01:07:55 <Nerd42> hey
01:08:04 <Nerd42> any VLC media player fans in the house?
01:08:14 <OliverK> yeah
01:09:45 <Nerd42> know how to get the playlist to behave?
01:09:53 <Nerd42> i'm trying ot rearrange items on it
01:09:55 <Nerd42> it wont let me
01:10:01 <Nerd42> you can drag them, but it has no effet
01:10:03 <Nerd42> *effect
01:10:09 <Nerd42> Most annoying
01:10:19 <Nerd42> almost enough to make me switch back to WinAmp as primary media player
01:10:42 <OliverK> you should be able to do a right clkick on what you want to arrange
01:10:52 <OliverK> theres also a portable version of winamp in the froums
01:10:57 <OliverK> i'm sure they'd love tesers
01:11:00 <OliverK> tester*
01:11:56 <Nerd42> right click brings up a context menu
01:12:05 <Nerd42> which doesn't even have "Move up" and "Move down" which is retarded
01:13:17 <OliverK> hmm

02:51:21 <sko> hey there...i'm just wondering if installing the p. apps suite will delete/overwrite the data already on my sd and usb drives. do I need to back up that data first? thanks!
02:51:34 <ChrisMorgan> sko: no, it won't
02:51:44 *** JoeYoung (n=Joe@c-98-200-24-14.hsd1.tx.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps
02:51:44 <sko> much appreciated! thanks a ton.
02:51:46 <ChrisMorgan> Other than the autorun.inf file which is autorun informatino
02:51:55 <sko> that's fine...
02:51:58 <ChrisMorgan> Which won't be there unless you've had some other thing to do it
02:51:59 <ChrisMorgan> ya
02:52:09 <sko> have a good one...
02:52:20 <ChrisMorgan> It'll create StartPortableApps.exe in the root, and a Documents folder and a PortableApps folder
02:52:25 <ChrisMorgan> :-)
02:52:31 <sko> ty :)
02:53:09 <sko> oh...one last question. :) i downloaded the latest beta and it's only 1.5MB's. Obviously, that doesn't install the entire suite, right?
02:53:17 <ChrisMorgan> No, that's just the platform.
02:53:26 <sko> do i need to d/load the suite first, then update?
02:53:39 <ChrisMorgan> If you want applications, you'll need to download the suite or the individual apps
02:53:49 <ChrisMorgan> Currently there's no core updater in it.
02:53:54 <ChrisMorgan> Next release there will be though.
02:54:04 <sko> ok...obviously I'm a noob to p. apps suite so I appreciate the help!
02:54:23 <ChrisMorgan> Sift through http://portableapps.com/apps and download and install what you like :-)
02:54:41 <sko> got it! thanks again. I'm done now. :) goodnight.
02:54:51 <ChrisMorgan> Good afternoon from me :D
02:55:06 <sko> :) good day. how about that?!
02:55:13 <ChrisMorgan> Bye :-)

03:00:48 *** Justin___ (i=ac821cee@gateway/web/freenode/x-45d5e74142418fbb) has joined #portableapps
03:01:27 <Justin___> Hello
03:01:39 <ChrisMorgan> Hello Justin___! Can we help you with anything?
03:02:10 <Justin___> Yes, I am having trouble downloading your software suites.
03:02:21 <ChrisMorgan> What seems to be the problem with it?
03:02:34 <Justin___> I get to a period of 95 percent and everything stops.
03:02:44 <ChrisMorgan> Is this with downloading or installing?
03:02:51 <Justin___> Downloading
03:02:56 <Justin___> I am on dial up
03:03:01 <ChrisMorgan> Uh oh...
03:03:03 <Justin___> I use Download manager
03:03:22 <ChrisMorgan> Are you downloading just the Platform base, or one of the suites?
03:03:41 <Justin___> Even in browsers after a period of time I can't seem to download your software, the 125MB download
03:03:53 <Justin___> I tried the middle sized one today about 40 some megs
03:03:58 <Justin___> it also had the same problem
03:04:09 <ChrisMorgan> Dialup can have problems with those sorts of things.
