| nhaines | rww: Not just for that, but for historical reasons as well. A lot of programs have C: hardcoded. | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| nhaines | I'm running SuSE 9.3 on my secondary system here, temporarily. | 00:24 |
| nhaines | Natty alpha 2 didn't work out so hot so it was a good opportunity. But man, so many duplicate programs over 5 CDs. :) | 00:25 |
| DarkwingDuck | nhaines: still an issue with a black screen on install? | 01:30 |
| nhaines | DarkwingDuck: issue with gnome-panel doesn't run in Classic Mode. | 01:57 |

| akk | Unless you're trying to follow the route on google earth or something. :) | 02:49 |
| MarkDude | lol | 02:50 |
| MarkDude | If you take cal train also- you could have it all the way | 02:50 |
| akk | They have wifi now? | 02:50 |
| akk | (and they're whining about how they have to raise fares AGAIN?) | 02:51 |
| MarkDude | I guess not | 02:51 |
| * MarkDude googled it :) | 02:51 | |
| MarkDude | Still feels like I am from the future | 02:55 |
| MarkDude | quite a few people are using the net now, and it is better than most conferences I have been to | 02:56 |
| nhaines | lfitz: Good evening. :) | 04:03 |

| jono | DarkwingDuck, cool! | 19:13 |
| jono | DarkwingDuck, are you in the bay area? | 19:13 |

| jono | ahhh | 19:14 |
| jono | this isnt a job | 19:14 |
| jono | it is developer testing :-) | 19:14 |
| DarkwingDuck | ahhh that. I wish I could when I heard about it. | 19:14 |
| DarkwingDuck | jono: you going to be at scale? | 19:14 |
| nUboon2Age | i'm a beginner in python jono, Java used to be my primary, i'm a JCP and used to work for Sun in TCK stuff but i took a loooooong break and am rusty right now. Also a LOT of C coding back when, Perl, Turbo Pascal w/ Objects, C++, Basic, DOS batch scripting, assembly, etc., etc., etc., | 19:14 |
| jono | DarkwingDuck, not sure yet, I might be in the studio | 19:15 |
| nUboon2Age | Software Enginneer who took a looooooong break. :-) | 19:15 |
| DarkwingDuck | jono: awesome! I've started playing bass again | 19:15 |
| DarkwingDuck | jono: have you played with SL4A yet? | 19:15 |
| jono | DarkwingDuck, nice! | 19:15 |
| jono | DarkwingDuck, SL4A? | 19:16 |
| nUboon2Age | oh, and i play guitar, bass, keyboard, sing and a bit of drums jono. :-) | 19:16 |
| akk | scripting languages for Android | 19:16 |
| DarkwingDuck | Scripting Language for Android | 19:16 |
| jono | nUboon2Age, and would you be free on Tues at 2pm? | 19:16 |
| jedahan | pleia2, ahh nextspace is right near me cool | 19:16 |
| nUboon2Age | yes jono | 19:16 |
| akk | DarkwingDuck: Have you? I keep wanting to but haven't had time yet. | 19:16 |
| pleia2 | jedahan: huh, which one? the SF one is about 2 blocks from me | 19:16 |
| jono | nUboon2Age, do you think you could get into San Francisco for that time? | 19:16 |
| nUboon2Age | yes jono | 19:17 |
| jono | nUboon2Age, woo! | 19:17 |
| jono | awesome | 19:17 |
| DarkwingDuck | akk: I was poking at it yesterday. There is a big writeup in Linux Journal about it. | 19:17 |
| jedahan | pleia2, I am staying at a hostel in the TenderLoin. Well closet to tenderknob but yeah, thats in the financial district right? | 19:17 |
| jono | nUboon2Age, I am just going to confirm a location and I will get back to you :-) | 19:17 |
| jedahan | its like a 5 minute bike ride | 19:17 |
| nUboon2Age | ty jedahan | 19:17 |
| nUboon2Age | ty jono | 19:17 |
| pleia2 | jedahan: yep, nextspace is in the financial district :) | 19:17 |
| jamiedmattingly | anyone else here in or near north bay that wouldnt mind coordinating for an ubuntu hour here? | 19:17 |
| akk | DarkwingDuck: Yeah, saw that, need to work through it! Though I gather people can't run your scripts unless they also have SL4A and python? | 19:17 |
| nUboon2Age | hopefully Caltrain accessible jono | 19:17 |
| nUboon2Age | or not too far from. | 19:17 |
| jono | nUboon2Age, no worries | 19:18 |
| DarkwingDuck | akk: but, if you build those dependancies into the apk it *should* work. | 19:18 |
