<tigrmesh> TiMiDo: i was too <Python3> Or SystemRescueCD. <gtmanfred> what is the ncurses partitioner in archiso? <TiMiDo> man I’m lost <goldtoast> ok is there any easy way to sudo as user? it says i need to be added to the sudoers file but then when i add i am already there <TiMiDo> i lost it, <TiMiDo> ;P <Python3> Archboot has «parted». <gtmanfred> Python3: does parted have the ncurses gui? <Python3> gtmanfred: ‘Tis the one with the CLI. <gtmanfred> TiMiDo: just follow the beginners guide <gtmanfred> Python3: thought so… what was the ncurses one? <Python3> gtmanfred: There is «cfdisk». <myname> there is one with a simple menu <gtmanfred> TiMiDo: use cfdisk <gtmanfred> Python3: that is it <nathan28> goldtoast: did you visudo? <Python3> You won’t be able to do stuff like non-destructie ops on it, though, but if you’re going to kill Ubuntu, anyway, then that’s all you need. 
<gtmanfred> TiMiDo: read the wiki, and when it is time to fix your partitions use cfdisk <Python3> s/tie/tive/ <nathan28> goldtoast: add yourself to the “wheel” group (# gpassword -a user) <TiMiDo> ok <TiMiDo> thank you <gtmanfred> !give TiMiDo wiki beginners guide <phrik> TiMiDo: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners‘_Guide <nathan28> goldtoast: then uncomment the %wheel ALL line <xhazk> Pretty odd… “SigLevel = Never” still enforces key checking. Have been unable to deactivate. Guess I will have to use the old 2011 iso after all. <TiMiDo> ty <Python3> xhazk: You sure? <goldtoast> ill try that nathan28 thank you <myname> xhazk: it doesn’t <ak5> Python3: looks cool, thanks <nathan28> goldtoast: gpasswd, not gpassword <gtmanfred> xhazk: … what? it does disable, you must have something wrong, please past your pacman.conf <nathan28> i need to go to sleep <gtmanfred> *paste <Python3> xhazk: You have to comment out the ones for the repos, too. <goldtoast> nathan28: i dont have gpassword <nathan28> yeah, b/c i can’t type for crap <nathan28> you have gpasswd <xhazk> Python3: 100%. I tried 4 different releng versions. Im in a fresh install off a live USB using stock pacman.conf. SigLevel = Never is already set in the stock .conf, and per-repo SigLevel is already commented o<goldtoast> nathan28: thats it <goldtoast> nathan28: cool <daedhel> hm <gtmanfred> xhazk: past your pacman.conf <gtmanfred> !give xhazk sprunge <phrik> xhazk: Description: http://sprunge.us Usage: Im very familiar with Arch installs, and can tell you without a shadow of doubt it’s the stock pacman.conf <myname> xhazk: i had no key and siglevel = never worked <gtmanfred> xhazk: … <gtmanfred> pacman-key –init? <gtmanfred> xhazk: just post it… <myname> it can’t force checking <xhazk> Eh, Ill fix it myself and report back. 99% of the time this is faster than doing the IRC boogy anyway. <Python3> xhazk: https://github.com/Wintervenom/Configs/blob/master/system/pacman/pacman.conf <phrik> Title: system/pacman/pacman.conf at master from Wintervenom/Configs – GitHub (at github.com) * myname smells cum hoc ergo propter hoc <gtmanfred> /bin/sh: sprunge: command not found <gtmanfred> cat: write error: Broken pipe <falconindy> since when do cats have pipes? <falconindy> WHAT SORT OF STRANGE MECHANICAL CREATURE ARE YOUR HARBORING? <daedhel> just