---|---|---|
Guest123 | Does the installer team have their own channel? | 00:02 |
OerHeks | i just read mr dustin blog with suggestions http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2017/04/thank-you-note-to-hackernews.html | 00:02 |
OerHeks | maybe it is #ubuntu-installer https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList/Team | 00:04 |
OerHeks | there is no mailing list https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer | 00:05 |

ducasse | ok, thanks. quiet saturday here. | 16:22 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: both nice movies | 16:23 |
lotuspsychje | hey baizon | 16:24 |
lotuspsychje | http://www.thelinuxrain.com/articles/heres-how-gnome-shell-can-look-like-ubuntu-unity | 16:27 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 16:27 |
lotuspsychje | alot of unity lovers out there | 16:27 |
baizon | hmm, but i think ill switch from unity to kde | 16:29 |
baizon | and try to make it look like unity | 16:30 |
baizon | i dislike gnome very very much | 16:30 |
lotuspsychje | http://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Shuttleworth-More-G-Comments | 16:30 |
lotuspsychje | gnome with unity ideas lol | 16:30 |
lotuspsychje | snaps will continue | 16:32 |
baizon | but unity 8 wont :( | 16:35 |
lotuspsychje | yeah too bad, would have been nice to have the choice | 16:36 |
lotuspsychje | baizon: lets hope the ubports guys find a big breakthrough | 16:37 |
lotuspsychje | someone remember the variables trigger? | 16:37 |
baizon | that will take a long time | 16:39 |
baizon | they dont have the resources i think | 16:39 |
lotuspsychje | baizon: im not sure, cause mariogrip is on that project, he made a big deal on several phones | 16:40 |
lotuspsychje | baizon: but indeed, i understand its not the same as its supported by ubuntu by default.. | 16:41 |
lotuspsychje | wb Menzador | 17:07 |
Menzador | yo | 17:07 |
lotuspsychje | hey brunch875 | 17:17 |
immu_ubuntu | hi | 17:34 |
BenderRodriguez | immu_ubuntu: what is your thoughts on Shuttleworth's decisionto kill Unity | 17:42 |
immu_ubuntu | i respect his decision | 17:42 |
BenderRodriguez | ... | 17:42 |
* BenderRodriguez takes immu_ubuntu off his cool people | 17:42 | |
BenderRodriguez | list | 17:42 |
immu_ubuntu | but at the same time i am deeply saddened with the decision also | 17:43 |
BluesKaj | I suspect we kde/plasma users don't care one way or the other, at least I don't :-) | 17:44 |
immu_ubuntu | Unity8 was so close to completion but without support of others its hard to justify the cost that was draining the companies profitablity | 17:44 |
immu_ubuntu | can someone confirm if google services are down or not | 17:46 |
immu_ubuntu | hey BluesKaj whats up | 17:46 |
Menzador | BluesKaj: Lol, that's OK. I've been a GNOME advocate ever since I got my hands on the latest version of it :) | 17:46 |
BenderRodriguez | Really | 17:46 |
BluesKaj | afaik a lot of ubuntu users thought shuttleworth was taking Canonical in the wrong direction anyway | 17:46 |
BenderRodriguez | GNOME 3 was an attempt at joining the mobile/touchpad bandwagon | 17:47 |
Menzador | Which is interesting. | 17:47 |
BenderRodriguez | with it's huge UI buttons | 17:47 |
lotuspsychje | thats true BluesKaj | 17:47 |
ducasse | immu_ubuntu: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ | 17:47 |
BenderRodriguez | but it failed | 17:47 |
Menzador | BenderRodriguez: Actually no it didn't. GNOME wasn't actually ever trying to cater to the mobile market. I can't think of a single touch device that shipped with GNOME. | 17:47 |
Menzador | But yes, I think Adwaita should be toned down a bit | 17:48 |
immu_ubuntu | i cant sign into google | 17:48 |
Menzador | Oh, that *is* something I need to do, lol | 17:48 |
ducasse | immu_ubuntu: offtopic here | 17:49 |
immu_ubuntu | ducasse: did i say something on topic | 17:50 |
BluesKaj | hi immu_ubuntu , just transferring some files to friends hdd , and what's up with you? | 17:51 |
immu_ubuntu | BluesKaj: after distro hopping i am back with ubuntu | 17:51 |
