| apokryphos | Should actually mention this to the kudos guy, too, when he comes back. | 02:16 |

| nikkia | Firetech: its even more evil than that | 02:18 |
| Firetech | ubuntu has an advantage on that front. most Gnome programs can run with sudo without breaking stuff... I mostly use gedit for GUI editing (nano otherwise) | 02:18 |
| nikkia | Firetech: *if* that GUI app is the first app to use KDE features that are configurable, then it will conceivably create the defaults as root | 02:18 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: heh, I wish I knew what that meant. :) | 02:24 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: an XRUN is a 'glitch', afaict there are 2 kinds, fatal ones where the audio frame is lost, and non-fatal ones where the sync is missed slightly | 02:24 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: none at all? Sweet. Music, what's your poison? (love the way I turned that round from wine, eh? I am indeed the Lord of Language) | 02:26 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: well, 6 non-fatal ones | 02:26 |
| apokryphos | oh, that's what that means. | 02:26 |
| nikkia | which is probably about 50mS worth of hiccups over 3 hours :) | 02:26 |
| nikkia | its all because jack is running under the realtime-lsm | 02:27 |

| nikkia | but you can do what i did, and setup user accounts to have access to realtime-lsm :) | 02:28 |
| apokryphos | Seems to ruin half the point fo running a Linux system, to me at least. | 02:28 |

| apokryphos | heh. I'm sure it gets loads of visitors thinking... hey, where do people get these mp3 thingimagigies from -- aha! mp3.com | 02:33 |
| apokryphos | kind of a shame that the ultra-user-friendly-Linux should be a paid one, though. | 02:34 |

| Surfdue_ | no o ne can help with my problem? | 02:35 |
| apokryphos | Yup, they have all the signs. A "flash intro" | 02:35 |
| frank | apokryphos: well their click and run thing is closed source and based on apt but you can also buy commercial software with it. (yearly fee though so you keep on paying but you never have to buy software in a store) | 02:35 |

| apokryphos | haha, ultra corniness | 02:35 |
| sproingie | oh yeah, of course the fact that the guy went to bat to call the product *Lindows* of all things | 02:35 |
| sproingie | that put the most sour taste in my mouth | 02:36 |
| sproingie | really solidified the popular impression that linux was a cheap plastic windows knockoff | 02:36 |
| apokryphos | all these flashing pieces of text... "Linux".. "Kernel" wow! KDE 3.3!! | 02:36 |
| apokryphos | frank: hah, interesting. | 02:36 |
| Surfdue_ | helllo | 02:36 |
| Surfdue_ | i guess no one knows pcmica cards and kde | 02:37 |
| apokryphos | Surfdue_: for issues like that it's worth trying #ubuntu | 02:37 |
| Surfdue_ | why it disables | 02:37 |
| Surfdue_ | ok | 02:37 |
| apokryphos | I'd view that whole flash intro again if I had time ;-) | 02:37 |
| frank | apokryphos: but the running as root thing is horrible. only since I've running linux do I realise how bad that is in Windows too! | 02:38 |
| apokryphos | how popular is it exactly? | 02:38 |
| === apokryphos looks for unreliable results on distrowatch | ||

