|---|---|---|
| cryptom | yea, several times | 12:03 |
| LjL | ok, you know, those linux users, sometimes they think they never need to reboot ;-) | 12:03 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: which is pretty much true, except for new kernels :) | 12:04 |
| cryptom | the only thing that could be related is that i changed the LANG values in etc environment... but to be sure its not that, i changed my password to something stupid... | 12:04 |
| LjL | what's wrong with new kernels? | 12:04 |
| LjL | ah sorry, you mean when installing new kernels, don't you | 12:04 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: nothing - but you won't get a new one running without rebooting, obviously | 12:05 |
| LjL | yeah yeah, i misunderstood | 12:05 |
| thoreauputic | :) | 12:05 |
| LjL | tho i think i might have read somewhere that a "kernel hotswapping" system wasn't unthought of | 12:05 |

| kkathman | LJL I have Kontact continually running for like 2 weeks and it hasnt crashed on me | 12:09 |
| LjL | good for you :) seems to have calmed down anyway... basically KNode was crashing everytime i tried to download netnews | 12:10 |
| kkathman | ohh Knode is a different thing | 12:10 |
| kkathman | but thats not Kontact | 12:10 |
| LjL | oh well, it's run inside kontact isn't it... does kontact do anything at all by itself, anyway? | 12:11 |
| kkathman | LJL hmmm I dont think so | 12:11 |
| kkathman | Knode is a separate program | 12:12 |
| kkathman | Kontact is mail, contacts, and RSS reader | 12:12 |
| kkathman | it does have a newsreader but maybe thats knode?? Idunno | 12:12 |
| LjL | kkathman: Kontact has a "News" button on its sidebar, which lets you read NetNews using KNode as a KPart | 12:12 |
| LjL | but even mail... it ain't really Kontact doing mail, but KMail, AFAIK | 12:13 |

| kkathman | yah true enought | 12:14 |
| kkathman | I dont use the newsreader, or the addressbook per se | 12:15 |
| kkathman | just the mail and RSS | 12:15 |
| kkathman | Tm_T uses the whole thing tho I think | 12:15 |
| kkathman | I DO have knode installed as a separate program...and wasnt too pleased with it | 12:15 |

| seth_k | hehe | 12:45 |
| Sgep | WINE 0.9 is? | 12:45 |
| seth_k | kde packages contain ALLLL of KDE. Kubuntu packages are hand-picked parts of KDE that we think people will use | 12:45 |
| nalioth | troth: it means you're already done | 12:45 |
| seth_k | so Kubuntu packages contain the KDE base system, and some KDE apps | 12:45 |
| seth_k | but not all of them | 12:46 |
| kkathman | Sgep: I dunno the version | 12:46 |
| seth_k | however, they're all just metapackage | 12:46 |
| seth_k | none of them actually contain anything, they just depend on other apps | 12:46 |
| smonkey | OK> That makes sense. | 12:46 |

| LjL | the bad thing about linux is that (like has happened a few times before) i'm not going to sleep at night until i decide whether to commit to ubuntu or use debian | 12:59 |
| funkyHat | can anyone help me with this? http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/4050 | 12:59 |
| LjL | well i do actually use both anyway, since debian is installed on my server, but that's not quite the same thing | 01:00 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: well, I'm a former Debianista - but Ubuntu has all the advantages and more for me ( you can still use it just like Debian, but it has the 6 monthly release buzz and a great community) | 01:01 |
| thoreauputic | I had debian woody on my old pentium until a few months ago - but now it's running breezy :) | 01:02 |
| LjL | the main advantage for me, at the moment, is that contrary to debian, ubuntu just installed and worked, with X and all | 01:02 |
| funkyHat | my take is debian is great (probably better) for use as a server, and ubuntu for a desktop | 01:02 |
| smonkey | This is going to get me lynched, but I like Slackware. | 01:02 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: yes, ubuntu was the first distro to just work out of the box for me | 01:02 |
| LjL | but, i'm starting to get anxious about updates... maybe it's just a debian thing, but i haven't seen an update from aptitude dist-upgrade since i installed breezy | 01:03 |
| LjL | makes me nervous =) | 01:03 |
| thoreauputic | smonkey: no, slackware is a good distro too | 01:03 |
| funkyHat | oo... i have an upday. | 01:03 |
| funkyHat | *update | 01:03 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: heh - different release strategies | 01:03 |
| funkyHat | doh, 1/2 qwerty 1/2 dvorak! :S | 01:04 |
| LjL | thoreauputic: suppose so, but at least i hope i'll be getting some updates when backports is ready (whenever it's going to be ready, that is) | 01:04 |
| LjL | i just can't live with no decent updates for 6 months :o) | 01:04 |
| thoreauputic | smonkey: I've used slack, and vector which is a slack derivative - I liked both but I'm now used to the debian way so I'm staying with Ubuntu | 01:05 |
| === funkyHat is moving towards gentoo | ||
| === funkyHat runs away before he is shot | ||
| thoreauputic | LjL: well, backports are OK as long as you know what you are doing | 01:05 |
| smonkey | Is there any advantage in using systemsettings over kcontrol? | 01:05 |
| kkathman | gentoo is great if you are a developer and do alot of compiling | 01:06 |
| thoreauputic | funkyHat: have fun watching screens of gcc output roll by ;) | 01:06 |
| kkathman | exactly | 01:06 |
| LjL | apt is the coolest thing since hot water, although apt*itude* (and all the related package-removal facilities) really should be integrated in all the GUI package managers... i'm forced to use the console just because Adept, Synaptic and friends can't support what aptitude does | 01:06 |
| smonkey | thoreauputic: I am definetly fond of Slackware. It was the first distro I used seriously. I still run it on my laptop. | 01:06 |
| funkyHat | i want to steal some stuff from debian/ubuntu though. gentoo's plug and play USB support is pretty poor | 01:07 |
| LjL | thoreauputic: what do you mean, backports aren't going to just work like other packages? i thought so | 01:07 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: hmm - yes a GUI frontend for aptitude would be nice I guess | 01:07 |
| kkathman | LjL: I have used apt since going to the distro 3 releases back...I really like apt..very fast and easy to learn and use | 01:07 |
| kkathman | and kynaptic, synaptic all basically frontended it I suppose | 01:07 |
| funkyHat | i don't mind setting it up, but i shouldn't have to configure stuff for every memory stick/other thing i plug in! | 01:08 |
| LjL | thoreauputic: well, if it were for me, i wouldn't make *a* GUI frontend -- i would integrated aptitude features into the main APT system. after all, the auto-removal of packages just simply makes sense | 01:08 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: they will work - but sometimes with backports you can get unexpected breakages - hopefully the breezy backports will be better | 01:08 |
| kkathman | funkyHat: my memory stick worked fine..and just about anything else I plug in...at least so far :) | 01:08 |
| LjL | thoreauputic: if it's somewhere between debian unstable and testing, it'd be ok... i'm used to debian packages breaking sometimes after updating | 01:09 |
| funkyHat | yes, that's what i don't like about gentoo | 01:09 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: that's what I meant about knowing what you are doing | 01:09 |
| smonkey | thoreauputic: The one thing I found Debian/Ubuntu to have over Slackware is the number of available packages. | 01:10 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: as the Debian people say "If it breaks you get to keep both pieces" | 01:10 |
| funkyHat | actually, my take is gentoo is best suited to environments where performance in a limited range of applications is important | 01:10 |
| LjL | thoreauputic: i don't really know if i do :-) really, if it's worse than debian unstable, i suppose i could really get into some trouble | 01:10 |

