| Kilos | Maaz, reapp | 08:21 |
| Maaz | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZATeam/ReApprovalApplication2014 | 08:21 |
| inetpro | a terrible word that | 08:25 |
| Kilos | supposed to mean re_app | 08:25 |
| Kilos | re-app | 08:25 |
| Kilos | Maaz, forget reapp | 08:25 |
| Maaz | Kilos: Righto | 08:25 |
| Kilos | i tired now | 08:26 |
| Kilos | oh inetpro i found a wifi hotspot close by | 08:28 |
| Kilos | further towards brits and about 3 ks i think | 08:28 |
| Kilos | i dunno how to measure crow fly distance | 08:29 |
| Kilos | so no hills between | 08:29 |
| gremble | o/ | 08:56 |
| nlsthzn | Kilos, that is the way the page will look for everyone | 08:56 |
| Kilos | ok ty nlsthzn | 08:57 |
| Kilos | hi gremble | 08:57 |
| bushtech | Kilos, to measure crow fly distance google earth or mapsource/basecamp can all do it I think | 09:14 |
| Kilos | hmm.... | 09:26 |
| Kilos | what do isps use for their coverage maps | 09:27 |
| Kilos | like on this link | 09:28 |
| Kilos | http://www.telkommobile.co.za/wifi/#q%3Dmagaliesmoot%2C%20South%20Africa | 09:28 |
| Kilos | type in magaliesmoot in the search block | 09:29 |
| Kilos | oh i think you must choose prepaid first then wifi i forget now | 09:30 |
| charl | good morning | 10:16 |
| charl | Maaz: coffee on | 10:16 |
| * Maaz washes some mugs | 10:16 | |
| charl | dirty mugs again | 10:19 |
| Maaz | Coffee's ready for charl! | 10:20 |
| Kilos | hi charl | 10:25 |
| nlsthzn | due to inactivity the ZA subforum in ubuntuforums.org has been closed :/ | 11:13 |
| Kilos | ya | 11:20 |
| Kilos | we help peeps here not in a forum | 11:21 |
| gremble | Why does a subforum have to be closed | 11:29 |
| gremble | It is not like it takes a lot of resources, especially when it is inactive | 11:29 |
| nlsthzn | I guess not but all loco's that had inactive subforums where archived, they can be re-opened if needed off course | 11:33 |
| charl | Maaz: thanks | 11:34 |
| Maaz | charl: Sure | 11:34 |
| charl | hi Kilos | 11:34 |
| magespawn | good afternoon | 12:46 |
| inetpro | hullo magespawn | 12:47 |
| magespawn | how is it, inetpro? | 12:48 |
| inetpro | very very hot here in Pretoria | 12:51 |
| nlsthzn | nice autumn weather here - only 33 | 12:55 |
| inetpro | 30°C here inside with 40% humidity, too much for me | 12:59 |
| inetpro | not sure about the accuracy of the humidity though | 13:00 |
| inetpro | magic mobile phone telling me that | 13:01 |
| charl | hey inetpro | 13:03 |
| inetpro | hi charl | 13:03 |
| charl | how's it going | 13:03 |
| charl | oh sorry you already answered that :p | 13:04 |
| charl | hi magespawn | 13:04 |
| Kilos | hi magespawn | 13:14 |
| Kilos | we might get a storm later to cool it off for the old and feeble | 13:17 |
| gremble | With all this heat it will probably be hail | 13:18 |
| Kilos | hail cools it quick | 13:18 |
| gremble | Ya, does not mean I like it :P | 13:18 |
| gremble | We have a flat roof | 13:18 |
| gremble | Last time there was bad hail, it broke | 13:18 |
| Kilos | eish | 13:19 |
| Kilos | last hail we had stripped all the fruit trees | 13:19 |
| gremble | It is very good for the trees though. | 13:20 |
| gremble | Hail puts a lot of nitrogen back into the ground | 13:20 |
| Kilos | oh yes hail is good for all plants but only after theyve recovered from the damage | 13:20 |
| magespawn | hi Kilos, hi charl | 13:50 |
| magespawn | i am nice and cool for once, down here | 13:51 |
| Kilos | haha is it building up to rain magespawn ? | 13:51 |
| magespawn | gotta go install a satellite dish | 13:52 |
| magespawn | no just over cast and cool | 13:52 |
| Kilos | that place can cook with the best of them | 13:52 |
| magespawn | we are having a nice start to summer so far, had a couple of hot days but not sustained yet | 13:52 |
| magespawn | gotta go now, dish install, chat later | 13:53 |
| Kilos | go install your dish so you dont have to work late unless they giving supper too | 13:53 |
| Kilos | enjoy | 13:53 |
