20:57 wizzyrea_       thks, probably going away again though. :)
20:55 cait            hi wizzyrea
20:55 chris           wb wizzyrea_
20:46 cait            si++
20:46 jessew          si++
20:46 jessew          Oy
20:46 chris           than it was supposed to
20:45 chris           si just got this up and running because the isp cut off the other server 3 weeks earlier
20:45 jessew          Yeah, there's always some tiny little thing like that
20:45 chris           we have to make a few config changes
20:45 jessew          but this is a start
20:45 jessew          Also a DDOS in protest
20:45 jessew          Well
20:45 chris           heh
20:45 cait            so easy?
20:44 cait            :)
20:44 pianohac1       I might as well give into it
20:44 pianohac1       Peer pressure
20:44 pianohac1       Bah
20:43 cait            :)
20:43 chris           :)
20:43 chris           8 chars is more than enough for any username
20:43 pianohac1       You terse kiwis might not have noticed this, but it's maxing out at 9 chars :)
20:43 chris           im sure there is
20:42 pianohac1       chris: is there any way to increase the username length limit?
20:28 gmcharlt        hi cait
20:27 cait            hi gmcharlt
20:26 gmcharlt        chris_n_b: help
20:23 cait            but you were successful in qualification
20:23 cait            :)
20:22 chris           ranked 78 in the world .. we are lucky to even be there :-)
20:22 cait            nz is my joker in our company's wc game
20:22 wizzyre-1       bbl
20:22 cait            you cant lose
20:22 cait            oh
20:22 bgkriegel       mmm, not a gret team (slovakia)
20:21 chris           but i think we will score a goal
20:21 chris           to slovakia
20:21 chris           i suspect we will lose
20:21 chris           yes i think you will too
20:21 chris           greece vs korea is the next match
20:21 bgkriegel       I expect we win
20:20 chris           will you get a draw too? :)
20:20 chris           1-1 sa vs mexico earlier too
20:18 bgkriegel       hi, france 0 - uruguay 0, tomorrow is us (argentina) v nigeria
20:18 cait            :)
20:18 cait            my first ops
20:18 chris           so the more that have ops the better
20:18 chris           its mainly so when we get ppl spamming, or being offensive we can get rid of them
20:18 cait            ooooh
20:17 chris           like that
20:17 chris           probably all the regulars
20:17 cait            who gets ops?
20:17 cait            ah
20:17 chris           so that there is always someone who can do things like that
20:16 chris           one that gives ops to people
20:15 cait            ;)
20:15 cait            what is an oper bot? oper in german means opra, but I dont think its suppposed to sing?
20:05 cait            ah, its better now
20:04 chris           and have an oper bot
20:04 chris           now the server is running ratbox, we can put http://packages.debian.org/stable/net/ratbox-services-common on
20:03 chris           ahh
20:02 cait            bad live stream here :(
20:02 chris           yup
20:01 cait            watching wc?
19:59 chris           hiya cait
19:59 cait            hi chris
19:53 chris           hmm france v uruguay is turning out to be quite tense

17:37 ColinC          mib_k9uxb: the error sounds like what you get if Module::Install is not there. can you build it in a fresh directory
17:33 mib_k9uxb       thank you for your time
17:11 mib_k9uxb       sorry that's /usr/bin/perl  and INSTALLDIRS=site'
17:10 mib_k9uxb       I did a cpan install of Module::Install and then I tried a cpan install of PDF::API2::Simple and it says '/usr/in/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=sit' returned status 512, won't make Running make test  Make had some problems, won't test  Running make install  Make had some problems, won't install
17:07 ColinC          Graphics::Magick should be installed if you install the graphics magick development libraries (i.e. it is not on CPAN)
17:04 mib_k9uxb       trying it now.  thx =)
17:03 ColinC          PDF::API2::Simple requires Module::Install otherwise the build fails at the first command
17:01 mib_k9uxb       I can't seem to install "PDF::API2::Simple" or "Graphics::Magick".  Anyone else having this problem?
