| ped | kingzar: 50? in official repository? I think the current "correct" one is simple "firefox"? I will check what I have got. | 00:18 |
|---|
| genii | Kingzar: Just use package manager to install "firefox" | 00:18 |
|---|
| genii | ped: Well there are plugins in there, they can be confusing to sort through | 00:18 |
|---|
| onishidato | Kingzaf: fire fox is uptodate, use adet to install it | 00:19 |
|---|
| onishidato | adept | 00:19 |

|---|
| ped | Kingzar: pure "firefox" is enough (plus it's dependencies, but Adept does mark them automatically for you) | 00:22 |
|---|
| Kingzar | got it | 00:22 |
|---|
| onishidato | hey ho | 00:23 |

| downandout | hello all | 00:25 |
|---|
| ped | are problems with connecting from kubuntu 7.10 on internet common? I installed it on one laptop, and whether I try wire or WiFi, I can't connect to my PC with kubu 6.10 sharing inet connection. (when I boot WXP, both WiFi and wire works just as expected) ... when I tried things like sudo dhcpclient eth0, I don't see any RX packet on the PC side on that one eth0 ... any ideas or what I should try next? | 00:25 |
|---|
| downandout | can someone tell me the name of the config file where kontact defines the spamfilter software it can use? Kontact isn't detecting spamassassin and i remember last time I had to change the path in that config to detect it | 00:26 |
|---|
| onishidato | can someone show me some mp3 player you usually use? i'm gonna hate Linux now.... grrrr | 00:27 |
|---|
| downandout | nevermind its kmail.antispamrc | 00:27 |
|---|
| downandout | good old help files :) | 00:27 |
|---|
| MidMark | ped: depends, do you connect to a router or to what? | 00:31 |
|---|
| BluesKaj | onishidato, do any other players work ? | 00:31 |
|---|
| onishidato | i use mplayer and it works | 00:31 |
|---|
| downandout | just a little suggestions for kubuntu change kmail.antispamrc "PipeCmdDetect=spamassassin -L" to "PipeCmdDetect=spamassassin -V" | 00:31 |
|---|
| downandout | It will fix the detection of the antispam in kontact | 00:31 |
|---|
| ped | onishidato: I use amarok, works for me, but I used automatix or some ugly script like that back than when I was installing this 6.10 ... I'm trying to migrate to 7.10 lately, but lot of work with it and I'm too busy to finish it anytime soon. | 00:32 |

| BluesKaj | ok onishidato , then reinstall amarok with adept | 00:32 |

|---|
| onishidato | ok | 00:35 |

| onishidato | let me try | 00:35 |
|---|
| BluesKaj | then relogin | 00:35 |
|---|
| ped | MidMark: notebook doing problems: asus S96Fm (rebranded as HAL3000, local brand probably) ... ethernet + WiFi ... in WinXP both works, the wire automagically, the WiFi after entering my password for WE P.... I booted up 7.10 liveCD, installed on disk, rebooted ... tried to connect. All I get is after several seconds the avahi-like IP. (both eth0 and wifi eth1 interfaces, whichever I try) ... | 00:36 |
|---|
| ped | MidMark: on the PC side when I check ifconfig eth0, there's no RX packets arriving at all from notebook. (when I try to run sudo dhcpclient on notebook .. it's writing it's sending dhcp requests several times.. .but no RX packet at all on PC side) | 00:37 |
|---|
| onishidato | i'm trying to install it again | 00:38 |
|---|
| Kingzar | is there anything about external harddisk formated under windows? | 00:38 |
|---|
| ped | MidMark: looks to me like either something's horribly broken in my 7.10 installation (but it's clean install from CD), or both WiFi and ethernet card drivers are bad on the CD and need recompile to work correctly. | 00:39 |
|---|
| MidMark | ped: ok wait a minute pls | 00:39 |
|---|
| ped | MidMark: should it work without anything special? I mean connecting the wire to ethernet, with DHCP server on second side? There's no magic "allow internet" button in 7.10, right? | 00:39 |
|---|
| MidMark | no | 00:40 |
|---|
| MidMark | tryied to ping www.google.it? | 00:40 |
|---|
| MidMark | or ping other machine? | 00:40 |
|---|
| ped | maybe the HW is badly detected... :/ ... pity I don't have any papers from that bug, I will probably check WXP what devices are there. | 00:40 |
|---|
| ped | MidMark: it's dead.. no gate, no DNS ... when I let the Knetworkmanager to connect, it ends with avahi-like self DNS config. ... didn't try ping on my PC eth0 IP directly though. | 00:41 |

| ped | onishidato: UTF-16 is used mostly in MS windows only, and as it is both more difficult to handle for old ASCII apps (UTF-8 works most of the time with legacy applications too), and yet it does not cover all characters (just like UTF-8), I don't think it has any serious future.

| ped | junkie: doesn't sound good by the way... :) | 01:41 |
|---|
| DaSkreech | Boot up a OSX Live DVD! :) | 01:43 |
|---|
| bazhang | haha | 01:43 |
|---|
| ped | I think booting up linux and checking up partitions there is probably better idea | 01:43 |
|---|
| junkie | I'm in linux now | 01:43 |
|---|
| junkie | I've checked everything | 01:44 |
|---|
| junkie | The only weird thing I noticed | 01:44 |
|---|
| ped | sudo fdisk -l | 01:44 |
|---|
| s1icknick | any way i can clean this up ?? http://pastebin.com/d4df0d676 | 01:44 |
|---|
| junkie | was that under fdisk, the partition comes up as "Linux LVM" for System | 01:44 |
|---|
| ped | junkie: if you see the OSX partition there, there's still some hope | 01:44 |
|---|
| junkie | Which doesn't seem right | 01:44 |
|---|
| junkie | It's there, alright | 01:44 |
|---|
| ped | junkie: that's good.. if it would be missing there, it would be definitely gone. So the problem is probably with "refit" (I don't know that piece of SW at all, sorry) | 01:45 |
|---|
| ped | junkie: mind you, maybe it's good time to mount that OSX partition in linux (probably as read-only for safety), and copy any important data on some USB or CD/DVD ;) | 01:46 |
|---|
| junkie | refit is a boot loader for efi systems | 01:47 |
|---|
| DaSkreech | Ah right | 01:47 |
|---|
| DaSkreech | efi has DRM in it as I recall? | 01:47 |
|---|
| ped | junkie: no idea what you are talking about. (haven't seen Mac for years) Not my cup of tea. | 01:48 |
|---|
| junkie | DaSkreech: no idea, but i know that apple doesn't allow any access to bios settings, so probably | 01:49 |
|---|
| DaSkreech | That part of the reason you can't emulate a mac? | 01:49 |
|---|
| junkie | i don't know, to be honest | 01:50 |
|---|
| DaSkreech | !ot | oy DaSkreech take it elsewhere! | 01:50 |

