[05:25] Linux_Galore: fixed it [05:25] you can partition a floppy but by default they have no partition. [05:25] Thanks for the help though :) [05:25] Xal2: aah [05:25] I thought you needed to format it (usually in windows it puts a signle fat12?? or something filesystem on it) [05:25] I used the grub program, set (hd0,1) as root and setup on hd0 === yuriy_ is now known as yuriy === kss_ [i=kss@azq78.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu [05:26] Xal2: aah you had hd0,2 or something ? [05:26] Yes === computer [n=computer@c-67-188-119-66.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu [05:26] well with linux the hdd or any other device is only a block specific device node to the system. you can put partitions there or just format "make a file system" or even write raw data to it. with no fs or partitions [05:26] I was scared of putting hd0 for setup though, because I've had grub wipe my drive before. [05:26] Xal2: yeah common mistake, grub counts from 0 === computer is now known as balsamic_chichen [05:27] That wasn't it though. [05:27] I had that right. [05:27] Xal2: what was it ? [05:27] before i used: root (hd0,1) setup(hd0,1) [05:27] intelikey so you kinda manually put one single disk with an entire ext2 filesystem without writing to a parittion table...

[05:28] Xal2: aah you put grub in the wrong place were the bios cant find it [05:28] apparently not [05:28] actually there isn't even a partition table only the file system. [05:28] inteli, do you multiboot? or just one single os? [05:28] Well, like I said, I'm scared of GRUB. [05:29] Xal don't be scared [05:29] learn! [05:29] Xal2: the mbr is easily fixed [05:29] It's not the MBR that I screw up [05:29] multi-boot. but like i said there are eight drives in this box. [05:29] It actually has cleared my hard drive of all its partitions before. [05:29] if you are THAT scared easy way to do it is try virtualization first! [05:29] (ie vmware or Xen or something) [05:29] MrMeh: no fun in that [05:29] mock up a version and try it there [05:29] Xal2: grub doesnt actually delete partitions [05:30] Xal2: fdisk can though [05:30] no fun in what? [05:30] I used grub on my windows partition once [05:30] All the files went away === BrianSteffens is now known as Miramax [05:30] Xal, perhaps because you wrote to the MBR... and it couldn't find your windows anymore [05:30] they didn't exactly go away [05:31] Nope [05:31] they just weren't being pointed to [05:31] ForgeAus and one drive in this box, actually has a partition table and partitions and M$ file system on one of the partitions. but i seldom use that drive at all. [05:31] Xal2: no, every partition has its own mbr, what grub did is muck up the windows stuff on the first cylinder of the partition [05:31] Maybe [05:31] Oh [05:31] Can that be fixed? [05:31] intelikey I can understand that === Miramax is now known as BrianSteffens [05:31] but then I'm no purist... lol :) [05:31] Xal2: yeah XP has a recovery thing on its CD [05:32] I suggest if you come to a point like that you read up first about how to boot an XP partition using Grub before you mess up your MBR [05:32] the partition mbr has a funny name [05:32] lol [05:32] It was on an NTFS partitoin though [05:32] its not called an mbr but does a similar job [05:32] so [05:32] not the one windows was on [05:32] doesn't matter the filesystem type [05:32] it matters that the MBR knows where to look [05:32] for what [05:32] Xal2, no fun in what? [05:32] Hmm, the only options I found in the recovery CD were fixboot and fixmbr [05:32] Oh, in not screwing up [05:33] yup them are the two [05:33] the mbr is just a pointer [05:33] for the bios [05:33] ForgeAus that drive is not the boot drive, but even if it were. grub still couldn't boot my linux system because of the lack of partitions === killermach_ [n=killer@69.92.21.154] has joined #kubuntu [05:33] speaking of the one with partitions. [05:33] intelikey I have a question for you would it hurt to insert some partition information on your drive? [05:34] then grub could work with it === freeride [n=freeride@ip68-103-218-241.ks.ok.cox.net] has joined #kubuntu [05:34] partitions afaik seem to have some advantages... in that A) you can organize your drives and filesystems in separate ones... [05:35] ForgeAus at this point it would. it would be writen on the same sector as the first copy of the superblock [05:35] the mbr is too small to actually run a boot loader so most boot loader are multi part, the bios when it does all its rubbish looks at the mbr and says, yep that will run and does so, the mbr contains a very small program that basically says goto this partition and run this app, the app being GRUB [05:35] ah [05:35] ForgeAus which would spell desaster if i didn't know where to find the second copy. [05:35] So what in the windows recovery cd would rewrite the mbr for a drive that doesn't have windows on it? [05:36] intelikey sounds like it but also sounds very manual ... [05:36] Xal2: yeah it will rewrite the mbr and try and recover the working partitions for you [05:36] I prefer the easier roads lol [05:36] mb4 is 512 bites === __Chris [n=chris@209-180-97-231.omah.qwest.net] has joined #kubuntu [05:36] eek mbr is 512 bites [05:36] Now that makes me hungry [05:36] Xal2: then you get the Linux cd and recover grub and bingo your working [05:36] bytes [05:36] you could always use a temporary storage device to copy files to before you do anything to the drive? [05:37] That would take too long [05:37] not worth it [05:37] Not on this computer anyway [05:37] I always have the important stuff backed up before an event such as this occurs [05:37] Xal2: or do what I did 6 years ago and just said bugger it and deleted windows lol [05:37] ForgeAus yes. but if i added a partition table i'd still have to mke2fs the thing again because of the location of the superblock [05:38] ok so I'll bite (byte? ) whats a superblock? [05:38] Linux_Galore: I'm a gamer. [05:38] (btw this isn't the first time I've heard of one... I just hadn't really needed to know what it meant before and probably won't remember anyhow...)

