| mr-russ | hatake_kakashi: what are you trying to say about debain? | 02:05 |
| Hobbsee | hehe - nalioth stays on the entire time that i'm here though | 02:05 |
| brodel | does kubuntu run on the new intel basked ibooks or imacs? | 02:05 |
| brodel | verizon sucks.. I told them my DSL was slow and I was running linux they said they don't support it and I'd have to get on a windows PC before they would help. | 02:06 |
| __mikem | try running a live cd in it to find out brodel | 02:06 |
| hatake_kakashi | mr-russ: kubuntu uses deb packages.. ok I'm trying to make this short.. I need to be able to backup any relevant updates, etc that I have had done and that I want it to work when I reinstall without having to download all those packages that I have previously downloaded again | 02:07 |
| brodel | __mikem: I don't have one.. but I've been thinking about it. I want one that runs XP, OSX and kubuntu | 02:07 |
| thoreauputic | brodel: as far as I know no linux runs on macintel yet | 02:07 |
| Hobbsee | *nalioth stays here all the time, i mean | 02:07 |
| Hobbsee | hatake_kakashi: i think you end up backing up all of / and copying it over somehow | 02:07 |
| __mikem | IF you want to use kubuntu, I recomend installing ubuntu first then installing the kubuntu-desktop package | 02:07 |
| Hobbsee | __mikem: why? | 02:08 |
| __mikem | because the kubuntu cd itself doesn't come with a lot of software preloaded | 02:08 |
| __mikem | ubuntu does | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | yeah, not all the gnome stuff - but it still comes with a lot of the kde stuff | 02:08 |
| hatake_kakashi | Hobbsee: well, that isn't a good idea, I would be happy if I can backup all those packages that I have got because that way I don't need to re-download all over again | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | oh.... | 02:08 |
| __mikem | Doesn't have any games on it | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | you want *that* | 02:08 |
| __mikem | you have to get those manually | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | __mikem: yeah, that always annoyed me - install kdegames | 02:08 |
| __mikem | I did | 02:09 |
| __mikem | but it should be preloaded | 02:09 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: I have troubles with ubuntu, Gnome does not support my usb keyboard/mouse well.. I tried it on the hoary and the breezy (unstable) version | 02:09 |
| Hobbsee | hatake_kakashi: you want the files in /var/cache/apt/archives | 02:09 |
| Hobbsee | __mikem: but then so should everything, and the system just becomes all bloated like mandriva | 02:09 |
| __mikem | ubuntu lacks usb support, but I think they are planing to work with that | 02:09 |
| brodel | oh bah.. now I have another error :( "checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.0) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!" | 02:09 |
| __mikem | hobbsee good point | 02:09 |

| __mikem | but they could also atleast preconfigure bintools and gcc for you | 02:10 |

| brodel | I thought I already installed that. | 02:10 |
| Hobbsee | __mikem: why - most people dont compile? besides, once you get one bit of devel stuff, you end up needing more and more | 02:10 |
| __mikem | I learned that the hard way with my laptop | 02:10 |
| hatake_kakashi | Hobbsee: yeah last time I copied all those files and the apt-get fails to read from that place first.. I was later told in #debian that there is an index file. I also checked that it was on the parent directory of that. My question is, if I copy all those files plus the indexes, should I be set? or do I have to get something else? I don't want to download all those packages again or mess with dpkg to make sure that it works | 02:10 |
| __mikem | its a mess right now | 02:11 |
| brodel | nevermind.. no way I installed that massive package | 02:11 |
| Hobbsee | brodel: check it - otherwise you'll have to specify where it is | 02:11 |
| Hobbsee | hehe | 02:11 |
| === Hobbsee likes having all the devel stuff in one | ||
| brodel | I still don't get linux yet.. you gotta install 80 things to have one thing you want. | 02:11 |
| Hobbsee | i'm not sure | 02:11 |
| __mikem | Thats the one complaint my brother has about linux and he fancies himself a linux guru | 02:11 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: I have tried ubuntu and I definetly like the somewhat meaner UI (somewhat faster) however, I would be happy if the USB products are supported because the mobo I have is sh*t. PS/2 ports are fscked | 02:12 |
| Hobbsee | brodel: well, use apt-cache show packagename, and get the names of the packages that you want inside | 02:12 |
| __mikem | he could easily be one of those guys that sells linux teck support | 02:12 |

