| TheOpenSourcerer | Hi aptanet, morning popey | 08:59 |
| nigelb | Hey TheOpenSourcerer | 08:59 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | hey nigelb how's it going? long time no see | 08:59 |
| nigelb | TheOpenSourcerer: Going good. I'm in London! | 09:00 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Cool. | 09:00 |
| popey | yo yo yo | 09:00 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | For good, or just visiting? | 09:00 |
| nigelb | just visiting. | 09:00 |
| nigelb | I'll be here for 3 weeks, I hope to meet as many of you guys as I can manage ;) | 09:00 |
| popey | London all of that time or moving about? | 09:01 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | That sounds like a plan. | 09:01 |
| nigelb | Cambridge for a week. | 09:01 |
| nigelb | Otherwise, I'll be in London most days I think. | 09:01 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | popey: Ever written any tips on screencasting? | 09:05 |
| popey | nah, they're mostly in my head | 09:08 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | OK - ta. | 09:08 |
| popey | anything specific you were after? | 09:09 |
| aptanet | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreencastTeam/RecordingScreencasts | 09:09 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Not really. I have a new module for vtiger I want to screencast. | 09:09 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Thanks aptanet | 09:09 |
| popey | that page is old and outdated | 09:10 |
| aptanet | by popey ;) | 09:10 |
| aptanet | yes, the three on your blog are a bit old too | 09:10 |
| * popey brainstorms | 09:10 | |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I was just going to write some script notes first then do it. | 09:10 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | On a clean desktop | 09:10 |
| aptanet | I've found Kazam better than record my desktop | 09:10 |
| aptanet | although it is prone to stopping responding I find | 09:11 |
| popey | http://beta.etherpad.org/p/screencasting | 09:12 |
| popey | lets go! | 09:12 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | :-) | 09:12 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | That etherpad keeps dropping out. | 09:13 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 09:17 |
| popey | strange, fine here | 09:18 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | It's OK now seemingly. | 09:18 |
| awilkins | Not having problems | 09:19 |
| diplo | I still love watching multiple edits on documents, its the future :) | 09:26 |
| aptanet | when you're thinking about typing something and it appears from somewhere else if fun! | 09:27 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Nice, one of our VMs has a Load Avg of 68 :-) | 09:27 |

| knightwise | hey hoover | 09:38 |
| timp | Hi, I tried to install 10.04 from dvd on external optical drive on a MacBook Pro, last years (non-retina) model. It nearly worked: i even heard the little drum role, but the screen remained completely blank. | 09:39 |
| timp | Any suggestions? | 09:39 |
| knightwise | 10.04 ? | 09:39 |
| timp | yes | 09:39 |
| knightwise | 12.04 works out of the box. | 09:39 |
| timp | Doh, sorry, 12.04 | 09:40 |
| timp | Nope# | 09:40 |
| knightwise | http://maketecheasier.com/install-ubuntu-12-10-in-macbook-air/2012/11/08 | 09:40 |
| knightwise | thats odd. | 09:40 |
| knightwise | are you using the amd/mac iso ? | 09:40 |
| timp | The standard amd iso | 09:41 |
| timp | thanks for the link, I will try again tonight. | 09:41 |
| knightwise | could be a no-acpi settins in grub | 09:43 |
| knightwise | i had that problem too | 09:43 |

| brobostigon | good morning everyone, | 10:28 |
| popey | yo | 10:33 |
| brobostigon | morning popey | 10:34 |
| bigcalm_laptop | Good morning peeps :) | 10:35 |
| brobostigon | morning bigcalm_laptop | 10:35 |
| bigcalm_laptop | Hi brobostigon | 10:36 |
| brobostigon | ok, lets say. i used get-iplayer, to download something to my rpi, how would you stream that from there to another machine on the same network, whith the rpi being headless ? | 10:43 |
| gord | smbfs? ssh+ftp? | 10:44 |
