| seth_k | pfft | 12:49 |
| seth_k | partition magic costs money | 12:49 |
| seth_k | use gparted | 12:49 |
| gigaclon | does the same thing? | 12:49 |
| seth_k | yeah, it can even resize NTFS | 12:49 |
| === snikker [~snikker@host70-24.pool80182.interbusiness.it] has joined #Kubuntu | ||
| seth_k | i always use it by booting from a Hoary CD | 12:49 |
| seth_k | then apt-get installing it | 12:49 |
| seth_k | then resize and move away | 12:50 |
| seth_k | and if he is just erasing the windows part, it is super easy | 12:50 |
| seth_k | and it mimics Partition Magic's interface, so it's easy to use | 12:50 |
| snikker | hi, i'go a problem with the screen saver... it don't remember xscreensaver preferences... | 12:51 |
| michael | so, I have hoary installed now, if I do apt-get install gparted - I can use that: or do I need to boot with the ubuntu live cd and use it from there? | 12:51 |
| michael | ubuntu install* | 12:51 |
| seth_k | michael: you can't use it on a partition that is currently in use. So if you're wishing to expand your current partition, you're out of luck | 12:51 |
| seth_k | that's why I boot from a CD | 12:52 |
| seth_k | michael: if you're just wishing to alter other partitions that you can unmount temporarily, it's all good | 12:52 |

| michael | Can I edit all partitions if I am running the live, and open gparted from there? | 12:59 |
| stibby | and if possible, in torrent form | 01:00 |
| seth_k | michael: you have to use apt-get and install gparted while in the live environment, but then you can touch all partitions, yes | 01:00 |

| gdh | It makes sense since they can then share a single codebase for Windows + Mac, and get Linux as a freebie to sell to | 04:21 |
| Frank_dot | TestMAD: Well the ones that use opengl is one thing, the ones that use DirectX are pretty much stuck | 04:21 |

| Master-Yoda | anyone here? | 04:21 |
| TestMAD | yea | 04:21 |
| gdh | No, all asleep | 04:21 |
| Master-Yoda | THANK GOD | 04:21 |
| Frank_dot | Actually once Mac gets on x86, maybe it will be easier to get linux games | 04:22 |
| TestMAD | sleep? whats that? | 04:22 |
| Master-Yoda | ok ihave a pcmia card in my laptop | 04:22 |
| Master-Yoda | but when i go to activate it in the cp | 04:22 |
| gdh | best place for it, I find. | 04:22 |
| Master-Yoda | it ask for root pass | 04:22 |
| TestMAD | i got 2 in mine | 04:22 |
| Master-Yoda | i gave it the right one | 04:22 |
| Master-Yoda | and it continues | 04:22 |
| Master-Yoda | but then it brings me back to the control panel home page | 04:22 |
| gdh | heh, known issue. | 04:22 |
| Master-Yoda | how do i fix this? | 04:23 |
| gdh | open a konsole and 'sudo kcontrol' instead | 04:23 |
| Master-Yoda | is there a way i can enable root login? | 04:23 |
| gdh | it'll probably look weird, but that's pretty irrelevant | 04:23 |
| seth_k | root login sucks, don't use it | 04:23 |
| gdh | Master-Yoda: there is but you don't need it. get over the 'login as root' thing - it'll do you good. | 04:23 |
| seth_k | but if you must, sudo passwd root | 04:23 |
| gdh | nasty stigma from years of laziness | 04:24 |
| Master-Yoda | even if i sudo | 04:24 |
| Master-Yoda | im still in as my user | 04:24 |
| gdh | sudo -i | 04:24 |
| Master-Yoda | and wont let me have root with kde | 04:24 |
| gdh | will give you a full rootshell | 04:24 |
| Master-Yoda | ok gdh, i get many errors when i type that | 04:24 |
| gdh | with environment and all | 04:24 |
| Master-Yoda | like refused bu server conntent conntect to x | 04:24 |
| gdh | Master-Yoda: you're probably root already- you need to 'sudo kcontrol' from a fresh user Konsole. | 04:25 |
| gdh | e.g. try just doing 'xlogo' to ensure you have basic X privs | 04:25 |
| gdh | and then 'sudo xlogo' | 04:25 |
| Master-Yoda | cant open display | 04:26 |
| Master-Yoda | :| | 04:26 |
| Master-Yoda | well that stinks | 04:26 |
| gdh | ok let's get really shitty, then. open a fresh Konsole, and do 'xhost +local:0' | 04:26 |
| gdh | and try again with kcontrol | 04:26 |
| Master-Yoda | oh | 04:26 |
| Master-Yoda | in a new consol | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | zlogo works | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | :P | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | xlogo(* | 04:27 |
| gdh | tada | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | ok i sudo kcontrol | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | and pas | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | and konsole closed | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | meaning wrong pass? | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | oh nvm | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | it didnt close | 04:27 |
| Master-Yoda | :P | 04:27 |
| gdh | :) | 04:28 |
| Master-Yoda | ok users opened | 04:28 |
| Master-Yoda | now what | 04:28 |

