[08:18] <yofel> sgclark: l10n: yes, SRU
[08:20] <sgclark> yofel: mm ty, done and shadeslayer stepped up. waiting game now.
[08:21] <sgclark> past my bedtime :) see yas in a few hours
[08:23] <yofel> nini
[08:23] <yofel> sgclark: I replied to your mail btw.
[08:23] <yofel> I wouldn't postpone it, but it's not something we need to block on
[08:24] <yofel> clivejo: ^ wrt git
[08:25] <yofel> so if you both want to work on other things then I'll set up the git migration (maybe send me a mail with whatever you figured out so far - what's not on IRC already)
[09:14] <ascii-soup>  hi guys - tried asking in #kubuntu but maybe here is more appropriate - I've recompiiled Konsole from source, editing the 'setMargin()' call and it works fine in Konsole, but not in Kate's terminal or in Yakuake - do I need to do something in order to get the new Konsole kpart used by these two apps?
[09:22] <soee> ascii-soup: try asking in #kde-devel
[09:23] <soee> yofel: ping
[09:23] <yofel> hm?
[09:24] <ascii-soup> soee: cheers
[09:24] <soee> yofel: could you take a look at this last Package in Frameworks 5.21 that Scarlett has problems with ? :)
[09:24] <yofel> ascii-soup: I think we still use qt4 yakuake, so that's a different konsole. kate I would think that it would work though..
[09:24] <yofel> soee: in the evening maybe
[09:24] <soee> yofel: oki, thanks :)
[09:26] <ascii-soup> yofel: thanks; I had it working in Kate once, but could never get it to work after that - not sure how though haha
[09:27] <yofel> kde-devel will be the better place for that indeed. I'm not too familiar with kpart internals
[10:06] <clivejo> yofel: I just need help with git, never tried to do something like this before
[10:18] <soee> :)
[10:48] <clivejo> yofel: this is sgclark's attempt https://git.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/+git/extra-cmake-modules
[10:49] <sgclark> sorry thing could possibly be testest. but I have been up all night stressed out, going to bed now, thanks for understaing :)
[10:49] <yofel> that's what I commented on yesterday. Looks mostly good, but the branches are wrong
[10:49] <sgclark> pft
[10:49] <yofel> sgclark: what happened to sleep? ^^
[10:49] <sgclark> I can fix that but not at 349 am :(
[10:49] <yofel> GO TO BED
[10:50] <clivejo> yeah but how do we get the branches copied so they arent wrong!
[10:50] <sgclark> I am bloody messed up. check your mail
[10:50]  * sgclark tries to sleep
[10:51] <sgclark> clivejo: not entirely hard. I just need sleep and told to try harders
[10:51] <sgclark> herder
[10:51] <sgclark> blah
[10:51] <clivejo> LOL BED!!
[10:51] <sgclark> ok
[10:53] <clivejo> Ive been trying to move the branches by checking each one out locally and pushing it
[10:53] <clivejo> but I cant seem to strip out the master branch
[10:53] <shadeslayer> why not script it
[10:53] <clivejo> doing so seems to corrupt the tags etc
[10:54] <clivejo> shadeslayer: not sure how
[10:55] <sgclark> shadeslayer: scripting deleteing mater seems like a bad idea until we get it right. just saying.
[10:55] <sgclark> anyway, going to bed, I swear.
[10:56] <clivejo> Im going to go look for food
[10:57] <shadeslayer> can someone paste me their dput.cf
[10:57] <shadeslayer> plz
[11:00] <yofel> shadeslayer: system or user one?
[11:00] <shadeslayer> yofel: system, my ppa dput.cf is busted on debian testing apparently
[11:00] <yofel> someone fix pastebinit please...
[11:00] <shadeslayer> sprunge it
[11:00] <shadeslayer> http://sprunge.us/ABTE?ini
[11:01] <shadeslayer> zsh has a plugin, it does images too
[11:01] <shadeslayer> images, binary data
[11:02] <yofel> shadeslayer: http://sprunge.us/YVRc
[11:03] <shadeslayer> well that's odd then
[11:06] <shadeslayer> dpunt-ng uploads to ppas but not ubuntu, dput uploads to ubuntu but not PPA's
[11:06] <shadeslayer> hurray
[11:07] <yofel> hm, sprunge is handy
[11:07]  * yofel makes an alias for that
[11:07] <yofel> thanks for the hint
[11:07] <yofel> wait, how does that work o.O
[11:07] <shadeslayer> idk
[11:08] <shadeslayer> probably broken that's why
[11:08] <shadeslayer> dput-ng doesn't know about yakkety
[11:08] <yofel> :/
[11:08] <shadeslayer> it also does not like me passing it -f :P
[11:48] <snele> yofel: discover bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=362096
[11:48] <snele> apol says downstream
[11:48] <snele> read last comment
[11:48] <snele> i don't anderstand what he means ;)
[11:49] <yofel> it means that our calligra has no appstream information (I think that's what it means?)