| brodel | I wish I was good with linux.. but I don't see how you guys just know what one thing means.. like I say here's the error and you tell me to install this | 02:12 |
| __mikem | hatake I believe the nice ubuntu developers should have that worked out by the next release | 02:12 |
| __mikem | thats what I heard on the message boards | 02:12 |
| brodel | yeah, but if windows needs something it's in the package :) | 02:13 |
| hatake_kakashi | brodel: its all trial and error + reading some of the debug info and/or checking with support :) | 02:13 |
| brodel | oh well. I want to get away from windows | 02:13 |

| __mikem | Not necessary right now | 02:15 |
| hatake_kakashi | brodel: lemme give you one piece of important advice. When you get desparate for certain files to work, etc. Do not rely constantly on having universe/multiverse enabled just for you to do your requirements. I have done that not long ago and now I end up having to reinstall a whole bunch of things again because the WM/DE fails to work | 02:15 |

| __mikem | um, if you are connected to a lan, just drop all your files off on the server | 02:17 |
| Hobbsee | hatake_kakashi: did you ever run non-official repos? | 02:17 |
| __mikem | thats what I do | 02:17 |
| brodel | my boss has pretty much told me that they'll never be a reason for me to learn linux at least not while working there.. that discouraged me a bit. | 02:17 |

| ubotu | I heard avi is Video for Windows. For more info http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats | 02:18 |
| brodel | ok that's done.. let me retry this. | 02:18 |
| Hobbsee | UFO: i'm of the opinion of "if you're into compiling things, you may as well get a whole heap of the devel packages in one hit, as there are plenty that you have to get singly, so you only get as you need them | 02:19 |
| __mikem | A bit of a change in subject but I would like someones take on this. I am a big kde fan, I think its great that a product that has such a heavy focus on nice appearance still runs well also | 02:19 |
| brodel | woot.. configure finished | 02:19 |
| Hobbsee | brodel: yay! | 02:19 |
| __mikem | One thing I would say though is, the way the kubuntu desktop packages are configured makes it extremely hard if nt imposible to customize it. | 02:19 |
| hatake_kakashi | brodel: each little package has a dependency for another. If you get some files that belongs to Gnome side of things, apt-get may also get other Gnome dependencies. When you keep working towards it, you will soon realise that you have a whole bunch of files that came from universe/multiverse depos and that your system build is completely odd.

| Hobbsee | __mikem: there's a lot of work being done on the configuration of kubuntu - i agree, it's horrible now. | 02:20 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: the UI look and feel? | 02:21 |
| Hobbsee | i'm not doing that work, so i cant tell you exactly, but after your thursday you can read a transcript of a meeting that will say what's being done to be changed | 02:21 |
| brodel | I didn't like ubuntu later on I think I realized I just didn't care for gnome. | 02:21 |
| Hobbsee | and people will vote on what should be changed, and what shouldnt | 02:21 |
| __mikem | Oh, the look and feel is great (as always with kde) its just the customization and lack of control features | 02:21 |

| __mikem | hatake_kakashi kde and gnome are aimed at two totally different audiances. GNOME is for power users who don't need a lot of automation to get their computer to work, KDE is for people who like things done for them and think there should be a tool for everything | 02:26 |
| __mikem | I sort of fall inbetween these two definite classifications so some times when I am using my laptop I will load kde, and other times I will use gnome (I have both installed) its just how I feel that day | 02:26 |

| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: I use various unsupported packages such as gkrellm and I saw once 'gam_server' took up around 10% of the CPU usage. Whenever I press the direction keys on the keyboard, the CPU usage rockets from ~10% to almost 100% for a short burst before the display comes out.. eg. I use irssi to chat, if I wanted to see what I wrote last, I press up on the keyboard to see what I said last. However with gam-server, it uses CPU usage to a certain | 02:27 |

| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: but both CLI and GUI have their advantages as well as their disadvantages | 02:34 |

| __mikem | GUI is definitely good for managing servers, especially when you need real time data monitoring | 02:34 |
| __mikem | CLI is good when having to navigate a billion menus becomes to cumbersome | 02:35 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: I learned to respect CLI the hardway.. back in the days of win9x was around, I was known to crash it very easily by messing around with regedit. Usual people at that time would freak out if their win9x stopped working and that they are switched to DOS | 02:35 |

