| LinKage | wow i lost u what is that? | 12:02 |
|---|---|---|
| PieD | check the file /etc/modules : is there a line sk98lin in the file ? | 12:02 |
| PieD | I give you a command to open a blacklist of drivers | 12:03 |
| PieD | and I ask you to use the program opened by the command to add a simple line at the end of the file : | 12:03 |
| PieD | sk98lin | 12:03 |
| PieD | I also ask you to look at the file /etc/modules : is there a line containing sk98lin in that file ? | 12:04 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | Am I missing something or is Konversation missing the option to tell it how many times it should try reconnecting? | 12:04 |
| LinKage | omg kate crashed | 12:04 |
| LinKage | :S | 12:04 |
| PieD | LinKage: I'm fed up with that problem : | 12:04 |
| LinKage | im also | 12:04 |
| PieD | sudo "echo >> /etc/hotplug/blacklist" | 12:05 |
| LinKage | tell me though.. | 12:05 |
| LinKage | where is the menu Network device support ? | 12:05 |
| PieD | it is in the kernel configuration | 12:05 |
| PieD | I won't explain you how to access this yet | 12:05 |
| LinKage | where is the kernel configuration ? | 12:05 |
| LinKage | just tell me it is a menu | 12:05 |
| LinKage | i just have to try this.. | 12:05 |
| PieD | if you want to waste your time on something you can't do without internet access, then search how to compile a kernel on google | 12:06 |
| LinKage | ohh come on.. | 12:06 |
| LinKage | what is this.. | 12:06 |
| LinKage | just tell me where is that menu | 12:06 |
| LinKage | the drivers had an .htm with instructions ill try to follow it | 12:06 |
| LinKage | i also sent u that.. | 12:07 |
| PieD | I can't tell you since it is not installed by default with kubuntu | 12:07 |
| PieD | it needs the kernel sources | 12:07 |
| PieD | time | 12:07 |
| PieD | and some knowledge | 12:07 |
| LinKage | you can either help follow the instruction or just tell me where is that menu | 12:08 |
| LinKage | i cant just sit like that, doing nothing,, | 12:08 |
| LinKage | i wanna try | 12:08 |
| thoreauputic | LinKage: I thought we established that you already had the driver/module - was it the wrong one ? | 12:09 |
| PieD | but I can't explain you !!!!! | 12:10 |
| LinKage | ok ok | 12:10 |
| LinKage | chill mate | 12:10 |
| LinKage | and thanks for all the help | 12:10 |
| LinKage | :) | 12:10 |
| PieD | a few years ago, when I had time to play with such things, I never succeeded in compiling the kernel | 12:10 |
| PieD | and I don't want to waste time in searching it yet | 12:10 |
| LinKage | kk i understand, no worries | 12:11 |

| dinocore | can anyone recomend a good bittorrent client for kubuntu? | 01:05 |
| arcanistherogue | i dunno? | 01:05 |
| arcanistherogue | people like azureus, but i had errors with it | 01:06 |
| EasterSunshine | azureus | 01:06 |
| dinocore | yea i havent had good experence with azureus | 01:06 |
| dinocore | i want something simple | 01:06 |
| EasterSunshine | arcanistherogue, how would you get one to me? | 01:06 |
| arcanistherogue | how would i get what? | 01:07 |
| EasterSunshine | a live cd, you said you have 15 | 01:07 |
| EasterSunshine | oh, nvm, i misread | 01:07 |
| arcanistherogue | yeah, sorry | 01:07 |
| arcanistherogue | i ordered them | 01:07 |
| EasterSunshine | i thought it said, "if you need them" | 01:07 |
| arcanistherogue | and they arent kubuntu | 01:07 |
| arcanistherogue | 12 are ubuntu, one is slax, 1 is knoppix, and one is another distro i forgot about. | 01:08 |
| arcanistherogue | the others i burned myself htough | 01:08 |
| EasterSunshine | 12 ubuntus? | 01:08 |
| arcanistherogue | i think its SuSE, the last one | 01:08 |
| arcanistherogue | yeah :D | 01:08 |

| dinocore | so anyone know a nice lite weight bittorrent client? | 01:09 |
| arcanistherogue | well, does anyeon know how to reinstall GRUB bootloader if i install windows XP? | 01:10 |
| ms12 | after installing window put your ubuntu installation cd at the boot prompt type rescue | 01:11 |
| ms12 | let the cd boot normall and set everything like normal install it will give you a command prompt | 01:11 |
| === evanmccone [n=evanmcco@26.Red-83-43-160.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ms12 | at the command prompt type grub-install /dev/hda if ubuntu is on the first harddisk hdb if it is on the second | 01:12 |
| arcanistherogue | i actually have it on sda | 01:13 |
| arcanistherogue | sata drive | 01:13 |
| ms12 | so you have /dev/sda | 01:13 |
| arcanistherogue | indeed | 01:13 |
| arcanistherogue | anyway | 01:13 |
| ms12 | i think will work this way too | 01:13 |
| ms12 | just after you do that | 01:13 |
| arcanistherogue | wait a minute | 01:13 |
| ms12 | edit menu.list to include window in the grub menu | 01:13 |
| arcanistherogue | could i use a live CD | 01:13 |
| arcanistherogue | just mount sda | 01:13 |
| arcanistherogue | then go root | 01:14 |
| arcanistherogue | if you can | 01:14 |
| arcanistherogue | and then install GRUB | 01:14 |
| ms12 | try it might work | 01:14 |
| arcanistherogue | well, What I want to do is install Gentoo onto hda, but for some reason (its an IDE drive) windows made me make a partition on it. I found a 40 GB drive that is ide, so im gonna put windows on that, but then i dont want to reformat again. So i'm going to have to get GRUB back. | 01:15 |
| arcanistherogue | I don't know why windows said so, but it said i needed a partition on the master IDE drive also | 01:15 |
| arcanistherogue | I just want it to run some of my games, they arent as good as cedega. | 01:16 |
| arcanistherogue | and photoshop. | 01:16 |
| arcanistherogue | *in cedega | 01:16 |
| ms12 | how many harddisks you have | 01:16 |
| arcanistherogue | I have a sata drive, which is my main one, and 2 IDE drives, a 17 GB master and a 5 GB slave (im replacing the slave) | 01:17 |
| arcanistherogue | im gonna make it a 40 GB master and 17 GB slave | 01:17 |
| ms12 | and where do you have ubuntu now and where is window | 01:17 |
| arcanistherogue | both are on the SATA one, its 80 GB. A bit mroe than half is in windows xp (45 GB) and the rest is kubuntu. | 01:18 |
| arcanistherogue | i can then use the full sata drive for llinux, and then the rest just to fool around with other operating systems. | 01:18 |
| ms12 | so just running grub-install /dev/sda will work then | 01:18 |
| arcanistherogue | hmm | 01:19 |
| arcanistherogue | wait, if i were to use the install CD to reinstall grub | 01:19 |
| ms12 | i am not familiar though with the live cd :( | 01:19 |
| arcanistherogue | would i have to install all the packages all over again | 01:19 |
| ms12 | no you will use it in rescue mode | 01:19 |
| arcanistherogue | oh, how do i do that? | 01:19 |
| ms12 | thats why i said when it first boot type rescue | 01:19 |

