[01:44] Change that first auto to ext3 if you like, it's not necessary though [01:44] elyon225, dats just weird, it should b available [01:45] rickympl: I completely agree... and it may, but if it does, it isn't in the logical location.

[02:11] bobleny: Actually, it's completely possible for it to happen at random in this case [02:11] How so? [02:11] It's just something weird between the kernel and ACPI [02:12] bxnp: Do you use shutdown or power switch? [02:12] well i use the shutdown menu in kde === nothlit_ is now known as nothlit [02:12] bxnp: Well, non-contiguious inodes indicates a fault in the filesystem [02:12] kmenu -> Log Out... -> Turn Off Computer [02:12] but somethimes in the beginning some program let my kubuntu crash and then i use the power button Minataku [02:13] bxnp: There ya go [02:13] oke Minataku how can i solve this [02:13] i mean correct this [02:13] bxnp: Figure out what's crashing and cure it or don't use it anymore [02:13] lol [02:13] i already have [02:13] i dont use that program anymore [02:13] but still have non contiguous inodes [02:14] Okay, then the fact that you're seeing complaints about "non-contiguious inodes" means that fsck is running and found them [02:14] It should have fixed them in the same swipe [02:14] Why is it doing it more frequentlly though? It wasn't even doing this at first. Now it is almost every time I try to turn the thing off [02:14] Unless Kubuntu does something stupid [02:14] but i see everytime the same percentage [02:14] bobleny: I have no idea, perhaps your BIOS is stupid [02:14] 6.2 procent [02:14] bxnp: Doh === Tonren [n=mcantor@ip68-107-129-32.tc.ph.cox.net] has joined #kubuntu [02:14] its not repairing anything [02:14] I bought a dvdrw today, the HD was connected to ide1, I switched it to ide2 and put the dvd unit to ide1... then when booting I got : "unable to read partition table" and many "Drive Seek error" or something like that... so I switched back the HD to ide1 and... got the same error [02:14] I'm thinking of the wrong thing, sorry [02:14] KDE LiveJournal client.

[01:10] codyt Does the box which is connecting by modem have another IP which is on the eth0 interface? [01:10] genii i think its pretty logical, cause if hdc1 is the first partition it should be 0 not 1 [01:10] genii, yes. [01:10] codyt You could try to put that as the gateway on the client machine [01:11] no no, I don't know what to put as the gateway on *this* machine. [01:11] HymnToLife: Hehe, I can wait :D [01:11] It keeps refusing to save my settings, because 0.0.0.0 is an invalid IP for the default gateway. === m1r4g3 is back.

[01:13] codyt When I say "client machine" I mean the machine you have connected by ethernet card to the machine which is using the modem to reach the internet [01:13] I know exactly what you mean. [01:13] You're not understanding me, I guess. [01:14] juano_ Yes [01:14] genii ok [01:14] genii then reboot? [01:14] juano_ Yes, and then we will know [01:14] genii ok [01:15] codyt By default gateway then you mean the default gateway for the interface eth0 on the machine with the modem? [01:15] on the machine with the modem. The KDE configure thing requires me to put one in.

[01:16] genii it worked... i cant believe it [01:17] codyt You should not need to alter any ppp0 settings. This should be getting autoassigned by your isp and so on. Since the ip and gateway and so on will change every time you dial in for instance there will be no set gateway and so on [01:17] juano_ :) [01:17] genii im back in the kubuntu box!! man thanks for your help! [01:17] then this configuration tool is retarded. [01:17] genii thanks very much! [01:17] I can't *not* set it.

[01:18] codyt Yes, you will be in a loopback hyell [01:18] hell even [01:18] HymnToLife: I tried with mc that allow me to read into the package .deb, but it don't allow me to modify anything.

[06:53] ScarFreewill, thats the problem.. we installed the files where they should go.. and even then the program wouldent set up the theme right. === Black5un is now known as ^SuRe[work] [06:54] ScarFreewill, the kbfx controlcenter/perferances has a setting for what dir to put them in.. you could put them anywhere.. as long as you tell kbfx where to look. === richard__ [n=richard@12.18.108.130] has joined #kubuntu === richard__ is now known as snowrichard [06:54] ScarFreewill, but we had it seeing the themes.. it just wouldent load them.