| diplo | I have a similar setup, albeit a microserver and yeah as gord says I stick it in a samba share | 10:45 |
| diplo | and point xbmc in my case to said samba share | 10:45 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | brobostigon: dlna, rygel? | 10:46 |
| gord | is what i do, i've also used a upnp setup in the past too, which worked well and something i want to explore in the future but xbmc was a bit buggy with it at the time | 10:46 |
| brobostigon | two questions, will it download the whole file before playback? and how can i get it to do that without having to download said file wholly or partially first ? | 10:46 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | dlna/upnp I think is a proper streaming service. | 10:46 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | It works on my TV from my home server. | 10:47 |
| brobostigon | ok, let me make notes, and research those possibilities. | 10:47 |
| gord | it won't download the whole file before playback, unless your video player is beyond terrible | 10:47 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | If you are using a Pi though you probably don't want to do real-time encoding ;-) | 10:47 |
| * bigcalm_laptop pokes gord | 10:48 | |
| brobostigon | gord: ok, i just remeber some attempts at this before. doing that, | 10:48 |
| * bigcalm_laptop pokes mrevell | 10:48 | |
| gord | only thing i have seen download the whole file before playback is a sftp filesystem extension for windows that would download the files to a temporary directory before letting the thing open it | 10:48 |
| * gord is poked | 10:48 | |
| mrevell | AH, hey bigcalm_laptop. I got back late from a meet-up in Manchester last night so I'm still at home. Are you all there? | 10:48 |
| brobostigon | gord: ah, | 10:49 |
| bigcalm_laptop | mrevell: davmor2 and myself are here | 10:50 |
| bigcalm_laptop | mrevell: you're welcome to join us | 10:50 |
| brobostigon | TheOpenSourcerer: good point, yes. | 10:51 |
| davmor2 | mrevell: yeah come you can tell us all about your new job and the globe trotting that you are doing :) | 10:51 |
| mrevell | heh :) | 10:52 |
| === Hornet- is now known as Hornet | ||
| brobostigon | minidlna seems a good candidate, for what i am looking for. | 11:18 |
| bigcalm_laptop | Is that the mysql drop in replacement? | 11:19 |
| bigcalm_laptop | Oh, maybe not. I think I'm still a little tired today | 11:19 |
| SuperMatt | no, you're thinking of maria | 11:20 |
| SuperMatt | the only thing that's stopping me from dropping postgres on unsuspecting asses over here is bloody wordpress | 11:21 |
| SuperMatt | though I guess if I can prove that wordpress works fine with maria, then I might be able to convince the devs to make the switch | 11:24 |
| bigcalm_laptop | SuperMatt: drizzle is another drop in replacement for mysql | 11:33 |
| SuperMatt | considering that fedora 19 may go maria (if it ever gets out of the door), and it's being developed by formers mysql devs, maria might be the better option | 11:34 |
| SuperMatt | hah, silly me | 11:45 |
| SuperMatt | the maria db wikipedia page says wordpress is "officially supported" | 11:45 |
| SuperMatt | I'm just going to have a look around to see where I can find that "official" confirmation | 11:45 |
| SuperMatt | brilliant, zend support it too, so I could move everything across the maria 10 | 11:47 |
| SuperMatt | or just keep maria for wordpress and use postgres for everything else | 11:47 |
| hoover | Should be ok to use maria as it's a drop-in binary replacement for mysql | 11:56 |
| SuperMatt | well, currently it is ;) | 12:13 |
| SuperMatt | I don't imagine that if maria and mysql were no longer compatible that wordpress would stop working | 12:13 |
| SuperMatt | it's not like wordpress sites need to worry about transactions, etc | 12:13 |
| brobostigon | what the best format for videos to be in, so that dlna can playback and stream them properly ? | 12:34 |
| brobostigon | btw, i got minidlna up and running properly, :) | 12:35 |
| popey | i dont think dnla cares | 12:35 |
| popey | the client might | 12:35 |
| brobostigon | hmm, get-iplayer and minidlna end, it is a .flv | 12:35 |
