[20:56] <mwhudson> morning
[21:03] <hads> I need to reinstall my desktop but I have work to do :(
[21:06] <hads> My goodness. I just found a workaround for some stupid bug I've been seeing for a year.
[21:07] <mwhudson> heh
[21:07] <hads> By reducing my memory to 8GB from 16GB I can run an apt-get update in mere seconds instead of 10 minutes!
[21:08] <mwhudson> er
[21:08] <mwhudson> that sounds fairly surprising :)
[21:08] <hads> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1107150
[21:08] <mwhudson> my 10 minute apt-gets were down to ipv6 confusion
[21:10] <mwhudson> wow that sounds grotty
[21:10] <hads> Indeed.
[21:11] <mwhudson> oh, running the 32-bit kernel?
[21:11] <hads> Yeah, this install is several upgrades old
[21:12] <mwhudson> i see why you need to re-install :)
[21:12] <ibeardslee> ++
[21:12] <mwhudson> you can crossgrade to 64-bit kernel, but it's a bit confusing
[21:12] <hads> Still, crappy bug.
[21:13] <mwhudson> i don't really know how it works on intel, but my understanding is that PAE is a hack ...
[21:13] <hads> I hear it's a hack too but, this is a regression, it used to work with an older PAE kernel.
[21:14] <hads> 3.2.0-52 or older work apparently
[21:16] <ibeardslee> on today's list for me is to upgrade an OSX Macbook Pro to Trusty