[11:50] <yofel> snele: could you please open a launchpad bug against calligra and link that in the description?
[11:51] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:51] <yofel> hey
[12:20] <soee> burarum, with Frameworks 5.21 activities switcher does not work
[12:20] <soee> does it require newer Plasma also ?
 Probably
[14:53] <allee> Is there a possiblity to add to launchpad 'Report a bug' for kubuntu pkgs: 'bugs upstream -> b.k.o, pkging bugs here?'   would help to save lot's of wasted time
[14:57] <yofel> well, you can set per package bug reporting hints I believe. But most people that reach that page probably already intend to really file it there, and those that use apport usually ignore the text below the bug description box
[15:03] <allee> yofel: sigh. Maybe your right.   I assumed poeple use launchpad web ui and 'report a bug', but that probably wrong.
[15:04] <yofel> allee: AFAIK unless you have enough permissions, that should redirect you to the 'report a bug' wiki page.
[15:04] <yofel> or did they remove that...
[15:04] <yofel> the section on how to work around that is still on the wiki though
[15:05] <shadeslayer> Did someone file a SRU bug
[15:05] <shadeslayer> for the l10n packs
[15:06]  * yofel didn't see anything on the kubuntu-bugs ML at least
[15:06] <allee> at least in gwenviews bug page leads you to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gwenview/+filebug
[15:06] <allee> that's why I thought there a big warn info would be nice!
[15:07] <allee> same for konsole and kate, so probably for every pkg
[15:09] <yofel> Just checked, I *can* edit the bug config for the packages. So we could script setting something sensible if someone writes up a text
[15:27] <soee> yofel: this is the only problem in Frameworks 5.21 i mentioned before http://paste.ubuntu.com/16127606/ if you find time later please look at it :)
[15:31] <yofel> sounds like an epoch missing somewhere
[15:31] <yofel> oxygen-icon-theme should die though
[16:14] <allee> yofel: somthing like in the backports announcements?  Bugs in the packaging should be reported on Launchpad. Bugs in the software to KDE.
[16:15] <allee> or more like:  Bugs in $package should be reported to [[bugs.kde.org|KDE]].   Bugs in packaging of $package below:
[18:12] <clivejo> yofel: ping
[18:14] <clivejo> soee: are you testing FW5.21.0?
[18:29] <marco-parillo> clivejo: Is it ready for testing?
[18:30] <marco-parillo> Or only ready for testing by A-level folks?
[18:31] <clivejo> I dunno, soee usually jumps in head first!
[18:32] <clivejo> he said that with Frameworks 5.21 activities switcher does not work, so Im guessing hes got them installed
[18:34] <clivejo> marco-parillo: he said he had a problem - http://paste.ubuntu.com/16127606/
[18:36] <marco-parillo> Hmm, I like my Oxygen Yellow Cursor Theme. I wonder if that would get held back? I know on Manjaro, it got swapped out at some point for something compatible.
[18:36] <marco-parillo> So if he cannot get oxygen5-icon-theme I wonder if that would hit me?

[18:41] <clivejo> would it be on weegie?
[18:45] <soee> clivejo: i teste dit
[18:46] <marco-parillo> I do not know. And we may not get an answer on a Friday afternoon (EDT) night (UTC). I can try to remember to ask again on Monday.
[19:17] <snele> yofel: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calligra/+bug/1576827
[19:17] <yofel> thanks!
[19:18] <snele> no problem glad to help
[19:18]  * clivejo kicks LP
[19:18] <clivejo> fatal: remote error: '~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git' is not a valid Git repository path.
[19:18] <clivejo> it was a fecking valid path yesterday
[19:18] <yofel> that's missing the actual repo
[19:19] <clivejo> ah yofel :)
[19:19] <clivejo> I found this, https://gist.github.com/manakor/8972566
[19:21] <yofel> looks about right, we'll just have to delete what we don't want later
[19:21] <clivejo> should we just copy everything and rm the branches we dont want later?
