| Kilos | hi inetpro | 07:40 |
| Kilos | you wet? | 07:40 |
| inetpro | Kilos: heh, in this weather I rather get to work and back on two wheels | 07:41 |
| Kilos | as long as you got good rain gear its not too bad | 07:42 |
| inetpro | you can double the time in your car in this weather | 07:42 |
| Kilos | in any weather actually | 07:43 |
| Kilos | bikes have major advantages | 07:43 |
| inetpro | Kilos: no, it's extra bad in a car in rainy weather | 07:44 |
| Kilos | just go careful. peeps in cars drive as if it was dry | 07:45 |
| inetpro | true | 07:45 |
| inetpro | but they don't have a lot of room to manouver | 07:45 |
| Kilos | oh ya | 07:45 |
| inetpro | so in some ways it's less risky | 07:46 |
| inetpro | the bigger risk is the wet road surface | 07:46 |
| Kilos | youre right | 07:46 |
| magespawn | howdy kilos inetpro | 07:46 |
| inetpro | hello magespawn | 07:47 |

| Kilos | 6g | 10:56 |
| Kilos | i am scared to change anything on my working maverick | 10:57 |
| magespawn | not sure if it will keep the changes or if it is only for the session | 10:57 |
| magespawn | did run a friends laptop from a flash drive for over a year | 10:57 |
| Kilos | wow. using the flash as a livecd kinda thing or an actual installation on the flash | 10:58 |
| magespawn | cannot remember the details I think an install on the flash because the live cd version does not save things like emails or documents if I am remembering correctly | 11:04 |
| Kilos | ah | 11:04 |
| magespawn | got to go to parents day at the school see y'all later. | 11:04 |
| Kilos | go safe | 11:05 |
| Squirm | good afternoon | 11:46 |
| Kilos | inetpro, has kubuntu got a synaptic package manager? | 12:12 |
| Kilos | ians struggling | 12:13 |
| Kilos | what is Kpackagekit | 12:15 |
| Kilos | update manager or synaptic | 12:16 |
| magespawn | back | 12:16 |
| Kilos | hi back | 12:16 |
| magespawn | I use that to update the one kubuntu machine I have | 12:16 |
| Kilos | i am looking for the mark all updates and fix broken that gnomes synaptic has | 12:17 |
| magespawn | have not used it that much hold on | 12:18 |
| magespawn | going there now | 12:18 |
| Kilos | ty | 12:18 |
| superfly | Kilos: kpackagekit in older kubuntus | 12:21 |
| superfly | and qapt/muon in newer kubunts | 12:21 |
| superfly | *kubuntus | 12:21 |
| superfly | I just use aptitude | 12:21 |
| Kilos | he is using natty superfly | 12:22 |
| magespawn | aptitude from the command line superfly ? | 12:23 |
| Kilos | yip aptitude rocks | 12:23 |
| Kilos | but he had his update tool running while out and it hung halfway | 12:23 |
| superfly | magespawn: yu[ | 12:25 |
| superfly | *yup | 12:25 |
| magespawn | xkill? | 12:25 |
| Kilos | i made him reboot | 12:27 |
| Kilos | so hard to try help when you dont know the OS | 12:27 |
| inetpro | Kilos: Ctrl+Esc will bring up System Activity akin to the Microsoft Windows' Task Manager | 12:28 |
| magespawn | yes | 12:28 |
| inetpro | It shows a list of currently running processes, along with their CPU usage, Memory usage, and various other pieces of information. | 12:28 |
| Kilos | ty inetpro | 12:29 |
| inetpro | obviously you can do all that on the cli as well | 12:29 |
| inetpro | htop | 12:29 |
| Kilos | using win7 and all the hand palm fingerprint readers has made his kop plat | 12:31 |
| magespawn | htop looks useful | 12:40 |
| Kilos | he has a win7 and kubuntu installed and win has crashed bad so i am trying to get him to use boot-repair from his pc and the work drive as second drive and hopefully boot-repair will fix it | 12:53 |