| DaSkreech | Right of course | 01:51 |
|---|
| bazhang | junkie: mac has a bunch of forums; macfixit, insanelygreatmac, etc; they will have an answer | 01:51 |
|---|
| junkie | i hate forums :| hopefully one of them has an irc channel | 01:52 |

| ped | night everyone | 01:54 |
|---|
| DaSkreech | !night | 01:54 |
|---|
| ubotu | It's the middle of the night in the US and Europe, and surrounds. This means that a lot of people are likely asleep, therefore there are less potential people who can answer your question. Please be patient, and consider asking at a time when more people will be awake. This is particularly true in the quieter channels. | 01:54 |

|---|
| DaSkreech | Yeah seveas did a nice job | 01:55 |
|---|
| ped | DaSkreech: just the timing is sort of skewed.. usually when the night is in US, it's not in Asia, etc... but it looks like nobody's going to fix it | 01:56 |

| draik | Hello all | 02:45 |
|---|
| draik | How do I keep the router IP and my IP address in Network Manager? | 02:46 |
|---|
| fulat2k | draik: use static ip. | 02:46 |
|---|
| draik | Everytime I boot, I have to enter the router IP along with the configuration of my IP | 02:46 |
|---|
| draik | fulat2k: I do, but it keeps "forgetting" my router IP | 02:46 |
|---|
| draik | I don't have 'net access when I login | 02:46 |
|---|
| mjus | sfears some idea? | 02:47 |
|---|
| sfears | ohh.. my bad.. let me look | 02:47 |
|---|
| sfears | i'm wondering why you have so many usb devices listed in your /media folder | 02:48 |
|---|
| mjus | i dont know | 02:48 |
|---|
| fulat2k | draik: uhh... where do u set ur router IP? | 02:48 |
|---|
| sfears | open konqueror.. naviage to /media.. right click on those usb devices & see if there's an unmount or eject option | 02:49 |
|---|
| sfears | if there is unmount all of them | 02:49 |
|---|
| sfears | only the usb devices | 02:49 |
|---|
| mjus | ok | 02:49 |
|---|
| mjus | no nithing | 02:50 |
|---|
| mjus | all are directories | 02:50 |
|---|
| sfears | are any of them your usb drive | 02:50 |
|---|
| mjus | no | 02:50 |
|---|
| refreshrate | ill install firefox, and itll work for a couple reboots, but then i get a bus error, i reinstall firefox and itll work again for a couple reboots. what gives? | 02:50 |
|---|
| sfears | are you 100% sure you don't have any other usb devices plugged in.. printer/modem/camera? | 02:52 |
|---|
| draik | Why am I losing my router's IP address after every boot? | 02:53 |
|---|
| sfears | are you hard wired to it draik? | 02:53 |
|---|
| sfears | or are you using wireless? | 02:53 |
|---|
| draik | sfears: hard wire | 02:53 |
|---|
| sfears | what do you have to do to connect? | 02:53 |
|---|
| draik | sfears: Enter the router IP, disable ethernet device and then enable it again to get an IP | 02:54 |
|---|
| sfears | and you pay extra to your ISP to have a static IP? | 02:55 |
|---|
| sfears | you normally don't need to specify an IP.. it assigns automatically | 02:55 |
|---|
| sfears | it's called a dynamic IP | 02:55 |
|---|
| draik | sfears: It's not static. | 02:55 |
|---|
| sfears | alright.. then you can proally skip the specify IP part | 02:55 |
|---|
| sfears | you just need to tell your computer to optain automatically.. and let it know to connect.. should be able to set any of that in knetwork manager? | 02:56 |
|---|
| draik | sfears: Ok, but how do I make it stop forgetting my router IP? | 02:56 |
|---|
| sfears | do you have knetwork manager install | 02:56 |
|---|
| draik | Yes | 02:56 |
|---|
| sfears | it doesn't matter if it forgets.. you just need to tell it to grab one when you boot up | 02:56 |
|---|
| sfears | it may always be different.. so if it forgets it's ok.. it will just obtain a new one | 02:57 |
|---|
| draik | How do I make it obtain an IP when I boot? | 02:57 |
|---|
| draik | That's the issue | 02:57 |
|---|
| sfears | i'm looking | 02:57 |
|---|
| sfears | right click on your knetwork manager icon & manual config | 02:58 |
|---|
| draik | Ok | 02:58 |
|---|
| sfears | in the network interfaces tab highlight your connection eth0 or wlan2 or whatever it happens to be.. & configure interface | 02:59 |
|---|
| draik | Ok | 02:59 |
|---|
| sfears | set tcp/ip to auto make sure dhcp is selected in the drop down & make sure activate when computer starts is checked | 02:59 |
|---|
| === Airforce55555 is now known as Airforce5555 |
| draik | 10-4 | 03:00 |
|---|
| sfears | try that and see what happens.. should work just like that | 03:01 |
|---|
| sfears | might as well power cycle your modem & router while you reboot | 03:01 |

|---|
| sfears | tomas_.. ctrl+alt+f1 to terminal and type "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" that will ask you a couple of questions about your video, mouse & keyboard hardware.. answer the best you can.. when it asks about the video driver pick vesa and when it gets to resolution settings pick 800x600 or 1024x768.. it may be a video driver conflit.. those settings are very basic | 03:07 |
|---|

