| ForgeAus | I know way way back it used to be netscape and/or mozaic (moire?) were the main two browsers | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| ForgeAus | and after that Microsoft put their finger in the pie with Internet Explorer... | 00:00 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: in school, netscape and altavista were the s**t | 00:00 |
| ForgeAus | altavista used to be my fav search engine :) | 00:00 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: it was the best at the time. which is laughable now... | 00:01 |
| ForgeAus | it was the one that introduced babelfish afaik | 00:01 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: correct! | 00:01 |
| ForgeAus | now you just get groowe and you have all in one search engines.. of course theres also the search box in your browser assuming it has one (most do these days) | 00:01 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: google is awesomely powerful if you know all the 'dorks' | 00:02 |
| ForgeAus | dorks? | 00:02 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: essentially parameters that let you search with ninja-like precision | 00:03 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: google it! | 00:03 |
| unclean | "this does not seem to be a valid image" does that mean my download was courrpt? | 00:03 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: most likely | 00:04 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: you dl'd an iso and cannot mount it? | 00:04 |
| ForgeAus | possibly unclean | 00:04 |
| unclean | apparently | 00:04 |
| ForgeAus | what kind of image was it? | 00:04 |
| unclean | .iso | 00:04 |
| ForgeAus | I know it was a CD what but kind of data? | 00:04 |
| ForgeAus | if it was say a PSP .iso I wouldn't expect kiso to understand it | 00:04 |
| ForgeAus | (PSP being the games console Playstation Portable) | 00:05 |
| unclean | its a movie | 00:05 |
| ForgeAus | ok dvd one? or vcd one? | 00:05 |
| ForgeAus | k3b should understand it either way | 00:05 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: i think he's trying to mount without burning | 00:05 |
| ign0ramus | like a virtual drive | 00:05 |
| ForgeAus | yeah he was | 00:06 |
| ForgeAus | erm did | 00:06 |
| ForgeAus | although mounting a movie on dvd/cd is kinda strange | 00:06 |
| unclean | im not sure if its VCD or DVD it says NTSC in the file | 00:06 |
| ForgeAus | wouldn't you want to play it? | 00:06 |
| ForgeAus | using a media player? | 00:06 |
| ForgeAus | like Kaffeine or VLC for example? | 00:06 |
| unclean | i remember in windows i used a program called Daemon tools | 00:07 |
| unclean | to mount images | 00:07 |
| ForgeAus | NTSC = never the same colour? hehe kidding | 00:07 |
| unclean | like games or movies | 00:07 |
| unclean | then play them w/o the cd | 00:07 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: what command did you use? | 00:07 |
| unclean | i just installed Kiso | 00:07 |
| unclean | thats it | 00:07 |
| unclean | in KISO it tells me its not a vaild img file | 00:07 |
| ForgeAus | ign0ramus he used kiso to do the sudo mounting for him | 00:08 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: i don't know much about kiso. wanna try from the command line? | 00:08 |
| ign0ramus | sudo mount file.iso /media/isoimage/ -t iso9660 -o loop | 00:08 |
| ForgeAus | thats what kiso does (via gui) | 00:08 |
| ForgeAus | will be same issue | 00:08 |
| ForgeAus | maybe you should try a media player and to PLAY the CD/DVD instead of mounting it? | 00:09 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: that's what it's *supposed* to do... i have no idea what he's trying to do in the gui. command line is better for trouble shooting | 00:09 |
| ForgeAus | just refer to the .iso file as the "URI" in your player? | 00:09 |
| ForgeAus | woudln't that make more sense? | 00:10 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: i recommend installing vlc if you haven't already | 00:10 |
| ForgeAus | (if it really is a movie) .... | 00:10 |
| ForgeAus | either that or it's likely you were right about it being corrupted download... | 00:10 |
| unclean | I have | 00:10 |
| unclean | vlc | 00:10 |
| ForgeAus | ok what happens when you try to use vlc to open the .iso file? | 00:10 |
| unclean | I just want to play a movie w/o buring it | 00:10 |
| ign0ramus | in terminal, cd to the directory where your .iso is. then "vlc file.iso". it should play | 00:11 |
| ForgeAus | unclean thats exactly what I'm trying to do for you.. | 00:11 |
| unclean | okay i opend the file in vlc | 00:11 |
| ign0ramus | and if it doesn't it should at least give you some good information as to why it won't | 00:11 |
| ign0ramus | it's playing? | 00:12 |
| ForgeAus | ign0ramus too :) | 00:12 |
| unclean | and... its playing but no image or sound... | 00:12 |
| unclean | okay it just stopped playing | 00:12 |
| ForgeAus | uh... that doesn't sound good... | 00:12 |
| ign0ramus | possibly a corrupt .iso.... | 00:12 |
| === ting is now known as ting_ | ||
| ign0ramus | same effect in kaffeine (for replication purposes) | 00:12 |
| === ting_ is now known as ting | ||
| ForgeAus | yeah I agree, unless its some kind of codec issue | 00:12 |
| ForgeAus | but I thought vlc had all the codec's etc... | 00:12 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: codec issues? in my vlc? :) | 00:12 |
| * ForgeAus shrugs | 00:13 | |
| ign0ramus | unclean: you have all restricted codecs and libdvdcss installed? | 00:13 |
| unclean | yes | 00:13 |
| ForgeAus | unclean the most likely explaination is what you said, that you have a corrupted .iso file... | 00:13 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: then it sounds like a corrupt file | 00:13 |
| ting | test | 00:13 |
| ForgeAus | sorry but I don't think we can assist you any further with that lol | 00:14 |
| ForgeAus | hey ting | 00:14 |
| ForgeAus | was I supposed to reply to that test? | 00:14 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: if you have extra blank cd's, you can try to burn it... if it works, then something is wrong | 00:14 |
| ForgeAus | rofl ign0ramus | 00:14 |
| ting | hi forgeaus | 00:14 |
| ting | first time here, stll learning... | 00:15 |
| ForgeAus | anyhow my own possibly corrupted iso is pretty much done so I better check exactly how far its got | 00:15 |
| unclean | well i did try burning it and nothing picked up the dvd | 00:15 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: your nick looks decidely french when typed in all lowercase | 00:15 |
| ForgeAus | hehe true | 00:15 |
| ign0ramus | i was like 'who is he talking to?' | 00:16 |
| ForgeAus | the eau thing is frenchish | 00:16 |
| ForgeAus | like the -eaux suffix | 00:16 |
| ForgeAus | of course Frenchish should always have a capital F too... | 00:16 |
| ForgeAus | but I'm not so great with the technicalities of langauge sometimes | 00:16 |
| ForgeAus | which is odd coming from a poet :) | 00:17 |
| ign0ramus | yeah, but you have that poetic license to hide behind | 00:17 |
| SkEmO | dont vote obama! hes evil like windows! | 00:17 |
| ign0ramus | SkEmO: *facepalm* | 00:17 |
| ForgeAus | I aren't going to vote for anyone in an American Election since I'm both in and from Australia | 00:17 |
| SkEmO | argh | 00:18 |
| ForgeAus | unfortunately our elections here are Mandatory... | 00:18 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: some people have a hard time understanding that there are other people in the world | 00:18 |
| === root is now known as Guest76058 | ||
| ForgeAus | we get fined, perhaps even jailed? for not voting... | 00:18 |
| ForgeAus | well thats why I have the Aus on the end of my nick to assist with that one :) | 00:18 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: you can't help everyone :) | 00:19 |
| ForgeAus | doesn't stop me from trying ... sometimes | 00:19 |
| ForgeAus | however true it may be | 00:19 |
| unclean | okay I go to open the .iso in KAffenine and it keeps trying to d/l the codec then it says "error codec alrdy installed" then keeps trying forever! | 00:19 |
| ForgeAus | rofl sounds like kaffeine to me :) | 00:19 |
| ForgeAus | perhaps it drank too big a dose? rofl | 00:20 |
| ign0ramus | unclean: kaffeine does that to me too. that's why i use mplayer or vlc. i've never really liked kaffeine, but it's one of those things that's installed by default, so i know most people still have it | 00:20 |
| ForgeAus | normally I'd expect VLC to handle corruption more gracefulyl than Kaffeine, but that could just be me | 00:20 |
| ForgeAus | in KDE4 theres Dragon player for video | 00:21 |
| ForgeAus | I'm not even sure if it still has Kaffeine (DragonPlayer is basically Codein growded up a little) | 00:21 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: I have that too, but it doesn't seem to have a lot of options (granted, i didn't really look too hard) | 00:21 |
| ForgeAus | (note my bad English there was on purpose) | 00:22 |
| ForgeAus | ign0ramus KDE is still relatively new give it time | 00:22 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: i have a bunch of duplicate apps from when i was testing kde4... i got rid of it, but many of the apps remained | 00:22 |
| ForgeAus | (in case you didn't understand what the real word should have been instead of growded, try grown :) | 00:22 |
| ForgeAus | I still have a bunch of dupliate KDE4 apps and I still use KDE3 as my default | 00:23 |
| ForgeAus | unfortunately Intrepid will be using KDE4 as its default | 00:23 |
| ForgeAus | perhaps imho a little prematurely, however when the time comes it may not be quite so... we shall see | 00:23 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: no kde3 Intrepid release? | 00:23 |
| ForgeAus | afaik there won't be a kde3 intrepid | 00:24 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: I'm still not ready to use kde4... i haven't tried the latest few versions, but the early ones were just unbearable | 00:24 |
| * [pyro] is wondering why his k3b says it can be updated but wont update | 00:24 | |
| ForgeAus | not even a default /.kde (that is kde4) and optional /.kde3 | 00:24 |
| B_Raven | Ehh, as long as amarok 2.0 is ready by that time I'm cool with KDE4 being the default. Hopefully nvidia will have fixed their issues with 2D rendering by then too. | 00:24 |
| * ForgeAus shrugs pyro, good question | 00:24 | |
| ign0ramus | pyro: i just went through that whole deal. if its saying that some packages were held back, *just leave them* | 00:25 |
| [pyro] | sure | 00:25 |
| [pyro] | i have been :) | 00:25 |
| ForgeAus | NVidia/ATI drivers can be a real headache in X11 | 00:25 |
| ForgeAus | I never quite got them working way back in Edgy | 00:25 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: I actually think that they're sometimes better than Intel graphics. It depends on the card, though. | 00:26 |
| B_Raven | Install works perfectly for me, but the current ones have a nasty reputation for having issues with 2D rendering speed on 8 and 9 series cards. | 00:26 |
| ForgeAus | I kinda feel sorry for unclean, I know how it is to wait for so long to get an .iso when you download a hefty sized file like that only to have it not work due to data corruption :( | 00:26 |
| ign0ramus | ForgeAus: there's plenty more porn out there. | 00:27 |
| ForgeAus | ign0ramus your presumptuous! | 00:27 |
| ForgeAus | besides I was talking about an operating system instead lol :) | 00:27 |
| ign0ramus | it's just a gut feeling | 00:27 |
| ForgeAus | at least in that case... | 00:27 |
| ign0ramus | he said the .iso was a 'movie' | 00:28 |
| ForgeAus | well it could have been some anime classic like Akira... wait thats not porn is it? | 00:28 |
| ForgeAus | or "A Beautiful Mind" for all I know... | 00:28 |
| ign0ramus | if it was, it would be 'hentai' | 00:28 |
| [pyro] | kaira isnt porn no | 00:29 |
| [pyro] | akira* | 00:29 |
| ign0ramus | ok, when i've gone this far off-topic, its time for me to go | 00:29 |
| ign0ramus | good chatting, fellas | 00:29 |
| ForgeAus | I never quite understood the ending of Akira... | 00:29 |
| ForgeAus | I was fine with it until a little after the big explosion happened... | 00:30 |
| r_bender | Anybody know how ubuntu runs compared to Suse? | 00:32 |
| afeijo | my firefox freezes when I try to open the 3rd window | 00:43 |

