| nxv_ | if u search for a package and install the packages with lib and dev in it's name u mostly have all u need | 12:02 |
| Aapzak | I use Gentoo and I wonder if the fact that almost every build Gentoo system might be different is seen as a major drawback | 12:03 |
| nxv_ | afaik if u installe one dev package all dev packages needed for this one will install too | 12:03 |

| Aapzak | Aren't KDE and Suse both German? | 12:04 |
| nxv_ | suse is german | 12:04 |
| nxv_ | and bought by novel quite a time ago | 12:04 |
| aseigo | Aapzak: no | 12:04 |
| aseigo | Aapzak: kde started in germany but there are a lot of non-Germans involved. most, in fact | 12:05 |
| aseigo | Aapzak: SUSE is a german company, though. owned by the american company novell these days now | 12:05 |
| Aapzak | so they're both not really german anymore :) | 12:06 |
| nxv_ | playing its part in united linux | 12:06 |
| nxv_ | suse is still a german distributor | 12:06 |
| Aapzak | but owned by an American company | 12:06 |
| Aapzak | hmmz, maybe I should let it go :) | 12:07 |

| Aapzak | and my question ... is there one distro which is most suitable for development | 12:09 |
| nxv_ | cant see any benefit for any linux distribution when developing kde | 12:10 |
| nxv_ | Aapzak: i would suggest kubuntu, ubuntu, as a lot works out of the box | 12:10 |
| Aapzak | well, I can see drawbacks for certain systems | 12:10 |
| nxv_ | u don't have to spend a lot of time configuring the system if u just want to code | 12:10 |
| Aapzak | true | 12:11 |
| HydroYarrGen | but, coders usually end up tweaking their system, and editors, and all that, till its just right for them | 12:11 |
| nxv_ | and as it is debian based it is close to standard and u have a large packagedirectory and most of help in the inet works with ur distri | 12:11 |
| _blake | Ok, I have been trying to get my kubuntu machine to play dvd's but am having different problems using different players... okle shuts down when i click 'open disc' any suggestions? | 12:11 |
| Aapzak | I like Debian over (k)ubuntu | 12:11 |
| _blake | is anyone succesfully playing dvds on their kubuntu or ubuntu machine with a different app.? | 12:12 |
| nxv_ | suse imo is closer to windows, as more is hidden from the user and tweaking is no fun as suse has its own way of configs | 12:12 |
| nxv_ | my experience about 3 years from now | 12:12 |
| nxv_ | gentoo has the bigest source tree but spending so much time on compiling made me come back to debian | 12:12 |
| nxv_ | and so try kubuntu | 12:13 |
| nxv_ | just my experience if it might help u | 12:13 |
| Aapzak | I use Gentoo | 12:13 |
| Aapzak | I love it | 12:13 |
| Aapzak | :) | 12:13 |
| nxv_ | i bought an centrino to hear no more of my pc | 12:13 |
| nxv_ | but gentoo compiling :) | 12:13 |
| nxv_ | ... | 12:13 |
| Aapzak | but ... the system changes day by day, I can't believe thats a good developement environment | 12:13 |
| Aapzak | the tools are great though | 12:14 |
| nxv_ | i bet on kubuntu now as i don't believe debian will have shorter realesetimes | 12:14 |
| nxv_ | and i don't want to consider my self with stepping between unstable and stable | 12:14 |
| Aapzak | they tweaked too much I think | 12:14 |
| nxv_ | a realese every 6 month is fine for me | 12:14 |
| Aapzak | it is | 12:14 |
| Aapzak | but if you want to play mp3's you'll end up adding other repositories | 12:15 |

| nxv_ | of course if u want ur beloving up, might be u need to add an repositories | 12:16 |
| Aapzak | yeah | 12:17 |
| nxv_ | but afaik gentoo has the bigest source tree but other distributions apart from debian base have a even smaller package tree | 12:17 |
| Aapzak | well, I like Debian-based distros, but love Debian and Gentoo :) | 12:17 |
| nxv_ | so why du u want to change to another linux system? | 12:17 |
| Aapzak | I don't | 12:17 |
| nxv_ | ok | 12:18 |
| Aapzak | I want to understand the need for a stable which does not change that often | 12:18 |
| nxv_ | which do u mean? ubuntu or debian? | 12:18 |

| Aapzak | nxv_: at work I run in all sorts of incompatibility trouble, mostly bash and perl stuff, but it made me think | 12:20 |
| nxv_ | debian wants to be more stable and has that reason for waiting soo long with releases | 12:20 |
| nxv_ | and another thought would be | 12:20 |
| Aapzak | yeah, today it's allright, but how many years till the next release :) | 12:20 |

