| leafw | Calilasseia: type control+alt+F1 and go to a tty an start doing what you need | 01:14 |

| leafw | what you may want to do is to start as "single user mode" | 01:15 |
| jindiaz | hey man thanks for the help btw | 01:15 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: do you have in the boot loader options to boot in "safe mode" ? | 01:16 |
| leafw | jindiaz: just type control+alt+F1 to F6, any, then login at the prompt | 01:16 |
| Calilasseia | My options are straight boot, and boot into something called "recovery mode" ... neither work ... | 01:16 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: ok, live CD time then. | 01:16 |
| Calilasseia | Recovery mode gives me the option to login as root, but since the root password is disabled, that's useless .... | 01:17 |

| rysiek|pl | thx | 01:23 |

| leafw | I am not that un-n00b at all, I've only been running linux for about a year. All my experience is from FreeBSD (+4 years) | 01:26 |
| rysiek|pl | leafw: I'm with Linux for about 3 years now. but 1,5was lost with Mandrake :/ | 01:26 |

| rysiek|pl | literally | 01:27 |
| Random_Transit | heh...mandrake | 01:27 |
| leafw | rpm systems! Never worked well for me. | 01:27 |

| Random_Transit | rpm is a broken system | 01:27 |
| rysiek|pl | rpm is not a system at all :) | 01:27 |
| Random_Transit | mandrake/driva almost made me switch back to windows | 01:27 |
| Random_Transit | it was my first distro | 01:27 |

| Calilasseia | Hello, back again .... | 01:31 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: live CD ? | 01:31 |
| Calilasseia | Now that was WEIRD ... I booted from the Live CD and THE SAME THING HAPPENED ... X server just crashed .... | 01:31 |
| rysiek|pl | Random_Transit: don't believe leafw. Debian Just Stays The Same For Ever(tm) :) | 01:31 |
| Random_Transit | wimpies, you have to add it to your /etc/fstab | 01:31 |
| rysiek|pl | Random_TRansit: tried setting up php5 in Sarge - repos? what repos?.. :] | 01:31 |
| leafw | Random_Transit: php5? That is rocket science for debian | 01:32 |
| wimpies | I tried but sometimes I get sdf1 or sde1 and so I do not know what to put as device in the fstab | 01:32 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: juaz. You have a problem with the graphics card then? That doesn't make sense. | 01:32 |
| Random_Transit | usually it's /dev/sda1 | 01:32 |
| clem_yeats | depends if there are other usb stuff plugged. | 01:33 |
| Random_Transit | yeah | 01:33 |
| clem_yeats | and on which usb sock.. | 01:33 |
| Calilasseia | Hmm, it's possible, but if i had a problem with the graphics card, I wouldn't be able to boot Windows either .... | 01:33 |
| wimpies | random_transit : I have other usb devices (external disk) | 01:33 |
| Calilasseia | And I've just booted successfully and loaded Trillian to continue chatting ... | 01:33 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: depends if windows is using the same instructions that linux is (may be different subsets) | 01:33 |
| wimpies | I read somewhere that udev should take care of that but I do not know how to do it | 01:33 |
| Random_Transit | what i do in that case is browse to your /dev directory, and just try mounting one sda* device after another | 01:34 |
| Calilasseia | If I remember correctly, my Linux install uses 1280x960 for the desktop, but I only use 1024x768 for Windows .... | 01:34 |
| clem_yeats | wimpies : did you try adding /dev/sdf1 and sde1 to your /etc/fstab ? | 01:34 |
| Calilasseia | Thing is I had a graphics card glitch in Windows earlier this morning and had to reinstall the drivers .... | 01:35 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: but the live CD comes loaded with all possible screen resolutions in the world | 01:35 |
| Calilasseia | So why did my live CD boot crash? | 01:35 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: why didn't you start there, ehem ehem. | 01:35 |
| wimpies | I could but then I would have to add b c d e f g h and so on too because I never know on which sdx1 the device will become availab le | 01:35 |
| clem_yeats | lol | 01:35 |
| leafw | Calilasseia: the windows drivers may have changed some options in the graphics card's nvram | 01:36 |
| Random_Transit | wimpies, is it plugged into a hub? | 01:36 |
| wimpies | isn't that what udev should take care of ? map a plugged device to some fixed loc ation ? | 01:36 |
| Calilasseia | Oh bugger .... | 01:36 |
| wimpies | no directly into the PC | 01:36 |
| Random_Transit | ok | 01:36 |

| jindiaz | well i got thru the ctrl alt f1 | 01:39 |
| jindiaz | then when i typed in the reinstall xorg, it wouldnt | 01:40 |
| leafw | jindiaz: and if that was unexpected, I would replace the HD also. | 01:40 |
| leafw | jindiaz: what message did apt-get give you ? | 01:40 |