| LinKage | its my first time using linux and i dont know nothing | 02:23 |

| orkid | do you have your other computer near you? | 02:23 |
| LinKage | the one using now | 02:23 |

| orkid | the one that your marvell nic is on | 02:24 |
| orkid | NIC == network interface card. | 02:24 |
| LinKage | its next me | 02:24 |
| orkid | okay. do you have a terminal there? | 02:24 |
| LinKage | yes | 02:24 |
| orkid | okay. in the terminal type in: | 02:24 |
| orkid | sudo modprobe sk98lin | 02:25 |
| orkid | (to load the sk98lin module into your kernel) | 02:25 |
| orkid | tell me when you're done. | 02:25 |

| orkid | sudo ifconfig eth0 up | 02:28 |

| LinKage | if i go where i have unzip the drivers | 02:32 |
| LinKage | i open a terminal | 02:32 |
| LinKage | and launch the install | 02:33 |
| LinKage | during installation all goes ok | 02:33 |
| LinKage | except one | 02:33 |
| LinKage | something wrong with the kernel headers | 02:33 |
| LinKage | error is cannot compile kernel | 02:33 |
| orkid | LinkKage: From here I would google for the solution... Get the exact name and model of your NIC chip...possibly from your laptop manufacturer, then google around for that model and linux at the same time, this might give you an idea of what module you need, because sk98lin doesn't seem to work for you. | 02:34 |
| orkid | laptops are more temperamental than PCs too, so that might be a part of the issue. | 02:35 |
| LinKage | that module came on the cd with mobo | 02:35 |

| LinKage | no | 02:36 |
| LinKage | there is no folder modules under /lib | 02:37 |
| orkid | that's odd, as far as i know the kernel usually stores modules there. | 02:38 |
| orkid | rather, kernel modules are usually stored there. | 02:38 |
| LinKage | maybe thats the problem | 02:38 |

| LordGrunt | i cant install anything new :( | 09:19 |
| bjv | strange, my version have all tried to write their stuff to ~/.mozillla/ | 09:20 |
| LordGrunt | your version is from apt-get or official firefox biuld? | 09:20 |
| bjv | uh.. bothish | 09:20 |
| hussam | LordGrunt: what extension is that. all extensions for firefox 1.0.x should install in your profile dir | 09:20 |

| hussam | LordGrunt: what are they? | 09:21 |
| LordGrunt | right after i hit install, it just shows window with list of extensions or motives and new doesnt appear there | 09:22 |
| LordGrunt | hussam: that doesnt matter, i try many and get the same result | 09:23 |
| hussam | LordGrunt: I think you have to run firefox at least once as root before you can install any extensions. | 09:23 |
| bjv | :/ i dont think i've ever run firefox as root. | 09:24 |
| bjv | is this an apt-gotten version we are talking about? | 09:24 |
| LordGrunt | yep, that would be knda wicked solution | 09:24 |
| LordGrunt | yes, from debs | 09:24 |
| hussam | if build from mozilla.org , then it has to be ran as root once. | 09:24 |
| hussam | I wouldn't know since I make my own firefox builds. | 09:25 |
| bjv | oh, :P you are right. i am now remembering the steps i went thru installing from the nightlys or w/e | 09:25 |
| LordGrunt | weird, right now hitting xpi on webpage doesnt do *anything* | 09:28 |
| LordGrunt | hell, i better go back to mozilla, at least it works | 09:29 |
| hussam | LordGrunt: close firefox, do sudo firefox, close it again | 09:30 |
| hussam | LordGrunt: run it again then try reinstalling your extensions | 09:30 |
| bjv | by default arent extension installs only allowed from localhost? | 09:32 |

| PieD | nikkia: I fear we gave him a bad feeling of linux :/ | 02:33 |
| nikkia | pied, that always happens with driver issues, not much 'we' can do about it | 02:34 |
| PieD | linux has issues with drivers | 02:34 |
| nikkia | pied, its the same when you tell someone 'oh dear' when they say they have an ATI card, a few hours later, and they usually go away in a huff | 02:34 |
| PieD | the problem is that the driver is relying on the kernel | 02:34 |
| PieD | the driver can't be copied directly to another machine | 02:35 |
| nikkia | i honestly can't understand WHY the driver was that way | 02:35 |
| paines | AnHu, okay. but it is possible to install from the live cd ? | 02:35 |
| PieD | even if it's the kernel is the same version, it won't work if it isn't exactly the same compilation | 02:35 |
| PieD | and that's bad | 02:35 |
| nikkia | tbh, the best advice to give him, would probably have been to apt-get the kernel sources, rip out the old sk98lin directory contents and replace them with the vendor supplied kernel directory, and just let kubuntu build a new kernel package | 02:36 |
| nikkia | but even thats a lot of work, and a lot of places to go wrong | 02:36 |
| AnHu | paines: no | 02:36 |
| PieD | without internet connexion ? | 02:36 |
| nikkia | pied, linux-sources might be on the cd, if not, its just one .deb to download | 02:37 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: here we go, d-link RTL8139 based card, 4.50 from ebuyer | 02:37 |
| PieD | kernel sources are quite big, even compressed | 02:37 |
| nikkia | pied, he had a connection on the other machine, and it's less than the size of a blank CD :P | 02:38 |

