I have all the key and certs from the vpn admin along with a vpn config file. ive tried network manager and kvpnc. openvpn is installed. [04:51] hey can somebody help me with rndc? [04:54] yang_: whats the issue? [04:55] rndc wont connect to bind9 locally [04:55] giving a socket error? [04:55] hollowPoint: no a invalid key is the problem [04:55] aaaaaaaaaaaah [04:56] I had that problem once I'm trying to remember how I solved it [04:56] HollowPoint: i tried with the but there is no /etc/rndc.conf file [04:56] it was a feature of rndc first of all to re-generate a new key, I had to use that first [04:56] HollowPoint: rndc-confgen [04:56] if there's no rndc.conf file I would first and foremost find a generic one with google and modify it [04:57] HollowPoint: but it produces no output... related to the /dev/random not being seeded and out of ouput [04:57] hmmmmm [04:57] HollowPoint: i have one generic that dosn't make a diffrence for somereason [04:58] it's been a long time since I had this error. Are you on Jaunty? did it ever work? [04:58] Yeah Im on jaunty. I have unistalled and reinstall purge like 3 or 4 times today. I made it work onces [04:59] right, so when did it stop? Did you change something and restart the daemon? [04:59] It works out of the box but after I change any options at all in /etc/bind/named.conf.options [04:59] ok what options are you changing? [04:59] then rndc complains it has a bad key. all i have done is uncomment forwarders [05:00] have you added forwarders or just uncomment them? [05:03] I've just installed a fresh bind9 on my system, changed out the 0.0.0.0 in forwarders for my dns server locally and restarted bind9 service with no issues, I am on Karmic as opposed to Jaunty but I doubt highly that'll make any difference to bind9 and it's configuration tbh [05:08] IDK ill purge it and try it again [05:10] failed again [05:11] what verision is bind9 in karmic? [05:13] BIND 9.6.1-P1 [05:13] I know this is a stupid question but you are trying to restart it with sudo right? [05:14] some apps tend to fail restarts with odd reasons even though it's actually a permissions error [05:14] sudo /etc/init.d/bind9 restart [05:14] ty for help btw [05:15] no worries, so I can't help more, I've tried to reproduce the error on Karmic, but the last time I had this error was way back when in Hardy [05:15] sorry I can't .... * [05:15] i think i got it. 2 forwaders are issue [05:15] one forwarder runs fine. [05:15] yeah that would no doubt do it [05:15] maybe syntax [05:16] or possibly need a second forwarders tag [05:16] yeah [05:17] hmmmmmmmm, two tags, using identical syntax fails here [05:18] aha [05:18] 192.168.0.254; 192.168.0.1; works fine here [05:18] on the same line, with a space after the first semi colon [05:18] hmm? [05:18] i did 2 lines. [05:18] ill try it [05:18] yeah me too first time [05:18] seems to require them on the same line with a simple spane and not a \n [05:19] its good [05:19] ty [05:19] :D [05:19] glad I could help [05:19] off to try a zone again!

Carrion is an important food source for large carnivores and omnivores in most ecosystems. Examples of carrion-eaters, or scavengers, include Hyenas, Vultures, Canadian Opossum, Tasmanian Devils, Black Bears, Komodo Dragons, Bald Eagles, Raccoons, flying squirrels, and Blue-tongued lizards. Many invertebrates, such [06:00] as worms, maggots and carrion beetles (family Silphidae), and Calliphorid flies also eat carrion and play an important role in recycling animal remains. [06:00] Carrion begins to decay the moment of the animal's death, and it will increasingly attract insects and breed bacteria. Not long after the animal has died, its body will begin to exude a foul odor caused by the presence of bacteria and the emission of cadaverine and putrescine. [06:00] Some plants and fungi smell like decomposing carrion and attract insects that aid in sex. Plants that exhibit this behavior are known as carrion flowers. Stinkhorn mushrooms are examples of fungi with this characteristic. [06:00] Axmen6: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

Does someone knows how to repair it, please? [11:44] I try to use HDA Nvidia (Conexant Analog) but it says it doesnt work and also that it will use HDA Nvidia (Conexant Digital), but it doesnt sound, so I guess, although it detects that "digital" works fine, it may be something wrong with it as well [11:45] Can someone help me fixing that? [11:45] no [11:45] all people have this problem [11:46] amm, really? [11:46] Pufff, it's a problem with some problems, for example with Skype, that I cannot make it work fine [11:47] is it something with Xine?

