| === lunahood [~lunahood@D9934.d.pppool.de] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| goldfish | hmm. | 01:15 |
| aseigo | RSS is "resident set size" and is approximately the amount of actual RAM the app is using, minus shared libraries, swapped out bits, etc | 01:15 |
| boga | thanx aseigo, but the first answer is not very clear, and the app does not have anyting to explain this! | 01:16 |
| aseigo | boga: you mean the answer re:VmSize is not particularly clear? | 01:17 |
| boga | aseigo: yes, | 01:17 |
| boga | The bit "...has let that app earmark" is not understood | 01:18 |
| aseigo | boga: VmSize is the total amount of RAM that the application is using. some (or a lot) of that may also be shared with other applications, though, in the form of shared libraries and what not | 01:18 |
| boga | ok | 01:18 |

| aseigo | boga: yeah, that's me | 01:28 |
| bretzel | Hello -- Is it safe to get kde-342 from the kubuntu repos while I am using Ubuntu ? | 01:28 |
| aseigo | boga: remember that you want to MINUS the buffers and cache | 01:28 |
| aseigo | boga: linux tries to keep your RAM used by filling up the RAM not needed by apps with disk caches.. sort of like an automatic, auto-resizing ram disk | 01:29 |
| drunkchmod | aseigo: does this make linux system run hotter than windows system with more RAM being in use? | 01:29 |
| boga | Ok. I should not be worries after all | 01:30 |
| aseigo | drunkchmod: no | 01:30 |
| boga | it even says so in the tooltips | 01:30 |
| aseigo | drunkchmod: if anything it keeps it down by not hitting disk as much | 01:30 |
| aseigo | boga: hoorah for tooltips! =)) | 01:30 |
| drunkchmod | aseigo: very good | 01:30 |
| drunkchmod | bretzel: you desire to use kubuntu on your ubuntu system? | 01:31 |
| boga | aseigo: That's you...wow. Now this might be offtopic but I'll praise HP once I can download their Linux printer drivers from HP.com | 01:34 |
| boga | Since they "support" Linux, they should have a Linux driver section just like they do for Windows. | 01:35 |
| === aseigo laughs | ||
| aseigo | usually the best you can get is a link from the drivers page for the printer | 01:35 |
| aseigo | thought usually the most recent printer drivers are included with your linux install these days | 01:36 |
| bretzel | drunkchmod: Why not ? :-) | 01:36 |
| boga | That's not the point. Imagine yrself infronf of a PHB,,,trying to justify an HO printer, but have to go to a 3rd party site to get drivers in order to use some of its unique capabilities! | 01:37 |
| bretzel | drunkchmod: Especialy for Kdevelop (3.1.2) | 01:37 |
| boga | We lost out to Windows at my company this way | 01:37 |
| boga | there I was, going to linuxprinting.com...for an HP printer I claimed was supported by HP! | 01:38 |
| aseigo | well, this is where salesmanship helps =) | 01:38 |
| boga | aseigo: It was hard...infact Windows beat us there. | 01:38 |
| aseigo | at that point i usually point out that the Linux ecosystem works differently, and BETTER, in this way than many others | 01:38 |
| aseigo | instead of having to scour the internet for drivers, we usually have them all assembled in one place | 01:39 |
| boga | well, not when you have others claiming a solution with "known" places for support. | 01:39 |
| aseigo | our achiles heel is that we don't always have the breadth of drivers available, but what is there is usually already categorized | 01:39 |
| aseigo | yes, "known" as in "N different locations for N different solutions" | 01:39 |
| aseigo | which is silly, really, when you think about it | 01:40 |
| boga | Well, if HP had put these drivers on their page, we'd be OK now. After all, they "support" Linux right? | 01:40 |
| aseigo | in an environment where cooperation is encouraged, people help each other find the best solutions. so instead of looking for the "right" printer driver, if it exists it's likely well categorized with all the other ones | 01:40 |
| aseigo | boga: not really. i mean, yes, it would be nice to see more visible signs of support, but i really hate having to dig through every vendor's unique website and deciphering their specific download system | 01:41 |
| boga | But why won't they put these drivers there? WHY? | 01:41 |
| aseigo | boga: much nicer is when they are all pooled together with consistent documentation and access features | 01:41 |
| aseigo | market realities. | 01:41 |
| boga | That's not the way decision makers see things. | 01:41 |
| === nikkia [~nikki@host-87-74-30-24.bulldogdsl.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| aseigo | not enough of a desktop market to make waves far enough ashore to reach the people who manage those websites, primariliy | 01:42 |
| boga | when you claim support, verification is made by visiting yr site. | 01:42 |
| aseigo | boga: as i said, this is where salesmanship comes into play. decision makers are often wrong ;) but are almost always willing to discover new and better ways of doing things | 01:42 |
| lscd | boga: decision makers don't see things in one unified way | 01:43 |
| boga | Not when you have another vendor with all sorts of relevant sites...meanwhile, you present Linuxprinnn.com, linuxhhh.net | 01:43 |
| boga | so I see we have a long way to go | 01:43 |

