[12:07] so how do you guys run counterstrike...with cedega? [12:07] CellarDoor: you might get some luck running gnome-control- [12:08] mart: sorry....man === Sputn1k [srqxab@ip-195-14-191-72.bnk.lt] has joined #kubuntu [12:08] When i trying to load win partition i get mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs', how can i install ntfs mode? [12:09] ray_: no problem, I didn't realise you were replying to him, because you replied so fast! === Aapzak [~aapzak@ip44-163-173-82.adsl2.versatel.nl] has joined #kubuntu [12:09] i mean module not mode [12:09] its kde thats the problem, i don't really care if i can't get gnome apps to look better, I just thought It would be nice [12:09] mart: i should have mad myself more clear [12:10] CellarDoor: i cant believe kde looks bad for you....and how do you set your screen to hi-res? [12:10] its the fonts that look bad [12:10] then change them [12:10] CellarDoor: do they look bad when you first log in, or only after you run a gnome app? [12:11] change screen res in control centre-peripherals-display [12:11] cool [12:12] they look bad fullstop - fiddling with anti-aliasing in the control centre does nothing [12:14] CellarDoor: I guess you've seen the "you need to restart applications for font settings to take effect" (or something) dialog box [12:15] yeah been there done that === mart breaks --- eyes hurt [12:16] you guys read the new tux [12:17] ? [12:17] nope [12:17] whats that [12:18] its and online magazine that is sent through email as pdf........they have a good article about the advantages of using debian and ubuntu/kubuntu [12:18] ah rite [12:18] bye [12:21] what do the new kde 3.4.2 packages fix? [12:23] dunno [12:23] I'm adding repo so I can get it [12:24] maybe It will fix my fonts ;) [12:24] frank_: bugs [12:24] lol [12:24] apokryphos: bugs from the last 3.4.2? [12:24] does kcontrol work better? [12:24] frank_: no, from 3.4.1 [12:25] apokryphos: there is a second version of 3.4.2 out today [12:25] if you're talking about the newer packages in the *kubuntu* repository (as opposed to the old ones), then it's just going to be package-related fixes === CellarDoor fires up kynaptic [12:25] well 36 packages changed today [12:26] See the individual package changelogs for more info [12:26] apokryphos: the changelogs are not there [12:27] frank_: erm, of course they are. Whether they are documented to note the fixes is another issue [12:28] Failed to fetch the changelog for karm [12:28] URI was: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/k/kdepim/kdepim_3.4.2-0ubuntu0hoary2/changelog [12:29] frank_: I did say check the individual package changelogs... use apt/synaptic/kynaptic/kpackage [12:29] Ok, not actually sure if Kynaptic can do it actually [12:30] I'm using synaptic. That's where the error came from. I tried "Download changelog" for karm [12:31] it doesn't display the changelog in kynaptic? [12:31] you're also only checking kdepim [12:31] and it doesn't look like there's been another 3.4.2 version of kdepim [12:32] ok, looks like there is, but the changelog isn't showing on that site === sy [~sy@ppp-70-243-94-84.dsl.tulsok.swbell.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:33] does anyone know how to compile files [12:33] in linux [12:33] I don't think kynaptic can see changelogs but I use synaptic all the time anyways. yeah I know there are no changelongs for any of the new packages as far as I can tell [12:33] sy: do you know how to Google? :) [12:33] frank_: there are always changelogs for packages [12:33] kdepim (4:3.4.2-0ubuntu2) [12:34] Add kubuntu_07_korganiser_libraries.diff fix compile order [12:34] Add kubuntu_08_kmail_attachments.diff fix empty attachments http://bugs.k [12:34] de.org/109003 [12:34] mart: how did you get that? [12:35] er, I've got the update and read /usr/share/doc/karm/changelog.Debian.gz but it's also at http://packages.