[18:45] http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-za [18:45] I guess we'll have to set up the event on there [18:46] glitterboy_, is your battery old? [18:46] if im not mistaken it helps to plugin charger when you gonna be busy a long while [18:47] i dont have a lappy [18:47] lol [18:47] horrible things [18:47] the mouse goody sucks [18:47] No not really, in windows 7 I get less than 2 hours, in ubuntu I get a bit more (after installing powertop, and laptop-mode etc) [18:48] but lots of guys here use them so if there is a way someone will tell you [18:48] get a usb mouse [18:48] im happy with desktop [18:48] bigger for old eyes [18:49] one thing I've changed is in the /etc/defualt/grub file. I've changed the line to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash pcie_aspm=force i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.i915_enable_fbc=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1" [18:49] inetpro, you a lappy user [18:49] ideas? [18:49] what's teh question? [18:49] BUT, later on I've seen that this is actually for Sandy Bridge, and my laptop uses the GM965 chipset [18:50] how to extend lappy battery life [18:50] just use it less [18:51] what does help to make battery last long is keep the lid closed [18:51] sorry [18:51] lol [18:51] the less you use the battery the longer it lasts [18:51] less is more [18:51] and I guess to remove the battery all together [18:51] glitterboy_, cant you plugin the charger or you use when away from power [18:52] my son plugs in charger when he boots [18:52] then battery stays constand [18:52] * inetpro has never tweaked the grub bootup options to save power [18:52] I could, but I want to go running with it [18:52] what? [18:52] joking [18:53] running as in jogging? [18:53] lol [18:53] thats a lappy weakness as far as im concerned [18:53] the battery [18:53] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/PowerManagement/PowerSavingTweaks [18:54] yeah but you might at 20 mins or so [18:54] if lucky [18:54] plugin the charger [18:55] glitterboy_, where are you [18:55] and why on 11.10 [18:56] 3g? [18:56] where? such as where in the world or did you think I went into sleep mode? [18:56] ya where in the world [18:56] lol [18:57] za? [18:57] no 3g, 11.10 because when I tried to update to 12.10 it gave "compression error" on boot [18:57] eish [18:57] at the moment I'm in Botswana, but will be back in ZA in desember [18:57] 11.10 you gotta first upgrade to 12.04 then 12.10 [18:58] if no data prob download 12.10 [18:58] then install alongside to check it out first [18:58] okay..i'll try that.. did you see the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/PowerManagement/PowerSavingTweaks site? [18:59] 12.04 is quite stable now [18:59] nope thats for lappy guys [18:59] it is for Sandy bridge, isn't there such tweaks for Core 2 Duo? [18:59] only eskom messes with my power [18:59] haha [19:00] is there a channel called #lappy_guys [19:00] ?' [19:00] what does google say about the tweaks for core2 [19:00] rofl [19:00] don't get any... [19:00] weall mixed here [19:00] aw [19:00] then plug in the charger [19:01] in the ear when running [19:01] at least in the ear and not somewhere else [19:01] lol [19:01] we clean here on ubuntu-za [19:02] no dirty talk [19:02] how come you never been here before?

