| mapps | hi all | 04:34 |

| manxuser | Listening to Teenage Dirtbag at 8am .. Morning all. | 07:46 |
| daftykins | XD | 07:47 |
| daftykins | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjUk3Bp16zs | 07:47 |
| daftykins | queue this one up | 07:47 |
| manxuser | ok ok .. | 07:47 |
| manxuser | I have to say .. if I had an imaginary b-friend .. he'd be called bennie. | 07:49 |
| manxuser | v.Eyes wide shut. | 07:49 |
| manxuser | Ghehe. | 07:49 |
| daftykins | heh | 07:50 |
| manxuser | Bennie .. off Eyes wide shut .. he's the dog who goes through cryo-stasis. | 07:51 |
| manxuser | But seriusly .. this the soundtrack of my life ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Femqf_Mel4U | 07:51 |
| daftykins | i love TEB | 07:52 |
| manxuser | tried to install Zorin OS last night .. just released 2 days ago . | 07:52 |
| daftykins | hrmm is that the Chinese one 0o | 07:53 |
| manxuser | can't get past the "creating user" thingy on the install screen .. but I have a terminal (oddly) ..thinkin' of a refund. | 07:53 |
| daftykins | nah probably elementary OS i'm thinking of | 07:53 |
| manxuser | elementary is the bountysourced one .. massively . | 07:54 |
| manxuser | can't stand a big menu window though .. | 07:54 |
| daftykins | what do you mean? | 07:54 |
| daftykins | bounty sourced makes me think of the great chocolate bar or kitchen towle | 07:55 |
| daftykins | *towel :> | 07:55 |
| manxuser | prob/ly a bettr link , but here goes .. https://www.bountysource.com/teams/elementary/bounties | 07:55 |
| manxuser | I'm just waiting for that nam film .. where the guys originally says .. | 07:56 |
| daftykins | 'love the smell of napalm in the morning' ? :P | 07:57 |
| manxuser | "'cos in every gook there's an American waiting to get out .. !" but you could angle in the word bounty into the meme somewhere .. | 07:57 |
| manxuser | My name is Nathan .. so it's.. | 07:57 |
| manxuser | "I lve the smell of Naython in the morning .. ahem." | 07:58 |
| manxuser | **love | 07:58 |
| manxuser | no one's about in the Zorin chat-room anyhow .. | 07:59 |
| manxuser | Wats good on telly at the moment ? | 08:00 |
| daftykins | i don't even have broadcast hooked up :) | 08:00 |
| daftykins | well, technically here's not the place for Zorin help, but if you're stuck on the user creation screen of an installer you could well have entered something it doesn't like | 08:01 |
| manxuser | eah .. chucked away my tele 3 years ago . I only liked Radio6 . oh Ok | 08:01 |
| manxuser | **Yeah | 08:01 |
| daftykins | things like not trying to use a capital letter in a username, mismatched passwords | 08:02 |
| daftykins | the usual things to trip up on | 08:02 |
| manxuser | It keeps doing it though .. I have a partiton that won't delete on Gparted. | 08:02 |
| manxuser | yes .. i didn't used a capital letter .. I could try again though .. | 08:02 |
| manxuser | bu t I have a terminal .. on the install screen .. couldn't I hack the system abit ? | 08:03 |
| daftykins | a disk not responding to a good nuking from a live session doesn't sound good | 08:03 |
| * manxuser awaits approval. | 08:03 | |
| daftykins | depends if installation continued or not | 08:03 |
| daftykins | i see no reason you couldn't chroot in and create a user manually | 08:03 |
| manxuser | no just a bit stuck thee . | 08:03 |
| manxuser | ok .. transfering to laptop in other room .. it's been installing all night .. or thats how i left it. | 08:04 |
| daftykins | it depends if it's an installer that's asking for the user config steps whilst in parallel, doing the actual file copy and package install etc. | 08:05 |
| manxuser | so what should i type then ? | 08:05 |
| daftykins | really depends what's happening on-screen | 08:06 |
| manxuser | package install has finished. | 08:06 |
| daftykins | !chroot | 08:06 |
| lubotu3 | A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 08:06 |
| manxuser | hang-on. | 08:06 |
| daftykins | follow that | 08:07 |
| manxuser | well over my head .. | 08:08 |
| manxuser | how do i install a package again ? | 08:09 |
| manxuser | It's not a command line .. its just a a screen that you can write into. | 08:12 |
