| TheDebugger | Agent_86: It doesn't use it? | 05:18 |
| Agent_86 | in kinfocenter it will only put it on usb 1 | 05:18 |

| Agent_86 | but it shows a usb 2 controller | 05:18 |

| Jucato | look? as in themes and stuff? | 05:26 |
| jordo23 | Jucato: Not that different, but was it a problem that I technically was running Ubuntu with KDE installed (Not stock Kubuntu)? | 05:26 |
| Jucato | aaaah | 05:26 |
| BluesKaj | dennister, the dlink 624, looks good for ethernet dhcp , wired cat 5 dsl , even :) | 05:26 |

| jordo23 | Jucato: Yeah, and some of the apps are a little different... | 05:26 |
| genii | dennister For a dedicated voip phone which doesn't need the computer on all the time to be connected thru say the USB port, it needs a separate connection as if it is a computer on an internal LAN | 05:26 |

| Jucato | jordo23: right-click panel -> Configure Panel -> Menus options | 05:30 |
| genii | dennister If you have no regular telehpne service on the telephone line to which your DSL is connected, a regular telephone will just have dead air. There are rj-11 to usb adapters where you can plug your old phone into your computer to use over internet but then again, your computer needs to be on all the time for it to work | 05:30 |

| dennister | but I'd have to buy the adapter to attach the old phone to the dsl modem, that rj-11 to usb adapter, right? | 05:31 |
| genii | dennister Some voip providers have an embedded device that is basically a LAN plug on one side and on the other side you plug your old telephone in, but again, this behaves as if it is another computer on an internal network etc | 05:32 |

| Mightily-Oats | ill try that... thanks n8k99 :) | 05:58 |
| n8k99 | welcome | 05:58 |
| tryptamine | it must be at the BIOS/chipset level because it did the same in every OS install | 05:59 |

| Mightily-Oats | ok.. bye.. going to take another bash at edgy | 05:59 |
| tryptamine | so there's a 2800+ scattered round my room | 05:59 |
| genii | tryptamine I'd look at the MTU of your router | 05:59 |
| tryptamine | MTU? | 05:59 |
| tryptamine | no but... i didnt have that problem with any other computer... just this one | 06:00 |
| genii | tryptamine Maximum Transmission Unit | 06:00 |
| tryptamine | hmm whoah that's odd | 06:01 |
| tryptamine | i seem to only be getting 460kbps down | 06:01 |
| genii | tryptamine DSL MTU mismatch for instance for 1497 on router to 1500 on computer can mean horrible un-syncing of connection and lost data on large d/l | 06:01 |
| tryptamine | yeah i understand | 06:02 |
| tryptamine | but i cant find the settings for it | 06:02 |

| tryptamine | however, why my net is running at 460kbps and not 24000kbps is beyond me | 06:04 |
| genii | tryptamine Are internal computers getting some LAN IP or are they all using some PPPOE client software like roaring penguin (rp-pppoe) | 06:04 |

| Jucato | TehKewl1: can you get to the command line? | 08:42 |
| TehKewl1 | it just fucked up my install | 08:42 |
| posthuman | hm | 08:43 |
| genii | Adept will break systems when apt-get or aptitude will not | 08:43 |
| ForgeAus | starts off fast enough | 08:43 |
| TehKewl1 | yeah, but it logs in and goes straight to xterm | 08:43 |
| posthuman | strange | 08:43 |
| Jucato | TehKewl1: if you can, try reinstalling kubuntu-desktop | 08:43 |
| posthuman | ive never had any issues with adept..but that's indeed weird | 08:43 |
| Jucato | genii: nah, apt-get and aptitude can break your system as well... but less | 08:43 |
| TehKewl1 | won't that take a loooooooooooooooong time on a 64k internet connection, or can I use the packages from the CD? | 08:43 |

