| ali1234 | i get 55.7 seconds but i only have a GTS 240 | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Azelphur | ali1234: what's the package? It's not pyopencl or python-opengl | 00:01 |
| Azelphur | opencl* | 00:01 |
| ali1234 | python-pyopencl | 00:01 |
| Azelphur | ali1234: 28 seconds | 00:04 |
| Azelphur | :D | 00:04 |
| ali1234 | hmmmmmm | 00:05 |
| ali1234 | that's still not fast enough | 00:05 |
| Azelphur | ali1234: when I start it it asks if I want to use "D13U" or "GeForce 8800 GT" | 00:05 |
| hamitron | is it using enough "threads"? | 00:05 |
| Azelphur | on D13U which is no doubt the 570, it runs in 28 seconds | 00:05 |
| Azelphur | if I try to run it on the 8800GT it errors | 00:05 |
| ali1234 | if i ran the C version of the algorithm on all 4 cores it would run about the same speed | 00:06 |
| hamitron | Azelphur: how many cores yours have? | 00:07 |
| Azelphur | graphics card? | 00:07 |
| Azelphur | nfi | 00:07 |
| hamitron | yeh | 00:07 |
| ali1234 | GPUs use SIMD | 00:07 |
| hamitron | so it auto spreads? | 00:09 |
| hamitron | been cheap, I went for the GTS 450 with only 192 cores | 00:10 |
| hamitron | ;) | 00:10 |
| ali1234 | it has 192 cores but they all do the same instruction | 00:11 |
| ali1234 | same instruction multiple data | 00:11 |
| hamitron | ah | 00:11 |
| ali1234 | so eg add together 192 pairs of different number, giving 192 answers | 00:11 |
| hamitron | so is 256 cores twice as good as 128? | 00:12 |
| hamitron | or depends on program? | 00:12 |
| ali1234 | if you have larger datasets, yes | 00:12 |
| ali1234 | all my arrays are bigger than 256 elements, so it should use the card to the max... | 00:12 |
| hamitron | does yours have large datasets? | 00:12 |
| hamitron | Azelphur: appears yours has upto 512 :D | 00:14 |
| MattJ | ali1234: map/reduce! \o/ | 00:15 |
| ali1234 | actually i always do at least 1024 | 00:15 |
| andylockran | neat | 00:15 |
| ali1234 | up to 1024*1024 | 00:15 |
| ali1234 | maybe it's python overhead | 00:15 |
| hamitron | use C... | 00:16 |
| hamitron | ;) | 00:16 |
| ali1234 | i hate writing boilerplate | 00:16 |
| hamitron | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA#Supported_GPUs | 00:17 |
| hamitron | why does the GTX570 support a lower version? | 00:17 |
| hamitron | or is that just wrong | 00:18 |
| ali1234 | no idea | 00:18 |
| ali1234 | hmm... i have an idea | 00:19 |
| hamitron | 556Gb partition defragmented at last \o/ | 00:21 |
| * hamitron has learnt his lesson, never run it with less than 1Gb free space | 00:22 | |
| directhex | hm... commercial ripping app w/ linux port works with all my discs, even the 3d one released 2 weeks ago | 01:42 |

