[06:19] <ducasse> good morning everybody
[06:23] <Bashing-om> Ahhh ,, great ,, the day crew is arriving . Hiya ducasse :)
[06:25] <OerHeks> heya ducasse
[06:45] <ducasse> everybody good? :)
[06:49] <Bashing-om> Just 'bout to the point of retirement for the evening .
[06:50] <ducasse> go get some sleep, Bashing-om
[06:51] <Bashing-om> soon .. see how what I left hanging .. works out .. no bad job left undone .
[07:13] <Bashing-om> Still hang'n .. but no resolution in sight . gone gone is me :)
[08:32] <Kurowa> hello?
[11:34] <BluesKaj> 'Morning all
[11:40] <ducasse> wb BluesKaj, are you happy with the rpi3? i'm thinking of ordering one so i can use the rpi2 for experiments..
[11:42] <daftykins> :D
[11:42] <daftykins> i solved the problem with my pi3 talking to my onkyo receiver, so it's a proper music streamer now
[11:43] <BluesKaj> HI ducasse , I haven't formed an opinion yet ..not sure what I'm going to do with it next  :-)
[11:54] <ducasse> hi, daftykins - how's the soldering going?
[11:54] <daftykins> \o
[11:54] <daftykins> ah i've done nothing since that motherboards capacitors
[11:54] <ducasse> BluesKaj: i use the rpi2 as a media box with openelec, would be nice with a bit more oomph though
[11:54] <daftykins> i always hear the pi3 is a lot faster for Kodi but i wouldn't use one personally
[11:55] <ducasse> i was thinking of replacing the rpi2 with a 3, and use the 2 for electronics tinkering
[11:55] <ducasse> the rpi3 still won't do hevc, which is a drawback
[11:56] <daftykins> ja
[11:57] <daftykins> but then HDR capable HEVC has only just been birthed really, some low power device will turn up eventually
[11:58] <ducasse> yes, the openelec people are sponsored by a company that makes one - wetek something, i think. looks nice, and has a proper remote and other things the rpi lacks.
[11:58] <BluesKaj> yeah , already have kodi on this pc and it works well, no need for redundancy. I'm thinking of using the rpi3 as a pc/media system for my den..I still have an ethernet connection and monitor there
[11:59] <daftykins> yay wired \o/
[11:59] <daftykins> ducasse: mmm i think they might even be kodi devs o0 or ex-devs
[12:01] <ducasse> the openelec people are doing a good job, it does the job well.
[12:02] <daftykins> nah that project died, they all moved to libreelec i heard
[12:02] <daftykins> because openelec is way behind on the release front
[12:03] <ducasse> news to me, last i heard was a new beta was coming?
[12:03] <BluesKaj> also have an old unresueable pc that should be sent to recyling ..never seem to get around to throwing thjose things out
[12:05] <BluesKaj> unrescueable even
[12:05] <daftykins> :D
[12:05] <daftykins> hoping to reduce my collection very soon
[12:05] <BluesKaj> spellcheck here is hopeless
[12:07] <ducasse> also have an old pc here i don't know what to do with, i've thrown out everything else. it quickly piles up :)
[12:46] <BluesKaj> daftykins, oh btw I tried libreelec, seemed ok , but too retrictive for my taste ..probly a good tv box OS if that's all one needs it for
[16:34] <daftykins> BluesKaj: oh yeah, i only really consider Kodi for dedicated HTPCs to be honest, a fully OpenGL 10 foot UI program for a desktop or laptop app makes no sense to me :>
[18:53] <OerHeks> ... https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/powershell-is-open-sourced-and-is-available-on-linux/
[18:59] <baizon> and nobody will use it :D
[18:59] <baizon> bash > powershell
[19:34] <Bashing-om> "ksft: " .. *me* bangs head on table again .
[20:00] <OerHeks> oh, he is on 14.04 with LTS stack
[20:00] <OerHeks> silly we didn't know
[20:06] <OerHeks> ohhh i love frankenstein-ubuntu
[20:07] <dax> I see why HWE is a thing, but it sure does make support harder.
[20:08] <dax> I assume 14.04 + xenial HWE = no fglrx?
[20:09] <Bashing-om> dax: No .. we are Nvidia .. have ben trying for 2 days to get the GUI to load with proprietary drivers .. uh huh .. HWE bites us back .. seems like .
[20:18] <OerHeks> .. vmware..
[21:26] <daftykins> dax: yeah that's my deduction, due to the kernel version + x.org, but also you'll hit legacy status cards like a .nl fella we had in -uk earlier today
[21:26] <daftykins> not quite sure why they come in for support :(