[19:20] Sorry their [19:20] i tried ff chromium and opera for a time but whew [19:20] Mybb [19:20] where did the data bundle go [19:20] mooi! [19:20] * inetpro shall have to check that out [19:20] Supposed to start sometime nowish [19:22] i used lynx a lot while travelling. great for looking up stuff, not so good for media rich sites :p [19:23] amazing low bandwidth sufring! [19:23] Was trying it through an ssh coonection to my shop server [19:23] Connection even [19:23] err, surfing. sufring is what you feel when bandwidth runs out ;) [19:24] yeah [19:24] and links methinks [19:24] magedroid, you might be interested in 'mosh'. it's ssh but for bad connections. [19:24] was 2 of them [19:26] anyone here has some offlineimap experience? [19:27] kbmonkey will check it out [19:28] Offline as in? [19:28] see you all later.. got to go [19:29] ok cheers glitterboy_ pop back soon [19:29] * magedroid is skip watching the matrix reloaded [19:30] offlineimap is a tool that syncs your mail (say gmail) to a local imap directory [19:30] so you can connect your mail client to a local copy of your imap [19:30] useful for slow/bad connections. it syncs back in the background [19:30] kbmonkey, why not use pop [19:31] then it only fetches new mail [19:31] because pop does not sync mail flags across clients [19:31] and leaves the rest at gail etc [19:31] whew [19:31] you always get so invloved [19:31] byee :p [19:31] lol [19:32] byee [19:32] involved as well [19:32] toods kbmonkey be good [19:32] oh toods smile [19:32] Use thunderbird but do an offline sync before i go home [19:32] i dont read fast enough [19:33] plug your brain into the pc, Kilos [19:33] oh my it will forget how to boot [19:34] harhar [19:37] magedroid, for soldering thin copper wires and all pc stuff get resin core sloder not acid core [19:37] and the thin one works better [19:37] solder [19:38] heat what you wanna solder with the iron then apply solder and it should rund to the two connections and not leave a point behind when removing iron [19:39] I have some, wiil try it on a external crad reade4r that has diconnected wires [19:41] first clean the irons tip onna piece of cloth when hot then tin the tip [19:43] Will do [19:44] maybe ill try make a movie of it sometime [19:45] Cool idea [19:45] when all good the solders runs [19:45] 3 of us soldered all the fone lines in the pta exchange many years ago [19:46] whew [19:46] 40 years ago [19:46] maybe there was only 1000 peeps in pta back then [19:49] I think a few more than tha Kilos, 1002 maybe [19:49] Kilos: sounds like you really need to make a movie from that [19:49] rofl [19:49] its so easy [19:50] Did you hluhluwe was on manual exchange only 15 years ago [19:50] Kilos only if you know how [19:50] first the wires must be clean' [19:50] as in just striiped [19:50] stripped [19:51] that is plastic coating off [19:51] if you can tin each one [19:51] hold it on the freshly tinned iron and touch solder on the wire [19:52] when temp right solder will flow onto wire [19:53] then you put some fresh solder on the iron and put both wires on together same time and solder will join them [19:53] lift off iron and blow cool [19:53] 1 or 2 secs [19:53] well done [19:53] cold wires repel hot solder. [19:53] Will give it a go [19:54] if it leaves points you were too slow to put them on the iron aftyer tinning it [19:54] yip as wires warm to right temp the solder flows onto them [19:54] very easy [19:55] you can practise on thicker wires so you can watch as the temp is right how it flows [19:55] practise on scrap wires first [19:56] oh [19:56] a wet sponge to wipe the iron point clean helps too [19:56] there are some wires without plastic coating in modern things [19:56] get the resin buildup on the tip off [19:56] yip [19:56] i use finger to wipe off [19:56] Kilos, do you have an assorted collection of wires at home? [19:56] finger? eish, hard man. [19:57] bits for speakers and cellphone chargers [19:57] and power cords [19:57] no man [19:57] ;D [19:57] you can dip your finger into molten solder quickly [19:57] only once though [19:58] second time all oil gone and you burn [19:58] Okay then [19:58] oil/fat whatever [19:58] On that note iam off to bed night all [19:58] hehe [19:59] night magedroid sleep tight [19:59] whew me too [19:59] sleep tight kbmonkey and inetpro and all others [19:59] goeie nag oom [19:59] see you tomorrow [19:59] * inetpro gaan ook slaap [19:59] lekker slaap [20:00] ah, [20:01] kbmonkey?

[20:33] superfly: 'sup [20:34] tumbleweed: was just wondering about building packages for PPAs on Launchpad, but then I remembered that you can do that via Recipes, and I've been reading up on that. Looks simple enough. [20:34] it is fairly straightforward, yes [20:34] However, I am beyond tired at the moment, so I'm heading to bed. [20:34] :) [21:12] Hey hey hey [21:12] The CPU on my mom's computer is LGA 775. [21:13] confluency, superfly magespawn *wave* [21:27] inetpro, Heeeey. [21:32] inetpro, Hey hey hey.