| andylockran | no idea why I woke up this early. | 06:38 |
| andylockran | even less idea why I decided it would be a good thing to then come into the office | 06:38 |
| MartijnVdS | morning :) | 06:49 |
| MartijnVdS | andylockran: office? on saturday? | 06:49 |
| andylockran | MartijnVdS: yeah :s | 06:49 |
| andylockran | trying to teach my bodyclock a lesson | 06:49 |
| MartijnVdS | andylockran: I do that by going to sleep at 22:00, then making myself not get up before 6 | 06:50 |
| andylockran | yeah, I tried that and failed :s | 06:50 |
| MartijnVdS | Now I've done that, I can go to sleep at any time, and still wake up at 6, without an alarm | 06:50 |
| MartijnVdS | It even works across time zones (once I'm de-jetlagged it works instantly!) | 06:50 |
| * MartijnVdS has been living "alarm clockless" for ~7 years now | 06:51 | |
| andylockran | MartijnVdS: any nice plans for the weekend? | 06:51 |
| MartijnVdS | andylockran: going for a run in a few hours | 06:52 |
| andylockran | that's my plan also :) | 06:52 |
| MartijnVdS | then bring some large trash^Wstuff to the recycling place | 06:52 |
| MartijnVdS | I'm planning 10-15km (6-9.5mi) | 06:53 |
| andylockran | I'm only going to do 6km | 06:53 |
| andylockran | not been out for a while | 06:53 |
| MartijnVdS | I want to run the local 20km early March | 06:53 |
| MartijnVdS | so I need the practice :) | 06:53 |
| MartijnVdS | (and when I'm done, I can say I ran 20 km at 10 kph while being 30 years old :) | 06:54 |
| andylockran | MartijnVdS: I know the feeling. Not ran much before, did a 10k last year in 53.54 and was so chuffed | 06:54 |
| andylockran | hoping to get a sub-50 time in the spring | 06:55 |
| MartijnVdS | andylockran: Yeah last year I couldn't run more than 5 minutes | 06:55 |
| andylockran | got some interesting projects on at the moment. | 07:00 |
| * MartijnVdS has been buying (and playing :)) records.. the old vinyl ones :) | 07:01 | |
| lazarus_ | morning | 07:01 |
| MartijnVdS | \o lazarus_ | 07:01 |
| lazarus_ | 21 today woop | 07:01 |
| MartijnVdS | congratifications! | 07:02 |
| andylockran | congrats from me too! | 07:02 |
| * MartijnVdS gives lazarus_ a free copy of Ubuntu for his b'day | 07:02 | |
| * andylockran provides 64 bit.. | 07:02 | |
| * lazarus_ already runs ubuntu 10.10 64-bit | 07:03 | |
| lazarus_ | on an intel i3 550 with 1tb hdd and 4gb ddr3 | 07:04 |
| andylockran | sounds nice :) | 07:04 |
| lazarus_ | the ram is crap and needs replacing | 07:05 |
| MartijnVdS | lazarus_: heh, I have an i3 550, 1TB, 4GB :) | 07:05 |
| andylockran | you know what to ask for your birthday then :) | 07:05 |
| MartijnVdS | but I'm running Natty | 07:05 |
| andylockran | I have a model name: Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.80GHz | 07:06 |
| lazarus_ | with the asus p7h55-m si mobo | 07:06 |
| andylockran | with a 500GB HD and 4GB DDR2 | 07:06 |
| MartijnVdS | model name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU 530 @ 2.93GHz | 07:06 |
| MartijnVdS | oh I have a 530 apparently ;) | 07:06 |
| MartijnVdS | misremembered | 07:06 |
| MartijnVdS | Product Name: P7H55-M PRO | 07:07 |
| MartijnVdS | lazarus_: are you a clone of me? | 07:07 |
| MartijnVdS | lazarus_: but 9 years younger? :P | 07:07 |
| lazarus_ | hehe i have the P7H55- SI | 07:08 |
| lazarus_ | not PRO | 07:08 |
| MartijnVdS | what's the difference? | 07:08 |
| lazarus_ | hehe i have the P7H55-M SI | 07:08 |
| lazarus_ | dunno | 07:08 |
| lazarus_ | tbh | 07:08 |
| lazarus_ | my ram is cheaply made and isnt up to par | 07:09 |
| lazarus_ | V-DATA 1333mhz] | 07:12 |
| lazarus_ | V-DATA 1333mhz | 07:12 |
| lazarus_ | 2 x 2GB | 07:12 |
| MartijnVdS | I don't know what mine are | 07:12 |
| MartijnVdS | and the case is closed so I can't look | 07:13 |
| lazarus_ | in total i paid £370 for the whole pc the £149 for my monitor | 07:13 |
| MartijnVdS | nice and cheap :) | 07:13 |
| MartijnVdS | I have a satellite receiver card in this one | 07:14 |
| lazarus_ | thats what i thought too | 07:14 |
| MartijnVdS | so I can watch Freesat while I work :) | 07:14 |
| lazarus_ | cool | 07:14 |
| lazarus_ | expensive? | 07:14 |
| MartijnVdS | the card? nah, €100ish | 07:14 |
| lazarus_ | cool | 07:15 |
| MartijnVdS | the dish was more expensive (but I use that for the box connected to my TV as well) | 07:15 |
| lazarus_ | unfortunatly i still have windows installed for gaming | 07:15 |
| MartijnVdS | I have a separate machine (and a PS3) for that | 07:15 |
| MartijnVdS | Also use it to update my Logitech remote (no Linux software, boo!) | 07:16 |
| lazarus_ | uh-oh i own the ps3's enemy | 07:17 |
| MartijnVdS | lazarus_: Wii? ;) | 07:18 |
| lazarus_ | pahahaha no | 07:18 |
| lazarus_ | MartijnVdS: xbox 360 | 07:20 |
| lazarus_ | lol | 07:22 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 08:06 |
| MartijnVdS | morning cz<tab> | 08:06 |
| HazRPG | I knew there was a reason I barely go on ##windows :/ | 08:17 |
| chalcedony | haha | 08:18 |
| lazarus_ | HazRPG: what reason | 08:18 |
| HazRPG | treating you like a noob | 08:19 |
| HazRPG | all I wanted was a recommendation of a tweak program to edit registry based stuff without having to do some googling or trial-n-error of random thing | 08:20 |
| HazRPG | things* | 08:20 |
| HazRPG | people part of the open-source world are much friendlier | 08:21 |
| czajkowski | egg and soliders are nyoomy! | 08:30 |
| czajkowski | Just sayin' | 08:30 |
| popey | hah | 08:30 |
| czajkowski | ohh a popey | 08:31 |
| czajkowski | ello | 08:31 |
| danfish | czajkowski: is soliders a typo or an Irish thing? | 08:31 |
| danfish | morning btw | 08:31 |
| popey | just warmed up some chocolate croissants for the kids | 08:31 |
| popey | i may have a sausage sarnie | 08:32 |
| popey | danfish: wut! | 08:32 |
| czajkowski | danfish: eh | 08:32 |
| popey | soldiers is toast sliced to you can dip it in a boiled egg | 08:32 |
| czajkowski | you are kidding | 08:32 |
| popey | every child knows this! | 08:32 |
| czajkowski | popey: :D | 08:32 |
| popey | :) | 08:32 |
| popey | http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2104/1557814947_1a649347e3.jpg | 08:32 |
| czajkowski | yup! lovely yummy runny egg! | 08:33 |
| danfish | popey: :) | 08:33 |
| danfish | ooohh - 6 sleeps until our first child free weekend \o/ | 08:35 |
| czajkowski | heh | 08:35 |
| czajkowski | danfish: I take it this is a good thing? | 08:36 |
| danfish | I love em, but could do with a weekend off | 08:36 |
| czajkowski | danfish: how many do you have ? | 08:36 |
| popey | BAH! | 08:36 |
| popey | i kicked off a 35 hour job at 18:30 last night | 08:36 |
| popey | some dope rebooted the box I was running it on | 08:37 |
| czajkowski | :( | 08:37 |
| czajkowski | so is grumpy going to deal with dopey ? | 08:38 |
| danfish | czajkowski: 2 boys, a 20mnth old and a 4 yr old | 08:38 |
| czajkowski | awww nice :) | 08:38 |
| danfish | popey: that's some job, what was it? | 08:38 |
| popey | oracle cost based optimizer | 08:40 |
| czajkowski | even the name of it doesn't sound friendly | 08:40 |
| popey | heheh | 08:40 |
| czajkowski | granted it has the word oracle in it, which alone makes it that way | 08:40 |
| popey | true | 08:40 |
| popey | its a very intensive job, especially given it's chugging through 8TB of data | 08:41 |
| czajkowski | od I feel more human today, have a ton of energy | 08:41 |
| popey | great! | 08:41 |
| czajkowski | so why did the twat go and reboot the machine? | 08:41 |
| danfish | and optimizer is spelt with a 'z' ;) | 08:41 |
