| Fuji-san | KDE looks like a xp | 03:55 |
| Hobbsee | only cos it has one menu bar, and not 2 | 03:56 |

| hydrogen | 1.3.5 is bugfixes | 04:57 |
| hydrogen | bigbugfixes | 04:57 |
| nalioth | Riddell: it compiles and runs fine on ppc (amarok 1.3.5) | 04:57 |
| Hobbsee | Riddell: same with x86, kde 3.5 beta1 | 04:57 |
| Riddell | nalioth: groovy, want me to upload them? | 04:57 |
| Riddell | Hobbsee: same what? | 04:58 |
| nalioth | Riddell: i didnt use pbuilder | 04:58 |
| satempler | well 3.5 made arts errors | 04:58 |
| satempler | I saw the downgrade link | 04:58 |
| Hobbsee | Riddell: as in, same runs fine, on x86, with the new link, kde 3.5 beta1 | 04:58 |
| satempler | is there a way to upgrade to 3.5 without arts | 04:58 |
| Riddell | Hobbsee: cool :) | 04:58 |
| Hobbsee | got a message the first time about not finding the engine, restarted amarok, works fine | 04:59 |
| Riddell | satempler: who uses arn't anyway, let it crash :) | 04:59 |
| Hobbsee | LOL | 04:59 |
| nalioth | Riddell: i know almost nothing about making debian pkgs | 04:59 |
| Hobbsee | Riddell: well, is there somethign else better than arts to use? | 04:59 |
| nalioth | (if someone can send me to a howto for dummies, i'd appreciate it) | 04:59 |
| Riddell | Hobbsee: kaffeine and amarok just use gstreamer | 04:59 |
| hydrogen | -fvisibility is broken again with 3.5 according to flameeyes | 04:59 |
| satempler | Riddell: any one using kde right | 04:59 |
| hydrogen | s/broken again/still broken | 05:00 |
| Hobbsee | Riddell: yeah, i knew that...i was actually wondering about a way to not have to use arts for anthing, including knotify and all that | 05:00 |
| hydrogen | nah | 05:00 |
| hydrogen | not possible | 05:00 |
| Hobbsee | pity | 05:00 |
| hydrogen | well | 05:00 |
| hydrogen | for kde 4 | 05:01 |
| Riddell | actually suse doesn't use arts | 05:01 |
| hydrogen | when kdemm takes over | 05:01 |
| hydrogen | OH SHUSH and let me feel right for once! | 05:01 |
| hydrogen | :) | 05:01 |
| satempler | why is every thing going with gstreamer it sucks | 05:01 |
| hydrogen | cause it plays everything? | 05:01 |

| seth_k | 3.5 is making arts errors for me too | 05:02 |
| hydrogen | yea | 05:02 |
| hydrogen | thats the fvisibility bug | 05:02 |
| seth_k | I had to chmod arts to 000 to get it to stop | 05:02 |
| hydrogen | arts errors being crashes? | 05:02 |
| satempler | Hobbsee: suse uses gstreamer or xine | 05:02 |
| seth_k | even disabling the sound system didn't work | 05:02 |
| seth_k | yeah, crashes every 2 seconds | 05:02 |

| seth_k | although now that I think about it | 05:02 |
| hydrogen | blame qt/kde :) | 05:02 |
| satempler | seth_k: they said to downgrade arts untill a fix is made | 05:03 |
| seth_k | how am I playing music right now? | 05:03 |
| Hobbsee | seth_k: by using gstreamer, not artsd | 05:03 |
| satempler | must not be using arts | 05:03 |
| seth_k | oh right | 05:03 |
| satempler | esd or alsa | 05:03 |
| seth_k | gstreamer | 05:03 |
| satempler | gstreamer even | 05:03 |

| Hobbsee | Sonny_Wertzik: place a system link in ~/.kde/Autostart | 05:05 |

| Hobbsee | hehe | 05:05 |
| seth_k | and me using windows terms like shortcut | 05:05 |
| Sonny_Wertzik | ahhh thanks guys | 05:05 |
| seth_k | regeya_, yes I did that first | 05:05 |
| seth_k | but that didn't help the crashes | 05:05 |
| m_tadeu | Sonny_Wertzik: place links to the apps in ~/.kde/Autostart | 05:05 |
| regeya_ | uh | 05:06 |
| regeya_ | how can something a.) not be running and b.) crash, all at the same time... | 05:06 |
| Sonny_Wertzik | m_tadeu, thx | 05:06 |
| frank23 | I wanted to Alt-Ctrl-Backspace in vmware. Guess what I ended up doing! | 05:06 |
| seth_k | no idea. Maybe the disabling didn't work? | 05:06 |
| regeya_ | lol frank23 | 05:06 |
| seth_k | but all I know was that unchecking the box and hitting apply | 05:06 |
| Hobbsee | regeya_: easy, something else using it instead | 05:06 |
| seth_k | didn't make it stop crashing | 05:06 |
| satempler | seth_k: so that makes it so it dosn't run right ? | 05:06 |
| seth_k | and CHMOD'ing it did | 05:06 |
| seth_k | satempler, right | 05:06 |
| Hobbsee | seth_k: try killing off knotify next time you have that... | 05:06 |

| Fuji-san | So does xp use open source aswell? | 05:07 |
| seth_k | Hobbsee, yeah if I would've thought a bit more I would've looked to see what was using it | 05:07 |
| seth_k | but I got annoyed with crash / 2 sec | 05:07 |
| Hobbsee | hehe | 05:07 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 05:07 |
| seth_k | so found first solution I could think of | 05:07 |
| seth_k | ;) | 05:07 |
| satempler | seth_k: well I thing downgrading is better | 05:07 |
| Hobbsee | tell me about it...had that for a while.. | 05:07 |
| regeya_ | seth_k: if you use apps that require artsd, artsd will be spawned. sad but true. | 05:07 |
| kkathman | good evening all :) | 05:07 |
| === regeya_ notes that part of the reason he uses amaroK is b/c it doesn't *require* artsd | ||

