[12:04] <Set> anyone feeling helpful tonight?
[12:05] <Hobbsee> Set: lol...not till you ask
[12:05] <ninnghizidha> juet ask, set ... wanna have a glas of red wine?
[12:06] <Set> Currently running Dapper Flight 2. Problem is, I can't get WPA to work with my Intel Wireless Pro 2200 BG wlan card. The wlan I'm connecting to is not under my command, so I can't change it to WEP. What do I do to get WPA support? (writing this in Windows, as I have no network connectivity in Kubuntu atm)
[12:06] <jahshua> can someone help me please ?
[12:06] <Set> jahshua, what do you need help with?
[12:07] <Hobbsee> !wep
[12:07] <ubotu> rumour has it, wep is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/helpcenterfaq.2004-10-07.0031507315
[12:07] <jahshua> i have really bad lag right now, webpages loading slow irc is lagged etc..i just installed kubuntu and this is my first nix distro to ever use so im not too sure what to check or to do
[12:07] <ninnghizidha> ... but i guess you cant expect to run dapper without problems.
[12:07] <Set> !wpa
[12:07] <ubotu> wpa is, like, totally, enable the universe repository, then "sudo apt-get update", and then "sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant"
[12:07] <Hobbsee> Set: might be worth checking that page
[12:08] <Set> Hobbsee, I have no problems with WEP
[12:08] <Set> :)
[12:08] <DJ_Mer_> _nano_: !!!!!!!!!!!!
[12:08] <Hobbsee> my error - i read it incorrectly lol
[12:09] <aeon17x> jahshua, how much RAM do you have? If you're running short on RAM then kubuntu's gonna be slow.
[12:09] <Hobbsee> ask in #ubuntu if you dont get an answer here
[12:09] <jahshua> how can i check
[12:09] <DJ_Mer_> ohh fine _nano_ i see how ti is
[12:10] <Set> !iwp2200
[12:10] <ubotu> Set: Do they come in packets of five?
[12:10] <_nano_> DJ_Mer_: howdy!
[12:10] <Hobbsee> !ipw2200
[12:10] <ubotu> Hobbsee: I don't know, could you explain it?
[12:10] <Hobbsee> oh
[12:10] <_nano_> lol
[12:10] <Hobbsee> i thought there was a factoid for it
[12:11] <Hobbsee> there's definetly a thread on ubuntuforums about it though
[12:11] <_nano_> ubotu is funny
[12:11] <ubotu> _nano_: NO SPEAKE ENLISH!
[12:11] <jahshua> how can i check my ram in kubuntu ?
[12:11] <slow-motion> n8
[12:11] <aeon17x> jahshua, KSysguard
[12:12] <Snake__> I just downloaded kubuntu off kubuntu.org, does this come with KDE 3.5?
[12:12] <aeon17x> Snake__: no, you have to install it separately.
[12:12] <Snake__> damn
[12:12] <Hobbsee> !kde3.5
[12:12] <ubotu> somebody said kde3.5 was http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php
[12:12] <Snake__> will kubuntu work with xfce?
[12:13] <Hobbsee> it's not very difficult
[12:13] <Voodoo_Vibe> does anyone know if i can mount an iso file??
[12:13] <Hobbsee> Snake__: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop <-- works fine
[12:13] <Hobbsee> !iso
[12:13] <ubotu> from memory, iso is download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[12:13] <Hobbsee> hmmm
[12:13] <Snake__> kk
[12:13] <Hobbsee> i dont remember the exact command
[12:13] <Hobbsee> !mount
[12:13] <ubotu> from memory, mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[12:15] <Voodoo_Vibe> Hobbsee: didnt say anything about mounting files
[12:16] <Voodoo_Vibe> damn! lol
[12:16] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: you back yet?
[12:16] <DsM> is Riddell at the keyboard?
[12:16] <Riddell> hmm?
[12:17] <Set> does anyone know if the firmware and driver for Intel Wireless Pro 2200 bg is in Ubuntu Dapper Flight 2?
[12:17] <jahshua> ok so i have memory: 250,664kb used 4,448kb free  swap 116,580 used 367,296 free
[12:17] <jahshua> so what does this mean
[12:17] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: hi
[12:17] <DsM> Riddell, i wanted to talk to you about who i need to see about getting information for rsync to setup a mirror
[12:17] <ninnghizidha> is there something like gnome-"emblems" at kde?
[12:18] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: Hi, you got time?
[12:18] <DJ_Mer_> what is the terminal command to totally whipe a harddrive?
[12:18] <crimsun> set: they are.
[12:18] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: in a few (~8 minutes)
[12:18] <ninnghizidha> sudo rm -r /
[12:18] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: ok
[12:18] <Set> thanks a lot :) then I'm off to Kubuntu. see you if all goes well
[12:19] <ninnghizidha> but, thats systemwide, not just a harddrive.
[12:20] <Riddell> DsM: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[12:20] <_nano_> hey i just installed baghira from source, how do I enable it?
[12:21] <jahshua> ok so i have memory: 250,664kb used 4,448kb free  swap 116,580 used 367,296 free
[12:21] <jahshua> what does this mean
[12:21] <Riddell> DsM: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuFiles has the rsync URLs
[12:21] <ninnghizidha> you have to start the baghira-tool .. dont remember the name now.
[12:21] <_nano_> ninnghizidha: any where i can look it up from?
[12:22] <Tm_T> _nano_: just change your windeco and widget style
[12:22] <ninnghizidha> yes .. there is a baghira-guide out there .. called something like "how to stykle kde with badghira like macos"
[12:22] <ninnghizidha> MacOS
[12:23] <ninnghizidha> and a hint: NEVER deinstall badgira ... i ruined my system with it.
[12:23] <_nano_> Tm_T: it doesn't show up in the drop down list
[12:23] <_nano_> ninnghizidha: any links to that website?
[12:23] <Tm_T> _nano_: it should
[12:23] <ninnghizidha> it isnt at the dropdown .. it uses a systemtray-tool
[12:23] <_nano_> ninnghizidha: how did it ruin your system?
[12:23] <ninnghizidha> something like "bagtool"
[12:24] <Tm_T> _nano_: trust me, if you install it properly, it will show up there
[12:24] <ninnghizidha> every gtk+-theme was baghira from then on.
[12:24] <_nano_> Tm_T: i used the install shell provided with the package, and it said everything was installed successfuly
[12:25] <_nano_> ninnghizidha: so what's wrong with that, so all windows look like the same, as it should :)
[12:25] <ninnghizidha> hehe .. thats true .. but i wasnt able to turn it off .. even at gnome
[12:25] <Tm_T> _nano_: restart kde, if it's still not there, it's not installed
[12:26] <Tm_T> anyway, sleep ->
[12:26] <ninnghizidha> but .. it looked good.
[12:26] <_nano_> Tm_T: restart as in just logging out and logging in would do right?
[12:26] <ninnghizidha> let me look for the guide, _nano_
[12:26] <_nano_> ninnghizidha: thanks
[12:27] <ninnghizidha> http://baghira.sourceforge.net/OS_Clone-en.shtml
[12:27] <ninnghizidha> damit ... google works really wel ll ...
[12:27] <ninnghizidha> and the tool is called "bab"
[12:28] <_nano_> ninnghizidha: thanks ! lemme restart kde to see if it works
[12:28] <DJ_Mer_> _nano_: i don't see you on no soviet radio foo
[12:28] <_nano_> DJ_Mer_: soon soon :P
[12:28] <_nano_> brb

[12:34] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: 0000:00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs: Unknown device 0008
[12:35] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, now I need just the stanza for your sound card from lspci -nv

[12:56] <kdanielk> yeap... was taken with adept
[12:56] <kdanielk> was hopping it would work easier
[12:56] <kdanielk> i was using fedora till yesterday..
[12:57] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468469
[12:57] <kdanielk> and it took me a week to get php running on fedora
[12:57] <ninnghizidha> i guess, i cant help you, i'm sorry .. but i'm sure, you will get it working soon :-)
[12:57] <kdanielk> ufff....
[12:58] <ninnghizidha> maybe a general ubuntu-/andor/developer-channel would be more helpfull :-/
[12:58] <kdanielk> and where else can i ask?
[12:58] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: in a Konsole, amixer sset 'IEC958 Optical Raw' off
[12:59] <ninnghizidha> i dont know .. maybe try the "ubuntu"-channel .. or a php/apache-specific one .. :-/
[12:59] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468473
[01:00] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: right, and sound?
[01:01] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: no sound, trying to switch ports on the back, do it after every test
[01:02] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: nope no sound
[01:02] <kdanielk> thanks ninnghizidha will search on
[01:02] <ninnghizidha>  sound is kinda wwierd at ubuntu
[01:02] <ninnghizidha> good luck, developer :-)
[01:02] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: why are you switching ports?
[01:03] <coolio10> hi
[01:03] <coolio10> does anyone know a msn client for kubuntu (excluding kmess because it crashes)
[01:03] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: cause when i was using my onboard card i got no sound when i installed Kubuntu... but then i switched ports and it worked...
[01:03] <LjL> coolio10: Kopete?
[01:03] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: your audigy is now your primary card
[01:03] <Voodoo_Vibe> coolio10:kopete??
[01:03] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: there's no need to switch anything as long as it's hooked into your audigy's line-out
[01:04] <kdanielk> anyone here using 5.10 apache and php...
[01:04] <kdanielk> i have some questions...
[01:04] <kdanielk> please???
[01:04] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: ok, but still no sound....but no error message either in xmms

[01:06] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: are you using digital output or analog output?
[01:06] <Snake__> Can someone help me set up a wireless network card??
[01:06] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: good question... : ) dunno analog i think.... got an 5.1 logitech THX system
[01:06] <crimsun> Snake__: which one?
[01:07] <Snake__> Linksys WPC54G
[01:07] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: are you connecting the audigy directly to the speakers? No routing through a receiver, correct?
[01:07] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: correct!
[01:09] <Knowerrors> Can someone help with this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=583683#post583683 please?
[01:10] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, next things to try: mute 'External Amplifier'
[01:10] <sacstateman> hey
[01:11] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: bash: mute: command not found
[01:11] <set> wpa. Linux and WPA has a real ambivalent relationship
[01:11] <DJ_Mer_> _nano_: go to sleep
[01:11] <crimsun> set: it works
[01:12] <set> I read a walktrough
[01:12] <set> did -everything- it said
[01:12] <set> but no IP
[01:12] <crimsun> Snake__: use #7 here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5645
[01:12] <set> It works without encryption. I talked to the owner of the AP
[01:13] <set> and he agreed to give me one hour to get wpa fixed
[01:13] <crimsun> briefly tell me what you did when configuring wpasupplicant.
[01:13] <crimsun> (I co-maintain it for Ubuntu)
[01:13] <Snake__> thanks crimsun
[01:14] <xIllu> haha ppl look at this video :) http://www.apple.com/trailers/weinstein/hoodwinked/trailer/
[01:14] <set> here goes :)
[01:14] <set> sudo kate /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
[01:14] <crimsun> beyond that.
[01:14] <Snake__> !reps
[01:14] <ubotu> Snake__: What?
[01:14] <crimsun> I need to know what you changed.
[01:14] <Snake__> !reporistys
[01:14] <ubotu> Snake__: Wish i knew
[01:14] <Snake__> Ahh I can spell it...
[01:14] <crimsun> !repos
[01:14] <ubotu> methinks repos is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/969 (Hoary) or http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/2325 (Breezy) see also !easysource
[01:15] <Snake__> Thats it
[01:15] <Snake__> thanks
[01:15] <set> I installed wpasupplicant
[01:15] <crimsun> set: I understand all that. I want to know what you changed in both files.
[01:15] <set> configured the wpa_supplicant.conf file to match my settings.
[01:15] <crimsun> (/etc/default/wpasupplicant and /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf)
[01:16] <set> I did nothing to etc/default/wpasupplicant
[01:16] <set> I only changed wpa_supplicant.conf
[01:16] <set> and made a script for it to start on boot
[01:16] <set> I think it would help you if I just sent the guide I followed
[01:17] <crimsun> ok, see, there's a /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.Debian for a reason...
[01:19] <set> I shall read the readme.
[01:19] <set> thank you :)
[01:20] <coolio10> right now i have no sound, how do i configure the sound?
[01:20] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: no, amixer sset 'External Amplifier' off
[01:20] <Sylvarius> please accept. it is the guide I used. easier to explain when you have it
[01:21] <crimsun> Sylvarius: I'm blocked from those
[01:21] <crimsun> Sylvarius: here, I'll walk you through it, but I need details
[01:21] <crimsun> Sylvarius: 1) WPA? TKIP?
[01:21] <crimsun> Sylvarius: 2) SSID?
[01:21] <crimsun> Sylvarius: 3) any other odd details about the AP?
[01:22] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468493   ok didnt know if i had to post but, atleast u can see if it did what u meant it to do :)
[01:22] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: you didn't need to post, but sure
[01:22] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: any sound?
[01:22] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: test with aplay
[01:23] <Sylvarius> crimsun:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26623
[01:23] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: no sound.  aplay?
[01:23] <Sylvarius> WPA TKIP, ssid: jesus
[01:23] <crimsun> Sylvarius: now paste your /etc/default/wpasupplicant and /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf (sanitise it first) onto the paste
[01:23] <Sylvarius> I have two AP's available. DGL-4300 and a 3com office connect
[01:23] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: no sound. tested aplay in konsole but no sound
[01:24] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: does aplay hang or appear to play the song?
[01:25] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: dunno i typed aplay in konsole then it appears as if nothing happens, just jumped down a line and nothing more....

[01:25] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: will you use the speaker-test utility please?
[01:26] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: in kcontrol??
[01:26] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: the syntax to use is described in the top portion of the man page
[01:26] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: no, open a Konsole and use speaker-test
[01:26] <coolio10> any download clients for kubuntu like limewire or emule etc.............
[01:26] <crimsun> Sylvarius: you neglected group=TKIP
[01:26] <crimsun> Sylvarius: also, that should be ap_scan=1
[01:27] <Sylvarius> crimsun: in the /etc/default/wpasupplicant file, everything is commented except ENABLED=0 and OPTIONS="-w"
[01:27] <crimsun> Sylvarius: next, you shouldn't use the ascii representation of your passphrase. Instead use ''wpa_passphrase ssid passphrase'' to generate the hex, and place that in the conffile
[01:28] <Snake__> How can I get ndiswrapper-tools??!
[01:28] <crimsun> Sylvarius: what wifi adapter are you usinG?
[01:28] <Sylvarius> Intel Wireless Pro 2200 BG
[01:28] <Sylvarius> can I just run wpa_passphrase ssid passphrase in console_
[01:28] <Sylvarius> ?
[01:28] <crimsun> Sylvarius: then your /etc/default/wpasupplicant is incomplete
[01:28] <crimsun> Sylvarius: yes
[01:28] <crimsun> Sylvarius: first, that needs to be ENABLED=1
[01:29] <crimsun> Sylvarius: next, you should only have one uncommented OPTIONS= line, and that should read: OPTIONS="-i eth1 -D ipw -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -w"
[01:29] <crimsun> Sylvarius: (presuming of course that the wifi interface is eth1)
[01:30] <Knowerrors> Can anyone help with this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=583683#post583683?
[01:30] <Sylvarius> crimsun, let's take the wpa_supplicant.conf file first
[01:30] <Sylvarius> to get the hex passphrase, I run "wpa_passphrase ssid passphrae <insert passphrase>" in console?
[01:31] <crimsun> Sylvarius: no, replace "passphrase" with your ascii passphrase quoted
[01:31] <Sylvarius> and ssid with ssid? ^^
[01:31] <crimsun> wpa_supplicant ssid "something wicked this way comes"
[01:32] <Voodoo_Vibe> Iced Earth?
[01:32] <DJ_Mer_> _nano_: dark ambient :-P
[01:32] <Sylvarius> RIP Matthew Barlow's voice
[01:33] <Sylvarius> So, in wpa_supplicant.conf, I replace psk with the hex psk. is that correct? ap_scan=1
[01:34] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: now you made me miss my sound even more!!  :)
[01:35] <crimsun> Sylvarius: yes
[01:35] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: heh, I do love IE, but that was more obliquely Harry Potter
[01:35] <Sylvarius> then wpa_supplicant.conf is correctly edited?
[01:35] <Snake__> brb
[01:35] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: hehe

[01:36] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: it only tests front left all the time....?
[01:37] <Sylvarius> crimsun: pairwise=tkip should be changed to group=tkip ?
[01:37] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: but can you hear it?
[01:37] <crimsun> Sylvarius: no, add group=TKIP
[01:37] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: nope
[01:37] <crimsun> Sylvarius: leave pairwise=TKIP
[01:38] <hyperactivecrond> yay ! i fixed it
[01:38] <hyperactivecrond> sudo apt-get install xmhtml1
[01:39] <Sylvarius> okay. so now wpa_supplicant reads like this:
[01:39] <hyperactivecrond> that fixed it
[01:39] <Sylvarius> ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
[01:39] <Sylvarius> ap_scan=1
[01:39] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, let's see, you muted 'External Amplifier', correct?
[01:39] <Sylvarius> network={
[01:39] <Sylvarius>    ssid="jesus"
[01:39] <Sylvarius>    scan_ssid=1
[01:39] <Sylvarius>    proto=WPA
[01:39] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: yepp
[01:39] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok now mute 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack'
[01:40] <Sylvarius> key_mgmt=WPA-PSK, pairwise=TKIP,    group=TKIP, psk= hex passphrase
[01:40] <crimsun> Sylvarius: looks good
[01:40] <crimsun> Sylvarius: and your /etc/default/wpasupplicant.conf?
[01:40] <Sylvarius> great. now one configuration file is okay :)
[01:40] <Sylvarius> we'll take that one now
[01:41] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: i heard a thump... but no sound
[01:41] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, that's a start.
[01:41] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: now unmute 'External Amplifier'
[01:41] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: yeah, atleast its alive : )
[01:41] <Sylvarius> crimsun: only one uncommented line:  OPTIONS="-i eth1 -D ipw -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -w"
[01:42] <crimsun> Sylvarius: is your actual wifi interface eth1?
[01:42] <Sylvarius> yes
[01:42] <crimsun> Sylvarius: ok. What about the ENABLED=1 ?
[01:42] <crimsun> (you need that, too)
[01:42] <Sylvarius> it's uncommented
[01:42] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: yeah, but no sound
[01:43] <Sylvarius> so. now both configuration files are okay. reboot and good to go? ^^
[01:43] <jahshua> how can i increase disk cache memory(usage) in kubuntu ?
[01:43] <crimsun> Sylvarius: sudo invoke-rc.d wpasupplicant restart
[01:43] <crimsun> Sylvarius: then, sudo ifup --force eth1
[01:44] <hyperactivecrond> jahshua: do you have a swap partition/file?
[01:44] <Sylvarius> then it's up. no reboot needed?
[01:44] <crimsun> Sylvarius: no reboot.

