| testmad | then i edited the fstab in console..and just saved and it was all werkin normal again.. | 05:05 |
| testmad | its like it just trashed the files or somethin..i dunno | 05:05 |
| pax | you don't need to edit xorg to have transparency with apps that supports it? | 05:05 |
| testmad | umm..i had to add renderaccel to vid card device to speed it up..cus it was slower that snails after i turned on transparency. | 05:05 |
| === claydoh [~claydoh@65.99.186.134] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| apokryphos | nikkia: hey. This is definitely the latest I've woken up in... ages. | 05:48 |
| apokryphos | Repetitive night-shifts are intensive 8) | 05:48 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: how are you today? :) | 05:48 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: about 2 hours after talking to you about bulldog yesterday, my order switched to 'installing... your line will be connected on 29/7/2005' | 05:48 |
| apokryphos | add 7 days to that, and you'll be alright | 05:49 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | how can i install new themes from the control centre? | 05:49 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: heh, we'll see | 05:49 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: what themes? Styles? | 05:49 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: just hope they remember to send me the modem :P | 05:49 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | yes | 05:49 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: oh, you applied for it? Bad thing about us is that we got them just before they made their prices cheap, heh | 05:50 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: nope; you will need to compile from source | 05:50 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i don't have any modem anyway, so i needed one | 05:50 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | in gnome i could just point the package | 05:50 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: it was more expensive than itcould have been, but still | 05:50 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | :( | 05:50 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: is it a router they give? | 05:50 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: by default, you get a usb modem for free, for 50 you can have a ethernet modem, for 75 or something, you can have a router | 05:51 |
| taiga | hello | 05:51 |
| nikkia | i have a router, but no DSL modem, so i went with the ethernet modem | 05:51 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: you can do that for icons etc, not styles though. I think they're going to integrate khotnewstuff soon, which means you'll be able to download and install from kcontrol | 05:51 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | oh good ;) | 05:51 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | and wot about Theme Manager? | 05:51 |

| nikkia | heh | 05:52 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | can i install by pointing the package? | 05:52 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i need a new router, tbh anyway | 05:52 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: my linksys wlan+router is needing a reboot every 4-5 hours :/ | 05:53 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: my one is dodgy; but 99% ok. | 05:53 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: install what, though? Theme manager handles several things | 05:53 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: eek | 05:53 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | lets say i downloaded a whole theme from kde-look.org | 05:53 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | will the theme manager install it that way? | 05:54 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: not as bad as normal modem, as I recall; NTL would disconnect us every 2 hours | 05:54 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i'm stiill bulding LFS so bear with my terrible 'typing' and slowness :P | 05:54 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: oh, don't actually know how that works. I haven't used it; check the howtos on kdelook.org | 05:54 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: heh, no worries. How's that going? | 05:55 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | okies 10x | 05:55 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: getting near the end | 05:55 |
| nikkia | and my fine typing there means that readline must have finished building | 05:55 |

| LuNaTiK^GuY | amarok is soooo coool :) | 06:00 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | i like ;) | 06:00 |
| taiga | little question regarding breezy: is it safe upgrading from 5.04? I'm not quite sure how complete the gcc resp. g++ transition is. Seems to be complete for KDE but how about other c++ apps? any major annoyances preventing someone using it on production systems? :) | 06:00 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: I know so little about vmware it would be embarrasing for me to comment :| | 06:01 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: sure is; new versions got a lot more cool features, too. taiga: it's not safe, no. | 06:01 |
| buz | no its not safe | 06:01 |
| buz | it's not stable at all | 06:01 |
| taiga | ah, I see. | 06:02 |
| buz | if you dont want to develop on it | 06:02 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | i dont mind missing some features for safety :) | 06:02 |
| buz | wait until the release candidate, at least | 06:02 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | i'm not a guru...i better wait ;) | 06:02 |
| taiga | what are the major quirks? | 06:02 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: wasn't really saying it to make you upgrade ;-). Just to let you know... there's other good stuff in store | 06:02 |

