_ronhey. How do I install the kernel headers? 12:06
_piotrI find it unbelievable that the 17' owerbook is over 100 euro more expansive here in austrian than in germany12:06
amuthe 12" is good if you're away from home, rocks with 4,5h battery live ... 15" i a medium  youcan use it as well at home, better at home is a normal desktop :)12:06

Pupeno_piotr: your usage is similar to mine. I'm trying to get a 17" notebook, I was interested on an eMachine: something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=177&item=519390072112:10

_piotrhow to decide12:16
Pupeno_piotr: I don't really care about that because I'm not interested in taking it with me: on this country, on this city, I wouldn't walk on the streets with a notebook. But I'm interested to be able to move (as change house) with just a bagpack.12:17
_piotrPupeno: yeah .. me too..12:17
Pupeno_piotr: buy a small notebook and a big flat screen, carry the notebook leave the screen.12:17

kayYou know, Ubuntu has this contract with HP....12:21
amu_piotr: there are 3 possibilities, HP or IMB or an apple, HP is perfect with service if something breaks you get your laptop back, in 5 days, ibm good quality also, good service, well and apple is known for best design and hardware 12:22
kayThey are going to support their notebooks with Ubuntu, so it will work everything fine12:22

Pupenotoshiba is also good for linux I believe. I'd be interested in a solution that doesn't imply Microsoft-tax12:23
kayThen none of the big except Apple will work12:23
amukay: is i know the NX series is full supported, mybe other seies works also .... 12:23
Pupeno_piotr: sony is extrenely prorpietary, so, expect it to be a pain in the a*s to get anything to work.12:23
_piotrkay: are ther hp laptops which ship with ubuntu12:23
kayExcept of course, that MS owns big part of Apple12:24
kay_piotr: The HP laptops are going to ship with FreeDOS installed, but with Ubuntu CDs (free)12:24
Pupenokay: well, Apple is Apple-taxed, so, it's the same. Asus sell OS-less notebooks, but I don't trust Asus.12:24

