leafw | can anyone point to documentation on how to mount an hfsplus partion readonly (up to here no problem) but overriding the permissions on that partition? | 12:47 |
redguy | leafw: man mount ? | 12:49 |
Steven_M | leafw: do you mean you want to write to hfs+ partition under linux? | 12:49 |
leafw | redguy: setting the gid and the uid didn't help | 12:49 |
leafw | in the fstab that is | 12:49 |
nalioth | leafw: paste your current fstab, please | 12:49 |
leafw | man mount didn't help, therefore I'm here | 12:49 |
redguy | leafw: elaborate on "didn't help" | 12:50 |
Knowerrors | Anyone know how to make firefox have the same human mouse pointer theme as the rest of the programs? | 12:50 |
debbie | how do I get KDM as my default Logon screen? | 12:50 |
nalioth | debbie: in a konsole, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm" and choose the one you want | 12:51 |
leafw | redguy: fstab entry for the macosx partition: /dev/hda4 /mnt/macosx hfsplus ro,user,uid=500,gid=501 0 0 | 12:51 |
=== vishah [n=vishah@220.226.33.179] has joined #kubuntu | ||
leafw | redguy: "didn't help" in that setting the proper uid and gid didn't help. | 12:51 |
debbie | nalioth: Reloading K Display Manager configuration...kdm not running. | 12:51 |
leafw | I umount/mount again, and still permissions are not overriden | 12:51 |
nalioth | leafw: here ya go, modify as needed #/dev/sda3 /mnt/macosx hfsplus rw,auto,umask=000 0 0 | 12:52 |
leafw | umask? let me read about that one | 12:52 |
leafw | thanks nalioth | 12:52 |
nalioth | debbie: you have "kubuntu-desktop" installed, yes? | 12:52 |
redguy | leafw: :-) and who is the owner? setting gid and uid won't change permissions, it will set the owner only | 12:52 |
leafw | redguy: right, me. | 12:52 |
debbie | let me triple check | 12:52 |
nalioth | leafw: i'd not mount hfs at all | 12:52 |
Steven_M | leafw: someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think writing to an hfs+ partition is supported by the kernel. | 12:52 |
leafw | nalioth: readonly. | 12:53 |
leafw | Steven_M: I never had any intention to write to the hfs. | 12:53 |

debbie | nalioth: yes, I have the package "kubuntu-desktop" installed | 12:53 |
leafw | nalioth: I've been mounting ro everyday for 5 months, no problem so far. | 12:53 |
nalioth | debbie: then in a konsole, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" and choose kdm | 12:54 |

leafw | sampan: yes, there's a .kext for that | 12:56 |
sampan | thanks :) that would make a dual boot mac even more attractive -- only have to store the documents on one partition | 12:56 |
leafw | in the form of a Preferences Pane | 12:56 |

nalioth | eldnar: i did not build anything. if you want a program open your console and type "apt-cache search $PROGRAM_NAME" | 12:58 |
leafw | nalioth: the umask setitng in the fstab didn't help in letting a user navigate "root" macosx folders. | 12:58 |
nalioth | eldnar: or visit packages.ubuntu.com | 12:58 |
nalioth | leafw: you have no business in 'root' OSX folders | 12:59 |
leafw | nalioth: true, but I do in my own home dirs, which are 700 | 12:59 |
nalioth | leafw: that new setting should have let you in | 12:59 |

leafw | nalioth: in 'ro', I'm using. | 12:59 |
nalioth | leafw: it should make no difference RO or RW | 01:00 |
leafw | nalioth: neither the proper gid= and uid= help either | 01:00 |
leafw | I just don't get it, the man mount is wrong or the behavior has changed. | 01:01 |
nalioth | leafw: that line i pasted you, worked fine for me | 01:01 |
=== debbie [n=debbie@blk-224-251-101.eastlink.ca] has joined #kubuntu | ||

