You've got, like, --\ New Programs ... [03:10] hmm [03:10] <_justin> OOO [03:10] n0odl3: basically, what you want to do, is remove the package that everything else with kde depends on, so all that will go away too [03:10] im just worried cause i cant get any updates [03:11] and then indented a little --\ doc ... [03:11] <_justin> \packages which depend on wine [03:11] is there some special package for kde users that makes gnome apps look nicer? [03:11] and then indented a little more --\ universe.

[03:12] icewt: no problems :) [03:12] <_justin> yes [03:12] <_justin> that is correct [03:13] icewt: you can control it all from kcontrol too, say if you want the gnome fonts bigger than the kde ones, which is sometimes useful [03:13] Okay.

[03:34] <_justin> i got rid of all the # signs beginning with deb [03:34] <_justin> the last guy told me to do that [03:34] qatsi: and i'm assuming that /file is the correct path of the file you're wanting [03:34] You did that previously, or you just now did it? [03:34] <_justin> previously [03:34] have a question for someone, I installed kde 3.5 and would like to go baack to 3.4.3 as i am having a few crashes an hour, not system crashes program crashes, any way can i go back to 3.4.3 [03:34] Okay... Close the editor without making any changes. Return to aptitude. [03:34] <_justin> so basically every line is un commented [03:34] sudo kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list [03:35] <_justin> whats command to return to aptitude? [03:35] satafterh: there's a solution on ubuntuforums.org - search for kde 3.5 remove [03:35] will do thanks [03:35] qatsi: that looks right, tried restarting X? ctrl alt backspace [03:35] aptitude was in a different terminal window, or if you closed it just get to a shell prompt and do sudo aptitude. === _andrew [n=andrew@ool-43537389.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:35] <_justin> k there === _andrew is now known as skizzay [03:36] Okay.

Now, click on Actions and then Forget new packages. [03:38] <_justin> done [03:38] I installed the kdegames package in breezy and I never got a games menu, I also installed knemo, but it doesn't show up in system settings, before I reinstalled with breezy both of these things worked? [03:38] Hobbsee: uhmm, ok.....by the way, before i do that.....do you know of any bug that makes writing imposible ?.....instead of letters i have squares :S [03:39] qatsi: nope, but i havent looked at the bug lists for a while, tried changing the font the program uses? [03:39] Okay. Now, do you see a line --- Not Installed ? Select that. [03:39] <_justin> k [03:39] douglas: Did you also install the kdeaddons package? [03:39] nope, should I? [03:39] Hobbsee: i did that.....well, now i can use KDE, but the log in mannager still has that strange stuff :p i have to log in via console... [03:40] Under that, select otherosfs. Then universe. [03:40] <_justin> yea wines still not there [03:40] Then scroll way down and l... Huh. [03:40] I had a similar problem (but not games menu). When I installed the addons package, it appeared. [03:40] <_justin> similiar problem to me skizzay? [03:41] k [03:41] In a terminal window, do "uname -a" tell me what it says. [03:41] qatsi: what have you done recently? dist upgraded to breezy? [03:41] <`Nomad> douglas: Do you have a Debian option in your menu? That,s where things end up, you have to have that on in your menu. Look it up in the FAQ, it'll show you how to add it. [03:41] <_justin> Linux ubuntu 2.6.10-5-amd64-generic #1 Tue Apr 5 12:21:57 UTC 2005 x86_64 GNU/Linux [03:41] I know how, but I don't have a debian menu either. [03:42] Justin: Gimme a sec. [03:42] Hobbsee: in Hoary it worked just fine....after that i installed Breeze with preview cd, now im upgraded and i cant do that since breeze preview....should i download Breeze install CD and reinstall to see if it was a previes bug ? [03:42] <_justin> ok [03:43] qatsi: it might not be a bad idea, although it should give no problems if you installed with a RC, depends how early the preview cd was === hippie [n=hippie@pc-200-74-48-195.trinidad1.pc.metropolis-inter.com] has joined #kubuntu [03:44] qatsi: apparently they did a lot of work with X a little before the RC came out, and then a bit more afterwards [03:44] Hobbsee: preview was....i think the first :S [03:44] qatsi: probably wouldnt be a bad idea, assuming that was the one that was a few months ago [03:44] <_justin> jrj can't you take over with desktop sharing and do this for me? [03:45] Hobbsee: ok, i think ill do that...or maybe just installing hoary and then upgrading, that way i wont need to download the CD [03:45] I just tried installing kdeaddons, is the main mirror down? [03:46] Does anyone know how to successfully compile the kernel in Breezy?? [03:47] The wiki doesn't seem to work and there is no linux-headers for 2.6.12-9 [03:47] Okay... [03:48] <_justin> :) [03:48] qatsi: you can try that...the servers will be very, very slow though [03:48] <_justin> want to see if we can do desktop shareing jrj? [03:48] It looks like UBUNTU does not have pre-compiled binaries for WINE for AMD64. I don't know why it won't let you try to use the i386 ones instead. [03:48] Justin: No, because I only have dialup. [03:49] <_justin> ouch [03:49] <_justin> ok want to see if we can use the 1386 ones [03:49] <_justin> i have them downloaded [03:49] <_justin> to cvs\wine [03:50] Justin: You have some options -- you can try to install the Ubuntu "debian source" package, which would compile it for you. Or you can try to download the Ubuntu binary i386 package, and see if that will run.\ [03:50] You have other options. [03:50] <_justin> which would be fastest way of getting me a windows emulator [03:50] <_justin> :) [03:50] You can download from www.debian.org the AMD64 binary package and install that manually. Ubuntu is derived from Debian so there's a good chance it will work. [03:51] You can also try compiling the source you got from winehq.org. [03:51] Or, finally, you can pay for and install the commercial version, or download the source for THAT and compile / install it. [03:52] <_justin> is there a stable 64 bit windows yet? [03:52] The commercial version is that Cedega thing people mentioned -- the link to it is http://transgaming.com/ === f [n=f@118-255.dedicado.com.uy] has left #kubuntu ["chau!"] [03:53] <_justin> ty for all you're help jrj [03:53] <_justin> you taught me a lot never the less [03:53] <_justin> i probobly will buy it how much is it [03:54] I have no idea.

