| Kilos | hahaha | 07:50 |
| kbmonkey | I wish I had some breakfast today. I feel hungry! | 07:51 |
| Kilos | installing kubuntu 13.10 on other pc | 07:51 |
| kbmonkey | nice | 07:51 |
| kbmonkey | Im playing with Milkytracker | 07:51 |
| Kilos | aw aint you got pronutro? | 07:51 |
| kbmonkey | no man that is babys food | 07:51 |
| Kilos | it is the healthiest cereal out there | 07:52 |
| kbmonkey | ;) | 07:52 |
| Kilos | can be fed to anything even goldfish | 07:52 |
| kbmonkey | I got roasted and rolled oats muesli thing | 07:52 |
| Kilos | so pretend you a baby at times and get some | 07:52 |
| kbmonkey | I like that plan as long as I dont have to wear diapers | 07:52 |
| Kilos | rofl | 07:53 |
| kbmonkey | rofl | 07:53 |
| Kilos | seriously healthy food that you can live on it | 07:53 |
| Kilos | and its very lekker, | 07:54 |
| kbmonkey | I just pulling my leg. I like pronuto I just don't have any today. needs shopping trip. | 07:55 |
| Kilos | lol | 07:55 |
| kbmonkey | fridge is empty! | 07:56 |
| Kilos | hey we gotta think about trying to promote this channel more | 07:56 |
| kbmonkey | I been very bad with it lately ha ha | 07:56 |
| Kilos | or make the existing adds or so more obvious | 07:56 |
| Kilos | shopping is a pain | 07:57 |
| Kilos | there are lotsa peeps using ubuntu that dont know we exist | 07:57 |
| kbmonkey | its all about numbers. most people wont bother as they on all the other IM and chats like fb or whatnot. | 07:57 |
| kbmonkey | so they are not curious enough to try something new | 07:58 |
| Kilos | no man some dont know we have a help channel | 07:58 |
| kbmonkey | I used 'buntu for maybe 2 years before I joined irc | 07:58 |
| Kilos | found a ballie on #libreoffice looking for help with a crashing unity | 07:59 |
| kbmonkey | maybe 1.5 years | 07:59 |
| kbmonkey | eish | 07:59 |
| kbmonkey | I get tired hearing somuch of crashing unity. it is very sad :( | 07:59 |
| Kilos | on our west coast | 07:59 |
| Kilos | no man they dont all know about update/upgrade and using ppas | 08:00 |
| Kilos | like he ppaed the latest libreoffice then unity kept hanging | 08:00 |
| Kilos | and that channel dont answer help much | 08:00 |
| Kilos | sjoe 13.04 is faster | 08:02 |
| Kilos | installed on old p4 in 15 mins about | 08:02 |
| Kilos | slow to reboot though | 08:04 |
| kbmonkey | remember Gnome is a mature project. It was born in 1997. It was a hasty move to push unity to the main stream so you get these problems now and then. | 08:04 |
| kbmonkey | wow that is quick Kilos ! | 08:05 |
| Kilos | and no need to turn off desktop effects even with scrapped graphics card | 08:05 |
| Kilos | this is kde | 08:05 |
| Kilos | 12.04 took 30 mins to install there | 08:05 |
| Kilos | just a bit blue the background. too close to win for me | 08:06 |
| Kilos | when you going to ubuntu kbmonkey ? | 08:07 |
| kbmonkey | the last one I used was 10.10 (I think) | 08:07 |
| kbmonkey | or 11.04 | 08:08 |
| Kilos | oh if you know of irc social channels in za tell sally | 08:08 |
| kbmonkey | I am not sure I am going back to Ubuntu Kilos - Once Unity came in I decided to adventure into new territory | 08:08 |
| Kilos | this 13.04 kde looks good | 08:08 |
| kbmonkey | that kde plasma | 08:09 |
| Kilos | i also have a prob with unity later than 12.04 but the kde has got better imo | 08:09 |
| Kilos | yeah | 08:09 |
| Kilos | will do update/upgrade if i can stay awake tonight | 08:09 |
| Kilos | kde has got more tools for your kinda clever peeps i think | 08:10 |
| kbmonkey | I tell my pc to turn off in x hours at night. it is useful. | 08:10 |
| kbmonkey | kde has a lot of 'widgets' and 'applets' and things | 08:11 |
| kbmonkey | not an applet man myself. | 08:11 |
| kbmonkey | I like the simple things in life ;) | 08:11 |
| kbmonkey | irc social channels? can you explain a bit more please? | 08:13 |
| Kilos | i dunno i suppose she meant where peeps get together and just chat | 08:16 |
| Kilos | we must try get her to use ubuntu | 08:16 |
| kbmonkey | chat here :D | 08:17 |
| Kilos | hehe | 08:17 |
| kbmonkey | there are 100's of channels here for various projects. freenode is for project discussion. | 08:17 |
| Kilos | this new kde is really good | 08:17 |
| kbmonkey | other irc servers exist - enter at your own risk | 08:18 |
| Kilos | im sorry now i didnt use that data to upgrade my 12.04 kde | 08:18 |
| Kilos | she seems to know irc because i see she is masked | 08:18 |
| Kilos | oh not anymore | 08:19 |
| Kilos | maybe im mistook | 08:19 |
| Kilos | hey kbmonkey you must study man | 08:20 |
| Kilos | there linux engineer jobs going there in durbs | 08:20 |
| kbmonkey | like the first time I see a linux job position in years | 08:21 |
| kbmonkey | this job thing is really a waste of one's life | 08:23 |
| kbmonkey | at least the current job is | 08:24 |
| Kilos | ya but difficult to start on your own until everyone knows about you | 08:25 |
| kbmonkey | what if you have a condition where you dont want everyone to know about you Kilos ? | 08:37 |
| kbmonkey | then is it impossibly difficult? | 08:37 |
| Kilos | yeah but thats where the work comes from | 08:38 |
| Kilos | hard to start off on your own | 08:38 |
| Kilos | no income for a long time | 08:38 |
| Kilos | hi Xethron | 09:04 |
| charl_ | hi Kilos | 12:19 |
| charl_ | and everyone else | 12:19 |

