| nmorse | What's the command to restore an MBR with GRUB? | 05:02 |
| nmorse | Anyone? | 05:02 |
| nmorse | That's the dadgum problem with GRUB | 05:02 |
| frank | sudo grub-install | 05:02 |
| michael | how can I reupgrade kopete?/ | 05:03 |
| frank | but you would need to do it chrooted in your ubuntu installation probably | 05:03 |
| jeanluc | sudo apt-get isntall kopete | 05:03 |
| nmorse | Which appears to be impossible at the moment | 05:03 |
| frank | why? | 05:04 |
| nmorse | I can't seem to convince Morphix I need to chroot to /mnt/hda2 | 05:04 |
| nmorse | And why isn't grub-install mentioned in the GRUB manpage? | 05:04 |
| frank | nmorse: You have to mount the partition first | 05:04 |
| nmorse | It's mounted | 05:04 |
| nmorse | I assure you | 05:04 |
| nmorse | Who' | 05:04 |
| nmorse | s idea was it to leave grub-install out of the manpage? | 05:04 |
| frank | then chroot /mnt/ubuntu /bin/bash or whatever | 05:05 |
| michael | when i try to do the 'apt-get install kopete' it won't let me because i have the newest version, but i want to reinstall it | 05:05 |
| pax | type grub, then run: grub> root (hd0,0) grub> setup (hd0) grub> quit :) | 05:06 |
| nmorse | Where are the info or man pages for all of these commands? | 05:06 |
| pax | info grub | 05:06 |
| nmorse | That returns the man page | 05:07 |
| nmorse | Something's not right here | 05:07 |
| pax | didnt you ask for man pages? | 05:07 |
| nmorse | The man page has none of that in it | 05:07 |
| nmorse | None | 05:08 |
| nmorse | A lovely undocumented bootloader | 05:08 |
| sproingie | grub is a gnu thing. man pages are for dirty plebian scum. you shall use info, and bask in its resplendence | 05:09 |
| pax | nmorse: tried: apropos grub ? | 05:09 |
| nmorse | apropos? | 05:09 |
| nmorse | sproingie: the info page is identical to the man page except for the FSF at the top | 05:10 |
| pax | apropos is keyword finder | 05:10 |
| sproingie | nmorse: that's rich | 05:10 |
| nmorse | I just learned something | 05:10 |
| nmorse | Thank you pax | 05:10 |
| sproingie | pax: man -k works as well | 05:10 |
| sproingie | grub has some separate documentation in /usr/share/doc i think | 05:10 |
| pax | same thing, apropos is one word | 05:10 |
| sproingie | you might need to install grub-doc or something | 05:11 |
| michael | where is the sources.list? | 05:11 |
| sproingie | shouldn't need it, it should be in main | 05:12 |

| pax | grub-install --root-directory=/boot /dev/hda (exemple) | 05:16 |
| pax | update-grub | 05:16 |
| nmorse | It's amazing how none of this works | 05:18 |
| nmorse | God, the second I get this running I'm switching back to lilo | 05:19 |
| nmorse | Does anyone know why the installer doesn't offer the option to use one or the other anyway? | 05:20 |
| calc | nmorse: the reason it doesn't work is that you mounted the drive with nodev | 05:21 |
| calc | morphix mounts drives by default with the dev files disabled | 05:21 |
| nmorse | Hmm, but how to make morphix change its /etc/fstab | 05:21 |
| calc | just like with knoppix | 05:21 |
| frank | I thought pretty much everyone used grub now. | 05:21 |
| nmorse | Why would you use grub? | 05:21 |
| calc | nmorse: edit it with vi or something | 05:21 |
| calc | grub is much better than lilo | 05:21 |
| nmorse | For what? | 05:21 |
| calc | for boot loader | 05:21 |
| nmorse | It's more of a pain for sure, though the editing boot options thing is nice | 05:21 |
| calc | for one thing you don't have to install it every time you install a new kernel | 05:22 |
| nmorse | It's a generic bootloader, not a linux loader | 05:22 |
| calc | you can't change options of the fly | 05:22 |
| calc | etc | 05:22 |
| nmorse | I don't need Partition Magic, I need to boot my linux system | 05:22 |
| calc | lilo is just old crap that is near useless | 05:22 |

