| fatejudger | Hobbsee: you're a woman? | 01:54 |
| Hobbsee | right | 01:54 |
| nalioth | Hobbsee: woops | 01:54 |
| Hobbsee | fatejudger: yes | 01:55 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: I had no idea | 01:55 |
| Hobbsee | lol | 01:55 |
| Hobbsee | i am | 01:55 |
| nalioth | Hobbsee: that was probably incorrct | 01:55 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: I think you're the second person I thought was a guy and wasn't on Linux IRC channels | 01:55 |
| LjL | nalioth: that syntax you give is a bit confusing, 'cause your "source" is what "ln --help" calls a "target" ;) | 01:55 |
| fatejudger | *was | 01:55 |
| Hobbsee | fatejudger: hehehehe - well seeing as most people on here are males, i can kind of understand that | 01:55 |
| Snake_ | fatejudger: it's impossible to tell whos a girl and whos a guy through text | 01:56 |
| fatejudger | Snake_: actually that's not usually true | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | Snake_: not so | 01:56 |
| fatejudger | Snake_: women tend to have very bad spelling, no offense Hobbsee | 01:56 |
| LjL | Hobbsee: well, i assume "he" if i have to refer to someone in the third person on IRC... i mean, it's easier than writing "he or she" everytime, and it's correct 99% of the time ;) | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | women generally talk in a feminine manner... | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | LjL: so true | 01:56 |
| Hobbsee | fatejudger: well...sometimes - it doesnt help with long nails...but males have equally bad spelling at times | 01:57 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: I think it's just teenage girls | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | but they do speak in more feminine ways, and will generally admit to being females | 01:57 |
| Snake_ | Most of the time its hard to tell..for me atleast, unless they are typing in dits | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 01:57 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: one of the reasons I hate myspace... | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | hehe oh yes | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | dreaded thing | 01:57 |
| Snake_ | OMG I TOTLAY GOTT GO DUE MAH NALS!!! LOLOLOLOL | 01:57 |
| Snake_ | UR SOOOO CUTE | 01:57 |
| Snake_ | =girl. | 01:57 |
| Snake_ | :) | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | LjL: there's always the person's nick, or "they" which works lol | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | hehe yeah | 01:58 |
| Hobbsee | that's where you start thinkign "oh no, wonder where the ops are today" | 01:58 |
| Snake_ | Then theres ones like Hobbsee here, who show intelligence. Then it's harder to tell | 01:58 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: heh, really | 01:58 |
| Hobbsee | hehe | 01:58 |
| LjL | Hobbsee: the nick is not a choice when you've already repeat it two or more times in the same sentence :) and about "they", uh.. i think i'd feel a little offended if people referred to me with "they" :o) | 01:58 |

| fatejudger | Hobbsee: "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages. " | 02:01 |
| LjL | it's a frigging *alpha version*, dammit! :P | 02:01 |
| Hobbsee | LjL: this machine is a tripple boot machine - XP, breezy, dapper | 02:01 |
| Hobbsee | lol | 02:01 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: how is dapper? | 02:01 |
| Hobbsee | fatejudger: hmmm...that all it says? | 02:01 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: and are you a developer? | 02:01 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: yes, unfortunately | 02:02 |
| Hobbsee | fatejudger: well it's nice, but i screwed my users when i copied the /home dir over, with all the settings | 02:02 |

| pupil | what do I do? | 02:04 |
| LjL | Snake_: "that weird page" is the manual for ln... and you can type "q" to get out of it | 02:04 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: it would have tried that already | 02:04 |
| pupil | I have followed to how to's so far | 02:04 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: but I tried it anyway, and as expected it didn't work | 02:04 |
| Hobbsee | fatejudger: try it manually | 02:04 |

| fatejudger | Hobbsee: apparently the package is missing | 02:04 |

| fatejudger | Package libimlib2 is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 02:05 |
| fatejudger | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 02:05 |

| LjL | Snake_: the info *is* in that page. it's actually quite a short page, compared to your average man page! | 02:05 |
| Snake_ | Oh....uhh...k :) | 02:05 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: flash... | 02:05 |
| LjL | Snake_: under "DESCRIPTION", there's the complete list of the options | 02:05 |
| Hobbsee | incompatible browser on that link | 02:05 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, yes,. flas plugin for mozilla firefox,. or konqueror | 02:06 |
| Hobbsee | sudo apt-get install flashplayer-mozilla | 02:06 |
| LjL | Snake_: anyway, you don't even really need the man page. "ln --help" gives you all the info you need to create a symlink | 02:06 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, I did that,. | 02:06 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: and? | 02:06 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, any other suggestions? | 02:06 |
| fatejudger | Hobbsee: maybe I need to get another repo | 02:06 |
| Hobbsee | did it give you any error messages? | 02:06 |