| === P3L|C4N0 o/ Hi people | ||
| crimsun | it is 2.6.10 by default | 02:14 |

| lscd | hah, very funny | 02:15 |
| luminerd | thanks guys | 02:15 |
| lscd | and gcc 2.7? | 02:15 |

| luminerd | why is my ps/2 keyboard not working? I press enter at the boot screen, and then when I get to the language selection, it won't work to select english. | 02:16 |

| luminerd | ........... | 02:40 |
| luminerd | modprobe wtf? | 02:40 |
| lscd | the way you load drivers under linux without rebooting | 02:40 |
| lscd | ok, what kind of mouse is it? | 02:40 |
| luminerd | lscd, ps/2 | 02:40 |
| lscd | lsmod | grep psmouse | 02:41 |
| luminerd | psmouse 19336 0 | 02:41 |
| lscd | ok, so modprobe won't help ;) | 02:41 |
| lscd | does it not move at all when you wiggle it? | 02:41 |
| luminerd | nope :( | 02:42 |
| luminerd | should I cat it? | 02:42 |
| lscd | i'd recommend using od, but sure, give that a try | 02:42 |
| luminerd | od? | 02:42 |
| luminerd | either way I forget what command to run :P | 02:42 |
| lscd | like cat, but it deals with binary data [like you'll get from your mouse] without corrupting your terminal | 02:42 |
| lscd | od /dev/psaux perhaps | 02:42 |
| luminerd | permission denied, lscd :( | 02:43 |
| lscd | sudo od /dev/psaux | 02:43 |
| lscd | you need root perms | 02:43 |
| luminerd | ok...so what now? | 02:44 |
| lscd | well, wiggle the mouse | 02:44 |
| lscd | does a bunch of stuff appear? | 02:44 |
| luminerd | nothing | 02:44 |
| lscd | ok, check that it's plugged in tightly | 02:44 |
| lscd | and that you're using the right mouse | 02:44 |
| luminerd | it is | 02:44 |
| luminerd | lol | 02:44 |
| luminerd | I am | 02:44 |
| lscd | dmesg | 02:45 |
| luminerd | eth0: link down | 02:45 |
| luminerd | that's just another problem :( | 02:46 |
| luminerd | lscd, any ideas? | 02:46 |
| lscd | yeah, it is weird.... | 02:46 |
| lscd | er, does your mouse work under other systems? windows, knoppix....? | 02:46 |
| lscd | and you're sure it's not plugged into the keyboard port? | 02:46 |
| luminerd | umm | 02:46 |
| luminerd | err, well if it were my keyboard wouldn't work lol | 02:47 |
| luminerd | 1 sec | 02:47 |
| lscd | sorry if this sounds like dumb questions :p | 02:47 |
| lscd | but you'd be surprised | 02:47 |
| luminerd | yup it's alright | 02:47 |
| luminerd | *all right | 02:47 |
| luminerd | should I try a reboot? | 02:48 |
| lscd | i guess | 02:48 |
| lscd | preferably into non-kubuntu | 02:48 |
| lscd | to see if the mouse works there | 02:48 |
| luminerd | or uh, I could move the mouse to a dif. system? | 02:48 |

| lscd | you'd have to reboot both systems | 02:49 |

| luminerd | on that system anyway | 02:49 |
| lscd | not got any other livecds sitting around? | 02:49 |
| luminerd | no | 02:49 |
| luminerd | winblows on the other system though | 02:49 |
| lscd | mm | 02:50 |
| lscd | ok, try swapping your mice, after shutting down both pcs | 02:50 |
| luminerd | alright | 02:50 |
| luminerd | I didn't need to reboot the windows system. | 02:52 |
| luminerd | the mouse works. | 02:52 |
| lscd | you shouldn't try to hot-plug ps/2 mice | 02:52 |
| lscd | you can fry stuff | 02:52 |
| luminerd | hot-plug? | 02:52 |
| lscd | plug in while the system is on | 02:52 |
| luminerd | I see...why the crap is that? | 02:53 |
| luminerd | lol | 02:53 |
| lscd | electronics | 02:53 |
| lscd | they're an ugly little field ;) | 02:53 |
| luminerd | -_-' | 02:53 |
| lscd | usb is designed to be fairly safe to hot-plug | 02:53 |