| jeanluc | delete windows partiions | 05:22 |
| nmorse | Near useless? | 05:22 |
| jeanluc | then linux should start just fine | 05:22 |
| pax | grub is better because: you can discover boot images, kernels, root filesystems from the grub shell. It stores boot info in filesystem rather than in the MBR. It reads filesystems and kernel rather than inflexibly restrict the user to disk geo and most important, it is OS independant | 05:23 |
| calc | with grub you can hit e on the thing you want to boot and actually edit the command line options right there or even select another kernel that isn't in the list off your fs | 05:23 |
| nmorse | lilo works, all the time, and is easy to fix after what I've just done | 05:23 |
| calc | i guess the feature i use the most of grub is that you can edit the kernel command line options while you are in the boot loader itself | 05:23 |
| calc | you can also network boot from grub if you need to | 05:24 |
| calc | but i don't use that much | 05:24 |
| nmorse | I've used the feature once | 05:24 |
| nmorse | To turn on inotify to try it | 05:24 |
| nmorse | In lilo I would have made another entry | 05:24 |
| pax | calc <e> yes, I like that | 05:24 |
| frank | The best thing I know about grub is that it's "Grand" lol | 05:24 |
| nmorse | Now I'm paying for that by having to mess with everything | 05:24 |
| pax | in worst case senario you can use Knoppix CD to restore it :) | 05:26 |
| nmorse | Hopefully now this will work | 05:26 |
| nmorse | Morphix and Knoppix are pretty close in rescue capabilities | 05:26 |
| nmorse | Nowhere near the Woody CD | 05:26 |
| nmorse | Woody Disk 1 is the ultimate rescue CD | 05:26 |
| calc | knoppix works good for me i just have to always fix the fstab | 05:27 |
| calc | since it wants to help you out by making all partitions nodev | 05:27 |
| nmorse | There we go, the commands fixed it finally | 05:27 |
| nmorse | Though it reinserted GRUB entries that don't boot | 05:27 |
| nmorse | Because they don't exist | 05:27 |
| nmorse | Why it does that is beyond me | 05:27 |
| nmorse | Anyway, enough GRUB bashing for today | 05:28 |
| calc | nmorse: which entries? | 05:28 |
| nmorse | Custome kernels I made | 05:29 |
| nmorse | and then apt-get removed | 05:29 |

| nmorse | Nope | 05:29 |
| nmorse | And the kernel packages are purged actually | 05:30 |
| calc | hmm i've never seen update-grub create dead entries before | 05:30 |
| calc | the file it references isn't on the disk either? | 05:30 |
| nmorse | Nope | 05:32 |
| nmorse | It boggles the mind | 05:32 |
| calc | very strange | 05:32 |
| nmorse | But no more! | 05:32 |
| nmorse | Lilo shall be on the disk immediately | 05:32 |
| calc | you could strace the update-grub command to see where it is looking | 05:33 |
| nmorse | I could | 05:33 |
| nmorse | But first I have to go rescue my brother from "I locked the keys in the car" hell | 05:35 |