| ubotu | hmm... repos is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/969 (Hoary) or http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/2325 (Breezy) see also !easysource | 02:06 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, it installed it,. but does not load http://bmw.ca properly | 02:07 |
| pupil | it only loads one side of it | 02:07 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: do you have the useragent extension installed? | 02:07 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, yeap | 02:07 |
| Hobbsee | change it so that the page thinks firefox is IE, then try | 02:08 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, I did that already | 02:08 |
| Snake_ | LjL: so for a link to the desktop it would be "sudo ln /target/file/here /home/snake/desktop/ -s" ? | 02:08 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, I wonder what I'm doing wrong | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: same thing? | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: it's the way the page is coded, i'm looking to see if there's a way around it | 02:08 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, yes,. does not work,. I have tried that already | 02:08 |
| LjL | Snake_: yeah, though the "-s" option traditionally comes right after "ln". i suppose it probably works the way you wrote it too, anyway | 02:08 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, ohh,. ok,. you get the same thing,. it only loads the left half | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | yes | 02:09 |
| LjL | Snake_: but, wait, why "sudo"? | 02:09 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: you read html at all? | 02:09 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, quite well | 02:09 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: check the page source then :P | 02:09 |
| Snake_ | LjL: Oh alright! Cool I learn something new. I love linux. It's so....rewarding....and I dunno I just assumd I needed it (I execute most commands with it) | 02:09 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, I came there to configure a car cause I'm gonna buy one next month,. wanted to see what lease payments are,. etc | 02:09 |
| LjL | Snake_: you definitely shouldn't! "sudo" must only be used when you *need* root permissions. in that case, you don't. when in doubt, try without "sudo" first | 02:10 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, its a toss up between the 5 series and the lexus is 350 | 02:10 |

| pupil | Hobbsee, Iw as here yesterday as well,. no dice | 02:10 |
| Snake_ | LjL: oh okay | 02:10 |
| LjL | Snake_: if your *own* user can read /target/file/here, and /home/snake/desktop belongs to your own user (which it most probably does), then you don't need any special priviledges | 02:10 |
| Snake_ | LjL: roger that | 02:11 |
| LjL | Snake_: actually, using "sudo" would probably have the effect that your own user wouldn't be able to delete the link | 02:11 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: you cant chang eit, unless you can suddenly FTP to the site and change the page (not a good idea lol!) or use win or mac to browse the site | 02:11 |
| Hobbsee | bit nasty of it seeming to check for OS as well, in the quick bit that i looked at | 02:11 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, is it possible to use safari ,. or is that only for mac | 02:12 |
| Snake_ | LjL: one more question, how the hell do I mount NTFS (read only is fine) I tried "sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /media/hdb1 ntfs" (I think it was) and it wouldn't let me even read | 02:12 |
| Hobbsee | check it, but i would say for mac | 02:12 |
| pupil | I don' thave windows,. although, I think I'll use qemu,. and install windows98 in it | 02:12 |
| Hobbsee | lol good luck pupil - that's a horrible OS to load with no drivers lol! | 02:12 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, is there a way to use wine or some other emulator to run ie explorer? | 02:12 |
| LjL | Snake_: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /media/hdb1. anyway, you need to have root permissions to read NTFS volumes (no, i don't know what the workaround to that is) | 02:12 |
| LjL | Snake_: note that i said to *read*, not just to mount | 02:13 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, I'm only gonna use it for browsing web,. nothing else,. | 02:13 |
| Hobbsee | Snake_: http://ubuntuguide.org/#automountntfs | 02:13 |
| LjL | Snake_: in other words, you need "sudo ls /media/hdb1" to actually see the files | 02:13 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: wine will do it, with winetools | 02:13 |
| LjL | Snake_: or, to see them graphically, "sudo konqueror /media/hdb1" | 02:13 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, you have a better idea,. plus I will have it in a virtual machine,. | 02:13 |
| Hobbsee | Snake_: that bit works, just dont try a lot of the other stuff in the guide - a lot of it's outdated | 02:13 |
| pupil | Hobbsee, it will run internet explorer,. is there a howto ? | 02:13 |
| Snake_ | Hobbsee: I was told not to use ubuntu guide... | 02:13 |
| Snake_ | Hobbsee: oh okay | 02:13 |
| Hobbsee | pupil: ubuntuforums.org | 02:13 |
| LjL | i... i..... iiin.... ternet explorer?! | 02:14 |
| Hobbsee | Snake_: yeah, that bit works, and i havent found the replacement bit on the wiki yet - it was there, then disappeared | 02:14 |
| LjL | why in the world do you want to run *internet explorer* on linux? | 02:14 |
| pupil | LjL, for flash,. YES | 02:14 |
| pupil | LjL, go to http://bmw.ca if you can | 02:14 |
| LjL | last time i checked flash wasn't internet explorer only... | 02:14 |
| pupil | LjL, tell me if that page loads. | 02:14 |