| Danu | i download some and i don't know how to do it :( | 00:44 |
| Danu | please some help | 00:46 |

| Danu | i don't know how to change the window border :( | 00:49 |
| Danu | help | 00:49 |
| Denise | window border | 00:50 |
| Danu | i don't like crystal | 00:50 |
| Denise | what u like | 00:50 |
| Danu | the window that kubuntu have (crystal) | 00:51 |
| Danu | how do i change it for another? | 00:51 |
| Denise | someone knows how to use thunderbird | 00:53 |
| Sixzero | Thunderbird? What'do ya wanna know? | 00:53 |
| Danu | nobody? | 00:54 |
| Sixzero | You wanna change the window settings? | 00:54 |
| Danu | yes i don't like crystal | 00:54 |
| Sixzero | Click the K in the corner of your screen, go up above the word actions and click system settings | 00:55 |
| Danu | i downloaded some of kde-look but i don't see how to install them | 00:55 |
| Sixzero | where did you download them from? | 00:55 |
| Danu | kde-look | 00:55 |
| Sixzero | from kde-look.com? | 00:55 |
| Danu | yes | 00:55 |
| Danu | window decoration | 00:56 |
| Sixzero | Ah. I have yet to install new decorations, so I'm not 100% sure how to do that yet, but I can tell you where to change your window settings to something that's already installed. | 00:56 |
| Sixzero | K, system settings, Appearance, then Window Decorations | 00:57 |
| Sixzero | I use the Keramic myself, looks pretty out there. | 00:57 |
| Sixzero | Denise: what did you need to know about thunderbird? | 00:57 |
| Danu | i want another keramik, plastik, i don't like them xD | 00:58 |
| Denise | when i chose the server | 00:58 |
| Denise | do i put my personal furnisher company or hotmail if it is a hotmail account | 00:58 |
| Sixzero | Danu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=276109 | 00:59 |
| Denise | I m dummy tonight | 01:00 |
| Sixzero | I'm not sure if Hotmail allows you to setup your email accounts with outside clients. I know with Yahoo! you have to pay for that special priviledge. What's the email account of your company and I | 01:00 |
| Denise | more than usual I guess | 01:00 |
| Sixzero | I'll tell you what to type in. | 01:00 |
| ForgeAus | I'm happy with crystal decorators and icons generally in Kubuntu although I do mod them heavily and the colourschemes... | 01:01 |
| ForgeAus | my current one I dub "my blue heaven" since its widgets are a pale-blue based on keramilk's colourtheme | 01:02 |
| Sixzero | Denise: http://www.mozilla.org/support/thunderbird/faq#webmail | 01:02 |
| ForgeAus | only that I used colours from that to lighten the window parts as well | 01:02 |
| Sixzero | Denise: Yes. The Webmail extension integrates web site based email accounts into Thunderbird, allowing Thunderbird to download and to send emails using the web site. Some services may require a subscription for this type of access. Current information on the Webmail extension, supported services, and other add-ons for web based email can be found at the WebMail development site. | 01:02 |
| ForgeAus | its a better blubuntu that the gnome theme for ubuntu called blubuntu is thats for certain hehe :) | 01:03 |
| Denise | thanks | 01:03 |
| Sixzero | I changed all my bars from blue to silver. | 01:03 |
| Danu | thenks anyway Sixzero | 01:03 |
| ForgeAus | Six you'll be at home with Oxygen theme from KDE4 then | 01:03 |
| Sixzero | Denise: http://webmail.mozdev.org/ This link is the program you'll need to integrate hotmail into thunderbird. I haven't tried it myself yet, but I'm gonna check it out tonight. | 01:04 |
| Sixzero | I'm using Crystal SVG icons, Klearlooks widgets, and Keramik window frames. | 01:05 |
| NCommander | Riddell, I have a new kdelibs fix | 01:06 |
| Sixzero | I tend to keep hopping back and forth between kde 3 and 4 | 01:06 |
| ForgeAus | sounds good to me Sixzero | 01:06 |
| Sixzero | But the next time I log onto my kde4 session I'll switch it around and see what you were sayin'. | 01:06 |
| Sixzero | Btw, has anyone here ever had an issue with their sound coming out as too high of a pitch? Like, if you install a new soundcard, has anyone ever noticed their sound becoming a higher octave than normal on kubuntu 3? | 01:08 |
| ForgeAus | the printscreen button gives me just one window how do I take a full screenshot? | 01:14 |
| Daisuke_Ido | alt+printscreen perhaps? | 01:19 |
| Daisuke_Ido | installing kde again | 01:20 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i know this will end in heartache | 01:20 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but i haven't used it yet under hardy, so here's hoping | 01:20 |
| Daisuke_Ido | (3, not 4. i'm not that much of a masochist!) | 01:21 |
| ForgeAus | I'm atlking about kde3 | 01:21 |
| Sixzero | heartache, Daisuke? | 01:21 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Sixzero: kde and i have a love/hate relationship | 01:22 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as djamu | ||
| Daisuke_Ido | it loves to make me hate it. | 01:22 |
| Daisuke_Ido | well, i shall return shortly | 01:22 |
| ForgeAus | you love to hate it or it hates to love you? | 01:23 |
| Sixzero | Daisuke_Ido: Ah, I understand your struggles. I'm still fighting with it. | 01:23 |
| Daisuke_Ido | alrighty then, i'm back on kde | 01:25 |
| Daisuke_Ido | this is hideously ugly under kde3 | 01:26 |
| djamu | bla..bla..bla everyone | 01:27 |
| Daisuke_Ido | well that's substantially better. forcing 96dpi seems to work much better for the fonts | 01:28 |
| ForgeAus | Ksnapshot did it, is there a pastebin-like site for pix? | 01:28 |
| Daisuke_Ido | imageshack.us | 01:28 |
| ForgeAus | its a png of my desktop, basic one, nothing special... but will give you a clue as to what I meant by my blue heaven :) | 01:28 |
| nejode | Daisuke_ldo: the printscreen key should open Ksnapshot | 01:29 |
| Daisuke_Ido | should, but apparently didn't in his case | 01:29 |
| nejode | you can configure it two ways at least | 01:30 |
| ForgeAus | ok I think I shrunk it a little too far but this should give you the idea: http://img392.imageshack.us/my.php?image=blueheavensds3.png | 01:37 |
| ForgeAus | (nothing spectacular just my blue theme | 01:37 |
| ForgeAus | you can tell by my placement of the "trash" that I'm a former Windows user :) | 01:38 |
| ForgeAus | I really aught to get myself a kewl non-default blue wallpaper | 01:40 |
| Sixzero | Anyone here ever heard of Hulu.com? | 01:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Sixzero: heard of, yes, used, no. | 01:41 |
| ForgeAus | uh heard of it, I can't remember being there tho | 01:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ForgeAus: looks pretty standard to me | 01:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no kicker visible, but that's about the only real difference i can see | 01:42 |
| Sixzero | I just discovered it today on youtube. If you like Fox sitcoms and such, it might be worth a look at. For being completely free with no signing up or anything, it might just be the best video site i've ever seen. | 01:42 |
| ForgeAus | hehe I autohid my kicker, its blue too | 01:42 |
| ForgeAus | the non-defaultness is mostly the the widget colours | 01:42 |
