| phoenixz | I want to run kontact, but it gives me this error: missing libkdeprint.so.5 | 00:07 |
| phoenixz | how can I install this library | 00:07 |
| phoenixz | ? | 00:07 |
| HTRedne1 | ? | 00:14 |
| genii | phoenixz: Maybe try: sudo apt-get remove --purge kdeprint; sudo apt-get install kdeprint | 00:18 |
| genii | hmm | 00:18 |
| theunixgeek | I'm getting a "hal-storage-removable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000" error upon trying to mount my flash drive. What should I do to fix this? | 00:18 |
| genii | !info kdeprint | 00:18 |
| ubotu | kdeprint (source: kdebase): print system for KDE. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu2.2 (gutsy), package size 1452 kB, installed size 2568 kB | 00:18 |
| Jucato | libkdeprint is from kdelibs.. but libkdeprint.so.5 is from kdelibs5 (KDE 4 kdelibs) | 00:19 |
| phoenixz | genii> trying, thanks! | 00:20 |
| genii | Jucato: Thats what I was trying to figure out | 00:21 |
| phoenixz | Jucato> genii> hhhhmmm... I just tried installing the new kde4pim (which by the way also doesnt work).. it also had a problem with the same package... Maybe its related? | 00:21 |
| phoenixz | genii> maybe a purge of the kde4pim and reinstall of kontact? | 00:22 |
| genii | phoenixz: Are you running kde4? | 00:22 |
| Jucato | not sure if kde4pim should be there, since kdepim wasn't released for KDE 4.0 | 00:22 |
| Jucato | !info kde4pim | hardy | 00:22 |
| ubotu | hardy: kde4pim (source: kde4pim): KDE PIM suit for KDE 4 testing. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.94.0-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 91917 kB, installed size 266876 kB | 00:22 |
| Jucato | yes, kde4pim is a pre-release (beta or alpha) version | 00:23 |
| phoenixz | genii> yep | 00:23 |
| Corty | hi | 00:23 |
| phoenixz | genii> actually using it as my "production" desktop even.. quite okay, with some glitches like these here and there | 00:23 |
| Jucato | phoenixz: do not install kde4pim, since that version was made *before* KDE 4.0 was released | 00:24 |
| camserver | how do you connect to a wired network via cli | 00:26 |
| camserver | nos | 00:26 |
| genii | Weird. The last update removed my kde4 | 00:26 |
| camserver | nosrednaekim: /j #ubuntu | 00:26 |
| camserver | sigh | 00:26 |
| camserver | im having an off day | 00:26 |
| phoenixz | Jucato> ahah, that might explain one thing or two.. but in that case, it may be a better idea to remove that package all together | 00:26 |
| camserver | nosrednaekim: how do i connect to a wired network via cli | 00:27 |
| nosrednaekim | camserver» why? | 00:27 |
| camserver | because my menu bar is gone an di have no way of conecting | 00:27 |
| Jucato | phoenixz: yes. keep using KDE3's Kontact in the mean time. KDE 4.1 will have kdepim again | 00:27 |
| camserver | i dont know the start string for wicd | 00:27 |
| camserver | and i dont have knetwork manager installed | 00:27 |
| phoenixz | genii> the last update had definately a load of dependancy problems.. I've seen multiple instances already where the update removed many packages (removed gnome, mplayer, dvdrip, k9copy, etc) | 00:28 |
| nosrednaekim | camserver» "sudo dhclient eth0" | 00:28 |
| phoenixz | Jucato> no way to use the new kde4pim before 4.1? | 00:28 |
| genii | phoenixz: I'm reinstalling kde4 now | 00:28 |
| Jucato | phoenixz: not that package from Kubuntu. no | 00:28 |
| Jucato | phoenixz: it's like this. for 4.0, kdepim doesn't exist | 00:28 |
| mrunagi | thank you nosrednaekim | 00:29 |
| nosrednaekim | mrunagi» for? | 00:29 |
| mrunagi | <----------camserver | 00:29 |
| nosrednaekim | mrunagi» ah :) | 00:29 |
| mrunagi | i just deleted my ~/.kde to try and get my menu bar back but it didnt work | 00:29 |
| mrunagi | any idea why it might have disappeared?/ | 00:29 |
| nosrednaekim | mrunagi» for kde3? | 00:29 |
| mrunagi | yes | 00:29 |
| Jucato | er... don't delete ~/.kde just to get one app's settings back | 00:30 |
| nosrednaekim | mrunagi» run "alt+f2"and enter "dcop kicker kicker restart" | 00:31 |
| Xbehave | compiz closes flash windows asoon as i click full screen on youtube is there an easy way to not apply animations to flash videos? or another way to fix this? only happens on compiz not in kwin | 00:31 |
| mrunagi | there it is | 00:31 |
| mrunagi | and there it went | 00:31 |
| mrunagi | =/ | 00:31 |
| Jucato | Xbehave: might want to ask in #compiz-fusion | 00:31 |
| nosrednaekim | mrunagi» do you have to set to autohide? | 00:31 |
| mrunagi | and there it is again | 00:31 |
| mrunagi | yes | 00:31 |
| nosrednaekim | mrunagi» you might want ot turn that off' | 00:31 |
| mrunagi | is it broken? | 00:32 |
| Jucato | no | 00:32 |
| Jucato | it's just set to auto hide, so it hides automatically | 00:32 |
| phoenixz | Jucato> okay, thanks for the info.. I'll remove the package | 00:32 |
| * mrunagi tries to hold in the sarcasm | 00:32 | |
| mrunagi | its so hard not to come back snide =) | 00:33 |
| Jucato | it's not broken. you can turn off autohiding | 00:33 |
| mrunagi | if autohide isnt broken i dont want it off | 00:33 |
| mrunagi | lemme rephrase..........i had it purposely set to autohide, but suddenly it didnt want to appear again when i put my mouse down | 00:34 |
| mrunagi | which is why i said it was gone, not hidden | 00:34 |
| mrunagi | odd | 00:34 |
| nosrednaekim | mrunagi» well, turn off autohide for now.... you may have auto hide set to raise the panel with a different event other than putting your mouse down there | 00:35 |
| Jucato | Alt+F2, "kcontrol", Desktop -> Panels -> Hiding tab, reset the settings for autohide | 00:35 |
| mrunagi | its working now | 00:36 |
| mrunagi | anyone want to help me with a gimp problem im experiencing? | 00:36 |
| genii | mrunagi: Try ctrl-f11 to bring it back, sometimes hitting alt-f4 hides it by mistake | 00:37 |
| Jucato | Ctrl+F11? | 00:38 |
| Jucato | oh gimp? | 00:38 |
| mrunagi | i dont understand why when i erase on a top layer i get white and not the next layer | 00:39 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, perhaps the ppl at #gimp can help | 00:46 |
| BluesKaj | ppl with long underscored nicks shoul be encouraged to be more creative ..personally i find it very annoying.Maybe I'm just being an old grump :P | 00:52 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: it's not like it's their fault | 00:53 |
| Jucato | it's a Konvi default setting for alternate nicks | 00:53 |
| BluesKaj | root____________ ? | 00:53 |
| Jucato | well that's an exception :) | 00:53 |
| * genii hires some punk with a long underscore name to leave a bag of flaming poo on BluesKaj's porch and ring the bell | 00:53 | |
| BluesKaj | gimme a break | 00:53 |
| * Jucato considers 2 underscores too long already | 00:53 | |
| genii | Well, yeah more than 3 is silly | 00:53 |
| BluesKaj | genii , yer 7mos too early for that :) | 00:54 |
| MrJoey | Why does my remastered Kubuntu (with modified squashfs contents) take so long to get past the "squashfs: version 3.2-UBUNTU..." screen? | 00:54 |

| Apple_Cat | root____ | 00:54 |
| MrJoey | on a real computer, it took about 30 seconds or something ridiculous like that | 00:55 |
| Daisuke_Ido | MrJoey: what are the specs of the pc you're running qemu on? | 00:58 |
| BluesKaj | Tv time with wifey, BBL | 00:59 |
| MrJoey | MrJoey: what are the specs of the pc you're running qemu on? ==> Circa 2002, 1GHz RAM, 1.7GHz Celeron, 128KB L2 cache. qemu has 128MB of RAM delegated to it. | 01:02 |
| MrJoey | and I'm only booting to single (i.e. not all the way to desktop) | 01:02 |
| MrJoey | It took about 10 minutes or so for qemu to get past the squashfs part, but it finally did | 01:03 |
| theunixgeek | I went to do an rm -rf /media/mountpoint but accidentally did rm -rf / media/mountmount :P | 01:03 |
| theunixgeek | good thing I backed up the day before! | 01:04 |
| MrJoey | lol | 01:04 |
| MrJoey | Maybe next time, do cd /media ; rm -rf mountpoint :) | 01:04 |
| MrJoey | oops, while going to press 'm', a magnitude 9 earthquake struck, causing me to hit / and enter :D | 01:05 |

| Apple_Cat | probably good practice to replace rm with ls then see what it's about to delete | 01:11 |
| === |john| is now known as Colonel_Panic | ||

