[12:54] i've been told upgrading to breezy is not reccomended using the method stated here http://www.kubuntu.org/docs/krelease-notes/C/kreleasenotes.html can you upgrade using the install discs? [12:55] anyone else got segmentation faults from realplayer 10? [12:55] don't you all think direct interaction between the user and the applications is currently a big mess in KDE and most other GUIs too? i mean, the tray, the docking applets, the flashing taskbar, the dialogs, the on-screen-displays... how applications choose to interact with the users basically seems a random choice; sometimes the user can configure the behavior, but that's random too [12:55] jubei: that method is perfectly fine [12:55] jubei: just make sure you have kubuntu-desktop before you change your sources [12:56] ok, the "failsafe" mode they mention is that the kernel option when i boot ubuntu or something else? === hughhalf [n=hugh@bh02i525f01.au.ibm.com] has joined #kubuntu [12:57] jubei: nope; from the login screen you can select Session -> Failsafe terminal === ubuntu [n=ubuntu@129.170.109.41] has joined #kubuntu === wotnarg [n=wotnarg@dsl-63-173-190-10.tcq.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:58] ljl: that's why the appeal and plasma projects were launched :) [12:59] do i edit /etc/apt/sources.list in normal mode then do the upgrade in failsafe mode? [12:59] jubei: personally I wouldn't care about going into failsafe at all; just save your stuff [12:59] you mean backup important files? [12:59] no, I wouldn't backup anything [12:59] anybody use the kubuntu live cd? [01:00] i can't get amarok to wokr [01:00] work [01:00] jubei: as in, close any open word docs etc [01:00] ubuntu: what's the error? [01:00] is it? i'm going to have a look at those. my opinion is that the currect methods of interaction should, basically, all be kept, but the which-is-which should be rationalized [01:00] gstreamer says it can't play mp3s [01:00] apokryphos: could I please enlist your help on a compile issue? [01:00] ubuntu: yes, it has to be like that [01:00] at your leisure of course :) [01:00] ubuntu: mp3 codecs are propietary software -- can't come on kubuntu live CD [01:00] kkathman: sure; what is it? [01:01] but when I check adept it says that they are all installed... [01:01] I keep getting the same errors no matter what I do to compile something (make) [01:01] the kde media back [01:01] ubuntu: to play mp3s from there you'd have to install gstreamer0.8-mad and akode-mpeg [01:01] *pack [01:01] why open adept for konsole this look is very diferent ? [01:02] kynaptic shows i have kubuntu-desktop but not the latest version, is that ok [01:02] ? [01:02] kkathman: could you pastebin the output? [01:02] I got xmms to work [01:02] somehow [01:02] without installing anything [01:02] jubei: just fine [01:02] so the codecs are there somewhere [01:02] ubuntu: yes [01:02] apokryphos: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/415471 [01:02] ubuntu: well, no; it doesn't use the same engine I don't think === vicks [n=chatzill@c83-248-56-125.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #kubuntu [01:03] oh === tenshiKur0 [n=tenshiKu@S0106000d93cb5211.vc.shawcable.net] has left #kubuntu ["--out"] [01:03] will the upgrade update my kernel? This is the main reason i want to update [01:03] kkathman: you should generally always paste make errors with the last line that compiles correctly [01:03] jubei: yes [01:04] jubei: Breezy is far superior though; you should definitely ahve it [01:04] apokryphos: ok one sec [01:04] kool === Tatsuya [n=Tatsuya@cpe-69-201-3-182.twcny.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [01:04] apokyphos: it says I already have gstreamer0.8 installed [01:04] hey anyone know how i can get gaim in kubuntu? [01:04] ubuntu: gstreamer0.8-mad and akode-mpeg -- install them and then you can play mp3s in amaroK [01:05] Tatsuya: breezy? [01:05] this forum http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=73767 suggests to do an sudo apt-get update first is this nessesary? [01:05] yea breezy [01:05] apokryphos: I guess Im too unfamiliar to know which line DID compile correctly :) [01:05] apo: is it normal that amarok takes ages to switch song, using gstreamer? [01:05] kkathman: lines with Errors are always negative [01:06] jubei: yes, the link mentions that [01:06] jubei: do this: change your sources, then sudo apt-get update (to refresh the sources for apt), then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [01:06] I use strait ubuntu but i installed kubuntu on a friends laptop and he wants to ge able to use gaim [01:07] Tatsuya: fire up adept and install it [01:07] ah so it does === fdelacruz [n=fdelacru@222.126.113.36] has joined #kubuntu [01:07] and there is really no advantage of using a failsafe console =) ? [01:08] adept reports that its not listed [01:08] Tatsuya: you must be typing it incorrectly [01:08] jubei: not really [01:08] thanks for your help apokryphos [01:09] kkathman: so basically just a couple of lines before that one, most probably 8) [01:09] how much space does a typical kubuntu install take up? [01:09] nope, it cant find any aim compatible clients [01:09] apokryphos: this is a representation of what was on my konsole about the last 2-4 screens worth: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/415485 [01:09] same as the Cd? [01:09] Tatsuya: in a terminal tell 'em to type sudo apt-get install gaim, and let me know the output [01:10] n8 [01:10] gaim better than kopete? [01:10] nope :D [01:10] :) [01:11] Miranda better than both :P except it's for that other OS [01:11] kkathman: looks like a random automake error; what programs have given that on compile? [01:11] apokryphos: knoda from