_brandonnPupeno, the strange thing is I have another Kubuntu machine, and firefox has the same (font) settings, but the fonts look fine on that one12:35
kayWhat's with these cheap notebook we read about12:35
Pupeno_brandonn: my answer would remain the same I believe.12:35
kay100, 200 USD ones seem to be made for 3rd world12:35
kayIf they break, you could just take a new one12:36
kay(several times and still be cheaper...)12:36
Pupenokay: here, in the third world, there are only 1500 and up notebooks available on the market (and if it's 1500 here, it's 900 on USA, if it's 3000 here, it's 1500 on USA) 12:36
Pupenokay: and I'm not talking about money conversions, they are all USA dollars.12:36
kaywell, you know, Germany is part of the 3rd world in that regard12:37
PupenoI can't understand why notebooks are so expensive anywhere else than USA (generally).12:38
Pupenoafter all, they are made on China anyway.12:38
kayMaybe something antitrust12:39
kayThink films and stuff, all more expensive here12:39
_piotrok; ill go to bed guys..12:39
kaynight _piotr 12:39
_piotrhave a good night.. 12:39
amuPupeno: in Brasil a packet cigarets cost 50cents, in autralia 12$ ...same label 12:41
amusame with Volkswagen, the VW is in Spain cheaper than in Germany .... 12:43
Pupenoamu: that's not something easy to compare, because if the packer of cigarets is made on Brasil, it makes sense, and if Australia has pro-health laws with special taxes on cigaretes, it makes sense as well.12:43
Pupenoamu: in that case, it may be a market choice, the average money-capacity of spanish people is lower than germany, so, it makes sense to make the cars cheaper if they want to sell at all (or in the other way, they are able to make them expensive on Germany and still sell).12:44
kayamu: The VW is made in Spain too12:44
Pupenothere's another important factor.12:44
amuok cigaretes are are bad example, but why is the VW in spain cheaper ... 12:44
amukay: no also in italy it's cheaper :)12:44
kayPeople in Germany are willing to pay more for cars than everybody else12:45
Pupenoamu: my initial statment prevails.12:45
amuthat's it12:45
Pupenoamu: but why do notebooks costs the double in Argentina than in the USA, while they are made somewhere else of those countries and people in USA earn more than 1000u$s monthly while people in Argentina earn less than 300u$s monthly still puzzels me.12:46
=== FireEgl [Ariel@2001:5c0:84dc:2:0:0:0:0] has joined #Kubuntu
kaymaybe there is more competition there12:47
amuPupeno: i guess there are socalled distributors in argentina, it's only them allowed to import the waerez 12:47
Pupenokay: that can be a possible solution.12:47
kayMy suspect is that non-US is where US companies make their money12:47
kayWhereas in US they will even accept losses, just to remain in the game12:47
kayThe Apple is a good example too12:48
Pupenokay: the typical USA people living off the rest of the world.12:48
kayApple has to fear no distributor, right?12:48
amu.. and those distributors earn the money 12:48
kayStill, Apples simply have cost twice as much here12:49
amukay: partner is it called12:49
kayThe iMac e.g. flopped here due to that point12:49
Pupenoanyway, I have a weird problem here.12:50
amuPupeno: wait for someone who visit another country he'll bring you the laptop 12:51
kayTravel to US, buy there, have a good time, return, save money :p12:51
PupenoMy firewall/gateway(masquerade) works good with firestart, the masquerade machine can work, but when I try to do it with guarddo/guidedog it just doesn't work. KMail on the masqed computer can't download mail (while I can from that computer telnet to the mail server at its port and I get a reply), any ideas ?12:51
Pupenokay: I don't want to put a foot on USA soil for a long long long time.12:52
Pupenokay: and spending 1000u$s on travel tickets to buy a notebook for 900u$s instead of 1500u$s doesn't really save money.12:52
Pupenoamu: that's probably what I do, but customs in this country 'haunt you down' when you come from USA.12:53
kayThought you were in Brazil... 12:53
Pupenos/t I do/t I'll do/12:53
Pupenokay: I'm on Argentina.12:53
kayAh ok12:53
kayIn some countries in Asia the governments are doing something about it, I read12:54
Pupenodoes anybody know what's up with this guarddog/guidedog ? does it work ?12:54
kayBut Argentina, does it still suffer?12:54
Pupenokay: what do you mean ?12:54
amuPupeno: you're bit too late, haggai was last year there, there was debconf  and some people from .ar visted debconf also .... 12:55
kayPupeno: I recall there was a harsh enconomic breakdown12:55
Pupenokay: yes, I left this country shortly after it started.12:56
Pupenokay: the situation is still bad, the USA-based organizations and USA itself keeps pressing our authorities to take bad choices, but still, the echonomy is getting better.12:56
Pupenos/take/make/12:57
kayIsn't there free trade between south america and US now?12:57
kayI forgot, there are 2 organisations, one with Argentina, one with Brazil12:58
kayThey had free trade treaty, not?12:58
Pupenokay: no, only Chile is part of NAFTA (or whatever it was called)... and Mexico.12:58
kayyeah... and there is another one12:58
Pupenokay: here we have Mercosur, between Brasil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina... which is a big failure.12:58
kayexactly that was the name12:59
kayWhy is it, Pupeno ?12:59
Pupenokay: The two big countries in this game where Brasil and Argentina. Brasil never played fair and Argentina was taken down by the IMF, so, it was very useless.12:59
amuok, again .us fault ;) in iraq they stole oil for food, in south america bad chooses :)  12:59
Pupenokay: Brasilians are very nationalist, so, even when you could sell to them without paying taxes, they wouldn't buy from you if you don't buy from them first, so, it was a different kind of tax.01:00
kaySounds like French :p01:00
Pupenokay: Argentinians are not nationalist (untill nationalism can be expressed with violence braking things, like the glasses of McDonalds and similar stupid behaviours), so, we end importing a lot from Brasil and not exporting anything and the economy went down.01:01
Pupenos/glasses/windows/01:01
PupenoNow, I know another trade organization is being born, from Ecuador and it is supoused to integrate all South America... but honestly, I haven't seen anything else than a couple of words about it.01:02
kayThat thing about nations has something bad about it anyway01:03
Pupenokay: I'm strongly oposed agains the concept of countries.01:03
kaySo, why should i matter from which humans you buy :p01:03
kayIf you don't buy best / cheapest, you are plain silly01:04
Pupenokay: because I don't buy from humans who are actively hurting other humans.01:04
Pupenokay: or, in other words, I buy from the humans who I believe are hurting the less.01:04
kayWow, how are you going to get a notebook01:04
kayMade in China01:04
kaySold via US01:04
kayDictators that kill their citizens (and exploit them)01:05
Pupenokay: I do not know, I'll try to find the best available, as I do in all the other cases.01:05
kayYou see :p01:05
Pupenokay: it is not easy for me to make such desitions, to take such actions, it always hurt me.01:06

