[00:05] <dwatkins>   
[00:05] <dwatkins> oops
[00:05] <penguin42> exactly
[00:14] <gbyers_> why is there no ops?
[00:21] <penguin42> all drunk on jubilee wine?
[00:22] <dwatkins> I thought ops tended to be given out to the relevant people only when it's being used.
[06:29] <Knightwise> morning everyone :)
[07:09] <brobostigon> good morning everyone,
[09:31] <shauno> I never realised irc observed bank holidays
[09:44] <popey> morning all
[10:23] <popey> nice bug 1007521 is fixed
[11:02] <Knightwise> afternoon dudes
[12:19] <DJones>  Afternoon all
[12:19] <popeymeme> Greetings
[12:19] <DJones> Greetings to the unusual nick
[12:20] <popeymeme> :-)
[12:21] <popeymeme> There's not much going on today
[12:22] <DJones> No, nice and relaxing apart from defrosting a freezer
[12:23] <popeymeme> I was just phlogging
[12:24] <popeymeme> Most of my systems are now on 12.04
[12:24] <popeymeme> Apart from the oldest PC, which 12.04 won't install on
[12:24] <popey> uhoh
[12:26] <popeymeme> On the old PC I don't think it's so much the OS itself as the 12.04 installer which runs out of memory
[12:28] <hoover> hi folks
[12:28] <popeymeme> hi
[12:30] <popey> DJones: i did ours last week, so much nicer having drawers that actually move now ☺
[12:30] <popeymeme> :-)
[12:31] <DJones> popey: Thats what we're hoping will happen, we've got a dog sat looking at the freezer listening/watching to chunks of ice falling
[12:32] <popeymeme> The think about defrosting is that there never seems to be a convenient time to do it, so it gets endlessly postponed
[12:32] <DJones> This is true, we've been doing ours next weekend since about Christmas 2010
[12:32] <popeymeme> Icebergs ahoy
[12:33] <popey> yeah, we have never done outs
[12:33] <popey> *ours
[12:33] <popey> i waited till we were a bit "mother hubbard"
[12:34] <DJones> +1 Trouble is my wife keeps buying food
[12:34] <popeymeme> Of course what's needed is an embedded linux machine to measure the amount of ice, and then bitch about it on Twitter
[12:34] <DJones> I keep telling her that you can survive a couple of months without eating is you really have to
[13:10] <astromech> yoyoyo
[13:11] <astromech> kinda quiet here today,  all hung over ?
[13:38] <mattt> knightwise: had a cup of cider yesterday, twas it :)
[13:41] <knightwise> hey matt  i think you should have worn a lifejacked
[13:41] <knightwise> man did you guys have rain or what
[13:41] <mattt> rained quite a bit yesterday
[13:42] <mattt> today, haven't seen any rain but it's threatened all day
[13:43] <knightwise> here its pouring
[13:43] <knightwise> damn   i keep making typos,  my macbook air has a qwerty keyboard, all of my other machines have azerty
[13:43] <knightwise> installed ubuntu on the macbook air 11.6 inch yesterday
[13:43] <knightwise> looks great, keyboard mapping is not perfect though
[13:46] <mattt> knightwise: where is here ?
[13:49] <dwatkins> nice and sunny in Edinburgh right now
[13:49] <knightwise> here = eindhoven , netherlands
[13:55] <MartijnVdS> Edinhoven? :P
[13:58] <mattt> dwatkins: bugger, shouldn't it be pouring up there ?
[13:58] <dwatkins> mattt: you'd think, but the weather's been really nice here this year
[13:59] <mattt> dwatkins: that's it, i'm moving up
[13:59] <dwatkins> it's really nice here, I reccomend Edinburgh.
[14:02] <mattt> dwatkins: be thankful i'm not really moving anywhere any time soon :)  but i like edinburgh, it's a beautiful city
[14:02] <dwatkins> I moved here about 18 months ago, my only regret is choosing BT as an ISP ;)
[14:02] <knightwise> MartijnVdS: yep, i work for a dutch multinational
[14:02] <knightwise> live in belgium
[14:02] <knightwise> work in holland
[14:02] <knightwise> and do an english podcast
[14:07] <mattt> dwatkins: from where ?
