ubotuCompiz-Fusion (and the older Compiz and Beryl) are window managers that employ the "composite" extension of X to draw windows using graphics cards' 3D hardware. They can additionally provide "desktop special effects" (such as the "cube") by means of plug-ins. Join #compiz-fusion for help and support with advanced features.

savetheWorldAnyone here know the command to start a second X server up ?   it begins with "startx" but I cant recall the rest.00:05

ddelonyHow do I deactivate my proprietary video card driver/00:16
FaiDillinGergenii: thanks mate it worked ... but i got another problem now lol00:17
ddelonyNever mind, found the menu option.00:18
geniiFaiDillveinGer: Well, ask the channel and see who may know the solution :)00:18
FaiDillinGerwell my problem is that my wifi connection will not work for more than 5 minute (rt61 chipset). has anyone been experiencing the same problems ???00:18
FaiDillinGeri know this problem came after a driver or something was upgraded00:19
BluesKajddelony, to uninstall it properly, it depends how you installed it ,00:19
geniiFaiDillinGer: Actually I've been having the same problem but with a realtek 8187, no solution I've found yet. Using a pc card Atheros for the moment00:19
aharoondoes kubuntu 8.04 has proplems or i can use witout any fear00:20
BluesKajFaiDillinGer, low signal output , perhaps ?00:21
blizzzek-kde4gn800:21
geniiFaiDillinGer: What I know is NOT causing it: packet size differences between adapter/router/modem,  power savings settings on the adapter, whether wep/wap/open00:21
geniiwpa*00:21
BluesKajaharoon, nothing is totally without problems but I've heard that the latest RC is pretty stable.00:22
FaiDillinGerBluesKaj: i dont think so. the router is just 2 meters away, but i got my brothers computer with the same pci card, thats under windows and not experiencing this problem00:22
arcticpenguin380are there other journalling fs00:22
FaiDillinGergenii: its a wpa network00:22
BluesKajhmm ... ok00:22
geniiFaiDillinGer: The same disconnect was happening for me no matter what authentication the access point used00:23
FaiDillinGergenii: exactly, i tried wep but i have the same problem00:23
aharoonok i meant kubuntu 7.10 working fine to me but i think 8.04 has kde4 instead of kde3 so i wanted to use it but i afraid of face proplems of rc00:23
geniiFaiDillinGer: If the adapter uses the sky or sky2 driver it may be somehow part of the problem00:23
FaiDillinGersky ?? i have no clue what this is00:24
geniiFaiDillinGer: But as I said, I have not yet tracked down exactly the issue and have resorted for now to using another adapter00:24
FaiDillinGergenii: well i am also using a cable for the moment, but it is in the middle of my room and i know i will step on it and fall at some moment lol00:25
arcticpenguin380is kde4 meant to be adopted now?00:25
Dr_willisarcticpenguin380,  i dont think so. Its more of a developers - testbed00:26

soldanrHello Everybody! I have been struglin for the last 3 days with booting problems. Runing XP on SATA, Kubuntu on 20GB IDE Master and one 250MB IDE slave (added after installation). On the boot with GRUB I get the famous NTLDR missing, cause it is most likely trying to use the slave IDE instead of the SATA disk to find XP. I do thave the options of hd0, hd1, hd2 on grub but tried them all.00:26
soldanrDoes having Cable Select on the IDE causes that?00:28

vsudilovbut not transparency with any other windows01:03
vsudilovie, I can't read this irc chat while using the "transparent" konsole01:03
Dr_williscompiz can make anything transparent - to different levels. :)01:03

sethdeuryte, other than that you'll have to be more specific on what you mean by crashed desktop01:13
tekteendeuryte: the k window manager01:14
geniideuryte: There is no "master command line" something that will make everything magically fine again. The first thing to finding your solution is to have more information on how/why it crashed in the first place and then proceed from there01:14

deuryteseth: i went and changed a setting in the bios to start my sata in "raid" mode, all went well, but i decided to reset it back to "ide" mode, then it would only boot to a command line mode. no kde01:15
biovorevsudilov: I made a new menu entry (basicly copied the kconsole entry already there) and append the --real-transparency option.  Then I tie that menu entry to a short cut key (Ctrl-Shift-K here)01:15

sethif that doesn't get you in, let me know what /var/log/Xorg.0.log has to say01:21
BluesKajtoo late, my suggestion was going to be the default restricted driver in system settings/advanced01:22
BluesKajmost lower end radeons will benefit from the older default restricted driver01:23
sethBluesKaj, yeah, I just figured try the lowest denominator first and we can worry about bumping it up once he can get into kde01:24

