Kiloshi magespawn 06:26
inetprogood morning06:33
Kilosmorning inetpro 06:33
bduknuvolari: i think the water boil inside your geyser as no cold water is comming in. I would turn the geyser of when no water is comming in as it will damage youre geyser's element when it is boiling.06:33
Kiloshi nextime welcome to #ubuntu-za06:34
Kiloshi bduk 06:34
bduknuvolari: I think it is steam comming out of the hot water tap. Youre geyser is boiling the water as no cold water is comming in. I would switch of the geyser if there is no water comming in as it will burn out the element. 06:37
bdukSorry for replying i couldn't see the first message i posted.06:38
Private_Usermorning all07:14
Kilosgmorning07:14
GolynxMorning 60 eyes 07:16
Kiloshi Golynx 07:16
Private_Userbduk, nuvolari, I have noticed that also happens with cold water taps in some cases. You open water drips then its like suddenly the turbo kicks in with backfiring and boom water is flowing with strong pressure07:17
Private_Userhmm...07:20
Private_User*is wondering what this has to do with ubuntu*07:23
Private_Userprobably the fact that ubuntu is a quality that includes the essential human virtues; compassion and humanity. and we currently not getting that when our water is cut off :(07:23
bdukMabe the cold water pipes got some air inside that must come out first if you open it? If they worked on the pipes?07:24
Private_Userwonder if the municipality will be interested in using ubuntu to provide better service delivery? I am sure there win machines are always crashing hence the reason for delayed and poor service delivery07:25
Private_UserLOL07:25
Kilostheir07:26
Private_UserLOL07:26
Kilosi missed what nuvolari said originally what was the prob07:27
Private_Userjammer oom Kilos 07:27

Kilosai!07:27
Kiloshehe07:27
Kiloshi superfly 07:27
bdukPrivate_User: I also don't like windowzzz but i don't think that you can blame the poor services on that.07:27
superflyhi Kilos07:27
nuvolariok thanks bduk 07:30
nuvolariI've went home and switched off the geyser and turned off the water at the connection07:30
Kilosmost modern geysers are pressure type nuvolari so no water in no water out07:31
Private_UserI don't really have an issue with Windows except for the cost factor and licensing issue, currently I still use it but slowly phasing it out. I am going fully free and open source07:31
Kilosyay07:31
Private_Useralthough I still have my desktop in pieces07:32
Private_Userliterally07:32
bduki agree Private_User also have one pc at home with win on it but only cause my flight simulater is not working with linux. 07:32
Kiloslol mine never has the one side cover on. too many drive changes07:32
Kiloswindows is good for games07:33
bdukYou must just remember to switch it on tonight otherwise youre gonna have a cold bath nuvolari 07:33
Private_Userdoesn't linux have an app to enable you to run windows applications which I assumed included games?07:33
Kiloswine its called but i dont have any success with it07:34
Kilosworks by the fly though07:34
Kilosbut so does everything else07:34
bdukMe and wine also don't understand eachother thats why i must keep the win07:36
GolynxWhy did they make PlayOnLinux , but it still uses wine07:36
Kiloslol07:36
Kilosi think playonlinux you gotta download the games on it07:36
Golynxhmm just seem like a fancy gui installer07:38
nuvolaribduk: already had a cold shower this morning :-/07:38

inetproso Kilos who's gonna win the game in Bloem tonight, what's your prediction?10:56
ThatGraemeGuyi queried something with afrihost and then i got hiccup'd10:57
ThatGraemeGuyi did a downgrade that doesn't seem to have taken properly, think they did a port reset to see if that would fix it10:58
inetprohiccup'd?11:07
ThatGraemeGuyconnection drop11:10
inetproThatGraemeGuy: ai! So now it's fixed or you connect in some other way?11:17
* inetpro suddenly can't watch youtube videos after my upgrade this morning11:17
ThatGraemeGuynot fixed yet, i edited my line from 4mbps to 2mbps on monday and its supposed to take effect in 48 hours. turns out there's some glitch on telkom's side so they'll let me know what happens11:18
inetproaudio is playing fine but the output is all pitch black11:18
ThatGraemeGuyconnections is fine otherwise11:18
Kiloshmm... inetpro what game?11:18
inetproThatGraemeGuy: why downgrading?11:18
inetproKilos: any YouTube videos11:18
Kiloshey?11:19
ThatGraemeGuyi was on 2mbps previously, got bumped to 4, but don't really need 4, so i figured i'd drop down to 2 again and save a bit of cash11:19
Symmetriaurgh how do you survive on 2mbit11:19
ThatGraemeGuyi have a life outside of the internet11:20
ThatGraemeGuybarely use it at home11:20
Kilosoh my inetpro just caught up with the reading11:20
Symmetriawho cares ;p so do I, but there are things you CANNOT do on 2mbit/second which make life *easier*11:20
Kilosinetpro kde?11:20
ThatGraemeGuywell apparently none of those things have any significance to me11:21
Symmetriaheh I would struggle to go back to a 20mbit connection11:21

magespawnbit lost now though17:43
Kiloslol17:44
Kilosthat cisco thing is a server magespawn ?17:44
magespawnno adsl router17:45
Kilosi thought minicom was for mobile devices17:45
Kilosah17:45
Kiloswhat do you want it to do?17:45
magespawnhttp://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/routers/837-adsl-broadband-router/index.html17:46
magespawni want to learn how to configure it17:46
Kiloscant you get into it with your browser17:47
Kilosmy router i configure with the browser17:47
Kilosget the manual for it they explain nicely17:48
magespawnno cisco routers have there own os, and they use a console cable to connect to change settings17:49
Kiloshttps://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/access/800/837/hardware/installation/guide/837HIG.pdf17:49
Kilosoh my17:49
Kiloswhats a console cable17:50
magespawnbut they can do a lot more, and this one is one the one for home or small office17:50
Kilosso eth to all pcs in the area or wifi17:50
KilosSymmetria help magespawn man17:51
magespawnone that connects to the console port on the router, looks similar to a lan cable but the wiring s different and connects to the serial port or through a usb to serial adaptor17:51
Kiloswhat with your pc?17:51
Kilosor just a keyboard and screen17:52
magespawnwell I am using my laptop through the usb17:54
Kilosah17:54
Kiloswhen in doubt read the instruction manual17:55
magespawnindeed apparently you can use a browser to configure the router17:58

Kilosi spose locked branded modems must still be legal18:11
Kilosmaybe for contracts18:11
magespawnokay so no web access to the cisco yet18:15

Kiloswhat error report18:16
magespawni am connected via console18:16
magespawnCan't establish a connection to the server at 10.10.10.118:17
Kilosmaybe it dont work from console and browser same time18:17
magespawnmaybe18:20
magespawnlooks like there might be a problem getting an ip address though18:20
magespawnyup is not assigning ip via DHCP 18:24
Kilosai!18:25
superflymagespawn: you can also try cutecom18:38
superflyit's a Qt based serial terminal18:38
magespawnty superfly will give it a go18:39
