SuperNovaHi12:13
SuperNovawhats the major difference between Gnome and KDE (ubuntu vs kubuntu)12:13
Red_Herringstarhawk: look under desktop --> spash screen12:13
starhawkI would of thought sounds and multimedia but not there eather12:13
tristanmikeSuperNova, too many differences to list here12:13
Red_HerringSuperNova: not much in the way of anything but one uses kde and oen uses gnome12:14
Red_Herringbut as far as those differences go...12:14
starhawkin a terminal12:14
tristanmikeSuperNova, but basically KDE is super-flashy, and Gnome is super-stable12:14
Red_Herringits too long to go on12:14
Red_Herringstarhawk: no, in systemsettings12:14
SuperNovaread that KDE isnt as "free" as gnome... does this mean its not free?12:14
Red_Herringno12:15
Red_Herringall are open source12:15
SuperNovaokey12:15
Red_Herringthats not true, kde is 100% open source12:15

Red_HerringSuperNova: not at all, kubuntu also takes pride in being 100% free12:17
Red_Herringwe just dont flash that around12:17
Red_Herringits a given12:17
SuperNovaokey12:17
tristanmikeSuperNova, just search "kubuntu-desktop" in Synaptic and install, piece of cake12:17
Red_Herringthat is, if he is using ubuntu now12:18
tristanmikeSuperNova, I actually was a little leary on installing KDE but I did, and I don't regret it at all12:18
Red_Herringhow is xubuntu12:18
Red_Herringi have installled it on a very old laptop12:18
SuperNovai have never used linux before... thought i should give unbunto a try but then i saw kubuntu and now i cant decide :p12:18
Red_Herringbut i cant tell if its very different12:18
Red_HerringSuperNova: you can do both12:18
Red_Herringjust install ubuntu12:18
Red_Herringand add kubuntu to it12:18
Red_Herringyou can change between gnome and kde at login12:19
SuperNovais there any other differences betweed ubuntu and kubuntu? i mean does the same software come with booth?12:19
Red_Herringessentially12:19
tristanmikeSuperNova, you can interchange all the software12:19
Red_Herringjust some gnome tools are replaced with kde tools12:19
Red_Herringbut everything else is the same12:20
tristanmikeSuperNova, but to really "see" the differences, you just gotta try it12:20
tristanmikeSuperNova, install both Ubuntu and Kubuntu and switch sessions when ever you want12:20
Red_Herringi gotta say, kubuntu looks SOOOOO much better...12:20
Red_Herringthats just me12:20
SuperNovai have leant that linux requires (or you should use) a separate partiton for swap files is that correct?12:20
Red_Herringyeah12:21
SuperNovarecomended size for swap part?12:21
Red_Herringbut the ubuntu/kubuntu installer can take care of that for you12:21
tristanmikeSuperNova, twice your RAM12:21
Red_Herringit reccomends 2x your ram12:21
Red_Herringdamn tristanmike, beat me to it12:21
SuperNova2GB12:21
Red_Herring2gb of ram or swap?12:22
tristanmikeSuperNova, if you're have 1GB of RAM, you should only need about 750 megs12:22
tristanmikeof swap that is12:22
Red_Herringif ya have 2gb of ram, ya dont need much of a swap space at all12:22
SuperNovai know that the install can reformat/repart a NTFS partition to a sawp+main (ext3) but is there any way to reformat ext3 to ntfs?12:22
Red_Herringusing windows12:22
tristanmikeno, NTFS is strictly windows12:23
Red_Herringbut linux cannot write ntfs12:23
SuperNovaokey so its possible12:23
tristanmikeJust like you can't have a Windows Ext3 fs12:23
Red_Herringthank your good old freind m$ for that one?12:23
Red_Herringwhy is there a "?" at the end of that?12:23
=== Red_Herring is going crazy
SuperNovabtw is there any chance that my other partitions on my harddrive can get damaged wten i repart/reformats one of them to Ext3?12:23
Red_Herringtristanmike: not true12:23
Red_Herringi can r/w to my ext3 partition under windows easy12:24
tristanmikeRed_Herring, you're saying Windows can be formated to Ext3?12:24
Red_Herringwell.. not installed to it12:24
Red_Herringbut with drivers you can interact with ext3 partitions12:24
tristanmikethat's what I meant, you can't have a Windows in ext3, but I am aware that you can interact with Linux12:24
Red_Herringbut in terms of re-formatting and keeping data... no, ya cant12:25

