Kilos | hi Trixar_za | 06:31 |
Trixar_za | Hey Kilos | 06:32 |
Kilos | Trixar_za: you busy | 06:59 |
Trixar_za | Why do you ask? | 06:59 |
Kilos | need a brain to try get something or explain how to get it | 07:00 |
Kilos | from a closed down business | 07:00 |
Trixar_za | Ok? | 07:00 |
Kilos | http://web.archive.org/web/20081120051004/http://www.quadmicroworks.com/support/downloads/diskimage.html | 07:01 |
Kilos | need that image | 07:01 |
trender | image comes from waybackmachine when this company was still in business | 07:02 |
Trixar_za | Hmmm, 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 |
trender | common deduction | 07:18 |
trender | i have some korean contacts who claim to have this image | 07:18 |
trender | the product develloper claims to have the image | 07:19 |
trender | but these okes are in no hurry to supply it | 07:19 |
trender | and without this image the 100 boxes i have are just 100 bricks :) | 07:20 |
trender | or 100 lunchboxes | 07:20 |
Kilos | ty Trixar_za | 07:21 |
Trixar_za | Yeah, I saw the one korean site that supplies the newer images | 07:22 |
Trixar_za | But only for two versions of SquareOne devices | 07:22 |
trender | yes this box is sq101 those are all sq201 | 07:23 |
trender | different images for different box | 07:23 |
Kilos | what do they say about upgrading the boxes you have? | 07:23 |
trender | the box is 7 years old mate just making it work again is a challenge :) | 07:24 |
Kilos | hehe | 07:24 |
trender | nobody will spend time upgrading it | 07:24 |
Kilos | i mean if asking them if its possible to upgrade those you have | 07:25 |
Kilos | as in will they supply whats needed | 07:25 |
trender | off course its possible | 07:25 |
trender | but first you need to understand how the box deals with an image file | 07:25 |
trender | its possible to compile a new image from many linux apps to armv4 | 07:26 |
trender | id just be happy to get it working as it was before | 07:27 |
trender | im not interested in building an online coke vending machine | 07:27 |
trender | i know the box has potential | 07:28 |
Trixar_za | Well, you could try something crazy and see if something like Testdisk can recover the image | 07:28 |
trender | i dont have the original disk mate | 07:29 |
trender | i fitted my own disk | 07:29 |
Kilos | testdisk is a forensic data recovery tool | 07:29 |
Kilos | linux tool | 07:29 |
trender | can it recover an image that was never on the box ? | 07:30 |
trender | :) | 07:30 |
Trixar_za | Unlikely | 07:30 |
Trixar_za | :P | 07:30 |
Kilos | can you connect an external dvdrom to them | 07:30 |
trender | nope | 07:30 |
Kilos | nope | 07:30 |
trender | it only has telnet ftp and admin web support | 07:31 |
Kilos | so they first sell the boxes and then you only got the image? | 07:31 |
trender | it has no screen or external interfaces | 07:31 |
Kilos | thats doff | 07:31 |
trender | the image was supposed to be downloaded from website or shipped with a disk | 07:32 |
Kilos | aha | 07:32 |
trender | you would think at least they have the blerry courtesy to send the image on cd | 07:33 |
Kilos | yeah | 07:33 |
trender | arg but like i said this is a project hobby | 07:34 |
trender | i take on high risk projects to make big coins | 07:34 |
trender | this project will yield 1/2 bar when im done with it | 07:34 |
trender | or mabee 1bar if i take it to the limit | 07:35 |
blak_rob | drf | 07:37 |

Squirm | :/ | 09:51 |
Squirm | score? | 09:51 |
Cantide | has anyone succeeded in running 13.04 in virtualbox? | 10:34 |
Cantide | i think it just doesn't like my hardware :'( | 10:34 |
Squirm | :P | 10:41 |
Squirm | I never knew it had been released tbh | 10:41 |
Squirm | last night? | 10:41 |
Cantide | I think Thursday | 10:48 |
Cantide | not working in VirtualBox for me though | 10:55 |
Cantide | so i won't try to install it | 10:55 |
Kilos | hmm... | 11:08 |
trender | hello people | 13:44 |
trender | anybody know how to get around the windows login ? | 13:44 |
trender | i bought a laptop covered in blood and i cant log into windows with the okes fingerprint | 13:45 |
