| Stele | whats the diff between that and "dist-upgrade"? | 12:45 |
| dark_suic | meple, it doesn't happen here... | 12:45 |
| Stele | something is horribly wrong with my nvidia driver and Im hoping an update will fix it | 12:45 |
| dark_suic | well, the diference is that dist-upgrade resolves dependencies and upgrade (it's supposed) that just updates your packages | 12:46 |
| Stele | a | 12:46 |
| Stele | ah | 12:46 |
| dark_suic | what happens to your nvidia drivers? | 12:46 |
| Stele | i will try that | 12:46 |
| Stele | well i got the latest NV driver to install, but when I start kdm, i get a blank screen, with a cursor bar in the top-left corner, and a white filled area at bottom | 12:46 |
| Stele | and the entire dispay hangs | 12:46 |
| dark_suic | O__o | 12:47 |
| dark_suic | you got the nv driver from the nvidia webpage? | 12:47 |
| Stele | yeah | 12:47 |
| Stele | the latest 81 something | 12:47 |
| Stele | i needed to update my kernel-includes from -9 to -10 for some reason | 12:47 |
| dark_suic | well, i told meple some minutes ago how to install the official driver from ubuntu directly :P | 12:48 |

| dark_suic | that should work, but if you installed the other drivers it may not work... | 12:48 |
| Stele | will try that after i update | 12:48 |
| Stele | does that have an updated xorg.conf too? | 12:49 |
| dark_suic | ok | 12:49 |
| dark_suic | nvidia-glx-config enable updates your xorg.conf :) | 12:49 |
| Stele | i think what happened is it is updating the kubuntu driver package over the old nvidia driver which I manually installed | 12:49 |
| Stele | that must have happened in the past few weeks, automatically | 12:49 |
| meple | sudo apt-get update. does this update all the programs on your system? | 12:50 |

| dark_suic | its impossible to get network running on it | 01:21 |

| Knowerrors | I need help getting my dvd drive dma settings to stick, I followed the advice here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA?highlight=%28dma%29, still turns off after reboot, help please | 01:21 |
| Red_Herring | i "got" a nice wireless card | 01:22 |
| Red_Herring | and it works FINE | 01:22 |
| dark_suic | meple, if kopete doesn't work just try gaim... | 01:22 |
| meple | gaim gotcha. thx | 01:22 |
| dark_suic | Red_Herring, the wireless could work, i don't know, but i have no wireless connection... no one has it even near my home U__U | 01:22 |
| Red_Herring | oh | 01:22 |
| Red_Herring | that sucks | 01:22 |
| dark_suic | now i have debian installed because there the network works | 01:22 |
| Red_Herring | my neighborhood has all the flashy wireless things | 01:22 |
| dark_suic | but when i got the wifi working, the ethernet card got "broken" | 01:23 |
| dark_suic | and now i don't have network again :P | 01:23 |
| Red_Herring | hmmm | 01:23 |
| dark_suic | i would like to have wireless things around me... | 01:23 |
| Red_Herring | for some reason my ethernet card only works with my old router | 01:23 |
| Red_Herring | it was wierd | 01:23 |
| Red_Herring | so now i use it as a gateway to the router | 01:23 |
| Red_Herring | and everything works fine | 01:23 |
| dark_suic | well, i don't have a router, or better said, MY computer is the router :P | 01:23 |
| dark_suic | ethernet worked until i configured the wifi connection | 01:24 |
| dark_suic | then it stopped working | 01:24 |
| Red_Herring | are there any other computers on the network? | 01:24 |
| dark_suic | it's like internet was trying to go just through the wireless | 01:24 |
| dark_suic | yep | 01:24 |

| dark_suic | im not sure about what i'm saying, but it should work... O__o | 02:11 |
| Red_Herring | it told me that data was still on teh partition, and it stopped | 02:11 |

| === LoneCanuk2 is now known as LoneCanuk | ||

| dark_suic | probably :P | 02:13 |

| dark_suic | nevermind | 02:13 |
| dark_suic | well, Red_Herring i understand what you told, but then... | 02:13 |
| dark_suic | why is the non-format option still in the installer? | 02:13 |
| Red_Herring | because it can also be used to re-install grub | 02:14 |

| Lord_Athur | Red_Herring, i saw the file on the disk partiotion | 03:47 |
| Red_Herring | hmmmm | 03:47 |