| delltony | hats how its designed | 02:59 |
| luminerd | kaplanfx, afaik it doesn't matter since you end up installing all the updates anyway via internet | 02:59 |
| delltony | just like office word loads the .doc files inside of a browser | 02:59 |
| luminerd | delltony, ok, well I dont know what I'm talking about :{ | 02:59 |
| kaplanfx | so I may as well go with the daily eh? | 02:59 |
| luminerd | kaplanfx, don't take my word for it, I'm no expert :P might try #ubuntu | 03:00 |
| delltony | when you go to a page that contains a document | 03:00 |
| delltony | i use to use IE reason i say this | 03:00 |
| luminerd | its more active | 03:00 |
| delltony | but being i have used linux for about 3 years now then its firefox or nothing | 03:00 |
| luminerd | lscd, you still around? | 03:00 |
| delltony | the daily cd is the development build | 03:00 |
| delltony | development = bugs | 03:00 |
| delltony | if you have some spray then go for it | 03:00 |

| _jeremy | gplflash-0.4.13 | 06:01 |
| ray_ | what is that | 06:01 |

| _jeremy | ok, did that and now it gives me this: error: cannot find X11 development files | 06:02 |
| ray_ | what is gplflash? | 06:03 |
| lscd | it's a free implementation of (part of) flash | 06:03 |
| lscd | it's covered in the userdocs | 06:03 |
| ray_ | why not use normal flash? | 06:03 |
| lscd | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats#head-f375cba46014e861cd5ec7643bd7c4ef05acff2b | 06:03 |
| _jeremy | its to run flash on an x86_64 architecture system | 06:03 |
| lscd | normal flash is only available for 32 bit intel pcs | 06:04 |
| ray_ | ahhh | 06:04 |
| lscd | if you've got a 64 bit system, or a ppc system, etc, it's useless | 06:04 |
| ray_ | and its not in the repos? | 06:04 |
| lscd | no, it's not | 06:04 |

| _jeremy | no, im told its not complete and not stable, but im a windows user, so im used to software like that, but i need it, so its worth the risk | 06:05 |
| _jeremy | i tried gentoo before this, couldnt get it installed, it was having problems with my hd and it wouldnt access it to partition it the way it needed | 06:05 |
| lscd | it'd probably be more stable, though a little more complex, to get a 32-bit version of firefox and use normal flash with it | 06:05 |
| lscd | _jeremy: ahh, sata? i had problems like that too, but eventually got them sorted and installed it | 06:06 |
| _jeremy | the version of firefox that i got was one that was available in the repository | 06:06 |
| _jeremy | yep, sata | 06:06 |
| lscd | hm, boot with nodma, maybe modprobe something, and hda might be hdg, iirc | 06:07 |
| _jeremy | i wasnt sure how to fix the problem, got frustrated and started looking for a different distro | 06:07 |
| lscd | gentoo is a bitch to install | 06:07 |
| lscd | but after that, it gives you far less of the kinds of pains you're going through for gplflash | 06:07 |
| _jeremy | yea, i heard that before i tried but figured i would give it a shot anyway. turns out everybody was right, so i abandoned it and got kubuntu | 06:07 |