| Tann | icanhasadmin: do you have any ideas? | 02:55 |
| Owner | What does it mean that it is supported for 18 months to five years? does that mean that if I want support i have to reinstall at those intervals? | 02:55 |
| Pici | Owner: The clock begins when the release comes out, not when you install it. | 02:56 |
| Owner | I understand that, I just mean to ask, does that mean that i have to reinstall to continue to have support? | 02:56 |
| icanhasadmin | Tell me that's not a real question Owner? | 02:57 |
| icanhasadmin | Tann: Honestly, no. you should be supported. does alsamixer work? | 02:57 |
| Owner | I just thought that 18 months was a bit short | 02:57 |

| Taggnostr | and what about the other question? | 06:37 |
| prince_jammys | i don't know the answer to that. my guess is yes, they are the same | 06:37 |
| prince_jammys | they tell you the permissions and owner of the directory, and how many files it contains, etc. | 06:38 |
| prince_jammys | so i assume it doesn't matter what file-manager you use | 06:38 |
| Taggnostr | it depends of the os, isn't it? | 06:38 |
| prince_jammys | the os? | 06:38 |
| prince_jammys | well yeah, windows will tell you something different. windows doesn't even use the same kind of permissions | 06:39 |
| Taggnostr | I mean, the information displayed on kubuntu are given by kubuntu itself, not by the file manager you are using | 06:40 |

| surgy | stdin: i think its actually the windows side thats messinbg up | 06:48 |
| surgy | stdin: seams to work with a single file but when i try to move a folder it gets mad | 06:48 |
| stdin | surgy: if it's a windows problem, then ##windows is the place you ask | 06:49 |
| Taggnostr | uhm | 06:58 |
| Taggnostr | is there some other command to see the size of a folder? | 07:00 |
| prince_jammys | stat *maybe* | 07:01 |
| Taggnostr | let's see | 07:01 |
| prince_jammys | maybe not | 07:01 |
| prince_jammys | :) | 07:01 |
| Taggnostr | it just say 4096 | 07:02 |
| prince_jammys | yeah stat is for files. i don't know, you can check man stat | 07:02 |
| Taggnostr | ok | 07:02 |
| Gide0n | hi chanel I need help, somebody familiar with routing tables | 07:02 |
| Gide0n | I have only one shot at this via ssh, and I was hoping somebody could help me with the command line and parameters I need | 07:03 |
| Taggnostr | prince_jammys, I can't see nothing useful | 07:03 |
| prince_jammys | yeah, stat is for files. what's wrong with du? | 07:04 |
| Taggnostr | I tried with another folder of 15208663 bytes, du says 17M, right-click->properties says 14.5 MB (instead than MiB) | 07:05 |
| Taggnostr | I used du -H that is supposed to use the SI prefixes, but 17M seems plain wrong | 07:08 |
| Taggnostr | actually the apparent size seen by du is 15196758, just a few kilobyte less than the size seen by dolphin or konqueror | 07:09 |

| === keith__ is now known as compilerwriter | ||
| compilerwriter | Gents I seem to have done something some time ago and have only now learned what I did. It seems that I have somehow set my desktop to extend beyond the edges of my monitor screen. How do I get my desktops to only be the expanse of my screen again? | 07:28 |
| stdin | sounds like a resolution issue, you set the resolution to something the monitor/graphics card can't handle. try lowering it | 07:30 |
| ibilic | i have no icons on my desktop, and when I right click on it, no menu appears | 07:30 |
| Taggnostr | prince_jammys, try dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1MB count=10 and dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1MiB count=10 | 07:30 |
| Taggnostr | it copies the right number of bytes but when you use MiB it show 10MB | 07:31 |
| Taggnostr | ok, that is right, 10MiB are 10.486 MB, 10 MB rounded | 07:32 |
| Taggnostr | du instead returns strange values | 07:32 |

| sgrover | night time? is that why it's so dead here ??? :) | 08:06 |
| jussi01 | sgrover: yeah | 08:08 |
| jussi01 | 8 am in the uk, night in the us | 08:08 |
| apparle | hi | 08:09 |
| sgrover | 1;13 am here... | 08:13 |
| apparle | sgrover: Whay are you telling that | 08:14 |
| sgrover | apparle: left over from previous posts.. :) | 08:15 |
| sgrover | not important | 08:15 |
| dwidmann | O.O 3:15 and I'm still awake? ..... that's not good, that's not good at all. | 08:15 |
| dwidmann | Seems my motivation for stayinng awake is gone though ..... a relatively simple to use sshfs setup for sharing certain files betwixt my computers ...... 'twas a piece of work .... | 08:17 |
| sgrover | dwidmann: ssh and keys combined with rsync didn't do the trick?? :) | 08:18 |
| dwidmann | sgrover - ssh and keys and sshfs did the trick | 08:18 |
| dwidmann | getting it such that it was read only was why it was a piece of work. | 08:19 |
| sgrover | guess if you needed to mount the remote resources... makes sense... | 08:19 |
| sgrover | ahhh | 08:19 |
| sgrover | I'm trying something similar but with NFS. Not sure how to set up the permissions right... lots of digging via Google right now. | 08:19 |
| dwidmann | new user, new group, moved the files to the new home directory, new keys for each guest (blank passphrases), chmod 750 all the dirs, chmod 640 all the files, make the files belong to my real user, but the others group (which I happen to be a member of) .... add my keys to the auth file of the new user, and finally, figure out a good fstab line :) | 08:22 |
| dwidmann | Almost more effort than it was worth, if I had to do that all the time I wouldn't be too happy. | 08:22 |
| apparle | All those who are having problems with ALSA may give atry to OSS. I am telling because I successfully solved the final problem with OSS | 08:29 |
| dwidmann | apparle: mixing? | 08:31 |
| sgrover | OSS is supposed to be deprecated isn't it? | 08:31 |
| dwidmann | sgrover: deprecated in the kernel though it doesn't seem to be inferior, I hear it has uppoints | 08:31 |
| apparle | dwidmann: what do you mean mixing | 08:32 |
| dwidmann | You said you solved the final problem .... the only problem I ever had with oss was getting it to play multiple sounds at the same time. | 08:33 |
| apparle | dwidmann: I didn't have that problem ever | 08:34 |
| dwidmann | Interesting | 08:34 |
| apparle | dwidmann: Many softwares like audacity kmix didn't run. And I got how to run them,(obviously I didn't solve it. Just found it) | 08:35 |
| apparle | bye | 08:41 |

| enry | does anybody know how to safely remove hardware link floppy drives or pci cards? | 08:58 |
| storbeck | It helps if you turn the power off first, then use a screw driver | 08:59 |
| enry | :D | 09:00 |
| enry | i mean in software side | 09:00 |
| stond | DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO MOVE FILES AND EXUCTABLE TO ROOT FOLDER SUCH AS /USR/LOCAL/BIN/ | 09:00 |
| enry | what does it happen if i remove hardware and then i power on with modified configuration? | 09:00 |
| enry | can I break something? | 09:01 |
| Jucato | !caps | stond | 09:01 |
| stond | sorry | 09:01 |
| jussi01 | enry: unlikely. afaik | 09:01 |
| enry | ? | 09:01 |
| enry | stond | 09:01 |
| enry | use sudo | 09:02 |
| jussi01 | unliikely you will break stuff. i have done that regularly | 09:02 |
| stond | well can anybody tell me how to move files to my root folders it keeps telling me acess denied | 09:02 |
| enry | so you say that if I remove a floppy drive or a pci card and i power on | 09:02 |
| enry | it does not give any problems? | 09:02 |
| enry | stond | 09:02 |
| enry | you can use sudo | 09:02 |
| stond | what envy | 09:03 |
| enry | sudo mv | 09:03 |
| prince_jammys | stond: sudo mv myfile /usr/local/bin | 09:03 |
| enry | or you can also | 09:03 |
| jussi01 | stond: go to a terminal, type: kdesudo konqueror | 09:03 |
| enry | sudo konqueror | 09:03 |
| enry | or your file browser | 09:03 |
| jussi01 | enry: ahah...no. | 09:03 |
| jussi01 | kdesudo for graphical apps | 09:03 |
| prince_jammys | kdesudo for GUI | 09:03 |
| prince_jammys | jinx | 09:03 |
| Jucato | actually better just use "kdesu" so that it works whether or not kdesudo is installed :) | 09:04 |
| enry | sudo konqueror works | 09:04 |
| enry | jussi01 "no" stands for NO problems? :) | 09:04 |
| enry | or for | 09:04 |
| stond | ok I think i got | 09:04 |
| enry | YES problems? | 09:04 |
| prince_jammys | if the bot were here, he would tell you the problem | 09:04 |
| jussi01 | enry: just because it "works" doesnt mean its good. | 09:04 |
| enry | :) | 09:05 |
| Jucato | you're lucky ubotu's not here | 09:05 |
| prince_jammys | the problem is it doesn't work properly | 09:05 |
| enry | and | 09:05 |
| enry | how do you do that? | 09:05 |
| jussi01 | enry: it can seriously break stuff | 09:05 |
| Jucato | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo | 09:05 |
| enry | what is the procedure to remove hardware then? | 09:05 |
| jussi01 | enry: turn off, remove hw, turn on. | 09:06 |
| enry | yeah it is what i was sqaying | 09:06 |
| stond | I am trying to install NETHOSTFS and USBHOSTFS and I cant get the executables moved to /usr/local/bin/ does anybody know how to do this | 09:06 |
| jussi01 | enry: I was refering to the sudo thing about the serious breakage | 09:06 |
| enry | obvously I don't remove while it's on! | 09:07 |
| Jucato | enry: we were taking about sudo konqueror | 09:07 |
| enry | okok | 09:07 |
| enry | but for example if there is a floppy drive, at the boot it tryes to mount it, if i remove the drive what happens? | 09:08 |
| prince_jammys | nothing bad | 09:08 |
| prince_jammys | i've done that many times | 09:08 |
| enry | and with a pci device? | 09:08 |
| prince_jammys | same | 09:08 |
| enry | and if i plug another device in the same slot | 09:09 |
| prince_jammys | i can't guarantee it, but i've never broken anything that way and i've messed a whole lot with hardware | 09:09 |
| prince_jammys | enry: that's ok too | 09:09 |
| enry | mmm | 09:09 |
| enry | because i've heard about problems | 09:09 |
| prince_jammys | i have 6 computers and i juggle the hardware constantly | 09:09 |
| enry | :D | 09:10 |

