* magespawn is playing hunt the driver for a zte mf190 modem on vista today | 06:46 | |
Kilos | eek | 06:47 |
theblazehen | Hunt the driver? | 06:47 |
Kilos | it should install when plugged in | 06:47 |
theblazehen | Nvm | 06:48 |
magespawn | it should, but does not | 06:48 |
Kilos | its most likely locked to some other isp | 06:48 |
Kilos | plug it into a ubuntu machine and use modem-manager-gui to see | 06:49 |
magespawn | seems to work fine there and on my win7 machine | 06:50 |
Kilos | oh my | 06:50 |
Kilos | try differnt usb sockets | 06:50 |
Vince-0 | haai owens | 06:51 |
magespawn | the funny thing is the connection manager on the modem installs fine, and you explore the modem but it does not install drivers | 06:52 |
Kilos | hi Vince-0 | 06:52 |
magespawn | hey Vince-0 | 06:52 |
Kilos | maybe some other one is already installed | 06:52 |
Kilos | check whats installed already and remove it | 06:53 |

Kilos | inetpro, ping | 09:51 |
Kilos | ah birdie methinks | 09:53 |

magespawn | that was it Kilos | 10:06 |
Kilos | the ubuntuza site need meeting news | 10:07 |
magespawn | changed from pidgin because of Twitter stopping the version 1 api | 10:07 |
Kilos | ya | 10:08 |
Kilos | birdie is the only thing i got working apart from actually going online to twitter | 10:08 |
Kilos | but i put my info in it not the ubuntuza one | 10:08 |
Kilos | only client that still works to twitter is birdie i think | 10:09 |
Kilos | stupid twits | 10:09 |
Kilos | why block clients getting in | 10:10 |
Kilos | thier loss i spose | 10:15 |
Kilos | their\ | 10:15 |
Kilos | superfly, quinces pawpaws kumquats and guavas | 10:22 |
magespawn | lots of work maintaining different versions of the api, not all the versions compatible | 10:24 |
magespawn | Kilos I found the solution to the modem here http://is.gd/Mkd1kw | 10:25 |
superfly | Kilos: good job | 10:30 |
Kilos | so easy hey magespawn | 10:34 |
magespawn | but a very strange solution | 10:34 |
Kilos | yeah | 10:35 |
Kilos | sucks does funny things | 10:36 |
magespawn | superfly i cannot see where to edit the ubuntu-za page so that the meetings time is correct | 10:41 |
magespawn | any help? | 10:41 |
superfly | magespawn: down the side? | 10:44 |
magespawn | yup that is the one | 10:45 |
superfly | magespawn: that's in Google Calendar somewhere | 11:46 |
magespawn | ahh okay will see if i can find something ty superfly | 12:06 |
superfly | magespawn: let me see | 12:07 |
superfly | what time is the meeting tonight? | 12:07 |
magespawn | 19:30 | 12:08 |
superfly | meh. I don't have write access. | 12:09 |
Kilos | wbb pc cleaning time | 12:12 |
Kilos | hold thumbs | 12:12 |
magespawn | superfly maybe inetpro? | 12:14 |
superfly | maybe | 12:15 |
magespawn | i was not aware that joomla and wordpress are programming languages ? http://itjobs.mybroadband.co.za/jobs/webmultimedia-designer-2/ | 12:33 |
Kilos | oh well lets see what stops working | 12:39 |
magespawn | wb Kilos | 12:40 |
Kilos | ty magespawn | 12:45 |
magespawn | what have you changed? | 12:45 |
Kilos | just blew it clean and added the outside cover with fan on | 12:46 |
Kilos | but this is the dicey power socket that used to switch off on its own member | 12:46 |
magespawn | ah right, looking good so far then | 12:49 |
Kilos | yip | 12:51 |
Kilos | hi N8Wulf | 12:51 |
N8Wulf | Mr Kilos!!! How you my man? | 12:52 |
Kilos | good ty and you? | 12:52 |
N8Wulf | very well thanx... busy sorting HDDs... wanna build a Media server this week if all goes well | 12:56 |
theblazehen | N8Wulf: What are you goint to run on? MiniDLNA? | 12:57 |
Kilos | nice | 12:58 |
N8Wulf | ow eish... Ubuntu and some server addOn I discovered a while back, cant remember the name right now. Webadmin like, but includes P&P support for HDDs as well as merging the HDDs into a single volume | 13:00 |
N8Wulf | will look up MiniDLNA | 13:00 |
charl | magespawn: that's really dumb, they scare off potential employees just by that nonsense | 13:25 |
charl | talking about mybb, i saw something else equally dumb | 13:26 |
charl | http://mybroadband.co.za/news/broadband/77656-good-news-for-internet-speeds-in-south-africa.html | 13:26 |
charl | the title sounds positive, until you read further down: | 13:27 |