NightBirdkubuntu 7.10 defaults to kde3.503:21
NickPrestaEko_Hermiyanto, do you want to use KDE 4.0.1? Personally, I would still have 3.5.8 around.03:21

NightBirdyou can set it up to be able to run kde4 as well03:22
hydrogenor mke2fs03:22
daoudi5hello03:22
NightBirdwhich should be that first link03:22
hydrogenext2fs has never been a command on any distro03:22
Manadthink you need 8.04 for kde4. But I'd recommend waiting, that's what all the sites say (even KDE themselves), it's very early in terms of features.03:22
Eko_HermiyantoNightBird: yes03:22
Eko_HermiyantoNickPresta: I love to get it03:22
Manadhydro: mke2fs /dev/sda5           ??03:22
NickPrestaManad, you can get KDE 4.0.1 in Gutsy (and it will be available by default in 8.04)03:22
* NightBird uses kde4 without problems03:22

CaptObviousmind you03:32
CaptObviousyou can mount a volume in any directory, right?03:32
CaptObviousso I could have a whole separate disk mounted in ~/downloads03:32
hydrogenyes03:33
CaptObviouslike windows can with NTFS03:33
NightBirdyou can make any file systems mount point be anywhere in linux...  like I have a 60 ext3 partition set up as my /home directory, while my / directory has 40 gigs to use elsewhere03:34
hydrogen mm03:35
hydrogenI have a -8.0 zetabyte drive for my /home03:35
Manadhydrogen, i have my new ext3 parttion ready, but Disks & Filesystems shows it as disabled. How do I enable it without restarting the computer? I set a mount point, so it's just a matter ofenabling.03:36
Manadthe GUI has no such option03:37
Manadexcept "enable at startup"03:37
NightBirdManad: try mount <directory it will mount too>03:37
NightBirdfrom a console03:37
CaptObviousmount /dev/hda1 /mnt/whatever03:38
hydrogenyou will need to be root03:38
hydrogenor use sudo03:38
NightBirdyeah... so if you're mounting the partition to the path /lol the command would be "sudo mount /lol"03:38
Manadallright, that worked! Thanks! :P03:38
NightBirdnp03:38
ManadI knew abount Mount but thought "enabled" would be a hardware thing unrelated to mount03:39
CaptObviousyou could put it in your fstab for the future03:39
NightBirdCaptObvious: I think that's pretty much what he did do with a gui03:40
Manadyeah03:40
NightBirdthough, if it provided a way to create it, I find it odd that it wouldn't also provide a mechanism to mount it now03:40
Manadyeah, it's not very intuitive03:41
Manadbut I guess the newbie user (ie me if you guys weren't helping me) would know that he can restart the pc to mount it03:42

bigdad1e!ftp server04:39
ubotuFTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP04:39

