| mpm2 | I didn't think so | 12:06 |
| Patrick` | anyone care to fill me in on the backstory about memtest86+ versus memtest86? | 12:06 |
| os2mac | sounds like the card isn't being recognized... | 12:06 |
| os2mac | did you try your other slot? | 12:06 |
| Patrick` | other than different version numbers and a false claim that memtest86 hadn't updated for over 2 years, I can't choose between them | 12:06 |
| mpm2 | os2mac yes I did | 12:07 |
| mpm2 | os2mac could the card recognition depend upon what packages are installed or no? | 12:07 |
| os2mac | sounds like a pcmcia problem rather than a networking problem.... | 12:07 |
| mpm2 | os2mac I agree... it's got 2 little leds on it, neither of which is lighting up when I insert it... you think they should be illuminated don't you? | 12:08 |
| os2mac | yes.... | 12:09 |
| os2mac | it should start searching as soon as you plug it in.... | 12:09 |
| os2mac | sounds like your pcmcia is not running. | 12:09 |

| jperry | bam: interesting...probably not the same - what laptop do you have? Also I notice at startup dmesg is showing wbsd complaining that auto config failed "configuring manually" | 05:07 |

| jperry | ...strange that - sounds automatic to me if it's trying it | 05:07 |
| Insomniac- | jsubl2: does linux have default limits on the amount of memory a user can use, similar to the filesystem where a portion is reserved for root? | 05:08 |
| jperry | that;s failed, now configuring manually | 05:08 |
| jsubl2 | Insomniac-: not sure.. don't recall ever seeing any limits like that. | 05:08 |
| jsubl2 | Insomniac-: you can control-alt-f1 login and kill the process. but if all memory is gone that can be really slow and painfaul.. control-alt-backspace is another option | 05:09 |
| jsubl2 | Insomniac-: I manually installed firefox 1.5 because of issues i had with 1.0.7 | 05:10 |

| anek | hi | 08:06 |
| anek | I have the liveCD, is there a way to install it onto hd? | 08:07 |
| Tm_T | anek: not much point | 08:08 |
| anek | Tm_T: I know... just asking, since I dont have the install CD. | 08:13 |
| Tm_T | anek: hmm, and you can't get one? | 08:13 |
| Insomniac- | i never understood why ubuntu uses 2 cds containing mostly the same | 08:14 |
| Tm_T | I understand it very well | 08:15 |
| Insomniac- | then why? | 08:15 |
| Tm_T | if you have installing packages in livecd, there's not much you can get into it | 08:15 |
| Tm_T | like, only ~300M for each | 08:16 |
| Tm_T | instead of whole cd for one purpose | 08:16 |
| Insomniac- | you don't need the actual .debs when you can just copy the rootfs to disk | 08:16 |
| Tm_T | that's not good idea | 08:16 |
| Insomniac- | why not? | 08:16 |
| Tm_T | what if you wan't only few packages from cd? | 08:16 |
| Insomniac- | it can be split into seperate images | 08:17 |
| Tm_T | ... | 08:17 |
| Insomniac- | like knoppix does with unionfs | 08:17 |
| Tm_T | no point | 08:17 |
| Tm_T | you say what you say, I like the way it is | 08:17 |
| Insomniac- | why not? | 08:17 |
| Insomniac- | i disagree... it's a waste of bandwidth and cds | 08:18 |

| Insomniac- | Tm_T: not ideal but neither is having 2 cds | 08:23 |
| anek | Live CD has a complete /var/lib/dpkg hierarchy, so it's possible to customize it later, only if it was possible to install(basically copy) it onto hd... | 08:25 |
| Insomniac- | that's easy | 08:25 |
| anek | including the boot loader..? | 08:26 |
| Insomniac- | sure why not? | 08:26 |
| Insomniac- | just create a installer script similar to the one used on the install cd | 08:26 |
| Insomniac- | i used to clone systems all the time by tarring the rootfs through nc and untarring at the other machine, then writing the bootloader to mbr | 08:27 |
| Insomniac- | this is similar only it creates the problem of installing a single package from the install cd when you don't have/want to use internet access | 08:29 |
| anek | I wouldn't ask any of this if I already had the instal CD... | 08:30 |
| Insomniac- | it's not very user friendly to new users though having to use a second package manager, that's probably why this approach was chosen | 08:30 |

