| garyliang | New kubuntu need help! My laptop is old Thinkpad, ATI radeon x1300. Q 1: Thousands of effects don't work. Q2: Sound card does't work | 04:36 |
| Guest26289 | I can't get k3dsurf to work on ubuntu 9.04. I saw that there were several errors documented, but does anyone know if there has been a fix yet? | 04:39 |
| garyliang | no one s here..... | 04:40 |
| PodeCoet | I'll probably get kicked for saying this | 04:41 |
| maco | PodeCoet: then dont? | 04:41 |
| maco | garyliang: might be better to try in #ubuntu | 04:41 |
| maco | garyliang: also helps to state which version you're using. 9.04, 9.10, etc | 04:41 |
| garyliang | 9.10 | 04:42 |
| garyliang | thanks:) | 04:42 |
| PodeCoet | garyliang: Honestly, for that laptop I highly recommend trying out Linux Mint 7. My laptop has crappier specs, and its an absolute dream with all compiz effects enabled (didnt work so well under kubuntu) | 04:43 |
| PodeCoet | All my desktops run Kubuntu though | 04:43 |
| PodeCoet | /hides | 04:43 |
| maco | oh. you can say mint :P | 04:44 |
| PodeCoet | oh and of course, the wakeup/hibernate bug doesnt exist :P | 04:44 |
| maco | garyliang: in that case #ubuntu+1 | 04:44 |
| PodeCoet | haha mint is based on ubuntu anyway right? | 04:44 |
| maco | PodeCoet: we dont do mint support in here, but you can suggest it to someone... | 04:44 |
| garyliang | what is mint | 04:44 |
| PodeCoet | garyliang: its another linux distro, which feels like ubuntu only more polished | 04:45 |
| maco | garyliang: ubuntu-based distro with codecs and skype and such pre-installed, a different menu, and a different theme. but im pretty sure its gnome..... | 04:45 |
| PodeCoet | yeah, they have a KDE version too, but the gnome one is far better on laptops (performance wise), the KDE one sorta stutters with compiz | 04:45 |
| PodeCoet | this comming for a diehard KDE fan :P | 04:45 |
| maco | why use compiz when kwin has lots of effects too? | 04:46 |
| PodeCoet | additional eyecandy of course :P | 04:46 |
| garyliang | thanks guys, I'll do some research on mint. haha | 04:47 |
| PodeCoet | plus I get lots of video tearing with KWin during video playback, ccsm under compiz allows you to set vblank/etc, tearing issue disappears | 04:47 |
| PodeCoet | (damn ATI cards!) | 04:47 |
| maco | !ohmy | PodeCoet | 04:47 |
| ubottu | PodeCoet: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. | 04:47 |

