Fudgedoes themuso still come in here?04:59
head_victimFudge: not since July according to my logs08:26
head_victimThat may be this year or previous years though, apparently my logs don't timestamp the year :/08:27
head_victimsagaci: I have xchat log files for the channel if that helps your cause08:28
sagacikinda08:33
sagacidid you submit translations for upstream xchat08:33
head_victimYes, both to the person responsible and the enGB team leader and still no response a month or two on08:34
head_victimInteresting my Freenode-#ubuntu-au.log file is 32MB in size and has updated to 30/08/11, my NETWORK-#ubuntu-au.log file is 100KB and has been updated until now. The NETWORK might be a buffer I guess.08:38
adhochead_victim: maybe its rotated like your log files08:49
head_victimadhoc: quite possible08:49
adhocperhaps when it hits a size limit?08:49
head_victimNah I think it sits the last X amount in a temp file for scrollback or something08:49
adhocwhich irc client are you using?08:50
head_victimxchat208:50
head_victimI have scrollback to 21/07 currently so that's out the window08:51
head_victimHmm apparently I DC'd on the 30/08 so that might ahve something to do with it, it's now not reconised the network.08:52
Fudgetks08:52
head_victimFudge: thank you, now I know my logging fails so I've fixed it :)08:53
head_victimI thought it took the timestamp as it's written on the screen. Apparently not.08:53
head_victimFor reference08:53
head_victim[Sun 04 Sep - 18:53:36] <head_victim> I thought it took the timestamp as it's written on the screen. Apparently not.08:53
head_victimThat's what I was sort of expecting in my logs :/08:54
head_victimOh that still doesn't have year either, maybe I fail all around08:54
Fudgehow so 09:06
Fudgeoh right09:06
Fudgemm09:06

head_victimMy goal is to set up an irssi proxy and connect via xchat still09:09
head_victimI only have around 25 channels across 2 networks09:09
bwrightHallo09:10
Fudgeits very easy to do actually09:10
Fudgedo u need help09:10
Fudgebwright  hi09:10
head_victimFudge: more that I haven't had time to set up the server how I want i first09:10

