| supernix | here is the line /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs umask=0222 0 0 | 01:54 |

| jeanluc | chris you know a lot about kubuntu? | 04:15 |
| chris12349 | well I used slackware for a couple years and switched right when hoary came out so not a ton | 04:16 |
| jeanluc | lol this is my first linux distro | 04:16 |
| jeanluc | and I just installed it today | 04:16 |
| chris12349 | I set up a friend last month. He switch from Windows and there have been a few difficult areas but he really enjoys it. I hope you stick with it | 04:17 |
| jeanluc | ya I'm going to stick with it | 04:17 |
| jeanluc | only use windows for gaming | 04:17 |
| chris12349 | yep I dual boot for the same reason | 04:18 |
| jeanluc | I heard its not worth the time to try to get games to work in linux | 04:18 |
| jeanluc | so I made a 10 gig partition for windows | 04:18 |
| chris12349 | I've tried cedega and it works pretty well for a few games: world of warcraft was the latest I tried and it ran great | 04:18 |
| jeanluc | don't you have to pay for that? | 04:18 |
| chris12349 | yeah I just wanted to try it out.... Pretty cool game but it really requires that you hook yourself up to an IV and play for hours on end to get anywhere | 04:19 |
| chris12349 | I can't / dont want to spend quite that much time playing a video game | 04:19 |
| jeanluc | no cedega | 04:20 |
| chris12349 | oh | 04:20 |
| chris12349 | yeah its 5 dollars a month, I though I would support them - its a pretty cool project I look forward to when I don't have to dual boot | 04:20 |
| chris12349 | cool.... I got my burner to work ;) | 04:21 |
| jeanluc | nice | 04:21 |
| chris12349 | apparently it doesnt run DVD- kinda wierd I'll have to check into that | 04:21 |
| chris12349 | so this is your first linux distro? | 04:22 |
| jeanluc | ya | 04:24 |
| chris12349 | have you tried out gnome yet? | 04:24 |
| jeanluc | I've used it at my friends house | 04:24 |

| jeanluc | hmm | 04:25 |
| jeanluc | I installed | 04:25 |
| jeanluc | tuxracer | 04:25 |
| jeanluc | where can I find it | 04:25 |
| jeanluc | ? | 04:25 |
| jeanluc | ?? kubuntu | 04:26 |
| kinfo | No match for "kubuntu" | 04:26 |
| othernoob | probably in the menu | 04:26 |
| chris12349 | are you familiar with the konsole? | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | negative | 04:26 |
| chris12349 | :) you'll have to learn | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | I just copied and pasted | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | what people told me to | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | :p | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | I know basic cmds | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | like ls | 04:26 |
| chris12349 | heh ok, did you ever run dos | 04:26 |
| chris12349 | oh ok | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | and su | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | and all the dos cmds | 04:26 |
| chris12349 | well if you open the console and type "tuxracer" that should do it | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | ping, telnet, ect | 04:26 |
| jeanluc | ok | 04:26 |
| othernoob | jeanluc: you won't need su in kubuntu | 04:26 |
| chris12349 | you probably wont be spending a lot of time with that game ;) | 04:27 |
| sproingie | dont need the console for that | 04:27 |
| othernoob | chris12349: people spent years with minesweeper ;) | 04:28 |
| chris12349 | hehe | 04:28 |
| sproingie | alt-f2. or alt-r if you set up kde to be like windows | 04:28 |
| sproingie | er win-r that is | 04:28 |
| chris12349 | oops thats right | 04:28 |
| sproingie | or "run command" from the k menu | 04:28 |
| chris12349 | although I would suggest getting familiar using the console as soon as possible | 04:28 |
| sproingie | true | 04:29 |
| sproingie | doing anything complicated usually requires the console | 04:29 |
| othernoob | doesn't it create a menu in the kmenu for games when you install them via kynaptic? | 04:29 |
| jeanluc | wow | 04:29 |
| jeanluc | tux it fast | 04:29 |
| jeanluc | :p | 04:29 |
| chris12349 | speaking of games if you are looking for a good strategy game checkout "Battle for Wesnoth" | 04:30 |
| othernoob | and a good adventure would be Beneath A Steel Sky | 04:30 |
| chris12349 | and I've wasted hours with frozen bubble...thats kind of embarrasing | 04:30 |

| IceDC571 | is the us repositories really messed up? | 12:42 |

| Jeezis | at least for me | 12:43 |
| nikkia | nxv, only the 'postgres' user can create users initially | 12:43 |
| IceDC571 | Jeezis: i thought i was the only one!! damn | 12:43 |
| nikkia | nxv, use sudo -u postgres psql | 12:43 |
| IceDC571 | Jeezis: so whats the address for the uk reps? | 12:43 |
| Jeezis | IceDC571: just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and in the addresses replace 'us' with 'uk' | 12:44 |
| hussam | mikl: but as breezy approaches final, upgrading will be possible, right? | 12:44 |
| nikkia | nvx, or better still sudo -u postgres createuser | 12:44 |
| IceDC571 | Jeezis: alright thanks! | 12:44 |
| Jeezis | IceDC571: then do an apt-get update | 12:44 |

