andylockran | any recommendations for a router with a decent range | 01:00 |
andylockran | & good at going through old walls :p | 01:01 |
andylockran | -80 dBm for both wireless APs in the house at the moment, one is downstairs in the conservatory and the next is on the 1st floor in the study - but signal where I am is terrible. We've got the HomePlugs - but ideally want wireless for all our handheld devices (ipad, ipod, android .etc) | 01:02 |
HazRPG | I just thought - based on the website for #ubuntu-uk, I'm the only one in the north of england | 01:03 |
andylockran | if someone could ping me a reply tomorrow that'd be very useful - thanks! | 01:04 |
shauno | aww, the uuk site has (very) mild breakage on mine :( | 01:05 |
HazRPG | shauno: really? | 01:06 |
HazRPG | like where? | 01:06 |
shauno | 'loco directory' doesn't fit in it's box in the header menu, because I've got an enforced minimum font size | 01:06 |
shauno | I did say very mild ;) | 01:07 |
HazRPG | andylockran: btw dude, just get yourself a bigger antenna for your existing router - you'd be surprised how much wonders that will do ya | 01:07 |
shauno | (I'm not exactly blind, but my screen has a silly native resolution; I have to bump the fonts to be able to read) | 01:08 |
HazRPG | shauno: ouch, what resolution are you pumping out of your screen? | 01:09 |
shauno | 1600x1200 | 01:09 |
shauno | in what I believe is 19", possibly 21 | 01:09 |
HazRPG | why not just use 1280x1024 ? | 01:10 |
shauno | because then icons are face-sized | 01:10 |
andylockran | HazRPG: where do you get them from ? | 01:10 |
HazRPG | andylockran: I usually buy off ebay | 01:10 |
HazRPG | shauno: face-sized? Really... how :S? | 01:11 |
HazRPG | my friend has a 19" or so monitor and he runs in 1280x1024 just fine | 01:11 |
andylockran | http://www.belkin.com/support/article/?lid=en&pid=f5d8231-4&aid=5927&scid=221 that's what I've got at the moment... | 01:11 |
shauno | I like the UI to be as skinny as possible; leave the space for things I'm actually using. | 01:11 |
shauno | and since OSX doesn't let me install themes that are a bit more trimmed down (or, themes at all), I just run the monitor native | 01:12 |
HazRPG | andylockran: quick question, can you unscrew the antennas out of your router? | 01:12 |
shauno | oh good lord, it's 17" | 01:12 |
HazRPG | shauno: I have 2x17" monitors - I actually took the tape measure out and checked xD | 01:13 |
shauno | I just had to google the part number | 01:13 |
shauno | 17", 1600 x 1200 at 75 Hz .. so yeah I don't let web pages use 12px fonts ;) | 01:14 |
HazRPG | shauno: I got my monitors from my old college for £10 a piece - so I'm not sure what monitors they are other than DELL that's written on the front - but hey I have a tape measure next to my computer at all times - always comes in handy | 01:15 |
andylockran | HazRPG: I'll run and check... | 01:15 |
HazRPG | wow 1600x1200 native for a 17" monitor seems insane! | 01:15 |
HazRPG | andylockran: cool | 01:15 |
shauno | it's a fantastic monitor. I'll be sad when it dies. | 01:15 |
shauno | crt & weighs more than I do. but it'll sync down far enough to run my amiga on it | 01:16 |
HazRPG | andylockran: the antenna end should look somewhat like this - http://www.more-shop.co.uk/images/medium/DWL-50AT_MED.png | 01:16 |
HazRPG | andylockran: that's assuming its not physically attached, if it is - then you can't simply replace it | 01:16 |
HazRPG | andylockran: but if you can, you can just get yourself a longer antenna, with an extension cord so that you can move it to a more appropriate place | 01:17 |
andylockran | HazRPG: thanks for the tip | 01:18 |