sourceforge [01:12] the newest version [01:12] "couldnt stat source package" [01:12] and a list of http addresses [01:12] Tatsuya: sudo apt-get update first === tenshiKur0 [n=tenshiKu@S0106000d93cb5211.vc.shawcable.net] has joined #kubuntu === kjcole [n=kjcole@66.103.220.201] has joined #kubuntu [01:13] just did and it found it tnx [01:13] kkathman: did you do sudo apt-get build-dep knoda first? [01:13] apokryphos: yes [01:13] do you see any security problems in doing ' alias apt "sudo aptitude" '? [01:14] eh miranda is alright but it didn't even check away messages when I tried it [01:14] looks good though [01:14] nice and transparent and all [01:14] LjL: why the heck would you? They're not the same at all [01:14] ubuntu: and a ton of plugins [01:14] apokryphos: there was another hk_classes that I had to compile and install..and that was fine [01:14] apo: they what? [01:14] apo: "apt" isn't even a command [01:15] as to why I would, because typying "apt" is faster than typing "sudo aptitude" [01:15] particularly since auto-completion doesn't work after typing "sudo" [01:15] yes it does [01:15] you'd have to enable it [01:15] that's interesting, where would i look to enable it? [01:16] .bashrc? === phxx [n=phxx@Jad02.j.pppool.de] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [01:16] apokryphos: I think maybe I'll just have to remove all the dependencies and forget about the new version and maybe install the one thats in the repos...trouble is that package is way old [01:17] LjL: in your .bashrc add . /etc/bash_completion [01:17] apo: yeah was about to find out. it's there already, only commented out [01:17] would anyone have any experience compiling denu [makes menus for fluxbox etc] or something like it? [01:17] interesting === redguy [n=mati@acw218.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu [01:18] works, cool === Kibou [n=boo@dslb-084-063-013-254.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [01:19] "apt update" is still faster tho ;) but this sudo completion thing is definitely useful === TedLemon [n=mellon@ksanti.fugue.com] has joined #kubuntu [01:19] i think it ought to be enabled by default in ubuntu, since sudo is so often used [01:19] Has anybody had any luck getting audio to work with kubuntu? [01:19] ted: audio? yeah, it worked out of the box... [01:20] Sigh. Lucky you. [01:20] only with xmms on the live cde [01:20] cd [01:20] Yeah, xmms works for me, because it goes straight to the OSS driver rather than using the daemon. [01:20] why is k3b still at version 0.12.2? [01:20] I've been unable to get the daemon working, and can't figure out how to get it to say what it's doing so that I can fix it. [01:21] ah yeah, i'm having some problems with aRts, but basically it just works except for behaving strangely at times [01:21] LjL: it's not on by default because it can get bogged down on rare occassions [01:22] apo: i see... but perhaps not the whole /etc/bash_completion, but just the sudo part. any "rare occasions" shouldn't be too much of a problem, i think [01:22] TedLemon: I think that the codecs are in the wrong spot on the cd [01:22] i mean, it'd be a way to convince people to actually use sudo... i'm often very tempted to just "sudo su" when i have to type a few commands as root === LeeJunFan [n=junfan@adsl-69-210-207-6.dsl.klmzmi.ameritech.net] has joined #kubuntu === jsubl2 [n=jsubl2@72.48.95.220] has joined #kubuntu [01:25] LjL: you shouldn't use that; sudo -i is better [01:26] what's different?

[04:09] LeeJunFan: nobody, [04:09] fatejudger: more than you think. [04:09] fatejudger: I do - but not at the access point. [04:09] LeeJunFan: the point is, I've created a nuisance [04:09] LeeJunFan: tons of my neighbors have open APs [04:09] fatejudger, the point is, you dont like any words that start with wep- [04:09] LeeJunFan: they won't connect to mine, because it would be easier to just connect to an open one [04:10] kairu0: not if they steal my bandwidth [04:10] fatejudger: I agree that in 99% of the time that most people would stop there. But without WEP or at least some other kind of encryption everything is sniffable. [04:10] LeeJunFan: I live in the back of the residential neighborhood [04:10] Does anyone have the "GTK styles and fonts" setting working in Kubuntu 5.10 Look and Feel settings section? Mine does nothing, even though I have a bunch of gtk libs and themes installed [04:10] LeeJunFan: nobody comes back here unless they live here [04:11] LeeJunFan: the likelyhood of some person wanting to steal my wireless connection [04:11] LeeJunFan: and ignoring all of my neighbor's open wireless connections [04:11] LeeJunFan: it's so small, it's almost laughable [04:11] fatejudger: that's true. [04:11] Knowerrors, mine didnt work until i switched it from "use qt theme" to a specific theme [04:11] LeeJunFan: I'd rather have ALL of my bandwidth [04:12] anyway, my problem is still here [04:12] I can't connect [04:12] well, I can [04:12] but not automatically [04:12] kairu0: clicking on that button does nada for me, no settings dialog comes up [04:12] fatejudger: I agree, my wireless network is mixed. I prefer non wep for myself because of the latency and online gaming dont' mix. [04:12] Knowerrors, in System Settings -> Appearance, right? [04:13] LeeJunFan: yeah, it takes away bandwidth and adds latency [04:13] fatejudger: but then I vpn everything between my laptop and my router at the NOC too. [04:13] LeeJunFan: and many times I'll bridge a connection on my laptop to my Xbox [04:13] LeeJunFan: which I still haven't figured out how to do on Linux [04:13] LeeJunFan: so I have to boot into Windows every time [04:13] fatejudger: the important stuff anyway, like mail, some IM, and what not. [04:14] LeeJunFan: do you know how to bridge connections in Linux? [04:14] fatejudger: yeah, it's pretty simple. [04:14] fatejudger: do you have bridge tools installed? [04:14] fatejudger: bridge-utils actually. [04:16] fatejudger: just up both your interfaces with ifconfig with an address of 0.0.0.0, then brctl addbr br0 ; brctl addif eth0 ; brctl addif wlan0 ; ifconfig br0 [ip] netmask [netmask] [04:17] brb, gotta run outside and turn off my compressor, making my power backups beep when it kicks on. hehe [04:17] I should write a bash script for that [04:17] lol === ecobuntu [n=chris@S0106000625926fb6.ed.shawcable.net] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] === meangreenlizard [n=meangree@dslb-084-060-110-075.