| nikkia | mez, there is one issue i found i didn't like about dvd-ram... | 02:46 |
| Mez | which is? | 02:46 |
| nikkia | the way linux caches disk writes, and then drops them to disk every 30 seconds, makes copying big files to the disk absolutely cripple your system | 02:47 |
| Mez | lol | 02:47 |
| Mez | then use a non journalling system :F | 02:47 |
| nikkia | you can mount the disk as synchronous, which means when a byte is written, it is written rather than cached, but that often makes things 'far too slow' to copy | 02:47 |
| nikkia | mez, its not about the journal | 02:47 |
| insanekane | maybe its a feature of the dvd ram driver ? | 02:47 |
| nikkia | insane, no, its a limitation of the linux fs methodology | 02:48 |
| insanekane | oh right | 02:48 |
| === Mez does a cd / tar -zcf base.tgz * | ||
| nikkia | insanekane: if you copy 300MB to the disk, it'll fill almost all of the cache buffers, then after 30 seconds 'sync' happens, and locks the fs code until the sync ends, which will take about 20 minutes | 02:48 |
| insanekane | nikkia: is it being revamped ? | 02:48 |
| nikkia | insanekane: not afaik | 02:48 |
| insanekane | oh that sucks | 02:48 |
| nikkia | insanekane: the workaround i used, was to patch cp and mv, so that they accepted a '--cachesize=' parameter | 02:49 |
| insanekane | how come they havent changed it ? | 02:49 |
| Mez | nikkia - I'm assuming that's to DVD only... it doesnt work like that on hDD right? | 02:49 |
| insanekane | what would that do ? | 02:49 |
| nikkia | so i would do cp --cachesize=4MB some_big_file.avi /mnt/dvd-ram | 02:49 |
| nikkia | then, it would force that fs to sync after every 4MB, which only takes a few seconds to write | 02:49 |
| nikkia | erm, --cachesize=4M that is | 02:50 |
| nikkia | i stole the 'human readable numbers' code from dd :) | 02:50 |

| insanekane | hmm | 02:50 |

| cafuego | !ops | 02:51 |
| apokryphos | all the main ones are out at the moment, but I'm sure it'll be alright | 02:51 |
| cafuego | apokryphos: I'll ask 'em first regardless. | 02:52 |
| nikkia | insanekane: i contemplated modifying the fs 'sync' option so that IT would limit cache size for each filesystem, but it isn't an easy job | 02:52 |
| cafuego | apokryphos: Don't want no +q or +b on the bot. | 02:52 |
| apokryphos | cafuego: Ok, cool. Riddell, amu, or haggai you could ask | 02:52 |
| nikkia | insanekane: adding a feature to the fs backend that takes '-o sync=4M' to mount would be really useful | 02:52 |
| nikkia | insanekane: it'd help out with some network shares too | 02:53 |
| apokryphos | sure | 02:53 |
| insanekane | nikkia: dont the linux devels know about this problem ? | 02:53 |
| nikkia | insanekane: very few people use random access optical media, i doubt its a major issue for many people | 02:53 |
| cafuego | apokryphos: I'll idle here until they show up (and I'm awake) then I'll ask. | 02:53 |
| nikkia | insanekane: i haven't tested to see how linux handles +RW disks formatted ext2/3 yet tho | 02:53 |
| apokryphos | cafuego: Alrighty, sounds good. | 02:54 |
| insanekane | nikkia: but you said this problem affects hard-disk-to-hard-disk copy also ... | 02:54 |
| nikkia | insanekane: not to a noticable degree | 02:54 |
| insanekane | oh right :P | 02:54 |
| apokryphos | cafuego: I used to have my bot in here, but admittedly he wasn't nearly as comprehensive as ubotu. | 02:54 |
| apokryphos | cafuego: he a certain type of bot? | 02:54 |
| nikkia | insanekane: in the case of copying between 2 HDs, the speed is high enough that cache flushing isn't a problem really, unless you're copying REALLY big files | 02:55 |
| nikkia | insanekane: if you try to copy a 10GB file between drives, you'll notice it, sure | 02:55 |
| cafuego | apokryphos: He's a blootbot; the cvs version with a few hacks, to make it use the ubuntu Package archives. | 02:55 |
| insanekane | nikkia: yes, i have tried ... and it is slow | 02:55 |
| apokryphos | nice | 02:55 |
| nikkia | insanekane: the difference is, because DVD-RAM is so slow, your system becomes unresponsive for dozens of minutes to fill a whole disk | 02:56 |
| cafuego | apokryphos: buggy POS, actually ;-) | 02:56 |
| hussam | why does dh -b give me wrong values | 02:56 |
| hussam | any one knows? | 02:56 |
| cafuego | apokryphos: Had to add in a bunch of debug code to make it not drop the mysql connection a few times a day | 02:56 |
| apokryphos | Hehe. Indeed. The slowest and most bloated bot in the world | 02:56 |
| cafuego | bloatbot? | 02:57 |
| insanekane | nikkia: yeah i get it | 02:57 |
| nikkia | hussam, dh? | 02:57 |
| nikkia | hussam: do you mean du ? | 02:57 |
| apokryphos | cafuego: their personal description ;-) | 02:57 |
| hussam | sorry df -h | 02:57 |
| nikkia | hussam: what is 'wrong' about it? | 02:57 |
| apokryphos | ( http://blootbot.sourceforge.net/ ) | 02:57 |
| cafuego | apokryphos: Ubotu is faster then the other bunch that run on #debian anyway :-) | 02:58 |
| nikkia | hussam, are you referring to the 1024 vs 1000 issue (df -H uses SI units, ie, similar to drive manufacturers), or are you referring to the missing 10% 'free' on each drive | 02:58 |
| hussam | df -h says i have 2 GB more disk space than I actually have | 02:58 |
| apokryphos | Really? They sure do love their bots 8) | 02:58 |
| cafuego | Mind you, dpkg runs on some celeron box | 02:58 |
| apokryphos | :| | 02:58 |
| cafuego | ubotu is a proper athlon with a GB of ram :-) | 02:58 |
| apokryphos | sweet | 02:59 |
| nikkia | hussam, can you paste an example of what you mean to a pastebin ? | 02:59 |
| hussam | nikkia: I have 27.0GB of empty space according to konqueror but df -h says 29GB | 03:00 |
| apokryphos | cafuego: is there a way to list currently the things he "knows" (i.e. packages is at http://askfdj) | 03:00 |
| insanekane | hussam: round off errors ? | 03:00 |
| === nikkia would bet konqueror is wrong :) | ||
| cafuego | apokryphos: http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/ has a 20-per-page listing | 03:00 |
| apokryphos | Nice | 03:01 |
| apokryphos | excellent description of ubuguide, if a little harsh :P | 03:01 |
| hussam | insanekane: no because konq says 16% used but df says 11% used | 03:01 |
| insanekane | oh right | 03:02 |
| nikkia | hussam, konqueror's disk meta-info is broken, severely | 03:04 |
| nikkia | from one of my drives, in konq: Free: 2.5GB Total: 112.7GB Used: 104.4GB Usage: 19% | 03:04 |
| nikkia | hussam, take df's word over konqueror's on this :) | 03:05 |