| charl_ | exactly, it's really smooth and fast ! | 12:29 |
| Kilos | yeah installed in 15 mins on my slower pc | 12:39 |
| Kilos | now i want it here but will need to wait for 11pm to do update/upgrade | 12:48 |
| charl_ | i am pretty happy right here with i3 on my laptop because i like to use keyboard navigation (using the touchpad sucks) | 12:50 |
| charl_ | at work i'm using gnome3 on debian7 atm which is also good enough | 12:51 |
| charl_ | but i still think kde4 is all-round the best desktop there is at the moment | 12:51 |
| Kilos | i will see after an upgrade so i can see how everything works | 12:52 |
| magespawn | Howdy all | 12:55 |
| Kilos | hi magespawn howsit | 12:56 |

| Kilos | eish | 13:16 |

| Kilos | haha | 17:02 |
| Kilos | wbb | 17:15 |
| magespawn | evening all | 17:45 |
| kbmonkey | hello magespawn | 17:47 |
| kbmonkey | how goes it? can you also hear fireworks this entire weekend? | 17:48 |
| magespawn | hey kbmonkey | 17:48 |
| magespawn | not here in hluhluwe, not many Hindu people here | 17:48 |
| magespawn | i have a general sort of question: if i have root accessto your bare metal server how do you get me off? | 17:50 |
| kbmonkey | oh yes, I though it was for guy falkes or some other. | 17:51 |
| magespawn | Diwali I think | 17:51 |
| kbmonkey | if you have root's password to my server, I can block your IP from ssh'ing in - best protection is to change the password though | 17:52 |
| magespawn | okay assume that if i had root access i will have locked you out | 17:52 |
| kbmonkey | if it is via ssh you should not use passwords anyway - use gpg keys for authentication and disable remote password logins | 17:52 |
| kbmonkey | oh, I see.. | 17:53 |
| kbmonkey | If you locked me out? that is pretty serious - reboot the server in recovery mode and reset root password from there (single user mode) | 17:53 |
| kbmonkey | you need physical access to do that | 17:54 |
| magespawn | which yuo could only really do if you had physical access to the machine? | 17:54 |
| kbmonkey | recovery mode boots to a root console, thenyou can "passwd root" | 17:54 |
| magespawn | right just wanted some conformation of what i suspected, lots of politics at work | 17:55 |
| kbmonkey | correct. without physical access and no way to log in, you cannot recover the root account. | 17:55 |
| kbmonkey | hmm, it sounds harsh. | 17:55 |
| === Eames is now known as magespawn | ||
| magespawn | right back just had to change connection | 17:58 |
| kbmonkey | roger | 17:58 |
| kbmonkey | so magespawn are you the one locked out, or was it a question to see if somebody else could get back in? | 18:03 |
| * kbmonkey puts the monocale on | 18:03 | |
| magespawn | no i am not the one locked out | 18:06 |
| magespawn | the works joomla website was cracked today, and the 'other' it person claims it was done by a script on the server with root access | 18:07 |
| kbmonkey | man, that is some claim, and how did it get on there in the first place. | 18:08 |
| magespawn | quote 'this is a script that some one have run in the server with root access that affects every one on that server | 18:08 |
| magespawn | ' | 18:08 |
| magespawn | exactly you would need some sort of access alrready that you could somehow elevate to root | 18:09 |
| kbmonkey | indeed. | 18:12 |
| magespawn | it was a joomla cms, on apache, presumable on some sort of linux os | 18:13 |
| magespawn | I think they host themselves, though how and where I have no idea | 18:15 |
| magespawn | I feel a little like a mushroom sometimes, lol | 18:16 |
| kbmonkey | A goomba mushroom? | 18:18 |
| kbmonkey | those guys in Mario Bros | 18:18 |
| magespawn | if they are kept in the dark and fed on manure | 18:19 |
| kbmonkey | they love that though, so it may not be your calling if that is the case :p | 18:23 |
| magespawn | how do you do your job if that is the case then? | 18:52 |
| magespawn | brb | 18:56 |
| magespawn | exit | 18:56 |
| Kilos | guten abend mein herren | 19:01 |
| Kilos | abent | 19:01 |

| magespawn | indeed, altough i was at work briefly today | 19:36 |
| Kilos | ah with the hacking prob | 19:36 |
| magespawn | no strangely enough not, those computers are nowhere near the property, this was a failed network cable | 19:37 |
| Kilos | ai! | 19:37 |
| Kilos | how do cables fail | 19:37 |
| Kilos | what do they make then out of | 19:37 |
| magespawn | this was an ethernet cable, might be at one or other of the ends, or from electricity or such | 19:38 |
| magespawn | copper and plastic | 19:38 |
| Kilos | ai! | 19:39 |
| magespawn | it can happen | 19:39 |
| Kilos | without movement? | 19:39 |
| magespawn | yup but there are also some seriously funny ways of putting in cable | 19:40 |
| Kilos | ai!. ok then lad have a good evening | 19:41 |
| Kilos | last night was too late for me | 19:41 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:41 |
