| === mighty is now known as ozmighty | ||
| === ozmighty is now known as mighty | ||
| ggilbert | Riddell: I like knowing what I'm running, but it seems redundant to list something as Personal Information Manager ( Kontact ) or Web Browser ( Konqueror ). | 02:58 |
| Riddell | if you have 2 web browsers installed you wouldn't know which you were about to run | 02:58 |
| ggilbert | yeah that is a problem | 02:59 |
| ggilbert | how does gnome handle it? Do they do the same thing as KDE? | 03:00 |
| === ggilbert installs and looks | ||
| Riddell | eek, I made someone install gnome :) | 03:03 |
| ggilbert | haha | 03:03 |
| ggilbert | I do it every release anyways :p | 03:03 |
| brian_ | lol | 03:03 |
| ggilbert | if they just hide the app name, then the kde way might be the lesser of two evils | 03:04 |
| brian_ | i just came in and i'm not sure what you are talking about. It sounds like menus? | 03:05 |
| ggilbert | brian_: yeah | 03:05 |
| ggilbert | brian_: The current menu entries being Description ( Name ) | 03:05 |
| maxchee | okay, I just think that kde can be complex without being complicated | 03:06 |
| maxchee | right now the UI is chaotic | 03:06 |
| maxchee | it would be a lot nicer if the saner configs and better organizations are applied | 03:07 |
| maxchee | also, is kubuntu aware of the KDE usability group? | 03:07 |
| maxchee | I read on dotKDE that they are drafting a HIG for KDE! | 03:08 |
| Riddell | maxchee: kubuntu-default-settings attempts to do this | 03:08 |
| Riddell | maxchee: concrete suggestions would be very welcome | 03:09 |
| brian_ | i like Internet - Web Browsers - Mozilla etc.. then list all browsers that you have installed on your computer | 03:09 |
| maxchee | then the next thing would be to make the UI more context-aware | 03:09 |
| Riddell | maxchee: I am incontact with the usability man, we plan to have a good look at all the settings sometime after hoary | 03:09 |
| maxchee | ie. more context-aware popup menus | 03:09 |
| ggilbert | maxchee: indepth ui changes are a little outside the realm of the distribution maintainer though | 03:10 |
| Riddell | maxchee: right click means exist throughout KDE | 03:10 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: I am aware of that | 03:10 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: it would be better if kubuntu can help kde to simplify its yi | 03:10 |
| maxchee | sorry, I mean UI | 03:10 |
| maxchee | Riddell: they are just too long | 03:10 |
| maxchee | Riddell: and a lot of menus can be replaced by drag and drop (example: the applet addition/deletion menus) | 03:11 |
| ggilbert | brian_: personally i don't like the idea of adding too many submenus. It breaks it makes things a bit tougher to get to. | 03:11 |
| maxchee | Riddell: and although people are complaining about gconf, it would be nice if kde have such a thing | 03:12 |
| ggilbert | s/it breaks// | 03:12 |
| maxchee | Riddell: a lot of the settings are rarely used | 03:12 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: a gconf/about:config like system will pacify the advanced users and help less advanced users adopt | 03:13 |
| maxchee | Riddell: also, I believe it's a good idea to separate konquorer into two apps | 03:14 |
| brian_ | ggilbert: I guess for me it is eaiser, when I want to run a app that is internet related I just go to the Internet menu then to whatever submenu I need | 03:14 |
| maxchee | Riddell: this is inline with the unix philosophy of small tools with focused functions. | 03:15 |
| ggilbert | I dunno, I've always thought of konqueror as being in line with that philosphy | 03:16 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: but it's a file manager and a browser all rolled into one! | 03:17 |
| Riddell | maxchee: sounds like you have a few KDE gripes (all perfectly valid) | 03:17 |
| Riddell | :) | 03:17 |
| maxchee | and the UI shows it | 03:17 |
| maxchee | Riddell: I really wanted to use kde | 03:17 |
| Riddell | maxchee: applet addition/deletion is being fixed in the next KDE version | 03:17 |
| maxchee | Riddell: I am big fan of DCOP/Kparts | 03:17 |
| maxchee | Riddell: is the next version 4.0? | 03:17 |
| Riddell | maxchee: next version is either 3.5 or 4.0 | 03:17 |
| Riddell | gconf smells, the problem is to sort and allow to search configutaion options in a usable way | 03:18 |
| maxchee | Riddell: did the usability team set a schedule on the adoption of HIG by apps shiped with KDE? | 03:18 |
| Riddell | which is also being looked at for KDE 4 | 03:18 |
| Riddell | maxchee: KDE 4 | 03:18 |
| Riddell | is the schedule | 03:18 |
| maxchee | Riddell: well, I think about:config in firefox might be a better example | 03:18 |
| Riddell | maxchee: konqueror is a very small tool with a focused function (to load kparts) | 03:19 |
| Riddell | maxchee: about:config being a configuration dialogue? | 03:19 |
| maxchee | Riddell: type about:config into firefox | 03:19 |
| Riddell | i have no firefox | 03:19 |
| maxchee | Riddell: it is a bit too primitive for kde, but it might work better than gconf (which is comparable to the dreaded windows registry) | 03:20 |
| maxchee | Riddell: or mozilla | 03:20 |
| Riddell | I have no mozilla | 03:20 |
| maxchee | Riddell: well, I will send you a screenshot then | 03:20 |
| ggilbert | Riddell: basically it just lists all of the config file options for mozilla in one long html page | 03:20 |
| maxchee | yes | 03:21 |
| ggilbert | I dont think it's all that useful myself | 03:21 |
| maxchee | again, firefox does not have all than many settings, which means it is very primitive | 03:21 |
| ggilbert | since you dont necessarilly know what are valid responses in the context of the config | 03:21 |
| maxchee | somehow, by making the config system a two-tier system, it allows people to tweak the common settings quickly to get to work and tweak kde further when they have time to get rid of their small complains so that it fits like a glove | 03:22 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: that's true | 03:22 |
| maxchee | Riddell: my gripe with konqueror is that I would like it to have a UI focused on browsing only when it is in browser mode | 03:23 |
| ggilbert | I'm kind of the opinion that if an option is not important enough to put in the preferences, then it probably should just be removed altogether | 03:23 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: that's another option. although some kde people hate to learn from the gnome project | 03:24 |
| maxchee | Riddell: and a UI focused on file management and loading kparts for preview without any browsing functions | 03:24 |
| ggilbert | maxchee: That stuff is improving | 03:25 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: although it still needs some work before it can reach firefox's simplicity | 03:25 |
| ggilbert | maxchee: yeah | 03:26 |

