00:31.59 | gemidjy | Sho_ I ask this because I find it totally useless...I stored pass for my KMail accounts and It prompts me for the pass's every time KDE gets restarted (kdm)...then what is the point of kwallet system |
00:33.20 | Sho_ | gemidjy: The point of the KWallet system is a central storage of authentication data with a master password. I.e. I regularly open a few FTPs in Konq, and I have Jabber account set up in Kopete, and can use the same password for both. |
00:33.52 | gemidjy | well, ok, but do you type in the pass every time you request access to Kopete/Konqi ? |
00:34.10 | gemidjy | [no konqi, just kopete] |
00:34.56 | Sho_ | gemidjy: No, KWallet can be configured so that giving the master pw once "unlocks" the wallet for that session, and KWallet does the rest from that point on |
00:35.06 | Sho_ | gemidjy: "For that session" can also be "for this amount of time", IIRC |
00:35.17 | Sho_ | gemidjy: You could even create passwordless wallet, although that would be stupid of course |

00:36.35 | Sho_ | gemidjy: Well, the point is that KWallet fills those in for you |
00:36.46 | gemidjy | it doesn't, at least not for me |
00:36.59 | Sho_ | gemidjy: Hm then the wallet system is not enabled perhaps |
00:37.08 | gemidjy | it is, positive |

02:00.06 | DaBlade | Maybe it also applies here |
02:00.37 | lgsobalvarro | well DaBlade in suse if you want chage the DM you only need use YaST |
02:00.52 | DaBlade | damn. |
02:02.01 | plb | anyone use debian unstable in here? |
02:03.40 | lgsobalvarro | DaBlade maybe is: dpkg-reconfigure kdm |
02:03.55 | DaBlade | I just asked in #debian, that's what they said |
02:03.58 | DaBlade | and it worked |
02:04.28 | plb | anyone run into unknown host errors with only kde apps? |

02:07.45 | AssociateX | My BIOS clock is set correctly but when KDE comes up the clock is off. If I reset the clock on KDE my BIOS clock changes and is then wrong. How do I correct this. Gentoo. |

02:28.59 | damjan | AssociateX: Unix/Linux keeps it's internal/system time in the UTC timezone |
02:28.59 | damjan | AssociateX: ..beacuse it's a multiuser system, and users can login from different timezones |
02:29.02 | damjan | AssociateX: so ... it's natural to keep the same UTC clock in the BIOS too |
02:29.49 | damjan | AssociateX: it converts to the local time only when displaying the time (what you see in KDE) |
02:31.04 | damjan | AssociateX: the benefit is, it never needs to change the BIOS and internal clocks for daylight saving |
02:32.36 | damjan | because it just calculates it (the DST) when time is displayed, according to the user specified timezone |
02:35.28 | Bambino | Not related to kde. but whilst on a ftp and i wanna copy everything from the ftp to my folder. what do I type? |

06:58.00 | mhall | backpocket: well that's bandwidth hungry and SSH links are slow so i'm not surprised |
06:58.07 | mhall | backpocket: is it faster if you use VNC? |
06:58.27 | mhall | backpocket: i doubt it's any better but you can try it, plus vnc is encrypted by itself if you use the proper release |
06:58.38 | backpocket | well I dont want/need a whole remote desktop ala freeNX |
06:58.49 | mhall | backpocket: ok nevermind then |
06:58.58 | backpocket | mhall, I fwd a port inbound from the public to my SSH box |
06:59.12 | backpocket | so I can reach my work-WAN behind the corporate gfirewall |
06:59.20 | backpocket | ..from home |
06:59.46 | backpocket | the oprt redirect works well for vnc and rdp |
06:59.48 | backpocket | port* |
07:00.20 | backpocket | but sometimes I want to run encrypted apps off the sh server itself (not redirect from the ssh server off to another box..) and that's the only sluggish part left |
07:00.27 | mhall | RDP is obviously the best solution because it has the smartest protocol of course though it's not supported on linux since it's proprietary as fucking hell |
07:00.35 | backpocket | I'm just bean-counting tweaking -- I do this when I am bored. |
07:00.47 | backpocket | well rdp works fine for reaching other win boxes |
07:00.55 | backpocket | off the ssh session redirected tunnel |
07:00.57 | backpocket | as does vnc |
07:01.01 | mhall | right and it's way way faster than any of the unix approaches by far |
07:01.21 | backpocket | pretty quick with the bandwidth I got + the arcfour encryption which is speedy |

