| nmorse | Hmm, those sempron Micro-ATX boxes do look awfully nice if not quite as small | 12:05 |
| buz | McScruff: ive been using ksensors | 12:06 |
| buz | works ok | 12:06 |
| buz | you need better coooling with semprons | 12:06 |
| buz | if you want something silent, it's harder | 12:06 |
| nmorse | Yeah, and the micro-ATX is like 13x14x5 for the cases usually | 12:06 |
| buz | as for mini itx cases, generally there's space for ONE harddisk | 12:06 |
| buz | is that cm or inch | 12:06 |
| nmorse | I was really hoping to build something smaller | 12:06 |

| nmorse | Cheap and P4 don't mix well | 12:07 |
| buz | i feel the same :) | 12:07 |
| nmorse | and they're hot sunofaguns | 12:07 |
| buz | well celery is quite cheap | 12:07 |
| buz | but still a hot plate | 12:07 |
| nmorse | Yeah, my main concern besides price is reliability | 12:08 |
| McScruff | has anyone used any bsd? | 12:08 |
| buz | freebsd | 12:08 |
| buz | rock solid os | 12:08 |
| nmorse | I run FreeBSD for a server OS | 12:08 |
| McScruff | whats that like? | 12:08 |
| nmorse | really is rock solid | 12:08 |
| nmorse | You compile stuff a lot | 12:08 |

| nmorse | Some things like erlang and ejabberd don't even come as packages | 12:09 |
| buz | in theory most stuff is there for the desktop tho | 12:09 |
| buz | you use erlang? | 12:09 |
| nmorse | I know people who run it as a desktop | 12:09 |
| buz | i didnt think anyone outside ericsson used that beast | 12:09 |
| nmorse | erlang is pretty dadgum neat, but it's mostly there for ejabberd's sake | 12:09 |
| buz | it's a mighty language | 12:09 |
| buz | but fucking weird | 12:10 |
| nmorse | Makes for easily scalable stuff and the ability to update running apps is nice | 12:10 |
| buz | yeah its kinda like java on steroids | 12:10 |
| McScruff | i would love mezzo to come to ubuntu | 12:10 |
| nmorse | I wouldn't | 12:10 |
| buz | mezzo? | 12:10 |
| nmorse | Dadgum perl everywhere | 12:10 |
| buz | yikes perl | 12:10 |
| McScruff | the symthony os thing | 12:10 |
| buz | perl is EVIL | 12:10 |
| nmorse | I want customization, not having to recode everything | 12:11 |
| buz | only use i have for perl is spamassassin | 12:11 |
| === _osh slaps buz around with a large piece of perl code. | ||
| nmorse | It's great for regexp, so I hear, but as I don't do regexp much I don't have to tolerate it | 12:11 |
| buz | OUCH THAT HURT | 12:11 |
| _osh | buz: Perl is a great tool for some things. Don't knock it. :-) | 12:11 |
| buz | nearly every other script language can do the same regex | 12:11 |
| buz | sure it is | 12:12 |
| buz | but it is an ugly programming language none theless | 12:12 |
| buz | still beats bash though | 12:12 |
| nmorse | I use bash and Python for most of my scripting needs | 12:12 |
| buz | i consider it to be a better batch language | 12:12 |
| buz | python is nice | 12:13 |
| buz | but i miss the static types (from all scripting languages) | 12:13 |
| buz | and something like eclipse, ofcourse ;) | 12:14 |
| _osh | I use python most of the time now too but perl still has its uses, when doing small/simple scripts for example. I don't do python for that. | 12:14 |
| buz | if it wasn't so heavyweight i'd use java | 12:14 |
| buz | but these days i rarely ever code anyhow | 12:14 |
| nmorse | Yeah, python does tend to be pretty verbose for simple, quick, and sometimes dirty scripts | 12:15 |
| buz | and if, it's mostly hacking some php apps to do what i want them to | 12:15 |
| buz | php is a giant mess, too | 12:15 |
| nmorse | I'm really not jumping full into coding until next month when I start college | 12:15 |
| nmorse | Mostly I just play around right now | 12:15 |
| buz | better do it now | 12:15 |
| buz | helps A Lot | 12:15 |
| nmorse | Write apps I need for the network stuff here, PHP scripts for sites, etc. | 12:15 |
| buz | then again I still think computer sciences destroys the joys of computing | 12:16 |
| buz | lots of ugly crap | 12:16 |
| buz | little of real life value | 12:16 |
| nmorse | I suspect I'll learn quite a bit of real life value in my program, mostly because senior year teaches you the practical network admin stuff | 12:17 |
| buz | most of the practical stuff you can't teach | 12:17 |
| buz | you can only learn it | 12:17 |
| nmorse | Like what? | 12:17 |