[02:02] <_set> that's a very neat tool
[02:02] <Hobbsee> it is
[02:02] <_set> :)
[02:02] <_set> :)
[02:03] <Voodoo_Vibe> _set: yeah i like it very mouch! :)
[02:03] <_set> I can tell there is something wrong with my configuration file. But I don't know what
[02:06] <_set> everything is in another perspective for me now. I work as tech support, mainly for wireless networks. Helping users configuring their network  adaptors in windows.oh, the irony :))

[02:10] <jahshua> can someone please give me a link to a 'user guide' for kubuntu..basically something that will tell you what todo when you have first boot it and how to use it etc.
[02:11] <crimsun> _set: hmm, your /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf is odd
[02:11] <crimsun> _set: it _should_ work, but...
[02:12] <Snake__> anyone?
[02:13] <_set> but?
[02:14] <crimsun> _set: I posted mine at http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468529 as an addendum
[02:14] <crimsun> _set: the only thing I can think of that you might need is the "scan_ssid=1" in the network={} stanza, but you only need that if your AP doesn't broadcast its ssid
[02:15] <_set> ssid broadcast is enabled on the AP
[02:15] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: shall it still be audigy 2 (Unknown)??
[02:16] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: shall it still be audigy 2 Value (Unknown)??
[02:16] <crimsun> _set: then you don't need scan_ssid=1
[02:16] <crimsun> _set: furthermore, you probably can just use my options (replacing ssid, of course)
[02:16] <crimsun> _set: try replacing yours with mine; just change the ssid and hex
[02:17] <crimsun> _set: note: the hex doesn't have "s
[02:17] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: is that what's in /proc/asound/cards ?
[02:17] <_set> I know
[02:18] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: thats what it say in kmix
[02:18] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: what does ''cat /proc/asound/cards'' say?
[02:18] <crimsun> I have a feeling you can get it working by tweaking a source file, but you'll need to recompile the ALSA driver.
[02:19] <crimsun> _set: you're 100% positive that TKIP only is used?
[02:19] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun:  http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468540
[02:19] <_set> yes
[02:19] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: can you check what it actually says on the card itself? (open up the computer case)
[02:20] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: i.e., is it an SB0610 ?
[02:20] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun:  ok will check
[02:21] <_set> okay
[02:21] <_set> it's scanning
[02:21] <_set> now reconfigure the AP :)

[02:22] <M_Cheevy> jahshua: go to preferences area and change to homepage to point from index.html to "ubuntu-index.html" (I think that's what it is)
[02:22] <M_Cheevy> crimsun: I tried that one, it didn't work, just checking the dir showed me the rename

[03:00] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: ok
[03:00] <set_> if Intel would port their Wireless Proset utility to Linux, normal people wouldn't get a headache figuring out the config files :) But, I guess that ruins the good feeling you get when it finaly works

[03:01] <Snake__> set_:  I want linux drivers before config editors

[03:03] <jahshua> i have literally been on linux for the first 4 hours of my life this evening
[03:03] <douglas> Im trying to install a kommander script called dvd-rip-omatic, and it asks for the location of kommander which it knows as /usr/bin/kommander and the install of kde, which it only knows as /usr, and I know I need to replace this with where kde actually is, where is it?
[03:03] <jahshua> after being on windows for almost ten years
[03:03] <jahshua> :)
[03:03] <douglas> Nice
[03:03] <douglas> Good job
[03:03] <douglas> ask anything you need
[03:03] <douglas> spread the word
[03:03] <Snake__> I've been on about 2 weeks, then I used linux wrong and killed my windows partition
[03:04] <jahshua> i have this memory question
[03:04] <set_> jahshua: I suspect you don't use wlan :) Welcome to the wonderful world of open source
[03:04] <douglas> ok
[03:04] <jahshua> everything is running slow for me
[03:04] <jahshua> webpages
[03:04] <Snake__> so I got a junk PC to put it on :)
[03:04] <jahshua> irc im lagged
[03:04] <jahshua> etc
[03:04] <douglas> I use wlan
[03:04] <douglas> and it works fine!
[03:04] <douglas> except wpa passphrases
[03:04] <set_> :p
[03:04] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: finished compiling?
[03:05] <set_> I can't havev anything less than wpa-psk
[03:05] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: not yet
[03:05] <jahshua> douglas: any idea what it might be?
[03:05] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: no i am  : )

[03:08] <douglas> anything else?
[03:08] <jahshua> what else do you need
[03:08] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: done. and there was tumping in speakers
[03:08] <jahshua> im not sure what to show you
[03:08] <douglas> cpu? hard drive space
[03:08] <douglas> it all is a factor
[03:09] <douglas> Kde is quite the resource hog, considering what it's capable of.
[03:09] <jahshua> how do i check that
[03:09] <jahshua> i just now went system/info center/memory
[03:09] <douglas> Not sure of a command
[03:09] <douglas> it should be in there.
[03:10] <Snake__> it runs nice on 800 mhz P3 with 512 mb ram
[03:10] <Snake__> :)
[03:10] <Snake__> Better than xp did
[03:10] <jahshua> where can i check that, snake ?
[03:10] <douglas> I have a laptop with 1.4GHz celeron 256mb ram and it runs well
[03:10] <Snake__> I know my PCs specs off the top of my head
[03:10] <Snake__> lol
[03:10] <douglas> fire up kinfocenter and click processor
[03:11] <douglas> it's under the kmenu->system->kinfocenter.
[03:11] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, sanity-check. cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer
[03:12] <Snake__> crimsun: my KInfoCenter says that theres no card in my PCMCIA slot :(
[03:12] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468579
[03:12] <jahshua> ok
[03:12] <jahshua> 2.20 ghz intel celeron
[03:13] <jahshua> cpu MHz 2193.170
[03:13] <douglas> cool
[03:13] <douglas> sounds good
[03:13] <jahshua> cache size 128 kb
[03:13] <douglas> so what about the system is slow again?
[03:13] <jahshua> ok
[03:13] <jahshua> webpages loading
[03:13] <jahshua> irc
[03:13] <Snake__> lol
[03:13] <jahshua> im lagged on here
[03:13] <jahshua> webpages dont load at all for the frist few seconds
[03:13] <douglas> how long?
[03:14] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, now: amixer sset 'External Amplifier' on && amixer sset 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' on
[03:14] <jahshua> then they load up fine
[03:14] <douglas> how bad is your lag?
[03:14] <douglas> ipv6 may play a factor
[03:14] <jahshua> earlier it was real bad
[03:14] <douglas> for web pages.
[03:14] <jahshua> like ping reply 40 secs and stuff
[03:14] <douglas> wow.
[03:14] <douglas> that's not good
[03:14] <jahshua> i have adsl
[03:14] <jahshua> like
[03:14] <jahshua> on xp i never was lagged
[03:15] <jahshua> and i obviously repartitioned my hd with the install
[03:15] <Snake__> Im gonna cry if I dont get net lol
[03:15] <douglas> yea
[03:15] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: ok
[03:15] <jahshua> im wondering if i didnt give enough space to kubuntu maybe ?
[03:15] <douglas> try dslreports.com
[03:15] <douglas> do a speed test and check the results but honestly I don't know, I've never run into such problems
[03:16] <jahshua> ok
[03:16] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: done?
[03:16] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: yes
[03:16] <kairu0> anyone who has had problems with keyboard layouts in the latest kubuntu?
[03:17] <douglas> jahshua: try channel #linuxhelp
[03:17] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, the moment of truth: test sound
[03:17] <jahshua> ok thanks
[03:18] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: :( no sound
[03:18] <crimsun> set_: haven't forgotten about you.
[03:18] <nrdb> How do you fax from kubuntu?
[03:18] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, try muting 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack'
[03:19] <set_> crimus: I'm just trying to read through it and see clearly :) Thinking loud, you might call it.
[03:19] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: :( nope
[03:20] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: try from a cold boot.
[03:20] <crimsun> turn the machine off, wait 2 minutes, then power it back up
[03:20] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: cold boot = total restart??
[03:21] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: yes, power the machine down, wait 2 minutes, then power it back up
[03:21] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: ok will do! cya soon!
[03:21] <crimsun> set_: any possibility you can use WEP in the meantime?
[03:22] <set_> I'll talk with my landlord about it. My profession is WiFi support for Windows, so I'm not a big fan of WEP. But, if there is no other way, what can I do about it?
[03:23] <crimsun> right, I just need to read some specs on those APs
[03:23] <set_> crimsun: thanks for the help this far :)
[03:23] <set_> crimsun; I can use a D-Link DGL-4300, if that helps you more
[03:23] <crimsun> I know ipw works with WPA (TKIP), since I use it myself
[03:24] <crimsun> set_: does it fail for both?
[03:24] <nrdb> I would like to send a fax from my computer with kubuntu, how do I go about setting this up?
[03:24] <set_> crimsun: I'll try the DGL now
[03:24] <crimsun> set_: ok
[03:26] <set_> crimsun: I can use TKIP, AES, or TKIP and AES. with Group Key Update Interval 3600 seconds.
[03:26] <Snake__> Anyone help me!!
[03:26] <set_> which of the three sounds best?
[03:26] <Snake__> :(
[03:26] <crimsun> set_: it'll work with any combination of TKIP and AES
[03:26] <set_> TKIP and AES it is then
[03:26] <crimsun> set_: granted you'll need to remove pairwise=TKIP and group=TKIP, then
[03:27] <crimsun> (from /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf)
[03:29] <Voodoo_Vibe> crimsun: :( nope no sound
[03:30] <crimsun> Voodoo_Vibe: ok, then I'll need to ping James about it. Sorry, but no go for now.
[03:31] <Voodoo_Vibe> Ok, but thank you very much for the effort!!
[03:32] <Snake__> Anyone please help me set up my Linksys WPC54G Wireless card

[04:01] <Snake__> There is no help here.
[04:01] <Set> crimsun: Thanks for trying to help me. Very appriciated! :) I will wait for Xandros 4, with KDE 3.5 comes out, before I go Linux again.
[04:02] <Knowerrors> Snake__: isn't ace a compression format?  Why not just use ark?
[04:02] <Snake__> Knowerrors: angasule needs that help
[04:02] <Snake__> :)
[04:02] <Snake__> Snake needs help with a wireless card
[04:02] <Snake__> Or snake is going to blow head off :(
[04:02] <Knowerrors> right hehe, misread ;)
[04:03] <Snake__> Knowerrors:  could you help me by anychace when your done with him?
[04:03] <Knowerrors> angasule: try right clicking on the file in Konq and just using Ark to extract it
[04:04] <_nano_> !firefox
[04:04] <ubotu> from memory, firefox is a Free Software web browser that supports extensions and is gaining popularity by the hour. Developed by the Mozilla Foundation.
[04:04] <angasule> Knowerrors: it's not a supported format by ark
[04:04] <_nano_> !firefox1.5
[04:04] <ubotu> _nano_: Did you get hit by a windmill?
[04:05] <Knowerrors> angasule: that sucks
[04:05] <Snake__> lol
[04:05] <Knowerrors> though ark did em all
[04:05] <Knowerrors> Snake: do you have ndswrapper installed?
[04:05] <Snake__> Yes
[04:05] <Snake__> I also have the linksys drivers
[04:05] <angasule> I don't know what kind of monkey uses .ace files for wide distribution...
[04:05] <Snake__> but it wont set up
[04:06] <Snake__> Its a linksys wpc54g card
[04:06] <Set> Knowerrors = guru of the hour? :)
[04:06] <_nano_> !mp3
[04:06] <Glin|Jol> Winamp 5.11 paused
[04:06] <ubotu> methinks mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:06] <Knowerrors> hmm, can't help then, try the ubu forum or channel, I don't have wireless
[04:06] <Snake__> fock
[04:06] <Knowerrors> Set: I just talk like a guru ;)
[04:06] <Set> Knowerrors, that's why you don't have any gray hairs yet? (no wlan)
[04:07] <Snake__> indeed
[04:07] <Snake__> And I NEED wan
[04:07] <Set> wide area networl ?
[04:07] <Set> k
[04:07] <Knowerrors> Snake__: try openSuSe , generally better hardware support than any other linux
[04:07] <Snake__> Ya but I like the install on kubuntu :(
[04:07] <Snake__> how to install prog
[04:08] <Set> Xandros OCE 3
[04:08] <Set> is -very- good with wlan
[04:08] <Set> but no KDE 3.5
[04:08] <burepe> Um, I can not get mp3s to play in amarok. Am I stupid?
[04:08] <angasule> !!mp3
[04:08] <ubotu> angasule: Are you smoking crack?
[04:08] <robotgeek> Snake__: what wireless card, using ndiswrapper?
[04:08] <Set> that's why I'm getting a nervous breakdown in Kubuntu
[04:08] <burepe> ha
[04:08] <angasule> no, ubotu , I ran out
[04:08] <robotgeek> burepe: get the xine engine
[04:08] <burepe> ok
[04:09] <robotgeek> angasule: ubotu is a bot
[04:09] <Set> or install xmms
[04:09] <Knowerrors> _nano_: try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion for FF1.5
[04:09] <Snake__> robotgeek: its a wpc54g
[04:09] <Snake__> linksys
[04:09] <angasule> robotgeek: I know :D
[04:09] <burepe> i have the gstreamer engine. that no good?
[04:09] <angasule> burepe: google for kubuntu mp3 or something like that
[04:09] <angasule> burepe: you have to install some package with adept
[04:09] <robotgeek> Snake__: i don't have any experience with ndiswrapper, sorry
[04:09] <Snake__> Ahhhhhh
[04:09] <Knowerrors> burepe: try amarok-xine engine, gstreamer sucks
[04:09] <Snake__> No one does
[04:09] <robotgeek> burepe: that gsteamer multiverse things also
[04:09] <Snake__> lol
[04:10] <burepe> robotgeek said get the xmms engine
[04:10] <burepe> angasule,
[04:10] <Snake__> well ill brb
[04:10] <crimsun> Set: unfortunately I don't know what they do differently (it'd be nice if I had time to test it)
[04:10] <robotgeek> burepe: xine engine for amarok, sudo apt-get install amarok-engines :)
[04:11] <burepe> cool
[04:11] <burepe> I am using adept so it is done
[04:11] <burepe> thanks though
[04:11] <Knowerrors> then select it in amarok :)
[04:12] <Knowerrors> make sure you have w32codecs installed also
[04:12] <robotgeek> Knowerrors: you don't need that to play mp3's in amarok :)
[04:12] <Set> crimsun, the difference is that Xandros has a built in, idiot-proof wlan configuration program, where you can fill in the wireless settings. I'm 100% sure that I'm doing something wrong with the configuration files.
[04:13] <Snake__> Anyone here help me set up a wireless card?
[04:13] <crimsun> Set: If you can get the conffiles for that configuration program after you've configured and used it successfully, that will help.
[04:13] <Snake__> Anyone
[04:14] <Knowerrors> robotgeek: really?  I just always install that for all extra codec support
[04:14] <angasule> frack, I can't access gmail with konqueror (I don't know why, it just won't load), mozilla says something about PMS, urgh
[04:14] <robotgeek> Knowerrors: even gstreamer will play fine
[04:14] <Knowerrors> Snake__: have you tried searching the ubuntuforums?
[04:14] <Snake__> ya nothing helps
[04:14] <Snake__> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=113584&postcount=7
[04:14] <Snake__> I tried that
[04:14] <burepe> knoqueror cant view gmail like it is supposed to be anyway, why not try firefox?
[04:15] <Snake__> and I cant get past 3G
[04:15] <Snake__> It can
[04:15] <Snake__> t scan
[04:15] <angasule> burepe: it can, in KDE 3.5, besides, I won't switch browser for *1* website
[04:15] <burepe> oh
[04:15] <robotgeek> burepe: try to identify for safari
[04:15] <Snake__> and then if I do a ifconfig it wont come up with wlan0
[04:15] <robotgeek> as safari
[04:15] <angasule> gmail works well enough in 3.4 anyway
[04:15] <burepe> i am in love with firefox so i have a bias. sorry
[04:16] <angasule> :? now gmail works, I wonder what was wrong
[04:16] <angasule> didn't work all day
[04:16] <jahshua> what does it mean if i 'lock session'
[04:16] <Set> crimsun: I'll do that... clean Xandros install, then copy files. Thanks
[04:16] <Set> bbl
[04:16] <Snake__> Just signs you out
[04:17] <_nano_> Snake__: I don't think it signs you out
[04:17] <Snake__> Well in anycase you need a password to get in
[04:17] <_nano_> Snake__: I think it's similar to lock screen ..
[04:17] <_nano_> Snake__: yeah
[04:17] <angasule> jahshua: it puts the screensaver and requires your password to turn it off, but nothing is closed
[04:17] <jahshua> my root password ?
[04:17] <angasule> jahshua: no, your password
[04:17] <_nano_> jahshua: no user password
[04:18] <Snake__> I noticed that just putting it in command mode (ctrl alt f1) is usually enough to lock it :)
[04:18] <Snake__> Someone looks at it goes "Wtf?" and walks away
[04:18] <Voodoo_Vibe> Can i play Anarchy Online in Wine?
[04:18] <InfoLibre[Frank] > Hey.. I've got a diskless machine which I'd like to use as an X server with Synergy to control it. My question is, can I install any additional software (synergy) on the kubuntu LiveCD? It's very small software, and afaik it has no dependencies. Also, can I set DisallowTCP=false in the gdm configuration of the LiveCD? And is there a way I could make those settings persistent?
[04:19] <angasule> Voodoo_Vibe: probably not, but I don't really know (I love leets!)
[04:19] <Voodoo_Vibe> angasule: ok thanx! damn then i must have Windo$e :)
[04:20] <robotgeek> InfoLibre[Frank] : yes, you can
[04:20] <angasule> Voodoo_Vibe: send an email asking for a linux version, if you're a paying customer, I doubt they'll listen, since their game seems to be extremely windows dependent
[04:21] <Voodoo_Vibe> angasule: yeah, ive sent them an e-mail 2 weeks ago... but no answer.  :(
[04:22] <aven> 'lo
[04:22] <Aven> how do you get the Home, Trash, etc. in the desktop?
[04:23] <angasule> Voodoo_Vibe: well, they'd probably have to rewrite the whole thing, so it's not worth their time, I guess
[04:24] <aseigo> Aven: drag them from the panel .. or right click and select add link to url and use trash:/ and $HOME respectively
[04:24] <Aven> ah ok, ty
[04:26] <Snake__> aseigo: do you know how to set up wireless cards?
[04:27] <Voodoo_Vibe> angasule: yeah probably. maybe in cedega then
[04:27] <burepe> !realplayer
[04:27] <ubotu> realplayer is, like, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:27] <aseigo> Snake__: dunno what the kubuntu way is, as i've never used kubuntu on my laptop
[04:28] <Snake__> damnnn iittt
[04:28] <Snake__> ok
[04:28] <aseigo> Snake__: but once you have the correct driver installed, it's a simply to do with iwconfig if you aren't afraid of the command line =)
[04:29] <Snake__> I've been using it the whole time
[04:29] <Snake__> I got the driver installed
[04:29] <Snake__> but it still doesn't detect wlan0
[04:31] <Snake__> all i get is eth0 and lo
[04:31] <aseigo> Snake__: what does iwconfig run on its own say?
[04:32] <Snake__> lo        no wireless extensions.

[04:36] <Snake__> no _nano_  what would I do there?
[04:37] <aseigo> then yes, the next thing to check is the interfaces config
[04:38] <_nano_> Snake__: you have to put all your wireless settings in there
[04:38] <_nano_> Snake__: like your WEP key and stuff
[04:38] <Snake__> so how would I set it up?
[04:39] <_nano_> Snake__: lemme give you a link, that explains everything
[04:39] <Snake__> ok
[04:39] <Snake__> God I hope this works
[04:40] <_nano_> Snake__: it should, if your ndiswrapper stage is success, i don't see why it shouldn't
[04:40] <_nano_> Snake__: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu
[04:41] <burepe> Knowerrors, are you enabling a tv tuner card? what is xawtv? I am trying to install a tv tuner card but I dont know how to go about doing it.
[04:41] <Knowerrors> burepe: yeah, I use xawtv to view the video from my tvtuner card
[04:42] <jakykong> could anyone help me get the Java plugin for mozilla properly installed? apt-get didn't recognize it (or at least, i couldn't find it ... tried i think jre2_1.5 or something like that...) and when i did a manual download from Java.com, it gave me this .bin self extracting executable, which made no changes at all to my system...
[04:42] <Knowerrors> if your tvcard hardware is supported/detected, xawtv would work automatic as a viewer
[04:42] <Knowerrors> jakykong: get it through Adept
[04:42] <Knowerrors> same with all the mozilla plugins, flash, java, mplayer
[04:43] <Snake__> What would my host name be?
[04:43] <burepe> cool
[04:43] <set> Now I'm in Xandros, using wlan with wpa. Suggestion on what I would look for? found wpasupplicant.conf
[04:43] <Knowerrors> jakykong: just enable all the repositories first, then update
[04:43] <jakykong> how do i enable all the repositories?
[04:43] <burepe> Knowerrors, how do i know if my tv card is supported? will it automatically be detected?
[04:44] <burepe> how do I tell if it is or not?
[04:44] <Knowerrors> yeah, check your bootup messages to see if its detected
[04:44] <burepe> how do i do that?
[04:44] <Knowerrors> jakykong: Adept>Adept>manage repositories
[04:45] <Knowerrors> burepe: open up /var/log/syslog
[04:45] <Snake__> _nano_: what would my host name be??
[04:46] <set> crimsun, this is interesting. I found something called xandros-wpa-supplicant
[04:46] <crimsun> hmm, I wonder what they hacked up
[04:46] <jahshua> hello!"
[04:46] <jahshua> does kubuntu allow you to log in as root ?
[04:46] <set> use sudo
[04:47] <jahshua> ah yes
[04:47] <jahshua> ok
[04:47] <set> shouldn't I be able to install Xandros version of wpa-supplicant_
[04:47] <set> ?
[04:48] <Snake__> aseigo: What would I use as a hostname
[04:48] <Snake__> in the config file
[04:49] <jakykong> ok so i enabled all repositories ... and updated ... and poked arruond a bit for Java ... can't find it ... what package am i looking for?
[04:50] <kalenedrael> Java isn't in apt.
[04:50] <kalenedrael> You need to download it straight from java.sun.com and install it using their directions...
[04:50] <kalenedrael> At least, last time I checked it wasn't in apt.
[04:50] <kalenedrael> Whoops, sorry.
[04:50] <kalenedrael> It is in apt :P
[04:50] <jakykong> yeah thats what i was originally asked about... Java.sun.com's directions didn't do anything to my system... left it 100% exactly the same ...
[04:50] <nrdb> anyone know how to get the 'print to fax' to work?
[04:51] <DaSkreech> Whats the difference between the kernel and the complete kernel?
[04:51] <DaSkreech> Headers?
[04:51] <Snake__> _nano_: Help??
[04:51] <kalenedrael> DaSkreech, headers, source...
[04:51] <burepe> Knowerrors, there is so much information in the log. can you give me a clue to what I am looking for?
[04:52] <DaSkreech> kalenedrael: So The kernel is just the binaries?
[04:52] <Knowerrors> the name of your card, or its chipset
[04:52] <jakykong> ok ... so still doesen't help... i can't seem to find the java package in Adept ... what package am i looking for? (is it named java? cause i used the filter "java" to try to get fewer things to look through)
[04:52] <kalenedrael> jakykong, yeah, java.sun.com isn't too good about giving directions. I had to figure most of it out myself...
[04:52] <kalenedrael> jakykong, it's called j2re1.4
[04:53] <_nano_> Snake__: sorry i was away :P
[04:53] <Snake__> No problem
[04:53] <Snake__> Want to look over my config file?
[04:53] <Snake__> I didnt know what to put for host name
[04:54] <_nano_> Snake__: you mean the interfaces file?
[04:54] <Snake__> Yes
[04:54] <_nano_> Snake__: yeah sure paste-bin that
[04:54] <Snake__> Okay hang on
[04:55] <Snake__> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468639
[04:55] <jakykong> uhhh .... j2re1.4 isn't a package on my list ...
[04:56] <set> crimsun, is it possible to upgrade Xandros 3.0 to Kubuntu, leaving the core part of the OS left?
[04:56] <Snake__> so...?
[04:58] <Snake__> _nano_ pastebin up^
[04:59] <burepe> Knowerrors, is this my card? http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/468642
[05:00] <_nano_> Snake__: PM?
[05:00] <Snake__> I could PM
[05:00] <Knowerrors> looks like it burepe , try installing xawtv and see if you get anything, what kind of TV card is it?
[05:01] <Knowerrors> burepe: yeah, I meant /var/log/messages
[05:01] <burepe> adept says something is using something and it wont let me install. gotta figure it out
[05:01] <burepe> kworld
[05:02] <burepe> it was used at the comp shop 20bucks
[05:02] <burepe> i just thought i would take a chance
[05:02] <burepe> but i live in japan so it is hit or miss
[05:02] <Knowerrors> over the air, cable, satellite?
[05:02] <Knowerrors> do you have synaptic or kpackage open?
[05:02] <burepe> cabel
[05:03] <burepe> may
[05:03] <burepe> naw
[05:03] <burepe> i mean
[05:03] <Knowerrors> you could try tvtime also, or kdetv
[05:03] <Knowerrors> depends if you want it to switch channels, or just display the video, and just use remote to change channels
[05:04] <burepe> i had systemlogs open
[05:04] <burepe> that was the problem
[05:04] <burepe> i think
[05:04] <Knowerrors> gtg, dinner time, bblater
[05:05] <burepe> ok
[05:05] <burepe> thanks for the help