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/k/kdepim/kdepim_3.4.2-0ubuntu1/changelog === CellarDoor [~CellarDoo@d58-104-21-142.dsl.vic.optusnet.com.au] has left #kubuntu [""Righteousness] [12:35] actually, er.... [12:37] that's for breezy, but I guess the packages contain the same fixes [12:37] see also http://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/changelog3_4_1to3_4_2.php [12:38] mart: he's looking for only the changes in the 3.4.2 packages produced originally, and the ones today [12:38] Synaptic doesn't show changelogs like I thought it did... I seem to view them fine in KPackage though [12:39] mart: I already had kde 3.4.2 in hoary. But today, it changed again. I'd like to know what changed between 3.4.2-0ubuntu0-hoary1 and 3.4.2-0ubuntu0-hoary2 [12:39] frank_: have you downloaded it already? [12:39] mart: yeah but not installed [12:40] yes i know how to google [12:40] frank_: oh, easiest thing is to install then read the unpacked changelog [12:40] sy: you didn't say what you wanted to compile [12:40] just 'files' [12:40] and i have looked all over the place but when i get the file where do i download it to my deskto [12:41] mart: I know... but usually you can know before what changed [12:41] desktop* [12:41] sy: read the "INSTALL" file that should come with the package, inside the tar === lgsobalvarro [~lgsobalva@cable200-116-195-39.epm.net.co] has joined #kubuntu [12:42] ok thanks [12:42] i am kinda new to kubuntu [12:42] or linux [12:43] sy: no worries. Check the file provided, it has instructions and a description [12:43] sy: and, what is it that you're trying to compile? === foobrain [~jonas@c-9101e055.014-47-6f736412.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #kubuntu [12:44] sy: It's not often that you really need to compile stuff [12:44] Hello [12:44] Very impressive linux dist [12:44] hello foobrain [12:45] May I ask what compiler I should install? === frank_ takes all the credit ;-) [12:45] I want to be able to build glib for instance [12:45] build-essential is a good bet [12:45] mostly because firefox wont install without it :) [12:45] footbrain install glib, automake, make... [12:46] foobrain: you can get firefox with apt-get or synaptic [12:46] foobrain: you're compiling firefox? [12:46] well i am kinda dumb [12:46] sy: what is it you want to install? [12:46] hi i am trying to make OpenGL work with X. seems i cannot achieve Direct Rendering. I got about 70 fps with glgears and then i trid to set useinternalAGPgart to TRUE then i got about 10x better framerate, stil it sucks and cant even be used for screensavers [12:47] mart: I get an error message when trying to run firefox-install [12:47] airsnort [12:47] frank_: how would I go about getting firefox with apt-get or synaptic? heh [12:47] foobrain: what's wrong with the packaged firefox? why are you trying to compile it? [12:48] mart: I'm not trying to compile it, I'm trying to install it... or am I doing it wrong? [12:48] i love linux and how smooth [12:48] it is [12:48] !repositories [12:48] rumour has it, repositories is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto, or repos [12:48] foobrain: check out this link, then use synaptic to install stuff [12:48] sy: same thing for you too [12:48] foobrain: firefox is in the Ubuntu repositories, there's a binary, so there's no need to install it from the package provided at mozilla.org [12:49] foobrain: just sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox [12:49] thanks guys [12:51] eh, which is best, the synaptic or apt-get? [12:52] I'm confused... hehe [12:52] silly me [12:52] will the ubuntu repo allow me to install dev apps? [12:52] another question, what [12:52] 's the default root pw? [12:53] I can't recall setting one when I installed the os [12:53] Synaptic and APT are the same thing. Synaptic is just the GUI front-end of apt [12:53] oh, roger that [12:53] There is no root password in Ubuntu [12:53] !rootsudo [12:53] somebody said rootsudo was at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo [12:54] aha... interesting [12:54] Install dev apps...? What? === wellso [~wellso@62-249-204-233.adsl.entanet.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu [12:56] so I can compile and code and stuff [12:57] yes, of course [12:57] I just noticed [12:57] very cool [12:58] kubuntu called it Kynaptic instead of synaptic... confusing [12:58] They're different programs [12:58] ok [01:00] i still prefer synaptic [01:00] Kynaptic is very primitive [01:00] where can I find synaptic then? [01:00] is it gnome only or... ? [01:01] not entirely usable, even, I think. If you need to use a GUI KDE front-end use KPackage [01:01] install synaptic with kynaptic] [01:01] ... it's that easy ey? [01:01] kool [01:01] i just type sudo synaptic [01:01] synaptic works perfectly in kde too [01:01] wellso: you should *never* run GUI apps with plain sudo [01:01] kdesu [01:01] lol still trying