[04:08] morning ubuntu-za [05:53] hi superfly [06:06] morning Kilos [06:27] morning [06:44] hi Squirm confluency_ [06:44] tail and all === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za [06:57] hiya maiatoday [06:57] hi Kilos [07:13] hi jrgns [07:13] morning Kilos === confluency_ is now known as confluency [07:51] inetpro: hrm? [07:52] tumbleweed: wb [07:53] hi tumbleweed inetpro [07:53] thanks [07:53] Morning [07:53] hi sakhi [07:54] tumbleweed: charlvn put together a little proove of concept bot to talk to twitter, see: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1335121/ [07:54] using java [07:54] perhaps you can learn something out of that to fix ibid [07:54] * tumbleweed squints at a screenful of java [07:55] inetpro: I know what needs to be done for ibid, just haven't looked at it [07:55] hehe wb to suffer some [07:55] ahh [07:55] tumbleweed: how was the UDS? [07:55] morning Kilos and everyone else [07:56] pretty good. Being 4 days long, it felt very short. But still as exhausting as ever [07:56] eish you chased maia inetpro [07:56] Kilos: sorry [07:56] haha [07:57] tumbleweed: the api used to talk to twitter doesn't require authentication [07:57] used by charlvn* [07:57] inetpro: oh, I see [07:58] tumbleweed: but I am in no way desperate for this feature, so take your time and focus on important issues [07:58] erm, embed.ly does seem to charge [07:58] like fixing ibid [07:59] hehe [07:59] just Kilos that will killa the bull for something like this [07:59] :-) [07:59] lol [07:59] yaya [07:59] * Kilos got broad shoulders [08:00] hmm... [08:00] * Kilos wonders how nuvolari is faring [08:01] fairing? [08:06] good morning [08:06] Maaz: coffee on [08:06] * Maaz puts the kettle on [08:07] hi charlvn [08:07] Maaz, coffee please [08:07] Kilos: Okay [08:08] Maaz, okay? [08:08] Yessir Kilos [08:08] thats better [08:09] charlvn, you shocked tumbles outa his shoes with all the java [08:10] Coffee's ready for charlvn and Kilos! [08:11] Maaz, ty [08:11] You are welcome Kilos [08:14] Kilos: lol!! [08:14] Maaz: thanks [08:14] charlvn: No problem [08:33] had to read through the logs quickly [08:35] tumbleweed: with a free account at embedly you can do 10.000 urls per month which isn't a lot but it gives you something like 333 calls per day [08:35] tumbleweed: for a small deployment of ibid it should work fine imho [08:35] tumbleweed: besides, twitter also has rate limiting [08:36] tumbleweed: so you're gonna have the problem one or the other day - and embedly does not require authentication or even a key for low-use applications [08:36] tumbleweed: the code i used has no key in, it just makes the calls anonymously (well, it probably limits on a per-ip address basis) [08:37] tumbleweed: but, like i told inetpro, it's just one option - there could be others and even better ones [08:38] *one or the other way [08:42] charlvn: ah, I didn't even see the tiny mention of the free plan [08:49] tumbleweed: they are obviously not trying to promote it :) [08:49] tumbleweed: but for a start you don't even need to register [08:49] charlvn: yes, that looks useful === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [10:34] hi Trix[a]r_za [10:34] langjan sukkeling to get here with xchat [10:35] he forgets to set to freenode and favourite channel i think [10:41] hi Langjan [10:41] you made it [10:41] Only just! Lmga [10:41] hehe [10:42] how did you get here via browser? [10:42] Hi Kilos., you're a great coach, do the sharks next yar? [10:42] sigh they let us down bad [10:42] did not go via browser [10:43] you got xchat fixed? [10:43] yes, just followed your coaching... [10:43] easy [10:43] lol [10:44] ive done it so many times. first thing i do on a new install is setup xchat [10:44] Now who would have helped me sort out my ip conflict on my HP? [10:44] you are on 12.04 unity hey? [10:44] correct [10:45] explain it nicely and wait for someone to get to you [10:45] ive also got 12.04 unity and kubuntu going here [10:45] unity is ok but not my favourite cup of tea [10:46] My computer is not finding my HP Officejet all-in-one, I suspect an IP conflict [10:46] I'm living with Unity, has its shortcomings, also its benefits [10:47] Perhaps I should e-mail the community