| danfish | which makes it even wrongerer | 08:42 |
| popey | http://www.google.co.uk/search?aq=f&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=oracle+cost+based | 08:42 |
| popey | oh, sadly it is | 08:42 |
| czajkowski | dear rain go away, I need to go get some fresh air | 08:43 |
| popey | czajkowski: they were re-cabling the datacentre | 08:43 |
| * danfish orders a batch order of "Cost Based Oracle Fundamentals" to dish out as sleep aids to insomniacs :P | 08:43 | |
| popey | and we gave them a very specific list of boxes to do, mine was absolutely not on the list | 08:43 |
| popey | seems like they yanked it anyway | 08:43 |
| czajkowski | bugger | 08:44 |
| czajkowski | danfish: I can also recommend any networks college book. Puts you straight out | 08:44 |
| popey | hey ho | 08:44 |
| czajkowski | I hated that module in college | 08:44 |
| popey | oracle books are incredibly dull | 08:44 |
| popey | all database books are IMO | 08:44 |
| danfish | me cable monkey, me see cable me yanks ;) | 08:44 |
| popey | when the DC was put in the servers were moved in from another DC, the company saved money by using the server luggers to do the cabling rather than a cabling company | 08:45 |
| popey | which is why now we are re-cabling | 08:45 |
| popey | :) | 08:45 |
| czajkowski | not much cost saving then | 08:46 |
| popey | nope | 08:46 |
| popey | and we get all kinds of issues due to the cables being plugged in wrong | 08:46 |
| * czajkowski decided to go to Canada last night for a holiday CANNOT_WAIT | 08:46 | |
| popey | heyho, enough work crap :) | 08:46 |
| popey | yay holidays! | 08:46 |
| danfish | czajkowski: Canada's ace - where you going? | 08:46 |
| czajkowski | danfish: Guelp | 08:47 |
| czajkowski | danfish: about 13 of my mates are gone to Canada for work in the last 2-3 years | 08:47 |
| czajkowski | danfish: it's just outside of Toronto | 08:47 |
| danfish | we nearly moved to Canada 3 years ago | 08:47 |
| czajkowski | we all got out the Google cals last night and found July to be a quiet month :) | 08:47 |
| czajkowski | danfish: oh if I didnt get this job back in November, I'd have gone to Canada, was going to work for mate that I'm now visiting minding her kids till I got work | 08:48 |
| czajkowski | had all the forms to get the visa | 08:48 |
| danfish | you'll have fun there, eh? | 08:48 |
| czajkowski | admittedly it makes it harder to go to oggcamp if I moved to canada | 08:48 |
| danfish | true - but it's a very tempting place to work. | 08:49 |
| czajkowski | danfish: yup :D a week of sun, no nerds (as much as I love ye lot) and catching up with my 2 best mates | 08:49 |
| danfish | we'll track you down :D | 08:49 |
| czajkowski | danfish: yup, salaries are damn high, mate moved over, she's a single mum with 3 kids. The kids adore it, the eldest was struggling in school back home, and is now caught up and in the top 5% of her class | 08:49 |
| czajkowski | the twins now there 2 years have such cute accents. | 08:50 |
| popey | do they say 'aboot'? | 08:51 |
| czajkowski | popey: the twins do, the 10 year old nope | 08:51 |
| popey | you're not proper canadian until you do | 08:51 |
| czajkowski | hard to believe they will be 5 next month, considering when they were born they nearly didn't live 4lbs and 3lbs :( then home and stopped breathing as they had sleep apnea | 08:52 |
| popey | erk | 08:53 |
| popey | one of out friends has a kid with sleep apnea | 08:53 |
| popey | and my father in law has it | 08:53 |
| danfish | it's unpleasant and underfunded here | 08:54 |
| czajkowski | aye I think Alannah grew out of it after a litle over a year Cillian took him till he was 2 to stop. Tc had to resuscitate Cillian when he was a month old. Good thing she teaches that kinda thing | 08:54 |
| czajkowski | danfish: aye so true | 08:54 |
| czajkowski | and frigging scarey. cots had alarms fitted so we all knew what to do when they went off ---- RUN! | 08:54 |
| popey | blimey | 08:54 |
| popey | http://piersmorgan.blogs.cnn.com/2011/01/07/what-time-does-piers-morgan-tonight-air-in-your-country/ does that page load for anyone? | 08:55 |
| czajkowski | yes | 08:55 |
| popey | kinda just sits there for me and never finishes, all i see is the header | 08:55 |
| czajkowski | now I get to see his ugly mug, thanks popey | 08:55 |
| danfish | sadly yes | 08:55 |
| popey | all of the page? | 08:55 |
| czajkowski | yes | 08:56 |
| * czajkowski prods popey | 08:56 | |
| popey | how odd | 08:56 |
| danfish | yes, again sadly | 08:56 |
| czajkowski | it's a long page of comments as well | 08:56 |
| popey | interesting, its powered by wordpress.com | 08:56 |
| popey | aha, finally loaded | 08:56 |
| * czajkowski got her blog moved over to new hosting so no more down time and falling over ! | 08:57 | |
| danfish | popey: you need to put some more coins in the internet meter ;) | 08:57 |
| popey | :) | 08:57 |
| popey | kvarley: my minecraft server is up :) | 08:58 |
| kvarley | popey :) please can you pm me the ip? | 08:58 |
| popey | popeydc.dyndns.org | 08:58 |
| popey | http://popeydc.dyndns.org/ <- graphical map :) | 08:58 |
| kvarley | thanks :) | 08:59 |
| danfish | czajkowski: next time your in central London, there's a Canadican pub in Covent Garden - the Maple Leaf | 09:02 |
| HazRPG | hmmz, that's the 10th time this week I've heard minecraft... what is it exactly? | 09:04 |
| HazRPG | and why haven't I heard about it before this week? | 09:04 |
| danfish | HazRPG: it's been classified as a class A drug - be warned :) | 09:05 |
| HazRPG | xD | 09:05 |
| HazRPG | like World of Warcraft then? | 09:05 |
| Myrtti | i hate scrabble | 09:06 |
| danfish | I haven't actually played it yet as I'm still in therapy for my Angry Birds addiction | 09:06 |
| HazRPG | guessing minecraft is a paid for game right? | 09:09 |
| HazRPG | according to minecraft.net at least | 09:09 |
| daubers | Morning | 09:14 |
| danfish | lo daubers | 09:15 |
| HazRPG | \o daubers | 09:17 |
| * daubers notes he has 250 updates waiting and can't land them because some dependancies of libre office aren't there yet :( | 09:18 | |
| daubers | Anyonne know if there's a quickly template set for working with Qt instead of GTK? | 09:26 |
| HazRPG | hmm, I'm stuck at "Planting..." on http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp <-- that site | 09:27 |
| Laney | why don't you just do a safe-upgrade? | 09:27 |
| Laney | or let the aptitude resolver pick a solution that works | 09:27 |
| daubers | Laney: because the resolver wants to remove Unity :( | 09:28 |
| HazRPG | at like 75% | 09:28 |
| Laney | keep saying no | 09:28 |
| Laney | until it gets to one which doesnt | 09:28 |
| AndIrc__ | hi everyone... wonder if anyone can help, have a laptop that will no longer boot into x after I set the auto logon checkbox for a user. u can get to a command line, all I need to know is where that checkbox info is stored in a config file | 10:19 |
| AndIrc__ | so I can undo it | 10:19 |
| AndIrc__ | its a 10.10 install | 10:20 |
| nperry | AndIrc__: /etc/gdm/custom.conf | 10:26 |
| dwatkins | andirc__: /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom according to a search | 10:26 |
| dwatkins | heh ok | 10:27 |
| AndIrc__ | I don't have either of those files in that location | 10:30 |
| dwatkins | hmm | 10:35 |
| dwatkins | I can only suggest grepping for the configuration settings, e.g. AutomaticLogin | 10:36 |
| AndIrc__ | ok will give that a go.... thanks | 10:37 |

