20:00 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Good evening.
20:01 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> tritium: good evening
20:02 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Hi, deinerson1.
20:03 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Hello
20:03 -!- kenneth_ [~quassel@c-174-50-72-184.hsd1.nm.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-us-nm
20:05 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Looks like we have an agenda!  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewMexicoTeam/March_23_2010
20:05 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> deinerson1 is taking good care of our wiki!
20:08 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Good evening, rlopez121.  Nice to meet you.
20:08 #ubuntu-us-nm: < rlopez121> hello tritium. just hangin out
20:08 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> rlopez121: welcome
20:09 #ubuntu-us-nm: < rlopez121> protonchris: thanks
20:09 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Yes, welcome!
20:11 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> rlopez121: How did you find our IRC channel?
20:12 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> What else can you tell us about yourself?
20:12 #ubuntu-us-nm: < rlopez121> I've been using Ub. for almostt a year now, live in ABQ. Thought I'd try to get more involved. If anyone was at the Karmic pizza party, i was the one with the Tool shirt and the red laptop
20:13 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> I remember you.
20:13 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Ah, yes.  I do remember you.
20:13 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> rlopez121: We are planning a lucid release party.  We haven't decided on a location yet.
20:14 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> hey folkseseses
20:15 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> hi, mneptok
20:15 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Should we start the meeting?
20:15 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> i have to go in ~10m for dinner
20:15 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Yes, protonchris, can you start with the web page update?
20:15 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> but i wanted to give an update on the Focus Ink project.
20:16 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Let mneptok go first.
20:16 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> I'm being called away.  Excuse me for a minute.
20:18 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> this is fairly straightforward. Nancy at Focus Ink has agreed to let us build a NAS box for her. we'll get an Ubuntu LoCo team banner (and maybe business cards) out of it.
20:18 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> mneptok: do we have a budget?
20:19 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> the necessary parts have been spec'ed and ordered. they should arrive this week at Focus Ink.
20:19 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> protonchris: Nancy ordered the stuff herself, with my recommendations on parts.
20:19 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Cool.
20:19 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> (all of it from Newegg)
20:19 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> we still need to decide FreeNAS or OpenFiler

20:20 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> and build the box that will house the system
20:20 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Sounds good.
20:20 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> protonchris / tritium: closer to the weekend, let's plan a time in the near future to handle those 2 tasks above
20:21 #ubuntu-us-nm:  * |mando| waves around frantically
20:21 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> |mando|: yessss?
20:21 #ubuntu-us-nm: < |mando|> :) Hi!
20:21 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> mneptok: sounds good.
20:21 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> mneptok: sounds good.  Thanks for the update.
20:22 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> The floor recognizes |mando|
20:22 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> np. thanks for volunteering to help!
20:22 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> now the question is ...
20:22 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> 6x2 banner or 9x3? :)
20:22 #ubuntu-us-nm:  * mneptok skedaddles off for dinner
20:23 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> 9x3 + business cards!
20:23 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> standard folding table is 6ft
20:23 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> The table at the gun show was 8
20:23 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> ft
20:23 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> so a 9ft banner means every even we have to have 2 tables connected
20:23 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Yes, but ours go to 11.
20:23 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> tritium: a little *too* much perspective.
20:24 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> OK, enough obsure Tap jokes. elf needs food, badly.
20:24 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> I vote for the 6ft
20:24 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> 6ft + business cards would be my vote.
20:24 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> mneptok++
20:24 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> ennyhoo, that's for the entire team to decide.
20:24 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> business cards with QR codes
20:24 #ubuntu-us-nm: < mneptok> *poof*
20:25 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> QR codes would be nice, with the website URL.
20:25 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Yeah, I liked kenneth_'s business card.
20:26 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> I agree.
20:27 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Ok.  I can give an update on the nm.ubuntu-us.org website
20:27 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Currently, we have drupal up and running, but openid is not.
20:28 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> launchpad requires openid with https and the version of php on out hosting was not compiled with ssl support.
20:28 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> out -> our
20:28 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> I'll be happy to upload my glabel tamplate for my business card
20:29 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> I have pleaded our case and I am currently waiting to hear back from the hosting admin.
