[13:22] hot and yourself? [13:22] lekker got fan blowing on me [13:23] hehe [13:23] actuaaly a bit too cool for total comfort [18:41] Hi all [18:41] You ok Kilos ? [18:42] Hi nsnzero [18:43] nsnzero, thanks for asking the other day, yes it was me trying to get second drive connected to network [18:43] sorry did not see you on the chat since [18:52] hi Langjan - no problem - i frequently get disconnected - mobile networks ??? [18:55] Eish! And I get upset when my adsl gets disconnected once in a blue moon! [18:58] lol - its very irritating when chatting - it sometimes update after the 5th or 6th reply as been sent ... leaving me in the dark [18:59] Yes I know what you mean, have been connected on mobile a few times (too many) [19:00] are you still having trouble with samba / network ? [19:02] Well I have network connected but only the files and folders, my actual mission is to be able to set Timeshift to backup snapshots to my additional hard drive - this is still eluding me [19:03] That is backups from my other machine, connected via router and ethernet [19:05] you can mount a samba shared drive as an actual device on your computer - remote drive [19:06] i know how to do that on a local network [19:06] My computer mounts it automatically, n problem, but the second cmputer is the issue [19:08] Computers network via smb [19:08] what happens in the second computer ? [19:09] It does not see the backup drive in my machine [19:10] ok quick checklist - did you enable file sharing via nemo ? right click on device enable file sharing ... [19:11] I have done that, it does not seem to "take" - next time settings are lost [19:12] Oh and I'm no longer on Nemo, am using Nautilus [19:13] i had that problem once - its was because i wasnt the actual user / root for the 2nd HDD [19:13] Langjan: why did you make the switch? :) [19:13] hi smile [19:14] hi nsnzero we never really talk, but just say hi :p is that intentional? [19:15] i just dont like not greeting someone [19:16] Hi smile, what switch? From Nemo? It was suggested to me that Nautilus has more features and I do prefer it to Nemo - if it works, which it seems to be doing now [19:17] Langjan: yes :) that's what I wanted to hear [19:17] nsnzero: okay :) [19:18] smile: how did it go with the Mozilla addon ? [19:18] yeah im ok ty Langjan just busy making supper [19:18] I had to delete some cinnamon files that apparently get installed for some reason and then mess up [19:18] Good Kilos [19:18] Kilos: good evening [19:18] hi nsnzero Langjan [19:19] Hii again Kilos [19:19] 16.04 has given you hassles hey [19:19] nsnzero: well, actually I found a lot more bugs :p I fixed what I could, but now the translation will be limited to 150 characters because of a bug in Firefox itself [19:19] my kde works lekker [19:19] I hope they'll resolve it, otherwise I'll have to find a workaround [19:19] the Mozilla peeps are very friendly :) [19:21] :) [19:21] you always breaking stuff smile [19:21] i hope they expedite the matter smile [19:21] Kilos: no, Mozilla peeps always breaking stuff! :D [19:21] lol [19:21] I filed two or three bugs in two days time! :o [19:22] Its the young and the aged that seem to break most stuff [19:22] Langjan: the aged break bones, the young break other stuff :p [19:22] Lmga! [19:22] :D [19:22] like hearts...? [19:22] yeah ;) [19:23] Thats cruel [19:23] lol [19:23] nsnzero: yeah, I could implement a workaround if I spend an hour on it, but for now I'll keep it this way [19:23] one thing is everyone gets here if they lucky [19:23] I used to do it [19:23] in hospital many 45 year olds with heart attacks [19:23] maybe after I've used the sidebar API in my addon, when a new release is due, that I'll include a workaround [19:24] Those are not broken, they're abused [19:24] Langjan: if love is what unites us, then love equally divides us :p [19:25] smile, true love cannot divide [19:26] smile: you will probably have to translate a word or three at a time ... [19:27] Langjan: it divides lovers that were previously together [19:27] Langjan: did you check if you have root permission on the 2nd HDD ? [19:27] nsnzero: yeah, but some users prefer to translate whole texts :p [19:28] sorry nsnzero I dont know how, will have to google it [19:29] smile: thats right i was thinking of a buffer but i realized firefox is giving you 150 characters only [19:29] nsnzero: indeed :) [19:29] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1338898 [19:31] Langjan did you chown it?
