| kay | I am running 2 machines crossgraded and one from scratch | 12:02 |
| bergfloh | Diablo-D3: hda1 is a fresh ext3 with kubuntu | 12:02 |
| Diablo-D3 | I wanted the pure wholesome vitaman D goodness that is ubuntu | 12:02 |
| kay | Barely differences, apt rocks | 12:02 |
| Diablo-D3 | bergfloh: try grabbing a new ubuntu cd | 12:02 |
| bergfloh | Diablo-D3: i could try a boot disk (floppy) but i'm so lazy ;-) | 12:03 |
| Diablo-D3 | bergfloh: like, a really new one, and see if the bug is still there | 12:03 |

| R0bNyc | Linux lacks a lot of stuff windows doesnt vice-versa | 12:04 |
| bergfloh | Diablo-D3: i also have a few systems full-time linux, whatever full-time means -> 365 days up a year? 3 years running... lol | 12:04 |
| Diablo-D3 | I find that windows lacks too much stuff to be used | 12:04 |
| transgress | anyone know where amarok keeps it's file info? it keeps giving me an error, but i can't find a way to clear the item that's causing the problem off the playlist | 12:04 |
| transgress | err collection | 12:04 |
| R0bNyc | only if that wine or crossoffice crap worked | 12:04 |
| Diablo-D3 | like a decent window manager and desktop environment | 12:04 |
| Diablo-D3 | and a good gcc port | 12:04 |
| Diablo-D3 | its also missing native X | 12:04 |
| R0bNyc | lol | 12:04 |
| kay | Heh, Kubuntu dropped to only 24th on distrowatch | 12:04 |
| R0bNyc | yes linux is more powerful | 12:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | oh, and it doesnt have a good firewall either | 12:05 |
| R0bNyc | Diablo-D3, lol i dont need 1 | 12:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | and it sucks at packet routing | 12:05 |
| R0bNyc | ok thats geeky stuff now how about desktop | 12:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | kay: Im not even sure why they even count kubuntu as a seperate distro | 12:05 |
| kay | they do | 12:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | its not | 12:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | R0bNyc: yes, yes it is. | 12:05 |
| bergfloh | R0bNyc: it's a different world. both have their right to exist. take the best of both worlds an be happy! | 12:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | kde > windows | 12:05 |
| R0bNyc | yea | 12:06 |
| kay | You know, Windows is good at what it's good at. | 12:06 |
| R0bNyc | dual-boot | 12:06 |
| Diablo-D3 | kay: yeah I know. I was thinking about emailing them to request that they merge the two | 12:06 |
| kay | I just don't have any use for it anymore. | 12:06 |
| Diablo-D3 | kay: because you cant even count half the kubuntu boxen out there, most started as ubuntu, and apt-got installed kubuntu-desktop | 12:06 |

| kay | Diablo-D3: That's not the deal. It is interest. For Ubuntu there is a lot more than Kubuntu | 12:07 |
| kay | Maybe with Breezy it will reverse | 12:07 |
| Diablo-D3 | kay: of course, but what Im saying is that its the same damn distro | 12:07 |
| kay | Diablo-D3: Well, it was announced and stuff, I even downloaded an iso of it, and now you say it is not different :p | 12:08 |
| luke | it is the distro, it's stupid they have different names for the two. fedora comes with many desktops, they don't change the name of fedora just because you prefer a different desktop | 12:09 |
| kay | I am thinking of my installations as Kubuntu | 12:09 |
| Diablo-D3 | I think of my installations as kubuntu as well | 12:09 |
| Diablo-D3 | one started its life as debian sid, the other as ubuntu | 12:10 |
| transgress | i think of mine as pornfinder | 12:10 |
| kay | Fedora and Ubuntu are exactly different in that one aspect. Support only one thing and do that good | 12:10 |
| kay | is the Ubuntu thing, Fedora contains (like Debian) as much as possible | 12:10 |
| Diablo-D3 | the thing, though, is that kubuntu doesnt even have its own repo | 12:11 |
| kay | It's through meta packages only, that's right (and a good thing) | 12:12 |
| kay | But then UserLinux would be Debian which is not true | 12:12 |
| Tm_T | hm | 12:12 |
| Tm_T | Debian <3 | 12:12 |
| kay | what? | 12:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | you know why ubuntu isnt debian? | 12:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | because it has its own repo. | 12:13 |
| Tm_T | and so on | 12:13 |

| Tm_T | kay: I think so | 12:19 |
| transgress | kay: not the 386 kernel... but the one that is actually for your proc will | 12:19 |

| luke | I've never been into swap with 512. half of my 512 thats being used is cache | 12:19 |

| transgress | luke: is it in your fstab? cat /etc/fstab and see | 12:24 |
| _nate | it'll help for threaded programs | 12:24 |
| transgress | morten: sudo apt-get install superkaramba | 12:24 |
| _nate | but really won't affect non-threaded programs | 12:24 |
| morten | seems to easy :P | 12:24 |
| _nate | at least thats what i hear | 12:24 |
| transgress | morten: nope... then you just store the themes somewhere and then use superkaramba to load the theme | 12:25 |
| kay | Well, KDE should about always run something | 12:25 |
| morten | ... Think that will be the hard part.. | 12:25 |
| morten | have absoloutly no idea what to do :) | 12:25 |
| transgress | i am still wanting to know if i have to reinstall things because i'm changing my kernel image | 12:25 |
| luke | transgress, theres a swap partition there, but it isn't mounted | 12:25 |
| transgress | mkswap /dev/thatpartition | 12:25 |
| transgress | luke: if shit starts breaking suddenly then something is terribly wrong | 12:26 |
| kay | transgress: I would be disappointed if that were the case | 12:26 |
| _nate | transgress: i'm concerned about it in my case too | 12:26 |
| transgress | kay: my main concern is the fglrx module for my ati card... it took an act of god to get it working | 12:26 |
| _nate | transgress: but i figure if it doesn't specify a kernel in the package, then forget it | 12:26 |
| transgress | well i think fglrx might | 12:26 |
| kay | transgress: Is it really needed, I am about willing to believe, I didn't do it and still use gflrx | 12:27 |
| transgress | k | 12:27 |
| transgress | is what really needed? | 12:27 |
| kay | But who knows, I don't really do 3D, may not be accelerated or so | 12:27 |
| transgress | kay: fglrxinfo ... if it says mesa then it isn't... if it says ati then it is | 12:28 |
| luke | no problems transgress, where should my swap be mounted? and how can I set it to mount at startup? | 12:28 |
| transgress | i play unreal and my clan is happy to have me back | 12:28 |
| transgress | luke: it should have mounted if it is in fstab, unless noauto is listed next to it | 12:28 |
| kay | ah... i am not into gaming | 12:28 |
| transgress | luke: you don't mount it... you just do mkswap /dev/swappartition | 12:28 |
| transgress | swappartition being what was listed in fstab | 12:29 |
| transgress | and hope to god nothing else somehow started using that space | 12:29 |
| luke | hmm I did mkswap, didn't do a thing | 12:29 |
| transgress | bleh i had to do custom partitions... need a /boot and could not for the life of me allow 2.7 gigs of swap | 12:30 |
| luke | it's not mounted, the filesystem is swap, and the options are just sw | 12:30 |
| transgress | hmm | 12:30 |
| transgress | wait maybe it's swapon /dev/swappartition | 12:30 |
| transgress | or something | 12:30 |
| transgress | let me look | 12:30 |
| _nate | transgress: you know that there's a repo with the fglrx on it, makes installing it and getting it running a snap | 12:31 |
| _nate | transgress: and I can play wolfenstein on it | 12:31 |
| transgress | _nate: i used it... still took an act of god... something was causing problems | 12:31 |
| transgress | luke: yeah it's swapon | 12:32 |
| luke | ok I'll try that | 12:32 |
| _nate | transgress: odd | 12:33 |
| luke | yay swap! | 12:34 |
| transgress | is there an OSS voice chat client? | 12:34 |
| luke | will my swap turn on automatically whenever I boot? | 12:35 |
| transgress | it should | 12:35 |
| luke | ok | 12:35 |

| Ixion83 | the slower... | 01:27 |
| transgress | bleh | 01:27 |
| transgress | guess my mic is broken | 01:27 |
| morten | I'm out - May the force be with you ....:D | 01:27 |
| luke | cya | 01:27 |
| Ixion83 | Why Kubuntu is not optimized i686 ???? | 01:27 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ixion83: because it is. | 01:28 |
| _nate | uh-oh, my desktop just went all weird | 01:28 |
| _nate | it changed a bunch of colors | 01:28 |
| _nate | holy crap, this is messed up | 01:29 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ixion83: gcc produces the same results for -march=686 and what it uses now for ubuntu 99% of the time | 01:29 |
| Ixion83 | ubuntu package are on i386 | 01:29 |
| Ixion83 | not i686 | 01:29 |
| Ixion83 | :( | 01:29 |
| Diablo-D3 | see above comment. | 01:29 |
| Ixion83 | I'm sorry but i386 code is more slower than i686 | 01:30 |
| Diablo-D3 | and they may say i386, but that doesnt mean they are compiled for i386 | 01:30 |
| Diablo-D3 | they use -march=i486 -mtune=pentium now iirc | 01:30 |
| Ixion83 | All my distrib i686 are more speed than i386 | 01:30 |
| _nate | holy cow, i think i686 just messed up my display like crazy | 01:30 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ixion83: and thats bullshit, and we both know that. | 01:30 |
| Tm_T | ehh | 01:30 |
| _nate | i don't know what to do | 01:30 |
| transgress | _nate: how so? | 01:31 |
| _nate | transgress: ummm, the background is funky colors | 01:31 |
| _nate | transgress: if I move the window it gets filled with pink | 01:31 |
| Tm_T | haha | 01:31 |
| _nate | transgress: all effects are messed up | 01:31 |
| Ixion83 | Diablo-D3, there is enormous different of speed between a package i386 and i686 | 01:31 |
| Diablo-D3 | uh | 01:31 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ixion83: there isnt. | 01:31 |
| Ixion83 | you can't say other thing | 01:31 |
| _nate | i think the nvidia drivers might not be optimized for 686 | 01:32 |
| _nate | ugh | 01:32 |
| Diablo-D3 | _nate: they use a lot of runtime selected hand tuned assembly | 01:32 |
| _nate | can someone please help me trouble-shoot this? | 01:32 |

