| luminerd | great thanks! | 12:19 |
| pv_ | actually sun-j2re1.5 would also work, if you do not plan to develop java apps | 12:20 |

| luminerd | kill sudo! sudo sux0rs | 12:23 |
| luminerd | lol | 12:23 |
| luminerd | I did sudo passwd or w/e | 12:23 |
| luminerd | now I'm su'd | 12:23 |
| nikkia | luminerd: then you're on your own | 12:23 |
| pv_ | use vi ;) | 12:24 |
| luminerd | lame | 12:24 |
| luminerd | none work | 12:24 |
| luminerd | oh wonderful | 12:24 |
| luminerd | VI does! | 12:24 |
| luminerd | I hate VI! | 12:24 |
| luminerd | lol' | 12:24 |
| nikkia | and no, emacs won't run from su | 12:24 |
| luminerd | whyn't? | 12:24 |
| pv_ | no, you see that "su" effectively logs you in as root and may set xauth settings as in console mode -> no X access. | 12:25 |
| nikkia | pv, not just that... | 12:25 |
| pv_ | nikkia, mainly that I believe. | 12:25 |
| nikkia | pv, but emacs uses your UID to access unix domain sockets in /tmp | 12:25 |
| nikkia | and things get real nasty real quick | 12:25 |
| pv_ | setting XAUTHORITY="/home/user/.Xauthority" should fix X apps | 12:25 |
| nikkia | which is one of the things that kdesu does properly | 12:25 |
| luminerd | when in slackware, emacs works fine whilst you are su'd. | 12:26 |
| nikkia | luminerd: if its the console version of emacs, sure | 12:26 |
| luminerd | false. | 12:26 |
| luminerd | Emacs gui works fine. | 12:26 |
| nikkia | luminerd: then slackware is shipping their X setup to be insecure by default, which doesn't surprise me | 12:26 |
| nikkia | they used to set it so *any* user could connect to the local X server | 12:27 |
| pv_ | I still claim that this is due to xauth settings. | 12:27 |
| nikkia | pv, it probably is | 12:27 |
| nikkia | pv, but... | 12:27 |
| nikkia | pv, ubuntu's emacs include several non-standard elisp packages as standard, some of them use unix domain sockets in /tmp | 12:27 |
| pv_ | I don't think the X server even knows whether an application is root or not, it just asks it to send a magic cookie. | 12:27 |
| luminerd | nikkia, thanks for taking a shit on my profession. now enjoy the banishment of ignored-land. | 12:27 |
| nikkia | luminerd: watch your language, please | 12:28 |
| pv_ | (Frankly, I do not see a reason for ignore now.) | 12:29 |
| luminerd | pv_, what do you mean? | 12:29 |
| luminerd | and also how can I change the sudo password? | 12:29 |
| pv_ | sudo password should be the same as that of your user account. | 12:30 |
| pv_ | so passwd | 12:30 |
| luminerd | pv_, also, thanks for that command. It's working now...but curious, will I have to do anything else for it to work in Firefox? | 12:30 |
| luminerd | pv_, hmm, I don't want it the same as my user account... | 12:30 |
| luminerd | that defeats all purposes of even having password protection | 12:30 |
| nikkia | pv, thats quite funny, if luminerd wasn't ignoring me, i could tell him how to change that :P | 12:30 |
| pv_ | Errm, I meant the same as the password that you use for your own account. | 12:30 |
| luminerd | if the user using these boxen knows the password, I'll have 20 screwed up boxen to fix. | 12:30 |
| luminerd | pv_, I only have one account on these: caller | 12:31 |
| luminerd | I want to change the password for sudo, but not caller. | 12:31 |
| === Blissex|away is now known as Blissex | ||
| pv_ | There is a way to force sudo to ask for root password, see "man sudoers" | 12:32 |
| luminerd | thanks | 12:32 |
| luminerd | pv_, that's quite a large file, mind explaining shortly? | 12:34 |
| pv_ | the option is called "rootpw", but I do not remember the format of /etc/sudoers anymore :) | 12:34 |
| nikkia | pv, there's another option too, that makes sudo behave like su for passwords | 12:34 |
| luminerd | ah, ok thanks | 12:36 |
| pv_ | ok, nikkia. I haven't tweaked sudo much. | 12:36 |
| pv_ | or enough to remember all the options ;) | 12:36 |
| === luminerd can't see what nikkia's saying | ||
| nikkia | pv, there are basically 4 password modes for sudo | 12:37 |
| nikkia | 1) ask the user's password, 2) ask root's password, 3) ask the sudo target's password, and 4) ask a specified user's password | 12:37 |
| nikkia | pv, and since the mode is set per rule, you have a LOT of flexibility | 12:38 |
| pv_ | ok, quite enough room at least to shot yourself in the foot | 12:38 |
| nikkia | pv, you could, for example, set it to ask for your own password when running a common util, like, say, ifconfig, mount, etc, root's password for a root shell, and another user (say, editor) to edit files as root | 12:39 |
| nikkia | i believe you can even lock down which files can be edited, differently | 12:41 |
| luminerd | pv_, will I have to do anything else for it to work in Firefox? | 12:41 |
| nikkia | so it would make sense to lock down /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow real tight, but relax editing /etc/hosts.deny or so | 12:42 |
| pv_ | luminerd, perhaps ln -fs /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so | 12:43 |

