[15:09] <CIA-4> net-retriever: cjwatson * r370 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.27ubuntu1
[17:53] <cr3> how can I have my own udeb installed in the d-i and ubiquity environments? I could probably wget in the early_command but my udeb happens to be architecture specific
[18:07] <cr3> since this is for a network install, maybe I can drop the architecture specific udeb on the http server and probably mess with initrd accordingly
[18:07]  * cr3 feels dirty
[19:15] <cr3> éexit
[23:42] <CIA-4> ubiquity: superm1 * r4474 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/frontend/gtk_ui.py):
[23:42] <CIA-4> ubiquity: Don't start plugininstall if the user presses back on the last page in
[23:42] <CIA-4> ubiquity: oem-config.
[23:43] <CIA-4> ubiquity: superm1 * r4475 ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_ui.py: and apply that to KDE frontend too.


[02:00] <ChinnoDog> Why is atheros wifi so crappy on my laptop?  It would not work right even with the latest kernel and backports drivers to connect to my local AP even though Android and Windows devices have no problems.
[02:16] <waltman> ...and people wonder why I have a Mac... :)
[02:16]  * waltman ducks
[02:20] <pleia2> ChinnoDog: "crappy" and "doesn't work right"? :P you should know better
[02:21] <pleia2> might have more luck searching for the actal symptoms (is it slow? does it have poor range? does it drop your connection?)
[02:22] <waltman> does it drink all your milk and leave the empty carton in the refrigerator?
[02:22] <pleia2> I don't own any systems with atheros chipsets myself, but between askubuntu.com and ubuntuforums.org a TON of hardware is covered and if you search for the problem and chipset there are often answers
[02:23] <waltman> I just renewed my ACM and IEEE memberships tonight. I'm feeling a LOT poorer :(
[02:23] <pleia2> waltman: oof, I bet
[02:23] <waltman> The ACM isn't so bad, but the bare minimum IEEE membership is $193/year
[02:24] <pleia2> yeah, I haven't done ieee
[02:24] <waltman> I dropped the IEEE Computer Society this year since it's mainly a source of annoying emails
[02:25] <waltman> ACM is a much better match for my interests, but my lab tends to target IEEE conferences and journals
[02:25] <pleia2> ah
[02:26] <waltman> Also the ACM doesn't send me 2-3 emails a week about crap (sorry!) like inviting me to a seminar on "ROCK STARS OF 3D PRINTING!!!1!"
[02:26] <pleia2> nah, they just want you to participate in the ACM member interest survey :)
[02:27] <waltman> I just did that when I renewed. I checked about half the boxes :)
[02:30] <waltman> Last night I made my hotel reservations for YAPC in Salt Lake City. I missed the early bird special by one day (grrr) and the rooms are $169/night. And this used to be a cheap conference...
[02:31] <waltman> The emails they sent out said "For the early bird discount, reservations must be made prior to March 1". Meaning the actual deadline was February 28.
[02:34] <pleia2> technically right, but human brains don't read deadlines like that
[02:39] <waltman> I know, right? If you have a deadline, say the deadline. Don't say 1 days after the deadline.
[03:00] <ChinnoDog> pleia2: I already have. I have spent days on the problem and looked up every symptom and marginally related symptom. It connects but loses packets and errors until it times out and loses its connection.
[04:19] <ChinnoDog> I upgraded drivers, manipulated driver parameters, manually configured everything.