07:03.07 | RockT | morning |
07:03.12 | mhall | like, some asshole with no insurance rear-ended my truck and damaged the frame |
07:03.17 | mhall | so i have nothing to drive |
07:03.21 | backpocket | mhall, you mean with a vpn client? yea big issues trying to get that going |
07:03.34 | backpocket | I tried rather hard trying to get citrix client running on linux 0- that failed too |
07:03.39 | mhall | meanwhile i have this eye infection developing and i need some drops because my eyes are killing me |
07:03.47 | mhall | and he won't drive me to the store to get drops |
07:03.50 | backpocket | the latest citrix client insisted on an older version of openmotif...... I had to downgrade - shit still didnt work |
07:04.09 | backpocket | ouch mhall |
07:04.30 | mhall | then also yesterday i asked for help moving some furniture- he promised to come help but watched tv and played games instead and showed up after i went to bed forcing me to have to wake up from bed to do it |
07:04.44 | backpocket | sounds like he is a fair weather friend |
07:04.48 | backpocket | I've had plenty of those |
07:04.50 | mhall | then also, i have this serious problem that stresses me out, my mom calls me and blames me for this car accident |
07:05.05 | mhall | and i needed somebody to complain to for just a couple of minutes |
07:05.13 | mhall | but of course video games are more important |
07:05.28 | Firztspawn | what video game? |
07:05.32 | mhall | the most fucked up part is i was planning on sharing my college graduation party with him |
07:05.32 | backpocket | i'd reevalutate your classification of him as a friend imho |
07:05.44 | mhall | and he'd been a good friend up until now |
07:05.51 | mhall | so this is going to cause a fucking problem |

07:07.33 | mhall | and my friend too, what an asshole he's turned out to be |

07:16.35 | backpocket | for example... setting up a vpn client for sonicwall on linux? Yea I gave up on that. |
07:16.43 | backpocket | Using SSH tunneling as an alternative. |
07:16.53 | backpocket | yea mhall :) |
07:17.06 | mhall | point to point tunneling protocol isn't bad if you have linux 2.6 with PPP MPPE compression enabled |

07:17.19 | backpocket | well with linux boxes on both ends, yea I'm sure its easier |
07:17.28 | backpocket | but in my world, I have to hook up to a sonicwall |
07:17.31 | mhall | irony is of course that PPTP is entirely insecure |
07:17.51 | mhall | backpocket: right-o but i meant with Linux as client bool-or server, that setup is the key |
07:17.58 | backpocket | I'm happy with ssh from linunx... from windows, the sonicwall global vpn client works fine, of course. |

07:19.08 | mhall | those samba people are obscenely dedicated |
07:19.26 | backpocket | I dont use samba to mount shares anymore... use cifs (faster) |
07:19.32 | mhall | they have to reverse engineer everything, many times with byte orders wrong, sessions encrypted, ack, just horrible horrible stuff |