| dr_willis | Sixzero, problem ive seen with many of those video sites - is that due to 'deals and other things going on' what videos you can watch today.. may radically change in the next week. :( | 01:43 |
| dr_willis | Sixzero, so enjoy the vids while you can. :) | 01:43 |
| * NCommander turns on the ScottK light | 01:43 | |
| ForgeAus | (keramilk is normally grey or white toobar/menu, etc backgrounds so I made my tabs/controls, etc all blu to mix in with it nicely, so they blend.. other than that and the grey bg for text its pretty much default | 01:44 |
| ForgeAus | I've been to hulu before I remember that site, it wouldn't let me watch anything because I wasn't from their country | 01:44 |
| r_bender | sorry had to step out, but just tried out ubuntu and have one question | 01:44 |
| dr_willis | Sixzero, at least that site tags the 'full movies' :) the wife liked that feature. she was sick of looking for somtning to watch and only finding video clips | 01:45 |
| ForgeAus | wow you can watch Fringe there! | 01:46 |
| shadowhywind | hay all in order to get my wireless card to work (ndiswrapper), I have to restart dbus first? is this normal? | 01:47 |
| dr_willis | First Video at Hulu i try to watch wants me to login...... | 01:48 |
| dr_willis | :) | 01:48 |
| dr_willis | it aparently has 'nudity' | 01:48 |
| Sixzero | lol, i haven't tried one of "those" yet | 01:48 |
| dr_willis | 'bad girls from mars' a old B Sci-Fi movie. :) | 01:49 |
| Sixzero | I only just watched an episode of family guy with on 45 seconds worth of commercials. Pretty cool. | 01:49 |
| dr_willis | Sixzero, last i checked veoh and Hulu were some how related also. (or making some deals) a lot of the hulu shows ive seen with the Veoh Player app. (windows only) | 01:50 |
| Sixzero | shadowhywind: do you have to do it every time you want to use it? | 01:51 |
| shadowhywind | Sixzero: only on reboots | 01:51 |
| Sixzero | shadowhywind: what is your wireless card? | 01:52 |
| shadowhywind | Sixzero: bcm4312 | 01:52 |
| dr_willis | 'the following video is broght to you with limited comercial interuuption by the....' "Ad Council" ? The Gov is buying ads on R movies. :) | 01:53 |
| Sixzero | shadowhywind: I've got a linksys card in my compaq box running on that same driver, but it only asked about the dbus once, and that was weeks ago, so i can't recall exactly what it said. | 01:53 |
| shadowhywind | ah | 01:53 |
| ofv | the Display settings dialog does not show the "natural" resolution (1600x1050) of my monitor (LG W2242T) | 01:53 |
| Sixzero | ofv: what video card are you running on? | 01:54 |
| ofv | Ati sapphire 3600 | 01:54 |
| Sixzero | ofv: is it a radeon? | 01:54 |
| ofv | yes | 01:54 |
| Sixzero | ofv: have you installed drivers for it yet? | 01:55 |
| dr_willis | 'native' res. :) You are using the DVI output conection for the monitor? | 01:55 |
| ofv | dr_willis: yes | 01:55 |
| dr_willis | ofv, normally on mymachines - one has to have the ati, or nvidia drivers properly installed, and then it will use the proper res | 01:55 |
| ofv | Sixzero: it is working "by default". The propietary drivers crashes the machine on startup. | 01:55 |
| ofv | dr_willis: how can I check that I have the drivers properly installed? | 01:56 |
| Sixzero | ofv: I couldn't get the display settings to detect my monitor as anything other than plug and play generic monitor UNTIL I was able to get my radeon drivers properly installed. Problem being is that ubuntu by itself couldnt recognize my monitor, but with the video card drivers (no monitor driver is available for me) it is now able to correctly identify the monitor and its native resolution. | 01:57 |
| Sixzero | ofv: hold on a second and I'll give you the link to the drivers you need and the other information you'll need with it. It's kind of a pain, but once you get it going right, it'll be WELL worth it. | 01:58 |
| ofv | Sixzero: okay, same question as for dr_willis: how to check that drivers are okay? (I'm a novice) | 01:58 |
| dr_willis | Well if you said you isntalled them befor and the thing crashed.. thats not a good sign. | 01:58 |
| ofv | Sixzero: thanks, waiting eagerly :-) | 01:58 |
| dr_willis | the main issue is with ati/ubuntu/linux drivers :( and new cards.. often it takes a few weeks/months for the drivers to get updated properly. | 01:59 |
| dr_willis | Ive totally given up on ATI cards for the next few years. | 01:59 |
| Sixzero | ofv: once you install the drivers, you'll want to open a terminal window and type flgrxinfo. If it talks about Mesa drivers, then it didn't install correctly. If it tells you about ATI drivers, then you're golden. | 01:59 |
| dr_willis | !ati | 01:59 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 01:59 |
| ofv | ubottu: aren't those the drivers available via the Hardware Manager. They crash my computer on startup. | 02:00 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:00 |
| vilhelm | do I only have to install samba to be able to share folders on the network? | 02:00 |
| Sixzero | ofv: is it an HD 3600? | 02:01 |
| Sixzero | ofv: lol, you tried to chat with the bot. | 02:01 |
| ofv | Yes. | 02:01 |
| ofv | hahaha :-) Novice IRC user too :-) | 02:01 |
| Sixzero | ofv: its ok, so am i. | 02:02 |
| Sixzero | ofv: These are the drivers you need. | 02:02 |

| dr_willis | Hardware manager app may not get the 'latest' drivers. (in fact odds are it wont get the latest) | 02:09 |
| dr_willis | Theres also the envyng tool that 'might' grab newer drivers and install them for you. | 02:09 |
| dr_willis | ofv, failing all this. The next ubuntu release is due out next month. It shold have updated drivers on it. | 02:09 |
| ofv | Thanks, dr_willis, I'll keep that in mind. | 02:09 |
| ofv | Sixzero: the file is here. | 02:10 |
| dr_willis | Ubntu uses this 'ever 6 mo' the next release comes out. schedule. So often its just easier to wait a bit. (or test out the beta/rc/pre-release versions)) | 02:10 |
| Sixzero | ofv: Ok, for the sake of simplicity, I want you to right-click the file you just downloaded, and rename it ati.run | 02:10 |
| ofv | done | 02:11 |
| Sixzero | ofv: i opened a private window so we don't get yelled at for flooding the support channel. | 02:11 |

| Sixzero | is the picture blown up so big that you can't see half the screen, or do you see the whole screen, yet half the screen is blank? | 04:02 |

| mani213 | then they should be yet my wallpaper is normal size | 04:03 |

| Sixzero | mani213: change the resolution to as high as the slider bar will let you...if you cant see the apply button, then after you change the resolution, click the back button and tell us what happens | 04:11 |
| Sixzero | It should ask if you want to save the changes, if it does, go ahead and save it | 04:12 |
| Sixzero | What model is your monitor, btw? | 04:12 |
| mani213 | 1280x800 | 04:13 |

| [pyro] | stick it on a website | 04:19 |
| Sixzero | I just cant think of what it would've been | 04:19 |
| [pyro] | flikr or something | 04:19 |
| mani213 | which website? | 04:19 |
| [pyro] | oh right | 04:19 |
| mani213 | how do i send the while to you | 04:20 |

