[08:24] which book is relevant to study about controlling the screen. something like Ctrl + Alt + L but happening in the source code? [08:28] hi kodez [08:28] later guys [08:29] hi kilos [08:42] hmmmm [08:43] kodez: python socket programming [08:43] zeref: where can I study more about that? [08:44] zeref: i want to develop a program that manages kiosk terminals [08:45] i've not found a book about python sockets, but there are many tutorials online [08:46] kiosk terminals??? [08:46] lemme google that [08:49] hmmm [08:52] zeref: ty [08:53] zeref: is writting a GUI going to solve blocking a person accessing the kiosk terminal without permission? [08:56] zeref: a conditional GUI that hides if the username and password is correct? [08:57] i'd first write a text based one, then if it works, add a GUI [08:58] zeref: i am failing to follow you. [09:00] for the program, first code it without a GUI, test it out, if it works then you can add a GUI [09:01] zeref: k [09:02] for the GUI are you planning to us wxwidgets ot qt? [09:03] *use *or [09:13] happy day you geeks [09:13] Maaz: coffee on [09:13] * Maaz puts the kettle on [09:16] zeref: nothing specific at the moment [09:17] Coffee's ready for kbmonkey! [14:43] sjoe inetpro lyk of daar n groot storm van jhb af na ons kom [14:44] hi bk [14:44] grr [14:44] hi kbmonkey [14:46] bbl [15:02] This problem report is damaged and cannot be processed. [15:02] ValueError('need more than 1 value to unpack',) [15:02] xubuntu xchat sucks some [15:03] the preferences alert options dont work\ [15:03] grrr [15:18] hi Kilos [15:19] shame your xchat is borked? :p [15:20] no it works but cant get bloeps going on messages to me [15:21] so gotta keep looking here if there any messages [15:21] grrrr [15:22] beeps? [15:22] ha ha. yes my irssi doesnt bloep either [15:22] and xubuntu comes with xchat as default [15:22] /set bell_beeps on [15:22] and i run a command to try make iftop see ppp0 and whole pc goes slow [15:22] grrr [15:23] ya beeps [15:23] then /set beep_msg_level msg notice hilight [15:23] yes iftop is a admin tool, not meant for everyday use [15:23] dLimit, must i do that here or in the terminal [15:23] unless you troubleshoot a network [15:23] No in irssi [15:24] Oh wait its /set beep_msg_level msgs notice hilight [15:24] ah, thanks dLimit :) [15:25] And make sure kernel module pcspkr is loaded [15:25] i wrote a script to monitor messages and print them to a conky output. but that got annoying. [15:25] There is a way to play a sound through default alsa sound card but I forgot how that is done [15:26] mpg123 [15:26] hehe [15:26] or just play [15:27] this xchat gives you the option to use alsa or pulse but neither work [15:27] but pidgin works kiff [15:28] doesnt each app have it's own volume level? [15:28] in xubuntu i mean? if it uses pulse...? [15:28] just guessing here, not too familiar with what xubuntu uses [15:30] in settings preferences you get options to beep in alerts and flash icons but they dont work even though xchat looks the same [15:33] those are window manager signals. perhaps xchat has gnome support but not kde [15:33] does xchat come on xubuntu by default or is there another irc client it uses? [15:34] i almost imagine there is a kde one.. [15:34] kbmonkey, ya default [15:35] quassel is the kde one [15:37] xchat and pidgin are default on xubuntu [15:37] quassel will probably give you proper sound+notifications [15:37] many many megs data to get quassel [15:37] lotsa kde stuff [15:40] but xubuntu has kde and quassel already?? [15:41] im confused Kilos :) [15:41] no [15:41] xfce [15:41] ooooh [15:41] you thinking of kubuntu [15:41] you wanna borrow my email addy [15:42] ah sharp man [15:47] lol [15:47] * Kilos cackles. kbdomdonner [15:49] or wwdomdonner [15:51] borrow it for what now? [15:51] for the domdonner bit [15:51] quassel in xubuntu [15:52] ha ha! jou duiwel [15:52] ha ha ha [15:52] ill be back after supper oom [15:52] cool enjoy [15:53] ill be back later too. take a break from xubuntu [15:53] How long does it take for pinterest to send invites? [15:54] I've requested it on all my addresses and still nothing [15:57] I NEED to use it before it becomes cool [16:10] Maaz, coffee on [16:10] * Maaz flips the salt-timer [16:14] Coffee's ready for Kilos! [16:15] Maaz, danke [16:15] Bitteschön [17:22] yo geeks [17:23] you called ? [17:23] hi