| storbeck | prince_jammys: Wow, you don't ever drop them? | 09:10 |
| prince_jammys | drives. sound cards, video cards, ram, floppy... | 09:10 |
| enry | i had a problem simply by monitor substitution :D | 09:10 |
| prince_jammys | no, i work in a circus | 09:10 |
| prince_jammys | i do it in a cage with tigers | 09:11 |
| prince_jammys | and the hardware still doesnt break | 09:11 |
| storbeck | Wow, impressive | 09:11 |
| enry | it doesn't recognize the right resolution | 09:11 |
| enry | i need to press | 09:11 |
| enry | alt+e at the beginning | 09:11 |
| prince_jammys | enry: well you may have configuration problems, but you can always revert to the old setup | 09:11 |
| storbeck | I wish my resolution went higher >.< | 09:12 |
| enry | login screen has the wrong resolution | 09:12 |
| enry | don't know why | 09:12 |
| enry | i wish to have it at 1440X900 | 09:12 |
| enry | but it doesn't work | 09:12 |
| jussi01 | enry: what is it at to start withP? | 09:13 |
| storbeck | enry, Does your video card support it? | 09:13 |
| enry | yes, because | 09:13 |
| enry | after login | 09:14 |
| enry | it works fine | 09:14 |
| enry | but everytime i have to press alt+e at the login screen | 09:14 |
| prince_jammys | oh, only the login screen | 09:14 |
| enry | yeah | 09:14 |
| storbeck | enry, That's why I don't use a gdm :D | 09:14 |
| enry | if I don't press alt+e sometimes, only sometimes, it loads wrong resolution | 09:14 |
| prince_jammys | i use gdm. i thought he used kdm | 09:15 |
| enry | kdm | 09:15 |
| storbeck | Well, gdm/kdm. | 09:15 |
| storbeck | cli login for me :D | 09:15 |

| pushax | hi all. Is there a program that resets all your permissions and attributes of the default files? | 09:55 |
| prince_jammys | pushax: to my knowledge, no | 10:01 |
| prince_jammys | pushax: what happened? | 10:01 |
| prince_jammys | major permission mess? | 10:01 |
| pushax | prince_jammys: hi pj. the other xp sp3 did something to my /home drive on its own hd. I had copy the files to another drive and then rebuild that drive. I also had to do a grub kernel recover. now my sound wont load, nor HDTV | 10:03 |
| prince_jammys | pushax: so the permissions problem is just in your /home? | 10:04 |
| pushax | I installed kubuntu onto a old computer and did a #ls -laR > dir.txt and then compared it to my machine now. I noticed in /dev dir most all the ownership were root:root not root:devtype | 10:05 |
| pushax | prince_jammys: I've done alot of checking but I'm worried I missed something or maybe a file has been set wrong internal due to the mess. | 10:06 |
| prince_jammys | on most of mine they are root:root | 10:06 |
| prince_jammys | brw-rw---- 1 root floppy 2, 0 2008-03-01 18:07 fd0 | 10:06 |
| pushax | prince_jammys: I have Intel HD audio and I modprobe it but it wont stay after reboot. | 10:06 |
| prince_jammys | pushax: post this in #ubuntu. this channel is too thin right now | 10:07 |
| pushax | k | 10:08 |
| pushax | prince_jammys: I've notice my changes didn't take effect. I beleive. let me do more research | 10:09 |
| pushax | prince_jammys: is linux like windows in that it recovered changed system files? | 10:09 |
| prince_jammys | pushax: i don't think so, but i have no experience in this department | 10:10 |

| Sinnerman | what package do i have to install to get amarok to play mp3 files? | 10:14 |
| Jucato | libxine1-ffmpeg | 10:14 |
| Jucato | or just install kubuntu-restricted-extras to get a whole bunch of codecs and plugins | 10:15 |
| Jucato | (java and flash) | 10:15 |
| storbeck | Sinnerman> amarok should be able to play mp3s without any other packages | 10:15 |
| Sinnerman | storbeck hmm... it's asking me to allow it to get mp3 support though. and i've manually installed all the packages off the ubuntu-restricted-extras package too. | 10:16 |
| storbeck | Have you tried install win32codecs? | 10:17 |
| max_ | I need to use criticalSection in KDevelop, what is the include file or library to lock some part of my code? | 10:17 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| Sinnerman | storbeck umm, no, it's a clean install of ubuntu, last time i did that, i don't remember installing anything win32 to get mp3s to work with amarok. | 10:18 |
| storbeck | Well, I've also never had to install additional packages to play mp3s in amarok | 10:19 |
| stdin | Sinnerman: try libxine1-ffmpeg or kubuntu-restricted-extras | 10:19 |
| Sinnerman | stdin thanks. let me have a look. | 10:19 |
| Sinnerman | stdin that did the trick. thanks. :) | 10:21 |
| stdin | Sinnerman: amarok should install libxine1-ffmpeg automatically when you try to play an mp3, but it sometimes just fails so a manual install is required | 10:22 |
| kgx | does anyone where kde 3.5 saves the keyboard shortcuts? i thought it was .kde/share/config/khotjeys* but that doesnt seem to be it | 10:22 |
| Sinnerman | stdin i was looking for the name of the package too, for future reference. thanks. | 10:23 |
| pushax | is there an easy way to load and remove modules from the kernel? | 10:27 |
| SlimeyPete | pushax: investigate insmod, lsmod, rmmod and modprobe (they're not *easy* but they're not usually that complicated) | 10:28 |
| pushax | SlimeyPete: thx. I've already used modprobe . do you know of a graphical one? | 10:29 |
| SlimeyPete | no, sorry | 10:29 |
| Apple_Cat | why do you want a graphical one ? | 10:35 |

| ActionParsnip | VelcroMan_, did you md5 check the disk? | 11:26 |
| VelcroMan_ | no | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | VelcroMan_, ok not a good start, If you disable stuff in your bios it may help but you may have a defective image | 11:27 |
| VelcroMan_ | Disable what? | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | VelcroMan_, you may need to turn cerain functionality off in your BIOS to get it installed then enable it later | 11:28 |
| VelcroMan_ | What kind of functionality? What stuff? | 11:29 |
| Riddell | Saied: 4.0.2 hasn't been announced yet, you can /msg sebas and ask if he has a time planned if you want | 11:29 |

