| <popey> afternoon all | |
| <popey> ish | |
| <LoudMouthMan> hello Popey | |
| <LoudMouthMan> ish | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> popey: nearly :) | |
| <LoudMouthMan> nah Popey is in a quantum ,time flux paradox that state shifts his realitx matrix to 5 minutes ahead of the phased time parrabola. this enables him to synergise his effective proactive delivery synergies to maximise his stateful production. | |
| <popey> no | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> Oh, I see | |
| <popey> the clock is wrong on my pc | |
| <LoudMouthMan> or that ! | |

| <GazzaK> you guys are funny | |
| <NeilSimmons> it's his fault ------> | |

| <apokryphos-> hi | |
| *** apokryphos- is now known as apokryphos | |
| <popey> well, yes | |
| <popey> there are two stable releases, dapper and edgy | |
| <X3N> wiki tables are a pain | |
| <X3N> infact wiki editing is a pain | |
| <X3N> i can never tell wtf is going on | |
| <X3N> "you put an extra space after the letter t, this means that the page now displayed upside down and pink with yellow text" | |
| <X3N> +is | |
| <LoudMouthMan> no X3N thats a second quote after the third t , unless youre using a square bracket on a wednesday | |
| <X3N> :) | |
| * popey loves wikis | |
| <LoudMouthMan> popey sorry I thought i was still here when I was there. | |
| <X3N> they're good in letting people contribute and for quick stuff | |
| <X3N> they could have made the wiki language nicer though | |
| <LoudMouthMan> <sarcasm>yeah .. some sort of wysiwyg editing would be cool </sarcasm> | |
| <LoudMouthMan> X3N . grin sorry .. cant help that one. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> MoinMOin has a nice import from OpenOffice . | |
| <X3N> wordpress has a good enough editor | |
| <X3N> and rscms uses html | |
| <LoudMouthMan> yeah , it think the value of a wiki is that it works in the simplest browser. but I do like the wordpres one . and yeah you could have a opt in I spose. | |
| <X3N> this makes me happy http://www.michaelwood.me.uk/rscms/editpage.html | |
| <popey> there are wysiwyg editors | |
| <popey> microsoft outhouse for the web uses an activex control to do it | |
| <popey> (others are available) | |
| <snail> heh, just found a security oops with "unbreakable linux" | |
| <snail> http://connect.educause.edu/blog/stuartyeates/oracle_unbreakable_linux_mortal_after_all/13890 | |
| <Seeker`> sheepeatingtaz: good luck | |
| <VooDoo> linux sucks. | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> Seeker`: cheers :) | |
| <X3N> nothing is unbreakable | |
| <X3N> ^ double meaning | |
| <VooDoo> unbreakable platic tubs? | |
| <selinuxium> tonka toys? | |
| * popey farts all over ADSL (so called) Max | |
| * VooDoo pukes at the smell | |
| <X3N> I'm quite windy today, always happens when i've been up for 24+ hours | |
| <selinuxium> X3N: Why? I used to have to do that for work... | |
| <X3N> I don't know | |
| <X3N> I'm no doctor | |
| <X3N> although Dr michael wood does have a nice ring | |
| <GazzaK> arghhh, :'( solicitors & housemoving is gonna kill me | |
| <Seeker`> woo, holiday in 4 hours | |
| <GazzaK> not fair :-( | |
| <LoudMouthMan> what is this thing you call holiday ? | |
| <GazzaK> X3N, lol - "Dr michael wood does have a nice ring" hahahaaa | |
| <GazzaK> sorry, my "wrong" mind found that really funny | |
| <mrben> rofl | |
| <NeilSimmons> hehehe. . . my gf just tried to use the new keyboard she'd bought me... | |
| <NeilSimmons> I heard. . typetypeswearbackspacetypebackspaceswearswear. . . then "honey, would you put the old keyboard back?" | |
| <NeilSimmons> <grin> | |
| <LoudMouthMan> heheh | |
| <Seeker`> LoudMouthMan: I'm not going to work for the next 3 days so i can help my girlfriend move house. thats what holiday is. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> sigh .. heres something else that occurs all to often . A Client has a SW Company ask me to fill in a siteaudit in preperation for a software install which i do. then they turn up and say " oh your missing a windows 2003 fileserver and exchange" , "yes" say "i mentioned that in writting and we all signed that spec, so whats up". "Oh" reply the software company " our product needs that to work, could you just install it for us", " No" reply I "you | |
