| mrmanic | monchy: I ask only because I currently have a single tabbed message window, so I figure you must be talking about some OTHER awesome feature. | 01:33 |
| monchy | like in gaim/trillian, a new convo gets opened up in a tab and not a whole new window | 01:33 |

| ookii | Blissex: the marillat apt source isnt' working for transcode | 03:04 |
| Blissex | ookii: you also want 'dvd::rip' from the same repository. | 03:04 |
| Blissex | ookii: then download the source debs and recompile, or be careful about the dependencies... | 03:04 |

| godsmoke | did you google the error ...? | 04:53 |
| godsmoke | to at least find out what was wrong | 04:53 |
| dwmurphy | yeah.. something about not recognizing the partition type.. which is odd.. it formattied them itself | 04:53 |
| godsmoke | did you read this? | 04:54 |
| godsmoke | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=36493 | 04:54 |
| godsmoke | did you hibernate windows first? | 04:54 |
| godsmoke | it seems that windows may be writing a non-known partition for its hibernation | 04:54 |
| godsmoke | and that could easily cause grub to error | 04:55 |
| dwmurphy | no.. not a laptop | 04:55 |
| godsmoke | doesn't matter | 04:55 |

| === absinthe_ [~matt@cpe-065-190-143-067.nc.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| godsmoke | anyway -- sounds like you should do some research -- if all else fails -- then you should redo the partitions | 04:55 |
| godsmoke | just some common sense advice | 04:55 |
| dwmurphy | yeah.. i'm not concerned.. just annoyed :) | 04:57 |
| godsmoke | stuff happens | 04:57 |
| godsmoke | could have been an error with the partition-making | 04:57 |

| lostmonk | question | 05:05 |
| lostmonk | if i install debain jr, for example | 05:05 |
| lostmonk | will it go right into the kde menu | 05:05 |
| lostmonk | or a debian subsection? | 05:05 |
| godsmoke | will what go right into the kde menu? | 05:06 |
| lostmonk | the symlink for the app | 05:06 |
| godsmoke | why don't you ask in a Debian Jr. specific help? | 05:06 |
| lostmonk | are u a tard? | 05:07 |
| lostmonk | i came here for kubuntu | 05:07 |
| lostmonk | duh | 05:07 |
| godsmoke | then why are you asking about debian jr? | 05:07 |
| godsmoke | that's a special distribution -- separate from kubuntu/ubuntu and debian | 05:07 |
| lostmonk | debian jr is a group of childrens applications | 05:08 |
| godsmoke | it's a distribution | 05:08 |
| lostmonk | it never became a distro | 05:08 |
| godsmoke | anyway, there is no debian menu in kubuntu | 05:09 |
| godsmoke | there is no menu-handling system either, I've been told | 05:09 |
| lostmonk | so then installed debs dont make it to the menu? | 05:11 |
| godsmoke | right -- the ubuntu package team has to do it | 05:11 |
| godsmoke | `menu` was never adopted from debian | 05:11 |
| godsmoke | so any menu calls the package wants to make are not going to show up | 05:12 |
| Psynecologist | hmmz .... no rip in universe | 05:12 |

| kalenedrael | it doesn't come with the gnome window manager but it has gtk | 05:19 |
| kalenedrael | and such (i think) | 05:19 |
| battlecat | That is what I was wondering | 05:19 |
| Psynecologist | battlecat, it has KDE .. to get the gnome as well ... just sudo apt-get install it afterwards | 05:19 |
| kalenedrael | if not you can always sudo apt-get install | 05:19 |
| Psynecologist | battlecat, though it seems redundant to have 2 DEs | 05:19 |
| kalenedrael | i had to sudo apt-get install xchat, for that matter | 05:19 |
| kalenedrael | i have four window managers | 05:20 |
| kalenedrael | kde, xfce, enlightenment, and fluxbox | 05:20 |
| battlecat | Thank you Psynecologist. I have a problem I need to be able to download the packages and write them to CD then take them to the totally offline machine to install. Will the Ubuntu package manager be able to do this? | 05:20 |
| Psynecologist | meh ... either E or kde | 05:20 |
| kalenedrael | i tried all of them at some point | 05:20 |
| Psynecologist | no need for kde & gnome imo | 05:20 |