[05:11] <ubotu> The guide to upgrading to breezy (5.10) is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade
[05:12] <kangpeh> Anybody here know of a KDE 3.5 Theme/Window Decoration/etc. that will make the 'design' seem as if it were Linspire's Clear Theme, or a Milky theme?
[05:12] <kangpeh> If you can help me, I will be very greatful.
[05:12] <kangpeh> Thank you for your time, and concern.
[05:15] <set> now... if this works. I'll go to the church tomorrow

[05:52] <jakykong> hey, i asked this earlier to no avail ... i am a complete noob to the world of linux ... i just gave up windows cold turkey and i'm very stuck until i have what i need ... i need to run Java applets in Mozilla. so far, java.com and java.sun.com have been no help, Adept has one Java applet thingy that doesen't seem to work at all, and blackdown might have worked ... but i have no idea how to tell.
[05:52] <jakykong> But as of yet, no Java capabilities in the browser...
[05:52] <jakykong> could someone help me?
[05:54] <dotdot> I know the feeling jakykong!
[05:57] <Snake__> _nano_:  you there?
[06:01] <jakykong> ugh ... java still won't work ...
[06:01] <jakykong> and nameserv apparently didn't register my nick ...
[06:01] <jakykong> nicksrv*
[06:01] <jakykong> nickserv*
[06:03] <jakykong> is anyone in here able to help me with java? i really am kinda desparate ... please? (i don't wanna sound like i'm begging but really, i'm lost without Java to run some of my applications online)
[06:03] <robotgeek> jakykong: ppc?
[06:04] <robotgeek> jakykong: please don't /msg me, i already have 15 windows open.
[06:04] <jakykong> ok ... how aer you sending those discolored messages, though? that isn't .message?
[06:05] <jakykong> are*
[06:05] <robotgeek> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JavaAMD64
[06:05] <trappist> when I insert a dvd konqeror pops up with 'media:/hdc' in the address bar.  /dev/hdc is the correct device, but it says media:/hdc can't be fount.  strace shows that it's searching for a file called 'media:/hdc' in my $PATH.  what gives?
[06:06] <jakykong> THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER! i probably wuold have never found that on my own (google was no help at all)
[06:07] <robotgeek> jakykong: use the wiki. it is a lifesaver!
[06:07] <trappist> google seems to think this media:/ stuff is a kde3.5 thing.  I don't think I have kde3.5 (kubuntu/breezy)
[06:07] <jakykong> robotgeek: yep. well now i know about it :-) thanks again!
[06:08] <jakykong> (PS did that send one of those special messages?)
[06:08] <Snake__> !wifi
[06:08] <ubotu> somebody said wifi was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[06:08] <_nano_> !wifi
[06:08] <robotgeek> jakykong: what messages?
[06:09] <jakykong> like that one ... every so often one pops up from someone that is brown with white on top and makes a ding through my speakers ...
[06:10] <jakykong> first time i ever used irc so i have no idea if that is my client or the server telling my client to do that ...
[06:10] <Anakashar> argh.. has anyone here set up a USB gamepad, please?
[06:11] <jakykong> in windows :-P but i'm not going back to windows. EVER. Linux may be slightly harder to use, but its WAY faster and hasn't crashed yet (can't say the same for xp ... that crashed every day, and was slow as hell. same with 2k only worse. only reason i dual-boot is for software compatability that isn't always perfect in linux :-))
[06:12] <jakykong> uh ... i know knoppix works with mine just fine, auto-detects it ... not sure about kubuntu though ... its all-arround just different
[06:12] <jakykong> (sad to say, live-cd knoppix runs faster then hd-installed windows on my computer :-P but kubuntu is wAY faster then knoppix)
[06:12] <robotgeek> jakykong: that's your client, i mentioned you
[06:13] <jakykong> ah ok (good to know ... cause i was trying to figure out how to send one of those to someone else... /msg was the closest i could think of )
[06:15] <_nano_> how to enable a different browser for konversation links?
[06:16] <jakykong> thanks so much again. this is the first thing i've seen that actually tells me what to do (eventually, someday when i get a little better at linux i'll be able to figure it out :-P but for now, i'm completely dependant on people telling me what to do :-) hence why i'm dropping windows...)
[06:32] <dan> would this be a godd place to ask a kubuntu audio questio?
[06:37] <trappist> yes
[06:42] <swim> ey folks, I've installed kde on ubuntu (not kubuntu) but it seems to have installed 3.4 ... any ideas why? (supposed to be 3.5)
[07:00] <DJ_Mer_> _nano_: has been on a hella soviet radio spree today lmao

[07:20] <swim> is it just me or is kubuntu's kde unstabler then all hell?
[07:22] <M_Cheevy> is there a kde equivalent to gdmsetup for kdm (to change the login splash screen)?
[07:24] <SNake__> hey _nano_  we got problems
[07:26] <swim> has anyone had a stable experience with kubuntu? (honestly not being sarcastic)
[07:26] <SNake__> I have and am
[07:27] <M_Cheevy> swim: pretty stable, only one niggling problem outstanding (login screen manager)
[07:28] <M_Cheevy> swim: and that's probably due to upgrading to kde 3.5
[07:28] <swim> hmm ok, so it's known to be possible SNake__ ? I have heard from other's that kubuntu does something weird to it's kde install and its known to be a poor installation
[07:28] <SNake__> Not that I know of...
[07:28] <SNake__> I <3 my kubuntu
[07:29] <swim> ?
[07:29] <SNake__> I heart my kubuntu

[08:12] <DJ_Mer_> Snake__: it ran so well there was no need for an upgrade
[08:12] <DJ_Mer_> its error proof all digital, processes at a gigaflop, runs liek a cham, has no lag, is digitally tuned for the next century and is 100% non-obsolite.
[08:12] <DJ_Mer_> I am lean mean sexy and killing machines

[08:13] <DJ_Mer_> I am evolutionary, revolutionary, 100% foolproof and I am leading the industry with high definition and lossless audio quality.
[08:13] <Snake__> which would result in microsoft getting a beta verison...

[08:14] <Snake__> it wont move past "Checking battery state"
[08:14] <DJ_Mer_> I am there, I am hip, I am rad and I am the man with the easiest gui on the market, patent pending.

[08:24] <DJ_Mer_> i saw him, nader, and kerry live
[08:24] <DJ_Mer_> he was the only one i could bring myself to wake up and vote for.
[08:24] <Snake__> atleast kerry has a IQ above the tax rate
[08:24] <DJ_Mer_> i really hold no political opinion... what works now might not work tomorrow
[08:25] <Snake__> I go for what I feel is better
[08:25] <Snake__> and IMHO, the whole election sucked

[08:25] <DJ_Mer_> Snake__: to say i am one thing is wrong... crime, conservative... prostitution... liberal as can be
[08:25] <DJ_Mer_> child molestation, socialist... (execution), teen sex... 100% liberal
[08:26] <Snake__> I am diffrent on diffrent views, so ya
[08:26] <robotgeek> this is all offtopic, please take it there
[08:26] <DJ_Mer_> soviet radio is just a catchy name... for some catchy tunes that _nano_ can't turn off.
[08:26] <Snake__> robotgeek there is 3 people in here...
[08:26] <Snake__> must you be a admin?
[08:27] <Snake__> NOOO
[08:27] <Snake__> My linux is stock!
[08:27] <robotgeek> the point is there's a channel for offtopic chat, it doesn't look good in the logs :)
[08:27] <Snake__> LOL
[08:28] <Snake__> wtf is that!
[08:28] <DJ_Mer_> Snake__, _nano_ see you there?
[08:28] <DJ_Mer_> I'd rather not bust into an argument
[08:29] <Snake__> brb guys
[08:29] <DJ_Mer_> _nano_: ?? offtopic?
[08:29] <_nano_> DJ_Mer_: offtopic?
[08:30] <DJ_Mer_> _nano_: trying to avoid conflicts, join #kubuntu-offtopic
[08:30] <DJ_Mer_> robotgeek is getting mad at us
[08:30] <_nano_> oh ok :P
[08:30] <robotgeek> DJ_Mer_: i was not getting mad, i was merely suggesting that there's a channel there, and i would like to join your conversation there
[08:31] <DJ_Mer_> robotgeek: oh
[08:31] <_nano_> yeah robotgeek is right in a way
[08:31] <snake> I cant believe I lost all that
[08:31] <snake> lol
[08:31] <snake> *sigh*
[08:32] <robotgeek> snake: lost?
[08:32] <snake> all the changes I did with this wireless card just go reverted and set back
[08:32] <robotgeek> snake: *sigh*
[08:55] <dotdot> hi guys, is it normal for me to have to manually enter a route when ever I connect to my wireless AP?
[08:56] <dotdot> eg, for access to the internet I all ways need to type route add default gateway 192.168.1.1
[09:04] <_nano_>  /etc/network/interfaces ?
[09:05] <dotdot> yeah, i put it in that, then the internet was connecting on reboot.. then disconnecting after about 60 seconds.
[09:06] <dotdot> I thought I may have screwed something up initially though, so Im just seeing if there's anything else I should be checking.
[09:07] <dotdot> how's this for weird.. in kwifimanger, the AP mac address is all O's
[09:07] <dotdot> and when I scan for networks I cant see any..
[09:07] <dotdot> until I reboot.  then it works for another 60 seconds
[09:12] <CryptoQuick> Hello, everyone!
[09:13] <CryptoQuick> I'm really liking this Kubuntu as an alternative to Mac OS X. The programs for linux are definitely nice.
[09:14] <kona> good evening everyone
[09:14] <CryptoQuick> I'm having a few problems, though. My ALSA codec for my Mac mini won't adjust the volume through software.
[09:15] <kona> Anyone know if LILO can be used as the bootloader and if so how to install it? Looking to dump Xandros.
[09:17] <FatDave> hello all.  i just installed kubuntu and i'm having problems with my wireless network.  in the network settings window of KDE I click "enable" on my ath0 device and it flashes green for a split second and then goes to the disabled state again
[09:17] <FatDave> kwifimanager shows that its at least talking to my wireless router I think
[09:17] <FatDave> can anyone offer any suggestions?
[09:19] <FatDave> anybody home?
[09:19] <CryptoQuick> That's what I'm wondering.
[09:20] <FatDave> are you having a problem with something?
[09:20] <CryptoQuick> Just with my ALSA codec on PPC.
[09:21] <FatDave> mm.  sorry.  don't know much about that.  i'm a freebsd guy so I get frustrated when certain command line options don't work the same in linux
[09:22] <CryptoQuick> FreeBSD... Does that even have a gui?
[09:22] <FatDave> if can if you want it to
[09:22] <FatDave> doesn't install one by default like most linux's do
[09:23] <FatDave> you have to get the x server running yourself
[09:23] <CryptoQuick> Kind of like how you set up kcfe on the server version of Ubuntu?
[09:23] <_nano_> FatDave: i've heard it's a nightware to get the hardware recog done correctly :P
[09:23] <FatDave> then you can put any manager on top of that
[09:23] <CryptoQuick> Xcfe, I mean.
[09:23] <_nano_> *nightmare
[09:24] <kona> You have a Mac Mini and your not using OS X? Shame. I would love to own a mac.
[09:24] <CryptoQuick> Really? Heh... OS X is really cool, but Linux is cool too.
[09:24] <FatDave> _nano_: only problems i've ever had with hardware is getting this sound card to work.  they screwed up the driver for FreeBSD or something
[09:24] <_nano_> FatDave: wireless cards?
[09:25] <FatDave> _nano_: my wireless card works good if freebsd
[09:25] <kona> When someone who knows about LILO let me know guys.
[09:25] <FatDave> _nano_: so i'm surprised i can't get it working in linux
[09:25] <_nano_> FatDave: wow i would love to install FreeBSD sometime on my lappy
[09:26] <FatDave> _nano_: but i'm sure its not a problem with the card.  its probably some stupid setting i can't figure out
[09:26] <CryptoQuick> Oh, one thinbg; I was trying to take linux off of one computer to save hard drive space, but now the GRUB bootloader doesn't work. How should I fix this?
[09:26] <_nano_> FatDave: is there a newbie install guide for freeBSD? :)
[09:26] <FatDave> _nano_: in freebsd 6 they introduced a whole bunch of wpa stuff that they added
[09:26] <_nano_> FatDave: how is freebsd better?
Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra, which suddenly flips over, pinning you underneath.  At night, the ice weasels come.
[09:27] <_nano_> FatDave: i mean as a personal desktop os
[09:27] <FatDave> _nano_: i dont' know if its better.  but at least my wireless card works in it :)
[09:28] <FatDave> _nano_: i guess it depends of what you would use it for
[09:28] <_nano_> FatDave: i guess its good for servers and all
[09:28] <T3hWiz0rd> _nano_: free bsd is the core of open darwin which is the core of os x
[09:28] <FatDave> _nano_: if you want to use it to run games and such, linux would be better.  if you want to run servers it is very stable
[09:28] <T3hWiz0rd> look how far that came?
[09:29] <FatDave> _nano_: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html
[09:29] <FatDave> that handbook has a bunch of useful info
[09:29] <FatDave> so anyone have any ideas what my wireless problem could be in kubuntu?
[09:29] <robotgeek> FatDave: what wireless card
[09:30] <FatDave> ath
[09:30] <FatDave> card seems to be recognized an all.  ath drivers are loaded
[09:30] <FatDave> kwifimanager says that its connected
[09:30] <robotgeek> hmm, i don't use kubuntu, so sorry
[09:30] <FatDave> but dhclient doesn't produce anything
[09:30] <T3hWiz0rd> but its not DLing the porn properly.
[09:31] <FatDave> its like its only half talking
[09:31] <_nano_> FatDave: did you do a iwlist scanning?
[09:31] <FatDave> don't know what that is
[09:31] <_nano_> sudo iwlist scanning
[09:31] <FatDave> what does that do?
[09:31] <_nano_> it scans for available networks
[09:32] <_nano_> kinda check for the wirless card works or not
[09:32] <dell500> how do you find out what partitions are available to mount/umount in console?
[09:32] <dell500> i'm trying to get my winbloze partition id
[09:32] <FatDave> oh.  kwifimanager does that if you click on the "scan" button.  my wireless network show us "linksys."  which is correct
[09:32] <_nano_> dell500: check /etc/fstab file
[09:32] <_nano_> FatDave: try disabling and enabling wlan0
[09:33] <_nano_> sudo ifdown wlan0
[09:33] <FatDave> aht0 ?
[09:33] <_nano_> sudo ifup wlan0
[09:33] <FatDave> ath0
[09:33] <robotgeek> yes
[09:33] <_nano_> whatever you've your wireless on
[09:33] <FatDave> i've done that too
[09:33] <_nano_> so what does that show?
[09:33] <dell500> _nano_ nope, there is a list of partitions that are avaiable
[09:34] <FatDave> how do you set the wep options on the command line with ifconfig in kubuntu?
[09:34] <_nano_> dell500: i guess that answers your query doesn't it?
[09:34] <dell500> yes sir
[09:34] <robotgeek> FatDave: iwconfig wireless_essid whatever
[09:34] <_nano_> FatDave: you could edit your /etc/network/interfaces
[09:34] <_nano_> oh
[09:34] <_nano_> FatDave: you mean individual?
[09:35] <FatDave> iwconfig huh.  see, thats one of the differences that I don't know about :P  bsd just does it all with ifconfig
[09:35] <FatDave> is there a man page for iwconfig?
[09:35] <_nano_> iwconfig wlan0 essid networkname
[09:35] <FatDave> i can't check because i'm in my windows partition right now
[09:35] <_nano_> and like that
[09:36] <_nano_> http://linuxcommand.org/man_pages/iwconfig8.html
[09:36] <_nano_> FatDave: ^^
[09:36] <FatDave> thank you guys :)  i'm going to see if I can get farther with it now
[09:45] <T3hWiz0rd> someone say my name
[09:47] <T3hWiz0rd> ubotu: help

[10:42] <deFrysk> I have
[10:42] <deFrysk> afk dogwalk
[10:44] <Steven_> deFrysk, once I update what will the version number of kubuntu be?

