CygnusX1Good evening.  This is my second daily attempt at this.  I am trying to install, from CD, Kubuntu 5.04 on an Asus A7N8x DLX (nforce2), SATA drive.  I am receiving an error that indicated my CD-ROM is not an UBUNTU CD (the checksum is good.)  The problem appears to be that several IDE modules are not loading for whatever reason.  Does anyone have a clue for me?01:03
membreyawhat type of cdrom is it ?01:05
CygnusX1CDROM drive?01:05
membreyayes the cddrive01:05
membreyais it IDE, SCSI, SATA?01:05
CygnusX1I have a Sony DVD drive, Philips CDR-RW drive, and a Pioneer DVDR-RW....I tried all three...with all three failing, do you need model numbers?01:06
CygnusX1tIDE CD/DVD drives.01:06
_alexRiddell: thank you, that was what I was looking for !01:06
Zugoti really wish konq had that nifty find bar that firefox has01:06
CygnusX1I boot into the installer, then, the failure occurs when seraching for the package CD.01:06
membreyano CygnusX1 .....I'm not sure if it's failing and saying it's not a proper disk01:07
membreyayour SATA drive would be taken care of with sata_nv01:07
membreyahave you tried redownloading the ISO ?01:07
CygnusX1membreya, I could do that, but the md5sum is good.01:07
CygnusX1I am mounting the CD now and will run a checksum on all the files on the CD.01:09
darkauditCygnusX1: md5 on the iso, or on the burned CD?01:12
CygnusX1darkaudit, the iso md5sum was fine...I am verifying the files on the burned CD now...01:13
darkauditCygnusX1: ok... dounds to me like the download was good, but the burn had errors...01:13
darkauditer sounds01:13
CygnusX1It is still running...my apologies for not checking that first.  I haven't burnt a bad CD in six years. :-)01:16
CygnusX1It is done...all files are fine...CD is good, ISO is good.01:16
CygnusX1I have found someone with the same issue on the forum: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2515301:19
Zugoti've noticed something...01:32
Zugotwhen i search for something in konq... i get different urls as for when i make the same search in firefox...01:32

_antoniofriends, i tried that but the only avavailable screen resolution is 640x48004:11
smoucheI wish that panel, or anything in the gui, permitted changing color depth too04:11
kkathmancoreymon77: what I was worried about was that he said it was ok before...so I didnt know if the xorg got corrupted somehow04:12
smoucheI find it absurd that one has to edit xorg just to do that...04:12
jsubl2maybe he needs to cut the color depth back to 16 or lower depending on vid card04:12
coreymon77smouche: you generally dont04:12
_antoniofriends my kubuntu installation is fresh04:12
_antonioit has only one hour age04:12
smouchecoreymon77, ?04:12
kkathmansmouche: normally you wouldnt, the new hoary install gives you the option on what resolutions you want to include04:12
smouchewhere do you change color depth settings then?04:12
smoucheI'm not talking about resolution04:13
kkathmansmouche: if you just rifle past that screen,  all you get is the lowest resolution04:13
smouchesorry, this is not clear to me.04:13
coreymon77kkathman: sorry but you are on your own for this04:14
coreymon77this is beyond my knowledge04:14
smoucheto change 22 bit color to 16 (really, I wanted 32, but the system wouldn't accept it) I had to edit xorg.conf04:14
smouche22 bits looked awful for some reason, 16 looks better, in windows I use 32 for this machine, go figure!04:15

smouchewell, I woudn't care coreymon77 , but most of kde's wallpaper and background color effects use gradients, and gradients look horrible04:16
smoucheon here without 32 bit color04:16
kkathman_antonio: im not sure what the prob is, what you might do is since you did install just recently, try installing the hoary release final, completely, THEN apt-get the kubuntu desktop...that way the hoary install will preset the valid configurations of your screen (i dont know that the kbuntu disk install does that04:16
smouchejust this machine; other laptop and crt are fine with whatever04:16

smoucheand there are other programs too that I have to open via su in konsole, like shad0wle said, like kpackage, or it won't accept my password05:11