03:04:11 <ChrisMorgan> They're big.
03:04:20 <Justin___> I download thousand meg files on my dial up
03:04:25 <Justin___> but they take about a week
03:04:35 <Justin___> your download takes about 14 hours
03:04:41 <xangua> :S
03:04:42 <Justin___> and I can't resume them
03:05:05 <ChrisMorgan> That'll be an issue with the download manager. Our downloads are hosted with SourceForge, and they support resuming.
03:05:37 <Justin___> Then why do they not resume?
03:05:38 <Justin___> http://softlayer.dl.sourceforge.net/project/portableapps/PortableApps.com%20Suite/PortableApps.com%20Suite%201.5.2/PortableApps.com_Suite_Setup_1.5.2_en.exe
03:05:38 <Justin___> that is the path I was given on me download manager
03:05:50 <ChrisMorgan> It supports resume.
03:06:08 <Justin___> I have the file downloaded to 99%
03:06:12 <Justin___> and it stopped
03:06:24 <Justin___> I am missing the last megabyte
03:06:31 <ChrisMorgan> I just tested that file, it supports resuming.
03:07:05 <Justin___> Is it possible the file is damaged at the last 1 megabyte
03:07:14 <ChrisMorgan> No.
03:07:20 <ChrisMorgan> It'll be fine.
03:07:31 <ChrisMorgan> Dialup connections can be pretty bad though :-(
03:07:47 <Justin___> I download knoppix successfully every few months
03:07:52 <Justin___> and its 600 some megs
03:07:52 <ChrisMorgan> You could try a different SourceForge mirror
03:08:19 <Justin___> do you have a mirror that is up and running?
03:08:26 <Justin___> I could use an FTP site
03:08:29 <Justin___> more sucessfully
03:08:39 <ChrisMorgan> Just go to the download page, click on it and change the mirror.
03:08:43 <ChrisMorgan> SourceForge mirror, that is
03:09:00 <ChrisMorgan> When you click on "Download" you get to a SourceForge. Click "choose a different mirror".
03:09:12 <Justin___> What mirror then should I select
03:09:19 <ChrisMorgan> Any will do.
03:09:27 <ChrisMorgan> softlayer should do just fine, but try a different one.
03:09:45 <ChrisMorgan> But I can assure you that all SourceForge mirrors support resuming. That's one of the prerequisites to /being/ a SourceForge mirror.
03:09:50 <Gizmokid2005> ever since voxel disappeared I found SoftLayer to be the fastest most reliable mirror.
03:10:01 <Justin___> I will try this, but can I replace the original source with the new layer
03:10:06 <Justin___> and resume the file
03:10:16 <ChrisMorgan> I doubt that your download manager supports that.
03:10:21 <ChrisMorgan> I'm not aware of any that do
03:10:25 <Justin___> It lets me manually add a source
03:10:32 <ChrisMorgan> (softlayer is definitely a reputable one)
03:10:33 <Justin___> under properties
03:10:38 <ChrisMorgan> You can try it if you like
03:10:46 <ChrisMorgan> No harm in trying :-)
03:11:08 <Justin___> for people with dial up
03:11:11 <Justin___> Does your company sell the software downloaded onto a cd?
03:11:20 <ChrisMorgan> Not at the moment.
03:11:45 <ChrisMorgan> Hardware partnerships are just about to start though (within the next few weeks). We're just sorting out the final issues with it.
03:11:59 <Justin___> I don't have many friends that have Internet where I live, if you ever were to add a minimal fee for producing a disk I would like to know.
03:12:07 <ChrisMorgan> Then you'd be able to buy a USB disk with our software on... and I believe that CD distribution is also in the plan.
03:12:32 *** xangua has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
03:13:03 <Justin___> Thanks for your information, I was not happy about not having an email contact easily found to contact you with
03:13:06 *** Res2216firestar has quit ("Leaving")
03:13:22 <ChrisMorgan> You'll find that in here you're much more likely to get support than by email.