| Hobbsee | hi kkathman! | 05:08 |
| kkathman | hey Hobbsee :) | 05:08 |
| kkathman | What's new tonight? | 05:09 |
| Hobbsee | kkathman: testing amarok 1.3.5, apart from that, not a lot | 05:10 |
| kkathman | ahhh ok | 05:10 |
| Fuji-san | Whats the difference between the freesoftware movement and the opensource community? | 05:10 |
| kkathman | how is it? | 05:10 |
| Hobbsee | quicker to get than a cd lol | 05:10 |
| seth_k | Fuji-san, #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:11 |
| Hobbsee | it's nice, works without a problem now | 05:11 |
| seth_k | stick to KDE / Kubuntu questions in here | 05:11 |
| kkathman | ohh puhlease :) | 05:11 |
| seth_k | kkathman, Fuji-san has already been banned from 4 ubuntu channels tonight :) | 05:11 |
| satempler | ok I told adept to do an full upgrade and unmarked arts and the arts libs | 05:11 |
| Fuji-san | seth_k i wanted to know it so i can place ubuntu in a category | 05:11 |
| satempler | see what that dose | 05:11 |
| kkathman | its supposed to be a friendly channel...its kewl | 05:12 |
| kkathman | as long as their isnt any abuse | 05:12 |
| kkathman | hehe | 05:12 |
| satempler | any one still having problems with VMware | 05:12 |
| Hobbsee | kkathman: yeah, it's quiet enough to allow general chat too | 05:12 |
| seth_k | I wish Adept could grab changelogs la Synaptic | 05:12 |
| Fuji-san | lol | 05:12 |
| kkathman | exactly | 05:12 |
| seth_k | as of now I still use Synaptic | 05:12 |
| satempler | I am trying to go all kde | 05:12 |
| Hobbsee | i was using synaptic before, till i reinstalled a week or so ago...might have been slightly longer | 05:13 |
| satempler | though I use vmware most of my stuff is kde | 05:13 |
| Fuji-san | seth_k if the people didnt have opensource there would be a topic to begin with :) | 05:13 |
| kkathman | satempler: Adept is at the first release...it'll grow :) | 05:13 |
| Fuji-san | wouldnt* | 05:13 |
| Fuji-san | You thank your topic to my question,,, | 05:13 |
| flixor-sleeping | kkathman, thanks for a couple of hours ago for the help | 05:13 |
| kkathman | Hobbsee: yah..I still gander at kynaptic occasionally | 05:13 |
| nalioth | open source ONLY gets better with each iteration | 05:13 |
| satempler | kkathman: ya I am shure it will but its way better than kynaptic | 05:13 |
| kkathman | flixor-sleeping: hey no prob...sorry I couldnt help more :) | 05:14 |
| regeya_ | Fuji-san: true, but this isn't exactly a forum for general open-source talk :) | 05:14 |
| flixor-sleeping | no you helped me a lot | 05:14 |
| flixor-sleeping | by pointing me to that aritcle | 05:14 |
| satempler | at least with adept I get discriptions in kynaptic i get on liner tool tips | 05:14 |
| kkathman | ahh kynaptic aint that bad...I like the way things are organized...then I use apt-get :) | 05:14 |
| flixor-sleeping | because now my printer is working again it seemed that i had to change some config files | 05:14 |

| flixor-sleeping | yeah you too | 05:15 |
| kkathman | ahh Hobbsee you got more experience in all this than most...you'll get it workin :) | 05:15 |
| Fuji-san | How big is the kubuntu community? | 05:16 |
| Hobbsee | kkathman: hah...in some things, yes, in others, not at all | 05:16 |
| satempler | why can't they make a Package manager with google speed | 05:16 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: whats the problem ? doesn't the KPrinter setup wizard help ? | 05:16 |
| kkathman | Shoot I got MINE to work through cups no less :) | 05:16 |
| kkathman | insanekane: worked for me | 05:16 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: it's a hp deskjet 500, connects via a parallel port | 05:16 |
| insanekane | kkathman: mine too | 05:16 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: ok ... so ? | 05:16 |
| Hobbsee | kprinter doesnt find anything in the parallel port | 05:16 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: i don't think its supposed to see anything | 05:16 |
| kkathman | Hobbsee flixor-sleeping had an HP that didnt have a stated driver...and I found an article for him...so I have hope for ya | 05:17 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: i don't think its supposed to find anything | 05:17 |
| Hobbsee | right... | 05:17 |
| Hobbsee | then how is it supposed to configure? | 05:17 |
| kkathman | but that 500 is kinda old tho :) | 05:17 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: simply hit continue after selecting the appropriate parallel port ? | 05:17 |
| kkathman | yah the wizard is great | 05:18 |
| Hobbsee | there's only 1 parallel port, and it gives me an error dialog saying "empty uri" | 05:18 |
| Hobbsee | it is, for smb printers - find's the other one fine | 05:18 |
| Fuji-san | Does the kubuntu community have installfests? | 05:18 |

| Fuji-san | ;) | 05:19 |
| insanekane | hmm | 05:19 |
| Hobbsee | yeah, i've always thought it was weird! | 05:20 |
| Fuji-san | LOL | 05:20 |
| Hobbsee | it detected something during the install, as it installed the HP imaging and printing thingo.. | 05:20 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: thats something more generic ... just made by HP | 05:20 |
| Hobbsee | HP linux printing and imaging system, and that starts everything on boot | 05:20 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: i have it too ... though no HP in sight :) | 05:20 |
| Hobbsee | right, but that probably also means that it knows there's something HP related in the port... | 05:20 |
| Hobbsee | oh ok... | 05:21 |
| Hobbsee | i didnt see that on my hoary installs, not sur ewhy | 05:21 |
| logikal | Hobbsee, do you have embedded movies working? | 05:21 |
| logikal | In FireFox ? | 05:21 |
| Hobbsee | logikal: i did a while ago, i dont think i've configured it to do so again | 05:21 |
| Fuji-san | Mircrosoft used the existence linux(so also kubuntu as 1 of the linux distributions) as a defence in their monopoly case.. to state that they don't have a monopoly :) | 05:21 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: it's not *that* big a deal if it refuses to work, but it would be nice if it did work | 05:22 |
| kkathman | Fuji-san: yep they did...along with the Mac OS too and others. | 05:22 |
| Hobbsee | there is another printer connected to a computer in another room, so i can still print to there (while it's on) | 05:22 |
| Hobbsee | or i can boot to windows if i want to print something really long on that computer | 05:23 |
| Hobbsee | *on that printer, i mean | 05:23 |
| kkathman | Hobbsee: I guess I was lucky. I have one printer attached to a winbox, and cups just found it and configured it with no problem :) | 05:23 |
| Hobbsee | kkathman: same here - that one configured just fine | 05:23 |
| Hobbsee | configures every single time | 05:23 |
| kkathman | yep | 05:24 |
| Fuji-san | Could a company like microsoft make a own linux distribution? | 05:24 |
| Hobbsee | well, you say autonomous while scanning, it gives an error about NT denied, then you hit back, go anonymous, and then scan and it works fine | 05:24 |
| nalioth | Fuji-san: if they wished to, yes | 05:24 |
| kkathman | Fuji-san: sure...but I doubt they would | 05:24 |
| kkathman | IBM teamed with RedHat I believe...so did Dell | 05:25 |
| Fuji-san | yer | 05:25 |
| kkathman | it would be more likely, if it ever happened, that MS would cooperatively partner with someone | 05:25 |
| Fuji-san | well it would be good for Microsoft image public relation wise | 05:25 |
| kkathman | and then turn the install, maintenance and consulting business over to its partners | 05:26 |
| Fuji-san | lol | 05:26 |
| kkathman | Fuji-san: they need no PR..they are the 300 lb Gorilla and can sit anywhere they want right now :) | 05:26 |
| Fuji-san | well imagine the event where the open source community invents an app that microsoft really needs in its own OS... then they would have to adapt that piece of software in their OS as open source.. | 05:27 |
| nalioth | kkathman: they on a diet? i thought they were the 200kt gorilla | 05:27 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: could you run the kprinter add printer dialog again, and this time, go the bottom of the devices list, and see if there is a section called "HP devices" ? | 05:27 |
| kkathman | nalioth: lol | 05:28 |
| Fuji-san | lol | 05:28 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: hp:/no_device_found? you mean? | 05:28 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: hmm | 05:28 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: yes, definetly hmm | 05:28 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: your printer is switched on and connected ? | 05:28 |
| satempler | so any one know how to add metadata to a video | 05:29 |
| Hobbsee | yes, and yes | 05:29 |
| Hobbsee | *double checks* | 05:29 |
| insanekane | Fuji-san: MS would just replicate it with an army of programmers | 05:29 |
| Hobbsee | yeah, it is | 05:29 |
| Fuji-san | thats not allowed in open source insanekane | 05:29 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: hmm ok | 05:29 |
| satempler | Fuji-san: it's allowed | 05:30 |
| Fuji-san | its the copyleft rule :) | 05:30 |
| satempler | Fuji-san: that has nothing to do with it | 05:30 |
| Fuji-san | ms would have to share its entire os for free then | 05:30 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: i doubt it's a parallel port problem, or a connection problem or that sort of thing, as the printer works fine in windows, connected in exactly the same way | 05:30 |
| satempler | Fuji-san: nope | 05:30 |
| insanekane | Fuji-san: if the open source/free software community makes an app that MS really needs in their OS, then MS would just hire an army of programmers to replicate ... better yet, they would hire the exact same people who made the open/free version of the software to make the MS version | 05:30 |
| Fuji-san | yer thats prolly true insanekane | 05:31 |
| kkathman | insanekane: thats probably true | 05:31 |
| kkathman | but right now its mostly the other way around | 05:31 |
| Fuji-san | unless Richard Stallman made it :) | 05:31 |
| kkathman | lol | 05:31 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: yeah, just trying to figure it out ... it seems HP printers are handled by an hp backend, irrespective of which bus it uses | 05:31 |
| Fuji-san | then they are screwed | 05:31 |