[11:50] alsa: x-phonon: card=0, Dev=0 [11:50] well funded probably the wrong word [11:51] javier: my system is using jackd for all sound in comb ination with alsa i dont know if this is working with youre card [11:51] i've heard its not "looked after" bug etc... as ubuntu is but i really like kde [11:51] NiNes: QA is in both the same [11:51] -_- [11:52] ghostcube: so, you don't know if that would work with me? [11:52] no its just an suggest to try [11:52] :) [11:52] i cant tell if it would work [11:52] I would like to try, could you give me a link to how to do it or help? [11:52] ghostcube, i'm new to linux and trying to figure out whats best for me. [11:53] javier: you need to use some files from debian packages and extract them manually into the needed foldersto get jackd to work in kubuntu [11:54] lol [11:55] ay.. it looks a bit complicated, I'm not sure if I could do something like that. I've never done anything similar :S [11:55] its easy if you can wait i can tell you later when iam home [11:55] :) [11:55] my system see VIA HD Sound but... "not work" [11:55] deb packages are nothing else than zip packages [11:55] javier: so its easy to take an library out to put it into system [11:55] :) [11:55] no need to compile or so [11:56] or you just grab the xine-lib packages from debian sid and install it [11:56] mhm. So, could you asses me a bit in the process? I guess, for starting, I would have to find those debian packages. Which are their names?

[12:12] ghostcube: ok, I'm improving. Let me tell you where I am. I went to the folder you said: /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.26. I dont find there xineplug_ao_out_jack.so [12:12] lol [12:12] no you have a plugin folder in /usr/lib/xine [12:12] and it has a version number [12:12] just copy the file from the deb file to this location [12:12] :) [12:12] I downloaded the deb file. If I press on it, it tells to install and gives an error. I extracted it [12:13] yeah and inside there is jack outpout libaryr [12:13] yes, inside /usr/lib/xine I have plugin folder: and inside plugins I have folder 1.26 that is my version, I think [12:14] but inside, I dont read "jack" anywhere [12:16] I have five plugin files:xineplug_ao_out_alsa.so; xineplug_ao_out_file.so; xineplug_ao_out_none.so; xineplug_ao_out_oss.so; xineplug_ao_out_pulseaudio.so [12:18] hmmm [12:18] maybe you mean that after installing deb file I will have that? [12:19] if I try to install deb file it reports an error and it closes [12:19] javier: i see it [12:19] ok i give you the file [12:20] well, in the folder we are talking about, I have more xineplug files, but not _ao_out_*, but different, and any related to jack [12:20] no [12:20] we talking of different folders [12:21] if you extract the deb file it will contain the jackd file [12:21] you should copy it to youre local folder [12:21] so we definetly talk about two different folders [12:21] http://www.speedyshare.com/412999885.html [12:21] ammm [12:21] get the file here and copy it over to [12:22] but if I extract the deb file you sent me, It contains "control.tar.gz", "data.tar.bz.2" and "debian-binary". I dont know which one I'm supposed to copy to the folder /usr/lib/xine/plugins/verison_number/ [12:23] in the data tar logically is the data tar hehe [12:23] inside this is the folder you need [12:23] but just get the file i postet [12:23] its the same === happyhessian1 is now known as happyhessian [12:24] ok, had to install a new irc client there...i asked earlier about system settings-> multimedia [12:25] ok :) I got the file.