thesiegeanything joh6nn?04:40
DreadKnightbigdad1e: you are asking for a ftp-server :P04:40
biovoreFTP is sorta of a problem because its plain text..  try sftp  (winscp on windows)04:41
joh6nnthesiege: looking now04:41
bigdad1etrue04:41
biovoreshould work if you have ssh installed04:41
bigdad1ei installed proftp and gproftp doesnt seem to like me to much?04:41
Lthreethreeteejust use ssh04:42
unagiuse html\04:42
DreadKnightssh is cool xD04:42
bigdad1essh for ftp server?04:43
joh6nnthesiege: what drive are you trying to boot from?04:43
DreadKnight!ssh04:43
ubotuSSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/04:43
biovoreIs ssh is installed you can sftp into the box..  (passwords not in plain site that way, more secure)04:44
thesiegei would like to boot the windows drive hda104:44
bigdad1ewill people runing windows be able to access the files?04:44
biovoreif they have winscp installed.. yes04:44
ses59i installed a 32bit adobe reader and now it is messing up opening pdf files but i can not find a way to apt-get to uninstall it any suggestions on how to remove the bad program?04:44
bigdad1ei need something they wont need anything but an ftp client to connect to04:45
ses59i have a 64 bit kubuntu running04:45
joh6nnthesiege: which drive are you actively attempting to boot from?04:45
joh6nnbigdad1e: i strongly recommend forcing them to use an sftp client, rather than an ftp client.  or is that not an option?04:46
thesiegejoh6nn: im not sure i understand the question04:47
bigdad1eit is but im new to linux and i dont know how to install all of these programs04:47
thesiegei told my bios to boot from the internal HDD04:47
joh6nnthesiege: and that's the drive that windows is on?04:47
thesiegeyes04:47
bigdad1ejoh6nn: can you show me?04:47
Lthreethreetee!apt | bigdad1e04:49
ubotubigdad1e: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)04:49
joh6nnthesiege: i understand exactly what happened, but i don't know how to explain it.  basically, you've bitten off more than you can chew, and it's more than i can help you with at 10 till midnight, with work in the morning04:49
joh6nnwhat happens when you try to boot your windows CD?04:49
bigdad1ei know the basics of apt and aptitude sudo but configuring the ftp server is what i dont knwo what to do with04:49
albertolempirahey guys i have a dumb question... Can i have some desktop effects (like Compiz Fusion) on  KDE 4 ¿?04:50
thesiegeit says inspecting systems hardware and then nothing happens04:50
biovorealbertolempira: there built into kde404:50
draremhow can I copy my current kde session to a test one, dont want to mess up current one04:50
joh6nnbigdad1e: i'm gonna go to bed in a second, but if you hop into #ubuntu i'm sure someone there will be able to help04:50
biovorejust have to turn them on.. there not that fancy yet..04:50
thesiegedont worry, i can come back tomorrow, its not that important04:50

Vermyndaxlogin to my desktop05:09
Vermyndaxand it says there's a distribution upgrade... huh?05:10
VermyndaxI just installed the newest05:10
Vermyndaxand adept refuses to update packages05:10
Vermyndaxhmmm now that I've rebooted, X won't start05:11
Vermyndaxany idea why it would tell me there is a distribution upgrade and start loading the dist upgrade tool?05:12
_2and that's a fresh install....   i think i will wait and let "all" handle that one...05:12
Vermyndaxyeah it's a fresh install... totally bizarre05:12
Vermyndaxnow I'm in the command line doing an apt-get upgrade/update05:12
Daisuke_Laptopit tells you there's a distribution upgrade and loads the upgrade tool because adept is bugged.  it's now been bugged for four months.05:12
Vermyndaxso let's see what happens now05:12
Daisuke_Laptopand NOTHING has been done to resolve this.05:12
VermyndaxDaisuke_Laptop: wow... so, what's the method for updating then?05:12
Daisuke_Laptopgod i love kde05:12
Vermyndaxwow that really, really sucks05:13
VermyndaxI am in command line updating it now05:13
VermyndaxI was going to load KDE 4.0.1 just to see it anyway05:13

_2new session ? logout  drop to a console and run#  mv ~/.kde ~/.backup_kde    # log back in.05:20
_2is that what you mean ?05:20
draremyes, so it shows up in my session list and I can select it05:20

_2what i said will reset your kde session to defaults  but wont add an option that isn't already in kdm.05:22
Vermyndaxanyone else here using kde 4.0.1?05:22
_2i'm not even using X05:23
draremok05:23
_2drarem if it remember rightly, you can add an entry in /etc/X11/sessions/ something....   errr been to long.05:24

spartacusHi. Just a question re installing Kubuntu on an existing Ubuntu installation. The 4.0.1 news page says to install kde4-core, while FAQ says to install kubuntu-desktop. Should I read that to mean I need both?09:16
emilsedghspartacus: kubuntu-desktop will install kubuntu stuff which are KDE3 based09:17
emilsedghspartacus: if you want a complete kubuntu with stability, go with kubuntu-desktop, if you want to be on the edge of desktop technology and you dont mind losing a few features and a little bit of stability, go with kde4-core09:18
spartacusemilsedgh: OK, I don't mind bleeding edge stuff now and then. I should get a full KDE 4 desktop available in KDM after installing kde4-core?09:20
emilsedghspartacus: i think so, read the announcement, teaches how to install kde4 stuff09:20
llutzspartacus: you won't bcus most of the apps aren't ported to kde4 now09:21
spartacusemilsedgh: I have. I didn't  think it was clear that kde-desktop only installed 3.x, so wanted to check what was needed...09:22