| tomas_ | thanks sfears. I'll try that. | 03:09 |
|---|
| sfears | no prob | 03:09 |
|---|
| jalbert | hey everybody | 03:12 |
|---|
| jalbert | I'm psyched | 03:12 |
|---|
| sfears | hello jalbert | 03:12 |
|---|
| sfears | psyched about what? | 03:12 |
|---|
| jalbert | I just made a Skype call on my Kubuntu laptop | 03:12 |
|---|
| sfears | nice.. worked well? | 03:12 |
|---|
| jalbert | yeah | 03:12 |
|---|
| jalbert | worked great | 03:12 |
|---|
| jalbert | better than it ever did on Windows | 03:12 |
|---|
| sfears | i've been thinking about getting some kind of voip account.. haven't quite made up my mind yet | 03:13 |
|---|
| sfears | what was better about it? | 03:13 |
|---|
| jalbert | the person on the other end said I sounded good | 03:13 |
|---|
| sfears | sound quality? | 03:13 |
|---|
| jalbert | yeah | 03:13 |
|---|
| sfears | yeah.. cool | 03:13 |
|---|
| jalbert | no breaking up, no lag | 03:13 |
|---|
| jalbert | no weird modulation distortion | 03:13 |
|---|
| sfears | that's surprising.. shouldn't make must of a difference.. might have a diffferent priority set on linux | 03:13 |
|---|
| jalbert | I wonder if they've upgraded their vocoder software or something | 03:14 |
|---|
| sfears | you can do the same thing on windows.. ctrl+alt+delete.. and from the processes tab right click on the skype process & set to highest priority.. might clear up your windows issue | 03:14 |
|---|
| BluesKaj | prolly written on and using linux servers | 03:14 |
|---|
| jalbert | well I think the AV software I was running probably had something to do with it | 03:14 |
|---|
| jalbert | this is a 2.8 GHz P4 laptop | 03:15 |
|---|
| sfears | could be a million things.. glad to hear it's working good though | 03:15 |
|---|
| jalbert | hey is there an easy way to delete an erroneous mount-point? | 03:15 |
|---|
| sfears | edit your /etc/fstab file | 03:16 |
|---|
| jalbert | did that already | 03:16 |
|---|
| jalbert | I guess I'm going to have to look it over again | 03:16 |
|---|
| jalbert | must have missed something | 03:16 |
|---|
| sfears | depends what you mean by mount point.. an actual mount point is a partition | 03:16 |
|---|
| jalbert | well, I have an alias in a directory that points to the wrong place | 03:17 |
|---|
| sfears | the only way to delete a partition is to edit your partition tables.. if by mount point you mean a hard drive that shows up on your desktop.. then it's proally something you misssed in your fstab file | 03:17 |
|---|
| jalbert | it's actually the alias I have to get rid of | 03:17 |
|---|
| sfears | that might be a little different | 03:18 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | The mount location is usually just a directory, isn't it? | 03:18 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | i.e. /media/whatever | 03:18 |
|---|
| sfears | yeah.. but some directories are actually physical partitions | 03:18 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | So you should be able to just rmdir /media/whatever | 03:18 |
|---|
| sfears | like your /home folder.. is a physical location on your hard drive | 03:19 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | (after you've unmounted the partition, of course) | 03:19 |
|---|
| sfears | usually | 03:19 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | Sort of | 03:19 |
|---|
| sfears | correct | 03:19 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | It's actually the physical partition that's mounted to the location /home | 03:19 |
|---|
| sfears | in the /home case it is | 03:19 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | You could unmount it, delete /home, and mount the partition again at /house if you really wanted to | 03:20 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | Stuff that looks for /home would break, of course, but that's a different issue | 03:20 |
|---|
| sfears | not sure on that one.. i think it's defined in the partition table.. so you might not be able to change the name.. i think that's basic how linux works kinda stuff.. has to have a /home folder to function | 03:20 |
|---|
| lovedeatm | im using gaim..is the anyway to have it sense a message that has been sent and have it react tot hat message. so for instance if someone said hey that woudl tell gaim to shutdown? | 03:21 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | Well, /home is a bad example because so much system stuff depends on it | 03:21 |
|---|
| sfears | post your fstab file to pastebin if you want me to take a look at it.. i'll see if i see something in there | 03:21 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | As far as I know, the mount location isn't stored in the partition at all | 03:21 |
|---|
| sfears | as far as your alisa no it's not | 03:21 |
|---|
| sfears | alias* | 03:22 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | It's fstab and friends that define what directory the partition is mounted in | 03:22 |
|---|
| sfears | !pastebin | 03:22 |
|---|
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 03:22 |
|---|
| sfears | fstab makes links from partitions to folders.. so you could load /home to /house.. but /home would still be there too | 03:24 |
|---|
| lovedeatm | im using gaim..is the anyway to have it sense a message that has been sent and have it react to that message. so for instance if someone said hey that woudl tell gaim to shutdown? | 03:30 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | There may be some plugin that can execute commands based on incoming text | 03:31 |
|---|
| Dragnslcr | Might want to try #pidgin or asking on their message board or mailing list | 03:31 |

| Dr_willis_ | sounds like a bug in ms's virtual pc then to me. File a Bug report. :) | 05:27 |

| Dr_willis_ | Im guessing they are using the term Long mode for 64bit addressing - Heck they could be refering to somthing totally unlreated, ms is good about taht | 05:28 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | wel doesnt give you the option buddy | 05:28 |
|---|
| Dr_willis_ | You may want to check out Vmware or Virtual box then. Im not even sure they have 64bit versions either. | 05:29 |

