| foodcoman | Sorry for the blast, but look at 3. | 12:15 |
| foodcoman | or 6. | 12:16 |

| chromate | as the 'user of the word' you have the responsibility to use it accurately | 12:17 |

| nikkia | othernoob: it doesn't really make much difference, tbh | 12:21 |
| apokryphos | It does if you're technical. A belief system is quite different to a religion | 12:21 |
| nikkia | non-relgiious things can be a 'faith', if they adhere to definition 6, and thus produce a word pairing that adheres to definition 5 in the process | 12:21 |

| apokryphos | Atheism is merely the denial of the existence of god(s). | 12:24 |
| apokryphos | the "a" prefix merely implies "not". Not-theist = atheist. | 12:24 |
| othomas | i rest my case..no need to fight for something to not exist | 12:24 |
| apokryphos | othomas: heh, of course there is. Just as much to argue for something to exist, in many cases. | 12:25 |
| foodcoman | You can hold a person "in good faith" Quote from The Prince by Machiavelli, Nicolo | 12:25 |
| othomas | lol | 12:25 |
| apokryphos | foodcoman: I'm sure the sentence would finish as something like "to deceive them", considering. ;-) | 12:26 |
| nikkia | foodcoman: that's definition 1, and i fail to see how it is relevant | 12:26 |
| othomas | i have faith that a religous discussion degenerates to an arguement after a while | 12:26 |
| othernoob | one could also compare 5 and 6 by 5 being a religion and 6 being science.... | 12:26 |
| foodcoman | Nevertheless our experience has been that those princes who have done great things have held good faith of little account, and have known how to circumvent the intellect of men by craft, and in the end have overcome those who have relied on their word. | 12:26 |

| apokryphos | Still, I don't really agree with the supranatural definition of religion. As I said, it's not easy to define. | 12:31 |
| apokryphos | I think it's pretty clear though that a definition of religion is faulty when it ascribes science (scientology -- a.o.k.) as a religion | 12:31 |
| nikkia | apokryphos: i don't see why | 12:32 |
| apokryphos | nikkia: because no-one considers it one, partly, and in many cases a shared-understanding is more vital. | 12:33 |

| froggy25 | this is what it says | 01:33 |
| froggy25 | the light is on the webcam | 01:34 |
| === seth_k|lappy [n=seth@asmallorange.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| froggy25 | and thats it | 01:34 |
| afrosheen | froggy25: ok well what software are you going to use with it | 01:34 |
| froggy25 | software? | 01:34 |
| froggy25 | im using it for instant messaging | 01:34 |
| froggy25 | but dont you have to add and configure this webcam into kde first | 01:35 |
| froggy25 | before you can use it with software | 01:35 |
| afrosheen | not really | 01:35 |
| afrosheen | first you make sure the system knows it's there and initializes it, which has already happened | 01:36 |
| froggy25 | well by what you just saw | 01:36 |
| froggy25 | ok | 01:36 |
| froggy25 | then what | 01:36 |
| afrosheen | then you setup whatever software you're using with it, in this case you have no idea | 01:36 |
| froggy25 | ok | 01:36 |
| afrosheen | I think gnomemeeting or something else works with cams | 01:36 |
| afrosheen | there are a few clients out there | 01:36 |
| froggy25 | are they on synaptic | 01:36 |
| boogster | mercury works, like shit | 01:36 |
| froggy25 | i need one that does yahoo and aim | 01:37 |
| froggy25 | any suggestions | 01:37 |
| afrosheen | good luck | 01:37 |
| boogster | gaim-vv does yahoo receive | 01:37 |

| RogueJediX | Ouch | 01:37 |
| afrosheen | there's supposed to be a special gaim | 01:37 |
| afrosheen | and one other one... | 01:37 |
| froggy25 | ok | 01:37 |
| froggy25 | what is it | 01:37 |
| boogster | gaim-vv doesn't support msn or aol | 01:37 |
| afrosheen | did you try googling for linux webcam | 01:37 |
| froggy25 | not yet | 01:38 |

| boogster | development is seriously slow on webcam support | 01:38 |
| afrosheen | yep it's depressingly slow, I gave up on that prospect last year | 01:38 |
| froggy25 | well i need something to use with this | 01:39 |
| froggy25 | i spent 30 dollars on this | 01:39 |
| afrosheen | hope you kept the receipt | 01:39 |
| boogster | try mercury, it's the only one which claims to work | 01:39 |
| afrosheen | lol | 01:39 |
| afrosheen | I guess that was discouraging | 01:39 |
| bobbyd | gnomemeeting works with lots of webcams | 01:40 |
| afrosheen | yeah I mentioned that already but nobody uses it | 01:40 |
| bobbyd | there is no video yahoo and msn client though | 01:41 |
| boogster | but no one uses gnomemeeting | 01:41 |
| afrosheen | and he wants to get on LOL R U 4 WINDOZE chat rooms on aol/yahoo | 01:41 |
| bobbyd | someone should write one :) | 01:41 |
| bobbyd | it would be ok if there was a Jabber equivalent | 01:41 |
| bobbyd | but there isn't at the moment, so it's pretty poor | 01:41 |
| boogster | http://www.mercury.to/ | 01:41 |
| afrosheen | well sip video will end up stomping all this stuff eventually | 01:42 |
| bobbyd | of course you could just try to run MSN messenger or Yahoo under wine :) | 01:42 |
| boogster | yeah but wine sucks | 01:43 |
| boogster | Receiving Webcam is supported on all operating systems. This functionality is built into the program, so no extra files need to be downloaded or installed. | 01:43 |
| boogster | Sending webcam is supported in 1709 RC7 and later. | 01:43 |

