[00:48] Hello, I am on debian trying to put the kubuntu live image into a usb drive. I tried with dd if=path-to-image of=/dev/sdc bs=1M (and bs=8M). The system wont boot from it. What to do? [00:50] i got an easy one yall, how can i change my text color that you see when i chat online? [00:51] im willing to download a new irc program if i have to [00:52] xchat [00:52] i'm using konversation right now [00:52] ok cool!! i have xchat and konversation as well [00:52] better than xchat in my opionio [00:52] why? [00:53] i know cntrl + k works on konversation but do you really have to hit those buttons every single time you send a message? [00:53] no [00:53] i wanna just set it and forget it [00:53] it's a kde 4 application, better interface and dcc support [00:54] config ur colors just like u do on window using mirc [00:54] never used mirc [00:54] i hate mirc [00:54] Setting/Preference in xchat [00:54] please i need help [00:54] i got something about chrome [00:55] from man page: Google Chrome has hundreds of undocumented command-line flags... [00:55] you want to display the colors you want but not show them to all the channel or? [00:55] just wanna ctrl-k a bit? [00:57] i want the color that people will see (backround: blue foreground:white and bold text) i dont want just for me to see it I want everyone to see it so its easier to find what i write [00:57] ctrl-k [00:57] :P [00:57] and... cntrl-k does not let you set bold [00:57] really? [00:57] really? [00:57] :P [00:58] ctrl+b [00:58] test [00:58] ok i will try [00:58] thats in konversation? [00:58] on irc at all [00:59] cntrl+b brings up a bookmarks window [00:59] iḿ on quassel right now cntrl+k does nothing [00:59] possible just like ctrl-i for italic supress my window bar [00:59] stupid alias [00:59] neither does cntrl-b [00:59] you can change that [01:00] can try irssi too [01:00] ir on your console [01:00] *irc [01:01] why is this so easy to do when you access the chat through the website (you just click the color you want and thats it) [01:01] whats irssi [01:01] another irc client [01:01] open console and type irssi [01:01] old school but efficient [01:01] you can for sure change your text color on that (iḿ tires of downloading tons of irc programs just for one little option that seem like it should be mandatory) [01:02] u probably already have irssi [01:02] for what you want to do you probably need to script alittle tho [01:03] ok iḿa kinda new to linux (sorry had for about 1 month and trying hard to learn) could you walk me step by step? [01:03] to display colors to everyone whitout messing with ctrl-k b i all the time [01:03] ok and what program am i doing this for? [01:05] u can modify your script from almost any irc client [01:05] is that hard? [01:05] no but u got to get use to it [01:05] * B|aSS is back (gone 18:38:59) [01:07] this should give you some basic pal: [01:07] http://www.ircbeginner.com/ircinfo/colors.html [01:07] is it something i just do once, then i dont need to do it again, i have like a theme the i always want to use when i chat (blue and white) so i wouldnt need to change it back and forth [01:08] yeaj kind off just step tro the basic look that website i gave you [01:08] plenty of info to begin with that [01:08] what's KPackage website? [01:09] btw Iḿ also very new to chattin (like 4 days new) i only started because frostwire has it as an option while your downloading [01:09] thank you bjass! [01:09] np pal [01:11] http://konversation.kde.org/ [01:11] should be usefull too if u wanna stick with konversation [01:12] and i wanna chat without using the frostwire tab because it slows down my system, so i figured chatting on a irc program would be a way around that (but i really want to do the color thing, which is so easy on frostwire program you wouldnt believe, next to your text you just choose the color click on it and boom its done!) [01:12] especialy this section: http://docs.kde.org/development/en/extragear-network/konversation/scripting.html [01:13] thanks B iḿ bookmarking all these, are there any others? [01:13] should be a good starting point pal [01:15] so whatever the irc client u use there a way to script it and modify it the way you want [01:16] you know what i can say this, i considerd myself great with computers (always fixed everybodies) but when i switched to linux a month ago, i find myself getting frustrated doing what i think would be such simple things [01:16] can add stuff to menu and have your client to display text the way you want either to you or to the public [01:16] yeah thats the transition [01:17] but it so f****** deserve it [01:17] i like quassel the best because of its look and design but i also downloaded xchat and konversation to look for the color option [01:17] everything so more simple once you get use to it [01:17] it faster as well [01:18] so there must be a way to configure and script this quassel pal [01:20] yeah i only have kubuntu on this machine (pentium 4 3.ghz 1gb ram and 64mb nvidia geforce2 mx/mx400) and I only use my other machine to play video games because it has a better graphics card [01:20] so far i would say if you dont play video games use linux [01:21] even if you do :P [01:21] i play pokerstars on karmic [01:21] no problem [01:21] but there no pokerstars client for linux [01:22] using WINE [01:22] heard its buggy for big game but would be curious to try it [01:22] just that i have ps3 so not a big need here :> [01:22] yeah i been reading up on wine but the only video game i play (civilization iv) only has a gold ratiing and Iḿ not into all those terminal things yet [01:23] once you got wine you install stuff just like in window [01:23] click next next next finish [01:23] i dont even wanna get into the terminal to tell the truth [01:23] you should pal [01:24] could eventually avoid you a format coz ur stock in console mode and do know what to do [01:24] ive been into computers since dos (1992) and i tell you what i dont miss those days [01:24] *dont [01:24] waiting? [01:24] hehehe [01:25] well [01:25] dos shit [01:25] linux console provide the jedi power! [01:25] :) [01:25] main reason i switched is because of virus´s lol [01:26] yeah but dont forget to put a firewall tho [01:26] yeah i thought with my experience the transition would be alot faster... i was wrong [01:26] i havent done that lol [01:26] havent put firewall [01:26] got the choice [01:26] Iptable if you wanna play [01:26] firestarter just from now should do the job [01:27] * clone1018|afk is away: Gone away for now === clone1018|afk is now known as clone1018 [01:27] * clone1018 is back. [01:27] is that something you can get from adept or kpackagekit ? [01:27] talking about firestarter [01:27] linux safe for virus but you need to protect your traffic else many scanner gonna try to hit on you [01:27] oh yes pal [01:28] just type firestarter in one of these package manager [01:28] or sudo apt-get it [01:29] and its not a big deal to install/configure [01:29] see i would think that would be something that comes standard with kubuntu [01:29] nice graphical interface no need console [01:30] im pretty new to k/ubuntu as well [01:30] 7 days [01:30] but i know linux since i was 15-16 [01:30] how old now? [01:30] 29 [01:31] always been on irc since then [01:31] oh wow iḿ 27 so i was thinking i should have started with regular ubuntu [01:31] even with windows [01:31] thats same pal [01:31] kubuntu ubuntu [01:31] wanna ubuntu? [01:32] sudo apt-get gnome [01:32] :) [01:32] xubuntu [01:32] same [01:32] xfce [01:32] B|aSS: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:32] ok Bot.

