| EvanCarroll | ... what kind of dumb ass remark was that. | 01:36 |
| transgress | less of one than someone saying breezy is borked | 01:37 |
| EvanCarroll | Breezy usually boot, when they upload a package that prevents it from booting, i feel obligated to tell other people, got it? | 01:37 |
| transgress | umm... breezy has barely been booting for a while... you shouldn't feel obligated to tell something that is fairly common knowledge... it's kind of like telling a 30 yo man that santa isn't real | 01:38 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | how do you seperate the stuff in k-menu from ubuntu stuff? | 01:41 |
| EvanCarroll | transgress: explain how the topic relates to breezy not booting? | 01:41 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | theres too much crap in the menu | 01:41 |
| transgress | EvanCarroll: read the god damn thing | 01:41 |
| EvanCarroll | transgress: they say not to upgrade to hoary, I did, they didn't say it would fail to boot as of today if i ran an upgrade. | 01:41 |
| transgress | | PLEASE DON'T USE BREEZY YET -- REALLY | <-- hmm wonder why | 01:42 |
| EvanCarroll | s/hoary/breezy/ | 01:42 |
| EvanCarroll | transgress: where does that imply a faulty package as of yesterday? | 01:42 |
| transgress | wtf do you think happens in unstable? | 01:42 |
| transgress | that it remains stable all the time? | 01:42 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | any ideas? | 01:42 |
| transgress | it's common knowledge that unstable packages aren't fucking stable. | 01:42 |
| EvanCarroll | transgress: So because a distro is unstable, we should all refrain from talking about recent problems with it? | 01:42 |
| transgress | ChurcH_of_FoamY: sorry no. | 01:42 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | damn | 01:42 |
| EvanCarroll | transgress: And I'm saying that a vital package is more than unstable, it is non-functional and will prevent trouble shooting without a boot cd | 01:43 |
| transgress | there is no point in trying to support an unstable distro when it's very well known it's broken right now and nowhere near ready for use. | 01:43 |

| transgress | wow... someone needs a helmet. | 01:43 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | is it possible to remove things like konquer from kde? | 01:44 |
| transgress | for anyone unsure of what unstable means: | 01:45 |
| transgress | http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=unstable | 01:45 |
| transgress | ChurcH_of_FoamY: eh ... probably not... let me check what package that's in | 01:45 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ok cool | 01:45 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | it's not for me i like my mozilla | 01:45 |
| transgress | yeah but it uses konq for other things in kde | 01:45 |
| transgress | such as file management | 01:45 |
| transgress | so it's probably got quite a few things relying on it | 01:45 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | that sucks | 01:46 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i hate it | 01:46 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | lol | 01:46 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | it's way to slow for my taste | 01:46 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: yes you can remove konquerer from KDE just as you can remove nautilus from gnome | 01:46 |
| transgress | ChurcH_of_FoamY: yeah kdebase relies on it | 01:46 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | so i can remove it as long as what? | 01:47 |
| transgress | ChurcH_of_FoamY: no you can't... it'll remove kdebase... and kde won't really be ... functional | 01:47 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok | 01:47 |
| transgress | kind of like breezy isn't stable | 01:47 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | why are there like 400 people using ubuntu and only 82 using kubuntu? | 01:47 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | does that mean kde isen't as good? | 01:47 |
| mae | no | 01:47 |
| transgress | ChurcH_of_FoamY: no... it means more people went to the main distro | 01:48 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok | 01:48 |
| mae | it just means ubuntu is the main distro | 01:48 |
| mae | kubuntu is newer than ubuntu | 01:48 |
| mae | and also community built mainly not commercial polished like ubuntu. | 01:48 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: you will loose functionality in file management, just as if you removed nautilus from gnome, you might also bork random things, but you should always be able to reinstall it, in the event things fail | 01:48 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i tryed the kubuntu install but the commands where somehow diffrent | 01:48 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok is there a way to make mozilla the default viewer for internet as well as mail? | 01:49 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i just won't remove it i'll just change the prefrence | 01:49 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: yes, it should prompt you when you open it, or be in the prefrences screen | 01:49 |
| mae | ChurcH_of_FoamY: go to kde control panel | 01:49 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | where is the pref screen? | 01:49 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | kk | 01:49 |
| mae | then kde components | 01:49 |
| mae | web browser.. | 01:49 |
| EvanCarroll | tools->prefrences make default browser option should be in there | 01:49 |
| transgress | life according to EvanCarroll ... you can remove konq from kde even though kdebase depends on it... and that breezy should always boot. | 01:50 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | is flash player still broken? | 01:50 |
| transgress | grar. some people make my brain hurt. | 01:50 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | like no sound? | 01:50 |
| mae | um.. never had that problem | 01:50 |
| transgress | flash works fine for me | 01:50 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | hmm thats funnie it is broken for me >.< | 01:51 |
| mae | what exactly is ChurcH_of_FoamY .. | 01:51 |
| mae | ? | 01:51 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: not sure, it might still be borked, that problem wasn't addressed as of last week | 01:51 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | www.illwillpress.com will answer your question | 01:51 |
| mae | %s/funnie/funny/g | 01:51 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: you will have to update moz-firefox or use the fix on mozilla's bugzilla | 01:51 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | how do i do that? | 01:52 |
| transgress | or | 01:52 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: the fix consists of editing the XUL for mozilla in about:prefrences, and forcing the version to read 1.04 i believe | 01:52 |
| transgress | you could try removing the flash plugins and other random crap and putting them in there manually | 01:52 |

| liz4rd | EvanCarroll = fuckstick poop monkey ^_^ | 02:08 |
| EvanCarroll | mae: right and by removing it and killing it there would be no open konq, and it woulden't restart | 02:08 |
| mae | renaming konqueror (the binary) would not stop it from restarting | 02:09 |
| mae | it just wouldnt start when you typed "konqueror" | 02:09 |
| liz4rd | removing konq will destry kde completely | 02:09 |
| kalenedrael | just like removing IE will "destroy" windows completely | 02:10 |
| liz4rd | winblows | 02:10 |
| kalenedrael | why do you want to remove konq? | 02:10 |
| mae | if you dont like it, just don't use it. | 02:10 |
| mae | you still probably want to use it for file management | 02:11 |
| kalenedrael | yeahg | 02:11 |
| kalenedrael | yeah | 02:11 |
| kalenedrael | it is excellent for file management | 02:11 |
| kalenedrael | (though i still prefer command line tools) | 02:11 |
| EvanCarroll | mae: this was ChurcH_of_FoamY idea, i just don't see why it isn't possible, I thought removing konq and keeping the libs intact would be a reasonable idea, and the breakage would be minimal i plan on trying it later today | 02:11 |
| mae | it wont work | 02:12 |
| kalenedrael | ok, why do you want to remove it? | 02:12 |
| mae | its too integrated | 02:12 |

