| MooDoo | hello all | 05:58 |
| nigelb | Morning MooDoo | 06:01 |
| nigelb | Happy fake-Tuesday. | 06:01 |
| nigelb | erm | 06:01 |
| nigelb | fake-Monday | 06:01 |
| nigelb | proves the point, doesn't it? :) | 06:01 |
| jussi | morning all | 06:06 |
| jussi | is it just me or is chromium really messed up in 14.04 ? | 06:07 |
| nigelb | jussi: I heard popey talk about something similar with the latest chromium update. | 06:09 |
| jussi | nigelb: my backspace and delete keys don't work! | 06:09 |
| nigelb | ... | 06:10 |
| nigelb | that sounds fairly serious. | 06:11 |
| nigelb | I hope chromium isn't yet the default browser. | 06:11 |
| jussi | wait a sec, lets see if a restart of chromium helps... | 06:11 |
| Myrtti | on my Chromium on 12.04 I can do Google Hangouts just fine | 06:12 |
| jussi | Myrtti: yeah, but on 14.04? | 06:12 |
| Myrtti | but if I use the normal Chrome, whateverthehell version it is, it just prompts me back to installing the plugin | 06:12 |
| nigelb | My colleague, amusingly, can only do hangouts on Firefox. Doesn't work on Firefox. | 06:12 |
| Myrtti | over, and over, and over again | 06:12 |
| nigelb | Myrtti: Oh. Do you hvae the right architecture of chrome? (it happened to me with flash) | 06:13 |
| nigelb | 64-bit flash and 32-bit browser = no workey. | 06:13 |
| jussi | hrm, restart partially helped... it now only doesnt work *sometimes* .... | 06:13 |
| jussi | ... | 06:13 |
| Myrtti | jussi: sorry, I got an update last week that basically prevents my OEM laptop from upgrading to LTS | 06:13 |
| Myrtti | well, new LTS | 06:13 |
| nigelb | jussi: wtf | 06:13 |
| jussi | Myrtti: that sucks. | 06:14 |
| jussi | nigelb: yeah, weird as. everything working in chrome, so no idea whats going on | 06:14 |
| Myrtti | jussi: I don't really mind that much actually | 06:14 |
| Myrtti | OEM Ubuntu means the computer works | 06:14 |
| jussi | well, yeah, fair point | 06:15 |
| jussi | is it a dell? | 06:15 |
| Myrtti | yup | 06:16 |
| jussi | XPS13? | 06:16 |
| Myrtti | Dell Latitude E6430 | 06:16 |
| Myrtti | I did request XPS13 but it wasn't enterprise enough to pass the muster of the IT dept. | 06:16 |
| jussi | aww. | 06:16 |
| Myrtti | because cheap is obviously a sign it won't last | 06:17 |
| Myrtti | *rolleyes* | 06:17 |
| jussi | heh... | 06:17 |
| Myrtti | it would have been so nice and light to fly with... | 06:18 |
| Myrtti | *sigh* | 06:18 |
| jussi | Myrtti: I hear you | 06:18 |
| jussi | Ive an E4200 - getting a bit old in the tooth now, but still nice. | 06:18 |
| Myrtti | nigelb: yeah, the arch matches. I heard cz<tab> had similar issues with flash plugin last week | 06:19 |
| jussi | flash doesnt work on my home PC either (upgraded last week) despite me reinstalling it like 15 times... | 06:21 |

| jussi | nigelb: its april... :D | 08:50 |
| nigelb | jussi: My city is seeing 30+ every day :( | 08:51 |

| maps|wrk | cant access dropbox | 21:43 |
| diddledan | I'm leavin' on a jet plane, I don't know when I'll be back again. | 21:43 |
| maps|wrk | hmm this is incredibly slow | 21:43 |
| maps|wrk | wonder what its doing | 21:43 |
| maps|wrk | trying to mirror deb-i386 main | 21:43 |
| maps|wrk | changed motd to include local weather..not needed but i was bored | 21:46 |
| maps|wrk | :D | 21:46 |
| diddledan | maps|wrk: the archive is large! | 21:47 |
| daftykins | i would like for a local ISP to setup a mirror | 21:47 |
| maps|wrk | lol yea ididnt remove deb-src and it said 53gig id commented out most | 21:48 |
| maps|wrk | main alone for 13.04 is 8.9gig | 21:48 |
| maps|wrk | so on my blazing fast connection..hours :) | 21:48 |
| daftykins | my RAID was spitting sector repair errors again after i left, so i'm gonna have to get on replacing the funky disk | 21:50 |
| maps|wrk | be best to run it in a screen so i can reattach ? if i run it in the background with & how can i call it back? | 21:50 |
| diddledan | fg 1 | 21:50 |
| daftykins | the apt service? surely it's daemon-able | 21:50 |
| maps|wrk | hm,mm | 21:51 |
| maps|wrk | whats the diff between doing & and then callig it back and using screen? | 21:51 |
| diddledan | I'm not sure you can call it back once bash is terminated | 21:51 |
| maps|wrk | ah | 21:52 |
| maps|wrk | what could i run in bg tghen call back? tried nmap and it still jeept pumping out to stdout | 21:53 |
| daftykins | why would you run nmap other than as-and-when? :D | 21:54 |
| maps|wrk | just to see if i could call it back | 21:54 |
| maps|wrk | copuldnt think of anything else that would keep working | 21:54 |
| daftykins | irssi! | 22:02 |
| maps|wrk | that always seems hard to use | 22:03 |
| maps|wrk | isnt it like BX? | 22:03 |
| diddledan | I can't work irssi | 22:04 |
| diddledan | I like sidebars | 22:04 |
| maps|wrk | yea i struggle | 22:04 |
| maps|wrk | especially with multi channels in console text isnt it hard daftykins ? | 22:05 |
| diddledan | yeah multiple channels is the thing I have most trouble with in irssi, too | 22:05 |
| daftykins | i'm a noob with it, i've got my auto join channels setup and i just dance between them with alt+# | 22:06 |
| daftykins | my first PM comes up as alt+0, then after that i start doing /win xx | 22:06 |
| daftykins | XD | 22:06 |
| diddledan | I've got 12 channels open across networks | 22:06 |
| daftykins | but it does me well, it lets me reattach between computer so i don't reconnect messily all the time | 22:06 |
| diddledan | there's only 10 alt-able windows | 22:07 |