charl | "âAt 2.1 Mbps, including a quarterly decline of less than 1%, South Africa continued to have the lowest average connection speed among the surveyed EMEA countries,â the report stated." | 13:27 |
magespawn | charl: sometimes i think the recruitment agency/department could do with a little help in the wording of the adverts | 13:29 |
magespawn | i have just seen another where i think superman would not be able to get the job | 13:30 |
magespawn | at least according to the discription | 13:30 |
charl | yeah i know those | 13:31 |
charl | i once got an advertisement from a cape-town based agency looking for a person that can write "bug free code" | 13:31 |
magespawn | so the perfect programmer then | 13:31 |
charl | if even google, microsoft and the likes can't find people who can write bug-free code, i wonder how these people think they can get them | 13:31 |
charl | how's that for demonstrating unrealistic expectations ? | 13:32 |
magespawn | just a bit | 13:32 |
magespawn | a bit like this one http://www.pnet.co.za/index.php?s=advert_view&g=4930&x=1900692&i=733&pop=1 | 13:32 |
charl | now you know if you take a job like that, doesn't matter how good you are, they will always be dissatisfied with your labour | 13:32 |
magespawn | yup at least that above link they are prepared to pay, some do not even want to do that | 13:33 |
charl | hold on, they want a network administrator who is going to do development? | 13:34 |
magespawn | yup | 13:34 |
charl | who are they kidding | 13:34 |
charl | you can't possibly specialise on all that | 13:35 |
magespawn | i am sort of heading in that direction, but not there yet | 13:35 |
charl | that sounds too rough though, too many different technologies | 13:36 |
charl | sounds like a minimum of two separate jobs | 13:36 |
magespawn | i can do most of the networking they want, but i am only just learning to program | 13:36 |
charl | but hold on, it gets worse | 13:36 |
charl | most of the skills listed at the top have nothing to do with networking | 13:36 |
charl | they are server/application administration | 13:37 |
charl | basically they are looking for an it-all-rounder, not a network administrator | 13:37 |
magespawn | yup so then server admin plus networking with development | 13:38 |
charl | yeah, i don't know what the going rates are in .za but 25-30K sound a bit low for that | 13:38 |
magespawn | maybe you would have to clean the toilets, make the coffee and drive the ceo around too | 13:38 |
charl | yeah | 13:38 |
charl | let me put it this way, even if you have all the necessary credentials, you would fast be burned out or over-stressed | 13:39 |
Kilos | hmm china wins the supercomputer war | 13:39 |
Kilos | 50+ petaflops | 13:40 |
charl | with most of their people still living in poverty yes | 13:40 |
charl | sounds a bit like the new russia - first man in space while people are dying of hunger on the ground | 13:41 |
Kilos | http://goparallel.sourceforge.net/budget-supercomputers-for-every-business/ | 13:44 |
Kilos | hi psychicist | 13:44 |

Kilos | kinda chaotic tonight | 17:47 |
nuvolari | kbmonkey: link to the dbn-lug topic re. SFD: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/dbnlug/txR4bWPn5wo/discussion | 17:48 |
kbmonkey | okay let's get this on | 17:48 |
kbmonkey | Maaz, topic Review previous minutes | 17:48 |
Maaz | Current Topic: Review previous minutes | 17:48 |
kbmonkey | So I was tasked to update the team reports | 17:48 |
kbmonkey | that did not happen, I am sad to say. I was not too sure on content to include. | 17:49 |
kbmonkey | I need to help source some events or happenings to write about | 17:49 |
nuvolari | *cough* nlsthzn halp? ^^ | 17:49 |
nlsthzn | *yawn* | 17:49 |
Kilos | hehe | 17:50 |
Kilos | when i doubt ask! | 17:50 |
Kilos | in | 17:50 |
Vince-0 | Dnblug hangout this Thursday at 8pm | 17:50 |
nlsthzn | like I asked last time.. we need some central place to record the stuff, like a google doc | 17:50 |
nlsthzn | then it is easy for who ever to update | 17:50 |
kbmonkey | fine. Thanks Vince-0, noted in events! | 17:50 |
nlsthzn | I had the same issue finding what who did and where they recorded it | 17:51 |
nuvolari | or did not record it | 17:51 |
Vince-0 | Don't have link right now, notes are under construction | 17:51 |
