| delltony | StR, did you get my pm? | 12:53 |
| StR | delltony: negative | 12:54 |
| StR | send it to my email | 12:54 |
| delltony | ok | 12:54 |
| StR | yes.. Xorg ... you aer having big troubles with it... | 12:55 |
| StR | try using full kde programs.. | 12:56 |
| delltony | you talking to me? | 12:56 |
| StR | use kopete instead of gaim | 12:56 |
| StR | delltony: yes... | 12:56 |
| StR | use konversation instead of xchat.. | 12:56 |
| StR | but it is still weird that Xorg is using 33.7% CPU | 12:57 |
| StR | and 12.1% RAM | 12:57 |
| StR | what video card dou you have? | 12:57 |
| delltony | just curious why is that such a big deal as in xchat over konversation? i mean the thing was fast before | 12:57 |
| delltony | and i was using xchat and all | 12:57 |
| delltony | but i'm listing to you | 12:57 |
| delltony | and i have a ati rage mobility card | 12:57 |
| delltony | using that flgrx driver | 12:58 |
| StR | I preffer to use all kde-qt apps, so I dont use any RAM for the GTK libs | 12:59 |
| delltony | i understand | 12:59 |
| StR | thats why i dont use xchat or gaim... | 12:59 |
| StR | sorry I cannot help you, I think it is the video card driver.. I dont realy know, beacuse I have an nvidia.... | 01:00 |
| StR | but I think thats the problem.. the video driver.. | 01:00 |
| delltony | hmm | 01:01 |
| delltony | anyone else wanna have a take at this | 01:01 |
| delltony | and thanks | 01:01 |
| StR | is that the ATI close driver? or is it the free driver? there was a proyect for ATI called GATOS | 01:01 |
| delltony | i'm using the one from atis site | 01:01 |
| delltony | i used the oone from ubuntu to start with | 01:01 |
| mrmanic | ati rage mobility is supported by fglrx? | 01:01 |
| delltony | and it sucks horse butt | 01:01 |
| delltony | well i have a dell laptop inspiron 9100 | 01:02 |
| delltony | and yeah i'm using the fglrx | 01:02 |
| delltony | the ubuntu one is bugged to hell wants to make a xfree file | 01:02 |
| delltony | thats why i use the one from ati | 01:02 |
| delltony | it makes the xorg file | 01:02 |
| mrmanic | just a warning, fglrx doesn't support suspending to ram (or really any kind of suspend that I managed to figure out) | 01:03 |
| mrmanic | I have an inspiron 8600 | 01:03 |
| delltony | what do you suggest then? | 01:03 |
| mrmanic | use the open source ati driver, I think. | 01:03 |
| delltony | which is? | 01:03 |
| mrmanic | ati | 01:04 |
| mrmanic | :) | 01:04 |
| mrmanic | let me check my xorg.conf | 01:04 |
| delltony | as in the one i have installed? | 01:04 |
| delltony | i downloaded the driver from atis site | 01:04 |
| delltony | and did the make and all on it | 01:04 |
| delltony | and modprobe | 01:04 |
| delltony | and then ran flgrx-config or whatever | 01:04 |
| mrmanic | no | 01:04 |
| mrmanic | not fglrx | 01:04 |
| delltony | then your confusing me :) | 01:04 |
| mrmanic | the driver is called ati | 01:05 |
| delltony | fglrx is the one from ati | 01:05 |
| mrmanic | b/c it's for ati cards | 01:05 |
| mrmanic | fglrx is the one from ati | 01:05 |
| mrmanic | yes. | 01:05 |
| delltony | ok | 01:05 |
| delltony | so apt-get install ati? | 01:05 |
| delltony | or what? | 01:05 |
| mrmanic | well, what exactly is your problem? | 01:06 |
| delltony | my system seems really really sluggish | 01:06 |
| delltony | as it takes for ever to run things | 01:06 |
| delltony | as if i/o's are off the chart or something | 01:06 |
| mrmanic | I doubt that has anything to do with fglrx | 01:06 |
| pointwood | hrm...where do I actually find the trashcan? | 01:06 |
| mrmanic | pointwood: is it not in your kicker? | 01:07 |
| delltony | i was just going on what someone else said | 01:07 |
| delltony | i thnk the video side of it is fine myself too | 01:07 |
| delltony | i think its something to do with the harddrive access time or something | 01:07 |
| delltony | or its in suspend or something i really don't know | 01:07 |
| delltony | thats why i'm asking | 01:07 |
| pointwood | I can't see any trashcan anywhere | 01:07 |
| mrmanic | I doubt it's in suspend. | 01:07 |
| delltony | any things you recommend checking then? | 01:08 |
| delltony | cause when i boot it up all is good | 01:08 |
| delltony | then after a while of use it gets slow as crap | 01:08 |

| mrmanic | pointwood: great | 01:08 |
| mrmanic | delltony: I don't really know how to help you | 01:09 |
| mrmanic | delltony: I'd check to see how much swap is being used | 01:09 |
| delltony | is there any kinda hdparms that couuld be set | 01:09 |
| doneill | has anybody else had problems with MD5sum mismatches on various packages? | 01:09 |
| mrmanic | I prefer to use none of my swap | 01:09 |
| doneill | err, doing an apt-get that is. | 01:09 |
| mrmanic | doneill: not I | 01:09 |
| delltony | check that with top right | 01:09 |
| mrmanic | delltony: that's a way to check it, yeah. | 01:09 |