| opi | buz: maybe it's Windows server, you know, it's freezed ;) | 12:28 |

| ecadre | have a look at the Control Panel in KDE | 01:02 |

| McScruff | i know :) | 01:02 |
| McScruff | its a firefox extension | 01:02 |
| ecadre | that's blue curve | 01:02 |
| red22 | nono, i have the same kde theme installed in fc4 as i do in kubuntu and that is not the answer.. | 01:02 |
| McScruff | its a firefox theme | 01:03 |
| McScruff | i will get the name | 01:03 |
| ecadre | no, not the KDE theme, it's what fc (Red Hat) have done to change Firefox | 01:03 |

| ecadre | actually, McScruff, you're right, there probably is a theme you could get | 01:04 |
| red22 | yeah, that too. openoffice in fc4 looks kde too | 01:04 |
| ecadre | heh, don't tell anyone at Gnome | 01:05 |
| McScruff | Plastik style from KDE with Crystal SVG icons for Firefox. | 01:05 |
| ecadre | tbh I prefer to use Konqueror anyway | 01:06 |

| McScruff | then get it... | 01:12 |
| red22 | well if you gotta go, ty for help. if curious, i'll brb. | 01:12 |

| ecadre | and there's no package on the Kubuntu repositories | 01:12 |
| ecadre | are you? | 01:12 |
| McScruff | i got it from their website :) | 01:12 |
| ecadre | very curious indeed...... | 01:12 |
| McScruff | has an installer | 01:12 |
| ecadre | yeah, but I try not to do that too much | 01:13 |
| ecadre | it can muck up a dist upgrade | 01:13 |
| red22 | so firefox is natively written (if that makes sense) with the gnome libraries / for gnome? (gtk is it?) | 01:14 |
| McScruff | no | 01:14 |
| McScruff | i dont think so | 01:14 |

| thoreauputic | fix for firefox: type about:config in the URL bar, search for vendorSub , edit the string to 1.0.4 and you will be able to install themes and extensions | 01:16 |
| McScruff | nice tip | 01:16 |
| thoreauputic | just be sure you have the latest security fixes in place from ubuntu first | 01:17 |
| red22 | hm, you do need to install firefox from the mozilla website. the page for themes says ubuntu shipped with a messed up something or the other.. | 01:17 |
| red22 | ah, now u tell me heh ty | 01:17 |
| thoreauputic | red22: see above, and no, you don't need to | 01:17 |
| red22 | yeah i just saw ty | 01:18 |
| McScruff | i still have the ubuntu one on system , and put this one in a new dir | 01:18 |
| thoreauputic | OK :) | 01:18 |
| red22 | thoreauputic: string not found.. i searched for "vendorSub" | 01:20 |
| red22 | "app.version" maybe? | 01:20 |
| McScruff | im off to bed, i hope that is your problem, im sure it is :) | 01:20 |
| thoreauputic | general.user.agent.vendorSub | 01:20 |
| thoreauputic | sorry, no . between user and agent | 01:21 |
| red22 | lol i see it there, but i'm wondering why the search failed.... | 01:21 |
| thoreauputic | hmm... well just change the string to 1.0.4 and you should be OK | 01:22 |
| red22 | done. works. ty. | 01:23 |
| red22 | now installing theme to see if it looks kde'ish now | 01:23 |
| ecadre | yep, it worked, in the end. | 01:23 |
| ecadre | still won't be using Firefox though (if possible) | 01:23 |

