<MatthewV> bimberi, you are a member of the wiki team?

<MatthewV> btw, good morning bimberi ;)

<bimberi> MatthewV: On Launchpad? Yes.

<bimberi> hehe, morning :)

<MatthewV> bimberi, is that supposed to mean only on launchpad?

<Tatey> how you going fella's?

<Tatey> haven't seen you for a while MatthewV

<MatthewV> hi Tatey how're you..

<MatthewV> heh.. i was going to say the same thing, but your probably right...

<bimberi> MatthewV: No, it applies to wiki.ubuntu.com and help.ubuntu.com/community

<Tatey> awaiting the Edgy release :)

<bimberi> hi Tatey

<Tatey> MatthewV: admittedly, I haven't been actively participating here, either

<Tatey> hi bimberi

<MatthewV> bimberi, yeah.. i was just wondering who i should ask about this link http://blog.eukhost.com/2006/10/10/ubuntu-in-flashback which is on the wiki home page, but imho doesn't help at all in doing the point.. and could almost, again, imho, be called commercial

<MatthewV> and i didnt dare just remove it from the FRONT PAGE

* bimberi takes a look (at 14.4Kbps :( )

<MatthewV> Tatey, by the time i get back from school (in 7 hours) this place will be thick with anticipation

* MatthewV thinks that is not quite the right expression to use...

<Tatey> MatthewV: IIRC, Dapper was released at around 2-3pm EST

<bimberi> i like it

<MatthewV> Tatey, that'd be good... i'll be able to download it when i get home :)

<bimberi> yes, and that night #ubuntu was Frantic

<MatthewV> #ubuntu is already up to 932

<elkbuntu> bimberi, oh right.. we're in for that again.. and i predict it's going to be even worse

<MatthewV> bimberi, you mean you like that link on the wiki?

<Fujitsu> MatthewV: that's nothing.

<Fujitsu> bimberi: Yeah, I remember that well... That was bad.

<bimberi> MatthewV: no, I like "thick with anticipation" :)

<MatthewV> bimberi, oh.. :)

<bimberi> MatthewV: which page? wiki.ubuntu.com?

<MatthewV> heh.. just saw this in #ubuntu: is feisty out yet? is it usable?

<MatthewV> bimberi, yes

<bimberi> darn, that's my line :)

<MatthewV> right near the bottom, there's a link entitled history of ubuntu

<MatthewV> and its under Searching this wiki, which also makes it irrelevant..

<bimberi> MatthewV: ah yes, feel free to get rid of that

<bimberi> MatthewV: and Thanks!

<MatthewV> bimberi, no probs.. just didnt dare touch the front page without asking :P

<Fujitsu> That should really be removed, yeah...

<bimberi> :)

<MatthewV> Done!

<bimberi> Cool

<MatthewV> alright people... I've gtg :( so I'll catcha all later

<MatthewV> have a great day filled with anticipation :P

<bimberi> lol, you too MatthewV

<TigerWolf> http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en;276304

<DarkMageZ> TigerWolf, cute

<adhoc_> doh!

<adhoc_> aircon died in the server room!

<purserj> see thats when you need fan slaves

<siccness> Watched a mad show on Hackers last night.

<adhoc_> purserj: hmmm fan slaves

<Changlinn> siccness: what was it...

<siccness> Not sure, it was on ABC at like 1:30am or something.

<TigerWolf> anyone know if theres a place with like the daily ISO - not the RC?

<TigerWolf> be good to have one burnt before the servers get hammered

<siccness> But it was about Phoenix/Electron (Melbourne Underground Hackers from the late 80s/early 90s)

<siccness> the ones who hacked NASA and put a worm on there computers

<siccness> You can read about all of it here: http://jmason.org/underground/contents.html <--pretty interesting read

<bimberi> !daily | TigerWolf

<ubotu> TigerWolf: Daily builds of the CD images of the current development version of Ubuntu are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/

<bimberi> siccness: You had me worried you were referring to "The IT Crowd" :)

<TigerWolf> ty ubotu and bimberi :D

<bimberi> :)

<siccness> The IT Crowd was shocking

<TigerWolf> i dont know why my parents like it so much

<TigerWolf> probably because they like poking fun at those sorts of people

<bimberi> I've watched one episode

<TigerWolf> same

<TigerWolf> i got fed up with it

<bimberi> TigerWolf: Yes, I reckon you're right - it's for people who like poking fun...

<purserj> Its for people who've been in the industry

<siccness> But it's just bluntly stupid?

<purserj> So is the industry

<siccness> The I.T Industry is stupid?

<siccness> It had nothing to do with the I.T Industry anyway.

<purserj> it has everything to do with the IT Industry. You've read Dilbert?

<bimberi> The episode I saw was about shit^Wchocolate on one's forehead - the only faintly IT related thing was the tape recorded helpdesk answering

<siccness> So you're telling me lasts nights episode of 'The I.T Crowd' was about the IT Industry? Yup, I'll just pop down to IBM now and see how many people have lied of a colleagues death to get them out of dating.

<purserj> Its about the people in the industry. Trust me, there are people out there who fit each of those stereotypes exactly

<purserj> Its also about working in a corporate helpdesk. The most truly soul destroying experience in the industry

<Eucalyptbot> [Shoutbox] ~JonathanFerguson: ~JonathanFerguson

<TigerWolf> I want to know where you work

<purserj> I've worked a lot of places and met most of the characters in the IT Crowd

<siccness> Sure, but the content of the show is irrelevant to the IT Industry.

<TigerWolf> ubuntuforums seem a bit slow

<TigerWolf> must be busy

<siccness> purserj: It's like 'Black Books', it has nothing do with a bookshop really.

<TigerWolf> Black Books was the best!

<adhoc_> phew... aircon returned!

<purserj> no fan slaves?

<adhoc_> =(

<quail-laptop> hows this for a desktop setup for my laptop >>> http://southernvaleslug.org/img/Screenshot26102006.png

<TigerWolf> i wanna know how to do the transparent menubar

<TigerWolf> cant find a good guide

<drew> right click on panel: Properties > Background > Solid colour > Style...

<quail-laptop> TigerWolf: as drew said :-)

<TigerWolf> :)

<Changlinn> purserj: as for soul crushing corporate helpdesk is heave next to the internet helpdesk...

<Changlinn> and I have met all the charecters/been some

<Changlinn> me "have you tried rebooting it"

<purserj> When I first saw the answering machine I thought "My god I have to do that"

<drew> TigerWolf: there's no guide because it is *that* simple

<Changlinn> heheh... I had a mate who had some pre-recorded mp3's he played for a laugh to callers

<quail-laptop> well i just fixed one of my own bugs on launchpad last night :-)

<siccness> the problem with transparent menubars is that they look terrible when you have an application like firefox open

<quail-laptop> this is the bug i fixed >>> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xorg-driver-synaptics/+bug/64127

<quail-laptop> and it was when i was going though some bugs last night i was reading someones xorg.conf and it got me thinking as i was not sure if it had anything to do with synaptic touchpad in it

<quail-laptop> and end of the the story is edgy not setup my touchpad in xorg.conf and i have to type it in there manually

<quail-laptop> one thing that i still can't get working is for my touchpad to turn off while typing

<TigerWolf> sweet - my desktop now looks nice - http://polyscopedesign.com/screenshot.jpg

<TigerWolf> drew: thus the :) as a show of embarasment

<quail-laptop> TigerWolf: nice

<siccness> irssi baby!

