| cheguevara_ | oh source | 00:11 |
| hamadooo | help | 00:11 |
| cheguevara_ | didn't notice that | 00:11 |
| hamadooo | i have a question now ... i have to languages in ubuntu how can i swich between them by using ctrl and alt just like the windows | 00:11 |
| hamadooo | tow | 00:11 |

| hamadooo | where i can find this control panel | 00:11 |
| cheguevara_ | hamadooo, ubuntu or kubuntu? | 00:12 |
| hamadooo | ubuntu | 00:12 |
| cheguevara_ | steveire, give me 5 minutes to get the source | 00:12 |
| cheguevara_ | hamadooo, so why are you asking your questions in a kubuntu support channel | 00:12 |
| hamadooo | they don't help me there | 00:12 |
| hamadooo | no one asnswers me | 00:13 |
| cheguevara_ | well we don't have gnome to help you :P | 00:13 |
| jack12 | hamadoo: what is your question | 00:13 |
| ardchoille | hamadooo: This channel is for Kubuntu support, many of the apps used by these folks won't be available in gnome unless you install them. | 00:13 |
| hamadooo | i have tow languages in my ubuntu .. i want to swich between them by ctrl and alt just like the windows | 00:13 |
| jack12 | if my connection times out one more time, i am gonna flllliiippp | 00:14 |
| hamadooo | ok ardchille | 00:14 |
| hamadooo | i think there are almost the same .. ubuntu and kubuntu | 00:14 |
| hamadooo | that's why i asked here | 00:14 |
| bazhang | what languages hamadooo | 00:15 |
| cheguevara_ | hamadooo, the core is the same but the GUI is not | 00:15 |
| hamadooo | i have arabic and english and i want to swich between them via keyboard | 00:15 |
| andreas__ | Hello? I am having troubles with Apollon.. Anybody to help | 00:15 |
| andreas__ | ? | 00:15 |
| jack12 | y is it that some programs (i.e. wmbattery) install into /usr/bin and also in /usr/bin/X11 | 00:15 |
| bazhang | skim hamadooo read up on it, then go to #ubuntu | 00:15 |
| hamadooo | what skim means | 00:16 |
| cheguevara_ | hamadooo, try System -> Preferences -> Input languages | 00:16 |
| cheguevara_ | or something along those lines | 00:16 |
| bazhang | skim hamadooo read up on it--did you do that already? | 00:16 |
| hamadooo | no | 00:16 |
| hamadooo | where can i read about it | 00:16 |
| bazhang | then first do so hamadooo--are you familiar with any search engines? | 00:17 |
| hamadooo | yes google | 00:17 |
| bazhang | there you go | 00:17 |
| hamadooo | but let me use what cheguevara sayid first | 00:17 |
| cheguevara_ | System (top 3rd place) | 00:17 |
| cheguevara_ | Preferences (top in list) | 00:17 |
| cheguevara_ | Keyboard (5th in list) | 00:17 |
| cheguevara_ | Layouts (2nd tab) | 00:17 |
| cheguevara_ | try that | 00:17 |
| hamadooo | ok | 00:17 |
| hamadooo | yes i did that .. and i already have the tow language in my ubuntu .. but i can swich between them with my keyboard like i always do in windows | 00:18 |
| hamadooo | ctrl + alt | 00:18 |
| ardchoille | hamadooo: are you using gnome or kde? | 00:19 |
| hamadooo | gnome | 00:19 |
| jack12 | maybe i should switch from kubuntu and ubuntu.....? | 00:19 |
| jack12 | perhaps...any thoughts? | 00:19 |
| bazhang | hamadooo: I already answered that: skim--read about it, then go to #ubuntu | 00:19 |
| cheguevara_ | hamadooo, there where i told u to go | 00:19 |
| cheguevara_ | will be options | 00:19 |

| cheguevara_ | amsn | 00:20 |
| hamadooo | i want it to be like the windows | 00:20 |
| bazhang | hamadooo: then go to ##windows | 00:20 |
| hamadooo | amsn good but doesnt support arabic .. only english | 00:20 |
| cheguevara_ | why switch to linux if you want things to be like windows :P | 00:21 |
| cheguevara_ | especially to a gnome distro :P | 00:21 |

| tehm0nk | kinda weird tho | 00:27 |
| tehm0nk | tekteen: do you know the package name? | 00:27 |
| nosrednaekim | jack12: ksynaptics | 00:27 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: OK, forget the -project switch for the minute and just do qmake-qt4 | 00:27 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: but they are both finally workning? | 00:28 |
| tekteen | tehm0nk: 64 bit or 32? | 00:28 |
| tehm0nk | 32 | 00:28 |
| cheguevara_ | steveire, i know that won't work 'cause there's no Makefile :P | 00:28 |
| tehm0nk | yeah both are working but it's weird | 00:28 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: flashplugin-nonfree | 00:28 |
| jack12 | nosrednaekim: does that work for hp laptops or anything? | 00:28 |

| Xbehave | on a toshiba laptop i only get sound though my headphones | 00:29 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: never mind me.. are you using konqueror or firefox? | 00:29 |
| tekteen | http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz | 00:30 |
| nosrednaekim | cheguevara_: does it have a README or INSTALL file? | 00:30 |
| wimpies | nosrednaekim : I have that (even a higher) version installed : 9.0.115.0ubuntu2 and the libs. It also seems firefox is loading them (lsof shows lib) but when I enter a site with flash 9 I get the request to download the flash 9 | 00:30 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: I'm having some network issues. I'll be back in a minute. have a look at ownership and permissions on those files. | 00:30 |
| tehm0nk | firefoc | 00:30 |
| cheguevara_ | ah acutally you are right | 00:30 |
| nosrednaekim | wimpies: try it in konqueror. | 00:30 |
| cheguevara_ | i fetched the files as root | 00:30 |
| cheguevara_ | duuuh | 00:30 |
| wimpies | nosrednaekim : same problem | 00:30 |
| Pete_^ | It seems they've changed the flash plugin | 00:30 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: :) | 00:30 |
| tekteen | new update :-D | 00:31 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: then visit any site that has flash and it should prompt you to install the plugin. | 00:31 |
| Pete_^ | flashplugin-nonfree is broken, along with konqueror auto install | 00:31 |
| Pete_^ | nosrednaekim: Its broken there too. | 00:31 |
| nosrednaekim | Pete_^: Adobe changed it? | 00:31 |
| tekteen | yep | 00:31 |
| tehm0nk | ok got it | 00:31 |
| nosrednaekim | oh... wow. | 00:31 |
| wimpies | Pete_^ : indeed I downloaded the tar.gz version extracted the lib, copied all to no avail | 00:31 |
| ardchoille | flashplugin-nonfree is not broken for me in Gutsy | 00:32 |
| wimpies | I run feisty | 00:32 |
| Pete_^ | nosrednaekim: I believe so | 00:32 |
| tekteen | They need to update it | 00:32 |
| tekteen | I will find a bug on it | 00:32 |
| Pete_^ | ardchoille: not sure what you are doing ;) | 00:32 |
| ardchoille | Pete_^: Oh, you mean for new installs? | 00:33 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: sudo chown -R cheguevara_:cheguevara_ qt4-x11-4.3.3 so | 00:33 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: seems flash is kinda broken, you may not want to install right now... if you can wait a few days it should be fixed. | 00:33 |
| Pete_^ | the md5sum of the file has changed, pretty simple. Unless the package has been updated really recently | 00:33 |
| ardchoille | Ah, ok | 00:33 |
| Pete_^ | ardchoille: Yes | 00:33 |
| cheguevara_ | yeah steveire i know that :P | 00:33 |
| nosrednaekim | cheguevara_: what are you doing that for? its in the repositories.. | 00:33 |
| steveire | :-) cool. Is it working this time? | 00:34 |
| cheguevara_ | nosrednaekim: yeah I know, steveire wants to show me some bug though :P | 00:34 |
| wimpies | nosrednaekim : I find it strange since the lib *is* there (I used the tar.gz file at adobe's) but even that does not work. So is the Adobe version broken ? | 00:34 |
| cheguevara_ | steveire, yeah got textedit started | 00:34 |
| cheguevara_ | whats the bug then | 00:34 |
| Pete_^ | They've changed the version they are hosting recently | 00:34 |
| nosrednaekim | cheguevara_: oh | 00:34 |
| nosrednaekim | wimpies: that seems to be the case | 00:34 |
| wimpies | nosrednaekim : and will that be fixed in a few days ? | 00:35 |
| cheguevara_ | nosrednaekim: never compiled qt or any qt project by hand before, so sound n00b lol | 00:35 |
| nosrednaekim | wimpies: hopefully | 00:35 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: select a word and ctrl+u to toggle underline a few times. The bug is that the first time it underlines the word without toggling the button, second time it toggles the button, and third time it toggles off normally. | 00:35 |
| nosrednaekim | cheguevara_: heh | 00:36 |
| cheguevara_ | unlikely that flash will be fixed soon | 00:36 |
| cheguevara_ | the patch is not ready yet and the size of it is not stable material | 00:36 |
| billybobo | my boot screen isn't working anymore | 00:36 |
| nosrednaekim | billybobo: what about it is not working. | 00:37 |
| cheguevara_ | steveire, toggled for me from the first time | 00:37 |
| billybobo | when i buut it used to read, "Kubuntu", and had a progress bar. Now its just black | 00:37 |
| billybobo | \\when i *boot*... | 00:37 |
| nosrednaekim | billybobo: did you just swap videocards? | 00:37 |
| billybobo | nope | 00:37 |
| billybobo | intel card | 00:37 |
| nosrednaekim | or from onboard to PCI-X? | 00:38 |
| billybobo | i've tried dpkg-reconfigure usplash and tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:38 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: Hmmm... That's interesting. It must mean something's wrong with my box. Bad for me, but probably means kjots4 is ok. | 00:38 |
| billybobo | nope same card | 00:38 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: Have a look at the qt tutorial and examples while you have it. Qt's powerful and easy. | 00:38 |
| nosrednaekim | billybobo: odd, the people who most often report that is those who either have two monitor outputs, or two video cards | 00:38 |
| billybobo | nope. | 00:39 |
| Pete_^ | for people wondering about flash : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/173890 | 00:39 |
| cheguevara_ | steveire, which qt version you got? | 00:39 |
| Pete_^ | I believe its the same in Gusty too | 00:39 |
| cheguevara_ | steveire, qt might be easy C++ is not :P | 00:39 |
| * nosrednaekim <3 QT | 00:39 |
| billybobo | any suggestions on how to fix it? | 00:39 |
| steveire | cheguevara_: 4.3.2 from kubuntu repos | 00:39 |
| cheguevara_ | mine is 4.3.3 | 00:39 |