[05:39] neither is windows? [05:39] Nope [05:39] ah [05:39] they're better in Windows though [05:39] besides Linux will never be "perfect"... nor will any other OS [05:39] Well, you know what I mean. [05:39] actually, i've been really digging ut2k4 in linux [05:39] if i have access to drivers and a windows pc, how much can i find out about a webcam i have? [05:39] what is better in windows? [05:39] Games simply run better in Windows. [05:39] They are, afterall, written for Windows. [05:39] games designed for windows run better in windows, yes [05:40] you mean its where the inode references are stored?

[05:41] You have a bias >_< [05:41] I don't play doom3 [05:41] erm all games are designed for windows [05:41] I play UT2K4, and Linux performance is pretty good. [05:42] when was I talking about OSX and linux? [05:42] Oh? [05:42] You weren't. [05:42] Xal2: OSX is barely unix anymore [05:42] ok [05:42] How about the KDE set of games. [05:42] They're not for Windows [05:42] intelikey, you mean superblock is where inodes get referenced from? [05:42] I bet they run better on Linux. [05:42] ForgeAus yeah [05:42] WoW plays alright in WINE except for the crackling sound. [05:42] it's where the information about the fs is stored [05:42] kde games probably run fine in Windows [05:42] well all major games UT doom etc, designed for windows === gebruiker [n=gebruike@d51A5518B.access.telenet.be] has joined #kubuntu [05:43] Xal2: you can tweak windows heavily so that those games run as well on windows as they do on linux, but linux tends to be slimmer and more efficient, so games run better in my experience [05:43] UT has a LInux version. [05:43] there isn't much they do thats superspecial like 3d gfx etc... so if you have cygwin you probably wouldn't see much difference in kde games [05:43] UT, Doom 3, Quake 3, Enemy Territory, etc, are cross-platform and run great in linux [05:43] unless you get a special specific kde game with some stuff that cygwin doesnt do (which is probably alot at this stage) [05:43] yep [05:43] But C&C Generals sucks in Linux [05:44] yes but it is coded for windows, the linux port is a port ots just they are very good quility programs and as a result its easy to port [05:44] saying they are designed for windows is wrong [05:44] but I was assuming you meant the average mahjongg, shisenshou, tetris etc pack... [05:44] they are tho [05:44] nope [05:44] they are written to be cross-platform [05:44] basically a superblock contains metadata [05:44] games written for directx are designed for windows [05:44] Yeah [05:44] games written for opengl are designed to be cross-platform [05:45] I wish more companies would use opengl [05:45] also cygwin is very rpm-based rather than deb... so its a bit of a mismatch with debian-based linux like kubuntu is [05:45] me too [05:45] But no one cares about Linux. [05:45] grrr ogl directx! grrrrr :( [05:45] mmm, sorta [05:45] They could write them for both though. === ForgeAus misses glide [05:45] Aren't some games compatible with both? [05:46] Xal some probably are === fowlduck thinks that opengl needs to be pushed a little more [05:46] really Linux needs its own version of DirectX [05:46] and some dev tools [05:46] no, no it doesn't [05:46] ForgeAus: yeah those were some kick-ass cards. [05:46] linDX? [05:46] Lol [05:46] 3DFX rocked [05:46] Game designers need to stop kissing M$'s ass.

