[02:25] vinny: picked a bad time for asking questions here. everyone is asleep [02:25] try in #ubuntu [07:26] Morning all. WTF has happened to 14.04? Since an update this morning the system has gone really sloooow. Compiz chewing up > 170% cpu, load avg > 4... Oh, and the sound applet in the top bar has disappeared too. [07:26] Happy days :-( [07:28] I don't know. I moved to gnome-shell so I don't have compiz running [07:28] TheOpenSourcerer, mine as well [07:28] Xorg using a fair bit of CPU as well [07:29] FFS [07:29] gnome smell seems to offer me a more consistant experience across all my devices [07:29] Can we still drop back to a lighter Unity desktop? [07:29] gnome-session-fallback might be useful [07:31] TheOpenSourcerer: I saw a comment by bigcalm that he'd had to reboot his desktop for some reason, don't know if that was the same, but I decided to hold off on updates last night [07:36] time to logout and try fallback [07:38] Not quite as pretty but it's working. Thanks [07:39] It's got that menu thing at the top too! Remeber that? [07:42] Now there's something called deja-dup-monito consuming 120% cpu? [07:42] presumably it's md5summing all the things [07:43] FFS - Seems like Ubuntu got something badly wrong in the last update. Great load avg no 7... :-( [07:44] Time to go and get a coffee and see if it calms down [07:46] Oh goody - all calm now [07:47] sometimes I do feel quite fortunate in the fact that Dell and Canonical have disabled upgrading to 14.04 for me [08:20] wonders why p-pey was on irc at 3.25am ..unless he is far west of UK === foobarry_ is now known as foobarry [08:23] morning foobarry [08:23] o/ [08:23] foobarry: the sun never sets on the empire! [08:25] Good morning all; happy Newspaper Carrier Day! :-D [08:25] can someone pls remind me how to add another nick in freenode ? [08:26] to join it to my current nick [08:26] foobarry, /msg nickserv help register [08:27] foobarry: Point 6 on this website http://www.wikihow.com/Register-a-User-Name-on-Freenode [08:27] foobarry, actually, I think you want group, not register. === foobarry is now known as foobarry_ === foobarry_ is now known as foobarry === foobarry is now known as foobarry_ [08:29] foobarry_, do /msg nickserv help [08:29] thanks, i got it === foobarry_ is now known as foobarry [08:30] was annoying because one chan doesn't let you change from nick2 to your current nick if it isn't registered [08:30] hmm .. lii [08:31] looking forward to getting a new laptop for the misses .. That will free up the 11 inch Mb Air for my Linux excapades [08:33] my boy has an open source scooter http://i.imgur.com/AHJ066q.jpg [08:33] another boy at the park took his stickers off so i gave him ubuntu sticker sheet [08:34] oooh .. those exist ? [08:35] yes. the "super" key on all my keybaords has the ubuntu key now [08:35] cool .. where can you get them ? [08:35] got mine free at an event [08:36] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/08/ubuntu-stickered-my-keyboard-finally-gets-ubuntuized [08:36] http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=718 [08:36] sorry first one is wrong link [08:36] good quality stickers [08:43] knightwise: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-uk/2014-August/037838.html Might be of interest as well [08:46] Thanx :) DJones ... looks like i'll have to send a stamped envelope i presume ? [08:46] knightwise: I would assume so, maybe drop them an email first [08:47] Not sure which stickers they have, so might be worth asking for a scan/image of them before ordering [08:47] morning boys and girls. [08:50] http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/09/04/ubuntu_14_10_betas/?page=2 [08:50] ☻ [08:51] i look forward to wallpapers of unicorns riding on rainbows [08:54] That Ubuntu Mate screenshot looks the spitting image of old gnome [09:02] didn't realise what a difference a poor scrollwheel makes [09:02] compute feels fast now === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [09:03] DJones: kinda the point ㋛ [09:13] hahah :) [09:13] Giant Dalek 'To Victory" poster arrived for the office :) [10:05] no yum installed on this centos server :( [10:09] foobarry: no they use a new tool now :) [10:11] foobarry: try pirut I think I'm pretty sure I saw something about it anyway [10:22] i think the person provisioning the server screwed up [10:23] will have to rpm -i yum.rpm [10:28] Need sqlite and python-sqlite from memory foobarry [10:28] in case they're not installed [10:29] "think i will delegate [11:16] Good morning peeps :) [11:19] * penguin42 yawns at bigcalm [11:29] bigcalm: morning how did it go last night? [11:30] davmor2: went well. Me, Ron, Alex, Chris, Ad, Simon & Sam. And we talked about Linux things all damn evening [11:30] I think that's pretty rare [11:31] adam was there and you talked about Linux that must be a record [11:31] hmm.. i'm gonna try to see if i can install OSX in a virtualbox VM .. on a Mac Mini running Ubuntu. [11:35] knightwise: not easily. virtualbox has no usable efi implementation, which makes installing osx tricks [11:38] Also, does OSX have any drivers for the virtual devices? [11:38] I thought part of the charm of OSX was that it only works on Mac hardware by design [11:38] Which means it has a limited pool of device drivers [11:39] vmware fusion, and parallels, can both virtualise osx on osx [11:40] Presumably by just