BluesKaj | good choice immu_ubuntu , i've been playing around with debian stretch | 17:52 |
BenderRodriguez | Menzador: What? The entire UI of Gnome 3 was designed around touch based devices | 17:55 |
immu_ubuntu | BluesKaj: how is it? | 17:55 |
BenderRodriguez | it even has purpose built touch gesture support documented: https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.14/touchscreen-gestures.html.en | 17:55 |
BenderRodriguez | So yes, it was designed for touch | 17:55 |
BenderRodriguez | Keep in mind this was around a time when EVERYONE thought Mobile will be everything and desktop will be dead within a few years | 17:56 |
BenderRodriguez | That hasn't happened and the result is a disjoined project that has lots its way | 17:56 |
BenderRodriguez | it's tragic, actually | 17:56 |
BenderRodriguez | disjointed* | 17:56 |
BluesKaj | immu_ubuntu: so far so good, I like it ...it's not prepackaged as much as kubuntu | 17:57 |
immu_ubuntu | you are always into kde BluesKaj : | 17:58 |
BluesKaj | immu_ubuntu: for about 12 yrs now | 17:58 |
immu_ubuntu | which is a premier KDE distro but with .deb compatiblity | 17:59 |
immu_ubuntu | BluesKaj: which is a premier KDE distro but with .deb compatiblity | 18:00 |
Menzador | BenderRodriguez: Oh look, GNOME released touch-screen gestures. SEVEN releases after the initial 3.0 release. | 18:00 |
BluesKaj | kubuntuis probly first thenothers like netrunner and mint | 18:01 |
immu_ubuntu | i just love the hud of ubuntu BluesKaj | 18:01 |
immu_ubuntu | BluesKaj: i cant live without it | 18:03 |
* BluesKaj nods | 18:03 | |
immu_ubuntu | which kde are u using now? BluesKaj | 18:07 |
BluesKaj | kde/plasma 5.8.6 | 18:08 |
Menzador | BluesKaj: Do you use the Kubuntu Backports PPA? | 18:08 |
BluesKaj | on debian stretch, think plasma 5.9 on kubuntu zesty | 18:09 |
immu_ubuntu | manjaro has very good KDE release | 18:09 |
Menzador | Oh, you're using DEE-bee-in :) | 18:09 |
BluesKaj | Menzador: i use ppas when asked to test the packages they contain , then i remove them immediately | 18:10 |
Menzador | Ah | 18:10 |
immu_ubuntu | brb BluesKaj | 18:11 |
immu_ubuntu | BluesKaj: back i am running 17.04, and gconf is not available | 18:17 |
immu_ubuntu | BluesKaj: you are running debian but you hangout here ???? | 18:18 |
lotuspsychje | immu_ubuntu: anyone is free to chat here | 18:18 |
immu_ubuntu | lotuspsychje: true, but just curious as maybe BluesKaj can best advise? | 18:19 |
BluesKaj | immu_ubuntu: I also run kubuntu zesty , try gconf2 | 18:20 |
immu_ubuntu | how many distros do you run? are they on VM or side by side BluesKaj | 18:21 |
BluesKaj | I use partitions, VMs aren't my style , too buggy | 18:22 |
BluesKaj | lots of users like VMs, but I haven't had much luck with them | 18:23 |
immu_ubuntu | The venerable gconf is no longer installed by default having been long superseded by gsettings. BluesKaj | 18:23 |
BluesKaj | ok | 18:24 |
immu_ubuntu | i need to file this has a bug issue as google chrome is not available in the distro | 18:25 |
immu_ubuntu | i had installed Ubuntu mate and then i install over it Ubuntu 17.04 so all my settings i believe where picked up by Ubuntu | 18:26 |
BluesKaj | the chrome deb is available at their site | 18:26 |
immu_ubuntu | i picked it up from their only | 18:26 |
immu_ubuntu | there only | 18:26 |
BluesKaj | the chrome repos was probly removed from sources.list.d when you installed 17.04 | 18:29 |
immu_ubuntu | not its gconf being removed from Ubuntu 17.04 | 18:40 |
immu | BluesKaj, can you reach youtube site | 18:51 |
daftykins | asking someone who might be on the other side of the world whether they can reach a given website is not a very sensible query | 18:52 |
ducasse | immu: i gave you a site that checks that earlier | 18:54 |
immu | thats not working | 18:54 |
daftykins | sounds like misconfigured DNS, but this is not a support channel | 18:55 |
immu | www.youtube.com’s server DNS address could not be found. | 18:55 |
immu | DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN | 18:55 |
daftykins | please take your query to #ubuntu | 18:55 |
BluesKaj | UAE probly blocks youtube | 19:03 |