| Master-Yoda | how do i enable it | 04:28 |
| Master-Yoda | i just wnat it 4 2 things | 04:28 |

| Master-Yoda | as root 4 that | 04:29 |
| Master-Yoda | i need the network config | 04:29 |
| Master-Yoda | i want the HOLE thing as root | 04:29 |
| Master-Yoda | how do i enable root | 04:29 |
| Master-Yoda | please | 04:29 |
| gdh | urg, use 'sudo passwd' | 04:29 |
| gdh | to set a root password | 04:29 |
| gdh | and on your own head be it, plagues of locusts, etc. | 04:29 |
| Master-Yoda | lol | 04:29 |

| Frank_dot | raining frogs | 04:30 |
| gdh | you'll need to log out and in again, mostlikelt | 04:30 |
| Master-Yoda | k | 04:30 |
| gdh | so the system re-reads the shadow password file | 04:30 |
| Master-Yoda | when i need to disable | 04:30 |
| Master-Yoda | how? | 04:30 |
| gdh | K -> Log Out ? | 04:30 |

| tuxJr_14 | tiago, paste the full text on http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl | 06:18 |

| tiago | ok cool | 06:20 |
| tiago | yeah there all us | 06:21 |
| Frank_dot | there's your problem | 06:21 |
| tiago | should i remove the us all together, replace it with uk or replace it with au? | 06:21 |
| Frank_dot | both should work I think | 06:21 |
| tiago | omg... im starting to see a patern emerging.... terrorists use linux... | 06:22 |

| tiago | is kde 3.4.1 avalible for upgrade from the repositorys? | 06:48 |
| Frank_dot | arcanistherogue: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the "us." in front of archive everywhere | 06:49 |
| Frank_dot | probably that's your problem | 06:49 |
| Frank_dot | tiago: maybe from backports | 06:49 |
| arcanistherogue | the us.archive.ubuntu? | 06:49 |
| arcanistherogue | i remove the us. part | 06:49 |
| arcanistherogue | right? | 06:50 |

| tiago | guys is there any safe way to write to ntfs? | 07:25 |
| tiago | becouse my downloads parition is in ntfs... and i wana use p2p under linux as well... but there is no point if i can only access the downloads under linux | 07:26 |
| tiago | A newly discovered and as-of-yet unpatched security vulnerability in Windows XP could let an attacker remotely crash computers. | 07:28 |
| stibby | is it possible to use samba in that way? | 07:28 |
| tiago | lol | 07:28 |
| kakalto | stibby, that would require something with write support to act as a server, wouldn't it? | 07:30 |
| stibby | it could be possible to do it from computer to computer, but i'm not sure about one hard drive | 07:30 |
| stibby | so probably not | 07:30 |
| kakalto | it's only possible between 2 computers because one runs windows, which has write support for ntfs | 07:35 |
| stibby | i don't think linux currently has ntfs write support | 07:37 |
| monkh4x | here is something that may answer your q http://bisqwit.iki.fi/story/howto/ntfs/ | 07:39 |