[04:10] Justin: That software package from TransGaming is $5 / mo on a renewing basis, or $55 / yr on a one-time basis. Supposedly, if you do the renewing one for 18+ mos there's extra bennies. [04:11] <_justin> so it would be 55 for my first year and 5 for years following? [04:11] <_jeremy> apparently i dont have mplayer installed, where do i get it? === zaphar_ps [n=zaphar_p@67-139-229-89.dsl1.chi.il.frontiernet.net] has joined #kubuntu [04:12] _jeremy: sudo apt-get install mplayer - not sure in which repository it is [04:12] <_justin> Jrj universe is not listed with main on "INSTALLED Packages" [04:12] <_justin> do u think thats my problem?

[04:16] nalioth: ah, is that what it is...i thought it was that they had all the display managers on there, so you could choose [04:16] <_jeremy> how do i figure out what repository mplayer is on and how to do change what repository im searching through to be able to get it? [04:16] Or, at least entirely change your operating system, everything, to use i386 binaries rather than AMD64 binaries. [04:17] Hobbsee: no prb :p...i found that the skype package is in very bad conditions.......strange...but true....ive just downloaded the .deb file, to see if it works... [04:17] Or, you could TRY to use the i386 binaries ANYWAY, I honestly do not know if it would be a problem or not.

[06:42] kkathman: I know Linux quite well [06:43] so if you want certain files to be used by a group of users, then you need to set those users in a group and then set the file permissions accordingly [06:43] kkathman: all I really need to know what permissions dirs other than home dirs need [06:43] richard: mv will move files, and allows for renaming; cp will copy files [06:43] jesusfish: typically...I'd say that would be rwxrw-r-- [06:43] kkathman: but should all users be able to read, say, /etc? [06:44] kkathman: like really, should a normal user be able to browse a system?

[01:34] chimaera: Thanks! What's the exact format for the deb-file line? Is there a web page that explains this? All I see are deb lines listing http sites. [01:35] Ah, I see it on the web page now.

[01:42] chimaera: well, in general case, you will also have to move the downloaded file to the repository, apt update and such... and well, if you script it, it's admitting it's complicated :-) [01:43] chimaera: (and really, writing scripts is not what the user should be doing to install a single .deb) [01:44] mornfall: sure, but i used to build my own kde-packages on sid. therefore i used such a local repo.. quite handy. not for the normal user, maybe, but if someone asks, i tell him a solution. if it's considered easy or not by him is out of my hands.. [01:45] anyhow, that kcontrol-bug is really annoying. was working and then suddenly stoppen working yesterday evening.. [01:47] btw, is there an unstable/exerimental repository for ubuntu?

Do I put "deb file:///boxln/zip/deb binary" in the file if I have my deb files under /boxln/zip/deb/binary ? [01:50] kwtm2: pastebin your sources.list [01:52] kwtm2: nope. [01:52] "deb file:///boxln/zip/deb/binary /" [01:52] apokryphos: Maybe I just have to RTFM. I'm going through the Apt HowTo right now.