HazRPG | shauno: haha, yeah I think I've got a CRT that supports that sort of resolution too :P | 01:18 |
andylockran | my little bro is asleep in the same room as the router so can't check now. | 01:18 |
andylockran | will do so tomorrow morning. | 01:18 |
HazRPG | andylockran: this is the one I got I think: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/10-dBi-Wireless-WIFI-Booster-Antenna-WLAN-RP-SMA-Stand-/320644926871?pt=UK_Computing_Networking_SM&hash=item4aa7ed4d97#ht_2655wt_1139 | 01:19 |
HazRPG | it looks similar | 01:19 |
andylockran | cheers dude, will have a look tomorrow | 01:20 |
andylockran | night all1 | 01:21 |
andylockran | that's the kind of answers I like. friendly and to the point. love #ubuntu-uk :) | 01:21 |
HazRPG | :P | 01:21 |
HazRPG | andylockran: since yours has 3 ports, you could always just get three of those I linked you to (they're cheap enough) and don't need to use the extension cord it comes with - but you can be a better judge on that one obviously | 01:22 |
HazRPG | andylockran: also, night, hope you can get some better results with the bigger antennas | 01:23 |
HazRPG | andylockran: btw, if your still about - I was just quickly looking through the manuals off the website, and it seems you should be able to replace those antennas :) - glhf (good luck, have fun) | 01:25 |
HazRPG | shauno: still shocked you use it at full native resolution - I would have knocked it down a few | 01:26 |
HazRPG | shauno: surely you should be able to customize your OSX a little bit... | 01:27 |
shauno | you'd be surprised | 01:27 |
HazRPG | shauno: I mean, the dock can be hidden until mouse is at the bottom can't it? | 01:27 |
shauno | oh, yeah I have that hidden | 01:27 |
HazRPG | oh, what's the issue with screen real estate? | 01:28 |
=== MonsterKiller is now known as monsterkiller | ||
HazRPG | thought it would have been just the dock that was in the way | 01:29 |
shauno | I just don't like the UI being so bulky. toolbars, tab bars, everything | 01:29 |
HazRPG | since all windows use a global menu bar at the top doesn't it? | 01:29 |
shauno | I'm still cheesed I can't turn the tab bar off in this irc client. but I managed to edit everything else out of it | 01:29 |
HazRPG | shauno: what client you using? | 01:30 |
shauno | it's called 'colloquy'. not fantastic, but the easiest to abuse I've found yet | 01:30 |
HazRPG | oh, heh I think I know the one you mean | 01:31 |
HazRPG | abuse how? | 01:31 |
shauno | it has a menu entry to hide the tab bar. it hasn't done anything for 3+ years now | 01:31 |
shauno | silly little things like it has a bar at the top of the screen that shows you the topic. constantly. | 01:31 |
shauno | that's gone :) | 01:31 |
HazRPG | shauno: what version of OSX are you using? | 01:38 |
shauno | current, I believe | 01:38 |
shauno | yup, 10.6.6 | 01:38 |
HazRPG | shauno: http://themechanger.sourceforge.net/ | 01:47 |
shauno | yeah, I used to use something similar. gave up on them because it kept breaking OS updates | 01:48 |
HazRPG | ah | 01:48 |
HazRPG | just out of interest, why OSX? | 01:49 |
HazRPG | tempted to order indian take-away food | 01:51 |
shauno | eh, long story. basically I wasn't happy with gnome was, or where it was going | 01:52 |
shauno | and frankly, stuff like having to rebuild nvidia drivers every time there's a kernel update is for the birds | 01:53 |
shauno | I used linux exclusively from slack 3.3 ('96, maybe '97) until apple went intel. then defected. | 01:55 |
HazRPG | shauno: woah, rebuilding drivers? Seriously? | 01:56 |
HazRPG | I can't say I've ever had that issue | 01:56 |
HazRPG | although saying that only been using linux since 2005 | 01:57 |
HazRPG | I couldn't sit and download distros on a 16.5Kbps connection in saudi :/ | 01:57 |