| Computer__Guru | when you install the kubuntu desktop, you have other menus on the kicker besides the K menu.. how do I make such a menu and add it to the panel? | 11:36 |
| Computer__Guru | i dont see it anywhere on the add menu | 11:37 |
| liz4rd | i'm not sure you can | 11:37 |
| liz4rd | well you probly can | 11:37 |
| Computer__Guru | sure you can | 11:37 |
| liz4rd | just never seen how | 11:37 |
| Computer__Guru | kubuntu does it | 11:37 |
| Computer__Guru | ill ask in kde | 11:37 |
| liz4rd | i'm in xfce4 right now XD | 11:37 |
| liz4rd | ok | 11:37 |
| hussam | liz4rd: are using ubuntu's xfce or did you compile yourself? | 11:39 |
| liz4rd | compiled | 11:39 |
| Computer__Guru | ffr, you can just drag a folder from konqueror to the panel and it adds it ;) | 11:40 |
| liz4rd | oh | 11:40 |
| liz4rd | :P | 11:40 |
| liz4rd | dont like kde much | 11:40 |
| nikkia | Computer__Guru: i think if you create a new menu in the menu editor, you can just add that menu as a button | 11:40 |
| hussam | liz4rd: did you enable compositor? | 11:40 |
| === _greg [~greg@195.226.6.66] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Computer__Guru | nikkia just drag n drop a folder from konqueror to the panel :) | 11:41 |
| liz4rd | yes, but i dont know how to get drop shadows | 11:41 |
| nikkia | Computer__Guru: i've done it before on my work machine, but it was ages ago, and I can't remember how I did it | 11:41 |
| nikkia | Computer__Guru: that's not how i did it before | 11:41 |
| Computer__Guru | im giving myself a new look.. getting tired of osx | 11:41 |
| Computer__Guru | it works though :) | 11:41 |
| hussam | liz4rd: same problem here. I enabled compositor but I'm getting not drop shadows. | 11:41 |
| liz4rd | yeah, kinda shitty | 11:42 |
| hussam | liz4rd: it should give drop shadows automatically | 11:42 |
| hussam | liz4rd: any idea what could be wrong? I configured xorg.conf but still get no drop shadows. | 11:43 |
| nikkia | did you *really* enable composite ? | 11:43 |
| hussam | yes I compiled xfce with enable composite flag | 11:44 |
| nikkia | bear in mind, by default, composite and GLX cannot co-exist, you have to force them to co-exist (and its very buggy if they're both enabled) | 11:44 |
| hussam | nikkia: how do you force them? | 11:44 |
| nikkia | so you might enable composite in Xorg, but if GLX is enabled (it will be, most likely) composite gets turned off again :) | 11:44 |
| hussam | so I should disable glx? | 11:45 |
| nikkia | hussam, Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true" | 11:45 |
| nikkia | if you're using ATI, you need Option "backingstore" "true" too, apparently | 11:46 |
| liz4rd | lmfao @ ATI | 11:46 |
| nikkia | liz4rd: some people still buy their cards *shrug* | 11:47 |
| liz4rd | lol what a shame | 11:47 |
| hussam | nikkia: I already have "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true" under Section "Device" using Nvidia Geforce fx 5200 | 11:47 |
| nikkia | hussam, do you have Option "RenderAccel" "true" ? | 11:48 |
| nikkia | you might need that too | 11:48 |
| hussam | yup | 11:48 |
| hussam | I still get drop shadows in kde 3.4.1 but not in xfce | 11:48 |
| hussam | this however used to work in my previous distro before I switched over to Kubuntu. | 11:49 |
| nikkia | oh, dunno, don't use xfce | 11:49 |
| liz4rd | xfce4 is the shiznet | 11:49 |
| liz4rd | :P | 11:49 |
| hussam | liz4rd: lol | 11:50 |
| nikkia | oh, ffs, MMS spam from one of my cell providers | 11:50 |
| nikkia | and to think i thought SMS spam was annoying | 11:50 |
| liz4rd | lol | 11:50 |
| hussam | nikkia: I get spam messges on my cell phone too. | 11:51 |
| nikkia | hussam: MMS ? | 11:51 |
| nikkia | SMS spam is common | 11:51 |
| nikkia | MMS spam, this is the first i've seen | 11:51 |
| liz4rd | WTF, how is that? | 11:51 |
| hussam | no just sms spam | 11:51 |
| hussam | i just got one sms about a Pizza Hut ad. | 11:51 |
| liz4rd | LOL | 11:51 |
| === nikkia shudders and realises sooner-or-later i'm going to get 3G spam on my 3G account | ||
| liz4rd | lol | 11:52 |
| === liz4rd goes into hibernation until gmail reaches a terabyte | ||
| liz4rd | :P | 11:53 |
| nikkia | liz4rd: its been very flakey recently :/ | 11:53 |
| liz4rd | how so? | 11:53 |
| nikkia | liz4rd: its been down a lot, and the IG->gmail gateway has been down a lot as well | 11:54 |
| liz4rd | hmm | 11:54 |
| nikkia | so much so that i'm almost tempted to take gmail off IG | 11:54 |
| liz4rd | IG? | 11:54 |
| nikkia | (i have IG set as my homepage) | 11:54 |
| nikkia | liz4rd: 'MyGoogle' | 11:54 |
| nikkia | www.google.com/ig | 11:54 |
| liz4rd | oh cool | 11:55 |
| nikkia | its basically a portal to google, that's customised, shows you your gmail message count, any replies to your posts on google groups, etc | 11:55 |
| nikkia | but recently, all its shown for the gmail section is 'There is currently a problem receiving your gmail account' | 11:55 |
| liz4rd | hmm | 11:56 |
| nikkia | i think its related to change from gmail->google mail | 11:56 |
| nikkia | to the change, that is | 11:56 |
| liz4rd | lol when i google weather for my postalcode (i live in canada) a link to phrack comess up :P | 12:01 |