[01:35] 950mgz with 30gb 10 yo compaq pressario [01:35] got 370ram + or less [01:35] and no prob having both [01:36] gnome kde [01:36] even xfce [01:36] depend how i feel ;) [01:36] u in florida?

[01:39] hehe [01:40] basic with console to get yourself out of trouble when you have some (pretty rare) [01:40] well i mean i know how to do what i reallllllly need to do (surf the web, play music and such) but now i find myself stuck trying do personal things like change the way my text looks while chatting and such [01:41] yeah this will involve some scripting or to find a script that does that for the client u use [01:41] or the old ctrl + k [01:41] :P [01:42] yeah iḿ not going to settle for hitting ctrl+k every time i wanna say something (i type alot when i chat) [01:42] hehe [01:42] thats just not going to cut it, i need to find another solution [01:42] so write or find a script for ur client [01:44] once you get use to it you can built the menu of your irc client and be able to run almost anny apps you commonly use by starting them from your irc client menu [01:44] use to do that back in the time with window and mirc [01:45] also you know what when i boot up it says something like: cannot find drive ss34-sdfjkl-34jkj-djfkjd -343kd : hit any button to continue, i hit a button to continue same thing, so i hold shift and then edit and delete that line and cool!!! it starts up.... but i dont wanna do that everytime (although i dont mind it, becuase i leave the computer running all the time, i dont reboot much) [01:46] you got sound video everything?

[02:40] yeah iḿ telling you man... my switch to linux has been problems left and right [02:40] ur just unlucky bro [02:40] hor have very shitty hardware :s [02:41] for myself its first time install was that easy since i know linux [02:41] ok i first tried dual boot to try out.... couldnt even install kubuntu....then i just complete format my hardrive, and installed kubuntu (but with the alternative install) and it finally worked (with a few problems i had to figure out on my own) [02:41] B|aSS: linux hardware support is still lacking [02:42] yeah i must have shitty hardware....but i thought the whole point of installing linux is for when you have shitty hardware [02:42] hehehehe [02:42] good point [02:43] well i saw some reports about problem on internet [02:43] suprise to see that 20% of folks had difficulty like you [02:43] i mean my processor is faster than yours, iḿ wondering though what graphic card you have [02:44] count myself being lucky to be on the other 80% [02:44] ;) [02:44] 8mb nvidia [02:45] i remeber tho times ago having lots of problem with a similar distro reputed to be easy and stuff [02:45] mandrake 8 [02:45] on a older pc then this one [02:46] weeks of pain [02:46] oh wow (no disrespect) your system sucks hardcore compared to mine, can you enable desktop effects ....like the cube [02:46] did not tryed yet [02:46] 8 mb nvidia!!!!!!!!!! how do you get by??????????????