| weissi | hi, is it possible to put the kubuntu installer on some floppies and get the rest via the internet (like debian's netinst)? | 08:41 |
| Insomniac- | machine without a cd/dvd drive? | 08:43 |
| weissi | yep | 08:43 |
| Insomniac- | i don't know whether there are premade floppies out there, but you could also netboot the machine | 08:43 |
| weissi | (but I have only _ONE_ machine there, so ubuntu-wiki/Installation/netboot is not usable :(-(( ) | 08:44 |
| weissi | I don't want to netboot, I just want to netinst ;-) | 08:44 |
| weissi | hmm, shit | 08:44 |
| Insomniac- | if there are no ubuntu netinst floppies you could use the debian ones, change your sources.list and upgrade to ubuntu | 08:44 |
| weissi | kewl, you think that works? (change sources.list --> ubuntu --> apt-get dist-upgrade ?!? ) | 08:45 |
| Insomniac- | yeah | 08:45 |
| Insomniac- | might have some minor issues but it shouldn't be too hard | 08:46 |
| weissi | ok, if they're "minor" thats ok, | 08:46 |
| Insomniac- | if you have the time to try it why not | 08:46 |
| Insomniac- | learn by doing :) | 08:47 |
| weissi | *g* the thing is: I will be able to install it anyway, but I don't want to waste sooo much time | 08:47 |
| Insomniac- | never done it myself but i've heard people talking about doing a debian -> ubuntu upgrade | 08:47 |
| weissi | cool, thanks, I'll try it :-) | 08:48 |
| Insomniac- | in such cases i either netboot or put in a temporary cdrom drive myself | 08:49 |
| Insomniac- | but that's not that simple if you have only one system | 08:49 |
| Insomniac- | hmm amarok is slow handling large playlists | 08:50 |
| weissi | correct, and I have no cd-burner ;-) | 08:51 |
| weissi | (is damaged) | 08:52 |
| weissi | Most of the time I'm using debian servers, there the installation is no problem | 08:52 |
| Insomniac- | weissi: cloning systems is nice and fast too | 08:52 |
| weissi | perhaps even a usb-mass-storage-drive boot ;-) (if the bios supports it) | 08:53 |

| Insomniac- | i used to run windows in vmware at my work | 09:07 |

| weissi | I didn't run it ever, I switched from MS-DOS 5.00 to linux | 09:12 |
| Insomniac- | i returned to running windows a few years ago because of a general lack of applications and usability but things have much improved | 09:13 |
| weissi | I always hated the way to interact via a mouse all the time, so I liked linux more than windows. but the lack of some apps is sometimes annoying, that's right (I own a Sony-HiMD-Player, where music-upload is only possible from win32 :-(( ) | 09:14 |

| weissi | oh, looks nice! But I don't like the endless starting time of kde apps, if you don't use kde.. | 09:18 |
| meglamoor | im a newbie to kubuntu, just installed it. Anyone can tell me how to run programs that i install with adept or create short cuts for them? | 09:18 |
| freelove | any recommendations? | 09:19 |
| weissi | freelove: I like ion3, but tell us, what kind of wm do you search (what features do you want/need)? | 09:19 |
| freelove | meglamoor: things u install with adept automatically go to the kmenu:) | 09:19 |
| Insomniac- | weissi: yeah kde is a bit bloated.. still i prefer usability over the most efficient way of doing things | 09:19 |
| meglamoor | ok | 09:19 |
| meglamoor | they didnt though | 09:20 |
| freelove | i want a window manager thats good in usabiltiy as kde:) | 09:20 |
| meglamoor | i just addeed firefox and a bittornado | 09:20 |
| freelove | yet lighter........ | 09:20 |
| meglamoor | and i dont see them there | 09:20 |
| weissi | Insomniac-: I used kde, too (a long time), but now I use ion3 and I'm a lot happier ;-) | 09:20 |
| Insomniac- | weissi: i've tried alot of wm's but that one i've never even heard of | 09:21 |
| weissi | freelove: you know, that a window-manager _ONLY_ manages the windows, no desktop icons, K-menues, ... ??? | 09:21 |
| weissi | freelove: kde is a desktop environment | 09:21 |
| freelove | weissi: but there are menus right? | 09:21 |
| weissi | freelove: no | 09:21 |
| freelove | ive seen it in screenshots.......like in xfce..... | 09:21 |
| weissi | freelove: xfce is a desktop environment, too | 09:22 |
| freelove | see http://enlightenment.sourceforge.net/Enlightenment/Screenshots/DR17_User_Screenshots/_previews/screenshot2.png.html | 09:23 |
| freelove | ok then i meant a desktop environment:) | 09:23 |
| weissi | freelove: that(http://www.gentoo-portage.com/Image/523)'s a window-manager | 09:23 |
| meglamoor | whatever it is, i just want downloaded a program called bittornado using adept | 09:24 |
| meglamoor | it installed it | 09:24 |
| meglamoor | but its nowhere to be found | 09:24 |
| weissi | freelove: hmm, I like WindowMaker, it's like NextStep | 09:24 |
| weissi | freelove: or as you told: xfce (did you try it, I didn't) | 09:24 |
| freelove | this is so lovely:) http://enlightenment.sourceforge.net/Enlightenment/Screenshots/DR17_User_Screenshots/_images/vandango_e17_screen.png | 09:25 |

| weissi | freelove: ah, so it's not you screenshot... It looks very nice, and seems to be dr17 as window-manager and some kind of menu-making program (perhaps it's a gnome panel??? ) | 09:28 |
| weissi | Insomniac-: not yet finished, but seems to work! | 09:28 |
| Insomniac- | :) | 09:29 |

