LeeJunFanapokryphos: yeah. I hate windows, the only reason I keep it around is for games. Now I just wish vmware would get a 64 bit version so I can run my needed work software w/o rebooting.12:01
LeeJunFanI've got more wasted HD space on this right now. WinXP, kubuntu amd64, kubuntu i386, /home, swap, and vmware virtual machine that I can run in i386 :)12:02

delltonyat least this is how i have found it09:20
haydenok09:20
delltonyyou take and uninstall the driver your installing (module)09:20
delltonythen reinstall the xorg one09:20

delltonybut the xorg one is buggy09:21

RoeySime:  second one:  translates from hebrew to english and back 10:37
RoeySime:  two versions of the first one:10:37
RoeySime:  1) python script that made system() calls to dcop commands10:37
RoeySime:  2) python program that imported dcop and used its functionality10:37

Simei remember vaguely10:45
Roeysee, these bindings feel awkard because they're just straight ports from C++10:45
danboidHi!10:45
Simethat is Phil and Jim's policy about PyQt and PyKDE.10:46
Simeit is already a lot of work to get where the bindigns are now.10:46

Roeyok10:47
RoeySime:  I understand the need for consistency between the ports of the bindings10:47
RoeySime:  at the same time I think that it hampers my style10:47

SimeRoey: it would be nicer if some things were more pythonic. 10:49
SimeRoey: but that is more a question of manpower.10:49
danboidMAYBE it just seems longer coz kubuntu doesn't show those icons when KDE starts to boot, I've not actually timed it but it is longer10:50
SimeRoey: i.e. there isn't enough.10:50
buzdanboid: actually, with the update of yesterday, it now shows the bootup icons. but beware, it trashed my taskbar config10:50

dimmakwell i can't get sudo working properly at the moment... affects the whole system... have to invoke every graphical program requiring sudo privileges from a su console... since apparently everything relies on sudo... so i can't just click administrative mode and put in a password12:20
dimmakkde user manager sure is effing things up12:23
dimmaki want sudo working... wah12:27
dimmakwell i guess this can be declared a super awesome bug.... if you add any additional group membership to your account with kde user manager you are gonna jack it all up12:30
Quinn_Stormdimmak: can you su?12:35
Quinn_Stormdimmak: if so, add your user account to the "wheel" group and you'll be able to sudo12:36
dimmaki can sudo again... but i don't know why12:38
dimmakbut i am in the control center... and i can't enable adminstrative mode on anything12:39
dimmaknow i can sudo just fine12:40
Quinn_Stormdimmak: make sure you upgrade to the most recent packages...there was a bug with administrator mode they fixed recently12:40
dimmakalright12:40
Quinn_Stormdimmak: not to mention, administrator mode requests your root password but you need to give it your user password as its patched to use sudo12:40
dimmaki figured it was using sudo12:40
dimmakbut either way... it wasn't responding to any password12:40
Quinn_Stormdimmak: ah.  well like I said make sure your user is in the wheel group, and make sure you have your system fully up-to-date12:41
dimmakdo you get a bug where if you add more group membership to your account... it totally messes it up?12:42
dimmakmy would get turned into a root account... and everything would be empty12:43

ztonzyapokryphos, tested your wecam yet ?04:32
YuXeLi've a little problem, when i use [tab]  on kosnole it completes the path, but adds a blank line at the end, is there a way to fix it ?04:32
apokryphosNot yet; only just got back from work when I signed on.04:32
apokryphosYuXeL: I believe all Terminals do that04:33
YuXeLit outputs like that04:33
YuXeL"vi /etc "04:33
apokryphosor, at least Linux consoles. I don't think there's an option to stop it doing that.04:34
YuXeLwhen i write vi /et and press tab04:34
YuXeLi want it to do it like04:34
YuXeL"vi /etc/"04:34
YuXeLit was like that on debian04:34
apokryphosit should do that. Do you have something in / called et?04:34
YuXeLnope04:35
apokryphosFolders should be autocompleted with a "/" at the end, but there should be a space for *files* at the end.04:35
apokryphosAnd it does this for all things? Try the same in a different folder, for something else...04:36
YuXeLthats the problem, that /etc directory completed like "/etc " not "/etc/" on kubuntu04:36
YuXeL /etc is an example04:36
apokryphosSomething is wrong with your konsole, then. Check if the same thing happens in another terminal04:36
YuXeLit's same on all directories04:36
apokryphossay, xterm.04:36

