lubotu3Launchpad bug 1734147 in linux (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 17.10 corrupting BIOS - many LENOVO laptops models" [Critical,Confirmed]09:15
MooDooglad i don't have a lenovo09:23
diddledanit does seem telling that Ubuntu is randomly killing Lenovos and Microsoft had to prevent the Creator's Release of Windows from going to a slew of Lenovos, too, also due to EFI shenanigans11:08
zmoylan-piand if you turn off efi and use good old bios does the problem persist?11:57
MooDoowanna play tron in ssh ? ssh sshtron.zachlatta.com12:05
brobostigonwow, cool, :)12:11
diddledanlol: "vim keybindings for movement"12:14
diddledanso you can never get out12:14
zmoylan-piyou'll stay there till you learn vim like nature intended...12:19
AzelphurDoes anyone know of any software I can use to stream the video/audio from aa Windows PC to a Linux one? I have tried moonlight and it'd be perfect apart from the audio sounds horrible23:36
daftykinson the same network? why is file sharing or UPnP not viable?23:38
Azelphuron the same network, yes, because there is no file, I want to stream the display output.23:38
daftykinscan you backup with the actual task instead of that, sounds a bit x-y problem right now :>23:39
zmoylan-piaren't there entire protocols to do streaming from one device to another... i seem to remember a bunch of letter soups for sharing video audio last time i used windows23:39
Azelphurdaftykins: VR PC is in my office, and has a Vive connected to it via a long HDMI cable that runs into my lounge, HTPC is in my lounge. I want to be able to view the monitor of VR PC on my HTPC in the lounge, so that people can see what's going on in VR.23:40
daftykinsugh.23:40
ali1234so you want a steam link?23:40
daftykinsdon't think that's the same thing23:41
Azelphurali1234: yes, except that doesn't work ( see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZPocek885M )23:41
ali1234put in a second HDMI cable23:41
Azelphurali1234: that's an issue too, I would want to do display mirroring, but the TV only has one 4k HDMI input.23:42
daftykinstime to get a receiver23:42
daftykinsor a better TV :D23:42
ali1234or a bad ass HTPC that can do VR23:43
AzelphurI'm just wondering if I can achieve this with OBS, actually :)23:43
Azelphurali1234: haha, because I totally need a third top end machine  in my home where only I live23:43
AzelphurxD23:43
ali1234"I would want to do display mirroring, but the TV only has one 4k HDMI input." - i don't see how they are related23:47
daftykinsvideo also seems to suggest the solution is 'walk a few feet away and click a button' ;D23:48
daftykins= zero sympathy23:48
Azelphurali1234: HTPC is using the 4k input, I can't now plug the VR PC into that same 4k input, as its in use23:48
Azelphurdaftykins: but...effort :(23:49
ali1234get a switch box?23:49
Azelphurali1234: that could also work23:49
daftykinshey buddy, you're the one that runs Linux :>23:49
* daftykins ducks23:49
Azelphurdaftykins: haha23:50
ali1234i was just setting up OBS actually23:50
Azelphuryea, apparently if I compile nginx with the RTSP module and set up OBS, it's possible23:50
Azelphurwhich sounds like a PITA, but at least it's a possibility23:51
daftykinsmy first dabble with it had me appreciating twitch streamers for editing layouts live, a whole lot more23:51
ali1234i need a green screen23:56
daftykinswhat would you stream? i thought you had dialup level upload :>23:56
ali1234i got better internet23:57
daftykinsoh nice, what changed?23:57
ali1234switched to zen23:57
daftykinsi thought your phone line was the problem?23:57
ali1234it still is, but VDSL is way faster to start with23:58
daftykinsyeah i'm on VDSL2, but it's only faster depending on line length :>23:59
ali1234i had about 500kbit upload before, now its 20mbit23:59
