| SuperL4g | mdz: do you know where the Kubuntu images can be had on BT right now? | 07:05 |

| b-_-d | bittorrent did not work | 07:07 |
| b-_-d | i will get the iso and host on a faster server | 07:07 |
| BamaJank | Alright, I want to check out kubuntu, what is the best method? I have 4.10 ubuntu on a cd, should I install that and just grab the KDE files or download the install CD for Kubuntu? | 07:08 |
| mdz | SuperL4g: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/hoary/preview/ | 07:08 |
| mdz | BamaJank: if you install Ubuntu 4.10, you will need to upgrade to the development release anyway in order to install the Kubuntu desktop | 07:09 |
| mdz | BamaJank: so it is probably simpler to download a new ISO | 07:09 |
| BamaJank | Thanks mdz, will do | 07:09 |

| SuperL4g | 20% | 07:15 |

| mdz | SuperL4g: did you receive the URL I sent you, where the .torrents are available? | 07:15 |
| mdz | they are in the same directory as the isos; we always publish torrents at the same time | 07:15 |
| b-_-d | torrents did not work | 07:15 |
| mdz | b-_-d: if they did not work for you, the problem is on your end (I am using them right now) | 07:16 |
| SuperL4g | mdz: yes sir, and unfortunately, no one wants or is going after the PPC .iso at the moment :) | 07:16 |

| Roey | hi | 07:31 |
| Roey | ok | 07:31 |
| Roey | what in the blue FUCK | 07:31 |
| mdz | kubuntu, like ubuntu, is free software | 07:31 |
| Roey | mdz: I reboot to try out Kubuntu, | 07:31 |
| Roey | I see that it detected my raid array | 07:32 |
| Roey | so I mount /dev/md5 (/home) | 07:32 |
| Roey | look around (not writing anything) | 07:32 |
| Roey | umount it, and reboot | 07:32 |
| b-_-d | Roey great i also run scsi | 07:32 |
| mdz | scsi and raid are orthogonal | 07:32 |
| Roey | upon rebooting, I see that md5 and md6 have been jumbled up; | 07:32 |
| Roey | that is, | 07:32 |
| b-_-d | my 39160 and 2940u2w worked | 07:33 |
| Roey | /dev/hde1 and /dev/hdg1 are now on /dev/md5, where before they were on /dev/md1 | 07:33 |
| b-_-d | Roey want scsi card? | 07:33 |
| Roey | no | 07:33 |
| b-_-d | hdg? | 07:33 |
| Roey | I want to know what kubuntu did that jumbled up the ordering of the drives. | 07:33 |
| b-_-d | that is ide | 07:33 |
| Roey | because now I can't load /home. | 07:34 |
| Roey | long story, I have two sata hard drives with a 2.6.7 kernel | 07:34 |
| Roey | /dev/hdg and /dev/hde | 07:34 |
| Roey | and they're in a software raid1 array. | 07:34 |
| Roey | so... | 07:34 |
| b-_-d | Roey fix by hand from live cd in chroot | 07:34 |
| Roey | I want to fix it so that /dev/md1 consists of /dev/hd{e,g}1 | 07:35 |
| Roey | and that /dev/md5 consist of /dev/hd{e,g}5 | 07:35 |
| Roey | and that /dev/md6 consists of /dev/hd{e,g}6 | 07:35 |
| Roey | like that. | 07:35 |
| Roey | b-_-d: how? | 07:35 |
| Roey | b-_-d: I don't know what got messed up. | 07:35 |
| SuperL4g | Okay... some investigation tells me that Luxi Sans is part of the ttf-freefont package. But apt-get install tells me the newest version is already installed. If that is the case, why do I not see Luxi Sans in any list of fonts anywhere? | 07:35 |
| b-_-d | mount the drive and do trile and error | 07:36 |
| b-_-d | i only use real raid | 07:36 |
| b-_-d | but i am not knocking software raid | 07:37 |
| mdz | SuperL4g: that font is not part of ttf-freefont | 07:37 |
| b-_-d | 25% | 07:37 |
| SuperL4g | mdz: do you know what package it comes in? | 07:38 |
| mdz | SuperL4g: I have never heard of it | 07:38 |