| __mikem | hatake I am sure YOU were not the reason win9x crashed | 02:35 |
| __mikem | lol | 02:35 |
| __mikem | get it | 02:35 |
| brodel | that's all I think. | 02:35 |
| brodel | I barely remember 98 | 02:36 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: yes, but then I realised that CLI was another way for me to get along with the OS, apart from all 'point-and-click' interface :) | 02:36 |
| y_o_u | hey all. anyone here have any experience with installing icon packs in kubuntu, rather troubleshooting installations? | 02:37 |
| __mikem | A lot of tools sort of merge the two, they take the best of GUI (real time data monitoring, etc) and merge it with the best of CLI (quickness and eligance) | 02:37 |
| __mikem | the best example of this is the process viewer | 02:37 |
| __mikem | which allows you to launch monitor and kill any running process | 02:37 |
| Hobbsee | now of course, when you run a development release and lose X, it's very useful to be able to semi-navigate in CLI! | 02:38 |
| __mikem | Yes granted | 02:38 |
| __mikem | in the programming world where I feel most at home, I never use wysiwyg editors, because I could never really get along with them | 02:38 |
| __mikem | I always write my code by hand | 02:38 |
| __mikem | ofcourse not many wysiwyg editors are available for c/c++ or assembly | 02:39 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: hehe top and iptraf | 02:39 |
| __mikem | and you have people running around with these editors and code generators, claiming to be programmers and they have no idea how to write code | 02:39 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: lol | 02:39 |
| __mikem | WHich brings up the other problem which is that it induces lazyness | 02:40 |
| rich0rd | brodel: assure that you have kdevelop3-dev installed | 02:40 |
| __mikem | like when vb came out. WRiting software is fun and esay, yippee. "GReat but your software has limited functionality, requires all these runtime libraries that are hard to get, runs slow and basicly sucks" | 02:40 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: sounds somewhat like C to me where you needed to get the various stdlib etc | 02:41 |
| LeeJunFan | __mikem: wow! that does sound fun AND easy! | 02:41 |
| __mikem | lol | 02:41 |
| __mikem | yeh, but the vb programmers really were never taken serious | 02:42 |
| hatake_kakashi | they were bagged as virus creators and such | 02:42 |
| hatake_kakashi | though some progressed onto other languages | 02:42 |
| LeeJunFan | Wonder why that is? | 02:42 |
| __mikem | I still don't know why delphi didn't do as well in the market place as vb | 02:42 |
| _richard2 | someone now about macromedia studio for linux? | 02:42 |
| __mikem | pascal is a tried and true language, basic has known performance issues, (all though today its a different story) | 02:43 |
| __mikem | why didn't delphi become the rad tool of choice | 02:43 |

| LeeJunFan | python == the new basic that's kinda like C. | 02:44 |
| rich0rd | brodel: kdbg | 02:44 |
| hatake_kakashi | LeeJunFan: Microsoft created Visual Basic which allows new users to make simple little snippets of codes to make their windows OS work for them. However as soon as script-kiddies found that was a method to exploit other windows machines and that you can created with ease. It was somewhat their weapon of choice, of course VB later on became popular for its easiness as well as the ability to cause havoc | 02:44 |

| _douglas | Where in KDE is the list of supported resolutions, because on my desktop it lists a whole bunch more that are in my xorg.conf? | 03:21 |

| __mikem | but you do have a point | 03:22 |

| hatake_kakashi | its just that I have downloaded around 1GB of packages and because the ISP I"m with here, has quota cap and it would not be a good idea for me to download them again. Thus having to wait for the packages to be downloaded. | 03:23 |

| __mikem | oh, so you want the package managor to recognize a local repository on your system | 03:24 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: well once I reinstalled kubuntu, yes | 03:25 |
| rich0rd | __mikem : i think there is a way to to that (local repo) | 03:25 |
| __mikem | I have never tried, I would have burned a cd of all the packages I need and dirrected synpatic to look in drive d | 03:25 |
| hatake_kakashi | last time I tried it, it failed, I was told there might be an index file. However I want to make sure this time round that if I'm doing it again, I want apt-get to make sure that it sees the local cache first | 03:25 |
| hatake_kakashi | blah :/ | 03:25 |
| UFO | hatake_kakashi: why you can use dpkg -i to install the software | 03:26 |
| prospero2006 | I just plugged my camera card reader into ubuntu. It detected it, mounted it, and opened it in a new window. | 03:26 |
| prospero2006 | That's impressive | 03:26 |
| __mikem | Ubuntu is "da bomb" | 03:27 |
| hatake_kakashi | UFO: because if I do that, it would be literally dealing with rpm -i. It will complain about the deps, etc. I would be a little happier if apt-get can deal with that for me by reading the stuff from my local repo | 03:27 |