|---|
| milestone | Tm_T: how stable is kde4? | 07:34 |
|---|
| nareshov | milestone: it's rc2 right now and it most apps don't start on my amd64 installation | 07:34 |
|---|
| milestone | right now i have installed kde4-rc1 and set re-set the kde home directory | 07:34 |
|---|
| Tm_T | milestone: depends, in my use it doesn't crash, is that stable? I don't know | 07:34 |
|---|
| milestone | well it looks great | 07:35 |
|---|
| Tm_T | but I'm not "end-user" so... | 07:35 |
|---|
| acee12345 | sigma_kubuntu: qparted doesnt activate through console | 07:35 |
|---|
| milestone | i am a gnome user and anxious to really use it | 07:35 |
|---|
| nareshov | sudo qparted | 07:35 |
|---|
| nareshov | milestone: me too :P | 07:35 |
|---|
| milestone | because i really think that you can be more productive with kde but IMHO gnome still "looks" nicer | 07:35 |
|---|
| acee12345 | sigma_kubuntu: an all root([hd],[part]) i try get a "unrecognised command responce | 07:35 |

|---|
| nareshov | true | 07:37 |
|---|
| acee12345 | nareshov: type "83" where? | 07:38 |

|---|
| apparle | waltercool_Eee: what?? | 07:40 |
|---|
| nareshov | acee12345: not unless you add an entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 07:41 |
|---|
| acee12345 | nareshov: how do i do that | 07:41 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | apparle: You wont need an anti virus for linux | 07:41 |
|---|
| nareshov | acee12345: do that fdisk -l thing again and look for the partition number corresponding to your windows installation | 07:41 |

|---|
| acee12345 | nareshov: dev/sda1 so "root (hd0,1)"? | 07:42 |

|---|
| acee12345 | ok | 07:42 |

|---|
| waltercool_Eee | apparle: some idea? | 07:42 |
|---|
| nareshov | acee12345: you need an entry like: | 07:43 |
|---|
| nareshov | in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 07:43 |
|---|
| nareshov | title Windows something | 07:43 |

|---|
| ardchoille | atwo: If you have a regular pc, get the kubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso | 08:28 |
|---|
| ardchoille | atwo: and get the MD5SUMS file and checksum the iso before burning | 08:29 |

|---|
| ardchoille | atwo: Grab the MD5SUMS and check the iso's md5sum against the MD5SUMS list before burning, will save you from making a coaster in case the download was corrupted | 08:30 |

| nuxi | i tryed installing the Pcap.pm file manualy in the perl lib dir.. but that dident work.. i always get an error about Net:Pcap not found in @INC | 08:41 |
|---|
| nuxi | so anyone got an idea how i can get it installed ? | 08:42 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ok | 08:43 |
|---|
| atwo1 | just burning 7.10 now | 08:43 |
|---|
| Locksm | Question: so im dling kubuntu just for testing purpuses, and ive noticed that there is a livecd and a livedvd, would i be better off chosing the livedvd for the correct view on kubuntu ? | 08:43 |
|---|
| elisiano | nuxi: how about "apt-get install libnet-pcap-perl" ? | 08:43 |
|---|
| atwo1 | good Q | 08:43 |
|---|
| nuxi | well.. use the dvd if you want all the pak's .. i think the cd is a mini version and is missing alot to tools and stuff. | 08:44 |
|---|
| atwo1 | :o | 08:44 |
|---|
| Locksm | I mean, clearly there must be some difference since they got both a dvd, and a cd.. | 08:44 |
|---|
| nuxi | elisiano nothing is showing up | 08:44 |
|---|
| ardchoille | nuxi: The dvd is actually only a compilation of the desktop, server and alternate cd's | 08:45 |
|---|
| Locksm | the dvd, is that also a live ? | 08:45 |
|---|
| elisiano | are you on gutsy nuxi ? | 08:46 |
|---|
| nuxi | nop. feisty | 08:46 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Locksm: The dvd boots you into a menu that gives you options to boot into the desktop, server or alternate cd environments | 08:46 |
|---|
| ubuntu | hey can someone help me with a boot problem? | 08:46 |
|---|
| Locksm | Ah | 08:46 |
|---|
| ubuntu | i get grub error 22 | 08:46 |
|---|
| Locksm | but the contenst on the desktop edition is the same as with the cd ? | 08:46 |
|---|
| atwo1 | Locksm: the cd will include all versions | 08:47 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ..which i assume it is one of | 08:47 |
|---|
| atwo1 | sorry the DVD* | 08:47 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Locksm: The desktop cd is a livecd environment with an option to install to hard disk, the alternate and server cd's are text-based installers, not livecd environemnts | 08:47 |
|---|
| nuxi | elisiano. what kind of repo is that file in? main universe or restricted ? | 08:47 |
|---|
| elisiano | i don't have a feisty around to see if the package is in the repositories, but u could still try with cpan | 08:47 |
|---|
| === reydan is now known as Reydan |
| elisiano | it's in main | 08:47 |
|---|
| elisiano | in gutsy | 08:48 |

|---|
| ardchoille | elisiano: You can check that here in the channel: | 08:48 |
|---|
| Locksm | ok, so basicly if i use the livecd for install, i would see the same options as selecting the dvd desktop install ? | 08:48 |

| sub[t]rnl | Daemon--: have you tried installing with safe graphics mode? | 09:12 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | no buddy, is that an option at the beginning? | 09:13 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | off the installation cd, yeah | 09:13 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | yeah thanks | 09:13 |
|---|
| atwo1 | what's a vm | 09:14 |
|---|
| atwo1 | cause mine looks all shitted too | 09:14 |

