| Kilos | hiya Squirm and others | 08:15 |
| Kilos | bbl | 08:22 |
| === cherryshop is now known as Kilossis | ||
| Kilossis | Squirm, you still here | 09:02 |
| Squirm | I am | 09:03 |
| Kilossis | what do you know about wine? | 09:03 |
| Kilossis | how would one run a command in it if you cant find the command prompt | 09:04 |
| Kilossis | hehe if i can get wine working my sis will be happy with ubuntu | 09:04 |
| Squirm | what command are you looking to run? | 09:04 |
| Kilossis | ra2fix.reg | 09:05 |
| Squirm | run something like | 09:06 |
| Squirm | `wine regedit.exe` | 09:06 |
| Squirm | then import the .reg file | 09:06 |
| Kilossis | in my terminal? | 09:06 |
| Squirm | yes | 09:06 |
| Kilossis | ah ty | 09:06 |
| Squirm | wine runs applications, it doesnt open a desktop environment that you can use. so you have to run the exe you want | 09:07 |
| Kilossis | thanks so much | 09:07 |
| Squirm | Kilossis: much luck? | 09:15 |
| Kilossis | hehe im sukkeling to try get the file added to the right wine place to be able to import it | 09:16 |
| Kilossis | i put it in the aoe folder and told it import but dunno if it found it | 09:17 |
| Squirm | maybe put it in ~/.wine/drive_c | 09:20 |
| Kilossis | there with the folders program files, users and windows and not in one of them? | 09:22 |
| Squirm | if you put it anywhere in drive_c | 09:24 |
| Squirm | you will be able to browse to it easily with regedit | 09:24 |
| Squirm | so just stick it in drive_c for now | 09:24 |
| Kilossis | ok | 09:24 |
| Squirm | then run regedit, file, import and browse to the C drive | 09:24 |
| Kilossis | im in the registry editor gui not cli way, so drag/dropped it into drive_c and did the import bit | 09:26 |
| Kilossis | is it supposed to acknowledge anything? | 09:27 |
| Kilossis | i hate windows | 09:27 |
| Squirm | hmm | 09:31 |
| Squirm | idk, it might | 09:31 |
| Kilossis | hehe will try it now, ty Squirm | 09:31 |
| Squirm | try | 09:31 |
| Squirm | on your command like, `wine regedit.exe C:\ra2fix.reg` | 09:32 |
| Kilossis | ok | 09:32 |
| Squirm | maybe you could check by opening up the reg file in gedit, in there you'll be able to see where the registry entry went to. just follow it in regedit itself and see if it did actually change anything | 09:33 |
| Kilossis | ok ill try that | 09:34 |
| Kilossis | grrr game starts i accept the agreement thing then it plays some music from the game and goes white screen | 09:39 |
| superfly | Kilossis: it never says anything when it imports | 09:40 |
| Kilossis | ty superfly windows stupid hey | 09:40 |
| Kilossis | Hkeys all over | 09:43 |
| Squirm | Kilossis: meither does linux. if a command executes successfully, it keeps quiet, if it throws an error, it tells you | 09:44 |
| Squirm | s/meither/neither | 09:44 |
| Kilossis | ah | 09:44 |
| Kilossis | ya i member that now | 09:44 |

| charl | Kilos: that definitely sounds like german | 13:19 |
| charl | it would mean "please choose a universe" | 13:20 |
| Kilos | oh my goodness | 13:20 |
| smile | charl: that's right :) | 13:24 |
| smile | ^^ | 13:24 |

| smile | it's about 20 MB | 13:31 |
| smile | :p | 13:31 |
| Kilos | dont wanna crash maverick for a game | 13:31 |
| Kerbero | i would suggest playonlinux | 13:32 |
| Kerbero | rather than clean wine | 13:32 |
| Kilos | hmm i have playonlinux methinks | 13:32 |
| Kilos | aw im on sisters drive | 13:32 |
| Kilos | sigh | 13:33 |
| Kilos | where do i find the hardware accelaration so i can disable it | 13:33 |
| magespawn | Hi Kilos | 13:34 |
| Kilos | others have aoe2 working on wine1.2 so im the doff one | 13:34 |
| smile | :| | 13:36 |
