00:00.59 | zoot | You at Otago? |
00:01.09 | zoot | (university of) |
00:01.13 | fng_sma | Yes. Have you been there? |
00:01.29 | zoot | no, but i know (vaguely) one of the CS professors |
00:01.42 | zoot | guy called Stephen Crainefield |
00:02.00 | fng_sma | Erm... don't know him yet, I think, but wait. |
00:02.36 | zoot | I've only met him a couple of times, but he came and gave a talk in bath last year. |
00:03.01 | fng_sma | Couldn't see him on the picture wall, but it is pretty outdated. |
00:03.10 | zoot | http://www.commerce.otago.ac.nz/infosci/People/Staff/staff.htm?user=scranefield |
00:03.24 | zoot | anyway, its a small world, especially in New Zealand |
00:04.08 | fng_sma | oh yes it is, and a huge bunch of Germans are here. A third of the international students are from the states (obviously) and another one from Germany. |
00:04.27 | fng_sma | No, I haven't yet met him. Maybe he has to travel around a lot :-) |
00:04.42 | zoot | he is probably in japan at a conference at the moment, so yes... |
00:05.10 | zoot | Yes, he was trying to sell the outreach funding program thingy when he was here. |
00:06.21 | fng_sma | outreach funding? What is that about? |
00:06.45 | zoot | The NZ govornment is doing a lot of things to get International researchers and students to go to NZ |
00:07.15 | zoot | like removing barriers to student funding for international students. |
00:07.43 | zoot | their academic system is almost identical to ours, except they have modernised more |
00:08.34 | fng_sma | Well, as for computer science, they are having really cool papers down here. Especially for vision and ai. |
00:09.19 | fng_sma | I'm doing a ai paper and the first assignment was to build a trail laying lego robot. And now we simulate flock of birds. Makes a lot of fun. |
00:10.09 | zoot | sounds cool |
00:10.29 | zoot | are you Undergrad or Postgrad ? |
00:11.38 | fng_sma | In germany I'm a fourth year math major, but I'm not doing a bachelor or master degree, it's an old German "diplom". So I'm rather a postgrad than a undergrad. |
00:11.45 | fng_sma | What about you? |
00:12.22 | zoot | Ph.D. (allegedly) finishing my thesis ;-) |
00:12.56 | fng_sma | oh well, not too bad :), or "sweet as" as they would say here. |
00:14.10 | fng_sma | In what are you (allegedly) doing your research? |
00:15.08 | fng_sma | !seen neal |
00:15.23 | fng_sma | ~!seen neal |
00:15.39 | fng_sma | ah, do you remember how the command is? |
00:16.04 | zoot | \msg nickserve seen foo |

13:27.37 | pb_ | <florian> pb__: the event dialog is tricky |
13:27.38 | pb_ | that one |

13:29.22 | florian | not sure... right. maybe i'm outdated... let me try |

14:33.20 | florian | lolita__: pretty good... busy as always but i have some time for gpe hacking today. |
14:34.08 | lolita__ | florian: ... ah yeah ... didn't do anything for gpe for a long time now |
14:34.27 | lolita__ | currently i'm on some kinda php hacking for creating nicer apache directory listings |
14:35.00 | lolita__ | ... now we are so far, that i can create pdf, and certain source file previews ;) its kinda nice but ... to buggy for a first release |
14:35.50 | florian | lolita__: uh php |
14:37.12 | florian | here it *sounds* like i should spend some time with Jonas :-) |
14:37.26 | lolita__ | hehe ;) |
14:37.45 | florian | pb_, neal: almost... a few pixels are mising now. and i know how to get them :-) |
14:37.51 | lolita__ | ja i know stupid php ... but its just so easy going coding ... |
14:38.24 | florian | lolita__: i know, most more complex web stuff is php - there must be a reason. |
14:39.21 | lolita__ | jep florian people are getting their hands on very easy and then projects are growing and then its to late to switch to a real programming language |
14:42.04 | florian | i want to find out how lua performa on the pdas, but the bb for it will be nasty. |
14:44.15 | florian | eh performs |
14:44.36 | koen | florian: you could embed the lua engine in libgpewidget |
14:44.45 | koen | iirc it's about ~40kB |
14:47.04 | florian | maybe some time if it performs well. so far i need to fight gtk-lua's configure script first. (where configure is a handcrafted script) |

15:31.44 | florian | hmm... what reads and executes the stuff from our /etc/X11/Xinit.d? |
15:32.25 | florian | enodr: i guess you want the xserver-common package |
15:32.54 | florian | that one has the scripts and tools to fire up X on various devices |
15:34.46 | enodr | florian: I looked at it, but could not find what to run... well I am doing some tests and it seems that making a simple script like: "Xfbserver & \n export DISPLAY=:0.0 \n exec rxvt" is fine |
15:36.44 | florian | it fits |
15:37.49 | florian | neal: http://handhelds.org/scap/port.4998.png |
15:40.11 | pb_ | rock! |

15:41.03 | florian | bbr, food |
15:41.04 | pb_ | ah, I see, you shortened the text labels |
15:41.21 | florian | yes a little bit... |
15:41.29 | pb_ | I was always a bit scared to do that, since it might mean that users in other languages lose out |
15:41.49 | pb_ | does it fit in German, say? |
15:42.35 | pb_ | it looks like there's still quite some wasted space in those entry fields. I guess we should try to reclaim that. |
15:42.57 | florian | yes it should... packaging freed up some additional pixels |
15:43.23 | florian | but indeed, some languages might be problematic |
15:43.49 | pb_ | okay, cool |
15:44.02 | pb_ | well, making it fit in English is still a significant improvement :-) |
