crimsunnot that Hobbsee didn't mention that, oh, 9 minutes ago08:05
Hobbseeno, not at all08:05
Hobbseepeople seem to want to be absolutely spoonfed today, when talking about creating their own distros08:06
crimsuntehe08:06
lnxkdeHobbsee: VLOS is not my distro08:06
lnxkdeHobbsee: www.vidalinux.com08:06
lnxkdeis a old distro the first gentoo based one08:06
Hobbseei mean, a) why?  and b)  if you're going to go to the bother of that, and fail, why not just fail earlier rather than later, and use that extra time to work on something you will succeed at?08:06
lnxkdebut KDE on it sucks08:06
Hobbseelnxkde: i'm also referrign to the other guy in -motu a while ago08:07
lnxkdeHobbsee: I just want to help the distro because Is from my home nation :)08:07
lnxkdeis the only distro from Puerto Rico08:07
Hobbseelnxkde: fair enough08:07
lnxkdeand it is nice :) but It need KDE help badly08:07
lnxkdehehe and since I have been using kubuntu for sometime08:08
lnxkdeI think kubuntu is the best role model to copy08:08
mhb_lnxkde: better improve (K)Ubuntu so that it will be as translated as the national distro08:08
lnxkdeI love kubuntu package selection :)08:08
Hobbseemhb_: that's the more sensible option, yes08:09
Hobbseemhb_: or do as the ichutux people do - have a metapackage of the stuff that they want in universe, and update that.08:09
Hobbseemhb_: i replied to your testing feisty stuff, btw08:10
mhb_Huahua: I've seen that, thanks08:10

lnxkdebut I dont know. 08:12
lnxkdeJucato: very funy08:12
Jucatojust kidding :)08:12
mhb_Hobbsee: I agree with you, there's no need to test anything yet (and won't be for quite some time), I just want to inform Testers that we could help out with this 08:12
Hobbseeright.  my sound is really screwed.  it's not just my speakers08:12
Hobbseemhb_: there's unmet deps, etc08:12
Hobbseebut yeah, not that much to test yet, i dont think08:13
lnxkdeHobbsee:  so kubuntu does not install the whole kdebase?08:14
lnxkdeI didnt know that08:14
Hobbseelnxkde: nope08:14
mhb_Hobbsee: I want to use this "ceasefire" - devel phase - to organize testers a bit, decide what we should work on for Feisty etc.08:15
Hobbseemhb_: sounds good to me08:15
lnxkdemhb_ :D08:16
lnxkdethankx guys08:16
lnxkdeI always hang out here and in kubuntu :)08:17
Jucatolnxkde: if you look into the depends of the kubuntu-desktop metapackage, you'll see which parts of KDE is installed08:17
lnxkdeJucato: yes08:17
lnxkdethat is why I asked08:17
lnxkde;)08:17
Jucato:)08:17
lnxkdeJucato: I started doing that in my KDE VLOS desktop but resulted ina big mess beause I didnt know what packages to install to make it a nice desktop08:18

lnxkdeemerge app app app app app app -b and done :)08:18
JucatoI install kde-core. the most basic KDE you can ever have. of course I needed to install a few more stuff to really get it going.08:19

lnxkdeJucato:  I always add a lot of apps 08:19
lnxkdebut I never install  the whole KDE08:19
lnxkdeis too bloated08:19
lnxkdehehe the current KDE of vlos has the whole KDE installed08:20
lnxkdekoversation is not there but kvirc08:20
Jucatowhoa... "kde" installs *everything*....08:20
Hobbseeindeed08:20
lnxkdeand a lot of awfull apps that I personally hate08:20
Jucatolnxkde: I guess it's because konvi isn't part of the main KDE. Like Amarok, it's an extragear app08:21

