=== Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [06:27] good morning Kilos [06:27] and good morning to everyone else [06:27] good morning inetpro [06:27] aloha inetpro [06:27] hi Kilos [06:28] and superfly and others [06:28] Kilos: oom is laat vanoggend. slaap oom nog? :-P [06:29] nee ek gesels met ian. hulle het n inbraak gehad gisteraand terwyl hulle daar was [06:29] gaan dit goed met julle superfly ? [06:30] gellukig het die skelms gehol [06:30] :-( jammer om dit te hoor [06:30] oh good [06:30] Kilos: ja, we're all good. just a bietjie tired, as usual [06:30] ai! julle moet nou en dan slaap ook [06:33] Kilos: we do [06:33] occasionally :-P [06:33] hahaha [06:34] burning the candle at both ends leaves you with a short wick and no base to rest on [06:34] hiya maiatoday [06:35] please try make the meeting on the 15th, some guys wanna discuss what you want for your ubuntu thingie with postcards picks etc [06:36] inetpro, maiatoday ,you wanna add it to the agenda? [06:37] Kilos: we can discuss that in administrativia [06:38] if you want [06:38] oh, doesnt it get added there [06:38] but I think it is quite obvious what maia needs [06:38] yes please, i think its a great idea [06:39] Kilos: all she needs is evidence [06:39] ya man but things like post cards, snail mail sucks [06:39] hmm... [06:39] so wanna know things like emailing photos etc [06:39] not sure I noticed anything about postcards [06:40] or photos [06:40] maybe maia can just explain here Kilos [06:40] ok [06:41] Hi Kilos [06:41] I'll do my best [06:41] are you well maiatoday ? [06:41] no one can ask for more than your best [07:00] morning [07:00] hi Squirm [07:09] good morning [07:09] hi magespawn [07:09] hey [07:11] how do i copy all of a certain type of file from all folders on a drive to another folder on that drive? [07:11] for eg. all *.jpg files [07:12] have you tried just that [07:12] doesn't cp -r *.jpg dest/dir/ work? [07:14] will that take all the files regardless of the dir they are in? [07:14] whew [07:14] -r should be recursive [07:14] so it'll move down the directory structure [07:14] okay will give it a go [07:15] won't -r only recursively copy dirs matching the glob? [07:15] so it won't find anything in a directory in this case [07:16] it'll be quick to test it though [07:16] I was thinking something like find /path/to/disk1 -regex "*.jpg" | xargs cp [07:16] btu I'm not sure about the xargs syntax [07:16] so then i could put all the files in the root of the external drive to have the first command work [07:17] oh wait, you can do it all with just find [07:17] ok, the -r never work for me [07:18] find /path/to/disk1 -name "*.jpg" -exec cp '{}' /path/to/dest/ [07:18] may need a \; at the end there [07:19] http://content.hccfl.edu/pollock/unix/findcmd.htm actually says what I was suggesting with xargs won't work [07:20] I have found a local, cheap supplier of the 8Gb Nexus 4. Is it worth actually buying the 8Gb version? I'm scared I'd run out of space seeing as it can't take a micro sd card :/ [07:20] funny i was just reading that too [07:20] Squirm: depends how you use the phone, basically I only use storage for apps, and some music [07:21] I'm using ~3 gigs on my s3 [07:22] so my specific example would be find /media/The Black Hole -name "*.jpg" -exec cp "{}" /media/The Black Hole/Recovered [07:22] that may infinite loop [07:22] also you need to escap the spaces in The Black Hole [07:22] i never got close to using the 16 gig on my n900 [07:23] cause the nexus 4 beats the S3, only issue is storage. was going to buy the 16Gb but it's too expensive to import it and I found this 8Gb locally [07:23] okay not sure what that means [07:23] like so [07:23] /media/The\ Black\ Hole [07:23] what Squirm said :) [07:24] ah right ty [07:24] Squirm: things that eat storage on a phone, pics and music, think if you will need that much storage [07:24] apps will comfortably fit in a few gb [07:25] I'd like some music. Pics are easy to copy to pc [07:25] So i just insert the back slash after the letter but leave the space too? [07:25] magespawn: yep [07:25] magespawn: you need a backslash before every space [07:25] well every space that doesn't separate different arguments [07:25] before every space in a sungle directory [07:26] what he said [07:26] s/sungle/single [07:26] right thanks guys [07:26] magespawn: rsync [07:26] rsync -a --include '*/' --include '*.mp3' --exclude '*' source/ target/ [07:27] i have 749 directories that i need to move the pictures out of with an average of 500 files per directory all mixed types [07:27] rsync is probably better, I'm not as familiar with it though [07:28] then you could probably do something like [07:28] --include '*.mp3' '*.jpg' '*.png' [07:28] but I don't know rsync [07:28] or you'd need a seperate --include for each file type [07:29] magespawn: see http://maururu.net/2007/rsync-only-files-matching-pattern/ [07:29] ty [07:29] and or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=763833 [07:29] and man rsync [07:30] spaces in names can cause lots of headaches [07:38] i will remember that nest time i rename the external drive [07:41] would it be better if the source and target are two different drives? [07:46] hi zeref what happened to debian? === zeref is now known as zeref_debian [08:02] lappy (zeref) is off [08:02] :D [08:03] ah [08:09] yes to the alst question [08:09] last also [08:12] I see I should be able to put the Nexus into usb host mode too [08:13] and i do need a trailing slash after the source [08:25] magespawn: I don't think it would make a difference. but just put it there :P [08:25] the trailing slash after the source is supposed to stop the creation of new directories [08:53] hi drussell hoe gaan dit [09:06] Kilos: it's all good, how about you? [09:07] good ty drussell [09:10] goeie more Suid Afrika [09:10] morning not_found [09:11] lost again i see [09:11] how are you uncle Kilos ? [09:11] shame [09:11] fine thanks not_found and you lad?

