After file is there a developer that has to move to project site repo. What I did not know was that the tilde in the file name was preventing it from uploading. [03:30] could someone help me with a make error I keep getting.. [03:30] ralph1: Not sure why it would, but hey. You can just change the name after uploading it, I guess.

Check the man page [03:32] brb [03:32] apokryphos: That is what I am hoping happens. Do not want to break the ability to seamlessly update when program gets in to main repositories.

From what he said and I have read, the tilde is need to allow updating to work correctly when the program/file makes it to main repositories. In at least one case on of my backported files that seth made did get updated with the same version from the main repos. So the tilde works. [03:37] apokryphos: can I force a check on next reboot?

You shouldn't ever really have to do a fresh install [03:41] apokryphos: The file was named kmymoney2_0.7.4-0ubuntu1~5.04ubp1_i386.deb, I guess with out the tilde part it would never get up dated with a file same version from main repositories.

[10:55] brent: whats the error ? [10:56] ok thanks kane. ppp daemon died unexpectedly"it disconnects and gives me the message " [10:56] oops [10:56] did you understand that? [10:57] it says ppp died unexpectedly [10:57] yes [10:57] it dials, you get the connection, and it dies ? [10:57] i enter in the same information as i did using soudo pppconfig command [10:58] ie, tyhe modem name-> /dev/modem ? [10:58] id like to just be able to use kppp, like i can with knoppix, mepis, and linspire. I just happen to like kubuntu distro better, maybr, lol [10:59] did you query the modem to see if KPP has recognized it ? [10:59] yeah [10:59] it does [10:59] brent, sounds like a pap/chap issue [10:59] then it dials up, but then unexpectedly dies i did ln-s to create a logical shortcut to /dev/modem. does that sound right? === JakubS [~qba@ain130.internetdsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #kubuntu [11:00] really? so what would you suggest? [11:00] if you turn on ppp debugging, it might give you more info, but i would guess its going to give you some auth messages right before it disconnect [11:00] brent, getting pap/chap 'right' can be a pain, some ISPs send bogus username auths, and you have to tell them to force your known username [11:01] yeah it just says ppp daemon died unexpectedly. I am obviously online now, but im not sure how and it wasn't through kppp. ive been going through ubuntu forumes and guides for hours now, lol [11:02] well, it wasnt an issue at all when i booted from knoppix, this only happens with kubuntu for some reason, am i missing some setting that knoppix/linspire live has automatically set?

