| burgermann | If I want Kubuntu, do I have to get the CD and reinstall all of Ubuntu or is there some smart .deb package somewhere which can easy my trouble linux-beginner life? | 01:16 |
| apokryphos | heh | 01:17 |
| burgermann | *troubled even | 01:17 |
| apokryphos | burgermann: do you have Ubuntu installed? | 01:17 |
| burgermann | apokryphos, ye :) | 01:17 |
| apokryphos | Then you can just follow the instructions on the site and/or Wiki | 01:18 |
| apokryphos | Pyre: tell burgermann ubukde | 01:18 |
| Pyre | burgermann: https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/InstallingKDE | 01:18 |
| burgermann | oh goody | 01:18 |
| apokryphos | Essentially, you want to do sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 01:18 |
| randabis | hmm...I guess kde doesn't automount stuff? weird | 01:19 |
| burgermann | Ohh that's so sweet it'll beat a whole sugar field | 01:19 |
| apokryphos | haha | 01:19 |
| apokryphos | randabis: I do think it's meant to... | 01:19 |
| randabis | heh I had to mount it myself | 01:20 |
| randabis | perhaps it is a consequence of having both ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop | 01:20 |
| randabis | who knows | 01:20 |
| apokryphos | Can't find my USB key so can't test now; will try to when I can | 01:22 |
| apokryphos | a user on ubuntuforums, though, was really quite happy with the automount I believe, that's why I remember it apparently existing | 01:23 |
| _P_ | randabis: | 01:27 |
| _P_ | kubuntu has automount | 01:27 |
| _P_ | but i had to add a line in fstab | 01:27 |
| _P_ | if you insert a usb key and looks on media:/ | 01:27 |
| _P_ | youll see the remobable device | 01:28 |
| _P_ | but is not usable | 01:28 |
| _P_ | i added a mount /dev/sda1 on my fstab | 01:28 |

| candyban | Although the md5sum is correct and the CD validated correctly, I got an error when configuring apt at the installation procedure | 01:33 |
| candyban | Then it took quite a long time to install (I think it installed all python2.4 packages available on the net ... but okay, I can live with that) ... but when it said it finished installation, I had to manually install xfonts-base and kubuntu-desktop | 01:34 |
| === cartel_ [~cartel@shinobi.thoughtcrime.org.nz] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| candyban | I mean ... If I read the FAQ correctly kubuntu is just ubuntu + kubuntu-desktop (kde) ... one (at least I) would expect that the installation would install kubuntu-desktop by default | 01:35 |
| apokryphos | Well, it obviously should. If it didn't, then there's a problem | 01:36 |
| candyban | Then I installed the gimp and I had to manually create the menu item ... | 01:36 |
| apokryphos | candyban: did you install the RC? | 01:36 |
| candyban | I installed the one on the download page | 01:36 |
| cartel_ | kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage | 01:36 |
| apokryphos | Since those have been tested by quite a few and that problem hasn't come up | 01:36 |
| candyban | hoary | 01:37 |
| cartel_ | it depends on lots of other stuff | 01:37 |
| cartel_ | apt-get install kubuntu-desktop should give you a complete kde | 01:37 |
| apokryphos | cartel_: I think they downloaded kubuntu ISO, however | 01:37 |
| candyban | cartel_: yes, once I installed kubuntu-desktop myself it worked like a charm (and xfonts-base) ... | 01:37 |
| apokryphos | candyban: so not the release candidate? | 01:37 |
| cartel_ | candyban: you must have deselected it on install :) | 01:37 |
| apokryphos | candyban: as in, did you download under the daily section? | 01:38 |
| candyban | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/hoary/rc/kubuntu-hoary-install-i386.iso | 01:38 |
| candyban | cartel_: selecting on install? | 01:38 |
| apokryphos | Yes, that's the RC | 01:38 |
| candyban | cartel_: I could select base system or default ... I chose default | 01:39 |
| apokryphos | I find it hard to believe that the problem is not the users' side when many have installed that successfully | 01:39 |
| apokryphos | *user's | 01:39 |
| candyban | it couldn't configure apt ... perhaps that's what went wrong? | 01:39 |
| cartel_ | candyban: so the installation did not complete successfuly? | 01:39 |
| candyban | cartel_: no | 01:39 |
| apokryphos | candyban: no, it wouldn't stop you having kubuntu-desktop | 01:39 |
| candyban | cartel_: I tried it several times to reconfigure apt from the installation menu ... but it wouldn't fly ... so then I used the cd checker which came up with "all packages ok" or something | 01:40 |
| candyban | cartel_: then I selected the install LILO and reboot options | 01:41 |
| cartel_ | firefox on kubuntu looks fugly | 01:41 |
| cartel_ | in fact any gtk app looks fugly | 01:41 |
| randabis | I'm installing the sims 2 on here :p | 01:41 |
| apokryphos | cartel_: have you got the gtk engine? | 01:41 |
| === randabis likes cedega :p | ||
| cartel_ | and there is no option in kcontrol for gtk shit | 01:41 |
| cartel_ | apokryphos huh? packagename? | 01:41 |
| apokryphos | cartel_: gtk2-engine-gtk-qt | 01:41 |
| Riddell | cartel_: install gtk2-engines-gtk-qt | 01:41 |
| apokryphos | snap | 01:41 |
| Riddell | bingo | 01:42 |
| cartel_ | ok installed | 01:42 |
| apokryphos | Then the option should come up in kcontrol | 01:42 |
| cartel_ | need to do anything else? | 01:42 |
| candyban | apokryphos: I can't imagine I'm the first one ever to have problems with the current kubuntu installation | 01:42 |
| apokryphos | candyban: Well, no-one else has complained, and it's been up for well over a day now | 01:43 |
| cartel_ | cool | 01:43 |
| candyban | apokryphos: btw. What can cause apt not to configure? | 01:43 |
| apokryphos | candyban: is the Internet working properly? | 01:43 |
| candyban | apokryphos: yep | 01:43 |
| chavo | candyban, I installed kubuntu about a week or so ago and had similar problems. | 01:43 |
| cartel_ | ok brb restarting | 01:43 |
| apokryphos | candyban: can you sudo apt-get update? | 01:43 |
| candyban | apokryphos: yes | 01:43 |
| randabis | crap | 01:43 |
| randabis | can't eject lol | 01:44 |
| chavo | I reburned the iso at a much slower speed and it then installed flawlessly | 01:44 |
| apokryphos | candyban: and can you install things? | 01:44 |
| candyban | apokryphos: it's installed now .... I am just a bit disappointed it did not install all that with the installer | 01:44 |
| apokryphos | candyban: erm, out of interest, just how did you install apt? | 01:45 |
| candyban | apokryphos: It was installed ... though the installer (after the stage of installing all packages) said it had to configure apt ... and then at 50% I got a red message saying it failed and gave an option to return to the installation menu so I could select what to do next (e.g. run configure apt again or install lilo, grub, ...) | 01:47 |
| candyban | apokryphos: I md5sum-ed my iso ... and it's fine ... Also the CD consistency checker (or something?) completed successfully ... so I am sure I don't have a corrupted download/scratch/... | 01:48 |

