| RichEd | hi HedgeMage nixternal | 08:14 |
| nixternal | hiya RichEd! | 08:15 |
| RichEd | nixternal: did you see my message yesterday about the alleged hacker and my offer of possibly helping with a "supervised / mentored project" ? | 08:16 |
| nixternal | no i didn't | 08:16 |
| nixternal | i think Ubuntu Chicago helped him out a little bit, as it seems he will just get stuck with a suspension, and could possibly work it off his school background | 08:17 |
| RichEd | well give it some thought ... if you think it will help his situation ... either personally or with the authorities | 08:17 |
| HedgeMage | hi RichEd | 08:17 |
| nixternal | RichEd: i will definitely pass on your info, as you were actually a person I was looking forward for a response...but HedgeMage also had a good idea and we presented it as well...his acts weren't all that bad, of course he did something stupid being curious..but now the school knows the difference between hacking and cracking | 08:19 |
| HedgeMage | RichEd: I basically made the point that because Chicago public schools purposely slow down bright kids and allow them to learn less, he has no outlet and should be redirected to something productive like a FLOSS project | 08:20 |

| aladds | does that make sense? | 08:06 |
| sbalneav | Probably the best bet would be to set up network authentication via LDAP, and simply share the /home dir out via nfs. | 08:07 |
| lucasvo | aladds: that's not the purpose of ltsp. but ldap/nfs or samba are tools allowing this | 08:07 |
| aladds | aaaaaaaaaah | 08:07 |
| aladds | ok | 08:07 |
| sbalneav | That way, anyone can log in on any box, and get their home dir. | 08:07 |

| aladds | i didnt know that | 08:07 |

| cyberhell86 | really!!! :D pls pls explain me.. i'm gonna try the 'sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf' now.. to se if it works | 09:03 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: when you edit wvdial.conf, the phone number should usually be *99#, and the password and username must be equal to '' | 09:03 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: ok | 09:03 |
| cyberhell86 | but uhmm.. can i edit it if i'm running the ubuntu with the livecd? :S | 09:03 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: what's really cool is, the V360 supports EDGE, so if your network supports EDGE, it's about 4 times the speed than usual GPRS :) | 09:03 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: yes, you can edit it | 09:04 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: but your changes will be lost when you reboot | 09:04 |
| cyberhell86 | really.... my network supports edge.. :D i hope it gets faster... | 09:04 |
| cyberhell86 | ok.. i just wanna be sure.. to be able to make the dial up connection... then i will completely move from windows to ubuntu | 09:05 |
| cyberhell86 | my other question is the audio problem :S | 09:05 |
| === LaserJock [n=mantha@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| HedgeMage | cyberhell86: what problem are you having? | 09:07 |
| HedgeMage | no audio at all? | 09:07 |
| HedgeMage | (And if soo, what sound card/chipset is involved?) | 09:07 |
| cyberhell86 | uhmm.. good question... i got a gateway laptop :S 7330 gz :S | 09:09 |
| cyberhell86 | let me see fot eh audio chip.. give me a sec | 09:09 |
| cyberhell86 | i'm tryin to make the 'sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf' but i get command not found :S | 09:12 |
| cyberhell86 | :( | 09:13 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: I think wvdial might not be on the live cd :/ | 09:16 |
| cyberhell86 | shit! :S | 09:17 |
| cyberhell86 | ok.. then i'll try to fix it later... then can u tell me how to fix the sound problem.. cuz i don't have any audio at all :s | 09:18 |
| cyberhell86 | do u think i can instal ubuntun on a 3gb partition/ | 09:21 |
| cyberhell86 | ? | 09:21 |

