ali1234what's a ppuk?02:00
HazRPGI just bought a kindle... from tescos!02:01
ali1234how much and can you use it without an amazon account?02:02
HazRPGit was £150 with 3g+wifi, but they had the one with wifi for £10502:02
HazRPGand I shall found out soon enough!02:03
ali1234oh, you bought on line?02:05
ali1234i thought you went to 24 hour tescos and bought one cash :)02:05
HazRPGI did!02:05
HazRPGthat was in-store price!02:05
HazRPGI'd say it was a bargain for getting it straight in your hands02:05
HazRPGI didn't even plan to get one, was there for other things02:06
ali1234ah cool02:06
HazRPGsaved me the ~£6 P&P price02:06
HazRPGwow, I'm amazed at how thin this thing actually is!02:07
HazRPGargh! holy cow!02:07
HazRPGI thought that was the sticker!02:07
HazRPGwith the whole "step 1 charge your kindle"02:07
HazRPGthat was before I even turned it on, etc02:07
HazRPGso I did... I pluged it on02:08
HazRPGand looked away for a moment... and then looked back was about to pear the sticker... and noticed the screen changed!02:08
ali1234it's eink02:08
ali1234it only uses power when the display is changing02:08
ali1234nifty stuff02:08
HazRPGoh yeah, I know... but I never realised it was this clear!02:09
ali1234you are making me want one02:09
ali1234but i don't like to buy stuff from amazon02:09
HazRPGheh, I got mine from tescos :P02:09
ali1234yeah02:09
ali1234they probably sell them at a loss anyway02:09
ali1234but i mean books to put on it :)02:09
HazRPG:P02:10
ali1234especially given that ebooks cost the same as regular books02:10
HazRPGI'm planning on buying ebooks from other places ;)02:12
HazRPGali1234: dude!!!!02:13
HazRPGali1234: you don't *need* to register this to amazon!02:13
ali1234ok ok, it's not that exciting :)02:13
HazRPGif you buy it >from< amazon, it gets set to you with your account already on it02:13
HazRPGsent*02:13
HazRPGbut this way... you don't have to!02:13
ali1234so when you turn it on02:13
ali1234it doesn't force you to enter your details02:14
ali1234the sony one does02:14
ali1234can you use the free global 3g without an amazon account though?02:14
HazRPGI'm reading the startup guide... but it says "at any point you can click home and leave this guide"02:15
HazRPGso I'm going to read through, see what it all says and just click on the home - but plan NOT putting my amazon details in unless I really must02:15
ali1234considering getting the wifi only version02:16
ali1234don't really even need wifi tbh02:17
ali1234usb is fine02:17
ali1234which gen is it?02:18
ali1234ah only v3 has the 3g option02:19
HazRPGyeah, v302:25
HazRPGali1234: you'll be pleased to know, if you buy from tescos... you don't need to set your account :D02:32
ali1234cool02:32
HazRPGaww, but the browser won't let you use it unless you do :/02:34
HazRPGeverything else seems to work though02:35
HazRPGali1234: hmm, this thing is pretty cool though03:04
HazRPGI have a feeling, I'm going to need bigger discs03:09
HazRPGI've coasted around 3 discs now :/03:09
ubuntuuk-planet[Phil Bull] Desktop Help - http://philbull.livejournal.com/59039.html03:11
HazRPGthis feels wrong... k3b seems to work so much better than brasero!03:42
HazRPGI'm a gnome guy... kde stuff shouldn't be on here >_<03:43
ali1234brasero has always sucked tho03:56
HazRPGali1234: what do you use?04:58
ali1234i don't use cds04:58
HazRPGhmm, the 'send "I am alive" ping to canonical' app on software centre... does anyone use it?04:59
HazRPGas far as I can see, its for showing canonical how many ubuntu users there are out there...04:59
ali1234i don't use software centre either...04:59
HazRPGcanonical-census is the name of the application04:59
ali1234it's for OEMs05:00
HazRPGah05:50
HazRPGthat makes more sense05:50