| Sixzero | photobucket.com | 04:21 |
| Sixzero | flikr.com | 04:21 |

| mani213 | man i tried | 04:25 |
| mani213 | its linux | 04:25 |
| earthsound | thanks, mani213, I did see that. it gives instructions on getting kd4 installed, but just says you can install it alongside kde3. i'm looking for instructions on how to cleanly remove as much as kde3 as possible w/o having to manually go through adept and find all of the kde3 packages. does such a set of instructions exist? | 04:26 |
| earthsound | sorry, thanks kreggz | 04:26 |
| sammy | Ыыыы | 04:27 |
| kreggz | earthsound: I think the only way to do it is to install the latest version of Kubuntu which is Intrepid i think | 04:27 |
| [pyro] | mani213: if you set your resolution down 1 notch in the config box, does that look normal then? | 04:27 |
| kreggz | earthsound: it still will have some kde3 libs | 04:27 |
| [pyro] | mani213: you may need to restart your x server after changing the res settings | 04:27 |
| [pyro] | its going to be a while before i remove kde3 :) | 04:27 |
| sammy | русские есть?=) | 04:27 |
| mani213 | ye | 04:28 |
| mani213 | how so | 04:28 |
| mani213 | do i restart the x server | 04:28 |
| mani213 | i think thats what i did last time | 04:28 |
| earthsound | i guess i'll just add kde4 alongside kde3 and log into it separately, then | 04:28 |
| [pyro] | well, you can log out of your session, when you get the login screen up, press CTRL ALT and BACKSPACE and that will restart x server, then login again | 04:28 |
| kreggz | you could also try to go into gnome | 04:28 |
| kreggz | and remove kubuntu | 04:28 |
| mani213 | theres no command that would reset my monitor settings | 04:29 |
| mani213 | and set them up again? | 04:29 |

| kreggz | a driver which is restricted | 05:11 |
| mefisto__ | freeRag: not free, open source | 05:11 |
| Sixzero | It's a driver that can't be released with the ubuntu package because it's closed source | 05:11 |
| freeRag | ha just that | 05:11 |
| mani213 | it shows | 05:12 |
| Sixzero | otherwise known as proprietary | 05:12 |
| mani213 | two components | 05:12 |
| mani213 | thats are enabled | 05:12 |
| kreggz | yep download them both | 05:12 |
| freeRag | damn linux frolks always renaming and rebrading stuff | 05:12 |
| tony_ | how do i find the md5 of a dvd? | 05:13 |

| mani213 | i cant download them it just shows whats being used | 05:13 |
| mani213 | naw | 05:13 |

| kreggz | in the terminal type sudo synaptic | 05:13 |
| mani213 | i see atheros hardware and a wireless lan card | 05:13 |
| Sixzero | tony_: there are small utilities on the internet that can show you. it's easiest to search it in google or download one from a torrent | 05:13 |
| Sixzero | tony_: you're looking for the checksum, right? | 05:14 |
| _2 | not sudo with gui apps kreggz | 05:14 |
| tony_ | i googled. only one came up and it didn't work | 05:14 |
| tony_ | Sixzero: yes | 05:14 |
| freeRag | can i install kubuntu on windows add remove programs ? | 05:14 |
| kreggz | works for me ;) | 05:14 |
| _2 | !kdesudo | everyone! | 05:14 |
| ubottu | everyone!: In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 05:14 |
| mefisto__ | !sudo | 05:14 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 05:14 |
| mani213 | so ye what do i do now? | 05:15 |
| kreggz | ouch | 05:15 |
| kreggz | type kdesu synaptic | 05:15 |
| _2 | !worksforme | kreggz | 05:15 |
| ubottu | kreggz: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 05:15 |
| kreggz | ;( | 05:15 |
| freeRag | can i install kubuntu on windows add remove programs ? | 05:15 |
| mefisto__ | freeRag: yes | 05:16 |
| mani213 | so do i need to install a video driver now? | 05:16 |
| freeRag | to usb ? | 05:16 |
| _2 | kreggz and don't get discurraged. remember i'm lagging so my posts will appear out of sequense. | 05:17 |
| Sixzero | tony_: check private message | 05:17 |
| kreggz | _2 thats ok, I'm learning things all the time | 05:17 |
| kreggz | mani213: do you have synaptic open now? | 05:17 |
| mani213 | whats synaptic? | 05:18 |
| kreggz | main213: type kdesu synaptic | 05:18 |
| _2 | i.e. to see what i'm responding to read maybe the top line of your screen and then my post ;/ | 05:18 |
| kreggz | mani213: it is a graphic utility to install programs | 05:19 |
| mani213 | mani213@mani213-desktop:~$ kdesu synaptic | 05:19 |
| mani213 | sudo: synaptic: command not found | 05:19 |
| _2 | i think the transfer just finished.... maybe i'm not lagging now... | 05:19 |

| mani213 | so i need to download it ? | 05:19 |
| kreggz | mani213: are you having a joke with me?? | 05:19 |
| freeRag | so kubuntu can redistribute the proprietary driver ? | 05:19 |
| mani213 | what do you mean? | 05:19 |
| _2 | mani213 you can but don't need to kdesudo adept | 05:19 |
| kreggz | i though synaptic came standard, maybe it doesn't... | 05:20 |
| freeRag | kreggz: hes been here 4 ever trying the helpers patience | 05:20 |
| _2 | freeRag under special rules yes. | 05:20 |
| mani213 | when i type in kdesu synaptic it says not found | 05:20 |
| kreggz | ok, type sudo apt-get install synaptic | 05:20 |
| freeRag | kdesu apt-get nvidia | 05:20 |
| sd32 | everytime i change my system colors KWD crashes causing a 11 (SIGSEGV) error, how do i fix this? | 05:20 |

| kreggz | tony_: if you want to use the graphical interface there is a widget you can add | 05:23 |
| _2 | tony_ there is a kde4 specific channel #kubuntu-kde4 | 05:24 |
| valentinex | Hello I am a C language student in windows I was using turbo C++ compiler for my studies but now I am in kubuntu I don't know which will be nice for me? | 05:24 |
| mani213 | yo this is the same as adept manager | 05:24 |
| _2 | !info gcc | valentinex | 05:24 |
| ubottu | valentinex: gcc (source: gcc-defaults (1.62ubuntu6)): The GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.2.3-1ubuntu6 (hardy), package size 4 kB, installed size 64 kB | 05:24 |
| mani213 | is that what you were asking for | 05:24 |
| kreggz | mani213: do a search for envy-ng | 05:25 |
| tony_ | kreggz: what widget is that? | 05:25 |
| _2 | valentinex install the package build-essential and it will pull in most every thing you need | 05:25 |
| _2 | valentinex you might want to look at kdevelop too | 05:25 |
| kreggz | tony_: new device notifier | 05:26 |
| _2 | !info kdevelop > valentinex | 05:26 |
| ubottu | valentinex, please see my private message | 05:26 |
| valentinex | _2: thanks trying :D | 05:26 |
| kreggz | tony_: add it from the task bar not the desktop | 05:27 |
| twylight | and at long last, I get my laptop up and running again | 05:27 |
| * twylight blows the dust off the keyboard | 05:27 | |
| kreggz | you can but it isn't as convenient | 05:27 |
| mani213 | i see envy-core | 05:28 |
| mani213 | and envy-qt | 05:28 |
| kreggz | get the gtk one | 05:28 |
| mani213 | can i get em all | 05:28 |
| mani213 | core gtk and qt? | 05:28 |
| kreggz | just get gtk | 05:28 |
| valentinex | _2: sorry I am new to kubuntu where to install that? build-essential | 05:28 |
| twylight | O.o Su returned with an error | 05:29 |
| twylight | how do I fix that | 05:29 |
| bobito | twylight: use sudo | 05:29 |
| twylight | not in the console | 05:30 |
| twylight | then again, I'm using 6.06.1 | 05:30 |
| _2 | !dpkg | valentinex | 05:30 |
| ubottu | valentinex: dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. | 05:30 |
| _2 | !adept | valentinex | 05:30 |
| ubottu | valentinex: adept is the Kubuntu package manager. Howto: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdeptHowto | 05:30 |
| mani213 | okay its downloading 5% done | 05:30 |
| bobito | twylight: Ijust joinedthe chat,what are ya trying to do? | 05:30 |
| _2 | there. see the link ^ | 05:30 |
| twylight | whenever I try to run an application using kdesu it fails, and says | 05:31 |
| twylight | Su crashed with an error | 05:31 |
| _2 | !kdesudo | twylight | 05:32 |
| ubottu | twylight: In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 05:32 |
| valentinex | _2: thanks :o | 05:32 |
| _2 | twylight also if you need to test sudo's functionality. in a konsole run sudo echo boo if it boo's at you it's working | 05:32 |
| twylight | ok..... | 05:32 |
| twylight | this is messed up | 05:32 |
| twylight | half the time it works | 05:33 |
| twylight | and the other half it makes my pointer go all screwy | 05:33 |
| _2 | that sounds somewhat like a vidio driver glitch | 05:33 |
| kreggz | mani213: When you get envy, find it in the K menu. Once in the program download the ATI drivers | 05:33 |
| _2 | !envy | 05:34 |
| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 05:34 |
| bobito | twylight: is it the bug listed on the bottom of the page ubottu gave? | 05:34 |
| twylight | nope | 05:34 |
| mani213 | ok | 05:34 |
| kreggz | mani213: this may help you with your problem... no guarantees | 05:34 |
| twylight | never mind it, I've got it fixed | 05:34 |
| mani213 | okay man | 05:34 |
| mani213 | thanks for the help | 05:35 |
| mani213 | i wasted a good value of your time | 05:35 |
| bobito | ubottu: thanks for the link chap, good to know | 05:35 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:35 |

