05:39.52lXlIs anyone familiar with Samba?
05:42.22seebsAssuming you mean the Windows-filesystem-sharing thing...
05:42.27lXlUnfortunately
05:42.39seebsFamiliar enough that I bought an OS X server so I wouldn't ever have to manually configure it again.
05:42.40lXlCan't figure out what "realm = " is suppose to refer to in the config
05:42.53lXlEvyerhing on the internet says like "samba.example.com"
05:42.55seebsshotgun shell loaded with bacon
05:42.55seebsdeterrent y/n
05:43.13seebsI am not sure, but I think that might be the thing that's the "workgroup name" or something.  Or maybe not.
05:43.18seebsI don't really understand it.
05:43.28lXlIDK something as common as Samba should run on an OS as common as Ubuntu 11.10
05:43.40lXlDon't understand how it is erroring out so bad no matter what I do
05:45.44seebsConfiguring it sucks.
05:46.01seebsI did it once about 5-6 years ago, I think.  With marginal success.
05:50.40lXlPlain Ubuntu handles this fine but I'm running server and it just craps out everywhere it can
06:06.18lXlGreat, guess samba 4 is just plain broken or something
06:08.22lXlYay
06:08.28lXlGot it going with old school samba

06:16.58lXlHAH
06:17.00lXlHell yeah
06:17.20lXlManaged to get this linked where Rift is pulling the addon from a linux box :D
06:18.08lXlQuestion: Can you reload to update UI code in game?
06:18.16lXlLike people did with WoW /reloadui
06:39.03ZorbaBetayeah, /reloadui :V
06:39.18lXlHmm, not sure if addon is actually loading
06:39.40lXlprint("SDA") should print when the ui reloads right?
06:42.54lXlAh there it goes
06:44.49lXlHAH sweet
06:45.10lXlYeah, you can link an addon folder to a networked drive :D
07:34.28seebsHuh.
07:34.49seebsI wonder whether the trick I used in WoW, of symlinking per-account directories to each other, would work.
07:56.25lXlLinking what to each other?
07:56.41lXlI think this is symbolic link to the drive.. /D?
08:12.24lXlI really need 3 monitors :\
08:18.32lXlSo, this is loading the code weird
08:18.35lXlhttp://wiki.riftui.com/Frames
08:19.10lXlI used the example code but used testFrame instead of sample, but overlooked changing the sample: sections, fixed it but /reloadui still throws errors that it can't find 'sample' though it's no longer referenced in code.
08:19.11lXl???
08:20.43lXlAnd making other changes like in a print() line is no longer reflected, the code is stuck in the state it errored out in
08:22.40lXlReproduced
08:24.37lXlBah, but it works when it is set to a local file :(
08:24.49lXlGuess Rift doesn't play nice with linking
08:36.38lXlMounting from Linux to the Windows folder works :)
08:36.58lXlI'm too much of a curious carl
09:09.53lXlSo, can't figure out what I'm suppose to do with like "a0000000421AECA5"
09:12.47starlonWhat if 1% of Trion's success went to feed the hungry as public royalties on the use of the value of PI? What if some greedy bastard owned the rights to PI?
09:12.56lXl?
09:13.13ZorbaBeta|x|, feed it into inspect.ability.detail(), assuming you want more information on what it is. it's a unique opaque key for an ability.
09:17.45lXlWhat about the dump from Ability.Cooldown.Begin?
09:18.23ZorbaBetait tells you which ability IDs are now on cooldown. Most likely, if you're writing an addon that deals with cooldowns, you'd have a lookup table of ability IDs you care about
09:18.53lXlYeah
09:19.13lXlTrying to just figure out what outputs what
09:28.23lXlGot it :)

