[09:52] <brobostigon> good morning everyone,
[09:52] <redtape-renegade> morning, morning.. & then there's coffee ..
[09:53] <brobostigon> :)
[10:04] <redtape-renegade> I've just been ropped in help at a charity event .. I knew today was quiet.. a bit too quiet.. :)
[10:43] <czajkowski> aloha
[11:18] <redtape-renegade> czajkowski: Hi there .. hows the legs etc after the kettlebells ?
[11:26] <bigcalm> Hoo har hello
[11:39] <redtape-renegade> morning bigcalm
[11:53] <popey> Morning
[11:53] <brobostigon> morning popey
[11:53] <jacobw> hey popey
[12:45] <redtape-renegade> Afternoon popey
[12:46] <redtape-renegade> Just got a message from a Mr Smith :: http://matrix.jpope.org/notice/52078
[13:36] <popey> redtape-renegade: i have no idea what that's all about
[13:42] <popey> bigcalm: played Night Sky?
[14:11] <redtape-renegade> popey, Just showing off statusnet.. I know your not a fan .. I'll stay on-topic from now on .. sorry
[14:40] <popey> redtape-renegade: oh, that's status.net? never seen it themed
[14:46] <popey> redtape-renegade: also, it's not a problem being offtopic, it's just you often post seemingly random URLs with no context so I have a hard time knowing why
[14:47] <MartijnVdS> hmm
[14:47] <MartijnVdS> where did my GTK/Nautilus bookmarks go?
[14:48] <MartijnVdS> Only the ones that point to somewhere in ~ are left somehow
[14:50] <czajkowski> BigRedS: boo
[14:53] <redtape-renegade> Does anyone here use GADMIN-Bind AKA: Bind9 ??? .. trying to set up pdnsd .. no luck so far ..
[14:54] <redtape-renegade> Prob.ly asked before .. but I forget things .. but I'm using Lifeograph .. improving .. :)
[15:36] <redtape-renegade> OH Man I just trashed my system .. I ran all the commands on this page for pdnsd [2nd one down].. but I have no internet now .. http://askubuntu.com/questions/22750/best-way-to-set-up-dns-caching
[15:38] <shauno> most likely your internet is fine, you just have no name resolution.  just put your dns settings back to normal (usually your routers address, or 8.8.8.8, or if you happen to remember what your isp provides ..)
[15:39] <shauno> and don't point it to localhost until "dig google.com @127.0.0.1" works
[15:40] <redtape-renegade> ok .. I willcheck hangon.. shauno
[15:48] <shauno> (also, most references to resolv.conf there look outdated, change that through networkmanager, else you'll get in a fight with resolvconf now)
[15:58] <redtape-renegade> shauno, No, I'm comletely shafted. I dont know any of my router ip address's or anything... Also network manager is not good with my flavour.
[15:58] <shauno> you can usually get away with using 8.8.8.8 (a public server google provide)
[16:03] <redtape-renegade> I gonna have start from scratch all over again ... complete reinstall.. I'll just have to try Xubuntu this time :(
[16:05] <redtape-renegade> .. I just never got Xubuntu to work with my monitor to resize the screen.. for an external VGA monitor .. guess that's my first quest to find out.
[16:38] <redtape-renegade> I think I will wait till I get the AMD bracket (which I'm told shipied today:) ).. and set up my system properly, then.
[16:38] <redtape-renegade> It's XP this weekend :(
[16:47] <jacobw> bracket?
[17:22] <redtape-renegade> jacobw, You'll have to go thru the log from yesterday.. I'm not going thru all that agian.
[17:22] <redtape-renegade> Is everyone at that Hacknchat thingy today ?
[17:26] <ali1234> jacobw: bracket for CPU heatsink
[17:27] <jacobw> I see
[17:28] <popey> waking my pc up with the kb/mouse more effective when it's actually on
[17:38] <redtape-renegade> & the Hacjntalk thingy .. is that today ??
[17:39] <popey> it was
[17:39] <redtape-renegade> soz. on a 6 ich keyboard :/
[17:39] <redtape-renegade> **inch
[17:41] <redtape-renegade> Is there any kinda of 'log' at all for those things ? .. And whereo where was the google hangout ..I was looking forward to being teleported to some atrium in London, today.
[18:47] <redtape-renegade> no response.. I'll take that as a No.
[18:47] <redtape-renegade> Why is the new Desktop Environment called Mir ?
[18:54] <popey> we like to name stuff after space related stuff
[18:57] <sebsebseb> hi
[19:00] <popey> hi sebsebseb
[19:18] <SuperEngineer> boo!
[19:23] <SuperEngineer> what? nobody jumped? /me thinks: must put boo! in upper case next time ;)
[19:32] <sebsebseb> popey: hi
[19:33] <sebsebseb> popey: met zleap today
[19:52]  * xnox 's new desktop doesn't boot.