| atwo1 | oh im installin from disc | 09:14 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | me too | 09:14 |
|---|
| atwo1 | its mong graphical and the screen is half off the monitor | 09:14 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | through a virtual machine | 09:14 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | sub[t]rnl - ive got the inital mentu here but cant see an option for same graphics mode? | 09:14 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | safe graphics mode, hrm, what options do you see | 09:15 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | install in text mode, oem install (for manufacturers), install a command-line system, check cd for defects, rescue a broken system, memory test, boot from first hard disk and some F key options | 09:16 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | ah, are you using the KDE4 RC2 live cd? | 09:17 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | errm im using this one.... kubuntu-7.10-alternate-i386.iso 697.5M 16-Oct-2007 | 09:18 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Daemon--: That is a text-based install cd, no live environment there | 09:19 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | ic, you could go through the installation via text mode | 09:19 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | sub[t]rnl - i do, the inistal install works, its when it reboots and tries to go into kubuntu for the first time. Looks like the login screen | 09:19 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | looks all messed up | 09:20 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | not sure if its something to do with the screen resolutions it asks me before i reboot. Not sure what i should be selecting because its a vm and not the propper size screen | 09:20 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | just the kdm login?, or the entire xwindows is messed up | 09:20 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | well i cant get past the login because i cant see what im doing | 09:21 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | any idea bud? | 09:23 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | hrm | 09:23 |
|---|
| sub[t]rnl | not sure :/ | 09:23 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | do u understand what i mean? want me to take a screen shot? | 09:24 |
|---|
| elisiano | u should analyze xorg.conf and check /var/log/Xorg.o.log | 09:24 |
|---|
| elisiano | probably it's a viewport problem | 09:24 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | how do i get to cli? | 09:24 |
|---|
| elisiano | the screen resolution is bigger than the real "window" | 09:25 |
|---|
| elisiano | Daemon--: CTRL + ALT + F2 | 09:25 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | the window of the vm changes but its still withing the size of my personal desktop resolution | 09:26 |
|---|
| atwo1 | yeah i just finished installnig and my desktop if halfway off the screen | 09:27 |
|---|
| ardchoille | atwo1: Do you have an nvidia or ati video card in that box? | 09:27 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - what am i looking for in xorg.conf ? | 09:28 |
|---|
| atwo1 | nvidia | 09:28 |
|---|
| ardchoille | atwo1: Thought so. I had that same problem but it went away after I nstalled the nvidia drivers | 09:28 |

