[12:13] <ubotu> a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components.  To install: "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org".
[12:14] <lupine_85> !info openoffice2 edgy
[12:14] <ubotu> Package openoffice2 does not exist in edgy
[12:14] <ubuntu> iam using a ubuntu live cd now
[12:14] <ubuntu> my windows is not working at all
[12:14] <ubuntu> iam getting blue screens so its kinda wonderfull i can get on linux
[12:15] <fleissigfiona> !info openoffice dapper
[12:15] <ubotu> Package openoffice does not exist in dapper
[12:17] <gnomefreak> !info openoffice.org
[12:17] <ubotu> openoffice.org: OpenOffice.org Office suite version 2.0. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.2-2ubuntu12.1 (dapper), package size 1 kB, installed size 24 kB (Only available for amd64 ia64)
[12:17] <fleissigfiona> can anyone help? i have some programs which i think i got through adept. they don't show up on the menu even though they are gui, cos i think adept kind of bummed the last bit due to an error, does anyone know how to get them onto the menu?
[12:18] <gnomefreak> fleissigfiona: that would depends on the program and hwo you got it
[12:18] <Teller> Hi! How do I change my locale?
[12:18] <lupine_85> " (Only available for amd64 ia64)" is that right...?
[12:19] <gnomefreak> lupine_85: yeah ia 64 i think is the *86 kernels (not sure if its built for ppc but i thought it was
[12:20] <pete_> i am having mad problems with wireless, what happens if my card is not listed with the ndiswrapper people? where should i look now?
[12:20] <OOD> ia64 is the Itanium 64-bit processor, there isn't any port to Itanium-64
[12:21] <OOD> any ubuntu port*
[12:21] <sean> pete:- what's the card?
[12:22] <pete> sean: Could you please say pete_ as to avoid pinging me?
[12:22] <pete> You got my hopes up for a second =P
[12:22] <fleissigfiona> gnomefreak: through adept
[12:22] <gnomefreak> fleissigfiona: still doesnt tell me anything
[12:22] <gnomefreak> fleissigfiona: what programs?
[12:23] <fleissigfiona> im not really sure as i cant see them to know what they are
[12:23] <fleissigfiona> never mind
[12:29] <pete_> sean: sorry i was away for a second, the card is a ralink 2500
[12:30] <pete_> sean: i read that the rt2400 drivers may work, but i am reluctant to try those drivers because they require that i upgrade my kernel
[12:30] <lupine_85> pete
[12:31] <lupine_85> the rt2x00 drivers require you to update your kernel. The legacy drivers work fine on 2.6.15
[12:31] <lupine_85> there is even a repo :p
[12:31] <shadowraven> is there a command that will let me save all the irc channels i have so they will come up when i start IRC?
[12:31] <gnomefreak> shadowraven: what irc cllient?
[12:32] <shadowraven> konversation
[12:32] <lupine_85> put them into auto-join
[12:32] <gnomefreak> shadowraven: you should beable to edit the config file to autojoin
[12:32] <gnomefreak> or easier if there is an autojoin section :)
[12:33] <pete_> lupine_85: i googled legacy drivers and i am still unclear about what that means, what should type in to get more info?
[12:33] <gnomefreak> pete_: nvidia legacy drivers
[12:33] <lupine_85> legacy drivers are the ones called, rt2400, rt2500, rt2570, rt61
[12:33] <pete_> ah ok
[12:33] <lupine_85> the new drivers are all dealt with by "rt2x00"
[12:33] <pete_> off of serial monkey?
[12:33] <lupine_85> yep
[12:33] <pete_> ok
[12:33] <pete_> ty
[12:33] <lupine_85> use the CVS, not the betas
[12:33] <steveire> where should my firefox extensions be?
[12:34] <steveire>   /usr/lib/something?
[12:35] <steveire> ah, they're under ~/.mozilla
[12:39] <stephan___> salut
[12:40] <stephan___> y'as des francais dans le coin

[12:40] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[12:50] <unix_infidel> why is it that when i do ls -la | grep folder the folder size is 4096 instead of the true size of the folder?
[12:50] <unix_infidel> true folder size being reported by konq.
[12:53] <lupine_85> unix_infidel: because the directory is a file
[12:53] <lupine_85> use du -hs instead
[12:54] <unix_infidel> lupine_85: thanks.
[12:54] <unix_infidel> the more i learn about *nix the less i find out i know :)
[12:55] <D4m4ge> hi
[12:55] <D4m4ge> !swsusp2
[12:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swsusp2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:05] <jpiccolo_> anyone help me get phpmyadmin up?
[01:05] <troy> hola folks - just did dist-upgrade to edgy, everything seems to be working fine (for me) - but, apt held back 27 packages (mostly python modules) - and won't upgrade them - what do I do to force it to update?

[01:18] <DollyD> anyone know about a great wifi program?
[01:19] <Torched> my microwave is a great wifi program
[01:20] <lupine_85> rutilt
[01:20] <lupine_85> not in the repos though
[01:20] <xJPM100x> sup eveyone
[01:20] <xJPM100x> everyone*
[01:20] <lupine_85> the networking module of system settings does an ok job
[01:23] <unix_infidel> how can i get gtk-engines to work correctly with gtk apps when i havent installed gnome-desktop
[01:23] <unix_infidel> i've creatd the proper entry in .gtkrc-2.0
[01:25] <unix_infidel> anyone?
[01:31] <sync00> Ok, so I am having trouble installing my printer.  I was in here before, and was told to go to system - settings - printers, but I have no printers option in either system or settings
[01:35] <|lostbyte|> sync00, i think they meant KMENU > System Settings > Printers
[01:35] <sync00> is KMENU not the big K in the lower left of the screen?
[01:35] <sync00> lol I'm such a noob
[01:35] <|lostbyte|> yes that K
[01:36] <sync00> well, there is no system settings, there is a system, and a settings, but neither contain Printers
[01:37] <lupine_85> then go to 'run command...' and run 'kcontrol'
[01:37] <Junis> sync00: yuy mas have System Preferences on Kmenu
[01:38] <|lostbyte|> sync00, after what lupine_85 said, Peripherals > Printers
[01:38] <sync00> lupine_85 THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! *hugs* :p
[01:38] <sync00> hehe, thanks guys :)
[01:40] <Torched> someone go write some drivers for my printer
[01:40] <Torched> chop fucking chop
[01:42] <lupine_85> www.turboprint.de
[01:44] <ryanakca> Torched: that's not really the best way to get cooperation...
[01:45] <Torched> you're wasting keystrokes ryanakca
[01:45] <ryanakca> I am :)
[01:50] <benh> I'm having weird troubles updating to 3.5.4 on dapper
[01:50] <benh> some packages are kept back due to missing dependencies
[01:51] <benh> and I've lost anti-aliasing of text everywhere
[01:51] <zorglu_> q. is there a nice tool to config the firewall on kubuntu ?
[01:52] <benh> amarok isn't installable neither (1.4.3)
[01:52] <benh>   amarok: Depends: libvisual-0.4-0 (>= 0.4.0) but it is not installable
[01:52] <benh> are the packages on kubuntu.org busted ? on ppc maybe ?
[01:52] <ryanakca> zorglu_: You usually don't need a firewall on Linux, but if you really want to set one up. just a sec
[01:53] <ryanakca> benh: go "sudo apt-get install libvisual-0.4-0"
[01:54] <benh> ryanakca: nope
[01:54] <benh> Package libvisual-0.4-0 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[01:54] <benh> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[01:54] <benh> is only available from another source
[01:54] <benh> E: Package libvisual-0.4-0 has no installation candidate
[01:54] <benh> benh@tika:~$
[01:54] <benh> would have been too easy :)
[01:54] <ryanakca> no clue, and please use pastebin next time :)
[01:54] <benh> am I missing a source ? I have dapper, dapper-updates, dapper-security
[01:54] <benh> and
[01:54] <benh> deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-354 dapper main
[01:54] <benh> deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/amarok-143 dapper main
[01:54] <benh> deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/koffice-152 dapper main
[01:54] <benh> pastebin for only 3 lines ? heh
[01:55] <ryanakca> well, are you using konversation?
[01:55] <benh> yes
[01:55] <zorglu_> riding the edge, hence you frequently fall ? :)
[01:55] <ryanakca> then you should have a dialog that pops up saying "you are pasting more than 1 line, cancel or edit". Select edit, and you can put it all on one line...
[01:56] <benh> heh, thanks, but I'm been around irc long enough... I just don't see the point of going to pastebin for a handful of lines
[01:56] <benh> it's not like I was pasting an Xorg.0.log :)
[01:56] <benh> anyway
[01:56] <benh> there seem to be some package brokenness there, though it might be a ppc specific issue, just wondering if somebody here had a clue
[01:57] <ryanakca> zorglu_: might want to look into the packages 'fwbuilder' 'fireflier-client-kde' 'guarddog' and 'kmyfirewall'
[01:57] <zorglu_> ok thanks :) i keep it for the log, tomorrow first thing :)
[01:57] <ryanakca> np
[01:58] <zorglu_> ryanakca: somepeople just tried dictionary attack on my ssh, i dont want it to go on :)
[01:58] <ryanakca> ouch... iptables maybe?
[01:58] <ryanakca> zorglu_: or no... kmyfirewall is your best bet... a nice front end for iptables
[01:58] <zorglu_> yep they will all do iptable :)
[01:58] <zorglu_> ok will do , now sleep :)
[01:58] <zorglu_> have fun :)
[01:58] <ryanakca> lol, cheers
[02:00] <benh> ryanakca: do you have this libvisual version installed ? can you tell me from which pool it comes ? the amarok pool itself doesn't have it (I'm checking on kubuntu.org atm)
[02:00] <benh> doh !
[02:00] <benh> ok
[02:00] <benh> it's in 1.4.2 pool but not in 1.4.3
[02:00] <benh> so you are supposed to -add- those source.list entries instead of replacing them ? weirdo
[02:01] <ryanakca> no clue... I have it installed... I'm running edgy...
[02:01] <benh> yeah, I'm pondering updating to edgy
[02:02] <ryanakca> go for it...
[02:02] <ryanakca> just make sure to back up :)
[02:02] <ryanakca> and make sure you can live without a computer for a couple of days if something goes wrong
[02:03] <benh> I suppose I can do that, just need to salvage a couple of things from /usr/local
[02:04] <unix_infidel> anyone know how i can get gtk icon themes to work in ubuntu without having gnome installed.
[02:04] <unix_infidel> ??
[02:04] <unix_infidel> i've made the proper entries in .gtkrc-2.0

[02:10] <Chani> so nice when I can get a solution just by following links in the topic :)
[02:10] <Dr_willis> :)
[02:10] <Dr_willis> Hmm. I just noticed the icons on the desktop. the fonts are black text with white outlines.

[02:30] <j2daosh> im just going to use it for storage and ftp site
[02:30] <Kyral> It shouldn't matter how fast it was burned
[02:30] <Kyral> as long as it was a good burn
[02:30] <qu1ckfr0st> what program do you use to watch movies?
[02:30] <j2daosh> it didn't take one at 48

[02:32] <j2daosh> i hate solaris....
[02:33] <j2daosh> its ugly and uncooperative
[02:33] <j2daosh> is solaris considered linux or unix?
[02:33] <unix_infidel> unix.
[02:33] <unix_infidel> heh, you hate solaris b/c its ugly?
[02:33] <j2daosh> figures
[02:33] <CVirus> j2daosh: FGI
[02:33] <unix_infidel> try working with AIX :p
[02:33] <j2daosh> lol i have at work
[02:33] <j2daosh> its uglier
[02:34] <j2daosh> but whats just as ugly is tru 64
[02:34] <unix_infidel> gonna actually see if i can get down with freebsd for some actual work.
[02:34] <j2daosh> lol but the system that really took the cake at work for being the all time pos is DGuiX
[02:35] <j2daosh> nothing like a 1970 bank system lol
[02:35] <j2daosh> made in 1980
[02:35] <unix_infidel> nice.
[02:35] <j2daosh> that pos is so old it still has reel 2 reel tapes
[02:36] <unix_infidel> ok, this is bad, less than 50MB left on 512MB stystem.
[02:36] <Torched> lots of people still use reel to reel
[02:36] <unix_infidel> multitasking in windows is NOT fun.
[02:36] <j2daosh> lol thats why u use *nix
[02:36] <j2daosh> then you can get something done
[02:36] <j2daosh> without the overhead of the OS
[02:36] <menace> Does kubuntu linux come with Yast?
[02:36] <unix_infidel> j2daosh: nah, i've been using a lot of windows specific software lately.
[02:36] <crimsun> menace: no
[02:36] <j2daosh> and the spyware that comes installed on windows systems lol
[02:36] <Torched> no
[02:36] <flaccid_> !yast
[02:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about yast - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:36] <Torched> !yeast
[02:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about yeast - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:37] <unix_infidel> j2daosh: i havent had ANY spyware or malware or bugs on any of my win32 systems in almost a year.
[02:37] <zor0> I think yast is strictly SuSE
[02:37] <Torched> ubuntu can't even make bread
[02:37] <j2daosh> lol windows is spyware
[02:37] <unix_infidel> j2daosh: not like i run it.
[02:37] <zor0> heh, with genuine advantage, it is
[02:37] <flaccid_> windows is malware
[02:37] <unix_infidel> j2daosh: i run windows CE and then build on top of that :)
[02:37] <unix_infidel> BOOYAH1
[02:37] <j2daosh> good man
[02:37] <j2daosh> lol
[02:37] <unix_infidel> its like NFS for the soul.
[02:37] <flaccid_> time to make coffee
[02:37] <flaccid_> its fuckin cold
[02:37] <unix_infidel> erm, LFS*
[02:38] <flaccid_> oops sorry bout language
[02:38] <zor0> I run XP and then install counter strike on it, and then reinstall it every 4 months when it forks itself
[02:38] <j2daosh> windows wouldn't have so many damn security holes if they wouldn't purposely leave holes in their shit for them to get in to your comp with
[02:38] <menace> Is there a program that is like yast for kubuntu?
[02:38] <Torched> why would you want to play counterstrike?
[02:38] <zor0> flaccid_ : 1.6 is $10 now :)
[02:39] <zor0> torched: becuase counterstrike is teh skit?
[02:39] <Torched> it's teh skeet
[02:39] <j2daosh> just play americas army
[02:39] <Torched> just don't play FPS....
[02:39] <j2daosh> its like counter strike but the us army made it and its free
[02:39] <zor0> hm, I've been meaning to try it
[02:39] <j2daosh> what is fps? i saw a movie of this dude playing it (funny as hell when he got headshot)
[02:39] <zor0> but cs 1.6 has a special place on my hard disk :P
[02:40] <Torched> what j2daosh
[02:40] <j2daosh> lol well not aa2.7 can take its place
[02:40] <j2daosh> what does fps stand for?
[02:40] <Torched> first person shooter...
[02:40] <j2daosh> oh...
[02:40] <j2daosh> nevermind
[02:40] <j2daosh> thought that was a game name
[02:40] <Torched> do less drugs kid
[02:40] <zor0> oh, whoever was asking about yast, what yast functionality do you want?
[02:41] <j2daosh> there was a video of this guy playing battlefield or someHELL YES!!!!
[02:41] <j2daosh> ubuntu on sparc... oh happy days
[02:41] <Torched> what's so good about that
[02:41] <zor0> lol, why sparc? whats is the advantage of sparc over the usual x86?
[02:42] <Torched> he doesn't know
[02:42] <j2daosh> the fact that my sparc server isn't going to waste now
[02:42] <j2daosh> lol
[02:42] <j2daosh> i hate solaris
[02:43] <Torched> why do you have a sparc server
[02:44] <j2daosh> because i wanted a cheap server so a guy i worked with gave me his e3k and ultrasparc60 for free
[02:44] <warpzone> pardon, are there no restricted modules for the 2.6.15.-27.386 kernel?
[02:45] <Torched> what's the server for j2daosh
[02:45] <j2daosh> ftp and storage
[02:45] <Torched> how much capacity does it have
[02:46] <j2daosh> 1.5 gig of ram, 10 73gig scsi drives 6 procs
[02:46] <Torched> he gave you that
[02:46] <j2daosh> yep :)
[02:46] <BluDog_Anchorite> gebus
[02:46] <Torched> there's more to that story
[02:46] <BluDog_Anchorite> nice snag
[02:46] <Torched> and i don't think it's family oriented
[02:46] <zor0> wow, thats impressive
[02:47] <Torched> so i'll just stop asking
[02:47] <j2daosh> yeah... he just bought a 2100 sun server
[02:47] <j2daosh> $2100
[02:47] <Torched> you could run a full on website on that
[02:47] <zor0> at my work they had this old quad 500MHz xeon server, my production box now :)  nothing beats a good raid 5 array
[02:47] <Torched> on what you have
[02:47] <j2daosh> that and he has old alpha systems, xeon servers

[02:58] <Jucato> :P
[02:58] <unix_infidel> Jucato: in my book its the same thing.
[02:58] <flaccid_> nexuiz is wack!
[02:58] <unix_infidel> i dont use kde or ubuntu
[02:59] <Jucato> ???
[02:59] <unix_infidel> erm kde or gnome.
[02:59] <unix_infidel> :P
[02:59] <unix_infidel> multitasking on two computers at the same time.
[02:59] <Jucato> heh, well your book is not the the same as the default book the rest of us mere mortals use :P
[03:00] <Torched> what do you use?
[03:03] <benh> nobody else experiences loss of anti aliasing of text with the kubuntu.org kde3.5.4 packages on dapper ?
[03:04] <flaccid> off-topic, but i'm stuck. trying to find the mailman modification to allow duplicate naming of lists across vhosts. anyone know where it is. meant to be on sourceforge

