Muon package manager is a good replacement for synaptic [15:13] I still prefer synaptic :) [15:14] I just use it as a reference mostly . and it's familiar ...new for new's sake doesn't make an app better IME [15:25] i am using Kubuntu 12.10 and when i do git clone i get the following message "WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /run/user/new/keyring-Fd9j2E/pkcs11: No such file or directory [15:25] " [15:25] is there a solution to resolve this ?

So maybe something got broken along the way [17:06] MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL the Kernel [17:06] idk why you have to [17:06] but then re-install the amd drivers [17:06] what? why.. I dont have an NVIDIA card... [17:06] its not just an nvidia issue [17:07] its cannonical being fucking retarded [17:07] my video card is an AMD radeon HD6870 [17:07] I am getting a 7000 so I wont have such issues [17:07] I cant wait for trinity [17:07] oh, lets see [17:07] it sucks I know [17:07] wayland looks like it will be interesting [17:08] maxstyvason: please keep the language clean [17:08] the kernel doesn't get pulled during the driver installation so it doesn't get fully compiled [17:08] sorry IdleOne [17:08] WalterN, as a developer of wayland it is still very early [17:08] you should steer clear of it for a couple years [17:08] hehe [17:09] it still looks interesting [17:09] its being heavily worked on but the fact remains, xorg has 30 years of development, this has 5 [17:09] does it incorporate ray tracing? [17:09] its nowhere near ready or feature complete [17:09] crudely [17:09] thats... a lot cool [17:10] kind of [17:10] its very unstable [17:10] sure [17:10] so what am I looking at here? [17:10] All the buzz is distributions looking to shed xorg [17:10] oh, the closed source drivers... where is that? [17:10] they generate it [17:11] the closed source drivers should be in additional hardware [17:12] clutter support is now complete, efl is complete, qt5 us fully supported [17:12] we really won't have any focus on gtk [17:12] dont see 'additional hardware' :-/ [17:12] hmm [17:12] its supported but our focus is with KDE [17:13] but it segfaults with x applications [17:13] 99.999999% of Linux applications are x applications [17:14] download the amd driver .run [17:14] cd ~Downloads [17:14] oh, its in the software sources area [17:14] chmod 777 "file.run" where filename is the file [17:15] yes [17:15] if its not there you need to install it manually [17:15] chmod 777 "file.run" [17:15] sudo -su [17:15] hmm [17:15] ./ file.run [17:15] maxstyvason, nope, linux is a kernel. X application are the graphical ones [17:15] it says its using the Xorg opensource drivers... [17:15] where "file" replace with amd driver name [17:16] alexfpms, my point is valid [17:16] stop being a dbag [17:16] use closed source drivers but make sure you install linux headers [17:16] maxstyvason, but it is far from 99.99999% [17:17] name 10 linux applications that are widely used that dont require xorg [17:17] sudo apt-get install linux-source [17:17] sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic [17:17] THEN install the drivers [17:17] dont install them until afterwards [17:18] for some reason they don't get pulled [17:18] maxstyvason, every terminal app don't use x at all [17:18] erm... the closed source drivers.. meh [17:18] alexfpms, I am unaware of terminal applications that desktop users will want and need [17:18] I'm going to try a different window manager first [17:18] dude its not KDE lmao [17:18] but whatever waste your time [17:19] if your drivers are fail, no amount of software driven DEs will fix graphics lag [17:19] maxstyvason, under linux most of GUI apps are juste the wrappers for the command line tools [17:20] every graphics intensive application you try to run be it movies, flash videos, etc will be slow [17:20] alexfpms, you still havent named me any [17:20] flash seems to run fine [17:20] all 2D stuff seems to run fine [17:20] yes because your 3D driver sucks [17:20] with trinity cards it doesnt suck [17:20] sure [17:21] but you NEED fglrx [17:21] your card is the last FGLRX card [17:21] everything after the 6000 series is trinity [17:21] sell your card