| kalenedrael | Yes, sort of. | 04:56 |
| Elessar86 | ah, | 04:56 |
| Elessar86 | i jsut set up a partition and downloaded kubuntu | 04:56 |
| kalenedrael | Ok. | 04:56 |
| Elessar86 | now...i want to set up a dual boot | 04:56 |
| Elessar86 | is that all on the download? | 04:56 |
| Elessar86 | as options or something? | 04:56 |
| kalenedrael | Ok, (k)ubuntu should do that automatically. You do still have the other OS, right? | 04:56 |
| crimsun | that's not difficult; the installer does that for you. | 04:56 |
| Elessar86 | yeah | 04:56 |
| Elessar86 | im on it now :) | 04:56 |
| crimsun | you didn't even have to repartition prior | 04:56 |
| kalenedrael | Ok. | 04:57 |
| Elessar86 | well, can i use the partition i have? | 04:57 |
| crimsun | just choose the guided partitioning option | 04:57 |
| Elessar86 | *that i jsut made | 04:57 |
| Elessar86 | i'd rather use the partition i just made, is that ok? | 04:57 |
| Elessar86 | or do i have t use the guide? | 04:57 |
| kalenedrael | You do in some cases, I believe. I had to manually partition before setting up kubuntu and Windows XP dual-boot. | 04:57 |
| Elessar86 | well, i have the partition then, so lets hope that works, so just pop the disc in and install | 04:58 |
| Elessar86 | ? | 04:58 |
| Elessar86 | how long does it take on avg? | 04:58 |
| Elessar86 | that long eh... :P | 04:59 |
| kalenedrael | It takes a while. You're installing an entire OS :P | 05:00 |
| Elessar86 | so like, 30 minutes, 45, 5 hours? | 05:00 |
| kalenedrael | Depends heavily on the computer and the HD speed :P | 05:00 |

| Drakeson | matt_ what kernel? | 05:13 |

| Drakeson | I am on 2.6.15 now | 05:14 |

| kalenedrael | I'm using a patched 2.6.13 (for cardbus support) | 05:14 |
| matt_ | kalenedrael: so I'll need to re-change the menu.lst before rebooting after an upgrade? | 05:14 |
| kalenedrael | You should do that, yes... | 05:15 |
| kalenedrael | I assume you know how to edit that file. | 05:15 |

| kalenedrael | Well, in any case, I know where all the files go and I can purge a kernel entirely if need be, so :P | 05:16 |
| matt_ | and if I want to use my scanner usblp and usb_storage need to be built in or I have to rmmod them every time I want to scan and insmod them when I want to print again. | 05:17 |
| kalenedrael | I would recommend against building those in. | 05:18 |
| matt_ | why? | 05:18 |
| === ubcbill [n=ubcbill@sr-188.srtb05.resnet.ubc.ca] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| kalenedrael | They're... not meant to be... | 05:19 |
| kalenedrael | It's like building the sound modules in or something, people just don't do it. | 05:20 |
| matt_ | I must say this is the first I've heard of that | 05:20 |
| kalenedrael | Really? | 05:20 |