03:14:05 <ChrisMorgan> Email is currently just handled by the head guy (who's the only one who's really PortableApps.com staff) and he's really busy with various things and doesn't respond to email much at all.
03:14:11 <Justin___> Why do you use IRC instead of email support?
03:14:22 <Chazz> IRC is real time too. :)
03:14:27 <ChrisMorgan> Here also it's a conversation where you can discuss things, ask questions, etc. in real time
03:14:30 <ChrisMorgan> As Chazz says
03:14:55 <ChrisMorgan> With IRC we're a community. Email would work much less so
03:15:18 <Justin___> So your online 24/7
03:15:19 <Gizmokid2005> OH btw Justin___ you'd have to be more/less blind to not see the email contact on our site (No offense).
03:15:37 <Gizmokid2005> There's the "Contact Us" link on the top of EVERY page
03:15:46 <Gizmokid2005> that takes you to a list of way to contact PortableApps.com
03:15:48 <Justin___> LOL, yea thanks but I can see quite clearly lol.
03:15:55 <Gizmokid2005> plus the forums, and of course, here.
03:15:56 <ChrisMorgan> This room always has someone in it. They may or may not be able to help you though.
03:16:03 <ChrisMorgan> When I'm in I'm in.
03:16:10 <Gizmokid2005> Justin___: http://portableapps.com/about/contact
03:16:16 <Justin___> I see
03:16:33 <ChrisMorgan> I like to be here whenever I'm on my computer, and Gizmokid2005 does too. When we're in you can get support. Lots of others will also help.
03:16:33 <Justin___> I did that, but I also noticed it said no email support was available
03:16:34 <Gizmokid2005> there's not ALWAYS someone around, there might be people here, but it doesn't mean they're active.
03:17:04 <Justin___> :) sleeping I get it
03:17:06 <Gizmokid2005> as always Justin___, the forums are available
03:17:18 <Gizmokid2005> and chances are you WILL get a response within 12-24 hours.
03:17:24 <Gizmokid2005> I haven't seen many instances where that isn't the case.
03:17:38 <ChrisMorgan> Yep
03:18:13 <Justin___> So do you guys work free online to represent Portableapps?
03:18:20 <ChrisMorgan> Yep
03:18:33 <Gizmokid2005> Justin___: PortableApps isn't /really/ a company in the normal sense of one
03:18:40 <Justin___> I also heard someone is offering COZY
03:18:43 <Gizmokid2005> it's more a collaboration of people and FOSS ideas.
03:18:54 <ChrisMorgan> It's a product of Rare Ideas, LLC, which is a company...
03:19:04 <Justin___> sounds interesting
03:19:18 <Gizmokid2005> ChrisMorgan: the normal sense of a company is one who is for profit, which doesn't really accurately represent PortableApps.com
03:19:37 <Gizmokid2005> the idealogies of the two are different :)
03:19:52 <Justin___> so will this software remain free forever?
03:20:36 <Chazz> yup
03:20:38 <Justin___> I tried to resume that download it said connection with server was lost, what would cause that, that was with softlayer
03:21:42 <Justin___> Is there any site I can direct connect to like Ibiblio.org or something with an FTP to download your files?
03:21:48 <ChrisMorgan> No
03:22:12 <Justin___> why is that?
03:22:23 <ChrisMorgan> Because SourceForge doesn't have any FTP mirrors
03:23:09 <Justin___> But they are offered free at universities to offer free open source software, and your software is free, does it not meet the same requisites?
03:23:32 <ChrisMorgan> We use SourceForge for distributing our files
03:23:45 <ChrisMorgan> And our project as a whole
03:24:01 <Justin___> ftp://csociety-ftp.ecn.purdue.edu I use them quite often
03:24:24 <ChrisMorgan> We don't have any intention of supporting other distribution means, at the moment at least.
03:24:48 <Justin___> Would it be legal to have someone download your files and host them on larger ftp site?
03:25:06 <ChrisMorgan> Though we are heading towards diversifying distribution techniques and allowing the software creators to host the portable versions, making PortableApps.com the hub rather than the location (if that makes sense)
03:25:06 <Gizmokid2005> right now Justin___ like ChrisMorgan said, we use SourceForge as our host as they support the features/distribution methods we ened.
