libben | ive heard that sudo's caching the password when its given? is this true? and can it be looked at? | 12:20 |
apokryphos | Pyf: a pretty way to view man pages, in Konqueror: #command or man:command | 12:20 |
nikkia | libben: that's how sudo is supposed to work, you can turn it off | 12:20 |
apokryphos | libben: default is 15mins | 12:21 |

Pyf | i man chmod in terminal | 12:38 |
apokryphos | Pyf: as I said, if you like, there's a prettier (and probably better viewable) way to view them. You can man:command, or #command. In this case: man:chmod (in Konqueror). | 12:39 |

Pyf | what does recursive mean? | 12:45 |
Pyf | as a word i mean | 12:45 |
apokryphos | !dict recursive | 12:46 |
apokryphos | gah; useless bot. | 12:46 |
Pyf | 1. An expression, such as a polynomial, each term of which is determined by application of a formula to preceding terms. | 12:46 |
Pyf | 2. A formula that generates the successive terms of a recursion. | 12:46 |
apokryphos | Pyf: it does what you want, basically :). | 12:46 |
apokryphos | if you recursively apply a change on X, it will apply it to X, and all its subfolders | 12:47 |
apokryphos | that's what you're doing when you rm -r <somefolder> | 12:47 |

op | oh so how do i make this drive have read write access in linux? | 03:07 |
SbCl3 | i don't think linux can read/write to ntfs | 03:07 |
SbCl3 | only read | 03:07 |
musashiden | can anyone help me out? | 03:07 |
phil__ | SbCl3: if the ntfs file system is not encrypted it is possible to read and write with linux but it is not safe (yet) TO WRITE | 03:08 |
sproingie | linux can write ntfs, but only to change the content of an existing file | 03:08 |
sproingie | it can't create, delete, do anything with attributes, or work with small files that are in the mft | 03:08 |
phil__ | musashiden: you have to install qr developpement | 03:08 |
SbCl3 | and the file has to be bigger | 03:08 |
musashiden | phil_: whats that? | 03:09 |
SbCl3 | er, nevermind | 03:09 |

dooglio | Fyawerx: i was going to ask | 03:35 |
dooglio | synaptic is pretty cool | 03:35 |
Fyawerx | plus at least for me when i did the install for adept it removed most of the other managers | 03:35 |
fatejudger | synaptic is better with the industrial GTK theme | 03:36 |
fatejudger | kynaptic and synaptic are basically the same | 03:36 |
Fyawerx | synaptic was faster on searches for me too | 03:36 |
fatejudger | give me a break | 03:36 |
fatejudger | kynaptic is just dynamic | 03:36 |
Fyawerx | i mean as opposted to adept, sorry | 03:36 |
fatejudger | so it may take more processing power | 03:36 |
fatejudger | oh | 03:36 |
Fyawerx | i did a ubuntu install then added kdesktop, so i still mix and match apps when in kde, i use the regular synaptic lol | 03:37 |

slackbob | the packages that is | 03:51 |
Tonio- | Uhad that problem switching from fedora to ubuntu | 03:51 |
Tonio- | well you can built from source with apt, like you can do with gentoo | 03:52 |
Tonio- | but if you are a fan of ompilation, I would suggest gentoo in the first place instead of ubuntu | 03:52 |
slackbob | but that still means im using the central repository. i compile to get the latest stuff | 03:52 |
slackbob | gento (when i used it) had a number of outdated packages | 03:53 |
phil__ | slackbob: If you like to install your linux distro in 3 days go for GENTOO! | 03:53 |
slackbob | it took me 3.5 ^_^ | 03:53 |
Tonio- | you can compile from the authors tarball if you like, but well, you would use all the advantages of apt, so I don't see the point using ubuntu..... | 03:53 |
godzero | I thought the point of gentoo was th epackages were 4.5 seconds old | 03:54 |
Tonio- | it took me 1.5, but I wil never rinstall a gentoo, that's all I know lol | 03:54 |
Fyawerx | oh, the adept site is down, but googles cache still works, its what i used to install it, for whoever was asking | 03:54 |

Tonio- | when will my computer be ready ? well, common friday, it might be okay ^^ | 03:55 |
=== slackbob twitches | ||
phil__ | godzero: running gentoo and keeping up to date involves that your cpu main load is gcc all the time at 50% (if you use a nice nice value) | 03:55 |
godzero | I got a celeron. nothing is blisteringly fast - even gentoo | 03:55 |
slackbob | i would only go back to gento if i got 64bit dual core that would show more advantages on self compiled software | 03:56 |
Tonio- | godzero: well in any case I don't see the real diffrence between "emerge" and "apt-build source" | 03:56 |

phil__ | Tonio-: works fine look | 04:14 |
nalioth | fatejudger: open a terminal | 04:14 |
fatejudger | nalioth: I did | 04:14 |
nalioth | fatejudger: and type "sudo apt-get -f install" | 04:14 |