17:00 jwagner         The option is still there to select a longer time range, it's just not the default any more.
17:00 jwagner         The complaints I got from several sites were that they run this report every day or several times a day -- they only want to see the current stuff.
16:59 pianohack       But this could be one of those things where I'm really happier not knowing
16:59 pianohack       Didn't quite understand why you wouldn't want to show old or new holds on the holds to pull list
16:58 pianohack       We have too many sysprefs already (I wrote up most of them!)
16:58 pianohack       jwagner_l: I might just leave it as a local patch
16:28 jwagner_l       That's jwagner_lunch -- back in a bit :-)
16:27 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2368 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt, RESOLVED FIXED, Holds to Pull Report filters back 10 years - can it be less
16:27 jwagner         pianohack, if you're talking about the holds to pull list, I did the change that went from 10 years to 2 days -- Bug 2368 .  This might be a candidate for a locally-configurable setting like a syspref?
16:09 pianohack       Works better for us, but I can leave it a local patch if there's a good reason
16:09 pianohack       I'm thinking of submitting our library's change of the pendingreserves.pl default time period from 2daysago-yesterday to 10yearsago-today
16:08 pianohack       Anyway

16:07 * pianohack     smacks the irc server
16:07 * jdavidb       peers quizzically at this being who kinda looks like pianohacker..
16:07 rhcl            Hey pianohacker
16:07 pianohack       wizzyre-1: Yay internet?
16:06 pianohack       Now that I'm up during normal people hours, for some strange reason, I have a Koha question
16:06 pianohack       Hi wizzy, rhcl
15:58 jdavidb         heh.

15:31 jcamins         I decided to just save it. I feel it's an improvement even without pretty-printing. If others disagree, they can always revert my changes.
15:18 jcamins         My regular expression abilities do not extend to pretty-printing SQL.
15:17 jcamins         I'm working on reformatting the SQL Reports page so that everything matches the template... is it okay if I leave one-line SQL statements on just one line?
14:30 jdavidb         :)
14:30 wizzyrea        :)
14:30 wizzyrea        just found out a dear friend is having a baby, so *brilliant*
14:29 jdavidb         doing okay, wizzyrea.  how are you?
14:22 wizzyrea        oh dear

14:21 wizzyrea_       hey :)
14:21 jdavidb         hi, wizzyrea_ ! :D
14:11 kf              bye all
14:11 kf              ok, I dont want to think about this before monday - will go home and watch the game
14:08 kf              so 1.50 is left
14:08 kf              I paid a 4.50 fine, but only 1.50 got paid - it consists of three 1.50 fines, paid again - 1.50 paid
14:07 kf              very strange things happen when I pay my fines
14:04 kf              oh
14:03 kf              positive thinking?
14:02 joetho          but I WILL BE SOON
14:02 joetho          I am not used to the new one yet
14:01 kmkale          kickoff :
13:59 kf              I really liked our old dokuwiki :(
13:59 kf              2nd result in the result list for a search with report
13:59 joetho          but I found it listed in "Tips n Tricks"
13:58 joetho          searching didn't work for me
13:58 joetho          http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/SQL_Reports_Library
13:58 kf              thats what I did yesterday
13:58 kf              search for report
13:54 joetho          listing the function and sql query used
13:53 joetho          the one where users contributed unique reports
13:53 joetho          I can't find the report wiki on the new web site
13:53 joetho          good morning/afternoon/evening/night
13:49 kf              but they set up beamers and screens here and call it 'public viewing'
13:48 kf              i never was at a live game
13:48 kf              yes :)
13:43 jdavidb         I went to my first NBA game about three years ago, kf, and people-watching was the best part.  Watching the fans act goofy was kinda entertaining.
13:43 kmkale          aww I am talking about TV here. thats when you can truly switch off your brain..