installed with archboot, can’t “pacman -Syu”, because of mtab. I then “mv /etc/mtab /etc/mtab-” and redo “pacman -Syu”, and here is the error I get : pastie.org/private/agcbd77veh05lrqikjf8a <daedhel> halp <Tom^> falconindy longcats <nathan28> falconindy: my cats enjoy marijuana smoke <nathan28> so they’d appreciate pipes i think <Python3> daedhel: Disable «CheckSpace». <daedhel> Python3: where ? <Python3> «/etc/pacman.conf» <falconindy> or, you know, do what the news item said to do <gtmanfred> !give deadhel mtab <phrik> deadhel: http://www.archlinux.org/news/filesystem-upgrade-manual-intervention-required/ <falconindy> backing up mtab is a dumb idea <nathan28> deadhel: you’ll break an install from the old img if you don’t follow the directions exactly <daedhel> awesome <gtmanfred> daedhel: read the news when you update… <daedhel> hm <nathan28> don’t do a pacman -Syu on the 08.2011 image w/out fixing mtab <daedhel> how do you read that from the console <nathan28> links <nathan28> elinks <nathan28> lynx <gtmanfred> w3m <nathan28> w3m <myname> w3m <gtmanfred> w3m <Tom^> or check news before issuing -Syu if you havent updated in a while * Python3 breaks the combo and rolls with «elinks». <daedhel> ha <daedhel> website <daedhel> hm <nathan28> or install surfraw <daedhel> i never did that in a couple of years <xhazk> There we go. Had never noticed, but installer creates a /tmp/pacman.conf isntead of using the one in etc of live boot environment. For purposes of installing, need to add SigLevel = Never manually to this to by<daedhel> might be time to start <nathan28> and set up w3m/links/elinks in the config <xhazk> This should probably be addressed. <benhamill> daedhel: pacmatic (pacman front-end) also will display news to you before it checks for updates. <daedhel> oh <benhamill> It’s not supre pretty, but it’s right there when you’re doing it. <daedhel> interesting <nathan28> benhamill: nice, didn’t know that <daedhel> but I use packer <myname> xhazk: you see, siglevel = never doesn’t get ignored <gtmanfred> daedhel: well then you can’t use pacmatic can you? <benhamill> Yeah. It does that and shoves pacnew files in your face. Helps you not miss stuff. <benhamill> daedhel: I use packer, but almost always with the –auronly option on. <nathan28> pacman shoves pacnew info in your face <xhazk> myname: Right, but in order to disable it during an install, one must manually edit the /tmp/pacman.conf. My sense is that this shoudl probably be reconsidered by the relevant devs. <xhazk> Or symlink that to etc/pacman.conf during install. <sudokode> what’s going on in here <nathan28> sudokode: madness <nathan28> cats smoking marijuana, pacman yelling at people about stuff <sudokode> xhazk: patches welcome <nathan28> cats with pipes i mean <benhamill> nathan28: It tells you about them. pacmatic goes one-by-one and offers to fire the new and old up in a diff program so you can edit them and then deletes the pacnew when you’re done. <gtmanfred> !catfail <phrik> http://i.imgur.com/8nyMf.gif <nathan28> benhamill: i always just do it myself <nathan28> usually about two days later tho <benhamill> Yeah. I always would either not notice or get lazy about it. i like pacmatic to nag me. 