| PodeCoet | I'll rephrase, the gentlemen at ATi are extremely plain. | 04:49 |

| raveland | Installed kubuntu 9.04 but Grub never loads, have set the partition to active dunno what to do more, just a _ blinking in the top left corner when i boot | 12:19 |
| raveland | does anyone have a clue what might be wrong? tried reinstalling Grub to the mbr from the live-cd , no errors. | 12:21 |
| dmatt | raveland: tried pressing escape to enter grub menu? | 12:23 |
| raveland | yes nothing happens, just keeps blinking | 12:24 |
| dmatt | is grub installed on hda1/sda1? | 12:25 |
| raveland | i have a dual-boot setup, win7 on a nividia fakeraid and then another disk with kubuntu | 12:25 |
| raveland | grub is on sdc1 | 12:25 |
| dmatt | did it worked before? | 12:26 |
| raveland | no it never worked | 12:26 |
| raveland | but if i enter with the live-cd it shows the partitions and everything looks ok | 12:27 |
| raveland | in fdisk | 12:27 |
| dmatt | what is on sda? you probably need to install something there, which would chainload to sdc | 12:27 |
| raveland | yeah well the problem is sda+sdb is a raid 0 thing, but its not hardware raid so kubuntu sees them as 2 different disks | 12:28 |
| raveland | if i choose the raid disks as boot order 1 in bios then win7 loads, if i choose SDC as boot order 1 then the blinking thingy comes | 12:30 |
| robin0800 | raveland: its shift now not escape | 12:31 |
| raveland | oh ok, didnt try pressing shift, but isnt the grub menu suppose to appear automatically? | 12:32 |
| dmatt | robin0800: raveland is on 9.04 | 12:33 |
| dmatt | grub1 | 12:33 |
| raveland | it sounds like the bios is looking for something to boot because the hdd is reading, then it stops and the bliking never ends | 12:34 |
| raveland | will it make a difference if i change to 9.10? | 12:34 |
| uzunlar | slm | 12:35 |
| uzunlar | :D | 12:35 |
| dmatt | raveland, you can still install it on sda | 12:35 |
| dmatt | i mean grub | 12:35 |
| raveland | but wont that mess up my raid config, im thinking that the mbr is shared because its in raid? | 12:35 |
| dmatt | sdb is second raid disc? | 12:35 |
| raveland | yes | 12:36 |
| dmatt | shouldn't you have 3 discs in bios to chose one to boot from? | 12:36 |
| tr3e | does anyone else have issues with KOffice font rendering? | 12:37 |
| raveland | well bios recognizes the raid so sda and sdb is one and then sdc is one | 12:37 |
| dmatt | because if you choose second raid sdb, obviosly grub on sdc does not work | 12:37 |
| raveland | yeah well in bios it even states the name of the discs and i put it on the samsung one, the others are wd | 12:38 |
| dmatt | you said is software raid ?? | 12:38 |

| mattias_ | hi, can someone help me guiding step by step setup virtual box to run an existing windows xp partition? | 12:45 |
| dmatt | raveland: i think it is bios thing as it never gets to grub, otherwise you would get some grub error | 12:46 |

| JontheEchidna | not intended for home use, but some say it already works quite well. It's a bit bleeding-edge | 14:28 |
| JontheEchidna | wickedguy: you can enable this from the sources editor | 14:28 |
| JontheEchidna | kdesudo software-properties-kde | 14:28 |

| JontheEchidna | wickedguy: ^ | 14:29 |
| ugur | JontheEchidna: In the cdimage site i see only nightly builds for kubuntu netbook release instead of a beta or RC | 14:29 |

| robin0800 | bambule: graphic driver problem slow page rendering? | 16:48 |
| bambule | robin0800: hmm, not sure if it fits the bill. the rest of the system is snappy. desktop effects are fast. also when i just open the browser and try to load a single page. i can see in wireshark that the browser is resolving the address and than is doing nothing. it has at this point no data to render... | 16:51 |
| eshat | hi all.... I noticed that windows 7 runs much faster than kde 4.3.2. can that be ? it may also be, that KDE is not optimized for fullHD monitors yet. | 16:51 |

| rafytafy | is the new kubuntu out yet | 17:33 |
| maco | rafytafy: not til thursday | 17:33 |
| rafytafy | and is there a way to find out which chipsets are supported in the kubuntu kernel for the new release | 17:33 |
| maco | chipsets of....? | 17:33 |
| maco | you can try booting from the RC live cd to see if it supports your hardware | 17:34 |
| rafytafy | i have a new mobo msi 790fx gd70 and cant get certain functions to work under my current 8.04 | 17:34 |
| maco | are you referring to audio, video, wireless...what sort of chipset? | 17:34 |
| rafytafy | was wondering if there is a data sheet or something of that sort for the new release | 17:34 |
| rafytafy | such as sensors etc etc | 17:34 |
| maco | no | 17:35 |
| rafytafy | ok :( | 17:35 |
| rafytafy | guess i will have to d/l and try | 17:35 |
| maco | youd have to go through the kernel changelog | 17:35 |
| rafytafy | yeah i thought as much..i figured i could run the live cd, install the sensors monitors and see if they work i suppose | 17:35 |
| rafytafy | bah i hope they work by 10.4 | 17:36 |
| === udo is now known as udo_ | ||

| maco | its release candidate | 17:39 |
| rafytafy | ah so i might as well try it today huh | 17:39 |

