LangjanHe wanted to buy with 14.04 preloaded, deler would not...eish!10:43
Langjandealer10:43
Langjanwhy?10:43
mazalLot's of issues10:43
Langjannever had issues on my wifes machine10:43
Langjanwin 7 factory install, ubuntu 14.04 dual boot only a pleasure10:44
Kilosbest is squeeze win into first 50g and then linux the rest of it10:44

Kiloshehe10:45
Kilosgaan speel toppie10:46
Langjanseriously mazal you recommend not to go that way, dual boot?10:46
LangjanMy dual is on desktop, is issues with laptop?10:46
mazalIs a personal preference of mine Langjan , if you don't have problems with it go for it. 10:47
Langjanok will see how it goes, thks10:47
Kilosman dont listen to a gamer10:48
Kilosai!10:48
mazalOk server back up , sorry users :P10:48
Kiloslol10:48
mazalFortunately it's Friday afternoon so nobody working anyway10:49
mazalI'm lucky with my dealer. When I buy I can specify " No OS "10:54
mazalIn desktops anyway , laptops not10:55
mazalHey Kilos I have an idea10:55
Kilos?11:00
mazalnvm11:01
mazalmaaz tell langjan http://itsfoss.com/install-ubuntu-1404-dual-boot-mode-windows-8-81-uefi/11:15
Maazmazal: Righto, I'll tell Langjan on freenode11:15
Kilosi dual booted 14.04 on win7 here on this lappy when i got it and it worked finew11:27
mazalThe UEFI and Secure boot thing of Win 8+ can cuase headaches. From what I read11:29
mazalHaven't needed to do it myself. Last time I did it was Win XP days11:30
Kilosi dont even know if uefi was involved here11:31
Kilosinstall just worked11:31
mazalI used a different way for a while. Installed ubuntu on external hdd. Worked great as your OS and apps went where youu went. But performance wise very slow11:37
mazalEven on USB311:37
mazalBarry still does it till today though11:37
Kilosstarnge usb3 is slow11:38
Kilosstrange11:38
mazalNot really11:38
mazalInternal drive is faster11:38
Kilos " I love usb3 .. just did a speed test for guy on Linux Europe.... 47 GB iso file...... 6 seconds. "11:38
Kilosthas not slow at all11:39
mazalYeah in copying data terms is fine11:39
mazalBut running OS from it is slower than internal11:39
Kilosah11:40
mazalWell for the first bit anyway11:40
mazalOnce all apps is open and running it is not big difference. But the booting and opening of apps is slower11:40
Kilosok11:40
mazalBut it's nice having your axact same stuff at work and at home the whole time. I worked like that for more than a year I think11:42
mazalAnd could leave the Winbloze pc alone for it's games11:42
Kilosyes11:42
mazalBut with SSD at home machine now I won't even concider USB3 for my OS11:44
Kilosssd actually lekker fast11:45
Kilosim happy this one is still going11:45
mazalI can now actually for the first time test it properly. My home pc and work pc has exact same OS and apps. But this one is HDD11:45
mazalAnd home faster for sure.11:46
mazalAnd home one has slower CPU actually. This one i7 , home on I511:46
mazalNow I crave a tjoklit11:50
mazalmaaz do you have tjoklits ?11:50
Maazmazal: I already know stuff about do you11:50
mazalAnd all our shops closed :(11:51
Kilosai! dont talk about those things11:55
mazalwhy ?11:55
Kilosyou make my mouth cry11:55
mazalOk I'll nibble on a cookie instead11:55
Kiloslol11:56
* mazal schedules weekend plans11:58

Kiloslol14:39
Kilosdo you understand xml stuff14:40
paddatrapperKinda. You use tags and stuff14:40
Kilosi have under taken a task but will need to set up a team to help14:41
paddatrapperWorked with it quite a lot when I was maintaining Java applications14:41
paddatrapperWhat does it entail?14:41
Kilostranslation into afrikaans14:41
Kiloshttp://raisingphoenicia.com/localization14:42
paddatrapperAh, cool14:42
Kilosi dont know if we do it onbline or copy that and set it up here14:42
Kilosonline14:43
Kilosthen we can distribute it to school kids i think14:43
Kilosmaybe even pre primary schools14:43
paddatrapperLooks interesting!14:44
Kiloshttp://raisingphoenicia.com14:44
Kilosdo you understand it?14:44

