| neoncode | Hey I'm helping my friend to use repos and i'm walking him though how to enable universe and multiverse repos. You just uncomment the last 2 lines and put multiverse on the end of them right? in the defult apt.sources? | 12:08 |
| ninnghizidha | the default-apt-source should have comments for multiverse too | 12:09 |
| neoncode | ttp://kubuntu.pastebin.com/510665 | 12:10 |
| neoncode | that's his sources.list | 12:10 |
| ninnghizidha | universe ie 19-20 | 12:10 |
| ninnghizidha | is on line 19-20 | 12:10 |
| ninnghizidha | multiverse is missing. | 12:11 |
| kkathman | neoncode: he needs to comment line 1 out too | 12:11 |
| bimberi | neoncode: yep, lines 19 and 20 as well | 12:11 |
| ninnghizidha | wanna have those two multiverse-lines? | 12:11 |
| neoncode | why comment out line one? | 12:11 |
| kkathman | neoncode: cuz having the cd rom in there now will mess things up | 12:11 |

| === _ubuntu is now known as Red_Herring | ||
| Arcanimus | i need teh help plx: My network doesn't work at all after i restarted the comp | 12:43 |
| Arcanimus | formatted twice, still happens after that first restart | 12:43 |
| Arcanimus | works fine before it though | 12:43 |
| Arcanimus | i am so pissed off right now at this issue - i have no clue how to fix it; never seen this problem before | 12:44 |
| Red_Herring | for the dapper flight 3, my cursor is SO FREAKING SLOW | 12:44 |
| Red_Herring | ideas on why? | 12:44 |
| deacon | Acanimus: Check /etc/network/interfaces and make sure your network settings are correct under the section for your NIC | 12:44 |
| Red_Herring | i am on a laptop, using a touchpad | 12:44 |
| Arcanimus | i didn't change it though deacon | 12:44 |
| Arcanimus | like it works perfect, everything | 12:44 |
| Arcanimus | and then i restart | 12:44 |
| Arcanimus | and no network at all | 12:44 |
| Arcanimus | unless it configs itself during shutdown to purposely screw up | 12:45 |
| deacon | Arcanimus: True, but sometimes, especially if you have used the GUI network config tool, it won't write correctly to that file. | 12:45 |
| Arcanimus | hmm ok lemme go check brb | 12:45 |
| Vge | gui one totally screws it in KDE atleast | 12:46 |
| tictric | Arcanimus: you installed dapper by any chance? | 12:46 |
| Red_Herring | anyone know why my touchpad in dapper flight 3 has so incredibly slow cursor speed? | 12:46 |
| deacon | Ok, now for my issue: I am trying to get the Nvidia 64 bit drivers installed. I am at the command line, and it keeps erroring out trying to find cc. I have both the gcc-3.4 and 4.0 base files installed, but no joy. Any ideas? | 12:47 |
| Red_Herring | yup | 12:47 |
| Red_Herring | im not at all sure about this one, | 12:47 |
| Red_Herring | but here goes: | 12:47 |
| Red_Herring | cc=gcc-3.4 | 12:48 |
| Red_Herring | export cc | 12:48 |
| Red_Herring | then run it again in teh same terminal | 12:48 |
| tictric | deacon: I just installed amd64 system and nvidia drivers from the distribution work just fine | 12:48 |
| Arcanimus | ok deacon i'm back | 12:48 |
| Red_Herring | deacon: did you read the howto? | 12:48 |
| Arcanimus | err i deleted my wireless from the config file | 12:48 |
| Arcanimus | and then used kcontrol to enable | 12:48 |

| deacon | Arcanimus: did it work? | 12:49 |
| Arcanimus | i still can't access the network | 12:49 |
| Arcanimus | i'm trying restarting the comp | 12:49 |
| Red_Herring | try the terminal? | 12:49 |
| Arcanimus | as we speak | 12:49 |
| Arcanimus | so brb again | 12:49 |

| Red_Herring | i think there was some mention of how to get around that | 12:49 |
| deacon | Red_Herring: Yeah, that's where I got the original instructions from. | 12:50 |
| Red_Herring | did you try the cc=gcc3.4... stuff | 12:50 |
| deacon | Yeah. that didn't work. "Export" is not a command | 12:50 |
| Red_Herring | not with a capital E | 12:50 |
| Red_Herring | export is | 12:50 |
| deacon | nope, lower case doesn't work either | 12:50 |
| Red_Herring | uhh | 12:51 |
| Red_Herring | i just tried it now | 12:51 |
| Red_Herring | you sure? | 12:51 |

| deacon | AMD 64 | 01:03 |
| Arcanimus | apparently it doesn't wanna recognize a static interface | 01:03 |
| Red_Herring | because amd64 are backwards compatable w/ 32 bit | 01:03 |
| Arcanimus | it works for DHCP | 01:03 |
| Arcanimus | but if i change it to static | 01:03 |

| Red_Herring | im running ubuntu 32 bit on my amd 64 3500+ | 01:03 |
| Red_Herring | it works like a charm ;-) | 01:03 |
| deacon | Arcanimus: just configure the interface file maually. it takes 30 seconds, and will work with static config | 01:03 |
| Arcanimus | i did config it manually | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | i just tried | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | but it just doesn't work | 01:04 |
| deacon | did you remember the gateway address? | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | i changed dhcp to static | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | put: | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | gateway 192.168.2.1 | 01:04 |
| Red_Herring | personally, i see no need for a wireless computer to NOT use dhcp | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | subnet 255.255.255.0 | 01:04 |
| Red_Herring | why use static anyway? | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | and the ip addy | 01:04 |
| Red_Herring | seriously | 01:04 |
| Vge | did you restart the network after changes? | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | because static is what i prefer | 01:04 |
| Red_Herring | but why> | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | i know exactly what comp is what ip | 01:04 |
| Arcanimus | i have like 10 comps in my house | 01:04 |
| Red_Herring | are you port forewarding or soemthing? | 01:05 |

Go to /etc/network and right click the interfaces file and select "edit as root" after entering your password the file will open. scroll down to the section for your nic and add these 3 lines. address <your IP addy>, netmask <your subnet mask> , gateway <your default gateway> leave DNS blank and Kubuntu will fill that in automatically from your DHCP. reboot and it shjoud work fine. | 01:07 |

| null | not really | 01:18 |
| null | can i install kde 3.5 by just doing install kbuntu-desktop ? | 01:18 |
| flipjarg | null, are you talking about apt-get repos? | 01:18 |
| flipjarg | null, if you download the kde 3.5 file and use "apt-get install kde3.5filename" it will probably work. | 01:21 |
| null | eh.. | 01:21 |
| null | flipjarg, i just installed breezy.. | 01:21 |
| flipjarg | ah. | 01:21 |
| null | so i can just go ahead and do apt-get install kubuntu-desktop to get kde 3.5 ? | 01:21 |
| null | or do i have to add some sources or something? | 01:22 |
| bimberi | !kde3.5 | 01:22 |
| ubotu | rumour has it, kde3.5 is http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php | 01:22 |
| Zappa | null: just add the source and upgrade - works a treat | 01:23 |
| null | so i have to add this source? | 01:23 |
| flipjarg | Does anyone know where i can get bittorrent-gui and bittorrent? Not the ones that come with kubuntu though. It's not the same as the bittorrent i used before. | 01:23 |
| Zappa | use azureus! | 01:23 |
| flipjarg | It's the same but just looks different, it looks crappier. | 01:24 |
| flipjarg | i used too i guess i'll give it a try again. | 01:24 |

| Red_Herring | unless you have a REAL need to, its safer and more reliable to just keep the kernel you have | 01:54 |

| orion | null: yes I am | 02:28 |
| jindiaz | kubuntu | 02:28 |
| Red_Herring | ryanakca: not sure | 02:28 |
| ryanakca | jinidaz.... try sudo.... | 02:28 |
| Red_Herring | jindiaz: i assumed | 02:28 |
| jindiaz | sudo instead of apt get? | 02:28 |
| Red_Herring | since you are in #kubuntu | 02:28 |
| jindiaz | yah that sudo thing worked b4 | 02:28 |
| ryanakca | sudo apt-get | 02:28 |
| jindiaz | when i did skype with it | 02:28 |
| ryanakca | sudo apt-get install whateveritscalled | 02:28 |
| jindiaz | ooooo | 02:29 |

| shawkins | yeah, or you could be stupid like me and just keep it logged in as root.. | 02:29 |
| jindiaz | HAHAHAHAAH | 02:29 |
| jindiaz | joking, relax | 02:29 |
| shawkins | then you don't need sudo :) | 02:29 |
| Red_Herring | did ANYONE look at that guide i posted here? | 02:29 |
| Vge | or "use administrator for this following command" | 02:29 |
| ryanakca | btw.... its confusing to go from FC4 to kubuntu/ubuntu | 02:29 |
| Red_Herring | yup | 02:29 |
| shawkins | not really.. for me... I've used enough to know what each one does :) | 02:29 |
| null | whats so confusing? | 02:29 |
| ryanakca | I'm still used to typing su.... | 02:29 |
| Red_Herring | thats why i forced my computer club to ditch FC4 | 02:29 |
| Red_Herring | ryanakca: you can enable su | 02:29 |
| Red_Herring | its easy | 02:30 |
| ryanakca | I know | 02:30 |
| Red_Herring | just not recommended | 02:30 |

| shawkins | I changed my root pass and then enabled root to login.. | 02:30 |
| jindiaz | AWWW it says E: Couldn't find package vlc | 02:30 |