| jindiaz | no i didnt run it | 01:41 |
| Random_Transit | what filesystem? | 01:41 |
| jindiaz | i didnmt knoe whut id be looking for | 01:41 |
| jindiaz | and itsd from 2004 | 01:41 |
| leafw | jindiaz: if you didn't run it, how can you know if your partitions are ok. | 01:41 |
| jindiaz | because i would know whut an ok partition looks like | 01:41 |
| jindiaz | ~wouldnt i mean | 01:41 |
| leafw | jindiaz: read the manual on fsck and use it to check and repair your system, man | 01:42 |
| leafw | you can run fsck in a "safe" mode that only checks, doesn't actually do anything. | 01:42 |
| jindiaz | butttttttttt why am i repairing something? im on the computer we are talking abt ryght now | 01:42 |
| leafw | jindiaz: the -N flag | 01:42 |
| leafw | jindiaz: you said the Xorg would not launch ? | 01:43 |
| jindiaz | reinsatlling it no, it didnt | 01:43 |
| jindiaz | is it because im trying to put a video card into a comp with a built in video? | 01:44 |
| jindiaz | i dunno it works fine with the builtin, obviosuly as im on it ryght now, but with the other card it just hangs there | 01:44 |
| jindiaz | but there is picture and all that | 01:44 |

| leafw | I assume ssh, otherwise XD what a joke, no remote managing. | 06:25 |
| evox | Its pretty good | 06:25 |
| Red_Herring | any chance of overheating those things if it was a server? | 06:25 |
| evox | Nope | 06:25 |
| evox | I can leve my Xbox on for Seven Hours or so before it even starts to overhead | 06:26 |
| evox | heat* | 06:26 |
| Red_Herring | well | 06:26 |

| patrix | wish me luck guys ;) | 06:26 |
| leafw | evox: my PC stays on for years without overheating | 06:26 |
| leafw | weeks rendering Blender movies | 06:26 |
| evox | Oh welll.......If its In an open space area it shouldnt overhead | 06:26 |
| Red_Herring | my server has been up for 54 days now... can an XBOX live that long? | 06:26 |
| evox | heat* | 06:26 |
| evox | yea...... | 06:26 |
| evox | Mines lived for two years | 06:26 |
| Red_Herring | on consistantly | 06:26 |
| evox | Not connnsistantly | 06:27 |
| Red_Herring | i mean, i know many of them have had heating problems | 06:27 |
| Red_Herring | so its not good for a server, oh well | 06:27 |

| evox | My xbox does just fine | 06:27 |
| Red_Herring | not new xboxes, old ones | 06:27 |
| Red_Herring | damn, ive been up too long | 06:28 |
| evox | Mine does just fine | 06:28 |
| Red_Herring | hrm | 06:28 |
| evox | I just Turn the Fan up as High as it will go and let it run | 06:28 |
| evox | keep it in a Wide Open Area and let it go | 06:28 |
| Red_Herring | hrm... | 06:28 |
| evox | Its pretty sweet if you add a HDD upgrade | 06:28 |
| Red_Herring | how fast are those CPUs? | 06:28 |
| Red_Herring | 500mhz? | 06:28 |
| evox | ive got a 250 gig in my xbox | 06:28 |
| evox | Its a Pentium 3 733mhz processer | 06:29 |
| regeya | Random Capitalization is Not a Form of Emphasis, unless Your Name is Benjamin Franklin. | 06:29 |
| evox | Get over it | 06:29 |
| leafw | and how expensive is an xbox, compared to an equivalent PC ? | 06:29 |
| Red_Herring | lol, thats EXACTLY the same as my server right now | 06:29 |
| evox | An xbox.....right now is about 150bucks | 06:29 |
| evox | the Mod is Free | 06:29 |
| Red_Herring | leafw: im my case, both are 0 | 06:29 |
| evox | and the HDD depends to you | 06:29 |
| Red_Herring | (trash) | 06:29 |
| leafw | $150 !? For a server! Not even a mac mini is that cheap | 06:30 |
| evox | lol | 06:30 |
| Red_Herring | a server? I found mine in the trash! | 06:30 |
| evox | LOL | 06:30 |

| evox | Cant get it to power on for the life of me | 06:30 |

| Red_Herring | leafw: its a miniATX mobo | 06:30 |
| leafw | xD | 06:31 |
| leafw | ok | 06:31 |
| Red_Herring | i dun got a good case for it | 06:31 |
| leafw | I found my first server in the trash too | 06:31 |
| Red_Herring | now i got a 2600+ | 06:31 |
| leafw | it had windows 95 in french inside (I was living in Spain then), quite odd | 06:31 |
| Red_Herring | im wondering if i should use that | 06:31 |
| regeya | evox, don't know if that one uses the 3.6v battery, but check that, and check the apple website to see how to reset the pmu on that sucker | 06:31 |
| evox | Ok will do | 06:32 |
| evox | Its Fecking thick though | 06:32 |
| Red_Herring | right now my server is crammed into the corner of my room, giving off an annoying buzzing sound | 06:32 |
| Red_Herring | rather a humming sound | 06:32 |
| evox | lol | 06:32 |
| regeya | up until jobs came back apple built great hardware. some of this decade's stuff is ok tho | 06:32 |
| evox | Ill give you some advice though..... | 06:32 |
| Red_Herring | but i got this HUGE case for a motherboard that takes up literally 1/4 the space | 06:32 |
| evox | Dont run any Linux Distro on the Xbox that has KDE as the interface | 06:33 |
| Red_Herring | xD | 06:33 |
| regeya | o_O | 06:33 |
| Red_Herring | yea | 06:33 |