| nareshov | click on the K-menu > System > Konsole | 09:46 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ya | 09:47 |
|---|
| elisiano | don't leave it blank, specify a lower resolution | 09:47 |
|---|
| elisiano | u have a wide screen right? | 09:47 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | what do you recommend? my windows resolution is 1680x1050 x2 (dual monitor) | 09:47 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ? | 09:47 |
|---|
| nareshov | atwo1: do you see a konsole? | 09:48 |
|---|
| atwo1 | nareshov: what now | 09:48 |
|---|
| nareshov | konsole? | 09:48 |
|---|
| atwo1 | im in there | 09:48 |
|---|
| Jay-Oh-En | nareshov: i dont like all of those | 09:48 |
|---|
| nareshov | :O | 09:48 |
|---|
| atwo1 | what now | 09:48 |
|---|
| elisiano | also 1024x768 would be fine | 09:48 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - the ms virtual pc applications window keeps changing to whatever size is needed by the application running | 09:48 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | ok i'll select that | 09:48 |
|---|
| nareshov | type 'sudo nano -w /etc/resolv.conf' | 09:48 |
|---|
| atwo1 | in the ' | 09:49 |
|---|
| atwo1 | or without | 09:49 |
|---|
| nareshov | without ' | 09:49 |
|---|
| elisiano | it's a 4:3 windows but I don't think that's a problem for u | 09:49 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ok | 09:49 |
|---|
| atwo1 | done | 09:49 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - just 1024x768? no other? | 09:49 |
|---|
| atwo1 | now its all weird looking | 09:49 |
|---|
| atwo1 | oh wait im in that file | 09:49 |
|---|
| atwo1 | what do i write | 09:49 |
|---|
| nareshov | atwo1: is there anything in there? | 09:49 |
|---|
| atwo1 | no it's empty | 09:49 |
|---|
| elisiano | yes, no other, at least you know that it must choose only that | 09:49 |
|---|
| nareshov | hmm, type: nameserver ip-of-your-nameserver | 09:49 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - ok its installing the software now | 09:50 |
|---|
| atwo1 | save now? | 09:50 |
|---|
| atwo1 | and try to connect to net? | 09:50 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | fingers crossed :) | 09:50 |
|---|
| nareshov | yeah | 09:50 |
|---|
| atwo1 | how do i save it | 09:50 |
|---|
| nareshov | Ctrl+O | 09:50 |
|---|
| nareshov | and Ctrl+X | 09:50 |
|---|
| elisiano | Daemon--: btw, I don't think a reinstall was necessary but I undestand you :) | 09:50 |
|---|
| atwo1 | um | 09:50 |
|---|
| atwo1 | now how do i make the net connect | 09:50 |
|---|
| atwo1 | im in some KDE control module | 09:51 |
|---|
| atwo1 | for the network | 09:51 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - yea maybe not but only takes 10 mins hehe, its a quick system | 09:51 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - pobably gonna end back up where i was though lol | 09:51 |
|---|
| nareshov | I just started using kubuntu a day ago :P | 09:51 |
|---|
| atwo1 | :/ | 09:51 |
|---|
| nareshov | atwo1: what does /sbin/ifconfig eth0 say on konsole | 09:51 |
|---|
| nareshov | ? | 09:51 |
|---|
| elisiano | Daemon--: and it's wasted running such os lol | 09:51 |
|---|
| elisiano | :D | 09:51 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | you mean kubuntu or windows? | 09:51 |
|---|
| elisiano | windows of course | 09:52 |
|---|
| elisiano | :D | 09:52 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | hey if i can get this working im switching, thats the whole point of this? | 09:52 |
|---|
| atwo1 | a whole heap of shit | 09:52 |
|---|
| nareshov | hehe | 09:52 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ? | 09:52 |
|---|
| nareshov | do you see your ip there? | 09:52 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | just hope it supports my hardware | 09:52 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i see the IP i assigned to the computer yes | 09:52 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | quadcore q6850 cpu | 09:52 |
|---|
| nareshov | atwo1: do you see the default route ip too? | 09:53 |
|---|
| elisiano | Daemon--: running a virtual machine is not the way to test if it supports your hw | 09:53 |
|---|
| nareshov | oh wait | 09:53 |
|---|
| nareshov | not there | 09:53 |
|---|
| nareshov | in "route -n" | 09:53 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i see one that is almost it | 09:53 |
|---|
| elisiano | because, as it implies, it virtualizes hardware | 09:53 |
|---|
| atwo1 | er | 09:53 |
|---|
| atwo1 | what | 09:53 |
|---|
| elisiano | unsell it parallelizes it like xen (which i doubt) | 09:53 |
|---|
| atwo1 | um | 09:53 |
|---|
| elisiano | unLess | 09:53 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - ahh good point, but still rather see if i like it before i make the big move | 09:53 |
|---|
| atwo1 | there's one there but last digit is wrong | 09:53 |
|---|
| nareshov | let me just figure out what kcontrol module handles the network settings >_> | 09:53 |
|---|
| atwo1 | well i went into that thing ont he bottom right | 09:54 |
|---|
| atwo1 | and went into manual | 09:54 |
|---|
| atwo1 | and changed shit on eth0 | 09:54 |
|---|
| nareshov | ok | 09:54 |
|---|
| elisiano | Daemon--: I agree, but still a dual boot would be better... anyway, first things firt, maybe after virtualizing it you'll pass to a dual boot system | 09:54 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | wow, thats possible? | 09:54 |
|---|
| nareshov | atwo1: the "Routes" tab | 09:54 |
|---|
| atwo1 | whats that shortcut to quickly restart? | 09:54 |
|---|
| nareshov | restart the comp? | 09:54 |
|---|
| atwo1 | never mind | 09:55 |
|---|
| nareshov | Ctrl+Alt+Del worked I think | 09:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i put the router IP in the default gateway | 09:55 |
|---|
| nareshov | k | 09:55 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | ok the install is finnished, im ready to reboot, fingers crossed | 09:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | good luck | 09:55 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | ta | 09:55 |
|---|
| roam | The power manager shows an extra CPU with kernel 2.6.24rc5. | 09:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | do i have to manually edit the network interface | 09:56 |
|---|
| atwo1 | or leave on auto | 09:56 |
|---|
| nareshov | :O | 09:56 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | i love the loading screen | 09:56 |
|---|
| nareshov | atwo1: DHCP -> auto | 09:56 |
|---|
| nareshov | static ip -> manual | 09:56 |
|---|
| nareshov | (iirc) | 09:56 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | anyone know how to get kmail to stop dropping back into text mode when editing html | 09:56 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - its switched to some silly widescreen resolution and messed up again | 09:57 |
|---|
| nareshov | Linux_Galore: it should be possible to configure that, just look around in the settings/preferences | 09:57 |
|---|
| elisiano | can u tell your VM not to adjust its screen size? | 09:57 |
|---|
| atwo1 | now how do i make it connect to the net | 09:57 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | looking | 09:57 |
|---|
| atwo1 | anyone tell me what the keyboard shortcut to reset x is | 09:57 |
|---|
| nareshov | Ctrl+Alt+BackSpace | 09:58 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i need to get the net working | 09:58 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | nareshov: Ive looked though everything, nothing | 09:58 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | through* | 09:58 |
|---|
| atwo1 | nareshov: it changes the default gateway to 0.0.0.0 when i leave the network interface on auto | 09:59 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i can't get it to connect argggh | 09:59 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - yeah i have 3 options, allow any screen resolution (this is what was previously set), use standard screen resolutions and use guest operating system screen resolution | 09:59 |
|---|
| nareshov | atwo1: do you use DHCP? | 10:00 |
|---|
| atwo1 | what is it | 10:00 |
|---|
| elisiano | try using standard | 10:00 |
|---|
| nareshov | bah | 10:00 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | ok | 10:00 |
|---|
| elisiano | and select 1024x768 | 10:00 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ? | 10:00 |
|---|
| nareshov | do you know what ip that comp is supposed to have? | 10:00 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - i cant select, just have those 3 options | 10:00 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i know the range and i just pick any 2 last digits | 10:01 |
|---|
| nareshov | okay | 10:01 |
|---|
| elisiano | k try that | 10:01 |
|---|
| nareshov | that means you're manually setting it | 10:01 |
|---|
| nareshov | so don't do auto | 10:01 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | booting | 10:01 |
|---|
| nareshov | do manual and redo the whole thing | 10:01 |
|---|
| nareshov | ip, route, nameservers | 10:01 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | that didnt work | 10:01 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ok i did | 10:02 |
|---|
| atwo1 | now | 10:02 |
|---|
| atwo1 | how do i make it try to connect | 10:02 |
|---|
| nareshov | it should be working | 10:02 |
|---|
| nareshov | if not then reboot | 10:02 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i can't click 'switch to online mode' | 10:02 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - trying to make it use the guest os res now | 10:02 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | nope :( | 10:03 |
|---|
| nareshov | are you in the administrator mode? | 10:03 |
|---|
| atwo1 | LOL don't know | 10:04 |
|---|
| atwo1 | its saving the shit tho | 10:04 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | sigh, kmail must be the dumbest heap of crap Ive ever used, no html editing support | 10:04 |
|---|
| llutz | html-emails are crap | 10:05 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - this is whats happening >> http://www.daveaskew.com/pics/kubuntu.jpg | 10:05 |
|---|
| atwo1 | yes im in aadmin mode | 10:05 |
|---|
| atwo1 | and its not connecting | 10:05 |
|---|
| atwo1 | still | 10:05 |
|---|
| nareshov | reboot | 10:05 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | llutz: only if your a geek, in marketing all emails are in html | 10:05 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i still can't switch to online mode | 10:05 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i did reboot | 10:05 |
|---|
| nareshov | use Evolution | 10:05 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | nareshov: evolution is a heap of crap | 10:06 |
|---|
| nareshov | not anymore | 10:06 |
|---|
| llutz | Linux_Galore: seems you are in the wrong business | 10:06 |
|---|
| nareshov | try the latest one | 10:06 |
|---|
| atwo1 | the light on my router | 10:06 |
|---|
| atwo1 | is lit up | 10:06 |
|---|
| nareshov | it's - awesome, even I was surprised | 10:06 |
|---|
| atwo1 | the router shows the network is connected this piece of shit comp wont connect but | 10:06 |
|---|
| atwo1 | why | 10:06 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | nareshov: so basically KDE after what 8 years has no HTML email client but gnome has 4 I know of | 10:06 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | yeah I can see the enterprise level users really gunning for kde | 10:07 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - it says its switching to 1600x800 | 10:07 |
|---|
| elisiano | which is not good | 10:08 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ? | 10:08 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | thats kubuntu doing that though, not my vm | 10:08 |
|---|
| atwo1 | how do i get the net to connect X< | 10:08 |
|---|
| elisiano | after u put standard resolution on VM, did u try restarting KDM? | 10:08 |
|---|
| elisiano | or even better, kubuntu? | 10:08 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | yes this is what happens from a full system reboot | 10:08 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | i reboot the system to get into kde for the first time after installing kubuntu and thats what comes up | 10:09 |
|---|
| atwo1 | can someone help me config this fresh 7.10 install to connect to the net :< | 10:09 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | i cant do anything | 10:09 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - im guessing it doesnt like my video card? | 10:10 |
|---|
| Voyage__ | any suggestions for a file manager instead of dolphin or konqureor. (may be same like windows file manager) ? | 10:11 |
|---|
| atwo1 | wjhat the FUICk | 10:11 |
|---|
| atwo1 | is it resolv or resolve | 10:11 |
|---|
| nareshov | what? | 10:11 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | Im starting ti understand why KDE hasnt got of the ground in the enterprise space, its so simple, all the enterprise grade apps are GTK based | 10:11 |
|---|
| atwo1 | when i changed that nameserver it didnt even fkn save | 10:11 |

