00:25 <K-Yo> ct|kyle, I've put it back, If I was wrong to do so, feel free to re-remove it :P
00:28 <smoothice> K-Yo: How does one make a bot using Supybot?
00:28 <K-Yo> smoothice, I don't know, you probably need a machine to host it

00:28 <smoothice> K-Yo: What is teabot?
00:28 <K-Yo> smoothice, P4 did tronner and is the one who knows it best

01:25 <smoothice> luke-jr: Why is sty patch not compatible with latest arma trunk?
01:25 <luke-jr> smoothice: sty patch is based on old zones
01:26 <luke-jr> trunk has zones v2
01:26 <smoothice> Wait... What really _is_ zones v2?

01:31 <smoothice> luke-jr: "..." ?
01:31 <Lucifer> wrtlprnft: I don't know that it matters, I used smart_ptr because those were the docs I was reading at the time :)
01:32 <Lucifer> wrtlprnft: I also don't think it's being used at all yet
01:33 <Lucifer> smoothice: there's a bit of a story in the zone code
01:33 <Lucifer> do you want to hear it?  :)
01:33 <smoothice> Lucifer: sure
01:33 <Lucifer> ok, here goes
01:34 <Lucifer> luke-jr came out of nearly nowhere wanting to add multiple axes support to arma, and philippeqc (henceforce called ph) was working on maps
01:34 <Lucifer> this was before 0.2.8.0, but after 0.2.7.1
01:34 <Lucifer> those were the two big features added for 0.2.8
01:34 <Lucifer> during beta, I was running the first ever map rotating server, called The Crack Pipe, and people loved it
01:34 <Lucifer> there was a player, named zig (who I've seen recently), who asked if we could do capture the flag
01:35 <Lucifer> after thinking about it, I proposed on the forums that if the zones as they were then had certain traits (which they had), then it would be worth adding to 0.2.8 something resembling capture the flag
01:35 <Lucifer> z-man and ph got together and worked out what became fortress, generalizing as much as they could within the limitations of the code at the time, and ensuring backwards compatibility to older clients
01:35 <luke-jr> Lucifer: fwiw, the axes came with maps ;)
01:36 <Lucifer> luke-jr: I thought the two came together only after you and ph got together, but it doesn't matter really, because you and he got together and did the deed in any case :)
01:36 <smoothice> Lucifer: uh huh
01:36 <luke-jr> http://luke.dashjr.org/programs/hexatron/ is still up :þ
01:36 <Lucifer> anyway, fortress and the level of generalization that allowed sumo to develop from there are both heavily based on the old fortress zones
01:37 <Lucifer> er, old zones, I mean
01:37 <Lucifer> ph had a big brainstorm as a result of the work, however, and decided to completely rewrite the zone code to accomodate its use for other purposes
01:37 <Lucifer> since we had a proof of concept going into the 0.2.8 release (which turned out to be immensely popular, so if you see zig on the grid, thank him for being the catalyst)
01:37 <Lucifer> that rewrite became zones v2
01:38 <Lucifer> it was originally titled Shaped Zones, iirc
01:38 <smoothice> uh huh
01:38 <Lucifer> you'll have to read the docs, but it was basically the compelte generalization of what made a fortress zone, and the settings that go with it, incorporated into maps, and a number of targets of opportunity
01:38 <smoothice> Lucifer: So what can zones v2 do differently than v1?
01:38 <Lucifer> while he was working on that, groundpig came along wanting to hack together a soccer game
01:38 <Lucifer> as I said, you'll have to read the docs, they're on the wiki