[01:59] New question: if I've just downloaded a .deb file, what's the fastest way to install it? (I am starting to get a little bit too caught up in package management, so I'll learn it later and just install the package for now.) [01:59] kwtm2: right-click [01:59] kwtm2: dpkg -i FILE [01:59] Oh! Sorry, bad question since I already know dpkg -i; how do I get dependencies? I have this package and dpkg won't install it due to dependency error. [01:59] err.. sudo dpkg -i file [01:59] Kubuntu Package Menu -> Install Package [02:00] kwtm2: man dpkg [02:00] I'm using Adept. Is it easier to use Synaptic? [02:00] hey .. any good themes or windecos that are available as packages ? [02:00] or again you can use the right-click [02:00] kwtm2: i found synaptic better. [02:00] apokryphos: the dpkg man page was what turned me off Debian in the first place. It has taken 3 years for me to try Ubuntu (well, the first time it was LibraNet). [02:01] Thanks, da_bon_bon.

I could never understand it. It kept saying "dependencies not resolved" and I could never tell if it meant that it was now going to resolve those dependencies for me, or whether it was unable to do so. Then it would start downloading a ton of stuff even when I was just installing a tiny program, and whenever there was some error and I aborted, the next time it had to download a ton of [02:03] oads were going so I wouldn't have to re-download.

[02:58] da_bon_bon: Qt is of course better than GTK :P [02:58] helpme2: they are based on the same packages, so except for the gui there will be no differences [02:59] apokryphos: of course lol [02:59] though for players if they're good I don't care much for them -- they all do the job well [02:59] xine is ugly, but when I watch a film I don't look at it so its lack of aesthetic appeal doesn't bother me much [02:59] apokryphos: err.. qt alternative for gtk .. (1) mplayer [02:59] I know [02:59] (2) gimp === apokryphos just uses mplayer directly if he ever does [02:59] sugegst alternative qt software, apokryphos [02:59] though kmplayer and kplayer allegedly work ok [02:59] da_bon_bon: kaffeine [03:00] ok. [03:00] gimp ? [03:00] kmplayer & kplayer are awful....give u greenish picture..kaff is best [03:00] Krita exists, but is more primitive than GIMP [03:00] (despite being in development for a few years) [03:00] pfiew [03:00] da_bon_bon: (1) kaffeine, kvideo, noatun, (2) there isn't really one, tho there's one under way [03:00] done desactivating arts [03:00] raphink: what'd you have to kill? [03:00] nice [03:00] !players [03:00] well, players is Audio/MP3 Players: amaroK, Beep-media-player, JuK, Rhythmbox, XMMS ; Video players: Totem, Xine, Mplayer, VLC [03:00] ndazza: which one is under way ? [03:00] Hobbsee: I just killed artsd as many times as required [03:00] ndazza: there is -- krita [03:01] da_bon_bon: don't remember the name sorry :) it's on kdeapps.org though i think, if ur really keen [03:01] then turned the service off [03:01] lol...i tried that first, didnt work here [03:01] does your akregator work? [03:01] well Hobbsee the thing is that kde 3.5 beta is not yet released [03:01] apokryphos: that might have been the one i read about yea [03:01] especially when you try and configure it? [03:01] true [03:01] so it's quite normal that it doens't- work well [03:01] wait I'll try [03:01] lol...i got used to it working beautifully after beta1 [03:02] ndazza: it's in the repos [03:02] ndazza: krita ? [03:02] korganizer crashed [03:02] without doing anything but opening kontact [03:02] ah yes, fun [03:02] da_bon_bon: hold up i'll install it and see if that's the one i was thinking of [03:02] Riddell: where are we supposed to file all these bug reports too? [03:02] kontact crashed by clicking on akregator [03:02] well it's just not usable [03:02] lol [03:02] heh [03:02] clearly [03:02] for fun maybe [03:02] but nothing else [03:03] + it removed by nice kdm theme :( [03:03] lol [03:03] ndazza: luck fast net user :( [03:03] da_bon_bon: even better, local repo ;) [03:03] raphink: odd how it went to so unstable, even for a beta... [03:03] at least kmail seems to work [03:03] yes [03:03] and beta2 [03:03] while beta1 is qutie stable [03:03] ndazza: u cache ubutnu;s ftp ? [03:04] beta2 should be even more [03:04] yeah! [03:04] da_bon_bon, apokryphos yep krita's the one i read about [03:04] da_bon_bon: yes [03:04] I guess I'd have to deinstall everything if I want to get back to beta1 [03:04] ;) [03:04] http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89950 [03:04] da_bon_bon: tho i won't be for much longer, i only fetched it for software freedom day and it's a pain in the butt to keep up to date [03:05] well, we're certainly not alone with the artsd dying on us [03:05] ndazza: have you kde35b2 ? [03:05] raphink: i hope not! [03:05] da_bon_bon: nope i only have the official repos locally [03:05] raphink: is it possible to just change the repositories to what they were before, and go from there? [03:05] nope Hobbsee [03:05] apt-get upgrade only UPgrades [03:05] *cries* [03:05] I don't think there's a way [03:05] I did it not long ago [03:05] ah well, removing kde then, and then changing the sources list? [03:05] downgrading [03:05] da_bon_bon: that alone is 80GiB which is more than enough hehe [03:06] by removing essential librairies in kde [03:06] forcing to remove them [03:06] ndazza: why did you get them, anyway ? [03:06] and removing the repos [03:06] and apt-get -f install [03:06] something like [03:06] but how would you remove the repos? [03:06] dpkg -r --force-all kdelibs4 [03:06] da_bon_bon: for software freedom day. we held an installfest and wanted an up to date local repo to update/install extra software from [03:06] then [03:06] remove the repos from sources.lsit [03:06] sources.list [03:06] ndazza: oh, ok. [03:06] and then apt-get -f install [03:07] I'zll try it === ben [i=bkratz@maximus.uvt.nl] has joined #kubuntu === beast [n=beast@host-1-145-220-24.midco.net] has joined #kubuntu [03:07] before I tell you bad things ;) [03:07] ok lol [03:07] da_bon_bon: took me over a week to download, about 7-14Gig a day [03:07] i'd hate to have to use vi or something to change it...

