[12:03] <dean> oh so it does not work from the auto media thing? thats what im trying to do
[12:04] <dean> should i just set it up as a proper mount then?
[12:04] <ryanakca> gah! kde keeps crashing! any suggestions?
[12:04] <ryanakca> its either really really slow, unresponsive, or I see vertical lines all over the top window decoration
[12:05] <mat___> at least that works for me
[12:06] <mat___> ryanakca:  is your X config proper?
[12:07] <ryanakca> mouse and keyboard frose...
[12:08] <mat___> ryanakca:  is your X config proper?
[12:08] <ryanakca> mat___: should be...
[12:09] <mat___> ryanakca:  it really sounds like an X error
[12:09] <ryanakca> mat___: its been slow and buggy every since I went "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop@
[12:09] <mat___> ryanakca: so you used gnome before?
[12:10] <mat___> ryanakca: prob. it starts now with gdm instead of kdm server
[12:11] <mat___> maybe there is something wrong
[12:11] <mat___> any logs?
[12:13] <arat> how do i run rpm files
[12:14] <dean> noooo created a new mount for the drive in /mnt/hda5 instead of /media/hda5 and not i can run files without them having to be copied to tmp but i still cant save files there with ktorrent
[12:14] <mat___> arat you can convert them via alien but no garanty
[12:14] <arat> alien?
[12:14] <l3m> !alien
[12:14] <mat___> yep
[12:14] <ubotu> methinks alien is a program to convert RPMs to DEBs. Its use is discouraged, as it could create serious problems. Website: http://www.kitenet.net/programs/alien/
[12:15] <arat> do i finnd iit on adept
[12:15] <l3m> yes.
[12:15] <arat> k
[12:15] <arat> imm  installing
[12:15] <mat___> ubotu:  my words excaly
[12:15] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, mat___
[12:15] <JohnFlux> I want to try to install linux on my handheld device
[12:15] <JohnFlux> I have an ethernet connection and usb
[12:15] <JohnFlux> what's the best way to get started?
[12:15] <mat___> arat but you prob better of compiling it yourself
[12:15] <JohnFlux> It has windows 98
[12:16] <arat> well how do i run alien
[12:16] <cerebrix> hey if someone could help me out w/ my problem at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=145622 id totally appreciate it.  ive been working on this w/ someone but were kinda stumped at this point.  thanks
[12:16] <l3m> arat: type man alien. this will give you a help page about the alien program
[12:16] <arat> omg
[12:16] <arat> no
[12:16] <arat> tell me
[12:16] <arat> lol
[12:16] <mat___> arat alien -i package.rpm
[12:17] <mat___> for installing
[12:17] <l3m> cerebrix: you'll probably need the -dev versions of the x packages
[12:18] <robotgeek> !xincludes
[12:18] <arat> i run this command in konsole
[12:18] <ubotu> When a program or configure script asks for "X includes", you should probably install the following packages: xlibs-dev   xlibs-static-dev   x-window-system-dev
[12:20] <arat> how do i run as root
[12:21] <arat> ?
[12:21] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell arat about root
[12:21] <arat> lol
[12:21] <mat___> arat https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo?action=show&redirect=UsingSudo
[12:21] <robotgeek> mat___: same link, actually :)
[12:22] <mat___> robotgeek: ahh sorry for that but usefull
[12:22] <robotgeek> yes
[12:22] <cerebrix> l3m: how do i go about getting those?
[12:22] <dean> good i am extreamly nnoyed with this drive mounting now :( now i have a new mount under /mnt/hda5 and even using the umask=0 and trying the lines offered by mat__ , frank32 and DeBert i dont have write access grrrr
[12:23] <frank23> dean: when you change fstab, you unmount and mount again, right?
[12:23] <dean> yes
[12:23] <DeBert> mat___: if you type "mount" in console, does it show the filesystem is mounted as read/write?
[12:23] <mat___> dean umask=0222,uid=0,gid=0,noauto,rw,users 0 0
[12:23] <dean> maybe this is kubuntus way of informing  im a fool
[12:24] <l3m> ubotu tell cerebrix about xincludes
[12:24] <l3m> ubotu: tell cerebrix about xincludes
[12:24] <ryanakca> mat___: sorry, dad called, umm... I ran this to remove ubuntu-desktop, but I still have the buggyness left by it.   http://robotgeek.org/wiki/ShellScripts/CleanPackage
[12:24] <frank23> dean: you can use the kde tool in system settings to do all this too
[12:24] <robotgeek> ryanakca: yes, it is not perfect :)
[12:24] <ryanakca> lol
[12:25] <robotgeek> ryanakca: it does do a decent job, don't you think :)
[12:25] <mat___> DeBert: YES WHEN I CLICKED IT ONCE TO MAOUNT IT
[12:25] <robotgeek> mat___: please don't shout
[12:25] <mat___> DeBert: sorry caps
[12:25] <mat___> my sticky figers
[12:26] <dean> -r-xr-xr-x is the permissions i get with that last line frank23 :( again now rite access
[12:26] <DeBert> mat___: sorry, that message was ment for dean lol
[12:27] <mat___> ryanakca: maybe try the reverse thing install kubuntu-desktop
[12:27] <dean> which sorry DeBert what do you mean
[12:27] <arat> this is not helping me
[12:27] <DeBert> i asked what the mount command showed, was meant for u, not mat
[12:27] <dean> im just hovering over a file in the mouted drive a looking at the permission shown
[12:27] <cerebrix> l3m: thanks.  got me far enough to get a new error for something else lol.  hey, its progress ;-)
[12:27] <frank23> dean: I get rwxr-xr-x because frank has uid 1000
[12:27] <arat> can you say how to log in as root step by step
[12:28] <frank23> dean: maybe 1000 is not your uid
[12:28] <l3m> cerebrix: paste the new error into the pastebin ...
[12:28] <robotgeek> arat: prefix 'sudo' before every command to execute as root. or type 'sudo -i'
[12:28] <dean> DeBert whats the command i would use to get the info you want (im still quite new to linux)
[12:29] <dean> if that was not obvoius already D
[12:29] <ZeZu> how to i open another tab for another server in Konversation ?
[12:29] <mat___> dean just right click on dektop now add new link to device  harddrive is it selectable?
[12:29] <ryanakca> robotgeek: bugginess meaning left by gdm/ubuntu-desktop
[12:29] <cerebrix> l3m: ok heres what i get when i try to ./configure now.
[12:29] <cerebrix> http://pastebin.com/606461
[12:29] <DeBert> dean: If you type "mount" you can see how all the filesystems are mounted, if you have write permissions at all
[12:29] <robotgeek> ryanakca: it desn't remove those packages?
[12:29] <arat> so what would be the comman
[12:29] <ryanakca> robotgeek: yes, it does do a very good job :)
[12:30] <ryanakca> robotgeek: kde was working fine before I made the stupid mistake of installingubuntu-desktop
[12:30] <dean> it says /dev/hda5 on /mnt/hda5 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0222,uid=0,gid=0)
[12:30] <robotgeek> ryanakca: it has some problems with xubuntu + ubuntu-desktop combo (due to shared packages)
[12:30] <arat> you can't help me?
[12:31] <robotgeek> arat: what are you trying to do?
[12:31] <l3m> cerebrix: ok. if you do ./configure --help you should get a list of command line options
[12:31] <ryanakca> ever since I installed ubuntu-desktop, I have vertical lines on the top of my window decoration (where the minimize, maximise, close, etc). Even once I removed it. I dont have xubuntu... just kubuntu
[12:31] <l3m> cerebrix: you probably have to specify the qt3 directory
[12:31] <arat> install a rpm with alien but its telling me to log in as rooy
[12:31] <arat> root
[12:31] <mat___> dean that should work now then
[12:31] <robotgeek> arat: sudo -i
[12:31] <cerebrix> by the way l3m thanks for rappin w/ me about this very cool of you
[12:32] <l3m> cerebrix: just trying to help, your welcome ;)
[12:32] <DeBert> dean: sounds to me like you still have some permissions wrong somewhere
[12:32] <arat> sudo -i package.rpm?
[12:32] <dean> i know :(
[12:32] <DeBert> dean; can you read/write as root?
[12:33] <robotgeek> arat: sudo -K && sudo alien -i package.rpm
[12:33] <dean> i get the error "cannot create <hugefilename>.mkv no such file or directory" :(
[12:34] <mat___> dean can you copy a normal small file to it?
[12:34] <cerebrix> qt is usually found in /usr/lib/perl5 correct?
[12:34] <mat___> arat sudo alien -i package.rpm
[12:35] <dean> mat__ nope says coud not write
[12:35] <dean> its deffinatly permissions
[12:35] <l3m> cerebrix: no
[12:35] <DeBert> dean: can you write as superuser?
[12:35] <mat___> maybe addgroup disk
[12:36] <l3m> cerebrix: the libs are /usr/lib/qt3
[12:36] <dean> but ktorrent crashs if i try to start it with sudo ktorrent
[12:36] <l3m> cerebrix: the includes (headers) are /usr/include/qt3
[12:36] <DeBert> dean: first try to get it working outside ktorrent
[12:36] <cerebrix> only thing i have in there is a plugins directory
[12:36] <robotgeek> DeBert: why do you need to start it as root?
[12:36] <l3m> cerebrix: ah
[12:36] <durga> how do i convert wmv9 files to mpeg for vcd burn ?
[12:37] <l3m> cerebrix: apt-get install libqt3-mt-dev (i think )
[12:37] <DeBert> robotgeek: i never said that
[12:37] <robotgeek> DeBert: sorry, tab complete error
[12:37] <dean> how do i get as superuser? i have tried su but the password is different to the one for my account and i was not asked for any other
[12:37] <Red_Herring> sudo
[12:37] <Red_Herring> sudo -s
[12:37] <robotgeek> dean: why do you need to do as root?
[12:37] <mat___> dean kdesu konqueror
[12:37] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell dean about root
[12:37] <mat___> try browsing it
[12:38] <arrinmurr> dean: "sudo -i" is the best way to do that, since it also changes the home directory to /root
[12:39] <cerebrix> ok a little further now were making more progress
[12:39] <cerebrix> new error again lol
[12:39] <cerebrix> sec ill pastebin
[12:39] <visik7> does someone got locked key sometimes in kde ? (even if sticky buttons are turned off?)
[12:39] <DeBert> dean: just type "sudo touch /dev/hda5/test"
[12:39] <Red_Herring> touch?
[12:39] <DeBert> dean: and see if it works
[12:40] <cerebrix> http://pastebin.com/606486
[12:40] <DeBert> Red_Herring: yeah, to create an empty testfile
[12:40] <Red_Herring> ah
[12:40] <Red_Herring> ya
[12:40] <visik7> hda5 is not a directory
[12:41] <l3m> cerebrix: apt-get install libkdebase-dev
[12:41] <DeBert> dean: sorry, i meant "sudo touch /mnt/hda5/test"
[12:41] <l3m> cerebrix: or kdebase-dev
[12:41] <dean> yes that worked
[12:41] <DeBert> dean: than it's definatly wrong permissions somewhere
[12:42] <dean> i know :(
[12:42] <cerebrix> ok grabbing kdebase-dev.  man am i happy i pay for 10mb cable right now lol
[12:42] <Red_Herring> :-D
[12:42] <Red_Herring> i got comcast
[12:42] <Red_Herring> hey its CheeseBurgerMan
[12:42] <CheeseBurgerMan> hehe, yes it is. ;)
[12:42] <Red_Herring> w00t, my server is up again!
[12:42] <CheeseBurgerMan> :D
[12:42] <cerebrix> woot, we got thru it
[12:42] <Red_Herring> i got off my ass and made a perminant ip address
[12:42] <LeeJunFan> omg, what a kubuntu filled couple of days I've had setting up our new library with 22 workstations and a couple servers.
[12:42] <mat___> superkaramnba is very buggy
[12:43] <Red_Herring> mat___: how long did it take ya to figure that out?
[12:43] <Red_Herring> http://rj.selfip.com
[12:43] <Red_Herring> w00t
[12:43] <Red_Herring> its a debian server, because i had ta NOT use ubuntu for soemthing
[12:43] <mat___> dean you might wanna ad disk group to your current user
[12:44] <dean> how do i do that?
[12:44] <cerebrix> doh and make kicks back an error
[12:44] <mat___> Red_Herring:  indead i figured it out pretty quick
[12:45] <l3m> cerebrix: well pastebin's always here for you
[12:45] <l3m> hehe
[12:45] <Red_Herring> mat___: hehehe
[12:45] <ryanakca> hmmm... how do I run a portscan?
[12:45] <cerebrix> http://pastebin.com/606496
[12:45] <ryanakca> I want to check if anything shows up in /var/log/messages
[12:46] <mat___> dean: easiest is maybe thru system settings user & groups
[12:46] <Red_Herring> http://linux.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=180444&cid=14936743
[12:46] <Red_Herring> have i missed something?
[12:46] <dean> mat__: yeah i added disk to my groups
[12:47] <cerebrix> wee composite manager killed x wee
[12:47] <cerebrix> lol
[12:47] <mat___> i know you can do it via command but i just don't know by hart
[12:47] <dean> do i need to do anything for it to take effect like log out
[12:47] <mat___> not really
[12:47] <mat___> refresh shoukld be ok
[12:47] <Red_Herring> !automatix
[12:47] <ubotu> well, automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[12:48] <Red_Herring> what? not whats slashdot says
[12:48] <DeBert> i basically don't use automatix cause it install non-free software
[12:48] <Red_Herring> what/
[12:48] <Red_Herring> ?
[12:48] <visik7> slashdot is not the holy bible
[12:48] <Red_Herring> so you dont use non-oss software?
[12:49] <cerebrix> l3m: did you get that pastebin?
[12:49] <CheeseBurgerMan> I don't use Automatix 'cause I wanna learn to do stuff the 'hard way' :P
[12:49] <dean> mat__ it made no diference :(
[12:49] <DeBert> besides, i don't need things like adobe reader when i have kpdf :)
[12:49] <l3m> cerebrix: apt-get install autoconf
[12:49] <nalioth> Red_Herring: nalioth.hostdestroyer.com/comparison.html
[12:50] <dean> i think i may call it a night at that :( wasted a whole 3 hours which should have really ben spent on university coursework :(:(
[12:50] <DeBert> CheeseBurgerMan: i learned things the hard way while using slackware for many years, i'm done with that now :)
[12:50] <CheeseBurgerMan> Good for you. :P
[12:50] <Red_Herring> sure nalioth, but does it work?
[12:50] <DeBert> i prefer lazyness now
[12:50] <Red_Herring> i thought easy ubuntu was still in beta
[12:50] <nalioth> Red_Herring: does what work?
[12:51] <dean> mat__: frank23: DeBert: Thanks for trying to help me in this lost cause :D
[12:51] <DeBert> np
[12:51] <dean> good night all
[12:51] <cerebrix> that did it =D

