[00:01] <penguin42> sounds like a broken counter
[00:01] <Craig_Dem> I think it is a hardware/Firmware problem, hasn't risen from 2,147,480,000
[00:02] <Craig_Dem> Up to 318 FEC Downstream errors though.
[00:19] <penguin42> ooohhh - I thought you said 21BN, 2.1 B is a whole different kettle of fish
[00:19] <penguin42> that's just close to 2^31
[02:43] <Azelphur> uhh, strange russian dude comes in and changes the topic sends a weird CTCP and leaves?
[02:43]  * Azelphur looks suspiciously

[12:28] <twager> Anyone tell me how I transfer music files on my sons ipodtouch to my ipodtouch ?
[12:32] <MartijnVdS> twager: plug in one ipod, copy files to local library in rhythmbox (select the ipod in the left pane, then select all songs in the right part, drag them to your "Library" in the left pane)
[12:33] <MartijnVdS> twager: then unplug, plug in the other ipod, and drag the songs from your library to the other ipod
[12:33] <twager> MartijnVdS, Thanks...Will give it a whirl..
[15:06] <jacobw> happy boxing day ubuntu people
[15:11] <penguin42> hi jacobw
[15:14] <MartijnVdS> jacobw: more like unboxing day ;)
[15:25]  * jacobw has a new jumper, and is snug
[15:29] <gord> huh, youtube has upped the upload limit on some accounts to unlimited, including mine. time for me to upload five hours of me ranting about why i hate the star wars prequals!
[15:29] <gord> its because they suck
[15:30]  * Nafallo ♥ U1MS
[15:33] <MartijnVdS> ♫
[15:33] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: ^
[15:34] <Nafallo> just found yet another album from when I was a kid :-)
[15:34] <Nafallo> been missing this music
[15:35] <Nafallo> - I sneak into your house, and sleep between you and your wife, because I'm a nervous wreck
[15:35] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: which music? :)
[15:35] <Nafallo> Souls - Bird Fish or Inbetween
[15:35] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: I've been browing my dad's record collection.. he has a WEIRD taste ;)
[15:38] <Nafallo> wow. I still remember the lyrics... *sings along*
[15:43] <czajkowski> aloha
[15:43]  * Nafallo wonders what he'll buy next...
[15:44] <Nafallo> Skunk Anansie by the way this is going :-)
[15:44] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: keep it cheap, add this to your radio stations: http://shoutcast.omroep.nl:8102/listen.pls
[15:44] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: Dutch radio :)
[15:45] <Nafallo> MartijnVdS: I've got http://stream.magicalforest.net:8000/rk-high if I feel like streaming ;-)
[15:45] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: do they have this? http://top2010.radio2.nl/
[15:46] <Nafallo> MartijnVdS: I'm the admin of that icecast proxy, so can easily add whatever I want ;-)
[15:46] <Nafallo> makes sense to put a relay closer to me :-)
[15:50] <Nafallo> heh. U1MS doesn't have Abhinanda :-P
[15:50] <Nafallo> almost surprised.
[15:59] <MartijnVdS> ooh. Top Gear tonight :)
[16:02] <matti> Is public transport operating on boxing day in the UK?
[16:02] <matti> I never remember
[16:02] <matti> :<
[16:04] <jacobw> i think so..
[16:05] <matti> Right ;]
[16:05] <jacobw> by which i mean yes
[16:05] <matti> It will save me up to 30 min walking in the snow then ;]
[16:05] <matti> jacobw: Tx.
[16:08] <Nafallo> matti: transport for london is on strike at least.
[16:10] <SuperMatt> not all of it
[16:10] <SuperMatt> there's stil buses
[16:11] <Nafallo> sure
[16:12] <Nafallo> but if they were supposed to be off, they wouldn't be striking today ;-)
[16:12] <matti> Nafallo: So, no DLR?
[16:12] <Nafallo> matti: I'd check the homepage before travelling today.
[16:13] <Nafallo> no idea what's open or not TBH.
[16:13] <Nafallo> I bought enough food to sit the strike out, and Relentless sent me free energy drinks, so I'm all good ;-)
[16:33] <Azelphur> Daviey: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apparmor/+bug/615177 my TV is still suffering from this
[16:34] <Azelphur> shouldn't the fix be out by now?
