17:53.30shanaliso how's linux doing in pakistan with ~3000 users...
17:53.43shanaliany opensource project to check out?
17:54.13tehmaspthats not a really accurate number IMO
17:54.22shanalihmm...
17:54.36shanaliour IT workforce should be more then that right?
17:55.10shanalistudents from LUMS, FAST, SZABIST all must be very well versed with linux...
17:55.21tehmaspyeah, def. , i thought you were talking about only linux users
17:55.55tehmaspwell , i wish they would come to lp.net , because that's not the feeling i get
17:56.23shanaliwell.... but somehow indians are excelling in localizing linux faster then us... by localizing i mean providing linux to masses in their own language...
17:56.38tehmaspyeah, i know what you mean,
17:56.43tehmaspcheck out the bengalis
17:56.55tehmaspthey've done it
17:56.58shanaliwe should have done it earlier then them (bcuz we can always tap on to arabic/persian ports which existed much much earlier then sansikrit)
17:57.09shanaliunfortunate it is...
17:57.28shanalibut then may be we are much ahead in english ;)
17:57.36tehmaspwell , you're not the first to say this, the problem is that no one actually does anything
17:57.53shanalicorrect!
17:58.25shanaliinfact i got stuck with the font... before someone do anything we really need a correct urdu font... (which only lately is made available by FAST i think)
17:58.30u_int32_tjust talk about the problem till some indian does it
17:59.18tehmaspu_int32_t: :)
17:59.51shanaliwell.. i didn't mean to be sarcastic...
18:00.52tehmaspit's not even that, no one really thinks about lp.net as a community, most people just think about it as a place to go to ask questions, that's why it's so difficult to build the culture , out of 3000 users barely anyone comes to lug meetings,
18:01.32shanalisomehow or rather... i don't see much project listings on sourceforge.net by pakistanis... which makes me wonder that we got such a smart brain in computing where are all the hobbyist?
18:01.43tehmaspi don't want to complain really ,cause im miles and miles away, but that's the state of things, there doesn't seem to be enough people who see the potential of what lp.net can be
18:02.07shanalilug meetings should consider throwing free lunch/drinks ;)
18:02.21shanalijust kiddin!
18:02.22tehmaspwhere does the money come from then?
18:02.44tehmaspsee that's the whole thing, what's more impt. the food or learning about linux
18:02.48tehmasp?
18:02.56shanali:) correct
18:03.07shanalii said that to lighten up the mood...

18:04.58fawadnokia 6800 or motorola c650 ?
18:05.02tehmaspwhat service first?
18:05.12fawadam thinking t-mobile.
18:05.30fawadi dont use the phone a lot, and t-mobile is the cheapest.
18:05.36tehmaspyeah, that's what i have, but i thought t-mobile was like exclusive nokia
18:06.56tehmaspok , do you need a phone or a computer, ?
18:07.05nayyaresS^P, you should email Musharaf for including your projects in next financial year budget :)
18:08.12tehmaspcause this 6800 is ridiculous.... isn't t-mobile offering some free phones?
18:08.20S^Pnayyares: hehe i got job now i can manage it alone as it is the one and the only my project :)
18:08.22*** part/#linuxpakistan shanali (~lassipani@singapura.singnet.com.sg)
18:08.56fawadno, there are a bunch of options available on www.letstalk.com

19:22.14u_int32_tfawad, im almost orgasming with subclipse
19:22.24fawadain't it cool?
19:22.46fawadbtw, the 'Pending Changes' panel is synchronized in almost realtime.
19:23.52u_int32_ti have to read the mnaual
19:23.52u_int32_ti want to be able to have quick diffs
19:24.41fawadthis year's april fool's jokes are quite crappy.

19:25.55fawadZeenix: they are?
19:26.12fawadholy crap. they are.
19:28.17u_int32_tfawad, how the hell do you set up quick diff in eclipse
19:29.50fawadi dont know what that is.
19:30.49Zeenixfawad: any criticism pending from your side regarding my yesterday's blog?
19:33.28u_int32_tfawad, would you recommend a staging area for assembling stuff
19:33.56fawadZeenix: nope. i didn't get much of it.
19:34.13fawadu_int32_t: assembling stuff meaning for importing into svn?
19:34.32fawadyeah, that's almost always a good idea.
19:34.38Zeenixfawad: i couldn't make it easier, comrade! :)
19:35.07fawadi must be really dense then, herr Zeenix.
19:35.57u_int32_tfawad, no assembling stuff as in building products
19:36.24u_int32_tfawad, its gonna work like this: I have a core module, and lots of modules that depend on the core
19:36.57u_int32_tim thinking, the build process would check out the core module, build all the object files, check out each module required, build those object files, then link in one big orgy
19:37.27u_int32_tthe more and more i think about it
19:37.30u_int32_tthe  more i think i need scons
19:38.28fawadoh.
19:38.45Zeenixfawad: you might want to follow the blogs of this guy: http://www.advogato.org/person/johnnyb/
19:38.49fawadand by one big orgy, you're talking about static linking among the modules?
19:39.10fawadexcuse me while i go puke.

19:51.08Zeenixfor those interested
19:51.11u_int32_tfawad, why are you puking
19:51.16u_int32_talso fawad yes static linking
19:51.38u_int32_theres a technique for using better lists
19:51.45u_int32_t#include <vector> using std::vector;
19:51.54u_int32_tor
19:52.00u_int32_t#include <list> uisng std::list;
19:52.23u_int32_tno need for ugly void * casts
20:09.49fawadu_int32_t: at the idea of static linking.
20:10.04fawadi am using std::list, thanks you very much.
20:10.06u_int32_tfawad, why
20:10.21fawadmodularity and all.
20:10.29u_int32_twhy would i dynamically link stuff I build myself thats going to be a stand-alone component
20:10.52fawadbut you just said that these are seperate modules.
20:11.38u_int32_tidea is to be able to have a configurable product
20:11.44u_int32_tright now everything is one big blob
20:11.47u_int32_tthat does A B C
20:11.51u_int32_tD E F G H I J K L M N O P
20:12.09u_int32_tso if we want to sell something that just does J K L, i'd have to build and link
20:12.54u_int32_tbuild separately and then link that is
20:12.56fawadright.
20:13.43Zeenixdoes anyone know about a time-accelerator
20:14.04Zeenixi can't wait till monday-tuesday..
20:14.20u_int32_tso fawad i dont think dynamic linking would accomplish that
20:17.37fawadoh.
20:17.47fawadcant you conditionally load libraries?
20:18.05u_int32_tsure
20:18.11fawadZeenix: why? you getting hitched or something?
20:18.11u_int32_tbut if we're selling it just to do J K L
20:18.13S^PZeenix: use sleeping pills :)
20:18.53Zeenixfawad: the movial guys said they'll be contacting me earlier next week
20:19.05Zeenixfawad: so it's damn hard for me to wait for it
20:19.27ZeenixS^P: nice idea but my mother wouldn't let me do such a thing
20:20.06fawadZeenix: watch a chick flick.
20:20.09fawadputs me right to sleep.
20:20.25Zeenixfawad: chick flick?

22:30.22fawadi don't think add existing items is recursive.
22:30.33fawadnor does it give you the kinda filtering eclipse import from filesystem does.
22:30.43u_int32_tfrickin ass
22:31.27fawadyou can, however, drag a directory on a project and have that recursively added.

22:38.04fawadprobably not worth writing a script for.
