| somaunn | Hi everyone | 10:27 |
| HawkiesZA_ | Hi somaunn | 10:28 |
| somaunn | HawkiesZA_, Hows life here ? | 10:29 |
| HawkiesZA_ | Define here? | 10:29 |
| somaunn | HawkiesZA_, this channel | 10:35 |
| HawkiesZA_ | aha. It's generally pretty quiet. Kilos can get quite chatty though ;) | 10:38 |
| Kilos | haha | 10:38 |
| HawkiesZA_ | Howzit going Kilos? | 10:40 |
| Kilos | good ty and you HawkiesZA_ | 10:41 |
| Kilos | i chatted to the fly and he said he will tell you what needs working on in the ibid greeter script | 10:42 |
| HawkiesZA_ | Pretty good too. Sunny skies and <holds thumbs> passing code tests | 10:42 |
| Kilos | good luck | 10:43 |
| HawkiesZA_ | Ah, excellent. He's been sick the past couple of days, hopefully he gets better soon | 10:43 |
| Kilos | eish poor man | 10:43 |
| Kilos | hi Cantide | 10:48 |
| Cantide | hello :) | 10:48 |
| Kilos | wassup somaunn | 10:48 |
| charl | good afternoon | 11:43 |
| Kilos | lo charl | 11:44 |
| charl | hi Kilos | 11:44 |
| charl | how's it going | 11:44 |
| Kilos | good ty and you? | 11:44 |
| charl | i'm doing well thanks | 11:44 |
| charl | i just saw something strange, i was looking at this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 11:45 |
| charl | ubuntu 12.10 reaches EoL april 2014 | 11:45 |
| charl | but ubuntu 13.04 reaches EoL january 2014?? | 11:46 |
| charl | that's very strange to me | 11:46 |
| Kilos | ya they shortened support time | 11:46 |
| charl | ah i see | 11:46 |
| Kilos | only LTS will get the long support | 11:46 |
| Kilos | and only LTS dvds will be supplied | 11:47 |
| charl | i think that is quite logical because cds are no longer being used much anyway | 11:47 |
| Cantide | yeah, and shorter support time frees them up for other things | 11:48 |
| Kilos | ya | 11:48 |
| charl | yeah it sounds logical to me as well | 11:48 |
| Cantide | those needing stability and support should only use LTS versions | 11:48 |
| Cantide | those wanted to test new features can try the versions in between | 11:48 |
| charl | was just surprised to see that 12.10 is supported until after 13.04 | 11:48 |
| * Cantide is waiting for 14.04 :) | 11:48 | |
| charl | i installed 13.04 on my laptop, but my lenovo laptop is very easy to keep up to date | 11:49 |
| Cantide | what do you think of 13.04 | 11:50 |
| Cantide | i've downloaded the iso, but not yet been able to run it | 11:50 |
| charl | i still have 12.10 on my desktop at work, i actually wanted to install 12.04 but i had trouble getting it to boot | 11:50 |
| charl | i have a dell optiplex 9010 which comes with a uefi boot manager | 11:51 |
| Cantide | ah | 11:51 |
| charl | i run vmware so i am careful of just upgrading my work machine to a newer version of the linux kernel | 11:52 |
| Cantide | uefi :'( | 11:52 |
| charl | first need to make sure it is supported, if memory serves correctly my laptop is now running 3.7 but my desktop is still running 3.5 | 11:53 |
| charl | but as far as 13.04 is concerned, i run kubuntu and have noticed very few differences | 11:54 |
| charl | just a general upgrade of all the software | 11:54 |
| charl | which is nice, in some small ways | 11:54 |
| charl | on a different note, does anyone here run an xmpp server? | 12:05 |
| charl | a xmpp, dunno | 12:05 |
| Cantide | an seems best there :p | 12:08 |
| * Cantide doesn't | 12:08 | |
| Cantide | yeah, i think a lot of the changes in 13.04 were in unity | 12:08 |
| somaunn | Hi | 12:24 |
| charl | hi somaunn | 12:28 |
| somaunn | Hi charl | 12:29 |
| somaunn | any one tested ubuntu 13.04 or kubuntu 13.04 ? | 12:33 |
| charl | me for one | 12:35 |
| charl | i run kubuntu 13.04 on my laptop | 12:35 |
| somaunn | good | 12:36 |
| charl | i'm sure ubuntu would be well-tested by a number of people before it is released though, what specifically did you want to know? | 12:36 |
| somaunn | i'm actually runing both ubuntu & kubuntu 13.04 | 12:36 |
| charl | oh good | 12:37 |
| charl | you can run the two together, you just need to have both the ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop packages installed | 12:37 |
| charl | then you can select which desktop environment you want to use when you login | 12:37 |
| charl | most login managers have an option to select the environment | 12:38 |
| somaunn | that's right | 12:38 |
| somaunn | but i've actually installed ubuntu on my Desktop and kubuntu on my laptop | 12:38 |
| charl | display managers i mean | 12:38 |