| nikkia | apokryphos: well, its 'bindings' not mapping... and the amorok wiki includes it, but not as a global stanza | 05:08 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the ubuntuguide one has it as a global stanza | 05:09 |
| nikkia | i don't know if that's WHY OSS doesn't work properly, but it seems to be the major difference between the two | 05:09 |
| nikkia | (although there are a million different ways to configure dmix anyway) | 05:09 |
| nikkia | the amarok wiki has a flaw, too, IMO | 05:09 |
| nikkia | it vaguely hints at locking the sample rate to 44100 (its commented out...) whereas you're better locking it to 48kHz as many sound cards don't like 44100 these days | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: your chance to help them by editing ;-) | 05:10 |
| nikkia | all of the SBlive family force 48KHz for example | 05:10 |
| supernix | ok so your talking about them advising people to not visit unbuntuguid.org | 05:10 |

| apokryphos | re: ubuguide.. nevermind, I guess. Time for the kubuntuguide to come shining through :P | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | supernix: correct. I don't think they're wrong in doing so, too. Uncompromising author there | 05:11 |
| supernix | looks like they would work together and ensure that their content closely matches | 05:11 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the only issue i have with the 'don't tell people to read ubuntuguide' is that they CLAIM that the ubuntu wiki covers everything on guide... clearly it doesn't, as there is no dmix setup hints | 05:11 |
| nikkia | and dmix comes up here so often that it gets annoying | 05:12 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: they claim that? Of course it doesn't | 05:12 |
| apokryphos | kudos doesn't have it yet, too | 05:12 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: iirc it makes the claim, i can't remember the URL to the 'don't use ubuntuguide' page tho | 05:13 |
| apokryphos | Kudos author seems like a genuinely great guy. Subject to quite a lot at the moment, so it's to be expected that he won't edit for a few weeks at least | 05:13 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: heh, oh wait, they do | 05:14 |
| supernix | I have found the Kudos site very helpful and answers more questions that I had | 05:14 |
| apokryphos | All information on Ubuntuguide.org is present on the wiki in clearer and better form | 05:14 |
| nikkia | yeah, BS :P | 05:14 |
| apokryphos | at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewUsersNetworkGuidelines | 05:14 |
| nikkia | that's the one | 05:14 |
| apokryphos | I'm editing that out | 05:14 |
| nikkia | i will credit the amarok instructions in one sense, they mention you can save it as .asoundrc rather than /etc/asound.conf, which i find a good idea | 05:16 |
| apokryphos | I wonder how the guy will react if *everyone* tells people not to use it... | 05:17 |
| nikkia | as if you put it in /etc/asound.conf, it creates /tmp sockets for the dmix plug, and if anything goes wrong, it usually requires a reboot to re-enable dmix, whereas if its in .asoundrc, it generally resets if you log out/in | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | I use xine engine for amaroK these days; pretty pleased, I'd say. | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | aha | 05:17 |

| danie1 | hi all, i have a problem | 05:20 |
| apokryphos | hi | 05:20 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: not quite, i'm within the M25 ring, part of the suburban sprawl :) | 05:20 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: hertfordshire, just south of harlow | 05:20 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: whoop, thought you said north London for a sec there. | 05:21 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: not 40, not close, nope. | 05:21 |
| danie1 | i installed kubuntu a few days ago, then i installed xfce from the repositories, and now neither will start :( | 05:21 |
| nikkia | no, altho i've lived in enfield before, which is the same basic post code as here, and IS north london :) | 05:21 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: though I went out around 9 the other day and it was 28C.. impressive. | 05:21 |
| jeanluc | how do I get mp3 to work in kubuntu | 05:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i think that's what its sposed to be today | 05:21 |
| jeanluc | its gay that they don't work | 05:21 |
| danie1 | i get the error "no write access to /home/daniel/.ICE"something | 05:21 |
| jeanluc | they should | 05:21 |
| danie1 | anyone know how to fix this? or how i could have caused it? | 05:22 |
| nikkia | danie1: that's odd, .ICE* is supposed to be in /tmp for just this reason :) | 05:22 |
| danie1 | what is it, anyway? | 05:22 |
| nikkia | danie1: its used for interprocess communication between apps | 05:22 |
| nikkia | dcop uses it | 05:23 |
| nikkia | ah, there is a .ICEauthority in your homedir | 05:23 |
| danie1 | ah, that's it :) | 05:23 |
| danie1 | might the different environment have changed something? | 05:23 |
| nikkia | danie1: you can probably safetly delete it, but you will probably need to restart X after you do | 05:23 |
| nikkia | danie1: its possible, yes | 05:23 |