| evox | Damn Small Linux? | 06:33 |
| Red_Herring | at full boot w/ fluxbox and all, it takes up 12mb | 06:33 |
| Red_Herring | yea | 06:33 |
| evox | On the xbox it takes 50 mbs | 06:33 |
| evox | under a frugal Install | 06:34 |

| evox | Ive never tried it but its supposed | 06:41 |
| DaSkreech | I assume you mean the PS3 and not Kubuntu :-D | 06:41 |
| prower | evox: That'd be interesting, FreeBSD I'd like to try...it's an incredibly clean and stable operating system | 06:41 |
| Red_Herring | DaSkreech: hrm, i sure hope so | 06:41 |
| evox | go to www.xbox-linux.org | 06:42 |

| Red_Herring | as well as to polish certain other features of it | 06:53 |

| prower | That's what I liked about FreeBSD, the quality control is excellent | 06:53 |
| leafw | or more | 06:53 |
| Red_Herring | DaSkreech: i assume so | 06:54 |
| leafw | prower: FreeBSD will never be replaced in my servers | 06:54 |

| prower | Konqueror in 3.5 is quite a capable browser :> I use it exclusively now | 07:15 |
| DaSkreech | Like Openoffice having a KDE pack of icons | 07:15 |
| Red_Herring | its very nice | 07:15 |
| Red_Herring | konquer 3.5 is the first stable browser to pass ACID2 | 07:15 |
| Red_Herring | i tried it myself, its true | 07:16 |
| Red_Herring | its so funny how badly IE fucks it up | 07:16 |
| === DaSkreech never got the hoopla about ACID2 | ||
| kosh | safari and konqueror both pass | 07:16 |
| DaSkreech | And opera | 07:16 |
| kosh | opera 9 beta passes now also | 07:16 |
| kosh | however it is not a final release yet | 07:17 |
| Red_Herring | kosh: but safari and opera's versions havent been released yet | 07:17 |
| === Snake__ is now known as Snake[Sleep] | ||
| prower | DaSkreech: ACID2 isn't really necessarily that important, I guess :> It's kind of a means of standardizing how bad HTML should look | 07:17 |
| kosh | safari is still not released? | 07:17 |
| Red_Herring | the version that passes ACID 2 | 07:17 |
| Red_Herring | i dont think | 07:17 |
| Red_Herring | i dunno | 07:17 |
| leafw | prower: konqueror is the only reason I use KDE ! drag and drop from ssh to ftp to ftp tp ssh to ... it just works | 07:17 |
| kosh | umm acid2 tests a lot of what should be done also | 07:17 |
| kosh | like transparency support for pngs | 07:17 |
| kosh | hover on non a elements | 07:17 |
| kosh | fixed positioning | 07:17 |
| DaSkreech | konqueror is awesome | 07:17 |
| kosh | correct handling of fixed and floats | 07:17 |
| Red_Herring | leafw: i love how KDE has FULL ssh and ftp support EVERYWHERE | 07:17 |
| DaSkreech | Killer app in most cases | 07:17 |
| === DaSkreech misses extensions though | ||
| kosh | acid2 may test bad behavior also but it tests a heck of a lot of good behavior | 07:18 |
| leafw | yeah, the kde guys did a great work with the underlying i/o structure of the whole thing | 07:18 |
| prower | kosh: Ahh, I see...I wasn't aware of that, thanks | 07:18 |
| Red_Herring | man, KHTML rocks | 07:18 |
| kosh | opera is pissing me off though | 07:18 |
| prower | leafw: Oh, definitely :> It's nice to be able to cut and paste between entirely different types of servers with the same interface | 07:18 |
| Red_Herring | (safari = KHTML as well as Konqueror) | 07:18 |
| leafw | indeed | 07:19 |
| leafw | its helpful, convenient, time-saver, what not. | 07:19 |
| Red_Herring | kosh: i like the new one, devel release 9 | 07:19 |
| Red_Herring | but for god sakes, DONT STEAL FF PEOPLE | 07:19 |
| Red_Herring | STEAL THE IE USERS! | 07:19 |
| kosh | http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/Opera9Bugs/ look in there for getElementById | 07:20 |
| prower | Red_Herring: Most of them are willing to give it away if it means it'll get rid of the spyware ;> I can't see how people use Windows day to day without a scanner for every sort of vulnerability out there | 07:20 |
| kosh | it is why I can't support opera on my web editing interfaces | 07:20 |
| kosh | that bug has been reported for a long time and they have left it broken to be compatible with IE | 07:20 |