| ecarroll | Is there anyway i can tell what version of gcc a kernel is built with as it sits on a repository; I am installing VMWare, and it requires i have the same version of gcc to make a module for it, unforntuatly the gcc on the repos with v3.3.5 is a symlink to a newer gcc and that just doesn't float with VMWare i need to know if the new 2.6.12, is built with the newer gcc or if i should just download sources and build my own | 01:14 |
| doneill | ecarroll: readelf | 01:14 |
| doneill | nevermind | 01:14 |
| doneill | it's probably compressed anyway | 01:14 |
| mrmanic | delltony: what kind of power management settings do you have? | 01:15 |
| doneill | ecarroll: can you boot into it? | 01:16 |
| ecarroll | Anyone using breezy with new 2.6.12 that can tell me what version of gcc there kernel was built with | 01:16 |
| ecarroll | Yes i'm in the machine now i just don't want to have to download 14megs unless new kernel is built with v4.x of gcc as VMWare requires, otherwise i need to download sources anyway | 01:16 |
| ecarroll | if you have v2.6.11 or higher (breezy only i believe) pelase tell me the cat /proc/version and read to me the gcc number | 01:18 |

| delltony | mrmanic, i have no idea on that | 01:24 |
| delltony | i thought apc was turned off | 01:24 |
| mrmanic | apc? | 01:25 |
| delltony | advanced power management | 01:25 |
| delltony | or whatever its called | 01:25 |
| mrmanic | I think power management in kubuntu is handled by acpi | 01:25 |
| delltony | thats what i mean | 01:25 |
| mrmanic | did you turn it off manually? | 01:25 |
| mrmanic | it's on by default, I believe | 01:25 |
| mrmanic | I could be wrong on that one, of course. | 01:25 |
| delltony | i thought it was noacpi | 01:26 |
| delltony | cause there are issues with it or was issues with it | 01:27 |
| mrmanic | oh | 01:28 |
| mrmanic | acpi is on for me, I'm using it to suspend to ram successfully. | 01:29 |
| mrmanic | maybe it's noacpi on the 9100 | 01:29 |
| delltony | i don'tk now | 01:29 |
| KaiL | are you maybe searching for apic? | 01:29 |
| KaiL | (a function to have more then 16 IRQs and VERY often broken on VIA boards?) | 01:30 |
| mrmanic | I used to have to run my system nolapic in order to do S3 | 01:30 |
| delltony | i'm just looking for a reason to why this laptop is so damn slow lately :( | 01:30 |
| KaiL | delltony: what laptop? | 01:33 |
| delltony | dell inspirion 9100 | 01:33 |
| KaiL | maybe the cd/dvd is hdb and has no dma enabled? (that was afaik also a Dell) | 01:34 |
| delltony | i'm not playing a dvd at this point | 01:34 |
| delltony | s what does that have to do with anything ? | 01:34 |
| delltony | its overall system is slow | 01:34 |
| delltony | like the harddrive is fragmented to hell and back ro something i'm not sure what the issue is | 01:35 |
| delltony | but its annoying none the less | 01:35 |
| KaiL | uh, mobile P4 | 01:35 |
| KaiL | apt-get install linux-686-smp | 01:35 |
| === Consty [grimlock@63.146.73.44] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| KaiL | (to enable HT) | 01:35 |
| delltony | aww so thats how you enable it | 01:36 |
| KaiL | ...and don't even THINK about disabling apic, afaik that breaks a lot | 01:36 |
| delltony | i don't knwo how to disable it | 01:36 |
| delltony | but i thought it was disabled | 01:36 |
| delltony | from bootup it says nolapci or whatever | 01:36 |
| delltony | any way to check | 01:36 |
| delltony | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 01:37 |
| delltony | libpostproc-dev: Depends: libavcodec-dev (= 3:0.cvs20050121-1ubuntu1) | 01:37 |
| delltony | linux-686-smp: Depends: linux-image-686-smp but it is not going to be installed | 01:37 |
