| cyberanger | orangeninja: not much, just chilling | 00:20 |
| * cyberanger puts away the liquid nitrogen | 00:20 | |
| cyberanger | wrst: got a question or two for you | 01:28 |
| wrst | hey cyberanger | 01:30 |
| cyberanger | wrst: what do you use with openlp, arch, ubuntu? | 01:33 |
| cyberanger | (seems I'm now being tasked to setup a system with goals that openlp should solve perfectly) | 01:42 |
| wrst | currently I am using a variety arch, ubuntu, win 7 fedora, etc to test on | 01:42 |
| wrst | cyberanger: its in QT so it works really well in kubuntu | 01:42 |
| wrst | depending on who your users are etc | 01:42 |
| wrst | if you use a straight ubuntu intall unity isn't something that works well due to how unity handles dual monitors | 01:43 |
| cyberanger | my users is a salvation army youth group, I'd be running it | 01:43 |
| cyberanger | and you know me, that kinda makes me consider trying with openbox first & foremost | 01:43 |
| wrst | ahh well if that's the case you should be good to go cyberanger, they have a ppa, which I'm sure you have looked at and also if you do /dev verses /release on the ppa you will get the latest code or you can get the code via checking out in launchpad or what not | 01:44 |
| cyberanger | I'm thinking arch over kubuntu (just seems kubuntu doesn't give kde any justice (even I respect kde, I just respect openbox more ;-)) | 01:45 |
| cyberanger | anything I should be aware of, like a reason to chose dev over release for example | 01:46 |
| cyberanger | or a reason I should skip trying anything but kde (reason being tons of bugs, or something) | 01:46 |
| wrst | more up to date code and features and still stable, and if you go with arch cyberanger its in the AUR ther is a package openlp same as the /release ppa and then openlp-bzr that will pull in the latest code you just have to reinstall if you see updates you want | 01:47 |
| wrst | cyberanger: I run it in gnome-shell | 01:47 |
| cyberanger | (I've used similar software, but on windows, and not my setup, only used, not maintained) | 01:47 |
| wrst | well I can help with most things and what I can't they can over at #openlp | 01:48 |
| wrst | but its pretty simple setup to do | 01:48 |
| cyberanger | I figured so (contrary to my usual projects, which I go with overkill for) | 01:48 |
| cyberanger | so your actually using gnome-shell for it? | 01:49 |
| wrst | yes we had been using it every week right now we have win 7 and everyone hates it so going back to arch and gnome-shell | 01:50 |
| wrst | and these are die-hard windows users that are screaming for linux :) | 01:50 |
| cyberanger | lol, yeah, the other person involved respects my knowledge, but uses xp, says he's made ubuntu crash just as well | 01:51 |
| cyberanger | I'd love to know what crashed & why, but that's gonna make this a hard sell | 01:52 |
| cyberanger | (he's off when it comes to the youth group though | 01:52 |
| wrst | but really its really easy on arch as it is on ubuntu, also packages for fedora, pc-bsd, works with debian actually but not in a repo yet | 01:52 |
| cyberanger | so I'm getting it in there & see where it goes, he's willing to give it a try) | 01:52 |
| wrst | cool deal | 01:52 |
| cyberanger | wrst: ppa compatable with debian? or build from source? | 01:53 |
| wrst | its in python so if you have the depencies all you have to do is run the openlp.pyw file thats in the nightly build and you are good to go | 01:54 |
| cyberanger | (that's why I like openbox, vs gnome, it's nearly impossible to crash openbox to a lockup that compares to a BSoD, I've seen Gnome & KDE (and unity in worse, but dissimmilar ways) lockup really really bad, nothing but a hard reboot could do) | 01:54 |
| wrst | cyberanger: this isn't for debian but you can easily figure out the packages you need:http://wiki.openlp.org/Testing:Linux_Testing_Environment | 01:55 |
| cyberanger | maybe debian would work then | 01:55 |
| wrst | a debian install has most there are a few specific things that you would need for certain features but if they aren't by some chance in debians repos (highly unlikely) you can use easy_install | 01:55 |
| wrst | oh it works I have had it running on debian | 01:55 |
| wrst | cyberanger: brb in about 10-15 | 01:56 |
| cyberanger | saw that link, just thought it'd be best to ask you for what's not written | 01:57 |