| billybobo | i've also lost all of my screensavers in KDE!! :( | 00:41 |

| nosrednaekim | billybobo: yeah, look at the bugs, I heard about that one before | 00:42 |

| billybobo | ok but nothing on the usplash during startup or shutdown? | 00:43 |
| nosrednaekim | steveire: probably not... i'm on dial-up,and i'd have to get the -dev's as well | 00:43 |
| steveire | nosrednaekim: Ah right | 00:43 |
| steveire | cheers | 00:43 |
| nosrednaekim | billybobo: not that I kow of... you could try booting a different kernel | 00:43 |
| billybobo | this computer is a gift, to be given tonight... and Kubuntu is falling apart on me :( | 00:44 |
| nosrednaekim | steveire: sorry... | 00:44 |
| billybobo | there is no other kernel listed, even though it installed a new one this morning | 00:44 |
| nosrednaekim | steveire: is this a kde bug? | 00:44 |
| nosrednaekim | billybobo: ok, well, nothing seems to be seriously broken, a missing splash is really nothing to be worried about. | 00:45 |
| tekteen | billybobo: u may want to reinstall | 00:45 |
| billybobo | eh, but a black screen for 45 seconds isn't promising | 00:45 |
| nosrednaekim | but the screensavers..... hmm | 00:45 |
| steveire | nosrednaekim: It's from qt, but I don't know if it's something wrong with my box's config/qt4.3.2 bug/kubuntu packages... Trying to track it down | 00:45 |
| billybobo | i've spent hours getting it to this state, not going to do that before tonight... aka in 30m | 00:45 |
| tekteen | billybobo: click alt+F1 during boot | 00:45 |
| nosrednaekim | billybobo: take "splash" off the grub line and see text instead :D | 00:45 |
| billybobo | hmmm | 00:45 |
| nosrednaekim | steveire: oh ok... don't want to look dumb when you report it as a bug? :D | 00:46 |
| tehm0nk | how do i kill a program that isn't responding? | 00:46 |
| tehm0nk | adept manager freaked out on me... | 00:46 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: "ctrl+esc" | 00:47 |
| Pete_^ | tehm0nk: Ksysguard ctrl-etc | 00:47 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: use synaptic... its generally stabler | 00:47 |
| steveire | nosrednaekim: If it's fixed in4.3.3 I don't think it's worth reporting :) | 00:47 |
| Pete_^ | Xkill is good too ;) | 00:47 |
| Pete_^ | You have to take more care with that though. | 00:47 |
| nosrednaekim | steveire: well, it is, because kde4 depends on >=4.3.2 right now, so they will probably want to be aware of it | 00:47 |

| tehm0nk | where does synaptic install to? | 00:51 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: what do you mean? | 00:51 |
| tehm0nk | i can't find it in my menu | 00:51 |
| nosrednaekim | oh... system I think. | 00:51 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: or "kdesudo synaptic" on the command line' | 00:52 |
| tehm0nk | are any of you gamers? | 00:53 |
| tehm0nk | or better yet, play wow? | 00:53 |
| bazhang | yeah | 00:53 |
| tehm0nk | did you install wow in kubuntu? | 00:53 |
| bazhang | not wow--wii | 00:53 |
| Pete_^ | I just built a new gaming machine yesterday, but I don't play WoW. | 00:53 |
| tehm0nk | bah, just wondered if i should install wow in vista or here | 00:54 |
| * nosrednaekim playes Bzflag... and thats about it | 00:54 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: its possible to do it within wine | 00:54 |
| nosrednaekim | and its been done many many times | 00:54 |
| tehm0nk | and is it better to have an extended to 2nd screen setup with dual monitors or 2 X screens? | 00:55 |
| nosrednaekim | !WoW | 00:55 |
| ubotu | Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 00:55 |
| bazhang | very good under wine iirc tehm0nk | 00:55 |
| Pete_^ | tehm0nk: Depends what you want to do | 00:55 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: extended is harder to set up usually | 00:55 |
| tehm0nk | so is dual X screens | 00:55 |
| tehm0nk | for some reason the second one is like... weird | 00:55 |
| nosrednaekim | like how? | 00:55 |
| tehm0nk | the menubar is super basic | 00:55 |
| tehm0nk | doesn't look like the other one | 00:56 |
| nosrednaekim | menubar for what. | 00:56 |
| Pete_^ | I remember that | 00:56 |
| tehm0nk | and my other one lost stuff | 00:56 |
| tehm0nk | nosrednaekim: at the bottom of the screen | 00:56 |
| tehm0nk | the taskbar i guess | 00:56 |
| Pete_^ | I personally prefer twinview or xinerama | 00:56 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: oh.... kicker and two desktops... | 00:56 |
| tehm0nk | if you maximize something does it go BOTH screens or just the one? | 00:56 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: yeah, i've never messed with dual monitors.. projector is as far as I've gotten. | 00:57 |
| tehm0nk | (pete) | 00:57 |
| Pete_^ | tehm0nk: Depends how you set it up | 00:57 |
| Pete_^ | I like it to maximise to one screen | 00:57 |
| tehm0nk | right same with me | 00:57 |
| tehm0nk | but i dont know what to do to make it setup right... | 00:57 |
| nosrednaekim | !dualhead | 00:57 |

| tehm0nk | i'd Like to be able to drag things to the other screen | 00:57 |
| Pete_^ | Twinview is good if you have one nvidia card outputting to two screens, xinerama is good if you have a more complicated setup but 3d acceleration across multiple screens isn't such of an issue | 00:58 |
| nosrednaekim | so its really running two whole xservers? | 00:58 |
| tehm0nk | nosrednaekim: Duh been there :-P | 00:58 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: figures ;) | 00:58 |
| tehm0nk | well i have 2 videocards :-x | 00:58 |
| Pete_^ | I don't know if theres an ATI driver based solution | 00:58 |
| tehm0nk | 1 monitor on each | 00:58 |
| tehm0nk | Pete_^: you good witht he xorg.conf file? | 00:59 |
| Pete_^ | tehm0nk: I wouldn't say good, but if needed I can have a look I suppose | 00:59 |
| tehm0nk | i could pastebin mine and you tell me what to change to make it the way i'd like? | 00:59 |
| Pete_^ | tehm0nk: I'll give it a shot | 01:00 |
| tehm0nk | ok cool | 01:00 |
| tehm0nk | lemme get the current one and pastebin... | 01:00 |

| tehm0nk | nosrednaekim: that for my setup is what cause SO many problems | 01:01 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: ah... | 01:01 |