| === khris [n=khris@ool-182e178c.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| matt_ | I've always tried to build as much into the kernel as I can... | 05:20 |
| khris | how do you launch katapult | 05:20 |
| jsubl2 | i am still waiting for a real reason not to build them in.. | 05:20 |
| kalenedrael | I must say it's the first time I heard of people doing what you did :P | 05:20 |
| matt_ | well I did it because every time I tried to use the scanner on my epson multi-function it said that usblp had controll of the USB port but when I removed the module it worked fine. I built usblp and usb_storage into the kernel and the problem was gone. | 05:22 |
| jsubl2 | sounds like a valid reason to build then in | 05:23 |
| kalenedrael | Ok, like I said, I've never heard of anyone building them in, but apparently you guys do, so sure. | 05:23 |
| Shadyman | anyone here got wpa_supplicant working before? | 05:24 |
| matt_ | jsubl2: you build stuff like that in too? | 05:24 |
| jsubl2 | yeah not lately. we really don't use the scanner portion except as a copier.. I will definetly make note of your fix.. | 05:25 |
| jsubl2 | but, streamlined hand built kernel normaly will make things faster especially on boot up.. it is just tough to include everything needed | 05:25 |
| matt_ | jsubl2: I think it was because it was using libusb and the scanner module had been taken out of the kernel. | 05:26 |
| jsubl2 | i have seen that here.. i thought the later hpoj stuff was suppose to fix that. have not kept up with it tho | 05:26 |
| matt_ | isn't that just for hp hardware? | 05:27 |
| jsubl2 | yeah but epson emulates that does it not.. | 05:27 |
| matt_ | no idea. I just used the cx4800 drivers in cups and it worked great | 05:27 |
| matt_ | that was in Debian Testing and I'm seeing that there is no cx4800 driver in Kubuntu.... | 05:28 |
| jsubl2 | might need to get an updated ppd from linuxprinting.org | 05:28 |
| matt_ | where do those go? | 05:29 |
| jsubl2 | well you will need to look.. i am in freebsd at the moment.. my guess would be close to /usr/share/cups search for *.ppd files in that area | 05:30 |
| matt_ | this is odd, they don't even list the cx4800 on linuxprinting.org but I know it was an option in Debian... | 05:34 |
| Shadyman | matt_: It might have been the CX4600. | 05:34 |
| Shadyman | matt_: The 4800 is new as of 2 months ago. | 05:34 |
| Shadyman | Though, it is a great printer either way ;) | 05:35 |
| === Shadyman is an Epson in-store printer rep :P | ||
| matt_ | no, i know it was the 4800. I had to update cups in order for it to be an option. | 05:36 |

| jsubl2 | matt_, yeah you might need to build that from source | 05:36 |
| jsubl2 | the cups.. | 05:36 |
| Shadyman | matt_: Usually cups | 05:36 |
| Shadyman | matt_: And if you find a driver for CX4200, it should work as well | 05:37 |
| matt_ | I know that, but I have a list of about 50 printers and none of the 4xxx series is listed | 05:37 |

| Elessar86 | anyone still here | 05:46 |
| Shadyman | No. | 05:46 |
| Elessar86 | lol | 05:46 |
| Elessar86 | how do i combine partitions | 05:46 |
| Elessar86 | i just made one for linux, but when i go to install, it doesnt allow me to use the partition i made, or i dunno how to tell it to use it | 05:47 |
| Shadyman | once you select the partition, you have to assign it a mount point | 05:47 |
| Shadyman | so, if it's a linux partition, make it "/" | 05:47 |
| Elessar86 | how do i do that | 05:47 |
| Elessar86 | i have 2 partitions | 05:48 |
| Shadyman | Are you using the install CD? | 05:48 |
| Elessar86 | and i can see the one i made | 05:48 |
| Elessar86 | yeah i have it on disc | 05:48 |
| Elessar86 | all i want to do is make it install on the new partition | 05:48 |
| Shadyman | When you're installing, set it to "configure my partitions manually" | 05:48 |
| Elessar86 | yeah, i did that | 05:48 |
| Elessar86 | and it shows both partitions | 05:48 |
| Shadyman | and then go over the one you set for linux, and hit Enter | 05:49 |
| Elessar86 | bah, mandrake was so much easier | 05:49 |
| Shadyman | Elessar86: So was fedora. | 05:49 |
| Elessar86 | yeah | 05:49 |
| Elessar86 | i didnt like mandrake though | 05:49 |
| Shadyman | Once you do that, change "Mount Point" to "/" or "root" | 05:49 |
| Shadyman | whichever it shows. | 05:49 |
| Elessar86 | ok | 05:49 |
| Elessar86 | well, where do i change the mount point | 05:49 |
| Shadyman | you should be able to select the partitions with the cursor? | 05:50 |
| Elessar86 | jsut arrow keys | 05:50 |
| Shadyman | well, yeah. | 05:50 |
| Shadyman | you should be able to select the partitions with the arrow keys? | 05:50 |
| Elessar86 | yeah | 05:50 |
| Shadyman | select the linux one and hit Enter | 05:50 |
| Elessar86 | yeah | 05:50 |
| Elessar86 | and thne i see like bootable flag | 05:50 |
| Shadyman | then it gives you some options | 05:50 |
| Elessar86 | i changed that and made the mistake :P | 05:50 |
| Shadyman | hehe | 05:51 |
| Shadyman | what options it give you? | 05:51 |
| Elessar86 | so i jsut changed it back to the main partition and im in safe mode with network | 05:51 |