[19:21] <clivejo> it looks simplier that just copying the stuff we do want
[19:23] <yofel> right. I think it's nicer to have things clean to begin with, but it doesn't really matter
[19:23] <clivejo> true, but I cant make it do what I want it to do
[19:25] <clivejo> yofel: could you make this command pattern searching, for remote in `git branch -r`; do git branch --track $remote; done
[19:25] <clivejo> only do it if the branch is kubuntu_*
[19:26] <yofel> git branch -r | grep kubuntu_
[19:26] <yofel> should do the trick
[19:27] <clivejo> hummmm
[19:27] <yofel> but...
[19:27] <yofel> I'm not quite sure what that command tries to achieve
[19:28] <clivejo> its to bring the branch locally
[19:28] <yofel> that's what line 19 in your linked script does
[19:28] <clivejo> yeah
[19:29] <clivejo> but need something to fill in the branch
[19:29] <clivejo> otherwise have to manually grab each branch
[19:30] <clivejo> do you know a way to do it?
[19:30] <yofel> looking right now...
[19:30] <snele> i don't use Discover but I think it worked better in 5.5.5 version, now broken text on slideshow, doesn't find krita kontact ktorrent etc
[19:31] <snele> muon on other hand works perfect for me :)
[19:31]  * yofel doesn't have the broken text..
[19:33] <yofel> clivejo: git branch -r --list | grep origin | grep -v HEAD | cut -f 2 -d \/
[19:44]  * sick_rimmit very pleased snele has good results with latest Muon
[19:44] <clivejo> I was thinking of grabbing the whole lot again uisng git clone --mirror
[19:44] <clivejo> this seems to grab all the branches
[19:45] <clivejo> yofel: will you do it?
[19:45] <clivejo> Im confusing the hell outta myself here
[19:45] <yofel> not today
[19:46] <clivejo> I want to grab those new branches scarlett made in frameworks
[19:46] <shadeslayer> you want clone bare
[19:47] <yofel> shadeslayer: why?
[19:47] <shadeslayer> if you want to mirror everything, you want that?
[19:47] <shadeslayer> tags,branches, the lot
[19:47] <clivejo> shadeslayer: Ive been trying lots of ways
[19:47] <shadeslayer> that's what I learnt
[19:47] <yofel> how do you push that?
[19:47] <clivejo> but we only really need the kubuntu_* branches
[19:48] <shadeslayer> git push --mirror
[19:48] <clivejo> but if I leave master it seems to break it
[19:48] <shadeslayer> are bare and mirror the same?
[19:48] <shadeslayer> https://help.github.com/articles/duplicating-a-repository/
[19:48] <shadeslayer> aha
[19:48] <shadeslayer> As with a bare clone, a mirrored clone includes all remote branches and tags, but all local references will be overwritten each time you fetch
[20:30] <sick_rimmit> What triggers us to package something ?
[20:30] <clivejo> usually soee
[20:31] <sick_rimmit> How does he know ?
[20:31] <clivejo> news feeds probably
[20:35] <sick_rimmit> Ooops kwin crashed
[20:37] <shadeslayer> there's a kde-distro ML
[20:37] <shadeslayer> or something like that
[20:37] <shadeslayer> and kde-announce
[20:43] <clivejo> theres also http://kde-apps.org/

[20:44] <sick_rimmit> Ok
[20:45] <sgclark> release-team list announces all but "extragear" projects
[20:47] <clivejo> hi sgclark
[20:48] <sgclark> hiyas
[20:48] <sgclark> so wine + stress = bad
[20:48] <clivejo> did you manage to get some sleep?
[20:48] <sgclark> yeah
[20:49] <sgclark> I see git moving forward, did ci get sorted?
[20:49] <dreefting> hi!
[20:49] <clivejo> git moving forward?
[20:49] <sgclark> the move to git on lp
[20:49] <sgclark> will break ci until some magic is scripted
[20:50] <clivejo> Ive been trying to move debian to LP, but its not working
[20:51] <sgclark> no?
[20:51] <clivejo> nope
[20:51] <sgclark> I thought I saw in backlog you found the same command I used
[20:51] <clivejo> wont work!
[20:52] <sgclark> but yofel did not like the origin/ prepended
[20:52] <clivejo> nope
[20:52] <clivejo> that breaks things :(
[20:52] <sgclark> so we cant checkout all that we want loca and just push that?