HazRPGali1234: ooo, apparently they've "jailbroke" the kindle 308:46
MartijnVdSFor some reason my DVB card doesn't always execute tuning commands properly :|08:46
HazRPGMartijnVdS: typical :P08:46
MartijnVdSso I have to tune 2-3 times before I get a signal08:47
MartijnVdS(to the same channel, mind!)08:47
MartijnVdSHazRPG: typical? why? :)08:47

MartijnVdSpopey: it's nice and sunny here as well, but it's still only ~5-6°C08:47

HazRPGMartijnVdS: manufacturers not sticking to standards or making them do funny things08:48
popeywonder why middle mouse click on one mac opens a new tab, middle mouse click on the other opens the widget thing08:48
MartijnVdSHazRPG: the same dish/switch works fine from my TV tuner08:48
MartijnVdSHazRPG: it must be something on my DVB-S2 card08:48
HazRPGah08:48

alexcockellHi all..10:45
MartijnVdS\o10:57
HazRPGhowdy everyone11:17
HazRPGhmm... recalls someone saying they had a kindle...11:18
MartijnVdSLots of people have one11:19
* MartijnVdS has a Sony PRS-60011:19
MartijnVdSwhich reminds me.. I need to charge it11:19

MattJOn a Saturday!11:24
MartijnVdSXMPP \o/11:24
HazRPGMartijnVdS: hmm, just wondering ... because I'm not sure if I should register mine with amazon.com/.co.uk11:27
MartijnVdSI never registered mine with Sony11:32
HazRPGguessing you don't buy books from sony either then11:33
MartijnVdSnah, most e-book stores won't let me buy from them :(11:33
MartijnVdSA few Dutch stores will thoguh11:34
MartijnVdSthough11:34
popeyHazRPG: i bought mine before they sold them direct over here, and registered it with amazon.com11:35
popeybut recently they made an option where you can 'move' it to .co.uk, so i did that11:35
popeynot that i actually use my kindle now I have an ipad11:35
alexcockellGot a new big mug delivered today...11:36
alexcockell"Don't ask me till I've had my coffee"... 570ml..11:36
HazRPGpopey: surely the kindle wins over ipad for book reading though...11:36
HazRPGbattery-life wise...11:36
alexcockellYeah - I'm sure it does..11:36
alexcockellnow - if there was an open version of the Kindle - I'd be interested..11:37
HazRPGalexcockell: nice :)11:37
popeyHazRPG: i never read for 10 hours straight11:37
popeyand i never worry about the battery on the ipad11:37
popeyif I was going on holiday I might take the kindle, but for day-to-day use, I dont use it anymore11:37
HazRPGalexcockell: erm... kindle 1 & 2 have been known to have ubuntu installed on them ;)11:37
HazRPGkindle 3 has just recently (feb?) found an exploit to run unsigned code11:38
HazRPGso that could be next :)11:38
HazRPGpopey: clearly you haven't been on long flights before :P11:38
popeyi have11:38
alexcockellYeah - but do you need to jailbreak it first?11:38
popeyand i dont read for 10 hours straight11:38
popeyalso I said "day to day" use11:39
HazRPGalexcockell: yeah, you do, but the jailbreak is easy to remove traces of11:39
popeyi dont fly 10 hours every day11:39
alexcockellS'pose so far, I've bought kit from Linux Emporium...11:39
HazRPGalexcockell: since the kindle uses linux (or a unix variant??) as its core anyways11:39
alexcockellAhh - OK11:39
alexcockellOf course - only way they have such good power management..11:40
alexcockellUnlike the latest way MS bollocked up loads of machines...11:40
dwatkinsThe Kindle's screen is also passive, which is much better for the eyes than the iPad11:40
directhexkindle is linux11:40
HazRPGpopey: ah, sorry I missed that11:40
alexcockellW7SP1... switch on autotuning on TCP/IP - and not warn anyone11:40
alexcockellMy brother was hit by it... was helping him ID the issue..11:40
HazRPGpopey: didn't realise the ipad had 10 hour battery life, that's pretty amazing if it does :O11:41
directhexkindle battery is about a month, with the wifi turned off11:41
popeyit does11:41
directhex(e-ink uses no power when the display isn't changing)11:41
HazRPGdirecthex: I wasn't sure, I knew it was a unix variant - thanks for the confirmation :)11:42
HazRPGalexcockell: yeah, the e-ink screen is the main reason for the good battery life (1 month!) - think of it like an etch-e-sketch11:42
alexcockellYeah - I sawe a friend's Kindle..11:44
HazRPGdirecthex: you'll have seen the recent kindle 3 hack then?11:44
directhexHazRPG, can't honestly say i care11:44
HazRPGdirecthex: I was instantly amused when I read it this morning :)11:44
HazRPGdirecthex: ah... hmm... I had it down that ya liked reading about this stuff...11:45
directhexit's the wife's, it does what she wants11:46
directhexthe rest is a distraction11:46
HazRPGoh, I just meant reading about hacks, exploits, etc11:46
directhexonly ones relevant to my interests11:48
HazRPGah ok, fair enough11:49
brobostigonmorning everyone.12:02
alexcockellBBC News, Sky News - looks like NATO will be taking the gloves off soon...12:05
* MartijnVdS starts "F-19 Stealth Fighter" in dosbox12:08
MartijnVdSIt's how I learned Lybian cities back in the 90s :|12:09
BigRedShaha12:09
BigRedSI've not yet seen anyone report on any offensive non-US presence of Libya's coast. I know we've got a friage or something hanging around, but is there a carrier or anythign with which to enforce a no-fly zone?12:10
BigRedSI suppose there's always Italy...12:10
danfishour carriers have no planes anymore12:11
MartijnVdSBigRedS: Italy, Greece12:11
MartijnVdSBigRedS: there's a US base on Sicily12:11
BigRedSAh yeah. It just seems (to me) to feel quite an empty threat unless there's a bunch of warships off the coast12:12
MartijnVdSalso, Dutch navy12:13
danfishwe have an agreement to share the French carrier, but it's only maaged to set sail once this year :(12:13
BigRedSAh, are the dutch there?12:13
MartijnVdSBigRedS: 3 people + 1 helicopter were caught a few weeks ago12:13
MartijnVdSpeople have been released, helicopter not12:14
jpdsBigRedS: UK bases on Cyprus.12:14
BigRedSYeah, the lynx. I was just expecting much more of an in-your-face show of force from nato12:15
alexcockellOh.. that is coming..12:15
BigRedSNah, by now it surely makes sense to not bother with any sailing, if none's been done yet, and just use european bases12:16
danfishunfortunately, the RAF is now a mess of aged tornados and typhoon's which noone can fly or maintain.12:16
BigRedSthe point would be to have the demonstration as a "look what we can do" rather than a "we've finally got round to doing what we wanted to do a few weeks back"12:17
BigRedSdanfish: yeah, I was amused at the announcement that it'd be a tornado sqn deployed first12:17
HazRPGbrobostigon: morning :)12:20
brobostigonHazRPG: good morning, :)12:20
danfishalternatively we could send our new type destroyer...but the anti-aircraft missiles havn't been installed yet12:22

