There is a public holiday towards end of the month. [07:11] What is the seating capacity there? How many people can attend? [07:12] Yeah, that's also my mom's birthday :-) [07:12] well, there are a couple of tables that each take 2 people, but we could probably shift them together [07:13] and there are some couches in there too [07:13] hey not_found, what happened there? [07:14] much better :) Xchat FTW and all that [07:14] hehe [07:14] heh. I don't really like X-Chat. Never really did... [07:14] thanks superfly. We should make a booking then? [07:14] * not_found <3 it :p [07:14] aw come on superfly its nearly same as quassel [07:15] Kilos, at the end of the day... users should just use what works for them IMO... which ever DE, even which OS... [07:15] I don't think that's necessary, but I'll pop around at lunchtime sometime this week, and see what their lunchtime traffic is like [07:15] sflr: ^^ [07:16] -_- helps if I update the right site [07:16] i have only used ubuntu since i came to linux and enjoy it just the unity trip was a bit slow and needed more thinking nl [07:17] not_found, [07:17] hi Vince-0 [07:17] lol [07:17] at least this should work for 5 years now [07:18] is mate in an official ubuntu PPA? [07:18] ok superfly that would be great! [07:18] not_found: Official for MATE or official for Ubuntu? :-P [07:18] ? [07:18] lol [07:18] I mean if it is an external PPA there is no guarentees for support for 5 years right [07:19] Hi, Kilos [07:19] im happy its now in my synaptic with all its other packages [07:19] not_found: by definition, PPA's are external to Ubuntu [07:19] oh i see what you mean [07:19] not_found: and there is no support for them from Canonical [07:19] ah ok... sorry... but what I mean it isn't in the repo's or is it? [07:19] the "official" ones [07:20] * not_found knows what he means but doesn't know how to say it [07:20] oh right [07:20] it's not in the repositories, no [07:20] thanks tumbleweed ... [07:21] not even everything in the archive gets support from canonical. They only support a subset of the archive [07:21] tumbleweed: only main and restricted, hey? [07:22] so what happens if something falls outside this in 4 years? Upgrade or live with possible security hole? [07:22] it's more complex than that [07:22] not_found: yes [07:22] hmmm [07:23] superfly: we're talking of getting rid of the main/universe divide [07:23] tumbleweed: oh, OK [07:23] canonical supports some packages in universe, and not everything in main [07:23] ah [07:23] there's a script somewhere that tells you what they support [07:24] that said, the community supports everything else [07:25] not_found: there's a difference between "not supported" as in no support from canonical, and "not supported" meaning you're doing something potentilaly dangerous [07:26] some PPAs and external repositories aren't very well maintained, and will cause you trouble [07:26] tumbleweed, true... but Canonical gives the "support for 5 years" sticker on the site... and if community doesn't pitch in this might not be true [07:26] no, the 5 years support is real [07:27] and the community supports everything else [07:27] but we also describe things as "not supported" when we mean "you've done something crazy, we can't help you with that" [07:28] k :) [07:28] thanks for the info tumbleweed [07:29] * not_found is finding the LoCo Council a tough crowed to contact... [07:29] tumbleweed, join the mate guys and help them keep up [07:29] lol @ Kilos [07:29] hehe [07:29] not_found: why do you have to deal with the loco council? [07:29] some politics over here in the UAE... [07:30] power struggle of sorts :/ [07:30] Kilos: it's not really something that interests me :) [07:30] *tea time* [07:31] well i hope they get enough dev guys to help them [07:31] not_found: laura is usually on IRC [07:31] she scares us [07:31] * tumbleweed doesn't really know the others [07:31] maybe even Lee will keep using ubuntu then [07:32] mate is a nice alternative for those that arent happy with unity [07:33] and one can still stay on ubuntu [07:34] hi Kilos, superfly and everybody else [07:34] o/ Maaz [07:34] >.< [07:35] o/ maiatoday [07:35] :) hi not_found [07:36] i go sort sheep [07:38] Kilos, give 'em hell [07:38] laura sorted me out, thanks tumbleweed [07:38] np [08:47] yo inetpro cremora [08:47] hi Banlam bakuman [09:02] hi kilos [09:02] +Omm [09:02] oom [09:04] forget the oom man [09:08] goeie more 00M Kilos [09:09] oh and good morning to everyone else [09:10] and wb to sflr [09:12] haha [09:13] jou beurt is jou beurt [09:13] hi drussell hows things [09:13] ?