| Bicchi | i need some help with chroot. i allready read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot but i still got questions. anyone has experience with chroot and amd64 | 03:51 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 03:51 |
| Red_Herring | its hell | 03:51 |
| Red_Herring | i just switched to x86 | 03:51 |
| Bicchi | so should i bother installing it or it does not work. | 03:51 |
| Red_Herring | depends how much ya need it | 03:52 |
| Lord_Athur | Red_Herring, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7671 | 03:52 |
| Bicchi | what do you mean | 03:52 |
| Red_Herring | thats an odd one | 03:53 |
| Red_Herring | sorry, i gotta run | 03:53 |
| dark_suic | i did the same as Red_Herring, Bicchi | 03:54 |
| dark_suic | Bicchi, if you're using lots of 32bits programms every day, then switch | 03:55 |
| Bicchi | and if i only have one | 03:55 |
| dark_suic | if you'd just use a 32 bit program once each week, it would be better to chroot | 03:55 |
| Bicchi | ok here is my question | 03:56 |
| dark_suic | but think | 03:56 |
| dark_suic | that you may need some more programs for 32bits later (wine for example) | 03:56 |
| Bicchi | after i follow all those steps in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot do i need to install kde for 32 bits for my app to work. | 03:56 |
| Bicchi | i have a 32 bit linux application that does not exist for amd64 | 03:57 |
| === `Nomad is now known as `Nomad_Away | ||
| dark_suic | the same happened to me (cedega and wine) | 03:58 |
| dark_suic | and as flash player isn't still developed for 64 bits | 03:58 |
| dark_suic | and that sort of things | 03:58 |
| dark_suic | i finally left 64 bits and am using now 32 bits... | 03:58 |
| Bicchi | well, i do not care for windows applications so wine is not important, but like i said its a 32bit linux application that i need to run | 03:58 |
| dark_suic | i don't know if you need to install kde after it... | 03:59 |
| dark_suic | just try | 03:59 |
| dark_suic | what kind of app is it? | 03:59 |
| Bicchi | i do not want to mess up my installation with a lot junk | 03:59 |
| Bicchi | www.yamipod.com | 03:59 |
| Bicchi | to controll the ipod under linux | 03:59 |
| dark_suic | ok | 04:00 |

| dbglt | mase_: have you access to any form of live cd ? | 04:01 |
| dbglt | mase_: or download one | 04:01 |
| mase_ | well i have the install cd | 04:01 |

| dbglt | does that give you a usable prompt? | 04:01 |

| dark_suic | i don't know at all, (although i may get pissed off because of this, i kind of hate ipods :P) | 04:02 |
| dbglt | ok, if you can get to a prompt, mount your kubuntu install to a directory, chroot to that directory, then do grub-install /dev/wherevermyhardrive is | 04:02 |
| Bicchi | dark_suic: so i am swiching back to windows when i need to manage the ipod | 04:02 |
| igorayeb | Good night anyone can help me plase | 04:02 |
| dark_suic | well, you can use vmware ... if it's for 64 bits :P | 04:02 |
| dark_suic | you can use vmware to install a windows INTO linux | 04:02 |
| Bicchi | dark_suic: is it free | 04:02 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | yeah, like i did | 04:02 |
| dbglt | so for me, that's mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 ; chroot /mnt/hda3 ; grub-install /dev/hda | 04:02 |
| dark_suic | Bicchi, emule-free :P not free at all :P | 04:03 |
| mase_ | ok dbglt | 04:03 |
| Bicchi | dark_suic: gotcha | 04:03 |
| dark_suic | igorayeb, first ask, then we'll see, we can't know | 04:03 |
| Bicchi | dark_suic: does vmware really emulates windows perfectly | 04:03 |
| dark_suic | Bicchi, sorry for not being of more help, but when i got my mp3 player the first thing i looked for was linux-compatibility | 04:03 |
| igorayeb | dark_suic: Arts send-me a messenger saing my sound is busy and can satart. :( | 04:03 |
| dark_suic | Bicchi, it doesn't emulate windows | 04:04 |
| dark_suic | it INSTALLS windows | 04:04 |
| Bicchi | dark_suic: you were of enought help thanks | 04:04 |
| Bicchi | dark_suic: i have posted on apple's website to support the ogg format. you should do the same. | 04:04 |
| dark_suic | igorayeb, it happens every time you boot??? or just tried once? | 04:04 |
| igorayeb | every time.. | 04:05 |
| Bicchi | dark_suic: can i use vmware if i allready have windows installed | 04:05 |
| dark_suic | don't like ipod at all, although may think of it if it has ogg support :P | 04:05 |
| igorayeb | dark_suic: every time. | 04:05 |
| dark_suic | yes, you can, Bicchi you will only need a new partition (i think) for windows, although not sure, just don't know how it works | 04:05 |
| dark_suic | igorayeb, i've seen this problem before | 04:05 |