| _john | like the windows Shared Documents | 12:43 |

| nikkia | pv, hmm, thats interesting, you can even lock down sudo so that it only allows LDAP authenticated users | 12:44 |
| _john | nice | 12:44 |
| luminerd | pv_, thanks | 12:45 |
| nikkia | pv, another nice feature, is that if you disable su, and enable NOEXEC mode for sudo, then all programs run as root are run with the NX bit set | 12:45 |
| nikkia | ah, no, sorry, it prevents system calls to exec | 12:46 |

| luminerd | wow. I'm an idiot | 01:01 |
| luminerd | why was I so offended by that? | 01:01 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: well if you think that all Linuxs are the same, then study Debian and then check out Linspire | 01:01 |
| jpatrick | That's what I was thinking | 01:01 |
| luminerd | I've said similar things regarding Kubuntu... | 01:01 |
| luminerd | nikkia, ok, I'm sorry :( | 01:01 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, didn't say that. | 01:01 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, I still believe that we Linux users should stick together. I do not consider Linspire Linux. | 01:01 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: so if they have differences, does it not follow that some will be better than others? | 01:01 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: well there's a mistake; what's your definition of Linux? | 01:02 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, no, they are all useful in different situations. | 01:02 |
| roguejedix_ | Wow, quite a conversation I've walked into. Hi, by the way | 01:02 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: so they have different strengths | 01:02 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, I know it is technically linux. but they don't keep as part of the community, they don't have good support, they have ugly defaults in their kde, they screw up their kernel, they don't go open source which pretty much defeats the purpose of linux, and they all around suck. | 01:03 |
| luminerd | roguejedix_, 'lo | 01:03 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: what is scary, is 'Linux users' would cover Amithlon users too :) | 01:03 |
| luminerd | anyway nikkia I'm very sorry I got so offended...looking back I feel like a fool | 01:03 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: there you go, that's your opinion | 01:03 |
| luminerd | s/feel like/am | 01:03 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: now why you think nikkia can't have one about another distro is beyond me | 01:03 |
| === roguejedix_ is now known as Rogue_Jedi_X | ||
| nikkia | apokryphos: one i ran for nigh on 8 years | 01:04 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, most of that's facts. my opinion is that any remotely reasonable form of linux should be considered linux, distro wars are pointless. | 01:04 |
| apokryphos | heh | 01:04 |
| luminerd | Slackware, however, is the purest form of Linux. | 01:04 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: you'll have to forgive me if I think nikkia knows more than you in this area :) | 01:04 |
| luminerd | It has nothing to bloat it, nothing to make it user friendly. | 01:04 |
| apokryphos | hehe | 01:04 |
| luminerd | It's the perfect distro for learning and the most secure of them all | 01:04 |
| apokryphos | Too many points to even attack... | 01:05 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, no, these are opinions we are discussing, no one can "know more" about them...we all know 100% of our own opinions. | 01:05 |
| apokryphos | and /me feels in such a good mood -- just booked holiday, woo | 01:05 |
| luminerd | anyway I'm not here to do this | 01:05 |
| nikkia | luminerd: there's absolutely no chance its the 'most secure of all', and i'm not bashing it with that | 01:05 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: errrrm, I was talking about the subject matter, not opinions. | 01:05 |
| luminerd | I'm sorry that I was such an idiot back then, I'm done discussing distros, and I'd like to know the path to my mozilla | 01:06 |
| nikkia | but, for example, they still eschew PAM, and their acceptance of shadow passwords wasn't all that long ago | 01:06 |
| apokryphos | There's a difference between an "opinion", and a substantiated proposition | 01:06 |
| luminerd | ok, I'm very done with this topic of conversation. shall I seek my answer elsewhere? | 01:07 |
| apokryphos | #ubuntu is a better place for that question, in theory, anyhow. But mozilla plugins go in ~/.mozilla | 01:07 |