Tonio- | phil did you reboot since last xorg update ? | 04:15 |
phil__ | Tonio-: yep | 04:15 |
Tonio- | shit lol ;) | 04:15 |
Tonio- | any idea on the way to correct the issue ? | 04:15 |
phil__ | Tonio-: are you from france | 04:15 |
Tonio- | yep | 04:15 |
phil__ | Tonio-: well i'm using canadain config | 04:15 |
fatejudger | nalioth: ok, what did that do? | 04:15 |
phil__ | Tonio-: not the same has yours | 04:15 |
Tonio- | ah, there is certainly a difference in the keymapping | 04:16 |
nalioth | fatejudger: you were watching the output. what DID it do? | 04:16 |
phil__ | Tonio-: Yes their is a difference | 04:16 |
Tonio- | okay so this is not a good test, I'll wait a few days, that is not very handicaping | 04:16 |
phil__ | Tonio-: set your keyboard layout and press shift-(key to right of p) than e it will work | 04:16 |
Tonio- | phil_: thanks | 04:16 |
fatejudger | nalioth: I can pastebin it | 04:16 |
fatejudger | nalioth: it's only a few lines long | 04:16 |

nalioth | fatejudger: did it run w/o errors? | 04:17 |
fatejudger | nalioth: well yeah | 04:17 |
fatejudger | nalioth: but it says that apt is the newest version | 04:17 |
fatejudger | nalioth: and doesn't install the package | 04:17 |
nalioth | fatejudger: what package? | 04:17 |
fatejudger | Note, selecting apt instead of libapt-pkg-libc6.3-5-3.9 | 04:17 |
fatejudger | apt is already the newest version. | 04:17 |
nalioth | fatejudger: where are you getting that libapt package? | 04:18 |
fatejudger | nalioth: that's what it says to install when I try to apt-get synaptic | 04:18 |

nalioth | fatejudger: paste me your /etc/sources.list (in a pastebin, not here) | 04:19 |
fatejudger | nalioth: that would be the output when I try and apt-get synaptic | 04:19 |
fatejudger | nalioth: yeah | 04:19 |
fatejudger | nalioth: ok | 04:19 |
fatejudger | nalioth: sorry it took me so long, I've been trying to comment and uncomment out some sources to see if I could get it working | 04:23 |
fatejudger | nalioth: http://pastebin.com/369612 | 04:23 |
nalioth | fatejudger: comment all unofficial repos out until you get your synaptic back | 04:24 |
nalioth | installing the libapt file you keep pasting will most likely hose your box | 04:24 |
fatejudger | nalioth: ? | 04:25 |
nalioth | fatejudger: comment out the non official repos, reload your apt db and insatll synaptic | 04:25 |
fatejudger | nalioth: nothing | 04:28 |
fatejudger | nalioth: I did apt-get upgrade | 04:28 |
fatejudger | nalioth: and then tried to reinstall synaptic | 04:28 |

Fyawerx | aptitude i think is nicer than apt-get, you can uninstall dependencies cant you | 04:40 |

sproingie | nalioth: it's unofficial? hm, i thought i only had official repos in mine. | 04:41 |
nalioth | fatejudger: if it aint on that list, it's not official | 04:41 |
fatejudger | nalioth: that was probably the first unofficial package I've installed besides wine | 04:41 |
nalioth | fatejudger: it only takes one | 04:41 |
fatejudger | nalioth: well wine didn't do it | 04:41 |
sproingie | or was this some bleeding edge version of adept? | 04:41 |
Fyawerx | adept installed fine for me when i did it, it uninstalled apt-get and synaptic i believe tho | 04:41 |
fatejudger | nalioth: why would it prevent me from install a legit package? | 04:41 |
sproingie | wine won't do it because it doesn't interface with the package management system itself | 04:41 |
Fyawerx | because it installs newer dependices that apt-get cant use i think | 04:42 |
fatejudger | Fyawerx: yeah, it uninstalls synaptic | 04:42 |
nalioth | fatejudger: because you have pkgs installed that wont let the official pkgs work | 04:42 |
fatejudger | nalioth: so basically it's apt-get or adept | 04:42 |
Fyawerx | or aptitude, or synaptic/k | 04:42 |
nalioth | fatejudger: you can always remove every gui item you have | 04:42 |
fatejudger | Fyawerx: I can't get kynaptic or synaptic to work again | 04:43 |
Fyawerx | can you reinstall over your current system with the install disc (not to you, general question i mean) | 04:43 |

nalioth | hydrogen: i've not come close to realizing all that can be done with linux on my boxen | 05:20 |
hydrogen | correct, but there are still limits | 05:20 |
nalioth | hydrogen: there are limits to the universe | 05:20 |
hydrogen | and most of the stuff you can do on linux can be done on windows too, just requires more inguity | 05:20 |
godzero | kheldoron: go in konqueror... navigate where you want it right click (pick new folder) name it what you want | 05:20 |
hydrogen | and limits right now include desktop usability, unless you are gonna pull the "you can just modify the code" arguement | 05:21 |
fatejudger | nalioth: many of the things you can do on windows, you can't do on linux | 05:21 |