| jonsaint | hi all. i got very little knowledge with ubuntu as ive been on the dark side for many years so still a learning curve for me, on ubuntu, do i need any kind of anti-virus and if so, where do i get it and is it easy to set up? | 11:10 |
| mash909 | morning, my new 10.10 install seemed fine last night, but now things crash immediately after login! I can get to tty | 11:11 |
| cps | Morning everyone :) | 11:12 |
| marxjohnson | jonsaint: Depends. In general, no you don't, but if you've got Windows machines on your network and you're sharing files with them, it's best to install something like ClamAV and do a regular scan. | 11:12 |
| * cps is on a train to preston | 11:12 | |
| mash909 | what's the best way to verify my disks? | 11:12 |
| marxjohnson | This is, however, to stop Windows getting infected, not Ubuntu | 11:13 |
| jonsaint | i got nothing networked marx. its just this machine and the internet | 11:13 |
| marxjohnson | Not running a mailserver/webserver or anything on it? | 11:13 |
| marxjohnson | mash909: fsck? | 11:14 |
| jonsaint | nope. i did a format of my hard drive to wipe off that nasty microsoft rubbsh and installed ubuntu | 11:14 |
| marxjohnson | cool, you should be safe then | 11:14 |
| marxjohnson | although you should still take the usual precautions of connecting to the net, firewall etc ;-) | 11:15 |
| jonsaint | is it right in me saying that viruses for microsoft stuff cant infect an ubuntu machine? or am i wrong? | 11:15 |
| marxjohnson | yes | 11:15 |
| marxjohnson | I suppose they could potentially execute under WINE, but that's unlikely to do much damange | 11:16 |
| jonsaint | so ubuntu is a really good system then? | 11:16 |
| marxjohnson | yes :-) | 11:16 |
| mash909 | will try fsck (digging out a rescue disk) | 11:16 |
| jonsaint | sorry for all these mad questions, im new to all this | 11:16 |
| marxjohnson | no that's cool, glad to help | 11:16 |
| jonsaint | thanks again. chat soon. | 11:17 |
| marxjohnson | dont be lulled in to thinking Ubuntu is invincible though | 11:17 |
| jonsaint | i wont | 11:17 |