[12:58] <l3m> cerebrix: yw!
[01:07] <tibs01> anyone er
[01:07] <CheeseBurgerMan> Yes
[01:48] <nirvdrum> Hi.  I just tried out one of the dapper live cds on a 1 GHz TiBook and couldn't get my wireless card to work.  Does anyone happen to know if the live cd just doesn't have everything on it and that an install will work with the airport card?
[01:49] <iquniez> hi, whats the two lines to get wlan on kubuntu, That should be in /etc/network/interfaces ? Do anyone know that ?
[01:49] <LeeJunFan> nirvdrum: the livecd should have the same drivers as the install, and afaik the card should be supported.
[01:50] <LeeJunFan> iquniez: depends on what ethernet your device is recognized as.
[01:50] <nirvdrum> LeeJunFan: Hmm . . . guess I'll have to dig into it a bit more.  It's been a good three years since I tried to do wireless in linux.  I was hoping it would just work this time around.
[01:50] <Red_Herring> nirvdrum: try ndiswrapper
[01:50] <Red_Herring> the latest works GREAT
[01:51] <LeeJunFan> iquniez: auto ath0 and iface ath0 inet dhcp might be all you need.
[01:51] <nirvdrum> Red_Herring: I'll check it out.  Thanks.
[01:51] <iquniez> LeeJunFan: I wil try  =)
[01:51] <LeeJunFan> nirvdrum: I've been doing wireless for years in linux and it has gotten a lot easier.
[01:52] <LeeJunFan> hell, I started before there was 802.11b.
[01:52] <nirvdrum> Heh.
[01:52] <nirvdrum> Well, I remember it was a painful process that had to be repeated every time I updated my kernel.
[01:52] <nirvdrum> So, not something I was looking forward too :-P
[01:53] <nirvdrum> too = to
[01:53] <iquniez> LeeJunFan: That didnt work, there was somethink about wirless-mode and then the router ip, and DHCP and dont remember anymore..
[01:54] <LeeJunFan> iquniez: shouldn't need the router ip with dhcp
[01:54] <iquniez> LeeJunFan: i dont write it, just wrote the router name
[01:55] <LeeJunFan> iquniez: perhaps also under iface line add wireless-essid [your network name] 
[01:55] <LeeJunFan> iquniez: that's probably it then, also wireless-mode managed, and if you use wep wireless-enc [key] 
[01:57] <iquniez> LeeJunFan: There was something about that, yes, but i stil dont get wirless
[01:58] <ryanakca> hmmm... how do I run a portscan?
[01:58] <ryanakca> I want to check if anything shows up in /var/log/messages
[01:58] <LeeJunFan> ryanakca: nmap
[01:58] <iquniez> the lines are now "iface eth1 dchp, wirless-essid belkin, wirless-mode managed
[01:58] <ryanakca> LeeJunFan: aye, ty
[01:58] <LeeJunFan> iquniez: iface eth1 inet dhcp
[01:59] <LeeJunFan> after you make any changes to that file ifdown eth1 && ifup eth1 of course.
[02:01] <ryanakca> LeeJunFan: something should show up in /var/log/messages when I run "nmap -v -A 192.168.1.102", right?
[02:03] <LeeJunFan> ryanakca: not necessarily if you have no services running then there's noting there for nmap to connect to, and no services to log to syslog.
[02:03] <ArthurB> Hi, whenever I run k3b (0.12.14 on 3.5.1) if I try to run the setup ( kdesu kcmshell 'k3bsetup2' ) I get prompted for my password and then I only see a blank dialog with no controls instead of the setup panel. Anyone with same version can confirm / infirm ?
[02:03] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: yeah, same here. you have to kill that and go to the config not the setup.
[02:04] <LeeJunFan> ie. not the wizard mode setup.
[02:04] <ArthurB> does the config do the same job ?
[02:04] <stian> LeeJunFan: tnx, now the wlan working
[02:04] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: yeah.
[02:04] <ArthurB> including the suid thing ?
[02:04] <LeeJunFan> stian: cool.
[02:04] <ryanakca> LeeJunFan: CUPS is running on 631...
[02:04] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: I think so.
[02:04] <ArthurB> I remember back on other distro I had to set some suid for a burning process
[02:05] <LeeJunFan> ryanakca: cups logs to /var/log/cupsys or whatever dir, not syslog.
[02:05] <ryanakca> aye, would apache syslog?
[02:05] <ryanakca> mysql?
[02:05] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: yeah, shouldn't need to do that any more.
[02:05] <ArthurB> cool
[02:05] <ArthurB> now for wifi, is there something that I can use instead of iwconfig + dhclient ?
[02:05] <LeeJunFan> ryanakca: /var/log/apache2 and mysql doesn't normally log unless you specify in /etc/init.d/mysql
[02:06] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: kwifimanager
[02:06] <ArthurB> Tried it.
[02:06] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: or set your /etc/network/interfaces file so it comes up configed already.
[02:06] <ryanakca> LeeJunFan: then what would log to syslog if it's port was scanned?
[02:07] <ryanakca> LeeJunFan: I'm trying to test this: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=26867
[02:07] <ArthurB> How do you scan for access point when in managed mode with KWifimanage
[02:07] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: man interfaces will tell you everything you need for that, it doesn't mention wireless- stuff though, interfaces can use anything iwconfig can you just have to prepend wireless- to it, ie wireless-essid linksys
[02:07] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: to be honest I never used it. I'm a cmdline junky for most things.
[02:09] <LeeJunFan> ryanakca: maybe you are supposed to use portsentry or snort with it? Those will show scans, and snort will show much much more.
[02:10] <ArthurB> LeeJunFan: me too, but I need to show people how "easy" it is :)
[02:11] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: yeah, I'm bad for that. I use cmdline for so many things I'm lost when some people talk about configuring stuff with gui's.
[02:11] <ephesius> could anyone help me enable 3d acceleration on my thinkpad t40
[02:12] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: what about the kde network manager?
[02:12] <LeeJunFan> ArthurB: haha, I lied. I have kwifimanager running, but I don't use it to config anything, just as a signal meter.
[02:13] <LeeJunFan> didn't even realize I was using that.
[02:15] <djk_> how do i install grub only without installing ubuntu?
[02:41] <mat___> djk grub install
[02:42] <ryanakca> anybody here know of the word game where you fill in the blanks in a story? like "Yesterday I bought a ________ at the mall. It is very ________. I also ________ a chair."  I'm brainstorming on an idea for my first program, and it seems to be pretty simple to make...
[02:43] <Dasnipa`> mad libs?] 
[02:43] <nalioth> mad libs
[02:44] <ryanakca> yes, thank-you :)
[02:44] <Dasnipa`> you could get into some complexity with that if you are going to use a dictionary to verify if word x is a noun or word y is a verb
[02:44] <Dasnipa`> but with no sanity checks like that should be very simple to program
[02:44] <shrewduser> nah skip the checks... :)
[02:44] <ryanakca> I wouldn't make it do checks

[03:31] <ArthurB> oh :(
[03:32] <Red_Herring> well, kubuntu w/ gdm
[03:32] <ArthurB> can't make it work with kde_decorations
[03:32] <Red_Herring> kdm is broken
[03:32] <Red_Herring> its KDE
[03:32] <Red_Herring> just gdm
[03:32] <ArthurB> oh
[03:32] <ArthurB> but I can bypass gdm etc
[03:32] <ArthurB> I succeeded in launching an XGl server with a xterm running on it
[03:32] <Red_Herring> well, has anyone had any wierd behavior w/ crashing on certain keys?
[03:32] <ArthurB> but I have no window decorations :-/

[03:33] <Red_Herring> except ! and _ crash it
[03:33] <Red_Herring> along with other random ones
[03:33] <ArthurB> do you run kde_decorations ?
[03:33] <Red_Herring> dunno

[03:43] <neoncode> Can anyone help me with superkaramba? I downloaded and compiled version 0.37 from source as the repo version kept crashing, but this version is doing the same. Whenever I try to launch any theme it crashes. When I run it from console it gives these errors: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/606732
[03:48] <mcscruff> neoncode , sry im not sure, :(

[04:47] <eric_> hey everybody
[04:47] <eric_> I just got kubuntu installed, and I want to know the root password
[04:47] <frank23> !tell eric_ about rootsudo
[04:47] <eric_> can anyone help me ouy?
[04:48] <frank23> root account is disabled.  you can use sudo instead
[04:48] <eric_> I am kinda new to linux
[04:48] <eric_> all I know is that
[04:48] <CheeseBurgerMan> !sudo
[04:48] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[04:48] <eric_> I have the flash player installer downloaded and I need root to install it
[04:48] <eric_> thank you
[04:49] <CheeseBurgerMan> NP
[04:49] <LeeJunFan> eric_: actually you don't, you can put it in ~/.firefox/plugins
[04:49] <frank23> eric_: whenever you need to do something as root, do  sudo command instead
[04:49] <LeeJunFan> eric_: but then if you have multiple users that's not what you want.
[04:49] <frank23> eric_: but for flash you can install it with adept as well
[04:58] <eric_> thank you all very much, I am figuring this out as I go.  I am using adept right now to try and get tis installed
[04:59] <frank23> eric_: you will have to enable multiverse

[05:51] <Red_Herring> anyone know of any REALLY good free keyloggers for windows?
[05:51] <elijahlofgren> Red_Herring: Why?
[05:51] <Red_Herring> my dad is holding my router hostage
[05:51] <Red_Herring> i need to find out the password
[05:51] <elijahlofgren> Red_Herring: Why is he doing that?
[05:51] <Red_Herring> reset button is too obvious
[05:52] <Red_Herring> elijahlofgren: my mom told him to