| magespawn | later | 13:53 |
| Kilos | bushtech, i used google maps and a vernier and looks like the hotspot is only 1 k from here | 14:41 |
| Kilos | https://maps.google.com/maps?output=classic&dg=brw | 14:41 |
| Kilos | but also realised i gave my wifi card and yagi to ian | 14:42 |
| Kilos | sigh | 14:42 |
| Kilos | hehe | 14:42 |
| charl | does anyone happen to have any experience getting vlc working on raspbian ? | 14:48 |
| Kilos | whats raspbian | 14:50 |
| gremble | debian on a raspberry pi | 14:51 |
| charl | version of debian that runs on raspberry pi | 14:51 |
| charl | yes | 14:52 |
| Kilos | oi you okes and your toys | 14:52 |
| charl | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8775430/ | 14:52 |
| charl | that's what i did so far but not working | 14:52 |
| Kilos | hasnt it got a package manager | 14:53 |
| Kilos | to sort dependancies | 14:53 |
| charl | regular apt but the apt package does not work | 14:53 |
| charl | not compiled properly | 14:53 |
| Kilos | anreinstall apt | 14:53 |
| Kilos | can you install aptitude on it | 14:54 |
| Kilos | is aptitude debian or ubuntu only | 14:54 |
| gremble | Aptitude is debian | 14:54 |
| gremble | That is why ubuntu can use it | 14:55 |
| gremble | Ubuntu is based on debian | 14:55 |
| charl | it's not apt's fault it's the package | 14:55 |
| charl | that's why i need to compile | 14:55 |
| Kilos | cool then use aptitude charl it will give more feedback | 14:55 |
| gremble | Is it a schlep to compile packages on the raspberry? | 14:55 |
| charl | nono you don't understand Kilos | 14:55 |
| charl | the package installs | 14:56 |
| charl | but it is not compiled to work with the gpu that's on the board | 14:56 |
| charl | it's broadcom so it's problematic | 14:56 |
| Kilos | ai! | 14:56 |
| gremble | Isn't the r-pi supposed to be fully open hardware? | 14:56 |
| charl | gremble: it's slow. very slow. the rpi is slow to start off with. | 14:56 |
| charl | nono broadcom is not known for being open | 14:56 |
| charl | openbsd refuses to run on it because of those issue | 14:57 |
| charl | omxplayer runs perfectly with hardware acceleration | 14:57 |
| charl | but omxplayer does not support subtitles well | 14:57 |
| charl | and that happens to be important for me | 14:57 |
| charl | compiling vlc took a couple of hours | 14:58 |
| gremble | charl: http://hertaville.com/2014/04/12/cross-compiling-qt4-app/ perhaps you can cross-compile from the PC | 14:58 |
| charl | the issue is not qt | 14:59 |
| charl | i run the command line version of vlc | 14:59 |
| charl | the problems are related to audio and codecs | 14:59 |
| gremble | That is now spesific to QT4 apps, but I am sure you can use the same cross-comp toolchain | 14:59 |
| gremble | I didn't link for QT. | 14:59 |
| gremble | I linked for the toolchain | 14:59 |
| charl | ah so, lemme take a look | 14:59 |
| charl | interesting | 15:00 |
| charl | that will speed things up a lot | 15:00 |
| charl | but i still need the right compile options | 15:01 |
| charl | that's what i'm having trouble with right now | 15:01 |
| gremble | Ah ok | 15:01 |
| charl | thanks for the help though but i think i need somebody with experience having done this before | 15:02 |
| charl | thought i might hit it lucky :) | 15:02 |
| Kilos | haha | 15:02 |
| charl | i think i need to ask on some rpi channels | 15:02 |
| charl | it's a pity because omxplayer works great (for the most part) | 15:02 |
| charl | maybe i should try patching it | 15:02 |
| charl | and forget about vlc entirely | 15:03 |
| charl | or i should simply cave in and use xbmc :) | 15:04 |
| charl | but i really like the ability to control the video via ssh | 15:05 |
| Kilos | dont give up till you have proved its impossible | 15:05 |
| Kilos | proven | 15:06 |
| Kilos | and battling with it will keep you out of other trouble | 15:06 |
| charl | gremble: i found this earlier which is related https://github.com/rcarmo/raspbian-vlc-cross-compile | 15:09 |