| somerville32 | I have a few questions. One, does the latest version of kubuntu have a boot screen? | 02:44 |
| EvanCarroll | somerville32: no | 02:45 |
| transgress | wow EvanCarroll you don't understand the concept of dependencies do you? | 02:46 |
| transgress | removing konq will cause kdebase to be removed... and then everything that relies on kdebase would be removed... | 02:46 |
| transgress | now correct me if i'm wrong... but running kde requires you have... kdebase right? | 02:47 |
| EvanCarroll | shoulden't no. | 02:47 |
| EvanCarroll | kdebase should be a meta package | 02:47 |
| EvanCarroll | just like ubuntudesktop | 02:47 |
| EvanCarroll | you can break it | 02:47 |
| EvanCarroll | transgress: type apt-get --purge remove konquerer, you can remove it, and break the meta packages kdebase, konq-plugins, and kubuntu-desktop | 02:49 |
| EvanCarroll | transgress: not to say things would or would not function | 02:49 |
| transgress | umm except no | 02:49 |
| transgress | i prefer to keep konq | 02:49 |
| somerville32 | How would I add a splash screen at boot? | 02:49 |

| EvanCarroll | transgress: kdelibs is essential for KDE, any programs that utilize kde functionality windowing schemes, transparenices ect should make calls to kdelibs, or gtk, however i don't know how konquerer fits into the mix, i just imagine that its involvement isn't quite as muchas some of you folks think it is | 02:52 |

| EvanCarroll | s/function/system/ | 02:56 |

| nmorse | Then you can do updates, etc. on your own schedule | 03:03 |
| kalenedrael | this was 10.0... 10.1 may be better | 03:03 |
| nmorse | Wow, I figured Konq would hold several things that could break | 03:03 |

| nmorse | It's more than a web browser, after all | 03:03 |
| nmorse | 10.0 sucked | 03:03 |
| kalenedrael | i fully agree... | 03:03 |
| nmorse | I hated it, and it locked up on my XFS system | 03:03 |
| somerville32 | 10.1 sucked too | 03:03 |
| kalenedrael | i never tried 10.1 | 03:04 |
| kalenedrael | went to fedora core 3 | 03:04 |
| nmorse | Right, good thing I ditched it | 03:04 |
| nmorse | 9 worked fine though, was just the public beta testing as community that killed it | 03:04 |
| kalenedrael | fc3 is fine, but i switched to kubuntu because i felt like trying a new distro | 03:04 |
| kalenedrael | kubuntu is great | 03:04 |
| nmorse | Kubuntu is much nicer than Fedora Core if it's anything like Red Hat 8 or 9 | 03:04 |
| kalenedrael | i can't get enough of apt-get | 03:04 |
| nmorse | Exactly why Debian still rocks | 03:04 |
| kalenedrael | fedora core is less like red hat 8 | 03:04 |
| nmorse | More like 9? | 03:05 |
| === sproingie [~chuck@64-121-15-14.c3-0.sfrn-ubr8.sfrn.ca.cable.rcn.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nmorse | Red Hat really needed to spin off Fedora | 03:05 |
| kalenedrael | er, fedora core is similar to but definitely not identical to rh8 or 9, not by a long shot | 03:05 |
| nmorse | somerville32: Looked at SuSE? | 03:05 |
| kalenedrael | you can see its roots in red hat | 03:05 |
| kalenedrael | it's a good distro | 03:05 |
| somerville32 | nmorse: Does SuSe has apt-get? | 03:05 |
| nmorse | No | 03:05 |
| kalenedrael | suse uses rpms :X | 03:06 |
| nmorse | It's an RPM-based, but very polished and nice | 03:06 |
| nmorse | And Yast2 is pretty cool | 03:06 |
| kalenedrael | rpms are fine as long as you have a package manager that can take care of the deps | 03:06 |
| EvanCarroll | somerville32: it has an rpm port of apt-get but you must install it before you modifiy the package set or it will fail to track your dependenices, and require you to unstall the changes | 03:06 |
| kalenedrael | apt-get does that very well | 03:06 |
| kalenedrael | yum, less well | 03:06 |
| nmorse | Though you'll want debian-based installer rollouts probably | 03:06 |
| nmorse | With make-kpkg making custom kernels for whole labs of identical machines easy | 03:07 |
| nmorse | So, yeah, Debian or a derivative is the way to go | 03:07 |
| EvanCarroll | the same thing can be accomplished with rpms it is just slightly harder | 03:07 |
| nmorse | Harder being bad in a school environment | 03:08 |
| nmorse | Helped our school tech out a few times | 03:08 |
| EvanCarroll | true =/ | 03:08 |
| nmorse | apt-get will save the day | 03:08 |
| somerville32 | What do you call it when you have a list of users and groups on a remote server and you can log into any terminal on the network with that account? | 03:08 |
| nmorse | Use a cron job and you can even let it update every day so you can push your packages | 03:08 |
| nmorse | Hmmm | 03:08 |
| nmorse | LDAP is what you'll want for that, and a thin client setup probably | 03:09 |
| somerville32 | Does linux allow usernames like firstname.lastname ? | 03:09 |
| kalenedrael | yes | 03:11 |
| kalenedrael | er | 03:11 |
| kalenedrael | i read that as "hostnames" | 03:11 |
| kalenedrael | some distros do | 03:11 |
| kalenedrael | i think | 03:11 |
| nmorse | They should | 03:12 |
| nmorse | If not, using a hyphen is a decent substitute | 03:12 |
| nmorse | School providing email, btw? | 03:12 |
| somerville32 | Yes | 03:13 |
| nmorse | Be sure to use clamav | 03:13 |
| nmorse | That'll make it easier to make sure they don't take viruses to any Win boxes | 03:13 |
| somerville32 | *nods* | 03:13 |
| EvanCarroll | no somerville32, the only special character you can have in a username is _ i believe | 03:13 |
| nmorse | Doing it vai webmail? | 03:13 |
| nmorse | s/vai/via/ | 03:14 |
| EvanCarroll | and aparently a hyphen | 03:14 |
| somerville32 | I'm a bit worried about even proposing linux to the district | 03:14 |
| mae | nmorse: whats the diff between s and %s | 03:14 |
| nmorse | On what? | 03:14 |
| nmorse | Don't worry, somerville32 | 03:14 |
| EvanCarroll | %s is a printf format string, to imply the variable is a string | 03:14 |
| nmorse | Just tell them about the security benefits and that they'll save money | 03:15 |
| mae | EvanCarroll: ahh. but can you omit the % in vim? | 03:15 |
| mae | cuz i use %s/blah/blah in vim usually | 03:15 |
| EvanCarroll | oh we are talking about vim | 03:15 |
| === ITSVictor [~itshare@150.101.97.229] has left #kubuntu [] | ||
| nmorse | Ah, mine was for sed and perl | 03:15 |
| EvanCarroll | no in vim % implys regex i thought that was a programming question | 03:15 |
| mae | ohh | 03:15 |
| somerville32 | nmorse: They won't save money, they already purchased windows. They would have to retrain everyone... | 03:15 |
| EvanCarroll | in perl and sed you don't need % | 03:15 |
| nmorse | Okay, that'll be interesting | 03:16 |
| nmorse | Put a trial lab out | 03:16 |
| somerville32 | *nods* | 03:16 |
| nmorse | Even our local high school has a FreeBSD mail box | 03:16 |
| EvanCarroll | ie sed -e's/foo/bar/' perl -pe's/foo/bar/' | 03:16 |
| nmorse | you forgot the -i $filename | 03:16 |
| mae | somerville32: thats the short term.. you should pitch that it should be a slow transition and in the long-run it will be mucho beneficial | 03:16 |
| EvanCarroll | for which one? | 03:16 |
| nmorse | sed | 03:16 |
| somerville32 | But wouldn't Microsoft stop donating :P | 03:16 |
| nmorse | Donating? | 03:16 |
| nmorse | They don't donate out here at least | 03:17 |
| nmorse | EvanCarroll: I don't use perl much | 03:17 |
| nmorse | I'm a Python guy | 03:17 |
| mae | they search the bottom of their black hearts and give schools a volume discount on microcruft | 03:17 |
| mae | software | 03:17 |
| nmorse | And then threaten an audit if you don't upgrade immediately | 03:18 |
| EvanCarroll | nmorse: sed doesn't require -i | 03:18 |
| mae | hhee | 03:18 |
| somerville32 | I'm worried that linux won't be suitable for the school system... | 03:18 |
| nmorse | It'll be plenty suitable | 03:18 |
| mae | nmorse: does your school have an msdn subscription? if they do they would save *tons* in the long run with linux.. retraining costs aside as a short-term cost | 03:18 |
| somerville32 | What about the software solutions they use now? Like winschool? | 03:18 |
| EvanCarroll | nmorse: well i suppose it would if you wanted case insensitve if ithat is a requirement, in perl that would be s/foo/bar/i then | 03:19 |
| nmorse | no idea, mae | 03:19 |
| nmorse | winschool? | 03:19 |
| === KevManU_ [~kevin@p5488AE80.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| mae | i think a institution has to have willing people for linux to be a success. as it improves and becomes more user friendly it will begin to swallow the entire market up when it becomes more "socially acceptable" | 03:20 |
| kalenedrael | gah, windows | 03:20 |
| mae | right now the social norm is to assume that a computer == windowsw | 03:20 |
| somerville32 | http://www.esc7.net/departments/dataprocess/winschool.html | 03:20 |
| nmorse | It like WinGage? | 03:20 |
| somerville32 | I dunno | 03:20 |
| kalenedrael | our school uses macs | 03:20 |
| nmorse | Yeah, it is | 03:20 |
| kalenedrael | i really, really, really, want access to the terminal on the OSX machines | 03:21 |
| nmorse | Macs would be the optimum solution I suppose if it had a package management system other than fink | 03:21 |
| nmorse | Why, it's bash? | 03:21 |
| kalenedrael | yes | 03:21 |
| kalenedrael | mmmm, bash | 03:21 |
| nmorse | We have too many macs here | 03:21 |
| nmorse | Though 10.1 had zsh I think | 03:21 |
| kalenedrael | i wrote "bash Is The One True Shell" all over my history final exam | 03:21 |
| nmorse | bash isn't even POSIX compliant | 03:21 |
| kalenedrael | meh | 03:22 |
| nmorse | sh baby | 03:22 |
| nmorse | sh | 03:22 |
| EvanCarroll | kalenedrael: what are your opinions about dash | 03:22 |
| kalenedrael | dunno about dash | 03:22 |
| somerville32 | Anyhow... back to my issue :P | 03:23 |
| nmorse | somerville32: I don't know about grading and enrollment software on linux | 03:23 |
| EvanCarroll | kalenedrael: seems to want to rival bash, as being smaller and faster, with most of the features and posix compliant | 03:23 |
| EvanCarroll | I prefer psh, and think bash sucks ass =/ but to every man his own | 03:24 |
| nmorse | bash works for me, but I don't do much | 03:24 |
| nmorse | For everything else, there's Python | 03:24 |
| nmorse | or Perl if you must | 03:24 |
| kalenedrael | yeah | 03:24 |
| EvanCarroll | the shell only matters if you script | 03:24 |
| nmorse | I do, but not heavily | 03:24 |
| kalenedrael | yes | 03:24 |
| kalenedrael | i like the tab completion too | 03:24 |
| nmorse | Mostly just if loops and while loops | 03:24 |
| kalenedrael | and for loops | 03:25 |
| kalenedrael | my ghetto slideshow viewer: for n in *.jpg; do display $n; done | 03:25 |
| nmorse | while loops are great for batch renaming | 03:25 |
| kalenedrael | yeah | 03:25 |
| kalenedrael | though for loops can do that too | 03:25 |
| nmorse | That works too, though I normally do a display ---option-for-vid-directory | 03:26 |
| nmorse | ImageMagick is great for so much | 03:26 |
| EvanCarroll | psh: for(<*.jgg>){system 'display $_'}; | 03:26 |
| nmorse | Combine with bash and you get 'for *.jpg in ./ do convert $n $n.tiff; ' which is handy for my family's newspaper | 03:27 |
| nmorse | More voodoo required for removing .jpg | 03:27 |
| nmorse | psh looks like it has a neat syntax | 03:28 |
| nmorse | Never tried it myself | 03:28 |
| nmorse | somerville32: any idea what you'd use for stuff like that? | 03:28 |
| nmorse | you know, enrollment or grading, or do you even need those? | 03:29 |
| kalenedrael | for n in `echo *.jpg | cut -d. -f1`; do convert $n.jpg $n.tiff; done | 03:30 |
| nmorse | Hmm, that still leaves the .jpg on | 03:32 |
| nmorse | and it won't work | 03:32 |
| nmorse | n includes .jpg | 03:32 |
| nmorse | adding .jpg to n means it looks for filename.jpg.jpg | 03:32 |
| nmorse | Tried that | 03:32 |
| nmorse | One would need sed or awk or something to replace the .jpg | 03:34 |
| nmorse | Real nasty voodoo required for that | 03:34 |