nalioth | debbie: np, share the love (help someone else) | 01:02 |
debbie | :) | 01:02 |
debbie | gotta go now, take care | 01:02 |
leafw | nalioth: what about this one: how to stop the sudo command from cding to the root home dir, and staying where the user is. | 01:02 |
leafw | nalioth: again the man sudo didn't help. | 01:02 |
nalioth | leafw: i have no clue, i always "sudo $COMMAND" | 01:02 |
leafw | nalioth: well, I use sudo where fstab fails. | 01:03 |
leafw | nalioth: but then that inconvenience. | 01:03 |
leafw | by the way any news on the KDE 3.5 for powerpc? Any official release yet ? | 01:05 |
nalioth | leafw: there was a guy working on packages (had the whole repo up for ppc) but they disappeared offline about 3 days ago | 01:06 |
leafw | nalioth: I saw it, but I didn't want to get them -not official. | 01:06 |
nalioth | leafw: kde 3.5 is not official for anyone in ubuntu land | 01:06 |

nalioth | sorry, leafw | 01:07 |
leafw | ? | 01:08 |
nalioth | the kubuntu.org packages are the same quality as official repos, but they are not official | 01:08 |
leafw | at least they are released by the guys who make the CDs. That's all I meant. | 01:08 |

Psi-Jack | fridge: you use the radeon driver, instead of ati? | 03:02 |
fridge | yeah, but that problem is particular to my configuration | 03:02 |

Psi-Jack | Hmm.. I have another system running with an ATI Radeon AiW 8500 DV, and I was suggested to use the fglrx driver. | 03:03 |
fridge | Psi-Jack: less broken in comparison -- I've not had any issues really | 03:03 |
nalioth | Psi-Jack: we dont have sarge, sid, etch or other, we have a release and a developement version. we release every 6 months | 03:05 |

sebastian | fridge: how do i fix it? | 03:07 |
Psi-Jack | nalioth: Yes, but I did read, Ubuntu does use the sid name for the development version. :p | 03:07 |
Hobbsee | Psi-Jack: where'd you read that? it doesnt use sid at all, anywhere that i've seen | 03:08 |
Psi-Jack | But, for me to dist-upgrade to dapper, would also potentially break the other repos I use. | 03:08 |
nalioth | Psi-Jack: we do? i thought we called it dapper | 03:08 |
Hobbsee | the most it occasoinally uses is "unstable" which it shouldnt | 03:08 |

Psi-Jack | smacky_wolf: Yes, yuou could. | 04:44 |
_lapducky | then if GRUB is happy, you just delete any old kernel images you don't want later. They only burn up aobut 20-56MB each | 04:44 |
smacky_wolf | Jack: Ok, thanks. | 04:44 |
Psi-Jack | _lapducky: 20-56? | 04:44 |
smacky_wolf | Yay for linux on lappys! | 04:45 |
_lapducky | that's what I see per image | 04:45 |
Psi-Jack | Shoot, I have 3 kernel images, plus memtest86, and still only use 23mb. | 04:45 |
_lapducky | uhhh, I don't think memtest even uses initrd or vmlinuz | 04:46 |
Psi-Jack | Nope. | 04:47 |
Psi-Jack | That's why I specifically excluded it to itself, in that list. :p | 04:47 |
_lapducky | I think it hides in the second sector of (hd0) | 04:47 |
Psi-Jack | My /boot only has 23MB in it. | 04:47 |
Psi-Jack | Hides? No, grub can use it as an image. | 04:48 |

Psi-Jack | firestarter used to be a wrapper. | 04:55 |
smacky_wolf | Yay! Made mp3 work again. | 04:55 |
sampan | _lapducky i think it is just a gui frontend for iptables. it comes up at boot time, sets my iptables and then exits. | 04:55 |

_lapducky | sampan -- go look at their website -- they're claiming more | 04:56 |

nalioth | sebastian: you need to read what ubotu sent you and enable universe and multiverse | 06:43 |
Psi-Jack | System Settings, System Services, (Administrator Mode), find hdparm in the list, and mark it to Start during booot. | 06:43 |
Psi-Jack | sebastian: That, and you need to pay attention. :p | 06:44 |
Psi-Jack | I'm not going to continue to try to help you if you don't pay attention and actually follow directions, sebastian . | 06:44 |
sebastian | lol | 06:44 |
sebastian | ok | 06:44 |
sebastian | you sound quite annoyed | 06:44 |
Psi-Jack | I don't like repeating myself. 3 times, especially. | 06:45 |

sebastian | humans learn by repetition | 06:46 |
sebastian | now if there was a kubuntu book | 06:46 |
_kevin | using adept, i do not see make-jpkg as an option. I enabled the metaverse, universe repositories. | 06:47 |