again with my problem [10:48] can you remember how you got the conflict sorted last time. i remember you had to change an ip address somewhere [10:48] yip mail them and see who helps you first [10:49] I did, and I think I did the same now but am not sure I did it right because the problem is not solved [10:49] havent you got your old mails where you were helped last time [10:49] eish [10:49] No, I cn kill myself [10:49] didnt you backup? [10:50] unity uses deja-dup , works well for me [10:50] remembers you settings etc [10:50] My router settings? [10:51] oh my i8 dunno if it will remember them. i know nothing of routers [10:51] you set them from your pc? [10:51] It was a simple IP address allocation on the router [10:52] or is it manually done on router [10:52] yes manually from my PC [10:52] yeah i read you mails to and fro last time [10:52] nee man [10:53] Langjan: which make? [10:53] i mean you didnt go to the routers and bend something the other way [10:53] ag, model [10:53] Langjan: and how are you trying to "find" your printer? [10:53] Hi superfly, it's an HP Officejet 6313 all-in-one [10:54] I recently bought the 4500, and it just worked for me [10:54] Langjan: you can print out a settings sheet which shows you your printer settings [10:54] trying hp-setup on terminal and also install via start button [10:54] that should show you the IP address [10:55] Langjan: isn't there a Printers item in your Settings screen? [10:55] Yes, I have it, it's 10.0.0.3 [10:55] afternoon all [10:55] hey magespawn [10:55] hi magespawn [10:55] whats up? [10:55] Langjan: so what else has that IP address? what's your computer's IP address? [10:55] the other ballie is getting help from the fly [10:55] hi magespawn [10:56] hi Langjan [10:56] It was 10.0.0.3 so I set it to 10.0.0.4, I think... [10:57] Langjan: why don't you let your router dish out IP addresses? [10:58] That's what it did the first time I had the conflict, and I suspect now again when I reset it. [10:59] superfly, my router 's network light is dead, could that be the problem? [10:59] Langjan: possib ly [11:00] it's connected via cables [11:03] superfly and kilos, while we were chatting I tried again and presto! This system gets up and goes when it hears the name superfly and kilos! [11:03] lol [11:03] lmga! Well done guys, your reputation is enough. [11:03] so printer good now? [11:04] make a backup [11:04] Yes, can you believe it! Many thanks and praise the Lord! [11:04] Backup what kilos? [11:04] dont forget us now till you have more probs [11:05] backup backs up you home directory so thats with all settings etc [11:05] contacts email addresses etc [11:06] xchat settings too [11:06] OK my backup is due anyway. I never forget you guys, just don't chat so often. [11:06] takes a bit of thinking to setup deja-dup to tell it where to backup to [11:06] hehe [11:07] type backup in the dash [11:07] auto backup on? [11:08] i turn mine off [11:08] must backup when i want it to [11:08] personal choice [11:08] ok what next? [11:08] sec i gotta open mine to see [11:09] Its backing up already [11:09] to where? [11:09] the sky thing [11:09] ubuntuone [11:09] I have no idea [11:10] under the storage tab you can set path [11:10] my ubuntuone does not have enough space [11:10] where do you want it to backup to [11:11] have you got a spare partition [11:11] dont see a storage or any other tab [11:11] or an external drive or stick you can use [11:11] no partition [11:11] external hard drive yes [11:11] nee man overview storage folders [11:12] and schedule [11:12] you've lost me now kilos [11:12] on the backup window it shows those options [11:13] yours is most likely ubuntuone at the moment [11:13] you change that by ticking it and choosing option local folders [11:13] the backup window I have shows nothing except details of process running [11:14] eish that because its going already [11:14] ok leet me stop it [11:15] it gonna fight you [11:15] hehe [11:15] no, it cancelled [11:15] yay [11:16] now you see the other tabs at the top? [11:16] but first plugin the external [11:16] then it will see it [11:17] ok I see the light, will backup onto my external drive and let you know how it went, but not right now, gotta go.