| apokryphos | danie1: you could do it now, then log out and restart X | 05:24 |
| nikkia | danie1: you could do that, or you could do it in a konsole window, then hit ctrl-alt-backspace | 05:24 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: logging out of X might not work, since the logout program probably needs to connect to X :) | 05:25 |
| danie1 | but i can't start kde, so i can't get konsole :P | 05:25 |
| nikkia | danie1: oh, do it on a console login then | 05:25 |
| nikkia | you might still need to restart X at the kdm screen by pressing ctrl-alt-backspace though | 05:26 |

| danie1 | nikkia: well, i did a console login, did a sudo rm, then a startx, and xfce started. progress!!! | 05:31 |
| danie1 | nikkia: if xfce has set itself as the default x server, is there a way to restart kde? startx starts xfce, kdm does nothing, startkde needs startx first... | 05:32 |
| danie1 | i think i''l just restart | 05:33 |
| nikkia | danie1: its not an X server, per se, its a desktop environment, if you use kdm to login to X, rather than starting X from the command line, then you can change login session type from xfce to kde there | 05:33 |
| nikkia | as to why kdm isn't starting? that could be /tmp's .ICE-unix directory or something | 05:34 |
| nikkia | a reboot should wipe /tmp, so it might be easier than trying to work it out :) | 05:34 |
| danie1 | nikkia: no, after a console login, typing kdm never did anything for me...i don't think it's supposed to, is it? | 05:35 |
| nikkia | no | 05:35 |
| nikkia | kdm is supposed to be started by the system | 05:35 |

| nikkia | not really, i haven't really used xfce much | 05:40 |
| danie1 | it also doesn't show all the shutdown steps like shutting down from kde does (like shutting down processes, unmounting drives, etc.) | 05:41 |
| apokryphos | danie1: that's because you're using KDM | 05:42 |

| McScruff | im using KBluetoothD but i cant connect to one of my mobiles, how do i change the bluetooth connection code on the pc | 05:45 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: best? ;-) I dunno. Amazing -- yes. | 05:46 |
| danie1 | nikkia: what is dcop? | 05:46 |
| apokryphos | I don't use it that much though; on the odd occassion, or when playing around with skaramba | 05:46 |
| McScruff | RSS utilities for KDE | 05:46 |
| McScruff | kdenetwork-dcoprss is a RSS to DCOP bridge, allowing all | 05:46 |
| McScruff | DCOP aware applications to access RSS news feeds. There is also | 05:46 |
| McScruff | a few sample utilities provided. | 05:46 |
| McScruff | RSS is a standard for publishing news headlines. | 05:46 |
| McScruff | DCOP is the KDE interprocess communication protocol. | 05:46 |
| nikkia | McScruff: its /etc/bluetooth/pin | 05:46 |
| McScruff | ty | 05:46 |
| nikkia | danie1: mcscruff's description downplays it a bit | 05:46 |
| nikkia | it allows you to script inter-process communication | 05:47 |

| McScruff | nikkia ,, my description was the one on symptec | 05:47 |
| McScruff | synaptic | 05:47 |
| nikkia | danie1: its not invisible, the dcop util can be used to send function requests to apps | 05:47 |
| apokryphos | I sometimes have problems finding just what I want from dcop; can't remember if kdcop solves any of those problemos | 05:47 |
| nikkia | danie1: it allows you to do SOME of the things that apple users can do with applescript | 05:48 |
| nikkia | not QUITE that powerful, but its in that direction | 05:48 |
| danie1 | it might be the STRONGEST feature, but the best feature in kde for an end user would be the ui consistency across apps IMO | 05:48 |
| apokryphos | integration is a huge one, definitely | 05:48 |
| danie1 | sounds like dcop adds consistency in the backend | 05:48 |
| apokryphos | correct | 05:49 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: as a developer, i like being able to script GUI apps :) | 05:49 |
| danie1 | making kde totally awesome ;) | 05:49 |
| nikkia | as i said, its not quite as powerful as applescript/osascript is tho | 05:49 |
| apokryphos | Of course it's great for things like skaramba. Though skramba evilly lead me to believe that dcop couldn't handle many processes at once without driving up CPU | 05:49 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: that's just python being bloated :) | 05:50 |
| apokryphos | Yeah :P | 05:50 |
| nikkia | i love python, but you only need to use zope to see how bad it is :) | 05:50 |
| apokryphos | No bad words from me about Python. Only vaguely looked over it, but my brother echoes its praises daily 8) | 05:50 |
| danie1 | why does kubuntu come with so many python packages by default? are they necessary for the apps to run? | 05:50 |
| nikkia | danie1: because a lot of useful things are written in python | 05:51 |
| apokryphos | danie1: soemtimes; but Python is integral to Ubuntu itself | 05:51 |
| nikkia | danie1: from a developer's point of view, python is fast, easy and powerful | 05:51 |
| apokryphos | Mark Shut's primary interests were GNOME and Python | 05:51 |
| nikkia | danie1: all of my image processing utils for work are written in python+PIL | 05:51 |
| apokryphos | Exactly. You see its affects much quicker than C++ :P | 05:51 |

