[12:49] yeah [12:49] unless you have custom kernel and missed that [12:50] and if it doesn't just work something pretty major is wrong? [12:50] and kubuntu is unlikely to ship with a custom kernel is it? [12:50] lol [12:50] by custom I meant not the one it ships with [12:51] thought as much [12:51] either my machine is weirder than Jacko [12:51] is it optical?... does it light up? [12:51] or something strange is happening [12:51] it's optical and it's not even lighting up anymore [12:51] at least, not one kubuntu starts to boot [12:52] same problem with another mouser I tried [12:52] try a diff usb port [12:52] usb optical mouse should light up even without drivers [12:52] tried them all [12:52] does anything come up in usbview?

I just got it now [12:57] probably lag induced by /exec -o dpkg -l [12:57] 3 minutes ago according to time stamp [12:59] ChrisH_: it should light up no matter what. cause that says power is going to usb, which should happen without any drivers or anything [12:59] ChrisH_: should be /dev/input/mice by default... [12:59] ChrisH_: your problem seems like faulty hardware. [12:59] I've just tried another mouse which light up briefly before going out again [12:59] and both these mice work on the laptop I'm using now [01:00] heh i would ask for your lsmod but that'd be quite the bitch w/o a mouse [01:00] you can turn on accessibility stuff which makes it a bit easier. [01:00] I used to do that in windows when I had a wireless keyboard and a wired mouse [01:00] the hardware was fine about 5/6 hours ago when I was running SuSE [01:00] hmm [01:01] ok [01:01] does it show up in lsusb? [01:01] or do you see any error messages output when you type tail dmesg [01:03] tail can't open 'dmesg' no such file opr directory [01:03] oh, sorry [01:03] just type dmesg [01:03] my bad [01:03] lsusb lists devices 1-4 but nothing on them [01:03] ah [01:03] dmesg should give you some insight, I think [01:04] usb might not be getting loaded correctly. [01:04] I don't know, honestly [01:05] mrmanic: I don't think anyone knows, it seems to be a really odd problem [01:05] even more odd that it would work in one distro and not another. especially considering it's something as basic as a mouse [01:06] ChrisH_: do you see the usb insertion event in dmesg? === shapord [~shapord@201.240.49.68] has joined #kubuntu [01:07] dmesg gives me lots of usb errors [01:07] mostly about things timin out [01:08] hmm [01:09] It seems liekly that there's some sort of kernel problem [01:09] yes [01:09] what kernel are you running?

[01:32] try the k7 kernel [01:32] well i'm running an AMD64 kernel on a AMD64 2800+ [01:32] and both ps/2 ports are working but dmesg | grep -i input only shows the keyboard and i know both of the mice i've tried work [01:33] i386 is the intel/amd architecture (486=486 -- 586=pentium2/pentiumPro -- 686=pentium3/athlon/etc) [01:33] oooh, you learn something new everyday [01:33] :) [01:33] to think I was a linux newbie until only 5 months ago and now I can talk jargon with the best of them :P [01:34] right, running a .deb file is as simple as clicking on it isn't it? [01:34] hah. the best way to learn is just grabbing as many distros (especially the smaller ones) and just getting them all setup the way you like, seeing all the differences. [01:34] i can't even get into x [01:35] I'm learning by having major problem like this and having to sort them out [01:35] adapt: that also takes a LOT of time. [01:35] so does sitting on irc :) [01:35] haha [01:35] so true [01:35] right, I'm off to try new kernal back soon [01:35] good luck [01:35] i've used debian, OpenBSD, tried FreeBSD didn't work, RH, Sourcemage, now Ubuntu [01:36] freebsd didnt work/ [01:36] ? [01:36] not on this system [01:36] wouldnt boot? [01:36] it booted but no ethernet support at all [01:36] ahh [01:36] i have an nforce3 chipset and i'm trying to get the system to detect the mouse as far as i know i have the newest amd64 kernel [01:36] i havent tried sourcemage since like the first version. i forgot about that one [01:36] and i'm lost [01:37] everything else come up fine? just no mouse? [01:37] and i'm stuck in cli mode because xserver will not load [01:37] ahah [01:37] ahh i mean === Japsu_ [~japsu@japsu.user] has joined #kubuntu [01:37] core input device error is the last error xserver gives me [01:38] thats the mouse for sure. look at the log /var/log/xorg??? [01:38] i have it set to /dev/psaux but dmesg doesn't even show the mouse and i've tried two different onces both of which i know work [01:38] is it a ps2 mouse? [01:38] dmesg | grep -i input, grep outputs input 1 keyboard [01:38] Could someone tell me what I just downloaded? The file is named "hoary-install-i386.iso" and the MD5 hash is 37e0570ca93ca283afcf8eb856518db1 which I haven't seen on any Kubuntu mirror and, when googled, gives no hits [01:38] is it usb or ps2 mous [01:39] ps2 [01:39] Can "Hoary" mean some other version than 5.04? [01:39] Any 5.xx? [01:39] hmm, ok my usb ports don't seem to recognise my usb key either [01:39] now I have problems trying to install x686 kernel [01:39] Drako60: ... you have an AMD64 w/ an nforce3 board, and you still have a ps2 mouse? :) [01:39] Japsu_: I think hoary is definitely 5.04 [01:40] adapt: yes [01:40] Japsu_: where did you download it from? [01:40] hey atleast its not serial mouse [01:40] bugger me it's nearly 1am [01:40] so much for revision :P [01:40] mrmanic: bittorrent IIRC.