| * Kilos tries killall pulseaudio | 13:36 | |
| Kilos | i havent spent much time on this drive but if i can get AOE2 working sister will go ubuntu | 13:37 |
| magespawn | What is that Kilos? | 13:38 |
| Kilos | a game she uses for relaxation after a days work magespawn | 13:39 |
| Kilos | age of empires | 13:39 |
| Kilos | its like a daily ritual with her | 13:40 |
| Kilos | before and after supper AOE2 | 13:40 |
| magespawn | That pretty cool. | 13:44 |
| Kilos | lol yeah | 13:45 |
| magespawn | I have started the data recovery | 13:45 |
| Kilos | great that didnt take long to get a drive | 13:45 |
| magespawn | Estimated time to complete 65hours 46 minutes | 13:46 |
| magespawn | Friends picked one up in Richards Bay. | 13:46 |
| Kilos | yeah it takes looooong but wont be that long | 13:46 |
| Kilos | nice to have friends | 13:46 |
| Kilos | maybe 50 hours | 13:46 |
| Kilos | hehe | 13:46 |
| magespawn | I think the thing that is slowing this down is it is going through USB | 13:48 |
| Kilos | some usb ports fly | 13:48 |
| Kilos | i have a usb card in and just the 2 centre of the 4 are fast | 13:49 |
| Kilos | like 15m/s | 13:49 |
| Kilos | outside 2 are ks/s | 13:49 |
| magespawn | This is on my laptop. | 13:50 |
| Kilos | but data recovery is a serious job | 13:50 |
| Kilos | oh | 13:50 |
| Kilos | you will see all the stuff it finds | 13:50 |
| magespawn | Sometimes finds stuff people do not want found. | 13:51 |
| Kilos | mine found windows stuff from 2 users before ian got the lappy and each one formatted | 13:51 |
| Kilos | yeah finds everything it can | 13:51 |
| Kilos | testdisk is a great tool if only it would keep file names | 13:52 |
| magespawn | Yup need to a zero rewrite of the whole disk, and even then data can still be found. | 13:52 |
| magespawn | How did you update your ibid? | 13:52 |

| Kilos | lol you like to mix your tales hey? | 14:43 |
| AlphaGuyy | So I finally got 12.04 | 14:43 |
| Kilos | great | 14:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | Not that impressed | 14:44 |
| Kilos | aw | 14:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | its slow | 14:44 |
| Kilos | there are fixes | 14:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | here we go again - update | 14:44 |
| Kilos | Maaz, google unity 12.04 is slow | 14:45 |
| Maaz | Kilos: "unity - Ubuntu 12.04 Responsiveness Extremely Slow on Nvidia ..." http://askubuntu.com/questions/126140/ubuntu-12-04-responsiveness-extremely-slow-on-nvidia-8800 :: "unity - Poor System performance on my machine running Ubuntu ..." http://askubuntu.com/questions/122055/poor-system-performance-on-my-machine-running-ubuntu-12-04beta-2-updated-to-the :: "Ubuntu 12.04 very slow on samsung netbook - Ask Ubuntu" http://askubuntu.com/quest | 14:45 |
| Kilos | AlphaGuyy, who are you? | 14:45 |
| AlphaGuyy | yeah I found that link as well on a google search | 14:45 |
| AlphaGuyy | I am just a noob | 14:46 |
| Kilos | first time here AlphaGuyy ? | 14:46 |
| AlphaGuyy | With limited internet access | 14:46 |
| gc | Coffee's ready for magespawn! | 14:46 |
| magespawn | ty gc | 14:46 |
| AlphaGuyy | No I've been here before. | 14:46 |
| Kilos | aw i missed coffee | 14:46 |
| magespawn | I stuck with 11.04 | 14:47 |
| Kilos | well try visit more often | 14:47 |
| Kilos | hehe i stuck with 10.10 | 14:47 |
| Kilos | but not good to clean install and no updates available | 14:48 |
| magespawn | 10.04 on the laptop | 14:48 |
| magespawn | Maybe get rid of the unity AlphaGuyy | 14:49 |
| AlphaGuyy | 9.04 was super fast compared to 12 | 14:49 |
| AlphaGuyy | Its pointless without updates | 14:49 |