| weissi | bam_: yeah, rocks! | 09:29 |
| weissi | bye guys | 09:29 |
| freelove | bam_: where to get ion3? screenshots? | 09:30 |
| bam_ | saw his screenshot from the link above | 09:31 |
| bam_ | but kde is quite fast enough for me | 09:31 |
| bam_ | i wonder if ion3 will play well with kde | 09:32 |
| Insomniac- | just set it up and you can opt to start it in kdm's login screen | 09:32 |
| freelove | kde aint that fast for me....kdm comes so late....it takes ages just to log out...gives an error too.....this kde 3.5....... | 09:33 |
| Insomniac- | kde doesn't start until you login in kdm with kde selected | 09:34 |
| Insomniac- | any slowness before that has nothing to do with kde | 09:35 |
| freelove | hmm..maybe....... | 09:36 |

| freelove | megla22: type update-menus in terminal.......then u might see it...... | 09:38 |
| bam_ | aaha, didnt know that | 09:39 |
| freelove | megla22: if u really want a listing of all programs, gui or not, sudo apt-get install menu.......u'll get a debian menu which lists all ur programs:) | 09:39 |

| freelove | update-menus | 09:39 |

| megla22 | wierd, linux is so wierd... i want to understand it | 09:40 |
| bam_ | linux is easy | 09:40 |
| Insomniac- | freelove: does it list all the installed packages or does it list all executable binaries in the path? | 09:40 |

| Insomniac- | and i can't find the cause | 09:51 |
| megla22 | i just rebootedd and its not there | 09:52 |
| slyder | add it manually i think that's what i had to end up doing | 09:52 |
| megla22 | the thing that i dont get is, why have a good system of downloading packages when it is so convoluted where they go | 09:52 |
| megla22 | i could just run the executable file, but i cant even find that, i have no idea where it goes. :) i need a class on linux | 09:53 |

| Insomniac- | type bt and hit tab | 09:53 |
| Insomniac- | it'll try to complete the command | 09:53 |
| Insomniac- | and show you all commands starting with bt | 09:53 |
| Insomniac- | it's called btdownload-gui or something like that | 09:53 |
| slyder | it's probably in bin folder megla22 | 09:53 |
| freelove | megla22: now i got it!!!!!! bittornado is a commandline tool!!! install bittornado gui!!!!!!!! | 09:54 |
| freelove | ?? | 09:54 |

| Insomniac- | trekkor: if the source is available you could create a debian/ubuntu package for it | 10:28 |
| Insomniac- | check whether debian has one | 10:28 |
| Insomniac- | you could install a debian package on ubuntu without too much hassle | 10:28 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: debian doesn't have it | 10:29 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: btw, any idea why ubuntu seems to... hate silc? | 10:29 |
| Insomniac- | no.. silc is a secure irc variant if i remember correctly right? | 10:29 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: yes | 10:30 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: i mean, not even for gaim? gaim-silc is popular. | 10:30 |
| crimsun | hmm? silc is built into gaim. | 10:30 |
| Insomniac- | i doubt ubuntu hates silc, maybe there isn't a package just because nobody has made one yet? | 10:30 |
| crimsun | just choose the silc protocol when modifying an account in gaim | 10:31 |
| trekkor | crimsun: not for ubuntu or redhat. for windows only. | 10:31 |
| === merlino bangs his head violently on the desk | ||
| trekkor | crimsun: i don't find silc in the protocols list ! | 10:32 |
| trekkor | crimsun: strange. | 10:32 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: create a package | 10:32 |
| trekkor | crimsun: are you sure it's on your list? do you use ubuntu? | 10:32 |
| Insomniac- | or use debian's if they have one | 10:33 |
| crimsun | that's odd, it was there last I went to create one | 10:33 |
| crimsun | tried silky, then? | 10:34 |
| trekkor | crimsun: silky does work, but is not what i want (or am talking about, anyway) | 10:34 |
| bam_ | is there a way to tweak the background in konq's sidebar? | 10:36 |
| trekkor | crimsun: actually, is it possible to add debian repositories in ubuntu?! | 10:36 |
| crimsun | trekkor: it's not recommended | 10:36 |
| bam_ | you could break a whole lot | 10:36 |
| bam_ | merlino, guidedog is what you want | 10:37 |
| merlino | bam_: alright | 10:38 |
| bam_ | gui-baed too | 10:38 |
| bam_ | *based | 10:38 |
| trekkor | crimsun: any reason at all why ubuntu packages are not compatible with debian ones? | 10:39 |
| crimsun | trekkor: they are source-compatible but not necessarily binary-compatible due to differing build-time dependencies | 10:42 |
| crimsun | trekkor: and http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=273871 should give a clue as to why gaim doesn't currently have silc support | 10:42 |
| merlino | > [12/Dec/2005:02:45:05] Bind to socket on port 8000 failed. Shutting down now. | 10:43 |
| merlino | any ideas why i am getting such an error? | 10:43 |
| trekkor | crimsun: thank you | 10:45 |
| trekkor | crimsun: not that i don't care about debian policies, in fact i admire their efforts!, but, well, if it's a violation and heck, why doesn't ubuntu then include it in... plf?! | 10:52 |
| Insomniac- | ubuntu probably has a similar policy | 10:54 |
| merlino | what could be causing port 8000 to fail to bind | 10:56 |
| manveru | merlino: another server, running on that port? | 10:57 |
| Insomniac- | did you run the firewall script as a user? you need root privileges for iptables stuff iirc | 10:57 |
| merlino | I haven't installed anything else that could run it though, this is a fresh clean install | 10:57 |