=== LeeJunFan [junfan@64-186-37-120.skycon.net] has joined #kubuntu
steltyou're misunderstanding: in console, when i do "su" i need to type my rootpw as expected. However if i'm asked for my rootpw because of some action in GUI, my rootpw doesn't work, but when i type my userpw that DOES work05:45
kkathmanstelt: just issue the command at the terminal...example   sudo gedit filename05:46
kkathmanthat launches gedit and gives you appropriate permissions05:46

steltsmouche: i've been playing with Kuser (which keeps crashing by the way) and i DO need a rootpw when i do "su" in console, my userpw really doesn't work then as it should. I'd like it the same way in GUI, cause i don't want ordinary users to do root stuff05:49
BlackLabelis there a way i can see a bigger display picture of ppl in a chat window in kopete?05:49
kkathmanBlackLabel: have you tried the new "Clear" theme thats available at kde-look.org?05:50

=== duken [rose@volunteer.olami.net.id] has joined #kubuntu
smouchefrankly, sometimes I think the dev's , being command-line masters themselves, don't always check out the gui tools as thouroughly as they might.05:57
smoucheThe admin stuff is horrible.05:57
wpylestelt, try "sudo passwd root", type in your passwd, and Kuser again05:57
kkathmanwell its possible...but alot of us learn (or should learn) the console early enough, that we dont use GUI to do alot of things other than major applications I guess05:58
kkathmanI imagine that I do about 75% of everything from the terminal ... but run konversation and the browser stuff of course in the GUI05:58
smouchekkathman, which kind of begs the question -- why are the tools offered, and if offered, shouldn't they be as reliable as running from the console?05:58
LeeJunFansmouche: I know I don't. When someone asks me how to do something it usually starts with vi .....05:59
smoucheat the very least, in every admin app like that, console command alternatives should be listed, if newbies want to try them05:59
=== DrDogwelder_ is now known as DrDogwelder
kkathmansmouche: Absolutely agree with that. If the tools are provided, they should be reliable. But I think the "mentality" is that alot of people dont use them, so they kinda get pushed to the back of the list of priorities05:59
smoucheso they don't get stuck wrestling with buggy or confusing guis05:59
smoucheexactly my point, kkathman.  06:00
kkathmanI mean, I'd rather them get major apps right and debugged rather than ksuer for instance ..but I DO see your point06:00
smouchebut kde is not as bad in this respect as gnome, in my opinion...06:00
smouchekkathman, kuser is a major app!  How else can someone add users if they don't already know linux commands?  It' s not just "major", it's essential!06:01
kkathmansmouche: you are right there06:01
kkathmansmouche: well its major of course if you dont know the commands, thats true06:02
smouchebut like I said, if every gui had a little info panel, right on it's first screen, menttioning "konsole adduser"  or "man adduser" 06:02
kkathmansmouche: a better example is allowing Konq to view samba shares...doing that in the terminal mode is a reall pain.06:02
smoucheor giving some reference, instead of these oftern pitiful app help pages, people could more quickly learn command line stuff06:03
kkathmanbut I can create a user at a terminal faster than you can click open the Kuser and do it probably...but Im a geek too :)06:03
kkathmanlol06:03
=== stelt has a hard time swallowing that gui does not live up to login rules that console does. i thought gui is using same stuff as console. it should be impossible to do without rootpw to do root/su things
kkathmansmouche: Im with you on the documentation...try reading man smbmount and see if you can figure out how to issue that command successfully :)06:04
smoucheme too, kkathman, especially since, like I said, kuser sucks! at least on my system, and apparently some others' ;-)06:04
smoucheman man man man man man -- I tried man info once, and info man, and then I got drunk and booted up windows.06:05
kkathmanstelt: well, Ubuntu is the only distro I know that DOES get rid of root.  Thats one things Im not wild about, but its easy for me to acclimate to06:05
=== stelt got scared security-wise
smouchething is, I think they missed something there, kkathman-- I think there's lingering parts of kde that haven't bought into the whole sudo thing-- and that's where these "administration modes" in the gui tools fall apart06:06
membreyamy administration made works fine *shrugs*06:07
kkathmansmouche: absolutely. KDE is a global linux gui, and like I said Ubuntu is the only one that I have seen that disables the root account06:07
kkathmanmembreya: you do your stuff from the command line I imagine, like me :)06:08
membreyanot at all06:08
smouchemembreya, can you add users with kuser ? (please don't tell me you don't use it, i know, use konsole, I can do that-- just wondering if kuser is buggy on your system)06:08
kkathmanreally?06:08
membreyajust load the control centre and click on admin mode06:08
membreyakuser ALWAYS crashes on me :|06:08
smouchekkathman, when I said "parts of kde", I meant the actual software on my box, not the kde project...06:09
kkathmanmembreya: by the way...do you happen to know the ins and outs of smbmount, cuz I cant for the life of me figure it out from the man page :)06:09
membreyawhats wrong kkathman ?06:09
membreyaby the way...how well does kcron work?06:10
kkathmanmembreya: just trying to see my samba shares from a terminal mode06:10
smouchecontrol center admin modes only work in some parts of control center; to use it without errors and crashing, I have to do konsole- sudo kcontrol.  forget about the icon.06:10

