00:57.42 | keithlard_ | he's been in hiding! due to crime! |
00:57.58 | keithlard_ | no not reely... he is just busy with 106 children ekcetera |

08:01.40 | Leeds | you mean anally raped? |
08:08.37 | morsing | Leeds: I mean smokeping no longer runs because a file is missing?! |
08:11.24 | Leeds | ah, I misunderstood |
08:11.42 | morsing | Leeds: You always do |
08:13.17 | morsing | How do I get apt-cache to show a list of files in a package? |
08:18.36 | mozrat | dpkg -L packagename |
08:18.39 | mozrat | or maybe -l |
08:18.51 | mozrat | or do you mean packages that aren't installed yet |
08:19.12 | morsing | So that file was never part of the package |
08:19.22 | morsing | I'm confused. I've definately seen it |
08:19.44 | morsing | mozrat: Why did procmail stop working? |
08:20.22 | mozrat | because it wanted to get to the other side |
08:20.50 | mozrat | morsing you can pass dpkg a filename and get it to return which package it is a part of |
08:24.08 | morsing | dpkg: *smokeping.pl* not found. |

08:41.30 | mozrat | I'm looking forward to I.E on Linux. Stupid stupid firefox can go suck |

08:41.46 | morsing | Can't believe I have to drive to the datacenter to get the serial number and modek number of this stupid Linux system |
08:42.07 | morsing | mozrat: Why is my procmail no longer working? |
08:42.45 | sabinef72 | mozrat: try mozilla |
08:43.57 | mozrat | morsing: Did you compile it with the --use-the-force-luke flag? |
08:44.10 | mozrat | sabinef72: I'm joking :-) |
08:48.05 | morsing | mozrat: It doesn't even touch my .procmailrc |
08:48.18 | sabinef72 | firefox is not so good on my computer, that's the reason why I'm using mozilla |

10:59.59 | Blapto | Thanks keith |
11:01.53 | z00dax | flips_and_rails: sure |
11:02.29 | Leeds | some combination of the network (i.e. local or network-located firewall) and IE, on my sister's computer at work is stopping her getting/saving/returning a cookie from my webmail software |
11:02.32 | flips_and_rails | gnudo's problem is that shell will expand $UNAME_RELEASE how it likes, a string which isn't interpreted in single quotes would be more likely to work |
11:02.58 | z00dax | Leeds: adblock or something such |
11:03.05 | flips_and_rails | z00dax: good, fancy offering some knowlege?! |
11:03.56 | flips_and_rails | pls ? :S |
11:03.58 | z00dax | flips_and_rails: sure, yum install mod_dav_svn |
11:04.07 | flips_and_rails | got that |
11:04.24 | z00dax | look in the subversion.conf file it drops in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ and create the svn repo |
11:04.31 | flips_and_rails | Its the apache conf that i think is failing and I can't figure why |
11:04.42 | z00dax | then /usr/sbin/setenforce 0; point browser at httpd, and it works! |
11:05.00 | z00dax | the mod_dav is the apache bit... |
11:05.13 | z00dax | it just pulls in everything else it needs ( like subversion! ) |
11:05.35 | z00dax | wnat me to show you what I have in the subversion.conf ? |
11:05.41 | z00dax | want! |
11:06.50 | flips_and_rails | well I have a system which doens't have such niceties as yum so I have to do things on the manual side |
11:06.59 | Leeds | z00dax: possibly... she can't (or won't) install a proper browser, and obviously knows nothing about her network |
11:07.24 | z00dax | flips_and_rails: http://pastebin.ca/243357 does this help ? |
11:07.58 | z00dax | flips_and_rails: with that in place, i goto the server at http://server/svn/<repo-name>/ |
11:08.10 | z00dax | ( need that last / , or I get 403 ) |
11:08.14 | flips_and_rails | ah yes I have all those things in my apache.conf |

16:11.34 | morsing | My procmail iis broken and you account for half the spam in my inbox at the moment! |
16:12.35 | z00dax | :) |
16:12.39 | SlayerXP | my messages count as spam? |
16:12.43 | morsing | Yes... |
16:12.46 | morsing | Always |
16:12.47 | SlayerXP | if so, then you have 6 in total |
16:13.02 | SlayerXP | that seems like a manageable number |
16:13.30 | SlayerXP | anyway, blame z00dax |
16:13.39 | SlayerXP | he was mean, and didn't explain himself properly. |
16:13.48 | z00dax | :) |
16:14.04 | z00dax | too much stored up saracm does that to me, i should seek help |
16:16.04 | SlayerXP | I dread "I have RHEL.." question because they almost always mean "I have RHEL that I installed from some pinched media, I then proceeded to install and awful lot of third party RPMs on it and now my 'server' has a problem. HELP!" |
16:16.43 | z00dax | true |
16:20.09 | z00dax | yeah, and cross posting sux. |