_kevin | arg, fc4 was so much easier | 07:01 |
sebastian | ok i am rading the instructions and it stopped making sense | 07:01 |
sebastian | From there, enable the Universe repository and the Universe source repository. The "Universe" is the repository that has "universe" listed under the Components column | 07:01 |

sampan | doesn't really matter either way. some of us have them enabled, others don't -- not a huge difference yet. | 07:03 |
Psi-Jack | For a newbie such as yourself, I suggest against the backports. | 07:03 |
sebastian | sure dude | 07:04 |
sebastian | ok | 07:04 |
sebastian | is there some saving to this? like to i have to press enter somewhere | 07:04 |
sampan | and after that's done, then go back and add "multiverse" (under "compenent" columns) to each of those lines. | 07:04 |
Psi-Jack | sebastian: Apply button. | 07:04 |
Psi-Jack | Yes, and the multiverse. :) | 07:04 |
sampan | otherwise we'll be doing this all again in a day or so ;) | 07:05 |
sebastian | how do you mean add multiverse | 07:05 |
sebastian | i go to the lines i enabled | 07:05 |
yellowdart | basically if you want to add multiverse, double-click the word 'universe' for each and type it in manually | 07:05 |
sebastian | and then i sort of | 07:05 |
sebastian | ok so i turn the universes | 07:05 |
sebastian | into multiverses | 07:05 |
Psi-Jack | No. | 07:05 |
sebastian | aye? | 07:05 |
Psi-Jack | You add multiverse TO it. | 07:05 |

_kevin | How do I get make-jpkg? | 07:08 |
sebastian | nalioth: | 07:09 |
sebastian | sebastian: if you are comfortable with a command line, irssi is (imho) the best irc clien | 07:09 |
sebastian | what doies that mean in christian? | 07:09 |
yellowdart | _kevin: what do you need make-jpkg for? | 07:09 |
_kevin | im trying to install jre1.5, and directions i found say to enter: make-jpkg jre-1_5.... | 07:10 |
yellowdart | it's part of java-package i believe | 07:10 |
sampan | sebastian it means if you don't mind using an irc client that doesn't have a GUI, limited mouse-support, and everything is done via keyboard/text commands, that irssi is the best irc client. if you prefer a GUI then others are better | 07:10 |
_kevin | ahh, ok | 07:10 |

sebastian | not installed | 07:12 |
yellowdart | sebastian: it's all up to what you like...it's like asking someone whether to use vi or emacs :) | 07:13 |
nalioth | sebastian: all that you see, is totally without cost to you (except your time spent learning it) you may try as many irc clients as you wish and keep using the one(s) you like | 07:13 |
yellowdart | gotta just play with them and see what features you like the most | 07:13 |
sebastian | thats like cheating | 07:14 |
sebastian | no way | 07:14 |
sebastian | i like kubuntu | 07:14 |

sebastian | now what do i do myself with this | 07:14 |
sebastian | thus it reads: | 07:14 |
sebastian | vlc not installed keep multimedia player for all audio and video formats | 07:14 |
sampan | sebastian the "not installed" is telling you the status of those packages. if you want to install it, click the button -- it will change to "install" -- then up top, click "commit changes" and it will install anything you have told it to install | 07:15 |

sebastian | when do i know when to click on commit changes | 07:16 |
sampan | sebastian when you're done choosing the packages you want to install/uninstall | 07:17 |
sebastian | i already clicked on the thing it became bigger and clicked on the install button | 07:17 |
Davey|Work | nalioth: as opposed to what else would I be using in KDE? Did I miss something? :) | 07:17 |
sebastian | do i want to install all the plugins for vlc? | 07:17 |
yellowdart | Davey|Work: no, default...if you want you can go to Settings > Configure Shortcuts and change anything you want | 07:17 |
sebastian | or it will open all formats regardless | 07:17 |
yellowdart | Davey|Work: that goes for any kde app | 07:17 |
sampan | sebastian psi-jack's recommendation was good i think | 07:17 |
Psi-Jack | sebastian: I already told you the vlc parts I recommend. You don't need all the plugins. | 07:17 |

jager | yeah, it works in firefox, sorry i should have mentioned that | 07:59 |
jager | also about:plugins in konq says that there is a flash plugin | 07:59 |
jager | but going to macromedia.com doesn't show any flash in konq, just in firefox | 07:59 |
fridge | how do I get KDE to handle URL's differently? | 08:00 |
yellowdart | ok, in konq, go to settings > configure konqueror | 08:00 |

