| Squirm | morning | 06:44 |
| Kilos | hi Squirm captine | 06:45 |
| captine | morning | 06:45 |
| Kilos | welcome to ubuntu-za | 06:45 |
| captine | thnx Kilos. | 06:46 |
| captine | is this channel used actively or primarily for the LUG events? | 06:46 |
| captine | am new to the LOCO concept etc.. | 06:47 |
| captine | (am even mixing LOCO and LUG up) | 06:47 |
| Kilos | dunno what happened here but was typing your welcome and half went to pm | 06:47 |
| Squirm | captine: it's an active channel | 06:47 |
| Kilos | this is our help channel | 06:47 |
| Squirm | Official Ubuntu channel of ZA | 06:47 |
| Kilos | help with all linux systems | 06:47 |
| Squirm | I know the Gauteng LUG is at #glug.za, but most of the guys are here anyway | 06:48 |
| Kilos | we also just chat sometimes too | 06:48 |
| Squirm | Kilos: a lot of the time :P | 06:48 |
| captine | nice | 06:48 |
| Kilos | hehe | 06:48 |
| Kilos | its our family channel | 06:48 |
| Squirm | but yes, if there is a question to be asked, just ask it and someone would be likely to respond | 06:49 |
| captine | how long have you all been using linux? I just moved back to ZA from Philippines and "converted" my personal machine to ubuntu there… but it is in a container so i am on a macbook now | 06:49 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 06:49 |
| captine | Kilos: no worries on the PM. Things are ok.. cold, but ok | 06:49 |
| Kilos | cold here too. you in the tvl? | 06:50 |
| captine | Jhb | 06:50 |
| Kilos | ive been on ubuntu since 8.10 | 06:50 |
| Kilos | yeah winter up here sucks | 06:51 |
| magespawn | good morning | 06:51 |
| Squirm | Kilos: you know what it's like down here :/ | 06:51 |
| Squirm | and then there's magespawn who probably dies of heat daily | 06:51 |
| Kilos | yeah i know mooiriver squirm | 06:51 |
| magespawn | not in winter, but still walking around in shorts and a t-shirt | 06:52 |
| Kilos | i loved hluhluwe | 06:52 |
| Kilos | hi magespawn | 06:52 |
| magespawn | hey Kilos | 06:52 |
| Squirm | magespawn: ... | 06:52 |
| Kilos | magespawn, try 2 tracksuits and a big sheepskin jacket | 06:52 |
| Squirm | you suck | 06:52 |
| magespawn | had the aircon on yesterday | 06:53 |
| captine | that was me in Philippines. 8am in "winter" and it was 30 degrees | 06:53 |
| Squirm | ... | 06:53 |
| captine | loved it | 06:53 |
| Squirm | 8am in winter and it's close to 0 | 06:53 |
| magespawn | i like cold weather too, so i am easy to please most of the time | 06:56 |
| captine | am not a fan. although running zircon 24/7 is pricey in the heat | 06:56 |
| magespawn | captine a bit of a change the jhb temps then | 06:57 |
| captine | yip. what a terrible time to move back | 06:57 |
| captine | :) | 06:57 |
| Kilos | hehe | 06:57 |
| Kilos | i go feed sheep | 06:59 |
| captine | sheep | 06:59 |
| captine | fun | 06:59 |
| Kilos | stupid animals only good as chops | 07:00 |
| magespawn | anybody have any problems from the ubuntu forums hack? | 07:01 |
| captine | i don't think i had an account and if i did, i cannot remember | 07:03 |
| captine | but didn't receive an email and heard they were sending mails to each person with an account… or am i wrong | 07:03 |
| magespawn | looks like they will be up and running in the next couple of days | 07:03 |
| magespawn | not sure, i think i got one | 07:04 |
| captine | do any of you use ubuntu for business? and if so, what business / applications | 07:08 |
| captine | I am an accountant and starting a new job on Monday in a company looking to rollout new BI tools etc. They just signed with Microsoft for Exchange etc, as they were running some old system before | 07:09 |
| captine | and i am hoping to influence in the way of open source ;) | 07:09 |
| magespawn | i run an internet cafe and pc shop, most of my computers run a version of ubuntu | 07:10 |
| magespawn | i think there are a couple of the others doing work only on linux | 07:11 |
| captine | nice. I was looking to buy a small PC business that was for sale, but broker hasn't gotten back to me | 07:11 |
| captine | magespawn: are there any linux specific PC vendors in SA like System 76? they didn't seem too keen to expand shipping to SA | 07:12 |
| captine | and I am tired of fighting with hardware on laptops | 07:12 |
| magespawn | i have not seen any, dell has just brought out a ultrabook developed for ubuntu from the start | 07:13 |
| captine | saw that | 07:13 |
| magespawn | ironically sa is still very windows focused | 07:14 |
| captine | yes. we are used to paying and lock in | 07:15 |
| captine | seems lots of people are jumping on the mac train too | 07:15 |
| magespawn | yup linux is still in the dark area of computers for most people | 07:17 |
| magespawn | i have some who are highly suspicious of something that is free | 07:17 |
| captine | yip. | 07:18 |
| captine | so do you use some sort of squid setup at the cafe for the internet access timing? or manually monitor how long people have been online? | 07:19 |