[05:48] im just looking for an interview that i read, im fairly sure UT is coded primarily for windows then its done verywell and so windows dependancies can be removed or something like that, im not 100% tho [05:48] and also the dev tools for Windows shit on anything available in Linux [05:48] what's the key combinations that takes screen shots when i'm moving the cube with mouse [05:48] Rug: more developed does not mean capable of more, it means more mature and easier to harness for development [05:48] i know there's the xgl channel, but i'm asking here cuz i think i see alot of pros here =) [05:49] Microsoft has got this one thing right, if you make the tools the developers will follow [05:49] bals.. in beryl? nice :) [05:49] no pros, a lot of prose though [05:49] touche [05:49] LG I agree [05:49] unfortunately [05:49] ya in beryl, i wanna take a screen shot of my beryl cube and make it my aim avatar lol [05:49] so that's what i was asking what's the key combinations that takes screen shots when i'm moving the cube with mouse [05:49] bals, awesome, I dunno enough about beryl to help you [05:49] i can't wait until Iron Python is included in Visual Studio, or is at least easy to install [05:50] I dobut I can do it with my machine anyway [05:50] (I'm running kubuntu under vmware) [05:50] Linux is nice in concept but without the dev tools and the libs were a sitting duck [05:50] thx tho =) i just wanted to try ask first =) [05:50] fowl, yeah that and Haskell! [05:50] I have one Linux and one Windows computer, both dual boot [05:50] VS is definitely going IronPython, theres already builds withi t built in.. but it will probably go Haskell next [05:50] i don't know much about haskell, just that it's some sort of procedural language [05:50] I have a KVM, so I can use both :) [05:50] no === freeride [n=freeride@ip68-103-218-241.ks.ok.cox.net] has joined #kubuntu [05:50] Haskell is functional programming language [05:50] Linux is really easy to setup as a server.

[05:51] I know. [05:51] I don't actually understand functional programming myself yet to be honest [05:51] http://www.linux-gamers.net/smartsection.item.16/inteview-with-croteam-039-s-vedran-skrnjug.html < from that its quite clear that programs are made for windows and ported to linux [05:51] I really don't know enough to do much with Linux.

[05:52] Xbehave: as long as they use opengl or use an in house widget kit, if they use a purely DX9 setup it doesnt port [05:52] fowl, yes there is, but I wouldn't know where/how to find it [05:52] yeah but its the same for most games, the port is just done because its easy [05:52] right [05:53] its definitely not in the official current VS whats it up to 8? build... but there are custom ones that have IP built in... [05:53] Xbehave: heh [05:53] Xbehave: or if they do try and port the game its a first class pain in the ass [05:53] Xbehave: thats dor serious sam [05:53] you'd have to go searching for them tho... becuas like I said I have no idea where/how to find them [05:53] maybe P2P? === intelikey still wishes he would have learned C when C was young and so was he.

[05:54] I still think it makes the code look messy [05:54] I prefer python or pascal [05:55] (chrome isn't too bad for a pascal for Visual Studio) === crimsun [i=crimsun@pdpc/supporter/silver/crimsun] has joined #kubuntu [05:55] Xbehave: that's a design decision, when UT was released it was linux-ready.