| apokryphos | Internet, maybe? | 02:45 |
| ep | shouldn't kubuntu of set up some aliases by default? When I do 'alias -p' it lists nothing. | 02:46 |
| boga | kalenedrael: Thanks for the help. I am now installing the beast! Where do I get the other commands like `/topic'? | 02:47 |
| kalenedrael | /help | 02:47 |
| ep | I want to get color when I do a ls command in konsole for instance. I did an alias to do this but it wasn't permanent. Forgot what i did, too:) | 02:48 |
| === bbailey_ [~bbailey@adsl-8-115-165.mia.bellsouth.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ep | and why wouldn't the alias command be in the man page? Shouldn't bash commands be there? | 02:49 |
| nikkia | ep, there are hundreds of bash commands, most of them are in the bash man page | 02:50 |
| nikkia | it would clutter the man page system too much for them all to be listed in seperate pages | 02:50 |
| nikkia | there are a handful of commands that link a man page to bash's, but they are the important ones, alias isn't really 'important' | 02:51 |
| ep | ok thanks for clearing that up | 02:52 |
| nikkia | i'm a little puzzled why ls isn't already aliased to 'ls --color=auto' on your system tho, that is the default setting on kubuntu as far as i can tell | 02:52 |
| nikkia | altho i'll be honest and admit i can't find wtf it is aliased... | 02:52 |
| qbit | man dir_colors | 02:53 |
| nikkia | apparently, /etc/skel/.bashrc | 02:53 |
| nikkia | which should get copied to ~/.bashrc when an account is created | 02:53 |
| ep | I'm puzzled by it too. I orginally did a ubuntu install and then #kubuntu-desktop | 02:54 |
| nikkia | ep, did you delete .bashrc from your home directory ? | 02:54 |
| nikkia | or perhaps its a difference between ubuntu and kubuntu | 02:54 |
| === troglodyt [~user@204-101-205-72.anikast.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ep | not on purpose:) | 02:55 |
| ep | let me see whats there now | 02:55 |
| kalenedrael | if that doesn't work i think you will have to use dircolors | 02:56 |
| nikkia | http://pastebin.com/313859 | 02:56 |
| nikkia | ep, that's the section of my ~/.bashrc that is relevant | 02:56 |
| ep | That file doesn't exist nikkia can I just create it ie. touch ~/.bashrc and then paste in your text (havent looked at it yet) | 02:57 |
| === troglodyt [~user@204-101-205-72.anikast.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | ep, no, do 'cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~/.bashrc' | 02:58 |
| nikkia | its easier, and should already have the alias in anyway | 02:58 |
| ep | i'll do that and then compare it to yours for kicks:) | 02:58 |
| ep | Do I need to end session to see all this in action? | 03:03 |
| apokryphos | ep: yeah | 03:04 |
| ep | brb | 03:04 |