[12:25] :) [12:25] trying to get a usb-audio device to work, phonon (or whatever one would call this part of the system) identifies the usb-audio device and i can set it as my preferred device--but it doesn't work [12:26] the only way i can make it work is with an asound.conf script [12:27] ok, so now, it doesnt let me copy it. I think because I'm not working as root, isn't it? how could I copy it from terminal? (sorry for so much work, I'm very thankfull) [12:27] sudo cp [12:29] sudo cp doesnt work, "missing one argument for that" [12:31] ok, I see.

[12:34] sudo cp xineplug ao out jack.so /javier/Escritorio /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.26 [12:35] I wrote that, but with xineplug_ao_out_jack.so, but doesnt work, I'm writting something wrong in the order I think [12:38] oha [12:38] it says "cannot make stat over xineplug_ao_out_jack.so [12:38] is the file direkt inside home folder [12:38] ? [12:38] I'm very bad with konsole yet, begginers... [12:38] I mean, I don't know how to move the file with sudo cp [12:39] sudo cp filename /usr/lib/..... [12:39] you never used windows doshell eh ? [12:39] :) [12:42] ghg [12:43] sudo cp xineplug_ao_out_jack.so /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.26/ shouldn't this work??? It answers "couldnt make 'stat' over <>: the file or the folder don't exist [12:46] i guess i'll try again some other time... [12:47] I have debian installed on a certain partition. Can i safely install Kubuntu on top of it by just formatting the partition and going through with the Kubuntu installation procedure ? [12:48] you will erase debian [12:48] note: I also run ubuntu hardy(which i use now) which i would like to keep [12:48] dartagnan_: thats should be okay so long as thats all it does :P [12:48] you have to create a third partition [12:49] dartagnan_: what for do i need a third partition ? [12:49] Gooood morning. [12:49] you wan to keep debian or replace it by kubuntu? [12:49] dartagnan_: i want to replace debian [12:49] Kubuntu for teh win baby! I'm absolutely lovin' v9.10!!! [12:49] k [12:49] ghostcube: could you tell me what to write? file name: xineplug_ao_out_jack.so the file is in /home/javier/Escritorio the folder where I'm trying to move it is: /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.26 [12:50] Bornabe: dartagnan_ : I wanna replace debian with kubuntu karmic [12:50] Had to remove all the eMail, Contacts, etc... and switched to FireFox / Thunderbird, but other than that, it's awesome. [12:50] Karmic is an excellent release as well. [12:50] you have to erase deian partion first I think [12:50] after you install kubuntu [12:50] could somebody help me with Firefox and Iceweasel (they are not running) [12:50] I did a full backup of what I had and went for an all-out Kubuntu only install this time. [12:51] you do it in two steps or your installing kubuntu manually at first time [12:51] Be back in a few, going to tighten up a few loosends and then come back to see if I can help. [12:51] Bornabe: its easy [12:52] dartagnan_: so you're saying i first format my debian drive & then install Kubuntu on it ? [12:52] I love quassel btw [12:53] you reformat ur debian partition [12:53] you can do it by many ways [12:54] dartagnan_: about the idea of reformatting my deb partition : 1. will it remove debian completely with no leftovers? 2. will it not affect *anything else* ? [12:54] use gparted [12:54] if so, then i'm fine with it [12:54] or you can simply choose install kubuntu manually and tell it to install on the debian partition [12:55] dartagnan_: this seems an easier option. [12:55] kubuntu for the win? [12:55] dartagnan_: Kubuntu yes.. only a matter of how :-) [12:55] is it so much better than ubuntu? [12:56] dartagnan_: thats what i want to find out ;) [12:56] dartagnan_: basically, i've just started hacking kstars.. so contemplating the shift [12:56] no, it wont affect anything else, but u have to be careful [12:57] lol [12:57] ghostcube: please, solve me how to do this, we are very close :) [12:57] you are a mystical debian user [12:57] kubuntu [12:58] dartagnan_: i once gave KDE a try(when i was a noob) but seems i got some buggy version or something [12:58] I feel like missing the point [12:59] dartagnan_: got very pained with what i saw and swore i'd almost never use KDE :P [12:59] sudo cp /home/javier/Escritorio/xineplug_ao_out_jack.so /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.26/ [12:59] anyway Im for kubuntu for sure [12:59] dartagnan_: but i'm interested in astronomy and kstars has attracted me... and a lot of my friends develop for KDE. so me willing to give it another try [12:59] maybe I should give it a try too [13:00] ok, uff, finally I did it. And now? how is it supposed to work? [13:00] could somebody help me with Firefox and Iceweasel (they are not running) [13:00] javier: best is reboot [13:01] oh wait you need a thing before [13:05] you need the asound.conf file [13:05] and jackd [13:05] sudo apt-get instal qjackctl [13:05] sudo apt-get install qjackctl [13:05] lol [13:06] hh [13:06] :) [13:07] after that reboot? [13:07] javier: only log out of KDE and log in again, reboot is for Windows :) [13:08] blue [13:08] ok. for doing that... i log out sesion and then restart Xorg? [13:08] javier: no, just log out and in again, and if you just install a new application it's not even necessary [13:12] dartagnan_: thanks for your help. [13:12] ghostcube: ok, I'm here back again [13:12] yeah [13:13] sudo apt-get install qjackctl [13:13] so now, I guess I go to preferences and I put jack on top of the list in audioconfiguration? [13:13] ah! I already installed that [13:13] you havent installed jackd i think so [13:13] oh ok [13:13] :) [13:13] then yes jackd should be available in sound settings [13:13] you need to start it [13:13] by opening qjakctl [13:14] ok, I opened it [13:14] start jackd if not done [13:14] :) [13:14] done [13:14] i start jack audio connection kit [13:15] yes and there is start and stop button [13:15] *started [13:15] Howdy [13:15] right [13:15] so if you can click start jackd not running [13:15] :D [13:15] fine u [13:16] mmm, i can press start and after 1 second it stops and report an error [13:16] ok whats the error [13:16] pls post it to www.pastie.org [13:16] if its possible [13:16] global operation failed, it cannot connect the server [13:16] hmmm [13:17] puh hard to get this done by not in front support [13:17] :D [13:17] mmm, do you want me to copy the text of mistake in that adress?

[15:12] boban: not unlikely, but 4.3.2 is not even released yet, why do you ask about 4.3.3? [15:12] because i like kde more [15:12] boban: because 4.3.2 is not KDE? *sigh* [15:13] and im thinking that is going to be even better with newer releases [15:13] no because kwin is still slugish on x3100 [15:13] boban: anyway, please address Karmic question in #ubuntu+1 [15:13] i use xorg-edgers [15:13] ok [15:13] ok [15:13] boban: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[15:21] it's an nvidia card [15:21] sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new [15:21] then sudo nvidia-xconfig [15:21] then reboot [15:22] it will most likely want to install additional packages, you should agree [15:22] if your card is of the older variety, then you may have to replace -glx-new with -glx-legacy [15:23] rafytafy: that is for ubuntu, kubuntu hardy isnt LTS [15:23] yeah but kubuntu hardy uses the same kernel === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [15:25] rafytafy: so you mean its just the KDE-packages that will be EOL? [15:26] at some date? [15:26] i would assume so [15:26] lokpest: the KDE 3.5.x part's EOL is 11.2009 IIRC [15:26] ok... [15:26] after the Karmic release [15:26] any referenses would be nice [15:26] i am waiting on the next lts 10.4 to update my kubuntu hardy [15:27] ok it is working nice [15:27] lokpest: well, that was on the kubuntu.org website since ages, after Hardy came out [15:27] i will install new kernel though because i want to check out the k10 stuff [15:27] i used the latest driver it went ok [15:27] ok good ubsafder [15:27] rafytafy: just be aware that you will get no security updates for KDE anymore [15:27] Mamarok: ok, i will ask the great oracle know as Google :) [15:27] Mamarok: i am well aware :P [15:28] Mamarok: you told me once that not being able to log out, shutdown etc was a known issue, do you know of a solution? [15:28] i wonder if there will be a painless way to update