I have a directory of documents (4GB) that I would like to burn on cd... what would I use to compress it, get 700MB pieces and then burn it on cd? thanks!
[12:43] <angasule> how do I disable/modify automount settings/
[12:44] <angasule> !automount
[12:44] <ubotu> angasule: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:45] <stefano> hey guys
[12:45] <lunitik> !listkeys mount
[12:45] <ubotu> Factoid search of 'mount' by key (6 shown): mountiso ;; mountntfs ;; easymount ;; mountwindows ;; diskmounter ;; mount.
[12:45] <stefano> i wonder why i dont have sound in Flash-Movies after updating Mozilla to <IP_ADDRESS> and kde to 3.5.1 :(
[12:45] <lunitik> !listkeys autofs
[12:45] <stefano> does any1 know about this problem?
[12:45] <ubotu> Factoid search of 'autofs' by key returned no results.
[12:45] <lunitik> !botslap
[12:45] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, lunitik
[12:45] <lunitik> man, it likes that site  :|
[12:46] <lunitik> lol @ its not even an actual site though
[12:50] <shao_lo> can anyone tell me how to keep konqueror from opening a new window when i insert a cd
[12:55] <shao_lo> can anyone tell me how to keep konqueror from opening a new window when i insert a cd

[12:59] <patter> hi, hopefully I can ask a simple question without getting larted?
[01:00] <Marrs> :)
[01:01] <patter> I'd like to get the usplash splash screen working again after install & upgrade (installed kubuntu 5.10), I've got kubuntu booting with framebuffer & usplash is in init
[01:02] <Marrs> I just started using kubuntu today, so I'm not of much help..
[01:04] <murray> well, wine worked lovely for SQLyoug
[01:04] <murray> s/youg/yog/
[01:04] <murray> then I got distracted and tried GoogleEarth ... :(
[01:04] <shao_lo> can anyone tell me how to keep konqueror from opening a new window when i insert a cd
[01:05] <murray> shao_lo: no, but I'd be interested to know the answer as well
[01:05] <shao_lo> :)))0
[01:06] <shao_lo> ive been to kde, ubuntu, and now here...
[01:06] <rug> i smell bacon
[01:06] <rug> mmmm
[01:06] <rug> see ya
[01:07] <patter> think its either file associations in konqueror
[01:07] <patter> or some foo that does automounting
[01:10] <jshadow> try system settings, storage media
[01:11] <jshadow> @ shao_lo
[01:12] <shao_lo> so remove open new  window  from the action list for mmounted cd-rom?
[01:12] <jshadow> under the advanced tab theres enable medium application autostart after mount
[01:12] <jshadow> or that =)
[01:12] <shao_lo> thank you Thank You THANK YOU!!!
[01:13] <bob___> kubuntu hangs at "settings the system clock" - I think this is because the machine is not connected to the net...any fixes?
[01:13] <jshadow> your welcome
[01:13] <ryanakca> screen -r
[01:13] <bob___> (oh, this is using the livecd)
[01:13] <ryanakca> oops
[01:13] <ryanakca> my bad
[01:14] <bob___> I think kubuntu-livecd requires an NTP server.
[01:14] <Marrs> that will time out eventually I think
[01:14] <bob___> well, i waited five minuts
[01:15] <Marrs> hmm, that's long I agree
[01:16] <bob___> imho, it should time out after just a few seconds
[01:16] <Marrs> agreed, but I'm no kubuntu expert either ;)
[01:17] <bob___> ok..well thanks for at least chiming in ;)
[01:17] <Marrs> hehe ;)
[01:17] <shao_lo> does anyone here ever have problems with key repeeeeeats ?
[01:18] <bob___> my deian sarge system has become all messed up and I was hoping to use the kubuntu livecd to fix it.
[01:18] <shao_lo> kde wigs out after a while and i have to restart to make it go back to normal
[01:19] <Marrs> I just installed kubuntu a few hours ago
[01:19] <bob___> sounds like a hardware problem or an irq problem shao_lo
[01:19] <Hostile> has anyone gotten the fglrx drivers to work with X.Org 7.0?
[01:19] <bob___> what do you see in /proc/interrupts?
[01:19] <Marrs> or the initial delay before keys start repeating is too low
[01:21] <shao_lo> /proc/interrupts doesnt appear to be a dirctory
[01:23] <ryanakca> hmmm.... is it overly risky updating to kubuntu dapper?
[01:23] <bob___> shao_lo correct it's just a file. What is in it?
[01:24] <rich0rd> ryanakca: why would you do it?
[01:25] <shao_lo> about a dozen line
[01:25] <ryanakca> rich0rd: for more recent releases of programs... certain programs that I use alot and I dont feel like compiling from source, like gimp
[01:25] <ryanakca> rich0rd: Yes, I know, there will be bugs... that isnt a big concern for me
[01:26] <Hobbsee> ryanakca: what are you thinking of doing?
[01:26] <rich0rd> ryanakca: i did it twice, but there are some issues. i don't know if it is a good idea at all. I think it's ~2 month to the release.
[01:26] <Hobbsee> upgrading to dapper?  download a cd instead
[01:27] <Hobbsee> far safer than dist-upgrading
[01:30] <shao_lo> bob___: http://pastebin.com/561968
[01:30] <ryanakca> hobsee: when you install a dist with a cd, dont you loose all your configurations?
[01:31] <Phazeman> the crystalcursor package is broken :(
[01:31] <Phazeman> in dapper
[01:31] <cedrcv> Hello :)
[01:32] <angasule> how do I disable/modify automount settings?
[01:33] <Hobbsee> Phazeman: broken how?
[01:33] <ryanakca> unless... of course, someone knows how to install GIMP 2.2.10 threw apt...
[01:34] <Hobbsee> ryanakca: backup your /home directory, and copy it over
[01:34] <GoDawgs> hey guys
[01:34] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: it won't install
[01:35] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: wanna see the error /
[01:35] <Hobbsee> Phazeman: pastebin the error?
[01:35] <Phazeman> ?
[01:35] <Hobbsee> yes
[01:35] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: it's a oneliner
[01:35] <Phazeman> sec
[01:35] <Phazeman> update-alternatives: unable to make /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons/default/index.theme.dpkg-tmp a symlink to /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme: No such file or directory
[01:35] <GoDawgs> has anyone experienced installing Kubuntu only to have it shut down the laptop when it reached "Setting the Clock".... in the initial bot
[01:35] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: ^^^
[01:35] <GoDawgs> boot
[01:35] <ryanakca> I wouldnt neet to upgrade to dapper... if there was a way to upgrade GIMP from 2.2.8 to 2.2.10 threw apt
[01:35] <Hobbsee> ryanakca: you'd have to compile it
[01:36] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: did you get it ?
[01:36] <GoDawgs> because i can't get this darned thing to install for the life of me... i had Ubuntu Dapper working fine.... had to blast it because of a Winblows error... and now i'm back to square one
[01:37] <Hobbsee> Phazeman: hmmm...indeed that is a bug
[01:37] <Phazeman> :-)
[01:37] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: it's definately is... there is no such directory /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons/default/ at all
[01:38] <Hobbsee> hmmm...because they changed xorg, i presume
[01:38] <Phazeman> yep.. i think...
[01:38] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: you are the maintainer ?
[01:38] <Hobbsee> Phazeman: nope
[01:38] <Phazeman> Hobbsee: btw.. it's dapper i'm speaking about
[01:38] <Hobbsee> yeah, i thought so
[01:39] <Phazeman> and the regular crystalcursors.tar.bz2 from kde-look.org won't install neither
[01:41] <Psi-Jack> ryanakca: Curious. What does 0.0.2 revision's really give you in gimp? :p
[01:41] <Hobbsee> !+anyone
[01:41] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[01:41] <GoDawgs> I already did.
[01:41] <GoDawgs> Thanks.
[01:44] <Hobbsee> oh, you're the same person from above...sorry about that
[01:44] <GoDawgs> that's ok. :)
[01:44] <Hobbsee> GoDawgs: did you try running the install agian, or checkign the md5sum?
[01:45] <GoDawgs> yeah both... five times
[01:45] <GoDawgs> :(
[01:45] <GoDawgs> I had dapper running just fine... but can't get kubuntu dapper going
[01:45] <GoDawgs> it's just plain odd
[01:45] <GoDawgs> everything seemed to install fine
[01:46] <GoDawgs> it got me to an command line when it was finished (because i have an ATI 200M card and I have to reconfigure the xserver)... did all that and then when it rebooted.... it completely shut off at the stage of "Setting up the clock"...
[01:47] <Hobbsee> hmmm
[01:48] <GoDawgs> oddball huH?
[02:08] <wC> what's the command to change the colors of the TTY terminals and is there a command to change the resolution of the TTYs from the default 640x480 / 800x600 to some other resolution such as 1280x1024?
[02:10] <judgen> it seems that i cant get accelerated x drivers to work
[02:10] <judgen> wonder why
[02:11] <Nomad411> wC: Look at setterm maybe
[02:11] <Nomad411> setterm --h
[02:11] <wC> will try
[02:11] <Psi-Jack>  Is there a kubuntu-announce type mailing-list?
[02:11] <Cyblivious> can someone give me a very good link for setting up bt878 tv tuners for tvtime?
[02:12] <wC> ttys look like shit on LCD monitors
[02:12] <Nomad411> me too!  :)
[02:12] <wC> setterm was the one, thanks a ton Nomad411
[02:12] <Nomad411> np
[02:13] <Cyblivious> can someone give me a very good link for setting up bt878 tv tuners for tvtime?
[02:13] <wC> dah maybe not, i dunno, stupid LCD
[02:15] <Psi-Jack> Great! Now bogofilter is suggesting ALL mailing-lists I sign up for are 100% spam.
[02:16] <judgen> Is there any site for kubuntu themes?
[02:16] <Psi-Jack> judgen: There's kde-look.org, for KDE themes.
[02:17] <Nomad411> wow, Bogo-filter efficiency: 100%  :P
[02:17] <Psi-Jack> Heh
[02:18] <judgen> Psi-Jack, if i have found a theme i like, http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=30799 how do i simplest install it?
[02:19] <Psi-Jack> I don't install themes. :p
[02:20] <Rodni> hey guys, nobody happened to use a TrendNet 435brm router around here eh/
[02:20] <Psi-Jack> But, I'm pretty sure installing a theme is pretty simple.
[02:22] <Rodni> I dont know how I ended up with this thing but it makes me mad trying to configure it.
[02:22] <yello> hi i was wondering if neone could tell me if kubuntu comes with any compilers
[02:22] <Rodni> I cant make the firewall to stop blocking every single damn port. I set rules and it just ignores them.
[02:24] <yello> im sorry i know its probably a stupid question but does it come with ne compilers?
[02:24] <yello> because everytime i use ./configure it sais it cant find any
[02:24] <yello> at $PATH
[02:26] <yello> can anyone help me please?
[02:26] <rich0rd> what does ./configure miss?
[02:27] <yello> ill copy the message for u
[02:27] <yello> configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[02:27] <yello> See `config.log' for more details.
[02:28] <Hobbsee> yello: did you install build-essential?
[02:28] <yello> i dont think so how do i do that
[02:29] <wC> get gcc
[02:29] <wC> apt-get gcc
[02:29] <yello> ok thankyu
[02:29] <wC> it should work after you have it
[02:29] <yello> E: Invalid operation gcc
[02:29] <yello> E: Invalid operation gcc
[02:29] <wC> :-\
[02:30] <wC> you're using kubuntu correct?
[02:30] <yello> yes
[02:30] <Hobbsee> !build essential
[02:30] <ubotu> Hobbsee: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:30] <yello> kubuntu 5.10
[02:30] <Hobbsee> !build-essential
[02:30] <ubotu> I guess build-essential is a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[02:31] <FlakJacket> why does installing winex uninstall wine?
[02:31] <FlakJacket> i mean xwine
[02:31] <yello> ok sorry i am a complete noob but how do i do that
[02:31] <rich0rd> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:31] <yello> thanks
[02:31] <wC> :-P
[02:32] <wC> i'm pissed @ linux because TTY terminals look like crap on LCD
[02:32] <rich0rd> you will propably need more packages to build what you want, ./configure will tell you what is missing
[02:32] <yello> build-essential: Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going to be installed or
[02:32] <yello>                             libc-dev
[02:32] <FlakJacket> anyone know how to get yakuake to keep your schema setting between sessions?
[02:32] <crimsun> yello: you need to have the main repository enabled
[02:32] <yello> crimsun: how would i do that sorry
[02:33] <crimsun> yello: you can edit /etc/apt/sources.list or use Adept
[02:33] <yello> build-essential: Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going to be installed or
[02:33] <yello>                             libc-dev
[02:33] <rich0rd> yello: sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:33] <yello> wen i try to run adept it ses The APT Database will be opened in read-only mode, this means you cannot install/uninstall/upgrade anything. You have to run this program as root to be able to do that.
[02:33] <wC> ew @ vim
[02:34] <rich0rd> uncomment the line with main
[02:34] <wC> use mc or nano, they are the best editors
[02:34] <rich0rd> ... best
[02:34] <FlakJacket> so adept isn't auto kdesu?
[02:34] <rich0rd> it is taste
[02:34] <wC> yup
[02:34] <FlakJacket> yello do sudo apt-get
[02:34] <fm-2> yellowdart: you need to run as root. I.E. sudo adept
[02:34] <yello> i tried that it didnt work
[02:35] <Hobbsee> !kdesu
[02:35] <ubotu> it has been said that kdesu is :Use kdesu to run applications with root priveleges, when you  have to. Do *not* do sudo {GUIAPP}; you can muck up your permissions and the config files.   If it is not working, you may need to run "sudo adept-updater "
[02:35] <FlakJacket> try alt+f2 and kdesu adept
[02:36] <FlakJacket> you'll need to enter your user password
[02:37] <yello> thankyou for ur help ill see if it works now
[02:39] <FlakJacket> i like kpackage better btw
[02:40] <FlakJacket> haha
[02:40] <yello> can one download themes through Adept?
[02:41] <FlakJacket> i don't believe so
[02:41] <hatake_kakashi> nor do I
[02:41] <FlakJacket> kde-look.org
[02:42] <yello> ok
[02:42] <yello> thanks
[02:42] <yello> argh i downloaded gcc but
[02:42] <yello> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[02:42] <yello> See `config.log' for more details.