| Rogue_Jedi_X | local ones, yes | 01:09 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: check what's in that directory | 01:09 |
| luminerd | apokryphos, ah, perfect, so they go in .mozilla/firefox? | 01:09 |
| === nikkia could make a fair guess too | ||
| nikkia | if i'd been in a lousier mood, you might have been banned here, although i'd probably have got in trouble with Riddell for it :) | 01:10 |
| nikkia | luminerd: you have to be careful, it depends on WHICH firefox you run | 01:11 |
| apokryphos | luminerd: no, in the plugins/ directory, though it would probably search in firefox/ too (not sure). | 01:11 |
| nikkia | there are 2 firefox builds on [k] ubuntu | 01:11 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | luminerd: my firefox plugins are in $HOME/.mozilla/plugins | 01:11 |
| luminerd | nikkia, which umm, hmm, not sure | 01:11 |
| nikkia | one uses .mozilla/firefox, the other uses .firefox | 01:11 |
| luminerd | nikkia, I got mozilla-firefox | 01:11 |
| nikkia | luminerd: that one uses .mozilla/firefox, i believe | 01:11 |
| luminerd | oh yea | 01:11 |
| luminerd | must be since I don't have a .firefox :P | 01:11 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | nikkia: Which one uses .firefox then? | 01:11 |
| luminerd | Rogue_Jedi_X, I see...hmmm | 01:11 |
| nikkia | Rogue_Jedi_X: backport's 'firefox' | 01:11 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | Ah, thanks | 01:12 |
| nikkia | Rogue_Jedi_X: i think, mudding the waters more, backports has a mozilla-firefox too | 01:12 |
| luminerd | ok so should they go in .mozilla/firefox or .mozilla/plugins (which does not currently exist) | 01:12 |
| nikkia | luminerd: its a bit more complicated than that | 01:12 |
| luminerd | Please enter the installation path of the Mozilla, Netscape, or Opera browser (i.e., /usr/lib/mozilla): | 01:13 |
| luminerd | that's what the flash plugin says | 01:13 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | Interesting. Three firefoxes. I think I have backports commented out anyway | 01:13 |
| apokryphos | .mozilla/plugins then | 01:13 |
| nikkia | luminerd: you have to find the 'plugins' directory below your profile, to make them unique to firefox, i don't honestly know if .mozilla/plugins is a 'local, global between mozilla/firefox' directory, but if apokryphos says it is, i'll trust his word :) | 01:13 |