[03:11] <gnomefreak> Jucato: you here?
[03:11] <marcelloDoItBeTt> hi
[03:11] <benh> Jucato: it's broken without subpixel hinting ?
[03:11] <benh> Jucato: I have anti aliasing enabled but I keep subpixel hinting off for performances
[03:12] <marcelloDoItBeTt> is there a list of repository ?? becouse i can't download anything from my defaults repositories
[03:12] <Jucato> gnomefreak: just got back
[03:12] <Jucato> benh: I think so. I'm not 100% sure
[03:12] <benh> Jucato: indeed
[03:12] <gnomefreak> Jucato: know a email notifier that can handle multiple email addresses i tried email-notifacation and its eh
[03:12] <benh> (no need to restart X, just start an app)
[03:12] <Jucato> marcelloDoItBeTt: have you enabled the repositories?
[03:13] <Jucato> gnomefreak: um.. KMail? :P
[03:13] <marcelloDoItBeTt> maybe no
[03:13] <marcelloDoItBeTt> how can i do that
[03:13] <gnomefreak> Jucato:  a notifier not a client :)
[03:13] <benh> Jucato: actually...
[03:13] <Jucato> !repositories > marcelloDoItBeTt
[03:13] <benh> Jucato: I re-disabled subpixel hinting and it still works
[03:13] <Jucato> gnomefreak: heh sorry... I'm not an "e-mail" type of guy. :P
[03:13] <Jucato> benh: even with new apps?
[03:13] <Jucato> that's cool
[03:13] <benh> Jucato: must be a glitch with the saved settings when upgrading from 3.5.3
[03:13] <benh> let me double check
[03:14] <benh> I might have been a bit quick
[03:14] <Beebop> I'm working with the Linksys Wireless-G USB Compact Adapter ...
[03:14] <Beebop> It's, uh, WUSB54GC.
[03:14] <benh> yeah, it seems to stick
[03:14] <benh> bbl
[03:14] <Beebop> Working under Kubunu, is dniswapper the best way to install/work it?
[03:18] <Dr_willis> Warsaw and alienarena2007 are some good Free FPS' also :P
[03:27] <josh__> i am trying to back everything up

[03:42] <Jucato> hm.. that's not very helpful...
[03:43] <Momal> Just curious has anyone set up xgl/compiz on kde with an nvidia card with drivers from the nvidia website?
[03:43] <Momal> and have it working with titles bars and all ?
[03:45] <thompa> how do i mount a hard drive i plugged in, its ext with no boot loader?
[03:45] <thompa> i made a media/ext-extra dir
[03:46] <thompa> im using edgy actually
[03:46] <Dr_willis> mount /dev/whatever /media/whever
[03:46] <Dr_willis> or edit the fstab file.
[03:47] <Dr_willis> learning the ins and outs of the fstab and mount commands is a top 10 linux thing to learn. :)
[03:48] <thompa> ive done it but its not working
[03:48] <thompa> im getting some weird hidden folders with wrong file size stuff
[03:49] <thompa> i shoulde be able to just put that in fstab, then mount it
[03:49] <david> whatshe other 9?
[03:49] <thompa> or am i missing something
[03:50] <bobbyyu> Guys, I install the Java compiler in my Linux box, now I'm having trouble with setting it to run from any directory
[03:50] <Dr_willis> what is your fstab line?
[03:50] <thompa> im running edgy 64 on the second one, I think its old, but theres no grub on it
[03:50] <bobbyyu> My fstab line?
[03:50] <thompa> im just going to format it
[03:50] <thompa> brb
[03:52] <ubuntu> Kubunto is ATI compatible?
[03:52] <Beebop> Uh ...
[03:52] <Beebop> If by "compatible" ... XD;;
[03:52] <nimnrod> i can't find the path /.kde/share/apps/kdm/ to install the KDM themes...
[03:53] <Dr_willis> make it.. :P
[03:53] <Dr_willis> but that seems an odd place to put the themes
[03:53] <ubuntu> =)
[03:53] <thompa> I have /dev/sda1 right now in fstab, cant I add same line with new hda1
[03:53] <Jucato> nimnrod: you don't install KDM themes in your user directory
[03:53] <nimnrod> im suppose to edit a config file in that dir
[03:53] <ubuntu> How can I resolve the youtube problem with flash 7?
[03:53] <nimnrod> where then?
[03:53] <thompa> why /sda1 has UUID= looks weird
[03:53] <ubuntu> sorry about the bad english! =)
[03:53] <Hawkwind> ubuntu: There is a how-to on the ubuntu forums
[03:53] <Momal> here: /usr/share/apps/kdm/themes
[03:54] <Jucato> nimnrod: /usr/share/apps/kdm/themes
[03:54] <nimnrod> ooh
[03:54] <Dink> I run kubuntu 2.6.18 and ati drivers 8.29.6 so I would say yes it is compatible
[03:54] <nimnrod> thank you
[03:54] <Jucato> nimnrod: or you can install "kdmtheme" for a GUI to manage KDM themes
[03:54] <ubuntu> Hmmm tks!!!
[03:54] <Hawkwind> ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1087994
[03:54] <Jucato> thompa: that will be the new system in Edgy
[03:54] <Jucato> Hawkwind: hello there! :)
[03:54] <Momal> I wish xgl and compiz worked >_<... it worked with an older nvidia card but my new one it doesn't :(
[03:54] <Hawkwind> Jucato: Good morning to ya :-)
[03:56] <Beebop> ndiswrapper ...
[03:56] <ubuntu> tkx Hawkwind!
[03:56] <Hawkwind> ubuntu: No problem at all
[03:56] <Beebop> How the Hell do I get it to work with a WUSB54GC?
[03:57] <thompa> Jucato: so do I need that Id for a second hard drive i add in fstab?
[03:57] <Jucato> thompa: I'm not sure, I haven't tried adding drives on Edgy. (cause I don't have any drive to add...)
[03:58] <koboi> hello

[03:59] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[03:59] <thompa> Jucato: edgy does not have the disk utility anymore
[04:00] <Jucato> thompa: it does. System Settings > Advanced
[04:00] <Jucato> Disk & Filesystems
[04:04] <thompa> i forgot ext3 on that line, works now
[04:05] <thompa> one problem is that the new disk has exactly same thing on it but 64
[04:09] <Dr_willis> using edgy?
[04:11] <thompa> yes doc
[04:11] <Dr_willis> what ya trying to do? i researched the new and improved fstab/fancy uuid stuff :P
[04:12] <thompa> i think im going to try and add it to grub, so I can see difference in 64 version
[04:12] <Dr_willis> i even had my drives mounting by Label
[04:12] <Dr_willis> :)
[04:12] <Art_> Is there  way to bypass CUPS authentication?
[04:13] <Dr_willis> Art_,  bypass what part of it?
[04:13] <thompa> there a small network problem with nvidia
[04:13] <Art_> Dr_willis, All the stuff you have to do to ass a new printer
[04:13] <Art_> add
[04:13] <Art_> oops.
[04:13] <Dr_willis> using the web interface? or the kde printing interface?
[04:14] <Art_> Dr_willis, Either.
[04:14] <Dr_willis> the web interface is crippled by default. for some silly reason, got a url on it -- just a sec.
[04:14] <Art_> Dr_willis, Single user system.
[04:15] <Art_> Dr_willis, No one else has access to it.
[04:15] <link_36p> does anyone know why my cdroms might not be automounting?
[04:15] <Art_> Dr_willis, No reason for all this secrecy.
[04:16] <Dr_willis> http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/13/enabling-cupsys-web-admin-interface/
[04:16] <Dr_willis> Art_,  tell that to the ubuntu devs. :P
[04:16] <paddy2k> link_36p, are they in fsstab?
[04:16] <sorush20> is there anyway that I could write in k3b files with any length of file name?
[04:16] <Dr_willis>  thats not the url i was looking for - but it mentions the info.
[04:16] <Art_> Dr_willis, Sure :^)
[04:16] <Dr_willis> a kde dev. had a huge rant about how ubuntu broke the very well done web interface to cups.
[04:16] <Dr_willis> and i agreed with him. :P
[04:17] <Dr_willis> but for some reason all my bookmarks are mseed up. :(
[04:17] <Fifty> I'm having a problem with Konqueror. It crashes every time I click on an mpg file.
[04:18] <link_36p> paddy2k, I dont know, all i know is that there is a cd burner and a dvd rom, and the cd burner doesnt appear to be able to read any disks.
[04:18] <Art_> Dr_willis, Any idea the search topic?
[04:18] <Dr_willis> http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2076
[04:18] <Dr_willis> there we go.
[04:18] <Dr_willis> :P
[04:18] <Dr_willis> How Dapper LTS Succeeded To Spoil CUPS Printing (Part Three -- Installed on Harddisk)
[04:18] <Art_> Dr_willis, Thnx much!
[04:19] <Dr_willis> yea the ubuntu guys sort of dropped the ball BIG time with the cups web interface i feel.
[04:19] <Dr_willis> read all 3 of that guys articals on it.:)
[04:20] <Art_> Dr_willis, Will do.  Or is there an alternate printer driver available?
[04:20] <Art_> Like lprng?
[04:21] <paddy2k> link_36p, i had some problem with an NTFS drive there not too long ago and I had to delete the reference to it in /etc/fstab and then remount it. that might work for you! I'm no expert.
[04:22] <link_36p> i dont think i have an NTFS drive::o
[04:22] <Art_> Dr_willis, I'm trying to set up my brother in kubuntu.  He's 3K miles away.  We stumbled over the CUPS thing.
[04:23] <Art_> Dr_willis, He's a soso computer user.  I finally got him to try Fedora.
[04:29] <Kr4t05> Ugh...
[04:29] <Kr4t05> OK...
[04:29] <Kr4t05> So, I broke X while trying to do something stupid...
[04:30] <__mikem> what were you trying
[04:30] <Kr4t05> __mikem: I was trying to get AIGLX running on the nVidia beta drivers.
[04:31] <Kr4t05> Oh, wait...
[04:31] <Kr4t05> Scratch that...
[04:31] <Kr4t05> BRB
[04:31] <Kr4t05> quit
[04:32] <Fifty> Konqueror is crashing when I click on mpg files.
[04:35] <Dr_willis> dont click on them then. :P
[04:35] <Dr_willis> that would be the windows answer...
[04:35] <Fifty> lol
[04:35] <Dr_willis> oh wait - windows answer = reformat/reinstall
[04:36] <Fifty> windows answer = install linux >_> <_<
[04:36] <Jucato> (windows answer = reboot...)
[04:38] <Momal> windows answer = BSOD
[04:38] <__mikem> windows answer = pay microsoft more money
[04:38] <paddy2k> what about opening them from VLC?
[04:38] <Kr4t05> Hrm..
[04:38] <Fifty> that works, but I'd rather open them from konqueror >_<
[04:38] <Kr4t05> Ok... I can run startx from a TTY, but KDM refuses to work.
[04:38] <paddy2k> then associate MPG files with VLC
[04:39] <Fifty> no, it crashes when I select mpg files, it doesn't matter what they open with
[04:40] <paddy2k> oh just the selecting of them krashes it, try removing the lib that deals with MPEg files and reinstalling it.
[04:40] <Fifty> ok :)
[04:47] <koboi_> re
[04:47] <Kr4t05> Thanks.
[04:47] <Kr4t05> good news.

[04:53] <josh__> i need help
[04:53] <josh__> i'm in linux and i need to send files to another computer on my network running windows
[04:53] <josh__> how would i go about this?
[04:54] <Kr4t05> !samba
[04:54] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[04:54] <paddy2k> cool, my first big of giving help here payed off I only joined IRC 20 mins ago!
[04:54] <josh__> yeah
[04:54] <Fifty> lol paddy2k :P
[04:54] <josh__> how do i make my windows machine visible in samba
[04:55] <irish_wopr> is the windows machine hosting the file share?
[04:55] <josh__> umm
[04:55] <josh__> i suppose
[04:55] <josh__> i need to send a huge file to it
[04:56] <irish_wopr> then create a share on the windows machine, and use smbclient to connect to it
[04:56] <josh__> how do i do that
[04:56] <irish_wopr> smbclient if very much like using an ftp client
[04:56] <josh__> ok
[04:57] <josh__> yeah i just need it to show up in my smb:// folder
[04:57] <josh__> i thought this would be easy
[04:57] <josh__> i get an error when i click on samba shares saying i can't connect to teh workgroup
[04:58] <irish_wopr> you have to share the folder with write permissions
[04:59] <irish_wopr> to enable file sharing on windows, you have to select a folder, right click, go to sharing and security, and set up the share.
[04:59] <irish_wopr> if its winxp, turn off simple file sharing
[04:59] <irish_wopr> it will make life easier
[05:00] <juztin> question : what is the command to start the kde menu editor, so i don't have to go through system settings/panel/menu/edit k menu in order to edit the menu?
[05:01] <Jucato> juztin: right-click on the K Menu icon and select "Menu Editor"
[05:01] <Jucato> juztin: or Alt+F2 and enter "kmenuedit"
[05:01] <juztin> Jucato, thanks
[05:02] <josh__> omg
[05:02] <josh__> i can't do this
[05:02] <mluser-laptop> Anybody know the command I'm supposed to run after installing the fglrx packages?
[05:02] <josh__> i thought this would be so freaking simple
[05:02] <juztin> mluser-laptop, the command to check that it's installed properly?
[05:02] <Jucato> josh__: have you installed samba?
[05:03] <Jucato> I mean the package called "samba" ?
[05:03] <irish_wopr> josh__: check windows help to see how to set up a share
[05:04] <irish_wopr> josh__: then you have to make sure that you have network access to it (IE: firewall allowances, etc)
[05:04] <mluser-laptop> juztin: No.. there is something I have to run to modify the xorg.conf.. but I dont remmember what it is
[05:04] <josh__> oh the actual samba package wasn't installed
[05:05] <juztin> mluser-laptop, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:05] <juztin> iirc
[05:05] <mluser-laptop> juztin: thanks.. I'll try that now

[05:08] <nalioth> what!? i thought thorazine was the way to cooperate with Windows environments
[05:11] <BluDog_Anchorite> samba is not cakewalk, but its workable
[05:11] <BluDog_Anchorite> the client side is easy
[05:21] <josh__> how do i create a share in windows?
[05:21] <josh__> i've got everything setup
[05:21] <josh__> i just dont know how to make a share
[05:23] <qu1ckfr0st> hey i had some problems installing Codeine, it gave me a message like "uic was not found - set QTDIR put it in your path ?"
[05:24] <qu1ckfr0st> anyone have any advice?
[05:25] <josh__> why not use something else
[05:25] <josh__> have you tried automatix?
[05:25] <Dr_willis> ick. :P
[05:26] <Dr_willis> to set up windows to share a folder. ya use the properties/shareing tab
[05:26] <kamui> how do I make changes to my kde session?  I want to start compiz as my window manager at startup but I don't seem to have kontrol-center

[05:27] <Parkotron> kamui: It's kcontrol you want.
[05:27] <unix_infidel> xev
[05:28] <kamui> Parkotron: for both?
[05:28] <Jucato> kamui: actually, you might have to manually edit some config files for that.
[05:28] <Parkotron> Definately for the second. I doubt for the first.