| candyban | kkathman: try smb://ip.of.smb.server/share as lonewolff suggested | 01:51 |
| kkathman | lonewolff, I'll give that a try | 01:51 |
| cartel_ | network folders doesnt work in kubuntu either | 01:51 |
| cartel_ | 'Add network folder' doesnt do anything | 01:51 |

| cartel_ | Riddell: tuesday | 01:52 |
| kkathman | lonewolff, That works great, thanks :) | 01:52 |
| lonewolff | np | 01:52 |
| Riddell | cartel_: Add a Network Folder should work, it launches knetattach | 01:52 |
| candyban | [dt] : hehe ... if that happened I guess I can post it as another "collision" to accelerate cracking of md5 :o) | 01:53 |
| cartel_ | Riddell: not here it doesnt | 01:53 |
| cartel_ | Riddell: network folder -> add network folder | 01:53 |
| cartel_ | Riddel: running knetattach works though | 01:53 |
| candyban | [dt] : Would even be more amazing that that 1 in 1.6e-56 chance would even boot and install something which even remotely looks like ubuntu, don't you think? | 01:54 |

| jeroenvrp | hi evrybody | 01:56 |
| candyban | anyways ... just letting you guys know at least one person still has issues with the current rc | 01:56 |
| jeroenvrp | I'm wondering if I should switch from SuSE to Kubunti | 01:57 |
| jeroenvrp | sorry Kubuntu | 01:57 |
| === lonewolff did and likes it | ||
| jeroenvrp | example: does kubunti have something similar to yast? | 01:57 |
| jeroenvrp | example: does kubuntu have something similar to yast? | 01:58 |
| lonewolff | it has dpkg/apt-get so yes similar | 01:58 |
| cartel_ | yast is a configuration tool | 01:58 |
| candyban | jeroenvrp: I doubt it ... but for package management you have apt | 01:58 |
| lonewolff | yast also lets you install packages | 01:58 |
| jeroenvrp | mm thats a shame | 01:58 |
| candyban | cartel_: IIRC yast can also install/update software packages | 01:59 |
| jeroenvrp | lonewolff: yes I know, but I allready use apt for rpm, so thats not a problem | 01:59 |
| kkathman | jeroenvrp ubuntu (kubuntu is just the KDE for ubuntu) is very similar, but a much easier environment in my opinion than SuSE | 01:59 |
| lonewolff | ah ic | 01:59 |
| kkathman | but then I'm partial to debian's philosophy (on which ubuntu is based I believe) | 01:59 |
| jeroenvrp | so does ubuntu/kubuntu have a graphical configtool? | 01:59 |
| kkathman | jeroenvrp, yes | 02:00 |
| candyban | btw ... is it "normal" for kubuntu that when you "sudo apt-get install gimp" that the kde menu is not updated? | 02:00 |
| === jeroenvrp is terug. | ||
| Riddell | cartel_: nope, gimp should appear in the kmenu under graphics | 02:00 |
| kkathman | candyban - what do you want updated? | 02:00 |
| Riddell | that to candyban | 02:00 |
| kkathman | typically gimp should be in the menu | 02:00 |
| candyban | kkathman: that an entry appears in the menu | 02:01 |
| LeeJunFan | I see there's no mplayer in repos, what the best thing to play wavs from cmdline? artsplay stinks - some wavs it just won't play. | 02:01 |
| kkathman | candyban, yep should be in the kmenu panel | 02:01 |
| apokryphos | LeeJunFan: it's there | 02:01 |
| Riddell | LeeJunFan: kaffeine? | 02:01 |
| candyban | kkathman: It was not there ... I had to manually add it ... | 02:01 |
| Riddell | amarok, juk | 02:01 |
| candyban | perhaps I am missing some additional packages which autoconfigure the kde menu? | 02:02 |
| candyban | just guessing here | 02:02 |
| apokryphos | LeeJunFan: you might want to install the specific one (per the instructions on Restricted formats article); many (including myself) had problems when not installing specific one for comp | 02:02 |
| candyban | LeeJunFan: I'm not sure, but I thought mpg321 could play wav files as well | 02:03 |