[07:16] <ealm> when trying to start ksysguard I get this error: ealm@ealm:~$ ksysguard: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libkdnssd.so.1: undefined symbol: avahi_client_new
[07:19] <frank23> ealm: is this in breezy?
[07:19] <ealm> frank23: dapper 5
[07:19] <frank23> ealm: hmm.. the last time I tried dapper in vmware ksysguard was not opening. maybe that was the problem
[07:20] <ealm> frank23: probably.. it isn't opening here either, this was the error given when trying to run from console
[07:20] <frank23> ealm: dapper being dapper, I say you probably have to wait until it gets fixed
[07:25] <swtaarrs> i just isntalled kubuntu, and when I try to run adept and it asks for my password, it says i'm entering the wrong password (even though I know it's right, I logged in with it), and then after a few tries it just says "su returned with an error" and won't even ask
[07:26] <swtaarrs> i've tried all the things on the RootSudo wiki regarding the root password but nothing seems to help, anyone have an idea?
[07:26] <robotgeek> swtaarrs: "kdesu adept"
[07:26] <swtaarrs> that gives the same error
[07:26] <swtaarrs> "su returned with an error"
[07:26] <robotgeek> swtaarrs: hmm, interesting. did you enable root or something
[07:27] <swtaarrs> yeah, during the installation
[07:27] <frank23> swtaarrs: does sudo work? try something like  sudo ls
[07:27] <robotgeek> swtaarrs: please read the wiki page, gui tools will not work if you do that
[07:27] <swtaarrs> it asks for a password but doesn't do anything
[07:28] <swtaarrs> well i tried disabling it like the wiki said but that didn't help
[07:28] <robotgeek> swtaarrs: enter your user password, that might work
[07:28] <swtaarrs> i've tried both my user and root password
[07:28] <robotgeek> swtaarrs: i am not sure since you used expert mode, sorry.
[07:29] <swtaarrs> alright
[07:29] <frank23> I don't remember the option of enabling root during install. oh, expert mode
[07:29] <swtaarrs> yeah
[07:29] <swtaarrs> i wanted to make sure it didn't delete my existing patitions
[07:29] <frank23> swtaarrs: you probably have to be in the sudoers group or admin or whatever it is. I don't know the details
[07:30] <swtaarrs> hm
[07:30] <swtaarrs> i'll check that
[07:47] <swtaarrs> does the installer ask about partitioning in regular mode?
[07:47] <swtaarrs> i think i'm just gonna reinstall
[07:49] <Hobbsee> swtaarrs: yes, it does
[07:49] <frank23> swtaarrs: yes. and you can select manual partitioning
[07:49] <Hobbsee> you can do a manual partition in regular mode, as well
[07:50] <swtaarrs> alright
[07:50] <swtaarrs> yeah i do too
[07:50] <swtaarrs> thanks
[07:50] <swtaarrs> here i go
[07:57] <_jonathan> hello, I'm having trouble getting devices to automount
[07:57] <_jonathan> i have a usb stick and a ipod nano....neither will mount when i plug them in
[07:58] <robotgeek> _jonathan: can you popen up a terminal
[07:58] <_jonathan> yeah
[07:58] <_jonathan> ok
[07:59] <robotgeek> type "pmount /dev/sda1"
[07:59] <_jonathan> sudo?
[07:59] <robotgeek> nope
[08:00] <_jonathan> sda1 is already mounted
[08:00] <_jonathan> i believe that's my sata drive
[08:00] <robotgeek> _jonathan: then "cd /media/"
[08:00] <robotgeek> and look for your device
[08:00] <_jonathan> ok
[08:00] <_jonathan> ok, usbstick shows up
[08:01] <_jonathan> at least the folder is there
[08:01] <_jonathan> cdrom  cdrom0  cdrom1  floppy  floppy0  ipod  sdc2  sdd2  sde  usbdisk
[08:01] <robotgeek> _jonathan: hey, even ipod is there
[08:02] <_jonathan> well, i don't know...i was trying a fix i found and mkdir'd /media/ipod
[08:02] <_jonathan> so, that folder might be em
[08:02] <_jonathan> me
[08:02] <robotgeek> _jonathan . unplug your ipod and plug it back in
[08:03] <_jonathan> the file or folder media:/sde2 does not exist
[08:03] <_jonathan> same for sde1 as well
[08:04] <robotgeek> _jonathan: now, type dmesg
[08:04] <robotgeek> in the end of the output, it should say sdX detected etc
[08:05] <_jonathan> i see a few things showing it was detected
[08:06] <_jonathan> should i paste it all here?
[08:06] <robotgeek> _jonathan, don't paste in here. Please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:07] <_jonathan> ok, it's there under soundmaster
[08:08] <_jonathan> forgive a newbie if it's not right :-)
[08:09] <robotgeek> _jonathan: please hilight my nick, when you paste it.
[08:09] <robotgeek> say my nick, ie :)
[08:09] <_jonathan> ok, i think i did
[08:10] <_jonathan> granted, i don't know...but this is a fresh install
[08:11] <_jonathan> i guess i could try updating first
[08:11] <robotgeek> _jonathan: i don't follow
[08:11] <_jonathan> well, i was reading again where someone fixed a similar problem with apt-get update
[08:12] <_jonathan> or upgrade i mean
[08:12] <robotgeek> _jonathan: hmm, maybe not. just paste it in pastebin and give us the url
[08:13] <_jonathan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10378
[08:13] <_jonathan> that's not the full dmesg, just about where i noticed the ipod
[08:15] <robotgeek> _jonathan: pmount sde1
[08:16] <_jonathan> "/dev/sde1" ?
[08:17] <_jonathan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10379
[08:17] <robotgeek> _jonathan: "dmesg | tail" then
[08:18] <robotgeek> _jonathan: also try cd /media/sde1 if it is present
[08:19] <_jonathan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10380
[08:21] <robotgeek> _jonathan: sorry, i am not sure. never used an ipod before.
[08:21] <robotgeek> maybe also ask in #ubuntu, seems quite a generic problem
[08:22] <_jonathan> well, I've been searching too and i've been seeing where it's possibly a problem with HAL in kde 3.4
[08:22] <_jonathan> who knows...but i've seen that 4-5 times now
[08:22] <robotgeek> _jonathan: maybe upgrade to 3.5.1 , more bugfree
[08:22] <robotgeek> !kde3.5.1
[08:22] <ubotu> To upgrade to KDE3.5.1, Follow the instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-351.php (add the deb... line to your sources.list). Then "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".
[08:22] <_jonathan> yeah, that's what i'm working on
[08:23] <ealm> I try to play music in amarok using the xine engine, under kde.. but the tracks are played through VERY fast (a few sec per track) with no sound output
[08:24] <_jonathan> thank you for trying robotgeek
[08:24] <robotgeek> _jonathan: 1 outta 2 ain't bad :)
[08:24] <_jonathan> lol
[08:24] <robotgeek> ealm: is this breezy?
[08:25] <ealm> dapper 5
[08:32] <_jonathan> hey robotgeek
[08:33] <_ryan> Bah im so lost in KDE...how come I cannot access my hdd? and how do i turn on universe and multiverse?
[08:33] <robotgeek> ealm: libxine-extracodecs installed
[08:33] <robotgeek> _jonathan: yo
[08:33] <_jonathan> robotgeek, i have 2 new icons
[08:33] <_jonathan> lol...usbkey and ipod on desktop

[08:34] <_jonathan> thanks again for your help, wanted to check back and tell you
[08:34] <_ryan> robotgeek: thankz! =)
[08:34] <robotgeek> _jonathan: cool, np! have fun. amarok manages ipods well?
[08:34] <_jonathan> i have no idea
[08:35] <robotgeek> _jonathan: try :)
[08:35] <_jonathan> honestly, i got tired of wiping XP every 3 months and decided i'd make myself like kubuntu
[08:35] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: ping
[08:35] <Hobbsee> fatejudger: pong
[08:36] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: how did the meeting go?
[08:36] <Hobbsee> fatejudger: interesting.  there should be minutes up, and the chat log will be there
[08:36] <Hobbsee> some stuff was difinitive, other stuff wasnt
[08:36] <GullyFoyle> i've noticed that once i got UT2004 running on kubuntu i boot into winbloze MUCH less often
[08:36] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: the chat log will be where?
[08:37] <Hobbsee> there's a guy who's going to work on the splash stuff, which will be good - he was the boss of everaldo (icon maker, among other things), and did some work with suse
[08:37] <fatejudger> nice
[08:37] <Hobbsee> wiki.ubuntu.com/meetinglogs or something?
[08:37] <fatejudger> what about the blue theme in Kubuntu?
[08:37] <fatejudger> are they changing it back?
[08:37] <Hobbsee> topic in #ubuntu-meeting has that link
[08:37] <Hobbsee> i dont think so - i suggested shiny, and keep it bright blue
[08:37] <Hobbsee> it'll be put up somewhere for lookign at soon - not sure where though
[08:39] <frank23> Hobbsee: what happened in yesterday's meeting?
[08:39] <fatejudger> frank23: I just asked her that
[08:39] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: you supported the new look?
[08:39] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: have you even seen it?
[08:40] <frank23> fatejudger: oh sorry
[08:40] <Hobbsee> fatejudger: if it's made all nice and shiny, yes
[08:40] <Hobbsee> IIRC i said the current one was a horrible abomination.
[08:40] <Hobbsee> but it was pretty early this morning
[08:40] <fatejudger> it is
[08:40] <Hobbsee> i know
[08:40] <fatejudger> it looks like they released a whole slew of updates
[08:40] <Hobbsee> but it'd look good all shiny-ised
[08:41] <fatejudger> maybe
[08:41] <fatejudger> they'd have to get some really good designers in there
[08:41] <Hobbsee> i found a pretty nice kdm and background - not sure what they'll do with that
[08:41] <fatejudger> I've always advocated using the stuff on kde-look
[08:41] <Hobbsee> fatejudger: have you ever seen everaldo's stuff?  it's pretty nice, and i'm assuming that's the sort of stuff that we'll get
[08:41] <fatejudger> since it seems like they've got far more coders than designers
[08:41] <fatejudger> everaldo is a very talented designer
[08:41] <Hobbsee> indeed
[08:41] <fatejudger> I didn't know we had him on board
[08:41] <Hobbsee> we dont - we have his boss
[08:42] <fatejudger> his boss?
[08:43] <fatejudger> I didn't know he had one
[08:44] <Hobbsee> forgotten the name, he's featured in the logs
[08:44] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: I don't see the log
[08:45] <Hobbsee> fatejudger: it's off https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/ - the IRC logs
[08:45] <Hobbsee> but i'm not sure if the wiki is down or something
[08:46] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: it's not up there
[08:46] <Hobbsee> yeah, but there are irc logs
[08:46] <Hobbsee> which you then go to ubuntu-meeting, and are there
[08:48] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: it's not there
[08:48] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: I'm looking at it
[08:48] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: the last one is for February 16th
[08:48] <Hobbsee> yes, there's a link to irc logs, on the meeting logs page
[08:51] <Hobbsee> fatejudger: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs/ubuntu-meeting-2006-03-16.html
[08:52] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: thanks
[08:53] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: did your checkinstall packages get uploaded to the repos yet?
[08:54] <Hobbsee> fatejudger: no, they're still buggy - cant find cj_gettext or something
[08:54] <Hobbsee> couldnt find the solution
[08:54] <Hobbsee> the buggy one is on revu
[08:54] <Hobbsee> it compiles fine, just gives that error trying to run
[08:54] <Hobbsee> away for a bitg
[08:54] <fatejudger> Hobbsee: that's pretty important
[08:55] <Hobbsee_away> fatejudger: which, the cj_gettext, or checkinstall?
[08:55] <fatejudger> the checkinstall bug
[08:56] <fatejudger> Hobbsee_away: do you know how to change the progress bar from that horrible blue to something else?
[09:02] <fatejudger> does anyone know what package KDE headers is in Dapper?
[09:02] <uniq> kde-devel
[09:02] <fatejudger> uniq: I need to write that down somewhere....
[09:02] <fatejudger> KaoticEvil: heh
[09:03] <_ryan> any1 know what files i need for Kaffeine to play mkv files?
[09:03] <robotgeek> _ryan: hmm, i think you need w32codecs, not sure. sorry
[09:04] <_ryan> hmm
[09:07] <_ryan> maybe i should try ubuntu channel
[09:08] <Hobbsee_away> fatejudger: i dont.  dinner
[09:15] <DeBert> _ryan: maybe xine-extracodecs, but i'm not sure
[09:16] <_ryan> DeBert: I just wanna make sure im not installing a bunch of stuff if they dont work >.<
[09:16] <_ryan> i had problems earlier w/ GNOME ...i had 6 media players and 1 FINALLY rna it
[09:17] <_ryan> ran it*
[09:19] <Kamping_Kaiser> ran what?
[09:21] <_ryan> mkv files
[09:21] <Kamping_Kaiser> never heard of them before
[09:22] <_ryan> they are media files
[09:22] <_ryan> alot used for anime
[09:23] <Kamping_Kaiser> hm. all mine are avis or mpgs. *shrug*
[09:23] <frank23> _ryan: install kaffeine-xine and change the engine to kaffeine
[09:24] <_ryan> frank23: ahh u from yesterday ^^. Now umm...how do i go about changing the engine?
[09:24] <Drew3> Hi all,  Both  OO.O (ver 1 & 2) do not have working spellchecker.   Is this common on kubuntu, is it something anyone has seen before?
[09:25] <frank23> _ryan: Settings->Player Engine I think
[09:25] <_ryan> mmk
[09:26] <Drew3> It has not appeared before for me on other distro's  , but twice on kubuntu.
[09:27] <Kamping_Kaiser> Drew3: what language?
[09:27] <Drew3> english  US
[09:27] <Kamping_Kaiser> i would expect that to be defaulted ok
[09:28] <Drew3> me too :-(
[09:30] <Kamping_Kaiser> :/
[09:30] <Kamping_Kaiser> have you checked it's instaled?
[09:31] <_ryan> frank23: how do i find kaffeine-xine?
[09:31] <Drew3> It seem odd the the two kubuntu installs, do not have OO spell checker working.   I have done 3 other distros and not had this problem.   O Well it's late, maybe I should check back in the tomorrw a bit earlier.
[09:31] <cerebrix> hey anyone know if its possible to have the kde composite manager ignore superkaramba windows?
[09:31] <_ryan> frank23: is it an application in Multimedia?
[09:32] <frank23> _ryan: it is in universe