[05:57] yep [05:57] its just an addon to ruby for what apache? === ForgeAus tastes some sweet CherryPy [05:57] I've done application programming in ruby and honest greatly prefer python....and ruby is really slow too === narasubuntu [n=narasubu@59.92.79.102] has joined #kubuntu [05:57] euch! I don't like Cherry! [05:57] no, rails is a full web development framework [05:57] I'm a python fan too [05:58] a la turbogears and django [05:58] I wish I knew python [05:58] I hear its easy as pie [05:58] never took the time to read the books though [05:58] I mostly spend my time in PHP [05:58] Pascal, Haskell, Python.... [05:58] <333 php [05:58] pwn4tt4ck: it's really easy to learn, i can point you to some nice resources if you want [05:58] plz do [05:58] although I know very little about haskell sofar [05:58] pwn4tt4ck: if you love php, learn python and you'll hate php after a little while [05:58] but theres always #haskell around to ask :) [05:58] hahha, I doubt it [05:58] php is my heart [05:58] fowlduck: that's true. [05:58] I think they purposely make it seem more complicated than it is [05:58] I couldn't imagine my website without it === intelikey only knows bash. [05:59] you can get VHS for Visual Studio [05:59] pwn4tt4ck: http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/Programmers [05:59] [05:59] inteli you know more than I do [05:59] lol [05:59] I'm not such a basher [05:59] nor even a batchscripter! [05:59] which is SAD to the nth degree! [05:59] there is a thing I have here some were by a very good writer who has worked with every computer language inder the sun and he talks about each and how it falls short of the mark at the end of the day (even shows how python has some serious failings) then he ends on ruby and how it doesnt have the same failing as python and perl and java === Hobbsee_ [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #kubuntu [05:59] not missing much with batch scripting [05:59] SAD^# [05:59] python is more of a multitool than PHP as well. PHP has become one, but it wasn't meant to be one. [05:59] my jump drive doent seem to work with dapper, how come? [06:00] fowlduck: thank you [06:00] Python seems more small scripty than appsy... but its getting there... slowly [06:00] Linux_Galore: well, I'm glad there are some people with opinions out there, unfortunately ruby is slow, immature, and relies on "magic" [06:01] "magic"? [06:01] whatever, python is extremely extensible, you can make humongous applications with it [06:01] jump drive? [06:01] ForgeAus: I dunno, a lot of the KDE stuff is python [06:01] fowl check out boo :) [06:01] Jump drive is a flash drive [06:01] i have [06:01] good point Lee :) [06:01] magic, as in it prefers implicit over explicit === Hobbsee_ is now known as Hobbsee [06:01] convention over configuration === soulrider [n=mauro@r201-217-130-60.dialup.adsl.anteldata.net.uy] has joined #kubuntu [06:02] you know what rocks at the end of the day, though? XML [06:02] which sounds good, but in the end isn't that great [06:02] lol, yeah [06:02] again, I couldn't imagine my pages without xml [06:02] xml makes the web go around [06:02] implicitness is kewl... I don't want to have to keep saying exactly what I need all the time... it helps me make less mistakes [06:02] ForgeAus: implicitness does not mean you can't make things easier [06:02] So python is for more than just the great WWW? [06:02] guys archangel_ had a support Q. [06:02] XML is just do-it-yourself SGML [06:03] pwn4tt4ck: bery much so [06:03] you can make real apps like you would with c++ or what not? [06:03] remember this is still a support channel [06:03] its nothing without a schema.. plus its wordy [06:03] yep [06:03] xml is the best way I've found of passing static info through the net [06:03] k, sorry [06:03] the web is xml. it's how your webpages are stored on the client side [06:03] DOM ftw [06:03] we need a channel just for this discussion [06:03] does anyone know if its possible at boot time, to see what thr system is doing? the way it was in dapper, now all i see is the logo but i dont know what my computer is doing [06:03] ubuntu-offtopic [06:03] I never took the time to understand document object models [06:04] that's why you hate it [06:04] my jump drive doent seem to work with dapper, how come? [06:04] learn it and it demystifies javascript and the web [06:04] actually fowl, your kinda right kinda wrong [06:04] archangel_: ummm, what do you mean by doesn't work? [06:04] HTML isn't exactly XML, it uses XML-like tags... but its all under SGML [06:04] toda roba intelikey [06:04] soulrider the linux kernel hasn't changed that much. boot with verbose and vga=normal [06:04] ForgeAus: you should explain further :) [06:05] ForgeAus: on the client side it becomes XML [06:05] so the web isn't XML its HTML + some other formats... [06:05] soulrider or vga=0x0f05 [06:05] ForgeAus: read what I said closer [06:05] wont recognize it. like it doesnt work, but it does. [06:05] archangel_: plug it in then check the tail end of the output of dmesg [06:05] fowlduck: I dont use Javascript that much. When I do it's in small quantities. Anything I'd need JS for (save drop downs and other DHTML) I use PHP to do [06:06] pwn4tt4ck: ajax owns [06:06] intelikey: do i remove quiet ? [06:06] is PHP perl-like? [06:06] ForgeAus: PHP is perl castrated [06:06] AJAX is the big buzzword... [06:06] at the moment anyway [06:06] soulrider yep that's what is squelching part of it. and silent also [06:06] ppl love AJAX and I don't even know what it means exactly.. yet [06:07] i dont see silent [06:07] same with WEB2.0 of course [06:07] how? [06:07] ForgeAus: if you have less than $20, check out the pragmatic programmers book on ajax, it will help you understand ajax and the web [06:07] php is perl castrated hahahaha [06:07] im gonna reboot :) [06:08] archangel_: plug it in then type this is on the command line. Paste the output into pastebin.ca: dmesg | tail [06:08] soulrider probably not there then. but quiet and the framebuffering togather keep the messages away so vga= and verbos togather bring them in. [06:08] fowl I odn't really need to understand them... if I'm using a good enough IDE... it'll do all the understanding of them for me :) [06:08] I dont like AJAX. Then again I've only dabbled into the research, never tried it [06:08] I just need to drag and drop the right tools int he right place and set their properties so that voila... my app works as I meant it too [06:08] ForgeAus: when you realize that isn't enough, come back and see me === Hobbsee_ [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #kubuntu [06:08] lol fowlduck... I know in essence its not enough [06:09] but its a start [06:09] pwn4tt4ck: yes, it seems as though you need to be a rocket scientist to do it, but you really don't, in fact it's easy. It just changes pages [06:09] Aspect Oriented programming is interesting... [06:09] I have yet to see AspectPython tho :( [06:09] even Hobbsee_ [06:09] I quit learning after I learned php5 [06:09] ForgeAus: you would make a great CS major, you don't want to understand anything in depth, just from 30,000 feet [06:09] its mostly Java (and of course some C) that its being toyed with) [06:10] pwn4tt4ck: I'm sorry to hear that :( [06:10] I started with html, moved to xml, then sgml, the c++, then perl, then php 4 and 5 and then just stopped [06:10] fowl... too much of it to understand in depth [06:10] its like wading in the ocean and picking a rock instead of the coral reef to explore [06:10] fowlduck, what is that supposed to imply about cs majors? [06:10] lol === soulrider [n=mauro@r190-0-131-187.dialup.adsl.anteldata.net.uy] has joined #kubuntu [06:10] I'll start again with python though, but now I think I need to leave. my girlfriend doesnt look that excited by the conversation [06:10] i hate cs [06:10] intelikey: works great! thanks! [06:10] supposed to imply.... he said it out rightly [06:10] crimsun: that there are many who only have 30,000 foot views of the technology in use in the industry [06:11] soulrider np [06:11] fowlduck, I'm pretty sure that's not limited to cs majors. [06:11] fowls right [06:11] anyhow, it's pretty off-topic, so I'll stop. [06:11] crimsun: yes, but they make it their business to be like that :) [06:11] these days they can't seemt o zoom into one specific tool and teach it [06:11] they have to do general overviews [06:11] because theres just SOOO much stuff out there [06:11] nobody could learn them all anyway... [06:11] my cs class: the book has nothing to do with the lecture, the lecture has nothing to do with the hw, the hw has nothing to do with the book, non of what i mentioned has to do with the midterms, the midterms has nothing to do with the finals, and the grading is arbitary, the grading curve, well it's a flat line. that's is life at berkeley cs lol. [06:12] ForgeAus: learn a few types of languages in depth and it makes the rest much easier to understand [06:12] the croteam mention reminded me that i have a copy of serious sam sitting here... haven't tried it in linux yet though [06:12] sorry that really should have gone in the offtopic section [06:12] bbl [06:12] fowl I agree [06:12] can I idle in here? [06:12] pwn4tt4ck: yes === _czessi [n=Czessi@dslb-088-073-058-104.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [06:12] fowl: thanks :D [06:12] np, bro [06:13] problem is the only one I've had the chance to learn indepth (with support that is) is VB :( [06:13] (.net) [06:13] Hawkwind: do you happen to be here ? [06:13] which translates bascially 1-to-1 relationship with C# [06:13] fowlduck: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39416/ [06:13] ForgeAus: yeah, I know VB.NET too, you should check out a "scripting" language in depth [06:13] like PYthon [06:13] pwn4tt4ck idle all you want but turn you away anouncments off. [06:13] I've been getting inroads to python [06:13] I'm not interested in perl tho [06:14] archangel_: wow, that's weird === _czessi is now known as Czessi [06:14] some kinda Lisp/scheme/smalltalk family language might be itneresting... TCL seems kinda left behind ... dunno much about it [06:15] Fortran is very Pascal-like in some ways... [06:15] ForgeAus: learn python in depth (since it can be used for pretty much anything) and learn Lisp [06:15] lisp is very () intensive right? [06:15] recursion [06:15] clisp seems to be the go [06:16] yeah, this seems to happen when I got to have the thing working to get another pc up and running [06:16] whatever, just learn it, and then learn a web framework [06:16] (windows pc) [06:16] that's what I would do if I could [06:16] Visual Studio.NET (dunno bout the current vers but def 2003/2002 vers') had a built in example of a lisp interpretter! lol :) [06:16] linix is here to save the day hehehe [06:16] archangel_: hmm, I'm looking at how to clear dmesg [06:17] ForgeAus: VS makes you dumb, I really wouldn't recommend it to someone starting as a programmer [06:17] ForgeAus: (aka, what you said earlier about dropping stuff in and it works) === ethos_ [n=ethos@67.170.99.119] has joined #kubuntu [06:17] argh, i'm in os x, i need to install ubuntu in a vm [06:17] fowlduck -c [06:17] hehe [06:18] try kubuntu :) I like it better [06:18] let's cut the FUD, ok? VS has nothing to do with dumbing down learning any language or any process. === Hobbsee_ is now known as Hobbsee === ForgeAus ubuntuized and xubuntuized his kubuntu anyhow [06:18] crimsun: it discourages many good things. This isn't FUD. [06:18] FUD? [06:18] Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt [06:19] fowlduck, that's your opinion, and it has things which many IDEs can do. Please, cut the FUD. [06:19] I love Visual Studio, don't get me wrong, just I'm a lab assistant and I see lots of students affected by VS hiding the goings on under the hood [06:20] fowl, I agree that VS is about all that... but its objective is mostly to simplify rather than cover or anything sinister... === dettoaltrimenti_ [n=dettoalt@cpe-66-61-61-45.midsouth.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu [06:20] fowlduck then you too think the gui is a secondary tool and the command line is the system ? [06:20] crimsun: FUD reflects an intentional skewing of facts to produce the feelings FUD is an acronym for, which I am not doing [06:20] ie, reigons do tend to be compacted in outline views etc, but they are there to explore if you have the guts to try it :)... [06:20] intelikey: GUI is there to make things easier, and it is a good thing. I believe that you should know what's going on before you make it easier though [06:21] fowlduck, I'd say that lambasting VS as a tool not suitable for novice programmers simply because it does things differently from how -you- would like is FUD. [06:21] can I do a search for anything connected by usb? [06:21] intelikey often there is a commandline drive with a gui slapped on it model but that odesn't HAVE to be the case... depends on the tool and what makes sense for it... [06:21] archangel_ lsusb [06:21] just compiled the latest version of K3B, wow he has added allot of ripping options [06:22] archangel_ also dmesg | grep usb [06:22] nothing happens when I do that [06:22] ver 1.0rc3 [06:22] lsusb returns nothing.... odd. [06:22] crimsun: I'd say that recommending that new programmers not use a tool that keeps you from learning to read documentation, compile code, etc, is not FUD [06:23] fowlduck, it doesn't keep you from learning to read documentation. [06:23] it encourages it [06:23] it helps you too much, is what I'm saying, when new programmers need to learn to help themselves [06:23] kinda like the gui encourages to not type [06:23] fowlduck, that's quite a leap. I suppose GNOME encourages one not to read documentation, as does KDE? === venom [n=venom@ACCC0A77.ipt.aol.com] has joined #kubuntu === intelikey and points to !offtopic AGAIN [06:24] crimsun: no, but intelisense encourages one to not read documentation [06:24] Is it complicated to get my windows media center box to access video files on my kubuntu box?

