[01:02] <TRPrecht> Greetings. 
[01:02] <belkinsa> o/ TRPrecht
[01:06] <TRPrecht> Is the Ohio LoCo pretty active? or are there relocos in Ohio that are pretty active?
[01:06] <belkinsa> We are very, very inactive and our ReLoCos don't exist anymore.  But you are welcome to try to start one up.  Where do you hail?
[01:07] <belkinsa> We only have 2-8 active members online but not really in person.
[01:07] <belkinsa> We are scattered and makes the problem greater.
[01:08] <TRPrecht> Ah.  I'm actually in KY but I see Cincinnati out my window. 
[01:09] <belkinsa> Ah.  I'm also from the Greater Cinny area myself.
[01:10] <TRPrecht> I've been looking for a lug/loco for a couple years now, I've seen that there were at one time many groups in the area and they all seem to have gone dark. :-/
[01:12] <belkinsa> I see, I think most of the LUGs and LoCos of USA are dying or are dead.  Ohio is one of the few who is still trying to be active.
[01:12]  * belkinsa shouldn't said "I think"
[01:12] <belkinsa> It's a truth.
[01:13] <TRPrecht> KY's is still somewhat active, but it is about 2 hours away and they meet on a weekday.. thus no go.  Unless I can leave work in Springdale and shoot striaght to Lexington and hope for no traffic. LOL
[01:14] <Unit193> TRPrecht: I know a few people do some stuff in some LUGs, guy not far from me goes to the Akron LUG as they have active, informative meetings.
[01:14] <dzho> hackerspaces and makerspaces seem to be a slightly more current thing, and depending on the space, sometimes attract those with free software sympathies or inclinations
[01:15] <belkinsa> KY is?  Hm, never knew that.  If you have friends who are seeking a group, we could start a ReLoCo for the Greater Cincinnati area.
[01:15] <dzho> TRPrecht: so, covington?
[01:15] <TRPrecht> Yeah, they meet once a month to every other month. 
[01:16] <belkinsa> dzho, or Newport.
[01:16] <TRPrecht> dzho: pretty close. Fort Mitchell actually. 
[01:16] <TRPrecht> Grew up in Newport though.  
[01:17] <dzho> oh, neat, I see US42 goes on through there
[01:17] <belkinsa> I thought 42 was just a state route, or is this a different one?
[01:17] <TRPrecht> I've got some friends that like/use Ubuntu or Arch and they are pretty geeky, however they draw the line at the concept of a LUG. say its too geeky. :-/ lol
[01:18] <dzho> heh

[01:18]  * dzho has got to go make sure bedtime is happening
[01:19] <dzho> TRPrecht: nice to see  you drop in.
[01:19] <dzho> belkinsa, Unit193 will see you around
[01:19] <belkinsa> Slaapwel, dzho
[01:19] <TRPrecht> nah, US42 runs a LONG way.  I can get to pretty far south on it and up to my work north of Cincy.
[01:19] <drkokandy> howdy all
[01:22] <TRPrecht> Without being a developer, or a graphic artist, it seems like it is very difficult to 'get involved' in supporting a project...other than financially... which I guess can be hard too at time. :-)
[01:23] <TRPrecht> Its a hard clique to crack. lol
[01:23] <Unit193> TRPrecht: Indeed, nice to have you drop in.  If you don't mind me asking, what do you use?
[01:24] <belkinsa> It is, but you can do it with the skills you have.  Spearding the word is one.
[01:24] <TRPrecht> Ubuntu on my System76 machine... and I use my dinky laptop to test out various distros. 
[01:25] <Unit193> drkokandy: And howdy!  Just mentioned you, though not by name. :)
[01:25] <belkinsa> o/ drkokandy as I forgot to say hey to you
[01:25] <drkokandy> Oh, yeah? hopefully good things Unit193 - my intenet died earlier this afternoon apparently so my IRC's been down
[01:25] <drkokandy> o/ belkinsa
[01:25] <drkokandy> been awhile!
[01:27] <drkokandy> TRPrecht: I've missed most of this conversation, but Ubuntu has a tool called find-a-task that might help you see just what options are out there: http://community.ubuntu.com/contribute/find-a-task/
[01:27] <jenni> [ Ubuntu Community | Find a Task ] - https://j.mp/1GdwRIm
[01:27] <belkinsa> drkokandy, thanks for sharing that link!  I would of if I wasn't working on my homework.
[01:27] <drkokandy> That helped me see what options are available... I'm neither a developer nor a graphic designer, but I was able to get started with bug triage & QA testing
[01:28] <Unit193> drkokandy: Yes, that you have found a nice LUG in Akron.
[01:28]  * belkinsa started with Ubuntu Women
[01:28] <drkokandy> oh, good luck with your homework, belkinsa - probably midterms, right?
[01:28] <Unit193> https://sigma.unit193.net/dump/find-a-task-fix.user.js :P
[01:28] <drkokandy> oh, yeah! I haven't been to ALUG in a little while, but I should be able to make it this week
[01:29] <belkinsa> Yes, but I only have one this week.  My bioinformatics one was last week but I still have the takehome part of it to do.
[01:29] <drkokandy> find-a-task-fix.js... is there something broken with find a task?
[01:29] <belkinsa> I'm trying to gain time for this week by finishing the rest for my other classes to study for the midterm and do the takehome.
[01:30] <drkokandy> good plan belkinsa - good luck!
[01:30] <belkinsa> Thanks.
[01:30] <TRPrecht> Nice, thanks for the link. I've been slowly converting people since a former coworker got me started in this direction with Gusty.
[01:30] <Unit193> drkokandy: Perhaps take a look at the page with and without that?  I didn't create it, but tend to agree with the thought of the person that did.
[01:31] <belkinsa> TRPrecht, why isn't KY's LoCo not verflied?
[01:31] <TRPrecht> I dual booted for years.... but finally got my last hold out application running under wine... been linux only at home for ~2 years
[01:31] <belkinsa> s/verflied/verified
[01:31] <jenni> belkinsa meant to say: TRPrecht, why isn't KY's LoCo not verified?
[01:33] <TRPrecht> Unknown... during my search I found the Bluegrass LUG page and on there is said they had merged and went with the Bluegrass name instead of staying Ubuntu KY LoCo?
[01:34] <Unit193> Fun fact, Xubuntu's technical lead is from KY.
[01:34] <drkokandy> ah I see
[01:35] <belkinsa> TRPrecht, hm, isn't that against the rules having a LoCo without the Ubuntu part in the name?
[01:35] <TRPrecht> Nice.
[01:35] <Unit193> drkokandy: Laying out all your choices just seems like a better idea to me.
[01:36] <TRPrecht> I think so... 
[01:36]  * belkinsa wishes skellat was here
[01:37] <TRPrecht> ah http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2060028 is where I saw where they were aka Bluegrass LUG

