Where does one look for them? [08:06] this is what ive found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AfricanTeams [08:06] wait ill give another link for where to find them [08:07] http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ [08:08] i have just been contacting those i could via email but many have answered [08:08] maybe they dont like my face [08:09] i use the slexy link in ubuntu-africa as a greeting message [08:10] ok [08:11] but Symmetria said his servers are going mad with download and so on so there must be many buntu users out there [08:11] finding them is the thing [08:12] i might try google then... it normally likes me :P [08:12] lol [08:13] ya google isnt my friend, it just gives me more work [09:41] hmm... [09:52] Kilos: i see the africanTeam(s) wiki page list some as missing, does it mean that contact can be established or...? [09:53] s/can/can't/ [09:53] everytime i find one i add them in there or get them to do it and mark them as not missing anymore [09:54] those that show as missing are those that have been inactive for a long time === qwebirc87689 is now known as mopkop === mopkop is now known as mopkop42 [12:39] Hello... [12:40] hi mopkop42 [12:41] hoekom kom jy van die site aff [12:41] af [12:41] Hello oom Kilos! Hoe gaan dit? [12:41] goed dankie en self [12:42] Ek is op die kerk se laptop... [12:42] aha [12:42] Op win Vista. [12:42] eish [12:42] Ek kom nou juis raad soek... [12:42] lol [12:43] watse raad? [12:43] Ek wil graag ubuntu oplaai, maar dit is 'n ou laptop. Dit het net 1GB RAM. So ek wil weet, moet ek Ubuntu MATE of ElementaryOS oplaai? [12:43] Watter een sal die beste loop? [12:43] ek dink elementary maar dis net ek [12:44] hier by my was dit lekker lig [12:44] het not nie ubuntu mate probeer nie [12:44] nog [12:45] elementary lyk baie soos mac [12:45] as ek reg onthou [12:45] afternoon superfly [12:51] Lyk my MATE spesialiseer vir laptops, hoewel elementary mooier lyk... [12:54] kyk na wat mate wil sien in hardeware [12:56] ek het mate op unity instaleer hier eens en dit was vinnig soo gnome 2 [12:56] soos [12:58] good afternoon [12:58] i am using xubuntu [13:01] hi magespawn [13:01] ya mopkop42 xubuntu is ook lig [13:02] and i have found kali to be light too [13:02] but 1g ram is min [13:04] het die ding xp op mopkop42 ? [13:05] Nee Vista.. [13:05] o ja [13:05] lol [13:05] ek vergeet [13:05] Ja, ek het gekyk na xubuntu. Mate lyk mooier :) [13:05] mate is lekker [13:06] soos gnome2 lekker was [13:06] amper anyway [13:07] amper? [13:09] ja die drie goed wat bo was met gnome2 is net 2 , jy moet een van hulle oopmaak om die derde een se goed te sien [13:09] apps en twee ander, ek vergeet wat [13:09] die derde een is nou in die eerste een [13:10] Darem het ek nooit gnome 2 gebruik nie, so ek hoef nie gewoond te raak aan die nuwe goed nie... [13:10] lol [13:13] gnome2 was baie lekker [13:42] Good day everyone, have some Church things to do... [13:53] * nlsthzn sees mention that mate looks good... wait wut? [13:53] * nlsthzn shudders [13:53] lol [13:53] compared to untiy [13:53] unity [13:56] nlsthzn what are you using now [13:56] unity [13:56] oh my [13:56] but I would like to be using gnome 3 [13:56] strange i never tried gnome 3 and now im so happy with kde i might never [13:57] depending on the mix of apps you use there is so much inconsistancies with the way mate looks... issue of gtk2 and gtk3 and the fact that gnome is continiously changing the defaults of how applications should look etc... frustrating for me to use linux at the moment... [13:58] both gnome and kde is doing good stuff and then there is parts that just suck >.< [13:58] no man kde rocks [13:58] it is ok [13:59] a whole year crash free [13:59] more now even [13:59] I am sure that most distro's and interfaces can stay up depending on what you do with it... [13:59] I can crash anything :p [13:59] lol [13:59] well you try fix what wasnt even broken [14:00] messing with games native and via wine really shows some of the less than ideal systems on linux [14:00] i dont even try wine anymore [14:00] crashed unity twice so thats it [14:00] sound and video subsystem is really patchy... perhaps wayland and or mir will help a bit on the video side [14:00] as for the sound... who knows [14:01] must say ubuntu 14.04 is so far giving me no hassle... [14:01] 15.10 is mir hey? [14:01] nope [14:01] not sure when mir will drop [14:01] 14.04 is super stable [14:02] oh i thought it was out in 15.04 [14:02] the .2 update did break a few things which really p*ssed me off but there are always work arounds online :p[ [14:02] not 15.10 [14:02] oh perhaps 15.10 [14:02] broke what [14:02] was thinking of 15.04 [14:03] they haven't ported all of the latest packages to .2 so you can't install them... [14:03] what broke with updates on 14.04 [14:03] makes some wine and steam things not work properly... there is a bug filed but no fix yet [14:03] some mesa gl things [14:03] oh not ubuntu stuff [14:03] add on stuff [14:03] yes core files [14:04] that come with ubuntu normally [14:04] ya but your addons broke them [14:04] no [14:04] must be [14:04] anybody installing 14.04.2 will face this issue... [14:04] im fully up to date and nothing broke [14:04] that is why there is a bug report with many people commenting [14:05] it may be to do with our hardware and the applications we would like to run [14:05] ah [14:05] just because it works for you doens't mean there is nothing broken ;) [14:05] haha [14:05] anyway there is a work around if you find the bug report and read the correct comment [14:06] which reminds me, I have some more Windows applications to install :p [14:06] only real hassles ive ever had have been nm [14:06] eeek [14:06] see [14:06] you break it [14:07] you like putting fiat uno parts in an audi [14:07] oh well... maybe the power of a thousand geeks not strong enough for my foo [14:08] for all of the anti windows sentiment there is a lot of things that it does well... but biased will always make the world look different [14:08] you know what pro and his buddy did to me [14:08] nope [14:08] ya the 7 i run works [14:08] i lent them my sjambok naow they wont give it back [14:09] ... baby bath time... sorry will be back later (perhaps) [14:09] now in gonna apply to be on the council and not lend the stronger sjambok to anyone [14:09] enjoy [14:09] tell them to give it back :p [14:10] they say no more capitoal punishment [14:10] twits [14:10] cyber sjambokking hurt no one [14:31] Kilos, not sure why you would have a sjambok... nobody here is a slave... all volenteers last time I checked :p [14:36] wow now you starting too [14:37] i give up [14:37] and become a beggar again [14:37] volunteers [15:33] dankie nlsthzn [15:33] at least someone who agrees with me :-) [15:34] good afternoon everyone [15:34] oh and hi Kilos [15:34] I know it can be frustrating uncle Kilos ... best you can do is your best and those it inspires will add more value... most won't... this is the nature of the beast...