| torz | mmmm damn I need some help here. I just reassembled my PC and booted the OS (everything is fine). But Kubuntu tells me it cant initialize sound because /dev/dsp doesnt exist | 01:50 |
| torz | before I took the PC apart everything was running fine... what on earth is this dsp error about? | 01:50 |
| fromoze | have you change your soudcard? | 01:53 |
| torz | nope | 01:53 |
| torz | I'll plug the card out and plug it back | 01:53 |
| torz | damn I hate opening boxes!!! | 01:53 |
| fromoze | you didn't change any piece os hardware? | 01:53 |
| torz | not at all | 01:53 |
| fromoze | in the same pci? | 01:53 |
| === Mez [~Mez@cpc2-lich4-3-0-cust115.brhm.cable.ntl.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| torz | fromoze: I dont think its the same PCI, thats what I'm suspecting too. | 01:53 |
| torz | hence opening up the box which I hate doing | 01:54 |
| fromoze | torz: do a lspci and see if the soundcard is there. | 01:54 |
| torz | yep, I'll do it as soon as the os loads | 01:54 |
| torz | I just swapped the slots then | 01:55 |
| fromoze | you're not on it? | 01:55 |
| torz | nah I have a real computer. Its called a Mac ;~) | 01:55 |
| torz | heh | 01:55 |
| fromoze | well. I've a real deskto, it's called KDE :P | 01:56 |
| torz | haha | 01:56 |
| fromoze | mac won't be too differenf from my amd64 in a year xD | 01:56 |
| torz | I'm very impressed with KDE. | 01:56 |
| buz | save for some eyecandy, i'm more impressed with kde than aqua | 01:57 |
| torz | yeah Im a little upset, my AMD64 mobo arrived DOA. | 01:57 |
| torz | wont even POST with bare minimum, sent it back on thursday | 01:57 |
| fromoze | I'll try to get a ppc mac next year... a little powerbook will be too cool xD | 01:57 |
| buz | my athlon64 died after 3 weeks :( | 01:57 |
| torz | ppc mac? heh nah Intel Macs ;p | 01:57 |
| buz | now i'm on a noisy as crap athlon xp again | 01:57 |
| torz | okay interesting, it aint complaining anymore | 01:58 |
| fromoze | Intel mac will came on June2006... I hope soldes on ppc mac :D | 01:58 |
| fromoze | I supposed it'll be like that | 01:58 |

| fromoze | wich problem you get now? | 02:02 |
| torz | the same | 02:02 |
| torz | I get the same problem in kcontrol | 02:02 |
| torz | when I select the audio device to ALSA it says it doesnt know /dev/dsp | 02:02 |
| torz | same with any options for that matter, even autodetect | 02:02 |
| fromoze | but | 02:03 |
| fromoze | you get sound? | 02:03 |
| fromoze | open a terminal and exec alsamixer | 02:03 |
| torz | no sound | 02:03 |
| fromoze | do you get the same error? what soundcard do you have? | 02:04 |
| torz | mmm the terminal kind of dissapeared! | 02:04 |
| torz | heh | 02:04 |
| torz | mmm this soundcard is something historic | 02:04 |
| torz | it seems to not be appearing in lspci | 02:05 |
| torz | ill try another slot :p | 02:05 |
| fromoze | if it isn't on lspci... it could be son hardware | 02:05 |
| fromoze | problem | 02:06 |
| torz | yeah it could be fried | 02:06 |
| torz | although I doubt it, I'm quite a cautious guy | 02:06 |
| fromoze | may be you need to push more | 02:06 |
| torz | satisfy the lady eh, sure :~) | 02:06 |
| fromoze | may be some rubbish in the pci? | 02:06 |
| torz | ill blow on it then | 02:06 |
| fromoze | if it's an old motherboard the pci can fail :/ I see it before | 02:07 |
| torz | yep this thing is historic! | 02:08 |
| torz | I assembled this machine because the mobo for my new system arrived DOA. | 02:08 |
| torz | this is my router. | 02:08 |
| torz | P3 550MHz | 02:08 |
| fromoze | I see | 02:08 |
| fromoze | Isn't really historic xD | 02:08 |
| torz | heh not quite old school Alpha eh | 02:09 |
| fromoze | I'll try to regenerate an p166 next september ;) | 02:09 |
| torz | ha | 02:09 |
| torz | K6 | 02:09 |
| fromoze | but may be I just bet for a p733 on Cash Converter xD | 02:10 |
| fromoze | Actually we've a k6-2 as router... but the owner let us, then we need something 'new' | 02:11 |
| torz | ha | 02:11 |
| torz | k6 is good enough for softrouter | 02:11 |