<drew> purserj: the IT crowd?

<siccness> TigerWolf: edit your irssi theme file to transparent the blue bars.

<purserj> drew: yes

<TigerWolf> hmmm - good idea

<TigerWolf> more uni study distractions!

<TigerWolf> theres nothing i have to do with my upgrade to edgy other than my sources list right? as thats what ive done

<quail-laptop> brb

<quail-laptop> hey pschulz01

<pschulz01> quail-laptop: Lunchtime!

<quail-laptop> pschulz01: hows this for a desktop setup on my laptop >>> http://southernvaleslug.org/img/Screenshot26102006.jpg

<pschulz01> I need to find an alternative for Redhat's kickstart.. for Ubuntu.

<pschulz01> Nioce!

<pschulz01> You should install workrave

<quail-laptop> friend said my setup look almost like a bryce comp

<quail-laptop> workrave what that

<elkbuntu> pschulz01, i did.. but it only picks times when 20 people are messaging me to tell me to break, so i end up shutting it down :|

<pschulz01> Yeah... I have the same problem... need.. to.. just.. get.. this.. message.. out.

<pschulz01> quail-laptop: What 'bryce comp'?

<pschulz01> !workrave

<ubotu> workrave: RSI prevention tool. In component main, is optional. Version 1.8.3-1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 635 kB, installed size 1884 kB

<quail-laptop> bryce is a 3d lanscape generator for windows and mac

<pschulz01> !bryce

<ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bryce - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

<quail-laptop> pschulz01: why would i want to install workrave for

<pschulz01> quail-laptop: You get a 'sheep' in the menu bar when it's switched off.

<quail-laptop> why would i want them for

<quail-laptop> to prevent rsi use System ---> Preferences ---> Keyboard and then go to the typing break tab

<elkbuntu> same deal, except more advanced. it guides you through stretches and such

<pschulz01> quail-laptop: haha.. I hadn't seen that option.

<han2> hihi

<han2> how's all?

*** han2 is now known as hantu

<pschulz01> Something else to be aware of.. Newuser> Every 60 minutes or so my screen goes blank.

<quail-laptop> pschulz01: what you do is set it and when it say it time for break you move to another pc and visa versa

<elkbuntu> quail, workrave can collaborate via network

<quail-laptop> elkbuntu: i not talking about workrave

* pschulz01 wanders off.. my work here is done.

<quail-laptop> does workrave work to tell people to go for break on windoze via network?

<elkbuntu> there is a windows version, yes

<elkbuntu> i believe they would have the different platforms collaborate, since it is just sending and receving of messages to react to

<quail-laptop> hmm i might install it on windoze at the other end the property to be annoying lmao

<TigerWolf> pschulz01: hey! you going to the belgian beer cafe tonight?

<quail-laptop> TigerWolf: i think he is as pschulz01 was the one that arranged it

<TigerWolf> ok

<TigerWolf> anyone else going?

<quail-laptop> elkbuntu: yes there is a windows version

<elkbuntu> quail, i *knew* there was

<quail-laptop> TigerWolf: i am not as it takes me ~45 mins to get to the city from here

<TigerWolf> 15 minutes on bus :)

<pschulz01> TigerWolf: Yup. I will be there..

<pschulz01> Although, I have been known to organise things and then not turn up.

<purserj> dates?

<sicc-tafe> FC4 sucks

<hantu> bbl. :o going to doom myself in the library today

<klepas> elkbuntu: hey hey! :o)

<klepas> bimberi: ping

<TigerWolf> recon someone can do me a favor? i cant manage to get a tranparent background for this image -http://tux.crystalxp.net/png/_thumb/80-87697.png (and needs to be 90x90) - im not good at GIMP

<TigerWolf> if only i had photoshop

<klepas> TigerWolf: http://klepas.org/temp/80-87697_a.png

<TigerWolf> sweet

<TigerWolf> its out! but you cant download it! http://www.ubuntu.com/

<adhoc_> hmm ... anyone use cifs shares on dabber or breezy?

<phlosten-lunch> afternoon all

<purserj> adhoc_: sharing out or sharing in?

<adhoc_> we have NAS that shares cifs

<TigerWolf> http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/

* adhoc_ would lioke to mount it on my breezy desktop

<TigerWolf> ooops

<TigerWolf> wrong link

<purserj> adhoc_: shouldn't be too much of an issue, so long as you have the correct modules

<phlosten-lunch> 6.10 out yet?

<TigerWolf> not officially

<purserj> adhoc_: check to see if you have the smbfs package installed

<adhoc_> phlosten-lunch: doesn't look like it

<adhoc_> purserj: ok

<TigerWolf> but its on the front page

<phlosten-lunch> i noticed it there, no official announcement though

<phlosten-lunch> thought it might be out by now, was going to ssh into my machine and start it downloading

<adhoc_> w0000p

<adhoc_> one down

<phlosten-lunch> just dropped into the pc store to pickup an external ide to usb adpater

<adhoc_> about 66 more to go ...

<phlosten-lunch> adhoc_?

* adhoc_ needs a half dozen 3.5 inch disk USB2 external thingies

<adhoc_> phlosten-lunch: CIFS share mountage

<phlosten-lunch> rightio

<klepas> is shipit open for edgy requests?

<TigerWolf> this is pretty much the final: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/

<phlosten-lunch> nope

<phlosten-lunch> no shipit for edgy

<phlosten-lunch> only dapper

<klepas> at all?

<klepas> aww

<TigerWolf> theres not going to be like any changes i recon between that and release

<phlosten-lunch> TigerWolf, probably right you are

<elkbuntu> klepas, pong

<klepas> how's it going elkbuntu

<elkbuntu> klepas, im just about to arrange getting the edgy cds to jellyware

<klepas> neat :)

<elkbuntu> klepas, each loco gets only 500 edgy cds, shipit main stays dapper

<klepas> going to join #ubuntu-artwork?

<TigerWolf> my engrish good!

<klepas> (as in hang there also)

<phlosten-lunch> TigerWolf, vewy exament

<phlosten-lunch> better head back to the crap hole that is work

<phlosten-lunch> cya

<phlosten-lunch> all

<adhoc_> night

<elkbuntu> klepas, you realise my ability to get stuff from grey matter to computer screen is limited

<elkbuntu> (graphically speaking)

<adhoc_> hey elky

<elkbuntu> hey adhoc_

<klepas> hehe

<klepas> could just hang nonetheless :)

*** bimberi_ is now known as bimberi

<bimberi> klepas: pong

<purserj> hmm considering I'd have to download over 900MB to do a dist-upgrade, might be just easier to reinstall this machine

<klepas> bimberi: coming tonight?

<TigerWolf> http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/releases.ubuntu.com/.pool/ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso

<bimberi> klepas: probably. A few things to get done at home first

<bimberi> klepas: good talks though

<klepas> cool

<klepas> thanks TigerWolf

<TigerWolf> the only mirror that its on atm

<klepas> slow :)

<klepas> got md5sums?

<klepas> wait, nevermind the comment about the mirror's slowness ;)

<TigerWolf> fb3af44c21f1f68cc25fda7edb8c1bd3 ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso

<klepas> thx

<klepas> ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso?