smoucheheh heh, when I say konsole, I mean -- whatever - the cli.  E-term, xterm, I never know whether to say "shell" or terminal, or whatever..06:12
smouchekkathman, do you use anything starting with a k? ;-)06:12
kkathmanmembreya: ok well I issued that command...how do I see the shares now?06:13

smouche(I like kpackage, for the easy hyperlinked info)06:14
kkathmanmembreya: credentials?06:14
kkathmanmembreya: mountpoint...that means I need to create a directory ?06:15

membreyasudo nano /root/.smbcredentials06:15
=== stelt is of to the console where he at least has some experience with linux compared to the gui. maybe, just maybe the kuser isn't displaying rights right. maybe my login has root/su rights?, hmm. but wait i wasn't asked for a pw at startup, i think
membreyathen put username=yourusername followed by password=yourpassword06:15
kkathmanmembreya: so the username would be what I log into ubuntu with and the same for the password right?06:16
membreyayes06:17
membreyaor the one that you use for the samba shares..but generally your ubuntu one06:17
kkathmanmembreya: ok I wrote two lines out06:17
membreyakkathman: save the file ;)06:18
membreyaand then in your /etc/fstab file put:06:18
membreya/(ip of machine so 192.168.0.blah)        /media/(your new mountpoint your just created)  smbfs    credentials=/root/.smbcredentials       0       006:18
smoucheI've never understood this business of "mounting" samba shares, as opposed to simply viewing them in konqueror ... when I use konqueror to see my windows ntfs folders via smb-client, am I "mounting them"?06:19
membreyaessentially06:19
membreyabut i have problems browsing my network :| (not the same workgroup screws it up AFAIK)06:19
smoucheit never asks me for a password; well, once in a blue moon it does06:19
smouchethen it won't accept anything I put in!06:20
kkathmanmembreya: where would I put that in the fstab?06:20
=== smouche goes looking for bottle of scotch he's been forgetting to drink...
kkathmanmembreya: also, the ip of the machine that you say...Im assuming that is the ip of the machine that is the share, not the ip of the linux box right?06:21
membreyakkathman: you put it at the bottom of your fstab...and as for the question ..ok say there's a windows machine that you want to connect to with a sharename of linux ... you would put //192.168.0.4/linux06:23
kkathmanmembreya: well the sharename is the computer name on the windows box06:24
kkathmanright?06:24
membreyano06:24
membreyathe sharename is the name of the directory06:24

kkathmanahhh06:24
kkathmanhmm06:24

kkathmanI dont know what the "share" name is06:26

smoucheI yanked it from the network, viruses at work, mysterious hard drive meltdowns, it's a mess.06:57
smouchemaybe she's hiding.06:58
kkathmanI can see it on the windows network06:58