I first tried doing the installer's "Distribution Specific" package, but that wouldn't allow me to enable direct rendering and gave me some strange vendor name (Tungsten). Now, I can't install the regular ATI... it still says Tungstren. === chrisrockt [n=chris@dslb-084-063-143-011.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu === ubuntu_ [n=ubuntu@xdslm163.osnanet.de] has joined #kubuntu [06:58] elyon225, what video card? === yelonek [n=yelonek@abtc43.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu [06:58] Dr_willis: Radeon 9600 [06:58] hey guyz when i try to connect to dalnet on irc it says i have open proxy on my system or somethin..........any workaround for that? [06:58] ive normally just followed the !ati wiki page. an gotten it working for my 9700, and X200M === macconline [n=macconli@190.37.33.110] has joined #kubuntu [06:58] that should also work for the 9600 [06:58] dysmann: try this one: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2883/ . I commented it so you know what the script is doing. Hopefully it works (but it at least did for my username). Save it into a file, e.g. autonetworkmanager.py and then do from console: sudo python autonetworkmanager.py alice bob charlie if alice bob and charlie are the names you want to add the symlinks to [06:58] hmm, how do i install a .deb package? cant remember :p [06:58] Dr_willis: Yeah, I usually do too... [06:58] lordhaart: dpkg --install [06:58] to enable dri.. i was thinking you had to change a line in the xorg.conf, and also i had to reboot to kick the driver in the head the first time. :) [06:59] Dr_willis: I guess I'll try that again. But the thing is, when I first installed Kubuntu, whatever driver it installed worked perfectly... even allowed Composite rendering. [06:59] dysmann: you can also do sudo python autonetworkmanager.py `ls /home` to add just to all usernames [06:59] elyon225, that would of been the ati driver - is my guess. [06:59] ok [06:59] Dr_willis: But every other time I've used the ATI driver, I needed to disable Composite in order for "Direct Rendering" to work. [06:59] :) [07:00] I do recall some edit to the xorg.conf to disable composite. [07:00] dima2001> is the knetwork manager need root ? [07:00] I dont have an ati machine handy to check. so cant help ya much more === X2B [n=1@p548E614C.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu [07:00] dysmann: no [07:00] oh looks like I'll get it soon anyways [07:00] Dr_willis: Happen to have an extra nvidia card lying around? ATI has been nothing but trouble (even their Windows driver support sucks) === frojnd [n=wildchil@BSN-77-169-220.static.dsl.siol.net] has joined #kubuntu [07:01] dysmann: that's the greatest part about it :) [07:01] dima2001 > it connect also without root, it's perfect ! [07:01] 3.5.6 has yet to make it into feisty [07:01] thank you very much [07:01] elyon225, thats why i dont have an ati box now.. friend updated his nvidia box.. and gave me his 5500 card. :) [07:01] n8k99: it'll get there soon [07:01] dysmann: no problem :) [07:01] haha, nice. [07:01] yeah - I'll probably see an new update for it tomorrow dwidmann [07:02] Maybe I should start making friends that at least know how to turn ON a computer ;) [07:02] elyon225, ive had very good luck with my 9700 in the last few months.. :) after years of pain... [07:02] that's usually how it works out [07:02] but the fans were startingto go out, in it. ;) [07:02] elyon225: ahahaha!! === ubuntu [n=ubuntu@151.53.73.234] has joined #kubuntu [07:02] Dr_willis: Do you know how to revert back to the original driver used for installation of Kubuntu? === ubuntu is now known as newubuntu [07:02] elyon225, not sure if you isntalled the atiwhatever.run script.. if it has a uninstall thing or not. [07:03] dima2001> so I save it to filename.py and run it to a terminal ? [07:03] dwidmann: Seriously... the only friends I have bought top of the line, cutting edge computers and all they do is play solitaire. And I'm stuck with this piece of junk [07:03] elyon225, i always backup my xorg.conf :) could change it back to using the ati driver. [07:03] elyon225, install ssh on their box's and use them for.. err... rendering farms! :) [07:03] Dr_willis: Well, I'm using the ati driver now, but fglrxinfo still displays a different vendor. [07:03] elyon225: irony strikes again [07:04] dysmann: yes, you save the text of the script into filename.py and then do from the terminal sudo python filename.py a list of usernames . It will then add links into usernames' autostart folders itself [07:04] dwidmann: Heh, story of my life. I had an old DOS box, trying to squeeze every bit of power out of it, while everyone I knew bought brand new systems with Windows 95... just to play minesweeper. :) Eh, but this is offtopic, so I'll stop ranting. === ubuntu [n=ubuntu@151.53.73.234] has joined #kubuntu [07:05] e.g. sudo filename.py alice bob charlie === Kiongku [n=waikeung@ADSL-TPLUS-106-209.telecomplus.net] has joined #kubuntu [07:05] and it will create knetworkmanager link in /home/alice/.kde/Autostart, /home/bob ... and /home/charlie === pacia [n=pacia@aajq48.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu === PupenoR_ [n=pupeno@200.123.183.91] has joined #kubuntu [07:06] Perhaps I could talk my mother into buying a new nvidia card if Linux keeps crashing :) She's still pissed that I got rid of all my pirated software, though. Hehe, you try to do the right thing and bam! [07:06] Theres some nice low end nvidia cards in the $50 range. [07:06] Dr_willis: Similar at least to the 9600? === delight [n=delight@lxben1.ub.Uni-Dortmund.DE] has joined #kubuntu [07:07] get yourself a 6600gt or something for about $50ish [07:07] given that 'low end' now a days - is like what was TOP end 2-3 years ago. === PupenoR_ [n=pupeno@200.123.183.91] has joined #kubuntu [07:07] I would think a 6600 nvidia would beat a 9600 === ubuntu is now known as newubuntu [07:07] I would think a 6600 nvidia would beat a 9600ati.