| KR-data | how do I make Firefox go back in history when pressing backspace (like you would expect) in stead of making a page up replacement (wtf. is that even good for?) | 12:17 |
| DOOM_NX | where can i find the difference between Kubuntu CD and DVD version? | 12:23 |
| Dragnslcr | The DVD has more packages on it | 12:26 |
| Dragnslcr | All of the packages on the DVD are in the repositories, so you can always download them if you install from the CD | 12:27 |
| ForgeAus | hey all is the style of dolphin location bar like that's like Mautilus and Thundar called breadcrumbs?? | 12:29 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: yes. but Dolphin's has an additional feature the others don't have | 12:30 |
| DOOM_NX | thanks | 12:30 |
| ForgeAus | :) Jucato | 12:30 |
| ForgeAus | just one? | 12:31 |
| Jucato | at least one that I know :) | 12:31 |
| ForgeAus | hehe so you keep me in suspense? I've used dolphin before a few times | 12:31 |
| Jucato | if you click on an arrow or click and hold on a name/location button, you get a drop-down of its "sibling" directories | 12:32 |
| ForgeAus | ahh well the qt-address-bar XP drop-in replacement does that too | 12:32 |
| * Jucato thinks Vista incorporated a similar feature | 12:32 | |
| ForgeAus | yes... basically the same thing | 12:32 |
| Jucato | we're talking about Linux though :) | 12:32 |
| ForgeAus | yeah kewl :) | 12:33 |
| Jucato | neither Nautilus nor Thunar has that | 12:33 |
| Jucato | (and it's Thunar, not Thundar :P) | 12:33 |
| ForgeAus | yeah well Thor Thunder Thunar Donar, its a little confusing sometimes:) | 12:33 |
| Jucato | heh I only know Thunar. I lost track of Xfce a long time ago :) | 12:34 |
| ForgeAus | I don't use XFCE much so I rarely care about it | 12:34 |
| ForgeAus | it wasn't too bad in I think it was either zenwalk or wolvix that was using it... but I prefer KDE | 12:34 |
| Jucato | yeah. Xfce's not bad at all for a lightweight DE :) | 12:34 |
| ForgeAus | it feels alot like a Gnome-Lite | 12:34 |
| ForgeAus | I think I'd choose Fluxbox over XFCE for lightweight | 12:35 |
| Jucato | Fluxbox isn't a DE :P | 12:35 |
| Jucato | anyway... | 12:35 |
| ForgeAus | oh ok | 12:36 |
| DOOM_NX | isn't it? | 12:36 |
| Jucato | Fluxbox is a Window Manager | 12:36 |
| DOOM_NX | oh i see | 12:37 |
| DOOM_NX | just like metacity? | 12:37 |
| Jucato | yes. except that metacity is closely tied to GNOME (a Desktop Environment) | 12:38 |
| Jucato | just as KWin is tied to KDE | 12:38 |
| DOOM_NX | ooooh i see :D | 12:38 |
| DOOM_NX | thanks a lot | 12:38 |
| ForgeAus | so what desktop does fluxbuntu use? | 12:39 |
| ForgeAus | I know it uses fluxbox WM, but I'm confused what desktop it uses | 12:39 |
| Jucato | it doesn't use a DE afaik. just fluxbox plus a whole heap of applications | 12:39 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato I'm not sure I understand | 12:40 |
| SlimeyPete | part of the point of something like fluxbox is thatyou don't use a DE with it | 12:40 |
| ForgeAus | so what its a Desktop replacement? | 12:40 |
| blujay | So, 4.0.2 is out already. :) | 12:40 |
| Jucato | note that I used the term "DE" or "Desktop Environment", which *has* (usually) a Window Manager and provides an integrated system | 12:40 |
| SlimeyPete | ForgeAus: it has none. | 12:40 |
| Jucato | Desktop replacement? | 12:40 |
| ForgeAus | I know fluxbox is a wm but when you boot up into a fluxbox environment you don't have a desktop?... | 12:41 |
| SlimeyPete | indeed. | 12:41 |
| SlimeyPete | just a toolbar. | 12:41 |
| ForgeAus | yeah and a menu | 12:41 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah. | 12:41 |
| Jucato | the main difference between a Window Manager and a Desktop Environment is the level of integration it provides. a DE, such as GNOME and KDE, provide stuff like interpocess communication, embedded components, a default set of base applications, etc | 12:41 |
| storbeck | Fluxbuntu uses Rox | 12:42 |
| ForgeAus | its fairly simple and feels professional/simple | 12:42 |
| ForgeAus | Rox as in Oborox ? | 12:42 |
| storbeck | No, Rox as in Rox | 12:42 |
| SlimeyPete | Rox-filer etc. | 12:42 |
| ForgeAus | (which btw is an "evolution" of sorts of RiscOS's desktop) | 12:42 |
| Jucato | well you have a "desktop" in the sense of you have a desktop/background, panels, etc | 12:42 |
| storbeck | http://roscidus.com/desktop/ | 12:42 |
| ForgeAus | OboroX is Rox's WM tho isn't it? | 12:42 |
| SlimeyPete | I used to run Fluxbox (without Rox) - it was very nice. | 12:42 |
| SlimeyPete | I can't really give a decent reason why I don't use it now tbh. | 12:43 |
| SlimeyPete | I just kinda stopped. | 12:43 |
| storbeck | I use Fluxbuntu | 12:43 |
| ForgeAus | hmm thats interesting a script to convert XML <-> TeX lol | 12:44 |
| SlimeyPete | there's not really much point in running a full DE like KDE or GNOME if you don't need an integrated file manager or desktop. | 12:44 |
| ForgeAus | (ie Changes TeX-like tags (abc{...}) to XML-like tags (<abc>...</abc>). hehe) | 12:44 |
| Jucato | SlimeyPete: it's not just an integrated "file manager", but yes on the "integrated desktop" | 12:44 |
| SlimeyPete | Jucato: yeah... actually now I'm thinking of it I rarely use apps in combination with each other and I don't use graphical file managers or a desktop (I run everything full-screen)... maybe I should just run fluxbox/openbox/wmii with a bunch of KDE apps. | 12:46 |
| * SlimeyPete ponders | 12:46 | |
| Jucato | to each his own :) | 12:46 |
| * Jucato uses KDE *because* of the integration :) | 12:47 | |
| ForgeAus | sporry I said oborox apparantly its OroboROX | 12:47 |
| ForgeAus | Under X, you can choose to run any window manager with any desktop. Many of the screenshots show the xfwm4 or OroboROX window managers in a more-or-less default configuration. | 12:47 |
| SlimeyPete | well, indeed. I appreciate that many people find the integration stuff useful... I'm just not sure that it's much use to me. | 12:47 |
| ForgeAus | so Fluxbox uses ROX + Fluxbox? instead of xfwm4 or OroboROX ? | 12:47 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: sure you can. that's what makes it possible to use Compiz in GNOME and KDE | 12:47 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: I think storbeck said "Fluxbuntu uses ROX" | 12:48 |
| SlimeyPete | ForgeAus: you can run fluxbox over the top of KDE (instead of KWin) if you want to, but I'm not sure why one would want to do that. Perhaps because Fluxbox allows you to group windows together. | 12:48 |
| DexterF | ok who gan gimme a hand with writing a video dvd with k3b? I told it "new video dvd", dragged the VOBs into the VIDEO_TS folder and burnt. disc won't work. | 12:49 |
| DexterF | can mount it but kaffeine or smplayer don't recognize it as a video dvd | 12:49 |
| SlimeyPete | DexterF: should be fine, assuming the VOBs are unencrypted. | 12:50 |
| DexterF | SlimeyPete: they are | 12:50 |
| SlimeyPete | you normally need an IFO or something too though | 12:50 |
| ForgeAus | SlimyPete do you mean that would be Kwin + fluxbox istead of running Kicker (or kickstart or whatever kde4's is called?) | 12:50 |
| SlimeyPete | ForgeAus: it'd be fluxbox instead of KWin (so... the KDE desktop but with Fluxbox handling the window management and decoration) | 12:51 |
| DexterF | SlimeyPete: all there. copied the disc to disk with DVDshrink in windows, smplayer plays it alright when I tell it to open the folder. | 12:51 |
| storbeck | You can't use Fluxbox with KDE | 12:51 |
| SlimeyPete | not sure if Kicker would work. It might. If not you could no doubt use fluxbox's bar | 12:51 |
| storbeck | That's like saying you can use Gnome on KDE | 12:51 |
| SlimeyPete | storbeck: oh... why not? | 12:51 |
| SlimeyPete | works with GNOME | 12:51 |
| Jucato | storbeck: yes you can | 12:51 |
| storbeck | How so? | 12:52 |
| SlimeyPete | storbeck: it's nothing like that ;p | 12:52 |
| SlimeyPete | Fluxbox is a WM, not a DE | 12:52 |
| SlimeyPete | like KWin. | 12:52 |
| Jucato | storbeck: fluxbox is *not* like GNOME. it is *not* a Desktop Environment | 12:52 |
| Jucato | fluxbox is like metacity (GNOME) or kwin (KDE) | 12:52 |
| DexterF | storbeck: deep in kde's guts you can tell it to use another win man than kwin. why someone would wanna do this is beyond me tho :) | 12:52 |
| storbeck | I'd like to see a screenshot of that... | 12:52 |
| ForgeAus | me too | 12:52 |
| DexterF | me not :D | 12:53 |
| storbeck | I'll believe it when I see it. | 12:53 |
| SlimeyPete | storbeck: http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://octopi.files.wordpress.com/2007/05/snapshot1.png&imgrefurl=http://octopi.wordpress.com/2007/05/12/gentoo-secret-sauce-apple-macbook-pro-g4-667/&h=854&w=1280&sz=134&hl=en&start=4&sig2=R8gsY7VvTmau4YE3lxyeag&um=1&tbnid=lK2QagD5JZkgpM:&tbnh=100&tbnw=150&ei=xZfOR9yWMoOkeLLhtQY&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dkde%2Bwith%2Bfluxbox%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN | 12:53 |
| SlimeyPete | ick, that's a nasty url ;) | 12:54 |
| Jucato | jere | 12:54 |
| Jucato | here's one too: http://www.ubuntux.org/kubuntu-with-fluxbox | 12:54 |
| ForgeAus | nice and short URL there :) | 12:54 |
| Jucato | storbeck: if you can't use fluxbox (which is a window manager) with KDE, it's like saying you can't use compiz/beryl with KDE | 12:54 |
| storbeck | SlimeyPete: How is that fluxbox? | 12:54 |
| SlimeyPete | storbeck: notice the window decorations. | 12:55 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato what part of that screenshot makes it KDE? | 12:55 |
| SlimeyPete | it's running fluxbox as the window manager | 12:55 |
| derjens | hello everybody | 12:55 |
| storbeck | These days I will replace KDE with Fluxbox and testing some alternative compilers like D/Digitlmars an stuff. | 12:55 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: that's the tricky part about using a different window manager for GNOME or KDE | 12:55 |
| storbeck | That's in the website. | 12:56 |
| ForgeAus | hehe Jucato I agree, its confusing | 12:56 |
| storbeck | I don't think he's running fluxbox on KDE. | 12:56 |
| ForgeAus | I can certainly see the fluxbox there | 12:56 |
| SlimeyPete | storbeck: look, just try it. It works fine, I can assure you. It's a bit pointless but it works. | 12:56 |
| derjens | here are two students... i've been using linux for some years but i am not familiar with ubuntu | 12:56 |
| derjens | i should help this guy with his external harddisk | 12:57 |
| ForgeAus | but nothing about that shows me that it's running on KDE (rather than Kubuntu)... | 12:57 |
| storbeck | Eh, I'd rather not install KDE. :] I'm really not that worried about it | 12:57 |
| derjens | there are some vfat partitions which are mounted automatically, but all the NTFS cannot be accessed via Dolphin | 12:57 |
| Jucato | you see, the problem is that you are just looking for "visual cues" to whether he's using KDE or fluxbox.. you're just looking for things like a panel or window decorations, without taking into consideration the processes that are running benath | 12:57 |
| derjens | it's kubuntu 7.1 he just said | 12:57 |
| derjens | is this kubuntu version capable of auto mounting ntfs partitions? | 12:58 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato partly yes, but I was looking more for how KDE blended (or perhaps how it doesn't blend) with fluxbox | 12:58 |
| derjens | read-only access is suitable | 12:58 |
| Jucato | I need to compile fluxbox just to prove a point? hm... | 12:58 |
| ForgeAus | you keep making a distinction between the desktop and the window manager... | 12:58 |
| Jucato | yes. because a desktop environment does *more* than just provide window borders (which is what you're trying to look for in a screenshot) | 12:59 |
| derjens | why does HAL not mount a NTFS saying it "refuses uid 1000"? | 12:59 |
| blujay | That screenshot is using a kwin window decoration. | 12:59 |
| Jucato | derjens: I don't think Kubuntu 7.10 is able to automount NTFS just yet, but ntfs-3g is installed by default | 12:59 |
| Jucato | blujay: yeah. quartz | 13:00 |
| derjens | Jucato, well, we can mount ntfs as root -- it works obviously... why does it not work with auto mount? | 13:00 |
| Jucato | !ntfs-3g | 13:00 |
| ubot5 | ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 13:00 |
| Jucato | sorry I'm not familiar with mounting NTFS | 13:00 |
| derjens | dolphin tries to mount the device but HAL refuses to do so | 13:00 |
| DexterF | derjens: I had to tinker with fstab settigns but finally got it working, ill paste you the line, moment | 13:01 |
| DexterF | derjens: /dev/hda5 /media/e ntfs-3g users,gid=users,umask=0002,silent,utf8,locale=de_DE.utf8 0 0 | 13:02 |
| derjens | DexterF, does this fstab solution work with ANY device plugged in? | 13:02 |
| DexterF | derjens: oh, you mean like a usb disk? | 13:02 |
| derjens | this is all about usb harddisks | 13:02 |
| derjens | DexterF, yes | 13:03 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato Fluxbox does more than just provide window borders | 13:03 |
| Jucato | http://developer.kde.org/~seli/kdewm/ btw | 13:03 |
| DexterF | hmm. ok, you'd have to pass users/gid somehow... good question. possibly you have to mess wiht the udev rules or remount manually. | 13:03 |
| stond | can someone please tell me how to remove and delete root folders | 13:04 |
| Jucato | stond: that depends. normally you shouldn't. which folders are you asking about | 13:04 |
| Jucato | (they are not owned by you for a reason) | 13:04 |
| DexterF | stond: you mean like / ? you dont wanna delete that | 13:04 |
| DexterF | derjens: have a look here, guess you can do that stunt in kubuntu, too: http://de.opensuse.org/NTFS | 13:06 |
| Jucato | http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ lists "KDE support" as one of the features. :) | 13:06 |
| DexterF | (scroll down to the section about external disks) | 13:06 |
| ForgeAus | yeah well according to the previous page you sent me to Enlightenment has KDE support too | 13:06 |
| stond | i have created two folder in ?usr/local/bin called nethostfs and usbhostfs and i put an executable file in each one plus I moved a couple of other executable there and I want to remove them and dont know how using a terminal | 13:07 |
| Jucato | yeah. and E is a schizophrenic WM :) | 13:07 |
| ForgeAus | it only has partial Gnome Support tho | 13:07 |
| ForgeAus | lol I agree Jucato | 13:07 |
| ForgeAus | You can see KDE dockets, on the Fluxbox slit. Also WindowMaker dockets work well. | 13:07 |
| ForgeAus | what exactly is a kde docket? | 13:09 |
| derjens | i just tried to change the permissions of the mount point | 13:09 |
| derjens | chown USERNAME /media/harddisk_xyz | 13:09 |
| derjens | there was no error message but the owner did not change | 13:09 |
| derjens | i have already done such things on the distros | 13:10 |
| derjens | why does it not work for this NTFS partition? | 13:10 |
| ForgeAus | shouldn't it be docklet? | 13:10 |
| llutz | derjens: because it is a non-unix-filesystem which won't work with unix-permissions. permissions have to be set by mount-options | 13:11 |
| derjens | i tried to change the owner of other mount points in order to give special permissions to some user, but there was the error "permission denied" | 13:11 |
| DexterF | derjens: actually you override the perms with gid/users and linux then won't care about perms. | 13:11 |
| llutz | derjens: read documentation for ntfs/ntfs-3g | 13:11 |
| derjens | llutz, what do you mean by setting permissions per mount point? this is what i tried to do, in my point of view | 13:12 |
| llutz | derjens: nope, i meant mount-options not changing them by chmod/chown | 13:12 |
| stond | hey I want to delete all the stuff I added to /usr/local/bin/ can anybody tell me how to do it using Terminal | 13:12 |
| llutz | derjens: "man mount" | 13:12 |
| stond | hey I want to delete all the stuff I added to /usr/local/bin/ can anybody tell me how to do it using Terminal | 13:13 |
| ForgeAus | btw Jucato why do you need to compile fluxbox, can't you just apt-get it? | 13:14 |
| stond | hey I want to delete all the stuff I added to /usr/local/bin/ can anybody tell me how to do it using Terminal | 13:15 |
| ForgeAus | erm stond be careful there | 13:15 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: I'm not on Kubuntu right now. hold on is storbeck still around? | 13:16 |
| ForgeAus | if you know the name(s) of the files simply use rm <filename> | 13:16 |
| llutz | stond: "all"? find /usr/local -type f -exec rm {} \; | 13:16 |
| ForgeAus | of course from /usr/local/bin you may need sudo | 13:17 |
| ForgeAus | oh and because its a directory (I just backread) you'd find it easier using rm -rd | 13:17 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: screenshot coming soon | 13:17 |
| stond | llutz i just want to delete folders and files I installed to /usr/local/bin/ | 13:18 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato, some portage-based distro? | 13:18 |
| Jucato | source based, but not portage-based | 13:18 |
| llutz | stond the walk through the dirs and delete by hand (cd, rm, ls, or better mc will help) | 13:18 |
| storbeck | Jucato: Do you need me? | 13:19 |
| Jucato | in a while. | 13:19 |
| storbeck | Okay, it might take a bit to respond. I'm watching Saved by the Bell :) | 13:19 |
| ForgeAus | hmm that rules out Gentoo | 13:20 |
| Jucato | storbeck, ForgeAus, SlimeyPete: http://jucato.org/stuff/kde-flux.png KDE using fluxbox as WM (ugly, needed to do it quick). notice kicker (KDE panel) and the flux panel running at the same time | 13:21 |
| stond | llutz what do you mean I am a noobie at all this could you please expllain what you mean and what is (cd, rm, ls) and what is mc | 13:21 |
| ForgeAus | wow that looks nice Jucato :) | 13:22 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm the is the K-menu a docklet? | 13:23 |
| Jucato | I did it hackingly though... killed kwin, started flux... | 13:23 |
| Jucato | no, it's just kicker with lots of icons ;) | 13:23 |
| ForgeAus | hehe hmmm well it seems to have worked nicely enough | 13:23 |
| storbeck | Heh Jucato, you didn't really need to do that. I didn't really care all that much | 13:23 |
| ForgeAus | I wasn't talking about your screenshot | 13:23 |
| ForgeAus | in fact your kicker looks more like an OSX dock (or kooldock or something) | 13:24 |
| storbeck | Looks like kxdocker | 13:24 |
| ForgeAus | yeah something like that | 13:24 |
| Jucato | that's what I meant. it's just kicker with icons :) | 13:24 |
| ForgeAus | (kooldock is similar) | 13:24 |
| Jucato | no fancy stuff | 13:24 |
| llutz | stond use google to find some howtos/tutorial on linux shell-cmd basics. | 13:24 |
| Jucato | brb. gonna try something again :) | 13:24 |
| ForgeAus | yeah anyway Jucato I was asking about if Kmenu is a docklet? | 13:24 |
| ForgeAus | because you could add it to your fluxbox slit that way :) | 13:24 |
| ForgeAus | (since flux supposedly has kde docklet support) | 13:25 |
| ForgeAus | (also the WindowMaker dock-bar) | 13:25 |
| ForgeAus | wouldn't a K-menu make the fluxbox slit more useful? | 13:26 |
| ForgeAus | that and probably a shutdown and/or trash icon hehe | 13:27 |
| Jucato | haha! KDEWM works as advertised! :) | 13:27 |
| Jucato | no need to kill kwin and start fluxbox manually. :D | 13:27 |
| Jucato | actually I don't know much about flux :) | 13:27 |
| Jucato | 2nd time I tried to use it. but if you do run KDE+Fluxbox, you sort of dont' get the right-click menu of flux | 13:27 |
| Jucato | ah yes.. kdesktop is the "killer" | 13:27 |
| Jucato | if kdesktop is running, you get the KDE "desktop" (wallpaper, icons, right-click menus) | 13:28 |
| Jucato | kill it to get flux's (as long as fluxbox is running) | 13:28 |
| ForgeAus | I still think your screenshot looked nice :) | 13:28 |
| Jucato | :D | 13:28 |
| ForgeAus | (you could probably set up your mouse buttons so you get a middleclick menu for one and a rightclick menu for the other | 13:29 |
| ForgeAus | (whichever wm you prefer for which) | 13:29 |
| Jucato | you can do that in KDE | 13:29 |
| === eth01` is now known as eth01 | ||
| Jucato | Configure Desktop -> Behavior -> Mouse Button Actions | 13:29 |
| ForgeAus | yeah switch ur kde rightclick menu to middleclick and fluxbox will probably do ur rightclick? | 13:29 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato I've done it before :) | 13:30 |
| ForgeAus | well not the flux thing | 13:30 |
| ForgeAus | but the mouse buttons I've messed with | 13:30 |
| Jucato | :) | 13:30 |
| ForgeAus | (added a middleclick menu from memory) | 13:30 |
| ForgeAus | what I should have done is added an Mac-menu switch to it somehow.. (so I can use the middle button to toggle kde's top-screen menu like Macintosh has) | 13:31 |
| ForgeAus | not that I prefer to use my PC that way | 13:31 |
| ForgeAus | many OSX themes use that + Baghira | 13:31 |
| Jucato | lots of stuff you can do :) | 13:32 |
| ForgeAus | me personally I'd add more functional components to that "menu" | 13:32 |