| shawkins | null will do it :) | 02:32 |
| null | it will have univeerse already there.. just commented out | 02:32 |
| shawkins | I use command.. | 02:32 |
| jindiaz | lol, ok, so in terminal then? | 02:32 |
| Red_Herring | or sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:32 |
| null | omg! | 02:32 |

| null | so i have to do this? and i just inatalled ubuntu for the first time ever :p | 02:32 |

| Arcanimus | wee | 02:33 |
| ryanakca | ick | 02:33 |
| null | but i prefer vim :) | 02:33 |

| shawkins | # deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe | 02:33 |
| shawkins | take that... | 02:33 |
| jindiaz | ok ok, i did that and this thing pops up, now whut? | 02:33 |

| shawkins | *# | 02:33 |

| flipjarg | does anyone know how to get amarok to play mp3's? | 02:34 |
| Red_Herring | sure | 02:34 |
| Red_Herring | 2 ways | 02:34 |
| null | ryanakca, what? ask someone who has never used vim and only emacs, they will say '...oh vim is too complicated for me...' | 02:34 |
| null | you get what i am saying? | 02:34 |
| Red_Herring | a) install all the other gstreamer codecs | 02:34 |
| Red_Herring | or b) install amarok-xine | 02:34 |
| Arcanimus | I use VI and only vi | 02:34 |
| Red_Herring | which uses xine instead of gstreamer | 02:34 |
| Arcanimus | i really don't like emacs or pico or anything else | 02:35 |
| ryanakca | the first or second day I used linux.... it was debian woody.... I tried editing with emacs.... I couldnt get out of it... that was the last time I really wanted to use emacs.... I just rebooted the system and stuck to vim | 02:35 |
| Red_Herring | vi forever! | 02:35 |
| ryanakca | lol | 02:35 |
| Arcanimus | amen Red_Herring | 02:35 |
| shawkins | Kate!!!! | 02:35 |
| Arcanimus | :) | 02:35 |
| jindiaz | awww man, ummm ok, i typed the code in terminal, now whut???? | 02:35 |
| Red_Herring | kate? | 02:35 |
| flipjarg | Red_Herring: i've done what it said on the amarok website. i installed a bunch of libs and it didn't work. i didn't use amaraok-xine, i'll try that quick. | 02:35 |
| Red_Herring | are you kidding? | 02:35 |
| Arcanimus | LOL | 02:35 |

| null | c;mon.. don;t be silly | 02:35 |
| Red_Herring | flipjarg: im not sure if thats exactally what its called | 02:35 |
| ryanakca | when I run vi.... it runs vim instead.... its odd | 02:35 |
| shawkins | I prefer Kate over any other normal text editor... its what my site is written in.. | 02:35 |
| Red_Herring | it might be called amarok-engines or something | 02:35 |

| Red_Herring | are we talking about xorg programs or terminal? | 02:36 |
| null | ryanakca, and what version of emacs did you use? | 02:36 |

| ryanakca | emacs doesnt do that..... I honestly dont know | 02:36 |

| shawkins | try it ryan... | 02:47 |
| shawkins | it'll give ya a yes or no... but I don't have a floppy so :) | 02:47 |
| ryanakca | ioctl(FDFMTTRK): Device or resource busy | 02:47 |

| Red_Herring | shawkins: south side means a whitesox fan, the baseball team | 02:48 |
| Red_Herring | and we are huge rivals w/ the cubs | 02:48 |
| Arcanimus | what's a popular mp3 playing software? | 02:48 |
| Red_Herring | and this year we won! | 02:48 |
| Arcanimus | I'm currently using amaroK, tried XMMS (didn't like it that much) | 02:48 |
| Red_Herring | Arcanimus: take you pick | 02:48 |
| Arcanimus | and i've tried BMP in the past | 02:48 |
| Red_Herring | amarok is nice | 02:48 |
| glick | amarok is nice | 02:48 |
| Vge | XMMS is a winamp clone if you like it | 02:48 |
| Red_Herring | but mplayer and vlc play everything | 02:48 |
| Arcanimus | I don't like amaroK only because it's too bulky | 02:48 |
| shawkins | <----------------------- is afk... one second | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | vlc reminds me too much of windows media player on windows 95 | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | though i might try this so called mplayer | 02:49 |
| Red_Herring | neither can do plalist things | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | crap. | 02:49 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | then nevermind | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | sigh :( | 02:49 |
| Red_Herring | hmm... | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | maybe i'll just run winamp through wine | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | lol | 02:49 |
| Red_Herring | you could | 02:49 |
| Arcanimus | tried before on SuSE, didn't work that great | 02:50 |
| Red_Herring | but that would be worse than amarok | 02:50 |
| Arcanimus | yeah | 02:50 |
| Vge | XMMS cant play what your hart desires? | 02:50 |
| Arcanimus | it's too.... i dunno... it's like a winamp wannabe | 02:50 |

| _greg_ | im veeery new to that whole linux/kubuntu thing | 02:59 |
| Red_Herring | thats ok | 02:59 |
| _greg_ | just installed latest kubuntu yesterday | 02:59 |
| _greg_ | so i had some basic questions | 02:59 |
| Red_Herring | shoot | 02:59 |
| _greg_ | thought u guys mught help | 02:59 |
| Red_Herring | sure | 03:00 |
| ryanakca | hmmm..... how do you burn .img onto floppies.... *misses rawritewin*..... but then.... kubuntu probably has something better.... | 03:00 |
| Red_Herring | wow floppys, those are still kicking around? | 03:01 |
| ryanakca | erm... yeah | 03:01 |
| ryanakca | I just bought a pack of 24 on the weekend | 03:01 |
| Red_Herring | i havent used a floppy in 2 years | 03:01 |
| ryanakca | its all our crappy school computers support | 03:01 |
| _greg_ | ok, first of all - downloaded some packeges off the internet, opened konsole, browsed to their folder, and following instructions typed ./configure, and it gave me error saying that my gcc can't create executables | 03:01 |
| ryanakca | *gulp* | 03:02 |
| Red_Herring | _greg_: heres the thing about ubuntu: | 03:02 |
| ryanakca | wonderfull thing with super cow powers.... | 03:02 |
| ryanakca | apt | 03:02 |
| Red_Herring | it uses somethgin called apt-get | 03:02 |
| Red_Herring | apt | 03:02 |
| _greg_ | yeah | 03:02 |
| Red_Herring | and it is a wonderful program that will install anything in the world | 03:02 |
| _greg_ | oh. great | 03:02 |
| Red_Herring | without any of the error messages you are getting | 03:02 |
| bimberi | Red_Herring: steady on :P | 03:03 |
| Red_Herring | so what program is this? | 03:03 |
| _greg_ | licq | 03:03 |
| Red_Herring | thats an easy one | 03:03 |
| Red_Herring | open the terminal | 03:03 |
| Red_Herring | run "sudo apt-get install licq" | 03:03 |
| _greg_ | does that mean that it will download it from somewhere? | 03:04 |
| Red_Herring | bimberi: if you disaggree w/ any of this, feel free to step in at any time | 03:04 |
| bimberi | _greg_: there's also kopete (which is installed by default) | 03:04 |
| Red_Herring | it downloads it from ubuntu | 03:04 |
| arrinmurr | _greg_: is there something in icq that kopete doesn't have? | 03:04 |
| Red_Herring | their servers | 03:04 |
| bimberi | Red_Herring: no way, it's fantastic ... | 03:04 |
| arrinmurr | err.. licq i mean | 03:04 |
| Vge | ryanakca: does this help with floppys http://www.linuxmigration.com/quickref/install/media.html#blin | 03:04 |
| _greg_ | yeah, i almost vomited when i first saw it... it might not be that bad, but im sooo used to the greates icq client - QIP... | 03:04 |
| bimberi | Red_Herring: i liked 'anything in the world' | 03:04 |
| bimberi | :) | 03:04 |
| Red_Herring | well... for a n00b, it does | 03:05 |
| Red_Herring | and its just assuming within the realms of phisical possibility | 03:05 |
| ryanakca | Vge: thanks.... | 03:05 |

| _greg_ | yeah | 03:06 |
| Red_Herring | are you running adept now? | 03:06 |
| Red_Herring | or synaptic? | 03:06 |
| _greg_ | should i close it? | 03:06 |
| _greg_ | adept | 03:06 |
| Red_Herring | YES | 03:06 |
| Red_Herring | thats the problem | 03:06 |
| Red_Herring | only one program can use apt at a time | 03:06 |
| Red_Herring | and adept is using apt now | 03:07 |
| Red_Herring | working now? | 03:07 |
| _greg_ | closed, tried it again.. here is what i get: | 03:07 |

| yellowdart | a quick question for anyone who has upgraded to kde3.5...i noticed that there are no restricted/universe/multiverse repositories...does that mean I should just wait until 6.04? | 03:10 |
| _greg_ | i guess thats a minor error, right? | 03:10 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 03:10 |
| Red_Herring | i think | 03:10 |
| Red_Herring | as for yellowdart | 03:10 |

| _greg_ | ah... | 03:10 |
| Red_Herring | ah, the key part | 03:10 |

| yellowdart | Red_Herring: deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde35 breezy main has ONLY a 'main' | 03:11 |
| Red_Herring | anyone care to lecture _greg_ on enabling repos? | 03:11 |
| Red_Herring | yellowdart: so? | 03:12 |
| _greg_ | i would appreciate that :) | 03:12 |
| Vge | http://www.psychocats.net/linux/sources.php | 03:12 |
| Red_Herring | its not supposed to replace EVERYTHING | 03:12 |
| yellowdart | Red_Herring: i was wondering if that would affect my upgrade | 03:12 |
| Red_Herring | not at all | 03:12 |
| Red_Herring | just keep the same sources.list | 03:12 |
| Red_Herring | except add the kde3.5 line | 03:12 |
| yellowdart | Red_Herring: yeah, i'm familiar with it | 03:12 |
| Red_Herring | ok | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | good | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | but it wont affect your upgrade | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | apt is cool like that | 03:13 |
| yellowdart | just didnt want to have to set up everything again...i have lots of complex server setups here for my development | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | wha! | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | then dont install kde3.5 | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | well nvm | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | it should be fine | 03:13 |
| Red_Herring | just back stuff up first | 03:13 |

