ardchoilleEvil_: file systems get unmounted during shutdown anyway00:02
=== genii_ is now known as genii
sfearsit's a good idea to unmount drives while your not using them though00:02
sfearsmabey not a good idea to unmount.. but not a bad idea00:02
sfearsif it loses power for some reason in the middle of doing something could corrupt some files.. should really worry about it though00:03
sfearsshouldn't*00:03
Jyzygzel-why won't the sounds work in any of the KDE games00:03
sfearsshouldn't worry about it00:03

sfearscan you install kubuntu from the kubuntu live cd?? is that your question? if so the answer is yes00:08
Jyzygzel-why can't i hear any sounds??00:09
NDPTAL85Yeah thats my question but this isn't the regular Kubuntu live cd. Its the one with KDE 4 on it00:09
NDPTAL85I loaded the CD fully and didn't see an option to install00:09
sfearsthere should be an install icon on the desktop00:09
NDPTAL85There wasn't00:10

killermachthe adept updater fails to install Gutsy to my Fiesty machine, some core dump regarding debconf,00:12
martijn81NDPTAL85: currenty: yes00:13
killermachlast update I did from Edgy to Fiesty someone gave me a command line to upgrade which worked..can someone help me w/ this? thanks00:13
BluesKajEvil_, gotta be in windows to DL XP-SP200:13
ardchoillekillermach: If you do it from command line, you'll end up missing things which are new t Gutsy but weren't in Feisty00:14
Evil_No way to get it to the NTFS partition from livecd? :(00:14
BluesKajEvil_ never heard of such a thing ...MS doesn't take kindly to browsers or DLmanagers on linux00:15
Jyzygzel-why apt-get install iceweasel not work?00:15
killermachardchoille: ok.. I have 7.10 CDROM, can do a full install, but I need some pointers on migrating my current settings to the new install..any tips?00:15
Jyzygzel-i need a browser00:15
Evil_lol, k, thanks for all the help guys :)00:15
BluesKajJyzygzel-, use konqueror00:16
martijn81Jyzygzel-: there is firefox00:16
Evil_BluesKaj:  I need ActiveX00:16
Jyzygzel-ic00:16
ardchoillekillermach: What I did was back up $HOME and then copy desired files back into the new system. Seemed to work ok here.00:16
dylan_killermach: make sure you use the same user and group ID (not just name) on your new system for each user, or you'll have a lot of difficulty in transferring things.  create the users in the same order and you should generally have identical UID/GIDs.00:17
BluesKajEvil_ if ya wanna play activeX platform games , do it on a windows installed partition00:17
Kingzarcan you setup Kontact with hotmaiL!?>?00:18
BluesKajKingzar, set hotmail to send your hotmail email to k-mail ...It's easy to do with gmail , but I've never used hotmail00:20
martijn81Kingzar: i believe only if you sign up for a paid service00:20
BluesKajwho would pay for hot mail anyway ?00:21
martijn81there was a tool for it under windows though, libpopper3 or something like that,  can't remember anymore....00:21
killermachardchoille: thanks00:21
Kingzaralright i read some google too you have to pay indeed for pop300:21
ardchoillekillermach: yw00:21
martijn81indeed, there is gmail00:21
killermachdylan_: cool, make the users in the same order.. got it00:21
Kingzarso whats by far the best Clock widget?00:21
Kingzarkclock?00:21
BluesKajnope Kingzar , not true00:21
abdullaBluesKaj, i have hotmail , and what can i do now everybody knows my hotmail if i change services just to recieve my email to evoloution or thunderbird i would lose all my friends00:22
ardchoille!info styleclock | Kingzar00:22