| _jeremy | really? i heard there were, but very very few of them, like under 50 | 06:14 |
| lscd | there are viruses, but they're all research ones, and none are actively spreading ("in the wild") | 06:15 |
| lscd | the only way you'll get infected is if you actively look for one and manually run it | 06:15 |
| _jeremy | ah, thats good | 06:15 |
| _jeremy | and no spyware for linux correct? | 06:15 |
| lscd | as for spyware, there's not any for linux - closest we have are rootkits, andn you can use chkrootkit, but that's next to useless, as any good rootkit will hide from it - they're fairly rare, and if you keep your system up to date should be a non-issue | 06:16 |
| lscd | those tend to be installed by hand by script kiddies | 06:17 |
| lscd | odds are excellent you won't get one even if you don't stay up to date [average time for an unpatched linux box to get compromised is fairly high, and ubuntu doesn't run any servers by default] , but it's a good idea to anyhow | 06:18 |
| _jeremy | yea, i was reading the other day that an average windows compromise time is 10 minutes, where as it is measured in months with linux | 06:19 |
| lscd | yeah | 06:19 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | supernix: pardon? | 07:27 |
| supernix | I told him I doubted that Kubuntu had any security issues and that he should investigate his side more to see how they got in | 07:28 |
| supernix | The person uploaded some files somehow that allowed the hacker to take over the peoples Windows box if they went to that page | 07:28 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | supernix: a Linux server? | 07:29 |
| supernix | Then it created some sort of bot net out of them all | 07:29 |
| supernix | Yes | 07:29 |
| supernix | this is the kernel he is running 2.4.21-20.0.1.ELsmp | 07:29 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | Kubuntu has the same level of security problems (if not less) as any other Linux distro. | 07:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | oh, that's his fault | 07:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | if he's runnning 2.4 he deservs to burn | 07:30 |
| supernix | is 2.4 a security hazard ? | 07:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | well, from what you have told me it sounds like it's not kubuntus fault | 07:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | 2.4 has lots of known security holes, that cause lots of problems | 07:31 |

| supernix | I told him there is or should be no way to brute force guess the password any good security setup should detect that | 07:31 |
| supernix | at least that is what I think | 07:32 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | if your password got sniffed that's tricky, it's not necesarily your fault or his. | 07:32 |

| nikkia | then, before starting the burn process, it'd look at the process table, see autofs is running, and run the disable script, then after the burn is finished, it'd run the matching enable script to reenable it | 11:42 |
| nikkia | it wouldn't be a huge amount of code to add to k3b, the hardest bit would probably be modifying the k3b preferences to present the list | 11:42 |

| hussam | nikkia; I installed autofs, do I need to reboot and is there anything that needs to be configured? | 11:50 |
| nikkia | hussam: you shouldn't need to reboot, but it will need to be configured, yes | 11:51 |
| hussam | nikkia: how? | 11:51 |
| nikkia | hussam: however you want, its very personal | 11:51 |
| nikkia | its also pretty complicated :P | 11:51 |
| hussam | i'll log out and log in again | 11:52 |
| nikkia | hussam: if you installed from a repos, i don't know what files it uses, but the default is /etc/auto.* | 11:52 |
| nikkia | erm, thats going to make no difference :P | 11:52 |

| nikkia | hussam, that was a waste of logging out/back in :) | 11:57 |
| hussam | is there some .conf file I need to edit? | 11:59 |
| nikkia | hussam, the default files used by autofs when its built from source are /etc/auto.* if you've installed from the repository, i don't know what files it will be using, let me make it clear though, autofs is *not* easy to configure, which is most likely why [k] ubuntu doesn't install it by default | 12:00 |
| nikkia | as i said, you also need to make sure you disable it before doing things like writing CDs, as otherwise it will interfere and cause the burn to fail | 12:00 |
| nikkia | hussam: yes, lots of them | 12:00 |
| nikkia | at very least, auto.misc, possibly auto.master and fstab | 12:01 |
| nikkia | if you want networking shares auto-mounted too, probably auto.net and auto.smb | 12:02 |

| hussam | nikkia: it said it loaded a kernel module when I did apt-get install autofs | 12:03 |
| nikkia | i wish i'd never mentioned it now :P | 12:05 |

| ztonzy | awake ? :) | 12:36 |
| nikkia | ztonzy: yes | 12:36 |
| nikkia | just burning/printing some cds | 12:36 |
| nikkia | clearing a few gigs off my drive is something i had scheduled for yesterday, but never got around to it :/ | 12:37 |
| ztonzy | nikkia: aah...I replaced kubuntu with debian 2 days ago, and the kde feels way better now and konqueror doesn't slow down anymore with flash | 12:37 |
| ztonzy | ah | 12:37 |
| nikkia | *nod* | 12:37 |
| nikkia | there is something wrong with the konqueror in kubuntu :/ | 12:37 |

| ztonzy | only , so far | 12:38 |
| ztonzy | nikkia: yes | 12:38 |
| nikkia | i haven't had any with LFS, but i don't use konqueror much other than file browsing | 12:38 |