Mezenir [17:24] how goes [17:24] thought i was just rattling the cage [17:24] is there a reason it would be a bad idea to run an ntpd daemon ? [17:24] ok ty and there? [17:24] on the one hand it seems nice to always have time synced [17:24] so yah [17:24] what does it do first [17:24] pretty good thanks [17:25] it asks a central server for the current time [17:25] what do you wanna sync time with [17:25] and sets your system to it [17:25] ah [17:25] you can sync time with server without installing anything [17:26] somewhere in settings is something you activate and it does it automatically [17:27] i member i disbled mine because it checks every 10 secs or so [17:27] big storm brewing here [17:27] looks like hail :/ [17:27] we had one earlier kbmonkey [17:36] mmm [17:36] maybe its installed by default in xubuntu [17:36] and you had to disable it [17:36] no that was with maverick [17:36] or that [17:36] what are you using [17:36] arch [17:36] ah [17:37] learned a lot [17:37] but it takes me a while [17:37] lol [17:38] it takes some of us even longer, dont worry [17:38] hehe [17:47] bbl [18:21] Maaz, coffee on [18:21] * Maaz flips the salt-timer [18:24] a:\install [18:24] grrr [18:24] what a:\ its a stiffy [18:24] whats a stiffy [18:25] Coffee's ready for Kilos!

[18:41] I am last time I checked [18:42] did you have a good holiday magespawn [18:42] Was refering to being wrong and not right about the holiday [18:42] Yes did work around the house got a web and mail server running on my home pc [18:43] human rights only count if you are stinking rich [18:43] well done and what about the kids windows [18:44] I am using a package called xampp which runs on windows [18:49] Has apache, msyql and such to run a website plus email server ftp server [18:49] does the second p stand for pop? [18:49] good [18:49] lol [18:50] Yes runs pop and imap [18:50] cool [18:50] do you have a fixed IP then? [18:50] linked to a domain? [18:51] No this is just for home at the moment for practice, i am looking into setting up a WUG [18:51] ah, cool [18:51] whereabout are you? [18:51] Hluhluwe [18:51] in the kruger park? [18:52] No KZN [18:52] banlam natal north coast [18:52] * Banlam tries to figure out why he's confused [18:52] i know the name [18:53] think family might have a place there [18:53] Whobare the family? [18:53] rennie [18:54] don't know who owns the house though [18:54] Where does she work? [18:54] no, it's a holiday house [18:55] lol [18:56] * Banlam goes to google maps [18:56] In the town? Or on one of the game reserves? [18:57] Kilos has what has been happening with the linux studies? [18:58] magespawn, i been fighting xubuntu and not looked at studies for a week [18:58] Do you know if any one else has? [18:59] xubuntu gives lotsa probs and does stupid things [18:59] i dont think so [18:59] everyone is too busy [19:00] Though I was the only one slacking off, do not feel so bad now. [19:00] ha ha ha i will get back to it as soon as xubuntu works [19:00] What are you still fighting with? [19:01] stupid things like no sound in xchat [19:01] and it shows 2 homes and archives but they arent the same [19:02] and synaptic doesnt see whats in archives copied there from cli [19:02] so wants to download again what you already have [19:03] also i use same commands that i used for maverick to get iftop to use ppp0 not eth0 and pc goes slow [19:03] grrr [19:04] if it wasnt for data use everytime i would have tried the alternate cd by now [19:04] Sounds like a conflict, thats my experience when things slow up a lot [19:05] Is there some near you with iso? [19:05] i have the alt cd as well [19:05] got them from the fly [19:05] Just the updates then, which can be a bit [19:07] updating is tween 20 and 40 meg if you copy all packages over properly [19:07] otherwise its 2 to 300m [19:08] What a pain. [19:08] but its crazy things like if you look in home you should get a file .xchat2 [19:08] it isnt there [19:08] yeah kinda frustrating [19:09] must have been a bad install i think [19:09] Something went wrong somewhere that us for certain. [19:10] Is [19:10] yeah i think so too. lucky i didnt upgrade my maverick [19:10] so i got one good reliable os [19:12] I see gc is still with us. [19:12] ya i have coffee now and again to keep her company [19:13] but she is very cheeky [19:13] Assuming female are we? Or are all bots female?
