I should be there Saturday. Is it Friday as well? <dscassel> Yeah, they close at 8. <dscassel> (they're letting us stay a little later) <wmpedersen> I got kind of bored, so I threw together a new banner logo for the site using the orange/white one from Launchpad. The sharp rectangle was bugging me. <wmpedersen> I hope that's cool <wmpedersen> of course, you don't have to use it <wmpedersen> I can upload them somehere if you'd like to take a look. <dscassel> wmpedersen: Sure.

Probably a good thing I can't see outside though, raining and raining til Sun <BluesKaj> yeah, we had some snow last nite , now it's sloppy and slushy and it's gonna rain for 2-3 days :( <genii-around> dscassel or txwikinger .. Last year I posted an independent release party for Lucid at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseParties but it looks like now that way is deprecated, the page referenced to announce on is http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/744/detail/ ..but I'm not directly affiliated with the Canadian team <txwikinger> genii-around: doesn't matter <txwikinger> As long as you are compliant with the CoC I do not have a problem posting something for you <genii-around> Cool <genii-around> txwikinger: Could I pm you the details? <txwikinger> sure <BluesKaj> interesting, my IP address shows me ni Geraldton, Sault ste Marie, North Bay , Mississauga ,Toronto ,Ottawa even the town live in once in a while :) #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-11 <BluesKaj> hiyas * genii-around slides txwikinger a coffee <txwikinger> hi <txwikinger> Is the announcement on the loco site ok? <genii-around> txwikinger: Yup, is fine! I just went and added in that I'm attending with 2 guests actually <txwikinger> cool <txwikinger> I need to make our announcements too :D <genii-around> Are you guys doing anything in Kitchener? <txwikinger> Yes we will have a release party on 30 April and a global jam event on 2 April <txwikinger> Tomorrow we have an open data code fest <txwikinger> http://drupal.txwikinger.me.uk/content/inaugural-open-data-waterloo-region-codefest-saturday-march-12-2011 <genii-around> Heh. I noticed the UBB petition there <txwikinger> Well.. if nobody does anything Parliament does what it wants <dscassel> txwikinger: I'm getting the "Only site administrators can create new user accounts." error when I try to log into the website now. :/ <dscassel> (via OpenID) <txwikinger> Did you try to login without OpenID? <dscassel> If I set my password, I've forgotten it. <dscassel> (The password I would have set doesn't work) <dscassel> "Request new password" gives me an access denied as well. <BluesKaj> , pretty useless <dscassel> A little frustrating, yes. :) <txwikinger> Yeah.. I have the same <txwikinger> let me make some changes <txwikinger> dscassel: Try now OpenId #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-12 <BluesKaj> Howdy folks #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-13 <BluesKaj> howdy <BobJonkman> Help me, Internets! My five-year old niece is using an old laptop running Xubuntu 9.10, and I want to load it with some games for her. I'm not getting much info from http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?mode=exactfilename&suite=karmic&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=games <bregma> BobJonkman, did you try "apt-cache search game"? <BobJonkman> bregma: Yup, (actually, apt-cache dump | grep game) but from that list couldn't determine what was suitable for 5yr olds. Installed gcompris, passed on any of the KDE dependent games and rogue-like games... <BobJonkman> Anyway, she's happy for now (I think) * KombuchaKip reminds everyone to set their clocks ahead one hour where necessary for DST. #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-14 <BluesKaj> Hiyas * genii-around makes more coffee #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-15 <BluesKaj> Hiyas <dscassel> Morning, BluesKaj :) * genii-around makes a fresh, large pot of coffee and thinks about cupcake decorations * staticsafe prefers tea <staticsafe> and hey dca <staticsafe> and hey dscassel <BluesKaj> 'Morning, dscassel , genii-around, staticsafe <dscassel> Tea. Good idea. <dscassel> Morning, staticsafe :) <staticsafe> morning <genii-around> BluesKaj: Mornin' :) I'm happier today now that the weather is decent. <staticsafe> hey, any of you guys in Toronto? <genii-around> I am <staticsafe> it would be cool if we had a Ubuntu event in Toronto, genii-around <genii-around> staticsafe: I'm holding a release party for Natty <genii-around> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/781/detail/ <genii-around> I held one for Lucid in same place but got ill and missed Maverick. But hoping to do each next release from here <staticsafe> genii-around: nice nice, i can defintitely come <staticsafe> registering now <genii-around> Cool * staticsafe adds event to Gcal <staticsafe> genii-around: i'll send a message to the TLUG mailing list about the event as well <genii-around> staticsafe: I was going to tell Colin McGregor, we are both FreeNet guys. But I won't see him until our board meeting tomorrow. <dscassel> staticsafe: There are lots of Toronto Ubuntu people around, but not too many people (genii-around being a welcome exception) doing much organizing. <dscassel> We'd appreciate your help if you wanted to start something. :) <staticsafe> dscassel: heh, i've never organized an event before, so i have no experience <dscassel> No experience necessary. :D <staticsafe> dscassel: what sort of event are we talking about? <dscassel> The easiest thing people can do is start an Ubuntu Hour: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hour <staticsafe> hmm <dscassel> Just hang out in a cafe and chat with fellow Ubuntu users. It doesn't even have to be about Ubuntu. <dscassel> The only tricky part is publicizing it, but we can help with that. :) <staticsafe> dscassel: i can also ask on the TLUG mailing list, also need some possible venues <BluesKaj> I'd like to attend as well, altho it's a 5 hr drive for me , and no laptop , so it would be like playing hockey without a stick :) <dscassel> Linuxcaffe is the obvious one, but for an Hour, it can be anywhere that is happy to have small groups congregating. <dscassel> BluesKaj: You could always start a Sudbury Ubuntu Hour. Who knows, somebody might show up. :) <BluesKaj> dscassel, well, i contacted a couple of Linux Club guys in Sudbury , but it's a pretty loose arrangement and poorly organized . Also I live in a small town 75km west of Sudbury. <dscassel> BluesKaj: Yeah that makes it trickier. <staticsafe> dscassel: im writing an e-mail to TLUG as we speak. :) <dscassel> OTOH, loose arrangements are what things like the Ubuntu Hour are all about. It's good to meet up face to face once in a while. <dscassel> staticsafe: Cool. :) <dscassel> Oh yeah, IRC meeting tonight. <staticsafe> :O <dscassel> http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/team/35/detail/ <dscassel> I'd kinda forgot about it. <dscassel> Good thing I leave myself notes. <BluesKaj> dscassel, so the Toronto meeting would fine for me if I had a laptop , I think it would be interesting , but I don't plan on buying one til June or July <staticsafe> heh the only laptop i have is my Macbook Pro. :P <dscassel> BluesKaj: You don't need a laptop to socialize. (I hear some Ubuntu Hours ban laptops. I wouldn't dare do that myself... :) <BluesKaj> dscassel, :) <staticsafe> dscassel: how does this e-mail look to you - http://puu.sh/1dQR <dscassel> staticsafe: Looks great to me. :) <staticsafe> dscassel: alright, will send it now <staticsafe> also got something cool for you guys - http://sprki.com/computer-hardware-chart.html <BluesKaj> staticsafe, on what street/block is the linuxcaffe located ? <staticsafe> BluesKaj: it's on 326 Harbord Street, closest intersection seems to be Bloor St W and Bathurst St <BluesKaj> ok, thanks staticsafe <staticsafe> np <KombuchaKip> Get your gas masks folks. All three reactors melt down imminent. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1365781/Japan-earthquake-tsunami-All-3-Fukushima-nuclear-plant-reactors-meltdown.html <gchisholm> I'd rather a radiation suit ;) <BluesKaj> KombuchaKip, yeah dailymail , areal trusted source :) <KombuchaKip> http://e.nikkei.com/e/fr/tnks/Nni20110312D12JFF03.htm <bregma> those reactors are designed for meltdown, it's not a bad thing <bregma> containment breach, now that's a bad thing <bregma> a meltdown would prevent containment breach <hypatia> meeting! <hypatia> almost forgot :) <dscassel> Meeting! <dscassel> :D <hypatia> do we have an agenda? <dscassel> I'm still getting set up.

Same as the old agenda, really. <hypatia> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2011-03-15 <-- agenda <dscassel> Unless people want to argue about what Mark said to some Gnome developer in 2008. <hypatia> hahaha please no <dscassel> It seems to be a popular passtime these days.

