[11:55] <Neo31> melodie, where do u live ?
[11:56] <melodie> Neo31 south west France
[12:09] <melodie> Neo31 are you working in computing?
[12:10] <melodie> Kilos for your install of Bento, I think you might appreciate an "anti-swapping" file. I have seen in one of my installs it is missing, so what do you think? does the kernel do any swapping?
[12:11] <melodie> I am talking of unnecessary swapping, when it starts using the swap disk long before the ram is filled
[12:11] <Neo31> yes i do melodie
[12:11] <Kilos> i dont know melodie  been too busy to even use it
[12:12] <melodie> Kilos ok, if you need one, you'll tell me, it's online
[12:12] <Neo31> Linux, Drupal and FLOSS related to drupal dev :)
[12:12] <melodie> Neo31 with linux distros?
[12:12] <Neo31> ys
[12:12] <melodie> oh ! Drupal, my respects
[12:12] <Neo31> yes
[12:12] <Neo31> :)
[12:13] <Kilos> ty melodie
[12:13] <melodie> I keep myself happy with WordPress and related tips and tricks, I can't do Drupal. :)
[12:13] <Neo31> what about u melodie ?
[12:13] <Neo31> WordPress is quick and does the job for most of the cases :)
[12:13] <melodie> I help users, as a freelancer but working with kind of an umbrella company (the French kind)
[12:13] <melodie> Neo31 yes, this is quite true
[12:13] <Neo31> i see
[12:14] <melodie> Neo31 I do Bento Openbox, for them and for the buddies on the web:
[12:14] <melodie> https://launchpad.net/bento-dev
[12:14] <melodie> and some pics here: http://linuxvillage.org/en/
[12:15] <Neo31> that's cool melodie
[12:15] <Neo31> yep i have just checked on launchpad and github :)
[12:15] <melodie> ok
[12:15] <Neo31> bravo ;)
[12:16] <melodie> there is still a lot to do
[12:16] <melodie> it's used, usable, but needs more improvements
[12:16] <melodie> and documentation too
[12:17] <melodie> wondering what to do first for the next steps, docs maybe?
[12:18] <melodie> Neo31 do you work for a company or on your own?
[12:19] <Neo31> i guess some wiki pages would be great
[12:19] <Neo31> I work for a company
[12:22] <melodie> we do have a wiki, http://wiki.linuxvillage.org
[12:22] <melodie> I just thought I need to upload a full blown version first, up to date and with one or two more tweaks in it
[12:23] <melodie> I have done one at home, which I can improve before releasing, as I have installed it to a laptop and used it a little
[12:23] <melodie> a Trusty 14.04.2
[12:29] <Neo31> u know what I think melodie !
[12:29] <melodie> I don't, so, please tell me
[12:29] <Neo31> we always give less importance to documentation and marketing stuff in the Linux world
[12:30] <Neo31> we make awesome stuff but many doesn't hear of it
[12:30] <melodie> I don't, but it's a huge task which I am not in a hurry to start
[12:30] <elacheche> Hello!
[12:30] <melodie> hello elacheche !
[12:30] <Neo31> I think you should work on the documentation eventhough the project is not perfect yet and ask friends to blog about it!
[12:30] <elacheche> you're good?
[12:30] <elacheche> Neo31, ;)
[12:31] <Neo31> then ppl will be following the project and you finish the last awesome stuff :)
[12:31] <Neo31> hmd elacheche :)
[12:31] <Neo31> i'm fine
[12:31] <Neo31> u?
[12:31] <melodie> elacheche tired but happy, because I have given a 2 days linux administration course to a guy who takes care of a non for profit association (5 people employed)
[12:31] <elacheche> OK..
[12:31] <melodie> related to Africa and ecology
[12:32] <elacheche> Cool .. Good luck melodie
[12:32] <melodie> have given them 4 of the 10 hard drives that phillw has offered to me, and put some Linux Mint recent, up to date, tweaked and well configured on them
[12:32] <melodie> elacheche done, the contract is over, and he might call me back for more next autumn
[12:33] <melodie> and tought him one install method which isn't talked a lot about:
[12:33] <melodie> once you have your system well configured and ready for deployement, you can attach a second hard drive to the machine with an empty partition table, and just do "copy/paste" of the partitions using gparted in a live usb or live cd
[12:34] <melodie> neat and fast
[12:34] <melodie> once done, chroot, install grub and go.
[12:34] <melodie> \o/
[12:34] <Neo31> perfect elacheche :)
[12:34] <melodie> I have not had the opportunity to test udpcast yet... needs space
[12:34] <Neo31> that's related to ur job or on free time ?
[12:35] <melodie> well, that was an extra which I offered their association, while I was teaching how to manage the linux system
[12:35] <melodie> we did some hardware too
[12:35] <melodie> basic
[12:36] <melodie> I prepared the hard drives at home between the two days course, and tought him how to do the same thing on an extra drive they had
[12:37] <melodie> it had to be organized in such a way that we would do all that needed to be done in a very short time
[12:38] <melodie> so starting with the machine that didn't work anymore at their place, we cleaned the dust away, I changed the thermal paste, we changed the ram, then I fired one of the 4 hard drives prepared at home: the machine was working again.
[12:38] <melodie> once I was sure it was working, I pulled the 3 other drives from the box and explained the idea to him : surprise ! :D
[12:39] <melodie> they have other machines with some Linux Mint of an older version which need to be renewed : he can now migrate them all one by one without pain.
[12:39] <elacheche> melodie, association en Afrique ou France?
[12:39] <melodie> that's the trick
[12:40] <melodie> they are in France, work in France and when the have earned enough they go for a mission in Africa. Mali mostly as I understood
[12:40] <melodie> they teach how to make ovens for the cooking, that burn less wood, and things such as that
[12:40] <melodie> can I past the link to their website here?
[13:28]  * Neo31 going out
[17:36] <Kilos> hi Guest22613  lol you lost your nickname again
[17:37] <Kilos> oh i wanted to ask you something