MartijnVdSand oil12:26
BigRedSdanfish: That is the English way :)12:27
MartijnVdSBigRedS: especially if you get the queen to write the letter12:27
BigRedSI've an entirely different view of the Queen since I started following Queen_UK on twitter :)12:28
danfishBigRedS: only in recent times - in the past we'd have gone in with the Imperial Army and just taken over12:28
BigRedSNah, in the past the threat of the RN would've been a reasonable one12:29
BigRedSrather than a punchline12:29
danfishintroduced the notion of tea parties and democracy then left ;)12:29
BigRedShaha!12:29
danfishtbf, 2-3 years ago we could have mounted an air blockade on our own12:30

phonex01hello guys14:00
phonex01i found the problem with mon0: -1 in aircrack14:01
phonex01there a simple patching for that i did it and now im compiling compat-wireless14:01
phonex01but i have question here14:01
phonex01i have keneral 2.6.35-27 and compat-wireless i use is 2.6.38-3 ?14:03
phonex01so is there any problem with this ?14:03
BigRedSphonex01: From a quick look at their site, should be good14:09
phonex01really ?14:10
BigRedSthough I can't work out how you'd get that version string, they seem to use dates14:10
ubuntuuk-planet[Andy Loughran] FPTP versus AV - http://zrmt.com/2011/03/19/fptp-versus-av/14:11

