myles | Hi there wondering if anyone can give me a little with a systemd related issue? | 13:03 |
penguin42 | only if you ask | 13:03 |
myles | haha thanks....so avery time i issue the systemd command i get the follow,...Trying to run as user instance, but $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set. | 13:04 |
penguin42 | myles: It's rare to actually run the systemd command - if you're trying to modify something you normally run the systemctl command | 13:06 |
myles | penguin42: Thanks for that, Ive never actually used systemd so just trying to get to grips with it a bit. the systemctl command seem to execute with no issues so ill work from there :) | 13:08 |
penguin42 | myles: Yep it's mostly you use that to control it - e.g. systemctl restart foo | 13:08 |
myles | penguin42: That makes sense now that you say it. Thanks for putting me on the right track! | 13:09 |
penguin42 | np | 13:10 |

diddledan | watching a new series on amazon - game of silence - pretty intriguing | 18:52 |
diddledan | don't you love when you cough so hard that you fart? | 19:09 |
diddledan | :-p | 19:09 |
diddledan | it's mostly the feeling of relief when you realise you haven't followed-through | 19:10 |
daftykins | after further testing today, some ALSA buffering numbers is all it took to calm my Onkyo down, my my | 19:25 |
daftykins | now i have £60 of DAC and case and so on ordered that i don't need... | 19:25 |
daftykins | diddledan: a mate has had two post-shower sneezes that have resulted in the follow through, followed by rapid second showers and laundry duty ;) | 19:26 |
diddledan | buffering: s/f/g/ | 19:29 |
daftykins | rude | 19:29 |
diddledan | ALSA buffering sounds nasty | 19:29 |
daftykins | in a way i'm pleased, but having already ordered kit it's kind of a pain it hasn't played up again XD | 19:30 |
diddledan | typical | 19:30 |
daftykins | yep! | 19:32 |
daftykins | i didn't really believe that forum thread i linked you to would be of any use | 19:32 |
m6lpi | evening all | 20:16 |
daftykins | \o | 20:16 |
m6lpi | I have a 16.04 server | 20:16 |
m6lpi | there's a service that looks like it's not starting an init script on boot | 20:17 |
daftykins | sounds normal, since 16.04 doesn't use init ;D | 20:17 |
m6lpi | can I safely symlink the script in to the appropriate /etc/rcX.d dir ? | 20:17 |
m6lpi | o..k.. | 20:18 |
m6lpi | so, how do I make it fire on boot ? | 20:18 |
daftykins | first off, what are you talking about? you don't ask for advice without details | 20:18 |
m6lpi | zimbra | 20:19 |
m6lpi | if, after it boots, I ssh in and manually poke the init script it works just fine | 20:20 |
daftykins | i suspect you could have found a better way to install it to begin with if it isn't behaving properly | 20:20 |
m6lpi | I used their install system | 20:21 |
m6lpi | might just be easier to add it to rc.local | 20:22 |
daftykins | strikes me as a mistaken approach | 20:24 |
m6lpi | sure, I am open to the idea of doing it right though | 20:24 |
Nokaji | prior to upgrade (14.04~16.04) gedit used to have tab buttons for stuff like copy and paste - can I get this back? | 20:34 |
daftykins | like a toolbar? | 20:36 |
daftykins | ask in #ubuntu | 20:36 |
Nokaji | hmh, ... i need to install older version - solved | 20:38 |
SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 20:56 |
* diddledan twirls the tassles | 20:57 | |
daftykins | old girl trying to line me up with a smashed iPhone 6 job o0 | 22:10 |
diddledan | yey? | 22:10 |
daftykins | not sure ;) kinda more trouble than they're worth really | 22:11 |
daftykins | especially when you consider the typical iPhone owner... | 22:11 |
daftykins | average, i should say | 22:11 |
* diddledan hides his ipwn | 22:13 | |
daftykins | D: why would you do that to yourself? :P | 22:13 |
diddledan | I believe it's called penance | 22:13 |
zmoylan-pi | you have to use some horrible tech just so you can spot great tech when you find it... | 22:15 |
diddledan | is that like a diamond in the rough? | 22:15 |
zmoylan-pi | i thought the new iphones were a mass of glue that made unauthorised repairs... complicated? | 22:19 |
daftykins | nope even easier than older ones | 22:20 |
daftykins | well for the display etc | 22:21 |
zmoylan-pi | well i kinda guess that's the one bit that's replaced the most... | 22:21 |
daftykins | yeah | 22:22 |
daftykins | i hear the components on the motherboard are glued a fair chunk | 22:22 |
daftykins | in a repair video i saw, the lady had to scrape away at the PCB to get in and under before popping a couple of resistors off | 22:22 |
zmoylan-pi | i watch people using devices in public and the amount of broken screens i see still in use amuses me | 22:23 |
daftykins | it's amazing the low standards yeah, seems to me they can't get by for 5 minutes without them even if they did know someone that can fix it | 22:23 |
daftykins | i've got some spare phones here but they won't have the right SIM size to even offer as a loaner | 22:24 |
zmoylan-pi | and i am detecting a small increase of dumb phones in use... it's weird that they are ancient compared to the new dumbphones still been sold... | 22:25 |
daftykins | must be things folks still have in a cupboard somewhere | 22:25 |
daftykins | if it weren't for the fact the batteries are probably shot, i'd bet many would consider going back | 22:26 |
zmoylan-pi | that would be my guess... people with pre smartphone nokias instead of the newer variants... and in some cases i see them using the nokias after putting away smartphone | 22:26 |
zmoylan-pi | i suspect some of the nokias are still working on their original charge... :-) | 22:26 |
zmoylan-pi | i have used one nokia for 3 days in airplane mode when it had been left switched off and left 18 months after it's last charge... | 22:27 |
daftykins | err what use is a nokia in airplane mode XD | 22:28 |
zmoylan-pi | i was in hospital and they had me in room with no access to power points for android phone or my iphone. so i powered them down except for 1 hour a day to deal with sms and used nokia e61 as ereader and mp3 player | 22:29 |
zmoylan-pi | and games | 22:29 |
daftykins | i'd have preferred a crossword | 22:30 |
daftykins | or a printed book :P | 22:30 |
zmoylan-pi | well i had sodoku and boggle as games... | 22:30 |
daftykins | my hospitals wifi was all super locked down, i couldn't RDP home or even IRC | 22:31 |
zmoylan-pi | this was pre hospital having wifi for patients... | 22:31 |
daftykins | you've got to wonder now really with what folks use it for, i keep hearing from mates that they use netflix etc. in hotels | 22:32 |
zmoylan-pi | now my dumb nokia asha 302 does irc, email, web, rss, ereader, games, twitter. not prettily but well enough and not have to worry about battery | 22:32 |
daftykins | i'd feel that were a bit immoral because you'd probably be screwing everyone else over with the bandwidth if it's a bad setup | 22:32 |
zmoylan-pi | yeah, 1 person viewing netflix is selfish, ditto any form of video or streaming | 22:33 |
zmoylan-pi | unless the setup is incredible but how often does that happen? | 22:33 |
daftykins | indeed | 22:33 |
daftykins | not something i would do in a hotel | 22:34 |
zmoylan-pi | oh and also the 302 does mp3s and radio... | 22:34 |
* zmoylan-pi pats the 302. thought i had lost it over the weekend when it fell out my pocket and got crunched under a car seat... nary a scratch | 22:34 | |