| tehm0nk | it opens a window that says "loading progress" | 01:03 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: oh..... | 01:03 |
| Pete_^ | So you have two 8600 gt's? | 01:03 |
| tehm0nk | yup | 01:03 |
| tehm0nk | and 2 of the same LCD monitors | 01:03 |
| nosrednaekim | that makes things easier I would think | 01:04 |
| Pete_^ | It helps I suppose, but it doesn't really matter | 01:04 |
| Pete_^ | Just a question, are these cards in a SLi configuration? | 01:05 |
| tehm0nk | the connector is connected but no it's not enabled | 01:05 |
| nosrednaekim | you can do SLI and dualhead at the same time? | 01:05 |
| tehm0nk | that is enabled through drivers anyways | 01:05 |
| Pete_^ | I don't think so? | 01:05 |
| tehm0nk | nosrednaekim: No. | 01:05 |
| nosrednaekim | tehm0nk: I'd remve the cable.... | 01:06 |
| tehm0nk | i didn't know that till i had installed it... | 01:06 |
| Pete_^ | sadly you can't use twinview (so thats proper acceleration down the drain..) | 01:06 |
| tehm0nk | nosrednaekim: dont need to, Drivers enable it | 01:06 |
| tehm0nk | pete what do you mean? | 01:06 |
| tehm0nk | if i use xinerama can i still? | 01:06 |
| Pete_^ | twinview works with the binary nvidia driver, and one card | 01:06 |
| tehm0nk | right | 01:06 |
| Pete_^ | You can with xinerama, but performance is degraded | 01:07 |
| tehm0nk | but i mean compiz works on the other monitor too | 01:07 |
| tehm0nk | but the biggest thing is i'd like to be able to Drag things to the other monitor | 01:07 |
| Pete_^ | You will be able to with xinerama | 01:08 |
| tehm0nk | but if i lose all kinds of performance... i'll just open the other stuff over there lol | 01:08 |
| tehm0nk | pete do you use that kdesudo nvidia-settings method? | 01:10 |
| Pete_^ | tehm0nk: I have a pretty complicated setup, two graphics cards, three monitors, so no. | 01:11 |
| Pete_^ | Try this config: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48963/ | 01:11 |
| Pete_^ | make sure to have a copy of the working one | 01:11 |
| Pete_^ | sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.working | 01:11 |
| Pete_^ | in a terminal | 01:11 |
| tehm0nk | right i have a copy already | 01:11 |
| tehm0nk | question | 01:12 |
| tehm0nk | is that extra monitor in there neccessary? | 01:12 |
| tehm0nk | "Generic Monitor" | 01:12 |
| tehm0nk | and "Default Screen" | 01:12 |
| Pete_^ | I think you could remove the monitor identifed by "Generic Monitor", although I think you may be missing a section Screen0 | 01:13 |
| Pete_^ | Infact I'm talking rubbish | 01:14 |
| Pete_^ | Its there, I just didn't see it for some reason | 01:14 |
| tehm0nk | ok lemme restart X | 01:14 |
| Pete_^ | remember how to fix it if X doesn't start | 01:14 |
| Pete_^ | too late.. | 01:14 |
| Downix_SPARC | anyone familiar with adding new options to a configure script? | 01:15 |

| tehm0nk | that icon is Normally on the taskbar on the bottom right... | 01:21 |

| * nosrednaekim didn't look at the SS | 01:21 |
| Pete_^ | Sure looks like it to me | 01:21 |
| tehm0nk | i dont know if it's supposed to be Blue like that completely | 01:21 |
| tehm0nk | yes Compiz | 01:21 |
| Pete_^ | I didn't even know Compiz was working with Xinerama yet, last I checked it totally died | 01:22 |
| tehm0nk | hmm | 01:22 |
| Pete_^ | It did work a long long time ago | 01:22 |
| tehm0nk | right now xinerama is enabled | 01:22 |
| tehm0nk | but... | 01:22 |
| tehm0nk | i've got two x screens still... | 01:22 |
| Pete_^ | and you are unable to move stuff between them? | 01:22 |
| tehm0nk | nope lol | 01:23 |
| tehm0nk | Oh but i'm still lost on that adept notifier, and why it's there... | 01:23 |
| tehm0nk | not on the bar... | 01:23 |
| Pete_^ | I think Compiz is to blame | 01:24 |
| Downix_SPARC | ATI or nVidia? | 01:24 |
| nosrednaekim | yeah... thats certain;y a compoz problem | 01:24 |

| sub[t]rnl | to fix those icons | 01:24 |
| Pete_^ | Do you have a Wacom tablet or am I free to remove them? | 01:24 |
| Downix_SPARC | it looks like the same error I got with an older ATI driver | 01:25 |
| Pete_^ | "dcop kicker kicker restart" for reference | 01:25 |
| Downix_SPARC | was a mix-up between the driver and DRI turned out | 01:25 |
| sub[t]rnl | also I've noticed if you start another app that uses the system tray, when its icon pops up, the others will go in place | 01:25 |
| tehm0nk | remove them | 01:25 |
| sub[t]rnl | like kwalletmanager or something | 01:25 |
| Pete_^ | (I do have a Wacom tablet, so they came in handy infact ;) ) | 01:25 |
| tehm0nk | i just turned Off Compiz :( | 01:25 |
| tehm0nk | how do i make it Not startup with login tho? | 01:26 |
| sub[t]rnl | compiz? remove it from the ~/.kde/Autostart/ directory | 01:27 |

| sub[t]rnl | tehm0nk➜ your home dir | 01:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | cd ~/.kde/Autostart/ | 01:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | that is if you created a startup script in there | 01:29 |

| tehm0nk | brb | 01:33 |
| tehm0nk | same thing | 01:34 |
| tehm0nk | but it fixed that stupid adept notifier thing | 01:34 |
| tehm0nk | maybe cause compiz is gone but still | 01:34 |
| Pete_^ | My cpu seems to sit around 30-35°C with just a case fan, with a fan on the cooler it drops to around 20°C, I can't decide if its worth it. It would let me run the case fan a bit slower.. | 01:34 |
| Pete_^ | Yes, it will be because compiz is gone | 01:34 |
| tehm0nk | which i think that problem is fixable | 01:35 |
| tehm0nk | but still can't drag things across screen | 01:35 |
| Pete_^ | It should be | 01:35 |
| nosrednaekim | Pete_^: what CPU us that? | 01:35 |

| tehm0nk | is there a command for terminal to restart X? | 01:42 |
| Pete_^ | tehm0nk: /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 01:42 |
| sigma | nosrednaekim: yea i heard about them, apparently amd changed the socket completely | 01:42 |

| Tm_T | Kubuntu_M: you are repeating, you notice? | 03:46 |
| flaccid | cloneyin: i don't know what your problem is. mount it manual. | 03:46 |
| Kubuntu_M | im sorry | 03:46 |
| cloneyin | how to mount it | 03:46 |
| flaccid | i showed you before | 03:47 |
| flaccid | [14:30] <flaccid> otherwise do sudo fdisk -l to see the device name for the partition in questin and then see !fstab and !ntfs on how to mount manually | 03:47 |
| cloneyin | it sees the drive by fdisk | 03:47 |
| flaccid | you can read the guides to learn how to mount in fstab | 03:47 |
| Kubuntu_M | !fstab | 03:48 |
| ubotu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 03:48 |
| flaccid | !ntfs | 03:48 |
| ubotu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 03:48 |
| flaccid | thats a better guide | 03:48 |

| Ose | Mm. How about transparency.. Is it supposed to only show the background through the window? | 04:10 |
| hydrogen | its supposed to make the window transparent | 04:12 |
| hydrogen | allowing anything behind it to show through | 04:12 |
| Ose | That's what I thought.. It just shows the background. Windows are hidden. | 04:13 |
| hydrogen | are the windows behind it or are they minimized? | 04:13 |
| Ose | They're straight behind it. | 04:14 |
| cloneyin | flaccid, from konqueror desktop , i clicked on /mnt folder it says i have no permission | 04:16 |
| cloneyin | Isuccessfully mounted it | 04:16 |
| cloneyin | but not allowing sudo | 04:16 |
| cloneyin | only root | 04:16 |
| cloneyin | so i did su | 04:16 |
| cloneyin | then go to /mnt | 04:16 |
| cloneyin | and I can access the hd but only interminal | 04:17 |
| cloneyin | how can I change to root from konquesror | 04:17 |

| wwbwwb | thanks ubotu | 04:28 |
| bazhang | snowdonkey: lspci for video card | 04:28 |
| cloneyin | flaccid, it does not show on fstab | 04:31 |
| cloneyin | however i did mtab andit shows there | 04:32 |
| sub[t]rnl | snowdonkey➜ maybe kinfocenter in the kmenu for your motherboard | 04:32 |
| sub[t]rnl | snowdonkey➜ or sudo dmidecode | 04:32 |
| snowdonkey | bazhang: Thanks, I found it that way. | 04:32 |
| flaccid | cloneyin: read the guide!! | 04:32 |
| cloneyin | flaccid, on mtab /dev/sdb /mnt ntfs rw 0 0 | 04:32 |
| flaccid | it tells you how to do it in fstab | 04:32 |
| flaccid | yeah sdb is the drive not the partition... | 04:33 |
| snowdonkey | sub[t]rnl: Ok, looking through dmidecode now | 04:33 |
| flaccid | so maybe you want /dev/sdb1 /mnt/mountpoint ntfs rw 0 0 | 04:33 |
| flaccid | you don't want to mount to /mnt either... | 04:33 |
| flaccid | you need to create a mount point | 04:33 |
| flaccid | you might also want user mount. /dev/sdb1 /mnt/mountpoint ntfs user,rw 0 0 | 04:34 |
| cloneyin | also shows this /dev/sdb /mnt/sdb1 ntfs rw 0 0 | 04:34 |
| flaccid | thats not going to work either. delete them. | 04:34 |
| cloneyin | on mtab | 04:34 |
| cloneyin | but I can connect to it as su | 04:34 |
| flaccid | delete them from mtab and do it properly in fstab as per the guides and what i said | 04:34 |
| cloneyin | I am copying movies now | 04:34 |
| flaccid | thats because you need the user option, cloneyin to do user mounts.. also the mountpoint needs perms suffice for the user | 04:35 |
| snowdonkey | sub[t]rnl: Would the motherboard be "Base Board Information"? | 04:35 |
| flaccid | learning to user mount is far better than just doing root. | 04:35 |
| cloneyin | ok, need to elarn this one | 04:35 |
| sub[t]rnl | snowdonkey➜ yup | 04:35 |

| Tm_T | Konqueror has them in its settings | 04:57 |
| Tm_T | other place is kcontrol atleast | 04:58 |
| sub[t]rnl | kcontrol -> KDE components -> file association | 04:58 |
| lukosanthropos | cool | 04:58 |
| lukosanthropos | Thanks | 04:58 |