Kheldoron | yes.. then? | 05:22 |
hydrogen | anyways, bed | 05:22 |
godzero | kheldoron: picked a spot yet? | 05:22 |
fatejudger | hydrogen: give me a break | 05:22 |
godzero | ok | 05:22 |
fatejudger | hydrogen: almost the entire ATI line is designed for Windows | 05:22 |
hydrogen | yep | 05:22 |
hydrogen | thats still only a small fraction | 05:23 |
fatejudger | hydrogen: a small fraction? | 05:23 |
fatejudger | hydrogen: that's almost half of the mainstream video cards | 05:23 |
hydrogen | alpha.. sparc.. mips.. sh... s390... all sorts of archetictures that are _not_ supported AT ALL under windows | 05:23 |
fatejudger | hydrogen: NVidia is really the only major player supporting OpenGL and Linux | 05:23 |
hydrogen | oh, and ppc | 05:23 |
godzero | now sudo mount /dev/hd4 /path/to/the folder/yoou/just/made | 05:23 |

godzero | when you left click on it.. what hilghts? | 05:44 |
nalioth | bpuccio: the size isnt that much different having both gnome and kde | 05:44 |
Kheldoron | when i left click what? the partition? | 05:45 |
godzero | yes | 05:45 |
Kheldoron | nothing except the little box.. | 05:46 |
godzero | does a line in the tree below it hilight? | 05:46 |
godzero | k | 05:46 |
bpuccio | nalioth: yes, I realize that, its just someone was telling me that to do a clean install, they download Ubuntu with GNOME, install kubuntu-desktop, then remove all the GNOME stuff, they don't just download the kubuntu CD, I was wondering if doing this resulted in something different | 05:46 |
bpuccio | thank you though, nalioth | 05:46 |

godzero | something didn't write out | 06:56 |
nalioth | godzero: no | 06:57 |
nalioth | godzero: it's written | 06:57 |
nalioth | godzero: y'all need to get the proper command sequence to mount it | 06:57 |
kheldoron | didnt help.. how about trying to fromat with qtparter? | 06:58 |
godzero | qtparted.. it's worth a shot I guess. I'm trying to remember what messes with the magic number | 06:59 |

kheldoron | what is an active partition? | 07:01 |
kheldoron | u know.. set active | 07:01 |
othomas | your boot partition is considered the active one | 07:02 |
kheldoron | ok.. we don want to change that | 07:02 |
othomas | nope | 07:02 |
othomas | what did you call it in your media dir kheldoron | 07:04 |
nalioth | active partitions are not necessary with grub | 07:04 |
kheldoron | Media heh | 07:04 |
godzero | can't find any good info on magic numbers.. but IIRC... it only IDs the format type | 07:04 |
othomas | try sudo mount /dev/hda2 /media/media | 07:05 |
godzero | you don't meen /media? | 07:05 |
kheldoron | hehe.. qtparted bugged out :) | 07:05 |
othomas | godzero, he called the new drive "media" in there | 07:06 |
kheldoron | "must specify the file system type" | 07:06 |
nalioth | godzero: listen to me. make his fstab. | 07:06 |
godzero | k | 07:06 |
othomas | so something is hosed ubuntu is good about recognizing file systems | 07:06 |
kheldoron | its like it doesnt save the type.. | 07:07 |
godzero | I wanted to see if we could mount first, but we'll do that | 07:07 |
kheldoron | what ever i format it in it always says unknown when i get back in qtparted.. | 07:07 |
othomas | change the /media/media dir to /media/hda2 dir | 07:08 |
godzero | kheldoron: lets set up fstab.. sudo nano /etc/fstab... add a line "/dev/hda2 /media/media ext3 defaults 0 2" | 07:08 |