| storbeck | LOL @ swiftfox's about:config | 14:18 |
| storbeck | "This might void your warranty!" | 14:18 |
| KR-data | SlimeyPete, thanks, do you know why that ridiculous setting has been made? | 14:20 |
| SlimeyPete | no idea | 14:20 |
| SlimeyPete | it is a bit silly. | 14:20 |
| KR-data | I agree, and I hate it, because it's annoying | 14:21 |
| KR-data | SlimeyPete, browser.backspace_action should be set to 0 ^^ | 14:23 |
| joseph | lately, firefox seems to crash when any video is played, regardless of file type. is anyone else having this problem? | 14:27 |
| storbeck | joseph: flash videos? | 14:27 |
| joseph | flash and mpeg | 14:28 |
| joseph | anything that plays in the browser | 14:28 |
| storbeck | I've never had it crash on an mpeg, but I managed to reduce the crashes a lot by using swiftfox | 14:28 |
| storbeck | (on flash movies) | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | joseph, try renaming your ~/.firefox folder | 14:28 |
| el-gokulo | no crash. here now, since ive updated the nvidia driver | 14:29 |
| joseph | ActionParsnip: i don't have a .firefox folder. i do have a .mozilla folder, though | 14:29 |
| jhutchins_wk | None here on several boxes, but I don't do a lot of video. | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | joseph, that'll do it | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | joseph, if it doesnt make a difference, rename it back] | 14:29 |
| joseph | k | 14:30 |
| joseph | yeah, it doesn't make any difference; firefox still freezes when playing video. | 14:31 |
| jhutchins_wk | joseph: ram/videocard/cpu? | 14:31 |
| joseph | jhutchins: everything worked fine before a couple days ago | 14:32 |
| Agent_bob | anyone that might be able to help me figure out why i can't ssh into a particular box as root ? | 14:32 |
| joseph | nothing has changed | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip | joseph, ok then rename it back and relaunch your firefox | 14:33 |
| joseph | has flash been updated lately? | 14:33 |
| llutz | Agent_bob: because it's configured with "no rootlogin"? | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Agent_bob, dont ssh as root, ssh as user and sudo if you need admin power | 14:33 |
| Agent_bob | ActionParsnip so can you help me figure out why it's not working or not ? | 14:34 |
| ActionParsnip | see what llutz sid | 14:34 |
| Agent_bob | llutz not it. checked that. | 14:34 |
| ActionParsnip | *said | 14:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Agent_bob, i'd strongly suggest against it | 14:34 |
| joseph | Agent_bob: so can you ssh as a normal user? | 14:34 |
| Agent_bob | joseph yes | 14:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Agent_bob, I've never done it myself, let me google | 14:35 |
| llutz | Agent_bob: check "PermitRootLogin" in sshd_config | 14:35 |
| Agent_bob | ActionParsnip it's ok. no need searching. i do this all the time, and only one of 7 boxes is giving trouble. | 14:36 |
| joseph | so you ssh in as a regular user and then use sudo to execute root commands. unless the ssh box is on your local network behind a firewall, it's just not a good idea to ssh in as root. | 14:36 |
| Agent_bob | llutz i said i checked that | 14:36 |
| llutz | Agent_bob: if it is set to "yes" check server-logs for reason | 14:36 |
| Agent_bob | joseph can't su/sudo | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Agent_bob, what is the message when you try to ssh? | 14:36 |
| joseph | Agent_bob: if you can't sudo, then you probably shouldn't be using root to begin with. i'd check to see if your normal user is in the sudo conf files in /etc | 14:37 |
| Agent_bob | ActionParsnip says Permission denied, please try again. | 14:37 |
| Agent_bob | root@192.168.0.6's password: | 14:37 |
| Agent_bob | Permission denied (publickey,password). | 14:37 |
| Agent_bob | joseph :) sudo doesn't work on "nosuid" systems. | 14:38 |
| joseph | Agent_bob: ok, my mistake. | 14:38 |
| Agent_bob | err not unless you are already root. | 14:38 |
| joseph | you should probably run ssh with -v options to get more info on why you can't log in | 14:38 |
| Agent_bob | i'm not seeing any ssh log ..... | 14:39 |
| Agent_bob | what's the normal log file for ssh ? | 14:39 |
| Agent_bob | sshd ^ | 14:39 |
| llutz | auth.log, syslog | 14:40 |
| joseph | yeah, but you can do like ssh -vvv and you'll get good logging info in standard output | 14:40 |
| Agent_bob | hah. got a syslog but i can't access it cause i'm not root | 14:40 |
| llutz | Agent_bob: also "su" won't work? | 14:41 |
| joseph | su cat /var/log/auth.log | 14:42 |
| Xbehave | sometimes my keyboard locks up entirely and even my sysrq keys fail but my mouse still works fine, ive even restarted x but it didnt help | 14:46 |