| yellowdart | Red_Herring: dont really want to spend 5 hours restoring...but, eh...i like playing with fire ;) | 03:15 |
| _greg_ | all right, maybe i'd use GAIM for now. have one more question though | 03:15 |
| Mias | .. also hungup on tyinstall | 03:15 |
| _greg_ | how do i install new themes? | 03:15 |
| Red_Herring | what themes are we talking? | 03:15 |
| Mias | but it did a bit mor so I coul boot it :) | 03:15 |
| Mias | tzinstall even | 03:15 |
| _greg_ | kde-look.org, the ones that change the way windows look like, etc | 03:16 |
| Red_Herring | ok... | 03:16 |
| Red_Herring | well | 03:16 |
| _greg_ | i am not sure how they specifically called | 03:16 |
| Red_Herring | i never tried that one | 03:16 |
| Red_Herring | i just installed teh osx theme for kde | 03:16 |
| Red_Herring | and im satisfied w/ that | 03:16 |
| Vge | just copy Follow.jpg from XP and you feel right at home :) | 03:16 |
| _greg_ | im more used to my win2k ;) | 03:17 |
| yellowdart | Red_Herring: i prefer the osx theme for osx myself..hehe | 03:17 |
| Red_Herring | if you enable the universe repos, you can get linux to look very similar to osx | 03:17 |

| Red_Herring | anyone care to explain to the world how to enable the universe repo? | 03:18 |
| _greg_ | so, its that mysterious "universe respos" where're stuck with again.. how do i enable it? :) | 03:18 |
| _greg_ | is it THAT complicated? | 03:18 |
| Vge | http://www.psychocats.net/linux/sources.php | 03:19 |
| Vge | or is there something wrong in my link :) | 03:19 |
| _greg_ | awesome :) thanks, VGE | 03:19 |
| Red_Herring | its not that complicated | 03:19 |
| yellowdart | _greg_: no, it's not complicated...i'm guessing you're using Adept for package management? | 03:19 |
| Red_Herring | but tricky over irc | 03:19 |
| _greg_ | ys | 03:19 |
| _greg_ | yes | 03:19 |
| Mias | how to get my german keyboardlayout and X? | 03:19 |
| _greg_ | oh, that was my third question! but with russian layout | 03:20 |
| Mias | err, I have X but no wm.. | 03:20 |
| arrinmurr | !repos | 03:20 |

| yellowdart | _greg_: ok...in adept...click the "adept" menu...(the first menu) and click "manage repositories" | 03:20 |
| Red_Herring | anyone try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" | 03:20 |
| Red_Herring | thats for the keyboard layout, screen resolution etc. | 03:21 |
| _greg_ | clicked | 03:21 |
| yellowdart | _greg_: right-click all the lines with 'universe' at the end...select 'enable' | 03:21 |

| yellowdart | Red_Herring: those lines are already in the sources.list...and they dont hurt to be enabled | 03:24 |
| _greg_ | the reason why i get into that in the first place was installing licq... im trying apt-get install licq | 03:24 |
| Red_Herring | ok | 03:24 |
| _greg_ | and get muuch more text now, but in the end same "couldnt find package licq" | 03:24 |
| Red_Herring | you need to run "sudo apt-get update" again | 03:25 |
| Red_Herring | then try again | 03:25 |
| _greg_ | oh, k.. its downloading stuff now | 03:26 |
| Red_Herring | good | 03:26 |
| _greg_ | yay, working | 03:26 |
| _greg_ | THANKS! :) | 03:26 |
| yellowdart | _greg_: if you want to see the file that you just edited...it's /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:26 |
| Red_Herring | oh, and if you want to theme kde | 03:27 |
| Red_Herring | now you can | 03:27 |
| _greg_ | yeah, i tried to edit it before manually | 03:27 |
| Red_Herring | sudo apt-get install kxdocker | 03:27 |
| Red_Herring | thats the osx bar :-) | 03:27 |
| hawking | I want to use smb4k to connect to a windoze computer but it gives this error : An error occured while trying to mount the share smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct user mounts how can i do that? | 03:27 |
| Red_Herring | look under preferences | 03:27 |
| Red_Herring | hawking: it has some sort of preference that mentions using sudo | 03:28 |
| Red_Herring | check that box | 03:28 |
| Mias | Red_Herring: and for the console? | 03:28 |
| Red_Herring | Mias: console? | 03:28 |
| Mias | Red_Herring: without X | 03:28 |
| Red_Herring | oh, not sure | 03:28 |
| Red_Herring | look in the forums | 03:28 |
| Red_Herring | im sure someone at ubuntuforums.org managed it | 03:29 |
| kkathman | another OS bar is ksmoothdock...its pretty nice too, but you'll want to get it from the source :) | 03:29 |
| Mias | nevermind, more interesting is which wm is on the install cd | 03:29 |
| Red_Herring | hawking: i would verify what i just said, but im trying out the liveCD of dapper drake | 03:29 |
| Red_Herring | ksmoothdock? | 03:30 |
| kkathman | yep | 03:30 |
| Red_Herring | never heard of it | 03:30 |
| Red_Herring | does it have drag and drop? | 03:30 |
| _greg_ | yeah, i saw it on kde-apps | 03:30 |
| Red_Herring | because thats VERY annoying w/ kxdocker | 03:30 |
| kkathman | its ok..there are like 20,000+ packages, no one has heard of all of them :) | 03:31 |
| Red_Herring | there is a lack of drag n drop all throughout linux | 03:31 |
| Red_Herring | is it in the repos? | 03:31 |
| Red_Herring | ANY of the repos? | 03:31 |
| Vge | arrrgh, i just downloaded and burned to my only cd-r on frigging ubuntu-live cd T_T | 03:31 |
| kkathman | I believe it is, but as per ubuntu, its very dated | 03:31 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 03:31 |
| _greg_ | im not a big fan(thats how you spell it?) of those docking things... tried ObjectDock under XP few times, it gets too annying | 03:31 |
| kkathman | thats why I suggested dl the source and compiling | 03:31 |
| Red_Herring | use RXDocker under windows | 03:32 |
| Red_Herring | its nice | 03:32 |
| kkathman | in KDE3.5 you can build your own docker anyway | 03:32 |
| Red_Herring | really? how? | 03:32 |
| kkathman | not too much need for it | 03:32 |
| hawking | Red_Herring : it says this --> Another user is currently editing one of the syste files that Smb4k wants to write to please try again later??? | 03:32 |
| kkathman | using panels | 03:32 |
| hawking | I am on my laptop | 03:32 |
| _greg_ | well, im stuck with my 2k server system, old school style windows, no docks :) | 03:32 |
| Red_Herring | hawking: odd | 03:32 |
| Red_Herring | kkathman: but they dont raise when you mouse over them, osx style | 03:32 |
| Red_Herring | a little osx theme couldnt hurt | 03:33 |
| Red_Herring | just w/o the osx bar | 03:33 |
| kkathman | ahh you want the parabolic thing | 03:33 |
| kkathman | no they dont do that | 03:33 |
| Red_Herring | its very visually pleasing | 03:33 |
| Red_Herring | i have to say | 03:33 |
| Vge | i hate when cd is still warm from burning and totally useless | 03:33 |
| kkathman | but they do disappear from the screen leaving more space :) | 03:33 |
| Red_Herring | yup | 03:33 |
| kkathman | which I like | 03:33 |
| Red_Herring | especially on laptops | 03:33 |
| Red_Herring | when tere isnt much space | 03:33 |
| Vge | ya T_T | 03:34 |
| kkathman | exactly | 03:34 |
| _greg_ | yes, themes, id love to have a little osx theme! and there are so many of them... anyone dare to explain the installation proccess? there must be some theme managing thing | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | yup greg | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | there is | 03:34 |
| _greg_ | whee! | 03:34 |
| _greg_ | :) | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | and its VERY easy to use | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | well first | 03:34 |
| _greg_ | good! | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | to install teh osx theme | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | you need to use adept | 03:34 |
| kkathman | some themes tho, have to be compiled and they are a pain :( | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | becasuse i have no freaking clue how to spell bagarah | 03:34 |
| Red_Herring | and thats not spelled right | 03:35 |

| Red_Herring | and the one that says kwin-<something that looks like bagarah>, install | 03:35 |

| Red_Herring | and i havent studied yet | 03:41 |
| Red_Herring | AT ALL | 03:41 |
| Red_Herring | AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH | 03:41 |
| _greg_ | yah... exams are soon :( | 03:41 |
| yellowdart | Red_Herring: good news...the numbers dont change...so you should be safe | 03:41 |
| shawkins | I never studied for math.. seemed to understand it enough not to bother | 03:41 |
| kkathman | shawkins: same here | 03:41 |

| kkathman | ok ok if you can do one matrix transformation in linear, why do 10 ?? | 03:42 |
| shawkins | yeah, to much stuff for me to do.... fact is, don't think I studied for a single thing school wise... never needed to | 03:42 |
| _greg_ | ok, installing Baghira was easy enough. but what about other themes? | 03:42 |