| hatake_kakashi | well last time I had an user guiding me through it (somewhat) but that failed to work. The user said that there maybe an index file stored.. so I'm hoping this time round doing it again, it will work rather than redownloading packages, wasting time and monthly quota | 03:32 |

| ace | happen to know anything about kdm | 08:04 |
| ace | yeah | 08:04 |
| Red_Herring | well | 08:04 |
| Red_Herring | yeah | 08:04 |
| ace | it did that to me to | 08:04 |
| ace | and then kept talking there | 08:04 |
| Red_Herring | ok... so about kdm | 08:04 |
| ace | <ubotu> unfortunately, kernel is disabled in my configuration | 08:04 |
| ace | yeah | 08:04 |
| ace | in gdm | 08:04 |
| ace | I can maken win4lin | 08:04 |
| ace | a full screen thing | 08:04 |
| ace | you log in | 08:04 |
| ace | and Bhaaammmmm! you get a full screen | 08:04 |
| ace | win98 session | 08:04 |
| Red_Herring | huh, yeah | 08:04 |
| ace | no linux at all | 08:04 |
| ace | Do you know if that can be done in kdm ? | 08:05 |
| Red_Herring | hmmmm | 08:05 |
| Red_Herring | why bother? | 08:05 |
| Red_Herring | if it works with GDM | 08:05 |
| Red_Herring | just stick with that | 08:05 |
| ace | yeah you might be right | 08:05 |
| Red_Herring | i mean, you can still run kde and all w/ gdm | 08:05 |
| ace | it's just that I did this whole trick at http://www.suares.an/Kubuntu_LTSP_Win4Lin | 08:06 |

| Red_Herring | well, you can install gdm from kubuntu, so that shouldnt be an issue... | 08:07 |
| Red_Herring | but i thought there were sources for the 2.6.11 kernel | 08:08 |
| ace | don't get me started on the kernel | 08:08 |
| Red_Herring | ok | 08:08 |
| Red_Herring | i wont | 08:08 |
| ace | 2.6.11 was never a production kernel | 08:08 |
| Red_Herring | i mean, i installed gentoo yesterday | 08:09 |
| ace | and 2.6.12 there are no win4lin patches for | 08:09 |
| ace | so | 08:09 |
| ace | this is what I came up with | 08:09 |
| Red_Herring | and totally chickend out on the kernel comp | 08:09 |
| ace | what made you afraid ? | 08:09 |
| Red_Herring | well | 08:09 |
| Red_Herring | i mean, i just didnt want to not include something | 08:10 |
| ace | gotta go in 5 | 08:10 |
| Red_Herring | then end up desparatly needing it | 08:10 |
| ace | just try | 08:10 |
| Red_Herring | alright, i should sleep soon too | 08:10 |
| ace | and if it fails, try again | 08:10 |
| Red_Herring | i know | 08:10 |
| ace | that's the learning process | 08:10 |
| ace | and yes | 08:10 |
| ace | there are too many options | 08:10 |
| ace | and you'll only learn by f*ing up a couple of times | 08:10 |
| Red_Herring | yeah... | 08:10 |
| ace | so don't worry | 08:10 |
| Red_Herring | gentoo has the genkernel | 08:10 |
| ace | it just takes so loooooong... | 08:10 |
| Red_Herring | and i tried that | 08:11 |
| Red_Herring | and i got the same menuconfig screen | 08:11 |
| ace | don't they give some default config | 08:11 |
| ace | the same they use to start the system in the first plac e? | 08:11 |
| Red_Herring | but its just when you run into a problem down the road | 08:11 |
| Red_Herring | its hard to point to where it is | 08:11 |
| Red_Herring | but if the problem lies in the kernel | 08:11 |
| ace | i don't think it works that way | 08:11 |
| Red_Herring | its unlikely i will catch it | 08:11 |
| ace | you either have a problem tight away | 08:11 |
| Red_Herring | well, i had a problem with the nvidia drivers | 08:12 |
| ace | like scsi driver missing -> no /dev/sda1 | 08:12 |
| ace | and you should just build everything as modules | 08:12 |

| _sniff | how do i mount /dev/dha5 a fat32 partition then format it with reiser and mount it as /home? | 11:15 |
| hatake_kakashi | you have to format it, then mount it, or you can edit fstab and then mount it (which makes it easier) | 11:16 |

| hatake_kakashi | skypa: reiser uses a b*tree filesystem, its good with smaller sized single files, however with bigger chunks of files it does not perform that particularly well | 11:40 |
| hatake_kakashi | thanks _sniff | 11:40 |

