Dragnslcraltg- you don't need a root password00:11
darlosaltg i think your root pasword is your admin password00:11
jembougebah j'ai pas trop pigé ta question, je vais sur fr pour qu'on en discute00:11
altgoki00:12
Dragnslcrdarlos- no, there is no root password. The password you use for sudo is your normal user password00:12
Ahmuckis there a program in kubuntu/kde that creates a collage from a batch of images similar to what picasa does ?00:12
Dr_willisthere is Picassa for Linux. :)00:13
yknottdigikam?00:13
Dr_willisand ive not seen a similer tool. :(00:13
Dr_willisI wanted to make a random wallpaper change that generated collages on the fly.00:13
eltorodr_willis : you can make a wallpaper slideshow00:14
stdin"feh" can do that, but that's command line only00:14
darlosDragnslcr...yes and is the same to add package00:15
Dr_williseltoro,  right but i wanted to select a dir. and have the program make random collages from pics in that dir. and then use those for the wallpaper00:15
eltorooh00:15
Dr_willisBeen cooler if i could sort of animate the collages. heh heh..00:15
eltorosorry i can'T really help you then00:15
Dr_willischange wallpaper every 2 sec. :) moving the pics about.00:15
Dr_willisTalk about cpu ussage.00:16
ManadI'm trying to play an xvid movie in Kaffeine, and it's very choppy. I know it's not the video because it played fine under Windows. Are there "restricted" codecs I could get which would make it run better?00:18
Dr_willistry vlc perhaps.00:19
Dr_willisor some other players.00:19
newuserLet me run this past someone...........If I have a duel boot sys and windows is on the mbr and linux is on the 2nd partition the laptop is fine with either os..... Now that I have removed the Bill Gates revenge and have only the ubuntu os on the whole hd... I am having issues with the sound and web video,,,  My question is this ,, When the windoz was installed due the drivers for the hardware bootup in the dos mode as windoz boots?00:19
newuser  Therefor loading before getting to grub?  Therefore not having any issues when using linux...00:19
ManadI'll try VLC...it has its own codecs IIRC.00:19
Dr_willisnewuser,  the grub/boot/partitions shouldent be affecting the linux os.00:19
Dr_willisnewuser,  when grub boots linux, theres nothing read from windows.00:19
Dr_willisnewuser,  NOW that being said.. i have seen odd hardware that gets confused if you boot to windows, then 'reboot' to linux.00:20
newuserIm not saying it is read from windows...   Is it read from dos00:20
Dr_willisnewuser,  dos? what does dos have to do with anything? :) you using windows95?00:20
newuserDoes the hardware activate before the drivers for the os activeate00:21
newuserhahahahah    no00:21
Dr_willisGrub is loaded befor any other OS.00:21
newuserok00:21
Dr_willisThe only issue ive ever seen is that windows can set hardware in such a way the Linux drivers cant 'reset' them proplery. and tha twas only with one device i had ages ago. (a sound card)00:21
newuserthen y is it that when I had this sys preloaded with vista and by me loaded with ubuntu worked well but when I removed the vista and reformatted to have only ubuntu I have issues with the sound and web video00:22
Dr_willisIm guessing the issue is unrelated to vista at all.00:23
newuserIt has to be related to something...  I am very confused by this issue00:23
ManadI've had three apps crash on me so far in 2 hours of normal use. Adept, Dolphin, and something else I forgot. Is this normal? And is it possible my previous XFCE install might be interfering?00:24
Dr_willisnewuser,  could bee some updates havent been done on your system yet, or some updates have been done..   or a different kernel version.00:24
Dr_willisManad,  i normally install ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop all on the same box. no problems.00:24
newuserWith duel boot and vista and ubuntu kde all was working well this was two days ago... New toshiba satalite a205-s4707 laptop00:25
Dr_willisnewuser,  put it back the way it was and see if it  then works.. what i am saying that if you power up, select linux from grub. Then Nothing in windows gets read/loaded/used at all.00:25
Dr_willisIn fact you could delete the windows partition, and still have the grub entry for windows. :) linux wont care.00:26
newuserreformatted and now just ubuntu and 145 updates with all the repositories checked and I go online fine but no video when I go to yahoo music it says you must install missing plugins00:26
MinatakuHeya, Dr_Willis00:26
MinatakuWhat's up?00:26
unix_infidelDr_willis: nope, it wouldnt mind at all.00:26
Dr_willisnewuser,  right - you need to install  the various plugins that are not installed by default00:27
newuserI load the flash and the gnash and then the video window is there but it is messed up00:27
jembougehi there00:27
unix_infidelit would just spit out an error when you tried to select the win partition.00:27
Dr_willisnewuser,  install 'kubuntu-restricted-extras' for a start00:27
Dodger73*sigh* anyone manage to get fglrx to run under gutsy00:27
Dodger73?00:27
newuserands I still have no sound00:27
newuserok.... Ill try it00:27
Dr_willisDodger73,  it works for my pathic laptop.00:27
jembougeanyone knows hows to set up the "password manager" so that it doesn't memorize the root password for a few minutes, but instead ask each time required?00:28
Dodger73i've got a x1900xtx PCIe and all i get is a blank screen (monitor goes out of sync)00:28
Dr_willisjembouge,  you dont mean the 'sudo' thing do ya? i wonder if the kde ask for password thing uses the same time-cacheing of the password as sudo.00:28
Hydrogenyes00:29

