| <nrdb> I am using the update-manager to upgrade from 6.06 -> 6.10 after doing a long download the manager has displayed a terminal window with a question (about vmware) but the terminal window wont active so I can answer the question !!! :( what can I do ? | |
| <adhoc> don't panic | |
| * nrdb not yet | |
| * nrdb still hoping for a solution | |
| <Phlosten> are you running the update from gui? or from command line? | |
| <Tatey> argh | |
| <Tatey> anyone access bottlebrush.net.au? | |
| <Phlosten> Tatey, nope | |
| *** cps is now known as cps|out | |
| <Tatey> fsk | |
| <nrdb> Phlosten: 'update-manager' is a gui program | |
| <Phlosten> ah right | |
| <Phlosten> i've never bothered with upgrading | |
| <Phlosten> i did do an upgrade once, but everything was so messy afterwards I decided to not bother with the process again | |
| <Tatey> Arch 2u | |
| <Phlosten> smarty arch | |
| <Phlosten> Tatey, is there a gui frontend to pacman? | |
| <Tatey> Phlosten: yes, I believe so | |
| <Tatey> though, it's much easier to use the CLI IMO | |
| <Tatey> GUI's are too slow | |
| <Phlosten> :) just curious | |
| <adhoc> hi guys | |
| <adhoc> is there a config file for NetworkManager that i can edit/delete ? | |
| <adhoc> its not detecting my wireless even tho i can poke it via the gnome mangery thing | |
| <purserj> I think NM actually uses gconf, I could be wrong though | |
| <adhoc> purserj: ok, that explains why i can't find any config info in /etc/ ... | |
| <purserj> yar | |
| <Tatey> purserj: hey, I thought I recognised your nick | |
| <Tatey> you do that Open Source on the Air don't you? | |

| <Tatey> nice :D | |
| <Tatey> very interesting stuff mate | |
| <purserj> heh thanks | |
| <Tatey> admittedly, I've only listend to the grahic/design round table, but I've downloaded the other ones which I'll look at when I get some spare time :) | |
| <Tatey> it's a good listen | |
| <purserj> good stuff, next one's going to be on Open Solaris | |
| <Tatey> great :) | |
| <Tatey> I'm still waiting for my CD :P | |
| <purserj> heh, thats one of the things we'll be looking at, the community building | |
| <cafuego_> if the community were pieces of lego, it'd be much easier. | |
| <bimberi> but it hurts when you step on them! | |
| <Phlosten> open solaris on the air | |
| <Phlosten> woot | |
| <Phlosten> i'd like to know where my dvd is too | |
| <Phlosten> i guess after they got slashdotted they probably ended up with a giant backlog | |
| <cafuego_> bimberi: doesn't it just! I still have malformed feet from stepping on too much lego when I was a kid | |
| <cafuego_> physically anyway | |
| <Phlosten> evil lego | |
| <Phlosten> those silly little lego men are looking at me funny, they are up to no good i tell ya | |
| <bimberi> yep, they shift to the rug and stick their little point feet in the air. Lying in wait... | |
| <bimberi> *pointy | |
| <Tatey> any PHP guru's here? | |
| <adhoc> if that counts and when 3.0 was current ... ? | |
| <adhoc> s/and/as/ | |
| <purserj> Tatey: whats up? | |
| <Tatey> purserj: I want to output the current time in Brisbane using the PHP date function. Unfortunately, my server is located in Sydney. I need to offset it one hour to make it Brisbane time | |
| <tuppa> gah | |
| <tuppa> use UTC! | |
| <tuppa> :p | |
| <Tatey> heh, it's office hours for my business | |
| <adhoc> tuppa: then think about day light savings ... | |
| <adhoc> ooohhh | |
| <adhoc> is brisvegas still not doing daylight savings? | |
| <purserj> Tatey: I know this one, hold on | |
| <purserj> there is a function in php that allows you to set the timezone for the script | |
| <purserj> putenv("TZ=[PUT YOUR TIMEZONE HERE]") | |
| <purserj> is what you want | |
| <Tatey> thanks very much purserj :) | |
| <adhoc> vista is sick ? | |
| <sicc-vista> Vista rocks | |
| <Tatey> here's trouble | |
| <sicc-vista> Why doesn't Arch impliment Aero, I'll tell you why. Because Arch sucks :P | |
| <cef> vista is full of rocks. :P | |
| <Tatey> you're such a troll sicc-vista | |
| <sicc-vista> lol :) | |
| <Tatey> awww | |
| <cef> Intel won't adopt vista internally apparently... as they put it... "not ready". | |
| <Phlosten> vista, not ready? what a surprise | |
| <TheMuso> I'm sure many of MS' programmers would probably agree with that also. | |
| <Phlosten> numerous stories of more people everyday downgrading back to XP kind of give it all away | |
| <TheMuso> Phlosten: Really? Wow. | |
| <Phlosten> at least 1 a day that i hear about from friends | |
| <Phlosten> some pretty pissed off people too. wtf! i just spent hundreds of dollars so none of my games run anymore | |
| <TheMuso> heh | |
| <Phlosten> the issue of the moment seems to be gaming. none of my current games will work in vista, but vista has directx10 which will be great for gaming | |