| nmorse | You sure beat me at scripting for what you need | 03:36 |
| kalenedrael | heh | 03:36 |
| EvanCarroll | nmorse: that isn't difficult | 03:37 |
| nmorse | No, I'm not a great scripter | 03:37 |
| kalenedrael | there are a bunch of editing tools that i never thought would be useful, like cut | 03:37 |
| nmorse | Not bad at my work with python, but I don't know all the little linux tools | 03:37 |
| kalenedrael | but they are useful | 03:37 |
| nmorse | I use cut for other stuff fairly often actually | 03:37 |
| nmorse | Like generating a report of users from /etc/passwd | 03:37 |
| kalenedrael | yeah | 03:37 |
| kalenedrael | if you wanted you can use sed -e 's/.jpg//g' in place of cut -d. -f1 | 03:38 |
| nmorse | That's how I figured I might have to do it | 03:39 |
| nmorse | The cut use is much smoother though | 03:39 |
| nmorse | and less perl like | 03:39 |
| nmorse | I don't like regexp | 03:40 |

| EvanCarroll | i could only conclude that none of you have read coreutils | 03:48 |
| nmorse | Can't say that I have | 03:48 |
| EvanCarroll | 'rename 's/\.jpg$//' *.jpg' is the right way to do that task | 03:48 |
| EvanCarroll | now that I have ruined it for you =/ | 03:48 |
| nmorse | I'm glad you did | 03:49 |
| EvanCarroll | lol | 03:49 |
| nmorse | Useful scripts are more important than working it out sometimes | 03:49 |
| nmorse | Hence my copy of the Python Cookbook | 03:49 |
| EvanCarroll | lol | 03:49 |
| EvanCarroll | I like perl =/ | 03:49 |
| nmorse | A lot of people seem to | 03:50 |
| nmorse | I may yet learn it, if for nothing else than easy, quick code | 03:50 |
| EvanCarroll | task would be very easy in that as well, open dir, './'; @foo = readdir dir; map { rename $_, s_\.jpg$__ } @foo; | 03:52 |
| EvanCarroll | thats without globbing which would probably make it easier | 03:53 |