| manxuser | oh . i need a webcam software for windows that just "works" now to show you a picture. | 08:14 |
| manxuser | #toilet-break | 08:14 |
| maps|wrk | this sucks | 08:20 |
| daftykins | wussat? day-shift maps? 0o | 08:20 |
| maps|wrk | my samsung laptop wont charge..think the dc jack must be broken=[ | 08:20 |
| maps|wrk | nah was just because mapps is the samsung laptop | 08:20 |
| maps|wrk | its gonna die in a bit and i cant charge it | 08:21 |
| maps|wrk | :(( | 08:21 |
| daftykins | d'aww | 08:21 |
| maps|wrk | yea | 08:21 |
| daftykins | does the brick have an LED to know which part it is? | 08:21 |
| maps|wrk | nah but like the power cable works in my samsung nc10 so if the cbales fine | 08:22 |
| maps|wrk | surely it has to be the power jack | 08:22 |
| maps|wrk | everything else works fine | 08:22 |
| daftykins | ah reet | 08:22 |
| daftykins | what model laptop is it? | 08:22 |
| maps|wrk | Samsung RV520 | 08:23 |
| daftykins | lots of jacks on ebay for a couple of quid ;) | 08:24 |
| maps|wrk | yea | 08:24 |
| daftykins | yip solder job then | 08:26 |
| maps|wrk | how hard does it look> | 08:27 |
| daftykins | easy to strip... but dunno, i don't solder | 08:29 |
| maps|wrk | hmnm | 08:29 |
| maps|wrk | Samsung NP-NC10 | 08:29 |
| maps|wrk | same as samsung nc10? | 08:29 |
| maps|wrk | seems to be | 08:29 |
| maps|wrk | my nc10 charger also stopped working lol | 08:29 |
| manxuser | http://imgur.com/79xASSk <-- That's as far as I have got .. anyways .. prob/ly not te best channel. | 08:32 |
| maps|wrk | what is it | 08:34 |
| manxuser | I was having a hat with daftkins about Zorin os 9 .. I thought I'd update him .. but just for the fun of it. | 08:36 |
| manxuser | **chat | 08:36 |
| daftykins | ah-har | 08:37 |
| === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte | ||
| daftykins | so what does the last text read? | 08:37 |
| manxuser | right hang-on .. | 08:38 |
| manxuser | Glib.source_remove(self.timeout_id) | 08:38 |
| daftykins | not a clue there. | 08:39 |
| manxuser | last line ... | 08:40 |
| daftykins | yeah but no idea on its' meaning | 08:40 |
| manxuser | GLib.source_remove(self.rows_changed_id) .. | 08:40 |
| manxuser | that's pretty much it. | 08:40 |
| manxuser | ... /usr/lib/ubiquity/frontend/gtk_components/nmwidgets.py:131 Warning Source ID 15449 was not found when attempting to remove it | 08:41 |
| manxuser | oh missed that one .. silly mirc. | 08:41 |
| manxuser | i ant scroll up either. | 08:42 |
| manxuser | **cant | 08:42 |
| manxuser | shall I try with a capital .. even though I'm 99% sure that I_did already ? | 08:42 |
| daftykins | thoughts... | 08:45 |
| daftykins | 1) restart and see what happens, booting from the HDD 2) discover chroot'ing from the live session of the media you installed from and create a user if there isn't one | 08:46 |
| daftykins | 3) just re-run the installer, nuke the disk and start again | 08:46 |
| manxuser | i tried 2) three times .. and I md5 checked the 7zip .. t's OK. | 08:47 |
| daftykins | by 7zip i assume you mean your downloaded ISO is associated with 7zip | 08:47 |
| manxuser | *** i tried 3) three times .. and I md5 checked the 7zip .. it's OK. | 08:47 |
| manxuser | Found this today ... http://imgur.com/gallery/050Gw2I | 08:48 |
| manxuser | ten dollars .. not bad .. http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/e5a7/?srp=1 | 08:50 |
| manxuser | plus $15 postage ;) | 08:50 |
| manxuser | I'm putting it into hibernation .. lets see if that works. | 08:54 |
| daftykins | nope :) | 08:55 |
| manxuser | it wont even do that anyway. | 08:59 |
| manxuser | Crumbs .. for $10 .. you'd think they'd have a call center. grumbles. | 09:00 |
| manxuser | so which is easiest on the wiFi settings then ? Lubuntu or Xubuntu ? (for a 2004 laptop) . | 09:06 |
| daftykins | probably equal | 09:06 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 09:13 |

| wikinoob | hi all | 10:51 |
| popey | hello | 10:52 |
| wikinoob | hi popey | 10:57 |
| wikinoob | soo empty here.. | 11:23 |
| daftykins | no it's not! look that's three of us already... | 11:23 |
| wikinoob | facebook kill the IRC | 11:24 |
| Myrtti | four | 11:24 |