| hatake_kakashi | _sniff: you have to edit fstab and then set the mountpoint as such | 11:44 |
| RoccoBG | Can you guys tell me which release of Kubuntu I should go for? Im looking at Dapper Drake but wasnt sure why it wasnt on the download page. | 11:44 |
| _sniff | reiser with an ordered journal is quick | 11:44 |
| hatake_kakashi | ext3 is more or less the linux standard fs | 11:44 |

| hatake_kakashi | _sniff: you need to first mount it, when mounted you can see it | 11:47 |
| _sniff | hatake_kakashi: so i guess i need to get the contents copied from / .... right? | 11:47 |
| RoccoBG | I will be formating and dual booting with Windows | 11:47 |

| _sniff | RoccoBG: during the install of ubuntu take the option NOT to put the bootloader in the MBR, put it on the / partition | 11:48 |
| RoccoBG | And leave a few GB for playing games occasinally | 11:48 |
| RoccoBG | Ok | 11:48 |
| _sniff | hatake_kakashi: /dev/hda5 on /home type reiserfs (rw,nodev) | 11:49 |
| _sniff | also in my install there is a bug, when i tell it to put the bootloader on the / partition it has a fatal error. But if I go back and do it again it works | 11:50 |
| hatake_kakashi | _sniff: ok try opening konqueror and point to /home instead of /home/_sniff for example | 11:50 |
| RoccoBG | There is a frend who is coming to give me a few hints while doing it myself. He is quite experienced with it. Not Kubuntu particually but he agreed its a great beginners choice. | 11:50 |
| hatake_kakashi | _sniff: hmm | 11:50 |
| _sniff | hatake_kakashi: it has the sniff folder inside. But i click it it tells me the folder doesn't seem to exist anymore | 11:51 |
| hatake_kakashi | _sniff: so under /home you can see _sniff but when you click on it, it says its not available? | 11:51 |
| _sniff | yep! | 11:51 |
| _sniff | but that's probably because before the home dir was inside / partition | 11:51 |
| hatake_kakashi | _sniff: wait.. so after you formatted to reiserfs, you mounted it and copied the contents from / to /home? | 11:52 |
| ita | well ... i will install kubuntu -NOW- .. wish me luck :) ciao for now | 11:53 |
| _sniff | no not copied yet | 11:53 |
| skypa | _sniff, would you mind doing a "ls -lha /home/_sniff" | 11:53 |
| hatake_kakashi | _sniff: so the data is on the / directory | 11:53 |
| skypa | I'm curious what the rights on that directory are | 11:53 |
| hatake_kakashi | I don't think its the issue about permissions, otherwise it would say Access Denie | 11:54 |
| hatake_kakashi | s/Denie/Denied | 11:54 |
| skypa | hm, true.. | 11:54 |
| hatake_kakashi | maybe Konqueror does caching? like you may have visited that partition/disk before whilst it was mounted as a vfat type of fs. When you unmounted, formatted and mounted it again, Konqueror still thinks the file is there? | 11:56 |

| JakubS_ | you plug it and either it is recognized and works immediately or you are out of luck :-) | 02:38 |
| patrix | lol | 02:38 |
| patrix | it's not that simple JakubS_ | 02:38 |
| patrix | see I plug it in, it's recognized, all the /dev entries are there | 02:38 |
| farous | patrix: for skype install it from seveas repos and try it out | 02:38 |
| patrix | yes yes | 02:39 |

| Psi-Jack | It does. Seveas is the one that made the package. :) | 02:50 |
| farous | nice | 02:50 |
| lunitik | kkathman: imo, its better organized, cleaner... its probably gonna be at least simular to what ends up in kde4... | 02:51 |

| === theball [n=shane@perseus.mpcu.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| kkathman | well I wouldnt mind it so much, if it would work | 02:52 |
| kkathman | dont like katapult either | 02:52 |
| lunitik | kkathman: works fine here? | 02:52 |
| kkathman | in Dapper perhaps but not in Breezy | 02:52 |
| lunitik | kkathman: I don't even know the point of katapult, but it stays out of my way... | 02:52 |
| kosh | I find that katapult is vaslty slower to start then just using alt-f2 | 02:52 |
| jpatrick | lunitik: more likely fused with Tenor | 02:52 |
| kosh | all the graphics really seem to slow it down | 02:52 |
| kkathman | kosh yes | 02:53 |
| kosh | when my system is not loaded at all I don't notice it | 02:53 |
| kkathman | and alt-f2 has auto complete too | 02:53 |
| kkathman | hehe | 02:53 |
| kosh | but when the system is absolutely pegged alt-f2 launches far far faster then katapult does | 02:53 |