| apokryphos | nikkia: I've never got into it before, but did this time (was reasonably enthralling at first). Got lame near the end, but still quite addcited | 01:20 |
| luminerd | OMG | 01:20 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: mostly just put in arrogant people, of course. | 01:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: yeah, i was like that with it last year, thats why i didn't watch it this year | 01:21 |
| luminerd | some guy's using IE to view MYSPACE on a WINDOWS computer in the office!!!!! uururutgh! | 01:21 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: Victor! | 01:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: you'll probably find that you can't bear it next year :) | 01:21 |
| apokryphos | hopefully | 01:21 |
| apokryphos | it wastes a lot of time | 01:21 |
| apokryphos | but makes for good conversation at times. Debates, too. :P | 01:21 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: you could say that about the whole of C4/E4 :) | 01:21 |
| apokryphos | Pretty sad though | 01:21 |
| apokryphos | reality-TV is "bigger", really, than most other stuff like that. | 01:22 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | Have any of you seen the Windows Vista beta screenshots? Looks like another facelift to me | 01:22 |
| apokryphos | I actually don't watch that much at all anymore. Watched the final today though; and watched many BB episodes. Hilarious at first. | 01:22 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i quite enjoyed the BBCs reality shows around 2000-2001 | 01:22 |
| apokryphos | Rogue_Jedi_X: yeah, it's improved significantly lately | 01:22 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: when they were fresh n' new | 01:22 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | Improved? How? | 01:23 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: ie, that one where they were on the island in the shetlands, and paddington green | 01:23 |
| apokryphos | heh | 01:23 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: who was your favourite from last series? | 01:23 |
| apokryphos | Rogue_Jedi_X: check out the screenies | 01:23 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: tbh, i didn't really attach to any of them, i found them all irritating, but in an amusing way (at first) | 01:23 |
| apokryphos | Rogue_Jedi_X: iCandy-wise, I mean. Earlier screenshots looked just like a blue XP | 01:23 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: they've made it look like a black XP now :P | 01:24 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | Oh, that. Yeah, that's true. Though I think the close button is waaaaay to wide | 01:24 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: Yeah. I didn't watch it that much; remember liking VIctor most of the time (hating him at others), and found it a disgrace that Nadia won. :| | 01:24 |
| apokryphos | Rogue_Jedi_X: effective though, apparently. New Plastik Window-dec for kde 3.5 is a lot bigger | 01:24 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i couldn't bear victor, but then, thats the woman's perspective for you :) | 01:24 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | *checks* | 01:25 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: he's the classic character for teenagers to just keep laughing at. Too funny. | 01:25 |
| apokryphos | Rogue_Jedi_X: though of course it's completely customizable | 01:25 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | No doubt. And since when does KDE-look.ord have a KDE 4.0 section? | 01:26 |
| jpatrick | since yesterday | 01:26 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: anyhow, this year unfortunately the only character I really liked was voted out about half-way through | 01:26 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | jpatrick: Really? Only beta, I assume? | 01:27 |
| apokryphos | Of course | 01:27 |
| jpatrick | The KDE 4 section poped up yesterday | 01:27 |
| apokryphos | weird that they should put it in more than a year than it's expected to come out :) | 01:27 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: that one with the celebs in the mansion that Ch4 had a while ago was mildly amusing too, if only because if you watched it enough, you realised it was all completely faked | 01:28 |
| jpatrick | http://dot.kde.com | 01:28 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: celebs..mansion.. wha? Must've missed it. I don't really watch any others... there's far too many these days | 01:28 |

| nikkia | apokryphos: anyway, once you watched it for more than about 2-3 hours, you started to realise that the timing wasn't always right, and since the 'mansion' was actually a sound stage in elstree (a fact they didn't really hide) they could have, and probably did, film it all in a day :) | 01:30 |
| apokryphos | hahaha | 01:30 |

| nikkia | is that a feature too? | 01:39 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: no | 01:39 |
| apokryphos | it should be a little lighter | 01:39 |
| nikkia | by that, i assume you mean 'it should match the surrounding grey' ? :) | 01:40 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: actually, nope... just checking -- it should be yellow too | 01:40 |
| nikkia | the icon in the file konqueror window looks cut off too | 01:40 |
| nikkia | i mean the icon in the location bar, not the window itself | 01:41 |
| apokryphos | well, is it yellow? If not, then... | 01:41 |
| apokryphos | Yeah, seems kinda silly to have a section on kde4 made already | 01:42 |
| apokryphos | maybe it's to "increase the buzz/hype", but kinda silly, as nothing actually works properly on it yet | 01:42 |

| apokryphos | wow | 01:53 |
| Raptoid | selamlar. | 01:53 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: what do you use for that? I remember in my more adventurous divx days I managed to make a couple, but they were always *very* big, sound wouldn't always lign up etc etc | 01:54 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the last mac i owned, and probably the last i'll ever own, was a dual G4-866, whose northbridge blew up 2 days after the warrenty expired | 01:55 |