[18:28] bye everyone :) [18:28] night night [18:29] night smile [18:29] sleep tight [18:29] thanks, Squirm & Kilos :) you both, also :p [18:29] * Squirm waits impatiently [18:30] lol patience Squirm [18:30] 70%... [18:32] what size stick do you need to make a usb installer thingie [18:32] enough for the image to fit on to [18:32] so 2g should work? [18:32] yes [18:32] I had a 700mb image on a 8Gb flash drive [18:32] so yes [18:32] yay ty bakuman [18:32] if g == GB [18:32] :d [18:32] lol [18:33] check this http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=pqzUpeAPqZw&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DpqzUpeAPqZw&gl=ZA HawkiesZA [18:33] from g+ [18:34] AR Drone flight? [18:34] yeah, I buffered it, forgot about it, now I've formatted and still haven't watched it [18:36] superfly: KDE SC 4.9.1 was released on September 4th, 2012 [18:37] but I'm still running on 4.8.4 with Kubuntu 12.04.1 [18:37] can't remember what the SC stands for though [18:39] you could try a ppa inetpro [18:39] :P [18:39] Meesterarend: nah, I'll wait for it [18:40] I would be too impatient [18:41] I like stable put close to the cutting edge thingie [18:42] put = but [18:42] I don't have a compelling reason to upgrade [18:42] so i'm running my home systems on 3.5 kernel [18:42] ah [18:43] BTW I was playing around with Google Hangouts over the weekend and must say I'm very impressed [18:44] face to face video conferencing is very cool [18:44] ok [18:44] and it even works from mobile to PC now, something that I could not do some time ago [18:44] i used skype for that before [18:44] or PC to mobile [18:45] no need for skype with this [18:45] cool [18:45] online then? [18:45] you can even do screen sharing [18:45] a very cool feature [18:46] but I would love to compare skype and G+ hangouts in a bit more detail [18:47] what's the data usage for something like this? [18:47] that's exactly what I would like to compare [18:47] heavy [18:48] i know skype are about 100mb for about 20 minutes of video 2 way [18:48] at least 500 mbps with full video on boths sides on g+ [18:48] ouch [18:48] but I guess it also depends on other factors, like movement, etc [18:49] is there video quality adjustments you can make? [18:49] i'll skip on that for now [18:49] :) [18:49] thats for uncapped peeps [18:49] two choices, either Fast connection or Slow connection [18:49] slow connection reduces it by about 50% [18:50] and if you disable video on both sides it goes down to about 128kbps IIRC [18:50] but once again it depends on whether you're chatty or not [18:51] that's good for voice chat [18:52] it varies as you chat [18:53] and drops almost completely, though I didn't test this specifically, if you keep quiet [18:53] inetpro, is that per second [18:53] Kilos: kbps = kilobits per second [18:53] whew [18:53] 10 secs per meg [18:53] oh bits [18:53] Kilos: yep [18:53] so on a 384 line, you're kind of stuck [18:54] but still cheaper than making a voice call on your mobile phone [18:54] yip [18:54] 10s per meg [18:55] that's 10000 per gig [18:55] was chatting to a friend in NZ who's paying less than 1c per MB these days [18:55] Maaz: 10000/60/60 [18:55] Squirm: 2.77777777778 [18:55] especially if you have same data on your phone it can be very cheap [18:55] 2.7hours at what, R50? [18:55] not bad [18:56] if you uncapped then you can really score [18:56] magespawn: true [18:56] but that's pc-pc [18:56] ease of use inetpro? [18:56] magespawn: extremely easy [18:56] or pcmto wifi device [18:56] pc to [18:57] cool [18:57] that could work [18:57] I want to look at some voip solutions [18:57] the only catch is the first call [18:57] one day when i'm big and rich and oh wait... wrong dream [18:57] :) [18:58] lol [18:58] once the plugin is installed it really is very simple [18:58] lol Meesterarend [18:58] inetpro: first call? [18:59] Squirm: if you introduce someone who has never used it [18:59] like Astrix, Squirm ? [18:59] magespawn: in the end, yes [18:59] but instead of going out on a landline, setup external voip services [18:59] night guys. sleep tight [18:59] 3cx i think is astrix based [19:00] night Kilos [19:00] night Kilos [19:00] are you kidding me!