<klepas> ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso

<TigerWolf> oops

<TigerWolf> there doesnt seem to be a md5

<klepas> pity

<klepas> well i'll see how good this is

<Tatey> is it released now?

<Tatey> anyone got the torrent?

<TigerWolf> torents not up

<TigerWolf> its on official server - http://releases.ubuntu.com/.pool/

<TigerWolf> b950a4d7cf3151e5f213843e2ad77fe3 ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso

<TigerWolf> got it finnaly klepas

<Tatey> ahh, I want a torrent

<Fujitsu> People, do not post these please. They are not necessarily final.

<TigerWolf> why would they not be?

<elkbuntu> TigerWolf, last minute fixes

<TigerWolf> elkbuntu: which you can apt-get upgrade...

<TigerWolf> +update

<elkbuntu> TigerWolf, feel free to waste your downloads, just dont distribute the link

<TigerWolf> i already have edgy

<elkbuntu> same, x2. does not mean you should distribute that link purporting it to be edgy

<elkbuntu> because until edgy is released, that is still beta

<elkbuntu> i believe it was breezy that was a few days late in release due to last-minute show-stoppers

<TigerWolf> ok then. http://releases.ubuntu.com/.pool/ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso <= Edgy RC2

<TheMuso> Are the symlinks not in place yet?

<TigerWolf> its not official yet

<TheMuso> According to the official page, the rc is the latest release.

<TigerWolf> its probably there so that the other mirrors can grab it

<TheMuso> Yeah I know.

<TigerWolf> thus the .pool - being "hidden" and all

* TheMuso will wait till it hits pipe mirrors, as I don't have a lot of quota left for the month, and I generally like to get i386 and powerpc isos for all the derivs.

<TigerWolf> yeah - same

* TheMuso should have a play with FC6 DVD he downloaded earlier today.

<Tatey> release the torrents damnit

<TheMuso> I just wanna have a look.

* adhoc_ formats a tape in preparation for iso extraction ...

<adhoc_> hey mr purserj

<adhoc_> your program up from yester eve?

<purserj> arrggh not yet, will have it up asap (allowing for kids and the like

<purserj> )

<siccness> Edgy released hey

<Fujitsu> siccness: No.

<siccness> Then they probably shouldn't have 6.10 on their main page.

<siccness> It's a little misleading.

<Fujitsu> siccness: Exactly.

<TigerWolf> "It just seems to me that they are preparing the webpage for the release."

<siccness> Should be done after the release.

<Fujitsu> They shouldn't have to prepare.

<Fujitsu> They should just switch it over AT the release, rather than hours before...

<siccness> Soon as it's released, you transfer the new pages.

<siccness> it's that damn simple.

<Fujitsu> Yup.

<Fujitsu> I hear from a Canonical employee that it is being rectified.

<Hit3k> you know the kind of room that you have to clean but its so messy you cant clean? thats like mine right now

<MistaED> what's being rectified Fujitsu?

<siccness> Hit3k: yes, the room that is owned by the lazy bastard.

<siccness> The website, MistaED

<Fujitsu> The misleading image.

<MistaED> ok

<MistaED> oh, it hasn't been released yet you mean?

<Hit3k> eft isnt released yet?

<siccness> not officially

<TigerWolf> but "RC2" is

<TigerWolf> if you want to call it that

<Hit3k> well

<Hit3k> there was a thing on digg about eft being "released" today but i was at school and didnt click it

<siccness> Does anyone here know who Carey O'shea (sp) is?

<TigerWolf> its slowly working its was onto internode mirrors - desktop not up yet

<TigerWolf> http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/releases/.pool/

<siccness> they'll prolly do it last so they dont get flooded

<Hit3k> internode \o/

<TigerWolf> what does \o/ mean?

<Hit3k> joy

<drew> TigerWolf: imagine the slashes as arms and the o as a head

<TigerWolf> ok cool

<Hit3k> \o/ 6 hours and 39 minutes till saw is released

<drew> saw?

<Hit3k> Saw 3

<Hit3k> rather

<Hit3k> the horror movie is released in the states in that time

<Hit3k> I'm a complete sicko

<drew> oh, ok.

<siccness> Saw 1 was boring

* drew has a strong stomach but doesn't feel the need to expose himself to fear and gore

<TigerWolf> omg! i want my photoshop! - only thing missing from linux now that i have my flash 9

<drew> TigerWolf: try wine, if you must

<TigerWolf> anyone have PS in wine?

<siccness> I'm a big fan of mspaint

<siccness> I miss mspaint ;|

<TigerWolf> i want to know if its dodgy or not

<drew> TigerWolf: I have wine, but can't affort photoshop

<siccness> check the winehq database

<TigerWolf> ah - i shall

<Hit3k> TigerWolf, I had it running was weird though

<TigerWolf> hmm - cant install in ubuntu, but it works in debian - wtf?

<TigerWolf> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=2631

<drew> TigerWolf: just try it

<siccness> Use Photoshop 7.0

<siccness> in Dapper

<siccness> apparently it works a charm (Platinum status)

<drew> TigerWolf: if all else fails, use vmware player or qemu

<drew> TigerWolf: or dual boot or GIMP!

<noiesmo> gimpshop

<siccness> You need to be a genius to use GIMP

<TigerWolf> *sigh* - looks like im going to have to use windows again

<noiesmo> http://plasticbugs.com/?page_id=294

<drew> siccness: I'll take that as a compliment, but is it really that hard?

<TigerWolf> but yeah - when i get the iso - ill try PS 7 in wine

<siccness> drew: I believe so. Then again, I believe you need to be a genius to use PS :)

<siccness> All I know how to use is the gradient filler

<drew> siccness: I came to gimp after using photoshop and now find gimp a lot easier

<drew> siccness: tried to go through the tutorial?

<TigerWolf> hmm - i think ill give gimpshop a go

<siccness> Nah, I'll have to compile it again. It'd take about 2hrs to do so :|

<siccness> the user-manuals / help files are 50mb all up, gimp is 12mb.

<siccness> lol

<drew> siccness: huh? compile?

<klepas> drew: have a look at gimp 2.3.12

<klepas> (currently in devel)

<drew> klepas: I've seen some of the news about 2.3.x

<drew> klepas: is anyone building packages?

<klepas> it's quite the blast

<klepas> no

<MistaED> tigerwolf: i use photoshop 7 with crossover office, it's stable and works with my tablet fine

<klepas> maybe for source distributions

<klepas> but they wouldn't be packages then :)

<klepas> drew: just cvs the source and compile it

<klepas> neat thing is it runs alongside your current stable version :)

<klepas> so if something blows up you can always fall back on stable

<klepas> i'm dashing

<klepas> cheerio

<TigerWolf> sweet - getting crossover office now

<bimberi> MummyLUG? :)

<siccness> Heh

<siccness> ThePizzaKing: as if you need to study for that

<siccness> it's easy

<ThePizzaKing> yeah, I haven't done much at all

<pschulz01> siccness: They could have atleast gone to a cafe.. or a Pizza shop on Lygon St.

* pschulz01 ducks.

<ThePizzaKing> Chocolate pizza!

<MistaED> or deep-fried pizza

<hot_wheelz> hi guys

<hot_wheelz> I have a quick ? about Edgy

<siccness> Shoot.