| === troglodyt [n=user@204-101-205-72.anikast.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| apokryphos | I only ever go for Athlons though | 02:01 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i had a bad experience with AMD a long time ago :P | 02:02 |
| apokryphos | always much cheaper, for us. Confused about which is actually better, though read more than enough articles :P | 02:02 |
| nikkia | and i really do mean a LONG time ago | 02:02 |
| apokryphos | Athlons are easily more popular, too, from where we buy. Most of the sellers regard Athlons more highly | 02:02 |
| nikkia | i had a 386DX-40 | 02:02 |
| pax | AMD is making cheap fast quiet chips now | 02:03 |
| nikkia | the problem was, AMD didn't even tackle the issue that the VLB spec called for a max clock of 33MHz at the time | 02:04 |
| nikkia | so it was terribly unstable, and i blame AMD | 02:04 |
| nikkia | oddly, the 486DX-50 i replaced it with, didn't have the same issue | 02:04 |
| apokryphos | dual core sounds good | 02:04 |
| nikkia | (and it was a first gen DX50, not the crappier 2nd gen that was released at the same time as the DX66) | 02:04 |
| === valdhir [n=valdhir@62.57.15.96] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | most people didn't realise at the time, that there were two 486DX-50s, and the first-gen one was the best, it would outperform a DX66 for the most part | 02:05 |
| apokryphos | sounds like ancient talk to me; old indeed | 02:05 |
| nikkia | (first-gen had a 50Mhz FSB, second gen, and the DX-66 had clock doubling, so a 25Mhz and 33Mhz FSB) | 02:06 |
| nikkia | if you were IO bound, the DX-50 first gen would stomp all over the DX-66's slower FSB | 02:06 |
| === pax [i=pax@dd05.us] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | oh, i also owned a K5 P166+ at one point, another reason to hate AMD :P | 02:09 |

| nikkia | erm, thats just x86 desktops | 02:11 |
| apokryphos | oh :-O. Less than I thought | 02:11 |
| nikkia | and its a bit deceptive, because each 'PC' went thru 2-3 motherboard/CPU combos :) | 02:11 |

| apokryphos | Wish I could remember the stats of ours; they were..... bad | 02:17 |
| apokryphos | though reasonable at the time. A "computer" -- wow. | 02:17 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: the 3 B&W G3s were the extravagance, they were all pretty much simultaneous purchases | 02:18 |
| apokryphos | why three? | 02:18 |
| nikkia | 1 as a server, 1 as a dedicated music workstation, and 1 (the 400) as my development machine | 02:18 |
| nikkia | the biege G3 was supposed to be the server, but it had a weird fault | 02:18 |
| apokryphos | heh. Real different user stations | 02:18 |
| nikkia | it would just lock up after a random amount of up-time, no matter what OS it was running | 02:19 |
| nikkia | never did work out why, although it stopped doing it near the end | 02:19 |
| apokryphos | 'bout time | 02:19 |

| nikkia | i THINK it was when the CPU fan died and i CBA to buy a new one | 02:23 |
| nikkia | either that, or when i had the problem that the floppy drive would only work if it was upside outside the case - and since freebsd didn't recognise my scsi drive, i had to boot the kernel from floppy :) | 02:24 |