| === apokryphos is wondering if others use KStart just as little as him | ||

| nikkia | apokryphos: under 'Configure Desktop' if you click 'Advanced' it lets you set a program to draw the desktop background, the default is 'kwebdesktop' which uses a supplied URL to draw the background | 06:15 |
| nikkia | using a RSS->Web aggregator, plus a bit of CSS, you could make a nice RSS background :) | 06:15 |
| === apokryphos is gonna look around now | ||
| nikkia | and since it gets run automatically every few minutes (10 by default) it wouldn't use as much CPU as karamba variants | 06:16 |
| === ubuntu [~ubuntu@p54ABF487.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | ie its a one-shot kind of thing, rather than sitting there consuming CPU cycles all the time | 06:16 |
| ubuntu | hello?? | 06:17 |
| nikkia | the default URL is news.kde.org i think, but you can change it | 06:17 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: do you think skaramba's slowness is down to the fact it's python, though? | 06:17 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i think its a mixture of things | 06:17 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: 1) being written in python, 2) the fact it gets redrawn *very* often | 06:17 |
| apokryphos | Python isn't that weak though, is it? | 06:17 |
| apokryphos | If you run a few dcop cycles with a theme CPU shoots up. Kinda sucks | 06:18 |
| nikkia | it is when you're trying to do lots of graphics and updating more than 1/sec tho :) | 06:18 |
| nikkia | python isn't 'weak' its just not really suited to that kind of thing, IMO | 06:18 |
| nikkia | also, most skaramba themes go way OTT on the transparencies and layered&scaled images | 06:19 |
| nikkia | i imagine its possible to write a really efficient skaramba theme, but noone seems to :) | 06:20 |
| apokryphos | Yeah, since there's limited amount of things on the market, the new thing has to be the same but cooler ;-) | 06:20 |
| apokryphos | Oh wait, I just realised that when I was trying things out, and testing dcop's speed I was doing it with python ;-) | 06:21 |
| apokryphos | (where dcop did 25 or so processes a second very easily) | 06:21 |
| apokryphos | but doing a couple a sec in karamba went to the moon and back | 06:21 |

| apokryphos | Arr... sneaky little thing that. I have Insert -> fields -> page number which seems to cut it | 07:12 |
| nikkia | no, that inserts the current page number at the cursor position | 07:13 |

| nikkia | when i was job hunting before i got this job, i ended up having to go to the local library to fill out one form a company emailed me, cos the form was in a protected .xls :/ | 07:18 |
| ep | Anybody here know why "middle clicking" within a Firefox browser window does not launch the URL in the clipboard buffer. This has always worked for me on other installs. Its not working now. | 07:18 |
| nikkia | ep, because firefox uses middle-click to mean 'open in new tab' | 07:18 |
| nikkia | its configurable somewhere, but i couldn't tell you where | 07:19 |
| nikkia | probably in about:config somewhere | 07:19 |
| seth_k | about:config | 07:19 |
| seth_k | browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick | 07:19 |
| seth_k | :) | 07:19 |
| seth_k | then I think you change middlemouse.contentLoadURL | 07:19 |
| seth_k | as well | 07:19 |
| nikkia | middlemouse.openNewWindow: true/false | 07:19 |
| nikkia | and middlemouse.contentLoadURL: true/false | 07:20 |
| ep | opening in a new tab would be ok too -- mines doing nothing:) | 07:20 |
| nikkia | swap the settings around, and bingo | 07:20 |
| nikkia | ep, i mean its used for 'open current link in new tab' :) | 07:22 |
| nikkia | ie, you put the cursor over a link, press the middle button, and it opens that link in a new tab, personally, i like it that way, but thats me :) | 07:22 |

| === froud [~sean@ndn-165-134-250.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | (you cannot use it to 'highlight a section of text and replace it with the pasted text' for example) | 07:27 |
| ep | but I like to "open in a new tab" but I usally right click and select that off a menu :) | 07:27 |
| ep | Yeah that part is confusing nikkia... But actually once I got used to it... I realized that it is probably more efficient than Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V | 07:29 |
| nikkia | ep, its not, i often replace whole chunks of code, you cannot do it with the highlight-click method | 07:30 |
| nikkia | my left hand stays over the keyboard when i'm doing text editing anyway, so ctrl-c/ctrl-v is no less efficient than the finger i have over the mouse, but the fact i can't replace text with the clipboard cripples my development time | 07:31 |

| apokryphos | wouldn't you like to rectify that situation? | 09:47 |
| apokryphos | Mindlessly doing the process again clearly isn't going to help in any sort of long-term | 09:47 |

| apokryphos | yes | 09:49 |
| jeanluc | ok | 09:49 |
| jeanluc | I set the mirrors to the closest ones | 09:50 |
| jeanluc | now where do I put the file? | 09:50 |
| jeanluc | ect/apt/ | 09:50 |
| jeanluc | ? | 09:50 |
| jeanluc | shit this is where I get confused | 09:51 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: it gives you exact instructions | 09:51 |
| jeanluc | ya you overwrite it by saving in kate | 09:52 |
| jeanluc | right? | 09:52 |
| apokryphos | if you have downloaded, saved, and altered the file to your computer's needs, then proceed to step 3 | 09:52 |
| jeanluc | jeanluc@ubuntu:~$ sudo mv /ect/apt/sources.list | 09:53 |
| jeanluc | mv: missing file argument | 09:53 |
| jeanluc | Try `mv --help' for more information. | 09:53 |
| jeanluc | is what I get when I type | 09:54 |
| jeanluc | ~$ sudo mv /ect/apt/sources.list in consle | 09:54 |
| apokryphos | Do you know what mv does? | 09:54 |
| jeanluc | no | 09:54 |
| apokryphos | You can view the manual pages of a command by typing, in konsole, man {somecommand} | 09:54 |