Our party is going to be Apr 30. :) <dscassel> So, Toronto stuff. <komputes> dscassel: whats the game? <dscassel> staticsafe: have you met hypatia? <hypatia> release party! <txwikinger> Toronto will have a Relese party http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/781/detail/ <txwikinger> Not sure if there are additional events planned in Toronto? <komputes> dscassel: I have no problem with Ubuntu-CA publishing Ubuntu-QC events in English. I find most of the discussion in QC is in French. <dscassel> komputes: Bunch of stuff. http://kwartzlab.ca/mediawiki/index.php/LAN_Party_Event_Planning#The_Games <dscassel> hypatia: Yeah! genii-around is giving it another go. <komputes> dscassel: I'm in for OpenArena; at least it's the one I have most experience with. <dscassel> Teeworlds is fun and easy. :) <komputes> dscassel: Apr 30th, what time? <staticsafe> sorry dscassel stepped outside for a bit <dscassel> Probably afternoon-ish. It'll likely go for a bit. <dscassel> komputes: We can work out details later. :) <hypatia> another toronto event coming up is maker faire: http://makerfairetoronto.ca/ <komputes> dscassel: sounds good, I marked the 30th afternoonish for the LAN part <dscassel> hypatia: I'll definitely be there. Should we put together a booth or something? <komputes> oops, april, done <dscassel> Or just wander around handing out CDs and stickers? <komputes> Hoping I could get to play from Montreal. <dscassel> komputes: A pan-Canadian LAN party would be awesome. :D <staticsafe> indeed <komputes> indeed <hypatia> dscassel: we'd be happy to have ubuntu stickers and cd's at the hacklab booth <staticsafe> may I suggest a FPS? Urban Terror is the name. :) <komputes> it becomes a WAN party then ;) <dscassel> ...true... <dscassel> There'll be another meeting before the release party. <BobJonkman> Pan-Canadian LAN party == PanCanLan <hypatia> oh good <hypatia> BobJonkman: i love it <dscassel> This is your last chance to talk about Jams, though. Except, you know, for pinging me on IRC any time... <dscassel> We're thinking of doing our own Jam earlier in the Oneiric cycle. This is kind of late for dev contributions. <dscassel> They really want people to test, however. <staticsafe> dscassel: can I add Ubuntu Hours to the agenda? <dscassel> staticsafe: Definitely. I wanted to at least mention the Jam first. :) <dscassel> So, staticsafe, any news on Ubuntu Hours? :) <staticsafe> dscassel: I asked around on TLUG, got some questions, some nitpicking, no real interest yet <hypatia> nitpicking? tlug? never. :p <dscassel> heh. <dscassel> staticsafe is planning on starting up a Toronto Hour. Which I think is a fantastic idea. :) <hypatia> yay! <hypatia> that's fantastic <txwikinger> Well. Ubuntu hours are often something more external not necessarily part of LUGs <BobJonkman> I've started an Ubuntu Hour in Kitchener. actually, I was just hanging around in the Little Bean Cafe anyway, and just called it an Ubuntu Hour. <BobJonkman> And then some other people showed up! <hypatia> BobJonkman: i think that's the general idea, no? <txwikinger> Magicfab started them by just being in a coffee shop or something like that <dscassel> BobJonkman: Awesome! That's exactly the idea. <staticsafe> I was thinking Linux Caffe. :) <staticsafe> but any other suitable place would do <hypatia> i'm sure djp would be happy to host it <txwikinger> Take some Ubuntu place cards on the table and let people ask questions <hypatia> HackLAb is less good for UH because we don't have food :/ <staticsafe> txwikinger: where can I get some of those? :O <txwikinger> staticsafe: Well Linuxcaffee is nice, but most people there probaly already know about FLOSS.. Other places probably have more advertisement value <dscassel> Just getting started with a regular meetup goes a long way to building up the community. <txwikinger> staticsafe: make some yourself? <hypatia> txwikinger: not really true <staticsafe> hmm <BobJonkman> Have a placecard on me: http://sobac.com/temp/ubuntu/ ODF Draw file, or JPG image <staticsafe> thanks BobJonkman <hypatia> lots of just randome coffee people at LC <txwikinger> hypatia: well.. educate me.. I never made it to the Linuxcaffee yet :D <hypatia> and UH isn't just about outreaching to random people <hypatia> it's about building community for people who are already involved <hypatia> txwikinger: it's a regular coffee shop for most patrons <txwikinger> hypatia: cool.. well then it is certainly a good place too <dscassel> How to run an Ubuntu Hour: http://askubuntu.com/questions/7/how-do-i-run-a-successful-ubuntu-hour <hypatia> dscassel: nice * hypatia bookmarks * bhrams might be down for a Toronto UH <txwikinger> Make sure the Ubuntu hour is put on the loco schedule <txwikinger> Then I might also even blog about it * staticsafe opens up loco page <dscassel> We've got to put these up on the web page as well. * dscassel makes a note to self <staticsafe> hmm, how do I add a scheduled even? <staticsafe> event* <dscassel> staticsafe: First, log in. <staticsafe> dscassel: already am. :) <dscassel> Then there should be an "add event" link. <dscassel> You have to be a member of the