| Red_Herring | i usually never study for anything | 03:42 |
| kkathman | _greg_: was baghira in the repos? | 03:42 |
| Red_Herring | but when my grade is 90, my final is very important | 03:42 |
| _greg_ | yeah | 03:42 |
| Red_Herring | so therefore i need to study my ass off | 03:43 |
| kkathman | wow nice they put that there now | 03:43 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 03:43 |
| Red_Herring | so is kxdocker | 03:43 |
| yellowdart | kkathman: even if you know how to do the first transformation...why go through with it :) | 03:43 |
| kkathman | Red_Herring: ahhh on the ol fence | 03:43 |
| _greg_ | is there other themes there? | 03:43 |
| shawkins | kkathman: just because I don't have to study doesn't mean I got all A's.... I got 100% on my geo finals..... algebra 2 was a different matter... stopped there | 03:43 |
| Red_Herring | in multiple subjecuts too | 03:43 |
| Red_Herring | well, i got a 125% in world history | 03:43 |
| _greg_ | too many bonus questions? | 03:43 |
| Red_Herring | and didnt need to take a final | 03:43 |
| Red_Herring | yup ;-) | 03:44 |
| yellowdart | Red_Herring: does that mean you studied into the future? | 03:44 |
| Red_Herring | no | 03:44 |
| _greg_ | means that teacher crewed up :) | 03:44 |
| _greg_ | screwed | 03:44 |
| Red_Herring | that means i took it over the summer | 03:44 |
| _greg_ | * | 03:44 |
| shawkins | I never went above 100%.... when it got to 95 I'd slack off a bit until it went to 85... then I'd have it back to 95 in two weeks | 03:44 |

| Red_Herring | in computer programming i made a c++ program that plays tic tac toe with an artificial AI, and my teacher gave me 110 for it | 03:45 |
| Red_Herring | it was about 310 lines of code | 03:45 |
| Vge | no, 1-5 is the scale, but it was my 4 time in the exam :D | 03:45 |
| _greg_ | haha... my final was winsck based chat | 03:45 |
| shawkins | I went to one computer programming class... all my school had, teacher didn't know a thing, so I just kept the book..... | 03:45 |
| _greg_ | teacher was really amazed... | 03:45 |

| kkathman | I would just do 2 lines and get an answer...finally she did just like you - come up to the board and work this..... | 03:51 |
| shawkins | I can stand commenting..... helps me for later on, specially when I still don't know everything about the langauge.... lets me know why I did something stupid | 03:51 |
| kkathman | I looked at it for like 15 seconds, and she smiled like "Gotcha" | 03:51 |
| kkathman | then I wrote the answer | 03:51 |
| Red_Herring | the only problem w/ commenting is that we use a crappy IDE | 03:51 |

| shawkins | kkathman: got 100 on both my finals for that class | 03:53 |
| Red_Herring | LinuxNIT-laptop: that depends | 03:53 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | on what? | 03:54 |
| Red_Herring | LinuxNIT-laptop: as long as the pacckage names change once in a while... | 03:54 |
| Red_Herring | its fine | 03:54 |
| _greg_ | wow, all those linus programs have such strange for my windows-ears names | 03:54 |
| Red_Herring | but under a p4, it shouldn take that long | 03:54 |

| shawkins | well if you have any questions there are many of us here willing to help :) | 04:33 |
| asplode | I do have a few | 04:33 |
| asplode | I'm reading the wiki on installing KDE into a regular Ubuntu installation | 04:33 |
| asplode | and I'm currently doing the apt-get install of kubuntu-desktop meta package | 04:34 |
| asplode | but what then? how do I select between gnome and kde? | 04:34 |
| shawkins | when you login, I believe its named session.. | 04:34 |
| shawkins | there will be a button of some sort named session, click on it | 04:35 |
| shawkins | it will give you the choice | 04:35 |
| asplode | hmm. | 04:35 |
| asplode | thats kinda cool. | 04:35 |
| asplode | this looks like its going to take a while though | 04:36 |
| shawkins | note, I think thats it, taking that out of memory, if not, just click buttons :) | 04:36 |
| shawkins | yeah, kde isn't exactly the smallest thing around | 04:36 |
| asplode | clicking buttons is more convenient for changing guis | 04:36 |
| asplode | is it worth it? | 04:37 |
| shawkins | I prefer kde over gnome big time | 04:37 |
| asplode | I ran suse linux back when it was 9.1 | 04:38 |
| shawkins | I like the way it does stuff, I've used both over the years and kde just has a thing I like about it, that and there are many programs built specifily for kde, no matter what you need chances are kde has a program for it | 04:38 |
| asplode | and I think it used KDE | 04:38 |

| t00r | but theres no way to actually remove gtk | 05:23 |
| shawkins | taking gtk out though.. will take many others out I would think, as many depend on it | 05:23 |
| t00r | Yeah, im willing to do that | 05:23 |
| yellowdart | shawkins: yeah, decided to press my luck...ran into one snag...some doc files didnt install, but i got around it | 05:23 |
| wezlo | enfact, nothings listed | 05:23 |
| wezlo | but good idea | 05:23 |
| yellowdart | shawkins: but all-in-all i got 3.5 up and running | 05:24 |
| shawkins | t00r: there is not one way to do it... to many packages, you'll have to use adept and remove each one.. | 05:24 |
| shawkins | yellowdart: thats good to hear, I did a full dist-upgrade the second I installed kubuntu on this computer a week ago.. worked fine, though I have some program that crashes while I shut it down... so I just leave it run | 05:25 |
| shawkins | wezlo: I really don't know, if you are worried about its contents... which this may be it... just take those files in one directory, and drop them in the other.. then create a symlink | 05:26 |

| shawkins | as it works fine on mine | 05:26 |
| wezlo | yah | 05:26 |
| yellowdart | shawkins: i have TONS of development stuff from uni/multiverse...i didnt expect 100%...all my apps still work and are configured correctly...plus my treo600 still syncs fine.. so i'm happy for now | 05:27 |

| shawkins | yellowdart: I had the similar problem, except I didn't configure anything yet, I installed everything I wanted first... then decided at the last second to use dapper... | 05:27 |

| yellowdart | shawkins: any line that has your name is red | 05:28 |
| shawkins | oh, how pretty :) | 05:29 |
| shawkins | didn't know that | 05:29 |
| shawkins | I figured people were making it read whenever | 05:29 |
| shawkins | thanks | 05:29 |
| yellowdart | yeah, it's so you can sift through potentially 100's of posts | 05:29 |
| shawkins | makes sense to me | 05:29 |
| t00r | ok removed all pkgs with gtk in them, its libgtk-2.0bin i think, i feel cleansed now | 05:29 |
| shawkins | how many did you remove? | 05:30 |
| abionnnn | t00r: hey, wanna check out my cool gtk-based program? What??? You don't have gtk??? :P | 05:30 |
| wezlo | shakwins, did it - it still doesn't work | 05:30 |
| shawkins | wezlo: odd, quite odd.... | 05:31 |
| t00r | I think i removed between 50 and 100 | 05:31 |
| t00r | abionnnn, I can use my moms computer. | 05:31 |
| shawkins | wezlo: hate to say it but I don't know what else to do, so one sec, I'll do my own googleing | 05:31 |
| abionnnn | t00r hehe | 05:31 |
| shawkins | t00r: regardless.... nowadays space isn't a problem.. why even hassle with it, thats why I install everything I think I'll ever need once I do a fresh install :) | 05:32 |
| t00r | I'd rather not accidently open something like gtkcalc and have 30 new processes suck up my 512 megs of ram | 05:33 |

| spstarr_home | http://66.93.236.84/~jedwin/projects/kio_msits/ | 05:37 |
| spstarr_home | seems its not ported to KDE3 | 05:37 |
| shawkins | enfact: much of it has been thought out in my head | 05:37 |
| shawkins | wezlo: jahshaka? | 05:38 |
| shawkins | enfact: so I name I have not come up with as of yet... | 05:38 |
| shawkins | spstarr... kchmviewer does work in dapper | 05:39 |
| spstarr_home | what dependencies? | 05:39 |
| spstarr_home | do you have kio_msits? | 05:39 |

| wezlo | I need to head to bed, thank gang | 05:40 |
| spstarr_home | which KDE | 05:40 |
| shawkins | enfact: I've coded some, getting the whole backend done.. a lot of work, theres much more then what I've said behind it | 05:40 |
| enfact | sounds like it:) | 05:40 |
| enfact | what are you coding it in? | 05:40 |
| spstarr_home | shawkins, do you know which dependency your ms-its io-slave is found in? | 05:41 |
| shawkins | the site is in PHP.... I've got the planning for the rest of it.. which I'll go through in a second.... I don't know what it'll be in | 05:41 |
| spstarr_home | seems odd the .deb didn't install the rest of the dependencies aside from libchm1 | 05:41 |
| spstarr_home | libchm.so.1.0.0 isn't a kde-ioslave ;/ | 05:42 |
| shawkins | besides having the front-end.... at my end I'll have a computer, possibly two, and a T3 lines with it... everyday the computer will check for any new updates, if it finds any it'll download the sources, compile, and then package for each distro I intend on supporting.. | 05:42 |