| mani213 | lol | 05:36 |
| kreggz | robots don't get paid | 05:36 |
| _2 | !patience | 05:36 |
| ubottu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 05:36 |
| mani213 | oh ok ok | 05:36 |
| _2 | there it is. | 05:37 |
| twylight | !irrelevance | 05:37 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about irrelevance | 05:37 |
| twylight | !anything | 05:37 |
| ubottu | So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone. | 05:37 |
| twylight | that's as much as I'm going to abuse ubotu | 05:37 |
| _2 | !botsnack | 05:37 |

| kreggz | mani213: i know how you feel | 05:38 |
| _2 | mani213 that's what brought most of us here | 05:38 |
| twylight | what happened to the message of dealing with insanity? | 05:38 |
| twylight | or was I always too intoxicated to deal with that? | 05:38 |
| mani213 | what do you think of apple osx? | 05:39 |
| ForgeAus | hehe | 05:39 |
| Sixzero | !botabuse | 05:39 |
| ubottu | Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubottu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids. | 05:39 |
| ForgeAus | my message of dealing with insanity = "sometime insanity is the sanest choice" | 05:39 |
| ForgeAus | then again I also tend to say "confusion is my natural state" | 05:39 |
| ForgeAus | mani213 :) nice attitude | 05:40 |
| _2 | ForgeAus when someone says to me "oh, you are from the states, which one?" i normally answer "confusion" | 05:40 |
| mani213 | lol | 05:40 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: hit alt-F2 and type in: krandrtray | 05:40 |
| ForgeAus | I don't know much about apple OSX either, but I am an equal opportunity OS enthusiast :) | 05:40 |
| twylight | in adept, how do I get the list from the universe and multiverse? | 05:41 |
| mani213 | ye this sets your screen size | 05:41 |
| gx009 | its spelled confucious | 05:41 |

| ForgeAus | (krandrtray I mean) | 05:42 |
| ForgeAus | I always loved quickres :) | 05:42 |
| mefisto__ | ForgeAus: it comes with the kcontrol package | 05:42 |
| gx009 | am only here 'cause i put 3.5.9 on my desktop | 05:42 |

| gx009 | its a phylosophical .rpm | 05:43 |
| mani213 | man if i cant fiz this ima fix it tom i gata go sleep wake up class tom:S | 05:43 |
| * ForgeAus thinks an .rpm is alien :) | 05:43 | |
| twylight | 2, I am using 6.06 | 05:43 |
| twylight | OLD version on a craptop | 05:43 |
| mani213 | usually ppl ask me what osx im runnin when they see linux on my laptop | 05:44 |
| _2 | twylight dapper here too | 05:44 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: has anyone asked to paste your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? | 05:44 |
| ForgeAus | makes sense mani :) | 05:44 |
| ForgeAus | so what osx are you running rofl :) | 05:44 |
| mani213 | no | 05:44 |
| twylight | I need to get some packages to turn this thing into what I need it to do | 05:44 |
| mani213 | i dont think so | 05:44 |
| _2 | twylight if the page doesn't still contain the link for dappet i'll see if ican find you something | 05:44 |
| _2 | dapper | 05:45 |
| mani213 | im a noob :( | 05:45 |
| Sixzero | I'm triplebooting 10.4.5 Tiger, Kubuntu 8.04 LTS, and XP Home... =) | 05:45 |
| twylight | I remember all I had to do was type in something in konsole but apparently not | 05:45 |
| twylight | something like sudo apt-get update | 05:45 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: can you copy the contents of that file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) at http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and then tell us the url | 05:45 |
| ForgeAus | twylight sudo apt-get update will just refresh your list of packages | 05:46 |
| mani213 | mani213@mani213-desktop:~$ /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:46 |
| mani213 | bash: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Permission denied | 05:46 |
| mani213 | mani213@mani213-desktop:~$ | 05:46 |
| ForgeAus | to install one you use sudo apt-get install <packagenamehere> | 05:46 |
| _2 | twylight here's a list of dapper sources. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d7085814b | 05:46 |
| ForgeAus | (or adept if you wish to do it graphically) | 05:46 |
| gx009 | ... && apt-get upgrade | 05:46 |
| twylight | forge, I know how to do this, the problem is getting the list of packages to start with | 05:47 |
| ForgeAus | gx009 or dist-upgrade :) | 05:47 |
| twylight | this install is incredibly broken and I'm trying to get it up to speed | 05:47 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: to open the file: kwrite /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:47 |
| _2 | twylight oops "restricted" is not on any of those. you can add it to each execpt the backports | 05:47 |
| mani213 | i just installed envy | 05:48 |
| ForgeAus | twylight I'd suggest if you have something like dapper that you forget updating "THIS" install and just download a hardy .iso and start from there | 05:48 |
| gx009 | !envy | 05:48 |
| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 05:48 |
| twylight | this laptop is from 1999 | 05:48 |
| ForgeAus | becasue dapper -> edgy -> feisty -> gutsy -> hardy is a LONG path | 05:48 |
| _2 | twylight kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list | 05:48 |
| twylight | it's an old P3 IBM thinkpad | 05:48 |
| kreggz | mani213, open it from the k menu | 05:48 |
| mani213 | it ssays | 05:49 |
| mani213 | envy doesnt support my card | 05:49 |
| mani213 | and foes recognise it | 05:49 |
| mani213 | :S | 05:49 |
| mani213 | doesnt* | 05:49 |
| twylight | hardy won't run on this, I tried | 05:50 |
| twylight | dapper is the only secure version that runs | 05:50 |
| geek | twylight: what model? | 05:50 |
| twylight | I've no idea | 05:50 |
| ForgeAus | what card DO you have mani213? | 05:50 |
| geek | and what kinda issue? | 05:50 |
| mani213 | ati 9200 | 05:50 |
| geek | er.. it should say on it ;p | 05:50 |
| Ubuntu392944 | AHHH !! :| | 05:50 |
| kreggz | main213: so you tied to install the ATI driver? | 05:50 |
| ForgeAus | !ati | 05:50 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:50 |
| mani213 | ye | 05:50 |
| twylight | I'm not flipping this thing over | 05:50 |
| _2 | twylight each repo has a common look and feel about it. "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main universe multiverse restricted" <<< the type. the url the codename (dapper) the section/s all ubuntu sources.list files have that look and feel. and anything starting with # is ignored. | 05:50 |
| Ubuntu392944 | Why does Kubuntu have to be so AWESOME!! :( | 05:50 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: I had that card until a few days ago. wait and I'll find a link for you | 05:51 |
| geek | twylight: should be on the front. on the bar with the indicator lights | 05:51 |
| twylight | iSeries | 05:51 |
| mani213 | ok | 05:51 |
| twylight | is what I can see | 05:51 |
| geek | twylight: thats a start.. | 05:51 |
| ForgeAus | Ubuntu I just hope it will remain so awesome when KDE4 becomes default | 05:51 |
| geek | what kinda issues? | 05:51 |
| _2 | twylight you might want to note that for future refferance ^ | 05:51 |
| twylight | I'm juggling a few different things here... | 05:52 |

| mani213 | what do i open it with | 05:52 |
| geek | twylight: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Template:I_Series would be a start | 05:52 |
| mani213 | when i click the link its asking what i wana use to open it | 05:53 |
| twylight | I figured out the problem 2 | 05:53 |
| mani213 | what should i click | 05:53 |
| mani213 | ? | 05:53 |
| Sixzero | save it to desktop | 05:53 |
| twylight | my installer fuxxored the repos, commenting out every single one | 05:54 |
| mani213 | doesnt let me save | 05:54 |
| mani213 | i can only open it | 05:54 |
| _2 | twylight good half the job of fixing is finding the error | 05:54 |
| mani213 | with a program but its asking which program | 05:54 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: can we see your xorg.conf? type this: kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf then paste that at http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 05:54 |
| twylight | I uncommented them | 05:54 |
| twylight | let's see if I fixed it | 05:54 |
| _2 | twylight have to close any package manager and reopen | 05:55 |
| twylight | restart adept | 05:55 |
| _2 | yep | 05:55 |
| Sixzero | mani213: right-click the link, copy to clipboard, and paste it into your web browser | 05:55 |