| godsmoke | ubuntu is all about new packages -- not quite as tested as debian was | 05:42 |

| Matyy | Hi, I have installed KDE on a "normal" ubuntu system, and now I use XFCE, I have installed the German language file "kde-i18n-de" and kde is german | 12:42 |
| Matyy | but when I start a KDE app (konqueror, krusader, amarok) in XFCE4 it's still English | 12:42 |
| torz | heh, "normal" ubuntu | 12:43 |
| torz | dont you have to configure konqueror within it? | 12:44 |
| Matyy | I got it | 12:45 |
| torz | excellent :~) | 12:45 |
| Matyy | There is "settings" in the xfce menu where i can get to all the KDE settings, and there I can just set the language to German | 12:45 |
| nikkia | matyy, the first time you run KDE, you should get the new user wizard, which asks your language etc | 12:46 |
| torz | kpersonalizer or whatever its called | 12:46 |
| nikkia | matyy, my guess is that somehow you had a .kde directory that made the wizard not run | 12:46 |
| nikkia | and thus everything defaulted to german | 12:46 |
| torz | woohoo Azureus is now installed :~), rock on apt-get :~) | 12:46 |
| Matyy | yeah, probably, I think I didn't use kde with my account | 12:47 |
| nikkia | matyy, i'd suggest creating a new user, then login to KDE as that user, and see if you get the wizard... if that works, you could rename .kde out of the way on your normal account, and see if that forces the wizard to start | 12:47 |
| Matyy | eh, it works now | 12:47 |
| Matyy | I just had to set it to english | 12:48 |

| snowseal | anybody used the nvclock tool? is it resonably safe to use or what. | 12:49 |
| snowseal | i dont want to fry my laptop's video card just yet. | 12:50 |
| torz | hahaha | 12:51 |
| Tm_T | snowseal: overclocking is never safe | 12:51 |
| nikkia | specially on a laptop, where you have everything crammed in a tiny space | 12:51 |
| snowseal | indeed | 12:52 |
| snowseal | but i got low performance on the card in liux. compared to windows. | 12:52 |
| snowseal | hmm. okay. ty for advice. | 12:53 |
| nikkia | snowseal, you are using the nvidia driver, not 'nv' right? | 12:53 |
| snowseal | nikka i installed kernel-restricted modules, and in xorg.conf i stated to use the nvidia driver. ack | 12:54 |
| nikkia | then i don't really understand why it would be lower performance, tbh | 12:54 |
| snowseal | hm, so it should be equal? | 12:55 |
| nikkia | its highly doubtful the windows driver is overclocking, unless you made it | 12:55 |
| nikkia | snowseal, it should be comparable | 12:55 |
| nikkia | it might be a little slower in some things or a little faster in others *shrug* | 12:55 |
| snowseal | okay!, i'll debug it some more. hope to find a error | 12:55 |
| nikkia | one thing i'd check... | 12:55 |
| nikkia | by default, the nvidia driver will use their own AGP GART if none is specified (Option "NvAGP" in the config) | 12:56 |
| nikkia | the nvidia gart isn't always the best, sometimes its better/faster to use the one specific to your motherboard, even if that motherboard is nForce based | 12:56 |
| snowseal | in the xorg config ? | 12:56 |
| nikkia | yeah, you probably don't have that line at all | 12:56 |
| snowseal | i'll definately check it. tx | 12:57 |
| nikkia | if there is no 'Option "NvAGP"' line, then it defaults to, iirc, '0' which means 'use the motherboard gart if its loaded, otherwise use the one built into the X driver' | 12:57 |
| snowseal | i got a intel mb, so i guesss its nforce based. (its a g-force fx actually.) | 12:57 |
| snowseal | hmm, complex for me. but ty for tips | 12:58 |
| nikkia | the problem there, is that usually the motherboard gart isn't loaded by default, the kernel modules will exist, but aren't set to auto-load, so the nvidia driver looks, sees no gart, and uses the built in one | 12:58 |
| snowseal | will have to learn more about this. | 12:58 |
| nikkia | if you set Option "NvAGP" "2" then it forces it to load the motherboard gart | 12:58 |
| snowseal | just great info. thx again | 12:58 |