| thoreauputic | no worries :) | 01:25 |
| red22 | no no. that's not the fix. it is still looking like a gnome app with a couple different icons | 01:25 |
| ecadre | well, it's still probably Red Hat and their Blue Curve stuff you're thinking of | 01:26 |
| red22 | thoreauputic: you know how fc4 has a firefox that looks like a native kde app? how can u make kubuntu have that too? kubuntu's firefox is for gnome.. | 01:26 |
| red22 | ecadre: i use the same theme in fc4 than in kubuntu. the kde apps look the same in fc4 than here, but not firefox.. | 01:27 |
| thoreauputic | I don't know, really: maybe because of fc4 using BlueCurve or something? | 01:28 |
| red22 | but isn't bluecurve just another regular kde theme? | 01:29 |
| ecadre | fc4 doesn't look like KDE anyway, it looks like fc4 | 01:29 |
| ecadre | but a regular KDE theme will not touch firefox | 01:29 |
| red22 | or is bluecurve some gtk-qt abstraction layer? | 01:29 |
| thoreauputic | I think ubuntu's firefox uses a package for gnome compliance with firefox - can't remember the name of it off the top of my head | 01:29 |
| ecadre | it was Red Hats attempt to make Gnome and KDE both look like........ Red Hat | 01:30 |
| red22 | ecadre: kde under fc4 looks just like kde on kubuntu on my machine i don't know what you mean.. | 01:30 |

| thoreauputic | ecadre: indeed - I seem to recall a couple of Red Hat KDE devs resigned over bluecurve | 01:31 |
| red22 | which reminds me.. does kubuntu have some tool for controlling all your machines running services / daemons? | 01:32 |

| ecadre | thoreaputic - that article claims that bum is in the Ubuntu repositories, however, I can't find it | 02:01 |
| red22 | ah i get it now... if i impose a macroscopic wave function on my cat, then i will destroy it's superposition... easy. | 02:02 |
| ecadre | nah, Shroedinger was just tking the piss | 02:03 |
| thoreauputic | ecadre: ah - i just used the deb from the website - it won't break anything | 02:03 |
| thoreauputic | sudo dpkg -i to install it | 02:03 |
| ecadre | yeah, that was what I was about to do, but the mention of the repository made me look | 02:03 |
| red22 | i'm also interested in a good sources.list file. there's a lot of things not found by the default. | 02:03 |
| phantombrainm | i just understand 30-40% of the article. My english ist to bad for that difficult stuff | 02:03 |

| red22 | dutch, glad to help, np | 02:06 |
| ecadre | woops, I clicked on the download and it opened up in Kate......... | 02:06 |
| thoreauputic | ychahibi: bum should install without dependencies: you shouldn't force an install if there are deps (obviously it wouldn't work anyway) | 02:06 |
| red22 | phantom: what is german for cat? :) | 02:06 |
| phantombrainm | katze | 02:07 |

| phantombrainm | in german its not easier than in english...*g* | 02:09 |
| red22 | isn't that funny? the wikipedia translations of the same entry even include different pictures | 02:09 |
| ychahibi | thoreauputic: When using urpmi for example, urpmi bum* automatically looks for missing packages, with Kubuntu, I have to do dpkg -i then look for missing packages, then do apt-get install <missingpacks> then dpkg -i | 02:09 |
| phantombrainm | yeah, thats funny | 02:09 |
| red22 | yeah, the german one is a lot harder. but i don't speak german :) | 02:09 |
| red22 | well, other than "katze" now. | 02:10 |
| thoreauputic | ychahibi: the urpmi trick only works for stuff that urpmi knows about (ie that's in the urpmi data base) - same with apt | 02:10 |
| phantombrainm | i dont get it. Is the Katze dead or alive ?!? | 02:11 |
| thoreauputic | ychahibi: best is to do an apt-cache search first - usually what you want is there in one of the repos | 02:11 |
| ychahibi | thoreauputic: not it isn't the case, urpmi looks for missing packages even if it's not presentin its repositories, anyway I don't want to troll ... | 02:12 |
| phantombrainm | Katzensuperpositionen | 02:13 |
| thoreauputic | *shrug* - as I said , the order in which you do it is the key: look for what you want in the repositories, enable univers and multiverse... urpmi isn't magic - it has to have somewhere to look too | 02:14 |
| red22 | hehe | 02:14 |
| phantombrainm | how did you find that article? | 02:15 |
| ecadre | bum bum bum bum bum bum :-) | 02:15 |
| red22 | if you install firefox with the installer (mozilla.org download) will you be able to uninstall it with synaptic or any other easy uninstall tool? | 02:16 |
| ecadre | you can stick firefox into a single directory | 02:16 |
| phantombrainm | on wikipedia.fr (france) is another picture of the cat ;) | 02:17 |
| thoreauputic | red22: the package system won't know about an install from the installer, basically, so no, sysnaptic / apt won't see it at all | 02:17 |
| ecadre | they probably killed the original one | 02:18 |
| ychahibi | thoreauputic: I have a bad english, let me explain : Bum isn't present in the repositories, I downloaded it from its website, to install it I did :sudo dpkg -i bum* dpkg told there were missing dependencies ( gnome-perl ... ) , I did apt-get install <missingpacks>, then dpkg -i bum* to install bum, I thought apt-get install bum* would have resolved problems, but it hadn't | 02:18 |
| ecadre | only deb files can be tracked | 02:18 |
| ecadre | ^original cat | 02:18 |
| phantombrainm | if i install something by hand i can see it in synaptic | 02:18 |
| phantombrainm | if you convert *.rpm with alien to .deb you also see them when theyre installed | 02:19 |
| ecadre | i like BUM, thanks thoreauputic | 02:19 |
| ecadre | 'cos it's now a deb | 02:19 |
| thoreauputic | phantombrainm: yes, because you made a .deb | 02:19 |
| ecadre | ^.deb | 02:20 |
| red22 | phantom, if you install "by hand" how? | 02:20 |
| ecadre | even more thanks to the guy who wrote it | 02:20 |
| phantombrainm | with dpkg | 02:20 |
| ecadre | then you're using the same system as apt-get uses | 02:20 |
| ecadre | apt | 02:21 |
| phantombrainm | dpkg -i *.deb | 02:21 |
| phantombrainm | or convert a *.rpm with alien | 02:21 |
| ecadre | aptitude package manager | 02:21 |
| phantombrainm | if you cant find a .deb | 02:21 |
| ecadre | uses dpkg | 02:22 |
| red22 | can i see what files a package has? i'm curious where the default firefox installs all its files.. | 02:22 |
| thoreauputic | red22: dpkg -L firefox | 02:22 |
| red22 | like rpm's query function... apt or dpkg have that | 02:22 |
| red22 | ah ty | 02:22 |
| phantombrainm | never used the -L switch. Interesting | 02:23 |
| thoreauputic | oops, dpkg -L mozilla-firefox | 02:23 |
| ecadre | if you use the installer from firefox then everything is put into one directory | 02:23 |