kkathmanyep I just did an smbtree and there was the other linux box07:01
smouchehow come konqueror couldn't see mine, then-- eeerrrr, never mind, no linux server yet...07:01
kkathmanquite a bit easier than NFS07:01
kkathmanyeah you have to configure Samba....07:01

smoucheyep, that's what I do with konqueror - but I just browse through the file manager, with icons to particular folders.  I didn't need to configure any mount points--07:03
trans_errokay im trying to install the prism2 drivers and it still says i dont have my full linux sour07:04
smoucheI'm still confused about the advantages of all that as opposed to just using smb-client, which worked out of th box07:04
trans_err*source07:04
kkathmansmouche: if it works...stick with it :)07:05
smouchethat's a big if, when we're talking about konqueror!07:06
smouche;-)07:07
kkathmansee there are some weird things that go on with Samba07:07
kkathmanIt has to do with naming07:07
smouchei noticed!07:08
smouchelike what?07:08
kkathmanwell  ok....if you run Samba, and let it find your shared folders on your windows boxes. the windows system defaults the name of the shares to something like C$ and D$07:09
smouchekkathman, I found some media apps handle the network better than others; for some reason kaffeine may load your mp3 etc much faster than, say, totem or xmms.07:10
kkathmanif you try to access them its like NO07:10
smouchedon't know why.07:10
smoucheweird...  07:10
kkathmanhmm this is weird07:11
smouchethat's not how smb-client does it-- everything looked exactly the same, either end07:11
kkathmanI just restarted samba and now it doesnt see anything ......hmmmmmmmmmm07:11
kkathmanewwwww07:12
kkathmannow Im baffled07:12
smoucheit's flaky.07:12
kkathmanbut funny I can still go to that icon I made and see that windows folder ;)07:13
kkathmanhow weird07:13

kkathmanmaybe it just takes time for the restart to initialize ??07:14
smoucheI think it'll settle down; I had samba for a brief while in gnome07:15
kkathmanI went over to my windows box and changed the share name...but thats not showing07:15
smoucheit acted off and on like that at first; then I nixed it anyway07:15
kkathmanoh wait yes it is07:15
kkathmanlol07:15
kkathmanI SEE IT!07:15
kkathmanthis is so kewl07:16
smoucheanything interesting on your wife's computer, dude?07:16

kkathmansmouche: just our finances and a few speadsheets07:16
smoucherunning linux, I hope!07:17
kkathmanbut...she's got limited visibility to my windows machine..he he he07:17
steltok guys i figured it out. i can do sudo stuff cause i'm part of a "admin" group (which is of course a default setting for the only user).  so as long as i make sure other users are not part of that group they won't be able to do sudo things.07:17
kkathmannope hers is a win box right now07:17

smouchewhat a mess07:18
smouchelol07:18
smouchethat was a few re-installs ago07:18
kkathmanhey stelt how do you know what group you are in then?07:18
kkathmanwhat you say makes sense, because the permissions are for owner, group, user I think07:19
smouchethat's what kuser is for -- and anyway, there's a command for that info, isn't there?07:19
stelt"groups"07:19
smouchewait a minute, isn't there a "sudoers" file somewhere, where you can add users, independant of group?07:20

Borg^QueenWhen I enter it, and it is the correct one, it rejects it07:24
smouchethis is a theme, tonight!07:25
Borg^Queenlol is it?07:25
smoucheyep!07:25
Borg^QueenAnd what exactly is it?07:25
smouchetry opening a terminal, and sudo kynaptic...07:25
smouchebetter yet, get synaptic, much better07:26
Borg^QueenSorry try again is what I get07:26
smouchewhy some kde apps are rejecting passwords, I don't know.  I'm having problems with kpackage and kuser also07:26
Borg^QueenI agree synaptic is better07:26
Borg^QueenHmm07:26
Borg^QueenIt says I'm not on the sudo user file07:27
smouchewait a minute -- Borg^Queen, did you set a root password for yourself?07:27
Borg^QueenYes07:27
smoucheI see07:27
smouchedon't use that password07:27
steltBorg^Queen: try your userpw instead07:27
smoucheuse you regular user password07:27
Borg^QueenI have07:27
Borg^QueenI'm not on the list07:28
smouchecheck your sudoers file, and add yourself07:28
smouche?07:28
Borg^QueenWhere?07:28
smoucheyou know, I think I may know where I screwed up -- just for the hell of it, I set a root password... never use it07:29
steltis there a log of this channel? then Borg^Queen can read back what we just talked about07:29
Borg^QueenSo far I'm not really happy with it, it has a lot of trouble mounting a zip drive. It can't see simple usb stick07:29