| snowseal | i just removed nvidia-glx package, becouse x didnt boot anymore | 02:37 |
| snowseal | i figured that package made a conflict. and it was a package i recently added.. after removal x booted again. | 02:37 |
| snowseal | maybe that has something to do with it. | 02:37 |
| nikkia | probably | 02:38 |

| nikkia | altho, in saying that, i have dri loaded in mine, and it doesn't stop nvidia loading | 02:39 |

| nikkia | snowseal, you don't need to do that | 03:23 |
| nikkia | snowseal, compiling the kernel yourself buys you nothing in terms of adding the nvidia drivers | 03:23 |
| nikkia | you might as well just remove the packages for the nvidia stuff, then download the .run file from nvidia and run it | 03:23 |

| nikkia | snowseal, the 686 kernel package is probably about as fast as you'll get anyway | 03:32 |
| nikkia | last time i checked, the kernel doesn't really make any use of floating point and/or SSE :) | 03:33 |

| hussam | would there a gain in performace? | 03:42 |
| nikkia | tm, the grub menu can get a bit daunting with 30 kernels though :) | 03:42 |
| snowseal | well, currently the processes run with the old 386 instruction set, while the p3 has way more efficient intructions, wich you currently dont use. | 03:42 |

| nikkia | bought a WD that was 20GB of bad sectors out the box | 05:49 |
| buz | mhh i had all manufacturers drives die on me | 05:50 |
| buz | so now i buy the most silent ones | 05:50 |
| buz | and so far, no samsung died | 05:50 |
| nikkia | (and when we took that back, they said 'oh yeah, that was a fault on all of that batch, we can replace it if you'd like' (from the same batch)) | 05:50 |
| yourghetek | ive had 5 drives die on me | 05:50 |
| buz | most important thing, keep yar drives cool | 05:50 |
| jbroome | and keep the receipt. :) | 05:50 |
| buz | usually i cant be bothered to rma them | 05:51 |
| buz | just not worth the trouble | 05:51 |
| nikkia | micropolis used to be the best :/ | 05:51 |
| buz | which is why they are bankrupt?? | 05:51 |
| nikkia | i still have a 20yo micropolis scsi drive somewhere that still works fine, is slow as treacle, but works | 05:51 |
| nikkia | buz, they were bought, iirc | 05:52 |
| nikkia | they were expensive, and they didn't catch on fast enough with the capacity race, thats why they had trouble | 05:52 |
| buz | what is it with those new extended availability drives? do they really last longer? | 05:53 |
| buz | i'll buy a bundle if its true | 05:53 |
| nikkia | buz, probably not | 05:53 |
| buz | their mtbf is much higher | 05:53 |
| nikkia | buz, its probably just the same kind of scam as an 'extended warranty' | 05:53 |
| buz | mhh seagate gives 5 year warranty anyhow | 05:53 |
| yourghetek | yeah i heard about that | 05:54 |
| nikkia | drives are cheap enough that i don't really care about warranty | 05:54 |
| nikkia | and if my drive dies, no amount of warranty is going to get my data back anyway | 05:54 |
| buz | exactly | 05:54 |
| yourghetek | then raid | 05:54 |
| buz | which is why i only buy drives in pairs | 05:54 |
| buz | i just dont get why sata drives are 20$ more | 05:55 |
| nikkia | buz, you're lucky its only $20, tbh | 05:56 |
| nikkia | many companies looked at SATA and thought back to the SCSI price reaming days | 05:56 |
| buz | mhh scsi drives are in fact sturdier built | 05:56 |
| nikkia | buz, not all | 05:56 |
| buz | we only ever have ide drives fail, practically no scsis ever | 05:57 |
| nikkia | buz, i used to be exclusively scsi | 05:57 |
| buz | but scsi needs even better cooling | 05:57 |
| buz | especially 12kprm | 05:57 |
| nikkia | most of the scsi drives i bought over the years, when i looked closely, they were exactly the same drive platters with a different controller board | 05:57 |
| buz | platters maybe | 05:57 |
| buz | but platters generally aren't the first thing to go bad | 05:57 |
| buz | usually the motors or the controller goes bad | 05:57 |
| nikkia | when i say 'platters' there, i mean platters, heads, motors, everything except the controller board | 05:58 |
| buz | not true these days | 05:58 |
| buz | many scsi drives in fact use smaller platters than they have cases | 05:58 |