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:23] fatejudger: just don't double bridge to your switch you'll mess up the bridging tables and mess up your switch, have to reboot it. === propagandhi [n=propagan@CPE-144-131-132-107.nsw.bigpond.net.au] has joined #kubuntu [04:23] double bridge? [04:23] well how do I get my wireless working right now [04:24] using the /etc/network/interfaces [04:25] Hi, anyone got a qt3-designer with working sql-plugin? [04:26] fatejudger, it works when you manually restart networking yeah? [04:26] kairu0: yes [04:26] fatejudger, are you using ndiswrapper? [04:26] no [04:26] I tried using it [04:26] but then I uninstalled [04:26] it didn't work too well [04:27] everything is written for stupid Gnome [04:27] lol [04:27] Configuration is done using the iwconfig program; see iwconfig(8). For each possible command parameter of iwconfig you can include an option in /etc/network/interfaces named like that parameter with a "wireless-" prefix. [04:27] fatejudger, you sure dhcp isnt timing out? [04:28] when I do, "sudo dhclient ath0" it works [04:28] LeeJunFan: did you see the commands I had in that file? [04:30] fatejudger: in interfaces put: auto ath0 - then do iface ath0 inet dhcp on another line [04:30] they were: auto ath0, wireless-essid Chiron, and iface ath0 inet dhcp [04:30] well, hrm. [04:30] hehe, that should have done it. === duende [n=duende@wiley-336-81143.roadrunner.nf.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:30] maybe ndiswrapper broke it [04:31] Help : sudo will not work for me for some reason. when i issue any command with sudo, it doesn't ask for password nor does the command work. i tried with multiple users, and i don't have a password set for root. any ideas? [04:31] maybe ndiswrapper isn't getting loaded until after interfaces is run. [04:31] LeeJunFan: I don't use ndiswrapper though [04:32] LeeJunFan: I first used the native drivers [04:32] LeeJunFan: and then tried to use ndiswrapper to get the 108 mbps speeds my card gets [04:32] ah, then nevermind. ndiswrapper shouldn't make any dif then. [04:32] LeeJunFan: but ndiswrapper sucks [04:32] yeah. [04:32] LeeJunFan: so I removed the module [04:32] ndiswrapper works great for me [04:32] LeeJunFan: I couldn't ever get ndiswrapper working === nekostar [n=inuyasha@unaffiliated/starscalling] has joined #kubuntu === Sadistic [n=SadistiX@65.116.136.2] has joined #kubuntu [04:34] fatejudger: I dunno, I use madwifi (ath) also, but I don't have my wireless setup in interfaces because I have so many different places my wireless config is different it would be pointless anyway. [04:35] fatejudger: I wonder if you used a pre-up command in interfaces to modprobe ath_pci? [04:35] yeah [04:35] I did modprobe ndiswrapper or something [04:35] under your iface line, add one that says pre-up modprobe ath_pci [04:36] btw, double bridging would be if you had say 2 wireless cards connected to the same AP, or a wireless card and a wired connection to the same AP, and bridged those 2 interfaces together on your linux. [04:37] a very confusing DoS to the switch/ap. [04:38] so ubuntu does not use multiarch layout for it libs... is this correct [04:38] ? [04:38] LeeJunFan: ok, thanks [04:38] AEnertia: correct, it's true 64 bit only. [04:38] LeeJunFan: I'll try that after I get back from the concert [04:38] AEnertia: you have to do a chrooted installation for the 32bit libs. [04:38] well thats bloody stupid [04:38] AEnertia: yes and no. [04:39] No... it's stupid.. [04:39] I have read the debian rationale and heard the arguments [04:39] it's just bloody mindedness === gerardoc1 [n=gcontrer@148.233.33.113] has left #kubuntu [] [04:39] It's a nightmare to maintain [04:39] AEnertia: I can see both sides of the argument, but I happen to be more on your side with that. === Phily [n=Phily@ip062.195-51-69.Sogetel.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:40] archs that support natively >1 arch... should use multilib [04:40] qed [04:41] So.. basically because of a silly decision from debian team. Ubuntu as amd64 arch is effectively useless as a 0 hassle desktop distro... [04:42] AEnertia: yeah. No flashplugin, no openoffice, no vmware, etc without hassle. They do have openoffice in the distro, but if you want to do it yourself it's a pain in the ass. [04:42] Someone needs to create some scripts to rectify this issue. I can't actually imagine it being that difficult [04:42] but it would break package compat [04:43] AEnertia: It's all tied to libc, which everything is tied to, so you would have to change libc, which would then break everythign that relied on it == your whole system. [04:43] AEnertia: right. [04:44] AEnertia: it's assnine enough that I run 32bit on my AMD64. [04:44] LeeJunFan, well I will probably have to do that for this guy.... the problem is tho that I beleive there may be some issues with running 32bit kernel on this particular hardware combination === ToyMan [n=stuq@user-12lcqia.