yellowdart | select plugins from the left | 08:00 |

Psi-Jack | heh. | 08:03 |
Psi-Jack | I just noticed that. | 08:03 |
yellowdart | jager: it's because they made their site with flash 8...your driver is 7 | 08:04 |

jager | bah that sucks | 08:09 |
sampan | yellowdart yeah, i know about it with gmail -- i just use firefox with gmail for that very reason ;X | 08:10 |
nalioth | sampan: sure it can. any browser can. | 08:10 |
jager | i don't actually care about macromedia, i was just using as a test page | 08:10 |
jager | so i'll just ignore them | 08:10 |
yellowdart | jager: most sites should work fine | 08:10 |
jager | and focus on getting apple's trailers to work | 08:10 |
sampan | nalioth i was just curious if it would actually fool macromedia -- i know it can spoof it's id | 08:10 |
nalioth | sampan: i suspect macromedia checks the flash version | 08:11 |
sampan | could be, but the flash plugin works for him under firefox | 08:11 |
yellowdart | jager: good luck on that... i'm pretty sure that only quicktime 6 works for linux and they are using 7 at least | 08:11 |

sampan | !ntfs | 10:04 |
ubotu | well, ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions, or writing to ntfs is risky and only experimental. Reading is OK | 10:04 |
fusionfox | eehh Okey i can read the ntfs partition only i get access denied i wanna know if it is cause i am not root or is a ntfs error? | 10:04 |

ubotu | kdesu is, like, :Use kdesu to run applications with root priveleges, when you have to. Do *not* do sudo {GUIAPP}; you can muck up your permissions and the config files. If it is not working, you may need to run "sudo adept-updater " | 12:09 |

=== |mp| [n=mp@82.153.138.212] has joined #kubuntu | ||
nalioth | Steven_M: su may break your functionality | 12:12 |
Steven_M | why is that? Please note i'm not talking about gui apps. | 12:13 |
nalioth | i just preach the choir book, Steven_M i've personally never used 'su' in x/k/ubuntu. the devs say 'sudo -i' is the preferred method, that's the way i say | 12:16 |
Steven_M | far enough, thanks nalioth | 12:18 |
nalioth | Steven_M: i've not used a root account since 2000, so i'm probably biased toward the sudo model | 12:19 |
nalioth | been using linux since 97 | 12:19 |
tictric_ | I've been using linux since 97 either and am using the root account all the time but only on the console and that | 12:20 |
tictric_ | is where it belongs | 12:20 |
nalioth | tictric_: it takes a bit of gettin used to, but i think sudo works fine for all my superuser needs. to each their own | 12:21 |
tictric_ | nalioth: yep, but I hate typing sudo all the time :-) | 12:21 |
nalioth | tictric_: so sudo -i | 12:21 |
Steven_M | I like the sudo model too don't get me wrong, I was just interested in the little details. | 12:22 |

_ale | hi, i'm a seasoned debian user moved recently to kubuntu, what is the correct way to get a more recent kernel than the stock one (i need some recently added driver) | 03:14 |
crimsun | _ale: pretty much the same way you'd do it in Debian | 03:14 |
_ale | kpgk-make? | 03:14 |
crimsun | i.e., anyway you want to. | 03:14 |
_ale | just plugging the depper binary? | 03:14 |
crimsun | if you mean make-kpkg from 'kernel-package', sure | 03:15 |

_ale | i mean is it possible to use the limux.image-2.6.15 from depper? | 03:15 |
crimsun | if you use Dapper's kernel directly, you'll need to get rid of Breezy's hotplug and compile Dapper's udev on your Breezy system. | 03:15 |
crimsun | Dapper no longer uses hotplug | 03:16 |

tictric | isodude: you got the 32-bit libs installed? | 05:23 |
isodude | There's a way to install flash right? | 05:23 |
owner | but do you notice the speed difference | 05:23 |
owner | thats what i meant | 05:23 |
isodude | I selected linux32 what I know of. | 05:23 |
indo | yea, speed is great on 64 | 05:24 |
tictric | well then i'll get the image. finally :-) | 05:24 |
isodude | I've been running 64bit all the time so I can't really compare =) | 05:24 |
isodude | 64bit gentoo -> 64bit kubuntu | 05:24 |
isodude | OK, anybody want to solve my problems now? | 05:25 |
isodude | :D | 05:25 |
tictric | isodude: you got problems? | 05:25 |
isodude | first: fixing locale sv_SE.ISO-8859-15 to work with irssi. | 05:25 |