| cps | he says he's not ready to get an ipv6 tunnel though | 11:30 |
| * MartijnVdS has native V6 on his DSL | 11:32 | |
| cps | BT doesn't do IPv6 :| | 11:37 |
| cps | which is why I suggested to my stepdad to have an IPv6 tunnel | 11:37 |
| AlanBell | how does an ipv6 tunnel actually help? | 11:42 |
| cps | packing up now, preston's the next stop | 11:45 |

| * HazRPG stares at box that arrived in the post today | 12:21 | |
| HazRPG | Woot! My first ever graze xD | 12:21 |
| oly | hi, wonder if someone can help me with a nautilus problem | 12:32 |
| oly | for a while now when ever i use a ssh bookmark nautilus freezes | 12:32 |
| MartijnVdS | maybe it's trying to ask for a password? | 12:32 |
| oly | i can connect fine from terminal | 12:32 |
| oly | its only nautilus freezing | 12:32 |
| oly | you would think, but if it is there is no password box | 12:33 |
| oly | i tried removing the known_hosts file so the keys where all reset | 12:33 |
| oly | just to rule that out | 12:33 |
| oly | if it was just the password box it should not freeze nautilus completely | 12:33 |
| oly | as in i have to kill it to be able to continue using it | 12:34 |
| oly | found some stuff on the net seems other have had the problem | 12:34 |
| oly | but no solution that works :/ | 12:34 |
| MartijnVdS | oly: are there any errors/messages in ~/.xsession-errors about it? | 12:35 |
| HazRPG | not sure if this is good advise, but you could try running "sudo nautilus" and rule out the whole password thing | 12:35 |
| MartijnVdS | HazRPG: no! | 12:35 |
| MartijnVdS | HazRPG: he's having ssh problems, not root problems :) | 12:35 |
| oly | nope i just did a tail on that file and nothing new is added | 12:38 |
| MartijnVdS | what happens if you "pkill nautilus && nautilus" (i.e. run it in a terminal) | 12:38 |
| MartijnVdS | or just: | 12:38 |
| MartijnVdS | nautilus ssh://some.host/path | 12:38 |
| MartijnVdS | (if something is failing it'll probably be gvfsd though..) | 12:39 |
| MartijnVdS | (try killing that one ... it should respawn as needed) | 12:39 |
| oly | gvfs was my guess but that does not help fix it | 12:39 |
| oly | trying the nautilus from command line | 12:39 |
| oly | though one problem i noticed is nautilus tend to detach from the terminal | 12:40 |
| oly | well no errors from terminal and nautilus does not open if i specify the url | 12:42 |
| oly | trying to reinstall gvfs but dont expect that to fix it | 12:42 |
| oly | fixed it \o/ | 12:47 |
| oly | and found a bug i guess | 12:47 |
| oly | seems nautilus-bzr is the cause | 12:48 |
| oly | going to reinstall just to confirm | 12:48 |
| oly | well thats definately the problem reported it as a bug for now | 13:00 |
| oly | luckly i normally use bzr from command line anyway | 13:00 |
| MartijnVdS | \o/ | 13:01 |
| MartijnVdS | nice find though | 13:02 |
| oly | yeah i am pleased, makes it a bit easyer to drag files to remote locations :p | 13:03 |
| MartijnVdS | I guess I'm too used to the command line for that | 13:06 |
| MartijnVdS | I use it with cifs though | 13:06 |
| MartijnVdS | to drag files to/from my NAS | 13:06 |
| livingdaylight | greetings | 13:07 |
| MartijnVdS | \o ldl | 13:08 |
| livingdaylight | Anyone familiar with Calibre? I dropped a pdf file to convert to epub. It took a good 15 minutes to convert. Obviously, depends on the size but is that normal? | 13:09 |
| livingdaylight | MartijnVdS, hi, was it you who told me about Calibre a few days ago? | 13:09 |
| MartijnVdS | could be | 13:14 |
| livingdaylight | was concerned as there 's no (reassuring) progress bar; just a whirrling round and round circle, as if stuck, but did eventually finish | 13:14 |
| MartijnVdS | the guy who makes it is very cool & responsive, you could suggest a progress bar feature :) | 13:15 |
| MartijnVdS | I think the podcast people had him on once | 13:15 |
| livingdaylight | ok | 13:15 |
| MartijnVdS | (though that might have been Outlaws) | 13:15 |
| dutchie | nope, it was uupc | 13:16 |
| jonsaint | hi all. i seem to have forgot how to convet then burn a film. im using devede to convert it and using k3b to burn. but thing is when using devede to convert, its converting to an iso file and i cant burn it. anyone got ideas plz?? | 13:39 |
| MartijnVdS | jonsaint: right-click the iso, select the option to burn it to dvd? | 13:40 |
| MartijnVdS | jonsaint: (right-click in the file browser) | 13:40 |
| jonsaint | and that will work?? | 13:40 |
| MartijnVdS | why wouldn't it? | 13:40 |
| MartijnVdS | it's a prepared image of a DVD-Video, isn't it? | 13:41 |
| MartijnVdS | "Burn image to disc" will, well.. burn that image to a disc | 13:41 |
| jonsaint | just trying it now lol | 13:41 |

| MartijnVdS | gord: well it fixes the "SMS bug" that I've never seen, apparently | 14:03 |

| popey | yeah! | 14:10 |
| bigcalm | popey: what happened to my hut? Looks like an explosion of boxes | 14:10 |

| bigcalm | I was trying to be neat and organised | 14:11 |
| popey | then a thing blew up just next to the wall | 14:11 |
| popey | i tried to rebuild a bit | 14:11 |
| popey | at least put the walls back | 14:11 |
| popey | but it was quite an explosion | 14:11 |

