| Eruaran | Does ANYONE know how to get an ATI HD 3650 working with Kubuntu WITHOUT one issue after another after another after another? | 04:03 |
| Eruaran | Right now I don't have a system that can remember its screen resolution when you reboot... can't do desktop compositing... can only play games, and if I go back to the radeon or radeonhd drivers, I will lose that | 04:04 |
| Eruaran | The proprietary fglrx driver seems to be the only one that you can play a 3d game with without a crash that will require a hard reset | 04:05 |
| Eruaran | But if I use that driver, I lose everything else. | 04:05 |
| Eruaran | This is just insane. | 04:05 |
| Eruaran | There's no way I could recommend ATI to any Linux user. | 04:06 |
| Eruaran | I have the proprietary fglrx driver installed | 04:22 |
| Eruaran | I have added ppa:info-g-com/xserver-xorg-1.7.6-gc which aparrently fixes a issue in xorg-server-core | 04:23 |
| Eruaran | I have changed my GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= from "quiet splash" to "quiet splash pci=use_crs" because aparrently the card fails to get properly allocated to the kernel... after doing this I no longer have to change my screen resolution every time after rebooting... but as usual, yet another problem is created - System Settings, KInfoCentre and the Catalyst control center all crash when you try to use them now. | 04:26 |
| Eruaran | And I still have no desktop compositing | 04:26 |
| Eruaran | And now games wont start either... | 04:27 |
| Eruaran | It seems that I just can't have a fully functioning system with an ATI graphics card | 04:29 |
| Eruaran | This is just as disappointing as the last time I was stupid enough to bother with ATI | 04:29 |
| === geowany`away is now known as geowany_ | ||
| jschall | Eruaran: i thought ati usually had the best linux support now | 04:34 |
| === avihay_ is now known as avihay | ||
| Eruaran | jschall: you've got to be joking | 04:35 |
| Eruaran | If I change "quiet splash pci=use_crs" back to just "quiet splash" I will be able to use System Settings etc again but my resolution will revert to 640x480 when I reboot, and I still wont have compositing. | 04:38 |
| Eruaran | When I Google for solutions I notice this goes back YEARS | 04:39 |
| Eruaran | not fixed | 04:39 |
| Eruaran | So... Now I've put my xorg.conf with the driver as "fglrx" back into /etc/X11 and System Settings, KinfoCenter and the Catalyst Control Center are working again | 04:46 |
| Eruaran | And now I'm back to having to manually change my screen resolution every time I reboot again | 04:46 |
| Eruaran | No desktop compositing | 04:46 |
| Eruaran | Aparrently the kernel module for my card is "unknown" | 04:47 |

| chakie | is it only me or has anyone else had problems with 9.10 in that the mouse suddenly stops working properly? | 08:41 |
| chakie | it moves, but clicking works only for some actions | 08:41 |
| chakie | it always means a restart of the desktop | 08:42 |
| chakie | interestingly, as soon as i've logged out (no x restart) it works again, so it feels like the kde desktop somehow does somethign interesting | 08:42 |
| chakie | i see that same problem on two totally different machines | 08:43 |
| chakie | sometimes happens 5 times per day, sometimes once | 08:43 |
| chakie | it's quite annoying | 08:43 |
| chakie | one other guy had reported a bug for it months ago, but the "responsible" person closed it as "nah, can't be a problem, you're doing it wrong" | 08:44 |
| GinoMan | I heard bug? | 08:45 |
| elcaset | sounds like a legit bug. | 08:47 |
| chakie | ah, found the bug and others seem to have it too | 08:51 |
| chakie | but that wasn't the one that was closed somewhat immediately | 08:51 |
| chakie | of course, launchpad seems broken at the moment | 08:52 |
| chakie | "This bug report will be marked for expiration in 32 days if no further activity occurs." | 08:52 |
| chakie | sounds like a good way to get rid of bugs | 08:53 |
| chakie | saving a bug comment should not take five minutes, right? | 08:53 |

| martin_ | heinkel_111: yeah, but that is easier than unlocking apt manually, in most cases | 14:25 |
| daniel__ | helo | 14:25 |
| heinkel_111 | martin_: you may be right, it is a long time since I had to | 14:26 |