<hot_wheelz> it contains MythTv 0.20 right?

<siccness> It's in the edgy repos, yes.

<quail-laptop> some freak tried to ring me with reverse charges

<siccness> Sorry quail-laptop :P

<hot_wheelz> well my ? is is it the first release or the patched one?

<quail-laptop> ah it was only you siccness, sorry i not accept

<siccness> Sorry, I didn't quite understand that question :)

<MatthewV> hehe.. i go into my spam folder and one of the google banners reads: Spam Swiss Pie: bake 45-55 minutes or until eggs have set

<hot_wheelz> v0.20 was released then patched coz the fogot to add in somthing

<siccness> I'd imagine the patched version will be available.

<hot_wheelz> re: http://mythtv.org/

<hot_wheelz> thanks siccness

<siccness> If it comes down to it not being there, you can always apply the patch yourself.

<siccness> But I'm fairly confident the patched version will be there.

<hot_wheelz> thanks

<siccness> No problem

<MatthewV> hey if i reinstall but keep my /home partition intact.. everything should be saved fine, including settings, shouldn't it

* siccness shrugs

<siccness> ~/.* will be fine

<MatthewV> technically it should, if i understand it right, i'm just wondering about the in reality part

<siccness> but not all settings are under /home

<MatthewV> siccness, no, but the ones i need to keep (music libraries, photo tags/library) all are

<siccness> You're fine then :)

<siccness> set the mount point to /home

<siccness> and voila!

<Phlosten> hurrah

<siccness> Although I've never really been successful with ubuntu's installer :|

<MatthewV> siccness, thats what i thought.. just wondering if it really happens that way :P

<siccness> Heh

<MatthewV> i've never had any trouble with the alternate install, and only once with desktop insatller.. quitting it and going back in fixed that

<siccness> Yeah, I had to do the latter about 3 times for Dapper.

<siccness> That alone irritated me.

<MatthewV> #ubuntu has hit 977 and still going up

<MatthewV> siccness, in my case it was just a case of the installer think i didnt have a partition to install onto, even though i had set it right..

<siccness> That's one thing that will scare people off, faulty installers.

<MatthewV> siccness, thats why windows always comes preinstalled ;)

<siccness> Heh

<Phlosten> how does one mount lvm volumes?

<siccness> <--Never had a problem with Windows installers

<MistaED> the windows installer has flaky sata support, how primitive

<siccness> first google, Phlosten: http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-64964.html

<Phlosten> i always had problem with windows installers,. kept installing windows, every time!

<Tatey> haha

<MatthewV> siccness, nor have i really, just found them extremely frustrating

<siccness> Heh

<MatthewV> and iirc i did have to restart one or two installs of win98 :)

<siccness> Although iirc Windows ME screwed up.

<hantu-skool> sup matthew

<hantu-skool> windows me is the worst windows ive ever installed

<hantu-skool> (not on my puter, luckily)

<siccness> I think windows me was the worst operating system ive ever installed

<MatthewV> hi hantu-skool

<hantu-skool> ehe.

<MatthewV> wherabouts are you?

<adhoc_> siccness: dude you obviously never used cpm

<hantu-skool> me? school!

<hantu-skool> cpm?

<Phlosten> windows me doesnt count as an OS

<hantu-skool> MatthewV: melbourne

<MatthewV> hantu-skool, school at 6:12 PM :) what fun..

<siccness> wth is cpm?

<MatthewV> siccness, an OS

<hantu-skool> MatthewV: studying, in ze library

<siccness> 8bit os

<hantu-skool> i usually stay til 11.45pm :)

<siccness> lol

<hantu-skool> MatthewV: finals next week.

<hantu-skool> ive never heard of CPM :o

<hantu-skool> characters per minute, :o

<MatthewV> i *think* i've heard of it

<siccness> http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-64964.html

<siccness> whoops

<siccness> wrong link

<hantu-skool> lawler

<siccness> http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/C/CP_M.html

<Phlosten> siccness: thanks again

<Phlosten> ;)

<siccness> :)

<Phlosten> it would have been nice to have a mount option in the Disks menu

<siccness> nah

<siccness> you want cluey

* adhoc_ gives up on the iso being released before 6pm

* adhoc_ goes to the pub

<siccness> heh

<adhoc_> later geezers

<MatthewV> adhoc_, aint it 6pm already for you?

<elkbuntu> it's nto going to be, no

<adhoc_> wheer?

<MatthewV> :(

<MatthewV> hi Autonomy

<MatthewV> Fujitsu, pointed you here eh?

<Autonomy> Hey all!... Yeah :p

<siccness> So it's released is it?

<MatthewV> hmm.. .#ubuntu topic says its released but i dont think so...

<MatthewV> havn't got notification email yet

<Phlosten> yes, Windows Vista is out!...oh wait *checks channel name*

<TheColonial> yo dudes, do we have a package for firefox 2 lying around anywhere? :)

<MatthewV> TheColonial, upgrade to edgy :P

<siccness> Don't upgrade to edgy

<MatthewV> http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/ still has RC

<siccness> :)

<TheColonial> MatthewV: not yet :)

<adhoc_> wish they'd make uip their mind in #ubuntu

<MatthewV> Autonomy, hows it going?

<hantu-skul> im not upgrading my dapper to edgy

<hantu-skul> :)

* TheColonial isn't either (at least not yet)

<adhoc_> pub time!

<MatthewV> oh.. how crazy can it get ;D

<siccness> emerge -uavDN world :D

<Autonomy> MatthewV: Yeah, ok! I'm become very Edgy waiting for this release! :p Been using it since the 'Knots'! The front web page it a tourtue! Lol

<MatthewV> Autonomy, me too.. since knot 2 iirc.. planning to reinstall once i can get an iso though, because i still got some problems with my configuration, and they are fixed on the RC live cd, so i assume taht the final will be too

<Fujitsu> It isn't released yet, though it's not far off...

<MatthewV> all the hype, excitement in #ubuntu.. what some ppl will believe

<hantu-skul> heya Fujitsu

<siccness> TheColonial: FF2?

<MatthewV> btw, whats mode +m on channels?

<siccness> mute

<siccness> means you need to have op or voice to talk

<hantu-skul> do they have ff2 for buntu yet

<MatthewV> aahhh...

<MatthewV> thanks siccness

<Fujitsu> hantu-skul: Yes, has been for some time.

<siccness> hantu-skul: Fujitsu said it was in repos, iirc.

* hantu-skul checks.

<hantu-skul> do i have to install a separate package? i thought it should update my exisitng ff

<Autonomy> The picture on ubuntu.com just "went"

<Autonomy> anyone else notice this?

<MatthewV> Autonomy, yeah.. it was confusing too many people i bleive

<siccness> Should never have been there in the first place.

<Fujitsu> siccness: It was a communication error.

<Fujitsu> hantu-skul: It will upgrade it...

<hantu-skul> hrm

<siccness> Between two individuals?

<hantu-skul> cant seem to find it

<MatthewV> Fujitsu, #ubuntu is a fun place now isnt it ;)

<Fujitsu> MatthewV: Not as bad as Dapper.

<Autonomy> siccness: agreeeeeeeeeed! Ppl are going crazy!

<MatthewV> :)

<Fujitsu> We've only got 991 people there...