| PieD | nikkia: aren't you disturbed by the fact that a network cardwindows driver is often easier to install under linux using ndiswrapper than a native linux driver ? | 02:45 |
| nikkia | pied, i'm disturbed that a network card vendor would supply native linux drivers that are clearly modified versions of the ones in the kernel, but there appears to be no effort to get those drivers integrated into the kernel itself | 02:47 |
| nikkia | especially given that any driver on a CD is going to be a few months old, and the drivers still aren't in the latest kernel | 02:47 |
| nikkia | pied, even if the company somehow thinks they can take GPL drivers and modify them and not release them as GPL, the source is there, legally they ARE GPLed whether the company believes so or not, so there is no justification in not adding them | 02:48 |

| nikkia | they were one of the first that actually made use of DMA too | 02:55 |
| nikkia | then the 3c509 happened | 02:55 |
| nikkia | and it became THE ethernet card to use | 02:55 |
| === setite wonders what the hell these people are talking to... and limps over to #ubuntu where he understands | ||
| buz | of course | 02:57 |
| buz | these days i just stick with the onboard stuff | 02:57 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: heh, ebuyer have their own RTL8319 based card | 02:58 |
| nikkia | cost.... 1.69 | 02:58 |
| apokryphos | hahaha | 02:58 |
| buz | even 4 years ago i could get the thigns for 4$ in hongkong | 02:58 |
| buz | retail, no less | 02:59 |
| apokryphos | buz: I think travelling there to get it to save the hassle (of before) is a step too far :P | 02:59 |
| nikkia | buz, the problem with on-board 'net, is that you get idiot companies that try to put some fancy chipset on the board | 02:59 |
| buz | true | 02:59 |
| buz | but just to make the point :) | 02:59 |
| nikkia | buz, for example, my asus board *should* have an E1000 | 02:59 |
| apokryphos | yah, I know. | 02:59 |
| nikkia | does it ? no, asus thought that they'd disable it and replace it with a broadcom gig lan for the 'deluxe' version | 02:59 |
| nikkia | thankfully, its a broadcom chip that has pretty much always 'just worked' in linux | 03:00 |

| jpatrick | What KDE/X? | 03:33 |
| setite | x | 03:33 |
| jpatrick | oh | 03:33 |
| nikkia | setite, [k] ubuntu doesn't use xfree anyway, it uses xorg | 03:34 |
| setite | when i try to configure my desktop one option is unavailable because it says i need x server 4.3 or up | 03:34 |
| nikkia | so you should be asking how to upgrade to 6.8.2 :) | 03:34 |
| setite | i said 4.3 or up | 03:35 |
| nikkia | (which it already is, iirc) | 03:35 |
| setite | which is what the thing says... so whatvver i should update to is what i want | 03:35 |
| setite | i want newness! | 03:35 |

| PieD | I'm from France | 04:09 |
| PieD | and yes, gtk is slow | 04:09 |
| Jatos | kk, I think you said before didn't you | 04:09 |
| PieD | it'll be even slower with gtk 2.8 because of cairo ! | 04:09 |
| PieD | hopefully, cairo can use hardware acceleration through opengl | 04:10 |
| Jatos | which part of france do yuo come from pied? | 04:10 |
| PieD | so it may be perhaps faster | 04:10 |
| PieD | North | 04:10 |
| PieD | (from Lille...) | 04:10 |
| Jatos | ah | 04:10 |
| sproingie | yes but in the meantime they'll show hci studies that say sluggish responsiveness is a good thing | 04:10 |