| ForgeAus | I mean they're cute but it leads to bot-abuse | 15:03 |
| sebastianito | ya | 15:04 |
| ForgeAus | lol and for those that don't know Yum is a package manager that Suse (and perhaps some other distro's) use | 15:04 |
| sebastianito | how can i lock my desktop in kde4? i get an error message | 15:06 |
| Jucato | s/Suse/Red Hat and Fedora/ | 15:06 |
| Jucato | Suse doesn't use yum. it uses libzypp | 15:06 |
| ForgeAus | isn't Yast a frontend for Yum? | 15:07 |
| Jucato | no | 15:07 |
| ForgeAus | I'm certain Suse uses yast | 15:07 |
| Jucato | YaST is not *just* a package manager. part of it has a package manager (yast2 iirc) | 15:07 |
| * ForgeAus shrugs | 15:08 | |
| dthacker-work | Suse does use yast, but it is more than a package manager | 15:08 |
| dthacker-work | Jucato is too fast. :) | 15:08 |
| ForgeAus | what else is it? | 15:08 |
| rjune_ | yast is a frontend to rpm | 15:08 |
| dthacker-work | Equivalent of Systems-Settings | 15:08 |
| rjune_ | is a configuration tool | 15:08 |
| Jucato | YaST = "Yet another Setup Tool" | 15:08 |
| ForgeAus | ok fine | 15:08 |
| rjune_ | and yes, suse can use yum. | 15:08 |
| rjune_ | both zypp and yum use rpm, so both will work. | 15:09 |
| ForgeAus | mandrake uses rpmdrake right? | 15:09 |
| ForgeAus | oops mandriva | 15:09 |
| trappist | mandrake uses urpmi | 15:09 |
| trappist | right, mandriva :) | 15:09 |
| ForgeAus | I still think of it as mandrake lol | 15:09 |
| Jucato | hm.. I don't think yast can use yum. just because both libzypp and yum use rpm. | 15:10 |
| Jucato | aaanyway... | 15:10 |
| ForgeAus | although taht was long ago, mandriva = Mandrake + connectiva but then Lycoris got absorbed into the mix too | 15:10 |
| trappist | I think yast is suse, and suse is rpm | 15:10 |
| * dthacker-work reaches in his pocket for a yellow card offtopic | 15:10 | |
| ForgeAus | lol | 15:11 |
| joseph | they should disable the botsnack feature. everyone complains when you use it. | 15:13 |
| ForgeAus | joseph I wasn't trying to complain... | 15:13 |
| joseph | ForgeAus: your point is well-taken, though | 15:13 |
| joseph | there's no utility in that command | 15:13 |