| === spstarr_home scratches head | ||

| === shawkins looks around curious as to if kkathman is about | ||
| spstarr_home | can you do a dpkg -S on the ms-its ioslave DSO? | 05:44 |
| spstarr_home | that would give me a good hint as to whats missing | 05:44 |
| kkathman | yup iM around ...wassup? | 05:45 |
| spstarr_home | dpkg -S /usr/lib/kde3/kio_msits.so or so | 05:45 |
| spstarr_home | if thats the name of it | 05:45 |
| shawkins | yeah, one sec | 05:45 |
| seth|lappy | please please don't paste the output of that | 05:45 |
| seth|lappy | pastebin it | 05:45 |
| seth|lappy | !pastebin | 05:46 |
| ubotu | somebody said pastebin was a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org | 05:46 |
| seth|lappy | :) | 05:46 |
| shawkins | kkathman: nothing, just checking to see if you were there... :) | 05:46 |
| spstarr_home | no no, i just need the package name not pastebin :) | 05:46 |
| kkathman | heh | 05:46 |
| shawkins | kkathman on a more serious note.... | 05:46 |
| shawkins | kkathman: - and any others that may know this.... I want to create a script that checks for new updates, downloads them, compiles, and then packages..... what language would be best fit for this? bash, perl... python... anything else? | 05:47 |
| spstarr_home | is it still chuggin along ? | 05:48 |
| shawkins | kchmviewer: /usr/lib/kde3/kio_msits.so | 05:48 |
| spstarr_home | !!!!!! | 05:48 |
| ubotu | spstarr_home: What? | 05:48 |
| shawkins | thats he output :) | 05:48 |
| spstarr_home | its in the package? | 05:48 |
| === spstarr_home looks at the directory | ||
| spstarr_home | unless i need to restart KDE? | 05:48 |
| spstarr_home | (?) reload the KIO slaves? | 05:48 |
| spstarr_home | i have the file too | 05:49 |
| kkathman | shawkins: any of those is fine, but prolly a bash would be best and easiest | 05:49 |
| kkathman | in fact we talked about that earlier today :) | 05:49 |
| spstarr_home | since those are module DSOs, ldconfig won't do it | 05:49 |
| spstarr_home | a new konsole didn't work | 05:49 |
| kkathman | shawkins: SuSE has something called YOU (YaST Online Updater) which does actually that | 05:49 |
| shawkins | kkathman: not worried about easiest :) just.... any difference in speed? as I won't be just doing small things... but I don't know if a script calling commands can be much different speed wise from one another | 05:50 |
| spstarr_home | looks like i need to restart KDE to load a kio_slave | 05:50 |
| spstarr_home | hrm, thats not good | 05:50 |
| kkathman | shawkins: nah I dont think so...the only thing is plugging the params, and that will be tricky | 05:50 |
| shawkins | kkathman: its not for me... its so that I can in turn burn them to a CD or put them up for download.. for my project :) | 05:50 |
| enfact | YOU is not web based however | 05:50 |
| spstarr_home | some other KDE service i guess needs a way to reload ioslaves | 05:50 |
| kkathman | shawkins: for instance..you can do a apt-get update and then apt-get dist upgrade I suppose .. a little error trapping and yer done | 05:51 |
| shawkins | kkathman: don't know if you followed anything I said earlier about it, but this site will be a mass distrabution center type thing for just about any piece of open source software out there.. | 05:51 |
| spstarr_home | oh manually running kioslave | 05:52 |
| shawkins | kkathman: so I needed a way to do as much as possible automaticly without working to hard on it all day.. | 05:52 |
| === yellowdart is happy that kmail FINALLY filters IMAP folders in kde3.5 | ||
| spstarr_home | ugh, you need to register the io-slave | 05:52 |
| kkathman | shawkins: whats to do?? those 2 statements basically :) | 05:52 |
| shawkins | kkathman: throwing a script together sounds good to me | 05:52 |
| kkathman | you could make it harder I suppose :) | 05:53 |
| shawkins | kkathman: so... those two statements work good for ME.... but.. lets go through this... what I'm going to do | 05:53 |
| shawkins | ok... I'm making a site, at this site people from around the world will be able to pick the software they like and 1. Download it, 2. Burn it to a CD and have it shipped to them.... | 05:53 |
| kkathman | shawkins: well, Im not an expert on bash scripts , but there may be some options you need to issue ...dunno | 05:54 |
| shawkins | So.... my idea was to have the computer itself download everything, compile, package it, so that when needed I can simply take it and burn it to a CD... that process is automated as well | 05:54 |
| enfact | shawkins: will this make specific updates or packages for what the user is running? | 05:55 |
| kkathman | shawkins: but if you created a bash script with those two items, feasibly you could have cron run it periodically | 05:55 |
| t00r | God gnome is the worst most underdeveloped DE ever | 05:55 |
| t00r | Id rather use Xfce without a file browser | 05:55 |
| shawkins | kkathman: I realize the options part, but thats figured out as well | 05:55 |
| kkathman | excellent!! | 05:55 |
| kkathman | yer ahead of me :) | 05:55 |
| t00r | sorry ignore my comment | 05:55 |
| shawkins | katthman: I realize that part, however, like I said, thats for ME... and... thats also only for this distro, I'm going to support various distros with this | 05:56 |
| kkathman | ahh ok | 05:56 |

| kkathman | sure | 05:56 |
| glick | gnome is *ok* | 05:56 |
| shawkins | kkathman: Since its not only for me... and not only for kubuntu, I need a way to compile and package many programs... this includes stuff not included or readily avaliable with ubuntu | 05:57 |
| shawkins | so... thats where downloading sources and such come in handy, I'll have to type out a thing on this again... | 05:57 |

| kkathman | shawkins: give me an example of these things? | 05:58 |
| shawkins | kkathman: what do you mean? and example process of it? | 05:58 |
| P3L|C4N0 | hi people | 05:58 |
| kkathman | shawkins: no, the things that "arent included" etc, cuz ther are scripts already written that do that | 05:59 |
| shawkins | kkathman: ok, well... let me type this out and I'll see if it helps.. | 05:59 |

| shawkins | kkathman: Everyday, say at noon, the computer will check, through a list of programs set by me, for updates on each one, I'll be using RSS where possible to find new updates, mailing lists, you name it, whatever there is, I'll use it. Once it has that list the computer will fetch the source of each program that is updated. After that is done it will compile each one..... from there it will package each program for whatever distros I sup | 06:03 |
| shawkins | does that help at all? | 06:03 |
| yellowdart | i just found something quirky with kde3.5 ...i have dual monitors (nvidia 6600gt), and xinerama (instead of twinview).. I can drag windows back and forth across monitors fine, but icons only stay on #1...wierd | 06:03 |
| shawkins | odd | 06:04 |
| shawkins | but... personally... I like my icons on one window... you know, never thought to add a second monitor to this computer... I have a 17 inch only 10 feet from me unused | 06:04 |

| shawkins | restore? | 06:07 |
| shawkins | can you use su? | 06:07 |
| shawkins | or... | 06:07 |
| kkathman | shawkins: ahhh ok...much more involved than I thought | 06:07 |
| yellowdart | BUT...finally i can configure a different wallpaper on each monitor...so, it's worth the tradeoff of icons on only one monitor | 06:07 |
| shawkins | passwd root | 06:07 |
| shawkins | kkathman: yeah, just a little, lack of talk on my part, my bad | 06:07 |
| glick | anyone here familier with Oreilly books | 06:08 |
| glick | ? | 06:08 |
| shawkins | welll... 'sudo passwd root' | 06:08 |
| kkathman | shawkins: so that means you'll need to have some "database" of apps, then some RSS or other processing to flip a status to download or not.. | 06:08 |
| shawkins | kkathman correct | 06:08 |
| glick | http://blipp.com/pawal/artiklar/tcpipillustrated/tcpipillustrated.gif | 06:08 |
| glick | haha acheck that out its pecious | 06:08 |
| iantec | how do i check if it is still ok....but this is whats happening everytime i need to enter my password to run like for synaptic or other things thaty needs my pass it always says error with conversation with su and it says i have the wroong password but i do have the right password because i can use it before | 06:08 |
| kkathman | shawkins: then you would check to see if updates were available, and then download/compile through the list | 06:08 |
| yellowdart | shawkins: you can "su" without setting root password... 'sudo -i' | 06:08 |
| kkathman | shawkins: I'd say you should look into python probably to help out with this...a little more robust I'd say | 06:09 |
| enfact | i would look into python just for simplicity's sake | 06:09 |
| enfact | esp with text parsing that seems you will need to do much of | 06:09 |
| shawkins | katthman the guy I talked to about this, we exchanged some emails and he started me up.... he said after I got a prototype of everything setup he'd help me get funding for it...