| Colonel_Panic | I'm having a little trouble getting java netbeans to work | 05:56 |
| twylight | my kubuntu bar rearranged itself, and a bunch of windows rearranged themselves | 05:56 |
| _2 | !netbeans | 05:57 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about netbeans | 05:57 |
| _2 | !java > Colonel_Panic | 05:57 |
| ubottu | Colonel_Panic, please see my private message | 05:57 |
| twylight | that should repair itself when I restart | 05:57 |
| twylight | kdesu doesn't like my laptop, methinks | 05:58 |
| Colonel_Panic | oh wait... now it's working! | 05:58 |
| _2 | twylight don't forget that any thing you do in kde you have to "apply changes" as a general rule. | 05:58 |
| Colonel_Panic | kool beans | 05:58 |
| twylight | I know | 05:58 |
| _2 | no net beans | 05:58 |
| _2 | :) | 05:59 |
| twylight | I think kubuntu dislikes my little nubmouse device | 05:59 |
| freeRag | net beans ? | 05:59 |
| kreggz | mani213: looks like your video card hasn't been detected | 05:59 |
| mani213 | ye | 05:59 |
| mani213 | so what should i do | 05:59 |
| kreggz | !panic | mani213 | 05:59 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about panic | 05:59 |
| _2 | twylight could be the wrong protocal you might want to check the xorg.conf | 05:59 |
| kreggz | ( | 05:59 |
| mani213 | go to ati main site | 05:59 |
| Sixzero | mani213: did you paste that link into your web browser | 06:00 |
| mani213 | and install the driver? | 06:00 |
| Sixzero | mani213: that was the link to the driver | 06:00 |
| twylight | we have sources | 06:00 |
| twylight | I repaired the issue | 06:00 |
| mani213 | yeye | 06:00 |
| mani213 | its downloading | 06:00 |
| mani213 | to my desktop | 06:00 |
| twylight | next issue, the mouse | 06:00 |
| kreggz | mani213: is your computer new? | 06:01 |
| _2 | !helpersnack | twylight sorry there isn't a fixer snack | 06:01 |
| ubottu | twylight sorry there isn't a fixer snack: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 06:01 |
| Sixzero | when it gets done, tell us and I'll walk you through it. I did it earlier for another dude and it worked like a charm. | 06:01 |
| mani213 | naw 5 years old | 06:01 |
| twylight | thanks | 06:01 |
| twylight | I love linux for this reason | 06:01 |
| twylight | challenges, problems to solve | 06:01 |
| mani213 | kk | 06:01 |
| kreggz | alright im heading off, sounds like Sixzero has a good plan | 06:01 |
| freeRag | linux kicks ass | 06:02 |
| valentinex | _2: what? kubuntu don't support netbeans? | 06:02 |
| _2 | twylight and the freedom to change things without breach of contract. | 06:02 |
| kreggz | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Netbeans | 06:02 |
| twylight | okay, my available packages have jumped from 914 to 18525 | 06:02 |
| twylight | I don't care about contracts | 06:02 |
| twylight | but I hate paying for things :P | 06:02 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: do you have tvout on your card? | 06:03 |
| _2 | valentinex ? Colonel_Panic said he got netbeans working a minute ago and said "cool beans" to which i replied "no, net beans" | 06:03 |
| mani213 | naw naw | 06:03 |
| twylight | as soon as I get back into this system, and it's been almost a year | 06:04 |
| twylight | christ, a whole year | 06:04 |
| twylight | I got arrested for something stupid | 06:04 |
| twylight | been trying to get my laptop back online | 06:04 |
| mefisto__ | mani213: ok, go with Sixzero's suggestion | 06:04 |
| twylight | it was in a very bad way | 06:04 |
| ForgeAus | netbeans isn't necessarily necessary... I mean theres other options for the most part, like eclipse and/or kdevelop for example | 06:04 |
| freeRag | why anyone needs java ? | 06:04 |
| _2 | twylight i hate to know that anything i do will make me a liar. and if you click the "i accept" on a M$ EULA then almost anything you do will make you a liar... so i don't do windows. | 06:04 |
| mani213 | i installed envy so how do i uninstall it now so i dont waste hard drive space? | 06:05 |
| valentinex | _2: :)) ok | 06:05 |
| twylight | EULA is an acronym for Eh? Ur Life Assimilated! | 06:05 |
| DarkriftX | besides lspci whats a command to show all detected devices in the machine? | 06:05 |
| mr---t- | lshw | 06:06 |
| twylight | !fail | 06:06 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about fail | 06:06 |
| _2 | twylight i though it meant "Eew U want me to agree to that Lol All the way to linux" | 06:06 |
| Sixzero | mani213: go in synaptic, search for ngenvy and checked all the green boxes and tell them to uninstall completely | 06:07 |
| twylight | it has various meanings | 06:07 |
| mefisto__ | sudo apt-get remove --purge envyng-core envyng-gtk envyng-qt | 06:08 |
| twylight | Evil Undead Lawyer Attack | 06:08 |
| _2 | !info envyng | 06:08 |
| ubottu | Package envyng does not exist in hardy | 06:08 |
| _2 | !envy | 06:08 |
| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 06:08 |
| Sixzero | mani213: sudo apt-get remove --purge envyng-core envyng-gtk envyng-qt | 06:08 |
| mani213 | ok | 06:08 |
| freeRag | i love the linux EULA namely the USE AT YOUR OWN RISK bit | 06:09 |
| mani213 | i just went to adept manager and removed it | 06:09 |
| DarkriftX | how about the windows UELA: Use at the risk of everyone around you | 06:09 |
| _2 | freeRag i love the fact that it's "your" software. not "you have the right to use OUR software, as long as you do what we say do with it" | 06:10 |
| Sixzero | did it finish downloading mani? | 06:10 |
| twylight | 2 | 06:10 |
| twylight | it's more like everyone's software | 06:10 |
| twylight | linux is the hippie/commie OS, minus the opression. (The drugs are optional) | 06:11 |
| mefisto__ | opression? | 06:11 |

| Colonel_Panic | hehe | 06:34 |
| Daisuke_Ido | freeRag: you're kidding, i hope | 06:34 |
| Colonel_Panic | mono is an attempt to implement the microsoft .NET framework on UNIX | 06:35 |

| ndazza | jussi01: following from yesterday, still no luck with those ATI drivers... I'm performing a clean install to an external HDD and attempting to install the drivers there | 10:45 |
| jussi01 | :( | 10:45 |
| ndazza | jussi01: I've managed to get the latest drivers installed and running, no errors in the xorg log files, but all I get is a blank screen. Tried an older version of the driver, same problem | 10:46 |
| jussi01 | :( | 10:47 |
| ndazza | anyhow, persisting with the fresh install, hopefully the old nvidia drivers are all that's causing me grief | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ndazza: you could try envyng-qt | 10:49 |
| ndazza | ActionParsnip: I looked at that on jussi01's suggestion, but it has no idea what my card is (ATI HD4870) and refuses to install the driver | 10:50 |
| ActionParsnip | i thought you were using nvidia now? | 10:51 |
| ndazza | ActionParsnip: i just jumped from nvidia to ATI | 10:51 |
| ActionParsnip | oh | 10:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ive always avoided ati due to poor support | 10:51 |
| ndazza | hence i think the old (ie previously installed) drivers could be conflicting with the new ATI ones | 10:51 |
| ndazza | I was hoping the new AMD open source strategy might have made a difference | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ndazza: as long as they are not referenced they will just sit | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ndazza: dpkg -l | grep ati | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | maybe | 10:52 |
| ndazza | according to phoronix the 4870 shipped with same-day linux support | 10:52 |
| ndazza | the ati drivers actually install .deb packages | 10:53 |
| ActionParsnip | ndazza: no good for gentoo then eh ;) | 10:53 |
| ActionParsnip | hehe | 10:53 |
| ndazza | hehe | 10:53 |

| ForgeAus | mrxmike you asked a question I was just answering it... | 11:20 |
| mrxmike | i would like to 'beta-test' Intrepid, but if its pretty unusable.......... | 11:20 |

