InHisNameShould one consider using a laptop with server software running on it ?  probably not .  .    .      .        .00:08
ChinnoDogfor me, yes02:04
InHisNameSo you need to move (physically) the server to various location attachment points to the internet ?  That's not very typical, how so ?02:18

SamuraiAlbagood bacon to all!13:40
InHisNametesting testing15:25
InHisNameBacon man gone already ?15:26
InHisNameany pidgin experts around ?15:29
InHisNameI had something weird happen.15:29
InHisNameOne chatroom I could type in, but when clicking on another room tab, I'd go to it.  Then try to type in it and the typing appeared in the first rooms type space.15:30
InHisNameI finally gave up and quit pidgin and restarted all fine now.15:30
InHisNameThen when rejoining all the rooms, vbox still had all the old conversation from before the shutdown?15:33
InHisNameHow did it do that ?15:33
InHisNameI'd like to know how to start in room and continue with old logs still there ?15:34
rmg51not really possible with pidgin15:56
rmg51you can only show the last saved log15:56
rmg51you can find it under tools/plugins/history15:57
rmg51only way I know15:58
rmg51back to work now15:58
InHisNameI don't have a tools dir that is tools/plugins/history16:11
InHisNameno pidgin refs16:13
rmg51look under buddy list16:23
rmg51you may need to show buddy list16:24
rmg51or right click on the icon on the top panel16:25
rmg51that has plugins16:25
jedijfInHisName: use a bouncer16:51
jedijfInHisName: http://sourceforge.net/projects/znc/16:52
PennBotTitle: ZNC - Advanced IRC Bouncer | Download ZNC - Advanced IRC Bouncer software for free at SourceForge.net (at sourceforge.net)16:53
rmg51znc is in the repos17:17
InHisNamejedijf: looking at link, what is bouncer ?17:32
InHisNameok i c17:33
InHisNameWhat is really strange is #vbox had a long stretch of 3 days.  I ended pidgin.  Waited 2 minutes and started pidgin again.  #vbox retained the 3 days of old conversations.  All the others started fresh and empty.17:35
InHisNameWhat I wanted to know is how to repeat that event with #vbox where it seemed to 'remember' the last three days anyway.17:36
InHisNameNot add another app 'znc' or what ever.  At least not this soon, yet.17:36
rmg51back to history17:40
rmg51as long as it's one big log17:40
InHisNamehow to in pidgin ?17:41
InHisNamepidgin has 'enable logging'   I see I need to check it in EACH chatroom that I want logged.17:43
InHisNameInteresting, #vbox was not checked.  Still not sure how it did that.17:43
rmg51you should only have to enable logging once for all chat rooms17:44
InHisNameIf I exit pidgin, it now will remember the old log for #ubuntu-us-pa  and put it back when it is started even after a reboot ?17:44
rmg51I don't know if it is the same in a vm17:45
InHisNameSeems each room needs separate checking.17:45
InHisNameI'm in host.17:45
rmg51then it is a vm thing17:45
rmg51you need to find plugins17:45
rmg51then check history17:45
InHisNameI prefer separate anyway.17:46
rmg51that is the only way I know how it's done17:46
InHisNamepidgin has plugins ?17:46
rmg51yep17:46
rmg51keep in mind....17:47
InHisNamewhere to review etc.?17:47
rmg51it will only show the last log17:47
rmg51do you have an icon on the top panel?17:48
InHisNameYes, just poped up buddy list.   More options there.17:48
InHisNameok found plugins17:49
rmg51just go through the list until you find history17:50
rmg51check it and your good to go17:50
rmg51again.... it will only show the last log17:50
InHisNameok that is done - it mentioned the check item also.17:51
InHisNameOk shut down pidgin.   On restart,  only #vbox has old logs.  UNchecked.   ubuntu-us-pa checked & empty.18:35
InHisNameI must be doing something wrong.18:36
rmg51it's a vbox thing18:40
rmg51at least I think it is18:40
rmg51if you have logging checked you should have saved logs someplace18:41
InHisName#vobx chatroom is controlling my logs ???  now that sound more strange.18:42
rmg51not the chat room, the app18:43
rmg51but it should work18:43
InHisNamevirtualbox is meddling with my pidgin app ?18:44
rmg51if I remember correctly, I had logging turned on when I ran vmware18:44
rmg51if you did it right then something is meddling with it18:45
InHisName#vbox has a historical bunch of conversation and it is NOT checked for logging.18:46
rmg51we don't care about vbox18:47
InHisName#ubuntu-us-pa IS checked and had some conversation when I ended pidgin.  Started up now blank.18:47
rmg51it is the others that you need to get to work18:47
InHisNameSame for #gns3, checked, restared and old conv not in new run.18:47
rmg51is history checked?18:48
InHisNameBUT #vbox NOT check and it has old set.  Amazing18:48
InHisNameyes history checked too.18:48
rmg51then it should work18:48
rmg51unless vbox is messing things up18:49
InHisNameI wanted to know how #vbox is doing that, so I could replicate it in other rooms.18:49
InHisNameSo far UNchecked one keeps logs over restart.   Checked ones don't.    backwards18:51
rmg51not sure if I can help you any more18:53
rmg51no more ideas18:53
rmg51you may have to look to see where logs are being saved18:53
rmg51usually under purple18:54
rmg51if nothing is there then no logs are being saved18:54