| ubotu | Linux_Galore: #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! | 10:12 |
|---|
| atwo1 | is it resolv.conf or resolve.conf | 10:12 |
|---|
| llutz | resolv.conf | 10:12 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | llutz: I asked a question, still waiting for a sane kde answer | 10:12 |
|---|
| elisiano | Daemon--: it's not the videocard, I think there's something wrong in how the VM host tells the resolution to the VM guest | 10:12 |
|---|
| llutz | Linux_Galore: that's not a kubuntu related thing, ask in #kde | 10:13 |
|---|
| Daemon-- | elisiano - ok so i should try another VM ? | 10:13 |
|---|
| atwo1 | omfg | 10:13 |
|---|
| atwo1 | its fixed | 10:13 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | llutz: #kde channel is locked especially if you ask questions like, are there any enterprise grade email client for kde, they go into melt down and boot you out | 10:14 |
|---|
| atwo1 | WTF | 10:14 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i go to normal res the native res and the screen goes halfway off the monitor | 10:14 |
|---|
| atwo1 | WHYyyyyyy | 10:14 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | atwo1: reset the monitor, the monitor sets itself defined in the original vga screen | 10:14 |
|---|
| llutz | Linux_Galore: so it's not wanted then. sit down and write a client, it's opensource | 10:15 |
|---|
| Assid | hey | 10:15 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | s/in/on. | 10:15 |
|---|
| Assid | that livecd is majorylu messed up | 10:15 |
|---|
| atwo1 | reset it defined in what | 10:15 |
|---|
| atwo1 | every res makes the fonts etc. look like crap | 10:15 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | llutz: aah yes the ultimate stupid FOSS answer, how about I save time and money like every other enterprise grade user and just buy windows | 10:16 |
|---|
| Assid | Linux_Galore ? | 10:16 |
|---|
| Assid | atwo1: lcd? | 10:16 |
|---|
| atwo1 | yes | 10:16 |
|---|
| Assid | enable anti aliasing fonts | 10:16 |
|---|
| atwo1 | how | 10:16 |
|---|
| llutz | Linux_Galore: nobody stops you, but this is off-topic here so go to some other channels | 10:16 |
|---|
| Assid | i think its in manage display or something | 10:16 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | atwo1: its in kcontrol | 10:16 |
|---|
| atwo1 | foudn it | 10:17 |
|---|
| atwo1 | do i force fonts DPI? | 10:17 |
|---|
| atwo1 | to 120 | 10:17 |
|---|
| Assid | err.. enable antialiasing | 10:17 |
|---|
| Assid | and you should be fine | 10:17 |
|---|
| Assid | 96 dpi is generally more than enough | 10:18 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ok | 10:18 |
|---|
| atwo1 | now where do i run that apt-get update cmd from | 10:18 |
|---|
| atwo1 | and wtf is 'kdesu' | 10:18 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | llutz: just pointing out how insane kde is, you have a nice web browser and cd/dvd burner apps even thanks to kde 4 lots of bouncing icon effects, but not one single email client that is the basic app needed for a desktop that does html like every professional email app out there | 10:19 |

| elisiano | Daemon--: that would be a workaround | 10:20 |
|---|
| Assid | Linux_Galore: thunderbird | 10:20 |
|---|
| atwo1 | where do i type the apt-get update | 10:20 |
|---|
| atwo1 | in what | 10:20 |
|---|
| elisiano | u could try vmware just to see if it works | 10:20 |
|---|
| atwo1 | and the default res is completely screwed | 10:20 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | Assid: not a kde app | 10:20 |
|---|
| Assid | Linux_Galore: doesnt matter, it works fine | 10:20 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | Assid: it does Im loading two sets of libraries when I should not have too | 10:21 |
|---|
| Assid | wel then use kmail | 10:21 |
|---|
| Voyage__ | any suggestions for a file manager instead of dolphin or konqureor. (may be same like windows file manager) ? | 10:21 |
|---|
| atwo1 | littlle help plz | 10:21 |

|---|
| ardchoille | Voyage__: No idea, I haven't seen Windows in years | 10:24 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | Voyage__: just change your default file browser to konqueror | 10:24 |
|---|
| Voyage__ | i need a max option giving/functional file manager | 10:24 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Voyage__: That would be konqueror | 10:24 |
|---|
| Voyage__ | Linux_Galore i dont like it either. i cant chang icon size. | 10:24 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i can't get the whole desktop on the screen in default res | 10:25 |
|---|
| Assid | err that live cd for kde4 has a major bug | 10:25 |
|---|
| Assid | enabling desktop effects kills it | 10:25 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | Voyage__: you can change the icon size to anything you want | 10:25 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | in konqueror | 10:25 |
|---|
| Voyage__ | Linux_Galore nop.... the spacing between icons is not changable | 10:26 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i can't get the whole desktop on the screen in default res (144)0x900 | 10:26 |

