03:46 | mtj | just enuff to choose 'all' :) |
03:46 | 1, all, yes ... | |
03:46 | Brooke_ | yeah, that won't do it, unfortunately... |
03:47 | you'd think that buying Linux its own drive to play on would have made life easier | |
03:47 | but nooooooo | |
03:47 | * Brooke_ | lets loose some naval class swears *again* |
03:48 | mtj | heh, ive been dropping the f-bomb recently too |
03:48 | * Brooke_ | titters at mj's idea of naval class swearing. |
03:49 | mtj | feels pretty good, i gotta say.. |

08:19 | magnuse | thanks, cool! floss ftw! ;-) |
08:21 | kf | :) |
08:21 | talking about 3.0.5? | |
08:21 | hi rangi | |
08:21 | magnuse | or 3.2.5 ;-) |
08:21 | kf | oh right |
08:23 | magnuse | and it was reported by someone in france, fixed by someone in the us and double checked by someone in nz? |
08:25 | rangi | Pretty much yep |
08:27 | kf | :) |
08:28 | is there a way to check for other problems like that? | |
08:32 | magnuse | and it's cool that the problem was discovered not because someone took advantage of a vulnerability, but because someone was able to inspect the source code |
08:35 | rangi | We went on a hunt a while back that one must have snuck in |
08:36 | Its always worth making sure placeholders are used | |
08:37 | Anytime you are editing a file its worth checking | |
08:37 | * magnuse | wonders how hard it would be to write a script that would look for variable interpolation in SQL statements... probably non-trivial... |

09:19 | * thd | 's father had been head of design and safety of dams in California. |
09:19 | rangi | having said that, i did make sure all our water bottles are full |
09:19 | magnuse | sounds like a good precaution! |
09:21 | thd | After my father retired from the California Department of Water Resources he did some work on earth quake preparedness for Los Angeles in the 1980s. |
09:22 | Los Angeles has multiple major faults and had had major earthquakes but had no emergency plan specifically for earthquakes in the early 1980s. | |

15:19 | wizzyrea | I sometimes get confused |
15:20 | ok yes sorry, that's a harleyism | |
15:21 | oleonard: we fixed our problem with the "return home" prompts -- they work fine as long as you have your sysprefs set up right | |

15:35 | authority search from addbiblio | |
15:35 | any more specifics? | |
15:37 | oleonard | In my case I clicked to search for an author (100a) and did a search by Main entry ($a only) |

15:48 | oleonard | It was a good post: http://atzberger.blogspot.com/[…]this-message.html |
15:48 | Although part of me wants to say "What did you expect from OverDrive?" | |
15:49 | wizzyrea | I agree with that, but it still sucks, and I feel like people are ignoring it |
15:49 | "well that's the price of being able to offer digital content" | |
15:49 | uh, no | |
15:57 | gmcharlt | though the alternative to OverDrive is libraries organizing themselves to work with the publishers collectively |
15:57 | thd is now known as thd-away | |
15:57 | * slef | applauds gmcharlt for the various patching work |
15:57 | rhcl | we just bought into Overdrive, and I am personally not at all happy. |
15:57 | slef | gmcharlt: they could form an Online Centre for Library Collective bargaining... oh, wait, ... |
15:57 | gmcharlt | at the moment, I get the impression that the publishers like working with OverDrive because it is a single entity to talk to |
15:58 | rhcl | It is so totally locked up, and doesn't work with Linux at all. |
15:58 | gmcharlt | libraries working individually would be betting *much* worse terms from the ebook publishers, I think |
15:58 | so I believe that any solution that's better for libraries than OverDrive has to be done collectively | |
15:58 | rhcl | I've let it be known that Overdrive as a toll free help number, and that's who they should call when the angry patrons start coming in. |
15:58 | slef | rhcl: we lost the platform-neutrality argument with DVDs sadly :-( |
15:58 | gmcharlt | slef: instant trademark lawsuit! ;) |
15:59 | slef | gmcharlt: bah, trademarks are an anti-competitive monopoly. Someone should accuse OCLC of that sort of thing ;-) |
16:00 | rhcl: is there a polite way to say "we told you so"? | |
16:00 | rhcl | Well, with DVDs -- those are going the way of the floppy--everything is a digital file now, either on a thumb drive or a stream from the cloud. |
16:00 | gmcharlt | slef: heh. there is a rather an irony that SkyRiver, which is a creature of III, that's in fact the one doing that in the US courts |
16:00 | slef | gmcharlt: oh, there's so much irony in that dispute we could mine it and make steel! |

17:56 | (is it safe?) | |
18:01 | ok, i'll read the code | |
18:03 | nengard_lunch is now known as nengard | |
18:03 | jcamins_away | tcohen: I wouldn't. |
18:03 | (use it) | |
18:03 | * oleonard | hates that there are things in Koha that we shouldn't use. We should take them out. |
18:04 | jcamins_away | Or fix them. |
18:04 | tcohen | LinkBibHeadingsToAuthorities doesn't look bad |
18:06 | oleonard is now known as oleonard-away | |
18:06 | tcohen | you mean like removing zebraqueue? |
18:06 | :D | |
18:06 | (zerbaqueue_daemon i mean) | |
18:07 | nengard | oleonard did you have an issue after upgrading virtualbox? |
18:07 | it keeps prompting me to upgrade, but i remember others having issues | |
18:07 | so i've held off | |
18:07 | jcamins_away | nengard: my upgrade seemed to work fine. |
18:08 | nengard | good stuff |
18:08 | jcamins_away | But then, my VM is broken half the time anyway, so how would I know? |
18:08 | nengard | hehe |
18:08 | tcohen | nengard: oleonard had to tell virtualbox to forget "saved states" about usb's or something |
18:09 | jcamins: is there any reported bug around link_bibs_to... ? | |
18:10 | jcamins_away | tcohen: no, because I can't clearly identify any problem with it. It just seems to cause problems. |
18:11 | Wow. | |
18:11 | It just got *black* out. | |
18:12 | tcohen | ok, i'll do some test and report back if I find something |
18:12 | have a nice weekend #koha | |
18:15 | fcapo | There's bug 5410 :/ |
18:15 | huginn | 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5410 normal, PATCH-Sent, ---, fcapovilla, ASSIGNED, "Right truncation not supported" error when running link_bibs_to_authorities.pl |