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #kubuntu [04:45] There certainly is with vanila kernel [04:45] I do a lot of work for other people, which means I have to use windows on occasion, so I need VMWare to work. [04:45] But it remains to be seen with ubuntu's patched to hell kernel [04:45] AEnertia: why's that? [04:45] AEnertia: I'm running vanilla here. [04:45] 2.6.14 [04:45] Various issues with badly implemented irq polling [04:46] from the various threads on the net i've read it seems that running native amd64 kern fixes most of the issues I was experiences [04:46] AEnertia: sure it's not just ACPI? [04:46] LeeJunFan, http://aenertia.net/megabook_m635.html [04:46] AEnertia: ah. [04:46] Trust me it's not [04:46] I was hoping to put kubuntu 5.10 amd64 on his laptop this weekend. [04:47] But now i've learned that multilib is b0rked ... I won't [04:47] anyone have realplayer working? [04:47] there are too many gotchas and I need whatever I put on to be seemless. [04:47] I can fix everything... but the point is that I don't want to give the impression that linux is difficult [04:48] So... I will try 5.10 32bit first... === AEnertia wonders how badly ubuntu 32bit would break if I put it's amd64 kernel packages in aswell. [04:49] how does 5.10 handle pcmcia ? [04:49] does it use pcmcia-cs utlis or the new pcmciautils package? [04:49] From memory if ubuntu is using 2.6.12 it's probably using the older style [04:49] which will break stuff if I put an amd64 kernel in. [04:50] Gah!... so will the ati drivers... Nope thats not going to work... [04:50] AEnertia: I dunno, I was wondering that myself before, but never got around to trying it. [04:50] LeeJunFan, well it will work fine as long as you don't have any external modules that need to be present [04:50] AEnertia: keep in mind too that the ATI drivers are not yet 2.6.14 friendly, but should work with 2.6.13 ok. [04:51] AEnertia: yeah, you'd have to compile all that ahead of time against the 64 bit kern. [04:51] Well I was using 2.6.13 kernel last time I attacked this thing [04:51] AEnertia: stick with that for now. [04:51] AEnertia: I was good with that too, just not .14 yet. [04:52] LeeJunFan, but the point is that reports are that 5.10's base kernel (which is 2.6.12-9 I beleive) fixes stuff on this chipset that is obviously not fixed in the vanila tree [04:52] hehe Vanila tree... [04:52] ah, I see - so you are wanting the ubuntu patches. [04:53] But I will probably wipe off my image and just do a clean ubuntu install [04:53] Coz my image doesn't have system management stuff. Which this guy will need [04:54] btw is there a pkg for kmplayer and kmplayer_plugin in universe? [04:55] I kmplayer_part plugin is THE best embeeded media plugin I have found. [04:55] not in 32 bit, I think it's no more. [04:55] much better even that mplayerplugin on which it is based [04:55] yeah, only kaffeine now. [04:55] Ok I can live with compiling that [04:55] yik kaffine === AEnertia rattles some pun about how coffee tastes bad anyway === seth_k [n=seth@asmallorange.com] has joined #kubuntu === LeeJunFan get's his kaffeine from Dr Pepper. [04:56] mplayer in pkgs? how about mplayer-plugin-dev and libgecko-sdk? [04:57] That stuff is foul === AEnertia is unsure how the Yanks drink it. === libbn [n=libben@c80-216-84-228.cm-upc.chello.se] has joined #kubuntu === AEnertia sticks with his pocari sweat ;-p [04:57] or 100+ [04:57] don't see either of those. [04:58] (which argueably are just as foul) [04:58] They are isotonic drinks [04:58] i.e meant to be good for you. [04:58] man I can't beleive you havn't heard of Pocari sweat. [04:58] mplayer is of course, as in the plugin, but not dev. [04:58] It has cult status, because of it's strange name [04:59] mplayer source? [04:59] my therapist says I can't join a cult. [04:59] :) [04:59] lol [04:59] probably I don't have source in my apt list so I can't easily auto-complete those out :) [05:00] ahh [05:00] what about libgecko-sdk? [05:01] couldn't find it. [05:01] sorry to bug you.. I'm just trying to figure out what I'll need to get from source === aeon17x [n=aeon17x@210.5.97.160] has joined #kubuntu [05:01] libgecko2.0-cil libgecko-cil [05:01] dunno what the cil affix is [05:01] one more ... gtkpod [05:02] (needed for ipod support in amarok) [05:02] yeah, it's there. [05:02] sweet [05:02] K... now all I need to pray the 32bit ubuntu kernel works [05:03] fags at FX took my show off. [05:04] what show? [05:04] do you know if the plugattached dhcp plugin is in 5.10 by default? [05:04] over there [05:04] AEnertia: I don't. === at1as is back. [05:05] [05:05] i.e the thing that detects there is a cable in your ethernet device and runs dhcp only when that happens [05:06] AEnertia: yeah, I know what you mean, but I don't know how that's supported in ubuntu. I don't even have my ethernet configured :) I [05:07] I'm sure they have something for that. [05:08] I think I remember reading something about that for wireless, but don't remember what it was. I do a lot of work on other peoples networks, some secure ones that sending anythign out an ethernet port by accident could be a bad idea. :) So I don't auto up any ethernet devices. === kkathman-dinner is now known as kkathman [05:12] hello all :) [05:13] Hello. === ranto [n=ranto@200-122-104-245.cab.prima.net.ar] has joined #kubuntu === sinclair [n=sinclair@200.95.148.113.cableonline.com.mx] has joined #kubuntu === sinclair is now known as NCLife === ranto [n=ranto@200-122-104-245.cab.prima.net.ar] has joined #kubuntu === jubei [n=jubei@ppp133-248.lns2.adl2.internode.on.net] has joined #kubuntu === nybble [n=nybble@pdpc/supporter/monthlybyte/nybble] has joined #kubuntu [05:22] hey all [05:23] hi [05:24] its surprisingly quite now..

