| ubuntu__ | Why? You could certanly sell that one and buy an older but compatable one. | 00:23 |

| kyle__ | so...if i could install a newer/older version of my driver and make kubuntu work with it................i would be all good? | 00:23 |

| dr_willis | ryan_, why are you installing it that way? | 00:25 |
| ubuntu__ | Oh, right. Bit it was inside a machine, so it's jumper should be alredy be set to what I want. | 00:25 |
| kyle__ | i tryed to install "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter" but it said the package couldnt be found | 00:25 |
| ryan_ | then i issued sudo chmod +x sudo chmod +x flashplayer-installer | 00:25 |
| DaSkreech | ryan_: use the one from ubuntu | 00:25 |

| dr_willis | !b43 | 00:26 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about b43 | 00:26 |
| dr_willis | kyle__, run 'kdesudo jockey-kde' and use that tool to install the drivers | 00:27 |
| dr_willis | or launch it from the menus, wheever its at in the menus now | 00:27 |
| ryan_ | the installer from the adobe website and the flashplugin-nonfree seemed to work fine | 00:28 |
| ubuntu__ | Anyone know how I turn on compiz on the live thing? I always wanted to see the cube thing go. | 00:28 |
| ryan_ | but firefox couldnt still see the flashplugin | 00:28 |
| dr_willis | I just install kubuntu-restricted-extras and it grabs flash for me.. as for adobe.. I think i get that from the medibuntu repos | 00:28 |

| tarvid | can I run dolp[hin as root? | 00:30 |
| dr_willis | DONT run it as root. | 00:30 |
| dr_willis | what are you trying to share? | 00:31 |
| tarvid | i mounted sda5 and would like to back up /boot and /var/www and a postgresql database | 00:31 |
| dr_willis | and what does this have to do with samba shares then? YOu are backing up files to a local drive? | 00:32 |
| ryan_ | yeah | 00:32 |
| tarvid | I am trying to back up to another Ubuntu box | 00:32 |
| * dr_willis is missing somthing here then.... | 00:32 | |
| tarvid | that has an appropriate dvd burner | 00:33 |
| dr_willis | You have your data files on /dev/sda5 that you wish to archive? | 00:33 |
| tarvid | Yes | 00:33 |
| tarvid | It was the root partition until an upgrade resulted in a kernel panic | 00:33 |
| dr_willis | so you took the HD from onemachine and plugged it into another machine that has a DVD burner? | 00:34 |
| tarvid | No the client installed Intrepid again on sda8 and sda9 | 00:34 |
| tarvid | that install boots and runs fine | 00:34 |
| tarvid | the old install on sda5 does not boot. | 00:35 |
| dr_willis | SO you have 2 machines.. networked... and you got files on machine 1, that you want to access from machine 2, ? | 00:35 |
| tarvid | I am trying to obey the dictum to backup first | 00:35 |
| tarvid | they have an application apache+postgresql+? that manages a clinic | 00:35 |
| Nibbler` | helo there, i've upgraded my kde to the 4.2beta, but many stuff are going wring, i would like to revert to the stable one, how can I do that ? | 00:36 |
| * dr_willis thinks we need to get a Picture drawn Up of the setup... im confused as to too many things... | 00:36 | |
| * dr_willis thinks the issue is a 'user' trying to right click/share a system directory.. that would be a big security issue... | 00:37 | |
| tarvid | sda1 windows nt | 00:38 |
| tarvid | sda2 extended | 00:38 |
| tarvid | sda5 old kubuntu Intrepid / | 00:38 |
| tarvid | sda6 swap | 00:38 |
| tarvid | sda7 home | 00:38 |
| tarvid | sda8 new kubuntu / | 00:38 |
| tarvid | sda9 swap | 00:38 |
| tarvid | this user would very much like to share / | 00:39 |
| tarvid | it is a temporary measure to backup the files before I make things worse | 00:39 |
| tarvid | booting sda5 fails but that is the partition which has the ap[plication and data | 00:40 |
| tarvid | guessing sda5 /boot is corrupt | 00:41 |
| dr_willis | if you want to share a system directory, instead of a users own directory in their home dir.. You will most likely need to edit the /etc/smb.conf and setup the share manually | 00:42 |
| dr_willis | and of course install the samba server | 00:42 |
| cuznt | my linksys router did not work out of the box kde i could not bring up its page either | 00:43 |
| tarvid | makes sense | 00:43 |
| dr_willis | a user is not going to be able to 'right click and share' a system dir. im not even sure running a file server as root would allow it either | 00:43 |
| dr_willis | IF this is a linux to linux setup. You may want to use NFS instead of samba also.. | 00:43 |

