[02:28] after installing ubuntu server 11.4 i get these errors. On reboot the file system /boot is corrupted. When i repair this disk with knoppix cd it says it was uncleanly unmounted. after repair it boots normal. But after a reboot i gives the same error. The error message is Cannot write bytes: pipe error. Basicly it does not unmount /boot correctly. Then i installed Debian to see if it was a [02:28] software issue. But the i get about a similar error. When Debian shuts down it says something like this: cannot unmount file system failed. So it seems it is some sort of same issue.. idears ? [02:53] i'm guessing hardware problem or kernel bug, but you need to check dmesg [06:15] Morning [07:26] morning all [07:48] good morning everyone.

[10:17] full version is 900 quid [10:17] * oimon falls over [10:17] that's obscene [10:17] heh [10:18] you should see how much SAP charge for their software [10:18] for the HR module of SAP the license fee is in part (AIUI) based on how much you pay your staff [10:18] it's a percentage of your payroll [10:18] wrong wrong wrong [10:18] isn't viseo a flow chart type of tool? [10:18] it's terrible and so wrong [10:19] s/visio [10:20] if the looting in my home town wasn't bad enough, somebody opened my carton of orange juice for the week i had in the office fridge - where were the police eh? [10:20] is nothing sacred? [10:20] and a dog did a poo on my doorstep last night :( [10:20] friend of mine works for a company where _people_ poo on the doorstep regularly [10:21] in east london? [10:21] popey: microsoft cambridge :) [10:21] ? [10:21] not quite sure where he is [10:21] We have people who poo on the walls here in the office [10:21] He hasn't been caught for >4 years now [10:21] (or she?) [10:21] dna testing? [10:22] * MooDoo is going to beat all of you, i'm getting a device in 4 weeks that will poo EVERYWHERE and at ANY TIME [10:22] i thought the netherlands were a civilised place [10:22] s/device/baby :) [10:22] lol [10:22] oimon: it tends to be [10:22] loads of my local shops got trashed last night :( [10:25] MartijnVdS: they put poo on the walls of the toilet or the office? [10:25] MooDoo: You mad fool, I'd of thought by your time of life you'd know what cause them and how to prevent it ;) [10:25] oimon: toilet [10:25] oimon: (stall) [10:26] look for a guy that looks like this: http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/2006-11-20/ [10:26] morning guys and gals! [10:27] \o andylockran [10:27] morning [10:27] howdy howdy howdy [10:28] soo [10:28] :) [10:28] are there any lightning talk slots planned for oggcamp? [10:31] Leprechaun giving a lightning talk: http://i.imgur.com/Taqwt.jpg [10:35] MartijnVdS: quick video question - i remember speaking to you about deinterlacing.. [10:36] i ripped and encoded a dvd and made a new dvd, in order to combine 3 short dvds into 1. but the final result was "wobbly",, especailly with horizontal movement of the chracters - did i miss a step? do i need to deinterlace? [10:36] davmor2: well i did advise her to take a shower ;) [10:36] MooDoo: hahaha [10:46] oimon: I think you need to deinterlace, yes [10:46] oimon: http://www.100fps.com/ [10:48] didn't think it would be necessary when ripping from a dvd [10:48] oimon: that page explains everything you ever wanted to know about interlacing, deinterlacing methods, how and why [10:48] oimon: depends on how the DVD was mastered (and the video on it encoded) [10:49] what a pain in teh butt this is :( [10:49] oimon: Read 100fps.com, then with everything you've learned adapt ffmpeg command line :) [10:49] oh ffmpeg? i just use handbrake, handles all this for you [10:50] i did use handbrake [10:50] OK toggle the right switches in handbrake [10:50] same thing really :) [10:50] you just have to know what each switch does :) [10:52] took me hours...gonna have to do it all again :( [10:52] decomb, set to auto, does everything for you :) [10:52] So popey you bought MS office why exactly? [10:52] oimon: tip: set it to do the first 5 minutes only [10:52] oimon: then check if it worked [10:52] davmor2: because I need it for work [10:53] contrary to what most free software advocates believe, OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice are nmot 100% compatible with Microsoft Office. [10:53] popey: so why didn't work provide you with a copy? [10:53] popey: in which way? [10:53] :O shocking [10:53] davmor2: I _am_ 'work' in this case [10:54] * popey is employed by a company he owns [10:54] ooh, rich kid eh :P [10:54] lemonade stands don't bring in much dough [10:54] windscreen wash sir? [10:54] gord: LibreOffice doesn't come with WordArt though! [10:54] MartijnVdS: