[04:25] <mapp> hi all
[04:28] <daftykins> mornin'
[04:29] <mapp> sup mate
[04:33] <daftykins> ooh i got my Sopranos bluray set :D
[04:33] <daftykins> even made playback on Linux work, which was easy
[06:59] <bujji> can any one tell me about samba server.
[07:01] <daftykins> i really wish you would use the channel for your *own* country
[07:01] <daftykins> why do you refuse?
[07:03] <bujji> daftykins:i get a quick response here.))
[07:03] <daftykins> what do you need to know about samba that isn't available by google?
[07:08] <bujji> is that windows to linux file sharing system
[07:08] <daftykins> yes
[07:09] <bujji> only for windows
[07:09] <daftykins> what?
[07:09] <daftykins> no Linux to Linux too
[07:13] <bujji> nfs is there right
[07:14] <daftykins> that's an alternative
[07:15] <bujji> mac to linux is that possible.
[07:16] <daftykins> these are really basic questions. research online.
[07:17] <bujji> daftykins:Is there any free server to activate and use.
[07:18] <daftykins> what do you mean by free server?
[07:18] <daftykins> Linux distros are free, ubuntu is free, samba is free
[07:18] <directhex> apple don't use samba anymore in osx, they wrote their own thing
[07:19] <daftykins> SMBv2 and broke it :D
[07:19] <bujji> okey directhex
[07:20] <bujji> daftykins:it means to operate a free server from my windows to linux
[07:21] <directhex> the built-in windows file-sharing protocol is called "CIFS". windows has CIFS sharing and access built-in. Linux does it with parts of Samba. OSX does it with parts of apple's home-built Samba replacement
[07:24] <bujji> directhex:good info
[07:24] <bujji> daftykins:?
[07:30] <bujji> oly:Is there any free server to activate and use.
[07:35] <daftykins> you really haven't even googled 'samba' have you? :P
[07:38] <bujji> daftykins:I had refer that.
[07:39] <bujji> daftykins:For practice i need server to do that...is there any way to get that free sever
[07:40] <daftykins> yeah you install samba
[07:40] <daftykins> !info samba trusty
[07:41] <daftykins> now if you look online you'll find roughly half a million guides on how
[07:42] <bujji> daftykins:can you please provide link.
[07:42] <daftykins> bujji: can you use google?
[07:43] <daftykins> i'm happy to give advice when someone has tried and has an issue, but when you won't even try - that's a no.
[07:44] <bujji> daftykins:hello
[07:45] <daftykins> ...
[07:48] <bujji> daftykins:are you there.
[07:55] <bujji> directhex: is there any way to operate free server from my machine.
[07:56] <bujji> daftykins: https://learn.chef.io/rhel/configure-a-resource/
[07:59] <bujji> daftykins: hey
[08:00] <daftykins> this is an ubuntu channel, that is a redhat link
[08:00] <daftykins> why are you linking me to this?
[08:00] <zmoylan-pi> daftykins you can always mute them if they annoy so much
[08:01] <daftykins> it's not my first rodeo, zmoylan-pi
[08:02] <bujji> daftykins: you are very kind in answer.
[08:03] <daftykins> bujji: come back when you can phrase a question
[08:05] <directhex> right click a folder, "sharing" on windows and "local network share" on ubuntu
[08:05] <directhex> that's literally *it*
[08:10] <bujji> daftykins: I am not able to install subversion in ubuntu.
[08:11] <directhex> how the hell did we get onto subversion?
[08:14] <bujji> directhex: Its a configuration management(version control) tool.I am not able to install this on my machine.
[08:14] <directhex> no. subversion is a source-control system
[08:14] <zmoylan-pi> what error do you get?
[08:15] <directhex> and it has nothing to do with samba
[08:16] <bujji> directhex: its required for file sharing right.
[08:16] <directhex> not in any remote way, shape, or... i mean, i'm struggling here to even comprehend why you'd think that
[08:16] <directhex> i already GAVE you the answer.