09:32.11*** mode/#riftuidev [+o Cairenn] by ChanServ
09:32.47lXlIs there a way to know if an ability came off of GCD or would we have to tag begin/end?
09:47.15starlonlXl: If it has a cooldown outside of the gcd itself, then there's no way to tell if you're on a gcd or on a ability cooldown timer.
09:50.18starlonDunno if it'll help, but I did play around with cooldowns to track down how fast you respond to cooldown expiration. The gcd kills it. http://www.riftui.com/downloads/info163-RotLatency.html
09:55.12lXlVim is automatically putting end at the end of statements :(
09:55.35lXlWell the ability is apparently not considered a cooldown because it's ICD
10:27.53lXlWhat is the buff id?
10:28.58lXlSome buffs have "ability" others dont and they all have id which seems random
10:29.28starlonI'm not sure about bufffs.
10:29.39lXlI could go off of name..
10:29.52starlonI think I wrote a LibScriptable plugin for it. :\ Beats me how to use it. lol
10:33.18starlonhmm there are buff events huh
10:33.27starlonthis plugin uses no events
10:33.33starlonthe Unit plugin does.
10:34.02lXlYeah
10:34.15starlonIt turns all the Inspect.Unit.Detail(unit).name thing to just UnitName(unit)
10:34.27lXlI got this so far to recognize when a specific buff is executed
10:34.37starlonah
10:34.47starloncool :)
10:35.07lXlIt's 4:30am and logic evades my basic understanding of tables
10:35.31starlonturn them over I say -- all of them, every single one
10:35.32lXlBut I have output of
10:35.32lXlremaining (number)
10:35.32lXlname (name)
10:35.47starlonhmm
10:35.48lXlThis is ridiculously messy
10:36.53starlonThe API?
10:36.56lXlMy code
10:38.15starlonoh :)
10:40.07lXlHere we go
10:40.08lXlv.
10:40.09lXlhttp://173.172.35.32/ui/main.txt
10:40.33lXlThat should update as I update code
10:40.56lXlYep.. lol I love you Linux
10:50.40starlonTrick with LibVisual. Type: /script LibStub("LibScriptableCoreLite-1.0"):New(_G, "MyScriptEnvironment"); -- You'll have the entire LibScriptable plugin library available globally. So just use UnitName(unit) for name, or any other unit informationi. You have text formatting tools like time formatting and large numbers. There's a bunch of color and blending functions. You have UnitDPS(unit) as well. And SimpleMeter(unit, mode, expand) for tapping into
10:51.42starlonWhere there's a Linux there's a way.
10:53.22starlonegads, Lua just hurt my eyes. That's not an offense. I mean wow, Lua is ugly code after stairing at C for weeks. :\
10:53.29lXlHah
10:53.39lXlI've been staring at JS
10:53.45starlon:)
10:53.49starlonI fail at php
10:54.16starlonran into an issue tonight that had my link menu all messed up.
11:03.39lXlSweet
11:06.10lXlWow yeah this makes working with this stuff very easy
11:07.07lXlhttp://173.172.35.32/ui/main.txt
11:07.20lXlClose enough
11:13.47lXlIn StarTip, how was this handling multiple files?
11:13.53lXlLike, calling code from another file
11:25.49lXlInspect.Time.Frame/Real ?

14:07.31starlonI always meant to do _G.LibScriptable = LibStub("LibScriptable-1.0")
14:09.53starlonlXl: What do you mean by calling code from another file?
14:10.12starlonThere's _G.StarTip
14:10.49starlonYou can get to the modules with _G.StarTip:GetModule("Animation")
14:11.14starlonIt's using Dongle for modular design.
14:11.30starlonSo you can create profiles for your profiles.
14:11.33starlonhehe
14:12.03starlonDongle impelements saved var profiles.
14:13.21starlonAlthough Ace3's is a bit nicer I think.
14:14.35starlonSo you can have different tooltips for different toons.
14:16.02starlonYou know what I like about rift? I'm not tied down to the name of the addon's directory.

20:00.13lXlFigured it out
21:11.28lXlHave a function create a frame, later inject into that function to modify an attribute?
22:29.05lXlWell getting close to having a timer

23:32.46lXlThing that sucks with coding, you start debugging, then you debug your debug, and you forget what you were even working on
23:39.12Cairennhehehe
23:39.29lXlhttp://173.172.35.32/ui/ You can laugh at my god awful coding lol
23:39.54lXlI'm sure there is a much better way of doing.. well any of this, but I'm poking around
23:41.42lXlI'm guessing it would be right to make or otherwise have code build a table of the spells I want to track then use that elsewhere
