| Minataku | Of course Windows NT has you gallavanting around as that more-or-less-root Administrator by default | 01:34 |
| Jucato | CakeProphet: the permissions for NTFS is meant to write protect the NTFS partition because writing to NTFS from Linux is dangerous | 01:34 |

| Minataku | Jucato: How is the NTFS partition mounted? If it's mounted so only root can access it, that's a dumb idea since Kubuntu doesn't want anyone using root | 01:37 |
| Jucato | CakeProphet: you really can't open /dev files | 01:37 |
| Minataku | Oh | 01:37 |

| Jucato | malik_: it really depends on what format those sites use. Kaffeine can do those with the proper backend. Some swear by mplayer though | 02:18 |
| malik_ | wma files | 02:18 |
| flaccid | !multimedia | 02:18 |
| ubotu | For multimedia codecs see: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html and for applications see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications | 02:18 |
| flaccid | worth a read for anything multimedia ^^^ | 02:18 |
| Jucato | malik_: for Kaffeine to be able to play WMA/WMV you need w32codecs | 02:18 |
| flaccid | i like xine for video, amarok for audio | 02:18 |
| malik_ | not to be rude but all these help pages are for ubuntu nothin specific on kubuntu | 02:19 |
| Jucato | malik_: not to be offensive, but have you read them at all? | 02:19 |
| flaccid | ubuntu and kubuntu use the same codecs, just different apps to play them... | 02:19 |
| flaccid | hehe | 02:19 |

| malik_ | i have w32 codecs but every time i click on a wma link i have to tell FF to play it with kaffeine and i have tyo do it everytime | 02:20 |
| Jucato | malik_: then it's a problem with Firefox's settings | 02:20 |
| flaccid | malik_: change default association for it in konqueror settings | 02:20 |
| flaccid | and check firefox also.. | 02:20 |
| Jucato | flaccid: err... FF | 02:20 |
| malik_ | i have installed w32codecs as well as kaffeine as well as mplayer and also libxine-extra codecs | 02:20 |
| flaccid | Jucato: might be good to set for system as well | 02:21 |
| Jucato | malik_: good. but Firefox uses its own settings so you'd have to set it separately | 02:21 |
| malik_ | how do i do that? | 02:21 |

| crimsun | rance: are you actually using the 'Line In' jack for speakers? | 02:55 |

| regeya | someone name a cheapo card which would nonetheless handle the fancy new eyecandy nicely | 02:57 |

| crimsun | rance: however, the cmipci codecs have a quirk in which the Line-In actually functions as a Line-Out as well, and by toggling the output to 'Rear Output', it functions audibly. However, the ALSA code has it backward, so you actually need to use 'Line-In' for the mode. | 02:58 |
| foxbunny | regeya: I think I remember people having some success with Intel cards... but I think they only come as integrated cards on Intel mobos... | 02:58 |

| HymnToLife | when will Kubuntu use GNOME ? :p | 03:55 |
| intelikey | indra vfat and ntfs don't have a permissions bit so mount sets a generic one for the entire mount point fmask is file mask and dmask is directory mask the mask is the octal permission minus the mask so fmask=111 means set file permissions to 666 and the dmask=000 means set dir perms to 777 that's full read/write access to all. | 03:55 |

| Hail_Spacecake | danke | 04:43 |
| intelikey | de nada | 04:43 |
| adamwest | i worked with gnome and then went to kde because it didnt have so many applications... but now i see kde is kinda sucky. thought about xfce. what do you think? | 04:43 |
| vursitis | i liked xfce | 04:44 |
| adamwest | lik-ed ? | 04:44 |
| intelikey | adamwest i think your first assumption was in error. | 04:44 |
| cac_ | if you wan to have more applications synaptic has at least 10000 | 04:44 |
| vursitis | currently, im using KDE, but xfce was great, it also isnt a ram hog | 04:44 |
| adamwest | what intelikey, that it didnt have apps? | 04:44 |
| intelikey | yes | 04:44 |
| adamwest | i see that now ^_^ | 04:45 |
| vursitis | lemmie rephraze that <adamwest> i still like xfce, but i now have a computer that can handle KDE | 04:45 |
| intelikey | adamwest do apt-cache search kde | wc -l some time. | 04:45 |
| adamwest | u see, i thought kde has more stuff because everywhere i go i see apps with K bolded out... and the partitioning thing bla bla bla | 04:45 |
| adamwest | no, my computer can handle stuff, vursitis, i want a fast and a GOOD environment.... | 04:46 |
| larson9999 | nothing that says you can't use gnome apps in kde and vice versa. | 04:46 |
| Hail_Spacecake | I have a laptop with both a wlan card and a regular ethernet card | 04:46 |
| Hail_Spacecake | network settings config sees eth0 and eth1 | 04:46 |

| intelikey | depends what you like. dsl uses it. give that a look some time. | 04:47 |