| apokryphos | i.e. for more information on man, type man man | 09:55 |
| kalenedrael | heh | 09:55 |
| apokryphos | You can quit from man pages by typing q | 09:56 |
| jeanluc | ok what is my working directory? | 09:56 |
| jeanluc | *home/jeanluc ? | 09:56 |
| jeanluc | or /ect/apt | 09:57 |
| apokryphos | Your working directory is a directory which you would work in. That is, a directory in which you would have permissions. | 09:57 |
| apokryphos | To view which directory you are in you can type "pwd" | 09:57 |
| jeanluc | so /home/jeanluc | 09:57 |
| apokryphos | pwd -- print working directory | 09:57 |
| jeanluc | ok | 09:58 |
| jeanluc | so if mv moves things | 09:58 |
| apokryphos | from viewing the manual page of mv, did you notice the syntax of it? | 09:58 |
| jeanluc | I need to type sudo mv /home/jeanluc/sources.list /ect/apt/sources.list? | 09:58 |
| === root [~root@194-144-101-207.du.xdsl.is] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| apokryphos | Note that in UNIX systems you can either use absolute filenames (i.e. mv /home/username/file /some/other/file) or relative ones... so if you're in /home/username, typing mv file /some/other/file will do just the same as the first one | 09:59 |
| apokryphos | Absolute path, rather, I should say. | 10:00 |
| apokryphos | also, in Linux the tilde (~) can be used to represent /home/youruser | 10:00 |
| jeanluc | ok this is what im getting | 10:00 |
| jeanluc | jeanluc@ubuntu:~$ sudo mv /home/jeanluc/sources.list /ect/apt/ | 10:00 |
| jeanluc | mv: cannot move `/home/jeanluc/sources.list' to `/ect/apt/sources.list': No such file or directory | 10:00 |

| apokryphos | It's good practice to backup files like that first before you're overwriting them | 10:01 |
| kalenedrael | spell it correctly | 10:01 |
| kalenedrael | it's /etc/apt/sources.list | 10:01 |
| apokryphos | that's what this is for: sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.`date +%y%m%d-%H%M` | 10:01 |
| chris12349 | I would suggest making a backup of sources.list (sources_old.list) or something | 10:01 |
| jeanluc | I have | 10:02 |
| apokryphos | (note also in Linux that there is no "rename" command... you can use mv to rename files) | 10:02 |
| _nikkia | apokryphos: man rename | 10:02 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: ssh! | 10:02 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i find 'rename' to be a very useful linux command | 10:02 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: yeah, thats another useful command, good choice :P | 10:03 |
| apokryphos | Funny, I always just used mv. | 10:03 |
| apokryphos | chris12349: correct | 10:03 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: ever used krename? That's really great, too. | 10:03 |
| chris12349 | that will be incredibly helpful to me...thanks! | 10:03 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: once, i think | 10:03 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: at least, i remember using *a* GUI renamer, i assume it was krename | 10:03 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: I was going to package it but apparently it's in some Debian repo, so hey :P | 10:04 |
| apokryphos | anyhow, jeanluc: now you just want to put your new sources.list in the appropriate place | 10:04 |
| jeanluc | ok I did | 10:05 |
| jeanluc | but now | 10:05 |
| jeanluc | when I open kynaptic | 10:05 |
| jeanluc | Type 'US' is not known on line 42 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list | 10:05 |
| jeanluc | why do we have | 10:06 |
| jeanluc | why do I have to do this | 10:06 |
| Mez | jeanluc - use http://www.pastebin.com and paste the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list | 10:06 |
| apokryphos | It says they're something wrong with your file there, on guess which line :P | 10:06 |
| chris12349 | ;) easy fix jeanluc this stuff will become second nature very soon | 10:07 |
| Mez | apokryphos, somehow I don't think jeanluc is an idiot :D | 10:07 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: apt sources are the places that Ubuntu would look for repositories. More sources, more repositories | 10:07 |
| apokryphos | Mez: hence the smilie ;-) | 10:07 |
| Mez | apokryphos, yeah, but - text that seems insulting comes across as insulting whether it's got a smile on the end or not | 10:08 |
| apokryphos | Mez: I disagree. If you think a smilie has no affect over the bearing of the interpretation of a post then I can't really agree at all -- it's plainly not the case. | 10:08 |

