Ghetekok two more questions for the channel. where are my harddrives (they are in the storage media folder but i cant access them) and how do i make numlock on at startup12:11
=== aseigo watches kynaptic pin the processor for a good 20 minutes, ponders if its just broken and safe to kill .... or if he should give it all the rope it needs
nmorseso what do I do, if the troubleshooting on those sound pages doesn't help at all?12:13
Ghetektake out your webcam12:14
nmorseI have no webcam12:19
nmorseIt's a laptop12:19
Blissexaseigo: odds are it is fsafe to kill. Most APT stuff is idempotent.12:20

kkathmanits just that the re-layed out the menu options to be more productive12:56
kkathmanits not photoshop by a long shot12:56
Liz4rdoh god no, photoshop is WAY better :)12:57
kkathmanGIMP has about 75% of Photoshop's functionality, but that 25% makes photoshop many times more productive12:57
smouchemenus and preferences are a disaster in Audacity; I'm gonna have to try Cooledit with Wine, or go back to recording sound in Windows I guess.12:57
kkathmanphotoshop is one of the only programs I know thats worth its price12:57
kkathmanyeah Photoshop in Wine isnt useable really12:58
Liz4rdno?12:58
Liz4rddam12:58
kkathmanwell Liz4rd  what resolution do you have on your monitor when you design?12:58

kkathmanI have 1280 x 102412:59

Liz4rd:( man do i missdreamweaver01:01
kkathmanI could get by with Quanta if I absolutely had to01:01

nmorseOk, there are two drivers which do ALi chipsets and one is built into the kernel01:03
Liz4rdi want to learn a programing language so bad :P01:03
smouchecarrier pigeons are the way to go.  or smoke signals.01:03
_natephp is nice, don't get me wrong, i just like perl a lot more :)01:03
kkathmannice smouche :)01:04
_nateLiz4rd: perl is a good place to start01:04
nmorseOne for the 5451 chipset, which I have, and one for newer chipsets, which is built into the kernel01:04
kkathmanperl is ok, but its bad for working with databases01:04
Liz4rdlmfao at smouche01:04
kkathmanits nice for little stuff01:04
smouchedrums, tin cans on string, yodeling.01:04
_natekkathman: thats where php comes in, the lil bugger01:04

_nateblech01:05
kkathmanbut perl is fast and easy to learn01:05
_nateyep01:05
kkathmanshoot I learned perl in one day01:05
_nateyeah, you NEED something like PHP or ASP for ecommerce01:05
kkathmanASP is basically gone01:05
kkathmanits ASP.net now01:05
_natemeh, i think newegg still uses it01:05
_nateoh, right01:06
transgressand yet... it still sucks with .net added to the ned01:06
transgressend01:06
transgresswoot.com uses asp... and they also go down like nobodies business... 01:06
kkathman.net suxxors01:06
Liz4rdi agree01:06
kkathmanits about as proprietary as it gets01:07
_nateyeah, gotta hate most proprietary01:07
_natei like standardization, we NEED standardization01:07
smouchekkathman, you really learned perl in a day?01:07
Liz4rdid believe it01:07
kkathmanyep...its quite easy01:07
_nateit would help with linux development01:07
Ghetekhow do i bring down the icon size in konqueror... its huge!01:08
_nateperl is pretty easy, reminds me of bash01:08
kkathmanpeople like python for some reason...I think its more restrictive than perl01:08
smoucheno prior programming experience here, and i need to start with something01:08
_natelots of stuff is similar01:08
smoucheit would be nice to finally get past "Hello World"01:08
kkathmanGhetek: control center -> fonts01:08
Ghetekthnx01:08
_natepython is kindof neat, in the sense it enforces white-space organization01:08
transgressman thank god for bittorrent... i'd feel upset if i couldn't get this mp3 player near filled up01:08
smouchejust once I want to see a programming tutorial start with "echo Goodbye cruel world" instead01:09
kkathmansmouche: if you can do "Hello Word", get time and date, and do simple math, you can do about 80% of everything you need :)01:09
kkathmanhehe01:09
transgress_nate: that's why my boss hates it... he's more of a quick hack type person... and he makes the ugliest shell scripts ever01:09
_natetransgress: ick01:09
transgressgranted they work01:09
transgressbut i'd hate to debug them when he finds a bug01:09