[10:45] <TooSad> my kate crash always
[10:45] <TooSad> why?
[10:48] <TooSad> $ sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:48] <TooSad> Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-loviggi" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
[10:48] <TooSad> Link points to "/var/tmp/kdecache-root"
[10:48] <TooSad> kate: ERROR: Communication problem with kate, it probably crashed.
[10:48] <Steven_> ilba7r: once I update what will the version number of kubuntu be?
[10:48] <TooSad> what does it means?
[10:48] <ilba7r> steven what kde ver you have right no
[10:48] <ilba7r> w
[10:49] <Steven_> kde 3.5
[10:51] <Hobbsee> TooSad: use kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:51] <ilba7r> yes if you have the repos for it steven
[10:51] <TooSad>  kdesu what does it do?
[10:52] <TooSad> it is like sudo?
[10:54] <Steven_> ilba7r I have kde 3.5 now, it was installed by kubuntu 5.10 by default.
[10:55] <ilba7r> the bug was fixed recently steven_ after the release
[10:55] <martin> Im a newbie to Kubuntu, how do i do to enable grapichal root login?
[10:56] <ilba7r> martin if you are a newbie you never do a graphical root login
[10:57] <ilba7r> unless you know what you want you always use terminal base root login if you need it
[10:57] <ilba7r> you can do everything with sudo instead of su
[10:58] <martin> Yeah but i need to do a graphical root login, how can i enable it, plz help me out
[10:58] <ilba7r> why do you need it martin
[10:59] <aseigo> ilba7r: because he wants it. does it matter?
[10:59] <ilba7r> than he will need to search to know how
[10:59] <aseigo> martin: set it to boot into runlevel 5
[10:59] <aseigo> ilba7r: pfft
[10:59] <ilba7r> i am afraid he might ruin the filesystem
[11:00] <TooSad> how can compress in tar?
[11:00] <ilba7r> aseigo there is a reason newbies have no access to graphical root priv
[11:01] <martin> ok maybe im wrong but i need to add some internet protocols and it seems like the only way to do that is to login as root, or can i do it in an easier way?
[11:01] <aseigo> martin: just use sudo .. it'll ask for a password.. put in your user's password
[11:02] <martin> ok thx
[11:02] <Steven_> ilba7r: I understand that part, but when I do the update what components get updated what will the version numbers be?
[11:08] <deFrysk> Steven_, 5.10 has kde3.4x
[11:08] <deFrysk> Steven_, the repo has 3.5
[11:08] <martin> I have some problems to acess a shared LAN resource (Windows network), i can see the folder but im unable to watch the files inside. What to do?
[11:12] <TooSad> what is the best kernel for an amd athlon 1800+?
[11:12] <Tm_T> k7
[11:12] <TooSad> tnx
[11:12] <Steven_> deFrysk: my kbuntu intstalled DVD did install kde 3.5
[11:15] <Steven_> deFrysk: does that maen that I'm all up-do-date and that nothing can be done to fix my bug?
[11:16] <deFrysk> Steven_, what bug ?
[11:17] <Steven_> the bug where administration mode brakes.
[11:18] <deFrysk> Steven_, what are you trying to run in administration mode ?
[11:20] <Steven_> None of the administration tools in Settings work, because administration mode doesn't work.
[11:21] <kangpeh> anyone know where i can get some themes for KDE3.5 for kubuntu
[11:21] <Hobbsee> kangpeh: kde-look.org
[11:22] <Hobbsee> Steven_: use kdesu kcontrol or kdesu system settings

[11:24] <kangpeh> I tried the .deb for Ubuntu
[11:24] <kangpeh> and it didnt work because i was not made for kde 3.5
[11:24] <kangpeh> also i tried the .deb for debian and it didnt work
[11:24] <kangpeh> i tried compiling
[11:24] <kangpeh> and it didnt work
[11:24] <kangpeh> make -f Makefile.cvs btw u have to do that to get the configure
[11:24] <kangpeh> and the i configured
[11:24] <kangpeh> and everythingw as fine
[11:25] <kangpeh> so i did a make
[11:25] <kangpeh> and it failed in the compilation
[11:25] <kangpeh> :(
[11:25] <Hobbsee> kangpeh: did not work, or failed, isnt terribly useful
[11:25] <Hobbsee> what went wrong with the deb?
[11:25] <Hobbsee> error messages?
[11:25] <kangpeh> the deb?  it was made for kde 3.4
[11:25] <kangpeh> ti fails dependencies
[11:25] <kangpeh> cuz it wasn't made for kde 3.5
[11:26] <Hobbsee> kangpeh: compile it then
[11:26] <Hobbsee> what was the error with compiling?  pastebin it
[11:26] <kangpeh> lol
[11:26] <kangpeh> the error is pretty sreious
[11:26] <kangpeh> ur not going to be able to figure it out just from a pastebin
[11:27] <kangpeh> you'll have to look at it yourself for awhile
[11:27] <Hobbsee> just pastebin it...lol
[11:27] <Hobbsee> someone will know how to fix it
[11:27] <kangpeh> make -f Makefile.cvs works fine

[11:48] <kangpeh> 
[11:48] <kangpeh> i dunno
[11:59] <_robin> is there an easy way to run 32bit on kubuntu 64bit version ?
[12:00] <_robin> I need to run some software in 32bit modus, because there isn't a stable 64bit version.
[12:00] <hugelmopf> _robin: it is no problem if the needed libraries are available in 32bit versions as well.

[12:13] <Hattori> hello
[12:14] <Hobbsee> hi
[12:14] <Hattori> just installed kubuntu breezy on laptop
[12:14] <Hattori> acer aspire 1610
[12:14] <Hattori> wonder how can i install wireless
[12:14] <Hattori> it's embedded into laptop
[12:15] <Hattori> drivers for windows are:
[12:15] <Hattori> WNC wireless G (Broadcom)"WLAN 802.11g mini-PCI Module" 2K/XP 3.30.15
[12:15] <Hattori> from acer homepage
[12:15] <_nano_> do you know the directory where your drivers are installed?
[12:15] <_nano_> Hattori:
[12:16] <Hattori> i have to download them
[12:16] <Hattori> first
[12:16] <_nano_> !wifi
[12:16] <ubotu> hmm... wifi is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[12:16] <_nano_> ^^ check that link Hattori
[12:17] <Hattori> k thx
[12:18] <Hattori> hmm
[12:18] <Hattori> i don't even get wlan0 when i do iwconfig
[12:18] <_nano_> you went through all the steps?
[12:18] <_nano_> ndiswrapper etc/
[12:20] <Hattori> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SetupNdiswrapperHowto
[12:20] <Hattori> ok =)
[12:21] <emil> hello there
[12:22] <swim> folks I just added kde 3.5 repos to my source.list, whats the proper (best?) way to now update (upgrade?) to kde 3.5 ?
[12:22] <emil> just updatet my ubuntu  with kde packages, now i need to know where to get german language files from ?
[12:22] <Hobbsee> swim: sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:22] <swim> cool thx Hobbsee
[12:23] <swim> Hobbsee: btw do I need to disable backports, or/and universe?
[12:23] <Hobbsee> no, that'll be fine
[12:23] <martin> Is there any easy way to install xine-lib for kaffeine?
[12:24] <Hobbsee> martin: sudo apt-get install kaffeine-xine
[12:25] <martin> Dont work :(
[12:25] <_nano_> martin: what's the error?
[12:25] <martin> no such package
[12:25] <Hobbsee> !info kaffeine-xine
[12:25] <Hobbsee> !tell martin about repos
[12:26] <ubotu> kaffeine-xine: (xine engine for kaffeine media player), section universe/kde, is optional. Version: 0.7-0ubuntu4 (breezy), Packaged size: 174 kB, Installed size: 548 kB
[12:26] <Hobbsee> martin: you need to have universe
[12:26] <martin> Ok im a noob so i have to ask what is that?
[12:27] <Hobbsee> did you see what ubotu sent you?
[12:27] <swim> what are backports exactly? do I really want that apt-source in my list?
[12:27] <Hobbsee> in a private message
[12:27] <Hobbsee> !backports
[12:27] <ubotu> I heard backports is Add "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main universe multiverse restricted" (without the ") to /etc/apt/sources.list.  More info @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports
[12:27] <Hobbsee> swim: see the second link
[12:27] <martin> oh i see
[12:27] <swim> thx
[12:28] <_nano_> wonder why they call it "backports"
[12:28] <Chousuke> [5~tht's what they are
[12:29] <Chousuke> you port some new feature to the older system, and that's called backporting.
[12:30] <MrFarts> wow, kde 3.5 is nice ...
[12:30] <Chousuke> I've seen forwardporting being used once too. It's the opposite. :)
[12:30] <_nano_> what does forwardporting and backporting mean :-s
[12:31] <MrFarts> more specifically, konqueror is nice
[12:31] <MrFarts> seems much faster than firefox
[12:31] <andreas_> even my car is faster than firefox
[12:31] <_nano_> :P
[12:31] <Chousuke> And now finally includes AdBlock :P
[12:31] <Hobbsee> firefox 1.5's pretty fast
[12:31] <andreas_> this is my car: http://xjws.net:8000/gallery/Fiskeseminar-i-Loen-27-november-2005-Del-2/DSCF4566
[12:31] <andreas_> so you can imagine
[12:31] <Chousuke> andreas_: Firefox is plenty fast.
[12:31] <Hobbsee> especially if you go looking for some of the tweaks to make it faster
[12:32] <_nano_> yeah Konqeror hasn't been nice with me
[12:32] <Chousuke> only 1.0 just sucks on Linux
[12:32] <swim> oh damn, dist-upgrade installed linux-image-386... I had just installed linux-image-686
[12:33] <_robin> do_dchroot isn't on my system, nor can I find it in any package
[12:33] <_robin> what is its replacement?
[12:34] <MrFarts> i don't know konqueror seems blazing compared to firefox
[12:35] <andreas_> you should try Opera, it's blazing compared to konqueror
[12:35] <MrFarts> andreas_: i've tried opera -- konq seems faster
[12:36] <andreas_> you are living a lie
[12:36] <MrFarts> of course, "seems" is not an objective benchmark
[12:36] <MrFarts> andreas_ i'm not religious -- it may very well be; i just don't perceive it
[12:36] <MrFarts> konqueror seems perceptibly much faster than firefox
[12:36] <MrFarts> and somewhat faster than opera
[12:36] <andreas_> HERETIC
[12:37] <MrFarts> let me try opera to compare :)
[12:37] <andreas_> :)
[12:38] <MrFarts> andreas_: konqueror seems faster :)
[12:38] <MrFarts> andreas_: and opera looks like sh*t :)
[12:38] <_robin> nvm me
[12:38] <andreas_> hehe
[12:38] <andreas_> there's a QT theme for opera
[12:38] <andreas_> KDE/QT, that is
[12:39] <andreas_> blends in very well with it
[12:39] <_nano_> konq fails miserably when it comes to plugins
[12:40] <MrFarts> andreas_: i don't really care -- it doesn't seem any faster :)
[12:40] <MrFarts> _nano_: which plugins ?
[12:41] <_nano_> flash?
[12:42] <andreas_> yes that is true
[12:42] <andreas_> :(
[12:43] <MrFarts> anyone noticed that the kde clipboard editor stores the current copy buffer as null ?
[12:43] <MrFarts> for some reason the current selection is null
[12:43] <MrFarts> and the real current selection becomes previous selection
[12:43] <MrFarts> bizarre
[12:47] <Hattori> hmm
[12:47] <martin> Hmm i have installed kaffeine-xine but im still not able to watch xvid in kaffeine, what to do?
[12:47] <Hattori> trying to install ndiswrapper
[12:47] <Hattori> but i get error on gcc-3.4
[12:47] <Hattori> is says it doesn't found it
[12:47] <Hattori> i do apt-get install gcc-3.4 but it doesn't find it
[12:47] <Hattori> how can i do?
[12:48] <Hattori> and apt-cache search gcc finds 3.3 or 4.0
[12:50] <_robin> !fonts
[12:50] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com//FontInstallHowto
[12:50] <_robin> anyone knows the name of the package with the win32 fonts/
[12:51] <bimberi> !info msttcorefonts
[12:51] <ubotu> msttcorefonts: (Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts), section multiverse/x11, is optional. Version: 1.2ubuntu2 (breezy), Packaged size: 21 kB, Installed size: 164 kB
[12:51] <_robin> ah thx
[12:51] <bimberi> np :)
[12:51] <martin> i have installed kaffeine-xine but im still not able to watch xvid in kaffeine, what to do?
[12:51] <Hattori> anybody can help?
[12:53] <_robin> just install xine-ui
[12:53] <_robin> kaffeine is _not_ very stable..
[12:53] <_robin> or use mplayer
[12:54] <hugelmopf> Hattori: gcc-3.4 is in the main repository, you must be able to find it: apt-cache search gcc-3.4
[12:55] <hugelmopf> Hattori: otherwise your sources are messed up
[12:56] <Hattori> it doesn't ind anything =\
[12:56] <Hattori> find
[12:58] <Hattori> maybe i can find it on cd?
[12:59] <hugelmopf> Hattori: have you done an "sudo apt-get update" yet?
[12:59] <_robin> it's in the main repository, you really have to check your sources.list
[12:59] <Hattori> ya
[01:00] <Hattori> i don't have internet access
[01:00] <Hattori> i'm trying to install ndiswrapper
[01:00] <hugelmopf> Hattori: ok, maybe it is not on the cd? i am not sure
[01:01] <hugelmopf> let me check
[01:01] <_robin> ndiswrapper-source is in universe
[01:02] <hugelmopf> Hattori: correct, gcc-3.4 is not available on the install cd. you will need an internet connection for that.
[01:03] <Hattori> where to manual download it?
[01:04] <hugelmopf> Hattori: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gcc-3.4/gcc-3.4-base_3.4.4-6ubuntu8_i386.deb
[01:04] <hugelmopf> Hattori: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gcc-3.4/cpp-3.4_3.4.4-6ubuntu8_i386.deb
[01:04] <hugelmopf> Hattori: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gcc-3.4/gcc-3.4_3.4.4-6ubuntu8_i386.deb
[01:04] <hugelmopf> Hattori: you will need these three packages i believe
[01:05] <Hattori> and ho can i install them then?
[01:06] <hugelmopf> Hattori: with "sudo dpkg -i gcc-3.4-base_3.4.4-6ubuntu8_i386.deb" for example
[01:06] <martin> robin - i tried xine but i couldnt play the sound, maybe i should try VLC, do u know any easy way to install it?
[01:08] <_nano_> !vlc
[01:08] <ubotu> rumour has it, vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the repos)
[01:08] <_nano_> !ktorrent
[01:08] <ubotu> KTorrent is a KDE torrent Client. See: http://ktorrent.pwsp.net/index.php?page=downloads ; Ubu repository: deb http://dinton.no-ip.org/ kubuntu main
[01:12] <martin> Now it finally works, thx all
[01:25] <burepe> my usb device was not showing up when I pluged it in and I was told that there was a bug and I should up date. I did and now the usb works, but my drives don't appear in media:/ (the problem I was having with the usb before) and I get an error when I put in a dvd. The same error I had with the usb "An error occurred while loading media:/hdc:
[01:25] <burepe> The file or folder media:/hdc does not exist." What is going on?
[01:25] <hugelmopf> _nano_: a recent version of ktorrent is in breezy-backports, which is probably better then what ubotu told you.
[01:29] <_nano_> hugelmopf: yeah i got that from adept just now :) thanks
[01:30] <hugelmopf> ubotu no, ktorrent is "KTorrent is a KDE bittorrent client. It is available in breezy/universe, while the latest version is available in breezy-backports/universe."
[01:30] <ubotu> okay, hugelmopf
[01:30] <hugelmopf> !ktorrent
[01:30] <ubotu> ktorrent is, like, "KTorrent is a KDE bittorrent client. It is available in breezy/universe, while the latest version is available in breezy-backports/universe."
[01:31] <hugelmopf> hmmm... that does not really sound well. what did i do wrong?
[01:32] <hugelmopf> ubotu no, ktorrent is a KDE bittorrent client. It is available in breezy/universe, while the latest version is available in breezy-backports/universe.
[01:32] <ubotu> hugelmopf: okay
[01:33] <_nano_> oops
[01:33] <_nano_> i got the one from breezy/universe i guess
[01:33] <hugelmopf> 1.0 in breezy, 1.1 in breezy-backports
[01:37] <burepe> What does noauto mean in fstab?
[01:42] <Tm_T> burepe: not mounted on boot
[01:42] <andrzej> somebody have a ati radeon 9200se 128mb?
[01:42] <burepe> so auto would mount
[01:42] <burepe> ?
[01:44] <burepe> Tm_T, did you see the post I made a little earlier? My devices are not working.
[01:44] <Tm_T> burepe: you're trying to add usb what to fstab?
[01:45] <burepe> my usb wasnt working so I updated like i was told
[01:46] <burepe> now dvd device isnt working
[01:46] <andrzej>     * deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde35 breezy main
[01:46] <burepe> and my drives are mounted but there are no devices for them in media:/
[01:49] <_jeff> how do I search packages containing libXi.so?
[01:50] <Tm_T> apt-file search libXi.so? ?
[02:09] <_jeff> When I do gcc -lXi, it only works if there is /usr/lib/libXi.so, not /usr/lib/libXi.so.6. How can I fix this besides make a symbolic link?
[02:12] <Hattori> why the root password that works on console mode doesn't work in gui mode?
[02:13] <Hattori> i start an application that needs administrator pass, but it doesn't work
[02:13] <Hattori> (just installed kubuntu breezy)
[02:15] <MenZa`> Hattori: did you upgrade from Ubuntu (sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop)?
[02:15] <Hattori> ya
[02:15] <MenZa`> Ah
[02:15] <MenZa`> Always read the little bits
[02:15] <MenZa`> It asks for root password, but it's actually your user password
[02:16] <MenZa`> (IIRC)
[02:16] <Hattori> user pass and root pass are the same
[02:16] <MenZa`> Hmm
[02:17] <MenZa`> not sure then
[02:20] <Hattori> click the administarotr mode button to allow modifications
[02:20] <Hattori> i click, enter user/root pass but nothing happens
[02:24] <JDahl> writing CDs under Kubuntu/k3b is awfully slow for me (4x), and it seems to use a lot of CPU ressources while writing. By google I found out that a lot of people have this problem, and some suggest turning on DMA support for the CD/DVD drive - is that solid advice?
[02:31] <godardth> hi
[02:32] <godardth> i'v a problem with my screen
[02:32] <godardth> someone could help me ?
[02:32] <Kibou> JDahl: yes
[02:32] <godardth> thx
[02:32] <godardth> so (i'm french)
[02:32] <godardth> i can't change my resolution
[02:33] <godardth> i'v just install kubuntu 5.10
[02:33] <godardth> and i'm blocked at 640 * 480 max
[02:35] <Kibou> dunno.. try sudu dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:36] <Kibou> if that doesn't work either check if there are horizsync and vertrefresh entries in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:43] <Hattori> i installed ndiswarpper succesfully
[02:43] <Hattori> then i did -i and -m
[02:43] <Hattori> but card still doesn't work
[02:46] <pointwood> anyone know of a good music tagging program?
[02:47] <DHGE> pointwood: kid3
[02:47] <godardth> thx
[02:48] <pointwood> DHGE: I will check that out
[02:48] <Hattori> anybody know how to setup wlan0 using console?
[02:48] <Hattori> since can't use the damn kde in root mode =\
[02:49] <DHGE> Hattori: install "sux" from universe - then you can ...
[02:52] <Hattori> ?
[02:52] <Hattori> apt-get install sux ?
[02:56] <Hattori> where is the file that tells wlan0 wich ip use etc?
[02:56] <DHGE> Hattori: yes (from universe)
[02:56] <Hattori> i'm not connected to internet
[02:57] <Hattori> since i'm trying to install the wifi card
[02:57] <JDahl> burning (in simulation mode) is still slow after enable DMA and 32bit I/O - now I get 4x-12x speed, but I should be able to get 40x. A problem seems to be that the device buffer can't keep up and runs empty; k3b says my writer has a 2MB hardware buffer, but I would still expect it to work better (I havent tried writing under Windows with it).
[02:57] <Hattori> and apt-get install sux says no such "sux" package
[02:57] <Hattori> where is the file that tells wlan0 wich ip use etc?
[02:58] <DHGE> Hattori: UNIVERSE - look at /etc/apt/sources.list and get rid of the # in front of it
[03:00] <Hattori> don't have internet access
[03:00] <Hattori> can't download packages
[03:00] <DHGE> JDahl: cdrecord takes into account the media type - are you using high speed media?
[03:03] <DHGE> Hattori: your ghost typing here? load the deb (it is a shell script anyway) and put it in another machine
[03:04] <DHGE> http://packages.debian.org/testing/admin/sux
[03:05] <robotgeek> Hattori: /etc/network/interfaces
[03:06] <JDahl> DHGE, I think so, the CDs have "52x speed" printed on them. I also read some advice about disabling "kded media manager", but that doesnt sound like quality advice to me..
[03:08] <_DexterF> hi
[03:08] <_DexterF> anyone know where to get Xorg R6.9/7.0 RC4 packages?
[03:11] <DHGE> JDahl: read man cdrecord - topic speed ?
[03:17] <yorirou> hi
[03:17] <yorirou> i have some problem with the breezy
[03:17] <yorirou> it's very slow
[03:17] <yorirou> i can only watch a DVD with -framedrop in mplayer
[03:18] <yorirou> the xine or any other gstreamer-based player eats all of my CPU
[03:18] <yorirou> i installed the nvidia driver as mentioned in the starters' guide
[03:19] <yorirou> have you got any clue what is the problem?
[03:20] <andreas_> yorirou, have you built a custom kernel?
[03:20] <_DexterF> DMA enabled?
[03:20] <DHGE> yorirou: you could try to load a "better" linux-image for your CPU (going from 386 to 686 in my case helped a lot)
[03:20] <yorirou> i'm using the i686 kernel image
[03:20] <_DexterF> is X properly conf'ed? xserver and such? using Xv or Xshm for xine?
[03:20] <yorirou> and my dma is enabled as well
[03:20] <yorirou> i'm using xv
[03:21] <yorirou> my X server is configured properly, i'm using the same values as in my gentoo
[03:21] <_DexterF> hm, sounds good. cpu/ram/graphics?
[03:22] <yorirou> i have 2GHz Celeron, with 512MB DDR and a Siluro GF4 Ti4200 128MB graphics card
[03:22] <_DexterF> shold be more than enough to play dvds, alright.
[03:22] <_DexterF> same prob with other video or dvds only?
[03:23] <yorirou> same with other videos
[03:23] <yorirou> i got fewer fps in the glxgears as under gentoo i got
[03:24] <deFrysk> !glxgears
[03:24] <ubotu> rumour has it, glxgears is To display the FPS type "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark"
[03:24] <danst> hi I would like to change from ubuntu to kubuntu... so i installed kubuntu-desktop and i am quite happy with it. To make the change complete I would like to uninstall all the gnome stuff... but I dont know which packages I can remove (I am still using evolution)
[03:24] <deFrysk> iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark
[03:24] <deFrysk> ;p
[03:25] <yorirou> all of the videos are unwatchable with gl or gl2 output
[03:25] <_DexterF> gl and gl2 are experimental and not meant for daily use
[03:25] <yorirou> i got 10-12k fps, but under gentoo i got around 19-21k fps
[03:25] <deFrysk> yorirou, good for you
[03:25] <_DexterF> glxgears means sh!t.
[03:26] <_DexterF> are you using nvidia closed src drivers?
[03:26] <yorirou> i installed the nvidia drivers as in the starters' guide mentioned
[03:27] <_DexterF> hmm, could be the culprit. don't know about NV, but here the ATI drivers were not installed properly.
[03:27] <_DexterF> some lib was not replaced hence I only get 2D but no accel.
[03:28] <_DexterF> I'd try open src drivers in case you can part with 3D
[03:30] <yorirou> these drivers worked perfectly under gentoo...
[03:31] <DHGE> yorirou: watch with "top" what's eating your CPU cycles
[03:31] <yorirou> the player application
[03:32] <yorirou> or during the games the X sometimes eats temporanly all of my CPU
[03:32] <DHGE> CPU? RAM?
[03:33] <yorirou> i have a 2GHz Celeron with 512MB DDR and I have a Siluro GF4 Ti4200 with 128MB VRAM
[03:34] <yorirou> and i also cannot use the amarok... it makes freezes the entire system...
[03:34] <DHGE> yorirou: maybe you need "legacy" nvidia drivers for your card - look at the ubuntu repository
[03:35] <DHGE> yorirou: amarok sounds more like another problem - try top or better htop
[03:35] <_robin> how do I turn off the irritating beep you hear in konsole when pressing tab etc.
[03:36] <yorirou> the legacy drivers are good for "TNT2, TNT Ultra, GeForce, and GeForce2 chipsets"
[03:36] <DHGE> you have GeForce I guess
[03:37] <yorirou> i have GF4
[03:37] <yorirou> before the amarok freezes my system, it eats all of my CPU
[03:38] <DHGE> amarok? or gstreamer or ...
[03:38] <vendor> hi
[03:38] <yorirou> the amarok uses arts
[03:39] <DHGE> i switched off arts
[03:39] <Tm_T> amaroK doesn't use arts unless you set it to use
[03:39] <DHGE> have a separate soundcard
[03:39] <vendor> Just upgraded to breezy - so far everything seems to be up and working again. BUT: Everytime I start Konqueror, I have to focus the address field first.
[03:40] <vendor> This is extremly annoying. Anyone knows a fix?
[03:40] <yorirou> i set it to use because when is used amarok the gstreamer cannot play mp3s
[03:40] <Tm_T> vendor: yeah, I'm used to open new tab for start so that doesnt' annoy me much
[03:40] <Tm_T> yorirou: it can
[03:40] <yorirou> yes, it can now
[03:41] <_robin> how do I turn off the irritating beep you hear in konsole when pressing tab etc.?
[03:41] <yorirou> i forgot to run the gstreamer's register program
[03:41] <Tm_T> yorirou: apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins
[03:41] <Tm_T> that too =)
[03:41] <yorirou> robin: in the control panel
[03:42] <Tm_T> _robin: in Konsole,
[03:42] <Tm_T> _robin: settings -> Configure notifications
[03:43] <_robin> ok thx
[03:43] <Tm_T> don't thank until it's fixed ;)
[03:43] <Tm_T> I'm not sure if that's defined there
[03:44] <_robin> well it isn't :D
[03:44] <DHGE> vendor: try creating a new konqueror profile
[03:46] <vendor> DHGE: OK - So how do it make that the default profile? I.e.if I click on the Konqi Icon next to the K-Menu it opens that profile?
[03:47] <DHGE> http://www.kubuntu.org/faq.php#konqueror and setting in your konqi
[03:52] <vendor> DHGE: That didn't help. Still the same behaviour. The address field is unfocused...
[03:53] <_mats> Hi, I'm having some trouble with K3B. I'm not able to mount a DVD-RW (or DVD+RW) after burning. I need to restart my computer for it to work. No error messages, nothing... Also K3B cannot verify any written data because it ejects the dvd once first, and after that it won't work - tries to find the disk but doesn't. The data is written - one reboot and the disk works again =) Can someone give me a clue of what's going on? Kubuntu 5.10 with
[03:54] <DHGE> THAT will not help - BUT you see that there *are* different profiles and then you get the idea how to create your own (I thought) ;-)
[03:54] <Hattori> if i'm able to ping another pc of my network, why can't i open a web page?
[03:55] <vendor> Oh. Well I know that there are different profiles. And I
[03:55] <vendor> 'm pretty happy with the default one actually.
[03:55] <DHGE> the default one does the focus thing not to your linking...
[03:55] <vendor> But since I've updated to hoary the "Location"-Textfield-Thingy is now focused by default when I start up konqueror.
[03:56] <vendor> Sorry, I have no idea how to change the focus behaviour in a profile.
[03:56] <Juerd> vendor: Hi, the troubleshooting guide says I should ask you for replacement parts.
[03:56] <DHGE> vendor: so do I - that is why I would create a NEW profile ...
[03:56] <Juerd> vendor: Could you get me a replacement 1002844?
[03:57] <vendor> Juerd: Are you some sort of BOFH?
[03:57] <Juerd> vendor: No
[03:57] <vendor> Then I have no idea what a replacement 1002844 is.
[03:57] <DHGE> Hattori: ping www.heise.de
[03:58] <Flixor-> question does anybody how the nx web companion works
[03:58] <DHGE> if this does not work: firewall, router-settings ...
[03:58] <Flixor-> because i installed it, but dont know what alese todo
[03:59] <yorirou> thx for the help, i must go
[03:59] <yorirou> byez
[04:03] <paolo> how can i update my system?