| snowseal | i got a segfault when i run wine, it could be the video output, or it might conflict with wineX. how do i find the problem? | 07:12 |
| maddwarf | hi all. don;t know if anyone can help. I have a problem mounting my second hard disk. I am getting "Mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock, missing codepage or other error" message | 07:12 |
| maddwarf | (sorry for bad pasting, not used to this IRC) | 07:13 |
| maddwarf | my drive was a bootable slackware install, but i got a new HDD to install kubuntu, and that went fine, then I mounteed slack drive OK. after a reboot, i get these erros | 07:13 |
| snowseal | maddwarf, so how do you mount it? | 07:14 |
| snowseal | maddwarf, seems like you have to specify the fs type | 07:14 |
| snowseal | maybe the /etc/fstab has bad values | 07:14 |
| maddwarf | the drive is not defined in fstab, and I get the same errors when i specify the fs (ext3) | 07:15 |
| snowseal | mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb /mnt/slackware | 07:15 |
| snowseal | hmm. bad | 07:15 |
| snowseal | maybe the drive has some errors on it. | 07:16 |
| maddwarf | i mount it with "mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/slack" or "mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb1 /mnt/slack" | 07:16 |
| maddwarf | 8o( i hope the drive is OK ... i backed up recently, but there is some newer stuff i don;t want to lose ..... | 07:16 |
| snowseal | hmm hmm, you can try to check it with some tool. fsck if i remember right | 07:17 |
| mrmanic | fsck it | 07:17 |
| maddwarf | ok, am looking at man fsck now ... | 07:17 |
| snowseal | and the first partition on hdb is definately ext3 ? | 07:18 |
| maddwarf | pretty sure it is ext3 ... | 07:18 |
| nikkia | try 'auto' as the fs type | 07:19 |
| maddwarf | auto gives the same result 8o( | 07:19 |
| nikkia | you could use fdisk to check what the partition type is | 07:20 |
| nikkia | but that'll only tell you if its 'linux' or 'ntfs' or something | 07:20 |

| snowseal | scary | 07:24 |

| maddwarf | but fdisk is no longer reporting the error... | 07:24 |

| snowseal | well, reboot it, i am curious | 07:24 |
| maddwarf | yeah, i'm not sure, nikkia ... i'll reboot and return to let you know | 07:25 |

| zilone | I had gotten a friend to help me, and we tried a few things and so far it hasn't helped | 07:56 |
| snowseal | zilone, quick fix is to put a msdos floppy in it. boot it, and run fdisk, activate the windows partition. reboot. | 07:56 |
| maddwarf | this sounds familiar, from my dualboot slackware/win2k. i had to configure lilo to see the windows drive, and also make sure lilo was installed on the right drive (the windows drive, i think). it was a while back adn i can;t recall the dtails | 07:56 |
| zilone | He said it might be a problem with it being a SATA drive | 07:56 |
| zilone | I don't have a floppy drive though :( | 07:57 |
| snowseal | np | 07:57 |
| buz | mhh | 07:57 |
| buz | linux cant boot from sata if the bios tells the sata to run ide emulation i think | 07:57 |
| zilone | Hmm, windows xp and linux are both on a different drive though | 07:57 |
| snowseal | zilone, ok did you change the hard-disk order physically? | 07:57 |
| zilone | i did use the advance options during partition, and i remember setting the Linux drive as primary | 07:58 |
| zilone | didn't touch the hardware itself | 07:59 |
| snowseal | good | 07:59 |
| snowseal | probably you need to edit the grub.conf manually | 07:59 |

| snowseal | you can try to change the line: rootnoverify (hd1,0) into --> root (hd0,0) | 08:09 |
| snowseal | zilone, you did say that the windows option boots linux , right? | 08:09 |
| mikl | zilone: hda1 should be hd0,0 | 08:09 |
| zilone | err, the system loads Grub first | 08:09 |