| Red_Herring | hm, i like konqueror, and i applaud apple for helping teh OSS community | 07:21 |
| Red_Herring | or at least the safari team anyway | 07:21 |
| kosh | konqueror is probably the most standards compliant rendering engine out there | 07:21 |
| kosh | it is far more strict then firefox and opera are | 07:21 |
| Red_Herring | if you ask me, its the fastest too | 07:22 |
| kosh | and if something does not work in it the odds are the code is broken | 07:22 |
| Red_Herring | its not the most stable | 07:22 |
| kosh | that is VERY good for development | 07:22 |
| Red_Herring | but its definently fast and accurate | 07:22 |
| kosh | hmm I have not had konqueror crash on me in years | 07:22 |
| leafw | hum, I'd say konqueror is stable, but not the fastest. | 07:22 |
| Red_Herring | really? | 07:22 |
| Red_Herring | well | 07:22 |
| Red_Herring | its stable | 07:22 |
| prower | Red_Herring: That's true, I've certainly had Konqueror crash on occasion with some pages...but never enough for it to be a serious problem :> | 07:22 |
| Red_Herring | but when you get a JS error | 07:22 |
| Red_Herring | it DIES | 07:22 |

| JavaGeek | can someone tell me what breezy-backports mean? | 07:23 |
| kosh | prower: I avoid the ajax crap | 07:23 |
| Red_Herring | JavaGeek: a backport is an app that was written with newer libraries, but has been ported to use existing ones that are not up to date | 07:24 |
| prower | JavaGeek: These are programs that are ported back from the next, unreleased version of Ubuntu basically...not all of them, but a few | 07:24 |
| kosh | prower: and I don't use it in writing professional web apps either and my customers are fine with that | 07:24 |
| Red_Herring | !backport | 07:24 |
| ubotu | rumour has it, backports is Add "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main universe multiverse restricted" (without the ") to /etc/apt/sources.list. More info @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports | 07:24 |
| kosh | prower: the editing interfaces we have delivered for them just work | 07:24 |
| leafw | prower: AJAX won't live to long, in my opinion. | 07:24 |
| Red_Herring | leafw: i disaggree | 07:24 |
| prower | kosh: Really? I get a lot of demand for it, basically due to the (slight) reduction in server load if it's applied properly | 07:24 |

| Red_Herring | ajax provides very useful and powerful tools | 07:24 |
| prower | (Which is the only reason I'm trying to learn Rails now, I think I like Python better :>) | 07:24 |
| kosh | my customers are mostly larger businesses | 07:24 |
| DaSkreech | How does AJAX compare to XForms? | 07:25 |
| kosh | nothing to do with each other | 07:25 |
| Red_Herring | just look at the ajax apps out there | 07:25 |
| kosh | ajax is a way of doing asynchronous calls and updates from the server | 07:25 |
| leafw | AJAX is nothing new by the way, it's just a new buzzword for javascript apps | 07:25 |
| DaSkreech | Right | 07:25 |
| Red_Herring | its insane, they got WORD PROCESSING thats basically abiword written in AJAX | 07:25 |
| JavaGeek | ah, so basically if I found a newer version of the program i'm looking for on breezy-backport, it means it's safe? | 07:25 |
| leafw | what won't last is the hype | 07:25 |
| prower | leafw: Oh, yes...it's an invented term for something that's been around but never really used intensively | 07:25 |
| DaSkreech | And XForms is a way of doing client side actions and validations of server scripts | 07:26 |
| kosh | just because you can do it does not make it a good idea | 07:26 |
| prower | Now it is, of course, but I'm sure that bubble will burst eventually :> | 07:26 |

| DaSkreech | Doesn't mean it will go away though | 07:26 |
| DaSkreech | It will just stop being interesting | 07:26 |
| Red_Herring | i dunno, we will see | 07:26 |
| kosh | it will mostly go away though | 07:27 |
| kosh | part of buzzword stuff is that it gets abused | 07:27 |
| prower | DaSkreech: Oh no, and it shouldn't...there's lots of things that it -is- good for, but now we're at the point where people are slapping together rails and turbogears pages with AJAX just because...well, just because :> | 07:27 |
| kosh | if you require javascript on the front end of your website you lose between 10-20% of the visitors and if you have it for ecommerce you end up breaking it for closer to 30% of people | 07:27 |
| DaSkreech | Yeah I know :) And dumb apps will die of course | 07:27 |
| kosh | our customers would probably sue us if we cost them 10% of their customers | 07:27 |
| DaSkreech | kosh: No like it can't degrade | 07:28 |
| DaSkreech | not even | 07:28 |
| kosh | ajax works fine for a backend but it is a stupid idea for a frontend | 07:28 |
| kosh | DaSkreech: the more complex demands you make of a client the more likely it is to fail | 07:28 |
| DaSkreech | As I said not like it can't degrade gracefully | 07:29 |
| kosh | it can't | 07:29 |
| kosh | the clients are often BROKEN | 07:29 |
| prower | I like rails and turbogears moreso because of the SQL abstraction :> It makes it a lot easier for future developers to make sweeping changes to the database/interface/models and migrate the old data seamlessly | 07:29 |
| kosh | you might be able to make it so it would work theoretically and degrade | 07:29 |
| prower | Rails just has an odd syntax...it's clear but for some reason I can never remember the rules :> | 07:29 |
| DaSkreech | GMail works even if you turn off JS | 07:29 |
| Red_Herring | really? | 07:29 |
| leafw | gmail works on lynx-ssl | 07:29 |
| Red_Herring | the html verson does | 07:29 |
| kosh | however it does not often degrade in practice because of the spyware, internet security etc that people have | 07:29 |
| leafw | which is nice. | 07:29 |
| kosh | the problem is that while it may work without javascript, if you hand something javascript and it thinks it supports it but something on the system has broken it then your app will break | 07:30 |