| <LoudMouthMan> can go explain to the client why you dont read the things you sign". | |
| <Seeker`> heh, my brother wants me to build a computer for him. He also wants me to get hold of a free copy of windows for him | |
| <LoudMouthMan> Seeker then now is the time to tell him to not be a frelling cheapskate and just get a Dell for £349 | |
| <Seeker`> he would pay for me to build the computer | |
| <LoudMouthMan> then install a Dual Boot of Ubuntu which you will use to rescue his sorry ass when he gets pwned for the umpteenth time on downloading morpheus. | |
| <Seeker`> so i told him either pay for windows, or be sensible and use linux | |
| <LoudMouthMan> Seeker sure then tell him it will cos £500 to do it | |
| <LoudMouthMan> use the £500 to buy a dell and put linux on as dual boot <grin> . since hes going to want to use windows tell him the other partition is the dell rescue service. | |
| <Seeker`> apparently he needs windows to do work with flash | |
| <LoudMouthMan> building computers I think today has only a value for either a ) little fanless shoebox appliances or b) big frack off game boxes. | |
| <DaveMorris> or to learn | |
| <LoudMouthMan> but for workstation boxes Dell Optiplex 210 MLs for £455+vat or the Dimension 3100 for £349 are a good deal. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> DaveMorris.. true. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> Davemorris. but to be honest i wasnt thinking about building to learn so sorry <grin. | |
| <DaveMorris> no probs | |
| <LoudMouthMan> So Seeker do you want to build one or just pocket the money <grin> | |
| <Seeker`> he wants to do a lot of graphics work | |
| <LoudMouthMan> well both boxes come with a spare pci express slot so he can beef up the video if required. | |
| <Seeker`> hmm | |
| <LoudMouthMan> and shiny 19" monitors | |
| <LoudMouthMan> lcd at that | |
| <Seeker`> hmm | |
| <GazzaK> shiny monitors, wooo | |
| * X3N scowles at GazzaK | |
| <GazzaK> what 'ave I done now | |
| <GazzaK> oh, hehe | |

| * Ubugtu splats GazzaK with a large hammer for being wrong | |
| <GazzaK> hehe, just had "giles" from diskeeper on the dog and bone, trying to sell me software | |
| <GazzaK> I asked him if his diskeeper product could defrag ext3 and reiserFS file systems, he went all quiet | |
| * X3N has been sitting here trying to think what his scowling face looks like | |
| <X3N> i've been trying out a few, but they're more frowning than scowling | |

| <LoudMouthMan> gosh wasnt that nwmars or the like / | |
| <selinuxium> LoudMouthMan: is that an app? | |
| <Seeker`> grr, parcelforce suck | |

| <LoudMouthMan> i'll go check | |
| <selinuxium> LoudMouthMan: cheers :) | |
| <LoudMouthMan> hey I may not find it. ! | |
| <VooDoo> time to go home yet? | |
| <GazzaK> @pity VooDoo for his dodgy /part message earlier | |
| * Ubugtu smacks VooDoo with a big clue-by-four for his dodgy /part message earlier | |
| <GazzaK> nearly | |
| <VooDoo> well thats BitchX for you | |
| <GazzaK> 3:40pm, eek, thats like one hour and 50 min :-( | |
| <GazzaK> * VooDoo has quit ("Erection reset by queer") | |
| <GazzaK> that one :-p | |
| * VooDoo blush | |
| <GazzaK> funny though | |
| <VooDoo> aye | |
| <VooDoo> :s i think | |
| <VooDoo> let see what it is this tome. | |
| <VooDoo> just as crap | |
| <VooDoo> apart from PHP whats a good language to learn for reading a mysql database and piping the results to a html file? | |
| <DaveMorris> what do you know already? | |
| <DaveMorris> you could go over the top and use .NET/JEE | |
| <Seeker`> VooDoo: PERL? | |
| <Seeker`> as long as you dont want to be able to understand the file for more than 5 mins after you have written it | |
| <VooDoo> DaveMorris: i know php already, but fancy learning something to add skills to my bow :) | |
| <LoudMouthMan> this is what i remember using http://www.compu-art.de/mars_nwe/ | |
| <VooDoo> Seeker`: hmmm ive been thinking about perl | |
| <Seeker`> its interesting | |
| <Seeker`> i dont know that much | |
| <Seeker`> i use reference guides very heavily whenever i write anything in it | |
| <Seeker`> but it is very powerful | |
| <VooDoo> well a lot if ISP's use it a lot. | |
