Two, unless postgres supports infinitely long varchars, in which case one. =) it does well type text is limited to 2gb er 2tb That's fine. =) Even better! if it's 1 then do simple wizard as it does 1 table Then one page should be fine.

Too old, too new? too new Joy. either they changed the API or have a serious bug one thing that rocks about having 4 different pgsql drivers given the 1.0.12 -> 1.0.13 change is you have 4 different interpretations of the python db api I couldn't imagine them doing a major API chang (rocks like good rock and roll, or rocks like sucks rocks soaked in cow piss?) jamest: yeah, but now 5 :) as apparently they changed their interpretation jbailey: I have the 1.0.12-1 debs at http://www.gnuenterprise.org/~jcater/debian/ this sucks though it sucks the rocks socked in cow piss ooooo this is newer than woody Try three, coming up. piss you using testing/sid in production? this is my workstation. ah The database is on another computer. Be and the other guy running Linux here use sid on our desks, though. EVeryone else will use win32 client or phpforms. Hot damn this does work better. And the whole apps isn't as painfully slow, too.

Action: derek is back (gone 02:01:18) nickr: i went with the kodak.... derek: GAH derek: after my dire warnings? the olympus had sucky interface and felt 'cheap' (with kids thats important issue) the sony was very nice nice interface wife liked it better than kodak interface (though she didnt mind kodak ui) kodak was 50 more BUT it was 4.0 instead of 3.0 megapixels ja and it took compact flash insetead of memorystick yea and the compact flash was WAY cheaper not really much diff really depends on where you buy it i.e. i got the reader and 256mb of flash for cheaper than a 128mb stick nickr: yes long term i agree but again no interest was a factor they have 128mb sticks for $60 at costco here all in all it was up to wife hey derek she liked both the kodak and the sony oh other factor jbailey: they're 0 wide in forms or designer, or both? :) kodak had builtin batteries (with charger) DEsigner. jbailey: object navigator But I can't imagine how I am supposed to grab them and drag them around like this. =) Action: derek also didnt hear your dire warnings you said something about good quality but not great interface jbailey: object nav is in the tools window Action: derek hopes that was only yuck The default width is -5 for these? woo. jbailey: uhh, shouldn't be :) you acn right click on things in tree & edit properties derek: it uses AAs no? nope CRV3 lithium GAH suck gah? suck? There's no 'save' button on the property inspector. Is that expected? jbailey: why woudl there be? if you save the form the property selection you have made will be saved getting something that runs on NiMH AAs is great. You get a gew sets on the cheap and a couple chargers derek: Because when I change the length from -5 to 10 and close the window it doesn't change. So I can only assume there's a missing 'apply' or 'save' button or something. Oh, I see. I had to change 'lenght' & maximum length from -5. jcater: i thought that bug where property navigator didn't work with scrollbars on screen was fixed? :) is it not? worked for me (tm) jcater: doesn't seem to work here (ran setup-cvs.py a few min ago) what is appropriate input mask for date entry? :) Which element contains the gray box width in the background. BUGGER It doesn't seem to support a right-click option. In fact right clicking on the background hangs designer for 10 to 15 seconds. Action: jcater runs screaming into the street! Action: ajmitch feels sorry for bringing up that bug jcater: when did you commit the fix? it's been a few weeks 0 wide? wtf? Hmm, at this speed It hink it will take me 2 hours to correct all of the -5 entries to being a reasoable length. I'll have to do this another time. Oh well. how did you get -5 sizes? That's what the wizard did by default. jbailey: the default size is based upon the size reported by the database how fscking bizarre I'm running the 1.0.8 pyscopg from debian woody I use 1.0.12 and it's fine hang on jbailey: you have a working mysql setup too? so sid's psycopg could be more broken than you think :) as this is not a positive note to end on jamest: No, I was concerned that someone said that some queries would silently break without subselects being available. no, query by detail would break that feature is < 1 week old :) Ah, nice. =) std forms should work fine Perhaps I'll try it with mysql then in a bit.