| BROKEN_LADDER | sweet..i just plugged in my usb mouse and took my ps/2 mouse out and it just works.. | 03:28 |
| brian_ | but you have to keep kde fast too | 03:28 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | that's way to simple for linux. | 03:28 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: also will KDE 4 require a longer period of time to develop? | 03:28 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: since it's a major revision. | 03:29 |
| ggilbert | it needs more work, and I teahteag | 03:29 |
| ggilbert | blah | 03:29 |
| ggilbert | yeah | 03:29 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: but will it take as long as KDE2? | 03:29 |
| ggilbert | don't know, i seriously doubt it though | 03:29 |
| ggilbert | kde 1 and kde2 are much more different from each other than kde 2 and kde 3 seem | 03:30 |
| brian_ | i hated kde 1 | 03:30 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: both gnome2 and kde2 sufferred from long dev time | 03:30 |
| maxchee | brian_: I actually think kde 1 is much better compared to gnome 1 | 03:30 |
| maxchee | brian_: at least most things work | 03:31 |
| maxchee | lastly, anyone here using koffice? | 03:31 |
| brian_ | yes you are right but i found it very bloated | 03:31 |
| ggilbert | I dont think suffered is quite the right word. Both projects took the time to stop and focus a bit more. KDE suffered from the second system effect a bit more than gnome | 03:31 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: second system effect? | 03:32 |
| ggilbert | I actually liked kde 1 quite a bit. I started using the betas of it when i started with linux, and it was a very nice desktop for the time | 03:32 |
| ggilbert | maxchee: A bit over built | 03:32 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: yeah. | 03:32 |
| ggilbert | maxchee: the idea is that the second time you build something you tend to over compensate for design flaws in the first one | 03:33 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: a lot of popular oss suffer from feature-creep, but right now firefox is setting a better trend | 03:33 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: so over-engineered? | 03:33 |
| brian_ | catch you later kids bath time | 03:33 |
| ggilbert | gnome did the same thing, but in the opposite direction :) | 03:33 |
| brian_ | i mean my kids bath time | 03:33 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: under-built? | 03:34 |
| ggilbert | maxchee: a bit. They got the idea that their stuff was too chaotic and tried to simplify it. I think they went a little too far | 03:34 |
| === jiyuu0 [~jiyuu0@218.208.195.131] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| maxchee | ggilbert: that's true | 03:34 |
| ggilbert | I think both systems are gradually moving towards a good medium though | 03:34 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: metacity made sense, but natutilus is a bit too far | 03:35 |
| maxchee | the other thing is, it would be nice if kde and gnome could share more infrastructures. | 03:35 |
| maxchee | it's not productive to make two vfs systems, two drawing libraries etc. | 03:35 |
| maxchee | this is why I think freedesktop is so important | 03:35 |
| ggilbert | I dont think that will ever change, there are just too many core disagreements there | 03:36 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: but will qt ever adopt cairo as it drawing library | 03:36 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: after all, it's a freedesktop project | 03:36 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: although I do understand that it's difficult to work together | 03:37 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: when two projects have vastly different goals | 03:37 |
| ggilbert | remember, qt is outside of the scope of kde | 03:37 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: that's true | 03:37 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: although kde does have some say in it | 03:37 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: or am I wrong? | 03:37 |
| ggilbert | maxchee: I'm sure trolltech pays attention to the opinions of some KDE developers, but all decisions are made by Trolltech | 03:38 |