| <snail> perl is like a chainsaw. a good way for amateurs to lose a foot | |
| * snail is an amateur | |
| <VooDoo> kewl :) just call my limpy | |
| <LoudMouthMan> right for the netware question i was thinking of http://www.compu-art.de/mars_nwe/ | |
| <VooDoo> what netware question? sorry gone into thick mode. | |
| <Seeker`> do we get told the question? or do we have to guess the question based on the answer? | |
| <VooDoo> the answer is rconsole. | |
| <VooDoo> :) | |
| <jamesbrose> Hey | |
| <jamesbrose> everyone | |
| <mrben> hey | |
| <chaddy> lo jamesbrose | |
| <Seeker`> hi | |
| <chaddy> lo mrben | |
| <chaddy> #ubuntu has really calmed down a lot | |
| <Seeker`> define "calmed down" | |
| <chaddy> fewer stupid questions | |
| <jamesbrose> Anybody know a good audio player with a nice album/artist view? | |
| <AdamBagnall> Amarok, Rhythmbox or Banshee :-) | |
| <VooDoo> blimey, i'm tired :( | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> I'll vote for amarok too :) | |
| <jamesbrose> Hmmm | |
| <jamesbrose> I find amarok is quite slow | |
| <jamesbrose> Im bored of rythembox | |
| <jamesbrose> i will try banshee | |
| <jamesbrose> Got any other suggestions? | |
| <GazzaK> windows media player? :-) | |
| <AdamBagnall> Umm, never tried it but listen is in the repos. Also heard good things about exaile but it's not in the repos. | |
| <VooDoo> i use banshee, don't need anything else, what about xmms | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> I thought xmms was depreciated? | |
| <jamesbrose> I like Banshee :D | |
| * Seeker` likes xmms | |
| <jamesbrose> Takes a while to import 4000 songs though, but i'm not complaining. | |
| <VooDoo> don't know about xmms...... | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> I thought it had been replaced by Audacious, but I've been known to be wrong before | |
| <jamesbrose> I dont like xmms | |
| <VooDoo> i've no idea, banshee will do for now.....until i install Windows Vista | |
| * VooDoo ducks and runs | |
| * mrben aims low | |
| <jamesbrose> eww :P | |
| * jamesbrose fires | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> I was wrong, audacious is a fork of bmp | |
| <VooDoo> wrong? you were wrong? stop it now :) | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> @lart VooDoo | |
| * Ubugtu tackles VooDoo, sits on VooDoo and starts scratching at VooDoo's chest | |
| <VooDoo> eeeeeeek | |
| <jamesbrose> Does anybody know a good editor like textmate for ubuntu? | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> I've never used textmate | |
| * sheepeatingtaz googles | |
| <jamesbrose> apart from gedit ;) | |
| <jamesbrose> More predictive | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> Eclipse? :) | |
| <selinuxium> LoudMouthMan: Thanks, it isn't wwhat I am looking for but I am sure it will be useful! | |
| <LoudMouthMan> cool and just in time ive got to head home ( properly this time ) | |
| <selinuxium> jamesbrose: I use bluefish... | |
| <X3N> last time you did a dry run ? | |
| <Seeker`> emacs? :P | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> heh | |
| <X3N> i guess practice makes perfect | |
| <jamesbrose> cba with emacs :P | |
| <X3N> I like bluefish too | |
| <jamesbrose> I'm trying eclipse | |
| <VooDoo> i use bluefish but vi is adiquate. | |
| <selinuxium> one fish, two fish... | |
| <Seeker`> jamesbrose: unless you have a LOT of RAM you probably wont be that productive | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> jamesbrose: I was only semi-serious. Eclipse is a massive IDE | |
| <jamesbrose> oh right | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> sorry, I should've been clearer | |
| <X3N> you're fired sheepeatingtaz | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> I use it at work & at home, but I have fairly powerful machines | |
| * jamesbrose *cancels download* | |
| <selinuxium> @lart sheepeatingtaz | |
| * Ubugtu pushes the wall down onto sheepeatingtaz whilst whistling innocently | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> X3N: :P | |
| <selinuxium> jamesbrose: what are you looking for in your text editor? | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> jamesbrose: what are you wanting to 'edit' | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> what he said :) | |