| delltony | Depends: linux-restricted-modules-686-smp but it is not going to be installed | 01:37 |
| delltony | E: Unmet dependencies. Try apt-get -f install with no packages (or specify a solution). | 01:37 |
| delltony | delltony@bubbabox:/proc$ | 01:37 |
| KaiL | interesting... | 01:37 |
| delltony | nah i know why that h appened i think | 01:37 |
| KaiL | sudo apt-get update | 01:37 |
| delltony | i did the -f install to correct it i thin its working now | 01:38 |
| delltony | will keep you posted | 01:38 |
| KaiL | you aren't runninmg breezy, or? :) | 01:38 |
| delltony | no i'm on h oary | 01:39 |
| delltony | i learned my lession on hoary dev builds | 01:39 |
| KaiL | hehe | 01:39 |
| delltony | it hosed me big time when i tried to convert | 01:39 |
| delltony | but i learned alot | 01:39 |
| delltony | haha | 01:39 |
| delltony | didn't realize yo had to downgrade to upgrade | 01:39 |
| KaiL | in fact I'm not even sure, what is better now, as there was something with HT + Speedstep... | 01:39 |
| delltony | i had backports and so forth but anyway thats another issue | 01:39 |
| delltony | well how you get apci to work? | 01:40 |
| delltony | or check to see if its working? | 01:40 |
| delltony | or not loaded | 01:40 |
| delltony | cause i swear i thought it was noapci on this thing | 01:40 |
| KaiL | look at kmenu -> system -> infocenter -> interrupts | 01:41 |
| KaiL | if you have IRQ-Numbers >15, apic must be on | 01:41 |
| KaiL | aah, you said slow! | 01:42 |
| KaiL | the CPU-Clock! | 01:42 |
| delltony | yeah | 01:42 |
| delltony | its really slow for some reason | 01:42 |
| delltony | not sure if its harddrive i/o's or the cpu is not processing it fast enough ro what | 01:43 |
| KaiL | could you look at "processor" in the infocenter? ;) | 01:43 |
| delltony | ok what do you want me to look for ? | 01:43 |
| delltony | or report? | 01:43 |
| KaiL | the clock | 01:43 |
| === delltony is a semi newbi per say :) | ||
| KaiL | "cpu MHz" or so | 01:44 |
| delltony | 2793.714 | 01:44 |
| delltony | by the way that kernel image installed | 01:45 |
| delltony | don't i reboot and select it with grub | 01:45 |
| KaiL | 2,8GHz seams to be a typical value for a P4 | 01:45 |
| doneill | speed is ranked in fops | 01:46 |
| doneill | frequency is intel hype, mostly :) | 01:46 |
| doneill | overclocking often reduces performance | 01:46 |
| delltony | i haven't overclocked | 01:47 |
| doneill | i'm just saying | 01:47 |
| KaiL | doneill: even better "only P4 needs >2GHz" :) | 01:47 |
| delltony | understood | 01:47 |
| doneill | higher frequency != faster | 01:47 |
| doneill | not to you personally :) | 01:47 |
| === doneill wanders off | ||
| delltony | so anyway just reboot now? | 01:47 |
| delltony | with the ht enabled kernel? | 01:47 |
| delltony | or anything else i should check | 01:47 |
| KaiL | yes | 01:47 |
| delltony | how about hdparms? | 01:47 |
| KaiL | nop | 01:47 |
| delltony | ok | 01:47 |
| delltony | let me try | 01:47 |
| delltony | oh and what about the acpi? | 01:48 |
| delltony | i had 16,17,18,28 irqs | 01:48 |
| delltony | so it appears tobe on | 01:48 |
| KaiL | then you have apic | 01:48 |
| delltony | let me restart then | 01:48 |
| delltony | do i have to select it from grub | 01:48 |
| delltony | or does it default to it automatically? | 01:48 |
| KaiL | better look into the list | 01:48 |
| KaiL | if it's the first entry, it'll be default | 01:49 |
| delltony | ok | 01:49 |
| delltony | any way to look into the list instead of acutally on physical boot? | 01:49 |
| KaiL | you could look into /boot/grup/menu.lst | 01:50 |
| delltony | yeah its the first one | 01:50 |