| kkathman | but nalioth is right, any money to be had in Linux is in support right now | 05:35 |
| Fuji-san | Can you play games on kubuntu? | 05:35 |
| frank23 | kkathman: apparently his investment firm did it without him knowing... but that me be the official line to not piss off Microsoft | 05:35 |
| scotty | yes | 05:36 |
| kkathman | Fuji-san: sure ... it comes with many games | 05:36 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: yes, what about it? just shows study printer which is connected via smb | 05:36 |
| Fuji-san | but support is free aswell i mean here on freenode | 05:36 |
| kkathman | frank23: I can absolutely say with not even a doubt that Michael Dell knew exactly what he was doing | 05:36 |
| Hobbsee | Fuji-san: and the forums, too, they're a good resource | 05:36 |
| Hobbsee | hehe @ kkathman | 05:36 |
| kkathman | I know the man personally | 05:36 |
| Hobbsee | i'll bet he did | 05:37 |
| frank23 | kkathman: really? try to convince him to start selling AMD. ;-) | 05:37 |
| Fuji-san | ok i'll have a look | 05:38 |
| kkathman | and yes, Michael and Bill ARE good friends | 05:38 |
| kkathman | frank23: yah I dont think that will happen :) | 05:38 |

| kkathman | remember Dell is a bank that sells computers on the side | 05:40 |
| Fuji-san | lol | 05:41 |
| kkathman | Im serious | 05:41 |
| kkathman | every computer that is ordered they get 30-60 days on money. the interest is amazing | 05:41 |
| scotty | Thats how they keep prices low | 05:42 |
| scotty | Its not pure undercutting | 05:42 |

| scotty | Difference being Dell isn't in a position where they can raise prices, they have to consistantly stay low inorder to stay in the game | 05:43 |
| frank23 | kkathman: so Dell wouldn't work if computer component prices were stable? | 05:43 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: that would require bothering to go and enable the root account...but i shall try | 05:44 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: tried as root ? | 05:44 |

| kkathman | scotty: stay in the game??? are you nuts? They ARE the game LOL. About a year ago, HP was raising their prices and Dell was lowering. | 05:45 |
| Hobbsee | still nothing found | 05:45 |
| kkathman | frank23: nah if component prices were stable it wouldnt matter | 05:45 |
| Hobbsee | insanekane: same error, still nothing found | 05:45 |
| insanekane | Hobbsee: yes, i saw ur message | 05:45 |
| Hobbsee | cool | 05:45 |

| sampan | gah, why would acroread stop working? every time i launch it it just flashes the splash screen and then vanishes. | 07:33 |
| sampan | i even tried removing and then reinstalling the package -- still no joy. | 07:33 |
| propagandhi | sampan: I am also having that problem | 07:33 |
| nalioth | sampan: try your ~/.acroread or whatever it is | 07:34 |
| sampan | nalioth, same thing -- flash of the splash screen then *poof* | 07:34 |
| sampan | i swear it was working last week | 07:34 |
| nalioth | sampan: try with the --purge option (using apt-get) | 07:35 |
| sampan | apt-get --purge acroread apt-get --purge acroread ? | 07:36 |
| nalioth | you can use adept or kynaptic, point is to purge the config files | 07:36 |
| nalioth | sudo apt-get --purge remove acroread | 07:36 |
| sampan | ahhh gotta have the remove in there | 07:37 |
| Fuji-san | nalioth is there something you need to install to get your gfxcard to work on linux for playing games using cedega? | 07:37 |
| sampan | so now reinstall it i suppose | 07:38 |

| sampan | propagandhi if you ever get that acroread problem solved, let me know please ;) | 08:01 |
| sampan | kpdf is okay, but acroread is much better and pdf files are "mission critical" for me | 08:01 |
| Tm_T | err | 08:02 |
| propagandhi | sampan: i will be looking into it again shortly, if i make any progress i will | 08:02 |
| Tm_T | to me, kpdf is far better | 08:02 |
| sampan | k thanks :) | 08:02 |
| cyne | sampan why do yu oneed acroread? | 08:02 |
| cyne | kpdf is much bettre for me too | 08:02 |
| Tm_T | :) | 08:03 |
| propagandhi | sampan: i just noted if i run it as root, a whole bunch of plugins fail to load, but it does open | 08:03 |
| propagandhi | sampan: and then i ran it as the normal user, with the same results | 08:04 |
| propagandhi | it is open and running now | 08:04 |
| propagandhi | but before if i executed as the standard user it would only flash the splash screen as you described | 08:05 |
| sampan | Tm_T and cyne, there's no accounting for taste -- but many of the things I use it for include online interactive pdf forms for doctoral grants in multiple languages -- i'd really like to make sure that i'm working with the same application that the grant institutions and universities are working with | 08:05 |
| sampan | thanks propagandhi, i'll give that a try | 08:05 |
| Tm_T | sampan: ah, true | 08:05 |
| propagandhi | the official has a lot of features and usability kpdf doesnt have, but under normal circumstances kpdf is fine for me also | 08:06 |
| Tm_T | sampan: I mostly use Kpdf to read magazines etc | 08:06 |
| nalioth | evince | 08:06 |
| sampan | all it takes is one "glictch" in an online form that sends a misconfigured line or character and my application gets tossed in the trash and i don't get the money | 08:06 |
| cyne | sampan, true enough :) | 08:07 |
| sampan | propagandhi did you sudo acroread kdesu acroread? both of those just do the same thing for me :/ flash and close | 08:07 |
| propagandhi | sampan: i actually executed as root from a terminal, its still missing loads of plugins, but I'm looking into that also | 08:08 |