sampandjdarkman  there is a preference setting in firestarter for "start on boot" and/or "start when internet connection is brought up"12:30
tristanmikeSuperNova, most of my time is spent on Ubuntu, but Kubuntu is very pretty. I really only use Ubuntu becasue it is different than windows, Kubuntu feels more like windows but better12:31
=== jbzz_ [n=keithj@24.239.210.168] has joined #kubuntu
sampandjdarkman  in case you're a new user coming from windows, though.  firestarter is mainly a front-end for iptables -- the app does NOT stay running by default.  it writes the set of rules for iptables and then exits.  those rules, once in written, function as your firewall.12:31
SuperNovawhile im at it.... when i download a oftware for linux do i have to compile it (if, HOW?) or is it just - klick on the icon and folow the instructions?12:32
=== humboldt [n=hugo@toronto-HSE-ppp4071222.sympatico.ca] has joined #kubuntu
HeadUp`tin mais ya que des cons ce soir12:33
tristanmikeSuperNova, pretty much anything you could ever want is in the repos, so just install through Synaptic. That software is tested thoroughly and is known to work and is supported but other stuff you may need to compile from source, some you can install like our beloved "exe" and some come in nice, neat little packages12:34
tristanmikeSuperNova, it's best if you give an application as an example12:34
SuperNovatristanmike i assume that you are going to need codecs and mediaplayers... mediaplayer classic for example12:35
DjDarkmansampan: i`ve heard that firestarter also alerts when someones "probing" me12:35
Red_Herring!w32codecs12:35
ubotufrom memory, w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install12:35
tristanmikeSuperNova, yes, but they're all there. A quick look through the wiki will help you get them installed12:35
Red_Herring!win32codecs12:36
ubotu[win32codecs]  binary only codecs that some call evil., and they're available from http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/12:36
sampandjdarkman  yes. if you leave it running, in the system tray, it will do so. The icon will go to red and flash once.  I found it pretty annoying and not worth the effort.  It's doing it's job even when it's not running.12:36
SuperNovasynaptic what is that? doe it come with k/ubuntu?12:36
tristanmikeSuperNova, Synaptic is the magical program that installs everything for you so you don't have to12:37
SuperNovatristanmike okey... is it free? the software it installs is free?12:37
tristanmikeSuperNova, yeah it's free, everything that comes with Ubuntu is free, that's part of it's philosophy12:38
DjDarkmanyes but sampan if someone tries to scan me ,i would be happy to ban his host12:38
dark_suicSuperNova, if you have kubuntu 5.10, then adept is your friend12:38
dark_suicadept is almost the same as synaptic, but with kde look :)12:38
tristanmikeSuperNova, don't listen to dark_suic , adept is inept12:39
dark_suicit's just some kind of "install and remove programs" from windows, but this time DOES work for installing :)12:39
SuperNovatristanmike i menat if i want a mediaplayer and gts one through synaptic is the mdiaplayer free or can i get software that i have to pay for through synaptic?12:39
sampandjdarkman  you'll be spending a lot of time banning then.  i was getting 400-500 "hits" a day, sometimes several hundred an hour :)  that's a lot of time looking through logs-- but suit yourself.12:39
=== luizcarcerelli [n=luizcarc@c9253350.rjo.virtua.com.br] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation]
tristanmikeSuperNova, well, both Ubuntu and Kubuntu come with their own media players by default but yes, there are others and they are all free. Anything that you install from Ubuntu is 100% free as in beer12:40
=== noirequus is now known as nalioth
sampanmmmm free beer12:40
SuperNovahehe12:40
DjDarkmanhmmm so youre saying that it`s best to leave it running in the background?12:41
SuperNovai have noticed that gnome has 2 "bars" one at the top and one at the bottom.... kde only has one (as windows)... is there any special feats of having two?12:41
tristanmikeSuperNova, nothing but choice, the means fit the ends12:41
tristanmikeSuperNova, basically they just take two paths to get to the same location, so to speak12:42
sampandjdarkman  for me it was. thing is, it doesn't need to "run in the background" at all.  it ONLY writes the iptables rules and then, because linux kernel has ip routing built-in, you're firewalled.12:42
SuperNovais there any difference (other that looks) between KDE and gnome?12:42
tristanmikeSuperNova, Kubuntu is more for my mom, more comfortable doing things the "windows-way"12:43
DjDarkmanby default what rules does it write?12:43
tristanmikeSuperNova, they are completely different yet very much the same12:43
=== omri [n=omri@85-64-225-231.barak-online.net] has joined #kubuntu
SuperNovai mean is one faster than the other or so?12:43
sampandjdarkman  so after it writes the rules for iptables, there's nothing left for it to do (unless of course you want to see the ip's for all the boxes that are scanning you -- 99% are windows boxes scanning for win services). the default rules are permissive OUTGOING and NOTHING incoming.12:43
=== neurolunatic [n=neurolun@96-106.echostar.pl] has joined #kubuntu
omrihello12:44
tristanmikeSuperNova, I'd say Ubuntu is faster than Kubuntu, but I don't really notice a difference12:45
tristanmikeSuperNova, Kubuntu is really cutting edge, in my opinion, Ubuntu is less flashy12:45
sampandjdarkman but honestly, unless you're running servers (mail, ftp, http, etc.) you don't even need a firewall at all: by default ubuntu is not listening for any external packets and it will just ignore them anyway12:45
SuperNovatristanmike KDE looks a bit nicer but if ubuntu has som other feats that would make it a better choise?12:45
tristanmikeSuperNova, Install both =)12:45
DjDarkmanwell i`m running an apache and a mysql server12:46
tristanmikethey won't conflict with one another12:46
SuperNovai mean a nice desktop doesnt cover performance, and how easy its to use12:46
=== sampan seconds tristanmike's suggestion for supernova: install both and try them out and pick the one that appeals to you most
Daddy_DIt's good to hear what people think about the distributions. I was planning on starting with Kubunut as a desktop as soon as I get my DVD writer. I understand what you mean "more for my mom", but does it mean it's a bad thing to start learning linux with Kubuntu?12:46
SuperNovatristanmike first time in linux, might be better to get used to one first :p12:46
Daddy_DSo far my choice is on Slackware and Kubuntu and I made my choice based on the popularity and user support from both partys12:47
SuperNovadoes software come in different versions for KDE and gnome?12:47
sampandjdarkman  then it might be wise.  firestarter is a good choice in that you can use it to write iptables rules (without having to learn iptables yourself).  and you can change the rules "on the fly"12:47
tristanmikeSuperNova, again, they are both pretty easy to use, Kubuntu is more for those who don't want too much of a difference in how they do things compared to windows, and Ubuntu is more for those who want different12:47

