[02:53] <mappps> hi all
[02:53] <mappps> so brexit eh
[02:53] <mappps> who cares
[02:58] <ali1234> not me
[02:59] <mappps> nor me;D people here are worried, oh no spain migh close the border..nah..12,000 people work here
[03:00] <mappps> they might make queues..sure
[06:35] <Myrtti> I wonder if I need to continue staying in my pillow fort
[06:37] <zmoylan-pi> did you bring supplies into the fort to last a few days?
[06:38] <Myrtti> I wish I had, should've locked myself in without internet
[06:39] <zmoylan-pi> do you have a loyal minion who can be summoned to get supplies sent in?
[06:42] <Myrtti> look, I appreciate the wish and need of Britons to roll sleeves up and start working on what from now, but I hope and wish people remember that there are going to be people that will have to do all that AND possibly in a place that doesn't feel quite so safe, welcoming and home anymore.
[06:43] <Myrtti> zmoylan-pi: yeah, to some degree
[06:43] <zmoylan-pi> far right seem to have been on the streets across all of europe over the weekend.... even 20 or so muppets in dublin allegedly
[06:47] <Myrtti> I live in East Anglia close to those notes left through the Polish people's mail boxes. I've known the area isn't the most welcoming to any immigrants since first visiting here in election season, but it still came as a shock.
[06:58] <zmoylan-pi> fingers crossed things settle down soon... :-(
[07:05] <MooDoo> morning al
[07:57] <davmor2> Morning all

[10:23] <BigRedS> bashrc: try Fluff Busting Purity; I've filtered out *most* of the politics from mine
[10:23] <BigRedS> that said, there's not really terribly much left...
[10:34] <davmor2> JamesTait: I think that covers us right?
[10:39] <JamesTait> davmor2, it's cheeky, but yes. ☺
[10:41] <iFunction> Hi
[12:53] <diddledan> morning
[16:00] <velus> hey all, does ubuntu support finger print login?
[16:01] <Myrtti> depends on the device, I've heard rumours that there might be a device that works, but they were very distant and faint rumours
[16:01] <Myrtti> well, "works" in some value of working
[16:22] <ali1234> there is at least one laptop which is supposedly ubuntu certified which contains a fingerprint reader, however i was never able to get a straight answer on whether or not it works
[16:22] <ali1234> also that was several years ago
[17:06] <diddledan> daftykins: just had a looksee to determine if I can flash that amd gfx card I've borked. I don't have enough power connectors to power it in addition to my normal gfx
[17:07] <diddledan> I've only got two gfx power headers, where one is used for my nvidia and the amd requires two
[17:11] <diddledan> I'll have to take some time to pull-out my nvidia and put a cheapy passive card in that I've got to try the actual flash
[17:14] <diddledan> interesting. redhat just announced they're supporting openjdk on windows now
[17:14] <diddledan> they're doing "devnation" keynote right now: https://youtu.be/nxnIpgHQ-Gw
[18:04] <ali1234> is there a way to make the ubuntu installer automatically partition a blank drive without creating swap?
[18:49] <popey> ali1234: you could pass it a pre-seed which specifies a different disk format
[18:49] <popey> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopCDOptions
[18:49] <ali1234> hmm
[18:50] <ali1234> ythat would mean writing my own preseed?
[18:50] <ali1234> i could also just delete the swap file and then resize the root partition
[18:51] <popey> you could fiddle the existing one
[18:51] <popey> the disk layout bit isn't hard
[18:51] <ali1234> where can i find it?
[18:51] <ali1234> and how do i get my modified one onto the installer?
[18:52] <ali1234> put it on a webserver and then pass the url at the boot prompt?
[18:52] <popey> i think so
[18:52] <popey> not tried for a while
[18:54] <ali1234> i ordered a new computer with 32GB... i don't really want to use 20% of my SSD for swap...
[18:58] <popey> use manual partitioning?
[18:58] <ali1234> i don't know how any more
[18:58] <ali1234> new computer is EFI
[19:00] <davmor2> ali1234: you could use kickstart
[19:05] <ali1234> using a preseed doesn't appear to help
[19:05] <ali1234> it offers the same choices as the menus, and i'd have to define the partitions i want manually
[19:08] <velusuni> hey all
[19:09] <popey> hello
[19:20] <davmor2> ali1234: well yes you would have to do that, but it could then be automated at least
[19:20] <davmor2> velusuni: hello
[19:20] <ali1234> as i said, i don't know how to manually partition. just want exactly what the installer would give me, except without a swap partition
[19:20] <ali1234> i only need to do this once
[19:21] <davmor2> ali1234: no then, why do you want to drop swap
[19:22] <ali1234> because i will have 32GB of RAM
[19:22] <davmor2> ali1234: yes and?
[19:22] <popey> yeah, manually partitioning step
[19:23] <ali1234> and the installer will therefore create a 32GB swap partition on my SSD, wasting a large percentage of it
[19:23] <popey> personally, I'd go through the installer, let it make swap then delete it afterwards and expand root
[19:23] <ali1234> yeah, i think that is what i am going to have to do
[19:23] <popey> that way you get all the efi stuff setup correctly
[19:23] <popey> dirty, but works
[19:23] <davmor2> ali1234: what popey said
[19:23] <ali1234> not even that dirty... expanding is trivial
[19:24] <popey> true
[19:24] <ali1234> shrinking is the tricky one
[20:21] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi
[20:21] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi intrbiz
[20:22] <intrbiz> SebthreeBQM10HD: Hi
[21:31] <ali1234> damn. is hould have put some money on england losing 2-1 to iceland. i totally called that
[22:14] <daftykins> diddledan: or pick up a molex adapter
[22:18] <popey> SebthreeBQM10HD: seen https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/nexdock-the-world-s-most-affordable-laptop--2#/updates ?
[22:19] <popey> maybe you won't be getting your nexdock any time soon, what with their factory burning down
[22:20] <zmoylan-pi> saves time on the recall of a lot of dangerous batteries? :-P
[22:26] <daftykins> saves time faking a load of delays too ;)
[22:51] <zmoylan-pi> it's a nice idea, i'd like a cheap keyboard and screen to chuck a rasp pi into.  the pi-top is nice but i could get a full laptop for that money
[23:12] <Ajath> how can i join your team ?
[23:12] <daftykins> wat
[23:13] <Ajath> i like ubuntu
[23:13] <Ajath> i need ubuntu free cd's
[23:13] <daftykins> make them
[23:14] <Ajath> how can i get shipping to my country
[23:14] <daftykins> this is -uk, you probably want a support channel or perhaps #ubuntu-discuss
[23:15] <Ajath> yes
[23:15] <Ajath> how can i support ?
[23:15] <Ajath> to ubuntu
[23:15] <daftykins> no tht's not what i meant