07:20.01 | backpocket | I thought they were part of the whole |
07:20.17 | Q-collective | hehe |
07:20.18 | mhall | well cifs is really just like the next release of smb |
07:20.28 | mhall | M$ just named it all wonky to try to make more $ |
07:20.34 | backpocket | I do mount -t cifs //windows/share /local/path -o username=blah,uid=myuser |
07:20.47 | mhall | backpocket: right-o that's because client is in kernel |
07:20.49 | backpocket | used to do smbmount |
07:21.03 | *** join/#kde Ze_M (n=Ze-M@unaffiliated/zem/x-000001) |
07:21.04 | mhall | backpocket: yeah but smbmount is not what you are supposed to do |
07:21.13 | backpocket | howso (curious) |
07:21.19 | backpocket | meaning, why is smbmount "bad" |
07:21.24 | mhall | This command is designed to be run from within /bin/mount by giving |
07:21.24 | mhall | the option '-t smbfs'. For example: mount -t smbfs -o username=tridge,password=foobar //fjall/test /data/test |
07:21.42 | mhall | if you don't believe me read the output from a plain jane run of your smbmount binary |
07:21.50 | mhall | you will see the above notification |
07:22.00 | mhall | so really the parallel commands would be as follows |
07:22.15 | mhall | mount -t cifs //windows/share /local/path -o username=blah,uid=myuser -AND- mount -t smbfs //windows/share /local/path -o username=blah,uid=myuser |
07:22.34 | mhall | if you look in the kernel config you will see following stuff |
07:22.57 | mhall | CONFIG_CIFS=y |
07:23.08 | mhall | CONFIG_SMB_FS=y |
07:23.14 | *** join/#kde hkBst (n=marijn@8pc222.sshunet.nl) |
07:23.34 | mhall | they are simply kernel clients that talk over the network in the CIFS or SMB protocols and then put it into your directory tree |
07:23.48 | mhall | so really what mount does is simply pass stuff into the kernel with the right syscalls |
07:24.07 | backpocket | so smb was doing it wrong |
07:24.11 | backpocket | yet the result worked |
07:24.50 | mhall | well the calls you use and arguments you pass are fs-specific |
07:24.58 | mhall | different fses require different calls and options |
07:25.02 | backpocket | ah |
07:25.07 | mhall | so in fact, mount uses smbmount to make the smb calls |
07:25.15 | backpocket | so mount passes it the kernel making the fs irrelevant |
07:25.17 | backpocket | i see |
07:25.26 | mhall | and uses mount.cifs to make the cifs calls |
07:25.39 | mhall | but in the end, once it's mounted, everything is almost transparent |
07:26.02 | mhall | the mount process is fs-specific, but reading writing creating, and directory stuff, and link stuff, these apis are fs-independent |
07:26.21 | mhall | each fs does it differently down below but the higher parts of the kernel and the c library don't need to know |
07:26.25 | backpocket | about 3 yrs ago I endeavoured to rid myself of the need for windows ... 3 yrs later I'm 97$ there. |
07:26.29 | backpocket | 97% even |
07:26.39 | mhall | all you have got to look for if you're a C programmer is error codes from your fs functions |
07:26.53 | mhall | like if you make a symbolic link on SMB, that will fail with an error code |
07:27.10 | *** join/#kde g8m (n=evil@cp82868-a.dbsch1.nb.home.nl) |
07:27.10 | backpocket | yea I got that mhall - almost like a superserver -- the fs is not relevant at the kernel level ... the fs takes care of itself without a virtualization as smb I suppose was doing |
07:27.14 | mhall | but if you do it on any of the other oses that support em, the call behaves the same way on each working fs |
07:27.34 | mhall | this is the basic idea behind kernels and C libraries in unix |

07:27.58 | mhall | everything else just falls into place pretty naturally |
07:28.18 | mhall | so it's actually good you brought up your example |
07:28.27 | backpocket | it is? |
07:28.28 | mhall | because you really struck at the heart of the unix philosophy |
07:28.43 | mhall | it was a good way to explore the way unix thinks about things |
07:28.56 | mhall | and good software design in general tends to work the same way |
07:29.09 | mhall | you have modules which make deals with each other about how they interface |
07:29.21 | mhall | and some modules will take care of dirty work and hide how it's done |
07:29.35 | mhall | and other modules just talk to the module and the problem is taken care of, like a black box |
07:29.40 | backpocket | yea, core services passing instructions down, leveraging existing virtualizations which handle themselves irrespective of the writes/reads... |
07:29.44 | mhall | you don't care how it does it, you just know it works |
07:30.09 | backpocket | similar to the babel fish in Hithiker's guide to the galaxy |
07:30.14 | backpocket | ...or the universal translator :) |
07:30.35 | Q-collective | hhgttg++ |
07:30.40 | mhall | right about the fish-- this is also a good reason why we have the old joke: those who fail to learn unix are doomed to reinvent it poorly |
07:31.03 | Q-collective | :) |
07:31.07 | mhall | because the design principle unix used to get the job done is about the best there is |
07:31.23 | mhall | so if you ignore this idea and go off on a tangent you're pretty much guaranteed to do worse |
07:31.38 | mhall | of course it's got rough edges so this isn't perfectly true |
07:31.42 | backpocket | <cough> bill <cough> |
07:31.50 | Q-collective | well, the current linux world isn't that great either |
07:31.51 | mhall | but you can see as an admin how bad drive letters are for example |
07:32.00 | Q-collective | network transparency is awfully done |
07:32.09 | Q-collective | kde is just about the only one to do it right |