| Hobbsee | LjL: if you're a webpage creator, a lot of reasons | 02:15 |

| doodz | then just clean out files from there that relate to this software i just installed that messed up ? | 05:54 |
| crimsun | no, that shows you the $PATH | 05:54 |
| crimsun | it has very little to do with where locally compiled programs dump their contents | 05:54 |
| doodz | $path is just used for executing hey | 05:55 |
| doodz | like when you type a command in without a ./ it refers to the $paths | 05:55 |
| doodz | is that correct ? | 05:55 |

| fyrmedic | nalioth: seems like it. I have had all sorts of problems trying to get apps installed. It seems like I am forever chasing down extra's that are needed. | 06:51 |
| JoeBu | thats another positive for open source | 06:52 |
| === _goldbrick is now known as _goldbrick_ | ||

| fyrmedic | JoeBu: I am not going to try skype until I get my other disasters figured out. | 06:52 |
| JoeBu | M$ denies vulnerabities exist ...lol | 06:52 |
| nalioth | fyrmedic: do you have all the official repos enabled? | 06:53 |
| fyrmedic | nalioth: yes | 06:53 |
| nalioth | fyrmedic: then you must want some very interesting things | 06:53 |

| JoeBu | running amarok right now as a matter of fact | 06:54 |
| fyrmedic | amarok is a huge disaster | 06:54 |
| nalioth | fyrmedic: i have the latest amarok on my box. the link is at kubuntu.org | 06:54 |
| fyrmedic | yeah. I tried it at least 10 times. | 06:54 |
| nalioth | the latest cutting edge "please test this for me" amarok | 06:54 |
| nalioth | it compiled and ran just fine for me... .. | 06:55 |
| fyrmedic | I have been working on it for days. I am about to get a divorce out of it | 06:55 |
| JoeBu | eek | 06:55 |
| JoeBu | why not use juk instead? | 06:55 |
| fyrmedic | I am kidding of course. but definately in the "dog house. | 06:55 |
| JoeBu | or some other | 06:55 |
| fyrmedic | why not. I will try anything right now. I am leary about installing things though | 06:56 |
| gupta | I installed alien it took 30mb(including all libraries). Now when i try to remove it(aptitude remove) only 295kb will recovered. | 06:57 |
| fyrmedic | what's alien | 06:57 |
| JoeBu | it changes rpms | 06:57 |
| gupta | Is there any way to remove lib that are not needed by any package. | 06:57 |
| JoeBu | to debs | 06:57 |
| fyrmedic | oh | 06:57 |
| JoeBu | if you dont use aptitude from the beginning there are usually problems like that creeping up | 06:58 |
| JoeBu | use straight up apt-get | 06:58 |
| JoeBu | or adept in breezy | 06:58 |
| gupta | hmm So there isn't a way to remove those 30mb now. | 06:58 |
| JoeBu | i got a good link for you about that subject...hang on | 06:59 |
| JoeBu | here it is http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/tag/applications/ | 06:59 |
| gupta | Thanks! joeBu | 06:59 |
| JoeBu | yep | 07:00 |
| JoeBu | i got that guys feed on agregator | 07:00 |
| JoeBu | some good content there | 07:00 |
| fyrmedic | lol I just tried juk. I think kubuntu doesn't like my music | 07:01 |
| JoeBu | if it gave u a problem its probably some kind of engine prob | 07:01 |

| JoeBu | u finding some success fyr? | 07:06 |
| fyrmedic | so-so | 07:08 |
| fyrmedic | I seem to have a problem getting the folder that has all of my music to work. It is fine with 1 or 2 small ones. | 07:09 |
| nalioth_zZz | fyrmedic: how many songs do you have in the folder? | 07:09 |
| fyrmedic | in the big one? | 07:10 |
| nalioth_zZz | yes | 07:10 |
| fyrmedic | 1 or 2k | 07:10 |
| fyrmedic | maybe more | 07:10 |
| nalioth_zZz | no wonder | 07:10 |
| fyrmedic | could be 4k | 07:10 |
| nalioth_zZz | your amarok is parsing all those id3tags | 07:11 |
| fyrmedic | my amarok is shot. it is not doing anything. I got juk to play a few | 07:11 |
| nalioth_zZz | whatever music player you use, is clogging down parsing all that data | 07:12 |
| fyrmedic | I am frustrated with amarok. I had all the same problems that I have had today and stumbled onto a fix but haven't been able to stumble back into it. | 07:13 |
| JoeBu | when something like that happens, sometimes a process will get "forgotten" in your pid list....what kind of performance u getting on the puter in general? | 07:13 |
| fyrmedic | better and faster than windows. | 07:13 |
| JoeBu | right on | 07:13 |
| JoeBu | linux uses memory much more efficiently than windows | 07:14 |
| fyrmedic | but I am still trying to learn enough about linux to start tweaking things. | 07:14 |
| fyrmedic | I think that mysql is hugely broke too. | 07:14 |
| JoeBu | the best thing to learn first is how to back everything up.....windows or not | 07:14 |
| fyrmedic | I know | 07:14 |
| JoeBu | yeah, i have been having some drupal issues myself | 07:14 |
| fyrmedic | I am not afraid to re-install if I have to currently | 07:15 |
| fyrmedic | I still have xp in the backgroung | 07:15 |
| fyrmedic | if something goes bad | 07:15 |
| JoeBu | what makes u think mysql is shot? | 07:15 |
| fyrmedic | I opened up the system log app and it had all sorts of entries for mysql that looked like errors. | 07:16 |
| JoeBu | did u delete the mysql table in the default database? | 07:17 |
| JoeBu | the is a system maintenance account that uses it | 07:17 |
| fyrmedic | I was just looking at it again and can't find where I saw the prob's. Must have been hallucinating | 07:20 |
| fyrmedic | theres other stuff that bother me thought | 07:20 |
| JoeBu | probably got archived | 07:20 |