[20:52] <sgclark> s/loca/local
[20:53] <clivejo> I been trying that too
[20:53] <clivejo> yofel gave me a command to grab the branches
[20:53] <clivejo> git branch -r --list | grep origin | grep -v HEAD | cut -f 2 -d \/
[20:54] <soee> HIHO dreefting
[20:54] <sgclark> hmm seems like we can delete vivid branches
[20:54] <sgclark> EOL
[20:56] <clivejo> can you manage to do it?
[20:56] <sgclark> well that lists them, does not actually checkout them out
[20:56] <clivejo> yeah have to check them out
[20:57] <clivejo> git checkout -b <branch> origin/<branch>
[20:57]  * sick_rimmit wanders around the corridors of Jenkins
[20:57] <sick_rimmit> Ooo some cool sauce going on in here
[20:57] <clivejo> will have to script it
[20:58] <clivejo> for branch in blah blah; do
[20:59] <clivejo> but Im in peak internet time and cant use that much bandwidth
[21:00] <sgclark> I can fiddle with it, keep me away from the wine haha
[21:00] <clivejo> uploaded a ton of images to mapillary recently too :/
[21:04] <clivejo> sgclark: can you try - for branch in `git branch -r --list | grep origin | grep -v HEAD | cut -f 2 -d \/`; do git checkout -b $branch origin/$branch; done
[21:05] <shadeslayer> oh my q.q
[21:05] <sgclark> clivejo: worked
[21:05] <sgclark> but
[21:05] <shadeslayer> clivejo: sgclark https://github.com/schacon/ruby-git
[21:05] <sgclark> I am reading doing it that way is a no no
[21:06]  * sgclark looks
[21:06] <sgclark> clivejo: we want master? don't we want to grep out kubuntu* branches only?
[21:06] <sgclark> checkout rather
[21:07] <clivejo> apparently we dont need master
[21:07] <clivejo> but skipping it seems to break things :/
[21:07] <sgclark> well we will want to add a remote eventullay for merges
[21:07] <sgclark> well we can create a bare master no?
[21:08] <clivejo> Im so confused with it all
[21:08] <sgclark> yes we do have to have a master, but it certainly does not have to be debians master
[21:30] <soee> clivejo: clone all, empty master, merge some branch into empty master ?
[21:32]  * valorie nominates soee to do it!
[21:34] <sgclark> I am thinking git init --bare push then clone the debian git checkout kubuntu* git push to new lp repo
[21:34] <sgclark> now to accomplish this with the ruby-git is what I am working on
[21:34]  * sgclark goes back to studying
[21:49] <clivejo> +1 for soee doing it
[21:49] <clivejo> sgclark: I was thinking of doing git clone --mirror and pushing everything
[21:50] <clivejo> we could then sort out the extra pranches another time
[21:50] <clivejo> like a merge of something
[22:03] <sgclark> okies, seems like alot of work later cleaning though.
 If all is cloned?
 I would say let's try to stage Plasma and Apps now when we have Frameworks - backports them and then will be a log of time to migrate to LP. Or we need lp now because YY requires this?
[22:10] <clivejo> sgclark: where did kubuntu-automation go?
[22:11] <clivejo> https://code.launchpad.net/kubuntu-packaging/+git
[22:12] <sgclark> clivejo: dunno, I did not touch it
[22:12] <clivejo> oh
[22:13] <clivejo> did you delete ecm?
[22:13] <valorie> @marcinsagol -- we decided that focusing on dev first would make the merges and so forth go more smoothly
[22:13] <sgclark> clivejo: nope
[22:13] <valorie> first the workflow, then the work
[22:15] <clivejo> @marcinsagol if you want to stage plasma and app, go ahead
[22:15] <clivejo> but you will have to do it all manually like sgclark has done
[22:15] <sgclark> clivejo: so our 2 git repos vanished into thin air?
[22:16]  * sgclark does not like the sound of that
[22:16] <valorie> ?
[22:16] <clivejo> this launchpad interface confuses me
[22:17] <clivejo> https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/+git

[22:18]  * clivejo wipes sweat of brow
[22:19] <sgclark> whew
[22:20] <clivejo> having any luck with git script?
[22:32] <sgclark> learning ruby on the fly

[09:20] <pob> Hi all, I have a laptop with two HDDs and would like to install Ubuntu on the second HDD and preserve the MBR on the first disk.
[09:20] <pob> I had a bad experience on the past when installing on an external HDD.  Grub installed on the fixed HDD and wrecked my windows boot :(
[09:21] <pob> How can I ensure that I preserve the MBR on the first HDD and install grub on the second.  Then I can use BIOS boot options to choose the HDD to boot?
