BluesKaj"morning folks12:38
penguin42" hey12:52
bjsnideris anyone running xchat-gnome in unity?18:03
penguin42so +1 is Trusty? Trusty what?18:46
IdleOne!trusty18:46
ubottuUbuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) will be the 20th release of Ubuntu.  See the announcement at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1295 for more info.18:46
penguin42well, at least Tahr is easy to type as well18:47
penguin42hmm, I'd never heard of a Tahr18:49
BluesKajone wouldn't expect anyone to have heard of them , some obscure animal that hides out in the Himalayas , who knew ? :)18:55
* penguin42 wonders if they're tasty18:55
wilee-nileeeverything is better in a curry18:56
penguin42I didn't know about the ubuntu-distro-info command  for getting lists of versions18:58
BluesKajsome lil furry in a curry , not my taste'18:58
penguin42BluesKaj: The Tahr looks more substantial18:59
penguin42not that I curry18:59
BluesKaja rodent , penguin42 ?19:00
penguin42BluesKaj: No, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tahr19:00
penguin42ah yeh, it's a goat19:01
BluesKajnever eaten goat19:02
penguin42me neither, but I believe it's not uncommon19:02
BluesKajand I'm not a venison fan either19:02
BluesKajtasted rabbit once , bit it was a domestic white species , it was ok , all dressed up like chicken with lots of garlic19:04
BluesKajeveryone was oohing and awing about how good it was ...the taste went right past me19:06
alkisgHi, before trusty alpha1, how can I try it? Install 13.10 and change sources.list?19:07
* alkisg can't find any daily builds...19:07
penguin42bit eager aren't you?19:08
alkisgAs a dev, not as a user... :)19:08
penguin42does do-release-upgrade -d   do the trick yet?19:09
alkisgNo idea, I'm on 12.04 currently, looking for which CD to download for trusty19:12
penguin42alkisg: I think if you really want bleeding then install saucy and try a do-release-upgrade -d19:14
alkisgTy, will do19:14
penguin42alkisg: But I'm not sure if that's ready yet19:14
IdleOnetoolchian doesn't usually get uploaded until right after UDS19:18
IdleOneat this point changing the sources.list would do it, but there is nothing in the repos to upgrade to.19:19
IdleOneAll this is at your own risk of course19:19
alkisgAh, so that's the "Toolchain Uploaded" step in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule .... thanks!19:20
IdleOneright19:21
BluesKajthere's no point doing the release u-upgrade -d19:22
BluesKajerr release-upgarde19:22
BluesKajeither :)19:22
IdleOnealkisg: I feel I should give you another warning. You should do this on a machine/partition you don't need to be 100%19:22
BluesKajgotta change the sources list a this point and update and upgrade19:23
alkisgIdleOne: I was thinking about installing it to a dedicated partition that I have for that, but then I remembered the issue with the bricked intel NICs, some filesystem corruptions etc so I'll probably do it in a VM for now...19:26
IdleOnevm would be a safe place to play in19:26
penguin42yeh, do release-upgrade -d doesn't work yet19:28
alkisgAnother question, is BTRFS ready for non-mission-critical systems, or is it too early for it? /me could really use its snapshotting features...19:30
penguin42alkisg: I've got btrfs on an opensuse system, it's not doing badly just on my basic opensuse install - it does have one or two oddities19:30
alkisgpenguin42: at some point I was reading about fsck missing, is that still the case?19:31
penguin42alkisg: I don't think so but haven't needed it - the problem I hit is the default setting has some limit on the number of hardlinks somewhere that broke imagemagick, there is an option to fix it though19:32
alkisgThanks - I think there are only a few hardlinks on my usual ubuntu installation, so I don't think I'll hit that issue19:33
alkisgAs long as compression + snapshots are working, I don't mind about fsck too much either19:33
penguin42it was really more of an example of stuff that's not quite there yet19:33
* penguin42 wonders why virt-manager/qemu gives this new vm a 2360x1770 virtual display - a little big19:35
penguin42for my 1920x1080 monitor19:35
* alkisg prefers -vga vmware, gives a better default resolution19:35
penguin42yeh it seems to have defaulted to vmvga, I normally use spice19:36
BluesKajsudo sed -i 's/saucy/trusty/' /etc/apt/sources.list , will update the sourec.list to trust tahr , but like IdleOne mentioned , there isn't much there to upgrade to.19:40
BluesKajer trusty tahr19:40
alkisgMeh the "can't type english if I select the greek language" issue I reported 2 years ago is still there... :(19:45
bekksalkisg: Hmm, what do you expect "selecting a language with a totally different charset" to do instead?19:46
alkisgbekks: it broke with lightdm, it used to work fine from hoary to lucid19:47
penguin42bekks: Totally different is probably over expressing it for Greek?19:47
alkisgGreeks use alt+shift to switch between greek/english19:47
alkisgOtherwise we can't even surf19:47
alkisghttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/105128819:51
ubottuUbuntu bug 1051288 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "LightDM assumes there's only ONE system default layout" [High,Confirmed]19:51
alkisg...and 3-4 similar bugs a year before that one...19:51
bekkspenguin42: Greek doesnt use the same character set as english - so it is "totally different", I think :)19:56
alkisgIsn't Unity really really slow on VMs? I open the dash, type something, and have to wait for seconds before I see what I typed...19:58
alkisgWould enabling 3d acceleration in vbox help?19:58
bekksInstalling the guest additions will help20:00
penguin42alkisg: In KVM it's reasonably responsive - not speedy, but not that slow20:25