[09:32] <Drew3> Kamping_Kaiser:  yes, I checked, but will check again tomorrow,  I was more wondering if it was something seen before..?
[09:33] <frank23> _ryan: open kaffeine and change the engine
[09:33] <Kamping_Kaiser> Drew3: i havent, but i use a GB dictionarly
[09:33] <Kamping_Kaiser> brb. this lag is just stupid
[09:33] <Drew3> Kamping_Kaiser: Thank you
[09:34] <_ryan> frank23: all there is under that is Kaffeine and GstreamerPart
[09:35] <_ryan> frank23: do i need w32codecs then?
[09:35] <frank23> _ryan: yes, you choose kaffeine

[09:41] <Tallia1Kubuntu> and the old one that i have
[09:42] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i can't even send them
[09:42] <Tallia1Kubuntu> what the hell are the developers doing?
[09:43] <mornfall> Tallia1Kubuntu: i'm almost sure they have more important issues than your emoticons
[09:43] <mornfall> Tallia1Kubuntu: have you reported the bug at least?
[09:44] <mornfall> Tallia1Kubuntu: maybe with patches? </optimist>
[09:45] <_ryan> what what port to what port to i need to forward for Ktorrent?
[09:46] <_ryan> im getting the NAT firewall problem
[09:54] <fatejudger> is there a upower package for Dapper?
[09:59] <_mindspin> does anyone know why my interface entries in /etc/network/interfaces are "vanish" i.e. the nameserver entry vanishes at reboot ?
[10:00] <_mindspin> no matter if I edit it via kcontrol or by hand
[10:01] <frank23> do you have something like network-manager which could be doing that
[10:01] <_mindspin> not that i know
[10:01] <_mindspin> the behavoiur appeard since my last uodate
[10:02] <frank23> you run breezy?
[10:02] <_mindspin> yup
[10:02] <alfatau> hello, can you help me? my kde menu hasn't the "editors" choice, and kappfinder doesn't find my installed editors. I've many other applications which i must know the bin name to execute because don't appear on the kde menu. what can i do?
[10:03] <frank23> _mindspin: not sure
[10:03] <frank23> alfatau: kate is in utilities
[10:03] <_mindspin> network-manager is not installed
[10:04] <frank23> alfatau: I don't know about the rest. what are you missing?
[10:07] <alfatau> frank23: i don't know all missing apps: every day i discover i need an app but it's already installed and doesn't appear in the kde menu..
[10:07] <frank23> alfatau: yeah some apps don't appear in the menu.
[10:07] <frank23> alfatau: you can always add it yourself
[10:07] <alfatau> frank23: can't i add all kde apps in the kde menu?
[10:08] <frank23> alfatau: well kde apps at least should appear in the menu
[10:10] <Tallia1Kubuntu> meh
[10:10] <Tallia1Kubuntu> it's only me having troubles with kopete
[10:11] <Tm_T> hm?
[10:11] <Tallia1Kubuntu> emoticons
[10:11] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i can't save them
[10:12] <Tm_T> it's not trouble at all
[10:12] <Tallia1Kubuntu> why?
[10:12] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i can't
[10:12] <Tm_T> it save's you from one =)
[10:12] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ?
[10:12] <Tm_T> nothing
[10:13] <Tm_T> I just don't like all that "msn" world with big, bounzy, flickery custom emoticons and all, they are 99% of time just annoying
[10:13] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ok..
[10:13] <Tm_T> s/z/c/
[10:13] <Tallia1Kubuntu> good way to answer a question ... ^__^
[10:13] <Tallia1Kubuntu> however.. i'd like to know why they don't work
[10:13] <Tallia1Kubuntu> file transfer
[10:16] <simian> i've googled for a good samba tutorial a few times but I can't seem to find any good ones (or ones that work for me I mean)
[10:16] <simian> can anyone recomend one
[10:16] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ubuntu wiki
[10:16] <Tallia1Kubuntu> !samba
[10:16] <ubotu> I heard samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[10:16] <Tallia1Kubuntu> hope it will help
[10:17] <Tallia1Kubuntu> !bullshit
[10:17] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Tallia1Kubuntu
[10:17] <_mindspin> http://www.samba.org/
[10:17] <simian> I tried that some time ago, but I'll have another look
[10:17] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i never had problems
[10:17] <Tallia1Kubuntu> maybe it is on the windows one
[10:17] <Tallia1Kubuntu> part*
[10:18] <_JohnFlux> frank23: that ksysguard problem is because it's been compiled with Rendezvous support, but you don't have it on your system
[10:19] <_mindspin> simian: theres a whole bunch of documentation on the samba.org site and reading it gives you a lot of insight in samba
[10:19] <_mindspin> but what are you particulary looking for?
[10:19] <frank23> _JohnFlux: that was in dapper. I don't really use it
[10:20] <simian> i'm just looking to set up a very simple network between a linux and windows box, just simply so that I know how
[10:21] <simian> I've tried a few tutorials but I keep getting stuck when the tutorial refers to somthing that doesn't apply to my system or certain damons don't start etc
[10:22] <simian> i'll have another look at samba.org and ubuntu wiki
[10:22] <_mindspin> that will not be that hard, I guess ubotus links will fit
[10:23] <_mindspin> the samba.org docs deal alot with windows domains and suff, but you are not running a win domaine do you ?
[10:23] <simian> no
[10:24] <_mindspin> so it will be rather simple, it's kinda tricky when you are not /no more used to windows ;-)
[10:25] <Kao|Away> sweet! :D
[10:25] <Tm_T> Tallia1Kubuntu: anyway, what version of Kopete?
[10:25] <Kao|Away> my radeon is here.. now i get to reconfigure X... again
[10:27] <Kao|Away> ubotu: tell simian about samba
[10:27] <Kao|Away> simian: try those links :)
[10:29] <simian> Kao|Away: ty and good night
[10:31] <ragna> huhu
[10:33] <ragna> can some1 tell me why i cant play mp3s? .. have amarok gstream0.8-lame and alsa installed .. but amarok says he dont know the format?
[10:34] <_mindspin> !codecs
[10:34] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
[10:34] <_mindspin> !mp3
[10:34] <ubotu> rumour has it, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[10:35] <ragna> :-\ i have the codec ... hmm .. i read the wiki mom :>
[10:35] <snapy> hello, I would like to know if there is a "Search file" option in konqueror file manager
[10:36] <robotgeek> snapy: kmenu -> search files
[10:36] <snapy> looking..
[10:37] <snapy> robotgeek: thanks I think this will be enough, however...
[10:37] <snapy> is there any future thinking of adding a "Search here" right-button action in Konqueror?
[10:38] <snapy> (just curious)
[10:38] <snapy> or any easy way to integrate KFind in Konqueror so that we don't have to search the origin folder again...
[10:38] <robotgeek> snapy: not sure, might be very possible something exists
[10:39] <snapy> ok
[10:43] <ragna> thx _mindspind !!!! :)
[10:43] <ragna> it works ^^
[10:43] <ragna> (:
[10:49] <_mindspin> I'll have another try: does anyone know why my interface entries in /etc/network/interfaces are "vanish" i.e. the nameserver entry vanishes at reboot ?
[10:49] <_mindspin> no matter if I edit it via kcontrol or by hand
[10:49] <_mindspin> the behavoiur appeard since my last uodate
[10:53] <spiritz> _mindspin: dns nameservers?
[10:53] <FallenCipher> hi @ all
[10:53] <_mindspin> spiritz: yes
[10:54] <_mindspin> I'm running a local dns server
[10:54] <_mindspin> and this entry vanishes at boot
[10:54] <spiritz> _mindspin: ok sorry I have no clue
[10:54] <_mindspin> so I have to add it every time I boot....
[11:27] <uniq> _mindspin: the nameserver you use vanishes at reboot? - do you use DHCP or static IP?
[11:27] <_mindspin> static
[11:29] <uniq> nameservers are set in /etc/resolv.conf
[11:30] <_mindspin> they are set correctly there
[11:30] <uniq> ok. what's in  /etc/network/interfaces ? is it blank?
[11:30] <_mindspin> but it resolves names only if I add them to /etc/network/interfaces
[11:30] <_mindspin> nope
[11:31] <_mindspin> uniq: wanna have alook?
[11:31] <uniq> _mindspin: can you paste your /etc/network/interfaces to http://kubuntu.pastebin.com ?
[11:33] <_mindspin> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/607089
[11:34] <uniq> ok.. looks ok.
[11:35] <_mindspin> until I reboot
[11:35] <uniq> and then what happens?
[11:35] <_mindspin> the nameserver entry is vanished
[11:35] <_mindspin> and I have to add it manually
[11:35] <uniq> ok. hang on. installing resolvconf.
[11:36] <_mindspin> "/etc/resolv.conf" seems to be untouched
[11:42] <uniq> can you do a 'ls -l /etc/resolv.conf' ?
[11:43] <uniq> is it a symlink to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf ?
[11:43] <_mindspin> nope its a file
[11:44] <uniq> ok delete the file.
[11:44] <uniq> or, don't.
[11:44] <slow-motion> hallo
[11:44] <_mindspin> what now ? delete or dont or rename?
[11:44] <uniq> just do: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow resolvconf'
[11:45] <_mindspin> resolveconf is not installed
[11:45] <uniq> uh.. ok.
[11:45] <_mindspin> typo
[11:46] <_mindspin> no
[11:46] <_mindspin> resolvconf is not installed
[11:46] <uniq> then the dns-nameservers entry in /etc/network/interfaces shouldn't work.
[11:46] <_mindspin> so sudo apt-get install resolvconf ?
[11:46] <uniq> the /etc/resolv.conf settings should be the ones used.
[11:47] <uniq> no, you don't need it.
[11:47] <_mindspin> they should but they aren't
[11:47] <uniq> just comment out the # dns-nameservers settings in /etc/network/interfaces. and restart networking.
[11:48] <_mindspin> OK did it
[11:49] <_mindspin> now I should reboot, but I don't want right now...
[11:49] <uniq> not needed.
[11:49] <_mindspin> sure to check f its working on boot because that was the problem
[11:50] <uniq> ok. as long as the /etc/resolv.conf file isn't changed at boot. it should.
[11:51] <_mindspin> I will see
[11:51] <_mindspin> thanks at all
[12:13] <tecs> are there animnated or 3d desktops? i mean wall paperS?
[12:25] <manu_> good afternoon
[12:25] <Jelly> Hi

[12:26] <Jelly> Bye
[12:26] <manu_> where are drivers for Canon S750
[12:27] <[Vampis] > cook ubuntu ?
[12:27] <manu_> yes : Kubuntu
[12:27] <[Vampis] > i refered to jellys contribute in the chat
[12:41] <tecs> is kubuntu considered as debian/
[12:41] <tecs> ?
[12:42] <ubijtsa> tecs: {,x,k,ed}ubuntu is ubuntu
[12:42] <ubijtsa> it is very similar to Debian, but it isn't Debian
[12:42] <tecs> i see, so there is no yahoo messenger for ubuntu. k thnx
[12:43] <ubijtsa> tecs: there is gaim, kopete and centericq
[12:43] <ubijtsa> and probably half a dozen more, so there is plenty of yahoo messenger tools for ubuntu
[12:44] <tecs> well but i cant use the features of ym still. anyways thnx
[12:44] <ubijtsa> tecs: what features is that?
[12:45] <tecs> like using gaim. when i send a file to my friend it says with gaim that i have sent the file but my friend hasnt really recieved anything. and i can t use the voice chat.
[12:46] <ubijtsa> tecs: that is true, the webcam, voice chat and file xfer side of YIM is a pain
[12:47] <tecs> well again i have to live with it ehhe
[12:47] <tecs> thnx
[12:47] <ubijtsa> tecs: you could try the 0.12 beta of kopete
[12:47] <ubijtsa> that may work better
[12:48] <tecs> well i prefer using gaim, i dont like "my opinion" the feel of kopete. kinda not for me
[12:50] <ubijtsa2> fair enough
[12:51] <tecs> well thnx gtg

