m4gnusR2Pi2 are you *just* a Raspberry Pi?02:04
pleia2m4gnus: pretty much02:06
m4gnusHa! Yay!02:06
m4gnus>_>02:06
DonkeyHoteiof course not, it's a pi with an irc client!02:06
m4gnusDoes it do any tricks?02:09
DonkeyHoteiidk, it's her pi, not mine02:10
pleia2heh, no, it doesn't do any tricks, just brought it in a few times to /exec some info about the pi02:58
DonkeyHoteiwhat client is it running? i ask because prior to typing half this line, it didn't occur to me to ctcp version02:59
pleia2irssi03:00
DonkeyHoteii installed irssi on my first coin mining rig, which was already running headless with tmux, ubuntu of course03:08
DonkeyHoteiprecise, though03:08
ianorlinI only have irsii in my lxqt vm03:10
DonkeyHoteisecond rig is not secure and i don't want to expose it to the internet03:11
* ianorlin doesn't like mining crypto currency because of power03:11
DonkeyHoteiodd, my eeepc 900a running trusty froze on wake from suspend and when i force rebooted, the fonts got tiny-fied03:13
DonkeyHoteii can't read the unity menu bar03:14
DonkeyHoteii know i saw a font size control somewhere before, can't find it now03:35
DonkeyHoteipleia2: you're the expert03:36
ianorlinI would have ot reboot into my unity and not lxde to find it I don't remember off the top of my head03:37
DonkeyHoteiunity makes the most sense on a screen that size, plus, utopic will be touchscreen-friendly, and i've installed a resistive touchscreen on it03:38
nhainesUtopic is not planned to be toucscreen-friendly.04:13
nhainesIt'll be utopic+2 that'll have Unity 8, although utopic+1 should have a preview session.04:14
DonkeyHoteii was told otherwise in #ubuntu-touch04:14
DonkeyHoteiutopic+2? seriously?04:15
DonkeyHoteiand until then Win8 will be the sole touch-friendly OS when half the laptops at best buy have touchscreens?04:16
nhainesYup.04:29
nhainesAlthough to be honest, Unity 8 isn't planned to work any differently than Unity 7 on desktops, touchscreen or not.04:30
nhainesAnd in any case, no sense in breaking Unity for *everyone* just so a couple of people can have some extra touchscreen features a little earlier.04:31
DonkeyHoteithen ubuntu-touch MUST be installable on x8604:32
nhainesIt has been since April 17th.04:33
DonkeyHoteilast i tried, it required arm libs it couldn't get04:33
nhainesIn a fashion, anyway.  "Ubuntu Touch" isn't a thing that exists.04:33
nhainesYou'll want to install unity8-desktop-session-mir.04:34
DonkeyHoteii might try that on the netbook, will it care that the touchscreen is resistive?04:37
DonkeyHoteiand that the driver is for xorg?04:37
nhainesResistive touchscreen shouldn't matter.  Canonical isn't doing any development for X11, so you'll have to check with the community for Xorg stuff.04:38
nhainesOh, I misread the question.  If Mir doesn't run on your netbook, neither will Unity 8.04:42
DonkeyHoteii'm sure it will run in some fashion. i just don't know if it has the same touchscreen driver as xorg04:44