| _-Jay-_ | Hey hey, anyone having trouble with their KDE panels after the last update. Mine are kinda sick | 12:44 |
| [pyro] | _-Jay-_: nope | 12:46 |
| _-Jay-_ | dang, mine just look like they are having refreshing issues | 12:46 |
| [pyro] | u reboot / restart x ? | 12:47 |
| _-Jay-_ | like Programs i have closed still appear in the task bar until another program writes over that spot.. | 12:47 |
| _-Jay-_ | yeah tried both restarts | 12:47 |
| _-Jay-_ | tried re-sizing | 12:48 |
| _-Jay-_ | tried remove and adding the pane's again | 12:48 |
| [pyro] | _-Jay-_: are you using compiz ? | 12:48 |
| _-Jay-_ | [pyro]: Yeah, you think that might be causing me issues? | 12:48 |
| [pyro] | _-Jay-_: try disabling it for starters, see that stops it, that way you can narrow down the problem. | 12:50 |
| _-Jay-_ | fair call, do an x restart now, brb | 12:51 |

| [pyro] | _-Jay-_: im not using compiz atm, it doesnt like my POS video card | 13:04 |
| [pyro] | try playing with compiz's various settings, you may find one of the effects is causing the problem | 13:05 |
| _-Jay-_ | yeah i had the problem for a while my last one kinda broke/burned/melted | 13:05 |
| _-Jay-_ | thanks for the hand [pyro]. | 13:07 |

| Sarge_TJ | Hi, I just switched to Kubuntu. Do I need a separate firewall (firestarter, for example), or is there some sort of built in firewall in Kubuntu? | 13:20 |
| mrxmike | what internet connection type do you have? | 13:20 |
| mrxmike | with what modem? | 13:21 |
| mrxmike | is there a interprid channel guys, or a kubu dev channel? | 13:21 |
| favro | !intrepid | 13:21 |
| ubottu | Alpha Software: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for K/ubuntu 8.10, due October 2008 - #ubuntu+1 for discussion. Kubuntu Intrepid will have KDE 4 as the default Desktop Environment - see https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuIntrepidVersion | Warning lots of breaking software between now and October! | 13:21 |
| mrxmike | 'Warning lots of breaking' | 13:21 |
| mrxmike | thats pretty much right =) | 13:21 |
| favro | !firewall | Sarge_TJ | 13:22 |
| ubottu | Sarge_TJ: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 13:22 |
| Sarge_TJ | I have a WLAN (Buffalo Airstation), no modem, I just plug it in the wall | 13:22 |

| jlido | Can someone help, please? | 13:31 |
| jlido | This is on Hardy. | 13:31 |
| _Bauldrick | favro: a few times, it's only the last one that says invalid | 13:31 |
| jussi01 | jlido: try asking in #kubuntu-kde4 ;) | 13:31 |
| jlido | yeah, but it's affecting KDE3 too | 13:32 |
| favro | _Bauldrick: well the error is invalid module format - looked in their forums? | 13:36 |
| jlido | xorg says it's set the DPI to 96. So there should be no reason to have the font's 1/3rd the height of my screen. | 13:36 |
| jlido | before I installed KDE4 I was having this font problem in kdm, but once I logged in to KDE3 they went back to the correct size. | 13:40 |
| jlido | Which was embarrasing, but at least I could work around it. | 13:40 |

| jonathan_ | hello! | 15:12 |
| jonathan_ | which package do i need to install to use the kernel source?? | 15:12 |
| jonathan_ | i can#t find a package called "kernel-source" | 15:12 |
| jussi01 | !info linux-source | jonathan_ | 15:13 |
| ubottu | jonathan_: linux-source (source: linux-meta): Linux kernel source with Ubuntu patches. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.24.19.21 (hardy), package size 25 kB, installed size 52 kB | 15:13 |
| jonathan_ | thanks :) | 15:14 |
| jussi01 | no probs | 15:14 |
| jonathan_ | hm than i have a big problem :) | 15:14 |
| jonathan_ | or a small but big for me ;) | 15:14 |
| jussi01 | jonathan_: what is it? | 15:14 |
| jonathan_ | i do already have the newest version of this package | 15:14 |
| Githzerai | jonathan_: If u wan't to experiment with linux kernel, you might also wan't to check out the latest version from kernel.org | 15:14 |
| jussi01 | jonathan_: I assume you are compiling a driver or something? | 15:15 |
| jonathan_ | and i get the following error: | 15:15 |
| jonathan_ | ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid."; \ | 15:15 |
| jonathan_ | echo " include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing."; \ | 15:15 |
| jonathan_ | echo " Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it."; \ | 15:15 |
| jonathan_ | yes a webcam-driver | 15:15 |
| jussi01 | jonathan_: hrm, Ive not seen that one. | 15:16 |
| jonathan_ | yes no one did yet ;) | 15:16 |
| Githzerai | jonathan_: for a simle driver(kernel module) you don't need to compile entire kernel, just the module. That's what linux-headers are for ;) | 15:16 |
| jonathan_ | even google doesn't realy know about that | 15:16 |
| jonathan_ | hm, then what do i have to change? i just said "make all" | 15:16 |
| jonathan_ | and that was the error i got | 15:17 |
| jonathan_ | the "make oldconf etc" | 15:17 |
| jonathan_ | did it's job fine but didn't change a thing :/ | 15:17 |
| Githzerai | jonathan_: have u run make config (menuconfig,xconfig) before make ? | 15:17 |
| jonathan_ | no | 15:18 |
| Githzerai | U need to configure kernel before compiling it. | 15:18 |
| jonathan_ | in the same directory as the program i want to compile is within? | 15:18 |
| jonathan_ | and how do i configure kernel? | 15:19 |

| jonathan_ | hm | 15:36 |
| nelsonstreet | brb will try those | 15:36 |
| jonathan_ | the ko file isn't compiled | 15:37 |
| ghostcube | u need the kernel headers ans build-essential and libtool | 15:37 |
| jonathan_ | Which kernel headers? the newest? | 15:37 |
| jonathan_ | and the common? | 15:37 |
| ghostcube | the one u use | 15:37 |
| ghostcube | uname -r | 15:37 |
| Githzerai | jonathan_: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-'uname -r' | 15:38 |
| nelsonstreet | amarok-xine is auto detect | 15:39 |
| jonathan_ | i have linux-headers-2.6.24-19 installed | 15:40 |
| jonathan_ | i think thats the one i should have | 15:41 |
| Githzerai | nelsonstreet: You probably need real audio codec, which is maintained in medibuntu repo, w32codecs or w64codecs package | 15:41 |
| nelsonstreet | yeah it was the w64 codec just found it lol | 15:42 |
| Githzerai | jonathan_: It's the right one, then. Now, all u need is to compile the module from the source package you have. A good source package must have INSTALL and README text files within archive with a instalation process explained, or relevant link to installation procesure tutorial.... | 15:46 |
| jonathan_ | yes they say i only need to run the ./quickcam.sh script to install the messengetr | 15:48 |
| jonathan_ | but then i get the same compiler-error as above | 15:49 |
| jonathan_ | Kernel source is "2.6.24.3" but running kernel is "2.6.24-19-generic" | 15:50 |
| jonathan_ | maybe this could be the error? | 15:51 |

| jonathan_ | hm | 15:55 |
| ghostcube | dpkg -l | grep linux to nopaste.info | 15:56 |
| jonathan_ | how do i change this because i'm sure i have the right one installed ;) | 15:56 |

| ghostcube | hmm ok i looked into that sh file and i dont get where it detecs the old kernel source | 16:01 |
| Githzerai | jonathan_: so u have the right headers , there is something in the instal procedure you're missing. Link to source archive would be most usefull as we are just quessing without it, and i could take ages to hit the right way ;) | 16:02 |
| Githzerai | sorry for my typoes :) | 16:02 |
| ghostcube | Githzerai: he has linux-source and linux-source-2.6.24 | 16:02 |

| Rioting_pacifist | is there a problem with sourceforge svn ssh atm ? im getting an invalid cert is this a mitm attack or just a temporary problem at sf? | 16:10 |
| ghostcube | Githzerai: so sudo make install should do it ? | 16:11 |
| jonathan__ | hm the tip just to type "make install" isn't very helpful ;) | 16:11 |
| ghostcube | jonathan_ it is sudo make install | 16:12 |
| ghostcube | what does it say | 16:12 |
| ghostcube | :D | 16:12 |
| Githzerai | jonathan__: Yes, it shuld, then just load modules as stated below | 16:12 |

| MarcoBXBRO1 | he wants a kubuntu book | 16:50 |
| spawn57 | heh | 16:51 |
| spawn57 | if you go adavnced, you might as well look into debian stuff | 16:51 |
| MarcoBXBRO1 | I told him the documentation is kubi site | 16:51 |
| MarcoBXBRO1 | ok | 16:51 |
| spawn57 | or just read more about stuff done in linux, like apache, joomla etc | 16:51 |

| spawn57 | those work, but they're overviews | 16:56 |

| spawn57 | apt-cache show libmtp | 16:58 |
| Githzerai | eml: Use adept or synaptic, u will have version displayed | 16:58 |
| Rioting_pacifist | MarcoBXBRO1: what do you mean by advanced user? it depends what your looking to do, generally i dont think there is a "kubuntu" book or even a "kde" one there may be some nice debian (or even ubuntu) admin books though | 16:58 |
| MarcoBXBRO1 | kernal | 16:58 |
| eml | Githzerai, Ah true, I was in my terminal already so I just went by it. | 16:59 |

