[08:46] <lordievader> Good morning.
[08:55] <Mikaela> hi
[08:56] <lordievader> Hey Mikaela, how are you?
[08:56] <Mikaela> I am not sure, and you?
[08:57] <lordievader> Meh, allright I guess. I think I'm going to try and fix a samba issue.
[09:07] <Mikaela> I am acting like doing multimedia tasks, I think, while IRCing and having many unrelated tabs and reconnecting Windows PCs to domain
[12:43] <BluesKaj_> Hey folks
[12:44] <Mikaela> hi
[12:45] <BluesKaj_> hey
[12:46] <Mikaela> home finally, bye
[13:54] <BluesKaj_> mbalmer, pls check your connection
[13:54] <BluesKaj_> err mbruzek1 ^
[13:54] <mbruzek1> Sorry BluesKaj_ I am trying to figure out SASL and how it works with pidgin
[13:55] <mbruzek1> I registered mbruzek with freenode and I can't figure out how to actually USE the nickname with SASL authentication.
[13:55] <mbruzek1> apologies to everyone for the multiple join/part
[13:55] <BluesKaj_> pidgin and sasl ... use a real irc client like konverstion or quassel, mbruzek1
[13:56] <mbruzek1> BluesKaj_: thanks I would love to use quassel, but I can not get the sound working on that one.
[13:56] <mbruzek1> have not tried konverstation
[13:57] <mbruzek1> ahh both quassel and konversation are for KDE
[13:57] <mbruzek1> What about those of us who continue with unity?  All the extra packages!
[13:57] <BluesKaj_> err konversation
[14:01] <lordievader> Xchat?
[14:01] <lordievader> Irssi :D
[14:01] <mbruzek1> all good options to look into.  Again sorry for the multiple join/depart
[14:01] <lordievader> mbruzek1: That's quite allright, if people are really bothered by it they can turn it off ;)
[14:04] <mbruzek1> BluesKaj_: I honestly tried quassel but the notifications do not play for me at all.  I tried both the KDE and QT client both install fine but both have no sound (and the kde one pulls in a lot of extra packages).  My google-fu has returned no matches for "quassel not playing sound"
[14:06] <BluesKaj_> mbruzek1, why do you need sound on an irc client ?
[14:10] <mbruzek1> BluesKaj_: Because I want to know when someone needs my attention otherwise I am going to work
[14:12] <BluesKaj_> set your client to notify you in the highlight section
[14:13] <mbruzek1> BluesKaj_: I did, quassel gives no beep, I let several messages go while I evaluted it.
[14:25] <Mikaela> mbruzek1: you must set SASL username as the same that you see as accountname in /msg nickserv info mbruzek1
[14:25] <Mikaela> mbruzek1: and in addition to that Pidgin doesn't use SASL without SSL by default. There is also #pidgin which might be able to help you
[14:26] <Mikaela> lordievader: xchat really shouldn't be recommended anymore as it's no longer maintained and it doesn't support anything newer than SSLv3 which servers are disabling. HexChat is fork of it that is maintained and has SASL support and is in repositories https://hexchat.github.io/ . HexChat can also take config from XChat which is explained in their FAQ.
[14:27] <Mikaela> oh and the UI hasn't changed from xchat
[14:28] <lordievader> Mikaela: Check.
[14:29] <mbruzek> Mikaela: I could not authenticate to freenode with ssl enabled.  I was able to manually authenticate to NickServ just now, but would like to figure this out so I will take your advice and join #pidigin
[14:29] <BluesKaj_> yup hexchat is a good alternative irc client especially on Windows
[14:30] <Mikaela> :)
[14:30] <Mikaela> also on OS X, but it doesn't work on it so well according to what I have heard.
[14:30] <mbruzek> thanks for the help I know this wasn't the right room.
[14:32] <Mikaela> You're welcome :)
[14:32] <mbruzek> Mikaela: I am alone in the #pidgin room
[14:33] <mbruzek> not freenode?
[14:33] <Mikaela> it should be at #freenode
[14:34] <Mikaela> I am there and see 165 nicks, are you sure that you spelled the name correctly?
[14:41] <mbruzek> wrong irc server on my part.
[14:41]  * mbruzek sighs, it is going to be a long day
[14:42] <Mikaela> I would suggest you to try HexChat
[15:02] <mbalmer> BluesKaj_, what is wrong with my connection?
[15:02] <mbalmer> ah, that was not me ;)
[15:03] <BluesKaj_> mbalmer, yeah , sorry I mistyped
[15:03] <mbalmer> np :)