<Fujitsu> We had > 1100 for Dapper.

<hantu-skul> dapper repo or edgy repo?

<MatthewV> hehe.. someone's asking for help in #ubuntu..

<Phlosten> brb

<siccness> Do people realise that there's not that much different between dapper/edgy?

<siccness> It seems as if people update every 6 months because a new version comes out

<Fujitsu> hantu-skul: Edgy.

<siccness> when it reality, they probably dont need to.

<MatthewV> siccness, i do! i cant stand being out of date :)

<siccness> It's hardly out of date ;)

<siccness> You've got another 3 or so years, LTS baby!

<MatthewV> you get some programs a few releases out of date after 6 months :P

<Autonomy> siccness: Well... Gnome 2.16 + GCC 4.1 standard... a few optimisations here and there... and lots things i've noticed too... I'd say it's worth it :p

<Fujitsu> hantu-skul: Do you really think they're going to update an LTS release to some crackful new FIrefox?

<siccness> LOL

<hantu-skul> oh that hurt me.

<hantu-skul> mind you, its only been a month + ive been using ubntu

<siccness> Autonomy: I hardly see that as justifiable for the average user.

<Autonomy> siccness: no... your probably very right! And 6.06 is supported for a longer time frame... for the adverage user... why would you? being honest... It's only for the fact that I have been testing it since the knots that I want to continue with the final

<siccness> gcc --version = 3.4.4, gnome version = 2.12.2

<siccness> that's how old i am :)

<Autonomy> lol

<siccness> although upgrading gcc isn't such a bad idea at this time

<Autonomy> siccness: yeah... 4.1 is defintly worth the update for use c / c++ ppl :)

<Autonomy> use = us :p

<hantu-skul> bleh

<Autonomy> If I had a dollar for ever time i've pressed the refresh button today, i'd have at least $83 :) But who

<Autonomy> 's counting :p

<TheColonial> so what's the final verdict... was there an FF2 package for 6.06?

<Autonomy> TheColonial: Isn't it still RC?

<TheColonial> no

<TheColonial> www.getfirefox.com has it there for the world to download

<TheColonial> just wondered if it was ready as an ubuntu package

<andrew222> The new Xubuntu Release is out

<TheColonial> i have another Q, how come packages are listed on the packages website, but apt-get doesn't know about them or can't find them?

<MatthewV> TheColonial, you might get it in backports eventually, otherwise just download the official release and install that alongside the old one...

<TheColonial> MatthewV: ok mate, cheers.

<MatthewV> TheColonial, maybe you dont have the repositories enabled

<MatthewV> !repos

<ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource

<andrew222> how do you upgrade from dapper to edgy in Xubuntu

<MatthewV> andrew222, just run gksudo update-manager -c

<MatthewV> that should do it.. or you can just change every instance of dapper to edgy in /etc/apt/sources.list, then run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

<MatthewV> 1008 in #ubuntu.. wonder if it will top dapper's

<andrew222> MatthewV: it said that --c was an invalid switch

<TheColonial> MatthewV: thanks mate, sorting that out now

<MatthewV> andrew222, -c not --c make any diff?

<andrew222> nope

<MatthewV> andrew222, does update-manager --help list the correct switch?

<MatthewV> it may be different, you are looking for the distribution upgrade switch

<andrew222> oh hang on. should it be sudo and not gksudo?

<MatthewV> andrew222, shouldnt make too much diff.. if running from terminal try with sudo

<MatthewV> andrew222, note... to upgrade to edgy at the moment (before release) you will also need to add -d behind that...

<MatthewV> so that'll be sudo update-manager -c -d

<andrew222> thanks

<andrew222> how long does the upgrade take?

<MatthewV> andrew222, first there will be around 600-700MB download, and then it will have to install it all... so it depends on speed of computer and connection speed

<MatthewV> for me (p3, 512 connection) there's around 4 hour download, then about 1.5-2 hours (iirc) installing

<MatthewV> maybe not that long installing...

<andrew222> I Have ADSL...

<andrew222> with broadband

<MatthewV> andrew222, depends on speed of broadband

<andrew222> I'm not sure...

<Autonomy> hmmmmm... FF 2.0 is quite nice! :)

<Phlosten> MatthewV: 1.5 hour install? sheesh

<MatthewV> Autonomy, it sure is!

<MatthewV> Phlosten, not sure.. trying to remember exactly how long... probably not that long, but i'm not sure

<Phlosten> ubuntu install is only about 30 mins for me

<siccness> what are you guys whinging about, 1hr 30mins for me to install Firefox

<andrew222> guys i have to go and let it upgrade...

<Autonomy> Phlosten: yah it went in about 32 for me

<andrew222> i might see u when it's fiished

* Phlosten ponders wiping his fc6 install

<adhoc_> w000p

<siccness> took you 45mins to get to the pub?

<siccness> time to break this box

* Phlosten passes siccness the sledgehammer

<Phlosten> futurama on, zoning out, brb

<MatthewV> hi pschulz01

<adhoc_> pubbage

<pschulz01> We're at the pub!. Hi adhoc_

<MatthewV> pschulz01, get a group photo before you forget :P

<MatthewV> or drink too much ;)

<pschulz01> Janet is taking one now..

<siccness> I doubt it man, they're south australians. They usually give up after 1 beer

<siccness> :D

<pschulz01> Actually .. she's taking several.

<adhoc_> hey elkbuntu, poke lucychili when we arrive homme for photos

<MatthewV> Janet?

<elkbuntu> ok cool

<adhoc_> MatthewV: yes that one

<siccness> I might have to go to the pub by myself, stare at the grey hounds and have my own party.

<adhoc_> is it done yet?

* pschulz01 slaps adhoc_

* adhoc_ steals pschulz01's beer

<ajmitch> morning

<lucychili_> greets

<quail-laptop> hey lucychili

<lucychili_> greets quail happy edgy

<MatthewV> not edgy yet lucychili_

* quail-laptop greets all at the bulgarian pub and says happy edgy

* MatthewV wonders if he should put a note on wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam once edgy is released

<pschulz01> shenki and xice have just turned up!

<quail-laptop> w00t

<quail-laptop> pschulz01: say hi to shenki for me

<quail-laptop> and xice

<pschulz01> Janet has just taken some more photos!

* MatthewV hopes xice's studies aren't adversely affected ;)

<pschulz01> brb

<Tatey> at the edgy release, with no Edgy? :P

<Autonomy> lol! I was talking to some ppl then who are VERY dissapointed with IE7; who are now switching to FF 2.0! Has anyone heard why (apart from being MS) why this is? My friends were obviously to heart-broken to ellaborate! Lol

<quail-laptop> lol

<MatthewV> Autonomy, supposed to be really good, and no better than ie6 ;)?

<Autonomy> :)

<MatthewV> Autonomy, and extra mouse travel with the forward/back buttons on one side and others on other side cant be good... probably buggy too

<Phlosten> hmm, is there a way to restart the usb hotplug system

<Phlosten> ?

<MotherLUG> Evening All

<MatthewV> hi MotherLUG

<MotherLUG> Hi MatthewV

<Phlosten> howdy MotherLUG

<MatthewV> Phlosten, sudo shutdown -r now :P

<MotherLUG> Phlosten, Hi DI Ho

<Phlosten> my system doesnt want to mount my flash drive

<MotherLUG> thoreauputic, Hello there. Are you coming to sclugs next meet?