[03:07] Hobbsee: nano is easy to use on command line [03:08] da_bon_bon: i worked out it would take over 8hours to leech on 10Meg ethernet :D [03:08] Hobbsee: pv === MenZa [n=MenZa@0x50a1605a.kd4nxx12.adsl-dhcp.tele.dk] has joined #Kubuntu [03:08] helpme2: yes i've tried it. i don't bother because speed isn't that important to me but it's low risk and it works [03:09] great, md [03:09] ndazza: do gnome apps also load faster with it?

[03:19] it's your user pass [03:19] sudo adept in konsole doesn't help either. [03:19] since it's using kdesu which is a sudo [03:19] It says, my user is not in the sudoers file. [03:20] you shouldn't really use sudo {guiapp} ever [03:20] anyone using amarok? i get a cpu usage of 100% when the 'current' tab is enabled. can anyone confirm this?

[03:22] I mean [03:22] chimaera: ohhh i just remembered something the guys in #amarok told me to fix it. one sec... [03:22] rraphink: before that I said [14:19:58] you shouldn't really use sudo {guiapp} ever [03:22] to start adept you don't need to TYPE sudo [03:22] but you need to be a sudoer [03:22] cya all guys ..

SKYPE in Kubuntu.. anyone have it working ?? [03:38] which means there's a pb with these packages [03:38] they're both not part of kde per se [03:38] if you try to force the upgrade [03:38] (they're in KDE extragear) [03:38] sudo apt-get install k3b [03:39] you'll get a conflict [03:39] then you messed up your system earlier somehow [03:39] maybe [03:39] though beta1 has some known issues [03:39] apokryphos: you think lol? [03:39] lol [03:39] to the messing up system? [03:39] Hobbsee: as in, the problem is not down to the repos/packages [03:39] which are perfectly compatible [03:39] me ?messing my system?

[05:43] no effect either [05:43] hmm [05:43] I know it should kill the x [05:43] but it does not [05:43] so you're basically stuck with a black screen [05:44] with no option to kill x or leave it [05:44] yes; and in recovery mode, it asks to enter root password, and ( because of sudo?) my password is wrong [05:44] you haven't set a root password? [05:44] nope [05:44] ok [05:44] hmm [05:44] apart from reinstalling [05:45] maybe I should correct some file, that tells the X to start by default? [05:45] from some live cd? [05:45] you could still try (if you want to) to boot on a live CD and chroot into your system [05:45] how do I chroot? [05:45] using chroot [05:45] hehe [05:45] for example [05:45] you boot on knoppix [05:45] you get root [05:45] you mount your / partition somewhere [05:46] then you run [05:46] chroot /mnt/yourpartition [05:46] and you'll be in your system [05:46] and then? [05:46] so then you can administrate it and try to repair it [05:46] that's a harsh way though [05:47] maybe i could stop X from starting by default by editing some file?

[09:45] besides, frank23 I think that when you apt-get install, it checks all repositories to verify the most recent and installs that, at least thats what someone told me a long time ago [09:45] thats why i do an apt-cache before anything [09:46] Can I ask.