| bobbyd | boogster, I think wine is really cool | 01:44 |
| afrosheen | wine is cool the 10% of the time I can get it to do something right | 01:44 |
| boogster | it is, but wine is SLOW, native code is what everyone should be using | 01:45 |
| ian | I just got an asus wl-167g usb dongle for wifi, the kernel moduel (rt2500) is loaded and it dosn't show up in my networking config | 01:45 |
| ian | suggestions? | 01:45 |
| bobbyd | afrosheen, cedega is nice if you'd like to pay for it | 01:45 |
| === apokryphos only ever uses wine for a small chess.exe app he has, and it works ok with it. | ||
| afrosheen | if I'm going that route I'll buy crossover office | 01:45 |
| bobbyd | ian, can you see it with lsusb ? | 01:45 |
| ian | bobbyd - cedega is cheap from torrentreactor.net | 01:46 |
| afrosheen | and I have paid for cedega in the past | 01:46 |
| bobbyd | ian, yeah, I prefer to pay them for it | 01:46 |
| boogster | i prefer to pirate it, arrrrrr | 01:46 |
| ian | thats good too, I never made it work well | 01:46 |
| ian | yeah, the device shoes \\] ] | 01:46 |
| afrosheen | for that matter just download from cvs and build it, why pirate what's free | 01:46 |
| ian | gah, shows up in lsusb | 01:46 |
| bobbyd | I get a lot of use out of cedega, I think it's a good product | 01:46 |
| ian | all I ever tried with it was cs 1.6 and it was too tweaky for good cs ownage | 01:47 |
| ian | well, it ran starcraft fine, but I don't play that anymore | 01:47 |
| bobbyd | afrosheen, don't you think the guys doing the work deserve some money? it's not exactly expensive | 01:47 |
| bobbyd | it think it's funny that whenever poeple try to make money out of free software, people just steal it | 01:47 |
| afrosheen | bobbyd: scroll up and read | 01:47 |
| ian | so, the device is in lsusb, module is loaded, why can't I configure it? | 01:48 |
| RogueJediX | bobbyd: People would pay for it, if they knew if their games actually worked | 01:48 |
| apokryphos | bobbyd: I think it's funnier when it's non-free ;-) | 01:48 |
| ian | I also just rebooted | 01:48 |
| boogster | i'm going to watch some pr0n, see you later | 01:48 |
| ian | boogster: yeah, have fun buddy | 01:48 |
| bobbyd | afrosheen, I reallise you said you'd paid for it, but you were just saying people shouldn't | 01:48 |
| bobbyd | RogueJediX, they have a list of games that work | 01:48 |
| afrosheen | well they offer it for free via cvs, HOWEVER you don't get full functionality due to things they build into the for-sale version | 01:49 |
| afrosheen | so it's a tradeoff anyway | 01:49 |
| bobbyd | RogueJediX, for things like Source Engine based games, it's very difficult to keep them working because valve patch it all the time | 01:49 |
| RogueJediX | bobbyd: They have a list of games that are rated on how well they work, but no instructions | 01:49 |
| bobbyd | RogueJediX, I've found that the games they rate as workign usually work, but YMMV :) | 01:49 |
| bobbyd | and just for the record, I think it's better when developers and publishers can release games for linux, but it's not really commercially viable. | 01:50 |
| RogueJediX | bobbyd: I know mine did. never did get NFS: Road Challenge working | 01:50 |
| bobbyd | and when there were native ports (from loki) lots of people just copied them | 01:50 |
| afrosheen | we can always count on Id to give us unpopular games now ;) | 01:50 |
| bobbyd | yeah, doom3 was a bit of a mess on linux | 01:51 |
| RogueJediX | Linux - the abandonware OS :P | 01:51 |
| afrosheen | doom3 sucked period | 01:51 |
| === locomorto [n=locomort@c211-28-127-217.eburwd3.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ian | bobbyd : doom3 ran better on linux than on windows for me | 01:51 |
| bobbyd | RogueJediX, quite often it's silly things like the installers that stop games working | 01:51 |
| ian | however that works | 01:51 |
| bobbyd | ian, but not at all on ATI cards... | 01:51 |
| locomorto | a little tip: use loki installers over all else | 01:51 |
| locomorto | theres one for doom 3 | 01:51 |
| ian | oh, I'm on nvidia | 01:51 |
| === ManLord [n=martin@220.80-202-255.nextgentel.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ian | :) | 01:52 |
| bobbyd | yeah, the loci installers are great | 01:52 |
| afrosheen | yep, I third that | 01:52 |
| locomorto | And a whole heap of cedega/wine(x) games | 01:52 |
| RogueJediX | bobbyd: In that case, you can always copy it from a windows install if you have one available, but my game got stuck when I tried to run it | 01:52 |
| bobbyd | however i think the doom3 problems were mainly crappy drivers from ATI | 01:52 |
| === Pyf [n=fyp@cpc3-basf3-6-1-cust55.nott.cable.ntl.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| locomorto | what vid card do you have? | 01:52 |
| bobbyd | RogueJediX, things like people useing quicktime for the intro movies, loads of things can go wrong | 01:52 |
| locomorto | And what version of the ATi drivers | 01:52 |
| RogueJediX | I think I saw some work on a new Linux installer on happypenguin. BitRock or something | 01:52 |
| afrosheen | I kinda feel sorry for ati owners | 01:52 |
| Pyf | how do i setup shared folders so ppl on windows computers can copy all my music? | 01:53 |
| bobbyd | locomorto, radeon 9800 and the latest drivers. There was a know bug where D3 would just lock up | 01:53 |
| locomorto | actually my ATi mobility radeon 9600 works very well under the 8.14.13 drivers | 01:53 |
| RogueJediX | bobbyd: That's true | 01:53 |
| bobbyd | Pyf, you need NFS | 01:53 |
| afrosheen | Pyf: click on your konqueror icon, select network shares, follow the yellow brick road | 01:53 |
| locomorto | pfs, samba | 01:53 |
| bobbyd | locomorto, oops, yeah :) | 01:54 |
| bobbyd | afrosheen, does that 'just work' ? | 01:54 |
| afrosheen | bobbyd: try it, looks viable | 01:54 |
| locomorto | Anyway, has anyone seen the new kubuntu login screens in breezy? | 01:54 |
| bobbyd | I'm working on a home project that I hope to relelase on linux. | 01:54 |
| locomorto | I just got them after unborking xorg | 01:54 |
| bobbyd | I hope that the company I work for will release the game I'm working on for linux, but it's a difficult sell. | 01:55 |
| RogueJediX | Screenshots? | 01:55 |
| afrosheen | bobbyd: the samba scripts in knoppmyth are unbelievably perfect | 01:55 |
| bobbyd | afrosheen, cool :) | 01:55 |
| afrosheen | run one command and all the proper folders are mounted r/w for your workgroup | 01:55 |
| locomorto | RogueJediX: i'm not in the mood to set qemu up | 01:55 |
| Pyf | afrosheen: where is "network shares"? | 01:55 |
| RogueJediX | locomorto: Alright then, no prob | 01:56 |
| locomorto | Internet & Networking -> Samba | 01:56 |
| afrosheen | Pyf: should say 'network folders' when you open konqueror from the taskbar | 01:56 |
| Pyf | afrosheen: yeah i get that, then what do i do, to share a folder on this machine? | 01:57 |
| afrosheen | unless I have mine setup some crazy way, I get a few links after clicking konq | 01:57 |
| afrosheen | Pyf: what icons do you get next | 01:57 |
| Pyf | samba and add a network folder | 01:57 |
| afrosheen | hmmm which one could it be... | 01:57 |
| === afrosheen flips a coin | ||
| afrosheen | survey says? add a network folder | 01:57 |
| Pyf | add a network folder seems to be adding a link to a remtooe folder though? | 01:57 |
| afrosheen | doh! | 01:58 |
| afrosheen | yeah..uh..hang on :) | 01:58 |
| Pyf | "select the type of folder u wish to connect to" | 01:58 |
| Pyf | i wanna share not connect... | 01:58 |
| === afrosheen hits himself with a clue stick | ||
| Pyf | ok thx :) | 01:58 |
| afrosheen | ok let's try it this way, open your home folder, right click, select properties, then the sharing tab | 01:59 |
| RogueJediX | Pyf: Right clicking on a folder in konqueror and then clicking on the share tab works form e | 01:59 |
| RogueJediX | *for me | 01:59 |
| bobbyd | Pyf, right click a directory, click properties, then share | 01:59 |
| bobbyd | afrosheen, oops, i was a little behind there | 02:00 |

| Pyf | so how would the person on the windows machine go about acceessing the newly shared folder? | 02:01 |
| RogueJediX | Pyf: My sis sees my shared folders in Network Places | 02:02 |
| locomorto | Pyf: The same way as if it was another windows machine | 02:02 |
| bobbyd | Pyf, I think you give it the name when you share it | 02:02 |
| jsubl2 | Pyf: if you try it the dialog boxes are real easy to follow. and it tells you the share name | 02:03 |
| afrosheen | yessir | 02:03 |
| RogueJediX | Heh. Supportspam | 02:03 |
| Pyf | hmmm, maybe im being dumb then... | 02:03 |
| bobbyd | Pyf, tell me your root password and I'll help you out :) | 02:04 |
| Pyf | not that stupid | 02:04 |
| Pyf | :) | 02:04 |
| afrosheen | pyf: just remember that by default you will be in a different workgroup, windows defaults to the mshome group | 02:05 |
| afrosheen | so you may have to do a \\ubuntu\pyfbox\whateverfolder in her browser window then map the share | 02:05 |
| afrosheen | not sure what that path should read | 02:05 |
| Pyf | i think thats where im having problems, i cant work out what that path should be | 02:06 |
| afrosheen | Pyf: you already shared the folder right | 02:06 |
| Pyf | i think so | 02:06 |
| afrosheen | who knows kubuntu's default workgroup | 02:06 |
| afrosheen | maybe...workgroup | 02:07 |
| afrosheen | \\workgroup\yourmachine'shostname\foldername | 02:07 |
| afrosheen | or even easier, \\workgroup\yourmachine'shostname | 02:07 |
| Pyf | thats not it | 02:07 |