[02:43] <yello> unarchived it
[02:43] <yello> and tried to follow the instructions
[02:44] <yello> that came with it
[02:44] <FlakJacket> what error did ./configure give you?
[02:44] <yello> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[02:44] <yello> See `config.log' for more details.

[03:10] <Hobbsee_away> !lamp
[03:10] <ubotu> lamp is, like, Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Ubuntu is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[03:23] <unholy> hello
[03:24] <unholy> be anyone here?
[03:24] <FlakJacket> i'm here
[03:24] <FlakJacket> in spirit
[03:25] <unholy> ok
[03:25] <unholy> whould u be able to help me install kubuntu?
[03:25] <hatake_kakashi> unholy: there are guides all over the internet, just go browse for it
[03:25] <unholy> i cant boot it from cd because the machine doesn't allow it in bios
[03:26] <hatake_kakashi> unholy: then reset your bios
[03:26] <unholy> its not an option, the machine is that old (mobo)
[03:26] <hatake_kakashi> unholy: try updating to the latest version from your motherboard website
[03:27] <unholy> dell sorta does wanna know about me getting into the bios.
[03:27] <unholy> doesn't*
[03:27] <unholy> is there a way to boot from floppy then work from cd?
[03:27] <hatake_kakashi> unholy: they don't care, if they do they won't give you bios updates freely off the internet
[03:28] <hatake_kakashi> doubt it
[03:31] <unholy> i found ones for redhat and suse :(
[03:31] <hatake_kakashi> unholy: what do you mean disks?
[03:32] <MacMon> hi
[03:32] <unholy> a floppy disk that mounts the cd
[03:32] <unholy> and runs the cd's boot
[03:32] <ragna> hatake_kakashi: hello =)
[03:33] <MacMon> Dose anyone here know how to run Kubuntu on the newest ppciMac G5s?
[03:33] <hatake_kakashi> unholy: if you can't do bios update then I don't know.. sure you can mod the floppy loader but hardly anyone has gone that far
[03:33] <hatake_kakashi> ragna: hi
[03:33] <Snake__> Whats a good file browser aside from konq?
[03:33] <Snake__> and krusader
[03:33] <ragna> anyone knows how to bind a command??? like "init 6" to "alt + f1"??
[03:34] <hatake_kakashi> ragna: for commands to commands, its alias, but from keyboard to command, that I'm not too sure
[03:35] <hatake_kakashi> ragna: actually the program 'bind' itself maybe useful, but you need to mess with xev first to get the key sequence I think
[03:35] <ragna> hhhmm
[03:35] <Snake__> Anyone?
[03:36] <hatake_kakashi> Snake__: nfi, I pretty much use whatever is available, maybe mc?
[03:36] <hatake_kakashi> MacMon: I assume you need to get Kubuntu with ppc as compiled output
[03:36] <Snake__> hatake_kakashi: mc?
[03:37] <hatake_kakashi> Snake__: midnight commander, a shell based file browser
[03:37] <Snake__> hatake_kakashi: ehhh no, im lookin more for gui
[03:37] <Snake__> And tryin to get away from the split screen deal
[03:37] <hatake_kakashi> Snake__: lol I see
[03:38] <MacMon> i downloaded kubuntu the livecd and intsall cd but both froze at a black/brown screen
[03:40] <hatake_kakashi> MacMon: any last debug messages? check via Ctrl+Alt+F2, Ctrl+Alt+F3, Ctrl+Alt+F4
[03:40] <MacMon> i can't hit any keys beause the keyboard is frozen
[03:41] <hatake_kakashi> MacMon: hmm
[03:41] <treyh0> openoffice is pretty on kubuntu-i386 but ugly on amd64 :(
[03:41] <treyh0> i installed the 32 bit version just cause of that
[03:41] <treyh0> heh.
[03:44] <Snake__> Kamping_Kaiser: help me out man
[03:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> Snake__: sup mate?
[03:45] <Snake__> Kamping_Kaiser: lookin for a file browser other than konq, or krusader.
[03:45] <Snake__> Kamping_Kaiser: I dont want any split screen crap
[03:45] <FlakJacket> what's wrong wih konq then?
[03:45] <judgen> How do i remove borders in the taskbar
[03:45] <Kamping_Kaiser> Snake__: no idea. (just read up), i would have said mc as well :/
[03:45] <MacMon> it dosen't just do this for kubuntu/ubuntu it dose it forevery distro
[03:49] <treyh0> why aren't there more "rolling release" linux distros like archlinux, that can provide a stable base OS and then up to date desktop
[03:51] <Steven_M> hi all
[03:52] <Snake__> FlakJacket: konq is to slow
[03:52] <Snake__> (sorry about the late reply
[03:55] <Snake__> What does gnome use as a file browser
[03:55] <hatake_kakashi> Nautilus I think
[03:55] <mike> Anyone running the amd64 version?
[03:55] <Snake__> Hmm would that run on a KDE rig?
[03:56] <hatake_kakashi> Snake__: don't see why not, I can run KDE apps from Gnome, as long as the deps are set, etc
[03:56] <Snake__> Yea
[03:56] <mike> Any issues?
[03:56] <Snake__> hatake_kakashi: Wtf?? Why is it not in the repos?
[03:57] <hatake_kakashi> Snake__: it should be
[03:57] <hatake_kakashi> mike: iirc if you want 64bit activated, some things are make or break. A fair few recommended using 32bit as it is more stable
[03:57] <hatake_kakashi> !info nautilus
[03:57] <ubotu> nautilus: (file manager and graphical shell for GNOME), section gnome, is optional. Version: 2.12.1-0ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 831 kB, Installed size: 2672 kB
[03:58] <Snake__> odd...
[03:58] <Snake__> Let me update and try again
[03:58] <hatake_kakashi> if not then maybe you need ubuntu-desktop :)
[04:01] <Snake__> hatake_kakashi: ha, screw that!
[04:01] <Snake__> They want me to install nearly 30% of ubuntu-desktop to run it
[04:02] <snoozix> hi there, on the kubuntu faq, i find that installing "kubuntu-desktop" should install kubuntu on a normal ubuntu system, but i still have kde 3.4.3 and not 3.5 :)
[04:02] <mike> well I got amd dapper running ok so far...  I got crapped upon in there IRC channel for a "silly" question
[04:03] <FlakJacket> oh that's stupid there are no bad questions
[04:03] <mike> so I switched to kubuntu...
[04:03] <snoozix> mike: same with me and those gnome developers. they suck.
[04:03] <yello> hi is it possible to use png files as ones icons and if so then how
[04:04] <snoozix> yello: for apps? yes it is.
[04:04] <mike> yeah, sounded like the person crapping on me was like a 15 yr old or something... so I pretty much dropped them like a bad habbit.. and so here I am..
[04:04] <yello> the kubuntu users seem really nice so far, im a noob and yet everyone has helped me so much
[04:04] <yello> snoozix: i meant for the system, like a theme
[04:04] <mike> I got a lot of debian experience... but I thought I would try this first.. so far so good
[04:04] <snoozix> yello: it's the philosophy of ubuntu to help each others.
[04:04] <snoozix> yello: =
[04:04] <snoozix> yello: ?
[04:04] <yello> snoozix: is there any way to make icon themes
[04:05] <Snake__> yello: mike : We are extremely kind, caring people :) Live by the philosophy :)
[04:05] <mike> the only thing I can't get working is my creative labs X-Fi soundcard and thats due to alsa
[04:05] <snoozix> yello: don't know what exactly your'e talking about. if it's what i think it is -> yes it is possible, but i do not exactly know how.
[04:05] <mike> the alsa folks don't have a driver for it yet
[04:05] <snoozix> mike: it should just work
[04:05] <snoozix> oh
[04:06] <mike> well it would if alsa had a driver for it :D
[04:06] <snoozix> i got a very unusual m-audio audiophile 2496 soundcard and it's fully supported.
[04:06] <snoozix> first i thought i will have to wait like 1 year or so until i get sound out of it under linux
[04:06] <mike> yeah, I was going to use a usb solution for now until the alsa folks get the driver going
[04:06] <snoozix> and, tadaaaaaaaaa, ubuntu installed and it just worked.
[04:07] <snoozix> usb solutions are input devices :)
[04:07] <yello> lol im not sure either i just want to change the system icons to a nice set i downloaded from a website (folders, system icos)
[04:07] <snoozix> anything else is beyond it and a workaround :)
[04:07] <snoozix> yello: oh
[04:07] <snoozix> yello: that should be possible indeed.
[04:07] <mike> how much of a difference is there between the ubuntu respotires and say like debian etch?
[04:07] <yello> lol does anyone know then :D
[04:07] <snoozix> yello: did you check out kde-look.org? i guess they have a howto you could use.
[04:08] <yello> thats where i got it from
[04:08] <yello> :D
[04:08] <snoozix> mike: don't really know.
[04:08] <mike> *typo
[04:08] <snoozix> mike: i think the biggest difference is in the update philosophy
[04:08] <snoozix> mike: ubuntu doesn't get updated that often. i consider this an advantage.
[04:09] <snoozix> mike: and if you really wanna know, ubuntu is for the lazy people. like life-artists, alcoholics, potsmokers, out-of-work people, problemchilds and so on.
[04:09] <snoozix> mike: and this is exactly why i like it.
[04:09] <Snake__> Hehe
[04:09] <Snake__> :-D
[04:10] <snoozix> hehe
[04:10] <snoozix> i would be too if there wasn't problem with my lounge health
[04:10] <snoozix> so im alcoholic
[04:10] <mike> Well ok.. I am really none of the above.. I work about 100 hrs a week... :(
[04:10] <snoozix> since 2 years
[04:10] <snoozix> can't smoke anymore
[04:10] <Nomad411> !icewm
[04:10] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Nomad411
[04:10] <snoozix> mike: do whatever you think is good for you.
[04:10] <Nomad411> !fluxbox
[04:10] <ubotu> I heard fluxbox is a lightweight window manager.  Installation instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fluxbox.  More information at http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net
[04:10] <Snake__> mike: it's okay, we have a spot for you, its called the WA (worcoholics anamous)
[04:10] <snoozix> Nomad411: fluxbox is great.
[04:11] <mike> The life of a sysadmin... in the military
[04:11] <snoozix> Nomad411: if you got any problems, ask.
[04:11] <yello> what is the .* of theme files?
[04:11] <Snake__> Nomad411: ill second snoozix
[04:11] <Snake__> yello: .theme
[04:11] <snoozix> Snake__: hm
[04:11] <Nomad411> snoozix: Is there a fluxbox-desktop from apt^
[04:11] <yello> hmmm i downloaded a .theme
[04:11] <Snake__> Nomad411: nope
[04:11] <Snake__> Nomad411: you can get fluxbox tho
[04:11] <yello> but wen i try to load it it doesnt appear
[04:11] <Nomad411> so I just install fluxbox
[04:11] <snoozix> Nomad411: if you don't need twinview, apt-get install fluxbox.
[04:11] <Snake__> Nomad411: sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[04:11] <yello> in the file opener thing
[04:11] <Snake__> yello: what do you mean
[04:12] <Nomad411> twinview == 2 monitors^
[04:12] <snoozix> Nomad411: if you do, i can upload you a customized .deb if you want to.
[04:12] <Nomad411> ?
[04:12] <snoozix> Nomad411: exactly.
[04:12] <Nomad411> no need, but thanks :)
[04:12] <Snake__> Nomad411: then just do what I said
[04:12] <yello> wen i go Install New Theme (in sys settings) i brows to the folder with the .theme inside but its not ther
[04:12] <mike> ok so I got the dapper installed here and so far so good.. doing a apt-get dist-upgrade.. so far so good.. things like flash and stuff should be in the resp? right?
[04:12] <yello> the folder seems empty from that but in konqueror its full of stuff incl. the .theme
[04:13] <Nomad411> ftp.free.fr is down, it doesn't come from there does it?
[04:13] <Snake__> yello: what are you trying to isntall?
[04:13] <snoozix> Nomad411: then the normal fluxbox should just work....
[04:13] <yello> a theme
[04:13] <yello> called Silver Vista
[04:13] <Snake__> Nomad411: no, its from the universe
[04:13] <Nomad411> getting now
[04:13] <snoozix> Nomad411: maybe you like to play around with styles. that's a little bit mad in fluxbox, but i think you will first want to figure out why by yourself.
[04:13] <Snake__> yello: one sec
[04:14] <snoozix> Nomad411: but let me tell you - it's an awesome windowmanager and i really like fluxbox a lot.
[04:14] <Nomad411> I<m hoping for performance.. :)
[04:14] <mike> fluxbox is nice and quite quick
[04:14] <snoozix> you'll get it right in ya face.
[04:14] <Snake__> yello: this? http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=35445&PHPSESSID=725028e89525867d3b6de6d8ecccd392
[04:14] <Nomad411> then looks of course
[04:14] <snoozix> performance
[04:15] <snoozix> there is more performance than in any other WM i guess.
[04:15] <Snake__> Nomad411: you want preformace???  There is a button that says session type
[04:15] <snoozix> Nomad411: i don't use gdm, sorry.
[04:15] <yello> how do install it
[04:15] <Nomad411> k
[04:15] <Nomad411> re-sessioning
[04:15] <Snake__> yello: that is for IceWM
[04:15] <snoozix> Nomad411: i just removed the gdm init script and use ~/.xinitrc instead.
[04:16] <yello> ah ok
[04:16] <yello> lol thanks
[04:16] <Snake__> yello: that will only work if you dump KDE and move to IceWM
[04:16] <yello> no way
[04:16] <yello> lol thanks
[04:16] <yello> i didnt realise
[04:16] <Snake__> :)
[04:16] <Snake__> No problem
[04:16] <snoozix> icewm is nice, too. but at the moment i use kde and i'm happy to use kde.
[04:16] <Snake__> I love my KDE
[04:16] <snoozix> and it really works fine once you got used to it.
[04:16] <yello> does anyone know how to install this http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=28684
[04:16] <snoozix> Snake__: yes :)
[04:17] <Snake__> Hmmm nope yello
[04:17] <yello> kde has been fine other than compiling gcc for the 2 days iv used it
[04:17] <yello> yea noone seems to know how
[04:17] <snoozix> Snake__: it's hard to configure it so it gets usable i think, but once you did that, it's awesome!
[04:17] <Snake__> yello: whats wrong with gcc?
[04:17] <yello> it wont compile anything for me
[04:17] <yello> i keep getting error messages
[04:18] <mike> compling.. ahh yes.. the days of gentoo and the 4 1/2 days to took me to build the box from scratch
[04:18] <Snake__> yello: do you have build essentials?
[04:18] <yello> i couldnt find build essentials
[04:18] <Snake__> !info build-essentials
[04:18] <Snake__> Uhh crap
[04:18] <angasule> mike: you did a stage 1? suicide :P I used a stage 3
[04:18] <Snake__> I cant spell
[04:18] <mike> stage 1 here... all the way
[04:18] <Snake__> yello: this is for you
[04:18] <Snake__> !info build-essential