| amarock | that shouldnt be a prob then:) | 10:38 |
| bubblenut | amarock: try installing initNG, it sets up concurrent loading on the boot to greatly reduce boot time ... incidentally I'm having difficulty installing it through Kynaptic, can you suggest a better way? | 10:38 |

| raphink | sure jpgeerets xmms can | 11:29 |
| raphink | you don't need to instal realplayer | 11:30 |

| iceman | nalioth thanks | 11:47 |
| raphink | deb ftp://cipherfunk.org/pub/packages/ubuntu/ breezy main | 11:47 |
| raphink | this one works | 11:47 |
| raphink | just tried it | 11:47 |
| raphink | then | 11:47 |
| raphink | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install w32codecs | 11:47 |
| nalioth | raphink: please dont do that | 11:48 |
| nalioth | debian binaries will cause ubuntu to grind to a halt | 11:48 |
| raphink | sorry nalioth ? | 11:48 |
| el-stupido | nalioth: can i gte it from Adept? | 11:49 |
| Phazeman | nalioth: it works now.. thanks | 11:49 |
| nalioth | and since most new users arent gonna know to disable that repos when they're done getting it from there, their systems become at risk | 11:49 |
| el-stupido | nalioth: nvm got it | 11:49 |
| raphink | do I have bad glasses or does the link I just gave contain "ubuntu" in it? | 11:49 |
| nalioth | raphink: official ubuntu archives do not have w32codecs in them, hence yours is 'unofficial' | 11:50 |
| raphink | yes it's unofficial | 11:50 |
| raphink | but it's compiled for ubuntu | 11:50 |
| nalioth | i can call myself "president of the world" but that does not make it so | 11:50 |
| raphink | sure | 11:50 |
| el-stupido | nalioth: now that i have it installed what should I get to extact rar's? | 11:50 |
| nalioth | el-stupido: once you have unrar-nonfree installed, you should be able to right-click or double-click on rar files and get them going | 11:51 |
| el-stupido | nalioth: ok thanx | 11:51 |
| raphink | I'd think people are responsible and can choose whether they want to take that risk or not | 11:51 |
| raphink | since the repo given in the "official" howto doesn't work | 11:51 |

| raphink | hi fujisan | 11:55 |
| fujisan | hi | 11:55 |
| raphink | ik ben goed fujisan :) | 11:55 |
| iceman | It skinable, to stinking bulky to be practackal .... | 11:55 |
| fujisan | which software is integraded in ubuntu for burning ,..like nero | 11:56 |
| morrow | k3b | 11:56 |
| fujisan | oh hallo raphink ik ook= me too | 11:56 |
| raphink | k3b :) :) | 11:56 |
| nalioth | fujisan: nautilus has a built in burning capability. i recommend k3b | 11:56 |
| fujisan | k ty | 11:56 |
| raphink | nautilus is more of a gnome app | 11:56 |
| fujisan | is kde better performance wise then gnome or more bigs? | 11:57 |
| fujisan | bugs* | 11:57 |
| raphink | gnome is a bit faster imo | 11:57 |
| raphink | but kde has more functions | 11:57 |
| raphink | I personally prefer kde | 11:57 |
| fujisan | yes kde looks 20x better though | 11:58 |
| raphink | for you :) | 11:58 |
| raphink | and for me too | 11:58 |
| fujisan | :) | 11:58 |
| raphink | but I knwo many people who prefer gnome | 11:58 |
| fujisan | is grub autoinstalled? | 11:58 |
| nalioth | but with ubuntu, one can run xubuntu and use any kde/gnome/X app they want | 11:58 |
| raphink | (don't understand why, but well `de coloribus et gustibus non discutandum') | 11:58 |
| fujisan | so i should install ubuntu first | 11:59 |
| fujisan | and then kde | 11:59 |
| raphink | hmm not necessarily | 11:59 |
| raphink | if you only want kde | 11:59 |
| fujisan | thanx for the tip nalioth | 11:59 |
| raphink | you can just install kubuntu | 11:59 |
| fujisan | i want to keep my options open of course | 11:59 |
| raphink | if you only want gnome, then ubuntu | 11:59 |
| raphink | if you want more, then xubuntu | 11:59 |
| raphink | you always kep your options open | 11:59 |
| fujisan | yes | 12:00 |
| nalioth | fujisan: you can have k/x/ubuntu on your box and choose from the sessions menu which one you want to use | 12:00 |
| fujisan | can you install xbuntu on kubuntu and change? | 12:00 |
| raphink | it's not about changing | 12:00 |
| fujisan | switching* | 12:01 |
| raphink | not about switching either | 12:01 |
| fujisan | ok | 12:01 |
| nalioth | fujisan: any order you like | 12:01 |
| raphink | kubuntu and xubuntu are somehow parts of ubuntu | 12:01 |
| raphink | just particular cases | 12:01 |
| raphink | so you can install kubuntu and get a box working like xubuntu or ubuntu | 12:01 |
| raphink | or install ubuntu and get it to work as kubuntu | 12:01 |

| nalioth | i have k/x/ubuntu on my box and use kde programs under gnome and gnome programs under kde and everything in xfce4 | 12:01 |
| fujisan | lol that seems confusing | 12:02 |
| raphink | hmm | 12:03 |
| raphink | well | 12:03 |
| raphink | say | 12:03 |
| raphink | in the beginning there was only ubuntu | 12:03 |
| raphink | which was is project including gnome as the default window manager (wm) | 12:03 |
| raphink | then people wanted to have kde running on ubuntu | 12:03 |
| raphink | so they added the kde packages into the universe repository | 12:03 |
| raphink | and eventually created a project called kubuntu | 12:04 |
| fujisan | is kde, gnome underneath with a few addons and different fonts? | 12:04 |
| raphink | which is ubuntu with kde with kde as default wm | 12:04 |
| raphink | no fujisan | 12:04 |
| fujisan | ok | 12:04 |
| raphink | kde and gnome are differnet projects | 12:04 |
| nalioth | fujisan: no it is kde | 12:04 |
| fujisan | ok i see | 12:04 |
| raphink | now you can well install kubuntu | 12:04 |
| raphink | and choose to add gnome programs | 12:04 |
| raphink | or install ubuntu and add kde afterwards | 12:04 |
| raphink | whatever you want | 12:04 |
| nalioth | fujisan: there are more desktop managers than gnome or kde or xfce4, tho | 12:05 |
| nalioth | fujisan: you can have an enlightenment desktop, or fluxbox or many others | 12:06 |
| fujisan | yer but i'll still with kde to start with | 12:06 |
| fujisan | i'll just make a second install cd with ubuntu and kubuntu | 12:06 |

