[04:19] morning all [04:19] well, all the early ones [06:00] just you pieter2627 :) [06:00] morning all [06:04] yea, got so bored that my nails got a 'trimming' :P [06:17] hi pieter2627 thatgraemeguy [06:17] and inetpro and other lurkers [06:22] hello Kilos [07:06] Sup guys [07:07] good morings oom Kilos [07:07] oh and hi everyone else [07:07] hey inetpro [07:07] hi theblazehen you ok lad? [07:07] Sup Kilos, yeah I'm good and you? [07:08] good ty [07:08] oom Kilos is way too slack these days :-) [07:08] hehehe sorry inetpro [07:09] * Kilos notes topic hasnt changed [07:23] Good morning guys [07:36] hi Xethron [07:54] good morning [08:03] hi magespawn [08:06] hey theblazehen [08:28] http://i.imgur.com/BJ1m5Xw.jpg I quite like my setup :) 5 Displays [08:28] 1024x768 + 1366x768 + 1600x900 + 1366x768 + 1024x768 [08:44] theblazehen: great word doc you have open there [08:44] some super secret info [08:46] TinuvaMac: heh, yeah.. Studying for finals [08:58] hope theblazehen has patented that so no one else can procreate that way. [09:50] theblazehen: you still have subjects left? [09:50] pieter2627: yeah, most of them. Only wrote likt 5 or 6 exams so far [09:51] wow, we were done by now [09:55] I'm in a private school, so write a bit later [09:56] theblazehen: What do you use to get so many screens? USB adapters? [09:56] haha, last year they said your in private so will write earlier [09:56] * pieter2627 was also in private (homeschool) [09:57] 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] pieter2627: huh, weird [09:58] Meh :/ I'm looking for something to increase my displays of my laptop [09:58] 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] Xethron: If the USB one supports displaylink then it should work afaik [09:58] Laptop luckly has 2 outputs, and its screen. So I can have 3. But would like another one or two :P [09:59] I haven't heard good things with Linux and those USB adapters [09:59] So not sure if its worth trying [09:59] Yeah, I think for my laptop 3 should be fine :) [09:59] Yeah, you need to use the modesetting drivers etc [10:00] Sounds like effort [10:00] Using intel onboard? I find intel has best support ofr offloading [10:00] I'll wait for USB-C [10:00] Yeah, I once had a 6 display setup, running a virtual display and connecting my laptop with vnc :) [10:01] Yeah, hopefully that works better. Although I think that standard is displaylink though? [10:01] Intel CPU yes, NVIDIA GPU [10:01] Ah, nvidia gpu.. Could cause problems. Using nouveau or nvidia driver? [10:02] My setup won't work with nouveau as the main display [10:02] I don't use the propriatary drivers [10:02] AMD is worse than nvidia though.. Had my HD5450 swapped out for a GT210 [10:02] They always seem to cause issues [10:02] Yeah, same here. Luckily the intel GPU drivers are great [10:02] i use a VGA splitter with four outputs [10:03] Isn't USB-C just a form factor (no new standards) [10:03] Yeah, seems to be xserver-xorg-ideo-nouveau [10:03] pieter2627: I think it might just be a new form factor, but there are also going to be new standards or something? [10:03] pieter2627: USB-C is like that Apple thing [10:04] Whats that wire new iphones have [10:04] And the Apple screens use? [10:04] Xethron: Won't work unless you try it I guess.. You don't have an old desktop at home [10:04] Xethron: iphone: lightning, think displays are thunderbolt? [10:04] Yes, thunderbolt [10:05] Apple is also dropping all its Thunderbolt technology in favour of USB-C [10:05] so not technically four screens [10:06] magespawn: Different from the ones that have 4 duplicate screens? That's what they have at school.. [10:07] it is a duplicate, then i just extend the desktop rather than duplicate it, work like a projector [10:07] cheap and nasty [10:08] but works no matter what laptop i plug in [10:23] 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] Oops [10:23] ${color3}${font DejaVu Sans Mono:size=10}${execi 60 bash -c "for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do cat <(fortune -a computers 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} [10:24] ^What happens when you realize conky has a line length limit [10:24] lol [10:25] 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] Similar results with: for i in {1..5} [10:26] (applies to bash, YMMV with other envs) [10:26] yeah, forgot about that.. saves 1 char more than my seq solution. ty [10:26] actually no, since seq would need to be surrounded by ` or with $() [10:33] So yours saves 3 characters [10:33] ;-) [11:01] anyone here looked at "snappy-desktop" or managed to get Unity8 ? [11:02] I tried the unity8-lxc session, but it didn't ever build successfully [11:02] basically, I just want a ISO/USB that I can boot from and test drive. [11:16] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8DesktopIso This? [11:16] Got it from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8Desktop [13:25] theblazehen: thanks. that link is from 2014, and the "daily live" link is dead [13:31] regarding UDS: Am I correct that the sessions start 16h00 SA time?

Refusing to connect [21:13] fone them and complain' [21:13] then tries to reconncet [21:14] So I tried setting up a tor connection, but freenode doesn't support tor atm. Set up SSL and now it magically works [21:15] ya but you shouldnt need to hassle like that [21:15] irc works easy normally [21:16] 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] ok [21:16] How have you been Kilos? [21:16] ive been good ty, just tired [21:17] would have been in bed hours ago if not for a board meeting [21:17] Oh alright.