| Fonzi | kubuntu* | 04:41 |
| othomas | <smile> quite a change | 04:42 |
| Fonzi | yes..especially for the wife and kids :) | 04:42 |
| othomas | eek..lol | 04:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | lol | 04:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | good luck :) | 04:42 |
| othomas | uh-huh | 04:42 |
| Fonzi | tux racer is all the kids care about and as long as email is downloading the wife seems to be happy | 04:42 |
| othomas | ok, that works..haha | 04:43 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | lol. classic | 04:43 |
| othomas | yup | 04:43 |
| othomas | how do you like it? | 04:43 |
| Fonzi | i have had quite a few calls at work though with stuff like "umm how do i get on the internet now.." :) | 04:43 |
| othomas | acckkk | 04:43 |
| Fonzi | i love it..im having little problems here and there but its working ok.. | 04:43 |
| othomas | same here.. | 04:44 |
| Fonzi | first problem is that i keep double clicking everything | 04:44 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | mmmm.... | 04:44 |
| Fonzi | hehe.. | 04:44 |
| othomas | LOL | 04:44 |
| othomas | hi KK | 04:44 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | hi ot | 04:44 |
| othomas | :) | 04:44 |
| Fonzi | i need to spend some time getting the multimedia stuff to work..i cant do anything with amarok | 04:45 |
| Fonzi | says no engine found when i try to play something | 04:45 |
| othomas | what you trying to play? | 04:45 |
| Fonzi | but xmms seems to work ok.. | 04:45 |
| Fonzi | an internet station | 04:45 |
| othomas | ohh. stick with xmms | 04:46 |
| Fonzi | xmms is great i just miss the ability to have bookmarks | 04:46 |
| Fonzi | from winamp | 04:46 |
| apokryphos | Fonzi: xmms is pretty bad, considering the competition | 04:46 |
| othomas | it's called favorites with xmms | 04:46 |
| Fonzi | but where do i set a favorite? | 04:47 |
| === apokryphos is still bedazzled by people using archaic xmms | ||
| othomas | LOL apok | 04:47 |
| Fonzi | apokryphose what do you suggest instead? | 04:47 |
| apokryphos | ubotu: tell Fonzi about players | 04:48 |
| apokryphos | Fonzi: my personal favourites are easily amaroK and JuK | 04:48 |
| Fonzi | but i cant get amarok to play a radiop station.. | 04:48 |
| Fonzi | says no engine found | 04:48 |
| Fonzi | radio* | 04:48 |
| apokryphos | not sure how it is exactly with streams; you can ask in #amarok | 04:49 |
| apokryphos | but, install the amarok-engine (or something) pack to get the other engines | 04:49 |
| Fonzi | ok..ill check overthere later on | 04:49 |
| === apokryphos runs off to bed now | ||
| Fonzi | hmm..looks like amarok engines is what i need.. | 04:49 |
| Fonzi | amazing what find and kynaptic can do for you :) | 04:50 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | jesusfish: i could never get it to run, but it seems that could be because i (have an smp kernel) | 05:02 |

| noc | anybody know how to upgrade kubuntu libc ? | 06:40 |
| nalioth | noc: what version are you running now? warty, hoary or breezy? | 06:41 |
| noc | i cannot install jre1.4 with 2.3.2.ds1-20ubuntu13 version | 06:41 |
| noc | hoary | 06:41 |
| noc | i need libc higher than 2.3.2.ds1-21 | 06:41 |
| nalioth | noc: breezy kubuntu will be out oct 13 | 06:42 |
| noc | omg | 06:42 |
| noc | its too long | 06:42 |
| crimsun | noc: you should use 'java-package' (in multiverse) to create a deb from Sun's/IBM's JRE | 06:42 |
| noc | is there another solution ? | 06:42 |
| nalioth | if you upgrade your libc, you'll break your machine | 06:43 |
| noc | my application always crash with sun-jre1.5 | 06:43 |
| noc | its stable in 1.4 or 1.3 | 06:43 |
| crimsun | so create a deb of 1.4.2 | 06:43 |
| crimsun | that's precisely what I did | 06:43 |
| crimsun | Classic VM (build 1.4.2, J2RE 1.4.2 IBM build cxia32142-20050609 (JIT enabled: jitc)) | 06:43 |
| noc | you mean like downloading the tar.ball and create the .deb ? | 06:44 |
| crimsun | yep, it's automatic | 06:44 |
| noc | hmm.. im trying with tar ball also, but it's show a depedency with libc | 06:44 |
| noc | # ./bin/java | 06:44 |
| noc | /home/noc/jre1.3.1_02/bin/i386/native_threads/java: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 06:44 |
| noc | im not sure if i compile into .deb it can fix the problem | 06:45 |
| noc | btw crimsun, can you show me url how to compile from source tar ball to .deb ? | 06:45 |
| crimsun | you don't compile the _source_ | 06:45 |
| crimsun | you download the jre tgz | 06:46 |
| crimsun | then you use make-jpkg | 06:46 |
| noc | .tgz mean slackware / bsd package ? | 06:46 |
| crimsun | no, I mean the tarball of the binary that Sun or IBM provides | 06:46 |
| crimsun | (as opposed to the RPM) | 06:46 |
| noc | oh i c | 06:47 |
| noc | # whereis make-jpkg | 06:47 |
| noc | make-jpkg: | 06:47 |
| crimsun | install java-package (in multiverse) like I said | 06:47 |
| noc | sorry make-jpkg is a command line or what ? | 06:47 |
| crimsun | it's a script, just like kernel-package's make-kpkg | 06:48 |

| noc | oh ok, thanks crimsun | 06:50 |
| noc | E: Couldn't find package java-package | 06:52 |
| crimsun | you must enable the multiverse repository. | 06:53 |
| noc | where can i find an available mirror site for java-package ? sun ? | 06:54 |
| noc | blackport ? | 06:54 |
| noc | deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-backports main universe multiverse restricted ?? | 06:54 |
| crimsun | java-package is in multiverse | 06:55 |
| noc | oke thanks | 06:55 |
| crimsun | it's in Ubuntu's repository, not an external one | 06:55 |
| noc | i found it | 06:55 |
| noc | fakeroot make-jpkg j2re-1_3_1_02-linux-i386.bin | 06:59 |

| ndazza | hi | 08:40 |
| _lucian | can you help with a thing nVidia & X related? | 08:40 |
| ndazza | maybe, just ask and someone will reply though | 08:41 |
| _lucian | i have installed nvidia drivers, and i have modified xorg.conf as they say | 08:41 |
| _lucian | but when i reboot it goes blank and says it couldn't find GLX | 08:42 |
| _lucian | what can i do to make it work | 08:42 |
| _lucian | ? | 08:42 |
| ndazza | make sure you have the nvidia-glx package installed, and make sure the line Load "glx" appears in your xorg.conf | 08:42 |
| _lucian | it appears | 08:43 |
| ndazza | and the package? | 08:43 |
| _lucian | and nvidia glx is installed | 08:43 |
| _lucian | yes | 08:43 |
| ndazza | type: less /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 08:43 |
| ndazza | look down near the bottom of the file, see if there's any lines that start with (EE) | 08:44 |

| _lucian | in the Xorg.0.log says, but without the (EE) in front of it, that: | 08:45 |
| _lucian | (--) PCI:*(2:0:0) nVidia Corporation unknown chipset (0x0045) rev 161, Mem @ 0xe0000000/24, 0xd0000000/28, 0xe1000000/24 | 08:45 |
| _lucian | but in the readme file that came with the driver it says it works with chipset 0x0045, which is Geforce 6800GT | 08:46 |
| ndazza | _lucian: the nvidia binary driver is generic, it should work ok with any nvidia graphics card | 08:48 |
| _lucian | i have many warnings about generic monitor and the following (EE) message: | 08:48 |
| _lucian | (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (NVIDIA X driver not found) | 08:48 |
| ndazza | ahh | 08:48 |
| _lucian | what is that? | 08:48 |
| ndazza | try sudo modprobe nvidia | 08:48 |
| chavo | _lucian, is nvidia-glx installed? | 08:49 |
| ndazza | means the nvidia driver isn't loaded into memory | 08:49 |
| _lucian | what it is supposed to do? | 08:49 |
| ndazza | type lsmod | grep nvidia | 08:49 |
| ndazza | if there's no output your nvidia kernel module hasn't been loaded | 08:49 |
| _lucian | sudo modprobe nvidia - doesn't do anything | 08:50 |
| ndazza | that has to be done before X starts or you won't get an accelerated X server | 08:50 |
| _lucian | i'm in kde right now | 08:51 |
| _lucian | for that i have to reboot but not load x? | 08:51 |
| ndazza | no, you can load the module now | 08:51 |
| ndazza | and test to see if it works by typing startx -- :1 | 08:52 |
| _lucian | how do i do that | 08:52 |
| _lucian | ? | 08:52 |
| ndazza | first check if it is loaded - lsmod | grep nvidia | 08:52 |
| _lucian | i did that, but i don't know what the result means... | 08:53 |
| === after8 [n=aftertaf@sara2lee.agns.fr] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| _lucian | nvidia_agp 7452 1 | 08:53 |
| _lucian | agpgart 31784 2 nvidia,nvidia_agp | 08:53 |
| ndazza | ok, the modules are loaded then | 08:53 |
| ndazza | try startx -- :1 | 08:54 |
| ndazza | you should get a new window | 08:54 |
| ndazza | to switch between them you will need to use Ctrl+Alt+F7 and Ctrl+Alt+F8 | 08:54 |