| fyrmedic | that pops up a lot | 07:21 |
| JoeBu | hmm....looks like a job for google there...i got no idea...maybe u installed some software off of unofficial repositories that it didnt like? | 07:22 |

| fyrmedic | lol yup I just did it. | 07:30 |
| JoeBu | well, there's one problem that u have figured out :) | 07:31 |
| fyrmedic | partially | 07:31 |
| fyrmedic | I have music playing... guess I have enter them all by hand | 07:32 |
| fyrmedic | so is Breezy still in Beta | 07:32 |
| JoeBu | you could split up the directories into multiple to see if that helps | 07:32 |
| fyrmedic | I was thinking about that | 07:32 |
| JoeBu | i dont think beta is a good word, remember there is unstable, stable, and testing forks | 07:33 |
| JoeBu | dapper is the unstable | 07:33 |
| fyrmedic | so what is the 5.10 release. unstable? | 07:34 |
| JoeBu | no, u r on breezy 5.10 | 07:34 |
| JoeBu | dapper is like 6.x | 07:35 |

| JoeBu | as the the technically correct jargon, i wouldnt say it is the most stable....hoary would be more stable | 07:36 |

| JoeBu | im scared of dapper on my regular machine | 07:36 |
| JoeBu | i run breezy | 07:37 |

| bobuse | aftertaf: yes | 10:38 |
| bobuse | aftertaf: I don't understand "adept runs in user mode read only" | 10:39 |
| aftertaf | bobuse: then you can edit the icon and remove the kdesu bit in front ;) | 10:39 |
| tvo | bobuse: if adept is started without privileges, it runs in read-only mode: ie. you can only view (which) packages (are installed) | 10:39 |
| bobuse | there isn't explicit kdesu that I can remove, look at grep ^Exec /usr/share/applications/kde/adept.desktop | 10:39 |
| bobuse | ok ok, it isn't that I want | 10:40 |

| raphink | corona: there are far enough tutorials on the web : http://www.google.fr/search?q=bash+prompt+customizing&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 | 11:53 |
| corona | i was looking but am finding it hard to change the colour of directories that get listed using "ls"...i shall look around | 11:54 |
| ganymed | i dont mean that much kde itself... rather starting programs, for example. and the visual stuff shouldn't be a problem with an x700... | 11:55 |
| dipnlik | Tm_T: what do you think that can make big differences? I quit KDE on my P3 550, 128 MB RAM | 11:56 |
| ganymed | as far as i know linux utilizes most of the memory... but why does it need so long to start a program that should still be in memory... | 11:57 |
| ganymed | is there anything to improve performance from the very low level... | 11:59 |
| ganymed | except compiling the kernel | 12:00 |
| Flixor | was wondering if the seveas server is out | 12:01 |

| dipnlik | Flixor: in fact I use ratpoison which is wayyy better for me, but i'd like to see KDE running well here | 12:06 |
| Tm_T | dipnlik: test and try, you will see the difference if there's any | 12:06 |
| Flixor | yeah well, i guess you have to settle that it runs a bit slow on your hardware | 12:06 |
| ganymed | ok. i hate it. i really do.... am i doing sth. wrong (and i explicitly include this possibility) or is it just buggy? | 12:07 |
| ganymed | i click on synaptic or adept and it's starting and starting and nothing happens... normally this happens ones, then i click again and it works.... | 12:07 |
| aftertaf | ganymed: how much ram have you got | 12:07 |
| ganymed | 1gig | 12:08 |
| Flixor | like for example i used my girlfriends computer yesterday (a celeron 400 mhz with 256 ram) my first thought was is this computer upgraded, cause it felt faster and more responsive then my linux kde desktop | 12:08 |
| aftertaf | and run 'top' to see if sth is hogging resources | 12:08 |
| ganymed | Flixor: this is what i mean.... thanks | 12:08 |
| aftertaf | can be bugs where a prog runs but hangs, and each time you run it again the same thing happens, you end up with 10 x the same app stalled and eating resources | 12:09 |

