nikkia | brb, gonna try and sort this mess out, a little | 11:50 |
paines | thats right. you install gnome to take a look at it, and you can never get rid of the gnome animated icons | 11:51 |

CellarDoor | ? | 11:57 |
CellarDoor | why would you need gnome for that ? | 11:57 |
nikkia | CellarDoor: thunderbird and firefox both use gnome for their mime-types handling | 11:57 |
nikkia | ergo, thunderbird uses whatever gnome thinks is the right application to open a link | 11:57 |
nikkia | which somehow seems to be quanta+ | 11:57 |

ilba7r | its excellent for file sharing | 12:11 |

jpatrick | Bonjour is server-less chat | 12:11 |
CyberMad | ilba7r is that chat software or file sharing software? | 12:12 |
CyberMad | jpatrick ok.. i google it | 12:12 |
ilba7r | both p2p | 12:12 |
CyberMad | ilba7r ok i google it too | 12:12 |

jpatrick | CyberMad: http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/bonjour/ | 12:14 |
nikkia | jpatrick: christ, they changed the name AGAIN ? | 12:15 |
jpatrick | Yeah they did | 12:16 |
jpatrick | pretty annoying :p | 12:16 |
nikkia | makes you wonder why they don't just stick to the official name, ZeroConf, and have done with it | 12:17 |
hettar | Not their fault. SOme hit them with a trademark suit | 12:17 |
nikkia | hettar: yes, it IS their fault | 12:17 |
hussam | how can list the "time modified" when using the dir command? | 12:17 |
jpatrick | I like the Dashboard widgets | 12:18 |
nikkia | hettar: ZeroConf has no trademark issues, its been called ZeroConf since before apple started trying to find a name to call their version | 12:18 |
CyberMad | jpatrick so where is bonjour for linux, err can't found it :P | 12:18 |
hettar | ZeroConf is the protocol. you don't have to name software that implements a network protocol after the protocol | 12:19 |
CyberMad | i think qnext is cool ;) | 12:19 |
jpatrick | CyberMad: I think there's a Gaim plugin | 12:19 |
CyberMad | CyberMad ic, gaim plugin for bonjour, right? | 12:20 |
CyberMad | err | 12:20 |

nikkia | hettar: Bonjour is the protocol | 12:21 |
nikkia | hettar: as was Rendezvous | 12:21 |
CyberMad | ok, i will try bonjour & gaim later | 12:22 |

ilba7r | and you already have java | 12:24 |
ilba7r | let me get you the script i have i think they download it to you | 12:24 |
ilba7r | yap you just click on the qnext icon after untarring it | 12:25 |
CyberMad | so what is this: qnext.tar.bz2 ? | 12:25 |

CyberMad | :) | 01:01 |
jpatrick | o.O | 01:06 |
nikkia | CyberMad: good luck, skype is horrible to setup :P | 01:07 |
nikkia | it uses OSS and can't be dsp wrapped | 01:07 |
nikkia | so you can't use it at the same time as artsd or any other sound server, or any other sound app | 01:07 |
paines | so get an emu10k1 based card which can play >30 stream at the same time | 01:08 |

nikkia | zsolt: you probably want the one thats on www.debian.org somewhere | 01:16 |
zsolt | thx | 01:16 |
nikkia | there is a general howto for networking on linux.org, but it isn't very debian-ised, the concepts involved with /etc/network/interfaces are quite a bit different | 01:17 |
nikkia | altho, with the debian one, you'll need to bear in mind that on [k] ubuntu ifupdown isn't really used per se, network initialisation is done by hotplug instead | 01:17 |

nikkia | i told you to use the debian howtos :) | 01:31 |
nikkia | and pointed out that there is a slight difference, debian uses ifupdown to make the contents of /etc/network/interfaces take effect, whereas [k] ubuntu uses hotplug (which indirectly uses ifupdown) | 01:31 |

zsolt | i'm looking at the networking howto at debian.org, and it doesn't mention /etc/network/interfaces, all it uses is ifconfig and route | 01:47 |

nikkia | you didn't read far enough :P | 01:49 |
nikkia | http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-gateway.en.html#s-net-high | 01:49 |
nikkia | the manual refers to 'low level configuration', then goes on to 'high level configuration' (how you SHOULD config it), which IMO is a bad way to present the info, as people will read the low-level and do it, then be confused | 01:50 |
nikkia | but then, confusion seems to reign unchecked when it comes to /etc/network/interfaces, it doesn't help that the man pages don't document the file fully, either | 01:50 |