| somerville32 | The problem was that it was using the bad soundcard, so I disabled it in the bio | 04:25 |
| somerville32 | *bios | 04:25 |
| somerville32 | Now, I have to compile a CD of linux games for a friend of mine's kid. | 04:25 |
| somerville32 | Any good ones? | 04:25 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: if i don't like xcfe and decide to uninstall it from apt, will all the crud on my K menu go away? | 04:25 |
| nmorse | Ah, I wish mine was able to be disabled in BIOS | 04:25 |
| sbcl3 | or do i have to uninstall all of the little packages? | 04:25 |
| nmorse | Yeah | 04:25 |
| somerville32 | I love xfce :) | 04:25 |
| nmorse | It'll go away | 04:26 |
| sbcl3 | k | 04:26 |
| nmorse | A CD of linux games, eh? | 04:26 |
| somerville32 | Yup | 04:26 |
| somerville32 | 700mb of goodness :) | 04:26 |
| somerville32 | Their whole family uses mandrake | 04:26 |
| nmorse | Well, for just fun old skool stuff, there is Pingus, SuperTux, et als. | 04:26 |
| somerville32 | They got like seven computers | 04:26 |
| nmorse | KAtomic's a fun puzzle game | 04:26 |
| somerville32 | Well, he is 10 or something like that | 04:26 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: do i want "xfce" or "xfce4"? | 04:26 |
| kalenedrael | i spent 5 hours choosing and modifying themes for xfce but ended up hating all of them | 04:26 |
| nmorse | xfce4 | 04:26 |
| crimsun | sbcl3: the latter | 04:27 |
| nmorse | pingus is like Lemmings | 04:27 |
| kalenedrael | i cannot stand a taskbar separate from the panel | 04:27 |
| nmorse | SuperTux is old skool Mario style | 04:27 |
| crimsun | ugh, I need to work on those new wallpapers | 04:27 |
| kalenedrael | tux racer! | 04:27 |
| somerville32 | Where can I get the UT demo? | 04:27 |
| nmorse | Is fun, but get an updated version | 04:27 |
| nmorse | unrealtournament.com actually | 04:27 |
| nmorse | or filefast | 04:27 |
| kalenedrael | can anyone help me configure xfce to have transparent panels and have the taskbar part of the panel | 04:28 |
| kalenedrael | ? | 04:28 |
| nmorse | Marble Blast or somesuch is popular | 04:28 |
| nmorse | Enable Composite extension | 04:28 |
| nmorse | Then use xfce4's compmgr | 04:28 |
| nmorse | No idea on the taskbar part of the panel | 04:28 |
| kalenedrael | hmm | 04:28 |
| nmorse | I liked the default look of it on top | 04:28 |
| nmorse | Reminded me of Mac Classic | 04:28 |
| kalenedrael | yeah, that is the one thing about gnome i cannot stand | 04:28 |
| === penguinboy [~penguinbo@24.159.145.55] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| kalenedrael | i have a widescreen display, and top/bottom space is not something i really want to use | 04:29 |
| kalenedrael | currently using kde | 04:29 |
| nmorse | GNOME is simply ugly, unless you theme it to look like KDE | 04:29 |
| kalenedrael | agreed | 04:29 |
| nmorse | I understand the widescreen woes | 04:29 |
| kalenedrael | yeah | 04:29 |
| sbcl3 | actually, i really wish gnome's "milk" theme was available for KDE... | 04:29 |
| kalenedrael | xfce is based on gnome, is it not? | 04:29 |
| nmorse | My lappy is widescreen and it's the devil to find wallpapers | 04:29 |
| crimsun | kalenedrael: not at all. | 04:29 |
| nmorse | GTK2, not GNOME | 04:29 |
| kalenedrael | heh, i tried modifying the "milk" theme | 04:30 |
| nmorse | Haven't seen the milk theme | 04:30 |
| kalenedrael | tried to make it look like that zion control thing from the matrix | 04:30 |
| kalenedrael | i.e. white with single-pixel grey lines | 04:30 |
| kalenedrael | (basically removed all the shadow) | 04:30 |
| kalenedrael | ended up looking ok, but i still prefer kde | 04:30 |
| nmorse | Milk does look neat though | 04:31 |
| nmorse | Just looked at it for the first time | 04:31 |
| nmorse | I'm running Plastik with Keramik White color scheme at the moment | 04:31 |
| sbcl3 | i want milk :( | 04:31 |
| sbcl3 | *"milk" | 04:31 |
| kalenedrael | plastik is very nice | 04:31 |
| kalenedrael | i wonder how to configure gtk for the apps that use it in kde | 04:32 |
| kalenedrael | like xchat | 04:32 |
| kalenedrael | i want xchat to use a different gtk theme | 04:32 |
| nmorse | To what, change its theme from KDE? | 04:32 |
| kalenedrael | it currently looks like crap :/ | 04:32 |
| kalenedrael | yes, nmorse | 04:32 |
| nmorse | apt-cache search switch | 04:32 |
| nmorse | All you need | 04:32 |
| kalenedrael | mmm | 04:32 |
| kalenedrael | thanks | 04:32 |
| EvanCarroll | kalenedrael: apt-get install kdelibs | 04:32 |
| nmorse | There'll be a gtk program there and then run switch2 to change it from anywhere | 04:32 |
| sbcl3 | /usr/share/apps/kdm/sessions/xfce4.desktop': No such file or directory | 04:33 |
| nmorse | Hmm | 04:33 |
| EvanCarroll | err gtk for the apps that use kde is impossible you would have to rewrite the whole api, to use kde apps in gnome they require kdelibs | 04:33 |
| kalenedrael | found it, it's called gtk-theme-switch | 04:33 |
| nmorse | xfce42.desktop, sbcl3 | 04:33 |
| kalenedrael | EvanCarroll, yes... i am running kde but i use some apps that use gtk nonetheless | 04:33 |
| nmorse | EvanCarroll: there's a theme called gtk-qt | 04:33 |
| sbcl3 | okay | 04:34 |
| nmorse | It rewrites GTK widgets as QT widgets | 04:34 |
| kalenedrael | for the kde apps, i will leave them be | 04:34 |
| nmorse | Try it out | 04:34 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: thanks :) | 04:34 |
| EvanCarroll | Right but apps made using kdelibs will never use gtk =/ | 04:34 |
| nmorse | not a problem | 04:34 |
| somerville32 | Ok | 04:34 |
| sbcl3 | i'll wait till krename is finished compiling though | 04:34 |
| nmorse | It could theoretically be done in reverse of gtk-qt | 04:34 |
| somerville32 | Time for Kubuntu! | 04:34 |
| somerville32 | :) | 04:34 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | nmorse do you have any troubles with things that run in kde but won't run in gnome? | 04:34 |
| === somerville32 waves | ||
| nmorse | KRename is nice | 04:34 |
| === sbcl3 goes to clean the xfce crud off his k menu | ||
| nmorse | no, ChurcH_of_FoamY, can't say that I do | 04:35 |
| === nmorse waves at somerville32 | ||
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | because i have 2 progs that won't work in gnome but will in kubuntu | 04:35 |
| nmorse | What are they? | 04:35 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and i know there the same thing | 04:35 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | teamspeak | 04:35 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: i guarentte you flash works in both | 04:35 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and....let me think | 04:35 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: how come on the k menu editor the xfce stuff doesn't show? | 04:36 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | nope it doesen't work in ubuntu for some reason it did a month ago though | 04:36 |
| nmorse | It should | 04:36 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | but then i apt-get kubuntu-desktop and now it works just fine | 04:36 |
| nmorse | Does it show in the mennu normally? | 04:36 |
| nmorse | Odd, ChurcH_of_FoamY | 04:36 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: is the version of mozilla-firefox in ubuntu 1.02? or 1.04? | 04:36 |
| nmorse | 1.02 | 04:37 |
| nmorse | Backports has 1.04 | 04:37 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | um how to tell for shure? | 04:37 |
| nmorse | and gaim 1.3.0 | 04:37 |
| EvanCarroll | right and that was the problem, your going to have to force moz to thinking it is 1.04, by setting the version in the XUL | 04:37 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh i don't have any backports i was told they break stuff | 04:37 |
| nmorse | Sometimes they do, but it's a risk I run | 04:37 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: you do have a backport, if your system is up to date you have a backport of the 1.04 security fix applied to 1.02 | 04:37 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i would if i knew more lol | 04:37 |
| somerville32 | Does kubuntu have an install floppy? | 04:37 |
| nmorse | Anyway, ChurcH_of_FoamY, go try to download a theme from firefox's get more themes link | 04:37 |
| somerville32 | I like the kde theme for Firefox :) | 04:38 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ok hold on | 04:38 |
| nmorse | That'll give you instructions to edit what you need to to get it working | 04:38 |
| nmorse | somerville32: there should be one or you can make one | 04:38 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | hi | 04:43 |
| sbcl3 | tell me; can gtk themes be used in there? | 04:43 |
| nmorse | It really feels like it, but simpler too | 04:43 |
| nmorse | Yeah | 04:43 |
| === ITSVictor == kamping_Kaiser | ||
| sbcl3 | so i can use milk :) | 04:43 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: You can't get that in Hoary, hoary is frozen, upgrading a package to a new version number is agasint the rules, you can only apply upgrades, 1.04 only has security upgrades, but they can not install the newer version, only the security patches agasint it | 04:43 |
| nmorse | Try the native ones (if they work) | 04:43 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | lol | 04:43 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok | 04:43 |
| nmorse | It'll lead you to a bugzilla entry with a detailed explanation | 04:43 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: but this is a problem, because extesnion engine will require the newest version | 04:43 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: is it possible for me to use fvwm? | 04:44 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: So your going to have to go to about:config in your url bar, and find where it says 1.0.2 and replace it with 1.0.4 | 04:44 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | then how does it get the upgrades it needs | 04:44 |
| nmorse | Probably | 04:44 |
| nmorse | The updates were backported by security team | 04:44 |
| nmorse | Don't worry about it, ChurcH_of_FoamY | 04:44 |
| nmorse | Just change the 1.0.2 to 1.0.4 and you're set | 04:45 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: what window manager does xfce use by default? | 04:45 |
| nmorse | What you're altering is general.useragent.vendorSub btw, ChurcH_of_FoamY | 04:45 |
| nmorse | xfwm, sbcl3 | 04:45 |
| sbcl3 | k | 04:45 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: you already have the upgrade, you just have to lie about the version number; like i said after a distro is frozen, it is against the rules for them to do anything but patch the frozen software, and the patch of the software can not increase it's version number, ie in 1 year you might upgrade mozilla-firefox 3 times, each because of a security vulnerability but at the end of that year youw ill still be running 1.0. | 04:46 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok thats kinda dumb but ok lol | 04:46 |
| nmorse | Correction: only stuff in main may not be upgraded | 04:46 |
| nmorse | And only on Ubuntu and Derivatives (and Debian Stable) | 04:47 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: well if the upgrade required a complete change in confs, which many do, like exim or such, than running an upgrade on a 'stable' system could break it. | 04:47 |
| nmorse | Yeah, yeah it could | 04:47 |
| nmorse | But who uses exim besides Debian anyway? | 04:47 |
| sbcl3 | is "mousepad" part of kde? | 04:47 |
| EvanCarroll | nmorse: good point. | 04:47 |
| EvanCarroll | nmorse: courier-mta++ | 04:48 |
| sbcl3 | i don't think it is, but i can't be sure | 04:48 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok i get it so really doing just the patches to an older system inshures compatability with that kernal | 04:48 |
| nmorse | I use Postfix and Dovecot | 04:48 |