| kairu0 | ganymed, i dont understand your question | 12:27 |
| Tm_T | hm | 12:29 |
| ganymed | well. the following. i use bluefish for html stuff on a quite fast notebook. the minimum frequency is 800 Mhz. when i write at this speed i have lack during writing (seriously!). when i go to full speed (1800 Mhz) it absolutly normal | 12:29 |
| ganymed | i am not hallucinating | 12:30 |
| ganymed | i cannot figure out what this problem is related to. it cannot be the cpu speed... neither the hdd (which is slow on notebook anyway). | 12:31 |
| kairu0 | hmmmmm | 12:32 |
| kairu0 | 800 mhz is the battery-mode? | 12:32 |
| Kream | well how do i get java running on kubuntu so that I can run azureus on it ? | 12:34 |
| kairu0 | install j2re and then do a "sudo update-alternatives --config java" | 12:36 |
| Kream | kairu0: thanks | 12:38 |
| Kream | kairu0: j2re doesn't show up in adept or kynaptic | 12:38 |
| Kream | do I have to add a particular repository ? | 12:38 |
| kairu0 | Kream, i think its multiverse | 12:38 |
| ganymed | kairu0: i guess so... power saving blabla | 12:39 |
| Kream | kairu0: can you paste the line that adds breezy multiverse ? | 12:39 |

| apokryphos | wow, amd64 packs for 3.5rc1. Nice to see :D | 03:16 |
| penguinzdr | when KDE will release 3.5? | 03:17 |
| carsten | I wonder when amd64 will finally really be supported... There are still to many miscompilations everwhere, bugs in gcc, unoptimized kernel and so on :( | 03:18 |
| apokryphos | penguinzdr: http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kde-3.5-release-plan.html | 03:18 |
| apokryphos | carsten: everything's been pretty smooth for me so far | 03:19 |
| carsten | I encountered about 10 gcc bugs so far :) | 03:19 |
| apokryphos | just little extras like extra kde packs didn't get much attention since dear Jonathan had an i386 himself | 03:19 |
| carsten | well, all fixed in 4.0.2, but still | 03:19 |
| aftertaf | dapper :) | 03:19 |
| penguinzdr | 23rd november! i cant wait until it../ | 03:20 |
| penguinzdr | and how can i upgrade when 3.5 is released? | 03:20 |
| carsten | penguinzdr: 3.5rc1 is already pretty stable | 03:22 |
| penguinzdr | i think i will wait until the final release. and so, how can i upgrade? | 03:22 |
| carsten | you have to add the correct repo to /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:23 |
| carsten | then apt-get update && apt-get upgraded | 03:23 |
| penguinzdr | and it is? | 03:23 |
| carsten | penguinzdr: it will be announced on kubuntu.org | 03:23 |
| penguinzdr | ok | 03:23 |
| apokryphos | make sure you have kubuntu-desktop then update your sources and run a dist-upgrade | 03:23 |

| Stele | does someone have a recipe that works? | 04:09 |
| Stele | i have apt-get install nvidia-glx | 04:09 |
| beefsprocket | what trouble exactly? | 04:09 |
| Stele | which seemed to work | 04:09 |
| Stele | but switching to "nvidia" in xorg.conf doesnt work | 04:10 |
| Stele | it claims the kernel module wont load | 04:10 |
| Stele | do i need to do something special for a SMP kernel? | 04:10 |