dylan_killermach: ive had nightmarish situations trying to transfer files but also wonderfully simple ones when i followed that rule.  also make _sure_ you dont put them on a non-linux filesystem for backup if you want to preserve the permissions - otherwise everything will be executable, and youre lucky if thats the only issue you have.00:23
Jyzygzel-how do i map my mouse thumb button to do stuff?00:23
abdullais theyr a way to transfer ? BluesKaj ? or maybe tell me if i can get hotmail to my thunderbird app ?00:23
killermachdylan_: a "non-linux system"? people still have those?? :)00:24
abdullaJyzygzel-, you want to make the side buttons for back forward in firefox right?00:24
Jyzygzel-yea00:25
dylan_killermach: some of us play games, you know.  wine and cedega arent up to par for most of em.00:25
Jyzygzel-i have to find them to Alt + Left + Left00:25
Jyzygzel-and Right00:25
PasteL OpenArena rooooooooox00:25
Jyzygzel-i jsut don't know how00:25
abdullaJyzygzel-, i dunno if theyr is an app to do this , but i was wondering myself , i think the only binding place for things like mouse keyboard will be in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , go fo kdesudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf00:25
dylan_killermach: and watch out, cuz external hard drives come formatted fat32, even if theyre WAY too big for the fat32 specification.  they just force format em.  :-P00:25
Jyzygzel-nah it does not work00:26
ardchoillePasteL: And it's in the repos :)00:26
abdullaPasteL, OpenArena is multiplayer?00:26
killermachdylan_: yep just showed my cousin how to setup world of warcraft  on wine.. well actually we googled up an ubuntu forum :)00:26
Jyzygzel-the xorg.conf if complete waste of time00:26
Jyzygzel-u never know what to write there00:26
dylan_killermach: hows the performance, compared to on windows on the same comp?00:26
abdullai know but i guess if you google you will know , i havent googles yet im lazy about this issue since 8 months now00:26
ardchoilleJyzygzel-: There is a nice cinfigurator to help with xorg.conf: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg00:26
abdullaardchoille, OpenArena similar to Quake3 CPMA?00:26
dylan_killermach: ie whats the fps in shattrath?  ;)00:27
killermachdylan_: good advice.. I reformat mine ext3 to avoid infections  from peoples winboxes00:27
ardchoilleabdulla: No idea00:27
Jyzygzel-but it wont configure my mouse buttons00:27
abdullahow many MB? ardchoille00:27
ardchoilleJyzygzel-: Ah, ok.00:27
dylan_killermach: its also good for privacy since windoze doesnt recognize even ext2 ^.^00:27
BluesKajhotmail doesn't do forwarding and pop , then keep your hotmail if you don't want to lose your contacts ...it's not so hard to bookmark your hotmail acct on om your browser toolbar00:27
ardchoilleabdulla: apt-cache policy openarena00:27
hdevalencehow do I tell konqueror to not play music or animations?00:27
ardchoillehdevalence: On websites?00:28
hdevalenceardchoille: Yeah.00:28
killermachdylan_: well it would not be a fair comparison, he went from a celeron 900Mhz 512MB w/ winxp home, to Kubuntu Gutsy on an X2 dual core 4100+ 2.1Ghz w/ 2GB RAM, so it runs better period :)00:28
abdullaardchoille, apt-cache search / policy havent shown me the file zie00:29
ardchoillehdevalence: Sounds lke you may have flash installed00:29
BluesKajflash and java00:29

abdullawho played OpenArena here?00:29
abdullais itmultiplayer?00:29
ardchoilleabdulla: apt-cache show openarena00:29
killermachdylan_: I use knoppix to get files off winbox to external HD then a read only ext2 driver for winbox to xfer files back to winbox from ext hd00:29
hdevalenceit's animated GIFs and an mp3 file00:29
BluesKajI tried it for 10mins one day00:30
dylan_killermach: what RO driver?  got a link?00:30
ardchoillehdevalence: Not sure on gif's and mp3's00:30
abdulladoes it have online play BluesKaj00:30

Kingzari cannot seem to move my systray around.. is there a reason for this?00:49
abdullaso its still not 100 % yet00:49

Kingzarproblem is it doesn appear00:50
abdullaif you tried apple .. you will know what i mean, but if you tried a Gnome hacked panel ( apple customization ) you will not notice00:50

danyis for advanced users?01:08

Kingzarif i go to another desktop01:09

linuxmceWhen adding new SATA drives what type should they be? EXT3?01:10
godzeroI'd use ext3, only because it's stable and well supported.01:11
linuxmceWhat about the mnount point? Just \01:11
godzerolinuxmce: Sorry. I steped in in the middle of your question. What is you user case?01:12
linuxmceI added two sata drives to a LinuxMCE box - just going to use them for storage for audio / video01:12
godzeroI'd mount them in /mount or /mnt01:13
wintermute_any out there have a Toshiba Satellite A215?01:13