| TooSad | sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins gstreamer0.8-plugins-multiverse gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg | 11:41 |
| TooSad | i have installed these | 11:41 |
| Insomniac- | execute gst-register-0.8 | 11:43 |
| Insomniac- | that updates the gstreamer codec cache | 11:43 |
| Insomniac- | does that help? | 11:43 |
| TooSad | not yet | 11:43 |
| Insomniac- | go to settings -> configure amarok in amarok | 11:44 |
| Insomniac- | then click on engine | 11:44 |
| Insomniac- | does it use the gstreamer engine? | 11:44 |
| merlino | Insomniac-: icecast is making me want to bang my head open lol | 11:46 |
| Insomniac- | why? | 11:47 |
| TooSad | Insomniac the engine is just gstreamer | 11:47 |
| TooSad | plugin in out is alsasink | 11:48 |
| Insomniac- | TooSad: then i don't remember what i installed what is not in the guide to get mp3 support for amarok | 11:48 |
| TooSad | ah | 11:48 |
| TooSad | ok | 11:48 |
| merlino | i ant seem to get it working at all | 11:48 |
| Insomniac- | TooSad: try installing gstreamer0.8-mad | 11:49 |
| Insomniac- | then running gst-register-0.8 again, then restart amarok | 11:49 |
| TooSad | just made | 11:49 |

| merlino | no the version debien installs from apt-get is 1.3.2 ( or something) and it is extremely outdated | 12:00 |
| Insomniac- | debian tends to lag behind alot in the stable repositories | 12:00 |
| Insomniac- | still.. they do tend to maintain their packages | 12:01 |

| trekkor | btw, any idea how i can get kdm offer me a menu with boot alternatives on next machine startup? | 01:30 |
| eXistenZ | I've seen another user who reported the same problem. But there are other users who got their kde up and running well | 01:30 |
| eXistenZ | trekkor, what boot alternatives? | 01:31 |
| eXistenZ | trekkor, different operating systems? | 01:31 |
| trekkor | eXistenZ: yes, different partitions | 01:31 |
| eXistenZ | trekkor, I don't think it's the task of kdm. It's rather the task of grub/lilo, the bootloader. | 01:32 |
| trekkor | eXistenZ: so that it won't be necessary for grub to ask me which partition i want to boot from | 01:32 |
| trekkor | eXistenZ: yes, but it seems they can be combined somehow | 01:32 |
| Insomniac- | kdm is not a bootloader | 01:32 |

| === viviersf [n=cain@dsl-146-101-79.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| trekkor | eXistenZ, Insomniac, thoreauputic: kdm may be combined with grub / lilo and set them to boot a certain partition on next boot | 01:33 |
| thoreauputic | trekkor: erm, not unless you are running an emulator or something | 01:33 |
| Insomniac- | sure but that's kind of pointless | 01:33 |
| trekkor | eXistenZ: i am a newbye to ubuntu from mandriva and i can tell you mandriva does this | 01:33 |
| Insomniac- | kdm can be made to change the default in grub/lilo config, but why? | 01:34 |
| trekkor | thoreauputic: no emulator | 01:34 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: it doesn't do it by changing the default | 01:34 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: it seems it uses some other lilo / grub options | 01:34 |
| thoreauputic | trekkor: as mentioned, kdm is not a boot loader - the options are in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 01:35 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: all i know is it is possible | 01:35 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: well copy the required files/config from your old distro if you're so inclined | 01:35 |
| trekkor | thoreauputic: i know, but it can influence a bootloader, just as much as it can influence some x settings | 01:35 |
| trekkor | s/x/x11/ | 01:36 |
| thoreauputic | well, kdm can't load until the OS is booted, so if that is so it is just writing something to /boot/grub/menu.lst - I don't see the point really | 01:36 |
| Kibou | convenience | 01:38 |
| eXistenZ | thoreauputic, are you using 3.5? | 01:38 |
| trekkor | thoreauputic: here's the use case: i want to reboot from kdm and i want to specify i want grub to boot into linux at startup. then, when i come back from the toilet, i find my computer booted in windows | 01:38 |
| trekkor | thoreauputic: here's the use case: i want to reboot from kdm and i want to specify i want grub to boot into WINDOWS at startup. then, when i come back from the toilet, i find my computer booted in windows | 01:38 |
| trekkor | i corrected it | 01:38 |
| trekkor | sorry | 01:38 |
| thoreauputic | trekkor: ah I see - you want an option switch :) | 01:38 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: that still means you have to logout from kde before you can use that option | 01:39 |
| trekkor | thoreauputic: yes :) | 01:39 |

| trekkor | Insomniac-: right | 01:56 |
| Insomniac- | just tcp | 01:56 |
| Insomniac- | you tell netcat on one machine to listen on a port | 01:56 |

| Insomniac- | and netcat on the other machine to send to the first machine on the specified port | 01:57 |