[08:16] <directhex> 08:05 <directhex> right click a folder, "sharing" on windows and "local network share" on ubuntu
[08:16] <directhex> 08:05 <directhex> that's literally *it*
[09:20] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.

[09:37] <foobarry> aw man
[09:37] <foobarry> youngest child has a sick bug
[09:39] <zmoylan-pi> so it'll be a white christmas with all the kleenex :-)
[09:40] <foobarry> christmas is cancelled :(
[09:56] <bigcalm> Good morning peeps :)
[10:22] <dutchie> hi all]
[10:35] <bigcalm> Hi kids :)
[10:36] <intrbiz> bigcalm: morning
[10:37] <diddledan> no christmas?!
[10:41] <bigcalm> ?
[10:43] <bigcalm> What's that?
[11:03] <intrbiz> not christmas for another two days
[11:13] <bigcalm> That said, productivity isn't very high
[11:19] <diddledan> bigcalm, speak for yourself :-p
[11:19] <diddledan> bigcalm, I'm busy
[11:20] <bigcalm> I'm busy, but not feeling it
[12:20] <popey> directhex: seen the thread on ubuntu-devel about mono?
[12:20] <directhex> i saw brief mention on irc
[12:20] <intrbiz> well the security of this box has more in common with a colander than a server :(
[12:20] <directhex> but i don't read mailing lists
[12:21] <diddledan> intrbiz, sweet
[12:22] <intrbiz> diddledan: yeh, the joys of ancient software and customers who can't be arsed to improve things
[12:27] <directhex> popey: anything i need to pay attention to?
[12:28] <bigcalm> intrbiz: that sounds like all of my clients
[12:29] <zmoylan-pi> only a few years back we had a windows 3.1 laptop in to connect to web after we found a pcmcia modem.  all the office gathered around to remember how to do it... :-)
[12:29] <directhex> trumpet winsock!
[12:29]  * zmoylan-pi gives directhex a cookie
[12:30] <popey> directhex: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2014-December/038579.html
[12:30] <directhex> i hate replying to mailing list messages from web archives :/
[12:30] <popey> he has a facts a little wrong
[12:34] <intrbiz> bigcalm: hehe
[12:35] <intrbiz> having to use control-h for backspace is tiresome, this ancient database can only work with weird term types :(
[12:35] <diddledan> ew
[12:36] <bashrc> at the risk of revisiting the Monowars I think that as a technology it's fine, but that the patent threats are real. The implementation of Mono went a long way beyond the ECMA specification
[12:37]  * zmoylan-pi opens the shed with the torches and pitchforks ready to be handed out _1_ per customer
[12:37] <intrbiz> bashrc: does the fact MS has spun .net off into a foundation, with an open source core, and Xamarin as a board member, make things better?
[12:38] <diddledan> the monowars were a dark time in history. the resistence sent back in time a lone warrior to defend the mother of the leader of the resistence
[12:38] <diddledan> Connor Johns was, or will be, his name.
[12:39] <zmoylan-pi> and not bingo? :-)
[13:26] <foobarry> poeple on facebook making a big deal about locating a person and reuniting them with their possessions, found them in 10s flat :D
[13:38] <popey> https://twitter.com/czajkowski/status/547022896376586240
[13:41] <foobarry> who watched the apprentice?
[13:41] <foobarry> spoiler alert:
[13:41] <diddledan> don't you hate that. You think you're going for a nice day out in Lahinch and then someone drops the M-bomb. Honestly, what is the world coming to when people start proposing to their loved ones?! :-p
[13:42] <diddledan> in related news, congrats czajkowski
[13:42] <zmoylan-pi> 'nice day in lahinch'... you've never been to lahinch, have you? :-P
[13:43] <foobarry> alan sugar investing in spam?
[13:43] <zmoylan-pi> spam is too expensive for lord sugar, recycled chicken offal is more his price range
[13:43] <diddledan> foobarry, the "meat" product, or the devil's messaging system?
[13:43] <foobarry> does mr cz-tab run l;inux?
[13:43] <foobarry> does he know what drives SEO?
[13:44] <foobarry> sugar claims  to know tech lol
[13:44] <diddledan> is there a link?
