| bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 09:33 |
| moreati | A sanity check. Has _your_ Ubuntu laptop ever switched audio playback from internal speakers when you plugged in e.g. USB speakers/headphones? | 09:34 |
| moreati | I struggling to get a straight answer from Google over whether that's a feature Ubuntu supports | 09:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | my laptop has sound?! :-) | 09:37 |
| TwistedLucidity | moreati: I can't say I've ever actually tired. Might be a hardware thing. Which laptop/model? | 09:49 |
| TwistedLucidity | Just tried my Kubuntu desktop, it switches from speakers to headphones automagically, and that's with a (spit) Creative Labs card installed. | 09:52 |
| TwistedLucidity | Can't think why a lappy would be any different | 09:53 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 09:59 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all; happy Thursday, and happy Internet Day! 😃 | 10:00 |
| zmoylan-pi | isn't every day internet day? | 10:01 |
| JamesTait | Also, happy Cat Day. Totally coincidental, I'm sure. | 10:01 |
| zmoylan-pi | no no happy cat day conincides with laser pointer day... :-) | 10:02 |

| Myrtti | I wonder how much the sales of mini amplifiers has risen since the launch of Chromecast Audio | 10:24 |
| moreati | Good point by TwistedLucidity. I hadn't thought of speaker <-> headphones. Plugging in works: audio is rerouted from internal speakers -> headphones | 10:47 |
| moreati | Unplugging doesn't have the desired effect: audio is rerouted from headphones to S/PDIF out. | 10:48 |
| moreati | Think I'm starting to find the edge pieces of this problem, thank you all | 10:52 |

| awilkins | moreati, Last time I had a problem like that, I had to patch a kernel driver | 11:47 |
| awilkins | It was a problem in the "patch panel" code | 11:47 |
| awilkins | But I don't know where replugs are handled | 11:48 |
| moreati | awilkins: noted, thank you. I'll dig into when I have a dull afternoon. | 11:48 |
| moreati | ditto, expect it's a rabbit warren of libraries and abstrction layers | 11:49 |

| bigcalm | earlier | 17:00 |
| popey | * bigcalm has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) | 17:01 |
| popey | at 14:53 | 17:01 |
| bigcalm | Thanks | 17:02 |
| bigcalm | When my connection goes away and I'm not at home, I fear the worst | 17:02 |
| bigcalm | Glad it came back :) | 17:03 |
| daftykins | :D | 17:38 |
| daftykins | i was away from England once, back on the island... when a disgruntled housemate decided to unplug my server from my switch | 17:39 |
| daftykins | that was highly irritating :P | 17:39 |
| bigcalm | Nasty | 17:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | if only someone would make a red dwarf skutter with a rasp pi... :-) | 17:50 |
| daftykins | you, sir! | 17:50 |
| daftykins | haha, the text colour change of "sudo apt update" stuck with my terminal when i had to break out of it | 17:56 |
| daftykins | anyone know if a wily HWE is coming anytime? | 18:01 |

| popey | Feb next year | 18:04 |
| popey | then another in august next year | 18:05 |
| daftykins | ah har, ty sir :) | 18:05 |
| popey | np | 18:06 |
| diddledan_ | I managed to resurrect a bricked motherboard today \o/ | 20:24 |
| diddledan_ | it was dead due to a botched bios upgrade | 20:24 |
| daftykins | \o/ | 20:25 |
| daftykins | is it still rubbish and old? ;) | 20:25 |
| diddledan_ | lol | 20:25 |
| daftykins | in those situations can you not do the hotswap trick? | 20:25 |
| daftykins | boot a good system, throw it in, force a flash of the other ones BIOS | 20:25 |
| diddledan_ | it's the most forward-looking of my boards with an EFI vs BIOS in all my others | 20:25 |
| daftykins | the hybrid thing directhex said to kill with fire? | 20:26 |
| diddledan_ | nah, this one is a real one | 20:26 |
| diddledan_ | I was running the hybrid thing in bios-only mode because this board was dead | 20:26 |
| diddledan_ | I finally got around to figuring out how to use an SPI cable to reblow the chip from a different system | 20:27 |
| daftykins | \o/ did it look like a proper jerry rigged setup? :> | 20:28 |
| diddledan_ | yup | 20:28 |
| diddledan_ | cables dangling all over the shop | 20:28 |
| diddledan_ | the cable I bought had the wrong-size connectors and everything | 20:28 |
| daftykins | dooooh | 20:29 |
| diddledan_ | so I had four of the wrong-size for data and some extensions that I connected combined with a couple jumpers | 20:29 |
| diddledan_ | it was fragile to say the least - one slight jog and it would have all come apart | 20:30 |
| diddledan_ | I was holding my breath until the flashrom program said it was verified | 20:30 |
| diddledan_ | I daren't have moved! | 20:30 |
| daftykins | XD | 20:31 |
| diddledan_ | strangely my windows install is still activated despite the swapping to the different mobo (now that the mobo works I replaced the one I had running) | 20:33 |
| daftykins | give it time ;) | 20:34 |
| diddledan_ | lol | 20:34 |
| diddledan_ | yeah I'm expecting it to moan sooner or later | 20:34 |
| diddledan_ | perhaps it's waiting until halloween before it moans? | 20:34 |
| diddledan_ | I'll wake up in the night to my computer moaning at me | 20:35 |
| diddledan_ | scary! | 20:35 |
| daftykins | :) | 20:35 |
| diddledan_ | there's nothing scarier than a windows possessed :-p | 20:35 |
| daftykins | hmm, xbone streaming Halo 5 now hits 18Mb of throughput | 21:31 |
| daftykins | highest i've seen | 21:31 |

| diddledan_ | ergh, that was a pain... protip, when installing a fancy cpu cooler, read the instructions before you apply the thermal compound. and also watch where those fat fingers wander after the compound is applied - I had to get a load off of my forehead | 22:05 |
| diddledan_ | in unrelated news, my pc is quiet now | 22:05 |
| diddledan_ | now. what windows prog can tell me my temperature? | 22:06 |
| diddledan_ | cpu is current at about 25C | 22:10 |
| daftykins | XD | 22:14 |
| daftykins | diddledan_: www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/ | 22:14 |
| diddledan_ | I went with openhardwaremonitor | 22:14 |
| daftykins | be sure to click 'More DOwnloads' at the top else it'll be full of gubbins | 22:14 |
| daftykins | this one's good as it reads the on-die thermy thingy ;) | 22:14 |
| diddledan_ | thermite? | 22:15 |
| daftykins | :D | 22:15 |
| daftykins | would i trick you like that? yes... but only if i could video the result | 22:16 |
| diddledan_ | lol | 22:16 |