| highvoltage | cyberhell86: yep, 3GB is enough | 09:25 |
| HedgeMage | cyberhell86: that is plenty of space | 09:25 |
| highvoltage | you won't have much space for data, but it's certainly enough space to play around in. | 09:25 |
| cyberhell86 | ok.. i'm gonna try..... | 09:25 |
| HedgeMage | cyberhell86: as long as you don't have tons of photos or other data | 09:25 |
| HedgeMage | yay :) | 09:25 |
| cyberhell86 | i'll us an external hd for data :D does linux reads fat32? | 09:26 |
| HedgeMage | cyberhell86: it can. | 09:26 |
| cyberhell86 | uff :D ok.... after installing it.. I just need to make the sudo 'wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf'? right? | 09:27 |
| LaserJock | hmm, are we still on for an edubuntu meeting today? | 09:29 |
| nixternal | hiya LaserJock | 09:30 |
| LaserJock | hi nixternal | 09:30 |
| nixternal | i just started setting up the Handbook svn...just committed a huge chunk, with the same dir structure we are used to with docs currently | 09:31 |
| LaserJock | nixternal: you're doing it in the Doc Team repo? | 09:32 |
| nixternal | ? fonts <- i cannot get this bugger to add | 09:32 |
| nixternal | no LaserJock, they have their own repo | 09:32 |
| nixternal | i don't know the entire situation with the ubuntu svn repo and the edubuntu handbook repo..they were kept seperate either for a reason, or it never got added to our repos | 09:33 |
| HedgeMage | We were supposed to start committing stuff from our repo to theirs so eventually more docteam members would have docteam repo commit access... | 09:33 |
| HedgeMage | ...but I put off doing that since our docbook was so totally borked it is emarrassing. | 09:34 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: once you've finished with the wvdialconf, you'll be able to dial up using the 'wvdial' command | 09:34 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: yes, edubuntu meeting is on agaik | 09:34 |
| highvoltage | RichEd won't be able to make it, he has sent apologies. | 09:35 |
| LaserJock | hmm | 09:35 |
| LaserJock | I'm not sure if I'll be there for all of it | 09:35 |
| LaserJock | my boss and I are making a little video of the lab today | 09:35 |
| LaserJock | as we are having a Chemistry Open House | 09:35 |
| === pygi [n=mario@83-131-91-78.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| highvoltage | I think it's basically going to be ogra giving a tech update. I don't think it's going to be a long or even complicated meeting. | 09:35 |
| pygi | hello everyone | 09:36 |
| cyberhell86 | how do i use it? :$ sorry i'm just a beginner :( | 09:36 |
| highvoltage | hello mr pygi | 09:36 |
| HedgeMage | hi pygi :) | 09:36 |
| LaserJock | we should start a list of "Specs we want to see" soon | 09:36 |
| pygi | ergh, /me doesn't like the sound of spec anymore :( | 09:36 |
| HedgeMage | cyberhell86: does it connect by USB? | 09:36 |
| highvoltage | cyberhell86: no problem. once you've edited wvdial.conf all you need to type is wvdial to dial up. when you're done with the connection, you press ctrl+c and it will hang up again | 09:36 |
| LaserJock | HedgeMage: don't worry about borked docbook, nobody will mind too much ;-) | 09:37 |
| HedgeMage | oh sorry thought you meant the hd | 09:37 |
| HedgeMage | LaserJock: nixternal is unborking it for us :) | 09:37 |
| cyberhell86 | yes it's an usb one... :D ok thanks | 09:37 |
| highvoltage | HedgeMage: most of the new Motorola phones have a standard USB port, that you use to charge the phone, use as a mass storage device, Internet, and for headsets / external speakers :) | 09:37 |
| highvoltage | it's quite cool. | 09:37 |
| nixternal | sorry | 09:41 |
| nixternal | i was responding to my angry blog readers ;) | 09:42 |
| nixternal | haha | 09:42 |
| HedgeMage | highvhehe | 09:42 |
| HedgeMage | grrr | 09:42 |
| HedgeMage | sorry, TT is "helping" me type :) | 09:42 |
| nixternal | jeesh...everything is going on right now | 09:43 |
| nixternal | hahaha..GO TT!!!! | 09:43 |
| nixternal | LaserJock: what is your view on the current Handbook and svn thing? If we move it to Ubuntu docs, you and I are the only ones with current access to the svn server | 09:44 |
| nixternal | however, if we keep it where it is currently, then we need to follow the ubuntu doc repo structure, just in case it moves | 09:45 |
| nixternal | im making myself all kinds of work ;) | 09:45 |
| HedgeMage | hehe | 09:48 |
| HedgeMage | nixternal: the hope is to eventually get it into the main doc repo | 09:48 |
| HedgeMage | nixternal: the current repo is a stopgap measure | 09:48 |
| nixternal | ok..then i need to do some structure tweaking..not much though | 09:48 |
| LaserJock | nixternal: I think we need to get it into the doc team repo | 09:49 |
| === nixternal puts on the brakes | ||
| sbalneav | There a meeting going on in #ubuntu-meeting? | 09:49 |
| nixternal | 10 minutes i believe sbalneav | 09:49 |
| LaserJock | at least so HedgeMage and pygi can become doc team members :-) | 09:49 |
| sbalneav | Coolio | 09:49 |
| nixternal | im not even a doc team member | 09:49 |
| nixternal | nobody wants me | 09:49 |
| pygi | sbalneav, ping? :) | 09:50 |
| LaserJock | nixternal: whatever, talk with mdke about that | 09:50 |
| nixternal | lol | 09:50 |
| sbalneav | pygi: pong | 09:50 |
| sbalneav | Saw your mail. | 09:50 |
| pygi | sbalneav, you got my mail? | 09:50 |
| pygi | oki :'( | 09:50 |

