diploGuys, I want to remove qtcreator, best way ? apt-get remove qtcreator is passing back unmet dependencies. I thought I'd post here and google as well now12:16
diploHi all btw12:16
popeyapt-get autoremove qtcreator12:18
diplohah, google helped at the same time, thanks popey :)12:19
diploHmm, had to do a apt-get -f <rtn> ad then apt-get autoremove12:20
diploSeems to be working now12:20
bigcalmI'm tempted to do the same on my desktop. It's messed up updates a little12:21
diployeah same here, hmm doing an update/upgrade after is trying to reinstall now12:22
diplopurge after ?12:22
diploactually no it's just not removed all the plugins etc12:22
bigcalmMaybe it's because we're not using 13.10 yeat?12:22
diplomaybe12:23
kvarley-workUbuntu Server 12.10 - Having problems with getting Image Magick to convert a SVG to a PNG through PHP12:23
bigcalmyeat?12:23
bigcalmNice word12:23
kvarley-workResults in "Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ImagickException' with message 'no decode delegate for this image format"12:23
diplohttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/9586048/imagemagick-no-decode-delegate12:25
MartijnVdShttp://www.slideshare.net/reed2001/culture-179866412:25
diploWork on the CLI kvarley-work ?12:26
kvarley-workdiplo: I specifically need the PHP Imagick class to work. It's for a project that requires rendering of SVGs to PNGs12:26
MartijnVdSkvarley-work: can you put the code you're using up somewhere? There's probably some syntax error in an argument?12:29
jpds_kvarley-work: But have you checked that imagemagick works on the command line itself?12:32
diployeah that's what I was getting at, maybe imagemgick hasn't been compiled with that option ?12:33

DJoneswoot BBM for android to arrive on 21/9/13, perfect timing, the only person with a blackberry I know has just scrapped it and gotten a Galaxy S3 because the Blackberry was so bad, another app I can safely ignore18:20
popeyhah18:22
directhexblackberry have been *so bad* at reacting to market trends in time to come out on top18:24
directhexit's crazy18:24
DJonesProbably the only way to improve blackberry would be to opensource the software & let developers work on it rather than keep it locked up in a safe where nobody cares18:26
=== schwuk is now known as schwuk_away
directhexDJones, doubtful. you can't just toss source over the wall & expect a community to form18:27
ali1234yeah, just look at symbian18:28
ali1234they tried that - it didn't work18:28
DJonesI can't see it improving as it stands, so something off the wall might just make a bit of an improvement18:28
mgdmthey closed it off again, IIRC18:28
ali1234they closed it a few months before the microsoft deal that killed it entirely18:29

popeymore competition in the mobile space22:21
diddledanso they're actually positioning to compete against google now?22:21
popeylooks that way, but spun that they're not22:37
ali1234they're no more competing against google than samsung or htc are22:40
ali1234in fact until such time as they start selling hardware, significantly less22:41

ali1234urgh... how do i send ctrl-alt-f1 to a vm?23:48
ali1234with virtualbox23:49
ali1234ah... right ctrl f123:50
* AlanBell nods23:51
AlanBellhost key doesn't have to be right ctrl, but it normally is23:52
ali1234anyone know how to get the log from upstart user session init?23:52
ali1234setting the xsession manager to "/bin/sh -c 'init --user --verbose 1>>/tmp/out 2>>/tmp/err'" does not work :(23:52
ali1234maybe if i write a small c program that reopens stdout/stderr and then execs it23:54
ali1234the more i look at this upstart code the more appealing systemd seems :(23:55