| godsmoke | you can just update your system via apt | 02:25 |
| Borg^Queen | ok butt? | 02:25 |
| Borg^Queen | ok | 02:25 |
| Borg^Queen | So use the current disc as the install then just do a distro update? | 02:25 |

| Borg^Queen | ooh thanks thoreauputic | 02:44 |
| ecadre | here's a question | 02:44 |
| Borg^Queen | godsmoke: a typo is a word misspelled or misused | 02:45 |
| ecadre | I was looking at the Canonical website earlier | 02:45 |
| Borg^Queen | canabal? | 02:45 |
| godsmoke | but that's not what this was | 02:45 |
| godsmoke | this was a grammatical error | 02:45 |
| ecadre | does Canonical have any developers based in South Africa? | 02:45 |
| godsmoke | a REAL word, related to the correct word | 02:45 |
| godsmoke | used incorrectly | 02:45 |
| godsmoke | far from a typo | 02:45 |
| Borg^Queen | hence a typo so thereee | 02:45 |
| ecadre | oi, shurrup :-P | 02:45 |
| ecadre | * ducks* | 02:46 |
| Borg^Queen | LOL | 02:46 |
| Borg^Queen | Its doesn't matter, he's a man and there for wrong by genetics | 02:46 |
| Borg^Queen | :D | 02:46 |
| godsmoke | oh boy | 02:46 |
| ecadre | "there fore" | 02:46 |
| godsmoke | want me to correct that sentence too?? | 02:46 |
| Borg^Queen | LOL therefore | 02:46 |
| ecadre | you've got me at it now/??!! | 02:46 |
| Borg^Queen | LOL | 02:46 |
| godsmoke | "by genetics" is very wrong | 02:46 |
| godsmoke | "by nature" -- "due to genetics" | 02:47 |
| godsmoke | take your pick | 02:47 |
| monchy | this is great | 02:47 |
| Borg^Queen | godsmoke: did it everr accur to u that I'm puling your chain? | 02:47 |
| === monchy gets popcorn | ||
| ecadre | anyway........... about Canonical | 02:47 |
| godsmoke | Borg^Queen: no, but I'd suspect you to use it as an excuse for grammatical errors | 02:47 |
| ecadre | la, la, la, la, la | 02:47 |
| Borg^Queen | I'm sorry ecadre I'm finished. God on. | 02:47 |
| ecadre | not listening | 02:47 |
| Borg^Queen | Go I mean lol | 02:47 |
| ecadre | :-) | 02:47 |
| Borg^Queen | godsmoke: you' re too easy | 02:48 |
| thoreauputic | godsmoke: I suggest you try #ubuntu-de or #ubuntu-pt and see how well you manage there: it might have escaped your attention that not everyone in this channel has English as first language, and that a world exists outside North America | 02:48 |
| godsmoke | thank you | 02:48 |
| Borg^Queen | Anyway, thanks again. BBL | 02:48 |
| godsmoke | that's what I tell all the ladies | 02:48 |
| ecadre | I was just wondering about Canonical, and whether they have any developers in South Africa | 02:48 |
| Borg^Queen | thoreauputic: good point. | 02:48 |
| godsmoke | thoreauputic: no -- that's the point -- this is an english-speaking channel -- if I were in #ubuntu-de -- I would be expected to articulate myself in german | 02:49 |
| Borg^Queen | I speak 5 languages. It can become confusing | 02:49 |
| godsmoke | and that's why I don't go there | 02:49 |
| godsmoke | I respect other languages | 02:49 |
| godsmoke | and wouldn't attempt to butcher them | 02:49 |
