Comments:
<0> endgamer: you have full paths to commands in the crontab?
<1> smsie: nope...she pissed me off...why pleasure her, if she is going to be a bitch about stuff? **** it, I wasnt in the mood
<2> Ah pants...not to echo, does that matter?
<3> whyzzyrd: I'd probably enjoy the site, but it's all written in Foreign, and I don't do Foreign
<3> Steakk: who said anything about pleasuring *her*? :P
<4> smsie: lol
<5> probably make more sense if I spoke french, whyzzyrd
<4> 8)
<6> good christ. 17 minutes to etch a simple design on a lightscribe cd?
<2> Fixing...
<0> DaveHowe: there's an english translation linked on most pages
<1> I want a lightscribe drive
<7> Go and buy one
<5> some nice kit for printing on whitetops here --: http://www.proactionmedia.com/cd_dvd_printers.asp
<8> anyone good with wintendo printers?
<8> anyone? :)
<5> including a laminator to plastic-coat the printed layer to protect it
<8> Steakk...any ideas?
<6> dogbert2: my god! what catastrophe did you meet that caused it to take 2 hours?
<1> dogbert2: DSL? no
<8> D-Side...had to reset the ****ing POS modem from Sprint (won't reset w/a network cable attached)
<1> worked out of the box with my cabe modem
<3> the drawing is very good
<1> dogbert2: BUT, I will recommend checking to see if you have it set up as a router or gateway
<8> ohhhh, it is set for bridging...
<8> it works now...
<0> DaveHowe: that laminator's no cheap
<8> now on the other hand...I have a printer HP 1200 Laserjet connected by USB to my brother's PC...I wanna print to it, and it is set up for Sharing...
<2> Okay folks, one mystery solved....there was no line return at the end of the crontab line. <cries and bangs head on desk>. NOW it's throwing error mails as follows: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server <cr>
<2> Xlib: No protocol specified
<2> <cr> This option is not available. Please see --help for all possible usages.
<9> it's very very very hard to get oggenc to get close to CBR encodings.
<8> but when I try to print, it cannot find said printer...what gives?
<0> dogbert2: it's wintendo?
<8> whyzzyrd...yeah, the IP addr of his computer is 192.168.2.100 (via Linksys DHCP ***ignment)
<5> whyzzyrd: didn't say they were cheap - just nice. Given I don't have money to spare for toys right now, it doesn't matter how expensive the toys I can't have are :)
<8> the shared printer name is HP LaserJet 1200
<5> endgamer: maybe *now* its a permissions problem :)
<2> Hee. Trying again...
<2> "xhost +localhost" - happy, smsie? <g>
<9> hahah meditiation on the speed limit
<5> found lots of pretty sketches there whyzzyrd but not the promised comic strip. you wanna link me?
<0> DaveHowe: It appears it's a work in progress. http://showergate.net
<2> Still throwing the errors, DaveHowe...
<0> DaveHowe: I didn't look too closely the first time.
<2> Trying full xhost +
<2> Holy crap!
<2> Okay, that did it!
<5> right, now turn that back off and look at magic cookies ;)
<2> DaveHowe ... happy to , where are they?
<0> endgamer: and localhost won't have worked, because you'll have been connecting on the ethernet card IP I bet .
<0> endgamer: google.
<5> endgamer: have a google for "MIT MAGIC COOKIE"
<10> I've nearly downloaded XP Professional in the time it's taken Server 2003 R2 to install in VMware.
<2> K...
<3> endgamer: man mcookie
<0> any BSD freaks here? http://bellaminettes.com/good/goodies/demonetteBSD2_1024.jpg
<2> Seem to be in .Xauthority...
<11> that fits with what I remember
<5> http://bau2.uibk.ac.at/matic/xsecur.htm <-- seems to cover the ground there endgamer
<2> Last one is endgamer@cpc1-kemp1-5-0-cust10, which is me at my domain...
<0> endgamer: luton eh?
<2> Yup.
<2> Bedford actually..
<0> I can only say, the airport there is about the worst I've ever had the misfortune to fly through..
<3> whyzzyrd: never been to Speke then? :)
<2> Hee...been through a few times, no major problems getting to Belfast anyway. Well identified, by the way, you know NTL's network well? <g>
<0> smsie: nope.
<11> the airport in my home town has two gates
<11> which for reasons I've never fully understood are called Gate 1... and Gate 3
<0> endgamer: not really. It's kind of obvious in the hostmask.
<0> endgamer: I do deal with NTL on a regular basis though, they are a big Cisco reseller.
<11> (I harbour a suspicion that gates on that side of the building must have odd numbers, and if it weren't for the parking lot, gates on the other side would be even...)
<2> whyzzyrd: oh, yeah? Cisco make these dinky new cable modems? Just got mine replaced, hadn't really looked at it...
