| nhaines | dragon: it'd be weirder if you were babysitting and the kid was like 19. | 01:31 |

| dragon | nhaines: How did you know!? | 01:48 |
| Darkwing | Anyone have any expirence with usb flash drives? It reconizes it as a USB device but, not a drive. | 02:11 |
| DonkeyHotei | the hello kitty ones have usb vendor/product codes 1234:5678, wreaking havoc on linux | 02:13 |
| DonkeyHotei | they also necessitate a reboot for proper unmounting on mac os x | 02:15 |
| broder | Darkwing: you could look at `sudo lsusb -v` - find the device in the tree that gets printed out, and see what bDeviceClass is | 02:15 |
| broder | (you might want to pipe that to less) | 02:15 |
| Darkwing | broder: It's defined at interface level however, bInterfaceClass shows Mass Storage. | 02:36 |
| broder | anything interesting in dmesg | tail? | 02:39 |
| Darkwing | [ 575.365357] scsi 6:0:0:0: Direct-Access XXXXXXXX U167CONTROLLER 0.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 | 02:40 |
| Darkwing | [ 575.421185] sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 | 02:40 |
| Darkwing | [ 575.422888] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk | 02:40 |
| Darkwing | However, when I try to mount sdb it states no medum found | 02:43 |
| broder | what about sdb1? | 02:49 |
| Darkwing | mount: special device /dev/sdb1/ does not exist | 02:50 |
| * Darkwing mutters | 02:50 | |
| Darkwing | it doesn't show up in fdisk -l | 02:50 |
| Darkwing | either... However. it lists sdb and sg1 in /dev/ | 02:50 |
| broder | are you sure it's actually partitioned and has a filesystem? | 02:51 |
| Darkwing | It was... Gimme a sec | 02:52 |
| Darkwing | Okay, plugged it in my moms Win7. There is no filesystem on it. | 02:53 |
| Darkwing | Sooo... Now I get to do a google search for building a filesystem | 02:54 |
| broder | open "disk utility" from the dash | 02:56 |
| Darkwing | gimme a sec to find my KDE equiv. :) | 02:58 |
| Darkwing | Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot open /dev/sdb: No medium found | 03:02 |
| Darkwing | I think this key is borked. | 03:02 |
| Darkwing | Ahhhhah | 03:30 |
| Darkwing | found a firmware recovery for it. | 03:30 |
| Darkwing | Well, that worked. | 04:39 |
| Ttech | Did it? | 04:39 |
| Darkwing | Yeah, I found a firmware program that runs on windows. So I used my mothers computer to reflash the firmware. | 04:43 |
| Darkwing | I found it on some russian website LOL | 04:43 |
| Darkwing | With the help of google translate and my highschool russian I was able to fix my borked pendrive. :D | 04:43 |
| Darkwing | well, this is fun... | 18:16 |
| jtatum | or is it? | 18:17 |
| Darkwing | fun bug of the day... now, howto deal... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdegames/+bug/925002 | 18:17 |
| pleia2 | oh dear | 18:17 |
| Darkwing | oh yes... like i said, fun. lol | 18:18 |
| pleia2 | I see the upstream bug brought it to the german list, but I'd talk to an ubuntu german native speaker | 18:19 |
| nhaines | I think a Zigeuner is a gypsy. | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | (I wince when I hear people throwing "political correctness" around because I've encountered some deeply offensive things that people laughed at and just said I was being too PC) | 18:21 |
| Darkwing | nhaines yes, its gypsy | 18:21 |
| nhaines | I'm not sure if it's a slur, although I'm pretty certain it can be used as one. The German word's related to 'tsigani' in Greek, like most of the other European words for the Romani peoples. | 18:21 |
| nhaines | I remember playing a rather pleasant song about a "Zigeuner" from a German piano/song book. | 18:22 |
| Darkwing | i need to find a native speaker still. | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | Darkwing: forward to dholbach? (he's off irc now, but he replies to email) | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | he's CC too, so can speak to CoC violations | 18:23 |
| Darkwing | yeah, Thanks. | 18:23 |
| nhaines | I don't see corresponding thread suggested on the kde-i19n-de ML. | 18:24 |
| Darkwing | oh, kubuntu 12.04 is sweeeeeeeet | 18:24 |
| nhaines | dholbach will definitely be able to grant some insight into the matter. :) | 18:24 |
| Darkwing | kde 4.8 is 110% better. | 18:25 |
| pleia2 | anyone near redwood city that can chime in on the list? We need to pick a place for dinner on Sunday | 19:03 |
| broder | did you look around to see if there was anything in the foster city area? that's your best bet for walkable | 19:34 |
| pleia2 | is the area actually walkable at night? | 19:35 |
| broder | not totally sure, but it's very residential, so i'd think it might be | 19:36 |
| pleia2 | foster city is still quite a hike from there | 19:36 |
| pleia2 | 4 miles :\ | 19:36 |
| jtatum | rwc has a little main street with like.. 5 thai restaurants | 19:37 |
| pleia2 | Devils Canyon Brewing Co seems close, but I don't know if it can be walked to | 19:37 |
| jtatum | i've been to at least three of them | 19:37 |
| broder | jtatum: yes, but sofitel barely counts as actually being in redwood city | 19:37 |
| pleia2 | 223 Twin Dolphin Drive | 19:37 |
| pleia2 | Redwood City, CA 94065 | 19:37 |