zsolt | so there would be no sound | 01:59 |
zsolt | somehow i don't think changing the access rights to /dev/dsp is the right solution | 02:00 |

paines | zsolt, how did you add the new account. via console or graphical interface | 02:04 |
maxy_noob | can I just cut in? | 02:04 |
zsolt | graphical | 02:04 |
paines | maxy_noob, just ask | 02:04 |
paines | ;-) | 02:04 |
paines | zsolt, to be honest, never did it with an graphical interface always by hand, so I set up the group permissions also | 02:05 |
maxy_noob | okey dokey. I'm just trying to get my home network to work on kubuntu. It's a cinch in ubuntu (i.e. gnome), but KDE doesn't seem to be cooperating. | 02:05 |
zsolt | that's fine with me, i like bash better | 02:06 |
maxy_noob | I try to switch to administrator mode but nothing happens after I enter my password. Options remain greyed out. | 02:06 |

Hobbsee | you can grab it via synaptic | 02:28 |

katrina | so sorry for being so newbie stupid | 03:24 |
_stef | katrina: go to kcontrol > samba there you can configure all | 03:25 |
ORiON | I believe you need to set it in kcontrol->Internet & Network-> Samba | 03:25 |
ORiON | the workgroup needs to be the sme as whatever workgroup the windows machines are on | 03:26 |

katrina | ok will try it | 03:27 |
katrina | can i also see linux users? | 03:27 |
jpatrick | yes | 03:29 |
jpatrick | I don't think it has to be the same | 03:29 |
nikkia | and you can *generally* tell them apart from the windows users, as it'll have 'samba server' in the machine description | 03:30 |
nikkia | (i say generally, because OSX and other samba-using OSs will appear the same) | 03:30 |
katrina | ok i can see them..but i also have oher users on linux but i cant see them..only windows shares | 03:31 |
jpatrick | that's okay :/ | 03:32 |
nikkia | katrina: you'll only see linux users if they've actually configured samba :) | 03:32 |
katrina | linux users are also on the same workgrp - kainos | 03:32 |
katrina | u mean if they have share some files or direstories? | 03:32 |
jpatrick | My brothers and sister's computer shows up as Windows server | 03:32 |
nikkia | katrina: basically, yes | 03:33 |
katrina | how can i see them from my pc under linux? what shall i configure in samba | 03:33 |
nikkia | see who? the linux users that haven't got samba running ? that's going to be tricky, there really isn't any way to find a linux machine on the LAN unless it wants to be found :) | 03:34 |
jpatrick | use fish:/ for Linux :) | 03:34 |
jpatrick | configure your NetBIOS name: | 03:35 |
katrina | so we all have to have the same netbios name? | 03:35 |
jpatrick | no | 03:35 |
jpatrick | different | 03:35 |
nikkia | jpatrick: its not going to help in finding *others* unless they all configure their netbios name | 03:36 |
katrina | each pc have to have a different netbios | 03:36 |
nikkia | jpatrick: and the bottom line is, if the other linux machines are configured to be quiet, there will be no way, short of reconfiguring them all, to see them all | 03:36 |
jpatrick | oh | 03:36 |
katrina | after confg my netbios name say katrina... then they can acces me using smb://katrina ? | 03:36 |

yudi | looks like ubuntu package (specially xchat) use debian package... | 04:39 |
sproingie | device icons won't show up unless you have media in them | 04:39 |
ChaKy | bobuse: heh, I didn't try to put CD or DVD in drive. I will try to do that now | 04:40 |
sproingie | if you rightclick the desktop, select "configure desktop", select "behavior", then the "device icons" tab, you can select which ones show up | 04:40 |
yudi | i didn't see any icon too in my desktop | 04:40 |

sproingie | ubuntu is based on debian | 04:42 |

ronino | i just installed a fresh kubuntu, but it didn't ask me for the root password, so how can i set it? | 04:51 |
ronino | or what is the default one? | 04:51 |
CyberMad | nothing | 04:52 |
pax | ChaKy: right click the desktop > create new > link to device > chose one > edit device | 04:52 |
aseigo | ronino: it's set up to use sudo | 04:52 |
nikkia | chaky, iirc, slackware does it without using the 'device icons' options | 04:52 |
CyberMad | it's true didn't ask u a root password | 04:52 |
aseigo | ronino: so you either use sudo for everything or if you want a root passwd, you do: sudo passwd | 04:52 |
CyberMad | i'm new too in kubuntu | 04:52 |
nikkia | ChaKy: i think it does it by having a script that runs at each kde startup, which produces .desktop files that match the devices in /etc/fstab | 04:53 |
nikkia | i ran slackware for years, and i remember being constantly annoyed at those icons to the point where eventually i tracked down the script and stopped it executing :P | 04:53 |
ronino | aseigo: okay, but trying to use "sudo passwd" it asks me for the password but i haven't set one ;-) | 04:54 |