I suspect with 128 it will do alot of that also. [06:26] kkathman, it's really only going to run OpenOffice2, amsn/gaim, and firefox [06:26] I run Gnome on a 256MB Dell thats a P3 450 and its fine [06:26] gp_aaron: you'll need more memory I think .. but you can try it [06:27] upgrades are not a option [06:27] it's my girlfriends computer [06:27] and her dad [06:27] hi! [06:27] openoffice sucks ram like a pig sucks swill [06:27] they are tight on cash, trying to save up for a new vehicle [06:27] replacing Windows with Linux eh...thats not a bad choice for older computers...thats what I did [06:27] kkathman, indeed [06:28] how can i change settings to cron in order to start updatedb for indexed locate only in at a certain time? [06:28] vectorlinux for olderhardware [06:28] that way I don't have to go over there every week to clean out the computer, now I can spend more time with her at her house, than with her computer at her house [06:28] or if it's REALY old deli linux [06:28] with pathetic office! [06:28] AEnertia, i was going to go with slackware or arch [06:28] gp_aaron: I got an old P3-450 Dell with 256mb and an older HP with 96MB both running ubuntu on my network as storage units...work like a champ [06:29] works on old 486 laptops with like 8mb [06:29] vectorlinux definately for anything with <=128mb [06:29] kkathman, i have a 256 stick of ram in my drawer here but I don't know if it works or not [06:29] gp_aaron: I run Gnome on the Dell...very performant, and just run CLI on the HP [06:29] ubuntu will work fine on older hardware as long as they have lots of ram [06:30] like 64Mt [06:30] yep...and will recognize the older hardware components too better than most [06:30] kkathman, my main box is gnome on a gig of ram 2.4 GHz p4 [06:30] i'm happy away from debian [06:30] plah [06:31] personally if you have good hardware then gentoo is the way. [06:31] =-p [06:31] gp_aaron: yah my main is 1gb ram, AMD 2500+ no problems [06:31] never [06:31] yuk [06:31] Gentoo is basically only good if you are going to compile alot...and then..its the best [06:31] been there, hated it, thought I was so cool, left and pissed in the flower pot on the way out [06:31] good hardware and a good net connection [06:31] thats just my opinion [06:32] Gentoo is no [06:32] lol [06:32] Gentoo is terrific for developers [06:32] personally there is no better distro than arch [06:32] but not for the average user and especially not for newbs [06:32] binary and source based [06:32] fast [06:32] i686 oriented [06:32] gp_aaron: you might try XFCE instead of KDE on that machine...less overhead and you still get a nice GUI [06:33] kkathman, nope [06:33] arch seems kinda flakey to me. You could just use a custom gentoo stage4 install to get the same result.. and you still have portage [06:33] kde looks/acts most like windows [06:33] which argueably is the best thing about gentoo [06:33] only option [06:33] gp_aaron... icewm with ROX desktop [06:33] it's kde without the kde bloat [06:34] i'm thinking I might give them my server.. [06:34] for all that compile time, the benefits speed wise etc are so minimal its not funny [06:34] gp_aaron: there's actually another GUI that was designed to be a Windows look alike..but I forget...it begins with an X [06:34] xd? [06:34] xde? [06:34] xfce [06:34] no [06:34] ncurses:) [06:34] kkathman: xpde [06:34] fwvm? [06:34] thats it [06:34] xpde [06:35] XPDE [06:35] yah thats it [06:35] too bad xpde is not truly open source. i'd love the irony of running it on my mac hardware [06:35] very much like Windows [06:35] nalioth: hehe [06:35] there is of course... always windowmaker [06:35] but if you have a reluctant user that doesnt want a learning curve...its a choice I guess [06:36] kde by choice === _fitz [n=fitz@adsl203-136.aknet.it] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [06:36] still think icewm with rox desktop is best low overhead windows look alike combo [06:36] i'm seriously thinking about giving them my server [06:36] what is the equivalent of /etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf in ubuntu? [06:36] it's what vector uses by default [06:36] http://www.pcquest.com/content/handson/2005/105090601.asp [06:36] gp_aaron: check out the XPDE web site you'd be amazed [06:36] kkathman, been there [06:36] done that [06:36] not what I'm looking for [06:37] ok [06:37] kde is my best option for them [06:37] then they'll need more RAM [06:37] i'm just trying to figure out if I can salvage my server or not [06:37] at least 512 [06:37] but how well will it run on a 350?