smoucheWhite space organization?  What's that, redistricting in Texas?01:10
kkathmanlol01:10
_nateha01:10
smoucheheh heh, sorry, a little punchy today01:10
_nateno, it makes you use tabs01:10
kkathmanhey I love redistricting :)01:10
_nateand every new line is a new command, so no forgetting ;'s01:10
transgressi don't... they keep redistricting here because the white parents don't want their white kids going to school with the black kids...01:11
smoucheI like tabs.  Quite happy with the way kate marks tabs, and keeps track of wrapping, visually.  Don't know why more editors don't do that01:11
kkathmantransgress: thats not redistricting in Texas :)01:11
_natei think we need more africans in the US01:11

kkathmanBlissex well that and taking money from more affluent schools and giving it to "poor" administrators who buy big cars, boats, and summer homes01:14

_natetransgress: The self-centered rap culture has got to go.  thats not real, not real people.  Its pride at any cost01:14
Liz4rdfucking wannabes01:15

kkathmantransgress: uhmm...I dont think I'd wish death on anyone01:15
Liz4rdoh ma crib nigga me and ma homes busten a cap yo01:15

_natetransgress: exactly01:19
judaxexactly? you guys are cracking me up01:19
transgress_nate: so wouldn't the problem be more of not a black, rap-culture, but of modern culture?  seeing as those things are the ruling influences over the majority of america?  and britain... and most non 3rd world countries?01:19
smouchewell, my soundcard is lewd, blued and tattooed, and I'm pissed that apparently I can't record in stereo through the mic jack.01:19

kkathmanbe back a bit later :)01:34
aseigo_nate: that's not a bad idea either =)01:34
nmorseYeah, XComposite allows for individual transparency01:34
smouchesynaptic's ok, but kpackage makes it so easy to check dependencies etc.  Everything's hyperlinked; much easier to search.01:35
transgressdoes kpackage have the functionality that synaptic offers?  because i try to limit my gtk apps01:35
JormundgandOne thing from Synaptic I miss in Kynaptic is the ability to browse dependencies, depended packages etc.01:35
JormundgandOther than that, I love Kynaptic.01:35
_natebrb01:35
smouchetransgress, I believe so.01:35
nmorseI really like Synaptic, but if kynaptic's search was done like Synaptic's I'd be a switcher01:35
transgressi will have to look at it01:35

ChinaCatJonesverden01 i am running straight kubuntu at the moment, but i've gone that route in the past09:28
verden01is it worth it09:29
verden01i've been running just kubuntu b4 but decided to try the other way09:29
ChinaCatJonesverden: i really kde better, but gnome is much more stable09:31
verden01i did this with the thought of being able to have a choice of which desktop enviroment i use but i mainley like kde09:31
verden01i also used the reiserfs instead or ext3 and find it faster09:32
ChinaCatJonesi agree with your idea, kde actually behaved a little better when I did the kubuntu-desktop upgrade, go figure09:33
haydenits comes up with kpersonalizer when you first run kde after getting kubuntu-desktop dont it09:34
verden01ubuntu seems more stable so i thought that kde would be more stable installed on ubuntu    hope i'm right09:34
ChinaCatJonesit does do that, and if you install from the cd it will want to update a lot of the libs at your first apt-get, it will offer you the personalizer again then09:36
ChinaCatJonesi'm too into the transparency things for gnome at the moment, though transparency is still not quite ready for prime time in kubuntu09:37
verden01i'll have to get programs setup up b4 i try anything like that09:38