| sproingie | now it's all a big apple homage | 04:11 |
| setite | whats the command to reconfigure the xserver | 04:11 |
| setite | as many times as i need it i still cant remember i | 04:12 |
| Jatos | erm.... | 04:12 |
| setite | t | 04:12 |
| apokryphos | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 04:12 |
| sproingie | Jatos: gtk is actually pretty decent on linux. it's *horrid* on windows | 04:12 |
| PieD | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 04:12 |
| PieD | too late :/ | 04:12 |
| apokryphos | sproingie: even worse on kde | 04:12 |
| sproingie | every gtk app i have on windows is buggy and crashy and slow | 04:12 |
| apokryphos | unless youe vade it with the engines pack | 04:12 |
| Jatos | well is even worse because I am using it on a 100mhx libretto laptop | 04:12 |
| sproingie | well kde doesnt really run on win unless you count cygwin | 04:12 |
| sproingie | and i don'tt | 04:12 |
| apokryphos | sproingie: firefox has always been reasonably stable for me | 04:12 |
| sproingie | apokryphos: firefox barely uses gtk | 04:13 |
| sproingie | it uses it a lot more on linux | 04:13 |
| apokryphos | sproingie: no, I meant gtk apps on kde... horrid :P | 04:13 |
| sproingie | and guess what, ff on linux is worse | 04:13 |
| Jatos | it doesn't use GTK at all on linux (firefox) | 04:13 |
| nikkia | sproingie: what about kvirc ? | 04:13 |
| Jatos | *on windows, its does use it on linux doh | 04:13 |
| apokryphos | I wouldn't have known. :| | 04:13 |
| sproingie | i thought it used some gtk for canvases, really low level stuff | 04:14 |
| sproingie | i guess they ported it to native a while ago | 04:14 |
| === sproingie uses konversation, and it's pretty krashy | ||
| sproingie | kvirc i never really liked that much | 04:14 |
| Jatos | no, gtk, windows and firefox don't go to together, if does, why does it run on windows without gtk installed? | 04:14 |
| PieD | report bugs ! | 04:14 |
| === jpatrick uses konversation and it's okay | ||
| nikkia | sproingie: the point is, its a native KDE app that runs under windows, without cygwin hacks | 04:15 |
| Jatos | can I get kate ot run on windows? | 04:15 |
| PieD | sproingie: off course, everybody knows developers release crashy apps | 04:15 |
| nikkia | sproingie: apparently using some GPL-only Qt for windows distribution that doesn't exist officially | 04:15 |
| sproingie | spiffy. let's get the rest of kde ported, now that qt win32 has its license sorted out :) | 04:15 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: how does it manage that? | 04:15 |
| PieD | Jatos: no | 04:15 |
| sproingie | nikkia: qt win32 has the same license as the xlib version now i believe | 04:15 |
| nikkia | sproingie: only Qt4 | 04:16 |
| sproingie | ah | 04:16 |
| Jatos | damn because notepad++ sucks | 04:16 |
| nikkia | sproingie: kvirc is (naturally) a Qt3 app | 04:16 |
| Jatos | btw, I have cygwin installed | 04:16 |
| nikkia | for which there is officially no GPL libs for windows | 04:16 |
| sproingie | Jatos: notepad++ is pretty good for me ... what do you recommend that's fast? | 04:16 |
| Jatos | kate..., or textpad if you want to bu | 04:16 |
| Jatos | y the program | 04:16 |
| setite | anyone have an MX510 or mx500 mouse with the back and forward buttons working? | 04:17 |
| sproingie | textpad wasnt so great. kate would be kind of heavyweight on windows | 04:17 |
| apokryphos | sproingie: Kate is the best 8) | 04:17 |
| nikkia | sproingie: i'm guessing the kvirc people arranged some private 'non-commercial' license with trolltech for Qt on windows | 04:17 |
| nikkia | (and it does put '[non commercial] ' at the start of the title bar :) | 04:17 |
| === antrix [n=antrix@cm173.gamma93.maxonline.com.sg] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| sproingie | nikkia: possibly. or it's just a rogue port and troll isn't enforcing it because they've already opened qt4 | 04:17 |
| nikkia | which is really annoying, because it breaks the taskbar features of kvirc :/ | 04:17 |
| sproingie | or they're using a retrograde version of qt | 04:18 |
| sproingie | let's hope for a windows port of kde4 | 04:18 |
| nikkia | lets not :P | 04:18 |
| Jatos | lol, I woulf love kde4 for win | 04:19 |
| nikkia | i'd rather the time and effort be expended on making it better on linux | 04:19 |
| setite | hey the mouse program is scewy i just realized | 04:19 |
| sproingie | yes, and by sucking in 10s of thousands more users, you'll get more support as well | 04:19 |
| setite | it says that it recognizes a usb logitech mouse.. and that the driver loaded but it cant access the mouse... possiblt due to permissions problems | 04:20 |
| sproingie | i dont get a choice what desktop to run at work, but if i can run konqueror as my file manager, i might actually be more productive | 04:20 |
| setite | how do i get my main user root power over my mouse | 04:20 |
| sproingie | you don't have gpm running or anything, do you? | 04:20 |
| Jatos | anyoe think we could get micrfosoft todo a windows port for unix... | 04:21 |
| Jatos | I wish... | 04:21 |
| nikkia | sproingie: you really think that a windows port of kde would attract thousands of users? i have my doubts | 04:21 |
| Jatos | i don't... | 04:21 |
| Jatos | Idon't have my doubts that is | 04:22 |
| nikkia | jatos, just because YOU would use it, doesn't mean thousands of others would | 04:22 |
| Jatos | I am not so sure, lets face it what would you prefer as a shell, explore.exe or kde? | 04:23 |
| sproingie | microsoft HAS a windows "port" for unix | 04:23 |
| sproingie | it's called mainwin, they bought it from mainsoft | 04:23 |
| sproingie | they used it for IE for unix | 04:23 |
| nikkia | jatos, 99.99999% of windows users are happy with explorer, sadly | 04:23 |
| sproingie | not that they plan on using it any more | 04:23 |
| Jatos | how d oyou get it? | 04:23 |
| nikkia | jatos, the rest probably already use one of the free shell replacements that has more eye candy than KDE anyway :) | 04:23 |
| sproingie | nikkia: i'd say at least 1/5th of windows users prefer an alternate browser | 04:23 |
| nikkia | sproingie: we're talking about the windows interface, not web browsing | 04:24 |
| sproingie | be it firefox, mozilla, netscape, or opera | 04:24 |
| Jatos | yeah but consider the fact that a lot of linux users are forced to use windows for something | 04:24 |
| sproingie | oh. i actually dont think explorer is all that bad. konq of course blows it away | 04:24 |
| nikkia | jatos, if they have any control over installing software, they'd have installed linux already | 04:24 |

| sproingie | i wouldn't need to replace explorer.exe with konq, just run konq | 04:25 |
| Jatos | lol, well in my home I have to have at least one windows pc accessible to me to run everything I needc running | 04:25 |