| DaSkreech | And it's a second party repo :) | 01:10 |
| Nibbler` | haaa thanks DaSkreech all works fine now :) | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | Nibbler`: There we go | 01:10 |
| Nibbler` | i was wondering about something, i setup my screen to turn off after 20min of inactivity, but only the screen saver turn in, the screens stays on all the time, anyone got the same problem ? | 01:11 |
| keres | DaSkreech: GTK Radiant is really dodgy. The window drags are delayed and doesn´t seem stable. What´s up? | 01:13 |
| hellhound_ | I am having trouble installing the opensyncutils package using adept. I get the error "Download Failed" and "APT Error. Context: Package download failed, unable to correct problems, you held broken packages./" | 01:13 |
| DaSkreech | Nibbler`: yeah I don't know but I think that it's plasma that blocks it | 01:14 |
| DaSkreech | I know that if I kill plasma my screen turns off... | 01:14 |
| DaSkreech | keres: Dunno | 01:14 |
| keres | I am not finding kde to be as stable as gnome. | 01:24 |
| keres | maybe it is just me though | 01:24 |
| keres | is this true? | 01:24 |
| genii | keres: KDE versions are currently in transition | 01:24 |
| keres | genii: what does this mean? | 01:25 |
| genii | keres: It means that the kde4 series (new) is still working out the bugs | 01:26 |
| DaSkreech | keres: KDE is at version 1 Gnome is at version 26 | 01:26 |
| keres | oh | 01:26 |
| DaSkreech | One of them has had more time to get out bugs :) | 01:26 |
| * DaSkreech throws a tikker parade if you guess which one | 01:27 | |
| keres | do you find kde better? | 01:27 |
| dr_willis | kde 4.X is still very much an infant. :P | 01:27 |
| DaSkreech | Well yeah That's why I hang out in this room :) | 01:27 |
| keres | why do you like kde more? | 01:27 |
| DaSkreech | In terms of stability I guess not but Gnome seems stable in terms of not crashing but also features | 01:28 |
| DaSkreech | They do very little with each new release | 01:28 |
| DaSkreech | KDE just works much better together and the way they build stuff is great | 01:28 |
| Nibbler` | and KDE got amarok :p | 01:28 |
| DaSkreech | If kate gets a new feature a half dozen other applications get it instantly as well | 01:28 |
| DaSkreech | You can run amarok in Gnom | 01:29 |
| DaSkreech | e | 01:29 |
| genii | KDE has Kaffeine too | 01:29 |
| Nibbler` | yeah but ... | 01:29 |
| Nibbler` | not the same :D | 01:29 |
| DaSkreech | KIO slaves are really good | 01:29 |
| Nibbler` | and KDE4 is pretty cute too | 01:29 |
| DaSkreech | Well yeah that's my point | 01:29 |
| DaSkreech | KDE stuff just works really well with each other | 01:29 |
| DaSkreech | and outside of having a fairly crappy Web browser pretty much everything you need ships with KDE | 01:30 |
| Nibbler` | and they are all based on Qt, which is quite good | 01:30 |
| DaSkreech | Gnome needs a lot of outside apps to be comfy | 01:30 |
| * genii waits for firefox-qt | 01:30 | |
| DaSkreech | genii: That's a mozilla effort? | 01:30 |
| keres | firefox works on kde here | 01:30 |
| genii | DaSkreech: Not sure, but there's been work on it | 01:30 |
| keres | just installed it :S | 01:30 |
| Nibbler` | genii are they gonna come with a qt version ? O_o | 01:30 |
| DaSkreech | Yeah it does but it doesn't work well with KDE :) | 01:30 |
| Nibbler` | keres > sure but that ugly, i mean mine looks crap | 01:30 |
| DaSkreech | doesn't really work that well with Gnome either so meh | 01:31 |
| genii | Nibbler`: Hopefully | 01:31 |
| DaSkreech | Firefox is a Windows application | 01:31 |
| Nibbler` | u can get some theme and stuff, but i fond those buggy | 01:31 |
| Nibbler` | find* | 01:31 |
| genii | Also I miss gkrellm | 01:31 |
| Nibbler` | i wonder what's the best browser on KDE | 01:31 |
| DaSkreech | What now? | 01:31 |
| Nibbler` | i don't like konqueror so much | 01:31 |
| DaSkreech | auroa probably | 01:31 |
| Nibbler` | auroa enevr herd of it | 01:31 |
| DaSkreech | webkit browser | 01:32 |
| genii | I wonder if anyone's working on qtrellm | 01:32 |
| DaSkreech | well shell | 01:32 |
| DaSkreech | not really a "browser browser" | 01:32 |
| DaSkreech | genii: What's that? | 01:32 |

| stdin | because it's not an official derivative | 01:45 |

| DaSkreech | keres: sorry try just kuser | 02:09 |
| Ahmuck | k, i found the problem. for some reason the computer thinks that the limit of the desktop is way up in the sky. is there a way to set the outside limits to the outside limits of the screeen ? | 02:09 |
| Ich | KDE 4 sure is pretty... but then, what is the point of visual chrome anyway? | 02:09 |
| Ich | I like that the desktop is actually a moveable widget-I neved liked desktops. | 02:09 |
| Ryunix | halp how do i add rwx permissions for my user to a sudo file ? | 02:11 |
| genii | Ryunix: You can't use the command "sudo" ? | 02:12 |
| DaSkreech | Ryunix: What are you trying to do? | 02:13 |
| Ryunix | genii its for a game in usr/local | 02:13 |
| Ryunix | and i dont like game dirs in home | 02:14 |
| genii | Thats's not answering the question ... | 02:14 |
| Ryunix | genni i cant use sudo everytime i want to run a game | 02:14 |
| genii | Ryunix: Why not? It's only 4 extra letters to type | 02:15 |
| Ryunix | what i am trying to do is add read write and execute permissions to my user alongside root | 02:15 |
| Ryunix | genii so u recommend running online games in root ? | 02:15 |
| DaSkreech | Ryunix: Why do you need to run it as root? | 02:16 |
| genii | Ryunix: At any rate, what you can do is visudo and add a command alias for the game binary and allow your username to run it with sudo without password | 02:16 |
| Ryunix | daskreech: for the lols | 02:16 |
| Ahmuck | got it fixed. nm | 02:16 |
| genii | man sudoers is somewhat interesting reading | 02:16 |
| wesley__ | how do i update clamav? | 02:16 |
| DaSkreech | Why do you need w for an executable? | 02:17 |
| genii | Ryunix: To answer your earlier Q I don't recommend running anything in root | 02:17 |
| Ryunix | genii: i remember it was a chmod command but that was long ago and i didnt memorize it | 02:17 |
| Ryunix | is it 775 or 777? or 755? | 02:17 |
| kalorin | does anyone know how to flash a bios under linux? | 02:17 |
| kalorin | or is it even possible, I know most of them are DOS or windows utilities | 02:18 |
| DaSkreech | Ryunix: Seriously whatever you are doigng it sounds wrong | 02:18 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as Ich | ||
| Ryunix | daskreech do you play games ? if so are they located in usr/local/games ? if so are they owned by root ? | 02:19 |
| Ich | It crashed again, this time on a diffrent, unrelated hard drive. I don't think its the drive. | 02:19 |
| DaSkreech | That has nothing to do with anything | 02:19 |
| DaSkreech | almost all commands are owned by root | 02:19 |
| kalorin | Ich, 8.10? | 02:19 |
| Ich | Yeah. | 02:19 |
| kalorin | I've been having some minor irratating issues with it | 02:19 |
| Ryunix | yeh i wqanna play games and i want the game directory to only have permissions for my user and root | 02:19 |
| kalorin | had it lock a couple of times | 02:20 |
| Ich | I tried heron LTS, same thing happened. | 02:20 |
| === kurumin is now known as sample | ||
| Ich | Its a conspiricy :( | 02:20 |
| DaSkreech | Ryunix: then you should be changing the owner not the permissions | 02:20 |
| kalorin | I was running 7.10 fine | 02:20 |
| kalorin | it's a core2 adn I tried 64bit and it was a mess for me | 02:20 |
| kalorin | really ran into issues | 02:20 |
| DaSkreech | Ryunix: and that's kinda mean :) | 02:20 |
| genii | Ryunix: In sudoers: Cmnd_AliasKILL = /usr/bin/kill | 02:21 |
| kalorin | so i dropped back to 32bit cause it worked great with 32bit in 7.10 and I've been having minor issues since | 02:21 |
| genii | nah | 02:21 |
| kalorin | just odd stuff | 02:21 |
| Ich | I was running 8.06 poorly. So I decided to upgrade. I commit to partitions and kerblam. | 02:21 |
| kalorin | firefox lockin the machine completely | 02:21 |
| Ryunix | daskreech but that the question was is it possible to have permission for 2 users? or in a group | 02:21 |
| Ich | kalor, is your PC 64 or just 32 bit? | 02:21 |
| kalorin | it's a core2 so it's 64 | 02:21 |
| DaSkreech | For root you don't need permissions | 02:21 |
| kalorin | 4gb of ram | 02:21 |
| kalorin | making me wonder if the board is having issues with the ram or something | 02:22 |
| Ich | 4gb is way under the limit for 64 bit | 02:22 |
| kalorin | or a bios issue, so I was trying to figure out what to do to flash the bios without a bootable floppy (or a floppy at all) | 02:22 |
| Ich | and its the limit for 32 | 02:22 |
| kalorin | well sure | 02:22 |
| DaSkreech | and yeah you can manufacture a wide range of stuff with user and group permissions | 02:22 |
| kalorin | but if you've got a bad chip that's up in the higher range it's possible you just never got up there much and so it never hit it | 02:22 |
| Ich | What? | 02:23 |
| kalorin | or it's in the address space that's under the graphics cards space in 32bit but under 64 it's not | 02:23 |
| === geek is now known as Guest25986 | ||
| kalorin | so you get up there and whack, bad address blows up machine | 02:23 |
| keres | Is there like a bandwidth meter widget for download anywhere? | 02:23 |
| genii | Ryunix: In sudoers: Cmnd_Alias GAME = /usr/local/games/* then: yourusername ALL = NOPASSWD: GAMES | 02:23 |
| kalorin | I'd like to see a CPU monitor for 8.10 | 02:23 |