| Tallia1Kubuntu | eightiesk: check it out | 07:53 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | before you can see the file has not an X in the user permission line | 07:54 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | then you add the exec permission with chmod and you can execute correctly | 07:54 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | if you still have problems just create another paste and publish the link | 07:54 |
| vijay | i even used komba, it is saying that "smbmount exited with errors and SMB connection failed" | 07:54 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | uh, another thing, in the beginning of the string you have to specify with kind of shell executes the script | 07:55 |
| eightiesk | Tallia1Kubuntu, well i just wanna install this skin n the sh ain't been wanting to work. | 07:55 |
| eightiesk | when i double click it. | 07:55 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | using bash, very common choice, #!/bin/sh | 07:55 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | ok, so i think that that file doesn't have exec permission | 07:55 |
| Tallia1Kubuntu | click with the right button -> proprieties | 07:55 |

| Howcomes | Then i decide hey lets try Linux, Installed Slackware 10.2, LILO Bootloader is installed | 09:21 |
| dbglt | better than adept? | 09:21 |
| Howcomes | Then im like ok, I cant get anything to work properly in here, Oh hey look Kubuntu, Installed Kubuntu 5.10 - GRUB becomes the active bootloader. | 09:22 |

| _mindspin | so i have to compile it from source if I need it? | 10:34 |
| mr-russ | _mindspin: you will probably need to get the source and recreate the packages for hoary. | 10:34 |
| mr-russ | _mindspin: easy thing is to download the src package by adding the deb-src backports. and then rebuilding the debs and installing those. | 10:34 |
| _mindspin | compiling or building a deb file, what would be the best choice | 10:34 |
| mr-russ | _mindspin: building the deb will keep your system in a neat order. | 10:35 |
| _mindspin | ic | 10:35 |
| mr-russ | Once you start compiling and installing, it can get nastier. Plus building the .debs allows for later use and dependancy management | 10:36 |

| LeeJunFan | teroedni: There's some small differences, mostly with kopete, other than that - not much. | 12:52 |
| grexk | How dangerous is using hdparm in your HD? | 12:52 |
| LeeJunFan | grexk: depends on the args you give it. | 12:53 |
| Skrot | grexk: Depends on the args | 12:53 |
| Skrot | They're labeled if they are dangerous | 12:53 |

| jeroenvrp | how dangerous is it to upgrade breezy to dapper today>? | 12:54 |
| Skrot | jeroenvrp: I just did a dist-upgrade (already running dapper). Let me see if anything breaks | 12:54 |
| grexk | Skol: does that cmd help in the performance of the hardware? | 12:54 |
| grexk | jeroenvrp: I just installed dapper last night | 12:54 |

| Skrot | hdparm -d /dev/hdx | 12:55 |
| Riddell | jeroenvrp: no | 12:56 |
| Skrot | you might have to sudo or do it as root | 12:56 |
| jeroenvrp | Riddell: ok, thanks for your answer | 12:56 |
| jeroenvrp | /dev/hda3: Permission denied | 12:56 |

| Skrot | grexk: nope :) | 12:57 |
| grexk | :( | 12:57 |
| grexk | just the cmd above :) | 12:57 |

| howcomes | have you got the latest version ? | 01:43 |
| swim | i just did a full upgrade with adept... so I would believe so | 01:44 |
| howcomes | hmm | 01:44 |
| howcomes | ive never used ktorrent so im not sure | 01:44 |
| swim | it was working fine... not sure what happened | 01:44 |
| howcomes | try restarting it? | 01:46 |
| howcomes | try restarting the box, try another torrent | 01:46 |
| swim | tried rebooting actually | 01:46 |
| howcomes | make sure you chown all files its attempting to use/write to | 01:46 |

| howcomes | if the files are set as your username that is good | 01:48 |

| howcomes | its when their set as root and your running the program as not root and it tries to access them that permissions get in the way | 01:48 |