remember that one [01:02] =) [01:02] synaptic ends up in the kde system menu [01:02] frank_: it's just about bearable once you have the gtk-qt package [01:03] apokryphos: I don't even have that, does it work well? [01:03] Very well, yes. You should definitely get it. Any GTK apps (if you use any) are pretty ugly otherwise [01:04] apokryphos: I know, they are... but it didn't really bother me but more consistency would be nice [01:04] has it got a package in the rep.? [01:04] Yes. gtk2-engines-gtk-qt [01:05] thanks mate [01:05] I think they might make that a default package installed for Kubuntu. They sure should. [01:05] you can then modify the settings for GTK apps in kcontrol, btw. [01:07] apokryphos: does it pretty up firefox too? [01:07] apokryphos: I mean the save dialog [01:07] To some degree, sure. The package makes it so that all GTK apps use teh Qt style/windec === troglodyt [~user@204-101-205-72.anikast.net] has joined #kubuntu === _frank [~frank@modemcable135.248-130-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #kubuntu [01:13] <_frank> apokryphos: I installed gtk-qt engine but I don't see any difference in synaptic. I restarted kde since then. anything else I need to do? === guilhermee [~guilherme@200.217.142.64] has joined #kubuntu [01:14] _frank: check the settings from kcontrol === Douglas [~Douglas__@st.vincent.static.pa.net] has joined #kubuntu [01:15] so let's say I upgraded to weezy on my laptop and it broke everything, how do I downgrade again? [01:16] Douglas: things *are* broken in breezy. X is currently broken, I believe. [01:16] To downgrade you'd have to do a few force installs with dpkg I guess. Would be quite a big hassle, I'd imagine. [01:17] could you recover your stuff with the live CD and re-install? [01:17] <_frank> apokryphos: Ok I got synaptic to change but it looks worse. It doesn't look like my other kde app either. [01:17] _frank: did you make it use the current Qt theme/windec/font? [01:17] <_frank> yeah [01:17] seriously, that blows, and makes me sad. [01:18] <_frank> as far as the kcontrol settings go yeah [01:18] it's not going to look like them, but it will use the same KDE theme and windec. Are you saying it's not? [01:18] Douglas: whats broken [01:18] ? [01:18] X seems to be broken for starters. [01:18] so just apt-get install xorg --force [01:18] <_frank> Well the basic "empty space" color is different so I don't think its using the same [01:18] or something? [01:18] I changed my sources.list back. [01:19] that would be my plan of attack but I dont really know much about linux [01:19] That won't really do anything, since apt always looks for the latest version. [01:19] oh, can I force it to downgrade a single package? [01:20] hey, could I do, apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop or something like that then re add it? [01:20] with dpkg, I believe you can, yeah. [01:20] could apt remove the package and then re-install from the terminal [01:21] Because I did it to my desktop box to but I havn't reboot yet. [01:21] :) [01:21] the laptop however just pooped all over itself [01:21] when I rebooted it. [01:21] you could use dpkg --install --force-overwrite {somepackage}.deb [01:21] are u running breezy on both? [01:21] I'll try some stuff but I'll probably just reinstall later [01:22] Douglas: reinstalling is probably the best option [01:22] I was, but I changed my sources.list back to hoary and did an apt-get update and and apt-get dist-upgrade [01:22] damn, that makes me super sad. [01:22] I'll work on it. [01:22] Thanks everytone. === _frank [~frank@modemcable135.248-130-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #kubuntu [01:25] <_frank> apokryphos: I got rid of the gtk-qt thing. I like it better this way === foobrain [~jonas@c-9101e055.014-47-6f736412.