| Elessar86 | almost cried bc i though ti lost everything | 05:51 |
| Shadyman | Heh | 05:51 |
| Elessar86 | the thing for the linux was...something like hda/... | 05:51 |
| Elessar86 | cant remember... | 05:52 |
| Elessar86 | bah | 05:52 |
| Shadyman | /dev/hda1? | 05:52 |
| Elessar86 | no | 05:52 |
| Elessar86 | ide/hda5 | 05:52 |
| Shadyman | ok | 05:52 |
| Elessar86 | my main (C:) one is hda1 | 05:52 |
| Shadyman | ok | 05:53 |
| Elessar86 | i want it to use the hda5 (linux partition i made) | 05:53 |
| Elessar86 | sry, im not good wit hthis stuff | 05:53 |
| Shadyman | Ok, so when you go in to edit manually, it'll show you the different partitions | 05:53 |
| Shadyman | you select the linux one by highlighting it and hitting enter | 05:53 |
| Elessar86 | i can supposedly install a new OS with PM 8... | 05:53 |
| Shadyman | Doubtful. | 05:53 |
| Elessar86 | ok | 05:53 |
| Elessar86 | but yeah, i select linux part. and then what | 05:54 |
| Shadyman | then you set hda5 to "format" and make it ext3 | 05:54 |
| Shadyman | and set its mount point to "/" | 05:54 |
| Elessar86 | ok... | 05:54 |
| Shadyman | then you should be OK. | 05:54 |
| Elessar86 | lol | 05:54 |
| Elessar86 | well, i'll try this again... | 05:54 |
| Shadyman | the rest of your drives it'll want to map to /media/hda1, /media/hda2, etc. | 05:54 |
| Elessar86 | so i want to format hda5 | 05:54 |
| Shadyman | tat's ok | 05:54 |
| Shadyman | it'll format hda5 in the installer | 05:54 |
| Elessar86 | ok, i jsut dont want to deleted my c: or anything on it | 05:55 |
| Shadyman | yeah | 05:55 |
| Shadyman | it'll have smiley faces beside drives that aren't going to be touched | 05:55 |
| Elessar86 | and after it formats, make it ext3 | 05:55 |
| Elessar86 | then mount is / | 05:55 |
| Shadyman | and a skull and crossbones beside ones that are | 05:55 |
| Shadyman | those settings should all be in the menu, you do it all at once, then confirm, and it sets everything up | 05:55 |
| matt_ | is it a good idea to use debian packages with kubuntu? | 05:55 |
| Elessar86 | well, when the partitions come up, it shows a smile next to both partitions | 05:55 |
| Elessar86 | so i want the skull and bones next to the linux one? | 05:56 |
| Shadyman | Elessar86: Yes. | 05:56 |
| Elessar86 | k | 05:56 |
| Elessar86 | thats good to know :) | 05:56 |
| Elessar86 | i was thinking the opposite | 05:56 |
| Elessar86 | well as long as my C: has a smile im happy ;) | 05:56 |
| Shadyman | go "enter" on the linux one, and set it from "keep partition contents" to "format" or something like that | 05:56 |
| Elessar86 | gonna try to install, | 05:56 |

| crimsun | I dist-upgraded from Warty | 06:21 |
| crimsun | Warty->Hoary->Breezy->Dapper | 06:21 |
| matt_ | so all you need to do is change breezy to dapper in sources file? | 06:21 |
| crimsun | yes | 06:21 |
| matt_ | any major problems with dapper that you've noticed? | 06:22 |
| crimsun | be aware that we have no qualms about breaking things in Dapper. | 06:22 |