[07:11] so that will make it work for everything? === Bent [n=bent@port46.ds1-esp.adsl.cybercity.dk] has joined #kubuntu === asunto_ [n=asunto@cs181121067.pp.htv.fi] has joined #kubuntu [07:12] I wonder if there's a better fuse implementation of union? [07:12] i can't wait for zfs and time machine in os x [07:12] yeah, the next step is just for nautilus though right? === Linux_Galore isnt impressed with fuse [07:12] LeeJunFan what are you cobbeling togather with unionfs ? [07:13] why is my processor only operating at 800Mhz... this is STUPID! [07:13] lol. [07:13] it cant work with everything it only works with programs that have 5 button mice controls === MDCore_2 [n=gavin@41.207.231.41] has joined #kubuntu [07:13] jontec: depends on the processor [07:13] intelikey: I've got a thick client setup, I want each workstation to mount it's one unioned /etc for mtab and cups configs [07:13] fowlduck: zfs will only be for none OSX disks [07:13] intelikey: rather than using 25 separate /etc dirs like I have now. [07:13] fowlduck: you wont be able to run OSX on zfs [07:13] Linux_Galore: I'm sorry, what? [07:13] aww, for real? [07:13] laaaame [07:14] can you pm me XBehave? [07:14] fowlduck: yeah, the meta search engine depends on the hfs file system [07:14] LeeJunFan and symlinks wouldn't work i guess. [07:14] fowlduck, I am wasting 1.2Ghz (it's an AMD Turion, single core) it's a laptop... the performance monitor is annoying... so I closed it... I could not change the performace profile and it constantly runs at 800Mhz [07:14] lame [07:14] intelikey: nope, tried that - mtab doesn't work if it's a symlink. [07:15] fowlduck: your stuck with hfs, the only advantage would be backups in the case of OSX [07:15] jontec: wow, weirdness. some processors take down their multiplier to save power and whatnot [07:15] freeride: no:( im not registerd otherprograms can use the extra buttons using imwheel, but only those expecting 5 button mice will use it without tham === freet15 [n=freet15@61.49.220.22] has joined #kubuntu [07:15] Linux_Galore: precisely [07:15] intelikey: mtab is really the biggest problem, if I symlink /proc/mounts to mtab it kind or works but since /proc/mounts doesn't have user info once a user mounts something that user can't unmount it. [07:15] fowlduck: you can still create a zfs partition or disk and use that for backups [07:16] how come you dont register? I think I'm going to do it now [07:16] intelikey: and of course if I have 25 systems sharing the same mtab when one mounts /media/cdrom they all think it's already mounted. [07:16] fowlduck: in the long run Apple will have to either dump hfs or update it [07:16] Linux_Galore: yay :) [07:17] freeride: because i came on to set up my webcam and should have gone to bed agers ago, also i avoid pming as im fairly new and my get overridden by a pro [07:17] fowlduck: I think thats why they have added zfs just in case hfs hits a problem [07:17] LeeJunFan yes i see.... thinking. [07:17] will osx fonts work? [07:17] hi intelikey [07:17] oic, ok [07:17] spitwise [07:18] spitwise: you have to convert them or get the source file and run buildset [07:18] freeride: if u follow the instructions for natilus it will work in konq and because u can easily set shortcuts in kde it can be set up for almost any app, you just but alt+left as a shortcut for the left 1 and .... for the right 1 [07:19] i see .. but M$ fonts will, right? [07:19] spitwise: I use buildset and have a nice collection of OSX icons tarballs that I use with kde [07:19] ok [07:19] thanks [07:19] intelikey: mount treats mtab differently if it's a simlink, but I wonder if I made a hardlink. hrm. [07:19] !buildset [07:19] Sorry, I don't know anything about buildset - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi [07:20] hmm funky [07:21] thanks guys [07:21] that wouldn't really work either since the src of the link would have to be on the same FS. [07:22] let me get the link were I get my source icons sets that are from OSX [07:22] LeeJunFan hardlinks can't span fs's. making umount a script that does sudo umount.real $* and setting sudoers to ALL ALL=ALL NOPASSWD :/bin/umount.real /media/* one could then use a symlink to /proc/mounts but you might still have problems with shared info... [07:23] intelikey: that might work. Already all systems mount tmpfs to /media so they don't all have access to the same mounted devs. [07:23] that's a good idea. Thanks intelikey [07:23] and a really sharp hacker would do something like umount /media/../proc so that probably isn't a good idea [07:24] intelikey: true, but they are still only going to umount that one workstation, worst case scenario is a reboot. [07:24] but at least they could only umount things. not really dangerous. [07:24] what i'm needing is fonts to use for in gimp, scribus etc [07:24] not system === yuriy_ is now known as yuriy [07:25] http://graphitekde.sourceforge.net/ [07:25] you can build kde icon sets from those files, the buildset program is also included in the file [07:25] k [07:25] ok i'm went. LeeJunFan drop me a memo on the final solution. [07:26] intelikey: okay, so far the mount/umount wrapper idea is the best. [07:26] defoma and the like are new to me [07:26] good night or gooday which ever side your on. and good luck to your pinguin [07:26] intelikey: gnight. === dope [n=dope@adsl-70-240-215-15.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net] has joined #kubuntu [07:28] spitwise: this is what the icons look like -> http://www.kde-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=13507&file1=13507-1.png&file2=&file3=&name=SNOWE2-Tangerine-RAD.E8&PHPSESSID=a8b565af83aa006c1b331684ce3519c7 [07:28] how do i get the run command window to autocomplete? [07:28] i'm not really asking about iconsets at all [07:28] but thanks [07:29] dope: use katapult way better or learn to use the command line [07:29] i need to install some certain fonts for graphics work [07:29] dope: i dont think it does [07:29] dope: katapult auto completes [07:29] lol ok thanks everyone :) [07:29] command window?

