| paultag | 19:39 * MarkDude is saving a shirt we make for Paul, Im sure he will wear it. | 00:42 |
| paultag | MarkDude: I would wear it :D | 00:42 |
| * MarkDude did know this but apprently forgot | 00:52 | |
| MarkDude | The channel being invite only thru me off. | 00:53 |
| MarkDude | Then again, Im already on Mozilla, Freenode, and Undernet- its been a while since I have done oftc- I added one more network. Next I redo this all with ZNC server | 00:54 |
| Unit193 | Do what I do, have several Irssi running on different servers. :P | 00:56 |
| Unit193 | I have Coldfront and Freenode networks in this one, OFTC and conformal in another, Freenode and Mozilla in another. :P | 00:57 |
| paultag | irssi can connect to a few networks | 00:58 |
| paultag | mine does :> | 00:58 |
| MarkDude | Yes I have been meaning to set up irssi for 2+ years | 00:59 |
| Unit193 | Mine does too, I just like to spread them out. :D | 00:59 |
| MarkDude | I have half of ZNC set up already | 00:59 |

| Unit193 | srandby: Hello! | 02:24 |
| srandby | Unit193: Hello. | 02:24 |
| srandby | I plan to be at the meeting on Thursday. | 02:24 |
| Unit193 | Great! Going to OLF? | 02:25 |
| srandby | Yes. | 02:25 |
| srandby | How does one enter this room from a non-browser client? | 02:27 |
| Unit193 | What client? Just open it up, connect to Freenode, and /join #ubuntu-us-oh | 02:28 |
| srandby | Every time I try, I get that the room is by invitation only. Using Pidgin. | 02:28 |
| Unit193 | #ubuntu-us-oh, or #ubuntu-us-ohio? | 02:29 |
| srandby | I'll check. | 02:29 |
| Unit193 | There isn't anything that'd block it from joining here, but -ohio isn't used. | 02:30 |
| srandby | I had #ubuntu-us-ohio for some unknown reason. | 02:31 |
| srandby | I'm going to leave the room, change my Pidgin settings, and reconnect. | 02:32 |
| Unit193 | OK. | 02:32 |
| srandby | Hello again. | 02:34 |
| Unit193 | Howdy, you made it! | 02:35 |
| skellat | Hello Scott Randby | 02:35 |
| srandby | skellat: Hello | 02:35 |
| srandby | I looked at the agenda for Thursday. What UbuCon is the agenda referring to? OLF? | 02:37 |
| skellat | srandby: Yep | 02:37 |
| skellat | We have space | 02:37 |
| srandby | Cool | 02:37 |
| skellat | I wrangled a commitment out of Moose | 02:37 |
| skellat | I need to get commitments from presenters | 02:37 |
| skellat | Or at least leads for presenters | 02:38 |
| srandby | What sort of presentations? | 02:38 |
| skellat | That's pretty open | 02:38 |
| skellat | And discussed at the last meeting | 02:38 |
| skellat | Lemme dig that up | 02:38 |
| skellat | Crap | 02:39 |
| skellat | Not in the last meeting notes | 02:39 |
| srandby | I looked at those awhile ago but didn't see it mentioned. However, I'm willing to submit an idea or two on Thursday. | 02:40 |
| skellat | Ah, the list of initial ideas is here: http://ohio.ubuntu-us.org/node/155 | 02:40 |
| jenni | [ Burning Circle Episode 121 | Ubuntu Ohio ] - https://j.mp/15EqB6P | 02:40 |
| skellat | There's a transcript to that where I have a bulleted list | 02:40 |
| skellat | GamingServer usage -- Flavor Highlights -- Highlights about finishing up Saucy Salamander for release -- Thoughts looking forward to the next Long Term Support release -- Reflections on the changes wrought by the virtual Ubuntu Developer Summit paradigm -- Ways we need to work within the cultures found in Ohio to expand Ubuntu deployment | 02:41 |
| Unit193 | srandby: You use Mainbuntu, right? | 02:42 |
| srandby | Unit193: I use Xubuntu. | 02:42 |
| Unit193 | \o/ | 02:42 |
| skellat | \o/ | 02:42 |
| srandby | Okay, I'm pretty new to IRC. What does \o/ mean? | 02:43 |
| skellat | My hands are raised and if this were in person I'd be jumping up and down cheering | 02:43 |
| Unit193 | \ is an arm, o is the head, and / is another arm, so it's a happy person. | 02:44 |
| srandby | Okay. I've been using Xubuntu for 2 or 3 years. | 02:44 |
| srandby | Unity drove me crazy. | 02:45 |
| skellat | I lack hardware that Unity supports | 02:46 |
| srandby | LOL | 02:46 |
| Unit193 | That, and I never really used it, I was never a fan of Gnome. | 02:46 |
| Unit193 | (I did have 6.10 or .04 installed, but that was the last one.) | 02:47 |
