[03:22] choice [03:23] GNOME feels claustrophobic, everything has been pre-selected as 'the best' for you. I'm capable of making my own decisions, thanks. [03:24] Well, there's a few simple things that are missing, like easy adding to menus. [03:25] GNOME 2.10 is slower and more memory-consuming on my laptop. [03:25] yeah; i noticed that when i used "ubuntu" instead of "kubuntu [live, i'll be installing it soon] [03:25] on GNOME there just doesn't seem to be a menu editor [03:25] and the menus take up so much more space; so much that living with one panel is dreadful [03:26] I used GNOME since Warty beta, and just switched to Kubuntu last week. I'm lovin' it. [03:26] though one thing i find very annoying with KDE over gnome [03:26] WHY DOES EVERY APP HAVE TO START WITH K??????? [03:26] It doesn't :) [03:26] or 95% of them, anyways [03:26] Just it's easier to coin names around K than G... [03:26] I couldn't get GNOME to build for the life of me from CVS. I'm running KDE SVN right now. ;) [03:26] since you have 'C' to play with.. Kontact, Kompose, etc. [03:27] but things like "KPilot"...??? [03:27] Gaim, Galeon, Synaptic, oh wait... [03:27] Yeh, that's just unoriginality :) [03:27] I suppose the names can be changed [03:27] to protect the innocent, of course. [03:28] and isn't KDE much more mature/developed? After all, 70% of the people with Desktop Environments use it... [03:28] oh yeah...the other thing that makes KDE superior...Konqueror... [03:28] no idea, can't comment on that. [03:28] Certainly I'm the only KDE fan in my circle of geeks :) [03:28] Oh, man, I hated Konqueror until KDE 3.4. Now it's awesome. [03:29] I hated KDE until 3.4 period ^_^ [03:29] what's made 3.4 the quantum leap? [03:29] I don't know [03:29] I haven't noticed much difference... [03:29] but when I used 3.2 on mandrake, the graphics compared to Kubuntu's were awful [03:29] maybe that's why [03:29] that and Mandrake came with an awful preloaded theme [03:30] Well it's hardly KDE's fault if MDK had no graphical taste :) [03:30] Ugh, the default on Mandrake was awful. So was the default window decoration. I'm so glad they switched to Plastik. [03:31] I think I like Keramik better though [03:31] I'll miss some applications when I switch to KDE though [03:32] Does anyone know a program much like Imendio's Planner? [03:32] (for KDE) [03:32] Um, what? [03:33] Heh, none :) [03:33] none?!? [03:33] GNOME thing.. used to be called 'Mr. Project' [03:33] shameless MS Project clone [03:33] it was awesome though [03:33] KDE needs something like that [03:33] was the original GanttProject specific to gnome? [03:34] btw, you can still run it. Just apt-get gtk2-engines-qtk-qt and go to KDE control center to make your GNOME apps not have crappy fonts. [03:34] I'm a sysadmin not an IT manager :) [03:34] I don't 'do' project management. [03:34] i use it for odd miscellaneous things; and i can't even get a job yet [03:35] http://ganttproject.sourceforge.net/index.php [03:35] it appears that this isn't specific to gnome :) [03:37] interesting... [03:39] I'll also miss Abiword; the best word processor on the planet [03:40] heh, yes openoffice is equally as dreadful on KDE or GNOME :) [03:40] Bloat that makes MS blush.. [03:40] why does KDE accept that pile of crap [ooo] ? [03:41] .. it's big + slow, but it's very complete :) [03:42] i wish KDE would actually make efforts to port abi over to KDE :( [03:42] Well, they have KOffice which is making good ground [03:42] yes === sbcl3 hopes Bluefish wasn't gnome-dependant...he goes to look [03:43] looks like its not :) [03:43] there's nothing to stop you from keeping the gtk / gnome libs on disk [03:43] and then if it is there's always KDevelop :) [03:43] but they won't accept the KDE theme or have that integration [03:43] If I was that concerned over looks I'd buy a Mac.