07:32.18 | backpocket | drive letters can complicate things -- being pc-specific it makes it difficult to get things done on occasion |
07:32.20 | mhall | Q-collective: yeah you are surely correct there |
07:33.05 | mhall | Q-collective: plan 9 fixed it but nobody switched, which leads to the next joke: the worst thing that can happen to a brilliant new operating system is an old one that's just barely good enough to get the job done :-) |
07:33.35 | mhall | backpocket: exactly, by deviating from UNIX they made problems worse ;) |
07:33.35 | backpocket | mhall another very godo example of what you're referring to... is server virtualization |

07:50.19 | mhall | no there is a linux equivalent |
07:50.29 | Q-collective | dvd shrink is some wannabe dvd::rip? |
07:50.39 | mhall | xdvdshrink - copies of DVD content on single-layer writable DVDs |
07:50.45 | mhall | k9copy - copy DVD like dvdshrink |
07:50.57 | mhall | Q-collective: yes and no |
07:51.07 | Q-collective | :) |
07:51.16 | mhall | Q-collective: it's mostly a 2-layer to 1-layer reformatter and extras stripper |
07:51.23 | Q-collective | ah |
07:51.28 | backpocket | yea it allows for the dual layer movies (longer movies) to be nicely placed on a single layer |
07:51.37 | peppelorum | Is it possible to hide the "switch user" and "lock session" i n the k-menu? |
07:51.45 | mhall | Q-collective: and it's meant to be wizardish, requiring minimal intervention to DeCSS, select files, and reformat the MPEG 2 stream to make it tinier |
07:51.47 | backpocket | also nicely strips out subtites in other language sif you dont want it -- menus, etc. |
07:52.03 | Q-collective | mhall: interesting |
07:52.09 | backpocket | I gather that k9copy is the equivalent? |
07:52.09 | mhall | backpocket: k9copy is the generally accepted linux incantation btw |
07:52.09 | Q-collective | hmm |
07:52.14 | backpocket | i see |
07:52.18 | backpocket | is that YUMable? |

07:52.38 | backpocket | ah -- i'll cehck then |
07:52.55 | mhall | i bet it can only be 'yummy' if you have an outside repo |
07:53.08 | mhall | the main distros are wary to distribute vobsub / decss / libdecss |
07:53.09 | backpocket | yea well i added livna |

07:53.31 | mhall | Q-collective: yeah less control but less shit to deal with |
07:53.33 | Q-collective | dunno k9copy |
07:53.48 | mhall | Q-collective: if you're in a hurry to burn your shit ASAP this compromise makes sense |
07:53.48 | backpocket | k9copy is not yummable. |
07:53.59 | mhall | that's lame as fuck |
07:54.04 | backpocket | i must say the compression it uses is quite good |
07:54.14 | backpocket | also you can easily rip JUST the movie |
07:54.19 | mhall | right |
07:54.22 | backpocket | strip out the menu, extras, etc. |
07:54.27 | mhall | one might argue this is for two reasons |
07:54.35 | mhall | TV of non-HD variety --> bad quality |
07:54.46 | backpocket | and youc ant tell the diff anyway |
07:54.50 | mhall | 2-layer DVDs --> deliberate bloat to complicate copying |
07:55.07 | mhall | 2-layer DVDs --> extra layer of bullshit content about which no sensible human gives two shits |

08:10.58 | backpocket | because lets be honest....... if everyone had a linux client/desktop .. they'd need access restriction locally to allow & not allow things, resource allocations.... etc |
08:11.12 | mhall | backpocket: as for printers, you handle that by allocating printing to queues based on the kind of print job |
08:11.22 | mhall | backpocket: like color job queue and black and white queue |
08:11.34 | mhall | backpocket: then the cups server allocates the jobs to printers |
08:11.43 | mhall | backpocket: and you tell the clients to send all jobs to the cups server |
08:11.57 | Q-collective | hmm |
08:11.59 | backpocket | right, but like allocate printers to groups... commonly-accessed "shares" to groups... |
08:12.01 | mhall | backpocket: but these are all modules, windows wins here because while crappy, it's integrated |
08:12.07 | backpocket | group-based access rights & restirctions, etc. |

