nmorseDoes anyone know why lineakd isn't included in Kubuntu by default anyway?12:03
uniqmost people don't need it.12:04
uniqyou can setup most keyboards in the control center.12:04
nmorseNot my Microsoft Media Keyboard, unfortunately12:04
nmorseMicrosoft's Hardware Division is the best part of the company12:04
nmorseExcept the Mac division maybe12:04
mrmaniciaw nmorse 12:04
mrmanicmicrosoft makes pretty nice hardware, IMO12:04
hussamhow do I queue downlaods in wget?12:05
nmorseAnd why is lineakd in universe, but not klineakconfig?12:05
nmorselineakd is a pain to configure by hand, but klineakconfig makes life way better12:05
uniqnmorse: doesn't it work if you select one of the other microsoft keyboard models? 12:06
nmorseNope12:06
nmorseSome of the keys won't even work being mapped by hand12:06
nmorsePain in the dadgum rear12:06
nmorseBut a great keyboard12:06

Borg^QueenHi people. I noticed that kde 3.4.1 is available for kubuntu. I was wondering it if could be used for Debian Sarge as well?12:17

Tm_TBorg^Queen: interesting question12:19
Borg^Queeno_012:19
Borg^QueenDoes that translate to = You're the new gueina-pig12:19
Tm_Tno12:20
hussamBorg^Queen: I doubt it because kdebase 3.4.1 on kubuntu depends on python2.4 and debian is still on python 2.3, right?12:20
Borg^Queenlet me check12:20
Tm_TBorg^Queen: wanna try most recent KDE?12:20
Borg^QueenWhich is?12:20
nmorsewell, the new release of lineakd fixed the bug that has nagged me for too long12:21
Tm_Ttrunk SVN & comlie it yourself12:21
nmorseAll three File Management Keys (My Docs, Pictures, Music) give one key id12:21
Tm_Tpile12:21
nmorseMy Documents is now the only button treated as real by lineakd and works flawlessy12:21
Borg^QueenNope it wouldn't work.12:26
Borg^QueenIts compiled against xorg right12:26
Borg^QueenSarge uses Xfree12:26
hussamBorg^Queen: when exactly will debian switch to xorg?12:28
Borg^QueenNext release no doubt12:28
Borg^QueenIn other words, in 3 years unless it does a major update sometimes before (which is very possible)12:29
nmorseI seriously doubt Debian will take 3 years for another release12:30
Borg^QueenFrom your kb to God's computer12:30
nmorseI bet they'll try to release in a year and half12:30
nmorseThough switching to Xorg will require an Xorg SPARC and ARM release12:31
nmorseIf I'm correct, Xorg is only on x86 and PPC right now (I may not be correct)12:31
hussamnmorse: indeed, there a too many advnaces in the linux world happening for debian to wait another 3 years.12:31
Borg^Queentrue12:31
Borg^Queenat the rate of evolution, yearly releases and/or major upgrades will be needed.12:32
Borg^QueenRecent reports put gnu-linux in advance of M$ by 2.5 years12:32
nmorseI'd really like yearly debian releases though a year and a half isn't that long12:32
Borg^Queen1 year ahead of OS X12:32
nmorseDoubt it will be in anything but technical features12:33
Borg^QueenBetter than eye candy and fluf updates12:33
nmorseEye Candy can actually be useful12:33
Borg^QueenIf the app is useful yes.12:33
nmorseTry evince(?) on e1712:33
Borg^Queenevince?12:33
Borg^QueenWhat is that12:33
nmorsePhoto management becomes easier when the app itself is transparent12:34
nmorseI think that's the name of the photo app on e1712:34
Tm_Teye candy? who needs eye candy when we have irssi! ;--P12:34
Borg^QueenI use digikam, works great12:34
nmorseI'm actually using irssi right now12:34
Borg^Queeneye candy? We don't need no stinking eye candy12:34