[05:30] <kamui> I just apt-grabbed kontrol-autostart, possibly that will help, or I suppose I could edit ~/.kde/autostart
[05:30] <kamui> Jucato: You're teh first person to get the reference
[05:30] <kamui> :)
[05:30] <Jucato> heh
[05:31] <Jucato> just don't become a chi no ryu and you'll be fine :P
[05:31] <josh__> and the guy who was tyrying to install codeine
[05:31] <Jucato> kamui: I don't think you're going to be able to do what you want with compiz simply by putting it in Autostart.
[05:31] <josh__> just install the package
[05:32] <qu1ckfr0st> what do you mean?
[05:32] <josh__> go into adept
[05:32] <josh__> type codeine
[05:32] <Jucato> !codeine
[05:32] <ubotu> codeine: video player for KDE designed to be as simple as possible. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 153 kB, installed size 544 kB
[05:32] <josh__> and install the package
[05:32] <josh__> then run codeine and it will start right up
[05:33] <josh__> are you trying to do a manual installation or something?
[05:33] <Jucato> qu1ckfr0st: he means that Codeine can be easily installed from our repositories.
[05:33] <kamui> Jucato: what do you mean?
[05:33] <qu1ckfr0st> for some reason im searching it but it's not coming up.
[05:33] <josh__> enable ur universe and multiverse repositories
[05:33] <Jucato> qu1ckfr0st: probably because you don't have universe enabled
[05:33] <kamui> Jucato: so far after running the wm manually, the only thing I can't do is use the super key shortcuts I assigned
[05:33] <Jucato> !repository
[05:33] <kamui> They just don't work
[05:33] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[05:34] <josh__> just click on manage repositories in adept
[05:34] <Jucato> qu1ckfr0st: use that link ^^^^
[05:34] <josh__> and right click the ones that say universe or something else and click enable
[05:34] <josh__> then click apply and fetch updates
[05:34] <josh__> my explination sums it all up
[05:34] <Jucato> kamui: to be able to change the default window manager that KDE will use, you have to edit a configuration file. (I'm just not sure which one)
[05:35] <Jucato> compiz is a window manager, not just an app
[05:35] <kamui> Jucato: I just inteded to issue a compiz-start --replace to replace whatever wm was currently running at that point
[05:35] <kamui> dirty but simple and quick
[05:35] <kamui> works, just having issues with kde and my buttonmapping atm
[05:35] <Jucato> kamui: heh... if that's the recommended way to do it...
[05:36] <kamui> Jucato: I doubt its recommended, but #ubuntu-xgl doesn't seem to have any kde users
[05:36] <Jucato> go figure :)
[05:36] <kamui> so i've been having to piece it togetehr myself
[05:37] <Jucato> I'm not sure it'd be good to put a command in Autostart, though... but if that's what you want to do, just right-click on ~/.kde/Autostart and Create New > Link to Application
[05:37] <maltaethiron> hey guys, got a question:  how do i log into the root profile?
[05:37] <Jucato> (I find kcontrol-autostart to be unreliable...)
[05:37] <Jucato> maltaethiron: what do you mean by "root profile"? root account?
[05:38] <maltaethiron> jucato: yes, of course
[05:38] <Jucato> maltaethiron: root account is disabled in Ubuntu
[05:38] <Jucato> !sudo
[05:38] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:38] <Jucato> read up on that to give you an idea ^^^^
[05:38] <kamui> Jucato: the only thing broken for me is I still can't get the superkey to map.  Do I need to restart kde before I can use it?  Second, I think Ill try just putting it in ~/.kde/autostart/
[05:38] <maltaethiron> im just curious if there is any way to log into that account
[05:39] <maltaethiron> like how i log into the "paul" account when my computer starts
[05:39] <Jucato> maltaethiron: no, because it is disabled (virtually non-existent)
[05:39] <Jucato> and also not recommended
[05:39] <maltaethiron> i know its not recommended
[05:39] <maltaethiron> because stupid people can do stupid things
[05:39] <Jucato> anything you need to do graphically as root could be done with "kdesu <command>".
[05:39] <maltaethiron> (like me)
[05:40] <kamui> I've always wondered, if the root account is gone, then what happens when your system goes haywire and you need to go into maintenance mode.  What do you put in where it says enter root password?
[05:40] <Jucato> maltaethiron: if you really really want to enabled graphically logging in as root, follow that link
[05:40] <maltaethiron> ok thanks jucato
[05:40] <Jucato> kamui: use sudo
[05:40] <Jucato> or boot into recovery mode in GRUB
[05:40] <kamui> Jucato: this is at maintenance mode, when booting in single user mode because something in your system is broken and it doesn't boot to a login.
[05:41] <kamui> you know, press ctrl-R to enter maintenance mode
[05:41] <kamui> or something like that, maybe its ctrl-T
[05:41] <kamui> usually happens when there is a problem with the filesystem
[05:42] <Jucato> kamui: you can still do maintenance from the command line, even if you can't login graphically. Ctrl+Alt+F1 brings you to a console
[05:42] <Jucato> if there's a problem with the filesystem itself, not even root can do anything about that (unless it's a filesystem on another partition)
[05:42] <kamui> Jucato: this is WAY before we start loading daemons, so Im not even talking about not getting to gdm/kdm.  Im talking about right after the kernel boots and its loading the modules for the filesystem and then finally attempting to mount the filesystem
[05:42] <kamui> Jucato: but Im sure you could just boot from a livecd in that instance
[05:43] <Jucato> you could also boot into recovery/single user mode from GRUB. but like I said, if the filesystem itself is whacked, what use is logging into root when you can't even get the filesystem up?
[05:43] <kamui> Jucato: I guess its not very common in ubuntu, but I used to see it freqently on my debian box when one of my siblings would turn off the computer without shutting down properly
[05:43] <Jucato> so, yeah, Live CD
[05:44] <kamui> Jucato: doesn't recovery mode also ask for the root password?
[05:44] <Admiral_Chicago> catn someone duplicate a bug for me
[05:44] <Admiral_Chicago> on Edgy + Gaim
[05:44] <josh__> i am getting so mad
[05:44] <Jucato> kamui: depends. mine doesn't. (I forgot the option for that)
[05:44] <Jucato> I think if it asks for the root password, then it means you have enabled the root account
[05:44] <josh__> why the hell can't my windows machine be seen in samba shares or in network services
[05:45] <kamui> Jucato: one more thing, how could I go about testing if my super key is even mapped? is there an application that would show what keys are being pressed on the keyboard?  Because when I press the key combo it doesn't work, but when I  remap the combo to ctrl+alt+button, it works.  so Im sure its just not recognizing super.
[05:45] <kamui> do I need to restart kde before kcontrol keymap changes take effect?
[05:45] <Jucato> kamui: that I wouldn't know. haven't played around with Compiz... :P
[05:46] <kamui> Jucato: im takling about just plain kde now.  If I change the keymap in kde to 104US and enable xkb, do i have to restart kde before those changes take effect? Or is something broken here
[05:47] <Jucato> kamui: hm... probably restart X too? not really sure as I have not changed by keyboard mapping...
[05:49] <maltaethiron> jucato: how do i go about getting the root password once ive enabled gavical login?
[05:49] <Jucato> that page says it all (or at least it should...)
[05:49] <maltaethiron> grafical*
[05:49] <kamui> brb, restarting X
[05:49] <maltaethiron> !sudo
[05:49] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:50] <Jucato> maltaethiron: the section on enabling the root account
[05:50] <maltaethiron> yes, i did that
[05:50] <maltaethiron> but once i logged out and went to login as root
[05:51] <maltaethiron> i tried my password, but it didnt work
[05:51] <Momal> did you set a password for root ?
[05:51] <maltaethiron> er..no
[05:51] <Momal> sudo passwd
[05:51] <Jucato> maltaethiron: that's what I said about enabling the root account
[05:51] <Momal> then put in the pass then verify then thats roots new password
[05:51] <Jucato> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#head-6357ee1f3ec93078a7d7cbc2c627208117e9499d
[05:52] <maltaethiron> ty guys
[05:52] <maltaethiron> lets see if this worked...
[05:55] <kamui> well, autostart worked.  But my keymap is still broken
[05:55] <kamui> :(
[05:55] <Jucato> :(
[05:56] <Momal> xgl + compiz using latest nvidia drivers from website (and kde of course) anyone been successful wanna help me get it working ?
[05:56] <flaccid> !xgl
[05:56] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[05:56] <nixbox> hi all
[05:56] <nixbox> how do i log an ssh session?
[06:02] <Momal> hmm,,,, anyway I can install cdwg these days apt-get says it links to another package :S
[06:13] <kamui> I could really use some help mapping super to my win key
[06:13] <kamui> this just aint werkin fer me
[06:14] <t3h_r00t> jucato: look, i didnt break my computer yet!
[06:14] <t3h_r00t> (it's maltaethiron)
[06:15] <Jucato> t3h_r00t: heh.. just make sure you know what you're doing, and you'll be fine :P
[06:15] <paddy2k> has anyone has problems with flash not playing audio in Kubuntu?
[06:15] <t3h_r00t> jucato: yeah, i may not know linux THAT well, but im smart enough to not eff around with random commands and whatnot
[06:15] <unix_infidel> paddy2k: that's beause somethig is already using the sound device.
[06:15] <unix_infidel> !alsaoss
[06:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alsaoss - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:16] <paddy2k> that would make sense! Thanks!
[06:16] <unix_infidel> some people are really enthusiastic....
[06:16] <unix_infidel> :)
[06:16] <t3h_r00t> lol
[06:17] <Momal> lol i don't know much about linux but i'll muck around with any command lol
[06:17] <t3h_r00t> haha
[06:17] <Momal> if it brakes then just pop out the cd and reinstall :p
[06:17] <snapy> somebody please help me change refresh in grub (for the text console framebuffer)
[06:18] <Momal> but my problem this time is not that its screwing up just simply the piece of shit wont work >_<... damn xgl and compiz >_>
[06:18] <unix_infidel> Momal: I used to think that all the time.  And even know re-installing is easier than dealing with some broken system.
[06:18] <t3h_r00t> don't cry momal
[06:18] <unix_infidel> But most often i just have a tar backup of a install state i like :0
[06:18] <paddy2k> talking of XGL has anyone actually got them to work?
[06:18] <Momal> i have tried 8 different guides yet none work :S.
[06:19] <Momal> I did I had it working fine on a FX5200 now that I have a 7800GT it doesn't work
[06:19] <Momal> like GRRR
[06:19] <snapy> "vga=795 video=1280x1024@75" actually leaves refresh at @60
[06:20] <Momal> does your screen support more then 60 on 1280x1024 ?
[06:20] <snapy> yes, it does. in x11, for instance
[06:21] <snapy> Momal: nvidia 6600gt
[06:21] <kamui> what program should I use to map the special keys on my laptop?  It was all set in gnome with the original ubuntu install (automatically), so I assume kubuntu MUST have a way to do the same
[06:21] <Momal> what monitor you have?
[06:22] <snapy> Momal: fbset *shows* the fb settings, but how do i *set* fb settings of a console from itself (i guess it's not possible, but i prefer to ask)
[06:22] <Momal> good question lol
[06:23] <snapy> Momal: mine?
[06:23] <Momal> snapy: I was thinking along the lines that your monitor didn't support more then 60hz at that res thats why only went to that hz
[06:23] <snapy> Momal: also, what is the equivalent of fbset for x11? (statistics about x11 driver)
[06:25] <Momal> Dunknow havn't worked with X that much lol... anyone else know ?
[06:25] <snapy> thank you anyway :)
[06:27] <Dr_willis> since i got a lcd - the refresh rate dont matter much :)
[06:30] <snapy> Dr_willis: mine is lcd too, but my console 1280x768@60 and my 1280x768@60 in a windows game look completely differently, so i have to setup the monitor again everytime i switch between them, because there's no way i could change refresh in the game and it seems grub doesn't obey either
[06:30] <Makro2a> i think the alsa module snd-seq is not loaded by default
[06:30] <Dr_willis> Hmm,,   what game are ya refering to?
[06:31] <snapy> Makro2a: snd-seq has nothing to do with my fb
[06:31] <Makro2a> and it should be
[06:31] <Momal> does anyone in this channel have kde, compiz, xgl, nvidia working that can help me out ?
[06:31] <snapy> Makro2a: it's a soung module for midi stuff
[06:31] <Makro2a> snapy: i `m not talking with you..hey...there is more ppl here you see? ;)
[06:31] <snapy> Makro2a: ok :))
[06:31] <kamui> aah forget it, no point in bothering with kde, I can't get super to map, and my laptop volume keys don't work.  The only benefit is kdevelop is a matching dev application.  But fuxk it, I can just use gnome and eclipse
[06:32] <snapy> Dr_willis: gta
[06:32] <Dr_willis> snapy,  running under wine, and windows?
[06:32] <snapy> Dr_willis: (i mean "grand theft auto", by take two interactive)
[06:32] <snapy> Dr_willis: no, dual boot
[06:32] <Dr_willis> ugh.. how are you running it under linux then?
[06:33] <notech> didn't know gta was linux native
[06:33] <snapy> Dr_willis: never said i was
[06:33] <snapy> notech: never said it was
[06:33] <Dr_willis> then why is there even an ISSUE. :P
[06:33] <Dr_willis> ya got me totally confused.. guess i go back to watching tv..
[06:33] <mluser-laptop> !amarok
[06:33] <ubotu> amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.3 and packages are available for Kubuntu at www.kubuntu.org
[06:33] <snapy> Dr_willis: lol
[06:34] <mluser-laptop> Anyone else having problems getting sound to come out of amarok?
[06:34] <mluser-laptop> This is a new install btw
[06:34] <snapy> mluser-laptop: me! me!
[06:34] <Admiral_Chicago> mulno
[06:34] <notech> makes no sense to me, looked like you said it looked completely different. if only playing in windows then how could it look different iin windows
[06:34] <Admiral_Chicago> err
[06:34] <snapy> mluser-laptop: esp some win format
[06:35] <Admiral_Chicago> mluser-laptop, whats the problem?
[06:35] <snapy> notech: so...
[06:35] <mluser-laptop> Admiral_Chicago: I cant get amarok to play anything using the xine-engine, It says its playing them, but no sound
[06:35] <mluser-laptop> xmms on the other hand.. works just fine
[06:36] <snapy> notech: when i am in kubuntu, my settings show completely different than those from windows after i enter the game, ALTHOUGH they are exactly the same.
[06:36] <mluser-laptop> and the arts plugin for amarok is for an older version of amarok
[06:36] <snapy> notech: i want to avoid this, because i don't want to setup the screen anytime i switch between windows+game and kubuntu
[06:36] <maltaethiron> !seen ztem
[06:36] <ubotu> I haven't seen ztem recently
[06:36] <snapy> notech: i could do this in two ways:
[06:36] <Admiral_Chicago> mluser-laptop, dang i know the error but i can't remember it
[06:37] <mluser-laptop> I'm sure its something easy :)
[06:37] <Admiral_Chicago> try rescanning your collection. that may help
[06:37] <mluser-laptop> thats not it.. and I cant even play mp3 streams, or shoutcast like I can in my gentoo setup
[06:37] <snapy> notech: 1. change refresh in gta (refresh only, because i adore the resolution) (which is impossible to do, as the game doesn't obey the windows settings)
[06:38] <Admiral_Chicago> mluser-laptop, yea it usually is
[06:38] <Admiral_Chicago> mute?
[06:38] <snapy> notech: 2. change refresh in grub (refresh only, because i adore the resolution) (which seems grub doesn't accept)
[06:38] <snapy> notech: is it clearer now?
[06:39] <Dr_willis> or are there some newer ones now that go over 60?
[06:39] <snapy> notech: if i changed refresh, my monitor will treat them as different modes and therefore store them separately -- perhaps this is the relevant info that i missed
[06:40] <snapy> Dr_willis: yes, my monitor supports @75 and @85 in x11, that's why i only need to do this in grub
[06:40] <notech> i'm somewhat confused but sounds like an issue with the game. like the game changes refresh rate on you.
[06:41] <Dr_willis> im not seeing how the lcd is doing 85 and 75, :P
[06:41] <Dr_willis> or is the lcd just changeing positions or somtning?
[06:42] <snapy> Dr_willis: it's not the monitor, it's the video card that produces that. and for it, it does matter. also, the monitor doesn't show the difference, because of the typically low latency, but it still detects it as a different screen mode and behaves accordingly (i.e. stores the settings separately, which is the only thing that i need)
[06:42] <snapy> Dr_willis: exactly! changing positions
[06:43] <Dr_willis> snapy,  why not just set up X to use the same refresh rate so the positions are the same.. assuming the different rates dont look differently?
[06:43] <snapy> Dr_willis: plus some vertical bands of blur
[06:43] <Dr_willis> Hmm...
[06:43] <Dr_willis> is this a dvi conected monitor?
[06:43] <snapy> Dr_willis: i have just explained this in full detail, read above
[06:44] <unix_infidel> Dr_willis: you drive a dodge?
[06:44] <snapy> Dr_willis: no, it's not
[06:44] <Dr_willis> unix_infidel,  i got several dodges' :P i work for DaimlerChrysler.
[06:44] <unix_infidel> Dr_willis: serveral?
[06:44] <unix_infidel> several? :{P
[06:44] <unix_infidel> yes, that's my dr. z mustache.

[06:45] <Dr_willis> right now got a Dakota truck, and a  Caliber.
[06:45] <Admiral_Chicago> #kubuntu-offtopic please
[06:45] <unix_infidel> caliber is a nice short term compact imho.  not sure how well it'll work on the long run :P
[06:46] <Dr_willis> Yea. the one we got has the super duper breaks and Allwheeldrive..
[06:46] <Dr_willis> :) its got git up and go.. and  when ya slam on the breaks.. it tosses ya through the windshield.
[06:46] <Dr_willis> good milage.. rides nice..
[06:46] <Dr_willis> and ya can haul a lot.

[06:47] <snapy> Momal: btw, if my monitor actually supports @75.02 in x11, should i specify it as @75.02 in grub (rather than @75)?
[06:48] <Dr_willis> The new Nitro looks  nice also. :)
[06:49] <Momal> I dont' think that should matter... 75 should work if the monitor goes there :S
[06:58] <Dr_willis> crank it up to 200000000000mhz! :P

[07:49] <Admiral_Chicago> plugs, i'm doing limits right now
[07:49] <Admiral_Chicago> so boring
[07:50] <Admiral_Chicago> great...no man page
[07:52] <plugs> heh yay for calculus homework
[07:52] <Admiral_Chicago> i fall asleep all the time because i get so bored in class
[07:53] <plugs> my class is actually alright. at my school all the advanced math teachers are cool
[07:53] <Admiral_Chicago> i get the concepts real easy and i can do them, i just don't like it being repeated to me all over again
[07:53] <Admiral_Chicago> plugs, i'm in college see
[07:54] <plugs> youre in college and crap is being repeated to you? weird i always thought everything goes at a blazingly fast speed
[07:56] <Admiral_Chicago> nope that not really true. i go to a small liberal arts college though (monmouth college not the one in NJ)
[08:04] <kkathman> what CLI command do I need to check if a lib is installed?
[08:05] <kkathman> like libsdl, liblcms  etc?
[08:05] <Healot> sudo ldconfig -v
[08:06] <fdoving> or 'ldconfig -p' (faster)
[08:06] <fdoving> only prints the current cache.
[08:08] <fdoving> kkathman: you can also use 'dpkg -l|grep libsdl' for example.
[08:09] <fdoving> that is looking at packages.
[08:09] <kkathman> ahh ok.. Im testdriving a new image program called pixel and it says it needs libsdl and few others... apparently they were installed cuz the program works :)
[08:14] <nick_> when i go to display in system settings i get "The module Display cannot be loaded"
[08:15] <fdoving> is that edgy?
[08:17] <nick_> anyone kno?
[08:17] <ningbojoe> I was just wondering what is the best Newsreader Client to use on Kubuntu. Thank you for any help.
[08:21] <fdoving> ningbojoe: knode
[08:21] <Momal> Can someone tell me if there is a way to reset kubuntu like restore all the defaults for kde and programs that are default with kubuntu
[08:21] <fdoving> Momal: move /home/username/.kde out of the way.
[08:21] <fdoving> Momal: you can do this in konsole with this command: mv ~/.kde dot-kde
[08:22] <ningbojoe> Thank u fdoving I will give it a try.
[08:22] <Momal> yea thats for kde though... I mean all of kdes settings global settings, all configs etc
[08:22] <kkathman> ningbojoe:  if that isnt your cup of tea, pan is pretty good :)
[08:23] <kkathman> or even Opera has a very good news reader
[08:23] <fdoving> Momal: if you want to restore -everything- to the way it was after install, the easiest way might be to reinstall.
[08:23] <Momal> sorta like format and reinstall but without loosing my files and extra isntalled stuff eg webserver and that
[08:23] <fdoving> Momal: depends largely on what settings you're thinking about.
[08:24] <fdoving> Momal: all KDE user-settings is in ~/.kde
[08:24] <kraut> moin
[08:25] <ningbojoe> Great, thanks for your help. I probably be back as I am a complete newbie, but enjoying it so far.
[08:25] <nick_> is compiz and xgl as easy to install as ckecking them in the repository?
[08:25] <Momal> no
[08:25] <nick_> and installing
[08:25] <Momal> hell no
[08:25] <Momal> lol
[08:25] <fdoving> ningbojoe: feel free to come back :)
[08:25] <nick_> what do you all have to set up
[08:25] <Momal> i just went through sooo much crap trying with xgl and stuff lol
[08:25] <Momal> xgl is fine just wait till beryl comes out
[08:26] <ningbojoe> I will do.
[08:27] <nick_> whats teh next step for installing agter i got my nvidia drivers installed
[08:32] <__osh__> --------

