[01:20] <Bashing-om> TJ-: IRT tachyondecay dmesg - line 277 " Calgary: Unable to locate Rio Grande table in EBDA - bailing!" .. I see this a lot . What is the significance ?
[01:31] <TJ-> It's an IOMMU in some Intel chipsets, used in IBM x series
[01:33] <Bashing-om> TJ-: K; then "bailing!" is nothing to be upset about .
[01:35] <TJ-> correct, it's built-in and is just looking for the tables that define the IOMMU. doesn't find them, so 'bails' out - doesn't stay in memory
[05:35] <daftykins> nn all! \o
[06:21] <lotuspsychje> good morning to all

[11:58] <lordievader> Good afternoon.
[12:00] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
=== popey_ is now known as popey
[18:39] <EriC^^> daftykins: o/
[18:41] <daftykins> hello there, how're we all doing today? :)
[18:41] <OerHeks> are we ready for the weekend madness?
[18:42] <daftykins> never!
[18:42] <EriC^^> daftykins: good good, yourself?
[18:42] <EriC^^> let the madness begin!
[18:42] <daftykins> but we'll stumble through :) very friendly customer just then i see
[18:42] <daftykins> yes thanks, just picked up a nice new jacket today, so i'm all set for winter now :)
[18:43] <daftykins> still some time to wait to get the new LCD for that LG Nexus 5 phone i'm fixing up, i love fixing things :)
[18:43] <EriC^^> awesome
[18:43] <daftykins> i don't think you were here when i was linking that?
[18:43] <EriC^^> nope
[18:43] <EriC^^> do link
[18:43] <daftykins> http://techblo.gg/stuff/n5.jpeg
[18:44] <daftykins> a friend has had it for months at home sat doing nothing, with the hugely smashed screen
[18:44] <EriC^^> ouch
[18:44] <daftykins> http://techblo.gg/stuff/n5-2.jpg
[18:46] <EriC^^> wow it's pretty banged up
[18:46] <OerHeks> kept in backpocket on a bicycle?
[18:48] <daftykins> nah, he's an aircraft engineer, had to keep it on him when working alone in a hangar away from the company offices. For some reason he did a job lying down with it in his back pocket, so that caused a first smash to the glass upper left; but then he kept using it
[18:48] <daftykins> essentially he was skating around on top of it, full body weight >_<
[18:49] <daftykins> but £26 from Hong Kong on ebay for a new full screen, glass, digitiser and front case portion - a brief component swap and it should be back in business :D
[18:49] <daftykins> i've got a Nexus 4 so i may even switch to using it myself
[18:51] <EriC^^> it's very slim
[18:52] <EriC^^> how does it not have buttons on the front though? it's in the lcd itself?
[18:52] <EriC^^> like you slide to unlock then you get buttons at the bottom to navigate and stuff?
[18:53] <daftykins> yep, soft buttons as they call 'em now
[18:53] <daftykins> means that they can change icon to change purpose and be hidden during fullscreen content playback etc
[18:56] <EriC^^> oh, cool
[20:41] <Yaiyan> First thing I do after a new install is to open Firefox, download Chrome and replace Firefox with Chrome everywhere :l
[20:41] <daftykins> ok
[20:41] <Yaiyan> Once that's done I can start playing with Ubuntu-Chrome =)
[20:42] <daftykins> you were wholly wrong about the unit discussion by the way, i'd appreciate if you didn't tread all over my assistance in future
[20:42] <Yaiyan> ok
[20:52] <OerHeks> daf noelia does not understand thatwifi speed is something different than cable, 30 mb sounds not bad to me.. how do we find out it is not 30mbit ?
[20:55] <OerHeks> nvm ..
[20:56] <daftykins> i had hoped an answer on that would be forthcoming, but i think given it's this problematic realtek adapter and heavily out of date, we've got to wait for that first :)
[22:03] <daftykins> note to self, STOP trying to help 3 people at once
[22:03] <daftykins> only confusion can result :)
[22:09] <Bashing-om> daftykins: Uh Huh ^ .. problem such as that is compounded working a couple of forums ( while waiting ) . There are those times when I too stress myself out .
[22:10] <daftykins> oh the pace of forums must make it 10x worse too, having to re-read before progressing?
[22:11] <Bashing-om> Yeah, not (RE-)reading has bitten me bad a time or 2 . And then tunnel vision is my worse fault .
[22:14] <Bashing-om> Looks like I am about caught up.. will try and lessen your load daftykins .
[22:14] <daftykins> thanks :) which user do you fancy taking?
[22:15] <daftykins> BottomNotch seems to have tried to install xfce and now gets 'low graphics mode' on boot
[22:15] <daftykins> then "ich_" i think has heavily modified an install already to try and get it working and left it useless
[22:17] <Bashing-om> I thouhgt you had both of those under control . Awaiting them to get the systems up-2-date.
[22:19] <daftykins> looks like one has a system that won't comply and the other one is offline when at a TTY so can't fix >_<
[22:22] <OerHeks> Some considder that as trolling, keeping volunteers buzzy by not telling all important info, as a merry-go-round
[22:22] <OerHeks> for days now ..
[22:25] <Bashing-om> Our crystal balls have cracks, we do not see clearly .
[22:26] <daftykins> :( always odd when they keep the key component to the end
[22:26] <OerHeks> All power i need, is to realise i don't have to give support allone ;-) and be able to walk away
[22:26] <OerHeks> but it surely is misty sometimes
[22:27] <daftykins> that guy with the killer wireless, i remember they weren't supported not long ago - wonder if it's changed yet
[22:27] <daftykins> i think the ath10k driver for a specific atheros model was still in development
[22:28] <daftykins> i'm gonna keep my hands off that one though :D
[22:35] <OerHeks> hmm i notice a lot of www.askubuntu-com.pw in google, not an official ubuntu site, is it?
[22:36] <daftykins> not seen that one
[23:47] <Ben64> $ whois www.askubuntu-com.pw
[23:47] <Ben64> DOMAIN NOT FOUND
[23:59] <daftykins> i don't understand why my chown command in channel didn't work for others but works fine for me