Xbehaveif i dont install cpu freq controlling software is the laptop set to run in dynamic mode or will it be running full speed all the time15:58
SelanitTypically, my network stops functioning about 2-5 minutes after I boot.  I can get it to work again by running ifdown wlan0, rmmod rt61, and modprobe rt61.  But sometimes when I do that the whole system freezes.  I'm heartily sick of the whole stupid thing.  I wish my network would just freaking work.15:58
JoshOvkiXbehave it is set to dynamic. But if you click the batter icon you can set what it does when plugged in and unplugged15:58

hydrogenJuJuBee: mm.. kiosk mode may allow you that extra bit of configuration16:19
hydrogen!find kiosk16:19
ubotuFound: kiosktool, datakiosk16:19
hydrogen!info kiosktool16:19
ubotukiosktool (source: kiosktool): tool to configure the KDE kiosk framework. In component main, is optional. Version 1.0-1.1ubuntu5 (gutsy), package size 442 kB, installed size 1704 kB16:19
hansjdDaisuke_Ido: nope it is a x86 and a x86_6416:19
hansjdJoshOvki:  i have tried with dot also... same response16:19
BluesKajhansjd, i corrected the command , but I guess you didn't see that  sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run16:19
JuJuBeehydrogen : will that take over systemsettings? or should I lock that?16:20
hansjdBluesKaj:  i tried that too16:20
JoshOvkiok, hansjed   sudo chmod 777 ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run16:20
JoshOvkithen run the sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run again16:20
iboueach time i launch kontakt, i have korganizers alarm deamon which is launched too. I don't want it and do not find any option to avoid that. Is there one ?16:21
hansjdJoshOvki: thanks alot16:21
BluesKajhansjd, or you could get exe permission in properties by right clicking on the file16:21
hansjdit worked16:21
* BluesKaj forgets ppl don't check for permissions 16:22
* JoshOvki agrees with BluesKaj16:22
sigma_1234ibou: i also want to do that16:22
hansjdBluesKaj: i have only tried ubuntu before this... i didn't have to check that there :/16:23
BluesKajJoshOvki, what about chmod +x ...is that similar to chmod 777 ?16:23
BluesKajhansen, well, this is kubuntu ... if you want the pleasures of kde , then you need to learn a few things is all :)16:24
JoshOvkiBluesKaj, i think with  +x  it just gives all execute permissions, chmodding gives everyone read, write and execute16:24
BluesKajoops sorry hansen16:24
JuJuBeehydrogen : you use kiosktool?16:25
hydrogenJuJuBee: I do not16:25
JuJuBeeK16:25
JuJuBeeLooks like "root" must be enabled to use it.16:25
simion314hi, how can i determine my boot partition?16:25
BluesKajok, JoshOvki , I'm the only user so I don't worry much about others :)16:25
JoshOvkiBluesKaj: same here :) then why i use 77716:26
JoshOvki*thats16:26
BluesKajhansjd , if kubuntu is too difficult you can always install gnome desktop , if you wish16:26

SlimeyPeteJames__: do a "less /var/log/Xorg.0.log" to see the error log17:09
SlimeyPetemaybe that will give you a clue17:10

mkzI'm running kubuntu gutsy and OOo 2.3.0. I'm finding that occasionally when I launch scalc the window opens up in a full screen with no decoration to permit me to resize it.  It's not the same full screen as provided by ctrl-shft-J, as the menu and toolbars are visible, it's just missing the windowframe and title bar.17:20

savetheWorldhi guys- I have gotten used to using apt-get install xxx to install programs.  What do I do to use it to get sources?17:28
mkzif I'm not mistaken the source packages are usually appended with a -dev... so if you are using apt-get install xxx then you should see if there is an xxx-dev package and use apt-get for this as well...17:30
mkzsomeone correct me if I'm wrong17:30
savetheWorldthanks. I'll take a look17:30
savetheWorldmkz - well the sources I'm looking for are for bash.  But there is no -dev package for it.  I wonder if its part of the gnu-utils?17:32