[11:07] see, the basic premise is thus... the server goes 'ok, you're blah129802, what's your password?', a MS client will go 'no, i'm blah!' and wait for a second attempt, pppd by default goes 'erk, i don't have a password for that name!' === _cj is now known as Zactivix [11:08] so what can i do then? just tell them to let me log on? and how come i can log on using sudo pon? (i think) === Zactivix is now known as Zactivix|Zzz [11:09] i mean i got on now somehow, but i dont like doing it this way, and others who use my computer are farrr more computer illiterate than i. i studied about computers in college, just not linux. [11:10] brent, there are a couple of approachs, there is a config variable for pppd that tells it to force the username, which does basically the same as the MS client, ie, goes 'no that's not me, i'm blah', you can also edit pap/chap -secrets in /etc/ppp and make them always use the same password regardless of the username asked, but that isn't a good idea if you use more than one ISP [11:10] mainly novell and w2K server === apokryphos [~dw@host-87-74-29-35.bulldogdsl.com] has joined #kubuntu [11:10] brent, using the 'force username' option, if you do things right, you can set that ppp option outside of the main ppp config, and thus use more than 1 ISP, but it can be complicated [11:11] brent, the real question is, how did you get on now, and why is it different from what kppp is doing ? [11:11] and then 'how can you make kppp *do that*' [11:11] i only use 1 isp to dial out. is there a command i need? can i open this file from konkorer? [11:11] exactly! [11:11] mornin' nikkia :) [11:12] i used pppconfig command [11:12] then went through the little dialogs [11:12] im positive i set it exactly the same as kppp, which is why im so perplexed at the situation [11:13] ive been up all night trying to figure it out. [11:14] good thing i picked using my vacation to try to figure this out [11:14] brent, try disconnecting, and reconnecting with kppp [11:14] nikka you said "you can set that ppp option outside of the main ppp config", how can this be done? [11:14] its possible that pppconfig has modified the dialup stuff in a way that will make kppp work now [11:15] i have tried it since and it didnt work, but ill try again. lets cross fingers, but i hope if it does not work that i can still get back on [11:15] brent, what i meant by that, is that there is a central /etc/ppp/options that is used for *all* dialup targets (different ISPs/VPNs/etc) but then there are also per-target options files [11:16] one thing, i think that pon daemon is running, so i just hit home in firefox and it dials up? is this relevant at all? [11:16] brent: im sorry ... i was away answering a phone call .. but i see you have got some help from the expert :) [11:18] its kool, sorry to be such a noob, but i gotta learn sometime. ill be glad to help anyone else once i learn for myself:) === jcoxon [~james@81-178-196-82.dsl.pipex.com] has joined #kubuntu [11:19] nikkia, i opened that /etc/ppp/options with kwrite. im still confused. are these instructions? [11:19] brent, its not really relevant to the configuration, but if that is the case, then i'm not sure i'd really bother with kppp, if its set to dialup automatically, then you're pretty much in a good situation, as far as i would consider [11:19] brent, no, don't edit the ppp options yet [11:20] brent, check if pppconfig has changed enough to get kppp working, first [11:20] ok here goes === Kamping_Kaiser [~kaiser@ppp198-41.lns1.adl1.internode.on.net] has joined #kubuntu === _brent [~brent@hope-ppp2.trianglenet.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:25] <_brent> this sucks. i think i need a nap === Kamping_Kaiser puts _brent to sleep [11:31] brent, the next thing to do, is to look at what pppconfig does, and compare it to kppp's options === lordpatman [~lordpatma@ACB60984.ipt.aol.com] has joined #kubuntu === Mez [~Mez@cpc2-lich4-3-0-cust115.brhm.cable.ntl.com] has joined #kubuntu === wincide [~trax@82.Red-83-46-127.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu === brent_ [~brent@hope-ppp5.trianglenet.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:42] hello im back [11:42] still no good for those that care] [11:43] hello nikkia and kane === amu [~amu@dsl-082-083-247-122.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:44] i did what you suggested nikkia, i even went as far as rebooting, thinking that maybe that was necessary or something. i tried kppp and got the same message again. kppp daemon died unexpectedly. === Mose` [~edvardas@85.206.120.207] has joined #kubuntu [11:44] i can connect using sudo pon.

[12:03] marsh: crossover lead == peer2peer cable right ? [12:04] LET ME CHECK IT...

[12:05] marsh: yes [12:05] just "plug and go"? [12:05] but i'd be more tempted to say that the cards are MDI sensing [12:05] marsh: i got ping in about 2 minutes [12:05] MDI can get confused if both sense it, and you use a cross-over cable [12:06] nikkia: MDI [12:06] ? [12:06] marsh, media direction something-or-other [12:06] ping = destination host unreachable [12:06] marsh, it means the card senses if it is connected to a ethernet port or switch port, and 'pretends' to crossover as required [12:07] marsh, ie, if you connect a straight-thru ethernet cable between two MDI sensing machines, one of them will switch to crossover mode and 'it will just work' [12:07] most recent cards/onboard ethernet is MDI sensing, as are recent switches [12:07] that said, there is probably a module parameter to turn it off :) [12:08] nikkia - my p3 800 may be a bit old for that though, yes? [12:08] (both of them) [12:09] marsh, hard to say, MDI has been around a few years, though not always supported [12:09] I'll make the cable. best to minimise on possibilities, eh [12:09] marsh, if they're that old tho, its more likely that you're not doing something right ifconfig-wise [12:10] the onboard cards work well. the other one seemed to install easy [12:11] marsh: on computer A: sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 and on computer B: sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.2 [12:11] set up netmask as 255.255.255.0 on both machines [12:11] then ping [12:11] it works for me [12:12] marsh: with kubuntu, things become even easier, with System->Settings->Internet->Network Settings [12:12] insanekane: they are set up to 192.168.0.1/2 and they do have a netmask of 255.255.255.0 :( [12:12] I'll doi the cable... === xe|| [~xell@chello080108045106.6.11.vie.surfer.at] has joined #kubuntu [12:14] insanekane: you say that, but in Kubuntu I dont have a system>settings Hehehe...