| Stele | yeah | 04:10 |
| === kkathman is now known as kkathman-away | ||
| Stele | several times | 04:10 |
| bl3ssing | how can I become a root directly when I am logging into the Kubuntu SO? I don't want to enter the pass of the root for 1000000 times. I just want to be a root when I'm logging into the SO. | 04:10 |
| Stele | you could assign a root password | 04:11 |
| bl3ssing | I have a root password | 04:11 |
| Stele | but if you sudo your first command, root will stay in effect for awhile | 04:11 |
| Stele | so you dont need to keep doing it | 04:11 |
| beefsprocket | Stele: why not download the nvidia driver from nvidia? | 04:11 |
| Stele | beef - i did, and tried compiling it, but i couldnt get my X server to quit reliably | 04:11 |
| Stele | and then it was complaining about gcc 4 being installed | 04:11 |
| Stele | big rats-nest! | 04:11 |
| bl3ssing | can I log into the system as a ROOT, not as a simple user? | 04:11 |
| Stele | bl3ssing why do you want to do that? | 04:11 |
| Stele | log in as a normal user, and use "sudo" | 04:12 |
| Stele | then you can enter YOUR password, only once | 04:12 |
| bl3ssing | because I want to install a lots of software into my computer ... and all the time ... I need to reenter the root password | 04:12 |
| bl3ssing | I'm so fade up with this ... | 04:12 |
| Stele | no you dont | 04:12 |
| Stele | use sudo on the first command - enter your password | 04:12 |
| bl3ssing | I just want to be loged as a root | 04:12 |
| Stele | future commands wont require a password | 04:12 |
| booner | just "sudo bash" | 04:12 |
| bl3ssing | no, you missunderstoot my point ... | 04:12 |
| Stele | or do that | 04:12 |
| bl3ssing | I know this sudo command | 04:12 |
| Stele | when you use sudo you ARE root, sort of | 04:13 |
| booner | or set your root password | 04:13 |
| bl3ssing | but I don't want to use any konsole to install my softwares | 04:13 |
| Stele | you dont need to BE root | 04:13 |
| bl3ssing | by example | 04:13 |
| Stele | er... | 04:13 |
| Stele | in the desktop? | 04:13 |
| beefsprocket | bl3ssing: have you thought about adept or synaptic? | 04:13 |
| Stele | yeah use a package manager - you enter pw once | 04:13 |
| beefsprocket | Stele: you should get rid off all nvidia stuff, kubuntu and downloaded, reboot and begin afresh | 04:14 |
| nalioth | booner: actually "sudo bash" is better achieved by "sudo -i" | 04:14 |
| beefsprocket | Stele: I've had the same thing, I opted for the nvidia installer, you you have to remove linux-restriceted modules, nvidia-glx etc | 04:14 |
| booner | nalioth: sure i guess that would work too | 04:14 |
| beefsprocket | Stele: just use apt-cache search nvidia | 04:14 |
| bl3ssing | I want to get into the ... Adept Updater ... and it is asking me about : "you need to run this application as root to make any use of it". How can I be a root without any entering my password from the konsole, but to confirm that I'm a root? | 04:15 |
| booner | does anyone know how to get thunderbird to actually open URLs in a browser? | 04:15 |
| beefsprocket | bl3ssing: just enter your password, it is using kdesu which is a graphical sudo of sorts | 04:16 |
| booner | bl3ssing: doesn't it ask you for your root pw? | 04:16 |
| beefsprocket | booner: you have to edit a file in your .firefox directory | 04:17 |
| Stele | so i need to remove nvidia-glx? | 04:17 |
| beefsprocket | hang on, I'l check mine | 04:17 |
| mornfall | bl3ssing: if you are running from konsole, it's "kdesu adept-updater" | 04:17 |
| bl3ssing | I'm not using any konsole | 04:17 |
| bl3ssing | I am using the wysiwyget way ... this is the best. | 04:17 |
| booner | beefsprocket: in .firefox? | 04:18 |
| booner | or in .mozilla-thunderbird? | 04:18 |

| beefsprocket | sorry, for mailto: in .mozilla/firefox/~profile | 04:18 |
| bl3ssing | and I hate that I can't get inside of the sistem directly from the logging ino the Kubuntu. Is there any possibility of doing this: to log in as a root whenever I want, just like I'm logging as bl3ssing and with my pass... | 04:18 |
| bl3ssing | ? | 04:18 |
| beefsprocket | in thunderbird, .mozilla-thunderbird/~profile | 04:19 |
| nalioth | bl3ssing: that is a really bad idea | 04:19 |
| booner | beefsprocket: ok so ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/b3pzu80v.default right? | 04:19 |

| beefsprocket | but man was it frustrating before | 04:31 |
| beefsprocket | bl3ssing: sudo passwd root | 04:31 |
| beefsprocket | bl3ssing: someone told you yesterday to read everything | 04:31 |
| beefsprocket | bl3ssing: let me reiterate, READ EVERYTHING | 04:31 |
| kkathman | there is really no need for root in ubuntu at all | 04:32 |
| beefsprocket | if you forget a program's options etc. check the man page. make sure you have a backup | 04:32 |
| kkathman | more damage in systems are caused by root than anything else I think :) | 04:33 |
| beefsprocket | its a good way to learn though -- breakng things | 04:33 |
| kkathman | beefsprocket: hehe correct | 04:33 |
| booner | root is handy when you break sudo.. | 04:33 |
| beefsprocket | right | 04:34 |
| kkathman | and you fix it in safe mode too | 04:34 |
| nalioth | if you bork up as root, there may be no safe mode | 04:34 |
| kkathman | and sudo doesnt "get broken" on its own | 04:34 |
| kkathman | nalioth: very true | 04:34 |
| booner | all root all the time ;-) | 04:35 |
| booner | j/k | 04:35 |