| nikkia | ztonzy: on kubuntu? yes, it certainly crashed browsing files, i'm just saying, i don't use konqueror enough for 'no crashes in a week' to be utterly impressive, but it is most certainly less crashy than kubuntu's konqueror :) | 12:39 |
| ztonzy | nikkia: eh | 12:40 |
| ztonzy | I also burned a Slax live cd...and ran it...seems nice, but it is Slackware based and that's over head - yet | 12:40 |

| luminerd | apokryphos, yea, I am confused heh | 04:43 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, alright I ran the sudo line you told me to run....it's asking me to select a desired X server driver. | 04:43 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: this is to reconfigure your entire X; at one point, it will ask for the mouse stuff | 04:43 |

| luminerd | apokryphos, well I'm not sure what to select here | 04:44 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | what's the question luminerd? | 04:45 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: do you have NVidia? ATI? | 04:45 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, considering the graphics driver is nVidia | 04:45 |
| luminerd | is it nv? | 04:45 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: no, if you've *installed* the nvidia driver, go for "nvidia" | 04:45 |
| apokryphos | below nv | 04:45 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, it's not there | 04:45 |
| luminerd | I didn't install anything, it's fresh | 04:45 |

| apokryphos | You haven't installed it then. Follow these instructions... | 04:45 |
| apokryphos | !nvidia | 04:45 |
| ubotu | [nvidia] http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:45 |
| luminerd | should I install an nvidia driver? | 04:46 |
| luminerd | oy | 04:46 |
| luminerd | so I should control-C it and redo when I have the nVidia driver? | 04:46 |
| apokryphos | Yup. Very simple; you can just fetch it from the repositories | 04:46 |
| apokryphos | Yes | 04:46 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | don't bother | 04:47 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | just do the freeking reconfigure | 04:47 |
| apokryphos | Ctrl-C may not do it, if not... just close. It shouldn't change anything; I believe it writes all the config settings later on | 04:47 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, with command line only? | 04:47 |
| antrix | !list | 04:47 |
| ubotu | somebody said list was at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuFactoids | 04:47 |
| apokryphos | Kamping_Kaiser: might as well get the nvidia stuff done | 04:47 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | yes, tow options at the end | 04:47 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | just hack the file afterward | 04:47 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, ok, how do I close this? | 04:48 |
| apokryphos | Kamping_Kaiser: hacking the file won't add monitor specific settings, which would be a pain by just editing xorg.conf. dpkg-reconfigure can restore these | 04:48 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: just alt+f4 | 04:48 |
| luminerd | oh wow lol | 04:48 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i used dpkg then hacked the file to do what i want - moreor less | 04:48 |

| luminerd | how do I close it? | 04:53 |
| luminerd | I'm used to control-c, control-x, or control-z doing the trick...usually one works...but not this time lol | 04:53 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: there's likely a lock file, but not so sure if we'd really wanna delete that now, as things are genuinely running | 04:55 |
| luminerd | well I'll just reboot k? | 04:55 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: for now it might be worth just using a generic driver, to seeing if your mouse stuff would really work | 04:55 |
| apokryphos | (since that's the key issue here) | 04:55 |

| luminerd | apokryphos, I think the video card's not working either... | 04:56 |
| buz | run out of stuff to download twice already | 04:56 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: your X doesn't work? | 04:56 |
| luminerd | because the view of KDE looks 600x480 or so | 04:56 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: that's fine -- that's easily fixable later. | 04:56 |
| luminerd | ok | 04:56 |
| luminerd | uh | 04:56 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: so just use something like nv or vesa for now | 04:56 |
| luminerd | well I got myself past a lot of screens in the X config screen trying to get out of it | 04:56 |
| luminerd | heh | 04:56 |
| apokryphos | and go through the rest of the steps | 04:56 |
| luminerd | yea I already screwed it up though | 04:57 |
| luminerd | this config definitely won't work | 04:57 |
| apokryphos | how so? | 04:57 |
| luminerd | in fact it won't even let me type anymore XD | 04:57 |
| luminerd | well I accidentally hit enter a few times and ESC seemed to do something bad to it. | 04:58 |