lnxkdeguys whant to sse my desktop?08:24
Jucatohi sredna :)08:24
srednaWhere can I find instructions on how to install kde4 on edgy? Apt gives up due to dependency problems08:24
Hobbseesredna: there wasnt info on kubuntu.org about that?08:24
=== Jucato takes note that sredna is a developer
srednaHobbsee: Nothing I can find08:25
Jucatosredna: the link I gave?08:25
crimsunhttp://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-3.80.1.php ?08:25
Hobbseethat's what i was thinking of08:26
lnxkdehttp://img90.imageshack.us/img90/825/lnxkdekdepd2.png08:26
srednacrimsun: As I said, apt gives in08:26
Hobbseesredna: that's not the latest kde 4 - that was only the crash release08:27
Hobbseethat's not the latest svn08:27
Hobbsees/crash/krash08:27
srednaHobbsee: I just try to install the packages that are in the default sources08:27
srednaHobbsee: The announcement claimed that kubuntu would be a good platform for kde4 development08:28
srednaBu8t appearantly, there are some rivers to cross first08:28
crimsunsredna: what "apt" messages?08:28
srednacrimsun: They are in danish, and too long for a irc channel08:29
crimsuna pastebin's fine08:29
srednaI can't remember the URL of one08:29
crimsunpaste.ubuntu-nl.org08:29
srednahttp://paste.debian.net/1575908:31
crimsunsredna: apt-cache policy python-qt408:34
srednacrimsun: The output makes no sense08:35
srednaBut in the search listing, it is displayed as 'iB'08:35
crimsunthere seems to be a missing deb line, since there's no valid reference to "the qt4 kdecopy packages"08:35
srednaWhic could mean 'blocked'?08:35
crimsunsredna: you'll want to ask Rid.dell about the Qt4 dependency issue08:37
crimsun(minus full stop)08:37
srednacrimsun: I will08:37
srednaSometime, for now I'll stop wasting my sunday08:37
Jucatosredna: yeah. enjoy your sunday. only comes once a week :)08:38
srednaIn gentoo there was something like package.provides, that allowed to solve such issues08:49
srednaIt appears that kubuntu installed some packages that depends on the standard qt4, which needs to be replaced with the kdecopy version08:50
srednaSo it's just plain old package manager brokenness08:50
srednaSo much for the almighty apt08:51

mhb_imbrandon: thanks. :o) Yes, I agree with you and Hobbsee, it's too early now but I want to get the organization part done before the actual testing part11:03
Jucatomhb_: definitely a great idea. I'm willing to use the 5GB partition I have setup for FAT32 just for testing next time :)11:04
imbrandonmhb_, yup definately11:08

Hobbseeupgrading being a nightmare12:20
Jucatoah :)12:20
Hobbseethe current discussion is about beryl by default12:20
apokryphosberyl by default would never work12:20
Jucatooh... not interested then :P (at least not yet)12:21
apokryphoseven novell don't have compiz enabled by default, and their checkout for SLED is way more stable; they just have an easy option to enable it12:21
Hobbseeapokryphos: mark wants it.12:21
JucatoO_O12:21
apokryphosHobbsee: where was it mentioned?12:21
Jucatosabdfl has spoken!12:21
Hobbseeapokryphos: the spec12:21
Jucatofor Feisty?12:21
apokryphoshe likes pushing things to the bleeding edge12:22
Hobbseeyes well12:22
apokryphosthat's why there was evil cups in dapper, right? ;-)12:22
Hobbseeapokryphos: even if you cant print, that doesnt mean that your X dies.12:22
Hobbseeapokryphos: if you're dropped to a shell...well, for most people, that's kind of critical12:22
apokryphossure12:23
danimowow, 150GB synced in so far12:23
danimodidn't know that a full ubuntu mirror would take so long to sync12:23
Hobbseeit does... :P12:24
danimoit's been three days now12:24
danimobut I hope it'll be better after the initial sync12:24
apokryphosHobbsee: ohh, and he wants beryl as well, not compiz12:26
Hobbseeapokryphos: exactly12:26
Hobbseeapokryphos: and the number of complaints over beryl taking up all resources, and making things crash.....12:27
apokryphosHobbsee: beryl is nice with its new effects, but it's certainly slower (perhaps because of the cheap patches Reveman talks about), way more unstable, and I'm not convinced that those could really be completely changed12:27
Hobbseeapokryphos: i think they're going to have fun in UDS, dont you think?12:28
Hobbseeapokryphos: that being said, stevenk is going to install some of the packages, and i'll have a look at his12:28
apokryphosHobbsee: also, having the drivers enabled by default.... well, that's going to cause problems, isn't it?12:28
Hobbseeseeing as i'm not convinced that it would take up all my resources, and set my machine on fire12:28
apokryphosthe whole argument with the kernel hackers..12:28
Hobbseeapokryphos: the entire thing would cause problems.  i would expect so12:28
apokryphosproblems as in controversy, yeah12:29
Hobbseeah right12:29
apokryphosHobbsee: maybe if someone got a beryl checkout *now*, and worked on it until feisty release there might be something special ;-)12:34
apokryphoslong process of stabilisation ;-)12:34
Hobbseeapokryphos: hehe, yeah,  maybe12:34
Hobbseeapokryphos: how stable is compiz?12:34
Hobbsee!compiz12:34
ubotuCompiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems12:34
apokryphosit's not as if it requires any more features at the time12:34
apokryphosHobbsee: depends on your checkout. On SLED, for example, it works perfectly. I had it running perfectly (i.e. never crashing) on opensuse for a couple of months, at least.12:35
Hobbseeapokryphos: and the ubuntu repos versoin?12:35
apokryphoswhen I tried I didn't get it working, I had to use compiz-quinnstorm12:35
Hobbseeah12:35
apokryphoswhich, like beryl but to a lesser degree, more features -> more unstable12:36
Hobbseetrue12:36
apokryphosthe slowdown in speed is probably more worrying, though; because it seems to me that it's the way all their code is done that's causing it (which is why Reveman wasn't happy)12:37
apokryphoswhereas stability bugs are fixable, presumable12:37
apokryphos*presumably12:37
apokryphosHobbsee: also unfortunately, with this fork, looks like it's going to be suse+compiz vs. ubuntu+beryl12:38
Hobbseethat worries me - we probably want speed over bling.  i do, anyway12:38
Hobbseeouch12:38
fdovingsredna had a good point, you can't have libqt4-core-kdecopy and python-qt4 installed at the same time. :|12:46