| somerville32 | Does kubuntu support wheel mouses? | 04:48 |
| Llanowyn|newb | Sonic got a Super Emerald! | 04:48 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: ensures compatability with the prepatched version of the product | 04:48 |
| nmorse | Wheel mice are supported | 04:48 |
| === Llanowyn|newb is now known as Llanowyn|Sonic | ||
| nmorse | It's just the distro specific patches that kill people | 04:48 |
| nmorse | Hence Slack's popularity | 04:48 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ok | 04:48 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: when you use a non-development distro, ie 'Kubuntu -- Hoary' all configurations after the distro is frozen will be the same *forever* | 04:49 |
| sbcl3 | somerville32: it should support wheeled mouses | 04:49 |
| nmorse | Or until the next upgrade in 6 months | 04:49 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | what the hell is slack anyway? | 04:49 |
| sbcl3 | slackware? | 04:49 |
| nmorse | Slackware | 04:49 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | yea what is it? | 04:49 |
| nmorse | Oldest surviving distro | 04:49 |
| nmorse | Much more UNIX-like | 04:49 |
| sbcl3 | another linux distro that keeps a strict unix filesystem | 04:49 |
| sbcl3 | beat me :( | 04:49 |
| EvanCarroll | then it will be 'Kubuntu -- Breezy' a different version of kubuntu all together | 04:49 |
| sbcl3 | and you get a chance to do lots of edits to configuration files | 04:49 |
| nmorse | At least it doesn't go Gobo and switch everything to OS X's | 04:50 |
| nmorse | Or CRUX and use /opt for everything | 04:50 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | so is kubuntu and ubuntu not good to use? | 04:50 |
| nmorse | Dadgum degenerate anti-traditionalists | 04:50 |
| nmorse | Kubuntu is great to use | 04:50 |
| nmorse | So long as you expect that packages are only upgraded every six months | 04:51 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ok now i'm confused | 04:51 |
| nmorse | Just pointing out differences, not benefits | 04:51 |
| nmorse | All that I've mentioned are great distros that I've used (except GoboLinux) | 04:51 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | if things are frozen in certain parts of this distro then how does patching benifit the end user? | 04:51 |
| nmorse | Security patches | 04:51 |
| EvanCarroll | In six months you still won't have to change configs unless you change your running version of kubuntu, in your sources.list to reflect the newly frozen breezy | 04:51 |
| somerville32 | Does Kubuntu support network install? | 04:51 |
| nmorse | It's all there is in Firefox 1.0.4 from 1.0.2 | 04:52 |
| nmorse | Like over the internet, yeah it does | 04:52 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: it protects them from security vulnerability that have been discovered since the freezing | 04:52 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok | 04:52 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | it kiinda makes sence so it must be a difficult thing to make a fully new fersion of a prog for a frozen distro the right? | 04:53 |
| nmorse | Yeah, which is why it simply isn't done except for "unofficial" backports | 04:53 |
| nmorse | Hence the ubuntu tagged to the end of every package name | 04:53 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and is that becuase of the way linux is structured that makes it so hard? | 04:54 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | it still says 1.0.2 :( | 04:54 |
| crimsun | that's because it _is_ 1.0.2 | 04:54 |
| crimsun | it is _not_ 1.0.4 | 04:54 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: the version in help about will always say 1.0.2 when the extension reads the XUL it will be fooled into thinking it is 1.0.4 | 04:54 |
| crimsun | 1.0.4 has additional non-security bugfixes that were _not_ applied | 04:54 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh so i did change it right | 04:55 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | cool | 04:55 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | the other thing i wonder is why teamspeak wont run in Gnome but will in kde | 04:55 |
| nmorse | God, Firefox is a tech support nightname | 04:55 |
| nmorse | What's teamspeak? | 04:55 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | even thought the install is for both | 04:56 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | a voice program thats compatable with anygame | 04:56 |
| nmorse | Hmm, where do I get this? | 04:56 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | one sec | 04:56 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | http://www.goteamspeak.com/news.php | 04:57 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | there you are | 04:57 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i run a server and i can use this prog in kubuntu (thank godess) but ubuntu won't run it weard | 04:57 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | the server is hosted on a pro site | 04:57 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | but the client is what i use | 04:58 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and how hardware dependant are games in kubuntu? | 04:59 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | are they as bad as in win? | 04:59 |
| nmorse | Pretty much if you're running Doom 3 or UT2004 | 04:59 |
| nmorse | Or Neverwinter Nights | 05:00 |
| nmorse | Those are the ones I own (besides Quake 3 that isn't hardware intensive anymore) | 05:00 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ok so if a game requires a 32mb vid card it won't run and have weard side effects? | 05:00 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: does xfce come equipped with basic stuff for getting things done? for example, a web browser? | 05:00 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | if you don't have the card | 05:00 |
| EvanCarroll | sbcl3: no. | 05:00 |
| nmorse | No, you'll have to use a separate browser | 05:00 |
| EvanCarroll | sbcl3: why would it, it is a window manager, not a distribution | 05:01 |
| nmorse | Like Mozilla, Firefox, or some unpronounceable Japanese one I tried | 05:01 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i'm sorry to ask all these questions but i find that i learn better if i taslk to people | 05:01 |
| nmorse | Indeed, that's the best way to do it | 05:01 |
| somerville32 | I have a question | 05:01 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: will it see my stuff i have installed here? | 05:01 |
| nmorse | Fire away | 05:01 |
| nmorse | It should | 05:01 |
| sbcl3 | okay | 05:01 |
| somerville32 | Whats the difference between the mozillia suit and firefox and thunderbird? | 05:01 |
| nmorse | Right click and see if the menu shows up | 05:01 |
| sbcl3 | i think the suite comes with both of those | 05:02 |
| nmorse | Seamonkey (the suite) is large and includes a lot of stuff (fairly slow too) | 05:02 |
| sbcl3 | not sure though | 05:02 |
| somerville32 | I'm pretty sure it is different | 05:02 |
| nmorse | Firefox and Thunderbird are individual apps that do two of Mozilla's functions but faster | 05:02 |
| EvanCarroll | somerville32: firefox and thunderbird are seperate more developed entities, whereas mozilla is one suite that can't be further devided | 05:02 |
| nmorse | and better if you ask me | 05:02 |
| somerville32 | I think they should get rid of mozilla and focus on firefox and thunderbird | 05:02 |
| nmorse | Extensions are what did it for me for both of those | 05:02 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | so is thunderbird better than firefox? | 05:03 |
| nmorse | They're planning to for 2.0 I think | 05:03 |
| EvanCarroll | Mozilla also comes with chatzilla, and an archaic web paged editor though | 05:03 |
| somerville32 | thunderbird is a mail client | 05:03 |
| nmorse | Thunderbird is an email client, firefox a web browser | 05:03 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | yea i know | 05:03 |
| somerville32 | Firefox has a chatzilla extension | 05:03 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | but theres another mozilla too | 05:03 |
| nmorse | Nvu is the separate editor | 05:03 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: so then are apples better than oranges? | 05:03 |
| EvanCarroll | bad example | 05:03 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | it's all blue and has an m in the corner instead of a circul | 05:03 |
