Kilossorry tumbleweed . does that mean one cant get debdelta to work until launchpad has done something there?15:30
Kilosmust there be a debdelta sever or whatever by them?15:31
tumbleweedKilos: there's currently no debdelta server that I know of15:34
Kilosthats what i am trying to understand. must there be one before debdelta can work. as in it cant be made to work from ones pc?15:35
tumbleweedyes, you need to get the deltas from somewhere15:38
Kilosoh ok ty. i was under the impression that it would just see whats on one machine and compare and download the diffs15:39
tumbleweedyes15:40
tumbleweedsomeone needs to provide the diffs15:40
Kilosty tumbleweed 15:41
Kiloslol i even tried debhelper to get it going15:45
tumbleweeddebhelper is a packaging tool (used in almost every package's buliding)15:45
Kilosi read somewhere that it integrates the package so tried that. didnt know it has to be done at launchpad15:49
Kiloslive and learn15:49
tumbleweedwell, anyone can host a debdelta server15:49
tumbleweedthere might be one for ubuntu somewhere...15:50

Kilossjoe17:43
Kiloshis xchat is very sick17:48
dLimitShould be using irssi17:49
Kilosno man xchat rocks17:49
dLimitOne cannot run xchat in screen17:50
Kilos? in screen17:50
dLimitman screen17:51
dLimitScreen  is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical ter‐ minal between several processes (typically  interactive  shells).17:51
dLimit^^ from the man17:51
Kilosoh they terminal windows17:53
dLimitYeah like a terminal multiplexer but the great thing is you can run it on a remote computer then ssh into that remote pc and attach that screen session to your local computer.17:54
KilosdLimit, are you using unity?17:54
dLimitHell no!17:54
Kilosthats too clever for me17:54
dLimitI'm using fluxbox17:55
Kiloslol17:55
kbmonkeyfine Kilos and yourself man?17:55
dLimitI like all the non-mainstream window managers17:55
Kilosgood ty kbmonkey 17:55
kbmonkeyisn't fluxbox based on blackbox? :)17:56
kbmonkeyusing openbox here17:56
dLimitopenbox ftw! Yeah flux and openbox is both based on it I believe17:57
kbmonkeyand irssi he he17:57
kbmonkeyusing PyTyle to turn stacking into tiling wm17:58
kbmonkeyoh been trying screen recently, i get it but bet there's a ton I need to learn17:59
dLimitI need to use PyTyle. I just recently switched back to flux from Awesome-de so I got kinda use to tiling18:00
kbmonkeypytyle has xmonad like navigation18:01
kbmonkeyaaah I see, I closed my ssh connection and my irssi still runs. cool =D18:03
kbmonkeyyou can get a shell account at bshellz.net. ssh in gives you mutt, irssi, public_html 18:04
KilosdLimit, how do you start irssi to here?18:04
kbmonkeylike kbmonkey.bshells.net18:04
Kilosdont say man irssi18:05
kbmonkeyhe he, you don't dig mans do you :p18:05
Kiloslol they hard to understand man18:06
kbmonkeyyou enter commands like '/server irc.freenode.org'18:06
Kiloslooks like its a bit job to get irssi going18:06
kbmonkeyor edit its config to auto connect and join channels18:06
kbmonkeynot really18:07
kbmonkeyyou edit ~/.irssi/config18:08
Kilosok i have a look18:08
dLimitYeah there are mainly 3 commands /network, /server and channel18:09
Kilosgedit opened 2 pages edit and conf18:11
Kilosboth empty18:11
kbmonkeydLimit: do you auto identify or enter your irc login manually?18:11
Kilosmaybe i need to run it once first18:11
kbmonkeyrun it first18:11
dLimitNo, identify with the -autosendcmd flag to /network18:11
kbmonkeyi did a diff on my config vs master18:11
dLimitI connecto to 4 different servers18:12
kbmonkeyalso use autosend. just wondering about keeping the paswd in the config file18:12
dLimitI mean networks18:12
Kilosthis is what i gotta do to run it hey18:12
Kilos irssi  [-dv!?]  [-c  server]  [-p port] [-n nickname] [-w password] [-h18:12
Kilos       hostname]18:12
kbmonkeyjust enter irssi 18:13
Kilosi did18:13
Kilosblank window18:13
dLimitKilos: use the -c and -n flag18:14
Kiloscursor flashing next to staus at the bottom18:14
dLimitirssi -c irc.freenode.net -n Kilos18:14
Kilosok18:14
dLimityou will have to identify manually after that18:14
kbmonkeyKilos: /server irc.freenode.org18:15

Kilosthere we go18:22
Kilosthis is like weechat18:23
kbmonkeyyes its is hey18:23
kbmonkeyweechat is probably easier to configure18:23
kbmonkeyirssi is more brainy18:23
Kilosthere is still nothing in that conf file18:24
Kilosdo i just add the commands i used to get here?18:25
kbmonkeyconfig18:25
kbmonkeyno, it has a certain structure18:25
kbmonkeyperhaps if you exit it writes the config out18:25
Kiloslol ok i try18:26
kbmonkeyi used a tut18:26

kbmonkeyat least its easier than using telnet for irc ;)18:33
Kilos_they been discussing it since 10.0418:34
Kilos_yeah its like weechat but more serious geek oriented than xchat18:34
Kilos_hi mage18:34
Kilos_grr 18:34
magespawnHowdy18:34
Kilos_this doesnt show who is online or anything18:35
kbmonkeyit has the advantage of not needing X to run18:35
Kilos_lol18:35
kbmonkeyso you can ssh into a server, and use irc without windows18:35
Kilos_me dunno ssh18:36
kbmonkeyit does, it shows you the users list when you join a channel. and you get addon scripts that show a user bar18:36
* kbmonkey doesnt use the user list even in xchat18:36
magespawnSecure Shell18:36
Kilos_ah i did man18:37
dLimittype /names to see who is online18:37