<thoreauputic> MotherLUG: I hope to :) I know I haven't been around much lately

<MotherLUG> will be good to catch up with you

<thoreauputic> MotherLUG: Real Life (tm) keeps getting in my way....

<MotherLUG> I truely understand

<quail-laptop> hi MotherLUG how are you?

<Hit3k> what the hell

<Hit3k> there are updates of my updates

<MotherLUG> I'm good quail-laptop . How are you

<hantu-skul> ni hao quail

<hantu-skul> phlosten: is the hotplug system built in to ubuntu?

<hantu-skul> i cant seem to find the package, or im too dumb

<hantu-skul> higher possibility of the latter.

<MatthewV> hantu-skul, i think is something different now.. no longer hotplug

<Phlosten> i dunno, whatever it is that takes care of mounting usb devices

<thoreauputic> Phlosten: uses hal/dbus now I think

<hantu-skul> im tryin to make my laptop disable touchpad :o

<TheMuso> A combination of udev, dbus, hal, and gnome I think.

<hantu-skul> should really read up much of other stuffs.

<Phlosten> i restart dbus without luck

<MatthewV> Phlosten, why not just mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /media/usb ? that might work

<quail-laptop> MotherLUG: i good thx

<quail-laptop> hantu-skul: ni hao

<MatthewV> now update-manager is telling people 6.10 is available.. so... people yelling in #ubuntu :S

* Hit3k doesnt see any yelling

<yama> DO YOU SEE YELLING NOW?!

<Hit3k> artifical intelligence v2?

<Phlosten> /me wonders what type of filesystem is on his flash drive

<Hit3k> my usb is Fat32

<MatthewV> Phlosten, almost certainly fat32

<Phlosten> so vfat should do it

<Phlosten> i think i need to reboot

<Hit3k> do ittttttttttttt

<hantu-skul> mine's vfat too :o

<Hit3k> linux kernel or linux kernal

<hantu-skul> and everything i copied to the usb, when i mounted on my laptop, its all root :(

<Hit3k> 90kb/s :(

<elkbuntu> Hit3k, you woul dhave to upgrade to dapper before upgrading to edgy anyway

<Hit3k> elkbuntu, i know

<elkbuntu> you're probably best to leave it a few weeks for initial glitches to go away

<quail-laptop> hantu-skul: yeah i think so

<hantu-skul> what were you running, Hit3k

<hantu-skul> quail-laptop: but it looked fun :)

<quail-laptop> yeah it is

<quail-laptop> hehe

<Hit3k> lol

<TheColonial> classic stuff :)

<Autonomy> lol... my friend sent me that last night! :p it's funny as hell! you think they would have organised a different anchor for just one night :p i wonder how many phone calls were made to the station! :p

<TheColonial> lol. that cracked me up.

<Autonomy> "i think i know who your looking for!" :p

<Phlosten> heh

<TheColonial> hehe

<TheColonial> anyone here got themselves acquainted with Cedega?

<Phlosten> edgy is on distrowatch

<Phlosten> \o/

<Hit3k> finally

<hantu-skul> quail, how much does the ai2bot cost?

* Phlosten makes a request for edgy on the bigpond file servers

<quail-laptop> hantu-skul: $42

<hantu-skul> hrm.

<hantu-skul> im in vic :\

* Hit3k bitches to iprimus about an ubuntu repo

<siccness> I love my local pub

<siccness> Soon as I walk in there "Hey, coke or beer?"

<TheColonial> siccness: they're obviously stupid. surely they should just look at you, grunt in a base manner, and give you the amber nector.

<Phlosten> hmm, i think the only australian mirror with edgy release is getting hammered

<siccness> TheColonial: LOL

<TheColonial> :)

<siccness> Actually they're a great pub

<siccness> Plus there's this beautiful bartender

<hantu-skul> wheres this

<TheColonial> hehe

<siccness> The Knox Club

<hantu-skul> uh

<Hit3k> ohh

<Hit3k> I know where that is

<ThePizzaKing> me too

<Hit3k> Kilsyth > Knox though

<siccness> Kilsyth is a dump

<Autonomy> Anyone else here from Adelaide?

<Hit3k> it burnt down

<Hit3k> duhhhhhhh

<Phlosten> bah, torrents not working

<siccness> Twas a sad day, Hit3k

<Hit3k> the knox clubs getting rebuilt isnt it? or renovated

<siccness> renovated yeah

<siccness> They borrowed $3m to do it

* TheColonial is a Brisbane lad

<siccness> My uncle is like the president at the Dandenong Club

<Phlosten> bastards havent paid me back either ;)

<hantu-skul> whatcha lookin for Phlosten ?

<TheColonial> no idea about the Knox :D sounds dodgey to me ;)

<siccness> Pretty cool, rock up there and he gets free drinks

<siccness> Knox isn't dodgy at all.

<TheColonial> and since they let siccness in regularly they're bound to be dodgey ;)

<Phlosten> hantu-skul: edgy torrent download

<siccness> LOL

<hantu-skul> no australian mirror? :)

<TheColonial> siccness: it was cheap, but i went for it anyways :P

<hantu-skul> i mean, on ubuntu.com

<Hit3k> theres probably 1 seeder on about 100000 leechers

<siccness> Hahaha, mate, you fit in pretty bloody well here.

<TheColonial> siccness: thanking you muchly! i shall take that as a compliment considering the fine company i'm in.

<Phlosten> hantu-skul: only one of the ones listed has proper release, and it is slow

<siccness> :-)

<hantu-skul> urgh

<Phlosten> torrent wont connect, spits out error

<Hit3k> TheColonial, your definition of fine is pretty small isnt it :p

<siccness> Don't mind Hit3k, he's 10 years old.

<siccness> :-D

<TheColonial> Hit3k: yeah, i set my standards pretty low :P

<TheColonial> lol.

<Hit3k> D:

<Autonomy> I'm downloading from a UK mirror, and getting a consistant download speed. (I'm downloading the 'Alternate CD'; most would be downloading the Live (more than likley))

<TheColonial> siccness: that's the first time someone's thought that I'm OLDER than i actually am.

<TheColonial> mental age of course.

<TheMuso> Anybody found any NSW pipe mirrors with it yet?

<Phlosten> torrent going now

<siccness> Heh, TheColonial.

<Hit3k> elkbuntu, you know you love it ;)

<TheColonial> elkbuntu: would you like something a little more upper class or witty?

<Autonomy> I'm 22 (is that old? :)) :p

<Hit3k> budumpcha

<TheColonial> one says : man, i've just lost an electron!

<TheColonial> the other says: are you sure?

<siccness> LOL

<TheColonial> :)

<siccness> I love it

<Autonomy> hehe

<Hit3k> I GET IT

<TheColonial> hhrrrm... bad response.. perhaps i should go back to wee jokes?

<siccness> Anyways, anyone upgraded to edgy?

<TheColonial> that's one of my favs to be honest.

<Autonomy> My favourite joke: What did the farmer say to the cow on the roof?

<TheColonial> what?

<Autonomy> get down

<ThePizzaKing> hehehe

<hantu-skul> moo!

<Hit3k> a bear walked into a bar

<Hit3k> ouch

<TheColonial> siccness: i'm thinking about it, but i want to make sure that i'm not going to lose out on anything.