| jtatum | oh.. dunno | 19:37 |
| pleia2 | ^^ address of where they are staying | 19:37 |
| broder | (it's just across from oracle hq) | 19:38 |
| jtatum | ah. it's a short drive down to the main street area from twin dolphin. no good public transit. | 19:38 |
| pleia2 | jtatum: will you be joining us sunday evening? :) | 19:38 |
| broder | there's some stuff on redwood shores pkwy that might be workable | 19:39 |
| pleia2 | yum yum Amicis | 19:40 |
| jtatum | i think so, pleia2. jledbetter works on twin dolphin so probably knows whatever's nearby | 19:41 |
| pleia2 | jtatum: oh great, can you find her and ask? we'd like to have plans finalized by tomorrow | 19:41 |
| pleia2 | (or she can reply on list :)) | 19:41 |
| jledbetter | Wow, yeah, really close to there. I can walk there (223 Twin Dolphin) | 19:43 |
| pleia2 | jledbetter: we're planning to have dinner with some ubuntu folks coming in for Linaro Connect next week, need dinner place suggestions that are walkable from there :) | 19:44 |
| jledbetter | For lunch, we've gone across the street which is within walking distance. nothing's amazing though. Thinking. | 19:45 |
| jtatum | thought you said there was a pizza place over there? | 19:45 |
| jledbetter | Yeah. Haven't had it yet though. But I think it has the better review than the chinese place we usually go or Una Mas. http://www.amicis.com/ | 19:46 |
| jledbetter | They can probably walk down Twin Dolphin and cross the street or go through the EA campus which is beautiful ;) But might not be so impressive at night. | 19:47 |
| pleia2 | Amicis is good, they have locations up here too | 19:47 |
| jledbetter | jtatum: I think that hotel is the one folks were staying at for the holiday party | 19:47 |
| pleia2 | jledbetter: will the guards chase them out? :) | 19:47 |
| pleia2 | sunday evening, roaming pack of geeks... | 19:47 |
| jledbetter | pleia2: I don't think so. | 19:47 |
| jledbetter | Interesting idea to be chased out though. Specially if you do the meditation maze thing. | 19:48 |
| pleia2 | hah | 19:48 |
| jtatum | meditation maze? | 19:48 |
| jledbetter | We have a bike path so I'm guessing no one would be chased off. | 19:48 |
| jledbetter | jtatum: Yeah. Didn't show that to you? My bad. It's like... actually might be seeable in google maps | 19:48 |
| pleia2 | it's unclear if Una Mas there is open for dinner | 19:49 |
| jledbetter | jtatum: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=EA+Bikepath,+Redwood+City,+CA&hl=en&sll=37.522074,-122.255012&sspn=0.004976,0.008256&oq=ea+bikepath&hnear=EA+Bikepath,+Redwood+City,+San+Mateo,+California+94065&t=h&z=17 zoom in | 19:50 |
| pleia2 | maybe we just go with Amici's, they're open, have veggie options | 19:50 |
| jledbetter | Una Mas has veggie options too but not sure of their hours. | 19:51 |
| pleia2 | their website is unhelpful about hours | 19:51 |
| jledbetter | I hate when restaurants do that. I guess they like getting those phone calls about what their hours are ;) | 19:53 |
| pleia2 | hah | 19:53 |
| akk | Amazingly few restaurants bother to list their hours on their website | 19:53 |
| akk | those that even have websites, which is already an amazingly small subset | 19:53 |
| pleia2 | jledbetter: is it a sit down place, or more like chipotle? (una mas) | 19:53 |
| jledbetter | pleia2: More like chipotle. There are tables. Can pull them together. | 19:53 |
| akk | Una Mas is like chipotle but a little more fast-foody. | 19:54 |
| pleia2 | ok, I'll call and find out about hours | 19:54 |
| jledbetter | Amici's might do the table pulling together in advance though with a phone call | 19:54 |
| jtatum | glad we got the SME here :) | 19:54 |
| jledbetter | haha | 19:55 |
| jledbetter | Yeah. Food options around EA. I'm the SME. | 19:55 |
| pleia2 | una mas is only open until 8 | 19:55 |
| pleia2 | I think we do Amici's and make reservations, they're open until 10 | 19:56 |
| jledbetter | That sounds better, unless you want to go a clipper shuttle route. Not sure of their evening hours though. I only use them in the morning. | 19:56 |
| akk | Pizza & Pipes hosted a robot hackathon a few months ago and was pretty roomy, but it's downtown RC. | 19:56 |
| jledbetter | There might be photos of Amicis innards somewhere. | 19:57 |
| jledbetter | http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/Z56xohgVbOmv-6-EMKlctQ | 19:57 |
| pleia2 | cool, looks good | 19:58 |
| jledbetter | And, of course, now I want pizza. | 19:58 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 19:59 |
| akk | I do too, but I have to go meet someone for ramen, which sounds a lot less appealing. | 19:59 |
| pleia2 | jledbetter: think you can put together some walking directions for people from the hotel? | 19:59 |
| nhaines | akk: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/restaurant_website | 20:02 |
| jledbetter | pleia2: Sure | 20:03 |
| akk | Haha, yes! nhaines | 20:03 |
| pleia2 | oh yeah, it's superbowl night | 20:03 |
| pleia2 | but I think fans will be elsewhere | 20:03 |
| jledbetter | There's also an ice cream shop there that has vegan ice cream. Don't know the name or hours. But I had the chocolate at our ice cream social and it was num. | 20:05 |