| penguin42 | and a half | 11:25 |
| daftykins | facebook most definitely does not replace the purpose of this channel and network :P | 11:26 |
| wikinoob | i hate facebook. | 11:27 |
| wikinoob | some of you know about media wike? | 11:28 |
| wikinoob | wiki* | 11:28 |
| Myrtti | the software? who doesn't | 11:30 |
| daftykins | i don't. | 11:32 |
| wikinoob | i'm after fresh installation of media wiki. and i want to make categories for the pages | 11:33 |
| wikinoob | ? | 11:39 |
| wikinoob | someone? | 11:39 |
| daftykins | i'd bet they have documentation | 11:41 |
| wikinoob | daftykins: but it's not for the poor guy like me. | 11:43 |
| wikinoob | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Category | 11:43 |
| wikinoob | here^ | 11:43 |
| wikinoob | totally unreadable | 11:44 |
| wikinoob | daftykins: i'm trying to make a list of pages that belong to the same category. | 11:45 |
| wikinoob | lats say category "linux" and pages "commends" "installation" "kernel" will be under the same title | 11:46 |
| daftykins | i don't really see what brought you here to ask for help with that 0o | 11:46 |
| daftykins | but as i said above i have no experience with that. maybe one of this lot can help, or perhaps you could find a more relevant channel | 11:47 |
| wikinoob | the server run ubuntu | 11:47 |
| wikinoob | and this is the best IRC room :-) | 11:47 |
| daftykins | ¬_¬ | 11:48 |
| wikinoob | i'm not from UK but i love the country and the people on England | 11:49 |
| Myrtti | because #mediawiki doesn't offer any help? | 11:51 |
| Myrtti | what I'd do, and have done, is to go over to wikipedia, look for a page with categories defined in it, and see how it's done | 11:52 |
| wikinoob | yes i'm there more then day - but zero help | 11:52 |
| wikinoob | Myrtti: good idea! | 11:54 |
| Myrtti | innit. | 11:54 |
| popey | \o/ hot dog success | 11:59 |
| daftykins | i remember weekends as a kid, hot dogs every Sunday i think it was | 11:59 |
| popey | I remember when i was <7 my dad used to make home made burgers. I'd watch the dukes of hazzard in the front room on the sofa as a treat while eating them. | 12:07 |
| daftykins | :D | 12:34 |
| daftykins | popey: in colour? ;) | 12:37 |
| popey | hah, yes. | 13:34 |
| Gargoyle | Damn you, apparmor! | 15:06 |
| Gargoyle | Do people actually use it? | 15:06 |
| diddledan | Gargoyle: that sounds like a movie | 15:06 |
| Gargoyle | Over an hour lost because I thought it was me messing up my ansible scripts. | 15:07 |
| Gargoyle | There's probably a Liam Neeson meme somewhere. "I don't know what your problem is apparmor, but I'm going to find you and delete you!" | 15:16 |
| maps|wrk | daftykins, did you look at the vids? seems not too bad | 15:18 |
| maps|wrk | replacing the dc jack | 15:18 |
| penguin42 | any other UKers mind saying how their doctors prescription reorder system works? Mine is a really lousy web form that ends up emailing them where they type it back in (if it hasn't been caught by their spam filter) | 15:22 |
| diddledan | penguin42: that really is bad | 15:25 |
| diddledan | penguin42: I've not looked into how my docs do it | 15:26 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: What's your interface to ordering? | 15:27 |
| popey | Gargoyle: yes, we use apparmor _heavily_ on the phone | 15:27 |
| popey | its used as part of app isolation. | 15:27 |
| diddledan | penguin42: for my regular meds I somehow managed to get the pharmacy to take care of re-ordering | 15:27 |
| penguin42 | Gargoyle: If you think apparmour is hard, try setting up SELinux | 15:28 |
| Gargoyle | :/ | 15:28 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: Ah, yes I hear some of them do | 15:28 |
| Gargoyle | Is there someway I can find out why mysql is failing to install? Or does anyone have any experience with running it from a different data dir? I'm trying to change the dir before installation by having a config override already in /etc/mysql/conf.d/ | 15:36 |
| Gargoyle | Or should I just leave it to install normally, and then move the data? | 15:36 |
| penguin42 | you're getting an error of some type? | 15:39 |
| Gargoyle | dpkg: error processing package mysql-server-5.6 (--configure): | 15:40 |
