|---|---|---|
| SmilyBorg_w | Morning :-) | 06:34 |
| === SmilyBorg_w is now known as SmilyBorg | ||
| superfly | morning Kilos, SmilyBorg_w | 06:34 |
| SmilyBorg | not sure I would call this early though. work started 34 minutes ago | 06:34 |
| Kilos | did you's get the sites updated superfly | 06:35 |
| Kilos | hehe | 06:35 |
| superfly | Kilos: which sites? | 06:35 |
| Kilos | those you and steven were doing? | 06:35 |
| Kilos | or i can go read logs if you tell me how | 06:36 |
| Kilos | yo sflr | 06:38 |
| sflr | good morning all | 06:38 |
| superfly | Kilos: we weren't fixing anything, really... | 06:38 |
| sflr | & Kilos | 06:38 |
| superfly | Kilos: sflr just has some ideas and I said I'm happy to assist where necessary | 06:39 |
| sflr | superfly: got the Events working on the site and added Twitter | 06:39 |
| sflr | Kilos: go have a look | 06:40 |
| Kilos | link please | 06:40 |
| sflr | we can postpone Facebook , because it only supports Pages, not Groups :| | 06:40 |
| sflr | http://ubuntu-za.org/ | 06:40 |
| Kilos | oh that one | 06:40 |
| Kilos | ty | 06:41 |
| superfly | nice, sflr | 06:42 |
| sflr | superfly: can you add me on Google Analytics to see the reports? I saw there are some 404s I want to clean up and put in some SEO content. Would be nice to rank #1 for "Ubuntu South-Africa" :) | 06:43 |
| superfly | sflr: how did you get the events working? | 06:43 |
| * superfly couldn't figure that one out... then again, he didn't try very hard either | 06:43 | |
| Kilos | just refresh me on the open id thing please is it http:launchpad.net then ~mail addy | 06:45 |
| Kilos | eish http://launchpad.net~mail | 06:46 |
| sflr | superfly: The main problem was that it is a re-occuring meeting, and Google creates events up until year 2045! I think the script just bombs out. I also created a new Ubuntu-za calendar, and set the right time-zone, etc. I set the meeting to end in 3 years time | 06:46 |
| Kilos | bit of a thumper going here | 06:46 |
| superfly | sflr: GA done | 06:46 |
| sflr | thanks superfly | 06:46 |
| superfly | we have a LOT of traffic from China 0_0 | 06:47 |
| superfly | I can only presume they are spammers | 06:47 |
| sflr | yeah, i saw there were attempts to scrape member contact pages. also some XSS on the search box | 06:49 |
| Kilos | opera is blocking out that captcha image | 06:50 |
| Kilos | grrr | 06:50 |
| sflr | superfly: maybe you could update Drupal to latest version on the site? | 06:50 |
| charl | morning all | 06:51 |

| Kilos | yeah that is serious winter weather for durbs | 07:52 |
| SmilyBorg | I'm not happy unless its above 23 | 07:52 |
| Kilos | lol same as me | 07:52 |
| SmilyBorg | trouble is that if I dont move, I get icey cold | 07:52 |
| Kilos | dont go to jhb during winter then | 07:52 |
| SmilyBorg | and I spend a lot of time in front of PCs not moving | 07:52 |
| SmilyBorg | hehe, was in JHB in winter for a weekend when I was younger. NEVER again | 07:53 |

| charl | then i walk indoors, the botswanas are sitting there, shivering with scarfs and jackets on, and the heater burning next to them | 07:58 |
| charl | in the summer, it would be 30 degrees, i am about to die so i want to put the air conditioning on | 07:58 |
| charl | then the botswanas get angry because they are cold | 07:58 |
| Kilos | lol 30°c is great weather | 07:58 |
| charl | eh | 07:59 |
| Kilos | swimming fishing etc | 07:59 |

| Kilos | how far is that from melbourne. saw inna mail from facebook tara says house shook some but nothing broke | 12:42 |
| Kilos | ty inetpro | 12:43 |
| inetpro | Kilos: ...Today’s earthquake struck near the southeast coast of Australia 10 km southwest of Moe, the closest population centre, and 120 km southwest of Melbourne,... | 12:44 |
| inetpro | According to the USGS, the earthquake struck at a depth of 9.9 km, making this a shallow event. Shaking lasted for 30 to 40 seconds, according to local accounts. | 12:44 |
| Kilos | oh my just memebered melbourne is in vic state | 12:44 |
| charl | thanks inetpro | 12:46 |
| charl | wow that sounds bad | 12:47 |
| charl | 5.3 ... well it could have been worse... | 12:47 |
| Kilos | yeah small one | 12:48 |
| sflr | that's the same earthquake. it was on tuesday, 19th | 12:48 |
| charl | yeah that shouldn't have created any serious damage | 12:48 |
| sflr | http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/usb000ajek#summary | 12:48 |