| apokryphos | :| | 04:58 |
| apokryphos | ok | 04:58 |

| luminerd | ok apokryphos | 05:00 |
| luminerd | I'm rebooted. | 05:00 |

| Almindor | buz, the -qt one is from mozilla page, manual install, the ugly GTK one is from packages | 05:15 |
| buz | that is very weird | 05:16 |
| buz | the one from mozilla used gtk for me as well | 05:16 |
| Almindor | buz, and no firefox isn't qt | 05:16 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: so they sent you the router instead? Worth more, surely? | 05:16 |
| buz | maybe you have gtk-qt active for one of them? | 05:16 |
| Almindor | buz, firefox uses javaskript for GUI IIRC | 05:16 |
| Almindor | script :D | 05:16 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the binatone is a 'router' | 05:16 |
| buz | yeah but below that, it currently uses GTK to draw stuff | 05:16 |
| Almindor | buz, depends on what libs it has | 05:16 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, now it wants me to choose my mouse port...would that be /dev/input/mice? | 05:17 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: both are 1 port, but this has wireless built in, whereas the binatone is ether/usb only | 05:17 |
| Almindor | buz, "active" ? | 05:17 |
| buz | well on win it uses win api, on osx aqua | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: generally, yes. | 05:17 |
| luminerd | I think it's psaux but doesn't mice refer to any of them or something? | 05:17 |
| luminerd | I donno | 05:17 |
| buz | as in installed | 05:17 |
| buz | tho gtk qt sometimes works for me, sometimes not, yet is installed all the time | 05:17 |
| luminerd | /dev/input/mice is the default, and it wasn't working before.... | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: so a mistake in your benefit, we hope :P | 05:17 |
| buz | pretty weird piece of code in any case | 05:17 |
| luminerd | so uh, what would you think? | 05:17 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: its really funny too | 05:17 |
| Almindor | buz, I hate gtk itself installed | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: try it, if it doesn't work, just reconfigure | 05:17 |
| luminerd | k | 05:17 |
| Almindor | buz, I'll check for gtk-qt | 05:17 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: they obviously opened the box to put the *single* filter in with the modem | 05:17 |
| buz | well you'll bloody have to to use firefox in any case | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: oh, how many were there? | 05:18 |
| buz | gtk-qt is just some small layer, gtk is still needed | 05:18 |
| luminerd | emulate 3-button mouse...I thought that was for laptops? | 05:18 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: so, why on earth they have my invoiced for a binatone, when the box clearly contains a actiontec | 05:18 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: *1* | 05:18 |
| Almindor | buz, question is if I want to use the packaged one or the manual one | 05:18 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i already have 3 tho, that i bought on monday | 05:18 |

| apokryphos | luminerd: up to you :) | 05:18 |
| luminerd | lol ok | 05:18 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: and i knew that 1 or 2 filters wouldn't be enough to cover the 10m extension to the second phone | 05:19 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: dismisses Ubuntu since it didn't have the latest version of firefox on some particular day | 05:24 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: just skip and go on | 05:24 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: hmm | 05:25 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i sort of understand his point, in a way | 05:25 |
| apokryphos | you can't take one package as being reflective of an entire repository | 05:25 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, ok, write default files section to configuration file? | 05:25 |
| luminerd | says in most cases it should be enabled...am I a 'most' case? | 05:26 |
| apokryphos | yes | 05:26 |
| luminerd | k | 05:26 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, DRI? | 05:26 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: ? | 05:26 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, write default DRI section to config file? again says should be enabled lol | 05:27 |
| apokryphos | yes | 05:27 |
| luminerd | should I just go with all the defaults? | 05:27 |
| apokryphos | generally, yes. | 05:27 |
| luminerd | now it wants an identifier for my monitor...default again? | 05:27 |

| apokryphos | luminerd: well, do you want it to make specific alterations for your exact monitor model | 05:28 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, eh? | 05:29 |
| luminerd | not a clue man, I'll go with the default | 05:29 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: heh. Looks a lot like my old one | 05:29 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the next trick is working out htf to cross compile apps for it :) | 05:29 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: in particular, my IPv6 tunnel :) | 05:29 |
| buz | mhh you could look for linksys wrt54 howtos | 05:29 |
| buz | i think it uses mips core as well | 05:29 |
| nikkia | buz, is it likely to be identical hardware tho ? | 05:29 |
| buz | could be | 05:30 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, are the default video modes good too? | 05:30 |
| buz | you know what wireless yours has? | 05:30 |
| buz | however, the linksys is only router, not modem | 05:30 |
| nikkia | buz, i was thinking if i pulled all of /lib off it, and built gcc 2.95 for the right target, it should be enough | 05:30 |
| nikkia | ah, but i'd be missing /usr/include, gah | 05:30 |
| nikkia | buz, i'm guessing TI | 05:31 |