| ogra | fun, sorry | 10:03 |
| highvoltage | hehe | 10:03 |
| rodarvus | back | 10:03 |
| cbx33 | grahamldlw: yes, but you won;t get your data back ! | 10:03 |
| gnomefreak | ogra: did you ever get around to uploading the screensaver fix on webcollage and the other one (cant think of other one that was reported) | 10:04 |
| grahamldlw | damn! i had irreplacable information and pictures on there!, oook just as well i got my back up system sorted on this one now tho, i still need to get windows back on here somehow tho | 10:04 |
| cbx33 | grahamldlw: well.....it is easier to install windows first then ubuntu | 10:05 |
| grahamldlw | i gathered that but i changed the whole of the partitions system file type from ntfs to fat32 | 10:06 |
| cbx33 | you can't convert back | 10:06 |
| grahamldlw | cuz it wudent let me resize ntsf | 10:06 |
| cbx33 | oh | 10:07 |
| cbx33 | hmmm.... | 10:07 |
| cbx33 | I thought it did convert ntfs ok? | 10:07 |
| grahamldlw | thats why it came up with that error again and again | 10:07 |
| cbx33 | i mean resize | 10:07 |
| grahamldlw | no it dosent let u resize | 10:07 |
| grahamldlw | only shrink or grow | 10:07 |
| grahamldlw | but it says it wont let u resize or move | 10:07 |
| cbx33 | ah....well you can resize and ntfs partition | 10:08 |
| grahamldlw | theres a lil box u can get up which tells u which one can | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | using a utility called ntfsresize | 10:08 |
| grahamldlw | bit late.... | 10:08 |
| grahamldlw | u wernt on so i did it anyway | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | but that doesn't come by default cos it is a _little_ risky | 10:08 |
| grahamldlw | i told u i needed supervision | 10:08 |
| grahamldlw | this is the second time i broke my pc | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 10:09 |
| grahamldlw | at least i got 33.5gb of space for ubuntu atm lol | 10:09 |

