Kilos | hi Xethron | 06:17 |
Spekko | morning Kilos and others | 06:18 |
Kilos | have you fixed it yet | 06:18 |
Spekko | Maaz should have a greet all method | 06:18 |
Spekko | hmm me ? | 06:18 |
jabberwocky93 | more Kilos :-) | 06:18 |
Kilos | no Xethron | 06:19 |
Spekko | aaah | 06:19 |
Kilos | his lappy keeps crashing | 06:19 |
Spekko | Which laptop does he have ? | 06:20 |
Xethron | haha | 06:20 |
Xethron | Acer | 06:20 |
jabberwocky93 | must be a telkom laptop :P | 06:20 |
Xethron | hahaha | 06:20 |
Spekko | rofl! | 06:20 |
Kilos | hi Xethron ideas man | 06:20 |
Xethron | Nope, thats why I want a new one | 06:20 |
Spekko | Did it start crashing after 14.04 > | 06:21 |
Spekko | ? | 06:21 |
Kilos | did you see the link for ubuntu pcs | 06:21 |
Xethron | I was looking at system76, but its R2,000.00 for shipping | 06:21 |
Kilos | they expensive but all ubuntu | 06:21 |
Kilos | ouch | 06:21 |
Kilos | ok lets try sort yours | 06:21 |
Kilos | first how old is the drive | 06:21 |
Xethron | Spekko: Nope, since I put Linux on it | 06:22 |
Xethron | Kilos: If it was the drive, I would get an error and not a complete crash | 06:22 |
Xethron | I assume it could be the RAM | 06:22 |
Xethron | But then I assume it should be total RAM failure | 06:23 |
jabberwocky93 | Xethron: anything useful in the syslogs? | 06:23 |
Kilos | yes ram too but easy to check the drive | 06:23 |
Xethron | jabberwocky93: nope, nothing | 06:23 |
Kilos | i kept crashing here and it was the drive | 06:23 |
Spekko | Xethron: How old is the machine ? | 06:23 |
Kilos | lemme find a command | 06:23 |
Xethron | Kilos: yes, but mine doesn't crash, it freezes solid. Screen still looks fine, but it freezes | 06:23 |
Xethron | Nothing moves, not even sysRq Reboot works | 06:24 |
jabberwocky93 | use the live iso and run the mem test on it for a few hours | 06:24 |
Kilos | ya thats what mine did too | 06:24 |
Xethron | Kilos: and it was the drive? You sure? | 06:24 |
Kilos | had to boot again | 06:24 |
Xethron | I thought a drive would spout errors as the system runs in memory........ | 06:25 |
Kilos | yes i now run windows on the first 30g and ubuntu on the rest and no probs | 06:25 |
jabberwocky93 | Xethron: ah so you know about Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring :P | 06:25 |
Kilos | got some bad blocks in the first 30g | 06:25 |
Xethron | jabberwocky93: hahaha, I didn't know the rhyme, but thats pretty cool :P | 06:25 |
Kilos | but there are commands to sort and not use bad blocks | 06:25 |
Xethron | As a PHP dev, I'll just change it to ElePHPants :P | 06:26 |
Kilos | sudo badblocks -v /dev/sda1 > bad-blocks-result | 06:27 |
Private_User | morning all | 06:27 |
Xethron | Kilos: but I'll have to run that with a live CD right? | 06:27 |
Kilos | hi Private_User | 06:27 |
Kilos | no i ran it on the pc | 06:27 |
Private_User | hi Kilos | 06:28 |
Kilos | there are extra commands that tell it not to use bad blocks found | 06:28 |
Private_User | hi jabberwocky93, Spekko, Xethron, | 06:28 |
jabberwocky93 | hehe @ elephpants | 06:28 |
jabberwocky93 | morning Private_User | 06:28 |
Private_User | just read above, you guys sure its not an issue in the BIOS? | 06:29 |
Private_User | when I check my CMOS settings there is an option there about the OS on the drive | 06:29 |
Spekko | Morning Private_User | 06:30 |
* Spekko salutes Private_User | 06:30 | |