| CyberMad | from www.dreamweavers.com | 09:46 |
| PieD | dreamweavers crossoffice ? | 09:46 |
| CyberMad | yes.. | 09:47 |
| CyberMad | a commercial version of wine | 09:47 |
| Bubbling_Zombie | i think crossover is kind of universal | 09:47 |
| PieD | I know codeweavers crossoffice | 09:47 |
| PieD | but not dreamweavers crossoffice | 09:47 |
| [Surge] | :) | 09:47 |
| CyberMad | yes, but i just want to know if crossoffice already run very well on kubuntu | 09:48 |
| PieD | it'll work | 09:48 |
| CyberMad | codeweavers ;( | 09:48 |
| CyberMad | i mean that | 09:48 |
| PieD | if you have said crossoffice only, I'd have answered immediately | 09:48 |
| CyberMad | hahaha... sorry d00d | 09:48 |
| PieD | but that's insulting for codeweavers to tell they are "dreamweavers" | 09:49 |
| PieD | dreamweavers doesn't support opensource ! | 09:49 |
| CyberMad | get accidently exchanged with macromedia :(( | 09:49 |
| CyberMad | lol | 09:49 |
| CyberMad | once more question, does kubuntu support NAT, i want to make an internet sharing for some pc | 09:50 |
| hussam | anybody's used Knetstats? | 09:51 |
| PieD | CyberMad: without any problem off course ! | 09:51 |
| [Surge] | Yeah NAT is no problem on any linux distro | 09:51 |
| [Surge] | Although personally I recommend a separate firewall running something like IPCop or Smoothwall | 09:52 |
| [Surge] | Aimed at that sort of task and easy to setup | 09:52 |
| CyberMad | hehe.. thanks2 i'm newbie in linux :) i would use linux as my main os and windows just for backup | 09:52 |
| PieD | windows for backup ??? | 09:52 |
| CyberMad | sorry wrong english lang :( | 09:53 |
| PieD | you mean saving datas ? | 09:53 |
| CyberMad | i'm working on visual studio .net | 09:53 |
| PieD | :/ | 09:53 |
| [Surge] | Hissss ... | 09:53 |
| PieD | (I hate .net) | 09:53 |
| CyberMad | i read from crossoffice forum and not support it | 09:53 |
| PieD | you can still use qemu (with its kernel module for speed) | 09:54 |
| CyberMad | :( yeah.. just my job demand | 09:54 |
| PieD | you install win2000 in qemu, then visual studio in win2000 in qemu | 09:54 |
| CyberMad | what is qemu, is it like vmware? | 09:54 |
| PieD | but that may be a bit slow (one of my friend is going to test that shortly) | 09:54 |
| PieD | like vmware, but different :) | 09:54 |
| [Surge] | CyberMad: Yes | 09:55 |
| PieD | vmware is a virtualiser (is that the right word ?) | 09:55 |
| PieD | while qemu is an emulator | 09:55 |
| CyberMad | i will try it.. :) | 09:55 |
| PieD | qemu is able to emulate PPC systems on x86 systems | 09:55 |
| [Surge] | qemu is OpenSource as far as I know. VMWare is proprietry. | 09:55 |
| PieD | while vmware is only able to emulate x86 on x86 | 09:55 |
| CyberMad | PieD wow... | 09:55 |
| CyberMad | ^^ | 09:55 |
| PieD | qemu supports 4 architectures | 09:56 |
| PieD | (sparc, arm, ppc and x86) | 09:56 |

| PieD | microsoft calls his implementation .net | 10:07 |
| JakubS_ | [Surge] : see some gnome apps, all their devs drool over .net and mono | 10:08 |
| PieD | .net provides a class library | 10:08 |
| CyberMad | so do i, but at least for me this is make me sure that linux is the best choice | 10:08 |
| PieD | and a kind of language abstraction layer | 10:08 |
| PieD | so every language will be compiled to a sort of bytecode | 10:08 |
| === pc10 [n=pc10@202.93.36.58] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| PieD | and thanks to that bytecode, a python.net program is able to use a VB.net class | 10:09 |

| Cool^19m | i installed the server version of Kubuntu ie without KDE etc etc....now i'm trying to install X.....any guide as to how?....i managed to get to the X core files..in fact X does start...but i get errors saying there is no Xsession | 11:28 |
| seaLne | try installing kubuntu-desktop to get all the X and KDE stuff | 11:29 |
| jpatrick | he doesn't want KDE | 11:30 |
| Cool^19m | isnt that: sudo apt-get install kdesktop? | 11:30 |
| jpatrick | no | 11:30 |
| Cool^19m | the packages do get installed....yet i need X ;) | 11:30 |