[04:03] <andreas_> apt-get update
[04:03] <andreas_> and then
[04:03] <andreas_> apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:06] <vendor> DHGE, Tm_T: Thanks for your help. It seems as if this is a known bug: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64868
[04:07] <DHGE> vendor: interesting - esp. popular vote :-)

[04:53] <Vivaldi> hello
[04:53] <Vivaldi> i'd like to know why i can't login as root
[04:53] <osh_> Vivaldi: it's disabled
[04:53] <Vivaldi> how can i change the things then??
[04:53] <osh_> Vivaldi: sudo
[04:54] <Vivaldi> i have to setup the network..etc.. the system manager asks for root password and it's disabled? it has no sense
[04:54] <rev> take your main account password
[04:55] <Vivaldi> what do you mean?
[04:55] <osh_> what system manager? and are you sure it doesn't ask for your password?
[04:55] <Vivaldi> "main account" could you define it?
[04:55] <osh_> Vivaldi: the one you login to the system with.
[04:55] <Vivaldi> osh_, i said that the application asks for root password, but it can't let me login
[04:55] <Vivaldi> i also tried with the user account
[04:55] <Vivaldi> nothing
[04:56] <Vivaldi> is it possible to know why ?
[04:56] <osh_> what application? webmin? usermin?
[04:56] <Vivaldi> it's the fourth time it happens
[04:56] <Vivaldi> four installations
[04:56] <Vivaldi> osh_, the ones you can access through the menu in the panel
[04:57] <Vivaldi> i have two damn users in the system: root and Vivaldi. i tried to give the password ,but nothing
[04:57] <Vivaldi> it's the fourth time it happens on two different systems / hardware
[04:58] <Vivaldi> i have never been able to use kubuntu
[04:58] <Vivaldi> never
[04:58] <osh_> funny, it asks me for my password, not the root one.
[04:58] <dashinho> cool down Vivaldi
[04:58] <Vivaldi> ok ok
[04:59] <Vivaldi> i chose the expert installation with shadow passoword support. does this help?
[04:59] <osh_> Vivaldi: what happens if you write sudo -v in a console?
[04:59] <dashinho> Hello... I have a weird problem with Firefox and Kubuntu (not quite sure if this happens on gnome)... when I try to open a site with flash it freezes, I can't do anything. I installed the flash plugin for mozilla but that didn't work. It also randomly freezes on any site after like 10minutes. Any idea of what may be happening here?
[04:59] <Vivaldi> osh_, i would have to reboot in kubuntu and tell you that and reboot again here
[05:00] <jakykong> ok ... probably a stupid question ... i have a folder on my desktop somehow that has root permissions only ... can't delete it using konqueror ... so i need to use the command line. it has lots of sub-directories, so using a combination of rm and rmdir is SLOW. does anyone know of an rmdir-like command that will remove the whole brach of the file tree rather then just the single directory specified if its empty?
[05:00] <Vivaldi> jakykong, rm -rf <namedir>
[05:01] <jakykong> -rf? didn't see that when i typed --help ... (or -r or -f)
[05:01] <jakykong> k thanks
[05:01] <osh_> jakykong: be careful with the -f flag. that's force and could cause you grief if you're not careful.
[05:01] <jakykong> yep, will do. i can garauntee that this particular directory isn't going to cause me grief :-)
[05:01] <jakykong> thanks again
[05:02] <Vivaldi> jakykong, are you using kubuntu? you may want to do "rm -rf /" as root, since probably you cant use it like me
[05:02] <Vivaldi> jakykong, i am kidding
[05:02] <jakykong> heh
[05:02] <osh_> jakykong: I'm just saying that -r and -f in combination could delete your whole homedir if mistype something. You could start konq with sudo and have a root-konq...
[05:02] <robotgeek> jakykong: don't do that!
[05:02] <dashinho> any idea on my problem?
[05:03] <osh_> jakykong: many of us have deleted things using rm -rf in an improper way.
[05:03] <jakykong> well, it worked perfectly :-)
[05:03] <Vivaldi> so...is there any idea about my problem which keeps repeating everytime i install kubuntu?
[05:03] <jakykong> tried sudo konqueror ... never managed to get it open ... don't know why
[05:04] <Vivaldi> jakykong, hheheheh yeah i see
[05:04] <rev> Vivaldi: did you try setting a root password with "sudo passwd" and use this one for the panel?
[05:05] <osh_> Vivaldi: I've never seen that problem. For me it's always my normal password. Only time it asked for "root" was in webmin and that's not even a part of kubuntu. (its in uni/multiverse I think)
[05:05] <Vivaldi> rev, i can do whatever you suggest, really. i just wonder why these problems only happen to me (and jakykong)
[05:05] <jakykong> i use root all the time :-) just whenever i would use sudo konqueror, it would give me a bunch of errors like "Error: '/tmp/kde-jack' is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0." and such and then quits
[05:06] <Vivaldi> did you install kubuntu with "expert"?
[05:06] <MIsTeRIoZ> hi
[05:06] <MIsTeRIoZ> I have one question
[05:06] <jakykong> uh ... i just used the default installer ... (don't remember anything about expert)
[05:06] <MIsTeRIoZ> I have big problem
[05:06] <robotgeek> MIsTeRIoZ: ask (as long as it's not too hard :) )
[05:06] <Vivaldi> it might be a problem in expert mode
[05:06] <MIsTeRIoZ> i've just installed kubuntu
[05:07] <MIsTeRIoZ> and my eth0 does not work in my netwokr
[05:07] <jakykong> something tells me if i came across an expert mode option then i'd probably not want to select it (at least until i knew more about linux)
[05:07] <MIsTeRIoZ> and my eth0 does not work in my netwokr
[05:07] <MIsTeRIoZ> ifconfig gives everything as it should
[05:08] <MIsTeRIoZ> but my eth0 does not ping other computers in network
[05:08] <MIsTeRIoZ> ???
[05:08] <MIsTeRIoZ> lspci also recognizes the lan card
[05:08] <MIsTeRIoZ> and everything is ok
[05:08] <jakykong> ok .... i'm obviousely no expert, but let me see if i can help ... first off, what error messages are you getting? (and what did you do to get them?)
[05:09] <MIsTeRIoZ> anyone????
[05:09] <jakykong> MisTeRioz: my last message :-)
[05:10] <jakykong> Gladly i'll do my best to help you (though for me... i'm a noob myself so i might or might not be able to figure it out :-) but i'll try my best)
[05:11] <jakykong> did you get any error messages?
[05:11] <no0tic> hi
[05:11] <no0tic> how can I make ipod kioslave work?
[05:14] <Insomniac-> what is /debootstrap and can i safely remove it?
[05:15] <EauTisse> hi, I have "ne io=0x300 irq=10" in /etc/modules .... if I look at the IRQ list in Kinfocenter I see ne2000 on *both* IRQ 10 & 11
[05:15] <EauTisse> what's causing this ?
[05:18] <zokidimovski> hi again
[05:18] <zokidimovski> little help here plaese
[05:18] <zokidimovski> my network card does not ping other computers in the network
[05:18] <zokidimovski> and the card is configured during the installation
[05:18] <zokidimovski> and everything is ok
[05:19] <zokidimovski> and when it's pluged into a swich or hub the switch or the hub does not show that is connected
[05:19] <zokidimovski> and I dont get this problem in mandriva
[05:19] <zokidimovski> or gentoo
[05:19] <zokidimovski> they work just fine
[05:19] <zokidimovski> ideas?
[05:20] <rev> zokidimovski: is the network interface brought up correctly? check ifconfig
[05:21] <zokidimovski> yes it is
[05:21] <zokidimovski> is shows the ip as I configured it
[05:21] <Insomniac-> lights on hub/nic on?
[05:21] <zokidimovski> off
[05:21] <Insomniac-> cable problem most likely
[05:21] <zokidimovski> not
[05:22] <zokidimovski> I'm connected to it right now
[05:22] <zokidimovski> on my mandriva
[05:22] <zokidimovski> no problems
[05:22] <Insomniac-> hmm
[05:23] <ClayG> other nodes turned on?
[05:23] <zokidimovski> what nodes?
[05:23] <ClayG> The ones that "aren't responding"
[05:24] <zokidimovski> wait I dont understand you quite well
[05:24] <ClayG> and something that has messed me up a time or two: are you certain you are pinging the right IP's of the other nodes(computers connected to a network)
[05:24] <zokidimovski> no I'm not pinging them
[05:24] <zokidimovski> at all
[05:24] <zokidimovski> the network card is configured
[05:24] <zokidimovski> but does not work
[05:25] <ClayG> ahh what did you mean when you said " my network card does not ping other computers in the network"
[05:25] <zokidimovski> ok
[05:25] <Hattori> if uname -r is "2.6.12-9-386" and uname -m is "i686" something is wrong?
[05:25] <Hattori> i should install the 2.6.12-9-686 instead?
[05:25] <ClayG> Nah
[05:25] <zokidimovski> my computer does not ping other computers
[05:25] <ClayG> Isn't one the kernel version and the other the classifiction of your machine?
[05:26] <ClayG> zokidimovski: type ping clayg
[05:26] <zokidimovski> ping clayd
[05:26] <Hattori> ya
[05:26] <zokidimovski> ping clayg
[05:26] <ClayG> er /ping clayg (lol i think)
[05:26] <ClayG> hahah
[05:26] <Hattori> shouldn't be the same?
[05:26] <ClayG> ok
[05:26] <zokidimovski> sorry
[05:26] <ClayG> you pinged me
[05:26] <zokidimovski> yes but I'm not in kubuntu
[05:26] <ClayG> Hattori try uname -a
[05:27] <zokidimovski> when I'm in kubuntu I dont have network connection
[05:27] <ClayG> Hattori: I get Linux oldman 2.6.12-10-386 #1 Fri Nov 18 11:51:02 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:27] <Hattori_> Linux xxx 2.6.12-9-386 #1 Mon Oct 10 13:14:36 BST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:27] <Hattori_> and is ok ?
[05:27] <ClayG> You dont get the lights?
[05:27] <rev> Hattori: your hardware is i686 and you are running an i386 kernel...thats no problem though because i686 is compatible to i386
[05:28] <Hattori_> ic
[05:28] <Hattori_> but wouldn't bemore efficient to install 686?
[05:28] <rev> yes, maybe :)
[05:28] <ClayG> I wonder what change they made during the 80386's that was signifigant
[05:28] <zokidimovski> no I dont get the lighrs
[05:28] <zokidimovski> no I dont get the lights
[05:28] <ClayG> I know that some of the stuff is technology from even the XT days (8088/8086)
[05:29] <ClayG> That sucks zokidimovski at least you get connectivity though. I rather have that an no lights., then lights and no connectivity
[05:29] <ClayG> heck maybe a led light is burned out
[05:29] <ClayG> have you reset/recylcled the modem to see?
[05:29] <Hattori_> and how to install 686 version?
[05:29] <Hattori_> atm i'm doing dit-upgrade
[05:29] <ClayG> ;)
[05:30] <Hattori_> atm i'm doing dist-upgrade
[05:30] <zokidimovski> nope thats not the problem
[05:30] <zokidimovski> Hattori_ you dont have to do anything because what you want to do is irellevant
[05:31] <zokidimovski> you wont change anything
[05:31] <zokidimovski> that's the arch of the cpu
[05:31] <zokidimovski> x86 technology
[05:31] <Hattori_> lol
[05:32] <zokidimovski> so nobody with idea what can be the problem why I dont get any kind of connectivity in kubuntu
[05:32] <zokidimovski> ?
[05:33] <rev> Hattori_: apt-cache search linux-image  ....pick one and do apt-get install <yourcedicision> ;-)
[05:33] <Xemanth^> is it possible to use Sarge packages in Breezy?
[05:33] <ClayG> man my back is killing me
[05:34] <ClayG> time for some medicine guys
[05:34] <ClayG>    ........     o[05:34] <ClayG> much better
[05:34] <DsM> is Riddell here?
[05:35] <rev> zokidimovski: what does "dmesg| grep eth" tell you? paste it here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[05:35] <ClayG> Xemanth: using non ubuntu packages has screwed me on a few occasions
[05:35] <ClayG> and you would think wouldnt be a problem. but it has for me
[05:35] <Riddell> DsM: hi
[05:36] <zokidimovski> ok i'll restart now and check
[05:36] <zokidimovski> see you soon
[05:36] <ClayG> gimme a shell and I'll take a look
[05:38] <DsM> Riddell: would you happen to know of a faster rsync server than rsync://releases.ubuntu.com/releases ??? i have been downloading all night and have only gotten like 11 iso's .... it doesnt seem to be going that fast... i know i could download faster on my end
[05:40] <Riddell> DsM: that's the definitive server for CDs, maybe other mirrors offer rsync I'm not sure
[05:41] <Riddell> DsM: mirrorservice.org will, but they won't be right up to date for at release time
[05:41] <DsM> ahhhh
[05:41] <DsM> ok
[05:41] <DsM> just out of couriosity... what is the .pool folder for?
[05:42] <Riddell> DsM: I think that's something to do with letting mirrors get CDs before the masses do, you'd need to ask mirror@ubuntu.com
[05:42] <Riddell> mirrors@ubuntu.com rather
[05:42] <DsM> yeah havent recieved a responce from that... .except the auto responce... in the week i have been thinking about doing this
[05:42] <Riddell> DsM: let me know when you have a complete set and I'll add you to the kubuntu.org/download.php page
[05:42] <DsM> ok
[05:43] <Riddell> DsM: the dude you want is znarl on IRC
[05:47] <Snake__> Any wireless gurus avalible?