| Diablo-D3 | control-alt-backspace restarts X when you screw it up | 01:34 |
| _nate | yeah, i didn't screw it up afaik | 01:34 |
| _nate | unless nvidia drivers don't mesh with 686 | 01:35 |
| Diablo-D3 | for the record, nvidia drivers suck | 01:35 |
| _nate | ha | 01:35 |
| Diablo-D3 | mainly because they don't care about linux | 01:35 |
| luke | I have 686 my nvidia drivers are fine | 01:35 |
| transgress | don't listen to diablo | 01:35 |
| _nate | brb | 01:36 |
| Diablo-D3 | yeah, nvidia stuff works on some machines fine | 01:36 |
| Tm_T | luke: here the same | 01:36 |

| === _nate finally has it fixed, w00t! :) | ||
| transgress | yeah i can't remember who he said that too... that wasn't even the part that pissed me off... it was that he said that it would break his system by even trying | 01:46 |
| _nate | man, everything broke when kde 3.4 started | 01:46 |
| transgress | i had to compile my first kernel about 10 times before i got it right... never broke my system... and he starts trying to cover up his bullshit... | 01:46 |
| transgress | "oh lilo will eat the old kernel" | 01:47 |
| transgress | as penn and teller would say "BULLSHIT" | 01:47 |

| _nate | maybe it was some of that addon stuff | 01:51 |
| _nate | and it broke my taskbar | 01:51 |
| _nate | and all my settings were shot | 01:51 |

| Tm_T | btw does anyone got Kaffeine working? | 01:53 |
| luke | _nate : I had something like that once, when I booted, it ran the first time wizard, I skipped it, and it had changed a couple of settings but not much, so I just changed them back | 01:54 |

| Tm_T | ixion83: slow? how slow? | 02:04 |
| ixion83 | My ArchLinux is fast | 02:04 |
| ixion83 | Gentoo too ... | 02:04 |
| ixion83 | But Mandriva and kubuntu/Ubuntu it's afraid | 02:04 |

| Tm_T | give me times please | 02:05 |
| ixion83 | lol Tm_T | 02:05 |

| Tm_T | "x is fast but b is slow" ok, I got it(?) | 02:05 |

| ixion83 | ok ... | 02:07 |
| luke | not as fast as windows starting up, but at least as soon as it starts up, I can use it. with windows after it starts up you have to wait another minute until you can use it | 02:08 |
| ixion83 | Huum for install Nvidia video drivers I install with Kynaptic or from nvidia.com ? | 02:08 |
| luke | use synaptic, and install nvidia-glx I think | 02:08 |
| ixion83 | ok :) | 02:09 |
| Tm_T | ixion83: you got the point then, we really can't know what slow means when you say it if you don't give time or something ;) | 02:09 |
| Tm_T | ixion83: no, use apt-get | 02:09 |
| Tm_T | easier, really | 02:09 |
| ixion83 | apt-get nvidia-glx ? | 02:09 |
| luke | too true | 02:09 |
| Tm_T | yes | 02:10 |
| Tm_T | as root/ sudo it | 02:10 |
| ixion83 | Why with Kynaptic there is no install bar when it installs update ? | 02:10 |
| luke | sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx | 02:10 |
| ubuntu | cause kynaptic sucks, use synaptic | 02:10 |
| ixion83 | thanks luke | 02:10 |
| ixion83 | But they will update Kynaptic no ?? :) | 02:10 |

| Nub | what package? | 02:14 |
| Tm_T | luke: why you call me Tim? | 02:15 |
| ubuntu | i know, but its much more efficient to do it in the gui with just one click, instead of typing everything out every time. i said it doesent do it as well. | 02:15 |
| Nub | i tried finding it with apt-get, no package named tulip | 02:15 |

| transgress | well you are going to need something to mold the plastic, something to put the little tape crap inside of it, something to make the metal slider... so you'll have to install all of those first before making floppies | 02:26 |
| ubuntuperson | why dont you use cdrw's? | 02:26 |
| luke | get a flashdrive, they're always handy | 02:26 |
| Tm_T | what's wrong with floppy? | 02:27 |
| ubuntuperson | a 12k file is pretty small, just memorize it | 02:27 |

| ixion83 | have you got a problem with kdelibsdata ? The update failed !! | 02:37 |
| Diablo-D3 | ubuntuperson: blame nvidia for releasing crappy drivers. | 02:37 |
| ubuntuperson | no, not nvidias fault | 02:37 |
| ubuntuperson | i blame kubuntu for not detecting my card properly | 02:38 |
| Diablo-D3 | ubuntuperson: yup, nvidia refuses to open source their drivers. | 02:38 |
| ixion83 | ubuntuperson: Kubuntu detects my GeForce 6800 GT great ! | 02:38 |
| ixion83 | I change "nv" to "nvidia" | 02:38 |
| Diablo-D3 | ubuntuperson: the detection is done using nvidia's drivers. You know that, right? | 02:38 |
| ubuntuperson | thats the thing, when i use the nvidia driver it works perfectly, but the way that kubuntu sets it up is why it didnt work | 02:38 |
| pussfeller | i cant believe floppies dont auto mount.... | 02:39 |
| Diablo-D3 | pussfeller: it requires a floppy drive that sends the detect signal | 02:39 |
| ubuntuperson | it should use vesa for unsupported cards | 02:39 |
| luke | pussfeller: open media:/ in konq | 02:40 |
| andypicch | what about development environments... is there something out there that I can develop linux applications in using C# or Visual Basic-like language that you guys would recommend | 02:41 |
| Diablo-D3 | andypicch: no, learn a real language. | 02:42 |
| andypicch | come on... I know c++ too, but I prefer c#... a real language | 02:42 |
| andypicch | what is real to you java... perl, have you ever seen C#... it is about an inch from java... I am sure that will stir up some poop for all of you Microsoft haters | 02:44 |
| Diablo-D3 | I've coded in both java and c# | 02:46 |
| Diablo-D3 | and I hate both. | 02:46 |
| andypicch | do you prefer perl | 02:46 |
| luke | any idea why my system doesn't pick up my cpu temperature? | 02:46 |
| Diablo-D3 | I prefer perl, sure. | 02:46 |
| Diablo-D3 | And C, and ObjC. | 02:47 |
| Diablo-D3 | luke: you dont have lmsensors properly configured | 02:47 |
| andypicch | dont know anything about it myself | 02:47 |
| luke | whats that? | 02:47 |
| andypicch | I am open to anything, I just use the others because it is my job | 02:47 |
| Diablo-D3 | luke: the cpu tempature thing. | 02:48 |
| Diablo-D3 | andypicch: get mono if you want c# | 02:48 |
| andypicch | mono... okay thanks | 02:48 |
| luke | yeah ok, how can I reconfigure it to pick up my cpu temp? | 02:48 |
| andypicch | hey... you're not wishing mono the disease on my right? that is a real application? | 02:49 |

| ixion83 | I search amule or QT frontend of Amule ... apt-get ?? :) | 02:50 |

| transgress | okay correct me if i'm wrong... if gnome in ubuntu can automount my external ntfs drive, kubuntu should be able to mount it somehow right? | 04:59 |
| Tm_T | darkaudit: no, it's morning so get up ;p | 04:59 |
| kkathman | transgress yes | 04:59 |
| transgress | or is the gnome disk manager just that good? | 04:59 |

| transgress | Tezkah: yeah | 05:00 |
| transgress | i haven't tried in kubuntu, but it never has mounted in anything... | 05:00 |
| Tezkah | weird | 05:00 |
| kkathman | transgress: you just have to make entries in your fstab and create mount points in mnt | 05:00 |
| transgress | and i'd really like to burn some of the stuff to dvd so i can slick it and format it ext3 | 05:00 |

| Tezkah | well thats what kubuntu is | 05:01 |
| Tezkah | just kubuntu has it installed by default | 05:01 |
| transgress | well the gnome volume manager is what's causing it to automount on my lappy | 05:02 |
| transgress | but i don't have that on my desktop, and i've always gotten errors in other linuxes when i tried to mount it | 05:02 |
| Tm_T | amd is great | 05:03 |
| transgress | yeah it is | 05:03 |
| Tezkah | well you'd just have to edit your fstab | 05:03 |
| Tm_T | hmm, my friend just plugged his usb mem into my pc and that's it, it worked | 05:03 |
| Tm_T | Tezkah: I don't think so | 05:04 |
| Tm_T | I never done it w/ usb mem | 05:04 |
| Tezkah | if it didn't autodetect, I mean | 05:04 |
| Tm_T | hmm | 05:04 |
| Tm_T | oh, doing it hard way... | 05:05 |
| transgress | can i not just mount it manually w/o editting fstab? | 05:05 |

| Tezkah | oops | 05:05 |
| Tezkah | thats not the right comman | 05:05 |

| transgress | dmesg saw it... Attached scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 | 05:07 |
| transgress | ah seems /dev/sda is picking it up... | 05:07 |

| kkathman | Tm_T well they are good for things like java etc if you need them | 06:10 |
| kkathman | good to stay away from them in general | 06:10 |
| Tm_T | kkathman: yeah, that's true | 06:11 |
| luke_ | I guess you'll just have to change everything back shiv. it wont happen again though | 06:11 |
| kkathman | only reason I put in marillat so I could get the w32codecs | 06:11 |
| Tm_T | I use marillat :) | 06:12 |
| Tm_T | hmm, maybe I try dev version of Koffice | 06:12 |
| shiv | thats fine | 06:12 |
| shiv | I am fine as long as things work | 06:13 |
| kkathman | let me know what you think about it Tm_T ..Im a little anxious to hear feedback on Krita | 06:13 |
| shiv | is there any way to increase the size on analog clock on the panel? | 06:13 |
| Tezkah | yep | 06:13 |
| kkathman | Tm_T The initial feedback I got some time back on Krita was that it wasnt really ready for prime time | 06:13 |
| Tezkah | guess how you do it? | 06:13 |
| shiv | no clue | 06:13 |
| shiv | i am a newbie | 06:13 |
| luke_ | try right click, configure clock | 06:14 |
| Tezkah | right click, configure clock =) | 06:14 |
| shiv | ya but there is no option to increase the size of analog clock | 06:14 |
| kkathman | For all you Konqueror lovers: http://dot.kde.org/1115658889/ | 06:14 |
| shiv | digital yes | 06:14 |
| Tezkah | change the font | 06:14 |
| Tezkah | er, digital... hmm | 06:14 |
| kkathman | Tm_T you know anything about Kexi? Is that supposed to be released with KOffice? | 06:15 |
| shiv | alright guys | 06:15 |
| Tm_T | kkathman: I dunno | 06:15 |
| shiv | time to sleep | 06:16 |
| shiv | see u later | 06:16 |
| shiv | Bye | 06:16 |