Private_User | at ease soldier | 06:30 |
Kilos | http://slexy.org/view/s21z8J8GUh | 06:30 |
Private_User | :D | 06:30 |
jabberwocky93 | yeah if SysRq doesn't help it must be something related to cpu/ram/mobo | 06:31 |
jabberwocky93 | I had an old server also crashing now and then, after many many hours of trial and error replacing some of the caps on the motherboard solved the problem | 06:32 |
Kilos | how do you find which caps are the problem ones | 06:33 |
Kilos | oh my peer got him | 06:34 |
jabberwocky93 | Kilos: that was the good work of Active Systems, a small PC shop in stellenbosch | 06:40 |
superfly | aloha | 06:40 |
Kilos | hi superfly | 06:40 |
Kilos | ah | 06:40 |
jabberwocky93 | I can do some tricks with a solder, just about anything except actual soldering | 06:41 |
Kilos | i dont remember where i found it , just know i use it on all my old drives | 06:41 |
Kilos | just know that linux is much more sensitive to dicey drives than windows is | 06:42 |
Kilos | lol jabberwocky93 what you mean by tricks with a solder? | 06:46 |
Kilos | i asked how you identify the bad caps | 06:47 |
Kilos | ai! | 06:54 |

charl_ | hi Golynx | 07:38 |
Golynx | hi charl_ | 07:38 |
charl_ | hi jabberwocky93 | 07:38 |
Golynx | ff29 looks like chrome | 07:39 |

jabberwocky93 | hi charl_ | 07:40 |
Golynx | hi jabberwocky93 | 07:41 |
charl_ | yeah | 07:45 |

Kilos | Maaz tell inetpro Fix it man | 08:05 |
Maaz | Kilos: Sure, I'll tell inetpro on freenode | 08:05 |
Private_User | hey anybody heard of a company called gTeam previously? | 08:38 |
charl_ | hi theblazehen | 09:36 |
theblazehen | hi charl_ | 09:36 |
ThatGraemeGuy | You have to download a total of 803 M. This download will take about 11 hours with your connection. | 09:40 |
ThatGraemeGuy | aawww :-( | 09:40 |
charl_ | whow ! you on 3g? | 09:42 |
ThatGraemeGuy | no adsl | 09:43 |
ThatGraemeGuy | compare to http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2014/04/17/%23ubuntu-za.txt | 09:45 |
ThatGraemeGuy | [12:02] <ThatGraemeGuy> You have to download a total of 1 290 M. This download will take about 23 minutes with your connection. | 09:45 |
ThatGraemeGuy | hence "aawww :-(" | 09:45 |
Kilos | eina that sucks | 09:49 |
charl_ | will probably take half a minute here | 09:59 |
charl_ | i see ipv6 privacy extensions work again on 14.04 | 10:05 |
charl_ | for some reason it was broken on 13.10 | 10:05 |
charl_ | it works perfectly under debian 7 too | 10:05 |
charl_ | the problem with debian7 is that it accumulates more and more ipv6 addresses until you have like 10 of them | 10:05 |
charl_ | it seems ubuntu is better at managing it now | 10:06 |
nuvolari | o/ lew | 10:50 |
Vince-0 | 0// | 10:51 |
Kilos | lo nuvolari | 10:52 |
theblazehen | hi nuvolari Vince-0 Kilos | 10:55 |

Squirm- | and you can build things | 14:09 |
ThatGraemeGuy | ah | 14:11 |

superfly | Squirm-: i think it's about 20 minutes | 14:26 |
superfly | I can change that to longer | 14:26 |
theblazehen | Kilos: Can you click away from the grid? | 14:51 |
Kilos | to do what | 14:51 |
theblazehen | Close crafting table in minecraft | 14:51 |
Kilos | when the grid shows i cant click anywhere else | 14:52 |
Kilos | is minetest and minecraft the same thing | 14:52 |
Golynx | hi theblazehen , bushtech | 14:53 |

Kilos | wb inetpro plustwo Mzolisto | 15:18 |
Kilos | what did you guys break | 15:18 |
inetpro | ai! | 15:19 |