08:31.12 | Ardonik | sfx_: why do you wanna run kde as root?! |
08:31.38 | backpocket | sfx_, if you wanna run kde as root - i suggest you try Linspire. |
08:31.41 | Ardonik | Run as a normal user and use sudo for the root stuff |
08:32.02 | Q-collective | hehehe |
08:32.04 | sfx_ | huh.. |
08:32.11 | Q-collective | su - > startkde as root |
08:32.20 | backpocket | sfx_, try Linspire |
08:32.22 | Ardonik | You shouldn't run graphical apps as root. |
08:32.41 | sfx_ | but why ? |
08:32.52 | sfx_ | i always run as root :) |
08:32.54 | Ardonik | Root should be used for running simple commands that have vulnerabilities ironed out of them. |
08:33.14 | Q-collective | sfx_: the main problem with windows security is that you run as admin by default |
08:33.19 | Ardonik | Big complex programs like KDE apps link to alots of libraries and introduce the potential for unexplored vulnerabilities. |

08:42.12 | backpocket | what is teh wheel group? |
08:42.23 | mhall | Ardonik: better yet add your user... mhall ALL=(ALL) ALL |
08:42.32 | Ardonik | Wheel is the conventional name of a group that has unrestricted access when they authenticate with sudo |
08:42.33 | sfx_ | Ardonik: i am using normal user |
08:42.43 | backpocket | ah |
08:42.55 | mhall | backpocket: it comes from BSD |
08:43.07 | mhall | backpocket: in BSD you can't su unless you are in wheel even if you know the pass |
08:43.12 | backpocket | so much comes from bsd... |
08:43.24 | mhall | backpocket: yeah it was a big innovation in the UNIX world |
08:43.30 | Ardonik | backpocket: the BSD convention was good, so some Linux distros (and OSX) have stolen it |
08:43.30 | backpocket | bill's ftp.exe comes from bsd |
08:43.38 | mhall | backpocket: imagine the horror, until BSD none of the unix commands were recursive ! |
08:43.57 | backpocket | well Ardonik the cool thing about BSD is u are allowed to steal it - as long as u give credit in the code |

In the world of pro wrestling, the term "lemming" began in the 1980's, referring to the WWF's large percentage of relatively uninformed, somewhat gullible, and fiercely loyal fans.

14:00.40 | mobtek | find out where that is in the gnome install and then put your theme in there I guess :) |
14:00.53 | |mlask| | :/ |
14:01.06 | |mlask| | i dont understand :( |
14:01.12 | |mlask| | where what is? |
14:01.30 | Fieldy | good quesiton. |
14:01.30 | mobtek | I dunno, perhaps where gnome is installed on your distro |
14:01.39 | mobtek | have a look around :) |
14:02.40 | mobtek | ask over in #gnome for that one |
14:02.49 | |mlask| | ok... nevermind... looks like i have to package my theme. that will be faster :/ |
14:03.01 | mobtek | or find and read the docs for the gtk-qt engine |

14:43.37 | Cerulean | Hi. I just overwrote a file from outside of kate. When the dialog came up warning me about the conflict, I selected "Save As" and saved the file in another directory. |
14:44.11 | Cerulean | However, Kate gave me a message stating it couldn't read as the path didn't exist or somesuch |
14:44.27 | Cerulean | it then cleared out all the text in the editor and cleared the undo buffer |
14:44.40 | Cerulean | so i've essentially lost a rather large script i've been working on for a long period of time |
14:44.51 | Cerulean | does Kate back things up when it does something silly, by any chance? |
14:44.58 | Cerulean | any temporary file that might still be available? |

14:52.24 | susanka | im not shure maybe its a GTK problem? |
14:52.25 | Bambino | my konsole works, however i cant change settingsit is missing a file named kcm_konsole.la |
14:52.57 | Bambino | qupada: and this happened after the upgrade from 3.4 to 3.5 |
14:53.19 | qupada | Bambino: you can't always trust it to get everything right during a major version upgrade |
14:53.44 | qupada | move ~/.kde to somewhere else on your hard drive, then just copy back anything you need after re-running the config wizard |
14:53.53 | Bambino | qupada: Oki so whats the solution? |
14:53.55 | Bambino | oh ok |
14:54.35 | susanka | is kde using other graphic libs ? |