| apokryphos | 20th, there. | 02:39 |
| frank | I know the company has about 50 employees | 02:39 |
| Surfdue_ | apokryphos, what flash intro | 02:39 |
| Surfdue_ | :P | 02:39 |
| apokryphos | http://images.linspire.com/linspire5.0intro4-8-6.swf | 02:39 |
| sproingie | oh yeah, linspire comes with something called "hot words" | 02:39 |
| sproingie | which appears to be a TopText like thing right in the browser | 02:40 |
| sproingie | yay, first linux to SHIP with adware | 02:40 |
| frank | they do have a native version of wmv 8 and 9 though (licensed from microsoft) | 02:40 |
| sproingie | they filed the serial numbers off firefox and call it "Linspire Internet Suite" | 02:40 |
| apokryphos | oh my, there's a whole http://media.linspire.com/howto/kiosk.swf thing too. 8) | 02:41 |
| sproingie | actually looks like seamonkey, not firefox. my mistake | 02:41 |
| frank | sproingie: GPL lets you do that | 02:41 |
| sproingie | frank: that doesn't mean it's ethical | 02:41 |
| Surfdue_ | dont they have to give linspire fro free | 02:42 |
| Surfdue_ | they are charginf for linux! | 02:42 |
| Surfdue_ | isnt that illegal!! | 02:42 |
| sproingie | so go throw bob young in the clink | 02:43 |
| frank | Surfdue_: no its not and they have a bunch of stuff in there that they have to pay for to put in, so they have to charge | 02:43 |
| Surfdue_ | :P | 02:43 |
| Surfdue_ | i herd the source is free | 02:43 |
| Surfdue_ | hwere is it ;P | 02:43 |
| sproingie | my beef with linspire is mostly their shady history, which colors my current perceptions | 02:43 |
| frank | Surfdue_: You can go start selling ubuntu CDs for as much as you want totally legally | 02:44 |
| apokryphos | For me it wouldn't so much bother me that it's a shady business, but that it's representing Linux, and doing such things | 02:44 |
| sproingie | i suspect as they get more successful, they're becoming a bit more professional | 02:44 |
| apokryphos | frank: I can send you a signed one for only $10 | 02:44 |
| sproingie | i still think redhat has 'em beat in terms of talent and professionalism | 02:44 |
| frank | apokryphos: oh yes, I'll take 5! | 02:44 |
| apokryphos | frank: will Kubuntu ones do instead? I only have 2 Ubuntu ones | 02:45 |
| apokryphos | frank: also, it's $20 extra for them *all* to be signed | 02:45 |

| frank | root by default, yes, which is the worst thing about it. In the installation, it does suggest to setup a user to improve security though | 02:47 |
| Surfdue_ | why | 02:47 |
| sproingie | frank: that's *awesomely* irresponsible | 02:47 |
| apokryphos | Ubu seems to be somewhere in between extreme like Linspire and, say, Gentoo | 02:47 |
| sproingie | it goes to engineering talent or lack thereof | 02:47 |
| apokryphos | they're Debian really at heart, but they're aiming for the masses, too. | 02:48 |
| sproingie | i wonder how much linspire gets from the walmart cd's | 02:48 |
| frank | sproingie: IT is just wrong. all of the stuff that is in /home/username goes to /root instead which is horrible to see. you have an empty /home! | 02:48 |
| Surfdue_ | lol | 02:48 |
| sproingie | gotta say, if you're a software maker, wal-mart is about as good a deal as you can get | 02:48 |
| sproingie | if you actually have any marginal cost tho, dealing with walmart is a kiss of death | 02:48 |
| sproingie | it's like dealing with microsoft, only you're *sure* to get screwed | 02:49 |

| JayParadise | can linux only have sound coming out of one app at a time? lately ive been stuck in silence cus of dead processes | 02:50 |
| sproingie | JayParadise: no, you use a mixer like esd or arts | 02:50 |
| sproingie | gnome uses esd, kde uses arts | 02:50 |
| JayParadise | cus kaffeine or whatever will tell me the device is being used by another application yet i hear nothing | 02:51 |
| sproingie | speaking of arts, why won't mine upgrade? it's *still* missing the libarts dependency | 02:51 |
| === aseigo is now known as aseigo_afk | ||
| sproingie | JayParadise: actually i think that error's bogus. you probably just don't have access to the device | 02:51 |

| sproingie | easy way is chmod 666 /dev/dsp | 02:52 |

| frank | TestMAD: What he says about the decline of Microsoft is true though. They try to improve security for Longhorn but that would break alot of old apps so they are stuck between a rock and a hard place | 05:45 |
| cs378 | god i am startin to hate KDE, can i FULLY change it to gnome | 05:45 |
| frank | ttrocal: good | 05:45 |
| frank | cs378: I like kde better | 05:46 |
| TestMAD | yea..vista is supposed to be an attempt to get away from using the registry..(i wonder where they got that idea from..was it /etc?..hehe) but they're still going to use a virtual registry | 05:46 |
| frank | cs378: you mean install gnome? | 05:46 |
| cs378 | frank: im havin error on the kcontrol | 05:46 |
| cs378 | frank: yea install gnome | 05:46 |
| frank | install ubuntu-desktop | 05:47 |
| cs378 | thats all i do? | 05:47 |
| cs378 | after that, itll boot up with gnome? | 05:47 |
| TestMAD | frank: if you install gnome in kubuntu..will it give you a choice for what to use for your session? | 05:48 |
| === james is now known as jayparadise | ||
| frank | you will have the choice when you click session before logging in | 05:48 |
| cs378 | ohhh | 05:48 |
| cs378 | so if i log in with gnome, i get the same start menu as in kde right? | 05:48 |
| frank | cs378: well the programs from both are pretty mixed up in the menu, they're pretty much all there | 05:49 |
| cs378 | so, the differance between kde n gnome is its theme and the system control panel | 05:50 |
| frank | cs378: no there are alot more differences | 05:50 |
| frank | cs378: its a whole desktop environment | 05:50 |

