How do I install the kernel headers? [12:06] <_piotr> I find it unbelievable that the 17' owerbook is over 100 euro more expansive here in austrian than in germany [12:06] the 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 :) [12:07] the 17" is too big for me [12:07] <_piotr> :) [12:07] <_piotr> normal desktop at home is better but im student and dont know how often ill move around within the next years [12:07] <_piotr> change apartments etc [12:08] than take a 14" ibook, the 12" for daily use is too small [12:08] <_piotr> is the ibook fast enough..

But I'm interested to be able to move (as change house) with just a bagpack. [12:17] <_piotr> Pupeno: yeah .. me too.. [12:17] _piotr: buy a small notebook and a big flat screen, carry the notebook leave the screen. [12:17] <_piotr> :D [12:17] _piotr: where are you ?

[12:21] _piotr: hm, fluent? [12:21] You know, Ubuntu has this contract with HP.... [12:22] _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] They are going to support their notebooks with Ubuntu, so it will work everything fine [12:22] <_piotr> apple has goot service too [12:22] <_piotr> cooll about hp [12:22] kay: only 1 serie [12:22] <_piotr> what aobut sony or fujitsu siemens? [12:22] amu: It sure read like a lot numbers [12:22] go away with them [12:23] <_piotr> amu: which one? [12:23] <_piotr> hp..

I'd be interested in a solution that doesn't imply Microsoft-tax [12:23] Then none of the big except Apple will work [12:23] kay: is i know the NX series is full supported, mybe other seies works also .... [12:23] _piotr: sony is extrenely prorpietary, so, expect it to be a pain in the a*s to get anything to work. [12:23] <_piotr> kay: are ther hp laptops which ship with ubuntu [12:24] Except of course, that MS owns big part of Apple [12:24] _piotr: The HP laptops are going to ship with FreeDOS installed, but with Ubuntu CDs (free) [12:24] kay: well, Apple is Apple-taxed, so, it's the same. Asus sell OS-less notebooks, but I don't trust Asus. [12:24] <_piotr> kay: great no.. ms license [12:24] I went for a smaller company just because of that, and I must say, I was not disappointed [12:24] kay: http://www.pro-linux.de/news/2005/8051.html === ..[topic/#kubuntu:Riddell] : deb http://kubuntu.org/ hoary-updates main | Unofficial Kubuntu FAQ http://kudos.berlios.de/ | breezy broken for g++ and dbus fun | http://www.kubuntu.org/hoary-release.php [12:25] Riddell: cool [12:25] <_piotr> kay:so where would I get a Hp without windows xp [12:25] amu: Yes, but still... who else but HP does this? [12:25] amu: english version somewhere ? [12:26] _piotr: Well, it sure won't be cheaper, MS has that kind of contracts with them [12:26] Pupeno: pipe it though babelfish [12:26] amu, uniq: ready for amd64 .debs if you wish to supply them [12:27] <_piotr> kay: how come. [12:27] <_piotr> thought that hp was a nice company :D [12:27] kay: as i read there are a lot of small companies, they deliver their hardware with preinstalled k(u)buntu [12:28] Wise of them... amu [12:28] uniq: you can do that? i've enough other work :) [12:28] If Breezy meets its release goal, the notebooks of the top 5 vendors should work fine, right?