| ndazza | hmm ok | 08:55 |
| ndazza | it will probably be easier to restart X then | 08:55 |
| _lucian | you mean right now? | 08:56 |
| ndazza | yeah, to see if loading that module fixes the problem | 08:56 |
| _lucian | with the xorg.conf modified or not? | 08:56 |
| ndazza | yes, modified | 08:56 |
| _lucian | but how do i load the module? | 08:56 |
| ndazza | it is loaded | 08:56 |
| ndazza | it should have loaded when you typed modprobe nvidia | 08:57 |
| _lucian | but when i restart x it won't unload the module? | 08:57 |
| ndazza | no, the kernel module will stay loaded until it is unloaded or until the system restarts | 08:57 |
| _lucian | ok | 08:58 |
| _lucian | i'll do that, and then come back | 08:58 |
| ndazza | okay | 08:58 |

| ndazza | i think it's working | 10:04 |
| _lucian | what is that??? | 10:04 |
| ndazza | glxgears is used as a sort of standard benchmark | 10:04 |
| _lucian | and is it good? | 10:04 |
| ndazza | to see if 1) OpenGL apps work and 2) you are getting the performance you expect from an openGL application | 10:04 |
| nikkia | _lucian: its not 'good' or 'bad', its just a way to tell if GL is accelerated or not | 10:05 |
| ndazza | if your fps is less than about a thousand something is probably broken | 10:05 |
| ndazza | and if it doesn't start it's definately broken | 10:05 |

| mornfall | aftertaf: are you sure it was running in foreground? :) | 10:06 |
| ndazza | nikkia: it could be minimised or hidden by a window | 10:06 |

| === aftertaf [n=aftertaf@sara2lee.agns.fr] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | ndazza: i think my non-accelerated laptop gets about 1200fps if its minimised, and about 400fps if its a normal non-obscured window | 10:07 |
| ndazza | nikkia: not if....... he has recompiled glxgears to skip the actual drawing of the graphics. or if he's running on a cell cpu. or if......... i dunno i suppose you're right | 10:07 |
| _lucian | what are you talking about??? | 10:08 |
| ndazza | i can't check cos breezy's glxgears doesn't give you an fps | 10:08 |
| ndazza | hehe | 10:08 |
| nikkia | ndazza: you're in to the realms of 'not trusting ANY glxgears output with those tho :) | 10:08 |
| nikkia | ndazza: and i doubt that it running on a cell would change it much, tbh | 10:08 |
| nikkia | ndazza: about all that could be offloaded on a SPE would be the T&L, but thats not usually where software GL is bottlenecked anyway | 10:09 |
| _lucian | do you have some more time to axplain me another problem that i have encounterd? | 10:09 |
| ndazza | nikkia: cells are optimised for parallel work... much like gfx cards | 10:09 |

| ndazza | _lucian: so ask away | 10:09 |
| _lucian | ok | 10:09 |
| nikkia | ndazza: they have a very finite set of things they are good for, software OpenGL wouldn't map very well | 10:09 |
| ndazza | nikkia: ok ok so there's no way he doesn't have acceleration :D | 10:09 |

| mornfall | nikkia: software gl is very slow on any cpu i know of | 10:18 |
| mornfall | nikkia: the problem is not computing power but fillrate | 10:18 |
| nalioth | ndazza: perhaps i should join #ubuntu-de or -fr | 10:18 |
| nikkia | mornfall: compared to hw, yes | 10:18 |
| mornfall | nikkia: even a cheap gpu has many times higher fill rate than any consumer cpu | 10:18 |
| nikkia | mornfall: but in theory, software GL on a decent CPU like a G5, should approach the level of hw GL on oldish hw | 10:18 |

| Gmp | "says "media:/sda1 does not exist5" | 10:22 |
| ndazza | Gmp: try sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 | 10:23 |
| Gmp | without the 5 | 10:23 |
| Gmp | okay | 10:23 |
| ndazza | you will probably need to create the directory /media/sda1 first | 10:23 |
| mornfall | nikkia: considering nontrivial portion of the gl api is emulated in software for mga, i just guess it boils down to the fillrate | 10:23 |
| nikkia | gmp, its possible you might have the crappy usb-storage driver loaded, in which case it'll be uba1 and likely not work (as the ub* driver is designed for memory cards, and doesn't handle a lot else) | 10:23 |

| Gmp | ahh | 10:41 |
| ice | gmp you know how active telnet daemon in kubuntu? | 10:41 |
| ndazza | ice: i think you need to put a line in /etc/inetd.conf | 10:41 |
| Gmp | : /dev/sda1 on /media/sda1 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=winnt,vid=1000,gid=1000,vmask=077,locharset=ctfs) | 10:42 |
| ndazza | yay! looks like that was done automatically too | 10:42 |
| ice | i go to try | 10:42 |

| ndazza | ice: you have installed the telnetd package? | 10:45 |
| ice | yes | 10:45 |
| ice | i installed telnetd | 10:45 |
| ndazza | ice: i just installed telnetd then and i'm able to connect without configuring it | 10:45 |
| ice | i cant | 10:46 |
| ice | i will test with the line | 10:46 |
| ndazza | ice: installing the package added this line to my inetd.conf: | 10:46 |
| ndazza | telnet stream tcp nowait telnetd.telnetd /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.telnetd | 10:46 |
| ice | not to me :D | 10:46 |
| ndazza | bad luck :) you obviously didn't insert a 20c piece first | 10:47 |
| ndazza | oh... that's probably an australianism | 10:47 |