PasteLhahahahahahaha01:15
godzero"/mnt/sda1 and /mnt/sda2 for example. If you have other drives that are not PATA - you might want to mount them as /mnt/sata1 and /mnt/sata2. The name is anything that makes sence to you"01:16
linuxmceok01:16
godzerolinuxmce: I use /mount/external_101:17
linuxmceThere internal drives :)01:18
godzero:)01:18
linuxmcewhat about the mount point though:01:18
godzero?01:18
godzeroyou can mount the thing as a subdirectory in any existing directory, even /etc/my_stuff is legal01:19
dor0guys, there is any applet to show me the network connexions in tray bar like in windows?01:20
godzerobrb01:20
linuxmceI guess I just don't understand. Mount Points, Type, Device - I need to put stuff in there and If  I don't  it ask me to add loops01:20
wintermute_mine already does off a fresh install01:20
godzerolinuxmce: First step is to plug it in, and format it. I suggers using "qtparted" to format it. Install it. Power down. Plug in your drives. power up, login. run qtparted. Format your new drives (they should stick out like sore thumbs in the left pane). Write down thier paths (like: /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd) on a piece of paper, and come back.01:29
linuxmceThe drives are plugged in and I know what they are - I just don't know how to start qtparted01:30
godzeroinstall qtparted, alt-f2, kdesu qtparted.01:31
linuxmceI think it is installed already01:31
linuxmceor not01:31
linuxmcehow do I install01:31
godzeropress "ALT-F2", type "kdesu qtparted" in the box. Enter your password.01:32
linuxmcesounds the command not found01:33
linuxmceso must not be installed01:33
jhutchinsUm, we're not trying to run qtparted from the drive we're working on, are we?01:33
linuxmceno01:33

jhutchinslinuxmce: apt-get install qtparted01:33

jhutchinslinuxmce: or better sudo aptitude install qtparted01:34
jhutchinsYou'll need sudo in any case.01:34
godzeroto install: open the konsole, type "apt-get update" press enter. ***password**. Wait.  Type "apt-get install qtparted". press "y" anytime it asks.01:34
jhutchinslinuxmce: So what are you installing it to?01:34

linuxmceOK - got it installed - now do I make it an extended partition?01:39
godzerolinuxmce: what do you want? 1 big space, or several smaller spaces?01:40
linuxmceBig Space - It will hold the DVDS that I rip - it's 500GB01:40
godzeroprimary partition (and I didn't need to know that).01:41

linuxmceok01:41

godzeroext3 it is, then01:42
linuxmceDo I have to format it after I create the partition?01:42
godzeroyes01:42
godzeroa few seconds is all01:43
linuxmceIt is saying that it is a virtual partion01:44
linuxmceah - nevermind -01:44
linuxmcegotta commit first :)01:44
godzeroIt's inside of a primary partion (I think). Id go ahead and erase the thing, and start again. I should only take a minute.01:45
godzerocommit.. yes01:45
jhutchinsWith linux you don't need silly extended partitions.01:46
godzeroSo..... Does anyone know how to kill dolphin?01:46
linuxmceThanks guys - I appreciated - just added another 900GB to my box.01:46

SlynderdaleI'm currently dual booting Windows and Linux. The problem is, I don't have a working CD drive with boot support. I want to reformat my current linux install and install Ubuntu/Gutsy Gibbon instead. How can I do this without a boot/live CD?01:48
maybeway36Slynderdale: try UNetBootin01:48
maybeway36or whatever its called01:49

tekteenlimac: there is a text based install cd02:25
godzerolimac: First, you have to make sure your proc can do 64 bit. But the big question is "why would you want to?". I do because I'm like that. Third party support is better in a 32 bit environment.02:25

ubotuDolphin, or more properly D3lphin, is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror - Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory and inode/system_directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin.03:39

cheguevarajhutchins, konqueror uses dolphin for file management in kde 4 so...03:48
* intelikey hunts up the h remover for jhutchins 03:49
jhutchinscheguevara: Yeah, from what I've heard it sounds like they reached a revision stange and realized that to get to the next step towards release just wasn't worth it.03:49
cheguevarano point of developing kde3 software anymore anyway :P03:49
jhutchinsCould be apocryphal, I don't know, but I heard that it was dead stop on developing it.03:50
jhutchinscheguevara: Yeah, but d3lphin isn't kde3.03:50
cheguevarait is03:50
cheguevarad3lpin is kde303:50
cheguevaradolphin is kde403:50
jhutchinsAh, well it was dolphin I heard it about, not "as corrected by ubotu".03:50
jhutchinsBut, on the same hand, it could be that it's true of d3lphin and not dolphin, somebody got the rumor wrong.03:51