Fudgeme too bitlbee09:11

Fudgewhat server head_victim 09:11
head_victimI only have a FB account so I can access the UbuntuAU one09:11
Fudgeits about 5 commands to irssi09:11
head_victimFudge: home server :)09:11
Fudgestatic ip dns updating tool and a ups, 09:11
Fudgedont turn it off lol09:11
head_victimI'm a typical "end user" that has found it interesting to play around.09:11
bwrightI just found out how to convert values into types.09:11
Fudgesweet mate09:11
bwrightit is a bit odd.09:11
Fudgewhat is?09:12
bwrighttemplate <int A> struct Int2Type { enum { val = A }; };09:12
Fudgeoh ove rmy head09:12
head_victimI'm trying to set it up as a DNS and file server for the network as it's primary job. Secondary will be irssi and stuff.09:12
Fudgeoh i didnt see this09:12
Fudge< bwright> I just found out how to convert values into types.09:12
bwrightI am reading Modern C++ Design.09:13
Fudgei dont understand why ppl want dns servers these days09:13
Fudgenameserver 4.2.2.1 nameserver 4.2.2.409:13
bwrightThe new C++ standard was released yesterday.09:13
Fudgecant go wrong with google09:13
bwrightTrying to amp myself up to read it.09:13
Fudgebwright  cool man09:13
adhocFudge: the main reason is to learn, surely ;)09:13
head_victimFudge: easier than setting up an conf on each system for the home network.09:13
Fudgeto do what though?09:14
adhocFudge: then, of course isreducing your dependency on third party services you have no control over09:14
head_victimBasically I have 15 devices with static ip's that I want to connect via hostnames.09:14
Fudgeyour modem doesnt have a domain feature?09:14
Fudgeso hostname of machine. domainname in your mdoem.09:14
head_victimProbably does, (it's a Netgear FVS336G) but more interested in playing with a linux server09:14
Fudgecool09:15
Fudgewell the irssi proxy is very simple, if u have trouble id be happy to tell u how to do it when you are ready09:15
head_victimFudge: thanks mate, will definitely ping you when the time comes.09:15
Fudgeor if u wanna setup ircd and stuff im pretty good with those09:15
Fudgenp 09:15
head_victimNah not really interested in a whole ircd09:16
head_victimUnless someone loans me some huge bandwidth I don't really have a need for it09:16
Fudgeu don tneed it on ircds really09:17
Fudgebut np09:17
Fudgei did just get sent an email yest on setting up a dns server or was it dhcp09:17
Fudgeoh it was dhcp and firewall09:18
Fudgethats no good to anyone who wants to run a dhcp serve rlol09:19
head_victimI have my router set up to dhcp a specific range so the rest i can use for static09:20
adhochead_victim: do you have your linux server between your static network and your adsl modem?09:21
head_victimMy setup is cable modem > router > switch > devices09:21
adhocso the router is a linux box?09:21
head_victimNah, netgear blue box09:22
head_victimBut, the goal is to learn enough that my next router is a linux machine.09:22
adhocah, so the cable modemhas one NIC?09:22
head_victimYep, but the router has dual wan so I ahve the wireless broadband plugged in as failover09:22
adhocok, at home my config varies a fair bit depending on the time of year, ie less servers in summer09:23
Fudgedont you ahve to pay for the wireless every month though09:23
adhocbut i have a linux server with three network devices in it09:23
head_victimHah fair call, the main reason I'm doing all this is so I can shut down what was 5 computers running 24/709:23
head_victimIt's down to 3 at the moment.09:23
Fudgewhat is your server, hardware wise09:23
head_victimI pay 10$ a month for my wireless, I just up it when I actually want to use it09:23
head_victimFudge: desktop pc parts, 2.33 quad core with 8gb ram and for storage 4x 1tb drives in raid 1009:24
Fudgeim trying to decide it this HT 3gig p4 2gig ram is worthwile to use for my hackintosh, its an i865 chipset09:24
head_victimI used a 3.2 prescott as a desktop with Lubuntu on it.09:24
Fudgenice server, u will run out of storage real fast though09:25
head_victimYes and no, I'm only putting stuff on there I can't recover online.09:25
head_victimI have external drives for full Ubuntu mirrors (release and archive)09:25
Fudgemine has 2tb sata jsut a 2.9 socket 775 what ever they re called, core 2 duo or something but is asus mini itx thing so low power consumption09:25
head_victimAnd other bits and bobs that I can easily replace.09:25
Fudgewow09:25
Fudgewhats ur internet speed there09:25
Fudgei got 20/109:26
head_victim4.2MB/s to aarnet 09:26
head_victimSo around high 30s mb/s09:26
Fudgewow09:26
head_victimIt's been slowing down though, I'm only getting 2.4 ish MB/s these days09:26
Fudgenice09:26
head_victimWill one day poke around to see if that's Telsra or AARNet's doing09:27
* Fudge shrugs09:27
Fudgebbs putting another drive in thi sbox09:27
head_victimNW09:30
head_victimbwright: looks like a lot of reading 09:30
Fudgemm09:30
Fudgeback09:30
sagacihead_victim, nah it's ok, I just wget the logs for the past 6 months12:32
head_victimOk, if you need more I have some going back quite some time it seems.12:32
sagacihead_victim, so I wonder what/if there is a process to enable translation on launchpad, still talking about xchat12:54
head_victimNot sure, I think it has to come from the project themselves.12:55
sagaciso you do hold much hope getting your translations reviewed/approved through the upstream?12:59
head_victimNot sure, my next hope is to bug the xchat people directly.12:59
head_victimOr I'll ask on the translation mailing list if I get no luck from xchat13:00
head_victimSee if we can push the issue a bit13:03
TrentTest14:46
sagaciit works!14:47
TrentxD thanks14:47
Trentwhat is "LoCo"14:48
sagaciLocal Community14:49
Trentahhh makes sense14:50
TrentIt's kind of implied though :)14:51
TrentWhats everyone up too at this late hour anyway ?14:51
sagacimost are probably just idling14:51
Trentahh fair enough, is it safe to assume most of the people in here are programmers of some kind ?14:55
sagaciumm, not necessarily.. I'd probably only assume that most to all know how to use a terminal for basic commands14:56
sagacisome might be super leet hackers but some are here just because they have an interest in ubuntu14:56
Trentmm thats fair enough14:57
TrentAnd where do you fit in amongst it all, are you the super leet hacker you were referring too ? :P14:59
sagacino, I use the terminal but I use the desktop applications much more15:01
Trenthehe, i try to use terminal whenever i can15:03
sagacido you use ubuntu15:04
Trentthis heap of junk computer is already running with xfce desktop, but software centre and some other apps just drain it completely, atleast the terminal uses little resources15:04
TrentXubuntu15:04
sagacihave you tried lubuntu15:04
Trenti have ubuntu on my laptop though, but i use win7 on that most of the time15:04
Trentlubuntu :S ??15:04
Trentkubuntu ?15:05
sagaciubuntu with the lxde desktop15:05
Trentlxde15:05
Trentnever heard of it to be honest15:05
sagaciI have win7 dual booted too, I used to use windows more but you get used to ubuntu so much that windows is the pain that it is to boot into15:05
sagaciwhat specific win7 software keeps you using it?15:07
Trentsome video converting software, digsby messenger, i do some game server scripting and i don't want to be bothered setting up the compiler in wine (just my lazyness)15:09
sagaciah fair enough15:09
TrentNot much to be honest, windows is just familiar15:10
sagaciyeah, I know the feeling15:10
Trentthe search from start menu is smooth though, i use it often15:10
sagaciit's hard to switch out of a workflow you have going15:11
TrentYea, even though perfectly capable alternatives are available, it doesn't have anything i need which windows can't offer right now, off the top of my head15:13