[13:45] <zmoylan-pi> he did shift a lot of xt computers...
[13:45] <popey> mr cz-tab runs osx
[13:45] <zmoylan-pi> to people who thought they were buying 286s, 386s an 486s :-)
[14:01] <Azelphur> Anyone know how to set hard drives to spindown?
[14:01] <Azelphur> It's for a NAS so they don't get used super often, and the OS is on an SSD
[14:01] <zmoylan-pi> somewhere in power saving?
[14:02] <Azelphur> zmoylan-pi: server edition :)
[14:09] <foobarry> hdparm?
[14:10] <foobarry> i mean smartctl
[14:10] <Azelphur> looks like the thing to do :)
[14:10] <Azelphur> wat
[14:10] <Azelphur> smartctl is for reading smart data isn't it?
[14:10] <foobarry> yeah :s
[14:11] <foobarry> not had much sleep
[14:11] <Azelphur> hehe
[14:11] <Azelphur> hdparm seems like the thing
[15:19] <bigcalm> Anybody with an SGS5 taken the plunge and put CM on it?
[15:27] <knightwise> hey everyone
[15:27] <knightwise> popey : enjoyed the last show very much :)
[15:27] <knightwise> I'll never get 'dalek racing' out of my head now
[15:27] <diddledan> bigcalm, why not ubuntu? </troll>
[15:28] <knightwise> have any of you ever played with the Virtualbox web interface ?
[15:29] <knightwise> for some reason I seem to be missing the web service.  When I try sudo /etc/init.d/vboxweb-service restart
[15:29] <knightwise> it says the service doesnt exist
[15:32] <bigcalm> diddledan: I'll wait until Feb and buy an Ubuphone
[15:34] <intrbiz> a uPhone maybe?
[15:35] <bigcalm> Sounds a little small
[15:38] <DJones> Is there any preferred dlna server software for an Ubuntu 12.04 server
[15:39] <DJones> I was thinking about MiniDLNA
[15:39] <bigcalm> DLNA?
[15:40] <DJones> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MiniDLNA
[15:40] <DJones> Basically broadcasts video over wifi to a DLNA enabled tv set
[15:40] <bigcalm> I see
[15:40] <knightwise> DJones minidlna works pretty good
[15:40] <knightwise> Plex is also awesome
[15:40] <bigcalm> I use mediatomb - is that the same thing?
[15:41] <DJones> I think it is the same
[15:44] <bigcalm> I don't know if it's the server, but all clients I've seen are terrible
[15:46] <DJones> Just bought a smart tv with dlna capeabilities, seems an obvious choice to set it up on the server since I've already got a stack of video etc there that I normally play on a tablet via ssh
[15:47] <DJones> Although probably mean my wife won't get out of bed once christmas & family visiting is over and done with
[15:49] <ThomasRedstone> getting out of bed is overrated...
[16:26] <KrimZon> i've just installed mate in 14.04 but I don't see a cog in lightdm in order to choose it as a desktop - does anyone know how to fix that?
[16:30] <KrimZon> scratch that, the repo version is 1.6 and i'll switch to 1.8 from a ppa
[16:30] <KrimZon> i've done that before and it worked
[19:31] <DJones> Don't you just hate it when you're making a christmas present for your parent with lots of  old photo's and putting it together brings tears to your eyes
[19:32] <christel> awww
[19:59] <zmoylan-pi> swimming goggles so no tears make it on to the photos...
[20:12] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi: water damage might be considered an extra bonus present
[21:04] <diddledan> yey? http://www.engadget.com/2014/12/22/north-korea-is-suffering-a-complete-internet-outage/

[21:19] <diddledan> oh, and idiots are claiming sony made it all up
[21:21] <diddledan> trey parker needs to do a follow-up of team america with kim jong-un

[23:04] <ali1234> what does it mean when all my KMLs are on the exact opposite side of the planet to where they should be?