| nxv_ | i cant believe it doesn't work | 12:25 |

| wellso | did you have to map them up to the TCP/IP equiv.? | 01:01 |
| nikkia | wellso, NSF ran a JANet->internet gateway box that connected you to a real hostname-specified-host once you CPAD'ed to its address | 01:01 |
| nikkia | wellso, no, you memorized the numbers of the handful of sites you used, then used one to access NSF's CPAD interface, which gave you a telnet prompt | 01:02 |

| lwells | hi all | 01:17 |
| ManLord | Is there a way to make the headphones volume be "included" into master volume? | 01:17 |
| lwells | how can i reformat a second harddrive | 01:17 |
| lwells | the second harddrive is ntf | 01:18 |
| === jsubl2 [n=jsubl2@72.48.95.220] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| lwells | kubuntu , cannot see the second drive | 01:19 |
| delltony | lwells, you should be able to fdisk the drive to partition it (i.e. fdisk /dev/hdb ) | 01:24 |
| delltony | once partitioned then mke2fs -cv /dev/hdb | 01:24 |
| lwells | so from terminal , i should be able to do this? | 01:25 |
| delltony | yeah | 01:25 |
| delltony | and kubuntu CAN see your ntfs drive | 01:25 |
| delltony | but it CAN'T write to it | 01:25 |

| lwells | it can? | 01:25 |
| delltony | do you know anything about your system? | 01:25 |
| delltony | in terms of how many drives you have? | 01:25 |
| lwells | i have two drives | 01:26 |
| delltony | ok | 01:26 |
| delltony | the one your on is hda more than likely | 01:26 |
| lwells | it was a window machine | 01:26 |
| delltony | do a ls /dev/hd* | 01:26 |
| delltony | and look and see what drives you have there | 01:26 |
| delltony | are they ide drives or scsii? | 01:26 |
| delltony | scsii are sda iirc | 01:27 |
| delltony | generally your boot drive is /dev/hda your cdrom is /dev/hdc | 01:27 |
| delltony | and then other drives are /dev/hdd and so on | 01:27 |
| lwells | shows hda, hdc, hdc1, hdc2, hdc5 and hdd | 01:27 |
| === pussfeller [n=todd@12.150.129.171] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| delltony | more than likely its hdc then | 01:28 |
| delltony | cause a cdrom wouldn't have multiple partitions | 01:28 |
| lwells | hdc is the second drive? | 01:28 |
| delltony | thats my guess | 01:28 |
| delltony | you can fdisk it and see | 01:28 |
| lwells | said it was unable to open it | 01:29 |
| delltony | type the following | 01:29 |
| lwells | ok | 01:29 |
| delltony | sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc | 01:29 |
| delltony | it will list the partition table look to see if its ntfs | 01:29 |
| delltony | any luck? | 01:30 |

| delltony | do the same thing for /dev/hda | 01:33 |
| lwells | ok | 01:33 |
| lwells | nothing, maybe that is the floppy | 01:33 |
| lwells | it might be hdc1 then | 01:34 |
| delltony | no floppies are fd | 01:34 |
| lwells | found it, it is the hdd drive | 01:34 |
| delltony | ok | 01:34 |
| delltony | now | 01:34 |
| delltony | do the following | 01:34 |

| delltony | you can only read to it | 01:37 |
| delltony | to* from | 01:37 |

| delltony | you can not write to an ntfs drive in linux | 01:38 |
| delltony | as in store data on it | 01:38 |
| delltony | you can only read from it | 01:38 |
| lwells | oh, i want to store to it | 01:38 |
| delltony | then you need to format it | 01:39 |
| lwells | so just fdisk it? | 01:39 |
| delltony | yeah | 01:39 |
| delltony | that will partition it | 01:39 |
| delltony | then after you partition it then format it with mke2fs | 01:39 |