| bigcalm | Silly minecraft | 14:14 |
| gord | wait, i forgot i have no food in the house again. i should go shopping but whenever i go shopping hungry i just buy tasty things that empty out of the house in two days. its a vicious cycle | 14:14 |
| czajkowski | gord: online shopping get it delievered | 14:14 |
| czajkowski | hmm wonder do I have time to make some bread | 14:15 |
| gord | i'v never tried online grocery shopping, does it cost much more? | 14:15 |
| czajkowski | gord: if you book in advance anywhere between 3-5 quid | 14:15 |
| gord | huh, fairly reasonable | 14:15 |
| czajkowski | means you also get more as well to your house | 14:15 |
| czajkowski | gord: I find tesco pretty good | 14:15 |
| czajkowski | hmm no flour :( | 14:16 |
| MartijnVdS | pfuh, who needs flour! | 14:17 |
| bigcalm | popey: does each user have a different spawn point? | 14:17 |
| bigcalm | MartijnVdS: florists | 14:17 |
| bigcalm | czajkowski: *hugs* | 14:17 |
| MartijnVdS | bigcalm: good point | 14:17 |
| czajkowski | MartijnVdS: I do to make bread or now I want pancakes | 14:17 |
| MartijnVdS | bigcalm: (actually, in Dutch, "flour" and "flower" are the same word: "bloem") | 14:17 |
| czajkowski | with sugar and lemo on them | 14:18 |
| MartijnVdS | time for some shopping then :) | 14:18 |
| MartijnVdS | don't forget buckwheat -- pancakes with buckwheat + beer = best pancakes | 14:18 |

| popey | it doesnt take long | 14:33 |

| popey | need more MB reall | 14:33 |
| popey | *really | 14:33 |

| gord | interesting | 14:35 |
| gord | "ubuntu, we officially support commander keen!" | 14:35 |
| directhex | gord, explain? | 14:36 |
| directhex | gord, oh, run a DOS app & it spawns dosbox? | 14:36 |
| gord | i'm not sure | 14:36 |
| gord | i doubt it will just spawn dosbox though | 14:37 |

| * MartijnVdS just listened to Talk Talk 8-) | 15:01 | |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: crap thing is, this happens around once a month, or more, and my dad is just about thinking about a different isp. | 15:02 |
| MooDoo | *sigh* | 15:02 |
| brobostigon | yeah, | 15:03 |
| brobostigon | i might suggest an isp that does native ipv6 to my dad. afterall, he does like things to last and be future proof, and getting ipv6 will do that. | 15:05 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: is it widely used yet? | 15:11 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: most software works perfectly now within ipv6, a few sites have ipv6 versions innlcuding freenode and gogle and facebook, however there arent many isp's that offer native ipv6 connectivity yet. | 15:12 |

| Azelphur | hmm, just tried wiring up my mythtv box to my new TV, it has VGA In, and right next to it it has a 3.5mm jack for "PC/HDMI Audio" so I stuck a 3.5mm cable from the pc speaker, into that | 15:21 |
| Azelphur | but no sound :( | 15:21 |
| Azelphur | new fangled technology how does it work. | 15:21 |
| dwatkins | HDMI should do audio itself. | 15:22 |
| Azelphur | I'm plugged in on VGA | 15:22 |
| MartijnVdS | dwatkins: it should, but if you're using a DVI-to-HDMI plug you need that jack | 15:22 |
| ali1234 | not if it comes from a DVI-D port | 15:22 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: use the green "audio out" hole | 15:22 |
| Azelphur | MartijnVdS: on the PC? I did | 15:22 |
| MartijnVdS | not the "PC/HDMI Audio" one | 15:23 |
| MartijnVdS | I think? | 15:23 |
| MartijnVdS | oh wait that's on your monitor end? | 15:23 |
| Azelphur | yup | 15:23 |
| Azelphur | PC/HDMI Audio on the TV | 15:23 |
| Azelphur | Speaker socket on the PC (Green) | 15:23 |
| MartijnVdS | does audio work at all (if you connect something directly to the green PC port) | 15:23 |
| Azelphur | yea, if I go in via composite (yellow red and white cables) it works | 15:24 |
| Azelphur | but no hd resolution there obviously :P | 15:24 |
| MartijnVdS | maybe it's some config thingy on the TV? | 15:24 |
| MartijnVdS | "Use this audio port when using VGA" | 15:24 |
| Azelphur | maybe | 15:25 |
| Azelphur | I'll have a nose | 15:25 |
| MartijnVdS | good luck :) | 15:25 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 15:25 |
| bigcalm | popey: dutchie: if you're bored, you could finish off my tap in the sky | 15:58 |
| * dutchie has probability to do | 15:59 | |
| MartijnVdS | dutchie: .. probably :) | 15:59 |
| livingdaylight | MartijnVdS, can one read epub or mobi files from Calibre on the Desktop? | 16:17 |
| Pendulum | livingdaylight: you should be able to | 16:19 |
| Pendulum | (at least you could last time I tried Calibre) | 16:19 |
| MartijnVdS | yes, in calibre right-click on it | 16:19 |
| MartijnVdS | then "View" | 16:19 |
| livingdaylight | can't figure out how | 16:19 |
| MartijnVdS | or something | 16:19 |

| Azelphur | It seems to have bad time zones, it's saying people are posting in the future :P | 16:44 |
| dwatkins | Which commandline tool, Azelphur, Twidge? | 17:16 |
| MartijnVdS | dwatkins: curl 8-) | 17:21 |
| dwatkins | MartijnVdS: that would be hard with OAITH, but possible. I gather there are perl modules for it. | 17:21 |
| MartijnVdS | dwatkins: nah you just point it at your browser's cookie jar and use the "normal" web frontend? | 17:21 |
| dwatkins | MartijnVdS: aha, I see | 17:22 |
| dwatkins | What if you're running a perl script on a server with no browser, though... lynx? | 17:22 |
| MartijnVdS | could work | 17:22 |
| MartijnVdS | or you could copy your cookie jar over first | 17:23 |
| dwatkins | yeah, interesting idea. | 17:24 |
| * MartijnVdS browses discogs.com a bit | 17:26 | |

