daftykinsharro thar03:30
daftykinsi'm watching Inderpendence Day03:31
diddledanthe movie?03:31
nigelbI like some of it. But hate the tech talk.03:31
nigelbWe still can't run windows apps reliably on linux, but we can write code to give a virus to alien spaceships.03:32
daftykinsdiddledan: yep!03:32
daftykinsnigelb: indeed, on a fugging Mac, too03:32
diddledan"send out a signal to bring their shields down"03:32
daftykinsit's just convenient that the aliens are sponsored by intel and run x8603:32
nigelblol03:33
diddledanit's pretty amazing they use the same display tech too03:33
nigelband why would you have a server -> client model for your attack ships03:33
diddledani.e. that an earth virus can display a skull and cross bones and even emit sound03:33
nigelbthere can be no sane reason for it.03:34
diddledanwell that would be so they can update mission objectives for their fighters when they're on a long bombing raid over iraq03:35
diddledanI might have mixed a few metaphors there methinks03:35
diddledan"what is a metaphor?" .. "it's for metting with"03:37
daftykinsclearly they supported MIDI03:44
diddledanI wonder what MIDI sound font they'd be using?03:48
diddledanthat's a bit of an odd description "a cross-platform telephony platform" <-- if it's a "platform" how can it be "cross-platform"?03:49
daftykinsooh that's talk far beyond me03:49

MartijnVdSI shouldn't have thrown out my last PS2 keyboard...08:07
MartijnVdSI'm reviving an old machine and I can't get to its BIOS because "USB Legacy" support is off08:07
diddledanoops08:07
diddledanI'm struggling to get windows10 to connect to my freenas box :-(08:08
MartijnVdSdiddledan: Apparently, I was smart enough to leave "USB CD boot" on, and before "internal HDD"08:08
MartijnVdSso I can boot some rescue image08:08
MartijnVdSdiddledan: what's the problem?08:08
MartijnVdSdiddledan: does Windows 10 see the network as "private" or "public"? Because if it's public -- it firewalls Samba ports08:09
diddledanfirst: the box isn't showing up in windows' network devices list, and second: manually typing //freenas/share or //ip.add.re.ss/share or both without /share gives me a nice unhelpful dialog with a pull-down for extra information that reveals an error of "0x80004005 - unspecified error"08:10
diddledanit's windows, so I actually used \s instead of the /s I wrote above08:11

diddledanthat's a screenie of said window08:13
MartijnVdS*checks*08:15
diddledanit's purely a windows10 issue08:15
diddledanit seems08:15
MartijnVdSdiddledan: if you right click the network icon and go to the "network and sharing centre"08:15
diddledanyup08:16
MartijnVdSdiddledan: then click on the "link" to the network settings, on the right side of the break ("Ethernet" it's called for me)08:17
MartijnVdSoh wait08:17
diddledanyup08:17
MartijnVdSon the left it says "Network", and underneath "Public network" or "Private network"08:18
diddledanyeah it's a private network08:18
MartijnVdS"it means access denied/insufficient rights/wrong permissions"08:19
MartijnVdSdiddledan: what's the samba version on the server?08:19
MartijnVdSdoes it support all the latest protocol versions?08:19
MartijnVdSSMB2/SMB308:20
MartijnVdSautomatic encryption settings08:20
diddledanwell it's something specific to win10 - my win8.1 is seeing it (and other systems that 10 is also unable to see) fine08:20
MartijnVdSdiddledan: windows 10 may have disabled support for the older protocols by default08:21
MartijnVdSdiddledan: for security raisins08:21
diddledanmm raisins08:21
MartijnVdSdiddledan: anyway, https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba3/SMB208:21

AzelphurAnyone happen to know how to resolve this issue? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1602120 I get it from time to time, really annoying12:18
MartijnVdSAzelphur: what kind of graphics chip do you have? and which driver?12:19
AzelphurMartijnVdS: GTX 980, 349.1612:19
MartijnVdSah.. nvidia12:20
MartijnVdSI heard they're bad at linux :P12:20
Azelphursadly better than anything else out there when it comes to gaming12:21
penguin42MartijnVdS: With Nvidia the normal courses are 1) Try the opposite of nouveau (open) or closed driver to theone you're using  2) If you're using the closed driver try a different version of it  3) swear12:23
zmoylan-pi4) goto 112:23
MartijnVdSAzelphur: the high end amd cards seem to be okish?12:24
AzelphurMartijnVdS: fglrx is worse than nvidia last I checked12:24
MartijnVdSAzelphur: don't they have a free driver now?12:25
AzelphurMartijnVdS: the open source driver is painfully slow and unoptimised with masses of missing features, it isn't suitable for gaming last I checked.12:26
AzelphurI wish it was, that'd be awesome, but sadly no12:26
* penguin42 thinks it got a bit closer but then they bought out a new range of chips12:26
MartijnVdSAzelphur: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=AMD-AMDGPU-Released12:29
Azelphurheh, as I say be interesting how it performs12:30
Azelphuralso this new AMDGPU driver confuses me, is it proprietary or nto?12:30
langlee /server irc.UK-IRC.net12:31
penguin42Azelphur: Looks open12:31
Azelphurand gah, guess I'm gonna restart X to get rid of this annoying menu box, brb :)12:31
MartijnVdSAzelphur: the kernel part isn't, but the X driver can be12:32

DJonesfoobarry: Do you expect anything else from Tesco, nicelecy priced devices that are as good as the N7, just crippled with MyTesco app and non-existant support from tesco17:08
foobarryyes, i didn't expect bigfix updates DJones :D17:12

penguin42mapps: Yes, although it's got slower and buggier over the years; it's search is excellent, and it's route search is pretty good19:50
mappsit works brilliant abroad19:56
mappspublic transpor worked in holland germany and czech19:56

diddledanas far as I am aware they were planning on uploading new programming sometime after last wednesday before the final approach to tell it what it should be doing sciency. I wonder if they glitched in that process?21:01