srednaHi01:18
srednaAnyone around who can explain how to install kde4 on kubuntu edgy?01:18
apokryphoshi sredna, did you install the stuff that comes under 'kde4'?01:21
apokryphos!find kde401:22
ubotuFound: kde4base, kde4base-data, kde4base-dev, kde4libs, kde4libs-data01:22
srednaapokryphos: My attempt is to install kde4base-dev, which I reckoned would install everything else, and that is what apt want to do. The problem is that there are some apps in kubuntu-desktop that depends on vanilla qt4 packages, which are replaced with the kdecopy versions when kde4 is installed01:23
apokryphossredna: so kubuntu-desktop is removed? That in itself shouldn't be a problem01:24
srednaapokryphos: It seems that either apt-get isn't so fantastic, or there is some errors in the package definitions01:24
srednaapokryphos: I have no idea what kubuntudesktop contains, apart from sppedcrunch, which is something that I absolutely does not use01:24
srednaThe other conflict is with python-qt401:24
apokryphossredna: kubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage for getting you a stock kubuntu; it doesn't contain data, just depends upon other things to drag them in01:25
srednaapokryphos: And how do I see exactly what it contains?01:25
apokryphossredna: it doesn't contain anything, it just works by depending on other packages, so when you install it, it drags in a stock kubuntu as a consequence01:26
srednaapokryphos: And even if it helps solving the practical problem for me right now, it doesn't really help. What if I really wanted speedcrunch?01:27
apokryphossredna: could you pastebin the output if when you're installing that kdebase4-dev package?01:27
apokryphoss/if when/when/01:27
sredna http://paste.debian.net/15759 01:28
srednaOh, and apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop does nothing :\01:28
apokryphosthe problem isn't kubuntu-desktop, I think it's the python renaming in edgy. Hm, odd01:29
srednaSo this package installs some stuff. I have to read inside the package to see what01:29
apokryphosimbrandon: any ideas?01:29
apokryphosor Hobbsee 8)01:30
srednaHm, removing speedcrunch actually changed the situation01:31
srednaNow it just uninstalls python-qt401:31
apokryphoswhat is it replaced with?01:31
srednaNot really a problem for me, though python is used by some kde packages01:32
srednaBut after uninstalling kubuntu-desktop, it looks like apt want to uninstall eg. Xserver-xorg along with some other kinda nice stuff for a deskttop...01:33
apokryphosare you using aptitude?01:33
srednaYes01:33
srednaEh, no actually, right now I use apt-get01:34
srednaI have a hard time getting the difference, apart from a slightly different syntax ;)01:34
apokryphosso which exact command wants to remove xorg etc?01:34
srednaWell, apt-get just tells me that they are now unneeded01:35
srednaI object to that!01:35
apokryphosthe difference is that since aptitude tries to remove 'unused' dependencies, when k-d is removed it may well want to remove the things that are solely in because of their dependency on k-d01:35
apokryphoscurious01:35
srednaIt seems that I get nothing in return for python-qt401:36
=== sredna is happy that he isn't a linux newbie
sredna.. and I'm no python fanatic :p01:37
srednaI think it would be smart if packages depending on qt4 had a way to feel safe with the kdecopy version01:38
fdovingit would.01:42
fdovingthe kdecopy needs a Provies: libqt4-packages line.01:45
fdovingProvides, that is.01:45
fdovingif they are similar enought to actually do that..01:47
Riddelljings, it's sredna!01:50
Jucatoooh just the man sredna was looking for :)01:51
srednaHi Riddell :)01:51
srednaI have now the kde4 packages installed, so that I can develop something01:52
srednaMy first goal is to get the kate session menu working on kde401:53
Riddellthose packages are several weeks old, but I presume still useful for kde 4 application development01:53
srednaHm, is there something better I can do? Compile?01:54
srednaMaybe I can use the qt packages, and compile kdelibs/kdebase01:54
Riddellyeah, install the final qt 4.2 and compile kdelibs, kdepimlibs and kdebase yourself01:54
srednaOk, sometime soon01:54
srednaIs there a problem with the kdecopy version?01:55
Riddellonly that it's some weeks old01:55
Riddellit'll probably be fine, but in some places things may have changed in trunk01:55
srednaThat doesn't worry me a lot01:56
Riddellso I'd say go with kdecopy and work with that unless you find something doesn't work with it01:56
srednaAs long as it will work with trunk kdelibs, when I find time to compile01:56
srednaYea, will do. Thank you :)01:56
Riddellsredna: what are you thinking of working on?01:57
srednaRiddell: Well, I should get started working a bit on kate. For now, I will port my katesessionmenu, which can then go into 3.5.6 as well01:58
srednaI also need to learn the basics of using the new build system01:59
RiddellI get more into kate all the time02:05
sredna:-)02:11