| godsmoke | I expect the same here | 02:49 |
| Borg^Queen | godsmoke: you will find that the Germans are very patient with those trying to learn German | 02:49 |
| ecadre | their website only mentions europe, south america and somewherwe else, nothing about Africa | 02:49 |
| godsmoke | Borg^Queen: I'm german :) | 02:49 |
| Borg^Queen | You're an oddity | 02:49 |
| godsmoke | that's what the manager of the psych facility told me | 02:50 |
| godsmoke | before I was released | 02:50 |
| ecadre | * gone to sulk * | 02:50 |
| ecadre | :-( | 02:50 |
| Borg^Queen | What is Canonical anyway | 02:50 |
| ecadre | brb | 02:50 |
| monchy | lol | 02:50 |
| godsmoke | Borg^Queen: the company that supports Ubuntu | 02:50 |
| Borg^Queen | No no no, I'm sorry ecadre I'll shut up now. | 02:50 |
| Borg^Queen | Ah | 02:50 |
| Borg^Queen | I thought it was based in SA | 02:51 |
| godsmoke | nope | 02:51 |
| ecadre | back, just getting a drink | 02:51 |
| godsmoke | The Isle of Man | 02:51 |
| ecadre | yeah, that was the impression that I had as well | 02:51 |
| Borg^Queen | Hmm | 02:51 |
| ecadre | ISM is where it's registered as a company | 02:52 |
| godsmoke | right | 02:52 |
| godsmoke | hence "based" | 02:52 |
| ecadre | doesn't mean it's based ther | 02:52 |
| ecadre | ^there | 02:52 |
| godsmoke | well -- it's really just a rough collection of people | 02:52 |
| Borg^Queen | What is? | 02:52 |
| godsmoke | but, if it were to be based anywhere -- it's that | 02:52 |
| godsmoke | Canonical | 02:52 |
| Borg^Queen | ah | 02:52 |
| godsmoke | btw -- ecadre: "Canonical is a global organisation headquartered in the Isle of Man, with employees throughout Europe, North America, South America and Australia." | 02:52 |
| Borg^Queen | Nice work for a rough collection of people. | 02:53 |
| godsmoke | Borg^Queen: Ubuntu is the work of many people | 02:53 |
| Borg^Queen | I know | 02:53 |
| godsmoke | not Canonical alone by any means | 02:53 |
| ecadre | yeas, that's what I read | 02:53 |
| godsmoke | plenty of communty effort | 02:53 |
| Borg^Queen | I know | 02:53 |
| gdh | Do Canonical employ anyone specifically for Kubuntu? | 02:53 |
| godsmoke | I don't think Kubuntu is Canonical supported at all | 02:53 |
| gdh | Or is it just riddell, amu and friends doing their best in spare time? | 02:54 |
| godsmoke | I think it was a community-led effort, which Ubuntu has adopted packages from | 02:54 |
| ecadre | I found it a bit odd because of Mark Shuttleworth's continuing heavy involvement with promoting open source in SA | 02:54 |
| Borg^Queen | KU isn't a UB official project | 02:54 |
| godsmoke | an* | 02:54 |
| ecadre | and his avowed aim for promoting indeginous industry in Africa | 02:54 |
| Borg^Queen | explain | 02:54 |
| thoreauputic | godsmoke: I'm surprised to see you ended a sentence with a preposition: tutu tut | 02:55 |
| ecadre | ^indigenous | 02:55 |
| Borg^Queen | OUCH | 02:55 |
| red22 | alright it's been interesting. ty. goodnight. | 02:55 |
| === thoreauputic gives godsmoke a black mark on pedantry | ||