[16:25] Ludo, wb [16:30] Kilos: yes iirc, though I must admit I don't check it very often [16:30] ah i was just wondering about whats gonna happen with no 2d but its been answered ty [16:31] hows things there in the uk drussell ? [16:36] Trixar_za: why the eyeing [16:37] I'm trying to remember if it's a co-ed school [16:37] lol [16:37] indeed :P [16:37] 1 female in their team though [16:37] But even then you being in a pool with boys in their swimming costumes is questionable [16:39] I know this may sound wrong, but I swam and played polo all through high school and most of primary school [16:39] In other words, you're used to girls in speedos [16:40] lol [16:40] it's not a turn on. [16:40] bikini's on the other hand [16:40] and this is so not the right channel to be talking about this [16:40] so, I tried ZorinOS today :P [16:41] And failed [16:41] :P [16:41] built on Ubuntu, made to be a windows Look-a-like. think they did quite well. [16:41] might be nice to start implementing it in some places around the school. it is different to windows, but it may be easier to learn [16:41] Kilos: ahh yeah 2D is gone, so any platform that can't handle 2D gets software rendered 3D via llvmpipe [16:42] as long as we can still install and then see to be able to sort the drivers that ok methinks [16:42] ooh, have a lan at 7 [16:43] crap, guess I'm supplying the cables [16:43] I've heard of YLMF Os, but not ZorinOs [16:43] hmmm [16:43] * Trixar_za uses his extensive google-fu [16:44] Trixar_za: it uses Nautilus. but the start menu looks like Windows 7 [16:45] eish [16:46] Reminds me a bit of the current Linux Mint [16:46] mmm [16:46] little [16:46] Which begs the question: Why not Linux Mint or PCLinuxOS? :P [16:46] Trixar_za: I'm currently using linux mint [16:46] ^^ [16:46] got tired of that thing I did [16:47] now stuff just works ^^ [16:47] Building from scratch? [16:47] yep [16:47] didn't have time to fix problems and stuff [16:47] mint runs beautifully [16:47] It should, it's made like that [16:47] :P [16:47] I know, that's why I installed it :P [16:48] But eh, I'm a dev on another distro - so it's kind of my 'job' :P [16:49] yeah, I just wanted my machine to work [16:50] I now believe in Mint as a full desktop solution and CentOS/RH as a server [16:50] maybe RH brainwashed me [16:50] I was almost brainwashed by that MS Evangelist [16:51] Well, if you want a RH based out-of-box distro then PCLinuxOS it is [16:51] :P [16:51] Well, it's based off Mandrivia (or is it Mageia now?) [16:51] I don't want it as a desktop [16:51] server, RH is good [16:52] and CentOS = RH [16:52] RH has pretty good wireless support [16:52] setup CentOS as a server here, what a breeze [16:52] Actually networking support period [16:52] Trixar_za: that's what you pay for [16:53] ok, I better be off [16:53] I have some people to shoot [16:53] And don't the RH people develop KDE? [16:53] lol [16:53] Later Squirm [16:53] Trixar_za: idk [16:53] *gone [16:53] I had a look at PC Linux OS and it is a disgusting mish mash of applications with no thought as to uniformity and compatibility [16:55] Ah, so it must have gone through another set of changes. [16:56] That's always the problem with a distro - you always get people that totally ruin it [16:58] Oh right [16:58] I've been online for a few hours and I forgot what I wanted to look up [16:58] lol [16:59] Trixar_za: I'm thinking of switching to "plain ol' debian" [17:01] . [17:01] *cough* [17:02] o/ hello :) [17:02] That's what I was looking at [17:02] er, for [17:02] Ted Word processor [17:02] ted?

[17:41] sorry inetpro [17:41] die probleem is dat die waterpype nie in die muur is nie [17:41] * inetpro busy upgrading and moving servers [17:41] Valve hates it for gaming, so they're pushing for Linux Gaming support. Steam is just one of the steps [17:41] Bwahahahaha [17:41] ah sorry inetpro [17:42] Kilos: np [17:42] I just ignore :-) [17:42] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_%28software%29 [17:45] ah a game goody [17:48] superfly, hows the midges and mrs?