| Tm_T | eh | 06:27 |
| choop | i'm installing now. | 06:27 |
| Tm_T | it depends what terminal you are using | 06:27 |
| choop | i've got both an ethernet card (which I use) and a modem (which I don't) and the installer didn't detect either of them in the network hardware detection step. | 06:28 |
| luke_ | thats cool choop. if you have any problems with the install just ask | 06:28 |
| choop | heh: that's timing, luke | 06:28 |
| Tm_T | :p | 06:28 |
| luke_ | haha | 06:28 |
| choop | would #ubuntu be a better resource for that question? | 06:28 |
| luke_ | not sure. I didn't install with a kubuntu cd, but you can ask there | 06:29 |

| kkathman | choop: did you look at your dmesg? | 06:29 |
| choop | dmesg? don't know how to get there. | 06:29 |
| choop | what is dmesg? | 06:30 |
| kkathman | go to a shell and type dmesg and it should tell you if the kernel detected the devices | 06:30 |
| choop | i'm installing - no shell I know of | 06:30 |
| Tezkah | hey Tm_T, what terminal would you recommend? | 06:30 |
| kkathman | choop command line is what I mean | 06:31 |
| choop | how to get to cmd line from installer? | 06:31 |
| choop | ctrl+alt+f2? | 06:31 |
| kkathman | you are in the installer now? | 06:31 |
| choop | something like that? | 06:31 |
| choop | yes, i'm in the installer now. | 06:31 |

| Tm_T | Tezkah``: screenshot? | 06:34 |
| choop | i *thought* it was PCI | 06:34 |
| choop | you want some background? | 06:34 |
| choop | on the hardware, i mean? | 06:34 |
| kkathman | choop well you should be able to look inside your computer and see if you have an ethernet card I think | 06:35 |
| choop | there's an ethernet card in there. | 06:35 |
| choop | it's correctly seated. | 06:35 |
| kkathman | choop ok, and was it hooked up to the net when you did your install? | 06:35 |
| choop | no. | 06:35 |
| choop | still not connected to the net. | 06:35 |
| kkathman | choop aha | 06:35 |
| choop | i've got one ethernet cable, and it's in the back of this laptop. | 06:36 |
| kkathman | choop ok, so you DO have internet through that line...right? | 06:36 |
| choop | through the line, yes. to the desktop, no | 06:36 |
| kkathman | choop ok, so may I ask why you didnt plug the internet into the desktop to install? | 06:36 |
| choop | because I knew I'd need help online during the install! | 06:37 |
| choop | :) | 06:37 |
| choop | i've only got the one ethernet connection. | 06:37 |
| choop | one cable which pipes the net to one machine, from one DSL modem. | 06:37 |
| choop | ...currently in use by this laptop, on which I seek help. | 06:37 |
| kkathman | choop well, fair enough, but the installer needs that connection to auto configure your network settings | 06:37 |
| choop | hmm... how would it be if I skipped the network stuff during the installer and went back to configure that later? | 06:38 |
| luke_ | you could do without help just while it configures the network | 06:38 |
| choop | well, the connection has proved hot-swappable before... | 06:39 |
| kkathman | choop so you have 2 choices 1) go ahead an continue the rest of the install, and we'll solve the ethernet issue after that, or 2) go back, plug the net into your connection on your desktop and try again, and if it doesnt detect, we can go to option (1) :) | 06:39 |
| Tezkah`` | http://tinypic.com/52fbyh | 06:39 |
| Tezkah`` | haha | 06:39 |
| Tezkah`` | finally got a screenshot | 06:39 |
| Tezkah`` | because I haven't got hosting set up | 06:39 |
| choop | i'll try 2, and be back in either a minute if it fails or longer if it don't. | 06:39 |
| kkathman | choop its possible that your card is too old, but I'd be a little surprised if that were the case, but still possible | 06:39 |
| choop | wish me luck! | 06:39 |
| Tezkah`` | hooray | 06:39 |

| choop | I can use fat32 formatting, right? | 06:45 |
| luke_ | it's probibly one of those intel ones without a onboard proccessor, linux can't get the drivers for them | 06:45 |
| Tezkah | now, I just need to set it to autojoin/identify | 06:45 |
| Tezkah | yesssss | 06:45 |
| Tezkah | the precious | 06:45 |
| choop | the ethernet card isn't onboard | 06:46 |
| Tm_T | Tezkah: heh, irssi.org have all information for it | 06:46 |
| choop | it's got a few of its own chips, seated in a PCI slot | 06:46 |
| choop | this was confusing: the ethernet card isn't onboard | 06:46 |
| choop | ethernet support isn't onboard as in natively supported by motherboard | 06:46 |
| choop | plus I've got an Athlon K7 Thunderbird... nothing intel, I believe. | 06:47 |
| choop | okay, ethernet later. | 06:48 |
| choop | partitioning now. | 06:48 |
| luke_ | yeah, but the ethernet card doesn't use it's own proccessor, it uses the computers cpu, linux doesn't support those cards. you'll need another one. intel and windows wont make the drivers open source, so linux can't use them | 06:48 |
| choop | shit. so i'll need to go buy an ethernet card to use any linux? | 06:48 |
| luke_ | if you can't get the right driver for it yes | 06:48 |
| choop | effyouseekay. | 06:49 |
| choop | well, all right then. | 06:49 |
| choop | partitioning now. | 06:49 |
| luke_ | yup | 06:49 |

| choop | how to format those three (hda1 is primary) without losing hda5? | 06:50 |
| luke_ | you got everything off your harddrive aye? | 06:51 |
| luke_ | that you want to keep | 06:51 |

| da_bon_bon | choop: i am very sorry. but i lag a lot, due to slow net. can u plz repeat the question ? | 07:59 |
| choop | what's up with trees getting married? | 08:00 |
| kkathman | da_bon_bon: get the cd, install hoary, then you can apt-get the kubuntu-desktop..its the best way to do it | 08:00 |
| kkathman | choop: go read that site that was mentioned | 08:00 |
| da_bon_bon | kkathman: its still 100 mb : | 08:00 |
| da_bon_bon | :) | 08:00 |
| choop | i mentioned the site | 08:00 |
| da_bon_bon | choop: trees getting married ?? | 08:00 |
| kkathman | da_bon_bon: best that can be done at this point....if you cant download very fast, you wont be able to keep up very well with linux anyway | 08:01 |
| da_bon_bon | kkathman: i am quite sure that i can update regularly, the problem being just to get the cds :) | 08:04 |
| luke_ | 2kbs is sooooooo slow. I'm on dialup and I download at an average of 5 or 6 kbs | 08:04 |
| da_bon_bon | luke_: i am on cable internet | 08:05 |
| da_bon_bon | but still, its 2kbps | 08:05 |
| da_bon_bon | coz plans with more speed cost more bux :( | 08:05 |
| kkathman | da_bon_bon: I think you'll do best to get hoary and install it for sure. then apt-get kubuntu-desktop even if it takes 10 hours to do so (which it wont) | 08:05 |
| da_bon_bon | it'll take more then 10 :0 | 08:06 |
| kkathman | I dont know anywhere in the US at least that has anything that slow...dialup is faster :) | 08:06 |
| da_bon_bon | kkathman: here, dial up is pay per minute | 08:06 |
| kkathman | da_bon_bon: ok, so, 25 hours...at least you'll have it :) | 08:06 |
| da_bon_bon | lol | 08:06 |
| da_bon_bon | but i dont want nome wither | 08:07 |
| da_bon_bon | *either | 08:07 |
| da_bon_bon | *gnomr | 08:07 |
| da_bon_bon | **gnome | 08:07 |
| kkathman | dont install kubuntu without doing a hoary install first | 08:07 |
| luke_ | why not download the kubuntu iso? | 08:07 |
| kkathman | luke_: because when you install the kubuntu iso you dont get everything to run things most espcially the gtk stuff thats mandatory for some of the programs | 08:08 |
| kkathman | there are more problems with installing via the k-disk | 08:08 |
| kkathman | if something goes wrong with your k-d you have NO backup UI either | 08:09 |
| luke_ | fair enough | 08:09 |
| da_bon_bon | fuck! lagging again | 08:09 |
| da_bon_bon | luke_: coz my net is too slow :) | 08:09 |
| amr_ | i agree with kkathman | 08:09 |
| luke_ | get them to send out some hoary cds | 08:09 |
| amr_ | never install the kubuntu alone better install horay then use apt-get for kde | 08:10 |
| kkathman | Tm_T did you upgrade to breezy yet? | 08:10 |
| da_bon_bon | heh, ppl are already getting the hoary cds : | 08:10 |
| Tm_T | kkathman: me? no, should I? :p | 08:10 |
| Tm_T | kkathman: I'll do it when it's pre-released or something | 08:11 |
| da_bon_bon | so, again, no indians here ? | 08:14 |
| luke_ | haha ubuntu use a red hat server with apache for their website | 08:14 |
| kkathman | Tm_T Im holding back right now cuz I think its too unstable at the moment | 08:14 |

| candyban | transgress: I have installed xine | 12:32 |
| transgress | tehn go to Engine in the amarok properties | 12:32 |
| candyban | transgress: I did | 12:32 |
| transgress | and? | 12:32 |
| firas | transgress: no such option, however I reduced the resolution to low color 8-bit instead of 16-bit and it worked fine, strange though | 12:32 |
| candyban | transgress: but somehow that is using soundcard 0 as well (it used to be 1 before my reboot) | 12:32 |
| transgress | it's there | 12:33 |
| transgress | let me find it | 12:33 |
| candyban | transgress: hence my quest for assistance so I can "survive" reboots ;) | 12:33 |
| transgress | firas: it's basically having problems transferring so much... tightvnc works a helluva lot better than realvnc | 12:33 |
| transgress | herm... quite interesting... but i don't know candyban sorry... | 12:33 |
| candyban | "device used for stereo output" ... what should go there? (currently I have default) ... can't I just change it to something appropriate? (/dev/dsp1 does not work) | 12:34 |
| transgress | firas: you're right... the kde version of the vnc gui is jewed... the gnome one has it... | 12:34 |
| firas | transgress: only thing I don't like about the gtk one is that it doesn't give a full screen option like kdrc does | 12:35 |
| transgress | actually i'm pretty sure it does... if i felt like starting my lappy i'd look on... but i'm also tired right now so we'll go with you're right. | 12:36 |
| transgress | i really gotta stop shopping on amazon at 5:30 in the morning... | 12:36 |
| transgress | i've had packages nearly every day since last week | 12:37 |
| transgress | i feel like such a capitalist pig | 12:38 |
| firas | transgress: sorry rdesktop (gtk gui) does have a full screen mode, it's just that you can't toggle between full screen and normal mode while connected, u have to disconnect completely | 12:43 |
| firas | by the way, rdesktop is having the same problem so the problem's either with rdesktop itself (underlying app) or with my graphics settings | 12:44 |
| transgress | ah | 12:45 |
| transgress | k | 12:45 |
| transgress | well nighty night | 12:45 |
| transgress | i'ma go to bed before i spend the rest of my bank account | 12:45 |
| firas | that's a good idea :) | 12:45 |
| luke_ | night | 12:46 |

