| directhex | pfft, all this modern overclocking | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| directhex | in my day, the key to overclocking was a lead pencil! | 00:00 |
| Azelphur | lol | 00:01 |
| directhex | the great thing about the athlon multiplier unlock was when they started lasering a gap between the contacts, to prevent you from drawing a connection on with a pencil. lots of guides to using superglue and two razorblades to bridge the lasered channel | 00:02 |
| directhex | actual solution? curved line around channel, rather than straight line through it :) | 00:03 |
| Azelphur | directhex, so any idea on my RAM? :P | 00:04 |
| directhex | all my knowledge is obsolete | 00:05 |

| knightwise | Depends on what you are referring to :) | 10:22 |
| knightwise | all our spices are in a drawer :) | 10:22 |
| jardag | i have installed 12.04 and there are no menus in firefox, any ideas? | 10:23 |
| brobostigon | jardag: move your mouse over the global menu, in the top left hand side. | 10:25 |
| knightwise | hey brobostigon how are you today | 10:26 |
| brobostigon | knightwise: my eczema feels abit painful, and itchy, otherwise fine. and you? | 10:26 |
| jardag | brobostigon: there is no global menu, maybe i have chosen wrong install option | 10:27 |
| knightwise | Doing fine. Office is starting to look like Neo's room from the matrix | 10:27 |
| brobostigon | knightwise: :) | 10:27 |
| knightwise | 2 laptops , 2 tablets , 2 phones and a lot of junk$ | 10:27 |
| brobostigon | jardag: do you have unity, xfce, kde ? | 10:27 |
| knightwise | playing around with the google nexus i got yesterday | 10:27 |
| brobostigon | knightwise: i am trying to work out, how to root mine. | 10:28 |
| jardag | brobostigon: i have ubuntu 12.04 gnome | 10:28 |
| brobostigon | you need to turn ff's menu's backo n again, inside ff itself. | 10:29 |
| jardag | brobostigon: i don't know how to | 10:31 |
| knightwise | brobostigon: might be a dumb question , but what are the perks in rooting it ? | 10:31 |
| brobostigon | jardag: you should be able to right click and get a popup from one of ff's title bars. | 10:31 |
| brobostigon | knightwise: backups for example. | 10:32 |
| knightwise | "backed up apk's you want to install you mean ? | 10:32 |
| brobostigon | knightwise: also systems settings, etc, that kind of thing, so for example, i can go into recovery, and do a nad backup, ie, a controlled system state, so if something happens, i can just flash it back. and have a saved system state. | 10:33 |
| oimon | the ability to take an image of your phone/device is crucial IMO | 10:35 |
| directhex | wp7 forces backups on you. can't install a firmware update without it taking a backup first | 10:39 |
| oimon | a dd image type backup? | 10:39 |
| jardag | brobostigon: no menus in firefox ubuntu 12.04 amd64 | 10:43 |
| brobostigon | jardag: am now out of ideas. sorry. | 10:44 |
| jardag | i thin it is a bug in the 64 bit version | 10:45 |
| oimon | jardag was probably missing firefox-globalmenu package | 10:51 |
| brobostigon | well, he did say he was using gnome, not unity. so that wouldnt have made any difference, as there is no global menu in gnome-shell/gnome3. | 10:54 |
| oimon | ah, didn't see that bit | 10:56 |