nlsthzn | nuvolari, yup, what I did once was to blog it myself and link an ubuntu hour for record keeping | 17:52 |
kbmonkey | nlsthzn, you dealt with this before. you know the problem is not collating the data, but getting it in the first place. | 17:52 |
nlsthzn | kbmonkey, exactly | 17:52 |
nuvolari | solution: we should just google+-event it :P | 17:53 |
nlsthzn | might work but not all use google products | 17:53 |
nuvolari | with a hangout | 17:53 |
nlsthzn | lol | 17:53 |
nuvolari | then have digital references to go back to in the form of a video :P | 17:53 |
kbmonkey | I vote for that, there is bound to be one person with G+ access | 17:54 |
kbmonkey | any way we can link it to the ubuntu-za group / page / tag to find it later? | 17:54 |
nuvolari | I'm shocked that there are people out there that 'don't want to' use google products | 17:54 |
Vince-0 | Google is now a necessary evil | 17:55 |
nlsthzn | NSA approives | 17:55 |
nlsthzn | *aaproves | 17:55 |
nlsthzn | *approvesdd | 17:55 |
nlsthzn | *approves | 17:55 |
kbmonkey | there is a ubuntu-za google group. who admins that? | 17:55 |
nuvolari | ok, it might be something nice for once in a while to have a hangout for Ubuntu-ZA | 17:55 |
Kilos | inetpro, methinks kbmonkey | 17:55 |
nuvolari | but IRC still reigns king | 17:56 |
magespawn | howdy all | 17:56 |
Cantide | hi magespawn | 17:56 |

Maaz | Agreed: track events on G+ via the Ubuntu-ZA community at https://plus.google.com/communities/117322247779910275992 | 17:57 |
kbmonkey | lets see how it goes using that... | 17:58 |
kbmonkey | we are on Admin right now, move to Events? | 17:58 |
nuvolari | +1 | 17:58 |
kbmonkey | Maaz, topic Events | 17:59 |
Maaz | Current Topic: Events | 17:59 |
nuvolari | I'm not aware of any events, but then again I'm quite disconnected :P | 17:59 |
kbmonkey | okay, Dnblug hangout this Thursday at 8pm. Vince will post the details on this to the lists for us | 18:00 |
kbmonkey | our meet up with the fly was pretty nice, there was no geekery with hardware though | 18:01 |
Kilos | hehe | 18:01 |
Cantide | kbmonkey, i missed that :'( | 18:01 |
magespawn | like ways up here when he did his handbrake turn in hluhluwe | 18:02 |
Cantide | lol | 18:02 |
nuvolari | lol! | 18:02 |
kbmonkey | now that is news worthy :) | 18:02 |
nuvolari | the most action hluhluwe seen in a year | 18:03 |
Kilos | hehe | 18:03 |
kbmonkey | okay so it seems pretty quiet then | 18:03 |
magespawn | in the geek/ubuntu-za/linux area for sure | 18:03 |
kbmonkey | dang nabbit | 18:04 |
kbmonkey | not much of a gamer, but anyone keen for a meetup to play a supertuxkart tourney? | 18:05 |
Vince-0 | Yar! Maybe an fps | 18:05 |
Cantide | i bought the humble indie bundle 8 a few weeks ago :) some nice games there - and on Linux, too :) | 18:06 |
kbmonkey | sure if it runs on my lappie | 18:06 |
nlsthzn | kbmonkey, bring it on my tux kart rocks | 18:06 |
nuvolari | ack, would you guys and ladies excuse me early please? | 18:06 |
Kilos | yip nuvolari ty for coming in | 18:07 |
nuvolari | sorry for being inconvenient :-/ | 18:07 |
kbmonkey | okay then we have a task: discuss some possible game tourneys. I feel too serious and don't play enough. I bet many others feel the same ;) | 18:07 |
Kilos | life happens | 18:07 |
kbmonkey | sure nuvolari, thanks for joining | 18:07 |
kbmonkey | in fact, this is our last topic, there are no more after this | 18:07 |
nuvolari | cheers everyone, have a nice evening, thanks for the meeting so far :) | 18:07 |
Kilos | cheers nuvolari | 18:07 |
Kilos | study hard | 18:08 |
kbmonkey | Vince-0, I was thinking STK as you can play on the same machine with usb gamepads. so it can happen at a coffee shoppe or the like. | 18:08 |
kbmonkey | I realize getting a venue is sometimes troublesome | 18:09 |
Vince-0 | Can use my office, nice broadband | 18:09 |
kbmonkey | study hard meneer | 18:09 |
kbmonkey | that would rock 'n roll Vince-0 :) | 18:10 |
Cantide | :) | 18:10 |
Cantide | where is this? haha | 18:10 |
kbmonkey | something to think about indeed | 18:11 |
kbmonkey | okay for the rest do you have event related info to add? | 18:11 |
* Cantide recommends humble indie bundles | 18:11 | |
kbmonkey | those are great Cantide | 18:12 |
Cantide | yes, yes they are | 18:12 |
kbmonkey | okay before we get off topic, can I close off this one? | 18:13 |