| thoreauputic | funkyHat: but gentoo has a nice packaging system - I just don't have time for compiling everything (yes, I know you don't *have* to) | 01:14 |

| john-robinson | any gurus here? | 01:19 |

| smonkey | thoreauputic: He did say he had a lot of time to waste. | 01:19 |
| thoreauputic | funkyHat: woah - have you heard of apt-get build-dep? Or apt-get -b <package> ? and so on... | 01:19 |
| john-robinson | and my question is: which via (Unichrome) driver does kubuntu 5.10 ship with? | 01:19 |
| LjL | thoreauputic: i was thinking precisely of that... really, i do wonder how easy it would be (and how comparable to gentoo's way) to build a system using apt-get source and apt-get build-dep | 01:20 |

| === sylwester [n=sylweste@c68-241.icpnet.pl] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] | ||
| LjL | me neither, i suppose, but it'd be interesting to know | 01:21 |
| funkyHat | thoreauputic, no, what's that in relationship to? | 01:21 |
| LjL | well i suppose that Gentoo offers some user-friendly way to choose configure options (and get dependencies accordingly), that apt packages don't | 01:21 |
| thoreauputic | funkyHat: the point being that you can use a Debian packaging system to satisfy all compiling dependencies | 01:22 |
| LjL | funkyHat: "apt-get source <package>" downloads the source-code version of a package | 01:22 |
| funkyHat | me mentioning dependencies and such with compiling a system from scratch? | 01:22 |
| funkyHat | ah right | 01:22 |
| thoreauputic | funkyHat: right | 01:22 |
| LjL | funkyHat: "apt-get build-dep <package>" downloads the source dependencies for the package | 01:22 |
| funkyHat | ok | 01:22 |
| LjL | funkyHat: "apt-get -b <package>" builds the package and creates a binary .deb package | 01:23 |
| john-robinson | LjL: yes it does, not fantastically user-friendly, but obviously dependencies vary depending on the --with-options you pass to configure, and it gets that right | 01:23 |
| propagandhi | john-robinson: http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/x11/xserver-xorg-driver-via | 01:23 |
| funkyHat | but debian doesn't provide a way to easily manage what gets compiled in ;) | 01:23 |
| thoreauputic | and apt-get install apt-howto tells you more than you ever wanted to know on the subject ;) | 01:23 |
| LjL | john-robinson: yeah, i presumed that would be the main attractive over using source apt or something like that | 01:23 |
| LjL | john-robinson: when compiling from source, i can definitely see how useful it would be to have dependencies downloaded automatically taken from the configure options | 01:24 |
| LjL | john-robinson: with debian/ubuntu, i'm constantly doing "./configure" [error!] , "apt-get install source-package", "./configure" [error!] , etc | 01:24 |
| funkyHat | i know, it's an odd test-case, but it shows that gentoo can (in a very few cases, perhaps 3? ;)) have a serious advantage over binary distros | 01:24 |

| thoreauputic | hehehe - now I can tell everyone how off-topic they are ;) | 01:27 |
| === funkyHat smiles sweetly | ||

| LjL | thoreauputic: are you actually using auto-apt? | 01:28 |

| === mode/#kubuntu [-o thoreauputic] by thoreauputic | ||
| thoreauputic | LjL: hardly ever :) | 01:28 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: I sometimes use apt-get build-dep | 01:28 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: but I only compile stuff like the latest fluxbox, mostly | 01:29 |
| LjL | i find that build-dep usually tries to install waay to much stuff... also, it doesn't work well with aptitude :( | 01:29 |
| nalioth | LjL: why do you do all that writing? | 01:29 |
| LjL | i only compile stuff like the stuff that isn't in ubuntu (or debian, depending), mostly | 01:30 |
| nalioth | LjL: let apt-get do the work for you | 01:30 |
| LjL | nalioth: what are you referring to? | 01:30 |
| === laszlok [n=laszlo@134.117.187.134] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| nalioth | LjL: compiling stuff | 01:30 |
| LjL | nalioth: well, on one hand, i often compile stuff that does *not* come in a package... and on the other hand, as i said, build-dep is often too fond of installing stuff | 01:31 |
| LjL | ... stuff that can't be automatically removed with aptitude later, morepver | 01:32 |
| LjL | i mean -- if i install "xlibs-dev" using aptitude, for example, it will install a ton of dependencies... but i can just do "aptitude remove xlibs-dev" and all the dependencies will be removed automatically, without needing to keep track of them | 01:32 |
| LjL | but if i use apt-get's source package commodities, this doesn't work anymore | 01:33 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: it can be quite useful to keep those deps hanging around, I find - subsequent compiles often use similar libs etc and I don't have to get them again | 01:35 |
| thoreauputic | but that assumes you have some space for the stuff | 01:35 |
| LjL | yeah | 01:36 |
| LjL | and that's the problem :) | 01:36 |
| LjL | that stuff often comes at the cost of some hundred megs | 01:36 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: there's always deborphan | 01:36 |
| thoreauputic | and debfoster | 01:37 |
| LjL | i know... but when you use aptitude, apt-get, deborphan and friends just tend to get in the way, unfortunately | 01:37 |
| LjL | really, i think "the aptitude way" ought to be integrated in the whole APT system | 01:37 |
| nalioth | LjL: aptitude parses the dpkg installed db | 01:38 |
| LjL | having the lone aptitude program using logics that are incompatible with most other apt-related programs is a weak point for APT, imho | 01:38 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: given he usual pace of Debian changes, you might get your wish in about a decade or so <grin> | 01:39 |
| LjL | hehe | 01:39 |
| === freeflying [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.35] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| LjL | anyway, really, deborphan and all that is all stuff that i *do* use, just inconsistently | 01:39 |
| LjL | i think i'll really have a serious look at auto-apt | 01:40 |
| LjL | if auto-apt can be made to run an "aptitude unmarkauto <just-installed-package>" for everything it installs, i think it'd come very useful for compiling | 01:40 |
| LjL | sorry, i meant "aptitude MARKauto" | 01:40 |
| LjL | so that the next time aptitude is run, the auto-apt installed packages get removed | 01:41 |
| === gerardocb [n=gcontrer@148.233.33.113] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| thoreauputic | LjL: or just use debfoster and it will ask if you want them removed | 01:42 |
| LjL | don't forget also "dpkg -l | grep "ii" | grep "\-dev", and then remove everything you don't like ;-) | 01:43 |
| LjL | that's the way i do it most often :) | 01:43 |
| === thoreauputic doesn't really bother too much, and just runs apt-get autoclean once in a while | ||
| LjL | you probably just have more diskpace than i :) | 01:45 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: well, I just don't have a lot of big p0rn videos ;-) | 01:46 |
| LjL | hey hey what are you insinuating? :-P | 01:46 |
| funkyHat | can anyone help me with this? http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/4050 S( | 01:46 |
| funkyHat | :( | 01:46 |
| thoreauputic | Hehe | 01:46 |
| kkathman | thoreauputic: now that you mention it...I was reading apt-get autoclean and didnt exactly get the diff between it and just clean | 01:47 |
| kkathman | is the diff that autoclean will locate sub-dependencies that arent needed any more? | 01:48 |
| thoreauputic | kkathman: autoclean just wipes stuff that's outdated - clean wipes everything | 01:48 |
| kkathman | so when would you ever use clean then? | 01:48 |
| thoreauputic | kkathman: autoclean wipes packages that aren't ever going to be used again | 01:48 |
| LjL | kkathman: both clean and autoclean only wipe out the *cache*, not the actual installed stuff | 01:49 |
| LjL | cache = the downloaded .deb's, basically | 01:49 |
| thoreauputic | kkathman: well, clean will get you a big chunk of disc space | 01:49 |
| kkathman | hmm wonder why that wasnt apt-cache clean then...makes more sense I guess | 01:49 |
| kkathman | lol | 01:49 |
| LjL | kkathman: yeah, that's something i often type by mistake ;) | 01:50 |
| thoreauputic | kkathman: are you questioning the ways of apt ? | 01:50 |
| === thoreauputic makes horrible #debian noises | ||
| kkathman | ok...so say I do an apt-get install on a package....then do a remove... I know that doesnt always remove everything that was installed... | 01:50 |
| LjL | (the other thing i always type by mistake is "ls --sort=date" instaed of "ls --sort=time", i never ever once can remember which one is right) | 01:50 |
| kkathman | so its best to do an apt-get autoclean possibly after a remove? | 01:50 |
| LjL | kkathman: you should do an "aptitude install" and then an "aptitude remove", if you want everything that was installed to be removed | 01:50 |
| thoreauputic | kkathman: to remove the config files you add --purge | 01:51 |
| LjL | kkathman: *that*'s precisely the big advantage of aptitude over apt-get | 01:51 |
| kkathman | ahh I see | 01:51 |
| kkathman | hmm | 01:51 |
| kkathman | and all this time Ive used apt | 01:51 |
| === kkathman blames thoreauputic :) | ||
| kkathman | hehe | 01:51 |
| thoreauputic | kkathman: apt-get autoclean has nothing to do with dependencies really - it just clears out the debs you don't need | 01:52 |
| thoreauputic | ie the outdated ones in the cache | 01:52 |
| LjL | apt-get clean (or autoclean) is basically just for "hell, my disk is full, help!" | 01:52 |
| thoreauputic | right | 01:52 |
| LjL | it's a bit like clearing your browser's cache 'cause you're out of space | 01:52 |
| kkathman | one other question...lately Ive had probs making .. ie. compiling...should I be downloading these into /usr/bin/local to make/make install cuz I seem to have problems with permissions | 01:53 |
| thoreauputic | kkathman: heh - well might yu blame me; I have always used apt-get although I now know aptitude is a better way | 01:53 |