from 8.04 directly to 10.4... [15:28] probably not [15:28] bigjools: it works well in Jaunty, make sure you have the latest updates [15:29] bigjools: if it wont shutdown you can always ctrl +alt+f1 then -> sudo -s -H && shutdown -h now [15:29] it started happening when I used the 4.3 updates in Jaunty, and it's still a problem in karmic [15:29] rafytafy: no [15:29] ive done it :( [15:29] it's not about not being able to log out, it's kdm not restarting [15:29] OHH [15:29] read it wrong, sorry [15:29] bigjools: ask in #ubuntu+1 for Karmic, please [15:30] sure thing, thanks [15:30] so it was a kwin problem? [15:30] can always try an old workout such as going to init3 then back to init5 [15:30] rafytafy: also, Ctrl+Alt+F1 is *not* recommended, as it doesn't shut down the applications cleanly, Alt+SysRq+K is better [15:30] yeah true :( [15:30] rafytafy: In Debian and Ubuntu runlevels 2,3,4 and 5 are not different [15:31] genii back when i had to install nvidia manually, i would restart x by going to init3 then back to init5 [15:31] this was in errr...dapper i believe [15:31] rafytafy: well, you should update your knowledge then ;) [15:32] yeah i know about /etc/init.d/kde start/stop [15:32] Hardy Heron should have been Hairy Hardon btw [15:32] :D [15:32] lokpest: please, stay on topic [15:32] lokpest: You've been warned already about crudity and swearing, please don't continue with it [15:33] it would seem that during the years i tried methods that had odd results [15:33] hi [15:33] hi [15:33] hello [15:34] hi [15:38] what about kde 4.3.2?

Is that possible ? [17:02] N30: you can install one or the other, then just install the other display manager and pick kde or gnome at start up [17:02] can install others too if you wish, like xfce, fluxbox etc etc [17:03] you first install the kubuntu cd, then with your terminal you can *sudo apt-get install ubuntu-session ....unless its called something else now [17:04] rafytafy , now i have ubuntu(gnome). How can i install KDE from kubuntu CD ? [17:04] What's a good desktop on small screens, like Acer Aspire One? [17:04] N30: Do you have internet connection [17:04] Ya. [17:04] But i wanna install from CD . [17:04] N3O: Add the CD to the repositories to save on downloads. [17:04] N3O: if you have a good internet connection, you can just install the kubuntu-desktop package [17:05] i dont think gnome session is included on the kubuntu cd..perhaps someone else can tell you [17:05] kubuntu-desktop....not session..ahh..been a while [17:06] N3O: else you can add the CD to your sources.list, then get the KDE package from there [17:06] morgan , i already done that using 'synaptic package manager' . But when i'm trying this "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" its gives me an error [17:06] Mamarok: wasnt there a method for installing *pure kde* [17:07] N30: Did you run 'aptitude update'? [17:07] rafytafy: e didn't say he wanted to remove Gnome [17:07] he* [17:07] Mamarok, i already done that using 'synaptic package manager' . But when i'm trying this "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" its gives me an error [17:07] what sort of error [17:07] morgan , already done...!! but still have the error..! [17:08] i think i can't add the cd as reposetory [17:08] is your synaptic manager open while you are using terminal to apt-get install? [17:08] N3O: that's waht I told you :) [17:08] so if I just "sudo aptitude install kde" from ubuntu, what will I be missing? [17:08] you can do this thrpough Synaptic too, just edit the sources when the CD is in the drive [17:08] odysseas: a lot, start with kubuntu-desktop [17:09] Mamarok , so what i ahve to do ? [17:09] Mamarok: is it possible to add a directory..like /home/raf/somedirectory, as a repo source? would i have to add a txt file listing the packages? [17:09] Ya i wanna ask the same question [17:09] N3O: §I don't remember exactly the way synaptic works, but put the CD in the drive, start Synaptic and then go to the menu where you can edit the repositories [17:09] rafytafy: of course [17:10] oh thats some good news [17:10] there are various options wether to add a CD source, a local source or a remote source [17:10] reason I ask is I like to get some stuff from