| rafytafy | sudo apt-get install firefox | 17:41 |
| Shockrates | i have | 17:41 |
| Shockrates | how can i make it my default browser | 17:41 |
| maco | Shockrates: system settings -> default applications -> web browser | 17:41 |
| Shockrates | and not konq | 17:41 |
| rafytafy | has dolphin been scrapped from use? i am still on 8.04 | 17:42 |
| maco | dolphin is the file manager | 17:42 |
| maco | konq is the browser | 17:42 |
| rafytafy | ah, but one could change that | 17:42 |
| maco | yes you can use konq for everthing if you want | 17:42 |
| rafytafy | yup i do | 17:42 |
| Mamarok | rafytafy: give it a try first, there have been a lot of changes since 8.04 :) | 17:42 |
| rafytafy | really :O | 17:42 |
| maco | i like dolphin | 17:43 |
| Mamarok | well, 8.04 was 18 months ago :) | 17:43 |
| maco | i switched to kubuntu with 9.04 | 17:43 |
| * Mamarok uses dolphin only | 17:43 | |
| maco | soo much nicer than ubuntu's file browser | 17:43 |
| rafytafy | in 8.04 my dolphin has some stupid bugs, like reporting a 1tb drive as 1gig | 17:43 |
| Mamarok | rafytafy: that was a long time ago, really, try it out | 17:43 |
| Shockrates | cya thanks | 17:43 |
| rafytafy | i will as soon as i install new kubuntu | 17:43 |
| maco | thats 3 kde releases ago | 17:43 |
| maco | we're on 4.3.1 in 9.10 | 17:44 |
| rafytafy | darn | 17:44 |
| rafytafy | i am in the past huh | 17:44 |
| maco | yeah ;) | 17:44 |
| rafytafy | i am attracted to the long term support of the LTS releases I guess | 17:44 |
| Mamarok | maco: actually, it's KDE 4.3.2 | 17:44 |
| maco | i think i poked at 4.0 once and went back to gnome. since 4.2 its been really cool | 17:44 |
| maco | Mamarok: oh! | 17:44 |
| maco | rafytafy: 8.04 isnt lts for kubuntu | 17:44 |
| Vroomfondle | 4.3 is miles better than 4.0/4.1 were | 17:44 |
| rafytafy | maco: but kernel updates are | 17:45 |
| maco | yes | 17:45 |
| rafytafy | maco: the rest i attempt to update on my own, yes I know..not a good idea in general | 17:45 |
| Mamarok | rafytafy: well, you also get kernel upgrades for all the other releases during 18 months | 17:45 |
| rafytafy | yeah thats what i read 18 months on wiki | 17:46 |
| rafytafy | I do with certain things like games were kept up to date on kubuntu | 17:46 |
| rafytafy | wish* | 17:46 |
| Mamarok | rafytafy: well, all KDE games are up-to-date as of KDE 4.3.2, else you might give Neon a try | 17:47 |
| Mamarok | it builds nightly from KDE trunk | 17:47 |
| Mamarok | and isntalls in a sandbox so it doesn't affect your usual build | 17:47 |
| === rafael_carreras_ is now known as rafael_carreras | ||