HiFi_dkhi... how can i set my GTK fonts in kubuntu12:35
nmorseI think I was actually talking about evas12:35
Borg^QueenDo you have gtk-qt-engine installed?12:35
HiFi_dknope, will try that12:36
nmorseI think it's funny that the GNOME guys don't have the reverse of that yet12:36
nmorseThen again, QT apps must look darned pretty compared to most GNOME apps12:36
nmorseXFCE4 is the only GTK2 environment with eye candy really12:37
Borg^QueenI life KDE but I never knock gnome12:37
nmorseI only knock it on ugliness12:37
Tm_TKDE <312:37
Borg^Queenxfce4, really12:37
HiFi_dkBorg^Queen: what should that package be called ?12:38
Borg^Queenpardon?12:38
nmorsegtk2-engines-gtk-qt I think12:38
Borg^QueenAye, something like that12:38
Borg^Queenone sec12:38
Borg^QueenAye, that's what is says12:39
nmorsethen he'll want switch2 so he can change the theme from any WM12:39
nmorsegtk-theme-switch is the package for that12:39
HiFi_dkBorg^Queen: hmm, can't find that with apt-cache ..?12:39
nmorseIs universe enabled?12:39
Borg^Queen`search under gtk-12:40
Borg^Queenswtich2 has a lot of bugs12:40
HiFi_dknmorse: would like the switch yes, but it doesn't seem to be in apt ...?12:40
Borg^Queencompile them yourself12:40
nmorseYeah you have to enable the universe repository12:40
nmorseNo compiling necessary12:40
nmorseAre you using synaptic or apt via the command line?12:41
HiFi_dkBorg^Queen: there are a lot of the other gtk engines, maybe i'm missing something in sources.list ?12:41
nmorseYeah, in sources.list12:41
HiFi_dknmorse: trying to use apt12:41
Borg^QueenI'm on a RH9 machine now, backing stuff up. Sorry12:41
nmorseAppend universe to the end of the lines you need12:41
Borg^QueenIf you have synaptic, use it to make a search12:42
HiFi_dknmorse: could you paste the line(s) i need ?12:42
nmorseHang on12:42
Borg^Queendo a search rather12:42
nmorseI'll paste in #flood12:42
HiFi_dkBorg^Queen: have the ksynaptic... but seems strange, no tree-update function ?12:42
Borg^Queenksynaptic isn't very good12:42
Borg^QueenUse synaptic to do the search12:42
Borg^QueenI have to say this is a nice community12:43
Tm_Tuse apt-cache to do the search12:43
nmorseIt really is a lot of the time12:43
Borg^QueenIf only kubuntu has a root account like Debian.12:43
Borg^QueenI find too many things are missing12:43
nmorsesudo passwd root12:43
Borg^QueenAye I know but it doesn't always work12:43
nmorseWhat?12:43
Borg^QueenIt is, however, a wonderful piece of work12:44
HiFi_dknmorse: are you pasting ?12:44
Borg^QueenI can't get the sudo thing to work all the time12:44
Borg^QueenMaybe I'm doing it wrong or messing something up.12:44
nmorseHiFi_dk: hang on, just do this: the top two lines starting with 'deb' just need to have the word universe attached to them12:44
nmorseAnd maybe the hoary-updates line12:44
nmorseThough if you want a sources.list file that includes Java and the Kubuntu updates I'd be happy to paste mine in #flood12:45
HiFi_dknmorse: think I got it, just needed to uncomment the lines... well well :)12:45