| vursitis | probally should have mentioned that | 04:50 |
| adamwest | well, DaSkreech, i used gnome until now and the only problem i had was this error with the keyboard stuff and other things, possibly less "user friendly" than kde. but kde is rather sucky now that i use it. especially konquerer. plus, it loads applications SO SLOWLY D: so now i want to know for sure what environment i should use... i have 512RAM and 1300mhz comp. xfce is supposed to be for slow computers, but i dont think my comp is that weak. | 04:50 |

| vursitis | like i said, that requires unstable resizing | 05:05 |
| adamwest | bah | 05:05 |
| adamwest | so what are my options | 05:05 |
| vursitis | i have never had good luck with resizing partitions, even if the unallocated space is at the end of the drive | 05:05 |
| vursitis | and all your doing is expanding the partition | 05:06 |
| intelikey | adamwest then all the more reason to add the new partition rather than resizing the old you can copy the config files to your home and thus save the setup time if anything were to happen. | 05:06 |

| adamwest | so i dont want to make mistakes here... i create a new partition in the unallocated space, and mount it to /home? won't that erase what's in home? | 05:08 |
| adamwest | the reason i wanted to marge it is because all the packages or enviroments are installed to the original ext3. i want to have more space for that kinda stuff | 05:08 |

| intelikey | adamwest make a partition the size you want to allocate for new software +3g and mount it /usr the rest on /home ? but there are a thousand ways to do things like that. if you are intent on streaching the root partition use the gparted cd | 05:12 |
| intelikey | !gparted | 05:12 |
| ubotu | gparted is gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "sudo apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 05:12 |
| intelikey | there ^ | 05:12 |
| adamwest | thanks, i know what that is :D umm with the livecd i could resize the linux ext3 without damaging the data? | 05:13 |
| intelikey | and i make no claim that it will not hose the system. | 05:13 |
| adamwest | oh | 05:13 |
| intelikey | should i repete that ? you have my word that if it destroies all data on the computer it has nothing to do with me.... | 05:14 |

| intelikey | matthew0507 ok you'll need to reconfigure xorg. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:15 |

| adamwest | 512 | 05:16 |
| matthew0507 | ty intelikey, will give it a try. | 05:16 |

| vursitis | well i wouldn't reinstall everything | 05:17 |
| matthew0507 | sure, i'll be back. ty again :) | 05:17 |
| inteliwasp | could someone point me to a tutorial on how to get teamspeak to work? | 05:17 |
| vursitis | like i said, just add it as another partition | 05:17 |
| vursitis | and for swap i would use about a gig | 05:17 |
| intelikey | adamwest you could migrate the install to a new partition.... | 05:17 |
| adamwest | how | 05:17 |
| intelikey | make and format the partition then copy everything over and edit fstab to reflect the new root device and reinstall grub | 05:18 |
| adamwest | .. and in newbe-ish? | 05:19 |
| vursitis | migrates are just about as bad as resizing, they just arent that stable, and there is no garauntee that everything will remain intact | 05:19 |

| intelikey | imo that would be the easiest. you would have the old install to fall back on until you were sure you got everything correct | 05:19 |
| vursitis | there is about a 50% chance of resizes and migrations being sucessfull, and everything still remaining bootable | 05:19 |
| intelikey | adamwest you can make a partition on the empty space right ? | 05:20 |
| adamwest | yeah | 05:20 |
| === wilbert [n=wilbert@200.56.161.174] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| vursitis | do it, just allocate it as a new media device and just use it as extra storage space, that honestly will be your safest bet on not having to reinstall everything | 05:21 |
| intelikey | the format command would look something like sudo mke2fs -cj /dev/hda1 notice that hda1 is an example be sure you know the correct address. | 05:21 |
| adamwest | but vursitis, i told u guys -- i need the extra space for the environment packages and stuff.. not docs and such | 05:21 |
| adamwest | and intelikey i have gparted installed | 05:21 |
| intelikey | vursitis that doesn't fit the demands. | 05:21 |

| adamwest | sec | 05:23 |
| adamwest | yup. end. | 05:23 |
| intelikey | doesn't matter where. | 05:23 |
| vursitis | alright... well, then, i guess your best and safest option would be to resize | 05:23 |
| intelikey | just be sure you know the address. hda6 for example. | 05:23 |
| vursitis | do you have gparted? | 05:23 |
| adamwest | lol all you guys said resizing won't be safe | 05:24 |
| adamwest | and i have gparted vursitis | 05:24 |
| intelikey | it's not. | 05:24 |
| intelikey | not on a running system. | 05:24 |
| vursitis | well no, its not safe, but if you need it for config files, resizing is safer than migrating | 05:24 |
| intelikey | vursitis what about migrating to the new partition.... simple fast safe. | 05:24 |
| adamwest | if i run this gparted livecd, itll allow me to resize the partition? | 05:25 |
| vursitis | only problem with that, is, i have done a few migrations, and for some reason, none of the migrated partitions have ever kept their bootable status | 05:25 |
| vursitis | if it was just docs, it would be safer, but when your dealing with bootable partitions, it seems to have a hard time retaining that status | 05:26 |