| txakoli | thanks for your help | 01:59 |
| LjL | txakoli: that | 01:59 |
| txakoli | i new in linux | 02:00 |
| LjL | txakoli: that's basically the way to install any program | 02:00 |
| LjL | txakoli: to *find* programs, you should do "apt-cache search <words to search>" | 02:00 |
| LjL | when you find the program you needed, it's "aptitude install <program-name>" | 02:00 |
| LjL | amule's program name is just, well, "amule" :) | 02:00 |
| txakoli | but konsole tell me...are you root? and is imposible install any program. I don't kwon to do | 02:01 |
| LjL | try "apt-cache search donkey", and you'll find a lot of edonkey/emule related programs | 02:01 |
| thoreauputic | txakoli: use sudo | 02:01 |
| LjL | right, you must be root, which in Ubuntu means typing "sudo" before the command | 02:02 |
| LjL | in this case, "sudo aptitude install amule" | 02:02 |
| thoreauputic | txakoli: like sudo aptitude install <nameofpackage> | 02:02 |

| fatejudger_ | my usb mouse is just right, but my cursor just goes flying across the screen when I use my touchpad | 02:44 |
| LjL | guess so... i mean, paris is basically the only really big city in france, while italy is more made of many smaller cities... however, rome is still rome | 02:44 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: mind you I've never met a Frenchman who would admit not having been to Paris ;-) | 02:45 |

| LjL | thoreauputic: well, it's easy to "have been" somewhere if you just extend your definition of "having been" ;-) for example, i've been in London | 02:45 |

| LjL | only, that was in Heathrow, and for one hour or so | 02:46 |
| thoreauputic | LjL: right, and I've "been" in Aden and Port Said | 02:46 |

| fatejudger | it does seem weird that the speed changes that much | 02:56 |
| LjL | an informal sort-of bug report: "System Settings" ignores the fact that I've set up KDE to use double-clicking for opening icons | 02:56 |
| smonkey | fatejudger: You could list multiple pointers in your x config file | 02:57 |
| fatejudger | system settings is really messed up | 02:57 |
| LjL | well, i think it's quite new as a program | 02:57 |
| smonkey | fatejudger: By default the x config file probably uses /dev/mice as the pointer, which is a device for all mice. | 02:58 |
| fatejudger | smonkey: then why would the speed be so different? | 02:58 |
| smonkey | fatejudger: for the 'general' device? because each mouse reports movement differently. | 02:59 |
| smonkey | fatejudger: I would imagine, but I am not sure, that if specify the mice seperatey in the configuration file for X, then there is a way to specify a sensitivity for each device. | 03:01 |

| smonkey | ond. Setting this is only supported for some mice, including | 03:08 |
| smonkey | some Logitech mice and some PS/2 mice on some platforms. | 03:08 |
| smonkey | Default: whatever the mouse is already set to. | 03:08 |
| smonkey | fatejudger: thats from the mouse(4x) man page | 03:08 |
| smonkey | I don't know if it will work, but it's worth a try. | 03:09 |
| fatejudger | smonkey: how will that let me set the speed for multiple mice though? | 03:09 |
| smonkey | fatejudger: I thought you wanted to set it for a specific mouse. | 03:10 |
| smonkey | fatejudger: If you try setting that option (or maybe the resolution option) for /dev/input/mice it will be applied to all mice. | 03:12 |

| kkathman | oh.. ok...I'll butt out | 06:12 |
| nickl | lock file, is what i'm calling it, maybe something is holding it from the last action it was doing and doesn't like me or something, i don't know | 06:12 |
| nickl | i'll try that nalioth, though i just rebooted | 06:12 |

| nickl | but if you think that's better kkathman ok | 06:13 |
| kkathman | its kind of a guideline, so I've been told :) | 06:14 |
| nickl | ok, sounds good | 06:14 |
| nickl | well nothing running anymore nalioth, all apt-get, etc.. | 06:15 |

| kkathman | oh ok | 06:42 |
| kkathman | thought we had some major malfunction there | 06:42 |
| nickl | ya that would be | 06:43 |
| kkathman | can you do a cd /etc/apt then do a ls -l and look to see whether it has root root in the middle? | 06:43 |

| nickl | ya i know this is throwing me for a loop | 06:45 |
| nickl | it was working just before i ran the adept updater.. | 06:46 |
| nickl | and maybe twice after that, | 06:46 |
| kkathman | you did have correct repos for breezy right? | 06:46 |
| nickl | then i went to get nvidia drivers and it did this to me | 06:46 |
| nickl | ya, i only added multiverse | 06:46 |
| nickl | something similar to that if not that | 06:47 |
| kkathman | hmm wonder if aptitude is effected? | 06:47 |
| nickl | i can look | 06:47 |
| kkathman | yah you should look at that | 06:47 |
| kkathman | just look using a console editor, vi or nano.... /etc/apt/sources.list | 06:47 |