| b-_-d | http://www.kubuntu.org.uk/documentation.php#d0e275 | 07:44 |
| b-_-d | read under "Package Management" | 07:44 |
| b-_-d | person coding missed the word all | 07:45 |

| psoulocybe | i'm trying to setup a static ip | 08:26 |
| psoulocybe | i can't find it in kcontrol | 08:27 |
| psoulocybe | any ideas? | 08:27 |
| dilema | BROKEN_LADDER, versioning? | 08:27 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | huh? | 08:27 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | what do you mean? | 08:27 |
| dilema | dist-upgrade would upgrade the entire OS and the version(base) | 08:27 |
| dilema | while upgrade would simply upgrade all of that but keep the old version file | 08:27 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | version? | 08:28 |
| psoulocybe | anyone know how to do the network settings? | 08:28 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | "do"? | 08:28 |
| dilema | BROKEN_LADDER, yes the /etc/release or whatever your distro uses | 08:28 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | you mean like ipchains? | 08:28 |
| psoulocybe | no, i just want my local ipaddress to be static | 08:28 |
| dilema | psoulocybe, that'd be the net file | 08:28 |
| psoulocybe | where is that? | 08:29 |
| dilema | where you set the static ip | 08:29 |
| dilema | and dhcp/dns | 08:29 |
| psoulocybe | i'm a little lost w/ the new kde | 08:29 |
| dilema | on ubuntu not really sure(funny you ask I was looking for it earlier) | 08:29 |
| psoulocybe | i can't find it anywhere | 08:29 |
| psoulocybe | and no one on my other linux channels has any idea either | 08:29 |
| psoulocybe | i figured someone on #kubuntu would know :) | 08:30 |
| dilema | on gentoo its /etc/conf.d/net | 08:31 |
| dilema | let me look | 08:31 |
| dilema | a bit harder | 08:31 |
| Clintology | dilema: he's saying. like in ubuntu you go to System > Administration > Network Settings | 08:31 |
| dilema | Clintology, which is the same as modifing the net file | 08:32 |
| dilema | but on a more perm basis | 08:32 |
| Clintology | who wants to edit a file to change their IP though? :) | 08:32 |
| dilema | if he's looking for the GUI frotnend in KDE | 08:32 |
| psoulocybe | lol | 08:32 |
| dilema | I don't know | 08:32 |
| psoulocybe | yeah... i don't | 08:32 |
| psoulocybe | in the last kde it was in kcontrol | 08:33 |
| psoulocybe | but now it's not here | 08:33 |
| Clintology | dilema: yes, that was his question :) | 08:33 |
| dilema | heh | 08:33 |
| dilema | sorry | 08:33 |
| psoulocybe | if there is a command line way, i'm cool with that | 08:33 |
| dilema | psoulocybe, there is | 08:33 |
| === dilema looks to see where those ubuntu people stashed it | ||
| psoulocybe | lol | 08:34 |
| psoulocybe | i love my router, but god i wish it gave ip addresses based on mac address... it made it so much easier | 08:34 |
| dilema | not wireless? | 08:34 |
| psoulocybe | it's wireless | 08:34 |
| dilema | huh | 08:34 |
| psoulocybe | but my computer isn't wireless | 08:34 |

| dilema | wtf | 08:38 |
| dilema | where the hell is it | 08:38 |
| psoulocybe | i'm trying it in /etc/network/interfaces | 08:38 |
| psoulocybe | i figure i can specify address, netmask, and gateway... and i should be cool | 08:39 |
| dilema | ifconfig_eth0=( | 08:39 |
| dilema | "192.168.1.101 netmask 255.255.255.0" | 08:39 |
| dilema | ) | 08:39 |
| dilema | that | 08:39 |
| dilema | where 192.168.1.101 = your ip addy | 08:39 |
| psoulocybe | i have to specify my dns too don't i? | 08:39 |
| psoulocybe | shit | 08:40 |
| dilema | one sec | 08:40 |
| psoulocybe | i'm going to have to call my provider | 08:40 |