| apokryphos | kkathman: alright, all you have to do now is point to /home/user/.mozilla/plugins/ | 03:10 |
| apokryphos | cartel_: hmm, works fine here. | 03:10 |
| cartel_ | hmm | 03:10 |
| === cartel_ wonders if his mirror is out of date | ||
| apokryphos | cartel_: you're not trying to run mozilla-firefox, are you, as a command? | 03:11 |
| apokryphos | Nah, if it downloaded properly then the mirror problem is ruled out... | 03:11 |
| cartel_ | apokryphos: i launch it from k menu | 03:12 |
| cartel_ | eek, it was out of date | 03:13 |
| cartel_ | 266 upgraded, 11 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 03:13 |

| apokryphos | I don't see why that would stop it running, though... | 03:13 |
| cartel_ | ack! | 03:13 |
| === cartel_ hopes this doesnt kill his box | ||
| cartel_ | hmm.. new xorg | 03:14 |
| apokryphos | you don't have to do a full upgrade :) | 03:14 |
| apokryphos | you can update only firefox, if you like. | 03:14 |
| cartel_ | new firefox, oo, | 03:14 |
| cartel_ | new build of kde.. | 03:14 |
| === cartel_ predicts this will get ugly | ||
| apokryphos | hehe | 03:14 |
| cartel_ | i bet the update of xorg kills my xinerama too | 03:14 |
| cartel_ | does ubuntu use python instead of perl a lot? | 03:15 |
| cartel_ | ie, postinst/preinst | 03:15 |
| apokryphos | Generally, I think. IIRC, Mark is a fan of python | 03:17 |
| cartel_ | apokryphos: you are a kubuntu developer? | 03:17 |
| apokryphos | cartel_: nope | 03:17 |
| cartel_ | apokryphos: k | 03:18 |
| cartel_ | apokryphos: kde devel then? | 03:18 |
| apokryphos | nope :P | 03:18 |
| cartel_ | so you just hang out in teh devel chans to look cool? :) | 03:18 |
| apokryphos | cartel_: Heh, nope. To learn. :) | 03:19 |
| randabis | bah, I might have to use mozilla again if this keeps up | 03:28 |
| closure | how do i take a screen shot in here? | 03:30 |
| closure | err KDE | 03:30 |
| closure | in KDE | 03:30 |
| apokryphos | closure: you can use ksnapshot | 03:30 |
| apokryphos | randabis: what now? ;-) | 03:30 |
| closure | thanks | 03:30 |
| closure | is there a gui FTP for K? | 03:32 |
| closure | Kftp or something? | 03:32 |
| randabis | apokryphos: just konqueror being a bitch after using it a while | 03:33 |
| apokryphos | closure: sure. Konqueror :) | 03:33 |
| randabis | it becomes very unresponsive | 03:33 |
| randabis | I have to close it and reopen it | 03:33 |
| apokryphos | ergh | 03:33 |
| randabis | yeah | 03:34 |
| randabis | ergh indeed | 03:34 |
| jsubl2 | install time | 03:34 |
| apokryphos | randabis: recurring problem or problem with latest update? | 03:34 |
| randabis | recurring | 03:35 |
| randabis | it feels like a memory leak or something | 03:36 |
| apokryphos | when it starts freezing up, have you done a top to see if it's eating CPU perhaps? | 03:37 |
| randabis | nah, I should though...hehe | 03:37 |
| randabis | I will next time | 03:37 |
| randabis | the thing is though | 03:38 |
| randabis | only konqueror becomes unresponsive | 03:38 |
| randabis | other programs still work fine | 03:38 |
| closure | apokryphos, i'm speaking something like Bullet Proof FTP | 03:38 |
| apokryphos | closure: bullet proof? | 03:38 |
| closure | for windows | 03:38 |
| closure | like CuteFTP | 03:38 |
| apokryphos | randabis: yeah, it might be worth trying. Perhaps file a bug report if it continues | 03:38 |
| closure | an easy to use FTP gui | 03:39 |
| apokryphos | closure: I don't understand... it is *very* easy to use | 03:39 |
| randabis | you could try the firefox fireftp extension closure | 03:39 |
| apokryphos | it's just like Konqueror file manager | 03:39 |
| closure | how do i use it? | 03:39 |
| closure | ftp://l:p@host? | 03:39 |
| apokryphos | closure: ftp.somedomain.com | 03:39 |
| lonewolff | just goto an ftp site in konqueror and there you go, its like browsing a local filesystem | 03:39 |
| closure | no | 03:40 |
| closure | i want to be able to upload and shit | 03:40 |
| closure | does it do that? | 03:40 |
| apokryphos | if you don't like it another decent K FTP app on the market is KBear | 03:40 |
| apokryphos | closure: course | 03:40 |
| closure | just drag and drop? | 03:40 |
| lonewolff | just drag things over and it uploads | 03:40 |
| apokryphos | precisely | 03:40 |
| closure | strange | 03:40 |
| lonewolff | just like copying files locally | 03:40 |
| closure | ok | 03:40 |
| apokryphos | Check the Handbook for more information | 03:40 |
| closure | well isn't that spiffy | 03:41 |
| apokryphos | Yup, very handy | 03:41 |
| lonewolff | konqueror rocks | 03:41 |
| closure | indeed | 03:43 |
| randabis | konqueror does rock...when it doesn't start acting like crap | 03:44 |
| randabis | :) | 03:44 |
| closure | does IE do that? cause i'm going to feel like an idiot for using clients all these years | 03:44 |
| apokryphos | closure: nope | 03:44 |
| closure | ok | 03:44 |
| cartel_ | i have a hard time telling my devels to develop for konq | 03:44 |
| cartel_ | you know if it works in konq it works in all browsers | 03:44 |
| closure | and i don't suppose you can que with konqueror either can you? | 03:44 |
| randabis | IE = abomination | 03:44 |
| randabis | khtml is a pretty decent implementation | 03:45 |
| randabis | gecko is still more accurate overall I'd say | 03:45 |
| apokryphos | Safari are using it, too :P | 03:45 |
| randabis | yeah | 03:45 |
| apokryphos | closure: que? | 03:45 |
| cartel_ | Safari dont give anything back to khtml.. | 03:45 |
| closure | like que files | 03:45 |
| closure | for uploading | 03:45 |
| closure | from different places | 03:45 |
| apokryphos | Dunno, I guess not. It would probably try to do them all at once, like the File Manager would, I guess. | 03:47 |
| closure | hrm | 03:47 |
| closure | ok | 03:47 |
| closure | well do you know of an ftp client that would support htat? | 03:47 |
| apokryphos | closure: KBear is your best bet, but I haven't used it in some time. | 03:48 |
| closure | hrm | 03:49 |
| closure | ok | 03:49 |