01:39 <Lucifer> so groundpig wanted soccer, and he wanted it compatible with old clients
01:39 <Lucifer> he worked it up using the old zones code, and at this point an actual argument commenced between me and ph
01:39 <luke-jr> where did groundpig vanish to anyhow? :/
01:39 <Lucifer> I wanted to try to get groundpig to hook up with ph so that what ultimately became the sty patch could be incorporated into the design of zones v2
01:40 <Lucifer> ph said it was too much for zones v2, but zones v3 would be designed with that in mind
01:40 <Lucifer> when the two finally hooked up, they had a bit of a personality clash, which is weird because nobody ever clashes with ph
01:40 <Lucifer> so sty ended up based on the old zones, and then groundpig disappeared
01:40 <Lucifer> ph tried very hard to add at least the base functionality to zones v2, but couldn't see it and decided it really needed to wait for zones v3
01:41 <Lucifer> anyway, the reason it's called the "sty patch" is obviously a pun on groundpig's name, and the soccer game he created was called styball
01:41 <Lucifer> he added ctf after he did styball because he'd gotten his head wrapped around how to make a zone move
01:42 <luke-jr> groundpig named his server the Pig Sty
01:42 <smoothice> I remember that server
01:42 <Lucifer> his server kept running for awhile after he disappeared, but if you remember the server, it's possible you ran into the programmer :)
01:42 <Lucifer> it was somewhat popular, styball was, but ctf was even more popular, and for a time looked like it would eclipse fortress in popularity
01:43 <Lucifer> but alas, I think we created a completely new type of game when fortress hit the streets, and it's not dying anytime soon
01:43 <Lucifer> what's I find really neat about fortress is that as an intensely competitive team game, so it also came out of an intensely collaborative development team
01:43 <luke-jr> curiously, hoop has a hacked client that supports custom zone shapes
01:44 <Lucifer> I was vaguely aware of hoop's work, but not nearly as aware/involved as I was with sty, since I wound up being groundpig's "friend on the dev team" when he was doing it
01:44 <Lucifer> even so, groundpig did all the work :)
01:44 <Lucifer> so basically, we can't add the sty patch to the 0.2.8 branch until the trunk supports the same functionality
01:45 <Lucifer> the functionality has to be implemented in a way that's consistent with all the goals/parameters of the zones rewrite
01:45 <smoothice> Is it logical to port sty to zones v2?
01:45 <Lucifer> no, zones were completely rewritten in zones v2
01:45 <Lucifer> they're apples and oranges at this point
01:45 <Lucifer> however, it shouldn't be too hard to add it, really
01:45 <Lucifer> or so I think
01:46 <Lucifer> you need to have zones taht can be owned by players/teams, and can be picked up (the flag) and moved with the cycle
01:46 <smoothice> yeah
01:46 <Lucifer> ph may have done that, I don't know.  It was styball he was mostly worried about
01:46 <smoothice> But won't some of the sty patch's code sortof work/
01:46 <Lucifer> to get styball, you have to have zones that move on their own and react to the environment
01:46 <Lucifer> it's unlikely much of the sty patch's code will work, mainly because it wasn't well-designed in the first place
01:47 <Lucifer> groundpig is a good guy, and a good programmer, but he didn't apply high standards of quality to the patch :/