| RossH | decisions decisions...fedora, ubuntu, kubuntu | 02:11 |
| fromoze | RossH KUBUNTU! | 02:11 |
| fromoze | xD | 02:11 |
| fromoze | Wich cpu? | 02:11 |
| torz | you didnt take Gentoo into account? | 02:12 |
| fromoze | RossH: I've try in June Suse, Slamd64 and Fedora... after that I return to kubuntu :) | 02:12 |
| torz | I used to use FC, FC2, FC3, then FC4. | 02:12 |
| torz | then I wanted to use something good with KDE so I now run Kubuntu. | 02:13 |
| RossH | I've used suse, slackware, freebsd, kubuntu, ubuntu, fedora, solaris, etc. | 02:13 |
| fromoze | Gentoo is cool! But, you need time to play with the computer... I stop using gentoo because I was always trying bleeding-edge stuff and I needed to study a little more | 02:13 |
| torz | although I could have gone with SuSE, another distro superb with KDE :~) | 02:13 |
| RossH | I'm just worried that kubuntu might not have the community support like ubuntu | 02:14 |
| fromoze | Fedora sucks for KDE :/ | 02:14 |
| torz | yep | 02:14 |
| torz | it does indeed | 02:14 |
| RossH | torz: suse 9.3 pro wouldn't play nice with my nvidia graphics card | 02:14 |
| buz | RossH: most stuff is supplied by ubuntu | 02:14 |
| fromoze | RossH: Kubuntu community is cooler xD | 02:14 |
| torz | Fedora and KDE just doesnt do it | 02:14 |
| fromoze | why not? | 02:14 |
| buz | kde is very well supported by kubuntu | 02:14 |
| RossH | it would install and the screen would just go black... | 02:14 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | RossH, there aren't that many differences, except the graphical interface | 02:14 |
| torz | Fedora is so biased towards Gnome | 02:14 |
| === othernoob [~othernoob@p54A2D404.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| fromoze | I see someone says to uses yast on fedora, and people says it was a stupid option... is better KDE users need gtk-gnome administration apps.. | 02:15 |
| RossH | torz: which is sad...i wish they would have gone with the force instead of the dark side....gnome just doesn't seem....to be honest as good | 02:15 |
| torz | Gnome isnt too bad | 02:15 |
| torz | KDE is just better | 02:15 |
| fromoze | but isn't as good xD | 02:15 |
| RossH | i have never really liked it's layout | 02:15 |
| === Bubbling_Zombie is an XFCE fan | ||
| === venda [~sean@ndn-165-134-250.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| RossH | i just thought KDE has a much nicer layout | 02:16 |
| fromoze | RossH: did you make upgrades against european ftp's on Suse? | 02:16 |
| torz | I used to be a Blackbox/Fluxbox guy but I got over them | 02:17 |
| RossH | fromoze: it would never get that far...I have a suse 9.0 pro cd set right here | 02:17 |
| torz | the obsession only lasted for a month or so | 02:17 |
| RossH | one thing ubuntu needs to work on is its installer *shudder* | 02:17 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | why is that RossH ? | 02:17 |
| RossH | because...it's installer may be all good for the users of linux but for grandma who needs a pretty point and click interface will be disharted | 02:18 |
| torz | the sound server hates me i tell you | 02:18 |
| OculusAquilae | RossH: I like the installer | 02:18 |
| === Bubbling_Zombie too | ||
| fromoze | I was a fvwm-crystal fan with KDE-apps inside... but Ubuntu shows me the nice Gnome and the Nautilus-spatial (i really like it!) and I've been using Gnome for some months.. but I finally come back to KDE once I started to need to work on my computer xD | 02:19 |
| OculusAquilae | it don't needs much time to load usw. | 02:19 |
| torz | apt-get install *whatever* <- how hard is that? heh | 02:19 |
| OculusAquilae | I | 02:19 |
| RossH | I'm talking about the actual install | 02:19 |
| torz | rpm -i package.rpm <- how hard is that :p | 02:19 |
| torz | oh right | 02:19 |
| torz | wait, dont you just put the install CD in and let it do its job??? | 02:19 |
| === OculusAquilae has installed SuSE not long ago and it takes much time to have the installer loaded | ||
| torz | thats what I remember doing | 02:20 |
| === fromoze loves ncurses installer: easy, simple and fast | ||
| RossH | again...you guys need to remember that the idea of ubuntu is to have a system that can be installed and used by anyone | 02:20 |
| Fraeon | It is? | 02:21 |
| othernoob | RossH: so can any other linux distro.. | 02:21 |
| torz | I think its fairly straight forward | 02:21 |
| othernoob | except slackware and gentoo i think | 02:21 |
| fromoze | RossH in ubuntu installer there's an option call: Just let me do! :) | 02:21 |
| Fraeon | I thought it was only for people who know how to make their own programs | 02:21 |
| torz | if you just want to listen to music, word process, and play videos. | 02:21 |
| torz | oh and surfing the net | 02:21 |
| fromoze | Grandme would be happy to get all she need working without uses the mouse or keyboard ;) | 02:21 |
| Fraeon | torz: Well, games too if you don't want to play retail games | 02:21 |
| OculusAquilae | RossH: i don't think that a graphical installer would be simpliere | 02:22 |
| torz | mmmm Wine | 02:22 |
| othernoob | OculusAquilae: you're quite right, just look at the Fedora Core installer | 02:22 |
| === fromoze Real Men Play on the Hex | ||
| torz | I mean installing Kubuntu is just the same as installing Windows imo | 02:22 |

