| seth_k | no they're on that page | 12:34 |
| seth_k | @ inc|freaky | 12:34 |
| philipacamaniac | it doesn't always work | 12:34 |
| seth_k | just scroll down | 12:34 |
| seth_k | Chambers`, what's a par2? | 12:34 |
| havoc | seth_k: and really easy hole? | 12:35 |
| Chambers` | parity files | 12:35 |
| Chambers` | they are mostly used when d/ling binaries | 12:35 |
| seth_k | havoc: :D | 12:35 |

| gdh | Chambers`: honestly, how hard is it to type 'par2repair nameof.par2' ? | 12:38 |
| Chambers` | gdh: it's not, but it'd be nice to have a gui that it would check and repair if needed | 12:39 |
| Chambers` | how hard would it be to make one is the question? :P | 12:39 |
| gdh | You could associate par2repair with .par2 files and have it keep the terminal window open... | 12:39 |
| Chambers` | either no one uses par2 files that uses linux or no one cares | 12:40 |
| inc|freaky | seth_k: would you recommend upgrading to the kde3.5 beta? | 12:40 |
| gdh | a GUI for this task is completely unnecessary :) | 12:40 |
| Chambers` | no way, quickpar for windows is a really nice prog | 12:40 |
| gdh | Chambers`: Linux users generally don't have the fixation with having absolutely everything clicky-clicky.. | 12:40 |
| gdh | I know, I've used Quickpar. | 12:40 |
| Chambers` | gdh: i know :) | 12:40 |
| Chambers` | linux users like command line...hmm, maybe i could make a bash script for them | 12:41 |
| Chambers` | that would be nice | 12:41 |
| gdh | It's just a lot handier to 'screen' an nzbget, par2repair, unrar, mount an ISO all remotely etc. | 12:41 |

| seth_k | inc|freaky, it's worthwhile imo | 12:43 |
| inc|freaky | seth_k: ill install it now ... hopefully it will break nothing. one more question: if i install it, and in one week the stable release comes out, it becomes automatically updated? and if i update to breeze, can i then just take out the mirrors? | 12:43 |
| gdh | the tools should all set sensible returncodes... | 12:43 |
| seth_k | inc|freaky, no showstopper bugs and lots of fixes | 12:43 |
| seth_k | inc|freaky, I wouldn't do it until you update to breezy tho | 12:43 |
| inc|freaky | yea im not updating to breezy | 12:43 |
| inc|freaky | seth_k: are you running breezy? if yes, are there any problems while doing upgrades if it dist-upgraded once? | 12:44 |
| seth_k | inc|freaky, i've been running breezy since the day after hoary was released | 12:45 |
| inc|freaky | oh ic you always run testing | 12:45 |
| inc|freaky | breezy is testing right? | 12:45 |
| seth_k | inc|freaky, usually you'll need to do a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to get X back after the upgrade | 12:45 |
| inc|freaky | thats np | 12:45 |
| inc|freaky | do i have to reinstall the nvidia driver? | 12:45 |
| inc|freaky | seth_k: what kde comes with breezy? because im the .4 mirror right now | 12:46 |
| inc|freaky | 4.2 | 12:46 |
| inc|freaky | from the official repository | 12:46 |
| seth_k | 3.4 will be in breezy i think | 12:47 |
| inc|freaky | seth_k: is breezy like unstable or like testing? | 12:47 |
| seth_k | i dunno the debian equivalent | 12:47 |
| inc|freaky | if 5.4 is stable then breezy would be testing | 12:47 |
| seth_k | ok | 12:48 |
| inc|freaky | ive been running testing this morning | 12:48 |
| inc|freaky | im usually at testing | 12:48 |
| inc|freaky | so well ill just upgrade to breezy and keep the 4.2 kde sources | 12:48 |