| ray_ | paines: try it it doesnt work | 10:35 |
| paines | ray_: you must be system admministrator for that | 10:35 |
| nikkia | ray, it doesn't work because you're using a KDM theme, and the background is only used after the login is done in that situation | 10:35 |
| ray_ | paines: i know....doesnt work | 10:35 |
| paines | nikkia: thx, now it's burning | 10:35 |

| ray_ | nikkia: you know any solution? | 10:36 |
| nikkia | paines: its not strange, it really does act like that, when KDM is using a theme, it only uses the background between the login having happened, and ksplash starting up | 10:36 |
| nikkia | ray, erm, a kubuntu-friendly one? no, not really, at a pinch, you can replace the background file for the KDM theme | 10:37 |

| === hettar [~hettar@ppp113-202.lns1.bne3.internode.on.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | ray, or, slightly better, you can copy the kdm theme to a new name, and change it's background file, that way you're not overwriting any kubuntu files | 10:37 |
| ray_ | nikkia: how do i do that? | 10:38 |
| ray_ | gnome makes it so easy........kdm is bad | 10:39 |
| nikkia | ray, the themes are in /usr/share/apps/kdm/themes | 10:39 |
| ray_ | ok | 10:39 |
| nikkia | ray, if you cd to there, and do cp -a kubuntu kubuntu-new then put your new background as background.png in the kubuntu-new directory... | 10:40 |
| ray_ | o k i got ya | 10:40 |
| nikkia | then edit /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc and change the Theme= line to point to your new theme | 10:40 |

| ray_ | ive tried everything | 11:22 |
| nikkia | ray, thats very strange | 11:22 |
| nikkia | ray, which splash theme are you using ? | 11:22 |
| ray_ | i just want the kdm background to STAY when the boot splash comes up like it does by default | 11:23 |
| nikkia | ray, yeah, it doesn't work like that really :/ | 11:23 |
| ray_ | nikkia: the default splash screen | 11:23 |
| buz | anybody know where to get linux cell phones in europe | 11:23 |
| nikkia | ray, kdm and ksplah both have their own backgrounds, so what you have to do is fake it by setting the background of the two to be either the same or similar | 11:23 |
| buz | a nice qtopia phone would be to my likin | 11:23 |
| nikkia | buz, i don't think there are any on the market yet | 11:23 |
| nikkia | buz, samsung has one, i think, but its asia-only atm | 11:24 |
| ray_ | nikkia: it does when you install kubuntu....even if you change the splash to default ...the background sticks....when i do it now it goes away | 11:24 |
| nikkia | ray, its not sticking, its the fact that kubuntu's splash theme uses the same background as kubuntu's kdm theme :) | 11:25 |
| nikkia | ray, and kdm is configured to use the same background as its background, as well | 11:26 |
| nikkia | so the background goes thru the following: [kdm theme during login prompt] ->set to background defined in kdmrc->[ksplash background] | 11:26 |

| ray_ | nikkia: yeah im missing the third location | 11:27 |
| buz | after hitting win+z (for amarok) my keyboard wouldnt work anymore | 11:27 |
| ray_ | nikkia: during the bootsplash | 11:28 |
| nikkia | ray, in theory, you could make it dynamic by grabbing the screen image after the kdm theme is finished (ie you've started the login), and use that for the 2 remaining processes | 11:28 |
| ray_ | nikkia: huh | 11:28 |
| nikkia | ray, it should be /usr/share/apps/ksplash/Themes/kubuntu/Background.jpg | 11:28 |

| nikkia | torz, AMD64 stuff is a bit hit or miss, the drivers for your card might not be working properly because of the fact you're running AMD64 | 11:42 |
| ray_ | nikkia: after a long time i figured itout | 11:42 |
| nikkia | torz, check in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see if there is some error message | 11:43 |
| torz | nikkia: cheeers I'll look right now | 11:43 |
| torz | hahaha | 11:44 |
| nikkia | torz, unless you really need 64bit support, or know what you're doing, you're probably better off running plain 32bit for now, really | 11:44 |
| torz | there is no log for xorg in there | 11:44 |