| TheOpenSourcerer | Azelphur: Try the Consumer Protection Act I think. There is/was also something from the EU a while ago that talks about "bundling" being bad. | 13:47 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Hang on - I may have some old blog posts about this... | 13:48 |
| Azelphur | TheOpenSourcerer: hi :), yea I've been reading your blog posts on this :D | 13:48 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Oh OK. | 13:48 |
| Azelphur | TheOpenSourcerer: feel free to look though maybe there's something I missed | 13:48 |
| Azelphur | TheOpenSourcerer: I noticed you had success with Amazon too, I kinda dread going through lenovo (seems bad), but the EULA on win7 has changed and it specifically says take it to the manufacturer/installer now | 13:49 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Yes - the Win7 EULA makes it much harder to get a refund. | 13:49 |
| Azelphur | indeed :( | 13:49 |
| Azelphur | I'm hoping that I can just send them a video of the entire process, from breaking the seals on the box to wiping the HDD | 13:50 |
| Azelphur | without having to ship it back \o/ | 13:50 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | "The Sale and Supply of Goods to Consumers Regulations 2002 requires that the retailer replace the faulty item, or if that is impossible provide you with a refund. The Sale of Goods Act gives you the right to partially reject items. Essentially you assert your ’statutory rights’. " | 13:52 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | In this one: http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2009/08/pressure-mounts-on-windows-tax/ | 13:52 |
| Azelphur | fun | 13:52 |
| Azelphur | so the main bit with that I'm interested in is partially rejecting items | 13:52 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | If the retailer is awkward, then the way to a refund is avoid the trap of following the instructions in the EULA. Instead you request that the retailer replace the software with a version that isn’t ‘faulty’ (ie doesn’t have the additional terms and conditions imposed). You didn’t agree to them when you purchased the item and therefore they don’t form part of the contract of sale with the retailer. | 13:52 |
| Azelphur | haha, so get them to replace win7 with winxp then refund that? XD | 13:53 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | This is the key. When you buy the PC you do not agree to the EULA. | 13:53 |
| Azelphur | yea | 13:53 |
| Azelphur | I havn't even opened the box | 13:53 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | It isn't part of the deal. | 13:53 |
| Azelphur | any suggestions on who I should contact first? Amazon or Lenovo xD | 13:54 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | No - but I would "speak" to any supplier and explain what you want first. | 13:55 |
| Azelphur | fair enough | 13:55 |
| Azelphur | suppose I'll go to Amazon first then since you had success with them | 13:55 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | You may be able to get a sale just because you could go elsewhere and potentially get a deal. | 13:56 |
| Azelphur | ah, I already bought the laptop though | 13:56 |
| Azelphur | it arrived today :p | 13:56 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Ah. | 13:56 |
| Azelphur | TheOpenSourcerer: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3832397/screenshots/2012/August/2012-08-10-150952_1908x1170_scrot.png making a start :) | 14:10 |

| brobostigon | there we go, easy and painless, unlocking bootloader, installing cwm recovery and rooting, nexus 7. | 14:13 |
| bigcalm | Good luck indeed | 14:19 |
| Azelphur | The Ubuntu installer scares me, somehow it defaults to colemak for me now | 14:48 |
| Azelphur | it's in my brain...it knows things | 14:48 |
| shauno | I discovered my mac actually does that. it ships with en_GB set in the nvram, but changes to en_IE once I've set it up. but stuffs that back in nvram so the installer is wiser next time | 15:12 |
| shauno | makes sense I guess, but struck me as really sneaky when I found this table of stuff laying in nv | 15:12 |
| Azelphur | haha, I had no idea something like that was even possible | 15:13 |
| shauno | I think all kinds of odd tricks are going to show up, the more we move away from pcbios | 15:14 |

| Azelphur | for people who are familiar with royal mail, if I want to post a joggler (tablet pc type thing), Standard parcels should do it right? | 19:17 |