| ecadre | according to the Kubuntu website it is an official Ubuntu project | 02:55 |
| gdh | Just not funded or available on Ship-It :) | 02:56 |
| godsmoke | thoreauputic: it's loose, not incorrect | 02:56 |
| Borg^Queen | OH it is? | 02:56 |
| Borg^Queen | I could swear I read it wasn't a UB project | 02:56 |
| thoreauputic | godsmoke: "this is the sort of English up with which I will not put!" - Winston Churchill | 02:56 |
| thoreauputic | ;) | 02:56 |
| ecadre | It's a discussion point, not a criticism, since I know very little about the setup of Canonical | 02:57 |
| Borg^Queen | ecadre: you're a trouble maker | 02:57 |
| ecadre | but I was under the impression that it had more of an involvement in SA | 02:57 |
| Borg^Queen | JK | 02:57 |

| Borg^Queen | godsmoke: I know that. That wasn't my question. | 03:01 |
| Borg^Queen | thank you gdh | 03:01 |

| godsmoke | I mean ... hydration is so hard to keep track of | 03:11 |
| godsmoke | after you're halfway through the bike -- you're barely conscious of stuff around you | 03:11 |
| ecadre | no, probably not, I was just replying to gdh | 03:11 |

| petya | there is no and chars in qt applications | 12:21 |
| petya | it just types sqares instead of them, otherwise, it's normal | 12:22 |
| froud | nikkia: OK thanks | 12:22 |
| KaiL | nikkia: the version number in that package is quite bad selected - that will be seen as "newer than 1.0 final"... | 12:22 |
| petya | if i copy and paste the text to a gtk application it's normal again | 12:22 |

| Poromies | maddwarf: id be keen to know more about them also, coz im having bit of trouble with mine also :) | 02:16 |

| mart | twidget: sounds like the 'guided partitioning' | 05:53 |
| twidget | I found out what they are: boot, swap and / | 05:54 |
| mart | twidget: it's supposed to be helpful, but for that size of disk you might as well use 1 or 2 | 05:54 |
| mart | unless it's a server | 05:54 |
| mart | actually, that seems fairly sensible, now I think about it | 05:55 |
| twidget | Nah, I'm just coming from 20 years of Windows and it bothered me not knowing why it did it | 05:55 |
| mart | twidget: don't worry about it | 05:55 |
| mart | ah, 246G. I misread | 05:56 |
| mart | hmm, 1kb are you sure? | 05:56 |
| twidget | That's what it says | 05:57 |
| mart | df -h ? | 05:57 |
| twidget | You're talking Greek to me! :) | 05:57 |
| mart | type it in konsole :) | 05:58 |
| twidget | I'm guessing that's a terminal command | 05:58 |
| mart | select the output, then just a middle click in your irc input | 05:59 |
| twidget | Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on | 06:00 |
| twidget | /dev/sda1 227G 1.7G 214G 1% / | 06:00 |