| nikkia | torz, well, its for running servers, not desktops :) | 11:45 |
| torz | damn you, only if you told me that 10 minutes ago | 11:46 |
| nikkia | torz, you might be able to fix it without reinstalling | 11:46 |
| nikkia | torz, try sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 11:46 |

| torz | nikkia: what does it mean by "depth" in regards to resolution? | 12:21 |
| torz | looking at xorg.conf atm | 12:21 |
| insanekane | the server dies stating it can't find the font "fixed" | 12:21 |
| insanekane | torz: color depth | 12:21 |
| torz | so 32 means 32bits? | 12:21 |
| insanekane | well .. it means 2^32 colors | 12:21 |
| nikkia | torz, yes | 12:22 |
| nikkia | there's no real difference between 24 and 32bit, other than some cards support one, some the other | 12:22 |
| torz | 2^32 == 32bits... | 12:22 |

| === brosio [~brosio@host65-64.pool80181.interbusiness.it] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| insanekane | yep | 12:23 |
| nikkia | (it is referring to the framebuffer target, and thus doesn't matter if you use 24 or 32bit depth in terms of Composite (alpha blending) support, as that is not a function of the target framebuffer) | 12:23 |
| nikkia | insanekane: no, it doesn't mean 2^32 colours, because all 32bit supporting cards just ignore the extra 8 bits in terms of colours used, it is just a means to padding the framebuffer pixels to fit in a double word and thus increase performance of the memory subsystem on the video card | 12:24 |
| insanekane | right ... im really happy that computer designers now use marketing-speak :P | 12:25 |
| insanekane | nikkia: what i would really like your help on though, is how to get the font "fixed" :) | 12:25 |
| nikkia | insane, um, isn't fixed a base X font ? | 12:26 |

| nikkia | insanekane: half of the fonts are aliased, so without mkfontdir you're not going to get your fonts.alias files | 12:55 |

| insanekane | fonts.dir | 12:55 |

| insanekane | thats not much of a change | 01:04 |
| insanekane | just some geography | 01:04 |
| nikkia | insanekane: its as much a change as 'moving to new zealand to start a new life' | 01:05 |

| McScruff | im learning :) | 01:29 |
| insanekane | McScruff: if you want to learn C++ GUI programming, i greatly suggest the Qt toolkit | 01:29 |
| jpatrick | I've never done C | 01:29 |
| McScruff | i want to learn C | 01:29 |
| insanekane | oh right | 01:29 |
| torz | McScruff: these days you shouldnt have to handcode GUI anyways :p | 01:29 |
| jpatrick | just jumped to C++ | 01:29 |
| may | bouh | 01:29 |
| Hacker | any C# coder in the room | 01:29 |
| may | bouhh | 01:29 |
| insanekane | isnt there a C binding for Qt ? | 01:29 |
| McScruff | i want to get into C for console development in the future | 01:29 |
| torz | ah, "Thinking in C++" is a good book if you're going to migrate from C to C++ :~) | 01:29 |
| McScruff | well i have only just started C | 01:30 |
| may | bouh | 01:30 |

| McScruff | im running it atm | 01:30 |
| Hacker | ATM hey | 01:30 |
| torz | Hacker: I've looked into C# and I think its pretty damn close to Java (syntax wise). | 01:31 |
| torz | I still need to look into mobo though. | 01:31 |
| insanekane | Riddell: its a known bug ... lots of stuff missing, xset, xsetroot, etc | 01:31 |
| Hacker | well if you can code C# yu can code Java | 01:31 |
| insanekane | Riddell: #12872 | 01:31 |
| torz | exactly, and vice versa. | 01:31 |
| Hacker | the syntax is similar in some way | 01:31 |
| may | bouh | 01:31 |
| Hacker | yep | 01:31 |
| insanekane | Riddell: about freetype ... any plans to upgrade to 2.1.9 ? required for scribus 1.3 | 01:32 |

