Kilosmorning all05:49
=== Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za
Kiloshi Trixar_za 06:31
Trixar_zaHey Kilos06:32
KilosTrixar_za: you busy06:59
Trixar_zaWhy do you ask?06:59
Kilosneed a brain to try get something or explain how to get it07:00
Kilosfrom a closed down business07:00
Trixar_zaOk?07:00
Kiloshttp://web.archive.org/web/20081120051004/http://www.quadmicroworks.com/support/downloads/diskimage.html07:01
Kilosneed that image07:01
trenderimage comes from waybackmachine when this company was still in business07:02
Trixar_zaHmmm, I checked around and unless you own a new SquareOne product or can find somebody that backed up that image file, it's unlikely that you'd be able to get a copy of it.07:17
trendercommon deduction07:18
trenderi have some korean contacts who claim to have this image07:18
trenderthe product develloper claims to have the image07:19
trenderbut these okes are in no hurry to supply it07:19
trenderand without this image the 100 boxes i have are just 100 bricks :)07:20
trenderor 100 lunchboxes07:20
Kilosty Trixar_za 07:21
Trixar_zaYeah, I saw the one korean site that supplies the newer images07:22
Trixar_zaBut only for two versions of SquareOne devices07:22
trenderyes this box is sq101 those are all sq20107:23
trenderdifferent images for different box07:23
Kiloswhat do they say about upgrading the boxes you have?07:23
trenderthe box is 7 years old mate just making it work again is a challenge :)07:24
Kiloshehe07:24
trendernobody will spend time upgrading it07:24
Kilosi mean if asking them if its possible to upgrade those you have07:25
Kilosas in will they supply whats needed07:25
trenderoff course its possible07:25
trenderbut first you need to understand how the box deals with an image file07:25
trenderits possible to compile a new image from many linux apps to armv407:26
trenderid just be happy to get it working as it was before07:27
trenderim not interested in building an online coke vending machine07:27
trenderi know the box has potential07:28
Trixar_zaWell, you could try something crazy and see if something like Testdisk can recover the image07:28
trenderi dont have the original disk mate07:29
trenderi fitted my own disk07:29
Kilostestdisk is a forensic data recovery tool07:29
Kiloslinux tool07:29
trendercan it recover an image that was never on the box ?07:30
trender:)07:30
Trixar_zaUnlikely07:30
Trixar_za:P07:30
Kiloscan you connect an external dvdrom to them07:30
trendernope07:30
Kilosnope07:30
trenderit only has telnet ftp and admin web support07:31
Kilosso they first sell the boxes and then you only got the image?07:31
trenderit has no screen or external interfaces07:31
Kilosthats doff07:31
trenderthe image was supposed to be downloaded from website or shipped with a disk07:32
Kilosaha07:32
trenderyou would think at least they have the blerry courtesy to send the image on cd07:33
Kilosyeah07:33
trenderarg but like i said this is a project hobby07:34
trenderi take on high risk projects to make big coins07:34
trenderthis project will yield 1/2 bar when im done with it07:34
trenderor mabee 1bar if i take it to the limit07:35

superflymagespawn: pong15:56
magespawnsuperfly did you see trender's question?15:58
Kiloshi magespawn 16:00
magespawnhey Kilos16:01
Kilostried 13.04 here today, much too slow, will move to later ubuntu when got a faster pc16:02
magespawnmaybe it will speed up later16:03
magespawnmight also not be working the best with the older hardware16:06
Kilosya i think its the hardware16:12
Kiloseverything worked but oh so slow and the fading in and out of windows slows it even more16:13
magespawn i had to turn off all the effects in kde on my lappy, otherwise it slows to a crawl16:18
superflymagespawn: my solution to any windows problem is a linux live cd16:24
magespawnwas wondering about the blood part of it actually16:25
superflymagespawn: saliva16:26
magespawnnow i am lost16:27
superflymagespawn: saliva is the best thing to use to clean blood16:37
* superfly resists making a really sick joke16:38
magespawnokay then16:41
magespawni will let that one go then16:53
inetproKilos: check the privacy option in the settings16:57
inetproHow to change your privacy settings in Ubuntu's Unity Dash http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/opensource/how-to-change-your-privacy-settings-in-ubuntus-unity-dash/425416:59
Kilosaw does that speed it up inetpro ? ive already put 12.04 back17:00
inetproDash searching reaches out to online providers every time you type anything in the dash17:00
inetproif you have a slow connection it has a significant impact on performance17:01
inetproit's actually so bad that I fail to understand why they have it on by default17:02
* inetpro wonders what happens when you type /topic in a channel17:11
inetprodoes everyone else see the topic when I do that?17:11
Symmetriaheh if you're not opped17:11
magespawnnope17:11
