| 14:03.52 | jason_ukfsn | One big plus for me is that while being forced to enter all the last 18 months accounts in again I discovered a cheque that I sent to the bank in May had not arrived in my account which was over £1K short. |
| 14:04.25 | jason_ukfsn | gnucash is not perfect but there doesn't seem to be anything better available and I cannot be bothered to write one myself. |
| 14:04.53 | zachary | looking at switching my books over to linux. But I need a good equity system for mutual funds. MS Money 2001 scewed all my accounts up. |
| 14:05.38 | jason_ukfsn | Well gnucash claims to have some equities support however it's an area I know nothing about so I cannot comment |

| 16:28.13 | dpash | Tarragon: no, just a recruitment company |
| 16:28.24 | Tarragon | Claim danger money |
| 16:28.50 | dpash | I'm sure it is dangerous to my health |
| 16:28.51 | SpudUAway | dpash: Any particular smell? |
| 16:29.11 | dpash | not that I can describe |
| 16:29.20 | dpash | it is just "their" smell |
| 16:29.30 | dpash | and it is particularly overpowering |
| 16:29.46 | dpash | I'll have to see if I can find some dust to bring along to the meeting |
| 16:30.00 | dpash | so you can expeience this smell |
| 16:30.51 | Tarragon | Thanks, but I really don't think you need to do that. |
| 16:34.28 | Tarragon | I could imaging the scene. "Here, quick sniff this grey powder""Ewwh""'Allo, 'Allo, 'Allo. Evening all gentlemen, what do we have here?" |
| 16:35.41 | Huhn | :) |
| 16:36.05 | nasrat | s/grey/white/ |
| 16:36.32 | nasrat | ibot lart muppet employers |
| 16:39.31 | nasrat | ok can I take vote whether I resign right now or not? |
| 16:40.47 | Tarragon | resign as what? |
| 16:41.09 | Tarragon | Oh work you mean |
| 16:41.47 | Tarragon | Well it has gone payday... |
| 16:42.05 | nasrat | sorry not in a good mood |
| 16:43.22 | dpash | any particular reason? |
| 16:43.33 | dpash | not due to smelly computers? |
| 16:46.05 | nasrat | dpash: lots of redundancies, just got a letter saying paycuts, upto 90 sms's a night due to bloaty java app |
| 16:46.58 | nasrat | dpash: muppet isp |
| 16:47.27 | nasrat | dpash: no, they are noat http://www.dti.gov.uk/cgi-bin/betsie/parser.pl/www.dti.gov.uk/er/pay/contracts-pl810b.htm#2 |
| 16:48.58 | nasrat | pissed off and pissed may actually reprint my resignation letter |
| 17:06.53 | dpash | hmmm I don't think that would apply in nasrats' case because it talks about deductions, rather than a pay cut |
| 17:10.08 | Tarragon | Would have still thought it would have counted as a variation of contract on unfavourable terms |
| 17:11.05 | dpash | yeah |
| 17:20.10 | dpash | hmm 129 extra females in my district council area |
| 17:20.33 | dpash | now if only I could find them |

| 20:38.15 | resuDaed | evening all |
| 20:39.09 | Huhn | hi resuDaed |
| 20:59.50 | resuDaed | Huhn : would you know how to send a man page to std as pure text (ie no formatting) |
| 20:59.59 | resuDaed | s/std/stdout |
| 21:00.23 | Huhn | resuDaed: sorry.. not sure.. |
| 21:01.46 | resuDaed | output as html, read through lynx and save as a text file :-) |
| 21:02.17 | Huhn | lynx has an option --dump to produce text |
| 21:03.22 | resuDaed | cool, thanks |
| 21:04.13 | Huhn | I normally do: lynx --dump h.html > h.txt |
| 21:08.52 | murb | what is wrong with nroff -man ? |
| 21:09.34 | Huhn | murb: nothing, thanks, that was the command missing.. |
| 21:11.13 | murb | you probably still have to tell grotty not to put in backspaces and high lighting as well. |
| 21:15.31 | resuDaed | murb, for some reason, I dont think my kernel has detected my lpt ... in the kernel config it is modular ... a) is the correct module likley to have been loaded @ boot time b) if not, what module would it be? |
| 21:15.40 | resuDaed | (or Huhn or anyone else) |
| 21:16.24 | resuDaed | attempting to do anything with /dev/lp[0-2] returns no device |
| 21:25.28 | murb | what does dmesg say about printers, do you have ||printer support in your kernel, have you got the lp module loaded, is your printer on fire? |
| 21:27.28 | resuDaed | have modprobe parport (a guess), dmesg returned parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP] ; parport0: irq 7 detected |
| 21:27.40 | resuDaed | don't have module 'lp' |
| 21:28.53 | resuDaed | Parallel port is 'modular' in kernel config |
| 21:29.20 | resuDaed | printer is not on fire, and is online |
| 21:29.38 | murb | you don't have lp0 mentioned anywhere in the klog? |
| 21:29.50 | resuDaed | klog = dmesg? |
| 21:29.55 | resuDaed | (then no) |
| 21:30.02 | murb | hmm |
| 21:30.06 | murb | did you build the kernel yourself? |
| 21:30.14 | resuDaed | eye69 did IIRC |
| 21:31.43 | murb | do you have the config-blah file for that kernel? |
| 21:31.52 | murb | and is CONFIG_PRINTER= set? |
| 21:32.06 | eye69 | DOH |
| 21:32.16 | eye69 | I might've missed including printer support. |
| 21:32.39 | resuDaed | is printer support more than just the parallel port support? |
| 21:32.59 | eye69 | Yes, it's in the Character support section |
| 21:33.22 | resuDaed | ah, would a make menuconfig bring up the previous config you used? |
| 21:33.43 | eye69 | Yes |
| 21:35.38 | resuDaed | ok, have added to config (included), so would make bzImage be enough? |
| 21:35.59 | resuDaed | or should make modular and just make modules? |
| 21:36.16 | eye69 | Make it modular. |
| 21:36.40 | resuDaed | then just make modules? |
| 21:37.18 | resuDaed | make dep && make modules ? |
| 21:37.37 | eye69 | 'make dep modules modules_install' |
| 21:39.50 | resuDaed | then? |
| 21:41.41 | resuDaed | then works :-) thanks |
| 21:44.46 | zachary | good night |
