| shakes808 | Good evening everyone | 01:04 |
|---|---|---|
| cmaloney | Howdy | 01:04 |
| shakes808 | I have been googling around trying to find out how to get my camera to work on my laptop and nothing yet. Was wondering if anyone could help me :) I have tried cheese and modprobe via ubuntu forums but not it :| | 01:05 |
| cmaloney | Which camera? | 01:06 |
| shakes808 | the integrated web cam | 01:06 |
| shakes808 | I had it working at one point. | 01:06 |
| cmaloney | Which laptop? | 01:06 |
| shakes808 | Then i was messing with my partitions and couldn't get anything back | 01:06 |
| shakes808 | Wiped my entire computer, reinstalled Ubuntu on the entire drive and now I can't get it to work again | 01:06 |
| cmaloney | Also: Doesn't work with what? | 01:07 |
| rick_h_ | evening | 01:07 |
| cmaloney | Evening rick_h_ | 01:07 |
| shakes808 | Only ever used it with Google Hangouts | 01:07 |
| cmaloney | shakes808: What model laptop? | 01:07 |
| shakes808 | It used to work before I had to wipe my drives | 01:07 |
| shakes808 | OOOOH | 01:07 |
| shakes808 | Dell Inspiron 1545 | 01:07 |
| cmaloney | less story, more explanation. ;) | 01:07 |
| shakes808 | haha sorry | 01:07 |
| cmaloney | And which version of Ubuntu? | 01:08 |
| shakes808 | LTS | 01:09 |
| cmaloney | Which LTS? :) | 01:09 |
| mrgoodcat | 9 hours down, 2 to go | 01:09 |
| shakes808 | 14.04 | 01:09 |
| cmaloney | shakes808: WHat have you tried so far? | 01:13 |
| shakes808 | getting cheese and modprobe. found those on the ubuntu forum | 01:14 |
| cmaloney | and does cheese work? | 01:17 |
| shakes808 | cheese seems to work, but not when I am trying to do google hangots. | 01:18 |
| shakes808 | hangouts | 01:18 |
| cmaloney | OK so if cheese is working then the camera is working | 01:21 |
| cmaloney | Did you "allow" flash access to your camera? | 01:21 |
| shakes808 | I believe so | 01:21 |
| cmaloney | Check. :) | 01:21 |
| shakes808 | checking | 01:22 |
| shakes808 | everything is set to ask when something is going to be accessing my camera and/or mic | 01:26 |
| cmaloney | OK, so if you go to Google Hangouts what happens? | 01:26 |
| shakes808 | The light for the camera goes on and off and then nothing. Then nothing appears in the spot it is for me and they can't see me | 01:27 |
| cmaloney | Click on the video camera icon and see if that lets you turn it on | 01:28 |
| cmaloney | It seems there isn't a problem at the OS level to get you access to the camera | 01:29 |
| cmaloney | so something related to hangouts isn't getting the camera | 01:29 |
| shakes808 | hmmmm | 01:31 |
| shakes808 | So, I guess I don't need a camera ;) | 01:38 |
| shakes808 | Thank you for your help | 01:38 |
| shakes808 | rick_h_: Hello Rick, question about Bookie. What frameworks does it use? | 01:44 |
| rick_h_ | shakes808: pyramid for python, celery for job running, YUI for JS | 01:44 |
| rick_h_ | pyramid for the python web app I should say | 01:44 |
| shakes808 | cool. Looking to get back in Python | 01:45 |
| rick_h_ | cool, it's a happy place | 01:45 |
| shakes808 | last time I touched it was the last time I was coming to the Wednesday meets | 01:45 |
| rick_h_ | gotcha | 01:46 |
| shakes808 | rick_h_: how are the interns? | 02:00 |
| rick_h_ | heh, they've grown up | 02:00 |
| rick_h_ | naw, there's folks hacking on things but it's more ad-hoc and I've had a hard time keeping up with work/surgery/etc | 02:00 |

| rick_h_ | brousch: ask him if he's on duty wed nights...say 8pm ish...and wants a free coffee :) | 13:37 |
| brousch | Do they have donuts? | 13:37 |

| widox | sad | 14:16 |
| rick_h_ | going to london on friday night so running out of days for it to get here | 14:16 |
| wolfger | Morning. | 15:10 |
| wolfger | brousch: cmaloney: That is interesting that Win 8 lets you see your bootup time and what impacts that. First good thing I've ever heard about Win 8. | 15:11 |
| cmaloney | First scary bit for the morning: getting a knock on the door from neighbor that there was a mound of ice under our outside spigot. | 15:21 |
| rick_h_ | did you tell him "of course it's ice, it's cold outside!"? | 15:22 |
| cmaloney | Her, and the main issue was it should have been turned off | 15:22 |
| rick_h_ | :) | 15:22 |
| cmaloney | Humor levels are not at minimum levels. Please try again later. :) | 15:25 |
| cmaloney | That and someone decided it'd be a good idea to put a .lnk file in a directory that usually handles .csv files | 15:26 |
| cmaloney | To which Python correctly interprets as "There's a fucking NULL in this file" | 15:27 |
| cmaloney | Which has the added benefit of having me try to figure out where the NULL is in a direcotry of .csv files. | 15:27 |
| cmaloney | and realizing later on that the code (that I wrote) isn't bright enough to try globbing. | 15:28 |
| brousch | cmaloney: I had a spigot break last winter. Made a nice big ice stalagmite | 15:54 |
| brousch | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/dq0o5LXr | 15:55 |
| rick_h_ | brousch: lol ty for your comfort | 15:55 |
| rick_h_ | you forgot to mention the free coffee :P | 15:55 |
| brousch | hah | 15:56 |
| brousch | They probably get that anyways | 15:56 |
| cmaloney | This is why I dress like a hobo. :) | 18:23 |
| cmaloney | Also: Finding out there's an instrumental metal music setting for your Smart Mix plugin for Squeezebox = A+ | 18:24 |
| * cmaloney is listening to Animals as Leaders - CAFO | 18:24 | |
| wolfger | Animals as Leaders..... that's a documentary, innit? | 18:46 |
| ColonelPanic001 | that's a band | 18:56 |
| _stink_ | a rubber band | 18:57 |
| cmaloney | An awesome band. | 19:10 |
| wolfger | a rare band, a rattlin' band, a band down in the valley-o? | 19:20 |
| * cmaloney is listening to Peter Schilling - The Different Story (World of Lust and Crime) | 20:16 | |
| cmaloney | I'll send something nice to the person who can name the single that this guy sang that everyone knows but few know who performed it. | 20:17 |
| cmaloney | (no Wikipedia) | 20:17 |
| * brousch wishes he could see cmaloney twitch as he reads my tablet recommendation for his wife | 21:23 | |
| rick_h_ | lol | 21:27 |
| cmaloney | brousch: Pay no attention to that whistling sound overhead. | 23:39 |