Kiloshi gremble 14:52
grembleHow are you Kilos?14:52
Kilosgood ty and you?14:52
grembleI am well thank you14:52
grembleI never knew how useful a drop-down terminal could be14:53
grembleubuntu mate has this really nice feature where you get a terminal by pressing f12 14:53
Kiloswhat is a dropdown terminal14:53
grembleIt is always open, just hidden14:53
grembleIt is a terminal that "drops down" from the top of your screen14:54
Kilosoh14:54
Kilosone can get it in kde as well but i didnt know what it was so didnt bother14:54
Kiloseasy enough to open terminals here with ctrl+T14:55
* chesedo is away from home this weekend Kilos 15:02
Kilosok15:06
Kiloslol15:06
Kiloswill catch you when you come back15:07
paddatrapperKilos: Had a look at that localization - we need to create a "Locale Pack" that includes the xml manifest with word translations, ogg audio translations of words and visual images it seems16:37
Kiloshaha paddatrapper say that in english16:38
paddatrapperSo, yes, would need to download and work on it locally in a source tree and then submit it16:38
Kilosoh like merging when using bzr16:38
paddatrapperthat manifest.xml file allows you to add text translations - bv. cat -> kat, then we need to record the audio clips - cat.ogg of a voice saying 'kat', and optionally textures if the word is seen on objects in the game16:39
Kilosholy smokes16:40
Kilosmike said its quite easy16:40
paddatrapperThese all get kept together in the Locale Pack which we maintain like we would any other piece of software - launchpad perhaps? and submit it to them16:41
Kilosso its text words and audio as well16:41
Kilosi thought it was just text 16:41
paddatrapperIt shouldn't be too difficult as the framework is already given. Looks like it is definitely the sound of each letter, don't know if it is each word as well16:42
Kilosbut we can make a team, im sure we can get it done16:42
Kilosoh yes sounds16:42
Kiloswill need sounds of the words as well i think16:43
paddatrapperSure. I have the recording equipment, but not the accent.  can look around and find someone to be the voice actor16:44
paddatrapperLooking at it again - yes 1 recording for each word and 2 for letters - one for the name of the letter and one for it's sound16:44
Kiloswhew16:45

LangjanHi guys, Kilos 17:24
MaazLangjan: By the way, mazal on freenode told me "tell langjan http://itsfoss.com/install-ubuntu-1404-dual-boot-mode-windows-8-81-uefi/" 6 hours, 8 minutes and 57 seconds ago17:24
paddatrapperHey Langjan 17:25
paddatrapperGot to go eat17:25
Kilosnaand17:25
KilosLangjan wen jy17:26
LangjanEk sien nou lyk my ek moet eers 'n partisie in win maak want ubuntu sien nie die win installasie nie17:27
Langjandankie vir die inligting17:27
Langjanhi paddatrapper 17:27
Langjaneet lekker17:27
Kilosyes make the windows about 50g17:28
Kiloswhat size drive is in there17:28
Langjan450gb17:29
Langjanand 64 bit17:29
Kilosyou might need to boot from a win7 dvd to make the partitions17:29
Kilosi did that here and then after using it a couple of months wiped win and did a clean install17:30
Langjanacc to the link you sent I can partition from win 1017:30
Kiloscool17:31
Kilosthat was mazal17:31
Langjanlet me try that17:31
Langjanoh ok thks mazal 17:31
Langjanyes I see now17:31
Langjanhad to set boot sequence, its set to ignore dvd17:32
Kilosat first this lappy refused to take linux17:32
Kiloswas something i had to allow in bios as well17:32
Kilosevery different make has their own quirks17:33
Kiloswhat was that link for paddatrapper 17:34
Kilosi see mhall there as well17:34
Kilosdo we have to supply a map too?17:34
LangjanHow do I see what windows version is in the machine?17:54
Langjanit only wants to shrink to 50%, about 230GB17:54
Kilosdoesnt it show when booting17:54
Langjanmaybe, did not notice17:54
Kiloswell you dont want to mess it up so accept that size17:55
Langjanit says its using only 25GB but wants to keep halvies17:55
Langjanthink so?17:55
Kilosonce he is used to linux and needs more space you can wipe it for him and clean install buntu on it17:56
Kilosgreedy17:56
Langjanok makes sense17:56
pavlushkaKilos: very greedy, :p17:56
Kilosgparted could shrink it more i think but dont take a chance of messing it up now17:56
Langjantheres al 13 gb recovery partition?17:57
Kilosye that for if win crashes17:57
Kilosafter i saw my lappy worked lekker with kde i wiped everything17:57

Langjanstill stiff, needs running in, thats why takes so much time to install20:20
Cryterionprob designed for win10, yuk, but you'll always get small hiccups20:21
LangjanPaper work refers to Ubuntu as one option20:22
Kiloswhen it says setting up hardware and installing grub its close20:22

Langjanaye20:26
CryterionI'd just kill it, then run win in vb if needed20:26
Kilosafter warranty up wipe it and install ubunu only20:26
Langjanthey keep pestering me to upgrade on my wife's machine20:26
Kilosdont upgarde20:26
CryterionOS change doesn't/shouldn't void warranty by legal means20:27