eselmongojust after a clean install of kubuntu 5.0.4.08:46
KaiLrijad: let's try08:47
trekewhen you created the wallet did you give it a password?08:47
hinni@kaiL Thank you. ;-) 08:47
hinniWell I put this new card into my AMD K6 400. It's called Galaxxy Zeus 5200 powered by Geforce FX 5200 GPU and when I start Kubuntu the system freezes at login or shortly after. I installed the drivers according to the ubuntu forum with nvidia-glx08:47
eselmongotreke: didn't create a wallet, didn't know i had to08:47
rijadokej, how do i get synaptic to work?08:47
trekethe first time kopete uses the wallet it will prompt you to create one08:47
rijador was it kynaptic08:47
KaiLhinni: bang.. no good. Which chipset on the mainboard?08:48

smoucheKail -- broken how?  I wish I had seen the beginning of your and KaiL 's discussion...11:18
KaiLsmouche: just plain doesn't work11:19
smouchebecause I've had problems with programs accepting neither sudo nor root password11:19
TayloRjust out of curiosity, any news on this konqueror crash bug? i tried the 'way around it' by not displaying the side menu on the left but it still constantly crashes11:19
KaiLallee, smouche, Speedy2, uniq: anyone of you a kubuntu developer?11:19
smoucheTaylor, you had that problem too?  Losing the side menu worked for me...11:20
smoucheKaiL, no -- I'm not11:20
maxfxbye everybody11:20
TayloRsmouche: doesnt seem to work for me 11:20
alleeKaiL: no11:20
TayloRkonqueror still crashes from time to time so now i browse my files via the terminal and internet via firefox instead, wonder why it wont work for me :\...11:20
TayloRthere isnt a particular way you should disable the side menu is there?11:21
smouchesorry to hear that, Taylor-- how about this workaround -- try the "simple browser" profile for konqueror  see if you can set that as default...11:21
smoucheTayloR, I installed Krusader -- terrific file browser; unfortunately, it crashes too, but nowhere near as often as konq...11:22
alleerijad: ALT-CTRL-F1 and try to login as root there?11:22
TayloRsmouche: Oh? hmm, the way i disabled the side menu was simply going to, within my home folder, window >> hide navigation menu, is that how you disabled it? 11:23
smoucheTayloR -- get this fantastic file browser - "rox-filer" -- it's in universe, I think.  Light, quick, a little strange seeming at first but very clever in the way it displays info..11:23
TayloRrox-filer? hows the stability with that?11:24
smoucheYes, Taylor, or pressing, hm, f9, I think -- but I'm just guessing that the simpler the configuration of konqueror, the fewer the crashes...11:24
smouchenever crashed on my, rox-filer, Taylor11:24
smouche"on me"11:24
TayloRok thanks alot smouche for the help & suggestions, ill be sure to give that rox-filer a try :)11:25
smouchethe interface is very different from kde apps, but it works!11:25
TayloRany news on if that bugs going to be patched / fixed any time soon?11:25
KaiLTayloR: if anybody could reproduce them,,,11:25
smouchekewl, TahloR, I'm a big fan of rox -- 11:25
smouchedownside, though, if you have windows shares you want to browse via smb-client, it won't work for that...11:26
smouche(rox)11:26
TayloRah right11:26
smoucheKaiL, Taylor -- I don't know what the status is on that bug, but it was filed, anyway, and I think a couple people confirmed reproducing it11:27