| ggilbert | you have some overlap because some trolltech employees are kde developers | 03:39 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: qt is a really nice toolkit, and trolltech have made a lot of compromises to make it more suitable for oss development | 03:39 |
| ggilbert | yeah they've really gone far beyond what could be expected of them | 03:39 |
| maxchee | hopefully the qtwin32 4.x licensing change will cause more oss projects to adopt qt | 03:39 |
| maxchee | ggilbert: but I guess most commercial companies are just too greedy | 03:40 |

| dimmak | is roey your real name? | 06:15 |
| Roey | kaplanfx: those patches are available only for specific kernel versions | 06:15 |
| kaplanfx | Roey: no, you need to build initial ramdisk support in the kernel then build with --initrd to make an initrd kernel | 06:15 |
| Roey | kaplanfx: so I said, screw grub, I'll use LILO | 06:15 |
| Roey | kaplanfx: NO it is not enough | 06:16 |

| da_bon_bon | BROKEN_LADDER: resier4 is bad | 07:55 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | bad? | 07:56 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it was highly touted on articles i read. | 07:56 |
| da_bon_bon | real bad | 07:56 |
| da_bon_bon | it broke my machine | 07:56 |
| ggilbert | I wouldnt trust it as far as I can throw the cd it's on :p | 07:56 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i can't even get it to work. | 07:56 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i installed the reiser4 kernel patch. | 07:56 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | still nothing. | 07:56 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | okay..i guess i'll hold off using it for now. | 07:57 |
| ian__ | reiser (3?) worked for me for years, but I switched to ext3 for the better laptop support | 07:58 |
| ggilbert | ian__: reeiserfs and reiser4 are very different beasts | 07:58 |
| ian__ | is reiser4 new? if so, it wasn't that. :) | 07:58 |
| da_bon_bon | BROKEN_LADDER: even grub cant currently use reiser4 | 07:58 |
| ggilbert | reiser4 looks really cool, but I wouldnt trust it until it gets quite a bit more testing | 07:59 |
| ian__ | seeing the words "new" and "file system" anywhere near each other scares me :) | 07:59 |
| ggilbert | particularly around "hans reiser" :p | 08:00 |
| ggilbert | reiser3 was pretty dangerous when it was new | 08:00 |
| ian__ | why, is he a nut? | 08:00 |
| ggilbert | gave it a really bad reputation | 08:00 |
| ggilbert | ian__: not bad | 08:00 |
| ian__ | I chose it after reading some benchmarks | 08:00 |
| ian__ | I'd stick with it, except the ext3 has the laptop-mode now | 08:01 |
| ggilbert | I used to use reiser3, it worked well | 08:01 |
| ggilbert | he does have some annoying ideas when it comes to licensing | 08:01 |
| ian__ | like what? | 08:05 |
| ggilbert | ian__: He used to have a clause where you couldn't remove code from his tools that had to do with credits | 08:11 |