17:05.53 | keithlard_ | hmm, is there a better spreadsheet than gnumeric? I'm finding it slightly annoying |
17:06.22 | Cope | excel? |
17:06.34 | Cope | lotus123? |
17:06.39 | keithlard_ | ironically, excel probably is the best |
17:06.47 | Cope | I like sc best |
17:06.57 | keithlard_ | hmm... actually sc would be great |
17:07.11 | Cope | sc rocks |
17:07.12 | keithlard_ | i wonder if there's a way to produce nice pdfs from it? |
17:08.00 | keithlard_ | sc has the bonus that if you do not understand something, you can just read the c code, which is quite straightforward |
17:11.36 | zachary | keithlard_ OpenOffice has been working great for me. Actually it is the NeoOffice/J derivative for Mac. But still I'm happy with it. |
17:14.12 | keithlard_ | zachary> thanks. i don't get on that well with the ooo word processor, though, as it seems to have all the user interface horror of word, but without the microsoft compatibility |
17:14.22 | keithlard_ | i imagine the spreadsheet is similar |
17:15.11 | *** join/#gllug JohnDoe667 (n=JohnDoe6@82-69-10-95.dsl.in-addr.zen.co.uk) |
17:16.25 | keithlard_ | look at this workflow from gnumeric which illustrates the kind of thing i'm talking about |
17:16.34 | keithlard_ | i go to copy a value from one spreadsheet and paste it into another |
17:17.01 | keithlard_ | but instead of pasting the value, it pastes the formula which computed the value - which is of course meaningless on a different sheet, so it changes the formula to '=sum(#REF!)' |
17:17.34 | keithlard_ | i click inside the formula and drag the mouse to select the range of cells i want to sum, but now it makes the formula '=sum(#REFC9:12)', which doesn't work |
17:17.56 | keithlard_ | so i edit it manually to remove the #REF!, but now it's changed the formula into the literal string '=sum(C9:C12)' which isn't what i want |
17:18.19 | keithlard_ | it would have been fewer keystrokes to just manually type the value in... |
17:18.54 | *** join/#gllug Blapto|Work (n=blank@213.86.240.154) |
17:19.05 | keithlard_ | it's a fine example of inhumane interfaces |
17:25.20 | zachary | Under NeoOffice/J. Highlight the formula you want to copy, so that it is displayed in the "input line." Highlight the input line. Change spreadsheets. Tag and drag the input line to the desired block. |
17:25.58 | keithlard_ | what i want is an option to 'copy value' instead of 'copy formula' |
17:26.42 | keithlard_ | actually i suppose there is a way to link two sheets which would be better |
17:26.49 | keithlard_ | i do not know how though :( |
17:31.28 | keithlard_ | another example: every time i create a pdf it forgets the name and location of the last pdf i generated. so i have to navigate through a long and tedious directory structure and enter a long filename every single time |
17:31.38 | zachary | try looking for a "paste special" with an option to link. The reference for the new cell look like "=$Sheet1.$A$1" |
17:31.50 | keithlard_ | naw, paste special doesn't work in gnumeric |
17:31.53 | Leeds | hey zachary... |
17:32.07 | zachary | hi Leeds! |
17:32.15 | Leeds | how goes it? |
17:32.16 | keithlard_ | it might do if it was separate worksheets in the same file, but these are two different files |
17:34.10 | zachary | NeoOffice can do external document linking. Which, I would guess the OpenOffice can. Just using the Paste Special and mark the link option. |
17:34.40 | zachary | Leeds, doing pretty good. The Wife is back on the 17th :) |
17:34.52 | keithlard_ | leeds, any luck with the job hunting :> |
17:35.09 | Leeds | keithlard_: uh... haven't quite gotten around to any yet |
17:36.00 | Leeds | nope... but I *am* going to be looking at money issues relatively soon, so I should get on with it |
17:36.22 | zachary | Leeds, try MS. I hear they are taking on Linux experts now. |
17:37.19 | Leeds | ha ha... don't you mean Novell? |
17:37.43 | Leeds | they actually do have some open jobs in HK, but obviously not Linux ones |
17:39.18 | zachary | Leeds, just trying to make a sad MS/Novell joke. Which in trueth is a very sad matter. When Novell bought Suse I had a notion that something bad was going to happen. |
17:39.37 | keithlard_ | have you seen the ricky gervais / stephen merchant 'microsoft values' videos? very funny |
17:40.19 | zachary | keithlard_ I have not seen it. Got a link? |