| nikkia | ok, thats quite weird | 06:03 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: my keyboard's batteries just died mid-writing vimrc for my LFS... | 06:03 |
| taiga | apokryphos: okey, that's not ideal. ;) | 06:04 |
| nikkia | in the process, it send 20 'r's in the middle of 'set background=dark' | 06:04 |
| apokryphos | haha. That's the worst thing about these cordless keyboards and mouses | 06:04 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the weird part is, when i put the new batteries in, the first thing the keyboard did, was send all of the keypresses i'd tried before i realised the batteries died | 06:04 |
| apokryphos | the charger on the mouse used to be really great but it's been dying out quicker recently | 06:04 |
| apokryphos | Sounds like a superkeyboard300xzillion | 06:05 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | i mite try linux on a laptop (once i buy one).....wots better on battery consumption..Linux or Win? | 06:05 |
| nikkia | old batteries are recharging now :P | 06:05 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | can i get specific programs to be seen in their respective virtual desktop? | 06:06 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: erm, given how much i type, i wouldn't complain too much about hating batteries in cordless keyboards | 06:07 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | coz although i use different desktops.....the KDE bar shows all my proggies :( | 06:07 |
| nikkia | they lasted exactly 8 months | 06:07 |
| nikkia | (to the day) | 06:07 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: right-click on panel -> Taskbar -> show windows from all desktops | 06:08 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: ours was a lot less than that, but pretty good the first time. It's probably down to the fact that we just have really tacky batteries in it now | 06:08 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | apokryphos: i'm not getting it | 06:09 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i *only* use high-power NiMh | 06:09 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | do i go in "Configure Panel" | 06:09 |
| taiga | bbl. thanks for the hints. | 06:09 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the ones in the keyboard are 2000mAH, the ones in the mouse, 2400mAH | 06:09 |
| apokryphos | LuNaTiK^GuY: heh, missed that step -- yes, you do. | 06:09 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: ooOOoo | 06:10 |
| apokryphos | heh | 06:10 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | apokryphos: thanks mate ;) | 06:10 |
| apokryphos | we have "powercell" -- "super extra heavy duty" | 06:10 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: that probably translates to 1200mAH :P | 06:10 |
| apokryphos | love the expletives -- "super extra" | 06:11 |
| nikkia | normal (and i use that term loosely, since noone has sold 'normal' AA batteries in a decade) AA are 900mAH | 06:11 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | wots more economical on laptop batteries, Linux or Win? | 06:11 |
| nikkia | LuNaTiK^GuY: depends on what you do :) | 06:11 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | nikkia: example? | 06:11 |
| nikkia | wtf runs a laptop on batteries enough to care these days, tho ? | 06:12 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | i do :) | 06:12 |
| nikkia | LuNaTiK^GuY: if you use X/KDE then there's not going to be much difference | 06:12 |
| nikkia | windows *may* perform better if linux doesn't support your CPU's frequency scaling, which it probably doesn't :) | 06:12 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | i mite get an AMD Turion | 06:13 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | :S | 06:13 |
| nikkia | also, there's the fact that linux support on laptops is never really great, too much proprietary hardware | 06:14 |
| nikkia | NOOOooooo | 06:15 |
| nikkia | vmware just crashed | 06:15 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | hmmmmmmmm.......i really would like to keep Linux all around.....use it full-time for a while to get used ot it | 06:16 |
| LuNaTiK^GuY | when i sec Volume to maximum...sound is distorted...when i reduce it a little (kmix) its ok | 06:18 |

| brk3 | should be there | 08:41 |

| brk3 | ya but i would advise installing the one you were going to | 08:47 |
| silverblade | i dunno which one it was... | 08:47 |
| brk3 | the one in the respitories make you install loads of unnecessary gnome libs | 08:48 |

| brk3 | ya | 08:50 |
| brk3 | but in kubuntu its in the respitories so it sets it up nicely for you | 08:50 |