| kkathman | there is some huge overhead that kubuntu is paying somewhere cuz its quite inefficient, perhaps the 15 kernal will fix that | 02:54 |
| kosh | katapult is just painful to use in that situation | 02:54 |
| === lunitik doesn't get what katapult is, other than an application launcher :/ | ||
| kkathman | thats all it is | 02:54 |
| kkathman | its alt-f2 + graphics | 02:54 |
| kosh | it is an applicaiton launcher but a very slow one since it has so many things to make it look better | 02:54 |
| lunitik | hah.. k | 02:54 |
| lunitik | kkathman: I get a lot of kio_file and kio_http processes all the time... ps -e and see if you have a bunch, if so, pkill -9 them | 02:55 |
| farous | kosh: why not switch to a lighter window manager and other lighter progs | 02:55 |
| lunitik | kkathman: makes things much more responsive | 02:55 |
| kosh | farous: because the programs are using very little resources compared to what my tests are using | 02:56 |
| farous | i have a 1gb ram here and eh just uing less than quarter of it cpu at 20% utiliz at lowest freq | 02:56 |
| kkathman | maybe so..but it just shouldnt do that...I run another distro...I can open the exact same apps even more and use 1/2 the memory and less than 1/2 the idle CPU time | 02:56 |
| kosh | farous: it is not kde that is using those resources by a longshot, kde is actually very memory efficient because so much is shared | 02:56 |
| lunitik | farous: because KDE is awesome, and is more than just a window manager... kwin also is probably the best window manager around though... but I like a complete desktop though.. | 02:56 |
| kosh | farous: what is using all the memory and cpu is an automated test suite I am running against a zope database | 02:56 |
| kkathman | kosh yes - my point exactly | 02:56 |
| lunitik | kkathman: do what I said... | 02:56 |
| lunitik | kkathman: its a pain, but I swear it makes the system faster ;) | 02:57 |
| farous | ok kosh understand now | 02:57 |
| kkathman | lunitik: I understand...but should I have to be watchdogging it? | 02:57 |
| lunitik | kkathman: no... but meh... you DO have to... | 02:57 |
| farous | i am not here for desktop or wm war just like my sys slim so can have the resources for compiling | 02:57 |
| kkathman | ugh sigh | 02:57 |

| farous_away | crappy is the perfect word | 04:43 |
| farous_away | that is why it is strange to find someone complain about nvidia | 04:43 |
| kosh | the ati binary driver can not initialize two radeon cards in a box, that is true of windows and linux | 04:43 |
| farous_away | did you compile from source | 04:44 |
| farous_away | kosh did you try setting it as dual head. two devices to BusId | 04:44 |
| farous_away | for i am setting it like that here with one card | 04:44 |
| farous_away | and know it work with double cards seen the config scripts | 04:45 |

| kosh | farous_away: they are all referenced by busid | 04:50 |
| kosh | farous_away: however the proprietary ati driver won't work in that config, actually I can get it to turn on just two of the monitors and fglrx doesn't even try to bind to the other card in the log file from what I could see | 04:50 |

| litb | does kubuntu have regulary security updates? | 08:41 |
| gilrim | not in the same way as susa afaik. you update manually thru the package manager | 08:41 |
| gilrim | or you could probably use cron to some extent | 08:42 |

| gilrim | ntfsmount is part of ntfsprogs package. It's rely on libntfs, thus it have more features than kernel driver. ntfsmount supports file overwrite with changes to file size, have limited file and directory creation/deletion support and can operate with named data streams. CVS version also supports special Interix files (symlinks, block and character devies, FIFOs and sockets). | 09:00 |

| quinn | ok, I just installed Kubuntu to compare it to Ubuntu and I am experiencing some VERY strange behaviour | 09:16 |
| quinn | I set my .bash_profile to a single line as follows: | 09:16 |
| quinn | exec env -i HOME=$HOME TERM=$TERM PS1='\$ ' /bin/bash | 09:17 |
| quinn | it should then execute a non-login shell which would read my .bashrc, which does not override my PS1 variable | 09:17 |
| quinn | and yet when I do source .bash_profile | 09:17 |
| quinn | it fills in the system default prompt (which I hate, it's a waste of space) | 09:18 |
| quinn | why? | 09:18 |
| ubijtsa | quinn: .bash_profile is read once - at login | 09:18 |
| ubijtsa | quinn: .bashrc is read for every shell started | 09:18 |
| ubijtsa | if /etc/bashrc sets the prompt - it will over-ride your .bash_profile | 09:19 |