20:29 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Since we do not pay for the hosting, I am not holding my breath.
20:30 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> I will keep the group updated.
20:30 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> that is all.
20:31 #ubuntu-us-nm:  * protonchris passes the floor to deinerson1
20:32 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> I have a brief update on EPC's older PC's and 9.10 versus 10.04 (beta1)
20:32 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> Most of the pc's we have here use really old intel based video cards
20:33 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> and I have narrowed those down to an intermittent ability to login
20:33 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> So, Karmic 9.10 is not practical, however...
20:34 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> I have been testing 10.04 beta1 on them and it works just fine, which is a good sign
20:34 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Wow.  Surprising
20:34 #ubuntu-us-nm: < |mando|> Oh awesome.
20:35 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> yes, 10.04 beta1 has installed on two machines with no problems - everything working
20:35 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> deinerson1: In your opinion, how many machines in the EPC computer lab run 10.04 well?
20:35 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> 2 different machines, so far
20:35 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> run -> will run
20:36 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> one IBM and one resident dell inspirion 2200
20:37 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> the laptop is a residents...i'll be installing it slowly on one of each model of the library pc's
20:37 -!- rlopez121 [~rbacon@gw-nat.cnm.edu] has left #ubuntu-us-nm ["Leaving."]
20:37 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> deinerson1: Ah.  Let us know if you need help and we could come by for a meetup/lucid upgrade.
20:38 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> certainly, there are 3 different models in the library, but it is looking good so far
20:38 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Very nice.
20:38 #ubuntu-us-nm: < |mando|> +1 on the offer for help
20:38 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> that's all i have - lucid lynx is looking really awesome
20:39 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Yes, please let us know.  We were planning on helping with the upgrade anyway.
20:40 #ubuntu-us-nm:  * nick125 is still having some odd issues with Lucid
20:40 #ubuntu-us-nm: < deinerson1> I'll be keeping 1 of each of the models up-to-date and will give updates if I run into any troubles, then come april or may we can have the upgrade day for the library
20:40 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> OK, sounds good, deinerson1.
20:40 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> deinerson1: sounds good.
20:40 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> EPC is still my suggestion for the location of our next release party, as well.
20:41 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> I have been running Lucid for a couple of days.  I had a few ubuntu one issues, but today's updates fixed my problems.
20:42 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Have you purchased music already?
20:42 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> I bought a song this evening and it worked just fine.
20:43 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Nice.
20:45 #ubuntu-us-nm: < protonchris> Any other business?
20:45 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> None here.
20:49 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> just one
20:50 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> I may of angered the Ubuntu gods by asking for another 100 ubuntu disks
20:50 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> kenneth_: what do you mean?
20:50 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Did you ask for free CDs, or order some?
20:51 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> "Demand for Ubuntu CDs is very high, and we're trying to ensure that we have enough CDs for those who really need one. We've noticed that you've already received CDs of several previous Ubuntu releases. You can help us ensure the continued availability of Ubuntu CDs by "
20:51 -!- You have been marked as being away
20:51 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Who do they mean by "you"?
20:52 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> hopefully this means that the 50 ubuntu disks and 50 kubuntu disks still going to be sent
20:54 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> kenneth_: "you" = kenneth_, or "you" = the LoCo?
20:54 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> me kenneth
20:54 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Hmm, interesting.
20:55 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> that leaves about 100 ubuntu disks short for the gun show
20:55 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> Speaking of LoCo CDs, 10.04 discs are still not yet available for order: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingCds
20:55 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> I will order them as soon as that status changes.
20:55 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> When is the next gun show again?
20:55 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> May 1 and 2
20:56 #ubuntu-us-nm: < tritium> OK
20:57 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> the previous disks ship in 4 to 6 weeks
21:00 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> if two people can order 50 disk each hopefully that make up the difference
21:00 -!- You are no longer marked as being away
21:00 -!- Irssi: No new messages in awaylog
21:01 #ubuntu-us-nm: < kenneth_> or I can buy a box of 100