trender | without fingerprint | 13:45 |
Cantide | .. | 13:48 |
Cantide | which version of windows? | 13:48 |
Cantide | check out Hiren's Boot CD | 13:48 |
Kilos | afternoon all | 14:52 |
Kilos | ohi superfly | 15:21 |
superfly | hi Kilos | 15:31 |
magespawn | evening | 15:48 |
magespawn | superfly ping | 15:50 |
superfly | magespawn: pong | 15:56 |
magespawn | superfly did you see trender's question? | 15:58 |
Kilos | hi magespawn | 16:00 |
magespawn | hey Kilos | 16:01 |
Kilos | tried 13.04 here today, much too slow, will move to later ubuntu when got a faster pc | 16:02 |
magespawn | maybe it will speed up later | 16:03 |
magespawn | might also not be working the best with the older hardware | 16:06 |
Kilos | ya i think its the hardware | 16:12 |
Kilos | everything worked but oh so slow and the fading in and out of windows slows it even more | 16:13 |
magespawn | i had to turn off all the effects in kde on my lappy, otherwise it slows to a crawl | 16:18 |
superfly | magespawn: my solution to any windows problem is a linux live cd | 16:24 |
magespawn | was wondering about the blood part of it actually | 16:25 |
superfly | magespawn: saliva | 16:26 |
magespawn | now i am lost | 16:27 |
superfly | magespawn: saliva is the best thing to use to clean blood | 16:37 |
* superfly resists making a really sick joke | 16:38 | |
magespawn | okay then | 16:41 |
magespawn | i will let that one go then | 16:53 |
inetpro | Kilos: check the privacy option in the settings | 16:57 |
inetpro | How 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/4254 | 16:59 |
Kilos | aw does that speed it up inetpro ? ive already put 12.04 back | 17:00 |
inetpro | Dash searching reaches out to online providers every time you type anything in the dash | 17:00 |
inetpro | if you have a slow connection it has a significant impact on performance | 17:01 |
inetpro | it's actually so bad that I fail to understand why they have it on by default | 17:02 |
* inetpro wonders what happens when you type /topic in a channel | 17:11 | |
inetpro | does everyone else see the topic when I do that? | 17:11 |
Symmetria | heh if you're not opped | 17:11 |
magespawn | nope | 17:11 |
Symmetria | it wouldnt change it | 17:11 |
Symmetria | heh so this chick I've been having an on off fling with for about 2 years (when she's actually in the same location as I am) | 17:12 |
inetpro | Symmetria: so I have to copy and paste in order to show the topic to users? | 17:12 |
Symmetria | agreed to come to kenya with me for a week! :) | 17:12 |
Symmetria | inet yeah or tell them to just type /topic #ubuntu-za | 17:12 |
inetpro | ok | 17:12 |
Symmetria | http://valhalla.clue.be/~vort/girlie4.jpg <=== look at that gorgeous women ;p haha that was the photo she gave me permission to share ;p | 17:13 |
Symmetria | (yes its huge, but that photo, its worth the resolution) ;p | 17:13 |
* inetpro wbb | 17:13 | |
* Squirm looks at Symmetria | 17:32 | |
Squirm | how much did you pay her? | 17:32 |
Squirm | just to be there in the first place, let alone like taht | 17:33 |
Symmetria | haha | 17:34 |
Symmetria | squirm she's a very good friend of mine | 17:34 |
Symmetria | :) we get together whenever we're in the same country, she travels as much as I do | 17:34 |
Symmetria | so we kinda hang out in various countries around the world when we are able | 17:34 |
Symmetria | ;p still swear though that she will one day be my future wifey haha | 17:34 |
Symmetria | ;p you gotta admit, she's hot as hell | 17:35 |
Squirm | I didn't want to give you that, but yes she is | 17:36 |
Squirm | I see how this works | 17:37 |
Squirm | you bought her plane ticket to force the being in the same country part | 17:37 |
Symmetria | haha | 17:45 |
Symmetria | no, she was in .za for work | 17:45 |
Symmetria | I just flew to capetown cause she was in .za | 17:45 |
Symmetria | ;p | 17:45 |
superfly | meh. I've dated prettier women in my life. | 18:10 |
inetpro | Kilos: did you disable the privacy stuff? | 18:57 |
inetpro | Maaz: coffee on | 18:57 |