[06:17] <VincentMX> hi
[06:17] <rev> hah, cool down :-)
[06:18] <LacertaII> hello
[06:18] <_snake> I had to do a dhclient wlan0
[06:18] <VincentMX> what have you got, _snake?
[06:18] <_snake> Wireless working
[06:18] <VincentMX> ok
[06:18] <VincentMX> :D
[06:19] <VincentMX> why does kubuntu use USplash instead of BootSplash? BootSplash has much more bling bling and is very pimp as well
[06:19] <slow-motion> hallo
[06:20] <LacertaII> i need to get internet to my linux machine through winXP, can you give some hints?
[06:20] <VincentMX> much more colors and stuff
[06:22] <VincentMX> LacertaII, do you use your winXP box as router then?
[06:22] <rev> LacertaII: if ICS is set up correctly ... do "route add default gw <yourwinXPip>" and dont forget to add your nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf
[06:23] <VincentMX> anybody knows why kubuntu doesn't use BootSplash?
[06:24] <_snake> How would I set up modprobe to add ndiswrapper on boot??
[06:24] <bam_> where do i stop kde from opening a mounted device in a winow on my desktop
[06:25] <rev> _snake: I would just add the module to /etc/modules
[06:26] <_snake> How would I do that tho?
[06:26] <_snake> sudo cp /etc/ndiswrapper /etc/module?
[06:27] <rev> open /etc/modules in your favorite text editor and add the module name below the others
[06:27] <_snake> oh...so ndiswrapper?
[06:27] <rev> yes
[06:27] <_snake> Thanks :)
[06:30] <_snake> brb guys, I wanna restart and check this

[06:34] <hugelmopf> jahshua: try "sudo kwrite /etc/modprobe.d/aliases"
[06:34] <hugelmopf> jahshua: gedit is installed on a ubuntu installation, but not on kubuntu. so replace it with kwrite, whereever you read it.
[06:34] <DjDarkman> hy
[06:36] <hugelmopf> hrfurra: i think in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf there is an option "Listen" which is set to 127.0.0.1

[07:12] <fatejudger> I hate my Xbox 360
[07:12] <callie> y?
[07:13] <Xemanth^> :D
[07:13] <fatejudger> callie: someone offered 1k for it
[07:13] <fatejudger> callie: in the line I was in
[07:13] <Xemanth^> fatejudger: and why do you say that in Kubuntu channel? :P
[07:13] <fatejudger> I was on my way to #kopete
[07:13] <fatejudger> #kubuntu is the first channel that pops up in Konversation
[07:13] <Insomniac-> fatejudger: why didn't you sell it?
[07:13] <callie> you can change that fatejudger
[07:14] <fatejudger> my friend said that he would kick my ass if I did
[07:14] <callie> lol
[07:14] <fatejudger> and he probably wouldn't have spoken to me
[07:14] <Insomniac-> kick his ass and pocket that profit
[07:14] <callie> :D
[07:14] <fatejudger> yeah, he wanted to do a 360 LAN
[07:14] <callie> sounds like a plan
[07:14] <Insomniac-> can't make money any faster than that :)
[07:14] <fatejudger> I would have made 600 dollars in profit
[07:14] <fatejudger> well
[07:14] <fatejudger> I was there all night
[07:14] <fatejudger> and all day yesterday
[07:14] <Insomniac-> so what
[07:14] <callie> im waiting for the xbox prices to crash, the original ones that is
[07:14] <fatejudger> since 2 PM yesterday
[07:14] <Insomniac-> that's 600 dollars for 2 days of standing around
[07:14] <fatejudger> callie: lol
[07:14] <fatejudger> callie: ebay?
[07:15] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: 18 hours
[07:15] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: and it was about 40 degrees out
[07:15] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: and it was pouring rain
[07:15] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: pouring
[07:15] <callie> fatejudger: perhaps, but a new one will cost around 70 soon
[07:15] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: I was lucky to be one of the 10 people under the eve
[07:15] <Insomniac-> fatejudger: i would've sold it and bought another one a few weeks later
[07:15] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: same here
[07:15] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: but he would have been pissed
[07:16] <Insomniac-> so what it's your money
[07:16] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: true, but then he wouldn't have spoken to me
[07:16] <Insomniac-> than he's an asshole (:
[07:16] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: and probably would have hit my every time he came over
[07:16] <Insomniac-> then*
[07:16] <EauTisse> hi, I have "ne io=0x300 irq=10" in /etc/modules .... if I look at the IRQ list in Kinfocenter I see ne2000 on *both* IRQ 10 & 11
[07:16] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: he would have still hung out with me, he just would be pissed all the time
[07:17] <EauTisse> is there a problem with my setup ?
[07:18] <fatejudger> I didn't feel like listening to it
[07:18] <fatejudger> I felt really bad for the person in front of me, who didn't want an Xbox, but was just there to keep someone company
[07:18] <Insomniac-> see
[07:18] <fatejudger> she could have gotten a ticket
[07:18] <fatejudger> and just sold it
[07:18] <Insomniac-> that's what real friends do
[07:18] <fatejudger> lol
[07:18] <EauTisse> sorry for the spam, I just disconnected myself by mistake ...
[07:18] <EauTisse> hi, I have "ne io=0x300 irq=10" in /etc/modules .... if I look at the IRQ list in Kinfocenter I see ne2000 on *both* IRQ 10 & 11
[07:18] <fatejudger> they were sisters I think
[07:18] <fatejudger> it's different
[07:18] <Insomniac-> not whine about what you do with your money :)
[07:19] <fatejudger> the bummer about it is, I'm just pissed
[07:19] <fatejudger> I'm pissed at not having 600 more dollars
[07:19] <fatejudger> I'm pissed at my friend
[07:19] <fatejudger> and I'm pissed at my Xbox 360
[07:19] <fatejudger> for reminding me of the money I could have made
[07:19] <Insomniac-> lesson learned
[07:19] <Insomniac-> (:
[07:19] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: why didn't you get an Xbox 360 and sell it?
[07:19] <rev> EauTisse: well, does the nic work?
[07:19] <EauTisse> something wrong with the Xbox 360 ?
[07:20] <Insomniac-> i'm not in the usa
[07:20] <Insomniac-> and i don't care about the xbox
[07:20] <DsM> anyone here familure with ndiswrapper?
[07:20] <EauTisse> rev: yes, everything seems ok ....
[07:20] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: that sucks
[07:20] <Insomniac-> no i like it here (:
[07:20] <fatejudger> EauTisse: it could have made me 600 dollars
[07:20] <fatejudger> EauTisse: that's what's wrong with it
[07:20] <rev> EauTisse: so wheres so problem? ;D
[07:20] <EauTisse> rev: I'm just concerned that maybe something actually is very wrong under the hood
[07:20] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: where do you live?
[07:20] <Insomniac-> netherlands
[07:20] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: eww, socialism
[07:20] <EauTisse> rev: paranoid, I guess
[07:20] <EauTisse> rev: also, it could explain performance issues
[07:20] <Insomniac-> at least we *have* healthcare
[07:20] <Insomniac-> (:
[07:21] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: yeah, and pay about twice as much for it
[07:21] <EauTisse> rev: (imagine, if the card inteerupts on two IRQs instead of one)
[07:21] <Insomniac-> service costs money
[07:21] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: government wastes it
[07:21] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: look at Canada, you'll be like them soon
[07:21] <DsM> im having a problem with my wlan0.... installed ndiswrapper-utils and installed the driver... modprobed it.. and it is present and correct driver
[07:21] <Insomniac-> better to waste it on healthcare than on wars
[07:21] <Insomniac-> (:
[07:21] <DsM> when i try to enable it in KDE it doesnt work
[07:21] <DsM> anyone have any ideas?
[07:22] <DsM> it doesnt error or anything.... just says enabled... the nclicks right bakc to disabled
[07:22] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: would have costed less for the war if we weren't such pussies
[07:22] <EauTisse> DsM: heh, same problem here, I'm curious to see what will come out of your request for help
[07:23] <DsM> EauTisse: you are having the same issue eh?
[07:23] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: my friend, who was with me during the Xbox 360 console release
[07:23] <DsM> there has to be a step we are missing
[07:23] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: he just told me his Xbox was messed up
[07:23] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: it has a big crack in the faceplate
[07:23] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: and the USB plate
[07:23] <EauTisse> DsM: well something like that ... I can enable the wlan0 but then never select it as default gateway
[07:24] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: he's getting it fixed via overnight shipping
[07:24] <Insomniac-> fatejudger: sucks
[07:24] <rev> EauTisse: what happens if you load it with irq=11?
[07:24] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: yeah, tell me about it, I should open up mine
[07:24] <fatejudger> Insomniac-: or check ebay.com ...
[07:24] <EauTisse> rev: well, the jumpers on the ISA card don't let me select IRQ 11
[07:25] <EauTisse> rev: and that's where it's all made a bit complex ... the card has jumpers to select between a forced IRQ or one discovered through PnP
[07:26] <_snake> hey how do you restart the xconsole or whatever its called?
[07:26] <_snake> know hwat im talking about anyone?
[07:26] <EauTisse> Rev: I have the feeling that the jumpers are declaring 10 then PnP in the OS loading allocates 11 as well !
[07:27] <_snake> it shuts down the GUI and brings you back to the log in screen w/o retarting your whole PC
[07:27] <EauTisse> rev: and if I try to use the jumper setting that says "let PnP do its thing" ... then the card is not recognised
[07:28] <EauTisse> rev: I've tried all sorts of combinations :-(
[07:28] <rev> hm
[07:29] <EauTisse> rev: I remember a long time ago on Mandrake there was this toolkit for doing PnP on ISA slots (my situation) .... is there something similar on Ubuntu ?
[07:29] <EauTisse> pnptools ?
[07:32] <rev> I do not find anything related to isa pnp in ubuntu repositories
[07:32] <rev> http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/
[07:32] <rev> ;)
[07:33] <EauTisse> rev: heh, good ol' google, no ?
[07:34] <Hattori> !wifi
[07:34] <Hattori> ?wifi
[07:34] <rev> I knew there was a tool called isapnp.... I last used it more than 4 years ago though
[07:34] <stefano> guys how can i use "cat" to output a specific line from a file?
[07:34] <EauTisse> rev: same here, on that Mandrake distro
[07:35] <EauTisse> rev: thanks for the sympathetic ear !
[07:35] <EauTisse> I'll go look at athat
[07:35] <stefano> anyone?
[07:35] <swaroop> stefano: use `sed -n` or `cat file | head -n | tail -1`. Substitute `n` appropriately
[07:36] <stefano> thank you man
[07:36] <swaroop> stefano: welcome
[07:36] <_snake> wtf man did i miss something on setting up MP3s??
[07:37] <_snake> !mp3
[07:37] <Glin|Jol> Winamp 5.11 paused
[07:37] <DJ_Mer_> _snake: you are always a step behind foo
[07:37] <_snake> like I did the gstreamer thing
[07:37] <_snake> but it still wont work
[07:37] <stefano> another question: how can i find out how many lines there are in a specific file?
[07:39] <rev> cat <file>| wc -l
[07:39] <stefano> lotsa thx :)
[07:41] <Snake__> !mp3
[07:41] <Glin|Jol> Winamp 5.11 paused
[07:41] <Snake__> Damn it!
[07:42] <Hattori> if it says: can't find kernel sources in /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/build
[07:42] <Hattori> how can i fix it without internet access?
[07:43] <rev> Snake__: install xmms and be happy ;D
[07:43] <Snake__> Does xmms come with it?
[07:43] <Snake__> Cuz I love xmms
[07:43] <Snake__> lol
[07:43] <Snake__> (on knoppix I did anyway)
[07:44] <Hattori> if it says: can't find kernel sources in /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/build
[07:44] <Hattori> how can i fix it without internet access?
[07:44] <glitch> If you like xmms, try beep-media-player
[07:45] <glitch> "bmp"
[07:45] <glitch> it's basically an updated fork of XMMS
[07:45] <hrfurra> Whee, now my printer works. Just disable the "only listen to localhost" and it works fine. :-)
[07:46] <Snake__> ok
[07:46] <stefano> how can i express "LIMIT=cat /usr/local/bin/crack | wc - l" the right way?
[07:46] <stefano> (in /bin/sh)
[07:47] <rev> LIMIT=`cat /usr/local/bin/crack | wc -l`  (just a guess :D)
[07:47] <stefano> are these apostrophs or accents?
[07:47] <rev> accents
[07:47] <stefano> mkay thanks
[07:47] <stefano> i'll give it a try :)
[07:48] <Hattori> if it says: can't find kernel sources in /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/build
[07:48] <Hattori> how can i fix it without internet access?
[07:48] <Snake__> Can anyone tell me how I can excecute a couple of commands on start up?
[07:49] <bam_> where is the "templates" located for creating new doc's on desktop
[07:49] <glitch> Snake__: startup of the computer, or of KDE?
[07:49] <odin> How do you make a beep from the console?
[07:49] <Snake__> KDE I guess....
[07:49] <hrfurra> Snake__: Write a script and put it in /etc/init.d/yourscript then symlink /etc/rc.X/SXXyourscript to /etc/init.d/yourscript. The X's are numbers.
[07:49] <Hattori> is my question stupid or u're just ignoring me for fun?
[07:50] <hrfurra> The rc.X script is the runlevel you want to run it in, the SXX is when in the boot-order.
[07:50] <Snake__> I just want to set it to disable my eth0 and activate my wlan0
[07:50] <bam_> you can do that in network settings
[07:50] <rev> Hattori: who is "it" in it says?
[07:50] <Snake__> and have it connect to my server?
[07:50] <Hattori> ndiswrapper "make" command
[07:51] <Snake__> router**
[07:51] <rev> I think you need the kernel-header package
[07:51] <Hattori> how to install it without internet?
[07:51] <bam_> yes
[07:52] <rev> I don't know whether its on cd or not
[07:52] <glitch> Snake__: setting up a startup script isn't hard
[07:52] <bam_> admin mode
[07:52] <glitch> but it takes a few steps
[07:52] <Hattori> can u give me the first line of your source.list?
[07:52] <Snake__> glitch can I PM you?
[07:52] <Hattori> the cd one
[07:52] <glitch> Snake__: sure
[07:53] <rev> deb cdrom:[Kubuntu 6.04 _Dapper Drake_ - Alpha i386 (20051214)] / dapper main restricted
[07:53] <rev> this one if for dapper though ;P
[07:53] <Hattori> ah
[07:53] <Hattori> need breezy one
[07:53] <Chousuke> apt-setup :p
[07:54] <Chousuke> if you want to add cds to your sources, that is
[07:54] <bam_> snake, just goto network settings
[07:54] <bam_> my wifi autoconnects everytime I start my laptop
[07:55] <yikes> how do format external usb hd to reiserfs
[07:55] <bam_> if my network isnt there it disable the card
[07:56] <rev> yikes: mkreiserfs /dev/sda1 i.e. (again just a guess heh...)
[07:56] <yikes> rev: lol thanks i will try
[07:58] <yikes> rev: it worked ! thanks
[07:59] <glitch> if you need to run a sudo'ed command at startup
[07:59] <glitch> you can't put it in an /etc/inid.d/ script right?
[07:59] <glitch> I'm a fedora core guy, so I'd assume those scripts run as root
[07:59] <glitch> but I'm not sure exactly how that works when "there is no root"
[08:00] <rev> there is a root...only user login isn'nt permitted
[08:00] <glitch> ahh
[08:01] <glitch> so those init.d scripts run as root, and you don't need to sudo your commands in the scripts?
[08:01] <rev> and this can easy be changed when you do "sudo passwd"
[08:01] <rev> glitch: yes i think so
[08:04] <rjm101> Hello to the room
[08:09] <glitch> okay
[08:09] <glitch> I know this is a little offtopic