| nikkia | jatos, a chatroom that is a biased sample space | 04:27 |
| sproingie | nikkia: kde as a desktop on windows, not a chance. kde apps i can see tho | 04:27 |
| Jatos | yes true... | 04:27 |
| sproingie | konqueror i can definitely see | 04:27 |
| sproingie | as file manager and browser | 04:27 |
| gemuend | I dont want a windows port | 04:27 |
| Jatos | providing someone fixed its FTP capablilities | 04:27 |
| sproingie | Jatos: can't be half as bad as explorer's ftp | 04:28 |
| sproingie | explorer's ftp doesn't even have functional drag and drop to the desktop | 04:28 |
| Jatos | as a webmaster I can tell you konqueroro is worse than IE for FTP | 04:28 |
| sproingie | it's single threaded and locks up explorer while it's loading | 04:28 |
| nikkia | sproingie: you still run a single explorer thread? how quaint :) | 04:29 |
| gemuend | maybe the windows port will attract people | 04:29 |
| gemuend | but i imagine it will attract the _wrong_ people | 04:29 |
| sproingie | explorer always runs as at most two processes | 04:29 |
| nikkia | sproingie: erm, no | 04:29 |
| sproingie | one for the desktop, one for the windows | 04:30 |
| nikkia | sproingie: there is an option to set it to use a process per window | 04:30 |
| nikkia | everyone with any sense enables it, as it stops explorer blocking/crashing-so-much | 04:30 |
| sproingie | i thought that stopped working ever since ie5 | 04:30 |
| === __Ace__ [n=love@h55l211.delphi.afb.lu.se] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| sproingie | i must have it on then, since file copy ops don't block other explorer windows | 04:30 |
| sproingie | but ftp is magical, it reaches out and hoses everything til it connects | 04:31 |
| buz | ftp is about the crappiest protocol in use | 04:31 |
| Jatos | tell me about it buz | 04:31 |
| sproingie | i would rather see good webdav support in konq | 04:31 |
| apokryphos | erm, why exactly? | 04:31 |
| buz | webdav support is ok | 04:31 |
| sproingie | ftp i'm willing to relegate to the commandline forever | 04:31 |
| nikkia | i miss fsp | 04:31 |
| buz | ftp has weird idea about using ports, really | 04:31 |
| sproingie | ftp is older than tcp/ip | 04:31 |
| Jatos | when I get my dedi, and whens I don't know I will use NFS to communicate with it | 04:32 |
| sproingie | it made sense back when it was first around | 04:32 |
| nikkia | jatos, erk, NFS is a really bad choice | 04:32 |
| nikkia | jatos, NFS has *really* bad failure modes | 04:32 |
| Jatos | y? | 04:32 |
| sproingie | nikkia: no, it has bad failure modes on linux | 04:32 |
| sproingie | linux nfs is wretched awful | 04:32 |
| nikkia | sproingie: no, it has bad failure modes, period | 04:32 |
| sproingie | on freebsd it's merely tolerable | 04:32 |
| Jatos | what are nfs's failure points? | 04:32 |
| sproingie | it's damn fine on sun | 04:33 |
| nikkia | sproingie: i've used it on solaris networks, it has bad failure modes there too | 04:33 |
| sproingie | nikkia: no worse than cifs | 04:33 |
| buz | nfs doesnt even have auth | 04:33 |
| nikkia | jatos, if the remote host goes down, there is a 50/50 chance it'll zombify processes | 04:33 |
| buz | what kind of braindeadness ist hat | 04:33 |
| sproingie | buz: patently untrue | 04:33 |
| buz | yeah like auth on the client was worth a dime | 04:33 |
| sproingie | nfs supports kerberos and even smb auth | 04:33 |
| nikkia | jatos, and there isn't a guarentee the processes de-zombify if/when the remote host comes back up | 04:33 |
| sproingie | not on LINUX mind you | 04:34 |
| sproingie | linux has one of the worst nfs implementations in existence | 04:34 |
| buz | not on the bsds either | 04:34 |
| nikkia | sproingie: you need to be using RPC for those | 04:34 |
| sproingie | nfs is itself an RPC thing | 04:34 |
| nikkia | sproingie: and enabling RPC based NFS to get auth, is my idea of backwards security | 04:34 |
| === JensK [n=JensK@p54905B01.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | sproingie: no, it can be RPC or it can work purely in the TCP domain | 04:34 |
| sproingie | nfs generally implies rpc. linux's rpc is of course from the 80's | 04:35 |
| sproingie | sun also fixed that too | 04:35 |
| sproingie | not that RPC is any damn good | 04:35 |
| sproingie | NFS is pretty bad, but done right it's no worse than cifs, and it has some nice stuff like failover and load balancing | 04:35 |
| sproingie | still wouldn't mind seeing stuff like coda get wide use tho | 04:36 |
| buz | if coda actually worked | 04:36 |
| sproingie | maybe see code worked into nfsv5 | 04:36 |
| sproingie | NFS is turning into X really. something old and crusty everyone hates, but able to be replaced at any level | 04:37 |
| Jatos | so what do you think would be the best protocol to d/l andupload from my dedi? | 04:37 |
| buz | sftp | 04:37 |
| buz | or fish | 04:37 |
| Jatos | sftp? | 04:37 |
| sproingie | fish ownz | 04:37 |
| nikkia | yeah, sftp is painless with konqueror's integration | 04:37 |
| sproingie | ah yes, another reason ftp can die with dignity | 04:37 |
| sproingie | sftp | 04:37 |
| buz | fish and sftp, one of the killer features in kde, really | 04:38 |
| Jatos | c an I mount a folder on server onot my local system fs using fish? | 04:38 |
| sproingie | sftp's ok, fish is really clever | 04:38 |
| buz | in konqueror you can | 04:38 |
| sproingie | i wish emacs supported kioslaves | 04:38 |
| buz | fish needs a shell account | 04:38 |
| buz | sftp can be done without shell access | 04:38 |
| sproingie | fish is a lot more reliable than emacs tramp | 04:38 |
| sproingie | despite being the same idea | 04:38 |
| Jatos | ig I buy a dedi I will ssh on it | 04:38 |
| === sproingie has taken to binding an alternate keybinding for "remote save" | ||
| nikkia | sproingie: doesn't tramp support just about everything fish does, anyway ? | 04:39 |
| sproingie | nikkia: yeah but tramp in my experience is REALLY brittle | 04:39 |
| === Almindor [n=Almindor@chello082119110231.chello.sk] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| sproingie | i just use another keybinding now that invokes rsync instead of dealing with the slowness and brittleness of tramp | 04:40 |
| Almindor | hello again :) | 04:40 |
| Almindor | how do I set locale ? | 04:40 |
| buz | is fish more efficient than sftp? | 04:40 |
| sproingie | oh no | 04:40 |
| buz | sftp probably moves the whole file yes? | 04:40 |
| === apokryphos uses fish | ||
| sproingie | fish is not what you could call fast | 04:40 |
| Almindor | I've installed my language pack + i18n but I still get english in locale | 04:40 |
| apokryphos | sproingie: faster than ftp for me | 04:40 |
| sproingie | apokryphos: even passive ftp? | 04:40 |
| apokryphos | not as fast as ssh :P | 04:40 |
| sproingie | ftp servers are often slow | 04:40 |
| Jatos | btw, is is possible to mount an ftp site on your local filesystem? | 04:41 |
| sproingie | huh. scp is almost ALWAYS slower than ftp due to the crypto overhead | 04:41 |
| sproingie | must be a real braindead ftp server | 04:41 |
| sproingie | Jatos: there's been hacks to do it, nothing official | 04:41 |
| Jatos | ah | 04:41 |
| sproingie | i bet a usermode filesystem could do it | 04:41 |
| Jatos | where would I get such a hack? | 04:42 |
| sproingie | i'd love to see a usermode filesystem for arbitrary kioslaves | 04:42 |
| sproingie | combine with an automounter | 04:42 |
| buz | i thought there was a project to use kioslaves as usermode filesystems | 04:42 |
| sproingie | cd fish:/ | 04:42 |
| sproingie | it needs to ship with kde | 04:42 |
| Almindor | is the new kde much better? | 04:44 |
| === sproingie ponders forking pleac.sf.net into another project for more languages and less examples | ||