[08:47] that is a big problem [08:47] you see [08:47] the problem is that KDE is really buggy right now [08:47] it seems as though everybody just got so excited about KDE 4 [08:47] they forgot KDE 3 existed [08:48] so instead of working on KDE 3 [08:48] they just decided to use us all as guinea pigs for KDE 4 [08:48] so KDE 3.5 was born [08:48] hopefully the final version will be nice and stable [08:48] some of the kdesu things you can't start [08:48] especially the ones in the system settings [08:48] but some like adep [08:48] *adept [08:48] if you run it twice [08:48] or three times [08:48] it'll eventually pop up [08:49] hopefully these problem will go away since KDE 3.5 is based on the KDE 4 framework [08:49] or so I hear [08:49] fatejudger: dude [08:49] fatejudger: kdesu is so not original from kde in kubuntu [08:50] and? [08:50] and that's not a fscking kde fault [08:50] yes it is [08:50] it's KDE [08:50] *sigh* [08:50] go into system settings [08:50] and try and use the administration tools [08:50] it doesn't work [08:50] those are KDE bugs [08:50] no [08:50] those are kubuntu bugs [08:50] wtf [08:50] my kde doesn't have any of those problems [08:50] Kubuntu uses KDE [08:50] yes well [08:50] do you use 3.4.3? [08:51] it's a 3.5 branch build [08:51] on other machine 3.4 [08:51] ok well there you go! [08:51] from debian packages [08:51] yes [08:51] not a problem either [08:51] 3.4 [08:51] not 3.4.3 [08:51] 3.4.3 is crappy [08:51] 3.4.2 was better [08:51] 3.4.3 works out some bugs for 3.5 [08:51] kdesu is part of kde [08:51] notice the KDE part in KDESU [08:52] it's a KDE program that uses sudo [08:52] fatejudger: kdesu originally use su but kubuntu patched it to use sudo [08:52] fatejudger: yes, the interesting part is that (vanilla) kde doesn't use sudo [08:52] fatejudger: at all === florent [n=florent@84.4.161.230] has joined #kubuntu [08:52] fatejudger:hence it is a kubuntu bug [08:52] fatejudger: it's a kubuntu patch... get your facts [08:52] there's no patch for it [08:52] it's broken [08:53] oh lord [08:53] lol [08:53] show me then [08:53] where's the patch? [08:53] do you even use KDE 3.4.3? [08:53] fatejudger: grab your dictionary [08:53] KDE sucks now with Breezy [08:54] it downright sucks [08:54] they should have just kept Hoary === eggi_ws2 [n=einstein@dslb-082-083-090-171.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [08:54] someone had a bad morning huh? [08:54] I can't believe that people with such a great toolkit and OOP language can't even code shit right [08:55] hahaha [08:55] fatejudger: so if I understand correctly. you think hoary should be the last kubuntu? [08:55] no [08:55] I think they shouldn't have released Breezy [08:55] wait [08:55] because it's buggy [08:55] slow up === Delvien [n=dm@cpe-65-31-24-117.insight.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [08:55] it's not buggy here [08:55] what precisely is your concern with Kubuntu 5.10? [08:55] hussam> https://addons.mozilla.org/themes/moreinfo.php?id=456 pimpzilla 2.0 [08:55] yeah, kubuntu could have used few more weeks of freeze [08:55] but, *shrug* [08:56] yeah well, I could go on for at least 15 minutes on the problems I have with Breezy [08:56] notably KDE [08:56] How do you mount an ISO to act as if it was a CD from your HD [08:56] any1 ? [08:56] fatejudger: yeah, you had exactly 1 point, right? [08:56] fatejudger: a kdesu bug [08:56] well that's one [08:56] Delvien: sudo modprobe loop && sudo mount -o loop foo.iso /mnt [08:56] fatejudger: and the rest? you didn't mention anything else so far [08:56] if I wanted to list them all, I'd have to pastebin them all [08:56] fatejudger: just lots of name-calling [08:56] ok well, lets see here [08:57] aftertaf: thanks for the link :) [08:57] does any1 have a complete guide for hylafax configuration [08:57] it's got piss-poor support for configuring your system [08:57] fatejudger: and you filed bugs for them right? you just list bug numbers [08:57] system settings wasn't ready for release === meghan [n=meghan@151-45-178-69.gci.net] has joined #kubuntu [08:57] come to think of it, adept was barely ready for release [08:57] you can say that again [08:57] fatejudger: have you 1) spoken about them on kubuntu-{users,devel}? [08:57] fatejudger: you can always run kcontrol [08:57] this window resizing problem [08:57] really blows [08:58] fatejudger: and as mornfall said, what about bug #s? [08:58] system settings needs work === _xuniL [n=samuelkr@h141n1fls32o279.telia.com] has joined #kubuntu [08:58] I have no bug numbers, I don't have time to report every problem I have with Linux [08:58] I'd rather learn how to fix them myself [08:58] i agree that some things arent finished... but these guys are doing kde, ubuntu etc ontheir free time, for a hobby.... [08:58] fatejudger: but you have time to rant here and waste everyone else's time, good [08:58] fatejudger> that is a way you can contribute ;) [08:59] fatejudger: filing bugs is time-consuming, yes, but it helps more than just you [08:59] yes well, I have no idea how to apply my hobbyish knowledge of QT and my classroom knowledge of C++ in fixing bugs [08:59] so here I am [08:59] complaining [08:59] I wish I could fix these bugs myself [08:59] but apparently I can't [08:59] fatejudger: if you do get to fix your problems your self, it would be worthwhile to write on bugzilla what you did [08:59] how about working with the Kubuntu guys on it, then? [08:59] you don't have to fix them -by yourself- [08:59] everybody already knows about these problems though [08:59] fatejudger: the least you can do is report the bugs you find to bugzilla.ubuntu.com [09:00] crimsun: I no nothing about real-world software implementation [09:00] fatejudger: not every bug will appear on all computers [09:00] crimsun: only classroom work and hobby related QT stuff [09:00] fatejudger: what better place to start, then, than with KDE? [09:00] in that way fatejudger i understand your frustration.... [09:00] well nobody has told me how [09:00] they just give me a link [09:01] and expect me to know what the hell I'm doing [09:01] fatejudger: that's not much to give an opinion like [08:59:14] < fatejudger> I can't believe that people with such a great toolkit and OOP language can't even code shit right [09:01] I'm not used to developing and debugging such huge programs [09:01] I have no idea where to start [09:01] yeah well, it is sad [09:01] QT 4 is great [09:01] fatejudger: well, window resizing stuff is probably going to be related to the window manager -- if you can reproduce it for all apps in kwin [09:01] oh, and just FYI, C++ is a multiparadigm language not oop [09:01] and qt sort of sucks [09:01] but yeah, you know the best [09:01] mornfall: QT is great compared to GTK [09:02] (and so does kdelibs etc...) [09:02] fatejudger: oh, sure... so what? [09:02] fatejudger: windows is great compared to dos [09:02] mornfall: so, do you have any better way of implementing a toolkit? [09:02] fatejudger: so try starting by using apt-get source kwin [09:02] aftertaf : it won't install . it gives some guid error [09:02] ahh... :/ [09:02] shame [09:02] fatejudger: no, but it's being worked on... thing's don't happen like *zap* and it's perfect [09:02] you could have learned that by now [09:02] crimsun: that doesn't really help me [09:02] <_xuniL> okey i have 2 broken packages and i cant gett rid om the [09:03] <_xuniL> m [09:03] crimsun: I could get the source from subversion [09:03] crimsun: but I still wouldn't know what to do with it === Delvien [n=dm@cpe-65-31-24-117.insight.