| sflr | that australian earthquake is really strange | 12:51 |
| inetpro | sflr: hmm... you sure that's the same as Tuesday? | 12:51 |
| charl | sflr: i don't think japan worries too much about earthquakes... i think it's the tsunamis that create the big problem | 12:52 |
| charl | on the positive side, they are well prepared for those | 12:53 |
| inetpro | that article is dated today | 12:53 |
| charl | but if a really big one comes... well we saw what happens then | 12:53 |
| sflr | yes inetpro, but USGS has the real time tracking. the time is the same. and i searched for Air Worldwide australia earthquake and news posts came up from the 20th with the same details and times. | 12:54 |
| inetpro | yikes! | 12:54 |
| sflr | sounds like a dodgy site: http://www.newsinsurances.co.uk/. haha | 12:55 |
| inetpro | I hate it when people publish articles referring to today without specifying it correctly | 12:55 |
| inetpro | sflr: true | 12:56 |
| sflr | its for SEO. lol | 12:56 |
| inetpro | Kilos: what did Tara say? when did she feel the shaking? | 12:58 |

| inetpro | Kilos: 32bit or 64bit? | 14:12 |
| charl | yeah was just about to ask the same question :) | 14:13 |
| charl | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 14:13 |
| Kilos | 32 please | 14:13 |
| charl | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso | 14:13 |
| charl | the second one then | 14:13 |
| Kilos | ty | 14:13 |
| charl | while on the topic, why isn't 12.04 on the za mirror http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-release/kubuntu/ ? | 14:13 |
| charl | last version on there is 11.10 | 14:14 |
| charl | Kilos: i assume you wanted the link to the desktop iso, not the alternate one? | 14:14 |
| inetpro | ahh, charl beat me to that | 14:14 |
| * inetpro was trying to find it on the za mirror | 14:14 | |
| charl | Kilos: the alternate is the one with the text installer | 14:15 |
| Kilos | ty charl. have you got the alt one too? | 14:15 |
| charl | Kilos: one sec | 14:15 |
| Kilos | ya its your working time inetpro | 14:15 |
| Kilos | so you forgiven | 14:15 |
| charl | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-alternate-i386.iso | 14:15 |
| inetpro | lol | 14:15 |
| Kilos | ty charl | 14:16 |
| charl | np | 14:16 |
| inetpro | charl: perhaps Symmetria can load it for us when he's got more disk space | 14:17 |
| charl | inetpro: oh yes, forgot about that already | 14:17 |
| charl | i would really like to know what is the difference between the ubuntu "amd64 mac" and "amd64 pc" builds | 14:18 |
| charl | i always ran the regular amd64 builds on my macbook | 14:18 |
| inetpro | charl: http://askubuntu.com/questions/37999/what-is-different-about-the-mac-iso-image | 14:19 |
| Kilos | is that amd cpu specific or will it be fine on intels too | 14:19 |
| smile | brb | 14:20 |
| inetpro | Kilos: should be fine on intel | 14:20 |
| charl | inetpro: ah that's very interesting, thanks | 14:20 |
| Kilos | ty inetpro | 14:20 |
| charl | so it's all got to do with booting | 14:20 |
| charl | i never had any issues with booting the regular amd64 builds, as a matter of fact, i did try the amd64+mac build once and i couldn't get it to boot | 14:20 |
| charl | but that all makes sense then, i think i have too new a version | 14:21 |
| charl | the instruction set should be identical to the pc because my macbook had a regular intel core i5 processor | 14:21 |
| inetpro | charl: interesting indeed | 14:21 |
| * inetpro stays as far as possible away from mac | 14:21 | |
| charl | generally i do that as well but i used to work for a company where everyone used a mac | 14:22 |
| charl | so i also got one (paid for by the company) | 14:22 |
| inetpro | and the worst of it all is the mouse | 14:22 |
| inetpro | I can't stand that thing | 14:22 |
| charl | i would never blow a ton of money on a (mostly) standard intel-based chipset with a nice casing | 14:23 |
| charl | i totally agree with you regarding the mouse, i used one for 30 mins and my hand got a cramp, no kidding | 14:23 |
| charl | the keyboard is also extremely "flat" | 14:23 |
| inetpro | for the nstuff I do I really don't need a mac | 14:23 |
| inetpro | s/nstuff/stuff/ | 14:24 |
| sflr | thats lots of stuff. haha | 14:24 |
