| Kilos | morning all | 06:36 |
| magespawn | good morning | 07:11 |
| nlsthzn | o/ | 07:11 |
| Kilos | hi magespawn nlsthzn | 07:13 |
| nlsthzn | alo uncle Kilos | 07:15 |
| Kilos | you must learn some python man | 07:15 |
| magespawn | hey nlsthzn Kilos | 07:16 |
| magespawn | me or nlsthzn? | 07:16 |
| Kilos | both | 07:16 |
| * nlsthzn is planning on that | 07:17 | |
| Kilos | im to doff to set nickserv_password in my bot | 07:17 |
| nlsthzn | :) | 07:18 |
| Kilos | the thing was cloaked long ago but it needs to identify everytime to stay cloaked | 07:18 |
| Kilos | i see you havent cloaked yet magespawn | 07:19 |
| * nlsthzn will start Learn Python the Hard Way (again) but this time finish it too :p | 07:22 | |
| magespawn | no not yet | 07:22 |
| magespawn | i practice python when i get the chance | 07:22 |
| Kilos | we could have a python class like we started with LPI | 07:25 |
| Kilos | just gotta set a permanent day/evening and no excuses | 07:26 |
| nlsthzn | LPI didn't last long :/ | 07:26 |
| nlsthzn | or did I just miss it? | 07:26 |
| Kilos | no the monkey moved remember | 07:27 |
| Kilos | then had no internet | 07:27 |
| Kilos | i forwarded a mail to the list about the new exam stuffs | 07:28 |
| nlsthzn | oh yes I saw that... so the book I have has now lost some of it usefulness :/ not like I was using it anyway :( | 07:30 |
| Kilos | ai! | 07:30 |
| Kilos | the main stuff will be the same i think only new stuff is added and obsolete stuff removed from the exams | 07:31 |
| nlsthzn | I played around with LVM on my desktop, eventually had to use my windows disc to get control of my hdd back because not even gparted could get them to a clean state >.< | 07:40 |
| Kilos | lol | 07:40 |
| nlsthzn | was a difficult morning, installed fedora because it makes LVM easy, then hit a snag as the Radeon driver doesn't work with the new 3.10 kernel which fedora updates too so I tried to revert back to ubuntu and that took 4 hours of fighting | 07:44 |
| nlsthzn | almost re-installed windows >.< | 07:44 |
| Kilos | eish | 07:50 |
| Kilos | you tried byte of python hey? | 07:50 |
| nlsthzn | nope | 07:50 |
| Kilos | i got as far as hello world i think | 07:50 |
| Kilos | http://www.ibiblio.org/g2swap/byteofpython/files/120/byteofpython_120.pdf | 07:51 |
| Kilos | you gotta then learn vim, i started learning vim and forgot python which was the point | 07:52 |
| Kilos | now its all forgotten again | 07:53 |
| nlsthzn | that would suck... | 07:54 |
| nlsthzn | or does suck | 07:55 |
| Kilos | hehe yeah | 07:55 |
| Kilos | main thing is i member aptitude reinstall and how to rsync -av | 07:55 |
| Kilos | so all good | 07:55 |
| nlsthzn | does it force you to use vim? | 07:56 |
| Kilos | no | 07:58 |
| nlsthzn | cool | 07:58 |
| Kilos | you use editor of choice i think | 07:58 |
| nlsthzn | I see I also have a copy of An Introduction to Python | 07:59 |
| nlsthzn | by John C. Lusth | 07:59 |
| nlsthzn | pity downloading them doesn't make you know them :p | 07:59 |
| Kilos | the fly always recommends byteofpython to start with | 07:59 |
| nlsthzn | then I will have a look at it , thanks uncle Kilos\ | 08:00 |
| Kilos | yw | 08:00 |
| Kilos | if i could get the basics going you should crack it | 08:00 |
| Kilos | and playing with it didnt crash my pc | 08:01 |
| Kilos | i manage that quite well on my own | 08:02 |
| nlsthzn | :) | 08:10 |
| magespawn | python lseems to me relatively easy to learn and powerful | 08:18 |
| magespawn | there are also python lessons on codcademy | 08:18 |
| nlsthzn | I have done some of the lessons on codeacademy... | 08:20 |