| Ich | Don't we need open source games first? | 02:35 |
| Ryunix | hehe | 02:35 |
| Ich | (Yes, I know, AA, OA, Nexuiz) | 02:35 |
| Ryunix | port linux games to linux arm | 02:35 |
| Ich | beep | 02:35 |
| Ich | Yeah, but I know of just three really good games. | 02:36 |
| Ich | Name some more and I'll play'em. | 02:36 |
| Ich | (exactly) | 02:36 |
| Ryunix | erm .. | 02:36 |
| Ich | Okay. So you'll have a wide array of games to play on this 'pandora'. | 02:37 |
| Ich | The three I mentioned are all FPSs. I personally can't stand those unless I have an anolog stick or a mouse. Has the pandora got one of those? | 02:37 |
| Ryunix | ich but i think the whole " fastest handheld in the world " may convince a few high resource developers to code for the pandora | 02:37 |
| Ryunix | check the site | 02:37 |
| Ich | Sure it will. | 02:38 |
| Ryunix | check the forums | 02:38 |
| Ich | Because companies with monopolies maintain them by competeing. | 02:38 |
| Ich | Thats how it... works. | 02:38 |
| Ich | Right? | 02:38 |
| Ich | (oligopoly, fine, but same principal) | 02:38 |
| Ich | Look, there'll be a few good games. If its cheap I may actually buy one, but only 'cause I wanna write my own games for it. | 02:39 |
| Ich | I don't see "real" customers going for it. | 02:39 |
| Ryunix | a few closed source devs have shown interest tho | 02:39 |
| Ich | Id software, who are the other ones? | 02:39 |
| Ryunix | ich your right its more for linux savvy people | 02:39 |
| Ryunix | ich the forums have more info | 02:40 |
| Ich | If I had the money for a handheld, I'd spend it on a normal PC. Also, is it a phone? | 02:40 |
| faileas | Ich: id open sources all its engines eventually.. so their stuff runs on anything that they can | 02:40 |
| Ich | Can I call people? Can I dial someone and then telefrag them? | 02:40 |
| faileas | Ich: if you wanted an open source phone, get the android dev kit, or openmoko | 02:40 |
| Ich | I wanna know! :) | 02:40 |
| faileas | no ;p | 02:41 |
| Ich | I don't even want a land line phone, let alone one of those newfangled handhelds. | 02:41 |
| * faileas wants the former ;p | 02:41 | |
| Ich | I'm happy with my telegraph, TYVM. | 02:41 |
| faileas | full keyboard, multi touch screen, might run ubuntu... | 02:41 |
| Ryunix | ich but this is the size of a ds and has 256mb ram and cortex a8. sure your laptop will be faster but the pandora can fit in your pocket and will never overheat | 02:42 |
| Ich | You can run ubuntu on a fridge... but why? Why do you need ubuntu on a handheld | 02:42 |
| * genii reprograms his Neo to understand Morse Code | 02:42 | |
| Ryunix | ich its not a phone | 02:42 |
| Ich | Actually, thats about as good as my laptop :( | 02:42 |
| Ich | Except it does overheat-I "liquid cool" it with bags of ice. | 02:42 |
| Ryunix | XD | 02:43 |
| Ich | High tech stuff. | 02:43 |
| Ryunix | im so very tired but that made me laugh | 02:43 |
| Ich | Its so funny 'cause its true. | 02:43 |
| Ich | I started lagging playing starcraft (1998, blizzard entertainment) got kinda pissed, and thought "well, if the fans can't do it, I guess I need liquid cooling". | 02:44 |
| Ich | And went into the freezer. | 02:44 |