| apokryphos | closure: though, I should have noted that if you copy and paste them -- in one swoop -- from konqueror to ftp up then it will do them one after the other | 03:53 |

| closure | yeah but that's not quite what i'm looking for | 03:57 |
| closure | hrm | 03:59 |
| closure | how do i completely remove gnome from ubuntu now? | 04:00 |
| randabis | I'd use deborphan | 04:00 |
| randabis | that would be the easiest way probably | 04:00 |
| closure | ok | 04:01 |
| closure | can you take me through the steps? | 04:01 |
| closure | i'm quite a know nothing with this linux stuff as of yet | 04:01 |
| lonewolff | would sudo apt-get remove gnome* not suffice (just a guess btw) | 04:01 |
| closure | that will remove apps too that are used in K though won't it? | 04:02 |
| randabis | err | 04:03 |
| randabis | I think I meant debfoster | 04:03 |
| randabis | not deborphan | 04:03 |
| closure | ok | 04:03 |
| closure | do i just do "debfoster" at a command line? | 04:03 |
| randabis | do "sudo debfoster -q" to assume yes to all questions. Then edit the /var/lib/debfosterkeepers and remove the line ubuntu-desktop and other lines with packages you want to remove. Only packages that don't depend on other packages are listed so the list won't be very long unless you broke some meta-package like kubuntu-desktop. | 04:06 |
| randabis | then do sudo debfoster | 04:06 |
| randabis | it will ask you what you want to do with ubuntu-desktop, choose purge | 04:07 |

| closure | you're saying debfoster is a method you've never tried? | 04:08 |
| randabis | yes | 04:09 |
| randabis | the only other way I know of is to manually locate all the packages yourself and remove them | 04:09 |
| randabis | debfoster is supposed to in theory do that for you | 04:09 |
| apokryphos | underlord: after the upgrade just now? | 04:10 |
| underlord | not right this seccond, i upgraded last night, and ever since... im trying reinstallation in synaptic now... | 04:10 |
| jsubl2 | well the install went great!! | 04:10 |
| apokryphos | underlord: try one now. It was updated today | 04:11 |
| underlord | ooh | 04:11 |
| underlord | maybe i started upgrading while the new packages ehere half uploaded or something | 04:12 |
| closure | i can't apt-get install debfoster | 04:12 |
| randabis | did you use sudo? | 04:12 |
| apokryphos | underlord: Doubtful... it was done a few hours ago | 04:12 |

| closure | i didn't think atleast | 04:12 |
| closure | i had kynaptic open | 04:12 |
| closure | but i closed it | 04:12 |
| randabis | it should work now then | 04:12 |
| closure | it's probably frozen in the background or something | 04:12 |
| randabis | ps aux can tell you if it is or not | 04:13 |
| underlord | seems to be stable now | 04:14 |
| closure | it says it its | 04:14 |
| closure | err is | 04:14 |
| closure | how do i kill it? | 04:14 |
| randabis | kill (pid) | 04:15 |
| randabis | pid = the number | 04:15 |
| lonewolff | or killall -9 processname | 04:15 |
| randabis | yeah | 04:16 |
| closure | ok still not working | 04:19 |
| closure | hrm | 04:20 |
| closure | i'll restart in a second i guess | 04:20 |
| randabis | ah | 04:22 |
| closure | ? | 04:22 |
| randabis | you might be able to get rid of most gnome things by removing libgnome-2.0 | 04:22 |

| randabis | sometimes you need to, but not often | 05:12 |
| delltony_ | well i just restart x | 05:12 |
| delltony_ | but i do see your point | 05:12 |
| unnameablePLAYER | sometimes linux gets into the swap and you have to reboot if you want it zippy again | 05:12 |
| randabis | restarting x won't let you run a new kernel | 05:13 |
| delltony_ | unnameablePLAYER, thats true | 05:13 |
| randabis | something like that requires a reboot | 05:13 |
| delltony_ | and randabis i agree with that as well | 05:13 |
| delltony_ | i was thinking like minor updates | 05:13 |
| delltony_ | there is aways a reboot for major things like that | 05:13 |
| delltony_ | anyway was just curious | 05:13 |
| unnameablePLAYER | who thinks you have to reboot it? | 05:13 |
| delltony_ | closure did | 05:14 |
| randabis | otherwise, it isn't unusual to have linux machines running for months without reboots, even years | 05:14 |