| * nlsthzn will bbl | 08:22 | |
| Kilos | sigh | 09:06 |

| mazal | Afternoon all | 10:22 |
| charl | good afternoon | 10:23 |
| charl | hi mazal | 10:23 |
| mazal | Hi charl | 10:23 |
| charl | Maaz: coffee on | 10:23 |
| * Maaz puts the kettle on | 10:23 | |
| charl | mazal: how's it going | 10:23 |
| mazal | Good thanx and you charl ? | 10:23 |
| charl | mazal: good thanks | 10:23 |
| mazal | Anybody have a link to how to remove old kernels with synaptic ? | 10:25 |
| mazal | I only find cli ones | 10:25 |
| charl | sudo apt-get autoremove | 10:25 |
| charl | oh i see, with synaptic | 10:25 |
| charl | no idea | 10:25 |
| Kilos | hi mazal charl | 10:26 |
| mazal | with apt-get I'm going to have to type each ones name | 10:26 |
| charl | mazal: no | 10:26 |
| mazal | Hallo oom | 10:26 |
| charl | mazal: autoremove does that for you | 10:26 |
| charl | hi Kilos | 10:26 |
| mazal | Ah , nice :-) | 10:26 |
| mazal | just the one command like that ? | 10:26 |
| charl | Kilos: how's it going | 10:26 |
| charl | mazal: yes | 10:26 |
| mazal | thanx | 10:26 |
| charl | mazal: i do that frequently especially on servers because otherwise the boot partition fills up | 10:27 |
| Kilos | not bad ty just some things dont wanna work | 10:27 |
| Maaz | Coffee's ready for charl! | 10:27 |
| charl | Maaz: thanks | 10:27 |
| Maaz | charl: No problem | 10:27 |
| Kilos | mazal, remastersys gives an error | 10:27 |
| Kilos | something about not finding filesystem.squash something or other | 10:28 |
| mazal | Oi | 10:28 |
| mazal | When you boot or when you create ? | 10:28 |
| Kilos | but it actually makes the file then loses it | 10:28 |
| Kilos | hehe | 10:28 |
| Kilos | create | 10:28 |
| mazal | Default target path or did you change it ? | 10:28 |
| mazal | "working folder" | 10:29 |
| Kilos | where would i change it | 10:29 |
| mazal | default then :-) | 10:29 |
| Kilos | hehe | 10:29 |
| mazal | That's a strange one Kilos | 10:29 |
| mazal | Never had that before | 10:29 |
| Kilos | yeah i always have strange probs | 10:29 |
| mazal | Enough space on /home ? | 10:30 |
| Kilos | before it just worked | 10:30 |
| Kilos | ya lots | 10:30 |
| mazal | And you did remember to run the clean command first ? | 10:30 |
| Kilos | ill run it again and we get the clever peeps to see where it went wrong | 10:30 |
| Kilos | ya | 10:30 |
| mazal | I would suggest creating a remastersys folder in your own home folder | 10:31 |
| Kilos | clean command or clear logs?? | 10:31 |
| mazal | Then make that the "working dorectory" | 10:31 |
| mazal | clean command of remastersys to clean out previous creates | 10:31 |
| mazal | It must always be run , before you create again | 10:31 |
| Kilos | where you see that | 10:31 |
| mazal | do you use it in cli or gui ? | 10:32 |
| Kilos | do you run it from cli or the gui | 10:32 |
| Kilos | gui | 10:32 |
| mazal | gooi weg die gui | 10:32 |
| mazal | in cli : | 10:32 |
| mazal | sudo su | 10:32 |
| mazal | your password | 10:32 |
| Kilos | ok give commands | 10:32 |
| mazal | remastersys clean | 10:32 |
| mazal | remastersys clean | 10:32 |
| mazal | remastersys dist | 10:33 |
| mazal | It must clean out all the old stuff in the working folder first | 10:33 |
| mazal | and it must run in root mode , that's why the first one is sudo su to change to full root mode | 10:33 |
| mazal | and the clean command I always run twice | 10:34 |
| mazal | and everything must be closed , all apps , nothing open | 10:34 |
| Kilos | ok i got it running that way now, well see ty | 10:35 |