[07:08] just because the ati drivers are so poor ...

[09:20] <[Ag0ny] > e1505s have several possible ones afaik === manolo [n=manolo@87.219.125.137] has joined #kubuntu === chema [n=root@126.Red-81-37-128.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] === sorush20 [n=sorush20@87-194-99-254.bethere.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu [09:21] sredna: for good reason. feel free to start your own distro that operates differently, but I think you'll learn very quickly why everyone does it this way. [09:21] trappist: Exactly. The only problem I experienced so far with kubuntu, doing exactly that, is the problems with apt* behaving silly, or not explaining why it makes some choices === seth_ [n=seth@ubuntu/member/sethkinast] has joined #kubuntu === g7vac [n=g7vac@host86-140-41-117.range86-140.btcentralplus.com] has joined #kubuntu === seth_ is now known as seth === hans [n=hans@dsl-aur-fed7f800-8.dhcp.inet.fi] has joined #kubuntu === gan|y|med [n=ganymed@87-194-80-23.bethere.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu [09:23] sredna: in ubuntu and debian, I have *never* seen apt behave inappropriately. I've run into problems installing software, but it's always been because of problems with the packages, not the package manager. === cgreco [n=cgreco@217.201.140.54] has joined #kubuntu [09:23] hi === __mikem [n=__mikem@72.187.108.38] has joined #kubuntu === oem [n=oem@drsd-4db33c0d.pool.einsundeins.de] has joined #kubuntu [09:23] trappist: As far as apt is concerned, I'm a silly user. I get pissed when it doesn't do what I expect without explaining why. [09:24] i use gaim so far in edgy (kubuntu). but i wanted to give kopete a try, especially because gaim is still a bit buggy and kopete seems to have webcam support. [09:24] trappist: still it's arguable whether a good package manager should choke on certain things and refuse to work anymore without messing up with files manually, even if it's a package's fault === X2B [n=1@p548E614C.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu === ufuntu [n=ufuntu@adsl-255-175.diodos.auth.gr] has joined #kubuntu [09:24] my problem is, when i connect via icq, no contacts are shown (offline contacts is on, some people are online right now). it works in gaim though... can anybody hlp? === ufuntu [n=ufuntu@adsl-255-175.diodos.auth.gr] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [09:24] Ok I tried it but it didn't work. The permission to all the files are drwx, and everything else works just fine with these. I can change the main directory, but nothing in it, and the persimmion appear to be the same [09:25] And the owner is the same too [09:25] gan|y|med: that is a bug, i belive it was fixed a while back. do you have edgy-updates enabled? === erad [n=vde@adsl-68-250-41-99.dsl.sfldmi.ameritech.net] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] [09:25] LjL: I figure it should be resilient to imperfect packages. I would like to see some fatal errors be warnings instead. [09:25] so no one knows about dapper and kde 3.5.6 ? [09:26] LjL: like with vim recently, where it wouldn't install because I didn't have some russian locale file installed. [09:26] I just upgraded to amarok 1.4.3 (I had the 1.3.9) and now when i play from my windows computer (cifs) the slider which indicates how far the song is playing doesnt move and I cannot seek forward with my mouse from it, ( I have kubuntu 6.06 dapper) Has anyone of you had this problem? (BTW. I already asked that at amarok channel, so dont forward me there...) === holger [n=holger@dslb-088-074-026-141.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [09:26] trappist: and i would like to see at least an ability to install *other* packages anyway despite errors [09:26] LjL: do you mean like unresolvable dependency issues? [09:27] LjL: usually the errors only appear when the package is uninstallable for some reason. Forcing will usually only make things work. if you want to override those things, it shouldn't be that easy. [09:27] trappist: hm no, those just remove the affected package AFAIK. i mean things like the k3d bug that i'll give you now [09:27] fdoving: yes - http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-updates main restricted [09:27] I would definitely like a --screw-dependencies option === Seeker` [n=Seeker@84-12-171-110.dyn.gotadsl.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu [09:27] trappist: there is. --force-depends [09:27] trappist: (and that's just an example, i just see too many instances of people - rightly - recommending "add an 'exit 0' to the postinst" 'cause that's really the only way) === chema [n=root@126.Red-81-37-128.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu [09:27] fdoving: isn't that a dpkg option? not apt? === mimi [n=mimi@net-land.pl] has joined #kubuntu [09:28] trappist: you can pass dpkg options to apt.