| delltony | haha | 02:16 |
| delltony | nah i'm trying to pull some stuuff off of torrentflux but when i select all links it does the phps too | 02:16 |

| gassman | hello quick qeustion here i recently installed kubuntu after using SuSE for the past six months after the installation was done kde booted fine but my probelm is i never got to se the root password anybody know what happened?? | 04:53 |
| CellarDoor | is anyone using mythtv on their kubuntu box atm ? | 04:53 |
| CellarDoor | ah | 04:54 |
| CellarDoor | you don't set a root password | 04:54 |
| gassman | ok | 04:54 |
| gassman | what do i do | 04:54 |
| nmorse | use sudo | 04:54 |
| gassman | what is that | 04:54 |
| gassman | i have never used a debien distro | 04:54 |
| nmorse | It's like su, but easier to use | 04:54 |
| CellarDoor | yah | 04:55 |
| nmorse | It's an Ubuntu thing, not a Debian thing, actually | 04:55 |
| gassman | $ sudo | 04:55 |
| CellarDoor | iyam a bit of a n00b and sudo is my friend | 04:55 |
| nmorse | It asks for your user password | 04:55 |
| nmorse | Then works like su | 04:55 |
| gassman | ok there has to b a password | 04:55 |
| gassman | ill try | 04:55 |
| nmorse | If you really want a root password, you can make one | 04:56 |
| nmorse | But it's not necessary | 04:56 |
| CellarDoor | :) | 04:56 |
| gassman | do i type sudo plus username | 04:56 |
| nmorse | No, just sudo | 04:56 |
| nmorse | followed by the command | 04:56 |
| CellarDoor | it will ask for your user password | 04:57 |
| gassman | ok | 04:57 |
| Consty | nmorse: kinda sucks that sound doesn't work with the live cd, but I can wait till the next release. | 04:57 |
| gassman | so for example sudo ./install software | 04:57 |
| nmorse | "sudo apt-get install gramps" is an example | 04:57 |
| Consty | nmorse: unless the 5.04.2 fixes it and has a newer version of alsa or the .11 kernel? | 04:57 |
| CellarDoor | hmm whats gramps ? | 04:57 |
| CellarDoor | ;) | 04:57 |
| nmorse | What software are you installing from ./? | 04:57 |
| nmorse | Gramps is a genealogy program | 04:57 |
| CellarDoor | aah | 04:58 |
| crimsun | err, what card, Consty? | 04:58 |
| gassman | flash plugin | 04:58 |
| Consty | crimsun: Audigy 2 Value | 04:58 |
| crimsun | that does work | 04:58 |
| nmorse | There's a flash plugin in non-free, gassman | 04:58 |
| CellarDoor | so... no one's using MythTV at all ? | 04:58 |
| Consty | crimsun: nah, its bugged or something | 04:58 |
| crimsun | you just need to install alsa-source from universe | 04:58 |
| Consty | crimsun: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=21211 | 04:58 |
| crimsun | didn't I walk you through that procedure? | 04:58 |
| Consty | yeah | 04:58 |
| nmorse | my family uses GeneWeb though | 04:58 |
| CellarDoor | I've got a bone to pick | 04:59 |
| gassman | so sudo is easier that su | 04:59 |
| nmorse | It's nice to see a program written in OCaml in common use | 04:59 |
| Consty | it works for my installation of kubuntu, but for the live cd? | 04:59 |
| nmorse | sudo is easier than su, yes | 04:59 |
| CellarDoor | yeah I like sudo | 04:59 |
| gassman | but is it as secure | 04:59 |
| nmorse | Yeah, actually | 04:59 |
| nmorse | There's a file called /etc/sudoers | 04:59 |
| gassman | with su u have a totaly diffent password | 04:59 |
| crimsun | Consty: you can do the same for the live cd | 04:59 |
| nmorse | It lets you set sudo policies | 04:59 |
| crimsun | Consty: your changes are not saved, of course... | 04:59 |
| nmorse | check out your sudoers file sometime | 04:59 |
| gassman | this is like a differnt world | 04:59 |
| nmorse | Yeah, an easier one | 05:00 |
| Consty | crimsun: Well the network where I use it in not connected to the internet. | 05:00 |
| gassman | well i been using linux for only six months and used strictly suse | 05:00 |
| gassman | is there a sharp learning curve?? | 05:00 |
| nmorse | I didn't like SUSE much | 05:00 |
| CellarDoor | I think sudo was started by Apple wasn't it ? | 05:00 |
| nmorse | I don't think so | 05:00 |
| CellarDoor | nevermind me then | 05:01 |
| CellarDoor | :P | 05:01 |
| nmorse | gassman: Ubuntu/Kubuntu has the lowest learning curve of any distro I've ever tried | 05:01 |
| nmorse | I've tried about two dozen and a half dozen other OS's | 05:01 |
| Octane | any good mailing lists here for amd64 kubuntu users? | 05:01 |
| CellarDoor | I learned more in a week of using kubuntu than I did in nine months of using mandrake | 05:01 |
| gassman | how | 05:02 |
| CellarDoor | simplicity | 05:02 |
| CellarDoor | and plenty of help at the ubuntu site | 05:02 |
| CellarDoor | and in here too ;) | 05:02 |
| Consty | Yeah the community really sets ubuntu way ahead of the rest. | 05:03 |
| CellarDoor | I found I just started learning linux basics more easily and it didn't seem as complicated | 05:03 |
| gassman | but i cant install flash player in the konqueror browser should i download firefox instead and if so how do i go about getting it from apt-get | 05:04 |
| CellarDoor | hmm should be info on flash at the ubuntu site | 05:05 |
| Consty | konqueror completely supports firefox's plugins, so it should work just fine. | 05:05 |

| gassman | well i geuss i will trouble shoot and try to figure it out | 05:07 |
| nmorse | Just install the flash plugin from the mozilla-flash package | 05:07 |
| nmorse | Then go to Konqueror's Plugin set and hit Scan for New Plugins | 05:07 |
| gassman | another qeustion when i go to control panel it asks for a password do i use my password | 05:07 |
| nmorse | Yeah | 05:08 |
| CellarDoor | add multiverse repository then so "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" | 05:08 |
| nmorse | Anywhere you would use the root password, use yours | 05:08 |
| gassman | this is way diffrent than other linux distro i use | 05:08 |
| nmorse | Yeah, but it's easier for most stuff too | 05:09 |
| gassman | think i better hang out here alot till i get used to this distro | 05:09 |
| nmorse | Welcome to the group, then | 05:09 |
| gassman | is this the default irc channel for kubuntu | 05:09 |

| CellarDoor | gassman, the ubuntu site is great for getting help from | 05:12 |
| gassman | i will check it out | 05:13 |
| CellarDoor | It has guided me though how to install repositories and stuff when I had never used a Debian based distro before | 05:14 |
| Octane | friggin kynpatic wont remember my root pw | 05:14 |
| CellarDoor | ? | 05:15 |
| CellarDoor | my kynaptic is acting a bit funny | 05:15 |
| gassman | cellardoor duno how u install plugin with that command it gives me $couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree | 05:15 |
| gassman | what the hell is nonfree | 05:16 |
| CellarDoor | yeah, gassman you have to set up repositories first | 05:16 |
| gassman | o yeah | 05:16 |
| CellarDoor | flashplugin-nonfree is in the multiverse repository | 05:16 |
| gassman | repository with apt-get | 05:17 |
| CellarDoor | once you've done that you can happily install most plugins with a simple command | 05:17 |
| CellarDoor | yeah | 05:17 |

