15:30.31 | Guest41136 | Hi peoples |
15:33.31 | Guest41136 | Don't ask me how I got here - I just did! But under a guest name? Um. I've just survived joining BT Infinity. Not without losses. like my e-mail ... |
15:40.02 | Guest41136 | I HAD installed PClinuxOS. VERY nice. NO can do for e-mail though 'cos it's LINUX, INNIT! Ok, I install the probably better-known Ubuntu, the latest 10.10., Now, e-mail password's not recognised cos I had to "wipe" the router (the home hub!) So now, nuffink, 'cept thankfully xchat. Happy days ... |
15:42.40 | z00dax | no email sounds like quite a desireable result |
15:43.13 | Guest41136 | I had this fond hope, That amongst those connecting to this channel, there might be someone who, even though linux-aware, might have some better advice than pier-jumping ... |
15:44.01 | z00dax | I'm on bethere, host my own email - so no idea what/how BTI is setup |
15:44.03 | Guest41136 | Go on - enjoy! |
15:44.35 | z00dax | have had something through the post a few days back giving us the good news that BTI is now available in our area. |
15:44.55 | Guest41136 | Yeah, so did I. |
15:45.12 | z00dax | so whats the big win on BTI compared with a regular adsl provider ? |
15:45.50 | Guest41136 | OK, I HAD been with Demon. 'nuff said? |
15:46.20 | z00dax | humm yeah, Demon has had better days |
15:46.41 | z00dax | also, looks like BTI has some sort of a internet + tv + phone thing going on |
15:46.45 | Leeds | I use gmail nowadays |
15:46.51 | kjs | bti is fater? |
15:46.53 | kjs | faster |
15:47.01 | z00dax | and upto 40mbps..maybe its worth a look see |
15:47.08 | kjs | Guest41136: let me get this right you cant setup an email client? |
15:47.15 | z00dax | Leeds: not moved to @facebook.com yet :) |
15:47.27 | Leeds | that is not a going-to-happen thing :) |
15:47.44 | kjs | haha |
15:48.16 | kjs | So who has any predictions about that failing? |
15:48.36 | z00dax | if they do it, it wont fail. unless there are technical issues behind it. |
15:48.58 | kjs | who wants to use an @facebook email address though? |
15:49.12 | z00dax | kjs: I'd say a vast majority of the internet wont mind |
15:49.21 | z00dax | erm, i mean Internet users |
15:49.23 | ChoHag | I'm so glad I'm not here to work on this place's codebase. |
15:49.25 | Guest41136 | Hi kjs: under Ubuntu I have Evolution nearly set up, awaiting only the acceptance of the passwortd (which i'd earlier wiped in "wiping" the router. |
15:49.39 | ChoHag | Fuck me but I had no idea perl could be written *this* badly. |
15:50.38 | kjs | z00dax: yeah i guess you have a point. |
15:50.39 | Leeds | oh it can |
15:51.18 | wethrin | ChoHag: You looking at the Perl that comes with Big Brother? |
15:51.29 | ChoHag | No this company's own app. |
15:51.39 | ChoHag | s/ /, / |
15:52.05 | z00dax | Guest41136: why not move to something ISP agnostic and not need to worry about this in the future ? |
15:52.13 | z00dax | Guest41136: eg: gmail and friends |
15:52.40 | kjs | I dont understand how resetting the router will affect your email. |
15:52.44 | Guest41136 | THAT sounds liike it ... |
15:52.58 | kjs | what does? |
15:54.14 | z00dax | specially if you have 'lost' your last address, this might be a good time to rebase over to something that wont go down with your isp. and i think gmail is a safe bet, for now. |
15:54.49 | kjs | I agree, I use gmail for my personal mail. |
15:55.30 | wethrin | I run my own mail system |
15:56.00 | Guest41136 | kjs et al: blurry good advice, by the sound of it. I'll give it a go ... |
15:58.18 | Guest41136 | Bye for now. I hope to return soon, more properly as mumper, then. I'll let you know how this old fart's got on ... |
16:00.14 | kjs | I thought that guy was trolling |
16:00.29 | wethrin | No |
16:03.09 | kjs | hum it seems I need a facebook "username" |
16:44.04 | z00dax | better get it now kjs before the only ones available are kjs5687 |
17:08.08 | ChoHag | Why the ever-living fuck does centos restrict write access to /var/lock?? |
17:36.17 | z00dax | ChoHag: it doesn't |
17:36.22 | z00dax | you just need to get your groups right |
17:39.14 | ChoHag | It does restrict it. |
17:39.23 | ChoHag | It restricts it to root and members of the lock group. |
17:39.50 | z00dax | yup, so if you need proc's / users's writing their locks there, put them in the lock group |
17:41.06 | z00dax | actually, there was something in the lsb recently about this. |
17:41.13 | z00dax | cant remember if it was for or against the lock group :D |
17:41.25 | ChoHag | Against, hopefully. It's silly. |