| torz | mmm | 02:32 |
| torz | I had a similar problem with cdrom. | 02:32 |
| Aapzak | torz: I like the package manager, I'm just not used to repos that don't work | 02:32 |
| torz | Aapzak: yeah but as far as Java goes its uber simple installation. | 02:33 |
| Aapzak | allright, maybe true indeed | 02:33 |
| torz | If you dont like binaries then you can get a rpm from there, you can convert it to .deb with alien iirc. | 02:33 |
| Aapzak | apt says Hit, Get or Ign. I suspect that Ign is a update failure | 02:34 |
| Aapzak | no | 02:34 |
| Aapzak | ign might mean that my package list is up to date, no need to get another one, ignore. | 02:34 |

| kalenedrael | oh, never mind | 02:57 |
| Aapzak | kalenedrael: he's showing how old kubuntu is | 02:57 |
| jeh_work | Aapzak: nah, just generally | 02:57 |
| Aapzak | k, it has kde 3.4 | 02:57 |
| jeh_work | Aapzak: a bit like the last stable debian was about 20 years old | 02:57 |
| torz | the problem is apt wont get me w32cocecs | 02:57 |
| kalenedrael | 2.6.10 is kinda old for a kernel | 02:57 |
| torz | no but you can relate to the kernel | 02:57 |
| torz | exactly | 02:57 |
| torz | 5.04 means nothing but kernel 2.6.10 means something. | 02:57 |
| Aapzak | it does | 02:58 |
| kalenedrael | yes | 02:58 |
| mart | torz: you probably haven't got your apt sources set up right | 02:58 |
| jeh_work | 2.6.10 and kde 3.4.2 is new enough, i can update software from extra repos if needed | 02:58 |
| kalenedrael | yes | 02:58 |
| Aapzak | jeh_work: it's not 3.4.2 | 02:58 |

| kalenedrael | apt != debian | 03:00 |
| Aapzak | can you use breezy? or is it highly unrecommended? | 03:01 |
| _kay | Well, Ubuntu is still based on Debian | 03:01 |
| mart | yes, that's true | 03:01 |
| Aapzak | I want kde 3.4.1+ | 03:01 |
| _kay | In that, there is testing and unstable | 03:01 |
| mart | no | 03:01 |
| _kay | no? | 03:01 |
| mart | I don't think there are as many stages | 03:01 |
| hettar | can you get the latest ALSA for the current ubuntu ? | 03:02 |
| _kay | There are even experimental, unstable, testing, stable and oldstable | 03:02 |
| _kay | That is nothing that Ubuntu needs to do, what it does is making more frequent stabilization processes | 03:03 |
| torz | damn w32codecs doesnt work under x86_64... although as expected. | 03:03 |
| mart | _kay: where are the experimental, testing and oldstable versions of ubuntu packages | 03:03 |
| _kay | That is what I said, that is Debian | 03:03 |
| mart | yes, debian has those. I thought you were trying to say ubuntu also did | 03:04 |

| Aapzak | guys, you recommend Blackdown java or Sun? | 03:04 |
| _kay | It takes advantage of them | 03:04 |

| Aapzak | or IBM java? | 03:04 |
| mart | Aapzak: blackdown is based on suns code | 03:04 |
| Aapzak | but open source? | 03:04 |
| mart | no | 03:04 |
| _kay | jamwm does run what i need, which is not much | 03:04 |
| _kay | But it is a free one with GNU classpath I think | 03:05 |
| mart | Aapzak: at least, as open source as suns jdk is | 03:05 |
| _kay | Which is not entirely much | 03:05 |
| Aapzak | nope | 03:05 |
| Aapzak | not goof | 03:05 |
| _kay | by standards of OSI at least | 03:05 |

| _kay | For all I know, if they use Swing, the free implementations are not yet complete at all | 03:07 |
| Aapzak | in extras | 03:08 |
| Aapzak | is Sun JDK | 03:08 |
| Aapzak | lemme do that | 03:08 |
| _kay | That one will likely work | 03:08 |
| _kay | now, later others will also work, a lot of people work on Free Software Java stuff | 03:08 |
| _kay | Thing Apache with Harmony, then there is Kaffee and Jamvm and GNU classpath and gcc has something with that too | 03:09 |
| torz | AWT sucks, Swing sucks, but SWT rocks. | 03:09 |

| _neil | hi | 03:44 |
| _neil | any possibility to have the flash plugin under a kubuntu-powerpc ? | 03:44 |
| nikkia | _neil: i believe you need to take that up with macromedia, as the only flash plugin for linux is for x86 | 03:47 |
| mart | one of the free ones might work, I guess | 03:47 |
| mart | but I don't use them, so can't help much there | 03:47 |