| popey | h264 seems to be the codec of choice which plays on most things | 12:35 |
| popey | flv is the container | 12:36 |
| brobostigon | ok. | 12:36 |
| popey | what's inside it? | 12:36 |
| popey | get_iplayer usually converts .flv to .mp4 when it finishes iirc | 12:36 |
| brobostigon | how do i find out from cli ? | 12:36 |
| popey | mplayer will tell you | 12:36 |
| Azelphur | doesn't iplayer serve mp4 as it's high quality option? | 12:37 |
| brobostigon | it didnt convert it to mp4 for some reason. | 12:37 |
| popey | do you have libav/ffmpeg installed? | 12:37 |
| popey | if not it wont | 12:37 |
| gord | most things that can play h264 can also play flv though | 12:37 |
| brobostigon | popey: ah, ok. let me try again then. | 12:37 |
| popey | Selected video codec: [ffh264] vfm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg H.264) | 12:38 |
| popey | Selected audio codec: [ffac3] afm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg AC-3) | 12:38 |
| popey | for example is what you might get from mplayer | 12:38 |
| brobostigon | i have installed ffmpeg now, so will try and pull a different video off iplayer, and see whats happens. | 12:39 |
| popey | or just manually convert one you already have | 12:40 |
| popey | i think get_iplayer just changes the container, not the internal codecs | 12:41 |
| brobostigon | i will have to do that yes. | 12:41 |
| brobostigon | ah. | 12:41 |
| popey | what are you playing them with? | 12:41 |
| popey | i.e. what frontend? | 12:41 |
| brobostigon | mediahouse on my nexus7. is the first client i tried. | 12:41 |
| einonm | gord: watch out though, flv is a container, whereas h.264 is a video codec, so there is quite a difference | 12:42 |
| popey | https://www.theyetee.com/ | 12:44 |
| popey | oops | 12:44 |
| brobostigon | spoton popey , ffmpeg was the problem. | 12:45 |
| popey | cool | 12:45 |
| brobostigon | WOOP | 12:48 |
| brobostigon | it is working really quite well. i am impressed. | 13:06 |
| knightwise | hey popey brobostigon | 13:18 |
| brobostigon | hey knightwise | 13:19 |
| knightwise | hmm.. i'm using the nxfree nomachine client / server | 13:27 |
| knightwise | but it doesnt seem to like unity very much :( | 13:27 |
| brobostigon | i wonder, if there is an risk of the rpi overheating and burning,? hmmm, | 13:28 |
| knightwise | is there still an lts supported version without unity (with standard gnome ?) | 13:34 |
| knightwise | or has that also gone the way of the dodo ? | 13:34 |
| brobostigon | standard gnome is there is the repos, and i beleieve there is a gnome-ubuntu remix. | 13:35 |
| knightwise | standard gnome ? but thats gnome 3 ..right ? | 13:36 |
| brobostigon | yes. | 13:37 |
| knightwise | hmm.. dunno if the Nomachine client likes that any better | 13:41 |
| diplo | knightwise: xfce ? | 13:42 |
| knightwise | sure ,b ut then you need to hack some preferences into the nxclient and i've tried several things. | 13:46 |
| BigRedS | I'm after an XMPP client that supports a few different accounts being configured, but lets me treat them separately, anyone know of any? | 13:49 |
| BigRedS | so (easy) different statuses/messages for each, ideally separate contact lists. I'm thinking basically Pidgin's interface but tabbed... | 13:49 |
| knightwise | BigRedS: Centerim ? | 13:54 |
| BigRedS | knightwise: oooh, perhaps. Hadn't considered text-mode. | 13:55 |
| BigRedS | thansk! | 13:55 |
| BigRedS | haha, you can judge software's maintenance activity by which woman is in the photo in the background of the screenshot... | 13:56 |
| knightwise | ah , i got it | 14:00 |
| awilkins | BigRedS, Are we saying the maintenance is inversely proportional to how attractive the screenshot people are? | 14:00 |
| knightwise | need to specify what desktop the nomachine client should launch | 14:00 |
| knightwise | works nog | 14:00 |
| knightwise | now | 14:00 |
| awilkins | BigRedS, ie ; super hot - obv. rubbish software being covered up by glitz? | 14:00 |
| knightwise | whow | 14:07 |
| knightwise | remote desktop with NXclient (running XFCE on the far end) is FAST ! | 14:07 |
| BigRedS | awilkins: haha, nah just which woman is in the background. Though I'm not sure who it would be now... | 14:08 |
