@Seth No, the California public school system horrifies me.

user139252

@Seth I am going to ask it on main site

jrg

@HeatherBrown public school system in general horrifies me.

I found a bug in the latest Go revision.

Behavior clearly contradicts documentation. Therefore it is a bug.

@edwardtorvalds I don't know, what's the script?

@kos it is supposed to echo when it either suspends or resumes

@edwardtorvalds This one?

@edwardtorvalds The one you posted earlier: askubuntu.com/questions/346824/…

@kos instead of:
DISPLAY=:0.0 su USER -c '/usr/bin/synclient TouchpaOff=0' ;;
can I put:
xinput set-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Device Enabled" 0

@ParanoidPanda this one is edited

@edwardtorvalds I think so. However the typo was in TouchpaOff=0, obviously it should be TouchpadOff=0

user136984

8:15 PM

Probably... :D

@kos if you will see my original script, I am testing it

I cant find any file named suspend.txt in my home dir

Woot - bug was confirmed.

@edwardtorvalds This one?

user136984

@Nathan: Hoot!

@kos :'( which one?

8:19 PM

@ParanoidPanda Are you "Paranoid Owl" now?

@NathanOsman hehe

user136984

:D

@edwardtorvalds Click on the arrow before the message in my previous message

@kos oh yes

I really should overclock this Pi...

8:21 PM

@NathanOsman what are you using your pi for? I use it as backup server

I have an RPi model B I'm using for compiling ARM packages and powering my Christmas light display (I've connected a relay to the GPIO pins). I've also got an RPi 2 I use as an APT cache and website monitor.

APT cache?

@edwardtorvalds Sounds like that should work (you misspelled "suspended" by the way)

@kos really? I am echoing that

@edwardtorvalds The other machines download package updates from the Pi which fetches them from a local mirror.

They are cached so that they only need to be fetched once.

8:24 PM

@NathanOsman do you have more than one machine that needs updates?

I have at least four machines here with Ubuntu installed.

then you need it :)

That doesn't include embedded devices or virtual machines or chroots :P

hehe

@NathanOsman tell me or give me a link, how did you do that?

@edwardtorvalds It's actually really easy to setup. Just install squid-deb-proxy on the Pi and then squid-deb-proxy-client on each machine.

Everything else should be automatic.

8:25 PM

thanks

@NathanOsman and of course I have to configure the IPs

You might have to tweak the configuration a bit if you need to mirror PPAs and stuff as well.

@edwardtorvalds Nope - it uses avahi (mDNS) to discover the server.

No need to configure anything network related.

@NathanOsman I am talking about how my laptop will know that PI is running cache server on lan?

Yup.

Whenever the laptop needs a package, it sends an mDNS query for the address of the Pi, which it then uses to connect.

@NathanOsman it wont download packages in advance right? but just the ones that are requested by other computer right?

@edwardtorvalds Correct.

8:27 PM

ok

@NathanOsman but we can setup a server that can do opposite right?

bye people o/
