[09:29] <Kilos> fools
[09:29] <acherv> Kilos: ?
[09:30] <Kilos> lets think a bit. i used cell c about 16 months ago
[09:31] <Kilos> i think i used a windows pc and they gave me all the settings and then the network maneger on ubuntu was easy after that
[09:31] <Kilos> manager
[09:32] <Kilos> or you can try the huwaai help line
[09:32] <Kilos> huawuai
[09:32] <acherv> ok

[09:33] <Kilos> connected
[09:34] <Kilos> what actually happens when you plug the fone into the pc
[09:34] <Kilos> does the os see it?
[09:35] <Kilos> maybe as a storage device
[09:42] <acherv> yes i connected now but i use wondows
[09:42] <acherv> windows sorry
[09:58] <Kilos> ok and the fone works
[09:59] <Kilos> you get online?
[09:59] <Kilos> now take it to your ubuntu machine
[10:00] <Kilos> it is ubuntu hey?
[10:15] <Kilos> lo smorar 
[10:15] <superfly> Kilos: he's using a Cell C USB modem, not a phone
[10:16] <Kilos> oh ty superfly  do they also sometimes only be seen as storage devices till they set up
[10:16] <Kilos> i know little about modems
[10:17] <Kilos> just know my boets one and ians one work here np
[10:17] <superfly> Kilos: the last time I plugged in a Cell C USB modem it just worked
[10:17] <Kilos> yeah so they should
[10:20] <Kilos> has he been on before superfly  or maybe just installed ubuntu and doesnt know how to activate the network manager
[10:21] <superfly> Kilos: he's not the first person I've heard having an issue with the cell c modem
[10:21] <superfly> I think they changed the model
[10:21] <Kilos> eish
[10:23] <superfly> "master oogway" hrm, where is that from... ah! Kung Fu Panda
[10:25] <Kilos> hiya confluency 
[10:30] <confluency> Hi, Kilos.
[10:32] <nlsthzn-work> greetings all...
[10:33] <nlsthzn-work> the UAE is finally going a bit more official with there loco... so they know have #ubuntu-za channel :).... 
[10:34] <nlsthzn-work> ... and we (they) would like to know more about bots, especially awesome ones like maaz... any links or resources available?
[10:34] <tumbleweed> nlsthzn-work: ibid.omnia.za.net
[10:36] <nlsthzn-work> tumbleweed: thank you :)
[10:42] <tumbleweed> marcog: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2011-April/032890.html
[10:43] <marcog> wow
[10:43] <marcog> any general response to that? i dont feel like reading through all the replies
[10:43] <tumbleweed> lots of responses
[10:45] <tumbleweed> general agreement, with niggles
[10:46] <marcog> as in, keep unity?
[10:46] <queery> so would it be better to just stick with GNOME for this release?
[10:46]  * nlsthzn-work likes the unity
[10:46] <tumbleweed> marcog: yes
[10:47] <tumbleweed> queery: GNOME is still available from gdm
[10:47] <marcog> i don't mind a slightly broken release, there should be reason to keep people on LTS releases
[10:47] <queery> I know, but i don't have time now to try and figure out bugs, so is unity going to be too time consuming for me to install with?
[10:48] <queery> isn't 04 the LTS
[10:48] <tumbleweed> 04 is LTS on even years
[10:48] <queery>  oh ok
[10:49] <queery> that's why im confused
[10:49] <tumbleweed> unity is cool, but it does break some stuff and has been crashing a bit
[10:49] <queery> hmm
[10:49] <queery> ill try it after I handed in my thesis...
[11:10] <nlsthzn-work> ironically enough I has many less crashes a few updates back than now in natty :/
[11:10] <nlsthzn-work> *had
[11:12] <tumbleweed> that's normal :) stability comes in waves
[11:22] <nlsthzn-work> tumbleweed: we needs a tsunami me thinks :)
[11:37] <Kilos> hehe hiya nlsthzn-work 
[11:37] <Kilos> hi tumbleweed 
[11:37] <tumbleweed> hi
[11:44] <nlsthzn-work> hey uncle Kilos 
[12:09] <nuvolari> hi guys, anyone using 11.04 yet? if so, is it stable enough to trust for a production laptop+
[12:09]  * nuvolari is overdue, still on 10.04
[12:09] <nlsthzn-work> nuvolari: nope
[12:10] <nuvolari> meh ok
[12:10] <nuvolari> thanks nlsthzn-work
[12:10] <nlsthzn-work> have been using since alpha and I have suffered through it
[12:10] <nlsthzn-work> but it can be frustrating when it crashes right when you are on your busiest
[13:32] <Kilos> nuvolari, havent you got 10.10 yet?
[13:32] <Kilos> its great
[13:32] <nuvolari> Kilos: nope
[13:32] <Kilos> methinks better than 10.04
[13:32] <nuvolari> did not have the time to upgrade yet oom
[13:32] <Kilos> eish
[13:38]  * superfly always upgrades
[13:39]  * nlsthzn-work seems to always install the OS before it is released, and move on once it is stable :p
[13:45] <nlsthzn-work> http://freedomdreams.co.uk/code/beard/ :)
[14:00] <queery> one way to get your face out there
[14:04] <nlsthzn-work> queery: lol
[14:27] <rodemire> Hallo evryone
[14:27]  * nlsthzn-work waves
[14:28] <rodemire> Is there a way i can download repois from the interenet and use them offline on a PC at home?
[14:28] <rodemire> *repos
[14:29] <nlsthzn-work> rodemire: yes (but I am not sure how...)
[14:31] <rodemire> How do i go about it? I have uncapped broadband at work and i want to update my PC at home, but this is for updates from system updates to apps updates
[15:01] <queery> you can try to use aptoncd
[15:02] <queery> I have only heard of people using it
[15:02] <queery> do you have an ubuntu workstation at work
[15:02] <queery> sorry for the late answer rodemire 
[15:20] <superfly> queery: aptoncd doesn't do what he wants
[15:27] <nlsthzn-work> superfly: I was also thinking aptoncd as I had heard of it before (but couldn't remember the name)... but you say it won't work?
[15:28] <superfly> not for an offline version of the repository
[15:29] <drubin> Why do people email ubuntu-za-owner for support queries?
[15:29] <drubin> make drueben sad
[15:29] <superfly> http://tumbleweed.org.za/2010/10/09/release-party-ubuntu-mirror
[15:30] <superfly> nlsthzn-work, queery, rodemire: ^^^
[15:30] <nlsthzn-work> superfly: oh cool... never actually looked what aptoncd was for... neat but not what was needed...
[15:31] <nlsthzn-work> superfly: awesome... initially I was thinking it is a bit early for the release party :p
[15:36] <nlsthzn-work> home time for IR... cheers all... see you later
[15:39] <queery> that could work too
[15:39] <queery> gege
[15:40] <marcog> drubin: seen something similar before, wish you could silently redirect it
[15:40] <queery> *hehe
[15:41] <queery> and drubin who is drueben?
[16:20] <kodez> afternoon guys. is there an ubuntu launch party planned for Natty Narwhal in Pretoria
[16:20] <queery> yes
[16:21] <queery> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/864/detail/
[19:03] <nuvolari_> :>
[19:03] <nuvolari_> lo
[19:04] <nuvolari_> my patience has been rewarded at last
[19:04] <nuvolari_> lo sdehaan 
[19:06] <nuvolari_> anyone compared OpenOffice and LibreOffice recently?
[19:07] <nuvolari_> LibreOffice feels a lot faster
[19:07] <nuvolari_> from the previous version
[19:07] <nuvolari_> bbiab
