| moodoo | great podcast/hangout last night popey :) | 07:40 |
| MartijnVdS | "podout" | 07:41 |
| MartijnVdS | (hangcast sounds too macabre) | 07:42 |
| popey | thanks MartijnVdS | 07:46 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: I'm old-school, I wait for the mp3 ;) | 07:47 |
| popey | having problems with that! | 07:47 |
| MartijnVdS | :( | 07:47 |
| popey | It's on my iHP-140 which just locked up | 07:47 |
| MartijnVdS | that's not good | 07:48 |
| popey | its annoying | 07:48 |
| popey | i wanted to merge the audio from that with the MP4 from youtube | 07:48 |
| popey | now I need to wait for the battery to die | 07:48 |
| popey | or take it apart and disconnect battery | 07:48 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: you're not alone with "un-cooperative hardware": http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1309.1/01669.html | 07:49 |
| popey | yay, got it apart | 07:52 |
| popey | balls | 07:57 |
| popey | can't power down without removing drive | 07:57 |
| jussi | popey: does that thing not have a hard reset button? | 07:57 |
| popey | no | 07:57 |
| jussi | long press something perhaps? | 07:58 |
| popey | no | 07:58 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: is it this one? http://ec1.images-amazon.com/media/i3d/01/A/man-migrate/MANUAL000043279.pdf | 07:59 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: because that has a "reset" hole next to the USB port | 07:59 |
| popey | so it does | 07:59 |
| popey | yay | 07:59 |
| MartijnVdS | but that might be factory reset | 07:59 |
| popey | that was easy | 07:59 |
| popey | thanks chaps | 08:00 |
| MartijnVdS | np! | 08:00 |
| popey | the problem I had previously was it wouldn't show up as a usb device | 08:00 |
| popey | BAH! | 08:03 |
| popey | won't mount | 08:03 |
| popey | wonder if I can remove the disk and read it in a pc | 08:04 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: if not, you could at least run photorec against it to recover any files with known headers on there | 08:05 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: (image it first!) | 08:05 |
| popey | dunno what the on-disk format is though | 08:06 |
| popey | need an adapter | 08:09 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: do you have a picture of the connector? (or do you already know what it is) | 08:18 |
| popey | it's a 1.8" IDE | 08:21 |
| popey | http://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-1-8-HARD-DRIVE-ADAPTER/dp/B004351F7K | 08:21 |
| MartijnVdS | looks a bit like CompactFlash | 08:21 |
| popey | oh, looks like it is | 08:23 |
| popey | i forsee a trip to maplin | 08:23 |
| popey | bah, they dont sell them | 08:24 |