=== blueyed [n=daniel@pdpc/supporter/active/blueyed] has joined #kubuntu | ||
tictric | why dont you use konversation? | 05:27 |
isodude | Second: Xorg doesn't send anything to the monitor when I start it with fglrx drivers. | 05:27 |
isodude | tictric: did you bother to do a /ctcp isodude version ?= ) | 05:28 |
tictric | no | 05:28 |
tictric | you didn't also? | 05:29 |
isodude | I wan't to run irssi rather than Konversation | 05:30 |

isodude | want* | 05:30 |
tictric | ah, fine. So what's better with irssi? | 05:31 |
isodude | About the second dilemma, I have a feeling I need to load some via agp drivers. | 05:32 |

isodude | If you have the correct keyboard in xorg.org, they should return somehting when pressed. | 05:45 |
isodude | So It's just to bind them to do something | 05:45 |
owner | its in the kde menu | 05:45 |

Tallia1Kubuntu | can i uninstall it ? | 07:07 |
Tm_T | nah | 07:07 |
Tm_T | you need it | 07:08 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | why? | 07:08 |
fangorious | Tallia1Kubuntu: kcron is KDE's gui cron managing app | 07:08 |
Tm_T | aye | 07:08 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | i see | 07:08 |
Tm_T | and cron is the app running any scheduled commands | 07:08 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | let me check | 07:08 |
fangorious | Tallia1Kubuntu: without cron, you will lose a lot of regular system tasks | 07:08 |
Tm_T | aye | 07:08 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | such as? | 07:08 |
Prozac | is it possible to change Konqueror so that i would need to double click on the folders/files before it opens? instead of the default "web browser" style? | 07:09 |
fangorious | Tallia1Kubuntu: updatedb is run from the script /etc/cron.daily/slocate | 07:09 |
Tm_T | fangorious: and it's runned by cron | 07:09 |
Tm_T | ;) | 07:09 |
fangorious | Tm_T: I assumed the presence of 'cron.daily' in the path would have made that obvious :) | 07:09 |
Tm_T | best solution is use Kcron and move all that to run 3 times a week at night time | 07:09 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | fangorious: is there a way to say him, run daily on night? | 07:10 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | it's not so simple by hand? | 07:10 |
Tm_T | Tallia1Kubuntu: yes, use Kcron, jusr run it as root and well, search system stuff | 07:10 |

Tallia1Kubuntu | i just bought a new usb hard disk, which FS do you suggest me? | 07:11 |
fangorious | Tallia1Kubuntu: you'll need to run kcron as root ('sudo kcron' from a terminal) | 07:11 |
owner | ext3 is the most reliable | 07:11 |
owner | then there is reiserfs | 07:12 |
fangorious | Tallia1Kubuntu: Are you going to use it on more than just linux? | 07:12 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | mhh.. don't think so.. it's for backup and to keep the window emulator | 07:12 |
owner | i say ext3 or reiserfs | 07:12 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | vmware | 07:12 |
Tm_T | vmware isn't windows emulator | 07:13 |
fangorious | Tallia1Kubuntu: then ext3 or reiserfs. I haven't done much research but I seem to get the impression that ext3 is a little more stable, while reiser can be faster | 07:13 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | ok | 07:13 |
owner | vmware can run many different os | 07:13 |
Tm_T | not that I'd care | 07:13 |
Tm_T | anyway, off we go -> | 07:13 |
Tallia1Kubuntu | owner: i know :P | 07:14 |
fangorious | Tallia1Kubuntu: in kcron, scroll down to (System Crontab) and look in Tasks. You'll see one with 'run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily; | 07:14 |