[08:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beryl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:33] <BigEis> wha kind of processors do most people run withkubuntu?
[08:33] <BigEis> i have amd athlon 840mhz, and its not that smooth
[08:35] <BigEis> anyone?
[08:35] <Momal> berly is at #berly its going to be new combination of cgwd and compiz
[08:35] <Momal> #beryl **************
[08:38] <BigEis> anyone talking?
[08:38] <fdoving> no.
[08:39] <fdoving> :)
[08:39] <BigEis> fdoving: what type of processordo you run with kubuntu?
[08:39] <fdoving> G4 1.2Ghz
[08:39] <BigEis> ooh, beats mine out of the water
[08:40] <fdoving> a athlon 840 should do just fine.
[08:40] <fdoving> how much RAM?
[08:41] <Momal> I have a amdx2 4200 and 2gb ram... but I had kubuntu running on a 1ghz with 512mb ram fine awhile back
[08:41] <fdoving> my previous laptop was a dell inspiron with 866Mhz, and 512MB RAM. KDE ran just fine.
[08:42] <fdoving> I have to go to work, or a course rather.
[08:42] <fdoving> bye all.
[08:48] <snapy> how do i change the resolution of a text terminal without restarting computer?
[08:51] <abaldwin> hey
[08:51] <abaldwin> Im back again
[08:51] <abaldwin> I got the dualboot to work with kubuntu and fedora
[08:52] <abaldwin> hello
[08:52] <abaldwin> oi
[08:52] <abaldwin> hol
[08:52] <abaldwin> bonjour
[08:52] <Healot> !spam
[08:52] <abaldwin> no tem ninguem?
[08:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about spam - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:53] <abaldwin> I have a little question....
[08:53] <Healot> !ask
[08:53] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:54] <abaldwin> oh..ok...I just installed a dual boot with fedora core 5 and kubuntu on a 15gb master drive, and have a 200gb drive I want them to share, but I believe I erred in that I told the fedora install to call the slave drive /home
[08:54] <abaldwin> now, I want to move the fedora /home back onto the master, and just call the slave /media/hdb (which is what kubu is calling it)
[08:54] <abaldwin> so I can access rw from either install data on the slave
[08:55] <Healot> fix your fstab entry for both installation
[08:55] <abaldwin> yeah, I figure that part should be easy enough, tell /etc/fstab to mount /dev/hdb at /media/hdb, then, likely, I am going to place a link to that dir from either /home
[08:55] <Healot> map your mount points to your desired partition
[08:56] <abaldwin> the thng is...how do I move the fedora /home from the slave onto the master?
[08:56] <abaldwin> mapping mount points....how do I do that?
[08:57] <abaldwin> just so you know, at the moment I am logged into the FC5 install, too, I dont know if that poses difficulty while requesting help here...nobody on #fedora is responding
[08:57] <abaldwin> I figure I need to be logged into the fedora install to affect changes to the fedora /home anyway
[08:58] <abaldwin>  mapping mount points....how do I do that?
[08:58] <abaldwin> * BigEis has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[08:58] <abaldwin> abaldwin just so you know, at the moment I am logged into the FC5 install, too, I dont know if that poses difficulty while requesting help here...nobody on #fedora is responding
[08:58] <abaldwin> abaldwin I figure I need to be logged into the fedora install to affect changes to the fedora /home anyway
[09:00] <abaldwin> ok...Ill google mapping mount points...
[09:14] <xaxxon_> I'm having trouble following the directions to get nvidia binary drivers running.. first because the directions are for using a different package manager I think (synaptic vs adept)..
[09:14] <xaxxon_> is this a ubuntu vs kubuntu thing?
[09:17] <xaxxon_> ah, screw it.  I'll just use ubuntu
[09:18] <r0t0r00t3r> sup
[09:22] <Healot> wazzzupppp
[09:22] <Healot> it's the same OS :-
[09:23] <plugs> how do i format a drive?
[09:27] <Admiral_Chicago> plugs, what do you want to do?
[09:27] <Admiral_Chicago> i mean specifically
[09:27] <plugs> format my ipod
[09:27] <mark_> sudo rm -rf / is good
[09:28] <plugs> so if it's /dev/sda2, i should sudo rm -rf /dev/sda2 ?
[09:28] <mark_> well dunno if that would work, but it would remove everything on the ipg
[09:28] <mark_> ipod*
[09:29] <mark_> and probably brick it too
[09:29] <plugs> you can't brick an ipod.
[09:29] <plugs> Ever.
[09:29] <mark_> you tell nasty lies
[09:29] <plugs> well you physically can but duh
[09:29] <XTorchedX> is java already set up on this when you install?
[09:29] <XTorchedX> or do i have to apt-get something
[09:29] <mark_> no
[09:30] <mark_> apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[09:30] <XTorchedX> !java
[09:30] <ubotu> To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[09:30] <mark_> all you need to do
[09:30] <mark_> use gparted plugs
[09:30] <XTorchedX> use what?
[09:31] <mark_> Correct URL is: http://www.pi.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/creation.html
[09:31] <mark_> oops
[09:31] <arunkale> hey people
[09:31] <arunkale> can anyone help me to set up amule?
[09:31] <mark_> sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[09:31] <XTorchedX> yeah i did that
[09:31] <XTorchedX> i knew what you meant
[09:32] <mark_> go into adept and alter your repositories to have multiverse added on to every one that has universe next to it
[09:32] <XTorchedX> i did that yesterday
[09:32] <XTorchedX> it's working fine
[09:32] <mark_> well you have java now
[09:32] <snapy> how do i change the resolution of a text terminal without restarting computer?
[09:32] <XTorchedX> cheers
[09:32] <mark_> view, font, enlarge font?
[09:34] <mark_> bye
[09:34] <arunkale> does any one here use amule?
[09:34] <mark_> not i
[09:34] <arunkale> okay
[09:34] <XTorchedX> only for carrying aproduce
[09:35] <Admiral_Chicago> XTorchedX, no its not
[09:36] <XTorchedX> what's not what?
[09:36] <Admiral_Chicago> arunkale, i don't
[09:36] <Admiral_Chicago> installed on your computer by default
[09:36] <XTorchedX> ohh
[09:36] <XTorchedX> yeah i went over this with mark_ already
[09:36] <XTorchedX> but thanks
[09:37] <XTorchedX> it's installing as we speak
[09:39] <plugs> gparted doesnt see my ipod! buh.
[09:41] <plugs> ah wait yeah it does
[09:41] <mark_> switch to your ipod using the switcher in the top right
[09:41] <plugs> yea i found that hehe
[09:46] <Admiral_Chicago> plugs, amarok does ipod support
[09:46] <Admiral_Chicago> XTorchedX, it takes a wihle
[09:46] <Admiral_Chicago> or at least it did for me
[09:47] <plugs> yeah, i use amarok
[09:51] <snapy> how can i change text console resolution *without* rebooting (that is, not from grub/lilo, but while i am in the console)?
[09:52] <Admiral_Chicago> snapy, i'm pretty sure you can't
[09:53] <Admiral_Chicago> the konsole isn't part of X
[09:53] <snapy> Admiral_Chicago: is it so much kernel-dependent?
[09:54] <Admiral_Chicago> snapy, yes iirc. konsole in KDE might be able to be changed
[09:54] <Admiral_Chicago> go to settings >> font
[09:55] <snapy> Admiral_Chicago: i am talking about ttys, not about vts, so it has nothing to do with x11/kde
[09:55] <Admiral_Chicago> snapy, that...no
[09:55] <Admiral_Chicago> you can't change that from what i know
[09:55] <snapy> Admiral_Chicago: i am talking about what i access by pressing ctrl+alt+f1-6
[09:55] <snapy> Admiral_Chicago: why, is it so much kernel-dependent?
[09:56] <abaldwin> ha....silly me,...I''m back again
[09:56] <abaldwin> I decided the heck with dual booting fedora and kubu, removed the 15gb master drive, made teh 200gb the only drive in the machine and reinstalled ONLY kubuntu...wny not
[09:57] <Admiral_Chicago> snapy, because that has no GUI attached to it
[09:57] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, i've done that
[09:57] <abaldwin> I''ve beenusing fedora or rh for 7 years now...time for a change
[09:57] <Admiral_Chicago> just said screw it and got off dapper and went to Edgy
[09:57] <Admiral_Chicago> but I'm going to try out SuSE i think
[09:57] <abaldwin> only, I know I''m going to have a lot to learnagain all of a sudden, at a time when I really need to be working, not fiddling and learning,,,but where''s the fun in just working without fiddling and learning?
[09:57] <snapy> Admiral_Chicago: i think we're not on the same page, but i appreciate your kindness to help (and thank you)
[09:58] <abaldwin> getting used to sudo and apt after 7 years of su and yum and rpm...
[09:58] <Admiral_Chicago> snapy, i know what you mean but what you have to realize is that tty is a fail safe terminal
[09:59] <Admiral_Chicago> if you can alter it a bit. say font, color etc there would be dependent programs
[09:59] <abaldwin> why isn''t the mozilla suite (or seamonkey now?) in adept?  it's there but greyed out...I like the entiremozilla suite for mail and composer and everything
[09:59] <Admiral_Chicago> and a fail safe works best because if the font dependecy was down, there would be NO way to fix it
[09:59] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, not sure
[10:00] <snapy> Admiral_Chicago: i already use 1280x1024 on my *text* terminal (tty) and i can change it to whatever i want at any time with no need for a.. gui. all i need is not to have to do it from grub/lilo, but from an application. i guess this is impossible, but the reason can't be the lack of a gui, but rather its being very kernel-dependent (as i suggested)
[10:00] <abaldwin> what about gaim? if adept doesn''t show these things, does that mean I can''t apt-get them?
[10:00] <XTorchedX> i'm trying to install freenet
[10:00] <XTorchedX> and i'm getting some errors that i don't understand
[10:00] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, gaim should install fine
[10:00] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, command line
[10:01] <Admiral_Chicago> XTorchedX, post the last line
[10:01] <Admiral_Chicago> snapy, you lost me
[10:01] <XTorchedX> Exception in thread "main" java.awt.AWTError: Cannot load AWT toolkit: gnu.java.awt.peer.gtk.GtkToolkit
[10:01] <XTorchedX> that's the first line
[10:01] <XTorchedX> then it lists some stuff
[10:01] <snapy> XTorchedX: don't install freenet, because what you may not know is that it promotes anonymity
[10:01] <XTorchedX> is it because i don't have gnome?
[10:02] <Admiral_Chicago> XTorchedX, no
[10:02] <Admiral_Chicago> iirc, you can't do AWT in java on linux
[10:02] <XTorchedX> i think it's an interesting idea and i want to look at it snapy
[10:02] <snapy> XTorchedX: have you installed any gtk app on your comp?
[10:02] <XTorchedX> not that i know of
[10:02] <Admiral_Chicago> i had a problem with the AWT event when I was coding last semester
[10:02] <snapy> XTorchedX: then why don't you try tor?
[10:02] <abaldwin> oh...gaim is in there
[10:02] <XTorchedX> tor is about anonymous use of the internet snapy
[10:02] <XTorchedX> freenet is about an internet within the internet
[10:03] <XTorchedX> haven't you used freenet before snapy?
[10:03] <snapy> XTorchedX: that's nice
[10:03] <snapy> XTorchedX: tried to
[10:03] <snapy> XTorchedX: but it was too memory hungry
[10:03] <XTorchedX> it's not tor
[10:05] <snapy> XTorchedX: i know it's not tor, what do you mean it's not tor?
[10:05] <XTorchedX> i mean they're different
[10:05] <snapy> XTorchedX: so install gtk
[10:05] <snapy> XTorchedX: this is what you may need
[10:05] <snapy> XTorchedX: i know they're different
[10:05] <XTorchedX> then why did you tell me to use tor if you know they're different
[10:07] <snapy> XTorchedX: i know it now, after what you explained me what freenet was about
[10:08] <XTorchedX> alright
[10:08] <snapy> XTorchedX: actually i think the way our replies match each other can only be explained by substantial lag between us. can you please confirm that?
[10:08] <XTorchedX> no?
[10:09] <snapy> i think it was a temporary problem. or perhaps you lost one of my replies.
[10:09] <snapy> XTorchedX: anyhow, install gtk
[10:12] <abaldwin> I''ll be back....
[10:13] <XTorchedX> i didn't know alec baldwin uses kubuntu
[10:18] <abaldwin> I thknk I''ve gotten a little spoiled...although yum started to break stuff everytime I did an update lately, it gave me access to thousands and thousand of pkgs...and I''m not seeing that here with adept...should I be doing something esle t ofind stuff I want? synaptic or something?
[10:19] <abaldwin> I htink I see folks on here that I''ve seen hanging around LJ communities

[10:23] <munuel> hello i have problem to install sun-java5-jre with Adept, i can not activate the Installation
[10:24] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, you need multiverse and universe most likely
[10:24] <abaldwin> joining ubuntu_users as we speek
[10:25] <abaldwin> what's that, repos I need to add for apt?
[10:25] <abaldwin> how do i add them?
[10:25] <abaldwin> then adept will see all of those 1800 pkgs?
[10:25] <Admiral_Chicago> uhh there is a guide somewhere
[10:25] <Admiral_Chicago> !repo
[10:25] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[10:26] <Admiral_Chicago> yea that link

[10:28] <abaldwin> I am  UU, yes
[10:29] <igor> how can I find my NAT router IP?
[10:29] <abaldwin> ok, I''m going to poke around and figure out how to add these additional repos
[10:29] <igor> can someone help?
[10:32] <abaldwin> I see I have stuff that is not in the Kmenu...I have synaptic in /usr/sbin/ but it is not in kmenu, just addd it
[10:32] <abaldwin> I probably have other stuff I want and don''t konw it
[10:33] <abaldwin> Oh..I see, running synaptic from kmenu is stupid...I need to sudo start it from comand line to be able to affect changes anyway, eh
[10:33] <Admiral_Chicago> !info esd
[10:33] <ubotu> Package esd does not exist in any distro I know
[10:33] <igor> how can I find my NAT router IP?

[10:38] <Admiral_Chicago> yup this digg thing has certainly gone too far
[10:38] <abaldwin> I don''t see Brazilian Portuguese support...just Portuguese (portugual)
[10:39] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, maybe thats a project you could head...
[10:40] <plugs> !chmod
[10:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chmod - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:42] <abaldwin> well, I mean, it exists for KDE and what not...I just didn''t see it in the base ubuntu stuff
[10:42] <Admiral_Chicago> plugs, might just want to mann that
[10:42] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, what do you mean
[10:42] <abaldwin> although I know there are plenty ubuntu users in brasil
[10:43] <abaldwin> I was sifting through the language support in synaptic, and there is KDE brasilian portuguese, but in the base languge support there is not
[10:43] <Admiral_Chicago> abaldwin, bah i hate college dyers
[10:43] <Admiral_Chicago> ah i see
[10:43] <plugs> ya i did
[10:44] <plugs> can i write to a NTFS drive?
[10:44] <plugs> i got this:
[10:44] <plugs> "chmod: changing permissions of `/media/hdd1': Read-only file system"
[10:46] <Admiral_Chicago> plugs, not really
[10:46] <Admiral_Chicago> there are ways to do it
[10:46] <Admiral_Chicago> but it's finda unsafe
[10:46] <Admiral_Chicago> there was a guide i read somewhere onlin
[10:46] <Admiral_Chicago> but i don't have the link
[10:47] <Admiral_Chicago> you can do it, but NTSF is so screwed.
[10:48] <marcial> my printer don't works with kubuntu
[10:48] <marcial> What I do?
[10:49] <plugs> alas!
[10:49] <marcial> mi impresora no funciona con kubuntu

[10:57] <snapy> plugs: konsole has no serious alternatives (that is, as featured as konsole)
[10:57] <snapy> plugs: gnome-terminal claims to be one of them
[10:57] <snapy> plugs: also, i personally prefer xterm to even konsole
[10:59] <plugs> xterm then?
[10:59] <plugs> what's that drop-down one