sylvisjhello people, I need some help with nvidia binaries03:55
sylvisjFollowed the instructions as per http://www.kubuntu.org/doc/7.10/hardware/C/video.html#nvidia, but /var/log/Xorg.0.log says that the nvidia driver can't find the kernel module03:55
sylvisjor rather, "failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module!"03:56
jhutchinssylvisj: There's an #nvidia channel.03:56
sylvisjOk, will try over there.03:57
sylvisj"Ubuntu kernel module problem? Ask in #ubuntu"03:57
jhutchinsTravis: This is why LVM is evil.  You need the set, not just a member.03:58
intelikeysylvisj wrong version or not compatable with the hardware.03:59
sylvisjIt's compatible; GeForce 8800GTS, current stable driver release03:59
sylvisjHm, manually unloading and reloading the nvidia kernel module fixed it, odd04:00
intelikeycan't insert a kernel module that doesn't match the running kernel version, or that the hardware doesn't match     (last half is more dependant on the exact module)04:00
Travisjhutchins well i think the other drive failed or something (I don't have it)04:00
sylvisjWell, the thing is - the module was loaded04:01
Travismy task was getting the data off the one drive i do have recovered04:01
sylvisjunloading and reloading it seems to have solved this issue, which makes me wonder why04:01
intelikeyrace condition ?04:01
nevilleTry reinstalling the driver, then running sudo nvidia-xconfig -add-argb-glx-visuals --composite04:01

Daisuke-Idosigma_: how are files on the kubuntu pc shared?  samba?  nfs?07:44
marx2kDaisuke: hah I guess as long as youre constantly scanning and decoding, that shouldnt be an issue for you :) I pay $20/month for unlimited download/unlimited speed07:45
Daisuke-Idothat sounds like...  giga?07:45
jca-DKDaisuke-Ido: Why not? i tried to use the restrizted drivers in kubunto but linuz freezes when i load x and i have to cut power to computer.07:46

SlynderdaleCan anyone here help me with a network problem in Gutsy Gibbon? For some reason, it won't let me set a Static IP in Gutsy Gibbon while it did in Feisty Fawn using the same information. I ended up doing a clean install of Gutsy Gibbon today to replace Feisty Fawn and ran into this problem. My DHCP IP currently is 192.168.1.100 yet when I try to set the static IP to 192.168.1.105 which I used in Feisty and WIndows, it fails to connect.07:52
sigma_marx2k: how did u do it?07:54
Linux_GaloreSlynderdale: when you have a static ip you dont actually connect07:55
marx2ksigma: I basically removed almost every option from my smb.conf and took it down to workgroup and  netbios name for global section and path for share section07:55
Linux_GaloreSlynderdale: if you not getting out it usually means you havent set the gateway and the dns properly07:56
marx2ksigma: I was having some serious samba issues before that07:56
Linux_GaloreSlynderdale: either that or you havent setup your router properly07:57
sigma_marx2k: are you connected to your internet router via a lan cable?07:57
marx2kyes07:57
marx2kbut also have wireless laptops on the lan07:57

Linux_GaloreSlynderdale: can you ssh into another machine ?07:59
marx2kmarx2k: it works automatically... I mean might have to restart networking in /etc/init.d but generally its automatically07:59
SlynderdaleLinux_Galore: No, it doesn't even register my gateway/router. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48299/07:59
SlynderdaleYou can see before then after when I set the static IP and then when I removed it08:00
Linux_GaloreSlynderdale: what does ifconfig show08:00
sigma_marx2k: ah ok i see, always wondered if it did, and how exactly would you share the internet connection on one pc over a linux network? lets assume its not a lan router but rather a usb modem that im using08:00
SlynderdaleLinux_Galore: Nothing after its set and before I have in the pastebin. THough if you want, I can get you the actual results though iI will have to reconnect to IRC.08:01
marx2ksigma: Unless youre hooking all your PC's into a centralized router and that router hooks into your gateway, I dont know how to work it08:02
SlynderdaleLinux_Galore: Its weird, I used exactly the same settings I used in Feisty Fawn as I did in Gutsy Gibbon yet it worked in FEisty but not in GUtsy and there hasn't been any hardware or network changes since then.08:03
sigma_marx2k: ok. i just dont understand why it doesn't work if i put default gateway as the pc with the internet connection08:03
marx2ksigma: yeah Im totally clueless about connection sharing08:04
sigma_marx2k: ok ive edited my samba settings in kcontrol, must i restart my pc for it to take effect or is there a command i can run to restart samba?08:05