| inetpro | sflr: exactly :-) | 14:24 |
| inetpro | but everyone else is welcome to use a mac | 14:24 |
| charl | the macbook has a nice large touchpad, so that's a positive, but you can't replace the battery without opening the whole thing up | 14:25 |
| charl | that is completely braindead | 14:25 |
| charl | the battery is the #1 thing you replace in a laptop and on a normal laptop you can just "click" the thing off | 14:25 |
| inetpro | charl: no, it's called lock-in | 14:25 |
| charl | and if you dispose the laptop, the lithium ion battery needs to be treated as chemical waste | 14:26 |
| charl | lol yeah a proprietary lock-in | 14:26 |
| sflr | charl, that's how they make you buy new one. I stopped using Apple products as soon as my Ipods battery died and found out the solution is to buy a new one. | 14:26 |
| charl | bah | 14:26 |
| SmilyBorg | apparently the battery is glued in in the new retina display mac book pro | 14:27 |
| charl | and then they have it about pollution and wasting the world's resources | 14:27 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: oh that is so evil | 14:27 |
| SmilyBorg | yup | 14:27 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 14:27 |
| sflr | specially that glue. is hazardous. haha | 14:27 |
| inetpro | SmilyBorg: don't tell Symmetria | 14:27 |
| charl | the apple has gotten rotten :) | 14:27 |
| inetpro | he loves the mac :-) | 14:28 |
| SmilyBorg | and the ram is soldered to the motherboard so you cant upgrade | 14:28 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: a couple of months ago i was looking at buying one of the new acer ultrabooks | 14:28 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: i got a demo model to play with, it was super light and i was quite keen to buy one | 14:29 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: then i decided against it for that exact reason - the ram is on-board and there are NO expansion slots | 14:29 |
| Kilos | ok who can modify this command to update the iso? | 14:29 |
| Kilos | zsync -i ubuntu.iso http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-release/precise/ubuntu-12.04.1-Desktop-i386.iso.zsync | 14:29 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: i do a lot of virtualisation and would like minimally 8GB of ram, preferably more | 14:29 |
| SmilyBorg | ya. ultrabooks are nice and they have their purpose, but they are not for everyone | 14:29 |
| charl | yup | 14:29 |
| SmilyBorg | ya, same here | 14:30 |
| charl | Kilos: sorry what exactly are you trying to do? | 14:30 |
| SmilyBorg | I'll deal with a bigger machine just to have 8-16GB ram and 700GB+ of hard drive | 14:30 |
| Kilos | update a downloaded iso before burning to cd charl | 14:30 |
| inetpro | Kilos: I think that link should be http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso.zsync | 14:31 |
| psydroid | charl, hi, Sitecom WL-180 v1 001 "Wireless Network 300N Cardbus Card" | 14:31 |
| charl | update the iso... ok | 14:31 |
| Kilos | ty inetpro | 14:31 |
| inetpro | Kilos: but hang on | 14:31 |
| Kilos | yes? | 14:31 |
| * Kilos hangs on | 14:32 | |
| inetpro | was that original kubuntu or ubuntu? | 14:32 |
| charl | oh now i see, sorry never used the zsync command before, had to go look it up | 14:32 |
| charl | makes sense now | 14:32 |
| inetpro | Kilos: and what version? | 14:32 |
| Kilos | he will download the 12.04 iso then we want to update it before burning to cd | 14:32 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: actually i don't really know if it matters that much anymore, i want to move my virtual machines onto a central server so i can use a smaller laptop | 14:33 |
| Kilos | same as i did with lucid | 14:33 |
| inetpro | Kilos: updates are not part of the release cd | 14:33 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: i'm connected pretty-much everywhere i am in any case so with rdp and ssh i can do whatever i need to do remotely | 14:33 |
| psydroid | hi inetpro | 14:33 |
| psydroid | hoi smile | 14:33 |
| SmilyBorg | charl: that works for me when I'm at home or the office, but not when I'm mobile | 14:33 |
| inetpro | psydroid: hi | 14:33 |
| inetpro | eish! my day not over yet | 14:34 |
| * inetpro bbl | 14:34 | |
