I have AMD X2 5200+, 2GB RAM, CPU usage ~10% when searching for files. [11:19] all HDDs are SATA [11:54] I use ssh as a proxy with -D option.

[12:23] tdn: i think (but not totally sure) it's per program [12:23] you can set it to higher value [12:23] How? [12:23] well no actually [12:24] No?

(Sorry, I don't know facebook either) [14:24] but not something like java as i dont want the user to have to install a load of stuff on their system [14:24] I mean, I know facebook, but have never used it, especially I have never tried to use or write an application for it [14:24] tommy_: You have to install flash and you have to install java - not much difference IMHO [14:25] anyone happen to know why the kubuntu installer would just take a poop? [14:25] most endusers would have flash tho i think [14:25] and AJAX is not going to be versatile enough for what im wanting to do i think [14:26] tommy_: Could be and beside that, most java interfaces I have seen are _ugly_ as web apps. Hmm ... what do you want to do? [14:27] well one idea i have is a facebook app similar to theme park, which would be a good example [14:27] i dont see how i could make something like that easily in AJAX [14:27] tommy_: Mom, I have to google what theme park is [14:28] lol ok [14:29] tommy_: Hmm ... you think it is easy with flash to do it? [14:29] not easy but possible [14:30] say for example having people walking about on the screen [14:30] its not really feasible in ajax [14:30] tommy_: It could be possible if you use SVG-Animations but most browsers don't support them === Guest56094 is now known as ryanakca === ryanakca is now known as Guest44125 [14:31] thats the thing, it needs to be very acessible to the end user [14:31] i think most people are using flash [14:31] for this sort of thing [14:32] hmm, maybe ill just have to hand over the cash to adobe and lump ity [14:32] tommy_: This could indeed be true - but I am rather sure there is at least no IDE for flash so maybe it would still be "easier" to do it with JS because you can use an IDE (e.g. Eclipse) there [14:33] btw. - what about silverlight? [14:33] ive not had a look at it really [14:34] i wish it was still macromedia, i loved that company, hate adobe tho [14:34] tommy_: For moonlight, there is an IDE: Lunar eclipse (of course I haven't tried it out) [14:37] does silverlight come bundled with ie as standard do you know? [14:37] hmm i could use that but its just a question of how many users will just click off when they find out they have to install silverlight [14:38] i think most endusers have flash anyway [14:38] well flash player [14:38] hi === ubuntu is now known as zachary [14:38] tommy_: _Maybe_ it comes bundled with .NET but I don't know that [14:39] thanks for your help anyway, youve certainly given me some food for thought [14:39] is there a way to install ubuntu without burning another disk, because apparently I must have burnt a bad copy, and that was my last CDR [14:39] Howdy folks [14:39] hi BluesKaj [14:40] zachary: I don't think there is, I would have needed it at some day (At least there is no simple way, maybe you could mount the iso in some special way at boot time) [14:41] zachary, if your pc BIOS is capable you can install from a USB stick [14:41] !USB [14:41] For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [14:42] Damn, that's true - I thought the only way to run the USB-System-Creater is from a live-CD === kb is now known as Guest65253 === Guest44125 is now known as ryanakca [15:20] hi firefox above version 3.0 does not know the default application for a mime type [15:20] does anybody know how to fix that?

[18:32] u19809: kmixer [18:34] ok testing [18:36] u19809: if nothing else works try the skype-static or skype-static-oss version [18:37] shadeslayer : hmm I got two input souces (1 and 2) and I set both of them to mic and line and any combination thereof. However I still hear my TV when I call skyp testing service not my mic [18:37] u19809: have a go at the static versions [18:38] what do you mean with 'static' versions ? another download or a setting in skype ? [18:39] u19809: a different packahe [18:39] *package [18:39] !info skype-static [18:39] Package skype-static does not exist in jaunty [18:39] u19809: sudo apt-get install skype-static [18:40] skype-static does not exist as package [18:45] <[-Haza-]> Hey folks. Anyone been having trouble with Skype recently on kubuntu. It seems to eat 50% CPU most of the time and keeps dropping its connection [18:45] <[-Haza-]> Any idea's? [18:49] shadeslayer, thanks ,but no thanks , svn is too flaky from my experience [18:50] hehe.. [18:55] shadeslayer, do you have an icon source/url for reconq ? [18:55] BluesKaj: theyre in the SVN itself... [18:55] err rekonq === user_ is now known as devl [18:56] BluesKaj: heres the file listing of the icon folder of the SVN : http://pastebin.com/f3e0dec3a [19:02] Hello, #kubuntu. === laptop is now known as Guest72788 === jipang_menjerit is now known as jipangOffline [19:03] So my computer freezes semi randomly. Should I ask on windows because I had only xp installed, or should I ask here because my kubuntu livecd is the only way to get past the boot screen? Or is there a #ghostintheshell? [19:05] Btw, I think it's very likely a hardware problem but... It's weird, man. [19:05] if you can only get past the xp boot screen by a a livecd, its a windows issue [19:05] is it the windows boot screen you see, or bios boot screen? [19:06] shadeslayer, yeah thanks i should have looked in the rekonk folders for the png files [19:06] BluesKaj: :) [19:07] Serpardum: You'd think that eh? Well sometimes the livecd crashes when it's trying to boot Linux, it crashes if I run QTParted. It crashes if I run Setup. It sometimes crashes anyway even if I behave and don't run anything funny like that. [19:08] hardware problem. check your memory. check your cpu. check your power supply [19:08] My first suspect is memory [19:08] How many programmers does it take to change a lightbulb? [19:08] Can't be done, that's a hardware problem. [19:08] shadeslayer : got it, apparently puls does not support audio IN and skype fell back to my TV card as first source with audion IN capabilities [19:09] .Memory? RAM? Would the 7,10 livecd's memory check thing work? [19:09] if it has it, yes [19:09] any system check you have, run [19:09] Serpardum: Also, how can I check my cpu? [19:09] not easily. [19:09] you want to monitor the temperature [19:09] Serpardum: Temp is fine [19:09] 60 minus [19:09] fan working [19:09] how old is your computer? [19:10] speicifically your cpu [19:10] no, motherboard [19:10] Serpardum: Botha re about... Shit, I can barely remember. [19:10] Think I bought them back in 2006 [19:10] ubottu: so the static version worked? [19:10] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:11] then it's probably on the far end. mother boards I see tend to have around a 4-5 year lifespan nowadays unless you get an expeinsive one. then 5-6 [19:11] so then you go to get a new mohterboard, and you find out that your cpu socket isn't supported anymore. so you gotta buy a new cpu, and ytou find out your memory wont fit [19:12] Serpardum: I was expecting a more gradual increase in freeze frequency =/ [19:12] so you eihter kick in for new motherboard, cpu and memory, or look around for a computer on sale [19:12] unfortually they just do that [19:12] one day they just go. Hmm.. I think I'm going to sleep now. goodnight [19:12] Serpardum: aw man that sucks =( [19:13] This is the 2nd computer I've had since.. 04 I think. maybe 05 [19:13] Hey hey hey hold it [19:13] I bought the new computer becuae like I said, cpu wouldn't fit, memory wouldn't fit, etc.. [19:13] got a good deal though 487 out the door for refurbished [19:13]