| Cool^19m | i need X alone for now | 11:31 |

| Cool^19m | buz: not sure if that will work....do i need to dpkg some stuff? | 11:32 |
| jpatrick | no :-/ | 11:32 |
| buz | no idea | 11:32 |
| buz | i'd get kubuntu-desktop ;) | 11:32 |
| buz | doesnt really hurt | 11:32 |
| buz | takes some space but that's about it | 11:32 |
| Cool^19m | buz: but i dont want all the extra little proggies with KDE | 11:32 |
| Cool^19m | :) | 11:32 |

| lovelypenguin | I'm making a symlink /dev/modem to point to a tty in /dev and it works until I reboot and the modem link to a tty is gone. I've tried placing it there with sudo and changing to the root user, neither survives reboot. Why not? | 12:13 |
| hussam | [Surge] : a boot splash will still enable you to press a key to see the text. | 12:13 |
| nikkia | woohoo, Quake 3 source code to be release RSN | 12:13 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: thats because modern distros don't use a static /dev | 12:14 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: best advice, is to read up on writing udev rules, and create a rule that produces a symlink for your modem | 12:14 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: /dev on most modern distros is actually a tiny ramdisk, and hotplug+udev produce all the device nodes as they are created by the kernel | 12:15 |
| lovelypenguin | nikkia: thank you for kind advice, sounds like it not a simple solution then, no step by step simple process? if modern distro why then is it more complicated requiring reading? before I could sudo and ln -s /dev/modem /dev/ttywhatever | 12:15 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: its not 'simple' but its not hideously complicated | 12:15 |
| lovelypenguin | nikkia: thank you for kind information | 12:15 |
| lovelypenguin | nikkia: ah ha I see now | 12:16 |
| lovelypenguin | nikkia: thank you I be looking for answer in instruction manuals then | 12:16 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: the reasoning is, to produce a static /dev directory that matches *all* supported hardware results in a /dev that has thousands upon thousands of dev nodes | 12:16 |
| nikkia | by using udev+hotplug, only the device nodes relevant to your system are created | 12:16 |
| lovelypenguin | so this is new in 2.6 kernels? | 12:16 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: pretty much, yes | 12:17 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: it replaces devfs | 12:17 |

| nikkia | lovelypenguin: i don't have a modem rule, but here's my /dev/cdrw rule to give you an idea: | 12:17 |
| nikkia | BUS="ide", KERNEL="hdd", NAME="%k", SYMLINK+="cdrw cdroms/cdrom%n" | 12:17 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: and a more complex example that shows why this system is great: | 12:18 |
| nikkia | BUS="scsi", SYSFS{model}=="iPod*", KERNEL="sd?2", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="ipod" | 12:18 |

| lovelypenguin | that sound pretty much better than old way of /dev | 12:18 |

| lovelypenguin | so I have been placing symlinks on a ramdisk then? why did I not think of this | 12:19 |
| lovelypenguin | I laugh now at this | 12:19 |
| lovelypenguin | and thank you for kind advice | 12:19 |
| nikkia | so if i plug my ipod in then boot, the ipod is /dev/sda*, so /dev/ipod points to /dev/sda2, but if i unplug it, and boot, then my memory card reader gets sda, and the ipod will be sdb2, but that rule ensures that /dev/ipod points to /dev/sdb2 in that situation | 12:19 |
| lovelypenguin | I was doing it dumb old way I see now | 12:19 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: it really is a more flexible situation with udev, but as you can see, it requires a little bit more work... | 12:20 |
| lovelypenguin | yes but it sound like it worth the trouble | 12:20 |
| nikkia | lovelypenguin: for a modem, its going to be easy, just something like "KERNEL="ttyS0" SYMLINK+="modem" | 12:21 |
| lovelypenguin | wow I thank you for this help and your wonderful examples, you help a lot very kind!! | 12:21 |
| lovelypenguin | i now know not to attempt symlinks in /dev in new distros | 12:22 |

| Vectrox | after what update, did you upgrade to KDE 3.4.2 ? | 10:00 |
| loren | Q: Where's the file located that cyou add your domain name to | 10:00 |
| luminousnerd | Okay, well, what I want to do is completely duplicate the system I'm on now to 19 others. I will do this with CD-Rs. How can I make a bootable CD with all of my computer data, that I can just stick on a currently Windows machine and write exactly what I have? | 10:02 |

