lordievaderGood morning08:17
OerHeksmorning lordievader08:18
lordievaderHey OerHeks, how are you doing?08:19
OerHeksi am good, thank you for asking, how is wily going?08:20
lordievaderNo idea...08:21
lordievaderLast time I ran it, it was okay.08:21
OerHeksoh, i thought you were testing it.08:21
lordievaderWell, it is on a test box. But I don't really have a purpose for it. So really testing it becomes somewhat time consuming.08:22
BluesKajHey all12:05
OerHeksdaftykins, sorry, i could not resist ..15:14
daftykins:D15:16
daftykinsi smiled :)15:16
daftykinsdoes X not start with no display attached o015:36
OerHeksdaftykins, it is an strange story, as it has a beamer attached15:38
daftykinsi guess it just needs to sit there and record these projector streams and not be visible itself15:39
daftykinsbut yeah you would think it could be plugged in and just not be used15:39
cfhowlettyou know, it's very confusing to enter these threads sometimes.  It's located in the little cabin above the beamer?  what the deuce!15:40
daftykins:D15:40
OerHeksfriday issues .. like some dutch computer sites, friday articles are allways funny15:40
daftykinsmy guess is in the university lecture hall there's a bracket with shelves that the projector lives on, suspended from the ceiling15:40
OerHeksi want to know the exact height, dimension and colour too!15:41
OerHeks*hips*15:41
daftykins:)15:42
cfhowlettbeamer = BMW you know ...15:43
OerHeks... scotty!15:44
daftykinscfhowlett: yeah i was thinking that too15:45
daftykinsa little PC recording lecturers attached to a BMW in a lecture hall15:45
daftykinsi imagined a very odd looking room :)15:45
DosTuMaiWoooo. Laptop is fixed. Finally. @_@15:53
DosTuMaiLinux dostumai-Aspire-5315 3.16.0-50-generic #67~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 2 22:08:53 UTC 2015 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux15:54
DosTuMaiNo issues for me. The bugs been fixed for those with problems?15:55
daftykinswhich problems? you're on an old HWE stack there15:58
daftykins3.16 is the utopic HWE for trusty, ancient++15:59
daftykinsyou should either be on trusty's stock 3.13, vivid's 3.19, or soon enough i'm sure there'll be a wily 4.215:59
DosTuMaiYah, just noticed... thought I'd gone through all the upgrades. Gimme a few to meld the atoms in my head with the wall's, then upgrade distro...16:01
daftykinsoh you can skip that step #1 ;)16:01
DosTuMaiD'aww, but that's the most fun step!16:02
=== EriC^^ is now known as explosive
daftykinsyep, it's the weekend alright18:29
OerHekshe he .. i am going into reserve mode, only the real problems.18:30
OerHekswhat linux are you using? i install gnome. (should i fish for more?)18:32
daftykinsi sense here be dragons, OerHeks ;)18:32
DosTuMaiBeat me to the #debian, OerHeks. xD18:33
OerHekssomeone make me coffee, or let my dog out!18:34
DosTuMaisudo make coffee /usr/OerHeks18:36
* DosTuMai adds home made doughnuts to that.18:36
OerHeksgrep donuts | tee -a $ALL18:37
DosTuMai=D18:37
daftykinsi'll take the dog for a walk if there's coffee and doughnuts when i return18:37
DosTuMaiWont be any left if I'm involved...18:38
daftykinsi'll fight you for them!18:38
daftykinsexcept you're a lass, so i guess i'd lose by default18:38
daftykinsDAMN!18:38
* DosTuMai idly brandishes a large, black dildo in daftykins' general direction.18:39
daftykinsDosTuMai: i find you far too naughty to be a mild mannered Linux running lass18:47
daftykins:P18:47
=== explosive is now known as EriC^^
DosTuMaiI'm an ex-army Linux running mountainbiking lass. So 'mild mannered' comes out as an unknown grep error.18:50
OerHeksnice, i a have no driving license, so bike a lot.18:51
DosTuMai2 wheels are better than 4.18:54
OerHekscheaper yeah18:54
DosTuMaiAnd more fun.18:54
Bashing-om^^ and the 2 wheels utilize a renewable resource . :)18:55