Daddy_DHey Supernova, I suggest you install linux before askin questions as such and actually try all the stuff you are asking about.12:48

sampansupernova  both those will be exactly alike in the end.  the installs are same and you'll end out with the same packages.01:14
Daddy_DRaiser FS or EXT 3?01:14
tristanmikeSuperNova, if you have just the basic Ubuntu installer, you should just go through the standard install, then install Kubuntu after01:15
Red_Herringthats my vote01:15
SuperNovatristanmike i menat how to install kubuntu afterwards.....01:15
sampansupernova  once you've installed one, then installing the other is as simple as: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ... or sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop  ... it's THAT easy01:15
Red_Herringso score: ubuntu + kde: 2, kubuntu + gnome: 001:16
tristanmikeSuperNova, if you're running on Ubuntu now, search in Synaptic for "kubuntu-desktop" click yes, then apply01:16
sampanit's just a SINGLE console command01:16
SuperNovasampan so its a software that omes with ubuntu? just start the software and brows for kde?01:16
Red_Herringeasier01:16
Red_Herringjust search for kubuntu-desktop01:16
Red_Herringinstall that01:16
tristanmikeSuperNova, use "Synaptic Package Manager"01:16
SuperNovaokey01:17
Red_Herringand thats the official kubuntu package01:17
SuperNovaokey nice01:17
sampansupernova, it's software that's in the repositories, which you can install via synaptic/adept ... or via the commandline (console).  both work exactly the same.01:17
tristanmikeSuperNova, exactly what sampan said, you might want to stick with Synaptic untill you get used to working your way around01:17