| Stele | i think im going to swap them - the 7800 might be faster for games | 04:48 |
| booner | of course sweet monitors aren't bad either.. so why don't you just send me both ;-) | 04:48 |
| Stele | ok is there another way to get it to show me 1920x1200? | 04:49 |
| icewt | kkathman: i know, but i also know that the applications that i have installed should have been added to the kde menu. also no - i can't add them there manually. when i edit the menu in kmenueditor everything seems to go just fine, saving seems to happen, but the menu doesn't change | 04:49 |
| beefsprocket | so the refresh rate is in your monitor section in xorg.conf right? | 04:50 |
| Stele | there is NOTHING about rates in xorg.conf | 04:50 |
| Stele | hold on | 04:50 |
| Stele | i might have a typo | 04:50 |
| beefsprocket | ok, you need the specs for that monitor to get the horizontal sync and vertical refresh rates | 04:50 |
| kkathman | icewt: hmm...well if they arent updating the K-menu, and you know they should, it might be a bug.. But I've added things to my K-menu with no problems. | 04:51 |

| DjDarkman | hy ,i have an apache2 server running on my pc but i want php5 to run two ,how can i do that? | 05:04 |
| beefsprocket | apt-get install php5 | 05:05 |
| beefsprocket | can anyone point me to a good howto for forwarding an xsession over ssh? | 05:06 |
| DjDarkman | and how do i activate it? | 05:06 |
| beefsprocket | try creating a file called phpinfo.php in your /var/www directory (if you haven't changed it fromthe default) | 05:08 |
| beefsprocket | put <? phpinfo(); ?> into the file and then browse to it | 05:09 |
| beefsprocket | as in, http://localhost/phpinfo.php | 05:09 |
| DjDarkman | k t10x | 05:10 |
| kkathman | DjDarkman: I used xampp and php5 works great as well as php4 | 05:11 |
| Stele | any ssh gurus here? | 05:12 |
| booner | beefsprocket: ssh -X ? | 05:12 |
| Stele | i've copied by authorized_hosts and such files over to the new machine | 05:12 |
| Stele | but i cant ssh into it without entering my password | 05:13 |
| booner | or add the ForwardX11 to your ssh config file | 05:13 |
| beefsprocket | I added the forward bit, do I just append the -X when logging in? | 05:13 |
| booner | beefsprocket: if you have the forwarded bit in your config file, it should "just happen" | 05:13 |
| robotgeek | beefsprocket: the -X is for X11 forwarding | 05:14 |
| booner | Stele: i think authorized_keys2 is what you are looking for, not authored_hosts | 05:14 |
| DjDarkman | You don't have permission to access /phpinfo.php on this server. ,what does this mean? | 05:14 |
| beefsprocket | I figured as much, all I get is a new cmd line in the same terminal | 05:14 |

| booner | Stele: np | 05:19 |
| beefsprocket | i edited the main ssh_config file | 05:19 |

| beefsprocket | as well as the sshd_config file | 05:20 |
| beefsprocket | yeah tried it | 05:20 |
| booner | does the xforwarding work just sshing to your local machine? | 05:20 |
| beefsprocket | wait, do I need x running first? | 05:21 |

| booner | for me "ssh -X localhost" forwards X, but "ssh -x localhost" doesn't (as expected) | 05:21 |
| beefsprocket | nope, no go | 05:22 |
| snoogert | and another thing, i've make my repository, but when i downloaad a deb package, i've got this error message "NOT AUTHENTICATED", how can i do for fix it? | 05:22 |
| booner | you are running ssh from an xterm or something right? | 05:22 |
| beefsprocket | strange though, echo $DISPLAY shows localhost:11.0 | 05:22 |
| beefsprocket | yeah, konsole | 05:22 |
| robotgeek | snoogert: you need gpg stuff, wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources | 05:23 |
| booner | that looks like a forwarded X then | 05:23 |
| booner | beefsprocket: how are you testing it? | 05:23 |
| booner | just run a very simple X program like xeyes or glxinfo or something | 05:24 |
| beefsprocket | ssh -X -l user 0.0.0.0 | 05:24 |
| beefsprocket | lets me login and everything | 05:24 |
| booner | what about "ssh -X localhost" (exactly like that) | 05:24 |

| nalioth | Stele: add a line to your ~/.bashrc "CC=/usr/bin/gcc-3.4" <enter> " export CC" | 06:03 |

| Stele | that sounds easy enough | 06:04 |
| booner | http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/434433 | 06:04 |
| booner | Stele: ^^ | 06:04 |
| Stele | thats cool | 06:05 |
| Stele | but if "g++" uses the "CC" env var, thats better | 06:05 |
| Stele | since I'd like to try the intel icc compiler too | 06:05 |
| booner | i think g++ might use another one | 06:05 |
| Stele | according to nalioth, it must | 06:06 |
| robin_ | test | 06:06 |
| booner | it might be CPP | 06:06 |
| booner | or something | 06:06 |
| nalioth | try it this way and see. iirc, all of it follows the CC variable | 06:07 |
| booner | possibly.. i haven't tested it myself.. i'm only using gcc at the moment | 06:08 |

