I just though it would be something that can be done through IDE [03:58] well, you can change the location of that Autostart folder if you want, to make it easier to get to [03:58] ahhh excellent [03:59] that's pretty simple === ccc_ [n=ccc@c-b90f70d5.015-28-6c6b7010.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #kubuntu [04:00] troy: :) It's not that I can't do this, I just wanted to know if there is IDE-way [04:00] not really no - no "Start Up" folder in the start menu, if that's what you want -- or msconfig equivalent [04:01] troy: BTW, how do I "save" a session (in session manager there are 3 settings- start new, restore previous and restore saved)?

It is kcontrol, right? [04:07] troy: ahhh, never mind, found it [04:08] system settings is a kubuntu kcontrol replacement, however 'kcontrol' still exists, and I use it regularly [04:08] system settings has the most common settings in it [04:09] I'm not actually convinced that the interface to System Settings is any better than kcontrol - if anything, it seems like a poorly implemented version of MacOSX's settings [04:09] troy: I see. Thank you sir. I will try to make it work... [04:10] troy: I like kcontrol better actually.

[07:43] few hundred meg [07:44] 300 or so i would expect [07:44] 525 [07:44] unpacked [07:44] so it must be 300 download . ta :) [07:45] why does that seem like a lot? [07:45] 107mb of archives [07:45] cos it is a lot? [07:45] ISO's only 700mb or so... [07:45] the biggest thing in kde is the translations by far -- the rest isn't that large I don't think [07:45] but there's lots of KDE [07:46] true === nekostar [n=nekostar@unaffiliated/starscalling] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] === troy recalls kde 1.0 and the few MB it took :P [07:46] lol [07:46] 400m without the recomended stuff [07:46] lol === Kamping_Kaiser doesnt [07:47] I had to install it on redhat 5, and I had a hell of a time getting my video card to display more than 16 colours :P === troy kicks redhat 5 for being stupid [07:48] i have a RH 5.2 cd somewhere *was going to play with it* [07:49] wonder what's in Woody [07:49] *has a Woody box* === Hobbsee manually syncs /home folders [07:49] 5.0 used a non-standard compiler, which broke compatibility with everything, including earlier and later redhat releases, and my video card only had binary drivers, so I struggled for an age to get it installed [07:49] i cant get x to start though :( [07:49] when has Red Hat ever used a standard compiler :| [07:49] drat! syncing them the wrong way! [07:49] it didn't use gcc for that release [07:49] they still use 2.9blah [07:49] Hobbsee: :( [07:49] oh [07:50] ok, should i have a ~/mozilla/ folder? [07:51] they used egcs, a fork of gcc that left it incompatible -- sigh [07:51] from a default firefox install? [07:51] troy: :( [07:51] Hobbsee: i think so [07:51] can you check? [07:51] i have one === Hobbsee thinks it came in when she tried compiling firefox [07:51] i have firefox and thunderbird [07:51] a /mozilla/ or a /.mozilla/? [07:51] looks like it's a firefox thing [07:51] .mozilla === Darkkish_Box [n=kirby@c-67-171-16-255.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu === Darkkish_Box [n=kirby@c-67-171-16-255.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has left #kubuntu [] === Kamping_Kaiser will give up on booting usb stick, and will just mount it into the cd [07:54] right [07:54] yeah, i have a folder called mozilla, which i think i copied over from a breezy install [07:54] (which means i have to hack the cd so it mounts the usb doover as /home) [07:54] oh ok === ggilbert [n=ggilbert@69-175-35-85.ventca.adelphia.net] has joined #kubuntu === Hobbsee thinks she can safely delete the log files, having got the ones she needs on the correct partition [07:55] i hope! [07:55] :| [07:58] i think! [07:58] sheesh this is confusing lol! [07:59] wait untill your using stuff symlinked off nfs mounted directories ;) [07:59] eek! === Hobbsee just hopes she wont have problems with dcop server stuff... [08:00] ew. yeh === freeflying_ [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.28] has joined #kubuntu [08:04] why are you syncing stuff? === Arsenal [i=BEER@ip68-224-138-239.lv.lv.cox.net] has joined #kubuntu === MassiveBurger [n=chatzill@ppp-67-39-179-12.dsl.emhril.ameritech.net] has joined #kubuntu [08:05] because i've got a whole heap of files on breezy home, and more on dapper home, and trying to figure out what is where is getting confusing! [08:05] heh [08:05] share your docs, but the rest is a bit edgy === Kamping_Kaiser hopes (k)ubuntu express works better then puppies install script :| [08:09] lol [08:10] well, i've copied from one to another without a problem, as long as i remove the dcop and ice authority files... [08:10] hm interesting [08:11] how to rip dvd in kde [08:12] dvd::rip, or dvdbackup are good (latter is cli) [08:15] what start up scripts should i add that "echo 1024 .." mplayer line to? [08:16] can-o-worms: /etc/sysctl.conf . Read the syntax there, and you'll see what to do. [08:16] crimsun: thanks [08:17] Hey guys, can anyone get DirectIM to work in GAIM?? [08:17] Is it better to install ubuntu then kubuntu-desktop or can I just install kubuntu? [08:17] if you Install ubuntu, then make sure you do a server install [08:18] And then youll end up with the same thing as kubuntu [08:18] Arsenal: ^^ Thats to you ^^ === Kamping_Kaiser successfully hs puppy installed :D [08:19] I don't ever use gnome, just KDE & fluxbox. Should I bother installing ubuntu? [08:19] Just install kubuntu if you dont want to use gnome [08:19] Then it will automaticly set you up with KDE, and you dont have to deal with the command line's kuubntu-desktop [08:21] Can anyone help me? Please?? [08:22] sorry, no (havent tried) [08:23] what is it? [08:23] ?? [08:23] ??[x] : Usage: ?? [> nick] [08:23] what? [08:23] lol wtf [08:23] ...

[08:24] Hobbsee: Yes, but the tgz doesn't work correctly, and the deb just opens up [08:24] it doesn't save [08:25] I tried "Right click, save as" but then that just saves me some BS file called "linker.js" [08:25] what are you trying to save it in? [08:25] mozilla.. [08:25] if thats what you mean [08:25] try copy link location, then wget it [08:25] get the link of the deb, then use wget -c link [08:26] nice work Kamping_Kaiser :P [08:26] ;) [08:26] ill try [08:26] great mines think alike ;P [08:26] definetly [08:26] then maybe i should get you to tell me what to do with the spare space, and lack of it [08:26] ok. what's wrong? [08:27] So I should use wget -c linker.jp?? [08:27] Snake__: link to the page with the deb on it is what? [08:27] Snake__: no, wget -c http://blah.deb [08:27] Also, theres a version for "Debain 2.1" and "Debain 3+" [08:27] what is kubuntu?