18:19 | oleonard | nengard: I had to discard my VM's saved state after upgrading |
18:20 | nengard | i'm not sure what that means - but i'll upgrade and you can tell me :) hehe |
18:20 | oleonard | I would shut down your vm all the way first |
18:27 | nengard | oo it's fancy |
18:28 | okay how do i clear the saved state - cause i got a usb error | |
18:28 | jcamins_away | If you don't use USB, couldn't you just disable it? |
18:28 | (just guessing) | |
18:29 | oleonard | right-click on that VM's entry I think |
18:33 | francharb left #koha | |
18:33 | nengard | jcamins - my mouse is usb |
18:34 | jcamins_away | nengard: VirtualBox cares? |
18:34 | I have a USB keyboard and mouse, and never noticed it being a problem that I had disabled USB. | |
18:34 | nengard | hmmm |
18:38 | * jcamins_away | isn't an expert, though. |
18:55 | tcohen | the usb devices are "passed" directly to the virtual machine to handle them |
18:55 | BUT | |
18:55 | that's not true for input devices | |
18:56 | as virtualbox does some extra stuff for using them in the host OS | |

19:46 | wizzyrea | rhcl: about? |
19:47 | generally: with envisionware does anybody know if it pulls the PIN From the opac login? | |
19:47 | or somewhere else | |
19:48 | * jcamins_away | does not know. |
19:48 | wizzyrea | I honestly cannot think of another field that it would use |
19:48 | envisionware = SIP, if that triggers an alert for anybody :P | |
19:49 | * jcamins_away | knows that libraries are using it successfully with Koha, though. |
19:49 | wizzyrea | the PIN? |
19:49 | jcamins_away | No, Envisionware. |
19:49 | wizzyrea | we use envisionware and it works passably enough |
19:49 | jcamins_away | Sorry. |

20:10 | druthb1 joined #koha | |
20:14 | rhcl | I'm here |
20:15 | AFAIK Envisionware sends the login ID and PIN to the ILS server just like most other things. | |
20:15 | druthb left #koha | |
20:15 | rhcl | Was that not the question though? |
20:16 | wizzyrea | yep that was the question |
20:16 | so it's the opac login? | |
20:16 | for user/pass | |
20:16 | pin | |
20:16 | ty for the info rhcl | |
20:16 | rhcl | What's the difference between an OPAC login and the regular Koha library card/PIN? |
20:17 | We looked at Envisionware for a while, and actually had a couple of personal demos at trade shows. | |
20:18 | If you are OK with a closed, proprietary system Envisionware looks like it has more polish and is better put together than most other PAC access systems. | |
20:18 | But I pretty much prefer Libki these days--I have total control over both the server and the clients. | |
20:19 | Envisionware is one of those systems where you are totally dependent on them, don't open the box or it'll explode. | |
20:20 | It's also better accessorized than some others--they have integrated copiers, printers, coffee pots, etc. | |
20:21 | And if I remember right they also have the automated book return sorter thingers. | |
20:21 | wizzyrea | I don't really have a say in what they use |
20:21 | my libraries are buying envisionware | |
20:21 | * jcamins_away | giggles at the idea of a coffee pot controlled by SIP. |
20:21 | wizzyrea | tee hee |
20:21 | rhcl | Expensive, but with the "closed system" caveat Envisionware seems to work well. |
20:22 | * jcamins_away | imagines someone coming into the office and going to get a cup of coffee only to be told "too many fines. Please see circulation desk." |
20:23 | rhcl | You know, that's an idea really. These access systems can accept cash via coin and bill machines, and can maintain a credit balance.... |
20:24 | jcamins_away | Or even better "your coffee mug has been recalled. Please return to the circulation desk immediately." |
20:24 | rhcl | so that patrons can print without paying, with the cost deducted from their on-line balance. |
20:24 | wizzyrea | haha |
20:24 | alright: http://wizzyrea.wordpress.com/[…]e-need-your-help/ | |
20:24 | * wizzyrea | shamelessly self promotes |
20:24 | jcamins_away | rhcl: it makes sense. I'm just enjoying the image of someone being denied a cup of coffee because they don't return their books. |
20:24 | rhcl | Why couldn't you have a pay coffee machine which SIP accesses an ILS database and deducts 95 cents for money? |
20:24 | * wizzyrea | imagines lending coffee |
20:25 | wonders what the return chute would look like | |
20:25 | rhcl | Or if it was a simple overdue book, maybe the could get black coffee, but not cream and sugar???? Works for me. |
20:26 | Heck, I'll bet Overdrive could figure out a way to lend coffee cups and have them auto-disintegrate after 14 days. | |
20:28 | But they probably wouldn't work with Linux.... | |
20:34 | jcamins_away | Hey, does anyone know if it's possible to tell Zebra to only find matches for two terms in the *same* field? |
20:34 | * jcamins_away | is thinking about relator terms. |
