Rogue_Jedi_X[NetSkier: I've heard success stories about OpenWengo as well. Not speaking from experience, though12:04
phoenixbyrdyea, u can get it from kynaptic12:04
Rogue_Jedi_X_gdh: Didn't know that12:04

_gdhA very pleasant KDE-based package manager12:17
_gdh*frontend for apt12:17
[NetSkierThanks.  I am already pretty familiar with apt.12:18
[NetSkierTook quite a while though.12:18
[NetSkieryears, actually12:19
[NetSkierLooks like I need to add some entries to my sources list to get an IAX2 softphone.12:20
[NetSkierWhat version of regular Debian does Kubuntu correspond?  Stable, testing,unstable, experimental?12:20
[NetSkierapt-cache search iax2 finds nothing with the stock Kubuntu sources.list.12:21
drom1n4d0stable12:21
drom1n4d0experimental is the 4.1012:22
Blissex[NetSkier: I think that using those ''levels'' is wrong.12:23
[NetSkieropenwengo btw is a sip client.12:23
Blissex[NetSkier: because two of them change with time.12:23
Blissex[NetSkier: currently the 'stable' level is the version called Sarge and the 'testing' level is the version called Etch.12:23
[NetSkierBlissex, I usually run a mixture of testing/unstable; I am a Kubuntu newbie.12:24
=== kevman [i=Kevin@205.146.51.210] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"]
Blissex[NetSkier: broadly speaking Ubuntu Hoary is roughly compatible with Debian Sarge and Ubuntu Breezy with Debian Etch.12:24
[NetSkierBlissex, thanks; that helps.12:24
worstenboydamn12:25
Blissex[NetSkier: as a rule never refer to Debian versions, especially in 'sources.list', by their level names, always use the version names.12:25
worstenboyother irc client crashed12:25
worstenboybut i'm still here ;)12:25
[NetSkierBlissex, why?12:25
Blissex[NetSkier: as I mentioned before, because what corresponds to the levels 'stable' and 'testing' changes with time. They are states, not versions.12:25
[NetSkierBy using level names, I never have to change them, year after year.12:26
Blissex[NetSkier: but what you have changes dramatically on a release changeover.12:26
[NetSkiersure; I do an apt-get dist-upgrade at that point.12:26
Blissex[NetSkier: which can be pretty dangerous. Since Ubuntu and Kubuntu release every six months, they don't use level names...12:27
Blissex[NetSkier: a 'dist-upgrade' is safe only if you don't have nonstandard packages. A release changeover has to be considered carefully...12:27
Blissex[NetSkier: however, eventually the force will enligthen you :-).12:27
[NetSkierBlissex, ok; sounds good.12:28
Blissex[NetSkier: in the meantime you might want to study the dangerous tomes here: http://WWW.sabi.co.UK/Cfg/APT/ for the thrill of having mixed Debian/Ubuntu sources and levels.12:28
[NetSkierBlissex, The main problem I see with dist-upgrade is having to remember to remove the unstable sources, or else one can go all the way to unstable12:28
Blissex[NetSkier: but never yield to the temptation of the dark side of the APT.12:29
=== Flying_Eagle [n=f_e@pD95347A6.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu
Blissex[NetSkier: it is far subtler than that. 12:29
Blissex[NetSkier: the problem is that on a release changeover there are usually several ABI changeovers, and if you have installed nonstandard packages, this can cause a lot of problems.12:29
[NetSkierI just run the regular packages from the regular Debian repostitores.12:29
[NetSkierI avoid the nonstandard packages for that reason.12:30
Blissex[NetSkier: but avoiding nonstandard packages is awesomely difficult, for example because of media codes that cannot be part of Debian... 12:31

phoenixbyrdin adept, what does BREAK (install) mean?12:33
Blissexsatafterh: Ubuntu and Kubuntu are exactly the same thing...12:35
Blissexsatafterh: what you probably want to change is to have KDE instead of GNOME as the default desktop environment. Is that the case?12:36

phoenixbyrdI want to install superkaramba from adept, but it says in red letter's BREAK (install) ... is that ok or bad?12:39
Blissexphoenixbyrd: BAD.12:39
satafterhI think so, the one that was not there in earlier version12:39
phoenixbyrdok12:39
Blissexsatafterh: well, I dont know -- but I would be fairly sure that there is a Kubuntu boot splash package, or there is something on the Wiki that says how to do it.12:40
phoenixbyrdwhy is it bad, cuz even karamba is doing it :(12:40
Blissexsatafterh: I do my boot in text mode, without the boot splash coolness :-).12:40