18:01.09 | Sho_ | The_ManU: I'm not saying gdesklet wouldn't work (never tried it), only that KDE has its own widget platform and most people in #kde will likely use that |
18:01.25 | The_ManU | and where do i get it? |
18:02.05 | Sho_ | The_ManU: It's included in KDE 3.5. For older versions of KDE get "SuperKaramba" from your distribution. See the SuperKaramba section on www.kde-look.org for hundreds of widgets (called "themes" in Karamba speak). |
18:02.12 | mhall | zOMG my friend's girlfriend is so clueless she thinks gmail's autocomplete means her gmail got hacked just because there are weird addresses in it; i explained it's cause it snips them from the To: field on incoming joke spams and other shit with a lot of emails on it, but she just won't listen |
18:03.06 | Sho_ | mhall: Don't really see how that's her fault ... I really hate email clients that automatically add mail addresses to their addressbook (I mean you, Thunderbird!) or autocomplete lists |
18:04.00 | mhall | Sho_: seriously, would a hacker sit there emailing her distant friends and relatives? unlikely |
18:04.05 | mhall | Sho_: i didn |
18:04.17 | mhall | Sho_: i didn't call her clueless until she wouldn't listen to reason |
18:04.19 | The_ManU | Sho_: have kde 3.5.1 how to enable it? |

18:40.51 | Bambino | mhall: Konsole works though, just dont work to configure it |
18:41.13 | rhican | Bamino : did you update all your config files? i updated to kde3.5 too recently on gentoo you should really do your etc-update |

18:42.06 | mhall | rhican: yeah but i have 6.9 |
18:42.16 | mhall | rhican: and i still have the problem, also had it back in 6.8 |
18:42.28 | mhall | rhican: what i'm trying to get at is, i suspect it's something weird with stock X |
18:42.38 | mhall | rhican: and maybe installing ATI or NV makes it go away |
18:42.43 | pinotree | aronofsky: ah, no.. it's a general config for the whole kde |
18:42.48 | mhall | rhican: but since you did not install ATI yet i can't confirm |

19:18.02 | Frost^ | hello. I'm trying to make a service menu and for that specific one I need to know how to relate to an actual filename (and not a full path) |
19:18.08 | Frost^ | can anyone help? |
19:18.09 | mhall | The_ManU: no |
19:18.10 | Sho_ | mhall: Well, usually we say "die URL", but the vote is still out on that ;-) |
19:18.14 | The_ManU | Sho_: do you have superkaramba? |
19:18.23 | Sho_ | The_ManU: Yes |
19:18.30 | mhall | Sho_: oh i had no idea one way or the other |
19:18.31 | Ardonik | Frost^: what do you mean by "service menu"? |
19:18.32 | The_ManU | have some questions |
19:18.40 | Frost^ | right-click menu |
19:18.53 | The_ManU | fist are tehre "only" less themes for download? |
19:19.05 | Ardonik | Frost^: And what are you having trouble with? |
19:19.06 | The_ManU | and some information is false |
19:19.09 | The_ManU | i have sda |
19:19.16 | Sho_ | The_ManU: I'm not sure what you mean by "less themes"? |
19:19.18 | The_ManU | äh no sda, have hda |
19:19.37 | Frost^ | if I use %u, I get a full url to the selected file |
19:19.42 | mhall | Sho_: i think maybe it should be der or die, because locator -> Pächter |
19:19.42 | Frost^ | I'd like to get the filename alone |
19:19.53 | mhall | damn it my text encoding is all broken |

19:20.41 | mhall | Sho_: lol |

21:25.21 | Crissi | xterm is faster :/ |
21:26.13 | pinotree | konsole is cooler :P |
21:26.14 | Ardonik | use urxvt if you want a fast terminal with unicode support |
21:26.22 | Crissi | pinotree: yes of course! |
21:26.51 | Crissi | is there a way to specify which terminal internal is used? |
21:26.53 | Ardonik | It's not remotely as polished as konsole, but it gets the job done. |
21:27.17 | Ardonik | Change the start menu links, and edit $TERM in your ~/.profile, I suppose |
21:27.37 | Crissi | i'll look |
21:28.06 | Ardonik | like this: export TERM=urxvt |
21:28.24 | Ardonik | For any app that fires up a terminal by checking $TERM. (I'm not sure if many do.) |
