kkathmanhey again, all :)05:01
kkathmanzabu: I run kubuntu and it runs firefox fine05:01
kkathmanzabu: But I'll admit that Opera runs a bit better05:02
randabisopera loads pages very slowly for me and I don't know why05:17
kkathmanrandabis: Gee even with only 512MB of memory it was easily the fastest browser for me, Konqueror was nearly as fast05:22
randabiskkathman: It was fast for me when I used it on windows a long time ago. I've never understood why it runs poorly for me in kubuntu05:23
randabisthe program itself is very responsive05:23
randabisit just seems to have a large delay in page loading05:23
randabisit seems similar to when IPv6 is enabled in firefox05:24
randabisI've tried playing with numerous settings, etc with little success05:24
kkathmanrandabis: I noticed a little slow down when I try certain themes with Opera05:25
zabufirefox just goes 'blink' and dies05:25
randabisWell my latest tests have been with vanilla opera 8 from the site05:25
randabispreviously I tried with opera 705:26
kkathmanFirefox did run poorly when I had 512mb ram, but seems peppier now with 1gb05:26
randabisMy mileage for web browsing has been best with the latest firefox 1.0.3 from mozilla.org05:26
randabisI have low latency dual channel DDR400 512MB ram05:27
kkathmanrandabis: I think Im still at 1.0.205:27
randabiskonqueror comes in second05:27
randabiswell third if you count mozilla suite05:27
randabiskkathman: yeah, I don't use the ubuntu builds because they aren't very good imho05:28
kkathmanfirefox takes a little more time to load, but the performance on loading sites is pretty comparable, tho maybe a tad bit slower than Opera05:28
randabisthe official build from mozilla.org has always worked better for me05:28
kkathmanwelli downloaded both FF and Opera from their respective sites.05:28
randabisgood :)05:29
randabisI would consider using opera again if I could figure out a fix for the problem with delayed page loading05:29
randabisonce the delay ends the page loads quickly05:29
kkathmanhmm...thats a stumper05:30
kkathmanoccasionally I get that with Opera also05:30
randabisYeah I don't understand why it happens05:30
kkathmanyeah I used to think it would be all my virus checks under Windows...but got none on my Linux05:31
randabisman, I could go for some orchata right now05:33
kkathmanorchata?05:34

thechrisi need to change my resolution above 640x480, what file does kubuntu use for this?06:14
incubiithechris, kubuntu uses the Xorg xserver, you can edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf06:15
incubiibut you should be able to change the resolution through the kcontrol centre06:16
thechrisit only does 320 or 64006:16

kkathmanthings just dont look as crisp in browsing07:01
incubiibut you can turn on sub pixel AA07:01

kkathmanis that an apt pkg?07:01
incubiithere was someone in here that installed some adobe font pack as well thats meant to be nice07:01

incubiithe subpixel rendering that you can configure in kcontrol was enough for me07:02
incubiiim confident that advances with xorg and freetype will improve them greatly07:05

MichaelDiederichi have a short question: In the moment i use debian unstable and i think, i want to switch to (k)unbutu. I only have a limited traffic, but i have a access to an debian apt server. So how many pakets are equil?07:55
kkathmanId suggest installing ubuntu, then apt-getting the kubuntu-desktop07:57
kkathmanbut I have no idea how many packets07:57
MichaelDiederichyes, i thought so..07:57
MichaelDiederichsome i can get in the university07:57
kkathmanyou can get a download of ubuntu from the download site..then everything else is apt-get07:58
MichaelDiederichand mainly debian pakets?07:58
kkathmanits a good CD's worth07:58
kkathmanMichaelDiederich: well they arent just one for one Debian pkgs, but the methodology is the same07:58
kkathmanits a very fast install actually07:59
kkathmanthe download takes time tho07:59
kkathmanyou can request a free CD07:59
MichaelDiederichso it would be "hoary" and ubuntu-5.04-install-i386.iso ?08:00
MichaelDiederichfor a 58608:00
MichaelDiederichgee, 68608:00
kkathmanyes its an x8608:00
MichaelDiederichwell, just found kubuntu-5.04-install-i386.iso08:01
kkathmanbut I'd still do the hoary install, which will setup gnome, then do the apt-get install kubuntu-desktop08:01

NTolerancescript didn't fix the problem04:32

NTolerancei didn't do a dist-upgrade04:32
NTolerancei was trying to install klibido04:32