| Elessar86 | im trying to install righ tnow...seems to be going, 6% so far, but how do i make a swap space? | 06:22 |
| Elessar86 | could i do tha tlater in PM 8 or no? | 06:22 |
| Elessar86 | 32%.... | 06:23 |
| Elessar86 | so far so good | 06:23 |
| matt_ | elessar86: you should have done that during the partitioning | 06:23 |
| Elessar86 | eh, little late now... | 06:23 |
| Elessar86 | if the instal fails...which i hop it doesnt, how would i make a swap space> | 06:23 |
| Elessar86 | im thinking 500 mb to like 1 gb | 06:23 |
| Elessar86 | i can spare 1 gb if i have to | 06:23 |
| matt_ | crimsun: can I use pieces of dapper with breezy? | 06:23 |
| crimsun | not recommended | 06:24 |
| Elessar86 | 48% | 06:24 |
| crimsun | we've already transitioned twice in Dapper with potentially disastrous effects for a mixed system | 06:24 |
| Elessar86 | should it install, would it have had a problem by now? | 06:24 |
| Elessar86 | im up to 50% and no problems yet | 06:24 |
| matt_ | I need the cups version used in dapper but it then wants to upgrade a few other things | 06:25 |
| Elessar86 | 67% | 06:25 |
| Elessar86 | seem slike i made it past any swap space problems | 06:25 |

| seth_k|lappy | change it to whatever # XP is | 09:12 |
| seth_k|lappy | the first entry is 0 | 09:12 |
| seth_k|lappy | so if Windows XP is the 4th entry in the boot list, change Default to 3 | 09:12 |

| seth_k|lappy | or http://wiki.kubuntu.org if you prefer blue (they're the same wiki, with a different theme) | 09:16 |
| seth_k|lappy | and don't use any repositories except ones sanctioned by Ubuntu for best results | 09:16 |
| seth_k|lappy | and don't use the program "Automatix" | 09:16 |
| seth_k|lappy | it breaks systems | 09:16 |
| Elessar86 | ok... | 09:17 |
| seth_k|lappy | other than that, (k)ubuntu is hard to break. it's a good distro :) | 09:17 |

| N6REJ | any others she shoudl be added to? | 10:38 |

| === duskbot [i=mornfall@r31s01p04.home.nbox.cz] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| N6REJ | uh... I think the gigafast is both a switch and a router... it does Nat/firewall, port routing, ip tables, has 4 ports and then there is a wireless switch ( belkin :S ) .. | 10:56 |
| N6REJ | that is acting as a wireless acess point for some of the workstations. | 10:56 |
| tid-wave | well then make sure UDP packets are routed | 10:56 |
| N6REJ | tid-wave: even though I don't want them OUTSIDE the lan?? all the machines are nat'd to the 192.168.123.x Class C | 10:57 |
| tid-wave | that could be a problem | 10:58 |
| tid-wave | you NAT only for external connections | 10:58 |
| N6REJ | the router provides the dhcp | 10:58 |
| N6REJ | dhcp pool that is. | 10:58 |
| tid-wave | there has to be a way to configure it | 10:59 |
| tid-wave | make sure that internal connections are not address translated | 10:59 |
| N6REJ | yeah, I'm sure there is. the site doesn't provide docs. | 11:00 |
| tid-wave | try http://192.168.100.1 | 11:00 |

| Patry | how can I change manually my host name/domain name without using the kde panel? | 07:41 |
| douglas | Hello, I can't get my printer to work. It works when I add a printer and do the test page but not in any other way. Noob. HELP!! | 07:41 |
| kalenedrael | Change it in /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname. | 07:42 |
| kkathman | Patry at a konsole yu can try sudo dhclient eth0 | 07:42 |
| sampan | kkathman it was indeed -- wife and i stayed home and celebrated "quietly" :X and yours? | 07:42 |
| rev | Spudchat: it's called artsd but there is no init script, restart it through KDE -> System Settings -> Sound & Multimedia | 07:42 |
| Patry | and what is it going to do? | 07:42 |
| kkathman | douglas: do your applications point to the appropriate printer? | 07:42 |
| Spudchat | thanks a bunch :) problem is fixed | 07:43 |
| douglas | how do you tell? | 07:43 |
| douglas | lets start with firefox | 07:43 |
| kkathman | douglas: when you open an app, go to the Print preview and check to see that the printer you installed is set as default for that app | 07:44 |
| Patry | woah it worked! | 07:44 |
| Patry | Internet is working now with the dhclient eth0! | 07:44 |
| kkathman | ok, douglas... go to File / Print... that should bring up a panel to check the default printer | 07:45 |
| Spudchat | once again thanks for helpin me guys...have a happy new year | 07:45 |