superfly | theblazehen: we're playing minetest - an open source minecraft clone | 16:59 |
theblazehen | superfly: ah, kk | 17:03 |
theblazehen | On a server? | 17:03 |
superfly | yep, I'm running a server | 17:04 |
theblazehen | superfly: cool. Url? | 17:06 |
superfly | theblazehen: pm'ed you | 17:06 |
theblazehen | superfly: ty. will go on later | 17:07 |
theblazehen | Download almost done | 17:15 |
theblazehen | charl_: you got IPv6? Nice! | 17:15 |
superfly | theblazehen: he's in the netherlands, I think, so it's kinda expected | 17:23 |
theblazehen | superfly: true. I'm on the server BTW | 17:23 |
theblazehen | hi spinza | 17:30 |
theblazehen | 9 minutes left of my Office download :( | 17:34 |
superfly | theblazehen: cool | 17:34 |
theblazehen | It means I'm gonna have to do work :/ | 17:34 |
charl_ | theblazehen: i've been irc'ing over ipv6 for at least 5 years yes | 17:40 |
* theblazehen is jealous | 17:40 | |
charl_ | don't be, if you don't have native ipv6 yet go grab a tunnel :P | 17:41 |
charl_ | there's teredo/miredo, aiccu/sixxs, 6in4/he, 6to4, etc etc | 17:42 |
theblazehen | charl_: good idea | 17:42 |
charl_ | my cable provider is running behind the times and also does not have native ipv6 yet on the network | 17:43 |
charl_ | they promise every year that they will roll it out and then it becomes the next year | 17:43 |
charl_ | at work we have had dual stack for a long time though | 17:43 |
charl_ | they are even running it it on the wlan now | 17:43 |
Kilos | looks like inetpro has serious probs | 17:44 |
theblazehen | Kilos: hmm? | 17:44 |
superfly | anyone still using firefox? any thoughts on the new interface? | 17:46 |
charl_ | superfly: *still* using? what are you using then? chromium? | 17:47 |
charl_ | i think it's quite nice personally | 17:47 |
superfly | charl_: nope, but a lot of folks have moved to chromium/chrome | 17:47 |
superfly | I still prefer firefox | 17:47 |
charl_ | lol | 17:47 |
charl_ | me too :P | 17:47 |
theblazehen | I'm using FF with a custom userChrome.css and tree style tabs.. I'm not ready to -Syu yet :( | 17:48 |
theblazehen | Fuck it, I'll stick with 28 | 17:48 |
hibana | ai! | 18:16 |
Kilos | hi hibana wb | 18:17 |
Kilos | what broke | 18:17 |
hibana | Kilos: at what time did we loose inetpro? | 18:17 |
hibana | again | 18:17 |
Kilos | early | 18:17 |
hibana | nee man, serious!? | 18:17 |
Kilos | 08.48 | 18:18 |
Kilos | is that serious enough | 18:18 |
hibana | Kilos: no this evening | 18:18 |
Kilos | been back for a bit | 18:18 |
Kilos | oh | 18:18 |
Kilos | 19.42 | 18:19 |
* hibana gets home thinking everything is hunkydory again only to test and see we're down again | 18:19 | |
hibana | what a day? | 18:19 |
hibana | this is not fun | 18:19 |
Kilos | whats happening there | 18:19 |
hibana | the whole DC lost power | 18:20 |
Kilos | hackers cracking you or crackers hacking you | 18:20 |
Kilos | power as in electricity | 18:20 |
hibana | yebo yes, UPS power issues nogal, as far as I understand | 18:20 |
Kilos | sjoe | 18:20 |
hibana | servers need power to run | 18:21 |
Kilos | strange to get power cuts in town | 18:21 |
hibana | not city power | 18:22 |
Kilos | probs in the building? | 18:23 |
theblazehen | I keep getting power cuts :( It kills my uptime :/ | 18:23 |
theblazehen | 20:22:35 up 12:54, 3 users, load average: 5.09, 4.79, 4.98 | 18:23 |
Kilos | power becoming a serious issue in za | 18:26 |