| Delvien | kkathman but its the clock only that needs to be fixed | 06:50 |
| kkathman | Delvien: I dont know of a font setting...try swtiching modes.. and see if that fixes it | 06:50 |
| kkathman | like switch to analog...then back | 06:50 |
| kkathman | or plain and back | 06:51 |
| nickl | kkathman: all say breezy | 06:51 |
| kkathman | well ok | 06:51 |
| Delvien | nope | 06:51 |
| kkathman | nickl: Im all for the blocking and tackling approach | 06:52 |
| kkathman | something is fundamentally messed up | 06:52 |
| nickl | ya it's odd | 06:52 |
| kkathman | I have run the ADept Updater every day since the upgrade | 06:52 |
| kkathman | and no probs | 06:52 |
| kkathman | so... | 06:52 |
| Delvien | it doesnt bother me that much , but hey | 06:52 |
| nickl | ya maybe since i added deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main restricted universe multiverse | 06:53 |
| Delvien | kkathman no i installed a new driver for my video card from ATI site, not from repos | 06:53 |
| kkathman | yah its a nuisance Delvien I know | 06:53 |
| kkathman | nickl: thats a problem...cuz they arent really active | 06:53 |
| nickl | humm oops.. not good | 06:53 |
| kkathman | yah | 06:54 |
| kkathman | I'd remove those | 06:54 |
| kkathman | and I'd say do a sudo apt-get update but you probably cant | 06:54 |
| nickl | guess i have choice #1 reinstall, or #2 goto bed and do it tomorrow | 06:54 |
| kkathman | lol | 06:54 |
| nickl | unless there is a downgrade option | 06:55 |
| kkathman | yah people with much more experience, esp insanekane, have been with you...if they cant figure it out...thats tough | 06:55 |
| nickl | i added that repository to add msttfonts | 06:55 |

| kkathman | its in multiverse | 06:56 |
| nickl | ya i did that and i think that messed up everything else | 06:57 |
| nickl | since i then ran system update | 06:57 |
| kkathman | yah Im not sure what those backports did for you | 06:57 |
| nickl | i just might start over | 06:57 |
| nickl | more practice i guess | 06:57 |
| kkathman | yah prolly not a bad idea | 06:57 |
| kkathman | its painless | 06:57 |
| nickl | any thoughts about how to install xinerama? | 06:58 |
| nickl | i just copied my old xorg.conf | 06:58 |
| nickl | but things are different and i thought maybe there is a gui now for that stuff | 06:58 |
| kkathman | nalioth probably knows | 06:58 |
| nickl | maybe i'm wrong | 06:58 |
| kkathman | not familiar with it | 06:58 |
| nickl | well hey thank you much for your help | 06:59 |
| === nalioth knows what? | ||
| kkathman | theres a lib for libxinerrama | 06:59 |
| nickl | ya i installed that | 06:59 |
| kkathman | libxinerama-dev - X11 Xinerama extension library (development headers) | 06:59 |
| kkathman | libxinerama1 - X11 Xinerama extension library | 06:59 |
| kkathman | libxinerama1-dbg - X11 Xinerama extension library (debug package) | 06:59 |
| nickl | nalioth: knows best way to install xinerama? | 06:59 |
| nickl | and edit xorg.conf other then using my old file from fc2 | 07:00 |
| nalioth | nickl: thought we were having apt problems | 07:00 |
| nickl | yes i am | 07:01 |
| nickl | but i'm thinking of just doing a whole new install | 07:01 |

| nickl | and i was wondering if there was a better way to install xinerama, maybe a gui to setup the xorg.conf or something | 07:01 |
| kkathman | im not sure you'll need it...KDE has lots of tools for tweaking the gui | 07:02 |

| joss | only for control panel modules? | 07:25 |
| joss | aah crimsun hello, you are running 5.10? | 07:26 |
| joss | Kawabunga! The traditional KDE Control Center has been replaced with KDE System Settings. This change is not part of KDE, but is unique to Kubuntu. The new interface is cleaner, faster, simpler and comes with improved usability features such as quick search. | 07:26 |