13:42 jdavidb         I discovered that baseball is a lot of fun, if the CEO rents out the skybox and provides all the crab, hot dogs, hamburgers, and ice cream you care to eat...  Company parties are a win.
13:42 kf              jdavidb: yes, storylines are the interesting part. and sometimes it's fun to watch with friends in a public place - because of the people there
13:41 kmkale          :))
13:41 jdavidb         I want to go see the DC Rollergirls roller derby some time; it looks like a lot of fun.
13:40 collum          I do follow the Reds and go to a game every other week.  Cincinnati also has a roller derby team, which sounds like fun, but I have not yet attended a match.
13:40 kmkale          i love to watch most sports except stuff like golf
13:35 jdavidb         I can kind-of follow an interesting storyline that crops up occasionally in sports (like the whole Is-Caster-Semenya-a-man-or-a-woman? story recently), but the sport itself is rarely the storyline for me.  I'm ashamed to admit that I followed WCW professional wrestling for a while.  Not for the matches, which were kinda same-ol after a while, but the odd storylines.
13:31 collum          ditto on sports. I was in Kentucky for two months before I figured out that the UK stickers on people's cars meant University of Kentucky and not United Kingdom.
13:30 kmkale          gr8 councellors you got there. here the bar owners just need to take care of the police which they anyway regualrly
13:30 jdavidb         too true, kmkale.  I don't sit and passively watch things much.
13:29 jdavidb         My first hint that the World Cup was coming up was that the DC City Council passed a temporary ordinance to allow bars to be open and serve booze at odd hours, to suit the folks who wanted to watch in sports bars...
13:29 kmkale          jdavidb: thats because you dont like brain switched off kinda actvities
13:28 * jdavidb       is soooo not-a-sports-fan.
13:25 kmkale          messi..
13:25 kf              I hear a lot of people say argentina
13:24 kmkale          :) for me its portugal as there is no chance India will make it in my lifetime
13:23 kf              will not say Germany
13:21 kmkale          a quick poll of WC favourites in #koha?
13:18 kmkale          for us the 1st matches are perfect 7.30pm. second are a bit late 11.50opm
13:17 kf              start time is 4 pm here
13:17 kf              still at work
13:16 kmkale          I am home and in front of TV ;)
13:16 kmkale          so ready for the blast off WC?
13:16 jdavidb         hi, kmkale!  :D
13:15 kmkale          hi chris
13:15 kmkale          hi jdavidb
13:15 kmkale          aahh hi kf
13:15 kf              kmkale: yes, chris wrote something about it on twitter
13:12 kmkale          was there a problem with the irc server earlier today?
13:12 kmkale          good evening
13:00 munin           kf: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Germany is 25.6�C (3:04 PM CEST on June 11, 2010). Conditions: Partly Cloudy. Humidity: 57%. Dew Point: 17.0�C. Pressure: 29.77 in 1008.0 hPa (Steady).
13:00 kf              @wunder konstanz
12:41 si              I'd probably have to buy him lunch instead...
12:40 si              Personally, I quite like having it here - I'd never catch up with Chris or Jo if #koha wasn't here
12:37 si              OTOH, I'm quite happy to continue to host it on ours
12:37 si              I'd be neither offended nor suprised if the koha community decided to move their chat to  one of the big networks
12:35 si              as most of the users are at the other end of the ircd
12:34 si              but that's not a particularly compelling argument for koha to use irc.katipo
12:34 si              as NZ is 150ms from the rest of the Internet
12:34 si              and for us it's been good to have it local to cut down no lag
12:33 si              like, about 15
12:33 si              Katipo has run its own ircd for many years
12:33 si              elwell: no sensible reason
11:55 jwagner         Hi everyone!
11:54 * kf            waves to jdavidb
11:54 kf              yay, irc is back :)
11:54 * jdavidb       waves to kf.