HazRPG | that and sites like sourceforge, etc were blocked because of various software that was on it | 01:58 |
HazRPG | that the government didn't approve of | 01:58 |
HazRPG | so they just blocked the whole site | 01:58 |
shauno | I got my first few from a friend with a uni account. then they started cropping up in books & on magazine covers | 01:59 |
HazRPG | not in saudi :P | 01:59 |
HazRPG | we had a few Mac based mags, but mainly windows based ones | 01:59 |
shauno | eventually I ended up mail ordering them because debian was silly-sized (I think it was 3 disks for potato and 7 for woody) | 02:00 |
HazRPG | was rare to hear the world "linux" over there - except Unix - that was a popular word | 02:00 |
HazRPG | seems a few servers out there still run on Unix | 02:00 |
HazRPG | shauno: really debian was that big back then? | 02:01 |
shauno | they do; mostly systems people are terrified to break | 02:01 |
HazRPG | I know red hat was like 5-6 discs at one point | 02:01 |
HazRPG | we learned how to install it at college lol | 02:01 |
HazRPG | I was shocked to hear my dad said the current project over there is to get the systems from Unix over to Oracle for their databases | 02:02 |
HazRPG | which seems odd as a sentence | 02:02 |
HazRPG | but he's not tech-savvy when it comes to O/S | 02:03 |
HazRPG | he can tell you what hardware he has - and what's good/bad, but operating systems - he still thinkings windows XP is the future lol | 02:03 |
HazRPG | I told dad, that for what he uses his computer for - ubuntu or similar would actually be better for him | 02:04 |
HazRPG | but like I said, hard to get copies of such things over there - plus would be better if I actually installed it for him myself (one day) | 02:04 |
shauno | hm, they don't seem to have anything that old on cdimage.debian.org, but I'm pretty sure it was 3 for potato and 7 for woody (just for binaries) | 02:04 |
shauno | you didn't need all of them, but if you're going to mail order them, it doesn't hurt :) | 02:05 |
HazRPG | oh I don't doubt that dude :P | 02:05 |
HazRPG | I remember red hat was a beast of storage at one point | 02:05 |
shauno | I only ever had redhat on a one-disk install (5.2) | 02:05 |
HazRPG | really? | 02:06 |
HazRPG | I recall having it on 5-6 at college | 02:06 |
shauno | that was one that came with a book; no idea what it looked like retail | 02:06 |
HazRPG | again that was roughly 2004 ish | 02:06 |
shauno | I think this woulda been around 99/2000 | 02:06 |
HazRPG | Red Hat before it became Fedora for the free version use to take up a whole dvd or more | 02:07 |
HazRPG | Fedora still does if I recall :/ | 02:08 |
shauno | heh, pretty much everything does. imagine if ubuntu put the entire repo in the images :) | 02:08 |
shauno | hm, seems mirror.ac.uk is gone. that used to be the easiest way I knew to see how big repos actually were | 02:10 |
shauno | altho they symlink everything to /pool/ now, so not sure that'd work | 02:10 |
shauno | still use ubuntu mind. not on my 'main machine', but on pretty much everything else I can get my hands on | 02:11 |
shauno | still bummed they stole jdub tho. I miss garnome :) | 02:15 |
shauno | 2.30 and I work in the morning. think I'll leave it there. night HazRPG | 02:24 |

* daubers is very tempted to dust off the credit card | 14:24 | |
danfish | TheOpenSourcerer: ha - when we were kids we broke down on the Peripherique towing a caravan. My dad started out all English and apologetic, but after 30mins was swearing his head off at the other drivers. One of my fondest memories as a kid ;) | 14:28 |
TheOpenSourcerer | It's a crazy road really. Too small, too many exits (portes) and just rammed with traffic. | 14:29 |