| loadquo | luminous: Don't know exactly, but I would start by modifying a live-cd and learning more about the dd command | 10:03 |
| slow-motion | <Vectrox> after what update, did you upgrade to KDE 3.4.2 ? < no, some upgrade after the installation. i dont remember to what version. but i lost the kubuntu theme and the thing with the videos with that update | 10:03 |
| slow-motion | at the moment i run KDE 3.4.2 | 10:04 |
| slow-motion | still without the kubuntu theme and the video thing | 10:05 |
| Vectrox | slow-motion: So you did upgrade to KDE 3.4.2.. Are you using Breezy or Hoary ? | 10:05 |
| slow-motion | hoary | 10:05 |
| slow-motion | i had the thing already lost before 3.4.2 | 10:05 |
| Vectrox | pretty strange that the picture with the videos just dissapeard.. | 10:05 |
| Vectrox | oo | 10:06 |
| Vectrox | So even before the upgrade youve lost that ? | 10:06 |
| loadquo | I asked this over at debian mentors but didn't get a response, so I thought I would try here: I am making an application with something I want to install in /etc/ in a .deb file and under /usr/local/etc in my normal tar.gz of the source. Is there a standard way of doing this in an automake project? | 10:06 |

| slow-motion | it was this preview popup. with pictures it still works, but with videos never | 10:06 |
| slow-motion | <Vectrox> So even before the upgrade youve lost that ? < yes. i remember that it was a very common update at this time and everyone was complaining about loosing the kubuntu theme with it | 10:07 |
| Vectrox | from which source did you upgrade ? | 10:08 |
| slow-motion | i really dont know | 10:08 |
| slow-motion | it was an update | 10:08 |
| slow-motion | long ago | 10:08 |

| Rogue_Jedi_X | I remember we bought a computer with the 5,25" floppy drive just as 3.5" ones were becoming popular. We were screwed from the beginning | 11:48 |
| nik | lol | 11:48 |

| nik | kubuntu can read ntfs right? | 11:52 |
| pax | why not | 11:52 |
| nik | cuz i cant read my windows drive | 11:52 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | It can read my sister's hard drive, so probably, yeag | 11:52 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | *yeah | 11:52 |
| jpatrick | NT | 11:53 |
| jpatrick | NTFS is dangerous to write to I think | 11:53 |
| luminousnerd | I want to get the settings and every program, the distro, EVERY THING on this pc to the other machines (which are factory installed winblows) | 11:53 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | Then again, it's dangerous to use Windows, so what's the harm :) | 11:53 |
| nik | i jstu wanan read it thoguh | 11:54 |
| nik | i have a dual boot with an ntfs xp and ext3 kubuntu | 11:54 |

| Rogue_Jedi_X | I'm stumped there | 11:54 |
| nik | well considering the limited knowledge i have of linux i think its less dangerous for me to use windows cuz i dont no what the hell im doiiiiing here | 11:55 |
| Rogue_Jedi_X | I'll be facing the same problem in a couple of months, though | 11:55 |
| nik | wait | 11:55 |
| nik | ok it sees taht there is a drive | 11:55 |
| nik | btu it wont mount | 11:56 |
| nik | whats etc/fstab and etc/mstab? | 11:56 |
| pax | nik this is a script by seveas that can mount your ntfs partition and make it accessible by default http://ninux.net/files/fstab | 11:56 |
| PieD | nik: that's two configuration files | 11:56 |
| pax | !ntfs | 11:57 |
| ubotu | somebody said ntfs was the filesystem used under Windows XP. The Ubuntu installer can safely resize an NTFS partition to create a new partition for you to install Ubuntu. http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab | 11:57 |
| nik | i have two harddrives so id rather keep them seperate | 11:57 |
| nik | do i have to compile that program link? | 11:58 |

| nik | the instructions are confuzing me | 12:00 |
| pax | nik, save it, name it something then in console type: sudo bash <whatever_you_named_it> | 12:01 |
| PieD | I suppose your ntfs partition is the first partition of the harddisk ? | 12:01 |
| pax | now you can browse your windowsxp | 12:01 |