| sub[t]rnl | sudo mount -a | 05:17 |
| cloneyin | I just modified my fstab and need to test it without a reboot | 05:18 |
| cloneyin | is that it? | 05:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | yup | 05:18 |
| cloneyin | thanks | 05:19 |
| cloneyin | I still do not have access rights to which I mounted | 05:19 |
| cloneyin | shoud I include uams ot fstab? | 05:20 |
| cloneyin | umask | 05:20 |
| sub[t]rnl | make sure you have rights to the mount points | 05:20 |
| flaccid | you want to user mount | 05:21 |
| flaccid | so its just mount /mnt/point | 05:21 |
| flaccid | if you get an error, show me | 05:21 |
| cloneyin | i used /home/cloneyin as my mount point | 05:21 |
| cloneyin | is that bad? | 05:21 |
| flaccid | as i said make sure you have ownership/rights on the mount point | 05:21 |
| flaccid | no its not bad | 05:21 |
| flaccid | so when you do mount /home/cloneyin | 05:22 |
| flaccid | what is the result | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | actially /home/cloneyin/Desktop | 05:22 |
| flaccid | and also show me the fstab entry for that mount point | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | Isee theusb icon | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | onthe desktop | 05:22 |
| flaccid | do not mount to your desktop! | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | but it is licked | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | locked | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | ok | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | sorry | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | let me try again | 05:22 |
| cloneyin | so with desktop is bad | 05:23 |
| flaccid | the icon on your desktop is usually a shortcut.. | 05:23 |
| cloneyin | ok, let me do it again | 05:23 |
| flaccid | yes you create a mount point and change its perms as i advised earlier | 05:23 |
| cloneyin | damn I am actually learnign fstab now | 05:23 |
| cloneyin | thansk to you flaccid | 05:23 |
| cloneyin | thanks | 05:23 |
| flaccid | its important, because linux/hal is still not reliable and user mounts are only done by hal in that respect by default | 05:23 |
| dr_willis | fstab and how things mount - is a top 10 to learn item :) | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | I still need to make that list.. someday | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | Grub, Mounting items, lets see what else.. how to manully check filesystems.. | 05:25 |
| flaccid | yeah and in my opinion there should be frontends to these in the distro | 05:25 |
| flaccid | there still isn't | 05:25 |
| cloneyin | i see | 05:25 |
| flaccid | nothing that is smoothly integrated/in base | 05:26 |
| dr_willis | actually i thought there was one.. but i always edit my fstab with vi. So its no matter to me. | 05:26 |
| cloneyin | you are also right flaccid | 05:26 |
| cloneyin | I clicked on that usb icon, it just shows my desktop with konqueror | 05:26 |
| cloneyin | it became a shortcut after I unmonted it | 05:27 |
| flaccid | hal attempts most of it but is not consistant i guess | 05:27 |
| flaccid | cloneyin: you might wanna do what i suggested | 05:27 |
| flaccid | that usually helps | 05:27 |
| sub[t]rnl | fstab is the front end! | 05:27 |
| flaccid | fstab is the configuration file. a frontend abstracts the user from it | 05:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | configuration files = linux | 05:28 |
| flaccid | nah | 05:28 |

| flaccid | hes pretty fat | 05:29 |
| flaccid | lol | 05:29 |
| sub[t]rnl | dr_willis➜ lol, +2 for you | 05:30 |
| flaccid | nah thats called a pissed dbadmin | 05:30 |
| stacey | erm the beep noise that gets triggerd by system bell (i disabled it in kde but compiz likes using it) | 05:31 |
| flaccid | is this in konsole, stacey? | 05:31 |
| stacey | no compiz uses it whenever you do something wrong | 05:32 |
| flaccid | if so goto settings | bell and choose your desired option | 05:32 |
| flaccid | oh really | 05:32 |
| flaccid | um. in that case perhaps you can mute it in kmix or alsamixer. not sure why its doing that. is it pc speaker or the soundcard? | 05:32 |
| flaccid | you can change sound/schemes in kcontrol if its the scheme doing it with a wav | 05:33 |
| stacey | its the internal speaker not anythng alsa uses | 05:33 |
| stacey | nvm kde had changed a setting but left a checkbox unticked | 05:35 |
| flaccid | ok cool | 05:37 |
| dr_willis | xset b 0 0 0 - will also kill off a lot of beeps in xterm, and other apps. | 05:38 |
| dr_willis | there may be some other xset command that does the same thing. :) i jsut rember 0 0 0 because its 3 #'s that set the freq/duration/Pitch or somthing.. of the bell. :) | 05:39 |
| stacey | thx thats what i was looking for | 05:39 |

| zenobius | ardchoille: you can change it in the menus there | 06:27 |
| ardchoille | sub[t]rnl: Tore that silly thing off my kb long ago :) | 06:27 |
| zenobius | i used tuprs on it | 06:27 |
| sub[t]rnl | hehe | 06:27 |
| zenobius | turps* | 06:27 |
| sub[t]rnl | ardchoille➜ its usefull as hell, another key to map shortcuts too, without using a two key combination | 06:27 |
| sub[t]rnl | ardchoille➜ plus, compiz uses it everywhere | 06:28 |
| zenobius | so anyone been able to make custom service menus that *work* | 06:28 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: D'oh, I feel stoopid now, it's in Settings > Configure Shortcuts | 06:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | newp! but I installed some customs that work nice | 06:28 |
| ardchoille | Don't get me started on compiz, lol | 06:29 |
| zenobius | the ones im dropping in ~/.kde/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/ will only show up in my right click menu if i right click on the actual .desktop file that defines the service menu | 06:29 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: I write service menus | 06:29 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: pastebin the service menu and I'll take a look. | 06:31 |
| ardchoille | !paste | 06:31 |
| 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) | 06:31 |
| cumulus | Woohoo, It is solve now, thank you Ose and posingaspopular | 06:32 |
| cumulus | solved* | 06:32 |
| zenobius | ima using pastebinit from the repos | 06:32 |
| posingaspopular | np cumulus | 06:33 |
| posingaspopular | enjoy your kubuntu install | 06:33 |
| sub[t]rnl | http://subtrnl.homelinux.com/convert.desktop | 06:33 |
| sub[t]rnl | real handy if you like to burn dvd's | 06:33 |
| cumulus | I'll enjoy even more my sound :D | 06:33 |
| posingaspopular | ardchoille: in konsole? i tried it and that that worked | 06:33 |
| ardchoille | posingaspopular: Tried what? | 06:34 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: http://pastebin.ca/824906 | 06:35 |
| ardchoille | sub[t]rnl: Did you write that yourself? | 06:36 |
| sub[t]rnl | negative | 06:36 |
| sub[t]rnl | not sure where it came from, I've had it for a while | 06:36 |
| * sub[t]rnl sucks on his teeth | 06:37 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: pastebin.ca won't open | 06:37 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: ahh ctrl shift n just made me a new console session ....very odd | 06:37 |
| Ose | Amarok keeps crashing the moment I load it (Only after I added my large collection) | 06:37 |
| zenobius | ose: proly some file is not standard format | 06:37 |
| zenobius | ose : which may be causing it to trip over | 06:38 |
| zenobius | ose: just awild guess | 06:38 |
| Ose | zenobius: It's handled these before. I added them all, had it organize them, and moved them. Then changed the collection directory and.. This. | 06:38 |
| zenobius | ose: not sure, im very keen on listen | 06:39 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: You have ServiceTypes=inode/directory so that should only work on directories | 06:39 |
| zenobius | this is what i want | 06:39 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: but tit doesnt even do that | 06:39 |
| Ose | zenobius: Hmm. I'll try to get foobarclone working again. Never liked it much, anyway. | 06:39 |
| zenobius | ose: i just like using folders to organise my stuff, rather tahn double handling with itunes style dbase and metadata tags | 06:40 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: So it doesn't show up when you right click a directory? | 06:40 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: npe | 06:40 |
| zenobius | oddly, it only appears in the right click menu on the tat one file.. | 06:40 |
| Ose | zenobius: I had that, but accidentally partitioned over these. When recovered they all had number-names.. Thankfully my ID3 tags allowed me to resort them. | 06:40 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: here is the servicemenu for my ffmpeg too,, same problems | 06:41 |
| zenobius | http://paste.stgraber.org/ | 06:41 |
| zenobius | gah | 06:41 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: http://pastebin.ca/824911 | 06:41 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: Try taking out the submenu instruction and try.. some service menu items don't play well with X-KDE-Submenu=blah | 06:42 |
| zenobius | okies | 06:42 |
| Xbehave | emerald came with no themes :( | 06:43 |
| zenobius | Xbehave: its in another package mon | 06:43 |
| zenobius | Xbehave: most proly emerald-themes | 06:43 |
| zenobius | Xbehave: can grab heaps more from gnome-look.org or kdelook.org | 06:44 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: removing that submenu bit didnt changes things | 06:44 |
| Xbehave | in gutsy there is no emerald-themes | 06:45 |
| zenobius | the submenu did work when i right click on the .desktop file but now that i have removed the submenu definition line, as expected the submenu is not there anymore, and the two subitems are now on the top level action tier | 06:46 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: Try adding this line just above the Submenu line: X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel | 06:46 |
| zenobius | but this only occurs on the desktop file that defnies the entry for encfs | 06:46 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: iirc, if you use Submenu you have to also use X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel | 06:46 |
| zenobius | still nothing | 06:48 |
| ardchoille | :( | 06:48 |
| zenobius | any packages i might have missed maybe? | 06:48 |
| zenobius | this was a gnome desktop to start with then i apt-get install kdedesktop | 06:49 |
| ardchoille | Not if your other service menus work | 06:49 |
| intelikey | !emerald | 06:49 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about emerald - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 06:49 |
| zenobius | none of my customs ones do | 06:49 |
| posingaspopular | ardchoille: i was refering to alt+shift+n for konsole | 06:49 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: Wait, you installed kdedesktop and not kubuntu-desktop? | 06:49 |
| intelikey | !theme | 06:49 |
| ubotu | Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy | 06:49 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: mmmm maybe it needs to go in the dolphin folder too? | 06:49 |
| ardchoille | posingaspopular: only ctrl+alt+n works here.. weird | 06:50 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: Are you using dolphin? | 06:50 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: i used the all encompassing meta package | 06:50 |
| sub[t]rnl | !info emerald-themes | 06:50 |
| ubotu | Package emerald-themes does not exist in gutsy | 06:50 |
| sub[t]rnl | !find emerald-themes | 06:50 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: That was kubuntu-desktop | 06:50 |
| ubotu | Package/file emerald-themes does not exist in gutsy | 06:50 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: just konqueror at the momento | 06:50 |
| stdin | sub[t]rnl: it's not in ubuntu, you have to get it via svn | 06:50 |
| sub[t]rnl | hrm, well its in my repo's | 06:50 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: so im good with packages and all | 06:50 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: What is the path to your custom service menus? | 06:51 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: /home/zenobius/.kde/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/ | 06:51 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: in there i have two files, ffmpeg-convert.desktop & 57086-encfs.desktop | 06:52 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: That's not the correct path, they should be in /home/zenobius/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus you've left out the "share" | 06:52 |
| cloneyin | i have 4gb of memory installed, does ati radeon X800 256M accumulating my memory? | 06:52 |
| zenobius | ardchoille: well... this maybe easier than i thought | 06:53 |
| ardchoille | cloneyin: It should be using the memory on the vid card itself | 06:53 |
| cloneyin | damn about 1gb? | 06:53 |
| ardchoille | cloneyin: That's the point of drivers, to take the load off the CPU | 06:53 |
| cloneyin | is htop just new? | 06:53 |
| zenobius | no | 06:53 |
| zenobius | been round loooong time | 06:53 |
| cloneyin | i remember top is what I use | 06:53 |
| cloneyin | really | 06:53 |
| romunov | i've installed compiz and open office is causing "problems" :/ | 06:53 |
| zenobius | yurp | 06:53 |
| cloneyin | i like htop better than top | 06:54 |
| romunov | has anyone had any experience with compiz/emerald? | 06:54 |
| zenobius | i use screen then i run jnettop and htop and bmon | 06:54 |
| cloneyin | not I should use this | 06:54 |
| cloneyin | if i have 16-way, it will show 16 procs,right? | 06:54 |
| XceII | what is jnettop | 06:54 |
| zenobius | i use screen becuase those others are run on remote server, i only wnat to ssh once | 06:54 |
| ardchoille | !compiz | romunov | 06:54 |
| ubotu | romunov: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion | 06:54 |
| zenobius | its like htop but for net traffic | 06:54 |
| cloneyin | now quad-core isout | 06:54 |
| cloneyin | it shoudl show 32 procs | 06:55 |
| XceII | ah think ill take a look/ tx | 06:55 |
| cloneyin | Xcell, looking | 06:56 |
| cloneyin | actually fetching it from the server now | 06:56 |
| XceII | me 2 | 06:56 |
| intelikey | cloneyin the memory usage is probably not what you think. actual used memory free | grep -- -/+ | cut -b20-30 | 06:56 |