| magespawn | Try one of the other desktops | 14:49 |
| magespawn | Like xcfe | 14:50 |
| Kilos | or gnomify it | 14:50 |
| Kilos | http://complete-concrete-concise.com/ubuntu-2/ubuntu-12-04/ubuntu-12-04-how-to-install-the-gnome-desktop | 14:51 |
| AlphaGuyy | U speaking zulu now | 14:51 |
| AlphaGuyy | Me no. Verstaan | 14:51 |
| Kilos | you can install gnome and it will look like 9.04 | 14:52 |
| Kilos | hopefully | 14:52 |
| Kilos | but first if you have time try speed unity up and try get used to it | 14:53 |
| Kilos | or if you like experimenting try kubuntu | 14:54 |
| AlphaGuyy | U mean run updates | 14:54 |
| Kilos | you can always come here to ask for help | 14:54 |
| AlphaGuyy | How do I turn off unity? | 14:54 |
| Kilos | after your updates are done now | 14:55 |
| Kilos | i dont know if you have the option of using classic with 12.04 | 14:55 |
| AlphaGuyy | So rather update see what happens if nothing changes then switch back to gnome. | 14:55 |
| Kilos | but hang here and someone who has done it will help you | 14:56 |
| Kilos | when updates done then try those fixes for speed | 14:56 |
| AlphaGuyy | Ok thanx | 14:56 |
| Kilos | if you still dont like unity then install the gnome | 14:57 |
| Kilos | with above link | 14:57 |
| AlphaGuyy | Anyone connected a blackberry to 12.04 ? | 14:57 |
| Kilos | nuvolari, ping | 14:58 |
| Kilos | AlphaGuyy, what do you mean connected, in what way | 14:59 |
| AlphaGuyy | Used as a dial up | 14:59 |
| Kilos | data cable bluetooth etc? | 14:59 |
| Kilos | ah as a modem | 15:00 |
| AlphaGuyy | Bluetooth | 15:00 |
| AlphaGuyy | Yebo | 15:00 |
| Kilos | voda/ | 15:00 |
| Kilos | ? | 15:00 |
| superfly | I've never done it with a Blackberry, but I've used a number of other phones, and always found success | 15:00 |
| superfly | in the newer versions of Kubuntu it shows up in network manager | 15:01 |
| Kilos | ive only tried 2 nokias and an old alcatel and all worked | 15:01 |
| Kilos | uh oh | 15:02 |
| Kilos | reboot to complete upgrade | 15:03 |
| Kilos | not_found, you here lurking | 15:03 |
| Kilos | ? | 15:03 |
| magespawn | 58 hours | 15:03 |
| Kilos | whew | 15:04 |
| Kilos | but its a large amount of data to recover magespawn | 15:04 |
| Kilos | AlphaGuyy, wb | 15:05 |
| Kilos | someone got the link to the unity guide? | 15:05 |
| AlphaGuyy | Blackberry doesn't wanna connect to irc with BIS | 15:05 |
| AlphaGuyy | Don't paste any links for I can't copy it anyway | 15:06 |
| Kilos | ok | 15:06 |
| Kilos | im trying to see if a guy who uses unity is online | 15:06 |
| AlphaGuyy | If ubuntu is free why can't irc be free | 15:06 |
| Kilos | it is isnt it? | 15:07 |
| nuvolari | Kilos: pong! | 15:07 |
| AlphaGuyy | Yes it is but the app for bb that uses bis isn't | 15:07 |
| Kilos | nuvolari, weet jy hoe om bb te connect as modem | 15:07 |
| Kilos | nuvolari, AlphaGuyy het hulp nodig | 15:08 |
| Kilos | AlphaGuyy, dont you have a bb data cable? | 15:08 |
| nuvolari | Kilos: oom, my opinie aangaande BB is gooi dit in die keramiek-troon, trek die silwer handvatseltjie, en kry 'n foon :P | 15:09 |
| Kilos | lol dis te duur om weg te gooi en die man het hulp nodig | 15:09 |
| nuvolari | ek het ongelukkig nog nie met 'n BB connect om die internet te gebruik nie | 15:09 |
| Kilos | ek dink hy moet met n data kable try dan hoort network manager dit te sien | 15:10 |
| nuvolari | if I had one at hand I could try to troubleshoot, but unfortunately I have extremely limited knowledge on BB | 15:10 |
| nuvolari | Kilos: oh? sonder 'n kabel weet ek nog minder :P | 15:11 |
| Kilos | ya ek het gesukkel met bluetooth ook | 15:11 |
