00:22.43squash_how do i create a shortcut, so it will execute a command in konsole
00:22.52squash_e.g. like if i wanna start mplayer in konsole
00:22.57squash_desktop icon to execute mplayer
00:23.03squash_in kde with konsole
00:23.03squash_?
00:23.48grepperwhy would you start it in konsole ?
00:24.07squash_because mplayer...
00:24.15squash_i wanna use mplayer from command line with no gui
00:24.20squash_as the gui is all... yeah
00:24.38CommodoreAttackWhat is the current version of KDE?  3.2?
00:25.30greppersquash_: then just start konsole and start typing :)
00:26.12squash_i'm lazy
00:26.40squash_as i don't wanna type that everytime
00:27.55grepperwell, presumably you will need to type the name of the file
00:29.51grepperjust starting konsole with "mplayer" will flash konsole on the screen and it will disappear
00:30.14squash_yeah
00:30.23CommodoreAttackDoes anyone know if there is a yum enabled reposotory for KDE rpms?
00:30.23squash_exactly... :-\
00:30.27grepperif you know the name of the file, then you don't need konsole, just mplayer /path/to/file
00:31.04squash_what if i wanna play from a URL ?
00:31.13squash_mplayer http://............ ?
00:34.16grepperwhatever working in a terminal should work in a "desktop file"
00:34.41squash_hmmm not in this case
00:35.31greppergive me a url
00:35.58squash_i don't have one
00:36.03squash_:p
00:36.20squash_i'll try installing another console
00:36.22squash_like xterm
00:36.40squash_i think
00:37.07grepperyou are a squash player ?
00:37.41squash_.
00:37.42squash_mplayer
00:38.17grepperoh
00:38.23squash_what is aterm, eterm or xterm ?
00:38.38grepperlike konsole, but no tabs
00:38.49grepperlighter on resources
00:38.56squash_yeah
00:39.01squash_light resources
00:39.06squash_no tabs etc
00:39.37grepperI see
00:39.44squash_i'll try aterm
00:40.03grepperrxvt is very light
00:40.58squash_i tried with aterm still the same
00:41.48squash_looks like i'll just have the stuff
00:41.48greppersame what ?
00:41.53squash_problems
00:42.00grepperyes, what ?
00:42.05squash_opens and closes
00:42.16grepperthat's the expected behavior !
00:42.30grepperyou haven't given it anything to do
00:42.43grepperif you type "mplayer" in  a term it does noting
00:42.46greppernothing
00:42.49squash_aterm -e mplayer

00:43.01grepperthat is expected
00:43.08squash_yeah
00:43.43grepperthis whole thing strikes me as a waste of your time   As you don't really know what you want to do :)

01:34.40chendoanyone know what dcop command to seet focus to a window?
01:34.55syscrash2khackeron, that hides it, but i want to disable it for good
01:35.10syscrash2khackeron, so that it doesnt show up when i open another konq window
01:35.23hackeronsyscrash2k: I've done it, I think its in settings -> configure profiles
01:36.04syscrash2khackeron, it isnt in there, it must be somewhere else :P
01:36.37hackeronsyscrash2k: yeah, cant remember exactly where, but I've disabled it for good somehow :)
01:36.42syscrash2kheh
01:36.58hackeronsyscrash2k: check it out, sexy? ftp://public:asd@81.86.159.146/latest.jpeg
01:37.04syscrash2kalso, how can i make it so that i have to double click to open folders, single click to select?
01:37.31hackeronsyscrash2k: somewhere in kcontrol, not sure why you would want that, but its there :)
01:37.42syscrash2khackeron, not to my taste :P
01:37.44hackeronsyscrash2k: I think its under peripherals -> mouse settings if I'm not wrong
01:37.55CommodoreAttackAnyone know how to make a launcher that is on everyone's Desktop or pannel?
01:37.59hackeronsyscrash2k: give it a while longer, thats what I did, I love it :)
01:38.04syscrash2klol