[12:33] _brandonn: because konqueror is part of KDE and respects the general configuration of KDE, which is sane. Firefox has its own configuration that is not quite nice, just go and change it ;) [12:33] <_ron> hmmm thanks [12:33] _piotr: I think I'll consider HP as well. [12:33] Thank you. [12:34] <_piotr> Pupeno: still need the money to buy it :D === m-fox [~m-fox@port-212-202-9-80.dynamic.qsc.de] has joined #kubuntu === Pupeno too. [12:35] <_brandonn> Pupeno, the strange thing is I have another Kubuntu machine, and firefox has the same (font) settings, but the fonts look fine on that one [12:35] What's with these cheap notebook we read about [12:35] _brandonn: my answer would remain the same I believe. [12:35] 100, 200 USD ones seem to be made for 3rd world [12:36] If they break, you could just take a new one [12:36] (several times and still be cheaper...) [12:36] kay: 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] kay: and I'm not talking about money conversions, they are all USA dollars. [12:37] well, you know, Germany is part of the 3rd world in that regard [12:38] I can't understand why notebooks are so expensive anywhere else than USA (generally). [12:38] after all, they are made on China anyway. [12:39] Maybe something antitrust [12:39] Think films and stuff, all more expensive here [12:39] <_piotr> ok; ill go to bed guys.. [12:39] night _piotr [12:39] <_piotr> have a good night.. [12:41] Pupeno: in Brasil a packet cigarets cost 50cents, in autralia 12$ ...same label [12:43] same with Volkswagen, the VW is in Spain cheaper than in Germany .... [12:43] amu: 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. [12:44] amu: 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] amu: The VW is made in Spain too [12:44] there's another important factor. [12:44] ok cigaretes are are bad example, but why is the VW in spain cheaper ... [12:44] kay: no also in italy it's cheaper :) [12:45] People in Germany are willing to pay more for cars than everybody else [12:45] amu: my initial statment prevails. [12:45] that's it [12:46] amu: 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. === FireEgl [Ariel@2001:5c0:84dc:2:0:0:0:0] has joined #Kubuntu [12:47] maybe there is more competition there [12:47] Pupeno: i guess there are socalled distributors in argentina, it's only them allowed to import the waerez [12:47] kay: that can be a possible solution. [12:47] My suspect is that non-US is where US companies make their money [12:47] Whereas in US they will even accept losses, just to remain in the game [12:48] The Apple is a good example too [12:48] kay: the typical USA people living off the rest of the world. [12:48] Apple has to fear no distributor, right? [12:48] .. and those distributors earn the money [12:49] Still, Apples simply have cost twice as much here [12:49] kay: partner is it called [12:49] The iMac e.g. flopped here due to that point [12:50] anyway, I have a weird problem here. [12:51] Pupeno: wait for someone who visit another country he'll bring you the laptop [12:51] Travel to US, buy there, have a good time, return, save money :p [12:51] My 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 ? [12:52] kay: I don't want to put a foot on USA soil for a long long long time. [12:52] kay: and spending 1000u$s on travel tickets to buy a notebook for 900u$s instead of 1500u$s doesn't really save money. [12:53] amu: that's probably what I do, but customs in this country 'haunt you down' when you come from USA. [12:53] Thought you were in Brazil... [12:53] s/t I do/t I'll do/ [12:53] kay: I'm on Argentina. [12:53] Ah ok [12:54] In some countries in Asia the governments are doing something about it, I read [12:54] does anybody know what's up with this guarddog/guidedog ? does it work ? [12:54] But Argentina, does it still suffer? [12:54] kay: what do you mean ? [12:55] Pupeno: you're bit too late, haggai was last year there, there was debconf and some people from .ar visted debconf also .... [12:55] Pupeno: I recall there was a harsh enconomic breakdown [12:56] kay: yes, I left this country shortly after it started. [12:56] kay: 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. [12:57] s/take/make/ [12:57] Isn't there free trade between south america and US now? [12:58] I forgot, there are 2 organisations, one with Argentina, one with Brazil [12:58] They had free trade treaty, not? [12:58] kay: no, only Chile is part of NAFTA (or whatever it was called)... and Mexico. [12:58] yeah... and there is another one [12:58] kay: here we have Mercosur, between Brasil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina... which is a big failure. [12:59] exactly that was the name [12:59] Why is it, Pupeno ? [12:59] kay: 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] ok, again .us fault ;) in iraq they stole oil for food, in south america bad chooses :) [01:00] kay: 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] Sounds like French :p [01:01] kay: 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] s/glasses/windows/ [01:02] Now, 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. [01:03] That thing about nations has something bad about it anyway [01:03] kay: I'm strongly oposed agains the concept of countries. [01:03] So, why should i matter from which humans you buy :p [01:04] If you don't buy best / cheapest, you are plain silly [01:04] kay: because I don't buy from humans who are actively hurting other humans. [01:04] kay: or, in other words, I buy from the humans who I believe are hurting the less. [01:04] Wow, how are you going to get a notebook [01:04] Made in China [01:04] Sold via US [01:05] Dictators that kill their citizens (and exploit them) [01:05] kay: I do not know, I'll try to find the best available, as I do in all the other cases. [01:05] You see :p [01:06] kay: it is not easy for me to make such desitions, to take such actions, it always hurt me. [01:07] say hello to meredyth. she's my bitch. [01:07] hm... transgress ... [01:07] ha...