| nmorse | EvanCarroll: you're a hateful person aren't you? | 05:03 |
| EvanCarroll | no, do i come off as one? | 05:03 |
| somerville32 | Time for bed | 05:04 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i found it through synaptic | 05:04 |
| somerville32 | Its 0005 | 05:04 |
| nmorse | sometimes, yes you do , EvanCarroll | 05:04 |
| EvanCarroll | nmorse: I'm blaiming that on IRC =/ | 05:04 |
| nmorse | Night, somerville32 (where are you at?) | 05:05 |
| somerville32 | New Brunswick, Canada | 05:05 |
| nmorse | Hmm, it's only 10:05 here in Oklahoma, USA | 05:05 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | you have a nice night then dere eh | 05:05 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | only 200mi from canada | 05:05 |
| nmorse | Way too far in Oklahoma | 05:06 |
| nmorse | Need to get to Canda | 05:06 |
| nmorse | s/Canda/Canada/ | 05:06 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | how come there are 2 diffrent mozillas in synaptic then? | 05:06 |
| nmorse | No idea | 05:06 |
| nmorse | Let me check | 05:06 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | are the actually diffrent are just look diffrent | 05:06 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | if you want me to paste bin my repos list i can | 05:07 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | so you can see them | 05:07 |
| EvanCarroll | ChurcH_of_FoamY: what are the names | 05:07 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | they both come up as mozilla but there diffrent | 05:07 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | in firefox you ave a tiny circul in the upper right corner of the app | 05:07 |
| nmorse | Ah, Mozilla installs all the stuff besides mozilla-browser | 05:08 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | that spins when you serf | 05:08 |
| nmorse | Mozilla-browser is the mozilla suite's browser | 05:08 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and then theres mozilla thats all blue and has an m that moves | 05:08 |
| nmorse | The M is the real Mozilla | 05:08 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | oh ok | 05:08 |
| nmorse | The Circle is Firefox | 05:08 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i wasen't shure what the diff was | 05:08 |
| nmorse | Big diff actually | 05:08 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | is one better than the other? | 05:08 |
| nmorse | Firefox is better if you don't need Chatzilla | 05:08 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i knew there was a diff just not shure what there was | 05:08 |
| nmorse | And even if you do | 05:08 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i like firefox | 05:09 |
| somerville32 | Firefox is ofcourse the best :) | 05:09 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i started using it in beta | 05:09 |
| nmorse | Firefox is what you want to use for web browsing (or Konqueror which is pretty nice) | 05:09 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and dumped IE after that | 05:09 |
| nmorse | Phoenix buddy | 05:09 |
| nmorse | When it was called Phoenix | 05:09 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i don't like the konq | 05:09 |
| somerville32 | Neither do I | 05:09 |
| nmorse | I think I started on 0.6 | 05:09 |
| nmorse | for Phoenix | 05:09 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i still have mozilla phoenix on storage drive | 05:10 |
| nmorse | and then stuck with it and K-Meleon | 05:10 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i have progs going back to the 80's | 05:10 |
| nmorse | K-Meleon for the Windows days | 05:10 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i archive every program that i like | 05:10 |
| somerville32 | I think in a few years we wouldn't be able to speak because all the common combination of words will be trademarked :P | 05:10 |
| nmorse | I have Debian 2.1 on CD (and several 80s floppies of TurboPascal, Risk for Mac 5, etc.) | 05:10 |
| nmorse | and AOL 3 on floppy | 05:10 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | doesen't care about leagalitys | 05:10 |
| nmorse | My AOL screen name has no numbers | 05:11 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i havew aol 1.0 lol | 05:11 |
| somerville32 | My aol sn is stc32t :-/ | 05:11 |
| nmorse | We had AOL 1.0 but I can't find it | 05:11 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i hate aol anyway it's not "true" internet | 05:11 |
| Octane | whats the name of that 2-column file browser | 05:11 |
| nmorse | I think mine (which I shared with my siblings) is morsekids | 05:11 |
| Octane | that looks like norton commander | 05:11 |
| nmorse | krusader | 05:11 |
| Octane | YES | 05:11 |
| Octane | thank you! | 05:11 |
| somerville32 | Can you telnet and use other internet applications with AOL? | 05:11 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | it just a bunch of cached links on a server thats why it's so quick | 05:11 |
| nmorse | AOL is the devil | 05:11 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | when you ask for something thats not on there servers watch how long it takes | 05:12 |
| nmorse | I've done it before | 05:12 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | lol | 05:12 |
| nmorse | Horrible wait time | 05:12 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i know | 05:12 |
| somerville32 | Can you telnet and use other internet applications with AOL? | 05:12 |
| nmorse | Still loading on the old Apple Classic probably | 05:12 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | thats why i use broadband | 05:12 |
| nmorse | No, somerville32, the AOL internet only works in AOL | 05:12 |
| somerville32 | What... | 05:13 |
| somerville32 | No mudding? | 05:13 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | did you check out that site i gave you? | 05:13 |
| nmorse | No, it only logs on when you're using AOL | 05:13 |
| nmorse | and then it logs off when you're done | 05:13 |
| somerville32 | Have you ever tried to cancel your AOL account? | 05:13 |
| somerville32 | It is hell! | 05:13 |
| nmorse | My family always did the BYOI route | 05:13 |
| nmorse | what site, ChurcH_of_FoamY? | 05:13 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | http://www.goteamspeak.com/news.php | 05:13 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i can't get though | 05:15 |
| nmorse | There's an LCARS theme for everything including some of KDE's stuff | 05:15 |
| penguinboy | hey hey nmorse | 05:15 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | really? | 05:15 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | me wants ^_^ | 05:15 |
| penguinboy | nmorse do you have limewire installed? | 05:15 |
| nmorse | Yeah, don't remember where it is though | 05:15 |
| nmorse | No, penguinboy, I don't | 05:15 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | <---trekky ^_^ | 05:15 |
| nmorse | and I probably should go in a minute and do some work for the newspaper | 05:15 |
| nmorse | but first, Foamy's problem | 05:15 |
| nmorse | open a new tab in Firefox | 05:16 |
| nmorse | type about:config and hit enter | 05:16 |
| nmorse | under filter type general.vendor | 05:16 |
| sbcl3 | can you enable transparency on one panel but not another? | 05:16 |
| nmorse | Hit enter and then change the field that says 1 or 1.0.2 to 1.0.4 | 05:16 |
| penguinboy | if you have an rpm on your desktop...shouldn't you just be able to click on it and install it? | 05:16 |
| sbcl3 | i can't seem to do it. | 05:16 |
| nmorse | With composite you can | 05:16 |
| nmorse | RPM | 05:16 |
| nmorse | 's no worky on Debian | 05:16 |
| nmorse | Use alien to convert to Deb first | 05:17 |
| nmorse | alien package.rpm will produce package.deb | 05:17 |
| sbcl3 | nmorse: composite? isn't tha talready installed? | 05:17 |
| nmorse | It has to be enabled in xorg.conf | 05:17 |
| nmorse | It's experimental at the moment | 05:17 |
| sbcl3 | well i guess i can live without it | 05:18 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i typed that into the filter and nothing comes up >.< | 05:18 |
| nmorse | Hmm | 05:19 |
| nmorse | Try vendor | 05:19 |
| nmorse | It'll be called general.useragent.vendorSub | 05:20 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | theres 3 things in the list 1 of which is 1.0 | 05:20 |
| penguinboy | penguinboy@desktop:~$ cd /home/penguinboy/desktop/downloads | 05:20 |
| penguinboy | bash: cd: /home/penguinboy/desktop/downloads: No such file or directory | 05:20 |