[12:34] nope [12:34] insanekane: *shrug*, you're also missing 'the video game industry' and 'telecoms control software' in between the two :) [12:34] atleast that was the case for me ... nikkia though would be the person to ask [12:34] nikkia - you writing roulette? [12:34] 0 or 00? [12:34] marsh, have been, for the last 3 months [12:34] marsh, single 0, european market (for spain) [12:35] Hehehe... I dealt roullette for over 10 years. [12:35] (and still can't spell it lol) [12:36] actually, thats not true... [12:36] <-- to the drawing board [12:36] i've been writing roulette for the last 7 months [12:36] as i had to do a UK market roulette before this :) [12:36] nikkia - why so difficult? just the aesthetics? [12:36] srely the game itself isn't that difficult? [12:37] marsh, no, actually, the aesthetics were almost identical [12:37] after all - 's pretty basic as rules go, isn't it? [12:37] the difference is, different hardware/OS (UK market was NT) and UK market was FOB whereas spanish is AWP === jens [~JensK@p549073A8.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:37] whats FOB & AWP? [12:38] marsh: FOB = Fixed Odds Betting, AWP = Amusement with prizes [12:38] and why are the UK markets always the ones stupid enough to use NT :( [12:38] marsh: basically, FOB is governed by random numbers, and the winning percentage is based on the odds of winning properly [12:38] AWP is controlled, so you have a specific percentage that the machine must pay out, and it adjusts whether you win or not to reach that goal [12:38] whats NT ? [12:38] insanekane: Windows NT [12:39] oh right :) [12:39] thought it was a game scheme [12:39] ok - and the prizes? you couldn't just use crdeits and rate them against prizes? [12:39] 4.0 so no DirectX or anything like that :) [12:39] nikkia: are you a freelancer ? [12:39] insanekane: no [12:40] ok [12:40] marsh: AWP must be controlled, you can't just say 'ok, roulette pays 97%, that's more than the 80% the machine is set to', so you have to somehow affect the outcome based on whether you need to increase or decrease the current running percentage [12:40] nikkia: the AWP - the prizes are cash? [12:40] marsh: yes [12:41] marsh: its far more complicated in spain tho :) [12:41] Aaahhh... I see... [12:41] nik...? [12:41] why like this? [12:41] marsh: basically, you play a sub-game to win chips from cash, and then play those chips in roulette, which you can then collect the winning chips from as either more chips or cash [12:41] nikkia: - so the AWP's are for the greedy corps... [12:42] marsh: not really, its a bit complicated [12:42] not just that they want bigger %'s [12:42] ? [12:42] marsh, AWP has both positive and negative sides, in that it *has* to pay out, as well as it having *not* to pay out :) [12:43] marsh, greedy corps would love something like fixed odds where the odds are 1 in 100 :) [12:43] nikkia: spain sounds complicated -that a legal requirement/loophole [12:43] marsh, yes, its all legal requirements [12:43] gambling laws in europe tend to be complicated (not just spain, and they vary from area to area) [12:44] but surely the standard game will take it's long term % (1 in 37), and will have to pay out in the long run due to those fixed odds... ?!?! [12:44] marsh, another annoyance of the laws are things like timing, there is often minimum game time, and so on [12:44] Aaaahh... I see... [12:44] Timing [12:44] the answer to all things [12:45] ... [12:45] still, 3 months is good :) [12:45] not bad - it'd take me that long just to know what they wanted! [12:45] the other team progamming on the same kit has been working 14 months on their project, which is technically more simple than roulette, and they STILL have major bugs :) [12:45] they got torn a new one by email yesterday :) [12:45] so much for the nice easy game of roulette.. [12:46] marsh, almost 100% of my time was actually spent in the presentation/flow [12:46] marsh, i had a basic roulette rule system running within about 2 hours :) [12:46] nikkia: as it should be! === Court-Jus [~Court-Jus@court-jus.net] has joined #kubuntu [12:46] the hard part is tieing everything together, getting video playback 'right', getting all the interconnection of the game states, etc [12:46] (although my codings shite & would have taken days) [12:47] nikkia: I'm with ya [12:47] marsh, i prefer this industry over the 'video game' industry tho [12:47] marsh, shorter projects, more feeling of self-worth, you're not a small cog on a 2-year-long project [12:48] nikkia - gambling, you mean?