| lascar | for all of you having adept problems, try using apt-get | 08:43 |
| lascar | or changing the repos to a different country | 08:44 |
| TehKewl1 | Kpackage is ftw | 08:44 |
| lascar | like "eu" instead of "us" | 08:44 |
| ForgeAus | my problem with adept is it shows too many goodies | 08:44 |
| sara | Anyone know of a program I can control my computer fans with? My fan is running at full speed, all the time | 08:44 |
| genii | Jucato OK, should have qualified that. Point taken | 08:44 |
| Jucato | TehKewl1: if you have the Alternate Install CD, yes | 08:44 |
| MrNatas | The fact is I'm looking for a good groupware, but oGo seems not not be available on ubuntu :( | 08:44 |
| lascar | and i have the ntfs driver installed, but i get the same problem | 08:44 |
| Jucato | genii: the problem with Adept is that it doesn't immediately show you what it will remove or install | 08:44 |
| === ForgeAus decides to kill his update/download cache | ||
| posthuman | whats the problem lascar? | 08:44 |
| TehKewl1 | so what commands do I issue, I'll get some paper | 08:44 |
| Jucato | TehKewl1: do you have the Alternate Install CD? you can't use the Desktop/Live CD | 08:45 |
| genii | lascar Why is it that you wish to write to an ntfs partition from linux? There may be some other solution if we know the problem | 08:45 |

| ForgeAus | like ext2ifs | 08:49 |

| ForgeAus | genii sounds like a wise choice | 08:50 |
| ForgeAus | lascar just be careful | 08:50 |
| stdin | there is a driver for windows that will let you read/write to ext2/3 | 08:50 |
| ForgeAus | yes stdin | 08:50 |
| ForgeAus | I don't know exactily if its a driver tho | 08:50 |
| ForgeAus | ext2ifs | 08:50 |
| lascar | forgeaus: i'll try. Thanks for the concern. | 08:50 |
| posthuman | when i formatted my pc..my net wasnt working in windows (go figure)..so i booted from the kubuntu live cd and did that above how to. I download sp2 straight onto the ntfs partition | 08:51 |
| posthuman | so it should work | 08:51 |
| ForgeAus | you can mount linux drives as if they were native with it | 08:51 |

| genii | It was inittab .. then the next question becomes... if more consoles than function keys which ALT-<key?> for console 13+ ? | 09:57 |
| Ace_NoOne | which filesystem should I (as a beginner) use? EXT3? | 09:58 |
| genii | stdin This box is a 6.06 | 09:58 |
| lascar | ace: yes | 09:58 |
| ForgeAus | ext3, or xfs | 09:58 |

| === racarr is now known as racarr-sleep | ||
| stdin | inittab is in 6.10, but not 7.04, don't know why tho | 09:59 |
| Ace_NoOne | why does the wizard tell me to "create a swap partition of at least 256 MB"? Is that really necessary or just for sharing files with another OS? | 09:59 |
| Jucato | maybe it's part of the transition to upstart? | 09:59 |
| Linux_Galore | maybe because ubntu doesnt use init anymore | 09:59 |
| genii | maybe they are moving to sysvinit system | 09:59 |
| Linux_Galore | ubuntu* | 09:59 |
| stdin | Ace_NoOne: swap isn't for sharing files with another OS | 10:00 |
| Jucato | genii: moving *from* sys v init | 10:00 |
| Jucato | Ace_NoOne: swap is a space on your hard drive that will be used in case you run out of available RAM | 10:00 |