[16:35] <Azelphur> or if anyone else can see how to work around ^
[17:07] <Karti> Hi all, is it better to give  server a fixed IP rather than lock it down to a fixed ip address from within a dhcp server ? Cheers
[17:38] <penguin42> Karti: Yes, that way if the DHCP server or networking fails, when the networking comes back the server is still accessible
[17:45] <zleap> just downloading ubuntu 11.04
[17:45] <zleap> alpha
[17:53] <jacobw> have fun
[18:08] <MartijnVdS> wow

[18:08] <MartijnVdS> where did I get _that_
[18:08] <popey> retro
[18:09] <Nafallo> MartijnVdS: xmas present? :-P
[18:09] <zleap> jacobw, thanks
[18:09] <zleap> just going to have a look for now, it seems unity has caused quite a stir
[18:09] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: nah, found a box of old hardware
[18:09] <Nafallo> MartijnVdS: give it all away next year as xmas presents? ;-)
[18:10] <zleap> Nafallo, sounds good
[18:10] <zleap> :)
[18:10] <MartijnVdS> Intel 10/100 card as well..and a GSM phone from the stone age
[18:10]  * Nafallo can't stop popping today again...
[18:10] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: bubble wrap?
[18:11] <zleap> i got loads of bubble wrap and similar here
[18:11] <Nafallo> MartijnVdS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popping
[18:12] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: ah, "popping some caps"?
[18:13] <MartijnVdS> Nafallo: you're quite the dancer, aren't you.. Step Up 3D, Popping, ... :)
[18:14] <Nafallo> wait until after I've had my first lesson with Boy Blue ;-)
[18:15] <suprengr> hmmm Boy Blue... how Little can one get??
[18:15] <MartijnVdS> and the man on the moon?

[19:05] <sam_010203> Hello people....!!!   does anyone know if its possible to install KDE desktop without all the software that comes with it????  Thanks
[19:06] <Azelphur> !punctuation | sam_010203
[19:06] <Azelphur> sam_010203: I doubt it
[19:07] <sam_010203> There is no doubt with linux, just an IS or and ISNT .... thanks anyway.
[19:07] <jacobw> what is KDE desktop without all the software that comes with it?
[19:08] <sam_010203> jacobw,   i have gnome desktop now.  if i install kde, will get loads of other software installs too....  dont want them!!! hehe
[19:08] <Azelphur> sam_010203: but KDE without all those pieces of software is nothing
[19:08] <Azelphur> gnome and KDE are collections of software to provide you with a "desktop environment"
[19:09] <jacobw> you probably want kdebase-apps
[19:09] <sam_010203> i have a browser, i have skype.  i dont need all the extras that come along with it.
[19:09] <jacobw> sudo apt-get install kdebase-apps
[19:10] <sam_010203> jacobw,    ill try it now
[19:12] <jacobw> KDE comes in lots of little parts :p
[19:19] <jacobw> argh. why did he quit
[19:20] <BigRedS_> jacobw: to "try it now"? ;)
[19:21] <jacobw> hmm the "must part IRC to complete an action" mentality
[19:21] <BigRedS_> though why that involves quitting I'm not sure...
[19:21] <BigRedS_> yeah, I'm also a bit confused by the mentality of acting upon a suggestion as soon as one's made
[19:21] <BigRedS_> not really leaving time for discussion
[19:48] <UtrinqueParatus> if i wanted to add /dev/sdb1 to fstab with rw access for everyone what would be the line?
[19:50] <UtrinqueParatus> /dev/sdb1   /media/2tb    ext4    rw    0     2
[19:51] <UtrinqueParatus> is what i have but its not working
[19:51] <Nafallo> s/rw/defaults/
[19:51] <UtrinqueParatus> defaults didn;t work either
[19:51] <Nafallo> then check that /media/2tb exists, and that the partition is actually set up as ext4
[19:51] <UtrinqueParatus> it does and it is
[19:52] <Nafallo> well, in that case it worls :-)
[19:52] <Nafallo> works even
[19:52] <popey> define "not working"
[19:52] <popey> have you typed "sudo mount -a" or "sudo mount /media/2tb" after?
[19:52] <UtrinqueParatus> jdownloader cant write to the directory
[19:52] <popey> is it mounted?
[19:53] <Nafallo> have you set yourpermissions right on the filesystem then?
[19:53]  * popey tickles Nafallo 
[19:53] <Nafallo> cause default is root:root 755
[19:53]  * Nafallo licks popey
[19:53] <popey> \o.
[19:53]  * popey melts
[19:55] <Nafallo> popey: are stores open tomorrow? and will they have cheaper pricing yet? :-)
[19:58]  * BigRedS_ wonders why popey would know
[19:58] <BigRedS_> (quite genuinely, I'm intrigued)
[19:58] <Craig_Dem> Sales started today.