| randabis | I ended up just turning those popups off | 05:41 |
| closure | how do you do that? | 05:41 |
| smouche | What I don't know is, am I using the 32 bit or 64 bit firefox on my amd64? | 05:41 |
| smouche | (I'm running hoary of course) | 05:42 |
| smouche | hoary, b4 bit kubuntu | 05:42 |
| randabis | kcontrol | 05:42 |
| smouche | I understand that many plug-ins won't work with the 64 bit firefox, but I don't know how to change versions, or even which I have... | 05:43 |
| randabis | omg | 05:45 |

| smouche | Roey: my problem is, if I add a layout that uses dead keys, then the normal layout seems to get stuck with dead keys too. So I can't keep a "normal" keyboard for friends to use, while having one for me that lets me use accent marks | 06:02 |
| Roey | oh | 06:03 |

| wi43 | i just installed kubuntu on my ibook | 06:17 |
| wi43 | i have a linksys wireless usb, do you think it will work | 06:17 |

| wi43 | are you running opteron | 06:17 |

| ChaosZ3RO | How do I configure alsa in kubuntu? Alsaconf doesn't work | 06:20 |
| crimsun | that's because alsaconf was stripped from 'alsa-utils' for being such a shoddy program. | 06:21 |

| wi43 | what does kubuntu provide over the debian installation' | 06:25 |
| wi43 | ie, what customizations are added | 06:25 |
| jsubl2 | kde 3.4 for one | 06:25 |
| wi43 | yeah, 3.4 is nice | 06:25 |
| wi43 | i like it | 06:25 |
| jsubl2 | it won't be in debian till after the release | 06:25 |
| wi43 | that was why i installed it today | 06:26 |
| wi43 | and man does it do mac / yaboot formatting well | 06:26 |

| jsubl2 | no 3.4 till after the release. | 06:27 |
| _phate_ | what version of KDE does Kubuntu use? | 06:27 |
| jsubl2 | 3.4 | 06:27 |
| incubii | i have found that KDM has a bug at least on my G4 setup. it bootups into a really screwy image with rainbow colors. but if i install GDM and make that the default i do not get this problem | 06:27 |
| _phate_ | and whats the diff between Ubuntu and Kubuntu? Is it just KDE? | 06:28 |
| jsubl2 | incubii: i have not seen that on the amd64 release | 06:28 |
| incubii | does anyone know if this is a common problem or already been put through bugzilla | 06:28 |
| incubii | well its done it on two different G4s | 06:28 |
| incubii | but they are the same setup | 06:28 |
| jsubl2 | incubii: matter of fact i thought the kdm looked really nice | 06:28 |
| incubii | oh it looks great | 06:29 |
| incubii | after i restart the xserver | 06:29 |
| incubii | if i could take a screenshot i would | 06:29 |
| _phate_ | incubii: not that I have anything against Macs, but maybe its your mac? | 06:29 |
| incubii | well then its two seperate G4 Macs that do it only with KDM and not GDM, which leads me to beleive it is KDM and possibly some setting | 06:30 |
| smouche | folks, I have 64 bit , and I want 32 bit. Do I have to just reinstall, or can I downgrade somehow? | 06:30 |

| wi43 | crimsun good idea | 06:31 |
| wi43 | or you could use qemu | 06:31 |
| wi43 | or xen | 06:31 |
| wi43 | for 32 bit possibly | 06:31 |

| _phate_ | aren't all the packages in the ubuntu repository only for Gnome? | 06:32 |
| smouche | I didn't know when I installed the 64 bit version that I'd have browser plug-in problems etc. | 06:32 |
| _phate_ | or tailored towards gnome | 06:33 |

| smouche | I'm not being lazy, crimsun. I would like to know if downgrading is possible, or if reinstall is easier. Thank you for the link, I'll look at it, but I still would like to know what my other options are. | 06:34 |
| crimsun | smouche: a 32-bit chroot really is easiest | 06:35 |
| crimsun | smouche: no, you can't "downgrade" from a 64-bit install to a 32-bit one | 06:35 |
| crimsun | smouche: yes, you could always wipe and start over | 06:35 |
| smouche | uh hunh, despite the fact that that page is greek to me, crimsun. Reinstall it is. Thanks! The hardest part now is just waiting for the download. | 06:36 |

| lunitik | Can't load mozilla plugin though... | 08:11 |

| randabis | if you already have ubuntu installed | 08:51 |

| Badtz_Mark | randabis: how to i rip a cd into MP3?,i relize Kubuntu doesn't have MP3 encoder installed | 08:52 |
| closure | randabis, apt-get remove libgnome-2.0? | 08:53 |
| randabis | that should remove a lot of gnome stuff | 08:53 |
| randabis | since most gnome things depend on that library | 08:53 |
| closure | is that the line i type though? | 08:54 |
| closure | or do the debfoster thing? | 08:54 |

| randabis | Badtz_Mark: never needed to do that so I'm not sure | 08:58 |
| randabis | closure: find it in kynaptic or synaptic or something then | 08:58 |