Diablo-D3rodolfo: nothing11:11
verden01both have good applications11:12
verden01that youcan use from either desktop11:12
Diablo-D3verden01: that doesnt reqiure the actual desktop to be installed11:12
Diablo-D3gnome is something like 150 packages (about a quarter of which kubuntu-desktop uses too)11:12
verden01k11:12
Diablo-D3installing gimp doesnt require thsoe 150 packages... it requires like 15.11:13
verden01i know as i had kubuntu installed and also installed many gnome apps11:13
rodolfofor example if ubuntu has synaptic, kubuntu not, if I install ubuntu and then kubuntu-desktop, will synaptic be shown in the kde-menu or do I have to add it?11:15
verden01i'm not sure as i haven't done it yet but my guess would be that it is in the kde-menu somewhere11:16

steffenstrobelhi everybody, i have a problem with my soundcard! I have an iBook G3 and external speakers connected to it. When I start Kubuntu the Sound isn't working. When I unplug the external speakers and replug them in the sound is working... How can I fix this? Because I don't want to plug out and then plug in the speakers everytime i reboot... ;-) Thanks!!!04:01

kkathmansteffenstrobel: so if you boot with the speakers NOT plugged in everyting works?04:20
kkathmanThanks Tm_T :p04:20

KaiLthe touchpad04:21
Tm_Tok04:21
KaiLkkathman: is that normal, that there's on synaptics on FSC?04:21
steffenstrobelyes, the sound is comming out of the internal speakers (low volume!) and when i plugin the external ones the internal one is muted and the external ones are playing at a normal volumes...04:21
kkathmanKaiL: not sure  I understand your question.04:22
KaiLthe touchpad seams not to like the synaptics driver....04:22
kkathmansteffenstrobel: so you want to listen to your internal speakers over your external ones?04:22
=== astro76 [~james@astro76.user] has joined #kubuntu
kkathmanKaiL: Ahh you are on a laptop then?04:22
KaiLthere's a FSC Lifebook E8010 left to me ;)04:23
steffenstrobelno, i'm only using the external ones, and when i boot up i want that these speakers are immediately working04:23
kkathmanKaiL: most "touchpads", at least in windows (dont know that much about Linux touchpads) have very specific drivers just for them04:23
kkathmanKaiL: its not just a mouse substitute, in other words...does synaptics work with a mouse?04:24
KaiL"normally" you only need the so called synaptics driver...04:24
KaiL...normally04:24
steffenstrobelkkathman: do you know understand what i'm meaning? ;-)04:25
kkathmansteffenstrobel: Ohh ok I gotcha.  On some computers, especially those that mute the internals, the circuitry is activated, only when the actual plug goes in..i.e. there is a micro switch that disables the internals and activates the external. When you are booting..the system and the speakers are not plugged in, its as if the device doesnt exist.04:26
Diablo-D3I have returned04:26
kkathmansteffenstrobel: Diablo-D3  may have come across this phenomenon04:26
kkathmanKaiL: so is the touchpad just NOT working or is it like oversensitive or erratic?04:27
Diablo-D3kkathman: whats wrong?04:27
steffenstrobelDiablo-D3: Do you know something that might help me?04:27
Diablo-D3what?04:28
steffenstrobelDiablo-D3: i have a strange sound problem, scroll a litte bit up and you'll find it04:28
kkathmanDiablo-D3: steffenstrobel has an i-book. when his external spkrs are plugged in, music is fine on boot, when they arent, no sound in the externals after boot04:28
Diablo-D3kkathman: dunno04:28
kkathmanI think the machine isnt detecting the sound, because its activated when the plug goes in, ...typical of those that mute internal spkrs04:29
steffenstrobelkkathman: no! other way around!04:29
kkathmanohh yeah sorry04:29
Diablo-D3btw, about that touchpad, almost all laptops use synaptics touchpad04:29
Diablo-D3apple, gateway, ibm, dell, compaq, hp04:30
steffenstrobelkkathman: external speaker in -> no sound, not plugged in -> sound, first in then out then in -> sound ;-)04:30
kkathmansteffenstrobel: uhmm.. ok..you mean ON BOOT right...when your spkrs ARE plugged in on boot you DONT get sound?04:31
KaiLreinstall - this time NORMAL mode, not server04:31