<sudokode> holy shit, it’s almost 2am <myname> change your time zone, problem solved <nathan28> sudokode: agreed <nathan28> myname: you’d risk using terrorist time zones then <xhazk> sudokode: Perfect time to crack open a warm ale methinks <nathan28> or infringing on astrology program IP claims <myname> 8 am here, no terrorism involved <sudokode> xhazk: more like time for a warm bed * sudokode turns on electric blanket <gtmanfred> sudokode: started compiling something? <sudokode> lol compiling <nathan28> yeah, with the CPU under the covers for warmth <xhazk> Fuuuu… no talk of compiling. I just came from a 3 month Gentoo stint. Arch is looking beautiful. <nathan28> lol ports <nathan28> i almost use them <Tom^> y u reinstall so often >.< <xhazk> Stable systems are for girls. <nathan28> xhazk: or intel users, really depends on your perspective <rymate1234> lol <n0yd> spark666, ping <nathan28> amd/ati laptops are FTW <gtmanfred> xhazk: my girlfriend uses arch now… and i don’t even have to tell her to read the news either <nathan28> gtmanfred: you made that up <gtmanfred> i just removed 30 gigs from my windows partition to mess around with other distros this weekend… I think friday I am doing mint, then depending on how long that goes…. i am going to try gentoo after <myname> wait, arch isn’t stable? <n0yd> lol <gtmanfred> nathan28: actually no… i had to help her for the first month… but now she does most of it on her own… <myname> gtmanfred: mint 
<xhazk> gtmanfred: You have done what so few can then! Most women get pulled in by Ubuntu in my experience <nathan28> pics or it didn’t happen <nathan28> goodnight fellow archtards <gtmanfred> nathan28: she is not in the city right now… when I see here this weekend i will get you a picture <ahungry> Your girlfriend is using arch? Don’t most people type with both hands? * ahungry rimshot <gtmanfred> ahungry: yeah, but 2 people can’t type on the same keyboard at the same time unless they are being hacked <xhazk> gtmanfred: Now just talk her into getting the arch logo tattood on her bum and Ill buy you a beer <n0yd> hmm, my openbox shortcuts dont all work, i added a new one and it does nothing. I had edited one before that was listed in conky, it works fine. And this one is in conky also <sudokode> ahungry: palma and her five sisters <sudokode> he’s a busy man <n0yd> im consfused <gtmanfred> only way she would use arch was if I installed gdm <benhamill> Wow. How had I never heard of Mint before? <sudokode> oh shit <sudokode> what is n0yd doing here <myname> benhamill: because it sucks <n0yd> sudokode, i had nightmares of ur shitty site in my sleeo <n0yd> it woke me <benhamill> myname: Like… objectively in a stability sense or in a subjective “it is not Arch” kind of way? I am prepared to agree with either one. <xhazk> Mint is just a rehash of Ubuntu, in the same sense that Lubuntu or Xubuntu are. Just my opinion. <ahungry> isn’t mint just ubuntu with pre-installed apps? <sudokode> n0yd: lol <sudokode> it’s getting betterish <n0yd> im going back to bed now…. <sudokode> slowly <sudokode> good, gtfo <n0yd> gnight <gtmanfred> http://sudokode.net/ nice <phrik> Title: Index of / (at sudokode.net) <n0yd> !gtdo <sudokode> lol <sudokode> gtmanfred: he doesn’t mean that <n0yd> !gtfo <phrik> http://arch.har-ikkje.net/gfx/gtfo2.png <xhazk> Oh hey, nice site. *fires up the botnet* <sudokode> goddamnit mrelendig <sudokode> him and his stupid anime factoids <gtmanfred> i remember it on sopa black out day <sudokode> xhazk: old skool script kiddy huh <sudokode> haha oh yeah <myname> it was like “yeah let’s make another wallbuntu” and then cried about people calling it wallbuntu making worthless buggy stuff like it’s own updater. after whining about ubuntu changing too much they changed to<xhazk> sudokode: I just watched “hackers.” Talk about script kiddys lol! <sudokode> weird, I was watching hackers 2 <sudokode> way better movie ofc <gtmanfred> myname: tl; dr <sudokode> same <TiMiDo> lol myname <sudokode> I assume he’s talking about having relations with goats <xhazk> sudokode: Ill have to check it out. Everytime I see a hacker movie where the “hackers” have a GUI i die a little inside <gtmanfred> sudokode: i liked the hacker guy in sneakers… i think he was blind… <myname> sudokode: if you use mint, you’ll immediatly