| pr0ph3t | I have a problem with sound, well kinda; sound works fine but the ubuntu startup sound doesn' play anymore, or the log out one, just some event sounds seem to work, what can I do to check what is wrong? | 18:08 |
| MartijnVdS | haha.. T-Mobile is giving away free pay-as-you-go SIMs with €30 on them.. they're the crappiest network of .nl (worst signal, etc.) | 18:08 |

| MichealH | Oh :P | 18:27 |
| AlanBell | I hacked my pastebinit to point to paste.ubuntu.com by default | 18:27 |
| DJones | Or http://pastebin.ubuntu-uk.org | 18:28 |
| AlanBell | when I say hacked, I mean configured | 18:29 |
| AlanBell | edit ~.pastebinit.xml and set your default pastebin | 18:29 |
| brobostigon | piping goodness into pastebinit, very useful. | 18:29 |
| AlanBell | http://paste.ubuntu.com/556900/ | 18:30 |
| AlanBell | yo dawg, we heard you liked pastebin so we are using pastebinit to pastebin your .pastebinit.xml | 18:31 |
| DJones | Anyway, its not as if pastebin.com is a major part of the internet, I'd be more worried if facebook.com was down, imagine the complaints then :) | 18:35 |
| brobostigon | how or microsoft.com or apple.com or google.* | 18:36 |
| brobostigon | rm how | 18:36 |

| brobostigon | our* | 18:39 |
| MartijnVdS | brobostigon: your home, sure | 18:39 |
| MartijnVdS | brobostigon: but there are loads of other people, with broken routers | 18:39 |
| brobostigon | MartijnVdS: very true, but this is only to highlight,that some things to be fixed, to be able to cope with the future. | 18:40 |
| * brobostigon hugs his wrt54gl | 18:42 | |
| * MartijnVdS hugs fritzbox | 18:42 | |
| DJones | Ugh. I wish I knew what was broken with a laptop, great up to 10.04, but neither 10.10 or 11.04 will boot, I can get to grub, but it just goes to black screen, all I get are the coloured dots scrolling past then nothing. No login screen. 10.10 would work if I selected the kernel for 10.04 that hadn't been removed on upgrade, but otherwise, after 10.04 its become unusuable | 19:24 |
| ali1234 | probably KMS | 19:28 |
| DJones | Possibly, its something I've had to fix on other machines, bit of a bugger when I can't get past the black screen with anything yet | 19:29 |
| Myrtti | nvidia? | 19:35 |
| DJones | Yep | 19:35 |
| DJones | Oldish laptop that I'm playing with | 19:36 |
| dwatkins | Have you tried upgrading the BIOS, DJones? Just a guess. | 19:38 |
| DJones | I've not tried, could be an answer, I doubt its ever been upgraded in its life | 19:39 |
| Myrtti | probably need a kernel parameter at boot | 19:40 |
| Myrtti | to bypass nouveau | 19:40 |
| DJones | I'm going to try a clean install from the alternate cd to see how that works just in case there's a conflict from earlier versions | 19:43 |
| gord | DJones, delete the xorg.conf - should boot up with nouvou - that'll tell you if its kms or not | 19:44 |
| gord | actually i'm not sure if that uses nvidia or not, you might just have to uninstall the nvidia package | 19:45 |
| DJones | gord: I'll try that if I can get into it, I guess its boot with a cd time :) | 19:45 |
| gord | DJones, recovery console doesn't work? | 19:46 |
| DJones | Nope, not so far | 19:48 |
| DJones | give me a minute, i'll see were it gets to | 19:49 |
| DJones | fsck from util-linux-ng 2.12.2 and then dead, no lights flickering or any signs of life | 19:50 |

| daubers | Oooooh | 21:25 |
| * daubers notices unity-place-applications has turned up in his update list | 21:25 | |
| daubers | Now if only whatever was blocking it being installed would turn up in the repo too | 21:26 |

| Compacthack | Evening all, wondering if someone could help, trying to put 10.10 on my Macbook air, Can't boot these things from usb driv e (don't have cdrom) so copy usb install disk to a partition on the ssd (disk0s3), when I get into the 10.10 install it tells me because the installation medium is on /dev/sda3 it can't modify or create any of the partitions on that drive, and I can't go any further. | 21:44 |
| brobostigon | yay, gingerbread on my htc dream, :) | 21:48 |
| AlanBell | Compacthack: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/How%20to%20install%20Ubuntu%20on%20MacBook%20Air%20using%20live%20CD | 21:49 |
| Azelphur | brobostigon: cyanogen? :D | 21:53 |
| Azelphur | been running cyanogen since day 1 :P | 21:53 |
| Compacthack | I can boot into ubuntu with refit, can change the partitions with gparted, so I've created my swap and ext4 for /. but in the install I have to set the ext4 partition as / and the installer tells me it has to unmount sda3 (my install medium) to set /. | 21:54 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: based on cyanogenmod git, but not built by them. | 21:57 |
| Azelphur | brobostigon: I see :) | 22:01 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: as there atmoment, isnt an official release not nightlie or otherwise of gingerbread for htc dream. | 22:02 |
| Azelphur | ah, cyanogen 7? | 22:03 |
| brobostigon | yes. | 22:03 |
| Azelphur | I had a go at doing that on my G2 but it didn't work so well | 22:03 |
| Azelphur | so I went back to 6 | 22:03 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: it seems to be going ok, most of the basics are working, i did have to adw though, | 22:04 |
| Azelphur | :) | 22:04 |
| brobostigon | gallery is so smooth. | 22:04 |
| brobostigon | its looking really smooth overall. letś try the camera and wifi and bluetooth. | 22:06 |
| balor | popey: get out of the house then | 22:06 |
| balor | popey: Or, if it's in your pants, I don't want to hear | 22:07 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: however without that clever cm config program. :( | 22:10 |
| Azelphur | :( | 22:10 |

