nikkiatwidget, setting the period_size or buffer_size values in that file to higher values might improve things12:10
nikkiathey have to be powers of 2 though12:10
twidgetk12:10
nikkiaso i'd try either setting period_size to 4096, or buffer_size to 6553612:10
twidgetwhat about both ;D12:11
nikkiawell, that might work too12:11

TestMADanyone here that can help me?12:51
nikkiatwidget, do mp3s skip ?12:52
js_TestMAD: just ask your question12:52
twidgetI was just thinking about that. I'll rip a CD, then try12:52
TestMADgot issues with amd64 live cd12:52
TestMADi get through the boot..12:52
twidgetUmmm... what do I use to rip? :)12:53
nikkiatwidget, i use kaudiocreator12:53
TestMADthen the screen goes black except for a non flashing cursor in the upper left hand corner of my screen..12:53
nikkiabut i don't think its in the repositories12:53
TestMADthen i hear the login sound.12:53
TestMADand thats it..no more after that.12:54
nikkiaactually, it might be, as it doesn't do any encoding itself, it relies on lame12:54
twidgetencoder of choice?12:54
nikkiatwidget, if you want to encode mp3s, lame's pretty good12:54
TestMADcould it be cause if have 2 6600gt's in sli?12:55
nikkiai usually encode to m4a tho, and use faac12:55
nikkiatestmad, possibly12:55
twidgetwhere does it rip them to?12:55
nikkiatwidget, wherever you tell it to12:55
TestMADthe live cd just uses generic drivers right?12:55
nikkiatestmad, yes12:56
TestMADok..then the vid would be mt problem then..will the install cd have the nvidia drivers and detect it on install?12:56
nikkianope12:57
nikkiayou have to install them seperately12:57
TestMADok..12:57
TestMADwell then i guess im not gonna have any luck using ubunto then12:58
nikkiatestmad, i can't think of any distro that'll install the nvidia binary drivers by default12:58
TestMADlots of distros say they support nvidia..12:58
nikkiayes, but bundling the nvidia drivers with the distro is technically illegal12:59
nikkia'support' != 'install by default'12:59
TestMADi dont see y its illegal12:59
nikkiaits a licensing issue01:00
TestMADok.01:00
TestMADso is there a way around this w/o tearing my pc apart just to flip the little card inside over?01:00
Mezhuh TestMAD ?01:00
nikkiathe install CD installs in text mode...01:00
nikkiaso that should be ok01:00
nikkiathen you just need to boot without X after installing, and install the binary drivers...01:01
nikkiayou can do that by booting with runlevel 101:01
TestMADok..super noob here..never used linux before..so pls explain how01:01
MezTestMAD, do you use both graphics cards?#01:02
TestMADso live runlevel1?01:02
TestMADyes i use both01:02
Mezcennect your montior to the other one and see whether it works ;)01:02
TestMADno..i use both in sli.01:02
TestMADnot dual monitor01:02
MezSli ?01:02
nikkiatestmad, the point is, the driver is only picking up on the first card01:03
nikkiaso switch the video cable to the other card for the purpose of installation01:03
nikkiaits a lot easier than ripping a PC apart01:03
TestMADok..ill try that..but i would think that it would see the card in the first pci slot01:03
MezTestMAD, actualy01:03
TestMADnot the second01:03
Mezwhen you hit the cursor with the login sound01:03
TestMADand im using the first01:03
Mezhit alt+f101:03
Mezthen login there and run01:03
nikkiatestmad, the order of PCI slots isn't necessarily the same as the physical order01:04
nikkiatestmad, what *seems* the first slot, may well not be01:04
TestMADok01:04
Mezlspci01:04
Mezand see if it shows anyting01:04
TestMADok.01:04
nikkiamez, ctrl-alt-f101:04
TestMADill..give those a try01:04
TestMADbrb01:04
Mezactually, yes, use ctrl alt f101:04
TestMADok01:04
Mez(incase X IS running)01:04
nikkiaX must be running01:05
nikkiaor else it wouldn't play the sound01:05

aseigoSpeedy2: if you wish to restore the panels... just rm ~/.kde/share/config/kickerrc02:44
aseigoSpeedy2: you'll probalby want to kill kicker first though.. so.. open a konsole and do:02:45
aseigodcopquit kicker; rm ~/.kde/share/config/kickerrc; kicker02:45
Speedy2aseigo: 10-4, I re-setup Kubuntu so kdm isn't automatically loaded02:45
Speedy2aseigo: I can quit X and do it from the console.  KDE normally runs with it's "First Time Wizard" which sets up defaults, etc.  Anyway to invoke that?  I'd like to try to get this KDE as close to "stock" as possible02:45
insanekaneSpeedy2: umm yes ... there is a way02:46
aseigoSpeedy2: run kpersonalizer02:47