Ubuntu-ca launchpad team. <staticsafe> dscassel: hmm, I logged alexanderlisa@example.com <billybigrigger> howdy all <txwikinger> no.. it alexanderlisa@example.com <dscassel> staticsafe: Yeah. http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ca <staticsafe> ah <staticsafe> ty <dscassel> We can set you up with a webpage login too, but that's a little more involved. Talk to txwikinger later. <staticsafe> alright, cool <BobJonkman> Speaking of Web page... <dscassel> BobJonkman: Let's do UDS first. <BobJonkman> OK <dscassel> UDS! (It's 7:45...) <dscassel> hypatia: What's involved in sponsorship? I have no idea. <hypatia> ok! so <hypatia> you go to http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-o/ <hypatia> you sign in <hypatia> and you submit a form, which is a multi-stage process <hypatia> i've documented the steps on the ubuntu women wiki <hypatia> http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/UDS <hypatia> which also has more info about the application process <hypatia> basically you have to do a writeup of your contributions in the past cycle, and talk about what you want to do in the next cycle <txwikinger> And then you have to do some chores at the UDS event. Like be a runner and hanging up posters of the sessions etc <txwikinger> that is if you are sponsored <hypatia> yup <dscassel> UDS is awesome, by the way. Even if you can't spend a week in Budapest, you can follow along online. <dscassel> There's audio streaming and IRC chats for every session. <hypatia> yup, all the sessions are simulcast <dscassel> You get a very good idea for how Ubuntu actually works. <txwikinger> Yes.. the only thing you are missing on the remote participation are the hallway talks and the socialising, but all the sessions you can participate <txwikinger> Anymore questions/points for UDS sponsorship? <dscassel> Anybody is welcome to attend UDS. Sponsorship means Canonical will pay for you to be there. <hypatia> that's all i've got, txwikinger <dscassel> Okay. Almost 8. We should move onto the web page. <hypatia> yup <txwikinger> BobJonkman1: ? <dscassel> wmpetersen sent us an updated site logo, and tonyyarusso updated the theme. <BobJonkman1> Sorry. Flaky BIOS, laptop keeps locking up. Only BIOS upgrade available is for Windows... <dscassel> I'm not entirely sure where that updated theme is, but we should get it on launchpad. <BobJonkman1> So, I still can't log into http://ubuntu-ca.org <dscassel> BobJonkman1: we'll forgive you. <BobJonkman1> I get various errors, the latest (today) being that "User bjonkman already exists" <dscassel> We're still having OpenID issues, apparently. <BobJonkman1> Yes, I log in with OpenID <komputes> txwikinger: the only thing you are missing on the remote participation is the drinking <staticsafe> heh komputes * staticsafe is underage <BobJonkman1> Usually with http://sobac.com/bjonkman which contains a redirect to https://launchpad.net/~bjonkman <txwikinger> BobJonkman1: There is some mess with the launchpad openid plugin <dscassel> staticsafe: I don't think that's an issue in Hungary. :) <hypatia> staticsafe: probably not underage in hungary, haha <hypatia> dscassel: jinx <dscassel> :D * dscassel doesn't drink. 9_9 <txwikinger> staticsafe: they have lemonade in Hungary ;) <komputes> omg they do? now i'm super excited :-D <txwikinger> komputes: You can drink at home too * komputes cracks one open * staticsafe sticks to milk <txwikinger> BobJonkman1: Maybe it is best we hook up one of those days and I help you through the process to fix your account to work with openid again <BobJonkman1> OK, offline. Show up for a Kitchener Ubuntu Hour one morning :-) <txwikinger> BobJonkman1: Some people work at those times :D <hypatia> laters BobJonkman1 #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-16 <BobJonkman1> Yes, sadly I will be returning to regular hours in April. So someone will have to take over... <dscassel> BobJonkman1: There's always the monthly Waterloo hour. :) <BobJonkman1> Hurray! <dscassel> Whelp, it's 8. if anybody needs help getting LoCo directory events set up or getting access to the website (maybe), we'll be online for a bit. <dscassel> Ask away. <komputes> If anyone here is testing Natty and has bugs they would like to discuss, feel free to send Bug URLs my way on a private message. <txwikinger> next meeting will be sometime before the release parties maybe about 10-14 days before that <staticsafe> heh, can't wait till Natty comes out. <dscassel> Thanks, komputes. <dscassel> I'll be upgrading my netbook in the next couple days. * txwikinger has already one natty server running <komputes> staticsafe: Remember Beta is March 31st <dscassel> (I can live without it if it falls over. :) <staticsafe> I wanna give Ubuntu another go on my Macbook Pro <staticsafe> so I'm waiting till Natty <komputes> staticsafe: MBP 7,1 ? <staticsafe> komputes: 5,5 <staticsafe> late 2009 model <staticsafe> i have installed lucid and maverick on it before, just waiting till natty comes out to install Ubuntu on it <komputes> staticsafe: oh. have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-5/Maverick and write up diffs