| dilema | "default gw 192.168.1.1" | 08:40 |

| psoulocybe | i remember having to when i had my dsk setup | 08:40 |
| dilema | thats your router addy | 08:40 |
| psoulocybe | i'll try using 192.168.1.1 | 08:40 |
| dilema | check your router | 08:41 |
| dilema | it should have your dns | 08:41 |
| psoulocybe | oooh | 08:41 |
| psoulocybe | good idea | 08:41 |
| psoulocybe | thx | 08:41 |
| dilema | actualy ya don't need DNS | 08:41 |
| dilema | heh | 08:41 |
| Quinn_Storm | some routers have a (caching/proxy) dns server built in...so yeah try pointing dns at your router and see if that works | 08:41 |
| psoulocybe | really? | 08:41 |
| dilema | just your netmask/static ip addy/router gateway | 08:42 |
| dilema | psoulocybe, ya my net file doens't have dns enttries | 08:42 |
| dilema | and it's set up for statip ip | 08:42 |
| dilema | (on my gentoo box) | 08:42 |
| psoulocybe | hmm... when i save interfaces, do i have to restart anything to get changes to take effect? | 08:42 |
| dilema | so just modify/add what I pasted and ya should be good | 08:42 |
| dilema | yeah | 08:42 |
| dilema | restart net | 08:43 |
| dilema | /etc/init.d/net restart | 08:43 |

| lexNL | hiya guys | 10:33 |
| memcmeme | hiya | 10:33 |
| lexNL | I've installed the kubuntu beta. | 10:33 |
| lexNL | now, when I open "storage media" and click on a drive | 10:33 |
| lexNL | I get an error! | 10:33 |
| ztonzy | lexNL, install pmount | 10:33 |
| lexNL | pmount? with kynaptic i assume? | 10:34 |
| ztonzy | "apt-get install pmount" | 10:34 |
| haggai | maybe we should add that workaround page to the topic | 10:34 |
| ztonzy | or in konsole (terminal) | 10:34 |
| ztonzy | haggai, I wonder if it is a workaround rather than a plain miss | 10:34 |
| lexNL | oh yeah, not sure where to put this, but on a normal install, with K3B, I had to install cdrdao manually | 10:34 |
| haggai | ztonzy: I don't get you. I mean workaround as in working around a known problem | 10:35 |

| ztonzy | haggai, I had same problems before...after browsing and goggling I first did modprobe usb-storage and then edited my fstab, then amu told me to install 'pmount' instead (I think it was he who told me to do that) | 10:36 |
| ztonzy | well... | 10:37 |
| ztonzy | I dont know everything, it is just a hunch | 10:37 |
| haggai | ztonzy: but if kubuntu had installed pmount by default, there would be no problem, right? | 10:37 |
| ztonzy | haggai, true | 10:37 |
| === danny666 [~danny@xdsl-213-196-211-64.netcologne.de] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| lexNL | ztonzy: I've installed pmount... I should reboot, or ...? | 10:38 |
| ztonzy | dont know if you need to "modprobe pmount" | 10:38 |
| ztonzy | but I would try the storage media first | 10:39 |
| ztonzy | I also wished this would work as default Ubuntu (with Gnome) that the drives(media) loads on desktop by auto...as on the Gnome desktop (I used Ubuntu before) | 10:40 |
| lexNL | ztonzy: yeah, I was impressed with that too. | 10:40 |
| lexNL | but I'm more a kde guy so... | 10:41 |
| ztonzy | lexNL, same here | 10:42 |
| haggai | ztonzy: bring it up on the mailing list (about icons on the desktop) and we'll see what the concensus is. I quite like the icons too | 10:42 |
| haggai | you guys do know it can be turned on in control centre, right? | 10:42 |
| lexNL | ztonzy: the media:// still complains about fstab orso. the modprobe pmount gives an "pmount not found" error | 10:42 |
| ztonzy | haggai, oops :) | 10:42 |
| ztonzy | lexNL, aah...maybe a reboot is at hand then | 10:43 |
| lexNL | hehehe :) ok... Will try that. Should I put pmount in some modules config file orso? to make sure that it loads? | 10:43 |
| haggai | I don't think it is a module | 10:43 |
| ztonzy | LOL | 10:44 |
| ztonzy | haggai, thanks...sorry :) | 10:44 |
| ztonzy | I think pmount has to do with hal-stuff...but I dunno | 10:44 |
| haggai | that's right | 10:44 |
| haggai | the user needs to be a member of the 'plugdev' group | 10:44 |
| === ztonzy is not fully linux guru yet...long yet to go | ||
| lexNL | haggai: is that so by default, or should I do some user-group magic? | 10:45 |