Borg^Queensproingie: I do06:42
Borg^QueenDon't listen to sproingie! He's a heritic!06:43
Borg^QueenI cast thee down!06:43
Borg^QueenCan you tell I'm a "NixVangelist"?06:43
sproingiethere should be a wizard that starts when you first install, that guides you through creating a schedule to back up /home and /etc06:44
Borg^QueenI agree06:44
sproingieasks you what kind of data you're using, how often you want to do it, etc06:44
Borg^Queenbut I just use krusader to compress and test and k3b to burn do dvdr06:44
sproingiefor example, i'm fine with rotating through about 5 dvd/rw's for that data06:45
Borg^QueenOh wait there is a tool like that06:45
Borg^QueenIt's called Konserve06:45
sproingieit should start with a new install06:45
Borg^QueenInstalls are hard enough on newbies06:45
sproingieso is data loss06:45
sproingiethere should be a "things to do with your new install" folder then06:45
sproingieas you run each one, have it go away06:46
sproingieNT server has something like this, basically a checklist for setting up AD and such06:46
Borg^Queenhmm06:46
sproingiei mean, what does a new install do now when you start up a browser?  sends you to a more or less static page that congratulates you for installing, points to the community, and now you're all done06:47
sproingieand you're probably not.  there's always postinstall tasks06:47
Borg^QueenYou have many good points06:48
=== sproingie is trying konserve right now
Borg^Queenok06:48
sproingiethe wizard is a little spartan.  asking me for a source URL to back up06:49
=== sproingie hms, just running konserve won't cut it, since it really has to schedule the jobs as root
sproingiei suppose each user could have a separate backup schedule, but that's pretty awful06:50
Borg^QueenIt's a start06:50
sproingieindeed06:50
sproingieideally, it'd be a control panel item06:51
Borg^QueenCan you code? If so, maybe its something you can do06:52
sproingieer jeez, konserve is just a file to file backup06:52
Borg^QueenDoesn't it compress? Have you checked out the options?06:52
sproingiesure, but i'm talking about something that can handle backup volume labels and catalogs and stuff06:52
sproingieso when time comes to back up, it gives you an alert that says "insert CD labeled `backup 3' and click ok"06:53
sproingieand when you want to restore a file, you can browse the indexes of the backup volumes06:53
Borg^QueenCreate one06:53
sproingieyeah, sounds like a fun little project06:53
sproingiei don't even have to deal with the backup mechanics themselves i imagine06:54
Borg^Queenlet me know when you get it done. I'll test it on all the machines here06:54
sproingieit's just a UI thing for the most part06:54
sproingiebasically just need a simple wizard for creating backup profiles on an industrial strength backup app06:55
sproingieand a simple alerter interface to prompt the user to insert the media when backup is ready06:56
AyreonBy backing up files, do you mean manually put stuff on cds/dvds? or do you mean theres a program or something that does it.  jw.  Because im on XP right now06:58
Borg^QueenI have always prefered to do it all manually. There's nothing like a human brain to do it.06:58

AyreonIs there an option that will allow me to have two OS's? like keep XP and have the option to go on either one.  Just in case my transition doesnt go well at first07:01
sproingiemy brain is fine at some things ... remembering regular tasks ain't one07:01
sproingieAyreon: yes, you can dual-boot.  probably most of us do07:02
sproingiei'm not sure that the ubuntu installer can resize the partitions tho.  i used qt_parted off the system rescue cd to do it07:02
aseigoBorg^Queen: woah.. you're here!07:04
AyreonOk, so when it boots up theres something that says Duel-boot?07:04
aseigoBorg^Queen: have you moved to kubuntu?07:04
sproingieAyreon: when you install, you install grub (the GRand Unified Bootloader), which gives you a menu that allows you to boot linux or windows07:05
sproingiething is, you need to install linux on a partition that XP isn't on, and i think you need a partition resizer for that first07:05
sproingiei don't know if ubuntu's installer can resize the partitions.  i usually use the expert install, which is pretty different than the usual one07:06

activelowBorg^Queen: I think there's a quirk/bug in kppp on kubuntu.  I ran kppp as root from a console, on connect it tries to set the default route but get's a "no such interface error" since it tries right after the connect but before ppp0 has been brought up08:34
Borg^Queenok sorry I was away a min08:34
activelowSo as root it still didnt set the default route08:35
Borg^QueenA cdrw can be written to about 1000 times assuming it wasn't damaged during a write08:35

activelowall I need to do now is switch from a i386 kernel to i686, but I'm chicken.  I dont want to break anything08:38
Borg^QueenYou can't really08:38
Borg^QueenUse synaptic to install it08:38
activelowI barely had the guts to installed KDE 3.4.1 upgrade :)08:39
activelowmy konquorer still crashes, but less now... Hope that gets fixed08:39