| cyne | there is the error mentioned here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com//KubuntuHoaryReleaseKnownProblems | 05:40 |
| === regeya_ [n=shane@adsl-sp3-cdale176.micgi.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| cyne | k3b misses cdrao (it was setuid root, should be possible to make it not setuid) | 05:40 |
| cyne | so how do i fix that? | 05:41 |
| jsubl2 | cyne: just try it.. it will probably work without it | 05:42 |
| nicholaspaul | hey NSK... nope, this drive still aint workin. | 05:42 |
| jsubl2 | nicholaspaul: dmesg|grep hd and see if you see your drive in the output | 05:43 |
| nicholaspaul | i get a usage error | 05:44 |
| jsubl2 | does that mean you see it | 05:44 |
| cyne | jsubl2: hmmm ok | 05:44 |
| cyne | why? | 05:44 |
| jsubl2 | did it work??? | 05:45 |
| cyne | K3b uses cdrdao to actually write CDs. | 05:45 |
| cyne | Solution: Install the cdrdao package. | 05:45 |
| cyne | i don't have a cd... i was going to burn a dvd | 05:45 |
| jsubl2 | good luck | 05:45 |
| regeya | cyne: install cdrdao. possibly you might need to sudo u+s `which cdrdao` | 05:46 |
| nicholaspaul | jsubl2 Yea i see it | 05:46 |

| nicholaspaul | k. now what ?? jsubl2 | 05:47 |
| inc|freaky | jsubl2: why should i leave it? | 05:47 |
| jsubl2 | nicholaspaul: that should allow you to see the partitions that are on the disk if they are any or you can partition the disk | 05:47 |
| inc|freaky | jsubl2: from outside only my ssh is reachable thats what i want ^^ | 05:48 |
| nicholaspaul | i just made one big partition. do i fdisk now? | 05:48 |
| jsubl2 | fdisk and cfdisk are about the same thing | 05:48 |
| jsubl2 | nicholaspaul: no now you make a file system on it. | 05:48 |
| nicholaspaul | mkfs? jsubl2 | 05:49 |

| jsubl2 | cfdisk | 05:52 |
| jsubl2 | cfdisk shows the number on the left | 05:52 |

| jsubl2 | perhaps someone with less booze in them should help nicholaspaul | 05:54 |
| nicholaspaul | jsubl2 LOL | 05:54 |

| Stricklin | Ummm... no? | 07:53 |
| Hobbsee | i've only been using it for a couple of months :P | 07:53 |
| Stricklin | I just ran the CD | 07:53 |
| Stricklin | it formatted everything | 07:53 |
| Hobbsee | which cd did you just run? | 07:54 |
| Hobbsee | breezy or hoary cd? | 07:54 |
| Stricklin | Hoary 5.04 for AMD64 | 07:54 |
| Stricklin | I've got a 250GB drive | 07:54 |
| Stricklin | (If that matters for anything) | 07:55 |
| Hobbsee | so you could dual boot with it...if you were to download the kubuntu release candidate | 07:55 |

| Hobbsee | yeah | 07:56 |

| Hobbsee | or did it auto partition? | 07:57 |
| Stricklin | I'm considering going to cable | 07:57 |

| Hobbsee | right... | 07:57 |
| Stricklin | something about 'swap' and 'ext' | 07:57 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 07:58 |
| Hobbsee | you've got your / partition and your swap partition | 07:58 |
| Hobbsee | and ext3 is the file system on your / partition | 07:58 |
| Stricklin | Well, I'll just wait... | 07:58 |
| Hobbsee | i suppose that if you wanted to, you could | 07:58 |
| Hobbsee | if you have major problems, then just boot from the install cd again | 07:59 |
| Hobbsee | and just reinstall your system | 07:59 |
| Stricklin | Can I approximate Mac OS with KDE? | 07:59 |

| buz | is there a way to get svn support into kubuntu's kdevelop? | 11:46 |
| god-zero | A lady who wanted me you jazz up her web site wanted me to make a loud gavel banging sound on this one page.. I refused.. tied to explain how well that would go over on the user's end in an office... she didn't get it | 11:46 |
| cyne | nikkia: is it better than digiKam? | 11:46 |
| nikkia | cyne: *shrug* i personally, prefer to just 'import' from gimp, using a seperate app to extract the image, then having to run gimp anyway to crop/resize/touch-up would just irritate me | 11:47 |
| buz | personally i just stick my CF card into the reader, copy the images from it and never look at them again | 11:47 |
| cyne | nikkia: sure if you can wait for gimp to load with every image | 11:47 |
| nikkia | cyne, why would you do that? | 11:48 |
| nikkia | cyne: you run gimp once, then ask it to acquire each image, its one step | 11:48 |
| cyne | nikkia: because i have a habit of closing it | 11:48 |
| cyne | :P | 11:48 |
| nikkia | cyne: gimp-gphoto gives you a dialog box with a lot of images, you choose the ones to import, and gimp imports them all | 11:48 |
| nalioth | nikkia: you're teasin me, friend | 11:49 |
| cyne | it appears i already have gphot lib installed, now to run the gimp | 11:50 |
| cyne | install the gimp rather | 11:50 |