| Ace_NoOne | ah I see - but it's a separate partition here | 10:01 |
| stdin | it's more efficient that way | 10:01 |
| Jucato | Ace_NoOne: yes. for performance reasons, it's usually best to put swap on a separate partition | 10:01 |
| genii | stdin You have something like rc.conf dir in /etc? | 10:01 |
| Ace_NoOne | yeah, makes sense | 10:01 |
| stdin | you can have a swap file too | 10:01 |
| FisherP | is anyone a LAMP expert here?? | 10:01 |
| Ace_NoOne | so I better go for 512 MB there (got ~7.5 GB in total) | 10:01 |
| hyper_ch | Ace_NoOne: you use vmware? | 10:01 |
| Jucato | (actually, the same goes for virtual page/memory on XP...) | 10:01 |
| Ace_NoOne | hyper_ch: nope, using my laptop as a test system | 10:01 |
| Jucato | Ace_NoOne: how much RAM do you have? | 10:01 |
| lascar | sara: http://madwifi.org/ | 10:01 |
| Ace_NoOne | Jucato: 512 MB | 10:01 |
| Jucato | hm... yeah, 512MB swap would be good | 10:02 |
| Ace_NoOne | cool - thanks guys | 10:02 |
| stdin | genii: I have rc.d. no rc.conf | 10:02 |
| hyper_ch | Ace_NoOne: just wanting to point out that loading vmwae in virtual file makes it also slower... but on its own partition it's way more efficient | 10:02 |
| Ace_NoOne | I see | 10:02 |
| lascar | sara: this card isn't usb, right? | 10:02 |
| genii | stdin OK thx...just wondering. *bsd has this system | 10:02 |
| sara | it is usb | 10:02 |
| Ace_NoOne | and the swap partition should be an extended, not a primary one!? | 10:02 |
| sara | lascar ^^ | 10:03 |
| Jucato | Ace_NoOne: it can be anything | 10:03 |
| genii | stdin tho there it is usually in /usr/local/etc/rc.conf | 10:03 |
| Ace_NoOne | well, since I won't boot from it, extended sounds like a good idea (not that I really knew a lot about the difference there... ) | 10:03 |
| stdin | genii: I have /usr/local/etc/, but it's empty | 10:03 |

| ScarFreewill | i think thats the problem smb doesn't have accesss to the nfts hdd and to solve it i need to mount it defferantly | 11:03 |
| genii | dreamer start a konsole then type in mount and see if you have something like what old HD would be mounted. eg: sda1 or so | 11:03 |
| genii | dreamer I forget if knoppix tries to mount all filesystems it sees under somewhere like /media/something or /mnt/something | 11:04 |
| ForgeAus | Scar you need at least read access possibly read/write to be able to select files/folders to share out.... | 11:04 |

| ForgeAus | permissions ahh NTFS has extras | 11:06 |
| dreamer | genii: check my paste | 11:06 |
| genii | dreamer Yes pastebin is good :) So for now we try to make a temp dir to try and mount what should be old / so something like mkdir /mnt/temp then try mounting the old one like: mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/temp then see if you can ls anything in that dir | 11:06 |
| ScarFreewill | the hdd is only umask=007 i need to change it so smb can use it | 11:06 |

| VMT2007 | I liked irssi back when I was exclusively a tty user | 11:10 |

| ForgeAus | (aside from X-Chat which you said you didn't want) | 11:12 |

| genii | dreamer Well, that initrd was from an install of course... however, that it boots to it indicates to me that the initrd seems to be the issue | 01:37 |

| === jack_wyt_ [n=jack@61.49.221.61] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| genii | dreamer Same process as you just followed but we already have the backup of the original of course | 01:39 |

| Jucato | malik_: yes it's not :) | 01:41 |
| genii | dreamer there may be some specific things in the initrd from your box but a generic one will do. The initrd I sent you too is for installing edgy from a harddrive so it has some instrucions on it already about looking for an iso etc etc | 01:41 |

| === Eyeless [n=hjalle@h124n2fls32o891.telia.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||

| Jucato | malik_: um.. no... it only saves the tabs during crashes | 01:42 |
| dreamer | genii: aaah | 01:42 |
| genii | dreamer like mount -o loop /some.iso /somewhere | 01:43 |