[14:08] <dwatkins> mattt: Tilehurst/Reading
[14:08] <MartijnVdS> knightwise: Tomtom or Philips? :)
[14:09] <mattt> dwatkins: oh, that's where i just moved to :-/
[14:10] <dwatkins> mattt: heh, not RH30 by any chance?
[14:10] <dwatkins> oops, RG30
[14:10] <knightwise> brb, drive home
[14:10] <dwatkins> safe trip, knightwise
[14:10] <mattt> dwatkins: RG8
[14:10] <dwatkins> mattt: ah, not far though
[14:11] <dwatkins> My favourite pub in Reading is the Back of Beyond. I gather others on here go there sometimes.
[14:11] <dwatkins> They do a great curry
[14:12] <mattt> dwatkins: haven't been to that one actually, i usually eat/drink outside of reading to avoid having to pay for parking :P
[14:12] <mattt> unless i'm going for dim sum or a burrito
[14:13] <dwatkins> mattt: yeah, I know what you mean - there's the Queens Road car park near the BoB though, it's not too expensive
[14:14] <mattt> dwatkins: what took you to edinburgh?  job?
[14:15] <dwatkins> mattt: partly, there was also a woman involved ;)
[14:15] <mattt> dwatkins: heh, i should have known
[14:15] <mattt> :)
[14:16] <dwatkins> I wouldn't have just moved up here for her, though - it's a great place to live, especially as I'm within walking distance of so many great shops and the town itself
[14:17] <mattt> dwatkins: careful, everything you said is logged and searchable on the wider 'net :P
[14:18] <mattt> *everything you say
[14:18] <dwatkins> hehe, yeah
[14:18] <dwatkins> you could probably pinpoint my location within a mile or two from that
[14:19] <mattt> dwatkins: was more concerned what you said about her :P
[14:20] <dwatkins> mattt: heh, I could say a whole lot more, suffice to say she's moved on
[14:20] <mattt> oh
[14:20] <mattt> well herp derp
[14:20] <dwatkins> indeed, her loss :)
[14:20] <mattt> dwatkins: did you ever go to the reading geek nights ?
[14:20] <dwatkins> (she's now living in London, and doesn't like the city)
[14:20] <dwatkins> mattt: no, I moved away just as I discovered people here were meeting up in the area
[14:21] <mattt> dwatkins: i've gone to one, it was ... ok
[14:22] <dwatkins> I hung out with my colleagues in Reading, they were pretty geeky ;)
[14:25] <mattt> dwatkins: i work in london, so don't know too many people around here
[14:25] <mattt> but kind of got that impression also :P
[16:18] <sage_> .
[16:22] <Flashtek> any tricks on getting ACPI etc working on a Dell Inspiron M5010 ?
[16:27] <SuperMatt> hey guys, how can I tell when anacron is next due to run?
[16:27] <SuperMatt> or indeed, are there any logs for it?
[16:28] <brobostigon> SuperMatt: cron output should be in /var/log/syslog
[16:29] <SuperMatt> hmm, I can see that cron.daily executed sucessfully, but it hasn't done what I need it to do
[16:30] <SuperMatt> I put a file in /etc/cron.daily/ and I don't think it has executed it
[16:30] <brobostigon> have you checked the format etc, is correct in that file?
[16:31] <SuperMatt> I didn't have #! /bin/bash at the start, it seems
[16:31] <SuperMatt> that should be it
[16:31] <SuperMatt> ta
[16:37] <Myrtti> oh no, DoE in hospital? ;___;
[16:37] <MartijnVdS> overexerted yesterday?
[16:38] <Myrtti> bladder infection :-|
[16:38]  * MartijnVdS doesn't want to know what DoE + Queen did to celebrate
[16:38] <MartijnVdS> that made DoE get a bladder infection
[16:38] <Myrtti> if it's bladder infection, it's been going on for a while already
[16:40] <MartijnVdS> and that a week before his 91st birthday
[16:59] <dogmatic69> Hi all
[16:59] <dogmatic69> just switched to eth0 \o/
[16:59] <MartijnVdS> as opposed to?