hibana | I see even MyBroadband tearing us apart with "Gov.za tango down" | 18:26 |
hibana | http://mybroadband.co.za/news/internet/101496-gov-za-tango-down.html | 18:26 |
hibana | this is not fun man | 18:27 |
hibana | not sure exactly what the problem is but I sure hope they are putting a proper solution to prevent this from happening again | 18:27 |
Kilos | sjoe | 18:28 |
Kilos | do the server boot auto maticcaly when power returns? | 18:29 |
Kilos | srevers | 18:29 |
Kilos | servers | 18:29 |
charl_ | the article doesn't look so bad to me | 18:30 |
hibana | some systems are robust and can handle power failures but others can be very fragile | 18:30 |
charl_ | would hardly classify as "tearing" you apart imho | 18:31 |
* hibana feels better now | 18:31 | |
hibana | charl_: thanks | 18:31 |
charl_ | :) | 18:31 |
charl_ | i know, from the inside it feels much harder :) | 18:31 |
* hibana feeling 10 years older after today | 18:33 | |
Kilos | ai! | 18:33 |
theblazehen | http://neo900.org/ Can't wait for the release of this! | 18:35 |
hibana | theblazehen: wow, that sounds awesome | 18:38 |
theblazehen | As soon as I can get them to accept bitcoin, and I've made enough to pay for one, I'm buying one | 18:38 |
hibana | hope it can compete with the likes of the Note 3 | 18:38 |
theblazehen | nope, it wont | 18:39 |
hibana | ai! | 18:39 |
theblazehen | But it IS a kinda small job | 18:39 |
theblazehen | http://neo900.org/specs | 18:39 |
* hibana would love to see something where the height of the screen is as wide as an A4 page | 18:40 | |
hibana | and a physical keyboard would always be a bonus | 18:41 |
Kilos | and as you get older it must get bigger | 18:41 |
theblazehen | Kilos: As long as you can see the pixels. I feel the pixels on the ipad etc. are wasted as you cant use them all, becuase if you make fonts that small you can't really read it | 18:42 |
Kilos | haha i battle to read lots of stuff here | 18:43 |
theblazehen | http://i.imgur.com/ocEstXc.png for reference: My display | 18:43 |
Kilos | need to ctrl+ a few times | 18:43 |
theblazehen | I like small fonts, and I cannot lie.. | 18:43 |
Kilos | i canr read any of that | 18:44 |
Kilos | cant | 18:44 |
theblazehen | zoom in, lol | 18:44 |
charl_ | theblazehen: which wm is that? | 18:44 |
theblazehen | charl_: awesomewm | 18:44 |
theblazehen | Wanna switch to i3 soon | 18:44 |
theblazehen | maybe when I move to my netbook | 18:44 |
theblazehen | And use this machine as a VM host | 18:45 |
Kilos | how you zoom in | 18:45 |
theblazehen | kilos: ctrl + mouse wheel up | 18:45 |
charl_ | i've been using i3 for almost a year now | 18:45 |
charl_ | very happy with it | 18:45 |
Kilos | mouse whell dont work | 18:45 |
charl_ | i see you're using python, nice | 18:45 |
theblazehen | charl_: great to hear. Using dmenu for menu, etc? | 18:45 |
theblazehen | yeah, python is good | 18:45 |
theblazehen | Kilos: try ctrl and + ? | 18:45 |
charl_ | standard i3 menu yes | 18:45 |
charl_ | whatever it is called :) | 18:46 |
Kilos | if i ctrl+ 3 times i can read | 18:46 |
theblazehen | charl_: I just don't like the title bars. But I'm sure I can remove them | 18:46 |
theblazehen | Not sure if I shouldn't just get w3m, and do it all in tmux though | 18:46 |
charl_ | which editor are you using? | 18:46 |
theblazehen | I really like tmux | 18:46 |
theblazehen | vim! of course | 18:46 |