| delltony | basically in a nutshell you want to delete the old partition | 01:44 |
| lwells | it has a list of command options | 01:44 |
| delltony | and maeke a new one | 01:44 |
| delltony | much like you do in windows | 01:44 |
| lwells | oh ok, there is a "delete a partition" option | 01:44 |
| delltony | yeah | 01:44 |
| delltony | delete it and make a new one | 01:45 |
| nikkia | cfdisk is easier :) | 01:45 |
| delltony | thats true too | 01:45 |
| delltony | use cfdisk | 01:45 |
| lwells | ok | 01:45 |
| delltony | forgot about that thanks | 01:45 |
| mike23 | greetings | 01:45 |
| delltony | whats up mike | 01:45 |
| mike23 | I've got the new kuntu | 01:46 |
| kalenedrael | I figured out a really random way to back up stuff to DVD while running on a liveCD. | 01:46 |
| mike23 | give me a k-------u---- | 01:46 |
| kalenedrael | See, I have one of those combo drives. | 01:46 |
| lwells | should it be a logical partition? | 01:46 |
| lwells | or a primary partition | 01:46 |
| mike23 | I want to add an excutable my edutainment math tab how do I do that? | 01:47 |
| kalenedrael | It should likely be a primary partition. | 01:47 |
| kalenedrael | mike23, look in the menu for a menu editor. | 01:47 |
| kalenedrael | Er, wait, tab? | 01:47 |
| delltony | make logical lwells | 01:47 |
| mike23 | I can run octave from the command line bash I'd like to execute from a tab | 01:47 |
| kalenedrael | Ok, ignore what I said. :P | 01:47 |
| mike23 | thanks | 01:48 |
| kalenedrael | mike23, ok. I forget what the program is called, but it should be labeled as 'Menu Editor' or something obvious like that. | 01:48 |
| lwells | should it be bootable? | 01:48 |
| delltony | no | 01:48 |
| delltony | you don't want to boot from that drive do you | 01:48 |
| delltony | your just wantinig to store data on it | 01:48 |
| lwells | the options are , bootable, delete, help, maximize, print, write | 01:49 |
| delltony | maximize the partition | 01:49 |
| lwells | and then write? | 01:49 |

| delltony | ok so fdisk is done? | 01:51 |
| lwells | yes, think so | 01:51 |
| delltony | now mke2fs /dev/hdd | 01:52 |

| delltony | sudo mke2fs -cv /dev/hdd | 01:52 |
| lwells | ok done | 01:53 |
| delltony | now | 01:53 |
| delltony | we can mount it to that mount point of ntfsdrive we made | 01:54 |
| delltony | if youw ant | 01:54 |
| delltony | but anyway | 01:54 |
| lwells | how about hd2 | 01:55 |

| delltony | mount -t ext2 /dev/hdd /media/hd2 | 01:55 |
| delltony | dn't forget to sudo | 01:55 |
| lwells | ok | 01:56 |
| lwells | done | 01:56 |
| delltony | then you can add it to the fstab to mount it on boot | 01:56 |
| delltony | sudo nano /ect/fstab | 01:57 |
| lwells | ok | 01:57 |
| delltony | and add /dev/hdd /media/hd2 ext2 auto 0 0 | 01:57 |
| delltony | that should do the trick someone correct me if i'm wrong | 01:58 |
| lwells | how do i add | 01:58 |

| delltony | i repeat | 02:00 |
| lwells | yes | 02:00 |
| delltony | go to the bottom of that list | 02:00 |

| Fiyawerx | ok | 03:49 |

| othomas | you should read up a bit on the filesystem before you edit those | 05:35 |

| othomas | meanwhile write down the commands..it won't take long before you understand what fstab is saying | 05:35 |

| Bicchi | firefox is not displaying the fonts correctly | 07:01 |
| Bicchi | like the fonts are small and some other things are really big | 07:01 |
| Bicchi | not sure why i haven't mess with it | 07:01 |
| Bicchi | i was setting up a dual monitor systems and now that i got that working firefox is not displaying things right | 07:02 |
| Bicchi | any help? | 07:02 |
| godzero | um, I think kde's fonts are bigger, so the firefox fonts look smaller (no joke) | 07:02 |
| othomas | go into edit-prefs-fonts and set them to be static | 07:02 |
| othomas | in other words don't use the pages fonts | 07:02 |
| godzero | I'm at 1400x1050 and all the kde fonts are huge | 07:03 |
| Bicchi | static ? i do not see that | 07:03 |
| Bicchi | you mean allways use my fonts? | 07:03 |
| othomas | i am at 1240 and fires defaults are tiny | 07:03 |
| othomas | yup | 07:03 |
| Bicchi | that didn't do anything | 07:04 |
| othomas | you can also change the font by hitting CTRL-+ or CTRL-minus in firefox | 07:05 |