| rafytafy | ah ok | 17:49 |
| Byron | Can someone help me determine if my motherboard and/or system specs are no longer supported? | 17:49 |
| Byron | I've been having issues for the last 2-3 releases | 17:50 |
| Vroomfondle | what kind of issues? | 17:50 |
| Byron | Network suddenly drops, video freezes for no determined reason, and a few others. those 2 are the most common/irritating. | 17:51 |
| Vroomfondle | tbh the video thing could be a bug in earlier versions of KDE4 | 17:52 |
| Vroomfondle | do the same problems occur in Karmic? | 17:53 |
| mark_ | tried installing kubuntu 9.04 several times on my new laptop , install reaches 30% then gives me the [Errno5] input/output error | 17:53 |
| Mamarok | Byron: the easiest way to test is to fire up a live CD, if it runs, then your hardware is supported | 17:53 |
| Byron | I don't have Karmic | 17:53 |
| mark_ | ive been trying with no luck for 3 days any ideas? | 17:53 |
| Mamarok | Byron: did you try with another CD, could be a problem with the CD | 17:53 |
| maco | mark_: Mamarok was talking to you | 17:53 |
| mark_ | the copy of the CD was shipped to me directly from cononical and ive checked it for defects | 17:54 |
| maco | how's your cd drive? | 17:54 |
| Byron | Mamarok: I've tried various things and things suddenly fail at random. It's hard for me to isolate and troubleshoot. | 17:54 |
| Mamarok | oops, sorry, wrong nick | 17:55 |
| mark_ | ive also tried installing ubuntu 9.04 and 8.10 with the same error | 17:55 |
| maco | (guess how i first realized the cd drive was broken in my other laptop?) | 17:55 |
| Byron | Another thing too, which isn't so high on my list, is USB. I plug in my external 500GB device and it either won't read it or sees it then drops it. | 17:55 |
| mark_ | the cd/dvd drive is working fine | 17:55 |
| mark_ | laptop is brande new and had vista on it | 17:56 |
| Mamarok | mark_: you should check a) the CD integrity (there is an option in the first menu) and b) check the integrity of your hard disk, the tools are on the Live CD as well | 17:56 |
| Byron | As for USB transfers, they randomly fail. I see them moving, at a steady pace, then they speed drops to zero within 10 seconds. | 17:56 |
| mark_ | ive ran all the tools from the live cd | 17:56 |
| maco | maybe the lens needs to be cleaned? i found that my drive was broken just enough to fail at installing but it could still play cds ok for a while...before it started to freak out when trying to rip them | 17:56 |
| mark_ | several times | 17:56 |
| mark_ | also did a mem test all works fine | 17:56 |
| maco | the hard disk test? | 17:56 |
| Mamarok | mark_: and you can run the live CD? | 17:57 |
| mark_ | yes the live cd works fine | 17:57 |
| * Mamarok remembers having had problems with CDs, too, even on a new laptop | 17:57 | |
| Mamarok | so usually changing CD is a good idea | 17:57 |
| Mamarok | or, if you can boot your computer with an USB stick, try installing from a USB stick | 17:58 |
| ponting | any one tell me client that supports cam chat of MSN ..... | 17:58 |
| maco | ponting: kopete should... | 17:58 |
| mark_ | seems a usb stick install is my only option | 17:59 |
| maco | ponting: in channel please | 17:59 |
| nightwlkr | mark u having error during installation or while starting in the first place | 17:59 |
| Mamarok | mark_: well, as I said, changing CD is usually the easiest to do | 17:59 |
| nikitis | Where is kubuntu's firewall options located at? | 18:00 |
