sproingieeh, i'm just making fun of gnome, in-joke03:47
_michaeli do like gnome in a business setting - kde just looks/feels better03:48
konki_michael, so you mean kde is easier or kubuntu is more user friendly than ubuntu?? right??03:48

TestMADoooo...hook it up03:50
TestMADlol03:50
TestMADsudo apt-get install pron03:50
fromozeI think that ubuntu now is more user-friendly than kde because of the network config and sinaptycs.03:50
konkisproingie, a file browser much like the windows explorer... you can view folder on the left hand corner... 03:50
sproingiei find synaptic to be pretty awful03:51
fromozebut KDE... well... KDE rocks xD03:51
sproingiei use aptitude03:51
sproingieit's just curses-based, but it's way more powerful03:51

nmorseLots of new people around eh?08:06
nmorseChannel for everyone using Kubuntu I guess08:06
supernixYes this is the general channel08:06
alakhiaCool! After using gentoo for few months, kubuntu is a welcome change.08:07
supernixThe #ubuntu channel is more of a develper channel08:07
supernixat least that is how they act08:07
epilocheh08:07

nmorseI hated the compiling on Gentoo08:08
axishow do i add Gaim to my kde startup08:08
nmorseA Debian-based distro was a blessing to go back to after that08:08
alakhia5% extra performance not worth the hassle08:09
supernixHmm I never compiled much08:09
supernixnever used Gentoo much either08:09
supernixonce I booted up and saw no GUI on their livecd that was it for their test08:09
alakhiai'm new to debian ... getting used to apt-get08:09
alakhiayeah, their livecd is just to install gentoo, not really use it08:10
axisanybody, anybody? easy question08:10
axishow i can have Gaim automatically start08:11
axisat GUI boot08:11
nmorseLeave it open when you exit session08:11
aseigoif it's running when you quit the session it should restart on its own08:11
nmorseThen when you load that session next time it works08:11
TestMADwhat can i do to keep kubuntu clean..from all the clutter..08:11
nmorseOr you can add a launcher to your .kde/share/Autostart folder08:11
TestMADlike tmp files..orphaned files..cahces08:11
nmorseCron cleans them08:12
nmorseDon't worry about it08:12
axisTestMAD: thx08:12
TestMADaxis: np08:12
nmorseYou know, come to think of it, I don't know exactly what cron does on Kubuntu?08:12
alakhiayeah, I got mail about broken sym links the other day. It is run by cron.daily!08:12
nmorseTime to start looking08:12
TestMADdoes cron run by itself?08:12
axiskubuntu is pretty nice too08:12
TestMADor do i have to run it once to make it do it all the time08:13
alakhiacron runs automatically for you08:13
TestMADand what is slocate?08:13
alakhiait starts up when you boot08:13
axisTestMAD, : its the index of  your filesystem08:13
axisTestMAD, : updatedb updates the index08:13
TestMADdid i really have to run that like the install told me to?08:14
axisTestMAD: so you can find files in CLI with "locate <file>08:14
axisTestMAD: no08:14
axisTestMAD: just "updatedb" manually08:14
axisTestMAD: if you're going to go searching for files08:14
alakhiaI use locate all the time ... much faster than find.08:14
axisor if you  search for files alot with /search or "locate" then maybe you should drop it in cron .. other then that, it's not crucial08:15
axisi use locate as well08:15
axisbut i don't add too many new packages08:15
axisso i don't have to update all the time08:15
axisif i can't find something 1nce, i "updatedb" 08:15
TestMADwhat about pre-linking?08:15
axisif that doesn't find it .. then i'm looking for thr wrong file08:15
axisno clu08:16
axis[=08:16
gigaclonis there a way to disable Konq for web-browsing?08:16
alakhiaI used prelinking with gentoo08:16
axisgigaclon, : what do you want to use?08:16
alakhiaI suppose apt-get install prelink should install it08:16
gigaclonfirefox08:16
gigaclonalready have it08:16
alakhiathen, to use, you need to setup a conf file08:16
axisgigaclon, : well in firefox, there has to be an option that says  "make firefox your default browser"08:16
axisgigaclon, : and i'm sure koqueror has the same.. you find mozilla's, i'll find konq's 08:17
alakhiatry looking here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/prelink-howto.xml08:17
alakhiathat's what I used on gentoo08:17
alakhiaIt can't be all that different on kubuntu08:17
alakhiaIt did make kde startup a bit faster08:18
TestMADubuntu has a pre-link how to..but i saw somewhere that this could lead to disaster08:18
axisgigaclon: i couldn't find it in konqueror08:18
alakhiareally ... I thought prelinking was harmless08:18
axisgigaclon: but if you find it in mozilla, that should work fine08:18
aseigogigaclon: go into the control panels, kde components, component chooser08:19
alakhiait either works or the system reverts to manually finding the symbols08:19
axisgigaclon, : also in firefox, go to "edit" -Preferences- and right there should be the "default browser" tab08:19
alakhiaso, in the worst case, it does nothing08:19
alakhiain the best case, it makes linking of dso's faster08:20
alakhiaFrom gentoo web page: Warning: It has been observed that if you are low on disk space and you prelink your entire system then there is a possibility that your binaries may be truncated. The result being a b0rked system.08:21
gigaclonit actually says borked?08:22