for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-5/Natty if you can. <staticsafe> will do <komputes> staticsafe: feel free to ping me if you need help <staticsafe> cool <BobJonkman1> Things have gone quiet. Is the meeting over? <dscassel> BobJonkman1: Yup. but people are still around. <BobJonkman1> OK... Among other laptop miseries, yesterday I tried out "indicator-network" as recommened by http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/03/indicator-network-is-looking-good-in-natty/ <BobJonkman1> It's not as slick in Meekrat as it will be in Narwhal, so I removed it. <BobJonkman1> But now my Bluetooth is missing; and I miss my BT Mouse. <BobJonkman1> Any hints on how to restore BT? The "System, Preferences, Bluetooth" tool doesn't show any Bluetooth devices on my laptop. <BobJonkman1> The "System, Preferences, Bluetooth Manager" tool shows previously used BT devices, but gives the error message "Connection Failed: Host is down (112)" <BobJonkman1> O HO! Just went through the setup and pairing process again, and now my BT Mouse is restored. <dscassel> Bluetooth mice always seem to get shafted. <Amgine> argh. I was out having dinner and missed the meting. <willwh> << me too <willwh> I just got back in the door :( <dscassel> Amgine, willwh anything you want to add? :) <Amgine> Unfortunately I'm being pinged to death and haven't had a chance to read the backscroll... but likely not. <willwh> dscassel: nor me likely, actually not running ubuntu on any of my boxes <willwh> all servers are debian squeeze now :o <willwh> laptop is running arch <dscassel> *shrug*, we've got a few Debian people in our Ubuntu Waterloo group. <willwh> yah :] <dscassel> I'm not offended. :) <willwh> s'why I'm still ere <willwh> just likely don't have too much to contrib tonight <willwh> anyone here use drupal? <willwh> I am looking for some tips on my debugging environment <willwh> trying to learn php <dscassel> txwikinger is a drupal guy. BobJonkman1 does some as well. <dscassel> (I try not to touch it. :) <Amgine> <mediawiki person> <dscassel> willwh: Are you trying to debug a module? Or Drupal itself? <willwh> a module :] <dscassel> (not that I have too many suggestions...) <willwh> yeah - well - I have my lamp box under teh floor (server) <willwh> so have xdebug, eclipse etc <willwh> and - I guess this module is in a state of flux <Amgine> I know a wonderful drupal person, but I don't think she's cheap. <Amgine> https://identi.ca/notice/67070502 <- Majnoona is Evan's SO, http://www.majink.org <whoaski> can anybody help me w/ my server? <whoaski> i just installed ubuntu 10.10 server on a computer with apache2,mysql, and rails <whoaski> but I don't know how to configure it from the command line <whoaski> anybody know any resources or links to learn the command line for ubuntu? <BluesKaj> howdy * genii-around makes coffee <dscassel> Morning, BluesKaj, genii-around <BluesKaj> 'Morning , genii-around, dscassel * genii-around passes around the breakfast bagels <wmat> morning * BluesKaj watches the snow melt....kinda boring <BluesKaj> 'Morning, wmat * BluesKaj wonders what going on with this german guy sipherdee, joining and flooding <cyphermox> BluesKaj, I think sipherdee actually isn't there but his bouncer has issues <BluesKaj> cyphermox, right , he's probly got an malfunctioning autojoin in his irc client <dscassel> I ignore joins parts and quits. That's probably why I'm not seeing any shenanigans. <dscassel> If it's a problem, I can see if I can do something about it. <cyphermox> dscassel, wise move <dscassel> But I'm pretty ignorant about IRC stuff, still <cyphermox> dscassel, dunno. I banned him on #ubuntu-qc after sending him a memo to tell him to ping me when his stuff is fixed today, and I'll clean up the ban later regardless <cyphermox> it's not overly disruptive anyway * BluesKaj prefers to see who joins and quits , guess it's just my curious nature <dscassel> It's kind of annoying when someone you go to talk to has already left and you don't know about it. <dscassel> But otherwise, it's just too much noise. <dscassel> I kinda wish sometimes I had one of those new-fangled "GUI" IRC clients that just showed you who was there. <dscassel> But I <3 screen + irssi. I could never leave it. <komputes> dscassel: hey there <cyphermox> dscassel, gotta agree there that irssi + screen is great, but I find it falls apart when you follow more than about 10 channels <willwh> cyphermox: really? I'm in 27 across 3 servers <willwh> and it's just fine here :] <willwh> I guess depends on how you display channels etc <wmat> cyphermox: falls apart how? Similar to willwh, I'm in 18 channels across 4 servers and love irssi + screen. <willwh> http://quadpoint.org/articles/irssi <- this puppy gets so much traction <willwh> it really is a nice way to set it all up though :] <cyphermox> really, then my setup must be crap <willwh> I'd say so :) <willwh> without seeing it <willwh> one sec I'll show you a screenshot of mine <cyphermox> heh, looks like the guide pretty much already lists what I had set up <willwh> ah <cyphermox> maybe I'm just lazy, I like the 0-9 shortcuts but at some point you got too many channels for that no? <willwh> yeah it goes onward to letters <wmat> cyphermox: 11->19 == q->o <willwh> 20+ = a bit craxzy <willwh> enough ways to window switch though <willwh> and split windows / etc <willwh> argh phone <cyphermox> willwh, yeah, I got the 11-19, but I have more windows open when you count the 4 networks and some 30 channels :/ <cyphermox> but I get what you mean, the names can be typed too <cyphermox> the annoying thing with xchat and all is that you can't stay connected ^.