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #kubuntu [01:26] _frank: I'm kind of wondering if you've got it right, since GTK apps are super ugly without it [01:26] not quite sure how you'd get it wrong though... [01:26] super ugly? [01:26] what makes them look better? [01:26] The style is hard to look at, yes. [01:26] <_frank> apokryphos: it was even worse [01:26] The change in style, and the window decoration. Looks like I'm properly running a GUI app, should I ever venture into it [01:27] how exactly would it be *worse*? Are you saying that your KDE theme is bad? [01:27] what should I install to make them look better? [01:27] maybe you shoulda pulled in a screeny... [01:27] foobrain: gtk2-engines-gtk-qt [01:27] <_frank> apokryphos: I'm using plastik as theme and synaptic was not using that [01:27] apokryphos: where do I find that? I didn't find it in Synaptic [01:28] _frank: then something apparently went wrong [01:28] foobrain: it's in Universe. You'll have to add that repository. See... [01:28] !repositories [01:28] methinks repositories is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto, or repos [01:29] heh, someone left the comma there [01:30] ubotu: no repositories is at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto [01:30] apokryphos: okay [01:30] Ok. Also just realised those are made for gnomers [01:31] foobrain: basically, just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment (remove the "#") from the line that has "Universe" [01:32] ok, let me try that [01:33] You will need to have root permissions to edit the file. So alt+f2 -> kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list [01:33] err.... alt+f2 -> kdesu kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list [01:33] ty [01:34] uncomment all lines with Universe in them+ [01:34] ? [01:34] yes [01:34] in windows if a programs run into trouble you can do ctrl+alt+delete what is the equivalent in linux ? === Kejk_PL [~konrad@ark10.internetdsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu [01:36] Ctrl+Esc for the processes running. Ctrl+Alt+Esc + Click to kill a program, or killall {appname} in konsole [01:36] these should only really be used as a last result [01:39] is there a gallery somewhere that allows you to see the differences between qt and other themes? [01:40] heh... google, sorry for the retarded q [01:41] Qt isn't a theme [01:41] It's a toolkit for C++ [01:41] it's the toolkit that KDE uses [01:41] yeah I know [01:41] many different *kde* themes at http://kdelook.org [01:42] y [01:42] ty [01:42] what do I have to do to see the changes now that I've installed gtk2-engine-qt? [01:43] In theory, just restart the GTK app. In practice, it seems that a lot of people have had to restart KDE [01:43] and how do I restart KDE? reboot? [01:44] foobrain: KMenu -> Logout [01:44] End Current Session [01:44] ok [01:45] can I install more gtk2 themes at the same time and somewhere choose which to use?

[12:13] how come it annoys me? or how come i prefer it ? [12:13] Rogue_Jedi_X: i prefer kmail, because of its good integration in kontact [12:13] Should've been more clear, sorry. The first one [12:14] thunderbird annoys me because of its lousy failure-condition handling [12:14] Ah [12:14] ie, i have a mailbox setup for my work's email server, over VPN [12:14] but since i'm not always connected, if i click on it by mistake in thunderbird, it tries to connect, and takes about 5 minutes to time-out [12:15] but once its timed out on a mailbox, it never tries again until you restart thunderbird [12:15] so i have to restart it if i mistakenly click on my work email mailbox [12:15] I've just recently discovered KMail and thought it may not be that bad, what with its AV and spam-filters and all [12:15] I've been using thunderbird so far [12:15] the impression i always got with kmail, was that it was a better choice than thunderbird if you still use pop3, but for imap, thunderbird does a better job [12:16] maybe thats changed in the last year or so, i don't know [12:16] Thanks for the info [12:16] How come Firefox and Thunderbird icons are different from normal ones? [12:17] what do you mean ? [12:17] you mean the kubuntu icons aren't the official mozilla ones? [12:17] i can't say i've noticed that, but it would probably be because mozilla trademarked the icons [12:17] I mean the missing fox in the Firefox icon (just the globe) and the frozen phoenix (if that's what it is) for thunderbird [12:18] debian distros have a 'problem' with firefox/thunderbird/mozilla, in that the licensing of some aspects (name, icons) isn't 'free' [12:18] which is why its often called 'mozilla-firefox' rather than 'firefox' [12:18] the mozilla org have a rule that if you make a modification to the firefox code, you can't call it 'firefox' anymore [12:19] Ah, I see [12:19] they came to a sort of understanding on calling it 'mozilla-firefox' but its an ongoing issue, lots of heated talk over it [12:20] Make peace, not war [12:21] Anyway, this distro is really great.