| howcomes | do other torrents work ? | 01:49 |
| howcomes | maybe you just have to restart that torrent | 01:49 |

| dark_suic | and with the repo | 03:22 |
| dark_suic | you get the latest version | 03:22 |
| dark_suic | and seeing that kde is upgradeable | 03:22 |
| dark_suic | can make you remember to go to kubuntu.org or kde.org to see the changelog or things like that :) | 03:22 |
| kkathman | right, but occasionally they'll sneak a new repo in there | 03:22 |
| kkathman | not everyone, for instance might want to upgrade to an RC or Beta, so theyll provide a different repo for that | 03:23 |

| LeeJunFan | yeah, unless you get in the elite group of game programmers that make a big hit, you have about as much chance as being the first quadroplegic in the NFL. | 04:24 |
| kkathman | right | 04:24 |
| muzzle | It's where the big money are in Denmark. | 04:25 |
| kkathman | if you know compiler theory and want to do that, its not bad | 04:25 |
| kkathman | but the world's programming is going to Asia and India | 04:25 |
| muzzle | Not just as a little coder, but as a leader of course :D | 04:25 |
| Traumkiste | kkathman: who is programming for money? | 04:25 |
| === cprompt looks around | ||
| LeeJunFan | Well, programming does have a few niche markets. Making special programs for industry to use in house. | 04:25 |
| muzzle | I'm getting my 5 years university degree in CS | 04:25 |
| kkathman | good luck muzzle :) | 04:25 |
| muzzle | hehe | 04:26 |
| kkathman | networking and security is the hot field now | 04:26 |
| muzzle | why luck though? | 04:26 |
| muzzle | School is easy. | 04:26 |
| kkathman | at least here | 04:26 |
| muzzle | Networking is only getting bigger. | 04:26 |
| kkathman | most companies outsource their development now | 04:26 |
| kkathman | lower costs | 04:26 |
| LeeJunFan | seems like the best bet for getting programming employment would be with some type of industry that designs their own stuff and needs special little programs to formulate or run machinery. | 04:26 |
| kkathman | IT is still a company's #1 expense | 04:26 |
| kkathman | LeeJunFan: automata | 04:27 |
| LeeJunFan | yeah, which means write software for something which you will have no competition. | 04:27 |
| kkathman | and....job security is ZERO | 04:27 |
| kkathman | hehe not a long term gig if ya know what I mean | 04:28 |
| LeeJunFan | but then with real programmers it's not about the money. Just like with artists. | 04:28 |
| kkathman | LeeJunFan: cant feed the wife and kids with that tho | 04:29 |
| LeeJunFan | kkathman: no you cant. Which is why I don't program much any more. | 04:29 |

| muzzle | I'm doing it in the console windows | 04:41 |
| kkathman | thats fairly typical of most Universities course otherwise they have to get you to download some bit IDE | 04:41 |

| kkathman | muzzle: yeah in a term window is ok to...thats cli | 04:41 |
| muzzle | yes yes | 04:41 |
| dark_suic | well, i'm doing c at university and we use gedit (the ones who use gnome) and kate the rest... | 04:41 |
| kkathman | dark_suic: thats nice | 04:42 |
| kkathman | much better than emacs :) | 04:42 |
| dark_suic | i do love kate :P | 04:42 |
| muzzle | I thought Emacs was the best | 04:42 |
| kkathman | sounds like muzzle is being given his environment tho | 04:42 |
| muzzle | ;) | 04:42 |
| muzzle | We can use what ever | 04:42 |
| dark_suic | (and for CLI use vim XD) | 04:42 |
| kkathman | dark_suic: kate IS great :) | 04:42 |
| LeeJunFan | kate is the shiat. | 04:42 |
| muzzle | But I just thought Emacs was the way to go? | 04:42 |
| kkathman | emacs is pretty much old school...Unix....but it works | 04:43 |
| kkathman | kinda defeats the purpose of installing and using X tho | 04:43 |
| muzzle | k | 04:43 |

| mserms | You can install it by typing (at the command line): sudo apt-get install regionset | 05:16 |

| eightiesk | jpatrick, how do you install from source? | 05:56 |
| dark_suic | Stele, you shouldn't need to uninstall both and then install the another | 05:56 |
| dark_suic | is all configurable :P | 05:56 |
| jpatrick | eightiesk: depends on what you're trying to install | 05:57 |