using the thinnest of shims on the real hardware [11:40] ah but that is the kick .. it IS running on mac hardware , [11:40] but the host os is linux instead of osx === lubotu3` is now known as lubotu3 [11:41] Don't know enough about BSD vs Linux driver interfaces [11:41] But I'm guessing they might be different [11:42] And no idea if VBox makes any attempt to replicate the hardware you're sat on - AFAIK it has a selection of emulated hardware that looks like common devices === triple-clones is now known as tripleclones === tsimpson_ is now known as tsimpson [12:04] I hate all CMS'es. That is all. [12:05] +1 [12:06] I think virtualbox should run OSX now? at least in Oracle's version, I can't say for OSE [12:06] (but when it gives you the choice between osx-32bit and -64bit, never select 32bit. It goes horribly wrong. imho that option shouldn't exist) [12:08] (10.6 is the last version that'll run on a 32bit processor. 10.7 is the first version that'll run in a VM without an osx-server licence. the combination of these two isn't pretty) === Gargoyle_ is now known as Gargoyle [12:12] shauno: does that mean I'll be able to run OSX in virtualbox? [12:29] OSC can't run on AMD CPUs though, right? [12:30] *OSX [12:36] SuperMatt: I believe so, yes [12:42] Myrtti: WP not fitting the bill? It's what I used for my wedding site [12:42] bigcalm: might, I haven't looked into how the multi language support goes nowadays though [12:43] Myrtti: apparently WP is really quite mature now. ML support is good [12:43] if dsample weren't adamant on his demand on having the site in Finnish, I'd just slap the whole thing on Google Sites and call it a day [12:43] Heh [12:43] Aww, you not doing Sweedish as well? [12:43] what I specifically don't have time and patience for is to wait for him to code a thing with Ruby from scratch [12:43] Ugh [12:44] because ain't nobody got time for that [12:44] Use WP ;) [12:44] the website issue is basically the reason why the wedding planning had a two year hiatus as is [12:44] I started writing my own photo booth application in python. It got abandoned and I ended up using an app on an android tablet [12:44] I got frustrated in trying to get things first the way I wanted it, then gave up when I realised it would never be good enough for him [12:44] o.O [12:45] app on an android tablet? [12:45] please tell me more. [12:46] Um, one mo [12:46] Myrtti: I used this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.groundupworks.partyphotobooth&hl=en_GB [12:48] ah right. [12:48] D might whip up something with a Raspberry Pi and a Canon camera that can be controlled with gphoto2. [12:50] Hehe [12:50] That's exactly what I wrote [12:50] He's welcome to carry on with what I started [12:50] do you have it in github? [12:50] or somewhere? [12:50] Myrtti: https://github.com/bigcalm/python_photo_booth [12:50] ha! [12:51] The idea is that you have a webcam for lining up the shot and then a DSLR for taking a good photo [12:52] I might nag him into looking that today [12:54] I found that the RPi wasn't powerful enough to give a responsive user experience. But the touch screen I bought works with a laptop with HDMI and USB. [12:54] Still didn't have the energy to finish it in time, hence the android app [12:54] When is the wedding? [12:55] If I don't have a total meltdown before it, at the moment it looks like February [12:56] started looking at venues and celebrants and photographers two weeks ago. [12:57] anyone here who have virgin media as their ISP and know about download/legal issues? I could do with your help. :) [12:58] venue will confirm which of the two possible weekends it might be in February, photographer and celebrant already confirmed both are ok. [12:59] well, that was... patient [13:00] Our photographer was Tony Whitmore. His availability dictated when we got married :) [13:01] Having three quarters of the Ubuntu Podcast at our wedding was fun [13:01] hehe, yeah, we'll probably get the guy who did my mums funeral photography (yes it's a thing in Finland) [13:03] Goodness [13:03] I guess they don't need to be that good at action shots [13:05] he's actually pretty good for what I can see. People seem to have always had photos taken at funerals (any family occasion, really) so we got a photographer to take some photos so the people wouldn't need to do it themselves. [13:05] my cousin mucked that idea up by blocking the paid cameraman while taking photos with her small pocket point and shoot though, on a few shots :-| [13:08] http://tommikappi.com/portfolio/dokumentaarinen_haakuvaus/ [13:12] how do i ask dnsmasq what dns server it is using? [13:14] I think you might need to bribe it [13:14] I hear it's partial to neopolitan icecream [13:14] i have haribo [13:14] that might work [13:14] I can't guarantee anything though [13:17] ooh haribo [13:18] 72p atm in sainsburys [13:19] my son wants this for chrimstas http://www.instructables.com/id/8-Bit-Mario-Blanket-Made-from-Granny-Squares/ [14:03] ooooohhhh http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/multi-device-keyboard-k480 [14:04] looks like a z88 === feisar_ is now known as Guest13496 === deegee is now known as drussell === jadel is now known as nathphil === deegee is now known as drussell === root is now known as Guest34019 === io is now known as IdleOne === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away