| fluffybunny_ | konversation is kool - all the IRC commands work | 12:06 |
| setite | but i found the option for it in conversation | 12:06 |
| setite | do they | 12:06 |
| fluffybunny_ | like /hop #channelname etc etc | 12:06 |
| setite | we'll test that | 12:06 |
| setite | does /server -m work | 12:06 |
| nalioth | setite: so you are fixed up now? | 12:06 |
| fluffybunny_ | try it? | 12:06 |
| setite | nope it doesnt | 12:06 |
| fluffybunny_ | lol | 12:06 |
| fluffybunny_ | what does it do? | 12:06 |
| setite | must be a mIRC specific thing | 12:06 |
| setite | it goes to server -m | 12:07 |
| setite | on mirc it stands for multipe | 12:07 |
| setite | multiple | 12:07 |
| Gmp | no wine not work | 12:07 |
| setite | so you can join another server and stay connected to current one | 12:07 |
| fluffybunny_ | sorry - must be mIRC... konversation at least supports more /commands than gaim though... | 12:07 |
| setite | oh yea gaim is a joke | 12:07 |
| Chousuke | any of the /commands are just aliases. | 12:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gaim is a jack of all trades | 12:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | master of none ;) | 12:07 |
| Chousuke | irc itself has only a few. | 12:08 |
| fluffybunny_ | setite: gaim is great for IM, not so great for IRC | 12:08 |
| setite | master of none.. exactl | 12:08 |
| setite | y | 12:08 |
| Chousuke | irssi for the win! | 12:08 |
| setite | i think it finally transfers files over aim | 12:08 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i use it for eveything | 12:08 |
| setite | when i used it on warty it didnt | 12:08 |
| setite | irssi pfft | 12:08 |
| fluffybunny_ | i like gaim for IM - mostly cause I can log in to all of my accounts (unlike, eg, yahoo, vs msn messenger) | 12:08 |
| setite | im sorry but i have no need for irssi or vi or all that old school | 12:08 |
| setite | i use kopete | 12:08 |
| Chousuke | does any other irc client have anything like recode? | 12:08 |
| setite | i like the customization of the chat | 12:08 |
| mornfall | irssi > * | 12:09 |
| Chousuke | irssi is customisable. :) | 12:09 |
| Gmp | gcc doesn't work | 12:09 |
| setite | i hate how the wikis are always for ubuntu/gnome | 12:09 |
| setite | they need a kde version | 12:09 |
| mornfall | because ubuntu is a gnome distribution | 12:09 |
| setite | im aware of that | 12:09 |
| fluffybunny_ | ok, i take it all back about the commands in konversation (/hop doesn't work) | 12:10 |
| setite | my point remains | 12:10 |
| mornfall | what did you expect then? | 12:10 |
| ndazza | fluffybunny_: try kopete | 12:10 |
| nalioth | irssi is not "old school" | 12:10 |
| setite | yay my ma111 is a prism | 12:10 |
| Chousuke | fluffybunny_: which /hop? P | 12:10 |
| setite | its text based is it not? | 12:10 |
| fluffybunny_ | ndazza: what is kopete? | 12:10 |
| ndazza | kde's gaim | 12:10 |
| nalioth | setite: yes it is | 12:10 |
| fluffybunny_ | Chousuke: /hop #kubuntu | 12:10 |
| setite | fluffybunny_: kde gaim type app | 12:10 |
| Chousuke | it can mean hallf-opiing something or leaving the channel and joining it. | 12:10 |
| mornfall | setite: dude, people are using irssi on winders and osx... | 12:10 |
| setite | msn, aim, yahoo, bla bla | 12:10 |
| setite | it may not be old... but it is old school | 12:11 |
| mornfall | setite: msn, jabber, icq here (on irssi) | 12:11 |
| === Chousuke is using Irssi on a linux box he's using through ssh on OS X :P | ||
| setite | ok the only thing i miss on gnome is the network app | 12:11 |
| Chousuke | the thing with irssi is that you can access it from anywhere. | 12:11 |
| === setite throws a box of cookies out | ||
| === blowjobba [n=jontiz@c-6feee253.15-3-64736c10.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Chousuke | no gui client can do that. | 12:11 |
| fluffybunny_ | setite: comes with kde by default? | 12:12 |
| ndazza | setite: you can use it under kde i think | 12:12 |
| setite | fluffybunny_: yes | 12:12 |
| mornfall | Chousuke: irssi 2 in theory can :) | 12:12 |
| mornfall | Chousuke: not seen it in practice yet | 12:12 |
| ndazza | is irssi much different from centericq? | 12:12 |
| fluffybunny_ | setite: run it from the CL: kopete? | 12:12 |
| Chousuke | irssi2 is not an irc client :P | 12:12 |
| setite | ndazza: i just need to find something lik eit... dmesg shows my ma111 loaded... | 12:12 |
| setite | fluffybunny_: probably... also under the internet apps | 12:12 |
| Chousuke | it's a multi-protocol client proxy thingamajig | 12:12 |
| ndazza | setite: i have no idea what that is! | 12:12 |
| mornfall | Chousuke: well, i'm currently using irssi-proxy anyway :) | 12:12 |
| Chousuke | heh. | 12:13 |
| setite | ndazza: usb wifi adaptor... i need to configure it... but im just gonna start with the ifconfigs | 12:13 |
| fluffybunny_ | setite: i have xchat, gaim and konverstaion... no kopete | 12:13 |
| Chousuke | Irssi is THE irc client. ;/ | 12:13 |
| setite | you should | 12:14 |
| Chousuke | recode only makes it vastly superior to any other. :) | 12:14 |
| setite | it came with my kde default | 12:14 |
| mornfall | Chousuke: recode is available in almost any irc client out there, eh? | 12:15 |
| mornfall | (definitely in konvi) | 12:15 |
| Chousuke | I haven't found it then | 12:15 |
| Chousuke | And I don't use KDE anyway. :/ | 12:16 |
| setite | brb.. maybe restarting x will help | 12:16 |

| spiral | tucoz: don't have the command xdpyinfo ? | 01:27 |

| nikkia | wildman: see, when you're not using the machine, memory 'in use' will get paged out, and when you 'wake the machine/apps' up again, that memory will be paged back in again | 01:48 |
| after8 | fluffybunny_> /nick fluffy_madProfessor :D | 01:48 |
| nalioth | fluffybunny_: rapid nick changes are also a sign of impending channel attack from that user (on some networks)(keep that in mind) | 01:48 |
| wildman | nikkia: I know, I know ;-) I'm not a noobie ;) | 01:49 |
| fluffybunny_ | nalioth: omg, i feel like such a n00b | 01:49 |
| nikkia | wildman: its possible, the locate database gets updated on an anacron task, and that can take a few hours if you're unlucky | 01:49 |
| wildman | nikkia: this sounded to me a bit more like some auto-check... but I dunno which one | 01:49 |
| wildman | nikkia: oh, maybe it was that one, indeed... thx. I'll keep an eye anyway ;) | 01:49 |
| fluffybunny_ | nalioth: i usually frequent channels like this, which have very little but text --> as opposed to, say #beginner in Undernet | 01:49 |

| fluffybunny_ | nalioth: :) | 01:50 |
| nalioth | fluffybunny_: i dont frequent anything but freenode | 01:50 |
| === after8 is a relative newbie | ||
| === nalioth has had his days on EFNET | ||
| nikkia | wildman: doing a ps -aux should indicate if 'find' is running anywhere, that'd be a sign that either the locate db is getting updated, or that one of the security checks (the permisions/dead-links check usually) is running | 01:50 |

| tizon | how can i update my kubuntu to Kubuntu Breezy Preview with apt? | 01:51 |
| apokryphos | hehe | 01:51 |
| wildman | nikkia: yeah, will run it next time, disk activity stoppped a few mins ago, when I "started using" the computer (maybe it's just coincidence) | 01:51 |
| after8 | !upgrade2breezy | 01:51 |
| ubotu | The guide to upgrading to breezy (5.10) is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade | 01:51 |
| tizon | ok, thx | 01:51 |
| apokryphos | tizon: you'll want to update to the latest breezy; check that link provided. You also don't need any more kubuntu.org links in your sources.list | 01:51 |
| kakalto | but it's not released stable yet, is it? | 01:51 |
| apokryphos | kakalto: correct | 01:52 |
| apokryphos | You could run into problems | 01:52 |
| nikkia | wildman, are you using beagle ? | 01:52 |
| wildman | no that I know of :) | 01:52 |
| wildman | Kubuntu here, not Ubuntu, so little gnome stuff | 01:52 |
| nikkia | fair enough, just that can use lots of disk activity when the machine is idle, then stop when the machine isn't idle anymore | 01:52 |
| nikkia | wildman: beagle itself isn't gnome, just the main beagle UI is | 01:53 |
| wildman | nikkia: and appart from a few games, NVidia drivers, and DocBook/XML stuff, it's a fairly standard install | 01:53 |
| nikkia | but yeah, beagle isn't a standard install, so you'd know if you'd installed, and were using, it | 01:53 |

| nalioth | after8: installing "kubuntu-desktop" is sufficient | 01:54 |
| apokryphos | after8: no, just change your sources, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:54 |
| nikkia | wildman: maybe leave a task manager window open when you leave the machine tonight, then you might see what is consuming cpu/memory when you come back to it ? | 01:54 |
| apokryphos | after8: but make sure you have kubuntu-desktop installed before you dist-upgrade. | 01:54 |
| apokryphos | after8: well, before you change your sources, that is. | 01:55 |
| after8 | oki | 01:55 |