OerHeksMy dog loves to ride too18:55
OerHeksa car goes too fast, and then he misses "ohhh see that cute dog!"18:55
DosTuMaiCalorie-propelled vehicles! =D18:55
OerHeksno parking problems18:55
DosTuMaiDepends on the kind of bike, and the area you're parking in...18:56
DosTuMaiI miss my trail dog. She was awesome.18:56
DosTuMaiFYI: Debian doesn't like disabling search on Gnome. You need to make your own GUI for that.18:59
OerHeksI got banned multiple times from debian.19:00
DosTuMaiIs there anywhere you don't get banned from? xD19:01
OerHeksThey hate my cloak, i guess.19:01
OerHeksnope, not even christian channels.19:01
DosTuMaiD=19:01
DosTuMaiI get banned from christian channels regularly for being a satal worshipping, baby eating, murdering atheist lesbian...19:03
OerHeksHeks = Witch ( dutch)19:03
OerHeksSo you like babies too ?19:03
DosTuMaiOhyus, doesn't everyone like talking sausages? Or in some circles; the other _other_ white meat.19:04
daftykinsoh yeah we were talking about the bikes before i left, weren't we19:05
daftykinsmy brain misfiled that entire convo.19:05
DosTuMaiWe were, but now it's moved on to how tasty small children are in a mango sauce.19:06
daftykins\o/19:06
daftykinshmm i should do food about now as it goes19:07
DosTuMaiAlready eaten, I had mac & cheese with loads of bacon.19:08

DosTuMaiI've got a cat that's obsessed with sleeping on my shoes.19:23
HackerIIis his name boots ?19:24
DosTuMaiNo, her name is Olivia.19:24
DosTuMaiAwesome link, HackerII. Reminds me not to move to US.19:26
HackerIIwell, the nsa is world wide, dont kid urself19:28
HackerIIand at this point, the tech they have were not privy to is beyong conventional comprehension19:30
EriC^^of course they have stuff nobody can even dream up yet19:31
EriC^^in like 20 years it'll be common stuff and public, and they'll have stuff then that nobody can dream up either19:31
DosTuMaiI don't know whether to put that comment down to severe paranoia...19:32
EriC^^lol19:32
HackerIIyep, ive been building and repairing electronics for 35 yrs, back in 99/2000, we were converting cable boxes, no one believed they had mics in them, till i broke them down and showed them.'19:32
EriC^^put it down to an acid trip where we came up with the idea that a group of people are controlling the planet19:33
HackerIItruth is stranger than fiction19:33
EriC^^the internet we're using right now came from the war right?19:34
EriC^^and so did tv's and whatever, then later became commercial technologies, so it's pretty logical to assume they have stuff that isn't public right now, that will be in the future though19:35
HackerIIgermany had tv first, they figured out the 60 cycle effect on the mind19:36
HackerIIaplha data beta waves19:37
EriC^^anyways it doesn't affect us really if they can decrypt stuff so who cares19:38
DosTuMai^That.19:38
EriC^^it's not surprising though19:38
DosTuMaiCryptology has advanced exponentially in the last 10 years. That the NSA can crack things easily isn't really news. Most government agencies have experimental, and high-tech equipment.19:40
EriC^^yeah, lots of money and tech19:40
DosTuMaiAlso: Beta waves have no effect on the human brain.19:41

OerHeksnice23:01
EriC^^http://termbin.com/1gft23:02
Bashing-omEriC^^: We know what DE he is running .. maybe 'startx' is not a good thing ?23:02
OerHeksi think that is the cause of his issue ..23:03
EriC^^he's using gnome, startx is fine might say what's wrong since the logs show nothing, won't harm23:03
Bashing-omEriC^^: K; as all else has failed, how bot deleteing the config files ? ~/.dmrc , ~/.config/dconf and ~/.config/compiz-1 ? See what happens on the re-boot ??23:07
EriC^^i think it's a pam issue23:10
EriC^^hmm thought he meant it asks twice then works fine, i dunno23:10
Bashing-omEriC^^: I keep look'n over your shoulder. I am sure now of a learning experience.23:16
