| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 08:09 |
| awilkins | Morning | 08:42 |
| awilkins | Today's annoyance ; running 16.04.1 on a Dell 5510 - the GUI libraries are drawing artefacts that look like stuck pixels | 08:43 |
| awilkins | There's one in the menu bar when it draws the menu (other workspaces are clean until you also draw a menu on those) | 08:44 |
| awilkins | Firefox also has one in the tab near the close button (but only when you maximise the window) | 08:44 |
| awilkins | Tried nouveau and nv, both do it, so I suspect it's to do with the libraries | 08:46 |
| davmor2 | awilkins: and that right there is why the Conservatives are trying to close the Libraries ;) | 08:48 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Wednesday, and happy Lazy Lion Day! 😃 ♌ | 09:21 |

| BigRedS_ | Morning All! | 13:37 |
| popey | hello BigRedS_ | 13:37 |
| BigRedS_ | Ooh, I've acquired an underscore, maybe it has been too long... | 13:37 |
| daftykins | you've grown a tail! | 13:38 |
| christel | nice tail :) | 13:38 |
| popey | is it a tail or a no-tail? | 13:38 |
| diddledan | tail -f | 13:39 |
| BigRedS_ | So, yeah, what've I missed? :) | 13:40 |
| BigRedS_ | apart from apparently losing an irc client instance somewhere | 13:41 |
| BigRedS | aha! Found it! | 13:55 |
| diddledan | lol, find the irc client | 13:56 |
| diddledan | how many boxes do you have that you can't remember where your irc is? :-p | 13:56 |
| daftykins | :> | 13:56 |
| knightwise | diddledan: I know that story | 13:56 |
| daftykins | that reminds me of that bash.org quote | 13:57 |
| daftykins | "i have a box, responds to ping, but i can't find it" | 13:57 |
| knightwise | turns out i forgot all about a rasp py i tucked behind the tv | 13:57 |
| knightwise | that moment you need to DDos your own gear | 13:57 |
| diddledan | lmao | 13:57 |
| daftykins | er what | 13:57 |
| BigRedS | haha, yeah, we set up wifi monitoring here, to discover rogue wifi hotspots that people might set up | 13:57 |
| daftykins | unplugging has an amazingly high effective rate | 13:57 |
| BigRedS | and then weren't really sure what we could do once we'd identified one. How do you tell where it is? | 13:57 |
| daftykins | so your APs are reporting finding them? | 13:58 |
| BigRedS | well it hasn't yet in anger | 13:58 |
| diddledan | you could set-up one of those fake access points that hackers use | 13:58 |
| daftykins | diddledan: i know you're in a darkened room with shades on at your PC | 14:00 |
| diddledan | daftykins: my curtains are closed! | 14:00 |
| daftykins | s/shades/sunglasses | 14:00 |
| diddledan | so yes, it's a darkened room :-p | 14:00 |
| diddledan | curtains closed, lights off | 14:00 |
| daftykins | sunglasses on | 14:01 |

| daftykins | ugh post office etc refuse to ship phone batteries now, amazed how i got this thing in the first place, but now couriers want £11 to send it | 14:47 |
| diddledan | :-( | 14:47 |
| diddledan | sucky nuts | 14:47 |
| daftykins | a NZ guy had the same issues recently as he was trying to get some ecig batteries shipped over from China or something like that, nobody will do it | 14:49 |
| daftykins | somehow he's got some stuck in England now XD | 14:49 |
| daftykins | not quite sure on that route... | 14:49 |
| foobarry | mostly chinese hotwheels now | 14:55 |
| popey | yeah, we couldn't ship a tablet to India recently, nobody would take it | 15:01 |
| daftykins | seems DPD were ok with taking it up to England by ship, but for £11 | 15:01 |
| diddledan | how do the phone companies do it I wonder? | 15:03 |

| daftykins | not my cup of coffee, them | 21:03 |

| daftykins | never met the guy! | 21:08 |
| daftykins | :D | 21:08 |
| zmoylan-pi | he nearly brought peas to the mid east... :-P | 21:10 |
| daftykins | i'm green with envy | 21:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | and me just after posting kermits it's not easy been green in another channel... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpiIWMWWVco | 21:15 |