| god-zero | nikkia: Have you worked with qt4? If so are the SVGs all they're cracked up to be? I'd relly like everything to be scaleable. | 11:53 |
| cyne | i refuse to use firefox because konqueror is so much more well integrated with kde | 11:54 |

| nalioth | god-zero: svg is great! | 11:55 |
| nikkia | nalioth: its for a UI for a project i'm working on (in my spare time) | 11:56 |
| nalioth | nikkia: looks fine to me (may make it my desktop background | 11:56 |
| nikkia | god-zero: my main reservation about SVG is that you either go with a fairly flat-ish basic interface element, or you have a several dozen k svg object that is going to be slower to render, it just entirely depends on what your interface is trying to achieve tho | 11:57 |
| god-zero | I'm really interested in qt4/kde4 with all the SVG stuff. I hope we can off load the work to the GPU. | 11:57 |
| nikkia | for simple interfaces (say, a replacement for a Qt theme for buttons, etc) it will work ok, but for 'photo-realistic' interfaces it won't cut it | 11:58 |

| Hagarke | hi all, if a package for (k)ubuntu is not compiled the way i like it to be compiled, should i recompile, repackage and keep the package, or is there a possibility to fork packages ? I had the problem with Amarok, which comes with settings opposite to what I like (mysql, sqllite). Recompiling this changes the dependencies for that package drastically | 12:11 |
| nikkia | cyne, and don't call me dude, please :P | 12:11 |
| god-zero | insanekane: lol | 12:11 |

| cyne | nikkia: gimp-gphoto isn't available in the default kynaptic it appears | 12:12 |
| insanekane | Hagarke: so amarok uses mysql/sqlite, but you don't like it that way ? | 12:13 |
| nikkia | cyne, i don't think that package exists, i think gimp just uses sane, if present, and if sane detects gphoto exists.... | 12:13 |

| god-zero | I'm used to RPM based distros. What's the relationship between apt and dpkg? | 12:28 |
| cyne | god-zero: alien -d -i package-name will convert package-name to .deb and install it | 12:29 |
| cyne | from rpm | 12:29 |
| cyne | and call dpkg to install it | 12:29 |
| gdh | god-zero: dpkg is lke the rpm binary itself, apt can be thought of more like up2date ... | 12:30 |
| gdh | that's a massive simplification, but works for the most part. | 12:30 |
| insanekane | anyone know the command to regenerate vmlinuz ? | 12:31 |
| insanekane | something to do with reading /modules/* to generate it ? | 12:31 |
| god-zero | I know about alien.. I was wondering why we use apt for 99% of things... but in odd places we use dpkg... | 12:32 |
| insanekane | god-zero: apt uses dpkg too | 12:32 |
| gdh | god-zero: in the ideal world, apt works with retrieving updates and installing new software from remote locations, dpkg works solely on the local package-base | 12:32 |
| gdh | apt is a nice frontend to resolve dependencies.. you *could* get by using only dpkg and wget'ing .deb files manually, but there's no need to | 12:33 |

| Hagarke | insanekane: I saw those keys in the packages (for arts, xmms, ...) . Problem is that, imho, you need to compile with all the settings enabled. I'm afraid that this will imply that you need all the dependencies too, even if you will not use it. | 01:01 |

| insanekane | Hagarke: didnt think of it | 01:26 |
| insanekane | Hagarke: adept says amarok is "upgradeable" | 01:26 |