| fromoze | RossH In the next releases it will be a graphical installer, but I tell you'll stay on ncurses one once you need to do more than 3 installations :) | 02:23 |
| RossH | is there any way to install kubuntu on a drive that has a windows partition? The entire drive is a window partition... | 02:24 |

| fromoze | I don't use windows, but many people have win-kubuntu working... | 02:26 |
| othernoob | RossH: you'll have to repartition it | 02:26 |
| fromoze | red_flower I dunno, sorry | 02:26 |

| red_flower | i will ask google | 02:27 |

| buz | i think you can run firefox as kisok no? | 02:27 |
| othernoob | RossH: not neccessarily, partition magic can resize the windows partition. | 02:27 |

| buz | qtparted supposedly can resize it too? | 02:27 |
| othernoob | iirc, yes buz | 02:28 |

| buz | and qtparted is sweet | 02:30 |
| fromoze | if it's there it didn't reconice it | 02:30 |

| jel | thanks mate | 04:09 |
| Mez | other|study, please use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto instead | 04:10 |
| other|study | Mez: does it matter? besides, that's a guide for gnome | 04:11 |
| Mez | other|study, because I've just deleted that one :D | 04:11 |
| other|study | Mez: that may be a good reason ;) | 04:12 |
| other|study | Mez: but how are newbies going to learn linux if everything is graphical? | 04:12 |
| Mez | other|study, and how are you going to get newbies to use it if things arent graphical | 04:13 |
| Mez | if you want a KDE version, use http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/swmgmt.html#h2add | 04:13 |
| mikl | d'oh, I got one those semi-broken versions of X before I saw the topic on #ubuntu :( | 04:13 |
| Mez | lol | 04:13 |
| mikl | yeah, now my keyboard-layouts are blowing in the wind :) | 04:14 |
| other|study | Mez: from your point of view, that kde version should be deleted as well heh | 04:17 |

