@Mahesh with latestStable bugs, you should always check to see if its fixed in currentDev
 
wait... only ubuntu-mono works.
all others fail.
 
mhm
Source Package: ubuntu-mono (0.0.40)
the package to file against is ubuntu-mono
the other packages are just dependencies
(for building)
 
so we don't have multiple, I think this one has a new purpose. I'll see how it goes for a while
 
@Mahesh so file the bug against that, but make sure a dupe hasnt been posted
 
@LordofTime ok. I'm not clear may be. If I select humanity icon theme, i have a problem. with ubuntu-mono dark, everything is fine.
 
4:02 PM
@Mahesh ah, one moment then (you werent clear)
 
:)

Q: Why Tag synonymizing need so much rep?

pl1nkWhy do you need so much reputation in order to propose Tag synonyms?

 
that's the closest thing i can find to file against
but i'm not huge on the artwork fixes, i focus on the server packages more, normally
 
ok. looks good
hey, but cog and volume control missing are bad.
 
maybe :P
but meh
 
4:04 PM
and iirc, we had a question or two with the complaints

How do you get this grep prettyprint? Source reveals nothing...
 
@izx Its auto syntax highlighting
 
hmm, can I delete a chat room I made
 
@mateo_salta Nope
Hello all BTW :D
 
izx
Oh OK, it doesn't display it in preview. Where do I find how and what markdown will highlight?
 
@AmithKK good luck! :)
 
4:12 PM
ah, ok
 
@Mahesh thanks
@izx I works now :D
 
@izx I think it's JS.
 
izx
@lgarzo Thanks, it does look like it from the HTML source :)
 
jrg
it's tagged bash, which means it gets google code prettify
 
izx
@jrg Aha -- then I shall soon have a bash tag-badge, since is very often also
 
4:17 PM
@jrg :D
 
@izx be careful, sometimes i use command-line if i use ZSH or CSH or KSH or others
 
izx
@LordofTime Only the Qs I answer, so I'll do it only when justified...but thanks for the reminder.

Do we have a markdown sandbox on AU/SO/SE?
 
BBT
Good Night
 
@izx Yup.

Q: Formatting Sandbox

Ólafur WaageAs per Jeff's suggestion here in the comments. You can use this question as a formatting sandbox (if you can edit CW questions) and you can post answers if you want to test out formatting there as well. Beware that since the changes to syntax highlighting in December 2010, and the inline hints ...

@QuestionsFeed Miiiiiiiiinneeeee :P
 
4:39 PM
nvr mind, your gravatar has rotational symmetry
but then i noticed a few more..
 
That was default, and I didn't change anything
 
4:50 PM
@LordofTime boot time arguments we pass to grub are kernel arguments, right?
 
Can i get help in this question?
 
@Mahesh i think so
 
ok
 
5:18 PM
I wonder why VirtualBox's network adapter isn't showing up in the list of IPv4-capable network interfaces in NitroShare...
 
5:32 PM
Ah, never mind - I figured it out.
Yay! It is completely possible to use NitroShare in a virtual machine.
So now you don't need guest additions to share files.
(Note: for some funny reason, I'm getting a bunch of phantom alerts about PCs joining and leaving but you can disable those.)

Q: How to empty the pending queue of notifications?

George EdisonI have an application that went completely crazy and sent (it seems like) hundreds of notifications to the notification daemon. Now I've been getting notification bubbles for the last few minutes and it is getting annoying. How can I make them stop without logging off or rebooting?

Lol... as soon as I posted that, they stopped :P
 
5:49 PM
hi!
@GeorgeEdison lol
 
jrg
@GeorgeEdison try my answer.
 
so now i'm bored
 
6:05 PM
umm.. no lampp for 64 bit??
and whats the 32 bitcompatability library?
 
@RolandTaylor Hey, how's it going?
(I stepped away for a few minutes there.)
@jrg Thanks!
@LordofTime So now you can test NitroShare :)
 
@GeorgeEdison not really
still stuck without linux networking
is on a work computer that is Windows, with no admin
 
I pity you
 
I officially pity you too.
If you're going to get stuck on Windows, you at least need admin access.
 
6:21 PM
@GeorgeEdison I'm "just an intern"
how fortunate for me the second half of this internship is ITSec
so i need local admin anyways
 
Nice.
 
DOOM!!
 
@Mahesh lies.
 
Hey guys
Is this a pointless tag?
 
[REDACTED]
 
7:00 PM
[tag: helpfile]
 
you mean?
it looks semi pointless
hey @jrg @BrunoPereira did we ever blacklist 'help'?
 
pointless.
 
There are some questions just tagged with it and it is SOOOO undescriptive
 
cool! a sandbox for formatting... wonderful!
writes something that causes evil on it
 
The one gripe I have with Qt Creator is that I constantly have to rebuild because it gets source code dependencies mixed up.
 
7:14 PM
Still better than glade.
 
7:49 PM
Does my answer add value or clutter? If it's just clutter, I'll delete it:

Q: How to add vte terminal widget in GTK3?

int_uaI'm trying to add vte widget in my application and the examples I've found use .fork_command() to execute a command in that widget. But according to http://developer.gnome.org/vte/0.26/VteTerminal.html#vte-terminal-fork-command it was deprecated and it's recommended to use fork_command_full(). ...

@LordofTime so far we've had very little luck with blacklisting.

Yet another reason for me to not use Facebook!
sounds like a cookie to me.
 
@jrg worst idea ever...i think it's a way not to call it 'user fingerprinting scripts that may involve setting cookies in your browser cache, or saving profiling data server side'
 
jrg
@aking1012 Yeah.

8:59 PM
Guys, stop answering duplicates. Thanks.

If it was related to this one, I deleted the answer askubuntu.com/questions/155649/…
There was some discussion before I posted about how duplicate it was...probably not the one you were referring to, but...
 
9:24 PM
side-note: Intel being seemingly so pro-linux (when compared to some vendors), I wonder why their physics engine (Havok) is only available in free form for Windows x86?
 
9:45 PM
pretty empty for a monday in here
 
I think there was some burn-out from rant vote/edit stuffs yesterday
 
 
1 hour later…