[14:04] old is fine, its lazy thats the prob [14:06] Kilos: there's lots of interesting info in the link above, much more than what your QA gives you [14:07] all we want is the temp now at the moment [14:07] sigh [14:11] * Kilos needs to reboot to kde 12.04 to get QA online === Kilos is now known as weather === weather is now known as Guest40320 === Guest40320 is now known as Kilos- === Kilos- is now known as Kilos [14:17] sjoe [14:38] back to work tomorrow... === magespawn is now known as magestudy [15:26] hi georgelappies [15:26] haha magestudy [15:26] what you studying [15:26] n+ [15:26] hi Kilos, how are you? [15:27] good ty and you?

[15:41] magestudy: like what? [15:41] on the esn, first time i am hearing about it [15:42] ah [15:42] it's an ISP on the TENET backbone [15:42] they give good deals to the education sector [15:42] * magestudy goes to google [15:43] magestudy: http://www.esn.org.za/ [15:43] they even give cheaper rates to staff who work at a school with esn [15:43] have to run. be back in 20 [15:44] shops about to close :p [15:58] later all [16:01] k [16:01] lo [16:43] good eve [16:43] hello '< [16:45] what is up Cantide [16:45] not much :p [16:45] sipping coffee and contemplating typing a heavy email [16:45] what about you? [16:45] it's the 8th. for some reason I thought it's the monthly meet :p [16:45] :D [16:46] we can have an informal meet, just the two of us :p [16:46] umm, that wasn't supposed to sound suggestive -_-; [16:46] lol [16:46] every meet on irc is informal then [16:47] :p [16:47] i just want someone to get 14.04 from the future for me [16:54] in that much of a hurry, huh? [16:54] I'm thinking to rebuild the media pc to include xbmc autoconfigured [16:55] not sure why I couldn't get xbmc installed on 11.04. major dependency collisions === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [17:01] heh [17:01] i should check xbmc out sometime.. [17:01] it must be popular for a reason >_> [17:01] ah, and about 14.04 - I am eager to see Ubuntu Touch and the Ubuntu desktop converge, and Unity Next and Mir look promising :) [17:04] Unity must be popular [17:04] why? [17:04] it was rather controversial about a year ago [17:04] but i think now that people can see the direction in which Canonical is going, Unity makes a lot more sense [17:04] ah you know how users get when their candy changes flavors ;) [17:05] :p [17:05] personally I like trying new things [17:05] so I tried a different wm while unity teeths [17:07] evening kbmonkey cantide [17:07] hey Kilos :) [17:07] which WM did you try?

Do you know them Cantide ? [18:30] I don't.. [18:30] i don't listen to much metal these days [18:30] Rammstein being about the closest to metal that I listen to [18:32] the lead singer is ubuntu's community manager. lol :) [18:32] haha [18:32] their music is free, creative commons [18:32] who is the community manager?