[01:42] Japsu_: you should redownload [01:42] Japsu_: I think the final version was released in april [01:42] Japsu_: I'm pretty sure you downloaded a beta or RC [01:42] mrmanic: okay, so I have a beta or something like that [01:42] okay [01:42] I'm redownloading it then [01:43] too bad, I just downloaded that file from my server over a 256/256 ADSL... took *only* six hours >_< [01:43] ouch [01:43] is there any other logical way to transfer a file from a laptop without a floppy drive to a machine whose usb prts aren't working other than burning a whole CD for a 1.6MB file [01:44] heh, 6 hours is nothing [01:44] cdrw would be your best bet [01:44] I took over 10 hours on a 25kB DSL connection [01:45] i started dloading kubuntu when i got in here a few minutes ago... 6 minutes togo :) [01:45] anyway, I'm going to sleep about now, so re-downloading won't be a problem... it'll be ready when I wake up sometime in the afternoon [01:45] :D [01:45] looks like cdrw it's gotta be then [01:45] ok Japsu_. good luck. [01:45] ChrisH_: network? [01:45] i think I'll get some sleep too [01:45] ChrisH_: unless you have a hub and don't mind doing some manual routing. [01:46] ok. [01:46] I'll try the new kernel in the morning [01:46] I hope it works out, ChrisH_ [01:46] 6 hours trying to get a mouse to work is a bit excessive [01:46] there's a swedish mirror! heja sverige! \o/ [01:46] g'night folks, I'll no doubt be back later on to pester you all more [01:47] bittorrent isn't applicable right now and the main mirror would give me 4 KiB/s :D [01:47] ah, better. now it's my pipe that's limiting the transfer speed so I'm off to sleep === closure [~ubel@adsl-065-013-010-009.sip.asm.bellsouth.net] has joined #kubuntu [01:51] so [01:51] everytime i boot my sound balance is all the way to the left any ideas?

[03:27] my firefox doesnt [03:27] no, on kde [03:27] oh [03:27] peer, howd you stop it gunny? [03:27] i wish i knew what caused it [03:28] I have full gnome desktop environment installed do you? [03:28] no [03:28] nerp [03:28] only base gnome libs [03:28] for the gnome progs I run [03:28] that might be the difference they may be a library in gnome that firefox needs but doesnt have a dependency flag set [03:28] hmm [03:28] i hope you are right [03:28] hrmm [03:29] you'd think someone would have thought of that [03:29] so just apt-get install ubuntu-desktop? [03:29] NTolerance, yes [03:29] i'll try it [03:29] NT, you'll get a crapload of crap if you do that :p [03:29] but man [03:29] gnome is BIG [03:29] that's the thing [03:29] its just HD space lol [03:29] shrug [03:29] even without gnome, my install is now like 7GB [03:29] its also bandwidth :p [03:29] about 100 megs of debs [03:29] i ran deborphan and only found like a few packages that i didn't need [03:29] gunny ? gnome is more than that [03:29] unless the metapackage is small [03:29] more like 250. [03:30] which is not so bad at all [03:30] narg, it may be I never paid that close attention [03:30] how big are your installs of Kubuntu?

[03:52] NTolerance: wtf did you break?