[09:22] <pob> Short of physically removing one HDD :P
[09:22] <IAmNotThatGuy> pob: You can install GRUB in the first HDD. You can make the grub access the Linux partition in the second hard disk
[09:24] <pob> I do not want anything changed on the first HDD at all.  I want to be able to choose which HDD to boot from the BIOS boot options.
[09:25] <pob> Is this possible?
[09:25] <Snicksie> grub has (as far as i know) an option to choose where to install it ;)
[09:26] <pob> I do not remember being able to choose where GRUB installs itself.
[09:26] <Snicksie> well, i know i did :)
[09:26] <pob> okay is it a command line option or is it available in the gui?
[09:26] <Snicksie> it was available in gui :)
[09:27] <Snicksie> but you'll need to specify the installation place etc by yourself or it will choose the wrong option for you ;)
[09:27] <Snicksie> << gone
[09:28] <pob> Cool, I might give this a crack.   Will the grub install go out of it's way to remove the MBR on the first disk and provide a windows boot option?  This is want I don't want
[09:36] <pob> Anyone else got any advice before I take the plunge?
[09:37] <IAmNotThatGuy> I think that will work
[09:38] <pob> Cheers
[09:39] <IAmNotThatGuy> grub -install /dev/sda
[09:39] <IAmNotThatGuy> that is what I remember
[09:44] <pob> that's a bit heavy for me,  I was going to install using the Ubuntu install gui

[15:32] <nlsthzn> nope, must have missed that bit
[15:32] <hobgoblin> :p
[15:41] <stlsaint> nlsthzn: you use UCE?
[17:23] <philipballew_>  would it be possible to set up a vpn server remotely?
[17:48] <pleia2> philipballew_: a graphical interface that you vpn in to?
[17:48] <philipballew_> pleia2, no my cli server back home
[17:49] <pleia2> hm, what do you mean by "vpn server" exactly?
[17:50] <philipballew_> haha. sorry, I want so set up a vpn so I can vpn into my server and say use the network there and not have to deal with my schools annoying Internet filters
[17:52] <pleia2> there are a few things you can do, if you just want this for web browsing you can set up a web proxy that you connect your browser at school through (I use tinyproxy)
[17:52] <philipballew_> pleia2, alright I can look into that. seems simple enough
[17:52] <pleia2> yeah it's probably the easiest to configure
[17:53] <philipballew_> . alright. well I gtg. thanks and ill look into that
[17:54] <MrChrisDruif> philipballew; was someone looking for help?
[17:55] <coalwater> ssh with -D would do the job quite nicely, but he poofed, unless the name without the _ could see lol
[17:56] <pleia2> MrChrisDruif: he was :)
[17:56] <coalwater> i use that a lot
[17:56] <MrChrisDruif> pleia2; philipballew was looking for help?
[17:56] <pleia2> MrChrisDruif: yes
[17:57] <MrChrisDruif> Alright
[17:57] <coalwater> philipballew: try using ssh user@server -D [port number] then after logging in set up ur browser to use socks5 proxy with ip <IP_ADDRESS> and port = same port in the ssh connection
[18:01] <coalwater> oh and -D [port] isnt the same as -p [port], -D is a local port
[18:07] <coalwater> philipballew_: still trying that vpn thing? or did u figure it out
[18:08] <philipballew_> coalwater, I was told I could use a proxy.
[18:08] <philipballew_> i knew I could use that
[18:08] <coalwater> are u on ur pc ?
[18:08] <philipballew_> im on my laptop and my server I was gonna set a vpn on is 580 miles away. but i have ssh set up
[18:09] <coalwater> good, u could use that
[18:09] <coalwater> u dont need vpn, i dont even know how to do that, u could use ssh with -D
[18:09] <philipballew_> what does tacking a cap d do coalwater ?
[18:11] <coalwater> set a dynamic port, or w/e its called, any traffic sent to that port is sent to the server to handle it, u then set ur proxy to use a socks proxy with that port, so all ur browser traffic is sent encrypted to the server then the server hanadles it and sends the reply back
[18:12] <coalwater> it can pass any kind of filters, unless the server it self is blocked i guess
[18:12] <philipballew_> well if my school wants to block my home personal server i might need to talk to them
[18:13] <philipballew_> can I do all this remotely?
[18:13] <coalwater> yea
[18:14] <philipballew_> alright. ill do something like this tonight probably
[18:14] <coalwater> just ssh user@server -p whatever -D any port, 8888 for example, then on the browser set it to socks proxy v5 with ip <IP_ADDRESS> and port 8888 ( or w/e port u pick)
[18:15] <coalwater> u can use some proxy switching add onds to make it easier, if u are going to use it often
[18:15] <philipballew_> coalwater, though can I open a port remotely though?