| dudinatrix | Hi there.. I'm a linux noob, currently just installed Ubuntu and am trying to use Synaptics to install kubuntu-desktop. Looks like it's failing on a few packages, saying there are md5sum errors. I see something about that in the topic... think thats my problem? I just want to make sure before moving ahead | 05:30 |
| nmorse | yeah | 05:30 |
| Octane | why is it that i cant run kde apps from Konsole | 05:30 |
| nmorse | run the sudo sed command above | 05:30 |
| === _mae [~mae@dpc674653178.direcpc.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nmorse | huh? | 05:30 |
| monchy | what exactly does it do nmorse? the sudo sed cmd that is | 05:30 |
| nmorse | It replaces the us.archive.ubuntu.org with just archive.ubuntu.org | 05:31 |
| Octane | say what, nmorse ? | 05:31 |
| dudinatrix | should i replace it back after doing the kubuntu-desktop install, or leave it like that? | 05:31 |
| nmorse | Sed is a regular expressions tool for altering text | 05:31 |
| monchy | oh, so it's just the same as doing it via sudo kedit etc etc | 05:31 |
| nmorse | Yeah | 05:31 |
| monchy | k, thanks ^^ | 05:31 |
| nmorse | Except without an editor | 05:31 |

| nmorse | dudinatrix: just leave your sources.list the way it ends up after the command | 05:32 |
| monchy | i'm sure us/ca will be fixed in no time | 05:32 |
| dudinatrix | thanks nmorse.. appreciate it! | 05:32 |
| Octane | nmorse, wheneve rit ry to run things from Konsole, like kwrite, i get the error "cannot connect to X server" | 05:32 |
| nmorse | Okay, are you logged in as you? | 05:32 |
| nmorse | or as root? | 05:33 |
| Octane | yes | 05:33 |
| Octane | root@dan:/home/dan/download # kwrite | 05:33 |
| Octane | kwrite: cannot connect to X server | 05:33 |
| nmorse | you can't do it as root unless you export several variables I don't remember | 05:33 |

| nmorse | Octane: you'll have to use sudo to get X apps to work as root | 05:34 |
| Octane | nmorse, alright ill live, thanks :) | 05:36 |
| dudinatrix | when installing kubuntu-desktop.. is the "select the desired default display manager" just specifying gdm if i want gnome by default, and kdm if i want kde by default? or is this refering to something else? | 05:41 |
| nmorse | dadgummit, what's it take to get into #freebsd? | 05:41 |
| nmorse | No, KDM and GDM are seperate programs | 05:41 |
| mrmanic | dudinatrix: gdm is the gnome login manager, and kdm is the kde login manager | 05:41 |
| nmorse | They're the login managers | 05:41 |
| nmorse | I prefer KDM, some prefer GDM | 05:41 |
| nmorse | XDM is the devil | 05:41 |
| mrmanic | dudinatrix: you can choose either desktop environment from either of them. | 05:41 |
| nmorse | and startxfce4 is the bomb | 05:41 |
| dudinatrix | can i switch it later? | 05:41 |
| mrmanic | iaw nmorse, XDM is the devil | 05:41 |
| mrmanic | dudinatrix: sure | 05:42 |
| === _tron [~tron@201.247.88.96] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| dudinatrix | awesome... KDM it is ;) | 05:42 |
| dudinatrix | thanks | 05:42 |
| nmorse | mrmanic: every try XDM on Vector Linux? | 05:42 |
| mrmanic | nmorse: no. | 05:43 |
| mrmanic | I tried xdm for a little while when I hosed my kdm config :\ | 05:43 |
| nmorse | XDM on Vector is a whole nother experience | 05:44 |
| nmorse | It's like it's trying to be a real display manager | 05:44 |
| nmorse | But it still is horrible at it | 05:44 |
| nmorse | I hate trying to use XDM for stuff, I'd rather open twm and then hit startkde | 05:45 |
| dudinatrix | wow that seemed way too easy.. looks like kubuntu-desktop is installed. time to reboot -- thanks again for your help :) | 05:49 |

| Octane | parabolize, same here | 06:46 |
| Octane | sudo kwrit works though | 06:46 |
| parabolize | funky the error changed. this time it said something reakky simple like kate: error kate could not load | 06:47 |
| nmorse | Yeah, the error's never the same | 06:48 |
| nmorse | It really bugs me | 06:48 |

| nmorse | When you're parabolize | 06:52 |

| nmorse | and if you do load it as root, it doesn't work because you can't connect to the X server | 06:55 |
| Octane | when i run gpg, nothing happens after this line, i can only exist by doing ctrl-c -- gpg: keyring `/root/.gnupg/pubring.gpg' created | 06:55 |
| parabolize | its been a long time sense I used kde. /etc/init.d/kdm stop well turn off x and all the opengl stuff right? | 06:56 |

| nmorse | dadgummit, for a second almost everybody left according to Konversation, and then came right back | 07:06 |
| dudinatrix | i tried to change an icon theme.. there were like 4 themes in there and i tried applying one (don't recall the name), then everything went nuts. so, note to self.. ignore those icon themes for a while.. ;) | 07:06 |
| dudinatrix | wow, was that a net split? at least, i think that was the termonology from back in the day. it's been a while since i've been on irc. | 07:07 |
| nmorse | Wait, don't uninstall it | 07:07 |
| mrmanic | that was a netsplit, yeah | 07:07 |
| nmorse | Add 'deb http://kubuntu.org/ hoary-updates main' to your /etc/apt/sources.list | 07:08 |
| nmorse | Then do a 'sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' | 07:08 |
| dudinatrix | ok.. i'll give that a try | 07:09 |
| dudinatrix | E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied) | 07:11 |
| dudinatrix | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? | 07:11 |
| dudinatrix | any idea what that means? | 07:11 |
| nmorse | Didn't use sudo | 07:12 |
| dudinatrix | i did though | 07:12 |
| nmorse | Hmm, do 'sudo apt-get upgrade' | 07:13 |
| nmorse | I seem to have left that off up there | 07:13 |
| dudinatrix | looks like its trying to upgrade kaffeine and knetworkconf ... is that what i want? | 07:14 |
| nmorse | It should upgrade more than that | 07:15 |
| nmorse | try replacing that kubuntu.org line with the one in the topic | 07:15 |
| nmorse | Hopefully the 3.4.1 update will fix the problem then | 07:16 |
| dudinatrix | ahhh there, now its upgrading a bunch | 07:16 |
| nmorse | Hopefully that will fix it | 07:17 |
| dudinatrix | if not, i can do that --purge you mentioned, right? | 07:17 |
| nmorse | Yeah, that should do it | 07:18 |
| dudinatrix | you're awesome.. thanks for the 5th time! | 07:18 |