| insanekane | god-zero: you can trap DBUS events using a python script | 01:33 |
| god-zero | python.. I really want to learn it. I usually only program in assembly on imbedded stuff. My high level programming skills have atrophied pretty bad | 01:34 |
| insanekane | god-zero: yeah sure :P | 01:35 |
| god-zero | ? | 01:35 |
| insanekane | god-zero: i do embedded PIC programming | 01:35 |
| insanekane | god-zero: anyway, its easy to learn python ... as a matter of fact, you know most of it already | 01:36 |
| god-zero | you do embedded too? What types of aplications? I do automation, robotics, some vision. I do some of the hardware desighn, almost all of the electrical design. | 01:38 |
| insanekane | god-zero: i don't do *any* of the electrical design :) im a software engineer (whatever) ... i just do the programming, and help with the planning for the electronic design | 01:39 |
| insanekane | god-zero: so far, mostly automation, audio controls, crap like that | 01:39 |
| insanekane | god-zero: did a GPS project once though (GPS module <-> PIC <-> GSM module interfacing :P ) | 01:40 |
| god-zero | I thought about java, then I heard about python.. sounds more like what I want. | 01:40 |
| insanekane | yes python is much better imho | 01:41 |

| CaiN_SA | nee sies | 02:28 |
| Blissex | CaiN_SA: wait a sec -- are you trying to install the 'language-pack-xx' packages or directly the KDE/... ones? | 02:28 |
| CaiN_SA | both | 02:29 |
| Blissex | CaiN_SA: because I am looking at the 'language-pack-xx' ones and the french one for example has no dependencies... which means it would not work, because it should be a ''metapackage''. | 02:30 |
| CaiN_SA | i have kde-i18n-af install but afrikaans doesnt work | 02:31 |

| CaiN_SA | lol | 02:48 |

| orace| | cool | 03:26 |
| dell500 | well i've got 2 sections for both monitors | 03:27 |
| nikkia | dell500: that will likely create 2 seperate X displays, both with their own screen | 03:27 |

| orace| | cool | 03:28 |
| Blissex | dell500: thats because you configured the desktop size wrong. | 03:28 |
| dell500 | aw i c | 03:28 |
| Blissex | dell500: or you configured the monitors wrong, so X cannot put them in a resolution to match that of your desktop. | 03:29 |
| dell500 | is there a site i can load the conf file? | 03:29 |
| === obontu [n=obontu@80.179.185.46.static.012.net.il] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
| dell500 | should I use all these server flags and such, they look nifty lol | 03:29 |
| Blissex | dell500: so if you configured your desktop to be 1280x1204 but the monitor is only configured to do 1024x768, then the virtual desktop will be 1280x1024 and you will scroll at the margins. | 03:29 |

| apokryphos | dell500: you can use a pastebin | 03:31 |
| Blissex | dell500: so to fix it specify the right vertical and horizontal frequencies in the sections describing the monitors. | 03:31 |
| nikkia | !pastebin | 03:31 |
| ubotu | hmm... pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl | 03:31 |
| dell500 | Blissex, they are correct | 03:32 |
| dell500 | for both monitors | 03:32 |
| Blissex | dell500: then look at the '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' file to see why the virtual and the real monitor resolution are different. | 03:33 |
| dell500 | aw, ok | 03:33 |
| dell500 | i think simply logging out and then logging back in doesn't make a difference on how the xorg is loaded | 03:35 |
| dell500 | so a complete reboot is needed? | 03:35 |

| Chambers` | any ideas? | 04:49 |
| Tm_T | apokryphos: nah, no need for that kind of "bling" | 04:49 |
| apokryphos | heh | 04:49 |
| Tm_T | StR: any ideas how to get those apps compiled? | 04:49 |
| jjesse | Chambers`: it was under one of the sections it asked for my global catalog server | 04:50 |
| jjesse | which is how i had it working in hoary | 04:51 |
| Chambers` | but in the Gnome Evolution Manual, my app doesn't even look like how they have it | 04:52 |
| gdh | Chambers: You're really in the wrong place for Evo questions.. | 04:52 |
| Chambers` | in the manual, when you pick Exchange as a server type, it asks for a username, OWA URL, and password. Mine only shows username and the ok button is greyed out | 04:52 |
| gdh | #ubuntu or #gnome .. or maybe even #evolution if it exists? | 04:53 |
| Chambers` | yeah, i asked in ubuntu and gnome already :/ | 04:53 |
| jjesse | Chambers`: i'm checking my fresh install of preview, hold on let me see if i can get it setup again | 04:53 |
| Chambers` | it's like the one big feature of evo and no one even uses it..hehe | 04:53 |
| Chambers` | thanks jjesse | 04:53 |
| jjesse | no one in #evolution | 04:54 |