| frank__ | leafw: prower: is the sudden gcj development due in part because openoffice integrates java stuff and people wanted it to stay completely free? | 07:43 |
| kosh | it is not sudden | 07:44 |
| leafw | frank__: I am sure it helped | 07:44 |
| kosh | I know some of the people working on it | 07:44 |
| kosh | and it was very close to being able to run the java that openoffice needed when openoffice used it | 07:44 |
| leafw | kosh: natively, you mean. | 07:45 |
| prower | frank__: I wouldn't be able to say for sure :> But it's very likely motivation for at least some of the developers, perhaps even for the OpenOffice people themselves | 07:45 |
| leafw | by the way, jython is about the best thing that could evenr happen to java, makes it so trivial ... one can use the java gui classes like wxpython | 07:46 |
| leafw | (sort of) | 07:46 |
| frank__ | prower: I know that at some point Stallman said he wanted a java free OOo because a dependancy on sun java was unacceptable. Then he said that if gnu java can do it instead, it would be fine | 07:46 |
| kosh | I prefer python since I find the syntax is just so much easier to get right | 07:47 |
| leafw | frank__: so it's easier to write a gnu java than to transform the java code in OOo to c/c++ ? xDD | 07:47 |
| leafw | fearful codebase | 07:47 |
| frank__ | leafw: I don't know about that... but alot of OOo developpers are from Sun and they like java alot;) | 07:47 |
| kosh | I have consistently ended up with vastly fewer bugs in my python code over the last 7 years or so then in anything else | 07:47 |
| prower | frank__: Aha...that wouldn't surprise me, especially after his whole "Java Trap" writings :> I personally think gcj's a good idea because there's a definite need for a solid, cross-platform and open-source language of Java's type | 07:48 |
| leafw | kosh: same here. And errors are spotted immediately. | 07:48 |
| prower | kosh: I've been trying to learn both python and ruby at once, to see which fits my needs better ;> Unfortunately I just wind up mixing up the syntax between them | 07:48 |
| kosh | if item in something: for item in something: dosomethingwith(item) there are no off by 1 errors etc | 07:48 |
| leafw | frank__: true, I keep forgetting OOo is nothing else but StarOffice | 07:48 |
| leafw | kosh: and negative indexes! Why java doesn't have those ! | 07:49 |
| kosh | I still don't get why java could not have used vastly simpler syntax for stuff | 07:49 |
| leafw | kosh: jython xD | 07:49 |
| leafw | it works | 07:49 |
| kosh | if substring in string if key in dict if item in list if item in tuple etc | 07:49 |
| kosh | god it makes it so dang simple | 07:50 |
| prower | kosh: Legacy, I suppose :> It was built from the ground up one way and became very difficult to change later | 07:50 |
| kosh | if you want to know if item a is in item b you just do if itema in itemb: | 07:50 |
| kosh | how can you screw that up? | 07:50 |
| kosh | why is it that each one of those is different in java | 07:50 |
| kosh | prower: it was built to be like c++ | 07:50 |
| kosh | prower: and so they copied the c++ way of iteration | 07:50 |
| leafw | one can make java GUIs like : | 07:50 |
| kosh | prower: all the modern languages do a better job | 07:51 |
| leafw | f = JFrame("Test", size=Dimension(400,400), \ | 07:51 |
| leafw | ... windowClosing=lambda msg: IJ.showMessage("Closing the window!"), \ | 07:51 |
| leafw | ... visible=1, background=Color.yellow) | 07:51 |
| prower | kosh: Yes, and that was probably a good idea at the time ;> Whereas with ruby, for example, iterations can be done in a line | 07:51 |
| kosh | prower: python, perl, lisp, haskell etc all have vastly better iteration | 07:51 |
| prower | (And python as well of course, but I'm more familiar with the former) | 07:51 |
| kosh | prower: you can do that with one line of python also I was just showing the most simple obvious way | 07:51 |
| kosh | prower: there is a lot to be said for code that is correct by inspection, that it is just so simple it can't contain bugs since there is nowhere for them to hide | 07:52 |
| leafw | kosh: but now with generics they haven't copied python's simplicity: the java language has gone into weird ways of its own. | 07:52 |
| DaSkreech | Openoffice needs to stop being paid for | 07:52 |
| kosh | DaSkreech: huh? | 07:52 |
| prower | kosh: Ahh yes, I see what you mean :> The syntax of python does seem slightly easier to understand than ruby, at least to me...but rails has quite a lot of things built into it, and that's the product that people are demanding I write things in ;> | 07:52 |
| frank__ | DaSkreech: what do you mean? | 07:52 |
| prower | Turbogears also looks nice, but it's in alpha and lacking in features in some respects | 07:52 |
| kosh | prower: ah I do all my stuff in zope | 07:52 |
| kosh | prower: the security framework is just superior to everything else I have ever seen | 07:53 |
| DaSkreech | If Sun would stop paying for most of the development and they realized they NEED a community they would be doing a lot better | 07:53 |
| DaSkreech | kosh: Yeah we use zope for everythign as well | 07:53 |
| prower | kosh: Oh, really? That's one I've never used, how's the templating like in it? | 07:53 |
| leafw | DaSkreech: companies are the main funding agencies for FOSS, ... | 07:53 |
| DaSkreech | Yes I know | 07:54 |
| kosh | zope security structure is fine grained enough you can do per class,functoin,attribute security controls on things both running and in the database | 07:54 |
| leafw | including linux, freebsd, apache ... | 07:54 |
| CheeseBurgerMan | DaSkreech: I know what you mean - When I went to OpenOffice.org, it didn't have a very good community-feel to it (if you know what I mean...) | 07:54 |
| DaSkreech | But if AOL hadn't cut the cords on Mozilla they would not have gotten the code base sorted out to where it is today | 07:54 |
| kosh | hmm I am not sure about how to describe the templating, I have not used almost any other systems, the security was not optional and nothing else had it | 07:54 |
| prower | kosh: Interesting...perhaps I'll have to take a look at it, the name has never come up...is there any built-in support for AJAX/JSON | 07:54 |
| leafw | DaSkreech: a monster like OOo would have most likely died and become split into parts. | 07:55 |
| kosh | prower: not by default but I think there are addon products for it | 07:55 |
| DaSkreech | leafw: Well maybe is should :) | 07:55 |