| nmorse | Yeah, but mv'ing directories is a skill I've never been good at | 07:26 |
| dudinatrix | ahh man. | 07:27 |
| nmorse | Didn't work? | 07:28 |
| dudinatrix | its trying to do another update, linux-image-2.6.10-5-386_2.6.10-34.2_i386.deb --- I tried doing it before, but it fails because i'm using ndiswrapper for my wireless.. so anyway, its not part of the kde upgrade, but its trying to do the linux-image one and fails.. and shoots it back to the command prompt | 07:28 |

| Tm_T | hmm | 12:49 |
| dreumah | what is better to install kubuntu or ubuntu? | 12:50 |
| Tm_T | dreumah: Kubuntu <3 | 12:50 |
| dreumah | i see | 12:50 |
| Somez | Kubuntu is marvelous :-) | 12:50 |
| Tm_T | dreumah: I think it's best to install Ubuntu and then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ;) | 12:50 |
| Tm_T | so you got them both | 12:50 |
| dreumah | but i really just need one of them no? | 12:51 |
| Somez | :-) | 12:51 |
| Somez | yeah | 12:51 |
| Tm_T | yup | 12:51 |
| Somez | if you want to use a gnome based app, then you can simply install the corresponding packages | 12:51 |
| Somez | so gnome apps are also working with kubuntu | 12:51 |
| Somez | of course :-) | 12:51 |
| dreumah | cool | 12:52 |
| dreumah | what package manager is the best one to use? | 12:52 |
| Tm_T | apt | 12:52 |
| Tm_T | all you need is apt | 12:52 |
| dreumah | so synaptic | 12:52 |
| dreumah | or kynaptics? | 12:52 |
| CruNcher | kpackage | 12:52 |
| Tm_T | no, apt | 12:52 |
| dreumah | shell apt | 12:53 |
| CruNcher | Tm_T ithink hes talking about a gui for it :P | 12:53 |
| dreumah | ? | 12:53 |
| dreumah | yeah | 12:53 |
| Somez | synaptic is also good for newbies | 12:53 |
| Tm_T | gui :/ | 12:53 |
| Tm_T | apt <3 | 12:53 |
| CruNcher | kpackage :D | 12:53 |
| Somez | :-) | 12:53 |
| CruNcher | Tm_T ubuntu wants 10% Marketshare by 2010 only with apt that will be hard to reach ;) | 12:54 |
| dreumah | do i need a firewall? | 12:54 |
| dreumah | virus scanner? | 12:55 |
| Tm_T | nope | 12:55 |
| === Wolvy [~chatzilla@host76-38.pool80183.interbusiness.it] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| === sucubii is now known as incubii | ||
| dreumah | so firestarter is a firewall then | 01:04 |
| Tm_T | nno, it's a gui for a firewall | 01:04 |
| Tm_T | just like synaptic | 01:05 |
| dreumah | ahhh | 01:05 |
| Tm_T | is gui for apt | 01:05 |
| dreumah | how does firestarter compare to guarddog then? | 01:05 |
| Tm_T | haven't use guarddog so I don't know | 01:06 |
| === kasim [~anwender@pD902321C.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| Tm_T | heh | 01:07 |

| folken | Tm_T the correct package name seems to be msttcorefonts. Its also referenced by openoffice2.org .. but i'm unable to find it. | 01:10 |
| Tm_T | folken: I think it's in multiverse... | 01:11 |
| folken | Tm_T hmm might be a classic case of Plbkac.. | 01:12 |

| Tm_T | folken: have you done "apt-get update" ;) | 01:12 |
| folken | Tm_T ok, its confirmed.. i'm a bozo.. forgott one line in sources.list. | 01:13 |
| folken | Tm_T thx for making me think about it again. :) | 01:14 |
| Tm_T | =) | 01:14 |
| airox | Are there some major issues that are solved in 3.4.1 btw ? | 01:14 |
| Tm_T | airox: bugfixes etc | 01:14 |
| Tm_T | no reason to stick with 3.4.0 | 01:14 |
| airox | Ok. | 01:14 |
| folken | airox: if your talking about kde.. its a lot better than 3.4.0. Virtually no segfaults.. | 01:15 |
| airox | hehe | 01:15 |
| folken | its the first kde that i dare to use day-to-day.. and mind you i'm a diehard fvwm user. | 01:15 |