axisq165st708 was queen stree 165, apt 708 .. where my buddy used to live ! hahaha08:27
alakhiaI also recycle them ... makes is easier if you just have 5 passwords instead of 5008:27

Choubakaa guy I know on debian may be including Xglx in his livecd. 10:29
ChoubakaThat's supposed to be composite done right.10:29
ChoubakaAt least from what he tells me it's also fast.10:30
guillemChoubaka: I guess there still there is room for improvement with current approach10:30
ChoubakaIf they can improve. :/10:30
guillemChoubaka: most of the performance problem is at the driver side, IMHO10:31
ChoubakaNope.10:31
ChoubakaNot with composite at least.10:31
nikkiafrom what i can see, Xglx is less reliable than composite :O10:32
ChoubakaAFAIK the standards and conventions and specifications and whatever of X are not very flexible10:32
Choubakanikkia: well, it's still beta.10:32
nikkiaChoubaka: the real problem is, that people don't follow the standards and conventions of X :)10:32
ChoubakaThat's new.10:32
ChoubakaI've only heard developers cursing how much X sucks.10:33
nikkiaChoubaka: for example, everyone does widgets using pixmaps and direct rendering10:33
nikkiaas such, widgets with Gtk, Qt, etc are SLOW10:33
Choubakacan you do them some other way then?10:33
ChoubakaI thought X offered you no options.10:33
nikkiathe X development kit was designed with pluggable widgets, noone except motif and Xaw has ever used it10:33
nikkia(if Qt and Gtk had, there wouldn't really be any reason for things like gtk-qtengine10:34
Choubakahmm.10:34
nikkiaChoubaka: this problem is compounded by the fact that direct pixmap rendering is about the slowest thing you can do in X :/10:35
=== GoodSpeed [~barlas@137.101.136.177] has joined #kubuntu
ChoubakaIf those pluggable things are so good, why didn't GTK and QT use them? :/10:35
nikkiai won't pretend, however, that the Xlib widget routines are easy to use10:35
nikkiaChoubaka: they're complex, overly hard to develop with, etc, the temptation of a beginning X developer is 'just use pixmaps, its easier and faster to get working'10:36
ChoubakaAh. hah.10:36
ChoubakaWell, no wonder then :/10:36
nikkiaChoubaka: to use them, in something like a DE, you *really* need a proper design and engineering strategy10:36
buzstill compiling10:36
Choubaka"We have a better solution, but it's so hard to use you'll want to use the bad solution"10:37
guillemnikkia: however, as far as I can tell, Xlib routines would not allow you to do smooth font rendereing...10:37
nikkiaChoubaka: motif might be ugly, but it was at least engineered10:37
Choubakayeah. :P10:37
ChoubakaBut ugly is bad.10:37
Choubaka:P10:37
nikkiaguillem: with the plain routines, no, you couldn't, but then, when Qt and Gtk were created, there was no way to do it at all10:37
nikkiaguillem: you could still argue that fixing Xlib to support better font technologies would have been better than what has happened10:38
ChoubakaI don't really know much about these things.10:38
guillemnikkia: I'm a motif programmer and all tha I can say is  that is pain difficult to do "dynamic" GUIs. Something that does not happen with Qt or GTK. I know that has little to do with drawing.10:38
nikkiaChoubaka: its only ugly because its as old as windows 3.0 and designed with windows 3.0's look and feel in mind10:39
Choubakaheh.10:39
nikkiaguillem: that's really a limitation of the motif SDK, most of the 3rd party X SDKs of that era were similarly event bound10:39
ChoubakaI doubt that guy would be hyping Xglx if it really weren't good.10:39
nikkiaguillem: its near impossible to do dynamic UIs in Xview too, which was motif's comptemporary10:39
nikkiacontemporary, even10:39
ChoubakaBut I don't even use a linux desktop anymore. ;P10:40
nikkiaChoubaka: remember, MS designed the motif look and feel10:40
guillemnikkia: I am not so sure that what has happened is so bad afterall. In my new computer X11 flies with shadows et al.10:40
nikkiaChoubaka: a major design goal for motif was to unify the look and feel of unix and windows systems10:40
ChoubakaWell, windows is freaking ugly too.10:40
Choubakaso yeah, they managed pretty well10:41
Choubaka(w2k is)10:41
Choubakahm10:41
Choubakaenter.10:41
Choubakadamn. 10:41
nikkiaguillem: the problem is, it all falls apart if you try to do cross-network displays10:41
ChoubakaI was about to say w2k is the least ugly windows. 10:41
nikkiaguillem: there is a long list of Gtk and Qt apps that simply do not run across a remote X display10:42
=== _user01 [~user01@222.124.53.99] has joined #kubuntu
nikkiausing pixmaps works fine locally, but it has some significanty gotchas if the X display is not local10:42
guillemnikkia: which ones? I do constantly remote X displaying of Gtk apps (evolution, whole gnome desktop, ...) and the only thing it does not work properly is video10:43