| Jay-Oh-En | are there any html editors in linux | 10:42 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | Jay-Oh-En: quanta | 10:44 |
|---|
| Jay-Oh-En | Linux_Galore: is that the package name | 10:44 |
|---|
| ardchoille | !info quanta | 10:44 |
|---|
| ubotu | quanta: web development environment for KDE. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 2385 kB, installed size 5744 kB | 10:44 |
|---|
| Assid | quanta just doesnt measure to the likes to dreamweaver if you ask me | 10:45 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Jay-Oh-En: Quanta was recently rated the best html editor in Linux Format magazine | 10:45 |
|---|
| Jay-Oh-En | ardchoille: kool ill try it out | 10:46 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | Jay-Oh-En: just search for that string in adept_manager ie type sudo adept_manager | 10:46 |
|---|
| ardchoille | !kdesudo | Linux_Galore | 10:46 |
|---|
| ubotu | Linux_Galore: In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 10:46 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | ardchoille: who cares | 10:46 |
|---|
| atwo1 | ardchoille: i can't get the whole desktop on the screen in default res (1440x900) - restarting just auto changes res back to '1400x1050' which is incorrect - how can i fix this please? | 10:46 |
|---|

| ardchoille | atwo1: I don't know anything about resolutions. | 10:47 |
|---|
| Linux_Galore | ardchoille: give me a kde email client that supports html content editing then worry about adding a idiot window for sudo | 10:47 |
|---|
| bazhang | Linux_Galore: we care | 10:47 |
|---|
| atwo1 | anyone know about setting resolutions etc. | 10:47 |

|---|
| Assid | yeah so trying to report it in.. who do i crib to ? ;) | 10:53 |
|---|
| emilsedgh | Assid: thats because of misconfigurations in X | 10:53 |
|---|
| Assid | emilsedgh: misconfig ? konqueror ? | 10:53 |
|---|
| Assid | i can understand desktop effects since compiz needs some renderaccel and stuff on | 10:53 |
|---|
| emilsedgh | Assid: konqueror opens here, it was unstable until 15-20 days ago, but now it is stable enough | 10:53 |
|---|
| Assid | but what about konqueror ? | 10:53 |
|---|

| Linux_Galore | Tm_T: aah you mean for having an opinion that doesnt fit yours | 11:00 |

|---|
| Tm_T | anyway, this is not a place to discuss about this | 11:01 |

|---|
| niwa | atwo1: have you tried editng Xorg.conf directly? | 11:25 |
|---|
| pastry | why does my compiz 'cube' only have two sides? :< | 11:27 |
|---|
| coteyr | anyone have experance with videolan and upnp | 11:27 |
|---|
| stdin | pastry: because you only have 2 desktops and it want's 4 | 11:27 |
|---|
| atwo1 | niwa: no how do i do that | 11:27 |
|---|
| coteyr | i recom[iled aginst the non cyberlink sdk but I cen't see anything past the server node in the playlist | 11:27 |
|---|
| matze_ | exit | 11:28 |
|---|
| pastry | stdin, when i have one desktop, it has two sides and there are two desktop selections on the taskbar. when i set it to four, it still has two sides, and there are eight desktop selections in the taskbar | 11:29 |
|---|
| stdin | pastry: it has nothing to do with kde settings, you need to tell compiz to have 4 desktops from the settings manager | 11:29 |
|---|
| atwo1 | how do i manually edit X | 11:30 |
|---|
| atwo1 | Xorg.conf | 11:30 |
|---|
| TheFishy | oh | 11:30 |
|---|
| TheFishy | thats easy | 11:30 |
|---|
| atwo1 | and do i use sudo or kdesu | 11:30 |
|---|
| ardchoille | atwo1: kdesu kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf , but be careful | 11:30 |
|---|
| niwa | atwo1: open /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 11:30 |
|---|

|---|
| atwo1 | i just want to set the resolution how do i do that | 11:31 |
|---|
| ardchoille | atwo1: use kdesu for gui apps and use sudo for cli apps | 11:31 |
|---|
| TheFishy | damn i type slow | 11:31 |
|---|
| atwo1 | i don't know the different lawl | 11:31 |

| elisiano | gui = graphical user interface, cli = command line interface | 11:31 |
|---|
| TheFishy | just type sudo <command> | 11:31 |
|---|
| atwo1 | why is the x.org empty | 11:31 |

| atwo1 | don't know | 11:54 |
|---|
| atwo1 | who's riled up? | 11:54 |

|---|
| atwo1 | i'm stoned and relaxed after a long days work | 11:54 |
|---|
| bazhang | heh | 11:54 |
|---|
| atwo1 | just toying with this | 11:54 |

|---|
| atwo1 | i'm guessing it's a driver issue | 11:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | what do i type where to do what | 11:55 |
|---|
| elisiano | try and see if it's a perms problem | 11:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | im in konsole | 11:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | as root | 11:55 |
|---|
| elisiano | sudo apt-get update | 11:55 |
|---|
| elisiano | as root | 11:55 |
|---|
| elisiano | ok w/o sudo then | 11:55 |
|---|
| bazhang | atwo1: no one has an answer for you right now, so it might be wise to check out the forums for an answer | 11:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | it does this | 11:55 |
|---|
| niwa | elisiano: you should begin by installing nvidia proprietary drivers | 11:55 |
|---|
| bazhang | oo as root | 11:55 |
|---|
| atwo1 | let me paste what it says | 11:55 |
|---|
| niwa | didn't notice that you hadn't unitl now | 11:55 |
|---|
| niwa | sorry atwo1 | 11:55 |
|---|
| niwa | *meant | 11:56 |
|---|
| elisiano | niwa: I have them installed correctly, maybe atwo1 should as well | 11:56 |
|---|
| elisiano | :) | 11:56 |
|---|
| niwa | yes, lol :)̈́ | 11:56 |
|---|
| bazhang | !root | 11:56 |
|---|
| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 11:56 |
|---|
| atwo1 | when i type | 11:56 |
|---|
| atwo1 | apt-get update | 11:56 |