[03:46] I work with standard models in Word alot during my work and none of the 'alternatives' deal correctly with such documents [03:46] yeah, I bought this nice thin scanner (Canon LiDE 20) , plugged in the USB cable (USB powered scanner), started kooka and began to scan.

[03:55] why not? [03:55] if you have the password, you may have a go at it [03:56] sorry [03:56] ehehehee [03:56] the question is 'how" [03:56] open up the menu editor, and look at the ones that are already set up that way, that is how I figured it out [03:57] seems like it was "login as another user" but don't specify the user [03:58] or, if you have a root password, just specify root as the other user [03:59] eheheh I don't know why, none of the apps are asking for the root passwd... [03:59] hmm, I am able to acces all necessary 'root' actions by entering my normal user password [03:59] Wekkel: yeah, that is using sudo [04:00] I have sudo installed.... [04:00] sudo password is the same as the password for the normal user [04:00] Brazmetal: do you have a root password set? === Wekkel is listening to Edelweiss - Starship [04:00] sure [04:01] Brazmetal: I ask because most K/Ubuntu systems don't by default, they use sudo === finn [~jani@ppp73-231.lns1.mel3.internode.on.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:05] is there any difference between an install of kubuntu and an install of ubuntu with kde added? I was thinking in terms of automounting of usb thumb drives etc [04:05] I don't know [04:05] my gnome desktop adds things i plug in automatically and mounts them, but when i log into kde it doesn't work [04:06] Kubuntu has an applet called 'System' [04:06] i installed ubuntu and then added kde afterwards === haggai [~halls@i-83-67-59-194.freedom2surf.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:06] with that applet, you can acces 'storage media' which gives an overview of all media attached to your system (floppy, hda etc including USB stick) [04:06] cool, i'll give that a go [04:07] all it does is open up konqueror with media:// [04:07] yeah, it seemed to me the hotplug wasn't actually working (i had to manually mount stuff to access it) [04:07] well, the modules were being loaded, but the automount wasn't [04:07] for me that is ok enough, as long as and actual picture of the USB stick is present ;) [04:08] well, hotplug just does the modules I think [04:08] but with gnome the plugging in activates the mounting and bringing up an icon on the desktop. i was wondering if kubuntu does the same [04:08] you could probably configure the hotplug scripts to do that, but that is usually more of a userland issue === mepisman [~mepisman@CPE-144-131-34-227.vic.bigpond.net.au] has joined #kubuntu [04:09] yeah. ah well, i'll have more of a play around with it :) [04:09] At least 100x better than Debian for which you should insert hocus pocus starup lines in fstab etc.... [04:09] yeah, but that is gnome doing that, not hotplug, kde just handles it a little differently [04:09] finn that is not my experience [04:09] yeah i wish i could get kde to mount like gnome does... suppose i could apt gvm [04:10] ok. i guess i've just gotten lazy since i started running ubuntu. [04:10] gvm is sort of automount? [04:10] because gvm is the only way i can figure out to get my ntfs external hdd to mount... otherwise it tosses errors [04:10] gvm is what automounts the shit in gnome [04:10] iirc [04:11] yeah [04:11] my kubuntu machine is linux only, so NTFS is not an issue [04:11] well i've had drive for a while [04:11] and i wanna back up some of the stuff off of it before i make it ext3 [04:12] go to media:// in konqueror, and it should show everything available to mount [04:12] I tried using kdesu, but It doesn't work [04:12] the dialog asking the passwd does not appear, and the app does not run :( [04:13] Brazmetal: you're not logged in as root are you? === Wekkel [~wekkel_e@ip503c77dd.speed.planet.nl] has left #kubuntu [] [04:18] brandonn, no, i dont [04:18] i'm logged as a normal user.