I'm a linux noob [05:31] I just installed Kubuntu yesterday [05:31] I was under the impression it was a good dist to be using if you'r a noob [05:32] well that's right, but it's also good for the more experienced user [05:32] anyway [05:32] are you right now at this kubuntu machine running kubuntu ? [05:32] yes [05:32] and there is an console open [05:32] foobrain: have you been using the su command, or just sudo? [05:32] yes [05:33] I've done a "sudo su" in the console as well [05:33] so, try sudo gtk-theme-switch [05:33] and then you are asked for the root passwd [05:33] enter it === BTJustice [~BTJustice@pool-70-104-115-194.chi.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #kubuntu [05:33] and an window should appera [05:33] I think I'll stick to KOffice [05:33] I dont get that far [05:33] Where does Kmail save my mail at?

[05:36] yes [05:36] ?join #ubuntu [05:37] apokryphos: any idea where the source for run-parts might be - the 'hitchhikers' nature of debian source really annoys me [05:37] it's /join [05:37] i know, lol [05:37] nikkia: hm, nope, sorry. [05:37] foobrain: so it doesn't happen again, you might want to do : cd /root ; ln -s /home/foobrain/.Xauthority, where foobrain is your normal user name [05:37] apokryphos: gah, once more bitten by the hypocrisy of debian :( [05:38] nikkia: hypocrisy? Surely they are immune to such a thing! [05:38] oh, ok [05:38] apokryphos: no, for all their espousal of the 'software must be free and open source' policy, try finding source code for their own utils [05:39] apokryphos: its there, its hidden somewhere among 'pool' probably as part of another base package's source, but it sure isn't easy to find [05:39] apokryphos: red hat do a better job of making their source code easy to find, and thats saying something [05:40] should I uninstall openoffice 1.1.3 before installing 2.0? [05:40] there is OO 2 ? [05:40] nikkia: dpkg -S /bin/run-parts, shows it's in debianutils [05:40] nikkia: then apt-get source debianutils [05:41] paines: well, the 2.0 beta... or alpha [05:41] mart, not so easy on a non-debian system [05:41] foobrain: no [05:41] apokryphos: so I just install the 2.0 over the existing 1.1.3? [05:41] mart, i'll have to get debianutils' source from pool,i guess, but as i said, this is hypocrissy, IMO [05:41] foobrain: they're seperate applications [05:41] but I dont want both [05:42] foobrain: then remove the 1.* one [05:42] ok, will do, ty [05:42] (assuming you have deb-src line in sources.list) [05:43] mart, again, not on a debian based system [05:43] is there a website somewhere that list linux device drivers? [05:43] nikkia: then you can use the search http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=%2Fbin%2Frun-parts&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=stable&arch=i386 [05:43] because I have some tv-tuner device I want to see if someone made a driver for it [05:43] and use the source link at the bottom of the package page [05:43] mart, i've already downloaded it, i know my way around pool, however, the point remains, why isn't there a web page for these utils if they (debian) are so vehemantly pro open source ? [05:45] there's no requirement that DFSG software have a website [05:46] mart, and that somehow makes it acceptable that if they claim to be so pro-open source then you have to dig around their ftp ? sorry, i don't buy it, its hypocritical [05:47] I'd have thought most people who had heard of run-parts would know where to find it === m0ns00n^main [~m0ns00n@213.167.96.196] has joined #kubuntu === hinko [~hinko@GN-HE001-COM18-196-225.kabela.oprit.rug.nl] has joined #kubuntu === fromoze [~fromoze@251.Red-83-33-134.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu [05:51] hi [05:53] if I wanted to become a linux developer (develop linux apps) where would be a good place to go? some online references perhaps?