| Phily | I'm at 640x400 and everything is huge | 07:05 |
| othomas | have to restart to see the effect | 07:05 |
| godzero | there's a firefox plugin I used to love, it puts "A+ a- a=" icons on the toolbar for font zooming | 07:05 |
| Bicchi | no i fixed it | 07:06 |
| Phily | The trash takes a quarter of my screen (green monochrome) | 07:06 |
| othomas | heh phily..I hate when that happens | 07:06 |
| Bicchi | othomas: it was the display resolution inside firefox | 07:06 |
| othomas | <smile> cool bicchy | 07:06 |
| Bicchi | godzero: i finally got dual head working | 07:06 |
| godzero | Phily: so you got rid of your old CGA card? | 07:06 |
| othomas | oops bicchi too..sorry | 07:07 |
| Phily | godzero: I finally got some money and put an 80 character card in my Apple II e | 07:07 |
| godzero | Bicchi: I gathered that... great... post you xorg.conf somewhere | 07:07 |

| lwells | HI all | 07:08 |
| othomas | hi lwells | 07:08 |
| Phily | godzero: These have a high street price especially since the card can only be found at auction houses | 07:08 |
| godzero | Phily: So you're not using that vic=20 anymore? You're so bleeding edge | 07:08 |
| lwells | How can i find out about the cron jobs | 07:08 |
| Bicchi | godzero: i am going to clean it up a little then i am going to post it on the ubuntuforums for others too see including the video card info and all the shit | 07:08 |
| godzero | bicchi: great | 07:09 |
| nalioth | <gasp> what language! i never! heh | 07:09 |
| godzero | Phily: serious 'bout the Apple 2 card? | 07:09 |
| Phily | godzero: Its got a fill rate of 3/4 pixel a second using opengl (software( | 07:09 |
| Phily | godzero: what about the apple 2 r card | 07:10 |
| godzero | that 80 char card.. guess you were joking | 07:11 |
| lwells | what are the commands to run the cron jobs | 07:11 |
| godzero | Iwells: cron | 07:11 |
| othomas | cron as root | 07:12 |
| Phily | godzero: nope in the old days if you apple ii e had 40 char wide screen to get 80 (for text processing) you had to buy an Addison card | 07:12 |
| othomas | except if it's running you get a "file in use" error | 07:12 |
| Phily | oops add-on card | 07:12 |
| lwells | what about anacron | 07:12 |
| godzero | the iic had em built in | 07:12 |
| godzero | Phily: I remeber the apple ] [ series pretty well, but I was a c=64 guy | 07:13 |
| godzero | I'm an old fart (35) | 07:14 |
| Phily | godzero: I too had C64 also an Amiga A500 which still works | 07:14 |
| godzero | my 2 amy500s died :( | 07:14 |
| Phily | godzero: I just turned 30 | 07:14 |
| godzero | loved the amiga... friggen sweet machine | 07:15 |
| Phily | godzero: Amiga's where way ahead of their time | 07:16 |
| godzero | when commodore died, there was nowhere to go, pcs sucked hard, apples couldn't multitask propper... wasn't till linux we had something to be proud of again | 07:17 |

| lwells | just run them i suppose | 07:25 |
| lwells | i turn my laptop off at night | 07:25 |
| lwells | they run in the middle of night right? | 07:25 |
| godzero | ya | 07:26 |

| lwells | i was so frustrated with windows | 07:28 |
| godzero | 100% agree | 07:28 |
| lwells | do you recommend any good books? | 07:28 |
| godzero | linux gives you somuch to do | 07:28 |
| godzero | not off the top of my head | 07:28 |

| lwells | hi again, i tried it , nothing | 07:41 |
| godzero | hey | 07:41 |
| godzero | kcron | 07:41 |
| lwells | yep, that is what i used | 07:41 |
| godzero | "init 0" | 07:42 |
| lwells | on the program like i used poweroff | 07:42 |
| lwells | on the program line i put "init 0"? | 07:43 |
| godzero | poweroff should work, but if not init 0 should work | 07:43 |
| godzero | yes | 07:43 |
| lwells | k, put that, should turn off in 2 min | 07:43 |
| lwells | when do the normal cron jobs run anyway | 07:44 |
| godzero | init 0=off, 1=recovery, 3=commandline, 5=norma turn on, 6=reboot | 07:44 |
| godzero | depends on how they're set | 07:45 |
| godzero | most nightly | 07:45 |
| lwells | huh, did not turn the computer off | 07:45 |
| godzero | run as root | 07:46 |
| lwells | so, i should put sudo init 0? | 07:46 |
| godzero | no, sudo kcron | 07:46 |
| lwells | oh run the program under root | 07:47 |
| godzero | yes | 07:47 |
| godzero | then the init 0 will run as root | 07:47 |
| === wincide [n=trax@81.37.49.159] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| godzero | sudo init 0 would countdown, then ask for password | 07:48 |
| lwells | does it matter what catergory i put it in? | 07:48 |
| godzero | ? | 07:49 |
| lwells | when i run kcron as root it has many different jobs and catagories | 07:49 |
| godzero | oh | 07:49 |
| lwells | i guess it should be under the root section | 07:49 |
| === pc22 [n=arik@222.126.13.162] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| godzero | im launching it so i can see what you see | 07:50 |
| lwells | ok | 07:51 |
| godzero | um, where ever it looks good | 07:51 |
| lwells | did it, hopefully in 4 min it will shut down | 07:51 |
| lwells | i just now need to know when the maintenance programs run | 07:52 |
| godzero | most are at night, not sure about kubuntu | 07:53 |
| godzero | nothing you haveto worry about | 07:53 |
| lwells | just want to make sure the computer turns off after the normal cron jobs | 07:54 |
| godzero | looks like they run daily, not at a defined time | 07:54 |
| lwells | ok cool | 07:54 |
| lwells | this is just so fun | 07:55 |
| godzero | about that time? | 07:55 |
| lwells | huh still did not work, funny huh | 07:55 |