| daftykins | hrmm got an old server setup to mess with, but i can't think of much to do :) | 21:42 |
| zmoylan-pi | install novell \o/ :-) | 21:46 |
| daftykins | ;) | 21:46 |
| daftykins | right now it's a desktop motherboard with 4GB RAM, a core 2 duo and a 40GB value SSD with ubuntu server 14.04 on it | 21:46 |
| zmoylan-pi | novell would snot along on that | 21:47 |
| daftykins | also got one of my fave 3ware 3Gb/sec SATA RAID controllers in there, 8 port i think | 21:47 |
| daftykins | this guy is making such slow progress... | 21:48 |
| diddledan | while I was faffing about with my second box the other night I managed to cut a finger. no pc surgery is complete unless you spill a ton of blood | 21:52 |
| diddledan | plus, the blood appeases the gods | 21:53 |
| zmoylan-pi | no blood sacrifice, the job is unfinished | 21:53 |
| daftykins | i always felt that way with new builds :D | 21:55 |
| diddledan | I didn't even feel it, but my finger was covered in blood when I pulled it out \o/ | 21:55 |
| zmoylan-pi | the trick is to make it so some other staff member makes the blood sacrifice... | 21:55 |
| daftykins | but it's how i leave my mark on the world! | 21:58 |
| zmoylan-pi | i've been very careful since my first job in a shop with a deli counter and meat slicer... been told that this machine will cut you at some point. everyone cuts themselves on it... | 21:59 |
| daftykins | :D | 22:00 |
| zmoylan-pi | high staff turnover and in the 8 months i was there i saw about 20 people cut themselves on it... that bugger didn't mess around | 22:00 |
| zmoylan-pi | came close but i was the first never to draw blood on it... | 22:01 |
| === Chunkyz_ is now known as BobDylan | ||
| === BobDylan is now known as YaM0M | ||
| diddledan | those things are lethal | 22:29 |
| zmoylan-pi | yeah, i kinda got to know what the scream of a person cutting the tip of their finger off versus someone cutting down to the bone was | 22:30 |
| daftykins | :S | 22:30 |
| daftykins | wonder if metal tipped gloves exist :) | 22:30 |
| zmoylan-pi | pretty much the same reaction though, run in with kitchen towel roll or toilet roll to staunch the blood | 22:31 |
| daftykins | so how'd you stay away from that duty? :) | 22:32 |
| zmoylan-pi | then trying to nonchantly discretely clean the machine and not allow any meat cut till that was done while people impatiently wanted 2 slices of corn beef while someone was standing there with a hand wrapped in bandages waiting for lift to hospital | 22:32 |
| zmoylan-pi | i was stock room person as i rotated stock correctly unlike most... this had it's own icky duty... been handed a shovel and been asked to take out the mouse the owner stamped to death... | 22:34 |
| daftykins | :( | 22:40 |
| daftykins | stock rotation on shelves is a pig | 22:40 |
| daftykins | i did that once i became legal employment age! | 22:40 |
| zmoylan-pi | but it has to be done | 22:40 |
| zmoylan-pi | especially for things like milk, bread | 22:41 |
| daftykins | yep | 22:41 |
| daftykins | i've seen some lately where it seems they don't bother | 22:41 |
| === YaM0M is now known as Chunkyz | ||
| daftykins | milk was the most annoying i think :) | 22:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | what annoyed me most about milk was when i was in there's never be more than 2-3 dates on the milk in the fridge but if i took a day or two off it was chaotic when i got back and it would take 2-3 days to get it all back in line | 22:42 |
| daftykins | oof! no standards in folk - i had much the same with keeping racks tidy in a server room | 22:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | now i make sure everyone sees my hammer collection and let their imagination work out what i'll do to them if they muck up my neat and tidy system... | 22:44 |