| gdh | I've been fortunate enough not ever to have used Exchange, I think :) | 04:54 |
| jjesse | i like the groupware setup for exchange it is an easy product i have found to admin and setup | 04:55 |

| === FallenHitokiri [n=FallenHi@p54ACF9C3.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nikkia | Chambers_: yeah, its because the 'free' unrar doesn't support all compression methods from unrar-nonfree | 05:19 |
| Chambers` | do you have par2 files? check the rar | 05:20 |
| nikkia | either that, or its password protected | 05:20 |
| crtr | no | 05:20 |
| crtr | there?? only one file | 05:20 |
| Chambers` | the console won't ask for a password if that's the case? | 05:20 |
| crtr | .srt | 05:20 |
| nikkia | Chambers_: in nonfree unrar, yes, in free unrar, no | 05:20 |
| Chambers` | redownload | 05:20 |
| nikkia | free unrar is practically useless, IMO | 05:20 |
| === blackflag [n=stefan@p54ABFF5A.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| vieirar | Not sure if this is a known issue. But I am using an onboard ATI graphics card. Whenever I move a window or start a program. During the draw/redraw CPU utilization jumps to 100%. | 05:22 |
| Chambers` | nikkia: so unrar won't ask for password if protected? | 05:22 |
| nikkia | Chambers_: the 'free' unrar, doesn't do a lot of things, as i said, its practically useless | 05:22 |
| vieirar | Also whenever I am accessing the HDD cpu utilization jumps to 100%. The chipset I am using is ATI SB400. Any clues or help. My system is Kubuntu AMD64. | 05:23 |
| nikkia | Chambers_: basically, if you're using someone else's rar files, they'll be compressed with a newer method, or encrypted, and you need unrar-nonfree (which is still 'free' just not 'Free') | 05:23 |

| buz | not without a lot of trouble | 05:41 |
| Chousuke | This has nothing to do with kubuntu | 05:41 |

| seth_k | then you're stuck, kthxbai | 05:43 |
| blackflag | like apt | 05:43 |
| seth_k | seriously, if you try to manually resolve RPM deps, it's a huge pain | 05:43 |
| buz | suse is like the winme of linux | 05:43 |
| blackflag | where I say go to this server and get the software and solve dpendencies | 05:43 |
| blackflag | and install also necessary files | 05:44 |
| buz | dude, go to a suse channel | 05:44 |
| buz | (one would think that'd be kinda obvious) | 05:44 |
| blackflag | seth_k: is there a way todo it automatic? | 05:45 |
| seth_k | no, because SuSE's package management sucks | 05:46 |
| seth_k | especially if you have no net access | 05:46 |
| blackflag | okay, that was what I want to know | 05:46 |
| seth_k | SuSE has no apt-zip or anything that would help you | 05:46 |
| blackflag | cause I'm thinking I do something wrong | 05:46 |
| seth_k | (apt-zip pwns, btw) | 05:47 |
| blackflag | then there is suse a very static system?! | 05:47 |
| buz | !apt-zip | 05:47 |
| ubotu | buz: Did you get hit by a windmill? | 05:47 |
| seth_k | !info apt-zip | 05:48 |

| buz | ah i dont care for that ;) | 05:48 |
| seth_k | haha but it's good for those who are on dial-up at home or something ;) | 05:48 |
| buz | thankfully, i havent been on dialup since 2000 | 05:48 |
| seth_k | mm | 05:48 |
| nalioth | buz: it's !info <packagename> <distro (optional)> | 05:49 |
| buz | and i'm not gonna ever go back to it ;) | 05:49 |
| troy | buz: oh, but it's so... fun | 05:49 |
| seth_k | blackflag, SuSE's package management is just terrible, and if you want to use SuSE you're going to have to get used to the idea that you won't be updating much | 05:49 |
| seth_k | 10x so if you don't have the interwebnet | 05:49 |
| seth_k | anyways, lunchtime | 05:49 |