| knightwise | what screenshot are you referring to ? | 14:09 |
| BigRedS | http://www.centerim.org/index.php/File:Centerim-screenshot.png | 14:10 |
| awilkins | An old shot of Alysson Hannigan | 14:10 |
| awilkins | From this we can infer the software is maintained by people who liked Buffy the Vampire Slayer | 14:11 |
| knightwise | aah the allison hannigan wallpaper ? | 14:12 |
| * knightwise had big time nerd crush on her | 14:12 | |
| knightwise | and i still think she's hot | 14:12 |
| knightwise | had her on my wallpaper for a long time. | 14:12 |
| knightwise | Currently boasting artwork from "the mad shipyards" (google to find out) | 14:12 |
| awilkins | She gets hotter as time goes on, if anything | 14:12 |
| knightwise | indeed | 14:13 |
| knightwise | do i like her in ginger more then in dark brown | 14:13 |
| awilkins | Her turn in "How I Met Your Mother" is nothing short of inspired | 14:13 |
| dwatkins | Gillian Anderson is awesome | 14:13 |
| knightwise | gillian anderson ? | 14:13 |
| awilkins | X-Files Scully | 14:13 |
| dwatkins | yeah awilkins | 14:13 |
| knightwise | oh Skully | 14:13 |
| awilkins | I had the issue of FHM that was trading for £10 a copy on ebay | 14:13 |
| dwatkins | Karin Gillian isn't bad either, can you detect a theme? | 14:13 |
| knightwise | yeah .. she's like the big sis everybody wanted as a kid | 14:13 |
| awilkins | The one with Gillian Anderson in her underwear | 14:14 |
| knightwise | http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CHlMXEsEMkY/UNQOSoSLYII/AAAAAAAAAyc/DVc3N2UBPzM/s1600/gillian_anderson_4.jpg | 14:14 |
| knightwise | sooo pretty | 14:14 |
| knightwise | cool :) Lxde remote desktop is lightning fast :) | 14:21 |
| SuperMatt | I would love if someone in canonical worked on a proper rdp contender for linux | 14:22 |
| BigRedS | ssh -x | 14:22 |
| * BigRedS doesn't use rdp | 14:22 | |
| SuperMatt | I know we have x-forwarding, but it's not the same as having a whole desktop running quite fast | 14:22 |
| SuperMatt | and I mean faster than vnc too | 14:22 |
| SuperMatt | I had to work from home on monday and vnc was painful | 14:23 |
| dwatkins | NX and VNC are fine for what I need | 14:23 |
| AlanBell | SuperMatt: I suspect someone will do something with wayland | 14:28 |
| AlanBell | http://wayland.freedesktop.org/faq.html#heading_toc_j_8 | 14:29 |
| knightwise | SuperMatt: you need to connect to a windows machine ? | 14:29 |
| knightwise | I am currently using NXFree , but thats not realy an 'remote desktop' client | 14:30 |
| knightwise | more of a terminal server one | 14:30 |
| knightwise | ha : ) | 14:32 |
| knightwise | used NXfree to connect to a virtual machine i'm running at home | 14:32 |
| knightwise | virtual machine is also running with another user logged in | 14:33 |
| knightwise | using vnc to connect to the other X session of that user :) | 14:33 |
| dwatkins | I often use NX to remote control my machine at home, especially as it has less port restrictions than the office network | 14:34 |
| SuperMatt | knightwise: no, not connecting to windows. | 14:36 |
| SuperMatt | RDP just seems to do remote displays way better than vnc | 14:36 |
| SuperMatt | xfordwarding is nice for the odd app or two, but it can't replace being able to access your hole desktop | 14:36 |
| awilkins | I think there's an RDP server for Linux somewhere, when I mention it here people link it | 14:40 |
| awilkins | http://www.xrdp.org/ | 14:40 |
| * SuperMatt nods | 14:40 | |
| SuperMatt | I've never managed to get that to load unity though | 14:40 |
| SuperMatt | could just be me | 14:41 |
| knightwise | SuperMatt: i know you'll swear at me but .. teamviewer isn't so bad | 14:41 |
| SuperMatt | maybe I should just try xrdp when I get home | 14:43 |

| andrewebdev | I've just finished setting up for myself a new pc, and I'm wondering if it's possible to just copy my private ssh key to the new computer, from my old laptop, or should I generate a new one? | 16:01 |
| brobostigon | another question, what controls inside dlna, the quality of playback on the client ? is it directly the source video quality? | 16:01 |