| TestMAD | hi all | 04:18 |
| Mez | other|study, no, I deleted that version because the guy went against what I'd asked him to do, and I didnt see the point of 2 pages on the wiki, when there was one perfectly good one (that the guy had already worke don) | 04:18 |
| Mez | the aim of the NewUSerGuide is to link to current documentation | 04:19 |
| other|study | we definitely have different opinions... | 04:20 |
| Mez | other|study, well, I know how I want the NUG run :D | 04:21 |
| other|study | instead of that wiki, that documentation on it should come with the installation..if by all means newbies have to be touched with gloves.. | 04:23 |
| uniq | it will i breezy. | 04:24 |
| uniq | http://lnix.net/~froud/ | 04:24 |

| other|study | lol "Graphical Installer: A must have or we're struck" good one.. | 04:27 |
| other|study | yes indeed..colours attract.. | 04:27 |
| other|study | maybe some choice during installation would rather be a "must have or we're struck" | 04:28 |

| other|study | the entire concept of backporting should be worked on as well, because it lacks common sense ;) | 04:32 |
| TestMAD | what you mean by ..if by all means newbies have to be touched with gloves.. | 04:33 |
| other|study | TestMAD: well, how did you interpret it ;) | 04:34 |
| TestMAD | apparently the wrong way | 04:34 |
| TestMAD | heh | 04:34 |
| TestMAD | do the nvidia drivers support sli? | 04:37 |
| TestMAD | i dont think they do..but wanna be sure | 04:37 |
| other|study | TestMAD: i meant, if it's too much asked of a newbie to show some interest and learn something. ie usage of the cli. | 04:37 |
| TestMAD | ok | 04:38 |
| TestMAD | im a newbie and learned some stuff already and ill ive done is install on vmware. | 04:38 |
| TestMAD | gonna do a real install today. | 04:38 |
| TestMAD | but am going to need help | 04:39 |
| other|study | with | 04:39 |
| TestMAD | getting doom3, moh, cod, and some other games to install | 04:39 |
| TestMAD | for the wife and kids | 04:39 |
| TestMAD | and me | 04:39 |
| TestMAD | gonna dual boot for other stuff | 04:39 |
| TestMAD | but i need someone thats been using a linux for a while to help me out from the beginning. | 04:40 |
| other|study | afaik, they're all supported by cedega..more or less.. and there's a linux version of doom3 | 04:40 |
| TestMAD | since im dual booting and limited on hd space | 04:40 |
| other|study | how much hdd? | 04:40 |
| TestMAD | well..there's natives for all of those games i metioned | 04:40 |
| other|study | << i barely play. | 04:41 |
| TestMAD | well. i got an 80g, a 20g and a 12g | 04:41 |
| other|study | and you're limited??? | 04:41 |
| TestMAD | yea. | 04:41 |
| other|study | how? | 04:41 |
| TestMAD | well..i wanna have kubuntu as promary os | 04:41 |
| TestMAD | and dual boot for CS2 Flash stuff and a few games. | 04:42 |
| TestMAD | the rest is all linux stuff | 04:42 |
| other|study | and you're limited with 100gb?? | 04:42 |
| TestMAD | so i have to consider needs for both systems | 04:42 |
| gdh | aren't games like that about 15-20G each? | 04:42 |
| other|study | must be quite a few games ;) | 04:42 |
| TestMAD | also. i need to make sure that i mount a few partitions on boot. | 04:42 |
| TestMAD | specificly my video and audio drives | 04:43 |
| TestMAD | those will be ntfs of course. | 04:43 |
| other|study | of course.. | 04:43 |
| other|study | so you'll only want to have read access | 04:43 |
| TestMAD | im unfortunately still tied to M$ | 04:43 |
| TestMAD | read access is fine. | 04:44 |
| other|study | MS isn't that bad.. | 04:44 |
| TestMAD | no its not. | 04:44 |
| other|study | it's just not that good either ;) | 04:44 |
| TestMAD | but if adobe wised up..i would be very happy | 04:44 |
| TestMAD | and if more games were done in opengl or sdl | 04:44 |
| TestMAD | that would be even better | 04:44 |
| TestMAD | i have no issues with M$ for the most part. | 04:45 |
| TestMAD | but im now in fear of longhorn | 04:45 |
| other|study | why | 04:45 |
| TestMAD | some of the stuff thier implementing. | 04:45 |
| other|study | it's not like you're forced to upgrade to longhorn | 04:45 |