Wekkelfor me that is ok enough, as long as and actual picture of the USB stick is present ;)04:07
brandonnwell, hotplug just does the modules I think04:08
finnbut with gnome the plugging in activates the mounting and bringing up an icon on the desktop. i was wondering if kubuntu does the same04:08

spartacusHi. I'm a part time Ubuntu user, but my recent focus is on supporting international users (particularly Asian folks). Translation doesn't seem to be a big problem, but the best way of getting multilingual input done seems to be with Scrim under KDE. Anyway, I'm wondering if there's a list of i18n or translation ToDos for Kubuntu and typical user apps? 05:55

fallstormWhat do you mean by console size?06:30
neofaxI mean it is set at 800x600 and I want 1024x76806:33

buzthey work beautifully on my system12:26
buzonly saving is dog slow12:27
amubuz: diff & orig.tar.gz isnt there :)12:28
buzi suppose it's alienized deb12:28
buzbuilding OO2 is a pain12:29
buzbut it does work12:29
amubuilded against xorg or xfree ? 12:29
buzdoes that matter?12:29
amu:) 12:29
buzi mean it works under hoary so i'm content with it12:29
buzand oo2 sure beats the crap out of oo112:29
buzexcept for well the buggy 79 release in the repos12:32
amubuz: i'll see if you still installs *.debs from somewhere, if the postinstalls of the package sends your gpg-keys, ssh-key and your mails over the net :) 12:32
buzmy pgp keys arent even on my box12:33
buzand i dont use rsa auth for ssh12:33
buzas for my mails, well shit happens12:33
amubuz: would you like see who it's easy i break into your sys, if you install a customized deb ?12:33
buzi know12:34
buzit's just as easy with a signed one though12:34
buzand who knows if the oo2 code doesnt containt backdoors from being with12:35
buzyou can always get MORE paranoid you know :)12:35
amubuz: sure, there's no limit, but i can reduce the possibility if i just install ubuntu.deb's 12:36
buztrue12:37
buzbut i'm not that paranoid12:37
buzbesides i'll probably rebuild this box quite soon anyhow12:37
buzas for right now, i need to get my homework done12:37

amuthe other thing is, it helps your at the moment, you got a probably better version of oo2, who cares about security fixes? probably thoundends of other users has the same problem with openoffice like you, it may be better if you report a bug to bugzilla and the maintainer fix it for all people   12:39
buzi think someone did that12:40
buziirc the response was there will be an update when the final come12:40
buzcomes12:40
amuand meanwhile you install it from there, which probably makes your sys not anymore upgradable, or other apps crashes12:43

PupenoArchimedes: nah, there's no such a thing as gnome compilers.07:50
PupenoArchimedes: an application is either gnome or kde (or something else) and nobody can easily change that.07:51
Archimedeswell I mean, if I were running a purely KDE-centric distro, I doubt these apps would still look like gnome.. would they?07:51
PupenoArchimedes: what can be done is put themes, styles, etc that make gnome applications look like kde (or viceversa). But I was asking, what applications did you install that look like gnome ?07:51
PupenoArchimedes: yes, they would.07:51
Archimedeswow07:52
Archimedesso when someone writes a GUI for linux, they have to write it for a specific WM?07:52