| TheOpenSourcerer | You've really gotto love X. I'm in the office and I needed to see some emails from an old pop account that is only configured on my home desktop. | 08:35 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | So I ssh'd -X to my home server, sent a wakeonlan to my desktop, ssh -X to my desktop, start Thunderbird. It then magically appears on my display in the office :-) | 08:35 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I hope all the Wayland/Mir stuff doesn't break this functionality. | 08:35 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all, happy Video Games Day! :-D | 08:35 |
| bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 08:42 |
| bigcalm | JamesTait: oooh, good time to re-play FEZ then :D | 08:43 |
| JamesTait | bigcalm, I'd say it'd be a good day to play minetest with the boys, but that happens most days in some form or another anyway. ;) | 08:45 |
| bigcalm | Hehe | 08:45 |
| bigcalm | What's minetest? | 08:45 |
| JamesTait | bigcalm, like Minecraft, but FLOSS. | 08:46 |
| moodoo | minetest? oooo /me goes looking | 08:46 |
| moodoo | http://minetest.net/ | 08:47 |
| JamesTait | It's in the archive, but IIRC it's quite an old version before saucy - it's getting some pretty serious development at the moment, so it's worth installing it from the PPA. | 08:47 |
| brobostigon | good morning everyone. | 08:54 |
| bigcalm | popey: mele f10 is in my hands | 09:20 |
| bigcalm | Delivery estimate was 4th -> 22nd October | 09:20 |
| popey | heh | 09:22 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: when the drive is in the iHP, is it detected (does /dev/sdX show up) and does mounting fail? | 09:26 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: or doesn't it show up at all? | 09:26 |
| popey | nothing in dmesg | 09:26 |
| MartijnVdS | does the device work at all? | 09:27 |
| popey | yes | 09:27 |
| popey | powers up, and if attached goes into USB mode | 09:27 |
| MartijnVdS | have you tried wiggling the USB cable/port? Might be a loose contact in there | 09:27 |
| MartijnVdS | can it play the file? (you could get it out the old-fashioned way, with analog cables etc.) | 09:28 |
| popey | could do | 09:29 |
| jussi | TheOpenSourcerer: nice. I should learn how to do this at some point... :D ( I assume certain things need "turning on" | 09:54 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | jussi: Nope. | 09:55 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | just run ssh -X user@host | 09:55 |
| jussi | TheOpenSourcerer: it just works out of the box ? | 09:55 |
| MartijnVdS | yeah | 09:55 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Yes! | 09:55 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Absolutely brilliant | 09:55 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | And you can chain | 09:55 |
| * jussi tests | 09:55 | |
| TheOpenSourcerer | ssh -X me@host1, ssh -X me@host 2 | 09:56 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Then run a GTK type app on the remote host | 09:56 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | And watch the magic ;-) | 09:56 |
| funkyHat | Well presumably as Wayland/Mir need to act as X servers for legacy apps anyway, that *should* keep working | 09:57 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Weel, as I said earlier I bloody well hope so. | 09:57 |
| funkyHat | I would be pretty annoyed if it stopped working too | 09:58 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | s/weel/well | 09:58 |
| jussi | hey, wait... its a funky funky funkyHat!!! | 10:02 |
| jussi | Hiya Matt :D | 10:02 |
| jussi | it does appear to work | 10:03 |
| jussi | although, gtk apps, I not sure if I have those installed... | 10:03 |
| popey | TheOpenSourcerer: http://wayland.freedesktop.org/faq.html "Is Wayland network transparent / does it support remote rendering?" | 10:07 |
| popey | dunno if that answers your question | 10:07 |
| funkyHat | Hi jussi ⢁) | 10:07 |
| jussi | "This doesn't mean that remote rendering won't be possible with Wayland, it just means that you will have to put a remote rendering server on top of Wayland. One such server could be the X.org server, but other options include an RDP server, a VNC server or somebody could even invent their own new remote rendering model." | 10:09 |
| jussi | so basically, the feature wont disappear, but I guess it will be still provided with X | 10:09 |
| popey | if you have x | 10:11 |
| ali1234 | due to the way wayland works, it won't matter what client you use for remote rendering: since they'll all have to do screen scraping, they'll all be as awful as VNC, even if the protocol happens to be X11 | 10:13 |
| funkyHat | ali1234: unless you run an X server locally on top of wayland and can forward that through ssh, I presume | 10:15 |
| ali1234 | yes, that should work okay | 10:15 |
| ali1234 | the problem is what happens when you try to forward an app that only supports wayland | 10:16 |
| ali1234 | anything that supports X11 will continue to work fine | 10:16 |
| DJones | Sheesh, people had to vote on this? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-24040130 wonder what it looks like in the water | 10:24 |
| bigcalm | I wonder what it tastes like | 10:30 |
| ali1234 | monkfish is both ugly and delicious | 10:30 |
| ali1234 | so maybe similar to that | 10:31 |

| mgdm | neuro: who is it that owns Scolocate? I'm sure it's either iomart or Pulsant, and suspect Pulsant, but can you remember? | 12:14 |
| neuro | pulsant | 12:15 |
| neuro | yes, the company who got booted out of scolocate 8 years ago now owns scolocate | 12:15 |
| mgdm | heh, I didn't know they got booted out | 12:15 |
| mgdm | why was that? | 12:16 |
| neuro | cos they built their own dc ;) | 12:17 |
| mgdm | ah | 12:17 |
| mgdm | I thought it was going to be an interesting reason | 12:17 |
| neuro | mgdm: there may have been more interesting reasons that i wasn't privy to, but that was the main gist | 12:27 |
| neuro | lumison turned from a customer to a competitor | 12:27 |

| popey | happy birthday JamesTait | 12:56 |
| JamesTait | Oh no, it's escaped! | 12:57 |
| JamesTait | Thank you popey. It's a vicious rumour though. I don't think I have a birthday. | 12:58 |
| bigcalm | JamesTait: you kept that one quiet by informing us of play games day | 13:02 |
| bigcalm | JamesTait: and happy birthday | 13:02 |

| JamesTait | davmor2, you're just trying to confuse me, aren't you? | 13:04 |
| bigcalm | Hi davmor2 | 13:04 |
| MartijnVdS | JamesTait: he's on Boston time, or something | 13:04 |
| JamesTait | Bostin' time? ;) | 13:04 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: the qa team are in a sprint at lexington so I'm on there timezone this week incase I'm needed for anything | 13:04 |
| MartijnVdS | there or their? | 13:05 |
| MartijnVdS | 13:05 | |
| JamesTait | davmor2, a simple "yes" would have sufficed. ;) | 13:05 |
| MartijnVdS | "Thank you for your information, citizen" | 13:05 |
| davmor2 | MartijnVdS: their | 13:06 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: Yes I do it deliberately to confuse you really :D | 13:06 |
| JamesTait | I knew it! | 13:06 |
| JamesTait | So when am I having my elevenses today? | 13:07 |
| dwatkins | eleventy o'clock | 13:08 |
| * JamesTait sets his alarm, just in case. | 13:11 | |
| bigcalm | A bit late for 11es now | 13:33 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: when I knock off at 11pm? | 13:33 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: you might want to change it's name to supper though :D | 13:34 |
| JamesTait | davmor2, I'll be thinking of you. ;) | 13:34 |