| SmilyBorg | I prefer having too much power rather than not enough | 14:34 |
| charl | SmilyBorg: yeah, same here, i guess i'm just not "mobile" that much anymore, used to travel a lot but now it's just the 10-min commute between my home and office every day | 14:34 |
| charl | that's true | 14:34 |
| charl | psydroid: ah i see, i never really used that particular card | 14:35 |
| SmilyBorg | charl: ya, I'm mainly home or office bound these days, but I'm looking at running some classes soon so big laptop, or small laptop and drag small servers along | 14:35 |
| charl | bah dragging servers along is a pain | 14:35 |
| charl | especially on an airplane | 14:36 |
| charl | too heavy as well | 14:36 |
| SmilyBorg | ya | 14:36 |
| smile | hoi psydroid :) | 14:36 |
| SmilyBorg | I'm using HP MicroServers at the moment for test environments which are fine for draging around town, but not on a plane | 14:37 |
| charl | ah interesting | 14:38 |
| Kilos | inetpro, when you get back. that zsync command might work once kubuntu is on our mirror | 14:43 |
| inetpro | Kilos: yes but there will be no difference | 14:44 |
| charl | yeah i don't see the difference either to be honest | 14:44 |
| Kilos | when i used it on lucid it got 200m of updates remember | 14:44 |
| inetpro | Kilos: that's because there was an old version and a new version | 14:45 |
| Kilos | cocooncrash, will have to explain it to you guys | 14:45 |
| inetpro | there was a 2nd release | 14:45 |
| Kilos | was updating the iso taken off the cd from canonical | 14:45 |
| inetpro | Kilos: in fact there was 4 releases of Lucid | 14:47 |
| inetpro | or is that 5 even | 14:47 |
| Kilos | ok if one downloads and iso now of 12.04 is it the same as whats on the official cd? | 14:48 |
| inetpro | 10.04, 10.04.1, 10.04.2, 10.04.3 and 10.04.4 | 14:48 |
| inetpro | Kilos: yep | 14:48 |
| inetpro | there's no 2nd release yet | 14:48 |
| inetpro | but there are many updates | 14:48 |
| Kilos | so then the zsync command should fetch updates for that iso | 14:48 |
| inetpro | Kilos: no | 14:48 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 14:49 |
| inetpro | zsync is really useful for updating releases, especially daily snapshots during development | 14:50 |
| inetpro | but real releases don't come that often | 14:50 |
| Kilos | oh is that only for like 12.04.1 | 14:51 |
| Kilos | etc | 14:51 |
| inetpro | Kilos: yebo yes | 14:51 |
| Kilos | so when will that be released | 14:51 |
| Kilos | that will be once lotsa bugs are repaired hey | 14:52 |
| sflr | there were tons of updates since 12.04 release. I get updates almost every day | 14:53 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 14:54 |
| inetpro | Kilos: according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule?action=show&redirect=PreciseReleaseSchedule Ubuntu 12.04.1 should come on August 23rd | 14:54 |
| Kilos | sjoe thats still a while ty inetpro | 14:55 |
| inetpro | and Ubuntu 12.04.2 on 31 January 2013 | 14:55 |
| inetpro | and Ubuntu 12.04.3 on 15 August 2013 | 14:56 |
| Kilos | lol | 14:56 |
| inetpro | and Ubuntu 12.04.4 on 24 January 2014 | 14:56 |
| inetpro | Kilos: and that is only because it is a LTS release | 14:57 |
| Kilos | ok ty | 14:57 |
| charl | yeah lts hey | 14:57 |
| Kilos | i go let sheep in quick | 14:58 |

| Kilos | you can take that juice and mix it 50 to 1 with water and spray on plants leaves or water plants with it | 15:39 |
| Kilos | juice is called vermitea | 15:39 |
| sflr | yes, thats what I use the juice for. pretty handy. and not that stinky like the one from the nursery | 15:40 |

| sflr | haha, yes. | 15:42 |
| sflr | superfly: there are many feeds aggregated on the site but some are dead links. are the feeds still being imported into the site? | 15:43 |
| superfly | sflr: uh, I'll have to have a look. Are the links to the blogs themselves dead, or are the links in the feeds bad? | 15:44 |
| superfly | i remember maiatoday's blog was a little weird | 15:44 |
| sflr | some links to the blogs. few crons have an exclamation marks next to them | 15:45 |
| superfly | Ah, OK, we should investigate and refresh/prune | 15:45 |
| sflr | i can go through them and get you a list of which are not working | 15:45 |
| sflr | ok guys. home time. chatter later. | 15:46 |