| heinkel_111 | so I might have forgotten that | 14:26 |
| heinkel_111 | martin_: actually apt-get update and upgrade worked fine so I think basically the empty window was nothing left to update :-) | 14:29 |
| heinkel_111 | I am kind of new to the GUI version upgrade, until now I have done the text based one | 14:29 |
| heinkel_111 | but my dvd writer seems corrupted so now I upgrade across the net instead of in isolation | 14:30 |
| heinkel_111 | and figured out I should try the GUI tool since they appear to have improved a lot in the recent releases | 14:30 |
| martin_ | heinkel_111: could be too, yes :) | 14:38 |
| kenshi991 | hola | 15:21 |
| Klaus_Dieter | hello world | 15:24 |
| Klaus_Dieter | I am looking for a pendrive image for kubuntu. I am aware of different tutorials to create such an image using the install CD and syslinux however syslinux crashesi n the attempt on my system. | 15:25 |
| Klaus_Dieter | so I cannot make it bootable myself | 15:25 |
| Klaus_Dieter | CD image will not help as I do not have a cd drive in the computer in question | 15:26 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: Its easiest to use "usb-creator-kde" to install the cd image to a flash drive | 15:26 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: for that you have to have linux - I do not. | 15:27 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: currently only BSD systems around | 15:27 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: then unetbootin | 15:27 |
| Klaus_Dieter | I also do not have a windows around | 15:27 |
| Klaus_Dieter | either windows or linux is required for unetbootin | 15:28 |
| James147 | :( | 15:28 |
| Klaus_Dieter | chicken and egg | 15:28 |
| Klaus_Dieter | also I doubt it would help - I am not afraid of the console, it is just that the tool needed to make the thumb drive bootable is crashing | 15:29 |
| Klaus_Dieter | so if I download the netbook edition image, can I install a regular kubuntu using that? | 15:29 |
| Klaus_Dieter | hmm jsut seeing that this would not work as I want it to be amd64 | 15:30 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: yes and no... you will have to manually install kubuntu-desktop afterwards | 15:31 |
| Klaus_Dieter | ok | 15:31 |
| Klaus_Dieter | what about the switch from 32 to 64 bit? | 15:31 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: impossible | 15:31 |
| Klaus_Dieter | dang | 15:32 |
| elcaset | i wouldn't recommend 64bit yet, anyway. | 15:33 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: could you try installing grub instead of syslinux? | 15:33 |
| James147 | elcaset: why not? | 15:33 |
| elcaset | 32 bit is more stable. | 15:34 |
| James147 | elcaset: havent had any problems with 64bit... dont really see how its more stable | 15:34 |
| elcaset | good to hear. how about drivers? | 15:35 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: I cannot build it on this system as it can only be compiled on i386 | 15:35 |
| James147 | elcaset: no problems with dirvers at all | 15:35 |
| elcaset | sounds like 64 bit GNU/linux is improving. | 15:36 |
| Klaus_Dieter | elcaset: I have used it a couple years back and it was good | 15:39 |
| elcaset | kuhl. | 15:41 |
| Klaus_Dieter | the current version is maverick, right? | 15:43 |
| Torch | Klaus_Dieter: lucid. | 15:43 |
| Klaus_Dieter | maverick is the next? | 15:44 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: yes | 15:44 |
| Klaus_Dieter | thanks Torch and James147 | 15:52 |
| Klaus_Dieter | is there a kubuntu handbook? | 15:53 |
| Klaus_Dieter | thought so ;) | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | Klaus_Dieter, https://wiki.kubuntu.org/FAQ | 15:57 |
| Klaus_Dieter | cool BluesKaj thank you - I was looking for the software management part and it is on there | 15:58 |
| BluesKaj | Klaus_Dieter, lots of info in the message bar | 16:00 |
| Klaus_Dieter | Torch: James147 I think I found a solution and I am currently seeing whether it is successful: It is this site http://learn.clemsonlinux.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Install_from_USB_drive | 16:07 |