[08:23] <swaroop> fatdave: http://kubuntu101.blogspot.com/2005/11/linux-gaming-part-4-installing-nvidia.html
[08:23] <callie> i had to fatdave
[08:23] <fatdave> thank you guys :)
[08:23] <callie> it was straight forward though, did it through adept
[08:23] <glitch> Snake__: lol - you know, I've never tried
[08:23] <Snake__> glitch: damn
[08:23] <Snake__> Its so ugly...I must put this skin on it!
[08:24] <callie> or if you use gnome fatdave  you can use synaptic
[08:24] <glitch> Snake__: I imagine you'd just download them to ~/.bmp/Skins/
[08:24] <Snake__> glitch:  where do program files install to?!
[08:25] <glitch> Snake__: when program files install, you usually get a "configuration and data" directory under your home dir that begins with a "." like .gaim .bmp etc...
[08:25] <Snake__> hmm I didntget anything like that..
[08:25] <glitch> Snake__:
[08:26] <glitch> Snake__: try this - cd to your home dir (~) then cd to .bmp
[08:26] <Snake__> That all worked
[08:26] <glitch> cool
[08:26] <Snake__> im in the skin dir, but I dont understand why would the files install hidden??
[08:27] <Snake__> (yay it works)
[08:27] <Snake__> lol
[08:27] <glitch> Snake__: application data folders generally begin with a "." which hides them from normal system stuff so that it doesn't all "clog up" your home dir
[08:27] <z0idberg> Is there any news on gstreamer 0.10 for Breezy?
[08:27] <glitch> Snake__: but all the files are really in your home dir, so when you back that up, you get everything, including the config of all your favorite progs
[08:27] <Snake__> glitch:  thats fine, but I dont understand...how would I get into the files then, if im not getting a .<whatever> on the page
[08:28] <Snake__> I dont see any .<whatevers>
[08:29] <glitch> ls -lA will show you everything, including hidden dirs
[08:29] <Snake__> ALright
[08:29] <Snake__> Thanks
[08:29] <Snake__> thats all I need :
[08:32] <Snake__> man linux is godly
[08:34] <callie> all it needs is some better game support
[08:34] <callie> i'd be sold then
[08:34] <Snake__> ya
[08:34] <glitch> its funny
[08:34] <glitch> theres some good linux games
[08:34] <Snake__> Better game support, and easier wireless/video card install
[08:34] <glitch> but they just don't get much press
[08:34] <callie> there are some great games
[08:34] <Snake__> thats all I ask for
[08:34] <callie> but i mean from the commercial sector
[08:35] <Snake__> UT04
[08:35] <glitch> wifi is getting better - it used to be a nightmare
[08:35] <Snake__> I know glitch, im not a total n00b, I tried on...what was that OS Called...
[08:35] <callie> i just wish that it wasnt just limited to 2 or 3 software houses
[08:35] <Snake__> the one before hoary
[08:35] <rev> all I need is scummvm and good old scumm games :] 
[08:35] <glitch> breezy
[08:35] <glitch> lol scummvm is awesome
[08:36] <callie> summvm?
[08:36] <callie> thats a mouthfull
[08:36] <callie> lol
[08:36] <Snake__> no glitch the OS before hoary
[08:36] <callie> if only battlefield 2 was on linux
[08:36] <rev> warty?
[08:36] <glitch> ahh
[08:36] <glitch> lol
[08:36] <Snake__> ahhh yes thats it
[08:36] <Snake__> God...
[08:36] <callie> might try americas army on linux though
[08:36] <Snake__> I wanted to kill myself with that Wifi
[08:36] <Snake__> AA is cool on linux, but I couldn't get the sound to work
[08:37] <callie> damn
[08:37] <callie> what card you got Snake__ ?
[08:37] <glitch> http://scummvm.sourceforge.net./
[08:37] <Snake__> sound?
[08:37] <Snake__> Or video?
[08:37] <callie> sound
[08:37] <Snake__> Integrated
[08:37] <Snake__> AC 97
[08:37] <Snake__> Junk :)
[08:38] <callie> yeah, but well supported junk
[08:38] <Snake__> Indeed
[08:38] <z0idberg> if all games were developed in opengl, porting them to linux wouldn't be that hard... and i agree on the drivers, especially ati.
[08:38] <callie> my M audio delta 44 on the other hand is not so easily installed
[08:38] <Snake__> Ya and I got a 9600 all in wonder
[08:38] <Snake__> that was a bitch.
[08:38] <rev> ati drivers..well..is it possible to get hardware acceleration with 2.6.15 kernel?
[08:39] <callie> Nvidia install was very simple in kubuntu
[08:39] <callie> not like it used to be at all
[08:39] <Snake__> nvidia supports linux now lol
[08:39] <Snake__> I dont understand what is so hard about writing one more driver for linux
[08:40] <Snake__> is it really that complex??
[08:40] <glitch> binary drivers still frighten me
[08:40] <callie> the finer points are a little beyond me
[08:40] <glitch> I'm happy with my crappy old ati card and the open source drivers
[08:40] <callie> all i  know is that it works well
[08:40] <glitch> there's nothing that hard about it for the companies, but open sourcing the drivers would "expose trade secrets" in their eyes
[08:40] <Snake__> I got kubuntu on my laptop now, windows crashed and deleted all my stuff, that was the last straw
[08:40] <Snake__> lol
[08:41] <z0idberg> well, lets hope things change for the better with x.org 7.0
[08:41] <callie> i know its blasphemous but i wish MSN messenger was better supported
[08:41] <glitch> so they develop and compile them themselves, and inevitably screw things up a bit
[08:41] <Snake__> lol
[08:41] <fatdave> ok.  i think I installed the nvidia drivers, but now I can't go to a 1440x900 resolution
[08:42] <rev> I don't get ati drivers to work with 2.6.15...and I cannot change the card since its a notebook
[08:42] <glitch> be sure that you have the right modeline settings for that res in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:42] <glitch> heh
[08:42] <fatdave> well, i see its trying to use it, but i'm not sure if there are modelines in there.  how do i figure out what the modeline is ?
[08:42] <glitch> speaking as someone running in 1680 x 1050, I don't particualrly miss those days :)
[08:42] <Snake__> now its 400000000x20000000
[08:43] <rev> Im running 1680x1050 too, HP notebook ;D
[08:43] <callie> anything less than 1600x1200 isnt worth it
[08:43] <Snake__> Well my little 15" crt moniter cant support that so go to hell :)
[08:43] <callie> lol
[08:43] <glitch> I had a little trouble finding the modeline for my new monitor
[08:43] <glitch> had to google
[08:43] <callie> i just got a 19" trinitron for 22
[08:43] <glitch> I wrote up the results here:
[08:43] <glitch> http://www.glitchnyc.com/static/technology/gadgets/DellFP2.phblox
[08:44] <callie> before i had a 14"
[08:44] <Snake__> callie, is it LCD??
[08:44] <callie> CRT
[08:44] <callie> lcd is wack
[08:44] <glitch> that's a strange res for a CRT
[08:44] <callie> really glitch ? why?
[08:45] <glitch> Those monitors do many resolutions well, so sticking with a standard (esp one that gets you more veritcal pixels) makes sense
[08:45] <glitch> LCD's lock you into their "native res"
[08:45] <z0idberg> nowadays, a lot of people seem to think 1280x1024 is 4:3 ratio :/
[08:45] <glitch> and don't really look good above or below that res
[08:46] <Snake__> Is there any way to change the little "K" in the corner?
[08:46] <tvon|Desk> random Q from someone who hasn't used kde in a while... is there much (or anything) on the QT/KDE + Mono front?
[08:46] <callie> Snake__: run control centre
[08:46] <callie> i think you can change it from there
[08:47] <Snake__> uhh command not found?
[08:47] <glitch> every time someone mentions mono I want to scream "nooo, turn back, it's a M$ patent trap!"
[08:47] <tvon|Desk> glitch: heh
[08:47] <z0idberg> glitch: well, why don't you :)?
[08:47] <callie> Snake__: no thats not the command, kcontrol is i think
[08:47] <Snake__> oh lol roger that
[08:47] <callie> soz, should have said that i guess
[08:47] <Snake__> OOOooo pretty stuff to break!!
[08:48] <callie> :DDDDD
[08:48] <callie> enjoy, as you can see you can configure alot from there
[08:48] <Snake__> What moron made the "redmond" splash screen....
[08:49] <callie> lol
[08:49] <callie> well, redmond is supposed to be a windows rip off i think
[08:49] <Snake__> It is
[08:49] <Snake__> lol
[08:49] <Snake__> thats why I asked
[08:49] <callie> good for converting the non believers!!!!
[08:49] <callie> mwuahahahahahaaaa
[08:49] <Snake__> Meh
[08:50] <callie> although i find the plank with a nail through it works just fine too
[08:50] <glitch> gotta run - ttys, fatdave, good luck with the monitor
[08:50] <Snake__> cya
[08:50] <callie> ciao
[08:51] <callie> so fatdave, how's it going with that?
[08:52] <callie> ScummVM looks pretty nifty actually
[08:53] <callie> brb
[08:55] <Snake__> callie: thisis odd
[08:55] <callie> wassup?
[08:55] <Snake__> I cant change it
[08:55] <callie> howcome?
[08:55] <Snake__> I dont see any option to
[08:56] <callie> hmmmmmmm, i wasnt sure if there was one, but if there is it would be there i think
[08:56] <Snake__> "Linux: Set up your PC how YOU want it!"
[08:56] <Snake__> ...
[08:57] <Snake__> "KDE: Na...the K stays there"
[08:58] <rev> lol
[08:58] <DsM> ok im having issues with my wlan0
[08:58] <Snake__> Hey I might be of help!
[08:58] <Snake__> lol
[08:58] <Knowerrors> To anyone running kde 3.5, I have a question...
[08:58] <Snake__> DsM whats up?
[08:59] <dclindsay> fire away
[08:59] <DsM> ok i have correctly installed ndiswrapper and my drivers
[08:59] <Snake__> ok
[08:59] <jahshua> adept tells me that i have irssi installed, but i cant find it when i search for it, any tips ?
[08:59] <DsM> hardware is present... but when i enable wlan0 in the GUI in KDE it enables for like 1/2 second then goes back to disabled
[09:00] <Knowerrors> Im in the process of upgrading to kde 3.5, and it asks whether to use the new version of kdmrc or keep my old one, what should I do?
[09:00] <Snake__> Mmmm sorry dsm, not sure
[09:00] <DsM> i did everything the same as when i get it to work just fine in gnome
[09:00] <dclindsay> kdm is the login manager
[09:00] <callie> jahshua: /usr/bin/irssi
[09:00] <DsM> i cannot find even a log where it would tell me whats up
[09:00] <dclindsay> it's probably safe to use the new rc file for it
[09:00] <Snake__> I believe the log is in your home directory
[09:00] <Snake__> Thats where mine goes
[09:01] <Snake__> Mines called wireless.log
[09:01] <DsM> nope not there
[09:01] <Snake__> hmm
[09:01] <dclindsay> Knowerrors: have you done anything unusual with your window manager sessions files?
[09:02] <callie> find it jahshua ?
[09:02] <Snake__> Ya I dunno, i'm still a n00b, but after a day and a half of ndiswrapper, I know that pretty well
[09:02] <Knowerrors> dclindsay: don't think so... like what?
[09:02] <Snake__> sorry I cant help more
[09:02] <jahshua> one min :)
[09:02] <DsM> iwconfig shows it connected to my wireless network
[09:02] <Snake__> !kde3.5
[09:02] <jahshua> on the phone
[09:03] <callie> thats why you cant find it then, learn to multi task
[09:03] <callie> :P
[09:03] <Snake__> DsM:  i dont know, sorry I cant be of more service
[09:03] <dclindsay> Knowerrors: kdm is the login manager, the screen that comes up after you boot and before you go into kde, you generally have two choices of dm, or Display Manager, kdm, the kde version, and gdm, the gnome version
[09:04] <Knowerrors> dclindsay: yeah, I know what kdm is, just don't know what you mean by doing something unusual to the wm session files ;)
[09:04] <Snake__> well here we go...into kde 3.5
[09:04] <rev> DsM: I had problem with the network settings GUI in KDE too, but with my cable lan...I edited /etc/network/interfaces manually ...and now it works fine
[09:04] <Snake__> I gope I dont screw this up
[09:04] <dclindsay> Knowerrors: oh
[09:04] <Knowerrors> its cool though, I said to use the new kdmrc file
[09:04] <Snake__> is 3.5 stable enough for a n00b?
[09:04] <Knowerrors> gonna restart my kde session now to see how it went up to 3.5
[09:04] <goldbrick> I'm using 3.5
[09:04] <callie> it is for me Snake__
[09:04] <Knowerrors> brb...
[09:04] <goldbrick> Just fine
[09:05] <Snake__> okay
[09:05] <Snake__> is it better than 3.4?
[09:05] <callie> very stable from what i can see
[09:05] <Snake__> lol
[09:05] <Knowerrors> Snake__: theres a couple issues doing the upgrade that you gotta know
[09:05] <callie> have a look at the changelogs Snake__
[09:05] <Knowerrors> but its much faster than 3.4
[09:05] <goldbrick> Okay, quick question.  I already have linux installed, is it too late to add on WinXP and do the multiboot thing
[09:05] <Snake__> well if theres issues...I dont think I want to deal with it
[09:05] <Snake__> :)
[09:05] <dclindsay> Knowerrors: shrug, some of the wm sessions need editing, like enlightenment, if you've done something unusual, you might need to make an adjustment, but i assume you didnt, so it should be fine
[09:06] <callie> not if you back up your boot manager goldbrick
[09:06] <goldbrick> callie: I have no idea how to do that :-/
[09:06] <Knowerrors> and has better integration of superkaramba, kde also has options window that pops up like WinXP that asks what you want to do when you plug in a usb drive or put in a cd
[09:06] <seaLne> anyone seen kmail behaving like this: http://stuff.duffus.org/tmp/kmail.png not showing signed or encrypted mails?  i don't think its a missing package thing as i have the same packages at work as at home and its fine there
[09:06] <Snake__> thats sweet
[09:06] <Snake__> Knowerrors: what do I need to know before upgrade??
[09:06] <callie> goldbrick: what do you use ?
[09:06] <dclindsay> Knowerrors: personally, i use kde with gdm
[09:07] <Knowerrors> dclindsay: nope... installed WM, fluxbox, and Mezzo/Symphony
[09:07] <Knowerrors> not Enlightenment
[09:07] <goldbrick> I think I'm using GRUB
[09:07] <dclindsay> Knowerrors: gdm looks better and is more functional, imo
[09:07] <callie> goldbrick: cool
[09:08] <callie> hang on one sec
[09:08] <goldbrick> callie: Could you suggest some google phrases to help figure out how to modify partions etc..
[09:08] <dclindsay> under debian, e16 and e17 somehow dont make it into the session list, not sure under kubuntu, iv only been running it a couple days yet
[09:08] <dclindsay> looks nice though
[09:09] <Knowerrors> Snake__: unintstall metabar and ivman, make sure youve followed the instructions on the kubuntu site...
[09:09] <Snake__> Im looking for instructions
[09:09] <Snake__> I cant find any
[09:09] <Knowerrors> Snake__: its on the kubuntu home page
[09:09] <dclindsay> goldbrick: use gparted
[09:10] <Snake__> oh I got that much
[09:10] <callie> goldbrick: http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2005/11/how-to-repair-corrupt-mbr-and-boot.html
[09:10] <Snake__> I thought there was something else
[09:10] <Knowerrors> http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php
[09:10] <Snake__> ja
[09:10] <callie> what are you wanting to do with partitions exactly?
[09:10] <dclindsay> goldbrick: he wants to make an XP partition and install XP
[09:10] <Snake__> Knowerrors: how do I know which prog to uninstall and stuff??
[09:11] <Knowerrors> Snake__: then search by version number for 4:3.5.0-0ubuntu0breezy1, and check all that are available for upgrade
[09:11] <dclindsay> goldbrick: sorry, that was for callie
[09:11] <goldbrick> Yeah
[09:11] <callie> i know that
[09:11] <Snake__> ><
[09:11] <Snake__> This is confusing
[09:11] <Snake__> lol
[09:11] <callie> but from free space or old partitions or a new drive ?
[09:12] <dclindsay> does the live cd have a recue mode that allows you to reinstall grub?
[09:12] <Snake__> meh 3.5s not worth all this
[09:12] <goldbrick> I'm going to need to repartion
[09:12] <djk_> dclindsay: you can reinstall grub with your install-cd
[09:12] <goldbrick> I don't think there's any free unpartitioned space
[09:12] <dclindsay> there is also a a boot up manager that's pretty good
[09:12] <goldbrick> I still have the Kubuntu DVD
[09:13] <Knowerrors> Snake__: hehe, just wait a few more months for Dapper then, which will have kde 3.5
[09:13] <Snake__> Thats what im gonna do
[09:13] <jahshua> can  someone helpme to set ident in kubuntu for x chat
[09:13] <Knowerrors> btw, I use Synaptic for package management, not Adept (which can't search by version number)
[09:13] <jahshua> is it pidentd ?
[09:13] <Snake__> Hey when dappers out...I can like...upgrade without uninstalling and reinstalling right??
[09:14] <dclindsay> you can chroot from the DVD and dpkg-reconfigure grub, then
[09:14] <dclindsay> after you've installed XP
[09:14] <Knowerrors> Snake__: yeah, just use the cd as source if youre on dialup, or if on broadband you just upgrade from the repos
[09:14] <Snake__> Joy
[09:14] <goldbrick> that's because XP will nuke GRUB from mbr right?
[09:14] <dclindsay> yes
[09:14] <dclindsay> it will
[09:15] <goldbrick> Will grub be able to detect the two OS'es ?
[09:15] <callie> yes
[09:15] <goldbrick> phew, That is nice
[09:15] <callie> it does it automatically
[09:15] <dclindsay> boot from the DVD after XP install, chroot to your hard drive and dpkg-reconfigure grub
[09:15] <goldbrick> because I would have no clue how to do it manually
[09:15] <Knowerrors> Snake__: if you want 3.5, just follow the website instuctions, then search for kde and check everything thats upgradeable, pretty easy and stable
[09:15] <goldbrick> Okay, on the install prompt that the DVD gives me
[09:15] <callie> grub-install /dev/hda would work too
[09:16] <jahshua> can  someone tell me how to set ident in kubuntu for x chat
[09:16] <Knowerrors> in Adept
[09:16] <goldbrick> What do I do from there
[09:16] <callie> it should be automatic, it just re instates itself
[09:16] <callie> finds other operating systems etc
[09:16] <callie> then reboot and voila
[09:17] <goldbrick> chroot to my HD
[09:17] <dclindsay> actually goldbrick
[09:17] <callie> i only did it a week ago, was quite simple as i remember
[09:17] <dclindsay> callie's method is a little better
[09:17] <goldbrick> because the DVD gives me an install prompt and I don't want to reinstall
[09:17] <dclindsay> boot the live mode
[09:17] <dclindsay> so it runs from the dvd
[09:17] <goldbrick> Ahh
[09:17] <goldbrick> k
[09:17] <dclindsay> open a terminal
[09:17] <dclindsay> etc
[09:18] <dclindsay> with callie's method you dont have to chroot
[09:18] <callie> actually you would
[09:18] <goldbrick> so do the live mode deal, then do grub-install /dev/hda
[09:18] <callie> either way
[09:19] <goldbrick> okay, next question
[09:19] <callie> you still need to mount the old linuc partition and have read/write access
[09:19] <callie> *linux
[09:19] <goldbrick> How do I do that :-o
[09:19] <dclindsay> oh, ok, then chroot to the harddrive, then run grub-install /dev/hda
[09:19] <dclindsay> mkdir /mnt/something unique
[09:19] <dclindsay> mkdir /mnt/something_unique
[09:20] <AudioMove> i just installed shorewall, but all the files aint in /etc/shorewall/, this happened before, i know their somewhere else just cant find the directory to copy them over, anyone know the path?
[09:20] <callie> goldbrick: did you check http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2005/11/how-to-repair-corrupt-mbr-and-boot.html its explains it very clearly and simply
[09:20] <dclindsay> chroot /mnt/something_unique
[09:21] <dclindsay> grub-install /dev/hda
[09:21] <callie> brb, gonna grab a cuppa
[09:22] <anth0ny> I am experiencing problems with network-connectiviy right after installing 5.10
[09:22] <anth0ny> any ideas
[09:23] <anth0ny> I used the integrated "KDE Network Admin tool"
[09:23] <goldbrick> okie dokie
[09:23] <dclindsay> is your eth0 up?
[09:23] <dclindsay> or ppp0?
[09:23] <anth0ny> It was first time booting the machine
[09:23] <anth0ny> but after I changes the IP to static
[09:24] <anth0ny> all interfaces remains down
[09:24] <anth0ny> And the interfaces seems to be greyed out
[09:24] <jahshua> can  someone tell me how to set ident in kubuntu for x chat
[09:24] <dclindsay> anth0ny: open up koqueror
[09:25] <anth0ny> even when I entered admin-mode
[09:25] <anth0ny> koqueror?
[09:25] <anth0ny> what can it do?
[09:25] <goldbrick> The kernel is unable to re-read the partitiontables on the following devices:
[09:25] <goldbrick> - /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-root
[09:25] <goldbrick> My last question is this. I've got gparted open and it's throwing this error
[09:27] <rev> anth0ny: I had the same problem, I edited /etc/network/interfaces manually
[09:28] <goldbrick> I think it's because I used LVM when installing Kubuntu
[09:29] <anth0ny> rev: okay, I will try that
[09:29] <anth0ny> thx
[09:31] <Snake__> what prog can play videos out of the box?
[09:32] <rev> uhm...vlc
[09:33] <rev> if you mean without codec install
[09:33] <Snake__> where can I get codec?

[09:36] <Hattori> hwo can i set dns server on /etc/netwroks/interfaces ?
[09:36] <Hattori> cause i'm able to ping with wlan0
[09:36] <Hattori> but can't browse
[09:36] <Hattori> maybe it's just a DNS server problem
[09:36] <Hattori> anybody know?

[09:39] <jahshua> i tried it and it say package not found
[09:39] <callie> sqrek: try apt-get clean

[09:40] <Hattori> rev: if the file doesn't exist, i should create it?
[09:40] <bulio> can I install kubuntu, without the need to-insall?
[09:40] <rev> uhm...it should exist
[09:40] <Hattori> didn't =\
[09:40] <jahshua> how can i get it
[09:41] <rev> Hattori: /etc/resolv.conf ....really not existing?
[09:41] <Hattori> no

[09:42] <Hattori> search local too?
[09:42] <rev> yes
[09:42] <Hattori> impossible to connect to www.google.com
[09:42] <Hattori> that's what konqueror says
[09:42] <Hattori> should i reboot?
[09:43] <callie> jahshua: try sudo apt-cache search pidentd
[09:43] <occy> heh
[09:43] <callie> jahshua: it should be there though
[09:43] <rev> Hattori: should work on the fly ...:/

[09:44] <dclindsay> sorry, irrational neighbor just threw a shit fit
[09:45] <Hattori> yep
[09:45] <rev> hmm
[09:45] <jahshua> haha
[09:45] <Hattori> anyway, i tried to ping a network address
[09:45] <Hattori> it says:

[09:46] <dclindsay> oh
[09:46] <dclindsay> duh
[09:46] <dclindsay> you have to be root

[09:47] <dclindsay> sudo Konqueror
[09:47] <occy> how can I get amaroK to play mp3's?
[09:47] <chris> hi peeps anyone know where i can get the kernel source (2.6.12-9-386) for ubuntu (breezy badger)
[09:47] <occy> !mp3
[09:48] <Glin|Jol> Winamp 5.11 paused
[09:50] <callie> dont you hate it when you try to help someone and they ignore you?
[09:52] <Hattori> gateway is correct
[09:52] <callie> lol
[09:52] <Hattori> dns is the gateway
[09:52] <Hattori> wlan0 is active
[09:52] <Hattori> what's wrong =\
[09:53] <rev> you use the same subnetmask as your gateway?
[09:53] <rev> *like
[09:53] <Hattori> example?
[09:53] <Hattori> 192.168.2.4 is the ip of the wlan0
[09:53] <rev> 255.255.255.0
[09:54] <Hattori> ya, that is
[09:54] <chris> hi peeps anyone know where i can get the kernel source (2.6.12-9-386) for ubuntu (breezy badger)
[09:54] <seth_k|lappy> just apt-get it, chris
[09:55] <callie> chris: sudo apt-cache search kernel-source-2.6.12
[09:55] <Hattori> what's broadcast?
[09:55] <Hattori> should be set as gateway ?
[09:55] <seth_k|lappy> chris, callie, linux-source-2.6.12, not kernel-source-2.6.12
[09:55] <callie> oh yeah
[09:55] <callie> ooops
[09:55] <rev> broadcast isn't what you are looking for
[09:56] <callie> what seth_k|lappy  said chris
[09:56] <Hattori> how should broadcast be set?
[09:56] <rev> you have to make sure that: both boxes are on the same subnet (255.255.255.0 for example) and have an IP in that subnet 192.168.2.4 for wlan card and 192.168.2.1 for gateway for example
[09:58] <chris> thanks
[09:59] <Hattori> got it working
[09:59] <Hattori> removed broadcasting line
[09:59] <jahshua> hey when i look in my kde user management area there is a 'nobody' registered as user login with 65534 as uid ... whats that  ??