bobuse | franz: Why ? | 04:59 |
nikkia | aseigo: see what you've done! | 04:59 |
jjesse | why would you need to enable the root account? | 04:59 |
franz | sudo passwd root | 04:59 |
nikkia | aseigo: it was nice and pleasant, noone had asked about root passwords for a couple of days, and you have to go and mention it :P | 04:59 |
ronino | isn't this not that secure? the user creates a user account with a weak password which is also set for the root's one | 04:59 |
franz | to configure | 04:59 |
bobuse | to configure what | 05:00 |
bobuse | use sudo | 05:00 |
franz | printer or so on | 05:00 |
nikkia | ronino: how is it less secure than having a single root password that you have to give to everyone that needs to do something as root ? | 05:00 |
franz | i come from Mandriva world | 05:00 |
bobuse | you can too hsu "sudo -s" ;-) | 05:00 |
ronino | one can do "sudo bash" to get a root shell | 05:00 |
bobuse | for printer, use the kde wizard | 05:00 |
franz | ok | 05:01 |
tenco | i think its good that root login is disabled :) | 05:01 |
aseigo | sudo su - | 05:01 |
nikkia | ronino: man sudoers | 05:01 |
nikkia | ronino: you can control who can do what as root with sudo, not so with su | 05:01 |
ronino | nikkia: hmm, i'm not sure, this sounds like a new concept for me, i'm coming from Gentoo and installed Kubuntu for a friend of mine | 05:01 |
ronino | nikkia: okay, that sounds logical | 05:01 |
tenco | ronino: its different from gentoos and *bsds approach, but i like | 05:02 |
tenco | it | 05:02 |
franz | when i want to configure i have to write my passwd but i didnt go | 05:02 |
aseigo | you also don't have to manage a separate root password (think: multiple admins) | 05:02 |
bobuse | franz: to edit a file as root, type : "sudo nano /etc/..." | 05:02 |
nikkia | tenco, its not THAT different, OSX is basically a BSD and it uses sudo exclusively | 05:02 |
ronino | tenco: yep, once you know about the details | 05:02 |
nikkia | bobuse: or just use sudo -e | 05:02 |
=== aseigo shudders at "nano" =P | ||
nikkia | bobuse: which is better, since it follows vipw style approach to editing files | 05:02 |
franz | i don't want to edit files | 05:03 |
franz | i want to use the center of configuration | 05:03 |
bobuse | franz: lol | 05:03 |
ronino | so far i must tell Kubuntu looks kinda good | 05:04 |
bobuse | nikkia: thx for the tip, but I'm not sure to understand what "vipw style" means | 05:04 |
tenco | it also runs faster on that 400mhz celeron with 128mb ram i have around here :) | 05:04 |
nikkia | bobuse: vipw copies the file to be edited, to a /tmp file, then runs vi on the tmp file, when vi exits, it copies the file back to the original location, its a safer situation when editing critical files | 05:05 |
jjesse | tenco: i have noticed the same thing w/ my test box | 05:05 |
nikkia | bobuse: sudo -e does the same thing... copy file to /tmp, edit tmpfile, copy tmpfile over original | 05:05 |
nikkia | bobuse: because it does it that way, it also means you can use gui editors | 05:06 |
bobuse | franz: there isn't drakconf on (k)ubuntu. But you have the tools of the desktop manager (here KDE) and your favorite editor (nano, vi ...) | 05:06 |
nikkia | since the edit process never runs AS root, it just has root read/write access to the original file | 05:06 |
franz | i use /home/franz/.kde/share/apps/kicker | 05:07 |
bobuse | nikkia: Ha yes. Thx a lot ! With GUI editors I'd problems ... now I know why ! | 05:07 |
nikkia | bobuse: also, sudo -e can be granted to a user without granting them permission to run an editor or shell as root | 05:07 |