| Jatos | theres a sudden silence | 04:49 |

| Jatos | how cheap you want? | 04:51 |
| Almindor | gemuend, the icon I mean | 04:51 |
| sproingie | $10/month or lower | 04:51 |
| gemuend | Almindor: That might be a systray error | 04:51 |
| Almindor | gemuend, tray icon, when I switch desktops ether flashes or dissapears completly | 04:51 |
| Almindor | gemuend, happens only if klipper is filled with some strings and only to klipper | 04:52 |
| Almindor | gemuend, so I think it's a klipper bug | 04:52 |
| gemuend | The tray icons all flash (disappear for a very short time) when changing desktop (3.4.2 here) | 04:52 |
| Almindor | yes but klipper only makes problems when filled :) | 04:52 |

| Jatos | would anyone here have a use for a program similar to remote deskto,but programmed in such a way that the gui is run on the client, so gui commands as appossed to whats on screen get transmitted to the client | 06:08 |
| === OculusAquilae [n=bastian@p548D19AB.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Jatos | so for example if a program used GTK GKT would run on your pc and the GTK commands would be sent to the client from the server | 06:10 |
| Jatos | anyone there? | 06:11 |
| OculusAquilae | yes | 06:12 |
| Jatos | and would you use such a prog? | 06:12 |
| buz | mhh? X11? | 06:13 |
| Jatos | yeah, its not the xserver | 06:14 |
| === mats [i=mats@mail.n2u.no] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Jatos | it would allow you to "access" the gui on aremote sytem | 06:15 |
| nikkia | jatos, what you've described is exactly how X works | 06:15 |
| buz | or to some extent, vnc | 06:16 |
| buz | tho vnc really sends framebuffers | 06:16 |
| Jatos | in which I have either described my intentions badly or I don't understand x11 | 06:16 |
| buz | not commands | 06:16 |
| nikkia | buz, no, vnc uses a tiled framebuffer | 06:16 |
| buz | not sure what NX exactly does | 06:16 |
| buz | probably something framebuffer like | 06:16 |
| nikkia | buz, NX is rather humourous | 06:16 |
| buz | why | 06:16 |
| nikkia | buz, it doesn't do anything 'new' at all, its just VNC tunneled over ssh | 06:17 |
| laser_tk | Has anyone here managed to install or tried to install kbfx? | 06:17 |
| buz | much faster than vnc | 06:17 |
| nikkia | buz, it uses ssh's compression, that's why | 06:17 |
| Jatos | isn't x11 just the thing that handles windows, I didn't think it allowed remote acces to your gui | 06:17 |
| buz | faster even than tightnvc | 06:17 |
| nikkia | buz, but it is, literally, just vnc tunneled thru ssh | 06:17 |
| buz | wtf | 06:17 |
| nikkia | well, thats not entirely true, it can use rdesktop too | 06:17 |
| buz | then why bother implementing opensource nx? | 06:17 |
| Jatos | I think you will find that my "idea" would be faster than vnc or rdc | 06:18 |
| nikkia | buz, *shrug* look at the code tho, its all it does :) | 06:18 |
| buz | mhh | 06:18 |
| buz | weird | 06:18 |
| buz | nx feels more reponsive even in lans | 06:18 |
| nikkia | jatos, i think you'd find, it isn't | 06:18 |
| nikkia | jatos, seriously, IT IS HOW X WORKS | 06:18 |
| buz | given ample bandwidth, x can be better | 06:18 |
| buz | yes | 06:18 |
| Jatos | yeah but doesn't VNC just transmit a screen image from one pc to another | 06:18 |
| buz | its the whole f***** of x11 | 06:18 |
| buz | vnc yes | 06:19 |
| buz | x transmits commands | 06:19 |
| Jatos | so X11, transmitts gui commands from pc to another? | 06:19 |
| buz | which is part of the reason for it sucking so bad | 06:19 |
| nikkia | jatos, the flaw is, that stuff like GTK and Qt use pixmaps for everything, so the 'transmit commands' becomes huge bandwidth hogs as the client gets the pixmaps for all the buttons, etc | 06:19 |
| nikkia | jatos, yes | 06:19 |
| nikkia | buz, it only sucks because of the reason above | 06:19 |
| nikkia | if you use Xlib/Xt stuff, it flies | 06:19 |
| buz | na it sucked before qt | 06:19 |
| buz | it's a totally over engineered solution in search of a problem | 06:20 |
| buz | ok, xfree doesnt help | 06:20 |
| Jatos | so using can I run the gui on laptop say,, and run the gui apps on my servr? | 06:20 |
| buz | yes | 06:20 |
| nikkia | buz, the problem i have, is that most of its opponents want 'framebuffer' type displays | 06:20 |
| nikkia | buz, and raw FB stuff is hopeless | 06:20 |
| buz | yes | 06:20 |
| buz | seems to work for the rest of them guis | 06:20 |
| nikkia | jatos, yes, i do it all the time using ssh -X from my laptop | 06:20 |
| nikkia | its faster than vnc at times, slower at others, just depends | 06:21 |
| Jatos | ah | 06:21 |
| nikkia | buz, 'rest' being windows? | 06:21 |
| buz | vnc is more foolproof | 06:21 |
| buz | or osx | 06:21 |
| nikkia | buz, OS X doesn't use a framebuffer | 06:21 |
| buz | or beos | 06:21 |
| Jatos | is there anyway doing it between windows pcs? | 06:21 |
| buz | no idea what that uses though | 06:21 |
| buz | Jatos: rdesktop, vnc | 06:21 |
| nikkia | buz, beos is hoplessly outdated these days :/ | 06:21 |
| buz | then how does osx work? | 06:21 |
| buz | eh it was just updated | 06:21 |
| buz | to zeta 1.0 ;) | 06:21 |
| nikkia | buz, there are two types of windows in OSX, both get roughly the same treatment... | 06:22 |
| buz | read about it on ars the other day | 06:22 |
| Jatos | I didn't know abot SSH -x, so I will ditch the idea | 06:22 |
| nikkia | buz, 1 is a display PDF window, that is rendered to a GL context... | 06:22 |
| nikkia | the other is a raw bitmapped GL context | 06:22 |
| ekimus | where is the casper stuff located on the live cd? i can't figure out where it is.... | 06:22 |
| buz | you sure | 06:22 |
| nikkia | buz, yes | 06:22 |
| buz | i thought GL rendering only came in tiger | 06:22 |