| eml | Ah well that one I did, mistyped it | 17:09 |

| eml | Okay now I've almost got my problem solved, I've installed a version of MTP that can handle my mp3-player. All I need to do now is install amarok WITHOUT libmtp7 because that'll install the wrong version of MTP which means I won't be able to contact my mp3-player from amarok anyways :/ any ideas? | 17:17 |

| Danu | Hi somebody here use kbfx? | 17:22 |
| Githzerai | eml: what exact libmtp u have now ? | 17:23 |

| emilsedgh | Danu: just ask | 17:24 |
| Danu | i can't apply kbfx themes :( | 17:27 |
| Githzerai | eml: by libmtp8 you probably mean 0.3.0 ,and amarok in hardy depends on 7 (0.2.6). I dot think ther is an solution except to compile amarok with libmtp 0.3.0. | 17:31 |
| Githzerai | eml: Perhaps u can explain in more details why u need specificaly libtmp8 ? | 17:32 |
| eml | Githzerai, Yep you're right about that. I need the 0.3.0 version of it beacuse 0.2.6 does not support my mp3-player :-) | 17:33 |
| Githzerai | eml: One, bot absolutely not recomended, solution is to use amarok 1.4.10 from Intrepid, which uses libmtp8.... | 17:34 |
| eml | Someone in #amarok talked about it being in backports, may I ask what backports is? I'll take a look at that then | 17:35 |
| Githzerai | eml: software sources - updates - unsupported updates... I'm on Intrepid, so could'nt check it right away ... ;) | 17:36 |
| eml | Oh there's a repository for intrepid? Can I have the needed lines for my sources.list? | 17:37 |
| Githzerai | eml: As I've said, it's highly not recomended solution. Check backports first ^^^ | 17:38 |

| Darkhound | Hello guys | 19:01 |
| Darkhound | quick question | 19:01 |
| Darkhound | how do I delete a printer that I no longer use from my list | 19:02 |
| Jampiter | ? | 19:02 |
| venik | Dark-- in your browser address, type http://localhost:631/printers/ | 19:02 |
| venik | Then choose printers, and delete printer | 19:02 |
| venik | CUPS through a browser makes it really nice | 19:03 |
| Darkhound | venik: thank you so very muc | 19:06 |
| venik | urwc | 19:06 |
| venik | Why do I have TWO smb.conf ? One in /etc/samba/ and the other in usr/share/samba/ ? | 19:09 |
| Jampiter | Gaah.. I want to edit this damn file as root and it's not letting me! How do I make it work?? | 19:09 |
| venik | My favorite way is to use Krusader in root mode | 19:09 |
| venik | it has a nice built in editor | 19:09 |
| Jampiter | What's Krusader? | 19:10 |
| venik | a very nice file manager that emulates the Norton COmmander | 19:10 |
| Jampiter | Like Midnight Commander? | 19:10 |
| venik | yes | 19:10 |
| Jampiter | So how do I make that work? | 19:10 |
| venik | of course u can also type: sudo kate /,,,,filename. | 19:11 |
| venik | but I highly recommand krusader | 19:11 |
| venik | sudo aptitude install krusader | 19:11 |
| Jampiter | Ok, I'll give that a go | 19:12 |
| Jampiter | thanks :) | 19:12 |
| venik | np | 19:12 |
| venik | krusader also has a nice built-in ftp client and fish client, and can be used to synchronize directories, even across the network | 19:13 |

| venik | I also had a LOT of problems with kde4.1 | 19:17 |
| jaakkome | frybye, use kde 3 :] | 19:17 |

| venik | and reboot or restart the session | 19:19 |
| frybye | venik.. ok will tr5y tomorrow.. in bed now with eeepc and gnome-... | 19:19 |
| Darkhound | guys | 19:20 |
| Darkhound | how good support does kubuntu have for EPSON ALL in One devices? | 19:20 |
| venik | fry-- how good is eeepc with gnome? | 19:20 |
| jaakkome | you can also backup the .kde4 and move some stuff back after you get it to work, if you don't want to lose all your settings | 19:20 |

| metehan | how can i install firefox 3 | 20:58 |
| jaakkome | metehan, with Adept Manager | 20:59 |
| CoJaBo-Eee | metehan: I think its Adept Manager, thats what I used | 20:59 |
| metehan | ok im looking | 20:59 |

| metehan | ok so how can i play world of warcraft on kubuntu | 21:01 |

| metehan | so i have a network and i download another computer on windows on my wow folder | 21:03 |
| metehan | how can i do that? | 21:03 |
| jaakkome | if the folder is shared on the windows machine, you can access it through system menu > remote places > samba shares | 21:04 |
| metehan | im checking | 21:06 |
| jaakkome | although I think you need to reinstall the game from cd:s under wine to get it working | 21:07 |
| joel_ | metehan- learn the command line | 21:07 |
| joel_ | things may be easier with adept but not as good | 21:07 |
| metehan | adept its working | 21:08 |
| metehan | firefox installed and i using that | 21:08 |
| metehan | its reeally nice | 21:08 |
| joel_ | I know, it'll work | 21:08 |
| jaakkome | adept is good if it does what you need | 21:08 |

| jaakkome | install kde4-desktop with adept | 21:15 |
| CoJaBo-Eee | There were directions for upgrading to 4.1.1 on the kubuntu homepage. | 21:15 |
| jaakkome | metehan, to get wow to work, you need to first install wine and then install wow from cd:s | 21:16 |
| metehan | ok downloading now | 21:16 |
| metehan | ok i get the wine | 21:16 |

| Ubuntu392944 | Resistol: Did you try with different brand media? Ive never had a problem with the Sony ones I was using, I burned Backtrack, TinyMe, Ubuntu, PCLinuxOS and others and only Kubuntu ISO gave me problems, I tried a few different ones and it finally worked (none of the disc are scratched they are brand new).

| Carla1989 | Hello. Is there a channel for erc (emacs based IRC) support? | 21:44 |
| jaakkome | ofv, I have a similiar problem on my laptop. My problem is connected to the proprietary ati drivers | 21:45 |
| ofv | jaakkome: bingo! I have the propietary ati drivers too. | 21:45 |
| penlost | i have tried downloading and installing flash but it did not help | 21:46 |
| jaakkome | If it is the same problem, I don't think there's much you can do about it | 21:46 |
| ofv | Carla1989: take a look at http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/EmacsIRCClient | 21:46 |
| ForgeAus | wow Google Android is based on Linux :) | 21:47 |
| ofv | How do you life with it? The only "solution" for me is pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del | 21:47 |
| ForgeAus | odd that they have webkit libraries there but havn't made a gui for Chrome on Linux yet! | 21:47 |
| ofv | Carla1989: there is a mailing list, but not an irc channel. Try on #emacs. | 21:47 |
| Carla1989 | tks ofv. | 21:48 |
| ForgeAus | I think they're still trying to figure what to use for it (ie gtk, custom or something else) | 21:48 |
| jaakkome | well, it's a laptop with a busted battery, so I just shut down every time I have to move it anyways :] | 21:48 |
| ForgeAus | whatever the case I doubt there'll be a ChromeQT .... but you never know... | 21:48 |
| jaakkome | but you should try a different video driver to confirm that it's the same problem at least | 21:49 |
| ForgeAus | hehe if Google make a custom toolkit would that make them Widgles? or Goodgets? | 21:49 |
| ofv | This started after installing the ATI propietary driver, so it seems the culprit. | 21:49 |
| jaakkome | well it was filed as a known bug against the drivers and I haven't heard of a workaround... damn ati | 21:50 |
| ofv | jaakkome: do you remember the bug id? | 21:51 |
| jaakkome | no, been a while since I looked at that | 21:52 |
| ofv | jaakkome: okay, thanks anyways. | 21:52 |
| Ubuntu392944 | Does Kubuntu not have a central configuration center like other distros, except for the "System Settings" icon? | 21:54 |
| ForgeAus | iit still has kcontrol | 21:55 |
| ForgeAus | although system settings is kinda like a kcontrol wrapper provides lots of kcontrol modules and/or custom ones, etc... | 21:56 |
| Ubuntu392944 | I guess kcontrol is somewhat useful | 21:57 |
| ForgeAus | is there something else you were referring to? | 21:58 |
| ForgeAus | what exactly was it you were looking to configure? | 21:58 |
| Ubuntu392944 | ForgeAus: I have a previous linux distro installed, and I want Kubuntu to mount that drives /home as my default /home, im trying to do this possibly thru "Disk & Filesystems" using kcontrol now | 21:59 |
