[00:00] *should have extracted it too, like what's the normal spot you would do it [00:01] caseyd: lets see the README file [00:01] EagleScreen: Cool, I'll have a snoop round for it. Thanks. [00:02] EagleScreen: it doesn't really tell you how to do it... I figured maybe there was a normal procedure for .tgz files [00:02] yes there is [00:02] it is ./configure; make; sudo make install [00:03] but this is different [00:03] ahh okay [00:04] salut la planete hi the world [00:04] * caseyd writes that down =) [00:04] caseyd: i think this is already compiled, you only need to run it [00:05] oh okay [00:05] y a des french [00:06] know how to run it heh? [00:06] if you got a program that was already compliled and such, where would you put it on your harddrive? [00:07] caseyd: first lets try to run it [00:07] try ./phun [00:08] look http://pastebin.ca/1552087 [00:08] that's what I got aswell [00:09] i'll try and find those [00:09] so if it worked, where would you put it? [00:10] a local program as this should go in /opt [00:10] ok [00:10] thanks =) [00:11] caseyd: put it better in /usr/local/ [00:11] and you can make a symlink of the executable in /usr/local/bin [00:12] ok [00:12] how would I add it to my start menu [00:15] Meh, looks like too much trouble.

[00:51] upstream bug report is at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=186745 [00:51] it seems that is fixed in Arch, Gentoo, etc [00:51] but i still can reproduce [00:52] http://i27.tinypic.com/2mqmc0n.png [00:52] is a snapshot I took [00:54] dschulz- probably because Ubuntu didn't backport the fix [00:56] Dragnslcr aha.. that's what i thought [00:57] i hope gets included soon.. and we don't have to wait to 4.3.2 [01:01] Is there a bug report in Launchpad for it? If not, the Ubuntu devs might not even know about it [01:03] Dragnslcr: i'll see === ubuntu is now known as EagleScreen [01:20] Dragnslc: filed a bug report in launchpad.

[02:47] update for 4.3 [02:48] probably [02:48] marco: I'll give it a try [02:48] Kde 4.3 has fixed up many bugs!, aproxx 10.000 [02:48] I read that [02:48] so is this Quassel the default irc client now ?

[03:17] @mewtwo: yeah but that shouldn't be much of a problem [03:18] it just removes the plasma widget [03:18] which you can reinstall later (which, in turn, will remove wicd) [03:19] I don't see wicd anywhere [03:20] you'll have to edit your repositories [03:21] not exactly sure how to do that. :| [03:21] mk [03:21] from terminal [03:21] execute: [03:21] sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list [03:22] and add: [03:22] deb http://apt.wicd.net jaunty extras [03:22] I assume you know how to use vim?

[03:32] I'm about to just try the netbook remix thing [03:33] still on 9.04 [03:33] I meant [03:33] update apt, run: [03:33] sudo aptitude update [03:33] please who can help me to resize my desktop view? [03:34] oh, sorry [03:34] there we go, it's workign [03:35] Depends: python-urwid but it is not installable [03:35] mk [03:35] hmm [03:37] does it give a reason why it's not installable? [03:37] nope [03:39] try installing it manually [03:39] that is, sudo aptitude install python-urwid [03:40] reports that it needs to get 0B of archives... hmm [03:40] argh... [03:41] strange.. :) [03:41] what is it that Linux wants to always be broken around me [03:42] always something that doesn't want to work [03:42] haha it happens to me often as well === rosco_away is now known as rosco_y [03:42] but it works out in the end [03:42] isnt that the fun part?

[03:44] ugh [03:44] I'll just see if 9.10 works [03:45] try running wicd to make sure it's actually not installed [03:45] wicd: command not found [03:45] ah [03:45] sorry I couldn't help more :( [03:46] if 9.10 doesn't work I'll have to screw around with Backtrack [03:46] (which seems to work fine... there's a "wireless assistant" in it that I use) [03:56] does anyone here have any experience with fglrx+xrandr? [03:57] whats the problem?

