ZugwrackHey there...I assume there is just a 64bit available using Ubuntu? A Kubuntu ver?12:10
LuNaTiK^GuYy is kwin-baghira not in my theme lists in control centre?12:11
ZugwrackSorry..I meant there is a 64bit version for ubuntulinux..what about kubuntu?12:11
LuNaTiK^GuYi'm not sure there is...but u can always install ubuntu and then do "sudo apt-get install kde-desktop" :)12:11
ZugwrackLuNaTiK^Guy: Ok thanks...I figured as much..but if there were two iso's then why not just go with kubuntu...heh12:13

Mose`smth like this09:00

Mose`where to get those libz?09:00
insanekanehmm ..09:02
insanekaneok .. it depends ..09:02
insanekaneMose`: you need to tell me which lib specifically09:02
insanekaneMose`: if you can't tell me at present ..09:02
insanekanethen what you can do is search for the offending lib something like this ..09:03
insanekanefor e.g.09:03
insanekanesuppose the lib is libatk09:03
insanekanethen, you need to do ..09:03
insanekanesudo apt-cache search libatk09:03
insanekaneit will give you a few lines as output09:03
Mose`mhm09:04
insanekanelook for libatk_xxx-dev (where xxx is some specific library version) ... the dev means the development headers etc (needed for ./configure and make)09:04
insanekanethen, once you have the specific package name09:04
insanekaneyou do09:04
insanekanesudo apt-get install libatk1.0-009:05
insanekanesudo apt-get install libatk1.0-0-dev09:05
insanekanesudo apt-get install libatk1.0-0-dev <- this is the correct one09:05
insanekaneafter you have the development headers, then you are set for ./configure09:05
Mose`ok, i'll try it09:05
insanekaneMose`: i have another question for you: why do u want to compile it ?09:05
Mose`you mean what app?09:06
insanekaneMose`: did you try looking if the appropriate package is already available in the Kubuntu repos ?09:06

fromozejcoxon, try kmixer to configure sound outputs11:53
jcoxonfromoze: yeah, i've turned everything up11:53
nikkiajcoxon: that almost sounds like its playing to the wrong output11:54
nikkiathe 'faint music' would be crosstalk between the sound cards outputs11:55
jcoxonnikkia: so check which plug the speakers are connected to?11:56
nikkiaas you probably know, modern AC97 based cards generally support reconfigurable output groups for surround, if alsa is directing its output to the 'rear' speakers, which is probably the line-in socket, then you'd get something like what you describe11:56
nikkiajcoxon: yes, and no....11:56
jcoxonnikkia: okay i understand11:56
nikkiajcoxon: it sounds, from your cd player comment, that the speakers are plugged in the right socket (the green one), so you might want to check that alsa is routing audio to the right speakers11:56
jcoxonmy case has speaker ports at the front as well11:57

nikkiaapokryphos: the ability to define up/pre-up/down/post-down scripts is worth it, IMO12:33
nikkiaapokryphos: its far more SysV like than the old way12:33
nikkiaespecially if you define stuff using the .d directories12:35

apokryphosfor a great package system you need a lot of people, but Linspire's not *that* popular, is it?12:41

thoreauputicnikkia: well, i'm no guru, and I find the docs opaque12:45

nikkiai use 12 :P12:57
thoreauputicnikkia: you can do that with the "fluxter" pager too, although with scroll-wheel desktop changing I don't use it much12:57
apokryphos12 -- yeouch. Just what do you do?12:58
apokryphosI have four but it's a rare case that more than 2 are occupied these days12:58
thoreauputicmultiple desktops are great :)12:58
nikkiaapokryphos: one gets konsole + misc, one gets eclipse, another gets firefox, another gets gimp, another gets thunderbird, and so on12:58
apokryphosnikkia: not a kontact user? ;-)12:59
nikkiaapokryphos: i was using 9, which was just about useful, but i occasional ran into situations where i needed 2-3 gimp screens12:59

AnHudoes someone know, why the package repo of koffice 1.4.1 doesn't work?01:02
nikkiaapokryphos: make sure you arrange them 4x3 in the pager, the default 6x2 takes too much space01:02
AnHuThere are others, too?01:02
apokryphosnikkia: haha, it just looks like a calender01:02
nikkiaapokryphos: 12 arranged as 4x3 is real nice...01:02
nikkiaapokryphos: since you can access them with Ctrl-F1 to Ctrl-F12, and the function keys are in groups of 4, so each group corresponds to a row on the pager :)01:03