Jucatosaves me time from clicking :)04:50
Viper550But still, I'm still a bit concerned about the lack of GTK theme on Kubuntu, it's been driving people away from Kubuntu when they go to use Firefox04:51
JucatoViper550: gtk2-engines-gtk-qt is supposed to take care of that right?04:52
nixternalViper550:  that was under control with 1.5, 2.0 changed everything..and why that would drive people away from Kubuntu would be beyond me04:52
Viper550not exactly...I find it to be a bit unreliable04:52
Viper550QtCurve is nice because all it's elements are not directly taken from the KDE theme, it just reads the settings from the KDE theme and applies it to itself04:53
Viper550One more thing: QtCurve can read the colors even when QtCurve is not selected as the KDE theme!04:53
kwwiiViper550: we use the QtGtk stuff in kde which does a pretty good job of using Qt widgets in gtk apps04:54

kwwiiyeahh04:55
Jucatoah ok. thought you were referring to something new :)04:55
Viper550some people have problems with it04:56
kwwiiin the long run we should look into using a different theme, perhaps it would work better04:56
nixternali just realised the trolls live under bridges04:57
Viper550But still, I think a glossy style would look good alongside all the other glossy stuff you've got for Edgy04:57
Jucatonothing beats QtCurve's shiny glass in glossiness :p04:57
kwwiiit very well might04:57
Viper550yeah, looks excellent! In fact, it's theming X-Chat with the exact same style as my KDE apps right now!04:58
Jucatokwwii: that QtCurve scheme works perfectly with your windecos :)04:58
Jucatoand your kicker side image :)04:58
Viper550But still, I think Polyester looks better as the KDE style, but we could have QtCurve with gloss alongside it to complete it04:58
kwwiiJucato: yeah, we talked about using it for edgy but it was too late to change04:58
Jucatoaw... I totally forgot about polyster! :)04:59

