| Kilos | hehehe sorry inetpro | 07:08 |
| * Kilos notes topic hasnt changed | 07:09 | |
| Xethron | Good morning guys | 07:23 |
| theblazehen | hi Xethron | 07:36 |
| magespawn | good morning | 07:54 |
| theblazehen | hi magespawn | 08:03 |
| magespawn | hey theblazehen | 08:06 |
| theblazehen | http://i.imgur.com/BJ1m5Xw.jpg I quite like my setup :) 5 Displays | 08:28 |
| theblazehen | 1024x768 + 1366x768 + 1600x900 + 1366x768 + 1024x768 | 08:28 |
| TinuvaMac | theblazehen: great word doc you have open there | 08:44 |
| TinuvaMac | some super secret info | 08:44 |
| theblazehen | TinuvaMac: heh, yeah.. Studying for finals | 08:46 |
| andrewlsd | hope theblazehen has patented that so no one else can procreate that way. | 08:58 |
| pieter2627 | theblazehen: you still have subjects left? | 09:50 |
| theblazehen | pieter2627: yeah, most of them. Only wrote likt 5 or 6 exams so far | 09:50 |
| pieter2627 | wow, we were done by now | 09:51 |
| theblazehen | I'm in a private school, so write a bit later | 09:55 |
| Xethron | theblazehen: What do you use to get so many screens? USB adapters? | 09:56 |
| pieter2627 | haha, last year they said your in private so will write earlier | 09:56 |
| * pieter2627 was also in private (homeschool) | 09:56 | |
| theblazehen | Xethron: nah, I'm using my intel onboard for the main rendering, outputs to VGA and HDMI, then a GTX550Ti set as a RandR output slave with 2x DVI and then a GT210 with 1x VGA output | 09:57 |
| theblazehen | pieter2627: huh, weird | 09:57 |
| Xethron | Meh :/ I'm looking for something to increase my displays of my laptop | 09:58 |
| theblazehen | Onboard faster than my dedicated GPU :/ Although I did get it for free as a "broken" gpu. Runs with nouveau but not nvidia | 09:58 |
| theblazehen | Xethron: If the USB one supports displaylink then it should work afaik | 09:58 |
| Xethron | Laptop luckly has 2 outputs, and its screen. So I can have 3. But would like another one or two :P | 09:58 |
| Xethron | I haven't heard good things with Linux and those USB adapters | 09:59 |
| Xethron | So not sure if its worth trying | 09:59 |
| theblazehen | Yeah, I think for my laptop 3 should be fine :) | 09:59 |
| theblazehen | Yeah, you need to use the modesetting drivers etc | 09:59 |
| Xethron | Sounds like effort | 10:00 |
| theblazehen | Using intel onboard? I find intel has best support ofr offloading | 10:00 |
| Xethron | I'll wait for USB-C | 10:00 |
| theblazehen | Yeah, I once had a 6 display setup, running a virtual display and connecting my laptop with vnc :) | 10:00 |
| theblazehen | Yeah, hopefully that works better. Although I think that standard is displaylink though? | 10:01 |
| Xethron | Intel CPU yes, NVIDIA GPU | 10:01 |
| theblazehen | Ah, nvidia gpu.. Could cause problems. Using nouveau or nvidia driver? | 10:01 |
| theblazehen | My setup won't work with nouveau as the main display | 10:02 |
| Xethron | I don't use the propriatary drivers | 10:02 |
| theblazehen | AMD is worse than nvidia though.. Had my HD5450 swapped out for a GT210 | 10:02 |
| Xethron | They always seem to cause issues | 10:02 |
| theblazehen | Yeah, same here. Luckily the intel GPU drivers are great | 10:02 |
| magespawn | i use a VGA splitter with four outputs | 10:02 |
| pieter2627 | Isn't USB-C just a form factor (no new standards) | 10:03 |
| Xethron | Yeah, seems to be xserver-xorg-ideo-nouveau | 10:03 |
| theblazehen | pieter2627: I think it might just be a new form factor, but there are also going to be new standards or something? | 10:03 |
| Xethron | pieter2627: USB-C is like that Apple thing | 10:03 |
| Xethron | Whats that wire new iphones have | 10:04 |
| Xethron | And the Apple screens use? | 10:04 |
| theblazehen | Xethron: Won't work unless you try it I guess.. You don't have an old desktop at home | 10:04 |
| theblazehen | Xethron: iphone: lightning, think displays are thunderbolt? | 10:04 |
| Xethron | Yes, thunderbolt | 10:04 |
| Xethron | Apple is also dropping all its Thunderbolt technology in favour of USB-C | 10:05 |
| magespawn | so not technically four screens | 10:05 |
| theblazehen | magespawn: Different from the ones that have 4 duplicate screens? That's what they have at school.. | 10:06 |
| magespawn | it is a duplicate, then i just extend the desktop rather than duplicate it, work like a projector | 10:07 |
| magespawn | cheap and nasty | 10:07 |
| magespawn | but works no matter what laptop i plug in | 10:08 |
| theblazehen | Yeah, seems to be xserver-xorg-ideo-nouveau puters breakingbad confucius dexter{,slab} kernelnewbies portal{,2} vimtips debian science archlinux hackers linux matrix protolol) <(echo) <(python2 -c 'print \"-\"*50') <(echo);done"|fmt -w 52} | 10:23 |