| luminerd | ok | 05:32 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, ok, I'm through it a | 05:33 |
| buz | ubuntu really could do with a good X configure tool | 05:33 |
| luminerd | *all...should I restart X and hope my mouse works? | 05:33 |
| apokryphos | Basically, yeah. | 05:33 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, negative | 05:34 |
| nikkia | heh, cool | 05:34 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: you restarted your X? | 05:34 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, yea | 05:34 |
| nikkia | its firewall is, surprise surprise, iptables | 05:34 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: ok, then try altering the mouse configurations and/or trying in #ubuntu -- more likely to have luck in there with such issues, as they're not kubuntu-specific | 05:35 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, ok, but every time I ask in there they ignore me :/ | 05:35 |

| buz | i never got to see qt menus | 05:42 |
| Almindor | buz, it depends on who and how the configure script is done | 05:42 |

| Almindor | I think the one for "linux" from mozilla must have both | 05:45 |

| Almindor | should be possible with dynamic loading | 05:46 |
| buz | could be | 05:46 |
| buz | but according to what | 05:46 |
| Almindor | I guess QT is sort of "higher" I dunno | 05:46 |
| Almindor | so it goes down the list like "try qt" then if fail "try gtk2" | 05:47 |
| Almindor | might be the installer does that part | 05:47 |

| mart | blueyed: I mean remembering which packages it installed to satisfy dependencies, and which were explicitly asked for. that way, when you remove something you installed, it will also remove the things that it depends on, if they're not used by something else | 08:32 |

| |rockinnerd| | ThinkPad notebooks, ThinkCentre desktops and other PC products are now products of Lenovo. | 10:35 |
| |rockinnerd| | wtf? | 10:35 |
| wellso | slicslak: yeah, very true. I liked it, although TBH I don't trust Dell | 10:35 |
| mart | maybe an HP with kubuntu? | 10:35 |
| === |rockinnerd| has had a dell 4 4 years now, it's still truckin well | ||
| slicslak | wellso, oh? howcome? | 10:35 |
| jpatrick | Dell means bit** in Dutch | 10:35 |
| gdh | Dell are great as long as you don't ever have to contact them afterwards =) | 10:35 |
| buz | I always thought they missed the first letter. it was certainly meant to be a H | 10:36 |
| gdh | esp. so if you didn't buy through business. | 10:36 |
| wellso | slicslak: problems at work with Dell PC's | 10:36 |
| slicslak | ah | 10:36 |
| wellso | and people wondering why the HD is fucked | 10:36 |
| === mart is using a dell right now, and it crashes if you try to open the CD drive | ||
| === |rockinnerd| needs oxygen! my dog <http://musicalcocaine.kicks-ass.net/jake1.jpg>'s breath stinks! cant breathe! | ||

| gdh | wek, good luck | 10:37 |
| gdh | how's your aim? :) | 10:37 |
| slicslak | i couldn't ever see buying a desktop from them, i've got local suppliers that are better. custom build the things, etc. but for servers and laptops they have treated me nicely thus far. | 10:37 |
| wellso | slicslak: 9300 is VERY nice I agree | 10:37 |
| wellso | bye ppl | 10:37 |

| _kay | On a bad laptop you can toast too. | 10:49 |

| _kay | I decided against PDA.... I am not a person who likes organization | 10:50 |
| _kay | Don't need addressbook permanently, and I have no schedule for most days... so... not PDA, no toaster. | 10:50 |
| gdh | _kay: me neither, but it's a cool toy with ssh | 10:50 |

| mart | ah, I've found setxkbmap | 10:53 |
| _kay | eh, wrong sorry that was mkfontdir | 10:53 |
| _kay | xkbcomp is in xkbutils | 10:53 |
| _kay | Use packages.ubuntu.com to find which one is which | 10:53 |
| mart | _droid_: yeh, my machines broken a few times, I'm happy with that. Just seems unlikely that stuff would disappear, so thought I'd ask | 10:54 |
| _kay | Not all utils are now installed by x-window-system-core | 10:54 |
| _kay | Probably bugs for at least xkbutils | 10:54 |
| _kay | Breezy works OK, only i18n is broken beyond repair for me now (in KDE) | 10:54 |
| mart | yeah, everything seems to work here except keymaps | 10:55 |
| mart | and I've lost virtual terminals | 10:55 |
| _kay | Which chipset? | 10:56 |
| _kay | The keyboard will come back if you install xkbutils and restart X mayhaps | 10:56 |