| leafw | DaSkreech: well, take the code and get started xD | 07:55 |
| prower | kosh: That's good to know, at least :> I don't really care either way, but the people all caught up in the "web 2.0" nonsense are asking for it non-stop | 07:56 |
| DaSkreech | See thats the problem! | 07:56 |
| leafw | DaSkreech: can be worse than cutting Xorg into pieces | 07:56 |
| prower | (Even for things that don't make sense) | 07:56 |
| DaSkreech | There are people who agree that XOrg should be seperate | 07:56 |
| leafw | prower: what kindof requests are you getting ? | 07:56 |
| DaSkreech | OO.o has it as one application and don't really care what anyone says thats how it's going to be | 07:57 |
| DaSkreech | All tied together with Java cause they have daddy taking care of all the bills and PR | 07:57 |
| prower | leafw: Basically they're all looking for something with a templating system that isn't too confusing for the designers, relatively simple ajax support (part of their design apparently), and the ability to easily change between database servers if need by | 07:57 |
| prower | Rails seems to have all of that so far and has hence been getting the most attention from them, but I'm open to any good option :> | 07:58 |
| leafw | doesn't sound that different from "web 1.0" | 07:58 |
| === crodler_ [n=crodler@136.Red-80-35-111.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| leafw | a web 1.0 html/css/php/mysql approach I mean. | 07:58 |
| kosh | prower: I do know that we have gone up against ruby on rails companies and been able to get done in 2 weeks what they said they could not get done in 3 months and so they lost the contracts | 07:58 |
| prower | leafw: That's true...the more technically minded folk suggest that it'll lower bandwidth by not having to reload pages just for a refresh for some information, but even that's pretty week | 07:59 |
| kosh | prower: I really like reuse and have built all of our code for the last 5 years to be reused and every single site uses the same version of all of our code | 07:59 |
| prower | kosh: Wow, that is very impressive...and that's the kind of thing they're looking for, especially since no one there (but me) knows any SQL | 07:59 |
| kosh | we use the built in zope object database | 07:59 |
| leafw | prower: with a good planning, yes, thw web 1.0 approach can be as low bandwidth as you want | 07:59 |
| kosh | however that does not make zope easy | 08:00 |
| kosh | you have to be very good at what you do or it will take you longer and you will make horrible solutions | 08:00 |
| DaSkreech | Nope It's powerful | 08:00 |
| DaSkreech | not easy | 08:00 |
| prower | leafw: That's true as well I suppose :> Web 2.0 isn't even a term I understand, really..it's almost identical to the one I've been using for years ;> | 08:00 |
| kosh | it pretty much has a vertical learning curve | 08:00 |
| leafw | prower: I'm afraid it's all marketing | 08:00 |
| prower | kosh: Hmm...that sounds ever so slightly discouraging ;> | 08:00 |
| kosh | I did not want to give you a false idea | 08:01 |
| DaSkreech | prower: It refers to handing over power to groups of people visiting the site | 08:01 |
| prower | leafw: That's true...I'm not looking forward to the day when commercial applications are "rented" over networks and websites, though that happens today to a certain extent | 08:01 |
| prower | DaSkreech: Hmm...I think I see what you mean | 08:01 |
| leafw | prower: "hummm saturated web design market ... let's make a new language + new approach that is cooked up from old stuff, and let's tell everyone that it's great and that they need it !" | 08:01 |
| kosh | if people use stuff that way they will deserve what they get | 08:02 |
| kosh | just like those that use gmail and their email is being subpoened by the government | 08:02 |
| leafw | xD just for not paying a few bucks a year to get their own server. | 08:02 |
| kosh | if you put your data on someone elses server then they control it no matter what | 08:03 |
| DaSkreech | Well if you put any data on a server without a bots.txt Google owns :) | 08:03 |
| prower | kosh: Yes, that's true...which makes me somewhat concerned about GMail ;> I've e-mailed my doctor a few times, then started getting spam and directed ads for medications I definitely don't want | 08:03 |
| DaSkreech | I forget there are ads in there | 08:05 |
| kosh | their definition of evil does not always fit mine | 08:05 |