01:47 <smoothice> :/
01:47 <Lucifer> which makes accepting the patch into 0.2.8 at any point problematic, because we'd have to adopt his hack, and we have identified a few bugs that are terribly annoying and difficult to fix
01:47 <Lucifer> as a group, our attitude is that it's a wonderful addition to the game
01:48 <Lucifer> but we've discussed it more or less ad nauseum and it's unlikely to ever be accepted as-is
01:48 <smoothice> yeah
01:48 <Lucifer> unless someone were willing to address the concerns and adopt maintenance of the code
01:48 <Lucifer> so if you want to join the dev team, there's a path you can follow to do it, more than likely
01:48 <smoothice> But I thought 0.2.8 was under feature freeze..?
01:48 <Lucifer> 1) add ctf/styball to the trunk, consistent with the design of zones v2
01:49 <Lucifer> 2) fix the sty patch so it meets reasonable standards of quality and doesn't leak memory any more
01:49 <Lucifer> 3) there is a feature freeze for 0.2.8.3, but I feel about 60% confident we can get 0.2.8.4 if you've done both 1 and 2
01:50 <smoothice> On the forums someone said there were "a lot of new stuff in 2.8.3"
01:50 <Lucifer> do 2) in your own bzr branch, so it's ready to be pulled after 0.2.8.3 is released :)
01:50 <smoothice> What is that new stuff?
01:50 <Lucifer> I forget, it's a lot of little things, though
01:50 <Lucifer> but it's a *lot* of little things
01:50 <smoothice> oh ok
01:50 <Lucifer> authentication is the big thing, iirc
01:51 <smoothice> I have doubt I'd be able to add ctf/styball to the trunk, consistent with the design of zones v2
01:51 -!- hang3r [n=nathan@ppp59-167-104-56.lns1.hba1.internode.on.net] has joined #armagetron
01:51 <luke-jr> Lucifer: did 0.2.8.3 branch, btw?
01:51 <Lucifer> there is an alternative to that :)
01:51 <smoothice> alternative?
01:51 <Lucifer> make a hack for it, and make a patch, and ask for a review
01:52 <smoothice> a hack for what?
01:52 <smoothice> zones v2?
01:52 <Lucifer> then you'll get comments from somebody (either me, wrtlprnft, or z-man, more than likely) about how to make it consistent with the design of zones v2
01:52 <Lucifer> no, hack for ctf/styball for the trunk
01:52 <smoothice> oh
01:52 <smoothice> So trunk has zones v2?
01:52 <Lucifer> zones v2, more than anything else, is an idea on how the game will move forward to make many different games possible within the arma framework
01:52  * luke-jr wonders if 0.2.8.3 branching will cause chaos in the svn-bzr syncing
01:52 <Lucifer> trunk has zones v2, and it's finished, afaik
01:53 <Lucifer> luke-jr: it shouldn't, but it may wind up the first release branch created in bzr
01:53 -!- PinkTomato [n=Sam@5ac9eb9c.bb.sky.com] has quit [Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)]
01:53 <Lucifer> I expect the branch will happen at the same time the first beta is released, which is any day now (except the de facto release manager is on vacation in the world of Lisbions right now)
01:54 <Lucifer> wrtlprnft: what do you think about releasing 0.3.1 without a new sound engine?
01:54 <luke-jr> I guess it'd just be a normal svn branch followed by the usual bzr syncing
01:54  * Lucifer has just thought that it would be worthwhile to get zones v2 out in the world
01:54 <Lucifer> luke-jr: I'd expect that, too, to be honest
01:55 <Lucifer> might do that for 0.3.1, even
01:55 <Lucifer> I'm going to go bump the 0.3.1 release thread
01:55 <Lucifer> or make a new thread