Cantide | yes from me, not sure about others | 18:13 |
Squirm | Maaz: I am Sinjin Swanepoel | 18:13 |
Maaz | Squirm: Yessir | 18:13 |
Kilos | yes | 18:13 |
magespawn | i am good | 18:13 |
kbmonkey | A reminder that the mailing list is still primary means of discussing events. | 18:13 |
Kilos | hehe wb Squirm | 18:13 |
kbmonkey | for those of us who even read our emails... *looks guilty* | 18:14 |
Kilos | and here man | 18:14 |
Squirm | yeah :/ | 18:14 |
nlsthzn | google spam detector munches 90% of mails from the list | 18:14 |
Kilos | lol | 18:14 |
Cantide | oh, i still seem to get a lot of them | 18:14 |
magespawn | add the list email | 18:14 |
kbmonkey | add the mailing list address to your contacts | 18:14 |
kbmonkey | anyway, I want to thank everyone here for joining. It was interesting. | 18:15 |
Cantide | yes, that's probably what i did and i have forgotten | 18:15 |
Cantide | oh, i have something to add | 18:15 |
Cantide | to the meeting | 18:15 |
kbmonkey | go ahead Cantide :) | 18:15 |
Cantide | just a thought | 18:16 |
Cantide | and this hasn't been thought through very well, i might add, so it may be a bit silly | 18:16 |
Cantide | but as a loco | 18:16 |
Cantide | is it possible to do something for charity + ubuntu.. | 18:16 |
Cantide | like for example, donate some ubuntu disks somewhere | 18:16 |
Cantide | 2 problems - finding the right place to donate them, and ensuring that it's not a waste of time | 18:17 |
magespawn | for us to donate? | 18:17 |
Cantide | yeah | 18:18 |
Cantide | would be a nice way to spread Ubuntu | 18:18 |
kbmonkey | Good idea Cantide, but to whom would we donate? | 18:18 |
Cantide | that's the problem :p | 18:18 |
Kilos | start with schools | 18:19 |
kbmonkey | educationals already have contracts for OS's (mostly anyway) | 18:19 |
Cantide | yeah, that is one possibility | 18:19 |
kbmonkey | if we can find one that doesn't it is a plan | 18:19 |
Cantide | but we'd not be able to donate hardware - too costly | 18:19 |
Cantide | so just disks... but then setting it up etc. etc. etc. | 18:20 |
magespawn | no they don't, at least not ms, they stopped the schools program | 18:20 |
Cantide | so yeah, it's a nice idea, but it has some serious complications to work through first | 18:20 |
Kilos | supply stckers on the dvds on where to get help | 18:20 |
Kilos | stickers | 18:21 |
Cantide | eh, us offering support would be tricky :p although we could grow our channel that way | 18:21 |
magespawn | well i am sure we can come up with some ideas | 18:21 |
kbmonkey | do pre-schools have a need for pc's? | 18:21 |
Cantide | annnnnnnnyway, just a thought | 18:21 |
kbmonkey | something to think on, thanks Cantide :) | 18:21 |
Cantide | it would be cool to do something like that, if we could get over the initial hurdles | 18:22 |
Cantide | Africa is a good place for that imho | 18:22 |
Cantide | maybe someone on the mailing list would know of a place to donate | 18:22 |
Cantide | for example | 18:22 |
Cantide | then we each chip in a hundred or so, and someone volunteers to burn the disks, someone else in the region collects them and distributes them | 18:23 |
kbmonkey | put some feelers out | 18:23 |
Squirm | magespawn: we have the schools license | 18:23 |
Cantide | hardware is probably much easier to donate than software, too -.-v | 18:24 |
kbmonkey | what license is that Squirm ? | 18:24 |
magespawn | not free anymore though Squirm | 18:24 |
Squirm | I think the biggest issue with distributing disks, is the actual setup and time taken to teach | 18:24 |
Squirm | kbmonkey: for MS? | 18:25 |
Squirm | or was this for ubuntu | 18:25 |
kbmonkey | ah. for ubuntu | 18:25 |
Cantide | Squirm, yes, but perhaps we could get around that by finding a place that is willing to do that themselves, and join here for help, as an example | 18:25 |
Cantide | if it's too difficult to do, then scrap it :p | 18:26 |
Cantide | just thought it was a nice idea | 18:26 |
Cantide | i will have some free time in a month | 18:26 |
kbmonkey | some nice thoughts there | 18:26 |
Squirm | I still want to set up a toaster :/ | 18:27 |
kbmonkey | Alright folks, just before we hit the hour mark we say goodbye. | 18:27 |
Cantide | :p | 18:27 |
Kilos | next meet 15th? | 18:27 |