=== ztonzy was up very early today
nikkiaahhh, who was asking about alt-tab behaviour yesterday ?01:06
nikkiaits in 'configure window behaviour/focus'01:07
nikkia(of all places)01:07
nikkiaah, wait, no its not01:07
apokryphoswhat, to focus the window when alt-tabbing?01:07
nikkiayes it is, weird01:07
nikkiaapokryphos: no the alt-tab list01:08
thoreauputicIf I want to change that stuff I just edit ~/.fluxbox/keys and add/change a line or two01:08
nikkiathe focus page also has 'navigation', and setting traverse all desktops enables/disables alt-tab between all apps01:08
nikkiaoddly tho, when i disabled it again, it still kept alt-tabbing between all apps for a few seconds after hitting 'apply'01:08
apokryphosbut that doesn't do it just for alt-tab list01:09
nikkiaapok, it affects the task list (middle mouse button) but not the taskbar list01:10

thoreauputicwhatever that is...01:14
nikkiathey've killed the script-fu menu on editing windows01:14
apokryphos2.2.7 in Hoary01:14
nikkiaeverything sits below 'filters' now01:14
apokryphoserr, weird...01:14
_buzbut i assume the gui is still fugly, nikkia ?01:14
nikkiaabout time, really01:14
nikkiabuz, about as fugly as ever, yes01:14
apokryphos_buz: well, it's GTK :P01:14
_buzi'll stick to krita then01:14
_buzgood enough for my usses ;)01:15
apokryphosnikkia: why should the scripts be under filters, exactly?01:15
nikkiaohhh, new tool01:15
nikkia'align layers'01:15
nikkiaapokryphos: because 99% of the scripts are filter behaviour01:15
_buzlargely my graphic apps need to know how to crop images ;)01:15
nikkiaapokryphos: and 'script-fu' is hardly descriptive :)01:15
_buzkubuntu.org seems to be taking a beating for the koffice debs01:16
nikkiaapokryphos: adding a bevel to a layer is a filter action, IMO, not 'script-fu' whatever that means :)01:16
_buzwhen i started to upgrade it delivered 200k, now 60k01:16
apokryphosDo blends/waves, shadows, animators really qualify as filters?01:16
nikkiaapokryphos: yes01:16
apokryphosvery different to my understanding of it, then01:17
apokryphosas in, I wouldn't think of going to "filter" to get a shadow :|01:17
_buzmhh why not01:18
_buzeverything that does automatic foo is a filter??01:18
apokryphoshm, Breezy seems to only have 2.2.8 in atm01:18
nikkiaapokryphos: that's how it is on photoshop, that's where people expect drop shadowing to be :)01:18
apokryphos_buz: really? 01:18
apokryphosnikkia: is that their target market?01:19
apokryphosgnome approach seems to be more for "new users to computers", rather than x-windows-users01:19
apokryphosthat's why they try to avoid "Apply" and have instant activation for their things etc01:19
nikkiaapokryphos: gimp doesn't fit THAT market01:19
apokryphosapparently that's how we originally associate the metaphor 8)01:19
nikkiaapokryphos: yeah, cos photoshop hasn't had 'previewing' filters since v4.something :)01:20
nikkia4.5? i think, i know 4.01 had most of the filters require 'apply' and it was awful01:20
_buznikkia: wasnt there a gimp-ps project that aligned menu entries with PS names?01:20
nikkiabuz, yes01:21
nikkiabuz, i think it only really works on the OS X port tho01:21
_buzwhen i heard of it i thought they made a sane gui01:21
_buzboy was i wrong01:21
apokryphosHow exactly does Photoshop compare to GIMP? Seriously varied opinions there01:21
_buznot at all if you ask me01:21
apokryphosonly ever tried Photoshop briefly; I know gimp better01:21
_buzbut i'm totally untalented anyway01:22
nikkiaapokryphos: anyway, script-fu isn't entirely gone, my own scripts still appear under a seperate script-fu menu, because i haven't changed the registration strings01:22
thoreauputicapokryphos: neither is exactly intuitive :)01:22
nikkiaapokryphos: both have their pluses and minuses01:22
_buzi'd say PS i a lot more intuitive tho01:22
nikkiaphotoshop can be seriously annoying sometimes, compared to gimp, being able to script gimp is very nice, but gimp lacking effect layers is a major headache01:22
nikkiaalso, gimp's layers lack the clustering photoshop offers01:23