| Mamarok | during installation, nightwlkr | 18:00 |
| ponting | no its not working ... | 18:00 |
| Byron | Is there someway of troubleshooting my network issue before my desktop decides its time to take a break (freeze)? | 18:00 |
| nightwlkr | i went through hell installing kubuntu maybe i went through that also :P | 18:00 |
| maco | nikitis: you can install guarddog if you want a kde front end to iptables | 18:00 |
| maco | nikitis: if you dont mind command line, you can modify iptables directly | 18:00 |
| nikitis | maco: i'm having troubles with ventrilo synchronizing to servers | 18:01 |
| nightwlkr | if it creates partition tables and u get that error during file copying than ur cd is damaged | 18:01 |
| ponting | use USB startup disc creator ......... i always use it to switch to newer version ... | 18:01 |
| Byron | can I obtain Karmic at this time to test? | 18:01 |
| Byron | I know the release date is only a week away, but still | 18:02 |
| Mamarok | Byron: see the topic, please | 18:02 |
| nightwlkr | also make sure when burning a new cd from an iso the md5 sum check works fine..cause my iso which was on the hard drive working previously was causing this issue..so had to download the whole thing again | 18:02 |
| Byron | reading... | 18:02 |
| Byron | Sorry about that. I'm going to get the ISO now. Thanks. | 18:03 |
| mark_ | i have already installed the same cd of kubuntu on several different pc's with no problem | 18:03 |
| nightwlkr | so what's the error with this 1? | 18:03 |
| mark_ | this new Acer just wont partition for some reason | 18:04 |
| nightwlkr | laptop? | 18:04 |
| Mamarok | mark_: you can try with a command line tool like gparted, it's on the live CD, too | 18:04 |
| mark_ | installs to 30% and sometimes 60% then error | 18:04 |
| Mamarok | hm, partitioning is done long before 30% | 18:05 |
| mark_ | yes it is an Acer aspire 4520 | 18:05 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest99893 | ||
| nightwlkr | could b a cdd drive issue | 18:05 |
| mark_ | thats what im thinking | 18:05 |
| nightwlkr | cause u said sometimes it's stopping on 30% sometimes on 60 | 18:06 |
| nightwlkr | if it was the cd or any other problem it should always stop same place | 18:06 |
| mark_ | some others have suggested switcjing cd/dvd drives | 18:06 |
| ponting_ | use usb dude | 18:06 |
| nightwlkr | had that problem :P | 18:06 |
| mark_ | like i said its brande new and had vista working fine on it | 18:06 |
| nightwlkr | mark_: what ponting_ suggested might b the best option | 18:07 |
| nightwlkr | guarantee no lense or cd problems :P | 18:07 |
| mark_ | i will give it a try | 18:07 |
| nightwlkr | by the way even new drives sometimes have problems..nowadays everything low quality :P | 18:08 |
| mark_ | i agree | 18:08 |
| nightwlkr | i buy alot of computer parts..15% go back cause it works with some cd's and doesn't read most of them or reads half the cd | 18:09 |
| ponting_ | lolzz | 18:09 |
| ponting_ | i do also have problems with maa DVD drive..it boots well with DVD>.but stucks up in between ..with CD'sss | 18:09 |
| nightwlkr | ponting_: did u try a firmware upgrade? | 18:09 |
| ponting_ | let it be any boot item ...kubuntu, hiren, win 7 !! | 18:10 |
| Byron | I just read the 9.10 documentation, upgrade steps, etc. I'm impressed. :) | 18:10 |
| nightwlkr | ponting_: firmware upgrade for the dvd drive :P not ur os | 18:10 |
| ponting_ | no i didn't. | 18:10 |

