=-= Topic for #ubuntu-us-nm was set by tritium on Sat 31 Jan 2009 01:24:56 PM MST === #ubuntu-us-nm https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewMexicoTeam <tritium> Hi, deinerson1. <deinerson1> hello, tritium :) <tritium> How is everyone this evening? <genfool> Hi all, fine here....hope all is the same :) <tritium> Doign ok here. I'm just quite tired. <tritium> Doing* <genfool> :) is like that <genfool> any more thoughts on the gun & knife show? <kenneth_> working on it, <deinerson1> I would like to take on the privilege of updating the NewMexicoTeam wiki site. I have noticed it could use a current pair of willing hands. Not sure how the approval process works, but am certainly willing to learn. <nick125> deinerson1: What approval process? <tritium> deinerson1: there's no formal approval process <tritium> (or informal, for that matter) <nick125> Just don't do anything that makes a big change. <deinerson1> gotcha - I am thinking mainly of just adding current events, IRC mtgs, that sort of thing <tritium> Wow, thanks, deinerson1. <nick125> deinerson1: In honestly, just do it. <protonchris> Hello. Sorry I am late. <tritium> Hi, protonchris. <kenneth_> the only problem is i don't have feb 13 off <protonchris> deinerson1: Go for it. <deinerson1> I will start experimenting - I am fairly good with wiki's. <tritium> That's awesome. <protonchris> deinerson1: and don't worry if something gets screwed up, we can always go back to a earlier revision ;) <deinerson1> ok, will do. <protonchris> The gun & knife show is over Valentine's Day. Hilarious. <protonchris> Now I know what the wife and I are going to do. <protonchris> Any business tonight? <tritium> No agenda items. <tritium> firefox sure is having fun crashing every few minutes tonight <genfool> ff working fine here 3.5.6 <tritium> genfool: let me know how 3.6.7 does for you <tritium> 3.5.7, rather <genfool> lol <tritium> You've not installed the security update, it would appear. <tritium> kenneth_: I got my Chumby One yesterday. <genfool> sooo, Eeb. 13 is on a Saturday.....Is any one else interested in obtaining a table and hanging out....handing out disc ??? I will get the update when it gets in portage :P <tritium> genfool: ah, I had assumed you were running ubuntu 9.10 ;) <genfool> I refuse grub2 <protonchris> Well gents, I am going to cut out of here early. I am dog tired. Have a good night. <tritium> I'm rather tired myself. <deinerson1> good night, prontochris <tritium> genfool: how come? <deinerson1> it gives your pc grubs :) I have an older friend who got karmic and every time he asks for help he says his pc has grubs. It cracks me up. <tritium> haha <genfool> I believe grub2 will be replaced with the original...on next release. I can wait <nick125> That seems like a silly decision. <genfool> I just do not want to deal with the uuid # manually setting up my existing drives <tritium> Why would you have to do that? <nick125> Grub2 is much better than Grub. <genfool> you guys are going to make me try it ..... <tritium> Ubuntu has been using UUIDs for several releases now, even before switching to grub2. <genfool> genkernel has, for that matter. I have a mixture of kernels not using uuid and a couple using uuid grub handles them well grub2 I will be putting it all back together. If ubuntu 9.10 is the only one using grub2 as default and will drop it ???? <tritium> I don't understand your question, genfool. <genfool> I think grub2 for me is a bad idea, will create hours of work understanding how it works and how to modify.. And ubuntu on the next release, will drop grub2 never was a question. <nick125> genfool: Where does it say that Ubuntu will drop grub2? <tritium> I've not encountered that rumor anywhere. <genfool> Busted :( I have only heard that, because of all the issues on the ubuntu forums. That it was posted there.... I do not have a link....I still am not ready for grub2 till I have to.....BOYCOT GRUB2! FTW! <genfool> or not :) <nick125> I highly doubt they would drop a superior solution (Grub2) for something that's....inferior (Grub). <tritium> Interesting. What kind of issues are people having with grub2? <deinerson1> no trouble here after I learned how to do in it what I could in the older version <fgleich> what the heck is causing all those dings and dongs on this machine ? <fgleich> hi guys, btw <deinerson1> hi <genfool> Using grub, I do not have any. You can check the forums for grub issues...see what comes up. <fgleich> go back to lilo <genfool> Hey fgleich <fgleich> hey genfool <genfool> fgleich, remembers lilo? <nick125> I suspect that most grub2 issues are likely not because of grub2, but rather configuration issues. <fgleich> all of a sudden my machine started going 'ding dong ding ding !' <fgleich> <----lilo king <fgleich> <----lilo king extraordinaire <fgleich> It's dingy, I tell you !!! <deinerson1> okay, gotta go...Bootz (my dog) is demanding to go outside. Good night all