| faileas | Ich: well mainly package management, availability of packages, and such | 02:45 |
| Ich | (Blizzard is known for it's ingenious network code) | 02:45 |
| Ich | So are you real people, or is this just a clever excuse for someone to turing test a robot? | 02:46 |
| Ryunix | i gave up on starcraft leagues because i knew i was never going to be as good as the koreans | 02:46 |
| Ich | I gave up on starcraft because I'd need copious amounts of caffine to play as fast as those people. | 02:46 |
| Ich | I played UMS games. | 02:46 |
| Ich | The, one magical day, it just started crashing on Bnet login. | 02:47 |
| Ich | I think I may have accidentally uninstalled some font or something. | 02:47 |
| Ich | Yeah. | 02:47 |
| Ryunix | have you seen the televised competitions they have in korea? O.O wtf chicks screaming, thousands of fans cheering WTF!!! | 02:47 |
| Ich | Would it be nutty to just use the live CD for everyday use on one machine | 02:47 |
| Ich | because it is misbehaveing when you try to actually install it? | 02:48 |
| Ich | Also, am I a total failure, and should I just crawl back to Gates cap in hand? | 02:48 |
| faileas | Ich: no no and no | 02:48 |
| arkygeek | Ich: there is a little trick you can use whereby you boot each time off the iso of the livecd... advantage being speed compared to running off a cd... | 02:49 |
| Ich | Good, 'cause Windows XP 64 costs like a hundred bucks. | 02:49 |
| faileas | Ich: however finding out whats causing the problem might be a good idea | 02:49 |
| faileas | as would maybe using alternate installer to install | 02:49 |
| Ich | How would I go about doing that? | 02:49 |
| * Ryunix frowns at ich for even thinking of xp | 02:50 | |
| faileas | lol | 02:50 |
| faileas | least he wasn't thinking of vista ;) | 02:50 |
| genii | Ich: I just bought a copy of x64 Pro and it was like $180-something. | 02:50 |
| Ich | Thats sad. | 02:50 |
| genii | I agree | 02:50 |
| Ich | I think now that its out of print | 02:50 |
| Ich | its our duty to copy it, copyright be damned. | 02:51 |
| Ich | Or just use WINE. | 02:51 |
| faileas | lol | 02:51 |
| Ich | I've found WINE is a great way to ween you off windows programs... | 02:51 |
| * faileas still has a win 2k box | 02:51 | |
| genii | I installed it into a 64bit VMWare machine, anyhow | 02:51 |
| Ich | Only reason to use winfails would be for games. | 02:51 |
| Ryunix | genii: why when there are pirates who sail the seven seas to get you a free copy ? | 02:52 |
| * mister-tea loves windows ...it's good for business | 02:52 | |
| Ich | Ask the somalis. | 02:52 |
| Ich | They know all about piracy >_> | 02:52 |
| genii | Ryunix: I need it for the work I do | 02:52 |
| Ich | What work do you do with windows? | 02:52 |
| faileas | Ich: that box has wierd problems with ubuntu, debian is kinda not up to date enough for my liking, and i happened to have a copy around. it works well enough ;p | 02:52 |
| faileas | main box is kubuntu though | 02:52 |
| genii | Ich: Basically 3dMax stuff | 02:53 |
| Ich | What work do you do with wondows? | 02:53 |
| Ryunix | genii: yeah and these sailing pirates have got tons of copies you can download from their ships | 02:53 |
| Ryunix | for free | 02:53 |
| Ich | What, they don't let you use blender? | 02:53 |
| Ich | ARE THEN H4X8RZ!!???111 (humor) | 02:53 |
| genii | Ich: POVRay is good but not good enough, unfortunately. So we create in 3dMax, import to .pov and render on linux | 02:54 |
| faileas | genii: would 3d max work without a 3d card? o0 | 02:55 |
| Ich | Can a turing machine emulate a turing machine? | 02:55 |
| Ich | So, in closeing... what the f&*% should I do about not being able to install? | 02:55 |
| genii | faileas: It doesn't care if your card is 3d or not | 02:56 |

| duddie | I need help getting my Limewire installed, I attempted to install, but can't find Limewire anywhere. | 06:43 |
| zoggy | duddie: there's an open source equivalent on kubuntu called apollon | 06:50 |
| zoggy | apt:apollon | 06:50 |
| bazhang | !frostwire | 06:51 |
| ubottu | frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire. For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire | 06:51 |

| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 06:51 |
| zoggy | haha | 06:52 |
| zoggy | bazhang: is frostwire, in your opinion better than apollon? | 06:55 |
| duddie | frostwire,, ok, I will give it a try. | 06:56 |
| duddie | brb | 06:56 |
| bazhang | !info apollon | 06:56 |
| ubottu | apollon (source: apollon): KDE-based interface to the giFT file-sharing system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.2.1-2 (intrepid), package size 442 kB, installed size 1664 kB | 06:56 |
| bazhang | zoggy, they are not the same thing | 06:56 |
| zoggy | bazhang: according to my research, they sound similar.... here's a sentence about apollon: | 07:00 |
| zoggy | "Apollon is an easy to use peer to peer client for the KDE Desktop. It supports the Gnutella, OpenFT.." | 07:00 |
| zoggy | "...and FastTrack networks. This makes installing applications like Limewire redundant" | 07:01 |
| bazhang | zoggy, never used either of them; frostwire is quite similar to limewire apparently though | 07:02 |

| comedit | PSiL0: install synaptic and use that | 09:40 |
| PSiL0 | i did | 09:40 |
| ActionParsnip | PSiL0: or use apt, nice and easy | 09:40 |
| PSiL0 | i usually use synaptic to remove packages, I don't know why I used adept instead to remove ooo 3.0 | 09:40 |