[11:04] <Admiral_Chicago> Riddell, how is akademy?
[11:04] <Admiral_Chicago> i've been staying up on your blog about it
[11:04] <Riddell> it's great
[11:05] <Riddell> seems like KDE 4 is really going to happen, we weren't just imagining it :)
[11:05] <Admiral_Chicago> Riddell, btw thanks for fixing that bug on upslash. the one about missing artwork
[11:05] <Admiral_Chicago> i really want to go
[11:05] <Admiral_Chicago> and its in dublin
[11:06] <Admiral_Chicago> Riddell, any art come out of akademy yet?
[11:07] <Admiral_Chicago> i'm not away...
[11:08] <main2> i would like to install ONE package from the edgy repos, using adept
[11:08] <Admiral_Chicago> main2, which one?
[11:08] <main2> (it resides in the 'universe'
[11:08] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: VLC
[11:08] <XTorchedX> i reside in the universe
[11:08] <main2> (the current package in the repos of dapper is broken
[11:08] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: but i dont know what i should add to my sources.list
[11:08] <Admiral_Chicago> hmm. i don't think the verisons are different
[11:09] <Admiral_Chicago> main2, sec
[11:09] <main2> im not planning on running 'update' with that repos in my list - ok
[11:09] <main2> i tought that 0.8.6 is in the edgy repos
[11:09] <Admiral_Chicago> what version are you on?
[11:09] <crimsun> it is
[11:10] <crimsun> however, the version I uploaded last night is in binary NEW awaiting admin approval
[11:10] <main2> dapper?
[11:10] <crimsun> you'll probably want the dapper backport of the newer version
[11:10] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: i already filed a bug report on launchpad (guys of #videolan helped me a great way..)
[11:10] <crimsun> 0.8.6-svn20060918.debian-1ubuntu2, that is.
[11:10] <main2> YES!!
[11:10] <main2> can i get that one via apt?
[11:11] <crimsun> ro
[11:11] <crimsun> non
[11:11] <crimsun> as I stated above, it needs to enter Edgy first before it's eligible for backporting to Dapper.
[11:11] <main2> ok, but there currently is a version in edgy
[11:11] <main2> 0.8.6, which i would love to have..
[11:12] <main2> is it possible to add the repos to my sources.list (without running 'update') and then install it?
[11:12] <crimsun> there's already a dapper backport of the earlier svn snapshot
[11:12] <crimsun> you don't want that one.
[11:12] <crimsun> wait a half-day for the newer one
[11:13] <crimsun> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/edgy/+queue?queue_state=0&queue_text=vlc
[11:14] <main2> i know what a port of a piece of software is..
[11:14] <main2> but a 'backport'.. :X
[11:14] <crimsun> a backport is a source package from the current development branch compiled in an older stable branch
[11:14] <crimsun> in this case, we do backports from Edgy to Dapper
[11:15] <crimsun> they're in the dapper-backports repository
[11:15] <main2> from unstable - to stable
[11:15] <main2> do i see that right?
[11:15] <crimsun> right
[11:15] <main2> 'they're in the dapper-backports repository' but not complete yet
[11:16] <main2> ?
[11:16] <main2> ahhhh wait, they are in the que to be set in dapper?
[11:16] <crimsun> no
[11:16] <crimsun> the URL above is for Edgy
[11:17] <crimsun> a package can't be backported to Dapper if it's not already available in Edgy
[11:17] <crimsun> because the source package I uploaded earlier generates new binary packages, the packages require manual admin approval (called binary NEW)
[11:17] <main2> crimsun: ok that sounds clear to me, but i wonder how they are going to end up in the dapper repos then
[11:17] <main2> ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[11:18] <main2> hehe! :-))
[11:18] <crimsun> well, after an admin ACCEPTs the binary packages, they'll be published into Edgy. Then the dapper-backporters team will request a backport of said source package to dapper-backports. The admins will take care of that.
[11:19] <main2> that is great news to me, i've been trying to compile vlc on my kubuntu box but i got stuck with a nasty error
[11:19] <main2> http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=26764
[11:20] <main2> the dapper vlc package is broken: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/62217
[11:21] <crimsun> yes, I'm the person who responded to that bug.
[11:21] <main2> in short: i had no binaries i could install - and i couldnt use the source either
[11:21] <crimsun> (and the person who did the uploads earlier)
[11:21] <Admiral_Chicago> i just got some spam in my inbox...considering opening it because i'm on firefox and linux
[11:21] <main2> ur a cool guy!! =)
[11:22] <Admiral_Chicago> i feel so cool sitting on IRC talking about linux at 4.23 in the morning
[11:23] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: only talking about it already makes you feel cool
[11:23] <main2> linux is probably sooo much - way cooler then you think then.
[11:24] <main2> (can anyone stripe trough 'probably', its a fact)
[11:25] <Admiral_Chicago> main2, when i show off XGL, everyone goes nuts
[11:25] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: when you see the bloody chick on my cube you will go nuts
[11:25] <main2> nsfw: http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/1131/angelinajolie4ar4.jpg
[11:26] <Admiral_Chicago> main2, mine has a a different piece of artwork
[11:26] <Admiral_Chicago> nuce
[11:26] <Admiral_Chicago> nice*
[11:26] <Admiral_Chicago> but i got it off a site, let me try to find it
[11:28] <main2> hey crimsun, you made my day
[11:28] <main2> you rock =)
[11:28] <Admiral_Chicago> http://kubuntu.org/art/kubuntu-usplash-dapper.png kinda like that
[11:29] <Admiral_Chicago> but white and black with lines and stuff
[11:30] <solemnwarning-lt> Can I setup a kubuntu laptop to hibernate instead of having to shutdown/reboot?
[11:31] <Admiral_Chicago> solemnwarning-lt, on edgy
[11:31] <solemnwarning-lt> huh?
[11:31] <Admiral_Chicago> but that won't come out for another month
[11:31] <solemnwarning-lt> So the current version can't hibernate?
[11:32] <Admiral_Chicago> solemnwarning-lt, not that i know off
[11:32] <main2> solemnwarning-lt: i have heard more people asking for this...
[11:32] <main2> hibernation is quite a complex process
[11:32] <solemnwarning-lt> 1. Copy memory to disk
[11:32] <solemnwarning-lt> 2. ???
[11:33] <solemnwarning-lt> 3. Profit
[11:33] <main2> the way you say it, it might look easy
[11:33] <solemnwarning-lt> lol
[11:33] <solemnwarning-lt> The kernel supports hibernation
[11:33] <Admiral_Chicago> https://wiki.kubuntu.org/EdgyEft/Knot3/Kubuntu
[11:34] <Admiral_Chicago> its number
[11:34] <Admiral_Chicago> 7
[11:35] <Admiral_Chicago> i haven't tested it out yet. i wonder if hibernating will mess with my log ins
[11:35] <flaccid> what is that program that little x program that lets you know the keys you pressed on mouse or whater
[11:35] <Admiral_Chicago> like my gaim and stuff
[11:36] <Admiral_Chicago> huh
[11:36] <Admiral_Chicago> thats strange
[11:36] <Admiral_Chicago> i can only end the session and i'm on edgy
[11:49] <flaccid> what is the program that tells you the button number you press with your mouse
[11:49] <main2> flaccid: you dont mean x-eyes do you?
[11:50] <flaccid> i don't think so
[11:50] <Jucato> hm...
[11:50] <flaccid> it goes along with xmodmap
[11:50] <flaccid> i thought it was xmodmap
[11:51] <Jucato> isn't it?
[11:51] <flaccid> it didn't bring up a gui
[11:52] <Mortice> flaccid xev?
[11:54] <flaccid> thats it
[11:54] <flaccid> ur a legend!
[11:55] <Mortice> flaccid: heh. hope that helps :)
[11:56] <flaccid> immensely
[11:56] <flaccid> i love that program
[11:56] <flaccid> it doesn't lie
[11:56] <Daboone72> Hiya I'm very new to kubuntu how do I download the kernel source for my current kernel?
[11:57] <Daboone72> I'm trying to get a PCMCIA modem I have going for which there is a patch to serial_cs but I don't know if it's already been applied or not...
[11:59] <flaccid> !source
[11:59] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[11:59] <flaccid> hmm
[11:59] <Jucato> !easysource
[11:59] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[11:59] <Jucato> that one?
[11:59] <flaccid> nah kernel source
[11:59] <Jucato> ah
[11:59] <flaccid> its sudo apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.27
[11:59] <flaccid> but you do that (uname -r) or something?
[12:00] <flaccid> for Daboone72
[12:00] <Daboone72> thanks flaccid remembered how to use apt-get
[12:00] <Daboone72> it's now renamed to linux-source d
[12:00] <flaccid> what just sudo apt-get linux-source?
[12:00] <flaccid> virtual package?
[12:01] <Daboone72> yep it looks like a virtual package mapping to the current kernel
[12:01] <flaccid> ah sweet
[12:01] <Daboone72> which is good because I don't know to specify minor numbers either
[12:01] <Daboone72> 2.6.15-26 etc
[12:02] <flaccid> cool
[12:02] <flaccid> you may not need the whole source
[12:03] <flaccid> you can get the headers only
[12:05] <tmdx120> REGISTER tmdx120
[12:06] <raven79> hi all
[12:07] <raven79> fdoving: hi ;)
[12:08] <raven79> ah hi all other of witch i don't remember nick who spoke with me last time ;)
[12:11] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: it would be nice if i could have a callender on the top / bottom of my cube
[12:11] <main2> any idea's beside a set of images.. ?
[12:11] <raven79> main2: xgl?
[12:12] <main2> yes
[12:12] <raven79> i was able to setup an image with xgl
[12:12] <raven79> you should use an svg image
[12:12] <main2> raven79: thats not the problem.
[12:13] <main2> raven79: i tought that only png can be used?
[12:13] <raven79> why?
[12:13] <arunkale> does anyone here know of any good cms/portal system which is not too hard to customise?
[12:13] <raven79> you should use png and svg
[12:13] <main2> raven i just opened csm, and indeed - i can use svg as well
[12:13] <raven79> but i was able to setup an image using svg format
[12:14] <raven79> csm?
[12:14] <main2> raven, but how do i tell a svg image to change every month... :P
[12:14] <raven79> arunkale: drupal
[12:14] <main2> compizsettingsmanager
[12:15] <raven79> main2: ah ok...you should use imagemagick....
[12:15] <raven79> arunkale: i read somewhere it wins a prize as best csm....
[12:16] <raven79> arunkale: cms*
[12:16] <arunkale> do you know how to customise it?
[12:17] <zorglu_> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 <- "Microsoft has a majority market share" is a bug marked critical by mark shuttleworth. i see they are having fun at cannonical :)
[12:17] <raven79> arunkale: no i never used it...but usually you should download it locally, then unpackage it, modify and so on...surely there are a lot of tutorial on the net...(from beginners to expert user)....i'm sorry but i really don't know it.
[12:17] <arunkale> thanks :)
[12:17] <raven79> arunkale: we are here to help each other ;)
[12:18] <Admiral_Chicago> main2, i want to be able to use the cube
[12:18] <arunkale> i currently use wordpress, but i need to add some portal-like features
[12:18] <Admiral_Chicago> including top & bottom
[12:19] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: ?
[12:19] <main2> you do have xgl you said
[12:19] <Admiral_Chicago> i do
[12:19] <raven79> arunkale: ah it's another good cms...but what does it not has got?
[12:19] <Admiral_Chicago> i want to be able put a window on the top
[12:19] <Jucato> arunkale: you might want to peek at http://www.opensourcecms.com
[12:20] <arunkale> Well, I need to create a user system.. something like yahoo.. where you can use one id for a lot of services
[12:20] <Admiral_Chicago> and have that bend. like you can to that on the sides of the cube but not the top
[12:20] <arunkale> Jucato: I've checked that out, but WordPress is the only CMS with a good user interface
[12:20] <raven79> arunkale: the Jucato tip is really good i know that site me too...
[12:21] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: i dont know if thats possible
[12:21] <Jucato> well WordPress is basically a blogging type of CMS so it doubt if it has portal-like features
[12:21] <raven79> Admiral_Chicago: no you can put only an image on the top of cube...
[12:21] <main2> Admiral_Chicago: i got my angie on top, and want a callender on the bottom.. :D
[12:22] <arunkale> Jucato: I've made sites like www.niralimagazine.com and www.split-magazine.com using WordPress.. it can do a lot more than just a blog
[12:22] <Admiral_Chicago> bed now
[12:22] <arunkale> I think for what I'm looking for I'll need a custom-made thing
[12:22] <Admiral_Chicago> ttul
[12:22] <Jucato> arunkale: probably. no plugins available for it?
[12:23] <raven79> arunkale: anyway opensourcecms has different sections...you can try to see if you are able to find something good for you...
[12:23] <arunkale> Jucato: There are plugins, but I'm not finding suitable ones to my cause.. yeah, I'm going through opensourcecms.. :) thanks
[12:25] <arunkale> what's up flaccid
[12:26] <raven79> guys i'm a beginner of debian-like systems. the question is: how can i see the package name of a program that i want to install?
[12:26] <lupine_85> apt-cache search ?
[12:26] <raven79> (for example...i want to install emacs...how can i know its name
[12:26] <tmdx120> howdy all. Ever since I "upgraded" to Dapper, I cannot read my usb drives. Any advice for a newbie?
[12:26] <raven79> ah thanks lupine....
[12:26] <raven79> i only read apt-get man pages ;)
[12:27] <zorglu_> adept can make it more interactive too
[12:27] <Jucato> raven79: you can also use the search/filter in Adept, or the "apt:/" kio slave in Konqueror
[12:27] <flaccid> arunkale:
[12:28] <raven79> oh wanderfull...there is a protocol integrated into konqueror for apt-get....konqueror own a protocol for each things :D
[12:29] <linux__alien> how do i remove kubuntu-desktop and allied applications totally from ubuntu
[12:29] <linux__alien> ?
[12:29] <linux__alien> i gave apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[12:30] <linux__alien> now i want to remove the KDE themes and allied applications
[12:30] <zorglu_> this is a good question, is there a good tool to remove package ?
[12:30] <raven79> noooooooooooo orrible discover....emacs is not between editors....
[12:30] <raven79> :(
[12:30] <Jucato> raven79: apt:/ is actually just for apt-cache  and browsing packages.ubuntu.com
[12:30] <raven79> Jucato: thanks ;)
[12:31] <raven79> sorry but how can i install a package (that is present into packages.ubuntu.com) but that my system does not know?
[12:31] <flaccid> arunkale: plesk crap
[12:32] <raven79> must i modify my /etc/apt/source.list?
[12:32] <arunkale> flaccid: ah, i've never used plesk
[12:32] <Jucato> !repositories
[12:32] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[12:32] <gnomefreak> once i select theme for KBFX and hit apply do i have to restart kicker and how do you restart kicker?
[12:32] <Jucato> raven79: ^^^^
[12:32] <zorglu_> apt:/ is nice, i wasnt aware of this :)
[12:32] <raven79> thanks guys
[12:32] <Jucato> gnomefreak: I don't know about KBFX, but to restart kicker, "dcop kicker kicker restart" would do
[12:32] <gnomefreak> thank you ill try it
[12:32] <raven79> zorglu_: i'm chroot from another distro... i cannot use konqueror now...
[12:34] <raven79> what do you think about aptitude?
[12:34] <raven79> isn't it good too?
[12:34] <miro> #neno
[12:34] <Jucato> raven79: definitely
[12:34] <zorglu_> a lot of people like it
[12:34] <raven79> Jucato: :D ....
[12:34] <gnomefreak> imbrandon: ping
[12:35] <gnomefreak> oh wait i think i screwed up
[12:35] <Jucato> un-ping :P
[12:36] <raven79> :D nooo i hate windows-like help to add repositories :D :D :D
[12:36] <Jucato> raven79: ?
[12:37] <raven79> this is with a lot of images of windows... :D https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu i'm only joking ;) i'm reading that guide!
[12:38] <Jucato> lol
[12:38] <raven79> thanks ubotu
[12:38] <Jucato> (ubotu's a bot...)
[12:39] <tmdx120> who
[12:39] <tmdx120> WHO
[12:39] <raven79> :D a very intelligent bot...it can answer rightly to other user ;)
[12:39] <Jucato> heh
[12:40] <lupine_85> hi
[12:40] <raven79> but where i can locate "all" repositories...to add at /etc/apt/source.list?
[12:40] <raven79> (i cannot use some kde-like feature at present...i'm in a console)
[12:40] <zorglu_> !sourceomatic
[12:40] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:41] <Jucato> raven79: "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list"
[12:41] <zorglu_> there are no good/standard way but sourceomatic give you an idea
[12:41] <lupine_85> question about a KDE widget - it's the one that lists things (e.g. the nickname list in Konq., most of the lists in KMyMoney)... I've switched to a dark theme with light text, but this silly list with it's two-toned colours looks out of place and is swallowing my text
[12:41] <raven79> oh thanks
[12:42] <arunkale> how do i install jre
[12:42] <lupine_85> example: http://ubuntu.lupine.me.uk/snapshot5.png
[12:42] <lupine_85> any way to fix
[12:42] <Jucato> lupine_85: in System Settings > Appearance > Colors, change the Alternate Background in Lists to match your Standard Background
[12:42] <Admiral_Chicago> arunkale, java?
[12:43] <Jucato> raven79: this might also help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine
[12:43] <Jucato> arunkale: same way you install java
[12:43] <Jucato> !java
[12:43] <ubotu> To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[12:43] <raven79> wanderfull ;)
[12:43] <arunkale> yeah java runtime environment
[12:43] <lupine_85> aha! thanks )
[12:43] <Admiral_Chicago> follow those links
[12:45] <raven79> could this be a "good" list for you? http://monoport.com/1481 i generated it with source-o-matic
[12:46] <Jucato> looks ok. it has the basic official repos. although you don't have any deb-src repos
[12:46] <raven79> i avoided unofficial...i don't know why :D
[12:46] <Guest659> hi
[12:46] <Guest659> guten morgen
[12:47] <gnomefreak> raven79: src repos are always handy to have incase you need to build a package
[12:47] <juri> osx86 is the best
[12:47] <Jucato> raven79: you "might" also want to have dapper-backports (if you want)
[12:47] <raven79> sorry phone...
[12:48] <juri> kubuntu is ok if you wont instal mac os in pc
[12:49] <zorglu_> juri: this is offtopic, please take it to #kubuntu-offtopic
[12:49] <juri> hi zorglu
[12:50] <juri> offtopic?
[12:51] <zorglu_> juri: #kubuntu is to help people using kubuntu, other topics are offtopic.
[12:52] <zorglu_> it helps keep the focus to stay on topic :)
[12:56] <Admiral_Chicago> plus users like myself who are in like 12 channels don't have to click over so much
[12:56] <Jucato> why use click when you can Alt+# :P (j/k)
[12:58] <raven79> i'm here again
[12:58] <raven79> Jucato: why dapper-backporta are usefull?
[12:59] <Jucato> raven79: because from time to time, it has updates to programs that are not included in dapper-security (they're not security patches) or dapper-updates
[12:59] <snapy> how do i change the resolution of a text terminal without restarting computer?
[12:59] <raven79> and gnomefreak src repos are needed to install packages from source? ...using one of them i will not install source code too?
[12:59] <snapy> how can i change text console resolution *without* rebooting (that is, not from grub/lilo, but while i am in the console)?
[01:00] <raven79> ok Jucato thanks
[01:00] <Jucato> raven79:  when you want to download the source code for a package that is in the repositories, you need to have the appropriate deb-src repository
[01:00] <gnomefreak> raven79: you use them to build using apt :) sudo apt-get source -b <package>   should download source and compile/build it
[01:00] <gnomefreak> raven79: thats how ubuntu makes the source code aval.
[01:01] <zorglu_> snapy: http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/savetextmode.1.html <- i dunno if it still do the job, but it was doing it in the paste. you may poke around this
[01:01] <raven79> gnomefreak: you are right...i see now that option...
[01:01] <gnomefreak> what file type are songs on cds?
[01:01] <snapy> zorglu_: than kyou
[01:01] <gnomefreak> and can i save them as mp3's or a way to convert them to mp3?
[01:02] <raven79> so now i will add some src repos too ;)
[01:02] <Jucato> gnomefreak: they're in Audio CD format? :P
[01:02] <zorglu_> gnomefreak: i think they are raw data
[01:03] <Jucato> gnomefreak: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping might help. (don't forget to install lame)
[01:03] <raven79> guys...is this http://monoport.com/1482 better?
[01:03] <gnomefreak> it would be nice if i caould get into the file instead of opening it in music player
[01:04] <raven79> ah another question...how can i locally see all packages available? and some details on those packages...
[01:04] <Jucato> raven79: looks good enough
[01:04] <raven79> thanks Jucato
[01:05] <Jucato> raven79: once you have enabled the proper repositories, apt-cache show <package> will give you details
[01:05] <Jucato> or aptitude show if you want
[01:05] <gnomefreak> raven79: you can use apt-cache search something  or adept sill give you a full list
[01:05] <gnomefreak> apt-cache show will give you details
[01:05] <raven79> Jucato: i already tried with that command...but i get some problem...but probably my repos list was not correct....now i will try again.
[01:06] <raven79> ok gnomefreak thanks ;)
[01:06] <Jucato> raven79: have you updated after you changed your sources.list?
[01:06] <Jucato> sudo apt-get update or sudo aptitude update
[01:06] <gnomefreak> can you convert .oog into .mp3?
[01:06] <gnomefreak> they are saving as .oog
[01:06] <gnomefreak> ogg
[01:06] <raven79> a lot of new command to learn...i hope to learn quickly so i will not ask you so stupid things ;) ...thanks guys
[01:07] <Jucato> gnomefreak: what is saving as .ogg?
[01:07] <gnomefreak> raven79: only stupid question is one not asked
[01:07] <gnomefreak> my cd :)
[01:07] <raven79> Jucato: no. i has not done the list update...now i will do it.
[01:07] <Jucato> gnomefreak: did you install LAME?
[01:07] <gnomefreak> using sound juicer to extract the songs to file
[01:07] <raven79> gnomefreak: thanks for your support...
[01:08] <gnomefreak> raven79: anytime
[01:08] <gnomefreak> Jucato: not ever sure anymore
[01:08] <gnomefreak> whats full name?
[01:08] <Jucato> gnomefreak: without LAME, soundjuicer can't encode to MP3's
[01:08] <Jucato> gnomefreak: "lame" :P
[01:08] <YazzY> howdy
[01:09] <raven79> this is an atipical channel :D usually people tells RTFM all others.. :D this is a good new "kind" of channel!
[01:09] <YazzY> i am trying to install compiz/Xgl for Matrox MGA G550 AGP on kubuntu. So far i get DM
[01:09] <YazzY> i got DRM working
[01:09] <gnomefreak> Jucato: its installing
[01:09] <Jucato> :P
[01:09] <gnomefreak> Jucato: how to use?
[01:09] <YazzY> http://forum.beryl-project.org/viewtopic.php?id=205 says to install cgwd and cgwd-themes
[01:09] <gnomefreak> lol
[01:09] <YazzY> but there are not packages named vgwd
[01:09] <Jucato> raven79: we don't say RTFM... we just say RTFL (Read the Fscking Link)
[01:09] <YazzY> cgwd even
[01:10] <YazzY> any idea ?
[01:10] <Jucato> gnomefreak: you don't use it. the encoding/ripping program is the one that uses it
[01:10] <gnomefreak> beryl uses emerald not cgwd
[01:10] <YazzY> k
[01:10] <raven79> Fscking?
[01:10] <gnomefreak> Jucato: it will automaticcly save as mp3 or i choose it
[01:10] <Jucato> gnomefreak: I think you have to choose it from sound juicer. (not familiar with it)
[01:11] <gnomefreak> raven79: another not so good way of saying f***ing
[01:11] <YazzY> gnomefreak: apt-cache search emerald does not giver any result
[01:11] <Jucato> gnomefreak: are you on KDE?
[01:11] <gnomefreak> Jucato: atm no
[01:11] <gnomefreak> i have all kde apps :)
[01:11] <raven79> gnomefreak: ah ok... :(
[01:11] <Jucato> gnomefreak: Konqueror even?
[01:11] <gnomefreak> yes
[01:11] <gnomefreak> ofcourse
[01:11] <Jucato> gnomefreak: check out the link I gave a while ago, for CD Ripping
[01:11] <gnomefreak> i have kubuntu installed just not on it atm
[01:12] <gnomefreak> Jucato: ty
[01:12] <gnomefreak> missed that
[01:12] <snapy> !it
[01:12] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[01:12] <Jucato> raven79: actually fsck is a program/utility similar to MS-DOS's chkdsk. but since it looks so similar to f**k... it's generally been used as a substitute by Linux users :P
[01:13] <raven79> ubotu: thanks for tip...but i'm tring to learn some word of english ;)
[01:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thanks for tip...but i'm tring to learn some word of english ;) - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:14] <raven79> Jucato: i never hear it...probably because i usually speak in italian...
[01:14] <Jucato> raven79: heh that's the response for other channels in other languages
[01:14] <raven79> Jucato: but happy to know it... :D
[01:14] <Jucato> raven79: which haven't you heard?
[01:15] <raven79> Jucato: i never see/used/heard fsck...instead of f**k ;)
[01:15] <Jucato> raven79: well, if you're not familiar with the Linux scene, it's normal not to have heard of it
[01:16] <raven79> Jucato: no. i'm a linux user since 4 years...but probably i never heard it because i usually go into italian forums...
[01:16] <raven79> Jucato: and so on...
[01:16] <Jucato> aaah
[01:20] <raven79> this is the first time that i try a debian-like system...it is pretty good...
[01:22] <raven79> i never used it before because a university teacher of mine use debian...so i was never able to think to use it :D
[01:22] <Jucato> heh
[01:28] <grothesk> How do I activate previews for video files in konqueror?
[01:29] <raven79> you should compile( install) packages with arts use flag enabled....at least with gentoo box ;)
[01:30] <SillyZ> gmornin