Holdenhello, I guess this is a common problem but I can't get around it. I'm using Ubuntu and installed KDE. I have a USB external drive which GNOME automatically mounts with no problem. However in KDE it won't mount until I actually try to access it with dolphin. Also I had to uncheck "mount as user" to be able to mount it. I want it to mount automaically at startup, any ideas?20:41

virniknosrednaekim: cos I am using NVIDIA22:25

nosrednaekimvirnik: probably someting wrong with your script22:26
virnikmemoriesdies: just choose your arabic font, and tell mplayer, what is it's encoding22:27

Daisuke_Idoif i say what i would like, i would probably not be allowed in here anymore, so i'm going to go get a drink, pop some popcorn, and just watch22:38
virniknosrednaekim: damn... I want just one info22:38
nosrednaekimvirnik: interfere with WHAT?22:38
virnikcan u give me time to explain myself?22:38
nosrednaekimdo so in one complete message22:39
virniknosrednaekim: its hard when u bother only with "pure scripts" and Daisuke_Ido "it's not pure, u r on your own"22:39
nosrednaekimvirnik: just state your problem in one message if you want help.22:40
virnikwithout explaining22:40
virniknosrednaekim: I have posted it in one long message twice22:40
Daisuke_Idono, this is an official support channel, if you would like to use a customised script, it's recommended that you know what you're doing, because we dont.22:40
virnikno reaction22:40
virnikDaisuke_Ido: I am willing to use pure scripts, but they do not work22:40
virnikthat is the problem22:40
virnikwith nvidia driver from repo, it freezes on black screen. I can switch to X sometime, but mostly, it freezes.22:41
virnikkernel is alive, like network and sound too. only graphic card can't make it up. and that's your "pure" scripts22:42
Daisuke_Idoso instead of trying to fix it, you go to an unsupported solution, then come here when you need help with that.22:42
jpatrickvirnik: what does " pmi capabilities" give?22:42
holasomeone knows how to share pppoe between host and lient?22:42
virnikDaisuke_Ido: are u serious? i have spend more then eight hours on it22:42
virnikjpatrick: same22:42
virnikno change22:42
jpatrickto what?22:43
Daisuke_Idoah, and how was i supposed to know that?  i'm not a mind reader.22:43
virnikproblem is somewhere about warming up the card22:43
virnikevent with VBE restore false, it still cant make it through22:43
hydrogenDaisuke_Ido: stop trolling, if you can't be helpful its better to be quiet22:43
virnikDaisuke_Ido: true, u r not. but while I was explaining what i just tried, u blamed me for customizations22:43
virnikhydrogen: thx a lot22:44
neo22Damn. I can't get the ati drivers to stick. I go through this every time I upgrade.22:44
Daisuke_Idookay...  what video card22:44
neo22Ati 1900xtx.22:44
neo22It's saying mesa.22:44
Daisuke_Idonot you :)22:44
Daisuke_Idoi know nada about ati, sorry22:45
virnikDaisuke_Ido: Nvidia 7600 GO22:45
neo22oh :(22:45

virniknotebook version, made by ASUS22:45
virniklatest from oficial22:45
virnikbut latest from repo are the same22:45
virnikbut slower22:45
neo22fglrx22:45
virnikDaisuke_Ido: its ASUS F3T AP008, if it helps22:46
nosrednaekimneo22: from the ati website, or from the restricted-manager22:46
neo22restricted-manager22:46
virnikDaisuke_Ido: strange, that with other distros, this feature works fine. but I am with kubuntu too long, more then 4 years, so I do not want to switch distro22:47
neo22I added the bit about composite disable to my xorg.conf22:47
nosrednaekimneo22: ah.... do you have composite disabled in the xorg?22:47
nosrednaekimah..ok22:48
nosrednaekimdid you restart X after that?22:48
neo22I think so.22:48
neo22I'll restart it to be sure.22:48
virnikso, after 8 hours of work on this, trying almost everything, I just switched to custom scripts. and it works nice. except that annoying wakeup, where I have to wake it twice...because after first wakeup, computer normally wake, but goes to sleep again22:48
holasomeone knows how to share pppoe between host and lient?22:48
nosrednaekimwell, you do need to restart after installing the drivers22:48
virnikhola: just allow packet forwarding22:49