[01:38] <TRPrecht> almost 3yr old post... one of the most recent. lol
[01:38] <belkinsa> But that was three years ago, well, under three.
[01:38] <belkinsa> That's tells me that it's an inactive one.
[01:38] <belkinsa> s/That's/That
[01:38] <jenni> belkinsa meant to say: That tells me that it's an inactive one.
[01:39] <TRPrecht> They are on Google+ as BlueGrass Linux User Group and are (semi) active under that name only. 
[01:39] <belkinsa> Isn't a mixed group in terms of distro useage?
[01:43] <TRPrecht> Quick look at the G page shows more talk about *insert fruit* Pi projects and cloud solutions more times than not.... scrolled a while to find a distro and it was Xubuntu
[01:43] <belkinsa> May I have the link to that page?
[01:46] <TRPrecht> Sure.

[01:46] <TRPrecht> BRB, going to get food for the wife while she takes care of the fussy baby. 
[01:47] <belkinsa> Alright, see you around.  Nice to meet you.
[01:49] <belkinsa> Anyways, it's bed time for me.  Night everyone.
[01:49] <drkokandy> night
[01:50] <drkokandy> I'm going to need to blow away my desktop... something went wrong with an update & even apt-get -f install isn't working :(
[01:51] <drkokandy> maybe it can be fixed, but I don't have time
[01:51] <Unit193> Oh dear.  What's the error(s)?
[01:52] <drkokandy> seems like something pretty serious
[01:53] <drkokandy> linux-headers-generic : Depends: linux-headers-3.13.0-46-generic but it is not installed
[01:53] <drkokandy> If I try -f I get
[01:55] <drkokandy> oh, can't generate it now
[01:55] <drkokandy> but it's something about a disk full error (no disk is full)
[01:56] <Unit193> Was wondering if outdated sources or proposed enabled, in that case I'd make sure /boot/ wasn't full or filling, and remove all but the latest functioning kernel.
[02:06] <drkokandy> tried autoremoving lots of old kernels, but same result - paste.ubuntu.com/10509461
[02:06] <drkokandy> er http://paste.ubuntu.com/10509461
[02:06] <jenni> [ Ubuntu Pastebin ] - https://j.mp/1GdF5jG
[02:09] <drkokandy> /usr/src is getting pretty big (this is an old installation & has a lot of cruft), but not full... All the important data is on other (non-boot) disks, so I really am tempted just to blow this parition away and start fresh
[02:10] <drkokandy> In addition to this error with apt-get, my dual monitors are now mirrored (but Unity doesn't realize there are two monitors anymore) and all visual effects are way slower than ever before
=== TRPrecht is now known as TRP
[02:25] <TRPrecht> Ah, much better with an IRC client. :-0
[02:27] <Unit193> Hah, yeah webchat is decent enough, but quassel is a bit better, more so if you're using quassel-core. :P
[02:31] <TRPrecht> oh? i have't used anything other than xchat...
[02:31] <Unit193> Oh?  Looked like you were/are using Quassel. :P
[02:31]  * Unit193 uses Irssi anyway. :P
[02:32] <TRPrecht> I meant prior to just installing quassel.
[02:32] <TRPrecht> first time using it. I like it better than xchat for sure. lol
[02:34] <drkokandy> Quassel is my client of choice
[02:40] <Unit193> Quassel as a graphical client isn't the best, but because of the client/core relationship, it gets a few extra points.
[02:46] <TRPrecht> Once again I thank who shared the link for the find a task. . . So far I'm crusing the advocacy option and on spread ubuntu site... seems like it needs some TLC.