[01:56] <sorush20> !dmix
[01:56] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems and http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[02:07] <Hawkwind> gnomefreak: Did you need me for something ?

[02:12] <BluesKaj> flashplayer doesn't work on some sites http://www.compfused.com/directlink/3931/ .The sound works fine , but no video..any suggestions ?
[02:13] <Hawkwind> Probably because the site needs flash 8 or better
[02:13] <Jucato> hm... it doesn't seem to be Flash at all
[02:13] <BluesKaj> we can't run the newer versions , Hawkwind ?
[02:14] <raven79> i'm back
[02:15] <Hawkwind> BluesKaj: Flash 7 is the latest for Linux.  We won't get flash 9 until after the first of the year
[02:15] <Hawkwind> BluesKaj: But that site seems to need wmp11 actually
[02:15] <gnomefreak> i think it is flash and flash 7 plays the front page fine
[02:15] <Jucato> hm... strange. it wants to play on KMPlayer on mine
[02:15] <BluesKaj> Hawkwind, it points out right in the blurb that it uses Flash
[02:15] <gnomefreak> content="funny, video, videos, flash, animation, game, links, picture, silly, weird, odd, shocking" /><meta name="description" content="Your entertainment
[02:16] <BluesKaj> is there default setting in firefox for video animatins

[02:38] <raven79> devede23? neither google is able to find it....
[02:38] <raven79> can you give me a link, please?
[02:46] <BluesKaj> raven79, http://www.rastersoft.com/programas/devede.html
[02:47] <raven79> thanks
[02:48] <zorglu_> q. how do i delete files with konqueror ? here i mean delete, not 'send to grabage bin'
[02:49] <grothesk> How do I activate previews for video files in konqueror?
[02:49] <zorglu_> grothesk: i got this one by default here ... kubuntu 6.06.1
[02:49] <grothesk> zorglu_: kubuntu 6.06.1 kde 3.5.4
[02:50] <grothesk> I'm missing a certain package but I don't know which one... :-(
[02:50] <zorglu_> 3.5.3 here :)
[02:53] <grothesk> narf...
[03:03] <BluesKaj> ok, how does one uninstall an older version of  program like "devede "
[03:03] <BluesKaj> ?
[03:03] <zorglu_> try "sudo apt-get remove devede"
[03:03] <Jucato> BluesKaj: Adept? apt-get? Synaptic?
[03:04] <zorglu_> or that too :)
[03:04] <BluesKaj> hmm
[03:05] <zorglu_> Jucato: about that, do you know a apps which make the removal of apps easier ? like if a package install 10 dependancy, i uninstall the main package, but would like to remove the dependancies as well, is there a tool to make this easier ?
[03:05] <sorush20> guys should I file a but I can't get amarok-xine to wrokg with dmix on my usb headset..
[03:05] <Jucato> zorglu_: aptitude :)
[03:06] <eizesus> whoo
[03:06] <zorglu_> Jucato: oh maybe i should try it then :)
[03:06] <sorush20> here is my conversation ins alsa, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24764
[03:06] <Jucato> downside, I think you have to perform "aptitude update" before trying to install something. not really sure about that
[03:07] <gupta> is it possible to save "marks"  in man pages?
[03:08] <BluesKaj> Jucato, devede isn't listed in adept
[03:08] <Jucato> BluesKaj: how did you install it, then?
[03:08] <gnomefreak> does this look right to make a tar. tar -cvvf <tar i want> <file to put into tar>
[03:09] <BluesKaj> DL the tar file and extracted it in my home folder
[03:09] <BluesKaj> has a self installer
[03:10] <Jucato> BluesKaj: hm... does it come with an instruction on how to remove it? because if not, I'm not sure how it can be uninstalled
[03:11] <sorush20> guys how do I do this 08:37 < crimsun> you're essentially stuck with custom-crafting an ~/.asoundrc that hardcodes the device number in a dmix stanza
[03:11] <crimsun> (I've already answered that.)
[03:11] <Jucato> :P
[03:12] <gnomefreak> sorush20: im guessing he means edit that file to what you want it to do (not as easy as you might think)
[03:12] <Jucato> sound expert is in da house!! :)
[03:12] <Jucato> (not me, crimsun :P)
[03:12] <crimsun> it's not very difficult, perhaps a bit inconvenient
[03:12] <Jucato> heh :P
[03:13] <zorglu_> gnomefreak: yes it is right. except the 2 -v
[03:13] <gnomefreak> ah maybe combine all the loose files into one than tar it
[03:13] <gnomefreak> zorglu_: only 1?
[03:14] <zorglu_> gnomefreak: well -v is to display stuff as verbose while excuting the tar. up to you to see how much you need
[03:14] <gnomefreak> -v = verbose i couldnt figure out why man page used 2
[03:14] <zorglu_> maybe they pile up, some apps do that
[03:14] <gnomefreak> should i combine all files into one folder first than tar that folder?
[03:14] <zorglu_> -v a bit verbose, -vv a bit more, -vvv even more etc....
[03:14] <Jucato> gnomefreak: I think it's a typo?
[03:14] <gnomefreak> ah
[03:14] <Jucato> aah
[03:15] <Jucato> -vvvvv <--- how verbose is this?
[03:15] <gnomefreak> way too much
[03:15] <zorglu_> massivly verbose++ :)
[03:15] <Jucato> lol
[03:15] <gnomefreak> prolly shows you the gender of the files :)
[03:15] <Jucato> ooh...
[03:16] <Jucato> gnomefreak: have you been able to encode/rip to MP3's already?
[03:16] <gnomefreak> yep been working on it ;)
[03:16] <Jucato> glad to hear that
[03:24] <gnomefreak> ok lets find out how well this works
[03:25] <gnomefreak> oh tar name do i have to append .tar or does it do that for me?
[03:25] <gnomefreak> lol
[03:26] <Jucato> since when did filename extensions matter in CLI? :p
[03:26] <gnomefreak> i dont know lol
[03:26] <gnomefreak> rather not have the tar called name.tar.tar
[03:27] <BluesKaj> tartar sauce
[03:27] <gnomefreak> :)
[03:28] <Jucato> gnomefreak: you're not on Kubuntu right now, right?
[03:28] <zorglu_> gnomefreak: tar cvzf bla.tgz bli_your_dir
[03:28] <zorglu_> you surely be much too afraid about tar :)
[03:28] <zorglu_> !tar
[03:28] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (gnome) or ark (kde) - also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[03:28] <Jucato> oooh there...
[03:28] <lupine_85> bz2 ++
[03:29] <Jucato> let's see what ubotu coughed up...
[03:29] <zorglu_> there is even a gui to it :)
[03:29] <Jucato> ah yes.. but Ubuntu only :P
[03:29] <zorglu_> :)
[03:29] <zorglu_> we should rename ubuntu into gubuntu btw
[03:30] <Jucato> and it doesn't have the answer to gnomefreak's question
[03:30] <Jucato> zorq
[03:30] <gnomefreak> and im assuming use the path
[03:30] <Jucato> zorglu_: definitely noth!
[03:30] <Jucato> not*
[03:30] <gnomefreak> Jucato: no it doesnt
[03:30] <zorglu_> Jucato: why not ? people think gnome is part of ubuntu and that kubuntu is some kind of variant
[03:31] <Jucato> zorglu_: and they are correct
[03:31] <gnomefreak> kubuntu == ubuntu
[03:31] <zorglu_> gnomefreak: this is my point, both are different
[03:31] <zorglu_> kubuntu = ubuntu + kde
[03:31] <Jucato> kubuntu is actualy just ubuntu using KDE.
[03:31] <zorglu_> ubuntu = ubuntu + gnome
[03:31] <gnomefreak> only the DE
[03:31] <BluesKaj> kubuntu is ubuntu with kde instead od gnome
[03:31] <zorglu_> see the bug ? :)
[03:31] <Jucato> no bug. it's still ubuntu
[03:32] <Jucato> besides, it makes Ubuntu unique
[03:32] <gnomefreak> ubuntu is behind the DE
[03:32] <zorglu_> well there is bug in the naming
[03:32] <tur804> selam
[03:32] <rebecca> hi
[03:32] <Jucato> zorglu_: is it an established fact/system that naming distros have to follow that?
[03:32] <Jucato> anyway... getting -offtopic here...
[03:32] <gnomefreak> fudge
[03:33] <CVirus> well ... fudg'em
[03:33] <BluesKaj> hmm, can't find mplayer for firefox ...mozilla-mplayer doesn't seem available either
[03:33] <Jucato> !mplayer
[03:33] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. Enable multiverse repo and type sudo apt-get install mplayer for more info please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer  To compile it from source see:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer/Compile
[03:33] <ubotu> For Codecs try !codecs Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MplayerInstallHowto for installation tips.
[03:33] <zorglu_> yep, and the renaming wont happen, simply because of the brand mindshare that we dont want to loose :)
[03:33] <Junis> BluesKaj: use te correct sources
[03:34] <zorglu_> ok going to work a bit, see yq
[03:34] <gnomefreak> oh wth there has to be away around these damn error
[03:34] <gnomefreak> s
[03:34] <BluesKaj> already have mplayer ...just not the firefox link program
[03:34] <Rambo3> why is mouse even displaced buy 1 inch to the right. clicking on icon opens icon next to it
[03:34] <Aswe> whats the meaning of "Alternate install CD"?
[03:35] <gnomefreak> Aswe: its a text-based installer
[03:35] <gnomefreak> it also allows you to do OEM and Server install if you like
[03:36] <Aswe> gnomefreak can i install kubuntu without cdrom (never used linux before)
[03:36] <Aswe> ?
[03:36] <gnomefreak> !install
[03:36] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[03:36] <gnomefreak> Aswe: read that but its easiest from cd
[03:37] <Aswe> ok thnx