| flying_sausages | Hello people, anyone knows how to upgrade 10.04 to 16.04? | 23:46 |
| daftykins | clean install | 23:46 |
| daftykins | no other approach would be sane | 23:46 |
| flying_sausages | daftykins is there any way I could do that without the use of CDs or USBs? Sadly I have none available to me | 23:47 |
| daftykins | why? | 23:48 |
| daftykins | what are the circumstances surrounding this odd scenario? | 23:48 |
| flying_sausages | daftykins Cannot for the love of god find CD/DVDs and for some reason the PC just won't boot off of any USB stick | 23:48 |
| flying_sausages | it's from like 2006 | 23:48 |
| daftykins | is this thing a production server | 23:49 |
| daftykins | ? | 23:49 |
| flying_sausages | nope, just an old home desktop that doesn't have good win10 drivers | 23:49 |
| flying_sausages | *for graphics | 23:50 |
| daftykins | why's it running 10.04 though? that's ancient | 23:50 |
| flying_sausages | so it's throwing 4:3 onto a 16:9 | 23:50 |
| flying_sausages | Yeah, that was the last time I used a CD to burn an iso :L | 23:50 |
| daftykins | !ab | 23:50 |
| daftykins | blech | 23:50 |
| flying_sausages | I know, sad times... | 23:50 |
| ali1234 | i know how to do it | 23:51 |
| ali1234 | you have to point the updater at oldrelease | 23:51 |
| daftykins | no, your first question was the wrong question, you asked how to do what you're thinking - not the actual task | 23:51 |
| ali1234 | then upgrade to 12.04 | 23:51 |
| ali1234 | then after you have done that you can upgrade to 16.04 | 23:51 |
| flying_sausages | and because do-release-upgrade runs in a weird screen it won't read me the read the whole log so I can't even try fix it | 23:51 |
| flying_sausages | ali1234 did that, got 550 packages, but after that can't do-rel | 23:52 |
| daftykins | if you installed without a separate /boot, you can download a 16.04.1 ISO and put it in /boot and boot it directly from GRUB | 23:52 |
| flying_sausages | daftykins sorry, don't get what you're saying..? | 23:52 |
| flying_sausages | Hmmmmmmmm that's a good idea | 23:52 |
| ali1234 | are you running do-release-upgrade on ssh? | 23:52 |
| flying_sausages | ali1234 nope local | 23:53 |
| daftykins | or perhaps a PLOP ISO can be booted from GRUB and then you could chainload your flash drive of 16.04 | 23:53 |
| daftykins | both methods avoid sitting waiting for entire upgrades through the releases | 23:53 |
| flying_sausages | daftykins do you think you could point me to a how-to on how to boot from an iso through grub? | 23:54 |
| daftykins | i'd be starting at google, so i might as well remove the middle man and let you do it direct | 23:54 |
| flying_sausages | !ddg boot iso from grub | 23:54 |
| lubotu3 | flying_sausages: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:54 |
| daftykins | https://www.plop.at/en/bootmanager/download.html | 23:55 |
| daftykins | come to think of it, perhaps GRUB can be directly instructed how to pass over to the USB, too | 23:55 |
| diddledan | I believe it can do both | 23:55 |
| flying_sausages | daftykins ah sweet, so I can skip this dumb-ass bios! | 23:56 |
| diddledan | if you have a floppy drive and a separate PC you could even do an etherboot | 23:56 |
| daftykins | i've a feeling you've just misconfigured it, but yeah probably | 23:56 |
| daftykins | in my experience those always require more troubleshooting to even get going | 23:56 |
| daftykins | flying_sausages: what's this graphics card btw? | 23:57 |
| daftykins | also why'd you come here instead of #ubuntu ? | 23:57 |
| diddledan | I'm guessing an AGP unit | 23:57 |
| flying_sausages | daftykins let me check | 23:57 |
| flying_sausages | Well, rooms with 2000 users have a bit of a different dynamic than rooms with 93 :p | 23:57 |
| flying_sausages | Thanks so much for the help! | 23:57 |
| daftykins | yes but one is support and one isn't | 23:58 |
| daftykins | :P | 23:58 |
| flying_sausages | daftykins is the main ubuntu the support one? | 23:58 |
| flying_sausages | didn't know, first time I come to freenode for help | 23:58 |
| daftykins | topics tell all | 23:59 |