| <adhoc> they said she had to take it up with Microsoft Australia! | |
| <adhoc> she was understanable furiois... | |
| <Phlosten> lol | |
| <Phlosten> adhoc, did you offer her a ubuntu cd? | |
| <tuppa> just you wait when she comes back and ask where she could get a refund for the ubuntu CD... | |
| <cafuego_> cef: Intel can't afford that much ram. | |
| <adhoc> Phlosten: didn't have any handy | |

| <Phlosten> my answer at this stage is 'throw you cruddy ISA in the bin' | |
| <Phlosten> your | |
| <sicc-vista> Heheh | |
| <Phlosten> the only option i can think of is running a seperate machine to do the filtering seperately | |
| <sicc-vista> It's essentially a case of why? | |
| <sicc-vista> Tell your teacher to stop wasting your time | |
| <Phlosten> yeah | |
| <sicc-vista> OR, tell your teacher to purchase you a legit copy of Microsoft ISA | |

| <siccness> (of the al-foil) | |
| <praetorian> dont make me get motherlug to stick an umbrella up your coit | |
| <siccness> helpful :P | |
| <praetorian> no al foil in the microwave | |
| <Phlosten> the microwave is for windows installation CDs only | |
| <MotherLUG> siccness, you will blow up the microwave if you put al-foil in it | |
| <MotherLUG> cooking 101 | |
| <MotherLUG> lesson 1 | |
| <MotherLUG> stab potatoe with fork all over ( do not pulverize) | |
| <Phlosten> you can put al foil in there, but you have to restrict it to no more than like 30% coverage | |
| <MotherLUG> put in microwave on hight for 4 minutes | |
| <siccness> MotherLUG: It's going in the oven | |
| <MotherLUG> remove from microwave add beans and cheese and re nuke for 2 minutes | |
| <siccness> I worked it out though | |
| <siccness> shiny side goes on the inside, otherwise the heat will be deflected away. | |
| <MotherLUG> you got it siccness | |
| <siccness> <--genius | |
| <MotherLUG> :D | |
| <siccness> Ok, midnight snack will be 2hours late. | |