| maps|wrk | how did you run that afainst a remote server | 22:09 |
| maps|wrk | 116 windows?! over how many monitors | 22:09 |
| diddledan | I didn't, I ran it on my own copy which is a mirror of archive.ubuntu.com | 22:09 |
| diddledan | I need to fiddle with it a tad, it's nfs mounted right now >.< | 22:10 |
| daftykins | diddledan: do you consider that bad? | 22:11 |
| diddledan | daftykins: when the mirror is serving over the same connection the nfs is mounted, yes | 22:11 |
| diddledan | means that the maximum throughput would be about halved | 22:12 |
| maps|wrk | lol nice diddledan how long did it take to mirror that | 22:12 |
| maps|wrk | all im doing is mirroring deb-i386 main | 22:12 |
| diddledan | maps|wrk: from memory nearly 12 hours | 22:12 |
| maps|wrk | woah nice | 22:14 |

| gebbione | i m actually not sure of why the command is run that way, it is part of an instruction set to install symfony | 23:21 |
| diddledan | you're not using -M OR -X. the upper-case "X" permission I'm referring to is "-m u:`whoami`:rwX" | 23:21 |
| maps|wrk | hmm | 23:22 |
| diddledan | maps|wrk: how goes? | 23:22 |
| gebbione | changing the case for that x makes no difference | 23:23 |
| maps|wrk | so anyone able to help out ..i put a script in /usr/local/bin to basically do cowsay || fortune -- for the motd - then created a symlink ln -s for it in /etc/update-motd.d/91-welcome | 23:23 |
| maps|wrk | but nothing new shows on login? created a script in /usr/local/bin called weather and made a link same way ln -s 98-weather and that shows on login | 23:24 |
| diddledan | maps|wrk: wrong output channel? | 23:24 |
| maps|wrk | really confused, read the manpage and it says scripts get output in order | 23:24 |
| maps|wrk | not sure what you mean | 23:24 |
| diddledan | STDERR vs STDOUT | 23:25 |
| maps|wrk | all i did was call like fortune || cowsay -n | 23:25 |
| maps|wrk | should go to stdout ? bash ./usr/local/bin/welcome and it shows either on stdout | 23:25 |
| maps|wrk | i was looking at, https://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/741573-put-a-talking-cow-in-your-linux-message-of-the-day | 23:26 |
| maps|wrk | can you see if it works for you? | 23:26 |
| diddledan | did you use double || or single | ? | 23:27 |
| diddledan | remember there's a difference - you want to pipe the output of the fortune command into the cowsay command | 23:28 |
| maps|wrk | sorry meant | | 23:28 |
| maps|wrk | but it didnt work for me when logging in running the script manually worked tho | 23:29 |
| maps|wrk | can you try on yours? if it works for you ..gotta be something else on my piece of junk | 23:32 |
| daftykins | so what's trusty gone and done with Xorg.0.log in a live session? we booted it up on a friends laptop today whilst i was still in England | 23:38 |
| diddledan | maps|wrk: it works for me | 23:38 |
| maps|wrk | gah | 23:39 |
| maps|wrk | what did you do exactly? | 23:39 |
| diddledan | maps|wrk: I ensured to use full pathnames to the cowsay and fortune binaries (/usr/games/<wheeee>) and made sure that the file in /usr/local/bin was executable and had a #! line | 23:39 |
| maps|wrk | #!/bin/bash ? | 23:40 |
| maps|wrk | hmm | 23:40 |
| diddledan | yup | 23:40 |
| diddledan | or at a ping /bin/dash | 23:40 |
| diddledan | pinch** | 23:40 |
| diddledan | it took a couple logins to take | 23:41 |
| maps|wrk | hmm | 23:41 |
| maps|wrk | what did you call the file? and the link -s to what | 23:43 |
| diddledan | called it /usr/local/bin/cow | 23:44 |
| diddledan | and linked to /etc/update-motd.d/91-cow | 23:44 |
| maps|wrk | i messed with that file | 23:45 |
| maps|wrk | hmm | 23:45 |
| maps|wrk | failed to exec /etc/update-motd.d/10-stats: E | 23:45 |
| maps|wrk | now it seems to be working | 23:47 |
| maps|wrk | odd | 23:47 |
| maps|wrk | do we have to use exec or can you just call them diddledan ? | 23:50 |
| diddledan | I didn't use exec | 23:50 |
| maps|wrk | thanks | 23:50 |