| Octane | god damn kdebase-dev has lots of deps! | 05:20 |

| nmorse | Hmm, odd | 05:40 |
| nmorse | Just amarok, you say? | 05:40 |
| nmorse | Or any KDE app? | 05:40 |
| pinnedbot | Hey guys, I just upgraded to KDE but hell, nothing has changed as far as the main layout is concerned. the only notable change is the login screen, and few more programs (most of which cannot be run because i'm not logged in as the root user.. eh?) and finally, i installed the kubuntu-desktop package on hoary hedgehog. . . | 05:40 |
| Octane | yes just amarok | 05:40 |
| pinnedbot | anyone knows what's up? | 05:40 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | nmorse the linux version of firefix can't use all themes can it? | 05:43 |
| pinnedbot | nmorse, shouldn't there be some changes to the layout after installing KDE on hoary? | 05:43 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | cause theres this one theme called Red cats (green flavor) 3.0.1 that i like | 05:44 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and it won't seem to use it | 05:44 |

| sbcl3 | I'm trying to get into phpmyadmin | 05:54 |
| sbcl3 | is it possible that mysql needs a password? | 05:54 |
| penguinboy | the thing I so not undrstand about bittorent is that there is no central depository with a searchable lisitng for downloads | 05:54 |
| nmorse | Beats me, but I think it does | 05:54 |
| nmorse | Tracker sites do that penguinboy | 05:54 |
| nmorse | Though there is a decentralised bt these days | 05:55 |

| penguinboy | one more thing....how can I download bittorrent for Linux? | 06:02 |
| monchy | search in (k/s)ynaptic | 06:03 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | no | 06:04 |
| nmorse | Azureus is available from azureus.sf.net | 06:04 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i coulden't find anything there that i thought i could use | 06:04 |
| nmorse | Bittornado's ok, but doesn't work for me some of the time | 06:04 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and somehow doing a search for wiccan theme | 06:04 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i cam acrost a irc chat log that has what i said verbatim | 06:05 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | and it kinda pisses me off | 06:05 |
| nmorse | Fun, eh? | 06:05 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | becuase when i say stuff i don't expect to find it pasted on the fucking inet | 06:05 |
| nmorse | Look at my Jabber logs sometime, they're hilarious | 06:05 |
| nmorse | That's what a public room is for, buddy | 06:06 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i bet i just am surprised that it can be done lol | 06:06 |
| nmorse | Ever read Freenode's terms of service? | 06:06 |