| Badtz_Mark | o.k | 08:59 |
| wpyle | Batdz_Mark, you can use KAudioCreater in KDE Menu > Multimedia | 08:59 |
| closure | wait what's the refresh apt-get command? | 08:59 |
| wpyle | installed by default....it only does .ogg files as far as I can tell though | 08:59 |
| wpyle | ogg files are smaller and higher quality than mp3, so its not too bad | 09:00 |
| randabis | not to mention ogg is a free standard | 09:00 |
| === dracflamloc [~dracflaml@nat72.vnet.wnec.edu] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| randabis | for mp3 encoding, I think you need libmad0 | 09:01 |
| Badtz_Mark | o.O | 09:01 |
| wpyle | closure, I think you might be looking for "apt-get update" | 09:03 |

| randabis | Badtz_Mark: sudo -s will give you a prompt for your password, enter your USER password, and voila, you have root (admin) | 09:07 |

| brainZzZ | note that i copied in their examples from the docs and while it changed the errors i was getting, it didn't do much else. the error i get is when i specify a username and password for the admin account authorized to join computers, it claims the user is not found. note that this happens after the user is authenticated so i'm really quite puzzled. | 09:38 |

| apokryphos | If it's not finding the executable then (using my great history of knowledge here), I'd guess that there's something wrong with your PATH, or with your /usr/bin | 06:12 |
| emrys_ | I read somewher that if u delete the .kde folder and restart something good could happen, so I did | 06:12 |
| Quinn_Storm | apokryphos: emrys_'s install is all messed up, he needs to make sure the packages are in properly. if what I told him doesn't work he'll probably have to reinstall | 06:13 |
| emrys_ | Some things changed but problems still the same | 06:13 |
| apokryphos | Quinn_Storm: agreed | 06:13 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: that would only change your user's settings | 06:13 |
| emrys_ | Yep | 06:13 |
| emrys_ | Now I know it | 06:13 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: it's often done to verify whether the problem is a particular user's kde settings etc. but it's not like that in this case. | 06:13 |
| emrys_ | But a System Icon appears | 06:13 |
| Quinn_Storm | emrys_: did you do the three commands I suggested? sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 06:14 |
| emrys_ | And when I click on it, it is empty | 06:14 |
| Quinn_Storm | apokryphos: sometimes I wish I could just ssh into their machines and fix it for them heh | 06:14 |
| apokryphos | Yeah :P | 06:14 |
| emrys_ | i'm on it | 06:14 |
| Quinn_Storm | emrys_: ok | 06:15 |
| emrys_ | :) | 06:15 |
| Quinn_Storm | emrys_: that should fix your packages, but if something else went wrong (package not installed right, etc.) it may not fix it | 06:15 |
| emrys_ | finished | 06:15 |
| Quinn_Storm | emrys_: ok, restart kde and see what happens | 06:15 |
| emrys_ | I have to reboot or something?? | 06:15 |

| apokryphos | :P | 06:17 |
| Quinn_Storm | rofl | 06:17 |
| Quinn_Storm | I am lucky, I started with slack many years ago so I had to actually learn what linux was about rather than starting with gui and working down, I started with cli and worked up | 06:18 |
| apokryphos | Wish it had been more like that with me. Started with Mandrake, but I guess it did well since it didn't scare me back to Windoze, which is definitely a plus. ;-) | 06:19 |
| Quinn_Storm | thats true, though given I was using Win 95 at the time it would be unlikely for something to scare me back to that pos | 06:19 |
| apokryphos | The person who taught me my first few things stressed that CLI makes quite a few things more efficient, which was definitely good too. | 06:19 |
| buz | even mandrake 10.1 threw me back to win | 06:19 |
| apokryphos | haha | 06:19 |
| apokryphos | buz: Eek. Ubu bring you back? | 06:19 |
| buz | only kubuntu seems to have done the job | 06:19 |
| Quinn_Storm | of course I started with dos/win31 many years ago so I already knew what a cli was | 06:19 |
| apokryphos | buz: cool :) | 06:20 |
| buz | of course, i've been using freebsd on servers since 2000 | 06:20 |
| apokryphos | Ah, convenient. I started with a Mac (or, at lesat, our dad did). It had games on it! | 06:20 |

| buz | dos 6/win3.1 | 06:20 |
| Quinn_Storm | of course OS X is SHINY! | 06:20 |
| buz | aqua is nifty but it gets in my way too often | 06:21 |
| apokryphos | hehe. They look real nice too yeah. | 06:21 |
| buz | and i'm suppposed to actually BUY shareware for every piece of thing that misses | 06:21 |
| Quinn_Storm | well yeah but the cli on a mac is great (and has been missing for years) | 06:21 |
| buz | it's actually somewhat weird | 06:21 |
| Quinn_Storm | I don't like aqua that much either | 06:21 |
| buz | pretty weird even | 06:21 |
| apokryphos | It was Mikrosoft after that till Windoze would crash muck up *all* the time. | 06:21 |
| Quinn_Storm | and the dock is actually a usability nightmare | 06:21 |
| buz | considering that there's a freebsd userland under the hood, mac cli is hopelessly broken | 06:21 |
| apokryphos | Got a virus 20 minutes after a fresh install, without even opening IE. DIdn't know that was possible. | 06:22 |
| Quinn_Storm | heh, freebsd userland w/ mach kernel, that's bizarre | 06:22 |
| buz | pretty much so | 06:22 |
| buz | and osx is sooooo sloooow | 06:22 |
| Quinn_Storm | apokryphos: yep, all too possible...these days a fresh winxp sp0 install gets infected in a few MINUTES | 06:22 |
| buz | even on a friggin g5, it feels sluggish | 06:22 |
| Quinn_Storm | well I'll stick with my kubuntu for now | 06:22 |
| buz | me too | 06:22 |

