Kiloshi Tonberry Rynomster 09:49
KilosMaaz, hello09:49
* Maaz waves to Kilos09:49
Golynx_hi Kilos09:53
Golynx_its that nasty password popup i wana avoid lol09:54
Kilosubuntu wants password all the time09:54
Kiloswhich one is hassling you09:54
Golynx_the freenode one09:56
Kilosyou set it in your client09:56
Kilosoh you on opera?09:56
Golynx_i know it works, but i got other nicks too on freenode09:57
Kilosyou using opera or an irc client09:57
Golynx_yeah09:58
Kiloswith a client you enter passwords in the setup and it works on all freenode channels09:58
Kilosand you can group all your nicks 09:59
Golynx_i dunno mine lists seperate freenode instances but force same passwords for all10:00
Golynx_maybe a bug10:00
Kilosjust try hexchat so you can do the setup10:00
Kilosits in the repos10:00
Kilosyou still doing everything on one workspace?10:01
Golynx_no i want it in opera10:07
Golynx_i will download again and see if it fixes it10:07
Kilosjust the setup so it reconises you everytime10:07
Golynx_yeah i'm always on one workspace 10:08
Kilosrecognises10:08
Golynx_i already do that, but not working for my other accounts10:08
Kilosai!10:09
Kiloshow do you use irc in opera?10:09
Golynx_ok will reinstall opera now10:10
Golynx_wbb10:10
Kiloshmm...10:11
Golynxfinally all accounts works , You are now identified for Gotango.10:22
Kiloswhich freenode do you use in opera10:22
Golynxi think a reinstall is the same as slaping a tv that dont wana work right lol10:23
Kilosoften reinstall adds a bit10:23
Golynxkilos what you mean ?10:23
Golynxthere is only one freenode10:23
Kilosim trying to setup irc in opera and the freenodes are in uk and other places10:24
Golynxi usually choose the European servers10:24
Kilosfreenode-europe north america oceania etc10:24
Kilosclients just use freenode10:25
Golynxby me it shows Freenode - Europe (1)10:25
Kilosoh it runs on an opera server10:26
Golynxbut if you want any freenode server just choose one like roddenberry.freenode.net and others10:26
Kilosthe clients choose for you and when one goes down you move to another automatically10:27
Golynxif opera cant connect with the default server it skips to other EU servers in the list like irc.eu.freenode.net, saberhagen.freenode.net, kornbluth.freenode.net, sterling.freenode.net, adams.freenode.net, tolkien.freenode.net, calvino.freenode.net, leguin.freenode.net, burroughs.freenode.net10:28
Golynxya10:28
Kilosna i dont want to use their server10:29
Golynxlol its not opera its just a irc client inside opera10:30
Kilostoo much schlep to setup. 10:30
Golynxif you want to use the opera irc then you can choose that besides freenode and dalnet 10:30
Kilosinstalled client much better10:31
Golynxsure different strokes for different folks :)10:31
Kiloswindows syndrome10:32
Kiloseverything is on one desktop so try get as much as possible to work with one app10:32
Golynxwindows also got workspaces10:33
Golynxi dont see a real use for them though10:33
Kilosive only ever seen the one desktop on windows10:34
Kilosand everything minimised there10:34
Golynxmine had a new desktop chooser at the taskbar. Dunno if the previous owner of the lappy installed it.10:35
Kilosah10:36
Golynxi just like seeing what i'm working on infront of me. I could easily forget something important thats on another workspace10:38
Kilosoh dont things flash to get your attention10:38
Golynxso i just list all my windows in the taskbar below, and can see what i'm working on and what programs are using them10:38
Kilosthats also why i use sound alerts10:39
Kilosdoesnt xubuntu have a workspace switcher?10:39
Golynxalerts are for programs like Irc clients though10:39
Golynxyeah i removed it :)10:39
Kilosthe different ones should light up when something is activated there10:40
Kilosai!10:40
Golynxhmm, if i got a browser opened in one workspace and text editor in the other. When will i get alerted ?10:41
Kiloswhen something happens there10:42
Golynxi dont understand what you mean by alerts Kilos10:42
Kilosyou also can get small text popups to show incoming messages etc10:42
Kilossound10:42
Kilosum10:42
Kilosbell.ogg10:42
Kilosyou can set them in irc clients to bleep when your nick is mentioned or with all channel messages etc10:43
Golynxmost of what i do dont dont have events that fire off at set intervals or dynamically informing of something that happened by way of an alert.10:43
Golynxmost of what i do is static. 10:44
Kilosso what tells you someone has used your nick here10:44
Kilosor you have a new email10:44
Golynxa workspace i dont get the point , unless you got 50 programs and windows open10:44
Kilosor another im client needs attention10:44
Golynxi register the nicks i use in irc, np there 10:46
Kilosoh dont you chat on mxit or aim or gtalk etc10:47
Golynxi usually manually check my mail , but nothing important enough from where i am now to check so often.10:47
Golynxyeah pidgin and other chat clients are opened too10:48
Kilosi have pidgin on its own workspace and evolution mail client on one and hexchat on one and can do other stuff on the other 610:49
Kiloshehe10:49
Golynxgood for you :)10:50
Kilosits easier for me10:50
Golynxmaybe someday when i got too much stuff opened i will do the workspace thing, but now just the one is fine for me10:53
Kiloshehe10:53
Kiloshorses for courses10:53
Kilosbut why ride a carthorse if you can ride an arab10:54
Golynxlol10:55
RynomsterHi Kilos11:19
Rynomsterwas out11:19
Kilosnp11:19
Trixar_zaSo... I figure out the problem with the new database16:45
Trixar_zaNo default vendor/product ID given. Abort16:45
Kiloson what?16:46
Trixar_zaDumbass programmer of usb_modeswitch16:46
Kilosmake it force a way in16:46
Kilosyou should join their team Trixar_za and point out the errors16:46
Trixar_zaI'm thinking of one16:48
Trixar_zaIf I can introduce the default vendor and product id manually, I can probably make it work with just the binary without having to drag tcl with the damn script16:48
Kilosgood16:51
Trixar_zaStill a pain though16:51
Kiloswork it out and then enter it as a debian package16:51
Kilosthere was a way to do that but i had the info about 10 installs back16:52
Kiloshttp://developer.ubuntu.com/2012/02/how-to-prepare-a-compiled-application-for-ubuntu-software-center/16:53
Trixar_zabrb16:55
Trixar_zaIt works as long as you do it as root17:00
Kilosoh i had to run the new one here as root as well17:00
Kilosthe desktop shortcut didnt work17:01
Kilosbut modeswitch is a root thing isnt it17:01
Trixar_zaYeah17:11
Trixar_zaI think maybe the yad addition causes the failure to run gksu17:11
Trixar_zaso I just removed that code again17:11
captineevening all17:25
Kiloshi captine 17:25
* Trixar_za mumbles18:22
Trixar_zaSo I made it able to switch the device18:23
Trixar_za... but for some reason it can't find the interface now18:23
Kiloseish18:23
Trixar_zaInteresting18:34
Trixar_zaWorks with the pre-libusb-1.x version18:34
Kilosthse modem are terrible things18:45
Trixar_zaMore usb_modeswitch is18:47
Trixar_zatrying it with the last good db and the latest usb_modeswitch binary18:47
Trixar_zabrb18:47