| charl | it lets you compile vlc inside a VM using vagrant | 15:09 |
| charl | also a very nice concept i think | 15:09 |
| charl | lol Kilos | 15:09 |
| charl | i have lots to do here :P not just compile stuff the whole day | 15:09 |
| gremble | Ya. you need a compiler that can compile it into the correct bytecode/instruction set | 15:10 |
| charl | precisely yeah but clearly that's not a problem | 15:11 |
| charl | it is heck of a lot faster than compiling on the rpi | 15:12 |
| charl | i am very impressed with the minimalism though | 15:12 |
| charl | -/+ buffers/cache: 25M 348M | 15:12 |
| charl | only uses 25M with nothing open other than standard ssh | 15:12 |
| charl | that's impressive | 15:12 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 16:31 |
| inetpro | Maaz: hmm... | 16:31 |
| Maaz | hmm... is often used to try make others believe one is actually thinking | 16:31 |
| charl | hmmmmmmmm | 16:32 |
| inetpro | uh!? | 16:33 |
| Kilos | what does uh!? mean inetpro ? | 16:35 |
| Kilos | you winning charl ? | 16:37 |
| Kilos | or you gave up | 16:37 |
| Kilos | you okes all need to get bell.ogg alert/notifications working so you dont take a week to answer | 16:38 |
| Kilos | ohi superfly | 16:38 |
| Kilos | s3 fixed? | 16:38 |
| superfly | hi Kilos, no. | 16:38 |
| Kilos | oh my what happened you always fix things | 16:39 |
| charl | Kilos: i'm asking on #raspbian now | 16:51 |
| charl | i'll see if i get some luck | 16:51 |
| charl | nope no luck | 17:04 |
| charl | channel is dead | 17:04 |
| charl | that said, it's saturday evening | 17:04 |
| Kilos | other irc channels you can wait half a day for help | 17:11 |
| Kilos | sjoe | 17:32 |
| Kilos | biblical justice with a twist | 17:32 |
| Kilos | http://in.reuters.com/article/2014/10/31/congodemocratic-rebels-idINKBN0IK1SL20141031 | 17:32 |
| charl | true, true | 17:51 |
| charl | yum that sounds delicious | 17:52 |
| charl | good thing i had an early dinner | 17:52 |
| Kilos | eeeek | 17:52 |
| Kilos | lol | 17:52 |
| Kilos | can safe on the food bills that way | 17:52 |
| Kilos | how far is kenya from there | 17:52 |
| charl | in the west they say "i killed a man" and in afrika they say "i fed my family" | 17:53 |
| Kilos | maybe andrew gets eaten if his servers crash | 17:53 |
| charl | uganda and some other countries are in between | 17:53 |
| charl | Symmetria: they gonna turn you into roast | 17:54 |
| charl | i don't think the kenyans would do that though | 17:55 |
| charl | kenyans are very nice people | 17:55 |
| charl | the somalis might | 17:55 |
| Kilos | hehe | 17:55 |
| charl | no i think the somalies will just threat you with a bomb | 17:55 |
| Kilos | and then eat the pieces | 17:55 |
| charl | yeah the kenyans don't like them | 17:55 |
| Kilos | thats kind of rough in this day and age | 17:56 |
| charl | it's sad | 17:57 |
| charl | days are getting shorter ... i feel the winter coming | 17:57 |
| charl | today was nice though, clear skies and 20 degrees | 17:57 |
| Kilos | 20 is winter | 17:57 |
| charl | nono | 17:58 |
| charl | -20 is winter | 17:58 |
| charl | fortunately not in NL | 17:58 |
| charl | here -2 is winter | 17:58 |
| Kilos | no man thats the temp you keep meat at for years before you cook and eat it | 17:58 |
| charl | very cold that here, in lapland everyone would run outside | 17:58 |
| charl | in lapland they don't even see the sun those people | 17:59 |
| charl | half the year they live in darkness | 18:00 |
| Kilos | eish | 18:00 |
| charl | not my climate i would get crazy | 18:00 |
| charl | *become | 18:00 |
| charl | that's no climate for a normal person that's for eskimos | 18:01 |
| Kilos | yeah | 18:01 |
| Kilos | but not much flu around there i think | 18:02 |
| charl | it's too cold for flu | 18:03 |
| charl | nothing survives | 18:03 |
| Kilos | i wonder if they got aids there | 18:04 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 18:26 |
| charl | wb theblazehen | 19:24 |