platoaliwhat encryption does your server use02:01
platoali?02:01
KosikoTLS & Plain but I tried also different ones, always with the same result02:02
platoaliwhat about SSL02:02
platoali?02:02
nikkiaplatoali: TLS is SSL02:02
platoalisorry02:02
nikkiathere might be other 'standards' for SMTP/POP/IMAP over SSL, but TLS is the common one02:03
buzTLS and SSL isn't strictly the same02:04
KosikoIf I choose SSL: same thing, SSL + Plain, SSL + Login, TSL + Plain, TSL + Login...02:04
buzSSL usually uses its own port02:04
buzwhereas TLS gets activated just before login on the same port02:04
buzafter that it's more or less the same02:04
nikkiamy problem with TLS for email is that noone uses anything but self-signed certs for it, and it gets annoying having to 'ok' the same cert over and over each time you send email :/02:05
nikkiaand no matter what you tell thunderbird, it doesn't seem to care about remembering that that cert is authorized02:06
buzyeah thunderbird is a bit stupid wrt to that02:06
nikkiaah, its not thunderbird at fault02:07
nikkiaits my mail provider02:07
Kosikokmail remembers it, but I think you have your reasosn ahy using thunderbird ;-)02:07
nikkiatheir certs are auto-generated by the looks of it, with a 1 hour expiry02:07
KosikoOha, so maybe kmail wouldnt do it either...02:08
KosikoAny other hints why sending mail would fail with kmail? 02:09
nikkiaKosiko: some mail providers insist on check-before-send, even with secure connections02:10
nikkia(i've even run into a few that *insist* on pop3 checks before send, even though they support imap, which is really really annoying02:10
KosikoBut kmail doesn't give me that option?? But when doing it manually it also does not work...02:11
nikkiaaltho, if it was check-before-send that was hitting you, you'd get a message about relaying, usually02:12
nikkiaKosiko: my guess would be, that you need to set it to cram-md5 or digest-md5, there's bound to be a setting in kmail for those, somewhere02:13
jpowers1 hour expiry?02:13
jpowersthat seems to defeat the purpose02:14
nikkiajpowers: my thoughts exactly02:14

Mezoh, fair enough ray_ 11:24
ray_apokryphos: not to be a pain but do you know of a link to show me how to do that?11:24
apokryphosray_: for konqueror at least you should be able to just install them both then go to Configure Konqueror and select there11:26
tdmgYES!11:26
tdmgI got onto Valknut!11:26
tdmgI'm making money yet again! :D11:26
tdmgthanks guys! :D11:26
ray_apokryphos: oh nice....... thankyou11:26
ray_apokryphos: is mplayer in universe or multiverse?11:28
apokryphos!find mozilla-mplayer11:28
ubotumozilla-mplayer: (MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla, Konqueror and OpenOffice.org), section multiverse/misc, is optional. Version: 2.70-1ubuntu1 (hoary), Packaged size: 93 kB, Installed size: 300 kB11:28
ray_very nice thank you11:29
apokryphosmight actually not work with Opera; I'm checking now11:30

Kejk_PLoh God, I spended two days to help uber_newber install his USB WLAN - echo /sbin/hotplug in  /etc/rcS.d/S40hotplug11:32
Kejk_PLthat should be fixed11:32
Kejk_PLif not - firmware won't load :/11:32

scythegot a question, everytime i go to enable my nic, in the control panel, it wont let me11:36
scythei enter the root password, and it goes to the default screen for the control panel, any clues?11:37
ray_in term do a sudo kcontrol11:37
ray_then you can control it11:37
scytheahhh, ive been using the administrator mode button on the applet... ill try that11:37
ray_yeah that administrator button never works for me11:38
scythedoh, and Ive been dl ubuntu because it always worked when I had ubuntu (the gnome version) with kde installed11:39
apokryphosIt should in theory, but seems to randomly not work for some; works here.11:39
nikkiaray, sudo kcontrol is a bad suggestion, it can mess up permissions on /tmp/kde-*/*, particularly the dcop sockets, you're better off doing kdesu kcontrol11:40
scythei may have to try that.... I am not looking forward to the 1.75 day wait for dvd image to down load11:40