| dwangoac | Greetings - anyone active? (Better question - anyone mind helping me with a strange Kubuntu GUI settings issue?) | 08:21 |
| aftertaf | active yeah :) | 08:22 |
| aftertaf | strange gui? i dunno :) | 08:22 |
| nalioth | does it have a tattoo? | 08:22 |
| dwangoac | Heh | 08:22 |
| aftertaf | lol | 08:22 |
| dwangoac | A tattoo would be interesting :) | 08:22 |
| aftertaf | howdy partner ;) | 08:22 |
| dwangoac | Actually, I'm running Kubuntu 5.10 and I can't get into the administrator mode of most of the KDE settings, like Samba. | 08:23 |
| dwangoac | So, if I go to Settings --> Network --> Samba --> Administrator mode, it prompts for my password but then returns me to a greyed-out interface. | 08:24 |
| aftertaf | dwangoac: its a bug.... try a different tool that also needs sudo access, then try th admin tools again... it should work after that | 08:24 |
| dwangoac | I'm checking out the FAQ now. | 08:24 |
| nalioth | dwangoac: known bug | 08:25 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, better yet, do it from the command line because kubuntu 5.10 gui networking tools are generally broken | 08:26 |
| dwangoac | eww - that's not a good thing :) | 08:26 |
| dwangoac | Badly broken enough that I should stick with Hoary 5.04? | 08:26 |
| aftertaf | dwangoac: hehe true, but you get to learn consloe commands that way.... its intended (maybe ;)) | 08:27 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, if you want visual networking tools for X, then 5.10 isnt ready yet | 08:27 |
| dwangoac | OK, so in that case, what file should I be looking at to enable Samba? I can't remember the config path. | 08:27 |
| kairu0 | that rhymed unintentionally | 08:27 |
| dwangoac | heh - you're right, it did. :) | 08:28 |
| nalioth | dwangoac: not at all | 08:28 |
| dwangoac | BTW, thanks to everyone who just started helping me out - I've had a heck of a time googling some of this stuff, as most of the results I've come up with have been irrelevant. | 08:29 |
| kairu0 | to enable samba, its a /etc/init.d thing | 08:29 |
| kairu0 | to CONFIGURE samba, its ummm err i forget | 08:30 |
| kairu0 | *takes a bow* | 08:30 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: enabling it is one thing - how do I configure it so I can access it from a Windows box without a password (i.e. shared level access to a specific folder with media content in it)? | 08:30 |
| dwangoac | (Or, more directly, where does the Samba config file live?) | 08:31 |
| kairu0 | i want to say /etc/smb.conf but hang on | 08:31 |
| kairu0 | i think im right | 08:32 |
| dwangoac | aftertaf: I just found that the command kdesu kcontrol should get around the issue of not being able to enter administartor mode. I'm trying that now. | 08:32 |
| aftertaf | hehe ok. | 08:33 |
| dwangoac | Although it looks like that command *has* to be run with sudo, as it just does nothing otherwise. Sucky. | 08:34 |
| dwangoac | OK, I think I should step back a bit: I went to Kubuntu 5.10 to get OOo 2.0, but I'm getting the impression that it's not very stable. How many people here tried it and stuck with it as opposed to bailing back to something else? | 08:34 |
| aftertaf | dwangoac: most things arefine, seriously... | 08:35 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, thats one of my 2 problems with it. i'd never go back | 08:35 |
| aftertaf | a couple of bugs like that, but they are known about and will be repaired soonish. And there are ways around them.. like you found out. | 08:35 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, and dont sudo a kde config app. | 08:35 |
| dwangoac | That's a good thing. | 08:35 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: OK, I won't :) | 08:35 |
| dwangoac | (It won't launch if I don't, though) | 08:35 |
| kairu0 | i know | 08:36 |
| aftertaf | dwangoac: use theforce, ie console ;) | 08:36 |
| dwangoac | O | 08:36 |
| kairu0 | sudo kcontrol for example will probably break you | 08:36 |
| dwangoac | er, I'm definitely not afraid of the console, just less than familiar with the major disparities between different config files. | 08:36 |
| aftertaf | dwangoac: what did you want to change in network config? | 08:36 |
| aftertaf | dwangoac: so am/was i. but i am learning. | 08:36 |
| dwangoac | Well, I should start from the top: I have two problems, namely SMB shares aren't working at all, and for some reason attempting to open bit torrent files in Firefox fails to do anything at all. | 08:37 |
| dwangoac | I'm using Firefox 1.07 and Azureus, which was a combination that was working fine under Hoary. | 08:37 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: I've been unable to find the SMB configuration file - it's not in /etc, but I'm still looking for it... | 08:39 |
| nalioth | dwangoac: in a terminal, "locate smb.conf" | 08:42 |
| dwangoac | nalioth: OK, that was quick - /etc/samba/mb.conf | 08:43 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, what about /etc/smb or /etc/samba | 08:44 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: it was definitely /etc/samba/smb.conf, it's just my ls -R search wasn't listing it (I probably did it wrong). I've had poor luck with locate in the past as it's never actually worked, so I'm glad it brought up the right file. | 08:45 |
| nalioth | dwangoac: this is the specially grown and trained kubuntu 'locate' | 08:47 |
| dwangoac | OK, so I manually edited smb.conf for share level access (to allow my less intelligent Windows box to see my share). I don't see anything SMB / Samba related in etc/init.d - where woudl I restart it at? | 08:47 |
| dwangoac | nalioth: That's pretty cool - that'd explain why it worked this time. :) | 08:48 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, you can also use find / -name xyz too | 08:48 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, it really should be in /etc/init.d maybe smbxxxxx | 08:49 |
| dwangoac | nothing here - there are quite a few items in here like fetchmail and the like, but nothing SMB related. | 08:50 |
| kairu0 | ok | 08:50 |
| kairu0 | maybe you have samba client but not samba server installed | 08:50 |
| dwangoac | That would be strange... Doesn't the shipping config of Kubuntu come with the Samba server? | 08:51 |
| kairu0 | i dont know. does anyone know? | 08:51 |
| kairu0 | i mean, i dont have it installed and i didnt by default | 08:51 |
| rikva | dwangoac: install samba-server | 08:52 |
| dwangoac | That would make sense - give me just a bit to apt-get it... | 08:52 |
| rikva | dwangoac: it ships with samba-common | 08:52 |
| aftertaf | i dont think samba server is installed by default, no net services that open ports are | 08:52 |
| rikva | you need to install samba-server to get server functionalities | 08:52 |
| dwangoac | rikva: is that a change from how Hoary was set up? | 08:52 |
| dwangoac | I don't recall needing to do that with Hoary | 08:52 |
| rikva | I don't know, I recently helped a classmate with this | 08:52 |
| dwangoac | I defnitely appreciate the pointer (and quite the obvious solution, too - I should have thought of that myself) | 08:53 |
| rikva | np :) | 08:53 |
| dwangoac | OK, while I'm waiting for Adept updater to finish, what's the easiest way on Kubuntu 5.10 to install the final release of OOo 2.0? I see that what ships by default is the beta and I'm not sure of the easiest way to upgrade. | 08:54 |
| rikva | I think the final release isn't in the repositories yet | 08:56 |
| rikva | correct me if i'm wrong | 08:56 |

| ilba7r | hi I need some help in choosing a notebook to run on ubuntu. I am concerned of speed and have two notebooks nearly same price. One 2Ghz centrino 512 DDR2 RAM. The other is 1.7 GHZ 1 GB RAM. Any ideas which is better for speed ram or cpu speed? | 08:58 |
| rikva | dwangoac: hm, i think you need to enable universe/multiverse | 08:58 |
| kairu0 | the 1gb ram notebook would win that race | 08:59 |
| dwangoac | rikva: I found another package just named "samba" - not sure if that was it... | 08:59 |
| rikva | dwangoac: mom | 08:59 |
| dwangoac | rikva: Eh? mom? | 09:00 |
| kairu0 | ilba7r, the different between 1.7 and 2.0 ghz isnt great. the difference between 512 and 1024 ram is huge. | 09:00 |
| rikva | dwangoac: mom = moment ;) | 09:00 |
| dwangoac | rikva: Now that's one I haven't seen in years. Thanks for the reminder. :) | 09:00 |
| rikva | dwangoac: i think... you need package samba. not samba-common, samba. | 09:00 |
| rikva | or better, both ;) | 09:00 |
| rikva | that should be it | 09:01 |
| dwangoac | rikva: Yep, that's the conclusion I just came to - I installed it and it launched, but it complained about a bunch of things under account_policY_get like min password length returning 0 | 09:01 |
| ilba7r | kairu and how will the hard disk speed fit in for example 7200 or 5400 | 09:01 |
| rikva | damn. | 09:01 |
| rikva | dwangoac: I'm afraid I can't help you with that | 09:01 |
| nalioth | it's not about hardware specs, it's about 'linux friendliness' | 09:02 |
| dwangoac | rikva: I think it's alright - after I did all updates I was able to get in to kcontrol / admin mode, and it looks like the shares are there. I'm headed to my windows box to see if ican access it. | 09:02 |