| dipnlik | fujisan: easier to install software on kubuntu | 01:04 |
| Phazeman | fujisan: lol you don't :) you run adept | 01:04 |
| TobyK | phazeman - nope, my guess would be /var/log | 01:04 |
| Phazeman | TobyK: is it a regular access cycle ? or it ALWAYS used ? | 01:05 |
| nalioth | nice thing about open source. you can try what you see, and use what works for you | 01:05 |
| Tm_T | dipnlik: actually afaik Kopete has more protcols :p | 01:05 |
| TobyK | phazeman: regular, every 5 seconds or so | 01:05 |
| nalioth | fujisan: use adept | 01:06 |
| Phazeman | TobyK: the answer to you comes from Roobarb from #mandriva: | 01:06 |
| Phazeman | <+Roobarb-Work> its probably the filesystem flushing to disk | 01:06 |
| Phazeman | 13:06 <+Roobarb-Work> or | 01:06 |
| Phazeman | 13:06 <+Roobarb-Work> tail -f /var/log/messages | 01:06 |
| Phazeman | <+Roobarb-Work> I had an ssh dictionary attack on my server that gave a disk access like that | 01:07 |
| Phazeman | TobyK: you with me ? | 01:07 |
| TobyK | yup i'm reading :) | 01:07 |

| fujisan | i dont have administrators right to creat a new folder... help :/ | 01:09 |
| TobyK | i don't know this is a clean kubuntu install | 01:09 |
| Phazeman | fujisan: sudo mkdir [dirname] | 01:09 |
| Phazeman | TobyK: sudo /etc/init.d/mldonkey status | 01:09 |
| Phazeman | see if there is such file | 01:09 |
| TobyK | no nothing of the sort | 01:09 |
| fujisan | Phazeman: ? | 01:10 |
| Phazeman | fujisan: ? | 01:10 |
| fujisan | i dont get it | 01:10 |
| Phazeman | i just told you how to create a folder | 01:10 |
| Phazeman | fujisan: in ubuntu/kubuntu you don't need to use root | 01:10 |
| Phazeman | fujisan: you use sudo | 01:10 |
| Phazeman | TobyK: try to see with hdparm if you have the caching enabled | 01:10 |
| Phazeman | bbi5 | 01:10 |
| TobyK | heh, i did hdparm -S 1 /dev/hda and it doesn't even sleep 'cos it's so busy | 01:11 |

| Tm_T | fujisan: apt-get install kopete ;) | 01:16 |
| toby | Anyway...I've just learnt that Kubuntu doesn't come with a default firewall, so I have to choose one. A quick survey: What firewall do you use on Kubuntu, and was it simple to set up? | 01:16 |
| toby | (question to everybody) | 01:16 |
| Tm_T | toby: iptables | 01:16 |
| Tm_T | toby: and it's there | 01:16 |
| TobyK | i'd use iptables | 01:16 |
| TobyK | altho guarddog is cool | 01:17 |
| Tm_T | never heard of any other firewall | 01:17 |
| fujisan | Tm_T: i dont understand what that means | 01:17 |
| fujisan | :( | 01:17 |
| Tm_T | toby: it's just iptables frontend =) | 01:17 |
| toby | I used to use Shorewall on Mandrake, but I understand that it was an iptables frontend too | 01:17 |
| Tm_T | firestarter is goof | 01:17 |
| Tm_T | good | 01:17 |
| TobyK | yup, 'cos try telling someone how to setup a firewall with iptables :) | 01:17 |
| fujisan | lol | 01:18 |
| dipnlik | almost every graphical program is a frontend :) | 01:18 |
| fujisan | Tm_T: what does it mean what you just said to me? | 01:18 |
| Tm_T | fujisan: use adept to install kopete | 01:18 |

| burepe | I am no pro, but you gotta find wich device represnents the burner in /dev. Then you make a folder in /media to mount it to. The | 02:01 |
| raphink | how do you do what? use the console or PM ? | 02:01 |
| fujisan | use the console | 02:01 |
| fujisan | of course | 02:01 |
| burepe | sudo nano -w /etc/fstab | 02:01 |

| raphink | to open a console | 02:02 |
| burepe | copy and paste to the command line | 02:02 |

| mornfall | well... you could think of it as a very heavy window manager ;-) | 02:09 |
| LostFan84 | Ok one more question....so I understand there are all these different Linuz distros...How come everyone I've tried looks the same? | 02:09 |
| LostFan84 | Linux* | 02:09 |
| logikal | KDE and Gnome may look the same | 02:09 |
| raphink | they *look* the same | 02:09 |
| raphink | because they use the same programs | 02:09 |
| raphink | but they don't *feel* the same | 02:09 |
| raphink | like the administration and stability can be very differnet | 02:09 |
| mornfall | because they use the same programs? :-) | 02:09 |
| LostFan84 | Hmm... | 02:10 |
| raphink | they mightnot the recognize the hardware as well, or the same way | 02:10 |
| burepe | I say get both if you can and experiment. If you install kubuntu then do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop or vice versa | 02:10 |
| apokryphos | amaroK 1.3.5 packages for anyone who wants them: http://www.kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.3.5.php | 02:10 |
| raphink | and thus might not be used for the same purpose | 02:10 |
| burepe | then you have both | 02:10 |
| LostFan84 | I have the Kubuntu 5.10 Breezy...and I''ve been getting used to it: commands, functions | 02:10 |

| jjesse | Calilasseia: you can change your /etc/apt/sources.list by replacing anything w/ "hoary" in it to "breezy" | 03:10 |
| TobyK | i might be wrong here, but a search and replace of "hoary" with "breezy" in /etc/apt/sources.list followed by apt-get update, then apt-get dist-upgrade should do the trick | 03:10 |

| strike4ce | Blissex: I did it the other day just cant remember? | 03:51 |
| jeh_work | the names may differ a bit on kubuntu... | 03:51 |
| Blissex | strike4ce: the problem is that every little ''environment'' has a _different_ setting for ''default browser'', there is no central setting for that. | 03:51 |
| Blissex | strike4ce: so <jeh_work>'s suggestion is good for KDE, but non KDE apps will require anoher setting and so on. | 03:52 |
| jeh_work | kde apps should honor the setting in control center... | 03:52 |
| jeh_work | and some apps may just have it hardcoded in, some use the BROWSER env var etc | 03:53 |

