[12:02] cause my windows drive wich is never used, well likely not used when im on kubuntu, would be nice to spin down, its a bit noisy. [12:03] djk_: u know ? [12:03] no i don't. [12:03] k [12:03] Riddell: [12:03] libben: hmm? [12:03] spin down a hdd? [12:03] is it bad? [12:03] libben: you want to go through everyone in this channel? [12:03] nope [12:03] manveru: you can have my sloppy seconds :p [12:04] no idea what you're talking about [12:04] manveru: i just pick the one i think would be best for my question. [12:04] djk_: my parents for example would rather click an icon twice if nothing happens immediatly [12:04] spin down a harddrive, so it wont make such much noise [12:04] libben: afaik it's not bad - and you can do that somehow via acpi or apm, but i'm not sure at all [12:05] manveru: i know these kind of users.. impatient users... my father would be an example as well [12:05] djk_: now, loading a splash is _really_ fast, compared with loading amarok twice [12:06] amarok will eventually find out that it is already running and cancel the loading, but it's too late already [12:07] manveru: sure, but i still don't like them. [12:07] however, my choice would be - put a splash in for everyone who doesn't care and provide the option to turn it off [12:08] that'd be good. === ubotu [n=blootbot@ubuntu.cc.com.au] has joined #kubuntu [12:08] yay [12:08] hehe [12:08] manveru: is there anyway to turn of a drive? like tell it to not be active, or wait, that is what spindown can do? like spin it down so it stops, the spin it up again? === vmware [n=vmware@bhsiao.dsl.visi.com] has joined #kubuntu [12:09] libben: i know this only from cdroms... [12:09] k [12:09] reading on the forums, trying to find a solution [12:10] yeah... better buy a new HD ^^ [12:10] i mean - noisy _and_ windows - that justifies a new clean HD with reiser4 [12:10] it must be -possible- since winxp can do it -- dunno if k/ubuntu has that capability though === slow-motion [n=xxx@p548DCCD7.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:12] i used to have my winxp set to power off the HDs after 2 hours of non-activity, when they were needed there was a delay as they were powered back on -- never had a problem with it and my drives are fairly old, so i suspect it doesn't do any harm to the drives [12:12] manveru: is reiser4 supported in kubuntu? === treefrog [n=treefrog@62.231.60.201] has joined #kubuntu [12:13] djk_: the kernel does - why shouldn't it work? === Delvien [n=dm@cpe-65-31-27-200.insight.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [12:13] manveru: reiser4 ? [12:13] Any samba experts here? [12:13] djk_: the problem might be grub... there is no support for reiser4 until version 1.0 [12:13] manveru: i dont know, just 2-3 months or so ago someone said something about reiserfs/4 not being a good choice in k/ubuntu [12:14] manveru: and i don't remember seeing reiser4 in the partitioning options during installation of breezy [12:14] djk_: of course not... even grml supports it only partially [12:15] djk_: it's still too unsupported overall - no point in including it in ubuntu === l3m [n=l3m@84-73-62-186.dclient.hispeed.ch] has joined #kubuntu [12:15] i'd have given it a try.. [12:15] oh, it's impressive... my laptop runs on it [12:15] there's something magical about reiser :) [12:16] *p00f* [12:16] i'm glad enough it's not ext3 - never had anything but problems with it [12:16] really? [12:16] Anyone here know alot about SAMBA? [12:16] Delvien: a bit...wassup? [12:16] ext3 crashes my harddisks like cornflakes ^^ [12:17] i thought ext3 was _the_ foolproof option [12:17] kkathman i cant seem to get it running [12:17] interesting. [12:17] Delvien: what have you done? [12:17] kkathman im runing vmware on my PC, and cant get it to see the linux box === insomnd [n=insomnd@CPE00055df621f8-CM000e5cdd83d2.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #kubuntu === EauTisse [n=family@e198151.upc-e.chello.nl] has joined #kubuntu [12:17] djk_: well, i also _hate_ the fscks all the time [12:18] Delvien: Vmware on Windows? [12:18] manveru: so i assume it's rather unlikely to see reiser4 in dapper? [12:18] kkathman no im running VMWARE on linux, vmware is running a windows XP copy [12:18] djk_: exactly - maybe in half a year... [12:18] ohhh hmmm thats confusing...so I dont really have much experience with samba under vmware === spud [n=spud@adsl-69-211-14-138.dsl.chcgil.ameritech.net] has joined #kubuntu === nowisn [i=nowisn@Ottawa-HSE-ppp3652950.sympatico.ca] has joined #kubuntu [12:19] my guess is that vmware might be inhibiting pass through [12:19] kkathman sigh im running linux root, not under vmware [12:19] hello all [12:19] kkathman so samba is running nativley [12:19] ahh [12:19] ok [12:19] manveru: maybe the progress would be faster if people could test it :) how did you get it on your lappy? [12:19] djk_: it's depending on grub for the most part - since that's what ubuntu uses, and grub needs some nasty hacks to support it now [12:19] kkathman the same thing is happening iwht my GFs XP pro laptop [12:19] well honestly there isnt much to do except to ensure the samba daemon is running [12:19] kkathman i wanted to isolate it so i knew it wasnt just her PC [12:20] kkathman ugh [12:20] djk_: grml is the distro of my notebook...