| lexNL | yep, it is. | 10:46 |
| lexNL | thanks. | 10:46 |

| lexNL | ztonzy: nope, no succes | 10:50 |
| lexNL | still get fstab error | 10:50 |
| ztonzy | hmm | 10:55 |
| ztonzy | I have lines in fstab, but I commented them out | 10:55 |
| lexNL | yeah... i guess the idea is that pmount /dev/hda2 mounts it automatically in /media orso... but it doesn't seem like media:// actually uses pmount | 10:56 |
| lexNL | because it still gives errors about /etc/fstab | 10:56 |
| ztonzy | usb-sticks here get loaded as /dev/sda1 or sdb1/ | 10:58 |
| lexNL | i could try a usb-stick, but my normal harddisk partition won't even work yet :) | 10:58 |

| spiral | hi | 10:59 |
| lexNL | media:// does recognize my memory stick. | 11:00 |
| lexNL | and it actually mounts it as well | 11:00 |

| === lexNL impressed | ||
| lexNL | now the partitions | 11:00 |
| lexNL | nope, still nothing there. | 11:00 |
| ztonzy | lexNL, yepp, that is what we wanted for you | 11:00 |
| lexNL | but the memorystick works! | 11:00 |
| === lexNL happy to see my memorystick work that easy. | ||
| lexNL | the thing still does not work with /dev/hda6 for example, my big data partition. | 11:02 |
| ztonzy | lexNL, is usb-storage loaded when you do 'lsmod' ? | 11:02 |
| ztonzy | usb_storage I mean | 11:02 |
| lexNL | yep, part of the scsi_mod thing | 11:02 |
| lexNL | and ide_core | 11:02 |
| lexNL | and as itself | 11:03 |
| ztonzy | mine is also loaded by itselg | 11:03 |
| ztonzy | itself* | 11:03 |
| ztonzy | what mainboard type ? | 11:03 |
| lexNL | yep, looked over it, but it is here as well. | 11:03 |
| lexNL | mainboard as in motherboard? An asus amd64 mobo. | 11:03 |
| ztonzy | oh, better than mine...got a Asus kt600 | 11:03 |
| lexNL | k8v se here. | 11:04 |
| lexNL | not sure if it is any better - or any good at all - but it seems to work | 11:04 |
| ztonzy | I had Huge problems with my former mobo...a Shuttle with nforce2 ultra...network and filesystem error... | 11:06 |
| lexNL | (ok, I'll edit the fstab, probably the easiest way out.) | 11:06 |
| ztonzy | sold it and bought this little more than a week ago | 11:06 |
| lexNL | I actually had a asus k8n (i think it was) that only worked a day with my amd64, then it never booted up again. | 11:07 |
| lexNL | another asus k8n mobo also didn't work. | 11:07 |
| ztonzy | ack | 11:07 |
| lexNL | ok, that is better. | 11:14 |
| lexNL | now, I've always have to chown alex.alex my /mnt/hda2 directory, before I can write to it when the partition is mounted. | 11:15 |
| lexNL | is there a nicer way to do that? | 11:15 |
| lexNL | oh, have to go offline. Thanks for your help ztonzy! | 11:18 |