| godzero | oh, you set minutes? | 07:57 |
| lwells | i did | 07:58 |
| lwells | i changed it again, used poweroff instead | 07:58 |
| godzero | that = 12:00 am +minutes | 07:58 |
| godzero | not what you want | 07:58 |
| lwells | why | 07:58 |
| godzero | check "run every day", then in hours pick one, then in minutes, pick one... it will shut down at that time | 08:00 |
| lwells | i did | 08:00 |
| godzero | it isn't a relative setting | 08:00 |
| lwells | and used poweroff as the program | 08:00 |
| lwells | did not work anyway | 08:01 |
| godzero | did you set the "run as root" at the top? | 08:01 |
| lwells | at the top of kcron? | 08:02 |

| godzero | put root in the box | 08:02 |

| godzero | hi | 08:05 |
| godzero | or program: [poweroff] | 08:05 |
| lwells | ok, i will do that one | 08:05 |
| lwells | ok, now in 4 min, lets see again | 08:06 |
| godzero | k | 08:06 |
| === godzero crosses fingers | ||
| lwells | you cant set anything to turn the computer on in the morning? | 08:06 |
| godzero | hrm... no, the OS isn't booted | 08:08 |
| lwells | that is kind of what i figured | 08:08 |
| godzero | I can think of ways to do it | 08:08 |
| lwells | i saw something about a way a mac can do htat, but not sure here | 08:08 |
| godzero | but it involves another pc, and a network | 08:08 |
| lwells | yea that makes sense | 08:09 |

| BlankB | On the machine with the printer. You will use the Printing manager. From there you can do Print Server->Configure Server | 01:00 |
| BlankB | you want to make sure that under security that you allow machines to connect from your network. | 01:01 |

| Chambers` | so what else do I do? I don't know what these volume buttons are (it just has volume on the key) not really sure what button combinations they do when pressed | 03:07 |
| MrFaber | Ok, Chambers, found it? | 03:07 |
| Chambers` | maybe | 03:07 |
| MrFaber | you have to choose your keyboard modell | 03:08 |

| MrFaber | it works with my Inspiron Laptop | 03:08 |

| apokryphos | burepe: backports is a repository; you disable it by commenting it out in /etc/apt/sources.list. Just put a # in front of them | 03:32 |
| burepe | I mean how is it different from a normal repository? What is its function? | 03:33 |

| apokryphos | burepe: aptitude is just another front-end to apt; like apt-get, but with a few differences. You can use whichever you like, really. | 03:44 |
| apokryphos | it's "crashing"? | 03:44 |

| godzero | yes: the streamer has to read the metadata to know how fast to streem | 07:53 |

| godzero | icecast is good for a webinterface, but vls would work too, one as server, one as client | 08:02 |
| godzero | vlc | 08:02 |
| DaSkreech | BlankB: Well if I could have both that would be very cool :-) | 08:04 |
| BlankB | godzero: couldnt you just make a .pls on the server that just has a link to the .ogg file. Then the player would stream and play it from the server. | 08:04 |
| DaSkreech | Thats not really an option when you have a whole lotta music | 08:05 |
| BlankB | why not... just write a php script that generates .pls files dynamically. Or if the server is local just share it across a samba share. | 08:06 |

| apokryphos | no crapload of dependencies | 09:38 |
| apokryphos | I guess you can't apt for it if you're on hoary | 09:39 |

| DaSkreech | _michael: Theora is a open source Video Codec so if someone is posting files Email them and ask them to support Theora :) | 10:04 |