| buz | saves money ;-) | 06:23 |
| Quinn_Storm | I want a better visual theme than plastik tho, (and I really don't like aqua that much, let alone all the ugly almost-aqua styles) | 06:23 |
| apokryphos | I intent on trying Slack and Mepis on others distros though, in the meantime. | 06:23 |
| Quinn_Storm | of course plastik is 100 times better than keramik | 06:23 |

| Oadae | I've done a brand new install of Kubuntu preview 5.0.4 on a new laptop, and done an update through Kynaptic. | 06:27 |
| Riddell | emrys_: tried a dist-upgrade? | 06:27 |
| emrys_ | YEs | 06:27 |
| Oadae | Now all the fonts are larger than normal, and there's no Arial or Helvetica, and sans-serif looks terrible. | 06:27 |
| emrys_ | Ubuntu without problems | 06:27 |
| emrys_ | yes | 06:27 |
| emrys_ | all tree commands | 06:28 |
| apokryphos | I wonder if it's worth debfostering kubuntu-desktop or going for a fresh install... | 06:28 |
| Oadae | What can I do to fix it? The initial install before the update looked fine. | 06:28 |
| apokryphos | Oadae: you can't change these from kcontrol? | 06:29 |
| emrys_ | But howcome can I be sure that a fresh install will work? | 06:29 |
| Oadae | I can, but the defaults are for fonts that don't exist. | 06:29 |
| emrys_ | Maybe the x86_64 factor have some role on it?? | 06:29 |
| apokryphos | hm | 06:30 |
| emrys_ | I mean, in my Desktop pc, it works ok | 06:30 |
| apokryphos | Oadae: tell Riddell here :). Might be worth filing a bug report if that's the case. | 06:30 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: you got the different cd for the AMD, right? | 06:30 |
| emrys_ | jejeje | 06:30 |
| emrys_ | Sure man | 06:30 |
| emrys_ | The AMD64 CD | 06:31 |
| emrys_ | Yes | 06:31 |
| lonewolff | i386 cd should work fine on amd_64 however iirc | 06:31 |
| apokryphos | Not quite sure what you'll want to do, you can (i) completely remove all kubuntu stuff, see how things are going, and try a reinstall | 06:31 |
| emrys_ | I did it | 06:31 |
| apokryphos | Or, you can do a fresh install (maybe download the Kubuntu ISO, if you've got a CD to spare) | 06:32 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: you did what? | 06:32 |
| emrys_ | I unistalled All kubuntu and KDE related stuff | 06:32 |
| Riddell | Oadae: do you have a file /etc/kderc ? | 06:32 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: by doing what? | 06:32 |
| emrys_ | And reisntalled | 06:32 |
| emrys_ | Well, handcrafted way | 06:32 |
| emrys_ | With synaptic, uninstalling all the packages related | 06:32 |
| apokryphos | I doubt you will have removed all kubuntu stuff, if you didn't use debfoster | 06:32 |
| emrys_ | debfoster? | 06:33 |
| apokryphos | A small program that weeds out no-longer-wanted debian packages | 06:33 |
| emrys_ | ah ok | 06:33 |
| apokryphos | do you wanna do that or go for a fresh install, with Kubuntu ISO? Up to you... | 06:34 |
| Oadae | apokryphos, okay. | 06:34 |
| Oadae | Riddell, checking now. | 06:34 |
| emrys_ | A debfoster can sort it out? | 06:34 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: It's one of your options; things to try... | 06:34 |
| emrys_ | How long it can take a debfoster | 06:35 |
| Oadae | Riddell, no. | 06:35 |
| emrys_ | ?? | 06:35 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: Not too long. Will just remove all the packs | 06:35 |
| emrys_ | so lets do it | 06:35 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: ok. Go for debfoster kubuntu-desktop ubuntu-desktop | 06:35 |
| emrys_ | It wil remove wnted packages too?? | 06:35 |
| Riddell | Oadae: you'll need to apt-get remove --purge kubuntu-default-settings then install it again | 06:35 |

| emrys_ | but ubuntu stuff too??? | 06:36 |

| apokryphos | waaaaait | 06:36 |

| ttf | Riddell: 17:11 < ttf> #7392 seems to be a duplicate of #69774 on bugs.kde.org [...] could you check that out pls? you were involved in #67527 - so it might be easy for you to answer :) | 06:36 |

| apokryphos | debfoster ubuntu-desktop kubuntu-desktop | 06:37 |
| emrys_ | ok | 06:37 |
| emrys_ | from a terminal inside Kubuntu | 06:37 |
| emrys_ | ? | 06:37 |
| Oadae | Riddell, I'm not too familiar w/apt, yet. What would be the install command? | 06:37 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: Yup, but hold on one sec | 06:37 |
| emrys_ | Better failsafe terminal? | 06:37 |
| emrys_ | ok | 06:37 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: yeah, that's better actually. | 06:38 |
| emrys_ | ok | 06:38 |
| emrys_ | From a terminal now | 06:38 |
| emrys_ | inside KDE | 06:38 |
| apokryphos | failsafe | 06:38 |
| emrys_ | oops | 06:38 |
| emrys_ | sure | 06:38 |
| apokryphos | One sec though; not sure if we should go for ubuntu-base or ubuntu-desktop. =) | 06:39 |
| emrys_ | and then? | 06:39 |
| emrys_ | But, If i use debfoster with ubuntu... it will erase it? | 06:39 |
| apokryphos | Nope. See debfoster --help | 06:39 |
| apokryphos | Riddell: Do you think it would be better to select ubuntu-desktop/base as the one to "keep"? | 06:40 |
| apokryphos | Riddell: that is, with debfoster command. | 06:41 |
| Oadae | Riddell, apokryphos, thanks for the help. Off to see if I've borked my system. :^) | 06:41 |