[23:08] <ali1234> specifically all my POI are just off the coast of somalia
[23:08] <ali1234> instead of being in the UK
[23:08] <diddledan> o_O
[23:08]  * diddledan goes googling acronyms
[23:08] <ali1234> POI = points of interest
[23:09] <diddledan> kml as in gps?
[23:09] <ali1234> KML = XML for google earth
[23:09] <ali1234> yes
[23:09] <diddledan> weird then
[23:09] <diddledan> maybe your kml writer is skewed in terms of time?
[23:10] <ali1234> the answer is: google earth wants lon,lat instead of lat,lon like everything else uses
[23:10] <diddledan> oh ffs
[23:10] <mapito> hmm
[23:10] <diddledan> that's stupid
[23:10] <mapito> my left eye hurts feels like its strained
[23:10] <mapito> grmpf
[23:10] <diddledan> mapito, that was where I was prodding it through the night
[23:11] <mapito> ;]
[23:11] <ali1234> and now i have a map of every mobile cell tower in the country :)
[23:11] <mapito> off to work i go
[23:11] <diddledan> ooh
[23:11] <diddledan> every single one?!
[23:11] <mapito> see you all in the wee early hours
[23:11] <diddledan> how do you know you didn't miss any? :-p
[23:11] <ali1234> yes, the data is a bit behind
[23:11] <diddledan> tata, mapito
[23:11] <mapito> how did you do that ali1234 ?
[23:11] <ali1234> i got it from ofcom?
[23:11] <mapito> ah
[23:11] <ali1234> but their data is using OS grid rreferences
[23:11] <diddledan> >.<
[23:12] <ali1234> and is a giant excel spreadsheet with 140000 lines
[23:12] <mapito> os grid?
[23:12] <mapito> heh
[23:12] <zmoylan-pi> there used to be an android app that showed phone masts
[23:12] <diddledan> why can't people settle on consistent standards?!
[23:12] <ali1234> there are many such apps as the data is freely available
[23:12] <mapito> zmoylan-pi,  pm:P
[23:12] <ali1234> however they all suck
[23:12] <zmoylan-pi> i disagree with you diddledan!
[23:12] <ali1234> i now have it all as nice KML files
[23:12] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi, it was you poking mapito 's eye?
[23:12] <zmoylan-pi> wanting single standards :-)
[23:13] <mapito> heh im bugging him about something hes told me before
[23:13] <mapito> but i forgot
[23:13] <zmoylan-pi> i told you 4 times, i'm not repeating myself mapito
[23:13] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi, not necessarily "one standard to rule them all" but interoperable standards
[23:13] <mapito> please
[23:13] <mapito> il save a note this time
[23:13] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi, shall I poke his eye again?
[23:14] <diddledan> :-p
[23:14] <mapito> ;[
[23:14] <diddledan> you *poke* will *poke* remember *poke* :-D
[23:15] <zmoylan-pi> cabin pressure

[23:15] <diddledan> movie?
[23:15] <diddledan> radio series
[23:15] <zmoylan-pi> radio 4 comedy, funniest thing you've ever heard
[23:16] <diddledan> so, I can't get my monitor going at all today
[23:16] <diddledan> it's dead as a dead dingo
[23:16] <zmoylan-pi> though i still haven't tracked down lawnchair larrys escapade caught on radio
[23:16] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi, is that what the game "leisure suit larry" was based on? ;-)
[23:16] <zmoylan-pi> is this the one that needed a replugging in yesterday?
[23:17] <diddledan> yup
[23:17] <diddledan> I tried unplugging it twice now
[23:18] <zmoylan-pi> lawnchair larry was a man who heard that you could get a better tan if you were above clouds so he attached 10 weather balloons to lawn chair took an airpistol and had 'an adventure' that was reported by aircraft as he drifted through air lanes
[23:18] <zmoylan-pi> get a new one before crimbo diddledan
[23:28] <diddledan> every time I watch this I need to force others to also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cxmu1mxK5so
[23:28] <diddledan> it's the new rickroll
[23:29] <diddledan> did I just date myself then?
[23:29] <diddledan> I'm wondering if there are teenagers who don't know what rickrolling is