| Mamarok | arkygeek: it's Kubuntu 8.10, .10 being the month of release | 09:48 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek: what updates did you make? And wich version of KDE 4? | 09:48 |
| arkygeek | whatever version was on the disk i guess | 09:48 |
| arkygeek | i enabled the backports. | 09:49 |
| PSiL0 | Mamarok: Yeah, I heard rumblings about Adept not being ready for primetime yet. But credit the person who had to build a new package manager from scratch | 09:49 |
| arkygeek | just thought of that. crap. | 09:49 |
| PSiL0 | woohoo, openoffice 3 installed.. | 09:50 |
| arkygeek | kernel 2.6.27.9 | 09:50 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek: no, that shouldn't be a problem, it simply depends on what updates you made, you didn't do any new package installs, didn't you? | 09:50 |
| PSiL0 | I shall never forsake cli again | 09:50 |
| Mamarok | PSiL0: +1 :) | 09:51 |
| ActionParsnip | what is the difference betwenn apt-get and aptitude | 09:51 |
| PSiL0 | now I can get back to my data quantification... | 09:51 |
| arkygeek | yes actually.... I installed some things to set up a dev environment as per the qgis.org web site . do you want to see the url? | 09:51 |
| Mamarok | ActionParsnip: aptitude resumes many different apt-something tools | 09:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Mamarok: resumes? | 09:52 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek: so you added packages from the outside? | 09:52 |
| arkygeek | no no | 09:52 |
| Mamarok | ActionParsnip: pulls together | 09:52 |
| arkygeek | Mamarok: nothing added from the outside | 09:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Mamarok: you lost me | 09:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Mamarok: apt-get installs all deps for an app and can remove orphaned deps. Surely they both do that | 09:53 |
| arkygeek | Mamarok: http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/BuildingFromSource#head-8e1e1ff25b5e9f587393e0592c0ff34891ec07cc | 09:54 |
| Mamarok | ActionParsnip: did you try aptitude? | 09:55 |
| Mamarok | you can use apt-cache search, etc in the same app | 09:56 |
| Mamarok | else, you have to type every command separately | 09:56 |
| PSiL0 | hmmm, I hope adept's botched openoffice upgrade was just a one-off, or there will be quite a few angry people coming in here tomorrow | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Mamarok: ive always used apt-get | 09:57 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek: why did you build from source? | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Mamarok: i dont get why there are so many package handlers | 09:57 |
| Mamarok | ActionParsnip: give aptitude a try, you'll see :) | 09:57 |

| ActionParsnip | Mamarok: i dont like gui installers, they take forever | 09:58 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek: also, your kernel is a bit outdated | 09:58 |
| Mamarok | ActionParsnip: it's not GUI :) | 09:59 |
| arkygeek | Mamarok: i built because i do a lot of testing for them | 09:59 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek: you should use the Qt4 packages that come with your distribution... | 10:00 |
| arkygeek | Mamarok: i am trying to set up wy wifi from cli | 10:00 |

| ActionParsnip | arkygeek: if you set static ip, can you ping your dhcp server? | 10:03 |
| pronoy | ActionParsnip: i downloaded the amarok 1.98 tar.gz but i can't install it ? how do i install it ? | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: tar zxvf <file> | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: then compile by reading the readme | 10:04 |
| pronoy | ok | 10:04 |
| pronoy | i'll get back to youi | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: or you can install from repo | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy:once you have compiled, i'd suggest making a deb | 10:05 |
| pronoy | ActionParsnip: the repo isnt' there on the site | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: so uninstallation is easier | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: sudo apt-get install amarok | 10:05 |
| PSiL0 | ActionParsnip: I think that will install 1.4.x if I am not mistaken | 10:06 |
| Mamarok | pronoy: why don't you use the existing package? | 10:06 |
| pronoy | ActionParsnip: amarok 2 is beta version......i just get 1.4 when i install it using apt get | 10:06 |
| Mamarok | there is a special repo for it: | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: true, well then you'll need to compile | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | pronoy: or use neon | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | !neon | 10:07 |
| ubottu | The Neon Project provides daily Amarok and KDE 4 trunk builds as packages for Kubuntu | See http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/User:Apachelogger/Project_Neon and http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/User:Apachelogger/Project_Neon/KDE/Info for more | Support in #amarok.neon | 10:07 |
| PSiL0 | http://www.kubuntu.org/news/amarok-2-rc-1 | 10:07 |
| arkygeek | ActionParsnip: no i cant | 10:07 |
| PSiL0 | add the appropriate repo | 10:07 |
| Mamarok | pronoy: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main | 10:07 |
| PSiL0 | sudo apt-get install amarok-kde4 | 10:07 |
| Mamarok | make sure to unistall amarok 1.4.x first though! | 10:07 |
| PSiL0 | and that too! | 10:07 |
| pronoy | Mamarok: does this repo include amarok 1.98 | 10:08 |
| arkygeek | aarrghhh | 10:08 |
| Mamarok | pronoy: yes, 1.98 == RC1 | 10:08 |
| pronoy | PSiL0: dis just gives the tar file | 10:08 |
| PSiL0 | add "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main" to your /etc/apt/sources.list file | 10:10 |
| PSiL0 | then sudo apt-get install amarok-kde4 | 10:10 |
| PSiL0 | that i what I did when trying out 1.98 a couple weeks ago | 10:10 |
| pronoy | PSiL0: is amarok 2 better ? | 10:11 |
| PSiL0 | I didn't have time to really fiddle around with it, so now I'm back on 1.4.2 | 10:11 |
| PSiL0 | pronoy: I don't know, I think it is a judgment call | 10:11 |
| PSiL0 | I didn't notice anything vastly different between the two when it came to performance.. | 10:12 |
| pronoy | PSiL0: yeah ok :) | 10:12 |
| PSiL0 | I missed having a context script fetching album reviews and placing them in the music tab | 10:13 |
| pronoy | PSiL0: is this version stable ? | 10:13 |
| Mamarok | PSiL0: 1.4.2??? | 10:13 |
| PSiL0 | I heard amarok 2 has something like that, but I'll revisit it. | 10:13 |
| Mamarok | that is like 3 years old!!! | 10:13 |
| PSiL0 | whoops | 10:13 |
| PSiL0 | 1.4.10 | 10:13 |
| PSiL0 | sorry | 10:13 |
| Mamarok | :) | 10:14 |
| Mamarok | pronoy: Amarok 2 is new and different | 10:14 |
| pronoy | Marmarok: ok......so its unstable :) | 10:14 |
| PSiL0 | Actually, you are probably the person I should ask. Is it possible to have the comments field or any custom field show up in the central panel? | 10:14 |
| Mamarok | no, it's not unstable!!!! | 10:14 |
| pronoy | Marmarok: kidding :) | 10:15 |
| PSiL0 | pronoy: You should play around with it to see if you like it.. | 10:15 |
| pronoy | PSiL0: i will thanks for support | 10:15 |
| Mamarok | PSiL0: it's certainoly possible, but not implemented yet | 10:15 |
| Mamarok | *certainly | 10:15 |
| PSiL0 | np.. good luck! | 10:15 |
| Mamarok | I gues somebody has to write a widget for it | 10:15 |
| Mamarok | guess | 10:16 |
| PSiL0 | that's right.. | 10:16 |
| Mamarok | pronoy: Amarok 2 is due any day now....:) | 10:16 |
| Mamarok | 2.0 | 10:16 |
| PSiL0 | It is just little holdover feature I liked using in mediamonkey that threw up the comments field, along with other metadata in a side panel a la the music context tab in 1.4.x | 10:16 |
| PSiL0 | will, the release candidate is out | 10:17 |
| PSiL0 | actually after editing your sources.list, make sure you type sudo aptitude update | 10:18 |
| Mamarok | PSiL0: and the devs have already tons of new features in their git branches for 2.1 :) | 10:18 |
| PSiL0 | Mamarok: Looking forward to them... | 10:19 |
| PSiL0 | Mamarok: At least amarok retained its snappiness in handling large collections | 10:19 |
| PSiL0 | something itunes and songbird are woeful at doing currently | 10:19 |
| pronoy | PSiL0 Mamarok guys the repo doesn't have amarok-kde4 package...... | 10:19 |
| PSiL0 | pronoy: did you "sudo aptitude update"? | 10:20 |
| Mamarok | PSiL0: if you follow this instructions, you can build your own 2.0.1 : | 10:20 |
| Mamarok | http://amarok.kde.org/blog/archives/833-Installing-Amarok-2-from-SVN-in-your-home-directory.html | 10:20 |
| PSiL0 | ahhhh... nice... | 10:20 |
| pronoy | PSiL0 nope....sorry... :D | 10:20 |
| Mamarok | pronoy: just look for amarok | 10:20 |
| johannes_ | hei guys! trying to install my brother mfc printer. follow the guidelines. try to install rpm package with kpackage or smaratpm. same problem: error. cannot create channel for .... what can i do? | 10:21 |
| Mamarok | actually, yes, package name is amarok-kde4 | 10:22 |
| Mamarok | johannes_: what rpm package are you talking about? | 10:24 |
| Mamarok | johannes_: did you check the linuxprinting.org website to see if it's actually supported? | 10:25 |
| pronoy_ | PSiL0, Mamarok: AMAROK 2 ITS ULTRA COOL :d | 10:33 |
| PSiL0 | glad you like it.. | 10:33 |
| pronoy_ | PSiL0: can you please explain a bit about neon..... ? | 10:33 |
| PSiL0 | Isn't that nightly builds? I don't know to tell you the truth | 10:34 |
| pronoy_ | ok maybe Mamarok can help ? | 10:35 |
| PSiL0 | pornoy_: Gotta run.. enjoy messing aroudn with the new amarok... | 10:35 |
| pronoy_ | PSiL0: thanks.....cya | 10:35 |
| Guest320 | Hi. Just did a full system reinstall and updated packages and nvidia driver. Now X crash whenever i log in (i get to the part where it shows my desktop) | 10:36 |
| pronoy_ | Mamarok: can you please explain about NEON / | 10:36 |
| johannes_ | Mamarok: i already had this printer installed on my gentoo box, so i guess it's supported. | 10:40 |
| johannes_ | Mamarok: it's 2 different printer packages ... lpd package and cupswrapper package | 10:41 |
| Mamarok | johannes_: did you check if these are available in the package list? | 10:44 |
| johannes_ | Mamarok: how to do this? | 10:45 |
| Mamarok | apt-cache search lpd and the same again for cupswrapper | 10:45 |
| Mamarok | johannes_: else, you can install rpm packages using the alien command, but you will have to install the latter first | 10:46 |
| johannes_ | Mamarok: actually i think this is what i tried by using kpackage and smartpm ... and those errored telling me something about a missing channel for the package... so i thought the system must recognize the package for example as a KDE/Printing package .. however.. i'll try this alien command | 10:48 |
| Mamarok | johannes_: even better, do "apt-cache search brother | 10:48 |
| Mamarok | what do you mean by "missing channel"? | 10:48 |
| johannes_ | Mamarok: well, i don't know. that's what i get by kpackage ... i'll just try alien... well. the apt-cache get's me the desired packages, but i think those are installed and MY PRINTER (like a version) is missing | 10:49 |
| Mamarok | johannes_: you speak German, don't you? | 10:49 |
| johannes_ | Mamarok: ja | 10:50 |
| Mamarok | go to #kubuntu-de, I can explain better | 10:50 |