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! [19:00] I even had a chat from my ubuntu with someone else walking around with his iPad [19:00] so I'm isntall Ubuntu 12.04 [19:00] no where does it ask me what packages I wanted to install [19:00] it just did it [19:01] and now, at 80%, it's asking me to insert a disk [19:01] an install, from an alternate iso, is asking for another cd [19:01] was kind of cool to see the inside of his house and his family [19:03] Squirm: huh? [19:04] inetpro: I decided to install Ubuntu, do a base install. but I downloaded the alternate cd, thinking it would prompt me as to what packages I would like to install [19:04] but alas, after partitioning, it went along and just started to install, no prompts, nada [19:04] eish [19:04] now, at 80%, it's asking me to inset a cd [19:04] no, there's no choosing of packages [19:05] hmm... asking for a disk? [19:05] that is strange [19:05] Squirm: what did you download? [19:06] I'm sure I downloaded Ubuntu alternate... [19:06] URL [19:06] ? [19:06] * Squirm changes console in the installer [19:07] a 692.3M iso, ubuntu-12.04.1-alternate-i386.iso [19:07] from a torrent file I got off the Ubuntu website [19:09] hmm, time to download the minimal installer and try again [19:10] never had any of my installations ask me for a disk, wierd [19:11] well, either way. I was hoping for it to prompt me to install selected packages [19:11] now I have to wait 40min for a 30Mb file to download :/ [19:12] and when was the last time the ubuntu.mirror.ac.za was updated? [19:13] highest I see is 11.10 [19:15] under ubuntu-release? [19:15] that happend to me some few releases ago [19:15] but not recently though [19:16] usually a faulty write [19:17] how is this http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-release/12.04.1/ [19:17] as for being asked about what to intall i think just the server edition does that [19:17] are you sure? [19:17] I know the mini does that though too [19:18] not very i usually use only the gui install [19:18] it seems faster some how [19:19] thing is, I don't want to install the standard gui [19:20] I gathered that [19:20] :P [19:20] I'm difficult, I know [19:20] :D [19:20] Squirm: I'm not aware of a mini install [19:20] either way, I have to go somewhere now. I have a half installed OS [19:21] something like JEOS [19:21] inetpro: I'm downloading it now. though it seems it's 12.04 not 12.04.1, but that's ok [19:21] very interesting [19:22] * inetpro checks it out at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [19:22] if you have a sandisk flash stick you might be able to resize the cdrom partition on it, and write an image to that [19:22] Squirm: did you have a look at that link i sent? [19:22] much more reliable that the flashstick install [19:22] that = than [19:23] I did magespawn, thanks. [19:23] cool [19:23] I'm also downloading the server iso [19:23] 2 hours till it's completed. I'll be sleeping by that time :P [19:25] well i usualy leave it running and atend to it the next time i get to it :P [19:26] is there a way to download an entire youtube channel? [19:26] like hak5 [19:26] night guys '-' [19:26] good night Cantide [19:27] hi [19:27] always magespawn [19:27] try wget for a hack [19:27] Meesterarend: I usually would, but I don't have a usable desktop :P [19:27] does anyone know the link to tumbleweed's post on how to set up 'n repo for a release party? [19:28] or maybe something similar [19:28] Maaz: google release party mirror tumbleweed [19:28] tumbleweed: "Release Party Ubuntu Mirror | Tumbleweed Rants" http://tumbleweed.org.za/2010/10/09/release-party-ubuntu-mirror :: "Tumbleweed Rants | Stefano's World" http://tumbleweed.org.za/ :: "ubuntu | Tumbleweed Rants" http://tumbleweed.org.za/tags/ubuntu :: "Recent posts | Tumbleweed Rants" http://tumbleweed.org.za/tracker :: "Portal:Tumbleweed - openSUSE" http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Tumbleweed :: "The Satellite ยป Past Shows" http:// [19:28] queery: ^ [19:28] sound like fun Squirm [19:28] hi thanx tumbleweed [19:29] lol tumbleweed [19:29] might take awhile they have a few videos [19:29] I didn't know the keywords [19:29] that is one clever bot [19:30] HD videos don't play on my netbook :/ [19:30] Maaz, botsnack [19:30] Yay, at last someone thinks about me as well [19:30] hhehehehehehe [19:31] reincode it Squirm :) it might take a while though [19:31] a while? [19:31] lol [19:31] I would not try it on a netbook [19:31] 2min [19:32] tumbleweed: you said beta was released the other day, or is due to be released