| <selinuxium> sheepeatingtaz: beat ya! | |
| <selinuxium> lol | |
| <jamesbrose> meh, C & html | |
| <jamesbrose> and ruby | |
| <jamesbrose> I like the way that OS X one (textmate) predicts what your about to type | |
| <selinuxium> jamesbrose: bluefish can handle c and html, not sure about ruby | |
| <jamesbrose> I like predictive :]] | |
| <Seeker`> i want to go home | |
| <apokryphos-> go for it | |
| <Seeker`> i've got to wait for my housemate to finish his work | |
| <sheepeatingtaz> jamesbrose: a quick google suggests than bluefish can do Ruby, but I'm not sure if it's set up by default. | |
| <X3N> is is sheepeatingtaz | |
| <selinuxium> jamesbrose: http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/features.html shows what it is capable of. | |
| <apokryphos-> @lart Seeker` | |
| * Ubugtu beats Seeker` senseless with a 50lb Unix manual | |
| <apokryphos-> bah, these larts are definitely boring | |
| <X3N> it's listed under abaliable synatax's Document > document type > Ruby | |
| <X3N> yes, you heard, abaliable | |
| <selinuxium> lol | |
| <VooDoo> use dos edlin | |
| <X3N> what about "edit" ;) | |
| <VooDoo> stuff that hexedit :)_ | |
| <selinuxium> jamesbrose: Quanta is another one i tried in the past... | |
| <VooDoo> isn't there another one? vue? | |
| <jamesbrose> Ok, thanks :] | |
| <VooDoo> i'm off later all. | |
| <selinuxium> c'yall heading home! | |
| * sheepeatingtaz arrives home | |
| <X3N> I wrote an awsome c++ program today but i can't share it because it's course work :( | |
| <AdamBagnall> What did it do? | |
| <AdamBagnall> God that was a slow reply :-) | |
| <X3N> compute the distance between any points in space | |
| <X3N> N points | |
| <X3N> using Cartesian co-ordinates | |
| <PriceChild> that's pretty cool X3N | |
| <PriceChild> (even slower reply) | |

| <darich> hey loudmouthman | |
| <darich> gah for some reason Ubuntu turned off my swap file" | |
| <LoudMouthMan> doh ! ./ | |
| <darich> but...at least I fixed it | |
| <darich> and my lappy's running smooth as butter again | |
| <darich> very strange | |
| <LoudMouthMan> laptops and butter .. hmmm as good an idea as WiiRemotes and baby oil 1 | |
| <darich> lol | |
| <darich> am trolling round for another distro to put on my laptop | |
| <LoudMouthMan> kubuntu 1 | |
| <darich> I have Vista on my other partition at the mo' | |
| <LoudMouthMan> what is up with the shift on this keyboard | |
| <darich> but it's going to format heaven.... | |
| <darich> Kubuntu....mebbe but I have all the DE's installed on this distro | |
| * darich is listening to Soulwax - Nite Versions - Another Excuse | |
| <LoudMouthMan> i cant count the amount of customers I have who want to switch to vista. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> oh wait I can | |
| <LoudMouthMan> its zero! | |
| <darich> heh heh | |
| <darich> curiosity got the better of me | |
| <darich> so I wiped my cobwebbed XP install | |
| <darich> and installed it from scratch | |
| <darich> it made me realise how much I hate proprietary software | |
| <darich> so oppressive | |
| <darich> Vista worst of them all | |
| <darich> 'tis funny started using Ubuntu out of geek curiosity...and then really came round to the whole free software philosophy | |
| <Sanders> Is this where I can ask for some ubuntu help | |
| <Sanders> ? | |
| <LoudMouthMan> Sanders. well yes . but we might need to steer you to a more appropriate forum ! but fire away and hello | |
| <LoudMouthMan> darich . really ? | |
| <LoudMouthMan> cool . | |
| <Sanders> urmm ok | |
| <darich> yes Stallman got it right! | |
| <darich> all hail err RMS | |
| <Sanders> i am having some trouble with my keyboard nd mouse | |
| * darich is listening to 2 many dj's - As Heard on Radio Soulwax pt.1 - Salt n' pepa vs. The Stooges / | |
| <LoudMouthMan> Sanders okay. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> go on | |
| <Sanders> they seem to only occasionally work in ubuntu | |
| <Sanders> i havent installed it yet | |
| <darich> you're running off the LiveCD? | |
| <Sanders> because i dont want to install something i cant use | |
| <Sanders> yeah | |
| <Sanders> 6.10 | |