Borg^Queenactivelow: do you have any bookmarks the lead to web urls visible on the tool bar for konq?08:40
=== daryl is now known as darylp
activelowwhat toolbar is that?  The small side one with icons?08:41
Borg^QueenNope at the top don't you see any?08:41
activelowit's crasing in filebrower mode, not web08:41
activelowI only have the buttons and location toolbar08:42
Borg^QueenI know but sometimes if you have a bookmark on the toolbar that leads to an odd url, it crashes konq while shutting it down or opening a new tab08:42
Borg^QueenBeen my experience anyway08:42
Borg^Queenah ok08:42
activelowI see.. It's crashing on me when I'm just viewing directories with files08:43
activelowmuch less with 3.4.1 though08:43
Borg^Queenhmm odd08:43
activelowkde/Kubuntu on the whole has been VERY stable.  Like I said only if sleep/hibernate would work everything would be perfect.08:45
activelowI've went through 10 howtos on that and still nothing, although the last one said to install a i686 kernel..08:46
Borg^QueenCheck in at different times and ask if there's a fix08:46
activelowI will thankx08:46

Brydenn[WU] what is it by default12:14
nikkiaBrydenn[WU] : there is no root password12:14
Tm_Tsudo passwd root12:14
Brydenn[WU] then how do i make one12:14
nikkia[k] ubuntu uses sudo by default12:14
_peternikkia: thanks.  was that a noob *nix question, or should i have looked it up somewhere ?12:15
nikkiathere's really very very little need to set a root password12:15
nikkia_peter, it was noob-ish, but not really a noob question :)12:15
Brydenn[WU] why is there little need to set a root pass?12:15
Tm_Tnikkia: yeah, only old farts like me need that root account12:15
nikkia_peter, libc is *the C runtime*, thus the location for the headers is the default C include directory, /usr/include12:15
_peternikkia: is there a way for me to "look up" the install location of packages ?12:15
nikkiatm_t, i don't bother, and i'm an old fart, being using unix systems for 20 years12:16
nikkia_peter, apt-file can do it, in theory, i haven't had apt-file work for ages tho12:16
Tm_Tnikkia: uh, "old farts _like me_ " then ;p12:16
Brydenn[WU] so uh nikkia  why is there little need for me to set a root password?12:16
nikkiatm_t, i haven't yet found anything that needs a full root account over sudo -s12:16
nikkiaBrydenn[WU] : because you can do one-off commands with sudo, or get a root shell with sudo -s or sudo -i12:17
Brydenn[WU] in english please hehe i'm a n00b12:17
Brydenn[WU] hahaha12:17
nikkiathe ONLY reason to set a root password is to enable *some* programs that aren't packaged [properly]  that rely on a root password existing12:17
Tm_Tnikkia: old habit etc :p12:17
_petertm_t: I just learned about this.  ubuntu disabled root ON PURPOSE.  The way you access 'root' authority is via sudo.  Only the first account created on install (the one you named) has sudo access by default.   sudo can be added to other accounts later.12:18
nikkiatm_t, its a habit i got out of on OS X, which also uses the ''*' for root password, use sudo you damned fool' paradigm :)12:18
Tm_Thaha12:18
_petertm_t: the sudo password is the current login's  passwd.12:18
nikkiatm_t, the first couple of times i installed OSX i'd enable root12:18
Brydenn[WU] well i just clicked on KGpg (encryption tool) and it asked for the r00t password12:18
Tm_T_peter: oh I know12:18
nikkiaafter that, i got bored of doing it, and just 'learn to use sudo you damned fool'-ed12:19
Brydenn[WU] hhmm nevermind12:19
Brydenn[WU] hehe12:19
Brydenn[WU] i'm gonna play a bit more :)12:19
nikkiaTm_T: i also grew up on VMS systems where it was common to configure SYSTEM to not use a password per se12:21
nikkiaTm_T: in most cases, if you were an authorised system admin, you'd get assigned a second user password which would be used for the equivalent of sudo12:21
_peterAll    right.  I'm trying to install (read: build) VMWare Tools... it needs the kernel source header files... which package would that be ?12:21

