User1: User5 Correct, particularly since your key has a passphrase as well.
User2: (2010-02-09 05:42:51) User1 someone tell Takyoji to visit http://ubuntu-minnesota.org/openid later.
User1: User2 yeah...turns out that doesn't help him until I configure the mail server properly - whoops
User3: any of you particularly fantastic at openoffice?
User4: direct responses at me if you are :)
User5: What would you need help with?
User5: Otherwise I'd be willing to try to find the solution.
User4: User5 well, I don't know if it's even a problem. I built the newest OO.o (3.1.1) from the downloaded debs and it looked great.
User4: but then I started it and it said it had problems with the JRE. It doesn't show the message again and it appears to be working fine
User5: ahh
User5: Sidenote: Anyone know how to port forward from a VirtualBox VM? (I know it's possible, I've done it before)
User4: User5 sorry, no clue
User4: User5 do you think there's anything wrong with my OO.o?
User5: I wouldn't really be able to say. I'm not very Java-oriented
User4: User5 fair enough :)
User5: Note: Testing in a VM is much more stable.
User5: I was doing a benchmark and the numbers come out more stable when I'm doing a benchmark in a stripped down VM
User5: I feel pathetic that, as a Linux user, I don't entirely remember all the necessary parameters for extracting an archive by heart xP
User4: User5 really? xvzf if it's a gz, xvjf if it's bz
User4: you've been in a gui too long lol
User5: ahh
User5: Been quite a while since I've done any PHP..
 * Takyoji wonders if tonyyarusso has done anything of the mailserver yet
User6: hey folks, how's it going?
User5: Average, normal, and unexciting. :P
User5: Woo, more fun http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2010/02/microsoft-warns-of-tslssl-flaw-in-windows.ars
User6: vimperator is awesome
User5: heh, interesting
User5: Firefox addon, yes?
User5: Anyone ever do any GUI-based development?
User6: Takyoji, yes, a firefox addon. And yes, I've done some stuff in Python with Gtk
User5: Because I'd be curious of doing pretty much exactly that; but am a little unfamiliar with how to build dialogs and so on; since it seems that they use relative sizing rather than fixed
User6: Right, that takes a bit of getting used to. I came from VB, so WxWidgets and Gtk were both a bit different for me
User6: Once you start thinking about your UI windows in terms of rows/columns it starts to be pretty natural
User5: Yea, that's just all I really need to understand
User5: based upon my observations
User6: You can check out launchpad.net/~taskstacker for a very simple UI example, I wrote it as an exersise in Gnome app development
User6: err, that's not the right URL
User5: tasktracker, or?
User6: https://launchpad.net/taskstacker
User6: It's a really really stupid task list program I wrote
User5: ahh
User6: For practice with Gtk, Gnome, Bazaar, Launchpad, etc
User5: ahh
User5: And then I take it, and revolutionize it, then it becomes the next most popular application. :P
User6: Oddly, it somehow ended up in some free software directory
User6: Some editor actualy took the time to download it, install it, and take a screenshot of it
User5: heh interesting
User6: Yeah, not more than a day after I uploaded the first release tarball I got an email that it was accepted into some software directory
User5: heh
User5: No deb package? :o
User6: Actually there is, in my ppa
User5: Anyone else agree that it's kind of a step back that the Ubuntu Software Centre doesn't have checkboxes to check off what software you want installed?
User7: yes.
User5: But at the same time a person could of course use the Synaptic Package Manager
User5: I'm curious on how they intend to merge the two..
User1: User5 oh god yes - it takes forever to install more than one thing...
User5: Start a petition then over the annoyance? :P
User5: It should be voiced in some fashion though
User6: Ubuntu's Brainstorm?
User6: Heh I submitted an idea to brainstorm a while back, and now I can't even remember what it was
User7: Ever since 9.04, Ubuntu has gone downhill.
User7: Ubuntu One, Software Center, the Ubuntu "Vista" is 9.10, mono, and grub2
User5: I haven't had much issue with GRUB2
User7: sucks compared to v1
User5: In what aspect though?
User5: Configuration, or?
User1: It lacks some config options, but those will be back soon enough.
User1: hey Takyoji, I think the mailing is working again - *now* trying sending yourself a new password :)
User7: just how messy it is underneath the hood compared to grub 1. It's a personal preferences thing.
User5: GDM has also been a step back as well (in terms of customization)
User5: ahh
User1: also, tell me what address it comes from...
User7: yeah, not too hip on GDM 3 either.
User7: If this keeps up, I may have to dump Ubuntu and go to Debian or Gentoo.
User5: heidijohnston@example.net
User5: But over all, it's all new technologies; over time they should be properly refined
User1: yay!
User1: now let me know if you can log in :)
User5: Yes, from a temporary link
User1: good, good
User5: however I can't modify what OpenID identities are related with my account, nor the account password
 * Takyoji pokes tonyyarusso
 * tonyyarusso needs screenshots
User1: aww, when did our heading get uncentered?
User5: Since the edit
User5: It's a general 'unauthorized' Drupal error
 * tonyyarusso has a theory
User1: User5 still logged in?
User5: Yes
User1: 'k
User5: /user/me/openid
User5: Now I'm able to access it
User1: ho ho
User1: Apparently the 'me' aliases module has some quirks.
User5: and successfully added
User5: ahh
User1: someone added a negative margin on it for some reason
User5: Awkward
User5: I'll be leaving for the night
User5: Ahh yes, such luxury. Login to my desktop over FreeNX and make it Suspend. Then access ny DAAP share on another system to listen to song I haven't heard in a while. All while I'm laying in bed lazily.
User7: ame This is worth a download: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/914191/Computer-Hardware-High-Resolution-24w-x-34h.png
 * Obsidian1723 This is worth a download: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/914191/Computer-Hardware-High-Resolution-24w-x-34h.png
User6: I used to have that printed out at work for identifying all the random junk laying around
User7: good stuff .. I have tons of things like that.
User2: why does it have 168 pin memory twice?
User6: Wow firefox didn't handle that well at all
User2: mine did
User6: Looked like it had 168 pin and then 168 pin PC100, for some reason
User5: Any thoughts on the "We're Linux" contest again?
User5: Seems we only have one individual claiming to be away.
User5: I wonder how many others here actually read the contents of this channel, or just still have it set to auto-join without really much acknowledgement. :P
User1: Actually, I believe everyone in here has spoken in the last two weeks (with the exception of ChanServ, locobot_5, ubot3, and ubuntulog of course)
User4: Takyoji, I'm here
User4: sorry, I don't know what that is.
User4: so I wasn't going to jump in and waste some more time lol
User5: I wasn't implying it in terms of being annoyed, I was just implying that I don't notice some users mentioning anything is all
User4: ah, fair enough
User5: User4 http://video.linuxfoundation.org/contest/we-are-linux-superbowl-ad-contest
User4: lol
User4: that's expensive
User5: I realized the same. :P
User5: But I have a feeling if someone does make a commercial that just makes us weep in the beauty of it; there might be a couple of companies that might fund such together; who knows. :P
User4: fair enough
User5: Now come on folks, let's make that video!
User5: :P
User4: ...