[08:53] maybe they're only labeled beta because beta has become a buzzword [08:55] even though it's saying the application is not necessarily of high quality, some people like new and cool things. and beta screams "new"... also, if a product is titled "beta", the user expects it to have bugs, and more easily ignores them when he encounters one, thinking: "Oh well, It's beta" [08:56] Even the GMail logo still says beta even though it works marvellously well. :) [08:58] ... gmail, not the logo :P [08:58] yeah [08:59] I feel as though that works great for joe consumer [08:59] but is counterproductive in the workplace [08:59] where people need stability [08:59] I guess that's always a tradeoff, though. [08:59] By this logic, all Microsoft's products should be either alpha (home edition) or beta (pro edition). [09:00] haha [09:00] windows server 2003 is a pretty nice OS, IMO [09:00] Haven't used it.

"but every time I try to enable and co" ... [09:25] <_dsmith> Ah, I'm sorry. [09:25] <_dsmith> More or less, I enable eth1 [09:25] <_dsmith> (my wifi card) [09:25] <_dsmith> and it instantly disables it again [09:26] <_dsmith> All of this from the Kcontrol center, although I've tried using iwconfig and editing various config files. [09:27] hm.. wasn't there a kWIFI manager or smth like that... [09:28] <_dsmith> Well, kwifimanager does find eth1, even though the control center says it's disabled, but it won't scan for networks [09:28] <_dsmith> and it outputs something to the affect of "Failed to read scan data" to the console. === _spjoe [~spjoe@M198P000.dipool.highway.telekom.at] has joined #kubuntu [09:29] have you edited the /etc/network/interfaces ?

[10:23] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=193041 -> can someone help me with getting the list of supported camera's updated after having compiled libgphoto2 from CVS? [10:27] <_sander> http://www.gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/support.php ? [10:29] I mean the list of supported camera's in the KDE control Center [10:29] I installed 2.1.6rc1 which includes support for the canon powershot a510 [10:29] however when i want to add a camera in KDE I can't find the A510 in the list [10:30] F_for_Fragging: where is that list? [10:31] i also wrote in the second post of the topic i linked to, but i mean peripherals -> digital camera -> in the kde control center [10:31] i mean peripherals -> digital camera -> add button [10:33] F_for_Fragging: I admint i've never looked at that module before, what does it do? [10:33] cameria:/ has always worked for me [10:33] camera:/ [10:34] camera:/ does work but it detects a USB PTP Class camera, not my A510 [10:35] what's the difference? [10:36] maybe it IS a PTP class cam? [10:36] A310 is... [10:36] well with libgphoto version 2.1.5, which is installed by default in kubuntu, it detects my a510 as a usb ptpt class cam. It does work, but not very well [10:36] what means "not very well"? [10:36] anyway, 2.1.6rc1 does have support for the a510 [10:37] not very well = sometimes digikam can connect to my camera and sometimes it can't [10:37] when it can't if have to delete the camera and then autodetect again [10:37] ten it can connect to the camera again and i can transfer my photo's [10:38] so basically i can get it to work with pulling some tricks, but I just need the newer version 2.1.6rc1 to get good support for my A510 [10:39] could you try to select a A310? [10:39] ...not PTP mode... [10:39] so I compiled 2.1.6rc1 without problems, as I wrote in my forum topic, but know the list of camera's which can be added in the KDe control center module doesn't update, which it should [10:40] selecting the A310 or any other model doesn't work, I already tried [10:40] hmm [10:41] but that's not really the problem, all I need is KDE to get the updated list of supported cams from libgphoto2 2.1.6rc1 to show up in the Control Center module [10:44] recompile kdegrapics...? [10:45] if that's required, kamera should depend on the exact libgphoto version btw... === synd [~synd`@h92.35.55.139.ip.alltel.net] has joined #kubuntu === synd [~synd`@h92.35.55.139.ip.alltel.net] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] === algo [~algo@host241-220.pool8258.interbusiness.it] has joined #kubuntu [10:48] if i have to recompile even more packages to get it to work I think I'll give up, I guess I have to wait for the next Kubuntu release to get support for my A510 then...