| BROKEN_LADDER | is there anything wrong with this line? /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hd2 reiserfs umask=0222 0 0 | 08:13 |
| ggilbert | BROKEN_LADDER: I'm going to venture a guess and say reiserfs is incorrect | 08:14 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | uh..no, the partition is reiser | 08:14 |
| ggilbert | reiser4 is not reiser3 | 08:14 |
| ggilbert | make sure reiserfs is correct for a reiser4 partition | 08:15 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | oh, it was the umask. | 08:15 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | it's not | 08:15 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i changed the partition to reiserfs | 08:15 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | for reiser4 it's "reiser4" | 08:15 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i just had to change the umask=0222, so i just put in "defaults" instead of figuring out what i typed wrong. | 08:16 |
| ggilbert | ah | 08:16 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | what umask should i use to get the same as chmod 1777 ? | 08:17 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | i want to make the partition so that everyone can store things in it. | 08:17 |

| === Jeezis [~None@12.173.111.233] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ggilbert | wait | 08:20 |
| ggilbert | umasks work by setting every bit set to 1 in the mask to 0 in the final result | 08:21 |
| ggilbert | so if you want 1777 you probably want 0000 | 08:21 |
| ggilbert | hmm that would allow suid | 08:21 |
| ggilbert | 6000 maybe | 08:21 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | wouldn't chmod 744 be umask=7033? | 08:23 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | or is the first bit of umask actually not a mask, but just like chmod? | 08:23 |
| ggilbert | I think so | 08:23 |
| BROKEN_LADDER | warning: unknown mount option "umask=0222" | 08:27 |
| ian__ | ggilbert: err, that is kinda nutty | 08:27 |
| ggilbert | ian__: the idea is to let you to force certain permissions off | 08:28 |
| ian__ | ggilbert: no no, the last thing you said to me :) | 08:28 |

| dimmak | you might want to run gtf passed with your max resolution and max refresh rate at that resolution to generate a modeline, ie "gtf 1600 1200 85" ... Then replace the hardcoded display values in your xorg.conf to that single modeline... I had to do this to get my 1900x1200 display working properly. | 12:47 |

| incubii | ill give it a try dimmak | 12:49 |
| dimmak | i'll link you to where i got the info | 12:49 |
| markc | it's an extracted cloop iso... this one is a knoppix image but I'm strying to solve a different problem with the kubuntu livecd image | 12:49 |
| markc | whenever I try to remaster the current kubuntu livecd image it gets larger in size... so I was messing with a knoppix iso to see if it did the same thing, expect it's read-only even though it loop mounted | 12:51 |
| incubii | oh | 12:51 |
| incubii | because it uses a special defrag util | 12:51 |
| incubii | and symlinks multiple files | 12:52 |
| incubii | www.knoppix.net will have info as to why your ISOs will be larger then theirs | 12:52 |
| markc | ah! where is this special defrag util ? | 12:52 |
| markc | heh, I've spent hours trying to work this out ... would you know where on www.knoppix.net by any chance ? | 12:53 |
| incubii | lol | 12:53 |
| incubii | the customizing section ? | 12:54 |
| incubii | i havent looked into those problems for ages | 12:54 |

| incubii | yeah its great, im a debian fan | 01:03 |
| incubii | and i dont like ubuntu | 01:03 |
| incubii | cause its gnome | 01:03 |
| incubii | someone mentioned kubuntu | 01:03 |
| incubii | so gave ti a try | 01:04 |
| dimmak | yeah... i am not a fan of gnome | 01:04 |
| incubii | it rocks specially after using Yellow Dog Linux | 01:04 |
| dimmak | i usually would do the install script for knoppix | 01:04 |

