@ParanoidPanda you've done something wrong because i've isntalled toxic and i do have the man page. Aside from that, I am 100% sure the $HOME/.config/tox/toxic_profile.tox file is what you actually want

Let me know if you want me to post that as answer

user136984

@Serg: I installed it by adding the PPA and then with sudo apt-get install toxic, how did you install it?

user136984

And yeah, if you are sure that that's the file I need to import into other clients, then post that as an answer. :)

cl-netbox

@ParanoidPanda Hello Panda of the pandas ! :) What is the advantage of toxic compared to qtox ?

user136984

@cl-netbox: When I first saw that I thought it read "Hello Panda of planets"! :D

user136984

@cl-netbox: It's the Tox CLI client, so if I am using a machine with no GUI then it is useful. :)

cl-netbox

12:12 PM

@ParanoidPanda would be correct ... somehow ... as well ! :D

user136984

:D

cl-netbox

@ParanoidPanda Thank you for explanation. :)

Serg

@ParanoidPanda exactly the same way, I followed instructions in the wiki . . .

user136984

@Serg: Hmm... Strange, maybe they changed something... So when you run man toxic it gives you its manpage?

Serg

@ParanoidPanda yup, it does . . .and it doesn't mention the export profile thing , so you didn't miss alot :)

I was on Werewolf by the way, @ParanoidPanda what's your version ?

maybe the forgot to include man page for your version ?

@cl-netbox hi

@Serg They should give some privilege to silver badge owners (e.g. a close vote weights the double). A lot, currently 370.

@kos It's not a question, it's a statement. Yes, I was saying - I bought one. It works. I wanted someone to tell me a while ago so there was no risk. I bit the bullet, and I got lucky.

If it took giving one to Canonical to get it on "the list" I'ld buy it myself to send to them.

But you may expect longer downtimes from now on, as I've got a full-time internship currently, so I'm usually busy Monday-Friday...

@NathanOsman My confusion is how I would update the projects folder in a way that they aren't all sharing one and losing their files with other people's.

user139252

Right now, the updateprojs script is basically a for loop with cp -a in it.

user139252

If common areas are shared, wouldn't that mean that they would have to make their own subfolders for their projects?

@fossfreedom Ah I didn't know Lubuntu came also with OpenBox. That sounds perfect, thanks!

@HeatherBrown so it's forwarding all of the IP traffic, not just port forwarding?

And you have an extra IP to do that?

Q: Is Ubuntu Core mature enough for commercial production?

Our company is considering the use of Ubuntu Core for an IoT product build with the Beaglebone Black. I am trying to figure out how mature Snappy is, so that we don't attempt to go down a development road that is not yet ready for primetime. Could anyone confirm if companies are using Ubuntu Cor...

@HeatherBrown not exactly. Docker uses "layers" - each layer can add or remove files from the previous one, so your first layer would be the OS and Python interpreter and the second layer would be your project files. Then each user has a directory on the host that is mounted as the user's home directory in the container.

Q: Ubuntu live USB won't start without CSM enabled

I copied files from the ubuntu-15.10-desktop-amd64.iso to a FAT32 formated USB drive. When I boot on the USB and select Try Ubuntu without installing the startup get stuck at a black screen with the message Ignoring BGRT: invalid status 0 (expected 1). This happens when I have CSM disabled on my ...

@HeatherBrown that way you can update the OS and the project files for all users without affecting their home directory.

You can even put limits on CPU and memory usage for each instance.

@Serg: I figured out that you just take your profile_toxic.tox file and then use toxic -f path/to/profile_toxic.tox to import it back into Toxic if you want to. Would you like to post it as an answer or shall I? :)

@ParanoidPanda if you don't need my extra upvote, you can certainly post that answer yourself >:)

@Serg: I really don't mind any more, I've got 10k+ rep now so I really don't mind... But if you want to post the answer do so within the next 10 minutes, if you don't post it within that time I will (just because I figured it out partly thanks to your help and I don't want to leave it unanswered).

@NathanOsman Neat-o! I will try to get that going over the weekend.

user139252

In the meantime, I'm totally doing this

user136984

@Serg: Maybe that came out wrong, but I'm basically just more cool about rep now. And what I meant is that now we've got the answer please do post an answer some time within this day or so, as I don't like leaving answered questions unanswered. :)

@HeatherBrown they allready did the command line version, but there was also a leeked image of them working on the whole deal - someone on the inside really didn't like automatic syncing though...

user139252

I don't see why... automatic syncing makes sense

@ParanoidPanda writing answer right now . It's alright :) I don't like posting answers which i didn't figure out myself at least up to 90% . I am not all about rep either :)

user139252

And if they have the command line version, you could easily write a script and save it as a Cronjob

Mateo

yeah...

I think that was one argument for not doing the full consumer desktop version...

I did just that on the pi once

Serg

And done

The world doesn't appreciate Linux enough. Maybe there ought to be a distro that just rips off sky-high prices for their OS, spies on the users, and has so much malware . . .maybe then commercial companies will be like "Hmm, maybe we should develop our apps for that distro too"

@Mateo I don't really like them ribbing on Epic for UT3 not coming out for linux now that the entirety of UE4 is open source and freely available...

Q: Ubuntu ethernet connection works for few seconds then drops (with Win 7 dual boot)

I'm running dual boot with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 15.10 and although the Ethernet connection works on Windows, when I boot Ubuntu it works for a few seconds and then the connection drops. I don't get any notification saying...