[04:18] <ubotu> build-essential: (informational list of build-essential packages), section devel, is optional. Version: 11.1 (breezy), Packaged size: 6 kB, Installed size: 48 kB
[04:18] <angasule> doesn't make sense to me, but if you want to suffer, go ahead :P
[04:19] <Snake__> yello: sudo apt-get install build-essential should take care of gcc
[04:19] <Snake__> !gcc
[04:19] <ubotu> well, gcc is the GNU project C and C++ compiler.  From the command-line, type "man gcc" for a complete manual on gcc.  You can install gcc with 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'
[04:19] <yello> ok thanks
[04:19] <mike> and that was with a "fast" machine... a p4 3.0 with Hyper threading..
[04:19] <Snake__> hmm yello I want this icon set

[04:20] <angasule> I have a 286 in my closet :P
[04:20] <yello> if neone could make it a theme
[04:20] <mike> I worked hard for this machine
[04:20] <mike> ;)
[04:20] <Snake__> mike: my big rig (gaming rig) has got a P4 EE 3.6 Ghz w/ 2 gigs of ram :)

[04:23] <Snake__> yello: this is for you
[04:23] <Snake__> !xincludes
[04:23] <ubotu> When a program or configure script asks for "X includes", you should probably install the following packages: xlibs-dev   xlibs-static-dev   x-window-system-dev
[04:23] <GoDawgs> Snake__: yes, fiber
[04:23] <yello> ok thanks
[04:23] <mike> Yeah thats fiber to the premises or what ever...
[04:23] <yello> and how would one do that sorry (sudo apt-get...)?
[04:23] <GoDawgs> mike: exactly
[04:23] <Snake__> yello: yes sir

[04:26] <Snake__> yello: then try to install again
[04:26] <angasule> there is this one coffee machine at uni that's insane, though, it's like the Pee of God or something, very good stuff
[04:26] <GoDawgs> I think the pee of anyone is disgusting

[04:27] <GoDawgs> Ok... that enough of that talk... come one now...
[04:27] <Snake__> yello: did you ever enable universe and multiverse repos?
[04:27] <yello> how would i have done that
[04:27] <angasule> !repositories
[04:27] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[04:27] <mike> I'll pass on the pee stuff.. thanks...
[04:27] <yello> so i should do that first
[04:27] <Snake__> yello: Read up there
[04:27] <GoDawgs> mike i agree totally!
[04:27] <Snake__> yello: yep
[04:28] <angasule> yes, yello, it's very important
[04:28] <yello> ok thanks
[04:28] <Snake__> yello: follow the first link shown, then go to the directions for kubuntu
[04:28] <Snake__> yello: or you can use this one as well
[04:28] <Snake__> !adept
[04:28] <ubotu> from memory, adept is a package manager for Kubuntu. A howto is provided here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdeptHowto
[04:28] <Psi-Jack> Anyone here on the ubuntu-annouce and ubuntu-security-announce mailing lists?
[04:28] <Snake__> wait
[04:28] <angasule> ok, then you don't want to know my theory about where chocolate comes from
[04:28] <Snake__> yello: never mind
[04:28] <GoDawgs> mike tell me where i can make all my apps that are downloaded appear in the menu... do youi know how?
[04:28] <GoDawgs> oops - YOU sorry
[04:28] <yello> wats synaptic package manager
[04:28] <yello> ah ok
[04:28] <yello> lol
[04:28] <Snake__> yello: scroll to the bottom
[04:28] <Snake__> yello: symaptic is for ubuntu
[04:28] <Nomad411> Snake__: yello:  Thanks for the thumbs up for fluxbox, it's very snappy!
[04:29] <GoDawgs> yello it's how you get software
[04:29] <Psi-Jack> yello: Synaptic is Ubuntu's package manager.
[04:29] <yello> adept?
[04:29] <GoDawgs> same thing
[04:29] <GoDawgs> just for kde though
[04:29] <yello> cool
[04:29] <Snake__> yello: yea, down at the veryyy bottom
[04:29] <Psi-Jack> Adept is Kubuntu's package manager.
[04:29] <Psi-Jack> Synaptic uses GTK+, while Adept uses Qt
[04:29] <GoDawgs> i too am VERY new to adept
[04:29] <Psi-Jack> Basically.
[04:29] <yello> ok im on the kubuntu one
[04:29] <Snake__> GoDawgs: I dont like it, Apt for life
[04:30] <mike> Godawgs: I thought it should do it by it self...
[04:30] <GoDawgs> Snake__: You don't like synaptic?
[04:30] <GoDawgs> mike: I dd too
[04:30] <GoDawgs> it doesn't...
[04:30] <Snake__> GoDawgs: no, I dont like adept...well I dont like synaptic either
[04:30] <yello> lol i already know how to use adept
[04:30] <mike> Godawgs: not sure what script.... update menu maybe
[04:30] <GoDawgs> so far i'm not impress by adept
[04:30] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: So.. What do you like, might I ask?
[04:30] <mike> or menu update
[04:30] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: apt ;)
[04:30] <GoDawgs> mike: where do i find that?
[04:30] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: and aplitude
[04:30] <mike> cli
[04:30] <angasule> adept gives too little information in my opinion, but at least it doesn't have a 'k' in its name
[04:30] <mike> brb
[04:30] <yello> ok so i search for those libs using adept?
[04:30] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: Basically, you like CLI.
[04:30] <GoDawgs> i used ubuntu dapper and i didnt' have that option... must be a kde thing
[04:31] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: No, i'm no CLI freak, but I just dont digg the current managers
[04:31] <GoDawgs> angasule: so true!
[04:31] <GoDawgs> can one use synaptic in kde?
[04:31] <yello> do i search for the libs using adpet?
[04:31] <Snake__> honkzilla: yep
[04:31] <Snake__> oops
[04:31] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: That's cool. It's all about preference anyway.
[04:31] <angasule> adept gives *way* too little info, and the search sucks badly
[04:31] <Snake__> GoDawgs: yep
[04:31] <Snake__> ugh.
[04:31] <Snake__> lol
[04:31] <Psi-Jack> yello: By using the filter input box.
[04:32] <yello> yep
[04:32] <yello> pl
[04:32] <yello> wat libs were they agin sorry
[04:32] <yello> the x thing
[04:32] <Snake__> yello: you could just apt-get, its faster than waiting for the that thing to search when you know the name of the package
[04:32] <Snake__> !xincludes
[04:32] <ubotu> When a program or configure script asks for "X includes", you should probably install the following packages: xlibs-dev   xlibs-static-dev   x-window-system-dev
[04:32] <yello> it says they're installed
[04:32] <angasule> but anyway, it'll probably be much better in dapper, maybe there're screenies available, brb
[04:32] <Snake__> yello: impossible.... do sudo apt-get install xlibs-dev
[04:32] <GoDawgs> well that sucks kopete just crapped out
[04:32] <GoDawgs> fantastic... gotta love beta
[04:33] <Snake__> GoDawgs: yes you can run synaptic on kde
[04:33] <GoDawgs> snake ok right on
[04:33] <yello> E: Couldn't find package xlibs-dev
[04:33] <Snake__> yello: sudo apt-get update again
[04:33] <GoDawgs> Snake__: is there a setting i should check to enable all software downloaded to appear in the menu?
[04:34] <yello> ahh
[04:34] <yello> found it
[04:34] <Snake__> GoDawgs: I think everything appears there by default, but I noticed, (And this may be a bug) some times I need to restart X for it to show up
[04:34] <yello> sudo apt-get install xlibs
[04:34] <yello> not xlibs-dev
[04:34] <Snake__> yello: your going to need dev.
[04:34] <yello> is that right?
[04:34] <yello> ok
[04:34] <Snake__> yello: dev is what builds it
[04:34] <GoDawgs> Snake__: forgive me... i've forgotten how to restart X
[04:34] <yello> ahh
[04:34] <yello> hmm
[04:34] <GoDawgs> ctrl-alt-bkspace?
[04:34] <Snake__> yep
[04:35] <yello> in adept i cant find ne devs either
[04:35] <Snake__> yello: all your universe/multiverse is enabled, and you updated?
[04:35] <yello> yep
[04:35] <Snake__> Hmmmmmmm
[04:36] <GoDawgs> oh yeah... restarting X makes everything go away again
[04:36] <yello> i think my uni/multiverse things r enabled
[04:36] <GoDawgs> hehehehe
[04:36] <Snake__> yello: type in apt-cache search xlibs
[04:36] <Snake__> yello: then PM me the results, or pastebin them
[04:36] <GoDawgs> Snake__: nope... i don't see firefox anywhere
[04:36] <GoDawgs> ok i'll try using synaptic
[04:36] <GoDawgs> breb
[04:36] <GoDawgs> brb
[04:36] <yello> keyboard-config - XKB data
[04:36] <yello> xlibs - X Window System client library transitional package
[04:36] <yello> xorg-common - X Window System (X.Org) infrastructure
[04:36] <Snake__> dont spam.....
[04:36] <Steven_M> How  can you run a program as a different user if kde is loged in as a non-admin account? (non-admin meaning an account with no sudo access)  The "run as different user" option in Run Command only seems to want a sudo password, instead of the password for the user whom you're trying to  run the program as.
[04:36] <Snake__> yello: is that all?
[04:36] <yello> sorry
[04:36] <yello> yep
[04:37] <Snake__> yello: one moment
[04:37] <GoDawgs> sorry - adept could not fine mime/time application/octet stream
[04:37] <GoDawgs> what in hell is that?
[04:37] <GoDawgs> no mime types instaled
[04:37] <GoDawgs> installed
[04:38] <GoDawgs> Snake__: any ideas?
[04:38] <Snake__> GoDawgs: huh?
[04:38] <Snake__> lol
[04:38] <Snake__> yello: your sure your universe is enabled...thats all it could really be
[04:38] <Snake__> yello: you hit apply before you hit close right?
[04:38] <GoDawgs> then when i go to see if firefox is installed... it says it's not but then gives me a button for keep package... wtf?
[04:38] <yello> ok ill have a look wat was the website for it again
[04:38] <yello> soz
[04:39] <Snake__> yello: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto
[04:39] <yello> brb phone sorry
[04:40] <Snake__> GoDawgs: odd
[04:40] <GoDawgs> that's my middle name
[04:40] <yello> sorry back

[04:41] <angasule> 130 of whom are asleep :P plus I don't really have a middle name, my parents don't like them
[04:41] <Snake__> GoDawgs: so you have firefox installed, but it doesnt show up on kmenu?
[04:41] <GoDawgs> Snake__: oddly enough it is now
[04:41] <yello> ahh its the repsitories

[04:42] <Snake__> lol
[04:42] <GoDawgs> it gives a lot more info

[04:44] <Snake__> yello: try that apt-get install xlibs-dev
[04:44] <angasule> GoDawgs: you made a mistake, never tell your a female human in a geek channel :P
[04:44] <GoDawgs> Snake__: hehe... yeah, it does... I'm afraid. :)
[04:44] <GoDawgs> angasule: why?
[04:44] <angasule> s/your/you're/
[04:44] <_david> hello... i just installed Kubuntu last night, and was just looking around - including Administrator functions. I had to walk away for a bit, and when I came back my screen was different - a terminal window was open. I'm feuding with my roommate, and now all of the Administrator functions won't go past the password; is there any way I can re-set the Admin password from the terminal window?
[04:44] <Snake__> GoDawgs: I'm a webdesigner myself, fun job :)
[04:44] <Snake__> HAHA angasule
[04:44] <angasule> GoDawgs: because they're geeks! they don't know female humans
[04:44] <GoDawgs> Snake__: I love it!
[04:45] <GoDawgs> angasule: hehehe... I'm a geek too... and I know plenty!