^ <willwh> yeah <willwh> well <willwh> you should check out quassel then :] <willwh> it's like screen & irssi functionality <willwh> with an xchat style QT interface <willwh> i.e. server / client <willwh> I used it for a while <willwh> but I <3 irssi too much <genii-around> the quassel package with current Natty crashes on me too much. I had to pull don the git version. But that seems to be stable for now. <genii-around> Weird. So that one just crashed on me now after not misbehaving for 4-5 days <BluesKaj> konversation is stable as a rock on natty <genii-around> Cool. <willwh> < gnome user :) <willwh> on the laptop anyway <willwh> my desktop rig is running (gasp!) Windows 7 <BluesKaj> rig ? , must be an audio geek too, willwh <willwh> nae, just heard the term a lot <willwh> and it works :> <BluesKaj> well, for audio I aleays thought it was a silly word ,made it sound industrial. like firing up my krell amp ...exaggerating the power and size of the system <BluesKaj> audio geek BS in other words :) * dscassel is back from lunch. <staticsafe> wb dscassel <dscassel> Hey, komputes <staticsafe> Irssi 0.8.14 (20090728) - http://irssi.org/ <staticsafe> hmm <komputes> Hey dscassel , just read your response to the Unity thread. <komputes> dscassel: I was just wondering, where did you see that Xubuntu was an officially supported derivative? <staticsafe> dscassel: got some responses from TLUG about the Ubuntu Hour <dscassel> komputes: Isn't it one of the official *buntus? <dscassel> Looking... <dscassel> staticsafe: Anything positive? :) <dscassel> I could be wrong. It happens sometimes... <staticsafe> dscassel: a guys named Sammy said he has been talking to you <dscassel> ...Sammy... <dscassel> Oh yeah, the Free Geek Toronto guy! <dscassel> Yeah, cool. <komputes> dscassel: I believe that other than Ubuntu, derivatives are community-supported. I was just wondering if what you mentioned is published anywhere. <komputes> if not, thats ok <dscassel> The last Ubuntu-uk podcast had the list of official *buntus as a trivia question... <dscassel> Of course, the distinction between "official" and "supported" is probably more important and better understood by the people actually providing said support.. :) <genii-around> Weird. I was just over at FreeGeek on Sunday working on a small clustering project. <staticsafe> damn, the FreeGeek place seems to be a little far from here in Scarborough <genii-around> staticsafe: Yeah it's near Dundas and Steeles <cyphermox> komputes, you're kind of right but at the same time Xubuntu and Kubuntu are special (like ubuntustudio, ubuntu-server, mythbuntu...), in the way that they have official daily builds, and milestone testing... whereas other spins do not (e.g. lubuntu doesn't have dailies yet, gobuntu no longer does...) <cyphermox> ^ and they all have the same plumbing layer, or almost the same, which means the core OS is supported, even if part of the UI isn't <komputes> cyphermox: good point, I could see how dailies would make people perceive that they are fully supported <cyphermox> furthermore, I'm under the impression that most of these things are under main <cyphermox> what's in main is Canonical supported, no? <cyphermox> I know edubuntu is a special case because it does not, but xubuntu would mostly like in main, I think <cyphermox> and I find myself being totally wrong <cyphermox> http://paste.ubuntu.com/581262/ -- thunar, the default file manager in xubuntu, is in universe. so is xubuntu-default-settings <genii-around> Hm. I wonder if I can scoop the decorative penguin here at work without someone noticing <willwh> genii-around: pixx pls <genii-around> I'll have to use my laptop cam, the phone one is busted <genii-around> willwh: http://imagebin.org/143402 <hypatia> that is a serious penguin <genii-around> Hehe, yes <dscassel> cyphermox, komputes: is ubuntu-qc doing anything for global jam? <genii-around> hypatia: There are some others around, but not with feathers like this one. They use em here for Christmas decorations <komputes> dscassel: we discussed it and it will probably take place at SupInfo, a private tech school near McGill <willwh> uhhh <willwh> genii-around: haha - I am not quite sure what to say <willwh> I love penguins, don't get me wrong <willwh> but that one, is a little creepy :) <willwh> creepy, yet, the more I look at it, the more awesome it is <willwh> haha :) <genii-around> Hangon. I'll get the two other "cute" ones :) <cyphermox> dscassel, yup, just waiting for the confirmation from the supinfo people that we're okay for the rooms, and I'll announce it <cyphermox> this time I haven't made a call for people who were