Speedy2Hrm.  before launching this session of KDE, I did a mv .kde .kde_old and mv .qt .qt_old -- kicker still looks like Ubuntu defaults02:48
Speedy2err Kubuntu02:48
insanekane.kickerrc ?02:49
Speedy2insanekane: Well I did a mv of the entire .kde folder, I would assume it would revert back to KDE defaults...maybe it's reverting back to Kubuntu defaults?02:51
insanekaneor maybe, kicker is not picking its defaults from .kde (maybe because you havent changed anything from the system defaults ?)02:52
Speedy2hrm02:52
aseigoinsanekane: ~/.kde/share/config/kickerrc02:53
insanekaneaseigo: but he moved it already02:53
aseigoSpeedy2: careful with mv'ing all of your $KDEHOME (~/.kde) as there are all sorts of things in there like addressbooks and what not02:53

stibbyIf OSS is almost obselete, and ALSA is the standard, how come OSS is the only thing that will work fairly with my sound card? Is it due to the fact that alsa never made a driver for the specific card? I have a turtle beach catalina. It uses an ICE1724 chipset.03:53
stibbythe only program that will play sound is XMMS, while using an OSS driver.03:53
stibbythis, unfortunately, prohibits me from utilizing amarok and just about any other media player :/03:53
insanekanehmm03:54
insanekanedid u check the ALSA website regarding the model of your sound card ?03:54
stibbyyep03:55
stibbythey don't even have it listed03:55
stibbyyet...I can set the volume of the music i hear with alsa03:55
stibbyand it comes up with a card name03:56
stibbyI don't think the card name is correct, but nevertheless, it does find it03:56
insanekanehmm03:56
stibbyI only want to get alsa support because i'm having OSS software issues...in XMMS my songs can't repeat :/03:56
stibbyits really, really, weird.03:56
insanekanei remember reading "Turtle beach" back when recompilingthe kernel03:57
insanekanestibby: have u tried changing the backend in amarok ?03:57
stibbyyep03:57
stibbytried everything03:57
insanekanehmm03:57
stibbyconfigured the sound servers in just about every way possible03:57
stibbyin the KDE control center I can't hear any sound at all, so that only complicates things further.03:58
stibbyin XMMS, it detects the card with alsa, but says somethign else is blocking it or it isn't configured03:58
drawagoatanyone know where i can stream good internet radio fo free?03:59
stibbyin "alsamixer" i've turned everything on and volume to maximum.03:59
insanekanedrawagoat: di.fm03:59
insanekanestibby: any specific error message ?04:00
drawagoatmmmk thanks04:00
insanekanestibby: have you googled for anything related to your problem ?04:02
stibbyinsanekane: i've googled and there seems to be no official driver for this card04:02
stibbyi never got any error messages04:02
stibbythat i'm familiar with04:02
insanekanebut says somethign else is blocking it or it isn't configured <- ??04:03
stibbyits amazing there aren't more drivers for Turtle Beach. They are really great cards. Unlike that SoundBlaster sh1704:03
stibbyinsanekane: the xmms error message says that but also says there is a possibility of bad drivers04:03
insanekaneaha04:03
stibbyperhaps to be safe I shoudl kill everything but xmms04:05
stibbyinsandkane: from google searching:04:06
stibby"04:06
stibbyI was wondering, but a check on http://www.opensound.com/osshw.html04:06
stibbydoesn't show the Catalina. It seems there is currently no Linux support04:06

othernoobyea i understand that bbailey, but everyone tells them to just use sudo for everything instead07:13

jay316Hi11:04
jay316Okay, right to the brass tacks.. I installed Ubuntu Hoary, and did an apt-get install kubuntu-desktop. the following packages did not install, and some of them are quite important to kde. all of them gave an md5sum mismatch11:05
jay316akregator ark kuser psutils kfind kwifimanager kmailcvt klaptopdaemon kregexpeditor kdeutils11:05
jay316im particularly concerned by kfind, but ark, kregexpeditor, and kuser are pretty important to me as well11:06
nikkiafrom what i've seen, its a problem with the US download location11:07
jpatrickthat's right11:07
jay316okay, so all i need to do is edit sources.list and change the us. to ??. ?11:08
nikkiaapparently, taking the us. from the front of the repository locations in /etc/apt/sources.list, then apt-get update should cure it11:08
jpatrickarchive11:08
jay316thank you very much :)11:08
=== jay316 can't wait to get the *&^% out of gnome
jay316are there sources that need to be added in order to get things like rar, ncompress, gv, and arj?11:11
jay316because im being told that they have no installation candidate11:12
jay316(removing the .us worked, btw)11:12
nikkiathey're probably in multiverse or universe11:12
nikkiamultiverse11:12
nikkiaand universe for arj, so you'd want to add both11:13
jay316# deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary universe11:14
jay316# deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary universe11:14
jay316 <-- Would I change universe to multiverse in order to add the multiverse archives as well?11:14
nikkiajust try uncommenting them first, i can't remember if universe is a superset of multiverse11:14
nikkiaif rar doesn't show up, then yes, duplicate and change universe->multiverse11:14
nikkiai have both listed in my sources, but i can't remember if i did that unthinking, or had a reason :)11:15
jay316rar has no candidate, so i need to add multiverse11:15
nikkiaok, then i probably had a reason :)11:16
jay316without seeing kde, so far i have to say ubuntu is pretty slick11:17