| incubii | partially | 01:04 |

| incubii | hmm accelerated sound | 01:07 |
| incubii | thats an interesting problem | 01:08 |
| dimmak | accelerated... our pitch problems? | 01:08 |
| incubii | it speeds up | 01:08 |
| incubii | or maybe its pitch | 01:08 |
| incubii | it sounds faster | 01:08 |

| dimmak | i am playing around with the amaroK player right now... i like it so far | 01:10 |
| incubii | i honestly have no idea how to mount an iso rw | 01:11 |
| incubii | u might need something a lil more powerful then mount | 01:11 |
| incubii | like ultraiso for windows only the linux version | 01:11 |
| incubii | if there is such a program for linux | 01:12 |
| dimmak | playing around with a live-cd you can save to? | 01:12 |
| markc | incubii> np, but it's not the iso itself... it's the extracted file I am loop mounting... the kubuntu livecd iso works fine, as evry other livecd iso I've tried to remaster | 01:12 |
| markc | wierd | 01:12 |
| incubii | hmm | 01:12 |
| incubii | that is weird | 01:12 |
| markc | a klaus trick to prevent the cdbit image from being altered, I suspect | 01:12 |
| markc | cebit | 01:12 |
| incubii | well if he can turn it on, you can turn it off | 01:13 |
| markc | it does complain about no /etc/fstab inside the chroot, but, being ro I can't add one | 01:13 |
| markc | yes, I would like to think so :) | 01:14 |
| dimmak | incubii: you can also completely remove the subsection display modes from your xorg.conf... i did... i like not having unnecessary lines... be sure to backup your current working wrong... cuz i am sure that might not work on certain configs | 01:14 |

| chavo | you can use gtk apps under KDE though | 10:27 |
| phxguy | oh okay that explains it.... thanks | 10:27 |

| apokryphos | phxguy: wherever you downloaded it to... to install it, you should specify the prefix. Not sure if it will necessarily work; might. | 10:38 |
| phxguy | ok i found one im gonna try its baghira for debian... think its a deb package.... | 10:38 |
| phxguy | the instructions on there say to do apt-get install kwin-style-baghira | 10:39 |
| phxguy | will it put the files where it needs to be automatically? | 10:40 |

| Slike | i still don't get an ip using my centrino wlan card...although it sees my network :-( | 10:46 |
| Slike | any suggestions? | 10:46 |
| phxguy | are you using wep?? | 10:47 |
| Slike | yes | 10:47 |
| Slike | 64-bit open key | 10:47 |
| phxguy | did you type in the wep key | 10:47 |
| Slike | essid, wep, interface,... | 10:47 |
| Slike | kwifimanager monitors the signal | 10:47 |
| phxguy | does your router have mac address filtering on?? | 10:48 |
| phxguy | hmmm i have tried my wifi.... I suppose i should | 10:48 |
| Slike | yes, mac address filtering is turned on...but it should know my wlan card | 10:49 |
| phxguy | hmm dont know think ill try my wifi | 10:49 |
| Slike | if i do: dhclient eth1.... it tries to connect, but it shows a wrong netmask address (255.255.255.255 instead of 255.255.255.0) | 10:50 |
| Slike | is there a way to change that | 10:50 |
| wickie | Slike: shouldn't it get the netmask from the DHCP server? | 10:54 |
| Slike | the problem seems to be, that theres no dhcp request from my pc | 10:55 |
| phxguy | for some reason it isn't seeing my wi-fi usb adapter | 10:55 |
| Slike | and when i do it manualy, it does the same as when I used Fedora Core 2.... | 10:55 |
| Slike | there it was solved (the right subnetmask) with some file ifcfg-eth1 | 10:56 |
| wickie | Slike: perhaps you can change some settings in /etc/network/interfaces | 10:56 |
| Slike | i've been looking there | 10:57 |
| Slike | but what should i add? | 10:57 |
| wickie | Slike: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/howto/ndiswrapper/view?searchterm=dhcp%20netmask | 11:00 |
| wickie | Slike: maybe there's some useful info | 11:00 |
| Slike | thx, i'll have a look | 11:00 |