| charl | same here, although i am still running ubuntu 12.10 on my desktop | 12:39 |
| somaunn | despite the graphic card i'm using is not a pro card but things are okay | 12:42 |
| charl | i use intel hd graphics cards on both my desktop and laptop | 12:42 |
| charl | you don't need a fancy graphics card just to run a desktop these days | 12:43 |
| charl | wow got jabberd2 talking across ipv6, nice | 13:05 |
| charl | just had to uncomment a setting | 13:05 |
| charl | ciao | 14:00 |

| Squirm | i'm sitting on 4.0.4 | 15:03 |
| inetpro | Cantide, Kilos, superfly_ (with tail and all): seems to me it is a vervet after all | 15:28 |
| Kilos | ah | 15:28 |
| inetpro | similar to the one in Symmetria's photo above | 15:28 |
| Kilos | did you see it now | 15:28 |
| inetpro | Kilos: no not yet | 15:29 |
| Kilos | eish thats a clever one | 15:29 |
| Kilos | knows the gardener isnt a threat | 15:29 |
| inetpro | but got much better description from the gardener and the neighbors gardener | 15:29 |
| Cantide | hey inetpro :) | 15:29 |
| Kilos | tomorrow hell be back | 15:30 |
| Cantide | judging by superfly_'s tail, it could be him 'o' | 15:30 |
| inetpro | Kilos: even on the neighbor's he has stolen about 5 chickens already | 15:36 |
| Kilos | wow | 15:37 |
| Kilos | you sure its only one | 15:37 |
| Kilos | send the neighbour for sleeping pills | 15:37 |
| Kilos | hehe | 15:37 |
| inetpro | good question, but I doubt there are more | 15:37 |
| Kilos | oh they dont live in tribes like those down near durbs | 15:38 |
| Kilos | those with the blue nuts | 15:38 |
| inetpro | what he does is he does his catching and takes the chicken up in the tree... have a photo of a chicken that he left behind high in one of my trees | 15:39 |
| Kilos | wow | 15:39 |
| Kilos | so he will eat dead ones too thatys good | 15:39 |
| inetpro | will see whether he comes back for this one | 15:40 |
| inetpro | Kilos: see https://www.dropbox.com/sc/50mxt6re5br6wap/Cp8ipwWVEG | 15:42 |
| inetpro | have some late mealies and he loves that as well | 15:44 |
| Kilos | swine | 15:44 |
| Kilos | they not gonna make it i think, winter too close | 15:44 |
| inetpro | in fact in one of those photos he has a nice hiding place where you can see the feathers on the ground | 15:44 |
| Kilos | that site took long to open | 15:44 |
| Kilos | my 8ta is bad | 15:45 |
| Kilos | grrr | 15:45 |
| inetpro | ai! | 15:45 |
| Kilos | fone again tomorrow | 15:45 |
| Kilos | never mind they can be sorted. just gotta find the CEO's mail addy | 15:48 |
| Kilos | you cant ask them on the fone they bang the waves come down from the top | 15:48 |
| Kilos | did you get your iso jmagunduni | 15:52 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 15:57 |
| Trixar_za | Yeah, me too | 16:01 |
| Trixar_za | I think it's the whole network | 16:01 |
| Kilos | ohi Trixar_za | 16:02 |
| Kilos | mine is terrible. luckily no large upgrades | 16:02 |
| Trixar_za | It loads websites slowly | 16:02 |
| Kilos | yeah terrible | 16:02 |
| Trixar_za | And stuff lag. IRC seems fine though | 16:02 |
| Trixar_za | Whatsapp cuts out every now and again | 16:03 |
| Kilos | yeah and mxit | 16:03 |
| inetpro | Kilos: you really need a modem with an antenna for a stable connection | 16:04 |
| Kilos | no man i can see the tower from here | 16:05 |
| Kilos | not even one k away | 16:05 |
| inetpro | ai! | 16:05 |
| Kilos | straight out my window from here i see the light on it now | 16:06 |
| inetpro | Kilos: have you tried moving your PC and phone to a different spot in the house? | 16:07 |
| inetpro | sjoe, you even have direct line of sight? | 16:07 |
| Kilos | fone shows full connection anywhere in the area | 16:07 |
| Kilos | yessir | 16:07 |
| inetpro | hmm... | 16:07 |
| Kilos | i see the red light on top | 16:07 |
| Kilos | its just the data thing thats sick | 16:08 |
| inetpro | maybe they moved the direction of the antenna on the tower | 16:08 |
| Kilos | they are omni drectional | 16:08 |
| inetpro | ai! | 16:08 |
| Kilos | arent they not directional | 16:08 |
| inetpro | guess it depends | 16:08 |
| Kilos | will just keep foning | 16:09 |
| inetpro | do it | 16:09 |
| Kilos | it was good so they cant blame anything else but their own equipment | 16:09 |
| Kilos | nm shows at times the signal drops to 1 bar then i get 1.6kB/s download speed | 16:10 |
| Kilos | grrr | 16:10 |
| Kilos | thats slower than gprs | 16:11 |
| Trixar_za | And for me it's slow if I use my 3G dongle or my phone | 16:12 |