=== axis_zombocom is now known as axis^zzz
nikkiaguillem: and 'most of them' if you don't use the same visuals as provided by the local server10:44
ChoubakaI'm using OS X now. It shouldn't take linux too long for them to be able to offer a similar desktop experience. :)10:44
guillemnikkia: besides, pixmaps can reside at the server side, and IMHO translucency works fine if composite manager is local-10:44
nikkiaChoubaka: sadly, i think it will10:44
ChoubakaHmm...10:45
nikkiaChoubaka: i don't think the X architecture is really suited to trying to provide the same features as OS X10:45
guillemnikkia: sadly i think it will even take longer to OS-X be network transparent.10:45
nikkiaguillem: its already network transparent, just not well known about10:45
Choubaka3d-hardware accelerated desktops are not far away.10:46
nikkiamostly because you have to PAY to get the network transparent stufff10:46
ChoubakaThough I do not know how you define "not far away"10:46
ChoubakaBut I'm happy using this powerbook until I can afford a new desktop machine.10:47
guillemnikkia: but real network transparency or something like improved vnc??10:47
nikkiaguillem: there are 2 ways of doing it on OS X10:48
nikkiaone is basically 'like vnc/rdp'10:48
ChoubakaIt'll run linux then, and I'll see how it works :)10:48
nikkiathe other is to have your cocoa objects reside on the desktop, and the rest of the code run on the server10:48
nikkiabecause Cocoa is designed to allow objects to exist over a network connection, the second way works fine, perhaps even better than X style, as your widgets locally10:49
guillemnikkia: the first one is slower than X provided you have local network bandwidth.  The second one limits you to current widgets... what happens with custom ones?10:50
nikkiaguillem: custom widgets should work fine, assuming they're derived in a proper OO way10:50
guillemnikkia: didn't know about that.10:51

PieD1- the gtk icons look ugly ! Is there a package including KDE icons for OOo 1.1 ?01:20