othomas | two media directories may be confusing the issue | 07:09 |
godzero | othomas: I wouldn't think so, but I've heard of stranger things | 07:10 |
kheldoron | ok.. so ive donw the fstab.. save and quit? | 07:11 |
godzero | save = ctrl o | 07:11 |
godzero | then enter | 07:11 |
godzero | exit = ctrl x | 07:12 |
kheldoron | im way ahead of you.. heh | 07:12 |
kheldoron | and then? | 07:12 |
nalioth | kheldoron: now you should be able to just type "sudo mount /dev/hda2" | 07:12 |
godzero | mount -a | 07:12 |
nalioth | godzero: -a? | 07:13 |
godzero | either way | 07:13 |
godzero | mount all | 07:13 |
othomas | -a =auto | 07:13 |
othomas | hahaha | 07:13 |
nalioth | auto wrecks things | 07:13 |
othomas | uhhuh | 07:13 |
godzero | oh | 07:13 |
kheldoron | ok.. same as ususal.. | 07:13 |
nalioth | kheldoron: there is something we're not getting here | 07:14 |
godzero | magic number? | 07:14 |
kheldoron | im pretty convinced that we should focus on the formatting here.. | 07:14 |
kheldoron | i think thats the problem | 07:14 |

hater2win | hey guys, i just set up my computer for "fish" and "ssh" capabilities, i was wondering, how can i limit specific users to only their assigned /home/username/ folder????? | 07:15 |
kheldoron | ok.. so now it has appeard in the media storage... but now it says that only root can mount it.. | 07:17 |
othomas | headway at last | 07:17 |
godzero | if you were to reboot, the root /init envoronment should mount it | 07:20 |
kheldoron | ok.. brb then | 07:20 |
hater2win | anybody? | 07:20 |
othomas | hater2win, set privilages on each home directory to the specific user | 07:21 |
godzero | hater2win: not w/o heave chmod | 07:21 |
godzero | heavy | 07:21 |
Kamping_Kaiser | isnt there something in /etc/ for that? | 07:21 |
Kamping_Kaiser | some security files? | 07:22 |
Kamping_Kaiser | anyway, brb | 07:22 |
hater2win | Kamping_Kaiser! lol | 07:22 |
othomas | you can use konqueror to do it.. | 07:22 |
hater2win | well, see, i have a friend that i use fish to send files back n forth | 07:22 |
hater2win | but i dont want him getting in my /media/ folder | 07:22 |
hater2win | to check out my shit | 07:22 |
othomas | lol | 07:22 |
godzero | I had it under mandrake.. and a cron job that checked 'em all | 07:22 |
hater2win | i just want to restrict axss to just his specific /home folder | 07:23 |
othomas | just set yours to owner all priv, others none | 07:23 |
_exec | is there now other change to keep the user in his home? | 07:24 |

kheldoron | godzero: still i think we need to focus on the formatting | 07:25 |
godzero | yep | 07:25 |
kheldoron | so except from qtparted.. where else can i do it? | 07:26 |
godzero | I'm pretty out of ideas | 07:26 |

asechris | hi | 07:26 |
godzero | 1 thing i can think of | 07:26 |
kheldoron | anything.. | 07:26 |
godzero | use knoppix to format hda2 | 07:27 |
kheldoron | how? | 07:27 |
kheldoron | silly name.. :) | 07:27 |
othomas | _exec, to keep all from exploring will require a lot of work..they need to have execute on many programs..restricting "home" is usually good enough | 07:27 |
godzero | download & burn the iso to a cd rom, use the commands you seen here | 07:27 |
asechris | Hi 'all. Total newbie here .. looking for some help to install Firefox on my KUBUNTU system (Trying to get off my Redmond Dependancy)... Can anyone please PM me ? | 07:28 |
kheldoron | so knoppix is a boot cd? | 07:28 |
godzero | kh: yep | 07:28 |
kheldoron | doh | 07:28 |
_exec | k | 07:28 |
_exec | thx | 07:28 |
hater2win | asechris: type this in the command line sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox | 07:28 |
nalioth | asechris: we can help you in the channel | 07:29 |
kheldoron | its 7:29 am here now.. | 07:29 |
asechris | Thanks hater2win. (the terminal window?) | 07:29 |
=== kheldoron yawn | ||
godzero | 1230 here | 07:29 |
asechris | ok, thanks guys (& Gals ...) | 07:29 |
nalioth | asechris: as we help you, we help others who see how we help you | 07:29 |
hater2win | sudo tells your b0x that you want to perform an action as root. apt-get is telling it to get a specific package from a repository, install mozilla-firefox tells it what program to find and install | 07:29 |
kheldoron | lucky bastard! | 07:29 |
godzero | brain going mushy | 07:29 |
asechris | terrific. | 07:29 |
hater2win | asechris: yes, in the terminal window | 07:29 |
kheldoron | what are you complaining about? i havent slept yet.. | 07:30 |
asechris | I tried to D/L the binaries & then I used ARK to extrac them into my ASECHRIS directory.... but I am lost after that | 07:30 |
godzero | lol | 07:30 |
godzero | now I don't feel so bad... | 07:30 |
othomas | _exec, if they know user names they can jump there..so you may need to go deeper in the user directories to prevent exploring those | 07:30 |
kheldoron | i do | 07:30 |
kheldoron | :'( | 07:30 |
_exec | othomas: they can't ;) | 07:30 |
asechris | so would I just goto my directory & use an 'install' command? | 07:30 |
othomas | kk | 07:31 |
hater2win | depends | 07:31 |
hater2win | when you use apt-get | 07:31 |
_exec | if u give /media chmod 700... no one without owner can'T jump in a deeper dir | 07:31 |
hater2win | you are basically getting a file from a repository | 07:31 |