| buz | sure doesnt feel like being accelerated in panther | 06:22 |
| nikkia | buz, it was added in jaguar, but the basic principle (display PDF where possible) was used from 10.0 | 06:23 |
| nikkia | buz, its accelerated on jaguar, for window transitions | 06:23 |
| nikkia | buz, IF the hardware supports it, if not it falls back to doing software transitions | 06:23 |
| buz | gf5200 would surely support it | 06:24 |
| buz | didnt feel accelerated at all to me | 06:24 |
| buz | not in any case comparable to tiger anyway | 06:24 |
| nikkia | but still, there is not *one* framebuffer really in OSX even from 10.0, each window has its own render context that is transparently handled behind the scenes, either by a framebuffer on hw that doesn't support GL, or via GL on 'Quartz Extreme' hw (gl accelerated) | 06:24 |
| nikkia | apple remote desktop works extremely fast on display PDF windows (which most simple windows are) | 06:25 |
| buz | i dont call not having a framebuffer in memory not having one really | 06:25 |
| buz | you essentially cant do anything without one, SOMEWHERE | 06:25 |
| nikkia | buz, the thing is, OSX *can* do network transparency, because the API doesn't see the framebuffer | 06:25 |
| buz | well maybe text mode | 06:25 |
| nikkia | buz, most common windows are rendered using display PDF, and you can do network transparency just by dumping the PDF to the remote host | 06:26 |
| nikkia | certain actions can even be animated at the PDF level itself | 06:26 |
| buz | which is part of the reason why it takes that shitload of hardware to do simple stuff | 06:27 |
| buz | it is elegant | 06:27 |
| nikkia | for example, if you resize a window, it doesn't need to do anything in terms of client/server communication, the client just rescales the display PDF | 06:27 |
| buz | but not efficient | 06:27 |
| buz | and certainly hasnt been fast until tiger came | 06:28 |
| nikkia | even windows is ditching the 'dumb framebuffer' approach | 06:28 |
| nikkia | buz, it was fine on my G4 w/jaguar | 06:28 |
| nikkia | and there is a utility that came with jag that lists which windows are using QE (GL Contexts) and which are using Q | 06:28 |
| buz | first time i found osx to be acceptable was on 1ghz g4 with panther | 06:28 |
| Jatos | how do I get xserver stuff to be forwarded to putty? | 06:29 |
| buz | jaguar on the same hardware was unusable to me | 06:29 |
| buz | mhh | 06:29 |
| buz | putty doesnt act as xserver really | 06:29 |
| nikkia | jatos, you can't | 06:29 |
| nikkia | jatos, if you're using a windows host, install cygwin + cygwin's X server | 06:29 |
| nikkia | then use ssh -X | 06:29 |
| jjesse | you can redirect x through putty | 06:29 |
| Jatos | oh, theres a x11 forwarding option putty | 06:30 |
| jjesse | yup :) | 06:30 |
| nikkia | jjesse: redirect, yes, but i don't think jatos has an X server running | 06:30 |
| buz | for win | 06:30 |
| buz | stick to vnc | 06:30 |
| buz | its easiest really | 06:30 |
| Jatos | kk | 06:31 |
| Jatos | what spec does cygwin need? | 06:31 |
| nikkia | buz, hmmm, i wonder if you could come up with something like display PDF, but that uses primitives that can be accelerated with vertex shaders | 06:31 |
| buz | how many people got useable vertex shaders these days? | 06:33 |
| nikkia | buz, a reasonable number | 06:33 |
| nikkia | buz, VS have been usable since at least the GF4 generation | 06:33 |
| buz | but prolly not in embedded graphics | 06:34 |
| buz | which got 80% market share i'd guesstimate | 06:34 |
| nikkia | buz, if by 'embedded' you mean 'onboard' i disagree | 06:34 |
| nikkia | intels chipsets do a fair job at VSers | 06:34 |
| buz | extreme graphics my ass ;) | 06:35 |
| nikkia | the nforce is more than capable, i imagine ATI's on-board solutions are more than capable | 06:35 |
| buz | the nforce is a geforce2, essentially | 06:35 |
| nikkia | that just leaves those weird stuff like S3 and neochrome, and they're probably nowhere near a majority | 06:35 |
| buz | ati is pretty decent | 06:35 |
| buz | save on linux | 06:36 |
| nikkia | buz, the GF4MX did have VSers | 06:36 |
| nikkia | it was pixel shaders where it really suffered compared to the real GF4s | 06:36 |
| buz | but pixel shaders would probably be easier to use for primitives | 06:36 |
| nikkia | iirc one of the differences between the GF2 and the GF4MX was that they added more vertex shaders | 06:36 |
| nikkia | but since VSers haven't really been used much, it was a pointless addition at the time :) | 06:37 |
| buz | probably was cheap to do so ;) | 06:37 |
| nikkia | buz, i just can't see 'dumb framebuffer' being a reasonable long term solution if you're saying X is braindead | 06:38 |
| buz | not a long term solution | 06:38 |
| buz | Xgl might eventually be that | 06:38 |
| nikkia | especially when the commercial OSes are moving away from dumb framebuffers, thus you end up looking 10 years out of date, again | 06:38 |
| buz | fb would have been the mid nineties to now solution | 06:38 |
| nikkia | buz, the problem is, as you know, that 'short term solutions' often end up becoming 'backwards compatibility that must be maintained' | 06:38 |
| buz | we all wouldnt have that problem if just everyone would use qt ;) | 06:39 |
| nikkia | and if you're going to throw away X for something new, you might as well try and do it right the first time | 06:39 |
| buz | in that case we could stick whatever layer below it | 06:39 |
| nikkia | buz, i remember a similar argument about gtk :P | 06:39 |
| nikkia | buz, mostly that imlib could be handled in a better way, thus removing the pixmap bloat that was cursing X :) | 06:39 |
| nikkia | and its never happened | 06:40 |