| apokryphos | no problem | 01:56 |
| wildman | the only process eating my cpu is seti@home, which does very little I/O | 01:56 |
| nikkia | wildman: hmmm, but seti DOES use memory, it could have been paging due to seti | 01:57 |
| wildman | 512MB RAM were always more than enough nikkia .... | 01:57 |
| nikkia | and seti would fit the 'it stopped when i started using the machine' profile | 01:57 |
| wildman | if that was the pb, I'm going back to Mandriva in less than 1 minute ;) | 01:57 |
| after8 | i have a qu... i have 512 mb sdram and 1Gb swap...... sysmonitor shows i barely ever use any swap... | 01:58 |
| nikkia | after8, congrats :) | 01:58 |
| after8 | did i give it too much swap? | 01:58 |
| nikkia | after8, not unless you are short of disk space elsewhere | 01:58 |
| after8 | hehe ok... | 01:59 |
| nikkia | having 'too much' swap, up to a point, is harmless, its a nice safety net in case you ever need it tho | 01:59 |
| after8 | same on laptop... 256 Mb & 620mb swap, only ever uses 6% max | 01:59 |
| nikkia | otoh, my memory usage is: 744MB of 1GB physical memory used, 910MB of 2GB swap used | 01:59 |
| wildman | nikkia: you do stress your machine :) | 01:59 |
| nikkia | wildman: i do, yes | 02:00 |
| after8 | whats the command again? | 02:00 |
| after8 | for mem free? | 02:00 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | mmm. i can operate for several weeks at a time without hitting my 512 mb of ram, let alone swap | 02:00 |
| wildman | free IIRC | 02:00 |
| after8 | free yeah... | 02:00 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | (but then i hit swap and crash ;O) | 02:01 |
| after8 | like when i asked for the uptime one.. uptime :D | 02:01 |
| wildman | after8: well... asking for the copy or move one would have had a different effect ;) | 02:01 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | nikkia: breezy uses openoffice2 beta | 05:25 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | it replaces openoffice as part of the upgrade | 05:25 |
| nikkia | Kamping_Kaiser: urgh, bad practice :) | 05:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | (as long as you have the ubuntu/kubutu-desktop meta package installed) | 05:26 |

| Abdul_Mueid | I have Hoary at the moment | 05:31 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | Abdul_Mueid: ask away, and you might get a responce :) | 05:31 |
| Abdul_Mueid | didn't download breezy | 05:31 |
| othomas | i am just decideing to make the upgrade as we speak | 05:31 |
| Abdul_Mueid | first of all, If I want to add KDE to my already installed Ubuntu Hoary using apt, how many megs is it? | 05:31 |
| foodcoman | I did a fresh install this morning. | 05:31 |
| foodcoman | I had enough Junk in hoary thought it was wise to start fresh. | 05:32 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | Abdul_Mueid: a couple of hundred | 05:32 |
| foodcoman | Abdul_Mueid: I havent a clue, but fairly large. | 05:32 |
| othomas | Abdul: I don't know, but I am a KDE fan sp it's worth it | 05:32 |
| Abdul_Mueid | ~500? | 05:32 |
| Abdul_Mueid | or less? | 05:32 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | less. much less | 05:33 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | ~200 | 05:33 |
| Abdul_Mueid | ohk... | 05:33 |
| Abdul_Mueid | I am living in Africa and my bandwidth is very limited :( | 05:33 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | some will not be happy . just so you know | 05:36 |
| Abdul_Mueid | Can I install KDE packages over Ubuntu Hoary with Kubuntu CD? | 05:37 |
| Abdul_Mueid | so I dont download | 05:37 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i *expect* so. | 05:37 |
| othomas | i installed KDE onto hoary..works fine | 05:38 |
| Abdul_Mueid | so, if I add the Kubuntu CD to synaptic sources and apt it, technically it should work, right? | 05:38 |

| othomas | hi HeadF1 | 05:49 |
| Head_Fi | I like to ask you a few questions | 05:49 |
| foodcoman | Op: I noticed I could paste from klipper (Screenshots) directly into Kontact with a filename, but not Tbird. | 05:49 |
| op | sweet thanks also i used this nice little script to mount my ntfs harddrives but they are all read only is there a way i can change that so i can keep adding stuff to them | 05:49 |
| op | as you can see i am completly new at this | 05:49 |
| === foodcoman is a newbie also. | ||
| thoreauputic | op: ntfs is read only in linuxthank the folks at MS for keeping specs secret) | 05:50 |
| op | dammit so is there a way i can convert them to somthing else? | 05:50 |
| foodcoman | I saw on Slash.... a company has a R/W product now that works well. | 05:50 |
| foodcoman | $$$$ | 05:50 |
| Head_Fi | well anybody willing to answer a couple of questions about powernowd and cpufreq modules? | 05:50 |
| Head_Fi | plz | 05:50 |
| thoreauputic | op: there is an experimental thing called "captive" for writing to ntfs, but risky | 05:51 |
| op | mmmm don't like those odds i have like 200 gigs of stuff on here and 100gigs left i dont want to loose that | 05:51 |
| thoreauputic | op: most people make a shared partition with vfat to share stuff with windows XP etc | 05:51 |
| othomas | Head_F1: sorry not real familiar with those modules | 05:52 |
| op | okay | 05:52 |
| Head_Fi | ok | 05:52 |
| Head_Fi | its just that Id like to run a different daemon than powernowd | 05:52 |
| Head_Fi | because Id just want my laptop to run at the lowest freq available when on battery | 05:52 |
| Head_Fi | not dynamic | 05:53 |
| othomas | oic what you want..but can't help there | 05:53 |
| Head_Fi | ok | 05:53 |
| Head_Fi | anyone here knows about this subject? | 05:54 |
| foodcoman | NTFS for Linux from Paragon. | 05:54 |
| othomas | F1: did you check the laptops settup? Does it offer power conserve settings? | 05:54 |
| foodcoman | Correction the article about the NTFS for Linux was from Eweek! | 05:54 |
| Head_Fi | well the issue is with the powernowd daemon | 05:54 |
| othomas | ok | 05:55 |
| Head_Fi | if its running just theres no way u can avoid it switching to a higher freq | 05:55 |
| Head_Fi | because it does it automatically | 05:55 |
| Head_Fi | I could use another daemon | 05:55 |
| Head_Fi | but the problem is that in ubuntu powernowd is the default and it has some scripts that load the kernel modules necessary to run any other daemons | 05:55 |
| Head_Fi | know what I mean? | 05:56 |
| foodcoman | http://www.ntfs-linux.com/ Not Open Source. | 05:56 |
| othomas | i get it..you might do a search and see if someone has fixed that | 05:56 |
| Head_Fi | so if I disable powernowd these modules arent loaded | 05:56 |
| Head_Fi | well Ive been doing that on ubuntuforums, google and such | 05:56 |
| Head_Fi | but just everybody seems to like the dynamic frequency scaling | 05:56 |
| othomas | Fi: <smile> ur the one in the crowd eh? | 05:57 |
| Head_Fi | hehe looks like so | 05:57 |
| Head_Fi | the thing is that there are ubuntu packages with the other daemons | 05:57 |
| Head_Fi | but I dont know if they include also their own scripts to load the neccesary modules | 05:58 |

| nikkia | was the day the G5 was released, and macosrumors had their irc up and running, 1200+ people in one channel | 06:10 |
| laszlok | how do you stop kde from opening media:/hdc when a cd is inserted? | 06:10 |
| othomas | whoa!! | 06:10 |
| foodcoman | Wow, much lag? | 06:10 |
| nikkia | foodcoman: lots of it | 06:10 |
| foodcoman | Hrmm rumors = popularity............. | 06:11 |
| othomas | laszlok: no idea, let me know when you have an answer | 06:11 |
| nikkia | foodcoman: i think by the time the announcements were made, it was lagging by about 5 minutes :) | 06:11 |
| nikkia | the worst LAG i've seen, however, dates back to the days when ircd's didn't do active ping/pong checks | 06:11 |
| foodcoman | Did you guys hear whats up with foodcoman?????? | 06:11 |
| nikkia | and you could get disconnected, and not timeout for ages, some days, back then, you'd see people lag by 3-4 hours | 06:11 |
| othomas | :othomas hates lag | 06:12 |
| nikkia | it didn't help, ofc ourse, that some people were on irc with really poor connections, 9600 baud and so on | 06:12 |
| foodcoman | Im an former EFnet boy... Left it behind, had nice bouncers, and little lag back in the day.... Avoid like the plague now. | 06:13 |
| othomas | heck i went years at 1200 baud cuz phone lines wouldn't do 2400 | 06:13 |
| nikkia | foodcoman: yeah, this was efnet, but efnet in the old days before the (first) split of the net | 06:13 |
| nikkia | ie, 1993ish | 06:13 |
| othomas | heck nikkia: you must know about bbs's..lol | 06:14 |
| foodcoman | I was in around 98 - 01 | 06:14 |
| nikkia | foodcoman: that was after the first round of efnet splits, i think | 06:14 |

