[01:31] dragon: it'd be weirder if you were babysitting and the kid was like 19. [01:48] nhaines: How did you know!? [02:11] Anyone have any expirence with usb flash drives? It reconizes it as a USB device but, not a drive. [02:13] the hello kitty ones have usb vendor/product codes 1234:5678, wreaking havoc on linux [02:15] they also necessitate a reboot for proper unmounting on mac os x [02:15] 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] (you might want to pipe that to less) [02:36] broder: It's defined at interface level however, bInterfaceClass shows Mass Storage. [02:39] anything interesting in dmesg | tail? [02:40] [ 575.365357] scsi 6:0:0:0: Direct-Access XXXXXXXX U167CONTROLLER 0.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 [02:40] [ 575.421185] sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 [02:40] [ 575.422888] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk [02:43] However, when I try to mount sdb it states no medum found [02:49] what about sdb1? [02:50] mount: special device /dev/sdb1/ does not exist [02:50] * Darkwing mutters [02:50] it doesn't show up in fdisk -l [02:50] either... However. it lists sdb and sg1 in /dev/ [02:51] are you sure it's actually partitioned and has a filesystem? [02:52] It was... Gimme a sec [02:53] Okay, plugged it in my moms Win7. There is no filesystem on it. [02:54] Sooo... Now I get to do a google search for building a filesystem [02:56] open "disk utility" from the dash [02:58] gimme a sec to find my KDE equiv. :) [03:02] Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot open /dev/sdb: No medium found [03:02] I think this key is borked. [03:30] Ahhhhah [03:30] found a firmware recovery for it. [04:39] Well, that worked. [04:39] Did it? [04:43] Yeah, I found a firmware program that runs on windows. So I used my mothers computer to reflash the firmware. [04:43] I found it on some russian website LOL [04:43] With the help of google translate and my highschool russian I was able to fix my borked pendrive. :D [18:16] well, this is fun... [18:17] or is it? [18:17] fun bug of the day... now, howto deal... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdegames/+bug/925002 [18:17] oh dear [18:18] oh yes... like i said, fun. lol [18:19] I see the upstream bug brought it to the german list, but I'd talk to an ubuntu german native speaker [18:19] I think a Zigeuner is a gypsy. [18:21] (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] nhaines yes, its gypsy [18:21] 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. [18:22] I remember playing a rather pleasant song about a "Zigeuner" from a German piano/song book. [18:22] i need to find a native speaker still. [18:22] Darkwing: forward to dholbach? (he's off irc now, but he replies to email) [18:23] he's CC too, so can speak to CoC violations [18:23] yeah, Thanks. [18:24] I don't see corresponding thread suggested on the kde-i19n-de ML. [18:24] oh, kubuntu 12.04 is sweeeeeeeet [18:24] dholbach will definitely be able to grant some insight into the matter. :) [18:25] kde 4.8 is 110% better. [19:03] anyone near redwood city that can chime in on the list? We need to pick a place for dinner on Sunday [19:34] did you look around to see if there was anything in the foster city area? that's your best bet for walkable [19:35] is the area actually walkable at night? [19:36] not totally sure, but it's very residential, so i'd think it might be [19:36] foster city is still quite a hike from there [19:36] 4 miles :\ [19:37] rwc has a little main street with like.. 5 thai restaurants [19:37] Devils Canyon Brewing Co seems close, but I don't know if it can be walked to [19:37] i've been to at least three of them [19:37] jtatum: yes, but sofitel barely counts as actually being in redwood city [19:37] 223 Twin Dolphin Drive [19:37] Redwood City, CA 94065 [19:37] oh.. dunno [19:37] ^^ address of where they are staying [19:38] (it's just across from oracle hq) [19:38] ah. it's a short drive down to the main street area from twin dolphin. no good public transit. [19:38] jtatum: will you be joining us sunday evening? :) [19:39] there's some stuff on redwood shores pkwy that might be workable [19:40] yum yum Amicis [19:41] i think so, pleia2. jledbetter works on twin dolphin so probably knows whatever's nearby [19:41] jtatum: oh great, can you find her and ask? we'd like to have plans finalized by tomorrow [19:41] (or she can reply on list :)) [19:43] Wow, yeah, really close to there. I can walk there (223 Twin Dolphin) [19:44] 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 :) [19:45] For lunch, we've gone across the street which is within walking distance. nothing's amazing though. Thinking. [19:45] thought you said there was a pizza place over there? [19:46] 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/ [19:47] 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] Amicis is good, they have locations up here too [19:47] jtatum: I think that hotel is the one folks were staying at for the holiday party [19:47] jledbetter: will the guards chase them out? :) [19:47] sunday evening, roaming pack of geeks... [19:47] pleia2: I don't think so. [19:48] Interesting idea to be chased out though. Specially if you do the meditation maze thing. [19:48] hah [19:48] meditation maze? [19:48] We have a bike path so I'm guessing no one would be chased off. [19:48] jtatum: Yeah. Didn't show that to you? My bad. It's like... actually might be seeable in google maps [19:49] it's unclear if Una Mas there is open for dinner [19:50] 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] maybe we just go with Amici's, they're open, have veggie options [19:51] Una Mas has veggie options too but not sure of their hours. [19:51] their website is unhelpful about hours [19:53] I hate when restaurants do that. I guess they like getting those phone calls about what their hours are ;) [19:53] hah [19:53] Amazingly few restaurants bother to list their hours on their website [19:53] those that even have websites, which is already an amazingly small subset [19:53] jledbetter: is it a sit down place, or more like chipotle? (una mas) [19:53] pleia2: More like chipotle. There are tables. Can pull them together. [19:54] Una Mas is like chipotle but a little more fast-foody. [19:54] ok, I'll call and find out about hours [19:54] Amici's might do the table pulling together in advance though with a phone call [19:54] glad we got the SME here :) [19:55] haha [19:55] Yeah. Food options around EA. I'm the SME. [19:55] una mas is only open until 8 [19:56] I think we do Amici's and make reservations, they're open until 10 [19:56] 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] Pizza & Pipes hosted a robot hackathon a few months ago and was pretty roomy, but it's downtown RC. [19:57] There might be photos of Amicis innards somewhere. [19:57] http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/Z56xohgVbOmv-6-EMKlctQ [19:58] cool, looks good [19:58] And, of course, now I want pizza. [19:59] hehe [19:59] I do too, but I have to go meet someone for ramen, which sounds a lot less appealing. [19:59] jledbetter: think you can put together some walking directions for people from the hotel? [20:02] akk: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/restaurant_website [20:03] pleia2: Sure [20:03] Haha, yes! nhaines [20:03] oh yeah, it's superbowl night [20:03] but I think fans will be elsewhere [20:05] 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.