* Maaz puts the kettle on | 18:57 | |
Kilos | inetpro, ty for trying but i had already reinstalled 12.04 unity and was lucky to get 3g working so ill stick here a bit | 18:58 |
Kilos | Maaz, coffee please | 18:58 |
Maaz | Kilos: Done | 18:58 |
inetpro | hmm... | 18:58 |
Kilos | 12.04 unity is definitely faster than 12.04 kde | 18:58 |
Kilos | now i wanna try keep this untiy working | 18:59 |
Kilos | and the support goes way past 13.04"s | 18:59 |
inetpro | why would it stop working? | 19:00 |
Kilos | well you know what QA says it isnt her that breaks things | 19:00 |
Maaz | Coffee's ready for inetpro and Kilos! | 19:01 |
Kilos | Maaz, danke | 19:02 |
Maaz | Bitteschön | 19:02 |
inetpro | Maaz: dankie | 19:02 |
Maaz | Groot plesier inetpro my vriend | 19:02 |
inetpro | Kilos: so you gonna stay awake till 23:00 again? | 19:04 |
Kilos | what for this time inetpro ? | 19:07 |
Kilos | i love wget | 19:07 |
Kilos | connection dropped half way | 19:08 |
inetpro | Kilos: surely you still have some data left? | 19:08 |
Kilos | the -c finishes the download | 19:08 |
Kilos | ya but what to get? | 19:08 |
Kilos | 13.04 will be better if one can stop windows fading like that | 19:09 |
Kilos | thats all resources working hard | 19:09 |
Kilos | but head too sore to stay up tonight again | 19:10 |
Kilos | but only hurts when i breathe | 19:11 |
inetpro | Kilos: stop breathing man | 19:12 |
Kilos | oh and the average download speed was 67 kB/s | 19:12 |
Kilos | tried that too | 19:12 |
Kilos | hehe | 19:12 |
Kilos | hurts more | 19:12 |
Kilos | haha | 19:12 |
inetpro | ai! | 19:12 |
Kilos | remind me monday morning to fight 8ta | 19:13 |
inetpro | an average download speed os 536kbps is not so bad | 19:13 |
inetpro | s/os/of/ | 19:13 |
Kilos | no man it used to be over 200 kB/s | 19:13 |
Kilos | 4 or 5 secs per meg | 19:14 |
inetpro | per megabit you mean | 19:14 |
Kilos | remember when we upgraded same time | 19:14 |
Kilos | megabyte | 19:14 |
inetpro | nee man | 19:14 |
Kilos | 4 secs per meg is how much | 19:14 |
Kilos | im telling you my downloads show in kB/s | 19:15 |
Kilos | not kb/s | 19:15 |
inetpro | wel 200kB/s = 1.6mbps | 19:16 |
inetpro | 4/5 | 19:16 |
inetpro | oops | 19:16 |
inetpro | 1024bytes / 5 seconds = 204.8kBps | 19:17 |
Kilos | used to vary up and down around 290 kB/s before telkom 8ta did whatever they did | 19:17 |
Kilos | ya you see | 19:18 |
Kilos | jammer engelsman | 19:18 |
inetpro | actually 1024MB | 19:18 |
Kilos | no man that gigs already | 19:18 |
inetpro | hmm | 19:18 |
Kilos | 1025kB =1meg | 19:18 |
inetpro | nou maak jy my deurmekruis | 19:18 |
inetpro | jy's reg | 19:19 |
Kilos | rofl | 19:19 |
inetpro | wel | 19:19 |
inetpro | 1024kB = 1MB | 19:19 |
Kilos | ill ride them till its fixed | 19:19 |
inetpro | in other words: 1024kB / 5 seconds = 204.8kBps | 19:20 |
Kilos | thats it | 19:20 |
Kilos | and some times was 4 secs per meg | 19:21 |
Kilos | never used to come under 200 | 19:21 |
Kilos | now never gets near there anymore | 19:21 |
Kilos | grrr | 19:21 |
inetpro | well it also depends where you download from | 19:21 |
Kilos | ac.za place | 19:21 |
Kilos | our main repo | 19:22 |
inetpro | could be that something is not lekker between you and ac.za | 19:22 |
inetpro | in other words beyond 8ta's control | 19:22 |
Kilos | oh you mean maybe not 8ta | 19:22 |
Kilos | well they gonna have to check first | 19:23 |
Kilos | i got no say over repos | 19:23 |
Kilos | oh but also takes forever to open websites so its 8ta | 19:24 |
inetpro | I think those repos were very busy in the last few days | 19:24 |
Kilos | this has been for weeks now | 19:24 |
Kilos | maybe a month or more | 19:24 |
inetpro | tell them | 19:25 |
Kilos | is there a better speed test than speedtest.com | 19:25 |
Kilos | that shows 128 kB/s | 19:25 |
Kilos | last i checked | 19:26 |
Kilos | i will tell them and let you know what they do about it | 19:26 |
Kilos | anyway i gotta sleep now | 19:26 |
Kilos | night guys. sleep tight | 19:27 |
inetpro | Kilos: that would be 1mbps | 19:27 |
inetpro | nag oom | 19:27 |