| silverblade | im just coming over from Fedora so just wanted to see what it was like | 08:50 |
| brk3 | i tried fedora once and hated it | 08:51 |
| brk3 | kubuntu is def the best ive ever had :) | 08:51 |
| sproingie | fedora's not too bad, but it has no upgrade paths | 08:51 |
| silverblade | i dont mind it... using it on my desktop. a bit bloated and can be slow | 08:51 |
| sproingie | you're expected to just reinstall to upgrade to a new FC version | 08:51 |
| silverblade | i just do "yum update" | 08:51 |
| sproingie | it will eventually fall out of date | 08:52 |
| sproingie | they have no systemwide upgrade path, and some things wont be updated | 08:52 |
| brk3 | it has no config tools and is really unpolished | 08:52 |
| silverblade | i installed kde 3.4 manually | 08:52 |
| silverblade | it has config tools... they just seem basic | 08:52 |
| brk3 | basic | 08:52 |
| sproingie | polished is the one thing i'd call fedora ... tho it's lost some in kde lately | 08:52 |
| brk3 | they suck | 08:52 |
| silverblade | i cant stand kde's default look | 08:53 |
| sproingie | in fedora? | 08:53 |
| silverblade | in any distro | 08:53 |
| brk3 | although kynaptic is nothing to shout about :p | 08:53 |
| brk3 | yet | 08:53 |
| brk3 | sproingie: when i tried it it had every single prog crammed into the menus | 08:53 |
| silverblade | esp. fedora | 08:53 |
| sproingie | i like plastik. i hate garish eye-candy | 08:53 |
| brk3 | lipstik | 08:54 |
| sproingie | i think kubuntu uses something more like lipstik by default. it's kind of hodgepodge | 08:54 |
| sproingie | lipstik doesnt even have consist gradients. kinda like XP that way | 08:54 |

| hussam | One more question, you also mention in the thread that kde 3.4.2 will make it to backports. Since kde 3.4.2 is set for a week or so from now and I think it fixes http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106922 , I also wanted to ask if we will be seeing a kde 3.4.2 backport like in kde 3.4.1. | 09:42 |

| calimatt | Hi all.. I'm having problems with wireless Internet in Kubuntu.. I had made it work using the command 'iwconfig ath0 essid DSLWAP'. but now I can't find ath0 | 11:23 |
| sproingie | nikkia: well solaris tar has no decompress option at all | 11:23 |
| sproingie | it's actually -z vs -j | 11:23 |
| sproingie | GNU tar had a limit on path length | 11:24 |
| sproingie | if it exceeded it, it would just untar things into the current dir | 11:24 |
| sproingie | gnu tar also couldn't handle largefiles, solaris could | 11:24 |
| sproingie | i think that's all been fixed now | 11:24 |
| calimatt | when I used to type iwconfig as root, I'd get a device 'ath0' that has wireless extensions, and now when I type iwconfig 'ath0' no longer shows up.. and non of the other devices have wireless extensions | 11:25 |
| sproingie | i think the compression situation in unix land is shameful, that any program should have to know about compression | 11:25 |

| calimatt | can anybody help me? | 11:26 |
| calimatt | I really need to get online | 11:26 |
| nikkia | now its -j, and if you do -y, it says 'this is deprecated, use -j' | 11:27 |
| nikkia | ah, -I does the same thing | 11:27 |
| nikkia | but suggests -T as an alternative to -j | 11:27 |
| nikkia | now i need to know what -T does | 11:27 |
| nikkia | buh? | 11:27 |
| nikkia | -T does nothing like what -j does | 11:27 |
| nikkia | anyway... gdh, i also wish it'd detect .gz or .bz2 automatically | 11:27 |
| gdh | nikkia: It seems an obvious feature... | 11:28 |
| nikkia | gdh, IMO, -z should be a generic 'decompress' | 11:28 |
| gdh | nikkia: But I expect a small war would break out if it were suggested. | 11:28 |
| gdh | nikkia: 'Do what I said, not what you think I meant' etc. | 11:28 |
| nikkia | gdh, and code to detect compression type, (compress, gzip, bzip2, ???) shoudl be added | 11:28 |

| calimatt | how do I make my wireless internet work again.. I mean.. it was working.. then I restarted my computer.. and suddenly i twon't work | 11:28 |
| sproingie | there should be a libcompress that handles every major format | 11:29 |
| nikkia | sooner or later, someone is going to invent another compression type, and tar will be *(&*(ed cos they'll have run out of characters :P | 11:29 |
| sproingie | lzh, lzw, lz77, bzip2, rle, deflate, etc | 11:29 |
| gdh | nikkia: 7-Zip already exists :) | 11:29 |
| gdh | (the reason for which escapes me entirely) | 11:29 |
| sproingie | libz should just deal with every format | 11:29 |
| _matt__ | anyone know how i can get konqeror to keep opening in details view | 11:29 |
| nikkia | of course, if its a format GNU hates, which it probably will, cos they're like that, it'll be --decompress-this-incredibly-annoying-format-that-we-don't-like-so-we-created-only-long-options | 11:29 |
| _matt__ | and not have to set it each time | 11:30 |
| nikkia | (and yes, the ' will be part of it, just to trip newbies up!) | 11:30 |
| gdh | don\'t , yes :) | 11:30 |
| sproingie | nikkia: and of course it will only be documented on the info page, since man pages are for dirty plebes | 11:30 |