[19:53] <xnox> http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/332894-12-z77x-video-bios
[19:53]  * xnox is sad.
[19:53] <xnox> Laney: czajkowski ^^^^
[19:59]  * xnox wishes for a wizard to come around and boot my machines
[20:01] <Laney> oh no :(
[20:04] <xnox> Laney: yeah my fun weekend rebuilding debian archive against boost1.53 became my boring weekend of unplugging everything from my motherboard in the hope of getting it to boot into bios.
[20:05] <xnox> maybe I should have gone for a prebuild machine....
[20:11] <directhex> invaluable resource: a friend with the same socket type, so you can play swap-the-component
[20:18] <cliftonts> Hi guys, is there anyone here running 13.04 or perhaps 12.10 who could try something for me to confirm it's a bug?
[20:19] <popey> sure
[20:25] <popey> ah well
[20:26] <Fujisan> hello popey
[20:27] <popey> hello
[20:29] <popey> sebsebseb: went to paignton lug?
[20:41] <nucc1> i bought an app from ubuntu software centre today, given that I do a clean install every 6 months, will i still be abl to install the app for free next time?
[20:41] <popey> yes
[20:41] <nucc1> awesome :)
[20:41] <popey> its tied to your ubuntu one single sign on thingy
[20:41] <popey> there is an option in software centre to reinstall purchases i think?
[20:42] <nucc1> cool, i figured they'd have thought of that, but i needed to be sure
[20:43] <popey> the only gotcha..
[20:43] <popey> its possible the app is built for 12.04 or 12.10, and may not have its packaging updated for 13.04 and beyond
[20:43] <popey> but you can certainly download and try
[20:43] <nucc1> yea, i guess that much
[20:43] <nucc1> that's fair enough, IMO
[21:22] <Azelphur> Anyone recommend a cheap little DD-WRT capable router for small events?
[21:23] <Fujisan> linksys
[21:23] <Azelphur> you accidentally the model number.
[21:36] <czajkowski> xnox: oh noes
[21:37] <czajkowski> eveing folks
[21:41] <czajkowski> grr on start up keep getting this crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1041790
[21:42] <popey> Azelphur: WNDR 3700
[21:42] <popey> czajkowski: welcome to the club
[21:42] <Azelphur> kinda pricey
[21:42] <popey> use the workaround
[21:42] <Azelphur> it's really only for 5-10 people to connect to in a small area
[21:43] <popey> i have two, one running dd-wrt next to my desk, one running open-wrt under the bed :D
[21:43] <Azelphur> hehe
[21:43] <Azelphur> popey: is openwrt significantly better than dd-wrt?
[21:44] <czajkowski> ahhh
[21:44] <popey> depends what your requirement is
[21:44] <czajkowski> BigRedS: ello :)
[21:44] <popey> dd-wrt = easier admin
[21:44] <popey> open-wrt = more flexible
[21:44] <popey> e.g. open-wrt does bringing pretty easily, dd-wrt does not
[21:44] <Azelphur> bridging?
[21:44] <popey> open-wrt can be controlled in the same way as many other linux boxes from the command line
[21:44] <popey> yeah, so lemme splain
[21:45] <Azelphur> yea, I mean I'd mostly be interested in all the features that dd-wrt doesn't have unless you pay them
[21:45] <Azelphur> like bandwidth stats
[21:45] <czajkowski> got to hear about http://www.stemnet.org.uk/content/ambassadors
[21:45] <czajkowski> could be interesting to folks in here
[21:45] <popey> internet -> cable modem (modem only mode) -> dd-wrt (doing dhcp etc) -> network cable -> open-wrt (bridged)
[21:45] <popey> open-wrt doesn't do dhcp, it bridges the network so i get my ip from the dd-wrt router
[21:48] <Azelphur> for a bridge, don't you just turn off DHCP?
[21:48] <Azelphur> that's all I do
[21:49]  * popey shrugs
[21:49] <popey> ☺
[21:49] <Azelphur> hehe
[21:50] <Azelphur> I want to try out trine 2 but their demo is broken :<
[22:24] <redtape-renegade> If grumpy cat were a mascot .. what would it be for ??

[22:25] <redtape-renegade> Mmmm SXSW .. maybe next year ... dunno.
[23:06] <redtape-renegade> ebay.co.uk bid's system is a mess now .. looks more like I'm shopping at penny's or something. The attraction of getting something on the cheap at the heart of the old site has been completely torn out.
[23:09] <redtape-renegade> .. and it's rigged with step-bids that go up £3 a time after twenty quid. Could 've bought the site for 750million in 2009.. they should've asked me last week .. & I'd have cut the redtape all over it.
[23:09] <redtape-renegade> .. bye for now..