| kairu0 | thats a whole wm dude hehehe | 09:16 |
| fatejudger | plastik is beautiful | 09:16 |
| fatejudger | what the hell are you talking about | 09:16 |
| kairu0 | its good | 09:16 |
| kairu0 | but its hurting my eyes after long use | 09:16 |
| fatejudger | Enlightenment is on Ubuntu???? | 09:16 |
| kairu0 | yes | 09:17 |
| fatejudger | how big? | 09:17 |
| fatejudger | and what is so good about enlightenment? | 09:19 |
| ilba7r | fatejudger you have to run enlightenment to know what is good about it. basically speed and elegence | 09:20 |
| fatejudger | what language is it written in? | 09:20 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, e performs better than kwm or metacity and looks twice as good | 09:21 |
| fatejudger | is it faster than gnome? | 09:21 |
| kairu0 | hell yes | 09:21 |
| ilba7r | hell faster | 09:21 |
| kairu0 | its faster than icewm | 09:21 |
| fatejudger | and what language is it written in? | 09:21 |
| kairu0 | wow ilba7r and i are saying practically the same things hehe | 09:21 |
| ilba7r | kairu0 i will not go as far as faster then icewm | 09:21 |
| ilba7r | or open box | 09:21 |
| kairu0 | i'll look it up | 09:22 |
| dwangoac | OK, thanks to those who helped me fix my Samba problem (resolved by adept update and setting adavanced filesharing). Furthermore, OpenOffice 2 was easy to upgrade by adding deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2 ./ to my source.list and doing an upgrade, so I'm good there too. | 09:22 |
| fatejudger | can you use programs written for KDE or Gnome in Enlightenment? | 09:23 |
| kairu0 | hmm i cant find the benchmarks where they use to be. anyway, i THINK it draws windows faster than icewm | 09:23 |
| dwangoac | Last problem I'll try to get help for tonight that I don't see any information on: Azureus (bit torrent client) can't send or receive data... any idea why? | 09:23 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, yes..but e is generally better with gnome stuff than kde | 09:23 |
| ilba7r | kairu i run them both | 09:24 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, azureus works for me. are you behind i firewall? | 09:24 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: Nope, just a router, and it's not the problem - nothing changed between my hoary install which worked and this install, and if I switch to windows it's fine. | 09:24 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, e17 is pretty damned sweet (i used it for a while), but its not stable yet | 09:24 |

| gibarian | Hey everyone | 09:24 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: oh, it isn't stable | 09:25 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, i get an error about blocked port 6881 and if i click it, then it works after that | 09:25 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: well then I guess I can't use it right? | 09:25 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, you can for fun. i wouldnt make it my default environment | 09:25 |
| ilba7r | you can try e16 but the different is huge between the two | 09:25 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, e16 is stable, but its not as cool | 09:25 |
| === insanekane [n=kane@202.83.32.211] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| dwangoac | kairu0: There's no blocked port on this one - it's fully forwarded, based on IP address... I can't even receive a single byte, but AFAIK Kubuntu doesn't ship with a firewall. | 09:25 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: I thought about using a different client, but none of them showed up in Adept or Synaptec. | 09:26 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: how is not as cool? | 09:27 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, it doesnt look as sweet or perform quite as well | 09:27 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, its stable though | 09:27 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: then I should stay with KDE right? | 09:27 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: KDE hasn't ever let me down | 09:27 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: it's written in C++, and uses the beautiful QT libraries | 09:27 |

| kairu0 | fatejudger, well enlightenment isnt an environment. its just a window manager. you'd probably miss your panels and control widgets from kde. | 09:28 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, are you using the right java? | 09:28 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: what do you mean? | 09:28 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: That's a very good question - AFAIK I am, but what is "right"? | 09:29 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: what environment does it use then? | 09:29 |
| gibarian | uh, I'm having a serious problem with my USB printer...anyone? | 09:29 |
| fatejudger | gibarian: just say what your problem is | 09:29 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: I'm using jre1.5.0.05 | 09:29 |
| fatejudger | gibarian: don't just ask whether someone will help, most of us will look | 09:30 |
| insanekane | gibarian: whats the problem ? | 09:30 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, enlightenment gives you a right-click menu and a virtual desktop switcher in the corner, but the rest is up to you. aka you wouldnt even have desktop icons unless you loaded a module to draw them | 09:30 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: I don't want desktop icons | 09:30 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: as long as I have multiple desktops | 09:30 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: and a taskbar | 09:30 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: I'm quite happy | 09:30 |
| gibarian | fatejudger: well, my USB printer, which up to now always worked fine, now doesn't anymore...the moment I send something to print, it is turned inactive, and in IPP error messages is says that my USB device can't be found | 09:31 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: I'd rather just get a new theme for KDE | 09:31 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, try this: sudo update-alternatives --config java | 09:31 |
| insanekane | gibarian: did you try removing and reinstalling it ? | 09:31 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, enlightenment doesnt have a taskbar. (although you can add a os-x style icon bar) | 09:31 |
| ilba7r | fatejudger what i only miss in enlightenment that i find in kde is loading of the session after loging out | 09:32 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: should there be an apt-get or something in there? it throws an error wsaying -config is an unknown arguemnt | 09:32 |
| gibarian | isankane: yep, did that...it installs fine, but when I try to print a test sheet, it simply doesn't do anything... | 09:32 |
| gibarian | insanekane: and there's no error message about it either...it just doesn't print | 09:32 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, there are two "--" did you do that? | 09:32 |
| dwangoac | sudo update-alternatives --list java | 09:33 |
| dwangoac | /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.0 | 09:33 |
| dwangoac | /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/bin/java | 09:33 |
| insanekane | gibarian: does it have any existing jobs ? | 09:33 |
| dwangoac | hmm... | 09:33 |

| gibarian | Unable to open USB device "usb://hp/deskjet%203420?serial=TH29Q3D0WF41": No such device | 09:34 |
| fatejudger | ilba7r: that is a nice feature | 09:34 |
| gibarian | that's what it says | 09:34 |
| insanekane | gibarian: why don't you remove all jobs, stop the printer (i.e., in GUI), restart the printer (in GUI) and try again ? (this happens occassionally in my Canon S200) | 09:34 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: How would I do the same? | 09:34 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, search in adept for j2re | 09:35 |
| gibarian | insanekane: well, tried that....hrm | 09:35 |
| ilba7r | fatejudger but kde is too slow for my taste | 09:35 |
| gibarian | insanekane: whenever I activate the printer in the GUI it is turned inactive after a few seconds | 09:35 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, kde doesnt compare in speed to enlightenment | 09:35 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: Nothing there - I just confirmed I've got breezy universe, not sure about multiverse | 09:36 |
| insanekane | gibarian: so thats an HP 3420 ? | 09:36 |
| fatejudger | kairu0: how exactly is KDE slow? | 09:36 |
| gibarian | insanekane: yep | 09:37 |
| ilba7r | fatejudger do you hace icewm installed. If you have it run it and you will feel the difference | 09:37 |
| ilba7r | not as elegent as kde but is hell faster | 09:37 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, its probably multiverse.. cuz for one thing its not free | 09:37 |
| insanekane | gibarian: try "cat /var/log/cups/error_log" | 09:38 |
| gibarian | insanekane: I installed a USB 2.0 card two adys ago...can that be the problem? | 09:38 |

| insanekane | gibarian: maybe, did the problems start after that ? | 09:38 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: Adept shows only one multiverse - breezy-backports... | 09:38 |
| gibarian | insanekane: yeah | 09:39 |
| insanekane | gibarian: so the error is in CUPS | 09:39 |
| dwangoac | kairu0: would the correct line be deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse or something else? | 09:39 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, kde has a file manager, a panel(s), a window manager, a volume manager, etc. etc. running in the background. enlightenment is only a window manager. | 09:39 |
| gibarian | inanekane: hmm... | 09:39 |
| kairu0 | dwangoac, yeah thats right | 09:39 |
| kairu0 | brb | 09:39 |
| insanekane | gibarian: why don't you remove the USB card and check whether the printer works then | 09:39 |
| insanekane | gibarian: if it works, then it could be the HP printing system | 09:40 |

| fatejudger | insanekane: if it was GPLed businesses could use it | 09:44 |

| ilba7r | ok | 09:44 |
| insanekane | fatejudger: businessess can use it for free under GPL (I do) | 09:44 |
| fatejudger | insanekane: did they just do that for QT 4? | 09:44 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, GPL permits that via artistic licenses | 09:44 |
| fatejudger | insanekane: because you had to buy a special license for commercial stuff | 09:45 |