| === Red_Herring is now known as Red_Herring|slee | ||
| DaSkreech | Red_Herring: It is? Oh No!! My Precious Data!!! | 08:06 |
| prower | So for anyone who uses Zope, how easily does it handle SQL? I know with rails et. al. it's generated automatically | 08:06 |
| === DaSkreech weeps as pics leak out to Google :) | ||
| === Red_Herring|slee is now known as RedHerring|Sleep | ||
| kosh | I don't even use zope with sql | 08:07 |
| RedHerring|Sleep | DaSkreech: :-P | 08:07 |
| kosh | you can though | 08:07 |
| kosh | however if you do that you lose some of the security | 08:07 |
| DaSkreech | RedHerring|Sleep: I knew but thanks though | 08:07 |
| === DaSkreech uses it with postgresql | ||
| prower | kosh: Oh, that's right, it has its own database :> Perhaps a better question would be what the syntax is like for dealing with that information | 08:07 |
| kosh | since a relational database can not keep the security at the level of an object database | 08:08 |

| VomiTron | hi there, in the process of downloading kubuntu atm, was wondering what kernel breezy comes with? | 08:10 |
| prower | Zope running under a chroot or something similar might be what they're looking for, assuming the templating language isn't too arcane and weird :> | 08:10 |
| prower | VomiTron: 2.6.12 I believe? | 08:11 |
| DaSkreech | Oh Cool XForms is a W3C recommendation | 08:11 |
| kosh | just run zope under its own userid | 08:11 |
| kosh | its won't allow reading or writing to the filesystem | 08:11 |
| DaSkreech | prower: It's pretty easy to learn | 08:11 |
| kosh | so run zope as its own user under an internal only port | 08:11 |
| VomiTron | been using slackware for a long while now, looking forward to a change :) | 08:11 |
| kosh | and then have apache proxy to that port | 08:11 |
| prower | kosh: Ahh, okay...I guess that could be a problem though, couldn't it? Like uploading big files to it might have considerable overhead | 08:11 |
| kosh | very nice setup that way | 08:12 |
| === nanane [n=nananehe@e176103164.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| kosh | our customers upload uo to 200M files without an issue | 08:12 |
| prower | VomiTron: That's what I started out on :> It was certainly nice, the refusal to move on and go 2.6 with the kernel kind of put me off | 08:12 |
| === scotty_b [n=chatzill@70-41-129-236.cust.wildblue.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| prower | kosh: Ahh, I see...this is good information to know, the marine lab that I'm working at could potentially be dealing with terabytes of imaging data | 08:12 |
| VomiTron | yep, that's why i'm switching... along with the refusal to goto x86_64 | 08:12 |
| VomiTron | i know i'm going to miss its package management though | 08:13 |
| DaSkreech | http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/2006/xforms-qr.html | 08:13 |
| prower | VomiTron: Well, I think that's just lack of resources...it is made by one guy after all, and one guy who hasn't been in the best of health for a while :> | 08:13 |
| VomiTron | yea, i think when he got sick and the project slowed to a grinding halt was kind of the beginning of the end :( | 08:14 |
| prower | Hmm...there's zope 2.9 and zope 3...I guess I'll install the newer one | 08:14 |
| DaSkreech | Zope3 is still an experiment I think | 08:14 |
| prower | VomiTron: Perhaps, I think it'll survive though :> There's still a surprising amount of people who are still interested in it...and there are spinoffs like Vector | 08:14 |
| kosh | hmm with terabytes of data you might be better off with use a relationaldb | 08:14 |
| kosh | it shoul dwork with that much data but I have not tested that | 08:14 |
| DaSkreech | Though I'm just wondering how a transactional system will handle terrabytes of data ... | 08:15 |
| VomiTron | yea i never had any luck with those spinoffs... slamd64 was ok, i thought vector was kinda crappy.... | 08:15 |
| prower | DaSkreech: Sorry, I should have been more specific :> These are files, raw dumps that are then interpreted by some old rickety program into SQL records | 08:15 |
| VomiTron | i do hope slack gets back on its feet again, i'd come running back to it for sure... in the mean time though i hope kubuntu works out for me as i'm unwilling to work with an rpm based distro | 08:16 |
| kosh | also I would definitely use a 64bit system so you can use more memory | 08:16 |
| prower | VomiTron: Well, nevertheless maybe you might want to try CentOS :> It is RPM based but it's very stable...I'm running Kubuntu and FreeBSD on two separate machines, Kubuntu makes for a nice OS all around | 08:16 |
| prower | FreeBSD made a good desktop but a phenomenal server | 08:17 |
| kosh | prower: unless you need the fine grained security of zope I would not use it for that application | 08:17 |
| VomiTron | i had so many problems with freebsd on my desktop | 08:17 |
| prower | kosh: Oh, really? Well, part of what they do want to write is a new authentication system...would Zope be useful for that, or would it be just as easy to keep track of user records in an SQL database as per usual? | 08:19 |
| VomiTron | does kubuntu load kdm by default? | 08:19 |
| prower | VomiTron: I did as well, right up until 6.0 came out :> Then everything worked | 08:19 |
| prower | (And yes, KDM is loaded by default) | 08:19 |

