13:20 < mcallan> hey thomas_, is kde working ok for you?
13:21 < thomas_> mey Mike, well, the basics are working, the existential fear of having to live without computer is mostly gone. What remains are many little problems
13:22 < thomas_> I'm still fighting them
13:22 < mcallan> ah, what's the biggest of them?
13:23 < mcallan> or actually, anything i might be able to help with?
13:23 < thomas_> ähm, the biggest left, is installing a softphone, which will ring to my pc-speaker
13:24 < mcallan> i don't have experience with that one...
13:24 < thomas_> I dont think you can help. I'm learning how to install stuff, which is not in packeges. so I have to compile it and ...
13:25 < mcallan> ah, that's more work for sure
13:25 < thomas_> and then this has dependencies, which need to be installed first, but these themselves have dependencies too and so it goes on and at each step new problems occur
13:26 < mcallan> yes, i imagine that's a complicated bit of software.  if u think i can help with anything at all, or just want to talk about it, please ping me.  we can always talk by telephone
13:26 < mcallan> even now if u like
13:27 < thomas_> how about, I try to install skype and then we talk a bit. this should be easy to install, I hope.
13:28 < mcallan> that'll be a supported package, i imagine.  so it should be easy...
13:28 < mcallan> ok, i'm headed for a run.  back in an hour
13:28 < thomas_> ok, I ping you then, ok?
13:28 < mcallan> ok, till soon
13:29 < thomas_> till soon
13:30 < thomas_> or better you ping me, once you are ready
14:28 < mcallan> thomas_: hey guy, i'm back
14:29 < thomas_> ok, my skype seems ready
14:29 < mcallan> i turn mine on...
14:30 < thomas_> ok