| gdh | hda is your CD ROM drive ... a boot CD in the drive? | 06:01 |
| gdh | sda1 is your hard disk - I guess it's Serial-ATA ? | 06:02 |
| twidget | no | 06:02 |
| twidget | and yes | 06:02 |
| mart | :) | 06:02 |
| mart | ok, sorry, as root try: | 06:03 |
| mart | echo p | fdisk /dev/sda | 06:03 |
| mart | is more useful output | 06:03 |
| mart | twidget: ? | 06:04 |
| twidget | I've removed the CD. All that was on it was my bookmarks file. | 06:05 |
| twidget | and it is set to boot prior to my HD | 06:05 |
| twidget | FD, CD, HD in that order | 06:05 |
| mart | ok, but you've booted from your HD right? | 06:06 |
| twidget | yes | 06:06 |
| mart | cool, what does the command above show? | 06:06 |
| twidget | oh... hang on | 06:06 |
| twidget | unable to open | 06:07 |
| mart | as root | 06:07 |
| twidget | with the CD back in | 06:08 |
| mart | CD doesn't matter | 06:08 |
| twidget | oh | 06:08 |
| twidget | then, what do you mean? | 06:08 |
| mart | you need to be root to read the partition table, so type 'su' then your root password | 06:08 |
| mart | argh | 06:08 |
| mart | not explaining very well | 06:08 |
| mart | su is a command | 06:08 |
| twidget | system user, I'd guess | 06:09 |
| mart | 'super-user'? I've never thought about it | 06:09 |
| mart | so your shell prompt should end in # rather than $ | 06:09 |
| twidget | authentication failure | 06:10 |
| mart | ok, you need to type the root password you gave when you installed | 06:10 |
| mart | not your user password | 06:10 |
| twidget | sudo | 06:10 |
| twidget | ? | 06:10 |
| mart | er, which did you type? | 06:11 |
| twidget | I thought I did | 06:11 |
| mart | try 'su' with your root password | 06:11 |
| twidget | not working | 06:12 |
| mart | (if you use 'sudo' you will need your user password, but I don't know if that will be set up for you) | 06:12 |
| gdh | kubuntu has no root password by default | 06:12 |
| gdh | sudo will be set up | 06:12 |
| twidget | ah | 06:12 |
| mart | gdh: ok, that's changed since I installed :) | 06:13 |
| gdh | =) | 06:13 |
| twidget | so, what then do I do? | 06:13 |
| mart | try 'sudo -s' | 06:13 |
| mart | then your password | 06:13 |
| twidget | The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 30401. | 06:14 |
| twidget | There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, | 06:14 |
| twidget | and could in certain setups cause problems with: | 06:14 |
| mart | ignore that | 06:14 |
| twidget | 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) | 06:14 |
| twidget | 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs | 06:14 |

| twidget | Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes | 06:15 |
| mart | I don't see a 1kb partition :) | 06:15 |
| mart | I think that's probably just free space that it didn't allocate | 06:16 |
| twidget | it's just a data CD | 06:16 |
| mart | this is your hard disk we're looking at | 06:16 |
| twidget | oh | 06:16 |
| mart | you were asking why it had partitioned it like it had? | 06:16 |
| twidget | Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System | 06:16 |
| twidget | /dev/sda1 * 1 30028 241199878+ 83 Linux | 06:16 |

| twidget | /dev/sda5 30029 30401 2996091 82 Linux swap / Solaris | 06:16 |
| mart | so that's really just two partitions (PC partition tables are crazy) | 06:17 |
| mart | one primary, with all your data in /dev/sda1 | 06:17 |
| gdh | twidget: your '500M' tmpfs from above is just a RAM-disk | 06:18 |
| gdh | the '227G /dev' doesn't actually exist - great, eh? :) | 06:18 |
| === twidget boggles | ||
| mart | twidget: it's not worth worrying about | 06:20 |
| gdh | heh, was just going to say that | 06:20 |
| twidget | I know... | 06:20 |
| mart | try looking in your system menu, for "KInfoCenter" | 06:20 |

| js_ | SysFail: not here | 06:23 |

| twidget | This is so cool! | 06:24 |

| Principe_azzurro | now :) | 07:37 |
| buz | did you try xdvi? | 07:37 |
| mart | I was wondering whether it was a bug | 07:37 |
| buz | shouldnt be | 07:37 |
| mart | xdvi works fine | 07:37 |
| buz | i had it choke on one dvi tho | 07:37 |
| twidget | Couldn't find it | 07:37 |
| buz | xdvi could read that one | 07:37 |
| mart | now it's *every* dvi | 07:37 |
| buz | so maybe there's some sort of bug | 07:37 |
| twidget | Konsole, that is | 07:37 |
| buz | but in general, it works for me | 07:37 |
| mart | hmm, just wondered if it was a problem with the way I'm making the dvis | 07:38 |

| mart | buz: ah, I reckon it must be a bug. it can't even open the latex documentation | 07:39 |
| buz | mhh | 07:40 |
| buz | it worked for my own latex stuff | 07:40 |
| buz | but there truly might be a bug, lyx sometimes randomly crashed, too | 07:40 |
| mart | yeah, but past tense isn't working for me right now :( | 07:40 |
| buz | i've gone back to use OOo because of it | 07:40 |
| buz | also makes it easier for other to collaborate | 07:40 |
| mart | yeah, I'm not sure my thesis is do-able in oo.o | 07:41 |
| buz | depends | 07:41 |
| buz | once you figure it out, its formula editor is quite powerful | 07:41 |
| buz | not quite like latex, but not bad at all | 07:42 |
| mart | buz: er, yeah. but the theorem prover generates latex, so ... | 07:42 |
| buz | it's easily good enough for my graduate macroeconomics stuff | 07:42 |
| buz | well in that case you probably should be using latex ;) | 07:42 |
| buz | can you give me the path to one of the dvis that wont open? | 07:43 |
| buz | one that ships with it i mean :) | 07:43 |