crimsunyou can run them simultaneously on different heads, too01:46

Geno_I first tried KDE iwht Fedora Core 4 and chose GNOME instead, but I want to try it again since I prefer Ubuntu02:04
kkathmanI hope it migrates as easy :)02:04
phoenixbyrdrealplayer in kynaptic, is that realplayer 10?02:04
Geno_I'm still a Linux newbie, so Ubuntu is great02:04
kkathmanGeno_: Actually, I think that it is more reliable to actually install the base Ubuntu with Gnome, and then do the apt-get kubuntu-desktop02:05
Geno_ok02:05
kkathmanthat way you always have a backup GUI if something odd happens02:05
Geno_What is the big difference between Kubuntu and Ubuntu? Besides KDE and Gnome, and the KDE packages...02:05
kkathmanGeno_: Kubunti is really just the base Ubuntu with the KDU Gui02:06
kkathmanoops Kubuntu I mean02:06
Geno_oh02:06
Geno_So that it can be made easier for users that just want KDE to have it without Gnome?02:07
kkathmanEverything in the KDE ... all the programs will start with K 02:07
TokenBadcrimsun, sorry for delay its all irc networks02:07
kkathmanhence Kubuntu02:07
Geno_ugh02:07
kkathmanGeno_: For instance the KDE IRC is Konversation, the browser is Konqueror, the Contact Manager is Kontact02:08
kkathmanetc02:08
Geno_ok02:08
Geno_I still wonder if I will prefer KDE02:08
kkathmanKDE is very good as long as you have the resources to run it02:09
kkathmanits my preferred GUI02:09
Geno_I don't like the idea of all K programs made for KDE, I don't know why02:09
kkathmanbut I have two smaller memory computers that I run other GUIs on02:09
Geno_Gnome is customizable great but there's not a lot to customize from what I'Ve seen02:09
Geno_ok02:09
kkathmanGeno_: If you install base Ubuntu with Gnome, and then do an Apt-get kubuntu-desktop you can run all Gnome progs under KDE02:10
TokenBadhow come on all irc networks they can't get my ident02:10
TokenBadeven though installed xidentd?02:10
Geno_I know they can run it but I just don't like the idea of K programs02:10
kkathmanGeno_: there is much much more to customize in KDE...the options are endless and its much easier in many cases to configure things02:10

kkathmanthings are definitely more easy to configure under KDE I think02:12
kkathmanGeno_: Yes KDE is very easy and very customizable02:12
kkathmanIt allows for multiple desktops also02:13
Geno_Putting aside the fact that you use it everyday, is it more user-friendly for users who can even barely understand Windows%02:14
kkathmanGeno_: I'd say yes, mainly because when there are things to be configured, say a printer, KDE has alot of wizards that will help you do that02:14

Geno_As long as I work with VB.NET i'll stick with Windows for that02:23
kkathmanI assume it is02:23
Riddellkkathman: make sure there's no obvious major problems, if you could test installing a non-english language that would be good02:24
Hobbseeyeah, it looks to be02:24
StRGeno_: and you can even have someone developing something (like a dll) in mono, and it will work in the .net in the other OS02:24
Geno_if Cedega was free, it'd have switched long ago02:24
RiddellHobbsee: yes, 20051006 CDs should become RC if all goes well02:24
Riddellkkathman: this is the candidate for the breezy release candidate02:24
kkathmanRIddell: Well I could test a non-english version but I probably wouldnt be able to understand the screens :)02:24
StRGeno_: you can get cedega for free (as in libre, not as in cracked)02:24
HobbseeRiddell: excellent.  Do you know if all the localisations are done? 02:24
Riddellkkathman: that would be a good thing, it would mean the language was set up correctly :)02:24
Hobbseein particular, the en (au) one?02:24

Geno_I've downloaded both Ubuntu 5.10 live and install today very fast with it02:52
Geno_I think so02:52
Geno_I'm not familiar with hacking02:52
Geno_It went as fast as downloading from the server(maybe faster when there was a lot of people) and it didn't use the server02:53
Hobbseei usually grab it off an aussie mirror with a download accelerator, or off my ISP's unmetered download site02:53

Geno_I used Partition Magic to install it and then, trying to repair my error, bugged it even more, I know how to repair it now. I will NEVER used PM again for Linux03:34
Geno_I had just finisehd reinstalling everything on Windows and then I messed it all up a few minutes after03:35

nikkiaafteraf, its apple's fault if any, their *book keyboards are non-standard layout, slightly10:12
nikkiabut i will admit that its perhaps a 'bug' in X that the keymaps don't compensate for this by mapping the apple 'modified' ways of getting common characters10:12

spiralRiddell: did you find where the problem was with amaroK 1.3.2 not 2;1.3.2 ?11:41
Riddellspiral: bad packaging I presume, no time just now I'm afraid11:41
spiralRiddell: all right, is there a way I can rebuild it myself ?11:42
Riddellspiral: grab the .orig, .diff, .dsc  dpkg-source -x *dsc  cd amarok-1.3.2, debuild11:42
Riddellfix debian/changelog before building11:42
danPlease help - I installed kubuntu preview over 5.10 but my panel and desktop are still gnome/ubuntu.  How do I change them to KDE?11:42
spiralRiddell: could you please tell me the adress again ?11:43
Blissexdan: thats very unlikely...11:43
Blissexdan: you probably are still logging into GNOME.11:43
Riddellspiral: kubuntu.org/~jr/amarok11:43
danhmmmm, let me make sure of that.  Thanks.11:43
Blissexdan: when you login there should be  a menu to select the sessions type, make sure KDE is selected.11:43
spiralRiddell: thanks11:43
danBlissex:  Will go try.  Thanks.11:44