11:51 Elwell          si - reason for locally hosting rather than say pointing dns to freenode or equivalent?
11:51 * jwagner       is bathing in the warm fuzzy environment
11:49 jdavidb         howdy, #koha!

02:33 Mongolia        If you have any advise or suggestion, please, send me to ubplibrary@gmail.com
02:32 Mongolia        English book's MARC file succesfully uploaded to KOHA. Now we are looking information on conversion ANSI MARC file to UNICODE MARC file?
02:30 Mongolia        Hi all, I have ansi MARC file from Softlink Alice software. I uploaded ansi MARC file to KOHA. It worked. Now I have a problem, how we can convert our ANSI MARC file into UNICODE MARC file. Please, any suggesstion? Thank you.
01:26 wasabi          its pretty painless to setup, so i keep using it
01:25 wasabi          ray: ive only really used exim4...
01:17 * munin         reloads and spins the chambers.
01:17 jdavidb         @roulette
01:16 ray             ok
01:16 pianohackr|work I use cronjobs to send emails for overdue and lost items, but not on checkout and checkin
01:15 pianohackr|work ray: I have not tried using the particular feature you're asking about
01:15 ray             pianohackr|work: have you enabled the email message sending feature of koha upon configuring postfix?
00:50 ray             ahm ok.. i'll try
00:48 pianohackr|work You might not have to, though
00:48 pianohackr|work Because of... stuff, with our ISP, I have to use Dyn's Mailhop outbound service
00:48 pianohackr|work I use it for our library
00:48 pianohackr|work Yes
00:48 ray             ahm.. have you used postfix before?
00:47 pianohackr|work ray: Between exim4, nullmailer and postfix? I would much prefer postfix
00:47 pianohackr|work ray: Go to http://webchat.freenode.net/ , enter in your username, then put #ubuntu in the Channels box
00:47 ray             what mail server should i use?
00:46 ray             ok tnx
00:46 pianohackr|work I'm finding a link
00:46 pianohackr|work There are other chat channels, that will be able to help you with this better
00:45 pianohackr|work OK
00:45 ray             i'm using ubuntu desktop stripped down
00:44 ray             ubuntu
00:43 pianohackr|work Are you on debian?
00:43 ray             hmm.. so how can i setup my mail... ok i'll try
00:43 pianohackr|work Not quite as well tested, but many major libraries use it
00:42 pianohackr|work many new features
00:42 pianohackr|work ray: yes, lots
00:42 pianohackr|work mail ray@ray.com
00:42 pianohackr|work For instance, if your email address is ray@ray.com, try the command
00:42 ray             ahm.. is there any difference between the bleeding edge version and the stable version?
00:42 pianohackr|work ray: the first part would be to make it so your koha server can send any emails at all
00:41 pianohackr|work I _think_ it might be in the bleeding edge version, koha 3.2
00:41 ray             I thought it is possible.. I already searched around and saw about nullmailer and cron jobs but i can't figure it out
00:40 pianohackr|work Ah, ok
00:39 ray             the latest version from the community.. 3.00.06
00:39 pianohackr|work ray: not sure, I'm investigating
00:39 pianohackr|work ray: What version of Koha are you running? (More menu at the top, then About Koha)
00:39 ray             ahm... so you are saying that the feature of sending notifications is not included in the installer from the koha community?
00:37 pianohackr|work ray: that was a feature one company announced they were working on; not sure if it ever got submitted
00:37 ray             do you have any idea?
00:37 pianohackr|work ok
00:36 ray             i can't get it? I have a newly installed koha in my server.. what i want is to enable the sending of notifications to the email addresses of patrons when they checked in or checked out books
00:35 pianohackr|work Can you send mails from the server koha is on?
00:35 ray             elow
00:34 pianohackr|work (ray)
00:34 pianohackr|work (ray)
00:34 pianohackr|work Hi, ray
00:34 ray             is there any configuration that i should do to let koha send email messages/notifications?