[04:49] <GoDawgs> hehehehe
[04:49] <yello> but still as stupid as neone lol i dont learn
[04:49] <yello> lol
[04:49] <Steven_M> How  can you run a program as a different user if kde is loged in as a non-admin account? (non-admin meaning an account with no sudo access)  The "run as different user" option in Run Command only seems to want a sudo password, instead of the password for the user whom you're trying to  run the program as.
[04:49] <Steven_M> [16:36]  <Snake__> yello: is that all?
[04:49] <GoDawgs> yeah i agre
[04:49] <yello> not yet

[04:51] <GoDawgs> Steven_M: I would ask the folks in #ubuntu... I'll bet they can help you...
[04:51] <yello> thanks
[04:51] <mnoir> Steven_M: try typing a different user into the box and give their pswd...
[04:51] <yello> ok ill try compiling now
[04:52] <angasule> Steven_M: if you "su otherUser" and become that user in a console, can you run things from there? maybe you have to add " -- :0" or something like that
[04:52] <angasule> hmm, the local LUG is semi-dissolving
[04:52] <Snake__> yello: hows it goin
[04:53] <yello> fingers crossed

[04:53] <Snake__> Double click my name :)
[04:53] <yello> i g2g in 10
[04:54] <yello> checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.2) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
[04:54] <yello> For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
[04:54] <Snake__> !qt
[04:54] <ubotu> Qt is the Q-toolkit. Qt is to KDE what GTK is to GNOME. For the Qt includes, install the libqt3-mt-dev package
[04:54] <Snake__> !qtheaders
[04:54] <ubotu> Snake__: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:54] <Snake__> Hold on...
[04:54] <Snake__> nalioth_zZz: you here??
[04:54] <yello> lol
[04:54] <Nomad411> FF1.5 is soo amzingly faster using fluxbox!
[04:54] <angasule> yello: you want to compile a qt app?
[04:55] <yello> i dont know im trying to compile a theme i think
[04:55] <yello> lipstick theme
[04:55] <angasule> you need qt-devel or qt-dev, not sure the name
[04:55] <Snake__> yello: I dont know what you need for the headers :(
[04:55] <Snake__> nalioth_zZz: does...
[04:55] <angasule> that's the only thing I miss about gentoo, it installs all headers
[04:55] <angasule> when something asks for the header of X program, search for X-dev or X-devel in the repos
[04:56] <yello> lol ok thanks
[04:56] <Snake__> angasule: we need it for qt
[04:56] <angasule> you're welcome
[04:56] <yello> already installed
[04:56] <Snake__> yello: thats for X, not qt
[04:56] <yello> x-dev already installed
[04:57] <Snake__> yello: can you come back tomorrow?
[04:57] <yello> yea
[04:57] <yello> wat time?
[04:57] <yello> i have school so itll have to be arvo
[04:57] <Snake__> yello: im here all day ;)
[04:57] <angasule> yellowdart: I was using 'x' as a 'magic card', you must install qt-dev or qt-devel
[04:57] <yello> lol ok
[04:57] <yello> ill come on around 6:00 or 7:00
[04:57] <Snake__> yello: what time zone
[04:57] <yello> hmm

[04:58] <Snake__> If im not here, theres plenty of others :)
[04:58] <yello> thanks
[04:58] <yello> :D
[04:58] <angasule> actually, it's a bit more complicated, searching for libqt will give a list of all qt-related packages
[04:58] <yello> how do i search i g2g in a sec
[04:58] <Snake__> yello: type it in adept
[04:58] <angasule> in the Adept program there's a search box
[04:58] <yello> ill just add a sticky for later
[04:59] <angasule> libqt3-headers is the package you have to install, I think
[04:59] <yello> woah theres a whole heap
[04:59] <yello> ok thanks
[04:59] <Snake__> angasule: I think your right

[05:02] <GoDawgs> Snake__: another satisfied customer huh? :)
[05:02] <Snake__> GoDawgs: of course :)
[05:02] <GoDawgs> LOL
[05:03] <Snake__> GoDawgs: were you the one saying you came from another distro?
[05:03] <GoDawgs> um... kinda... i was on Ubuntu Dapper...
[05:03] <GoDawgs> not really another distro... just another version
[05:03] <GoDawgs> i've used suse and mepis before though
[05:03] <Snake__> Ah, someone said they came from gentoo I think..
[05:04] <GoDawgs> not I
[05:04] <angasule> I was a gentooite
[05:04] <angasule> but I think someone said the same before me
[05:04] <GoDawgs> angasule: what made you switch?
[05:04] <angasule> gentoo
[05:04] <Snake__> heh
[05:04] <GoDawgs> ahh... didn't like it anymore?
[05:05] <angasule> no, actually, I messed up gentoo (my fault, as usual), and there was a lot of talk about k/ubuntu at the time in the LUG
[05:05] <Snake__> k/ubuntu is taking overr!! rawr!!
[05:05] <Snake__> :)
[05:05] <GoDawgs> oh right on
[05:05] <angasule> I didn't feel like reinstalling gentoo, and there wasn't any other distro appealing to me
[05:05] <Snake__> Suse is VERY good.
[05:05] <Snake__> I love suse almost as much as kubuntyu
[05:05] <angasule> I had started with suse, but it had become too windows-like
[05:06] <GoDawgs> how does one pronounce Kubuntu ... is it Koo-bun-too or Kah-bun-too
[05:06] <GoDawgs> yeah I love SuSE also
[05:06] <Snake__> Koo - bun - too :)
[05:06] <angasule> I think it's kooboontoo?
[05:06] <GoDawgs> Snake__: thanks :)
[05:06] <GoDawgs> really?
[05:06] <angasule> anyway, english vowels are a joke
[05:06] <GoDawgs> Boon?
[05:06] <GoDawgs> hehehehe
[05:06] <Snake__> I think its bun..
[05:06] <GoDawgs> Good... I like buns. :)O
[05:06] <GoDawgs> hehehe
[05:07] <Snake__> Kubuntu is pronounced "koo-boon-too".
[05:07] <GoDawgs> oh ya'll have a sense of humor... come on....
[05:07] <angasule> bantu languages have nice sounds, I think kubuntu comes from a bantu language, but I'm not sure
[05:07] <Snake__> grr
[05:07] <GoDawgs> right on
[05:07] <Snake__> I like bun more :(
[05:07] <GoDawgs> I do too.  I think I'll say it Koo-bun-too
[05:07] <GoDawgs> :0
[05:07] <angasule> GoDawgs: I don't like buns, well, not the ones used for sandwiches in any case :P
[05:07] <GoDawgs> just for the hell of it
[05:07] <GoDawgs> angasule: I like those... too! :)
[05:07] <Snake__> s/claling/calling

[05:09] <GoDawgs> what's that snake?
[05:09] <GoDawgs> hatake_kakashi: exactly
[05:09] <GoDawgs> thanks
[05:09] <Snake__> GoDawgs: one moment, this is the most convient thing youll ever use
[05:09] <GoDawgs> ok i'll wait
[05:09] <hatake_kakashi> GoDawgs: np
[05:10] <Snake__> GoDawgs: this is great when you dont have repos, and dont want to complie
[05:10] <Snake__> http://klik.atekon.de/
[05:10] <GoDawgs> oh okay... let me check it out
[05:11] <Snake__> GoDawgs: its one click install, on any program they have on their site
[05:11] <angasule> Snake__: how reliable is it?
[05:11] <Snake__> GoDawgs: then it only uses one file, delete that file BAM. Program gone
[05:11] <Snake__> angasule: very reliable
[05:11] <GoDawgs> Snake__: but i have to instal klik first right?
[05:11] <GoDawgs> that's extremely cool!
[05:11] <angasule> Snake__: sounds like the mac .apps
[05:11] <Snake__> GoDawgs: wget klik.atekon.de/client/install -O -|sh that installs the program
[05:11] <GoDawgs> i was using openSuSE before and never knew i had it
[05:11] <GoDawgs> ok one sec
[05:12] <GoDawgs> ok it looks like it's installed... let me see how it works ... brb
[05:13] <Steven_M> is there an xhost expert in here?
[05:13] <Snake__> Not me :(
[05:13] <GoDawgs> Snake__: wget klik.atekon.de/client/install -O -|sh
[05:13] <GoDawgs> oops
[05:13] <GoDawgs> Snake__: Please install ar in order to use klik.
[05:13] <GoDawgs> what's that mean?
[05:13] <Snake__> GoDawgs: sudo apt-get install rpm
[05:13] <angasule> GoDawgs: you must install 'ar'
[05:14] <GoDawgs> rpm?
[05:14] <Psi-Jack> Yeak.
[05:14] <Snake__> I think
[05:14] <angasule> GoDawgs: it's odd that you don't have ar, actually, I have it
[05:14] <GoDawgs> i thought we used .deb packaghes
[05:14] <GoDawgs> pkgs
[05:14] <Snake__> NO
[05:14] <Snake__> WAUT
[05:14] <Snake__> WAIT
[05:14] <Snake__> GoDawgs: sudo apt-get install binutils
[05:14] <GoDawgs> ok
[05:14] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: I was about to say. Klik depends on rpm?
[05:14] <Snake__> that will fix it
[05:14] <Snake__> :)
[05:14] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: sometimes
[05:14] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: some of it is RPM, but you only do that when you get the "Please install rpm2cpio in order to use klik" error
[05:15] <Psi-Jack> Heh. hmm.
[05:15] <Psi-Jack> That's no good. No good at all.
[05:15] <GoDawgs> it's weird i always have to insert the CD now... the Dapper CD
[05:15] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: why?
[05:16] <GoDawgs> Snake__: you mean this "sudo apt-get install binutils"
[05:16] <GoDawgs> damn it
[05:16] <GoDawgs> Snake__: Please install rpm2cpio in order to use klik.
[05:16] <angasule> http://dot.kde.org/1126867980/  <-- klik article or something
[05:16] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: They take care of all dependencys before you download the file, then it all gets rolled up into one neat little file that goes on your desktop :)
[05:16] <GoDawgs> so in other words I can't use that?
[05:16] <Snake__> hatake_kakashi: does it say that now?
[05:16] <Snake__> ugh
[05:16] <Snake__> GoDawgs: does it say that now?
[05:16] <GoDawgs> Snake__: yeppers
[05:16] <Snake__> GoDawgs: sudo apt-get install rpm
[05:16] <GoDawgs> so it's an rpm pkg that i can't use ... right?
[05:16] <GoDawgs> do I really... REALLY want to install RPM?
[05:17] <hatake_kakashi> that makes you read rpms
[05:17] <GoDawgs> so it won't harm my system right?
[05:17] <Snake__> GoDawgs: its not an RPM
[05:17] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: I Yeah.. I know what klik is. Never used it myself. Don't actually see the usefulness in it.
[05:17] <Snake__> GoDawgs: its a special file called .cmg
[05:17] <hatake_kakashi> .cmg?
[05:17] <GoDawgs> ok... i'll give it a shot
[05:17] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: its good if you dont want to complie and its not in the repos
[05:17] <Snake__> hatake_kakashi: yes, its a single file that contains all the files needed to run the program
[05:17] <hatake_kakashi> Snake__: hmm
[05:18] <Snake__> hatake_kakashi: remove the one file, the program is gone. That allows you to put it on USB sticks and run from ther eetc
[05:18] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: If it's not in the repos, then I don't mind compiling, prefixing to /opt somewhere, out of the way and thus, easily de-installable.
[05:18] <GoDawgs> this is CRAZY
[05:18] <Snake__> GoDawgs: whats up now
[05:18] <GoDawgs> please install this... please install that!
[05:18] <GoDawgs> geez
[05:18] <Snake__> GoDawgs: what are you missing now??
[05:18] <GoDawgs> Please install libstdc++5.so in order to use klik. The installation will continue, but the resulting cmg files will be larger than neccessary.
[05:18] <GoDawgs> LOL
[05:18] <Snake__> Wow.......
[05:18] <GoDawgs> this is comedic
[05:18] <Snake__> lol
[05:18] <Snake__> I didnt get all that :)
[05:19] <Snake__> Probly because I have 15000/18000 repos tho
[05:19] <Snake__> hehehe
[05:19] <GoDawgs> apt-get libstdc++5?
[05:19] <GoDawgs> i don't have but maybe 10
[05:19] <GoDawgs> :)
[05:19] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: Or better, I make my own deb package. :)
[05:19] <GoDawgs> good lord
[05:19] <Snake__> GoDawgs: I dont think so....
[05:19] <GoDawgs> i don't know how :(
[05:19] <Snake__> !info libstdc++5
[05:19] <ubotu> libstdc++5: (The GNU Standard C++ Library v3), section base, is optional. Version: 1:3.3.6-8ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 288 kB, Installed size: 848 kB
[05:19] <Snake__> Oh
[05:19] <Snake__> GoDawgs: go for it
[05:19] <Snake__> hehe
[05:20] <GoDawgs> ok... here goes nothing
[05:20] <Snake__> GoDawgs: trust me, its worth it ;)
[05:20] <GoDawgs> right now i'm getting invalid operation from shell
[05:21] <GoDawgs> hold on a sec
[05:21] <Snake__> GoDawgs: apt-get INSTALL libstdc++5
[05:21] <Snake__> ;)
[05:21] <angasule> hey, I need libcurl.so.2, but kubuntu has libcurl.so.3, I can't see how to install an older version (don't even know if there is one in the repos, actually)
[05:21] <GoDawgs> ohohohoh Install is the key
[05:21] <Snake__> :)
[05:21] <hatake_kakashi> angasule: get the source and recompile that
[05:21] <Snake__> !info libcurl.so.2
[05:22] <angasule> I was looking for a less ugly way, hatake_kakashi, since that'd require installing a bunch of other stuff
[05:22] <Psi-Jack> angasule: Why do you need an older version?
[05:23] <GoDawgs> kelley@kubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install libcurl.so.2 - Reading package lists... Done - Building dependency tree... Done - E: Couldn't find package libcurl.so.2
[05:23] <angasule> Psi-Jack: closed source game
[05:23] <GoDawgs> i give up.
[05:23] <Snake__> GoDawgs: I told you not to do that..
[05:23] <Snake__> roflmao
[05:23] <GoDawgs> not to do what?
[05:23] <Snake__> PM
[05:23] <Psi-Jack> angasule: symlink libcurl.so.3 to libcurl.so.2
[05:23] <tinin> !dapper
[05:23] <ubotu> from memory, dapper is the pre-release name for the next version of Ubuntu, the release will be called 6.04. It is due 20th April. It is software in development and as such may break.
[05:23] <angasule> Psi-Jack: that's not nice :P
[05:24] <Psi-Jack> angasule: If it works, it works, right?
[05:24] <GoDawgs> oh this is so fun...
[05:24] <GoDawgs> hehehehe
[05:26] <GoDawgs> http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[05:26] <GoDawgs> that's for everyone's benefit
[05:26] <GoDawgs> it auto builds a source.list for ya'
[05:26] <GoDawgs> check it out
[05:27] <Psi-Jack> God...
[05:27] <Psi-Jack> Nevermind, then.
[05:27] <keqiuguang> y do mt open office keep hanging
[05:27] <keqiuguang> soeone help me
[05:27] <Psi-Jack> I was about to warn GoDawgs that that site, however, good, can be dangerous.
[05:27] <angasule> oh, well, it didn't complain too much until it asked for a certain libstd++
[05:27] <Psi-Jack> keqiuguang: In order to help yuou, you need to be more specific.
[05:28] <Psi-Jack> keqiuguang: Use of the English language, also helps. :)
[05:28] <keqiuguang> ok
[05:28] <keqiuguang> my office document
[05:29] <GoDawgs> sorry ya'll didn't mean to cut out on ya'
[05:29] <Nomad411> Using fluxbox, is kde still needed?
[05:29] <keqiuguang> it hangs everytime i use it
[05:29] <Psi-Jack> GoDawgs that that site, however, good, can be dangerous, the source-o-matic one.
[05:29] <Snake__> Nomad411: no
[05:29] <keqiuguang> help
[05:29] <GoDawgs> Psi-Jack: yes I know... that's why it stipulates "use at your own risk"
[05:29] <GoDawgs> :)
[05:29] <Nomad411> keqiuguang: just say what your problem is
[05:29] <Psi-Jack> keqiuguang: "it hangs," is not any more specific than "keep hanging". Be more specific.
[05:30] <GoDawgs> Psi-Jack: but thanks... seriously
[05:30] <keqiuguang> it hang
[05:30] <angasule> keqiuguang: open office hangs when you try to use it?
[05:30] <Psi-Jack> keqiuguang: Sorry. Can't help you.
[05:30] <Nomad411> Snake__: If I did remove the KDE stuff, what package woudl it be?  Last time I did, it removed almost all from the machine :)
[05:31] <keqiuguang> k
[05:31] <keqiuguang> nevermind
[05:31] <Snake__> Nomad411: hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm maybe kde? im not sure
[05:31] <Nomad411> lol
[05:31] <Nomad411> keqiuguang: If you start it from the oowriter from the command line, you may see error messages
[05:32] <Psi-Jack> Nomad411: If you uninstall libqt3-mt from the system, pretty much all of KDE libraries and software will go with it.
[05:33] <Psi-Jack> Among with anything else dependant on Qt, of course.
[05:33] <Nomad411> SO that means, koffice, kopete, etc.. all go?
[05:33] <Psi-Jack> Otherwise, you could just remove kdelibs.
[05:33] <Psi-Jack> Nomad411: Well, yes.
[05:33] <angasule> Psi-Jack: does adept uninstall all that depends on that package? or just breaks them?
[05:33] <Nomad411> I guess it,s not taking that much space anyway..
[05:33] <Psi-Jack> angasule: Adept follows dependancies.
[05:34] <angasule> very very nice
[05:34] <Psi-Jack> It's dpkg that will quickly break your system if you don't use it properly.
[05:34] <Psi-Jack> angasule: Ironically, That's not hard. :p
[05:35] <GoDawgs> Don't do that again!
[05:35] <GoDawgs> Positive thoughts... postive... :)
[05:35] <GoDawgs> positive even
[05:35] <Psi-Jack> It's actually MUCH easier to break a Gentoo system than it is any binrary-oriented distribution.
[05:35] <angasule> yes, but not anybody can break it as well as I did!
[05:35] <Psi-Jack> angasule: Yes, yes, they can. ;)
[05:36] <angasule> I didn't just make it non-functional, anyone can do that, I mutated it into something so hideous even microsoft wouldn't sell it
[05:36] <angasule> and SCO wouldn't sue it!
[05:37] <Psi-Jack> heh
[05:37] <Psi-Jack> angasule: Spill it. What did you do?
[05:37] <Psi-Jack> I'm curious. :)
[05:37] <angasule> I don't know, actually
[05:37] <angasule> it was a long process of small screw ups
[05:37] <Hysty> howdy all
[05:38] <angasule> I installed and uninstalled programs constantly, changed settings all over the place, recompiled some stuff with different flags, etc
[05:38] <angasule> hi Hysty
[05:38] <Psi-Jack> angasule: Okay. So basically what you're saying is. You don't know.
[05:38] <angasule> eventually it was like windows
[05:38] <Hysty> heh
[05:39] <angasule> well, sometimes I was trying to get something to compile but it'd be late so I'd sleep, and when I woke up I wouldn't remember what I had done the day before
[05:39] <Psi-Jack> The biggest problem with Gentoo, is their resolver in portage is like molasses. It's very immature and extremely basic.
[05:39] <Psi-Jack> I have explained this repeatedly to the Gentoo guys, and is why I now, refuse to use Gentoo.
[05:40] <Psi-Jack> I even made strategical suggestions on which ways to make improvements. All of them were shot down, quite literally within milliseconds of me mentioning them.
[05:41] <Hysty> their loss
[05:42] <Hysty> anyone here used Linux MultiMedia Studio?
[05:43] <angasule_> don't miss me any more!
[05:43] <Hysty> phew!
[05:47] <angasule_> hmm, I ate too much, it's almost 2am and I'm still not hungry enough for a midnight snack
[05:48] <Snake__> angasule_: thats a problem!
[05:49] <angasule_> yes, I can't go to bed without my midnight snack
[05:50] <Hysty> yay compiled my first package
[05:51] <rich0rd> it is not a belly until you can put a "Mass" of beer on it.
[05:51] <Snake__> Hey guys is dapper flight 4 out?
[05:51] <Hysty> it wasnt a few days ago
[05:52] <angasule_> hey, I have a belly for the first time in my life, let me enjoy it! :P besides, i don't drink alcohol, caffeine is my only drug
[05:52] <rich0rd> angasule: but with beer you get a belly in a shorter time
[05:53] <Hysty> trying to get rid of my belly
[05:53] <Hysty> i have 20 odd kilos to drop
[05:53] <Snake__> lol
[05:54] <rich0rd> billiards
[05:54] <Hysty> bench press that monitor!
[05:54] <rich0rd> drinking, smoking, sitting
[05:54] <Snake__> Hysty: I got a bench right next to me
[05:55] <Hysty> Snake__, well what are you waiting for, grab that monitor and move!
[05:55] <Hysty> ;)
[05:55] <angasule_> hmm, that's a good idea, my CRT is kinda heavy
[05:57] <angasule_> I was underweight until a short time ago
[05:59] <Snake__> Im pretty built myself
[05:59] <Snake__> ;)
[06:00] <angasule> I get bored too easily, I have a gym two blocks from home but I gave up after a month
[06:00] <Snake__> angasule: gotta change it up
[06:00] <angasule> I do pushups at home, but that's all
[06:00] <angasule> and I walk a lot
[06:01] <angasule> although summer is horrible for doing excercise
[06:01] <rich0rd> summer - where?
[06:01] <rich0rd> it's winter here