| Mamarok | arkygeek_: you should kill your X server | 11:36 |
| arkygeek_ | Mamarok: sudo iwlist shows cell 01 : address 00:13:46:FD:35:AD | 11:37 |
| arkygeek_ | Mamarok: ok.... ermmmm | 11:37 |
| Mamarok | ctrl+alt+backspace | 11:37 |
| arkygeek_ | ive tried that | 11:37 |
| arkygeek_ | same thing | 11:37 |
| Mamarok | then what is this kde-greet package you are talking about? | 11:38 |
| arkygeek_ | that is gone now | 11:38 |
| arkygeek_ | sorry i misunderstood | 11:38 |
| arkygeek_ | ok, you know when you start up, you get the nice dark grey background with the fancy swirly things on it, and a login window... | 11:38 |
| arkygeek_ | i dont get the login window. just the background and a mouse cursor | 11:39 |
| Mamarok | ok, that might be an install problem, do you have kdm installed? | 11:39 |
| arkygeek_ | yes | 11:40 |
| Mamarok | other possibility is the X driver you use, what type of graphic card do you have? | 11:40 |
| arkygeek_ | oh! | 11:40 |
| arkygeek_ | i enabled the restricted driver (fglrx or whatever.... ati card) | 11:40 |
| Mamarok | hm, that could be a problem, what is your card? | 11:41 |
| arkygeek_ | it was running great until that come to think of it. and then it coincided with the qgis build | 11:41 |
| arkygeek_ | checking | 11:41 |
| arkygeek_ | radeom x300SE | 11:41 |
| Mamarok | hm, sounds great | 11:41 |
| Sascha_damals | You had a look in /var/log/kdm.log? | 11:42 |
| arkygeek_ | radeon i mean :P | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: why not get rid of the external packages you installed? | 11:42 |
| arkygeek_ | what external packages though | 11:42 |
| arkygeek_ | everything came from ubuntu repos | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | and use the Qt4 packages that go with Kubuntu | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: but you installed from source, bad idea sometimes | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | nuke them and install the *.deb packages in the official repos | 11:43 |
| arkygeek_ | just the qgis though.... | 11:43 |
| arkygeek_ | oh i think i see something | 11:43 |
| arkygeek_ | log file: (WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0@1:0:1) found | 11:44 |
| arkygeek_ | ^ 2x | 11:44 |
| arkygeek_ | then : | 11:44 |
| arkygeek_ | kdmgreet(5510) KLocalPrivate::initEncoding: Cannot resolve system encoding, defaulting to ISO 8859-1. | 11:45 |
| arkygeek_ | ^ a lot of those | 11:45 |
| Mamarok | Oo, did you change your X server settings? | 11:45 |
| arkygeek_ | don't *think* so | 11:45 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: check the previous Xorg logs | 11:46 |
| Mamarok | or just try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 11:46 |
| arkygeek_ | then reboot? | 11:47 |
| Mamarok | no, only restart the x server | 11:48 |
| arkygeek_ | Mamarok: kdmgreet still at 100%cpu | 11:50 |
| arkygeek_ | ermmmm i mean kdm_greet | 11:50 |
| arkygeek_ | it might be quicker for me to reinstall the whole os | 11:51 |
| arkygeek_ | :-( | 11:51 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: no idea what this kdm_greet is you have | 11:51 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: did you try to move your .kde/? | 11:52 |
| Mamarok | sometimes a config problem | 11:52 |
| arkygeek_ | will try | 11:52 |
| arkygeek_ | that did nothing. but when i think about it.... i don't even get to TRY those settings. it gives me no chance to even log in | 11:53 |
| arkygeek_ | Mamarok: it doesn't get that far :P | 11:53 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: well, you can move .kde/ from the command line | 11:54 |
| arkygeek_ | i did | 11:54 |
| Mamarok | you shouldn't move it once kde is started :) | 11:54 |
| Mamarok | ok, so something is missing in your packages I guess | 11:54 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: why not remove those qgis files? | 11:56 |
| Mamarok | as it worked before you installed them... | 11:56 |