gingwhat does ./configure do ?14:35
gingor atleast what is it meant to do?14:35
DJones!compile | ging Have a look at this, about a third of the way down explains it14:36
lubotu3ging Have a look at this, about a third of the way down explains it: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)14:36
gingdo i need to install it first/14:36
dutchieno14:36
dutchiethe configure script sets up the Makefile with all the right paths for libraries and installation14:37
dutchie(usually)14:37
DJones!checkinstall14:37
lubotu3checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!14:37
DJonesging: If you're compiling something from source, it might be worth looking at the Checkinstall info as it could make it easier to remove something afterwards as it installs from a .deb file14:38
suprengrTrying to view a webcam [Dartmouth live] and Firefox states "QuickTime does not support the current MPEG-4 setting. Go to Setup->Video&Image->Advanced->MPEG-4 and set Video object type to 'Simple' for QuickTime to work"  [Chromium is less than helpful with settings]  no alternatives in Firefox work.  Any ideas?14:43
* AlanBell looks up train times to clapham14:43
gingi dont understand why ./configure doesnt work then, if i type than into a terminal with current directiory if what i want to compile that should work right?14:43
BigRedSconfigure normally tells you what's wrong when it doesn't work14:44
gingno it say no such file or directory14:46
gingdo i need to install configure ?14:46
BigRedSare you trying to run it in the right directory?14:46
BigRedSyou need to be at the root of the source14:47
BigRedSusually, untar the tarball, cd into the new dir and you're there14:47
BigRedSsometimes you need to be in a subdirectory of it14:47
gingthat's what i've done14:47
BigRedSbut you need to be in the directory containing the 'configure' script14:47
gingoh so configure isnt a program ?14:48
BigRedSit's a script14:48
BigRedSthe distinction is fuzzy14:48
BigRedSbut it's in the source you downloaded, not something installed on your PC14:48
BigRedSthe './' tells bash that it's looking for something in the current directory ('.')14:48
BigRedSso './configure' tells bash to execute the file named 'configure' in the current directory14:49
gingwell there is no script called configure in this dir, there is 1 called config.h14:49
BigRedSis there a readme?14:49
gingyeah there is a readme but there is nothing in there about it14:52
gingi think it must be missing the config script14:53
dutchieging: it might not have one. is there a Makefile already?14:58
gingdutchie: there is a make file but it fails15:06
dutchiefails how?15:08
gingepically15:15
ginghttp://pastebin.com/zs6jQS3K15:15

MartijnVdS!ask | bigcalm16:38

bigcalmWondering how to make it persistant16:39
MartijnVdSdon't "add HTML", but add DOM nodes16:40
MartijnVdSthey should show up16:40

shaunoheh, that was pretty nifty17:13
suprengrwas thinking of putting 'home' directory on separate partition to use on other versions.  do I copy current home/... or myusername/ [under home] to that partition I wonder?17:25
shaunoI'd tend to move /home itself17:36
duvelhedzMove /home and be sure to modify your fstab to mount by uuid17:36
shauno(also, the word 'copy' makes me tweak; if you copy /home to a new filesystem, mount it over your old /home, the old contents of /home will still use up disk space but won't be accessible at all)17:37
ali1234if you move /home itself to a new partition then mount that partition on /home you will have /home/home17:40
ali1234which is pobably not what you want17:40