| trekkor | manveru: just what i was saying | 01:59 |
| Insomniac- | haven't used it but i can imagine what it does | 01:59 |
| Insomniac- | you can use the fish kio_slave in kde | 01:59 |
| manveru | i use it everyday for work :) | 01:59 |
| ilba7r | hi how can i check my installed wireless driver version. I have ipw2200 card but do not know which driver version i have | 02:00 |
| manveru | yeah, fish is much better if you just wanna copy something quick | 02:00 |
| Insomniac- | type fish://hostname to browse remote ssh connections with konqueror | 02:00 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: sshfs is system-wide, not kde-only | 02:00 |
| trekkor | i doubt kio_slave works under bash | 02:00 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: i know but i don't see the point of mounting stuff over ssh | 02:01 |
| Insomniac- | in bash you can transfer stuff using scp | 02:01 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: this way my gaim folder is on just one computer and i can mount it from whichever computer i want over my lan | 02:01 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: ... and use it for gaim | 02:02 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: you could also do that with a unencrypted protocol which is much faster and causes less cpu load | 02:02 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: like...? | 02:02 |
| manveru | hey guys... for every task there is the right tool | 02:02 |
| Insomniac- | or you could just ssh into that machine and have gaim display on your local machine | 02:02 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: nfs or smb, or ... | 02:02 |
| Insomniac- | exactly | 02:03 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: the latter solution is not as fast as running gaim locally | 02:03 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: they say nfs should be considered obsolete as it's quite insecure | 02:03 |
| manveru | i very much prefer sshfs for continous work on a machine... but fish is good for quick tasks... | 02:03 |

| thoreauputic_ | trekkor: it locks things down all right, but you run the risk of locking yourself in totally :) | 02:11 |

| Insomniac- | maybe | 02:11 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: why shouldn't there be some collections of such scripts | 02:11 |
| Insomniac- | to me it means i know what i'm doing | 02:11 |
| Insomniac- | sure you can use a firewall gui but it's better if you understand what iptables is and does | 02:11 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: i myself know what i am doing (at least sometimes), but it takes too much time... and too much repetitive work | 02:12 |
| thoreauputic_ | trekkor: guarddog is pretty good as an iptables front-end | 02:12 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: once you have written an initscript you can take it anywhere and make minor adjustments, what repetitive work are you referring to? | 02:12 |
| trekkor | thoreauputic_: even shorewall is considered an iptables front-end... it's just that it needs its own front-end :D | 02:13 |

| trekkor | Insomniac-: maintenance. i wrote some scripts for mandriva... now i have to adapt them to ubuntu. | 02:13 |

| trekkor | LeeJunFan: it's a HUGE difference between "per user" and "per [process belonging to a certain] user" | 02:23 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: HUGE | 02:24 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: still i fail to see how your integrated solution is a better one | 02:24 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: they all believe they can do it with ulimit, but ulimit does nothing. not even when it actually works, that is. :) | 02:24 |
| Insomniac- | ulimit works as advertized | 02:24 |

| Insomniac- | trekkor: it's a bad idea to automatically profile the syscalls you want to allow programs to use | 02:27 |
| thompa | and there are a bunch of dependencies | 02:27 |
| LeeJunFan | thompa: first you'll have to add 'deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde35 breezy main' to /etc/apt/sources.list, then install kubuntu-desktop | 02:28 |
| Insomniac- | sure it works but it's not secure | 02:28 |

| thompa | i did that | 02:28 |

| dv | Insomniac-, if you want security, openbsd might be a better choice anyway :) | 02:29 |

| trekkor | "trekkor: If you limit any user from using all your ram who cares if they use all THEIR alloted ram on one app or 100?" -- that is exactly my point! | 02:29 |

| dv | LeeJunFan, some good reasons for 3.5 over 3.4? | 02:29 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: ^^ | 02:29 |