getdeb...and was thinking of just putting them into a directory [17:10] Mamarok , i already do that. but it can't work. i think kubuntu CD can't be used as repo [17:11] N3O: of course it can, but you need to add it as a CD, not as a repo source, there is an option to add a CD [17:12] Mamarok , OK then how can i select the source as local source / === zorael__ is now known as zorael [17:12] N3O: I don't use Synaptic, but if you look at the options for the sources, you should be able to find it [17:13] has anyone here used the new amarok? [17:14] N3O: deb cdrom:[Kubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release i386 (20090420.1)]/ jaunty main restricted [17:14] N3O: That's a sample cd-rom line from my /etc/apt/sources.list [17:15] N3O: So I guess yours should look something similar. [17:16] rafytafy: I use it daily [17:16] any difference between 1.4 and 2.2 [17:16] Hello, I've asked this question in the ##kernel channel but have yet to receive a response. My kubuntu has the kernel 2.6.28-11, Does anyone know how often the kernel is updated? [17:16] a lot, Amarok 2 is a complete rewrite with another codebase [17:17] oh wow [17:17] any new integrations? [17:17] pulaski: in Jaunty only for security updates [17:17] rafytafy: I can't tell, I haven't used 1.4 in ages, using 2.x since the developement started [17:17] i did a gconfig on 2.6.31.1 today and didnt see any mk10 support:( [17:18] man i cant wait for 10.4 lts :(! [17:18] rafytafy: what are you talking about? [17:18] Mamarok: support for k10 [17:18] like k8 [17:18] * Mamarok doesn't know what k10 is [17:19] the new am3 motherboards [17:19] ah... [17:19] for phenom2 [17:19] there is a growing number of people pissed off, bcse we dont yet have lm-sensors support [17:19] and some other functions [17:26] hi i'd like to try the latest kdevelop4, does anyone know if that means i need to upgrade to the 9.10 beta? [17:27] Mamarok: Thanks for responding. I'm waiting on a driver that is currently in development. Do you know how I can get a kernel update - other than security updates - that might have this new driver for the Creative's X-Fi sound card? [17:36] pulaski: sorry, was afk. No, you will either have to compile a newer krnel to get this feature or upgrade to Karmic once it is released [17:36] kernel* even === root is now known as Guest50373 [17:42] :D [17:42] heyy anyone around? I have a little problem could use some insight [17:43] I have feisty and apparently it didnt come with adept, so i just installed it, and im trying to install JRE.. so when I attempt to instatll the packages in adept and apply changes it crashes [17:45] black: Try using apt-get or aptitude from the command line. It branches to a licence page or something. Run from a console and post any relevant output. [17:45] how can I add lines into the file? but specific lines [17:48] morgan: gracias.. however im still somewhat of a linux noob so what do you mean :D what should i do :x [17:50] black: Feisty? that is pretty much outdated, no? EOL was reached a year ago [17:50] I stringly suggest you upgrade to a supported version [17:50] strongly, even :) [17:51] ya I agree, right now my main pc is royaly fkd up so this is my backup.. but im enjoying messing with kde and linux [17:51] so I dont wanna fk it up and have no computer [17:52] even if it is just updating, im scared [17:52] theres no way to upgrade through terminal is there or any other way besides burning a live cd [17:54] black: I don't think you can upgrade Feisty, unless you get the CDs of the various next releases till Hardy, the best is to backup your home folder and do a fresh install, but since it still works, wait for Karmic to be released :) [18:01] morgan , ^^ [18:02] morgan , r u there ? [18:04] Mamarok: sounds good, when is Karmic being released? [18:05] black: release is scheduled for October 29th [18:11] what is the launch pad ppa? [18:11] i have the ones for gnome, etc, but arent they different for kde? [18:18] this adept crashing thing is killing me, any suggestions on what i should do? morgan mentioned apt-get or apitude but im still a noob === jscudder is now known as scudder [18:25] black: i think adept is not supported on feisty. what are you trying to install?