fatejudgeror at least I can't find it05:24

ownerubotu tell fatejudger about ati05:26
gammawhich one is the one that's updated a lot?05:26
gammadapper?05:26
owneryes05:27
ownerbut you can still use kde 3.5 with breezy05:27
fatejudgerowner: I already know abotu that guide05:27
gammayea that's what i'm doing now05:27
fatejudger*about05:27
fatejudgerowner: that guide doesn't apply to Dapper05:27
fatejudgerowner: the driver is different in Dapper05:27
gammacan i switch to dapper from breezy? like just put the repositories in and update everything?05:27
fatejudgergamma: doubt it05:28
ownerfatejudger in fact its even possible to convert the fglrx rpm to a deb file05:28
ownerthats what the kanotix script does for ati drivers05:28
fatejudgerfirst of all, rpms to deb is bad05:28
fatejudgerthat causes some package breakage05:28
fatejudgerespecially with a package as critical as the ATI drivers05:28
fatejudgersecond, something like that will break Dapper05:28
fatejudgerit needs to work with the current implementation05:29
fatejudgerI just wish that Riddell was on or something05:29
ownerit doesnt break dapper05:29
ownerbut it depends if you are using xorg 6.9 or kernel 2.6.1505:29
ownerbecause they both have problems with ati fglrx drivers05:29
ownercheck out the rage3d forums in linux section05:30
fatejudgerit says that I have the "ati" driver installed right now05:31
ownerthats not the same as fglrx05:31
ownerati is the open source version05:32

GnumaticHey folks, I borked X trying to update Hoary to Breezy by first changing the references in /etc/apt/sources.list from hoary to breezy and then trying 'apt-get dist-upgrade'.  I got some error messages and tried messing with the a couple of sources.list and doing various versions of 'apt-get -f godonlyknows' (well, 'dist-upgrade', upgrade, --fix-missing, etc).  I'm missing some 'font fixed', apparently, and a number of things have06:51
GnumaticAnyone suggest a vanilla sources.list that might rescue my buns or should I just bite the bullet and reinstall from scratch with a breezy CD?06:52
Tm_TGnumatic: no, just backup your xorg.conf and run "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" or something like that06:52

kehermanrobotgeek, if they select Gnome later on, I dont care -- as long as when this new lab is up and running for the first logins -- they are using KDE and not Gnome08:36

dbgltpablet: it may not, in fact, be all in use10:58
dbgltfirefox however, is a notorious leaker10:59
dbgltpablet: the way ram is allocated is often for a read ahead buffer or such: I doubt all of it is in use10:59
pableti have seen the used memory with top and ksysguard10:59
dbglttop is not reliable10:59
dbgltneither is ksysguard10:59
dbgltpablet: google search a bit for this. Just because it is shown as used, does not mean it is11:00
dbgltthe only time you should worry about ram, is when you start slowing down due to lack thereof11:00
dbgltbut as I said, I doubt it is all in use11:00
pabletwhen you close programs in linux, the memory is freed then or what?11:00
pabletor it frees the memory of a program on demand?11:01
dbgltpablet: it really all depends. There are a lot of shared libraries, such as QT and the kdelibs11:01
dbgltpablet: as many linux programs are quite modular11:01
dbgltpablet: the memory associated with that program is most likely freed11:01
dbgltbut you really should not be concerned, especially not with top's reporting, in regards to memory usage11:02
pableti have read that qt 4 will obtain better ram consumption (about 20-30%)....11:02
pabletpossible?11:02
dbgltyes11:02
dbgltit is very possible11:03
pableti think its a very high percentage11:03
dbgltqt and kde are looking a lot at cleaning up code, and efficiency saving measures11:03
dbgltperhaps, perhaps not. A lot is quite subjective. It depends what you get in terms of features, responsiveness, etc.11:03
pableti think everyone is waiting for plasma11:03
dbgltI believe QT does a pretty damn good job as it is11:03
dbgltplasma should be most interesting11:03

hugelmopfit's a very neat little video player for kde11:21

pabletalthough its buggy and it has to become better in usability and eye candy11:22
hugelmopfcodeine uses xine as well11:23
hugelmopfbut i don't watch dvd's on my laptop a lot, so i can't talk about its dvd features11:24

ijamadari want to patch patch-2.6.15-ck2.bz2 to mm-fix_kswapd_inherit_prio.patch????01:12
ijamadarwhts the commands01:12
snowowlReally simple question I suppose. Why when I click on a link in Mozilla Thunderbird it does nothing insted of opening that link in firefox.01:13
thoreauputicdbglt: that's unlikely to happen - what sort of program would do that in linux? Without being told to?01:13