[09:29] trappist, fdoving: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/k3d/+bug/64848 [09:29] i think that might have gone to an SRU now, not entirely sure === chema [n=root@126.Red-81-37-128.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] [09:30] erad: there's a bug open on that one, iirc [09:30] it's particularly interesting because it managed to lock up my entire APT due to... a typo [09:30] trappist, ok [09:30] how is the sources.list line for egdy-updates??? [09:30] I just use md5sum anyway, so its not a big deal === Tmi [n=tommi@kr-lun-9-144-233-83.3.cust.bredband2.com] has joined #kubuntu === raquel_ [n=raquel@87.217.175.70] has joined #kubuntu [09:31] Ubotu, tell gan|y|med about easysource | gan|y|med, see the private message from Ubotu [09:31] thx === Narishma [n=narishma@lit75-1-81-57-34-98.fbx.proxad.net] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] === JOSF is now known as JOSFzzz [09:32] trappist: about the dpkg options, for example 'apt-get -o DPkg::Options='--force-confmiss' install [09:32] fdoving: wow. you'll forgive me for not getting that from the apt-get man page. [09:33] trappist: heh.. yes. i will. it's not well documented :) [09:33] nope :) === verve [n=jordan@unaffiliated/verve] has joined #kubuntu [09:34] does KDE have its own inetd.conf setup? [09:34] 'cause i have nullidentd in my inetd.conf [09:34] it was working in Gnome [09:34] fdoving: in fact, I'll go ahead and reiterate that apt-get should have an option to ignore dependencies, if only for a saner command line [09:34] doesn't seem to be running it in KDE though === Skrot [n=magnus@155.80-203-114.nextgentel.com] has joined #kubuntu [09:34] verve: is inetd running? [09:34] trappist: then you can use 'debget' instead. if you just want to download a deb, then force its isntallation with dpkg. [09:34] neg [09:35] but like.. in KDE Service Manager [09:35] KDE Internet Daemon is running [09:35] is that the equivalent to inetd? === yelonek [n=yelonek@absv117.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu [09:35] fdoving: yeah that's sort of what I've done in the past, but it's an unnecessary hassle when I know it's a bogus dependency or that I can safely ignore it [09:35] trappist: i don't understand why you wnat that though.. it's called depends because they are depends. === MaterMaravillae [n=pablo@124.pool85-54-150.dynamic.orange.es] has joined #kubuntu === TheInfinity [n=TheInfin@p508F017E.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu [09:36] trappist: if they are bogus you should re-package or make empty packages that provides the bogus-thing. (apt-cache show equivs) [09:36] fdoving: I always try to do it the package manager's way, but if I've installed (for example) a ruby module from source, and a package won't install because it's missing the *package* of that ruby module... [09:36] then make an equivs package that provides whatever you install from source. [09:37] fdoving: well I wish I'd heard of equivs before :) === soulrider [n=mauro@r201-217-130-62.dialup.adsl.anteldata.net.uy] has joined #kubuntu [09:37] I knew it was possible to create packages like that, but it's not worth the hassle, usually, to do it manually [09:38] hi everyone === emonkey [n=emonkey@static-pro-212-101-27-121.adsl.solnet.ch] has joined #kubuntu === dani [n=dani@dslb-084-063-033-132.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [09:38] trappist: equivs is very fast and easy, you make a control file with the description and depends/provides and run the command -> you have a .deb. [09:38] of course, I'd run into this issue a lot less often if ubuntu would package more ruby stuff. [09:39] especially rubygems. === erad [n=vde@adsl-68-250-41-99.dsl.sfldmi.ameritech.net] has left #kubuntu ["Leaving"] === faked_ [n=faked@c-71-60-69-94.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu [09:39] QUICK HELP I just deleted my usr folder (typo deleting another folder) and I dunno how to restore it and a buncha stuff isn't working!