[19:59] <Craig_Dem> afaik
[19:59] <Nafallo> BigRedS_: popey knows everything. and he's fun to blame when he didn't :-)
[19:59] <Nafallo> Craig_Dem: ta
[20:00] <BigRedS_> Nafallo: Oh yeah, there is that :)
[20:01] <Nafallo> popey: btw. when can I expect some test traffic for my new uupc httpd? ;-)
[20:06] <BigRedS_> Nafallo: test traffic?
[20:06] <BigRedS_> just http to it and see if it works
[20:07] <directhex> yes, sales are salin'
[20:07] <Nafallo> BigRedS_: yeah, I guess I could run ab from somewhere....
[20:07] <Nafallo> but that would be just one IP hitting it :-P
[20:07] <Nafallo> BigRedS_: I changed to thttpd :-D
[20:08] <BigRedS_> Nafallo: irritate Anon, you'll get loads of IPs :)
[20:10] <Nafallo> bah. I think they should just release a new episode :-P
[20:22]  * suprengr looks at topic & keeps wondering: if channel topic is scared of the word "CHRISTMAS"... how dare it be so presumptuous as to precede it with an assumption of happiness!
[20:23]  * suprengr can't wait to see the farce it makes of EASTER
[20:24] <suprengr> [whoops. just used two forbidden words]
[20:26] <zleap> hi
[20:26] <zleap> anyone tried 11.04 bet
[21:13] <jacobw> how goes it zleap ?
[21:16] <zleap> good thanks
[21:18] <_H> I have a deal here for a Dell PowerEdge 1850 1u 1x Intel Pentium 4 Xeon. Fsb 800 selling second hand for £80 is this a good deal?
[21:21] <stgraber> I bought the same two years ago for 100 CAD (£64). At this price it's still cheap for an actual rackmount server though.
[21:21] <stgraber> bought mine from an HPC cluster that was being replaced by newer generation hardware, they had some 800 of these to sell back then.
[21:40] <UtrinqueParatus> popey, Nafallo : thanks guys it was the permissions on /media/2tb
[21:59] <sprite> which DLNA server would any of you recommend? So far I've been advised that PS3mediaserver is mose gui/n00b friends and compatible with most dvdplayers and tvs
[22:08] <MartijnVdS> My NAS is a DLNA server, but before that I used mediatomb
[22:08] <MartijnVdS> no idea if that's still current
[22:15] <sprite> I would be surprised if it is but time will tell. THis is the most quiet I've seen this channel
[22:26] <d3ngar> Hi, I need some help with ALSA. The sound system doesn't work properly - very shaky... Sometimes it gets the right devices, sometimes the devices do not work at all
[22:26] <d3ngar> It's very random
[22:26] <d3ngar> The microphone is the biggest problem
[22:27] <d3ngar> It's on and off
[22:27] <d3ngar> Within the same session and then somtimes working after re-start and then not at all again
[23:24] <thegenie4> howdy
[23:25] <thegenie4> i'm getting a 45 second hang time before my bios post splash screen
[23:25] <thegenie4> and when i shutdown from ubuntu
[23:25] <thegenie4> the OS shuts down
[23:25] <thegenie4> but the laptop is still running with a blank screen
[23:25] <penguin42> what do you mean by 'before my bios post splash screen'
[23:26] <thegenie4> it says lenovo thinkpad
[23:26] <thegenie4> before it boots the OS
[23:26] <penguin42> what do you mean before it boots the OS
[23:27] <penguin42> you mean it just sets at the Thinkpad lovo screen for 45 sec?
[23:27] <thegenie4> exactly that
[23:27] <thegenie4> no
[23:27] <thegenie4> no before it gets to the thinkpad logo screen
[23:27] <thegenie4> there is a 45 second lag with a blank screen
[23:27] <penguin42> weird
[23:27] <thegenie4> after that screen shows it boots as normal
[23:28] <thegenie4> i've tried resetting bios to defaults
[23:28] <thegenie4> taking the cmos battery out for a couple of hours
[23:28] <thegenie4> no luck with either
[23:29] <penguin42> got any USB devices or the like plugged in?
[23:30] <thegenie4> no
[23:30] <thegenie4> i've even tried it without the HDD
[23:30] <thegenie4> still the same
[23:30] <thegenie4> i'm thinking it's something do do with the BIOS
[23:31] <penguin42> yeh well at that point there isn't much else