[16:59] <dogmatic69> got some of those eth over mains
[17:00] <dogmatic69> wifi
[17:00] <dogmatic69> would drop connection 20+ times per day and just had enough
[17:01] <dogmatic69> now my dns is not working though :/
[17:02] <MartijnVdS> dogmatic69: not just dhcp?
[17:03] <dogmatic69> MartijnVdS: I have a blade server that has all my dev code (php etc) that I set up with bind9
[17:03] <dogmatic69> so it handles *.dev sites
[17:03] <dogmatic69> well, when I set my dns server to the blade. all others are just bypased
[17:04] <dogmatic69> Cant do it at the router level atm as I have a sky router :/
[17:05] <MartijnVdS> dogmatic69: you can put it in your dhclient.conf
[17:05] <dogmatic69> where about is that?
[17:05] <MartijnVdS> dogmatic69: /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf
[17:05] <MartijnVdS> dogmatic69: there's a line with "#prepend domain-name-servers"
[17:06] <MartijnVdS> dogmatic69: if you remove the "#" and replace 127.0.0.1 with the IP of your DNS server, it'll always add your own DNS server to the list (as the first one)
[17:06] <dogmatic69> nice
[17:07] <dogmatic69> Let me check that out.
[17:08] <dogmatic69> Just checking my blade still has the same IP address. The DHCP on the router was set to make it 192.168.0.2 but my pc lost its config switching from wifi to eth. I guess the mac is for the wifi dongle
[17:09] <MartijnVdS> DHCP servers tend to do that ;)
[17:09] <dogmatic69> the Sky router interface is so crap. Can never find what I am looking for

[18:19] <buzz_> popey, what was the link again for the openelec images for raspberry pi done by someone on this channel ?
[18:20] <buzz_> aah. got it. kvarley's site.
[18:20] <buzz_> kvarley, (thanks btw for making these available)
[18:22] <popey> http://kvarley.co.uk/RaspberryPi/OpenELEC/
[18:22] <popey> oh
[18:22] <popey> sorry ☺
[18:39] <buzz_> should the raspberry pi output something via hdmi on power on with no sdcard in ?
[18:47] <gbyers_> hi
[18:47]  * gbyers_ is away: Away
[18:48] <kvarley> buzz_: No problem =]
[18:48] <kvarley> popey: Thanks for all the linking =]
[18:48] <popey> np
[18:48] <kvarley> buzz_: Once you have run my image once you may find it easier to just download the binaries of xbmc and replace them
[18:49] <buzz_> ok thanks. ive yet to get a picture out of the thing
[18:49] <buzz_> going to try another sdcard
[18:49] <kvarley> buzz_: First time may take a while since it currently unpacks XBMC on-the-fly
[19:01] <kvarley> Easiest way to make an ext4 partition readable and writable by all ?
[19:07] <buzz_> kvarley, mount with umask=000 ? #
[19:13] <buzz_> phew. just a dodgy sdcard
[19:13] <buzz_> all working
[21:23] <brobostigon> qhy wasnt ringo, invited to play the drums with paul, weird, ?
[21:24] <DJones> I'm still holding out for either the sex pistols or queen to play God save the queen
[21:24] <brobostigon> brian may, :) again.
[21:25] <DJones> Or maybe killer queen, followed by god by save the queen
[21:25] <brobostigon> i dont think the sex piatols, is going to happen.
[21:25] <brobostigon> pistols*
[21:26] <DJones> me neither, maybe not quite appropriate, it'd be like elton john singing candle in the wind
[21:26] <brobostigon> DJones: he did that earlier.
[21:26] <DJones> Shame, I missed that
[21:27] <brobostigon> DJones: and i was thinking, somehow charles must be wriggling in his seat, sitting next to who his sitting next to.
[21:28] <DJones> :)
[21:28] <brobostigon> for GF, etc, who he well, yes, we all know the history.
[22:15] <AlanBell> brobostigon: he didn't do candle in the wind
[22:15] <brobostigon> AlanBell: sorry, i thought i heard it.
[22:37] <dogmatic69> is it possible to go from encrypted home folder to normal?
[22:42]  * penguin42 subscribes to a over 10 year old mozilla bug
[22:45] <penguin42> I guess the chances of it getting fixed are pretty slim