| luke_ | whats up | 01:00 |
| QrX | hi | 01:00 |
| luke_ | whats your problem? | 01:00 |
| QrX | i am a newb and i want to modifiy kubuntu to get grfic root account | 01:01 |
| QrX | grafic* | 01:01 |
| QrX | from the sart up page | 01:01 |
| === Ken-Oh-Ki [~Sidney@200.96.114.88] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| luke_ | so you want to start kde as root? | 01:02 |
| QrX | indeed | 01:02 |
| luke_ | don't, theres no point, you can use the sudo command, and it's safer not to anyway | 01:02 |
| QrX | but i am really bad by using shell | 01:03 |
| QrX | hmmm | 01:03 |
| QrX | how can i work in grafical mod under basic user account then ? | 01:03 |
| === amalsek [~amalsek@ADijon-151-1-84-55.w83-196.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| QrX | but in root | 01:03 |
| luke_ | depends what you want to do | 01:04 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | http://pastebin.com/283603 -> trying to rsync my lan | 01:04 |
| QrX | cause for exemple if i want to edit the apt sources.list in grafical i cant cause ive no rights | 01:05 |
| Tm_T | eeh | 01:05 |
| luke_ | do you know how to edit your kmenu?> | 01:05 |
| allee | Ken-Oh-Ki: you have no sshd running on the local net clients. | 01:05 |
| QrX | not really | 01:05 |
| Tm_T | QrX: just run "sudo kedit /etc/apt/sources.list" | 01:06 |
| luke_ | ok that doesn't matter, run this in a terminal kdesu "konqueror --profile filemanagement" | 01:06 |
| allee | Ken-Oh-Ki: can you ssh 192.168.1.3 to the clients? | 01:06 |
| Tm_T | hah | 01:06 |
| QrX | sec plz | 01:06 |
| Tm_T | :) | 01:06 |
| luke_ | that gives you a root file manager | 01:06 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | I can ping... | 01:06 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | but I can't ssh my self | 01:07 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | the other client is a Win98 machine | 01:07 |
| allee | Ken-Oh-Ki: He, no sshd on win98 ;) | 01:08 |
| QrX | can you explain to me in pv plz | 01:08 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Can't I edit that file by hands? | 01:08 |
| QrX | talking to me ? | 01:08 |
| allee | Ken-Oh-Ki: as long as /etc/resolv.conf does not change on the router, yes | 01:09 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | My pc is the router | 01:09 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | it's direct connected to an adsl modem | 01:09 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | nameserver = machine name? | 01:10 |
| luke_ | qrx, did you try that command I gave you? | 01:10 |
| === nico [~nico@81.255.3.142] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| QrX | well i opened the file in shell with nano | 01:10 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | allee: with this kind of proxy, do I need to specify the proxy server in the clients? | 01:10 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | allee: nameserver = machine name? | 01:11 |
| luke_ | mk | 01:11 |
| allee | Ken-Oh-Ki: I would suggest to install pdnsd and resolvconf on the router/aka PC. Then you can set on the clients as nameserver 10.0.0.1 | 01:11 |
| QrX | does your command give right to work under root in grafical mode ? | 01:11 |
| luke_ | run= kdesu "konqueror --profile filemanagement" | 01:12 |
| allee | resolvconf updates pdnsd whenever you reconnect to network and nameserver changes | 01:12 |
| QrX | ok sec | 01:12 |
| Diablo-D3 | heh | 01:12 |
| Diablo-D3 | I just use bind9 | 01:12 |
| allee | Ken-Oh-Ki: your clients can then use the static router/PC address | 01:12 |
| Diablo-D3 | and tell all the clients on the lan to connect to it | 01:12 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Diablo: to internet connection sharing? | 01:13 |
| allee | Diablo-D3: never tried bind9. What's the advantage? pdns is really easy to setup | 01:13 |
| QrX | ok | 01:14 |
| QrX | i ran it | 01:14 |
| Diablo-D3 | the advantage? a real dns server | 01:14 |
| QrX | it ask for the passwd | 01:14 |
| Diablo-D3 | so I can have all clients resolve, say, fake domain names | 01:14 |
| luke_ | so type in your passwork | 01:14 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | ^^' All I want is to make it run | 01:14 |
| QrX | ok i did | 01:14 |
| QrX | a window is open | 01:15 |
| luke_ | it gives you root access to everything | 01:15 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | allee: I installed pdns | 01:15 |
| QrX | i can seee 2 files inside | 01:15 |
| allee | Diablo-D3: well, not that easy to unterstand/setup for a newbie ;) | 01:15 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | the rsync still with the same errors | 01:15 |
| QrX | ah ok i can access the file in konqueror then | 01:16 |
| QrX | right ? | 01:16 |
| allee | With pdns you don't need to rsync | 01:16 |
| luke_ | yeah | 01:16 |
| QrX | great | 01:16 |
| QrX | thx a lot man | 01:16 |
| QrX | :) | 01:16 |
| Diablo-D3 | allee: of course not | 01:16 |
| Diablo-D3 | allee: actually, no, thats wrong | 01:16 |
| Diablo-D3 | allee: it works fine by default | 01:16 |
| Diablo-D3 | allee: even accepts outside connections | 01:16 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Now I just order to Win98 use my machine's port 80 to browse | 01:16 |
| luke_ | no prob qrx | 01:17 |
| allee | Set nameserver on clients to be 10.0.0.1 (afair that's the IP of router/pc | 01:17 |
| QrX | sorry to be so newb | 01:17 |
| allee | Diablo-D3: to minimize latency a caching name server makes most sense. That's bind9 default? | 01:18 |
| QrX | :p | 01:18 |
| luke_ | we have to learn | 01:18 |
| Diablo-D3 | allee: bind9 does cache, yes | 01:18 |
| QrX | :) | 01:18 |
| Diablo-D3 | it may not be the most optimized caching by default, but it does | 01:18 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | My Win98 machine can ping both eth0 and eth1 but still not browsing | 01:18 |
| allee | Diablo-D3: Hmm, I'll have a look at bind9. pdnsd did what I need/want but bind9 is definitely more flexible ;) | 01:19 |
| allee | Lunch. bbl | 01:19 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Does pdnsd allow to run games link Gunbound? XD | 01:19 |
| Diablo-D3 | allee: well, if you just want to cache, then bind9 is far too big | 01:20 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Diablo: How hard is to set it? | 01:20 |
| Diablo-D3 | I can hook dhcp3 into bind9, and allow dynamic setting of hostnames and shit | 01:20 |

| snowcrash | yo | 01:21 |
| snowcrash | and today | 01:21 |
| snowcrash | i have no questions ;) | 01:21 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Diablo: All I want is the other pc able to browse ^ | 01:21 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: thats not hard | 01:21 |
| Diablo-D3 | just put a dns resolver on your gateway, and point all your lan boxen to it | 01:21 |
| QrX | it works great | 01:22 |
| luke_ | cool | 01:22 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | ... the Win98 can ping Google, but can't browse it... | 01:22 |
| QrX | i will remeber the command :p | 01:22 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: hrm, I wonder what you did wrong then | 01:23 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: sounds like your nat isnt. | 01:23 |
| === JensK [~JensK@p549034F5.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| luke_ | it might be a setting in ie ken-oh-ki | 01:23 |
| Diablo-D3 | luke_: it isnt | 01:23 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Luke: Possible | 01:23 |
| luke_ | look in internet options > connection settings | 01:23 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | it is all (my ip) (some port) | 01:23 |
| Diablo-D3 | gateways are set elsewhere | 01:23 |
| Diablo-D3 | outside of msie | 01:23 |
| snowcrash | luke did that browser plugin work out ? | 01:23 |
| Diablo-D3 | "direct connection to the internet" should be set in everything | 01:24 |
| luke_ | yeah I installed jre thanks | 01:24 |
| Diablo-D3 | nat automagically fixes everything | 01:24 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | ow | 01:24 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Diablo-D3: removed the proxy configuration in IE, put my eth0 as ns of the Win98 and still the same | 01:26 |
| Diablo-D3 | yes, you shouldnt set a proxy | 01:26 |
| Diablo-D3 | especially since _you dont have one setup_ | 01:26 |
| Diablo-D3 | whats the ip of your gateway? | 01:26 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | eth = 10.0.0.1 | 01:27 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | eth0* | 01:27 |
| Diablo-D3 | and is it set to packet forward? | 01:27 |
| QrX | ok now i have to install my 3d drivers | 01:28 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Well, actually I don't remember what I did or what I didn't.. | 01:28 |
| luke_ | qrx: nvidia? | 01:28 |
| QrX | yup | 01:29 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Im trying to use a guidedog thing, I think | 01:29 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: try sudo cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward | 01:29 |
| QrX | i did an apt get update | 01:29 |
| QrX | then packets are udated i hope | 01:29 |
| luke_ | qrx: apt-get install nvidia-glx | 01:29 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Diablo: it's 1 | 01:29 |
| QrX | ok | 01:29 |
| Diablo-D3 | then thats set right | 01:30 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: not sure what you did | 01:30 |
| Diablo-D3 | but whatever you did, you did it | 01:30 |
| QrX | k it says its done | 01:31 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Guidedog was set to my eth0 instead of eth1... | 01:31 |
| QrX | i guess i need to restart comp .. | 01:31 |
| luke_ | o then you have to turn on the drivers, which I don't remember how to do. and I can't find out because apt is stuffed at the moment for some reason | 01:32 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: yeah, dont mix your eths up | 01:32 |

