| superfly | Kilos: did you get that link I gave you? | 08:06 |

| superfly | https://forge.betavine.net/projects/vodafonemobilec/ | 08:07 |
| Kilos | went off to check balance on fone | 08:07 |
| Kilos | ty will go see i still got 135m | 08:08 |
| Kilos | i went to that one before | 08:08 |
| Kilos | http://www.betavine.net/bvportal/community/linux | 08:09 |
| Kilos | looks good | 08:09 |
| Kilos | also this modem is a alcatel tct modem | 08:10 |
| superfly | it's about 1.5 megs to download | 08:10 |
| Kilos | thats great i will get it ty superfly | 08:10 |
| superfly | Kilos: don't forget to use GDebi to install it | 08:12 |
| Kilos | i am not sure what to actually download from there superfly | 08:14 |
| Kilos | i use gdebi for most stuff that doesnt come from repos | 08:15 |
| Kilos | does | 08:15 |
| superfly | https://forge.betavine.net/frs/download.php/626/vodafone-mobile-connect_2.25.01-1_all.deb | 08:15 |
| Kilos | ty | 08:15 |
| * tumbleweed would recommend sticking to network-manager where possible, but yes that has always been rather good | 08:17 | |
| superfly | tumbleweed: nm doesn't show you your balance, AFAIK, vodafone mobile connect does | 08:18 |
| tumbleweed | oh, that's rather cool | 08:18 |
| tumbleweed | someone needs to write a decent USSD tool for modemmanager | 08:19 |
| superfly | I think it's pretty much supposed to be a copy of the Windows software | 08:19 |
| Kilos | dependancy ozerocdoff. must i get that from them too superfly . its not in synaptic | 08:21 |
| tumbleweed | have you seen http://www.nerve.org.za/mdma/ (for windows?) | 08:21 |
| superfly | Kilos: yes | 08:21 |
| Kilos | or go the link i gave you and get their repo | 08:21 |
| tumbleweed | he seems keen to do something sane for modemmanager | 08:21 |
| superfly | Kilos: https://forge.betavine.net/frs/download.php/538/ozerocdoff_0.4-2_i386.deb | 08:22 |
| Kilos | oh great ty superfly . the other necessary files came outa the repos | 08:29 |
| Kilos | all python | 08:29 |
| superfly | yup | 08:29 |

| Kilos | hehe | 08:37 |
| superfly | Kilos: USB does not work the same as serial or parallel ports | 08:40 |
| superfly | there are no port numbers | 08:40 |
| Kilos | maybe i gotta disconnect the nm first | 08:41 |
| Kilos- | nope keeps saying could not open port errno 2 | 08:51 |
| === Kilos- is now known as kilos | ||
| kilos | murphy back again. as jy kan sukkel sal jy | 08:52 |

| |3o|3 | Lovely weather? | 09:58 |
| inetpro | is there something wrong with za.archive.ubuntu.com this morning? Downloads seem to be slow on this side. But maybe it's just a local issue. | 10:00 |

| tumbleweed | inetpro: mirror.ac.za's debian archive has been broken for over a week. I don't have high expectations from them atm | 10:36 |
| inetpro | hmm.... | 10:37 |
| drubin | it seems SF has taken all their time and effort | 10:40 |
| drubin | Symmetria: are the mirrors going to be fixed by next week for the release? | 10:41 |
| Kilos | ah superfly . my vodafone package doesnt find any devices. thats why it asked for port number | 13:39 |
| Kilos | no option of device settings, only custom settings | 13:40 |
| Kilos | its an alcatel modem. maybe thats why | 13:47 |
| Kilos | me very unhappy to see attendance so low here | 14:13 |

