[15:13] <superfly> controlling the music on your wife's computer via SSH
[15:14] <superfly> I played a trick on the kids :-D
[15:16] <superfly> Kilos: there's a command line tool called "qdbus" and it can be used to control apps that use DBUS
[15:16] <superfly> which is pretty much the entire KDE system
[15:19] <Kilos> wow
[15:20] <superfly> just open konsole and type "dbus"
[15:20] <Kilos> ok
[15:20] <Kilos> it yes so dbus but givews others
[15:20] <superfly> it shows you all the programs available via DBUS
[15:21] <Kilos> qdbus ibus and gdbus
[15:21] <Kilos> oh my im talking a strange language
[15:22] <Kilos> it said no dbus but asked if i meant those others
[15:24] <superfly> Kilos: the command is "qdbus"
[15:24] <superfly> Kilos: sorry, "dbus" was wrong, my fault
[15:24] <superfly> i typoed
[15:24] <Kilos> haha
[15:25] <Kilos> that makes me feel good
[15:25] <Kilos> too much uses it
[15:26] <Kilos> we just had a power cut from a storm thats brewing
[15:27] <superfly> sjoe
[15:27] <superfly> time to power everythign down and hide under your bed?
[15:28] <Kilos> hahaha
[15:33] <superfly> Kilos: here's an example to increase your volume: qdbus org.kde.kmix /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/increase_volume trigger
[15:34] <Kilos> sjoe
[15:35] <Kilos> and it even works
[15:35] <Kilos> moves volume up about 5% everytime
[15:36] <superfly> Or, if you're in my position, and there's music blaring from your wife's computer downstairs, but she's upstairs with the baby, you can stop the music with: qdbus org.kde.amarok /Player Stop

[18:14] <Langjan> http://southafrica.embassy.gov.au/pret/immi_contacts.html
[18:15] <Langjan> Send an enquiry to immigration.pretoria@dfat.gov.au
[18:23] <Kilos> will do ty Langjan 
[18:26] <magespawn> that is handy to know
[18:26] <Langjan> Its now outside the indicated one month time for processing, so go for it, assuming that you applied for a normal visitors visa?
[18:26] <Kilos> i have mailed the top one i think and got some mail with lotsa stuff mainly saying stuff about time frames but nothing useful
[18:27] <Kilos> ya the 600 one

[18:28] <Langjan> OK Kilos  then they have exceeded their time frame so go for it
[18:28] <Kilos> will do ty very much
[18:28] <Kilos> very stressful this visa nonsense
[18:28] <magespawn> no, just useful to have a place to contact 
[18:29] <Langjan> Its horrible to sit around waiting and hoping and nothing happens 
[18:30] <Kilos> yeah definitely

[18:31] <Kilos> now even the weeds can grow