| * not_found is playing with the beta ubuntu touch sdk... pity I am not a dev because it looks pretty awesome :) | 07:20 | |
| captine | not_found: all these cool looking things make me want to be a dev too | 07:22 |
| Kilos | hi not_found | 07:23 |
| not_found | yup | 07:23 |
| not_found | alo uncle Kilos | 07:23 |
| not_found | *sigh* come now interwebs or is the issue flash player... grrr... | 07:24 |
| magespawn | captine, manually at the moment, most of the business income is through repairs etc of pc, internet, faxes, photocopies etc just a way to bring extra money | 07:31 |
| captine | magespawn: do you do second hand equipment (1U rack's etc) | 07:32 |
| magespawn | no i work mainly on small business and home pc | 07:35 |
| magespawn | if you search G&C Net, Hluhluwe in google maps you will see my shop | 07:37 |
| captine | nice | 07:38 |
| captine | might come to you for some help should i get the store up here in JHB… :) | 07:38 |
| magespawn | np | 07:40 |
| magespawn | captine what sort of business is it? repairs etc or more business type services? | 08:07 |
| captine | the one for sale is a small shop with internet cafe | 08:07 |
| magespawn | ahh so very similar to what i am doing here | 08:09 |
| Kilos | hi psychicist | 08:29 |
| captine | possibly. I would want to grow the small business support side | 08:32 |
| captine | get some contracts etc in place | 08:33 |
| captine | but will see. | 08:33 |
| captine | have contacted the broker but am waiting to hear back in terms of the details I asked. | 08:33 |
| magespawn | since when do youtube videos have ads in the middle? | 08:38 |
| magespawn | it is just like watching sabc now | 08:39 |
| Kilos | lol | 08:43 |
| Kilos | hi mazal | 08:45 |
| mazal | More oom | 08:45 |
| mazal | Besig met my 12.04 install | 08:45 |
| Kilos | kde? | 08:46 |
| mazal | Updates drame klaar , nou moet ek die apps bysit wat ek nodig | 08:46 |
| mazal | Nee , Ubuntu | 08:46 |
| mazal | " recovery install " en terselfertyd vir die apps wat nie werk in 13.04 nie | 08:46 |
| Kilos | ai! | 08:47 |
| mazal | And now ubuntu forums is down. Now I don't know how to get the command for multimedia support :-( | 08:48 |
| mazal | There is a thread there for multimedia support install I always use | 08:48 |
| mazal | Isn't sessentials something ? | 08:48 |
| mazal | essentials even ? | 08:48 |
| mazal | No wait , restricted-extras ? | 08:49 |
| Kilos | once youve installed you can get that in synaptic or software centre | 08:49 |
| Kilos | ubuntu-restricted-extras | 08:50 |
| mazal | I know , but I can't remember all the package names | 08:50 |
| mazal | And there is stuff for dvd support also that I can't remember the name | 08:50 |
| Kilos | where is your dejadup? | 08:50 |
| Kilos | didnt you backup it before | 08:51 |
| Kilos | back it up | 08:51 |
| mazal | I have the app names in a doc , must just find that in all these partitions now lol | 08:52 |
| Kilos | lol | 08:52 |
| mazal | Think it's libdvdread or dvdnav4 or something | 08:52 |
| mazal | All these stuff is in one command that thread I always use | 08:52 |
| Kilos | i have the same prob with 3 drives in here and each with its own partitions | 08:52 |
| mazal | This is why I hate a pure new install. So many things you need to add to make it work :( | 08:54 |
| Kilos | hehe | 08:54 |
| Kilos | where is your remastersys dvd | 08:55 |
| mazal | My 12.04 one doesn't want to boot mos remember. Grey screen | 08:56 |
| Kilos | ai! | 08:56 |
| mazal | Probably a drivers thing , although drivers is not supposed to be included in iso | 08:56 |
| mazal | This one not gonna install any screen drivers and make new iso | 08:57 |
| mazal | IF remastersys is still installable that is | 08:57 |
| mazal | Still nothing going on at the guys that took it over | 08:58 |
| Kilos | my 12.04 dvd works fine | 08:58 |
| mazal | I think he took down his repositories , if that be the case I don't know how I'm going to install it ? | 08:59 |
| Kilos | dont you have the package anywhere | 09:00 |
| Kilos | i only see 2 packages for it remastersys and remastersys-gui | 09:02 |
| Kilos | can send to you and you can install them with gdebi maybe | 09:02 |
| mazal | debs might be in my apt-cache backup | 09:02 |
| mazal | Will look | 09:02 |
| mazal | How do I enable mediubuntu repositories ? | 09:03 |
| mazal | Another thing I need that was in that thread :( | 09:04 |

| Vince-0 | there really does need to be publicity so I'm trying to find out the details so I can spread the word | 09:31 |
| magespawn | sfd is in September | 09:31 |
| magespawn | would be awesome if the two events happened at the same time, even close together would be nice | 09:38 |
| magespawn | Vince-0, how did you find out? | 09:39 |
| Vince-0 | I was contacted by some guys in Jo'burg | 09:39 |
| Vince-0 | as soon as there is concrete info I will ask to send it around asap | 09:42 |
| magespawn | well as soon as there is more info available, i am sure we can help with the publicity | 09:42 |
| Vince-0 | time is running out | 09:42 |