fsckrok i am kinda new to kde been using gnome.  is there a way i can get rid of this stupid kdwallet crap12:59
bsandergeforce 7600 mobile or something12:59
nosrednaekimfsckr: yeah,you can disable the wallet13:00
fsckrwell i have already uninstalled it but it still comes up13:00
nosrednaekimfsckr: although kwallet is very useful if you run alot of kde apps (kmail, kopete, konqueror)13:00
sigma_kubuntubsander: how did u do it? i hav a 6600gt13:00
fsckrno it annoys me everytime i run something with a password it pops up13:01
bsanderfsckr: you can let kwallet have an empty password, so it still gets used but doesn't bother you anymore13:01
ibilicdrbobb: yes, wget did it, thanks13:01
drbobbdamn13:01
drbobbno good, network manager insists on using the old crypto config it has remembered13:01
drbobbhey can anyone gimme a hint on what to do about it??13:02
bsandersigma_kubuntu: i used nvidia-settings, mostly. But i have a strange setup, already have dual head and use the tv only for movies..13:02

test_I have two / in mounts13:04
test_I need to remove the wrong one but I always get busy device13:04
vzduchI don't think that's possible..13:05
drbobbor is it just me that is struggling with the general flakiness of networkmanager vs wireless??13:05
sigma_kubuntubsander: i also want to use tv only for movies. i tried nvidia settings. it doesnt do anything - how do i force tv detection?13:05
nosrednaekimtwo / mounts? unless its a merged FS, thats impossible.13:05
test_everytime I change fstab and reboot it goes back to original and does not retain my changes13:05
nosrednaekimsigma_kubuntu: no clue, I just know how to do it on my ATI13:06
nosrednaekimtry the command line nvidia-settings13:06
bsandersigma_kubuntu: i'll show you how I'm doing it, just a sec.13:06
vzduchtest_: 'mount' --> pastebin please13:06
test_http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48321/13:07
test_/dev/sda6  is the correct partition where /home resides13:07
test_after upgrading kubuntu I got this mess13:07
vzduchstrange13:08
test_yes13:08
kuroryuutest_: what's your fstab look like?13:08
vzduchonly thing I can think of is: use a live CD to correct the fstab & reboot13:08
drbobbwhy a live cd? why not just fix it now & reboot?13:09
test_http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48325/13:09
kuroryuudrbobb: cause it'll just update the fstab in the home dir and not in the real /13:10
test_because anytime I reboot the changes I make to fstab are erased and the file is brought to prior setting13:10
test_If I choose to boot off the live cd, what do I have to do_13:11
test_?13:11
kuroryuuthough you could umount /dev/sda5 and mount it as something else to change the fstab there, then make sure grub's booting the right partition as /13:11
test_but if I do so I get this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48326/13:12
kuroryuutest_: try lsof | grep /dev/sda513:12
kuroryuuit'll tell you what's using that mount13:13
test_I get empty line13:14
kuroryuuodd...13:14
test_even if I add mount -f it does not work13:14
test_yes13:14
kuroryuubasically you should boot up on the livecd and mount /desv/sda5 and change the fstab to the correct setting13:14
test_I will try13:15
test_thks for now.13:15
test_........13:15
drbobbkuroryuu:  what are u talking about13:15
kuroryuudrbobb: which part do you mean?13:16
drbobb<kuroryuu> drbobb: cause it'll just update the fstab in the home dir and not in the real /13:16
drbobbthis part13:16
kuroryuubecause he had his home directory mounted as / somehow13:16
drbobbaah sorry missed that13:16
drbobbhad stuff seriously fscked up then13:17
bsandersigma_kubuntu: I have this script: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48322/ and this xorg-conf-tv: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48324/ which is used in the script13:18
bsanderit creates a new xsession on the tv and starts mplayer on it13:18
drbobbok so can anyone claim that he/she has a setup such that networkmanager just works w/wireless?13:20
drbobbi wanna know the secret to make it so13:20
sigma_kubuntubsander: let me copy those links down and log into irc on my pc. im browsing on my phone now13:20
bsanderhehe ok13:21
kuroryuudrbobb: not that it's much help, but my wireless worked 'out of the box'13:22
drbobbmy story is that n.m. seems to work fine with my ap for days13:22
drbobbbut then one day decides it no longer wants to cooperate13:23