| zilone | snowseal it didn't work :( told me it was an unrecognizable format | 08:18 |
| snowseal | what | 08:19 |
| snowseal | i suppose the config file was in an unrecgnised format? | 08:19 |
| zilone | gave me an error i think it was something like partition 38x0 or something | 08:19 |
| zilone | the config file? | 08:20 |
| zilone | hmm | 08:20 |
| snowseal | hmm indeed | 08:20 |
| zilone | how would i go about fixing this ?_? | 08:20 |
| snowseal | zilone you need to know your hd and partition layout. | 08:23 |
| zilone | hmm, well, the first harddrive that's suppose to be for windows isn't partitioned | 08:24 |
| snowseal | did you add an extra drive for linux? | 08:24 |
| zilone | add an extra drive? it was there to begin with really | 08:25 |
| snowseal | ok, im trying to get the picture here. | 08:25 |
| zilone | but i used another drive for linux, that's true | 08:25 |
| zilone | kk, first drive is a Western Digital 10,000 RPM i think the model was a Raptor, that's windows | 08:26 |
| zilone | Second drive is a Seagate Barracuda, 120 gigabytes, 5 gigs is for the user files, 15 gigs for the system files and 100 gigs is set up so Windows can use it as an NTFS partition | 08:26 |
| zilone | I hope that helps... | 08:27 |
| snowseal | ok, did you set the jumpers the same as before? i mean, maybe the extra drive you added is set to master and the windows drive is set to cs or somethin | 08:27 |
| zilone | i think i changed that during installation, i was afraid windows wouldn't allow me to boot into Linux, but i can almost swear i set it as primary, not master | 08:28 |
| zilone | is there some way to tell? | 08:29 |
| snowseal | zilone, if you got any means of booting into dos,or windows, you can fdisk /MBR to remove the bootloader, dont forget to activate the windows partition using fdisk. | 08:29 |
| zilone | i wish i had x_x | 08:29 |
| snowseal | hmmz, you do have a bootable windows cd. | 08:30 |
| snowseal | and im sure you can do the same using linux, but i dont kow the commands to do it. | 08:30 |
| zilone | hmm | 08:30 |
| zilone | kk, thanks for the help :) | 08:30 |
| zilone | i'll try and see if i can figure something else, if not i'll just have to uninstall Linux and go through the installation again till i get it right lol | 08:31 |

| === chase [~Chase@stuartma.gotadsl.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| godsmoke | MarcosGarcia: for actual slow computers -- kubuntu is not an ideal choice -- doing a minimal ubuntu install with a lightweight window manager would be best | 08:41 |
| MarcosGarcia | :( | 08:42 |
| godsmoke | KDE is a very complicated destop environment | 08:42 |
| godsmoke | requiring a significant processor and a decent amount of ram | 08:43 |
| godsmoke | if you have a slow computer -- it's not for you | 08:43 |
| godsmoke | using a window manager like xfce or fluxbox would be a much better choice | 08:43 |

| troy | okay, that means you should have a working sound driver at the kernel level- try going to the Control Center->Sound&Multimedia->Sound System; uncheck "Enable the sound system", apply; check "Enable the sound system", apply; hit Test Sound and see if you get sound | 10:17 |

| nikkia | hmmm, i wish KDE had something like audacity :/ | 10:19 |
| Venom | i don't have audacity | 10:19 |
| Venom | i have Typhoon Acoustic Six | 10:20 |
| nikkia | eh? | 10:20 |
| Venom | ops sorry | 10:20 |
| nikkia | audacity, its a multitrack audio recording program | 10:21 |
| nikkia | but it uses OSS and some very gnome-like look and feel | 10:21 |
| gdh | uses GTK1 :/ | 10:21 |
| apollo2011 | gdh: looks like that will work. You select the device and it puts the conf in the /boot, and then applies it to the mbr, which is the part I wiped out on purpose | 10:21 |
| nikkia | gdh, i suspected as much | 10:21 |
| gdh | nice piece of software, just needs brought up to date :) | 10:21 |
| apollo2011 | gdh: I can also backup my /boot and then replace to get back the config I have now | 10:22 |
| nikkia | gdh, something that uses arts, or even just alsa, and had a nicer UI would be very welcome | 10:22 |
| nikkia | gdh, yeah, altho the plugin system seems to be terrible | 10:22 |
| gdh | dep. on GTK isn't a problem, just not on GNOME itself :) | 10:22 |
| gdh | nikkia: I'm not an audiophile.. I just use such apps for cutting bits out of mp3s to make nice looping ringtones mostly :) | 10:22 |
| apollo2011 | whoa I just moved the mouse to the edge of the screen and it scrolled the view of the desktop over to the left and then reset itself | 10:22 |