| Gargoyle | subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 15:40 |
| penguin42 | oh that's inconvenient of it | 15:40 |
| Gargoyle | Probably related to how debian initialises the mysql data directories. | 15:41 |
| Gargoyle | I'll let it do a normal install and then relocate them after its finished. (Want to put data dir and log dir onto 2 different ebs volumes when I deplot to AWS) | 15:42 |
| Gargoyle | *deploy | 15:42 |
| penguin42 | Gargoyle: You should be able to see hte preinst script in /var/log/dpkg/info/mysql-something.preinst | 15:42 |
| penguin42 | or postinst | 15:42 |
| Gargoyle | Thanks penguin42. Not shedding much more light though. | 15:51 |
| diddledan | Gargoyle: you can keep the data dir in it's normal place and mount a different ebs volume in that place yannow? | 15:52 |
| Gargoyle | diddledan: I'm trying to standardise on /data1 and /data2 across all our servers. | 15:53 |
| Gargoyle | I'll let apt do a normal install, and then create a bash script which moves everything and created symlinks. | 15:54 |
| penguin42 | Gargoyle: http://elfstone.nl/2010/06/02/debian-packages-debugging-postinst/ ? | 15:54 |
| Gargoyle | penguin42: Oh, that might be helpful. | 16:00 |
| Gargoyle | If I hadn't just run "vagrant destroy" :P | 16:00 |
| Gargoyle | Just going to do this lot with a script. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22290655/change-mysql-data-directory-in-debian-7 | 16:02 |
| Myrtti | smile, you're on a screenshot, again | 16:04 |
| diddledan | :-D | 16:05 |
| Myrtti | I'm not too happy with the previous screenshot so I'm replacing it so there's less to blur out | 16:05 |
| diddledan | what are we screenshotting for? | 16:06 |
| Myrtti | I made the first irssi theme that supports 256 colours | 16:06 |
| diddledan | o..m..g | 16:06 |
| diddledan | the first evar?! | 16:06 |
| penguin42 | what colour am I? | 16:07 |
| Myrtti | it's horribly pink but I meant it more like proof of concept theme, not for general consumption | 16:07 |
| diddledan | we're entering 1990! | 16:07 |
| diddledan | :-p | 16:07 |
| Myrtti | diddledan: atleast first published one, it seems | 16:07 |
| diddledan | wow | 16:07 |
| Myrtti | the 256/24bit support is in the 0.8.17RC | 16:07 |
| Myrtti | penguin42: I'd say 6C | 16:09 |
| * foobarry wanders past | 16:09 | |
| * Myrtti waves to foobarry | 16:10 | |
| * foobarry nods awkardly | 16:11 | |
| Myrtti | brilliant. That doesn't have anything to blur out since I'm cloaked and popey is cloaked too. | 16:12 |
| Myrtti | there we go then | 16:26 |
| Myrtti | http://irssi-docs.wikispaces.com/Testing-new-irssi | 16:26 |
| popey | hm? | 16:26 |
| Myrtti | popey: you've set the topic the last in here so irssi displays who set it and what host you did it from. But you're cloaked so there's less to blur out from the screenshot | 16:28 |
| popey | hehe | 16:28 |
| Myrtti | I usually take the screenshots from here because the channel is publically logged and people speaking should at least in theory be aware of that | 16:29 |
| diddledan | yey I'm famous! | 16:37 |
| diddledan | I R SCREENSHOTTED | 16:37 |
| * penguin42 is infamous | 16:39 | |
| diddledan | penguin42: muahahaha | 16:39 |
| diddledan | </evil laugh> | 16:39 |
| Myrtti | penguin42: yeah, you were in the previous screenshot too | 16:43 |
| penguin42 | Myrtti: I'd think I'd have colour 42 or 2A | 16:44 |
| Myrtti | I have neither | 16:46 |
| diddledan | remember folks, www.youtube.com/watch?v=StTqXEQ2l-Y | 16:51 |

| Myrtti | deids: I don't do support in pm, and I'm not quite sure I could answer that question either way | 18:28 |
| deids | Myrtti: you know how to put command output into a variable in python? | 18:28 |
| Myrtti | nope. | 18:28 |
| foobarry | does anyone know a decent online UK tv guide that picks the best of the week's TV? | 18:33 |
| foobarry | by decent i mean interesting programmes rather than soaps etc | 18:33 |
| Myrtti | other than radiotimes.com? | 18:34 |
| foobarry | do they do a pick of progs for the week Myrtti ? | 18:36 |
| foobarry | i thought that would negate their point of existence | 18:36 |