| zenobius | sudo jnettop -i eth0 | 06:57 |
| cloneyin | ok | 06:57 |
| cloneyin | let me try that | 06:57 |
| zenobius | i like cli for monitoring apps that also feed out data logs i can use with timeplot from mit | 06:57 |
| cloneyin | guys, jnettop is kool | 06:57 |
| cloneyin | thanks zenobius | 06:58 |
| ardchoille | Now you got me interested in jnettop | 06:58 |
| cloneyin | does red hat distro or fedora or centos or even suse have this utility? | 06:58 |
| zenobius | if your suing it on remote machines, aka via ssh...have a look at using screen...its like workspaces for the cli without having to login mulitple times | 06:58 |
| zenobius | using* | 06:58 |
| XceII | Now thats cool. | 06:59 |
| cloneyin | yeah! | 06:59 |
| ardchoille | cloneyin: Most likely | 06:59 |
| cloneyin | damn, does not even know this | 06:59 |
| cloneyin | I am getting into linux | 06:59 |
| zenobius | jnettop has been round since warty i think | 06:59 |
| XceII | thx Z | 06:59 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: screen+irssi+mutt+elinks+mc rocks | 06:59 |

| cloneyin | so now i am trying to learn openmpi | 07:00 |
| zenobius | if anyone like rtorrent, and wants a script to read the session data into a status html page, then rtorstats is the way to go | 07:00 |
| cloneyin | well we sell HPC systems | 07:00 |
| cloneyin | and univ and gov usually the biggest customer | 07:01 |
| cloneyin | so I learned linapck,HPLbenchmark | 07:01 |
| cloneyin | gaussian | 07:01 |
| zenobius | bill has xbox, so even if weindows goes under.... | 07:01 |
| lufthanza | can anyone help me with flash in konqueror? | 07:01 |
| cloneyin | charmm | 07:01 |
| cloneyin | and all the good benchmarks | 07:01 |
| XceII | Dont forget the key loggers on the govs stuff | 07:01 |
| cloneyin | yeah | 07:01 |
| ardchoille | XceII: lol | 07:01 |
| cloneyin | well my job is to make sure the system runs those | 07:01 |
| zenobius | lufthanza: have you installed any flash player yet? | 07:01 |
| cloneyin | big problems are ths amd architectures and bios | 07:02 |
| lufthanza | zenobius: I installed flashplayer manually, and it runs in firefox | 07:02 |
| zenobius | lufthanza: ok, at this point you want to open the config for konqueror | 07:02 |
| intelikey | does gparted do ntfs ? i mean can you create ntfs with it ? | 07:02 |
| cloneyin | i did flash intallation manually through firefox laso | 07:02 |
| zenobius | intelikey: you would not want to count on it | 07:02 |
| zenobius | lufthanza: then got tplugins | 07:03 |
| lufthanza | problem is, in konqueror, nsplugin will crash and burn when it comes into contact with swf content | 07:03 |
| intelikey | zenobius but it can make ntfs ? | 07:03 |
| zenobius | lufthanza: and click the 'scan for plugins' button | 07:03 |
| cloneyin | amd architecture for HPC so far, the manufacturer implimentations are two so far | 07:03 |
| zenobius | intelikey: proly, but i think you will want ntfs-3g package | 07:03 |
| cloneyin | either ladder design or cross design | 07:03 |
| * LimCore bitchalps kde for making annoying sounds | 07:03 |
| cloneyin | and bios is hard to map the nodes and the apic support | 07:04 |
| zenobius | lufthanza: oh, sorry my ability ends here | 07:04 |
| lufthanza | zenobius: well, thanks anyway | 07:04 |
| cloneyin | so sometimes, when i run linpack, it only assign jobs to certain nodes | 07:04 |
| cloneyin | then customer complains | 07:04 |
| cloneyin | so ..... | 07:04 |
| XceII | eek | 07:04 |

| lufthanza | flash spits out this error when trying to load stuff in konqueror: "Adobe Flash Player: gtk_clipboard_get(GDK_SELECTION_PRIMARY); failed. Trying to call gtk_init(0,0);" | 07:07 |
| cloneyin | you can configure it with quad-cores, highest speed available ,4 Gb modules per slot total of 256, SAS and infiniband | 07:08 |

| lufthanza | is there a way to pull an older version of a package from apt? or can you only get the newest version? | 07:14 |
| cloneyin | which is the best linux utility to monitor the io of hard drives? | 07:14 |
| cloneyin | the b/w actually | 07:15 |
| stdin | lufthanza: "sudo apt-get install <package>=version" | 07:15 |
| LimCore | cloneyin: well xmon something works | 07:15 |
| intelikey | lufthanza you can specify the version in the name | 07:15 |
| lufthanza | stdin: thanks | 07:15 |
| LimCore | or was it xos | 07:15 |
| LimCore | xosview? | 07:15 |
| cloneyin | let me check | 07:15 |

| cloneyin | thanks LimCore | 07:15 |
| * stdin waves back to intelikey | 07:15 |
| cloneyin | thanks ardchoille | 07:15 |
| LimCore | cloneyin: that app is primitive; but u can also check the sources | 07:15 |
| cloneyin | thanks LimCore | 07:16 |
| lufthanza | stdin: how do I list the available package versions? | 07:17 |
| Xbehave | compiz-fusion isnt using my super key shortcuts, any ideas how to fix this| | 07:17 |
| stdin | lufthanza: you can have a look at "apt-cache policy <package>" but that only shows versions from different repositories. other than that you'll just have to look in the archive (http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu ) | 07:18 |
| ardchoille | cloneyin: http://img520.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gkrellmdz8.png | 07:18 |