| nmorse | hit the random link sometimes | 06:07 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i'm not mad just terribly surprised | 06:07 |
| penguinboy | how do you run bittorrent after dowenload? | 06:07 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | diden't know that such a thing could be done | 06:07 |
| penguinboy | so you just search at a trackign site and bittorrent just does its job? | 06:09 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | someone named jeff waugh pasted it | 06:09 |
| sbcl3 | i'm wondering; for mod_perl in apache2 where do i point the perl script to? | 06:09 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | back when i was really new | 06:09 |
| sbcl3 | is it still /usr/bin/perl? | 06:09 |
| nmorse | No idea | 06:10 |
| nmorse | monchy: Jabber is an XML stream based IM service including Multi-User Chat | 06:10 |
| nmorse | Open Source servers available no less | 06:10 |
| penguinboy | night guys | 06:11 |
| nmorse | Check out jabber.org, monchy | 06:11 |
| monchy | k | 06:11 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | do people do it by themselves or do they do it automaticly? | 06:11 |
| monchy | it's better than just using the msn/aim services etc? | 06:11 |
| Octane | anyone here use guarddog and NFS? | 06:11 |
| Octane | if so, what did you check to make it work | 06:12 |
| Octane | because I checked off Network File System, and that doesnt seem to do it | 06:12 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | whats a kicker panel? | 06:12 |
| nmorse | I like it better than AIM/MSN | 06:13 |
| nmorse | It has no spambots, etc. | 06:13 |
| monchy | k last question lol, what about all my contacts ;p | 06:13 |
| nmorse | The fairly decentralised network is slightly harder to do that on | 06:13 |
| nmorse | Make them switch to Jabber | 06:13 |

| crimsun | douglas: no, that would be 000 | 07:09 |
| Arrow | Oh right fstab ..slapps head...meant that | 07:09 |
| douglas | so if I make it 000, anyone can read and write to it? | 07:09 |
| crimsun | douglas: theoretically. Granted, most filesystems have additional checks. | 07:10 |
| douglas | well it's vfat? | 07:11 |
| crimsun | it's a VERY bad idea to allow all users write and execute access to some file. | 07:11 |
| douglas | my dad uses windows and he put a hard drive in my linux server for now until he can build a windows one for himself. I want to allow him through samba to write to and read from that hard drive. | 07:12 |
| crimsun | it's silly to give mount the vfat partitions with umask=000 | 07:14 |
| crimsun | a much better plan is to grant his user write and execute access to the directories he needs | 07:14 |
| crimsun | i.e., add his user to the appropriate non-system groups | 07:14 |
| douglas | I know, but it's on a home network, it's temporary, and I just want to know how if I need to again? | 07:15 |
| crimsun | I don't understand the latter portion of your question, because it's phrased awkwardly. | 07:15 |
| douglas | sorry. | 07:15 |
| douglas | oh, I'm saying, if I need to do these sort of permissions again, then I would like to learn now! | 07:16 |
| crimsun | well, to what sort of things is his user going to need write and execute access? | 07:17 |
| crimsun | mmkay. | 07:19 |
| === Arrow thinks that written order in sources.list so when he installs kdevelop it will come from the cd and not in 2-3 hrs from the ftp...:) | ||
| Arrow | wtitten order precidence... | 07:21 |
| Arrow | sound right? | 07:21 |
| crimsun | no, precedence is not based on order in /etc/apt/sources.list | 07:21 |
| crimsun | to pin priorities based on repository source, you need to read man 5 apt_preferences | 07:22 |

| Sabin | sweet | 11:15 |
| Tm_T | hmm, you should add some repos though | 11:15 |
| Tm_T | I mean, I advise to add ;) | 11:16 |
| Tm_T | you can use this as an example: http://www.kapsi.fi/~tm_travolta/temp/sources.list-temp | 11:16 |
| Sabin | I read the ubuntu wiki thuroughly because I really don't know what I'm doing | 11:16 |

| mart | Ghetek: like what? | 06:23 |
| Ghetek | i dunno, little things that gaim does right. i think gnome beats out knome on best IM app | 06:23 |
| Ghetek | like kopete has trouble reconnecting | 06:23 |
| Ghetek | somtimes it drops sent messages and stuff | 06:23 |
| airox | No problems over here. | 06:24 |
| Ghetek | and there is no log, so if it crashes (so far its crashed 5 times) i dont know what was said | 06:24 |
| mendred | talking about kopete | 06:24 |
| mart | Ghetek: use the history plugin | 06:24 |
| Ghetek | history? | 06:24 |
| mendred | is translucency broken? | 06:24 |
| airox | mendred: Translucent windows ? | 06:24 |
| mendred | after i updated to kde 3.4.1 | 06:24 |
| mendred | yes | 06:25 |
| mart | Ghetek: Settings->Configure Plugins | 06:25 |
| airox | mendred: It is provided with the X.org module called composite afaik. | 06:25 |
| airox | The module is experimental also afaik. | 06:25 |
| mart | Ghetek: personally I find kopete much better than gaim, it seems to deal with multiplie accounts for yourself and for other people much better | 06:25 |
| mendred | see | 06:26 |
| mendred | i have no problems with konsole | 06:26 |

| uniq | slackman: add breezy sources to /etc/apt/sources.list (clone your existing lines and change 'hoary' to 'breezy' and make them use different mirrors) make the file /etc/apt/preferences and put three lines in it: 'Package: *' \n 'Pin: origin breezy.mirror.archive.ubuntu.com' \n 'Pin-Priority: 200' - save and exit and run: sudo apt-get update;apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-1-powerpc initrd-tools=0.1.78ubuntu1 | 09:20 |

| _skaag | I'm in Kubuntu but the resolution is horribly low (640x480) | 10:23 |
| _skaag | However I can't seem to be able to go any higher | 10:23 |
| _skaag | I checked /etc/X11/xorg.conf and it contains many more resolution settings but they are not used | 10:23 |
| _skaag | is there something special I should do? | 10:23 |
| sabin | control center- periphrials- display | 10:24 |
| sabin | thats what I did | 10:24 |
| _skaag | it only shows 640x480 | 10:24 |
| _skaag | nothing else on the list of resolutions | 10:25 |
| _skaag | the res is so low it's driving me crazy :-) | 10:25 |
| _skaag | But all else is absolutely beautiful | 10:25 |
| sabin | icons must be HUGE | 10:25 |
| _skaag | yes they are | 10:25 |
| sabin | I wish I could help | 10:26 |
| _skaag | but it somehow detected the situation and fonts are sized so that it would be comfortable and yet display a lot of text | 10:26 |
| _skaag | it's not THAT bad | 10:26 |
| sabin | thats cool | 10:26 |
| _skaag | this is my graphics device: Intel Corp. 82865G Integrated Graphics Device | 10:27 |