nikkia_peter, you might be able to get away with installing 'linux-headers' which is a virtual package12:29

Tm_Tthere was some talk about taking servers down12:32
_peternikkia: ok, linux-headers* installed... where is it ?  Where can I lookup the install location of a package ?12:33
nikkia_peter, install apt-file, and read the man page for it12:33
ztonzyTm_T: aha12:33
ztonzyTm_T: so that's why X-chat didnt logon auto12:33

=== ztonzy got UT2004 today...installing it ;)
nikkia_peter, you shouldn't really need to know where linux-headers is, to be honest12:34
nikkiait gets linked to from /lib/modules/${KERNEL_VERSION}/ and is automatically used when you compile kernel modules12:34
_peterAh, but VMWare tools installer is looking for it .  btw: I can't find apt-file package in Kynaptic12:36
nikkia_peter, vmware should find it automatically, it does for me12:36
_peterPlus I'm a developer and generally I wish to know where stufff like this is being installed.12:36
nikkia_peter, you aren't likely to need the linux headers yourself, unless you're writing kernel modules12:37
=== Tm_T is going wild!
nikkiaand then, you're likely to know where they are if you know enough to write kernel modules :)12:37

ToddMAThe quickest of questions... Is there any configuration "location" which specifies the distribution as being either Ubuntu or Kubuntu?01:23
Tm_TKubuntu = Ubuntu01:24
Tm_Tthey are mostly the same01:24
nikkiatodd, they're mostly identical except for the virtual packages 'ubuntu-desktop' and 'kubuntu-desktop'01:24
nikkiabut you can have both installed01:24
Tm_Tyup01:24
ToddMAAgreed.... that is the rub...01:24
Tm_Tso I think it's better to talk Ubuntu unless it's really needed to specify K01:24
ToddMAtrying to bug fix enhancements.... where people want the grub menu to show Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu01:24
nikkiatodd, you could check for one of the two -desktop packages, and assume that dist based on just one of them01:25
nikkiaand if both are present, prompt01:25
Tm_T:p01:25
ToddMAthe update-grub script hardcodes Ubuntu....but don't know how to get it to differentiate.01:25
nikkiatodd, as i said, the only thing i can think of, is checking for the presence of kubuntu-desktop01:26
nikkiaor, perhaps better01:26
nikkiachecking for the non-presence of ubuntu-desktop01:26
ToddMAYeah - that's the only thing I came up with so far.01:26
Tm_Tyyyaight01:26
nikkiathat way, a joint ubuntu/kubuntu system will show as ubuntu, which is probably better01:26
ToddMAThat is not a bad idea....01:27
Tm_TI think it should show as Ubuntu all the time ;)01:27
nikkiatm_t, i can understand some people not wanting it to01:27

Tm_Tnikkia: no shit :p01:28
ToddMAso if exists /usr/share/doc/kubuntu-desktop and not exists /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-desktop then Title=Kubuntu01:28
Tm_Tnikkia: there's couple power user who are so mad about that and some other things they even consider to switch away from (K)Ubuntu01:28