| FunkyELF | I think I read somewhere that ubuntu has regular releases and will support their releases for a certain amount of time. Which releases are those? | 06:23 |
| FunkyELF | what is the latest release that is an offical supported release? | 06:23 |
| nalioth | FunkyELF: releases are every 6 months | 06:24 |
| FunkyELF | so 5.10? | 06:24 |
| nalioth | FunkyELF: depeding on the issue, there is a 18 to 60 month support window | 06:25 |
| nalioth | FunkyELF: 5.10 was released in october (10) 200(5) | 06:25 |

| FunkyELF | nalioth, I haven't decided which one I will install and wanted to get a feel for how similar they are | 06:26 |

| shawkins | the one thing I love about me.... the one reason I never had any troubles in math class.... I can remember stuff without even thinking about it... that url came to me a few days ago... never even used it though... just skimmed by it | 06:30 |
| specialbuddy | has anyone here used wine | 06:31 |
| nalioth | FunkyELF: this one does >>> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveCDCustomizationHowTo | 06:31 |
| shawkins | yes special | 06:31 |
| shawkins | specialbuddy: 'sudo apt-get install wine' | 06:31 |
| macd | has anyone seen a bug in kubuntu dapper when any program that does "save as" crashes that program | 06:32 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | apparently kubuntu doesnt like to install off a scratched up cd lol | 06:32 |
| specialbuddy | any idea on how to get rid of stuff that I already installed with wine | 06:32 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | it took 30 at the 6% mark then errored and i looked at the cd and it was covered in scratches lmao | 06:32 |
| iantec | thius accounts privileges are not working i mean when it come to actions that needs user passwords | 06:32 |
| shawkins | specialbuddy: I think.... delete the .wine directory in you home directory.. | 06:32 |
| specialbuddy | ok | 06:33 |
| shawkins | LinuxNIT-laptop: scratches aren't very good for CD's.... just in case you wanted to know :) | 06:33 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | lol i figured that out ;) | 06:33 |
| shawkins | specialbuddy: can't promise anything.. but I think thats where its all installed | 06:33 |
| FunkyELF | if I install 6.04 will I be able to get to the official release (when it comes out) without wiping out the entire system? | 06:34 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | didnt now they were there or else i woulndt have used it :) | 06:34 |
| specialbuddy | I just want to install starcraft and I did but when I go to play it, it says that it can't find the cd | 06:34 |
| iantec | is possible to create a public folder where every user can write and view at that folder? | 06:35 |
| shawkins | chmod 777 /folder | 06:35 |
| shawkins | chmod 777 ./folder.... | 06:36 |
| iantec | ic thanks | 06:36 |
| shawkins | or you could just... chmod 777 folder | 06:36 |
| shawkins | ... either way | 06:36 |
| shawkins | first one is wrong unless the folder is at the root of the file system... I think | 06:36 |
| macd | FunkyELF: yes you will just need to change your apt sources, and dist-upgrade thereafter | 06:37 |
| nalioth | shawkins: be careful giving chmod advice | 06:37 |
| shawkins | nalioth: ok, I'm guessing I should probably say what it does or? | 06:38 |
| shawkins | the bad parts about it.. | 06:38 |
| shawkins | something? | 06:38 |
| nalioth | shawkins: you should advise folks to not use it outside of their homedir and to be careful using it inside their homedir | 06:39 |
| shawkins | ok | 06:39 |
| nalioth | shawkins: the wrong permissions on files (even in your homedir) can cause your box to stop working) | 06:39 |
| shawkins | thanks, stuff like that you'll have to keep me on top of... I've never helped anyone through irc like this before :) | 06:39 |
| specialbuddy | how would I remove a directory such as /.wine | 06:40 |
| nalioth_zZz | shawkins: join me in #kubuntu-offtopic please | 06:40 |
| shawkins | I'm there | 06:40 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | where can i get a list of or read up on what numbers to use with chmod. the man didntseem to helpful | 06:41 |
| nalioth_zZz | LinuxNIT-laptop: ask the great google | 06:42 |
| shawkins | specialbuddy: I really don't know the exact risks of deleting that directory, however, 'rmdir .wine' should do it, procede at your own risk... I believe that directory contains the configuration files for your user, running winecfg after that should create a new set of config files | 06:42 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | tried guess i didnt ask him the right question :-/ | 06:42 |

| === sankarshan [n=sankarsh@220.227.211.249] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| LinuxNIT-laptop | so wierd | 06:58 |
| === sankarshan [n=sankarsh@220.227.211.249] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| yellowdart | LinuxNIT-laptop: it's actaully a security thing... | 06:58 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | how is that better? | 06:58 |
| yellowdart | LinuxNIT-laptop: os x does the same thing...you can accomplish any root task with sudo ('sudo -i' for a persistent login) | 06:59 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | how is that better? | 06:59 |
| yellowdart | LinuxNIT-laptop: because every linux system has a user 'root' so if it's disabled then they would have to guess your username and password to compromise your system | 06:59 |
| yellowdart | not just root's password | 07:00 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | then if there is more than one user the other if he didnt know so much could really screw things up | 07:00 |
| yellowdart | well, that's the thing with sudo...only users of a certain group are allowed to use it | 07:01 |
| yellowdart | usually 'wheel' | 07:01 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | ok | 07:01 |
| kkathman | and you dont know how much you miss sudo, until you dont have it :) | 07:02 |
| yellowdart | so, you can create other "non-admin" users that cannot change settings with sudo | 07:02 |
| kkathman | I hate having to su to a root account !!!!! | 07:02 |
| sampan | is this where i chime in with my little root slogan? | 07:02 |
| kkathman | go for it sampan :) | 07:02 |
| sampan | roots are for trees! save the trees! use sudo! | 07:02 |
| sampan | :X | 07:02 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | why once youhave su'd then you dont have to type sudo before every command | 07:02 |
| kkathman | hehe | 07:02 |
| yellowdart | hehe | 07:02 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | lol | 07:03 |
| yellowdart | LinuxNIT-laptop: su is like saying "log in as super user" | 07:03 |
| === aeon17x [n=aeon17x@210.5.97.58] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| LinuxNIT-laptop | yeah i know | 07:03 |
| kkathman | LinuxNIT-laptop: I personally believe that people think too much of their ability (nobody believes they are worse than they are) | 07:03 |
| kkathman | for THAT REASON ALONE, sudo should be the choice | 07:03 |
| === RickKnight [n=rick@knight-fw.rlknight.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| kkathman | because there is NO more dangerous thing, than an innept user with root priviledges | 07:03 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | yeah | 07:04 |
| yellowdart | LinuxNIT-laptop: plus with sudo, you only make a mistake if you DELIBERATLY WANT TO | 07:04 |
| yellowdart | yeah | 07:04 |
| kkathman | and who wants to keep toggling back and forth from their own name and root!! its a waste of time | 07:04 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | and not with su? | 07:04 |
| sampan | linuxnit there's a timeout on sudo -- if you're doing multiple commands it won't make you redo the pw every time. on top of that, you can use an option to have a persistent root session -- in short, you can do everything a root can do and have none of the risk | 07:04 |
| kkathman | sudo is very easy and almost 2nd nature | 07:04 |
| kkathman | besides, sudo is a much safer model and more robust | 07:04 |
| === mustard5 [n=mustard5@070.a.001.sop.iprimus.net.au] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| sampan | no risk of getting your su and non-su term mixed up | 07:05 |
| kkathman | exactly | 07:05 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | on more question | 07:05 |
| yellowdart | sampan: you can also configure sudo (really dangerous) to not need a password from certain users or groups as well | 07:05 |
| kkathman | people that su to root forget they are root and all of a sudden things arent set right | 07:05 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | if it stores the password woulndt that make it easier for some type of script virus to do damage? | 07:06 |
| sampan | yellowdart hahaha that sort of defeats the whole purpose -- but it's nice to know linux will obligingly let you shoot yourself in the foot! | 07:06 |
| kkathman | LinuxNIT-laptop: how many viruses have you seen on linux? | 07:06 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | kkathman, still havent done that one | 07:06 |
| kkathman | hehe.. me neither..as in ZERO | 07:07 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | personally i havent seen one yet but they do exist and its only time before the become more prevelant | 07:07 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | as linux grows so with the num of viruses | 07:07 |
| yellowdart | sampan: yeah, 'sudo visudo' is how you configure /etc/sudoers | 07:07 |
| kkathman | but there are precautions for that too anyway...like any other security issue | 07:07 |
| sampan | yellowdart with my luck i'd manage to bork the file trying to use vi ... :X | 07:07 |
| kkathman | yellowdart: I always think of Phil Collins Sussudio when someone says that | 07:07 |
| yellowdart | sampan: actually i think it's nano that it uses...not sure why it's 'visudo' but hey | 07:09 |
| yellowdart | kkathman: hehe | 07:09 |
| === Sebastian[1] [n=Sebastia@200.122.159.39] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| sampan | linuxnit, storing the timeout session is surely no more dangerous than having a terminal session logged in as root -- both sessions have admin rights, so if someone could hijack the sudo-time-out session they could hijack your root session too | 07:09 |
| sampan | but at least the sudo session EXPIRES automatically so you don't leave it up accidentally for days | 07:10 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | i dont leave root sessions logged in :) | 07:10 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | when im dont so are they :) | 07:10 |
| yellowdart | LinuxNIT-laptop: not that you're aware of at least... ;) | 07:10 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | dont = done | 07:10 |
| === Sebastian[1] [n=Sebastia@200.122.159.39] has left #kubuntu [] | ||
| sampan | but you -could- even without intending to (a phone call that interupts ...)! still the sudo is safer | 07:11 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | ok | 07:11 |
| yellowdart | sampan: 'man sudoers' shows you how to load your gun and aim at your foot... :) | 07:11 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | yesssssssssssss | 07:11 |
| sampan | hahahaha | 07:12 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | jsut what i want | 07:12 |
| LinuxNIT-laptop | ;) | 07:12 |
| sampan | yellowdart you sound like you're almost encouraging me to experiment -- tsk tsk! | 07:12 |
| sampan | ;) | 07:12 |
| yellowdart | sampan: well...how about "latent safety"...you can have sudo email you everytime you use it...so you can look back and remember :) | 07:13 |
| yellowdart | hehe | 07:14 |
| yellowdart | nice...i just saw that you can set sudo to insult you if you get the password wrong :) | 07:14 |
| macd | be nice to the typog god. | 07:16 |
| macd | typo* | 07:16 |
| sampan | only thing i would probably use in there would be to lower the timeout -- i almost never need 15 minutes in a row | 07:16 |
| sampan | but i'm not sure lowering that is worth having to fiddle with vi :/ | 07:17 |
| yellowdart | sampan: like i said...sudo visudo brings up nano for me...so it's pretty easy | 07:18 |
| sampan | ohhhhhhh ... i missed that ... is that default? or did you have to change a setting? | 07:19 |
| sampan | bah, comes up with vi for me | 07:20 |
| yellowdart | sampan: i have changed nothing | 07:20 |
| yellowdart | maybe it's the default "editor" | 07:20 |
| yellowdart | i know how to change that in gentoo.. but not ubuntu | 07:21 |
| yellowdart | sampan: what's so hard about vi anyhow :) | 07:24 |
| yellowdart | of course i like emacs way better myself | 07:24 |
| sampan | yellowdart it's probably not "hard" if i were to take the time to track down tutorials and command explanations, but since i'll almost never use it (not a programmer or techie), it's a rather large time expenditure just to change a file | 07:27 |
| yellowdart | sampan: well...there are really 4 things you have to remember... | 07:29 |
| yellowdart | 'i' lets you start writing (insert)...'esc' leaves insert mode... ':w" saves a file (non-insert mode) and ':q' quits vi (non-insert mode) | 07:30 |
| yellowdart | you can do :wq to write/quit | 07:31 |
| yellowdart | sampan: but true...it's hardly worth the effort of anything in-depth if you're not a programmer | 07:32 |
| yellowdart | plus not many programmers nowadays like to use vi or emacs...they all get caught up in their gui's :) | 07:33 |