03:25:29 <Gizmokid2005> Justin___: keeping our hosting to our own methods decreases the possibility for file poisoning.
03:25:42 <ChrisMorgan> It wouldn't be illegal but we don't like it (they would then miss our statistics and they tend to be even less likely to keep up to date)
03:26:05 <Justin___> Isn't that why they add CRC headers to the files?
03:26:34 <ChrisMorgan> But you could have a different, bad file with the same name and people might not notice it wasn't the real thing until it was too late...
03:26:36 <Gizmokid2005> Justin___: It is, but all that can be spoofed, but that's not the point
03:26:40 <ChrisMorgan> That's the point
03:26:44 <Justin___> if you change any file or size the CRC breaks compliance of the originating file txt size
03:27:04 <Justin___> I see
03:27:11 <Gizmokid2005> Justin___: right, but if you download it and change what you want, generate a new CRC, change the name to be identical, voila, poisoned.
03:27:48 <Justin___> I see but you could host the CRC of the original file for people to see, but I understand the problem
03:27:53 <Gizmokid2005> I personally can't think of more than half a dozen people who would even think to compare an MD5 or SHA hash.
03:28:07 <ChrisMorgan> No-one bothers with such checks because it's not necessary.
03:28:15 <Gizmokid2005> most people won't care enough, or take enough time to make that extra check
03:28:21 <Gizmokid2005> they just rely on the software to be what it is and clean
03:28:26 <Gizmokid2005> which is why we do our hosting ourselves
03:28:26 <ChrisMorgan> And also if they're downloading from somewhere else they're unlikely to see our checksums.
03:28:38 <Justin___> :) well I was one who does that lol.
03:29:20 <Justin___> Yea I can imagine, but couldnt the EXE contain a check verifier?
03:29:34 <ChrisMorgan> But if they just replace it with a different executable?
03:29:35 <Justin___> against a server stored hash
03:29:44 <ChrisMorgan> A virus for example?
03:29:55 <Justin___> okay :)
03:30:05 <Justin___> Was something I was wondering about for a whil
03:30:38 <Justin___> I have one other question
03:31:06 <ChrisMorgan> ... but we're not here all the time. Bye, lunch time for me.
03:31:08 *** ChrisMorgan is now known as ChrisMorgan|Away
03:31:08 <Justin___> Does your software store registry data from a thumbstick, and if it doesnt how does it do this?
03:31:20 <Gizmokid2005> what do you mean Justin___?
03:32:03 <Justin___> Your data programs they don't add registry keys correct? when installed to a thumbstick?
03:32:13 <Gizmokid2005> That's not /entirely/ correct Justin___
03:32:39 <Justin___> please explain
03:32:43 <Gizmokid2005> if the software requires registry keys, we'll backup any keys that match what's required, and then backup the keys our apps use (or delete them as appropriate) and restore the original keys
03:32:58 <Gizmokid2005> they may USE the registry, but they clean up after themselves.
03:33:07 *** NiveusLuna is now known as Niv[AFK]
03:33:21 <Justin___> how does that not corrupt a registry within windows when the thumbdrive is removed?
03:33:28 <Gizmokid2005> why would it Justin___?
03:33:37 <Gizmokid2005> it's all handled at the launch and close of the application
03:33:47 <Gizmokid2005> the <Appname>Portable.exe launcher handles all that work.
03:33:55 <Justin___> Like TSR's?
03:34:03 <Gizmokid2005> TSR?
03:34:21 <Justin___> Is it possible to run your program from a sandboxed environment?
03:34:26 <Gizmokid2005> yes
03:34:41 <Justin___> does it work with WINE?
03:34:48 <Gizmokid2005> Most apps do perfectly fine.
03:35:23 <Justin___> Do you offer your application in Linux SUSE form? to compile and execute?
03:36:03 <Gizmokid2005> Justin___: all of our apps are Windows only apps
03:36:17 <Justin___> Why is that?