| Massacration | hi jpatrick could u help me with this problem? | 09:06 |
| kkathman | Massacration: thats a bit low for KDE, but KDE tends to expand to use memory when its available | 09:06 |
| Massacration | anda how do I make it use less memory? | 09:06 |
| kkathman | Massacration: you can check ksysguard, and see some things that are taking memory and close those...especially email apps and browsers | 09:06 |
| kkathman | Massacration: for instance, I have 1GB of memory and KDE uses about 80% of it unless I run other things, then it shuttles memory in and out from swap | 09:07 |
| kkathman | so thats relatively normal | 09:07 |
| Massacration | So KDE is really a memory eater | 09:08 |

| Knowerrors | turn off all animations and effects | 09:10 |
| Knowerrors | turn off drop shadows and transparencies | 09:10 |

| bl3ssing | pls? | 10:00 |
| ganymed | any ideas...? | 10:00 |
| bl3ssing | winxp will react for 1 month in a quickly way, than it will get crash ... itself. not the same for kde ... | 10:01 |

| bl3ssing | run your Adept program ... and ... try to install all the plugins for the playing files, ok? | 10:25 |
| bl3ssing | understood? | 10:25 |
| bl3ssing | snake__ maybe because you need to update your macromedia flash for linux. | 10:26 |

| l3m | ah now | 11:30 |
| l3m | it's easy | 11:30 |
| l3m | just dl xoomer's driver deb | 11:30 |
| l3m | using apt-get | 11:31 |
| l3m | and then do step 4.4 / using module-assistant | 11:31 |
| Flixor- | how can i solve this message: | 11:31 |
| Flixor- | GPG error: http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com breezy Release: Unknown error executing gpgv | 11:31 |
| l3m | nothing to worry about | 11:31 |
| _snake | Whats the apt-get for the xoomer?? | 11:32 |
| nalioth | Flixor-: install gpg? | 11:32 |
| l3m | it's right on the page you posted | 11:32 |
| bl3ssing | l3m: my sound test has perfectly passed and I can hear the system sound when it is both start or shutting down; THE BIG problem is that I want to listen to an mp3 file which's in my windows partition, and i can't hear it even i can see it; I wanted to listen to eat with xmms but it doesn't work. When I'm pressing on the Play button, it is appearing a window with 3 advices: 1. ... ITS SEEMS THAT IT IS WORKING NOW. :-) lol | 11:32 |
| l3m | _snake: ;) | 11:32 |
| l3m | pasted | 11:32 |
| bl3ssing | i've wrote this long sentences and than, when I've tried to type the 3 messages I've just hear the music. | 11:32 |
| bl3ssing | ;) | 11:32 |
| bl3ssing | hehehe | 11:32 |
| bl3ssing | maybe I've just installed the new driver ... so ... it is ok now. | 11:33 |
| Flixor- | i have gpg already installed, infect i made a private and public key and hope somebody wants to sign it | 11:33 |
| l3m | bl3ssing: well. i'd advise you to turn off the sound system in hardware settings | 11:33 |
| l3m | bl3ssing: download amarok gstreamer plugin | 11:33 |
| bl3ssing | I've already done it l3m | 11:33 |
| l3m | and use gstreamer to listen to music. amarok is way better than xmms anyway | 11:33 |
| bl3ssing | :-) | 11:33 |
| bl3ssing | thanks. | 11:33 |
| bl3ssing | really? amarok is the best? | 11:33 |
| l3m | bl3ssing: yeah but probably you still have arts running | 11:33 |
| l3m | arts = evil ;) | 11:33 |
| bl3ssing | lol | 11:34 |
| bl3ssing | I don't have arts | 11:34 |
| bl3ssing | can I uninstalle it? | 11:34 |
| l3m | bl3ssing: type this: # ps ax | grep artsd | 11:34 |
| l3m | "ps ax | grep artsd" | 11:35 |
| Flixor- | i have gpg already installed, infect i made a private and public key and hope somebody wants to sign it, nalioth | 11:35 |
| nalioth | Flixor-: what is gpgv ? | 11:36 |
| l3m | if you get any output, arts is probably still running. go to systemsettings->sound->sound system and deactivate [] enable the sound system | 11:36 |
| bl3ssing | l3m: done | 11:37 |
| Flixor- | its an openPgp tool for checking signatures | 11:37 |
| Flixor- | it seems that the repos are using signatures, and in the process checking them something is going wrong nalioth | 11:37 |