| Trixar_za | So it's not so much the hardware as the service provider | 16:13 |
| Kilos | Trixar_za, inetpro see if you guys can find the CEO's mail addy | 16:13 |
| Kilos | ya its them | 16:13 |
| Kilos | his name is Sipho Maseko the new Telkom CEO | 16:14 |
| Kilos | but i cant get a mail addy for him | 16:14 |
| Trixar_za | And he comes straight from Vodacom | 16:14 |
| Kilos | yip thats where our prob lies methinks | 16:14 |
| Kilos | one site with lotsa comments doesnt talk well of him | 16:15 |
| Kilos | maybe hes on twitter too | 16:16 |
| Kilos | Maaz, google Sipho Maseko on twitter | 16:16 |
| Maaz | Kilos: "Sipho Maseko (osmaseko) on Twitter" https://twitter.com/osmaseko :: "Twitter / mbulivuyo: Sipho Maseko's been appointed ..." https://twitter.com/mbulivuyo/status/318215316033372160 :: "Telkom Gets Ex-Vodacom South Africa Head Sipho Maseko as CEO ..." http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-03-28/telkom-names-ex-vodacom-south-africa-head-sipho-maseko-as-ceo.html | 16:16 |

| Kilos | hehe | 16:17 |
| Kilos | osmaseko | 16:17 |
| Kilos | inetpro, is the tweet guy | 16:17 |
| Kilos | or ill use @ubuntuza to tweet him | 16:18 |
| inetpro | yikes! | 16:18 |
| Kilos | haha | 16:18 |
| Kilos | i knew that would get a reaction | 16:18 |
| Kilos | pity we so small though | 16:19 |
| Kilos | if we had 1000 followers he would skrik | 16:19 |
| inetpro | wow | 16:22 |
| inetpro | Telkom’s market capitalisation is 23 times smaller than Vodacom’s | 16:22 |
| Kilos | what does that mean? | 16:23 |
| Kilos | only mobile or total | 16:24 |
| === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za | ||
| inetpro | Kilos: good question, I don't know actually. That comes from http://www.bdlive.co.za/business/technology/2013/03/28/telkom-appoints-maseko-as-ceo | 16:48 |
| === superfly_ is now known as superfly | ||
| Kilos | hi superfly magespawn | 17:12 |
| superfly | hi Kilos | 17:12 |
| magespawn | evening Kilos superfly | 17:14 |
| superfly | hi magespawn | 17:14 |
| Kilos | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vervet_monkey | 17:19 |
| Kilos | haha inetpro start putting out booze for him and maybe you can catch him when he falls out the tree drunk | 17:20 |
| Kilos | im sure that the same type of monkey full up on the natal coast | 17:23 |
| Kilos | magespawn, whats news on the wgetting | 17:43 |
| magespawn | have not tried the iso yet, been a bit busy | 17:50 |
| Kilos | ah | 17:51 |
| magespawn | the network at the hotel is still not behaving properly | 17:52 |
| Kilos | ai! | 17:54 |
| magespawn | yup they have sent a guy from the head office, who is as stumped as me | 17:56 |
| Kilos | oh my. it must be fixable though | 17:58 |
| magespawn | i am sure it is, but we can't find what is causing the problem, so back in the trenches tomorrow | 18:02 |
| Kilos | take lotsa cable and replace one section at a time maybe | 18:03 |
| magespawn | we might end up doing that | 18:09 |
| Kilos | you have already kinda localised the bad area so it shouldnt be too much graft | 18:12 |
| magespawn | thats the thing, we are not really sure about anything | 18:15 |
| Kilos | oh my | 18:19 |
| Kilos | i thought the sections you disconnected were the prob ones | 18:19 |
| magespawn | the network loses it's internet connection every now and then, unplugging and replugging the router brings it back online | 18:28 |
| Kilos | oh not the same prob from months ago | 18:29 |
| magespawn | no but possibly related | 18:30 |
| magespawn | going to set up various pc to see if i can monitor the network | 18:30 |
| Kilos | you tried another router hey? | 18:30 |
| Kilos | i dont member so far back | 18:31 |
| magespawn | yup but al least one was fried by eskom/lightening, and another was definately faulty | 18:33 |
| Kilos | eish | 18:34 |
| Kilos | maybe the lines are cooked as well | 18:34 |
| Kilos | but that should only be from router out | 18:38 |
| Kilos | to the net | 18:38 |
| magespawn | might be an isp problem, but there is a big problem somewhere | 18:38 |
| Kilos | whew good luck | 18:39 |
| magespawn | i am sure we will get there | 18:44 |
| Kilos | yeah must be | 18:45 |
| magespawn | going to be fun finding it | 18:55 |
| Kilos | yeah | 18:58 |
| Kilos | learn lots | 18:58 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:01 |
| magespawn | anybody know about this http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/05/spyware-used-by-governments-poses-as-firefox-and-mozilla-is-angry/ | 19:07 |