| McScruff | ty | 03:22 |
| martinjh99 | Cheers Apok... ;) | 03:22 |
| martinjh99 | McScruff theres instructions on installing on Ubuntu on the Beagle Wiki Page... Not sure where that is though. | 03:23 |
| nikkia | be careful with beagle if you use things like bittorrent :) | 03:23 |
| apokryphos | !beagle | 03:23 |
| ubotu | apokryphos: I haven't a clue | 03:23 |
| nikkia | beagle attempts to load *all* of a file into ram to index it, and if you have anything like, oh say, a 4GB .rar file kicking around, that can be rather painful | 03:23 |
| qbit | martinjh99: you can add this to anything by editing the properties and drilling down to advanced and check the section "run as" and making it root | 03:23 |
| apokryphos | Is Beagle any good? Never used it | 03:24 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: its ok, a long way off being 'great' | 03:24 |
| qbit | martinjh99: then it will pop up the box and ask you for root's passwd | 03:24 |
| Riddell | I've never got beagle to work | 03:24 |
| apokryphos | ubotu: beagle is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HoaryBeagleInstallHowto | 03:24 |
| ubotu | apokryphos: okay | 03:25 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: a major flaw is that it only works on your home dir | 03:25 |
| martinjh99 | qbit Just added it infront of the command... | 03:25 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: what exactly is it? | 03:25 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: 'desktop searching' | 03:25 |
| apokryphos | Ohh, I remember now. Used it once on gnome | 03:26 |
| === apokryphos uses locate | ||
| nikkia | but being unable to search for where things are configured system wide, reduces its usability, IMO | 03:26 |
| Riddell | there is also Kat for KDE | 03:26 |
| apokryphos | Why can't it? Isn't pretty silly? | 03:26 |
| Riddell | stilsl very up-and-coming | 03:26 |
| kalenedrael | i like 'locate' for searching | 03:26 |
| nikkia | you still find yourself doing fgrep -ir blah /etc and so on | 03:26 |
| nikkia | kalenedrael: beagle et al do far more than filename matching | 03:27 |
| nikkia | which is all locate can do | 03:27 |
| kalenedrael | yeah | 03:27 |
| kalenedrael | but locate is fast | 03:27 |

| apokryphos | Looks pretty nice/organised | 03:32 |
| martinjh99 | Apok> Looks nice too. Going to dump in my repo... ;) | 03:33 |
| apokryphos | .deb looked a little dodgy; extracting it gave some errors (though it installed). Gonna compile | 03:34 |
| martinjh99 | Let me know what extra libs you need and I'll have a go at it too! Sounds interesting... | 03:34 |
| nikkia | one nice thing (if you're not paranoid) about beagle, is the firefox plugin... | 03:35 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: paranoid? On what grounding? | 03:36 |
| === Fraeon [~kzer-za@85-194-204-72.wlannet.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | apokryphos: every page you access in firefox, gets indexed by beagle | 03:36 |
| kalenedrael | yeah... | 03:37 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: if you visit stuff you don't want a trace of, on your PC, then you need to flush the beagle indexes as well as your firefox caches | 03:37 |
| nikkia | personally, it doesn't bother me, but i can see how it would 'worry' some paranoid folk :) | 03:37 |
| apokryphos | That doesn't seem much worse than browser history | 03:37 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: its not, but its two places to clear, rather than one, if you're of a paranoid disposition | 03:38 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: some people get really worked up by that kind of stuff *shrug* | 03:38 |
| nikkia | personally, i found it useful to have a searchable form of pages i'd visited | 03:39 |
| apokryphos | Since I use three browsers, I'd have to in theory clear all those anyhow :| | 03:39 |
| apokryphos | yeah, definitely | 03:39 |
| apokryphos | martinjh99: has some higher dependencies http://pastebin.com/313876 | 03:40 |
| nikkia | the big problem with all the desktop search systems tho, is that none of the x86 OS's on the market are really orientated towards applying desktop searches to them | 03:40 |
| === kalenedrael [~kalene@c-24-218-137-85.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| martinjh99 | Apok - Doesn't look like you can do it then... | 03:41 |
| apokryphos | I'd still say my searching on Linux is more effective with locate and grep | 03:41 |
| nikkia | you really need OS level support for 'file modified' callbacks, and while linux has support for file notifications, the modules involved tend to have limits that make them unuseful for desktop searching | 03:41 |
| martinjh99 | I have been able to find binaries just by locate file |grep bin | 03:42 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: Interesting. Do you think the current system is likely to change? | 03:42 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: eventually, yes | 03:42 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: this kind of thing is the whole point to stuff like winfs | 03:42 |
| nikkia | i imagine linux will end up morphing in that direction eventually too | 03:43 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: how good do you think LH will turn out to be? Lot of hype, lot of [questionable] bad reviews. | 03:43 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: as it stands now, a complete failure | 03:44 |
| nikkia | its not enough of an upgrade | 03:44 |
| nikkia | of course, as it was originally envisioned: a complete failure :) | 03:44 |
| apokryphos | Really? And it's been one of the biggest gaps between a release | 03:44 |
| apokryphos | hehe | 03:44 |
| nikkia | remember, originally, longhorn was going to be 'no native executables' | 03:44 |
| nikkia | everything was .NET or bust | 03:44 |
| apokryphos | Heh, I didn't know that, no. | 03:45 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: MS was banking on the xbox to alieviate any 'OMG games are too slow' concern, i think | 03:45 |
| jpatrick | 5 year project and what a waste of time | 03:45 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: what have they done to justify that 'biggest gaps between a release' tho ? | 03:45 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: sounds like a stretch ;-). | 03:45 |
| nikkia | all it is, atm, is a theme update | 03:45 |
| nikkia | that's it, a new theme, whooooopeee | 03:45 |
| apokryphos | The release kept getting delayed, didn't it? | 03:46 |
| apokryphos | Quite a few times I think | 03:46 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: I find the new theme ugly. It's just like XP but blue-er :| | 03:46 |
| jpatrick | yep | 03:46 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: but with each delay, they removed a few features from the 'new' list | 03:46 |
| === apokryphos prefers kdelook themes | ||
| nikkia | apokryphos: itym 'blacker' | 03:46 |
| nikkia | the latest LH bets have black backgrounds on widgets | 03:46 |
| Fraeon | nikkia: Ironic since a lot of xbox games seem to have framerate issues. | 03:46 |
| nikkia | bets=betas | 03:46 |
| Fraeon | At least KotOR, Jade Empire, Fable and Halo do. | 03:47 |