| trekkor | LeeJunFan: i am sorry, but i have to disagree: ulimit only limits the ram used by each process of a user. | 02:32 |
| kkathman | thompa: you might wish to postpone 3.5 until some of the apps catch up with it | 02:32 |
| LeeJunFan | thompa: probably better to stick with 3.4.3 really. | 02:32 |
| kkathman | yep LeeJunFan :) | 02:32 |
| thompa | are there some problems? | 02:33 |
| wimpies | need some help with sound. Mplayer works from console but any KDE app fails opening alsa | 02:33 |
| thompa | how is kontact? | 02:33 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: so, if the limit is, say, 50 mb, then, if that user runs 1000 processes, each of them using 50 mb, my computer is ****ed | 02:33 |
| kkathman | thompa: yes many problems for about 80% of the people that have installed it | 02:33 |
| dv | wimpies, maybe its trying to use arts | 02:33 |
| thompa | crap | 02:33 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: if security matters that much to you, you might want to learn more, or even switch to something like openbsd which is built from the ground up with security in mind | 02:34 |
| kkathman | thompa: its a transitional release anyway | 02:34 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: in short, ulimit is a BIG LIE | 02:34 |
| thompa | i read that konqueror pexceeds firefox and IE in speed | 02:34 |
| dv | yes, its fast | 02:34 |
| LeeJunFan | trekkor: limit the # of things they can run. | 02:34 |
| kkathman | thompa: if you can get konq to work right | 02:34 |
| dv | but I dont like the wallet | 02:34 |
| wimpies | dv : probably but AFAIK it is enabled ('enable sound system' is checked | 02:34 |
| trekkor | Insomniac-: btw, why doesn't ubuntu use a bsd kernel? | 02:34 |
| dv | it just doesnt work, and it crashes | 02:34 |
| kkathman | dv - fast but crashes..hmmm | 02:34 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: because ubuntu is a *linux* distribution | 02:34 |
| kkathman | hehe | 02:34 |
| dv | kkathman, not konqueror itself | 02:34 |
| kkathman | right | 02:34 |
| dv | but the wallet | 02:34 |
| kkathman | well konq has some issues too | 02:35 |
| thompa | is the problem with kde 3.5 in general or debian and 3.5? | 02:35 |
| dv | yes | 02:35 |
| kkathman | under 3.5 | 02:35 |
| dv | but i like it | 02:35 |
| kkathman | thompa: 3.5 in general | 02:35 |
| dv | quite slick browser | 02:35 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: yes, i can limit the number of processes they run, but this is quite expensive; maybe i want them to use as many processes as they wish, as long as they don't occupy my ram | 02:35 |
| LeeJunFan | trekkor: set the ulimit on their initial shell, ulimit works on the calling shell and processes started by it, if you limit the initial shell all apps started by it share it's limits. | 02:35 |
| thompa | there are a few distros offering it default already | 02:35 |
| kkathman | kde's platform was released, but many apps havent caught up | 02:35 |
| thompa | Ark for one | 02:35 |
| thompa | ok ok | 02:35 |
| kkathman | thompa: probably Dapper will as well | 02:36 |
| dv | wimpies, try killall artsd | 02:36 |
| thompa | im mostly interested in Kontact | 02:36 |
| dv | then try the kde app again | 02:36 |
| kkathman | but by then, the apps will have caught up | 02:36 |

| trekkor | Insomniac-: well, it would be a bsd distro if it used a bsd kernel, so what's the problem? :) | 02:37 |

| Insomniac- | trekkor: that's just stupid | 02:38 |
| wimpies | dv : something on board intel8x0 but It should work because I previously had a debian system and there it worked just fine | 02:39 |
| Insomniac- | by that reasoning windows is a bsd distro if it used a bsd kernel | 02:39 |
| kkathman | thompa: you might look at Firefox | 02:39 |
| thompa | is anybody haveing problems with kontact in 3.5 | 02:39 |

| kkathman | well it doesnt come with it, they are both addons | 02:40 |
| wimpies | dv : my debian was too old | 02:40 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: however, iirc, -- and yet another stupid issue of ulimit!! -- one can only limit the number of processes PER LOGIN. just imagine that! ulimit is more like some sort of machine gun for killing mosquitos | 02:40 |
| kkathman | thompa: I just liked the idea of everything being in one place...and Opera does an excellent job of automatically filing my emails and feeds | 02:40 |
| LeeJunFan | trekkor: you can also limit the # of logins | 02:41 |
| thompa | do you use a calendar? | 02:41 |

| thompa | can anybody tell me if kontact is the same in 3.4 -3.5 | 02:42 |
| thompa | or does it matter | 02:42 |
| LeeJunFan | thompa: because they are meant to all work together. | 02:42 |
| Insomniac- | trekkor: saying it would be something else if it used something else is kind of a moot point, no? | 02:42 |
| wimpies | dv : Just tried xmms and first failed (used OSS) but then switched to ALSA and there it worked. COuld this be also the case in ARTSD ? | 02:42 |
| thompa | what apps are people having trouble with in 3.5? | 02:43 |
| dv | maybe | 02:43 |
| thompa | i like koffice and kontact and konqueror is all i want really | 02:44 |
| thompa | but konqueror has been so slow earlier | 02:44 |
| wimpies | no just tried to set it to alsa but does not work either. I did hear some sound in my headphone but noatun and others still fail ??? | 02:44 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: plus it's terribly unpractical: just imagine: if i want to allow for processes up to 50 mb then i have to allow for just one process and one login for each user, so as to make sure my ten users will get along well on my 512 machine | 02:44 |
| dv | thompa, kontact has a calendar and outlook supprt in 3.4 | 02:44 |
| thompa | dv: how so outlook support? | 02:45 |

| kkathman | dv is there any diff if I get thunderbird from the web site, vs repos? | 02:48 |

| kkathman | ok | 02:49 |
| kkathman | big diff with firefox :) | 02:49 |
| dv | ff 1.5 supports svg, this is very nice. | 02:49 |
| kkathman | much easier from their site .. and less buggy..though I know some people that actually got the source and compiled it..and say its very fast | 02:49 |
| Insomniac- | the package manager won't know it is installed so stuff that depends on it will fail to install or it might try and overwrite your manually installed firefox unless you tell the package manager you installed it | 02:49 |
| kkathman | Insomniac-: I would just be installing thunderbird only | 02:50 |
| kkathman | not firefox | 02:50 |
| Insomniac- | then s/firefox/thunderbird/ | 02:50 |
| trekkor | LeeJunFan: ulimit is only useful for protecting against some accidents (and that only in an accidental way!). nobody can use it under normal circumstances. and nobody should. in short: i hate ulimit (just because it gives the feeling "it does something") | 02:50 |