selinuxium | AlanBell, Favicon from wiki ubuntu.com and ubuntu-uk.org is a different colour... Not sure if this was intended... :) | 14:31 |
diplo | lol, we broke down on there as well danfish | 14:32 |
diplo | Great fun isn't it | 14:32 |
popey | the one at ubuntu-uk.org is right isnt it? | 14:32 |
popey | orange | 14:32 |
diplo | We never used it again after | 14:32 |
popey | wonder where ours came from | 14:33 |
selinuxium | popey, both are orange, the one from wiki.ubuntu.com is the same colour as the oen we use in the ubuntu-uk local team logo... the one on the site is a lighter orange.. | 14:33 |
TheOpenSourcerer | popey: Here: http://ubuntu-uk.org/favicon.ico :-) | 14:34 |
selinuxium | TheOpenSourcerer, :) | 14:34 |
popey | which one is more right? | 14:34 |
TheOpenSourcerer | Sorry - coudn't resist that one. | 14:34 |
danfish | diplo: indeedy | 14:35 |
selinuxium | popey, neither is more wrong either... i just happened to have the tabs open with them next to each other.. | 14:35 |
selinuxium | but the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/favicon.ico is the same colour as the on eused in the loco logo... | 14:36 |
* selinuxium same to have a typing disorder... | 14:36 | |
* selinuxium same??? seems... need sleep... | 14:36 | |
shauno | ubuntu.com, wiki. and loco. all use exactly the same file (the md5sum match). so I'd assume that's the right orange | 14:38 |
selinuxium | shauno ? | 14:38 |
shauno | the favicon are all identical; except uuk's | 14:39 |
popey | ok | 14:39 |

* danfish still can't figure out nested screen sessions :( | 14:51 | |
Laney | ctrl-a goes one screen down | 14:52 |
Laney | then you do the normal shortcut without the ctrl-a and it operates on the inner screen | 14:52 |
popey | thats not what I do | 14:55 |
popey | ctrl+a, a then whatever shortcut gets you the second one | 14:56 |
popey | ctrl+a, a, a then whatever shortcut gets you the third one | 14:56 |
popey | etc | 14:56 |
jpds | Why would you want to put a screen within a screen? | 14:57 |

popey | ditto | 14:57 |
dwatkins | my laptop doesn't stay up, but the machine I ssh into does | 14:57 |

bigcalm | MartijnVdS: ok, maybe not Drupal itself. I'm extending a pre-made theme for a client. The CSS is proving annoying | 15:29 |
MartijnVdS | bigcalm: CSS always is | 15:30 |
MartijnVdS | it's why I do backends, not frontends | 15:30 |
bigcalm | I prefer to do backends as well. Or something really fun with JS. | 15:31 |

winterweaver | so, how do I know if I get a new laptop (Alienware M11X to be specific), that ubuntu will run things everything like it's supposed to. I remember in the past people complaining that it doesnt run the correct fan speeds on some laptops, and sometimes dont shut down hard drives correctly. I dont want to pay a lot of money on a laptop that I'm just gonna kill, cause I use Ubuntu everyday | 15:35 |
danfish | daubers: I was walking in Dorset last year near Bridport - walked round a corner in a quiet valley and tada - there was the original River Cottage | 15:39 |
shauno | every time you mention beekeeping I just want to yell out "I'm covered in bees!". just fyi :) | 15:39 |
daubers | danfish: Yup, they do events there! | 15:40 |
daubers | danfish: I went to the Autumn Fair last year and is was fantastic | 15:40 |
danfish | winterweaver: I suppose the only surefire way is to find a vendor, and ask if you can try a live usb | 15:40 |
danfish | daubers: excellent. Is that the one just accoss the border in Devon? | 15:41 |
winterweaver | true... i've been stalking the forums, the folks that have one dont seem to be complaining, other than the screen card issues. | 15:41 |