| Klaus_Dieter | it is basically an image with an empty fat16 file system having sylinux installed and enough room to pu the install CD iso on it. | 16:09 |
| Klaus_Dieter | during startup it will (hopefully) ask for the name of the iso | 16:09 |
| Klaus_Dieter | can I turn an ubuntu into a kubuntu? | 16:20 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: install "kubuntu-desktop" | 16:20 |
| === jasem is now known as Feer | ||
| Klaus_Dieter | taht is it? | 16:20 |
| Klaus_Dieter | coool | 16:20 |
| Klaus_Dieter | so I can install an ubuntu now, lateron apt-get kubuntu-desktop and I have a full-fledged kubuntu | 16:21 |
| James147 | well, that will give you both gnome and kde :) | 16:21 |
| Klaus_Dieter | ok | 16:21 |
| James147 | !purekde | Klaus_Dieter | 16:21 |
| ubottu | Klaus_Dieter: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 16:21 |
| Klaus_Dieter | so then the trouble is sweet | 16:22 |
| Klaus_Dieter | - so then the trouble is | 16:22 |
| Klaus_Dieter | I was gonna complete with 2removing gnome" | 16:22 |
| Klaus_Dieter | this is actually pretty cool this seems to work - it recognizes the CD | 16:36 |
| Klaus_Dieter | wow a monkey could install ubuntu | 16:51 |
| Klaus_Dieter | now I am not sure whether this is good or bad ;) | 16:51 |
| === bauerj|away is now known as bauerj | ||
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: easier to use is always good... unless you take away features to do it :) | 16:54 |
| Klaus_Dieter | well at some point there is an ease vs efficiency debate going on | 16:55 |
| Klaus_Dieter | or more specifically: intuition vs efficiency | 16:56 |
| Klaus_Dieter | but I see your point, it is hard to argue that an installer should be complex ;) | 16:57 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: and there is always the alternitive installer :) | 16:58 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: actually that is what I am using | 17:05 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: :D | 17:05 |
| Klaus_Dieter | I really do like the way the encryption is interwoven with the installer | 17:06 |
| Klaus_Dieter | and the "make it work" mentality taken for setting this up | 17:06 |
| Klaus_Dieter | its cool | 17:06 |
| martin_ | anyone with experience of fingerprints in linux? | 17:11 |
| === root is now known as Guest76633 | ||
| === ytoox is now known as anditosan | ||
| Klaus_Dieter | what do I do if I want to install a specific version of software that is not in the main repositories? | 17:29 |
| Klaus_Dieter | lets say rekonq 0.5 | 17:29 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: depends on what format the program comes in :) | 17:30 |
| Klaus_Dieter | rekonq is a kde4 app - 0.4 is in the repositories afaik but 0.5 not | 17:30 |
| Klaus_Dieter | so I could build an own package | 17:31 |
| Klaus_Dieter | or ... ? | 17:31 |
| martin_ | Klaus_Dieter: you can either compile it from source | 17:31 |
| martin_ | or | 17:31 |
| dan | I think my laptop is about to die. So I am going to buy a new one. Are there troubles with running Kubuntu on a radeon laptop card? | 17:31 |
| martin_ | kubuntu has a development repo, it might be there | 17:31 |
| Klaus_Dieter | martin_: ok | 17:32 |
| Klaus_Dieter | dan: xorg works pretty well with nvidia and ati on linux. I personally use the open source ati driver and I am very happy with it but of course it depends on your chipset | 17:33 |
| martin_ | dan: usually no problems, no | 17:33 |
| martin_ | dan: but i recommend you to (stay calm) keep windows, even if you don't plan to use it | 17:33 |
| dan | Klaus_Dieter: I've never used a non-nvidia card with Linux. But I remember 2 years ago, NVIDIA had some frustrating issues. But now the bargain basement lapotop of the week runs a radeon card. | 17:34 |
| dan | Martin_: I usually leave the win partition up in the event that i want to play a game that is like......not kblackbox:) | 17:34 |
| martin_ | dan: good, but yes, almost all newer radeon cards are supported | 17:35 |
| Klaus_Dieter | dan: with the binary driver it seems like there are always frustrating issues but then again I come from a different world in terms of linux.... This is my first attempt on ubuntu and have benn using FreeBSD before and before that gentoo for quite some time | 17:35 |