01:38.52CommodoreAttack/etc/skel?
01:39.08hackeronCommodoreAttack: yes, it populates ~ for each user on creation
01:39.17greppersyscrash2k: not the session of kde, of konq
01:39.21CommodoreAttackI dont have that folder
01:39.26syscrash2ki know, grepper :) i got it, thanks
01:39.28CommodoreAttacknever mind just found it
01:39.32grepperok
01:39.33hackeronCommodoreAttack: sure you do, lol
01:40.06CommodoreAttackI want the launcher to be either in a group on the menu or on the pannel
01:40.46hackeronCommodoreAttack: well, if you want that for all users, edit it for the current user, then put configuration in /etc/skel and remake users
01:42.22CommodoreAttackSo there is no way to force updates to all user's profiles and such
01:42.30CommodoreAttackbesides eraseing them
01:42.52hackeronCommodoreAttack: well, how exactly, you are editing configuration for only 1 user....
01:43.20hackeronCommodoreAttack: if you login as a different user, it reads ~/.kde which is different in his home folder
01:43.47hackeronCommodoreAttack: you could make a joint home folders, or mount -o bind ~/.kde to /home/.*/.kde using a simple vash script as well
01:44.02hackeronbash script I mean
01:44.26chendoanyone know what dcop command to set focus to a window?
01:44.31CommodoreAttackJust wonder why linux hasnt taken on something MS did.  In windows they have 2 profiles that merge when you login.
01:44.51hackeronCommodoreAttack: thats done with /etc/skel in linux
01:44.54CommodoreAttack1 thats is a community profile which has links and such for everyone then one that has your own personal stuff and links
01:44.58*** join/#kde Sir-Al (EXiT@S01060080c6efe43d.vw.shawcable.net)
01:45.17hackeronCommodoreAttack: well, does the main profile unset user configuration?
01:45.24CommodoreAttackno
01:45.42hackeronCommodoreAttack: then exactly, if a user doesnt have that panel, it wont suddenly appear unless its the default
01:45.57hackeronCommodoreAttack: since users can configure their panels
01:46.07CommodoreAttackwell in windows if its in the global profile...it appears
01:46.11hackeronCommodoreAttack: so /etc/skel is just like the main profile in windows, just far more control
01:46.55hackeronCommodoreAttack: you can also force to change user settings if you like, again a nice simple script
01:47.37CommodoreAttackIs there any documentation on how to use skel?
01:48.28hackeronCommodoreAttack: not much to explain
01:48.36hackeronCommodoreAttack: you have ~/, you know what that is?
01:48.58CommodoreAttack~ = home/username
01:49.22hackeronCommodoreAttack: yes, when you do useradd someone, his home folder is populated with whats it in /etc/skel
01:49.44hackeronCommodoreAttack: so just put /etc/skel/.kde/path-to-config
01:50.04hackeronCommodoreAttack: and when you recreate users, it will put config there, or...
01:50.52hackeronCommodoreAttack: you can do something like for i in $(users); do cp config-file /home/$i/.kde/path-to-config; done
01:50.52CommodoreAttackI never knew about that.
01:51.12hackeronthat will modify config file in place for all users
01:51.19hackeronCommodoreAttack: linux is easy :)
01:52.47CommodoreAttackSo the menus and such are held in config files?
01:52.57hackeronCommodoreAttack: ofcourse, where else :)
01:53.14hackeronCommodoreAttack: also, you may want to force only 1 setting, so sed might be very useful
01:53.18CommodoreAttackIn windows all menus are stored as a folder heirachy
01:53.19hackeronCommodoreAttack: like:
01:53.33CommodoreAttackyou create them as a dir structure
01:53.42CommodoreAttackmoving links arround and such
01:53.47hackeronCommodoreAttack: sed 's/OPTION=.*/OPTION=myopt/' -i path-to-file
01:54.51CommodoreAttackI updated my open office and the launchers it makes by default nolonger work (cause the paths for distro rpms and the ones from openoffice use different paths
01:55.13hackeronCommodoreAttack: so full thing is something like: for user in $(users); do sed 's/OPTION=.*/OPTION=myopt/' -i /home/$user/.kde/path-to-config; done
01:55.34hackeronCommodoreAttack: also, dont use rpm distros as a rule of thumbs ;)
01:56.06CommodoreAttackI compiled openoffice from their installer
01:56.11CommodoreAttack*source I think it was*
01:56.30hackeronCommodoreAttack: installer isnt source, unless it took about 15 hours to install :)
01:56.45CommodoreAttackWell I have a fairly powerful computer here
01:56.50CommodoreAttackDual Atholon 1500 MP
01:56.55CommodoreAttack512 DDR
01:56.56hackeronok, 8 hours
01:57.12CommodoreAttackit didnt...must have been compiled
01:57.14hackeronopenoffice is huge, a lot to compile
01:57.33CommodoreAttackGoing to update to FC2 when I can get the disks
01:57.38hackerontakes all day on my 2500+, takes nearly a week on 400mhz :)
01:57.44hackeronno, dont
01:57.56CommodoreAttackI cannot update my KDE to the newest version because I always get crap corrupt downloads of the files I need for it
01:57.57hackeronjust install a sane distro, either gentoo or something debian based
01:58.04hackerontry xandros 2 if you want something easy
01:58.17CommodoreAttackThey updated to 3.2 with FC2
01:58.26hackeronI'm on 3.3 on gentoo
01:58.34hackeronand debian is getting 3.2.3 soon
01:58.41hackeronso 3.2.0 is VERY out of date :)

