[05:49] <Kilos> morning all
[06:31] <Kilos> hi Trixar_za 
[06:32] <Trixar_za> Hey Kilos
[06:59] <Kilos> Trixar_za: you busy
[06:59] <Trixar_za> Why do you ask?
[07:00] <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?
[07:01] <Kilos> http://web.archive.org/web/20081120051004/http://www.quadmicroworks.com/support/downloads/diskimage.html
[07:01] <Kilos> need that image
[07:02] <trender> image comes from waybackmachine when this company was still in business
[07:17] <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.
[07:18] <trender> common deduction
[07:18] <trender> i have some korean contacts who claim to have this image
[07:19] <trender> the product develloper claims to have the image
[07:19] <trender> but these okes are in no hurry to supply it
[07:20] <trender> and without this image the 100 boxes i have are just 100 bricks :)
[07:20] <trender> or 100 lunchboxes
[07:21] <Kilos> ty Trixar_za 
[07:22] <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
[07:23] <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?
[07:24] <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
[07:25] <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
[07:26] <trender> its possible to compile a new image from many linux apps to armv4
[07:27] <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
[07:28] <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
[07:29] <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
[07:30] <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
[07:31] <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
[07:32] <trender> the image was supposed to be downloaded from website or shipped with a disk
[07:32] <Kilos> aha
[07:33] <trender> you would think at least they have the blerry courtesy to send the image on cd
[07:33] <Kilos> yeah
[07:34] <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
[07:35] <trender> or mabee 1bar if i take it to the limit
[07:37] <blak_rob> drf
[07:37] <Kilos> hi blak_rob 
[07:38] <Kilos> welcome to ubuntu-za
[07:38] <blak_rob> sup kilos

[09:04] <Squirm> morning
[09:26] <Kilos> hi Squirm 
[09:26] <Kilos> sharks lost
[09:26] <Kilos> ai!
[09:51] <Squirm> :/
[09:51] <Squirm> score?
[10:34] <Cantide> has anyone succeeded in running 13.04 in virtualbox?
[10:34] <Cantide> i think it just doesn't like my hardware :'(
[10:41] <Squirm> :P
[10:41] <Squirm> I never knew it had been released tbh
[10:41] <Squirm> last night?
[10:48] <Cantide> I think Thursday
[10:55] <Cantide> not working in VirtualBox for me though
[10:55] <Cantide> so i won't try to install it
[11:08] <Kilos> hmm...
[13:44] <trender> hello people
[13:44] <trender> anybody know how to get around the windows login ?
[13:45] <trender> i bought a laptop covered in blood and i cant log into windows with the okes fingerprint
[13:45] <trender> without fingerprint
[13:48] <Cantide> ..
[13:48] <Cantide> which version of windows?
[13:48] <Cantide> check out Hiren's Boot CD
[14:52] <Kilos> afternoon all
[15:21] <Kilos> ohi superfly 
[15:31] <superfly> hi Kilos
[15:48] <magespawn> evening
[15:50] <magespawn> superfly ping
[15:56] <superfly> magespawn: pong
[15:58] <magespawn> superfly did you see trender's question?
[16:00] <Kilos> hi magespawn 
[16:01] <magespawn> hey Kilos
[16:02] <Kilos> tried 13.04 here today, much too slow, will move to later ubuntu when got a faster pc
[16:03] <magespawn> maybe it will speed up later
[16:06] <magespawn> might also not be working the best with the older hardware
[16:12] <Kilos> ya i think its the hardware
[16:13] <Kilos> everything worked but oh so slow and the fading in and out of windows slows it even more
[16:18] <magespawn>  i had to turn off all the effects in kde on my lappy, otherwise it slows to a crawl
[16:24] <superfly> magespawn: my solution to any windows problem is a linux live cd
[16:25] <magespawn> was wondering about the blood part of it actually
[16:26] <superfly> magespawn: saliva
[16:27] <magespawn> now i am lost
[16:37] <superfly> magespawn: saliva is the best thing to use to clean blood
[16:38]  * superfly resists making a really sick joke
[16:41] <magespawn> okay then
[16:53] <magespawn> i will let that one go then
[16:57] <inetpro> Kilos: check the privacy option in the settings
[16:59] <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
[17:00] <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
[17:01] <inetpro> if you have a slow connection it has a significant impact on performance
[17:02] <inetpro> it's actually so bad that I fail to understand why they have it on by default
[17:11]  * 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
[17:12] <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
[17:13] <Symmetria> http://valhalla.clue.be/~vort/girlie4.jpg <[17:13] <Symmetria> (yes its huge, but that photo, its worth the resolution) ;p
[17:13]  * inetpro wbb
[17:32]  * Squirm looks at Symmetria 
[17:32] <Squirm> how much did you pay her?
[17:33] <Squirm> just to be there in the first place, let alone like taht
[17:34] <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
[17:35] <Symmetria> ;p you gotta admit, she's hot as hell
[17:36] <Squirm> I didn't want to give you that, but yes she is
[17:37] <Squirm> I see how this works
[17:37] <Squirm> you bought her plane ticket to force the being in the same country part
[17:45] <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
[18:10] <superfly> meh. I've dated prettier women in my life.
[18:57] <inetpro> Kilos: did you disable the privacy stuff?
[18:57] <inetpro> Maaz: coffee on
[18:57]  * Maaz puts the kettle on
[18:58] <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
[18:59] <Kilos> now i wanna try keep this untiy working
[18:59] <Kilos> and the support goes way past 13.04"s
[19:00] <inetpro> why would it stop working?
[19:00] <Kilos> well you know what QA says it isnt her that breaks things
[19:01] <Maaz> Coffee's ready for inetpro and Kilos!
[19:02] <Kilos> Maaz, danke
[19:02] <Maaz> Bitteschön
[19:02] <inetpro> Maaz: dankie
[19:02] <Maaz> Groot plesier inetpro my vriend
[19:04] <inetpro> Kilos: so you gonna stay awake till 23:00 again?
[19:07] <Kilos> what for this time inetpro ?
[19:07] <Kilos> i love wget
[19:08] <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?
[19:09] <Kilos> 13.04 will be better if one can stop windows fading like that
[19:09] <Kilos> thats all resources working hard
[19:10] <Kilos> but head too sore to stay up tonight again
[19:11] <Kilos> but only hurts when i breathe
[19:12] <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!
[19:13] <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
[19:14] <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
[19:15] <Kilos> im telling you my downloads show in kB/s
[19:15] <Kilos> not kb/s
[19:16] <inetpro> wel 200kB/s = 1.6mbps
[19:16] <inetpro> 4/5
[19:16] <inetpro> oops
[19:17] <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
[19:18] <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
[19:19] <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
[19:20] <inetpro> in other words: 1024kB / 5 seconds = 204.8kBps
[19:20] <Kilos> thats it
[19:21] <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
[19:22] <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
[19:23] <Kilos> well they gonna have to check first
[19:23] <Kilos> i got no say over repos
[19:24] <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
[19:25] <inetpro> tell them
[19:25] <Kilos> is there a better speed test than speedtest.com
[19:25] <Kilos> that shows 128 kB/s
[19:26] <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
[19:27] <Kilos> night guys. sleep tight
[19:27] <inetpro> Kilos: that would be 1mbps
[19:27] <inetpro> nag oom
[19:27] <Kilos> lekker slaap
[19:27]  * inetpro goes to get the real coffee