| nikkia | kudude: a fair idea, its 5.0 isn't it ? | 05:10 |
| kudude | yes. | 05:10 |
| nikkia | 5.0's kernel modules don't work with recent kernels | 05:10 |

| nikkia | about 2 weeks ago, when i was discussing this project with my boss, i joked 'its probably fucking rot13' | 05:12 |
| nikkia | guess what | 05:12 |
| kudude | nikkia: that's exactly what's happening to me.. So how come they have no documentation on their web stating that. | 05:12 |
| kudude | they totally suck.. | 05:12 |
| nikkia | kudude: i don't think they know about it, as i said, its fixed in 5.5rc, which is what i use | 05:12 |
| kudude | nikkia: how stable is 5.5rc? | 05:12 |
| nikkia | kudude: stable enough, i've been using it for a couple of weeks, running VC++.NET and various other apps, seems fine | 05:13 |
| kudude | nikkia: ok gonna download 5.5rc then.. thanks for the info. | 05:13 |
| kudude | will let you know if it worked for me.. | 05:13 |
| nikkia | kudude: tbh, i can't see them putting much effort into fixing 5.0 anyway, since 5.5 is a free upgrade for 5.x users | 05:13 |
| nikkia | 5.5 is probably the right place for such a fix | 05:13 |
| kudude | hey one quick question.. for 5.5rc. is it a clean install or is it an upgrade...if I uninstall can I re-attach my pre-configured machines? | 05:14 |
| nikkia | kudude: oh, and even tho its a rc, it says 'unlimited' for the time limit on the build | 05:14 |
| nikkia | kudude: either will work | 05:14 |
| nikkia | kudude: at work i did an upgrade, at home i did a clean install and just used my serial # from 5.0 | 05:14 |
| kudude | nikkia: ok man.. latas..will you be on for another 1/2 hour or so? | 05:15 |
| nikkia | kudude: as for the VMs, i imagine they're forward compat, but probably not backwards | 05:15 |
| nikkia | erm, swap those around :) | 05:15 |
| nikkia | backwards compat, but not forward compat | 05:15 |
| nikkia | ie, once 5.5 has touched a VM, 5.0 is probably SOL on it | 05:15 |
| kudude | nikkia: what's funny is that my installation at home works quite.. fine.. same kernel, same distro.. | 05:15 |
| kudude | only that I am using a DHCP at home and not on a LAN.. | 05:16 |
| nikkia | kudude: yeah, its weird, its probably some other 'feature' in the network stack that clashes | 05:16 |
| kudude | but anyways I will check out 5.5rc.. | 05:16 |
| nikkia | for me, it crashes in both after 2.6.9 | 05:16 |
| roman-stefan | wow, r u guys employed it IT ????? | 05:16 |

| === sproingie got an ati because it was cheap | ||
| roman-stefan | but they're part of the axis of evil | 05:35 |
| sproingie | unfortunately they cheaped out on the damn FAN, so it overheats like crazy too | 05:35 |
| sproingie | that's not ATI's fault, just the OEM for this card | 05:35 |
| roman-stefan | aren't nvidia cards ordinary when it comes to openGL? | 05:36 |
| kudude | heheh! I guess you get what you pay for. | 05:36 |
| nikkia | roman-stefan: no | 05:36 |
| sproingie | roman-stefan: no, they have better support | 05:36 |
| kudude | life sucks though.. when you want good things you have to pay sometimes twice as much. | 05:36 |
| nikkia | roman-stefan: nvidia's GL support is very good | 05:36 |
| sproingie | which is IRONIC, since ATI cards are based on the firegl core, which once had the BEST OGL support | 05:36 |
| nikkia | the only time i've ever been annoyed by nvidia's GL is on GeForce4MX's where there are a few 'wtf did they do that?' issues | 05:36 |
| nikkia | sproingie: once, as in about 6 years ago :P | 05:37 |
| roman-stefan | damn it i got my 9600 thinking nvidia were going down the Microsoft Direct3D shitty path | 05:37 |
| nikkia | sproingie: ATI's GL drivers have always been hopelessly register-limited on x86 too, if you compare GL performance on an x86 machine with ATI GL performance on a PPC, its night and day | 05:37 |
| sproingie | nvidia still takes a lot of liberties whereas when ati does GL they tendto do it right | 05:37 |
| nikkia | sproingie: erm, liberties like being first to support 2.0 ? :) | 05:38 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | hm. all i want from nvidia now is support for smp kernels :| | 05:38 |
| sproingie | nikkia: i suspect they just didn't vectorize their code properly. SSE2 is just as performant when it comes to ogl ops | 05:38 |
| nikkia | Kamping_Kaiser: it doesn't work? it did on my P2-333*2 + GeForce 2 that ran linux... | 05:38 |

| nikkia | Kamping_Kaiser: my PC at work is a HT'ed P4, with a FX5200, it works ok | 05:39 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | bugger :( | 05:39 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | maybe i suck at using linux then :| | 05:39 |
| nikkia | Kamping_Kaiser: and yes, i'm using the -smp kernel package (regular debian tho) | 05:40 |
| sproingie | liberties like supporting stuff very half-assed and imprecise. which is fine when it comes to games, not so good when you're doing CAD/CAM | 05:40 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | nikkia :'( | 05:40 |
| roman-stefan | so who has an ati card? | 05:40 |
| sproingie | it's more a company culture thing -- firegl's were aimed at the CAD/CAM market before getting borged into ATI | 05:40 |
| amarock | often i land up in console mode for no apparent reason...then i reboot...then i get into kde....and this ONLY happens when it tells me that hda6 was not cleanly mounted...also i cant go to google or ubuntuforums at times....help! | 05:40 |
| nikkia | roman-stefan: i *have* one, don't use it :P | 05:40 |
| amarock | are u guys having any new probs with kubutnu breezy? | 05:40 |

| roman-stefan | haha | 05:41 |
| strike4ce | How do I install java? | 05:41 |
| nikkia | roman-stefan: no, it requires lots of luck and black magic, i spent about 4 months trying to get everything to work, never did | 05:41 |
| roman-stefan | yay | 05:41 |
| roman-stefan | thanx for the tip but | 05:41 |
| sproingie | at least the fglrx driver supports vertex and fragment shaders in OGL, which makes up for a lot | 05:41 |
| nikkia | (it would do weird things, like i'd get 3d acceleration working, but then alsa would fail to load !?!) | 05:42 |
| amarock | !xincludes | 05:42 |
| ubotu | well, xincludes is for X dev libs, install xlibs-dev, xlibs-static-dev and x-window-system-dev | 05:42 |
| === sproingie only ever uses 3d whenever he gets the urge to play with blender anyway. which is not often | ||
| nikkia | sproingie: its kind of an essential feature when you're programming stuff that uses OpenGL for a living :P | 05:43 |
| roman-stefan | ati website had something about driver support for 9500 and later coming soon | 05:43 |
| sproingie | nikkia: i imagine so. for me it's one of those things i want to teach myself in my Copious Free Time | 05:43 |
| seezer | sproingie: sounds like sun built 'looking glass' for you :) | 05:43 |
| strike4ce | How do I install java? | 05:43 |
| kudude | roman-stefan: even the driver on ati doesn't work properly.. | 05:44 |
| nikkia | !java | 05:44 |
| ubotu | somebody said java was to install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadeb | 05:44 |
| sproingie | seezer: some of the features in LG look nifty. on the whole it's a gimmick tho | 05:44 |