| martin_ | dan: if you don't know which laptop you want, i recommend you Acer Aspire AS5738ZG-454G32MNBB | 17:36 |
| dan | Klaus_Dieter: if you come from BSD, there likely isn't anything in *buntu land whihc will frustrait you. | 17:36 |
| martin_ | dan: bought one last week and it works perfectly | 17:36 |
| Klaus_Dieter | dan: well BSD is a really nice system | 17:36 |
| dan | klaus_dieter: ohhh I know. It's very nice. | 17:38 |
| dan | Martin_: are you in the US? | 17:38 |
| martin_ | no comments | 17:38 |
| martin_ | dan: sweden | 17:38 |
| martin_ | dan: but it should work the same in the US | 17:38 |
| dan | Ahhhhhh ok, I was wondering why I couldn't find that lappy in an American store. | 17:38 |
| Klaus_Dieter | but my poor laptop was too damn slow to handle both: zfs and my workload so I needed a switch | 17:39 |
| dan | I was looking at this: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Compaq+-+Presario+Laptop+/+AMD+V-Series+Processor+/+15.6%22+Display+/+2GB+Memory+/+250GB+Hard+Drive+-+Black/9980182.p?id=1218207308692&skuId=9980182 | 17:39 |
| vot | acers suck balls | 17:39 |
| Klaus_Dieter | whoah the startup time is amazing | 17:39 |
| Klaus_Dieter | dan: I also would recommend against acer | 17:39 |
| dan | Klaus_Dieter: why? | 17:39 |
| vot | not that, that laptop is bad specs | 17:40 |
| dan | I'm old school. I just care about how many gb's it has. | 17:40 |
| Klaus_Dieter | dan: their mainboards tend to break after 2 years | 17:40 |
| vot | i.e its specs are ok | 17:40 |
| vot | but i have the same queries about reliability and build quality | 17:40 |
| Klaus_Dieter | yes I know there are many happy acer users out there but I have been fixing laptops for too long to buy acer | 17:41 |
| vot | i'll say this our dells statistically were a lot better | 17:41 |
| dan | That's about the life span I expect. Like I say: a train ride twice a day, comes with me wherever I go. Shares time between my diaper bag and my laptop bag. Occasionally falls off of a ladder..... | 17:41 |
| Klaus_Dieter | I have to say I do like samsung considering price/value ratio | 17:41 |
| Klaus_Dieter | and I am a happy samsung user for 3.5 years now with a q35 | 17:42 |
| Klaus_Dieter | it went to university with me every day, train rides, the usual and it still does its thing | 17:43 |
| === dan is now known as Dan_L | ||
| Klaus_Dieter | if you are a student then the student deal of IBM might also be something for you | 17:44 |
| Klaus_Dieter | including this rebate you pay as much as for a regular laptop but get extremely well built hardware | 17:44 |
| Dan_L | my corporate disount kind of sucks | 17:45 |
| Dan_L | I get 50 bucks off of a deal, 'up to 33%' on lenovo, 10% off of sony, and 10% off of fujitsu | 17:46 |
| vot | my asus has been very good | 17:47 |
| Klaus_Dieter | fujitsu can be a lucky strike | 17:47 |
| vot | but i will say this if you have problems i dont think they have a lot of service centers | 17:47 |
| vot | and you would have to post it | 17:47 |
| Klaus_Dieter | once a client came in with a fujitsu that had its mainboard fastened with 3 screws and a lot of tape | 17:48 |
| vot | and probably long turn around time | 17:48 |
| heinkel_111 | seems I managed the upgrade :) 10.04 looks good, but what is the default irc client? | 17:48 |
| Klaus_Dieter | asus you need to try the keyboad and touchpad. the keys for the touchpad sometimes take some getting used to. | 17:48 |
| Klaus_Dieter | wow reading my own statements I realize I am rather picky about laptops | 17:49 |
| Klaus_Dieter | heinkel_111: use irssi, it is the best | 17:49 |
| vot | i'll say this id barely know about the trackpad | 17:49 |
| heinkel_111 | Klaus_Dieter: i just want to know what is default :) | 17:49 |
| vot | bluetooth mouse all the way | 17:49 |
| Dan_L | Klaus_Dieter: it's ok to be picky:) It's yer gear. | 17:50 |
| Klaus_Dieter | heinkel_111: if you want graphics, than you could use konversation which is likely to be the default | 17:50 |
| Klaus_Dieter | hehe Dan_L. | 17:50 |
| Dan_L | Does Konversation support notifications in the notificationy thing? | 17:51 |
| Klaus_Dieter | Dan_L: considering your discounts I would first look into Lenovo | 17:51 |
