<0> rohan: also nice :)
<1> wow, lunitik
<1> you have really learned the kde configs and kcontrol byheart :P
<2> hey OMG
<2> can somebody answer :S
<2> lol
<0> rohan: I asked Gnome folks to do that, and they said no :(
<1> yea.. its guhnome
<1> :P
<2> default Domain Name is "site" <--- should i change it ??
<0> rohan: kde user for a long time... better part of 4 years
<1> lunitik: if i set left click to kde menu, how do i dismiss the menu ? :PP
<2> damn
<0> rohan: haha... I set it to middle instead of the damn window list thinger thats useless pretty much :$



<1> :-/
<1> i dont like virtual desktops
<1> i have only 1
<0> rohan: well then default middle click is even more useless to you :P
<0> rohan: basically just another way to access ctrl+(shift)+tab
<3> where can I get the yast rpm's so I can reinstall it?
<0> uhh... s/ctrl/alt/
<4> rohan: never had to hide your pr0n screen from anyone real quick?
<1> lunitik: well, in konsole and konqui i've had ctrl-tab and ctrl-shift-tab as next tab and prev. tab respectively
<1> Grommet: ctrl-alt-d always helps
<1> :)
<0> rohan: yeah... alt not ctrl... sry
<4> noway, then you have to start all over again
<4> lol
<5> this is the crap the software updater is feeding me : Transaction failed: Package transaction failed: You do not have the required access level (superuser) for this method
<6> powersaved is complaining no env vars are set
<6> or certain ones are not set
<1> Grommet: lol, pressing it again brings the screen back to exactly the way it was
<6> why would this be
<0> Ancient1_: try as root
<5> its the taskbar applette !
<6> I'd like to fix it so as to use my laptop's Fn acpi keys
<4> oh you said d
<4> well still it's nice to have something that looks like work handy on one screen
<0> rohan: there is a reason geeks love kde, and everyone else likes gnome :P
<1> lol
<1> its the reverse
<5> and now it crashed
<0> rohan: there is NOTHING you can't do with KDE, except have kwin do tabbing... but even then there is a patch I think
<4> I ***umed backspace
<1> g33ks can hack ~/.gtkrc-2.0 to change colors and buttons and texts and underline, lunitik
<4> I just started using kde this year
<0> rohan: meh... some things simply aren't there... I know my way around just fine...
<4> seems nice
<4> no complaints from me
<0> imo, people saying KDE isn't userfriendly should use my desktop
<2> hi lunatik !
<1> lunitik: tell me, is there any way to change button color, window background color, hover color, underline color, in gnome ?
<1> :))
<0> rohan: yes
<6> and could anyone help me figure out how to make sure sonypi automatically load
<1> lunitik: how ? vim ~/.gtkrc-2.0 ?
<6> modprobe.conf seems just to p*** options when modprobe is run
<2> lunatik: how to set enable ip forwarding during suse 10.1 installation ???
<1> mebaran151: i told you already .. man modprobe.conf
<6> not actually load anything
<6> rohan: I man'ed it
<6> it lets me set aliases for modprobe to use it look slike
<0> rohan: sure... or just the themes gtkrc file...
<6> and it lets me set options so that when I call modprobe those options are included, but it doesn't look like it calls anything itself
<1> mebaran151: well, see ..
<6> I already have sonypi alias'ed to a char dev in modprobe.conf, and it still doesn't load
<1> mebaran151: to modprobe.conf add "options sonypi foo bar"
<1> then when u do modprobe sonypi, it will take those options
<6> rohan: that sets options
<6> yeah
<6> but I want it to load on boot
<1> lunitik: ewww... kcontrol is better .. kde <3
<1> mebaran151: well, in debian its /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh .. i dont know how in suse, but look for a rc.local or somesuch
<6> no cleaner way?



<0> rohan: Gnome will never win me over... they choose whats best for the user... rather than letting the user decide
<6> isn't this something I should hack at udev for
<6> udev?
<1> lunitik: exactly ..
<0> Even some Gnome devels want a menu bar (OS X style) but Gnome devels won't do it :/
<1> mebaran151: eh ? udev?
<1> mebaran151: you are editing the init scripts
<0> Except a crappy Applications Places System thing is fine :/
<1> and rc.local is _meant_ for your own modules and all
<4> I don't think Gnome is all that bad
<0> Grommet: it works I guess... it makes you do things their way though
<0> Grommet: thats fine for some
<2> :@
<4> I never felt like I was being made to jump through hoops or anything.
<4> I started having resize problems with gnome all the time
<6> rohan: I thought it would be set in some rule
<4> the text in buttons would be all messed up
<1> mebaran151: no.. just see if there is an rc.local or something for your customization
<4> and the buttons themselves would rearrange themselves beyond usability if you made a window too small
<0> Grommet: Its basic... which is why companies like it, nothing really for folks to play with...
<6> but my big problem is that powersaved is complaining that certain env vars are not being exported
<0> Grommet: of course its also more advanced under the hood... because companies like it
<1> hmm
<1> redhat, novell both like gnome
<1> slackware likes kde :))
<0> rohan: redhat, novell, hp, sun to name a few
<0> IBM too more than likely...
<1> hp loves gnome ?!
<0> rohan: they have some devels etc... and are on the Gnome Foundation board afaik
<6> when I read teh script it checks for SYSCONFDIR, SCRIPT_DIR, BIN_DIR, KDE_BINDIR
<6> but these are never set
<6> why wouldn't powersaved set these as per the manual?
<0> mebaran151: why don't you set them as per the manual?
<0> mebaran151: export ONE_OF_THOSE="some****"
<0> mebaran151: not that hard :/
<1> lunitik: :P
<0> mebaran151: should be set, but aren't...
<0> well... SYSCONFDIR, BIN_DIR, and KDE_BINDIR should... idk about SCRIPT_DIR :/
<0> seems like your script should be setting that?
<5> rohan: can u switch languages with key-combo ? i can change just once , not to and fro
<6> lunitik: but it seems that this is a symptom of a bigger problem
<1> Ancient1_: no idea, i've never needed to change languages :((
<6> they were supposed to be compiled in as it says they were set in ./configure
<5> rohan: are u using english only ?
<1> Ancient1_: yes
<0> mebaran151: set the env variables... and see if it bitches about something else...
<5> hmm k
<0> mebaran151: then guess what?
<0> mebaran151: you fix that too...
<6> ok doing it
<1> hindi support on linux is so ugly that i'd not want to use it .. and lets not even start about gujarati
<0> mebaran151: cool process huh?
<6> ok
<6> I get a segfault now
<6> gah I hate segfaults
<6> because they don't say anything
<0> mebaran151: google is your friend
<6> started with google
<0> mebaran151: they say it terminated, and where
<6> I always go to google before IRC
<6> time to rtfs
<0> mebaran151: what are you even trying to do? you the VMWare dude?
<1> mebaran151: well, each and every distro sets QTDIR, KDEDIR, SYSCONFDIR and env vars like that
<1> lunitik: spike723 is the vmware dude
<6> lunitik: nope
<0> rohan: I knew that
<1> lunitik: then why did you ask mebaran151 :PP
<6> I just installed it on my shiny new VGN
<0> mebaran151: so what are you trying to do?
<0> rohan: oh shush
<0> :PP
<6> I'm trying to get my Fn keys on my laptop to work
<6> these Sony laptops are very nice