| foodcoman | Anyone here go back far enough to play on a TRS-80 Model 1 with Cassette Tape and 300 baud? | 06:17 |
| othomas | yep | 06:17 |

| === virgilio [n=virgilio@host70-245.pool212171.interbusiness.it] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | foodcoman: 'update' updates the packages available list, 'upgrade' upgrades the packages you have that have newer versions (unless the distribution is marked as different, which is where 'dist-upgrade' comes in) | 06:24 |
| othomas | _rob: ohh ok..can't help you then..sorry | 06:24 |
| foodcoman | nikkia: Gotcha! | 06:25 |
| _root | does anyone know what I can do to set depth to 24 bit again ? | 06:26 |
| Head_Fi | thanks for the help anyway fellas | 06:26 |
| Head_Fi | bye | 06:26 |
| _root | I've already commented all lines out but the mode w/ 24 bit | 06:27 |

| nikkia | root, are you sure your video chipset supports 24bit ? | 06:32 |
| nikkia | out of 24 and 32 bit options, some only support one or the other | 06:32 |
| _root | yes | 06:33 |
| _root | before the update all worked fine | 06:33 |
| nikkia | try 32bit anyway | 06:33 |
| _root | and | 06:33 |
| nikkia | it might be the driver changed in the latest Xorg update | 06:33 |
| _root | and this is what i tried before ... | 06:33 |
| nikkia | failing that, check you're using the right driver in Xorg | 06:33 |
| === rakel [n=rakel@82.158.95.159] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| _root | it's not working in 32 bit either | 06:34 |
| nikkia | the update may have rolled you back to the vesa driver, for example | 06:34 |
| _root | where can I check this ? | 06:34 |
| nikkia | and the vesa code in recent video cards is often 'the bare minimum needed for old DOS games' | 06:34 |
| nikkia | _root, /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:34 |
| _root | I'm using a laptop (HP) with S3 Savage ... | 06:34 |
| nikkia | oh dear | 06:34 |
| === rakel is now known as foca | ||
| _root | well, it's working fine in windows and before the update in KDE ;) | 06:35 |
| nikkia | my laptop has a S3 savage too, lousy drivers | 06:35 |
| foodcoman | nikkia: That is the very game as best I can remember it. 7th or 8th grade, so thats 26-27 years ago... Ugh! talk about memory pain. | 06:35 |
| _root | 3D support is missing but not necessary | 06:35 |
| nikkia | foodcoman: yeah, that game is ancient, i suspect it was ported from a PDP version at that :) | 06:35 |
| _root | I just want to have support for 24 bit (or 32 bit) again :) ;) | 06:35 |
| othomas | nikkia: yep it was on a PDP-11 | 06:36 |
| foodcoman | Yeah I dont know if the old CPM's had it, but I had all the fun on a Z-80! =) | 06:36 |
| nikkia | othomas: and i wouldn't be surprised if THAT was ported from a -8 :) | 06:36 |
| othomas | lol nikkia | 06:36 |
| _root | VIA Technologies VT8605 ProSavage PM133 | 06:36 |
| _root | Driver = savage | 06:36 |
| nikkia | othomas: istr that trek dates back to 1970 or so | 06:36 |
| othomas | it was around in email in 1968 | 06:37 |
| _root | Default depth is also set to 24 | 06:37 |
| nikkia | yep, it was on a -8 originally | 06:38 |
| nikkia | can't find a date for it tho, but looks like mid 60s | 06:38 |
| _root | is it possibly to make all changes undone with apt-get ? | 06:39 |
| foodcoman | Thats a true Classic.. Make my heart leap for joy...Those were some fun times. | 06:39 |
| _root | so that I'd get the older packages | 06:39 |
| nikkia | well, i say 'originally' i bet if you dig deeper it goes back almost as far as the pdp-1, though its certainly not as old as spacewar :) | 06:39 |
| othomas | _root: i have done that; but; soemtimes the results are unexpected.. | 06:40 |
| _root | ok | 06:40 |
| _root | bad as now ;) | 06:40 |
| othomas | _root: that is due to the different version levels of the overall install | 06:41 |
| othomas | yes | 06:41 |
| _root | i think, I'm seeing all pictures with 16 bit now ... | 06:41 |
| nikkia | othomas: most technically impressive 'old' game i've seen, was a defender clone on our VMS cluster, that used regis for graphics :) | 06:41 |
| othomas | nikkia: we must be from the same generation...LOL | 06:41 |
| _root | so what can I do now to get more colors ? :( | 06:42 |
| nikkia | _root, buy a laptop with a decent video chipset :P | 06:42 |
| _root | everything worked so fine 'til Monday night | 06:42 |
| othomas | :cruel | 06:42 |
| _root | :P :D | 06:42 |
| nikkia | othomas: i have a S3 savage/IX, i know JUST how crappy it is | 06:42 |
| nikkia | othomas: no amount of tweaking is going to make it 'decent' :) | 06:43 |
| othomas | correct assesment | 06:43 |
| _root | well, but that's not changing the situation, that it worked before :D | 06:43 |
| === hussam [n=hussam@194.126.31.19] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| othomas | _root: have you done a lot of tweaking? | 06:43 |
| _root | nothing | 06:43 |
| foodcoman | Defender Arcade version took much money from me. | 06:43 |
| nikkia | _root, you could try and change it to vesa | 06:43 |
| _root | how do I do that ? | 06:44 |
| nikkia | i use my laptop with the vesa driver, as the savage driver causes screen corruption :) | 06:44 |
| othomas | _root: try reinstall and select the 32 bit option then | 06:44 |
| _root | sorry, but I'm very new to that (again) | 06:44 |
| nikkia | _root, change the 'savage' in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to 'vesa' | 06:44 |
| _root | last time I used Slackware 1.xxx :D | 06:44 |
| othomas | nikkia: good idea..:) | 06:44 |
| _root | many things have changed | 06:44 |
| nikkia | vesa is quite a bit slower tho | 06:45 |
| _root | that's all ? | 06:45 |
| nikkia | but then, the savage driver isn't much of a speed daemon either :) | 06:45 |
| hussam | can somebody check for me if http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com opens? | 06:45 |
| nikkia | _root, yes | 06:45 |
| hussam | in a browser windows | 06:45 |
| _root | cool :) | 06:45 |
| _root | done, it's working (directors listing) | 06:45 |
| _root | s = y | 06:45 |
| othomas | hussam: it opens to a directory | 06:46 |
| thoreauputic | hussam: opens here too | 06:46 |
| hussam | it times out here | 06:46 |
| nikkia | othomas: btw, when you said it was working in windows, what version? | 06:47 |
| othomas | it needs an index.html and then will have your page | 06:47 |
| _root | well, now I'm going to restart ... | 06:47 |
| nikkia | i've never been able to track down real XP drivers for my savage | 06:47 |
| _root | ehm | 06:47 |
| nikkia | (as when via bought S3, the first thing they did, was killed the drivers download page, and the last driver for the /IX i have was for 2k) | 06:47 |
| _root | In windows xp it's working with 32 bit @ 1024x768 (32 MB shared memory) | 06:47 |
| nikkia | _root, not an /IX then ? | 06:48 |
| othomas | say, how do you talk private to someone..I know it's in the man pages, but think one of you could tell me quicker | 06:48 |
| nikkia | othomas: /msg nickname message | 06:48 |
| _root | you should explain what I/X means :D | 06:48 |
| othomas | ty | 06:48 |
| nikkia | othomas: or /query nickname | 06:48 |
| nikkia | which will open a chat window to them (or some equivalent thereof if you're running a text mode client) | 06:49 |
| nikkia | _root: the 'S3 Savage' is a family of video chips | 06:49 |
| _root | ok | 06:49 |
| nikkia | there is a 'S3 Savage/IX' a 'S3 Savage/MX' etc | 06:49 |
| _root | ProSavage PM133 says lspci | 06:49 |
| nikkia | the /IX was the second savage released, i think (after the plain 'S3 Savage') | 06:50 |
| nikkia | ah, ProSavage is Via era S3 | 06:50 |
| _root | don't know more about that | 06:50 |
| nikkia | ie, somewhere after about 2000-2001 | 06:50 |
| _root | well, my laptop is ~ 2,5 y old | 06:50 |
| nikkia | in your case, its probably integrated into the Via PM133 chipset | 06:50 |