03:36:29 <Gizmokid2005> that's just how it works right now
03:36:49 <Justin___> Is there no intention of porting it to Linux?>
03:36:58 <Gizmokid2005> a lot of the apps are windows only
03:37:03 <Gizmokid2005> are supported on linux with WINE
03:37:12 <Gizmokid2005> and it's a lot more of an undertaking than one would imagine.
03:37:35 <Justin___> I don't like emulationware wanted something more permanent for Linux to use with keydrives
03:38:17 <Justin___> I am still having trouble downloading your files for windows use, maybe I should restart the download again from 0.
03:40:24 <Justin___> Thank you for all your time. you have answered most of my questions at this point in time.
03:40:34 <Gizmokid2005> you're welcome Justin___

05:20:02 <portappsnewb> is anyone a developer?
05:20:13 <ChrisMorgan> Yep
05:21:27 <portappsnewb> hi, i was interested in using portableapps on a flash drive that i sell, what is process to get permission? it is a small project
05:22:13 <ChrisMorgan> http://portableapps.com/about/contact#business is the address to deal with at the moment.
05:22:38 <ChrisMorgan> If you are not modifying it at all, you can distribute it as it is at the moment.
05:23:10 <ChrisMorgan> Due to trademark licensing restrictions, you may not insert anything into the Data folder of the Mozilla applications (Firefox, Thunderbird and Sunbird)
05:23:12 <portappsnewb> I emailed a couple of months ago, but didn't get any response, I'll send it off again, are allowing anything like that? it is a small project for students
05:23:56 <ChrisMorgan> If you do want to modify anything, I'd say just wait for a couple of weeks and then come back; the mechanisms should be sorted out properly by then.
05:24:00 <portappsnewb> what about preinstalling the applications? like open office?
05:24:10 <ChrisMorgan> That's fine.
05:24:59 <ChrisMorgan> Just don't put any data in Mozilla applications. I don't believe any restrictions have been forced with the OpenOffice.org trademarks.
05:25:59 <portappsnewb> thanks Chris :) i think that is all I needed :) Are you one of the owners? or a programmer?
05:26:11 <ChrisMorgan> I'm a developer here.
05:26:24 <ChrisMorgan> And moderator
05:26:38 <ChrisMorgan> John T. Haller is the only owner/real staff member at the moment.
05:26:53 <ChrisMorgan> Which is also why you're unlikely to get a quick response from the business address.

06:11:45 <ChrisMorgan> jQuery is 2KB smaller with it, jQuery UI is 20KB smaller, Ext JS is 15KB smaller...

16:07:26 <ChibiTomo> Hi. Got a little question. I noticed lately that the portableapps suite on my usb stick sometimes wants to connect to the internet when I update/install a new app. Is this normal? Or would this be causes by something else on the stick & not the suite itself? Nothing on it besides some ;paf's & other portable exe's. It happened just now when updating portable firefox to 3.5.5. ith destination...
16:07:28 <ChibiTomo> ...IP 149.5.128.174 port 80. Probably me being paranoid but wanted to be sure...
16:08:46 <ChibiTomo> bbl. thanks in advance for a reply ;)
16:09:07 <vatts> ChibiTomo, if firefox needs to update itself it needs to downloads updates from somewhere, eh?!
16:09:22 <vatts> so basically... relax
16:09:28 <vatts> you just caught firefox update :p
16:10:00 <Gizmokid2005> No actually
16:10:10 <Gizmokid2005> ChibiTomo: you have some kind of Comodo A/V. That's one of their server.
16:10:16 <Gizmokid2005> *servers.
16:10:21 <Gizmokid2005> so it's nothing to do with our software
16:13:01 <ChibiTomo> Indeed. I'm using comodo firewall. thanks for the fast reply. Couldn't find much info from a whois. anyway, question solved thanks again & have a nice day ^^
16:13:27 <Gizmokid2005> ChibiTomo: just use a traceroute :)
16:13:41 <Gizmokid2005> another good site to track that is http://centralops.net
16:13:48 <Gizmokid2005> just use the domain dossier :)