| fiandre | genii: so I dunno how to close the desktop stuff | 02:12 |
| genii | fiandre so in another session do something like ps ax|grep ttynamehere|more and then see if there is a subprocess of ssh/sshd being called kde specific to pull the pid and kill or hup it | 02:12 |
| dreamer | genii: get an ubuntu live cd then? but it should be edgy-server no? | 02:12 |

| genii | dreamer today I am at our shop babysitting about 27 machines as they auto-install dapper onto themselves from a local repo mirror I have here. i'm writing some stuff so each gets a different username and some other stuff like a modem driver that needs to be precompiled etc. This needs to be as automated as possible but I still need to do some input occasionally etc | 02:44 |
| paolo | thanks | 02:44 |

| dwidmann | oggy, as I said, it works fine if you have compatible hardware, if not, that's not linux's fault that you didn't check that you had compatible hardware before installing. | 03:26 |

| Xal | I didn't see the point in buying a sound card. | 03:26 |
| steveire | is there an amarok script to correct all of the id3 tags on my songs? For example if I have "Under The Bridge" by "Red Hot Chili Peppers" on album "None/unknown", it would correct the album to "Bloos Sugar Sex Magik". It already gets album art, so I don't see why not. I don't see the tool though. | 03:26 |

| Alumin | format-wise they're just gzipped tar archives | 05:05 |
| ForgeAus | well they're all installable packages | 05:05 |

| ForgeAus | erm installable sourcecode like | 05:05 |
| ForgeAus | with headers and c files etc | 05:05 |
| ForgeAus | that can be installed, just that slackware needs a special kinda file to initiate the script right? | 05:05 |
| Alumin | well yeah, I mean if you want to get technical, .deb packages are just ar archives with some special sauce | 05:05 |

| ForgeAus | your using kubuntu? | 05:08 |
| Alumin | yah | 05:08 |
| Alumin | 6.06 | 05:08 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm can't initialize KDE frontend? that doesn't seem to make sense | 05:09 |
| ForgeAus | did you remove an important package from it somewhere along the line? | 05:09 |
| Alumin | I looked in the config files for debconf and apt-listchanges | 05:09 |
| ForgeAus | maybe you should check for broken packages or dependancies | 05:09 |
| Alumin | ForgeAus: the actual error is X server connection permissions | 05:09 |
| Alumin | I know why it's not connecting | 05:09 |
| Alumin | the question is, why is it trying? | 05:09 |
| ForgeAus | um doesn't adept automatically use kdesu? | 05:10 |

| tony_ | thanks anyways dr.. now i have to figure how to uninstall this program | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | uninstall? gee.. wny not learn to fix it. :) | 05:23 |
| ForgeAus | yeah thats one problem I also have with linux too, everything seems like its all patched together, too much command line and stuff to organize/fix/install/run stuff.... | 05:23 |
| ForgeAus | not very user friendly that way | 05:23 |

| Dr_willis | the kdmrc file has a lot of places to set options.. im just not sure what option you are needing to do what exactly. :P you could always block things with iptables rules from going where you dont want them. | 05:35 |
| scythe128 | forge, how the ??? did you do that? | 05:35 |
| ForgeAus | scythe :) | 05:35 |
| Alumin | Dr_willis: I want to define the network interfaces that the X server binds to | 05:35 |
| ForgeAus | that I'll keep a secret for now | 05:35 |
| Alumin | by default, it binds to 0.0.0.0, ie all interfaces | 05:36 |
| scythe128 | hehe, wouldnt caare, but I think its hillarius | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis | cant say that ive ever messed with it at that deep a level Alumin - last few times ive heard people in here asking similer things, I recall they either used the various kdm config files to launch X the way they wanted.. or resorted to iptable rules. sorry i cant help much more then that. | 05:37 |
| ForgeAus | A Vista-enabled version of wine is goign to be VERY interesting | 05:37 |
| Alumin | Dr_willis: that's cool, I'm actually not sure if it's possible, surprisingly enough | 05:37 |
| Alumin | I mean, firewalling the port closed with netfilter/iptables is a workaround, but the right solution is just to not open the port in the first place | 05:37 |
| Alumin | rather than open it and then put a cork in it | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | Alumin, often if you dont think its possible - its because theres some much better way to do what you want to do... try approaching the problem from a differnet angle. :) | 05:38 |