[10:12] ubuntu_, jhutchins_wk, SpYmAn: afaik, only the panel and konsole can do pseudo-transparency, if you want transparency for other windows, you need compositing [10:13] jhutchins_wk: How do you UNDO something?

[10:15] slyfox: i'm not sure what the distinction is you're making between importing and whatever it is that you want it to do [10:15] scooter: umount it and mount again.

[10:16] jhutchins_wk: How about if I reinstalled Kubuntu? I have a seperate /home partition... what kinds of things would I lose if I did that?

[10:17] Error while copying to "/media/usbdisk". this is the error i get when trying to write to the disk [10:18] elyon225: I have heard that it really wants to format the partition, which means that unless /home is a seperate partition... [10:18] elyon225: if u setup installation right, then home will stay unchanged. [10:18] You do not have permissions to write to this folder. [10:18] elyon225: You can back up /home. [10:18] For example, all the settings I have for KDE, amarok, kopete, etc... would remain intact, right? [10:18] slyfox: what i mean is, in digikam's settings, you can set the Album LIbrary Path, and that's where it expects all your pictures to be [10:18] yes [10:18] what does red plug next to directory mean in Konq ? [10:18] elyon225: That' all in .kde - which you could also back up.

[10:22] You can do a manual "sync" before unmounting, but umount /dev/whatever _shoud_ sync before unmounting. [10:22] scooter: sudo mount [10:22] dawn_: So you'd probably want to disconnect the new drive first, then make sure it's not seeing it as mounted, to avoid writing the old directory to the new drive. [10:23] dawn_: I have actually succeeded in removing new media, replacing the old media, unmounting properly, and getting changes that weren't saved to the old media saved. === tony_ [n=tony@ip56536fb6.direct-adsl.nl] has joined #kubuntu [10:23] dawn_: mount/umount require root (sudo).

I wanted to isntall something like you, a day ago but found that kicker works best [11:01] slyfox: !info sun-java5-bin dapper [11:01] then it is probably a SCSI drive, you have to find out what device node that is (/dev/sXXX), unmount it (you can do that from KDE) and sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sXXX [11:01] err wrong paste sorry [11:01] slyfox: http://www.kde.org/announcements/changelogs/changelog3_5_5to3_5_6.php [11:01] but be careful not to format the wrong drive [11:01] :) [11:01] that's what i found out last summer when I was looking for it [11:01] i thought maybe there are updates now [11:01] Zapt: what for ?

[11:09] slyfox: that means that Launchpad doesn't guarantee support for it. [11:09] working on installing it now [11:09] slyfox: sont know really, but it doesnt really matter [11:09] slyfox: in 96% of the cases not a problem :) [11:09] dima2001: so you personally will not update ?