| seth_k | gaim should be set to use arts | 06:53 |
| XHK | in gnome its set on esd and works... | 06:54 |
| XHK | but ill try | 06:54 |
| seth_k | of course. Gnome uses esd. KDE does not | 06:56 |
| seth_k | hence my telling you to "sudo killall esd && artsd" | 06:56 |
| seth_k | Riddell, do we file bugs on KDE 3.5 beta in bugzilla? | 06:57 |

| seth_k | ok | 06:58 |
| seth_k | that's good | 06:58 |

| kkathman | I dont blame you | 07:49 |
| Floker | hehe | 07:49 |
| Floker | youre right | 07:49 |
| kkathman | Linux is pretty slow when it comes to new tech | 07:49 |
| kkathman | unless the manufacturer is committed to open source | 07:50 |
| kkathman | but this is something we accept over time | 07:50 |
| Floker | lirc is different | 07:50 |
| Floker | its build entirely on linux | 07:50 |
| Floker | and it has its own hardware specs | 07:50 |
| kkathman | ahhh good excellent, Im not familiar with it | 07:50 |
| Floker | so you need to use a lirc-enabled reciever | 07:51 |
| kkathman | it should work just fine then I'd suppose | 07:51 |
| Floker | yes me too =) | 07:51 |
| kkathman | perhaps you'll want to validate kernel compatibility, or restrictions | 07:51 |
| kkathman | but its probably ok | 07:51 |
| Floker | i never compiled a kernel or smt like that | 07:51 |
| kkathman | nah you shouldnt have to I'd think | 07:52 |
| Floker | i know how to compile apps, but it does not work in all cases | 07:52 |
| Floker | back in the days i was a windows developer | 07:52 |
| Floker | i was good | 07:52 |
| kkathman | you might check to see if the drivers are distrib in deb formats...I would suspect they will be along with RPMs etc | 07:52 |
| Floker | now everything is different | 07:52 |
| kkathman | Floker: yah I hear ya | 07:52 |
| Floker | i already installed lirc and stuff | 07:52 |
| kkathman | even windows isnt as easy as it once was | 07:53 |
| Floker | yes rite, but i developed in ObjectPascal, which is barely supported in linux | 07:53 |
| kkathman | once they went to the registry, things got overly complicated | 07:53 |
| Floker | (actually, the support is poor) | 07:53 |
| kkathman | Object Pascal...nice :) | 07:53 |
| kkathman | I can remember those days a bit..long since gone tho | 07:54 |
| kkathman | I dont know if you remember TurboPascal | 07:54 |
| Floker | yes i do =) | 07:54 |
| kkathman | that was such an easy to use environment :) | 07:54 |
| Floker | i programmed an IDE for Pascal | 07:54 |
| Floker | for windows | 07:54 |
| kkathman | kewl :) | 07:54 |
| kkathman | I date myself, obviously :) | 07:55 |
| Floker | kinda good, but my c++ skills are, well, not present =) | 07:55 |
| Floker | hehe | 07:55 |

| kkathman | but I'd hate to make a long term career out of it | 08:00 |
| kkathman | glut - way too many people | 08:00 |