CyberMad | it's like iTunes!!!!!!!!!!! | 05:19 |

nikkia | dech: 'EDITOR=gedit sudo -e /etc/apt/sources.list' | 05:20 |
nikkia | dech: and for future use, you might want to put 'export EDITOR=gedit' in your .bash_profile or .bashrc | 05:20 |
dech | thanks :) | 05:20 |
CyberMad | how to hide apps from the taskbar.. those disturbing me because too many :( | 05:20 |
nikkia | (you can also use the variable VISUAL, i don't think there is any significant difference between the two variables, other than history, VISUAL was used in the early days to tell the system what to use instead of vi | 05:21 |
dech | Thanks | 05:21 |

jjesse | setup vnc on the windows box and use vnc n the linux box | 05:28 |
tenco | is it normal that kopete cant handle LAN adresses? | 05:28 |
nikkia | CyberMad: install vnc on windows, or install rdesktop on linux (if the windows is XP) | 05:29 |
nikkia | either way works fine, although rdesktop fairs better with DX apps, but will log out the current user from the console (if the current user is an administrator and the rdesktop user is an administrator - if neither are admin, it doesn't log out the console user) | 05:29 |

nikkia | dech, your modem is probably running linux! | 05:35 |
CyberMad | test | 05:35 |
dech | in fedora i just pointed my dns to my isp's dns instead of to my router :P | 05:36 |
nikkia | dech, anyway, you need to take the modem out of the resolv.conf list of nameservers, because its running the buggy busybox DNS proxy | 05:36 |
nikkia | dech, yeah, thats what i have to do - my actiontec modem does the same, reports 1.0.0.0 for everything | 05:36 |
nikkia | well, except that i run a caching DNS server on my PC now | 05:36 |
dech | heh im surprised normal web/konversation works :P | 05:36 |

dech | ok so edit my resolv.conf to point to my isps dns instead of my router ? | 05:37 |
dech | Yep :) | 05:37 |
nikkia | dech, 1.0.0.0 is actually the 'right' value for the modem to respond.... | 05:37 |
CyberMad | test | 05:37 |
nikkia | because the busybox does transparent http proxying | 05:37 |
dech | ahh :) | 05:38 |
nikkia | what its doing, is sending back 1.0.0.0 and then rewriting any packet that shows up as 1.0.0.0, and at the same time, offering popup blocking and so on, based on the web site | 05:38 |
jpatrick | :/ | 05:38 |

nikkia | dech, should be the same as you use for the web interface to the modem | 05:42 |
dech | hang on ill check i typed it right | 05:42 |
tenco | CyberMad: sorry, i only install through apt-get | 05:42 |
dech | yeah im checking my web interface to see if its admin r administrator i never had to type the username before :P | 05:43 |
nikkia | admin | 05:43 |
CellarDoor | hussam: hmm thats interesting... afraid I can't be much more help than that as I'm a bit of a n00b myself... I don't have a floppy drive either :P | 05:43 |
dech | yep admin | 05:43 |
dech | hmm | 05:43 |
dech | nope :( | 05:44 |
dech | got admin/mypass | 05:44 |
dech | login incorrect | 05:44 |
CellarDoor | hussam: is it a windows disk or something else ? | 05:44 |
nikkia | dech, strange, and that password works on the web gateway ? | 05:44 |
dech | sure does | 05:44 |
dech | just tried it | 05:44 |
nikkia | how odd | 05:44 |
hussam | CellarDoor: it has files I saved on a windows machine at work | 05:44 |
dech | Hmm | 05:44 |
nikkia | dech, maybe on yours when you changed the web password it didn't change the admin password on the telnet interface too ? | 05:45 |
dech | hmm no i just tried admin/admin (the factory defaults) and it was incorrect | 05:46 |
nikkia | dech, try root/mypass | 05:46 |
nikkia | or root/admin | 05:46 |
nikkia | but it might be that aztec do something evil with the passwords for busybox :( | 05:46 |
dech | Hmm i think so | 05:47 |
dech | cause they were both incorrect too :P | 05:47 |

nikkia | its up to you | 05:54 |
nikkia | as long as the first one is working, it doesn't matter about the second | 05:55 |
nikkia | libc just tries the first, and if it gets no response, goes onto the next | 05:55 |