| cbx33 | nice | 10:09 |
| grahamldlw | im gonna have to get windows back on it soon, any programs and stuff u think i shud get or anythin u think i shud do? | 10:09 |
| grahamldlw | considering this is a fresh ubuntu! barely even able to withstand on it's own yet | 10:09 |
| grahamldlw | dunno where the with came from but still... | 10:10 |
| cbx33 | grahamldlw: well.....as I said....you can install windows as the second OS | 10:13 |
| cbx33 | have you left any space for it? | 10:13 |
| grahamldlw | yeh i only took about 10 gb for ubuntu the rest is unassosiacted or however it's spelt | 10:15 |
| cbx33 | nice | 10:15 |
| grahamldlw | but still, what kinda programs and where wud i get them from for ubuntu, and it's also not letting me write stuff in on the terminal asks for a password | 10:15 |
| cbx33 | ?free? :p | 10:15 |
| grahamldlw | but i cant type it in | 10:15 |
| === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | you shouldbe able to type on a terminal | 10:17 |
| cbx33 | without having to put apassword in | 10:17 |
| grahamldlw | where do i put the password in? | 10:18 |
| grahamldlw | no | 10:18 |
| grahamldlw | i did that | 10:18 |
| grahamldlw | and it asked for a password | 10:18 |
| grahamldlw | grahamldlw@grahamldlw-desktop:~$ sudo apt-cache search flash | 10:18 |
| grahamldlw | Password: | 10:18 |
| cbx33 | ahh | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | when it says password type your password in | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | it is because you have put sudo in front | 10:19 |
| grahamldlw | which means? | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | for apt-cache you do not need to use sudo | 10:19 |
| grahamldlw | i thought i had to? | 10:19 |
| grahamldlw | ohhh | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | that can be run as normal user | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | do man sudo and read actually what it does | 10:19 |
| grahamldlw | isnt it for superuser or somethin tho? | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | yes | 10:20 |
| grahamldlw | what am i? im the only user! | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | so if you need to run a command as superuser....like install apps using apt-get...you need sudo infront | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | no there is always a superuser on the system | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | you never login as it directly | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | (well you can but i's not the way ubuntu works) | 10:20 |
| cbx33 | so you use sudo to ask permission to run the following command as root (superuser) | 10:21 |
| grahamldlw | oh and doing it without sudo dosent do anything, it just starts a new blank line | 10:21 |
| cbx33 | well if you try to run a command that needs superuser access withoutit......it will complain | 10:21 |
| cbx33 | do...apt-get install nmap | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | and see it will complain | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | then do sudo apt-get install nmap | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | and it will work | 10:22 |
| grahamldlw | it asks if im root | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | indeed... | 10:22 |
| grahamldlw | but if u do that cache thing without sudo infront it dosent acctually do anything | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | so you were trying to run it as a normal user | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | it should do... | 10:22 |
| grahamldlw | it just skips a line and dosent write anything | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | if it comes up with nothing | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | it means it found nothing | 10:22 |
| cbx33 | you want the flash plugins for firefox? | 10:23 |
| grahamldlw | it is apt-cache search etc? | 10:23 |
| grahamldlw | yeh, and the linux messenger for msn | 10:23 |
| cbx33 | well...you already have that ...GAIM is the msn messenger | 10:23 |
| cbx33 | it's in your menu already | 10:23 |
| grahamldlw | no not gaim, a different one | 10:24 |
| cbx33 | to get flash...just goto a site which has flash...like www.adobe.com...I think...and it will ask you to click to install...that works fine ;) | 10:24 |
| cbx33 | grahamldlw: AMSN? | 10:24 |
| grahamldlw | http://amsn.sourceforge.net/ | 10:24 |
| grahamldlw | yeh | 10:24 |
| cbx33 | sudo apt-get install amsn | 10:25 |
| cbx33 | if it fails I'll help you out...I'll know what's wrong | 10:25 |
| grahamldlw | grahamldlw@grahamldlw-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install amsn | 10:25 |
| grahamldlw | Password: | 10:25 |
| lucasvo | grahamldlw: your user password | 10:25 |
| grahamldlw | dosent let me type anything it | 10:25 |
| grahamldlw | in* | 10:26 |
| grahamldlw | Password: | 10:26 |
| lucasvo | grahamldlw: it does | 10:26 |
| grahamldlw | Sorry, try again. | 10:26 |
| lucasvo | but you don't see it | 10:26 |
| grahamldlw | i can type but nothing comes up on the screen | 10:26 |
| lucasvo | just type it and press enter | 10:26 |
| lucasvo | yes | 10:26 |
| grahamldlw | i can type fine before that line comes up | 10:26 |
| lucasvo | that's ok | 10:26 |
| lucasvo | it is normal that you don't see anything | 10:26 |
| grahamldlw | it did it | 10:26 |
| lucasvo | (security risk) | 10:26 |
| cbx33 | yeh...it doesn't echo your password to the screen | 10:27 |
| grahamldlw | but didnt acctually find what it was looking for anyway | 10:27 |
| grahamldlw | ok | 10:27 |
| cbx33 | we should put something prominant about that somewhere | 10:27 |
| grahamldlw | do i have to type it in everytime? | 10:27 |
| cbx33 | the numebr of times that question gets asked | 10:27 |
| cbx33 | not every time | 10:27 |
| cbx33 | it stores it for a while | 10:27 |
| grahamldlw | 15minutes? | 10:27 |
| cbx33 | not sure | 10:28 |
| cbx33 | but it forgets it agaoin.....security feature | 10:28 |
| grahamldlw | it cant find msn on that cache thing at all | 10:29 |
| cbx33 | ie if you left your machine...and someone else typed sudo....ARGH...they have admin access | 10:29 |
| cbx33 | grahamldlw: ok | 10:29 |
| cbx33 | I can tell you why | 10:29 |
| cbx33 | you don;t have the universe repos setup | 10:29 |
| cbx33 | basically.... | 10:29 |
| grahamldlw | which is? | 10:29 |
| cbx33 | the software you download is stored int these repos | 10:29 |
| grahamldlw | so how do i set them? | 10:29 |
| cbx33 | ok...goto | 10:30 |
| grahamldlw | noooo | 10:30 |
| cbx33 | Settings | 10:30 |
| grahamldlw | ok | 10:30 |
| cbx33 | no... | 10:30 |
| grahamldlw | this is alot harder then i anticipated | 10:30 |
| cbx33 | what's the third menu atthe top | 10:30 |
| grahamldlw | system? | 10:30 |
| grahamldlw | then it has preferences, admin etc in system | 10:31 |
| cbx33 | ok...in one of those...is software sources | 10:31 |
| grahamldlw | software properties? | 10:32 |
| LaserJock | yep | 10:33 |
| grahamldlw | then what do i change? | 10:33 |
| grahamldlw | theres alot of community maintained ones unclicked | 10:34 |