and get a 7k card [17:21] if you NEED it to be FOSS [17:22] s/need/prefer/ [17:22] right [17:22] I am with you [17:22] trinity oss support is superb [17:22] amd couldnt legally release the source code of fglrx because of ties it has with other companies [17:23] dnr and all [17:23] hense the new chipset [17:23] rlly [17:23] why do you think torvalds is pissed at nvidia [17:24] I think everyone is that has to do with video drivers and linux [17:24] amd when releasing their new chip went open source and nvidia had the chance to but didnt [17:24] amd's trinity chip on their 7k cards is smooth as ice with the oss trinity drivers [17:25] check phoronix [17:25] they made some serious benchmarks [17:26] they had trinity on their processors and needed something on their graphics cards that wasnt tied down by licensing [17:26] so they recycled trinity with their 7k cards [17:27] im sitting on an nvidia card and the performance is sweet don't get me wrong [17:27] but my next card will be amd [17:29] http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTEyOTI [17:38] hi guys, my filesystem is readonly... i cant startup... dunno what to do :( [18:19] anyone familiar with how to add a server on quassel? [18:32] Bruce: File > Networks > Configure networks > Add === max___ is now known as maxstyvason [18:38] dude just hooked a second monitor up to my computer and I can have 2 different desktop modes on each monitor [18:38] thats so hot [18:39] every oher os and DE can't do what KDE does [18:43] so it was the unity window manager... its much happier now with Xfce :P [18:44] WalterN: you didnt say you were on Unity [18:44] I assumed you were on KDE [18:44] no bro dont use Unity anything but Unity [18:44] I dont really like KDE that much :-x [18:44] have you seen what it can do with multiple displays? [18:45] you can have seperate desktop modes on each individual display [18:45] not to mention oob support for application stretching [18:46] but because someone told you KDE was bad you can go on assuming forever that it is [18:46] Kubuntu was my first linux install ever [18:46] I just prefer the Xfce feel more :P [18:47] also if you have multiple users, you can login on each display with different user accounts at the same time [18:47] so go on using sub par DEs [18:47] gnome2 was really nice... while it existed.. Xfce is basically like old gnome these days [18:47] gnome 2 sucked [18:47] gnome 2 treated its users like they were retarded [18:48] same with unity and gnome shell [18:48] minimize is too confusing [18:48] want to create a launcher to an app on Unity? forget it [18:49] any and all GTK des are simply sub par in terms of features and usability [18:49] you should really try Kubuntu 12.10 with kde 4.9.2 even if off of a thumb drive [18:50] it sure beats unity thats for sure [18:50] or continue living oblivious, shit you should buy a mac if you like living the walled garden experience where they shun any sort of real innovation [18:50] at least OS X works [18:51] friends dont let friends use gnome [18:52] cmon kde+the cube(i dont care what ya say about it, it is eye candy that is helpful) [18:52] FlyingElvis: its KDE, when KDE 5 comes out with Qt5, and Plasma Active 3, your mind will be completely blown [18:52] whens that gonna be [18:52] soon [18:53] compiz, at least in the past, basically didnt work because of video driver fail [18:53] Plasma Active 3 was just released [18:53] next release cycle? [18:53] Qt5 is done [18:53] maybe its fine now [18:53] Plasma Workspaces Platform 5 will be done by January [18:54] which is the full KDE experience [18:55] one thing I hope they work on next is removing libreoffice from Kubuntu [18:55] Calligra is 100x better [18:58] installing my happy program things [18:58] like inkscape <3 [19:03] calligra? never heard of it...is it in the repos? [19:04] yes [19:04] its KDE's office suite [19:04] krita is more advanced than gimp and everything [19:05] really....and why isnt it default...ok ill check this out then [19:05] because stupid Ubuntu devs didnt care about Kubuntu development and currently the development thing is "go with whats most popular" [19:06] is there a fix for the stupid mesa bugs in sight?