02:13 <smoothice> lol
02:14 <smoothice> in the arma source how do I console out only to a certain player?
02:14 <BabyBug> player_message? or message_player?
02:15 <smoothice> hmmmmm
02:15 <BabyBug> should be able to find out how from knowing that =P

02:19 <smoothice> What file handles player messaging?
02:21 <smoothice> And what's tOutput versus tString?
02:21 <smoothice> What's the difference?
02:23 <BabyBug> The difference is what you can't see =)
02:23 <smoothice> huh?
02:31 <BabyBug> Exactly!
02:31 <smoothice> NO difference?
02:31 <BabyBug> I never said that.
02:31 <BabyBug> I just said you can't see it, can you not?
02:32 <smoothice> No I cannot
02:32 <BabyBug> Well that's the difference
02:33 <smoothice> The difference is there is no difference?
02:33 <BabyBug> No. The difference is what you can't see.
02:34 <smoothice> What about functionality difference?
02:36 <BabyBug> Well if you knew that, you'd be able to see it.
02:36 <smoothice> What is the functionality difference?

03:42 <sinewav> I can
03:43 <Lucifer> would you be willing to post as a proxy for me?  :)
03:43 <Lucifer> I can't, for some reason
03:43 <Lucifer> it may also be that I can't send you an email, either, since I'm having trouble sending email right now :/
03:44 <sinewav> sure, what do you need?
03:45 <Lucifer> start a thread under Development with content I give you, and make sure to say that it's from me (like [quote=Lucifer from IRC])
03:45 <Lucifer> copy and paste this short conversation we just had into it as authentication :)
03:46 <Lucifer> and if I can figure out how to send you the content besides copy and pasting here, I will
03:46 <Lucifer> or I'll just paste it here
03:46 <Lucifer> the thread should be titled "0.3.1 - Let's release it :)"
03:46 <sinewav> pasted
03:47 <Lucifer> I don't really want it to be a irc copy and paste for the main content, though, unless it's fairly easy to sanitize
03:47 <Lucifer> Ok, I've been doing some thinking.  As far as I know, the only thing we're really hanging up on for 0.3.1 is the new sound engine.  I don't think even the resource work is needed for what's there and ready to ship.
03:47 <Lucifer> I just got into yet another long conversation on why we won't accept the sty+hoop stuff into 0.2.8, and recalling a conversation with z-man some time ago on the subject.  One of the big hangups with it (besides the obvious fact that we want to permanently kill 0.2.8 pretty soon) is that until the trunk can offer the same functionality, we can't take it into 0.2.8, because that will just add more reasons we can't release
03:47 <Lucifer> 0.3.1.
03:47 <Lucifer> Switch gears for a minute.  Even if I start working on the sound engine tonight, it won't be ready for several months, more than likely.  It's got serious dependencies on changes in the resource system, and epsy argues that it also depends on the event branch he created (I disagree, but until it actually runs, there's no point in arguing).
03:47 <Lucifer> I propose we set the following development release goals:
03:47 <Lucifer> * 0.3.1 - just release off the trunk asap
03:47 <Lucifer> * 0.3.2 - new sound engine, possibly event framework
03:47 <Lucifer> * 0.3.3 - event framework, possibly GUI rewrite
03:47 <Lucifer> * 0.3.4 - new translation system (we've been slowly working towards gnu gettext, right?), first shot at finally assimilating all the existing construction sites (mostly hooking the cockpit into the event framework and gui system if it isn't already)
03:47 <Lucifer> Also, scripting should hopefully continue to progress throughout the releases made.
03:47 <Lucifer> We'll have to break our promise (mostly my promise) to restore the cycle sound in 0.3.1, but at this point, I think it's the right thing to do.  We're not getting anywhere without the 0.3.1 release, and we've had a number of prospective drive-by contributors that either wound up doing nothing, or continuing to patch 0.2.8.  We can't get them to contribute to the trunk without releases from the trunk, and that's mostly my
03:47 <Lucifer> fault, I suspect.  So let's make another release.
03:47 <Lucifer> Any objections?
03:48 <Lucifer> so, that's the whole content
03:48 <Lucifer> damn, Kmail isn't succeeding in sending my outgoing email
03:49 <Lucifer> not a good time to lose email!
03:50 <BabyBug> why's it not a good time? O.o

03:53 <Lucifer> ok, I'm going to reset my router and see if that helps
03:53 <sinewav> ok, almost done proofing
03:55 <sinewav> done.
03:56 <Lucifer> sinewav: thanks :)
03:56 <sinewav> np
03:57 <sinewav> did you want the smiley in the title and emoticon? I don't know how to do that

03:58 <Lucifer> no, I don't think it can be made an emoticon, but even if it can, I don't care :)
03:58 <sinewav> k
03:59 <Lucifer> read-only interenet access sucks (especially when I *can* write to irc)
04:01 <sinewav> that's crazy man. is it some kind of browser crash?
04:01 <Lucifer> I blame my ISP, to be honest
04:02 <Lucifer> none of my browsers will let me send a POST request to a website
04:02 <Lucifer> KMail is failing to reach google's smtp server
04:02 <Lucifer> I switched from someone else's open wireless network yesterday when it went down, back to the encrypted one available in my house (and managed by my roommate)
04:09 <Lucifer> well, suddenly,  I can post to the forums again

04:27 <BabyBug> Lucifer, tried the basic html version? or are you using an email client?
04:27 <Lucifer> BabyBug: yes, yes, yes
04:27 <BabyBug> yes to which?
04:28 <Lucifer> With the basic html version, I can't send mail, but I can read it
04:28 <Lucifer> same with email client
04:28 <BabyBug> oh