| ponting_ | nightwlkr:will tht work | 18:11 |
| nightwlkr | sometimes yes..if the problem is the software in the drive that's not letting it function normally a firmware upgrade might fix it | 18:11 |
| nightwlkr | what brand is it? LG? | 18:12 |

| Byron | 9.10 torrent will take 1d7h to finish. Any faster method known? | 18:16 |
| Mamarok | Byron: it will speed up over time if there are enough seeders | 18:16 |
| Mamarok | Byron: or download directly from a mirror close to you, but if you have a slow connection it will not get better | 18:17 |
| neospd | Please help with Ati | 18:18 |
| genii | Byron: If you have 2 machines to work with, you can run the same torrent on both, they will pick up different pieces from each other, then share them with each other at faster speeds than with other boxes on the internet-at-large | 18:19 |
| nightwlkr | neospd: what's ur problem with the ATI? | 18:20 |

| Pete_R | Hello! Can someone tell me please how can I write with romanian diacritics in kubuntu? | 20:06 |
| Byron | Can I safely upgrade to ext4 from ext3 without losing data or formatting? | 20:11 |
| Mr-S^b32 | Byron : In theorie yes, but i would not bet on it. | 20:12 |
| Mamarok | Byron: backup your data first, always the best choice :) | 20:13 |
| Byron | Mamarok: I have the desktop from hell. It will drop off the network randomly, freeze when it wants to and not let me even see my 500GB external device. | 20:14 |
| Mamarok | Byron: you can backup from a console with rsync, no need for a desktop | 20:14 |
| Mamarok | Byron: do you have your /home on a separate partition? | 20:15 |
| Byron | It's not even that. The thing is just being stupid. | 20:15 |
| Mamarok | if yes, then a clean install is the easiest and best solution | 20:15 |
| Byron | No, I have not separated the mount points as I have been wanting to do so | 20:15 |
| Mr-S^b32 | sounds more like a hardware issue to me ... | 20:15 |
| Mamarok | Byron: separating that is always a good idea, believe me | 20:16 |
| Mamarok | the freezes could be your graphic card driver, X can be very picky | 20:16 |
| Mamarok | drop of the network, Lan or Wlan? And put your external HD in fstab with a label so it gets mounted by default | 20:17 |
| Byron | Mamarok: nVidia 7600GS 512MB | 20:17 |
| Mamarok | Byron: I am not the card specialist, but there have been reports on all graphic cards with problems, just different ones | 20:18 |
| Mamarok | ATI has dropped cards from their driver, the Intel chipset in the eeePc is broken in Ubuntu and Nvidia has also its share of problems | 20:18 |
| Mamarok | if only every manufacturer would provide free drivers *sigh* | 20:19 |
| Byron | Quick breakdown: Abit VT7 motherboard with P4 3.2GHz 478-pin processor, 4GB RAM, 1TB HDD (Seagate) SATA, nVidia 7600GS 512MB VRAM. | 20:19 |
| Mamarok | Byron: which Nvidia driver, Kubuntu version, KDE version? | 20:21 |
| Byron | Directly from nVidia. The Kubuntu/KDE versions don't give me a GUI | 20:21 |
| Mamarok | ouch... | 20:21 |
| Byron | Yeah. | 20:21 |
| Byron | I built this desktop myself back in the end of 2004. It's worked very well since then until about Sept/Oct 2008 | 20:22 |
| Mamarok | no, I said ouch because you don't use the offically provided drivers, which are probably the best solution, so which driver number is this? | 20:22 |
| jwx | hi, how do i start a kde app with a specific (another) kde style? | 20:22 |
| Byron | I don't recall off the top of my head. It's 18x. | 20:23 |
| Byron | one-eighty something | 20:23 |
| Mamarok | Byron: 185 would make sense, that's the latest in Jaunty | 20:24 |
| Byron | That sounds about right. | 20:24 |
| Mamarok | jwx: I don't know, sorry, never used that | 20:25 |
| jwx | Mamarok: ok | 20:25 |
| Mamarok | jwx: any particular style/app you want to use? Avoid Bespin with Amarok, it breaks the app, just so you know | 20:26 |
| matahari | hi all! I wanted to ask if it is possible that i make a second install on my harddisk resizing the current logical ext2 partition and create a second logical partition? And after migrating all data and testing the new system, can i remove the first logical partition and resize the second partition to the whole size again? | 20:28 |
| jwx | Mamarok: ok.. it's opera.. dark colorscheme messed it up.. running it under default color scheme would be enough guess | 20:29 |
| Mamarok | matahari: yes, it's possible, but I guess you talk about ext3, don't you? | 20:30 |
| matahari | Mamarok: yes, sorry.... | 20:30 |
| Mamarok | jwx: since it's not a KDE app I am not sure this is possible | 20:30 |