<TheColonial> ah, so the oldies are coming thick and fast

<hantu-skul> i probably wont upgrade the laptop to edgy

<siccness> TheColonial: You just set your Dapper up, I wouldn't bother.

<TheColonial> siccness: agreed :)

<siccness> Atleast begin to learn the distro

<hantu-skul> im thinkin of runnin ff2 here tho.

<TheColonial> all: What did Tarzan say when he saw the elephants coming?

<Autonomy> ?

<TheColonial> "look, here come the elephants!"

<Hit3k> im updating my laptop to edgy

* hantu-skul slaps TheColonial

<TheColonial> BOOM BOOM

<Hit3k> not my desktop though

<hantu-skul> its pretty lame!

<TheColonial> i'll be here til thursday.. be sure to tip your waitress

<TheColonial> so what are the main plusses of moving to edgy?

<Hit3k> the waitress is ugly and has no ass

<Hit3k> think i'll pass

<TheColonial> take what you can get ;)

<siccness> TheColonial: I haven't seen any

<Autonomy> Two saussages on a BBQ. One sais 'Ouch It's hot in here!'.... The other sais: 'OH MY GOD! A talking saussage!' :)

<TheColonial> Autonomy: now that actually made me laugh :)

<thoreauputic> TheColonial: geek cred points ;p

<TheColonial> thoreauputic: :D

<purserj> Hit3k: /win 8

<TheColonial> thoreauputic: i need some of those...

<Hit3k> im not typing that

<Hit3k> mainly because its an unknown command and its stupid to type those

<hantu-skul> seriously i have an urge to run ff2 on dapper :o

<hantu-skul> is there a deb

<Autonomy> I have a joke... But it's not "appropriate" for youngins... plus it's crude! lol

<Hit3k> didnt someone here make one

<siccness> apparently under edgy repos

<siccness> Be normal and compile it.

<siccness> Like real men do.

<Hit3k> siccness, you just emerge

<Hit3k> theres no fun in that

<siccness> not true

<siccness> ff2 wasnt in portage

<siccness> it is now tho

<Hit3k> oh

<siccness> they took their time too

<hantu-skul> i might just ocmpile it

<hantu-skul> :D

<Hit3k> I havnt performed a successful gentoo install in ages i think i've lost my touch with this nancy selfinstall crap

<siccness> with optimizations mannnn!

<siccness> load firefox .0000000000000001s quicker!

<Hit3k> --without-tabs? :P

<siccness> :)

<siccness> The gentoo installer blows, Hit3k

<hantu-skul> they do they do, siccness

<Hit3k> siccness, I know I like minimal

<hantu-skul> i left gentoo in my closet

<siccness> I still find it more fun then ubuntu tho

<hantu-skul> gawd, all this people are acting like they're in te brothel

<hantu-skul> kissing and touching all over :o

<Hit3k> debian etch looks like its got anaconda or something as the installer

<siccness> lol

<Autonomy> hit3k... yep, i believe it does

<siccness> Anaconda isn't too bad.

<Hit3k> except when it installs fedora

<siccness> LOL

<thoreauputic> Hit3k: if you play it backwards it installs Linspire ;p

<Tatey> siccness: Gentoo doesn't have an installer :P

<TheColonial> lol

<Hit3k> Tatey, yes it does

<siccness> Tatey: Heh, well I wouldn't call the GUI an installer.

<siccness> I'd call it a "disaster"

<hantu-skul> woo.

<siccness> (GTK)

<Tatey> actually, the Gentoo installer doesn't really bother me. I know it off by heart, it's logical if you think about it

<siccness> I know it off by heart now too, so it's fine.

<siccness> But I don't like to use it.

<Hit3k> One day I'm gonna write a bash script for it

<siccness> Been done

<Hit3k> Yeah but i want to write my own for the experience

<siccness> Heh

<Hit3k> what the hell are the edgy mirrors

<Hit3k> nvm

<TheColonial> righto lads, i'm outta here... have a splendid evening.

<siccness> You too mate, take care.

<hantu-skul> ou too

<Hit3k> jolly good old chap

<Phlosten> cya TheColonial

<TheColonial> hehe

<TheColonial> ciao!

<Phlosten> marvelous

<siccness> Has anyone here mastered the use of 'yum' yet?

<hantu-skul> never really used fc

<Phlosten> i mastered its deletion

<hantu-skul> :o

<siccness> Phlosten: Haha

<Autonomy> Yay... only 3 hours left on my download! :s I'm not sleeping tonight :p

<Phlosten> fc6 didnt even last 24 hours

<siccness> Yeah, I have difficulty with RPM

<siccness> :|

<Phlosten> "Time Remaining: About 5 Hours" :|

<siccness> You guys need better connections :P

<Phlosten> fc6 has the suckiest package management

<Phlosten> its dark ages stuff

<Phlosten> bring on synaptic!

<Phlosten> couldnt get aiglx functioning

<Phlosten> who knows what they did to Xorg

<Hit3k> I was thinking i might put synaptic on my LFS if i ever finish it

<Hit3k> FC6 has nice artwork though

<Phlosten> one day i will look into LFS, however that day may be a long while off yet

<Phlosten> Hit3k: i love the artwork. i thought today about ripping it off with a Ubuntu version :)

<Hit3k> I think I still have the partition with it on that i was working on

<elkbuntu> Phlosten, um... you love the artwork?

<Tatey> where's the torrent file?

<siccness> ubuntu-6.10-rc-desktop-i386.iso 1012KB/sec

<Phlosten> elkbuntu: yes, i think the wallpaper is splendid

<Hit3k> Phlosten, the FC6 bubble background has an ubuntu version apparently

<elkbuntu> Phlosten, it happens to be breezy artwork

<Phlosten> really? *puzzled look*

<elkbuntu> oh, you're talking fc6, ok sorry :-/

<Phlosten> ah. yes

<siccness> Heh

<Phlosten> that 'other' distro

<Hit3k> I'm just gonna order some CDs

<Phlosten> the one that shall not be mentioned

<Hit3k> cant be stuffed downloading it

<elkbuntu> well you *are* in an ubuntu channel :Þ

<Phlosten> ....again

<siccness> Sif anyone here talks about ubuntu :P

<siccness> it's all about gentoo BABY!

<Phlosten> ooo booon tooo

<Hit3k> lets talk about slackware

<siccness> No thanks.

<Phlosten> boonie!

<Hit3k> boontu

<Hit3k> i used to pronounce it u bun too

<siccness> That's a good story.

<Tatey> I was more "eww bun too"

<Hit3k> it took a gentoo user to correct me

<siccness> We as Gentoo users are of high intelligence.

<Phlosten> you! get me a bun too!

<siccness> 50% on edgy

<siccness> 7mins remaining

<Tatey> 10% here

<Hit3k> 0% here

<Phlosten> 9% *cries*

<siccness> I'm only getting RC

<Tatey> torrent is going pretty slow, only ~200kb/sec

<siccness> ill download all the RCs

<siccness> while i wait for bigpond to put them on the fileserver

* Phlosten is hungry

* Phlosten want food

<Hit3k> Need to get 997MB of archives.

<Hit3k> After unpacking 332MB of additional disk space will be used.

