[10:21] <moreati> I reported a bug on launchpad, it was marked Incomplete & requested more info, I've supplied more info. Should I change it from Incomplete? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1488409? If so to what status?
[10:30] <moreati> Aha, the answer is yes https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Bug%20statuses#Frequently_Asked_Questions
[19:21] <Azelphur> Hey folks, I have a USB IR receiver and remote that came with it, seems to be plug and play apart from a bunch of the buttons don't work. Any ideas?
[19:21] <Azelphur> the receiver blinks an LED when it sees button presses, so hardware wise I assume it's working
[19:22] <foobarry> anyone experienced problems with TWRP on android? sent my phone into a terminal bootloop after performing a nandroid backup
[19:22] <Azelphur> foobarry: I've noticed it does strange things to the OS when you backup, are you looking to factory reset?
[19:22] <foobarry> i was trying to backup
[19:23] <foobarry> it killed the recovery partition and OS
[19:23] <foobarry> had to format the whole storage and start from scratch again
[19:23] <penguin42> foobarry: You're sure you've got the right TWRP for your exact device?
[19:23] <foobarry> yes penguin42
[19:23] <penguin42> hmm
[19:23] <foobarry> after doing it twice, i switched to CWM and seems more stable
[19:24] <shauno> Azelphur: tried using lirc?  I think irw should spit out stuff for each keypress, regardless of whether it's mapped to something
[19:24] <penguin42> foobarry: I'm guessing it's just a bad or build for that device; sometimes the layout gets changed between versions of the firmware
[19:24] <Azelphur> shauno: nah I haven't, just using the plug and play, guess I should go learn lircd
[19:25] <shauno> it might be worth poking just to make sure events are being generated
[19:25] <foobarry> basically destroyed my phone a few times in 2 days
[19:25] <foobarry> now its OK i hope
[19:26] <foobarry> couldn't wait any longer to get a newer adnroid as 5.0.2 was shocking
[19:26] <shauno> (I haven't used the /dev/input stuff though, so I'm not sure what you'd do with them if you did find the events)
[19:26] <penguin42> foobarry: What phone?
[19:26] <foobarry> 7 seconds between switching apps
[19:26] <foobarry> motog X1032
[19:26] <penguin42> nod
[19:26] <foobarry> 5.1.1 not out yet
[19:26] <foobarry> although i may have jinxed it and will come out tomorrow now
[19:26] <bujji> how can i add sd4 partition to sd5 here is my details https://bpaste.net/show/2a2ed32ec2b6
[19:29] <bujji> hello o/
[19:30] <Azelphur> I found this https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=140586 that block of code doesn't look too promising
[19:30] <Azelphur> shauno: ^ :(
[19:30] <shauno> bujji: you mean merge them?
[19:31] <bujji> shauno: hm es
[19:32] <penguin42> Azelphur: Wire shark can watch USB, so you can see if anything at all appears
[19:34] <Azelphur> penguin42: I see many people with this problem, so we can assume not a hardware fault
[19:34] <Azelphur> so stuff no doubt appears in wireshark :)
[19:34] <shauno> hm, I'm not sure I can touch that one.  especially with one of them being ntfs.
[19:35] <shauno> you need to backup all data off sda4, delete it, and the swap partition, then grow the extended part into the rest of the disk.  create a new swap at the end of the disk, then grow 4 into the slack
[19:35] <shauno> but you will screw this up on the first three attempts and trash everything.  so lots of backups.  lots of backups.  so much backup that it's quicker just to repartition and start again.
[19:36] <bujji> i took backup of sd4, so sd5 lso i have to take.
[19:39] <shauno> well the thing is, the "easy" method is just to copy all the data somewhere safe, re-do your partitions, then copy it back again
[19:39] <shauno> the "clever" way is so messy that you 100% need that backup anyway.  which is the first half of doing it the easy way
[19:40] <bujji> entire data i have to copy and partition again?
[19:40] <shauno> so it boils down to whether you actually want to make life easy for yourself
[19:40] <shauno> you don't have to, but I think it's the least risky
[19:40] <shauno> finish your backup, re-do your partitions, then go to bed while it copies back.
