| chesedo | hi oom Kilos | 06:30 |
| Langjan | Hey Kilos you still in SA? | 06:47 |
| dlPhreak | How to spot an engineer? | 06:52 |
| dlPhreak | Don't worry they will themselves tell you without asking. | 06:52 |
| dlPhreak | BTW I'm an engineer. | 06:52 |
| Kilos | hi Langjan | 06:54 |
| Kilos | yes applied for new clearance certificate yesterday | 06:54 |
| Kilos | hopefully it will be done in 2 weeks | 06:55 |
| dlPhreak | Where are you going, Kilos | 06:55 |
| Kilos | wanted to go there in summer, but seems it might end up winter | 06:56 |
| Kilos | to visit my daughter and her mom in OZ dlPhreak | 06:56 |
| Langjan | Good, looks like the sloth has awaken | 06:57 |
| Kilos | i was doing dishes man | 06:57 |
| Kilos | oh you mean them | 06:57 |
| Langjan | Handyman! I do ours at night before bed | 06:58 |
| Kilos | haha my sister makes a point of always having dishes for me in the morning | 06:58 |
| Langjan | My wife makes the same point in the evenings, lmga | 06:59 |
| Kilos | lol | 06:59 |
| Kilos | women are so skelm | 07:00 |
| Langjan | but so irresistible | 07:00 |
| Kilos | haha | 07:01 |
| Langjan | Kilos, who's the Libre Office Writer fundi? | 07:01 |
| dlPhreak | Thats cool Kilos | 07:03 |

| Kilos | so say what you need help with and see | 07:04 |
| Kilos | whew | 07:11 |
| Kilos | but lotsa young peeps | 07:11 |
| Langjan | I have been editing loads of docs, suddenly libre office freezes at a specific spot and keeps on doing it, I have Googled arund and tried various fixes, no luck | 07:15 |
| Langjan | In desperation, I cut the whole doc and repasted it, problem solved. After wasting hours seeking a solution. Eish! | 07:29 |
| Langjan | But why the hiccup in the first place? | 07:30 |
| MaNI | if its not an overly personal doc you should file a bug report and send it to them as a sample - so they can look into it | 07:35 |

| andrewlsd | Arcanum_za: how's the slitaz stuff going? | 07:58 |
| andrewlsd | are you using it for snes or visualboy much? | 07:59 |
| Kilos | ohi andrewlsd | 08:07 |
| Langjan | MaNI, thks - nothing personal, who must I send it to? | 08:07 |
| Langjan | Its a 27-page doc | 08:08 |
| cal_py | morning all | 08:08 |
| andrewlsd | ;-) Kilos | 08:08 |
| andrewlsd | morning cal_py | 08:08 |
| Kilos | hi cal_py | 08:08 |
| cal_py | hope everyone is doing well! | 08:09 |
| Kilos | we alive so could be worse | 08:10 |
| Langjan | Guys, is this maaz-coffee thing a kickback from childhood imaginary friends sindrome? lol | 08:11 |
| Langjan | dead could also be better! | 08:12 |
| Kilos | the bots coffee is a fun think and because its cyber coffee you can have lots and not get headaches | 08:18 |
| Kilos | thing | 08:18 |
| Langjan | Good, great to have a bit of fun thrown in | 08:19 |
| Langjan | Cyber, not decaf - the latter is close to politically incorrect | 08:20 |
| Kilos | lol | 08:41 |
| chesedo | oh hi andrewlsd... | 09:27 |
| Kilos | kde hasnt got glibc installed here | 09:27 |
| Kilos | ai! | 09:30 |
| superfly | Kilos: it will | 09:30 |
| Kilos | oh my | 09:31 |
| Kilos | synaptic doesnt show it as installed | 09:31 |
| superfly | the package is not "glic" is something like "libc..." | 09:32 |
| Kilos | ah ty | 09:32 |
| chesedo | apt-file search glibc... | 09:32 |
| chesedo | gnulib and manpage (among others) have it | 09:33 |
| superfly | I think it's actually "libc6" | 09:35 |
| chesedo | there is no package for it except source (according to apt-cache search glibc) | 09:35 |
| superfly | I've just run a apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y and am busy upgrade 261 packages | 09:35 |
| Kilos | ill reinstall all libc packages then if there is an upgrade ill get it | 09:35 |
| Kilos | ok can do that too ty | 09:36 |
| superfly | Kilos: reinstalling is not going to help, and I don't recommend doing only one package | 09:36 |
| Kilos | ok | 09:36 |
| superfly | glibc is such a central package, if you upgrade it but nothing else, you can render your system useless | 09:36 |
| superfly | you'll have a brick instead of a computer | 09:37 |
| Kilos | ah ty | 09:37 |
| Kilos | W: Failed to fetch http://ubuntu.mirror.neology.co.za/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/main/binary-i386/Packages Hash Sum mismatch | 09:38 |
| Kilos | what is that about | 09:38 |
| * chesedo now also thinks it's libc6 (glibc might mean GNU C Library) | 09:42 | |
| superfly | Kilos: use another mirror | 09:44 |
| Kilos | aptitude upgrade is doing lotsa libc5 upgrades | 09:44 |
| superfly | Kilos: there you go | 09:44 |
| Kilos | and all of libre office | 09:44 |
| Kilos | 90 m | 09:44 |
| Kilos | libc6 i mean ty | 09:45 |
| superfly | Kilos: yes, everything that uses glibc needs to be recompiled too | 09:45 |
| Kilos | ah | 09:47 |