charl_ | ah i see | 18:46 |
charl_ | i was about to say it doesn't look like vim | 18:47 |
charl_ | but i guess you have a lot of options set | 18:47 |
theblazehen | yeah, mainly powerline | 18:47 |
charl_ | ah here is a good question | 18:47 |
charl_ | terminal emulator - which one | 18:47 |
theblazehen | charl_: xterm | 18:48 |
theblazehen | I like it as it's small, and it doesn't have a scrollbar like urxvt | 18:48 |
hibana | how much power can one get out of a rack mountable UPS device? | 18:48 |
charl_ | interesting | 18:48 |
charl_ | sorry i promise, last question | 18:49 |
charl_ | which font is that ? | 18:49 |
theblazehen | nah, It keeps me away from working :) | 18:49 |
theblazehen | gimme a sec | 18:49 |
theblazehen | Source Code Pro patched for powerline | 18:49 |
Kilos | i go sllep now | 18:49 |
theblazehen | cya Kilos | 18:49 |
Kilos | good luck hibana | 18:49 |
Kilos | sleep tight all | 18:49 |
hibana | thanks Kilos, good night | 18:50 |
hibana | hmm | 18:50 |
theblazehen | charl_: Also using monokai for the colours | 18:50 |
charl_ | ah | 18:51 |
charl_ | thanks i'll check those out | 18:51 |
theblazehen | kk | 18:51 |
charl_ | very interesting :) | 18:51 |
theblazehen | and if you haven't already, check out tmux too. ty :) | 18:51 |
theblazehen | I'll share any dotfiles if you want, should be easy to figure out though | 18:52 |
charl_ | i'm using byobu which uses tmux in the background | 18:53 |
charl_ | but yes tmux is awesome | 18:53 |
charl_ | but i was particularly interested in the font | 18:53 |
theblazehen | charl_: Have you had a look at Termsyn? Also a good font | 18:54 |
theblazehen | Which font do you currently use? | 18:54 |
charl_ | i'm using the standard courier 10 pitch which ships with ubuntu | 18:55 |
theblazehen | Also how is byobu better than tmux? Looking at screenshots it kinda looks worse.. | 18:55 |
charl_ | not a bad font per se but it could be better | 18:55 |
theblazehen | ah, kk | 18:55 |
charl_ | byobu is just a layer around tmux, it's stupidly simple to configure tmux | 18:55 |
charl_ | and the default settings are quite good | 18:56 |
theblazehen | have you tried tmux alone? Also sane defaults, quite.. ok | 18:56 |
charl_ | yes i used to use it straight before switching to byobu | 18:58 |
charl_ | before that i used screen for many many years | 18:58 |
theblazehen | ok, guess I'll try it out then | 18:58 |
charl_ | ooh source code pro looks nice | 18:59 |
charl_ | just switched to it now | 18:59 |
charl_ | theblazehen: if you're happy with your current tmux configuration, i wouldn't spend too much time on it | 19:01 |
theblazehen | great :) | 19:01 |
theblazehen | Hmm.. Need to find thin client software that support multi monitors | 19:01 |
theblazehen | charl_: yeah | 19:01 |
charl_ | i'm quite a big screen multiplexing user, even though i use a tiling wm i don't actually tile much | 19:02 |
theblazehen | heh, same here | 19:02 |
charl_ | i'm one of those people, i like to have one thing on my screen at a time | 19:02 |
charl_ | so what i do is i mostly use i3 in tabs mode | 19:03 |
theblazehen | tabs mode? | 19:03 |
charl_ | and inside a terminal emulator i rapidly switch windows or whatever they are called again inside a terminal multiplexer | 19:03 |
charl_ | yeah meta+w | 19:03 |
charl_ | or whatever it was called again :) | 19:04 |