[19:42] it's probably .thunderbird/ [19:42] Mamarok: I can't convey my issue very well. I apologize. I want the "firefox" command to run FF3.5. It won't. Just going to have to dig in the bin folder I guess...THX for your help!

[22:57] well i should have googled for it first ... just a sec [22:57] no idea [22:57] hmm [22:57] i figure 33% of the original price [22:57] rafytafy: and this doesn't belong here, you should ask in #kubuntu-offtopic [22:57] ah === maximo is now known as Maximo [22:59] it's 9.04.

[23:02] r3d0x: install the kubuntu-restricted-extras package [23:03] rp2: well, you still didn't tell me the KDE version [23:04] thanks Mamarok [23:04] yes, it works. so I did have a question, but i was stupid enough to hope that just updating everything would fix it, and cleverly enough, that's exactly what has happened! [23:05] pretty cool ... [23:05] rp2: nice :) [23:05] r3d0x: you are welcome [23:05] is kubuntu a good choice for a beginner to linux [23:05] my second question isn't KDE-related: i want to know whether i can use two motherboards with the (cheap) hardware I have [23:05] NiNes: I think so, yes [23:06] NiNes: I always liked KDE better than Gnome, so I'd say yes [23:06] rp2: no idea, sorry, you should check on Google for that [23:06] oh i hate gnome. [23:06] folks, stay on topic, discussions should go to #kubuntu-offtopic [23:06] Mamarok: I have (on that one) - there is lots of general advice, but usually it involves Nvidia cards [23:07] i'm just wondering, besides the fact you all most likely run kubuntu what would you recommend to a newb? as a good distro to start with? [23:07] rp2: again, I can't help you with that [23:07] no problem ... [23:07] NiNes: well, Kubuntu of course :) [23:07] Does anyone know how to change the cursor from Hardware mode to Software mode?

[23:09] one thing i haven't figured out is how to get a decent resolution, but I'm afraid that's Xorg related rather than KDE related [23:09] NiNes: it was for me [23:09] but then again, I used to be a SOlaris sysadmin [23:09] i'm the new guy i installed ubuntu last night, freaked out then installed (came running back to windows) windows 7 RC [23:10] NiNes: I've tried a few distros, I like kubuntu the best (I'm also a newbie) [23:10] Zeik: I don't. do you realize Zeik is the Dutch word for 'piss'? [23:10] NiNes: what made you freak out? too many things to figure out? [23:10] rosco_y, thanks thats something i needed to hear! [23:11] NiNes: I think you'll like kubuntu [23:11] rp2, kind of just the fact it was gnome, maybe. just different in alot of big ways to windows. which is all i know [23:12] I used both gnome and the kde window managers, I personally like kde [23:12] NiNes, rosco_y please, this is off-topic here, discussions is in #kubuntu-offtopic [23:12] Mamarok: noted, Thank you. [23:13] yes, but KDE is different as well .. .I don't expect it will be much more like Windows. I have always found it a lot more pleasant than Gnome though ... hard to say why. a little smoother, better looking, easier to use, but that's just my impression [23:13] Mamarok: why is it off-topic? [23:13] rp2: offtopic, please stop that === rosco_y is now known as rosco_away [23:13] discussion, this channel is for support only [23:13] oh wait NiNes hasn't tried kubuntu yet. sorry.