| nUboon2Age | i broke my arm recently so i have to get everywhere by mass transit and walking | 19:18 |
| nUboon2Age | i can't ride my bike even. :-/ | 19:18 |
| akk | DarkwingDuck: Oh, cool -- that definitely makes it more attractive. | 19:18 |
| DarkwingDuck | akk: Although, it would bloat the size of the APK | 19:19 |
| akk | DarkwingDuck: I wonder how much the apk would compare to a java one, though? Any idea? | 19:19 |
| DarkwingDuck | I don't know... | 19:20 |
| DarkwingDuck | akk: I think what I'll do is take a RSS reader and port it to python and compare the two | 19:20 |
| akk | I'm also surprised you (apparently) can't make a web app into an apk ... apps made of html and javascript. | 19:20 |
| jamiedmattingly | am i seriously the only one here from northbay | 19:20 |
| jamiedmattingly | ?? | 19:20 |
| pleia2 | jamiedmattingly: might also want to try the mailing list, there are 200+ folks on that :) | 19:21 |
| akk | DarkwingDuck: Oh, good idea, I should try porting my feedreader to python (except I'm not sure they have enough APIs in AL4A python). | 19:21 |
| akk | DarkwingDuck: I'd love to hear what you think after you try it. | 19:21 |
| DarkwingDuck | akk: I'm going to play with it this month pretty deeply | 19:22 |
| DarkwingDuck | akk: we can compare notes at Scale :) | 19:22 |
| jdeslip | akk: You can basically make an web-app into an apk - just use one webview | 19:22 |
| akk | DarkwingDuck: Great! Looking forward to it. | 19:22 |
| jamiedmattingly | how do i do mailing list/ | 19:22 |
| jamiedmattingly | ? | 19:23 |
| akk | jdeslip: I know how to make a java app with a webview plus pages, but that requires java and eclipse. | 19:23 |
| akk | (well, not eclipse, but some compilation environment, anyway) | 19:23 |
| jdeslip | akk: Well ... not much java ;) If you do all the heaving lifting in javascript. Just need java to create the webview. | 19:24 |
| akk | Sure, I know, just would be nice to avoid all that extra mechanism when a web viewer is already built in to android. | 19:24 |
| akk | It means anyone else who works on the project also has to have java and the SDKs set up on their machines. | 19:25 |
| akk | jamiedmattingly: There are a couple of concord/antioch people on http://shallowsky.com/maps/geeknic/ (when you said north bay earlier I thought you meant Marin). | 19:28 |
| jamiedmattingly | thanks akk. northbay is anything past vallejo like fairfield vacaville and such concord and antioch are east bay which is still easier than palo for me | 19:30 |
| akk | jamiedmattingly: I was just thinking they looked close enough that they might come to a vallejo meeting. | 19:32 |
| jamiedmattingly | i agree | 19:32 |
| jamiedmattingly | i sent an email to mailing list so hopefully if i did it right we will read about it tommorow | 19:33 |
| pleia2 | jamiedmattingly: you did it right :) | 19:34 |
| akk | You did it right -- I got it already. | 19:34 |
| jamiedmattingly | wow i did something right lol first time for everything :) | 19:35 |
| nUboon2Age | Ubuntu Hour @ Palo Alto TONIGHT! 7pm Tandoori Oven (2 doors down from Antonio's Nut House). Details and RSVP: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/650/detail/ pleia2, aaditya, akk, crashsystems, crashsystems1, jledbetter, jamiedmattingly, jamiedmattingly, jono, pleia2, kdub, jtatum, | 19:35 |
| pleia2 | can't make it, have company flying in this evening so I'll be doing lots of last minute tidying around the condo | 19:36 |
| jamiedmattingly | i didnt get an email is it because i sent it? | 19:36 |
| pleia2 | jamiedmattingly: yes, gmail eats them | 19:36 |
| iheartubuntu | how is your cr48 liz? are you using it now? | 19:36 |
| pleia2 | (very annoying) | 19:36 |
| pleia2 | iheartubuntu: it's fun :) not using it now because I'm (supposed to be) working and it's not flexible enough for that | 19:37 |
| iheartubuntu | so how would you do irc on it? | 19:37 |
| pleia2 | iheartubuntu: if you switch it into dev mode you can get to a terminal, which you can ssh from | 19:38 |