| matahari | Mamarok: does it make a difference, though? | 20:30 |
| Mamarok | matahari: well, yes ext2 is quite old and nobody uses it anymore, the next release will use ext4 btw | 20:31 |
| matahari | i'm using the "alpha" here (now it's RC i know ;-) ) ;-) | 20:31 |
| matahari | Mamarok: that's why i want to change: test ext4 and use 64bit instead of 32bit | 20:32 |
| Mamarok | matahari: if you didn't do a fresh install with it then you still have ext3, unless you changed already in Jaunty | 20:32 |
| matahari | Mamarok: do you know if 64bit will increase performance on a core2duo mobile? | 20:32 |
| Mamarok | matahari: well, I run Karmic 64bit since quite some time, and it works well | 20:32 |
| jwx | Mamarok: it's the version using the qt library.. anyway will look into it | 20:32 |
| Mamarok | matahari: not sure it makes much sense to have such a hassle with resizing partitions | 20:33 |
| matahari | Mamarok: well, but i have no space on an external HDD for a backup :-( | 20:34 |
| Mamarok | matahari: the best would be to have your /home on a separate partition, so you can just do a fresh install which takes less than 30 minutes, much faster than repartitioning 4 times | 20:34 |
| matahari | Mamarok: but this would be not good for a change from 32 to 64 bit, right? | 20:34 |
| Mamarok | matahari: well, resizing partitions without a backup is a bad idea anyway, you should avoid that | 20:34 |
| matahari | Mamarok: or doesn't this affect the home partiition as well? | 20:34 |
| matahari | Mamarok: OK | 20:35 |
| Mamarok | matahari: doy ou already have your /home on a separate partition? | 20:35 |
| matahari | Mamarok: so i'll look for some space somewhere.... | 20:35 |
| matahari | Mamarok: not yet | 20:35 |
| Mamarok | you should, it really spares you time later | 20:35 |
| matahari | Mamarok: how much space did you leave for / ? | 20:36 |
| Mamarok | matahari: that depends on how much you are going to install, only KDE? | 20:37 |
| Mamarok | matahari: then 10-15 Gb are enough and leave you with some space | 20:38 |
| matahari | well, i'll install a webserver, an IDE (eclipse and co), and some other useful software | 20:39 |
| matahari | how much space does KDE use? | 20:39 |
| Mamarok | matahari: well, that depends if you install with or without the debugging packages, and if you install only the apps you need or a full KDE with all apps | 20:39 |
| matahari | Mamarok: never a full KDE, only basic stuff and some apps i want. Without debugging packages. | 20:40 |
| * Mamarok has 30Gb for / and 120 Gb for /home | 20:40 | |
| matahari | Mamarok: seems like a good solution | 20:41 |
| Mamarok | matahari: it totally depends on your own needs and the size of your HD | 20:41 |
| matahari | Mamarok: 150 GiB | 20:41 |
| matahari | Mamarok: so i will use the same setup as you have | 20:41 |
| Mamarok | I have a full KDE here and QtCreator + some Gnome apps and close to all -dbg packages, it takes about 10.5 Gb | 20:42 |
| matahari | Mamarok: it seems like you are not running out of space with yours | 20:42 |
| Mamarok | matahari: don't forget the Swap space | 20:42 |
| matahari | Mamarok: wow | 20:42 |
| matahari | Mamarok: funnily, here i have 2 GiB of RAM, but it is never used. SWAP is ALWAYS empty | 20:42 |
| matahari | the system uses max. 700 MB or so | 20:42 |
| matahari | really funny | 20:42 |
| mhz` | you guys recommend a good dev. environment for php on ubuntu? | 20:42 |
| matahari | when i use Virtual Machines as well, it uses about 1.6 GiB | 20:43 |
| Mamarok | swap ? Ram*2, unless you have more than 4 Gb | 20:43 |
| Mamarok | mhz`: Quanta+ is nice | 20:43 |
| matahari | Mamarok: okay, so i will only leave / 28 and me 118 GiB ;-) | 20:44 |
| Mamarok | matahari: well, I run OpenGL and a lot of plasma apps, that takes some Ram :) | 20:44 |
| matahari | running the same here ^1 | 20:44 |
| matahari | ^^ | 20:44 |
| matahari | ;-) | 20:44 |
| matahari | really funny | 20:44 |
| FloodBotK2 | matahari: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 20:44 |
| matahari | my RAM is like the bag of mary poppins | 20:44 |
| Mamarok | well, Ram on Linux is at least used when necessary and freed when not, unlike other OS | 20:45 |
| matahari | Mamarok: yeah, seems so. I love Linux | 20:45 |
| matahari | Mamarok: okay, thank you for your advices | 20:45 |
| Mamarok | matahari: you are welcome :) | 20:45 |
| matahari | Mamarok: I will start making backups now, let's see where i can put all my stuff ;-) | 20:46 |
| matahari | Mamarok: bye! | 20:46 |
| Mamarok | matahari: rsync is your friend for that :) | 20:46 |