[12:22] djk_: could you do that again... lost the window [12:23] useful regarding people who need it.. [12:23] hmm [12:24] well, there are loads of bootdisks out there - doesn't matter wich one we use [12:25] yea, there were 2 or 3 people in the past few days with old crappy BIOS. that's why i looked for a prog and added it^^ [12:26] just wanted to know whether this is a good link or not. [12:27] i guess it is [12:28] would have to try the stuff to find out :) [12:28] hey ther I'm new to linux and I thought I'd give kubuntu a try so can someone help me out, now I installed it on a P3 500 lappy, Eurocom 3420 with a MDC Modem which kubuntu cannot find? [12:28] manveru: i don't have a working floppy drive :) [12:28] any way I can get it to find my modem cause i've been through all the kppp settings === mintywalker [n=murray@81.168.79.193] has joined #kubuntu [12:29] djk_: got two, but on my current computer the cdrom is not working anymore... never used it anyway ^^ [12:30] manveru: i could trade you a dvd-drive i haven't used in years hehe [12:30] lol [12:30] nowisn: are you on a pppoe connection?

[12:33] yea.. and even so now i don't really need the cd-drive anymore because the games i still play are abandoned games, thus freely available downloads :) [12:34] jeda: what are 'updates' ? - and what's your slave-drive? [12:34] updates, I did adept to check for updates and said there were 4 so did them, and slave drive is a 40g ide drive [12:36] ok - where did you see it before? [12:36] when I went into system / storage media [12:37] you don't remember what updates that were? [12:37] there were 4 and no I dont, however if I go into disk and file system in system settings I see it there however it isnt showing enabled [12:37] so not sure how to enable that === ToyMan [n=stuq@user-12lcqia.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #kubuntu [12:38] click on it?

[12:40] cool thanks [12:40] hmm, nothing new there [12:40] just found a new issue also lol [12:41] my amerok was playing shoutcast streams [12:41] now it just buffers to 100 and starts over??? [12:41] so no streamage [12:41] i don't know.. the winmac_fstab script is ridiculous.. it chooses the worst names.. [12:41] bah [12:41] djk_: indeed... but you have to give everyone advices how to use it anyway... [12:41] true [12:42] maybe some link for describing what fstab is could help more [12:42] so I just follow that page? [12:42] maybe i'm partial because due to that dumb name it picked i lost my hda1.. [12:42] why cant i just hand code it into the fstab? [12:42] or would that not be a good thing [12:43] jeda: you can. [12:43] jeda: of course you can [12:43] just give us some information of what this disk contains [12:43] ok so if I add it and it isnt typed right then it just wont find it right? [12:43] filesystem/mountpoint/dev-mapping [12:43] the disk contains all my backup data [12:43] yeah [12:44] from when I was running win32 but I have left that field and will never go back [12:44] maybe contains was the wrong word :) [12:44] but I need my data lol [12:44] hehe [12:44] so it's fat32?

[01:57] lwizardl: you want the .deb from the !javadeb link, then cd to where you saved it, and type "sudo dpkg -i sun" [01:57] ubuntuguide isn't that bad.. but you should know what you're doing.. [01:57] the guide is old, some of those packages are no longer in there [01:57] djk_: so true, i usually go through that first for a new system - but then again, i do know what is there, and what isnt, and what works and does not work === zquark [n=zquark@84-247-58-66.gci.net] has joined #kubuntu [01:58] yea [01:59] Hobbsee: ok did that now what [01:59] lwizardl: did you download the deb only? or run the sudo command after it?