* Tatey just came back from going out for dinner

<Hit3k> holy crap

<Hit3k> thats a big upgrade

<Hit3k> Especially for wireless at 11kb/s

<Phlosten> Tatey: and you didnt think to drop some food off to me? how rude!

<Tatey> hah!

<Phlosten> i think some dimmie sims are in order

<Hit3k> fuck upgrading my laptop

<Tatey> I'm converting my mates GF to Ubuntu Linux, from Windows XP. I've been waiting until Edgy was released to do so

<Hit3k> your mates girlfriend

<Hit3k> ?

<Tatey> yes

<siccness> SabayonLinux sounds pretty cool

<Phlosten> woot, my second home brew batch is ready for bottling

<bokey> hi all :)

<Phlosten> sodium metasomething

<bokey> i am trying to setup apache. need some advice.

<bokey> i've been to #apache (it stinks there) and everyone's dead. :)

<Tatey> what's up?

<bokey> Tatey,

<quail-laptop> sudo apt-get install apache2

<bokey> quail-laptop, that's already done.

<siccness> what do you need help on?

<quail-laptop> bokey: >>> http://www.howtoforge.com/taxonomy_menu/1/3?s=26f9492dc0411ca1637dbaa192c93706&

<siccness> make a public_html file in your /home/username directory

<siccness> s/file/folder

<siccness> and throw all your crap in that folder

<siccness> and it's good to go :)

<Phlosten> or use /var/www that is already setup

<Hit3k> dont you have to redirect it to that?

<siccness> no, Hit3k

<siccness> Phlosten: or not.

<Hit3k> what if multiple users have publis_html?

<Hit3k> localthost/username/

<siccness> you access via ~username/index.html

<Hit3k> ?

<Phlosten> however having it in home is good for easy backup purposes

<Hit3k> ah

<siccness> <--doesnt like putting files in anything other than /home/username

<Hit3k> oh yeah

<Hit3k> family guy is on tonight

<Hit3k> almost forgot

<bokey> yeah apologies.

<quail-laptop> bokey: >>> http://www.howtoforge.com/taxonomy_menu/1/3?s=26f9492dc0411ca1637dbaa192c93706&

<bokey> quail-laptop, the specific problem is that my local lan sees apache @ 10.1.1.2:8083 but my public IP address (202.x.x.x:8082) is dead.

<Hit3k> use port forwarding..

<bokey> Hit3k, i did that. 8082 -> 10.1.1.2:8082

<bokey> Hit3k, in the router.

<Hit3k> you have to do it in the modem as well afaik

<JonathanFerguson> bokey, try http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://202.X.X.X:8082/

<boka> worst day!

<boka> connections dropping out, everything's fucked

<boka> ':(

<boka> shouldn't be a rocket science, regarding setting up apache server and port forwarding

<Hit3k> yeah but even rocket scientists have trouble with the simplest of tasks

<TigerWolf> it out yet?

<TigerWolf> must be - servers slow as

<Hit3k> it is

<siccness> Yeah

<siccness> Download SabayonLinux while you're waiting

<Hit3k> what is its default wm/gui

<siccness> im guessing gnome

<Hit3k> link

<thoreauputic> au.releases.ubuntu.com appears to be slashdotted ;)

<siccness> http://www.sabayonlinux.org/

<siccness> It's based on Gentoo

<Hit3k> ohh

<Hit3k> is it similar to VLOS?

<siccness> Default Desktop is KDE

<Hit3k> from whats on the front page looks like kde

<Hit3k> it comes preinstalled with beryl?

<siccness> Comes preinstalled with most shit

<siccness> I've never used it

<quail-laptop> w00t my LUG web site got a mention on Mark Shuttleworths site >>> http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/63#comment-9942

<siccness> Sweet, ask for money.

<quail-laptop> lol

<Hit3k> im sure he wont mind

<Hit3k> he is rich after all

<hantu-skul> he might send you a spaceship

<hantu-skul> :o

<Hit3k> or some free ubuntu merch

<quail-laptop> i have got 88 hit cause of it

<siccness> I wonder if Shuttleworth changed his name

<quail-laptop> hits

<siccness> Hit3k: http://www.sabayonlinux.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=9586

<Hit3k> 2.6.18 Kernel

<Hit3k> :)

<siccness> yup

<siccness> Sounds as if ATI/Nvidia related issues are non-existant in the distro too

<Hit3k> yeah it sounds like a gentoo ubuntu sorta

<siccness> Yeha

<Hit3k> except i had issues with my ATi card on ubuntu

<Hit3k> Sabayon is an Italian dessert made with egg yolks, sugar, a sweet liquor (usually Marsala wine <--- typical

<elkbuntu> mmmm marsala wine

<elkbuntu> must remember to get another bottle of that :)

<Hit3k> any good

<Hit3k> too young to drink

<siccness> No, it's crap, Hit3k

<Hit3k> oh

<siccness> elkbuntu's taste buds are just crap.

<lucychili> um pong

<Hit3k> i count all wine as crap anyway

<elkbuntu> lol

<siccness> elkbuntu is too young to understand good alcohol.

<elkbuntu> marsala is a sweet fortified wine that has a rather chocolatey palette

<Hit3k> i count all wine as crap, Just like ford drivers

<siccness> Yeah, Ford drivers suck.

<quail-laptop> go the holdens

<Hit3k> skaife sucks though

<siccness> Skaife's a tool

<siccness> Rick Kelly :D

<quail-laptop> yeah Rick Kelly is great

<Hit3k> i have a poster and hat signed by him

<siccness> Plus, Rick Kelly is pretty sexy

<quail-laptop> his bother not to bad too

<siccness> Todd Kelly got talent

<siccness> Just needs to show us

<siccness> Which he has lately

<Hit3k> i agree

<quail-laptop> :-)

<siccness> Tander's cool too

<siccness> Murphy too

<siccness> Skaife is basically the only person who drives a Holden that I don't really like

<Hit3k> siccness, the only problem i see with sabayon is: When you exit ColdWar or Quake4 (if you boot with "coldwar" or "quake4") the System will shut down automatically.

<siccness> That's no problem for me

<Tatey> there should be a #ubuntu-au-offtopic :P

<siccness> Heh

<Hit3k> i thought this was an offtopic room :p

<siccness> I'm gonna watch Murphy/Kmart bathurst lap record

<elkbuntu> Tatey, its tempting, but it's not as though there's any support requests ;)

<Hit3k> yet

<siccness> Even then the support requester joins in on the offtopic, elkbuntu.

<elkbuntu> yeah hehe

<Hit3k> i didnt even know there was a #ubuntu-au

<siccness> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmkUVSVHoc8

<Tatey> elkbuntu: that's true. Not having an attack at anyone, but I always notice that there is more discussion about distributions other than Ubuntu, than Ubuntu :P

<elkbuntu> one thing i object to, is being told to shut up about ubuntu so you guys can talk frigging gentoo :Þ

<Hit3k> we never said shutup

<Hit3k> theres nothing wrong with gentoo.

<Tatey> there's lots of things wrong with Gentoo :P

<elkbuntu> Hit3k, im sure there isnt.. in a GENTOO CHANNEL

<siccness> too bad elkbuntu, i make the urles around here :)

<siccness> *rules

*** ChanServ sets mode: +o elkbuntu

<Hit3k> elkbuntu, we dont bother anyone do we?
