trudellhi james00:00
trudellsomebody knows if have kubuntu for armel processors?00:02
james147trudell: kubuntu only supports amd64 and i686 compatable processors00:02
james147trudell: you might want to look at debian... that has support for just about everything ever :s00:03
trudelli was, but i cant download squeeze for amel! :(00:06
trudell404 not found00:07
trudelljames147: i found only snapshot versions00:08
trudelldebian-testing-armel-kde-CD-1.iso       14-Feb-2011 08:53  648M   <-- soooooo big00:09
trudelljames147: Is netinstall a simplified version with optional internet installation of packages?00:11
trudelljames147: do you know something about it?00:12
james147trudell: a netinstall tends to be a minimal collection of software toget the installer running and then the installer downloads the packages from the internet00:14
trudelljames147: ya! thx james00:15
trudelljames147: Another question: Is business card version a good choice for minimal installation for little tablets?00:16
james147trudell: i do not know what a business card version is00:18
trudelljames147: another question: have some environment to develop and compiling armel architecture on kubuntu with i686 processor?00:20
trudellor its impossible?00:21
james147trudell: it is possible to crosscompile... but is not a trivial thing to do00:21
trudelljames147: why not?00:21
trudelljames147: what tools i will need to do crosscompilation from i686 to armel?00:23

SentynelI'm running KDE4.6 on 10.10, and it won't save my GTK theme settings; it resets to QtCurve on each boot. anybody know how to fix that?01:14
melodie_...hi01:19
melodie_hi01:20
melodie_question??01:20
Sentynelmelodie_: ask your question, if somebody knows the answer they'll reply01:27
melodie_oh...sorry im sort of new to this, thank you...first off, this is a personal thing so its not that important, but how, if there is anyway do i send a sms message from either the internet or my email adress....i heard you could but i really have no idea how, and since I don't have a phone, it sort of sucks.... :/01:30
kalhi01:32
peteteusually you can send SMSs from the phone company webpage01:32
peteteat least you can here01:32
melodie_For that you have to have a account, we stopped paying for it so we don't have that acsess anymore.01:33
Sentynelmelodie_: google "send sms", there are loads of results01:34
SentynelI've no idea how reliable any of them are, though01:34
melodie_Ok, I shall try01:35
melodie_Ok thats not working so... next question. Dose anyone know any programs I can download from my KpackageKit that will help me edit either sound or video/both...01:45
Sentynelmelodie_: audacity is a good audio editor01:46
Sentynelmelodie_: there are a few video editors around; I think kdenlive is quite good01:49
melodie_Sentynel: when it bring up audacity in the KpackageKit, it brings up three things. One that says "A fast, cross -platform audio editor" the next that says "A fast, cross -platform audio editor (debug)" and the one after that says "A fast, cross -platform audio editor (data)"01:53
melodie_which one do i download01:53
melodie_im guessing the first01:53
melodie_right?01:53
Sentynelmelodie_: yup01:53
Sentynelit'll automatically grab any other packages it depends on, so you just select the main one01:54
melodie_just making sure then01:54

admin1can someone recomment firewall and AV12:32
james147!firewall | admin112:35
ubottuadmin1: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.12:35
james147!virus | admin112:36
ubottuadmin1: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus12:36
* james147 notes that a firewall isent needed either if your on a trusted network behind a router12:36

BluesKajnlsthzn, yeah I tried Unity as well , it lasted a few days in my case :) Even gnome lovers are disenchanted with it.14:46
BluesKajI see over at #ubuntu , a lot of ppl are regressing to classic gnome14:47
nlsthznthe reason I was so quick to change back was because I couldn't get it to work... not one of the pre-releases booted up after installation... (the same with openSUSE 11.4 ... I am worried :/)14:47
BluesKajnlsthzn, well, kubuntu 10.10 is very stable and IMO handles application repos much better then suse or the "Hats"14:49
BluesKajnlsthzn, the apt package management system is superior in other words14:50

foormeahi15:30
foormeafor some strange reason, my eth0 is not automatically configured when i plug a cable in, actually to enable dhcp i have to manually do a dhclient eth015:31
BluesKajfoormea, does the ethernet icon say unmanaged ?15:32
foormeaBluesKaj: correct!15:32
BluesKajfoormea, you seem to have some networking skills so this is what several ppl are doing nowadays , maybe you would want to try it as well , there are 2 tutorials one for dhcp and th other for static IP on your LAN15:33
sre-su!pm > Nitin15:34
ubottuNitin, please see my private message15:34
sre-suha15:34
BluesKajfoormea, for dhcp :http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/15:34
foormeabut mh i'm just confused over the fact that "it worked" and "it doesn't anymore" with *i think* no obvious reason...15:34
foormeabut thanks BluesKaj for the link, let me take a look15:35
BluesKajfoormea, for static : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html15:35
foormeaor maybe i'll just use wired and not use the network manager15:36
foormeai'm very very lazy these days :D15:36
BluesKajfoormea, it has to do with you /etc/network/interfaces settings and dhclient , the sttings have to be more specific about the gateway , network and broadcast IPs15:37
BluesKajfoormea, anyway that's been my experiejne15:38
foormeaBluesKaj: AH! thanks a lot, pppoeconf messed up my /etc/network/interfaces15:38

foormeai'm coming back to buntu from some time on gentoo. i was familiar with debian/ubuntu before, but many things seem to have changed in the past 1-1.5 years. many services are managed by upstart now, right? is there an interface like sysv-rc-conf for upstart services?15:40
foormeai've looked but haven't found anything yet, maybe you'd know :)15:40

nitinsuggest me some new col apps for ubuntu16:03
foormeaBluesKaj: got disconnected, sorry. unfortunately restoring my /etc/network/interfaces file as such http://pastebin.com/5dtjfVPe does not help the network manager to automatically configure my eth0... do you have any idea?16:04
foormeait just still says 'unmanaged'16:05
foormeafor eth016:05
foormeai'm currently connected with wlan0 and since wlan0 is not in the interfaces file16:05
foormeashould i just try to remove altogether stuff relevant to eth0 too? would that let the network manager handle it?16:06
foormeai guess i'll try.16:06
BluesKajusing /etc/network/interfaces as your network  manangement requires network manager to be either disabled or removed because it changes the interface settings at boot16:08
foormeaah BluesKaj took me a while haha but anywayc, commenting out the 2 lines relevant to eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces did the trick16:10
BluesKajfoormea, using /etc/network/interfaces as your network  manangement requires network manager to be either disabled or removed because it changes the interface settings at boot16:11
foormeaand :( i'll have to read up about upstart, as silly as it sounds i did not manage to stop/restart the networking services...16:11
BluesKajfoormea, the static setting makes your connections slightly fasterbut the dhcp option is easier for most16:12

foormeaBluesKaj: i did, it wouldn't restart. then "service ... stop" doesn't work, "stop eth0" or "stop wlan0" or "stop eth0=eth0" etc.. did not work. well true, i have not read the man for upstart/networking yet16:14
BluesKajfoormea, it service stop or start , stop or start servce16:15
BluesKajnot stop service16:15