| ToyMan | hi all | 03:50 |
| ToyMan | just got kubuntu running on my lapper... very nice | 03:51 |
| ToyMan | I'm usually working in freebsd, but that wouldn't boot on this hp... | 03:51 |
| ToyMan | my congrats to any who do install work on this channel, very slick, very well thought out | 03:51 |
| nikkia | swfdec certainly seems to have a ppc package, but i can't tell if it includes a plugin or not | 03:51 |
| nikkia | swf-player claims to include a plugin, but i can't find the packages anywhere in the pool directory, which is strange | 03:52 |
| ToyMan | I may even get my wife to use this ;-) | 03:52 |
| nikkia | ah, swf-player is provided by swfdec, so i imagine installing that should be possible on ppc, and should provide you a flash plugin | 03:53 |

| _neil | nikkia: thanks :) | 03:54 |
| nikkia | _neil, i'd still complain at macromedia tho :) | 03:54 |
| _neil | ;) | 03:54 |
| nikkia | it won't do any good, but still, it'd be one more linux ppc user expressing their dissatisfaction of their pathetic policies | 03:55 |
| _kay | ToyMan: The next release will be even better for laptops | 03:55 |
| mart | heh, if mac are moving to intel, I'd be surprised to ever see a ppc version from them | 03:56 |
| tech | i have a complaint, i installed apache in my kubuntu.. and it comes with a debian logo :(:( | 03:56 |
| _kay | what is your problem with that, tech? | 03:57 |
| tech | i tried to make a joke =p | 03:57 |
| ToyMan | kay, excellent. | 03:58 |
| _kay | Actually, the installer is the new Debian installer, ToyMan, with some tunings... that I like as well :) | 03:59 |
| ToyMan | well, it was about as painless as it gets... | 03:59 |
| ToyMan | no wifi yet though | 03:59 |
| _kay | what chipset? | 04:00 |
| ToyMan | heh, the main thing i had to do for the install was drink coffee ;-) | 04:00 |

| _kay | Don't know about those | 04:03 |
| nikkia | broadcom are notoriously bad for getting to work on linux :/ | 04:03 |
| _kay | ndiswrapper? | 04:03 |
| nikkia | _kay, that'd be my guess | 04:03 |
| ToyMan | _kay: thanks, i'll look into it | 04:03 |
| _kay | I bought my laptop with Linux pre-installed | 04:04 |
| ToyMan | hmm. does kubuntu use sudo only? | 04:04 |
| _kay | That helped somewhat in knowing the drivers exist and work :p | 04:04 |
| nikkia | i just use 802.11b cards that are ages old but supported well :) | 04:04 |

| gdh | jpatrick: 'mkdir' | 07:36 |
| jpatrick | ok | 07:36 |
| jpatrick | great | 07:37 |
| jpatrick | now it says: 'device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Is a directory)' | 07:37 |
| gdh | ah, I guess your sound card doesn't work, then? | 07:38 |
| jpatrick | no it doesn't | 07:39 |
| gdh | you can't just 'mkdir /dev/dsp' if it didn't exist - it means that the driver for your sound card wasn't loaded... | 07:39 |

| PrimoTurbo | How can I uninstall Kubuntu and all the files it installed? | 08:16 |
| PrimoTurbo | I'm having some issues with it and I would rather use gnome but I don't want it to waste my space as I have little of it left | 08:17 |
| PrimoTurbo | I used this to install it http://www.kubuntu.org/documentation.php | 08:17 |
| jpatrick | Just install ubuntu-desktop | 08:17 |
| jpatrick | you'll have GNOME and KDE | 08:18 |
| PrimoTurbo | I don't need KDE | 08:18 |
| PrimoTurbo | I have it installed already | 08:18 |
| jpatrick | then do: sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop | 08:19 |
| PrimoTurbo | will it remove all the stuff that it has added including the shortcuts in gnomes menu? | 08:19 |
| jpatrick | no | 08:19 |
| jpatrick | I think | 08:19 |
| PrimoTurbo | I need to remove that myself then? | 08:19 |