[06:12] <ubotu> rich0rd: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:12] <rich0rd> harr
[06:12] <angasule> I was talking about the cat :P
[06:12] <Snake__> Hehe
[06:13] <angasule> actually, that looks like one of those expensive cats that are not retarded like the usual pet store cats, hmm, don't remember the name
[06:13] <Snake__> angasule: her cat gave birth to it
[06:13] <Snake__> actually 4 of em :)
[06:14] <Snake__> You can see 2 on the recliener
[06:15] <angasule> neat, I'm a cat person, in so far that I hate dogs and I respect cats (I don't like the smell of living entities, though)
[06:30] <Snake__> !adept
[06:30] <ubotu> [adept]  a package manager for Kubuntu. A howto is provided here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdeptHowto
[06:33] <Smrts> How can I add things in /etc/init.d/ to start on boot?
[06:48] <Nomad411> !qemu
[06:48] <ubotu> I guess qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo or http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=200357&postcount=1
[07:08] <alcros> this is a longshot but, has anyone installed kubuntu on an HP Pavilion dv5000 successfully??
[07:11] <alcros> My new kubuntu installation hangs on "checking battery state", I've found many pointers but they all refer to nvidia cards, and I have an ATI
[07:12] <Psi-Jack> Interesting.
[07:13] <Psi-Jack> Someone goofed up on the KDE 3.5.1 porting for Breezy.
[07:13] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: why whats up
[07:13] <Psi-Jack> It's claiming browser identification of Kubuntu 6.04 Dapper. :}
[07:13] <Psi-Jack> For konq
[07:13] <Snake__> Hmm
[07:14] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: where
[07:14] <Psi-Jack> I've been using konq to hit my own site, trying to get this bloudy phpmyadmin package to actually use the config.inc.php like it's supposed to.
[07:14] <Psi-Jack> So, it's in my apachelogs./ :)
[07:14] <Snake__> Ahhhh neat :)
[07:15] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: I think its like that because 3.5.1 is goin into dapper
[07:15] <Psi-Jack> And, I, run Breezy. ;)
[07:15] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: It already is in Dapper. But, still.
[07:15] <Psi-Jack> Whoever backported it for breezy missed that one detail.
[07:15] <Snake__> Yea
[07:15] <Snake__> Well cant get everything can they?
[07:16] <Psi-Jack> heh
[07:16] <Psi-Jack> I do have some requests they should do for kubuntu-defaults, though, for konq. Enabling the platform and language in konq settings. ;}
[07:17] <inter> my dell 700m won't reboot after writing a suspend2 image to the hdd...manual reboot is required by the image is restored fine...anyone have a suggestion?
[07:19] <GullyFoyle> what pkg do i install to build x apps fom source? x-devel or something?
[07:19] <Snake__> GullyFoyle: whats it asking for
[07:19] <Snake__> x includes or what?
[07:20] <Hostile> does anyone have fglrx drivers working with X.Org 7.0 here?
[07:20] <GullyFoyle> X-includes
[07:20] <Snake__> !xincludes
[07:20] <ubotu> When a program or configure script asks for "X includes", you should probably install the following packages: xlibs-dev   xlibs-static-dev   x-window-system-dev
[07:20] <Psi-Jack> Hostile: Running Dapper, I presume?
[07:20] <Hostile> Psi-Jack: yes
[07:20] <Hostile> I wanted to try out Xgl, but the fglrx on Xorg 7 have hit me like brick wall
[07:20] <Psi-Jack> Dapper, I won't run, till it's stable. ;}
[07:20] <Hostile> like a*
[07:21] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: do you know what the suggest packages are for qt headers and librarys?
[07:21] <Snake__> suggested*
[07:21] <Psi-Jack> Everyone's out trying to get this Xgl stuff. It's not all that great
[07:21] <Hostile> Psi-Jack: yeah if after a few days on the ubuntu forums no one gets a solution, I might reinstall and stay at breezy
[07:21] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: libqt3-mt and libqt3-mt-dev?
[07:21] <Hostile> Psi-Jack: I just wanted to give it a try, I live to experiment
[07:21] <Hostile> I have too much time on my hands
[07:22] <Psi-Jack> I live to have a usable system.
[07:22] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: I want to make a factoid in ubotu because that question has been brought up 2 times since ive been in here
[07:22] <Hostile> Psi-Jack: hehe
[07:22] <Hostile> My system is perfectly usable right now, Just no 3d accel
[07:22] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: Yeah, it's libqt3-mt and libqt3-mt-dev
[07:22] <Hostile> not a huge deal for me
[07:23] <Snake__> ubotu: qtheaders is needed to complie some programs. You should get the following packages: libqt3-mt-dev libqt3-mt
[07:23] <ubotu> Snake__: okay
[07:23] <Snake__> !qtheaders
[07:23] <ubotu> from memory, qtheaders is needed to complie some programs. You should get the following packages: libqt3-mt-dev libqt3-mt
[07:23] <Snake__> Thank god
[07:23] <Snake__> lol
[07:23] <Psi-Jack> !Qt
[07:23] <ubotu> Qt is the Q-toolkit. Qt is to KDE what GTK is to GNOME. For the Qt includes, install the libqt3-mt-dev package
[07:23] <Psi-Jack> Hmm..
[07:23] <Psi-Jack> !Psi-Jack
[07:23] <ubotu> Psi-Jack: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:23] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: DID YOU JUST CHANGE THAT!
[07:23] <Snake__> That was not there
[07:23] <Psi-Jack> Snake__: No.
[07:24] <Psi-Jack> It's been there. :p
[07:24] <Snake__> Dude I totally called that up earlier and it wasn't there!
[07:24] <Snake__> ubotu: forget qtheaders
[07:24] <ubotu> i forgot qtheaders, Snake__
[07:25] <Psi-Jack> !Psi-Jack
[07:25] <ubotu> from memory, psi-jack is A Kubuntunite, heavily into KDE and all against the Gnome generation.
[07:25] <Psi-Jack> There we go.
[07:26] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: will !qt fix this error
[07:26] <Snake__> checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.2) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
[07:26] <Psi-Jack> Should yes.
[07:26] <Snake__> Alright
[07:26] <GullyFoyle> !QT
[07:26] <ubotu> Qt is the Q-toolkit. Qt is to KDE what GTK is to GNOME. For the Qt includes, install the libqt3-mt-dev package
[07:27] <Psi-Jack> Dangit.
[07:27] <Psi-Jack> Why the fsck isn't this phpmyadmin reading the /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php?
[07:28] <Snake__> Psi-Jack: well, knowing php, and the way it acts, your missing a bracket :P
[07:28] <Snake__> hehe
[07:28] <GullyFoyle> !KDE
[07:28] <ubotu> methinks kde is A powerful, free desktop environment for UNIX. IRC: #kubuntu #kde ; install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ; ISOs: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/breezy/
[07:29] <Psi-Jack> There;s no apache errors. heh
[07:29] <unix_infidel> ummm, there's no .xinitrc how do i set the wm?
[07:30] <Snake__> unix_infidel: what do you mean?
[07:30] <Snake__> unix_infidel: Are you trying to change to gnome/fluxbox/insert manager here?
[07:30] <unix_infidel> lol, you kids and your gui.
[07:30] <unix_infidel> no i'm trying to find xinitrc to so i can startx from command line
[07:30] <Snake__> Ah :)
[07:30] <unix_infidel> but i think i found it :P
[07:31] <Snake__> unix_infidel: how long you been on nix?
[07:31] <unix_infidel> Snake__: why?
[07:32] <Snake__> unix_infidel: just curious, the way you say "You kids and your gui" hehe
[07:33] <unix_infidel> Snake__: b/c every time i ask a pertinent question that doesnt really require a gui, i get an answer that requires a gui.
[07:33] <unix_infidel> i'm just not a big fna, and i understand that's sorta the angle this distro takes.
[07:33] <unix_infidel> but if its gonna be meant for the human beings it has to be made for all kinds of users.
[07:33] <Hostile> unix_infidel: Oh my god, you just stated how I feel ALOT
[07:34] <unix_infidel> ok.
[07:34] <unix_infidel> ....
[07:34] <Hostile> haha
[07:34] <Hostile> I know where you're coming from unix_infidel
[07:34] <Snake__> unix_infidel: not many of you cli rippers left, now in days we like teh pretty pictures :)
[07:34] <Hostile> lol
[07:35] <Hostile> someone actually said 'cli' don't see that term used much anymore
[07:36] <Snake__> Hostile: I love terminal as much as the next guy, but seriously, my moniter can support more than fonts and monochromatic colors. why should I put up with it? lol
[07:36] <unix_infidel> Snake__: really, that's why most system admins use kde tools to manage all their services.
[07:37] <Hostile> I just find GUI's are beating around the bush, just doing the same thing with commands that you could do yourself in less time
[07:37] <unix_infidel> i wonder how many of you kiddos that like the pretty pictures get paid nearly enough to admire the pretty pictures as opposed to code them.
[07:37] <unix_infidel> iono, just an opinion.  nothing personal, dont expect yall to learn every which way, just the way i'm looking for :)
[07:37] <unix_infidel> brb.
[07:37] <Snake__> unix_infidel: very true, and I have nothing against running a full command enviroment with a server, but as most of the.......
[07:37] <Snake__> ugh.
[07:38] <Hostile> lol.
[07:38] <Snake__> users are home users...we dont think much about servers in ubuntu
[07:38] <Snake__> THere we go
[07:38] <Snake__> whatever
[07:38] <Snake__> lol
[07:38] <Hostile> If you want a server, use Debian
[07:38] <Hostile> ^_^
[07:38] <Snake__> Hostile: Red Hat for server
[07:38] <Snake__> imo
[07:39] <Hostile> UGH
[07:39] <Hostile> SICK
[07:39] <Hostile> REDHAT BLOWS
[07:39] <Hostile> lol
[07:39] <Snake__> lol
[07:39] <Hostile> I run a Redhat server
[07:39] <Hostile> it makes me hurt myself
[07:39] <Snake__> Haha
[07:40] <Snake__> Hostile: I run a w2k3 server..I know i know, im askin for it
[07:40] <Snake__> lol
[07:40] <Hostile> My home server runs gentoo (it's okay, but it's also causing global warming)
[07:40] <Snake__> But I plan to move it linux when im more familer with linux (i've only been on since novemeber)
[07:40] <[muttox] > wierd problem on kubuntu install, no root password and unable to su or sudo :S
[07:41] <Hostile> [muttox] : sudo passwd
[07:41] <Hostile> to set the root pass
[07:41] <[muttox] > cant sudo
[07:41] <Hostile> oh
[07:41] <Hostile> passwd?
[07:41] <[muttox] > lol yeah
[07:41] <[muttox] > it wouldnt give me a gui on startup so i havent gone through any setup wizard if any existed
[07:41] <Hostile> Hm.
[07:42] <Hostile> Dunno, Odd problem, Sorry I'm just too tired to think right now
[07:42] <Hostile> I'm just sitting around and bsing
[07:42] <[muttox] > so i edited my xorg conf, sudo worked then, got my monitor working now it doesnt :P
[07:42] <Snake__> and im goin to bed
[07:42] <Snake__> Night guys
[07:42] <Hostile> night Snake__
[07:42] <Snake__> Good luck [muttox]
[07:42] <Snake__> cya Hostile
[07:42] <Hostile> later.
[08:21] <unix_infidel> can anyone tell me why flux fonts are different when i do start x as opposed to having kdm handle startfluxbox?
[08:21] <unix_infidel> fonts arent antialiased anymore and i'm getting totally different fonts in my gtk themes.
[08:22] <Hostile> Dude cuz teh kdm gui is teh pwn
[08:25] <unix_infidel> holy jebus.
[08:26] <Hostile> lol
[08:26] <Tallia1Kubuntu> hi there?
[08:26] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i am trying to play a *.vob file in mplayer
[08:27] <Tallia1Kubuntu> it's a 1.7 GB file but it plays only few seconds on a selection menu and then it terminates..
[08:27] <trooper00> i can't seem to get any sound out of gaim but nothing else is having a problem. is there a simple workaround? for example, what command could i run to play the sounds?
[08:27] <Tallia1Kubuntu> how can i choose the chapter? in the main screen i can't click :(
[08:27] <Tallia1Kubuntu> or better, if i click it doesn't happen anything
[08:51] <KaoticEvil> hey everyone :)
[08:51] <MeshGearFox> Haaaaa :D
[08:52] <KaoticEvil> anyone ever messed about with ndiswrapper?
[08:52] <MeshGearFox> Ah, just gonna shoot this out real quick, but how do I mount a swap partition? checked online, but it just says to, er, mount it and then do swapon on it.
[08:53] <EightiesK> hello
[08:53] <MeshGearFox> :D
[08:54] <EightiesK> I use Fedora Cores grub booter but i wanna erase my fc4 to install react os. how would i go about doing that so i can keep kubuntu and windows and now react os
[08:55] <MeshGearFox> Eighties: I don't know much about this, but I know there are Kubuntu/Ubuntu tutorials on installing XP AFTER kubuntu.
[08:55] <MeshGearFox> Which messes up GRUB somehow, and, like, knocks Linux out of it, or just stops it from running and boots to windows by default.
[08:55] <EightiesK> !grub
[08:55] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[08:56] <MeshGearFox> Anyway, if you haven't checked those, I THINK the same principles should apply.
[08:56] <MeshGearFox> !swap
[08:56] <ubotu> well, swap is used to put unused programs out of memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SwapFaq
[08:59] <KaoticEvil> how easy (or difficult) is it to compile a new kernel under kubuntu (breezy)?
[08:59] <KaoticEvil> is it any more difficult than under any other distro? and can i simply go to kernel.org and get the latest and go from there?
[09:02] <trooper00> KatoicEvil: use the debian method for compiling your kernel (make-kpkg, etc). shoud be some howtos listed in google
[09:02] <KaoticEvil> hmmmm... ok
[09:03] <trooper00> KaoticEvil: : use the debian method for compiling your kernel (make-kpkg, etc). shoud be some howtos listed in google.. but yeah, you could just get the latest kernel and compile it as you would on any distro
[09:03] <KaoticEvil> trooper00> the reason i ask, is my wireless card requires ndiswrapper to run under linux...
[09:05] <trooper00> KaoticEvil: shouldn't matter if you are using the same configuration. get the latest source.. use the configuration you find in /boot, tweak with care.. but when its time to compile, use make-kpkg and a deb file will be created for you.
[09:05] <KaoticEvil> ok, wool
[09:05] <KaoticEvil> cool even
[09:08] <KaoticEvil> ok, well thanks trooper00 :)
[09:09] <MeshGearFox> Hahah. I typoed and made a sawp file.
[09:09] <MeshGearFox> I suck at the linux >:D