| aitor | well pmount is installed, but is there any way I should tell my system to use it, or does it use it by default? | 09:22 |
| ubijtsa | quinn: it reads /etc/bashrc first, then ~/.bashrc - it is in the man-page somewhere | 09:22 |

| Psi-Jack | I have a problem trying to install Kubuntu on one of my servers, and I experienced the same problem on this system I'm on now, with a multi-level partitioning arrangement. Making /usr, /var, /home, etc.. | 09:34 |
| quinn | why would you use kubuntu for a server? | 09:34 |
| Psi-Jack | It gets to installing the image-386, for the kernel, and fails. | 09:34 |
| Psi-Jack | quinn: Because it's better than running Debian as a server? | 09:34 |
| quinn | define 'better' | 09:35 |
| Psi-Jack | Better is an opinionated term. I don't like Debian for my reasons. | 09:35 |
| quinn | fair enough | 09:35 |
| quinn | have you considered something not in that vein? | 09:35 |
| Psi-Jack | There's a server mode install of Kubuntu. It doesn't install all the extra kubuntu-desktop stuff. | 09:36 |
| quinn | so in that case what is the advantage of running Kubuntu over, for instance, Debian testing? | 09:36 |
| Psi-Jack | For one. "Stable" is the key. Kubuntu/Ubuntu updates every 6 months. Debian hasn't updated a full version in 2 years. | 09:37 |
| Nilisco | When did sarge come out? | 09:37 |
| quinn | actually debian JUST updated the full version | 09:38 |
| Psi-Jack | Oh wait, I was wrong. Apparently there was a release just in Dec 20th, 2005. | 09:38 |
| Psi-Jack | But still. :p | 09:38 |
| quinn | the ubuntu etc. instaler, for instance, is more or less the same as the current debian stable installer | 09:38 |

| Psi-Jack | Why does Kubuntu's installation fail, trying to install the kernel? It's worked for me, ONLY when I have a /boot and / partition, but when I add in /usr, /var, and /home or more, it fails. | 09:52 |
| quinn | Psi-Jack: are you getting any errors? | 09:53 |
| pointwood | supertijano: the current amaroK does it too | 09:53 |
| Psi-Jack | It's saying basically, it couldn't install the kernel, and to read the /target/var/log/bootstrap.log, which doesn't exist. | 09:53 |
| pointwood | do a /media in Konversation | 09:53 |

| pointwood | supertijano: but it sounds like they are fixing a lot of crash bugs in the 1.4 version, so I hope that will be better | 10:00 |

| ubijtsa | nat: no, I am still using Breezy, so 2.6.12 kernel | 10:00 |

| pointwood | k | 10:08 |
| quinn | ubijtsa: it's actually a fairly useful script, it tests for interactivity and returns if none, then it adjusts the lines and columns variables and sets a prompt based on where you may be chrooted, it has a commented section to set titles of xterms to user@hostname:pwd | 10:08 |

| === puckman [n=gerard@dynamic-62-56-40-24.park-s46b.dslaccess.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| supertijano | I don't understand too much about these packages anyway. | 10:12 |
| supertijano | I know a lot of distributions have their own suffix, and then there's compiling from source and I think .rpm | 10:13 |

| rance | thats true to an exent, but when you cant buy old network cards anymore, some of your "old stable" must give way to "new tricky" | 10:45 |
| Psi-Jack | supertijano: No | 10:45 |
| supertijano | Really? I always get Gentoo and Debian mixed up. :/ | 10:45 |
| jpatrick | how can one do that? | 10:45 |

| mornfall | quinn: (eg, you almost never want to dist-upgrade stable machines (servers)... just upgrade to security fixes... and dist-upgrade to a new stable release :) | 11:25 |
| Foodcoman | I am at the reboot phase now. | 11:25 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: you can upgrade to 3.5.1, it shouldn't affect your gnome part | 11:25 |
| mornfall | thompa: your faith in kubuntu is amusing :-) | 11:25 |
| Foodcoman | rance: Rebooting | 11:25 |
| rance | well, I hope that works | 11:25 |
| __mikem | ook | 11:25 |
| Red_Herring | any idea if dapper will ship w/ xgl? | 11:25 |
| Red_Herring | or if it will even have xgl available? | 11:25 |
| quinn | mornfall: I find faith in any computer system disturbing :) | 11:25 |
| rance | mornfall said "amusing" at first glance, i thought it was AMAZING | 11:25 |
| Foodcoman | rance: Using default 5.10 Breezy Final install CD..... | 11:26 |