| nikkia | jpatrick, the reason i was having problems.... | 08:21 |

| nikkia | i had written my rules in 99-symlinks, assuming, it would get executed after 50-udev.rules, but no, udev gives up parsing through the list once it gets a match :( | 08:22 |
| PrimoTurbo | does kde require a better computer to run? | 08:22 |
| PrimoTurbo | it's a little bit slower then gnome correct? | 08:22 |
| nikkia | PrimoTurbo: depends entirely on how you configre gnome and kde :) | 08:23 |
| PrimoTurbo | jpatrick I did what your told me to uninstall it | 08:23 |
| PrimoTurbo | not that I notice any difference, just my cd player doesn't work in kde and I can't fix it | 08:24 |

| PrimoTurbo | said* | 08:28 |
| PrimoTurbo | but I still have kde stuff that I don't need | 08:28 |
| PrimoTurbo | programs and such | 08:28 |
| mart | PrimoTurbo: ah, aptitude remembers what you've installed manually, and what got installed automatically, but I guess that's a bit late for you | 08:28 |
| PrimoTurbo | I need to remove them all | 08:28 |
| PrimoTurbo | how do I run this aptit* | 08:29 |
| mart | PrimoTurbo: you mean kscd didn't work for you? | 08:29 |
| gdh | PrimoTurbo: apt-get remove kdelibs4 should pull the carpet from under everything KDE ... | 08:29 |
| PrimoTurbo | yeah it didn't work | 08:29 |
| PrimoTurbo | and cd player didn't work under kde | 08:29 |
| jackson | look, im sorry to go this low. but i need help with irc, can anyone tell me a channel. dudes, take pity. total n00b | 08:29 |
| PrimoTurbo | and totem cd player didn't work under kde but works under gnome | 08:29 |
| PrimoTurbo | i wish I could help but I know so little :( | 08:30 |
| mart | PrimoTurbo: did you try the kde cd player? | 08:30 |
| qbit | kscd will only work if you have the analog audio cable plugged up and it can find/see the correct device | 08:30 |
| PrimoTurbo | yes I did, didnt work | 08:30 |
| PrimoTurbo | it showed it was playing but there was no sound | 08:30 |
| PrimoTurbo | however ogg and system sounds worked fine | 08:30 |
| qbit | xmms will do digital audio through the ide interface | 08:30 |
| PrimoTurbo | how come cd player didn't work then? | 08:31 |
| PrimoTurbo | and it works under gnome fine? | 08:31 |
| qbit | it works here :-) | 08:31 |
| supernix | hi wassup with the hoary 3.4.2 | 08:32 |
| PrimoTurbo | I dunno why it didn't work | 08:32 |
| qbit | but also maybe the audio channel was turned down/disabled in the mixer | 08:32 |
| supernix | Do we have to do anything to our source.list to get it and such ? | 08:32 |
| PrimoTurbo | so kdelibs4 should remove all kde stuff? | 08:32 |
| PrimoTurbo | gdh | 08:32 |
| PrimoTurbo | or will I still stuff all around my system cause I really dont need that | 08:32 |
| jpatrick | supernix: http://kubuntu.org/hoary-kde-342.php | 08:32 |

| pakos | yes. a normal upgrade never installs or removes additional packages | 08:39 |
| supernix | what do you mean may remove stuff ? | 08:39 |

| jpatrick | okay | 08:40 |

| ztonzy | pakos: since I installed linux , after been in XP for 2 months , I installed Kubuntu first, and found some segfaults here and there...installed Gnome...and back and forth, but now latest update of kde feels really nice | 10:14 |
| pakos | send with dcc some here, pls :) | 10:14 |
| ztonzy | pakos: hehe | 10:14 |
| PieD | another question about kubuntu on an amd64 : | 10:15 |
| ztonzy | pakos: I had some issues with former mainboard...more issues in linux than windows, but in the end it happened in windows too...so I got a new mobo..and installed Kubuntu | 10:15 |
| pakos | hmm, the icon for the system:/ io-slave looks nice in 3.4.2 :) | 10:15 |
| PieD | can I download the OOo 2m118 rpms, use alien on them and then install them without any problem ? | 10:15 |
| ztonzy | pakos: I installed another icon theme after 3.4.2 | 10:16 |
| mart | PieD: I don't know about "without any problem" but in theory... | 10:16 |
| pakos | ztonzy: hardware issues are bad :-( | 10:16 |
| hon | I have a problem with accessing other unix machines. I think my x server settings don't allow the remote ones to open display on my local machine (is this called tunneling?). I just don't know which settings to touch | 10:17 |
| pakos | PieD: i'll stick with the tgz binary distribution | 10:17 |