Agent_bobin all truth. many times i have seen people paste to the channel 8 or 10 lines,  and then other users post 30+ lines reproving them and instructing them what to do in the feuture...      doesn't make sense when the channel is slow.   only when it's busy.23:01

Agent_bobnosrednaekim never been mailed a ticket from an intersection camera eeh23:03

holait is host ip23:30
Agent_bobbigdad1e what i'm saying in essense is this.  you probably don't need to mess with your ip if it's working and you don't know anything about it.   and if you are trying to setup srcds and it is complaining about an ip then work on srcds not on the ip.23:30

hydrogen!scim | yao_ziyuan23:33
ubotuyao_ziyuan: Chinese, Japanese, Korean Language input. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SCIM23:33
yao_ziyuan1. skim should be abandoned23:33
Agent_bobbigdad1e well i'm going to go out on a limb and say that when you configure srcds propperly for your system it will stop complaining about unknown ips23:33
virnikhola: just change it23:33
virnikto be in the same subnet23:33
yao_ziyuanthose distros who support chinese input perfectly (ubuntu, fedora8) don't use skim at all (even for kde)23:33

Daisuke_Idobut...  what do they use?23:34
bigdad1ei did everything they way it was in the tutorial i did them on windows no problem but never on linux23:34
Daisuke_Idoyao_ziyuan: just for the record, scim is the default in ubuntu23:35
yao_ziyuanDaisuke_Ido: yes23:35
Agent_bobbigdad1e maybe google.com/linux   search for a howto setup srcds23:35
yao_ziyuanDaisuke_Ido: kubuntu should follow exactly the same steps that ubuntu installs chinese input functionality23:35
yao_ziyuanDaisuke_Ido: that way there will be a scim-gtk-frontend tray icon, even for kde23:36
Daisuke_Ido...huh?23:36
bigdad1ebeen doing them for 26 hours now. having been to bed yet reading and trying new things so i came here23:36
Daisuke_Idoscim is a the common input method, ot23:36
sam64_I was trying to make a disk for UbuntuStudio, but K3b wont recognise my disk23:36
Daisuke_Idoas far as i know, it's usable just fine in kde23:36
yao_ziyuanDaisuke_Ido: with kubuntu's current way of installing scim, it doesn't work23:37
yao_ziyuanDaisuke_Ido: kubuntu's current approach is to use "skim" as a middleman23:37
bigdad1eill do it all over again and see what it does.23:37
Daisuke_Ido...okay?23:37
yao_ziyuanDaisuke_Ido: and skim doesn't do the job at all23:37
=== solid_liquid is now known as solid_liq
Agent_bobyao_ziyuan "kubuntu should follow exactly the same steps that ubuntu installs chinese input functionality" <<< wrong.  one is gnome the other is kde  they should not follow the same methoods because they are different environments.   i realize that kubuntu is broken and you should file a bug and offer to help with the fix if you have some special insight on that issue.  but trolling this channel day after day about that will23:38
Agent_boband you don't want that23:38

hexchhello, how do I change premissions on hd so user can have root access to it alwaus ?23:39
Daisuke_Idoyao_ziyuan: so you sit back and wait, or you get the source and fix skim yourself23:39
hexchalways*23:39
yao_ziyuanDaisuke_Ido: my finding is that we should abandom skim and use the ubuntu/fedora way23:39
Agent_bobyao_ziyuan yes you should.  and you can update this channel but don't make a big deal out of something that most people can't do anything about anyway23:40
Daisuke_Idowhat *is* the fedora way23:40
Agent_bobyao_ziyuan they neither want to hear you complain about skim nor me compalin about timezone configurations.  both are in need of fixing.   but these guys aren't the ones to do it.23:41
Agent_bobnor me complain about kdm writing in /root   which i have done in the past...  ;/23:42
