| Kilos | was it you wanted to know the cost of lpi exam? | 09:22 |

| Kilos | DCC Direct Client to Client (IRC) | 09:50 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | DCC uses the irc network to set up a direct connection between 2 clients, for chat or more typically for file transfer | 10:07 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | that was how you built your mp3 collection back in the days before napster and the p2p file sharing explosion | 10:07 |

| Kilos | hi Tonberry superfly | 17:18 |
| Kilos | and inetpro | 17:18 |
| Tonberry | hi | 17:25 |
| Kilos | hi Joe_knock | 18:23 |
| Joe_knock | Hey there oom Kilos | 18:23 |
| Kilos | we need to get everyone here again and see who will be contact person | 18:26 |
| Kilos | monkey cant do it anymore | 18:26 |
| Kilos | health reasons i think | 18:26 |
| Kilos | superfly: inetpro comments? | 18:27 |
| superfly | i don't really have the time | 18:28 |
| Kilos | oh i know that superfly i just wanted your opinion, should i ask maia to do it for the next 2 years | 18:32 |
| Kilos | if i say pretty please she might | 18:33 |
| Kilos | evening ThatGraemeGuy | 18:37 |
| Kilos | standby? | 18:37 |
| gremble | What is required of a contact person? | 18:37 |
| gremble | Hmm nevermind | 18:37 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | no, I just seem to have useable MTN 3G for the first time in ages so I'm taking advantage while it lasts | 18:38 |
| gremble | I don't think I should do it | 18:38 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | solid 50ms ping and 1.5M down, this is pretty much unheard of for me at home | 18:39 |
| Kilos | gremble | 18:40 |
| Joe_knock | I'm tempted to volunteer, but I don't think I can commit time in December | 18:41 |
| Kilos | we need someone reliable, its basically to be the direct contact to canonical, and when dvds arrive fetch them from customs and then distribute | 18:41 |
| gremble | ThatGraemeGuy: that is unheard of in general :P | 18:41 |
| Joe_knock | "and when dvds arrive fetch them from customs and then distribute" now that is the tough part | 18:41 |
| Kilos | ya thats the only hard part | 18:41 |
| Kilos | so whats sick ThatGraemeGuy ? | 18:42 |
| Kilos | mtr and look for the weak links | 18:43 |
| Kilos | oh its wifi now hey | 18:43 |
| Kilos | misty out there? | 18:43 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | no 3G not wifi | 18:50 |
| Kilos | sorry i just read what you said earlier. i missed it earlier | 18:51 |
| Joe_knock | Doesn't 3G and wifi run in a similar frequency band? | 18:52 |
| captine | evening all | 18:54 |
| Kilos | hi captine | 18:54 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | spoke too soon, gone down the toilet again | 18:54 |
| Kilos | ai! | 18:54 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | Joe_knock: nope | 18:54 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | wifi is 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz, 3G is a bunch of others | 18:55 |
| Joe_knock | ThatGraemeGuy: If your house is double-story, try sitting on the second story near a window | 18:55 |
| Kilos | wifi is 2.4 and 5g | 18:55 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | 800MHz, 900MHz, 2100MHz, etc | 18:55 |
| Kilos | 3g in the 900 meg band | 18:55 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | Joe_knock: i'm on the bad side of a hill | 18:55 |
| Kilos | oh my you fast ThatGraemeGuy | 18:56 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | i'm on the edge of the urban area just beyond me is farmland | 18:56 |
| Joe_knock | aah so 3G is 2100, but it is MHz, whilst wifi is 2.4 GHz (= 2400MHz? ) | 18:56 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | yeah | 18:57 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | and not only 2100, there's a whole list | 18:57 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | i think cell c uses 900MHz | 18:57 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | which is likely why i have better cell c reception | 18:57 |
| Joe_knock | I thought part of the 900 MHz wasn't available to cell providers as ICASA wanted to give it to new players | 18:58 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | ok | 18:59 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | whatever, the point is the question was isn't 3G the same frequencies as wifi and the answer is no | 18:59 |
| Joe_knock | correct | 18:59 |
| Kilos | Maaz: coffee on | 19:13 |
| * Maaz flips the salt-timer | 19:13 | |
| Kilos | Maaz: coffee for all | 19:13 |
| Maaz | Come on ya buncha geeks. Rock up with your mugs with the correct amount of sugar added already | 19:13 |
| Kilos | Joe_knock: you using ubuntu? | 19:14 |
| Kilos | 64bit? | 19:14 |
| Joe_knock | Kilos: 32-bit Xubuntu | 19:14 |
| Kilos | can you look in synaptic if ibid is there please | 19:15 |
| Maaz | Coffee's ready for Kilos! | 19:17 |
| Kilos | Maaz: ty | 19:17 |
| Maaz | You are welcome Kilos | 19:17 |
| Joe_knock | ibid ? | 19:18 |

| Kilos | used to be in repos | 19:19 |
| Joe_knock | Ibid: "Easily extensible Python IM bot for IRC, Jabber, SILC, campfire, etc." | 19:19 |
| Joe_knock | It's in the Ubuntu Software centre | 19:20 |
| Joe_knock | *Center | 19:20 |
| Kilos | maybe i did something wrong here i installed a daily build one and it dont work and thats what i see in synaptic, so i dont know if it doesnt work on 64bit | 19:22 |
| Kilos | np will look around ty | 19:22 |
| Joe_knock | oom hoe het jy die daily build install? | 19:27 |
| Joe_knock | a 32-bit build *could* work in a 64-bit machine | 19:27 |
| Kilos | i installed it with the kde installer | 19:32 |
| Kilos | just click on it and it installs | 19:33 |
| Kilos | only when i run it i get an error in some keyword | 19:33 |
| Kilos | but purged now | 19:33 |
| Kilos | will try again tomorrow | 19:33 |
| Kilos | ami i mailed maia and asked her if she can stay on as contact person | 19:36 |
| Kilos | so all you guys hold thumbs with me | 19:37 |