MinatakuIf not, you need to specify to the kernel explicitly what video mode to use03:07
Nvrnightctrl+alt+f1 didn't turn it on03:07
Minataku!vga03:07
ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about vga - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi03:07
MinatakuHm03:07
MinatakuThen you need to tell the kernel what mode to use03:08

Minataku!bootoptions03:08
ubotuFor a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions03:08
MinatakuTry that one03:08
MinatakuYou want the information on a boot option called "vga"03:08
Nvrnightalright03:08
dmcglonebe careful how you talk to the bot you might get banned for abusing it...lol03:08
MinatakuIt'll be in the form of "vga=" and a hexadecimal number03:08
dmcgloneor reconfigure the xserver03:08
Nvrnightok03:08
MinatakuDon't listen to dmcglone03:09
deuryteXCELL03:09
Nvrnightthanks for the help, I'm completely new to linux so this is a whole new world for me heheh03:09
MinatakuNo offense but you're just plain incorrect, dmcglone03:09
dmcglonewhatever03:09
MinatakuThe kernel is using a mode that his monitor can't handle03:09
dmcglonereally????03:09
dmcgloneduh!03:09
MinatakuX11 has nothing to do with this since the kernel itself is at fault03:09
dmcglonenot exactly, he has his x server settings wrong03:10
MinatakuNvrnight: Just ignore him.03:10
dmcglonebut whatever.03:10
Nvrnightso should I use "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash vga=771"03:10
dmcgloneI could care less, I know what i'm talking about03:10
MinatakuSure, if that's a video mode your monitor can handle03:11
Nvrnightlol I don't know what it can handle03:11
MinatakuI'd remove quiet and splash03:11
MinatakuPick a low one then03:11
andrewlinCan anyone tell me why NONE of my sound is working?03:11
MinatakuI'll give you mine, one sec03:11
Nvrnightalright03:11
Minatakuvga=0x31803:11
MinatakuWhich should be 24bit color at 1024x76803:11
Nvrnightalright, I'll try it once it reboots03:12
MinatakuWhich your monitor should be able to handle03:12
MinatakuUnless it's incredibly old03:12
MinatakuLike I said, I'd also remove "quiet" and "splash"03:12
Nvrnightlol it might be pretty old, the computer isn't old but I think the monitor is03:12
deuryteEVENING.....    DOES ANYONE KNOW Y I CANT SEEM TO GET PAST THE "INITIALIZING MODEM" STAGE OF MY ZOOM SERIAL MODEM??  [sorry for caps],03:12
deuryteanyway, when i go to configure modem, it queeries and detects modem but then i go to look into the modem command set =  there is none, i even tried to manually set it up.03:12
MinatakuThis way we can see what's going on, and if you see a bunch of text scrolling by, then it IS your X Window System settings03:13
Nvrnightalright03:13
deuryteim using kumuntu freshly downloaded just yesterday03:13
Darkrift411i just ran updater and it updated my nvidia drivers. there was no flicker or restart, so does that mean the new drivers arent in use yet?03:13
dmcglonegood luck Nvrnight.03:13
Minatakudmcglone: You MAY be right, but usually even if X11 feeds the monitor a bogus signal, switching to a VT where the kernel feeds a good one will return the monitor to a normal state03:14
MinatakuThough in the case that X crashes or goofs up the keyboard, that won't be the case03:15
dmcgloneyou went for overkill, he could simply reconfigure his x server03:15
Nvrnightit's loading now, I'll let you know how it goes03:15
Minatakuk03:15
dmcglonebeen there many times03:16
Darkrift411anyone?03:16
MinatakuDarkrift411: Reboot the system03:17
Nvrnightmonitor is staying on this time, but it doesn't display anything at all, the loading thing isn't even displaying03:17
MinatakuTheoretically you could unload and reload, but rebooting would probably be an easier option if you don't know what you're doing03:17
MinatakuHm03:17