| mazal | Any open app that changes files or anything can also make it fail. Things like mail , irc , firefox etc. | 10:35 |
| Kilos | wbb ty | 10:36 |
| mazal | If that don't work I suggest another working folder | 10:36 |
| mazal | oi too slow | 10:36 |
| Kilos | grrr | 10:37 |
| Kilos | same thjing | 10:37 |
| Kilos | thing | 10:37 |
| Kilos | The filesystem.squashfs filesystem is missing. Either there was a problem creating the compressed filesystem or you are trying to run sudo remastersys dist iso before sudo remastersys dist cdfs | 10:37 |
| mazal | That is very strange | 10:38 |
| mazal | Try the different working folder plan. | 10:39 |
| mazal | /etc/remastersys.conf | 10:39 |
| mazal | Maybe it will help if the folder is in your own home folder | 10:39 |
| mazal | charl you still here ? | 10:41 |
| charl | mazal: yes | 10:43 |
| mazal | charl, that autoremove command , does it remove other stuff that is not needed anymore as well , or only the kernels ? | 10:44 |
| charl | it *could* remove other stuff too | 10:44 |
| mazal | k | 10:44 |
| charl | i usually only use it to remove old kernels | 10:45 |
| charl | it will give you a list of the packages it will remove before it does it | 10:45 |
| charl | maybe you can select certain packages to be removed / retained | 10:45 |
| mazal | ok thanx | 10:45 |
| charl | under most circumstances you could let it remove everything | 10:45 |
| charl | just be careful if you have some strange configuration | 10:45 |
| Kilos | ai! drive died | 10:47 |
| Kilos | will see what maverick can find | 10:47 |
| charl | bah :( | 10:47 |
| charl | old drive ? | 10:47 |
| mazal | http://slexy.org/view/s21N9LftKN | 10:47 |
| Kilos | try to boot and it says insert boot media and press enter | 10:48 |
| Kilos | grrr | 10:48 |
| mazal | Kilos, there is my config file. Check if yours is ok. Especially the squash option line | 10:48 |
| Kilos | ya charl but not as old as my mavericks drive | 10:48 |
| Kilos | wait till i fix the drive first | 10:48 |
| mazal | Is it the one you tried to remaster that broke now ? | 10:49 |
| Kilos | ya | 10:49 |
| mazal | That might explain why renastersys failed. | 10:50 |
| mazal | The failing drive might have caused the problem | 10:50 |
| Kilos | maybe ya | 10:50 |
| Kilos | just run sudo fsck -f /dev/sdb1 | 10:50 |
| Kilos | it says filesystem was modified so ill see if i can boot from it now | 10:51 |
| Kilos | wbb | 10:51 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 10:56 |
| mazal | Still dead ? | 10:57 |
| Kilos | nope im on it now | 10:57 |
| mazal | k | 10:57 |
| Kilos | its like there is a virus somewhere | 10:57 |
| Kilos | how can the drive just disappear but fsck fixes it | 10:58 |
| mazal | Can one specify multiple drives with that fsck command ? | 10:58 |
| Kilos | ya | 10:58 |
| Kilos | i think i read you must not do it on the drive you are on | 10:59 |
| mazal | for example sudo fsck -f /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 ? | 10:59 |
| Kilos | ya | 10:59 |
| Kilos | sudo fsck -f /dev/sdb1 i did that | 10:59 |
| mazal | And on multiple partition drive , can one say sudo fsck -f /dev/sdb and it will check all partitions on the drive ? | 11:00 |
| Kilos | i dunno | 11:00 |
| Kilos | its a command the crash kid gave me to fix an external that didnt work | 11:00 |
| mazal | If remember gonna boot my recovery drive and then use that command to see if it checks all partitions on my main drive | 11:02 |
| mazal | gtg , need to image this drive and test a few things | 11:11 |
| inetpro | superfly: ping | 14:20 |
| inetpro | good afternoon everyone | 14:20 |