| kkathman | douglas: now you need to click that to make it the default, if it wasnt already the one that was showing | 07:46 |

| rev | Patry: maybe you want this in your /etc/network/interfaces http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6460 - open it with your favorite text editor, delete everything after you made a backup and paste it in | 07:48 |
| kkathman | Patry: did you ever paste your sources.list? | 07:48 |
| Shadyman | visik7: Of course it doesn't crash now, when i run it from console. *eyeroll* | 07:48 |
| Patry | how come sudo dhclient eth0 worked? | 07:48 |
| Patry | is it temporary or something? | 07:49 |
| douglas | I only have one printer. I don't see a way in firefox to make it the default but it is the one listeded and in configure kde modual it is the default with cups | 07:49 |
| kkathman | Patry: its a direct CLI command | 07:49 |
| Patry | what is CLI? | 07:49 |
| jpatrick | Patry: command line | 07:49 |
| kkathman | douglas: so when you bring up that window in Firefox, it has cups/yourprinter in that box? | 07:49 |

| kkathman | Patry dhclient also enables the eth0 | 07:50 |
| kkathman | it might have been disabled for some reason | 07:50 |
| kkathman | but you have a more serious issue if you cant update | 07:50 |
| jpatrick | kkathman: no "auto eth0" in /etc/network/interfaces ? | 07:50 |
| rev | Patry: with kkathman command your pc asked your router for an IP and the correct gatewayaddress, nothing else has to be done, if you want this automatically at bootup do what I wrote a few lines above | 07:51 |
| kkathman | rev is right | 07:51 |
| Patry | ok wait | 07:51 |
| Shadyman | How should I configure WPA_Supplicant in init.d so it loads correctly on boot? Right now it just sits at "Configuring Network Interface" and "waiting for network interface to come up" for 5 minutes. | 07:51 |
| kkathman | jpatrick: quite possibly, but running dhclient should have fixed that I reckon | 07:51 |
| douglas | all it lists is the printer name that I gave the printer on install. | 07:52 |
| Patry | I'll boot just to see if I have to delete my /interfaces and paste what you asked | 07:52 |

| kkathman | douglas: does it not precede it with "cups" ? | 07:54 |
| douglas | no | 07:54 |
| kkathman | hmm | 07:54 |
| douglas | I think cups maybe broken somehow | 07:54 |
| kkathman | douglas is your printer like on a windows machine and youre sharing it? | 07:54 |
| _tobias | Is there any Qt app like Synaptic.? I just don't like "Adept"... | 07:54 |
| douglas | no it is on a home desktop and I am not sharing it. | 07:54 |
| kkathman | _tobias: synaptic still works fine as does kynaptic if you are so inclined | 07:55 |
| _tobias | Or can I make Synaptic look more Qtish.? | 07:55 |
| jpatrick | _tobias: why not? | 07:55 |
| kkathman | douglas: ahh hmm, why cups then? | 07:55 |
| _tobias | kkathman: I will try kynaptic... | 07:55 |
| Patry | it worked rev, does it mean I don't have to copy/paste this thing you told me in my /etc/network/interfaces? | 07:55 |
| kkathman | I use cups, douglas but only because my printer is hooked to my winbox and i share it on my network | 07:56 |
| _tobias | jpatrick: well, I'm used to synaptic. I like the feeling of it more than Adept. | 07:56 |

