| Curbuntu | Ah, you're in the "UK" of "Ubuntu-UK"! | 00:32 |
| penguin42 | I am | 00:33 |
| Curbuntu | Well, perhaps I can check back Monday... | 00:36 |
| penguin42 | Curbuntu: I'd try an Ubuntu server install, and if that gets you to a text login reliably try installing the GUI (ubuntu-desktop) | 00:38 |
| penguin42 | right, bed - good luck | 00:39 |

| bigcalm | Oh, might be a good time to discuss what's happening on the evening of the 14th. | 12:19 |
| bigcalm | What train are people getting from Farnham? | 12:19 |
| bigcalm | The RAT leaves Alton at 19:20 | 12:22 |
| bigcalm | 18:56 from Farnham gets to Alton at 19:10 | 12:22 |
| bigcalm | Might be cutting it fine | 12:22 |
| bigcalm | 18:26 from Farnham get to Alton at 18:39 | 12:23 |
| bigcalm | Better safe than sorry? | 12:23 |
| bigcalm | And do we stay on the train for the 2nd trip up and down the line? | 12:25 |

| bigcalm | AlanBell: splendid! | 13:25 |
| christel | :) | 13:25 |
| * bigcalm shall take beer tokens | 13:26 | |
| bigcalm | Which train should we get from Farnham? | 13:26 |
| bigcalm | And are there any thoughts on eating? | 13:27 |

| AlanBell | (i.e. one with rasins in it) | 13:28 |
| bigcalm | Ug | 13:29 |
| bigcalm | Hayley and I should be in Farnham by middayish (if we make a good and early start from here) | 13:30 |

| ali1234 | AlanBell: camera can also supply data in multiple formats. so it can do about 10fps in the max resolution by doing MJPG | 18:05 |
| ali1234 | or it can do like 1/2 fps if you do YUV, but it's higher quality | 18:06 |
| ali1234 | about the only thing it is missing is optical zoom | 18:10 |