PieD(Since neither OpenOffice 2 nor OpenOffice 1.1.5 is released, it is "impossible" to use KOffice : the readers for OASIS documents aren't installable by everybody)01:23
painesPieD: you could install a gtk-engines2-germaik or qrmixmap theem01:25

teprrrhmm, can I get full path with ps?06:49
poutineDon't you all see a problem with a fact that ubuntu/kubuntu rely on malware/virus writers not to be smart enough to do sudo su?06:49
poutinesudo bash whatever06:51
pv_This is no different from using a sniffed root password.06:51
poutinesniffed from what?06:51
pv_By the malware, of course.06:52
poutineif you're transmitting your root password over plaintext, you deserve to be rooted06:52
poutinepv_: well it needs "transmitted" to be sniffed06:52
poutineand that's why we have ssh206:52
pv_No, but if you have malware running on your machine, and log in with e.g. "su", it can (at least try) to sniff the password.06:52
poutinenope06:52
poutineit'd require root privs to do that06:53
pv_Not necessarily. It can hook a keyboard listener to X.06:53
poutineor... it *could* modify your PATH env to include their version of su before yours06:53
poutineThere's been a separation of privileges (and in most smart cases, passwords) in UNIX, UNIX-like, and UNIX derived systems for decades for a reason06:54
pv_Yes, and sudo is not really different from "su", apart from the fact that it can be configured to use the user password.06:55
pv_And not every user is treated as "admin" by sudo.06:55
|rockinnerd|Because "Failed to execute gpg: Broken pipe", you may need to select different mail options.06:55

poutinepv_: well, essentially by introducing sudo, you're introducing more unnecessary software into the loop and more points of failure06:57
poutinelinux already has an owner/group/user ACL system, and a suid system06:58
pv_One point of failure, actually, and I do not think it is much worse than letting an user run "su".06:59
pv_Of course, writing completely safe sudoers file can be difficult.07:00

apokryphosit does; I think it's under Edit or something11:23
dgtlapokryphos: ok... do i need to change anything?11:23
apokryphosdgtl: if you don't have the Universe repository enabled, you will have to by editing /etc/apt/sources.list See the kudos guide for exactly what to do11:23

apokryphosBreezy on one computer, yeah. It's a week old version though, apparently when very few things were broken11:31
_StarScreamapokryphos: ah crap....X is working ..but i got no kdm...can't find xinit and startx seems absent too11:36
apokryphos_StarScream: you shouldn't be running it :P11:37
apokryphosThey've had X-related problems for some time in breezy11:37
apokryphosI think they might intentionally leave them to stop normal users using it yet ;-)11:38
_StarScreamapokryphos: yeh i know..but they wouldn't put 2.6.12 in hoary..and i wanted my ibook to sleep11:38
ralph1Does anyone know where I can download Kmymoney2 version 0.7.3 or 0.7.4?  The version in universe is 0.6.4. My data files were made with version 0.7.3.11:39
_StarScreambut then 2.6.12 didn't actually get that either11:39
_StarScreamralph1: is kmymoney good? i've been meaning to try it11:40
ralph1_StarScream: Yes it is very good, good importing from Quicken and Gnucash. Only features missing is budgeting and some printing stuff which are schedualed for version 1.0. It is under heavy development, and developers are very helpful.11:42
=== Heart_ [~jzdgc@p549C3761.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu
_StarScreamralph1: excelent. will have to give it a go then. I find gnucash a bit too complex.11:43
_StarScreamand its gtk1 which is just horrible11:43
ralph1_StarScream: Latest version is 0.7.4 which is close to the 0.8 version they are working mostly bug fixes and documentation now.11:45
apokryphosYou'll need to compile if it's not in the repositories11:46
gigaclonhow do i take screenshots?11:47
matsimport 11:48
apokryphosgigaclon: alt + F2 -> ksnapshot11:48
_StarScreamralph1: what functions is it missing from say quicken? 11:49
_StarScreamralph1: aside from budgeting and printing..anything else11:51

ralph1_StarScream: Have not used Quicken in a very long time. But from the devel list, Printing is number one area, only reports have printing enabled, if your on-line banking uses a secure server between you and the bank you are out of luck, budgeting is still missing schedualed for version 1.0 or latter,  qif and ofx imports pretty much work out of box, if you are in Germany HBCI is there but takes extra dependencies, same guy who did 11:56
ralph1_StarScream: Qif and Ofx import might take some fideling with import filters because of wide variance in the standards if you can call it a standard. Developers are very helpful thou.11:58