04:39 <Lucifer> I'd like to smack durka the next time he complains about glancing
04:39 <luke-jr> can I?
04:39 <luke-jr> actually, I think my real problem is just terrible FPS with trunk
04:39 <Lucifer> if you can physically smack durka, please do so as often as you can
04:39 <luke-jr> no, can I complain about stuff :þ
04:40 <luke-jr> when/if we ever get to releasing .4 or 1.0, I think we should do some optimization before bugfixing
04:40 <BabyBug> the glancing in 0.3 rocks \o/
04:40 <Lucifer> yes, the glancing in 0.3 rocks
04:41 <Lucifer> er, fix bugs, then optimize, then fix bugs, then optimize, etc, right?
04:41 <luke-jr> sure, whatever
04:41 <luke-jr> my point is that right now it's slow ;p
04:41 <Lucifer> well, I'm a go smoke while I'm waiting for IE to reinstall
04:41  * BabyBug agrees with luke-jr 
04:47 <Lucifer> well, ie6 doesn't work either
04:47  * Lucifer agrees with luke-jr too, but it has to get worse before it can get better

05:01 <BabyBug> i'm going to suggest your MTU settings is wrong in your router!
05:01 <Lucifer> MTU?
05:02 <BabyBug> i have no idea what it is either
05:02 <luke-jr> ROFL
05:02 <BabyBug> but i had problems similar to yours...changed it from 1454 to 1400 and everything worked perfect!
05:02 <luke-jr> BabyBug is probably right
05:02 <luke-jr> Lucifer: DSL?
05:02 <Lucifer> yes, dsl
05:03 <luke-jr> yah, that's it
05:03 <luke-jr> drop the MTU
05:03 <GodTodd> dsl, ftl
05:04  * BabyBug is a genius!
05:04 <Lucifer> it's 1500
05:05 <BabyBug> change it to 1400
05:05 <luke-jr> DSL can't do 1500
05:06 <ct|kyle> i have DSL and my MTU is 1500
05:07 <luke-jr> ct|kyle: liar
05:07 <ct|kyle> truth
05:07 <luke-jr> ct|kyle: liar
05:07 <ct|kyle> truth
05:07 <luke-jr> ct|kyle: liar
05:08 <BabyBug> luke-jr, you're wrong
05:08 <ct|kyle> I never changed it from default
05:08 <GodTodd> i'd drop it to 1400 myself
05:08 <ct|kyle> The normal MTU (Maximum Transmit Unit) value for most Ethernet networks is 1500 Bytes, 1492 Bytes for PPPoE connections, or 1436 for PPTP connections. For some ISPs you may need to reduce the MTU. But this is rarely required, and should not be done unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection.
05:08 <luke-jr> ct|kyle: any sane DSL connection would default to a reasonable value
05:08 <luke-jr> ct|kyle: DSL is PPPoE
05:08 <GodTodd> had to do that for a few people when i did dsl support...you know...for a living ;)
05:09 <ct|kyle> GodTodd: that must have sucked LOL
05:09 <GodTodd> yup...it did
05:09 <GodTodd> and i was second tier...meant we got the *really* fucked people :)
05:10 <ct|kyle> i always got mad at them when i was locked out of specific sites
05:10 <ct|kyle> then they wanted me to transfer to their payed support
05:10 <GodTodd> although dialup connections on windows were the worst to tech
05:11 <GodTodd> not because they're hard...they're really easy but the users were, shall we say, not the brightest
05:11 <ct|kyle> LOL, Ya, I just dealt with that this weekend
05:11 <GodTodd> try walking a clueless person through a full nuke and pave...on the phone :/
05:12 <GodTodd> on win98 no less
05:12 <ct|kyle> heh, I had to walk my grandpa thought sending pictures, luckily i was there to help him
05:12 <GodTodd> a nuke and pave...in case you're wondering...is a full uninstall/reinstall of the tcp/ip stack
05:13 <GodTodd> very effective but also kinda dangerous if you don't know what you're doing
05:13 <ct|kyle> ya