[02:02] <riccardo> i found help on my localized channel, thank you anyway :-)
[02:04] <dennis_p> I'm back. So has anyone managed to run 'espresso kde-ui' on live flight5?
[02:19] <dennis_p> kubuntu live flight5: sound, irc, surfing works on my AMD XP mb ASUS A7N8X-E Delux. But QTparted does not start when clicked, 'espresso kde-ui' gives permission denied /var/log/installer before even starting.
[02:19] <dennis_p> ping Riddell
[02:19] <Riddell> dennis_p: hi
[02:19] <Riddell> are you running as root?
[02:20] <Riddell> kdesu espresso kde-ui
[02:20] <dennis_p> ah you did not say that in the announcement
[02:23] <dennis_p> Riddell: cool, back button does not work :-)
[02:24] <Riddell> dennis_p: yeah, don't try the back button
[02:24] <dennis_p> Nearest city popup menu is empty
[02:25] <Riddell> that's not implemented yet
[02:33] <_lucas> Hello
[02:34] <_lucas> Can you guys maybe check out my sources.list and tell me if it's good that way: http://rafb.net/paste/results/y4ju6X41.html
[02:35] <dennis_p> Riddell: after issuing complete format on 250GB drive it gave no featback and after a while the ui quit last konsole output: dbfilter.start
[02:36] <dennis_p> feedback
[02:37] <nalioth> _lucas: looks functional to me
[02:37] <_lucas> all right
[02:37] <_lucas> thanks
[02:37] <_mindspin> !codecs
[02:37] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
[02:37] <_lucas> I have an issue though
[02:37] <_mindspin> !mp3
[02:37] <ubotu> rumour has it, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:37] <_lucas> when I run a dist-upgrade I don't get the Amerok 1.4 beta2
[02:38] <Riddell> dennis_p: so still some issues to fix :)
[02:38] <dennis_p> ah, so it did not complete?
[02:38] <Riddell> dennis_p: thanks for testing, I'll know who to come to now when I have a new version out
[02:42] <dennis_p> Riddell: on second run it shows 3 options (added: Resize IDE1 master (hda1)) in Please prepare some space
[02:43] <Riddell> dennis_p: yes, because it recognises the new partition you have as resizable
[02:44] <dennis_p> new partition size ui underneath looks flabergasting
[02:49] <dennis_p> Resize IDE1 master and clicking next does nothing
[02:55] <Nickname> hi there, is it possible to install gnome on kubuntu ?
[02:55] <Nickname> I'd like to have both KDE and gnome..
[02:57] <Nickname> can I just install gnome through Adept ? will it come in my kdm choices ?
[02:57] <visik7> does someone use python on eclipse ?
[02:58] <mcscruff> gone-desktop
[02:58] <mcscruff> *gnome-desktop <<package name
[02:58] <Nickname> mcscruff : as simple as that ?
[02:58] <mcscruff> and yes it should be under session in kdm
[02:58] <Nickname> cool.
[02:58] <Nickname> thanks a lot.
[02:58] <mcscruff> np
[02:59] <Nickname> mcscruff : one more question :)
[02:59] <Nickname> mcscruff : is there an ongoing branch in ubuntu.. as Unstable or Testing in Debian...
[02:59] <nalioth> Nickname: ubuntu-desktop will get you a full gnome destkop
[02:59] <nalioth> Nickname: there is stable and development
[02:59] <Nickname> I'm on 5.10. I guess I'm pointing at stable.
[03:00] <Nickname> is development "stable" enough for desktop personnal use ?
[03:00] <nalioth> Nickname: the /topic in #ubuntu+1 is "do not use on production machines"
[03:01] <Nickname> oh it's just a home computer..
[03:01] <Nickname> if I find development too unstable, do I have a way to go back to stable ?
[03:01] <nalioth> Nickname: not easily
[03:02] <Nickname> nalioth : in this case you usually reinstall from CD ?
[03:02] <nalioth> Nickname: that would most likely be easiest, if you were faced with that decision
[03:02] <Nickname> ok
[03:03] <dennis_p> how can QTParted be started on live5 ?
[03:03] <Nickname> and do you find it worth to try development (is it called dapper btw ?) ?
[03:04] <Nickname> it's mostly to get firefox 1.5... I'm happy enough with everything else in stable..
[03:06] <nalioth> Nickname: you can get firefox 1.5 now
[03:06] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Nickname about firefox15
[03:06] <dennis_p> Nickname: get firefox 1.5 from http://klik.atekon.de/
[03:07] <Nickname> excellent !
[03:07] <Nickname> thanks a lot guys
[03:10] <dennis_p> also klik and test the latetst koffice beta on your stable system, and give the folks irc feedback in #koffice in 4 hours or so
[03:11] <nalioth> Nickname: i'd go with the wiki first, klik has caused some *buntu users problems
[03:19] <Nickname> thanks guys
[03:20] <Nickname> I've set up kubuntu on a sony t2xp and it works like a charm.. my only worry was to get gnome and firefox 1.5
[03:20] <Nickname> I'm really happy now
[03:20] <Nickname> :)
[03:21] <dennis_p> good
[03:21] <Nickname> well I suppose I could try to install enlightenment for the crack :)
[03:22] <Nickname> lol
[03:23] <PokerFacePenguin> anyone with a SIP address wanna help me test out my fresh ekiga install?
[03:25] <_mindspin> Nickname: did you post at heise.de today?
[03:26] <Nickname> no, why ?
[03:26] <_mindspin> I just read a post of someone who installed ubuntu on the same machine
[03:26] <_mindspin> I was just curious
[03:26] <dennis_p> I can't install from live CD. I don't see guidance in flight 5 easing the configuration of higher resolution and refresh. So I think I'll burn Kanotix instead of flight 5 installation CD. Thanks for helping see you in flight 6.
[03:27] <Nickname> I haven't published it yet.. I nearly have everything working on that T2XP....
[03:28] <Nickname> I'm trying to get the sony card reader to work..
[03:28] <Nickname> what's the name again ? .. sony something pro :)
[03:28] <Nickname> smartmedia I think.
[03:31] <Nickname> oh no.. sony memory stick pro... that still doesn't work.
[03:37] <tibs01> ello
[03:38] <tibs01> whats the command to enbale access to a mount
[03:38] <tibs01> whats set to root only
[03:40] <_jind> tibs01: is this a fat32 partition then try to add -o uid=youruserid,gui=youruserid,umask=0000 to mount
[03:40] <tibs01> no
[03:40] <tibs01> ntfs
[03:40] <tibs01> its set as /home/tibs01/<mount point>
[03:40] <tibs01> at the mo
[03:41] <tibs01> so what have i goto do to enable it accessable
[03:41] <_jind>  uid=value, gid=value and umask=value
[03:41] <_jind>               Set the file permission on the filesystem.  The umask value is given in octal.  By default, the files are
[03:41] <_jind>               owned by root and not readable by somebody else.
[03:41] <_jind> This is from the mount man page. It is valid for both fat32 and ntfs
[03:42] <tibs01> type that in termal
[03:43] <_jind> as root: mount -t ntfs /dev/hdaX /home/tibs01/ -o uid=value,gid=value,umask=0000
[03:44] <_jind> man mount covers this things just fine

[03:47] <_jind> Substitute "value" with the octal value returned with "id -u" as the user intended to use the partition. And run it from a root shell. Become root with "su -" first and try again
[03:48] <_jind> And leave the mount directory before mounting it to be sure
[03:48] <tibs01> tibs01@workstation:~$ mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /home/tibs01 -o uid=value,gid=value,umask=0000

[03:48] <tibs01> its the right pass
[03:48] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell tibs01 about sudo
[03:48] <_jind> Read what I'm writing please
[03:48] <_jind> Can anybody help him further? I got to go to work

[03:49] <simian> my company has just had a website made and it can only be accessed if you put www. infront of it
[03:49] <simian> I thought that wasn't supposed to necersary
[03:49] <laszlok> is there anyway to set the gtk theme from a script, without using the gtk_qt_engine thing
[03:49] <patrix> simian, all depends on the DNS
[03:50] <tibs01> ahh ok
[03:50] <PokerFacePenguin> simian: its an A record or a cname needed for that
[03:50] <tibs01> do i type sudo before it all
[03:50] <PokerFacePenguin> simian: cant remember which one
[03:51] <tibs01> mmmmmmmmmmmm
[03:51] <simian> PokerFacePenguin: but it's something that can be fixed right?
[03:51] <tibs01> wish i knew how to get this poxy drive working
[03:51] <PokerFacePenguin> simian: all signs point to yes :)  DNS issue
[03:52] <simian> PokerFacePenguin: lol thanks
[03:52] <_mindspin> you can add a site with newname.domainname
[03:52] <_mindspin> in httpd.conf
[03:53] <_mindspin> If you use virtual hosts
[03:53] <_mindspin> but thats apache 1.3.xxx related
[03:54] <_mindspin> I dunno how apache2 config is to be edited for that purpose
[03:57] <zblach> hi
[03:57] <zblach> quick question. kcontrol locks up when I go to add a printer. how can I get around this?
[04:01] <jeekl> Hey. I just experienced something very odd. Teasterday, I was at my school and connected my laptop (running breezy) to their network and configured synaptic to use their proxy (since I don't know how to configure network settings for apt via konsole). It didn't work then. I figured, the network didn't allow access on ftp-port or something like that and idn't think anymore about it. But now, when I was jsut about to run my daily upgrade, 
[04:01] <jeekl> gh I set back the connection to direct conn. in synaptc. Anyone have any pointers or ideas how to solve this?
[04:02] <zblach> channel is silent
[04:06] <ubijtsa> jeekl: does their proxy require authentication?
[04:07] <jeekl> ubijtsa: Yes it does.
[04:08] <ubijtsa> did you specify the proxy line as "http://user:passwd@proxy:port/" ?
[04:09] <jeekl> No, I didnt do that. Thank you. But i disabled the use of the proxy from synaptic. It still wont give me anything but 404 when I try to run update or upgrade
[04:09] <ubijtsa> ok.. it may be that you need to specify your deb/deb-src lines in sources.list to use http
[04:10] <ubijtsa> that is the default iirc, but if you have changed it
[04:10] <jjesse> !automatix
[04:10] <ubotu> somebody said automatix was unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[04:10] <bkjones> ugh. All multimedia apps broke on my dapper box when libgcc was upgraded :-/
[04:11] <ubijtsa> jeekl: if you set it through /etc/apt/apt.conf, you have to set both Acquire::http::Proxy="blahblah"; and Acquire::ftp::Proxy="blahblah";
[04:12] <jeekl> ubijtsa: But my list worked fine two days ago! It just stopped working when I brought it to school and tried to set the proxyuse in synaptic. It should work if I just disable the setting for proxy in synaptic right?
[04:12] <ubijtsa> jeekl: it should, yes.
[04:14] <jeekl> ubijtsa: Well, I checked now, and I haven't got any apt.conf. i do have a apt.conf.d which dosent say anything about proxies.
[04:14] <ubijtsa> no, apt.conf.d does other things :)
[04:14] <jeekl> Yeah, i figured so... ;-)
[04:15] <noteventime> Has someone managed to install the cg toolkit? (libcg)
[04:15] <ubijtsa> I prefer to use aptitude to the gfx apps..
[04:18] <bogo> how do I upgrade only I package/set of packages? from the 'apt-get' man I only found out how to upgrade all packages and the distro
[04:19] <ubijtsa> bogo: apt-get install pkg1 pkg2 pkg3
[04:20] <ubijtsa> bogo: if they are installed already, and can be updated, apt-get will update only those packages you tell it to install