| Agent_bob | it was the shell variable if anyone ever runs into that same error message again. | 15:54 |
| Agent_bob | or should i say $SHELL | 15:55 |
| Agent_bob | i don't understand why local login works and remote doesn't, but that's how it turns out. | 15:55 |
| * jpatrick never does: ssh root@.. | 15:56 | |
| joseph | ok, so i decided to use fetchmail to do google imap | 15:57 |
| joseph | however, when i check mail with kmail, nothing comes up | 15:58 |
| joseph | even though mailx says i have mail | 15:58 |
| jpatrick | joseph: have you set up kmail to use IMAP from your Gmail? | 15:58 |
| Agent_bob | jpatrick ummm hmm but with "nosuid" systems the only powwable way to remote admin is an ssh root shell | 15:59 |
| jpatrick | Agent_bob: I just use sudo, or su :) | 15:59 |
| joseph | jpatrick: no, i set up kmail to read from the local mail spool | 15:59 |
| Agent_bob | not on a nosuid system you don't | 15:59 |
| joseph | /var/mail/joseph | 15:59 |
| jpatrick | joseph: ah ok, no idea then | 15:59 |
| joseph | thanks | 15:59 |

| joseph | francism: why? | 16:02 |
| === xRaich[o12x is now known as xRaich[o]2x | ||
| Agent_bob | there is no such thing as using su/sudo on a nosuid system or should i say only root can do that. so in essence it can't be done. @ jpatrick | 16:03 |
| jpatrick | Agent_bob: I read it :) | 16:03 |
| joseph | after running fetchmail when i check mail using kmail, it says "Transmission failed. Could not lock /var/mail/joseph" | 16:03 |
| joseph | fixed it | 16:05 |
| joseph | had the wrong locking method specified | 16:05 |
| Agent_bob | jpatrick therefore if sshd is only listening on the dmz and root login is with sshkeys only it makes it pretty hard to admin if ssh root@192.168.*.* stops working. or doesn't work. | 16:06 |

| Agent_bob | what dir does sshd actually "listen in" ? anyone know ? | 16:15 |
| Agent_bob | sentinel freedom from what ? | 16:15 |
| Agent_bob | sentinel wireless is "your neibour using your connection without your permission" in most places/cases | 16:16 |

| SlimeyPete | Agent_bob: sshd listens on a port, not a directory... | 16:17 |

| Agent_bob | SlimeyPete i didn't say on or to but in. everything is running some place | 16:18 |
| Agent_bob | SlimeyPete and sshd is not listening in / cause bin/sh would work as a shell if it was. neither is it in root's home cause bin/sh would work if it were | 16:18 |
| SlimeyPete | Agent_bob: oh, you mean the working directory. | 16:19 |
| Agent_bob | $PWD | 16:19 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah, that. I'd've guessed / too, *shrug*. Doesn't /bin/sh work? | 16:20 |
| Agent_bob | SlimeyPete /bin/sh does but bin/sh does not | 16:20 |
| Agent_bob | and root's shell is set to bin/sh on that box. | 16:21 |

| NickPresta | yao_ziyuan, are you absolutely sure ktorrent doesn't fully support unicode filenames? Have you asked on the Ktorrent forums? | 16:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it supports unicode fine -_- | 16:48 |
| yao_ziyuan | NickPresta: i used ktorrent to download some torrents which contain chinese filenames | 16:48 |
| NickPresta | Daisuke_Ido, I thought so too. | 16:48 |
| yao_ziyuan | they're displayed as boxes and can't be opened by ktorrent (must manually open in a file browser) | 16:49 |
| yao_ziyuan | i'm in english locale | 16:49 |
| yao_ziyuan | maybe this is the problem | 16:49 |
| NickPresta | yao_ziyuan, can you give me an example of such a torrent? | 16:49 |
| yao_ziyuan | s/problem/cause | 16:49 |
| yao_ziyuan | but i'm sure the official bt client can do well | 16:49 |
| Daisuke_Ido | link please! | 16:49 |
| yao_ziyuan | NickPresta: are you fbi? | 16:49 |
| NickPresta | yao_ziyuan, if you can't provide me with a torrent that isn't illegal to post here, then don't post it :) | 16:50 |
| Daisuke_Ido | the official bittorent client is a non-adjustable bandwidth hog - making that the default would be an extremely poor decision on the ubuntu team's part. | 16:50 |
| yao_ziyuan | ok | 16:50 |
| jhutchins_wk | yao_ziyuan: What client you use is entirely up to you. | 16:50 |
| yao_ziyuan | i'll give you a way to find a chinese torrent file: | 16:51 |
| jhutchins_wk | azureus is pretty popular. | 16:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | google: btchina | 16:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | and click into the first result | 16:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | it is a torrent search engine in china | 16:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | just enter a movie name in english | 16:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | it should give you a list of results. click any of them, you get a torrent file | 16:51 |
| jhutchins_wk | yao_ziyuan: Really, no need to prove that ktorrent can be broken - it's the kde component, using the kde shared libraries, so it's the default on a kde desktop. | 16:52 |
| jhutchins_wk | yao_ziyuan: How about say a Live CD torrent? | 16:52 |
| jhutchins_wk | yao_ziyuan: Is the issue handling chinese characters in names? | 16:52 |
| yao_ziyuan | the torrent must specify files and/or folders that contain chinese characters | 16:52 |
| yao_ziyuan | jhutchins yes | 16:53 |
| yao_ziyuan | jhutchins_wk: yes | 16:53 |

| nosrednaekim | wth is that character NickPresta? | 16:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | chinese | 16:56 |
| NickPresta | nosrednaekim, the first chinese character I could find on wikipedia under 'chinese character' lol | 16:56 |
| yao_ziyuan | NickPresta: then it failed. because there can't be a folder named with just one character | 16:56 |
| bikerpeter | hello | 16:56 |
| nosrednaekim | NickPresta: hahah | 16:56 |
| NickPresta | yao_ziyuan, what do you mean you can't have a folder name with just one character. sure you can. | 16:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | well, | 16:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | my case is: | 16:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | i got folder names like: | 16:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | bbs.wofei.net@??????¿?????????????? | 16:58 |
| yao_ziyuan | bbs.wofei.net@ħ����Ե | 16:58 |
| yao_ziyuan | bbs.wofei.net@?????????? | 16:58 |
| yao_ziyuan | got it? | 16:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | then you should really install the correct language support, huh? | 16:58 |
| NickPresta | yao_ziyuan, I would say that is a language support issue. I can display unicode characters just fine in my terminal and anywhere else I please (Including chracters like é) | 16:59 |
| ryanakca | yao_ziyuan: If you file a bug report, you have a greater chance of having the "problem" fixed. | 17:00 |
| yao_ziyuan | i "filed" one to #kubuntu-devel :) | 17:00 |
| ryanakca | yao_ziyuan: it'll get lost. It should be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu instead, that way we can keep track of it and monitor its progress. | 17:01 |
| yao_ziyuan | i'm not that enthusiastic about filing bugs, although i filed many | 17:02 |
| yao_ziyuan | but this one isn't a very important one | 17:02 |

| re-align | Vermux, Dunno then, perhaps restart ffox. | 18:19 |
| Arwen | uh huh.. because if it's my house I don't have the right to do as I want with it? | 18:19 |
| NickPresta | Guys, relax. Both options have been presented to the person asking the question. He can either install it into /opt and be careful, although he may experience unforeseen problems, or he can wait for it to hit a repo. No need to argue over this... | 18:19 |
| Vermux | re-align: ok, thanks | 18:20 |
| Vermux | will do that | 18:20 |
| hydrogen | so are you by your wonderful logic arwen, another (equally viable) option would be to respond "Install windows xp and download it and run it there" | 18:20 |
| hydrogen | you didn't tell him that, omg u r hidin ze options | 18:20 |
| Arwen | yes it would, and depending on the situation, that may or may not be a viable answer | 18:20 |
| Arwen | and I would indeed recommend Windows if it were a *logical* solution to a problem | 18:20 |
| hydrogen | the point of this channel is not to give a huge array of possible solutions, but to provide the best solution | 18:21 |
| Arwen | who are you to decide what's the "best"? | 18:21 |
| Arwen | !best | 18:21 |
| ubotu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, join #ubuntu-bots and ask there. | 18:21 |
| flaccid_ | no such thing as a 'best' solution | 18:21 |
| hydrogen | there is such thing as a better solution | 18:22 |
| flaccid_ | i mean for a stable OS, ubuntu is not the best decision, thats a fact | 18:22 |
| Arwen | anyway, we're scrolling the channel far too much, I'd be glad to debate elsewhere | 18:22 |
| flaccid_ | a suitable solution is probably a better term | 18:22 |
| stdin | uh, the arguing should stop now | 18:22 |
| flaccid_ | 'best practice' comes to mind here... | 18:23 |