[03:53] transgress: _wtf_ [03:53] just trying to fix stuff that doesn't work...other people are having the firefox issue [03:53] they arent on debian [03:53] what firefox issue is this?

[03:54] when you change wallpaper in kubuntu, firefox closes [03:54] but not for me [03:54] Diablo-D3: is this #debian? [03:54] sounds like a simple firefox bug [03:54] i upgraded firefox, no change [03:54] transgress: no, but it probably should be. [03:54] it seems the only thing I have doen differently is I have gnome installed too [03:54] Diablo-D3: do we look like we are using xfree? [03:54] until its fixed in ubuntu, dont change the wallpaper. [03:55] ok isntalling ubuntu-desktop now [03:55] i never had that problem with firefox in ubuntu... but i don't use firefox in kubuntu... [03:55] thanks for the help Diablo-D3 [03:55] i appreciate it [03:55] not until the binary doesn't require gnome [03:56] Mozilla-browser doesnt seem to require gnome [03:56] but its soooo bulky [03:56] why not just use konq? [03:56] want a nice qt based browser? Opera 8 is fast [03:56] i can't do without my firefox extensions [03:56] gunny, i like it personally [03:56] then port them to konq [03:56] gunny, mozilla that is [03:57] i actually got mozilla-browser [03:57] and i do use konq, but konq won't let me login to one particular site [03:57] and i have to login to it because it's my work site... [03:57] and i can't do my job w/o logging in... [03:57] konq wont log in to my bank either [03:57] file a bug report. [03:57] file a bug report.

[03:59] by then it wont be compliant again [04:00] yeah, ie6 is like 1995 vintage [04:00] at its core [04:00] it's not about hating mac... i don't know what the problem is with it... it always says something about resending the data and when i try it still doesn't log me in [04:00] mozilla will have 90$ marketshare by then rofl [04:00] er % [04:00] i hate it, because i like using the integrated shit in kde... [04:00] ninety bucks o' marketshare [04:00] gunny: it doesnt already? === sproingie snorts [04:01] not quite mozilla use is up quite a bit but I think its around 60% [04:01] most people use the browser that came with the system and never upgrade it [04:01] that means IE [04:01] true [04:01] I mean, I hate firefox and on, but go firefox! [04:01] sproingie: even when they cant view websites? [04:01] you hate firefox? [04:02] i love firefox, but i'm still not gonna use it until they redo the ubuntu binary [04:02] well, I dont hate hate it, but its defenetly no konq. [04:02] Diablo-D3: they just assume the website doesn't work, and move on [04:02] I like opera but I hate the banner adds and I won't pay 39 dollah for a web browser [04:02] konq is fast and sleek and renders quite a lot of sites correctly [04:02] gunny: bittorrent [04:02] sproingie: but when thats around 40% of the net? [04:02] what? STEAL software? [04:02] the ads in opera are pretty unobtrusive, and you already get quite a bit of vertical screen space [04:02] nah [04:02] is safari based on konq? [04:02] yes transgress [04:02] but i'm not inclined to pay $40 for opera. $25 maybe [04:02] safari is based on khtml.

[04:05] i never ran IE on windows... i'd run it long enough to install firefox... [04:05] sproingie did you ever try the kde build on top of cygwin/x? [04:06] MS talked about integrating IE on the desktop and file manager, and all they managed to do was to have explorer.exe and iexplore.exe embed each other as OLE controls [04:06] and POORLY at that [04:06] gunny: nope... and for some reason the binary gets pissed [04:06] konq does some real integration [04:07] my integration in konq is borked opening some files I have to open in new window ALOT [04:07] i jest use mozilla :0) [04:08] Cowlike: kde in cygwin i last tried about a year ago. crashy.