| mart | buz: what version are you on? | 07:45 |
| buz | mhhh kubuntu 5.04 with the kde 3.4.1 repositories | 07:46 |

| mart | principe_azzurro: there are READMEs in /etc/{rcS.d,init.d} | 07:56 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i got most of it | 08:24 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | but it says only root can mount the drive | 08:24 |
| gdh | indeed.. you need to add the 'user' option in fstab, most likely | 08:24 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | the error that pops up when i try to mount it is | 08:24 |
| gdh | or some 'uid=1000' | 08:24 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | how? | 08:24 |
| gdh | well, tell me how you're trying to mount the partition | 08:24 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | kk | 08:25 |
| gdh | and I'll try to tell you where you're going wrong | 08:25 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | /dev/hdb1 /INSTALLS ntfs rw,unmask222 0 0 | 08:25 |
| gdh | Ah OK two problems. | 08:26 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | kk | 08:26 |
| gdh | 1) you can't write to ntfs partitions reliably. | 08:26 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i know | 08:26 |
| gdh | so change the 'rw' to 'ro'.. | 08:27 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i am gonna take everything off of it and reformat it for linux then plop everything back on | 08:27 |
| gdh | your 'unmask222'.. you probably mean umask=222 ? | 08:27 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | getting the same error though | 08:28 |
| gdh | just stick on the same comma | 08:28 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | that only root can mout the drive | 08:28 |
| nmorse | did you try the user option? | 08:28 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | yea | 08:59 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i cant see any files in konq | 08:59 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | or access them | 08:59 |
| mart | ok, I think there was some weird bug with specifying the user and ntfs | 08:59 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | damn >.< | 08:59 |
| mart | ChurcH_of_FoamY: but no fear! | 09:00 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | kk | 09:00 |
| nmorse | Why do you need to mount it as user anyway? | 09:00 |
| mart | nmorse: no, I didn't mean that | 09:00 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i don't know thats what i was told to do | 09:00 |
| mart | sorry | 09:00 |
| mart | I mean | 09:00 |
| mart | with specifying the uid | 09:00 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | i was told to | 09:00 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | so i did | 09:01 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | is that wrong? | 09:01 |
| gdh | that was me :) | 09:01 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | lol | 09:01 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ^_^ yea him lol | 09:01 |
| gdh | maybe I was thinking about smbfs or something | 09:01 |
| mart | user=shane is wrong | 09:01 |
| gdh | indeed it is. | 09:01 |
| mart | it should be just user if your going to use it | 09:01 |
| mart | you're even | 09:01 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | so get rid of the other stuff exept user in that part? | 09:02 |
| mart | /dev/hdb1 /INSTALLS ntfs ro,umask=222,uid=1000,user 0 0 | 09:02 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ok that looks like what i have now | 09:02 |
| gdh | [19:28] <gdh> so you 'll end up with ro,umask=222,uid=1000,user | 09:02 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | /dev/hdb1 /INSTALLS ntfs ro,umask=222,uid=1000,user 0 0 | 09:02 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | that looks like what i have | 09:03 |
| mart | yeah | 09:03 |

| mart | there used to be a thing with ntfs, I don't know whether it's still the case | 09:21 |
| nikkia | umask's are easy | 09:21 |
| mart | but the umasks had to be inverted | 09:21 |
| mart | right now, we have 622 | 09:22 |
| mart | the one before is 222 | 09:22 |
| nikkia | mart, they have to be inverted because its a MASK | 09:22 |
| nikkia | mart, what do you want? | 09:22 |
| mart | nikkia: no | 09:22 |
| mart | inverted to what they're supposed to be | 09:22 |
| mart | it really did your head | 09:22 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | ?? O_O | 09:22 |
| kinfo | No match for "O_O" | 09:22 |

| twidget | I find no package including the expression 'repos' using Knaptic | 09:32 |
| twidget | or whatever it's called | 09:32 |
| twidget | Kynaptic | 09:33 |