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [09:03] crimsun: I have no idea how people debug without knowing what every function does [09:03] fatejudger: think about the problems you're seeing [09:03] crimsun: and how all of the classes work [09:03] fatejudger: well, you should work with the KDE developers [09:04] crimsun: I wish I could [09:04] fatejudger: with half-decent code you can infer half of that and you read only the relevant parts [09:04] you're not expected to know everything right off the bat [09:04] (i'd classify kde code as half-decent...) [09:04] crimsun: well there really isn't anyone to get people started [09:04] KDE code is pretty good [09:04] fatejudger: have you filed a bug on it? [09:04] a bug on what? === _owl [n=owl@ppp83-237-208-5.pppoe.mtu-net.ru] has joined #kubuntu [09:05] fatejudger: this simple example, the resizing issue(s) [09:05] whatever problems you have... i bet there's already lots of duplicate reports about kdesu [09:05] crimsun: what are the resizing issues, btw? [09:05] most likely [09:05] the resizing issues apply to system settings [09:05] mornfall: I have no idea, I'm just using an example fatejudger mentioned [09:05] ah heh [09:05] where it just goes out of the resolution [09:05] okey [09:05] why do i constantly feel my konqueror in file mangling mode should be called "krasherer"? [09:05] guidance is silly, IMO [09:06] especially for people like me with tiny monitors === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #kubuntu === _owl [n=owl@ppp83-237-208-5.pppoe.mtu-net.ru] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [09:07] the only reason I haven't switched to Gnome already is because I'm pro-QT and pro-C++ [09:07] heh [09:07] gnome [09:07] Gnome definately is faster [09:07] and tons of useful apps are being developed on it [09:07] yeah, it also very quickly prints -- junk [09:07] fatejudger: like? [09:07] name one :) [09:07] like wireless utilities === aftertaf [n=aftertaf@sara2lee.agns.fr] has joined #kubuntu [09:07] and firefox is integrated in Gnome [09:08] fatejudger: that's utility not app, though [09:08] well, aside from what you like and dislike, fatejudger, I'd rather just drill down to the issues you have with Kubuntu 5.10 [09:08] and firefox is about as gnome as gimp is kde [09:08] crimsun: I would prefer to help fix things in some productive way rather than complaining [09:08] crimsun: but I can't really see any other option given that I don't know how to fix things [09:08] fatejudger: but you don't :) [09:08] fatejudger: ...which is what I've been attempting to do with you. === _owl [n=owl@ppp83-237-208-5.pppoe.mtu-net.ru] has joined #kubuntu [09:09] unfortunately, you choose to drone incessantly about unrelated drivel [09:09] any ideas on when konqueror will not require crash helmets to use? [09:09] nalioth: KDE 4? [09:09] fatejudger: right, you would have to invest something to learn and that's, uh, oh, ... you rather rant, that's easier... c'mon, talk is cheap [09:09] I'd rather learn === aftertaf [n=aftertaf@sara2lee.agns.fr] has joined #kubuntu [09:09] so why you don't? [09:10] because, I've already tried [09:10] it takes me too long, then I get a headache and have to go to sleep === _owl [n=owl@ppp83-237-208-5.pppoe.mtu-net.ru] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [09:10] people just give me links [09:10] fatejudger: two hints: download the breezy kwin source, and file a bug on kwin for breezy [09:10] and commands to apt get source [09:10] crimsun: I would prefer to help fix things in some productive way rather than complaining I have no bug numbers, I don't have time to report every problem I have with Linux [09:10] what does kwin do? [09:11] frank23: lol [09:11] fatejudger: you're not very consistent [09:11] frank23: well that's just misleading [09:11] fatejudger: it's the window manager [09:11] crimsun: what does the window manager have to do with the kdesu problem? [09:11] fatejudger: have you determined if all KDE apps have a resizing issue? [09:11] crimsun: or are you refering to the system settings problem? [09:11] crimsun: only system settings [09:11] crimsun: I can't click on certain buttons, or resize the window [09:11] crimsun: it locks itself [09:12] fatejudger: so the bug is probably in kcontrol (the control center, right)? [09:12] crimsun: I'm forced to use kcontrol, which between you and me really sucks [09:12] fatejudger: what about alt-drag? a decent workaround, i'd say === Hole [n=sapujaga@202.152.172.1] has joined #kubuntu [09:12] oh my!

I haven't used Kubuntu 5.10, so I'm in the dark here. [09:13] fatejudger: good that you complain that systemsettings shouldn't have been released... [09:13] mornfall: well it shouldn't have [09:13] mornfall: it should have been released later [09:13] fatejudger: so stop using goddamnitalready [09:13] +it [09:13] fatejudger: you can safely ignore it's existence [09:13] and voila, it's not released for you [09:13] happy now? [09:14] mornfall: because I'd rather fix it or complain and have other people fix it [09:14] fatejudger: people will fix it regardless of your incoherent rants [09:14] they're hardly incoherent === crimsun enqueues a kubuntu 5.10 live cd download [09:14] so just spare us [09:14] I have problems, they're quite real and legitimate [09:14] crimsun: any ideas on a konqueror recompile toward lessening the crashes? [09:15] and they happen on Breezy [09:15] fatejudger: so what? [09:15] fatejudger: everyone and their uncle have their problems [09:15] why do I never hear shit like this from the Gnome group? [09:15] I think they have their shit together [09:16] fatejudger: make a service to community, go use gnome instead, pretty please [09:16] Gnome sucks [09:16] I'm not going to use Gnome [09:16] uh, anyone know how to set up a TCP/IP network with a windows XP computer?