| scythe128 | unless you accept the fact that you would have to squish vista to get the wine:) | 05:39 |
| ForgeAus | good question rock :) I have no idea! | 05:39 |
| BluesKaj | I'm more comfortable with XP too , but running it in Linux isn't my idea of learning a new OS :) | 05:39 |
| scythe128 | forge, check out firefox or opera to replace ie and gaim or kopete to replace yahoo im | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | Alumin, its amazing the # of options out there :) | 05:39 |
| rockprincess | because it's a bit odd that it works on dapper but not on edgy | 05:39 |

| ForgeAus | I have checked otu them | 05:40 |

| ForgeAus | lol | 05:40 |

| ForgeAus | problem is you have to extract it manually first | 05:41 |
| scythe128 | aggghhhh, note worth it to me | 05:42 |
| Dr_willis | i cant get squat running in wine lately. even stuff that used to work - dont want to any more. | 05:42 |
| Alumin | I think my problem is with the dongle though | 05:42 |
| ForgeAus | then run it with a ./(ies4linux executable)... | 05:42 |
| ForgeAus | first things first, make sure you have wine and cabextract | 05:42 |
| rockprincess | Alumin: it's a Surecom Dongle...dunno the exact brand...seems to me like a no-name brand..... | 05:42 |
| scythe128 | Ill just use the windows machine for that | 05:42 |
| ForgeAus | then run that script and it'll install the rest | 05:42 |
| ForgeAus | it'll be interesting if/when they have ieview/ietab plugin for firefox working under ies4linux tho | 05:43 |

| ForgeAus | grrrr | 06:04 |
| ForgeAus | adept is a gui program | 06:04 |
| ForgeAus | I don't hitnk there is a text/ncurses version of it | 06:04 |
| Alumin | BTR: did you try just running "adept"? | 06:05 |
| ForgeAus | apt-get or aptitude would be the closest right? | 06:05 |
| ForgeAus | Alumin adept isn't the command | 06:05 |
| endo602 | there is no man entry for it | 06:05 |

| ForgeAus | um I thought thats waht I was sayinga ll along? wasn't it? | 06:06 |
| Alumin | pidentd might be just a plain old identd daemon that just implements the base RFC | 06:06 |
| ForgeAus | I just forgot to put kdesu first (at first) thats all | 06:06 |

| Dr_willis | gnomefreak, the frostwire/limwire guys - about the bash/dask issue we noticed a few mo ago. | 06:09 |
| dwidmann | I might have to toy around with Ruby sometime, but I don't feel like it. | 06:09 |
| Dr_willis | i noticed the !frostwire url now has info on the topic as well. :) but aprently that not the guys issue. | 06:10 |
| ForgeAus | dwid, sure you can but if I were you python would be my priority out of the two | 06:10 |

| ForgeAus | my guess is Haskell is the next language microsoft will incorporate | 06:11 |
| gnomefreak | Dr_willis: yes i was told by someone (not related to frostwire) that the next build they were working on would not fix the issue. however someone is working on it on the ubuntu side. once i get it i will post the .deb somewhere | 06:11 |