[04:20] <ragna> ups sry
[04:21] <ragna> and thx ;)
[04:21] <ubijtsa> bogo: apt-get will also pull in pre/co-reqs
[04:21] <jeekl> ubijtsa: Here, take a look at this, I try to explain my problem a little better http://pastebin.com/607518
[04:21] <ragna> hmm maybe some can help me here too? ^^ ... i want to know why amarok cpu usage is between 5 and 90% all the time?
[04:22] <ubijtsa> jeekl: one moment
[04:22] <robotgeek> ragna: is is indexing your files
[04:23] <bogo> ubijtsa: ok thanks
[04:23] <ubijtsa> jeekl: try 'apt-get update' please
[04:24] <ubijtsa> jeekl: when you specified the proxy and tried the update, it could have marked the lists as outdated. updating them before running an upgrade should fix it
[04:25] <jeekl> I've been trying to update all the day
[04:25] <ubijtsa> bogo: np
[04:25] <jeekl> look at my pastebin
[04:25] <bkjones> is there a GUI way to set up my ubuntu box to authenticate to an LDAP server?
[04:25] <jeekl> it shows a little of the result
[04:25] <ubijtsa> jeekl: and the update fails as well?
[04:26] <jeekl> ubijtsa:  Heres my update http://pastebin.com/607528
[04:27] <jeekl> The messages are in swedish, but you'll manage,
[04:27] <ubijtsa> jeekl: considering I am swedish, yeah, I'll manage ;)
[04:28] <noteventime> Fan vad mycket svenskar ^^
[04:28] <jeekl> Svenska is the shit ;-)
[04:29] <ubijtsa> jeekl: looks like you have some sort of network issue on that box..
[04:29] <jeekl> ubijtsa: Okey, any ideas of checks to run?
[04:29] <jeekl> It has never been any problems before.
[04:30] <ubijtsa> I can easily point a browser at us.archive.ubuntu.com, and I can see some of the files your apt-get tries to fetch..
[04:30] <jeekl> Yeah, and I can too.
[04:31] <jeekl> I haven't got any connection problems at all except for apt.
[04:31] <ubijtsa> ok, so there is only an issue in your apt system..
[04:31] <jeekl> I can browse the net, chat and do whatever.
[04:31] <jeekl> Yes, it's only with apt
[04:31] <jeekl> Since yeasterday.
[04:31] <ubijtsa> if you look in  /var/lib/apt/lists/  what do you hove there?
[04:31] <ubijtsa> have evn
[04:31] <ubuntu> I am having some problems with Kubuntu. Is there anyone here that cares to help me?
[04:32] <robotgeek> ubuntu: just ask
[04:33] <ubuntu> Well, I was running Windows XP Home (eww Windows), and went to install Debian Kubuntu for use of a server.
[04:33] <ubuntu> Kubuntu will not stay on the drive. Either I need to keep the CD in the tray everytime I start-up or my drive is going bad.\
[04:33] <ubuntu> -\*
[04:34] <jeekl> ubijtsa: heres my /var/lib/apt/lists http://pastebin.com/607537
[04:35] <robotgeek> ubuntu: hmm, what do you mean by "no stya on the drive"
[04:35] <ubijtsa> jeekl: looks good.. all mine are owned root.root and perms 0644
[04:35] <ubuntu> Okay.
[04:35] <ubuntu> I installed Windows 2003 Server Corp. and the disk was bad, so I moved to Debian Kubuntu.
[04:35] <ubijtsa> jeekl: dunno why it fails for you, all looks okay
[04:36] <ubuntu> I installed and removed the disk from my DVD drive.
[04:36] <robotgeek> ubuntu: by disk, you mean hard disk?
[04:36] <ubuntu> Then re-booted and it told me to insert a system disk with an operating system on it.
[04:37] <ubuntu> When you use Kubuntu do you need to keep the disk in the tray when you are running the O/S?
[04:37] <_mindspin> no
[04:37] <ubuntu> I am going to re-boot. If you do not hear back from me then I am going to SuSE.
[04:37] <_mindspin> but if you have a live cd thats pretty normal
[04:38] <ubuntu> That is what I have.
[04:38] <_mindspin> so you'll have to install first
[04:38] <bogo> ubuntu: did you mark your partition as bootable, when you partitioned your drive?
[04:38] <ubuntu> The live disk did not give me the option to format.
[04:39] <ubuntu> It just started checking hardware and then some other shit. It was actually a quick install (well I thought it was).
[04:39] <ubuntu> RobotGeek, e-mail me at hizer@celos-secure.net
[04:39] <_mindspin> it was a no install your ubuntu is running from RAM and cd/dvd
[04:39] <ubuntu> How do I install it?
[04:39] <robotgeek> ubuntu: why?
[04:40] <noteventime> ubuntu: Get the non-live cd
[04:40] <ubuntu> Because I am going to re-boot and more than likely I will not end up back in here.
[04:40] <ubuntu> URL?
[04:40] <noteventime> same page as the live
[04:40] <ubuntu> Okay.
[04:40] <noteventime> !livecd
[04:40] <ubuntu> Going out for a smoke. I will be back.
[04:41] <noteventime> !tell ubuntu about livecd

[04:42] <noteventime> 'ello
[04:42] <yura_> hi

[04:47] <noteventime> okk

[04:53] <Snake__> Mornin folks
[04:53] <simian> is there a problem with adept notifier (dapper)
[04:53] <Snake__> Oooo adept has a notifer in dapper?
[04:54] <simian> it starts automaticall and I have to kill it in order to use apt-get
[04:54] <Snake__> simian: are you letting it finish?
[04:54] <eric_> Hey guys, I am having a bit of trouble
[04:55] <ubuntu> Join the club!
[04:55] <Snake__> Because only one program can be using the area of install at once. (Adept and apt cant run at the same time...just as if you were running apt-get and tried to open adept: It doesnt work)
[04:55] <simian> Snake__: yes it just starts automatically and sits there all day, if you want to use any kind of apt you have to kill notifier
[04:55] <Snake__> eric_: state your problem
[04:55] <eric_> Let me reget the actuall error
[04:55] <Snake__> hmm
[04:55] <eric_> actual*
[04:55] <eric_> Its with Adept
[04:55] <Snake__> simian: not sure...:(
[04:56] <mornfall> hmm?
[04:56] <mornfall> simian: since when?
[04:56] <mornfall> simian: notifier runs as user, it has no way to lock apt database
[04:56] <mornfall> please stop spreading misinformation
[04:57] <simian> mornfall: just started today, that's why i was wondering if it's something that has been changed
[04:57] <eric_> It says, "The APT Database could not be opened! This may be cause by incorrect APT configuration orsomething similar.  Try running apt-setup and apt-get update in terminal and see if it helps to resolve the problem"
[04:57] <eric_> So I ran apt-setup
[04:57] <mornfall> simian: no, notifier did not change for weeks
[04:57] <robotgeek> this is the second time i've seen this
[04:57] <eric_> and ran all the ways it would let me
[04:57] <eric_> and then it still did the same thing
[04:58] <eric_> so I ran apt-get update
[04:58] <eric_> and it said... (just a second)
[04:58] <simian> mornfall: ok but when I go to ksysguard and kill aptnotifier the apt-get works
[04:58] <mornfall> simian: huhm?
[04:58] <simian> let me check it again
[04:58] <admrl_school> !flood
[04:58] <mornfall> simian: interesting
[04:58] <ubotu> from memory, flood is for pasting, please use http://pastebin.com , http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl or #flood here on freenode.
[04:58] <mornfall> simian: shouldn't really happen, as notifier does not even have permissions to do that
[04:59] <simian> mornfall: hang on
[04:59] <Snake__> hey admrl_school
[04:59] <mornfall> simian: it definitely runs here and i can definitely use apt
[04:59] <eric_> and it said... "E: Malformedline 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)
[04:59] <mornfall> simian: btw you don't need to kill notifier, it has a quit action in its menu
[04:59] <mornfall> eric_: okey, fix your sources.list then
[04:59] <Snake__> eric_: You have a bad sources list, replace /etc/apt/sources.list with this:

[05:00] <mornfall> eric_: sudo editor /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:00] <robotgeek> mornfall: hopefully not vim
[05:00] <mornfall> robotgeek: it's vim for me, but i have set alternatives to that :)
[05:00] <Snake__> Its nano...
[05:00] <Snake__> default is nano
[05:01] <simian> mornfall: ok now it's fine... that always happens. it tried it several times to makes sure that i wasn't missing anything.. then as soon as i bring it up here it starts wirking again
[05:01] <simian> mornfall: lol it's just like my car :/
[05:01] <mornfall> eric_: probably paste whatever you have there into pastebin and someone can help you fix it :)
[05:01] <mornfall> simian: ...
[05:02] <mornfall> simian: i won't comment on that (but i am fairly sure you were not killing notifier -- maybe hung updater or something like that)
[05:03] <eric_> I think I fixed it... if not I will past everything inhere
[05:03] <eric_> paste*
[05:03] <simian> mornfall: i'm sure you are right. I quit notifier by right clicking on it but i saw it in ksysguard.. must have been somthing else
[05:03] <eric_> in pastebin I mean
[05:05] <Snake__> arghhh
[05:05] <douglas> For the life of me I cannot get qt3 libs to work correctly. I'm trying to compile the latest wlassistant and it asks where the qt3 libs are even though I've install  libqt3-mt-dev and libqt3-mt
[05:05] <douglas> ?
[05:05] <mornfall> douglas: tried setting QTDIR?
[05:05] <douglas> mornfall: I can't find where that is on my system
[05:05] <mornfall> douglas: (something like /usr/share/qt3 IIRC, check your system for exact location)
[05:06] <Snake__> Woah
[05:06] <Snake__> Console froze
[05:06] <douglas> ah
[05:06] <douglas> ah
[05:06] <douglas> I  see now
[05:06] <mornfall> douglas: it'd contain symlinks to real installation
[05:07] <douglas> mornfall: I can't seem to figure out how to set the qtdir with scons?
[05:08] <mornfall> douglas: oh! scons!
[05:08] <mornfall> douglas: well, it's usually export QTDIR=/path/to/qt
[05:08] <mornfall> douglas: before running configure
[05:08] <douglas> ah
[05:08] <douglas> I'll try that
[05:09] <douglas> sweet
[05:09] <douglas> thanks
[05:14] <eric_> Alright, so I didnt fix my problem... so, it said I had a malformed line in line 2, I went in, fixed wht I thought I was supposed to, and I am still having the same problem
[05:14] <mornfall> eric_: url of pastebin? ;-)
[05:14] <eric_> un momento
[05:15] <mornfall> hurry up, i want to go home :)
[05:15] <Snake__> lol

[05:18] <mornfall> eric_: remove the second line
[05:19] <mornfall> eric_: it's malformed
[05:19] <mornfall> eric_: (or comment it out)
[05:19] <eric_> just totally get rid of it
[05:19] <eric_> Ok
[05:19] <eric_> thanks
[05:19] <mornfall> eric_: put # in front of it

[05:25] <bogo> is there a way to make a group join another?
[05:26] <Snake__> bogo: like a group under a group? (tree structure?)
[05:26] <bogo> I mean, instead of registering every user into all necesary groups, can I make 'users' join the 'audio', 'video' .... groups?
[05:26] <douglas> gettext is the answer by way of apt-file search msgfmt

[05:53] <robotgeek> MetaMorfoziS: edit it
[05:53] <melonipoika> i am trying to install ubuntu from a second computer, runing kubuntu.
[05:54] <melonipoika> I have configured a dhcp server and created an image of the install cd to boot from lan, but i get an error with tftp
[05:54] <melonipoika> anyone could help me?
[05:55] <HymnToLife> +helpme
[05:55] <HymnToLife> !helpme
[05:55] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[05:55] <melonipoika> the error is that when the computer where i want to install ubuntu is trying to boot, it gives an error about tftp timeout
[05:56] <HymnToLife> melonipoika> aftr insall ?
[05:56] <melonipoika> so maybe i don't have tftp well configured
[05:56] <HymnToLife> after install*
[05:56] <melonipoika> sorry?
[05:56] <HymnToLife> do you get the error after or during install ?
[05:56] <melonipoika> i installed tftpd-hpa using apt-get
[05:56] <HymnToLife> oh ok
[05:56] <HymnToLife> maybe some firewall setting
[05:57] <melonipoika> but i don't know if i have to configure it or how
[05:57] <melonipoika> i have firestarter, but i was stoping it
[05:57] <melonipoika> before trying the net booting

[06:06] <Benjamindaines> why's that?
[06:07] <mornfall> just get ipw2200
[06:07] <mornfall> ;-)
[06:07] <_jakub> how can I say KDE not to display *~ files?
[06:08] <Benjamindaines> ipw2200 will make it work?
[06:10] <mornfall> no, ipw2200 hardware works
[06:10] <Benjamindaines> oh, that doesnt help thn
[06:10] <Benjamindaines> then*
[06:10] <trappist> mornfall: just barely.  the driver is buggy as hell.
[06:11] <mornfall> Benjamindaines: ask apple to get you drivers
[06:11] <mornfall> trappist: how so?
[06:11] <rysiek|pl> yell'oh
[06:11] <mornfall> trappist: maybe you have different driver than me :)
[06:11] <trappist> mornfall: I get disconnected about once a minute.  happens to everybody here with breezy's ipw2200 driver.
[06:11] <Benjamindaines> I doubt that apple would be willing to whip up a linux driver just for me
[06:11] <mornfall> trappist: oh, well, i use debian sid = 2.6.15
[06:11] <trappist> hopefully the new driver/firmware will be squoze into dapper
[06:12] <robotgeek> Benjamindaines: it works
[06:12] <mornfall> trappist: stable, survives suspend & hibernate fine apparently
[06:12] <trappist> mornfall: yeah that's much newer with many bugfixes
[06:13] <rysiek|pl> Benjamindaines: just for you - no freaking way. but just imagine they get hundreds of thousands of requests for Linux drivers...
[06:13] <mornfall> i think there was some broadcom option for this laptop too, but ipw works :-)