| thorre | greetings | 01:32 |
| luke_ | yeah | 01:32 |
| thorre | i have been running linux for many years now (slackware) and wish to test kubuntu | 01:33 |
| Diablo-D3 | thorre++ | 01:33 |
| luke_ | qrx: sudo nvidia-glx-config enable | 01:33 |
| thorre | is there anything special i need to know? | 01:33 |
| QrX | ah oki | 01:33 |
| thorre | for example is there any documentation on the package mgmt system? | 01:33 |
| luke_ | then restart your computer | 01:33 |
| Diablo-D3 | thorre: back up /etc, /home, and /var | 01:33 |
| QrX | ok it says config is successfully updated | 01:34 |
| QrX | i leave session then and restart comp | 01:34 |
| luke_ | yup | 01:34 |
| Diablo-D3 | QrX: hey | 01:35 |
| Diablo-D3 | you dont have you restart | 01:35 |
| Diablo-D3 | just press control-alt-backspace | 01:35 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Im almost giving up | 01:35 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | this is the problem around linux | 01:35 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | you must be years experient to make things run ok | 01:36 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: well, the problem is, on my setup, its working fine | 01:36 |
| luke_ | I never knew that: :p had I known I could've saved my computer from crashing ealier today | 01:36 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: and I dont have anything special going on | 01:36 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | The problem is that in windows I download a 4mb program and the shit is running | 01:37 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | and in linux requires 10 weird commands, 3 updates and still not running | 01:37 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | that's why linux can't kick windows ass | 01:37 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: like I said, Im not doing anything different, and its working fine for me | 01:38 |
| Diablo-D3 | so its defenetly on your end | 01:38 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Could be a limitation of my isp? | 01:38 |
| candyban | transgress: It's working now with the other soundcard ... thank god for xine :) | 01:38 |

| Diablo-D3 | your isp doesnt know you're natting | 01:38 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: describe your setup to me | 01:39 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | guidedog -> router -> masquing -> nom-masquing: 192.168.1.0/24 | 01:39 |
| candyban | Diablo-D3: Even with NAT, the ISP can figure out if you are NATing | 01:39 |
| Diablo-D3 | what is guidedog? | 01:39 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | echo 1 > to that ip_forward file | 01:40 |
| Diablo-D3 | candyban: well, technically yes | 01:40 |
| Diablo-D3 | candyban: but they cant block using it | 01:40 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | guidedog = connection sharing program | 01:40 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: which.... you dont need guidedog | 01:40 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: linux connection shares by default. | 01:40 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | fix the resolv.conf | 01:40 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | this is what I did | 01:40 |
| QrX | ctrl alt backspace doesnt work on my comp ( | 01:40 |
| candyban | Diablo-D3: : if they notice different uptimes ... or if the tcp window something (can't remember) isn't a nice sequence | 01:40 |
| Diablo-D3 | candyban: they cant read your uptime | 01:41 |
| candyban | Diablo-D3: they can calculate it ... | 01:41 |
| Diablo-D3 | candyban: they could mac filter, but iirc linux obscures mac addresses | 01:41 |
| luke_ | qrx: did you install with kubuntu cd? or did you install with a ubuntu cd and install kde? | 01:41 |
| QrX | no kubunto iso cd | 01:41 |
| QrX | kubuntu* | 01:42 |
| Diablo-D3 | candyban: they cant in any useful way | 01:42 |
| luke_ | ok | 01:42 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: I'd ditch guidedog first | 01:42 |
| candyban | Diablo-D3: : mac filter? MAC addresses are lost when changing network segment ... meaning the ISP will always see the MAC address of your NAT box | 01:42 |
| Diablo-D3 | candyban: bingo. | 01:42 |
| luke_ | well if control alt backspace doesn't work restart your computer | 01:42 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | removed guidedog | 01:42 |
| QrX | i did | 01:42 |
| Diablo-D3 | luke_: it doesnt | 01:43 |
| luke_ | cool | 01:43 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Im tired of it | 01:43 |
| Diablo-D3 | luke_: it just kills X | 01:43 |
| Diablo-D3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: does it work now? | 01:43 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | Of course not | 01:43 |
| Diablo-D3 | whats the ip of your outside connection eth? | 01:43 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | as the f*cking flash installer didn't work | 01:43 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | FF installer didn't work | 01:43 |

| Ken-Oh-Ki | everything timed out | 01:53 |
| Diablo-D3 | so, wait | 01:53 |
| Diablo-D3 | traceroute from your gateway | 01:54 |
| Diablo-D3 | does it pass through eth0? (thats the outside one, right?) | 01:54 |

| DiabloD3 | try this | 02:01 |
| DiabloD3 | set your gateway on your windows box to 200.180.143.225 | 02:01 |

| DiabloD3 | I know | 02:02 |
| DiabloD3 | but try it anyhow | 02:02 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | ok.. | 02:02 |
| Ken-Oh-Ki | if ppp0 "overwrites" eht0 ip, should't I guide Win98 with eth1 ip as gateway? | 02:03 |
| DiabloD3 | Ken-Oh-Ki: Im thinking ppp0 is bridged... | 02:04 |

| allee | DiabloD3: why? the router pc needs to route from localnet IF to pppoe IF | 02:16 |

| Ken-Oh-Ki | ^^' | 02:17 |

| kkathman | thats a gtk | 04:18 |

| psn | mrmanic: well hopefuly I'll solve that one for 0.18 | 04:22 |
| NTolerance | the main thing is that it doesn't have the "real names" of the people in your userlist | 04:22 |
| mrmanic | NTolerance: you don't like the real names of the people in your userlist? | 04:23 |
| NTolerance | no, takes up too much space | 04:23 |

| mrmanic | I kinda like it. | 04:23 |
| NTolerance | if i really want to see who someone is....just whois | 04:23 |
| NTolerance | plus, why put your real name here anyways? | 04:23 |
| mrmanic | Mostly b/c I have a bunch of people in my various channels in my addressbook | 04:23 |
| mrmanic | and have them linked | 04:23 |

| NTolerance | i've learned that gtk-engines-gtk-qt is what causes Firefox to close when you change desktops or backgrounds | 04:38 |
| NTolerance | what is kioslaves? | 04:38 |
| mae | does kubuntu come with the gecko renderer for konqueror? | 04:39 |
| kkathman | NTolerance: I havent had a problem one with Firefox or Opera. Tho, Opera sometimes gets stuck on some websites, but I think thats an Opera thing, not gtk or KDE | 04:40 |
| kkathman | mae: I dont think so, but I want to think that Konq is gekko based, since it seems to after Netscape plugins | 04:40 |
| kkathman | *go after | 04:41 |
| mae | kkathman, by default it uses khtml | 04:42 |
| mae | there is a gecko kpart .. i was wondering if kubuntu came with it.. konqueror can use either | 04:42 |
| kkathman | ahh ok...I remember it wasnt pure gekko | 04:42 |
| kkathman | I dont use konq for my browser, so I really havent pursued it | 04:42 |

| === dewey_ is now known as dewey-ibook | ||
| kkathman | mae: be careful about amd64 and linux | 05:27 |
| kkathman | Better to stick with a 32-bit CPU | 05:27 |
| KaiL_ | he can also run the Athlon 64 with 32Bit Linux ;) | 05:28 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: well thats true...hehe but if you have the choice and want to put a box together, just save the money and get a Sempron CPU | 05:30 |
| KaiL_ | but a k8 based Sempron | 05:30 |
| KaiL_ | (your energy bill will thank you ;) | 05:31 |
| kkathman | hehe true enough | 05:31 |
| KaiL_ | don't know, if that's relevant in Texas | 05:31 |
| kkathman | I got a 2500+...I know I prolly should have spent a few extra bucks to get the 3100..but I can do that later if I want | 05:31 |
| KaiL_ | 0,15EUR/kWh here | 05:32 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: energy is always relevant in Texas :) | 05:32 |
| KaiL_ | 2500+ for Socket 754?!? | 05:32 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: yah | 05:32 |
| KaiL_ | I thought, it starts with 2600+ | 05:32 |
| buz | sempron starts at 2600+ i think | 05:33 |
| kkathman | remember I was going cheap on my first Linux box :) | 05:33 |
| kkathman | nope I have a 2500 | 05:33 |
| buz | socket754? u sure? | 05:33 |
| KaiL_ | and cool&quite only for 3000+ (1,8GHz, 128kiB) and 3100+ (1,8Ghz, 256KiB) | 05:33 |
| buz | can't find that specimen anywhere | 05:33 |

| buz | dude socketa | 05:34 |
| KaiL_ | -> K7, with ~60W :p | 05:35 |
| buz | K7 is a seriously shitty cpu by todays standards | 05:35 |
| kkathman | shrug...it was cheap | 05:35 |
| kkathman | and performs well for a throw away machine | 05:35 |
| === KaiL_ has a 3100+ with ~35W and c&q for down to ~13W :)) | ||
| buz | well it does | 05:35 |
| buz | but its a pain to cool | 05:35 |
| kkathman | like I said...I spent another $130 and get a new mobo and cpu when I want :) | 05:35 |
| buz | i got a real athlon64 3000+ | 05:35 |
| KaiL_ | buz: Winchester? | 05:36 |
| buz | yeah | 05:36 |
| kkathman | yeah I have an athlon 64 3000 on my win box | 05:36 |
| buz | venice didnt quite ship yet | 05:36 |
| buz | but as my board is being replaced, i coul dhave waited and got venice :( | 05:36 |
| KaiL_ | the Venice has a slightly reduced core voltage -> again some W less | 05:37 |
| kkathman | the 754 mobos are pretty expensive...much more than the Socket A...I have two kids in college and I dont have alot of spare cash :) | 05:37 |
| kkathman | it goes to them :) | 05:37 |
| buz | well the 3000+ runs at somewhere around 30w | 05:37 |
| buz | that's good enough | 05:37 |
| KaiL_ | kkathman: here in Germany you save that money in around a half year | 05:37 |
| kkathman | wow energy is that expensive? | 05:38 |
| buz | no | 05:38 |
| buz | sanely priced | 05:38 |
| KaiL_ | 0,15 EUR/kWh | 05:38 |
| Tm_T | hmh | 05:38 |
| kkathman | my company pays for 1/6th of my energy bill and all of my internet, so its not as big a deal :) | 05:39 |
| Tm_T | but when you don't pay electric bill yourself... ;p | 05:39 |
| kkathman | all my phone too | 05:39 |
| KaiL_ | kkathman: 1/6, s you have to pay the other 5/6 ;) | 05:39 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: uhm... well yeah I work out of my home | 05:39 |
| kkathman | The company isnt interested in paying me to wash clothes and keep food cold :) | 05:40 |
| kkathman | only to keep power to my computers :) | 05:40 |
| KaiL_ | lol | 05:40 |
| buz | mhh rotten food makes you sick | 05:41 |
| buz | so you cant work | 05:41 |