| ubotu | hmm... repositories is at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto | 03:50 |
| apokryphos | Are people likely to even turn to Linux because of Longhorn's failure? | 03:51 |
| jpatrick | maybe | 03:51 |
| apokryphos | I think more would actually go to Mac. User-friendly-wise, I think it probably beats it hands down. | 03:51 |
| jpowers | not unless they have some outside stimulus to switch, apokryphos | 03:51 |
| jpowers | er, re: linux, not mac | 03:52 |
| apokryphos | yup | 03:52 |
| jpowers | I definitely advocate linux more and more, the more user-friendly it gets. | 03:52 |
| jpowers | I end up having to tech-support my friends anyway, regardless of OS | 03:52 |
| apokryphos | I'm still weary of recommending it to some of my friends. Of the last three one never used it, and the other two asked me for the same command about 10 times =) | 03:53 |

| apokryphos | Yeah, GNOME and KDE are dedicating more time now, I think, to improving usability etc. | 03:54 |
| jpowers | _nova: sudo kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:54 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: if longhorn fails, it'll just mean people stick with XP | 03:54 |
| apokryphos | probably more gnome I'd say than KDE at the moment. Spoke to someone not too long ago who gave me a full psychological analysis of why they do x, y and z | 03:54 |
| jpowers | _nova: and then remove the # sign from the repo's containing "universe" | 03:55 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: I dunno. I think It could really be a time for Mac to rise up. Tried one the other day; affects/wobbly windows etc. are unrivalled. And of course people love stuff like that | 03:55 |
| apokryphos | though, people would first go for the "easier to use" option | 03:55 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the problem is, i think apple have shot themselves in the foot | 03:55 |
| apokryphos | how so? | 03:55 |
| === kosmo [~kosmo@adsl-68-88-6-54.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
| nikkia | apokryphos: once people see a apple P4 on the shelf next to a dell P4, at $3000 vs $300, i don't think apple'll survive in h/w very long | 03:56 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: remember, cost is NOT the reason they're switching to x86, they pay less for a G5 than the lowest P4 anyway | 03:56 |
| jpowers | I don't think P4 is the reason to switch to intel | 03:57 |
| jpowers | PM is. | 03:57 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: what is the reason? | 03:57 |
| nikkia | jpowers: either way, their machines won't be any cheaper than they are now | 03:57 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: production capacity, apparently | 03:57 |
| _nova | I need to kill synaptic, it hanged. How? | 03:58 |
| nikkia | IBM have been falling over on yield, apparently, which makes me worry about how the next-gen consoles will do supply-wise :) | 03:58 |
| jpowers | apokryphos: also failure to deliver a mobile G5. | 03:58 |
| jpowers | _nova: pkill synaptic | 03:58 |
| jpowers | _nova: or just click the x in the upper right hand corner of the window | 03:58 |
| nikkia | still, i was a level 1 xbox-360 pre-order, so i should be ok | 03:58 |
| apokryphos | Price of PS3 has shot up, hasn't it? I doubt that'll affect the sales too much | 03:58 |
| _nova | the x does nothing | 03:58 |
| nikkia | people in level 2 or 3 might have trouble :) | 03:59 |
| jpowers | _nova: it usually does after a few seconds if the program is actually hung. | 03:59 |
| apokryphos | _nova: Ctrl + Alt + Esc then click on synaptic, or "sudo killall synaptic" | 03:59 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: woah | 04:06 |
| supernix | jpowers: which works best though ? | 04:06 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: and yes, 48 months IS about how long it took to get a dir. update at one point, if you weren't a big corp | 04:06 |
| supernix | I would prefer one with a GUI config | 04:07 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: which is why yahoo's directory really isn't updated anymore | 04:07 |