02:02.53thiagoah
02:03.01CommodoreAttackothers use yum as well
02:03.08thiagowell, Red Hat places some of their RPMs in ftp.kde.org
02:03.13thiagocheck it there, there might be instructions
02:03.28thiagohowever, we don't recommend Red Hat's packages. Try kde-redhat.sf.net's
02:03.52CommodoreAttackare these any good?
02:03.54CommodoreAttackhttp://mirrors.isc.org/pub/kde/stable/3.2.2/RedHat/Fedora/SRPMS/

02:04.42CommodoreAttackthats the non-distro specific source code?
02:04.43thiagoKDE's source code
02:04.56thiagoKDE's source code is never distro-specific
02:05.07thiagothe SRPMS, however, are (they are not released by KDE)
02:05.47CommodoreAttackhow can I get wget to envoke on an http address?

02:06.24CommodoreAttackI want to download every file
02:06.51CommodoreAttackor are there some source code files I dont need?
02:07.02thiagowell, what *do* you need?
02:07.22thiagoif you want to get many files, I recommend an FTP mirror.
02:07.30thiagodownload by mask: *.tar.bz2
02:07.42CommodoreAttackbasically the full english distrobution of it
02:08.01CommodoreAttack*applicaitons and such included*
02:08.03thiagoevery .tar.bz2 then. Just don't download the kde-i18n subdir
02:08.19CommodoreAttackwhats kde-i18n dir?
02:08.39CommodoreAttackdo I need any files from there at all?
02:08.59thiagoyou don't need i18n if you want everything in English
02:09.23CommodoreAttackwow, you have an mirror at FSU?
02:09.55thiagoI don't have anything :-)
02:10.02CommodoreAttackno
02:10.05CommodoreAttackI ment KDE in general
02:10.11thiagoI don't know
02:10.17thiagocheck our mirrors page on www.kde.org
02:10.19CommodoreAttackI saw one on the page
02:10.30CommodoreAttackI live only about 50 to 60 miles from there
02:10.41CommodoreAttackthat means I shoudl get a decent download speed
02:10.47thiagophysical distance doesn't really equate to network distance
02:11.22thiagoI get better speeds from a certain server in Valencia, Spain (some 9000 km away) than from a server in Curitiba (500 km)

02:15.25CommodoreAttackI think the compilers and such are SMP capable

02:15.54CommodoreAttackCant I tie it into both processers and get it done faster
02:16.14chendomake -j3
02:16.21chendogeneral rule is number of CPUs + 1
02:16.46chendoi actually use make -j9
02:16.49thiagoCommodoreAttack: both processors would do that
02:16.58thiagoone single processor would take at least 23 hours
02:17.06CommodoreAttackwill probally leave it on over night (when i get a good non-stormy night).

02:18.40thiagodon't add a machine that slow unless you are running icecream and unsermake
02:18.48thiagoinstead of ccache and automake
02:18.48chendomy server's the bottleneck on my distcc network (600mhz)
02:19.05chendoicecream?
02:19.19grepperthiago: how is unsermake working for compiling HEAD atm ?
02:19.41grepperI should use unsermake if using distcc ?
02:19.57thiagogrepper: it can't compile kdeedu. The rest works just fine.
02:20.09greppercool
02:20.11thiagoyes, you should prefer unsermake, since it does a flat compilation
02:20.17thiagoi.e., it doesn't go into subdirs
02:20.29grepperI think puetzk said the same thing a while back
02:20.38thiagothat way, you don't get bottlenecked by a slow machine finishing its compilation while all the others wait
02:20.49grepperright
02:20.58chendoyeah, that's what happens to me
02:21.09chendoso i killed the distcc on my server for the time being
02:21.12grepperit would be nice if linking were distributable

03:05.13Borg^QueenAye it did. But I had to reprogram the computer. I saved the home dir where it was contained
03:06.03ironfroggytry an ls -l -R | grep root to see if root owns any of the files for some reason?
03:06.30Borg^QueenI checked it doesn't seem to
03:07.02ironfroggyhave you changed something with your JVM?
03:07.46Borg^QueenJust reloaded it

03:08.48Borg^QueenThat's ok.
03:09.28Borg^QueenNot 40 minutes after I reprogrammed it, the jerk who says he's "an expert" started deleting "unneeded file".
03:09.36Borg^QueenSo I have to reprogram it.
03:09.52Borg^QueenThe boss has finally agreed not to give him any of the root pws

03:31.03AppleServermy laptop runs that on 72mb
03:31.20AppleServermy guess is its from emerging stuff, but i want to know how to purge it :(
03:31.43ironfroggyAppleServer: do lots of graphics work and im in the process of combining all my stock, which totals over 550,000 total images.