mornfall | it should allow debootsrapping | 08:04 |
seaLne | "< mornfall> eh, and then dist-upgrade to kubuntu?" implied changing debian to ubuntu to me sorry if i misunderstood | 08:05 |
mornfall | seaLne: well, i debootstrap sarge yes... and how i get kubuntu from that? | 08:06 |
npfet | seaLne: so what if it is debian -> kubuntu? | 08:06 |
seaLne | npfet: it would be weird | 08:06 |
seaLne | why not just bootstrap ubuntu in the first place | 08:06 |
mornfall | seaLne: hmm, i was asking how to debootstrap kubuntu | 08:06 |
seaLne | on an (k)ubuntu machine or a debian machine? | 08:07 |

dech | only prob is i know hwere neither are isntalled ^_^ | 08:30 |
[Surge] | Which is not a problem since you can uninstall them via kynaptic | 08:31 |

apokryphos | CyberMad: repositories are places for Ubuntu to get packages from | 09:24 |
CyberMad | yes | 09:24 |
CyberMad | how to support / add it? | 09:24 |
apokryphos | CyberMad: when you use apt-get, it checks certain places (different "sources") and then downloads packages from there if it can get them | 09:24 |
_edvardas | [Surge] : what do you use then? | 09:24 |
_edvardas | console? | 09:25 |
[Surge] | I always use command line - it's normally faster too | 09:25 |
tgnx | apokryphos, thanks thats lets me switch to my theme also.. i wonder why i couldnt find that package :( i must have used dpkg wrong | 09:25 |
CyberMad | i want to install CodeWeavers CrossOver Office | 09:25 |
apokryphos | to get the proper version you'll need to buy it | 09:25 |

_edvardas | [Surge] : when i unzip (untar) file from command line then it doesn't /tmp? | 09:27 |
apokryphos | CyberMad: if you have the program, the tar, then you would not use apt-get | 09:27 |
[Surge] | _edvardas: "gunzip <name>" for *.gz | 09:27 |
[Surge] | _edvardas: Nope | 09:27 |

dech | :) back | 10:47 |
mike22 | no | 10:47 |
Oblivion | How can I install mozilla | 10:47 |
mike22 | download and follow the install instructions | 10:48 |
dech | woah | 10:48 |
Oblivion | I know that, but what is the name of the package? | 10:49 |
dech | et crashed (assuming its configured to my old vid driver cause it said no open gl) and now my desktop is too big for monitor | 10:49 |
dech | and it scrolls | 10:49 |
dech | wheni move to the sides | 10:49 |
_brent | hmm, i still don't think that will solve my issue anyhow, being that i prefer to browse w/firefox and would want it to use a default email client from firefox (ie send link) it only gives me evolution, which i don't care for. | 10:49 |
_frank | Oblivion: mozilla-browser I think | 10:49 |

_brent | oblivian, apt-get install mozilla | 10:49 |
apokryphos | Oblivion: or just get the mozilla metapackage which will drag that in and a few other mozilla-related things | 10:49 |
_brent | that should work if you have configured your sources list correctly. see ubuntuguide.org | 10:50 |
mike22 | _brent: you might want to check over at #mozilla | 10:52 |
=== dech [n=dech@ppp184-205.static.internode.on.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
mike22 | I think it's server irc.mozilla.net channel #mozilla | 10:52 |
dech | ok | 10:53 |
dech | so | 10:53 |

_brent | ill try thanx | 10:55 |
dech | eh | 10:56 |
dech | just gotta remember where i installed it :P | 10:56 |
_brent | does anyone know what absolute path of thunderbird install is? | 10:56 |
mike22 | _brent: run sudo updatedb | 10:59 |
mike22 | then run locate t-bird | 10:59 |
mike22 | you'll see it's entire dirctory structure | 10:59 |
dech | no uninstall script :( | 11:00 |
dech | just openurl.sh and etded.sh and of course | 11:00 |
dech | et | 11:00 |
mike22 | the update vommand takes a while to execute | 11:01 |

_brent | sorry, im newer to linux and dont fully understand the tree structure | 11:11 |
dech | while you look over it ima restart x cause it made my desktop way bigger than my monitor and i cant see anything unless i croll my monitor to it | 11:12 |
dech | ok nvm | 11:13 |
dech | just changed res to 800x600 then back to 1024x768 and its all good | 11:13 |
[Surge] | You don't have the drivers installed properly | 11:13 |

mike22 | _brent:http://clusty.com/search?query=mozilla+irc | 11:14 |
dech | maybe et is just configured that way | 11:14 |
[Surge] | Not the ATI OpenGL hardware rendering libs | 11:14 |

[Surge] | dech: You shouldn't get less than 3000 FPS in glxgears with your card | 11:15 |