[19:41] <bujji> any doc..
[19:41] <shauno> the "clever" version isn't much quicker since you're trying to join ntfs+ext4, so you have to copy all of one anyway
[19:43] <bujji> hmm,if it is added /   ?
[19:48] <bujji> o/
[20:05] <diddledan> ebenink
[20:09] <penguin42> that's not a very good password is it
[20:10] <diddledan> :-)
[20:47] <shauno> I gotta admit, it's difficult not to channel your inner-diddledan when you read things like "Wily has changes in scripts/init-bottom coming"
[20:47] <diddledan> :-p
[20:47] <diddledan> my work here is done! :-D
[20:48] <diddledan> that's an awesome combination of words, though!
[20:48] <shauno> so you're finished now?
[20:48] <diddledan> no
[20:48] <diddledan> :-p
[20:48] <diddledan> I'll never stop!
[20:49] <diddledan> I feel it requires regular top-ups to maintain potency
[20:50] <shauno> :(
[20:51] <foobarry> http://fox5sandiego.com/2015/08/29/large-bug-scares-weather-reporter-on-live-tv/
[20:51] <foobarry> lol
[20:51] <diddledan> small drone?
[20:54] <shauno> lol, welcome to faux news
[20:54] <diddledan> shauno, is it really as bad as people make out?
[20:56] <diddledan> I hear it's like "an airplane today was doing normal things. it reminded people of 9/11 and how dangerous OMG TERRORISM can be lourking everywhere"
[20:56] <diddledan> lurking, too
[20:57] <diddledan> (notice how I spelled aeroplane the american way to maintain accuracy :-p)
[20:58] <shauno> to be fair, most of them are really as bad as people make out.  I lean heaviest on faux news because our boss used to put it on from 6 'till 9am every morning.
[20:58] <diddledan> ouch
[21:03] <shauno> this one's fantastic - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0IiVyFM4yo&t=415
[21:03] <shauno> mostly because it's a perfectly serious finance segment.  american dude isn't actually trying to be a clown.
[21:04] <diddledan> lmao
[21:05] <diddledan> that's terrible
[21:06] <shauno> I do realise the whole britain vs gb vs uk mess can be fun to explain.  but like .. 5 seconds of homework?
[21:07] <shauno> I'm quite surprised the IDA guy didn't beat him to death with a rubber chicken.
[21:21] <shauno> man, xbmc does *not* like it when you rename your fileserver
[21:25] <diddledan> did you kill it?
[21:25] <shauno> I just have to re-add everything
[21:43] <directhex> shauno: he might not be trying, yet he's enormously successful!
[21:44] <diddledan> :-)
[21:46] <daftykins> shauno: Kodi! :P
[21:47] <shauno> I don't believe there's a build for my aging 1st-gen appletv :(
[21:47] <daftykins> ah i see
[21:48] <daftykins> nah they've finally been murdered since Apple removed the required libs and what not (i am no dev ;) ) from the default install
[21:48] <daftykins> was too much work for the guy that looks after them to keep going
[21:49] <shauno> I think on the 1st-gen it's just an age issue  (the software image hasn't change in years)
[21:50] <daftykins> ah ok
[21:50] <daftykins> i dunno when it got murdered, maybe it's only the v2 that still works with 14.2
[21:50] <shauno> it's a celeron M .. single-core, I think 800 or 900MHz.  with 256Mb.
[21:51] <daftykins> in the bin :D
[21:52] <shauno> haha, nah, it still does what I bought it for
[21:52] <shauno> and it's difficult to find anything else htpc-ish for the price
[21:55] <shauno> besides, it's pretty :)  the old ones look like a half-height mac mini, instead of the new black matchbox things
[21:56] <daftykins> i quite like the Amazon FireTV i picked up for £50 when on sale
[21:56] <daftykins> definitely more limited on android than a standard OS though
[21:56] <shauno> yeah, that's android.  not doing that.
[21:57] <shauno> if an advertising company wants to stick a black box on my network, they can pay me for it.