| XceII | not me fsckr.lll | 07:26 |
| XceII | lol | 07:26 |
| cloneyin | oh fsckr, goodnight | 07:27 |
| cloneyin | sorry about that | 07:27 |
| cloneyin | I like the timeplot though | 07:27 |
| zenobius | just need to start sorting out some cronjobs that output compatibale data logs | 07:27 |
| ardchoille | zenobius: You need to have a website and put all your tips & tricks there | 07:27 |
| posingaspopular | how do I remove the chan. topic from the top of konversation? | 07:27 |
| XceII | I vote 4 that. | 07:27 |
| ardchoille | posingaspopular: drag it up | 07:28 |
| ardchoille | I only know that because I did it accidentally once, lol | 07:28 |
| zenobius | ahh it drags up to the last line then 'resists' till about 10px from the line | 07:29 |
| zenobius | re: chan topic in knoversation | 07:29 |
| ardchoille | yeah | 07:29 |
| zenobius | neat | 07:29 |
| zenobius | timeplot with kdewebdesktop would be the way to go i think | 07:30 |
| zenobius | as an alternative to grellkrem... | 07:31 |
| zenobius | not as nice on cpu though | 07:31 |
| ardchoille | The thing I like about gkrellm is I rarely see my desktop, too many windows open, and you can drag gkrellm around | 07:32 |
| zenobius | yeah lightwieght impact is the highest priority | 07:32 |
| zenobius | nothing like monitoring the weight of an ant whilst standing on the scales | 07:33 |
| intelikey | speaking of. how to get thermal to work on a pentium coper mine ? | 07:33 |
| ardchoille | hehe | 07:33 |
| cloneyin | trying to install real player and it outputs to this | 07:34 |

| intelikey | cloneyin the core temp info. the kenrel module "thermal" is inserted but the info is not in /proc | 07:35 |

| unix_infidel | can anyone point me to the path of least resistance for using 2 screens with an ATI card without having to setup ATI drivers? | 07:36 |
| intelikey | hmm looks like acpi is the missing dir | 07:36 |
| intelikey | i'm going to guess i need acpi support | 07:37 |
| cloneyin | could be | 07:37 |
| zenobius | unix_infidel: it really depends on your video card | 07:38 |
| zenobius | unix_infidel: mine is a ati radeon 9600, rv350 | 07:38 |
| unix_infidel | zenobius: it's an ati card. | 07:38 |

| posingaspopular | hey all im trying to install virtualbox in kubuntu gutsy and I keep getting this error in my /var/log/virtualbox-install.log file about a kernel module not compiling correctly: Makefile:68: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.. Stop. | 08:07 |
| komputernerd | curious .. why virtualbox over vmware? | 08:07 |
| posingaspopular | vmware was a pain to install | 08:07 |
| wesley | wheres compiz fusion to? | 08:07 |
| intelikey | install the kernel source or at least the kernel headers | 08:07 |
| posingaspopular | but then again, so was virtualbox | 08:08 |
| posingaspopular | intelikey: the linux source 2.6.22? | 08:08 |
| intelikey | yep | 08:08 |
| posingaspopular | i already did | 08:08 |
| intelikey | headers ? | 08:08 |
| posingaspopular | that im not so sure | 08:08 |
| posingaspopular | one sec while i check | 08:09 |
| cowlikk | can anyone help me | 08:10 |
| intelikey | build-essential should pull in the linux-headers but it may not. "should is an openion" | 08:10 |
| intelikey | cowlikk yes the restroom is >>> over there | 08:10 |
| sigma | has anyone tried the asus eee pc on kubuntu? | 08:10 |
| komputernerd | really .. i always thought vmware was easy to install | 08:10 |
| komputernerd | well .. unless you were on x86_64 | 08:11 |
| komputernerd | then it was a pain until you knew what you were doing | 08:11 |
| cowlikk | i cant get my resolution to change after installing nvidia driver | 08:11 |
| posingaspopular | yea he headers are installed. build-essential is also installed | 08:11 |
| cowlikk | anyone up for the challenge | 08:11 |
| komputernerd | sudo nvidia-settings | 08:11 |
| wesley | can someone tell me where compiz fusion is ? its not more in adept | 08:11 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular hmmm. you did untar the linux source didn't you ? check in /usr/src and see | 08:12 |
| intelikey | !find compiz | 08:13 |
| ubotu | Found: compiz-bcop, compiz-fusion-plugins-extra, compiz-fusion-plugins-main, libcompizconfig-backend-gconf, libcompizconfig0 (and 15 others) | 08:13 |
| posingaspopular | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48998/ | 08:13 |
| cowlikk | 640x480 is still as high as it will go | 08:14 |
| intelikey | sudo tar -xjf /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.22.tar.bz2 | 08:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | cowlikk➜ tried using nvidia-settings? | 08:17 |
| sub[t]rnl | cowlikk➜ or sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 08:17 |
| sub[t]rnl | be sure to backup your /etc/xorg.conf | 08:17 |
| posingaspopular | okay now it's just kind of sitting in the terminal, not doing anything | 08:17 |
| cowlikk | i still will have the nvidia driver right cause i want the 3d effects is the whole reason behind all this | 08:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | cowlikk➜ yes, the -phigh just sets resolutions in your xorg.conf, it wont query you to change anything else | 08:18 |
| posingaspopular | okay right intelikey, now the file is untarred | 08:18 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular so run the "make" again like it sujested | 08:20 |
| intelikey | sub[t]rnl -phigh doesn't restrict what the command does. it restricts the priority of question the user is trubbled with. | 08:22 |
| intelikey | i.e. -plow will ask the user many questions and -phigh will ask few but both will adjust all the settings. | 08:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | intelikey➜ ah, thanks | 08:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | I thought it simply set resolutions, thats it | 08:23 |
| intelikey | nope. | 08:23 |
| TheFallenOne | i am having some trouble with my wifi on Kubuntu 7.10. I can see the network and connect but i cannot access any web pages. I have a Linksys WMP54G wifi card (chipset RaLink RT2561/RT61) | 08:23 |
| TheFallenOne | can anyone help | 08:23 |
| posingaspopular | well... Makefile:68: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.. Stop. | 08:24 |
| TheFallenOne | I have taken some screen shots of the browser and ifconfig as well as the interfaces file | 08:24 |
| TheFallenOne | to help | 08:24 |
| posingaspopular | TheFallenOne: what have you done after you connect? | 08:24 |
| posingaspopular | just ifconfig? | 08:24 |
| posingaspopular | try 'sudo dhclient' | 08:24 |
| TheFallenOne | ok | 08:24 |
| posingaspopular | that's usually what i do when im having connection issues | 08:24 |
| cowlikk | still cant get higher than 640x480 | 08:25 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular hmmm try telling it the dir you unpacked in ? but i thought that /usr/src was about as default as you could get in linux.... you might look more closely at the output and make sure that something else is not failing first i have seen that happen a few times. with not so well written makefiles | 08:26 |
| ActionParsnip | hi all | 08:26 |