[04:09] transgress, installed without a hitch in my /home directory [04:09] bbl [04:09] msys is nice except it doesnt interop very well with windows apps [04:10] and its faster to load than th eubuntu package [04:10] sproingie there are some weirdnesses with links and paths but overall i'd much prefer using bash and vi for quick edits. i truly miss the unix utils without it [04:10] tends to block foreverif you pipe the output of a windows exe to stdin on msys [04:11] really? you can't pipe windows console output? [04:11] i like how it rewrites paths tho, so you can do "notepad /c/apps/foo/bar.ini" [04:11] tho i've seen it screw up on urls occasionally while trying to be "smart" [04:12] Cowlike: you can't really mix msys and non-msys apps on the same pipeline. i forget exactly which way it breaks [04:13] cygwin has better interop. it's just slow [04:14] and using rsync for my backups is just plain useful too :) === chavo [~chavo@202.sub-70-212-53.myvzw.com] has joined #kubuntu === pussfeller [~todd@t1-rtc-woodlawn.rtcol.com] has joined #kubuntu === Cowlike is now known as Cowlike-away [04:23] Riddell, is net install going to be an option on breezy? === claydoh [~claydoh@65.99.186.180] has joined #kubuntu === nate_ [~nate@c66.168.31.134.mad.wi.charter.com] has joined #kubuntu === shad0w1e [~shad0w1e@ool-182ede79.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:33] anyone know how to get XINERAMA working?

[05:06] prolly not unless its standard [05:06] I can get the debian download it seems [05:06] it does not come with standard kubuntu install [05:06] yes [05:07] since u wud be compiling from source. [05:07] 4.2 version is what is needed? [05:07] Ahh wait another thing that u can do [05:07] u can get devel releases [05:07] i can just dl the deb and do a dpkg -i [05:08] the deb is old [05:08] 4.2 [05:08] try the devel [05:08] 4.3pre2 [05:08] just download it and use it no compiling is needed. [05:08] uhmm thats not avail for debian [05:08] delete it later on if u don't like it [05:08] not needed. it is standard java app [05:08] only 4.2.0 I think [05:09] does not require deb registration to run it [05:09] ok I'll get the pre2 then [05:09] download- extract- run [05:09] k [05:09] cant I just dl the jar? [05:10] well it has some cool stuff like macros, syntax highligting stuff [05:10] not very big to download [05:11] so I can just dl this to my home directory and run it there? [05:11] yes [05:13] well I wonder where it put the files?

[06:42] im not at all sure what renice does [06:43] kkathman, he told you, it allows you to alter the priority of a running process (although non-root users and only decrease it) [06:43] ohhh priority I see [06:43] man renice [06:43] sorry my IRC window got caught behind another window hehe === kkathman remembers to make sure he has less than 30 windows open at any time :) [06:44] 30 per desktop?

[09:13] from Karamba's sysinfo [09:13] wait a min [09:15] what about when you do top when karamba is running? [09:15] do you get similar info from top? [09:16] dun know :P never checked..but then other things take time to start [09:16] what are you running karamba for? [09:16] are you doing it for an osx style dock? [09:16] if so, you might try kooldock. [09:16] nah [09:17] oko [09:17] er, ok [09:17] I don't understand one thing...when GNOME starts KDE apps it takes some time but starts with their default theme [09:18] but when KDE starts GNOME apps it doesn't take any time but just start with no theme thingie :P [09:18] you might need to install the qt-gtk converter thingy [09:19] hmm...if that will work...i'll thankful of yours ;) [09:20] well, that should make it so that gtk apps get loaded with the qt theme (or a close approximation) [09:21] mrmanic: do you know if there is a way to adjust the icon spacing on the desktop? [09:21] aham thanks [09:22] kkathman: no, I looked around but couldn't find anything.

[01:18] both, I think, mainly video [01:19] ahh ok [01:19] see, you probably have the xine engine on there already, but not all the proprietary codecs or wrappers, whatever [01:20] how are you today, Tm_T? [01:20] mplayer [01:20] mplayer is all i need [01:20] mplayer depends on an engine like xine, doesn't it?