| vot | Like i said dells can be ok when their being competitive | 17:51 |
| vot | some times their expensive | 17:51 |
| vot | some times they have a good deal | 17:51 |
| vot | negative is the indian call centers | 17:52 |
| Klaus_Dieter | vot: and some modells are _really_ heavy but rock solid | 17:52 |
| Dan_L | That's the nice thing about working for a company that's so big, god is scared of them. I have discounts everywhere:) | 17:52 |
| James147 | heinkel_111: quassel is the default irc client in 10.04, konversation is a good alternitive when alot of people prefure | 17:52 |
| heinkel_111 | Dan_L: yes konversation will give you notifications | 17:52 |
| martin_ | Konversation terminated! <3 | 17:52 |
| heinkel_111 | thanks James147... do you happen to know the version number of konversation involved? | 17:52 |
| BluesKaj | Dan_L, yeah , look at settings/configure konversation/notifications | 17:53 |
| James147 | heinkel_111: aptitude tells me it knows about 1.3 | 17:53 |
| Klaus_Dieter | lenovo and the old ibm laptops are not the same any more but imho its still good hardware | 17:53 |
| heinkel_111 | I am checking if the installed version I had compiled myself might have been updated in the upgrade or if I have to do that manuallyy | 17:54 |
| heinkel_111 | I am on konversation 1.2.3 - what is your version numbers, people? | 17:55 |
| === dan is now known as testdan | ||
| Dan_L | testdan: test yer notification n00b | 17:55 |
| Dan_L | fails | 17:55 |
| BluesKaj | heinkel_111, yeah 123 is the latest stable afaik | 17:56 |
| heinkel_111 | BluesKaj: wonderful, then I will not need to work on that | 17:57 |
| === james is now known as Guest54483 | ||
| BluesKaj | well heinkel_111 , you can check , but I'm using kde4.4.2 , so maybe the later versions have newer konvis , dunno for sure | 17:58 |
| === karthik is now known as Guest28619 | ||
| heinkel_111 | BluesKaj: but that is my KDE version as well, is there supposed to be somet newer KDE for kubuntu 10.04 release? | 17:59 |
| BluesKaj | just the alpha and beta etc dev verions which are unstable <<<<<<imo | 18:00 |
| James147 | heinkel_111: there should be 4.4.4: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.4.4 | 18:00 |
| BluesKaj | doesn't matter , stable kde is fine for my needs | 18:01 |
| heinkel_111 | 4.4.2 -> 4.4.4 looks like a lot of hassle for little improvement :) | 18:02 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: 4.4.4 should be more stable being a maintenance release | 18:02 |
| James147 | heinkel_111: its not much hassel :S | 18:02 |
| Klaus_Dieter | well I hope they finally fixed akonadi in a way that it is usable | 18:03 |
| BluesKaj | James147, it crashed my laptop , reverted to 4.4.2 with the live cd | 18:03 |
| Klaus_Dieter | and not crashing all over the place | 18:03 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: weird :S | 18:03 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: akonadi seems more stable here on kde 4.5 RC2... although I havent really used it that much :) | 18:04 |
| BluesKaj | James147, it's not a biggie ..I prefer stuff that works on my lappy vs experimentation , since we use when travelling etc , it needs to be stable and ready to go. | 18:04 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: hmm I finally want to use it to sync my pim dtaa from my cell phone | 18:05 |
| Klaus_Dieter | gut | 18:05 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: yeah... although the maintance releases should mostly just be bug fixes... so more stable. Although if it crashes then upgrading isent a good idea :) | 18:06 |
| BluesKaj | I gave up up the moto driver for kubuntu , i just load the phone pics on to the w7 and copy from there | 18:06 |
| BluesKaj | <--not much of a pnone geek anyway ...they're still silly gadgets to me ...I guess if I was still working my attitude would be different ... another tool I suppose. | 18:08 |