| tumbleweed | queery: My proposal to sponsor it has been seconded. | 15:53 |
| queery | awesome | 15:53 |
| queery | thanx guys | 15:53 |
| marcog | drubin: well, they still have to pitch :) | 15:55 |
| marcog | but i think this is the benefit of having it a public location | 15:55 |
| marcog | we're also still bugging the leg committee to announce it | 15:56 |
| queery | drubin, remind me later this week to send out reminders | 15:56 |
| queery | im so going to forget | 15:56 |
| tumbleweed | marcog: it was announced today | 15:57 |
| marcog | kk | 15:58 |
| drubin | tumbleweed: who where? the ml? | 16:00 |
| drubin | we should announce it on clug-annouce | 16:00 |
| tumbleweed | drubin: http://lists.leg.uct.ac.za/pipermail/leg-announce/2011-April/000024.html | 16:00 |
| tumbleweed | drubin/anyone: Send me a message or post to clug-announce, I'll approve / forward it | 16:01 |
| marcog | tumbleweed: jan is pretty sloppy lol | 16:01 |
| drubin | marcog: please make the annoucement you always do it with such motivation and awesomeness? :) | 16:02 |
| marcog | drubin: um wat, i do? | 16:03 |
| drubin | marcog: Yip you do | 16:03 |
| drubin | look how many people you got to come to geek dinners | 16:03 |
| drubin | </end_that_topic_at_that_> | 16:03 |
| marcog | drubin: i never sent that announcement | 16:04 |
| drubin | marcog: but you could send this one | 16:35 |
| drubin | ;-p | 16:35 |
| marcog | drubin: i'm ahead of you ;) | 16:35 |
| marcog | drubin: http://pastebin.com/M2E1uMKS lg? | 16:37 |
| tumbleweed | I don't think "details on facebook" is sufficient | 16:38 |
| tumbleweed | link to something publically accessible | 16:39 |
| drubin | loco.ubuntu.com is public | 16:40 |
| tumbleweed | indeed | 16:40 |
| tumbleweed | also actually put some of the details in the message, otherwise poeple who don't like braais will assume it's a braai | 16:40 |
| tumbleweed | I mentioned it to jason and he said "meh, braai", I had to say "it isn't this time" | 16:41 |
| drubin | http://ubuntu-za.org/news/2011/04/01/ubuntu-1104-natty-release-party-western-cape | 16:41 |
| drubin | you can link to those as well | 16:41 |
| drubin | it is a resturant | 16:41 |
| drubin | with hotdogs and bar and being able to order other food. | 16:42 |
| drubin | queery: ^ we can order other stuff as well right? | 16:42 |
| marcog | yeah i mentioned that in the opening paragraph | 16:42 |
| queery | well.. | 16:43 |
| queery | I org that there wil be hot dogs | 16:43 |
| queery | and there will be a cash bar | 16:44 |
| queery | but the kitchen will prob only be open till like 1 if at all | 16:44 |
| marcog | tumbleweed: http://pastebin.com/TYxbcSBP ? | 16:44 |
| tumbleweed | marcog: you're welcome to still include a facebook link if you want. Looks good. | 16:45 |
| marcog | tumbleweed: the news post links to fb | 16:45 |
| marcog | tumbleweed: reason i was going with fb, is i want to be more n00b-friendly | 16:45 |
| drubin | marcog: include the fb link | 16:46 |
| marcog | sent | 16:46 |
| marcog | mk, caught it in time :P | 16:46 |
| tumbleweed | marcog: not very facebook-shunner friendly, though | 16:46 |
| marcog | gmail undo ftw | 16:46 |
| marcog | tumbleweed: yeah i realise, didn't think at first that you'd need to be logged in to view it | 16:47 |
| marcog | which i find silly | 16:47 |
| tumbleweed | it's how facebook has always been | 16:47 |
| marcog | i realise | 16:47 |
| marcog | doesn't make it any less silly :P | 16:47 |
| tumbleweed | indeed | 16:47 |
| Symmetria | http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/07/16/broadcom_ceo_charges/ <=== proof that IT geeks party harder than anyone else :P | 16:48 |
| marcog | sent | 16:48 |
| drubin | Symmetria: Speaking of geeks... are we going to have an updated mirror? | 16:51 |
| tumbleweed | marcog: approved | 16:52 |
| marcog | ta | 16:52 |
| superfly | drubin: I think Symmetria is avoiding us :-P | 16:53 |
| drubin | no I know he is :) | 16:53 |
| tumbleweed | given the high international packet loss this afternoon, I don't blame him | 16:54 |
| nuvolari | hmm. any pitivi guru's around? | 19:59 |
| nuvolari | I need to turn a clip 90° clock-wise | 20:00 |

| * nlsthzn waves | 22:31 | |
| superfly | Evening nlsthzn | 22:38 |
| nlsthzn | superfly: Hiya :) | 22:42 |
| drubin | marcog: Hey you still have the banners right? can you please bring them to the release party on sat? | 22:43 |
| tumbleweed | they're by my desk | 22:44 |
| drubin | tumbleweed: awesome please remember them ;-p mostly for the photos and stuff | 22:51 |
| nlsthzn | the latest release caught us out in the UAE... so we haven't got anything planned... but hopefully 11.10 will have a proper release celebration here | 23:04 |
| drubin | nlsthzn: it is not too late :) | 23:08 |
| marcog | drubin: i'd tend to agree with nlsthzn that it is | 23:09 |
| marcog | rather make the first one a reasonable size than dissapoint the few who come | 23:09 |
| nlsthzn | there is a general meeting the 4th so the guys going will use it as a little get togerher... but the next one we hope to have a bit bigger scale... higher profile :) | 23:10 |