[03:41] <WeeD> Quick question. Why is it that Kubuntu was not shipped with the essential things such as make, patch, g++, gtk, atk, and etc?
[03:41] <WeeD> Well, I know they arent essential but whatever. Why werent they shipped with the latest relewase?
[03:41] <WeeD> Thanks in advance
[03:42] <Rambo3> gtk?
[03:42] <Jucato> WeeD: Kubuntu is not shipped with gtk because it does not use GTK+ apps
[03:42] <Jucato> WeeD: it is not shipped with "build-essential" packages (gcc and co.) for some reasons. they're still debating on that one...
[03:42] <Rambo3> g++ is not essential too
[03:43] <Rambo3> make is and i am not kubuntu dev so i dont know
[03:43] <Rambo3> maby all this eyecandy cra* takes to much place
[03:44] <WeeD> Ah, I see
[03:44] <Aswe> gnomefreak, i dont have cdrom and floppy and network.. can i install it without them? i cant find something about that in the "help page"
[03:44] <piltdown> ANyonr help with a sudo problem?
[03:45] <WeeD> So, yeah I ask because I've been through hell trying to work Kubuntu, Im a newcomer and still having issues installing the NVIDIA drivers and also ndiswrapper
[03:45] <gnomefreak> Aswe: that site is all i know i think you can install from usb but you would need network (you can order cds for free but you would need cdrom
[03:46] <Aswe> \=
[03:46] <WeeD> See, internet on the Kubuntu system is impossible because its only connection to the outside world was with Windows via USB network card
[03:47] <gnomefreak> Aswe: your on the internet now
[03:47] <gnomefreak> Aswe: download it save it to usb than hook up to other pc :)
[03:48] <Rambo3> WeeD download ubuntu iso to windows mount it and install from there
[03:49] <gnomefreak> its still 300mb :(
[03:50] <WeeD> Rambo3: I already have Kubuntu installed, using GRUB to dual-boot, no internet cause Linsys has no drivers for the USB network card, Is there any workaround for USB network cards in Kubuntu?
[03:50] <BadRabbit320> Does Kubuntu desktop version (from iso) **only** run **live** or will i get an option to do an install if I want?
[03:50] <Rambo3> I thought Linksys was supoported
[03:51] <WeeD> Not mine for some reason, it wont use it to connect to th einternet
[03:51] <Jucato> BadRabbit320: the Desktop CD has an install option
[03:52] <Jucato> Desktop CD = Live CD + GUI Installer
[03:52] <WeeD> Rambo3: What do I do to make it use the network card? Whap app controls the network controllers
[03:52] <Rambo3> WeeD: what are you using WEP WAP open
[03:52] <SuperSub> alexicon super here

[03:54] <piltdown> Su returned with an error is waht I get when I enter my password in System Settings and enter my password to change users etc.
[03:54] <BadRabbit320> ok, thanx.  been lurking/going to links you've put in channel, but some links say I need the **alternate** to do an install.
[03:54] <sudharsh> hi everyone, oo in kubuntu dapper doesnt spell check, whats the name of the package that provides this feature
[03:55] <Acc|ccA> i can't change the displayresolution
[03:55] <Acc|ccA> 640x480 is all i can chose
[03:55] <BadRabbit320> btw, I'm learning about U 7 K quicker than I learned Win
[03:55] <Jucato> BadRabbit320: not really. the Alternate Install CD just has more options
[03:55] <WeeD> Rambo3: Thanks for the link, I believe it will help. Now what do I tyoe in konsole to bring up wifi management?
[03:55] <Acc|ccA> it has worked before...
[03:56] <Acc|ccA> now it's over
[03:56] <Acc|ccA> what can i do?
[03:56] <Jucato> BadRabbit320: Here's a page that lists some of what the Alternate Install CD has, that the Desktop CD doesn't: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//kubuntu/6.06.1/
[03:56] <BadRabbit320> !su
[03:56] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[03:58] <WeeD> Does anyone know why ntfs is so retarded? Why doesnt Linux use compression on its filesystem?
[03:58] <BluesKaj> no need , not as bloated and no registry for starters :)
[03:59] <Jucato> WeeD: because Linux uses a different type of filesystem that doesn't need that (journaling)
[03:59] <WeeD> Okay, well, I would like to know if theres anything similar out ther like ntfs in Linux that would compress the entire HDD
[04:00] <SuperSub> anyone here no how to troubleshoot azureus problems Warning Azureus did not shutdown tiddily
[04:00] <WeeD> And allow for continual/regular usage. Low diskspace on my system
[04:00] <Jucato> WeeD: ext3? (default Linux filesystem)
[04:01] <WeeD> SuperSub: I have Azereus also, if you have untidy shutdowns, it means you have corrupted torrent files
[04:02] <SuperSub> should i delete them?
[04:02] <WeeD> Jucato: I know ext is default, but it doesnt allow reading of a comressed HDD. Is an ext3 partition already comressed in its own format, similar to ntfs?
[04:03] <SuperSub> nothing in my torrent folder
[04:03] <WeeD> SuperSub: Remove them to another folder and redownload the torrents
[04:03] <WeeD> SuperSub: Well
[04:03] <Jucato> hm.. probably not WeeD. I'm not really familiar with the filesystems. but afaik, ext3 doesn't need compression because it handles files well enough. not really sure, though
[04:03] <WeeD> SuperSub: Have you even started downloading torrents yet
[04:03] <SuperSub> yes
[04:03] <WeeD> Jucato: Thaks Jucato
[04:04] <WeeD> SuperSub: Yeah, delete the torrents and see what happens
[04:04] <SuperSub> i cleared the log files and deleted the torrent file but to no avail even uninstalled azureus and re-installed
[04:04] <WeeD> SuperSub: Or remove them
[04:04] <WeeD> SuperSub: See, I had the same problem
[04:05] <WeeD> SuperSub: All I did was remove torrents and it worked fine for some reason
[04:05] <SuperSub> getting a dialogue box in the bottom right hand corner of my screen which will not go away given me the shits
[04:06] <matthias> hi everybody
[04:06] <WeeD> SuperSub: It sounds more like an Azereus problem, I dunno whether Kubuntu is the source of the problem. When did it start coming up?
[04:06] <SuperSub> yesterday
[04:06] <SuperSub> using unbuntu
[04:06] <r0t0r00t3r> anyone familar with some of the more advanced configurations options with ubuntu and WINE?

[04:08] <WeeD> matthias: Search box near bottom
[04:08] <matthias> kk mom
[04:08] <WeeD> SuperSub: Yeah, use this: http://www.utorrent.com/

[04:08] <abc> If there is any way to install kubuntu directly from hd my CD-Rom is broken? :(
[04:08] <WeeD> SuperSub: Theres Linux support somewhere
[04:09] <SuperSub> do you know if its avail in synaptic
[04:09] <matthias> ah ok thx
[04:09] <WeeD> abc: Yeah, use Daemon Tools, http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/announcements.php
[04:09] <abc> hmm install on hd? :)
[04:09] <gnomefreak> SuperSub: just use ktorrent
[04:10] <matthias> Jucato: thx a lot that's what i'm searching for
[04:10] <SuperSub> installing know
[04:11] <SuperSub> but its a kde im using gnome will i have a problem?
[04:11] <gnomefreak> SuperSub: gtorrent it should be in menu it maybe listed as torrent
[04:12] <SuperSub> installed already thanks for ur assistance gentlemen
[04:12] <gnomefreak> yw
[04:12] <Jucato> or use KTorrent :P
[04:12] <SuperSub> heheh
[04:13] <Jucato> KTorrent 2.0.1 is available from dapper-backports. just an FYI
[04:13] <gnomefreak> 2.0.2 here (not dapper)
[04:13] <Jucato> gnomefreak: bleh :P
[04:13] <gnomefreak> :)
[04:13] <SuperSub> guys also getting a grub loading error 18... any suggestion???
[04:14] <Jucato> hm... I think that means that /boot isn't found within the first 8GB of the hard disk?
[04:14] <gnomefreak> yeah read the links ubotu says on one of them is what you need
[04:14] <gnomefreak> !grub
[04:14] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[04:15] <cannonball> SuperSub: First link on: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=grub+error+18&btnG=Google+Search
[04:15] <SuperSub> cheers will look into it  :)
[04:15] <Jucato> gnomefreak: that's the error I encountered a few weeks ago, hence the question about /boot on a multi-boot system :P
[04:15] <gnomefreak> ah
[04:16] <Jucato> imbrandn said that it basically means that /boot is not found within the first 8GB of the hard drive. Funny though that it was the first and (so far) last time I encountered it
[04:16] <r0t0r00t3r> anyone know where i can download codecs for .wmv video for totem? or is .wmv even a supported format for totem?
[04:16] <Jucato> r0t0r00t3r: w32codecs

[04:17] <Jucato> r0t0r00t3r: you use totem on Kubuntu?
[04:17] <r0t0r00t3r> yup
[04:17] <Jucato> hm.. that's new :)
[04:18] <r0t0r00t3r> ya - i prolly should just install vlc i guess.
[04:18] <Jucato> well if it doesn't work...
[04:18] <Jucato> I've never had a reason to try out the other players (vlc, mplayer) just because Kaffeine works, even if .rmvb/.rm files
[04:19] <pfein> any recommendations on a QT/KDE IM client w/ better Jabber support than kopete?
[04:19] <r0t0r00t3r> hmmm.... let me try that... gonna d/l the w32 codecs for kaffeine. thx again.
[04:19] <Jucato> hm... I think Kopete is the only KDE IM client... (or at least the most famous?)
[04:19] <Jucato> pfein: w32codecs will work with either kaffeine or totem
[04:20] <Mortice> i recommend your chat client + bitlbee if you don't care about flashy stuff
[04:20] <Jucato> Mortice: I think you're talking about IRC client?
[04:20] <Jucato> ah yeah bitlbee
[04:20] <Jucato> mea culpa :P
[04:20] <Mortice> :)
[04:20] <pfein> Mortice: so I run it locally & use konversation?
[04:21] <Mortice> pfein: if you must use konversation, yes :
[04:21] <Mortice> :P
[04:21] <Jucato> bitlbee can let your IRC client become an IM client...
[04:21] <pfein> Mortice: I kinda like konversation...
[04:21] <Jucato> konversation is nice, for an IRC client...
[04:21] <Jucato> Kopete hasn't given me any problems yet, except for MSN (which I blame totally on MS)
[04:21] <Mortice> pfein: heh, it's OK I guess, but yea. You get the server running and connect to it like any other IRC server using konversation
[04:22] <Jucato> hm... brb /away :P
[04:23] <pfein> Mortice: hmm, suggestions on other IRC clients?
[04:23] <Mortice> pfein: I like irssi, personally
[04:23] <Mortice> pfein: it's *mostly* a matter of taste though

[04:35] <nickste> Is there a hosts file in kubuntu that I can clear, to force a dns update on a certain domain?
[04:36] <lupine_85> nickste: /etc/hosts is the hostfile. it doesn't do what you think it does though
[04:36] <lupine_85> just dig @<server> <domain> - that should do it
[04:37] <r0t0r00t3r> where can i wget the w32 codecs for kaffeine?
[04:37] <lupine_85> !plf
[04:37] <ubotu> plf is the Penguin Liberation Front, see http://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf - mainly for i386 users with some packages for ppc

[04:37] <r0t0r00t3r> oops - thanks
[04:39] <nickste> lupine_85: the server parameter in the dig command, should I put the IP of the server in for this?
[04:39] <dil> no
[04:40] <lupine_85> yep
[04:40] <lupine_85> you can also use domain name, I guess
[04:41] <nickste> ok, and how long will that record be there for?
[04:41] <lupine_85> depends on the server
[04:41] <lupine_85> ubuntu doesn't do much caching of domain records
[04:41] <nickste> ok, thanks
[04:42] <main2> crimsun: instead of using 'update' the whole time, is there a website where i can see if its added to backport?
[04:42] <main2> crimsun: and one more thing, is half a day not a little bit optimistic? :-))
[04:42] <main2> (i cant wait to get it)
[04:43] <dil> does anyone know how install firefox on kubuntu?
[04:43] <dil> i'm new to Linux!!!!!!!!!!!!
[04:44] <pfein> Mortice: hmm, maybe I'll just use gajim
[04:45] <crimsun> main2: stuff isn't generally processed everyday. Wait til Wednesday.
[04:45] <r0t0r00t3r> Junto - this Easy Ubuntu sure is impressive! couldn't ask for an easier solution! thanks!
[04:46] <main2> crimsun: ok, ill be patient :-))
[04:46] <lupine_85> dil: just install it using adept
[04:52] <lupine_85> cor
[04:52] <lupine_85> OpenOffice can use accelerated OpenGL
[04:53] <nickste> lupine_85: I tried the dig command, but now the domain name is not resolving at all... any ideas?
[05:01] <lupine_85> nickste: the domain is broken then
[05:01] <lupine_85> check it's config
[05:01] <nickste> broken, as in not pointing to the dns servers specified?
[05:05] <pfein> how can I turn off the zillions-of-letters-on-Ctrl in konqueror?
[05:06] <Jucato> hm... now where have I seen the link to do that...

[05:13] <mngrif> after...?
[05:13] <visik7> after have you removed all gnome
[05:14] <visik7> reinstall firefox for example
[05:15] <mngrif> Jucato: exactly what i was looking for, thankyou
[05:16] <visik7> or removing some libgnome-something
[05:16] <mngrif> visik7: doing what you suggest is how you break a debian-based distro...
[05:17] <visik7> why ?
[05:17] <mngrif> dpkg really doesn't like having random things uninstalled
[05:17] <visik7> never broken my sistem removing gtk
[05:17] <mngrif> it's not all knowing as some would have others think
[05:17] <visik7> using apt remove all the dependant packages
[05:17] <mngrif> lucky you, or, you don't use gtk-based stuff
[05:18] <visik7> I use gtk based stuff like firefox
[05:18] <visik7> but dependancies works
[05:18] <visik7> just reinstlled firefox after have removed all the other