[09:17] The biggest problem that I know of in kubuntu breezy is the going to administration in kcontrol that often doesn't work. on the ubuntu bugzilla they link to the upstream bug on the kde bugzilla. Is there any way to put pressure somewhere to get this fixed? It makes kubuntu almost unusable (with the default install and without using workarounds) [09:18] why my kubuntu doesn't shutdown completely [09:18] nalioth: I'd have to be able to reproduce the crashers [09:18] fatejudger: alright...Ive got a DSL line connected to a speedtouch 510, which acts as a router...connected to that is a hub, into which i've plugged my kubuntu box and the XP machine... [09:18] fatejudger: no, because you are helping completely off topic [09:18] what's wrong with that [09:18] nalioth: (don't have Kubuntu 5.10 currently, so I'm queued for download) [09:18] gibarian: ok [09:18] fatejudger: both kubuntu and XP are connected to the Internet, but somehow I can't seem to get a connection between both [09:18] gibarian: you should be able to run the network setup wizard, or you could do it manually [09:19] crimsun: this is hoary that it keeps crashing on with kde 3.41 [09:19] gibarian: you mean Samba? === _florent [n=florent@84.4.161.230] has joined #kubuntu [09:19] nalioth: hmm, not using the kubuntu.org hoary-updates repo for hoary?

[07:35] the whole release announcement mentions a few things [07:36] for me the most palpable one was the difference in speed; very noticeable for me.

If you're just giong to stick to a position and rant about its truth there's not much point in discussion [08:53] othernoob: the fact you can use parentheses makes it even worse [08:53] I also take it you didn't read the Breezy release announcement, which **clearly** stated some of the nice things it adopts [08:53] apokryphos: it doesnt... [08:53] othernoob: well, what's the other difference in data input between speedcrunch and kcalc? [08:54] zyn: then something is wrong on your install [08:54] fun [08:54] apokryphos: what did you say was fixed? [08:54] apokryphos: new packages equal a "fix" ? [08:55] apokryphos: is a lack of packages a bug? [08:55] othernoob: how are (i) new packages; (ii) fixed packages necessarily not "problems" that "haven't been fixed". [08:55] othernoob: it surely can be [08:55] othernoob: i.e. a usable package manager for the given distro being missing... that is indeed a bug. [08:56] apokryphos: you may or may not remember that i've also stated long ago that the lack of repo maintainence sucks.. [08:56] othernoob: and now it really **does** sound like you haven't tried out any other distros [08:56] Debian-based systems have some of the best package management out there === ChaKy [n=chaky@83-131-130-153.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #kubuntu [08:57] apokryphos: "some of the best"..mmh. so what's better in your humble opinion? [08:57] othernoob: lack of repo maintenance? What are you smoking? [08:57] apokryphos: and i've used several distros [08:57] othernoob: so you can claim; it surely sounds like you haven't; or, not used them properly [08:58] thoreauputic: you know as well as me that only the security repos get updates. [08:58] thoreauputic: well, it must be good, he's babbling incoherently for hours now [08:58] othernoob: wrong [08:58] hahaha [08:58] othernoob: bug fixes as well [08:58] lol === apokryphos points othernoob to the breezy-updates repositories [08:59] thoreauputic: okay, bugs+security, but what about the rest? === apokryphos chuckles [08:59] are you telling me that the other repos get updated? no they don't === kkathman sees that "noob" is a critical component here [08:59] for the rest there's the backports repository; but Breezy hasn't been out for long, so they don't exist yet. [08:59] othernoob: umm - the whole *idea* is that the repos reamin stabe until the next release [08:59] kkathman: we were warned to not be thrown off by the nick ;-) [09:00] *remain stable [09:00] othernoob: that's simply how packaging works [09:00] aha!! I see...well...talk the talk and walk the walk I always say [09:00] thoreauputic: are you kidding me now? what was "stable" about the openoffice 2 beta release in hoary? [09:00] and that's just one example.. [09:00] othernoob: we are using the word in different senses [09:00] othernoob: the fact that it doesn't change in the lifetime of hoary? [09:01] othernoob: you don't get packages changing behaviour all of sudden (unless it was a serious bug) [09:01] mornfall: the fact that that release wasn't usable. === kkathman wonders why anyone wants to come into a channel and talk trash if they just dont want attention? hmm [09:01] errrr, yeah, sure it wasn't [09:01] apokryphos: don't make a fool out of yourself, even the OOo people said so. [09:01] hi. i have installed mysql server on breezy, but how is the admin password for the server? [09:01] what a moron *sigh* [09:01] othernoob: if you are so unhappy what are you doing here ? Find a distro that pleases you... [09:02] good there's ignore :) [09:02] thoreauputic, good call :) [09:02] othernoob: I think I'll leave it up to everyone else here to decide who's making a fool out of themselves. :) [09:02] ROFL [09:02] thoreauputic: since you weren't here earlier, i said i'm setting it up for someone else..

[09:04] i must admit it's been long time since i met such a troll [09:04] that's probably because i don't read #debian too often ;-) [09:04] othernoob: the discussion is offtopic; if you have a problem with understanding why it is, then /msg me or ask in -offtopic, but don't continue in here.