| sebsebseb | hi | 21:30 |
| linuxloony89 | has anyone got any idea's on how to get secondlife running well on ubuntu | 21:50 |
| directhex | the client or the server? | 21:51 |
| ali1234 | i tried SL once, it ran extremely poorly | 21:52 |
| ali1234 | not because of the graphics but because the environments take forever to load | 21:52 |
| ali1234 | so you're walking along and get stuck, and then 30 seconds later a wall pops up in front of you | 21:53 |
| ali1234 | i dunno if the experience is the same on windows | 21:53 |
| linuxloony89 | on windows it runs pretty well on my laptop but on ubuntu it wont load a world at all, | 21:54 |
| linuxloony89 | directhex: client, trying singularity as it seems the lighter than the official client | 21:55 |
| linuxloony89 | I finally scrapped windows completely and the only application I miss is SL and desprate to get it running again | 21:57 |
| directhex | ali1234, how long ago? | 21:57 |
| ali1234 | oh, couple of years | 21:58 |
| linuxloony89 | ali1234: it's improved incrediblely in the last year i would say | 21:58 |
| sebsebseb | linuxloony89: SL is 3D? | 21:59 |
| sebsebseb | or 2D? | 21:59 |
| ali1234 | it's 3D | 21:59 |
| directhex | linuxloony89, so what's the issue? download, unpack, run? | 22:00 |
| linuxloony89 | the programme starts on ubuntu, but when you log in, it wont load any worlds, despite the fact it's fine on windows, same client and same system | 22:01 |
| directhex | nvidia/ati binary drivers, 3d working? | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | linuxloony89: SL is made for Windows really | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | even if there is a Linux port, it's really a Windows program | 22:02 |
| linuxloony89 | nvidia and run fine | 22:02 |
| directhex | sebsebseb, wat? | 22:02 |
| linuxloony89 | and im using gnome classic instead of unity to help on graphic | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | directhex: I don't use SL, but I think it started off as Windows program, and then ported to Linux? that's what I meant | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | linuxloony89: Which version of Ubuntu? | 22:03 |
| linuxloony89 | 12.04 | 22:03 |
| sebsebseb | ok so you mean the Gnome fall back mode then really | 22:03 |
| sebsebseb | which will eventaully be removed from GNOME it seems completly | 22:03 |
| sebsebseb | I assume you mean that | 22:04 |
| linuxloony89 | that prob is the name, cant remember, but basically looks like gnome 2 | 22:04 |
| linuxloony89 | but obviously not | 22:04 |
| ali1234 | it's called gnome fallback by gnome developers who want it to die, and gnome classic by everyone else who refuses to stop using it | 22:04 |
| sebsebseb | I don't use SL, but I expect any Linux port, won't be as good as the WIndows version, with certain graphics cards and so on | 22:05 |
| sebsebseb | certain graphics cards, that was meant to be above | 22:05 |
| sebsebseb | or maybe just in general really whatever the card, depending on how it's been made | 22:05 |
| linuxloony89 | well the graphics card it nvidia geforce go 6600te/6200te | 22:06 |
| sebsebseb | also you may have a NIvida graphics card driver, which is the best one you can get really, but even so, it's not quite working as well as you would hope with SL, and nothing can be done about that really since it's closed source | 22:07 |
| directhex | sebsebseb, anything vaguely game-like that real people would want to play started on windows | 22:07 |
| ali1234 | nvidia driver works fine | 22:07 |
| sebsebseb | directhex: that's not quite true | 22:07 |
| ali1234 | heh, yeah, quake? | 22:07 |
| linuxloony89 | yeah but hopefully will be joining linux | 22:07 |
| ali1234 | DOS, then SGI, then finally windows supported it | 22:07 |
| sebsebseb | ali1234: also a lot of the games started on DOS even I guess, and that's not WIndows :d | 22:07 |
| sebsebseb | linuxloony89: hopefuly who will be joining LInux ? | 22:08 |
| linuxloony89 | the more main stream game developers, sorry | 22:09 |
| sebsebseb | yeah and hopefuly not just supporting Ubuntu when they do that | 22:09 |
| sebsebseb | altough I was reading about a distro the other day that can run well all of it really or pretty much, Ubuntu DEb's, Fedora RPM's, etc etc | 22:09 |
| directhex | linuxloony89, so what exactly happens to you when you try to log in? | 22:09 |
| linuxloony89 | it starts running the loading screen, gets to "requesting region capabilities@ then hangs | 22:11 |
| directhex | linuxloony89, anything in the console output? | 22:12 |
| linuxloony89 | i check now | 22:13 |
| linuxloony89 | "listening for requests on tcp:127.0.0.1:44125" | 22:15 |
| linuxloony89 | "Initializing logging /home/rob/library/logs/vivox/, sdkserver, .txt. -i | 22:16 |
| linuxloony89 | thats the last to lines | 22:20 |
| linuxloony89 | directhex: I expect you ment in terminal? | 22:21 |
| n1md4 | linuxloony89: Gnome2 look-a-like ... Cinnamon by any chance? | 22:40 |
| linuxloony89 | n1md4not sure off the top of my head | 22:45 |
| linuxloony89 | In1md4: all i know is it's called gnome fallback | 22:46 |
| linuxloony89 | its really hard to type on this small keyboard.. | 22:46 |
| linuxloony89 | directhex: tryed firestorm client, it's loaded a world but extremely slowly, but it's certainly an improvement | 22:55 |
| directhex | linuxloony89, can you paste the output from "glxinfo" to pastebin.com ? | 23:16 |
| linuxloony89 | directhex: http://pastebin.com/QHPYYpWc | 23:23 |
| directhex | wow, geforce 6000 still supported in that driver | 23:25 |
| petrol-head | ~ | 23:26 |
| directhex | you might have more luck with an older driver - your card is supported in nvidia-173 | 23:27 |
| linuxloony89 | version 173 or 173-with updates | 23:29 |
| linuxloony89 | directhex: so far not so good with 173, it's not got worse, not improved either, what about 173 - updates | 23:44 |