NTolerancehrm04:39
kkathmanIf its not a tremendous amount of problem, try reinstalling with just the hoary ubuntu, then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, that way you always have a good alternate desktop04:40
NTolerancecould i just boot to a terminal and do apt-get reinstall kubuntu-desktop ?04:40
kkathmanNTolerance: you can try that, sure, but since you didnt apt-get the first time, I dont think it will do any good to apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop04:41
kkathmanbut then I've never tried it either04:41
NTolerancewell04:41
NToleranceseeing as how i might end up going back to unbuntu/gnome....04:41
NTolerancedo most kde apps run fine under gnome?04:41
kkathmanNTolerance:  I think...that if you tried to reinstall k-d  it would just come up and give you messages that its at the current version04:42

NTolerancehrmm05:03
NTolerancedunno about that05:03
Imrahilkkathman, why do you recommend not using the kubuntu install method (from install cd)? It has been said by jriddell that it is functionally equivalent to just apt-get kubuntu-desktop05:06
NTolerancehe said that if you install with the ubuntu cd that you already have all the gnome/gtk stuff05:07
NToleranceyou're inevitably going to be running a gnome program or two anyways05:07
Imrahilcorrect, but installing kubuntu then apt-get gnome-desktop gets you to the same point no?05:07
NTolerancenot sure05:08

AlfonsVHHi guys; my sound card doesn't work under Kubuntu. When I start any live CD based on Knoppix, the sound DOES work; but Kubuntu doesn't detect any cards. It's a Compaq standard PnP card (I'll watch for the exact type nr. if you like). Any suggestions?07:34

=== gnumdk [~gnumdk@ANantes-252-1-17-97.w82-126.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #kubuntu
AlfonsVHI'm a newbie; see07:47
BlissexAlfonsVH: you have to figure out which specific driver you need and then add it to '/etc/modules'.07:47
amichaiNTolerance: ati07:47
BlissexAlfonsVH: however Ubuntu as a rule should do that automatically for you, if this is not happening it is because the drivers you have were released before your sound chipset and therefore dont support it.07:48
BlissexAlfonsVH: probably Knoppix has more recent drivers so it they match your chipset.07:48
BlissexAlfonsVH: what you can do is to upgrade your ALSA and kernel packages to be more recent in that case.07:49
AlfonsVHBlissex; I don't think so, the live CD I used is allmost 2 years old and my Kubuntu version less than 2 months07:49
AlfonsVHamichai; how do you mean, a b or c?07:49
NToleranceok07:50
NTolerancehold on amichai 07:50
amichaiAlfonsVH: not sure. i thought there was a code for differen kde menu according to what the distro uses, such kubuntu uses kmenu a and susue uses kmenu suse07:51
AlfonsVHBlissex; there are no Compaq sound-cards listed on the ALSA website!! Since it works under Knoppix, I think it is supported though. Is there any universal driver or module?07:51
AlfonsVHoh amichai, I don't know 'bout ghat07:51
AlfonsVH* that07:52
BlissexAlfonsVH: I think you really need to read that troubleshooting section.07:52
AlfonsVHI did, Blissex; but if I try the commands listed, it doesn't work (e.g. alsaconf)07:52
BlissexAlfonsVH: perhaps reread more carefully...07:53
amichaiAlfonsVH: so its probably nonsense07:53
NToleranceamichai, 07:54
NToleranceback up your xorg.conf07:54
NToleranceand add this to the "device" section07:55
NToleranceOption          "backingstore"              "true"07:55
NToleranceOption "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true" 07:55
NTolerancereboot and see if the you have the options07:55
AlfonsVHBlissex; if I understand the troubleshoot section correctly; there should be a "/proc/asound/" folder when the sound-stuff is compiled into the kernel; but there isn't such a folder!07:55

whiskersit sure is nice to see glom connecting....i never thought that was going to happen08:48
oshwhiskers: Good news indeed.08:49
whiskersosh, yes great news for kde and gnome.....but bad news for apache...they need to get a threaded version out that is consistent with NPLT in libc608:49
whiskersosh, maybe the acronym is backwards...but something along the lines of Native Posix Linux Threads08:50
whiskersosh, so the free Linux Desktop and Server can kick Berkeley's butt08:51
oshwhiskers, or else? Won't apace run if glom/kexi/knoda is installed?08:51
whiskersosh, apache died completely when i installed libc6 with NPTL compilation to get this database stuff working08:52
whiskersosh, the apache2-mfm-dev was a non-threaded version and it died completely...08:52
whiskersosh, there is a threaded version underway...but synaptic will not let you get it because of missing dependencies08:53
whiskersosh, so i will just go compile it later...i am very tired just to report these hopeful findings08:54
oshwhiskers: Hmm, that's bad. I've got to reboot to fetch an iso to install kubuntu properly. Back later. (Fscking annoying that /home is 50MB to small for an iso or that the livecd can't be used to install the system from).08:54

Anlarswitch it to be left handed from the control center?11:18