| ray_ | i found a neat plugin for firefox that integrates kde style.....looks soooooooo much better | 11:45 |
| mart | nikkia: you've surprised yourself? | 11:45 |
| nikkia | mart, no, just discovered the folly of voice recognition | 11:45 |
| ray_ | anybody use anything besides Limewire? | 11:46 |
| mart | :) | 11:46 |
| nikkia | at the most critical part of the map, where i don't trust the AI, and some DH drives past in his chavmobile and the (*&(ing voice recognition recognises the sound as 'move to your sudden death' | 11:46 |
| nikkia | so lo and behold the AI go running into the room that's surrounded by snipers | 11:47 |

| nikkia | ray, yes, i have | 11:49 |
| Aapzak | americas army is rather nice | 11:50 |
| ray_ | Aapzak: you cant respawn like enemy-territory though i hat having to wait until the game ends | 11:50 |
| nikkia | ray, don't get shot then :P | 11:50 |
| Aapzak | :) | 11:50 |
| ray_ | i suck though...lol | 11:50 |
| Aapzak | me too | 11:50 |
| Aapzak | I'm watching all the time :) | 11:51 |
| ray_ | plus 2.4 isnt out yet | 11:51 |
| ray_ | any idea when 2.4 is coming out by the way? | 11:51 |
| Aapzak | but the quality of the game is higher don't you thinkg? | 11:52 |
| CellarDoor | hi all | 11:52 |
| ray_ | no i dont think so....you can do way more in enemy-territory....like air strikes plant mines drive tanks etc | 11:52 |
| CellarDoor | does anyone know how to make gnome apps look better in kde ? | 11:53 |
| Aapzak | allright, isn't E_T not that game that looks like its build 5 years ago? | 11:53 |
| ray_ | CellarDoor: im wondering the same thing...if you find out let me know | 11:53 |
| Aapzak | :) | 11:53 |
| CellarDoor | ok ray_ | 11:53 |
| Aapzak | just don't use them | 11:53 |
| Aapzak | :) | 11:53 |
| CellarDoor | heh | 11:53 |
| ray_ | Aapzak: et looks just as good a AA | 11:53 |
| mart | I think they naturally suck, because they can't get the font dpi right | 11:54 |
| Aapzak | allright, must be some settings in my config then | 11:54 |
| mart | Aapzak: no, it's a gnome bug, they just don't see it that way | 11:54 |
| ray_ | if you could respawn in AA the game would be great | 11:54 |
| Aapzak | there was something about ET which I did not like, dunno what it was. | 11:55 |
| mart | CellarDoor: it is the fonts that look bad/ | 11:55 |
| mart | ? | 11:55 |
| ray_ | Aapzak: have you tried newer versions? | 11:55 |
| Aapzak | I don't think so | 11:56 |
| ray_ | Aapzak: have you tried Cube? | 11:56 |
| Aapzak | are those binaries, or build by me? | 11:56 |
| Aapzak | no | 11:56 |
| Aapzak | Cube? | 11:56 |
| Aapzak | I need screenshots :) | 11:56 |
| CellarDoor | ah fonts have always looked bad with KDE on kubuntu regardless of what Im using, haven't found out how to fix it | 11:56 |
| ray_ | Aapzak: www.cubeengine.com | 11:56 |
| mart | CellarDoor: check that you've got anti-aliasing on, and using something like the bitstream fonts | 11:57 |
| ray_ | Aapzak: its very much like quake 3 | 11:57 |
| mart | CellarDoor: that seems to work for most folk | 11:57 |
| CellarDoor | mart, already on, been through this before - no one seems to be able to help | 11:57 |
| ray_ | key is...not to use gnome apps | 11:58 |
| ray_ | gnome is sooooooooo ugly | 11:58 |
| mart | CellarDoor: sorry, is it just the gnome apps, or do the kde ones also suck? | 11:58 |
| CellarDoor | everything | 11:58 |
| ray_ | everything! | 11:59 |
| ray_ | kde looks great for me | 11:59 |
| CellarDoor | I have to have my desktop as high rez as I can to try to minimize the uglness of the fonts | 11:59 |
| mart | ray_: make up your mind! | 11:59 |
| Aapzak | ray_: I'm more into games like counterstrike or AA, because I don't like looking at weird creatures | 11:59 |