| Kilos | jammer om te pla nuvolari | 15:11 |
| Kilos | ek gaan bere skape gou | 15:11 |
| nuvolari | Kilos: yeah probably, but I don't know what restrictions BB placed on their internet usage, as I think that people might abuse that | 15:12 |
| nuvolari | Kilos: oom pla nie! | 15:12 |
| magespawn | BIS is only for on the device | 15:12 |
| nuvolari | Kilos: lol... praat van om vir wolf skaapwagter te maak :D | 15:12 |
| * nuvolari koes vir oom Kilos se woeste appelswaaiery | 15:12 | |
| magespawn | I think you can choose the desktop on login on 12.04 | 15:13 |
| Kilos | hahaha@nuv | 15:14 |
| Kilos | tell him how magespawn | 15:15 |
| magespawn | Alphaguy when you login there should be a gear like wheel to the left of the password box. | 15:16 |
| AlphaGuyy | Yep | 15:16 |
| magespawn | Click that choose the desktop there | 15:17 |
| AlphaGuyy | Takes bout 20 second to open | 15:17 |
| magespawn | Wow, should be right away | 15:17 |
| AlphaGuyy | The dektop? | 15:17 |
| AlphaGuyy | Personal - hardware - system | 15:18 |
| magespawn | No | 15:18 |
| AlphaGuyy | This is a wubuntu install... | 15:18 |
| AlphaGuyy | Dual boot on an external drive | 15:19 |
| magespawn | When you first boot up and login there is a user name with a password dialogue box underneath | 15:19 |
| AlphaGuyy | Ah ok logging out quick | 15:20 |
| AlphaGuyy | ok I'm here thers just a ubuntu logo | 15:21 |
| AlphaGuyy | Ubuntu 2d | 15:21 |
| magespawn | I think so have not had a look at all the options. | 15:21 |
| magespawn | Where do you enter yout log in details? | 15:22 |
| Alpha_Guyy | Where its says username and password | 15:23 |
| Alpha_Guyy | Create a bbm support group | 15:24 |
| magespawn | To the left/right of that there is usually something that allows you to choose your desktop. | 15:24 |

| Kilos | nuvolari, ^^ | 16:12 |
| charl | http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=4581390722 | 16:18 |
| charl | seems to be it according to the website, i don't use facebook | 16:18 |
| Kilos | i hardly ever do as well charl | 16:19 |
| Kilos | data hog that thing | 16:19 |
| charl | it's a privacy suck | 16:20 |
| Kilos | lol ya that too | 16:21 |
| magespawn | You can make it more private, but it does require a bit of work. I regard everything online as in the public domain anyway | 16:22 |
| Kilos | but useful at times | 16:22 |
| magespawn | Mmm a friend does post funny stuff. | 16:24 |
| Kilos | some guys use it like twitter | 16:25 |
| magespawn | My twitter goes through to my facebook status. | 16:28 |
| charl | magespawn: yeah until next time when they decide to change the privacy settings :) | 16:40 |
| charl | without letting anyone know, of course | 16:40 |
| magespawn | Agg ja, then I'll just stop using facebook, not one of those addicted suckers luckily. | 16:41 |
| magespawn | Most ppl did/do not know about any security settings. | 16:42 |
| charl | i agree with you on one thing though - what goes online is public property | 16:46 |
| charl | or public domain i mean | 16:46 |
| Kilos | yo AlphaGuyy you winning? | 17:24 |
| AlphaGuyy | Nah dude I'm chill'n need internet | 17:29 |

| Kilos | Alpha_Guyy, you gotta listen nicely now | 17:41 |
| Kilos | i will browse the link and try explain how to setup the bb as a bluetooth modem | 17:41 |
| magespawn | You can use the bb as a modem but then it does not use the BIS, is has to have a data package add on. | 17:45 |
| Kilos | magespawn, can you browse this please i can read the black gray text | 17:46 |
| Kilos | http://traceback.org/2008/10/24/the-blackberry-curve-as-a-bluetooth-modem-on-ubuntu/ | 17:46 |