Tm_TI see, dist-upgrade?05:04
Jucatonixternal: dist-upgrading to edgy?05:05
nixternali have no clue what this guy is doing...as at time I wish the CoC could be violated just for people like him ;)05:05
nixternaland he is a neighbor05:05
nixternalhehe05:05
Tm_T?05:06
nixternalall he said is that -> mplayer, python libs(lots), gkrellm, libgi2, hipjs <- are being held back05:06
nixternalwait..i bet it is a dist-upgrade to edgy, and he used autocrapix or notsoeasyubuntu05:07
Tm_T=)05:07
Tm_TSurprise! ;)05:07
Jucatolol05:08
nixternalyesterday, i was surprised, as we had our LoCo meeting05:08
Tm_TI believe good guides are far better than any of those "easy to use scripts".05:08
nixternaland 90% of the people there were automatix and/or easyubuntu fans05:08
nixternali was like well, when your computers break, don't use ubuntu support for help05:08
Jucatoexcept that some people prefer to do it the automatic/easy way... and end up fscking themselves...05:08
Tm_Tnixternal: Wow, have a pic? I don't believe without some proof.05:09
nixternalhave a pic of what?05:09
Tm_TJucato: That's exactly what I mean, as far as people don't know good guides, they "rely" on some "easy solution".05:09
Tm_Tnixternal: Of those fanboys.05:09
JucatoTm_T: I was just confirming what you said. :)05:10
Tm_TYup.05:10
nixternalthey will be uploaded soon..hahahahah..you gave me a flickr idea....with the boxes and naming stuff..i will put "Automatix Fanboy" for a title05:10
Tm_T=)05:10
Tm_Tnixternal: "don't be like this guy, learn to use apt"05:10
nixternalwow...he did a dist-upgrade from dapper to edgy, and never used automatix or easyubuntu05:10
Tm_THmm, there's prolly some metapackages that are only in dapper.05:11
nixternali told them....you spend $50,000 on a new car, and you goto Walmart and buy plastic hubcaps for it..that is just like Installing Ubuntu and then using Automatix05:11
Jucatobut anyway, even a totally fresh install of Dapper still caused some packages to be held back when dist-upgrading to Edgy05:11
Tm_TThose are helding things back05:11

fdovingemacs is recommended.07:01
srednaAh, only with aptitude. I must get out of that habit!07:01

=== sredna fires aptitude
fdovingdoes it install recommends by default? 07:02
srednaHow would I know, it appears so07:02
srednaAt least it wanted to install emacs07:02
srednaReminds me that I need to get rid ov vim07:02
fdovingthis new autoremove feature in apt-get is nice, but i think i'll have to make a patch that disables the constant whining about unneeded packages.07:04
srednafdoving: Or an option to disable it?07:05
fdovingthat's what i was thinking about.07:05
srednaSometimes it is nice to be able to view that list07:05
fdovingsure is.07:05
sredna...  which now became longer in my case, since removing vim-tiny also removed ubuntu-minimal07:06
fdovingyou can remove packages from that list, with 'apt-mark unmarkauto <packages>'07:06
srednaAh, that is a good idea.07:07
srednaIt is possible that it would be smart to change how meta-packages works07:07
srednaIt is also not possible to remove the packages installed by them in any easy way as it is07:08
fdovingthat's what 'apt-get --autoremove metapackage' is trying to do.07:08
srednaRight07:09
srednaI have still some learning with apt-get07:09
fdovingwhat i want to disable, is apt-get telling me i have packages that were automatically installed,and can be removed, when i do other things. It should not tell me that, when i run 'apt-get install somepackage' - I want it to tell me this when i run 'apt-get autoremove' it's not like 'apt-get remove somepackage' tells me I have 23452345 packages that can be upgraded, and I should run 'apt-get upgrade' to install them.07:12
srednaThat is absolutely right, that is just confusing07:13
fdoving.. i actually think telling you to update is a better feature, than telling you to remove.07:14
fdovingespecially when this feature is new and can tell you to remove usefull packages.07:15