| iheartubuntu | i mean how would a common user do irc :) | 19:38 |
| iheartubuntu | go to a website? | 19:38 |
| pleia2 | probably would have to use webchat | 19:38 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 19:38 |
| nUboon2Age | okay pleia2, we'll miss you. :-( we love you. :-) | 19:39 |
| pleia2 | nUboon2Age: oh! updating identica/twitter now | 19:39 |
| nUboon2Age | ubuntu love. group hug pleia2 | 19:39 |
| iheartubuntu | updated: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/Scale9x | 19:39 |

| jedahan | just so happens nextspace is free today. and has a 4pm happy hour | 21:34 |
| jedahan | thanks pleia2 | 21:34 |
| pleia2 | sweet | 21:34 |
| pleia2 | you're welcome :) | 21:34 |
| jedahan | soooo easy living in SF with no plans | 21:34 |
| jedahan | and keeping busy | 21:34 |
| jamiedmattingly | just out of curiosity what is next space for? | 21:40 |
| pleia2 | it's an "office" that work from home types, entrepreneurs, etc can use so they don't get lonely had sort of have "co-workers" | 21:41 |
| pleia2 | s/had/and | 21:41 |
| pleia2 | they also have conference rooms you can rent (nice for virtual companies who need to have real life meetings) | 21:42 |
| DarkwingDuck | Okay... Gingerbread on my Droid is smooth | 22:05 |
| jamiedmattingly | which droid do you have DarkwingDuck? | 22:06 |
| DarkwingDuck | Droid 1 | 22:07 |
| DarkwingDuck | I had a droid 2 but, I ended up giving to a buddy of mine who needed a phone. | 22:07 |
| jamiedmattingly | i have droid incredible how did you get gingerbread on your droid? | 22:08 |
| DarkwingDuck | It's rooted. I know most of the underground dev/hackers that do the custom ROMs. | 22:08 |
| DarkwingDuck | There are two good Gingerbread ROMs out there for the D1 | 22:09 |
| DarkwingDuck | LiquidGingerbread and CyanogenMod 7 | 22:09 |
| DarkwingDuck | Actually, I just realized that the Droid 1 has the same OMAP board as the n900 so, I should be able to get Kubuntu-Mobile installed on teh Droid 1 | 22:10 |
| jamiedmattingly | how can you update your android phone fromm 2.2 to 2.3? do you know DarkwingDuck? | 22:12 |
| DarkwingDuck | jamiedmattingly: Is it rooted? | 22:13 |
| jamiedmattingly | i dont think so | 22:13 |
| DarkwingDuck | That would be the first step. I'm not sure if there is a DInc ROM for 2.3 yet. | 22:13 |
| DarkwingDuck | jamiedmattingly: http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/21/droid-incredible-owners-receive-one-of-the-first-really-polished-gingerbread-roms/ | 22:15 |
| DarkwingDuck | You can get it on your DInc but, GPS and Video recording have issues still | 22:16 |
| kdub_ | DarkwingDuck: you put kubuntu mobile on the n900? | 22:21 |
| DarkwingDuck | kdub_: One of the Devs for Kubuntu-Mobile did | 22:22 |
| DarkwingDuck | I'm going to work on getting it on the Droid 1... It shouldn't have any hardware issues except maybe CDMA | 22:22 |
| DarkwingDuck | Because Verizon uses CDMA and the rest of the world uses GMS | 22:22 |
| DarkwingDuck | *GSM | 22:22 |
| DarkwingDuck | So, I'll have to see | 22:23 |
| * kdub_ has an n900, that would be cool | 22:23 | |
| kdub_ | but maemo is already a debian system, i might just leave it at "eh, close enough" ;-) | 22:24 |
| iheartubuntu | so you wouldnt be able to make calls? | 22:30 |
| === jono_ is now known as jono | ||
| === jono is now known as Guest37019 | ||
| DarkwingDuck | kdub_: gemme a sec | 22:33 |
| DarkwingDuck | kdub_: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/ARM/n900/ | 22:34 |
| kdub_ | DarkwingDuck: dang, pretty cool | 22:55 |
| DarkwingDuck | kdub_: oh yeah. | 22:58 |
| * kdub_ has always been one to take linux on his phone over a phone that can actually call people :) | 22:59 | |
| DarkwingDuck | hehehe | 23:00 |
| * akk has a phone that can call people, and a separate device running linux | 23:02 | |
| akk | though I admit it would be neat to have both in the same box | 23:02 |
| kdub_ | the n900 does, right out of the box | 23:08 |
| kdub_ | i hope meego turns out more or less the same way | 23:08 |