| cyberanger | I'm deadlined on phases here, no real time to debugg anything that could go wrong | 01:57 |
| cyberanger | I mean, it's more than enough time, but any unknown snag slowing things down is undiserable, be nice to not need to burn more time debugging | 01:58 |
| cyberanger | (nature of group projects, everybodys input takes time to sort the goals, configure it in, get them to like & use it, then so on) | 01:59 |
| cyberanger | ok wrst, I'll be here | 01:59 |
| * cyberanger hangs onto the modem ;-) | 02:00 | |
| wrst | ok cyberanger back | 02:10 |
| wrst | one of the goals of openlp is to get into the debian repos I think that is a requirement before getting into ubuntu correct? | 02:10 |
| wrst | oh cyberanger just read your above messages we can get it up and running for you in just a little bit I think | 02:13 |
| cyberanger | oh, I think I can get it running, yeah | 02:13 |
| wrst | yeah its easy peasy, if I can do it i know you can :) | 02:14 |
| cyberanger | just choosing debian, or choosing openbox, so on | 02:14 |
| wrst | yeah I've had it running on mageia, mandriva too | 02:14 |
| cyberanger | wanted clarity after seeing qt & not in any repo (it's in a ppa & arch's user repo | 02:14 |
| cyberanger | and yeah, nearly always debian -> ubuntu repo) | 02:15 |
| wrst | its in fedora repos, but since its still not out of beta i think that's a little bit of why not in a ubuntu repo now | 02:15 |
| wrst | i'm a little, or a lot fuzzy on packaging | 02:15 |
| wrst | cyberanger: just checked with the OpenLP devs, they think the .deb might work with Debian, I suspect if you are running testing it should work | 12:55 |
| pace_t_zulu | that took long enough | 16:50 |
| pace_t_zulu | jeez | 16:50 |
| pace_t_zulu | hey guys | 16:50 |
| Unit193 | Howdy, howdy | 16:52 |
| pace_t_zulu | hey Unit193 | 16:55 |
| pace_t_zulu | something went down with my quassel-core | 16:55 |
| pace_t_zulu | a package update fixed it | 16:55 |
| Unit193 | Ah. screen (not byobu) and irssi still working for me ;) | 16:56 |
| wrst | ugh pace_t_zulu :\ | 17:00 |
| pace_t_zulu | wrst: did you have the same thing? | 17:01 |
| wrst | no pace_t_zulu no issues | 17:01 |
| pace_t_zulu | quassel-core was not connecting for me ... didn't have enough time to get to the bottom of it | 17:01 |
| wrst | but there was something that happened to some on quassel | 17:01 |
| pace_t_zulu | but a quassel-core update came and fixed it without reboot | 17:01 |
| wrst | press f7 go to ignore list and add a ctcp ignore rule of * | 17:01 |
| wrst | i did that as I heard of some folks that were having issues | 17:02 |
| pace_t_zulu | f7? | 17:02 |
| wrst | i think the entire #quassel set of users got their cores messed up | 17:02 |
| wrst | yeah pace_t_zulu or Settings --> Configure Quassel | 17:03 |
| pace_t_zulu | ok | 17:03 |
| pace_t_zulu | f7 worked | 17:03 |
| pace_t_zulu | wouldn't sure it would translate to OS X | 17:03 |
| wrst | ahh yeah forgot that | 17:03 |
| wrst | Unit193: some of us like to use a mouse on occasion :) | 17:04 |
| Unit193 | wrst: Couldn't resist :D I do have a mouse sitting right next to me though, but it might just be hiding from the mouse traps ;) | 17:10 |
| wrst | ha ha | 17:11 |
| pace_t_zulu | hey guys | 18:31 |
| pace_t_zulu | any suggestions as to how to get a fresh version of Git on a 8.04 server deployment? | 18:31 |
| Unit193 | Well, the smart aleck in me says to answer "Update it to 11.04!", but that's not the answer you want | 18:37 |
| wrst | pace_t_zulu: see this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=701127 not for sure how up to date that is | 18:45 |
| wrst | oh points to this ppa: https://edge.launchpad.net/~smartlounge/+archive/ppa | 18:45 |
| pace_t_zulu | wrst, this is what i'm going with http://launchpad.net/~git-core/+archive/ppa | 19:10 |
| pace_t_zulu | that's the most elegant | 19:10 |
| pace_t_zulu | would be more elegant on a 9.10+ version of Ubuntu | 19:10 |
| wrst | cool :) | 19:11 |
| wrst | pace_t_zulu: do have to ask i'm guessing lots of reasons why you wouldn't upgrade to 10.04? | 19:12 |
| pace_t_zulu | wrst: not my server to admin | 19:25 |
| pace_t_zulu | wrst: trying to tread lightly ;) | 19:25 |
| wrst | ahh I understand pace_t_zulu | 19:26 |
| pace_t_zulu | wrst: i consider myself lucky they gave me the keys to an ubuntu server ;) | 19:26 |
| wrst | ha ha yes cool | 19:26 |