Viper550I think that maybe we should try community themes on Kubuntu Feisty as well this time08:44
fdovingI think keeping old looks and add new ones would be cool.08:44
=== DaSkreech hasn't pulled the Edgy community package in a while
DaSkreech It only had Dawn Of Ubuntu when I checked it out08:44
fdovingLike Feisty should have the Edgy themes. Feisty+1 should have Edgy, Feisty, and Feisty+1 themes.. etc.08:45
Viper550No, I mean have people in the community make a bunch of themes that are included in the distribution, like on Ubuntu08:45
fdovingthat would be cool.08:45
DaSkreecheven better if we get beryl installed by default :)08:46
Viper550DaSkreech: Fedora Core 6 is close...they have AIGLX and Compiz out of the box08:46
DaSkreechYeah I know but they have a 6 month cycle as wel08:47
DaSkreechwe have AIGLX but no compiz 08:47
Viper550yeah...but don't forget about disc space!08:47
Viper550But, I kinda like FC6's "3D Desktop" controls...looks simple...like something Ubuntu would use08:48
apokryphosah, must try FC6 -- what are people's thoughts on it?08:54
apokryphosmy last thoughts on Fedora were the very bad package support, not great kde support, and slightly muddled system settings, though some nice polish around the edges08:55
apokryphosI think that was fc308:55
DaSkreechno yes yes08:55
Viper550FC5 is a bit better, they got Yum in FC4, slow APT ripoff...08:56
apokryphosDaSkreech: unless beryl is stabilised every day from now till release ;-), having it enabled by default is a very bad idea IMO08:56
Viper550apokryphos: It's not on by default, it's user configurable08:56
apokryphosViper550: I'm talking about the beryl spec for feisty08:56
DaSkreechapokryphos: how about a one button install?08:56
apokryphoshaving it installed by default's not a bad thing, just having it enabled is, I think08:57
Viper550hmm...for the whole OS or just Beryl?08:57
DaSkreechViper550: Not as bad as Yast08:57
apokryphosViper550: sorry?08:57
DaSkreechapokryphos: judging by the sucktitude that ubuntu may become if it's not enabled I don't think it should be installed08:57
Viper550???08:57
apokryphosDaSkreech: what? I always find yast comments confusing. In my mind it's, shall I say infinitely ;-), best system settings configurator in the Linux world08:57
apokryphosno other system has the length of easy and usable configurability like it08:58
DaSkreechViper550: My lord Yast is slow. I opened it yesterday and it took nearly 20 minutes to accomplish adding two sources08:58
apokryphosViper550: as in, what do you mean?08:58
apokryphosYast really isn't slow at all08:58
DaSkreechapokryphos: It's slooooowwwwwww08:58
apokryphosDaSkreech: was that on 10.1?08:58
DaSkreechYes08:58
apokryphosthat's why then08:58
apokryphoshuge bug, hardly how yast behaves normally08:58
DaSkreechSllllooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww08:58
apokryphosit was a mistake to release, but they did release08:58
apokryphosmuch like ubuntu with edgy08:58
DaSkreechThen I should get my girl to jump to 10.208:59
DaSkreechapokryphos: Ubuntu edgy isn't ready?08:59
apokryphosDaSkreech: s/slow/huge bug/. And it wasn't *yast*, it was libzypp08:59
DaSkreech I know I keep hearing it but is it really that badly off?08:59
apokryphosDaSkreech: indeed, but that's the price of strict time-based schedules08:59
DaSkreechapokryphos: You'd think they would have a fix for it by now if htey know the package08:59
apokryphosDaSkreech: it's not a package, it's libzypp -- the new package management framework from SLED adopted into suse linux for 10.109:00
DaSkreechah libzypp just dounds like another cheesy Open source name :)09:00
DaSkreechapokryphos: so 10.2 is much better off?09:00
apokryphosoh, indeed09:00
apokryphosand 10.0 was really great too09:00
apokryphoshttp://en.opensuse.org/Zmd for info on libzypp09:01
DaSkreechI wonder if Mandriva is willing to step up to be Number 409:01
apokryphosalso, just as a note, yast is the whole system settings configuration tool, it's not just the GUI package management handler09:01
apokryphoskind of like saying, in a few words, Ubuntu is sloooow because there's one app on it that doesn't behave09:02
DaSkreechI know but I was redoing Samba with it as well and that was oretty slow as weell09:03
apokryphosone of the things I haven't tested; no Win users on our network :P09:03
DaSkreech:-)09:05
apokryphosDaSkreech: but yeah, 10.2 final should be out in a couple of weeks or so, I recommend trying that09:05
DaSkreechReally?09:06
apokryphosdefinitely09:06
=== apokryphos downloads fc6