| jeanluc | why do I have to update this file | 10:09 |
| jeanluc | shouldn't it already be updated by kubuntu? | 10:09 |
| apokryphos | Mez: the smilie was not noticeable? I'm sorry you missed it; quite clear to me. | 10:09 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: not really, because some of the repositories you may be adding includes non-free stuff and other things not supported officially by Ubuntu | 10:10 |
| jpatrick | How do I change myself to root on a folder? - I'm trying to edit sources.list | 10:10 |
| Mez | apokryphos, actually the smilie came across as making the sentence more patronising to me apokryphos and does so moer now I re-read | 10:10 |
| === nikkia suggests use of an irc client that uses nice icons for smilies :P | ||
| nikkia | its hard to miss them when they're a nice round yellow face stuck on the end of the line... | 10:11 |
| apokryphos | Mez: You are of course perfectly entitled to your interpretation. I may come off pedantic, but it's plainly not my intention. This is the third time today the guy comes in asking for precisely the exact same thing | 10:11 |
| jeanluc | this is gay | 10:11 |
| apokryphos | Mez: the whole reasoning behind it is that the user learns something rather than blindly following commands | 10:11 |
| Mez | jpatrcik - right click the file, click on actions, and then click edit as root | 10:11 |
| Mez | apokryphos, but to me you seem to be being unhelpful | 10:11 |
| jpatrick | okay thanks | 10:11 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: I don't think Linux systems are gay or not gay ;-) | 10:11 |
| kalenedrael | ok, jeanluc, you modify the file so kubuntu knows where to update its package lists from | 10:11 |
| Mez | and jeanluc, please mind your conduct | 10:12 |
| jeanluc | why don't you give me the commands please and then tell me what they mean | 10:12 |
| apokryphos | Mez: telling him the exact command I told him the first two times would evidently be more unhelpful | 10:12 |
| kalenedrael | wow jeanluc, you can't open up a file in a text editor? | 10:12 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: we can work out the problem with your sources.list... you didn't follow the instructions exactly, else you wouldn't be getting the error. Why not pastebin them, as was suggested? | 10:13 |
| === mode/#Kubuntu [+o Mez] by ChanServ | ||
| pax | anyone knows how to set aliases permanently? | 10:13 |
| jeanluc | IDK wtf paste bin is | 10:13 |
| kalenedrael | pax, in your .bash_profile | 10:13 |
| pax | thx | 10:13 |
| kalenedrael | or .bashrc | 10:13 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: www.pastebin.com -> go there, enter in the sources.list, and then once you've posted it, provide the link in this channel | 10:13 |
| kalenedrael | they both have more or less the same function... but i forget what the difference is, specifically | 10:13 |
| apokryphos | common practice in IRC, on many occassions. | 10:13 |
| pax | kalenedrael: no easy way to save them by command? | 10:14 |
| kalenedrael | well, open up the files and edit them | 10:14 |
| nikkia | kalenedrael: one is sourced only at login, the other each time a shell is spawned | 10:14 |
| pax | alright :) | 10:14 |
| jeanluc | ok | 10:14 |
| jeanluc | its on pastebin | 10:14 |
| Mez | link ? | 10:14 |
| nikkia | kalenedrael: iirc, _profile is the one done once at login | 10:14 |
| kalenedrael | ah | 10:14 |
| nikkia | and also, iirc, .bash_login works too | 10:14 |
| kalenedrael | ok | 10:14 |
| nikkia | and it probably reads in .profile too, just to be compatible :) | 10:15 |
| Mez | jeanluc - what's the link on pastebin for it? | 10:15 |
| kalenedrael | heh | 10:15 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: check line 42 and what do you think might be going wrong with it | 10:15 |
| Mez | pax, I've always used ~/.bashrc | 10:15 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: apt tries to read any line that isn't commented out | 10:15 |
| nikkia | ah, by default, bash only reads .bashrc when it is a non-interface shell | 10:16 |
| pax | Mez: that's where I found the default ones like ls -al and ls -l ..etc | 10:16 |
| Mez | but you can also edit /etc/bash.bashrc | 10:16 |
| nikkia | interface? i meant interactive | 10:16 |
| jeanluc | ok | 10:16 |
| jeanluc | it said | 10:16 |
| Mez | pax, then you add your own | 10:16 |
| jeanluc | un comment the server closet to youi | 10:16 |
| jeanluc | so I did | 10:16 |
| nikkia | mez, according to the manual, that's a bad idea... | 10:16 |
| jeanluc | so wtf does it want? | 10:16 |
| pax | Mez: nah I just want to save them for me as single user so .bashrc looks like the right place, thx :) | 10:16 |
| pax | or am I understanding this wrong? | 10:17 |
| nikkia | the *rc files only get read by non-interactive shells by default, so you want aliases in .bash_profile, unless your .bash_profile source's .bashrc, but that would kind of defeat the purpose of having two seperate configuration files that get executed in different circumstances | 10:17 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: something is wrong with that very line 42... it's not a link to a repository, so why isn't it commented out? | 10:17 |
| nikkia | altho, i must admit, *most* console windows don't create shells with login prefs | 10:17 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: as I said, apt tries to read everything that isn't commented out. That's not a repository, so apt doesn't want it. | 10:18 |
| jeanluc | Yes I know I fixed it | 10:18 |
| nikkia | oh, wait, that business about ignoring them by default only applies in sh-compatibility | 10:18 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: no-one at all? :P | 10:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: and i very much doubt you mean THAT kind of pre-linking | 10:21 |
| supernix | just curious does anyone know of a program that will allow you to keep multiple notes in the same program ? | 10:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: pretty sure, haven't seen it used since about 1995 | 10:21 |
| apokryphos | I remember using it once before and being mildly happy with it | 10:21 |
| apokryphos | good description: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/prelink-howto.xml | 10:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i really think we're talking about two different 'pre-link' concepts | 10:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: no, that's different | 10:22 |
| apokryphos | supernix: what type of notes? | 10:22 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: ok | 10:22 |
| supernix | Um hmm they would be equal to rtf format not sure what they use in Linux | 10:22 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the pre-link i remember was where you roll all of your .o files, stripped of symbols, into a .a file, then ship it with a tiny shell script tagged on that does the final link, it was used to ship binary executables in the days when libc wasn't stable | 10:22 |
| jeanluc | sudo apt-get upgrade | 10:22 |
| apokryphos | Yeah, that's not it. | 10:23 |
| apokryphos | This works with shared libraries; kind of preloading, I guess | 10:23 |
| nikkia | yeah, i see that | 10:23 |
| apokryphos | supernix: not sure at all quite, but if you just mean ordinary notes.. KNotes is good | 10:23 |
| supernix | I guess the notes might be or could be html formatted | 10:23 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: sudo apt-get update --- that will refresh your sources for apt to use | 10:24 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: apt-get upgrade would try to upgrade all packages installed | 10:24 |
| nikkia | supernix: you could always use emacs and one of its many notes-systems :) | 10:24 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: trying to remember if it actually sped up my system when I used it ;-) | 10:25 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i doubt it | 10:25 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: it might on occasionally used binaries where the libraries it uses aren't used elsewhere | 10:25 |
| apokryphos | Hm, ok. I may try it out; takes ages to set up however. | 10:25 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: for the majority of libs, they're going to be in memory ready for ld.so anyway | 10:26 |