have that <sudokode> mint? <sudokode> slow down sir <gtmanfred> !wiki compare <sudokode> altoids are the shit <phrik> gtmanfred: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Compared_to_Other_Distributions <sudokode> the curiously strong mint <gtmanfred> mentos the freshmaker <sudokode> have you seen that new mentos commercial <sudokode> it’s awesome <gtmanfred> nope… <sudokode> <myname> if they’d call it “mintberry crunch” i would’ve supported it just because of his name <phrik> Title: Mentos Rainbow Commercial – The Spider – YouTube (at www.youtube.com) <gtmanfred> oh, i saw that <sudokode> heh * TiMiDo is thinking of moving to Archlinux as soon as possible,, <gtmanfred> !give TiMiDo beginners <phrik> TiMiDo: Read this! All of it, twice! Your answer is probably here! http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners%27_Guide <TiMiDo> gtmanfred, lol I’m using arch in virtualbox <Tom^> stop think TiMiDo <TiMiDo> before installing it <Tom^> !give TiMiDo nije <Tom^> !give TiMiDo nike <phrik> TiMiDo: just do it man <sudokode> we don’t like beginners <TiMiDo> thank you Tom^ <xhazk> Archers are xenophobic <TiMiDo> LoL I’ve been using Debian/FreeBsd all the way. <gtmanfred> sudokode: we don’t like beginners that don’t like to read… dj_my_soul… <Tom^> xhazkophobic <ahungry> haha dj <gtmanfred> hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia <benhamill> Does anyone here use Gnome 3? I am curious about (considered) opinions. <gtmanfred> benhamill: ioni uses gdm… <xhazk> not tiley enough for me <gtmanfred> xhazk: dwm! <sudokode> benhamill: it sucks <gtmanfred> sudokode: what do you use again? i think i just asked yo… * benhamill uses Awesome. Tried Gnome 3 for about a day before I really knew about Awesome. I couldn’t stand the ephemeral, only-in-a-straight-line workspace idea. <gtmanfred> btw… i just learned macros in vim… holy crap… <xhazk> benhamill: Does your config break every other update? 
<benhamill> Wondering if there are things folks like about it compared to Gnome 2. <ahungry> yea vim rocks <benhamill> xhazk: My Awesome config? Nope. <benhamill> ahungry: +1! <sudokode> i3 <ahungry> my WM went compiz to openbox to ratpoison to dwm <brotatos> i3 or xmonad :3 <ahungry> ratpoison is pretty awesome but not as crisp as dwm <gtmanfred> sudokode: do you use urxvt? <myname> benhamill: i know a bunch of people which never used gnome2 and like gnome3 <xhazk> Im an xmonad fan but not big on haskell tbh. <sudokode> yes <gtmanfred> sudokode: with transparency? <sudokode> ofc not <gtmanfred> cause it’s broken? <sudokode> cause I don’t like transparency <ahungry> I use urxvt with the pseudo transparency as my background is a picture of my son which makes it 100x awesome <gtmanfred> oh… well i think true transparency is broken in i3… <Tom^> gtmanfred its not broken it works just fine for me <benhamill> xhazk: Biggest “issue” I’ve had with Awesome is that I updated, uhm… some dependency and forgot to check the AUR for updates, so my older version of Awesome was incompatible. Easily solvable. <xhazk> sudokode: Withotu transparency, how does one see the half-nude Jessica Alba wallpaper behind the terminal? Blasphemer… <ahungry> basically a dark background and I put his cut out image on top of it, so it works good since all my text is on the left and pic on right <worxed> goood morning <ahungry> xhazk: haha <gtmanfred> Tom^: true transparency? so that you could see a window behind it and not just the wall paper? <sudokode> jessica alba looks like a retarded giraffe <sudokode> srsly, the whole internets and you pick jessica alba <ahungry> my setup is dwm, urxvt, tmux (elinks/mutt/irssi), and vimprobable2 for gui browser <Tom^> gtmanfred yes <myname> what does “window behind another window” mean? :p <gtmanfred> ahungry: nice me too, but i use luakit <gtmanfred> Tom^: … screenshot? <sudokode> you prolly coulda googled retarded giraffes and found better looking chicks than jessica alba <diegoviola> i like transparency… in some girl clothes <Tom^> gtmanfred its on my netbook cba to boot it up <worxed> composite? <diegoviola> sorry <sudokode> http://images.cheezburger.com/completestore/2009/8/15/128948741822298108.jpg <gtmanfred> worxed: yeah… urxvt composite in i3 <xhazk> sudokode: Lol, well if I really thought about it I wouldnt say her.