| sproingie | otherwise yeah, what's the point | 11:33 |
| gdh | nikkia: I'd think if you had /that/ mission-critical an app, and didn't have any staff who could knock together a few lines of perl/bash to convert... then you have /much/ bigger problems :) | 11:33 |
| nikkia | gdh, indeed | 11:34 |
| nikkia | actually, i shouldn't gloat/laugh | 11:34 |
| sproingie | actually i'm kind of impressed at the uptime of a network that has 3 year old leases | 11:34 |
| nikkia | i know one of our customers uses indefinite dhcp leases on their betting terminals, and the whole system would fall over if the leases were wiped | 11:34 |
| gdh | :) | 11:34 |
| sproingie | there's nothing wrong with permanent mac-to-ip mappings in dhcp | 11:35 |
| gdh | I tied the MAC addresses to specific IPs. diskless workstation so there's nowhere to store a static IP :) | 11:35 |
| nikkia | (it'd come back up with each terminal being rebooted, but thats not really the point, even though people that run the terminals reboot them daily) | 11:35 |
| sproingie | since you're then using it to assign nameserver addresses and so on | 11:35 |
| sproingie | or for dickless stations, right | 11:35 |
| nikkia | sproingie: wouldn't arp be a better solution ? | 11:35 |

| nikkia | sproingie: i can't remember the relationship between AOL and Apple, but there was one, it was something like apple were using the name 'america online' before qlink changed name, and qlink bought the name from them, or something weird like that | 11:43 |
| sproingie | hm, there's no record of it | 11:44 |
| sproingie | it was originally Control Video, online gaming for the atari 2600 | 11:44 |
| sproingie | steve case changed 'em to cater to the c64 and called it quantumlink | 11:45 |
| sproingie | aha | 11:45 |
| sproingie | AOL was qlink's service for apple users | 11:45 |
| sproingie | QCS was the parent company, qlink was for c64's, aol was for macs | 11:45 |

| gdh | Ah ha, today is not a good day to dist-upgrade from hoary to breezy :) | 11:50 |
| gdh | "The following packages will be REMOVED:" <list of basically everything starting with 'k'> | 11:50 |
| sproingie | today's episode of breezy street is NOT brought to you by the letter k | 11:51 |
| gdh | I'll... give that one a miss for a week :) tbh I thought we were being encouraged to upgrade now and help iron out the bugs... | 11:51 |
| gdh | well.. I found one! ;) | 11:51 |

| fred | hello, anyone running Vmware5.0 under Kubuntu? | 11:56 |
| nikkia | yes | 11:57 |
| TestMAD | that must suck | 11:58 |
| nikkia | testmad, ? | 11:58 |
| fred | yes? | 11:58 |
| TestMAD | vmware.. | 11:58 |
| TestMAD | not that much if running linux. | 11:58 |
| TestMAD | but if running windows..it has to be bad | 11:59 |
| nikkia | testmad, vmware 5 is pretty good | 11:59 |
| nikkia | even does Direct3D now | 11:59 |
| TestMAD | i know..i have it.. | 11:59 |

| fred | vmware IS very good to get around Windows-depending office work | 12:00 |
| TestMAD | i was thinking of the l;inux version..but everyone says use cedega..or qemu and kqemu | 12:00 |
| TestMAD | it would be used for games as well,,not just my grfx apps | 12:00 |
| gdh | I've never had any luck with qemu yet.. tried win98/2k/xp ISOs :/ | 12:00 |
| fred | nikkia, are you running Vmware5.0 under Kubuntu w/o any issues at all? | 12:00 |
| nikkia | fred, i wouldn't say 'without any issues', but without any major ones | 12:01 |
| gdh | I have VMWare 4.1 for Kubuntu, and it runs OK. | 12:01 |
| gdh | Interestingly, sometimes when I start it, it will just kill the current X session | 12:01 |
| gdh | and that's *annoying*. | 12:01 |
| fred | nikkia, okay... the thing is that it has worked completely fine for me under RedHat, SuSE, Mandrake and even under Ubuntu | 12:01 |
