Kiloshi Vince-0 10:37
Vince-0Hi Kilos hows life treating you today10:39
Vince-0skaaps being good??10:39
Vince-0flippen power outages at the office here making my life nice10:39
Kilosyeah digging trenches on and off10:39
Kilospower is a prob in za10:39
magespawni ssh into two different hosts, on two different networks, but they have the same local ip address which creates a problem with the rsa key in the known hosts file10:54
magespawnwhat is the best way to solve this problem?10:54
Kiloschange one hosts ip10:55
Kiloshehe10:55
magespawnand then redo the entire phone setup, not if it can avoided10:55
Kilosuoch10:55
Kilosouch as well10:55
magespawnand to make things more interesting it is a virtual centos system on a windows 7 computer10:57
Kilossjoe10:57
Kiloswhat happens if you  add /24 i think it was to one of the ip's10:57
magespawnand there is a Grandstream GXP4104 on the network too10:58
Kiloswhat is that?10:58
magespawnIP analog gateway11:02
Kilosdoesnt adding /24 make it use the whole range11:03
magespawna device that takes the physical connection from telom/phone company and put it onto  your VoIP network.11:03
Kilosbeen a while since i worried about ip's11:03
magespawns/telom/telkom11:04
magespawni can just remove the old key and then ssh and the new key is added automagically, but since i use both machines regularly i would need to this constantly11:08
magespawnwhat would happen if i ssh into them using the host name defined in /etc/hosts? i would have to manually define them and i would end up with two host name using the same address11:13
magespawntime for coffee11:14
magespawnQA coffee please11:14
QAmagespawn: There isn't a pot on11:14
magespawnQA coffee on11:14

Kilosno maaz and meeting tonight at 20.3011:36
Kilossorry tomorrow night11:36
magespawnmaybe he will be back by then11:40
magespawnhe/she/it11:40
Kiloswe gotta rev the pro to rev the crash kid11:40
Kiloseish magespawn no one even gives you a clue what to do there11:51
Kilosi wonder what happens if you add A or B to and ip11:51
magespawnipv4 only work with numbers 4 sets of 311:53
magespawnlike so xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where x = 0-911:53
magespawn\24 specifies the subnet which also works in the same number scheme11:54
magespawn\24 shows the number of bits used for the subnet mask11:55
magespawnso for example 192.168.1.1\24 is ip 192.168.1.1 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 11:57
magespawnsorry supposed to use / not \11:58
Kilostoo much time on windows that \ habbit11:58
Kiloshabit11:58
magespawnbrain exercise switching from one os to another, did a network wireless ap from a mac the other day11:59
Kilosive never seen a mac so dunno what they are all about12:00
magespawnthis also determines how many network points you can have on the network12:00
magespawnmac os is based on bsd a unix/linux varient12:01
magespawnvariant 12:01
Kiloscant be too bad then12:01
magespawnno relatively straight forward, different keys to do similar actions12:02

Vince-0!13:51
Golynxo/13:51
Kiloswassup Trixar_za 14:50
Kiloshi Golynx 14:50
Trixar_zaJust getting annoyed - how about you Kilos?14:56
Kilosim ok ty14:58
Kilosi didnt enjoy lubuntu or xubuntu14:58
Kiloswbb.. reboot time14:58
Golynxoh hi Kilos :)15:19
=== miles_ is now known as Kilos
Golynxi can understand i dont like Lubuntu, but xubuntu ? hmm15:28
Golynxbut technically i havn't used Xubuntu lol , only ubuntu with Xfce :)15:29
Trixar_zaYeah - trying to compile the latest usb_modeswitch15:30
Trixar_zabut because of some stupid ass things in lubuntu, I can't seem to get it to work15:30
Trixar_zaThis has been reported to compile fine on Ubuntu 13.10 though, so it's probably something Lubuntu's dev broke15:31
kbmonkeyhello15:35
GolynxLubuntu is good for schools with old donated pc's15:37
Golynxhi kbmonkey15:38
Kiloshi kbmonkey  15:42
kbmonkeymeeting tonight folks!15:42
Kilostomorrow night kbmonkey  15:44
Trixar_zaEh, I might just go back to SliTaz15:45
Trixar_zaThis is a pain in the ass to fix15:45
kbmonkeygotcha Kilos, I see the google calendar reminder says it is tonight.15:45
Golynxaint the meeting always on a Tuesday night15:46
Kiloshmm... sue inetpro  15:46
kbmonkeynah, the pro did not create this event, I will contact the creator15:48
Trixar_zaAlso: Lubuntu - takes about 1 hour to install15:48
Kilosdont you get the email from g+15:48
Trixar_zaSliTaz: 5 minutes15:48
Golynxi mean on the last Tuesday of every month15:48
Kilosi got one 2 days ago announcing the meet but didnt check what day15:48
KilosTrixar_za  why you using lubuntu anyway you were always a slitaz peep15:49