[08:47] :D [08:48] hehe yeah well I do tend to overdo it [08:48] but I don't htink its the overlap thats causing the problem [08:48] lol [08:48] they logged in fine last time and I didn't install any new VWM's or anything since... [08:48] something else broke [08:49] I just have the distinct feeling of resentment between them... so much refuse to work together... but I'm not one to be adventurous like that.. [08:49] what?

[08:50] I'm thinking you don't :D [08:50] lol I'm adventurous and they do seem to work together [08:50] well separately anyhow [08:50] they don't seem to interoperate but I aren't asking them to... that I know of [08:50] then I dunno... I haven't really tried before... but I was able to install gparted because qtparted was horrible on the amd64 dapper cd...

[09:39] I don't use a username to get into kubuntu I only need to type my pass [09:39] the username already there is forge [09:39] ForgeAus: the one you used the very first time you used kubuntu after the install [09:39] ForgeAus: okay, then it's forge (I don't know :D) [09:39] ForgeAus: we have to work with cli... it's all we have :D [09:39] neither did I that that was my username but that doesn't seem to work anyway === killermach_ [n=killer@69.92.21.154] has joined #kubuntu [09:40] actually that worked [09:40] forge worked! [09:40] ForgeAus: GOOD!

[09:40] brb trying it... just for fun [09:41] um do I have to log out? [09:41] ForgeAus: okay that makes a big problem switch... we know that it's a problem with something that gets into the guts of the system.... not the candy coating [09:41] is this login nested? [09:41] the candy coating you use to access it [09:41] nested? === zach [n=zach@12-216-82-148.client.mchsi.com] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [09:41] inside another one [09:41] to get back to where I was do I have to logout? [09:41] ForgeAus: the login you just used is possibly nested within the root... but I'm not totally sure [09:42] I can always type login -p forge again thats easy done [09:42] try logout and see what you get [09:42] yup it was nested [09:42] if you get a login prompt [09:42] okay [09:42] You can log in as root at the recovery console if you change the root's password in the passwd file to something unintelligible, iirc [09:42] so you're back to root, then (wanted to make sure) [09:42] yay, in as root = win [09:43] man, i wish I could remember the trick, someone told me it like 6 months ago [09:43] bah [09:43] grrr wdm doesn't work anymore [09:43] fowlduck: we have instant root :D [09:43] fowlduck: we just need to make sure that his regular login works [09:43] then he can sudo su into root later [09:44] jontec: yessir [09:44] ok back to login [09:44] got a forge prompt now [09:44] what do I need to do to get back into my desktop from here? [09:44] ForgeAus: lol :D we don't need wdm... but I think that we're at the end of my knowledge [09:44] well... [09:44] we probably still have the same problem [09:44] wdm? [09:44] what problem? [09:45] not kdm or gdm? [09:45] kdm is kde gdm is gnome [09:45] xdm is Xwindows [09:45] and you're using? [09:45] it's a problem with X and the kde interface that's preventing you to login (or all of that other..... .... crap you have) [09:45] wdm is? [09:45] hmmm Wdm might have been windowmaker? [09:45] or is Xdm XFCE? [09:45] or both?

