| thumper | oneiric? | 02:57 |
| thumper | really? | 02:57 |
| thumper | what was he smoking | 02:57 |
| thumper | I wanted "orsum octopus" | 02:57 |
| ajmitch_ | thumper: what's great is having to spell oneiric correctly in every changelog for package uploads :) | 03:00 |
| * thumper thinks "one iric" | 03:00 | |
| thumper | close to "one eric" | 03:00 |
| ajmitch_ | it was bad enough seeing people talk about 'drapper' all the time | 03:01 |
| ojwb | ajmitch_: I'm not sure I ever type the distro name myself in the changelog... | 03:03 |
| ajmitch_ | ojwb: it's much better for debian of course | 03:04 |
| ajmitch_ | dch probably does the right thing, but enough people don't use that | 03:04 |
| snail | ojwb: I was going to say that debian solves the release naming problem by not having releases, but debian has been getting much better | 03:05 |
| ojwb | well, I create packages for PPAs at least | 03:05 |
| ojwb | and yes, dch can be made smart about it | 03:06 |
| ajmitch_ | even with debian, packages are generally uploaded to unstable | 03:06 |
| ojwb | snail: despite what people seem to think, the longest gap between debian releases was less than 3 years | 03:11 |
| ojwb | it's basically settled down to around 2 recently, which is the same as the LTS schedule | 03:12 |
| snail | ojwb: yes, there's a nice graph on the wikipedia page. | 03:12 |
| snail | around here, the six monthly release cycle goes down well because people understand fixed schedules | 03:13 |
| ojwb | it's nice for some uses, and painful for others | 03:14 |
| snail | ojwb: indeed | 03:15 |
| ibeardslee | morning | 18:34 |
| karora | evening :-) | 19:04 |
| ajmitch_ | morning | 19:06 |
| ibeardslee | where are you atm? | 19:06 |
| karora | Tonight I'm in Koblenz. | 19:21 |
| karora | Tomorrow night Frankfurt, before I fly home. | 19:22 |
| * karora managed to get a free booth for DAViCal at CeBIT. | 19:22 | |
| ibeardslee | nice | 19:27 |
| ibeardslee | how is the android app coming along? | 19:27 |
| Atamira | mornin | 19:33 |
| karora | ibeardslee: It's good. I put it in the market just before I left, and I have done a few updates since then. | 19:35 |
| karora | At CeBIT I was installing it manually on the phone of anyone who asked. | 19:35 |
| * ajmitch_ should probably get a decent phone sometime soon | 19:35 | |
| * ibeardslee has an android now | 19:36 | |
| ibeardslee | still trying to migrate the iphone 'config' and data to it | 19:37 |
| * ajmitch_ has an antique that barely works | 19:38 | |
| ajmitch_ | not sure which android phone would be best | 19:38 |
| * ibeardslee got a IDEOS off trademe as a 1/2 step towards the Samsung Galaxy S II | 19:39 | |
| ibeardslee | will need to sell the iphone and mac mini | 19:39 |
| ibeardslee | mutter mutter tells you about the $0.30 GST when you go pay for it ;) | 19:42 |
| karora | ajmitch_: Essentially it comes down to budget. If you're cheap, get the Huawei Ideos. If you have a little more money get the smaller Samsung. If price is no object get the Galaxy S, or the new Galaxy Pro (with a keyboard). | 19:42 |
| karora | I have a Nexus One and it still rocks. I've been playing with a few keyboard phones and I think I'm now happier without one, but the Nexus S and the HTC Desire Z seem to do it for a lot of people as well. | 19:43 |
| * karora got the Ideos for his son. | 19:44 | |
| karora | Though $SON doesn't get much use out of it 'cause Dad's always borrowing it for testing :-) | 19:44 |
| * ajmitch_ might look around & see if he can find one | 19:44 | |
| karora | I got it for $279 at Christmas, with a $150 credit on 2 degrees. | 19:45 |
| ibeardslee | ajmitch_: I got mine for <>$160 off trademe .. no sim | 19:46 |
| karora | Price equivalence, huh :-) | 19:46 |
| karora | It's a little underpowered, and the screen is a little small, but by and large it works well. | 19:47 |
| ajmitch_ | yeah, anything would work better than what I currently have :) | 19:47 |
| karora | And it does have a capacitive touch - much nicer to use than the crappy vodafone cheap-ass one. | 19:48 |
| ibeardslee | I do have 'fun' with the onscreen keyboard | 19:48 |
| karora | I've got used to it on the Nexus One, but the Ideos is just that smidgin slower that makes it harder to use. | 19:48 |
| ibeardslee | karora: would be nice to have the new server setup and take you back to the settings already entered if the setup fails | 19:49 |
| ajmitch_ | $299 for the ideos from 2degreesmobile.co.nz | 19:51 |
| ibeardslee | http://www.trademe.co.nz/browse/searchresults.aspx?sort_order=&searchType=0344-9113-&searchString=ideos+u8150&x=0&y=0&searchregion=100&type=Search&redirectFromAll=False&generalSearch_keypresses=5&generalSearch_suggested=11&%3FsupprR=1&z=12 | 19:53 |
| ibeardslee | a bit more variety of price if you already have an vodafone or 2 degress sim | 19:53 |
| ajmitch_ | yeah | 19:53 |
| ajmitch_ | just a prepaid vodafone SIM | 19:54 |
| === ajmitch_ is now known as ajmitch | ||
| karora | ibeardslee: In aCal? Yeah, the configuration stuff does have to change. | 20:06 |
| ibeardslee | karora: yeah .. 4th time entering the data to get a connection is starting to wear a bit thin ;) | 20:08 |
| ibeardslee | "Server did not provide a principal path" ? | 20:09 |
| karora | ibeardslee: You can long-press on a working one to save an XML file onto your SDCard. | 20:10 |
| karora | It will look in the /sdcard/acal folder for such saved configs. | 20:11 |
| karora | ... which is also where it saves them :-) | 20:11 |
| ibeardslee | oh that'll be handy! | 20:12 |
| ibeardslee | hmm maybe I need a saved on first .. that folder doesn't exist | 20:17 |
| ibeardslee | s/on/one/ | 20:17 |
| ibeardslee | karora: do you have sample XML file somewhere? | 20:24 |
| karora | Well, just do all of the settings and save one. | 20:30 |
| karora | It should create the folder the first time you save one. | 20:31 |
| ibeardslee | it doen't seem to save one unless it finds a valid connection | 20:33 |
| hads | I have a Nexus One too, works well. Running 2.3 since a few days back. | 21:27 |
| ajmitch | hads: still getting in some of that pc engines stock this week? | 21:33 |
| hads | ajmitch: It has shipped out from Switzerland on Monday, it might not make it through customs until next week though - hard to say. | 21:36 |
| ajmitch | ok | 21:36 |
| hads | I'll ping you when it's clearing. | 21:36 |
| ajmitch | I should probably order the dsl modem today anyway | 21:36 |
| ojwb | morning | 22:41 |
| hads | Morning | 22:47 |
| ojwb | hmm, both the houses next to us are going on the market | 22:48 |
| * ojwb wonders what he did | 22:48 | |
| ajmitch | ojwb: it was probably the late-night parties | 22:56 |
| ojwb | but i was very tolerant of those | 22:57 |
