[11:35] <Kilos> oh and inetpro 
[11:39] <pieter2627> Kilos: did you also have a power out yesterday?
[11:39] <Kilos> nope
[11:39] <Kilos> oh yes
[11:39] <Kilos> \but 2 mins
[11:44] <pieter2627> lucky, with that storm we had one for a few hours (isp seems to have been affected this morning)
[11:50] <Kilos> ai!
[18:05] <nasanzero> hi guys
[18:06] <nasanzero> what is the easiest way to cretate a gui application ?
[18:16] <Kilos> hi nasanzero 
[18:17] <nasanzero> hi Kilos
[18:17] <Kilos> what do you want to do
[18:17] <Kilos>  be patient with me head eina
[18:18] <nasanzero> a basic interface written in c to interface with an arduino thru an emulated serial port
[18:19] <kulelu88> dafekk?
[18:19] <Kilos> always remember to explain what you want to do then when one of the guys has a chance hell help
[18:19] <nasanzero> i tried gambas , a visual basic type ide , but it has problems with kde
[18:19] <Kilos> hi kulelu88 
[18:19] <kulelu88> yo oom 
[18:19] <kulelu88> gaanit ?
[18:20] <Kilos> ek lewe nog dankie en slf?
[18:20] <Kilos> self
[18:20] <nasanzero> i am in no rush , its a hobby 
[18:20] <Kilos> busy doing a 14.04 server install for ian
[18:20] <Kilos> someone will give you what you need to know nasanzero 
[18:21] <nasanzero> thanks Kilos
[18:21] <kulelu88> who needs the interface? nasanzero or Kilos 
[18:21] <Kilos> the family guys normally only get active after 8.30 family time
[18:21] <kulelu88> als goed hier oom
[18:21] <Kilos> nasanzero needs help kulelu88 
[18:22] <nasanzero> i do , i just need to know which ide is the easiest to use , i read there are quiet a few qt, gtk , wxwidgets , etc
[18:23] <kulelu88> why can't you interface with the arduino via commandline? 
[18:24] <nasanzero> its a pet project to show to friends , so command line will suit my needs but lacks the woooow factor
[18:26] <kulelu88> building GUIs can be shit hard and take up a lot of time
[18:26] <kulelu88> Kivy might work though
[18:27] <nasanzero> hi kulelu88 , i know ,  i have done them in VB . i like to port the code to linux 
[18:30] <kulelu88> nasanzero: Kivy should be able to handle the interface
[18:30] <kulelu88> its python, so easier to code than C
[18:30] <nasanzero> i am reading about it , thanks kulelu88, i know abit about python
[18:34] <kulelu88> good luck bud
[18:41] <superfly> ohi
[18:41] <superfly> Qt is by far the best GUI library.
[18:41] <superfly> And you can use PyQt or PySide
[18:42] <kulelu88> Kivy seems more appropriate for interfacing with arduino
[18:42] <superfly> Ah
[18:42] <superfly> I've not done that sort of thing
[18:48] <nasanzero> qt creator ?
[18:50] <kulelu88> its 2015 and I wonder why desktop apps are still so difficult
[18:53] <nasanzero> ms has visual studio which is the standard , i guess coz of all the different flavours of linux its hard to standardise it
[18:54] <kulelu88> gtk can run across most linux distros comfortably, but it is split on 2/3
[18:54] <kulelu88> I guess QT is the biggest option now, but it is not *free*
[18:55] <nasanzero> and its c++ , not my language of choice 
[19:06] <nasanzero> i am off good night all
[20:11] <Kilos> ai!
[20:11] <Kilos> as jy kan sukkel sal jy
[20:13] <totimkopf> Kilos: oom :)
[20:13] <Kilos> haha

[20:15] <Kilos> maak my mal
[20:17] <Kilos> server cant see a flash drive
[20:18] <Kilos> when i do lsusb it shows but i cant run rsync from the stick
[20:18] <Kilos> inetpro fix it
[22:17] <Kilos> night all. sleep tight