| fromoze | sotyri: you can use samba | 06:14 |
| TestMAD | i was thinking of 20 for kubuntu, then 60 for share, and 20 for xp | 06:14 |
| other|study | TestMAD: and the xp is fat32, the rest ext3 | 06:15 |
| fromoze | or if it's just files, ftp :) | 06:15 |
| seth_k | you don't want /home on a FAT32 partition, because your permissions will get screwed up | 06:15 |

| TestMAD | and ill use it for CS2 | 06:16 |
| jeanluc | photoshop | 06:16 |
| jeanluc | or counter stirke? | 06:16 |
| TestMAD | yea | 06:16 |
| TestMAD | PS | 06:16 |
| jeanluc | :P | 06:16 |
| jeanluc | I use wine for that | 06:16 |
| other|study | TestMAD: 20 GB should be enough then i suppose | 06:16 |
| TestMAD | dont like CS | 06:16 |
| jeanluc | I never really leared to use gimp | 06:16 |
| TestMAD | ok.now then. the data drive. | 06:16 |
| TestMAD | faat32? | 06:17 |
| TestMAD | that way i can share data between linux and xp | 06:17 |
| other|study | TestMAD: you could format the 12gb one as fat32. that way xp would have more and could be shared | 06:17 |
| TestMAD | yea. | 06:19 |
| TestMAD | so give the whole 80 to linux then the 20 and 12 to xp | 06:19 |
| other|study | TestMAD: sounds good. and the 20 and the 12 as fat32 | 06:19 |
| TestMAD | ok. | 06:19 |
| TestMAD | linux does read/write of fat32? | 06:20 |
| other|study | yes, fully supported | 06:20 |
| TestMAD | k..that sounds the way to go then | 06:20 |
| TestMAD | what nvidia drivers for ubunto should i use? | 06:20 |

| TestMAD | well i didnt know if the ubuntu ones or the nvidia 7667 ones were better | 06:21 |
| TestMAD | er..i should say more stable | 06:22 |
| seth_k | oh | 06:22 |
| seth_k | I discourage installing the official nVidia ones, since you can't package-manage them | 06:22 |
| seth_k | but if you have a newer card, they will work better | 06:22 |
| TestMAD | 6600gt | 06:22 |
| seth_k | yeah, the 7667 would give you more fps probably, but I hear they are kind of unstable | 06:23 |
| TestMAD | thats what i heard too | 06:23 |
| seth_k | imo, use hoary drivers now, wait for breezy, which will have the latest and greatest | 06:23 |
| TestMAD | so i wasnt to sure | 06:23 |