[09:27] <yello> the kubuntu ones
[09:28] <yello> i almost did the ubuntu one (cos i thought ubuntu and kubuntu were the same)
[09:28] <KillerKiwi2005> so you've installed zenity?
[09:28] <yello> but i didnt

[09:48] <yello> hey all does anyone know how to use custom system icons for example the ricebowl icon set on kde look
[09:54] <_david> hey, I heard that the kubuntu dapper install is from a livecd, do you why there is for the alpaha (flight 4) release still an install and livecd version for download?
[09:57] <alcros> Hi, I just installed kubuntu but when it starts leaves me at the getty, no graphical login nor kde
[09:57] <alcros> any ideas?
[09:59] <jewstercollies> did you so a server install
[09:59] <DeLeon> hello
[09:59] <alcros> no
[10:00] <alcros> I installed normally
[10:00] <jewstercollies> can you startx
[10:00] <alcros> no,
[10:00] <alcros> I installed the fglrx driver for the ATI video card
[10:00] <OculusAquilae> hi
[10:01] <OculusAquilae> does anobody know how to get the Output of "startkde"?
[10:01] <alcros> but 'ati' or 'fglrx' fail to load
[10:03] <alcros> startx gives me the following message: fatal server error: Module load failure
[10:05] <DeLeon> does someone knows any undernet server name?
[10:05] <_david> alcros: try modprobe fglrx
[10:05] <jewstercollies> what ati card
[10:06] <haakonn> hi, how to upgrade to kde 3.5.1? i've put ftp://bolugftp.uni-bonn.de/pub/kde/stable/3.5.1/kubuntu in my sources.list, but there only seems to be 3.5.0 packages there
[10:07] <alcros> no, it didn't work, it is an ati radeon 200M
[10:08] <alcros> but fglrx is loaded according to lsmod
[10:08] <haakonn> in fact all the mirrors linked to from http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-351.php seems to only have 3.5.0 packages, judging from the file names
[10:21] <DHGE> haakonn: deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde351/ breezy main
[10:21] <haakonn> DHGE:  ah, 3.5.1 filenames, finally :) though i usually try to avoid using "main" sites
[10:22] <DHGE> put up a mirror ;-)
[10:23] <haakonn> naah :)
[10:23] <haakonn> kubuntu.org is damn fast anyway
[10:23] <haakonn> in fact i didn't know my dsl could pull that much
[11:10] <VincentMX> hi
[11:20] <Otis> hi people .... I've installed w32codecs and KMPlayer ... when I click on a WMV that's on my HD, KMPlayer starts ok but it says "Player mplayer Not Running" .... any ideas what's wrong ?
[11:20] <Otis> (I've tried a lot of howtos found on various forums)
[11:20] <hugelmopf> Otis: have you tried playing it directly in mplayer?
[11:22] <Otis> hm, good point ... let me see
[11:22] <Otis> hehe .... ok, looks like I just haven't got mplayer ... sorry, I'm thick
[11:23] <Otis> (all the howtos just said install w32codecs and a couple more things "et voila" but no)
[11:24] <Otis> hugelmopf: it doesn't appear in Synaptic ... do I need to add a source to my sources.list file ?
[11:24] <hugelmopf> Otis: one second, let me check. (where did you get kmplayer from?)
[11:24] <Otis> hugelmopf: or do I need to go and find a deb package somewhere to install it ?
[11:24] <Otis> let me check
[11:25] <Otis> http://mysite.verizon.net/vze1ui63/debs/kmplayer.0.9.1a.tar.gz
[11:25] <Otis> some random dude basically :-)
[11:26] <hugelmopf> Otis: mplayer-586 is in multiverse
[11:26] <Otis> aha ... I guess I don't have multiverse enabled in my sources.list (would have sworn)
[11:26] <Otis> me go see
[11:27] <Otis> I guess it would have been clever to check this out first : http://kmplayer.kde.org
[11:27] <Otis> tee-hee
[11:30] <Otis> I don't see mplayer-586* in Synaptic .... isn't this URL enough to see "multiverse" deb http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[11:30] <Otis> ?
[11:30] <hugelmopf> Otis: no, this is only multiverse component of "breezy-backports". you will also need it for "breezy" itself
[11:31] <Otis> ah ok (still figuring out the sources thing) ... can you recommend a URL ?
[11:31] <Otis> or do I just need to add a slightly modified version of that URL ?
[11:31] <hugelmopf> deb http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted universe multiverse
[11:31] <hugelmopf> this is what your breezy line should look like if you are from the netherlands
[11:31] <Otis> hugelmopf: ok, I'll do that, thanks
[11:32] <hugelmopf> Otis: don't replace the breezy-backports line with this, but the breezy line!
[11:33] <Otis> yep
[11:33] <hugelmopf> Otis: btw... http://archive.czessi.net has fairly trustworthy breezy packages for kmplayer
[11:34] <hugelmopf> and more kde multimedia stuff.  apt line:  "deb http://archive.czessi.net breezy stable stable-updates"
[11:37] <Otis> hugelmopf: I'm having trouble building a satisfactory URL for the sources.list file ... trial-and-error
[11:37] <Otis> I'll stick your last one in there
[11:38] <hugelmopf> Otis: there is not only one URL, but you can place arbitrarily many sources in there.
[11:38] <hugelmopf> Otis: have you read the wiki page about that?
[11:38] <Otis> oh, I need some key
[11:38] <Otis> I'll go check ... the wiki ? which wiki ?
[11:39] <hugelmopf> !sources
[11:39] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[11:39] <Otis> I'm guessing I should browse to that url
[11:39] <hugelmopf> look at ubotus information
[11:39] <Otis> I'm familiar with "how to add sources" I'm doing that right now ... it's a matter of getting the right URLs
[11:39] <hugelmopf> !easysource
[11:39] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[11:40] <Otis> ah, that looks good
[11:40] <Otis> oh neat !
[11:41] <hugelmopf> about czessi.net (which is not included in the source-o-matic), look at http://www.czessi.net/apt.php?i18n=de
[11:42] <hugelmopf> err, sorry, that was the german version.
[11:46] <Otis> frustration slowly growing here.... synaptic throws loads of errors on archive.czessi.net URLs
[11:47] <Otis> I'll try something else
[11:47] <Otis> made with source-o-matic
[11:47] <hugelmopf> you don't have to use it, especially not if you find everything you need in the official repositories
[11:48] <hugelmopf> but are the "frustrating" (errhmmm) errors probably just warnings about the missing gpg key?
[11:49] <Otis> I forget the details, I'll paste some stuff if I run into it with the other URLs I'm trying out
[11:50] <Otis> Couldn't stat source package list ftp://cipherfunk.org breezy/main Packages
[11:51] <Otis> still no mplayer *grrrr*
[11:51] <Otis> that's the error I was getting with the czessi link too
[11:51] <hugelmopf> did you update?
[11:51] <Otis> duh ... last time yes, not this time ...
[11:52] <Otis> insane ... still no joy ... I must be missing something (I *did* do the gpg commands to insert the keys)
[11:53] <Otis> ok, I'll give the czessi links another try
[11:53] <hugelmopf> if you are not afraid of the command line, your best bet is to do a "sudo apt-get update" there
[11:53] <hugelmopf> and if errors appear, paste them in the pastebin
[11:53] <hugelmopf> including your sources.list
[11:54] <Otis> hugelmopf: no, not afraid ... just tend to use a GUI where available ... brb with the results
[11:54] <hugelmopf> Otis: i know. GUI's are fine, just for support via IRC sometimes a bit difficult.
[11:57] <Otis> hugelmopf: wow, this is starting to get silly .... got the keys installed for czessi ... still no mplayer
[11:57] <Otis> I'll try an apt-get mplayer from cmd line
[11:58] <hugelmopf> Otis: if you need help, paste your sources.list, output of "sudo apt-get update" and output of "sudo apt-get install mplayer-586" in kubuntu.pastebin.com
[11:58] <Otis> ok, shall do ... you're a star
[11:59] <Otis> hang on .... I should have "multiverse" on the end of the czessi line
[11:59] <Otis> I'll add that now
[11:59] <hugelmopf> no
[12:00] <hugelmopf> deb http://archive.czessi.net breezy stable stable-updates
[12:01] <hugelmopf> this line means: binary debs of the "stable" and "stable-updates" components of czessi's repository for release "breezy" can be found at http://archive.czessi.net
[12:01] <Otis> ah ok
[12:04] <Otis> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/562479
[12:04] <Otis> please ?
[12:04] <Otis> I just need to do the 2nd command above
[12:04] <hugelmopf> this looks fine
[12:05] <hugelmopf> now you can try to install mplayer-586 and kmplayer
[12:05] <hugelmopf> "sudo apt-get install mplayer-586"
[12:05] <hugelmopf> sorry
[12:06] <hugelmopf> i overlooked one thing. you still don't have multiverse for breezy activated.
[12:06] <hugelmopf> did you paste your sources.list ?
[12:06] <Otis> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/562482
[12:06] <Otis> er no, let me do that
[12:07] <Otis> maybe it's good to know that I got kmplayer from some website somewhere
[12:07] <hugelmopf> don't worry about kmplayer yet.
[12:07] <Otis> maybe that's what's causing the problem
[12:07] <hugelmopf> no
[12:07] <hugelmopf> i know what your problem is, i just need your sources.list to fix it
[12:07] <Otis> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/562485
[12:08] <Otis> here you go
[12:08] <Otis> hugelmopf: I figured I was missing the multiverse bit ! :-)
[12:08] <Otis> I tried to add it myself but with no joy ... not sure how to build a source URL from scratch
[12:08] <Otis> and browsing czessi doesn't exactly inspire
[12:09] <Otis> ;-)
[12:09] <hugelmopf> one sec
[12:10] <hugelmopf> make these two changes, then do a "sudo apt-get update" and it should work: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/562487
[12:11] <hugelmopf> the explanation: before, you only had multiverse activated for the breezy-backports repository (which is only supplementary to breezy), not for the breezy repository itself.
[12:12] <Otis> yay
[12:12] <Otis> that was it
[12:12] <Otis> no need for czessi or other stuff ... just needed adding the multiverse to my existing lines ... THANKS !
[12:13] <hugelmopf> Otis: correct. but if you want a repository, where you can get kmplayer (and updates for it), you need czessi
[12:13] <Otis> oh ok
[12:13] <Otis> ahem ... E: I wasn't able to locate file for the liblame0 package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
[12:14] <Otis> I guess I have to put the czessi link back in to sources.list, right ?
[12:14] <hugelmopf> no. when did this error happen?
[12:15] <Otis> I did a reload in Synaptic, searched for mplayer, saw the good packages (yay!) and marked for install ...
[12:15] <Otis> while it's installing it's selected a whole bunch of dependants ... and then that error
[12:16] <hugelmopf> can you do "sudo apt-get install mplayer-586" and paste its output?
[12:16] <Otis> yup
[12:18] <Otis> WOW, it worked this time
[12:18] <Otis> *ergh* ?????
[12:18] <Otis> ah well, not complaining ;-)
[12:18] <hugelmopf> maybe you had some strange selections saved in synaptic
[12:18] <Otis> sooooo ... let's see if it works now !
[12:18] <Otis> always possible I guess
[12:19] <Otis> hehe, it starts !
[12:20] <hugelmopf> Otis: kmplayer or mplayer?
[12:21] <Otis> mplayer
[12:21] <Otis> now for kmplayer
[12:22] <hugelmopf> try it with the one you have already installed
[12:22] <MetaMorfoziS> hey! where i can warn about my country's name is mispelled? http://www.kubuntu.org/download.php
[12:22] <MetaMorfoziS> see: hungry:)
[12:22] <MetaMorfoziS> not hungary:)
[12:25] <Otis> hugelmopf: ah, well .... KMplayer tells me "Player mplayer Buffering" ... but it doesn't play
[12:25] <hugelmopf> maybe it needs a second for buffering
[12:25] <hugelmopf> or is it local?
[12:25] <Otis> hugelmopf: I got to go for a while ... thanks for all the help so far
[12:25] <Otis> hugelmopf: local file
[12:25] <Otis> already played nicely from mplayer .... I guess I have to configure KMplayer properly
[12:25] <hugelmopf> yep... good luck
[12:25] <Otis> cheers
[12:27] <Otis> hugelmopf: WEIRD ! KMPlayer has started showing the vid !
[12:28] <Otis> it just seems to take forever to start playing back
[12:28] <hugelmopf> and does it play ok?
[12:28] <Otis> I'm going to uninstall this KMplayer (doubtful origin) and see if czessi has a more reliable one
[12:28] <hugelmopf> yes, sounds like a plan.
[12:29] <Otis> hugelmopf: well it looked ok for the 10s I let it play
[12:29] <Otis> ok, MUST have lunch with wife and baby :-)
[12:29] <hugelmopf> maybe the wmv is not the file, but only a link to a URL?
[12:29] <hugelmopf> ok
[12:29] <Otis> talk later and thanks a lot
[12:29] <hugelmopf> laters
[12:29] <Otis> (no, got a 4 MB file there on the HD)
[12:29] <Otis> cheers
[12:29] <Otis> l8r