[11:12] is it GNOME partition editor [11:12] slyfox: i would update [11:12] soulrider: are you on Ubuntu or Kubuntu ? === Flying_Eagle [n=md@p57A0E31C.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:12] but i dont think 3.5.6 is out =/ [11:12] kubuntu [11:12] I already managed to do an rm -rf /home/user/a_folder /* :) [11:12] soulrider: it is [11:12] CTRL-C was fast though *phew* [11:12] oh yes [11:12] soulrider: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-356.php [11:12] im reading in the kde page [11:12] soulrider, yep, actually it is [11:12] slyfox, well in gentoo it's hard masked so for the time being I would stick with what you already have === mirth [n=mirth@baobob.org] has joined #kubuntu [11:12] soulrider: it looks cool - bugs fixes [11:12] allright, im gonna update right now [11:13] im burning for feisty [11:13] yeah, I'm up to 10 hours of compiling :D [11:13] TheGateKeeper: hard masked? Sorry for my noobiness, but no idea what this is. Gentoo? I have Kubuntu... ? [11:13] gentoo should provide kde-binaries soon, though :) [11:13] am still on dapper and too lazy to upgrade to edgy before feisty is released [11:14] dima2001, I'm not running Gentoo [11:14] slyfox: gentoo is another distro [11:14] What do you guys think about PCLinuxOS ?

[11:15] slyfox: i believe the problem with gentoo is that they give you the source, and not a compiled copy like ubuntu, so you have to compile it youself... which takes time === magnus_ [n=magnus@cm-84.209.19.092.chello.no] has joined #kubuntu [11:15] slyfox, hard masked mean that the dev have masked in such a way that you have to go 'out of your way' to install it. most distro's have stable, testing (which I am running on gentoo) and development. Strickly speaking 3.5.6 is still in development [11:15] slyfox, yes you will, just maybe not for KDE stuff [11:16] which rarely gets security updates anyway === yukon [n=yukon@p5082309C.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has left #kubuntu ["#kubuntu"] [11:16] slyfox, where did you read this? that pclinuxos is no1? [11:16] Flying_Eagle: Distro Watch.com ? [11:17] slyfox, if a package is still in development, more likely to have bugs, more like to have 'show stopper' bugs [11:17] slyfox: don't worry, it is a message for enterprises. It just means that Canonical's support and guarantees don't apply to these packages. Most of the packages have an active maintainer and he makes sure that they stay up-to-date :) [11:17] HymnToLife: so stay with 3.5.5 ? [11:17] slyfox, that is what I would do [11:17] What program would I use to convert an xvid video clip to divx? [11:17] weedar, avidemux [11:17] hey, im totally new to linux, and i dont get my java complier to work, can someone help me [11:17] divx ftl. [11:18] slyfox: just update :P [11:18] HymnToLife: ftl?

[11:18] magnus_: install the package: sun-java5-jdk [11:18] you're gonna lose quality doing the transcode, but I guess you're stuck with it [11:19] i am slyfox, its downlaoding right now [11:19] in such a case, I'd rather get a new one than use divx [11:19] I'd use mencoder for the conversion, just to throw another one out there === ourweedone [i=gonejuh@gateway/tor/x-fe30e4d5bdf5a9e3] has joined #kubuntu [11:19] slyfox: nope, I just upgraded to feisty and it was enough of adventure today :) [11:19] HymnToLife: If I had the money to throw away, sure..but the dvd-recorder cost a bit :) [11:19] lol dima2001 [11:19] dima2001: ?! it is not even out ?! [11:19] haven't really played with avidemux [11:19] slyfox: it is, but its beta [11:19] herd-2 beta [11:19] dima2001: Feisty Kubuntu ? or ubuntu [11:19] you can install it but it might crash [11:19] kubuntu === lupine_85 is now known as _Adam_ [11:20] is everyone upgrading to 3.5.6 or is it considered not stable?

[11:23] slyfox, no for those updating is the reposutory complete, very often there's messages on reposutorys saying files still are yet to add [11:23] TheGateKeeper, bug fixes :p [11:23] magnus_: and what's the problem starting javac? is javac just an unavailable command?