[21:57] <daftykins> i was hoping to make my lounge one into a pretend squeezebox with addons in Kodi, but you have to pay for an app to do it for some reason
[21:57] <daftykins> well mine runs Kodi :P
[21:57] <daftykins> and amusingly i've used it to watch some of their own shows XD
[21:59] <shauno> I'm really attached to the idea of something that runs a proper OS
[22:00] <shauno> the first-gen appletv is still osx under the hood, so it's quite familiar.  otherwise something nice & tidy with linux on intel or arm would be fine too
[22:02] <shauno> basically, if the intel nuc was half the price and the cases didn't look like pants
[22:02] <daftykins> mmm my ASRock box is still pretty good, i just got annoyed with the fans. dual core Atom, 2GB RAM and ion1 for VDPAU offload handles HD nicely - SSD for speedy boot
[22:02] <daftykins> haha yeah they're pretty poor
[22:04] <shauno> I mean, that's basically what the appletv is.  what the nuc would be pre-core (but with optical+component audio, and $99)
[22:04] <daftykins> component audio o0
[22:05] <shauno> I'm a fan of being able to attach anything & everything to my amplifier :D
[22:07] <daftykins> just not sure what that means. i have an AVR so i can make use of optical or the HDMI just fine
[22:07] <daftykins> i don't own a device that can bitstream the lossless HD formats to it, but i don't really imagine it's as good as the dedicated folk tell me ^_^
[22:07] <daftykins> especially on my little baby speaker set
[22:09] <shauno> oh, I mean it still has phono sockets
[22:10] <directhex> bedtime.
[22:10] <shauno> handy because my amp only has two optical inputs, and since apple stick optical on pretty much everything, I tend to run out of them first
[22:11] <daftykins> ah i see
[22:11] <daftykins> you could get an ugly little switcher box ;)
[22:12] <shauno> that'd be mesy :p
[22:13] <daftykins> i remember when a mate had a little switcher that you just rotated a bit on to flick between optical inputs
[22:20] <shauno> ooh, it's faster than I thought; 1GHz apparently
[22:20] <shauno> and it seems it's having some problems with ipv6
[22:22] <shauno> it has v6 addresses where the v6 addresses should be, and v6 addresses where the v4 addresses should be.  good thing I don't really use v4
[22:23] <penguin42> shauno: The v4 address, it's not a v6 address starting ffff....
[22:23] <penguin42> ?
[22:23] <shauno> nope, it's the same as my global
[22:23] <penguin42> fun
[22:24] <shauno> Has IP Assigned: Yes
[22:24] <shauno> IPv4 Addresses: 2001:0470:etcetc
[22:24] <daftykins> haha
[22:24] <shauno> my 10. don't appear anywhere
[22:25] <shauno> oddly, ifconfig gets it right, but system_profiler doesn't
[22:27] <diddledan> you know women have boob implants? are those silly cones?
[22:27] <daftykins> that's a bad diddledan
[22:28] <shauno> I know I'm way OT, but that's .. slapworthy
[22:28] <daftykins> maybe that's why he wouldn't meet you up shauno, you'd have had so many in a backlog to dish out ;)
[22:29] <shauno> I think he just didn't want to admit his ankle bracelet would alarm if he went that far from home
[22:29] <diddledan> lol
[22:32] <diddledan> ooh, I'm a week out of date on dark matter
[22:32]  * diddledan watches ep11
[22:32] <shauno> wossat?
[22:32] <diddledan> (from the twenty onest)
[22:32] <diddledan> shauno, a fun scifi
[22:33] <diddledan> http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4159076/
[22:43] <shauno> also, I'm now the proud owner of a usb floppy drive :D
[22:43] <penguin42> shauno: Technology!
[22:44] <diddledan> I'm the proud owner of a usb thingie that plugs into a floopy drive, does that count as awesome?
[22:44] <shauno> totally technology.  I like to raid the recycling bins at work.
[22:45] <diddledan> shauno, raided floppies!
[22:45] <diddledan> shauno, RAID5
[22:46] <shauno> lolno.
[22:53] <penguin42> diddledan: Ooh, so you mean you could connect that to a 5.25 drive?
[22:53] <diddledan> penguin42, yeah