brunogirinhi all, trying to configure a synaptics touchpad properly but now that ubuntu doesn't have an xorg.conf anymore, I'm struggling to do that via udev rules, in particular I can't seem to get the SHMConfig option to work, can anybody help?20:30
dutchiei probably could if it was actual simple harmonic motion20:35
dutchienot so good at udev rules as at differential equations though20:35
directhexyou can still use an xorg.conf for some things20:36
penguin42brunogirin: You can create an xorg.conf or fraction there of20:37
brunogirinpenguin42: so for instance, I could create an xorg.conf with just the input device configuration? where does it go? /etc?20:38
penguin42brunogirin: Yes you could - just create an /etc/X11/xorg.conf I think20:38
penguin42brunogirin: Ah sorry, it checks /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d20:38
brunogirinpenguin42: and there is a file called 50-synaptics.conf in there, which is probably the one I want to modify, thanks :-)20:40
penguin42no prob20:40
MartijnVdSyou don't want to modify files in /usr/20:41
MartijnVdSthey get overwritten on upgrade20:41
brunogirinMartijnVdS: thanks for the advice, where should I create the correct config files so that they don't get overwritten on upgrade?20:42
directhexxorg.conf is fine.20:42
directhexconsider that every nvidia-glx or fglrx user has one20:43
brunogirindirecthex: ok, so if I create one using the method detailed here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config and then remove everything I don't want to override, I should be ok?20:44
directhexmore or less.20:45
brunogirinwill try right now, thanks20:46
=== RaycisCharles is now known as HaveYouSeen
duvelhedzI never thought the English would be singing Allez Les Bleus!!20:55
brunogirindirecthex: if I create a partial xorg.conf in /etc/X11 XOrg fails to start... should I create a xorg.conf.d directory and put my partial bits in there?20:55
directhexbrunogirin, too partial, perhaps? what does xorg.0.log say?20:55
brunogirindirecthex: ah ok, it tells me that the option I added (SHMConfig) is not valid in that section, I'll investigate further so see where it should go20:57
MartijnVdSshmconfig has been obsolete for a while now20:58
MartijnVdSYou can set settings using xinput20:58
MartijnVdSxinput list20:59
MartijnVdSthen xinput list-props id_of_device_here20:59
MartijnVdSand to set:20:59
MartijnVdSxinput set-prop id_here property_id new_value21:00
brunogirinMartijnVdS: ok, I was hoping to use SHMConfig to be able to run synclient -m in order to see what the different areas of the touchpad were so that I can set BottomEdge properly as I have a touchpad with integrated buttons21:07
brunogirinbesides, how can I then set the preferences in a way that will work when rebooted? can I do that in udev rules?21:08
MartijnVdSyou can see/set all that using xinput21:10
MartijnVdSwell21:10
MartijnVdSdon't know about the persistence bit21:10

DaveMorrisok, I'm not sure if this device exists but I was looking for a device which appears as a FAt32 drive to the machine/device it's plugged into, but it infact pulls the data down via nfs/dlna22:09
gordDaveMorris, because fat32 is a map of blocks i don't think such a thing could reasonably exist22:13
DaveMorrisin theory it could if the nfs share is FAT3222:13
DaveMorrisdoes it make sense what I'm asking for?22:13
DavieyDaveMorris, You are looking for a virtual device which presents itself as a FAT32 disk, but is really an NFS share?22:15
DaveMorrisyeha22:15
gordDaveMorris, and what happens when windows 98 attempts to defrag the drive?22:15
DaveMorrisit's to enable my non DLNA blu-ray/tv/dvd players to become DLNA22:16
DaveMorristhey are able to play files found on a USB stick fine22:16

DavieyDave2, hmm - seems ideal, http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/samygo/index.php?title=Mounting_an_CIFS/SAMBA_share_on_a_USB_device_to_bypass_DLNA22:19
Davieyi imagine you could swap smb -> NFS.22:20
DaveMorrisjust found that22:20
Davieyheh22:20
DaveMorrislooks like they are telnet'ing to the TV22:20
DaveMorrisand mounting it like a standard nfs mount22:20
Davieyhmm22:23
DaveMorrisinitial research seems it's not easily done, or where it cna be done it's expensive22:24
DavieyDaveMorris, Hang on, so you want a physical usb device that is really network mounted storage, but presented as vfat?22:24
DaveMorrisyes22:24
DavieyDaveMorris, I would say you need a linux device which allows you to convert a usb socket from host to device... they are pretty common.. I seem to remember my N810 could do it.22:26
DaveMorrisyeah, thats what I was thinking but it's prob not worth the money to do it.22:27
DavieyDaveMorris, I wonder if it would be easier to do from a network block device, perhaps iscsi22:30
DavieyDaveMorris, I would like to know if you do bother, not that i need it, just interesting.22:31

marxjohnsonAlanBell this is what I'm trying to establish23:01
marxjohnsonAha, browsershots.org doesn't appear to be on GMT, so that's answered it for me, and it's working (aside from a small DST issue)23:03
AlanBellhttp://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/wp-content/themes/uupc4/countdown.php looks good to me :)23:09
