[06:44] <kais3n>  One question. I testing currenlty 16.04. Currently there is a problem with encypted disk on the boot. The function itself works but you don't see the prompt. Where should I report that?
[19:09] <craysiii> darkxst are you running 16.04 on a real machine?
[20:47] <HoppingMadMan> Hey, everyone, I was just wondering if anyone can point me to somewhere I can jump in and help out the Ubuntu-Gnome project out
[21:08] <darkxst> craysiii, yes, have been running it on my main machine since last year
[21:09] <darkxst> HoppingMadMan, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/GettingInvolved/JoinUs
[21:15] <craysiii> do you think i should wait for official release to install?
[21:15] <HoppingMadMan> Thanks darkxst
[21:17] <darkxst> craysiii, no, its stable enough now, and feature freeze is this week, so shouldnt go breaking
[21:17] <craysiii> then i will wait until next week :)
[21:17] <craysiii> lol
[21:20] <darkxst> why wait?
[21:24] <craysiii> im going to order another SSD and make it my /home
[21:32] <craysiii> do you think 64gb should be enough for linux install itself
[21:33] <HoppingMadMan> craysiii I have a 64gb SSD and it is ok, but if I had the money I would have gone with something with more space
[21:35] <craysiii> well im planning on having 64GB / , 256GB /home , and a 1TB storage hdd
[21:36] <HoppingMadMan> Yeah that will do, I would if I could maybe go for a 120GB
[21:36] <darkxst> 64GB is plenty for /
[21:38] <HoppingMadMan> Speaking on SSD, I was reading that if they are not booted in awhile they can die, now I am not up on SSD but, dose this hold any truth
[21:38] <craysiii> ???
[21:38] <darkxst> HoppingMadMan, no
[21:38] <craysiii> that would be nuts
[21:39] <HoppingMadMan> Ok, thanks guys, I read that and was like what... That can't be true
[21:40] <HoppingMadMan> Yeah it dose seem nuts
[21:41] <HoppingMadMan> Just asking I am not up on my knowledge on SSD, Going to have to start as I am setting up my business, and I want to offer SSD in my our servers for clients
[21:47] <darkxst> HoppingMadMan, its possibly true in the long-term, like if its not powered on for years
[21:48] <HoppingMadMan> Oh ok, yeah its just my server back in Australia hasn't been powered on in about 3 years now and it has a SSD as its main drive, and heading back there in a few months and I think I might have to buy a new SSD
[21:54] <craysiii> i would prob buy new ones anyway
[21:54] <darkxst> it wouldnt physically be dead
[21:54] <darkxst> but at some point an SSD will forget what is stored on it
[21:55] <HoppingMadMan> Yeah going to have to buy a lot of stuff, new laptop is on top of the list
[21:55] <craysiii> i really recommend samsung evo or pro ssd
[21:55] <craysiii> and so does most of the internet
[21:56] <HoppingMadMan> Ok, keep that in mind thanks
[21:57] <HoppingMadMan> Yeah, got any good recommendation for Linux Laptop that is newish and runs Linux with not much tweaks?
[22:01] <craysiii> i haven't one myself but i've heard good things about system76
[22:01] <HoppingMadMan> Problem with that is no shipping to Australia and if you can they charge lots
[22:02] <craysiii> hm
[22:03] <craysiii> most laptops are honestly crap, i would use a desktop but i understand if you need mobility
[22:05] <darkxst> HoppingMadMan, I tend to stick with thinkpads
[22:05] <darkxst> but these days most laptops will work fine, you will likely only hit issues if you buy one that is super new
[22:05] <craysiii> yeah lenovo is good but im personally butthurt because their custom SLI config in my laptop isn't supported by linux
[22:06] <craysiii> :P
[22:07] <darkxst> craysiii, there is no SLI support on linux at all
[22:08] <craysiii> uhh
[22:08] <craysiii> im pretty sure there is?
[22:11] <darkxst> the driver supports it, but little to no software can actually utilize it on linux
[22:11] <craysiii> right, you need to construct the profile yourself
[22:12] <craysiii> but what im saying is the driver didn't support mine
[22:13] <craysiii> anyway since it didn't work, i was forced to use just 1 gpu, which made it kinda pointless, so i was forced to windows, but since i hate windows i just dont use it anymore
[22:56] <craysiii> what version of the linux kernel is 16.04 running?
[23:48] <darkxst> craysiii, 4.4
[23:49] <darkxst> 4.5 will be released too late to make it in