| fatejudger | http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/pricing.html | 09:45 |
| fatejudger | that is hardly GPL | 09:46 |
| fatejudger | that's a special license | 09:46 |
| insanekane | fatejudger: so ? | 09:46 |
| insanekane | fatejudger: Qt is available under QPL and GPL | 09:46 |
| insanekane | fatejudger: the GTK people are mad about GTK not because of GPL, but because they can make closed source apps with GTK which is not possible under Trolltech ... note that this has *nothing* to do with GPL/non-GPL | 09:48 |
| kairu0 | fatejudger, qt uses whats called "open source licensing" which is a subset of GNU GPL but allows to write their own license | 09:48 |
| insanekane | fatejudger: it has nothing to do with free software/open source software either | 09:48 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | use kdm | 02:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | it's recomended | 02:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | some options are missing if you use gdm IIRC, such as shut down/restart from the login screen | 02:31 |

| jjesse | at1as: is there a cicso vpn client package? one of the things that is holding me from going !windows on my laptop | 02:51 |
| at1as | The dialog pops up and displays a list of folders. | 02:51 |
| at1as | Normally, you type the name and the selection goes to the matching folder. | 02:51 |
| at1as | Not so in Breezy's version. The only thing that happens is if you happen to type the first letter of the subsequent folder, it will move down one... DOH! | 02:52 |
| apokryphos | totally confused, but sounds like a keyboard shortcut, which is of course easy to change | 02:52 |
| at1as | Compare that to the fact that they fixed the IMAP Storage of contacts, calendar and Journal, and it's really quite a minor complaint... but still annoying. | 02:52 |

| apokryphos | irrelevant, really | 04:03 |
| kazu | jbasilio: this morning when i launch y laptop klog was using 86% of the process | 04:04 |
| kazu | so I do: /etc/init.d/klogd stop | 04:04 |
| kazu | then /etc/init.d/klogd start | 04:04 |
| kazu | and i had this error : | 04:04 |
| kazu | /etc/init.d/klogd start | 04:04 |

| jbasilio | wow. strange error indeed! | 04:05 |
| kazu | and i have really no idea why and how to solve it | 04:05 |
| jbasilio | lemme look at the script | 04:05 |
| jbasilio | can you run mkfifo by itself? | 04:05 |
| kazu | no | 04:06 |
| jbasilio | type mkfifo .. does it come back with "arguments needed"? | 04:06 |

| kazu | /usr/bin/mkfifo: /usr/bin/mkfifo: cannot execute binary file | 04:06 |
| jbasilio | ahh. ok good. | 04:06 |
| kazu | good ? explain :p | 04:07 |
| jbasilio | 1 second .. afk on phone | 04:07 |
| kazu | last week i have done something with hdparm maybe it's link: i activated dma and io32_support on /dev/hda ... but it was working well after | 04:08 |
| kazu | (ok take your time :) ) | 04:08 |
| jbasilio | could be corruping your files ... AFAIK hdparm stuff is done automatically nowadays (i could be off though) | 04:09 |
| jbasilio | looking for what package has mkfifo in it | 04:09 |
| kazu | coreutils | 04:09 |
| kkathman | ralph1: you still here? | 04:09 |
| jbasilio | way ahead of me .. :) | 04:09 |
| kazu | but i was going to remove and reinstall but ... if i do that it's pretty the same thing than to format ... | 04:09 |
| === bhna [n=andreas@p54B81039.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| jbasilio | i assume you reinstalled it? | 04:09 |
| jbasilio | why is it the same thing as format? | 04:10 |
| Erwin_fire | lol you guys i'm in a chat channel with the real Emmanual Goldstein :O | 04:10 |
| kazu | remove coreutils == remove lot and lot of thing | 04:10 |
| Erwin_fire | #2600 | 04:10 |
| Erwin_fire | ;o | 04:10 |
| Erwin_fire | this is so kewl | 04:10 |
| kazu | try to do apt-get remove coreutils and you will see | 04:10 |
| jbasilio | kazu: well, you can manually force that stuff using dpkg | 04:10 |
| jbasilio | kazu: apt-get is overkill for what you need | 04:10 |
| kazu | dpkg -r coreutils ? | 04:11 |
| jbasilio | kazu: lemme check something .. did a dpkg thing the other week | 04:11 |
| kazu | ok | 04:11 |
| jbasilio | kazu: looking for the 'magical' switch to reinstall packages through dpkg (or apt-get for that matter) | 04:11 |
| kazu | ok thks | 04:12 |
| jbasilio | did you try apt-get --reinstall install ? | 04:12 |
| kazu | no let me try 5s | 04:13 |
| kazu | seems it's ok | 04:13 |
| jbasilio | ok meaning it won't reinstall? | 04:13 |
| kazu | non it reinstall | 04:13 |
| kazu | so gimme a few seconds i tell you if the problem is solved | 04:13 |
| ralph1 | kkathman: yes was looking on forum for answers but am finding none that5 work | 04:14 |
| kazu | ok i got a lot and lot of error doing this saying can't reding the copy of .... because it's in read only mode ... or can't delete he file because it's in read only mode | 04:15 |
| jbasilio | you did this using sudo, right? | 04:15 |
| kazu | i am in root actually | 04:15 |
| jbasilio | ls -la /usr/bin/mkfifo | 04:16 |
| jbasilio | -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15196 2005-09-05 05:14 /usr/bin/mkfifo | 04:16 |
| jbasilio | how about you? | 04:16 |
| kazu | -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15196 2005-09-05 10:14 /usr/bin/mkfifo | 04:16 |
| jbasilio | hmmm. weirdness. | 04:16 |
| jbasilio | you can probably force the reinstall .. your call at this point | 04:17 |
| kazu | ... | 04:17 |
| kazu | -f ? | 04:17 |
| jbasilio | man page says that's fix broken | 04:17 |
| kazu | k | 04:17 |
| jbasilio | hmmm. are there a ton or errors from read only files? maybe you can make them read/write temporarily | 04:18 |
| kazu | yes | 04:18 |
| kazu | the is a ton | 04:18 |
| jbasilio | can't image what caused this though ... hdparm is certainly a strong candidate | 04:18 |
| jbasilio | imagine that is | 04:18 |
| kazu | k | 04:19 |
| kazu | so you thing if i remove the option i put | 04:19 |
| kazu | that can work ? | 04:19 |
| kazu | or do i have to format ? | 04:19 |
| jbasilio | format isn't even on the radar yet ... don't go there! :) | 04:19 |
| kazu | ok ( saved : ) | 04:19 |
| jbasilio | i think removing the option (unless there was a darn good reason) might be a good idea | 04:19 |
| jbasilio | were you have big performance problems or just trying to tweak? | 04:20 |
| kazu | ( my fat 32 partition was slow | 04:20 |
| kazu | ( very slow ) | 04:20 |
| kazu | so i put xfr 69 ( i remove it this morning ) | 04:20 |
| kazu | and i activate io_support and dma) | 04:20 |
| kazu | this tow last still on | 04:20 |
| jbasilio | maybe try 1 at a time ... dma i can see helping a lot. not sure about io_support | 04:21 |
| kazu | ok jbasilio i remove the option and reboot | 04:21 |
| jbasilio | looking for dpkg flags for reinstall. lower level, might be able to force easier | 04:22 |
| kazu | jbasilio: seems that due to the dpkg comand all my files are read only now | 04:22 |
| kazu | i can't event run a vi on hdparm.conf | 04:23 |
| jbasilio | why? what's the error? | 04:23 |
| jbasilio | oh, sorry missed the read only thing | 04:23 |
| jbasilio | so after running apt-get everything went read only? even though it failed due to errors? | 04:24 |
| kazu | yes | 04:24 |
| jbasilio | can you still run dpkg and apt-get? | 04:24 |
| kazu | i reboot maybe no ? | 04:24 |
| jbasilio | yeah, try that | 04:24 |
| kazu | ok see you in few min | 04:25 |