| kkathman | but seeing that I have, 10 computers in my home, a switch, washer, dryer. 4 TVs, fridge and other assorted electronics, its pretty clear that it would be a pimple on the ass of my electric bill :) | 05:43 |
| buz | you run all tvs at the same time? wtf | 05:43 |
| KaiL_ | 4 TVs?!? | 05:44 |
| amu | kkathman: in germany internet is cheaper than electric | 05:44 |
| kkathman | and when I factor in the company subsidy...welll... | 05:44 |
| KaiL_ | a typical european household has 2, maybe 3 (if there are 2 children...) | 05:44 |
| kkathman | my internet is FAR cheaper than my electric..even if I was paying for it :) | 05:44 |
| buz | depends | 05:44 |
| buz | most people i know with teenagers got one for every person in the house ;) | 05:44 |
| kkathman | my internet is cheaper than my Satellite dish or even my phone bill :) | 05:44 |
| kkathman | 4 TVs - main living room, master bedroom, my office, son's room | 05:45 |
| KaiL_ | phone bills are horror here | 05:45 |
| buz | dont use the phone | 05:45 |
| buz | that simple | 05:45 |
| KaiL_ | TV in bedroom? no | 05:45 |
| buz | its evil technology anyway | 05:45 |
| KaiL_ | TV in office? ok | 05:45 |
| kkathman | lol | 05:46 |
| buz | i don't particularly like the tv in the bedroom | 05:46 |
| buz | but you can win arguments with women | 05:46 |
| KaiL_ | TV in living room? should be unused, until the other is used | 05:46 |
| kkathman | nah TV in the bedroom is ok, switch it on while getting ready in the morning | 05:46 |
| buz | personally, i prefer the beamer in the living room :) | 05:46 |
| buz | but i don't watch tv anyway | 05:46 |

| `TUX`` | hi | 05:47 |
| `TUX`` | some tips about the new upgrade | 05:47 |
| `TUX`` | no kmail | 05:47 |
| `TUX`` | no konqueror | 05:48 |
| `TUX`` | etc etc.. | 05:48 |
| thedman | what upgrade? | 05:48 |
| KaiL_ | as the topic said :P | 05:48 |
| kkathman | no, we usually have only 1 TV on at a time, if any. at most, we might have 3, cuz the girls will watch a movie in the living area, young son might be playing a Video game on his, and oldest son and I watching a ball game in my office | 05:48 |
| KaiL_ | don't use breezy - until you know, what you are doing! | 05:48 |
| buz | yeah kaffeine finally got updated | 05:48 |
| kkathman | we invest in home entertainment, cuz it costs so much to go out | 05:49 |
| buz | talk about it | 05:49 |
| Tm_T | haha | 05:49 |
| KaiL_ | LOL | 05:49 |
| buz | go out ten times and the beamer is paid for | 05:49 |
| `TUX`` | ok thanks | 05:49 |
| KaiL_ | ..no wonder, that US-guys are getting fat :p | 05:49 |
| `TUX`` | kail | 05:49 |
| `TUX`` | i come from two years of mad cooker | 05:49 |
| buz | wtf | 05:49 |
| buz | i'm not in the us | 05:49 |
| buz | and i'm not fat, either | 05:49 |
| KaiL_ | `TUX``: try to reinstall konqueror and kmail | 05:50 |
| `TUX`` | that os breezy is nothing compared :D | 05:50 |
| KaiL_ | maybe the updates are already there :) | 05:50 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: yep fat and happy lol...chips and beer around :) | 05:50 |
| buz | judging by the massive profits of all the anti depressants in the us, people aren't quite that happy | 05:51 |
| `TUX`` | *mdk cooker | 05:51 |

| kkathman | NTolerance: lol | 05:52 |
| buz | but healthy eating also means looking ok at 50 and thus getting hot chicks | 05:52 |
| Tm_T | ? | 05:52 |
| NTolerance | i'm skinny, i just enjoy whatever food i want | 05:52 |
| buz | well in that case it doesnt matter too much | 05:52 |
| NTolerance | and beer, smokes, whatever :D | 05:52 |
| buz | but too much beer (which i love) makes me fat | 05:52 |
| kkathman | buz: well, thats a trend quite around the world actually, but I guess if we would just quit helping everyone on the globe, maybe we'd be a bit happier :) | 05:52 |
| KaiL_ | ...this explains, why US cars are bigger: the people are bigger, eh fatter ;) | 05:53 |

| NTolerance | a european car, even | 05:54 |
| amu | KaiL_: also no women? | 05:54 |
| kkathman | buz: Im for that .. screw everyone I say, let them worry about their own neighbors, but yanno funny thing, your government and others seem to scream bloody murder when we try to do that :) | 05:54 |
| KaiL_ | NTolerance: what's a "subcompact car"? | 05:54 |
| NTolerance | a small car | 05:54 |
| KaiL_ | like? | 05:54 |
| NTolerance | not as small like a smart car or anything... | 05:54 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: I think about it all the time..Im healthy :) | 05:54 |
| NTolerance | i have a VW GTI | 05:55 |
| KaiL_ | Golf? | 05:55 |
| NTolerance | yeah | 05:55 |
| NTolerance | MKIV | 05:55 |
| KaiL_ | that's not "small", that's "medium" | 05:55 |
| NTolerance | it's small in the US | 05:55 |
| KaiL_ | wow | 05:55 |
| NTolerance | see, over here we don't tax our gas to pay for social systems, so it's cheaper | 05:55 |
| kkathman | its funny in Texas almost all you see is these huge SUVs...in California, you see all the little shit cars :) | 05:55 |
| NTolerance | the People's Republik of Kalifornia | 05:56 |
| kkathman | I own a small Infinity, and wife has a sports car | 05:56 |
| KaiL_ | kkathman: little cars? you should come to europe to see, what's _small_ :) | 05:56 |
| buz | in most of europe, gas tax doesnt go towards social security | 05:56 |
| NTolerance | it goes somewhere | 05:56 |
| NTolerance | black hole maybe? | 05:56 |
| NTolerance | :P | 05:56 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: yah...I have friends in the Netherlands..they say the same thing | 05:56 |
| kkathman | gas tax doesnt go toward Soc Security here either | 05:57 |
| buz | it mostly goes towards road upkeep and environmental issues | 05:57 |
| KaiL_ | NTolerance: better roads (we don't need to creep with 80km/h around) | 05:57 |
| buz | public transport | 05:57 |
| kkathman | buz: same here | 05:57 |
| NTolerance | that's easy when the countries are small | 05:57 |
| KaiL_ | oh, and in .ch also to make holes everywhere ;) | 05:57 |
| kkathman | Texas is unusual, as it does NOT have a state income tax, other states do tho | 05:57 |
| NTolerance | i hate income tax | 05:57 |
| buz | yeah those fucking tunnels sure cost a bundle | 05:58 |
| buz | but swiss roads are top | 05:58 |
| buz | i woudlnt want to live in texas even if they paid me to do so | 05:58 |