apokryphoshm, yeah, Opera doesn't detect mozilla plugin :|11:41
apokryphoshey nikkia 11:42
nikkiahey apokryphos 11:42
ray_nikkia: really thanks....and sorry if i gave bad info11:42
nikkiaas i said earlier, there are two netscape ABIs11:42
scytheABIs?11:42
nikkiaapplication binary interface11:42
nikkiascythe: but don't worry about it, that comment was to apokryphos  :)11:43
scytheok, noob time, what are they used for?11:43
scytheim just trying to learn everything i can here11:43
nikkiascythe: whenever you have something where a binary program is used, especially in cases where it is used by another program, you are at the whim of the ABI11:43
scytheahh, k11:44
nikkiain the case of netscape plugins, if opera only implements one of the 2 ABIs, and i believe it does, then you're limited to only that set of netscape plugins working with it11:44
apokryphoswhich ones are they?11:45
nikkiascythe: another example of ABIs is the C++ ABI, where libraries compiled with gcc 2.95.2 can't be linked against with gcc 3.*, and vice versa11:45
scytheyour right, i wont worry about it... my fault for asking :)11:46
ray_lol11:46
nikkiaapokryphos: 'o32' and 'n32' iirc11:47
ray_ok step one complete i got java in konqeror11:47
ray_no time for mplayer11:47
nikkiajava plugins are always oji (o32) i think11:47
ray_*now time for mplayer11:47
apokryphosray_: for mplayer it should be enough to just install that package, I think. Konq already has the ~/.mozilla folder to scan for plugins, I believe11:47
ray_apokryphos: thanks we will find out11:48
nikkiahmm, no, o32 and n32 are something different11:49
ray_setting up java in konqeror was a breeze 11:49
apokryphos=)11:49
nikkiaapokryphos: i'm sure there's a second ABI for netscape plugins tho11:49
nikkiaapokryphos: i remember an issue with having a plugin in the 'wrong' format years ago11:50
ray_apokryphos: A problem occur while loading a library or a decoder: wmvdmod.dll .....thats becuase i need the w32codecs right11:51
apokryphosI think so, yes.11:51
nikkiaray, yep11:52
scytheyes11:52
nikkiabit spooky actually11:52
nikkiai just had that same error 15 minutes ago11:52
nikkiahad forgotten to install  w32codecs, and tried to use xine to view the frame city killer trailer11:52

apokryphosReminds me of one of the residents at my work; he's pretty paranoid; thinks there's a huge conspiracy out there, and that the world's against him11:53
ray_nikkia: thanks im downloading now11:53
apokryphosvery intelligent/well-read man though. Odd stuff. 11:53
scytheits not paranoia if they really are out to get you11:54
apokryphosno longer reads books; asked why and he just says, "Imagine if someone dumped 30 books made you read them all and then took the information from you". :|11:54
apokryphosscythe: sure :P11:54
nikkiaapokryphos: what reminded you of that?11:54
ray_sounds like an interesting guy11:54
scythehehe, ignorance is bliss11:54
ray_lol11:54
apokryphosnikkia: "spooky" ;-)11:54
nikkiaerm, ok11:54
apokryphoschain of causation is odd, isn't it? 8)11:55
nikkiayellow11:55
apokryphosanyhow, he also no longer keeps TVs -- asked me how I didn't know there was a vid camera in it11:55
scytheis his last name larouche?11:55
apokryphosnope11:56
apokryphosI actually think it's down to an author he read a lot of. Said he'd read around 40 out of 60 of his books; was about conspiracy theories11:56
apokryphosdidn't actually find out if he read them before/after it started though11:56
ray_how do i clear history in the location bar of konqeror11:56
scythethe reason i ask is lindon larouche is that type of person, and he runs for president on a more regular basis than ross perot11:57
nikkiaapokryphos: just as long as he doesn't start reading Erik von Daniken :P11:57
apokryphosray_: in Configure -> History ?11:57
nikkiaapokryphos: btw, i wasted 3 blank DVDs thanks to KDE today11:58
ray_mplayer now works thanks apokryphos 11:58
apokryphosnikkia: heh, how come? Thank God they're real cheap these days though, at least.11:58
apokryphosray_: cool! No worries.11:58
nikkiaapokryphos: kded's media component11:58
scytheat least they were +rw /dl disks, those are still 7 dollars a pop11:59
apokryphosah, never used11:59
nikkiaapokryphos: and it is a big deal, i only had 10 or so left, and was trying to wait until after pay day11:59
nikkiaas it was, i had to order 100 more11:59
apokryphoshow much do you get them for there?11:59
nikkia10/100 ? something like that11:59
apokryphosBetter than me ;-). Around 1611:59
nikkiai can buy them locally for 6/5012:00