[02:39] <simone> hi guy!
[02:39] <simone> someone can help me? I want to change my default soundcard
[02:40] <simone> how do I do?
[02:42] <dst20> bonjour a tous
[02:43] <dst20> je cherche a installer une clef usb wifi pour ubuntu
[02:46] <Cainus> anyone know if there's a way to turn off the wacky firewall stuff?
[02:49] <Kamping_Kaiser> Cainus: what do you mean?
[02:50] <Cainus> incoming ports are being blocked somehow
[02:51] <Cainus> messing with iptables is getting annoying since I have a firewall between this computer and the internet already
[02:53] <Cainus> so I'd like to turn off whatever firewall is running (i assume there is, since incoming ports appear to be blocked)
[03:05] <tbenita> hi, how can I net-install kubuntu ?
[03:07] <Kamping_Kaiser> afaik you cant
[03:09] <Tm_T> you can
[03:09] <Tm_T> using debian netinstall discs
[03:09] <Tm_T> with little tweak
[03:11] <tbenita> Tm_T, is there some doc on that ?
[03:11] <tbenita> Tm_T, is it just reconfiguring the sources.list ?
[03:12] <Tm_T> I think so
[03:12] <Tm_T> no idea about docs
[03:14] <Cainus> soo... anyone know how to turn off the firewall stuff?
[03:16] <Rodni> Is it possible to back up my data to a network computer using the command line? My GUI crashed and I can only enter in recovery.
[03:16] <tbenita> ok thx Kamping_Kaiser Tm_T
[03:18] <mnoir> where is the setting to start an app on a specific desktop - i seem to have lost it!
[03:19] <tbenita> Rodni, you can do an archive using tar (tar cvfz myarchive.tgz /home for example )  and copy the archive to whereever you want with ftp, scp or anything
[03:21] <Rodni> Sounds good, all I need to do is back up a single folder from home. The rest I have on a seperate hard disk.
[03:22] <Rodni> What command do I use to do that?
[03:22] <Kalidarn> hmm anyone tried to compile qualculate-kde? the a graphics calculator http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=88877 says it compiles properly yet im not sure how and unfortunatly its only in the dapper repo.
[03:22] <Kalidarn> *qalculate-KDE
[03:23] <tbenita> Rodni, as root : "tar cvfz /tmp/home.tgz /home" and "scp /tmp/home.tgz <IP_ADDRESS>:/tmp/" to copy it to the machine <IP_ADDRESS> via ssh
[03:25] <_tijn> hi all
[03:28] <Rodni> oh thanks
[03:29] <Rodni> I hope this works
[03:30] <Rodni> Wait! I have a folder in my home directory called 'Movies'. Can you tell me how to tar only that one and send it across the network/
[03:31] <Rodni> do I just replace 'home' with 'movies' folder?
[03:32] <mnoir> ~username/movies would work
[03:33] <Plouj> hi
[03:33] <mnoir> \/movies would not
[03:34] <Plouj> when I install root (/) on an LVM partition, shouldn't (k)ubuntu crate an initrd for me?
[03:34] <Plouj> I wasn't able to make LILO install on the ubuntu partition either, so
[03:34] <Plouj> I chose the no boot loader option
[03:34] <Plouj> and it told me to use these boot options for my other bootloader:
[03:35] <Plouj> kernel = /boot/vmlinuz, root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu-root, kernel args= root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu-root
[03:35] <Plouj> however, I don't think grub can actually read LVM volumes
[03:40] <Lacerta> Hi. I want to copy all data from my current HD to a new one. What's the best way to do that?
[03:44] <_tijn> how do i use the bot?
[03:45] <GeniusDex> i have grub installed on (hd0) (sda), and i want to boot winXP from (hd1,2) (hda3), but when i use the default windows lines in the grub config it just hangs after the 'boot' command
[03:48] <jarlath> After a few installation attempt, I have finally gotten kubuntu working near perfect. Put I never made a seperate partition for files (incase I need to reinstall). Can I shrink hda1 and add another partition? I read about something like partition magic for linux in a magazine a while back, but I dont recall what it was and what it did.
[03:48] <MetaMorfoziS> Lacerta: mc
[03:49] <MetaMorfoziS> (midnight commander) apt-get install mc
[03:51] <mnoir> Lacerta: be careful -  if it is a disk containing an os, there are some directories that might not copy the way you want - like /dev and /proc
[03:52] <Lacerta> i just kinda want to move this crap to a faster HD
[03:57] <tafsen> Can you change the information on mp3's trough amaroK?
[03:58] <_alex> a program to record video on kde ?
[03:58] <_tijn> if i recall correct.. nope
[03:59] <_tijn> tafsen: i think it gets is info from the dj music db... not sure
[03:59] <tafsen> _tijn: the meta-tag?
[04:01] <_tijn> tafsen: dunno
[04:03] <_tijn> tafsen: is you right click, you can change the meta info
[04:04] <Nomad411> Woudl anyone know the name of that sofware that show you a ton of streaming radios to pick from?  It had a green play button as the icon for it..
[04:04] <_tijn> tafsen: right click -> properties -> meta-info
[04:04] <GeniusDex> live365?
[04:05] <Nomad411> those are a category in it.,.  Somwthing stream I think ..  Oh!!  streamtuner ?
[04:05] <Nomad411> yes!
[04:05] <Nomad411> I just needed to type it outloud.. lol
[04:05] <_tijn> hehe
[04:05] <_tijn> btw, where do i get libdvdcss2?
[04:06] <hugelmopf> !libdvdcss2
[04:06] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[04:07] <_tijn> thnx!
[04:07] <_tijn> to use bot-commands, do i need to be registered?
[04:07] <tafsen> _tijn: right click > edit track info ?
[04:08] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: you still looking for an answer? if the new HD is bigger then the old one, you want to use "dd"
[04:08] <Lacerta> a lot bigger
[04:09] <Lacerta> i'm copying the files now with mc
[04:09] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: that won't help if it is a system disk
[04:09] <Lacerta> k..?
[04:09] <Nomad411> one last question: in kde, if a window extends outside of the window where we can,t grab teh title bar, we can use ALT-drag to grab it from any area.  Is there a similar thing in fluxbox?
[04:09] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: as mnoir pointed out, there are some directories which need special treatment. it might be easier to make a bit-by-bit copy with dd
[04:10] <Lacerta> umm.. is it very complicated command?
[04:10] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: then you only need to reinstall the master boot record (in case it is your primary disk), and everything should work exactly as the old one.
[04:10] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: the dd command is not very difficult
[04:11] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: but it would be best to use it from a knoppix cd, so that the disk you want to copy is not in use. is it your primary (system) disk?
[04:11] <_alex> a program to record video of my desktop?
[04:12] <Lacerta> hugelmopf: yes this is my primary disk
[04:12] <hugelmopf> _alex: what about searching? http://www.google.de/linux?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=record+desktop+video&btnG=Suche&meta=
[04:13] <_alex> i want to make a video of my desktop
[04:14] <hugelmopf> _alex: yes, and i presented you a straightforward search with google yielding the results you are looking for?
[04:14] <mnoir> Lacerta: be careful -  if it is a disk containing an os, there are some directories that might not copy the way you want - like /dev and /proc
[04:14] <mnoir> sorry
[04:14] <mnoir> fatfinger!
[04:14] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: do you know knoppix?
[04:14] <Lacerta> hugelmopf: you mean LiveCD?
[04:14] <_alex> no
[04:15] <mnoir> Lacerta: it is not technically elegant but you might consider reinstalling os on the bigger diak and copying only what you need - this is what often do
[04:15] <mnoir> what 'I' often do...
[04:15] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: knoppix is a live cd, but not the ubuntu LiveCD, you are probably referring to. but the ubuntu one should also work fine.
[04:16] <manveru> you cannot install the ubuntu-live-cd
[04:16] <hugelmopf> manveru: did you read our conversation?
[04:16] <manveru> no, just throwing in random pieces of memories
[04:19] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: it is not easy enough to do it in 5 minutes without knowing about hard drives, partitions, master boot record, grub.
[04:20] <Lacerta> I just don't want to have all the trouble again as i was tweaking the current system
[04:21] <Cainus> hey...can anyone give me a definitive list of repositories?  apt-get can't find java or azureus, and I've enabled every repository in the default file, and I've done an apt-get update
[04:22] <Snake__> Cainus: those arn't avalible in the repos
[04:22] <Snake__> Cainus: blackdown java is I think, but not sun
[04:22] <Cainus> do I need sun?
[04:22] <Snake__> Nope
[04:23] <Snake__> !java
[04:23] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[04:23] <Cainus> some ubuntu docs said apt-get install j2re1.4 would work
[04:23] <Snake__> Yes that would give you blackdown
[04:23] <Cainus> k... but it doesn't :)
[04:23] <Snake__> Cainus: try this
[04:23] <Snake__> sudo apt-get install j2re1.4
[04:23] <Cainus> E: Package j2re1.4 has no installation candidate
[04:23] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: i understand what you mean, and it is absolutely possible. first thing to do is making an exact copy bit by bit with the command "dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb" where /dev/hda would be the hard drive you want to copy to /dev/hdb. but you want to do this from a LiveCD, so that /dev/hda does not change while you are copying it bit-by-bit
[04:24] <Snake__> odd....
[04:24] <Snake__> Cainus: you have your universe enabled?
[04:24] <Cainus> AFAIK
[04:24] <Cainus> lemme double-check
[04:25] <Snake__> Cainus: if you enabling through adept, DONT FORGET TO HIT APPLY BEFORE YOU CLOSE
[04:25] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: but you should read a good tutorial on dd somewhere on the net first.
[04:25] <Snake__> To many people arn't dong that :)
[04:25] <Snake__> *
[04:25] <Snake__> doing**
[04:27] <Cainus> Snake: what should the line look like that enables universe/multiverse?
[04:27] <Cainus> I've got every line enabled anyway :\
[04:27] <Snake__> Cainus: This is for you
[04:27] <Snake__> !sources
[04:27] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[04:27] <Lacerta> hugelmopf: i'm going to try that dd thing. thanks
[04:27] <hugelmopf> Lacerta: this here explains it a bit: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=362506
[04:28] <Snake__> Cainus: Follow the first link, scroll alll the way down to where it says "kubuntu" and the adept instructions are
[04:28] <Cainus> Snake__: yeah I copied all those lines in too
[04:28] <Cainus> been to this page already
[04:28] <Snake__> alright
[04:28] <Snake__> and your sure you hit apply before you hit close?
[04:28] <Cainus> yeah
[04:29] <Cainus> can I just copy this page right into my sources file?
[04:29] <Cainus> adept kinda seems to get in the way a lot
[04:29] <Snake__> Type in apt-cache search blackdown
[04:30] <Cainus> returns with no output
[04:30] <Snake__> *smashes head on desk
[04:30] <Snake__> okay, heres what I want you to do
[04:30] <Snake__> type in "kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list" then pastebin the list, and give me the link
[04:33] <marcus> hallo zusammen
[04:33] <marcus> hab mal ne frage,unter ubuntu wurden die verfgbaren updates automatisch angezeigt.ist das mit kubuntu auch mglich ?
[04:34] <skypa> I'm afraid english is the preferred language here :)
[04:34] <djib> does anyone knows a tool to defragment a fat disk under linux ?
[04:35] <Cainus> Snake__: http://pastebin.com/562749
[04:36] <djib> Cainus: do you really need the src in your sources ?
[04:36] <Snake__> Cainus: Clear that whole thing out, and just put this list un
[04:36] <Snake__> in*
[04:37] <Snake__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[04:37] <jarlath> My system froze just there and I had to pull the plug. I noticed on bootup that no "cleanup" was performed. Is there anything I need to do? Mandriva used to do something on bootup, like clean unused device nodes etc.
[04:37] <Cainus> djib: I was just adding stuff various docs were telling me, trying to get this to work... :\
[04:37] <Snake__> Heh thats what I thought
[04:38] <Snake__> Cainus: Backspace your whole list, and go to where I said, just use that 1
[04:40] <Cainus> ahhh
[04:41] <Cainus> works...
[04:41] <Cainus> finally :)
[04:41] <Cainus> thanks Snake__
[04:41] <Snake__> Did you find your package?
[04:41] <Cainus> yessir
[04:41] <Snake__> Yess
[04:41] <Snake__> :)
[04:41] <Snake__> Good job m8
[04:41] <Cainus> it's too bad sources.list could have these repositories by default
[04:41] <Snake__> Cainus: and azurus isn't in the repos im afraid
[04:41] <Cainus> er couldn't
[04:42] <Cainus> hmm it was in the debian repositories... are those different?
[04:42] <Snake__> Cainus: im sure they would do that, but since its all from outside sources, their protecting your system, and since it contains some files illigal in certain countrys, they are also saving themselves legal trouble
[04:42] <Snake__> Cainus: yes they diffrent
[04:42] <djib> does anyone knows a tool to defragment a fat disk under linux ?
[04:42] <Cainus> ahh okay
[04:43] <Cainus> on debian, I did apt-get install azureus and it even installed all the java crap I need :\
[04:43] <Cainus> but I can do a bit more typing as long as it works
[04:43] <tafsen> I've downloaded a demo version of the Game Northland. It's *.run file. How do I install it?
[04:43] <Snake__> Cainus: The magic of debs: all dependecys taken care of (java would be a dependency)
[04:43] <Snake__> Cainus: Just go to their site and download it, no complie is needed or anything like that
[04:44] <Cainus> yeah I was having probs with that bzipped version
[04:44] <Snake__> Why?
[04:44] <Cainus> well port problems
[04:44] <_qball> hello people! :-)
[04:45] <Snake__> Cainus: then thats A) with your router, or B) You need to open it in the settings
[04:45] <_qball> Anyone here in the mood to help a n00b with a quick question about mounting?
[04:45] <Snake__> Cainus: orr, if your using the default port, most ISPs now block that
[04:45] <Snake__> _qball: just ask
[04:45] <Snake__> if someone can help, they will
[04:46] <_qball> ok I used mount /dev/hda1 /media/partitionname -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8,umask=000 to mount a FAT32 drive but it wont let me copy a folder to the partition
[04:46] <Cainus> Snake__: I had all this running on the same box on debian just a few days ago... so I doubt it's my isp, and I'm good enough with the router to know I've got that right...
[04:46] <_qball> I also used umas=777 made no difference
[04:46] <_qball> cheers Snake_
[04:46] <Snake__> _qball: Hmmm I know your missing something...but I dont know what..
[04:46] <Snake__> like......ugh, let me think
[04:47] <Cainus> if I switch the port-frowarding to my windows box, azureus works fine from there
[04:47] <_qball> well thats directly from the Ubuntu guide
[04:47] <_qball> it mentions nothing about permissions though
[04:47] <Cainus> i'll figure it out sooner or later ;)
[04:47] <Snake__> Hehe
[04:49] <Massacration> hi everyone