| jbasilio | kkathman: weird. it all started with something else though (mkfifo wasn't able to be executed) | 04:30 |
| jbasilio | kkathman: but after trying to reinstall coreutils everything went read only ... i thought apt-get was supposed to NOT screw stuff up unless it was in a good state (i.e. if it fails, it hasn't changed anything yet) | 04:31 |
| kkathman | jbasilio: yah this person last night, there were three of us that couldnt figure it out. Until he fessed up that he had some foreign repo and did an Adept Update | 04:31 |
| seezer | kkathman: right. looks quite cool and shit. but had the stupid idea to close it yesterday evening and in the morning thought 'ah, forgot to gimme ssh access from outside' | 04:31 |
| kkathman | seezer: uh oh :( | 04:31 |
| seezer | sudo firestarter just showed up as a notshown icon - and got not much time | 04:32 |
| kkathman | live and learn :) | 04:32 |
| seezer | so thought 'fuck it' and ctrl+c'ed the sudo | 04:32 |
| kkathman | lol | 04:32 |
| seezer | result: firestarter died - but set every chain to drop first | 04:32 |
| kkathman | jbasilio: apparently one of the cd's or kubuntu's come with a weird bakport entry in the repository (breezy-backports) or something like that | 04:33 |

| jbasilio | yup | 04:37 |
| spike | kkathman: and "splah" is listed among the grub boot options | 04:37 |
| kkathman | spike ya you should have gotten a brand new splash ...but oddly, if something goes awry, it drops to text mode | 04:37 |
| kazu | jbasilio: so whan i reboot i got a fsck forced with a lot and lot of error | 04:38 |
| kazu | they seems to have been correct | 04:38 |

| jbasilio | whatever, it's beside the point. | 04:42 |

| kkathman | mine is a bit different tho, spike, cuz I took mine off the official upgrade site | 04:44 |

| mornfall | insanekane: application can handle it however it likes... generally, it clean-exits, but it's a bit hard in middle of an uninterruptible operation :) | 06:39 |
| insanekane | mornfall: ok ... by "x-ing" what exactly do you mean ? | 06:39 |
| insanekane | mornfall: do you mean "pressing the X on the window pane" ? | 06:39 |
| mornfall | insanekane: yup | 06:40 |
| insanekane | mornfall: or SIGTERM/SIGKILL ? | 06:40 |
| insanekane | mornfall: would that be just a CloseEvent ? | 06:40 |

| insanekane | mornfall: i mean, the x-ing ... wouldnt that be delivered as a CloseEvent ? | 06:40 |
| mornfall | insanekane: yes, something like that | 06:40 |
| mornfall | (it's a signal in qt, but that's isomorphic) | 06:41 |
| mornfall | (signal as in signals/slots not as in kill(2)) | 06:41 |
| insanekane | mornfall: something like that ? I'm talking abt a QCloseEvent ... | 06:41 |

| insanekane | mornfall: i have a question to ask you ... do you do the 'apt stuff' in a seperate thread to keep the gui event loop going ? | 06:42 |

| === _JakubS [n=qba@ain131.internetdsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| insanekane | mornfall: so you poll processEvents() ? | 06:43 |
| mornfall | that's not much of polling | 06:43 |
| mornfall | but yes, i regularly call processEvents | 06:43 |
| insanekane | hmm | 06:43 |
| mornfall | threading is lot more complex | 06:43 |
| mornfall | and bug-prone | 06:43 |
| insanekane | mornfall: so, your libept, allows such integration with foreign event loops ? | 06:43 |
| mornfall | (would need to add hell lot of mutexes) | 06:43 |
| mornfall | insanekane: libept is qt specific... libapt-front has eventloop hooks yes | 06:44 |
| insanekane | yes, thats why i ask ... i have a db app atm but calling processEvents is too much of a drain | 06:44 |
| mornfall | why so | 06:44 |
| mornfall | you just need to do it reasonably | 06:44 |
| insanekane | mornfall: aha, now i understand the distinction | 06:44 |
| mornfall | where reasonably reads 10 times in a second or so | 06:44 |
| insanekane | mornfall: some reports are particularly cpu-intensive | 06:45 |
| insanekane | mornfall: aha ... maybe im overdoing it | 06:45 |
| mornfall | there's also lots of care to take about filling in listviews in gui | 06:45 |
| insanekane | mornfall: oho | 06:45 |
| mornfall | i spent lots of time getting that work half-decently | 06:45 |
| insanekane | mornfall: i do not fill in anything while communication goes on ... but how does it cause such a problem ? | 06:46 |
| insanekane | im just curious | 06:46 |
| mornfall | well, i have to manage listview with some 17k items and it needs to be smooth | 06:46 |

| PJeremy | can i remove konqueror without any problems? | 11:43 |
| kkathman | PJeremy: why do you want to remove it? | 11:44 |
| pagux | yes I got rid of fonts error msg | 11:44 |
| PJeremy | kkathman: because 1. i don't use konqueror 2. i've had problems with ctrl+mouse selecting files in konqueror. | 11:44 |
| kkathman | PJeremy: what are you using for a file manager? | 11:45 |
| kkathman | and the ctrl-mouse works fine | 11:45 |
| nalioth | pagux: it will | 11:45 |
| PJeremy | kkathman: it may work fine for you, but it does not work fine at all for me, in fact it doesn't work at all here. krusader | 11:46 |
| PJeremy | kkathman: and i could use the konsole as file manager as well.. | 11:46 |
| kkathman | wow...got no idea why...but I wouldnt de-install konqueror...more trouble than its worth | 11:46 |
| kkathman | I'd check your mouse compatibility for that ctrl-click thing | 11:47 |
| kkathman | cuz it works just fine | 11:47 |
| PJeremy | kkathman: it's not a hardware problem. it works in ANY prog but konqueror. it worked in hoary, it works on any other linux distro..not on breezy..for me.. | 11:47 |
| kkathman | hmm...like I said...got no answer for ya PJeremy cuz it works the same for me as it did in warty, hoary and now breezy | 11:48 |
| kkathman | so its not the software either | 11:48 |
| HungerForSandwi | it your mama | 11:49 |
| PJeremy | kkathman: it's weird i know. i just want to make sure that removing konqueror will not cause any problems | 11:49 |
| kkathman | it might | 11:49 |
| HungerForSandwi | i dosent | 11:49 |
| HungerForSandwi | i do it | 11:49 |
| HungerForSandwi | some non-kde progs use it tho | 11:50 |