newbiecan i share folder with samba over the internet?11:18
jay316since i have your attention, let me pick your brain one more time. How do I enable root? I'm used to doing things a certain way (former knoppix/deb sid/sarge user), and not having root is just strange11:18
jay316newbie: that's exactly what samba does11:19
newbiejay316 so how can i connect to my shared folder on the internet lets say using ie11:19
nikkiajay, its better to get out of that habit, really, sudo -s and sudo -i are a good substitute for su when you *really* need a shell as root11:19
nikkiajay, but if you really feel you need to enable root, 'sudo passwd'11:20
nikkiajay, once you're used to sudo, its faster too, sudo -e is particularly useful11:20
jay316well, first you need to make sure that port 139 is forwarded ont he router where your shared folder is, or you're using uPNP. Once you've done that, you go to the network neighborhood and add a network place using 11.22.33.44/sharename11:21
nikkiamost ISPs block 139 now anyway11:21
jay316i do use sudo, that's not the point :>11:21
jay316anyways, im gonna reboot this beast and start up kde to see how i like kubuntu, ill brb11:21
newbiehay i have static ip address so no problem there11:23

nikkiayes?11:32
jay316kynaptic is pretty, but rather lacking11:32
newbieremind you of what11:32
nikkiaoh, yeah, i use aptitude11:32
newbiesynaptic is much better11:32
jay316synaptic is your friend :D11:32
newbieand aptitude is cleaner11:32
aseigosynaptic is pretty useless as well11:32
nikkiathe only issue with aptitude, is i can't work out htf you install a source package, i don't think you can :/11:32
aseigoif you install any packages that have post-install scripts that require user input, you're screwed11:32
nikkianot that its something most people need to do anyway11:33
aseigonot to mention the UI is highly non-intuitive. once you know where things are hidden, it's ok, but just ok11:34
jay316okay, im used to an app from kde in knoppix called screen size & rotate, but i dont see it on my menu anywhere.. anybody know where it is?11:34

othernoobsounds like i should become a software engineer as well. i don't like getting up in the morning :)03:23
nikkiaothernoob: i tend to work harder when i'm working at home03:23
Kamping_Kaiserhonestly, what sort of slacker are you  :P03:23
nikkiainstead of getting up at 7:30, idling til 8:30, getting to the office at 9, and then 'working', at home i tend to get up at 8, get coffee and start working at 8:1003:23
othernoobwhat the hell is wrong with you :p03:24
nikkiaalso, when i'm working at home, i tend to work thru til 7 most nights, and 11-3am other nights03:24

nikkiaothernoob: wasn't interested in leaving my current job03:25
othernoobwell of course..that's a valid reason03:26
nikkiaothernoob: it was a bit weird tho03:26
othernoobwhy?03:26
nikkiaat the time, my current employer was talking about closing the offices and moving, and i told them i had no interest in upping and moving somewhere else03:26
=== cornelinux [~corny@dsl-084-058-036-000.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu
nikkiaso i had to think a bit about whether i'd take the offer, it'd mean upping and moving too, but it would be more pay, and a cheaper area to live in, and that'd be ALMOST worth it03:27
nikkiain the end, my employer decided to 'not move far' anyway, although we still don't know where too03:27
nikkiaif worst comes to the worst, there is a lack of decent talent in this industry anyway, so i could just call up the recruiter and tell him i want a new job, and i'd probably have something in a couple of weeks03:28
othernoobi see03:29

=== osmandemirhan [~osman@85.100.66.26] has joined #kubuntu
othernoobnot sure about that. so far, the only obvious pro for functional programming i could think of was learning recursion..03:33
othernooband a lot less to type03:33
nikkiaothernoob: some types of processing are just easier with functional languages03:33
othernoobyea i can understand that, but functional languages are slow and ressourcehungry03:34
nikkiadepends what you're comparing them to, and trying to do03:34
othernoobthen again. java appears to be ressourcehungry as well.03:34
nikkiamy favourite approach is C/C++ for GUI/stuff that is used a lot, and embedded scheme for overall algorithm03:35

nikkiathe adventure was always supposed to be multi-user, but it was just too hard to do on VMS with Pascal03:57

leohello everyone.  has anyone had problems with kde not being aware of changes to folders automatically?  ie if I copy things to the desktop they sometimes dont show up.. I have to go to the desktop folder in konqi and hit refresh11:55

leolibfam is installed. but it seems that apps are not being notified of changes to the filesystem11:55
apokryphosfromoze: you shouldn't really be using breezy, but xorg-common should bring in all the necessary stuff, I would have thought11:57
apokryphosleo: that's an actual KDE bug. Are you experienced it anywhere else but on the desktop?11:58
apokryphos*experiencing11:58
leoit happens in konqueror too sometimes.. say I'm in a folder and I copy some files to it.. those files won't show up in the list until I hit refresh11:59
leoits odd though.. in plain debian this worked fine11:59
leoonly see this in kubuntu11:59
leooh wait.. scratch that folder issue.  seems to be working now12:00
