| kaushal | hi | 05:13 |
|---|---|---|
| kaushal | Any way to set as "away" in pidgin when i lock the screen in Ubuntu Desktop 10.10. | 05:13 |
| kaushal | Thanks anyways | 05:26 |
| kaushal | fixed it | 05:26 |
| kaushal | http://costela.net/projects/awayonlock/ | 05:27 |
| kaushal | Any connection optimizer available in Ubuntu for playing YouTube Videos | 05:37 |
| kaushal | YouTube Videos always stalls and starts again intermittently | 05:37 |
| nisshh | kaushal, connection optimizer? | 05:37 |
| kaushal | nisshh: hi | 05:37 |
| nisshh | hey | 05:37 |
| nisshh | kaushal, flash is known for being troublesome on linux | 05:38 |
| kaushal | nisshh: yeah | 05:38 |
| kaushal | Actually someone suggested to use htkl5 | 05:38 |
| kaushal | html5* | 05:38 |
| nisshh | yeah | 05:38 |
| kaushal | I am on Ubuntu 10.10 64 Bit Firefox | 05:38 |
| nisshh | its not widespread enough for most people to use yet, youtube doesnt have all its videos in html5 format yet | 05:39 |
| kaushal | yes | 05:39 |
| nisshh | ah 64bit | 05:39 |
| nisshh | 64bit flash is known to be crap | 05:39 |
| nisshh | people always have problems with it | 05:39 |
| nisshh | because adobe are lazy about 64bit lunix support | 05:39 |
| kaushal | yes | 05:39 |
| kaushal | nisshh: any workaround for playing YouTube Videos on Firefox ? | 05:40 |
| nisshh | kaushal, hmm, html5 is your best bet, tbh, although there is an application that lets you download the video first and then play it, but a recent youtube update broke support for it | 05:41 |
| nisshh | kaushal, have you tried other browsers? (chromium, opera, epiphany) | 05:41 |
| kaushal | nisshh: ok | 05:43 |
| nisshh | kaushal, if it doesnt happen in them, it may well be firefox | 05:44 |
| kaushal | sure | 05:44 |
| sagaci | sudo apt-get install youtube-dl | 06:40 |
| nisshh | sagaci, thats the one, but a youtube update broke it | 06:41 |
| sagaci | nisshh: how long ago | 06:42 |
| sagaci | i use it a week or so ago | 06:42 |
| nisshh | sagaci, like 2-3 days ago | 06:43 |
| nisshh | sagaci, apparently the developer fixed it so you can download and play them, but seeking is still broken | 06:44 |
| sagaci | yeah that's right | 06:51 |
| sagaci | you just have to rebuild the indexes | 06:52 |
| sagaci | i do it via vlc | 06:52 |
| nisshh | ah ok | 06:52 |

| head_victim | nisshh: I've had a bit of luck with 64 bit flash, google "flash 10 squared" which I think is their beta | 09:17 |
| * nisshh googles | 09:17 | |
| head_victim | I haven't used it for too long but it's been going ok for me | 09:18 |
| nisshh | hmm | 09:18 |
| nisshh | head_victim, seems to just be flash with some run-time encoding enhancements, am i right? | 09:19 |
| head_victim | No idea to be honest :D | 09:19 |
| nisshh | hehe | 09:19 |
| head_victim | You know me, end user only. | 09:19 |
| * nisshh jumps out of technical mode | 09:19 | |
| nisshh | yeah :) | 09:20 |
| head_victim | Supposedly native 64bit though | 09:20 |
| nisshh | yeah | 09:20 |
| elky | I don't think there's been a special process for installing flash on 64bit for quite a while | 09:44 |
| nisshh | yeah | 09:44 |
| nisshh | elky, its just still really buggy i think | 09:45 |
| nisshh | for some people anyway | 09:45 |
| elky | I've had a 64bit laptop for almost 2 years and never had flash issues | 09:45 |
| nisshh | yeah | 09:45 |
| nisshh | its interesting how some people never have issues and yet some people have issues the second they start using it | 09:46 |
| elky | you will have issues if you install both the adobe player and gnash. that seems to be the biggest problem i come across; people trying to preemptively fix what isn't broken | 09:47 |
| nisshh | yeah | 09:49 |
| jfer | What is the latest on those classroom sessions? | 13:28 |
| nisshh | jfer, the ones i was organising? | 13:29 |
| jfer | yes | 13:29 |
| nisshh | hehe | 13:29 |
| nisshh | they are still happening | 13:29 |
| nisshh | but i have no date set yet | 13:30 |
| nisshh | i have been sorting out a lot of other stuff recently, so havent had the time | 13:30 |
| jfer | oh ok | 13:30 |
| nisshh | but if i dont go on holiday on the 20th, it might be sometime around christmas | 13:30 |
| nisshh | otherwise, it will be in january next year | 13:31 |
| nisshh | jfer, there is a team meeting tomorrow night, are you coming? | 13:31 |
| jfer | sounds good. i have been taking part in Daniel Holbach's videocasts | 13:31 |
| jfer | yer i should be at tomorrow nights meeting | 13:31 |
| nisshh | i see | 13:32 |
| nisshh | jfer, i promise i will hold the sessions, i just dont know when :) | 13:32 |
| nisshh | jfer, at the meeting tomorrow night i will ask around and see if i can russel up some attendance and interest | 13:33 |
| nisshh | i see no point in running a session with 3 people attending, tbh | 13:33 |
| jfer | agreed | 13:33 |
| nisshh | jfer, that reminds me, i might add a topic for the meeting about choosing a topic for the first session :) | 13:34 |
| nisshh | if that makes sense :) | 13:34 |