=== smt_ [~sashmit@user-1120tum.dsl.mindspring.com] has joined #kubuntu

=== gnumdk [~gnumdk@ANantes-252-1-52-73.w82-126.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #kubuntu
Archimedesgimp definitely looks like gnome07:52
PupenoArchimedes: you write an application using one library to do the GUI part.07:53
buzthat's because gtk stems from gimp07:53
PupenoArchimedes: the library can be gtk, qt, kde, etc.07:53
Archimedesso are there KDE versions of some of these apps then?07:53
PupenoArchimedes: those libraries have different look and feel. Gnome uses gtk, so Gnome has gtk look and feel (same as gtk) and kde uses qt/kde, which gaves it qt/kde look and feel, same as konqueror or kontact.07:53
PupenoArchimedes: no. There's no easy way to make that so nobody is atively making, there were some tries in the past, but they failed (like kimp).07:54
vickswhy, does so many of the large (widespread)  apps use gtk? (gimp (thats natural maybe...), firefox, synaptic)07:54
Pupenovicks: firefox doesn't use gtk.07:54
Archimedesso I guess the best we can do is theme up GTK to look more like qt/kde?07:54
Pupenovicks: and the question should be asked to each developer "Why did you chose gtk instead of qt ?" and you'll get very different answers for each one.07:55
PupenoArchimedes: yes, search in (ks)ynaptic for gtk2 engine qt. That's what makes GTK applications like more qt/kde.07:55
PupenoArchimedes: but still, they'll be different.07:55
Archimedescool, thanks07:55
Archimedesis there a way to theme gnome from KDE?07:55
vicksPupeno: ah, sorry (xul isn't it). but isn't it developed towards gnome? and yes, i understand that different devel. has different arguments. i was just wondering if there was some sort of consensus, like "qt sux0rs for heavy apps"07:56
Pupenovicks: some people choose gtk+ because it is more free (LGPL instead of GPL, like Qt). some people choose gtk+ because they only know C, and not C++, which is what Qt uses. Some people is against C++, so they chose gtk+ because is c. Some people just like gtk+ better, like the reverse happens. And so on.07:57
vicksPupeno: ok, thanks for that =)07:57
Pupenovicks: there's no consensus here... and KDE is a heavy application (konqueror, kontact, etc) all done in Qt. And if you look at the Trolltech web site, look for companies using Qt and they are building big heavy applications.07:57
PupenoArchimedes: I don't understand your question, what do you want to do ?07:58
Archimedescan I access a gnome equivalent to KDE's "Control Center" from KDE?07:59
Archimedesso I can change the appearance of gtk windows?07:59
Pupenovicks: well, since most qt/kde developers prefeer konqueror, it is natural that most firefox developers are not qt/kde developers, so, it's likely that they are using Gnome instead of KDE, which makes firefox development biased towards gnome (without counting that Gnome's browser uses Gecko, Firefox's engine, so there might be some core Gnome developers working on Firefox).07:59
Pupenovicks: there surely is some core windows guys on firefox, and if you think about, it looks a lot like windoze.07:59
PupenoArchimedes: I do not know, I do not even know if gnome has a control center. If there is, you can run it no matter what desktop/wm you are running. BUT 08:00
vicksPupeno: yeah. the k-gecko projekt is very interesting. i hope they will succeed. gecko in konq would rock, firefox is so damn slow08:01
PupenoI was told that gtk2-engines-gtk-qt provides a KDE Control Center panel for configuring how gtk/gnome applications look like.08:01
vicksif firefox would be ported to kde, would that increse firefox-speed (tab-switching etc.)?08:01
Archimedesoo thatd be nice08:02

=== jiyuu0 [~jiyuu0@219.95.214.153] has joined #kubuntu

=== ubuntu [~ubuntu@eumel.boerde.de] has joined #kubuntu
vicksPupeno: yes. hopefully that will make khtml more of a standard, so web-people will take it into consideration whan developing site. firefox is starting to do this for the mozilla-compitability 08:05
Pupenovicks: the solution to standars is... well, standards: It doesn't matter who created the site with what applications or what software you are using to view it, as long as a common standard is respected: http://www.w3.org08:06
Pupenovicks: But, most web sites (99%) are done by people who doesn't even know that standard exists or by people who prefeer it to look nice on IE than respect the standards (add to this that IE is among the most standards-breaking browsers).08:07
theD3viLWhy my MIC dont work with arstdsp?08:07
vicksPupeno: yeah. the problem often seems to be that web-developers often tend to comply to browsers more than w3c (which they really should comply to)08:07
Pupenovicks: what firefox will thankfully do, is make pages more standards just because if you want to make a page look good in firefox, you have to be closer to the standards... and that's good even for kthml.08:08
vickswhich is hard to understand. it seems so much easier to develop according to the w3c, then develop like three different sites08:08
vicksPupeno: yeah08:08
Pupenovicks: I've seen cases of companies that would shoot to kill if you say 'standard', but they are welcome firefox-ralted sugestions (which end up being, standards).08:09
Pupenovicks: from that perspective, even when I prefeer konqueror/kthml, I turn myself into an strong firefox-advocate giving everyone CDs with firefox (and thunderbird).08:09