| inetpro | using Kubuntu how can I force a 2nd or 3rd user's tty session to end in the background without killing individual processes manually? | 14:22 |
| * inetpro looking for something similar to gnome-session-quit | 14:25 | |
| Vince-0 | ya good question | 15:06 |
| Kilos | hi inetpro | 15:59 |
| inetpro | Kilos: wb | 15:59 |
| Kilos | ty this modems back to timeouting looks like | 15:59 |
| Kilos | have you read the logs?? | 16:00 |
| inetpro | no, why? | 16:00 |
| Kilos | lol i need to know how to set nickserv_password in ibid.ine | 16:00 |
| inetpro | Kilos: ag nee man | 16:01 |
| inetpro | pla dit jou? | 16:01 |
| Kilos | what?? | 16:01 |
| Kilos | its so it can identify with freenode so the cloak works | 16:01 |
| Kilos | i just remembered what i did last year | 16:02 |
| inetpro | why? | 16:02 |
| Kilos | logged in as the bot them identified | 16:02 |
| Kilos | why are you cloaked? | 16:03 |
| Kilos | i spose security so ip not visible | 16:03 |
| Kilos- | ai! | 16:13 |
| === Kilos- is now known as Kilos | ||
| Kilos | hi Cantide | 16:23 |
| Cantide | hey Kilos :) | 16:24 |
| inetpro | Kilos: I don't care so much about cloaking my home connection as I do my office's connection | 17:06 |
| Kilos | ah ok then. just thought it would be good if QA was cloaked as well like maaz | 17:07 |
| inetpro | at home we rely on the 8ta, voda and others to keep us protected in a way | 17:07 |
| Kilos | ill get the weed to explain in old fashioned english when he has time | 17:08 |
| Kilos | yeah but funny things happen here | 17:08 |
| inetpro | funny things happen when you allow them to happen | 17:09 |
| Kilos | like modem stays working fine for 3 days the disappears and all of a sudden drive is missing and nothing can find errors on it | 17:09 |
| Kilos | disk utility shows drive is healthy | 17:09 |
| Kilos | yo smile | 17:10 |
| smile | hi Kilos :D | 17:11 |
| smile | I like ChatZilla ;) | 17:11 |
| inetpro | when you have adsl or leased line you have to take care of your own connection more than with 3g | 17:12 |
| inetpro | Kilos: those are most likely your own local issues | 17:13 |
| inetpro | hmm... looks like he really has a few issues there | 17:18 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 17:52 |
| Kilos | nag inetpro | 17:52 |

| Cantide | oh, who is taking part in the app showdown? | 19:34 |
| kbmonkey | hello. wha is the app showdown cantide? | 20:20 |
| Cantide | hold on.. | 20:20 |
| Cantide | link incoming | 20:20 |
| Cantide | http://developer.ubuntu.com/2013/08/announcing-the-2013-ubuntu-app-showdown-contest/ | 20:21 |
| Cantide | if you win, you can win an Nexus 4 with Ubuntu Touch preloaded | 20:21 |
| Cantide | http://developer.ubuntu.com/showdown/ | 20:21 |
| kbmonkey | cool! | 20:21 |
| Cantide | yeah!! | 20:23 |
| Cantide | time to get coding! | 20:23 |
| Cantide | the only thing is thinking of a cool idea that is within my capabilities >.< | 20:23 |
| kbmonkey | trying to download 3mMB on 10 kb/s is really painful :( | 20:24 |
| Cantide | oh :( | 20:25 |
| Cantide | i had to install the ubuntu sdk - it was nearly 70 mb | 20:25 |
| Cantide | so i thought twice about it | 20:25 |
| Cantide | but now that i have it, i have to make use of it - so make an app i shall! | 20:26 |
| kbmonkey | it has to be using the sdk? | 20:28 |
| Cantide | i think that is preferred | 20:28 |
| Cantide | yes | 20:29 |
| kbmonkey | will check out the page once this download is done | 20:29 |
| Cantide | but you could write it in a text editor and run it from the terminal | 20:29 |
| Cantide | afaik | 20:29 |