| roman-stefan | ah | 05:47 |
| roman-stefan | kudude: i can't even run a screensaver with more than 15 fps pretty much | 05:47 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | amarock: your hda6 is probalby the / partition | 05:47 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | so if you hard reboot it would not have been cleanly unmounted | 05:47 |
| amarock | Kamping_Kaiser: no its not! its simply a storage partition...../ one is hdb1, home hdb2 | 05:48 |

| kkathman | but rikva is right, you might need the codecs for video | 07:54 |
| roman-stefan | so the problem isn't the gstreamer ? | 07:54 |
| Aapzak | hey kubuntu people, I just did a 5.10 install, damn that looks awesome, 3.4.3 on Kubuntu is very very sexy | 07:54 |
| kkathman | roman-stefan: you dont have to use gstreamer | 07:54 |

| kkathman | manito: so when you installed, did you install clean, then apt-get kubuntu-desktop? | 08:17 |

| tvo | scanner: normal shutdown? | 08:52 |
| scanner | yes | 08:53 |

| kkathman | flixor: ohhh you mean the kicker? | 08:53 |
| tvo | scanner: strange, that problem is unknown to me | 08:53 |
| flixor | ehm well i think its is something from konqueror | 08:53 |
| scanner | Yes, it's very strange | 08:53 |
| scanner | And I have installed 5 times the system | 08:54 |
| kkathman | flixor: hmm..can you snapshot it and put it on the pastebin (see topic) | 08:54 |
| scanner | but always the same problem | 08:54 |
| tvo | scanner: note that it's normal for the monitor to turn off if you hibernate | 08:54 |
| flixor | i make a screenshot of it and put it on my website with gwenview | 08:54 |

| scanner | ;-( | 08:55 |
| kkathman | flixor: how can I see it? | 08:55 |
| flixor | onesec | 08:55 |
| tvo | scanner: because nvidia driver has a bug which sets wrong frequency for display, so it turns off :) | 08:55 |

| tvo | yes | 09:23 |
| thel0rd | I'm wondering if I should install kubuntu on my parents computer... | 09:23 |
| thel0rd | right now they are using debian w/ kde but that is very slow... | 09:24 |
| thel0rd | Gnome runs much smoother | 09:24 |
| kkathman | thel0rd: is that a function of the machine tho? | 09:24 |
| thel0rd | kkathman: what do you mean by that? | 09:25 |
| kkathman | debian w/KDE is kinda what ubuntu is...not exactly tho...but my system is very performant...just wondering if the system itself was underpowered | 09:25 |
| kkathman | KDE takes quite a bit of resource | 09:26 |
| thel0rd | its a Celeron 1GHz w/ 256 Megabytes of ram | 09:26 |
| tvo | thel0rd: if gnome runs much smoother, why don't they go with gnome ? | 09:26 |
| kkathman | yah that might be a little stretch | 09:26 |
| tvo | if you upgrade the ram it should be enough | 09:27 |
| thel0rd | because when I first installed their system, I didnt know much about Gnome and now they got used to KDE | 09:27 |
| tvo | i'm running on 800 Mhz w/ 384 Megabytes here | 09:27 |
| kkathman | but I ran KDE once on an HP with 96mb of RAM..it ran but was dead slow | 09:27 |
| icewt | hmm.. i have duron 1GHz / 256MB of ram, and KDE runs much smoother than gnome for me ;) | 09:27 |
| ajus_ | i don't have "window" menu in my konqueror.. what's wrong?? help please.. | 09:27 |
| thel0rd | shortly after I installed ubuntu 5.04 on my Athlon 2800+ w/512 megs of ram | 09:28 |
| thel0rd | with that came my first Gnome | 09:28 |
| thel0rd | and I loved it... | 09:28 |
| kkathman | ajus there isnt one standrd on the new simplified version | 09:28 |
| _mariux | they cleaned it up a bit | 09:29 |
| thel0rd | and since my brother messed something up with some dependencies which I am neither able nor willing to fix | 09:29 |
| tvo | :) | 09:29 |
| thel0rd | I want to install either ubuntu or kubuntu | 09:29 |
| kkathman | ajus if you want to change it back...read this: http://www.kubuntu.org/faq.php#konqueror | 09:29 |
| thel0rd | I'll probably stick to ubuntu though... | 09:29 |
| ajus_ | kkathman, that means i can't pop up konsole from konqueror? | 09:29 |

| kkathman | ajus_: see my previous post | 09:30 |
| kkathman | check that site | 09:30 |
| thel0rd | .. if kubuntu developers didn't manage to make KDE much faster than debian developers... | 09:30 |
| thel0rd | tvo: I dont think so | 09:30 |
| tvo | I can't compare, never ran debian | 09:30 |
| thel0rd | they'll be a little confused because it looks different | 09:30 |
| strike4ce | Does anyone know why fglrxinfo keeps saying missing Xfree86-dri? | 09:30 |
| thel0rd | but I dont think it will be too much of a struggle to get them into Gnome... | 09:31 |

| wie | kkathman, hya i am back i closed xchat with the control q command | 09:32 |

| thel0rd | tvo: I think I'll stick with Gnome... first, I like its look + feel and second, I'm saving for a ThinkPad and thus I don't have much money to spend on my parents computer... | 09:33 |
| kkathman | _mariux: I dont know, but it gives back the interface in the hoary version of konqy | 09:33 |
| tvo | don't your parents have money on their own? ;-) | 09:33 |
| thel0rd | yes, they do, but they don't think it is necessary to have a fast pc... | 09:34 |
| tvo | but if you ('re parents) like gnome, go ahead | 09:34 |
| Aapzak | thel0rd: they're right off course | 09:34 |
| kkathman | _mariux: I dont exactly know about that sidebar..I dont use konq except for a file manager | 09:34 |
| Aapzak | @ work I'm running Kubuntu on a P3-600, works just fine | 09:34 |
| tvo | it all depend on RAM in my experience | 09:35 |
| kkathman | thel0rd: of course you could install one of the other desktop managers also | 09:35 |
| Aapzak | KDE is also brilliant in that department :) | 09:35 |
| kkathman | tvo I agree :) | 09:35 |
| Aapzak | KDE stays responsive, even on slow machines, maybe the RAM is the only important factor with KDE | 09:35 |