| Klaus_Dieter | here I am again with my first real kubuntu question: When I start my system it says in the tray that the networkmanager is disabled. Why? How do I enable it? | 19:02 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: :D edit or delete /var/lib/NetworkManger/NetworkManager.state then restart network-manager | 19:03 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: well I rebooted the system | 19:04 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: I have only seen that happen when I shutdown then suspend my laptop before it has shutdown :S | 19:04 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: yeah to be speciic I tried to suspend and the laptop crashed in the attempt | 19:05 |
| Klaus_Dieter | I removed the file and restartet networking | 19:05 |
| Klaus_Dieter | we'll see what that does | 19:05 |
| Klaus_Dieter | it tells me that there are no leases to use | 19:06 |
| Klaus_Dieter | which is correct for ethernet | 19:06 |
| Klaus_Dieter | however it does not respect that there is wireless | 19:06 |
| Klaus_Dieter | and it does not autoconnect to that one | 19:07 |
| Klaus_Dieter | and it still says that network management is disabled | 19:07 |
| Klaus_Dieter | what do I have to do to make it find my wireless card? In the initial bootup after setup I could see my wlan and connect to it | 19:08 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: need to restart network-manager not networking :) | 19:08 |

| * Klaus_Dieter knows it was just a humorous comment | 19:11 | |
| Klaus_Dieter | well I am sure I will have *much* fun with Networkmanager. We are old friends... | 19:12 |
| Klaus_Dieter | and it never worked well for me. We will see what changed between 2008 and 2010 | 19:12 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: you could always switch out for wicd if you have allot of trouble :) | 19:12 |
| Klaus_Dieter | James147: if all else fails I will toss both and use wpa_supplicant directly like in the past | 19:12 |
| James147 | Klaus_Dieter: you also might want to keep in mind that knetworkmanager is a tempory standin while they fix the network widget | 19:13 |
| BluesKaj | NM was troublesome on the previous kubuntu versions but Lucid seems to have the probs I had fixed | 19:14 |

| BluesKaj | only teenagers ask others how old are you | 20:01 |
| sandermans15 | i know | 20:02 |
| vot | http://www.xubuntu.org/ is probably a better choice | 20:02 |
| sandermans15 | i know kubuntu is slower but its more beatiful and adeptable than anny other distro | 20:04 |
| vot | well whats with the silly questions | 20:04 |

| MIH1406 | Can I use messenger plus features in Koepete? | 20:56 |
| James147 | MIH1406: depends on what features it has :) | 20:57 |
| MIH1406 | It is here: http://www.msgplus.net/ | 20:58 |
| MIH1406 | what is Messenger Plus! Live? | 20:58 |
| MIH1406 | Messenger Plus! Live is an add-on for Windows Live Messenger that adds tons of features and extras to the software. Extend the possibilities of Messenger and make your experience a lot more entertaining! | 20:59 |
| MIH1406 | If I chat with my friends with Messenger Live | 20:59 |
| MIH1406 | I can not understand what are they saying? | 20:59 |
| James147 | MIH1406: you cannot use that with kopete... but kopete isent wlm and has more features then it | 21:00 |
| SandGorgon | how do I see the character map in KDE 4 ? I want to look up some unicode codes for a few characters | 21:00 |
| MIH1406 | yes, but most if not all my friends and relatives are using it. | 21:01 |
| MIH1406 | Is there an addon for Kopete to implement these features? | 21:01 |
| === jt|away is now known as jtheuer | ||
| MIH1406 | I like Kopete and want to suggest these features to it | 21:02 |
| James147 | MIH1406: it depends on what features you are looking for... there is no "messenger plus for kopete" but some of the features are already built into kopete | 21:02 |
| MIH1406 | One minute | 21:03 |
| MIH1406 | This feature: Colors, Formatting and Commands | 21:03 |
| MIH1406 | I am chating with a friend and I got this as his nickname:[b][c=1]3yda2'[/c][/b] | 21:05 |
| James147 | MIH1406: kopete > settings > configure kopete > chat window > colours & fonts | 21:05 |
| MIH1406 | I know, but I want it to understand those syntax of MSGPLUS | 21:06 |
| James147 | MIH1406: it wont do that... | 21:07 |
| MIH1406 | It should be implemented I think?! | 21:08 |

| guest_ | ngsi | 21:48 |
| guest_ | ngsi | 21:49 |
| BluesKaj | James147, yeah, but he's obviously using the gnome desktop in kwin | 21:49 |