| CruNcher | (airox): Konqueror is rather slow imho. When I enter a page it waits for a while before fetching and displaying the page. What could be the problem ? <- same here seems its fetching everything before displaying can this be changed to firefox "display as it loads style" ? | 01:21 |
| airox | Yes, exactly CruNcher. | 01:21 |
| airox | Strange behaviour :) | 01:21 |
| airox | When you aren't used to it. | 01:22 |
| CruNcher | jep | 01:22 |
| edulix | hi ! | 01:22 |
| airox | hi edulix ! | 01:22 |
| edulix | anyone have azureus here ? | 01:22 |
| airox | Yes. | 01:22 |
| edulix | for each second I have the azureus window opened, Xorg uses more and more memory. both swap and ram | 01:22 |
| edulix | when it's docked it doesn't happen | 01:22 |
| edulix | (docked == in the system tray) | 01:22 |
| CruNcher | edulix hehe | 01:23 |
| CruNcher | same behaviour as on windows | 01:23 |
| edulix | I mean, yesterday I noticed Xorg was taking 791mb of swap you know... then I run out of swap and the PC freezed | 01:23 |
| airox | Anybody got some suggestions about nice applications for KDE ? :) | 01:24 |
| CruNcher | i think thats the pain of java ;) | 01:24 |
| edulix | CruNcher: well are you sure ? | 01:24 |
| edulix | CruNcher: I mean, it's not that "oh shit java, slow, memory hungry". it seems more like a buffer overflow or something | 01:25 |
| CruNcher | i only know that behaviour exactly as you describe it from the Windows version | 01:25 |
| edulix | oh | 01:25 |
| CruNcher | the azureus windows is wide open it sucks memory all the time | 01:25 |
| CruNcher | you minimize it its back to normal | 01:25 |
| CruNcher | you open it again it starts sucking | 01:25 |
| airox | hehe | 01:26 |
| edulix | CruNcher: minimize or send to system tray ? | 01:26 |
| CruNcher | minimize is enough so the gui is not drawn | 01:26 |
| edulix | ah true, I just checked | 01:26 |
| CruNcher | i think it has todo with java and the gui | 01:26 |
| CruNcher | and im sure we not the only one who expirience that | 01:27 |
| edulix | CruNcher: but when I minimize it doesn't back to normal | 01:27 |
| edulix | it just stop sucking more | 01:27 |
| edulix | :P | 01:27 |
| CruNcher | and that it should be fixed long time if it wasn't a generic java problem | 01:27 |
| CruNcher | so i bet it is a java problem ;) | 01:27 |
| edulix | I don't know azureus internals, so who knows. I think it's risky to blame this or this other | 01:28 |
| dreumah | use amule | 01:28 |
| CruNcher | yeah that behaviour was one reason i changed to bitcomet on windows tough | 01:28 |
| edulix | CruNcher: in windows memory usage goes bakc to normal or it just stop sucking more memory ? there's a big difference you know ;) | 01:29 |
| CruNcher | in windows every app you close the guis memory gets freed | 01:30 |
| edulix | azureus is a very good bittorrent client apart from that, it's a pitty. I'll end this download and then stop using it (in fact this is the first time I download with azureus) | 01:30 |
| edulix | CruNcher: here the problem is that it's Xorg the one who sucks more memory, but not azureus | 01:30 |
| CruNcher | maybe the problem gets relayed from java to Xorg because X draws the windows in the end | 01:31 |
| edulix | it must be a very noticeable problem programatically talking, because it sucks soo much memory. I bet that someone with enough knoweldge could profile and trace the problem easily | 01:33 |
| edulix | "free the mallocs!" | 01:33 |
| CruNcher | thats why im sure it should have been fixed long time ago | 01:33 |
| edulix | #azureus seems dead. and yesterday happened the same | 01:35 |
| CruNcher | no doubt azureus is a good client but this gui sucks memory like hell problem is pain | 01:35 |
| CruNcher | and i really really doubt that the azureus programmer never saw this problem either on Linux or Windows so iam sure it is Java based and they can't fix it :P | 01:36 |
| CruNcher | same as for the Firefox redraw problem on Windows :p | 01:37 |
| CruNcher | still not fixed | 01:37 |
| CruNcher | but there a bug report is existing :P | 01:37 |
| CruNcher | http://azureus.sourceforge.net/faq.php#5 | 01:40 |
| airox | Does kubuntu show usb flash sticks on the desktop when you plug them in | 01:40 |
| airox | ? | 01:40 |
| edulix | CruNcher: let me see | 01:42 |
| edulix | CruNcher: the most lightweight bittorrent client I've found is artic (http://www.int64.org/arctic.html), but it seems it's just-for-windows hehe | 01:43 |
| edulix | people say it uses ~3mb ofram and very little CPU | 01:43 |
| ro28 | CruNcher: tried mldonkey? | 01:44 |
| edulix | java -showversion | 01:45 |
| edulix | java version "1.5.0_01" | 01:45 |
| edulix | so that's not the problem | 01:45 |

| osh | buz: It's a good thing, but I think an update should be added to the real repos... | 09:03 |
| osh | dreumah: type /topic | 09:03 |
| buz | it's not an official update | 09:03 |
| osh | dreumah: then add the "deb http...." thingy to /etc/apt/sources.list | 09:03 |
| dreumah | what is the deb http thing? | 09:04 |
| osh | dreumah: Read the lines you get when you type /topic and you'll understand. | 09:04 |
| dreumah | ok i did that and then what do i do? | 09:08 |