othomas | kk | 07:31 |
nalioth | asechris: for easier installations, use kynaptic | 07:31 |
hater2win | so sometimes, you can download debian (.deb) packages off the net in diff places and install those | 07:31 |

jeh | do you wish to update a hoary to breezy or just get the newest packages for your current version? | 10:51 |
phazeman | jeh: i thought to try out the breezy but i don't want to reinstall everything | 10:51 |
phazeman | just run the apt-get update && upgrade | 10:52 |
phazeman | is it possible ? | 10:52 |
Tm_T | phazeman: yes, after you modified your sources.list | 10:52 |
jeh | check sources.list to point it to breezy | 10:52 |
phazeman | ok... going to hunt for some info | 10:52 |
phazeman | thanks muc | 10:52 |
phazeman | much* | 10:52 |
jeh | then apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 10:52 |
phazeman | is there any known page that list the sources ? something like easy urpmi ? | 10:53 |
Tm_T | hmm, what about replacing all "hoary" parts with "breezy" ? | 10:53 |
Tm_T | I think it'll do the trick | 10:54 |
phazeman | ahhhh | 10:54 |
jeh | can't be that easy | 10:54 |
phazeman | thanks.. going to tray that | 10:54 |
phazeman | try* | 10:54 |
phazeman | jeh: why not ? lets try :) | 10:54 |
Tm_T | haha | 10:54 |
jeh | please be my guinea pig :) | 10:54 |
jeh | oink! oink! | 10:54 |
Tm_T | jeh: well, apt is easy | 10:54 |
phazeman | did any of you see this article ? http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_5.04 | 10:55 |
jeh | Tm_T: i was more thinking about that something would break. i know that apt is easy | 10:55 |
phazeman | i just wonder if thats that easy as they say to do.... | 10:55 |
Tm_T | jeh: breaking things... fun \o/ | 10:55 |
phazeman | jeh: i don't mind to break the system.... | 10:55 |
phazeman | it's fun :) | 10:55 |
after8 | phazeman> page listing sources? yes | 10:55 |
phazeman | much more fun is to fix the broke... | 10:55 |
jeh | fun for the whole family when daddy curses at the computer :) | 10:55 |
after8 | !repositories | 10:55 |
ubotu | methinks repositories is at at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto A list of official repositories can be found at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/969 (Hoary) or http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/2325 (Breezy) | 10:55 |

Tm_T | ubotu: sure | 10:56 |
ubotu | Tm_T: I'm not sure, is it larger than a breadbox? | 10:56 |
Tm_T | ubotu: well, it MUST be | 10:56 |
ubotu | Tm_T: Did you get hit by a windmill? | 10:56 |
jeh | Tm_T: don't think it groks finnish... | 10:56 |