05:14 <GodTodd> heh...i've not had to tech one hands on...just over the phone
05:15 <ct|kyle> maybe i'll call my ISP and ask them what the MTU should be
05:15 <GodTodd> although, i must admit, mac osx made dialup connections even easier to tech
05:16 <GodTodd> i get pissed when i have to call verizon tech support because they try to make me do all the level 1 teching that i've already done :)
05:16 <ct|kyle> GodTodd: ya, I know
05:16 <ct|kyle> I just say i did it even if i did not
05:16 <GodTodd> i've had to call twice...once the modem was bad...the second time was an unknown (until i called) outage
05:17 <GodTodd> heh...i actually do the level 1 stuff...it's really easy and stuff that i think of first anyway
05:17 <ct|kyle> surprisingly my modem never went out, My grandma's did, so i was in on the call for that
05:17 <GodTodd> heh
05:18 <GodTodd> sometimes it's hell to convince them that the problem is the equipment
05:18 <GodTodd> but when you have *no* lights except the one on the actual adapter and that one's blinking...it's probably bad hardware
05:18 <GodTodd> :)
05:18 <ct|kyle> ya
05:19 <ct|kyle> when i found it, first thing i did was check the voltage going into it
05:19 <ct|kyle> coming out of the adapter
05:19 <GodTodd> yep
05:20 <ct|kyle> I think that was the problem too
05:21 <GodTodd> heh...with the outage...that was funny...the dude on the phone said "okay we'll reset the modem from here" i said "will that fix the tv too?"
05:21 <ct|kyle> for about 4 hours i was locked out of Crazy-tronners.com, that was the last time i called them
05:21 <BabyBug> Lucifer_arma, Did it fix it?
05:21 <GodTodd> he said "oh, that's out too?"  and i said "that's what i meant by i have no internet or tv"
05:22 <ct|kyle> heh
05:23 <GodTodd> overall, i've been impressed with FIOS tho
05:24 <ct|kyle> we have almost FIOS speed with just regular DSL, so we have not upgraded

05:57 <BabyBug> Lucifer_arma, when the router said MTU of 1500..Was it displaying the MTU for the network, or for the broadband link?

06:00 <smoothice> Ok I'm not completely opposed to them.. just something new I didn't expect when I used 0.3 for the first time.
06:00 <Lucifer_arma> in any case, we're not getting rid of this camera behavior, and the cameras need significant rewriting to be able to support both
06:01 <smoothice> oh
06:01 <smoothice> Sorry for being.... opposed then :D
06:01 <smoothice> Didn't mean to be a knee-jerk.. whatever that means anyway

06:01 <smoothice> ok
06:01 <Lucifer_arma> but if you take your first impression of something and come in here blasting at us for it, that' sa knee-jerk reaction :)
06:02 <smoothice> ok
06:02 <smoothice> Just wondering since I really like 0.3 features but wanted an 0.2 feel :D
06:02 <Lucifer_arma> every single new release contains changes that make some of the older players angry :)
06:03 <BabyBug> Like segmentation faults!
06:03 <Lucifer_arma> some of those changes are the result of bug fixes, heh
06:03 <Lucifer_arma> BabyBug: that's a feature, not a bug!

06:19 <hang3r> Lucifer_arma: Are you using PPPOE or PPPOA?
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> hang3r: fuck if I know
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> MTU:	1400
06:20 <hang3r> if you have the ability to change it and if your provider supports it you may find PPPOE more stable over PPPOA, at least that is how I have found it in the past
06:21 <hang3r> if it was PPPOA and assuming your ISP actually set your MTU correctly, then 1500 is normal for PPPOA
06:22 <hang3r> if however, you are using PPPOE it is incorrect and will causing fragmenting
06:22 <hang3r> PPPOE has an 8bit overhead, thus 1492
06:23 <hang3r> err 8byte
06:23 <GodTodd> yeah...what i've read on 2wires is that 1492 is best
06:23 <BabyBug> hang3r, That's not always the case though...
06:24 <hang3r> BabyBug: It's only not the case if you providers DSLAM is ancient or they have no idea what they're doing