| cbx33 | ogra, do you want that gdm splash tonight? | 11:26 |
| ogra | depending on the load it can take longer (up to 1:00 am) | 11:26 |
| ogra | cbx33, the gnome splash ? tomorrow morning would be nice | 11:26 |
| cbx33 | lisa will do it now then ;) | 11:27 |
| ogra | freeze should take place at 15:00 UTC | 11:27 |
| ogra | and i need to solve the progressbasr stuff before | 11:27 |
| cbx33 | right ok | 11:27 |
| cbx33 | are there anyt other changes | 11:27 |
| cbx33 | and what image do yo uwant me to grab to install? | 11:27 |
| ogra | not from my side yet | 11:27 |
| ogra | the lastest install CD indeed | 11:27 |
| cbx33 | how likely/difficult are changes after freeze tomorrow? | 11:27 |
| cbx33 | ogra, ok np | 11:27 |
| ogra | testing live is also fine, but my highest prio is i386 install | 11:28 |
| cbx33 | ok | 11:28 |
| cbx33 | I'm getting it now | 11:28 |
| ogra | if that one's ok i usually move on via amd64 to ppc ... | 11:28 |
| cbx33 | there is only an 11 build for edubuntu | 11:28 |
| cbx33 | is that ok? | 11:28 |
| cbx33 | not 11.1 | 11:28 |
| ogra | yep | 11:28 |
| pips1 | cbx33: as far as I understood, the build that will be available from around 0:00 - 1:00 UTC will be best for our testing efforts... | 11:30 |
| cbx33 | ah....hmmm ok | 11:30 |
| pips1 | I mean *after* around 0:00 - 1:00 UTC | 11:30 |

| cbx33 | aww....we love you LaserJock | 11:32 |
| pips1 | ogra, question: using rysnc and then burning an iso from that and test is ok, no? or should I actually download the "ready-made" iso image that is available from the web page? | 11:32 |
| LaserJock | for some reason my internet connection drops | 11:32 |
| cbx33 | are the nvidia drivers broken in i386? | 11:32 |
| ogra | pips1, rsync is fine and saves bandwith | 11:32 |
| LaserJock | but when I reboot it's all good | 11:32 |
| pips1 | ok | 11:32 |
| === ogra is off for the day | ||
| pips1 | cu | 11:35 |

| pips1 | :) | 11:45 |
| pips1 | I just started rsyncing... I wonder what I rsyncs to, when the iso image changes half way through the process?! | 11:46 |
| cbx33 | pips1, heheh | 11:47 |

| pips1 | I'm amazed by all the effort you (and others) can put in... | 11:50 |
| cbx33 | well.....that's what happens when you have no real social life...and you're wife is a freelance webdesigner who generally works evenings | 11:51 |
| pips1 | I haven't been able to do nealy as much... but I try to be there at least at the right time :) | 11:51 |

| cbx33 | pips1, you do amazing | 11:54 |
| cbx33 | I'm looking forward to how this webstuff is all gonna take off | 11:54 |

| pips1 | unfortunately, my wife has a 8-5 job (well, 8-8, sometimes), so she goes to sleep early.. and get's up much earlier than me :-/ | 11:55 |
| pips1 | I'm looking forward to build a great community site too :) | 11:56 |
| cbx33 | yeh its gonna be excellent | 11:58 |
| grahamldlw | see even other ppl are gettin frustrated with this problem of mine lol | 11:58 |