[07:51] oh dear god :P [07:51] something's not right is it [07:51] zzzzzsolt: for reference, my GF6600 gives 4000-5000 fps [07:51] it seems like it's running in software mode [07:52] probably, what's the first line output by glxinfo ?

[10:33] bobbyd: did you try a steady download of a biiiig package? [10:33] say like some iso ? [10:33] it seems to work quite well for me [10:34] buz, yes, I have it working fine on my other pc, this is definitly weird behaviour [10:34] mhh it seems quite accurate on my box [10:34] buz, the weird thing is that they both run kubuntu :) [10:34] I'll reinstall it [10:34] different hardware maybe [10:34] gah!!! [10:34] i forgot that unix file timestamps suck! [10:35] hmm [10:35] i rather like the concept of timestamps [10:35] buz, if they work, yes [10:35] muuuch better than standard times ;) [10:35] is there anywhere i can download the qt-devel package for kubuntu? [10:35] buz, however, i challenge you to find the creation time of /var/log/messages [10:36] buz, the problem is, you can't, at all [10:36] the 3 timestamps available are all updated each time its written to [10:36] i think you can === mikko [~mikko@hki2-4-1-c1.hoasnet.inet.fi] has joined #kubuntu [10:36] buz, no, you can't :/ [10:36] at least on freebsd, there is a ctime in the struct ;) [10:36] buz, ctime isn't creation time === Will_ [9010@quake.swe.net] has joined #kubuntu [10:36] buz, ctime is 'control time' [10:37] buz, its the time the inode was last changed [10:37] that is weird [10:37] buz, try ls -l --time=atime /var/log/messages (last accessed time) [10:37] because on bsd box, it would show quite sensible stuff [10:37] then try ls -l --time=ctime /var/log/messages [10:37] they'll be identical (last time a message was written to the file) [10:38] actually not [10:38] atime is last READ from it ;) [10:38] buz, yes, but it gets updated when the file is written, too [10:38] buz, as i said, unix...file timestamps... suck :) [10:38] no it does not [10:39] accessed and modified are ok, but you *need* a created time too [10:39] before i run tail messages [10:39] it atime was 5 days old ;) [10:40] buz, actually, i dunno why, but that particular file is odd on mine, others show atime's older than ctime's [10:40] but either way, ctime still doesn't show created time :( [10:41] iirc, there *IS* a way to get it from the filesystem [10:41] but it only works on ext2/3 filesystems, and is non-portable === Will_ [9010@quake.swe.net] has joined #kubuntu [10:44] gah, how can ubuntu have all the qt3 packages and not have the qt-devel package? [10:44] Jeezis: because its not called qt-devel [10:44] nikkia: ..oh :-p what is it called? [10:44] nikkia: maybe you have something watching it? [10:45] Jeezis, most people dont need the devel packages [10:45] libqt3-mt-dev [10:45] bobbyd: i need them to install qtella [10:45] thanks === buz thinks that if you cant find qt3-dev you probably dont need it [10:45] nope, no qt3-dev [10:46] i need the qt headers [10:46] buz, regardless of whether its being watched or not, it helps me not with determining age of file :P [10:46] of course, apt-get build-dep is my friend ;) === equex [~skldhxr@128.39.125.52] has joined #kubuntu [10:46] buz, its going to involve tracking by hand with a berkley db keyed with filename, i can tell [10:46] nikkia: actually, it would be the same age as the last mtime of messages.0 hehe === Will_ [9010@quake.swe.net] has joined #kubuntu [10:46] buz, erm, no, it wouldn't [10:47] why not [10:47] buz, i have no log rotation here, that's what i'm writing right now :P [10:47] you still on your LFS trip [10:47] buz, even if i wasn't, the standard rotatelogs are too limited [10:48] good enough for me === Will_ [9010@quake.swe.net] has joined #kubuntu === zAo^ [~zao@zAo.xs4all.nl] has joined #kubuntu === Will_ [9010@quake.swe.net] has joined #kubuntu === mikko [~mikko@hki2-4-1-c1.hoasnet.inet.fi] has joined #kubuntu [10:57] is there a subversion shell ingegration app in Linux? like tortoise svn for win32?