| nikkia | apokryphos: my reasoning is... | 10:27 |
| nikkia | any lib that is pre-linked in, and is commonly used, is just padding the size of the executable, which will more negatively affect the load/start time than any perceived benefit in side-stepping ld.so's caching algorithms | 10:28 |
| === apokryphos goes off to learn about ld.so | ||
| nikkia | anything you don't use often enough to justify that, you're probably not using enough to care about a slight increase in load time, anyway | 10:28 |

| nikkia | supernix: ie, you can push notes to someone else's knotes setup | 10:39 |
| supernix | wow that is kewl | 10:39 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: it is allowed if you get the appropriate packages, but for some reason it's apparently not working for you | 10:39 |
| === jeanluc wants to know how come I can't play mp3's in linux | ||
| nikkia | supernix: never tried it, so i have no idea if it works (properly) or not | 10:39 |
| jeanluc | now porky | 10:39 |
| supernix | I guess it is hard to compete with POP3 | 10:39 |
| jeanluc | can you help me with mp3's? | 10:39 |
| jeanluc | please | 10:39 |
| nikkia | supernix: urgh, pop3??! people still use that? | 10:40 |
| apokryphos | if amarok is installed and amarok-engines is, then as far as I know MP3s should work perfectly | 10:40 |

| nikkia | apokryphos: imap, of course | 10:41 |
| uniq | hello. | 10:41 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: same as they've been using since 1996 when it surpassed pop3 in features and usability :) | 10:41 |
| apokryphos | oh | 10:41 |
| === apokryphos is reminded of cvs and svn | ||
| jeanluc | nope | 10:42 |
| jeanluc | mp3 doesn't work | 10:42 |

| uniq | imap with serverside spam/virus/rules filtering. :) | 10:42 |
| nikkia | some of us are even looking forward to the push-mail technologies and forward-without-upload stuff in the next version of imap | 10:42 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: pop3 uses slightly less network bandwidth | 10:42 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: some would argue that pop3 is better for offline use, but i would argue thats down to how you configure your mail client, every client i've used has had a 'pull from imap to local folders for offline reading' option anyway | 10:43 |
| jeanluc | ok | 10:43 |
| nikkia | uniq, imap is even better for client-side spam filtering than pop3 | 10:43 |
| jeanluc | WTF mp3's won't play they do but no audio | 10:43 |
| jeanluc | :( | 10:43 |
| nikkia | as you can just receive headers, apply blacklists to them, without downloading the rest | 10:44 |
| apokryphos | handy | 10:44 |
| nikkia | and the equivalent pop3 mechanism isn't standard and only works on a few pop3 servers | 10:44 |
| jeanluc | yes its handy now help me with mp3's please | 10:44 |
| tommy | mybe is sound card | 10:44 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: so they do play... | 10:44 |
| jeanluc | its not | 10:44 |
| tommy | maybe | 10:44 |
| jeanluc | yes but I hear nothing | 10:44 |
| jeanluc | and my sound card work in winblows | 10:44 |
| nikkia | jeanluc: don't be so needy | 10:44 |
| uniq | nikkia: i don't like clientside things. serverside owns :) my ibook is overloaded enought as it is OK to have the thousands of mails on a server far far away :) | 10:44 |
| apokryphos | jeanluc: you get sound from other audio types? | 10:44 |
| jeanluc | yes .wav | 10:45 |
| nikkia | uniq, *nod* | 10:45 |
| jeanluc | but most of my collection is on mp3 | 10:45 |
| nikkia | uniq, i recently turned on boxtrapper on my mail server :/ | 10:45 |
| nikkia | uniq, even with spamassassin i was getting far too much | 10:45 |
| apokryphos | I used spamassassin for a friend of mine's email and it's worked well so far | 10:45 |
| apokryphos | no real complaints. GMail is still the best spam filter :P | 10:46 |
| jeanluc | yes | 10:46 |
| jeanluc | I agree | 10:46 |
| jeanluc | I love gmail | 10:46 |
| apokryphos | I think I've had two spam emails since I signed up | 10:46 |
| jeanluc | :D | 10:46 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: if i turn off every one of my anti-spam protections, i receive upwards of 500-1000 spams a day | 10:46 |
| jeanluc | all mine went in spam | 10:46 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: yeouch | 10:46 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: its the price of a 10 year old domain name | 10:46 |
| apokryphos | moths to the flame | 10:46 |
| jeanluc | but only problem some stuff that is not spam gets placed in spam folder | 10:46 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: good to know that they're always there for some light reading | 10:47 |
| uniq | nikkia: i use rblsmtpd, spamassassin and procmail to filter things.. and clamav + f-prot virus for scanning. still i get some spam. | 10:47 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the really weird thing is... | 10:47 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: my mailboxes receive spam addressed to a demon address i used in 1994 | 10:47 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: some determined spammers ;-) | 10:47 |
| jeanluc | whats a demon adress? | 10:47 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: and i have no idea how the two got linked, because i left demon in jan 1995 and the domain name was setup when i moved to california | 10:48 |
| nikkia | jeanluc: demon is a british ISP | 10:48 |
| nikkia | jeanluc: in the early days of the internet it was the only affordable choice for internet access in the UK | 10:48 |
