Sicnus | While installing, my system hangs at: "Preparing to install Ubuntu Gnome" This is UG 15.10 btw. | 02:57 |
Sicnus | Does anyone know the default user/pass for UG 15.10? I'd like to log in on TTY1 | 02:59 |

Sicnus | Doubt anyones awake but... If I've tried to install Ubuntu like 4x times and it kept hanging @ "Preparing to install Ubuntu Gnome" but then I switched the position on my hard drive where swap and / was... and it worked perfectly... could that be an indication of something wrong with that sector of the drive? | 12:33 |
Sicnus | http://pastebin.com/U9jY5zZG | 13:47 |
Sicnus | I think I accidently deleted something essential from my sources.list.d/ dir :/ | 13:47 |
toXel_ | Sicnus: the equinox ppa you've added has no support for wily | 14:05 |
=== toXel_ is now known as toXel | ||
Sicnus | toXel, heh... I know it's lame, but I just nuked and re-installed. :( [I'm so bad] | 14:08 |
Sicnus | there are a lot of outdated icon sets out there that don't support Wily apparently | 14:09 |
Sicnus | course, it did just come out | 14:09 |
toXel | I think you should just have changed the sources.list entry of the repo from wily to trusty | 14:11 |
Sicnus | toXel, been about 6 years since I've used Linux... that and being old... I've forgotten stuff. :) | 14:12 |
toXel | :D | 14:12 |
toXel | Shit happens ;) | 14:12 |
Sicnus | aye... it killed my OCD knowing I couldn't cleanly apt-get update | 14:12 |
toXel | Oh yea I know that feeling... | 14:13 |
Sicnus | So I've been around Linux since 96'.... (in one way or another) but have just switched back using it as a desktop. There are a lot of improvements on things... but in some ways.... a lot of the old issues still seem present. Can't put my finger on it... just a feeling | 14:14 |
toXel | My first experiences with Linux was in 2006 with Ubuntu. And IMHO Linux has changed a lot since then | 14:27 |
Sicnus | toXel, true... but a lot of the same struggles I've seen with UI / DE stuff seems present. But you are right... leaps and bounds of progress has been made. | 14:29 |
Sicnus | plus, a lot of it could be my own personal bias :) | 14:29 |
toXel | Yes bias has a big role in the Linux world unfortunately | 14:30 |
Sicnus | The one thing that does blow my mind is the # of flavors of linux | 14:30 |
* Sicnus does Jackie Chan face | 14:30 | |
toXel | But there's something for everyone ;) | 14:30 |
Sicnus | hehe | 14:30 |
Sicnus | course, I'd love to smack Mark up for picking Unity over GNOME. *sigh* | 14:31 |
Sicnus | If he'd have hired me... it wouldn't have happened. :) [Applied for a community lead position at one point in time @ Ubuntu] | 14:31 |

Sick | what the heck is the little > < arrow at the bottom left in GNOME? heh. it shows my Hexchat icon currently.... It looks like a list of open things, but... it doesn't show anything but Hexchat (and I have about 5 other apps open) | 15:32 |
toXel | That's normally where the notification icons are placed in Gnome 3.18 | 16:43 |
toXel | Except when you have TopIcons installed | 16:44 |
toXel | @Sick ^ | 16:45 |
meetingology | toXel: Error: "Sick" is not a valid command. | 16:45 |
toXel | Sick: ^ | 16:45 |
Sick | toXel, lol | 16:49 |
Sick | toXel, I'm not a valid command, what!?! :) | 16:49 |
toXel | Yea I've written (at)Sick | 16:54 |
toXel | Seems like we can write commands to the bot with @ | 16:54 |
toXel | @help | 16:54 |
Sick | just teasing... and thanks, I've installed TopIcons... much better | 16:54 |
meetingology | toXel: (help [<plugin>] [<command>]) -- This command gives a useful description of what <command> does. <plugin> is only necessary if the command is in more than one plugin. You may also want to use the 'list' command to list all available plugins and commands. | 16:54 |
toXel | @list | 16:55 |
meetingology | toXel: Admin, Channel, Config, MeetBot, Misc, NickAuth, NickCapture, Owner, and User | 16:55 |
Sick | toXel, you know where in dconf I can change the Top Bar to show Day (LONG) & Month (LONG) Example: Sunday, November instead of: Sun/Nov ? | 18:13 |
toXel | Use gnome-tweak | 18:13 |
toXel | There you can change it | 18:13 |
Sick | :/ It doesn't seem to let you change from short to long... but perhaps I'm just missing it. | 18:14 |
Sick | one sec | 18:14 |
toXel | Oh but I don't think that you can change the date format there sorry | 18:14 |
Sick | yeah... | 18:15 |
Sick | I think it's a dconf thingy | 18:15 |
toXel | I'm not thaaaaat experienced in dconf stuff :D | 18:16 |
toXel | Google is your friend | 18:17 |
toXel | Or duckduckgo ;P | 18:18 |
Sick | hah | 18:18 |
Sick | I'm just digging through dconf | 18:18 |
Sick | "What could go wrong?" | 18:18 |
Sick | ;) | 18:18 |
toXel | With gsettings you can list the whole dconf tree recursively and grep it | 18:19 |
Sick | I'm surprised I'm the only one that has been bothered by that. | 18:22 |