daftykins | no doubt | 19:03 |
immu | nope i can watch it on my mobile BluesKaj | 19:03 |
immu_ | BluesKaj, back | 19:08 |
daftykins | still not a support channel, please go to #ubuntu | 19:08 |
immu_ | daftykins, thanks | 19:12 |

immu_ | wht is your prefered IRC software | 19:38 |
daftykins | irssi | 19:38 |
immu_ | gui based? | 19:39 |
daftykins | nope | 19:39 |
daftykins | hexchat is an acceptable GUI one | 19:40 |
ducasse | weechat here, which is pretty much the same thing as irssi | 19:40 |
immu_ | all available in ubuntu software or have to to use synaptic | 19:41 |
daftykins | !info irssi | 19:41 |
ubot5 | irssi (source: irssi): terminal based IRC client. In component main, is optional. Version 0.8.19-1ubuntu1.3 (xenial), package size 676 kB, installed size 2468 kB | 19:41 |
daftykins | !info hexchat | 19:41 |
ubot5 | hexchat (source: hexchat): IRC client for X based on X-Chat 2. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.10.2-1ubuntu3 (xenial), package size 330 kB, installed size 932 kB | 19:41 |
daftykins | the former. | 19:41 |
ducasse | everything in synaptic is available in ubuntu software, same sources. | 19:42 |
daftykins | ah my bad yeah, misread | 19:42 |
* OerHeks deletes software-center | 19:42 | |
immu_ | many IRC software are snap based | 19:42 |
daftykins | no reason for you to be using anything snap | 19:43 |
immu_ | daftykins, i installed two IRC software both are packaged in snap | 19:50 |
daftykins | ok, but there's not really any benefit or disadvantage to that that i can think of | 19:52 |
immu_ | daftykins, i can use a webbased IRC like kiwiIRC which i like but having a software is nice | 19:53 |
daftykins | yeah web based is usually rubbish | 19:53 |
ducasse | the confinement thing might make certain features not work right | 19:54 |
daftykins | plus when you come in a support channel on one, it doesn't look too great | 19:54 |
OerHeks | we always look great, no ? | 19:59 |
daftykins | ;D | 19:59 |
immu_ | BluesKaj, welcome back | 20:02 |

Bashing-om | Aggravation factor : Need to prune the lawn; messed with the lawn mower for 2 days - starts will not run ! Aggravated ! | 21:49 |
Bashing-om | But .. I am Here .. all is good :) | 21:50 |
OerHeks | :-) | 21:55 |
daftykins | Bashing-om: that sounds like a frustrating machine alright | 22:03 |
Bashing-om | In all Honesty - what I get for not taking care of my equipment . I did not put it up in the dry last fall :( A tarp just is not good enough ! | 22:06 |
daftykins | ah har | 22:07 |
daftykins | well, hindsight and all that :) | 22:08 |
Bashing-om | Uh HUh . Now, if I could I would kick my own behind :D | 22:09 |
daftykins | take up yoga for that one i think ;D | 22:10 |
Bashing-om | Puts me in mind : if legs bent the other way .. what shape would a chair be ? | 22:11 |
OerHeks | eat grass, be smart | 22:12 |
daftykins | hehe i love that question, mmm i suspect carpenters would get a challenge | 22:13 |
Bashing-om | OerHeks: Well, that is what it is made for .. eat more grass ! | 22:13 |
daftykins | then again a client had one of these for many years - https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/92/84/be/9284be9c0ded13c6b57aed1c06bc0875.jpg | 22:14 |
Bashing-om | daftykins: I have toyed with the chair shape - given the cirumstances - for several years . No good solution to this time . | 22:15 |
OerHeks | those chairs are good for your balance, still prefer a chair with a back-support | 22:17 |
daftykins | yeah, kinda forces your posture | 22:21 |
Bashing-om | I just glad I have a chair - and a place to put it :) - and a cushion for the back . | 22:22 |
daftykins | :D | 22:24 |
daftykins | yep simple things | 22:24 |
daftykins | i felt like i'd succeeded once i had a place to put the desk, PC, chair, mug of hot beverage and slice of cake | 22:24 |
Bashing-om | And cake too ! Wow ! | 22:26 |
daftykins | ooh yes, can't be without cake | 22:26 |
OerHeks | bacon & eggs | 22:30 |
daftykins | mm | 22:30 |
Bashing-om | black forest ham saammmich is doing well right now :P | 22:33 |
OerHeks | brie paris & chorizo spain | 22:33 |