| Nibbler` | ? | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Nibbler`: you'll have to remove the one you have, then install the original | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Nibbler`: you MAY be able to sudo apt-get --reinstall install kubuntu-desktop | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Nibbler`: but it will reinstall a tonne of stuff | 14:29 |

| joey__ | iv tried that but it does not show up in the package manager | 14:32 |

| === diego is now known as tarantos | ||

| knusperfrosch | JontheEchidna "just remove them", isn't that easy apt refuses to remove anything | 14:34 |
| JontheEchidna | sudo apt-get install -f | 14:35 |
| knusperfrosch | nope | 14:35 |
| joey__ | i put deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main in the source list as bin | 14:35 |
| knusperfrosch | JontheEchidna: http://paste.ubuntu.com/82973/ | 14:36 |

| BluesKaj | JontheEchidna, my bad what ? | 14:40 |
| Mamarok | joey__: exactly | 14:40 |
| JontheEchidna | BluesKaj: that's an expression that means "my fault" | 14:40 |
| Mamarok | joey__: then you update your packege list, then you can see the amarok-kde4 package | 14:40 |

| Mamarok | knusperfrosch: screwed where? | 14:54 |
| knusperfrosch | Mamarok: eg kickoff. the icon is the rewind button | 14:55 |
| Ryunix | is it recommended to have a file which doesnt belong to root, in usr/local/games ? | 14:55 |
| knusperfrosch | Nakkel: kickoff->leave all icons are the same "computer with kubuntu logo on the screen" | 14:55 |
| knusperfrosch | Nakkel: sry | 14:55 |
| JuJuBee | ikonia: sorry, I meant to ask if it would suffice for me to block port 6667? TCP or UDP? | 14:56 |

| Mamarok | joey__: you're welcome :) | 14:57 |

| Mamarok | use tab completion :) | 14:58 |

| joey__ | opps Im sorry ok ill will use the others | 14:59 |
| pcfreak_ | wallabee: that are the new optical features of kde4 I think | 14:59 |

| wallabee | pcfreak: yes 8.10 | 14:59 |
| knusperfrosch | are icons cached anywhere? | 15:00 |
| wallabee | pcfreak: so it is supposed to do that or there is an error with the optical feature? | 15:00 |

| nikola_ | This new KDE 4 is killing me... | 15:25 |
| arkygeek_ | nikola_: perhaps you should use 3.5 :-) | 15:25 |
| arkygeek_ | nikola_: what are your system specs? | 15:25 |
| wallabee | i think 4 still a little buggy but it runs pretty smooth on my system | 15:26 |
| Mamarok | arkygeek_: kde-nightly runs *very* smooth here | 15:26 |
| SSJ_GZ | Certain combinations of nvidia cards and drivers can kill performance. | 15:26 |
| Mamarok | :) | 15:27 |
| nikola_ | arkygeek: i don't have a clue, i just bought this new laptop, but vista worked faster than KDE 4 (when the system was loaded) | 15:27 |
| nikola_ | And Graphics sometimes glitch alot. | 15:27 |
| arkygeek_ | maybe you should try the restricted driver for your video card? | 15:27 |
| nikola_ | I tried that, it won't enable it, dunno why tho. | 15:28 |
| nikola_ | Im using ATI series | 15:28 |
| arkygeek_ | ahhh | 15:28 |
| arkygeek_ | that was happening to me | 15:28 |
| wallabee | how can one go about getting such a driver | 15:28 |
| arkygeek_ | make sure you have an internet connection before you try to enable it | 15:28 |
| wallabee | when i search it says no proprietary driver in use | 15:28 |
| nikola_ | ohhhh | 15:29 |
| nikola_ | why didn't anyone say that i must have internet to enable?! lol | 15:29 |