[09:46] lol jontec thats not a problem [09:46] its all working [09:47] kdm is the display manager [09:47] just that I can't login from kdm [09:47] or any dm for that matter [09:47] if my X is locked would that be why? [09:47] ForgeAus: wow, try creating a new user in recovery mode and log in under that [09:47] ForgeAus: that's what I was saying before... it's the candy coating.... :D [09:47] jontec what exactly do you mean by that? [09:48] fowl? how do I create a new user? [09:48] not at fowlduck btw [09:48] I have no idea what I'm doing in cli!

[09:50] what? [09:50] grr whats this stuff mean? [09:50] ForgeAus: type ps -A | grep dm [09:50] gives me a list of wdm processes I guess [09:50] ForgeAus: you probably have two display managers running at the same time and one has it locked [09:51] 3x with a wdm login at the end [09:51] ForgeAus: wait, are you logged in as root? [09:51] I was [09:51] but jontec had me login as forge [09:51] go: sudo useradd testuser [09:51] (my username) [09:51] that worked its asking password [09:52] why can't I just have deleted the lock file? wouldnt that have fixed all this? [09:52] ok, so your password file isn't locked [09:52] hey, we had to see if it would work :D [09:52] no, you do not want to delete the passwd file, bad bad bad [09:52] lol [09:52] never do that [09:52] grrr it wont accept the password :( [09:52] why not?

I just saw lock file and delete and yelled no [09:54] when I tried running xwindows in the first place I said it told me it had a lock on some temporary file [09:55] ForgeAus: that makes little sense if we don't know what the file is [09:55] .X0-lock [09:55] okay I found it: [03:27] and theres some lock in temp files that I need to delete /tmp/.X0-lock [09:55] well when I tried to run it it told me it was already running and to delete the .X0-lock in the /tmp/ directory [09:55] if I remove that will that fix my kdm?

[10:02] what do you mean by sessions in this context? [10:02] ForgeAus: I'm not sure if that's the technical term... but yes.... once in KDE you can use them and they attach to a user [10:02] ForgeAus: meaning you can login as a different user on each one [10:02] ForgeAus: well, we're not there to help you get through this and somehow you've managed to get multiple display managers borking, so instead of us spending hours trying to help you get through this, why not just reinstall? === x-demon [n=xdemon@123.nat.tascom.ru] has joined #kubuntu [10:03] wasn't hard to get multiple display managers working [10:03] i seriously don't know how you managed to get all this messed up [10:03] just install them and they go [10:03] i said borking, not working [10:03] lol [10:03] my internet connection ided [10:03] grr died [10:03] which messed up an install that messed up my erm.. session?... in WMaker [10:03] It could be an X configuration issue too [10:03] it was still runing but it was kinda broken [10:04] when I rebooted I couldn't log into KDM from there [10:04] nice [10:04] erm I mean KDE...

[12:53] hi everyone! [12:53] and do i need an upgrade to 6.10? [12:53] BeLinux, if you want the more refined software.. yes. [12:53] i would like to get new kontact and koffice then i will be happy..i could do that within 5.10 or? [12:53] i just bought a new printer, an hewlett-packard business inkjet 1000 and connected it via usb to my router, which i'm printing to using cups from my kubuntu machine [12:53] I don't think you can get the new kontact or koffice from 5.10, unless you compile them from scratch.

[12:55] any idea what could cause/fix this? [12:55] BeLinux, in my opinion, you're better off doing a clean install, that way you don't get anything murky left behind. [12:55] if not i have to download the cd ...ufff.... [12:56] BeLinux: yes u can to m knowledge [12:56] BeLinux, no, that will install xubuntu 6.06 [12:56] Converting then to kubuntu, requires some heavy terminal usage and lots of downloading, you're better off downloading the kubuntu cd === asif [n=asif@62-31-49-54.cable.ubr04.perr.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu [12:57] BeLinux: you could just back up your data and do a clean install of 6.10, if you wanted to. === Ash-Fox agrees with Hobbsee's reccommendation. [12:57] odd, only special characters like big parentheses (or deltas, or greek letters) are cut in half some times [12:57] which is stupid for equations, because i cannot understand it at all if it isn't complete...

[01:06] KDE is very low memory. [01:06] for me as user..i could see that in pclinuxos i could upgrade to the newest KDE etc...
