[03:07] <silencecm> xpistos: I experimented with this myself. I wrote a python script that listens for USB events and runs scripts based on it. You could use the android adb tool to push and pull files once you know the uuid of the device
[03:07] <silencecm> xpistos: Here's a blog post I wrote regarding this https://rileymacdonald.ca/2017/09/16/ubuntu-linux-how-to-listen-to-usb-port-events/
[03:24] <trekkie1701c> So, fun problem and solution I encountered today.  After a few oddities with my test server having or not having packages that were pre-installed on my EC2 instance, I decided to see about manually fixing that so that I didn't have surprises about things working in test but then not working on my live server.  So I installed the cloud metapackage and all that.
[03:25] <trekkie1701c> This rendered the system unbootable, so I just uninstalled the metapackage and the packages it installed.  Or rather, the packages contained with it.  So it removed pretty much everything from the base system and it could no longer use a network interface or read from cdrom.
[03:26] <trekkie1701c> Fortunately it turns out you can use the installation cd to copy it's own installation repos to the filesystem, then play around with some dpkg settings to lie about the version info of what you do have installed to force it to reinstall the base system so it can be fixed properly.
[11:55] <cpaelzer> hallyn: hi, well I added it to the top of the decsription why it is disabled :-)
[11:55] <cpaelzer> hallyn: TL;DR - no usage at all in the last 6 months so I considered the effort to get it going again not worth
[11:56] <cpaelzer> hallyn: I was using some LP api to get usage stats and there seemed to be only 5 downloads (and I had 5 when I initially tested)
[11:56] <cpaelzer> hallyn: did you really want to use it or did you cross this some other way?
[15:38] <gunix> is there anyway with ceph knowledge active?
[17:19] <HuiBuuh> hey hou, I tried to install mate on my server and then access it with VNC, I used TigerVNC for that but I only get a black screen. Does anyone know what could be my issue?