| palbuddy | help please! is there anyone who knows how I can check my external hard drive for errors? | 17:20 |
| faileas | palbuddy: what file system? | 17:21 |
| palbuddy | fat32 | 17:21 |
| nikola_ | O.o | 17:21 |
| palbuddy | or old windows fat something | 17:21 |
| nikola_ | Ur kidding? | 17:21 |
| nikola_ | THis is LInux... | 17:21 |
| palbuddy | yeah, I had the external HD for windows stuff nd just added to my linux computer | 17:22 |
| faileas | i think fsck might handle that | 17:22 |
| palbuddy | okay what would I type in terminal? | 17:22 |
| palbuddy | the problem also is it's labelled 'EXTERNAL HD' and I don't know how to make the space in terminal | 17:22 |
| faileas | try man dosfsck | 17:22 |
| faileas | you probably can use tab complete | 17:23 |
| faileas | or check the mountpoint | 17:23 |
| palbuddy | okay one sec here | 17:24 |
| faileas | palbuddy: cd /media/ then ls . paste the output in a pastebin | 17:24 |
| palbuddy | okay one sec | 17:24 |
| desu | actually, "sudo fdisk -l" might be a better idea to find out what device it is | 17:26 |
| palbuddy | okay now I'm in the external hard drive menu | 17:27 |
| palbuddy | how do I check for errors using dosfsck | 17:27 |
| desu | "sudo fsck <device>" | 17:28 |
| === marianobg is now known as marianobg_ | ||
| palbuddy | so like 'sudo fsck /media/EXTERNAL HD$'? | 17:30 |
| palbuddy | which doesn't work | 17:30 |
| palbuddy | hmm | 17:30 |
| schmidtm | palbuddy: no something like sudo fsck /dev/sdX | 17:32 |
| palbuddy | okay | 17:32 |
| palbuddy | okay it says 'e2fsck: need terminal for interactive repairs' | 17:33 |
| Mamarok | desu: isn't it better not to run fsck on a mounted device? | 17:33 |
| palbuddy | it is mounty | 17:33 |
| palbuddy | sorry | 17:34 |
| palbuddy | hah | 17:34 |
| palbuddy | it is mounted | 17:34 |
| Mamarok | but rather do it like fsck /dev/sd* ? | 17:34 |
| desu | Mamarok: fsck should not be run on mounted devices.... unless they're mounted read-only... which i doubt is the case ehre | 17:34 |
| palbuddy | okay unmounting external HD | 17:34 |
| desu | yeah, fsck /dev/sd?? | 17:34 |
| === jon__ is now known as doomdog | ||

| palbuddy | I'll be around in the background | 17:46 |
| Mamarok | palbuddy: what do you want to do with this drive? | 17:47 |
| Mamarok | keep it as FAT or install as ext3? | 17:47 |
| * Mamarok strongly suggest ext3 | 17:47 | |
| palbuddy | well if I could keep my data ext3 would be great | 17:47 |
| palbuddy | I already have 900 gig installed on here, and it would be a pain in the butt to reinstall everything | 17:48 |
| Mamarok | hm, that can't work unfortuantely, unless there is some miracle tool to convert fat to ext3 without wiping the disk | 17:48 |
| palbuddy | okay well here is the thing | 17:48 |
| palbuddy | I hear some clicking noise I'm not used to on the hard drive, the HD is less then a year old! | 17:49 |

| palbuddy | yeah, I hve | 17:49 |

| palbuddy | okay how do I do that? | 17:53 |
| palbuddy | it's a segate HD btw | 17:53 |
| Mamarok | palbuddy: you need to install smartmontools first | 17:54 |

| Mamarok | sudo apt-get install smartmontools | 17:57 |
| palbuddy | okay | 17:57 |
| Mamarok | palbuddy: what type of HD, SCSI, IDE, SATA? | 17:57 |

| palbuddy | smart health status ok | 18:00 |
| Mamarok | great, so it's unlikely you will have problems in the near future | 18:01 |

| SiVA_ | hi | 18:08 |
| SiVA_ | I enabled the nvidia driver, and now when I alt-tab KDE uses some kind of vista-like rip off for toggling between open applications | 18:09 |
| SiVA_ | anyway, I think it sucks because you can't tell what's before or after the current window | 18:09 |
| SiVA_ | so how do I tell KDE to go back to the original type of alt-tab dialog? | 18:09 |
| mini-man | SiVA_: systemsettings | 18:10 |
| mini-man | somewhere in the Desktop part is an option for specifying which effect is for what, switching windows, desktops, etc. | 18:11 |
| mini-man | I personally use Box switch, I also hate that "flip switch" crap :) | 18:11 |
| SiVA_ | right.. yea, box switch is really nice.. and fast too | 18:12 |
| SiVA_ | the flip switch would work alot better if you could see what windows are stacked to the left and right... as it is now, it's really useless | 18:12 |
| mini-man | plus it reminds me of vista. | 18:12 |
| * mini-man gags | 18:12 | |
| SiVA_ | hrm.. I'm just realizing now, that all of the switchers were turned on, which really caused my initial annoyance with it | 18:14 |
| SiVA_ | strange that alll three would be checked by default | 18:14 |
| SiVA_ | it was all one big blur... hah | 18:14 |
| mini-man | yeah that happened to me too :\ | 18:15 |
| SiVA_ | I'm using the cover and box switch combo... works out good! | 18:15 |
| mini-man | :) | 18:16 |
| mini-man | now if I could figure out why Kate refuses to remember my plugins settings... blarg | 18:16 |

| guest__ | hello room, question, if my harddrive is already partitioned, would it affect the two operating systems if I partitioned it again, without reinstalling them??? | 20:03 |
| Mamarok | guest__: you can resize partitions without wiping them, yes | 20:04 |
| Mamarok | if there is still space left | 20:05 |
| Kovert | wesley__: Yes | 20:05 |
| BlueEagle | guest__: However some operating system do not use unique identifiers for the partitions and if you insert a pertition in front of one it might cause confusion. | 20:05 |
| Kozeris | I have 1 hdd with WinXp, i bought one more for [k]ubuntu, so how install it for that i can choose which OS load, and if i want i could disconnect ubuntu, and then no menu appear and xp loads | 20:05 |
| Kozeris | its somehting to configure linux disk, for that opop up table with choose, and if no that hdd then no table for OS | 20:05 |
| Kozeris | <boriscy> I have installed ubuntu server | 20:05 |
| guest__ | Mamarok: yes there is, thank you | 20:05 |
| wesley__ | You can use akregator | 20:05 |
| guest__ | BlueEagle: I was thinking of partitioning my xp portion of the harddrive | 20:06 |
| BlueEagle | Kozeris: I would assume you set the boot order to linux-disk, windows-disk and have grub installed on the linux disk. If you disconnect it the pc should failover to the windows disk and read windows' boot loader there. | 20:07 |
| BlueEagle | guest__: If you put a partition infront of windows XP then it will definetly not be happy, | 20:07 |
| BlueEagle | guest__: However if you insert a partition between your windows partition and linux partition then grub will most likely not be happy either. | 20:08 |
| guest__ | ok partitioning aside, I have another question, which is the most STABLE updated release of kubuntu out there that is working fine that I can upgrade from dapper-drake?? | 20:08 |
| BlueEagle | guest__: But that's just a matter of changing the grub config. | 20:08 |