06:33 <Lucifer_arma> well, my problem isn't fixed
06:33 <BabyBug> =(
06:33 <hang3r> Lucifer_arma: do you have line filters on all your telephony related devices? Or do you have a Central line splitter?
06:33 <Lucifer_arma> only telephone plugged in that I"m aware of is a VOIP phone
06:33  * BabyBug gives Lucifer_arma a hammer and then goes to her lair to sleep...night! \o
06:34 <GodTodd> you have an alarm system there at all?
06:34 <Lucifer_arma> ok, I set my upstream MTU to 1492
06:34 <hang3r> try that
06:34 <Lucifer_arma> DSLAM:	Country: {0xB5} Vendor: {GSPN} Specific: {0x153}
06:34  * GodTodd is trying to remember the level 1 dsl shit.
06:35 <Lucifer_arma> I'm on the 1492 setting right now
06:35 <smoothice> Lucifer_arma: What's your DSL speed?
06:35 <Lucifer_arma> Current Rate:		25216 kbs 		2048 kbs
06:35 <Lucifer_arma> Max Rate:		62236 kbs 		Not Available
06:35 <smoothice> That's DSL?
06:36 <smoothice> Digital Subscriber Line? 25 megabits?
06:36 <hang3r> You're sync'ed quite high, that would indicate that you have a good connection, it may be a provider problem lucifer
06:36 <hang3r> nothing anyone tells you here will help
06:37 <hang3r> contact them and bs to them telling them when it rains you get strange packet loss and cant browse the internet
06:37 <GodTodd> haha
06:37 <hang3r> pretend you know nothing about "the internet" and how it works
06:37 <hang3r> that's the only way they will even investigate your problem
06:38 <GodTodd> also, don't volunteer that you run linux
06:39 <GodTodd> last i knew, isp support of linux was "give them settings and get them off the phone"
06:40 <smoothice> lol
06:40 <GodTodd> though, it does sound like a 2wire or line problem
06:41 <GodTodd> is there a computer hooked directly to the gateway?
06:41 <hang3r> hes not responding to pings again
06:41 <GodTodd> ah
06:41 <hang3r> i'd say he is testing
06:41 <GodTodd> heh

07:34 <Lucifer> it's the wireless that's fucked up
07:34 <Lucifer> I just plugged my own router in and it seems to be working fine
07:35 <luke-jr> it's MTU
07:37 <GodTodd> Lucifer, as i said, 2wire's wireless sucks :)
07:37 <Lucifer> indeed, it was because you said that that I plugged in my own router to see what happened :)
07:37 <GodTodd> yep
07:37 <GodTodd> i should have suggested that myself
07:37 <GodTodd> heh
07:39 <GodTodd> i might bite the bullet and upgrade to 8.10 this week
07:39 <Lucifer> I'm not, my computer isn't fast enough for KDE4 yet
07:39 <luke-jr> Lucifer: turn off the effects
07:39 <Lucifer> except, I don't know, maybe the 2wire's wireless was the cause of my memory leak
07:39 <luke-jr> oh, that
07:40 <GodTodd> my only concern is the wireless card...but all reports indicate they may have the broadcom shit fixed now
07:40 <luke-jr> just kill plasma and restart it every few days
07:40 <luke-jr> maybe more often if yuo use nVidia
07:41 <GodTodd> kde4 definitely looks different
07:41 <GodTodd> i upgraded my wife's laptop and the kitchen machine a while back
07:41 <luke-jr> tbh, about the only real difference I note is the taskbar being black by default
07:42 <GodTodd> nah...the menus are way different
07:42 <GodTodd> on my wife's at least
07:42 <GodTodd> i don't go on the kitchen machine a lot
07:42 <luke-jr> oh
07:42 <luke-jr> I didn't really use KDE 3 menus
07:42 <luke-jr> I only use KDE 4's because it lacks a quicklaunch
07:43 <GodTodd> no quicklaunch?
07:43 <GodTodd> :/
07:43 <luke-jr> supposedly 4.2 will have it
07:43 <luke-jr> hopefully 4.2 will bring a usable calendar too
07:43 <GodTodd> when's that due out?  any target date yet?
07:44 <luke-jr> Q1 2009 AFAIK
07:44 <GodTodd> not too long then
07:45 <GodTodd> i mean...no quicklaunch isn't a dealbreaker but it's kinda handy sometimes
07:45 <GodTodd> heh
07:46 <luke-jr> January 27th, 2009: Release KDE 4.2
07:46 <GodTodd> i imagine ubuntu would push that through updates
07:46 <luke-jr> December 16th, 2008: Release KDE 4.2 Beta 2
07:46 <luke-jr> On 18th December 2008, KDE 4.2 Beta 2 a.k.a. "Canaria" was released by the KDE community,
07:46 <luke-jr> they're only slightly behind schedule