there are a boat load of small things, macro set etc that don't work the same in OO.o/LO [10:54] gord: or Comic Sans [10:55] popey: well there is your first mistake asking, just wash the windscreen and stick out your hand [10:55] heh [10:55] thats where I have been going wrong [10:55] davmor2: embedded objects work badly in OOo [10:55] moin [10:55] okay, after half an hour i think i am done with this album that is nothing but different chiptune versions of axel f [10:55] gord: next up: http://www.demoscenetimemachine.com/ [10:56] popey: I knew you were, so you're company bought you a copy of MS office then ;) not you :) wash your hands of it and move on :) [10:58] popey: so here's the biggy, did you buy the MS version, Mac version, and are you running it on Microsoft of in wine? [10:59] I bought the Windows version which I am running under Windows. [10:59] on bare metal [11:00] popey: Fair enough, I was going to ask how it ran under wine if that was the case but now I shall not :) [11:00] Anyone have a Android phone that they don't want in here ? [11:00] i wonder how nice it would with virtualbox under that cool native mode [11:01] i'm not curious enough to spend the money on ms office to find out though ;) [11:07] diplo: No! however if you go to the orange shop you can pick up a reasonable pay as you go one called the San Francisco for a £100 if that helps [11:08] Ooh I'll take a look ta davmor2 [11:09] gord: what's that decomb thing you mentioned? a separate app or part of handbrake [11:09] oimon, park of handbrake [11:09] oimon: it's a processing flag in your favourite transcoding app [11:09] gord: parking brake? :P [11:10] diplo: it doesn't have the fastest processor in the world, and you can upgrade it by rooting and using blade upgrades if orange haven't yet for your info [11:10] gord: ah, found it hidden away [11:10] * daubers waits for the microwave to go *ping* [11:11] decomb has off, custom, default. [11:11] daubers: Rig it to go "Awoooga!" next time :) [11:12] Basically just want to get started, really don't want another contract :/ [11:12] If i could find a second hand desire / something similar I'd go for it [11:12] i love that you can now upload photos to ubuntu one folder from android :) [11:12] diplo, the android sdk does have an emulator y'know [11:15] heh, again something I want to try, but actually want a physical phone. [11:15] handbrake doesn't support ripping to divx anymore :( [11:15] Had *old* Nokias for a couple of years now [11:15] diplo: http://shop.orange.co.uk/mobile-phones/san-francisco-from-orange-in-grey [11:15] Just found one on ebay near end of auction for £21 [11:15] oimon, right, because divx is awful.. just use x264 :) turn off a bunch of options if its too slow [11:16] i have a dvd player that plays divx, would save me a lot of time encoding [11:16] so... you are ripping a dvd to... put on a dvd? [11:16] to play in your dvd player? [11:16] yes, to combine 2 dvds i need to rip+encode then do it again [11:16] Just keeping an eye on it, nice to have a cheap phone till I have some spare cash to afford a decent one [11:17] actually it's 3 short dvds [11:19] sounds like a lot of work [11:19] why not just carry 3 dvds? [11:19] and give your cpu a rest [11:20] cos my son likes to watch button moon, but the dvd's are really short, so often nothing else gets watched on the dvd player so best practice to put everything on one dvd. besides the dvds are getting scratched and flung around the room [11:20] heh [11:20] Button Moon :D [11:20] * popey starts singing [11:21] * oimon is sick of the tune by now [11:21] We're off to button moon, follow mister spoon.. button moooooon, button moooooooon [11:21] i just ordered bagpuss [11:21] he has good 70s taste [11:21] my son is now in to the wiggles and imagination movers, oh yeah and iron maiden :) [11:22] popey: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gu0o6u1VmGE though I preferred http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI9rXx88YsA&feature=related and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UE7WrEidvyY personally [11:22] DM for when he's older [11:22] he's only 1 atm [11:23] there should be a channel dave for kids [11:23] oimon: If they start showing sharkey and george, I may have to get a TV licence [11:25] MooDoo, Iron Maiden \0/ saw them in Cardiff last week [11:25] First time in 19 years! [11:29] Myrtti: no lightning talks on the schedule yet [11:29] sky news live requires silverlight...what? bye then [11:31] AlanBell: aw. I've been toying with the idea of a short talk, don't have enough to say for a full slot... I doubt I'll have courage to do the presentation anyway, so no harm done [11:36] you could propose a lightning talks slot [11:39] o/ [11:41] seen the hitler gnome3 vid? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-moXUALZtw&feature=youtu.be [11:43] *yawn* [11:43] yes [11:43] all over G+ [11:44] lol i keep forgetting to look at g+ [11:44] tired meme [11:44] indeed [11:44] G+ is where meme's go to die [11:44] heh [11:44] google don't even bother emailing me about g+ stuff anymore. i'll check it again next week [11:45] I never turned off the emails [11:49] wow my g+ is pretty bare right now [11:52] anybody have recommendations for using loads of terminal windows together? ive always got 10+ open and tabs is ok, but there must be something better [11:52] dogmatic69, terminator [11:53] nice [12:02] terminator could do with some tabs too [12:03] it does do tabs [12:03] i think [12:03] nope [12:04] no context menu [12:04] no ctrl + t [12:04] ctrl-shift-t [12:04] ah [12:04] nice [12:04] why they hide it... :/ [12:04] because tabs are evil :) [12:04] so how does terminator compare with byobu? [12:05] different purposes [12:05] it doesn't :) terminator is a terminal emulator [12:05] byobu is a screen thingy [12:05] this terminator ~= the normal terminal [12:07] so would I use byobu in terminator? [12:07] maybe [12:08] * AlanBell installs to find out what this thing is [12:08] byobu is just a bit of a UI for screen [12:09] yeah, trying to figure out what terminator is [12:09] terminator is split screen terminals [12:09] you can have 10 in one window [12:11] basically if you use one terminal window, gnome-terminal should be fine, for those of us that regularly use multiple terminal windows, terminator is a great fit, its so easy to make/remove terminals :) [12:12] unless you also need those terminals to be slightly bigger than a postage stamp - then it's rubbish [12:13] AlanBell: http://oi51.tinypic.com/67uqzs.jpg === denny- is now known as denny [12:28] not i just have 3 tabs open with everything <3 [12:29] omg [12:30] open one term for each box, group them together. type command once, works on all in the group [12:31] I am getting lots of emails from Standard & Poor's about their big "downgrading America" thing [12:32] must log into the newsletter preferences console I rewrote for them and turn it off [12:34] haha, everyone in the office is wanting terminator now [12:34] they all on mac's === bag_ is now known as mr_bag [12:37] Terminator will run on any modern OS with Java 6 or later. [12:37] hmm i'm wondering if that's a different app with the same name [12:55] yeah, oimon there are two [13:05] same with unity [13:06] google for "unity" and you get some 3D framework for mobile phones(?) [13:06] MOO! [13:07] DOO! [13:08] POO! [13:08] what what! [13:08] FOO [13:09] MooDoo: are you going to rms? [13:09] MooDoo: In the bu# [13:09] bus [13:09] Laney: yes indeedy [13:09] good good [13:09] * bigcalm goes to do some soldering for the 1st time in 10+ years [13:10] what time do peeps think oggcamp sessions will finish on sat? 5pm?

I enjoy the dark ages where they made music you could sing to :P [13:33] or in my case , return home :( [13:33] Is there a limit to the number of devices that a google account can be used on? [13:33] davmor2: old sod [13:33] oimon: try and stay for an hr if you can [13:33] best chatting is done then [13:33] :'( son won't let it [13:33] ah [13:33] he's quite strict about his bedtime, being 1 and all that [13:33] I'm sure you'll have a good day [13:34] yeah :) [13:34] czajkowski: you're only a bit younger so watch you're gob, and I think MooDoo and popey are both older than me :P [13:36] davmor2: i'm 19 [13:36] cough cough [13:36] ahem [13:37] * oimon checks MooDoo blog [13:37] <_serial_> is getting on a bit at 29 [13:37] It's my 40th next year [13:37] I think I may have a party [13:37] MooDoo: for the second time :P [13:37] * oimon didn't used to believe older people when they forgot how old they were. now i have to work it own based on my birth year [13:37] davmor2: pah i'm 40 next year i'll have you know [13:38] popey: i'm having a party too, i might even pop down to london to have a beer [13:38] turning 40 is OK so long as you have managed to father 2 kids, have wife + dog, built a house and written a book [13:39] popey: I'm 38 tomorrow :) as I say czajkowski calling me an old sod doesn't bode well for you pair :D [13:39] oimon: 1 now 1 in 4 weeks, wife yes built a house yes [lego] and written a book yeah right lol [13:39] davmor2: don't how czajkowski dare, she's 85 next [13:39] <_serial_> suddenly doesn't feel that old on here :) thanks guys [13:40] MooDoo: What flowers do you want at your funeral?