| nohar | you activate the windows with the shortcut ? | 01:26 |
| apokryphos | yup | 01:26 |
| nohar | rha :/ | 01:27 |
| apokryphos | what's happening? Is it not letting you select something as a shortcut? | 01:27 |
| nohar | the keypress does nothing | 01:27 |
| apokryphos | nohar: does it imply that it has applied the shortcut? As in, does the apply shortcut window disappear? | 01:27 |
| nohar | no it's supposed to activate it only | 01:28 |
| nohar | i found the problem | 01:28 |
| nohar | it's more anoying | 01:28 |
| nohar | it's not working with every shortcut :/ | 01:28 |
| nohar | shift-f1 does not work for instance | 01:29 |
| nohar | with kde 3.3 i used to have F1 bound to a konsole no modifier | 01:29 |

| nohar | "no, I really do think it's meant to only activate it." We agree on that | 01:30 |
| apokryphos | right | 01:30 |
| nohar | and that is not working if you chose the shortcut Shift-F1 | 01:30 |
| nohar | try it :) | 01:30 |
| apokryphos | F1 is likely taken up by something else in your system tray | 01:30 |
| apokryphos | it works with Shift-F1 | 01:31 |
| apokryphos | though that doesn't necessarily mean it'll work for you | 01:31 |

| Quinn_Storm | \sh: kde-devel 3.4 isn't in the ubuntu/kubuntu repositories yet | 05:20 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, so theres no way to develop for 3.4? | 05:21 |
| \sh | right now? | 05:21 |
| b-_-d | just ran md5 sum I the amd64 livecd | 05:21 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: you'd have to get & compile 3.4 yourself from kde sources as far as I know...I think they are working on fixing that though...it'll partly depend on when debian sid gets the packages too...b/c if they get them then it will be trivial for the ubuntu devs to add them | 05:22 |
| b-_-d | getting the i386 livecd | 05:22 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, so kdelibs4 is what? | 05:22 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: huh? kdelibs4 is the current kdelibs package (in hoary its 3.4 right now) | 05:22 |
| b-_-d | amd64 livecd will be posted on a fast server today | 05:23 |
| \sh | ok..this i need :) | 05:23 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, is kubuntu not based on the main packages? | 05:23 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: note that in typical debian parlance, the kdelibs4 is just the binaries, if you want the headers and stuff you need kdelibs4-dev. and no, kubuntu is, at least as far as I know, newer than the current debian sid packages | 05:24 |

| Quinn_Storm | \sh: its in the kdeartwork package, I promise, I didn't compile from source and I am using hoary myself | 05:27 |
| \sh | hmmm | 05:28 |
| Beineri | Quinn_Storm: what do you do if you cannot fulfill your promise? | 05:28 |