Anyone know why Adept is telling me I need to remove kmail, kubuntu-dekstop, and some kfile-kio thing? I use kmail and i'm guessing that kubuntu-desktop is important [02:23] (when I click full upgrade) [02:23] you can let it do that [02:24] no, kubuntu-desktop is not important, it's just a metapackage like i told you earlier [02:24] kubuntu-desktop is just a package that brings in all the other kde packages [02:24] ok azureus is wokring so java should work also [02:24] it must.. [02:25] Hobbsee, djk_ : what about it getting rid of kmail?? [02:25] do you use kmail? [02:25] yes [02:25] doesn't the kde3.5 update include kmail? [02:25] Is this common, or did I do something wrong? [02:25] i'd just upgrade anyway, then install kmail after that manually [02:26] Hobbsee: I tried that with my last install (I re-installed 'cause I figured I screwed something up) and it wouldn't let me because of BREAK [02:27] !kde3.5 [02:27] methinks kde3.5 is http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php === jrattner1 [n=jrattner@uhartford216126.hartford.edu] has joined #kubuntu [02:27] djk_: yes, but it doesn't want to install it. instead it wants to just get rid of 3.4.3 [02:27] !kde3.5 [02:27] oh, cool :) [02:27] !kde3.4 [02:27] vblanton: Did you get hit by a windmill? [02:28] ...? [02:28] vblanton: kmail for kde 3.5 exists [02:28] so, is this normal? [02:28] kde3.4 isn't a valid factoid.. [02:28] i'd say so [02:29] Hobbsee: I can't remember this happening in the past... (this is my third kubuntu install, the first was a test run on a 10gig HD, the second was official, but I thought it screwed up, and this is the third) [02:29] vblanton: i dont remember either, but it should be fine [02:30] Ok, I'll do it, and then I won't be able to use kmail.

I am only getting 640x480 [06:30] convey: using xorg, yes? [06:30] flyingmayo: and it seems to be monitor dependent. xorg yes [06:31] flyingmayo: if I hook my 19" viewsonic screen up to the system it gotes to 1180x1024.

[06:33] flyingmayo: I am using the defaults [06:33] convey hmm, so if your other monitor is allowing you to use higher res's then your xorg.conf file must have more than just the 640x480 rez in it [06:33] convey I'd google for your sync rates first off [06:34] flyingmayo: yes the xorg has many high rez settings for the default monitor [06:34] flyingmayo: do not use colours.

Can anybody please tell me why there is still only Firefox 1.0.7 available through apt-get, although Firefox 1.5 is already out?

[11:06] or if they are being created when compiling ... [11:07] federico_lu: i am assuming that you mean the official.., kde usually updates everything when it suspects a change, i would uninstall the deb firefox before installing it from source [11:07] you may have to rework some shortcuts, but most should reappear [11:07] i do believe [11:07] thank you again! :-) [11:07] np [11:10] lemme ask this differently .. is anyone running 3.5 and not having issues?

[11:12] and may I ask if you installed from source, or package [11:12] package. didn't try reinstall ... could do that... [11:12] may help [11:13] ok, thanks. i might try that, can't hurt. glad to hear it's not rampant. sorry to hear it sucks for me. :) === vicks [n=chatzill@c-d78870d5.037-42-67626719.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #kubuntu === crashprone [n=crash@d142-179-34-187.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:16] One thing I was always wondering about, are why the same fonts look "smoother" on Linux than on Windows? And is there a setting to make them look "sharper" again, as in Windows? I think they will look better that way on my screen. I hope my explanation was not too complicated :-) [11:16] is* [11:17] Linux has anti-aliasing for all fonts [11:17] kcontrol, check anti-aliasing [11:17] you can turn it off [11:17] i bbl === eckhart [n=eckhart@p549B95BC.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has left #kubuntu ["Kopete] === os2mac [n=jim@ip68-10-71-214.hr.hr.cox.net] has joined #kubuntu === _mt [n=mt@welcome-le.man.mux.nu] has joined #kubuntu === andre is now known as andre^off === djk_ [n=djk@p54A2CBA6.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:23] hey djk_ :) [11:23] hey kkathman :) [11:23] how's it going? === permanewb [n=kshaw@adsl-216-103-209-252.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net] has left #kubuntu [] [11:23] ok..not bad [11:24] weather here cancelled my flight today...so I didnt have to travel [11:24] that's good.

[11:34] I'm wondering if it's the same/faster/slower than x over ssh [11:35] kkathman what is actually happening is that I can boot all of the way into the window system, the network works for a short while and then cuts out, tried dhclient, and a manual down up, nothing seems to be helping, ifconfig shows good info, but its like the i/o is disabled for the card, not letting me access anything [11:36] ClayG ssh would probably be more secure, but i don't know what is faster, probably term serv b/c it is designed for that [11:37] ciao, qualcuno dall'italia?