<5> well, cisco own linksys these days . . .
<3> Liandrin: I suspect that's for standardisation. In large parts of the UK streets are numbered like that too. Even streets which only have houses on one side. The idea being that firemen can find the house they want more easily
<6> whyzzyrd: that demon pic is just disturbing.
<0> endgamer: no idea. NTL business are what was once called "Workplace Technologies".
<10> Here, the house numbers on the north/east sides of the streets end in even numbers, and the south/west sides end in odd numbers.
<10> Makes it a bit easier to find places in unfamiliar territory.
<3> jgaddis: indeed
<3> it's not a bad idea really
<0> endgamer: I use them because they're a scottish gold partner, and have engineering support based about 90 mins from us.
<11> I have to agree
<3> just makes little sense if there are only buildings on one side of the stree to only use half the available numbers
<11> driving down a street at night trying to find a house number, -any- house number so you know what side to look on, is a pain...
<0> There's so few places actually numbered any more, it's a right pita.
<11> now, I'd like to smack the original owners of the building I live in, because they decided that the two downstairs suites at the -back- of the building would be #1 and #2, and the front door (which leads upstairs) would be #3
<11> *nobody* else understands this
<11> so the post office leaves packages for us at the front door, delivery people can't find us, etc.
<0> D-side: now, how is it disturbing?
<0> jgaddis: now, why would you want to do that?
<6> whyzzyrd: i'm not sure how you can ask me that question with a straight face.
<10> whyzzyrd: Gives me more reason to get a new Treo. =)
<5> Liandrin: considered getting a sign printed up that says "No. 3 - No's 1 & 2 at rear" and bolting it to the wall near the front letterbox?
<11> DaveHowe, yeah, but my budget doesn't extend that far
<11> DaveHowe, which, given how much that would(n't) cost, should give you an idea of my financial situation
<0> D-side: I don't find it particularly disturbing per-se..
<12> bleh... Radeon is havink fun with me
<5> Liandrin: trust me, I know the feeling. I need about 12K just to break even...
<12> jgaddis: that Treo 700W looks pretty nice from VZW... now if I had a few hundred to spend on that. lol
<2> Okay folks, I'm going to go away and poke at this authorisation problem. Thank you so much for your time, and all your help. G'night!
<10> cappicard: Yeah, that's the one I want, actually. VZW is the only one to have them currently, though (some exclusive contract, AIUI)
<12> yeah
<0> night. I need to get to bed.
<10> Have a co-worker who *just* got rid of his 700 and went back to his 650, though.
<12> I would like to get a Razr
<12> why?
<12> night
<10> cappicard: *shrug* Said he liked the interface better, said the mail synch worked better, ...
<12> jgaddis: admittedly, even though it runs Windows, that 700 is very nice
<10> cappicard: *nod* I'm quite happy with my Windows Mobile-based PDA, which is why I was wanting the 700W.
<13> i heard that the APM for devices like the Zaurus is pretty weak especially when using a CF wifi device
<13> it'
<13> it'd be nice to see that improve
<12> hm... I'm trying to setup an adhoc wifi network from my desktop to another PC I got on the floor
<14> jum
<13> whew.. although the Zaurus SL-C3100 is pretty nice lookin.. http://linuxdevices.com/news/NS3148932038.html
<14> jum
<15> Good morning people. I have a retail store and was wondering if anyone knows of a package that I would be able to use which does sales, purchases, accounts, maybe also bank reconciliations. Also needs to be networkable. of course on the Linux platform. Any help would be really appreciated.
<16> scuba_: search www.freshmeat.net or sourceforge.org. Should be some stuff available.
<2> <sigh> Back again. Got a couple more minutes, guys?
<16> scuba_: sounds to me as if you're looking for a regular CRM, there are a few available on Linux.
<11> sounds more like accounting software to me?
<5> and to me too. definitely more like bookkeeping
<15> Thanks for that guys, will have a look at those site. What does CRM stand for?
<5> apparently kmymoney is double-entry, but for personal (rather than business) use
<11> Customer Relations Management
<15> ah ha
<15> <--- Dumb ***
<2> smsie, DaveHowe: Any ideas how a cronjob, which is definitely running as me (I replaced the script call with "whoami" and it mailed "endgamer"), can fail to obtain the magic cookie? And how come it doesn't show as coming from localhost? (I believe smsie had an explanation for that?)
<16> which usually includes keeping track of sales, purchases, accounts.
<5> jGnash is personal too
<5> as is GnuCash. wtf doesn't anyone do *business* software???
<11> because the set of business people and Linux hackers are disjoint?
<17> heh
<16> exactly. out of their league i'd say.
<17> DaveHowe: because people who do business software wants to make money :P