| apokryphos | emrys_: No problem. Better go for ubuntu-base | 06:42 |
| emrys_ | ok | 06:42 |
| emrys_ | so debfoster ubuntu-base kubuntu-desktop? | 06:42 |
| randabis | bah | 06:43 |
| apokryphos | Yes, that's it. | 06:43 |
| apokryphos | I've gotta go now, but I'll likely be back later | 06:43 |
| emrys_ | Ok | 06:43 |
| randabis | konqueror is acting up again | 06:43 |
| emrys_ | See u latter then | 06:43 |
| emrys_ | and thanks a lot man | 06:43 |
| apokryphos | emrys_: once you've done the debfoster, apt-get for kubuntu-desktop again | 06:43 |
| emrys_ | ok | 06:43 |
| Riddell | apokryphos: why would you want to keep ubuntu-desktop? :) | 06:43 |
| apokryphos | if that fails, there's not much else than a fresh install :) | 06:43 |
| randabis | top reports it isn't using much cpu | 06:43 |
| emrys_ | ok | 06:43 |
| emrys_ | i'll try | 06:43 |
| apokryphos | Riddell: heh | 06:44 |
| === apokryphos is now known as apokaway | ||
| randabis | yeah, konqueror is only using %1 or lower CPU | 06:44 |

| litb | From your website FAQ: "You can get exactly the same effect by installing Ubuntu and adding the KDE packages from the Ubuntu archives". Will I find GNOME AND KDE are installed? | 08:28 |
| omni_lonnie | yes, you will have both... | 08:28 |
| treke | well you wont have both kde and gnome right after the cd install | 08:29 |
| hunger | Do I get both when installing from a kubuntu cd? | 08:29 |
| treke | you'll have either kde or gnome depending on which cd you used | 08:29 |
| hunger | treke: OK, thanks for the info:-) | 08:29 |
| litb | thanks, but the answer in the FAQ is a bit confusing | 08:32 |
| hunger | litb: Well, I guell the KDE env is identical to the one from the CD, but you got gnome as well. | 08:33 |
| treke | ubuntu comes with gnome | 08:33 |
| treke | kubuntu comes with kde | 08:33 |
| treke | if you want to you can install ubuntu and add the exact same kde environement | 08:34 |
| treke | or install kubuntu and install the same gnome environment as ubuntu | 08:34 |

| TechLord_Work | ataxic you must have went thru expert setup? | 08:45 |
| ataxic | TechLord_Work: is that the way? | 08:45 |
| TechLord_Work | root is there we just don't know the password | 08:46 |
| gdh | ataxic: you get a rootshell with 'sudo -s' | 08:46 |
| ataxic | TechLord_Work: the setup i get when it boots from cdrom | 08:46 |
| Quinn_Storm | heh I always use expert setup | 08:46 |
| gdh | ataxic: and then type in your own password | 08:46 |
| TechLord_Work | so by doing the sudo passwd root you can set the password | 08:46 |
| ataxic | i didn't know there wasn't another setup.. | 08:46 |
| TechLord_Work | LOL | 08:46 |
| ataxic | just the textbased install | 08:46 |

| === ataxic wonders which version he used | ||
| TechLord_Work | yea the default is the simple setup doesn't ask you a lot of questions and you don't set a root password | 08:47 |
| ataxic | i had to set my partitions and stuff | 08:47 |
| TechLord_Work | you still can with the simple setup | 08:48 |
| ataxic | it wasn't difficult, quite self explaining all | 08:48 |
| TechLord_Work | yea it was i've went thru both and found them both usefull | 08:48 |

| lonewolff | does anyone know why when i set /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to 1 and reboot it automatically changes back to 0 ?? | 10:04 |
| gdh | yes | 10:04 |
| gdh | edit /etc/network/options | 10:04 |
| === kay [~kay@p50839745.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| gdh | .. /etc/init.d/networking is responsible for that... | 10:04 |
| kay | hi there | 10:05 |
| lonewolff | ah ok, that is strange | 10:05 |
| gdh | lonewolff: not really -that's the way Debian does it :) | 10:05 |
| lonewolff | debian doesent change it back if you edit the ip_forward file manually tho | 10:05 |
| lonewolff | i run sarge on all of my machine and have enabled ip_forward in the same way lol | 10:06 |
| gdh | you already have ip_forward=yes in that machine and it still goes back to 0 on reboot? | 10:06 |
| lonewolff | hence why i was confused when this started changin on its own lol | 10:06 |
| === jcdenton [~david@222.Red-80-38-87.pooles.rima-tde.net] has left #kubuntu ["sul!] | ||
| lonewolff | nope nope, im changing that now, hopefully that will fix things | 10:06 |
| lonewolff | ah well that seems to be it sorted | 10:11 |
| === lonewolff writes that in his list of things to remember | ||
| gdh | :) | 10:11 |
| bobesponja | if I make my /dev/hda5 bootable (with cfdisk) will that wipe out all the data on it? | 10:12 |
| gdh | i.e. set the 'boot' flag in the partition table? | 10:13 |
| gdh | if so, then no it won't affect the data / partition at all. | 10:14 |
| gdh | I think the 'boot' flag is really only used by MS-DOS tho' | 10:14 |
| === lonewolff always sets his /boot to bootable | ||