[12:49] marsh, i have no idea what my next project is, though, thankfully, i don't have to worry about it yet, i'm on holiday next week :) [12:49] Heyhey! congrats nikkia! [12:49] anywhere nice? [12:49] marsh: in some ways, but usually you start a 'video game' with a set of design documents that outline the gameplay anyway [12:49] marsh, nah, just lounging around at home [12:49] insanekane: apt-cache search stl | grep doc >> stl-manual ? [12:50] nikkia: but the pressure's off though - you UK? [12:50] hello! knows anybody something about a local desktop wiki system for kde like the newton system from gnome? [12:50] marsh, yeah, UK [12:51] and not gonna take advantage of the wonderfull weather coming up?

Wow Kubuntu is indeed the best kde based distro ever. [02:10] hussam: indeed :) [02:11] Not all distros will give you the most recent kde version. [02:11] i wont use one that doesnt ;) [02:12] now how do i add that as rep? [02:13] I'm guessing: deb ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.4.2/kubuntu/ hoary-updates main [02:13] I'll try that now === paines [~al@p508909C3.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu [02:13] hi [02:13] i'm gonna give it a shot [02:14] anyone know a kde tool which i can use to connect to a nokia mobile phone to sync phone numbers and stuff [02:14] and which is availbale in kubuntu [02:14] what is secpolicy [02:15] it wants to update that [02:15] secpolicy - KDE PAM security policy configuration tool === buz thinks more and more that going kubuntu was the right choice [02:16] now if only someone would package browsers and thunderbird when they get updated [02:17] <_erik> what about a firewall for kubuntu ? [02:17] guarddog [02:18] what is "kitchensync" ? [02:18] <_erik> is there a basic firewall on the system? or must I install one ? [02:19] _erik: try guarddog, it lets you close and open ports via point and click [02:19] it straight forward [02:19] <_erik> shorewall can be updated too [02:19] <_erik> ill try both === claydoh [~claydoh@65.99.186.141] has joined #kubuntu === apokryphos gets bored so goes to download liveCD [02:23] 3.4.2 upgrade downloaded [02:23] installing [02:23] it's still not anounced, funnily enough [02:23] who cares [02:23] what ? === thoreauputic_ [~prospero@wolax8-148.dialup.optusnet.com.au] has joined #kubuntu [02:23] kde 3.4.2 [02:23] kde 3.4.2 is out and no announce ?

I've tried many distros and kubuntu seems more and more to be the best choice. [02:24] so, i have to vbecome developer [02:24] paines [02:24] secpolicy - KDE PAM security policy configuration tool [02:24] no wait [02:24] i wanted to paste the repository url [02:24] paines: well, no -- kubuntu devs got it some time ago, so it's in a repository === apokryphos goes to get it [02:25] cool. [02:25] deb ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.4.2/kubuntu/ hoary-updates [02:25] woudl be better to get it from a mirror i guess [02:25] thanks guys [02:25] ta [02:25] once slashdot gets word kde will go down [02:25] you'll have to do a dist-upgrade as it needs to install additional stuff. [02:25] as always [02:25] doing linux since 95, and seen many things [02:25] hussam: really? What like? [02:25] but ubuntu project is one of the coolest [02:25] mhh dist-upgrade? really? [02:25] what does it need? [02:26] tho i run dist-upgrade every once in a while [02:26] so i might be fine === apokryphos still thinks this should all be in backports [02:26] apokryphos: kpovmodeler, krec , ksirc ...

[02:27] hussam: I'd only really want stuff that kubuntu-desktop would bring in, anyhow. [02:27] apokryphos: also kaboodle. [02:27] well kdeadmin would come with kubuntu-desktop i guess [02:27] apokryphos: with regular upgrade, it will hold some updates [02:27] and likely not work very smooth [02:27] so dist-upgrade [02:28] buz: err, why wouldn't it be smooth? [02:28] who knows what happens if you use kdeadmin 3.4.1 with otherwise 3.4.2 [02:28] also kdenetwork [02:28] confused. Why would that happen? [02:28] cause kdeadmin came in with the dist-upgrade [02:28] wasnt upgraded otherwise [02:29] "kdeadmin kdebase kdegraphics kdemultimedia kdenetwork kdeutils" [02:29] kubuntu-desktop doesn't depend on it? [02:29] i really rather have those upgraded as well [02:29] Gotta do something; will check this in a sec [02:29] well i'll restart x [02:29] that is what i have to do right?