| dlPhreak | Yeah, he's too busy for idle chit chat. | 10:00 |
| dlPhreak | Here we go again. | 10:04 |
| Kilos | do nt you see this | 10:05 |
| Kilos | [11:29] [Notice] -kloeri- [Global Notice] It's upgrade all the things day which also means lots of reboots. This will unfortunately be quite noisy. Remember connecting to chat.freenode.net, stay calm and don't panic! | 10:05 |
| dlPhreak | I did not. | 10:06 |
| Kilos | you can set it in your client to show them | 10:06 |
| dlPhreak | irssi shows notices in the server window but I never look at the server window. | 10:07 |
| Kilos | ah | 10:07 |

| Kilos | what | 13:38 |
| Kilos | inetpro dink miskien gou oor huis toe gaan | 14:12 |

| cal_py | I LOVE LINUX! | 14:25 |
| Kilos | well duh | 14:25 |
| Kilos | wb changing drives | 14:28 |
| Kilos | sigh | 15:09 |
| Kilos | konversation on ssd cant connect | 15:10 |
| * Kilos needs to think some | 15:10 | |
| Kilos | coupla drops falling at least | 15:12 |
| Kilos | sigh | 15:28 |
| Kilos | ok i know where i went wrong, i ticked ssl but forgot to change port | 15:37 |
| Kilos | and dont member the port number either | 15:38 |
| chesedo | over here it's just some thunder that passed so far | 15:40 |
| Kilos | 1mm rain | 15:55 |
| Kilos | but enough storm to kill power for a bit | 15:55 |
| inetpro | ai! | 16:05 |
| Kilos | what? | 16:08 |
| inetpro | waar's die reen? | 16:09 |
| Kilos | what was the ssl port please 8880? | 16:09 |
| Kilos | klaar weg | 16:09 |
| Kilos | miskien sal dit later terug kom as die wind sal draai | 16:09 |
| inetpro | you mean for IRC? | 16:10 |
| inetpro | port 7070 | 16:10 |
| Kilos | dankie | 16:10 |
| Kilos | how do i kill this stupid message thing | 16:10 |
| inetpro | "All freenode servers listen on ports 6665, 6666, 6667, 8000, 8001, and 8002, with SSL on 6697, 7000, and 7070" | 16:11 |
| inetpro | stupid message thing? | 16:11 |
| Kilos | often when i start typing that top message thing steals my test | 16:11 |
| inetpro | no idea what you're talking about | 16:11 |
| Kilos | knote or something | 16:11 |
| inetpro | screenshot please | 16:12 |
| Kilos | http://pasteboard.co/1CNPkZpj.png | 16:14 |
| Kilos | now its gone | 16:15 |
| Kilos | sigh | 16:15 |
| Kilos | it didnt show | 16:16 |
| Kilos | makes a tiny window top of screen and the text appears there | 16:16 |
| Kilos | maybe clipboard | 16:17 |
| DalekSec | 6697 is a very typical port for SSL. | 16:17 |
| Kilos | i see a scissors here as well | 16:17 |
| Kilos | ty DalekSec | 16:17 |
| Kilos | yay ty guys | 16:22 |
| === Kilos- is now known as Kilos | ||
| inetpro | hmm... | 16:29 |
| Kilos | inetpro i think its klipper and when i try remove it synaptic say desktop and workspaces will be removed as well | 16:44 |
| Kilos | sigh | 16:44 |
| inetpro | Kilos: is it not simply kde notifications? Look at your settings | 16:50 |
| Kilos | nono man its that thing where you save commands | 16:51 |
| Kilos | here it saves random stuff | 16:51 |
| Kilos | i have no why idea what even starts it | 16:51 |
| Kilos | im on an ssd so all settings and things not sorted yet | 16:52 |
| Kilos | i cant rsync /home because ssd too small | 16:52 |
| Kilos | but its lekker fast | 16:53 |
| Kilos | hehe | 16:53 |
| * chesedo always understood that it is somewhat useless to have /home on the ssd | 17:09 | |
| Kilos | nono you have a /home but just not on a separate partition | 17:25 |
| cal_py | Sup guys! | 17:28 |
| inetpro | hmm... the rain kicked him out again? | 17:58 |
| inetpro | wb chesedo | 17:58 |
| inetpro | chesedo: what would be wrong with having a home on ssd? | 17:59 |
| cal_py | sup inetpro | 18:00 |
| inetpro | hi cal_py | 18:00 |
| cal_py | how are you? | 18:00 |
| chesedo | inetpro: there is no benefit to it, right? | 18:03 |
| inetpro | cal_py: good, good and you? | 18:03 |
| inetpro | chesedo: why not? | 18:03 |
| chesedo | it is just user files so no speed improvement | 18:03 |
| cal_py | good thanks! whats good? | 18:04 |
| inetpro | oh you mean like that, hmm... | 18:04 |
| inetpro | 02/17 20:00:34 <cal_py> how are you? | 18:04 |
| inetpro | chesedo: I assume you're right, I don't think you'll see noticable gains in speed for the home partition on ssd | 18:06 |