| kkathman | lol...you've been reading too much propaganda | 06:00 |
| kkathman | and they call US ignorant of other geographies :) | 06:00 |
| buz | besides, as a swiss i have my own views on what constitutes a democracy | 06:00 |
| kkathman | buz: well doesnt everyone :) | 06:01 |
| buz | well by swiss standards, there are very very few democracies in the world | 06:01 |
| Tezkah | its time! | 06:01 |
| kkathman | and the Swiss have been delegated as the benchmark for this? | 06:01 |
| KaiL_ | kkathman: in most parts of Europe it's not allowed to carry weapons | 06:01 |
| Tezkah | ITS TIME TO HATE THE SWISS | 06:01 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: ahh thats too bad, Im sorry | 06:02 |
| KaiL_ | but it's allowed to talk about sex everywhere ;) | 06:02 |
| buz | yeah and teach evolution | 06:02 |
| kkathman | again, buz, you are showing your ignorance | 06:02 |
| Tezkah | I'm sick of their good reputation | 06:02 |
| buz | no its quite objective if you consider the power the people actually wield, not just their greedy representants | 06:02 |
| kkathman | you believe too much of your press | 06:02 |
| Tezkah | I'm sick of their cheese, I'm sick of their chocolote, and I'm especially sick of their blcocky heroin, Heidi! | 06:03 |
| buz | i know enough americans who refuse to go to the south | 06:03 |
| kkathman | lol Tezkah :) | 06:03 |
| KaiL_ | kkathman: now explain, how you see europe | 06:03 |
| Tezkah | I mean, every other nation in the world has taken their turn being maligned and slandered. But not the Swi-iss! | 06:03 |
| buz | not true | 06:03 |
| buz | ed fagan slandered us quite liberally | 06:03 |
| Tezkah | Well, that situation is over as of now. *Move* over America; there's a new asshole on the map! I've had it up to here with your skiing heroes! I've had it up to here with your mountains! I've had it up to here with your secret *bank* accounts! From now on, Switzerland, your name is mud. | 06:03 |
| buz | so we keep your money | 06:03 |
| buz | lets see what happens on the financial markets LOL | 06:04 |
| Tezkah | Yeah. It's *war* between the Swiss and me. "But, they've never done anything wrong," you say. | 06:04 |
| Tezkah | What about the clock? | 06:04 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: I tend to have a non myopic view. First, I have only traveled to Europe a few times, and thus, wont make outlandish statements that I dont know firsthand | 06:04 |
| Tezkah | Huh? If they hadn't invented the clock, I'd still be in bed. . .dreaming! | 06:04 |
| buz | define travel | 06:04 |
| KaiL_ | kkathman: I thought about moral here | 06:04 |
| KaiL_ | ...sex everywhere | 06:05 |
| buz | 4 week trips dont give much of a real view on anything | 06:05 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: I do work with my colleagues in the UK and the Netherlands, and they tell me things that I have no reason to doubt so whatever | 06:05 |
| KaiL_ | buz: and if he'd been in Amsterdam.. oh my..:) | 06:05 |
| buz | never made it there | 06:05 |
| buz | but zurich is quite close | 06:05 |
| buz | (only the swiss are a bit uptight) | 06:05 |
| Tezkah | is it true that in France there are no TVs? | 06:06 |
| Tezkah | and the kids have to stare off into the distance | 06:06 |
| KaiL_ | what, drugs are legal in Zurich? | 06:06 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: I would probably agree that my perception of Europe is much more liberal and permissive by my own standards than I would enjoy. But thats just my own personal choice. What you like is what you like :) | 06:06 |
| Tezkah | because tehy're forced to drink a bottle of wine per meal? | 06:06 |
| buz | mhh situation is kinda like in holland | 06:06 |
| buz | nobody really cares for pot that much | 06:06 |
| buz | the police will occasionally raid some places but aside of that, you can go smoke it at the lake just fine | 06:06 |
| KaiL_ | Tezkah: not really | 06:06 |
| buz | kkathman: you say yourself it's more liberal | 06:07 |
| buz | for my taste, it's not even liberal enough | 06:07 |
| buz | so texas is a nogo for me | 06:07 |
| KaiL_ | oh, you need your daily joint? :) | 06:08 |
| buz | na i quit about a year ago | 06:08 |
| kkathman | buz, yes I believe that my perception from talking to others that it is more liberal and permissive | 06:08 |
| buz | it almost certainly is | 06:09 |
| kkathman | again, I have not lived there, so I cannot speak first hand | 06:09 |
| buz | but the lawsystem is very different | 06:09 |
| buz | it's not common law, it's actually written law | 06:09 |
| Tezkah | Canada is crazy | 06:09 |
| kkathman | I dont believe its fair to criticize another person's country or place unless you have experienced it firsthand...or at least qualify that to some degree | 06:09 |
| Tezkah | it's like Europe and America had a baby | 06:10 |
| KaiL_ | Tezkah: the good of both or the bad? ;) | 06:10 |
| buz | i reserve the right to criticise countries that go about attacking others without having lived there | 06:10 |
| Tezkah | depends | 06:10 |
| Tezkah | theres few guns | 06:11 |
| kkathman | Every country has its pros and cons, and there must be things appealing about them all, as few countries have ceased to exist by mass exodus :) | 06:11 |
| buz | there's actually shitloads of guns in switzerland, yet we have much less morders per capita | 06:11 |
| kkathman | buz I agree thats why I dont criticize, but you violated your own statement by what you said, as you have never lived in the south or in Texas, if I heard you correctly | 06:12 |
| rommer | buz: any blacks in switzerland? | 06:12 |
| buz | not so many | 06:12 |
| KaiL_ | rommer: does that matter? | 06:12 |
| kkathman | Some of the nicest, most courteous and kind people I know live in the southern US. | 06:12 |
| kkathman | and thats first hand knowledge | 06:12 |
| buz | there nice people and assholes everywhere | 06:12 |
| kkathman | buz yep absolutely true | 06:13 |
| buz | but looking a political decisions, by my standards, there's more assholes in the south | 06:13 |
| kkathman | well,buz, isnt that presumptuous? Do you call anyone an "asshole" if they dont agree with you? | 06:13 |
| buz | i call people assholes who deny rights to other people | 06:14 |
| rommer | kkathman: thats right | 06:14 |
| buz | like it would affect anyone negatively if gays were allowed to marry | 06:14 |
| amu | thats's all nice ... but totally offtopic :) let's go back to the great kubuntu desktop ;) | 06:14 |
| kkathman | deny rights to other people... hmm ok..typically thats a legal thing :) | 06:14 |
| Tezkah | the great kubuntu desktop prevented me, a homosexual, from getting married! | 06:14 |
| kkathman | amu: good idea :) Politics and religion are usually not tolerated well in mixed companies :) | 06:14 |

| amu | buz: could you please resent it | 06:18 |
| kkathman | KaiL_: My philosophy, is to always keep discussions elevated to issues, and stay out of making them personal, like calling people names or attacking their family or country. That does nothing for discussion or debate, it only flames people. Typically those that do it, are ill-informed any way. There are few forums for such discussions, unfortunately :) | 06:18 |
| buz | hand me your email | 06:18 |

| kkathman | so..anyway..back to kubuntu where we belong :) | 06:18 |

| v3trae | using kubuntu doesn't obligate you to use JUST kde does it? | 06:20 |
| NTolerance | no | 06:20 |
| NTolerance | you can install the ubuntu-desktop get GNOME | 06:20 |
| Tm_T | yes, or I have to use my war axe ... | 06:20 |

| Tm_T | sometimes | 06:20 |
| KaiL_ | amu: "knet"? | 06:21 |
| amu | KaiL_: yep | 06:21 |
| v3trae | there a way to search through apt? | 06:21 |
| NTolerance | sudo apt-get install synaptic | 06:21 |
| KaiL_ | v3trae: apt-cache search ;) | 06:21 |
| Tm_T | v3trae: oh yes, "apt-cache search foo" | 06:21 |
| NTolerance | then run synaptic to search | 06:21 |
| Tm_T | NTolerance: no need to | 06:22 |
| NTolerance | i know about apt-cache search | 06:22 |
| amu | The Knet is a frontend to pppd. It is designed primarily | 06:22 |

| kkathman | dewey when you installed, did you pay particular attention to the resolution screen? | 06:53 |
| amu | sure i'm here | 06:53 |
| kkathman | alot of peoople dont | 06:53 |
| dewey-ibook | kkathman: it went by me and did not ask me what it should have been. | 06:55 |
| NTolerance | does cupsys have to be enabled to print to a Windows network printer? | 06:55 |
| dewey-ibook | so is there an xfdrake to change screen size? | 06:56 |
| dewey-ibook | amu: I am running an ibook at wrong screen size? | 06:56 |
| kkathman | dewey well ok, you'll need to manually enable it I think through mods to your xorg.conf file | 06:56 |
| amu | dewey-ibook: the 12" is "1024x768" | 06:56 |
| kkathman | you may need to check out man xorg to view the parms | 06:56 |
| dewey-ibook | kkathman: manually hmm ok | 06:57 |
| kkathman | yes, Im afraid I dont know of a GUI tool that will change your XORG | 06:58 |
| amu | NTolerance: yep | 06:58 |
| amu | kkathman: kvim ? | 06:58 |
| kkathman | amu maybe that would help then? Thanks :) | 06:58 |
| Tm_T | kkathman: gui for edit xorg.conf? any text editor =) | 06:59 |
| Tm_T | haha | 06:59 |
| Tezkah | emacs! | 06:59 |
| kkathman | thats what we're all about here helping others | 06:59 |
| amu | kkathman: *eg* you ask for a guitool, here it is | 06:59 |
| kkathman | Tm_T GUI dude...not text editor :) | 06:59 |
| Tezkah | so I have a laptop, which has a monitor out port | 06:59 |
| NTolerance | thx amu | 06:59 |
| Tm_T | kkathman: well it's only text... what's the problem then? | 07:00 |
| Tezkah | right now it just shows a duplicate of my screen | 07:00 |
| Tezkah | can I use it to extend the desktop? or would I have to edit xorg.conf and stuff? | 07:00 |
| Tezkah | because if tat, its not really useful | 07:00 |
| kkathman | Tm_T well there's no problem if you want to wade through the miles of man xorg settings and dribble | 07:00 |
| amu | .. what's about wrinting one ( a guitool for X ) ? | 07:00 |
| kkathman | People installing Ubuntu really skip that screen alot | 07:01 |
| Tm_T | kkathman: hmm hmm, you gaot a point there, small one at least :) | 07:01 |
| Tezkah | kkathman: yeah, my friend did that with debian | 07:01 |
| dewey-ibook | hmmmm checked xorg.conf and it is set-up for 1024x768 so why will it not use that set-up? | 07:01 |
| kkathman | Biggest mistakes in kubuntu: 1) Not installing hoary 1st, 2) Not paying attention to the resolution screen, 3) not hooking your computer to the network before installation | 07:02 |
| amu | gui-tool for X, any volunteer's 1 step forward | 07:02 |

| === kkathman steps back and leaves amu out front | ||
| Tm_T | kkathman: youre not pointless then ;p | 07:03 |
| dewey-ibook | kkathman: where in the kubuntu does it ask for anything about resolution screen size? | 07:03 |
| kkathman | Tm_T true that...Im never pointless :) | 07:03 |
| kkathman | dewey-ibook: during the install | 07:03 |
| Tezkah | yeah, it offers you various choices for the resolution | 07:03 |
| dewey-ibook | I did 2 installs on this ibook and kubuntu did not ask me about it? | 07:03 |
| Tezkah | its ncurses I think | 07:03 |
| kkathman | well at least it does during the hoary install | 07:03 |

| Tezkah | I downloaded the kubuntu hoary install disk | 07:06 |
| kkathman | NTolerance: if you install hoary 1st, you get all the gtk environment. This allows you to have a complete UI to fall back on if/when your KDE goes blinky | 07:06 |
| Tezkah | ah | 07:06 |
| kkathman | NTolerance: also, the kubuntu install disk has many things on the gtk side missing and they are trying to fix that now for breezy. This causes several things not to work properly | 07:06 |
| Tezkah | I am contemplating installing XFCE4, but then I'd feel lame since I spent so much time setting KDE up | 07:07 |
| kkathman | NTolerance: finally, many "configuration" things are taken care of in the hoary install, and not in the kubuntu install (because they wanted a smaller image) | 07:07 |
| === ikypakis [t9@195.245.229.17] has joined #Kubuntu | ||

| Tezkah | how would you backup KDE? | 07:08 |

| amu | .kde in our homedir is the important thing :) | 07:12 |

| NTolerance | did you install kubuntu or ubuntu? | 07:13 |

| amu | installed ubuntu with a CD and run apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 07:13 |
| NTolerance | ah | 07:13 |
| NTolerance | i need to do that then | 07:14 |
| kkathman | NTolerance: its possible that by the next rel - i.e. breezy they will fix the Kubuntu disk too | 07:14 |
| NTolerance | i would certainly hope so | 07:14 |
| kkathman | amu - as did I..Ive had no problems | 07:14 |
| amu | NTolerance: it works also, if i install kubuntu and install the ubuntu-desktop | 07:14 |