| theblazehen | ^What happens when you realize conky has a line length limit | 10:24 |
| andrewlsd | lol | 10:24 |
| theblazehen | Could save 2 characters if i used 'seq 1 5' instead of the '1 2 3 4 5', ah well. Got it small enough now | 10:25 |
| andrewlsd | Similar results with: for i in {1..5} | 10:25 |
| andrewlsd | (applies to bash, YMMV with other envs) | 10:26 |
| theblazehen | yeah, forgot about that.. saves 1 char more than my seq solution. ty | 10:26 |
| theblazehen | actually no, since seq would need to be surrounded by ` or with $() | 10:26 |
| theblazehen | So yours saves 3 characters | 10:33 |
| andrewlsd | ;-) | 10:33 |
| andrewlsd | anyone here looked at "snappy-desktop" or managed to get Unity8 ? | 11:01 |
| andrewlsd | I tried the unity8-lxc session, but it didn't ever build successfully | 11:02 |
| andrewlsd | basically, I just want a ISO/USB that I can boot from and test drive. | 11:02 |
| theblazehen | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8DesktopIso This? | 11:16 |
| theblazehen | Got it from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8Desktop | 11:16 |
| andrewlsd | theblazehen: thanks. that link is from 2014, and the "daily live" link is dead | 13:25 |
| andrewlsd | regarding UDS: Am I correct that the sessions start 16h00 SA time? | 13:31 |
| inetpro | andrewlsd: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uos-1511/2015-11-05/ | 13:55 |
| andrewlsd | ty inetpro | 13:55 |
| inetpro | oh and yes, 14:00 UTC = 16:00 SAST | 13:56 |

| pieter2627 | Kilos: I am reading the log so will have feedback in a bit | 18:01 |
| Kilos | cool ty | 18:01 |
| Kilos | ive forgotten what i asked even | 18:02 |
| pieter2627 | Kilos: is clr_ with any lug? | 18:04 |
| Kilos | oh my | 18:04 |
| Kilos | what did he say | 18:04 |
| pieter2627 | he seems the most keen about a linuxconza or linuxfestza - the one that broad them up | 18:05 |
| pieter2627 | sounds like the same karl that organized SFD | 18:06 |
| Kilos | dont think its karl | 18:08 |
| pieter2627 | for the lugs members you mentioned we have Vince of Durbs, then there is also grmble of tuks | 18:08 |
| pieter2627 | oh ok (clr almost sounds like it) | 18:09 |
| Kilos | oh ya and wwk in durbs' | 18:09 |
| pieter2627 | and then should also be someone from jozi? | 18:10 |
| Kilos | but i get the dbn lug mails and they have been dead quiet for months | 18:10 |
| Kilos | 2 of thejozi lug guys came here some months ago and stayed a couple of days | 18:11 |

| magespawn | np | 18:13 |
| pieter2627 | Kilos: sounded like you might have had g+ (whre you thought it is best to connect) info on some lugs which we can try | 18:14 |
| Kilos | the durban lug guys have hangouts on G+ | 18:14 |
| Kilos | even their mailing list gets done from there i think | 18:15 |
| Kilos | maybe jozi lug are also G+ers | 18:16 |
| pieter2627 | yip, the hangout is what you mentioned that made me think you might have the other's too | 18:16 |
| Kilos | didnt i say i dont do G+ often | 18:16 |
| Kilos | inetpro is the G+ man | 18:16 |
| pieter2627 | yip, which is why you asked for help | 18:17 |
| Kilos | maybe we need to rock his boat | 18:17 |
| * Kilos rocks the pros cradle | 18:17 | |

| pieter2627 | haha, else we can start scouting g+ tom | 18:18 |

| magespawn | back again | 19:56 |
| thatgraemeguy | oh hai | 20:01 |
| magespawn | hey | 20:04 |
| gremble | I've had to set up an SSL connection in order to get onto IRC through mweb -_- | 21:02 |
| Kilos | hi Guest9474 | 21:12 |
| Kilos | whats happening gremble | 21:12 |
| gremble | Hey Kilos | 21:12 |
| Kilos | why is it not doing irc | 21:12 |
| gremble | I don't know | 21:12 |
| gremble | I have been struggling to get onto irc for days now | 21:12 |
| gremble | It would just drop the connection for the entire day | 21:13 |
| Kilos | does it give error reports | 21:13 |
| gremble | No, it just dies. Refusing to connect | 21:13 |
| Kilos | fone them and complain' | 21:13 |
| gremble | then tries to reconncet | 21:13 |
| gremble | So I tried setting up a tor connection, but freenode doesn't support tor atm. Set up SSL and now it magically works | 21:14 |
| Kilos | ya but you shouldnt need to hassle like that | 21:15 |
| Kilos | irc works easy normally | 21:15 |
| gremble | Kilos: I agree. At least it has given me the opportunity to learn about SSL certificates and got me thinking about implementing a toy messing app that uses UDP instead of TCP | 21:16 |
| Kilos | ok | 21:16 |
| gremble | How have you been Kilos? | 21:16 |
| Kilos | ive been good ty, just tired | 21:16 |
| Kilos | would have been in bed hours ago if not for a board meeting | 21:17 |
| gremble | Oh alright. I think my belly is keeping me awake, and the fact that I have been sleeping the entire day. I've been inbed sick since sunday | 21:17 |
| gremble | :/ | 21:17 |
| Kilos | oh my | 21:18 |
| Kilos | whats wrong | 21:18 |
| Kilos | haha refined salt | 21:18 |
| gremble | Flu or something that my mother picked up at the hospital (where she works) and it just hit me hard | 21:18 |
| gremble | Haha probably :P | 21:18 |
| Kilos | oh my | 21:18 |
| Kilos | lotsa bugs in hospitals | 21:18 |
| gremble | Yep. We'll just have to fortify our immune systems | 21:19 |
| gremble | Hey magespawn | 21:37 |