| jager | users can mount it | 05:36 |

| jager | since it is in fstab i get this ugly ERROR on boot | 05:36 |

| Insomniac- | set it to noauto | 05:36 |
| Insomniac- | so it doesn't try to automount | 05:36 |
| jager | does kubuntu do rc.local? | 05:36 |
| jager | where do i put the script in other words | 05:36 |
| LeeJunFan | jager: no. it's /etc/boot.d or something. | 05:36 |

| jager | ok i'll just goodle | 05:37 |

| Kimppa | Hello. I was wondering if someone could help me a bit. I'm having troubles with my sound device(s). For example, I have to reboot X, to get Skype to work. When I put amarok on, it says it has some kind of problems with xine-engine, and therefore uses artsengine. However, if I try to play anything, I won't get any sound out - amarok just freezes. To get amarok to work, I have to manually change the sound engine from arts back to xine :-| | 05:37 |
| Insomniac- | jager: you could make a initscript in /etc/init.d/ and symlink it in /etc/rc2.d/ as one of the last things to run | 05:38 |
| Kimppa | skype won't work, if some other software has been using the sound engine | 05:38 |
| Kimppa | I've set KDE to release the sound engine after 1 second of idle, but it didn't help | 05:38 |
| LeeJunFan | jager: it's /etc/rc.boot - a directory you put scripts / exe's in that get run on startup. | 05:38 |
| jager | hey thanks LeeJunFan | 05:38 |
| Kimppa | any ideas? | 05:38 |

| jager | it's a dir with a single file inside | 06:40 |
| Insomniac- | tictric: me neither but i can't find where to turn the crap off | 06:40 |
| Insomniac- | jager: then you just made the wrong symlink | 06:40 |
| jager | that's what i get for not paying atention :P | 06:41 |
| Insomniac- | jager: usually initscripts all go in /etc/init.d/ | 06:41 |
| Insomniac- | with symlinks in /etc/rc?.d | 06:41 |
| Insomniac- | with ? being a number between 0 and 6 or so | 06:41 |
| Insomniac- | specifying at which runlevels which programs should execute | 06:41 |
| Insomniac- | move your file to /etc/init.d/ | 06:41 |
| Insomniac- | and make a symlink in /etc/rc2.d | 06:42 |
| Insomniac- | starting it's name with S99 | 06:42 |
| Insomniac- | so it starts as one of the last things | 06:42 |

| LeeJunFan | emidio: just use adept for kubuntu, it's because ubotu is more ubuntu centric. Click the adept menu, then choose to manage repositories. | 07:24 |

| jager | i don't understand the question | 10:58 |
| kerian | eh... the easiest way is just to make another partition | 10:58 |
| Coolio10 | then it will automatically add it back to c? | 10:58 |
| jager | ahh | 10:58 |
| jager | no | 10:58 |
| mrj | hey | 10:58 |
| jager | you need a 3rd party tool | 10:58 |
| mrj | boys | 10:58 |
| mrj | i have a problem | 10:58 |
| jager | ms's tools aren't bright enough to do that | 10:58 |

| cryogen12 | has ne1 had any luck installing with a sli rig mine keeps freezing during boot? | 10:58 |
| kerian | if you want the easy way, just make a new drive... call it D or whatever | 10:58 |
| Coolio10 | how to add back to c? | 10:58 |
| Coolio10 | tahst what i want | 10:58 |
| jager | you need partition magic | 10:59 |
| mrj | when i download skype.xxx.xxx.xxx.deb from skype site and install it with dpkg -i skype.xxx.xxx.xxx.deb | 10:59 |
| jager | or something similar | 10:59 |
| kerian | if you want to add it back to C, you need to use another tool | 10:59 |
| jager | maybe qtparted would do it, from a knoppix disk or something | 10:59 |
| jager | i dunno | 10:59 |
| mrj | then it says that skype depends on a package that is not installable | 10:59 |
| === kerian continues talking on top of jager (sorry man) | ||

| troy | hey, with kde3.5 installed I'm getting duplication when I insert a CD - 3.5's media dialog opens, and kubuntu's old 'mount and show' is also happening - is there a way I can disable kubuntu's old behavior? | 11:01 |
| jager | hey i have a minor nit | 11:01 |
| Coolio10 | if i delete the free sapce from computer management what will happen? | 11:02 |
| jager | the system settings control panel thingy is heinously ugly, how do you revert it to kde default? | 11:02 |
| Coolio10 | will it physically remove it or add it to somewhere? | 11:02 |
| jager | you can't delete free space Coolio10 | 11:02 |
| jager | won't do anything at all | 11:02 |
| Coolio10 | ok | 11:03 |
| kerian | mrj: does apt-get build-dep skype(whatever) do something here? | 11:03 |
| Coolio10 | dang there is no free trial for partition magic! | 11:03 |
| jager | aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh | 11:04 |
| Coolio10 | o yeah i forgot to ask a question about the kubuntu install! | 11:04 |
| jager | now my stupid projectm stuff doesn't work anymore | 11:04 |
| === jager sobs inconsolably | ||
| Coolio10 | when it asks for hostname do i leave it defaulty or change it because i changed it and its asking me for login and password | 11:05 |
| Coolio10 | i do have a lan and router but whats hostname for? | 11:05 |
| === aseigo_home [n=aseigo@S0106001346471bcf.cg.shawcable.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Coolio10 | i changed it anyway though i have no idea what to do with it | 11:05 |
| kerian | hostname is an ID for your machine on the network | 11:06 |
| Coolio10 | and thats why i removed it plus grub wont automatically boot after a certain time! | 11:06 |
| cryogen12 | has ne1 got a sli system to install without getting hung on boot is there a workaround | 11:06 |
| kerian | various parts of the system will use that name to identify the machine | 11:06 |
| kerian | hmm... can you remove the hostname? | 11:06 |
| Coolio10 | how do i find it or would i just leave it default? | 11:07 |
| Coolio10 | how? | 11:07 |
| kerian | eh... easiest way to find it (for me anyways) is to bring up a terminal and type 'hostname' | 11:07 |
| kerian | there is likely somewhere in kubuntu to set and view it graphically... | 11:08 |