| mcrandello | keep the numbers written down and in theory you can re-resize the partition perhaps | 05:27 |
| adamwest | SO WHAT SHOULD I DO D: | 05:27 |
| vursitis | my opinion, resize | 05:27 |
| mcrandello | full backup followed by flatten and reimage on the new partition (sorry, I just got here) | 05:28 |
| intelikey | i've already stated mine. so take your pick. | 05:28 |
| mcrandello | either way I'd be backing up anything important whatever you decide | 05:28 |
| vursitis | now its just whichever you would feel more comfortable/capable of doing | 05:28 |
| vursitis | i agree | 05:29 |
| vursitis | i think he said he has already backed everything up | 05:29 |
| adamwest | yeah, i dont have anything important... it's just pain in the ass to get all the internet adsl settings and language stuff back :( | 05:29 |
| intelikey | actually he said there were configs he didn't want to have to redo | 05:29 |
| vursitis | yeah, i know what you mean | 05:29 |

| Jucato | adamwest: for example. with ftp://, ssh:/ and sftp:/, you won't need a separate FTP program | 08:01 |
| Jucato | adamwest: KDE doesn't make packages for distros. it just provides source code | 08:01 |
| dwidmann | adamwest: that's only present in Ubuntu Edgy, and it's already removed in Feisty, and wasn't present in Dapper. Wasn't restricted to Kubuntu either ... got the same effect in Ubuntu as well. | 08:01 |

| intelikey | adamwest yes. | 08:02 |
| Jucato | adamwest: yes. Fesity Fawn due on 2007 April | 08:02 |
| adamwest | so why does gnome show the files but kde won't? | 08:02 |

| intelikey | read that adamwest | 08:02 |
| Jucato | adamwest: again, it's just Kubuntu doing this | 08:02 |
| dwidmann | karl: asking that question in a kde channel will surely give you skewed results, of course kde is better :) | 08:03 |
| intelikey | karl no. | 08:03 |
| karl | do you guys all use kubuntu full time? | 08:03 |
| === dwidmann does | ||
| Jucato | "better" is subjective. in the end, "better" means what *you* like/want/need | 08:03 |

| mcrandello | wait what's not working with gmail? | 08:45 |

| mervteck | i hear that elyon! | 10:25 |
| elyon | esc: Then we'll have something in common... I can handle that ;) | 10:25 |

| intelikey | esc no not "<esc> same as the livecd install...just fugly" more flexable. | 10:26 |

| Thehound666 | pingfu looked more promising on wine, it'd connect and full GUI loaded | 05:34 |
| Thehound666 | but enter your key and crash | 05:34 |
| Thehound666 | and it wouldn't remember after the crash | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | the idea of a program running under wine, or vmware, that some how reduces lag in games on the linux box.. seems... odd... | 05:34 |
| Alarm | is ti possible to add gkrellm when minimized to be on the taskbar ? | 05:34 |
| etheri | hi. I have a a package that has started playing up over the last few days. apt-get removing it wants to pull in kubuntu-desktop. Is this important or is it just a meta package? can I just remove the package sans dependencies? | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | Alarm, i belve you can some how add it to the "Dock Application Bar" panel. | 05:35 |
| Thehound666 | it doesn't reduce lag it's just a low ping tunnel | 05:35 |
| Theory | etheri: what package, and do you want to remove it or reinstall it? | 05:35 |
| Thehound666 | ordinarily, the games are blocked | 05:35 |
| Thehound666 | by firewall | 05:35 |
| Jucato | etheri: it's just a metapackage. but make sure you reinstall it before you dist-upgrade to the next release | 05:35 |
| Alarm | Dr_willis, what do u mean with dock application bar ? | 05:35 |
| Dr_willis | so you have the same high ping.. the games just let you in anyway thinking you have a low ping.. | 05:35 |
| Thehound666 | no | 05:35 |

| Dr_willis | Alarm, right click on the panel, Add New Panel --> dock application bar. Its designed to let you dock windowmaker type docks | 05:36 |

| etheri | Jucato: thanks, nice to know :) | 05:38 |
| Theory | etheri: your problem may be caused by your user-specific config files, which apt-get --reinstall won't touch | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | brett, proberly not. Ive had good luck with my Audigy cards and have rarely had sound issues. a lot of that stuff depends on the specific apps and what sound servers they are using. | 05:39 |
| Thehound666 | If I got a Unix shell maybe I could ssh forward with that | 05:39 |
| Thehound666 | might want to check them out | 05:39 |
| brett | Dr_willis: ok | 05:39 |
| brett | Can someone help me trouble shoot a sound issue? | 05:39 |
| etheri | Theory: well, only one way to find out. If I leave this channel in the next few minutes it'll be because my computer crashed, again :D | 05:39 |
| Thehound666 | well I'll do the VMWare alternative as I look for Unix shell hosts | 05:40 |