| gdh | amu: Perhaps it's PDFs created assuming Tahoma/Verdana but without those fonts embedded in the PDF itself? | 09:38 |
| amu | miserable_failur: i guess, the original document is written with another font, which isnt installed at your sys. | 09:38 |
| gdh | miserable_failur: I mean... | 09:38 |
| amu | gdh: ^ | 09:38 |
| gdh | =) | 09:38 |
| gdh | miserable_failur: try installing msttcorefonts then retry | 09:39 |
| gdh | (multiverse) | 09:39 |
| miserable_failur | gdh: ok, doing it | 09:40 |
| miserable_failur | but other pdf readers like evince extract the font from the pdf file and render it correctly, kpdf 3.4 on kubuntu doesn't as it seems, kpdf on gentoo did it | 09:41 |
| gdh | Ah OK I forgot that bit. | 09:42 |
| miserable_failur | all: try too look at http://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf (I don't like the DMCA, it's just the first pdf that shows up with a google search for pdf) with kpdf. Is the font serifed, is the kerning ok? | 09:45 |
| gdh | No, it looks like shit | 09:46 |
| gdh | sans-serif all run together | 09:46 |
| KaiL | same here | 09:46 |
| miserable_failur | it looks a-ok with evince | 09:47 |
| gdh | and yay msttcorefonts made no difference whatsoever =) | 09:47 |
| KaiL | and that file looks ok in kpdf on gentoo? | 09:49 |
| pv_ | Here: xpdf does not show any text, kpdf shows run-together serif fonts, gv shows it correctly, evince shows it correctly. | 09:49 |
| gdh | heh, was just installing xpdf =) | 09:50 |
| gdh | no doubt acroread will show it perfectly but I think it contains its own licensed fonts anyway | 09:50 |
| miserable_failur | KaiL: I can't tell it for that file specifically, since I rm -rf 'ed gentoo last week, but I never had problems with the new kpdf on gentoo | 09:50 |
| miserable_failur | kpdf before kde 3.4 messed the fonts always up like this, I thought the problem was solved with 3.4 | 09:51 |
| gdh | Here xpdf shows it in serif with correct kerning | 09:51 |
| gdh | (xpdf 3.00-11ubuntu3) | 09:52 |
| gdh | and that's with a few 'cannot convert string ... to type FontStruct warnings. | 09:52 |
| pv_ | Hmm. Same version of xpdf, but I get Error: No display font for 'Courier' | 09:52 |
| pv_ | And more of such error messages. | 09:52 |

| KaiL | Tm_T: no more amarok icon? | 10:24 |
| kay | And I presume, it includes the dbus stuff also | 10:24 |
| KaiL | kay: dbus already got updated | 10:24 |

| KaiL | Tm_T: the big icon for krita looks nice | 10:25 |
| Tm_T | KaiL: no more amarok icon? | 10:25 |

| kay | I wonder if they will put the Koffice 1.4 in Breezy now | 10:31 |
| kay | Or wait till they migrated everything to gcc4? | 10:31 |
| kay | btw, DID gcc 4 break ABI? | 10:31 |
| KaiL | kay: 3.4 already did | 10:32 |
| kay | That i know, almost every 3.x did, did 4.0.0 ? | 10:32 |
| KaiL | koffice 1.4 will get into breezy if it's final afaik | 10:32 |
| psn | kay: gcc 4 broke all sorts of things | 10:33 |
| psn | kay: it even miscompiles kde | 10:33 |
| kay | As far as I know, gcc 4.0.1 pre would not | 10:34 |
| kay | And I saw that Kubuntu gcc4 packages had some CVS in it | 10:34 |
| psn | kay: well if they've updated in the last week or so it might work now... | 10:35 |
| psn | kay: previous version was broken compiling kde | 10:35 |
| kay | Well, then I am quite confident they will be using the gcc 4 with patches | 10:36 |
| kay | It is actually quite normal for Debian alikes to not use baseline gcc's | 10:36 |
| kay | There never really was one official gcc release that was good enough to compile what we now name Universe | 10:37 |
| kay | They always had to patch gcc to work for Debian | 10:37 |
| psn | kay: no what I mean was that ubuntu's gcc4 broke with kde | 10:37 |

| KaiL | bingo | 11:28 |
| KaiL | quite interesting tool... | 11:29 |
| KaiL | amu: still awake? | 11:29 |
| Tm_T | shiv: I installed it | 11:29 |
| Tm_T | and used it | 11:29 |
| Tm_T | it's ok | 11:29 |
| shiv | ya but i can't follow the commands | 11:30 |

| KaiL | and tell me every problem it reports | 11:31 |

| shiv | can't do it | 11:33 |
| shiv | :( | 11:33 |
| KaiL | why not? | 11:34 |
| shiv | should i type this | 11:34 |
| shiv | $ sudo dpkg -i kubuntu-servicemenu | 11:34 |
| shiv | ? | 11:34 |
| shiv | i am poor at commandlines | 11:34 |

| KaiL | that was for simple | 11:35 |

| shiv | cannot stat `kubuntu-servicemenu.desktop': No such file or directory | 11:36 |
| KaiL | and that's the second :) | 11:36 |
| KaiL | you need to go into the folder, to which you downloaded both | 11:37 |
| shiv | both? | 11:37 |
| shiv | are there 2 files? | 11:37 |
| apollo2011 | I am looking at switching to Kubuntu. I am curious as to how easy it is to upgrade when a new relase is made | 11:37 |
| KaiL | shiv: a package including 2 files ;) | 11:37 |
| KaiL | apollo2011: as every debian system upgrading is (at least normally) VERY easy | 11:38 |
| apollo2011 | KaiL: so you can upgrade and there won't be any problems created between inconsistencies? | 11:38 |
| shiv | cool got it | 11:38 |
| KaiL | apollo2011: this box has been debian/potato -> debian/woody -> debian/sarge -> ubuntu/hoary -> ubuntu/breezy | 11:40 |
| KaiL | does that say all? :) | 11:40 |
| apollo2011 | I guess so | 11:41 |
| apollo2011 | you can actually upgrade to a different debian base distro? | 11:41 |
| KaiL | problem on doing such upgrades are packages with are lower versions, but still required because of configuration issues | 11:42 |
| shiv | how do i open konquerer as root | 11:42 |
| apollo2011 | I am on SuSE 9.1 and it seems to be becoming flaky and have some general acting weirdness and I would like to upgrade but it is very hard to upgrade SuSE without having problems. | 11:42 |
| shiv | i am not able to copy the file to the /usr/...folder | 11:42 |
| KaiL | for example with upgradeing from sarge to hoary you need to downgrade hal | 11:42 |
| pv_ | btw, WHAT does "Pure KGX" mean | 11:42 |
| KaiL | shiv: for that the sudo is ;)) | 11:42 |
| KaiL | KGX? context? | 11:43 |
| apollo2011 | KaiL: ok. interesting. I think I am going to install kubuntu on a different partition and see what I make of it. I already tried the Live cd some and was pretty impressed. | 11:43 |
| shiv | ya | 11:43 |
| pv_ | KaiL, title of kubuntu.org, "Kubuntu - Pure KGX" | 11:43 |
| shiv | but i need to keep the 2 files in the directory of apps to work, right? | 11:43 |
| kay | KDE GNU and X11 = KGX | 11:44 |
| KaiL | shiv: you copy then into the depth of /usr and then you can delete them from where you copied | 11:45 |
| Riddell | \sh: you pinged? | 11:45 |
| Riddell | KDE GNU and Unix/Linux I'd say | 11:45 |
| kay | KGX is an acronym for the free software combination of KDE/GNU/linuX for a graphical workstation. | 11:45 |

| kay | That is from wp:kgx | 11:45 |
| kay | I always thought it was about the X | 11:46 |
| shiv | i am trying to copy the downloaded file to this folder /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus | 11:46 |
| kay | Linux is the Gnu kernel for now, so.... | 11:46 |
| shiv | is that not right? | 11:46 |
| KaiL | Riddell: as you are here: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=23981 (thanks go to shiv, who found it) | 11:46 |
| Tm_T | shiv: its correct | 11:46 |
| Tm_T | shiv: but you have to be root (or use sudo) | 11:46 |
| shiv | but it won't let me copy | 11:47 |
| shiv | says access denied | 11:47 |
| Tm_T | as I said... | 11:47 |

| KaiL | afaik there's also sudo -c or so ;) | 11:49 |
| Tm_T | su -c | 11:49 |

| === darkaudit [~bpack@pool-151-205-47-40.clrk.east.verizon.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| kay | The point of not using -c is that you get a "login" that way | 11:50 |
| kay | After sudo bash, I have a session as root, and as KaiL says.... | 11:50 |
| kay | with "sudo su -" it may even be login session | 11:51 |
| kay | So what's the point of disabling root login anyway :p | 11:51 |

| DaBlade | I live in GMT+1 (Norway), yet the clock in Kicker is an hour too fast. The time here is 23:53, but it shows 00:53 | 11:55 |
| DaBlade | I can change the timezone, but then it says Moscow or something. I just want it to be the default timezone, so I can see the date under the clock. How do I change this? | 11:55 |
| kay | What time is your BIOS clock set to? | 11:56 |
| === _piotr [~piotr@dzo47.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| kay | Do you dual boot? | 11:57 |
| DaBlade | yes | 11:57 |
| DaBlade | Two hard drives. hdb1 has winxp. | 11:57 |
| kay | Then you normally have local time in BIOS | 11:58 |
| kay | That means, it should not get corrected at all | 11:58 |
| DaBlade | I never use windoze...my dad does. I dunno what he does with it.. lol | 11:59 |
| kay | It's normally nicer that way, for Linux alone, BIOS should be UTC and you should select your timezone and be done | 11:59 |
| kay | But Windows doesn't do it that way... | 11:59 |
| DaBlade | what a shock that it doesn't follow standards... lol | 12:00 |
| kay | So, i guess, you should set your timezone to UTC | 12:00 |
| kay | Can't blame them, an OS is free to use the hardware as it sees fit | 12:00 |
| kay | You see, your BIOS is +1 already | 12:00 |
| kay | And now you come and tell Linux, you want +1 display | 12:01 |
| kay | You get GMT+2 in the end | 12:01 |
| DaBlade | umm...why? | 12:01 |
| KaiL | you got asked on install, if the clock is set to local time or to UTC | 12:01 |
| DaBlade | And I don't want the location to show, cuz then I don't see the date | 12:01 |
| kay | When you run tzconfig, what does it say | 12:01 |
| DaBlade | I'll have a look | 12:01 |
| KaiL | now we need to find a way to change that later ;9 | 12:01 |
| kay | DaBlade: You can turn it off in context menu | 12:01 |
| DaBlade | dablade@LinuxP2P:~$ tzconfig | 12:01 |
| DaBlade | Your current time zone is set to Europe/Oslo | 12:01 |
| DaBlade | Do you want to change that? [n] : | 12:01 |