| popey | andrewebdev: is your old laptop being decommissioned? | 16:02 |
| solarcloud_3srcn | AlanBell: Well, at least the #channel is going, at last, today .. thanx everyone. | 16:02 |
| andrewebdev | popey, I am planning to still use it | 16:03 |
| popey | if so, I'd copy ~/.ssh over, if not, and you're keeping both machines, I'd create a new one | 16:03 |
| andrewebdev | ok thx | 16:03 |
| popey | so if you lose one machine (or it gets stolen or compromised) you can remove that one key from remote machines and keep the safe one | 16:03 |
| andrewebdev | ah i see that makes sense yes | 16:03 |
| einonm1 | brobostigon: I'm not sure if dlna dlna adaptive streaming | 16:03 |
| andrewebdev | ta :) | 16:03 |
| einonm1 | ...dlna has adaptive streaming | 16:03 |
| brobostigon | einonm1: so it adjusts to the client ? | 16:04 |
| einonm1 | to the link speed, if it is present. As I said, I'm not sure if DLNA does that. | 16:04 |
| brobostigon | einonm1: ok, thank you, | 16:05 |
| einonm1 | basically, it first tests if it can shove the best quality stream down the pipe - if it can't it tries the next best etc. | 16:05 |
| brobostigon | ah, i see. | 16:05 |
| einonm1 | but you need either multiple streams of different quality, or (like on blu-ray) a codec that can cope with adaptive bitrates | 16:05 |
| brobostigon | good point, | 16:06 |
| popey | brobostigon: what client are you using? | 16:08 |
| brobostigon | popey: mediahouse on android 4.2.1 | 16:09 |

| brobostigon | not bad, weird menu system, but seems to work well enough, | 16:10 |
| brobostigon | it was simply the first one i found, so i choose it by chance. | 16:10 |

| cocoa117 | when using nfsv4 to export filesystem to linux client. does the locally bind filesystem automatically export? | 18:58 |
| cocoa117 | e.g. /media/pool/family on /srv/sto/home/pans/multimedia type none (rw,bind) | 18:59 |
| cocoa117 | so when i exports /srv/sto/home as root to clients, do i get access to the /meida/pool/family folder? | 19:00 |

| Azelphur | half life 1 :P | 23:06 |
| directhex | popey, hl1, just released for linux and osx | 23:06 |
| directhex | as in 11 minutes ago | 23:06 |
| Azelphur | WHAT | 23:06 |
| * Azelphur downloads hard. | 23:06 | |
| popey | hah | 23:06 |
| Azelphur | aww, I only have half life source. | 23:12 |
| directhex | steam steam://install/70 | 23:12 |

| Azelphur | yea just takes me to the buy page | 23:13 |
| solarcloud_3srcn | I remember a lot of this :: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/55128914/Lubuntu%20docs/Half%20Life%20Loading%20Bar.PNG | 23:21 |
| directhex | solarcloud_3srcn, then you're a youngun. there was no bar like that in pre-steam half-life | 23:23 |
| directhex | remember, this is a game from 1998 | 23:23 |
| solarcloud_3srcn | mmmmphf .... '98 tech .. What's the big deal about then ?? | 23:24 |
| cambrianExplosio | Hi everyone, is anyone using Ubuntu on a Macbook here? | 23:25 |
| solarcloud_3srcn | not me .. | 23:25 |
| directhex | well, there was no steam. half-life came instead with "sierra utilities". which had a minor bug whereby it would delete all your files when you uninstalled it | 23:26 |
| directhex | half-life patch day was hell. a 45-meg patch on 28.8k dialup was lame | 23:26 |
| solarcloud_3srcn | Sounds familiar. | 23:26 |
| solarcloud_3srcn | mmmmhpf .... '98 tech .. What's the big deal about *today* ,then ?? | 23:31 |
| directhex | solarcloud_3srcn, well, it's been ported to linux and osx, and released within the last hour | 23:33 |
| directhex | part of why that's interesting is a) steam for mac came out years ago, yet never saw ports of hl1-based games, and b) the rather messy history of the unreleased osx port | 23:34 |
| solarcloud_3srcn | screw this |||||||||||||||||||||||||||| I'm seeing what www.phoronix.com says ... | 23:35 |
| popey | that's an interesting point directhex, I hadn't considered that. | 23:42 |
| popey | we're up to what? 60+ Linux games on steam now? | 23:42 |
| directhex | popey, fully working, or in the CDR? | 23:42 |
| popey | both? | 23:43 |
| directhex | 45 and 84 respectively | 23:45 |
| directhex | YMMV. IANAL. IDDQD. | 23:46 |
| directhex | i have 53 of them | 23:46 |