| TestMAD | nvidia drivers | 06:25 |
| TestMAD | they dont install | 06:25 |

| Frank_dot | is kde 3.4.1 worth it? any problems? | 07:04 |
| seth_k | none, it's just bugfixes | 07:05 |
| seth_k | imo very worth it, it fixes some nasty issues | 07:05 |
| jjesse | y | 07:05 |
| hussam | Riddell: are you there? | 07:05 |
| Frank_dot | ok great like what? | 07:05 |
| seth_k | especially the one where you can't edit stuff in kcontrol because every time you input the root password, it sends you back to kcontrol home | 07:05 |
| seth_k | also the konqueror crashes | 07:05 |
| hussam | seth_k: are you a kde developer? | 07:06 |
| TestMAD | so what version of kde somes with kubuntu? | 07:06 |
| seth_k | 3.4, TestMAD | 07:06 |
| TestMAD | ahh. | 07:06 |
| seth_k | 3.4.1 is available for supported download from the Kubuntu devs. So you don't have to be afraid of upgrading, it's been tested and is supported. | 07:06 |
| seth_k | hussam: I develop for KDE, but am not a KDE developer :P | 07:07 |
| seth_k | e.g. I work on things that have to do with KDE, but not officially, and not for KDE | 07:08 |
| hussam | seth_k:I'm facing this bug in kde 3.4.1 It was fixed in branch a coupkle of days ago. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106922 | 07:08 |
| hussam | seth_k: can we have the fix for http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106922 for kubuntu's kde 3.4.1? | 07:09 |
| Frank_dot | what package takes care of everything for kde 3.4.1? | 07:09 |
| seth_k | hussam: no fixes will get backported to hoary. Breezy comes out in October and will include that fix (and KDE 3.5) | 07:09 |
| seth_k | Frank_dot: see /topic for the link about KDE 3.4.1, then add the sources found there, and do an upgrade | 07:10 |
| hussam | seth_k: oh so we won't get kde 3.4.2? | 07:10 |
| Frank_dot | seth_k: upgrade, right | 07:10 |
| seth_k | hussam: if there is one, the Kubuntu devs will probably go for it. But if not, you'll have to wait until Breezy. | 07:11 |
| seth_k | hussam: you might ask in #kubuntu-devel where the devs hang out | 07:11 |
| hussam | ok, I thought kde 3.4.1 was supoported with fixes. I should have probably stayed with kde 34.0 then. | 07:12 |
| Riddell | hussam: hi | 07:12 |
| hussam | Riddell: I submitted https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12096 | 07:13 |
| mikl | apt keeps complaining about not beeing able to upgrade my kernel - how do I fix that? | 07:13 |
| hussam | Riddell: It's a dupe of http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106922 | 07:13 |
| hussam | Riddell: but http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106922 has been fixed, can we get this fix for kde 3.4.1 on kubuntu? | 07:14 |
| Riddell | hussam: I'll take a look | 07:14 |
| Riddell | hussam: poke me if I don't get back on it | 07:15 |
| hussam | Riddell: Ok thank you. :) | 07:15 |
| seth_k | Riddell: btw, what's the procedure for applying for editbugs? I've submitted some and confirmed some and patched a couple... wouldn't use it a whole lot, but would be nice to mark the occasional dupe or invalid. | 07:17 |
| Riddell | seth_k: you can confirm but you can't mark as dupe? | 07:18 |
| seth_k | Riddell: that's right | 07:18 |
| Riddell | seth_k: weird. not sure what the procedure is, best ask in ubuntu-devel | 07:18 |

| seth_k | okay, then you should just partition during the install | 07:23 |
| seth_k | choose a manual partition | 07:23 |
| TestMAD | ok. | 07:23 |
| seth_k | however, you should install Windows first | 07:23 |
| TestMAD | ok? | 07:23 |
| LoKiT0 | i got it | 07:24 |
| LoKiT0 | lol | 07:24 |
| seth_k | because Windows doesn't play nice with Linux already on a drive | 07:24 |

| mikl | seth_k: apt goes into an infinite loop :( | 07:24 |
| seth_k | okay, it includes a partitioner too | 07:24 |
| seth_k | so I would wipe the drive with it | 07:24 |
| seth_k | make a 10GB part for Windows | 07:24 |
| mikl | or, it stops after x iterations or so :) | 07:24 |
| seth_k | and maybe 5GB FAT for a share point | 07:25 |
| seth_k | then leave the rest unpartitioned | 07:25 |
| seth_k | then when installing Kubuntu, choose "use unpartitioned space" | 07:25 |
| seth_k | and it will make your swap partition etc. | 07:25 |

| mikl | ah, I thought not :) | 07:30 |
| seth_k | okay, every page i'm pulling up on this error suggests that your root partition has changed addresses, and your fstab hasn't been updated | 07:31 |
| seth_k | are you sure that hda2 is your root partition? | 07:31 |
| mikl | pretty sure, since the system boots with that fstab | 07:31 |
| seth_k | nope, it boots because of /boot/grub/menu.lst | 07:32 |
| seth_k | that's what I thought too | 07:32 |
| seth_k | but apparently you can get away with having the wrong root in fstab | 07:33 |
| seth_k | if your grub settings are right | 07:33 |