| yellowdart | sampan: y'know...that earns you a new level of respect from me...not many non-programmers know the power of hotkeys :) | 07:37 |

| hubbadub | i have a question for you guys, what is the best Linux IRC client? | 08:35 |
| hubbadub | im specifically looking for something that will save my username/password in the bookmarks, which i cant fiqure out how to make konversation do | 08:35 |
| sampan | hubbadub you will get many different responses. really, it's all up to you and your tastes. xchat, konversation, irssi, bitchx, kvirc -- they all have their advocates | 08:36 |
| jariep1_ | how do I get mail can somebody help me with ddclient | 08:36 |
| jariep1_ | for dyndns | 08:36 |
| sampan | hubbadub in konversation, open up the server list, then click on the "default identity" for the server in question -- then you can hit "edit" and set up commands to auto-execute on connect | 08:37 |

| ilba7r | hydenesse, look for .deb rpm is for redhat based distro this is deb based one | 08:52 |
| hydenesse | it is the same with any other xmms? | 08:52 |

| ilba7r | hydenesse, do you use synaptic | 08:53 |
| ilba7r | hydenesse, i guess you use kubuntu so the package managers are adapet and kynaptic. launch them and search for the binary (program) or library you need | 08:54 |

| hydenesse | so are we free from depedencies??? | 08:58 |
| ilba7r | hydenesse, they are all linux. The diff is with the support you get till you learn linux. And with the ease of maintaining your os and packages | 08:59 |
| ilba7r | and in this ubuntu is really good | 08:59 |
| hydenesse | i usually use FC 3 and mandrake 9 | 09:00 |
| ilba7r | hydenesse, there are dependencies but are not a hastle like rpm. Debian is known for it superb package management. You can check these information on Distrowatch.com for comparison between diff distros and package managements | 09:00 |
| ilba7r | hydenesse, i come form suse and mandrake the transition will take some time but it was worth it for me | 09:01 |

| ilba7r | hydenesse, if you use the package management you forget about dependencies. If you do not use it you will take care of dependencies | 09:06 |
| sampan | hydenesse you can download it directly from http://packages.ubuntu.com ... to install then: dpkg -i package.name.here | 09:06 |

| hydenesse | what is the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu | 09:07 |
| hydenesse | ?? | 09:07 |
| sampan | the repos via package managers take care of all the dependencies for you - ubuntu is really designed as an online-OS in that way | 09:07 |
| hydenesse | u mean diskless? | 09:08 |
| sampan | after install, yes -- there's no need for a disk anymore (all the packages on the install disk are installed already) | 09:09 |

| hubbadub | i just noticed some new kernel headers were installed for me with apt-get upgrade, can anyone explain exactly what that is? | 09:21 |
| hubbadub | i mean how important are they? since it auto reconfigures grub, which is slightly irritating | 09:24 |
| ilba7r | hubbadub, most probably it is a security update. The image and headers are updated together | 09:25 |
| hubbadub | ok cool so its important then :D | 09:26 |
| ilba7r | yes i am installing it now and it is security update allright | 09:26 |
| hubbadub | is there away to avoid having kernel/header/image updates not alter my grub flags? | 09:26 |
| hubbadub | for instance my initng flag | 09:27 |
| ilba7r | hubbadub, sorry i do not know how to do that. I wish i knew though | 09:27 |
| ilba7r | by the way the image update change grub. the header is just the header c files you might need if you compile something | 09:28 |
| ilba7r | so they go together | 09:28 |
| ilba7r | ok need to reboot now to see if something is messed up in my grub too :) take care | 09:29 |

| ilba7r | hubbadub, how well the drivers work. I heared a lot of problems with them. Another reason i was scared not to install them | 09:42 |
| hubbadub | well, it made my fonts look pretty different for some reason | 09:43 |
| hubbadub | so i had to do a lot of readjusting there | 09:43 |

| hubbadub | well i followed the tutorial on the forums about 4 different times but it wasnt working for me, then just last week i tried a "modrobe rm fglx" , then added it again after reinstalling the drivers, and now it works perfectly | 09:45 |

| hubbadub | maybe a hour a week of Enemy territory, but its not a big deal to give that up to have stable video drivers | 09:47 |
| hubbadub | ive been thinking about selling my 9800 on ebay for about 70-80 bucks and getting a nvidia 6600gt for about 130 | 09:47 |
| hubbadub | i hear the nvidia drivers are head and shoulders better then ATI's | 09:48 |

| ubotu | I heard dapper drake is the 4th release for Ubuntu (ver. 6.04). For goals see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperGoals. To try without removing/breaking breezy see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot. see warnings !dapper | 11:10 |
| ilba7r | Phazeman, i would suggest the second approach if you just need to try it. this way you will not break breezy | 11:11 |

| Phazeman | ilba7r: you mean the chroot ? | 11:12 |
| ilba7r | yap | 11:12 |
| Phazeman | thanks much.. will try that... but i wanted to see all the new improvements in the GUI | 11:12 |
| Phazeman | like the updates icons and the new control panel and stuff | 11:12 |
| Phazeman | just interested to see it | 11:12 |
| ilba7r | Phazeman, this will show it all to you | 11:13 |

| Phazeman | ilba7r: i will try to get the chroot first... though, last time i've done this was with MDK 8.2.... will haev to clean the rust... | 11:15 |

| tomplast | oki thanks | 11:33 |
| tomplast | btw what is the best way to start programming in ubuntu/kubuntu? | 11:33 |
| tomplast | is it python? | 11:33 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: /j #ubuntu-translators | 11:34 |
| tomplast | ah :) | 11:34 |
| tomplast | thank you robotgeek :) | 11:34 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: not too many ppl in there :( | 11:35 |
| tomplast | :/ | 11:35 |
| tomplast | it sad | 11:35 |
| tomplast | but do you know anything about programming? | 11:35 |
| galorin | Does anyone in here have experience with sleep states? I'm trying to get suspend to disk and suspend to ram working. The system appears to go down fine, but coming back up is problematic. | 11:35 |
| galorin | tomplast, do you have any previous programming experience? | 11:36 |
| tomplast | hmm, C/C++, Assembly, basic | 11:36 |
| tomplast | but nothing advanced | 11:36 |
| tomplast | i think i have read that python is quite easy to learn and that ubuntu/kubuntu tries to focus more at python | 11:38 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: /j #kubuntu-offtopic | 11:38 |
| tomplast | why? | 11:38 |
| tomplast | i mean, programmings isnt such a offtopic :/ | 11:39 |
| tomplast | programming | 11:39 |
| tomplast | okioki | 11:39 |
| tomplast | bye | 11:39 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: not related to kubuntu support | 11:39 |
| tomplast | oki | 11:39 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: don't leave :) | 11:39 |
| tomplast | oki | 11:39 |
| tomplast | then i can ask for some more support then i guess :P | 11:39 |
| galorin | Assembl.. nothing advanced eh? LOL Anyhow, what sort of stuff do you want to program? If you want to do scripting, use whatever language the script needs. For more advanced programs, use whatever language would work best with the program. | 11:39 |
| tomplast | games galorin ;) | 11:40 |
| tomplast | have you tried dapper drake robotgeek? | 11:40 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: actually on it right now :) | 11:40 |
| tomplast | is it working good? | 11:40 |
| galorin | tomplast, 3d, 2d, text? | 11:40 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: i am on the live cd since 5 minutes | 11:40 |
| tomplast | galorin: 2d | 11:40 |
| tomplast | robotgeek: is the video-bug fixed? so that you can use webcams | 11:41 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: i like what i see till now | 11:41 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: no sure, you mean in kopete? | 11:41 |
| tomplast | robotgeek: yup an in amsn, it doesnt work anywhere. not for me anyway | 11:41 |
| robotgeek | tomplast: hmm, i am not sure. sorry don't have a webcam yet | 11:42 |
| tomplast | robotgeek: oh :(. but it isnt so nice when your whole system freezes as soon as you want to use your webcam :/ | 11:42 |
| galorin | If you've got C experience, go with that, and maybe hit happypenguin.org, and look at the projects there. You can get access to source code for loads of the games, and see what they use, and how they use it. | 11:42 |
| tomplast | galoring: thanks :). then I have something todo tody :P | 11:42 |

| seashell11 | jimbo read the page that the bot gave you, it will tell you why not to log in as root | 05:08 |
| thompa | Blippe: x out and in again after that | 05:08 |
| jimb0 | i know the basic reason | 05:08 |
| jimb0 | you can fuck stuff up | 05:08 |
| Blippe | ok! | 05:08 |
| seashell11 | if you are logged in as root you can very easily change things without your knowlecge that will break your system | 05:08 |