Quinn_Stormheh, oddly enough, though I use tabs for my browsing and IRCing, I don't like it for messaging06:20
apokryphosSame here, actually. :P06:20
buzactually, it'd much prefer a small bar the bottom that simply shows whatever comes by and lets me respond to it06:20
buzbut at least kopete can show me tooltips with new messages somewhere on screen06:20
Quinn_StormI think its b/c I tend to use alt+tab rather than clicking at the taskbar...I dunno06:21
apokryphosYeah, that's nice. Konvi can do the same with messages directed to you06:21
buzyeah i use that, too ;-)06:21
buzi would use kompose if my ati drivers could do composite06:21
Quinn_Stormbuz: does kompose use composite for something now? oh yeah, for the "instant" screenshots and stuff...well maybe one of these days we'll get properly GL-accelerated X working, heh06:22
apokryphosComposite with kcontrol stuff is actually really sweet. Fade in/out of windows is seriously flash.06:22
buzwhat card do you use apokryphos ? nvidia?06:22
apokryphosYeah06:22
buzi used to prefer ati06:22
buzbut now under linux ill go the nvidia route, too06:22
Quinn_Stormheh I'm stuck with an old matrox g450, decent gl 3d support, but that's about it06:23
buzmatrox used to have the best linux support06:23
buzbut they havent released any decent card for a looong time (unless you need 4 screens and stuf flike that)06:23
apokryphosheh06:23
Quinn_Stormwell this card is pretty old, but probably not that old.  I managed to get the tv-out working using matroxfb and have x set up to let that work alongside it06:23
buzi dont use tv out any more06:24
apokryphosDoes anyone recall that Linux program that allows you to create videos of your desktop? Used it many eons ago, and have forgotten the name.06:24