[05:02] <_qball> Ok Cheers guys ye have been spectacular, I think Im going to play around with Konversation for a while see
[05:02] <Rodni> do I highlite the root partition and simply press enter/
[05:03] <dbakker> im a debian user who just went to breezy, how do I get to dapper?
[05:03] <visik7> dbakker: change breezy to dapper in sources.list and dist-upgrade
[05:04] <Pingjockey> dbakker: I am pretty sure you can just update your sources.list and apt-get dist-upgrade to the new repos.
[05:04] <Pingjockey> dbakker: I have gone from testing to unstable that way before inside debian
[05:04] <PDD_IE>  ok very strange, how come I can't put the font color picker for Konversation on a lil menu or something that I can click rather than using keyboard shortcuts
[05:05] <dbakker> cool ill give it a shot, ty
[05:06] <PDD_IE> anybody got any ideas?
[05:06] <Pingjockey> With the release of dapper 4 I should be able to use apt to sync everything up to latest right?
[05:08] <Rodni> help me with partitions :(
[05:08] <ryanakca> hmmm.... if I install gimp 2.2.10 using the .debs from here: http://packages.debian.org/testing/graphics/gimp  , will it still work on Kubuntu breezy?
[05:08] <Pingjockey> Rodni: whats the issue
[05:09] <Rodni> Pingjockey my Kubuntu is kaput. I want to reinstall it but not lose the data in my home folder.
[05:09] <Rodni> Im currently at the partition screen on the installer
[05:09] <Pingjockey> Rodni: Where is your home folder located?
[05:09] <Rodni> on a seperate partition
[05:09] <Rodni> logical /media/hd6
[05:10] <Rodni> hda6 sorry
[05:11] <Pingjockey> well you can approach this from a few different ways.... do you have an external hard drive?
[05:11] <Rodni> no
[05:11] <Pingjockey> hmm...
[05:12] <Pingjockey> whats going to be your new partioning scheme?
[05:12] <Rodni> I want to keep it current and just make kubuntu work
[05:12] <_tijn> if its on a seperate partition
[05:12] <_tijn> its ok
[05:12] <ryanakca> rodni: My home folder is kinda small, so I just used knoppix, got the folder, tarballed it, and ftped it to my other box
[05:12] <Rodni> but Im not sure what options to select
[05:12] <_tijn> only manually edit the partition on which you want to install
[05:13] <Pingjockey> Thats what I was going to suggest next ryanakca good call
[05:13] <ryanakca> pingjockey: ty
[05:13] <ryanakca> hmmm.... if I install gimp 2.2.10 using the .debs from here: http://packages.debian.org/testing/graphics/gimp  , will it still work on Kubuntu/Ubuntu breezy?
[05:13] <Pingjockey> whats wrong with your current installation rodni... maybe we can recover it
[05:13] <_tijn> you van mount hda6 as /home
[05:13] <Rodni> well it shows me my current partitions, so do I just select the one which is root and press enter to install there only?
[05:14] <Pingjockey> ryanakca: not sure if you can mix like that
[05:14] <Rodni> It was a kernel error due to a broken installation
[05:14] <Rodni> I can access only recovery mode
[05:14] <ryanakca> Pingjockey: kk, thanks... I was hoping not to have to compile from source... when I compile things... I allwais tend to mess up my computer :)
[05:15] <Pingjockey> Rodni: ok, well what did you change.... did you try to compile a custom kernel or do you have new hardware...?
[05:16] <tecs> how about the updates in software updates is it adviceable to update?
[05:16] <Pingjockey> Rodni: sorry a broken installation..
[05:16] <Rodni> No, like I said I tried to install VLC and nvidia drivers and next thing I cant boot to kubuntu anymore
[05:16] <Rodni> Fatal Error of some kind in the mvcmr or something like that
[05:17] <Rodni> I think i remember it was line 48
[05:17] <Pingjockey> hmm.... never played with recovery mode.. does the network work in reocvery mode?
[05:17] <Rodni> but wont bet on it
[05:17] <Rodni> I dont know
[05:17] <Pingjockey> what about aptitude?
[05:17] <Rodni> I dont know network commands to transfer stuff out to other pc
[05:17] <Pingjockey> you can always uninstall the files using apt that broke the installation to start with
[05:18] <Rodni> sounds too much of a hassle for me, especially not knowing the command line.
[05:19] <Rodni> thats why I procceded with the kubuntu disk in order to somehow reinstall to its original state
[05:19] <Rodni> just not sure how do I make the home partition safe so it wont get erazed
[05:19] <Rodni> As soon as I get into kubuntu again Im happy.
[05:20] <Pingjockey> its easy.. boot into recovery mode and launch aptitude.... should be there.... its like synaptic but for the cli... but if you want to reinstall I would just make seperate parititons... and install / to one of those partions....
[05:21] <Pingjockey> yup just checked... aptitude is installed by default
[05:21] <Pingjockey> did you use synaptic to install nvidia-kernel?
[05:21] <Rodni> ok say I cancel this and go to aptitude. What does that do?
[05:21] <Rodni> I used the kubuntu packet manager
[05:22] <Rodni> Apget?
[05:22] <Rodni> Adet?
[05:22] <Pingjockey> it will bring you into a ncurses like verison of adpet or synapitc...
[05:22] <MetaMorfoziS> adept
[05:22] <Rodni> ah thats the one
[05:22] <Pingjockey> sorry typo... lack of coffee
[05:22] <MetaMorfoziS> synaptic is better than adept i think.
[05:22] <Pingjockey> I concur
[05:23] <MetaMorfoziS> synaptic can search in the descriptions etc..
[05:23] <Pingjockey> I like kpackage as well
[05:23] <MetaMorfoziS> and tell me what size of the all downloads before start ...
[05:23] <MetaMorfoziS> i didn't try kpackage..
[05:23] <Rodni> so if I get into aptitude then use apt-get upgrade, my system should be up and running?
[05:24] <Pingjockey> anyway Rodni, just do a sudo aptitude and you remember what you installed before everything broke?
[05:24] <Rodni> haha no not really. I used a command I saw on IRC and that was it
[05:24] <Pingjockey> Rodni: you could just apt-get update and then apt-get dist-upgrade as well
[05:25] <Rodni> thats the problem with beginners. We copy what we see here not from a manual in a book
[05:25] <Pingjockey> but we need to see what kernel got installed and such
[05:25] <Rodni> My kernel is .12
[05:25] <Pingjockey> ok
[05:25] <Rodni> well actually the default stuff from kubuntu
[05:26] <Rodni> Fine. Let me cancel this and I will give aptitude a go.
[05:26] <Pingjockey> Rodni: bear with me because I am just coming over from the gentoo world.. Been there for like 2 1/2 yrs...
[05:26] <Pingjockey> Debian stuff is new to me
[05:26] <Rodni> no problem
[05:26] <Rodni> can I ask why swapped from Gentoo? Most people try to go the other way aroound