| seashell11 | it always works good | 10:12 |
| shawkins | I read a thing on the filesystem benchmarks... but never figured it mattered much for me... don't need a blazing system, works fine how it is | 10:12 |
| kkathman | the newer distros all use that reiserfs | 10:12 |
| Red_Herring | plus, you can get drivers for windows to Read and write to ext3 | 10:12 |
| kkathman | SUSE does :( | 10:12 |
| kkathman | oh well | 10:12 |
| shawkins | yeah, linspire I think uses reiserfs | 10:12 |
| _buz | reiser is about the worst fs ever | 10:12 |
| Red_Herring | not at all | 10:13 |
| _buz | best way to lose data ever | 10:13 |
| kkathman | lol | 10:13 |
| Red_Herring | well... at least its fast | 10:13 |
| _buz | i tried it 3 times | 10:13 |
| _buz | every single time it corrupted the whole fs in less than a month | 10:13 |
| shawkins | I never tried anything but ext2 and ext3... | 10:13 |
| kkathman | my SUSE works fine on reiserfs, just wasnt my choice | 10:13 |
| shawkins | but ext2 was... years back | 10:13 |
| _buz | besides, xfs doesnt care if i trip over powercords | 10:13 |
| _buz | much less than ext3 anyway | 10:14 |
| Red_Herring | no, ext3 doenst care either | 10:14 |
| Red_Herring | not that i noticed at least | 10:14 |
| kkathman | ext3 doesnt seem to care | 10:14 |
| shawkins | for whatever reason SUSE won't install on my system.. once it gets done with the first CD it reboots instead of taking in another CD.... not no shutdown then reboot either... just ups and restarts without doing anything | 10:14 |
| _buz | last time i had to wait for an ext3 server to boot thru i didnt find it didnt care | 10:14 |
| _buz | took it >3min to fsck a 120gb volume | 10:14 |
| kkathman | shawkins: but its supposed to do that :) | 10:14 |
| kkathman | it DOES restart after the first CD, continues and asks for more CDs | 10:14 |
| _buz | mhh removing all linux-images and reinstallling the current seems to have helped with lilo | 10:15 |
| shawkins | kkathman: well I'm glad someone told me..... I figured it'd do what the rest do...... never had that happen before, odd.... | 10:15 |
| _buz | now i just pray it will boot next time i try it | 10:15 |
| _buz | better burn that dapper flight 3 iso before reboot ;) | 10:15 |
| kkathman | shawkins: nope...its a bit odd...I just did SUSE last week... 10.0 and thats what it did | 10:15 |
| Red_Herring | its nice | 10:15 |
| kkathman | it actually boots a couple of times | 10:15 |
| Red_Herring | im using dapper drake flight 3 live cd now | 10:15 |
| _buz | does Exa work now? | 10:15 |
| Red_Herring | my laptop has apparently been on 2 days | 10:16 |
| Red_Herring | Exa? | 10:16 |
| kkathman | Red_Herring: Im considering adding Dapper soon | 10:16 |
| Red_Herring | just do the livecd | 10:16 |
| kkathman | that way I'll have a triple boot system :) | 10:16 |
| shawkins | kkathman: I got the CD's for it right here.... just never cared to go farther after it rebooted like it did... I decided to screw it and popped in my slackware CD and installed grub again | 10:16 |
| seashell11 | kkathman: I already switched to dapper on one of my computers :-P | 10:16 |
| Red_Herring | why use dapper? | 10:16 |
| shawkins | kkatham: I'm on dapper right now, works fine for me.... | 10:16 |
| Red_Herring | well | 10:17 |
| Red_Herring | as a primary os anyway | 10:17 |
| shawkins | red_herring: I just like the lastest and greatest :) | 10:17 |
| _buz | i got burnt with an early version of breezy on my workstation | 10:17 |
| xwolf- | seashell11 no change, vmware still runs with 640x480 | 10:17 |
| Red_Herring | how stable is it? | 10:17 |
| shawkins | it is my primary os.. | 10:17 |
| _buz | wont go to dapper until it's beta | 10:17 |
| kkathman | seashell11: yah Im playin around with breezy and suse right now, I'll put up dapper later | 10:17 |
| shawkins | I'd say stable enough to use.. | 10:17 |
| Red_Herring | well, how much use are we talking | 10:17 |
| shawkins | red_herring: I'm trusting it with all my files... one sec phone | 10:17 |
| kkathman | Flight3 I hear is pretty usable unless you are ppc | 10:17 |
| Red_Herring | the livecd works fine | 10:17 |
| Red_Herring | useless? | 10:18 |
| Red_Herring | as in not working? | 10:18 |
| kkathman | problems on ppc I hear | 10:18 |
| Red_Herring | it wont boot using ppc | 10:18 |
| kkathman | no it boots | 10:18 |
| Red_Herring | really? | 10:18 |
| kkathman | just has some display probs and driver issues I think | 10:18 |
| Red_Herring | thats not what the release said | 10:18 |
| Red_Herring | huh | 10:18 |
| kkathman | Nalioth had some issues on his ppc | 10:18 |
| Red_Herring | well, i do have to say that the live cd REALLY SHOULD ship w/ synaptics drivers pre-installed | 10:19 |
| nalioth | ussyes> | 10:19 |
| nalioth | issues? | 10:19 |
| Red_Herring | because DAMN THIS TOUCHPAD IS SLOW | 10:19 |
| kkathman | nalioth: dapper on ppc | 10:19 |
| Red_Herring | it takes me 5 or 6 times across the entire touchpad to move from one side of the screen to the other | 10:19 |
| kkathman | nalioth: relating your difficulties the other night | 10:19 |
| kkathman | Red_Herring: big screen? | 10:19 |
| kkathman | hehe | 10:20 |
| Red_Herring | not at all | 10:20 |
| Red_Herring | 1024x768 | 10:20 |
| kkathman | jk | 10:20 |
| nalioth | dapper 3 works. it is functional if not acceptable | 10:20 |
| Red_Herring | im not sure | 10:20 |
| kkathman | nalioth: but you did experience some display issues yes? | 10:20 |
| nalioth | yes there were display issues | 10:20 |
| kkathman | ok | 10:20 |
| Red_Herring | a bunch of the programs on the livecd crash when doing odd things | 10:20 |
| nalioth | but since i can run console they did not bother me | 10:21 |
| shawkins | kkathman: don't know what was said..... but ... dapper is working great on my computer | 10:21 |
| nalioth | ubotu: tell Red_Herring about malone | 10:21 |
| shawkins | kkathman: don't know why I pointed that to you though.. | 10:21 |
| nalioth | Red_Herring: visit that site and file bugs | 10:21 |
| Red_Herring | ok | 10:21 |

| divansantana | pgrep adept and kill it | 10:52 |
| _grigory | pgrep? | 10:52 |
| yellowdart | _grigory: you should use kpackage anyhow :) | 10:53 |
| divansantana | Samout, kubuntu/ubuntu is set up to disable root because its better/safer in a way... | 10:53 |

| yellowdart | xfce4 | 10:57 |
| divansantana | why u dont like how kde looks by default? | 10:57 |

| Red_Herring | divansantana: i think its just ugly | 10:57 |

| Syuusuke | ah ok | 11:57 |
| lebomb | I don't see any advantages in using it | 11:57 |
| _grigory | :) haha... cant call myself a geek, just doesnt work... for me geek is not someone who does rugby at school, mountain biking whole summer long... but i do take all the math courses thoug, geo, calculus, data management.. fun | 11:57 |
| Syuusuke | if you have nothing to hide then sure ;) | 11:58 |

| _grigory | ... | 11:58 |
| lebomb | i am a geek, i competition sports, workout, etc | 11:58 |
| lebomb | and make a lot of money | 11:58 |
| _grigory | i actually used to spend days in front of the computer | 11:58 |
| _grigory | maybe a year ago | 11:58 |
| _grigory | then i figured its a waste of time | 11:59 |
| _grigory | unless u do something productive | 11:59 |
| lebomb | I can do amazing things with computers | 11:59 |
| _grigory | so i started to learn ASP, VB, then eventually .NET | 11:59 |
| Red_Herring | and mountain biking IS productive? | 11:59 |
| _grigory | YES | 11:59 |
| lebomb | lol | 11:59 |
| Red_Herring | just as productive as rugby | 12:00 |
| Red_Herring | and baseball | 12:00 |
| _grigory | a bit more then that | 12:00 |
| am | hah did i just here amazing go along with ASP and VB ? | 12:00 |
| Red_Herring | one, you use your head, one, you use your mind | 12:00 |
| lebomb | it is productive because it satisfies ones self | 12:00 |
| lebomb | doesn't matter what it is | 12:00 |
| lebomb | might be watching paint dry | 12:00 |
| _grigory | am: whats wrong with ASP and VB? :) | 12:00 |

| _grigory | REd: you should try mountain biking! there's lots of types of it though - dirt jumping, urban, downhill racing, biker-cross, freeride... | 12:01 |
| Red_Herring | oh yeah, in my town! | 12:01 |
| Red_Herring | middle of suburbia | 12:02 |
| Red_Herring | in ILLINOIS | 12:02 |
| am | _grigory: ok where would you like me to start...the spaghetti code it produces, the lack of optimizations, the poor coding practises it encourages, the memory leaks ? | 12:02 |
| lebomb | the bills it pays | 12:02 |
| Red_Herring | there is no MOUNTAIN, or HILL for that matter for at least 300 miles | 12:02 |