| TheFallenOne | hey! ActionParsnip | 08:28 |
| ActionParsnip | hey TheFallenOne | 08:28 |
| intelikey | if i want to delete the files in a dir that is too full, what would be the "easy way" ? | 08:30 |
| AzAel | heres one..... i just aquired one of those dell usb hub keyboards however my usb key is ignored when i plug it in. lsusb lists the device but fstab -l does not | 08:30 |
| posingaspopular | hmm intelikey, you're talking above my pay grade ;p | 08:30 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, do you want to delete the entire folder? | 08:30 |
| posingaspopular | rf the directory i think | 08:31 |
| sub[t]rnl | rm -r dir/ will remove the directory and all the files in it. | 08:31 |
| posingaspopular | but I that's a dangerous command | 08:31 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip no just the normal files not subdirs | 08:31 |
| intelikey | sub[t]rnl not subdirs | 08:31 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, you can use sudo rm <folder name> | 08:31 |
| cowlikk | maybee i need to restart | 08:31 |
| cowlikk | i pasted it | 08:32 |
| intelikey | if it wasn't to full i'd just use rm /path/* | 08:32 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, it wil remove the files and leave the folder structure | 08:32 |
| AzAel | so is dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/hda.....dangerous command that is | 08:32 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip no it's too full | 08:32 |
| posingaspopular | okay hmmm | 08:32 |
| intelikey | bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long | 08:32 |
| posingaspopular | im going to try just rebooting and see if that changes my VM in any way, shape or form | 08:32 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, you could use sudo rm -rf <folder>; mkdir <folder> | 08:32 |
| intelikey | AzAel not if you intend to wipe the hard drive | 08:32 |
| AzAel | lol | 08:33 |
| sub[t]rnl | intelikey➜ rm -r removes subdirectories too | 08:33 |
| TheFallenOne | ok i'm still having the wifi issues. i've tried adding auto wlan0 to the interfaces and restarting but no go. | 08:33 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, remove, recursive and force. it will also remove the folder | 08:33 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip that would lose the subdirs and their content | 08:33 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, so recreate afterwards | 08:33 |
| TheFallenOne | makes no since why i can connect to the router with 80% siganl but can't get to the web | 08:33 |
| AzAel | intelikey: the poor kid that wanted to wipe his usbkey and wiped his hdd | 08:33 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, you could always use konqueror | 08:33 |
| TheFallenOne | my buddy right next to me is on his laptop and accessing the net through wifi just fine (windows xp for him) | 08:34 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip not desirable. the content of the subdirs stays. | 08:34 |
| ardchoille | AzAel: ouch! | 08:34 |
| TheFallenOne | no firewalls or any security on router so i'm stumped | 08:34 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, so you want to keep the folders but not the files? | 08:34 |
| AzAel | sda, sdb.....whatever LOL | 08:34 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip that's what i first specified | 08:34 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, just clarifying. rm -r * should be fine. you can always create a seperate folder and use touch to create some files | 08:35 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, then try the command | 08:35 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, ;) | 08:35 |
| AzAel | anyways how can i mount a usb storage device if its not detected by fstab -l | 08:36 |
| AzAel | but detected by lsusb | 08:36 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, what do you get from fdisk -l | 08:36 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip lol create empty files to replace 3g of data no thanks. | 08:37 |
| AzAel | only output relating to internal sata and ide drives | 08:37 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, you misunderstand | 08:37 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, if you create a folder with subfolders and some files in all the folders (create using touch) | 08:37 |
| === fignew` is now known as fignew |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, you can run any commands you like to test | 08:38 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, once you are happy with what is happening you can execute it on the actual folder | 08:38 |
| intelikey | "rm -r * should be fine" will remove data i don't want removed. nothing to misunderstand about that. | 08:38 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, think of it like a test | 08:38 |
| AzAel | intelikey: usbkey automounts when plugged into any other port except for the ones on this KB | 08:39 |
| AzAel | oops | 08:39 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, just a suggestion :) | 08:39 |
| AzAel | that was directed at ActionParsnip | 08:39 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, pastebin your fdisk -l please | 08:40 |
| intelikey | well the easy answer seems to be a loop for Q in /path/* ;do rm $Q ;done in that loop bash is not limited like the rm command to a shortened commandline and it will do what rm /path/* can't. | 08:40 |
| intelikey | if anyone wants to take notes ^ | 08:41 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49000/ | 08:42 |
| AzAel | nice number hehehe | 08:42 |
| intelikey | two pata disks ? | 08:44 |
| AzAel | 1xpata 1xsata | 08:44 |
| intelikey | hmmm and scsi emulation | 08:44 |
| AzAel | i believe my problem has to do with the dell usb hub keyboard :( | 08:45 |
| intelikey | what does unpluging and repluging the usb drive say in dmesg ? | 08:45 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, yeah i'd go with that too | 08:45 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, what model is the keyboard | 08:45 |
| posingaspopular | hmm im still getting this error: Makefile:68: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.. Stop. | 08:46 |
| posingaspopular | how would i run Make again? | 08:47 |
| ActionParsnip | posingaspopular, sudo apt-get install kernel-source | 08:47 |
| intelikey | how did you run it that time ? | 08:47 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: sk-8135 and this is in dmesg ->>> 1210.322805] usb 2-1.2: rejected 1 configuration due to insufficient available bus power | 08:47 |

| intelikey | AzAel ah ha. you is correct | 08:48 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, do you have it plugged in via usb or PS/2? | 08:48 |
| intelikey | AzAel system says 'no sir' at the new usb device. | 08:48 |
| posingaspopular | sudo aptitute install virtualbox-> setup VM with iso for hardy-> launch vm-> get error telling me that the vm module isn't compiled.-> nano /var/log/vbox-install.log | 08:49 |
| posingaspopular | which gives me that error | 08:49 |
| intelikey | sudo dpkg --configure -a | 08:50 |
| intelikey | should rerun it then | 08:50 |
| posingaspopular | rerun what now? | 08:50 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: kb is plugged into usb sunshine......usbkey plugged into kb.....and i can remember how to tail dmesg properly | 08:51 |
| posingaspopular | kernel source and linux-headers-2.6.12-10 as packages are not found when i try to apt-get them | 08:51 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, cat /proc/bus/input/devices <- can we have a paste of that with the key in and out | 08:51 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular the preinst or postinst script in /var/lib/dpbk/info/ for that package is running the make on the software. WOW 2.6.12 ??? | 08:52 |
| intelikey | is that a typo ? | 08:52 |

| intelikey | let me look | 08:57 |
| cowlikk | can someone help me with when i log out and log back in i just get a peach screen and nothing ever loads. i have to reboot | 08:58 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, there appears to be 2 entries for the keyboard which is weird | 08:58 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, lines 34 to 52 | 08:58 |
| posingaspopular | E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.21 | 08:59 |
| posingaspopular | still not working | 08:59 |
| intelikey | AzAel if possable plug the drive into another port dirrectly on the box. | 08:59 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip yea i saw that | 08:59 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular when in doubt apt-cache search linux-headers | 09:00 |
| AzAel | intelikey: the challenge is to get the usb key working on the builtin ports on the kb, specificly the reason why i got this particular keyboard | 09:00 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, it works in a normal usb port (not on the keyboard). Ive got him plugging it into another system to see if its the keyboard thats faulty | 09:00 |
| AzAel | [ 3407.577619] usb 2-1.3: rejected 1 configuration due to insufficient available bus power................There is my problem | 09:01 |
| intelikey | AzAel ok. then you'll have to boost the power to the keyboard | 09:01 |
| AzAel | not enough cheese in the tube | 09:01 |
| intelikey | right | 09:01 |
| posingaspopular | okay well it seems that i already havet he linux-headers-2.6.22-14 installed | 09:01 |
| ActionParsnip | intelikey, ooh do tell how | 09:01 |
| * ActionParsnip listens intently | 09:01 |
| posingaspopular | i just have no idea what im supposed to be doing to fix this VM | 09:01 |
| intelikey | ActionParsnip i didn't say i could do that. but without boosting the power that isn't going to work. | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, how does the keyboard connect to the system? Is there a usb hub involved? | 09:03 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular normally the error messages "when not viewed as criptic" are very helpful in trubbleshooting a problem. | 09:03 |
| intelikey | a powered hub would be good. but i don't recall ever seeing one. | 09:04 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular do a uname -r for me please | 09:04 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, do you have a powered usb hub? | 09:05 |
| posingaspopular | ummm sure if you can give the exact command. im wayy in over my head here ;p | 09:05 |
| intelikey | uname -r | 09:06 |
| intelikey | to list the running kernel version | 09:06 |
| intelikey | to make sure it matches 2.6.22-14 | 09:06 |
| AzAel | this bizarre i tried a differnt usb storage device and it didnt work however on one occasion it picked it up and mounted it automagicly | 09:07 |
| intelikey | well 2.6.22-14* to be exact | 09:07 |
| intelikey | AzAel it would every time if the power lever was a little higher at the port your are plugging into | 09:07 |
| posingaspopular | 2.6.17-12-generic | 09:08 |
| posingaspopular | which doesn't match ;/ | 09:08 |
| intelikey | posingaspopular there you go and that's where all your problem has been | 09:08 |
| intelikey | you need the 2.6.17-12 headers | 09:08 |
| posingaspopular | bah | 09:08 |
| intelikey | and possably the source | 09:09 |
| ActionParsnip | posingaspopular, id sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 09:09 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: intelikey: connections attempted, kb plugged into onboard usb, unpowered usb hub and alternate usb ports on mobo only had success once with an alternate storage device | 09:09 |
| posingaspopular | upgrade? im already in gutsy | 09:09 |
| ActionParsnip | posingaspopular, it'll upgrade individual packages from the sources | 09:10 |
| intelikey | upgrade for the newer kernel version, yes. and changing kernels will require a reboot too. | 09:10 |
| intelikey | or install the kernel headers for that kernel and go | 09:10 |
| cowlikk | why when i log out and back in it wont load anything but a peach color screen | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, unpowered usb hub will not give juice to your keyboard which it needs | 09:11 |
| intelikey | cowlikk drop to a console and see what's hanging it up | 09:11 |
| cowlikk | :-D im not that smart intelikey | 09:12 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: only tried it because i had forgotten id lost the powersupply | 09:12 |
| posingaspopular | hmm how do i get the source and headers for 2.6.17-12 | 09:12 |
| cowlikk | this is like my first 5 hours on linux | 09:12 |
| AzAel | having fun yet cowlikk?? | 09:12 |
| cowlikk | and it aint been a good 5 hours | 09:13 |
| cowlikk | lots of freakin thinking | 09:13 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, so got a different usb key to work or was it a hdd with external power? | 09:13 |
| cowlikk | and typing | 09:13 |
| cowlikk | my fingers are sore | 09:13 |
| ActionParsnip | cowlikk, indeed for now. soon it will work beautifully :) | 09:13 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: cheap generic mp3 player | 09:13 |
| cowlikk | i know that is why i keep at it | 09:13 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, with batteries in ? | 09:14 |
| AzAel | cowlikk: you will look back on it fondly one day | 09:14 |
| cowlikk | i used to think i was very good with computers.... well thats windows i guess | 09:14 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: no batteries | 09:14 |
| intelikey | cowlikk ok let me explain how to switch tty's in linux first of all the default tty for the xserver is tty7 now to switch ttys you press ctrl+alt+f# where the # is the tty number you want. normally 1 through 6 are login tty's you can login and run ps ax the last few lines of info will be the last processes to start up. one will be your login shell. but just above that should be the last thing that x st | 09:14 |
| posingaspopular | cowlikk: that's a whole different ballgame. ;p | 09:14 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, well it will have some form of power source | 09:14 |
| cowlikk | yeah im learning that | 09:14 |
| AzAel | only worked temporarily | 09:15 |
| cowlikk | so how do i figure out why it wont log back in after loging out | 09:15 |
| === diego is now known as maria |
| posingaspopular | i wish i knew how to install those header files/source :( | 09:15 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, id borrow or steal a powered usb hub and try that. it should work from your onboard though which is weird | 09:15 |
| ActionParsnip | posingaspopular, get the updates | 09:15 |
| intelikey | cowlikk you find what is hanging it and ask in here probably. | 09:15 |
| TheFallenOne | i think i've run out of options | 09:15 |
| cowlikk | how do i find what is hanging it though | 09:16 |
| AzAel | the usb key does work onboard it also works in the unpowered usb hub | 09:16 |
| ActionParsnip | TheFallenOne, get googling sir | 09:16 |
| posingaspopular | i did | 09:16 |
| intelikey | cowlikk read my long post again ^ | 09:16 |
| cowlikk | ahh it sliped by me thanks | 09:16 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, does the keyboard work wih the usb key when its plugged into the onboard? | 09:16 |
| maria | chat spain¿ | 09:17 |
| TheFallenOne | lol the only thing else i know to do that was suggested was dowloading seamonkey drivers but since i can't put a lan line on that box anytime soon i can't just update it and use the packages | 09:17 |
| AzAel | keyboard always works | 09:17 |
| TheFallenOne | and manual install is a killer with dependencies | 09:17 |
| TheFallenOne | so i guess i'll just wait till i can get a hard line on it | 09:17 |
| AzAel | where ever i plug it | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, indeed. but thats not the issue right now | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, is the kb plugged into the usb hub? | 09:18 |
| AzAel | just cant get a usb storage device to work off the kb | 09:18 |
| AzAel | ActionParsnip: now...no only plugged it in there to test | 09:18 |
| AzAel | hrmmmm | 09:18 |
| TheFallenOne | well thanks for everyones help. later. | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, ok let me google a bit. | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, got anything else usb? | 09:20 |
| ActionParsnip | AzAel, like a bluetooth dongle etc | 09:20 |
| intelikey | AzAel it's like the little boy sitting on the sidewalk and sturing in a pile of dung, when the sargent walked by and asked him. "son what are you doing?" he said "im making a privet" the sargent asked "why don't you make a sargent?" he replied "cause i don't have enough shit for that" that's the problem you are having with the key. not enough .... | 09:20 |
| posingaspopular | ActionParsnip: what do i do after i get the updates/ | 09:20 |
| ActionParsnip | posingaspopular, reboot is a good choice | 09:21 |
| intelikey | no | 09:22 |
| intelikey | after the upgrade not the update | 09:22 |
| posingaspopular | after i sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade? | 09:22 |
| intelikey | yes after both | 09:22 |
| intelikey | or should i say when you have dont both of them. | 09:22 |