drbobbso day 1: it connects but disconnects after a minute or two13:23
drbobblather rinse repeat13:23
drbobbday 2: won't associate at all13:24
kuroryuuodd... what kinda card is it?13:24
drbobbbroadcom 431813:24
sigma_bsander: its me sigma_kubuntu13:24
drbobbi tried both ndiswrapper and bcm43xx13:24
sigma_bsander: how do i use the scripts?13:24
drbobbbut it makes no difference, dooesn't seem to be a driver problem13:24
kuroryuuhave you tried tinkering with your access point?13:25
drbobbpower-cycling the ap seems to help for a while sometimes13:25
drbobbbut then, sometimes it doesn't13:25
drbobbiwlist scan reports the ap correctly, with good signal quality13:26
sigma_bsander: are u still there?13:26
bsandersigma_: theres one script13:26
drbobbi tried tinkering with the crypto settings13:26
bsanderrun it with the path to a video13:26
drbobbbut when i downgraded the crypto, from wpa2-psk to wep13:27
bsanderthe second is an xorg.conf script13:27
bsanderput it in /etc/X1113:27
drbobbnetworkmanager insists on using the old settings, and of course fails13:27
bsander(dont overwrite your xorg.conf!!!)13:27
bsanderthe script uses it for the second xsession13:27
drbobbonly thing that works is switching off all crypto on the ap13:27
sigma_bsander: ah i see, but is it for s-video or composite?13:28
bsanders-video13:28
drbobboh i also changed the channel # on the ap to one that's unused in my neighborhood13:29
drbobbmade no difference either13:29
sigma_bsander: is svideo the cable with lots of pins in it?13:29
bsandersigma_: http://z.about.com/d/hometheater/1/7/C/9/svideo2.JPG13:30
sigma_bsander: yup thats it:)13:30
bsandergood :)13:31
sigma_bsander: no wait mine has more holes in it13:31
sigma_bsander: what does a composite look like?13:31
kuroryuusigma_: big, single pin, usually with a yellow jacket13:32
bsandersigma_: http://www.hometheatermag.com/images/archivesart/1105hook.3.jpg13:32
=== mikka is now known as fay_elf
bsanderso thats less holes ;)13:33
sigma_bsander: ok no thats what goes in my tv, so it must be a composite (i have a converter cable)13:33
fay_elfhi! to be able to burn audio cd's of mp3's using k3b, what package should i install?13:33
sigma_ok so where do i put the name of the video file?13:34
bsanderwhat matters is the tv-out port i think13:34
bsanderi have s-video, but use a scart to connect it to my tv13:34
=== sergey is now known as error
drbobbok i'll be trying to switch crypto back on but i'm fairly sure that will force me to reboot13:34
sigma_bsander: yeah i guess so, so must i name the xorg file u gave me xorg-conf-tv?13:35
drbobb(there doesn't seem to be any easy way to restart just the networkmanager service)13:35
=== error is now known as \-error
=== \-error is now known as sergey
bsanderyes13:36
sigma__bsander: sorry i disconnected my internet by mistake13:37
fay_elfok got it anyway libk3b2-mp313:37
sigma__bsander: i have renamed the xorg file to xorg-conf-tv , whats the next step?13:38
bsanderrun the script with a path to a movie. Note that your normal monitor will go blank as it switches xsessions, so it's not possible to keep on browsing while watching the video13:39
bsanderwhen the movie finishes or you press escape, you'll get back to the normal session again13:39
sigma__bsander: where do i put the path to the movie?13:40
bsanderi set it up like that cause i already have a dual head session and most GPU's don't seem to be able to output to 3 different screens..13:40
bsanderjust run tv-script.sh /home/me/movie.avi13:40
bsanderor however you named the script ;)13:41
sigma__bsander: oh ok, are you sure the xorg file should be named xorg-conf-tv and not xorg.conf.tv?13:42
bsanderyes13:42
bsanderyou can change it, but then also change it in the last line of the script :)13:42
sigma__ok13:42
sigma__guess i should give it a try13:43
sigma__bsander: it keeps saying "command not found"?13:44
bsanderwhich command?13:45
sigma__bsander: heres the command "tv-script.sh /home/sigma/sdb1/Media-Server/Thirteen"13:45
sigma__im running it in Konsole13:45
bsanderdoes it say which command it can't find?13:45
sigma__it says "bash: script.sh: command not found"13:46
vzduchsigma__: buy glasses :P13:47
vzduchthere's a dash in there13:47
sigma__bsander: ok i got it going but it just ends saying with a big error, hang on il paste it13:48
bsanderk13:48
nosrednaekimshouldn't Thirteen have a filetype suffix?13:49
sigma__nosrednaekim: i removed them, still works for some reason13:49