| kerian | ahh | 11:11 |
| Coolio10 | anyway is there a way to add a time so it automatically boots a system? | 11:12 |
| jager | time to revert i guess | 11:12 |
| Coolio10 | for grub | 11:12 |
| kerian | err... wait... did you just delete the linux partitions? | 11:12 |
| kerian | if so... the actual 'booting' part of grub has been removed... so you should probably fix that before rebooting | 11:13 |
| Coolio10 | yes i did remove that and just want to know how to add a time to next time i am prepared | 11:13 |
| === cryogen12 [n=pineland@ool-43559a7d.dyn.optonline.net] has left #kubuntu [] | ||

| === aseigo_boink [n=aseigo@S0106001346471bcf.cg.shawcable.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| kerian | hmm... literally... you edit the menu.lst file in the /boot directory, (it has an entry for timeout) | 11:14 |
| kerian | then rebuild grub using grub-install | 11:15 |
| Coolio10 | wheres grub install? | 11:15 |
| Coolio10 | im nearly prepared to do it again | 11:16 |
| === kerian hunts around for a moment to check if kubuntu has a more friendly interface to it | ||
| Coolio10 | also is the hostname necessary and if i left it as default would it ask me for login or password before kubuntu launches? | 11:16 |
| kerian | yeah... it's set to ask you for username/password on launch | 11:17 |
| Coolio10 | is there a way to stop this? | 11:17 |
| kerian | you can turn that off in the Users & Groups dialog under system settings though | 11:17 |
| Coolio10 | i wont get to system settings because i dont know the login or pass | 11:17 |
| kerian | err... how did you install without typing those in? | 11:18 |
| kerian | somewhere in the install process... it asks you to set a password | 11:18 |

| kerian | yup | 11:20 |

| arlington | that was the part i forgot | 11:23 |
| kerian | if you have the menu.lst configured properly in /boot/grub... it should just install | 11:24 |
| arlington | where do I go to grab it then? | 11:24 |

| mrj | i have installed a NVIDIA Driver | 11:28 |
| mrj | with apt-get | 11:28 |
| mrj | but | 11:28 |
| mrj | i can not see much performance | 11:28 |
| mrj | i have tested the Nvidia-xxx.run package from their site with SLACKWARE and it works excellent | 11:28 |
| mrj | but in kubuntu after the installationj of the drivers i get no difference | 11:29 |
| mrj | PLEASE HELP ? | 11:29 |
| kerian | hmm... obvious first question... are you using the nvidia driver? | 11:29 |
| mrj | i am using this http://ubuntuguide.org/#installnvidiadriver | 11:29 |
| Coolio10 | kerian do you know why when i typed the password would not be written because i could type the login | 11:30 |
| kerian | are you sure that it wasn't just not showing you what you typed? | 11:30 |
| kerian | various utilities do that, to protect you from people watching over your shoulder | 11:30 |
| Coolio10 | im sure because after i typed the password it just made another space to type and i typed in that and it said login.password incorrect | 11:31 |
| mrj | kerian: is that correct what i have used ? | 11:31 |
| Coolio10 | also is it possible to cahnge the default system booted for grub? | 11:31 |
| arlington | probably a ridiculous question but anyone know where I can go to refind my password irc username? | 11:31 |
| === jager [n=jag@user-12l2ugq.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| mrj | kerian: the strange thing was that after i followed the instructions there was no /usr/share/applications/NVIDIA-Settings.desktop | 11:32 |
| kerian | yeah... the default can be changed in the menu.lst too | 11:32 |
| kerian | I dont remember exactly how though | 11:32 |
| jager | man, i wish i know wtf is going on here | 11:32 |
| Coolio10 | ok thanks | 11:32 |
| jager | now my screensavers work good even though i unduid all the changes i made, and projectm won't work at all | 11:32 |
| Coolio10 | ill try kubuntu install again and see if it lets me install | 11:32 |
| mrj | kerian: and i just copied the file from the example of the site | 11:32 |
| Coolio10 | would it do anything to my system if i left the hostname as ubuntu? | 11:33 |

| u19809 | anybody here use a ati card with a fglrx driver ? | 11:33 |
| Coolio10 | i will have windows and kubuntu on my comouter | 11:33 |