Trixar_zaWanted to create a build enviroment for sakis3g15:50
Golynxhmm you know there will be a meeting but dont know when lol15:50
Trixar_zaTotal fail with Lubuntu though >.>15:50
Trixar_zaOn the upside - Lubutu did come with most of the codecs you can ever need pre-installed15:50
GolynxKilos: what did you not like about xubuntu15:51
Golynxa little screenshot of my xubuntu http://picpaste.com/scr-10bwtrfN.jpg15:52
Kilosi coundnt get sound working for starters 15:52
Kilosand there were other little things15:52
Golynxi'm satisfied :)15:52
Golynxsound works perfect on mine though15:53
Kilosya ive always had sound hassles15:53
Golynxi can even make complex sound effects and tone generations 15:53
Kilosbut with this new pc i expected everything to just work15:54
Kilosbut now xchat hasnt got sound15:54
Golynxoh i see15:54
Trixar_zaKilos: Yeah like the scanlines resolution it kept defaulting to - it still does so if I press ctrl+alt+f1. Then there is the compiling issue and how a whole 3GB just disappeared into the ether.15:54
Golynxthat sounds like a sound card software issue maybe15:54
Kiloseeeek15:55
Trixar_zaWhile I like the interface - there is minor issues that make me hate it - the hexchat thing on the taskbar is also annoying15:55
Kilosami Trixar_za  i have the d-link working on three drives15:56
Kilosdisable network in nm then use sakis3g to only switch modem then enable networking again and nm sees the dwm-15615:57
Kilosbut draisburgerfof okes say it works and dont answer posts15:57
Trixar_zaActually I like network manager15:58
Kilosso when is the new sakis available15:59
Kilosya nm rocks15:59
Trixar_zaworks great with my cellphone when I plug it in with the usb cable15:59
Trixar_zaJust click 8ta.default and it connects me15:59
Trixar_zaSlight bitch with the 3g modem though, but sakis3g seems to still work for me15:59
Kilosya but not with the new telkom modem15:59
Kilossakis works here still but then evo and pidgin dont connect16:00
Trixar_zaThat's weird16:00
Trixar_zaOh right16:00
Kilosi want a sakis3g that dont go the APN_PASS stuff16:00
Trixar_zaif I use sakis3g I can't use firefox until I turn off offline mode16:01
Trixar_zaI disabled the 'helpful' lubuntu extension and that solved the problem...16:01
Kilosbut anyway it looks to me like the telkom modem is missing something that triggers modeswitch16:01
Kilosi also tried using 2 modems and the old one trigger modeswitch then nm could see and connect with bot16:02
Kilosboth16:02
Trixar_zaI wonder if I'm missing a setting in sakis3g for telkom mobile16:04
Trixar_zaLike the network code or something16:05
Kilosi got it connected with sakis16:06
Kilossakis works16:06
Kilosonly evo and pidgin and having to enter the APN_PASS and the other command is painful16:07
KilosAPN_USER16:07
Trixar_zaNope - they use the same code16:10
Trixar_zaWhat happens if you change the proxy setting in pidgin from noproxy to system default?16:12
Kilosstill dont connect16:12
Trixar_zaWeird16:12
Kilosbut nm works lekker so sakis is my backup like for a new install i can still get online for updating upgrading16:13
Kiloshi not_found  16:18
Kilosthe sound works on other things Golynx  16:19
Kilospidgin sound works fine but xchat dont16:19
not_foundinstall mplayer and use that to play xchat sounds16:20
not_foundhi uncle Kilos16:20
Kilosi have not_found  16:20
Kilossill no sound16:20
Golynxoh okay Kilos16:20
Golynxhi not_found16:21
not_foundthat is strange then16:21
not_foundhi Golynx16:21
Kilosunless i use mplayer and point it too /usr/share/sounds/bell.ogg but them no bell.ogg just a heavy static noise like when tv signal dies16:21
Kilosbut konversation sound works lekker16:22
Golynxhmm xchat sound not working in mine either16:23
Kilosyou gotta go to settings alerts an tick the top 2 rows and next 2 rows the last 2 blocks16:24
Kilospreferences i think it be called16:25
Golynxmine only plays the custom sounds , not the default list16:25
Kilosyou hear a bloep?16:25
Kilosbell.ogg16:26
KilosGolynx  16:26
Golynxnope, none of the default sounds play, only when i load custom sounds it works16:26
Kilosai! it used to work so lekker16:27
not_foundI have seen a number of people start to use hexchat instead of xchat16:27
Kilosi have same probs with hexchat16:28
Golynxbut i never use xchat though16:28
Kilosxchat very lekker16:29
Golynxthere may  be other irc clients that will work16:29
Kilosstill think its the best irc client when you get sound working16:29
GolynxDid you try the option - External sound playing program : ?16:31
Kilosyeah konversation works here but its an extra 230 meg space used on drive and takes long to show who is online16:31