Prozac | file* | 07:24 |
Flosoft | was there any package update that may have changed something in this way? | 07:24 |
fangorious | Prozac: moving it to the top of the list should make it the default action | 07:24 |
Prozac | yeah.. Well im not sure you get me :) the default action for amaroK is just to play the file, and make a new playlist for that file. I wanna make the default so it will use the action "add to playlist" | 07:25 |
Prozac | im thinking i would have to change the launch line or something | 07:25 |

sampan | sweet_kate that's okay. "kubuntu-desktop" is just an (empty) metapackage | 07:55 |

sweet_kate | after will i still have kde? | 07:56 |
sweet_kate | yes? | 07:56 |
sampan | no, it's just an (empty) package with a bazillion dependencies, so that people can install the whole mess with ONE "package" instead of having to install each kde package separately | 07:56 |

fangorious | gsd: does the router broadcast ssid? require wep? require wpa? (wpa2? personal tkip or aes?) | 08:13 |
Jestre | fangorious: First I tried the Wireless applet, and clicking the Administrative mode allowed me to edit the info, but never activated the network | 08:13 |
gsd | ssid | 08:13 |
Nemezis | Kubuntu's KDE contains one KDE improvment patch from kde-look, how can I make it not using? | 08:13 |
Nemezis | I dont need it | 08:13 |
fangorious | Jestre: there's a checkbox to automatically try one of the configured networks, and a button to manually activate, did you use either? (i actually prefer gnome's network-manager, but the one in the backports repo) | 08:14 |
Jestre | fangorious: I tried both, neither seemed to have any effect | 08:14 |
Jestre | So I configured it through the Network Settings applet... | 08:14 |
Jestre | Went back, made a change to a setting (not the password) and saved it.. it wrote *'s to the key field, rather than the key | 08:15 |
Nemezis | I dont want to use this http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=16962 | 08:15 |
Nemezis | it makes KDE slow | 08:15 |
fangorious | Jestre: network-manager is pretty sweet, very reminiscent of apple's tool. but at the moment it requires bind as a local caching server | 08:15 |
Jestre | So I re-entered the key... and this time it saved it, but also saved a corrupt entry for the (thus far unconfigured eth0), which causes nothing to start | 08:15 |
fangorious | gsd, what wifi chipset do you have on your machine? | 08:16 |
Jestre | I finally found the 'interfaces' file, hand edited everything and brought up the network the old-fashioned way :) | 08:16 |

fangorious | gsd: who makes it? | 08:18 |
Nemezis | fangorious: are u ok? did u even see the link? | 08:18 |
Nemezis | it is not theme | 08:18 |
Nemezis | it is some stupid improvement | 08:18 |
crimsun | gsd: ``iwlist scan'' should list the ssid, then | 08:18 |
gsd | fangorious, who makes what? | 08:18 |
fangorious | Nemezis: guess i didn't read it closely. the first comment was about a change to the plastik theme, so i assumed using a theme other than plastik would mean you aren't subject to the improvement | 08:19 |
gsd | crimsun, you're right | 08:19 |
gsd | evrything is in there, but then... | 08:19 |
Nemezis | fangorious: I am using Lipstik and yet I am influenced by the "mprovment" | 08:20 |
Nemezis | improvment* | 08:20 |
fangorious | gsd: your wifi card/chip. Wireless/Pro 2.4 doesn't mean anything to me. since you can scan, i'm guessing the drivers are loading and the card is basically functioning | 08:20 |
fangorious | gsd, you can do 'sudo iwconfig eth0 ssid <ssid>' to manually specify it (substituting your interface for eth0) | 08:20 |
gsd | it's says unrecognized wireless request "ssid" | 08:22 |

hugelmopf | joel86: do you want to access it from windows as well? | 10:31 |
Blippe | joel86, ext3 is for you! all the way, most of the others are primarily for old or not for the home-user! | 10:31 |
hugelmopf | joel86: if you have to access that space from windows, then you should choose VFAT as file system. | 10:31 |
Blippe | oh, and (as hugelmopf was going to say) if you want to have a double boot system and both systems was going to use the files , use fat! | 10:32 |

juif | also, since i installed ardour, my splash screen has been appearing only sometimes. other times a standard linux text scroll thing | 11:56 |
tuskernini | ok, kubuntu login screen, but on startup... still looks like gnome... with kubuntu programs added... | 11:58 |
Puaff | juif: I got the same, but I don't think it is important, in fact I would prefer to have only text screen | 11:58 |
Panzerboy | so brb | 11:59 |
Tm_T | tuskernini: err, you should choose KDE in login | 11:59 |
Panzerboy | kde 3.5, here i come :) | 11:59 |
stevenj | yes, that worked. :) | 11:59 |
Tm_T | tuskernini: there's "sessions" or similar somewhere there, you still have gnome as "default" | 11:59 |