| allee | Hi | 09:22 |
| afrosheen | hello | 09:23 |
| nmorse | hi | 09:23 |
| allee | I've duplicated hoary to another partion to test an breezy update. What's necessary to run grub-install in a chroot enviroment? | 09:23 |
| allee | partition that is | 09:23 |
| afrosheen | dunno, personally I freakin hate grub :/ | 09:24 |
| afrosheen | I figured out how to do something like that once after pulling some hairs out and reading the man page though | 09:24 |
| allee | afrosheen: at least this was easier with lilo (-C) ;) | 09:25 |
| allee | afrosheen: grub-install man an info page do not help here :( | 09:25 |
| nmorse | lilo is way better if you ask me | 09:25 |
| afrosheen | allee, that's why I can't stand grub, it's too hard..you can't even remove it like you can with lilo | 09:25 |
| allee | afrosheen, nmorse: yeah, over the years one can get used to lilo | 09:27 |
| allee | I guess lilo would have some problems too with udev and missing dev nodes in chroot | 09:28 |
| afrosheen | what's the stunt to pass kernel options right before you reboot | 09:30 |
| allee | afrosheen: what was 'something' like that. Maybe this gets me going with grub in my case too | 09:30 |
| allee | afrosheen: you mean grub-reboot? | 09:31 |
| === neko [~neko@samhain.plus.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| allee | red22: will, wild guess: did you try a second hardware? Maybe you hardware has problems and not the CD? | 11:16 |
| red22 | if i'm getting errors with install with the kubuntu iso, do you think that it would be worth it to try the regular ubuntu download? or will i probably get the same errors? | 11:16 |

| allee | red22: same partition? | 11:17 |
| red22 | yeah, i format/repartition over the previous linux installs | 11:18 |
| afrosheen | ATI = ancient terror inside | 11:18 |
| mrmanic | _uli: you should probably just ask the question | 11:18 |
| _uli | lol | 11:18 |
| mrmanic | nate: http://winehq.com/hypermail/wine-users/2001/04/0214.html | 11:19 |
| mrmanic | nate: not sure if that helps | 11:19 |
| _uli | oke, i have an kubuntu installation (2.6.10-5) and THEN i tried the NEW ati-installer (because i have a ati 9700) ..installation complete. oke. BUT, then "glxinfo" does not work anymore | 11:19 |
| red22 | allee: i'm using ext3 format for the kubuntu partition, in case it matters | 11:20 |
| _uli | because: glxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 11:20 |
| allee | red22: sorry no idea. I've didn't have a problem with the Kubuntu CD | 11:20 |
| allee | red22: here ext3 too | 11:20 |
| red22 | :( | 11:20 |
| red22 | thanks for trying though | 11:20 |
| _uli | anyone got an idea, what might be wrong? :-( | 11:20 |
| mrmanic | _uli: you're better off using the fglrx packages for kubuntu. | 11:21 |
| afrosheen | _uli, I think he's right, however, do a 'locate libGL' real quick first | 11:21 |
| _uli | but the kubuntu packages are very slow, (although they worked, i tried out in the last ) | 11:21 |
| _uli | okey, i made a locate, i got a list of some | 11:21 |
| red22 | i'll try debian instead, see if it installs. couldn't you just install debian and then download the "kubuntu-desktop" package? would that work? | 11:21 |
| Tm_T | eh | 11:22 |
| _uli | and then? | 11:22 |
| mrmanic | red22: I wouldn't recommend that. | 11:22 |
| mrmanic | _uli: figure out where it's expecting libGL.so.1 and make sure that you have a link to the correct libGL.so.1 in that location, I think. | 11:23 |
| _uli | hmmm | 11:23 |
| mrmanic | red22: what kind of errors? | 11:23 |
| _uli | how can i figure out, *where* it's expecting libGl? (me = noob) | 11:23 |
| red22 | i get segfaults and package dependency errors early on during "installing base ubuntu files" | 11:24 |
| mrmanic | _uli: I don't use fglrx anymore, so I can't really help you. | 11:24 |
| mrmanic | _uli: that's bad. are you sure it's not faulty hardware? | 11:24 |
| mrmanic | er | 11:24 |
| mrmanic | misfire | 11:24 |
| mrmanic | red22: that's bad. are you sure it's not faulty hardware? | 11:24 |
| red22 | yup, mandrake and fedora installed fine. | 11:25 |
| gdh | hardly a surefire test :/ | 11:25 |
| gdh | the standard response is 'run memtest86' overnight | 11:25 |
| gdh | however, there's also stuff like 'cpuburn' and 'stress' to give your whole I/O and CPU systems a thorough ragging | 11:26 |
| red22 | i don't know, after both others installed without a hitch and about 10 (unsuccessful) tries of kubuntu, i'm pretty confident it isn't hardware. | 11:26 |
| red22 | i downloaded twice and checked md5 sums and burned with different programs to make sure, and all had the same result on my machine. | 11:27 |
| red22 | just very odd. | 11:27 |
| mrmanic | agreed | 11:27 |
| red22 | i mean it's the SAME iso everyone is downloading how could i be having package dep problems? it complains about a python package and some others. | 11:28 |

| red22 | afrosheen, ah, so maybe removing the connection while installing could help? | 11:40 |
| afrosheen | possibly, who knows..does it go to the net during install? | 11:41 |
| red22 | i'll try that. it's worth avoiding yet another 600 mb download | 11:41 |
| red22 | i don't know, don't think so, but before it installs the packages, it does ask you to configure you ip and whatnot | 11:42 |
| red22 | *your* | 11:42 |
| red22 | it is very possible... most other distros ask you to setup your network AFTER everything else is installed | 11:42 |