| rev | Party: yes, probably ... I should have worked the first time too though | 07:56 |
| Patry | now what about my sources.list? | 07:57 |
| douglas | well because I tried it with LPR and it did not work so I tried it with cups hoping that maybe it needed it. I am new to all this so I just tried it out that way. | 07:57 |
| douglas | could cups be in the way of LPR? | 07:57 |
| kkathman | Patry did you paste that in the paste.ubuntu-nl.com ? | 07:57 |
| kkathman | douglas: typically on your linux system, cups wouldnt necessarily be needed if your printer is attached directly to your box | 07:58 |
| douglas | makes sense | 07:58 |
| douglas | I will get rid of it then. | 07:58 |
| Patry | nope but why would you want that? | 07:58 |
| SpentCasing | has anyone tried to setup i wireless card here, im confused | 07:59 |
| kkathman | Patry: what I suspect, is that you have some repositories disabled...you can just check them if you want | 07:59 |
| Patry | to fix what exactly? | 07:59 |

| murph2481 | any suggestions on getting firefox installed? | 10:04 |
| murph2481 | stable version 1.5 | 10:04 |
| Blissex | murph2481: 'tar x' it in '/usr/local/firefox15' for example? | 10:04 |
| murph2481 | well yes that will unzip it to a directory | 10:05 |
| murph2481 | but how do i get it to the menu and such? | 10:05 |
| Blissex | murph2481: well, easiest thing is to just drag-and-drop it to the desktop. | 10:05 |
| Blissex | murph2481: that will create a symlink. | 10:05 |
| Blissex | murph2481: else just right click on the K Menu and select 'Menu editor' and add a new menu entry. | 10:06 |

| Blissex | murph2481: where did you untar it to? | 10:12 |

| murph2481 | "/home" | 10:12 |
| Blissex | murph2481: a bit lame, the tradition is to 'untar' to '/usr/local' | 10:12 |
| murph2481 | i do not have permissions... | 10:12 |
| Blissex | murph2481: but it would be something like 'sh /home/firefox/firefox' for example | 10:13 |
| murph2481 | Blisse: alright how do i specify where to untar? | 10:13 |
| xtacocorex | LiGhTeNiN: are you adding your network card when you run dhclient? | 10:14 |

| Stormx2 | Right, I'm off to try kubuntu. One last question, will all the apps get added to the GNOME menu? | 11:41 |
| Tm_T | you mean KDE? | 11:41 |
| Stormx2 | KDE apps, yeah. | 11:41 |
| Tm_T | yu | 11:41 |
| LiGhTeNiN | can someone help me set up a connection with router under kubuntu? | 11:42 |
| Chousuke | Stormx2: are you on ubuntu now? you can install kubuntu on ubuntu directly. | 11:42 |
| kitsch | hey. anyone know how to configure the knotify notification boxes? i'd like to resize and move kopetes notification box to the bottom of the screen | 11:42 |
| Yon | is there a way that everytime u login console auto opens and types in a few commands? | 11:42 |
| Stormx2 | Chousuke: No, but I know you can just get kubuntu-desktop, yeah. | 11:42 |
| Chousuke | Stormx2: ok, good. :) | 11:42 |
| Stormx2 | Chousuke, nalioth, thankyou for the help | 11:42 |
| LiGhTeNiN | so, noone is going to help me set up a connection? | 11:43 |
| nalioth | LiGhTeNiN: perhaps ask in #ubuntu | 11:43 |
| Chousuke | hm | 11:43 |
| LiGhTeNiN | oh ok, i'll try | 11:43 |
| Chousuke | Can't find info on kioslaves on google ;P | 11:43 |

| === ToyMan_ [n=stuq@user-12lcqia.cable.mindspring.com] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
| Chousuke | I never managed to make it work in any sensible way :/ | 11:48 |
| Chousuke | I read all kinds of FAQs and tutorials about kinput2, UIM, skim and whatever. none of them worked in the end. | 11:48 |
| Chousuke | once I managed to make kinput2 work but then I lost the ebility to type Finnish :P | 11:49 |
| LiGhTeNiN | I know the feeling, read lots of stuff and in the end it still wont work :| | 11:50 |
| Chousuke | GNOME implements these things called input modules. I'm waiting for KDE4 to be released since it includes those too. | 11:50 |