[06:21] <maenty> robotgeek: YEs I'm using Ktorrent currently, that is perfectly enough for me, however I cannot transfer the torrent link from firefox to ktorrent
[06:22] <maenty> robotgeek: I choose "open with" from firefox, and then I browsed to /usr/bin and chose ktorrent from there, does not work
[06:22] <maenty> robotgeek: It does not open ktorrent
[06:23] <JohnFlux> maenty: azareus is java
[06:23] <ealm> why isn't mplayer in any of the kubuntu repositories?
[06:23] <JohnFlux> maenty: just download it from their website
[06:24] <JohnFlux> ealm: did you add the multiverse to /etc/apt/sources ?
[06:24] <JohnFlux> ealm: did you add the multiverse to /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:24] <maenty> JohnFlux: I'm trying to keep the kubuntu as pure as possible, meaning that I try to install all that I can thru apt-get
[06:24] <ealm> JohnFlux: I have multiverse yes
[06:24] <JohnFlux> ealm: what about restricted
[06:24] <maenty> JohnFlux: but if I don't find any solution how to transfer the torrent file from FireFox to KTorrent, I will do that
[06:25] <ealm> sorry not multiverse but universe
[06:25] <ealm> I have restricted yes
[06:25] <ealm> there is no multiverse to choose
[06:25] <JohnFlux> 500 http://si.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/multiverse Packages
[06:25] <JohnFlux> !multiverse
[06:25] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[06:26] <JohnFlux> maenty: when you click the link, doesn't it ask you what program to run it with
[06:30] <maenty> JohnFlux: yes
[06:30] <maenty> JohnFlux: I have options to save it or open with some program
[06:31] <ealm> are there no packages for gstreamer support in amarok?
[06:31] <Blippe> does the breezy install cd allow installing over nfs?
[06:31] <maenty> JohnFlux: there is another choice which is some "bittorrentgui" but that opens a simple separate download window for each download and I don't like it
[06:31] <Blippe> I mean, on a diskless station
[06:31] <Blippe> ktorrent
[06:31] <maenty> JohnFlux: I would like FireFox just to transfer the .torrent file to my KTorrent and I would be happy :)
[06:32] <maenty> JohnFlux: However, when I choose /usr/bin/ktorrent from the "open with" menu, it downloads the torrent but does not open ktorrent for some reason
[06:32] <Blippe> maenty, you should be able to change the settings under download in firefox to open torrents with ktorrent
[06:32] <Blippe> oh i'm quick!
[06:32] <Blippe> :D
[06:34] <maenty> Does anyone else here use KTorrent?
[06:34] <maenty> If yes, how do you transfer the .torrent file from web browser to KTorrent?
[06:38] <maenty> I installed another client, QTorrent, with that it works perfectly
[06:38] <maenty> I wonder what's wrong with KTorrent
[06:57] <mikearthur> man
[06:57] <zblach> profound
[06:57] <DevGet> men
[06:57] <mikearthur> I'm tempted to just break into the school I was doing experience in today and install edubuntu on all the machines
[06:58] <ealm> how do I get support for realaudio in kubuntu?
[06:58] <zblach> do you think he actually went?
[07:01] <_mindspin> ealm: plf
[07:01] <_mindspin> !plf
[07:01] <ubotu> it has been said that plf is the Penguin Liberation Front, see http://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf, mainly for i386 users with some packages for ppc
[07:01] <_mindspin> have alook there
[07:10] <Blippe> yeah... isn't that site on the source-o-matic?
[07:12] <Blippe> oh, sorry missed eal_s question, thought you just made a statement...
[07:21] <AnObfuscator> Can anyone tell me why applications don't appear in the KDE menu after I install them?! When I used gnome, programs I installed would appear in the Gnome Applications menu automatically, but not so much in kde... :/
[07:32] <rnd_null> does anyone have a link to where i can d/l dapper from?
[07:32] <rysiek|pl> hi there, anybody managed to make WakeOnLan work on (K)Ubuntu?
[07:32] <rysiek|pl> rnd_null: http://www.kubuntu.org ? :)
[07:33] <rnd_null> i found it right as i got your mesg....:) thanks
[07:33] <rysiek|pl> np :)
[07:33] <rysiek|pl> sooo... anybody managed to make WakeOnLan work on (K)Ubuntu? :D
[07:47] <_Mucki_> rysiek|pl:  doesnt that only depend on the mainboard/bios/nic?
[07:51] <rysiek|pl> well, I thought so too, but I had it running on Mandrake 10.1, it runs when I shutdown my box froom under Windoze, but not from Kubuntu
[07:52] <rysiek|pl> damn, how to check a module version?
[07:52] <rysiek|pl> (namely the version of the forcedeth module)
[07:52] <goldbuggie> modinfo XXXXX
[07:53] <rysiek|pl> thx
[07:53] <goldbuggie> or hmm...wait i didn't remember correcltly i think
[07:54] <rysiek|pl> well, it gets me a lot of info, but nothing that I could use to say if it's a "ForcedEth > 18" o_O
[07:54] <rysiek|pl> typo: should be: forcedeth version > 18
[07:58] <Tonio__> hi
[08:01] <Chousuke> argh.
[08:01] <Chousuke> KDE is quite slow on this machine :P
[08:01] <Chousuke> But my Family can't use fluxbox or xfce, so meh.
[08:01] <trappist> fluxbox can be made quite usable, even by families
[08:02] <trappist> takes some work though
[08:02] <Chousuke> well...
[08:02] <Chousuke> it's the apps which take most of the memory anyway
[08:02] <Chousuke> This machine has only 128MB of ram.
[08:17] <nlindblad> hmm
[08:18] <nlindblad> can't seem to get internet radio streams working properly with amaroK
[08:18] <nlindblad> According to the Wiki: "note for KDE users: Your specific configuration may require you to install the akode-mpeg package to enable mp3 playback. In Dapper, amarok needs libxine-extracodecs for mp3 support."
[08:18] <Linux_newbie> I came in at the right time, I needed help with mp3 support
[08:19] <nlindblad> on Breezy mate?
[08:19] <Linux_newbie> Yesir
[08:19] <nlindblad> then you would need gstreamer0.8-mad for a starter
[08:19] <Linux_newbie> let me open adept
[08:20] <nlindblad> (I'm not sure whether you've enabled the universe repository or not though)
[08:20] <Linux_newbie> I haven'tsonemuch of anything... this is day 2 with Linux for me
[08:20] <Linux_newbie> haven't done much*
[08:21] <nlindblad> okey, no problem, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto#head-3af7264a0e97edbc5bf039e5bdb971f46c43269a
[08:23] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: that guide is pretty obvious to me, I hope it helps you, please don't be afraid to ask questions though
[08:24] <Linux_newbie> Do I enable everything that says "universe", or just the multiverse ones?
[08:26] <Crowbar> A game (via wine) is chaning my resolution.  If the game crashes out my resolution is stuck at a low setting.  Is there a way to reset it back to the original resolution without logging out?
[08:26] <nlindblad> you'll need at least 'universe' Linux_newbie
[08:26] <nlindblad> crowbar: sure, I think it might even be possible to assign a keyboard shortcut to it
[08:27] <crowbar> I tried the xserver shortcuts.  ctrl+alt+(+)  but that hasn't ever worked in kubuntu for me.
[08:27] <crowbar> nlindblad: Do you know how to do that?  Or are you just teasing me with a solution :)
[08:28] <nlindblad> don't know how to, but I could find out :D
[08:28] <crowbar> I've been trying to track that down, but I've had no luck.
[08:30] <Linux_newbie> nlindblad: Alright, I activated them, but its not letting me add the "multiverse" line, like the wiki says
[08:31] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: is it giving you a message about why not?
[08:32] <Linux_newbie> It just won't add it, it doesn't say anything
[08:32] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: well, I think you really need it
[08:32] <Petecakes> Anyone know where I can find a good guide to mount my NTFS drive?
[08:32] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: are you afraid of terminals?
[08:32] <Linux_newbie> I think I might have got it
[08:32] <Linux_newbie> no
[08:32] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: good
[08:33] <nlindblad> Petecakes: http://ubuntuguide.org/4.10/index.html#mountunmountntfs
[08:33] <Linux_newbie> I have a friend who is fairly linux proficient, and he pulled all my terminal fears away
[08:33] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: sorry?
[08:33] <Petecakes> nlindblad; thanks.
[08:33] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: oh
[08:34] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: well, you could use: sudo -e /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:34] <Linux_newbie> nlindblind: ok
[08:35] <Linux_newbie> nlindblind: So... I just add multiverse after everywhere it says univers (where it doesnt already have it)
[08:36] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: if there isn't already lines starting with "#"s containing multiverse, if that's the case, just remove the "#"s
[08:36] <crowbar> nlindblad: the command is xrandr if someone else has the problem.  xrandr -s 0 set my resolution back to what it was originally.
[08:37] <nlindblad> crowbar: okey, good you found out, well done lad!
[08:37] <rysiek|pl> Petecakes: here ---> rysiek|pl ;)
[08:38] <Linux_newbie> nlindblad: this is gona sound really dumb... but I am not quite sure I get it... if I out it on pastebiun could you help me out?
[08:38] <DueyFinster> Hello all, I just tried Kubuntu Dapper, and noticed Adept's Green Button Updater. I cannot find/activate this in Breezy, is it in the repos in adept package?
[08:38] <Petecakes> rysiek|pl; :P
[08:38] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: of course
[08:38] <Linux_newbie> ok, just a second
[08:38] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: I'm not expecting people to understand "sources.list"
[08:38] <Petecakes> I should really get around to buying a wireless network so I can get my Kubuntu PC on the 'net.
[08:39] <rysiek|pl> Petecakes: what do you need? read or read/write?
[08:39] <nlindblad> Petecakes: make sure you get a supported one
[08:39] <nlindblad> Petecakes: although ndiswrapper works if it's not working native too
[08:39] <Petecakes> nlindblad; I've already talked it over with a guy in a computer shop near me, he suggested one and guaranteed it would work.
[08:39] <Linux_newbie> http://pastebin.com/607899
[08:39] <nlindblad> Petecakes: great guy
[08:40] <Petecakes> rysiek|pl; The guide nlindblad linked to will work, thanks anyway.
[08:40] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: okey, seems to be in order
[08:40] <rysiek|pl> Petecakes: m'kay, good luck :)
[08:40] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: either use Adept to run "fetch updates" or use "sudo apt-get update" in a terminal
[08:41] <Linux_newbie> ok
[08:41] <Linux_newbie> sounds good
[08:41] <Linux_newbie> then do I have to reboot to get mp3's to work?
[08:41] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: that makes it download the lists over what packages are available from the repositories in the file
[08:41] <Petecakes> rysiek|pl; thanks ^_^
[08:41] <Tonio__> Linux_newbie: nope
[08:41] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: it's very seldome you have to reboot
[08:41] <Linux_newbie> nlindblad: Ok, thank you very much
[08:41] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: just install the proper packages and restart your music player
[08:41] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: we're not done thouhg ;)
[08:41] <nlindblad> *though
[08:42] <Linux_newbie> ahhh
[08:42] <Linux_newbie> ok
[08:42] <Linux_newbie> I will stay then
[08:42] <Linux_newbie> nlindblad: I fetched updates and committed changes, now restart amarok?
[08:42] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: http://tinyurl.com/lkzuv
[08:43] <nlindblad> Linux_newbie: follow that link and you'll find an explanation on how to enable support for MP3
[08:43] <DueyFinster> Hello all, I just tried Kubuntu Dapper, and noticed Adept's Green Button Updater. I cannot find/activate this in Breezy, is it in the repos in adept package?
[08:43] <Snake__> nlindblad: Try this one next time :)
[08:43] <Snake__> !mp3
[08:43] <ubotu> it has been said that mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:43] <nlindblad> Snake__: okey, I'm new here
[08:43] <nlindblad> Snake__: would have saved me seconds!
[08:43] <Snake__> nlindblad: I assumed, ubotu is your friend in the world of tech support :)
[08:44] <Snake__> MP3 is a definate FAQ
[08:44] <nlindblad> yeah
[08:44] <Snake__> !love
[08:44] <ubotu> Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra, which suddenly flips over, pinning you underneath.  At night, the ice weasels come.

[08:46] <ciga> how do I view eps file?
[08:46] <nlindblad> ciga: hi
[08:46] <Linux_newbie> thanks everyone for all your help
[08:46] <Snake__> wtf is a eps file?
[08:46] <ciga> Snake__, nlindblad : hi
[08:46] <antonio_> gracias
[08:47] <ciga> photoshop creates it.
[08:47] <DueyFinster> Could someone please help? I used Kubuntu Dapper, and noticed Adept's Green Button Updater. I cannot find or activate this in Breezy. I want to be able to auto update, its a friends PC, he's not that technical, so reminding him to do "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" is not that feasible. Please?
[08:47] <Snake__> DueyFinster: There is a program call Adept Updater in the Kmenu he can use
[08:47] <jjesse> the updater is a part of the new adept, its a dapper thing which is why you cna't find in breezy
[08:48] <Snake__> DueyFinster: Kmenu --> System --> Adept Updater
[08:48] <nlindblad> DueyFinster: Dapper will have a tray icon for it
[08:49] <DueyFinster> Okay, Thanks, I'll get him to use Adept in the menu until I upgrade it. I know nlindbladthat's what I was reffering to.....Thanks all!
[08:51] <Snake__> ciga: have you tried teh gimp?
[08:51] <Dasnipa`> "teh" makes me cry
[08:52] <Snake__> Typo ;)
[08:52] <nlindblad> all interested in the release notes of Dapper (Kubuntu specific): http://doc.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/release-notes/C/index.html
[08:52] <Snake__> ciga: Yep, gimp will open it, (sudo apt-get install gimp)
[08:52] <Dasnipa`> yes. you are "teh 1337" speller hehe just playin with ya
[08:53] <Snake__> Dasnipa`: 1 4M F00|2 |2341
[08:53] <Snake__> :p