TayloRah ok, well im just getting that rox-filer right this second so ill see how that one goes for now :)11:27
smoucheone tell-tale of a problem-- crashes are most likely if you invoke konq from the "sytem menu -- home folder" icon.11:28
smouchethe icon thingie in the upper right corner will spin endlessly...11:28
smouchecheers, TayloR!11:29

Borg^QueenWell I've had enough of kubuntu.11:29
KaiLwhy this?11:30
TayloRdoesnt seem to have placed a shortcut within the menu for rox-filer, ran it via terminal anyhoo11:30
Borg^QueenGood luck people. I hope all of your fare better.11:30
=== flammen [~flammen@dsl-084-058-000-222.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu
TayloRso far so good, nice, abit basic but real fast in response time11:30
Borg^Queenkail, it doesn't conform to gnu-nix standards. It's more like windows in too many ways. And it crashed twice.11:30
=== flammen is now known as flammenbringer
trekewhat gnu-nix standards are these?11:31
Borg^QueenIt's good if all you want to do it basic stuff.11:31
Borg^Queenbut I guess that's what its for isn't it?11:31
alleeKail:  I installed kubuntu last night.  now set a root pw and su sodu, kdesu still works (before I made sure autologin via ssh key works ;)11:31

Jet2k5hello guys11:32
Jet2k5I want to install kubuntu, but I'm getting authentication errors11:32
Jet2k5is this a kubuntu problem or ubuntu problem?11:32
KaiLsudo is really a horror.......11:32
trekeBorg^Queen: perhaps you should be more specific so that problems can be resolved.11:32
Jet2k5not sure where to as for help11:32

Borg^Queentreke: I wish I could but I'm on a time table to find a new company distro as well as a distro for the community center.11:32
Borg^QueenKaiL: I agree. it was a big mistake11:33
smoucheTayloR -- the little details grab me with rox -- check out the context menus, and icons ,11:33
alleeKaiL:  sudo is often great.   But using is always is a bit much ;)11:33
=== SuperCatFrog [~bob@80-192-168-123.cable.ubr02.blac.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu
KaiLBorg^Queen: except (k)ubuntu is like debian.11:33
Borg^QueenNot anymore.11:33
KaiLallee: yes11:33
smoucheand TayloR, to get an "address bar" you can type / 11:33
smoucheer, location bar, whatever11:33
SuperCatFroghi - ive just installed linux-headers, but it vmware tells me that they dont match the running kernel (i haven't recompiled my kernel, just using the one that came with kubuntu)11:33
Borg^QueenI use Debian and I can tell you I have ever encountered this problems11:33
TayloRsmouche -- i see what you mean, and oooh thanks for that, i was wondering on how to get that up :)11:33
=== treke thinks the differences between debian and ubuntu seem rather small
trekeSuperCatFrog: you need the headers for your specific kernel11:34
Borg^Queenbut they're important difff11:34
alleewhat's rijad doing?11:34
trekethere are ther packages11:34
trekeBorg^Queen: Like what?11:34
trekesudo is the big one I see11:34
Borg^QueenThe lack of a real root account to aviod this sudo nonesense.11:34
Borg^QueenExactly11:34
KaiLBorg^Queen: sudo passwd11:34
smoucheTayloR: one quibble I have with rox!  There should at least be an icon for that!  or just have the location bar visible...11:34
trekeall you have to do is set a root password11:34
trekeand then your done11:34
SuperCatFrogtreke - where can i get them from? will that mean compiling my own kernel (i installed kubuntu to avoid compiling stuff [from gentoo] )11:34
Borg^QueenThat and it strips down KDE11:35
KaiLset a root-PW and you have it11:35
Borg^QueenI did11:35
trekenot stripped down, just a different default install11:35
KaiLand enable universe11:35
Borg^QueenI caused more problems than it solved11:35
Borg^QueenKaiL: I did enable universal11:35
KaiLuniverse :)11:35
smouchebtw, TayloR, I don't know if you use xfce at all, but rox is wonderful in that -- much better than default xfce file manager11:35
alleeBorg^Queen: real root account?  without remembering a second passwort? --> kdesu -- konsole --workdir /root11:35
trekethere is even the kde meta package if you want all of kde installed11:35
Borg^QueenAye universe11:35
TayloRsmouche -- Yeah i agree 100%, would be nice if the address bar was on display all the time above the field names, e.g. above the name, type, permissions etc.. etc..11:36
trekehow does setting a root password cause problems?11:36
alleeBorg^Queen: works fine.  and a disabled root pw never hurts ;)11:36
Borg^QueenGive it time, you'll see.11:36
Borg^QueenAnyway thanks.11:36
trekejust say it11:36
Borg^QueenGood luck and have fun.11:36
trekeso basically he's just a troll11:37

