=== Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [05:49] morning all === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za [06:31] hi Trixar_za [06:32] Hey Kilos [06:59] Trixar_za: you busy [06:59] Why do you ask? [07:00] need a brain to try get something or explain how to get it [07:00] from a closed down business [07:00] Ok? [07:01] http://web.archive.org/web/20081120051004/http://www.quadmicroworks.com/support/downloads/diskimage.html [07:01] need that image [07:02] image comes from waybackmachine when this company was still in business [07:17] 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] common deduction [07:18] i have some korean contacts who claim to have this image [07:19] the product develloper claims to have the image [07:19] but these okes are in no hurry to supply it [07:20] and without this image the 100 boxes i have are just 100 bricks :) [07:20] or 100 lunchboxes [07:21] ty Trixar_za [07:22] Yeah, I saw the one korean site that supplies the newer images [07:22] But only for two versions of SquareOne devices [07:23] yes this box is sq101 those are all sq201 [07:23] different images for different box [07:23] what do they say about upgrading the boxes you have? [07:24] the box is 7 years old mate just making it work again is a challenge :) [07:24] hehe [07:24] nobody will spend time upgrading it [07:25] i mean if asking them if its possible to upgrade those you have [07:25] as in will they supply whats needed [07:25] off course its possible [07:25] but first you need to understand how the box deals with an image file [07:26] its possible to compile a new image from many linux apps to armv4 [07:27] id just be happy to get it working as it was before [07:27] im not interested in building an online coke vending machine [07:28] i know the box has potential [07:28] Well, you could try something crazy and see if something like Testdisk can recover the image [07:29] i dont have the original disk mate [07:29] i fitted my own disk [07:29] testdisk is a forensic data recovery tool [07:29] linux tool [07:30] can it recover an image that was never on the box ? [07:30] :) [07:30] Unlikely [07:30] :P [07:30] can you connect an external dvdrom to them [07:30] nope [07:30] nope [07:31] it only has telnet ftp and admin web support [07:31] so they first sell the boxes and then you only got the image? [07:31] it has no screen or external interfaces [07:31] thats doff [07:32] the image was supposed to be downloaded from website or shipped with a disk [07:32] aha [07:33] you would think at least they have the blerry courtesy to send the image on cd [07:33] yeah [07:34] arg but like i said this is a project hobby [07:34] i take on high risk projects to make big coins [07:34] this project will yield 1/2 bar when im done with it [07:35] or mabee 1bar if i take it to the limit [07:37] drf [07:37] hi blak_rob [07:38] welcome to ubuntu-za [07:38] sup kilos [07:38] thank you [07:38] tell us about yourself [07:39] gonna watch the sharks [07:39] you are an old irc guy i see [07:39] nahh fuck that. I aint tellin u shit [07:40] took me three years before i got masked [07:40] ai! === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [07:41] we dont swear on this channel. we have ladies present [07:42] no shit! === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za [07:50] hope he stays away [07:50] chatmosphere rubbis [07:50] rubbish [07:55] that was nice === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [08:36] Trix[a]r_za whats that irc server you running there mate ??

[10:34] has anyone succeeded in running 13.04 in virtualbox? [10:34] i think it just doesn't like my hardware :'( [10:41] :P [10:41] I never knew it had been released tbh [10:41] last night? [10:48] I think Thursday [10:55] not working in VirtualBox for me though [10:55] so i won't try to install it [11:08] hmm... [13:44] hello people [13:44] anybody know how to get around the windows login ? [13:45] i bought a laptop covered in blood and i cant log into windows with the okes fingerprint [13:45] without fingerprint [13:48] .. [13:48] which version of windows? [13:48] check out Hiren's Boot CD [14:52] afternoon all [15:21] ohi superfly [15:31] hi Kilos [15:48] evening [15:50] superfly ping [15:56] magespawn: pong [15:58] superfly did you see trender's question? [16:00] hi magespawn [16:01] hey Kilos [16:02] tried 13.04 here today, much too slow, will move to later ubuntu when got a faster pc [16:03] maybe it will speed up later [16:06] might also not be working the best with the older hardware [16:12] ya i think its the hardware [16:13] everything worked but oh so slow and the fading in and out of windows slows it even more [16:18] i had to turn off all the effects in kde on my lappy, otherwise it slows to a crawl [16:24] magespawn: my solution to any windows problem is a linux live cd [16:25] was wondering about the blood part of it actually [16:26] magespawn: saliva [16:27] now i am lost [16:37] magespawn: saliva is the best thing to use to clean blood [16:38] * superfly resists making a really sick joke [16:41] okay then [16:53] i will let that one go then [16:57] Kilos: check the privacy option in the settings [16:59] 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] aw does that speed it up inetpro ? ive already put 12.04 back [17:00] Dash searching reaches out to online providers every time you type anything in the dash [17:01] if you have a slow connection it has a significant impact on performance [17:02] 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] does everyone else see the topic when I do that? [17:11] heh if you're not opped [17:11] nope [17:11] it wouldnt change it [17:12] 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] Symmetria: so I have to copy and paste in order to show the topic to users?