Kilosyip16:31
Kilosthat when i get the static noise instead of sound16:31
Golynxoh , maybe there is a player out there that will work16:32
not_foundI always get static until I specify mplayer to be used as an external player16:32
not_foundI would imagine one could even specify something like vlc16:32
Kilosonly thing i dont like about konversation is that after disconnecting scroll backs go kinda gray16:33
Kilosso no highlighted nicks and so on. makes it hard to find things in scrollback16:34
not_foundhow about quassel? it is the default irc for kubuntu?16:35
Kilosi dont get sound with quassel running on unity16:37
not_foundhmmm, perhaps install pavucontrol or run alsa-mixer and make sure all the relevant sound sliders are up16:39
Kilosill try quassel on kde when i get to that drive again16:39
Kiloskonversation lekker here atm 16:40
Kilosand ctrl+r underlines 16:40
Kilos so you know where you left off16:40
not_foundmost clients does that automatically if you aren't reading the specific channel it underlines (I know #ubuntu-za often doesn't which is strange however)16:43
Kilosya but thats if you in some other app or channel here i can underline and leave this channel open16:45
not_foundI guess16:49
not_foundeveryone has a work flow that works for them :)16:49
Kiloslol ya when im digging outside sometimes there is lots to catch up on16:50
magespawngood evening16:58

magespawngood night all18:17

Kiloshi Private_User  18:55
ThatGraemeGuyyeah, i have to push a few buttons at 9, confirm with client nothing broke and then go sleep off this cold i got :-/18:55
Kiloseish18:56
Private_Userhey Kilos18:56
Kilosnight guys. sleep tight. dont forget tomorrow nights meeting please19:27
smile:)19:47
Private_Userevening all22:27
Private_Useror should I say morning :)22:27
not_foundmorning sounds about right Private_User :)22:28
Private_Userhey not_found, hows it going22:29
not_foundfine thanks and yourself?22:29
Private_Usernot too bad22:29
not_foundgood to hear :)22:29
Private_Userstill trying to figure out what else could be causing my internet connectivity issues on my vista machine and my lubuntu machine is still in pieces since I need to get some thermal paste to put it back together22:31
not_foundsucks22:31
Private_Usertried everything so far using anti spyware and malware software which they seem to have found an cleared. Connectivity seems to be better but still not 100%22:32
not_foundif it was me I would nuke the windows install and re-install22:32
Private_Userand its very random so not sure what else to check cause the service provider says all issues on their side resolved22:32
Private_Userwish I could but I do not have a copy of it22:33
not_foundoops22:33
Private_UserI was thinking of just cleaning and installing ubuntu on this machine as well but not sure since I might need to work on windows in case I gets some work where a client requires it22:35
Private_Userdo you know if I install ubuntu on a Virtual PC will what ever is causing the internet issue on the host affect the virtual PC?22:36
not_foundyup, the virtual machine is fully at the mercy of the host...22:36
Private_User:(22:36
not_foundexcept if there was a specific application or something causing the issue on Windows, and if you then didn't run it obviously you won't have the issue22:37
Private_Userok let me try that and it also gives me another idea...22:38
Private_Userif I boot the laptop using the live ubuntu image can I test using that?22:38
Private_Userthen I probably will be able to determine if it is my machine or the ISP22:39
not_foundyes that can work22:39
Private_Usergreat let me start with install the Virtual machine first, would you say ubuntu will work fine on this machine (Intel Pentium Dual Core 2.17GHz, 2GB RAM) or should I use Lubuntu?22:41
not_foundubuntu will work... give at least 1gb to the virtual machine22:42
Private_Userok cool thanks22:43
Private_Userwhat about video memory?22:57
not_foundthe default should be fine...22:58
not_foundI always bump it up to 12822:58
Private_Userthanks but the max I get is 12822:59
Private_Userand the default is currently 12MB23:00
not_foundthat is the max yes23:00
Private_Userso if I change it will it affect the host?23:00
not_founddefault will work, 128 will also work ... and I can vouch for 128 :p23:00
not_foundnot really23:00
Private_Userok then I change it to 12823:00
Private_User:D23:00
not_foundafaik it uses conventional ram and not video ram23:00
not_foundthat is one of the reasons virtual machines suck for gaming23:01
Private_Userok then I will leave as defaukt for now and will change it later if need be23:02
Private_User*default23:02