[04:54] n/p [04:54] and O'Reilly makes a great book for Apache [04:54] i just see too damn many lusers running stuff they'd better not be running [04:54] the WAMP guys are the worst of them all [04:54] buz I do agree with that [04:54] i guess i shouldn't be running Linux at all :D [04:55] it's not wrong per se [04:55] for most apps it's just fine [04:55] but for security sensitive stuff like servers, users should know what they're doing [04:55] i see your point [04:55] personally, i don't compile firefox from sources, either ;) [04:55] that was gonna be my next question [04:55] I worry a little at comments like that because one of the goals of the entire Linux/F00S movement is to demystify it so that people wont be afraid to try it [04:56] but even so, an easy installer can still help experienced users going faster, then they can configure stuff later [04:56] the same sticks for windows just as much [04:56] sure, you can set up exchange with 10 clicks [04:56] and 10min later it will be owned [04:56] get set up faster, rather [04:56] if we perpetuate the "difficult-ness" of Linux etc, it will just drive them further to M$ :( [04:56] you are right kkathman [04:56] Linux desktops have come a long way....it's been a good thing, but they're not there yet [04:57] how do i restart apache without rebooting ? === _max is now known as akrano [04:57] linux ain't difficult for most stuff. or say windows ain't easy for servers, either [04:57] apachectl restart [04:57] NTolerance: correct, and it has been dominated by the "elitists" for a long time which tends to scare your average user away [04:57] windows servers are a PITA IMHO [04:57] exactly [04:57] we have an NT4 box here and i really hate it [04:57] personally, i refuse to touch any windows servers [04:57] that stuff breaks for no reason at all [04:57] i dislike it when the elitists don't support robust desktop linuxes [04:58] i'm all for robust desktop linuxes [04:58] but not for dummy servers [04:58] properly firewalled desktop linux is probably a lot better than XPee [04:58] speaking of firewalls [04:59] i'm running Kubuntu here on a laptop which is usually on it's own private network, but say if i go to an airport or cafe and hook up to an unprotected WAP, do i really need a firewall with Kubuntu? [04:59] im in love with the alloy kde style [04:59] i'm in love with baghira [04:59] i guess it wouldn't hurt [04:59] wouldn't hurt, but is it worth it? [04:59] if not, i don't bother [04:59] it mostly depends on what services are running on your machine [04:59] the only server type service i have is ssh [04:59] i think [04:59] if everything is running on 127.0.0.1 that's ok [04:59] actually [05:00] you sure? kubuntu got quite a few running by default [05:00] i do have a samba share, passworded with write access [05:00] to only my home dir [05:00] don't haxor me :( [05:00] at that point i'd probably do firewall it on unknown networks === carambol [~karambol_@h90238.upc-h.chello.nl] has joined #kubuntu [05:00] or just shutdown samba [05:00] NTolerance, that wasn't very intelligent to say [05:00] hi how i get opera as a item in K-menu [05:01] ?

[05:03] if Opera works, that probably works for kmenu command as well [05:03] /etc/init.d/samba restart [05:03] /etc/init.d/samba stop will stop it as well?

[11:10] temp i think [11:11] try 'em both, see how they work [11:11] k [11:11] you will have to stop torsmo with the "kill" command, it will output it's process id to the terminal [11:11] if you want to reload the config === kikov_ [~kikov@158.Red-83-42-173.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:12] how can i make root to be able to login into the graphical system?

[11:17] it just popped back up [11:17] weird [11:17] uhm why would I want disable my desktop icons for one app ? [11:17] hehe [11:18] it seems that gdesklets has much more applets than superkaramba [11:18] as far as i know torsmo doesn't play well with desktop icons period, i could be wrong [11:18] Tm_T could confirm [11:18] sarom go to kde-look.org they have 100's of superkaramba themes [11:18] it's a tradeoff between low cpu usage and desktop icons i suppose [11:18] oooooh!!! [11:19] Im going there right now! :) [11:19] NTolerance: well I have the memory to run sk and its non-flickering :) [11:19] NTolerance: seems that torsmo is not well written, no need to update EVERYTHING each time [11:20] :P [11:20] memory isn't a problem for me either, it's the constant CPU usage with superkaramba [11:20] can't steal my precious cycles from ZSNES [11:20] I see some screenshots of people having their background as a console... is this possible? [11:21] well I dont know, Im sitting here with 5% CPU and running 2 Superkaramba themes [11:21] hmm [11:21] i was getting more like 10% [11:21] actually less sometimes [11:21] on my P4-M 1.7 [11:21] 3-4% [11:21] ahhh I have an AMD Semperon 2500+ [11:21] NTolerance: what?

[11:23] stupid kaffeine eating cpu cycles [11:23] NTolerance: or run torsmo in windowed mode [11:23] ugly then [11:23] gkrellm!