| _root | another stupid question: does vesa work with 32 bit, too ? | 06:56 |
| nikkia | _root, perhaps | 06:56 |
| _root | ok | 06:57 |
| nikkia | _root, depends on the vesa implementation in the video chip/card's rom | 06:57 |
| othomas | _root: and ur memory | 06:57 |
| _root | so I've to change DefaultDepth to 32 and to add another Subsection of Display with Depth 32 ? | 06:57 |
| nikkia | _root: bear in mind, tho, that 32bit will use a bit more ram, and be slower, because you're pretty much using software video routines completely with vesa | 06:57 |
| nikkia | (yes, i know, vesa accelerator architecture, but i don't think the S3 stuff supports it, so its not relevant :) | 06:58 |
| _root | well, 32 MB of memory will work fine I think - like Windows does ;) | 06:58 |
| nikkia | root, there is also, absolutely no difference in image quality | 06:58 |
| _root | yes, for sure | 06:58 |
| nikkia | as 24/32 just affects the byte packing in the frame buffer | 06:58 |
| _root | but I just want to test it | 06:58 |
| === nikkia nods | ||
| _root | the windows drivers only support 16 and 32 bit | 06:59 |
| othomas | we all nod and smile | 06:59 |
| _root | only the byte packing in the frame buffer ? | 06:59 |

| kingconfessor | i think maybe its the updates i've been downloading, because it was running fine until a few weeks ago when i dled some updates | 07:38 |
| kingconfessor | xp | 07:38 |
| kingconfessor | service pack 1 i think | 07:38 |

| foodcoman | The HAL in XP is not that poor. | 07:38 |

| Noriega | oh | 07:40 |
| kingconfessor | grub .95 + cvs20040624 | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do: | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | 1. They replicate quickly - okay, Windows does that. | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | 2. Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so - okay, Windows does that. | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | 3. Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk - okay, Windows does that too. | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | 4. Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems. Sigh... Windows does that, too. | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | 5. Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware. Yup, that's with Windows, too. | 07:41 |
| kingconfessor | i don't think thats the new grub | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences:Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature. So Windows is not a virus. It's a bug. | 07:41 |
| Noriega | but I can install it on its own, right? I don't need to install ubuntu first, then upgrade? | 07:41 |
| laser_tk | :P | 07:41 |
| foodcoman | Noriega: Yes | 07:42 |
| Noriega | at which part of the question? :) | 07:42 |
| foodcoman | Kubuntu = Ubuntu Core with KDE (Not Gnome) | 07:42 |
| kingconfessor | i don't think its a grub problem though, as it makes it past grub, but it fails as kubuntu is booting | 07:43 |
| foodcoman | You can run both if you choose however. | 07:43 |
| Noriega | aha | 07:43 |
| Noriega | but the difference between Gnome and KDE is mainly graphical, or? | 07:43 |
| foodcoman | Noriega: True | 07:43 |
| Noriega | I see | 07:43 |
| Noriega | thanks | 07:44 |
| kingconfessor | i'm thinking i should just wait for the new official release, and delete partition then install the new release | 07:44 |

| Noriega | ah, one more thing: if I have two hard drives, and I use one for Windows and one for Linux, can I gain access to the other hd's files? | 07:47 |
| foodcoman | So I guess from scratch. Got important stuff from ~ | 07:47 |
| Chousuke | Noriega: yes. | 07:48 |
| foodcoman | Noriega: what Windows file system?? | 07:48 |
| Noriega | because I read that Linux can read ntfs but not write | 07:48 |
| Noriega | or at least someone told me | 07:48 |
| kingconfessor | exactly | 07:48 |
| foodcoman | Fat32 R/W, NTFS Read only. | 07:48 |
| Noriega | ok | 07:48 |
| foodcoman | I am toooo slow. | 07:48 |
| Noriega | and then there are a whole bunch of unix-only file systems? | 07:48 |
| kingconfessor | so if you want to file swap, make sure you create a fat partition | 07:48 |
| foodcoman | Noriega: yes | 07:48 |

| foodcoman | If you create at Fat32 you can get to files from both OS's | 07:50 |
| kingconfessor | exactly | 07:50 |
| foodcoman | However install your linux to something else. Linux will mount many partions. | 07:50 |
| kingconfessor | thats what i do noriega | 07:50 |
| Noriega | but windows cannot read nor write the unix-only file systems? | 07:50 |
| kingconfessor | correct | 07:50 |
| Noriega | ok | 07:50 |
| Noriega | I'm thinking of a dual boot, just to learn some more on how linux works | 07:51 |
| kingconfessor | thats what i do | 07:51 |
| Noriega | but I couldn't remove windows because the rest of the family need it ;) | 07:51 |
| Noriega | aha, so you have 2 partitions? | 07:51 |
| kingconfessor | i use linux as much as i can, and then when i have to i switch back to windows | 07:51 |
| foodcoman | Same here Noriega | 07:51 |
| Noriega | hehe | 07:51 |
| kingconfessor | i have numerous partitions | 07:51 |
| kingconfessor | several ntfs partitions | 07:51 |
| kingconfessor | a fat32 | 07:51 |
| Noriega | ok | 07:52 |
| kingconfessor | and then my linux and swap | 07:52 |
| foodcoman | Noriega: Backup | 07:52 |
| Noriega | backup? | 07:52 |
| foodcoman | Its not important till its gone! | 07:52 |
| kingconfessor | exactly | 07:52 |
| Noriega | hehe | 07:52 |
| kingconfessor | if you care about anything you have, back it up before you play around | 07:52 |
| Noriega | if I have one physical hd with data on it, do I need to format before I make a partition? | 07:53 |
| kingconfessor | well you very helpful people, thanks for all assistance, i gotta get back to the books | 07:54 |
| foodcoman | Reason, not necessarily the software install, but also human error. when you start seeing HDA1 HDA2 and Blah blah, it can get confusing. | 07:54 |
| kingconfessor | noriega, linux can resize your windows partition, to make room for itself, so you don't have to neccisarily format | 07:55 |
| === foodcoman sees a new record for himself, 105 nicks ->> 104. | ||

| johlin | updated the list? added universe respository? | 08:45 |
| othomas | if you dl it from sun, you get a bin file..then make it executable and then type ./java***.bin and it installs, you need to be root when you do this | 08:46 |
| laszlok | does anyone have the newest firefox installed from apt-get? | 08:47 |
| othomas | i have 1.06 | 08:48 |
| johlin | I have it too | 08:48 |
| johlin | anyone knows what qt to install to make firefox look good, as it does in gnome? | 08:48 |
| === mendred [n=mendred@59.92.38.228] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| libben | made this step, download the .bin file from java.sun.com, sudo apt-get install java-package, chmod +x [the .bin file] , fakeroot make-jpkg [the bin file] , sudo dpkg -i [the generated .deb file] | 08:49 |
| othomas | gnome?.. lol | 08:49 |
| johlin | yes? | 08:49 |
| othomas | it looks the same in gnome or kde to me | 08:50 |
| johlin | ok, could you please look in kynaptic, use the find-thing, type qt and tell me what qt-packages you have? | 08:50 |
| johlin | that would be nice | 08:50 |

| laszlok | you can install it in your home or in /usr/ | 08:54 |
| laszlok | if you want it to be recognized as installed, you have to change /usr/bin/java to point to the new jre | 08:54 |

| libben | hmm... i get some errors in the beggining when im doing the deb file from a bin file. can be that... anyone has a good deb file? | 09:21 |
| othomas | forget that..just do the make executable and then do the ./<filename> thing | 09:22 |
| libben | well, problem is i dont know that step =) | 09:23 |