[05:19] I'm looking to see what I installed [05:19] ok so i see on the kubuntu site that kde 4.3 has been released, and that it's such a good idea to upgrade to it [05:19] and i see the screenshots and cool videos [05:20] and i make the decision to upgrade [05:20] sun-java6-jre,sun-java6-fonts,sun-java6-bin, sun-java6-plugin [05:20] i'm now looking at a default kde background and a mouse cursor [05:20] and if you need anything else, it should tell you... [05:20] is that directed at me Quasar1048 [05:21] no, at LuisJa [05:21] oh [05:21] dude [05:21] so [05:21] all those are installed [05:21] still i dont got recommended version [05:21] i wanna play runescape [05:21] Firefox? [05:21] yes [05:21] restricted extras already installed [05:21] yeah, that gave me trouble too... [05:22] now i understand that the packages aren't supported by canonical, blah blah blah.... but kubuntu.org recommended the upgrade, and now my kde is ruined... my computing experience is now limited to wiggling my cursor around [05:22] cant remember right off the top of my head how I fixed it.. [05:22] and getting to login to the fancy new kdm [05:22] was the suggestion to upgrade some kind of inside joke?

[09:51] tdn: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html [10:00] guys [10:00] my ktorrent webui isnt working properly [10:00] after logging i see nothing else than a blank display [10:05] alvin, I have tried these instructions. But nothing happens when I insert the DVD. [10:09] tdn: Should there happen something? That's actually what I expect. Your system shouldn't bother you with questions when you insert a medium. What do you see in the nice 'Devices recently plugged in' plasma widget thing? [10:10] alvin, nothing. [10:10] alvin, it is empty. [10:11] tdn: aha, then your disc isn't recognized. Maybe a non-standard format or a defective drive/disc? Look in the output of 'dmesg' [10:12] alvin, nothing in dmesg. [10:12] alvin, I can play this disc in Windows on the same machine. [10:13] So it should not be defective. [10:17] alvin, I just tried starting Kaffeine and clicked Play DVD. It works. But it is still not the the Recently inserted devices. [10:18] I wonder if a DVD has to be mounted in order to play. [10:19] Maybe you can try to mount it manually [10:20] td: $ isoinfo -d -i /dev/cdrom might give you some info about the format [10:21] alvin, http://thomasdamgaard.dk/paste/P1382.html [10:23] tdn: I see "BAD RRVERSION" there. A small search points me to bug #57796 [10:23] Maybe there is your problem. [10:24] Shouldn't ubottu give a short description? [10:29] In which package is asoundconf? It doesn't seem to be installed by default in Karmic [10:30] zorael: '$ dpkg -S adoundconf' will tell you it's in alsa-utils [10:30] zorael: Sorry, that should be '$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/asoundconf' [10:30] alvin, the "fix" of this bug report is: "Both images are violating the Rock Ridge standard. You need to make a bug report against the utility that created the images." I am a bit disappointed in this. Maybe this DVD does vialoate this RR thing, but it does work fine in Windows and in a DVD player. So if we want t large user share, we cannot just tell people that this thing does not conform with standards, if it does work fine in other OS'es. [10:31] alvin: Only if the package is installed, no? [10:31] else I'd need to use apt-file and index all packages' contents [10:38] zorael: true. That's why I did it myself [10:39] tdn: Violating standards is pretty serious ;-) It shouldn't be encouraged. [10:40] alvin, I agree. But if the majority of DVD players and operating systems does support this, then Kubuntu should also. Then it is a defacto-standard. [10:42] tdn: It depends on how well the violation of the standard is documented. [10:43] alvin, of course. [10:44] It should still be punished by not using the software that violates the standard. Let's take the example of Outlook's TNEF attachments. This is causing grief for years and years... Apple mail can't read them. Apple shouldn't fight back by making unreadable DVD's.

Is there a good usenet client? I looked at KNode (which is integrated with Kontact I think, but it is. on the one hand, very complicated and on the other seems to lack simple features like deleteing articles (that are spam and I don't want to see all the time).