| Quinn_Storm | \sh: well at least you're not afraid of compiling stuff, hehe. I hate waiting for stuff to compile, that's why I'm a (k)ubunu user myself...debian seems to be the best base for a linux distro out there right now, and the k/ubuntu teams are doing great work on top of it | 05:37 |
| teprrr | Beineri, oh. thanks :) | 05:37 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, well...I like debian for servers in datacenters, but I'm running a serverfarm only with gentoo servers | 05:37 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, and I was searching for an easy to setup laptop solution :) | 05:38 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: my experience has been that debian is quite nice for a desktop thanks to the magic of apt (and the behind-the-scenes work all the maintainers do to make sure just about every single package "just works") | 05:39 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, and this wasn't like this when I had debian on my desktop...so i switched from debian to gentoo 3 years ago | 05:39 |
| \sh | and now my laptop runs with ubuntu :) | 05:40 |
| \sh | usability debian ;) | 05:40 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: ahh, well with debian these days, especially ubuntu/kubuntu, debian seems quite nice...I've only been using debian for like a year or so now...started with ubuntu/kubuntu like a month ago...I've tried a few others (even freebsd), but I like debian-based best. I started linux with slackware many years ago now | 05:41 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, hehe...1993 :) | 05:41 |
| \sh | suse slackware ;) | 05:41 |
| teprrr | hmm, kdesdk seems to be still kde 3.3.2 insetad of 3.4 :P | 05:42 |
| teprrr | like kde-i18n's too | 05:42 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: I could never get suse to install right...I had a short experience with redhat but I didn't like it much...tried out gentoo but got fed up with waiting for stuff (even on an athlon 1.2ghz/512MB ram) | 05:42 |
| \sh | kdesdk4? | 05:42 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: there isn't a kdesdk4 pkg yet | 05:42 |
| Quinn_Storm | teprrr: yeah they haven't packaged all of kde3.4 yet it only just came out | 05:42 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, oh, but it was logical ;) | 05:42 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, well...I was employed at redhat and at this time there wasn't any fedora at all...so the distri was nice...but now | 05:43 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: I just didn't like the setup much...and I tend to agree with the DFSG, being a bit of a Freedom nut myself so I don't mind debian...(though I have to admit I do use some non-Free packages) | 05:44 |
| Quinn_Storm | I think we all install the flashplayer | 05:44 |
| Quinn_Storm | if nothing else for homestarrunner.com | 05:44 |
| \sh | hmm..i should stop now with working on the computer and should watch constantine | 05:45 |
| teprrr | Quinn_Storm, yes I know it just came out :P | 05:45 |
| Quinn_Storm | lol...I've heard that was a good movie...haven't seen it yet | 05:45 |
| \sh | Quinn_Storm, i don't know..i will check it out...if the svcd implementation is working in totem ;) | 05:46 |
| Quinn_Storm | \sh: heh, it probably is...if not try some other players (kaffeine, mplayer, etc.) ... you may have to install stuff from an extra repository | 05:47 |
| \sh | but i must say, the locale configuration in ubuntu is really nice :) | 05:47 |
| \sh | mplayer is not working, i tried it with a normal mpg movie | 05:47 |
| \sh | but i have to check what it is | 05:47 |
| Quinn_Storm | deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main - install mplayer-whatever from there | 05:47 |

| manchine | amiroff: konversation | 07:18 |
| amiroff | manchine: yes, currently using it, seems ok | 07:18 |
| manchine | xchat is too much gtk (that is to say, DULL,) | 07:18 |
| Glin|Jol | manchine: heh true | 07:18 |
| amiroff | Glin|Jol: we're making a KDE distro to ditribute to our friends so, all apps must be qt based .. | 07:19 |
| Glin|Jol | yeah qt i would go konversation | 07:19 |
| manchine | amiroff: wise choice. ppl of refined eyecandy taste ;) | 07:20 |
| manchine | i'd never install ubuntu without this new K prefix | 07:20 |
| manchine | one thing that keeps on puzzling me... does ubuntu bundles any genearalk admin GUI tools? | 07:22 |
| manchine | otherwise, i see it as debian made a bit more easy | 07:22 |
| amiroff | manchine: well, that is the deal for kde devs isn't it? | 07:23 |
| amiroff | manchine: I never had latest kde so early on debian before | 07:23 |
| amiroff | manchine: so I am all for kubuntu/ubuntu, and I love other desktops too | 07:23 |
| manchine | amiroff: neither do i | 07:24 |
| manchine | but that was not my question | 07:24 |
| manchine | anything in the ubuntu world similar to mandrake control center or redhat's config tools? | 07:24 |
| amiroff | manchine: I don't think so | 07:25 |
| manchine | i can do most things regardless od distro, but i'm wondering about newbies | 07:26 |
| manchine | of | 07:26 |
| amiroff | manchine: for example there are gnome system tools and other gtk tools on ubuntu | 07:26 |
| amiroff | like network config, and app installing | 07:26 |
| amiroff | but for now, no qt counterparts afaik | 07:26 |