| inetpro | but it's just an assumption | 18:06 |
| inetpro | theoretically you should see a benefit though | 18:06 |
| chesedo | and config files have quite some disk writes | 18:06 |
| cal_py | lol inetpro do you use python? | 18:07 |
| inetpro | lots of stuff reads and writes to your home folder during normal operations | 18:07 |
| chesedo | hey, you should... it is just if it is worth the cost | 18:07 |
| inetpro | cal_py: superfly is our resident python "guru" here | 18:08 |
| cal_py | hahaha guru.... | 18:08 |
| cal_py | dl_phreak said you good at the linuxes | 18:08 |
| inetpro | not sure whether he likes to be called a guru | 18:08 |
| inetpro | cal_py: ask away, I'm sure others would be able to help as well | 18:09 |
| inetpro | in here we all just stand on the shoulders of other giants to make us look like we know something | 18:12 |
| chesedo | +1 inetpro | 18:13 |
| cal_py | hahah I had a issue but I've kind of solved it LOL, I was trying to get internet time on boot | 18:16 |
| cal_py | because my RTC stopped working' | 18:17 |
| inetpro | cool | 18:17 |
| cal_py | was trying todo it without having to put the password in for sudo privileges | 18:18 |
| inetpro | cal_py: you mean something like NTP synchronisation | 18:20 |
| inetpro | ? | 18:20 |
| cal_py | exactly inetpro | 18:22 |
| cal_py | I created a script but you need to have elevated privileges to use it | 18:22 |
| inetpro | you can do it the old way with a cron job with command: ntpdate ntpserver | 18:23 |
| inetpro | or the new way with ntpd as a service | 18:23 |
| inetpro | is it a desktop or a server? | 18:24 |
| cal_py | service ntpd restart? | 18:24 |
| superfly | surely ntpd runs as a service, no matter desktop or server? | 18:24 |
| inetpro | true but ntpd is rather chatty | 18:25 |
| inetpro | synching happens continuesly | 18:25 |
| cal_py | can I show you the three lines I found that worked? | 18:25 |
| inetpro | syncing as well | 18:26 |
| inetpro | cal_py: please enlighten us | 18:27 |
| cal_py | #!/bin/bash | 18:28 |
| cal_py | service ntp stop | 18:28 |
| cal_py | ntpd -gq | 18:28 |
| cal_py | service ntp start | 18:28 |
| cal_py | found it on the askubuntu site | 18:29 |
| cal_py | but if you run it at start up, it forces a gk sudo to pop up three times to complete the script | 18:29 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 18:29 |
| inetpro | hmm... | 18:30 |
| Kilos | power came and went a few times then lightning whacked tower | 18:30 |
| cal_py | hmm... | 18:30 |
| Kilos | we had some more rain inetpro | 18:30 |
| Kilos | i go see how much | 18:31 |
| superfly | cal_py: where is your script? and when do you run it? | 18:31 |
| Kilos | 20mm its gonna rain | 18:32 |
| cal_py | I put the script in my home folder and I used gnome start up tools to run it at start up | 18:32 |
| Kilos | cal_py you getting to tame now, just now you break something | 18:35 |
| cal_py | hahaha Kilos software or hardware? | 18:36 |
| Kilos | who knows | 18:36 |
| Kilos | always rememer , if it isnt broken don't try fix it | 18:37 |
| cal_py | hahahaha, but it was at first, computer will be the death of me! | 18:40 |
| cal_py | on a lighter note has anyone tried the Nylas N1 email client? | 18:40 |
| cal_py | afk brb | 18:45 |
| cal_py | anyone here use mate desktop environment? | 18:50 |
| inetpro | superfly: wb | 18:56 |
| superfly | thanks | 18:56 |
| superfly | need to reinstall this VPS | 18:56 |
| inetpro | superfly: reinstall, why? | 18:58 |
| superfly | 32-bit running on a 64-bit architecture | 18:58 |
| inetpro | yikes! | 18:58 |
| superfly | I can't do any upgrading or migrating to take advantage of new features on the platform until I'm using 64-bit | 18:58 |
| inetpro | reminds me of my office desktop | 18:58 |
| inetpro | guess the time for 32-bit is over | 18:59 |
| inetpro | hope you guys have all run your updates and rebooted | 19:00 |
| inetpro | http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-2900-1/ | 19:02 |
| cal_py | how do you find out about this so fast | 19:09 |
| inetpro | see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ | 19:13 |
| inetpro | "These notices are also posted to the ubuntu-security-announce mailing list..." | 19:13 |