[18:16] <philipballew_> i will be using it 24/7
[18:16] <coalwater> o ok
[18:16] <coalwater> but u have to keep the ssh session active all the time
[18:16] <coalwater> u can do it on a tty screen i guess
[18:17] <philipballew_> hum. maybe I can set it up with network manager to connect to the proxy everytime I connect
[18:19] <philipballew_> coalwater, It seems doable to set up a proxy fairly easily
[18:19] <coalwater> i dont know, i only discovered it when i was on a vacation to anther country that blocked a whole lot of things lol,
[18:19] <coalwater> for some reason when i used a squid proxy it wasnt working so good, because somehow some sites still were blocked
[18:20] <coalwater> but using this method allows me to watch vids that are allowed to us people only for example
[18:20] <philipballew_> what country do you live in?
[18:20] <coalwater> egypt
[18:21] <philipballew_> what part?
[18:21] <coalwater> idk, cairo lol
[18:21] <coalwater> if u mean what city
[18:22] <philipballew_> yeah. Never been there, Maybe i will need to hit that up one day
[18:26] <philipballew_> anyway coalwater THanl you for the information. its gonna help me
[18:27] <coalwater> np, u can really find a lot talking about it if u search for 'using putty with ssh as proxy ' or something like that, that's how i found it
[18:28] <philipballew_> alright. i have never used putty. I might need to give it a try soon
[18:30] <coalwater> putty is for ssh on windows, u dont need it if u are on linux
[18:31] <philipballew_> for sure. you gotta wonder why windows does not have as good of a cli as linux and unix
[18:32] <coalwater> yea, i really got used to using terminal, on windows u find even basic things not available, i <3 terminal lol
[19:17] <coalwater> when do I need the bind server and when do I not, and is it the same as the 'named' service
[20:47] <steph_> hello all, I have a question about resizing partition on a usb stick that contains an operating system. anyone have experience in this area?
[20:48] <steph_> it is fat32, containing debian live
[21:42] <JackyAlcine> i-b-u-c-l-aaaaaww!
[22:46] <worpole> Hi! having a pretty major problem i was hoping you could help with, i've started experiencing pretty major problems with internet connectivity. I am running the latest ubuntu version "Oneric Occelot"
[22:48] <worpole> My internet connection lately has been VERY VERY slow! Other users in the house are getting speeds of around 5 meg but my laptop running ubuntu acheives around 0.1 meg. I've tried troubleshooting the problem by disabling the wireless connection and using an ethernet connection but the speed is exactly the same (slow!). Any ideas what the problem may be?
[22:49] <worpole> My system is up to date, and im not running any other programs in the background doing downloads constantly (as far as i know!)
[22:49] <bioterror> is it slow to other computers too in the house?
[22:50] <bioterror> or just thru router to wan?
[22:53] <worpole> All the other computers in the house get a decent connection speed
[22:53] <worpole> and there are 3 other computers running
[22:55] <bioterror> yes
[22:55] <bioterror> sure
[22:55] <bioterror> but you didnot answer to my question
[22:55] <bioterror> what if you move data between your computer and one of the 3
[22:56] <bioterror> is it slow too?
[23:00] <worpole> oh, im sorry
[23:00] <worpole> to be honest i havent tried that
[23:00] <worpole> how would i go about it
[23:01] <worpole> ?
[23:03] <bioterror> scp, smb, nfs
[23:03] <bioterror> http
[23:03] <bioterror> ftp
[23:03] <bioterror> pick one
[23:04] <worpole> sorry man, not sure what you mean. can you dumb it down a touch/
[23:04] <bioterror> windows shares, for example
[23:04] <bioterror> ie smb
[23:05] <bioterror> !samba
[23:05] <ubot2> Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.
[23:05] <worpole> ah ok! cheers i'll give that a go and report back later. thanks
[23:05] <bioterror> good
[23:06] <bioterror> I'm off to bed
[23:06] <bioterror> good night ;)


[00:52] <superm1> skd5aner: yeah if you want to build from source, you can actually spit out packages from source using those scripts in there
[07:25] <qwebirc34416> have other people experienced problems with thier mceusb working?
[07:26] <qwebirc34416> I can get it to work but if i shut down or reboot for some reason it fails
[07:26] <qwebirc34416> then for no apparent reason it'll start working again...... and it's not the batteries