alleetreke: root pw worked on 'old' kubuntu and on a fresh kubuntu.  ==> there is no bug.  Just a user error ;)11:37
thieumhi there11:37
smoucheTayloR- I love the easy toggling of views, especially the hidden files toggle icon, and the way windows snap - funky icons though!11:38
thieumquestion: usb key icon doesn't apper automatically on the desktop.... anyone knows howto to fix this ?11:38
TayloRsmouche -- indeed, yeah its actually really nice and simple, thanks alot for suggesting it :)... hopefully that bug with konqueror is sorted sometime soon11:38
KaiLthieum: rightclick -> conf. desktop -> (second entry) -> tab device icons :)11:39
TayloRargh could someone refresh my memory on how i can check if dma is enabled on my cdrom?11:39

KaiLnot to mention the ndiswrapper-fun11:45
trekesetting the root password logically should not cause any problems11:45
smoucheI'm having hellish problems with various gui frontends to admin stuff, and I've been speculating that maybe it was because I (stupidly and needlessly) set myself a "root password" instead of learning sudo properly11:46
smouchenow I have to use command line, which I know to little about in terms of commands -- would like to have those guis behaving11:46

SuperCatFrog ive just installed linux-headers, but it vmware tells me that they dont match the running kernel (i haven't recompiled my kernel, just using the one that came with kubuntu). is there a particular package i need, or do i need to compile my own kernel?11:49
smouchekuser is unusable, several places in kcontrol won't work unless I open kcontrol with "sudo kcontrol" in a terminal, instead of opening it from a menu, and using "administration mode" - which won't work!11:49
alleeKaiL: sudo or command line in general is tricky for 'newbies'.  ndiswrapper stuff is hardware and closed software --> two topics that cry for problems11:49
SuperCatFrogsmouche - kuser broke my users on my gentoo box, use users-admin or something11:49
KaiLallee: yes11:49
smoucheThanks, SuperCatFrog -- yeah, I've been using adduser or useradd (forget which)...11:50
SuperCatFroguseradd11:51
alleeSuperCatFrog: better use adduser  (useradd is 'low(er) level')11:53
smoucheI'm happy to learn terminal commands -- but I kind of resent the time I've wasted with broken or confusing guis-- time I could have used for figuring out man pages instead!11:53
=== TayloR-Away is now known as TayloR
alleesmouche: I like your attitude ;)11:54
SuperCatFrogo rite, ta11:54
=== smouche is doing a "man adduser" and a "man useradd" and a "man man" and a "man scotch and water"...
KaiLallee: just fount out, that ndiswrapper.ko is in the linux-image package11:55
KaiLfound....11:56
smoucheheh heh, at first I thought you said, "aptitude" , allee... since kpackage doesn't like my sudo, aptitude is what I need next!11:56
TayloRHmm, dma isnt enabled on my cdrom, how do i go about enabling that again lol?11:56
alleeKaiL: yes but ndiswrapper-utils need to be installed 'by' hand :(11:56
TayloRits been a while since ive used the terminal, or any terminal :P11:56
KaiLallee: that's not *that* problem11:57
alleeKaiL: we know but many don't ;)11:57
smouchehmmm, TayloR -- I enabled my DVD dma the other day, hmmm -- give me a couple minutes, I think it's the same file etc...11:57