[08:54] <ciga> kghostview can view the file. thanks.
[08:54] <Snake__> Ya know, I never learned past numbers in binary
[08:54] <Dasnipa`> erm i did that wrong actually shoulda been 00101000 00101001
[08:54] <rysiek|pl> does *anybody* (wink, wink) know where I can get the sources for a module that my kernel uses?
[08:54] <Dasnipa`> well its just the ascii values in binary
[08:54] <Snake__> Yea I know
[08:54] <rysiek|pl> the module is forcedeth and I suppose it might be included in the main kernel tree, or something
[08:55] <Snake__> Dasnipa`: wtf does () mean?
[08:55] <Snake__> rysiek|pl: no :( sorry
[08:55] <rysiek|pl> darn
[08:55] <nlindblad> Snake__: () is to show something is a function
[08:56] <nlindblad> Snake__: myFunction() { more code inside the function }
[08:56] <jjs0ah> 2829h
[08:56] <Dasnipa`> hehe
[08:56] <Snake__> nlindblad: Yes I know that, but Dasnipa` sent me that in binary when I was "l337
[08:56] <nlindblad> Snake__: okey, sorry, didn't understand the context there
[08:56] <Snake__> No problem
[08:56] <Snake__> Dasnipa`: Here: 010000100110010100100000011100110111010101110010011001

[09:13] <jjs0ah> there a way to control kaffeine from the command line? play, stop, etc? i want to use it lineakd.
[09:14] <arrinmurr> jjs0ah: that should be possible with dcop
[09:17] <jjs0ah> arrinmurr: hrm. the man page is not very illuminating. where can i find information on the functions / arguments the applications expect from dcop?
[09:18] <arrinmurr> jjs0ah: haven't really used it myself. maybe google with "dcop kaffeine"? :)
[09:19] <arrinmurr> jjs0ah: errr... or "Chaper 4. The DCOP Interface Overview" in help -> kaffeine player handboo ? =)
[09:20] <jjs0ah> arrinmurr: that works. to be honest i am not used to consulting the kde help. not used to finding useful information in there
[09:21] <nico8481> hi
[09:21] <arrinmurr> jjs0ah: hehe
[09:24] <ryanakca> anybody know of a euchre game for kubuntu?
[09:25] <conn> hi, can someone tell what program to use to record a video of my desktop?
[09:26] <trappist> conn: only thing I know of is vnc2swf
[09:26] <jjs0ah> wow. how cool is dcop. can't believe i haven't been using this :)
[09:27] <trappist> jjs0ah: yeah I need to learn more about it
[09:28] <bouncing> So I'm trying Dapper, and it's great but it stopped auto-mounting my USB drive.
[09:40] <tomcatt> !tell ati
[09:47] <conn> can someone tell me what program I can use to record my desktop to a video file?
[09:51] <nlindblad> conn: xnee
[09:51] <timas> yello?
[09:51] <timas> woo, werks
[09:51] <nlindblad> hi timas
[09:52] <timas> Can I ask a quick question after just barging in like this?
[09:52] <conn> nlindblad: no, I mean to record to an .avi file, not to record/replay session data
[09:52] <nlindblad> "xnee - X event recorder/replayer"
[09:54] <conn> nlindblad: it records X events, not the screen, it's useless
[09:54] <nlindblad> oh
[10:04] <zax1> any one really familiar with wamp ? or know irc channel for it ?
[10:04] <nlindblad> wild guess, #wamp
[10:04] <nlindblad> too wild
[10:04] <zax1> no none
[10:05] <zax1> nli are you familiar with it
[10:05] <nlindblad> nope
[10:05] <nlindblad> sorry
[10:05] <zax1> :\
[10:05] <zax1> thanks neway
[10:13] <leafw> can anyone tell me why the Dapper live CD for PowerPC is 718 MB long and DOESN'T FIT on a CD ?
[10:14] <Skrot> Hi. I've got a laptop that requires a modified DSDT-table for ACPI and APIC to work. Is there any way (k)ubuntu can include that to their kernel or something like that in order to get it working without me compiling my own kernel? =)
[10:14] <leafw> can't test it!
[10:14] <slow-motion> hallo
[10:15] <timas> yello
[10:16] <fatejudger> is there a way to enable transparency in one Kicker panel and disable it in another?
[10:18] <osh_> Has anyone gotten compiz to work in flight5?
[10:19] <fatejudger> osh_: haven't tried
[10:19] <osh_> fatejudger: don't think so. it's the same kicker afaik.
[10:19] <fatejudger> osh_: I don't think it works with the fglrx drivers
[10:19] <fatejudger> osh_: you can give both of them two different sizes
[10:20] <timas> no GL for me :(  Always had the coolest 3D cards untill this machine.. now I've got a sweet AGP card laying around but no slot .. this one's got IDE express..
[10:21] <fatejudger> timas: you mean PCI Express
[10:21] <timas> >_<
[10:21] <timas> yes
[10:22] <timas> pin it on a shortage of sleep.. Dapper's fault :)
[10:22] <timas> too much fun playing around
[10:22] <fatejudger> heh
[10:22] <fatejudger> I've been trying to fix Dapper myself
[10:22] <fatejudger> they uglified Flight 5
[10:22] <fatejudger> I hear they're in the process of fixing it
[10:22] <leafw> can anyone tell me why the Dapper live CD for PowerPC is 718 MB long and DOESN'T FIT on a CD ?
[10:22] <fatejudger> leafw: overburn?
[10:22] <leafw> fatejudger: and then it will be readable in old powermacs? No way
[10:23] <fatejudger> leafw: should be
[10:23] <fatejudger> how do I get a "Trash" icon on my desktop?
[10:23] <fatejudger> I can't seem to find it
[10:23] <leafw> fatejudger: the trash is a kind of applet or somwthing
[10:23] <fatejudger> leafw: not in the kicker
[10:23] <fatejudger> leafw: on the desktop
[10:24] <leafw> I don't know fatejudger , I don't even use a desktop.
[10:24] <fatejudger> ??
[10:24] <timas> nah
[10:25] <timas> make a html link fatejudger
[10:25] <timas> link it to 'trash:/'
[10:25] <timas> there's your trash can :)
[10:25] <fatejudger> timas: yeah, that's what I though
[10:25] <leafw> that's what I meant: a protocol, not an "applet"
[10:25] <fatejudger> or system:/trash
[10:25] <leafw> like media:/
[10:25] <osh_> fatejudger: I don't use the fglrx-drivers. It don't play well with my laptop. Suspend won't work then and that's something I really like/need. More than accelX.
[10:26] <fatejudger> osh_: I have to use the fgrlx, the mesa drivers are too slow, and at this point XGL doesn't work with fgrlx drivers in KDE
[10:27] <timas> curious: does Xgl actually make your machine faster by letting the GPU do the hard graph work?
[10:28] <leafw> timas: let's say that it enables your machine to do fancy 3D stuff. It won't get any faster
[10:29] <leafw> by the way, compiz + xgl + xorg7.0 + baghira and the likes ... lots of nice stuff comming up for linux/bsd
[10:29] <ryanakca> anybody know of a euchre game for kubuntu?
[10:31] <fatejudger> leafw: maybe for the Gnome people, XGL is slow to make it to KDE
[10:32] <leafw> fatejudger: within the year we may have an awesome desktop. *Then* I'll switch from using the desktop as I do now, which is a nice background with a couple of xterms
[10:33] <fatejudger> I can't believe that development on something as wonderful as XGL isn't primary on KDE
[10:34] <MasterWolf> hi
[10:35] <timas> hello
[10:36] <MasterWolf> i was wondering if the perminat install will remove any prevouse OS like windows
[10:38] <MasterWolf> does any 1 know
[10:40] <MasterWolf> dose anyone know if the perminat install will remove any prevouse OS like windows
[10:41] <fatejudger> MasterWolf: depends on how you partition your HD
[10:41] <MasterWolf> how do u do that
[10:41] <fatejudger> you don't know how to partition your hard drive?
[10:42] <MasterWolf> i dont
[10:42] <fatejudger> do you even know what partitioning is?
[10:44] <fatejudger> !samba

[10:46] <HymnToLife> pas la bonne IP ce con
[10:46] <HymnToLife> oops
[10:46] <HymnToLife> sorry :p
[10:46] <fatejudger> lol
[10:46] <PokerFacePenguin> I think !dualboot would probably work for him better
[10:47] <simian> is there a way to get nvidia drivers working with dapper
[10:47] <rysiek|pl> what nvidia drivers?
[10:47] <rysiek|pl> network, sound, gfx?..
[10:48] <simian> i'm talking about 3d
[10:48] <rysiek|pl> !nvidia
[10:48] <ubotu> nvidia is, like, totally, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[10:48] <leafw> the powerpc live CD image for dapper flight 5 does not fit in a CD not even overburning,
[10:48] <rysiek|pl> !tell simian about nvidia
[10:48] <rysiek|pl> cu all, gtg
[10:48] <simian> but they don't apply to dapper do they?
[10:49] <simian> bye
[10:49] <leafw> write track data: error after 736905216 bytes
[10:49] <Red_Herring> dapper nvidia drivers arent working as far as i know
[10:49] <Red_Herring> :-(
[10:52] <simian> shame
[10:52] <simian> i suppose it wont be long though
[10:53] <ryanakca> I know this is kinda off topic/wrong channel, but how do you import comtacts from gmail into thunderbird?
[10:53] <Red_Herring> google
[10:53] <Red_Herring> google it*
[10:55] <ryanakca> Red_Herring: I've followed the instructions, yet it gives me an address book with about 30 blank entries :S
[10:55] <Red_Herring> lol, sorry, i dunno whats wrong with it
[10:55] <timas> Gota go peoples, thanks for the lessons, be back again later :)
[10:55] <Red_Herring> simian: dapper has kernel updates every few days or so, and the NVIDIA drivers need to be reinstalled every update
[10:56] <Red_Herring> so i guess thats why no one has bothered to fix it
[10:58] <simian> oh that makes sence
[10:58] <simian> Red_Herring: thanks
[11:11] <Tachyon> My desktop seems to be stuck at 1024x768 even though I use 1280x800 o_O  (and it looks terrible at 1024x768).  There's no option for 1280x800 when I try to change it through the GUI.  Is the a CLI way to force it into 1280x800?
[11:13] <White_Herring> Tachyon: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:13] <White_Herring> go through it normally, at the end is the monitor setup
[11:15] <Tachyon> White_Herring: Should I enable the "kernel framebuffer device interface"?
[11:15] <White_Herring> Tachyon: i dont suggest it
[11:16] <White_Herring> but it should be fine w/o it
[11:16] <White_Herring> or with it
[11:19] <Tachyon> White_Herring: Nothing happened . . .
[11:20] <White_Herring> did you restart X?
[11:21] <Tachyon> >_<
[11:21] <Petecakes> Hey Tach... :P
[11:22] <fatejudger> what's the best way to do sound mixing in dapper?
[11:22] <fatejudger> is dmix working?
[11:28] <heinkel_111> where is the best place to look for how-to-guides on mounting my digicam to the kubuntu system?
[11:28] <heinkel_111> i have USB connection
[11:29] <heinkel_111> it is a olympus mju digital 500
[11:29] <White_Herring> i dunno, ubuntuforums.org
[11:29] <White_Herring> thats where i would look
[11:30] <tsdgeos> heinkel_111: use digikam
[11:30] <tsdgeos> no need to mount the camera
[11:30] <fatejudger> tsdgeos: ditto
[11:30] <heinkel_111> digikam = application?
[11:30] <fatejudger> heinkel_111: yes
[11:30] <morzel> hi all
[11:30] <heinkel_111> adept then, right?
[11:30] <morzel> is somewhere an irc channel for dapper?
[11:31] <White_Herring> uhhh, here?
[11:32] <leafw> morzel: there is
[11:32] <leafw> the #ubuntu-1 or something like that
[11:32] <joh6nn> anyone know where i'd go to report that the dependencies for a package need to be update
[11:32] <White_Herring> !dapper
[11:32] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[11:32] <joh6nn> updated*
[11:33] <morzel> thx
[11:40] <heinkel_111> tsdgeos: digikam is not able to detect my camera :(
[11:40] <heinkel_111> it is in the list of avilable cameras but not recognized anyhow
[11:40] <tsdgeos> oop
[11:40] <tsdgeos> s
[11:40] <heinkel_111> methinks it must be better to get it mounted
[11:40] <fatejudger> weirdness
[11:41] <fatejudger> shouldn't matter
[11:41] <fatejudger> maybe you're doing something wrong
[11:41] <tsdgeos> heinkel_111: you have libgphoto installed, rihgt?
[11:41] <fatejudger> I have a card reader on my monitor, so I wouldn't know how to use digikam
[11:41] <heinkel_111> most likely i am doing soething wrong
[11:41] <heinkel_111> libgphoto came along with digikam i think
[11:41] <heinkel_111> digikam is dependent on libgphoto right?
[11:42] <heinkel_111> i think it was correctly set up in the package manager
[11:43] <heinkel_111> confirmed
[12:02] <rysiek|pl> guys, anybody knows where I can disable the autostarting of Konqueror and/or KsCD upon inserting a CD/inserting an USB pendrive? (in Breezy/KDE3.4.3)