| Stele | thanks dark_suic | 06:19 |
| c0rrupt` | yea but isnt that only for 2.4... | 06:19 |
| Stele | i should have tried the vesa trick before | 06:19 |

| OSPirate | is there like a default Root password? | 09:30 |
| hussam | anybody here's on dapper? | 09:30 |
| OSPirate | because it never asked me for a root password while installing it | 09:30 |

| === leafw [n=leafw@dhcp226-12.obee.ucla.edu] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| yellowdart | OSPirate: no, the root password is disabled by default...just 'sudo command' | 09:30 |
| leafw | what is the package that holds the qdeveloper, or kdeveloper, or whatever name it has? | 09:31 |
| dark_suic | leafw, kdevelop3 | 09:31 |
| leafw | aparently qt3-designer didn't install it | 09:31 |
| OSPirate | yellowdart, how can I set a root password? | 09:31 |
| dark_suic | OSPirate, it isn't recomended to set a root pass | 09:31 |
| OSPirate | fair enough | 09:31 |
| dark_suic | OSPirate, it's way better to do it via sudo | 09:31 |
| OSPirate | thats just how I've always done it | 09:31 |
| yellowdart | OSPirate: well, you really dont need to...it's a security issue, because you can do any root tasks using sudo | 09:31 |
| OSPirate | thats the thing | 09:32 |
| OSPirate | I don't want my regular user | 09:32 |
| OSPirate | to have root privalages | 09:32 |
| OSPirate | as simply as typing sudo | 09:32 |
| yellowdart | who is your regular user?? | 09:32 |
| OSPirate | me | 09:32 |
| yellowdart | why dont you want the ability for root privs? | 09:32 |
| OSPirate | but I mean who I log in as | 09:32 |
| OSPirate | security issue | 09:33 |
| OSPirate | I want to leave my regular user logged in | 09:33 |
| OSPirate | but have to log in as root for serious administration stuff | 09:33 |
| yellowdart | any other users that you create are not part of the admin group..and cannot use sudo | 09:33 |
| OSPirate | oh I see how they do it | 09:33 |
| OSPirate | most distro's create a root password, and a limited user account for primary use | 09:33 |
| OSPirate | during the installation | 09:33 |
| OSPirate | thanks people | 09:34 |
| yellowdart | yeah, they do it like osx where there is an admin...which uses sudo | 09:34 |

| fatejudger | KDE apps seem to open new windows instead of tabs in Dapper, does anyone know about this? | 10:21 |
| Aji-Dahaka | kde apps? | 10:22 |
| dark_suic | fatejudger, it's usually configurable | 10:22 |
| hussam | fatejudger: you mean pages on konqueror? | 10:22 |
| fatejudger | Konq, Kopete | 10:22 |
| fatejudger | every KDE app that can use windows or tab | 10:23 |

| fatejudger | well how would you change it in Konq? | 10:23 |
| Aji-Dahaka | settings ... | 10:23 |
| fatejudger | no shit | 10:24 |
| fatejudger | there's about 20,000 of them in there | 10:24 |
| Aji-Dahaka | look through them all :p | 10:24 |
| fatejudger | I could barely find that obscure aRTS option in the plugin section | 10:24 |
| Aji-Dahaka | I don't have it open right now, but it's in the *think* | 10:24 |
| Aji-Dahaka | section talking about how you want tabs to be handled one of the top 5 pages, I think | 10:24 |
| hussam | fatejudger: konq settings> web behavior | 10:25 |
| Aji-Dahaka | thanks, hussam | 10:25 |
| hussam | fatejudger: konq settings> web behavior > tabbed browsing | 10:25 |
| fatejudger | it's already enabled | 10:25 |
| hussam | fatejudger: is k3b working in dapper? | 10:25 |
| fatejudger | hold on sec | 10:25 |
| fatejudger | do you want me to burn a cd or something? | 10:25 |
| hussam | no | 10:25 |
| fatejudger | it runs, lets put it that way | 10:26 |
| fatejudger | new icons too | 10:26 |
| fatejudger | pretty nice | 10:26 |
| hussam | sorry, I assumed you tried that already. | 10:26 |
| hussam | ok cool | 10:26 |
| Aji-Dahaka | haha! | 10:27 |
| fatejudger | I'm sure it burns cds | 10:27 |
| fatejudger | I don't know why it wouldn't | 10:27 |
| hussam | so basically besides that tab thing, it is stable? | 10:27 |
| Aji-Dahaka | setting KDEROOTHOME worked perfectly | 10:27 |
| fatejudger | I'm working on the tab thing | 10:27 |
| fatejudger | I think I might have figured it out | 10:27 |