| deids | facebook kill every irc channel :-( in 2009 the irc was full with nice people now it's all empty rooms, only ubuntu-uk live | 18:39 |
| Gargoyle | deids: Don't think that's true. | 18:41 |
| Gargoyle | I still recognose people from 10+ years ago. | 18:41 |
| deids | wligtenberg: i have 9 rooms open - here and ubuntu are the only live rooms. | 18:42 |
| foobarry | #ubuntu is busy | 18:43 |
| Gargoyle | Beer time... cya all! | 18:43 |
| === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte | ||
| penguin42 | deids: Yeh it's a bit quiet on most of the chat channels these days | 18:44 |
| deids | why? | 18:44 |
| foobarry | its saturday night and holiday season | 18:44 |
| foobarry | and irc generation grew up and had kids | 18:45 |
| foobarry | or are out socialising | 18:45 |
| deids | the best time to make your own cluster :-) | 18:45 |
| penguin42 | deids: But I suspect you're right about facebook and twitter etc that's the new kids | 18:45 |
| deids | all my frinds in facebook and twitter - i hate that. | 18:46 |
| deids | penguin42: anyway i'm build a cluster computer, i think it's nice and cool thing to do. | 18:47 |
| penguin42 | deids: Of anything useful? | 18:48 |
| deids | for the beginning - lerning how cluster work, but the main reason is 3d rendering | 18:49 |
| penguin42 | what hardware? | 18:50 |
| deids | 6 xeon cpus | 18:51 |
| penguin42 | 6 boxes, each with one? | 18:51 |
| deids | yes. | 18:53 |
| penguin42 | why use Xeons for that? | 18:53 |
| deids | i want to make an interface to monitoring the raid. | 18:54 |
| deids | i get them free so - no question | 18:54 |
| deids | penguin42: X3210 | 18:55 |
| deids | this is the model of the cpu | 18:56 |
| deids | 4 gb ram for node | 18:56 |
| penguin42 | oh well, if you've got a pile of CPUs | 18:56 |
| deids | 160 gb X 2 for node | 18:56 |
| deids | so 12 HDDs | 18:56 |
| deids | 24gb ram :-) | 18:57 |
| penguin42 | hmm 2.13GHz x 4 not too bad; by the time you've got 6 of those it'll be usefully fast - and keep you warm :-) | 18:57 |
| deids | 600W x12 | 18:58 |
| deids | but it not take that.. | 18:58 |
| penguin42 | where do you reckon on that? | 18:58 |
| penguin42 | I thought you had 6 of them? | 18:59 |
| deids | every server has 2 PS | 18:59 |
| deids | every PS is 600W | 18:59 |
| penguin42 | oh, those are your PS specs; why did you bother with 2 PSs in a cluster? | 18:59 |
| deids | the PS go in a drawerץץ | 19:00 |
| deids | the PS go in a drawer.. * | 19:00 |
| penguin42 | ? | 19:01 |
| deids | but the server dont take 600W | 19:01 |
| deids | the PS can give MAX 600W | 19:01 |
| penguin42 | but why bother with 2 PSs per server? | 19:02 |
| desid | it's redundancy | 19:03 |
| desid | if one PS die you have 2 | 19:03 |
| penguin42 | in clusters people normally rely on the redundancy of the machines in the cluster except maybe for the cluster management nodes | 19:03 |

| desid | i get them with 2 PS.. i dont complain :-) | 19:05 |
| penguin42 | desid: Yeh, you pay a premium for dual PS servers, and even then they don't normally require you to fit both | 19:05 |
| desid | penguin42: i get them free - i was garbage! | 19:06 |
| penguin42 | oh well, in that case | 19:07 |
| desid | penguin42: and the wife like it - so dont complain at all :-) | 19:08 |
| desid | she like blender. | 19:08 |
| penguin42 | haha | 19:09 |
| desid | i want to make a widget that show me the status of the raid. | 19:09 |
| desid | 12 old HDDs.. | 19:09 |
| penguin42 | yeh there's probably already something that can do that | 19:10 |
| desid | i make the widget | 19:10 |
| desid | but i cant understand how to take the output from bash and put it in to variable in python | 19:11 |
| * penguin42 isn't really a pythony person | 19:12 | |
| desid | you know some? | 19:14 |
| * penguin42 has only written a little and that was a while ago | 19:15 | |
| penguin42 | desid: https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#module-subprocess perhaps the subprocess command? | 19:16 |
| penguin42 | desid: Sorry, check_output ? | 19:16 |
| desid | thanks! | 19:17 |
| bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 21:16 |
| penguin42 | Good evening | 21:44 |
| popey | yo | 21:53 |
| bigcalm | ho ho | 21:54 |