kisain>.<11:04
Diablo-D3well, like I said11:05
Diablo-D3people keep doing this shit11:05
kisainhey you know anything about software raid d311:05
=== Diablo-D3 was about to mention software raid
kisaini forgot to create a swap partition lol11:05
kisaini had to create a file11:06
_sophieHi all11:06
uniqfiles works :)11:06
Diablo-D3kisain: er, well11:06
Diablo-D3kisain: normally you have three drives11:06
kisaini have 211:06
Diablo-D3kisain: a really tiny 20 gig or so for root11:06
kisainoh11:06
Diablo-D3well, root and swap11:06
Diablo-D3and boot11:06
kisainyou know something funnie i made the raid on the whole disks11:07
Diablo-D3and then some raid software setup to shove /home and whatever else giant on it11:07
kisaintheres 10gb diffrence between the 2 so theres 10gb not bein used11:07
Diablo-D3then you probably can grab that for swap and root11:07
kisainyea but how? i was told that with raid all the disks have to be the same size11:08
Diablo-D3they dont11:08
Diablo-D3the raid _partitions_ have to be the same size.11:08
Diablo-D3well, assuming you're talking software raid11:08
Diablo-D3hardware raid its up to the controller11:08
kisaini have a 40 gig and a 30 gig raided for a total of 30 gigs it dosen't see the other 1011:08
kisaini am11:08
kisainit took me 8hrs to figure it out11:08
Diablo-D3you are what?11:09
kisainand i still don't have it completely right (i.e i pull one drive out to test and the other fails)11:09
kisaini have a 30 gig hard drive and a 40 gig hard drive11:09
Diablo-D3I mean, are you using sw or hw raid?11:09
kisainto make them work i had to remove 10 gigs from the 40 to make it 3011:09
kisainsoftware raid 111:10
kisaintook me all morning to do it lol11:10
kisainabout 10 tries and numerous resarch lol11:10
Diablo-D3heh11:10
Diablo-D3then you can do itfine11:10
Diablo-D3just... go... jiggle it or something11:10
Diablo-D3ask in #kernelnewbies on oftc11:10
kisainroflmao11:10
kisainhey i have a question for ya11:11
kisainwhen i remove one hda the other should think it failed yes?11:11
kisainand the computer should still boot right?11:12
Diablo-D3nope11:12
kisainnope?11:12
Diablo-D3if your boot drive dies, you're fucked.11:12
kisainso did i do something wrong?11:12
Diablo-D3Yes11:12
=== _sophie [~sophie@Quebec-HSE-ppp215527.qc.sympatico.ca] has joined #kubuntu
Diablo-D3this is why you need a third drive11:12
kisainoh shit what?11:12
kisain>.<11:12
Diablo-D3or a third _something_11:12
_sophiehello all I,ve just installed kunbuntu migrated from SUSE11:13
_sophieI've got a question11:13
kisainreally? are you fuckin shitting me i need 3 harddrives?11:13
Diablo-D3unless you use hardware raid, you cant boot a raid array11:13
kisaini found a howto that says you can just don't know enough to do ut11:13
_sophieHow the heck do you install firefox11:13
kisainwhats up?11:13
Diablo-D3kisain: raid1 you _might_ be able to get away with it11:13
Diablo-D3kisain: but Im seriously doubting it11:13
kisainit's already installed ^_^11:14
kisainok11:14
Diablo-D3kisain: because you'll have to remount root as the raid1 array11:14
Diablo-D3kisain: which is a fucking pain in the ass11:14
kisaindamnit11:14
fallstormsophie... well, there are a couple of ways11:14
Diablo-D3kisain: yeah, thats why I try to avoid setups like that11:14
fallstormyou can install the ubuntu stuff, which means you'll get a lot of gnome libs which you may or may not mind11:15
Diablo-D3kisain: either use a hardware array setup that I can boot (not all can, no consumer hardware can)11:15
fallstormyou can download it from mozilla.org and install it that way11:15
_sophiefallstorm: Using apt-get11:15
fallstormyeah11:15
Diablo-D3kisain: or I have something else I can boot, and have a sw raid setup11:15
fallstormapt-get install mozilla-firefox should work, if you decide to go that route11:15
fallstormor you could use an autopackage, which will give you the newest version without the gnome libs11:15
kisainnice i have sw raid so i think i may have messed up damnit11:15
_sophiefallstorm: using apt-get install firefox not found11:16
_sophieautopackage?11:16
kisaini need it so i can boot from either hd if one fails lol11:16
fallstormapt-get install mozilla-firefox 11:16
Diablo-D3kisain: which you cant.11:16
fallstormif you wanna know about autopackages, read up on autopackage.org first11:16
kisainNoooooooo!11:16
fallstormbut it's the way I did it11:16
Diablo-D3kisain: theres one way out of that11:16
kisainredo my box?11:17
Diablo-D3kisain: first, how do you have raid 1 setup now?11:17
kisainum how can i get that info for you? whats the command11:17
Diablo-D3kisain: ... _how_ did you setup raid 1?11:17

Diablo-D3kisain: then what you do is setup partitions exactly the same11:18
kisainand there both synced11:18
Diablo-D3kisain: root, swap, whatever else11:18
Diablo-D3kisain: and ignore the useless 10 gigs11:18