| kosh | umm | 08:29 |
| kosh | don't count that feature | 08:29 |

| tchize | xChomp: according to docs, dhclients is a layer2 application and so must do filtering to do his job. So this is commonly a false positive. The problem is, because dhclient always sniff network to od it's job, if it is compromised, you have no way to discover it easily :) | 10:24 |
| tchize | so to be sure systme is ok, you have to check the dhclient binary is sane :) | 10:25 |

| bobesponja | born3: yes, just boot it | 05:52 |
| Chousuke | Can you install from the live cd already? | 05:52 |
| Chousuke | without tricks I mean | 05:52 |
| bobesponja | Chousuke: yes but it's very unstable | 05:52 |
| born3 | bobesponja: its done i m right now usin the live cd.. | 05:52 |

| Chousuke | Debian is installable from almost anything if you know what you're doing :P | 05:53 |

| bobesponja | born3: yes I know it on the blog of the dev | 05:54 |
| bobesponja | born3: it's called expresso or something like that | 05:55 |

| kubunhelp | but not kubuntu :-( | 08:22 |
| l3m | kubunhelp: it's the same, actually ;) | 08:22 |

| kubunhelp | lol | 08:22 |
| === scotty_b [n=chatzill@70-41-129-236.cust.wildblue.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| kosh | because a more complex installer is more likely to fail | 08:22 |
| kosh | the ubuntu installer may not look pretty but it is very very easy | 08:22 |
| kosh | with few questions to answer | 08:22 |
| l3m | Red_Herring: because the debian installer works on almost any platform and is a nice piece of technology | 08:22 |
| kosh | and it will run on pretty much anything without error | 08:22 |
| l3m | i guess ;) | 08:22 |
| l3m | Red_Herring: and with suse, you'll need to install it every 6 months or so | 08:23 |

| l3m | Red_Herring: whereas kubuntu ( or any debain distro ) you need to do it once | 08:23 |
| Red_Herring | TOUCHE | 08:23 |
| kosh | that is one reason the debian installer has sucked so long | 08:23 |
| kosh | most of the people could not even remember installing it so nobody worked on it | 08:23 |
| l3m | hehe | 08:23 |
| Red_Herring | i actually like how fast and simple the ubuntu one is | 08:24 |
| kosh | when it did get work they decided to make it made it as simple as possible | 08:24 |
| Red_Herring | but suse is more welcoming, like "HEY, you just waisted money on this!" | 08:24 |

| l3m | Red_Herring: yeah well i'd want a nice installer too if i had to pay for something that other systems do better free | 08:24 |

| claire | l3m: That didn't fix the problem. However, I am working with gdm now, and my brain is tired, so I might yield defeat on this one for the meantime | 09:03 |
| jindiaz | lol | 09:03 |
| blah|patrick | nalioth: couldn someone simply download a about 1MB big driverfile and tell me what i have to do with it? | 09:04 |
| jindiaz | how is the console version?? | 09:04 |
| nalioth | blah|patrick: if you join #ubuntu-offtopic we can help you | 09:04 |
| blah|patrick | problem 1: no documentation or readme in it | 09:04 |
| blah|patrick | kk | 09:04 |
| KaoticEvil | claire: even with GDM, you should still be able to login to a KDE session... | 09:04 |
| claire | Yeah, it works fine that way. I would have liked to get kdm working so I got that 'warm inside' feeling but I'm pretty knackered now and could do with a rest! | 09:05 |
| claire | l3m: Thanks for the help | 09:05 |
| KaoticEvil | nalioth: that got it... make xconfig works now :) thanks | 09:05 |
| KaoticEvil | i dont know why i didnt try that... i rarely use adept... i prefer apt | 09:06 |
| l3m | claire: ok, yw ;) | 09:06 |

| Tm_T | !partitioning | 09:20 |
| ubotu | from memory, partitioning is best done using gparted, gparted, or fdisk. You must unmount a disk before it can be partitioned. Use the LiveCD for this. | 09:20 |
| jindiaz | and i just bought the acer 1916 widescreen 19" lcd | 09:20 |
| Tm_T | I bet another gparted is meant to be qtparted | 09:20 |

| vos_ck | It was only available in testing not in stable. | 09:49 |

| djk_ | noirequus: the question was, why is it a bad idea in your opinion. | 12:00 |
| Kyral | just no window decos | 12:00 |
| noirequus | djk_: it is explained on that page quite nicely. | 12:00 |

| rysiek|pl | andrewski: usplash-artwork, I guess | 12:01 |
| ompaul | djk_, well the thing is that if you want to ask that you should do so in a *-offtopic and remember that noone is obliged to answer, the thing is we provide support to the various *ubuntu distros the way they are made and have read the page sent to you and agree with its conclusions | 12:01 |

| rysiek|pl | andrewski: look at the USplashCustomizationHowTo wiki page | 12:02 |