[10:01] <jahshua> please
[10:01] <occy> Download one of these for your choosen engine???
[10:01] <jahshua> really..
[10:01] <Hattori> sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install dist-upgrade ?
[10:02] <occy> I'm simply trying to get mp3's to play under amaroK

[10:06] <hamato> whazzup
[10:06] <swim> hey folks, (believe it or not I'm sort of new to kde, havent used it in something like 5 or 6 years) but in any case I'd like konqueror when being used as a file manager, to be smaller than a when it
[10:06] <swim> ;s used as a web browser
[10:07] <Insomniac-> set it up like you want it then save the profile
[10:08] <swim> Insomniac-: where just in konqueror settings ?
[10:08] <hamato> the other day i was like 'hey lets install kubuntu' and my computer was like 'k, thx' and I was like 'wtf this doesn't detect my screen and the 55 Hz really hurt my eyes'. so bye k.
[10:08] <Insomniac-> swim: settings -> save view profile
[10:08] <swim> thx Insomniac-
[10:10] <occy> hate to sound like a broken record but.... mp3 + amaroK anyone?
[10:10] <callie> occy:
[10:10] <callie> its easy
[10:11] <callie> search adept for amarok and get the extension
[10:11] <occy> ok
[10:11] <callie> i had the same problem :P
[10:11] <Hattori> i'm updating to 2.6.12.10
[10:11] <Hattori> how can i remove completely the 2.6.12.9 ?
[10:12] <occy> hmm
[10:12] <rev> apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.12.9  maybe
[10:12] <occy> callie: not seeing an "mp3" extention
[10:12] <occy> callie: I see "engines" xine and other junk.
[10:12] <occy> but no mention of mp3
[10:12] <Hattori> maybe or for sure? ;}
[10:12] <rev> I dont know how the package is called exactly
[10:13] <rev> apt-get --purge remove linux-image-$(uname -r)
[10:13] <seth_k|lappy> occy, which amarok engine are you using? there is no such thing as an "mp3 extension"
[10:14] <Hattori> and that remove the chance to load it at grub load?
[10:14] <occy> 1.3.1
[10:14] <Hattori> grub menu i mean
[10:14] <callie> libarts1-mpeglib perhaps occy
[10:14] <seth_k|lappy> occy, but which engine?
[10:14] <seth_k|lappy> occy, if you are using gstreamer (recommended), get the package 'gstreamer0.8-mad'
[10:14] <rev> Hattori: is automatically removed when you purge that package
[10:14] <Hattori> k thx
[10:15] <callie> when you get the error in amarok it actually suggests the file you need as i remember
[10:15] <rev> but install the new kernel first else you are doomed
[10:15] <Hattori> ya sure
[10:15] <swim> sorry to be kinda lame, but how do I add a side-bar to konqueror?
[10:15] <Hattori> upgrading atm
[10:18] <seth_k|lappy> swim, press F9
[10:18] <swim> sweet thx seth_k|lappy
[10:21] <occy> seth_k|lappy: gst-engine I'm guessing
[10:21] <occy> :/
[10:21] <occy> not very user friendly
[10:23] <seth_k|lappy> occy, so grab gstreamer0.8-mad
[10:23] <swim> hmm trying to use amarok for the first time on kubuntu, it wont play any of my files just skips them all... Im using amarok-xine...
[10:23] <occy> grabbing now
[10:24] <occy> swim: heh, having same problem.  apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad    apparently.
[10:24] <occy> swim: I'll report back in a sec.
[10:24] <swim> k thx
[10:25] <puckman> ello
[10:25] <puckman> Anyone installed the new beta release of Gaim yet?
[10:25] <occy> swim: that was it
[10:25] <occy> heh
[10:25] <occy> swim: do that, close amaroK
[10:25] <swim> hmm ok thx occy :)
[10:25] <occy> swim: and you should get the love
[10:25] <occy> swim: thank seth_k|lappy
[10:25] <seth_k|lappy> swim, if you're using amaroK-xine, don't install that
[10:25] <occy> swim: ;)
[10:25] <occy> seth_k|lappy: ;) thanks
[10:25] <seth_k|lappy> that's for amaroK-gStreamer
[10:26] <seth_k|lappy> amaroK-xine needs xmms-mp3 iirc
[10:26] <occy> k
[10:26] <occy> freaky stuff
[10:26] <swim> seth_k|lappy: oh ok thanks
[10:27] <seth_k|lappy> swim, er... actually ubuntu's xine should handle mp3 by default. What kind of files do you have?
[10:27] <occy> The KDE Way[tm] 
[10:27] <swim> seth_k|lappy: mainly mp3's actually
[10:28] <seth_k|lappy> xmms-mad, then... I guess :P
[10:28] <swim> neither do I seth_k|lappy
[10:29] <seth_k|lappy> xine is the backend for xmms, you're using amarok-xine
[10:29] <seth_k|lappy> personally I would switch to amarok-gstreamer, but that's just me :)
[10:29] <callie> i found the sound quality with gstreamer to be poor
[10:30] <swim> yah xine has allways been good to me
[10:30] <callie> thats what i'm using
[10:30] <Knowerrors> ditto
[10:31] <swim> callie, Knowerrors, amarok wont play my files, im using amarok-xine, do I need xmms-mad?
[10:31] <Knowerrors> no
[10:31] <swim> hmm its just skipping all my files... (first time playing amarok on kubuntu)
[10:31] <callie> it should work right off since xine has native support
[10:32] <callie> try the ubuntu help pages, thats how i fixed it
[10:32] <swim> ok thx
[10:32] <callie> http://amarok.kde.org/amarokwiki/index.php/MP3_on_Ubuntu_5.10
[10:33] <callie> try that swim
[10:33] <swim> oh thanks
[10:33] <seth_k|lappy> "Xine: download and install mad" *ahem*
[10:33] <seth_k|lappy> that's directly from that page
[10:33] <seth_k|lappy> hence you need xine-mad
[10:34] <swim> right I just read it
[10:34] <seth_k|lappy> which is what I said in the first place
[10:34] <Knowerrors> you don't need it :)
[10:35] <Knowerrors> Im playing mp3s w/o it
[10:35] <Knowerrors> on Kubuntu 5.10, Amarok-xine
[10:35] <swim> ah libmad0 I didnt have for somereason
[10:36] <seth_k|lappy> that'll do it too; xine-mad deps on libmad0, so either way you'll be good to go then
[10:37] <_nano_> could anyone manage to install k-blogger?
[10:39] <Knowerrors> swim: you can get by with just libmad0 , thats what I have
[10:39] <swim> Knowerrors: yah thats what I just got thanks
[10:39] <Knowerrors> you should install the w32codecs also to support all media
[10:40] <swim> yup got them :)
[10:40] <swim> im new to kubuntu and kde, but not linux
[10:41] <jahshua> how do i install ident in kubuntu ??
[10:43] <swim> is there anything one needs to do to make konqueror more compatible with websites? I've noticed it doesnt like Newegg.com
[10:43] <Insomniac-> what is gam_server and why is it taking 12% cpu and 160mb ram?
[10:43] <Knowerrors> swim: the kdemultimedia metapackage is good too...
[10:43] <swim> k thx Knowerrors
[10:44] <rev> jahshua: look for an identd with "apt-cache search identd" and install it?

[10:48] <EauTisse> aha /etc/rc3.d
[10:49] <_nano_> !qt
[10:49] <ubotflu> Qt is the Q-toolkit. Qt is to KDE what GTK is to GNOME. For the Qt includes, install the libqt3-mt-dev package
[10:51] <rev> EauTisse: don't you think that this tool is obsolete? the last release was...2001?
[10:51] <EauTisse> well maybe but it actually worked !
[10:51] <EauTisse> :-)
[10:52] <rev> cool :)
[10:52] <EauTisse> and it's the same network card that I was using back then !
[10:52] <EauTisse> and it kinda makes sense that the projcet died back then ... ISA became obsolete pretty much around that time
[10:52] <Knowerrors> swim: whats wrong with the page?  does it look fine in firefox/mozilla on kde?
[10:53] <rev> EauTisse: I though isapnp got integrated into the kernel or something like that
[10:54] <rev> well, good luck :) gonna go
[10:54] <EauTisse> rev: hm, interesting you should say that ... that would explain why I'm seeing the card utilise two IRQs
[10:55] <EauTisse> dang
[10:55] <EauTisse> thx anyway

[11:07] <dashinho> Hello... I have a weird problem with Firefox on Kubuntu (not quite sure if this happens on gnome to)... when I try to open a site with flash it freezes, I can't do anything so I have to kill it. I installed the flash plugin for mozilla but that didn't work. It also randomly freezes on any site after like 10 or 20 minutes of working. Any idea of what may be happening here?
[11:08] <troy> dashinho: amd64 by any chance?
[11:09] <dashinho> nope
[11:09] <dashinho> x86 5.10
[11:09] <dashinho> Firefox 1.0.7
[11:09] <troy> okay - I have no idea then -- was thinking it might be something amd64 specific as there are tons of flash problems there
[11:10] <dashinho> troy, what you use?
[11:10] <dashinho> konqueror?
[11:14] <ppetrisch> hi.. can someone plz give me the link where its explained how to install nvidia drivers on kubuntu?
[11:14] <djk_> !nvidia
[11:14] <ubotflu> nvidia is, like, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[11:14] <ppetrisch> ty
[11:14] <djk_> yw
[11:22] <troy> dashinho: yes, for everything
[11:22] <dashinho> troy, I am using it now. But I have a couple of extensions on Firefox that I love (heh)
[11:23] <troy> dashinho: are you using kde3.5 or the ones from breezy?
[11:23] <jahshua> hi can someone tell me hoe to get synaptic
[11:23] <jahshua> how
[11:23] <dashinho> alt-f2 synaptic
[11:24] <troy> dashinho: not if it isn't installed
[11:24] <dashinho> or kdemenu -> settings -> synaptic
[11:24] <dashinho> oh
[11:24] <Hobbsee> jahshua: sudo apt-get install synaptic
[11:24] <troy> jahshua: or use 'adept'
[11:24] <callie> jahshua: you're using kde though aren't you?
[11:25] <troy> Adept is the KDE package manager for ubuntu
[11:25] <jahshua> callie yes
[11:25] <jahshua> im trying to sort of my ident
[11:25] <callie> use adept then like troy said
[11:25] <jahshua> i was recommended to try synaptic
[11:25] <troy> they are functionally quite similar
[11:25] <callie> exactly
[11:26] <callie> synaptic is slightly more sophisticated in some ways as i remember but they both do the same job
[11:26] <troy> adept looks better in KDE, synaptic better in gnome - tis the real difference to me ...
[11:26] <jahshua> if i connect to irc without my shell i have a ~ before my whois
[11:27] <jahshua> i need to get rid of this
[11:27] <jahshua> its an ident issue
[11:27] <jahshua> im just not sure what to do
[11:27] <callie> me either
[11:28] <jahshua> my dns doesnt resolve i think
[11:28] <jahshua> if it resolves than there is no ~
[11:28] <troy> I don't see a ~ "[16:27]  [Whois]  jahshua is i=tao@64.125.158.11 (i left my wallet in el segundo)"
[11:28] <jahshua> ~ means the irc server couldnt get ident from you
[11:28] <jahshua> no
[11:29] <jahshua> this is mt shell
[11:29] <jahshua> my
[11:29] <emptystapler> I'm using Kubuntu Dapper Flight 2, and have a Radeon 9600XT. Will I get any significant 2d performance by using ATI's drivers?
[11:29] <jahshua> [22:26]  <nesta> if i connect to irc without my shell i have a ~ before my whois
[11:29] <sampan> jahshua  the ~ is an identd issue -- you need to have an identd server running and sending a valid response to identd requests (port 113) in order to remove it.
[11:29] <troy> jahshua: some irc clients have built in identd-equivalents, others don't -- not a huge deal IMHO
[11:29] <ppetrisch> i have small problem with my nvidia drivers on the laptop... installed worked well and i can see the nvidia logo on the startup.. the problem is it wont let me change the resolution to 1680x1050 .. any ideas how to fix that ?
[11:30] <callie> XF86config ppetrisch
[11:30] <jahshua> sampan is setting up an identd server difficult
[11:30] <callie> depending on what you're using ppetrisch
[11:31] <sampan> jahshua, i am not sure.  i haven't ever bothered to set one up.  i've read a couple tutorials on setting up pidentd on linux -- seems like it shouldn't be super-hard, but will involve command-line and text editing of config files
[11:31] <ppetrisch> what do u mean what im using? what system or drivers ?
[11:32] <troy> jahshua: you don't need it though - it just introduces another open port for no real reason
[11:32] <callie> or just manually edit your /etc/X11/Xorg.conf file ppetrisch
[11:32] <hugelmopf> ppetrisch: maybe try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" first
[11:33] <troy> ppetrisch: what hugelmopf said will probably work, but may require more knowledge of settings than you have
[11:33] <sampan> troy, it all depends on which nets he irc's on.  some nets, like undernet, almost require it (just a couple undernet servers will allow you to connect without a valid identd)
[11:33] <sampan> freenode doesn't care, but other nets do
[11:33] <sampan> or, rather, some other nets do
[11:33] <troy> sampan: what possible reason other than porn or warez does one have for being on undernet :P
[11:34] <sampan> troy, lol -- :X  lots of friends there after 12 years i guess ;/
[11:34] <troy> ah, okay :P
[11:35] <karvr> is it possible to download and install klamav for kubuntu/??
[11:36] <troy> clamav exists but not klamav -- possibly just lacking someone to make the package
[11:36] <karvr> ahhh ok thx
[11:37] <ppetrisch> ive edited the xorg.conf, the only resolution ive enabled is 1680x1050, anyway the current resolutoion is 1280x1024 , but i can set 1680x1050 if i use vesa drivers
[11:38] <troy> ppetrisch: maybe it's something specific to the nvidia drivers -- #nvidia might be the place to be
[11:38] <ppetrisch> ok ill ask them
[11:38] <troy> ppetrisch: also, try the ubuntu forums - they are usually better for hardware issues -- less noise than irc :)

[11:39] <ppetrisch> ok ty
[11:39] <AudioMove> shorewall version 2.2.5 is the only available version through apt, yet nolonger supported by shorewall. how to i upgrade to v3, through backports?
[11:41] <skizzay> ppetrisch:  Are you sure that your monitor and video card can handle those resolutions?
[11:43] <M_Cheevy> heya folks
[11:43] <ppetrisch> can anyone tell me what regparm is ?
[11:44] <callie> google?
[11:44] <callie> wikipedia?
[11:44] <ppetrisch> google didnt give me an answer :)
[11:45] <djk_> then you didn't ask nicely enough and santa won't bring you a present either..
[11:46] <ppetrisch> :P
[11:47] <callie> it decreases the size of the kernel and speeds it up a bit... apparently
[11:47] <ppetrisch> ty
[11:47] <callie> thats what google told me anyway 'what is regparm' :P
[11:47] <chx> After upgrading to KDE 3.5 I'd better restart KDE, right?
[11:47] <callie> not too harn now is it ppetrisch ?
[11:47] <chx> kio_http does not launch for example
[11:47] <callie> ;)
[11:48] <callie> chx: yeah restart x
[11:48] <chx> Is there a program which would save my ssh sessions?
[11:48] <chx> So I do not need to restart N of them
[11:48] <callie> i've never had to run more than one session at a time
[11:49] <chx> i mean, ssh clients
[11:50] <chx> i have a huge number of ssh processes running and it's serious nuisassance to restart them one by one
[11:50] <hyperactivecrond> i just apt-get dist-upgraded and now my kdm's broken...
[11:50] <callie> create a command for starting them all
[11:50] <hyperactivecrond> any ideas on how to fix it?
[11:50] <Hobbsee_away> hyperactivecrond: from what to what, and how's it broken?
[11:51] <callie> im no expert but i think you could alias a command for starting them chx
[11:51] <hyperactivecrond> Hobsee_away: i just ran sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and it installed automagically kdm and now kdm won't start
[11:51] <Hobbsee_away> sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[11:52] <Hobbsee_away> and you should learn to use tab completion :P - saves spelling errors
[11:52] <callie> lol
[11:52] <callie> people will use 12 character names
[11:52] <callie> :P
[11:53] <hyperactivecrond> Hobbsee_away, i tried just running sudo kdm and it just sat there with a blinking _ on vt 7... maybe i'll retry using the right way... brb
[11:53] <Hobbsee_away> callie: well, the ordinary one is only 7...
[11:53] <callie> just kidding hobzey a-way
[11:53] <jahshua> can someone please help me set up and identd server ?
[11:53] <Hobbsee_away> callie: its' a real pain for the people who have multiple cases, exclamation marks, and all that
[11:53] <hyperactivecrond> :P
[11:53] <hyperactivecrond> yes
[11:53] <Hobbsee_away> callie: if you dont spell it correctly, it doesnt flash, which probably means that i wont answer
[11:53] <hyperactivecrond> it workd
[11:54] <Hobbsee_away> hyperactivecrond: it worked?
[11:54] <Hobbsee_away> :D
[11:54] <callie> im well aware of that Hobbsee_away
[11:54] <Hobbsee_away> cool :)
[11:54] <hyperactivecrond> :o i guess maybe doing it w/o the initscript does not do it right
[11:54] <callie> i aint that much of a noob ya know!
[11:54] <callie> :D
[11:54] <Hobbsee_away> not sure - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt
[11:55] <Hobbsee_away> callie: i didnt recognise your nick, which isnt surprising, based on how many people there are over the 5 channels that i'm on - so i thought i'd play it safe
[11:55] <callie> thats cool
[11:56] <emptystapler> WTF is wih the Kubuntu System Settings panels? Most of them require administrative mode, but fail when I enter my root password
[11:56] <emptystapler> the live CD had no such prolems...
[11:56] <dashinho> is adept better than synaptic?
[11:56] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: it's a known bug, use alt+f2, kdesu system settings
[11:56] <jahshua> can someone please help me set up an identd server
[11:57] <jahshua> its supposedly quite easy
[11:57] <jahshua> i just have no idea how
[11:57] <jahshua> :p
[11:57] <emptystapler> Hobbsee_away: <sigh> The Disk & Filesystems module still fails to load
[11:57] <Hobbsee_away> dashinho: probably a bad question - they both do the same thing, but in slightly different ways - synaptic's better if you have no clue of the name of what you want to install, adept searches quicker
[11:57] <emptystapler> "The diagnostic is: <nothing>"
[11:57] <callie> jahshua: http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/opsys/linux/LinuxGuide/linux-identd.html
[11:58] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: huh?  *scrolls up looking for more info*
[11:58] <jahshua> great
[11:58] <sampan> emptystapler  the administrator mode bug was fixed a week or two after breezy released. updating (via adept-updater) should fix it right up
[11:58] <emptystapler> Hobbsee_away: there is no more info. I am just trying to go to the Disk & Filesystems settings (Dapper Flight 2)
[11:58] <Hobbsee_away> oh, right! yes, i see where i said something to you before - sorry about that!
[11:59] <Ahmuck> is there a way to remove packages from kubuntu ?
[11:59] <Hattori> to install a full language package, wich packages i need to install?
[11:59] <Hobbsee_away> Ahmuck: in adept, or use sudo aptitude remove packagename
[11:59] <emptystapler> Hobbsee_away: what do you recommend I update?
[12:00] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: is this the type of...you click on it from the kmenu, and it waits, but doesnt ever start?
[12:00] <callie> anyone watching the snooker by the way?
[12:00] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: updates are always useful
[12:00] <Hobz> I just tried to go form gnome to kde, but the only thing that's changed is the login screen
[12:00] <emptystapler> Hobbsee_away: yes, that has happened. with this particular settings module though, it required my root password and then gave me an error saying it failed to load the module
[12:00] <emptystapler> for unspecified reasons
[12:00] <Hobbsee_away> Hobz: in the login screen, select sessions, kde, then try logging in again
[12:00] <Hobz> k
[12:01] <callie> Hobz: sounds like you substituted gdm for kdm
[12:01] <emptystapler> Hobbsee_away: I'll go ahead and run all the updates available
[12:01] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: hmmm...check if there's a bug for it?  or on ubuntu forums?
[12:01] <Hobbsee_away> callie: a little late lol :P
[12:01] <callie> pft
[12:01] <Ahmuck> so i want the graphical interface of kde, but not all the extra stuff.  i can remove each one by one, such as kdetoys ?
[12:01] <callie> Hobbsee_away: and you're decidedly un-away :P
[12:01] <emptystapler> Hobbsee_away: I saw some mentions of it on a forum which somebody worked around by just using sudo kcontrol, but I have the same results from there
[12:01] <Hobbsee_away> callie: well, i'm semi away - i was getting dressed while typing, and i'm soon going to go get breakfast!
[12:02] <callie> where the hell are you?
[12:02] <Hobbsee_away> callie: australia
[12:02] <callie> aaaah
[12:02] <Hobbsee_away> hehe
[12:02] <emptystapler> Can anybody respond to my first question in here, which I will now re-paste:
[12:02] <hyperactivecrond> how does one remove a metapackage and the stuff to which it refers?
[12:02] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: kdesu kcontrol usually works...
[12:02] <callie> hahahahaaa its monday for you already
[12:02] <emptystapler> Earlier, I asked: I'm using Kubuntu Dapper Flight 2, and have a Radeon 9600XT. Will I get any significant 2d performance by using ATI's drivers?
[12:02] <emptystapler> performance increase*
[12:02] <Hobbsee_away> hyperactivecrond: sudo aptitude remove packagename - make sure you use aptitude for it, not apt-get
[12:02] <callie> try it
[12:02] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: try it, no clue
[12:03] <hyperactivecrond> ah thx Hobbsee_away
[12:03] <troy> emptystapler: the ATI drivers really do help over vesa
[12:03] <emptystapler> I'm scared :)
[12:03] <callie> bit slow Hobbsee_away :P
[12:03] <Hobbsee_away> emptystapler: do you know how to use irssi?
[12:03] <emptystapler> ATI provides some .run file "installer"
[12:03] <djk_> Hobbsee_away: what's wrong with apt-get doing it?
[12:03] <Hobbsee_away> hehe i know callie
[12:03] <emptystapler> as well as some other distributions
[12:03] <Hobz> thanks Hobbsee_away, that worked
[12:03] <hyperactivecrond> Hobbsee_away, it only removes that package
[12:03] <troy> emptystapler: use the official ATI drivers that are prepackaged for *ubuntu
[12:03] <Hobbsee_away> djk_: doesnt remove the dependancies that were installed with the original package - aptitude should do
[12:03] <hyperactivecrond> as in sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop
[12:03] <emptystapler> Hobbsee_away: what is irssi?
[12:03] <Hattori> to install a full language package, wich packages i need to install?
[12:03] <Hobbsee_away> !info irssi
[12:03] <troy> emptystapler: apt-get install xorg-drivers-fglrx (or similar)
[12:03] <hyperactivecrond> !irssi
[12:03] <ubotflu> irssi is, like, totally, http://f0rked.com/core/irssi