| jpowers | nikkia: I can't imagine it being the default search page. | 04:10 |
| apokryphos | jpowers: the homepage | 04:10 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: look at how groups now gives priority to google's groups (the yahoo groups knock off) over any of the usenet groups | 04:10 |
| apokryphos | Google is of course getting a lot of power though. Also with the rumour of gwallet etc. | 04:11 |
| apokryphos | the whole "Gmail account" has a sneaking resemblance to what Microsoft hoped for the .NET passport | 04:11 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: there are some situations where if you search for something you KNOW exists on usenet, it just does not appear to be there unless you manually edit a usenet URL to use the specific group name | 04:11 |

| nikkia | apokryphos: at very least, it gives the facist government thugs one place to send a affidavit to when they want to check you haven't committed a thought crime :) | 04:19 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: also, bear in mind that while the management today of google may 'do no evil', they will not be the management of google forever | 04:20 |
| apokryphos | True, but that's a potential problem in any company. You'd hope that the managers of today will employ managers of tomorrow who share similar outlooks | 04:21 |

| othernoob | Bubbling_Zombie: i just noticed..he'll have to do that mount command every time..it'd be better to alter the /etc/fstab so it's mounted on boot | 06:45 |
| CeReaL | how do I updte my sources.list? | 06:46 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | CeReaL, edit it with your favorite text-editor in sudo mode | 06:46 |

| ubotu | okay, gigaclon | 06:50 |
| othernoob | meh, i already said most of what he's going to read now anyway.. | 06:50 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | tiago - when you installed you had to repartition your disk. There you had the option to choose mountpoints. you probably missed that. I did too -_- | 06:51 |
| tiago | oh | 06:52 |

| Bubbling_Zombie | sudo kate /etc/fstab | 07:00 |
| gigaclon | its gnome thing | 07:00 |
| apokryphos | To alter /etc/fstab you'll need to be root, and kate generally has problems sudoing as root, so go for kwrite | 07:00 |
| tiago | oh right... the tutrial is for ubuntu not kunbunto | 07:00 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | or take it like a man and use vi -_- | 07:00 |