Tm_T | spend | 10:57 |
jeh | of course :) | 10:57 |
Tm_T | ubotu: moron | 10:57 |
ubotu | I haven't a clue, Tm_T | 10:57 |
Tm_T | as I said... | 10:57 |
jeh | phazeman: is it broken already? | 10:58 |
phazeman | jeh: what ? | 10:58 |
phazeman | what broken > | 10:58 |
phazeman | ? | 10:58 |
Tm_T | I'm not | 10:59 |
jeh | phazeman: your breezy update | 10:59 |
phazeman | jeh: i didn't start it yel lol | 11:00 |
phazeman | i'm still in the consideration state | 11:00 |
jeh | heh | 11:00 |
after8 | phazeman> break it ;) ! !! !! | 11:00 |
after8 | if you know how to repair, that is. | 11:00 |
phazeman | hehe | 11:00 |
jeh | putting peer pressure on poor phazeman | 11:00 |
phazeman | actually.. i'm a mandriva person... but i don't mind to play :) | 11:01 |
phazeman | hehe | 11:01 |
Tm_T | bah, I can't see any reasons why it'll break anything | 11:01 |
morrow | hmmmmmm xfonts-terminus installs to a wrong location :/ | 11:02 |
jeh | nah, it shouldn't break anything. but the emphasis is on the word "shouldn't" | 11:02 |
after8 | jeh> a new PPP protocol? | 11:02 |
after8 | PPPP even ;) | 11:02 |
jeh | heh | 11:02 |
phazeman | actually i think i will not upgrade | 11:03 |
phazeman | since i already have what i need | 11:03 |
phazeman | and, anyway, i have to wait until my download finish | 11:03 |
phazeman | :)))) | 11:03 |
Tm_T | =) | 11:03 |
phazeman | but it's good to know how | 11:03 |
phazeman | why would i upgrade if i have all the functionality already ? | 11:04 |
phazeman | did any of you look into the link i gave about the server install ? | 11:04 |
phazeman | http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_5.04 | 11:04 |
phazeman | i just wonder if it's any good | 11:04 |
phazeman | ha ? | 11:05 |
jeh | well, i don't run an isp so i have no idea | 11:06 |
phazeman | i think it's a cool thing to build your home server when you are a newb and this is what you want your linux machine to be | 11:09 |
phazeman | but it's me | 11:09 |
after8 | phazeman> loooots of ppl share your opinion, for it is a fine one ;) | 11:10 |
phazeman | after8: i didn't try it yet but definatly think to do so the next week | 11:10 |
phazeman | if it all works as it says it is - definataly great thing | 11:10 |
after8 | it works, with a bit of | 11:12 |

Cyberjames | aftertaf, but I can able to print/./.. | 01:05 |
aftertaf | in kde? | 01:05 |
tucoz | So I thought that there might be some unoffical theme packages available through apt-get | 01:05 |

aftertaf | though you can play around alot with themes and stuff.... | 01:11 |
tucoz | yes, I know. But a lot of the themes in kdelook does not come in 'theme-packages'. It seems that you have to install by doing some sudo work | 01:12 |

apokryphos | for styles and window decorations; for other things, nope. | 01:13 |
tucoz | ok. I think I'll just download a theme and read the README then :) | 01:13 |
apokryphos | (in theory you don't even need sudo for those, if you compile the style/windec and install it user-side somewhere) | 01:13 |
aftertaf | tucoz> ohh the kde lok site.. true... | 01:14 |
apokryphos | tucoz: it's better to just individually pick what you want from styles, windecs etc and investigate | 01:14 |

tucoz | apokryphos, probably. Just like the apt-get way, to install stuff with a bang | 01:15 |
apokryphos | aftertaf: KNewStuff, but it's hard to implement with styles/windecs (which require compiling); even icons won't have knewstuff for kde 3.5, unfortunately. | 01:15 |
apokryphos | tucoz: some styles and icons are available from apt; you could try some of those. | 01:16 |

mornfall | kmail sucks | 02:03 |
mornfall | kinda | 02:03 |
mornfall | crashy and unreliable | 02:03 |
mornfall | and i hate unreliable soft | 02:03 |
chx | wow we are down to 95K files... | 02:04 |
chx | kmail-- | 02:04 |
chx | Opera M2++ | 02:04 |
chx | When I had about 1000 messages in a folder | 02:04 |
chx | really not mcuh | 02:04 |
chx | kmail and search became orthogonal :) | 02:04 |
chx | Opera M2 can deal with 100 000 mails in a folder and still do incremental search without any noticeable delays. | 02:05 |
mornfall | that's virtually impossible you know :) | 02:05 |
chx | mornfall: heard of databases :) ? | 02:05 |
mornfall | chx: yeah, but you need to do linear search here | 02:06 |
chx | hmmm | 02:06 |
chx | prefix tree I gues. | 02:06 |
mornfall | chx: and linear search on substrings is, well, linear search on substrings | 02:06 |
JabberWokky | Not if you index them as they come in. | 02:06 |
chx | yes, there is definitely an index | 02:06 |
mornfall | erm, what kind of index? if it only matches on words, it's useless | 02:07 |
mornfall | well | 02:07 |
mornfall | yeah, i guess you can do an index and match that index | 02:07 |
=== verwilst [n=verwilst@212.123.1.32] has joined #kubuntu | ||
JabberWokky | Yes. That's how most indexes work... like htdig or... uhh... Google. | 02:07 |
mornfall | JabberWokky: htdig and google only matches on words | 02:07 |
JabberWokky | (I'd assume) | 02:07 |
mornfall | that's _easy_ | 02:08 |
aftertaf | opera installs oracle 9i hidden version for mail searching ... hehe | 02:08 |
JabberWokky | mornfall: No, they can match on phrase. | 02:08 |
chx | of course Opera matches only words | 02:08 |
mornfall | JabberWokky: that's an easy extension of easy concept | 02:08 |
mornfall | i need _substrings_ | 02:08 |
chx | mornfall: there is a non-incremental search , too | 02:08 |
mornfall | chx: incremental search needs to work on substrings, too | 02:08 |
chx | mornfall: what's more you can make that search permanent... very convinient... no folders just filters | 02:09 |
JabberWokky | No it doesn't... not if the start falls at a word. | 02:09 |
chx | JabberWokky: exactly | 02:09 |
JabberWokky | Besides, there are other ways to index. | 02:09 |
mornfall | yeah, if you have an per-word index over message headers, you could do substring match on that and then make union over the matching words | 02:11 |
mornfall | question is, how big such an index becomes | 02:11 |
chx | opera quicksearch works on more than headers -- full text. | 02:12 |
chx | btw. is there a good algorithm to match 1000 search strings at once against a text? | 02:13 |
chx | I guess some preprocessing needs to be done and then it'll be blazing fast | 02:13 |