| Kilos | win likes messing up the mbr methinks | 12:53 |
| magespawn | grip or lilo can handle both but the windows one can't | 12:56 |
| magespawn | grub | 12:56 |
| Kilos | yeah thats why its called winsucks | 12:56 |
| Kilos | boot-repair normally fixes everything | 12:57 |
| Kilos | good tool to have | 12:57 |
| magespawn | yes has helped me | 12:58 |
| Kilos | Maaz, google boot-repair for ubuntu | 12:58 |
| Maaz | Kilos: "Boot-Repair - Community Ubuntu Documentation" https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair :: "RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Community Ubuntu ..." https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows :: "RecoveryMode - Ubuntu Wiki" https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode :: "Boot-Repair - Simple tool to repair frequent boot problems | Ubuntu ..." http://www.ubuntugeek.com/boot-repair-simple-tool-to-repai | 12:58 |

| psydroid | hi Kilos | 18:10 |
| zeref | hi Kilos | 18:14 |
| psydroid | hi zeref | 18:36 |
| inetpro | hmm... | 19:16 |
| inetpro | something telling me we have a problem | 19:16 |
| inetpro | Maaz: za.archive.ubuntu.com down? | 19:16 |
| Maaz | inetpro: *blink* | 19:16 |
| dLimit | I think it,s down inetpro | 19:17 |
| inetpro | Maaz: is za.archive.ubuntu.com down? | 19:17 |
| Maaz | inetpro: Yes, http://za.archive.ubuntu.com/ is down (Server is not responding) | 19:18 |
| dLimit | Somebody's going to have a tough night? | 19:19 |
| inetpro | Maaz: tenet | 19:19 |
| Maaz | The Tertiary Education and Research Network (TENET) hosts amongst others the country mirror of the ubuntu archives. The network operations center (NOC) can be reached via email at noc@tenet.ac.za. Website: http://www.tenet.ac.za/ | 19:19 |
| inetpro | dLimit: why? | 19:19 |
| Kilos | try that ftp sun one it hardly ever goes down | 19:19 |
| dLimit | inetpro: I don't know many people that like fixing thing on way to midnight on a friday | 19:20 |
| inetpro | dLimit: true | 19:21 |
| inetpro | Kilos: the sun site is not listed as an official mirror | 19:24 |
| Tonberry | huh | 19:24 |
| inetpro | only telkom SAIX and Tenet, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors | 19:24 |
| Tonberry | its in the ubuntu mirror selection menu tho | 19:24 |
| inetpro | or am I looking at the wrong list? | 19:24 |
| Tonberry | not an official cd mirror tho | 19:25 |
| Tonberry | in software sources you can pick ftp.sun.ac.za | 19:25 |
| inetpro | Tonberry: thanks | 19:25 |
| Kilos | thats the one Tonberry | 19:27 |
| Kilos | never goes down | 19:28 |
| Tonberry | yes | 19:28 |
| Tonberry | very strange | 19:28 |
| Tonberry | considering how the rest of the network is doing | 19:28 |
| Kilos | inetpro, in synaptic when you look by the sa repos it is there | 19:28 |
| Kilos | in software centre too | 19:30 |
| inetpro | Kilos: perl -p -i.bak -e "s#za.archive.ubuntu.com#ftp.sun.ac.za#" sources.list is quicker | 19:34 |
| Kilos | is that a command inetpro for cli? | 19:35 |
| inetpro | Kilos: yep that is a search and replace perl oneliner | 19:36 |
| Kilos | wow ty sir | 19:36 |
| inetpro | Kilos: it will search through each line for za.archive.ubuntu.com and replace it with ftp.sun.ac.za | 19:37 |
| inetpro | it will edit the file inline while it will also make a backup with .bak | 19:38 |
| Kilos | thats cool ty | 19:38 |
| Kilos | i always have to wait for synaptic or software centre to do it | 19:38 |
| inetpro | well, I guess it's easy enough | 19:39 |
| inetpro | easy to make mistakes in the cli | 19:40 |
| dLimit | Mistakes only happen when you are root... | 19:41 |