| trappist | yeah <3 katapult | 10:31 |
| fatejudger | I basically installed Dapper expecting oodles of bugs | 10:31 |
| trappist | now if only it wouldn't up-scale small icons into ugliness | 10:31 |
| fatejudger | but I wanted the latest packages and features | 10:31 |

| fatejudger | they fixed the apt update thing | 10:32 |
| fatejudger | but you still can't do a full upgrade | 10:32 |
| fatejudger | I use apt in the CLI, so I didn't notice it for awhile | 10:33 |

| Red_Herring | because i run kubuntu here | 11:32 |
| fatejudger | my computer science teacher is a java fan though | 11:32 |
| Red_Herring | fatejudger: same here | 11:32 |
| fatejudger | so all he does is talk trash about C/C++ all day | 11:32 |
| Red_Herring | that sucks | 11:32 |
| Red_Herring | my teacher knows shit about c++ | 11:32 |
| Red_Herring | she doesnt know how to pass arrays | 11:32 |
| Red_Herring | do you? | 11:32 |
| Red_Herring | i cant find out how | 11:32 |
| fatejudger | it shoudl be just like any other variable | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | it isnt | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | well wait | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | by pass | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | doing function(int array) | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | do you mean by reference? | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | doesnt work | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | ohhh | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | of course it doesn' | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | t | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | my computer teacher doesnt know how | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | you need foo(int &array) | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | because she hates c++ | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | thats all? | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | that hands the memory address to the function | 11:33 |
| Red_Herring | just pass it as an array? | 11:33 |
| fatejudger | passing by reference | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | *reference | 11:34 |
| fatejudger | yeah | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | typo | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | thats simple | 11:34 |
| fatejudger | yeah | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | i made a tic tac toe program | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | and had an array for the board | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | but i couldnt figure out how to pass the board array | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | so i had to make it a global variable | 11:34 |
| Red_Herring | damn that is not good | 11:35 |
| poningru | hehe | 11:35 |
| Red_Herring | but what i got against c++ is the libraries we use at school arent for linux | 11:35 |
| Red_Herring | so my tic tac toe program can only work under wine | 11:35 |
| fatejudger | is it GUI? | 11:36 |
| Red_Herring | yup | 11:36 |
| Red_Herring | its an old GUI library | 11:36 |
| fatejudger | you should be using a cross-platform GUI toolkit like QT | 11:36 |
| Red_Herring | its easy to use, and all my school can afford | 11:36 |
| fatejudger | QT is free | 11:36 |
| Red_Herring | fatejudger: you realize how much more my computer teacher would have to leran? | 11:36 |
| fatejudger | I'm not sure about education institutions though | 11:36 |
| fatejudger | lol | 11:36 |
| fatejudger | yes, but QT is very easy to learn | 11:37 |
| Red_Herring | i tried my hand at tk w/ python | 11:37 |
| Red_Herring | holy crap thats complex | 11:37 |
| fatejudger | try QT with C++ or Ruby | 11:37 |
| fatejudger | it works great | 11:37 |
| Red_Herring | sure | 11:37 |
| Red_Herring | any good tutorials out there? | 11:37 |
| fatejudger | www.trolltech.com | 11:37 |
| fatejudger | they have tutorials and all of the classes documented | 11:38 |
| Red_Herring | fatejudger: i WOULD show you my tictactoe program, but my parents are holding my router hostage | 11:38 |
| Red_Herring | so i cant have my server | 11:38 |
| fatejudger | lol | 11:38 |
| Red_Herring | embedded QT? | 11:38 |
| Red_Herring | neat | 11:38 |
| Red_Herring | how hard is GTK+? | 11:38 |
| Red_Herring | sorry if thats a retarded question to ask | 11:38 |
| fatejudger | harder than QT | 11:39 |
| fatejudger | a lot harder | 11:39 |