[11:26] pussfeller: eh, torsmo == eyecandy? [11:26] pussfeller: torsmo != eyecandy ! [11:26] sarom I created a directory in my home dir called karamba-themes [11:26] aha,,, I'll do the same :) [11:27] time to head home [11:27] bbl [11:27] torsmo = eyecandy if you like to blink alot :) [11:27] hehe [11:28] Well, rub candy on your eyes and of course you'll blink a lot. [11:29] if your lids don't stick together. [11:30] I was gonna try superkaramba, then I remembered how much a pain gdesklets were, and figured I wouldn't bother [11:30] they're sort of similar, aren't they? [11:30] hey smouche :) [11:31] kkathman, did you ever get opera working with java? [11:31] not yet smouche [11:31] how is everybody? [11:31] I gotta figure out how to link java to the plugins somehow [11:31] I don't think opera is ready for kubuntu prime time. [11:31] hmm kmail is havingtrouble with localmail can't lock my /var/local mail file [11:31] smouche: I like it cuz its so dang fast, but some of those little things kill me [11:32] kkathman I have no problems with java in opera, what seems to be the trouble? [11:32] gunny: I am trying to get Opera to recognize where the java plugin is do you know how to do that? [11:32] opera doesnt use plugins just tell opera where you java ninary is [11:32] I have the same problem, gunny. [11:33] er binary that is [11:33] gunny ok...whats the binary then? [11:33] like /usr/java/bin or wherever [11:33] ahh ok [11:33] hmmm, I wonder where -- lol [11:33] checking... [11:33] and where do you do that? [11:33] in Opera that is [11:33] in the preferences advanced [11:33] let me re-install opera real quick and do a step by step brb [11:34] yah I dont see advanced [11:34] gunny, that's very kind of you!

[11:39] im in 7.54 [11:39] get opera 8 [11:39] kkathman, I have the beta [11:39] opera 8 is out and very sweet [11:39] see I have 7.54 [11:39] hmh [11:39] upgrade man upgrade :) [11:39] kkathman: you gonna use torsmo? [11:39] but I find it hard to believe that opera prior to 8 couldn't do java... [11:40] there must be a setting somewhere... [11:40] Tm_T no [11:40] anyway, kkathman, gunny is right, version 8 is nice. [11:40] ok [11:40] looking at a freemind map right now. [11:40] cool. [11:40] did you guyz just get that from the Opera site then right? [11:40] yes [11:40] there is an ubuntu package [11:41] Now, I have to get the paths right for the multimedia plugins in there too. [11:41] actually its the same debian sarge package but who's keeping score [11:41] heh heh -- I didn't realize there was an ubuntu package! [11:41] that probably would have simplified things. [11:41] like I said its the same debian sarge package lol [11:41] kkathman: hmm... why? :) [11:42] I wonder if I have to uninstall operal 7 [11:42] hmm [11:42] and how?? [11:43] maybe that dpkg -r???

[11:44] kkathman: flicker? [11:44] ok gunny will do [11:44] Tm_T yes BAD flicker [11:44] kkathman: use doublebuffer [11:44] Tm_T nah Im good [11:44] I mean enable it =) [11:44] I installed 8 over a beta version of 8 with no worries [11:44] kkathman: I found (super)karamba too heavy === Kisain [~Kisain@24-177-160-171.dhcp.mrqt.mi.charter.com] has joined #kubuntu [11:45] and I really like the way torsmo appears [11:45] ts2_client_rc2_2032.tar.bz2 <-----how do i install this file === ztonzy [~ztonzy@ztonzy.artist.blender] has joined #kubuntu [11:46] anyone know? === Diablo-D3 [diablo@65.99.190.138] has joined #kubuntu [11:46] Kisain: probably "tar -xjf ts2_client_rc2.*; cd ts2_client_rc2.*/; ./configure; make; sudo make install" [11:46] is that all one command?

[11:48] kkathman, you will love this version of opera! [11:48] let me check, just a sec [11:48] smouche: complete with spyware [11:48] /usr/java/jre1.5.0_02/lib/i386 [11:49] worked fine after restarting opera. [11:49] mikerobi, known spyware, or are you just basing that on the fact that it's adware? [11:50] nopw [11:50] nope [11:50] cant see that freemind page :( [11:50] I've used the adware versions of opera before, and it always seemed to play fair.

[11:52] yeah [11:52] that's odd, kkathman. Hmmm -- did you let opera confirm that path? Maybe it should be different in your installation. === nizamo [~nizamo@cust112-5.netcabo.co.mz] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [11:52] validate the java path its going to be /lib/i386 something [11:52] kkathman, click on "validate java path" [11:52] very cool feature [11:53] Kisain: eh, you needed some help? [11:53] yeah, gunny. it's great, it even suggested the most likely candidate for me.