| Bubbling_Zombie | you on firewire or usb? | 07:02 |
| apokryphos | tiago: what was it that produced the shadow effects you're talking about? | 07:02 |
| gigaclon | usb | 07:02 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | ok | 07:02 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | plug it in | 07:02 |
| tiago | xorg | 07:02 |
| gigaclon | GNOME got it automatically | 07:02 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | and check lsusb | 07:02 |
| apokryphos | tiago: yes, so composite effects; they work quite perfectly on Ubuntu with nvidia | 07:02 |
| tiago | you see mepis comes with xfree86 and i upgraded to xorg... but becouse mepis wasent realy made for xorg apps crashed alot | 07:03 |
| tiago | so now i have installed kubuntu becouse i dont want apps crashing | 07:03 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | gigaclon, did you try http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-26422.html | 07:03 |
| tiago | maybe ubuntu hasent recognized my video card? | 07:03 |
| nikkia | tiago, i've got some bad news for you... | 07:04 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | tiago, most restricted modules (including the nvidia drivers) are in the universe rep. try searching for "restricted modules" xD | 07:05 |
| apokryphos | tiago: you should be fine with them on Kubuntu; it uses Xorg by default, as said. | 07:05 |
| nikkia | it was likely the shadows that caused the crashing, composite is buggy :P | 07:05 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: not using the actual Mepis packages couldn't have helped ;-) | 07:05 |
| gigaclon | :) | 07:05 |
| tiago | im confused | 07:06 |
| tiago | i want my mommy | 07:06 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: likely not, but enabling composite often does hurt reliability, in my experience | 07:06 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | lol tiago | 07:06 |
| DrX | Hi, Im having some problems with my laptop. Sometimes the cpu goes up to 100% and it freezes i can't move the mouse, I ran top once and saw that artsd suddenly got up to 100% I quickly typed "killall artsd" it helped for about 10 sec then it crashed. Does anyone know what might cause this ? would it help if i switched to gnome (i thought if it artsd that causes it maybe gnome uses something else) | 07:06 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: Yup, definitely. It still doesn't run as fast too; especially for moving windows etc. | 07:06 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: doubly so if you enable composite AND glx | 07:06 |
| tiago | well moving windows was fine | 07:06 |
| tiago | speed wasent an issue | 07:07 |
| tiago | it was amarok crashing | 07:07 |
| apokryphos | tiago: it's worth trying out | 07:07 |
| tiago | and firefox crashing that pissed me off | 07:07 |
| tiago | but i cant get the shadows to work under ubuntu | 07:07 |
| tiago | i enabled them... and it gave me some errer when i loged in | 07:07 |
| apokryphos | what error/ | 07:07 |
| tiago | lol i dont realy remember what it said | 07:08 |
| tiago | but it was about the shadows | 07:08 |
| apokryphos | I'll be back in less than five mins -- will try to help then. | 07:08 |
| tiago | i dont understand why i need xorg to have shadows... its not like i NEED hardware alphablending to produce them... png software alphablending works just fine and dosent require hardware support | 07:09 |
| tiago | ok thanx bro | 07:09 |
| tiago | ok this is realy hurting my feelings... i try and sign in under root... and it asks for a password... and i never made one... is there a defult one im expected to know? | 07:11 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | use sudo for all your root needs | 07:12 |
| ChurcH_of_FoamY | is there like an address book for kubuntu? | 07:12 |

| ChurcH_of_FoamY | kk | 07:13 |
| tiago | do you know what i dont understand? why i need to edit fstab from konsole.. | 07:14 |
| tiago | if it was just file i could find in a directory and open and edit and save it would make life so much easyer | 07:15 |
| gigaclon | cause you need to be root | 07:15 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | open a console and use "sudo nanon /etc/fstab" | 07:15 |
| tiago | but no... linux insists i must constantly do every thing the hardest posible way | 07:15 |

| kalenedrael | jjesse, not reall | 08:16 |
| kalenedrael | y | 08:16 |
| kalenedrael | actually, yes | 08:17 |
| kalenedrael | it doesn't come with GCC, so if you need to compile drivers for a network interface, make sure you have either GCC or the drivers on a disk | 08:17 |
| tiago | any one know why its crashing? | 08:17 |
| kalenedrael | it doesn't come with a lot of things that come with most other distros | 08:17 |
| kalenedrael | but seeing as you're "reloading", i think you already know that | 08:17 |
| other|study | kalenedrael: gcc is on the cd | 08:18 |
| kalenedrael | tiago, it's new and has problems | 08:18 |
| kalenedrael | other|study, really? | 08:18 |
| kalenedrael | i recall it not being on the cd | 08:18 |
| other|study | kalenedrael: just not installed by default | 08:18 |
| kalenedrael | i had to sudo apt-get it | 08:18 |
| kalenedrael | oh | 08:18 |
| other|study | kalenedrael: it'd be embarrassing for a distro if it came w/o gcc ;) | 08:18 |
| kalenedrael | yeah, it would | 08:18 |