charl_ | i don't know what all these things are called i just use them :P lol | 19:04 |
theblazehen | What I do is have a few browsers open each on a workspace, and then a few terminal multiplexers open on the other workspaces | 19:04 |
charl_ | yeah i love workspaces | 19:04 |
theblazehen | currently have 3 tmux "windows", with "tabs" inside them | 19:04 |
theblazehen | Dunno how to explain better | 19:04 |
charl_ | yeah lol | 19:05 |
charl_ | nice | 19:05 |
charl_ | it becomes crazy | 19:05 |
theblazehen | tmux ls | wc -l | 19:05 |
theblazehen | 3 | 19:05 |
theblazehen | Not too bad I suppose, but this is just my local machine.. | 19:05 |
charl_ | ah byobu "wants" to run once | 19:05 |
charl_ | it makes it easy on the one side but limits you on the other | 19:06 |
theblazehen | heh, ok | 19:06 |
charl_ | but i always only have one "instance" of it running it any case, so i don't care | 19:06 |
charl_ | so it actually makes it easier for me | 19:06 |
theblazehen | Sometimes I even run X in different TTY's | 19:06 |
theblazehen | yeah | 19:06 |
charl_ | lol | 19:06 |
charl_ | never attempted that | 19:06 |
theblazehen | Quite useful | 19:06 |
theblazehen | Especially when trying a new WM | 19:06 |
theblazehen | Or multi-users | 19:07 |
theblazehen | I'll miss it :( | 19:08 |
theblazehen | Powerpoint title slide complete: Guess thats enough work for today! | 19:09 |
charl_ | have a good evening all | 19:35 |
=== hibana_ is now known as hibana | ||
theblazehen | I just tried to make a 4 space tab in powerpoint.. Turns out bullets don't work that way | 20:00 |
* inetpro breathing again | 20:21 | |
theblazehen | wb inetpro | 20:22 |
theblazehen | troubles? | 20:22 |
inetpro | power back up in the DC | 20:22 |
theblazehen | great | 20:22 |
inetpro | not sure what the sparky did but I hope he has fixed the issues properly for once and for all | 20:25 |
theblazehen | http://i.imgur.com/bAL9uAf.png Opinions please? | 20:34 |
ThatGraemeGuy | is that a presentation slide? | 20:54 |
theblazehen | ThatGraemeGuy: yep | 20:55 |
ThatGraemeGuy | i won't pretend to be a master of giving presentations but it seems a bit verbose | 20:56 |
ThatGraemeGuy | slides are typically much more terse with the detail coming out in the talk | 20:56 |
theblazehen | Yeah, good point | 20:56 |
* inetpro agrees with that point | 21:00 | |
inetpro | hate it when people want me to read an essay on the big screen, rather hand out the details in print form if you want me to read that | 21:00 |
inetpro | in which case there's no need to waste everyone's time with a presentation | 21:01 |
inetpro | very few things are as boring as a presenter who reads his presentation on the screen | 21:04 |
theblazehen | inetpro: true, thanks | 21:04 |
inetpro | no stress | 21:05 |
theblazehen | Maybe I should actually just skip that section. If people wanna understand, then they should google it themselves | 21:05 |
inetpro | theblazehen: that is just my opinion, I'm the worst public speaker out there | 21:06 |
theblazehen | inetpro: nah, I have a time limit of 3 - 5 minutes | 21:06 |
theblazehen | Very short | 21:07 |
inetpro | the shorter it becomes the more difficult it is to do it right | 21:07 |
theblazehen | inetpro: yeah :( | 21:08 |
theblazehen | I have too much information to get accross | 21:09 |
* inetpro going to recharge the batteries | 21:15 | |
inetpro | good night | 21:15 |
theblazehen | cya inetpro | 21:21 |