interested in helping organize this because I don't have time :/ <cyphermox> but hopefully we'll have enough interest for some good bug finding -> bug fixing -> upload process going on <genii-around> OK, got em. http://imagebin.org/143405 and http://imagebin.org/143407 <genii-around> They're pretty dusty from being down here in the basement :( <genii-around> willwh: I do like the feathery one best <dscassel> cyphermox: Cool, drop a note here when you make the announcment. <dscassel> I want to get something up on the ubuntu-ca.org site about it soon. <cyphermox> dscassel, yup, good plan. I'd probably need to fetch whomever updates the ubuntu-qc.org site too ;) <capmtripps> hey all <staticsafe> hey capmtripps <capmtripps> so, whats new with ubuntu? <capmtripps> i got 10.10 and didnt really find much difference with 10.04 (my first intall #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-17 <[thor]> capmtripps: major changes will come in 11.04 <[thor]> tubeneck: including a major shift in your panel/window interface <BluesKaj> Howdy folks * genii-around makes some coffee * hypatia makes tea <genii-around> Apparently I'm getting my hair dyed green during lunch. <hypatia> yay <IdleOne> Good morning <IdleOne> is it Let's get stupid drunk and fall down day again? <BluesKaj> yeah it's st patrick's day , one more excuse to get hammered :) <BluesKaj> genii-around, stay away from "lunch" <genii-around> IdleOne: Apparently :) I'm getting told now that my nails will also be painted green and that i will be kidnapped after work and forced to drink green beer <BluesKaj> genii-around, as long as "they pay"...who cares? :) <IdleOne> I hope these threats are being made to you by someone who you wish was going to do this to you anyway <genii-around> IdleOne: Heh, yes :) <IdleOne> have fun, be careful, protect yourself at all times :) <IdleOne> Note to self: Self do not go out tonight. Remember the last time you "celebrated" St Patrick's day. <Amgine_> <selects an interesting and time-involving task to avoid much of the Irish-conquered world for the day> * dscassel is wearing his usual blue jeans and black t-shirt and is a bit of a party-pooper. * BluesKaj doesn't celebrate st paddy's day , even tho most irish have viking ancestry:) <Amgine_> Will be testing netbook ubuntu; Client is looking at using cheap netbooks as a survey platform for portable web-based surveys. Anyone have suggestions for OS/hardware? Basically, something to run a web browser. <BluesKaj> cheap netbooks , that's an oxymoron , the equivalent priced laptops have many more features and newer HW <Amgine_> $219 <BluesKaj> Amgine_, I hate to say this , but that sounds like the new dev chrome OS might be a fit <BluesKaj> Amgine_, where , got a url ? <Amgine_> eeew... but you may be right. <genii-around> Well, lunchtime. See you guys later. <Amgine_> NCIX, if I buy all 100 of them there. <BluesKaj> ok a multi-item discount <Amgine_> Acer Aspire One, D255E. Normally $229. <Amgine_> (I think N455) <Amgine_> Almost as cheap as my scientific calculator way back when... <BluesKaj> Amgine_, amazon.com ..will they sell you directly without using amazon.ca where the price is 100bucks more ...this is the ripoff I'm referring to. <Amgine_> Urgh! yes... Why do corporations tend to think we're all stupid? <BluesKaj> well the canadian dollar is sto=ill 67cents in their currency exchange price lists <BluesKaj> err still <Amgine_> <snorts> Was at a bookstore the other day, sticker over the barcode priced $22.95, under the sticker Canadian price $16.95, US price $13.95 <Amgine_> The book was *printed in Canada*. <Amgine_> I hate book publishers... <BluesKaj> so how are you gonna get around the canadian price for those netbooks , Amgine_ ? <Amgine_> NCIX in Canada, if I can convince the client to buy 'em. <Amgine_> They, btw, will sell the netbooks without Windows. <Amgine_> okay, netbook ubuntu test flash drive installed, time to try it. <Amgine_> BluesKaj: Everything seems to work as planned. Now, how do I disable the very pretty Unity interface, and start FF in kiosk on startup? <BluesKaj> sorry Amgine_ , I'm not a gnome fan/user , strictly kde here <BluesKaj> Amgine_, the guys at #ubuntu can probly help <Amgine_> <nods> Thanks BluesKaj! <genii-around> â© It's not easy being green â© < me hums > <bregma> so, is it a lime green, and atomic green, or more of a viridian? <genii-around> Sort of an astro-turf green :) <genii-around> The fingernail polish might be more of a neon or lime green I guess #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-18 <cyphermox> good evening * genii-around sips <dscassel> I could murder a cuppa. * genii-around slides dscassel a large mug of strong coffee * dscassel sips <wmat> the Tim Horton's in the building I work in is handy <genii-around> I have to walk about a block either east or west to find one here <wmat> sadly, today is my last day <wmat> well, sadly in that I'll miss the coffee shop #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-19 <hakimsheriff> Hi guys <hakimsheriff> anyone here? #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-20 <dscassel> On a Saturday afternoon?