_qos"wipe -kq /dev/sda" is that right?02:10

_qosso?02:11
=== nikkia suddenly spots a flaw in the 'secure erase a drive' concept
nikkiaits going to do nothing if any of your blocks containing 'bits' of sensitive data are marked as bad02:11
nikkiathey'll happily be sitting way out of the disk controller's way when you're doing your secure erase, and thus not even remotely erased02:12
_qosthats not an harddrive which contains such sensitve information, i simply want to erase it, to prevent the next owner of using norton undelete or other programs like that.02:13
nikkiaah, the wipe man page specifically mentions the bad block issue02:13
nikkiawow, the author needs a tinfoil hat :P02:14
nikkiahe theorises that drive manufacturers in cahoots with the government secretely copy 'interesting data' to the bad block area so that the government can see your plans even if you erase the drive :)02:15
_qosso, what can you offer? ;)02:15
nikkiaqos, if its not that sensitive, just wipe the partitions, then repartition02:16
nikkiathe partition sizes aren't going to be worth anything anyway, so i wouldn't worry about wiping the entire disk surface - and it can cause problems, some drives store the geometry in an area close to the partition table, and wiping the entire disk surface could make the disk unusable02:16

_judithI thought we now have firefox 1.0.4...al I get from apt-get is 1.0.205:31
nikkiayou can either modify the config to report 1.0.4 (since FF's website won't let you ANYWHERE near the extensions with 1.0.2)...05:31
nikkiaor you can get the 1.0.4 from backports05:32
nikkiait doesn't really make any difference either way, except that the one in backports may or may not be able to print05:32
nikkia(it suggests 'xprint' but that's unavailable)05:32
ToddMAand changing the version string on the 1.0.2 is easy05:32

uniqelmago: in english please? 09:10

uniqhttp://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/38 is a good example.09:11

uniqif you want to change to other servers i can suggest de.archive.ubuntu.com if you're in germany.09:13
froudHello Kubuntu users. We are looking for people who would like to contribute to development of Kubuntu Documentation. Previews of the documents currently under development can be seen at nightly update to http://lnix.net/~froud/ Anyone interested in contributing can join #ubuntu-doc to discuss ideas09:13
elmagoyes iam09:13
uniqelmago: also se.archive.ubuntu.com is fast.09:13
elmagoi thought of some debian servers not only ubuntu09:14

buzi'd advise against debian servers09:15
buzthey are bound to incur wreak havoc upon your system sooner rather than later09:16
buzso stay away from them unless you REALLY know what you're doing there09:16
elmagook thx09:17
uniqi agree with buz on that.09:17
=== JensK [~JensK@p54903607.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu
buzon top of that, i'd also stay away from breezy for much the same reasons09:18
elmagocould it be that there are some packeges on the normal debian servers, that are not on the ubuntu servers09:18
jeramyThere shouldn't be.  Maybe some non-free stuff like the Marillat repository...09:21
jeramySpeaking of which, I tried to install avidemux yesterday, and it won't install.  :(09:22
elmagosorry for that question but iam a real noob in linux: how do i install a tar.gz archive? 09:23

amywilsonok I can't find the link where I had the procedure stored for ubuntu 10:36
ToddMAthere are a couple of options.  One is listed on ubuntuguide.org and the wiki has info too..10:37
amywilsonok10:37
nikkiahmmmm, umbrello has suddenly forgotten what C++ is on me10:38
ToddMAhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java15 10:38
ToddMAUmbrello is kind of flaky like that huh?10:39
amywilsonthank u10:39
ToddMAnikkia thanks for the thunderstorm10:39
mrmanicnikkia: umbrello made an executive decision.  C++: old and busted.  Python: new hotness10:39
ToddMAsounds like a reasonable choice for me...10:40
nikkiamrmanic, i like python, but no way is it the right choice for a millisecond sensitive multimedia app10:40
ToddMAUmbrello went up in flames with me when I mentioned Java10:41
nikkiatodd, we're still getting thunder & lightning here, btw10:41
mrmanicnikkia: I agree :)10:41
nikkiamrmanic, if there was a Qt/KDE binding, i'd use Ada, but there's not10:41
ToddMAWell Nikkia, it spread to Boston - cooled things down very nicely10:41
nikkiawell, there is, but its not very good, and its not in the repositories :)10:41