sigma__ok will do13:50
sigma__bsander: heres the error - "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48328/"13:50

drbobb_damn i can't tweak the crypto settings on my ap at all13:53
sigma__um guys my pc isnt allowing me to open any apps since running that script13:53
drbobb_network manager always insists on using the old ones it remembered, even after a reboot13:54
sigma__hang on im gona restart x13:54
drbobb_it's either all crypto off, or the exact settings that used to work in the past13:55
MGalaxyhello?13:55
drbobb_(but don;t seem to work anymore)13:55
nosrednaekimdrbobb_: did you try a purge of knetworkmanager and a reinstall?13:55
drbobb_nosrednaekim: no, but do you suggest that is what one should do every time one changes some settings on one's accesspoint?13:56
sigma__ok im back now13:56
nosrednaekimdrbobb_: certainly not, but Knetworkmanager is also a piece of pure bugginess.13:57
ibilicin Disks and Filesystems, what does the "Enable" checkbox do?13:57
drbobb_anyway i'm sure it keeps the ap settings somewhere in my home dir13:57
nosrednaekimibilic: it mounts it13:58
ibilicalso, how do I see a list of mounted partitions?13:58
drbobb_and purging the package would't get rid of them13:58
ibilicand how do I see a list of mountable devices?13:58
sigma__bsander: i got the xterm installed, should i try running the command?13:58
ibilicbut I have some partitions that are there and have the Enable/Disable option and some of them don't13:58

drbobb_MGalaxy: sorry no idea13:59
bsanderyou could also just sit there and watch your screen, but I think trying to run the command would be a tad more useful ;)14:00
kaminixDo I actually need Klipper running?14:00
kaminixDo I need it to use ctrl+c?14:00
sigma__bsander: i got a picture:) but on my monitor because its not hooked 2da tv, il have to carry the pc over there, is it normal for the command to revert back to my monitor if no tv is attached?14:01
bsanderer14:01
bsanderi don't know really14:01
sigma__kaminix: its good for storing stuff u copied14:01
bsanderyou just got it on your regular monitor?14:01
sigma__bsander: yup14:01
sigma__bsander: lemme just try it on the tv, will u still b around?14:02
bsanderyeah i'll be here for about 20 more minutes14:02
kaminixsigma__: What if I only need the thing I copied last? If I don't really need anything except ctrl+c/v and ctrl+middleclick?14:02
bsanderis that enough?14:02
bsanderkaminix: X sometimes acts really strange with c/p14:03
sigma__bsander: should be, one quik thing - will this also work on a ati laptop chipset?14:03
bsanderfor instance when you copy something and then quit the app, your clipboard will be empty without kl;ipper14:03
bsanderI couldn't say really, don't count on it since I generated the xorgconf with nvidia-settings14:03
bsanderbut it might work, i truly don't know :)14:04
kaminixI see... well is there anyway to hide klipper then?14:04
bsanderyou can configure your systemtray to hide certain icons, kaminix14:04

How can I have it store downloaded packages on the 60gb drive, so that if I format and reinstall in the future, it doesn't have to redownload everything? There's gotta be somewhere I can define the local package save folder, right?14:44
Kingzari don't have gnome!14:44

LjL!startup-#kubuntu is <reply> To make programs start up automatically when you log into your KDE session, run all programs that you want to be started and close all other programs, then select 'Save Session' in the K menu.

ubotuonishidato: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/15:23