| Aapzak | yes it is | 09:37 |

| Aapzak | BTW are you guys aware of the huge amount of RAM instant messengers like Gaim claim? | 09:38 |
| tvo | no | 09:38 |
| _mariux | they do? | 09:38 |
| viktor | kkathman, i have libstdc++6 libstdc++6-dev and dpkg | 09:38 |

| kkathman | _mariux: yes | 09:38 |
| viktor | _mariux, yes | 09:38 |
| Aapzak | lmme check :) | 09:38 |
| kkathman | _mariux: but very buggy | 09:38 |
| Aapzak | kopete is nice, but buggy | 09:39 |
| _mariux | viktor: kkathman i was thinking about it in the contect that Aapzak was talking about | 09:39 |
| _mariux | i fint kopete to work great and not buggy at all | 09:39 |
| _mariux | but i only use msn | 09:39 |
| Aapzak | I have trouble talking to some Microsoft MSN clients in some situations, my msgs just don't arrive | 09:39 |
| _mariux | what kinda bugs are we talking? | 09:40 |
| kkathman | _mariux: Gaim has some features that kopete doesnt | 09:40 |
| _mariux | sure but that isnt a bug | 09:40 |
| _mariux | ( kkathman ) | 09:40 |
| kkathman | _mariux: Kopete fails to sync with its server many times, which causes duplicate entries in you buddy list | 09:40 |
| kkathman | its a known bug | 09:40 |
| kkathman | theme install doesnt work properly | 09:41 |
| _mariux | the only problem i might have is that it sometimes doesnt connect | 09:41 |
| _mariux | but since it s a k-app i choose the integration of kopete over gaim | 09:41 |
| tvo | Aapzak: if the messages contained "download.php" it's a server side feature of MS to block those msgs | 09:41 |

| kkathman | amackay: so the track begins to play and then stops? | 11:30 |
| amackay | kkathman: nothing, it just looks like its loading, then goes away | 11:30 |
| kkathman | ohh so the application never comes up? | 11:31 |
| amackay | kkathman: amaroke loads and can play other file types, it just dies when it comes to mp3s | 11:31 |

| kkathman | so other things work, just not MP3s | 11:33 |
| kkathman | nalioth: thats curious for sure | 11:33 |
| amackay | yep | 11:33 |
| kkathman | nalioth: codec? | 11:33 |
| nalioth | amackay: what backend are you using? | 11:34 |
| amackay | lame is installed | 11:34 |
| aay | anyone know how to keep konq from opening up if i put a cd in the cdrom....or if i attach some usb flash media for that matter? i thought it would be in kcontrol, but I can't seem to find the right setting. | 11:34 |
| nalioth | amackay: got amarok-gstreamer? | 11:34 |
| amackay | and its using gstreamer | 11:34 |
| amackay | nalioth: yep | 11:35 |
| kkathman | hmm...maybe another engine would be better? | 11:35 |
| kkathman | Im more used to telling people to use kaffeine-xine :) | 11:36 |
| seth_k|lappy | gstreamer0.8-mad for mp3s, yes? | 11:36 |
| nalioth | amackay: got what seth_k|lappy said? | 11:36 |
| amackay | yes, that too | 11:36 |
| nalioth | weird | 11:37 |
| amackay | indeed | 11:37 |
| nalioth | it is ALL mp3s or just one in particular? | 11:37 |
| kkathman | hmm odd | 11:37 |
| amackay | if i try and open mp3s by using right click and open with amarok, it doesn't die but skips alot | 11:37 |

| amackay | kkathman: it works fine in kaffine | 11:38 |
| kkathman | ahh ok | 11:38 |
| kkathman | with the gstreamer engine or xine? | 11:39 |
| seth_k|lappy | please say xine :P | 11:39 |
| kkathman | lol | 11:39 |
| amackay | gstreamer i think | 11:39 |
| amackay | kaffine-xine isnt installed | 11:39 |
| kkathman | ahh ok | 11:39 |
| kkathman | hmm | 11:39 |

| kkathman | seth_k|lappy: you wanna a shot? | 11:40 |
| seth_k|lappy | lol | 11:40 |
| seth_k|lappy | not to rehash a point already made... but gstreamer0.8-mad is in universe... you're suuuure it's installed? ;) | 11:40 |
| kkathman | nalioth: sorry I repeated one of your questions...I was momentarily distracted by a child :) | 11:40 |
| seth_k|lappy | well, as long as the child is cute, it is forgivable | 11:41 |
| nalioth | kkathman: it's all good, bubba | 11:41 |
| kkathman | seth_k|lappy: he's almost 16, so thats impossible of course :) | 11:41 |
| amackay | seth_k|lappy: yep, definately installed | 11:41 |
| kkathman | however he was telling me of a high grade made in geometry so its all good | 11:41 |
| aay | there's got to be a way to keep konq from poping up everytime i put in a cd. anyone know? | 11:44 |
| kkathman | aay: you could refrain from putting a CD in I suppose | 11:45 |
| aay | kkathman, lol. | 11:45 |
| aay | yep that would solve ONE problem. | 11:46 |
| seth_k|lappy | amackay, you might wait until Riddell releases 1.3.5 to breezy-updates. Since it's obviously an AmaroK issue localised to that software (and thus is not an engine problem) maybe 1.3.5 will make it all better | 11:46 |
| seth_k|lappy | amackay, 1.3.5 has packages now but they require KDE 3.5b2 | 11:46 |
| aay | kkathman, hmm. reading on the forums someone says remove "ivman" and that will prevent media from automatically being opened. | 11:46 |
| nalioth | seth_k|lappy: 1.3.5 isnt available now? | 11:46 |
| seth_k|lappy | nalioth, Riddell had packages last night but he built them in a 3.5b2 chroot | 11:47 |
| seth_k|lappy | so they only installed on 3.5b2 | 11:47 |
| Riddell | seth_k|lappy: that should be fixed now | 11:47 |

| kkathman | aay: worth a try...and kudos for checking those forums :) | 11:48 |
| _thumper_ | or should I just wait till release date in mid Nov | 11:48 |
| nalioth | i have a question about 3.5.. do they have ppc binaries for it? | 11:49 |
| Riddell | nalioth: I do not | 11:49 |
| Riddell | since I don't have a ppc | 11:49 |
| nalioth | Riddell: guess i should get off my lazy arse and contribute, eh | 11:50 |
| nalioth | Riddell: are there a deb-src laying around anywhere for them? | 11:50 |
| Riddell | woo! | 11:50 |
| Riddell | yes, the sources are there | 11:50 |
| nalioth | i built flock from source last night, and i'm not impressed | 11:51 |
| seth_k|lappy | flock = Firefox + goodies | 11:51 |
| seth_k|lappy | but it's still rough, give it time | 11:51 |
| seth_k|lappy | I like the tagging | 11:51 |
| seth_k|lappy | and the blog editor | 11:51 |
| nalioth | Riddell: will using deb-src instead of deb on those kde 3.5b2 links get me source? | 11:52 |