| Red_Herring | hmm | 11:39 |
| Red_Herring | good to know | 11:39 |
| fatejudger | it's different for going cross-platform too | 11:39 |
| Red_Herring | is there any good IDEs for qt and c++? | 11:39 |
| dbglt | kdevelop | 11:39 |
| === tech9iner no such thing on the mature side of tangz.. 'retarded questions'.. | ||
| fatejudger | I think QTs libraries are native for the OS and embedded when you compile the program | 11:40 |
| dbglt | for all languages and such, it's fantastic | 11:40 |
| Red_Herring | any cross platform IDEs? | 11:40 |
| fatejudger | Red_Herring: KDevelop | 11:40 |
| fatejudger | Red_Herring: oh | 11:40 |
| fatejudger | Red_Herring: I hate to say it, but Visual Studio 2005 | 11:40 |
| fatejudger | Red_Herring: I think they support QT now | 11:40 |
| Red_Herring | thats cross platform? | 11:40 |
| fatejudger | no | 11:41 |
| fatejudger | but it works on Windows | 11:41 |
| Red_Herring | true | 11:41 |
| fatejudger | and you can always use KDevelop on Linux | 11:41 |
| dbglt | what's that IBM one... | 11:41 |
| Red_Herring | does eclipse have a plugin for it? | 11:41 |
| Red_Herring | i could just use eclipse | 11:41 |
| fatejudger | you know what you can do | 11:41 |
| Red_Herring | w/ a plugin | 11:41 |
| fatejudger | if you don't want QT functionality embedded | 11:41 |
| Red_Herring | ok | 11:41 |
| fatejudger | is just the QDesigner | 11:41 |
| Red_Herring | ill look into it | 11:41 |
| fatejudger | and then some regular IDE | 11:41 |
| fatejudger | that would be the best option | 11:42 |
| dbglt | yeah I'd suggest eclipse | 11:42 |
| Red_Herring | i tried eclipse, maybe its me, but that took an awefully long time to start and run | 11:42 |
| dbglt | worked fine for me :) | 11:43 |
| Red_Herring | well... i do have a 1.5ghz celeron laptop | 11:43 |
| dbglt | there are a lot of proprietary versions also :\ | 11:44 |
| dbglt | of crossplatform ides | 11:44 |

| Red_Herring | i hate gstreamer | 11:50 |
| Red_Herring | i use xine for everthing | 11:50 |
| Red_Herring | that and vlc | 11:50 |
| Red_Herring | now that i think about it, mplayer too | 11:50 |

| mcsteels | can any1 help me, trying to install automatix on amd64 but cant find the deb for 64 anywhere?? | 11:54 |
| Red_Herring | !automatix | 11:54 |
| ubotu | automatix is, like, messy, it breaks security guidelines. In short: You should not use it! !easyubuntu is a safer alternative, however it is much better to simply read documentation | 11:54 |
| Red_Herring | !easyubuntu | 11:55 |
| dbglt | xvimagesink.c(740): gst_xvimagesink_get_xv_support: /internal_thread/thread_vbin/vbin/sink: | 11:55 |
| dbglt | No port available | 11:55 |
| mcsteels | where can I read up on easyubuntu?? | 11:55 |
| mcsteels | and will it work on breezy 5.10 kubuntu?? | 11:56 |
| Red_Herring | type in !easyubuntu | 11:56 |
| Red_Herring | it messages you | 11:56 |
| eXSiR | !easyubuntu | 11:56 |
| mcsteels | !easyubuntu | 11:56 |
| dbglt | ah | 11:57 |
| dbglt | easy | 11:57 |
| dbglt | just had to change | 11:57 |

| Red_Herring | but i just want ta have a working computer | 11:59 |

| === bas_ [n=bas@224.Red-83-38-91.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] | ||
| fatejudger | it'll work | 11:59 |
| fatejudger | it isn't just going to crash every 5 minutes | 11:59 |
| fatejudger | the only major problem is Adept | 11:59 |
| fatejudger | which is somewhat unusable ATM | 12:00 |
| fatejudger | it can't update the repos and it can't do a "full update" | 12:00 |
| Red_Herring | well... | 12:00 |
| Red_Herring | that sucks | 12:00 |
| fatejudger | in fact, other than that | 12:00 |
| fatejudger | if they released Dapper right now | 12:00 |
| fatejudger | it would be more stable than Breezy IMO | 12:00 |
| Red_Herring | i used dapper | 12:01 |
| Red_Herring | livecd | 12:01 |
| Red_Herring | it was nice | 12:01 |
| Red_Herring | but VERY VERY buggy | 12:01 |
| fatejudger | well I can tell you | 12:01 |
| fatejudger | I'm using Flight 3 | 12:01 |
| fatejudger | and I've noticed very few bugs | 12:01 |