| Floker | woh, damn | 08:11 |
| kkathman | because of the unions | 08:11 |
| Floker | is it that bad, i mean, the kids' education, respect and kindness and stuff? | 08:12 |
| kkathman | if they did the things they did in a corporate environment, they would be fired in a second | 08:12 |
| Floker | thank god i dont have to work (yet) | 08:12 |
| kkathman | Floker: I'd say this...education in the US is not a problem because of teachers, really, with exceptions... | 08:12 |
| nalioth | Floker: ist gut mehr im deutchland | 08:13 |
| Floker | lol =) | 08:13 |
| kkathman | It is a problem with the home environments and the state school boards that are academics and politicians | 08:13 |
| kkathman | there are GOOD schools, and GOOD teachers in many districts | 08:14 |
| Floker | like here | 08:14 |
| nalioth | kkathman: but the state doesnt let them teach | 08:14 |
| Floker | but the good schools are the majority | 08:14 |
| kkathman | but they are many time restricted by the state | 08:14 |
| kkathman | yes nalioth | 08:14 |
| Floker | the problems of germany go way more far (i am unsure if this sentence is correct) | 08:15 |
| === nalioth suspects we will be a nation of dummkopfs in 20 years | ||
| Floker | lol =) | 08:15 |
| Floker | germany has got 12% unemployed | 08:15 |
| kkathman | Good example: There is a young boy in one of my wife's classes...he has autism and cannot behave. Screams...lies on the floor and kicks..(5th grader), threatens to kill other kids and the teacher | 08:15 |
| Floker | and he goes to a PUBLIC SCHOOL? | 08:15 |
| kkathman | yet there is NOTHING they can do about it...by state law, he MUST be mainstreamed (placed in the same class as his peers) | 08:16 |
| kkathman | and thats as a result of a Federal act called "No Child Left Behind" | 08:16 |
| kkathman | even though the psychologists say that it damages the child and the others in the classroom!! | 08:16 |
| Floker | he would have to go to an E-School (for children with educational difficulties) | 08:16 |
| Floker | what kind of act is this, i mean, do they (the administration) actually care about the children? | 08:17 |
| Leshrac | I doubt it | 08:17 |
| kkathman | Floker: well if he was "normal" and acted up, he would go to another school, but only after 3 reported incidents, a conclave of teachers, counselors and doctors, and finally if the parents say so | 08:17 |
| Leshrac | no one cares about anything, that's the spirit of humanity | 08:18 |
| kkathman | its silly and goes against common sense | 08:18 |
| kkathman | but | 08:18 |
| Floker | sounds bad and sad | 08:18 |
| pussfeller | another scnario is where they refuse to "mainstream" kids with difficulties becuase they get more money per special student | 08:18 |
| kkathman | the "Act" had a spirit of improving education, but as usual, got politically corrupted | 08:18 |

| kkathman | nalioth: Im still hoping for the day when Texas can secede from the Union finally and be done with it :) | 08:19 |
| kkathman | Then we can get back to normal :) | 08:19 |
| kkathman | pussfeller: correct on that | 08:19 |
| Floker | we have an act in germany, which reforms the unemployment-law. its called "hartz4" (invented by dr. hartz - ceo of VW or smt) | 08:19 |
| nalioth | kkathman: one of those damned presidents threw a wrench into that, but it's a nice thought | 08:19 |
| kkathman | and here's the fun part...its impossible to fail a child anymore | 08:19 |
| kkathman | you can "hold him back" ONCE | 08:20 |
| Floker | that means if you are workless, you gett a few bucks and you have to work for 1? per hour, until you find work | 08:20 |
| kkathman | but thats it | 08:20 |
| Floker | i mean you _have to_ work for 1?/h | 08:20 |
| kkathman | so you just have these kids that dont care, and know that they | 08:20 |
| pussfeller | i thot about being a teacher under this new lateral entry program they have | 08:20 |
| kkathman | will pass anyway | 08:20 |
| pussfeller | but i dont know if i could last, cause i would pass very few of the kids | 08:20 |
| kkathman | they go on through...then fail their tests at the end and end up working at McDonalds uttering meaniful phrases such as "You want fries wit dat? | 08:21 |
| Floker | omg | 08:21 |
| Floker | at least they have work | 08:21 |
| pussfeller | heh | 08:21 |
| Floker | you got barely a wellfare over there right? | 08:21 |
| kkathman | fortunately, we live in a district that has a 98% graduation rate, and of those over 80% apply to college and get accepted | 08:22 |
| pussfeller | we have way too much welfare here | 08:22 |
| Floker | thats what we call "klassenkampf" (the battle of the classes) | 08:22 |
| kkathman | so there ARE exemplary school districts, but they are just the correct mix of having decent teachers, higher income, EDUCATED families | 08:22 |
| Floker | so you live somewhere, and - by chance - you get a good education.. | 08:23 |