| flaccid_ | rami: if you have a soundcard then that shouldn't be a problem if your sound scheme is enabled in system settings | 18:32 |
| rami | it isnt in notifications. | 18:33 |
| rami | so i cant change. | 18:33 |
| stdin | so you've looked at the Even Source "The KDE Window Manager" settings? | 18:34 |
| flaccid_ | a chime is usually a wave file played through the sound card. so pc speaker won't chime. | 18:34 |

| stond | the programs are cisoplus and usbhostfs | 18:36 |
| rami | and stdin, i dont really know what youre saying means in swedish, could you please simplify? | 18:36 |
| flaccid_ | rami: if its doing pc speaker on minimise and your soundcard driver is loaded then im not sure what could be the problem, but muting pc speaker in kmix can certainly help | 18:36 |

| adz21c | sammy: not to my knowledge | 19:30 |

I reboot, and voila, they're back! but the virtual line isn't there. I end up with an automatic 1600x1200 virtual desktop on top of the 1200x1024 mode I put first in my screen section | 19:32 |

| zimon | heath: it's device drivers -> sound .. not audio | 21:54 |
| deflex_ | zimon, where can i configure kmilo? I have it installed but i can't find anything to configure | 21:54 |
| Tetracomm | Step by step. | 21:54 |
| Tetracomm | I typed Xephyr :1 in the first window. | 21:54 |
| Tetracomm | It opened the X window. | 21:55 |
| Tetracomm | Then I opened another terminal and typed DISPLAY=:1 xterm | 21:55 |
| Tetracomm | Is that right? | 21:55 |
| zimon | deflex_: i don't know how to configure it ... but it should work out of the box .. at least for the most common keys like volume, play, mute, pause etc | 21:55 |
| heath | zimon: there was an intel hd audio, but it was not checked when I configure this kernel... is there a way to patch or do I have to make a new | 21:56 |
| === revgreendave is now known as cuznt | ||
| zimon | heath: i think you have to rebuild the whole kernel, as a single ubuntu-package is built during the make-kpkg process .. but i'm not sure | 21:58 |
| Tetracomm | stdin? | 21:58 |
| heath | zimon: i think you are right... here goes nothing... good thing the cpu is quad core | 21:59 |
| zimon | heath: also, you need drivers for your soundblaster, if you want to use it | 21:59 |
| mikademus_ | Hi folks. Be kind to a newbie, please. Are there any upgrade packages (or similar) for Kubuntu to kernel v 2.6.24.x? | 22:00 |
| stdin | Tetracomm: sorry, I have to go away for a while, family stuff. I'm sure someone else here or in #kde can help | 22:00 |
| heath | zimon: I'm pretty sure that card will not be supported... it is VERY new and only half way supported in Windows | 22:00 |
| zimon | heath: ok :-) | 22:00 |
| zimon | mikademus_: no | 22:01 |
| mikademus_ | zimon, ok, that was a concise answer :p So, is it problematic to upgrade the kernel? | 22:03 |
| zimon | mikademus_: that depends on how well you know your hardware | 22:04 |
| Daisuke_Ido | mikademus_: if you want to move to the next stable kernel release (ie. 2.6.24), you'll want to wait for hardy, as that is the default kernel there. | 22:04 |
| Daisuke_Ido | unless, as zimon says, you *really* know what you're doing | 22:04 |
| zimon | heath: if you want make to use all of your cores, run "export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=5" before starting the build process | 22:05 |
| heath | zimon: cool... do you normally have to run make modules_install as a superuser | 22:07 |
| zimon | heath: with the ubuntu way you create a .deb that's installed with dpkg -i ... that will install the kernel image and the modules | 22:07 |
| zimon | heath: i.e., you don't run modules_install at all | 22:08 |
| Tetracomm | Ok. | 22:11 |
| Tetracomm | :( | 22:11 |
| Tetracomm | stdin: Do you think that uninstalling both KDEs will help? | 22:11 |
| mikademus_ | SOrry for delay, Sinefelt (sp?) was on. Well, I know my hardware pretty well. I build a kernel (my first ever) a couple of days ago, and it worked. But it wasn`t very stable though and the boot was slow due to issues | 22:12 |
| zimon | mikademus_: it wasn't stable but it worked? :-) | 22:13 |
| mikademus_ | hehe, yeah, define "working", i know I know... :p But give me a break, it was my second day ever on Linux | 22:14 |
| mikademus_ | and the OS ran | 22:14 |
| nosrednaekim | mikademus_: thats pretty amazin ;) | 22:15 |
| ryanakca | mikademus_: most people don't build a kernel... ever | 22:15 |
| zimon | mikademus_: well, i think no one has ever managed to build a working kernel on the first attempt .. | 22:15 |
| zimon | mikademus_: do you still have the config that you created? | 22:16 |
| ryanakca | well, other than those who are kernel developpers, the really geeky ones... and the insane ones :) | 22:16 |
| mikademus_ | You know, I have no idea what so ever if you are ironic right now... I live in this perhaps incredibly naive conception where the Linux kingdom is populated bu Ents with magic in their fingers | 22:16 |
| mikademus_ | Ehrm, well, no, that was about three different distros since. Thank the not Divine Gygax for rewritable DVDs | 22:17 |
| mikademus_ | But basically, I downloaded the 2.6.25-3 source, ran ./configuire I think, make install, answered a boatload of questions about my hardware, spend five hours scuouring the net, then spent five hours learning about mkinitrd or whatever it is called... | 22:18 |
| mikademus_ | but I had great fun! | 22:18 |
| mikademus_ | 2.6.24-3 | 22:18 |
| zimon | mikademus_: ah .. ok. there are several howtos on compiling a kernel for ubuntu using make-kpkg, and the latest 2.6.24 is very stable .. so have fun | 22:18 |
| zimon | mikademus_: but other than all those howtos i don't recommend using the ubuntu config as a start, cause what's the point in building a custom generic kernel? | 22:19 |
| mikademus_ | zimon, well, for me, the only reason is really because 2.6.24.x is the first that has built-in support for my MS Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000, the best keybaord ever made, even though it is a MS product. | 22:20 |
| zimon | mikademus_: why does it need a driver? | 22:22 |
| mikademus_ | It has a non-standard (jap) layout, with additional meta keys, and bracket keys in unorthodox places | 22:23 |
| mikademus_ | Hmm, re-reading the comments above, I realise you were serious? That it is uncommon to build your own kernels, and that it is difficult to get them to work at all? | 22:26 |
| nosrednaekim | mikademus_: yeah :) | 22:27 |
| nosrednaekim | mikademus_: at least for new users | 22:27 |
| zimon | mikademus_: it's not difficult. you just have to be patient and eliminate the errors one by one | 22:28 |
| mikademus_ | I feel I have much to learn, this is actually a bit disconcerting, the feeling of not really knowing anything... Well, if so, thanks for the compliments (or congratulations on my good fortune?) you gave! | 22:28 |
| nosrednaekim | noth i'd say | 22:30 |
| nosrednaekim | *both | 22:31 |
| mikademus_ | Btw, is chatting ok in this channel, or am I creating noise? | 22:31 |
| Daisuke_Ido | !offtopic | mikademus_, usually we go here | 22:31 |
| ubotu | mikademus_, usually we go here: #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! | 22:31 |
| mikademus_ | zimon, so the general procedure is to save the config script, and toggle suspect parameters, recompile, remake the initrd image, update grub, reboot and pray? | 22:36 |
| zimon | mikademus_: right .. except that the proper way with ubuntu would be using make-kpkg ... that'll create a debian package which is installed with dpkg -i | 22:38 |
| mikademus_ | Ah, ok. But it is still as time consuming? | 22:39 |
| zimon | mikademus_: it's a lot more time consuming :-) | 22:39 |
| mikademus_ | lol | 22:39 |
| heath | zimon: I can't use the ubuntu packaged kernel | 22:39 |
| heath | zimon: I have a fake raid setup and the grub part fails... that's how I got hung up in the first place | 22:40 |
| zimon | mikademus_: but it's simple. you just do make-kpkg & dpkg -i ... you don't need to update grub manually, you don't need to make modules_install, you don't need to build the initrd .. | 22:40 |
| zimon | heath: i don't know anything about raid setups and how grub needs to be configured for that .. sorry | 22:41 |
| mikademus_ | So, beyond perhaps relatively little to gain from it, it there some reason why not to make a custom kernel for Kubuntu; if I make it with make-kpkg it will be fully conforming with (k)ubuntu? | 22:41 |
| heath | I got the config... but can I use an ubuntu style kernel without it running grub at the end?? | 22:42 |
| zimon | mikademus_: yes it will. here's a nice howto: http://symbolik.wordpress.com/2007/11/10/vanilla-kernel-26231-on-gutsy-gibbon/ | 22:42 |
| mikademus_ | Aah, thanks! Great! | 22:42 |

| === kubuntu is now known as xXandresXx | ||
| mikademus_ | But it has been a strange journey. With Vista I decided I fas finally fed up with Windows and wanted to try out Linux seriously. So I started with Kubuntu, then some ten or fifteen other distors, some great, but all with more or less severe drawbacks, and I find myself back at Kubuntu... | 22:50 |

| Dragnslcr | cheeby- #ubuntu+1 would be more helpful | 23:47 |
