Bashing-omtomreyn: IRT alpha__ : Might remind him when he points the installer to /home DO NOT choose to format the partition .00:13
TJ-^^^ haha yes, I was thinking that00:13
daftykins:D00:25
TJ-tomreyn: You must be on overtime by now!00:27
daftykins!cookie | tomreyn00:31
ubot5`tomreyn: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!00:31
TJ-oh, he left for 45 minutes!00:32
Bashing-omTJ-: ^ long 'nuff to hit the rain locker and grab a Snickers bar ( or 2 ) :P00:36
TJ-Or escape the country :D00:36
Bashing-omTJ-: Sometimes that do feel like the better course :)00:37
TJ-:p00:37
TJ-yeah... for me it's a certain someone trying to git bisect the kernel for a battery-drains-whilst-shutdown00:38
daftykinshmm i don't know pfsense enough to know what rule i might require to add a tertiary interface bidirectional comms with the LAN00:38
daftykinsplugged the second interface on the Huawei HG612 VDSL2 transceiver into the third NIC on our AMD APU router :)00:39
Bashing-omTJ-: "battery-drains-whilst-shutdown" and I only thought I had problems :D00:43
daftykinssilly me, should've realised the transceiver would have no idea about the LAN subnet - i needed a NAT rule01:01
tomreynso how do i git insect the kernel!!?? tell me!!01:06
tomreynbut apparently there are really people who run into this issue?01:06
daftykinsuh oh, Brundeltux xD01:06
daftykins(Brundelfly, movie reference to "The Fly" with Jeff Goldblum)01:06

daftykinsah har01:08
hggdhtomreyn: remember insect == bug01:22
tomreyn:)01:26
Bashing-om"  what would a good name for the user be?" TJ- does hand holding while babby stepping in progres :)01:39
hggdhBashing-om: good name... struwwelpeter01:40
TJ-Bashing-om: sometimes, when I think I've plumbed the depths of dumbness, I'm surprised once again :)01:40
TJ-Bashing-om: the 'good name' I was thinking isn't printable in this channel!01:40
Bashing-omLOL .. only you can do it !01:40
hggdhTJ-: that's why I proposed struwwelpeter01:41
TJ-If you hear laughing it isn't me honest01:42
hggdhheh01:42
TJ-And NOW it turns out the target is Mac not Linux at all!!!!01:42
* TJ- becomes an active shooter!01:42
survey0rlol01:42
Bashing-omIt's laughter in the face of crying :)01:43
TJ-Bashing-om: I've got audiobook on... BBC's sublime I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue compendium01:43
hggdhat least the wtruwwelpeter stories (Der Struwwelpeter Gesicht) should be adjusted for computers. The Germans, at least did not dance around, went straight for the kill01:45
hggdhthe thing goes like this: he was sucking his thumb, and his mother said "don't suck your thumb, the taylor will come and cut your thumb out."01:47
hggdhHe kept sucking his thumb, and the taylor came and cut both his thumbs off.01:47
hggdhDone. Lesson imparted.01:47
TJ-I suppose that saves on buying two thimbles01:47
hggdhOr, rather, excised.01:47
hggdhI had the vinyl from Stern, and my kids used to listen to it pretty much every day01:49
TJ-what's wrong with sucking thumbs anyhow? they taste good01:49
TJ-Admittedly it's not a good idea to do it whilst dealing with Ubuntu bugs since you tend to bite down!01:50
hggdhthere you go01:50
Bashing-omWho is to say that the theory of relativity was not developed while the thumb was engaged ?01:53
TJ-We certainly seem to encounter disturbances in the space-time continuum in #ubuntu01:56
Bashing-omyeah, a fact ..it is the gravity of the situation .01:57
TJ-:)01:58

petrois it okay to install / upgrade to the nvidia driver from 384 to 390.48?10:45
lotuspsychjepetro: when added the graphics ppa, you can switch between drivers10:46
lotuspsychjepetro: additional drivers section, or ubuntu-drivers list10:46
petrolotuspsychje, I noticed that but....10:47
petrolotuspsychje, I'm afraid of the system being messed up....check this page quickly....hold on10:47
petrohttps://askubuntu.com/questions/1006253/installing-latest-nvidia-driver-on-ubuntu-17-1010:47
lotuspsychjepetro: when your system results in black screen, you can always !nomodeset or sudo apt purge nvidia* to go back to nouveau10:48
petrolotuspsychje, read this part:  "Ubuntu 17.10 Installs Wayland with the option for XServer using Gnom...."10:48
petrolotuspsychje, this is all that is needed?:  " sudo apt purge nvidia"10:49
petrolotuspsychje, I'm asking because I had the experience of that user above10:49
lotuspsychjepetro: its possible this occurs yes10:50
petrolotuspsychje, I upgraded 384.111 to 384.13010:50
petrolotuspsychje, so, if I had that black screen, I only have to run 'sudo apt purge nvidia' to go back to nouveau and...10:52
lotuspsychjeyes10:52
petrolotuspsychje, I can then install 390.48 from Additional Drivers to use proprietary driver, 390.48, right?10:52
petrolotuspsychje, right now, I disabled using wayland using that user's example.... I made a note of doing that so I don't forget10:53
lotuspsychjepetro: you dont upgrade drivers, you switch between them10:53
petrolotuspsychje, just in case I decide to upgrade to 390.48.... I thought I should use the updated stable driver?10:53
petrolotuspsychje, oh...right10:53
lotuspsychjepetro: if i was you, i would first test 390 without wayland tweak10:53
petrolotuspsychje, okay10:54
lotuspsychjepetro: see if that works by default10:54
lotuspsychjepetro: if not, you can switch to other drivers10:54
