[02:04] <m4gnus> R2Pi2 are you *just* a Raspberry Pi?
[02:06] <pleia2> m4gnus: pretty much
[02:06] <m4gnus> Ha! Yay!
[02:06] <m4gnus> >_>
[02:06] <DonkeyHotei> of course not, it's a pi with an irc client!
[02:09] <m4gnus> Does it do any tricks?
[02:10] <DonkeyHotei> idk, it's her pi, not mine
[02:58] <pleia2> heh, no, it doesn't do any tricks, just brought it in a few times to /exec some info about the pi
[02:59] <DonkeyHotei> what client is it running? i ask because prior to typing half this line, it didn't occur to me to ctcp version
[03:00] <pleia2> irssi
[03:08] <DonkeyHotei> i installed irssi on my first coin mining rig, which was already running headless with tmux, ubuntu of course
[03:08] <DonkeyHotei> precise, though
[03:10] <ianorlin> I only have irsii in my lxqt vm
[03:11] <DonkeyHotei> second rig is not secure and i don't want to expose it to the internet
[03:11]  * ianorlin doesn't like mining crypto currency because of power
[03:13] <DonkeyHotei> odd, my eeepc 900a running trusty froze on wake from suspend and when i force rebooted, the fonts got tiny-fied
[03:14] <DonkeyHotei> i can't read the unity menu bar
[03:35] <DonkeyHotei> i know i saw a font size control somewhere before, can't find it now
[03:36] <DonkeyHotei> pleia2: you're the expert
[03:37] <ianorlin> I would have ot reboot into my unity and not lxde to find it I don't remember off the top of my head
[03:38] <DonkeyHotei> unity makes the most sense on a screen that size, plus, utopic will be touchscreen-friendly, and i've installed a resistive touchscreen on it
[04:13] <nhaines> Utopic is not planned to be toucscreen-friendly.
[04:14] <nhaines> It'll be utopic+2 that'll have Unity 8, although utopic+1 should have a preview session.
[04:14] <DonkeyHotei> i was told otherwise in #ubuntu-touch
[04:15] <DonkeyHotei> utopic+2? seriously?
[04:16] <DonkeyHotei> and until then Win8 will be the sole touch-friendly OS when half the laptops at best buy have touchscreens?
[04:29] <nhaines> Yup.
[04:30] <nhaines> Although to be honest, Unity 8 isn't planned to work any differently than Unity 7 on desktops, touchscreen or not.
[04:31] <nhaines> And 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.
[04:32] <DonkeyHotei> then ubuntu-touch MUST be installable on x86
[04:33] <nhaines> It has been since April 17th.
[04:33] <DonkeyHotei> last i tried, it required arm libs it couldn't get
[04:33] <nhaines> In a fashion, anyway.  "Ubuntu Touch" isn't a thing that exists.
[04:34] <nhaines> You'll want to install unity8-desktop-session-mir.
[04:37] <DonkeyHotei> i might try that on the netbook, will it care that the touchscreen is resistive?
[04:37] <DonkeyHotei> and that the driver is for xorg?
[04:38] <nhaines> Resistive touchscreen shouldn't matter.  Canonical isn't doing any development for X11, so you'll have to check with the community for Xorg stuff.
[04:42] <nhaines> Oh, I misread the question.  If Mir doesn't run on your netbook, neither will Unity 8.
[04:44] <DonkeyHotei> i'm sure it will run in some fashion. i just don't know if it has the same touchscreen driver as xorg