| ActionParsnip | Oleander, easiest way is to leave the space unpartitioned at install time | 12:28 |
| podr0znik | or let me rephrase my question | 12:29 |
| Oleander | i tried doing it the manual way but someone on here suggested doing it the guided way. | 12:30 |
| podr0znik | after a clean install, there are immediately 76 updated packages available | 12:30 |
| podr0znik | I guess it should be normally safe to follow those suggestions and to install them? | 12:30 |
| Oleander | ActionParsnip: what do u recommend berly or compiz? | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Oleander, guided is best but if the space is unpartitioned the installer will see it and offer to use it for the system drives | 12:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Oleander, I use beryl personally but others prefer compiz | 12:32 |
| ActionParsnip | podr0znik, I'd get them | 12:32 |
| podr0znik | ActionParsnip, ok, but yesterday evening my system completely crashed after doing so (not booting anymore, some error about "Kernel panic") | 12:33 |

| podr0znik | well, I must admit that usually I don't look at that | 12:42 |
| podr0znik | when Adept suggest an update, I just execute it | 12:42 |
| podr0znik | the same yesterday evening, but then it didn't boot anymore and was complaining about Kernel panic, that root couldn't mounted or sth like that | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip | sth? | 12:43 |
| podr0znik | I didn't write down the complete error | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | iexecute the updates too | 12:43 |
| podr0znik | then I have no idea what I'm doing wrong | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | hmm | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | let me google | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | what kernel you on at the moment? | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | uname -r | 12:44 |
| podr0znik | 2.6.22-14-generic | 12:45 |
| podr0znik | the one supplied with 7.10 | 12:45 |
| podr0znik | 'cause I did clean install | 12:45 |
| podr0znik | and no updates yet | 12:45 |
| TimS | Anyone here use AcidRip? It always gives me a file where the audio is arround 20ms out from the video, how could I fix this? | 12:46 |

| akram | how to install compiz? | 12:47 |
| Stevethepirate | !compiz | 12:47 |
| ubotu | Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion | 12:47 |
| akram | thx^ | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | podr0znik, you could try updating just the kernel (?) | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | podr0znik, or update individual things and reboot inbetween | 12:50 |
| ActionParsnip | podr0znik, see whats making it die | 12:50 |

| FatalError | etfb, isn't it usually just ctrl+w ? | 13:05 |
| posingaspopular | ctrl+w closes the tab... | 13:05 |
| Pete_^ | etfb: Not sure why its changed, but if I hit ctrl-w with only one tab open, it quits | 13:05 |
| Pete_^ | ctrl-w quits the last one too. | 13:05 |
| Pete_^ | (With Konqueror I'm used to ctrl-q for quit, and ctrl-w to close tabs) | 13:06 |
| Stevethepirate | lol | 13:06 |
| etfb | Pete_^: I hated that option, so I switched it off | 13:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Pete_^, thats cos you closed ALL thetabs. It does it on mine too | 13:08 |
| lucky_lucas | Hi any qt4 libs is needed for a proper kubuntu ? | 13:13 |
| lucky_lucas | Or can I remove libqt4-core without any trouble | 13:13 |
| Jucato | lucky_lucas: I think only the Kubuntu Hardware Database and/or Speedcrunch depend on qt4 | 13:14 |
| lucky_lucas | Jucato: arf I don't want to mess up the current default install of qt4 | 13:15 |
| ActionParsnip | lucky_lucas, kde4 uses it too :D | 13:15 |
| moofoo | hello, i've configured a luks with cryptosetup, but /etc/init.d/cryptdisks does not ask for a password on startup (i tried the patch from 62751 though I'm running gutsy but this still don't help) any idea why this does not work? one remark: the drive is attached via usb... and manually starting cryptdisks from console later on works fine | 13:15 |
| Jucato | ActionParsnip: but that hardly qualifies as "proper Kubuntu" :D | 13:15 |
| lucky_lucas | I want to use the qt-copy for building kde4 from svn | 13:15 |
| Jucato | lucky_lucas: sure no problem w/ that | 13:16 |
| Jucato | lucky_lucas: following the guide on techbase.kde.org, it won't mess w/ any system installed packages (qt3/4 or kde3)... but using qt-copy would be redundant | 13:16 |
| lucky_lucas | Yes but while building kdesdk, cmake take my libqtxml from /usr/lib instead of home kde-devel qt-copy | 13:16 |
| lucky_lucas | Jucato: the guide on techbase isn't that up to date about the mess about qt4 | 13:17 |
| Jucato | lucky_lucas: which mess? | 13:17 |
| lucky_lucas | Cmake would take the unpatched packages version of qt4 instead of using qt-copy | 13:18 |
| Jucato | lucky_lucas: theoretically, kde4 should be able to build with no problem using a vanilla qt 4.3.2... if it doesn't, that's a major bug. so it really shouldn't matter which qt4 you use | 13:18 |
| Jucato | hm... that's strange... | 13:18 |
| tatters | I have lost my toolbar somehow ,,what do I need to type in" run " to bring up the preferences so I can un-check auto hide | 13:19 |
| Jucato | tatters: kcontrol | 13:19 |
| Jucato | then go to Desktop -> Panels | 13:19 |
| lucky_lucas | my $qtdir env points to home kde-devel but while building kdesdk, cmake complains about /usr/whatever libqtxml | 13:19 |
| Jucato | if by "toolbar" you mean "panel" | 13:19 |
| lucky_lucas | instead of the qt-copy one | 13:20 |
| tatters | k,thnx , yes it the panel that contains kmenu and systray | 13:20 |
| Jucato | tatters: yep. then kcontrol it is | 13:21 |
| Jucato | lucky_lucas: hm... strange indeed... can you try asking in #kde4-devel about this? | 13:21 |
| tatters | Jucato: thans that did the trick | 13:21 |
| lucky_lucas | Ok it's for sure a mess in my env since i cleaned qt several time etc... but I will go there | 13:22 |
| Jucato | lucky_lucas: it might also be specific to kdesdk only | 13:22 |
| Jucato | hm... gtg... | 13:22 |
| lucky_lucas | Jucato: runing cmakekde on kdesdk tells me Found Qt-Version 4.3.3 (using /home/kde-devel/qt-copy/bin/qmake) | 13:23 |
| lucky_lucas | It tells me it tries to build /usr/lib/libqtxml.so, but there is no target | 13:24 |