| === eigenvalue [n=johannes@dslb-088-070-087-041.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| dwidmann | jordo23, do you mean kubuntu-desktop? | 06:14 |
| ForgeAus | um did you upgrade it to kjubuntu? | 06:14 |
| Dr_willis | gnomefreak, what did ya want? them to use only posix shell stuff? :) | 06:14 |
| jordo23 | dwidmann: Yeah.....sorry | 06:14 |
| gnomefreak | Dr_willis: yes :( | 06:14 |
| Dr_willis | gnomefreak, and what would that gain anyway? i never have understood that end of the argument. | 06:14 |
| dwidmann | kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage depending on all the packages in a default kubuntu install. | 06:14 |
| ForgeAus | if you just installed the kubuntu-desktop you should still have ubuntu, but if you upgraded it you might now have kubuntu instead | 06:15 |
| jordo23 | I am having a dreadful problem with apt where it lists packages that are downloaded and no longer required to install packages, they are listed every time. | 06:15 |
| dwidmann | So, in short jordo23, you're running both. | 06:15 |
| jordo23 | Apt-get autoremove would remove essential packages.... | 06:15 |
| ForgeAus | dwidman true :) | 06:15 |
| jordo23 | anyone here an apt genius? | 06:15 |
| gnomefreak | Dr_willis: dash is faster than bash and handles things differently afaik the errors are more understandable but i havent tested side by side | 06:15 |
| ForgeAus | jordo I'm not | 06:15 |
| gnomefreak | jordo23: what about apt | 06:16 |

| ForgeAus | same | 06:16 |
| jordo23 | gnomefreak: i will pastebin....one sec | 06:16 |
| gnomefreak | k | 06:16 |
| ForgeAus | it also bothers me when installed packages don't show up as installed | 06:16 |
| gnomefreak | ForgeAus: using what way of checking? | 06:17 |
| ForgeAus | ie chatzilla, you can install it as a plugin to firefox but adept won't recognize it as being installed | 06:17 |
| trappist | Dr_willis: if your script isn't posix-compatible, the shebang should call bash, not sh | 06:17 |
| gnomefreak | ForgeAus: if you didnt get it from the repos it wont show it asa installed | 06:17 |
| gnomefreak | most of time | 06:17 |
| dwidmann | If the script isn't posix compliant, someone should get off their lazy butt and make it posix compliant hehehe | 06:17 |
| ForgeAus | gnomefreak sure but if you have multiple versions (and/or multiple repositories) it could show up to 3 or 4 versions of the same app | 06:18 |
| jordo23 | dwidmann: when I try to install a simple package, like Jokosher.....it lists almost every essential package and tells me to apt autoremove http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/851075 | 06:18 |
| Dr_willis | dwidmann, and thats the core of the question i am asking.. what does making it posix complent really do for them. | 06:18 |
| Alumin | Dr_willis: the reason for the posix argument is cross-platform compatibility | 06:18 |
| ForgeAus | I had that with idle for python | 06:18 |
| ForgeAus | 3 lots of it showing up... | 06:18 |
| Alumin | same reason people use #!/bin/sh in their shell scripts instead of #!env bash | 06:18 |
| gnomefreak | ForgeAus: only one version can be installed | 06:18 |
| ForgeAus | admittedly one was a different version of python | 06:18 |
| PasNox | thanks for the help... | 06:18 |
| Dr_willis | I tend to use #!/bin/rexx :) | 06:19 |
| Dr_willis | but i am old-skool | 06:19 |
| gnomefreak | Alumin: those are 2 differnet shebangs for 2 differrnt terminals | 06:19 |
| dwidmann | and cross-shell compatibility too ... say we want to use in in dash, or ash, or something other than bash. If a script will only run in bash, then that means it is using **bash specific features** | 06:19 |
| ForgeAus | dwid precisely | 06:20 |
| gnomefreak | you can configure what you want the system to use | 06:20 |

| Alumin | that's why I don't write many scripts in zsh, even though it's so much better | 06:20 |

| ForgeAus | or would a symbolic (or hard?) link work? | 06:27 |
| jordo23 | gnomefreak: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/851083 | 06:27 |
| gnomefreak | jordo23: the ONLY time apt will remove something on an install command is if it conflicts with a package. jokosher has nothing to do with kde at all only python with a oython-gnome app | 06:28 |
| Dr_willis | ForgeAus, you could download the extension files to some dir. and let the users get to that dir.. or perhaps some how install them in to the /etc/skel dir and all new users would then get them by default | 06:28 |
| jbchua | hey, I need help configuring a GRUB boot config :\ | 06:28 |
| ForgeAus | lol DrWillis I'm not very multi-user minded at least not with this PC because its mine and I'm pretty much tthe only one that uses it | 06:28 |
| ForgeAus | but I can understand being mindful of other users on a multi-user system is important | 06:28 |
| jordo23 | gnomefreak: I understand that, how do I get apt back to normal? | 06:28 |

