| lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 03:37 |
|---|---|---|
| EriC^^ | morning all | 06:23 |
| ducasse | good morning | 06:29 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: welcome | 07:24 |
| rabel_ | :) | 07:24 |
| rabel_ | hi there. i heard that a lot of companies don't want to use ubuntu because it has no hardware certification and is considered "less enterprise" than sles or rhel by a lot of people. on the other hand i read that ubuntu is one of the most common linux distro out there. which is true? do you know any bigger companies that use ubntu as a server os? | 07:24 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: debian & redhat are also know for many server uses Os | 07:25 |
| lotuspsychje | not sure wich is biggest | 07:25 |
| jink | YOUR MOM | 07:25 |
| lotuspsychje | !behelpful | jink | 07:25 |
| ubot5 | jink: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 07:25 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 07:25 |
| jink | :') | 07:25 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: ubuntu stats not too long ago, showed alot of server usage worldwide | 07:27 |
| rabel_ | lotuspsychje: can you tell me where to look that up? | 07:27 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: i think its pretty relative to compare stats like that, as we cant be 100% sure of what happens worldwide | 07:28 |
| ducasse | rabel_: i'm sure canonical would be happy to answer your questions about this, if you contact them | 07:28 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: i think a good aproach for this, is to start inquire why you ask exactly? | 07:28 |
| rabel_ | i ask because my boss told me to focus on the disitributions that potential customers are using. and he thinks that ubuntu is not one of them. | 07:30 |
| rabel_ | lotuspsychje: so if i can provide him numbers or examples of big companies using ubuntu on servers, i can concentrate on ubuntu ;) | 07:31 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: and your potential customers target server or home desktops? | 07:31 |
| rabel_ | server | 07:31 |
| lotuspsychje | then your boss is pretty wrong | 07:31 |
| rabel_ | that's what i think, too. but i need to show him something to convince him | 07:32 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: this might be a good start: https://blog.ubuntu.com/2016/04/07/ubuntu-is-everywhere?utm_source=omgubuntu | 07:33 |
| rabel_ | lotuspsychje: thank you. | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: the article is from last year, so might have changed since then | 07:35 |
| rabel_ | lotuspsychje: even more interesting would be if i find something for the situation in germany. | 07:36 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: for that, perhaps would be wise as suggested contact canonical as ducasse said | 07:37 |
| rabel_ | yes, probably. | 07:38 |
| rabel_ | thank you both. i will do that :) | 07:38 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: if you can convince its to gain new customers to ubuntu server, pretty sure they gonna answer | 07:38 |
| lotuspsychje | !canonical | 07:39 |
| ubot5 | Canonical Ltd. is committed to the development, distribution and promotion of open source software products, and to providing tools and support to the open source community. It is the driving force behind the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu Operating Systems. Canonical's website is at http://www.canonical.com/ | 07:39 |
| guiverc | rabel_, i see lots of stuff via ubuntu.insights (insights is marketing stuff from canonical) such as https://insights.ubuntu.com/2018/04/26/ubuntu-18-04-lts-optimised-for-security-multi-cloud-containers-ai/ that may be of interest; regularly articles focus on companies using ubuntu; but I rarely take much notice (other than scanning for uwn purposes [particularly in the past]) | 07:41 |
| lotuspsychje | we should have a !contact trigger :p | 07:41 |
| lotuspsychje | rabel_: deutsche telekom is on ubuntu aswell | 07:47 |
| rabel_ | lotuspsychje: are they? they are mentioned a lot, but i cannot find a place where is exactly that "telekom is on ubuntu", so that i could show it to my boss | 07:50 |
| lotuspsychje | Deutsche Telekom is developing and deploying many new cloud applications on Ubuntu OpenStack as part of its secure and highly scaleable public cloud Business Marketplace ecosystem for SMB customers. | 07:52 |

| rabel_ | thx | 07:53 |

| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 09:58 |
| daftykins | \o | 10:54 |
| BluesKaj | Hey daftykins | 10:55 |
| daftykins | all well? any progress with Konversation? | 10:56 |
| BluesKaj | not really ..no response to my queries in the konv chat | 11:01 |
| daftykins | :( not a good sign | 11:01 |
| daftykins | a few years ago i had the same kind of issue with irssi, but i'm glad they sorted that out | 11:02 |
| BluesKaj | most kde users run quassel which I find fugly and weirdly laid out without any options to change it | 11:02 |
| === EriC^ is now known as EriC^^ | ||
| BluesKaj | ok trying out quassel , seems the socks5 proxyworks, and managed to make the "look" less annoying | 14:32 |
| oerheks_ | instead of cat etc issue >> hostnamectl status :-D | 17:36 |
| oerheks_ | but that reveals some unique numbers... | 17:37 |
| daftykins | o0 | 19:15 |
| oerheks_ | :-) | 19:19 |
| === oerheks_ is now known as oerheks | ||
| oerheks | oh, that annanilator .. if you cannot find the versions .. | 21:55 |
| oerheks | hi there TJ- | 21:55 |
| nacc | oerheks: right | 21:55 |
| TJ- | oerheks: how you doing? | 21:56 |
| * oerheks drops 4.17, waiting for 5 | 21:57 | |
| oerheks | good, long time no see :-D | 21:57 |
| TJ- | yeah, busy here on the farm | 21:57 |
| oerheks | I can imagine that | 21:59 |
| oerheks | this hot & wet spring, does nature explode :-D | 21:59 |
| oerheks | i bet "acpi_osi=Windows 2018\" | 23:16 |
| TJ- | something like that, or 2017. That'll likely solve all those AE_NOT_FOUND errors for several ACPI DSDT Methods | 23:19 |
| oerheks | and bios update, i already told him, | 23:21 |
| TJ- | There's a later firmware available? | 23:23 |
| oerheks | maybe .. | 23:23 |