I haven't got to it yet so I don't know for sure [02:32] writing an email; brb [02:32] well it seems some rather core stuff doesnt get upgraded without dist-upgrade [02:32] hussam did you try plain upgrade?

Having trouble with administrator mode to set up networking. i enter my password to enter admin mode, it says "loading" with the red box, then it just disappears and dumps me back to the control center page [02:39] no sorry, main is in there as well [02:39] mentat-: alt+f2 -> kdesu kcontrol [02:39] i didnt notice it got concatenaed with my prompt as i didnt have a trailing slash [02:39] newline i mean [02:39] mentat: that happenes sometimes [02:40] it was odd... i had the lappie with me at work (with no network connections available) and admin mode worked. i get it home to actually plug it into the net, and i can't configure [02:40] I've a small question about my installation. I'm working in a chroot environment to prepare kubuntu for booting. Only i can not install a kernel because mkinitrd complains about /dev/hda4 not being a block device. Probably something with udev? does anyone know how to solve this? [02:40] toma: [02:40] mentat-: yup, it's a known bug. [02:40] toma: yes, you need to regen initrd [02:41] buz: do you not have anything else? I still get an error ( http://pastebin.com/323652 ) [02:41] oh ok good, thought it was just me. having absolute shite luck with computers lately [02:41] insanekane: sorry, i don't understand... [02:41] did you add main? [02:41] toma: err, sorry, wrong fix :) [02:41] buz: correct [02:42] apokryphos: that command didn't seem to do anything - it asked for my password and disappeared too. [02:42] buz: nevermind, I'll use Kubuntu's repo [02:42] apokryphos: http://pastebin.com/323653 [02:42] mentat-: kcontrol didn't start up? [02:42] nope... it asked for my pw, which i entered, and then nothing [02:42] mentat-: close all versions of kcontrol, then alt+f2 -> kcontrol. You should be running kcontrol in admin mode [02:43] mentat-: your *user* password, right? [02:43] yup [02:43] mentat-: ok, try running sudo kcontrol in Konsole [02:43] kcontrol = control center? [02:43] Correct [02:43] insanekane: any idea? [02:43] i had trouble with admin mode ... after i set a root password with sudo passwd, it started working [02:43] buz: heh, interesting. No worries; kubuntu seems to work fine. [02:43] holy crap [02:43] that must be against human rights: http://www.david-hasselhoff.com/downloads/pingudance.mp3 [02:44] insanekane: kcontrol doesn't use the root password at all [02:44] mentat-: oh wait, what version of KDE are you running? [02:45] hoary [02:45] i guess i cant switch then. Stuck to debian [02:45] hussam, buz: ah, I see -- the kubuntu-desktop pack hasn't been updated, that's why. [02:45] i think [02:45] toma: i had some errors with kernel not booting because it claimed my partition was not a block device ... the fix was to regenerate initrd, using mkinitrd ... since you get bug with mkinitrd, i think the fix for my problem doesnt apply to u [02:45] insanekane: right. [02:45] mentat-: add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://kubuntu.org/hoary-kde342 hoary-updates main ; then sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get upgrade [02:45] mentat-: try by setting a root password ... it did work for me .. dunno how it will work for you though [02:46] ooh errors when sudo kcontrol from console, a bunch of stuff saying "owned by udi 1000 instead of uid 0" === kryton [~kryton@82.Red-83-51-158.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu === apokryphos wonders what version of amaroK is in 3.4.2 repo === kryton is now known as Kryton [02:46] kane: tried that too but no luck... basically i reinstalled while at work last night, and the first time i went to kcontrol>network settings the admin login worked [02:46] but since then, nothing [02:46] mentat-: try kdesu kcontrol [02:46] Looks like your permissions are a little mucked up there :| [02:47] poop [02:47] this is a fresh install from last night [02:47] amarok 1.2.3 [02:47] mentat-: is this a new user, by any chance?