soon? [19:32] superfly: released last thursday [19:33] well i work on 60 min+ dvd quality and that take my desktop about 30 minutes [19:33] ah, OK\ [19:33] * superfly thinks it's his turn to upgrade [19:33] living on the edge? :) [19:34] nah ubuntu releases aren't living on the edge [19:34] for that you need to go fedora [19:34] i think [19:35] yeah, rawhide is fairly edgy [19:36] I do not understand that people install fedora on a production system and expect it to work [19:37] i've tested it long ago and did not even like it [19:43] i thought it was okay tried 5 and then jumped to 13 i think [19:44] I had to jump through to many hoops trying to get my sound working [19:44] ubuntu worked better though [19:44] still [19:45] fedora are marked as a beta product for redhat an centos [19:45] Mandriva was great [19:46] and suse isn't bad either [19:46] just not my cup of tea [19:49] strangely enough it was the community that decided me, and the company behind ubuntu, and the amount of online documentation. [19:49] overall usefulness [19:49] hehhheeheheh [19:49] yip [19:50] I started when i had to get a terminal system up and running [19:50] despite what happens or appears to happen on the lists [19:50] did not work first time on windows [19:50] got ubuntu [19:51] 64bit did not work [19:51] but i came closer to cracking it [19:51] than a proffessor working with it every day [19:52] i tried windows again [19:52] and the system worked...seeing the hamer i hid in my toolbox [19:53] but I realy was hooked on ubuntu by that time [19:53] i still work with both [19:54] Strange how first experiances can do something like that hey [19:56] yep [20:00] brb [20:03] just watching neo fight seriph [20:03] later all battery is dying [20:03] bye [20:03] gota work too [20:06] tumbleweed: always :-P [20:59] meh [20:59] getting there [21:04] Eish! [21:05] something telling me that 8ta is having DNS issues [21:05] no [21:05] the world is [21:05] http://it.slashdot.org/story/12/09/10/190247/godaddy-goes-down-anonymous-claims-responsibility [21:05] Kerbero: ahh [21:05] Yikes! [21:05] * inetpro didn't realise the impact [21:06] everybody that uses godaddy's dns servers are having problems [21:06] sjoe [21:07] thanks Kerbero [21:09] that's me too [21:09] I can still ping my site htough [21:11] looks like GoDaddy has hit instant fame [21:13] yeah baby [21:26] now just a mission installing everything [21:26] thankfully I still have most of my configs for apps [21:33] * inetpro wonders what servers godaddy are using for DNS [21:33] inetpro: Windows [21:33] superfly: are you serious!? [21:33] yuhuh [21:33] wow! [21:34] superfly: where did you get that? [21:35] inetpro: read it long time ago... there was an "uproar" because a whole bunch of domains (parked ones, I think) that previously said they were on Linux hosts were now on Windows hosts, and it was apparently because GoDaddy moved to Windows [21:35] eish! [21:37] I don't like GoDaddy's business practices, so I stay far away from them, but yeah... lots of people use them for DNS [21:39] makes sense. I have a domain with them. use a different DNS service though === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za [21:46] Squirm: you mean you control your own nameservers? [21:46] or rather, your domain is on nameservers not at GoDaddy [21:47] so I registered my .net domain through godaddy, but the NS is hosted elsewhere [21:49] right. I use Gandi.net for registering, and I also have separate nameservers [21:49] though I know Gandi uses Linux nameservers [21:51] I'm with... [21:52] Hostgator [21:52] have a reseller account with them [21:54] superfly: on a new system, what's the easiest way to get sound working? [21:54] Squirm: uh, sound has pretty much always worked for me [21:55] I used to uninstall PulseAudio, since it is a solution to a problem that doesn't exist, but these days the other apps expect pulseaudio :-( [21:55] but from scratch? it works with a normal install [21:55] Squirm: check with alsamixer [21:55] Squirm: I use Kubuntu, everything always just works [21:55] maybe something is just muted [21:55] :-P [21:56] night peeps [21:56] inetpro: yeah, I'm downloading it now [21:56] Cannot open mixer: No such device or address [21:57] eish! [21:57] good luck [21:57] * inetpro goes sleeping [21:57] good night [21:57] Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_pulse.so [21:57] cannot open mixer: No such device or address [21:57] :/