| <Kamping_Kaiser> purserj, installing warz copies of windows on The Huts staff laptops (hes left the org now, but he wont be coming back...), and generally making my life harder running the place (especially now i have to reinstall+resetup the system with ubuntu as it was *before* he got to it | |
| <purserj> you need a cluebat | |
| <siccness> That sucks Kamping_Kaiser :\ | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> purserj, yeh, i'd agree with taht | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> *that | |
| <purserj> Have I told you about the News Director at WIN? | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> siccness, yeh. just means i have to lay down the law - no, you dont install software on laptops without my permission :( | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> no, i dont think you did | |
| <purserj> Right. | |
| <siccness> I need to get myself an office suite | |
| <purserj> After I'd been at WIN about 18 months I was moved into Help Desk. | |
| <purserj> Got a call from our Graphics Artist asking what Kazaa was | |
| <siccness> LOL | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> rofl | |
| <purserj> Turns out, dear News Director had installed it on her machine (the one thats a gateway between the edit suites and the corp network) so he could download a track for that nights news broadcast | |
| <siccness> that's classic | |
| <purserj> Now keep in mind the edit suites do not have any anti-virus protection (tends to really kill any rendering work) | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> ahahaha. thats great. | |
| <purserj> By the time I and my boss had gotten through with him, he was afraid to go near his own machine let alone the Graphic Artists | |
| <siccness> There was actually a good review of different anti-virus software for Windows machines | |
| <purserj> yeah I like AVG for that | |
| <siccness> Norton scored the worst, due to being a bitch. | |
| <purserj> Norton is truly a PITA | |
| <siccness> Yeah. | |
| * Kamping_Kaiser wonders what he [person who set up this laptop] was thinking when he set it to use the gateway IP | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> norton is unusable | |
| <purserj> It was constantly missing things, moving from one version to another was always a "cross you fingers, hope and then fix all the screwups" operation | |
| <siccness> For me, it comes down to: A virus that slows my computer down, OR anti-virus software that slows my computer down. | |
| <siccness> A virus is free, anti-virus software isn't free | |
| <siccness> It's a tough choice. | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> heh | |
| <Phlosten> whats the legality of ripping tracks from streaming audio in aus? | |
| <siccness> Good question | |
| <Phlosten> i remember reading something somewhere but I am not sure | |
| <siccness> Heh | |
| <Phlosten> cause that streamripper does a nice job of ripping tracks | |
| <siccness> meh, ill turn around if you decide to do it :) | |
| <purserj> Phlosten: its illegal without permission of the stream copyright holder | |
| <purserj> mind you that could have changed to allow for timeshifting | |
| <purserj> on that note, night all | |
| <Phlosten> nighty night | |
| <siccness> night mate | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> night | |
| <Phlosten> time shifting implies that it gets deleted after listening/viewing | |

| <Phlosten> does look good, we are doing vista installs at tafe next week | |
| <siccness> Tell them to do the Ultimate Edition (if they have it) | |
| <siccness> that way you can update it and install DreamScene | |
| <Phlosten> dunno what they have | |
| <siccness> DreamScene is f-ing mad. You can set a video as your wallpaper | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> 'oh yay' | |
| <Phlosten> how resource friendly | |
| <siccness> Doesn't even touch the resources. | |
| <siccness> Heh, video driver just crashed. Nice! | |
| <Phlosten> cant argue with tradition! | |
| <siccness> That's right. That's the brilliance of Vista, rather than fixing issues, they've actually just left them in there. | |
| <siccness> It's to let the end-user feel right at home. | |
| <siccness> Clever marketting really. | |
| <Phlosten> added more bling to the crashing? | |
| <Phlosten> 'lets not just do crashing, lets do crashing with style!' | |
| <siccness> Exactly! | |
| <Phlosten> whats a crash message if you cant give it transparent looks! | |
| <siccness> Well if you're going to die, you should do it in style. | |
| * Kamping_Kaiser swears inelegently at winxp and hard resets the computer | |
| <Phlosten> 'your computer is really rooted now, but hey, look on the bright side...this error message looks awesome!' | |
| <siccness> vista shows me the actual error though | |
| <siccness> rather than error at 8xF8434FG | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> siccness, error at xxxx *is* the actual errror mssage | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> *sp -r -s | |
| <siccness> yes | |
| <Phlosten> enough study for tonight, off to bed for me | |
| <Phlosten> night all | |