| pips1 | ? | 12:00 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 12:01 |
| cbx33 | pips1, he's in #ubuntu | 12:01 |
| lucasvo | hi pips1 | 12:01 |
| pips1 | hey lucasvo | 12:01 |
| pips1 | cbx33: ah, ic | 12:01 |
| lucasvo | btw, currently someone working on the webpage? | 12:01 |
| cbx33 | I didn't see the end of the meeting | 12:02 |
| pips1 | nope | 12:02 |
| lucasvo | change the link: Shipit: Order CDs -> Shipit: Order FREE Cds | 12:02 |
| pips1 | lucasvo: ah | 12:02 |
| pips1 | right, hmm. good suggestion | 12:02 |
| pips1 | lucasvo: you have an account in drupal! | 12:03 |
| lucasvo | lucasvo: yes... | 12:04 |
| lucasvo | but I don't remember my pw | 12:04 |
| pips1 | hehe | 12:04 |
| pips1 | It happens to the best of us ;-) | 12:04 |
| lucasvo | I need a place to store pws outside of my brain | 12:04 |
| pips1 | I really need to get myself a password safe, i.e. a palm or smth | 12:05 |
| pips1 | yeah | 12:05 |
| cbx33 | heh | 12:05 |
| cbx33 | or a newton :p | 12:05 |
| lucasvo | my blackberry has this sort of thing but... I don't regulary backup my BB. So if I loose it, I'd be screwed | 12:05 |
| cbx33 | blimey this VM is fast | 12:06 |
| pips1 | does the memory of the blackberry get wiped when the battery dies? | 12:06 |
| cbx33 | I'm half way through LTSP install already | 12:06 |
| pips1 | wow | 12:07 |
| pips1 | lucasvo: ? | 12:07 |
| lucasvo | pips1: what? | 12:07 |
| lucasvo | pips1: no | 12:07 |
| lucasvo | pips1: but i already lost one | 12:07 |
| pips1 | what?! | 12:08 |
| lucasvo | and if someone enters the pw 10times wrong, it deletes itself | 12:08 |
| pips1 | you told me you lost a mobile already | 12:08 |
| lucasvo | yes, the blackberry | 12:08 |
| pips1 | I take it you are someone who looses pocket devices all the time, then, eh ;-) | 12:08 |
| lucasvo | and I bought a new one | 12:08 |
| lucasvo | pips1: no... | 12:09 |
| pips1 | hehe | 12:09 |
| lucasvo | pips1: I lost one blackberry in my life | 12:09 |
| lucasvo | it's hte only pocketdevice I lost | 12:09 |
| === pips1 pulls lucasvo's leg | ||
| lucasvo | but the problem is, I can't sync my bb with linux so I don't do backups | 12:09 |
| pips1 | right | 12:09 |
| lucasvo | pips1: btw, any news on envol? | 12:10 |
| lucasvo | (the french app) | 12:10 |
| pips1 | yeah, for me, the syncing-to-linux is also high on the wishlist for a pda device... | 12:10 |
| pips1 | I met the producer at the education conference | 12:11 |
| lucasvo | pips1: get yourself one which runs linux | 12:11 |
| lucasvo | :) | 12:11 |
| pips1 | producer "auftraggeber" | 12:11 |
| lucasvo | pips1: and what did he say? | 12:11 |
| pips1 | he only said that at the time, doing a cross platform applicatoin meant doing win and mac... | 12:12 |
| lucasvo | :) | 12:12 |
| lucasvo | well, I think it shouldn't be that hard to port it to linux | 12:12 |
| lucasvo | maybe a team of developers could get access to it under NDA | 12:12 |
| lucasvo | and port it | 12:12 |
| pips1 | he says that most newer edu cd-rom apps are done in flash, rather than director | 12:12 |
| pips1 | which is slightly better | 12:13 |
| lucasvo | yes | 12:13 |
| pips1 | still, I can use most recent flash movies (later than flash7), which sucks | 12:14 |
| pips1 | *can't | 12:14 |
| lucasvo | pips1: why? | 12:14 |
| lucasvo | with the proprietary flash plugin? | 12:14 |
| === pips1 checks about:plugins | ||
| pips1 | File name: libflashplayer.so | 12:15 |
| pips1 | Shockwave Flash 7.0 r63 | 12:15 |
| pips1 | hmm | 12:15 |
| pips1 | I installed that via synaptic, I think | 12:15 |
| pips1 | is that the proprietary one, or the open source lib? | 12:16 |
| grahamldlw | wheres cbx33 gone? he still about? | 12:16 |
| cbx33 | yeh I'm here | 12:16 |
| cbx33 | a little busy | 12:16 |
| cbx33 | going now | 12:18 |
| cbx33 | tired ;) | 12:18 |
| pips1 | cbx33: you mentioned earlier that you can install the latest flash player via adobe's web-installer... that didn't use to work for me..?! | 12:18 |
| pips1 | darn, I just missed him | 12:18 |