| <LoudMouthMan> okay then um tell us about the ketboard and mouse | |
| <Sanders> run of the mill Ps/2 keyboard and mouse | |
| <LoudMouthMan> okay wow . then thats VERY unusual to hear | |
| <darich> yah | |
| <LoudMouthMan> but youve no problems in windows then ? | |
| <Sanders> although the mouse is usb to ps/2 adaptor | |
| <LoudMouthMan> is it typmatic or just language issue ? | |
| <Sanders> nope no windows problems | |
| <darich> have you tried using it as a USB mouse? | |
| <Sanders> sometimes nothing works, and sometimes it is fine | |
| <Sanders> yeah usb mouse seems to work fine | |
| <Sanders> 100% | |
| <LoudMouthMan> it sounds like this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-186689.html | |
| <Sanders> ok | |
| <Sanders> cheers mate | |
| <LoudMouthMan> it suggest a bios configuration of the usb stuff | |
| <darich> funky! | |
| <Sanders> this has been bugging the hell outta me | |
| <LoudMouthMan> so is your box a oem or a clone build ? | |
| <darich> yes it must be annoying | |
| <LoudMouthMan> sorry is it built by you or manufacturer. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> the last time I saw ps2 keyboards not working was OS2! | |
| <LoudMouthMan> i really should admit that should i | |
| <darich> heh heh | |
| <Sanders> manufacturer built | |
| <Sanders> packard bell | |
| <darich> standard kit then | |
| <Sanders> unfortunately | |
| <Sanders> yeah | |
| <Sanders> nothing fancy | |
| <Sanders> gets the job done | |
| <LoudMouthMan> well dig out the motherboard spec since packard bell is usually called somethign rude hell ! | |
| <LoudMouthMan> then search for the MOBO spec details for PS2 things on google. its working well on Windows because MS get all manufacturers to submit stuff to make sure it passes. | |
| <LoudMouthMan> unfortunately for us we have to work with what we are told. which usually aint enough ! | |
| <LoudMouthMan> anyway I hope that helps, were you aware of the forums ? | |
| <Sanders> yeah | |
| <Sanders> I heard about this usb legacy stuff but couldnt fimd it on my BIOS | |
| * darich is listening to 2 many dj's - As Heard on Radio Soulwax pt.1 - Daft Punk / Aerodynamic | |
| <asgilder> Anyone know what uuid library (libuuid) not found means? And how to fix it? | |
| <LoudMouthMan> asglider . is that the perl question then | |
| * LoudMouthMan I wasnt planning to be here for this .. where the heck is popey eh ! | |
| <LoudMouthMan> sorry .. g ahead . | |
| <LoudMouthMan> asglider have you quit again ? | |
| <darich> hmmm | |
| <darich> oh well hope sanders found out about his Bios stuff | |
| <LoudMouthMan> yeah and asglider has been bouncing in and out . | |
| <LoudMouthMan> I was just dropping in to catch up with popey | |
| <LoudMouthMan> and to review the lists of todos and to get the wiki upto date. | |
| <darich> aaah you're part of the Ubuntu UK team? | |
| <LoudMouthMan> I am ? | |
| <LoudMouthMan> arent you ? | |
| <LoudMouthMan> yeah i am but im more PHB than PHD ! | |
| <darich> errr I think I signed up | |
| <darich> but then the Amarok team kidnapped me | |
| <darich> ;) | |
| <LoudMouthMan> hey thats kool . | |
| <darich> so got distracted with | |
| <darich> the press release for Amarok 1.4.4 | |
| <darich> I should really shunt some bugs their way | |
| <LoudMouthMan> im still bouncing between songbird/amarok/banshee and the rest | |
| <darich> I love love Amarok | |
| <LoudMouthMan> oh and itunes <grin> | |
| <darich> it was part of the reason I switched to Ubuntu | |
| <darich> strangely | |
| <darich> nothing on Windows really seemed as good | |
| <darich> when I was a relative noob | |
| <darich> before I had found the rutebook! | |
| <darich> which is pretty hardcore | |
| <LoudMouthMan> rutebook ? | |
| <darich> but really does explain a *nix system | |
| <darich> it's a free guide to Unix style systems | |
| <darich> from the ground up | |
| <darich> pretty hardcore | |
| <LoudMouthMan> ahh . okay . see im a bit old for that . heheh | |
| <darich> well a free book | |
| <LoudMouthMan> free books .. mmmmmmm | |
| <darich> free e-book | |
| <darich> it's even in the repos! | |
| <popey> asgilder: what is giving that message? libuuid? | |
| <X3N> hmm the ubuntu uk planet has a lot of junk on it |