| Kilos | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1935781 | 17:57 |
| Kilos | hows your recovery doing? | 17:58 |
| charl | ciao all | 17:58 |
| charl | enjoy what's left of your weekend | 17:58 |
| nuvolari | hmm. going to hit the hay early | 17:58 |
| nuvolari | night oom Kilos, magespawn | 17:58 |
| magespawn | Night | 17:59 |
| Kilos | i dont think bb's very lekker. boet just did an upgrade or something on his and had big probs getting his mails etc after | 17:59 |
| Kilos | night nuvolari | 17:59 |
| Kilos | lekker slaap seun | 17:59 |
| nuvolari | dankie oom Kilos, dieselfde vir oom :) | 17:59 |
| Kilos | dankie | 17:59 |
| Kilos | ty mage i could at least see that page | 18:06 |
| Kilos | site | 18:06 |
| magespawn | Kilos I left the recovery running at the shop. | 18:16 |
| Kilos | lol clever lad | 18:16 |
| magespawn | In future I am going to use my 'server' to do any revoveries. | 18:17 |
| Kilos | thats a good idea | 18:18 |
| Kilos | they take forever recoveries | 18:18 |
| magespawn | Yup that coupled with a 2tb network storage drive should do it. | 18:18 |
| magespawn | One day I will be able to get a proper server, and that will speed somethings up. | 18:19 |
| Kilos | yeah | 18:20 |
| Kilos | but worth it for peeps the cant afford to lose certain data | 18:20 |
| Kilos | just finding what is what in all the numbered files is a massive job | 18:21 |
| magespawn | Yup. Have to work out a fair rate to charge. | 18:21 |
| Kilos | but that will be the clients prob | 18:21 |
| magespawn | True, but I do try to give value for money. | 18:22 |
| Kilos | but you cant charge 200 an hour for 60 hours | 18:22 |
| Kilos | unless its a big company with that kinda petty cash | 18:23 |
| magespawn | No most could not afford that. | 18:23 |
| magespawn | I could make my yearly target on one job, lol | 18:23 |
| Kilos | lol | 18:23 |
| Kilos | i would charge the cost of the drive to use for testing and maybe 1500 or 2000 | 18:24 |
| Kilos | but i been outa touch for years | 18:25 |
| magespawn | If I worked on the above rate it would R12 000.00 for this job. | 18:25 |
| Kilos | does one charge for your time in front of the pc or the machines recovery time | 18:25 |
| magespawn | I usually charge for my time. | 18:26 |
| Kilos | ya but that sounds shockingly high | 18:26 |
| magespawn | Since the computer is not doing something else. | 18:26 |
| magespawn | So a typical one I think I could get done in about 3 hours, so about R600.00, but that is pretty much a guess at this point, I have only done two. | 18:28 |
| Kilos | thats very fair | 18:28 |
| magespawn | I need more knowledge and experience. | 18:28 |
| Kilos | maybe a bit too fair at todays prices | 18:29 |
| magespawn | I am in Hluhluwe. So have to adjust for that. | 18:30 |
| Kilos | oh ya | 18:31 |
| Kilos | but your bread costs same as in jhb | 18:31 |
| magespawn | Some things are cheaper, but house rental here is the same or higher asmthe jhb average. | 18:33 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 18:33 |
| Kilos | maybe as a matter of interest try get quotes or ideas from other recovery companies so you get an idea of what data recovery actually costs | 18:35 |
| Kilos | peeps like | 18:36 |
| Kilos | http://www.datarecovery.co.za/hard-drive-recovery.html | 18:36 |
| Kilos | http://www.datarecoverysa.co.za/2010-02-Hard-Drive-Recovery-Services.html | 18:37 |
| Kilos | oh same | 18:37 |
| Kilos | http://www.lostdata.co.za/ | 18:37 |
| Kilos | and find out what they actually charge for or if its per meg etc | 18:38 |
| magespawn | Will have a look in the morning when I get into the shop. | 18:39 |