| PieD | pakos: where do you download them ? | 10:17 |
| mart | hon: ssh -X ? | 10:17 |
| pakos | simply uninstall the debs, and install the binary | 10:17 |
| PieD | ftp://ftp.belnet.be/pub/mirror/ftp.openoffice.org/developer/680_m118 => no tgz ? | 10:17 |
| ztonzy | pakos: it was a nforce2 ultra (Shuttle) mobo...this is Asus VIA KT600 :) | 10:17 |
| supernix | why wouldn't they update the OO2 packages | 10:18 |
| pakos | PieD: ups, you have right.. sorry then, try the rpms. good luck :) | 10:18 |
| supernix | actually I got them from the repository from the first place | 10:18 |
| supernix | I just want to finally be able to use the OpenDocument format | 10:18 |
| PieD | and what about flash player using an amd64 ? | 10:18 |
| mart | did we have this conversation earlier? | 10:19 |
| mart | (no, sorry that was flash for ppc) | 10:19 |
| pakos | ztonzy: hmm, sorry, i'm a bit out-of-sync with the hardware brands in the last times :) | 10:20 |

| ztonzy | before in kde 3.4.1 it didnt look like this | 10:24 |

| ztonzy | wasn't like this before | 10:28 |

| Talldave2002 | hello all | 10:31 |
| pakos | the settings on the right disappeared. strange. it works for me(tm) | 10:32 |
| ztonzy | pax: yes...but before upgrade, the treeview with icons to the left was and settings/panels to the right...now...only big icons to click | 10:32 |

| Firetech | weren't there qt 4 deb's for kubuntu somewhere? | 10:34 |
| gdh | Firetech: yes :) | 10:34 |
| pakos | simply general: are there entries? these are the plugins which are loaded, when you click on one of the entries | 10:34 |
| Talldave2002 | prevoiusly stuck with Windows, tried Linux a couple of years ago but couldnt connect to the net so kinda gave up | 10:35 |
| ztonzy | pakos: oh...I pasted it into Konsole :) | 10:35 |
| Firetech | gdh: where? | 10:35 |
| gdh | Firetech: http://dev.kubuntu.org.uk/~jr/kubuntu/qt4/ | 10:35 |
| Firetech | thank yo | 10:35 |
| Firetech | *you | 10:35 |
| pakos | ztonzy: :-) for example, 'kcmshell panel' opens the panel configuration window | 10:35 |
| gdh | Firetech: was just grepping the logs :) | 10:35 |
| ztonzy | pakos: it does | 10:36 |
| pakos | ztonzy: hmm. then i would create a new user and check if for him looks kcontrol ok, or not | 10:37 |
| ztonzy | pakos: could do yes | 10:37 |
| Talldave2002 | just having a little problem using Qemu is there anyone here who may be able to help? | 10:37 |
| pakos | ztonzy: if it's ok, then purge your settings belonging to kcontrol under ~/.kde :) | 10:38 |

| persnickety | kde dev files are for download on kubuntu.org site yes? | 11:27 |
| Firetech | they don't have any release name in their versions, and they don't want to install on hoary... | 11:27 |
| Firetech | and they aren't in a repository.. | 11:27 |
| Firetech | I'm talking about those -> http://dev.kubuntu.org.uk/~jr/kubuntu/qt4/ | 11:28 |
| _kay | Ah hm... I would say when Debian maintains it | 11:29 |
| _kay | hm... probably it is for Debian unstable, and likely matches Breezy a lot better than Hoary | 11:29 |
| _kay | But the dependencies are not many | 11:30 |

| nyn | Hi. I'm a newcomer to kubuntu. I've seen that there there is a new kde, a "maintainance release" and was wondering it is worth installing. My main priority is stability. If this release fix previous bugs great, but is it likely to break something? I'm on Hoary and have no intention to move to the unstable branch... | 11:42 |

| insanekane | jpowers: LOL :) | 11:47 |

| nyn | i have a problem with charsets in kmail... i hoping that maybe that would be fixed (if it's not a configuration issue on my system) in this release... | 11:52 |
| nyn | anyway, last time i used kde it was really hell, everything was so brittle, i'm kind of traumatized... i'm really tired of having to fix things. now that it all seems a bit more stable, i'll not take any risks. wait for breezy... | 11:53 |