Action: dneighbo unfortunately moves alot of objects via highlight object then select libraries to copy it to (shift-click/ctrl-click) press button (as there is no Keyboard way to do this smokey no way you cna run vnc on an ipaq how sweet way anyone have vnc tips on this? i found something on keymaps but it left me more confused than anything this sucks dneighbo: what window manager are you using Action: jcater guesses it's the window manager capturing that, not vnc as vnc will pass anything it actually receives e.g., I can't use Alt-Tab or Alt-F4 in KDE fluxbox because KDE interprets those but wont about any window manager grab a ctrl there must be some way to force it to client for the purpose of testing, why don't you start up a raw X session on another terminal with only an xterm i can hit F8 and get a popupp to send ctrl-alt-del thus no window manager and see if it works jcater: if i knew how to do that i would be glad :) hmm kdm gives that as an option :) gdm might too but im a bit afraid to drpo my connection Action: jcater is thinking as getting back on can be a bitch i have found way to do keymaps and such but its horridly ugly http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/xvncviewer.html i guess at this point i dont have much choice as to do work i have to have this dneighbo: Ctrl+alt+F1 to a console login then login then xinit -- :1 should bring up a window-managerless session then try xvncviewer btw, if this works, then this tells us the problem That's a frightening amount of work. =) and we can find a cleaner solution :) jbailey: I'm just trying to verify the problem feel free to correct me if you already know the answer :) At no time did I suggest it was the wrong way to troubleshoot it. It's just frightening. =) lol mdean (~mdean@mkc-65-28-72-76.kc.rr.com) joined #gnuenterprise. that's like me trying to show someone today how to add a scsi driver to an initrd when you're installing a system. ouch hmmm I wonder if I should've told him how to close this window-managerless session? no xterem in PATH bah speicfy a program on the command line or make sure that /usr/X11R6/bin is in your path try xinit gterm -- :1 is that right? gnome-terminal everyone should have xterm installed :) dneighbo: you catch that not gterm jamest (~jamest@adsl-64-216-107-182.dsl.tpkaks.swbell.net) left #gnuenterprise. but gnome-terminal dude' apt-get install xterm you are a very high maintenance friend Action: dneighbo wishes to please jcater ;) lol :) fsck sorry cant do that ah, I thought this machine wasn't connected to net no net when dialed up and passing gnome-terminal yells at me still no xterm installed :) bugger not net at all im going to disconnect and install xterm i guess or just no internet? hmmm if you tell me how to 'route' i can get net as it looks as though i have internal network Action: dneighbo gets deb and scps hmmm maybe the .deb will fit on a floppy figures this box has xterm already :) I don't have the energy to route for you crap cleaned cache here of course, real men use konsole wil have to remove and reinstall can't you do a -d jbailey (~jbailey@65.48.140.35) left irc: "Client Exiting" ? maybe i dont know what a -d does :) -d == --download-only I dunno you know more about apt than I if this doesn't work, you might wanna try svncviewer instead of xvncviewer I've personally never used it sigh I'd rather be GNUe'n oooo that that'd be a good bumper sticker Action: drochaid is away: mar sin leibh an drasda ooooo how about "My PC is a piece of junk too" works fine in xinit that would be an excellect bumpersticker jcater this may sound demented but that might work for me oidche mhath doods i.e. generally the computer is about useless w/o net :) drochaid: um, ok so when connected to work not having a windows manager doesnt kill me Action: dneighbo would love a real solution, but for tongiht this might fly ok dneighbo: vnc on an ipaq? oh .. that's fun dneighbo: good, because I don't yet have a real solution jcater: i want to be gnue'ing so bad it hurts rdean (~rdean@12-221-229-247.client.insightBB.com) joined #gnuenterprise. but i have to get this done first, so you saved my butt :) dneighbo: d00d! you get my email aboot 0.9? um havent gotten email today oh - oops im afraid to use this machine for email as its sylpheed which stunk for imap until i get all my goodies moved over really? i will go check squirrel mail that's all I use with sylpheed Mr_You (~car@gso167-138-145.triad.rr.com) joined #gnuenterprise. jcater: it was horrid for moving mail very slow and buggy :( i LOVED it for popmail Maniac (~User@h24-82-132-209.wp.shawcable.net) joined #gnuenterprise. knock on wood, evolution has been amazingly solid I guess I've just gotten used to the slowness what do you use? 6 months ago i would have kicked someone that suggested using evolution but it actually is pretty responsive and solid Action: jcater may try it noting liek the pre 1.0 stuff as my users are bitching about "generic" software now s/now/again with the next release of OpenOffice jcater: definitely try it my wife hated everything prior to installing email wise and wanted outlook I'm going to grab sources for openoffice thats what made me install evolution and change the window title and the splash and she never called for support to read :OpenOffice Professional/Corporate Edition" so i figured it was worth me trying again :) jcater: silly rabbit I'm dead serious I couldn't get them to use OpenOffice until I changed the icon names :Microsoft Windows Longlorn/Special Corporate Beta 4 to "Word" and "Excel" then they started using it but complained that it was the generic version and "kmail" is the generic version of outlook express Action: jcater has never before heard software described as "generic" what kind of resources does evolution pull? as we're talking more than one user :) Action: jcater wishes the kompany was still working on aethera evolution is a fat pig as it has the same interface as evolution but with the KDE widget set jcater: the kompany is evil maybe I suppose they are KDE's version of Ximian hmm, wrose I would say although I like the kompany better than ximian I don't think so cause they develop a LOT of prop. stuff at least they are always honest about what they're doing I dunno evil is evil ;) anyway, even the KDE developers can't stand the kompanyt jcater: im with chilly on this onnly because to me KDE is like Caldera its not that they are doing prop development its the attitude Action: dneighbo speaks only CEO to CEO not the developers working for Kompany you mean the Kompany is like Caldera ;) Action: dneighbo isnt thrilled always with Ximian and what it does, but the leaders there arent quiet as nose up turned to the community it sucks as they actually do some cool stuff agreed if the attitude were better they would likely do better (even with prop stuff) Ransom Love and Shawn Gordon could be best buddies ;) maybe they are same person? Action: chillywilly hears the x-files theme a conspiracy?!? fsck csi miami thanks chilly for what? hmmm I may put my users on evolution ;) ugh but I've gotten so used to the slimmed down sylpheed I don't know if I can deal with evolution myself you can't it SUCKS it is almost as bad as outlook that's a good reason to put my users on it in fact i think they were trying to emulate outlook's bloatedness as I've had them cry over losing outlook and that's not an exageration how does anyone tolerate it? hell I've seen my buddy have it lock up a thousand times ona 1GHz laptop i kind of like it I had withdrawal when dropping Outlook but I've grown to like slimmed down email (btw, this is Outlook, not Express) Action: chillywilly uses mutt does evolution support LDAP? if so, that's probably the selling point dunno I tried using evolution for a while about a few weeks ago I hate it hmmm dneighbo: you use the calendar stuff? i looked into it im about to try at home i think though i need something i can use when im at work too Action: dneighbo might have to use phpgw wife and i need way to be in sync hmmm if you slow down, it might help or try other positions rofl oh, with calendars doh! what about GNUe Groupware eh? ;) dsmith (~dsmith@p165.n-chpop06.stsn.com) left irc: Read error: 110 (Connection timed out) SachaS (~Sacha@dialup-196-113.wasp.net.au) joined #gnuenterprise.