MindZEye[18:08]  <MindZEye> Perhaps there is the problem, as I also have an Athlon 64 and I have the same unsatisfied dependencies.07:12
apokryphos:P07:13
apokryphossorry, missed that.07:13
MindZEyeNo worries. :)07:13
Quinn_Stormhehe, I love my 512MB ram...stupid board won't let me put more in though, just gets all crashy and stuff on me, don't know why...windows won't even boot07:13
apokryphosThey'll likely do it soon.07:13
apokryphosQuinn_Storm: are you using different types of RAM?07:13
apokryphosPerhaps it's not supported07:13
Quinn_Stormhey, wait, wasn't there some kind of athlon problem on older athlon boards that caused large amounts of ram + agp to cause problems?07:13
Roeyapokryphos:  I couldn't find reference to amd64 in your /etc/apt/sources.list... are you sure that that's the right link??07:13
edulixI really don't need more ram, I just want to know hy I'm using so much swap :P07:13
apokryphosRoey: The link I posted above that; one sec.07:14
Quinn_Stormapokryphos: they are all the same as far as I know...do you know anything about a problem w/ agp and athlon systems or something? windows works fine till it loads its video driver...07:14
Roeyhttp://higgs.djpig.de/cgi-ubuntu/search_packages.pl?keywords=konq-plugins&searchon=names&subword=1&version=hoary&release=all07:14
Roeythat one?07:14
apokryphosYup07:14
Roeyok07:14
Roeyso it's not built for my arch then07:14
apokryphosQuinn_Storm: Sorry, no idea. But I know that some Motherboards support different RAM, but that all Memory sticks inside often have to be the same type.07:15
apokryphosRoey: precisely.07:15
Roeyapokyphos:  thanks for the link07:15
buzso when i buy an athlon64 i better stick to x86 ;-)07:15
apokryphosno worries07:15
buzor use gentoo ;-)07:15
Roeyapokryphos:  I hope it'll get there soon07:15
MindZEyeActually using Gentoo is worse, that's why I switched to Ubuntu.07:15
buzQuinn_Storm: what type of board have you got07:15
apokryphosI think it will, for PowerPC too, as one of the devs uses one.07:15
Quinn_Stormbuz: abit KT7A-Raid07:15
buzmhh weird07:16
buzmaybe the memory is bad?07:16
buzdid you try memtest?07:16
Quinn_Stormbuz: yeah, I booted from a gentoo cd w/ memtest86 on it and ran it for a while with no errors showing, as far as I know it completed a few passes07:16
Quinn_Stormbuz: that's all the gentoo cd is good for07:16
buzi never quite got gentoo running either07:16
buzmaybe i'll give it a chance when they finally (ifever) release their installer07:17
=== apokryphos is out: foood.
Quinn_Stormbuz: I just didn't feel like wasting all that time, heh, besides kubuntu has everything I want (xorg, kde3.4, debian-based, etc.)07:17
MindZEyeI have Gentoo running on an Athlon XP machine.  But with an Athlon 64 is just more pain than I ever wanted in a lifetime.07:17
buzQuinn_Storm: yeah same here07:17
buztho a few choice packages i miss07:17
Quinn_Stormbuz: well you might be able to find them in alternate repositories...make sure universe/multiverse are enabled, and add marrilat (somewhere on the wiki), and try apt-get.org to search07:18
buzMindZEye: then i wont try it07:18
buzQuinn_Storm: i did07:18
Quinn_Stormbuz: what packages?07:18
buzwanted to install klibido but it wants to use newer libidn than in ubuntu07:18
MindZEyeGentoo has better support for Java IMO, which is probably the only reason why I'd prefer it.07:18
Quinn_StormMindZEye: that's b/c java is non-Free07:18
buzjava works perfectly on my machine???07:19
Quinn_Stormbuz: he means that its well integrated in the system, and slightly easier to d/l07:19
MindZEyeQuinn_Storm: That's not my problem, so I don't see why it should be made my problem.07:19
Quinn_StormMindZEye: then go with gentoo, its your choice.07:19
buzMindZEye: ur using a debian distro07:19
buzthey have slightly twisted priorities07:19
buzat least mplayer and vlc are in universe07:19
MindZEyeYeah, it nearly meant I didn't got with Ubuntu, purely for that reason.07:20
MindZEyeLike there are many more Java packages in Gentoo for things like Netbeans/Eclipse.07:20
buzeclipse is freer than the gpl ever will be07:21
buzbut downloading it is pretty trivial07:21
buzthere are many somewhat stubborn people in debian related projects07:22
Quinn_Stormbuz: freer than the gpl?07:22
MindZEyeYeah, it's just the whole idea of having to do it manually each time a new release is available.  Rather than letting it be automagically dealt with like everything else.07:22
buzMindZEye: eclipse got its own auto updating facility07:22
buzQuinn_Storm: yeah, the CPL allows for commercial redistribution without source07:22
Quinn_Stormbuz: ewww, bsd-ish07:23
Roeyso07:23
=== buz is a bsd guy
=== Quinn_Storm is a gpl gal
=== Quinn_Storm smells a song in that somewhere.....
buzi'll never use linux on servers if i can help it07:23
edulixbuz: I trashed a bit with /etc/rc.*. could I have broken swap cleaning or something ? doesn't swapon clean itself the swap partitions it mounts?07:23
MindZEyebuz:  Yeah, but it makes more sense to have the package management deal with shit like auto updates.07:23
buzedulix: it should07:24
buzit's not like swap is a filesystem really07:24
edulixyeah :P07:24
Quinn_StormMindZEye: I agree with you there especially w/ the necessity of being root to really update an app07:24
buzi'd say that's a featur07:24
buzstops users from upgrading07:24
buznow the whole sudo stuff in kubuntu is slightly weird to me07:24
edulixI'll try to reboot init 2 and see how much swap is being used07:24
ataxici dont use that sudo stuff07:25
buzespecially because you can do sudo passwd ;-)07:25
ataxicdont see the point07:25
buzi only use kdesu for kpackage and synaptic07:25
ataxici added a root instead07:25
buzchosing packages is nicer in the gui than the cli07:25
=== MindZEye enabled the root user in about 15 minutes of installing Ubuntu and getting puzzled why he couldn't login as root.
buzyeah me too07:25
ataxicand kdesu for apps yeh07:25
buzi found it pretty weird07:25
ataxicbuz kynaptic is sweet yeh07:26
buzthen figured sudo would work and simply set a root pw with it07:26
=== ataxic is from slackware
buzkynaptic is pretty crappy if you ask me07:26
ataxicsame as synaptic07:26
buzkpackage and synaptic are much better07:26

Roeyataxic:  same here07:27
Quinn_Stormif you have to use gnomish/gtkish stuff, at least install the gtk-qt engine07:27
Roeyataxic:  yet I use gaim and xchat because they have logging that kopete and konqueror do not.07:27
buzi can't stand gnome either07:27
ataxicQuinn_Storm: yeh, exception is for gimp07:27
buzQuinn_Storm: i have 07:27
SeFoKumAwhere is directory of plugins for macromediaflash for konqueror?07:27
buzbut since yesterday, gtk-qt somehow doesnt work anymore07:27
ataxicgtk was written for gimp wasn't it07:28
buzyeah07:28
buzand it should NEVER EVER have been used for anything else07:28
MindZEyeKopete has logging.07:28
ataxicso lets keep it like that then07:28
buzi mean just look at gimp. possibly the worst ui ever.07:28
Quinn_Stormheh my exception is gaim07:28