| MonsterKiller | Hey. ubuntu is telling me the irc 'services' file doesnt exist when i cd into its directory then to ./services but its there when i do ls. http://paste.monsterprojects.org/mpbehhhhjlhhwej | 22:37 |
| stuphi | MonsterKiller: is it executable? | 22:39 |
| MonsterKiller | should be :/ ill try | 22:39 |
| stuphi | What does ls -l give? | 22:40 |
| MonsterKiller | -rwxrwxrwx 3 rob rob 1160791 Jan 23 01:21 services | 22:40 |
| MonsterKiller | so it should be executable? | 22:41 |
| stuphi | What about the directory it is in? | 22:41 |
| MonsterKiller | drwxr-xr-x 7 rob rob 4096 Jan 23 01:21 services | 22:42 |
| stuphi | Try the file command on the services file. | 22:42 |
| MonsterKiller | -bash: ./services: is a directory | 22:43 |
| MonsterKiller | ? | 22:45 |
| stuphi | A directory is not executable, so is that your problem? Change into that directory and see what is there. | 22:46 |
| MonsterKiller | what do you mean? | 22:47 |
| stuphi | what does 'file ~/services/services' give? | 22:49 |
| MonsterKiller | /home/rob/services/services: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, not stripped | 22:49 |
| stuphi | So it is an executable file. Does it match the system you are trying to run it on? BTW, I am near the limit of my skills here. :-) | 22:51 |
| AlanBell | where did it come from? could it be evil? | 22:52 |
| MonsterKiller | lol | 22:52 |
| AlanBell | e.g. it is running, and what it does is print to stdout "file does not exist" | 22:52 |
| stuphi | It says that it uses shared libs. Do you have those libs? There is a command that will list the libs that an executable file needs, but I can't remember what it is just now. | 22:53 |
| MonsterKiller | if i make it no executable then it says permision denied but if it do make it executable then it says its not there | 22:54 |
| MonsterKiller | :/ | 22:54 |
| AlanBell | could that partition be mounted noexec? | 22:54 |
| MonsterKiller | shouldnt be | 22:54 |
| AlanBell | just type mount | 22:54 |
| MonsterKiller | /dev/simfs on / type reiserfs (rw,usrquota,grpquota) | 22:55 |
| AlanBell | nothing mounted on /home ? | 22:55 |
| stuphi | try ldd ~./services/services | 22:55 |
| MonsterKiller | ldd: ~./services/services: No such file or directory | 22:56 |
| stuphi | try ldd ~/services/services | 22:57 |
| stuphi | :-) | 22:57 |
| MonsterKiller | 'not a dynamic executable | 22:57 |
| MonsterKiller | ' | 22:57 |
| MonsterKiller | :/ | 22:57 |
| stuphi | Are you running a 64bit kernel? | 22:58 |
| MonsterKiller | 32 | 22:58 |
| stuphi | That will probably be the problem. | 22:58 |
| MonsterKiller | o.O | 22:59 |
| stuphi | It is an ELF 64-bit executable. | 22:59 |
| MonsterKiller | :/ | 22:59 |
| MonsterKiller | is there a way around it? | 23:00 |
| stuphi | Recompile the executable or the kernel. :-) | 23:00 |
| stuphi | That probably does not help you very much now though. | 23:01 |
| MonsterKiller | hmm | 23:01 |
| stuphi | I know that there are tricks to get 32bit code to work on a 64bit kernel, but I don't think the other way round is possible. | 23:03 |
| stuphi | First thing to try would be to go to where the program came from and see if they supply a 32bit version, or the source code. | 23:04 |
| stuphi | Alternativly, do you have a 64bit machine you can run it on? | 23:05 |
| Myrtti | my irc is broken, its been quiet for 9 minutes | 23:19 |
| MonsterKiller | lol | 23:19 |
| gord | you can't run 64-bit code on a 32-bit system. | 23:21 |
| bigcalm | popey: say when you're ready | 23:25 |
| popey | ok | 23:25 |
| popey | where were you bigcalm ? | 23:25 |
| bigcalm | I was at the end of my track | 23:25 |

| popey | reconnect now and go to the house | 23:25 |
| bigcalm | The sun is setting | 23:26 |
| gord | fyi, minecraft is tonnes better with voip :) mumble is quick and easy to set up too | 23:26 |
| popey | :) | 23:26 |
| bigcalm | I've put everything into a chest | 23:28 |
| gord | its always fun to hear someone calmly talking about something or other and then yell something you can't make out, always a creeper ;) | 23:28 |
| bigcalm | Hehe | 23:29 |
| popey | its back | 23:29 |
| bigcalm | I'm in the sittingroom with my GF watching telly, so the sound is off | 23:29 |
| popey | ditto | 23:30 |
| gord | i can't play with the sound off... need to know if i'm about to be skeletoned | 23:30 |
| bigcalm | popey: you're watching telly with my GF? | 23:30 |
| popey | i should plug headphones on | 23:30 |
| gord | i mean i guess technically you could play with sound off, its just, for my sanities sake i play with sound on | 23:32 |