| srandby | The only thing that took me awhile to get used to was the lack of tabs in Xfce. | 02:47 |
| Unit193 | Tabs in Xfce? | 02:48 |
| Unit193 | Thunar? It has it now, and I use thunar and pcmanfm. | 02:48 |
| srandby | Sorry, Thunar. | 02:48 |
| skellat | thunar & pcmanfm have both grown quite a bit over the past few releases | 02:49 |
| srandby | I'm still using Xubuntu 12.04. | 02:49 |
| srandby | I haven't had time to update. | 02:50 |
| srandby | I need full disk encryption. | 02:50 |
| skellat | Nothing wrong with that. There is a documentation backport project underway to get some great offline documentation into 12.04. | 02:50 |
| Unit193 | Ah, I stick to current, while it may not be a good idea with my hardware, I can't stand stale applications. | 02:50 |
| skellat | I don't get into dealing with the sharp, pointy end of the development spearhead until we get closer to testing time | 02:51 |
| * skellat is using Xubuntu 13.04 at the moment | 02:52 | |
| srandby | I'd like to update to 13.04. | 02:54 |
| Unit193 | You'd have to go with 12.10, then 13.04. | 02:55 |
| skellat | Yeah | 02:55 |
| skellat | The Kubuntu folks talk about a single dist-upgrade jump method but Xubuntu doesn't support that | 02:55 |
| Unit193 | (Officially) | 02:56 |
| Unit193 | My system isn't really on the "supported" side of things anymore. | 02:56 |
| srandby | I'd rather do a fresh install. | 02:56 |
| Unit193 | Ah, cool. Makes sense, depending on the person. | 02:57 |
| srandby | But I have to study how full disk encryption works now. | 02:57 |
| srandby | Unit193: Old hardware isn't supported? | 02:57 |
| skellat | There was a colloquy about that in #xubuntu-devel earlier today | 02:58 |
| Unit193 | srandby: Heh, sure as heck doesn't seem like it, but I'm talking about held packages from precise/quantal, kernel from a non-Ubuntu source, and extra repos (own and all.) | 02:58 |
| Unit193 | That is, own repos and a couple others. (PPA and real repo.) | 02:59 |
| srandby | I'm not sure I understand, but I'm not a programmer or system admin. I'm just a user. | 03:00 |
| Unit193 | Hrm, I'm sometimes not good at being clear too. | 03:02 |
| srandby | skellat: Colloquy about full disk encryption? | 03:02 |
| skellat | Nope. Old hardware. | 03:02 |
| skellat | It seems like Mir/XMir is a push by Mainbuntu to make a lot of things obsolete. | 03:02 |
| Unit193 | (Really shouldn't get into a Mir argument here, though. :P ) | 03:03 |
| srandby | It all has to fit on a smartphone. | 03:03 |
| skellat | Yep | 03:04 |
| Unit193 | Pretty sure wayland does, or is intended on doing that. | 03:04 |
| srandby | And no Emacs (or vi) | 03:04 |
| skellat | But in many cases hardware is being made obsolete. I just had to move my BeagleBoard-xM to upstream Debian since desktop armhf support is being spun down. | 03:04 |
| srandby | This makes me wonder about the fate of Xubuntu. | 03:06 |
| skellat | Xubuntu is strong | 03:06 |
| Unit193 | Well, Xubuntu isn't geared towards "old" hardware, but Xfce isn't planning on Mir right now, no. | 03:06 |
| srandby | Good. It is hard for semi-technical people like me to change. | 03:07 |
| Unit193 | Same here. | 03:07 |
| Unit193 | My backup plan involves Debian, though. | 03:08 |
| srandby | I've thought about Debian too. | 03:08 |
| Unit193 | (Not sure pure Debian, or a handy setup like Siduction.) | 03:08 |
| Unit193 | You could see if XMir works on your system, of if it falls back to Xorg right now too if you'd like. :P | 03:10 |
| srandby | I have a Lenovo ThinkPad X230. What do you think? | 03:11 |
| srandby | Just added Siduction to my distro list. | 03:12 |
| Unit193 | Generally speaking, if it's intel graphics it has a shot in the dark. | 03:12 |
| Unit193 | AntiX is a nice lightweight one too. | 03:12 |
| skellat | If you have a spare USB key, Unit193 has an ISO you can write to it to take a shot with | 03:13 |
| Unit193 | skellat: Or, if you know how to install software, you can use grml-rescueboot. | 03:13 |
| srandby | I don't have time to experiment right now. | 03:14 |
| skellat | It's okay | 03:14 |
| Unit193 | Oh, sure. | 03:15 |