09:49 <Lucifer_arma> you go to your router to do that, right?
09:50 <GodTodd> is it the port forwarding thing?
09:50 <Lucifer_arma> ummm, and you give it your computer's internal IP address
09:50 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, for port forwarding
09:50 <Lucifer_arma> you tell it to forward, er, wait, I think we have a handy link for that somewhere in armaland

10:04 <Lucifer_arma> I should be able to get your site up with it, then, too
10:04 <GodTodd> not sure if i'll revamp it or not
10:04 <Lucifer_arma> you won't be able to make any changes the usual way (i.e. you'll have to go through me), but when I get the server back in here, we'll be back to normal
10:04 <GodTodd> i probably should sometime
10:04 <Lucifer_arma> that'll hopefully be sometime next week
10:05 <GodTodd> that's cool

10:05 <GodTodd> yeah
10:05 <Lucifer_arma> although, my website was always a little spire of independence in my marriage, so maybe it's no big deal now

12:14 <Lucifer_arma> but my problems went away when I plugged in my own router
12:14 <Lucifer_arma> I'm still blaming the wireless for it, but it's still interesting
12:18 <akira_arma> did anyone post anything about the reason?
12:20 <akira_arma> DoS or just screw up of the technicians there?

17:48 <smoothice> When are we going to see 0.2.8.3 out?
17:48 <akira_arma> hoepfully never
17:48 <smoothice> It was expected on the 25th?
17:48 <akira_arma> i cant ge t the glances to work like in 0.8.2.1
17:49 <akira_arma> which sucks
17:49 <akira_arma> :(
17:49 <akira_arma> 0.2.8.1*
17:50 <wrtlprnft> akira_arma: err, they shouldn't have changed all that much
17:50 <wrtlprnft> i think you're talking about 0.3.x
17:50 <akira_arma> yea
17:50 <akira_arma> 0.3
17:50 <smoothice> wrtlprnft: when are we going to see 2.8.3?
17:50 <wrtlprnft> well, 0.2.8.3 != 0.3.1
17:50 <akira_arma> *new ones
17:52 <wrtlprnft> by the way, there's a new windows trunk build on aabeta with some minor fixes, for everyone who uses 0.3
17:52 <wrtlprnft> tbh, i think the default behavior sucks
17:52 <wrtlprnft> i have it set so the camera doesn't turn at all by itself
17:53 <wrtlprnft> and i use glances to rotate it by π/2 when i need to look at something else
17:53 <wrtlprnft> works great for fortress imho
17:53 <smoothice> I just built the 0.2.8 branch client and It seems all ready for  0.2.8.3
17:56 <ct|kyle> i think they are waiting on z-man to get back to package it up, Just my guess, I also think they have 2 bug fixes left
17:56 <wrtlprnft> err, my down key stopped working
17:57 <smoothice> ct|kyle: oh ok
17:58 <ct|kyle> heh, Just read on the forums from z-man, "That's basically what we're doing, apart from the fact that we're not just blindly building 0.2.8.3. First, we're going to fix the bugs we can fix without a new release (there's a couple left), then there's an alpha build and we work from there. "

18:04  * luke-jr pokes z-man.
18:06 <z-man> what?
18:07 <luke-jr> z-man: is 0.2.8.3 going to branch? ;)
18:07 <z-man> No.
18:07 <luke-jr> oh
18:07 <z-man> It's the final release in 0.2.8, so there's no need.
18:08 <luke-jr> what if I have a small enhancement? it needs to wait for trunk?
18:08 <z-man> YES.
18:08  * z-man is slighly annoyed because he's losing this whole day to merging 0.2.8 to trunk
18:09 <luke-jr> oh
18:09 <z-man> And it's the same every time.
18:10 <luke-jr> am I using update.py correctly? it seems to be implying Polish, French, Spanish, and Deutsch require updating
18:14 <z-man> Yes, they do require updating. I'll take a look at German, but the others are essentially community maintained, so they're supposed to be out of date.