[04:20] but some [04:20] some settings in kcontrol [04:20] asks passwd [04:20] yeah, that won't help much [04:22] wallet? [04:22] i don't [04:22] hmm [04:23] well, if you go to the menu editor, and pull up kuser, does it have "run as different user" checked?

[07:51] Archimedes: an application is either gnome or kde (or something else) and nobody can easily change that. [07:51] well I mean, if I were running a purely KDE-centric distro, I doubt these apps would still look like gnome.. would they? [07:51] Archimedes: 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] Archimedes: yes, they would. [07:52] wow [07:52] so when someone writes a GUI for linux, they have to write it for a specific WM? [07:52] Gimp is a gtk/gnome application everywhere, in kde, gnome, or even windows. === smt_ [~sashmit@user-1120tum.dsl.mindspring.com] has joined #kubuntu [07:52] Archimedes: no. you don't write an application for a WM. [07:52] gimp is a good example === gnumdk [~gnumdk@ANantes-252-1-52-73.w82-126.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #kubuntu [07:52] gimp definitely looks like gnome [07:53] Archimedes: you write an application using one library to do the GUI part. [07:53] that's because gtk stems from gimp [07:53] Archimedes: the library can be gtk, qt, kde, etc. [07:53] so are there KDE versions of some of these apps then? [07:53] Archimedes: 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. [07:54] Archimedes: 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] why, does so many of the large (widespread) apps use gtk? (gimp (thats natural maybe...), firefox, synaptic) [07:54] vicks: firefox doesn't use gtk. [07:54] so I guess the best we can do is theme up GTK to look more like qt/kde? [07:55] vicks: 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] Archimedes: yes, search in (ks)ynaptic for gtk2 engine qt. That's what makes GTK applications like more qt/kde. [07:55] Archimedes: but still, they'll be different. [07:55] cool, thanks [07:55] is there a way to theme gnome from KDE? [07:56] Pupeno: 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" [07:57] vicks: 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] Pupeno: ok, thanks for that =) [07:57] vicks: 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. [07:58] Archimedes: I don't understand your question, what do you want to do ? [07:59] can I access a gnome equivalent to KDE's "Control Center" from KDE? [07:59] so I can change the appearance of gtk windows? [07:59] vicks: 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] vicks: there surely is some core windows guys on firefox, and if you think about, it looks a lot like windoze. [08:00] Archimedes: 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 [08:01] Pupeno: yeah. the k-gecko projekt is very interesting. i hope they will succeed. gecko in konq would rock, firefox is so damn slow [08:01] I was told that gtk2-engines-gtk-qt provides a KDE Control Center panel for configuring how gtk/gnome applications look like. [08:01] if firefox would be ported to kde, would that increse firefox-speed (tab-switching etc.)? [08:02] oo thatd be nice [08:02] vicks: what makes you think that gecko on konqueror would be faster than gecko on firefox ? === jiyuu0 [~jiyuu0@219.95.214.153] has joined #kubuntu [08:02] vicks: probably, the speed problem is gecko, and not the wrapper arround it. [08:02] vicks: Apple choosed konqueror's engine, khtml, because it was cleaner and faster than gecko. === jnoon [~jnoon@RHB-48-115.sonoma.edu] has joined #kubuntu [08:04] how can i get knoda? do i have to do a source install or are there packages somewhere?

[08:07] Why my MIC dont work with arstdsp? [08:07] Pupeno: 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) [08:08] vicks: 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] which is hard to understand. it seems so much easier to develop according to the w3c, then develop like three different sites [08:08] Pupeno: yeah [08:09] vicks: 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] vicks: from that perspective, even when I prefeer konqueror/kthml, I turn myself into an strong firefox-advocate giving everyone CDs with firefox (and thunderbird). === blueyed [~daniel@i528C3EC3.versanet.de] has joined #kubuntu [08:13] how do i make the navigationpanel show up when i start konqueror in "browser-mode"?