| Stormx3 | Why, what happens when you try? | 11:51 |
| Chousuke | I hear a lot of good about KDE and would really like to give it a spin. | 11:51 |
| Chousuke | even if it's a bit heavy on RAM. | 11:51 |
| Chousuke | ;P | 11:51 |
| Milktea | I get errors | 11:52 |
| Stormx3 | pah | 11:52 |
| Stormx3 | I have 256mb ram | 11:52 |
| Stormx3 | its not great. | 11:52 |
| Milktea | last 2 lines | 11:52 |
| Milktea | Package build failed. Here's the log: | 11:52 |
| Milktea | find: fglrx_6_8_0-8.20.8: No such file or directory | 11:52 |
| Stormx3 | Milktea: its not finding the file | 11:52 |
| Milktea | There's a lot of Operation not permitted | 11:52 |
| m0ns00n | Chousuke: kde isn't so heavy on ram =) | 11:52 |
| Stormx3 | Milktea: You in the correct directory, and have entered the right filename | 11:52 |
| Chousuke | m0ns00n: It is. | 11:52 |
| Milktea | yeah | 11:53 |
| Stormx3 | How would KDE fair under 256mb ram? | 11:53 |
| Milktea | I get a lot of Operation not permitted | 11:53 |
| Milktea | then finally get that | 11:53 |
| Stormx3 | Milktea: Try sudo, then | 11:53 |
| Stormx3 | KDE is big :O | 11:53 |
| m0ns00n | Hehe | 11:53 |
| Milktea | I am using sudo >< | 11:53 |
| m0ns00n | Depends if you want to run the whole KDE or not | 11:53 |
| m0ns00n | And if you want all flashy icons | 11:53 |

| Stormx3 | heh =) | 11:54 |
| Stormx3 | I wish I had more ram | 11:54 |
| Chousuke | I hear they're trying to make KDE4 more efficient though. | 11:54 |
| Stormx3 | how much does it cost? | 11:54 |
| Stormx3 | for an extra 256mb or ram, maybe | 11:54 |
| Chousuke | RAM? depends on what RAM it is. | 11:54 |
| Milktea | Corsair RAM is nice | 11:54 |
| Chousuke | SDRAM is expensive. | 11:54 |
| Blissex | Stormx3: 256MB is just about all right. | 11:54 |
| Chousuke | non-DDR at least. :p | 11:54 |
| Chousuke | I paid 60 euros for 256 | 11:55 |
| Stormx3 | Blissex: Hmm. | 11:55 |
| Chousuke | but DDR is cheaper and faster. | 11:55 |
| Blissex | Chousuke: DDR is not necessarily faster BTW | 11:55 |
| Chousuke | what does your motherboard support? | 11:55 |
| Stormx3 | No. Idea. | 11:55 |
| Stormx3 | >_< | 11:55 |

| Chousuke | isn't it more like "nate" anyway. | 11:57 |

| Stormx3 | Milktea: Search on ubuntuforums.org | 11:58 |
| Stormx3 | OK Everyone, as a rough guide, how much does 256mb of ram cost (lowest -> highest) and how much would you spend... | 11:59 |
| Chousuke | I'm running on a 1.3GHz/1.25GB/64MB powerbook atm. | 11:59 |
| Chousuke | Stormx3: how much MHz do you have? | 11:59 |
| Blissex | Stormx3: depends on the type of RAM and the country... | 11:59 |
| Stormx3 | 1.4 | 11:59 |
| Stormx3 | UK, and, I'm not sure. i've never gone into types before. | 12:00 |
| Blissex | Stormx3: I have written a very nice KDE and UNIX performance enhancement advice page here: | 12:00 |
| Stormx3 | Ah, nice. | 12:00 |
| Blissex | Stormx3: in the UK you can get fairly cheap SDRAM from eBuyer.co.UK | 12:00 |
| Chousuke | Stormx3: Find your motherboard manual. | 12:00 |
| Stormx3 | where? I see no link | 12:00 |

| Stormx3 | I don't think I can really get hold of the manual | 12:01 |
| Stormx3 | I shall ask my dad | 12:01 |
| douglas | When is dapper slated to be released? | 12:01 |
| Blissex | Stormx3: I have an 800MHz laptop with 256MB and KDE just about runs with it. | 12:01 |
| Stormx3 | April. | 12:01 |