Now I'm hungry for blueberry pancakes <bregma> ah, yes, fluffy white buttermilk pancakes swimming in syrup <bregma> I'm off to collect more sap, my buckets are overflowing <dscassel> genii-around: I buy the cake. * dscassel is lazy <dscassel> But I get a friend to do the custom decorating. :D <dscassel> BobJonkman brings the devilled eggs. :D <genii-around> Cool. Last year my friend's kid made the cupcakes, I made the coffee ... My gf is promising to make the cupcakes this year <wmat> dscassel: you're in K/W, no? <dscassel> wmat: Yeah, I am. <dscassel> Have you been out to any of the Ubuntu Waterloo things? Jams or parties? #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-23 <TUTOtip> bonjour <TUTOtip> quelle langue devons nous parler ici ? anglais ou franÃ§ais svp. mes indications sont bi-linguistes <genii-around> TUTOtip: #ubuntu-qc <TUTOtip> je travaille sur une machine ubuntu1010 Ã distance. Mais je rencontre deux soucis : l'un concerne ma souris : le clic-droit est impossible Ã distance. ProblÃ¨me deux virtualbox = meme souci avec en plus non reconnaissance de ma clÃ© usb. Je travaille avec U1010. Merci de votre aide <TUTOtip> sorry <genii-around> TUTOtip: Is OK :) <TUTOtip> my translate : I work on a remote machine ubuntu1010. But I see two concerns: one for my mouse: right-click is not remote. VirtualBox = problem two even more concern with not recognizing my usb key. I work with U1010. Thank you for your help <genii-around> TUTOtip: In here is mostly not for technical support. You will usually find more assistance in the main #ubuntu channel if the question is put in english <dscassel> TUTOtip: I'm busy with work or I'd try to dig into it. <dscassel> We're kind of lousy for support. genii-around's right, #ubuntu is good if you can take the amount of traffic. <dscassel> #ubuntu-fr is usually pretty busy too, if you're more comfortable in French. <dscassel> Sorry. :) <TUTOtip> no problem and ty <TUTOtip> good night <genii-around> dscassel: My french is abysmal :( Also I don't use virtualbox <wmat> dscassel: did I answer your question yesterday? Anyway, if not, the answer is that no, I haven't been out to anything in K/W yet but hope to soon. <dscassel> wmat: Well, there are a few coming up. :) <wmat> dscassel: link? <dscassel> http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ca :) <wmat> cool, thanks <genii-around> Bleh.

I'm going to be late for the Kitchener Ubuntu Hour (again). Should make it there by about 12:15pm, EDT at the Little Bean Coffee Bar <genii-around> BobJonkman: Toronto was an icy mess this morning <BobJonkman> And the sad thing is, normally I don't drive anywhere, I'm a bus-transit guy. But today my son had to go to Conestoga College, so I ended up in the exact icy-road-mess for which I take transit to avoid <BobJonkman> (what a grammatical-sentence-mess !) <genii-around> :) * genii-around makes more coffee <genii-around> dscassel: Where did the Ubuntu Canada/Uubuntu/Kubuntu pins shown on the LoCo page come from? <dscassel> genii-around: I made them. :D <dscassel> I'm running out, too. I need to make some more soon. <genii-around> dscassel: Could I pay you for some and shipping for before April 30 sometime? <dscassel> Sure. Provided I can swing it with the guy who owns the button maker. :) <dscassel> If you've got a 1in button maker and a colour printer, you can make them yourself with this: http://ubuntuone.com/p/jIE/ <genii-around> Interesting <MagicFab> http://identi.ca/notice/68074367 #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-25 * genii-around sips <bregma> dark roast or what? <genii-around> bregma: Timmies that I made at work a little stronger than they make it at the store :) <bregma> ugh, pencil shavings <bregma> I'm not a fan of Timmies roast <bregma> now a nice medium-roast Costa Rican brewed strong enough... <genii-around> When I can afford, I get Jamaican Blue Mountain in the beans. <bregma> gah, every day brings a new crisis at work <genii-around> bregma: Yup. Same thing here today. <dscassel> Well, at least C-32 is dead. <genii-around> Since we already pay the stupid piracy tax on recordable media, i should hope so #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-26 <wmat> morning <dscassel> Morning, wmat <hakimsheriff> Hi all #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-27 <dscassel> hakimsheriff: 'evening. <KombuchaKip> https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Oil_reserves_in_Libya #ubuntu-ca 2011-03-29 <KombuchaKip> Hey guys.

You haven't been around <BobJonkman> I have to go to Toronto on Sunday -- care to have an impromptu Ubuntu Hour there? <genii-around> BobJonkman: I have a huge construction project on the go in the building next door, will be busy until April or so, except for Fridays. <genii-around> BobJonkman: Sunday is actually a really good day for that, because we have usually some people hanging out in the FreeNet office all day and tinkering <BobJonkman> That <BobJonkman> That sounds like it's good for you. Work is better than no work <genii-around> BobJonkman: Yeah but these 70-100 hour work weeks are grinding me down.