| thompa | !kde3.5 | 11:28 |
| ubotu | (you might want !kde3.5.1) To upgrade to KDE3.5, Follow the instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php (add the deb... line to your sources.list). Then "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade". | 11:28 |

| __mikem | probably not | 11:28 |
| dell500 | is the new kde is stable? | 11:28 |
| rance | on first install, thats normal | 11:28 |
| hatake_kakashi | dell500: you wish | 11:28 |
| thompa | can someone tell me if the upgrade to 3.5 has changed? | 11:29 |
| dell500 | thought so | 11:29 |

| __mikem | hatake_kakashi does that mean no? | 11:29 |
| hatake_kakashi | __mikem: not all things are expected to work well | 11:29 |
| dell500 | __mikem, i think so | 11:29 |

| david | hello, If I install the kubuntu dapper beta, will it be possible to update to dapper 'stable' when it is released? | 11:30 |
| __mikem | I never use beta software | 11:31 |
| Red_Herring | __mikem, ever use google products? | 11:31 |
| visik7 | david: yes | 11:31 |
| david | __mikem: I don't need it for real use, just to play with :) | 11:31 |
| Red_Herring | gmail, google news, video? | 11:31 |
| Red_Herring | they are beta | 11:31 |
| thompa | !kde3.5.1 | 11:31 |
| ubotu | To upgrade to KDE3.5.1, Follow the instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-351.php (add the deb... line to your sources.list). Then "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade". | 11:31 |
| david | visik7: ok thanks visik7 | 11:31 |
| __mikem | Red_Herring no | 11:31 |
| Foodcoman | rance: root=/dev/mapper/Ubuntu-root ro quiet splash | 11:31 |
| __mikem | why | 11:32 |
| thompa | so I want 3.5.1 I guess | 11:32 |
| Foodcoman | rance: Thanks for all the help, I am going to have to google till I finde this one. Thanks again. | 11:33 |
| __mikem | !mepis | 11:33 |
| ubotu | Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, __mikem | 11:33 |
| __mikem | it used to have a definition for that | 11:34 |
| UFO | if debian would be a bit more up to date it would be number one to power users... the ubuntu got too much conf for beginners | 11:34 |
| hatake_kakashi | UFO: ever considered about testing/unstable packages from debian? :) | 11:35 |
| visik7 | the only thing that I don't like in config in ubuntu is networking | 11:35 |
| __mikem | networking ubuntu is easy | 11:35 |
| UFO | hatake_kakashi: yes but there was also lot of depency problems | 11:35 |
| visik7 | __mikem: so u can tell me why /etc/init.d/networking stop doesn't kill dhclient ? | 11:36 |
| __mikem | Why do you need it to? | 11:36 |
| hatake_kakashi | UFO: that's where you are on your own, enabling universe/multiverse and from there on its mostly trial-and-error, or make-or-break parts | 11:36 |
| visik7 | why do u want to know ? | 11:36 |

| __mikem | because stoping dhclient doesn't seem like something that NEEDS to be done | 11:37 |
| __mikem | as far as why it doesn't, its probably a permissions problem | 11:37 |
| visik7 | from root ? | 11:37 |
| visik7 | I need to restart networking sometimes | 11:37 |
| __mikem | are you running as root when you do it | 11:37 |
| hatake_kakashi | dhclient has to be run from super-user, unless you do sudo or suid | 11:37 |
| visik7 | running as root | 11:37 |

| thompa | is kde 3.5 considered stable in kubuntu? | 11:38 |

| __mikem | gee I wonder why | 11:40 |
| UFO | thompa: do you need the instructions? | 11:40 |
| visik7 | dcwckd: yes | 11:41 |
| thompa | UFO: do you know where the import kmail function is? | 11:41 |
| dcwckd | why | 11:41 |
| visik7 | dcwckd: this is why I switch back to gaim | 11:41 |
| thompa | no I think i was running dapper lol | 11:41 |
| __mikem | for one thing, kde3.5.1 is unstable still from what I hear, and we all know that microsoft does everything it can to make sure anything it produces doesn't work well with linux | 11:41 |
| UFO | thompa: no. sorry :( | 11:41 |
| thompa | UFO: thats ok, I think its an extra package | 11:42 |

| visik7 | _sam: wfm | 11:44 |
| arrinmurr | _sam: do you try to upgrade everything at once? | 11:44 |