| arcanistherogue | I changed my comptuers host name, by editing a file (i think it was like /etc/hostname), and now whenever I use sudo i get the message "sudo: unable to lookup kubuntu via gethostbyname()" | 08:19 |
| arcanistherogue | Because I had it as "PC" before, and that would make all the windows real small when they were minimized. | 08:20 |

| Blissex | setite: no, Konqueror is a completely different implementation. | 08:56 |
| setite | oh is it... hmmm it seemed similar | 08:56 |
| setite | is there an email companion | 08:56 |
| setite | because i dont wanna see evolution agian | 08:56 |
| setite | and how would i go abotu customizing windows in kde | 08:57 |
| Jatos | konqueror might render a page properly if it was based on mozillla | 08:57 |
| setite | the bar and icons look fine.. but windows themselves look ghetto | 08:57 |
| setite | can i somehow transfer my thunderbird info from windows | 08:58 |
| setite | perhaps copy and paste some files? | 08:58 |
| Blissex | setite: KMail is the companion, it has several cool features, and KNode is the news reader. They are all part of the KOrganizer suite, which is KDE's alternative to Evolution etc. | 08:59 |
| Blissex | setite: in KDE to customize stuff you can load themes or tweks the settings in the 'Desktop&Appearances' dialog | 08:59 |
| Blissex | setite: Ubuntu and Debian come with quite a few prepackaged KDE themes. | 09:00 |
| setite | ok ill see if i cna find them | 09:00 |
| Blissex | setite: also, Thunderbird uses both on MS Windows and GNU/Linux, 'mbox' format files, which are also used by KMail etc, so it is easy to transfer them. | 09:00 |
| Blissex | setite: it is not necessary, but it would be best to have MS Windows files have line endings converted with 'dos2unix' or similar. | 09:01 |

| Vjaz | Ah yeah, that's annoying. | 10:12 |
| Vjaz | I think it's the ubuntu-backports one | 10:12 |
| [Surge] | Yes it is - just got it | 10:14 |
| [Surge] | A bit tricky for a newcomer like me :) | 10:14 |
| [Surge] | Not used to the tools and not having the backports configured is a pain | 10:15 |
| luminerd | what shall it be then - Mozilla or Firefox? or are they the same essentially? One just more bloated, or does Firefox have advantages? | 10:15 |
| [Surge] | I dunno luminerd - I just don't like all the extra stuff I don't need in Mozilla | 10:16 |
| [Surge] | But really Firefox and Java should be easy to install for new comers | 10:16 |
| Vjaz | Well Firefox is easy to install if you ignore the Gnome libraries, and they can safely do that. | 10:18 |
| Vjaz | Unless they don't include it on the Kubuntu CD-ROM. I'm not sure about that. | 10:18 |
| luminerd | I'm not worried about installation... | 10:18 |
| === derek [n=derek@66.9.7.66] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] | ||
| luminerd | Just, which is faster operating | 10:18 |
| Vjaz | luminerd: Mozilla Seamonkey is discontinued, so Firefox is probably a safer bet. | 10:19 |
| thoreauputic | Vjaz: erm - not discontinued afaik: in fact recently updated | 10:20 |
| thoreauputic | Vjaz: mozilla-suite is the new name on Ubuntu at least | 10:20 |
| Vjaz | thoreauputic: Ok, perhaps not yet, but I remember reading that the Mozilla Foundation is dumping it and it will become a smaller community project called the Seamonkey Suite. | 10:21 |
| luminerd | Okay, major problem...Firefox, Mozilla, and Mozilla-suite are all EXTREMELY slow. Konqueror is fast, so I know it's not my connection. What could possibly cause this?! | 10:25 |
| Vjaz | How much RAM do you have? | 10:26 |
| luminerd | Vjaz, me? | 10:26 |
| Vjaz | yes | 10:26 |
| luminerd | Vjaz, 256 | 10:27 |
| luminerd | I have no problems with Firefox on my laptop with that though | 10:27 |
| luminerd | Just this comp | 10:27 |
| Vjaz | I think it's that. KDE requires a lot of memory, and Firefox adds Gnome libraries on top of that. | 10:27 |
| Vjaz | luminerd: KDE on the laptop too? | 10:27 |
| thoreauputic | luminerd: try opening about:config and setting network.dns.disbleIPv6 to "true" (this helps some people) | 10:28 |
| luminerd | Vjaz, no, actually E17 | 10:28 |

| DarkMaul | i see the drive | 11:00 |
| Firetech | is there a green arrow in the corner of it? | 11:00 |

| DarkMaul | how will i mount it | 11:01 |
| Firetech | is it similar to the first drive? | 11:01 |

| Firetech | First, check in "storage media" what device the second drive is (click on it and it should say /dev/[something] in the error box.) then go into a terminal and type "sudo mount /dev/[something] /mnt" | 11:04 |