* Darkrift411 is afraid to lol03:18
MinatakuNvrnight: Have you already installed Kubuntu, or are you trying to install?03:19
MinatakuIf you're trying to install, use the !alternate installer03:19
Nvrnighttrying to install Ubuntu03:19
deurytexcell03:19
MinatakuIn that case03:19
Minataku!alternate03:19
ubotuThe Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal03:19
andrewlinCan someone help me with my sound? It's not working.03:19
Minatakuandrewlin: Check the mixer settings.03:19
dmcglonewell looks like reconfiguring the x server wasn't the answer03:20
MinatakuEnsure that "Main" and "PCM" aren't muted03:20
XceIIya03:20
Minatakudmcglone: Told you it was the kernel03:20
Minatakulol03:20
MinatakuI compile my own kernels and have fought with video issues03:20
NvrnightI downloaded "Ubuntu 7.10", the desktop edition03:20
dmcgloneit wasn't that either, he hasn't even installed.03:20
XceIIkernel who.03:20
dmcglonelol03:20
MinatakuWell, the issue is that the kernel on the normal install CD is trying to do something that his video system doesn't like03:21
deurytei just spent alot of time. got much info. will be trying to figure this out, youd think the developers would have been just a little more3 easier03:21

XceIIso we can private03:21
dmcgloneI think he didn't have enough memory to run the graphical install03:21
dmcgloneor at least had enough but it was really slow03:22
MinatakuSpeculation is useless03:22
MinatakuAssist or be silent03:22
MinatakuNvrnight: Either way, use the alternate installer03:22
MinatakuThat should work for you.03:22
dmcglonewow your on a roll tonight03:22
Minatakudmcglone: Making pointless assumptions about one's computer isn't going to help anyone.03:23

For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)06:10

andrewlinCan anyone help me figure out why NONE of my sound in linux is working?12:43
Gular1Inferno: in general, you do, but only if the program is located in one of your systems path. if it's in some other, non-standard dir, linux won't "find" the executable12:44
Gular1but you could always just launch it with the full path12:44

Kohlrabi<Don_jr333> Would anyone be able to explain to me how to get korean fonts to show properly in a text editor? | I think the problem could be the encoding, or the font you use13:27
Kohlrabinot all fonts have korean characters13:27
Kohlrabimaybe GNU unifont has the characters, though it uses bitmaps :S13:28
KohlrabiDon_jr333: maybe look here, if you are unsure whether your font can display the characters13:29
Kohlrabihttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_fonts#List_of_Unicode_fonts13:30
Kohlrabithough I thought Deva Ju has the needed chars13:30

KohlrabiI think13:37
Kohlrabinot sure, maybe check adept13:37
Don_jr333ok13:37
Kohlrabibut the problem can be twofold13:37
Don_jr333again, I can get the korean text to show up everywerhe but my java IDE13:37
xstWhen I go to Administrator Mode in System Settings > Monitor & Display, the Apply and Reset buttons become disabled and it is therefore not possible to apply my modifications? What to do?13:37
Don_jr333for some reason I can't find an ide that supports euckr encoding yet13:37
Kohlrabieither the editor can't display the encoding (which I highly doubt), or the font can't show the characters13:38
arkohi13:38
KohlrabiDon_jr333: so, that means there is actually no IDE which supports korean characters?13:38
Don_jr333I know there is, I just can't find one yet13:38