| apokryphos | ok, kdeaddons might actually be main kde stuff... :) | 10:43 |
| apokryphos | anyhow, if it's good -- suggest it; sounds like a good idea. | 10:43 |
| lookorez | is there a repository that has rubygems in it? | 10:45 |
| apokryphos | none of mine do | 10:48 |
| buga | lookorez: you can download sources from http://people.debian.org/~akira/rubygems/ and rebuild it on ubuntu | 10:52 |

| lookorez | im not sure | 10:56 |

| Roey | apokryphos: doesn't look like kdeaddons is even built | 10:56 |

| Roey | where can I suggest this on the wiki | 10:57 |

| buga | how did you installed the rubygems package? | 10:58 |
| lookorez | I think I downloaded rubygems from source | 10:59 |
| lookorez | what do I do with that .deb file? | 10:59 |
| buga | I see. I meaned source as "source debian package", when I said you can download sources from http://people.debian.org/~akira/rubygems/ and rebuild it on ubuntu" | 11:00 |

| apokryphos | Roey: you'll have to first login | 11:06 |
| Roey | I see. | 11:06 |
| Roey | apokryphos: can you do it for me? I have a bunch of things to get right with this system first | 11:06 |

| Roey | thank you :) : ):) :) | 11:08 |
| Roey | (kdeaddons, kde-devel and kde-bindings, including python-kde3) | 11:08 |

| apokryphos | same with PyKDE, which amu said he'll sort | 11:09 |
| Roey | hm | 11:10 |
| Roey | ok | 11:10 |
| lookorez | buga: why do you think gems can't find zlib even though I installed it? | 11:10 |
| Roey | heh, kaffeine doesn't work either (can't load a certain kpart; I suspect it has somethng to do with the BC inconsistency introduced last month into CVS0 | 11:11 |

| lookorez | well what does the error msg mean | 11:23 |
| lookorez | it means that it can't find gem installed or something? | 11:24 |
| lookorez | i looked at the code but I don' really know what it means | 11:25 |
| buga | did you run dpkg -i after the apt-get command again? | 11:26 |
| lookorez | oh nope | 11:27 |
| lookorez | i will try this | 11:27 |

| Beineri | apokryphos: or maxchee | 11:36 |

| maxchee | apokryphos: Installs package1, deinstalls package2 | 11:54 |
| apokryphos | heh, same here. | 11:54 |
| apokryphos | but how about the man page? | 11:55 |
| maxchee | apokryphos: debfoster maintains a list of installed packages that were explicitly requested rather than installed as a depen | 11:55 |
| maxchee | dency. Arguments are entirely optional, debfoster can be invoked per se after each run of dpkg and/or aptget. | 11:55 |
| maxchee | Alternatively you can use debfoster to install and remove packages by specifying the packages on the command line. | 11:55 |
| maxchee | Packages suffixed with a are removed while packages without a suffix are installed. | 11:55 |
| maxchee | If a new package is encountered or if debfoster notices that a package that used to be a dependency is now an | 11:55 |
| maxchee | orphan, it will ask you what to do with it. If you decide to keep it, debfoster will just take note and continue. | 11:55 |
| maxchee | If you decide that this package is not interesting enough it will be removed as soon as debfoster is done asking | 11:55 |
| maxchee | questions. If your choises cause other packages to become orphaned more questions will ensue. | 11:55 |
| apokryphos | maxchee: don't flood the channel. :) | 11:55 |
| maxchee | sorry, it's just part of the man page | 11:55 |
| apokryphos | under the Synopsis -- does it not imply that the syntax is like what I said above? | 11:56 |
| maxchee | apokryphs: I think this is what I need: sudo debfoster ubuntu-desktop | 11:58 |
| apokryphos | hehe, I don't quite know. | 11:58 |
| apokryphos | (btw, you can use TAB for auto-completion of nicks) | 11:58 |
| maxchee | thx, apokryphos. | 11:59 |
| maxchee | apokryphos, does debfoster purge the packages? | 12:01 |