Diablo-D3it sounds like its applying your mixer settings04:31
Diablo-D3on boot04:31
steffenstrobelkkathman: exactly! but when i then unplug them and after that plug them in again the sound magically is working....04:31
Diablo-D3but after boot music04:32

Jormundgandamu: Again, no change.08:51

renbolicious```...08:52
Tm_Tyes08:52
JormundgandShould that be apt-got?08:52
renbolicious```kubuntu is not different right?08:52
andreamu i think yes..but how i confirm?08:52
trekerenbolicious```: if you installed kubuntu-desktop on ubuntu then you have the same thing as kubuntu with some extra stuff08:53
amuJormundgand: could you delete all files from /var/lib/apt08:53
amuJormundgand: could you delete all files from /var/lib/apt/lists08:53
renbolicious```treke: thx08:53
Jormundgandamu: I fail to see how that will help matters.08:53
renbolicious```do u also know how to get my native language08:53
renbolicious```?08:53
renbolicious```because kde is in us-englisch08:53
Jormundgandrenbolicious: look for packages marked -de.08:53
trekethere is probably a package for it08:53
Jormundgand(I assume from your use of -sch- that you are German.)08:54

amuJormundgand: probably a broken, filelist  08:54
Diablo-D3Riddell: hey08:55
teknoprepdoes kubuntu successfullly upgrade yet08:55
teknoprepby doing a apt-get upgrade08:55
Diablo-D3Riddell: so, I cant get that to work08:55
Diablo-D3Riddell: and kdevelop fails to load some of the documentation plugins on load (such as the one required for kde toc docs)08:55
Diablo-D3Riddell: so I just give up08:56
amuJormundgand: the files under /var/lib/apt/list/ are generated while your running apt-get update 08:56
amu... if you delete them nothing happens :)08:56
Diablo-D3Riddell: if it gets fixed, Ill reconsider using kdevelop08:56
Diablo-D3Riddell: otherwise, Ill stick with the age old method involving vim and a few xterms08:56
Jormundgandamu: No effect, errors are still there.08:56
amuonly with my 2 lines ? 08:57
Jormundgandamu: Since removal of the other lines had no effect we can say with certainty they are not causing extra error.08:58
amuJormundgand: there are 3 possibilies that can happen, 99% your sources.list is wrong, 0,9% server gernerates at the moment a new packages.gz, 0.1% you cannot write in that dir08:59
JormundgandExcept we already ruled out any error in the sources.list since the errors recurred when I only had hoary-security main and universe enabled.08:59
amuJormundgand: what happen if your sources.list is empty ? same error? 09:00
JormundgandNo errors when all lines commented.09:00
amuthan enable the first, rerun apt-get update, what happen? 09:01
Jormundgandamu: First line is cdrom, causes no errors. Next line is regular repository, no errors. All lines except security main and universe cause no errors.09:01
amuJormundgand: the last possibility is if you use a proxy :) 09:02
JormundgandWhich I don't, so don't try it. How do I turn off Caps Lock support?09:02
amucan happen sometimes, not correctly setuped proxies deliver the broken packages.gz  09:04
JormundgandAnd what is wrong with sudo under Kubuntu?09:04
JormundgandI get errors for some reason, but it works.09:05
amuJormundgand: so the entry for security is wrong, checked it with 3 maschines here, works fine for me and millions other :) 09:06
JormundgandIf so why does it work for restricted and multiverse?09:07
amuas i know there isnt any secu support for restricted and multiverse the file is 0  09:09