| dwidmann | jordo23, perhaps the source of your apt problem is resultant of using a mixture of aptitude and apt-get, and possibly other things? hmm, perhaps apt-get -f install would do something useful, that should cough up a fit if you have broken packages | 06:28 |

| jordo23 | gnomefreak: tried it, still lists the packages, but nothing installed or removed | 06:29 |

| ForgeAus | you might be able to check that out (where boot.ini used to be in XP/2k) under my computer - properties (or start menu control panel - system in classic mode) | 06:32 |
| jbchua | and it has a thing called NeoGRUB | 06:33 |
| MetaMorfoziS | or you want to select/unselect some boottime starting service? | 06:33 |
| jbchua | supposedly you can just config it like GRUB but it doesn't seem to be working | 06:33 |

| Alumin | my favorite p2p app is mldonkey | 12:00 |
| Alumin | that's overkill for most people's needs though I guess | 12:00 |
| Linux_Galore | if you want to cover "all" the protocols (even bittorent) its hard to go by mldonkey (with the kmldonkey GUI) | 12:00 |
| Alumin | kmldonkey is nice, check out sancho too | 12:01 |
| Linux_Galore | mldonkey is basically the kitchen sink app of p2p | 12:01 |
| Alumin | yeah, that's why I like it :) | 12:02 |
| Alumin | although I sometimes use Azureus for BT stuff | 12:02 |
| Linux_Galore | if mldonkey doesnt support the protocol its because its not worth the bother | 12:02 |
| === flaccid [n=chris@dev.ionata.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| Linux_Galore | yeah, azureus is still the king of speed on BT | 12:03 |
| Alumin | I just like the fact that it's client/server | 12:03 |
| Alumin | I don't care about speed that much, I just like the feature set | 12:03 |
| === Alumin is patient :) | ||
| Linux_Galore | Ive yet to find anything that gives me 400k/s + | 12:03 |
| Linux_Galore | other than azureus | 12:03 |
| Alumin | wtf are you downloading that you get 400k/s hehe | 12:04 |

| hepme | kde refuses to load for me for some reason. it just shows the background wallpaper image and the cursor and that's it. no panel or desktop icon or anything. then after a few minutes it completely freezes and i have to reboot | 12:08 |
| Alumin | I suppose I shouldn't complain, we did manage to evolve past the two cups connected by string | 12:08 |
| Linux_Galore | Alumin: heh, Australia is pretty remote, USA get newer hardware and better prices than we do | 12:08 |
| Linux_Galore | gets* | 12:08 |
| hepme | it was working fine before and i shutdown properly and booted into windows but when i came back to kubuntu it wont load, i'm in console mode right now | 12:08 |

| hepme | does k3b work from the livecd? i might need to use the livcd to burn files to recover since kde wont load for me anymore | 12:10 |
| Linux_Galore | hepme: yes | 12:10 |
| Alumin | hepme: should, as long as the hardware autodetect found your cd writer | 12:10 |

| Linux_Galore | Mace68: Linux has a built in firewall | 12:12 |

| BluesKaj | hepme, ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ' | 12:12 |

| Linux_Galore | Mace68: Kubuntu doesnt enable the firewall by default but its easy to set it up, just install firestarter | 12:12 |
| Alumin | well, you'll need those either way | 12:12 |
| Alumin | those are the programs k3b uses to make CDs from on-disk data | 12:12 |
| Mace68 | via apt-get i guess? | 12:12 |
