| <ejer> waah I want my edgy! | |
| <lophyte> so download it and install it | |
| <ejer> ya it is installed | |
| <ejer> just kiddingski | |
| <mylesbraithwaite> lophyte, are you at FOSS? | |
| <ejer> he just left | |
| <La_PaRCa-WoRK> yay edgy! | |
| <SpacePuppy> woot! edgy!! | |
| <SpacePuppy> not many people on the torrent yet.. hardly even 1000 | |
| <SpacePuppy> as i hit enter on that.. it more than double to almost 3000 total seeds/peers | |
| <ejer> downing all the 386 and amd64 versions | |
| <rexbron> lol | |
| <rexbron> gg | |
| <rexbron> I did the final update this morning I guess | |
| <rexbron> hmm, but the text based login still says edgy (development branch) | |
| <rexbron> lophyte: morning | |
| <lophyte> morning | |
| <lophyte> rexbron: what's the best way to get to the symposium tomorrow? | |
| <rexbron> take the subway to downsview | |
| <rexbron> then get on the 196 rocket and take it all the way to york | |
| <SpacePuppy> what building is it in? | |
| <lophyte> yeah, that's what I meant.. | |
| <lophyte> once at york, how do I get there? | |
| <lophyte> ralph is bringing a demo box | |
| <rexbron> ok | |
| <rexbron> If you get off at the main bus loop | |
| <rexbron> it is south and west | |
| <rexbron> you are looking for the Technology enhanced learning building | |
| <rexbron> or rather east | |
| <rexbron> soory bout that | |
| <rexbron> lophyte: have you posted your coding plans yet? | |
| <lophyte> for usus? | |
| <rexbron> ya | |
| <rexbron> I think thats it | |
| <lophyte> not yet | |
| <lophyte> later tonight probably, I've got stuff to do today | |
| <rexbron> ok | |
| <lophyte> right now I'm trying to figure out how to get Xen running | |
| <rexbron> my edgy copy still thinks it in development mode | |
| <rexbron> at least that whats the console says when I log in | |
| <rexbron> I have done a dist upgrade | |
| <rexbron> so I am confused | |
| <lophyte> rexbron: mine doesn't | |
| <rexbron> maybe I need to reboot | |
| <lophyte> most likely | |
| <rexbron> I'll try that | |
| <rexbron> oh shit | |
| <rexbron> I found a nasty bug | |
| <rexbron> when I switch to tty2 and back to the gui, my resolutions goes to hell | |
| <Burgwork> lophyte: can you dig into that loco approval stuff? | |
| <lophyte> oh, right | |
| <lophyte> are you going to make the CC meeting? | |
| <Burgwork> when is that? | |
| <lophyte> it hasn't been updated on the wiki | |
| <lophyte> still says oct 17 | |
| <Burgwork> likely later | |
| <Burgwork> 31st | |
| <SpacePuppy> just tty2? rexbron | |
| <rexbron> hold on | |
| <rexbron> nope | |
| <rexbron> all of them | |
| <rexbron> I have to restart X to get my resoultuion back | |
| <rexbron> I think the DPI may not be returning to normal as the screen is zoomed in | |
| <ejer> hmm | |
| <ejer> how come I can't upgrade to 6.10 with update-manager? | |
| <rexbron> are you running just the updatemanager command? | |
| <ejer> ya got it | |
| <ejer> I tought just -d would do it | |
| <ejer> 957MB to download :( | |
| <rexbron> hey lophyte, I am considering trying to set up a media server, any sugestions on information? | |
| <lophyte> not sure.. I've never done it before.. | |
| <lophyte> search the wikis and forums for ideas I'd say | |
| <rexbron> Just on how to set things up | |
| <Burgwork> lophyte: did you receive those stickers yet? | |
| <rexbron> what I want it to hook up a hdtv box to a machine and have the machine record tv and then play it back to the tv that is connected to it | |
| <lophyte> Burgwork: not yet | |
| <Burgwork> sent express post on Tuesday | |
| <rexbron> but also make it so that anyone else in the house, windows or not, can view it | |
| <lophyte> rexbron: mythtv | |
| <rexbron> hmm | |
| <rexbron> i will check it out | |
| <rexbron> ty | |
| <lophyte> mythtv = pvr software | |
| <Burgwork> rexbron: might want to also checkout elise | |
| <Burgwork> elisa, rather | |
| <rexbron> My thought was to set up a standard ubuntu install and then get a remote that could operate the box | |
| <rexbron> is there software that would let something like a logitec remote do things on a box? | |
| <lophyte> lirc | |
| <rexbron> and what sort of hardware would I need to build to control my settop box | |
| <rexbron> MythTV sounds awsome BTW | |
| <Burgwork> mythtv has serious issues | |
| <lophyte> how so? | |
| <rexbron> Burgwork: How so? | |
| <Burgwork> build issues | |
| <Burgwork> trying to be the world, rather than working with it | |
| <Burgwork> elisa is Fluendos new media centre | |
| <Burgwork> built on gstremer | |
| <lophyte> elisa is also extremely new | |
| <Burgwork> yes, it | |
| <Burgwork> is | |
| <lophyte> with a version number of 0.0.1 I wouldn't trust it further than I could throw it on a production PVR | |
| <lophyte> I've been talking with the guy who works on mythtv in universe and I haven't heard any complaints from him | |
| <lophyte> I'm planning on setting it up when I get a box for it | |
| <rexbron> elisa actually looks pretty good, like if you mix mythtv and elsia | |
| <Burgwork> building on gstreamer is far more sane that mythtvs "be the world" | |
| <rexbron> hmm can elisa record tv? | |
| <lophyte> PVR stuff was under "planned features" | |
| <lophyte> for elisa | |
| <Burgwork> fluendo has two people working on elisa | |
| <rexbron> hmm, then I guess I will need to run mythTV and elisa | |
| <Burgwork> I assume they are likely going to be working on set top thing | |
| <rexbron> because I like the look of elisa but I need to be able to record HDTV | |
| <Burgwork> yep | |
| <Burgwork> however, if you are a python hacker, you can work on elisa | |
| <rexbron> if you you have an HDTV box, do you need special card or can you use a normal card | |
| <lophyte> you need an HD card | |
| <lophyte> which are pricey | |
| <rexbron> ok | |
| <rexbron> hmmm | |
| <rexbron> I will check it out | |
| <rexbron> and see if I can learn | |
| <rexbron> hmm I really would like to help with this project | |
| <rexbron> but need to learn more python | |
| <lophyte> rexbron: http://www.dave-sullivan.com/usus/usus-workflow.odg | |
| <lophyte> http://www.dave-sullivan.com/usus/usus-workflow-footnotes.txt | |
| <lophyte> you wanted to see that.. its still a WIP | |
| <rexbron> yt | |
| <rexbron> ty | |
| <Burgwork> lophyte: did those stickers arrive? | |
| <lophyte> Burgwork: which address did you send to? | |
| <lophyte> I forget which one I put on the SASE | |
| <Burgwork> rexleigh | |
| <lophyte> B14-190 or C24-190 | |
| <Burgwork> b14 | |
| <lophyte> ah | |
| <lophyte> I dunno then, have to ask my parents | |
| <Burgwork> please check | |
| <Burgwork> it should be there today | |
| <lophyte> as of a few hours ago it hadn't arrived | |
| <Burgwork> do you live at home? | |
| <lophyte> nope | |
| <lophyte> hence two different addresses :P | |
| <lophyte> B14 is my parents place, C24 is my place |