hussam | It there any change that kde 3.5 can hit archive.ubuntu.com once it goes final? | 05:35 |

hussam | buz: when is kde 3.5 due for release? | 05:36 |
buz | dunno, really | 05:36 |
buz | but it would have to be fast it's only beta 1 after all | 05:36 |
buz | works btw | 05:36 |

thoreauputic | LokeDK: you may be confused - alsa is a sound architecture, artsd is a sound daemon like esound | 05:38 |
apokryphos | Eventually all of them will be available from a site (and there'll be an easy make file for them) | 05:38 |
thoreauputic | LokeDK: IOW, artsd uses alsa | 05:38 |
nikkia | thoreauputic: thats a gross oversimplification :) | 05:38 |
thoreauputic | nikkia: of course it is | 05:39 |
LokeDK | Okay I guess I have misunderstood something | 05:39 |
thoreauputic | :) | 05:39 |
nikkia | thoreauputic: weirdly, alsa *can* act as a sort of sound daemon | 05:39 |
thoreauputic | nikkia: KISS principle? | 05:39 |
=== LokeDK [i=loke@216-55-137-12.dedicated.abac.net] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
thoreauputic | nikkia: but if you can explain it more accurately, of course that would be preferable :) | 05:40 |
nikkia | thoreauputic: the problem is, there are two aspects of alsa, that are *usually* interconnected, but not necessarily so | 05:40 |
nikkia | there are the drivers, and the sound library (asound) | 05:40 |
thoreauputic | nikkia: OK that's interesting | 05:40 |
nikkia | the sound library doesn't actually have to use alsa as its back end | 05:40 |
nikkia | for example, and this is where its going to get weird... | 05:41 |
nikkia | i have alsa as my sound drivers, on top of that runs jack, then i have alsa configured to use jackplug as its output device | 05:41 |
nalioth | anybody had trouble with ppc networking with the last few updates? | 05:41 |
nikkia | that means programs that try to write to alsa for audio playback, play via jack, which plays via alsa :) | 05:41 |

thoreauputic | hussam: oops - sorry | 05:43 |
thoreauputic | hussam: I meant LokeDK of course | 05:43 |
nikkia | thoreauputic: the only limitation i have, with jack, is that i have to stop the jack server to run my (work) java apps with sound, because the lwjgl doesn't like being wrapped with any 'oss wrapper' for some reason | 05:43 |

nalioth | seth_k: how does one recover from the network snafu? my x works fine on the ibook, just no network | 05:48 |
nikkia | before anyone says 'this is fine, don't run it as root' remember that you're actually supposed to run firefox and thunderbird as root *once* initially to seed the global profile stuff | 05:48 |
=== nalioth alreaday knows the answer to his own question | ||
nalioth | nikkia: really? i haven't run any member of the mozilla family as root in a long long time | 05:49 |
nikkia | nalioth: yep, its 'required' to setup stuff like the plugin registry | 05:50 |

chx | to my understanding, Debian Sid / Etch is undergoing something called a "C++ ABI transition". Some packages (konversation for eg.) are available for this new system only. Question is: Breezy is after or before this? | 07:16 |
Riddell | chx: breezy has completed that transition | 07:17 |
chx | cool. It's not that I have the slightest idea of what I am talking of, I just would like to get Konversation 0.18 from a deb and for that I am dist-upgrading now. | 07:17 |