| kkathman | Floker: well, you live somewhere you can afford | 08:23 |
| Floker | this is quite different from the "amercan dream" | 08:23 |
| pussfeller | nah, its more like, if your parents are motivated for you, you will get an education regardless of where you are | 08:23 |
| kkathman | the more affluent can afford to live in the better districts perhaps | 08:23 |
| kkathman | pussfeller: thats true also | 08:23 |
| pussfeller | but some places are obviously better than others | 08:23 |
| spiral | hi | 08:24 |
| kkathman | its really is a function of education and desire of the parents | 08:24 |
| kkathman | if the parents have the attitude that they want something BETTER for their kids, even if they arent majorly educated, that makes a HUGE difference | 08:24 |
| pussfeller | its so funny how homeschoolers and private schools can deliver so much better results while spending way less per child | 08:25 |
| kkathman | but some parents just dont want that for their kids...and THATS sad | 08:25 |
| Floker | in ger. the teachers of elementary school decide about your further career (if you go to the "hauptschule" (worse) "gesamtschule" (good) or the Gymnasium (even better)) | 08:25 |
| othernoob | and they send the message that they hate their life kkathman ... | 08:25 |
| kkathman | othernoob: or worse, which is the message that says "Its NOT your fault...its the system" | 08:25 |

| kkathman | no personal responsibility | 08:25 |
| Floker | omg. i think school should be fun | 08:25 |
| pussfeller | in america, theres unfortunately a willfully ignorant underclass that despises learning | 08:25 |

| kkathman | pussfeller: its real easy to portray a peachy picture when the government censors everything you say and do :) | 08:30 |
| kkathman | pussfeller: my son had a Chinese business woman come to his graduate class in International Bussiness and proceede to tell them that China was a democracy and not what others say it is | 08:31 |

| Floker | othernoob: i thin the npd is not a democratic party | 08:33 |

| arthurb | saw your screen, problem fixed | 11:06 |

| stupendo4 | after you log out, I think | 11:13 |
| johan | I will intsall kde beta 3.5.1 or whatever it is called now, see if that fixes it, I was still thinking of doing that | 11:13 |
| johan | I've added the respository, is the kde beta still called just "kde"? | 11:14 |
| apokryphos | what's the problem? | 11:14 |
| johan | that I can't move anything more than 80% left, on the panels | 11:14 |
| apokryphos | kicker? | 11:15 |
| johan | yeah, if that is what the panels are made of | 11:15 |
| apokryphos | kicker is the kde panel | 11:15 |

| johan | you think a upgrade to kde 3.5 beta will solve it? I was still thinking of it | 11:16 |
| apokryphos | if you can't move things more than 80% a certain way.. are you sure you haven't configured it to take up only 80%? | 11:16 |
| apokryphos | I wouldn't think it was a bug.. | 11:16 |
| johan | I've tried everything from 1-100%, and both checked and unchecked the extend thing | 11:16 |
| stupendo4 | is it filling the wholw space at the bottom? | 11:17 |
| XHK | I dont have sounds in kde | 11:17 |
| johan | if I want it to, hes | 11:17 |
| apokryphos | johan: have you tried restarting kicker after you resized it? | 11:17 |
| apokryphos | johan: and what things are you trying to move? | 11:17 |
| johan | how do I do that? as in regular ubuntu? ctrl-alt-backspace | 11:17 |
| apokryphos | johan: nope; dcop kicker kicker restart | 11:18 |
| johan | I've tried kde-menu, some shortcuys, xeyes, and some think | 11:18 |
| johan | okay, wish me luck | 11:18 |
| apokryphos | johan: try pressing alt+mousedrag | 11:18 |
| johan | that solved it :) | 11:18 |
| apokryphos | ah | 11:18 |
| johan | dcop think solved it, what does it do? restart the process? | 11:18 |
| seaLne | it talks to kicker and tells it to restart | 11:18 |
| johan | okay | 11:19 |
| johan | thanks everybody involved | 11:19 |
| apokryphos | DCOP is just a desktop communication protocol (unbelievably useful to programmers, and many configuring users :P) | 11:19 |