nikkia | chx, the transition is scarier than it sounds | 07:17 |
nikkia | it basically boils down to 'compile the OS and apps with gcc 4.0 instead of 3.3' | 07:18 |
Johnny- | Is the preview version how "preview", stable? | 07:18 |
nikkia | erm | 07:18 |
nikkia | i mean 'sounds scarier than it is' | 07:18 |
jjesse | Johnny-: I've had no problems with it | 07:18 |
nikkia | not sure how i managed to type the exact opposite | 07:18 |
chx | nikkia: you mean that Deb. and Ubuntu folks have recompiled _all_ stuff? | 07:18 |
Riddell | I got scared by it, I still get c++ transition nightmares sometimes | 07:18 |
nikkia | chx, i imagine so, it doesn't take long | 07:18 |
nikkia | chx, i'm running LFS, it took me about 2 days to build the base OS, and another 3-4 to get KDE, et al, compiled | 07:19 |
chx | nikkia: from what Riddell said, it does not sound like a garden party | 07:19 |
nikkia | chx, packaging new packages necessarily involves recompiling them anyway | 07:19 |
Johnny- | jjesse, good to know :) | 07:19 |
nikkia | chx, for 99% of the apps on the OS, it probably isn't an issue at all, you just recompile | 07:20 |
nikkia | chx, for that 1% that's where the mess is, if the compile fails because of a 4.0 change (and there are a few) then you have to patch it, or hope someone upstream already has | 07:20 |
chx | Johnny-: several people in this channel said to me that breezy preview is already OK | 07:20 |
Johnny- | chx, ok | 07:21 |
nikkia | chx, the hardest part of such a transition is actually probably organising the contributors to rebuild their packages, debian has more contributors than ubuntu, thus it will take longer for them | 07:21 |
chx | Johnny-: and quite frankly, just a month before release it needs to be nearly stable... | 07:21 |
spiral | ohhhhwww.... kdm launches but it then falls back to console, & I don't see it again with kde 3.5beta1... am I the only one ? | 07:21 |
Johnny- | Yep | 07:22 |
nalioth | chx: it is if you remember it's goin thru major bugfixes atm | 07:22 |
nikkia | chx, btw, in one sense an ABI transition can be a good thing | 07:24 |
nikkia | chx, it gives you a good excuse to sort out the no-longer-responding contributors from the general pack | 07:24 |
chx | oh yes | 07:25 |

=== smux [n=smux@home.mescaline.fr] has joined #kubuntu | ||
libben | like hotkey-setup for instance. | 10:42 |
libben | its installed | 10:42 |
libben | and after ive unlinked it, i can also uninstall it. | 10:43 |
rafa | yes you can remove that too | 10:43 |
rafa | I think that hprinting is S19hplip | 10:43 |
rafa | if you don't use modem you can remove S14ppp | 10:43 |
=== test [n=test@205.130.76.83.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #kubuntu | ||
libben | just use nic's for my internet | 10:43 |
libben | no modem here. | 10:44 |
rafa | other one is S19cupsys this one is for cups | 10:44 |
libben | hmm | 10:44 |
libben | why not just complete removal in synaptic on hpprinting packages ? | 10:45 |
rafa | one thing, what we are doing du estart this runlevelosen't uninstall or remove the daemons only it won't load the next time yo | 10:45 |
libben | it should unlink it too | 10:45 |
rafa | yes, but I don't know in which package is hpprinting | 10:45 |
rafa | :D | 10:45 |
libben | hplip-ppds | 10:46 |
libben | for starter | 10:46 |
libben | i only searched for "printing" | 10:46 |
libben | and found som HP things | 10:46 |
libben | that all points to be printing daemons etc etc. | 10:46 |
rafa | if you don't need them remove them | 10:47 |
libben | kdeprint i can leave. cause of kde sake, but all that has HP in its name, i will uninstall completly | 10:47 |
libben | well, this box wont get a printer . | 10:47 |
libben | has it been without one in 5 years. | 10:47 |

libben | ill think it wont be bothered with one later anyway | 10:47 |
`Nomad | I have a good one.. I need to find a dial-up router (physical, not a PC). :) Any idea? | 10:47 |
rafa | no ideas nomad, may be use an old pc as a router | 10:49 |
`Nomad | it's my thought too, but I have to leave it behind and they're very non-technical.. I wouldn't want to have to come back down here to reboot anything :) | 10:50 |
=== narg [n=narg@dsl-65-171-97-57.tcq.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
`Nomad | still.. That's probably the best bet. No HD, just a floppy or CD like Freesco | 10:50 |
rafa | nomad, there are many linux distros to do routing and fix in a floppy | 10:51 |
libben | rafa: i should be good with removing all that has with printing to do. | 10:51 |
rafa | it souldn't be difficult to find one for you | 10:51 |
libben | use knoppix =) | 10:51 |
libben | is cups crucial to the system? its ok to remove all that printing software? | 10:52 |
`Nomad | thanks.. that's what I think I'll end up doing.. a physical router that does that is probably too expensive for them too | 10:54 |

rafa | and old 386 would be enough, nomad | 10:55 |
rafa | I think you can remove all the printing software without problems | 10:56 |