[05:47] <pfein> can I install downloaded .deb's via apt-get?
[05:47] <Jucato> pfein: nope. use dpkg instead
[05:48] <Jucato> dpkg -i <package>
[05:48] <gekko`> from time to time kdm restarts by itself, anybody know how i could fix it?
[05:48] <mike__> need help with kxdocker
[05:48] <Jucato> err.. sudo dpkg -i package
[05:48] <flaccid> any suexec gurus here
[05:48] <polo3> hi
[05:48] <pfein> Jucato: hmm, it didn't pull dependencies...
[05:48] <mike__> need help launching kxdocker i get an error
[05:49] <Jucato> pfein: of course it won't. :)
[05:49] <Jucato> .deb never pulls dependencies. that's why we try to use APT as much as possible
[05:49] <pfein> Jucato: ok, is there a *friendly* way to do this?
[05:49] <Jucato> pfein: installing .deb files and pull dependencies automatically? nope. :(
[05:50] <Jucato> pfein: what are you trying to install anyway?
[05:50] <mike__> can anyone help me with kxdocker
[05:50] <pfein> Jucato: eh, it's just a version bump from edgy (fixes some annoying bugs).
[05:50] <pfein> Jucato: it's python based, no link issues
[05:50] <Dr_willis> mike__,  you may want to give a little bit of details...
[05:50] <Jucato> pfein: er.. don't do that
[05:50] <pfein> Jucato: no?
[05:51] <flaccid> can i recompile suexec with 2 docroots/data dirs ?
[05:51] <Jucato> don't mix Dapper with Edgy packages
[05:51] <pfein> Jucato: umm, why?
[05:51] <Dr_willis> crashy system.
[05:51] <Jucato> pfein: because they are from different releases with different versions and different dependencies
[05:51] <Dr_willis> and eventually ya get into lib conflicets and other issues.
[05:51] <Jucato> mix them, and you may (or may not) hose your system
[05:52] <mike__> can somone tell me what this error means! http://pastebin.ca/181973
[05:53] <pfein> Jucato, Dr_willis: yeah, ok.  But this is a pure-python app, and the only thing that changed b/w versions are internal (to the app) bugfixes
[05:53] <Dr_willis> mike__,  looks like it cant find the config files --> please install right kxdocker_conf.xml
[05:53] <pfein> it's not gonna hork up apt though, correct?
[05:53] <mike__> Dr_willis:  how can i fix it?
[05:53] <Jucato> pfein: the fact that it needs dependencies that are not installed (most python stuff are installed already) means that there might be a possible conflict
[05:53] <Dr_willis> mike__,  reread the install docs for that program and find/install that file. I guess.
[05:54] <mike__> Dr_willis:  i installed it with sudo apt-get install
[05:54] <Dr_willis> file a bug report then I guess.
[05:55] <mike__> Dr_willis:  how can i remove it, so i can install it from source
[05:55] <Dr_willis> you DID install kxdocker and kxdocker-data ?
[05:57] <mike__> Dr_willis: thanks needed the data thign
[05:57] <Dr_willis> i just installed the thing... and i rember why i hate those kind of things.. :P
[05:59] <mike__> Dr_willis:  nope the data thign didnt work
[05:59] <mike__> Dr_willis: how can i remove it
[05:59] <Dr_willis> it just worked for me.
[05:59] <Dr_willis> apt-get remove
[05:59] <Dr_willis> !apt-get
[05:59] <ubotu> apt is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto  -  Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[06:02] <mike__> Dr_willis:  kxdocker worked for you?
[06:02] <gnomefreak> do i have to do anything in amarok to save the playlists after importing?
[06:02] <Jucato> afaik, no
[06:03] <gnomefreak> cool :)
[06:03] <Dr_willis> mike__,  yes it worked fine
[06:03] <Dr_willis> the program itself sort of sucks.. but it did run
[06:03] <mike__> hmmm
[06:05] <Jucato> gnomefreak: just be careful. a playlist/song that's deleted in Amarok will be deleted from the hard disk...
[06:05] <gnomefreak> oh good ie
[06:05] <gnomefreak> goodie
[06:06] <Jucato> for songs, just be sure to use Remove from playlist rather than delete :P
[06:06] <lsproc> I have installed the latest nvidia driver and I get this error: http://lsproc.pastebin.ca/181984
[06:06] <NthDegree> 1 sec lsproc
[06:07] <gnomefreak> k
[06:07] <NthDegree> i know the issue
[06:07] <NthDegree> you need to compile a working nVidia driver for the kernel
[06:07] <lsproc> why, im using nvidia-glx
[06:07] <NthDegree> using the .run package off the nVidia site
[06:07] <lsproc> why cant i use the ubuntu packages
[06:07] <NthDegree> because the packagers who make them always break them
[06:08] <Hawkwind> You should be able to.  No reason to be forced to use the .run files
[06:08] <gnomefreak> lsproc: on dapper
[06:08] <lsproc> yes
[06:08] <Hawkwind> I've used the dapper packages without issues and I'm all the way up to using the 2.6.18 kernel currently
[06:08] <gnomefreak> lsproc: you cant use the beta drivers on dapper
[06:08] <lsproc> ?
[06:08] <lsproc> nvidia-glx is beta?
[06:08] <Hawkwind> gnomefreak: Yes you can
[06:08] <Hawkwind> nvidia-glx isn't beta though
[06:08] <gnomefreak> no ls
[06:08] <Jucato> lsproc: have you installed the proper linux-restricted-modules for your kernel?
[06:08] <gnomefreak> from nvidia there are beta drivers
[06:09] <uwo> hi all: does n1 know how i could rip a mms stream?
[06:09] <lsproc> Jucato: Isnt that done by default?
[06:09] <Hawkwind> gnomefreak: I'm using the 9625 drivers as we speak
[06:09] <gnomefreak> Hawkwind: i understand they dont work on xorg7.0
[06:09] <Hawkwind> gnomefreak: With absolutely no issues
[06:09] <Jucato> lsproc: I don't think so
[06:09] <lsproc> :(
[06:09] <lsproc> ah
[06:09] <lsproc> now, i want to set the driver back
[06:09] <Hawkwind> gnomefreak: That's incorrect.  They work perfectly with Xorg 7.0 and 7.1
[06:09] <NthDegree> lsproc, you mentioned the latest drivers - if you say "latest" to me it says the latest one can possibly get
[06:09] <lsproc> but i cant boot kubuntu, and no way to write to the file
[06:09] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[06:09] <NthDegree> lsproc, try apt-get install linux-restricted-modules
[06:09] <Hawkwind> NthDegree: He means the latest available from Ubuntu, which is 8762
[06:10] <Jucato> lsproc: press Ctrl+Alt+F1 when you get to the part where you're stuck with the bootsplash image
[06:10] <NthDegree> yes you can lsproc
[06:10] <Jucato> you'll be able to login into a command line session
[06:10] <NthDegree> use a virtual terminal
[06:10] <lsproc> gah
[06:10] <NthDegree> Ctrl+Alt+F1 to F6 all should work
[06:10] <Jucato> lsproc: no choice there. you have to do things by hand :)
[06:10] <jackster> anyone familiar with python?
[06:11] <NthDegree> jackster, try #python
[06:11] <jackster> okeydokey
[06:11] <lsproc> Jucato: Not the easiest thing to do right now :(
[06:11] <NthDegree> unless you need help with apt-getting it :p
[06:11] <Jucato> lsproc: yes, specially if you're just beginning
[06:11] <lsproc> is there a ext3 write driver for windows
[06:11] <lsproc> or some write software
[06:12] <lsproc> so i can edit xorg.conf
[06:12] <NthDegree> lsproc there is but not for XP/2003/2000
[06:12] <lsproc> :(
[06:12] <NthDegree> for 95 was the latest
[06:12] <NthDegree> it was for ext2
[06:12] <Jucato> lsproc: you need to download the proper linux-restricted-modules, and you can't do that from windows
[06:12] <gnomefreak> 98
[06:12] <lsproc> i was going to ajust the xorg.conf back to nv
[06:12] <NthDegree> well it works on 98 but was made for 95
[06:12] <NthDegree> lsproc you can
[06:13] <NthDegree> dude oh so easy
[06:13] <NthDegree> boot up kubuntu
[06:13] <gnomefreak> hint use live cd
[06:13] <NthDegree> hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 or Ctrl+Alt+F2 or Ctrl+Alt+F3 or Ctrl+Alt+F4 or Ctrl+Alt+F5 or Ctrl+Alt+F6
[06:13] <NthDegree> then login
[06:14] <raven79> i must leave...bye guys and thanks for your help ;)
[06:14] <raven79> see you soon
[06:14] <NthDegree> then do a sudo apt-get install nano && sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:14] <Jucato> NthDegree: nano's installed by default
[06:14] <lsproc> beat me :P
[06:14] <NthDegree> on dapper it's vim
[06:15] <NthDegree> on edgy it is nano
[06:15] <lsproc> no
[06:15] <Jucato> NthDegree: they're both installed by default
[06:15] <lsproc> its been nano since 5.04
[06:15] <NthDegree> :|
[06:15] <NthDegree> it's never installed by default for me
[06:15] <gnomefreak> vim cant be default
[06:15] <NthDegree> alternate CD doesn't do it :|
[06:15] <gnomefreak> its not user freindly enough
[06:15] <Jucato> gnomefreak: hehe :P
[06:15] <NthDegree> oh it is
[06:16] <NthDegree> people just don't know how to press insert
[06:16] <NthDegree> which was standard for most DOS era applications
[06:16] <gnomefreak> vim doesnt have insert it has i
[06:16] <gnomefreak> vim-gtk has insert
[06:16] <NthDegree> uh pressing insert works
[06:17] <Jucato> hm.. getting offtopic... helping lsproc here, remember?
[06:17] <lsproc> heh
[06:17] <lsproc> you have already solved the problem
[06:17] <lsproc> just me getting around to fixing it
[06:17] <lsproc> i dont want to reboot or wait for the livecd to boot
[06:18] <NthDegree> livecd never boots for me
[06:18] <NthDegree> closest I get is a knoppix liveCD then debootstrap
[06:18] <NthDegree> oh and dist upgrade :p
[06:26] <lsproc> lets fix this
[06:27] <AshDragon> Can anyone help with Kppp?
[06:28] <kingju> hi everyone
[06:28] <kingju> can i ask a ? about a screensaver bug here ?
[06:30] <flaccid> !ask > kingju
[06:30] <kingju> it concerns http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=42637 Screensaver Fix for Kubuntu 6.06
[06:31] <kingju> i have this bug ; the screensaver don't work... but i have not this version of kdebase
[06:31] <lsproc> Thanks
[06:31] <lsproc> i have noted one problem though
[06:31] <lsproc> and it seems to be the repos fault
[06:31] <flaccid> kingju: it does say
[06:31] <flaccid> The binaries contained within the package are built against KDE 3.5.3 (kdebase_3.5.3-0ubuntu0.2).		
[06:31] <flaccid>  You MUST be using that specific KDE version of Kubuntu to ensure maximum stability.
[06:32] <lsproc> All: Who was helping me with my nVidia problem?
[06:32] <kingju> i read MUST so i do anything !
[06:32] <Jucato> lsproc: what's the problem?
[06:33] <flaccid> kingju: so use the correct base
[06:33] <lsproc> Jucato: It seems, there is no linux-restricted-modules package for 2.6.27
[06:33] <lsproc> sorry
[06:33] <lsproc> 2.6.15-27
[06:34] <flaccid> lsproc: i have ii  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-27-686 2.6.15.11-5                            Non-free Linux 2.6.15 modules on PPro/Celero
[06:34] <AshDragon> Can anyone help with Kppp? It will connect and run fine for about 3 minutes... then hangup... anyone?
[06:34] <lupine_85> !info linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-27-386

[06:34] <Jucato> lsproc: there is. it's in dapper-security I think
[06:34] <flaccid> restricted
[06:35] <Jucato> dapper-security restricted
[06:35] <echo1> Does anyone know if the azures in the repository is the fixed one?  I recall a week or two ago the respository version was broken
[06:35] <lsproc> ahaha
[06:35] <flaccid> yeah thats it
[06:38] <lsproc> thanks for all your help everyone (if only ##php was this nice :P)
[06:38] <lsproc> bye
[06:39] <flaccid> hehe
[06:39] <Jucato> :P
[06:39] <AshDragon> Can anyone help with Kppp? It will connect and run fine for about 3 minutes... then hangup... anyone?
[06:39] <flaccid> i had a fight with the idiots in #fedora before was stupid
[06:40] <Admiral_Chicago> flaccid, what about?
[06:41] <flaccid> i was trying to help someone with ati drivers
[06:41] <Admiral_Chicago> alright
[06:41] <flaccid> the dude ended up leaving coz they were more concerning with giving me shit than helping him
[06:41] <flaccid> not that they could help him..
[06:42] <Admiral_Chicago> flaccid, i've had that happen a few times on ubuntu channels
[06:42] <Admiral_Chicago> if someone asks a question and don't get a responsce i usually  tell them i can't help
[06:42] <Admiral_Chicago> better than ignoring them
[06:42] <AshDragon> Can anyone help with Kppp? It will connect and run fine for about 3 minutes... then hangup... anyone?
[06:43] <Admiral_Chicago> AshDragon, sorry i have no idea
[06:43] <AshDragon> me either... thanks
[06:43] <Admiral_Chicago> AshDragon, you check the forums?
[06:44] <AshDragon> well... it connects... and looks like it runs a script, once that is done it disconnects.... and i couldnt find anything like it
[06:44] <flaccid> Admiral_Chicago: nah it wasn't like that. they said they could help but didn't provide any real help
[06:45] <Admiral_Chicago> flaccid, whatever
[06:45] <Admiral_Chicago> they are probably upset that nobody like fedora anymore
[06:45] <Admiral_Chicago> AshDragon, not sure waht you mean
[06:45] <Admiral_Chicago> and i have class now
[06:45] <flaccid> i don't actually say anything against fedora or ubuntu or anything
[06:46] <flaccid> don't=didn't
[06:46] <apeman2020> i just added a new disk to my system, how do i format?
[06:46] <lupine_85> mkfs

[06:48] <Jucato> AshDragon: it's ok. first time :)
[06:49] <lampshade> Does anyone have a link for setting up flash on Ubuntu for konqueror (While running in gnome?)
[06:50] <Jucato> lampshade: install flashplugin-nonfree.
[06:50] <lampshade> it is
[06:50] <Hawkwind> !flash
[06:50] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:50] <lampshade> and it works for Firefox
[06:50] <lampshade> but I added konqueror later after I got sick of ffox
[06:50] <Hawkwind> Hah, flashplugin-nonfree is still broken though :P
[06:50] <Jucato> lampshade: then in Konqueror, go to Settings > Configure Konqueror > Plugins > Scan for new plugins, and click on Apply or OK
[06:50] <Jucato> Hawkwind: nope
[06:50] <Hawkwind> Jucato: It's not ?
[06:50] <Jucato> not anymore
[06:51] <Jucato> since Saturday, iirc
[06:51] <cesar> HI ALL
[06:51] <cesar> Anyone knows how to set a new repository with EXTENDED packets
[06:51] <cesar> such as "amsn" and similar ?
[06:51] <lampshade> Jucato: that worked, ha, I swore I tried that, but it seems to work now.  Oh well, thanks
[06:52] <Jucato> !repos
[06:52] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[06:52] <Jucato> cesar: try that link ^^^
[06:52] <cesar> OK Jucate
[06:52] <cesar> I'll do
[06:52] <Jucato> !amsn
[06:52] <ubotu> amsn: An MSN messenger written in tcl. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.95-1 (dapper), package size 2233 kB, installed size 7852 kB
[06:53] <Jucato> info for amsn ^^^
[06:53] <cesar> thanks :)
[06:53] <flaccid> i might try that
[06:53] <cesar> SEEMS OK
[06:54] <cesar> THANKS SO MUCH, Jucato, ubotu
[06:54] <Jucato> cesar: please try not to use CAPS :)
[06:54] <flaccid> what TK does it ue
[06:54] <cesar> ok ;-)
[06:54] <flaccid> is amsn gtk or qt
[06:54] <cesar> kubuntu is easier than Gentoo linux, isn't ?
[06:55] <fuci> Is there a way to make Konsole make the links (http://.....) clickable? The way that gnome-terminal does?
[06:55] <cesar> I was using Potato for a long time
[06:55] <cesar> xD
[06:55] <cesar> Fuci: see options
[06:55] <Jucato> fuci: no, but you can use Klipper (clipboard) for that
[06:55] <cesar> amsn is GTK
[06:55] <fuci> Jucato: stupid Konsole :(
[06:55] <cesar> ok guys, greetings from Spain (Barcelona)
[06:56] <Jucato> fuci: right-click on Klipper in the system tray, then select "Enable Actions". everytime you highlight a link, Klipper will ask you what to do with it (like open it in a browser)
[06:56] <fuci> oo
[06:56] <fuci> gonna try that
[06:56] <Jucato> fuci: not really. imho, clicking a link in a command line is just an add-on feature. not something that has to be absolutely there...
[06:57] <fuci> True that, but I think it's very useful feature.
[06:58] <Jucato> well, no doubt about that :)
[06:58] <fuci> :p
[07:02] <DaSkreech> Ooooooh the Humanity
[07:03] <Jucato> ??
[07:03] <apeman2020> how do i use fdisk to partition all available space?
[07:03] <DaSkreech> My company bought a book on how to use Linux
[07:03] <DaSkreech> It came as an e-book
[07:03] <DaSkreech> which it seems cannot be read on Linux
[07:03] <DaSkreech> >_<
[07:03] <Jucato> huh?? is that supposed to happen?
[07:04] <lampshade> haha another quick question, does anyone know a shortcut for appending on the www and .com onto URL's in konqueror?  I'm googling around but not finding it :(
[07:06] <DaSkreech> Or not
[07:06] <DaSkreech> I was typing the answer to that
[07:06] <DaSkreech> apeman2020: Ever used fdisk?
[07:06] <DaSkreech> Jucato: Logged back into KDE yet?
[07:07] <Jucato> heh of course I have :P
[07:07] <kutan> Hello people
[07:07] <Jucato> DaSkreech: I turned off sub-pixel hintin, but still have anti-aliasing enabled. is that ok?
[07:07] <kutan> Can someone tell me how to use chmod?
[07:08] <kutan> I looked at 'info chmod' but it just confused me..
[07:08] <Jucato> chmod +/-mode <file>
[07:08] <kutan> ah okay thanks
[07:08] <kutan> ...again
[07:08] <Ash-Fox> Where would be the best place to define system wide aliases for bash in Kubuntu?
[07:08] <apeman2020> DaSkreech: sure..
[07:10] <gnomefreak> Ash-Fox: ~/.bashrc
[07:10] <Jucato> Ash-Fox: just a guess, /etc/bash.bash_aliases (make one if it doesn't exist)
[07:10] <Jucato> gnomefreak: "system wide" :P
[07:10] <gnomefreak> eh
[07:11] <Ash-Fox> Jucato, thankyou :)
[07:11] <rodrigo> someone brazilian?
[07:11] <Pensa`MIA> just a little side question, has anyone gotten ta spring to run on kubuntu?
[07:11] <omar> rodrigo: eu falo
[07:11] <Jucato> !br
[07:11] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[07:11] <rodrigo> omar: estou com problemas
[07:12] <omar> rodrigo: que foi
[07:12] <DaSkreech> Jucato: I guess it's whatever visually pleases you :)
[07:12] <DaSkreech> Ahhhhhh KDE :)
[07:12] <Jucato> DaSkreech: does it make a difference if sub-pixel hinting is on/off?
[07:13] <DaSkreech> Jucato: Apparently
[07:13] <DaSkreech> I aaaaahhhed when I turned it on and relogged back in
[07:13] <Jucato> aaaaaah
[07:14] <DaSkreech> apeman2020: Sorry what was the question again?
[07:14] <kieron_> anybody know a good ebook reader for linux?
[07:15] <DaSkreech> kieron_: Thank you!
[07:15] <Jucato> kieron_: PDF format?
[07:15] <DaSkreech> ebx.etd
[07:15] <Jucato> yikes.. what on earth is that?
[07:16] <DaSkreech> An XML file that fetches your actual book with your identity and the signature of the Adobereader
[07:16] <kieron_> its a .lit file
[07:16] <Jucato> oh... KPDF can't handle it?
[07:16] <Jucato> hm... isn't acrobatreader available in Linux?
[07:17] <DaSkreech> http://www.adobe.com/support/ebookrdrfaq.html#linux
[07:17] <DaSkreech> kieron_: tried openeing it in KPDF?
[07:18] <Jucato> !acroread
[07:18] <ubotu> acroread: Adobe Acrobat Reader: Portable Document Format file viewer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 7.0.1-0.0.ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 22263 kB, installed size 53192 kB (Only available for i386)
[07:18] <Jucato> DaSkreech:  ^^^^
[07:20] <DaSkreech> Why can't I manage repos in adept in edgy?
[07:20] <lecci> what is the command like "cd.."?
[07:20] <Jucato> DaSkreech: it's a bug. I filed it already
[07:21] <Jucato> lecci: "cd .."
[07:21] <DaSkreech> Ah you think someone wouldhave noted it already :)
[07:21] <Jucato> space in between cd and ..
[07:21] <DaSkreech> lecci: You need a space
[07:21] <lecci> ok ty
[07:21] <Jucato> it was one of the first things I did upon testing Knot 2
[07:23] <Jucato> DaSkreech: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=133388
[07:23] <DaSkreech> Apparently I was downloading from mulktiverse :)
[07:24] <DaSkreech> Jucato: http://www.adobe.com/support/ebookrdrfaq.html#linux
[07:24] <Jucato> DaSkreech: I've read that already... you linked to it twice :)
[07:25] <Jucato> but that doesn't explain why there's an acroread package in multiverse
[07:25] <DaSkreech> Ok I was just wondering why you pointed me at acroread since it obviously does NOT have ebook functionality
[07:25] <Jucato> ah
[07:25] <Jucato> ok :)
[07:25] <DaSkreech> It's a ebook pluginwhich they are not releasing for linux
[07:25] <Jucato> I thought that acroread could read ebooks :P
[07:25] <DaSkreech> though all the (children present) ebook sites say can easily be read on Windows palm macintosh and Linux
[07:26] <kutan> Hey Jucato, what you told me didn't work
[07:26] <kutan> about the uhm.. chmod
[07:26] <seb> Hello.
[07:26] <DaSkreech> kutan: have you tried man chmod?
[07:26] <kutan> yeah
[07:26] <Jucato> kutan: something like "chmod +r <file>"
[07:26] <kutan> I just didn't understand the manual
[07:27] <DaSkreech> kutan: Where are you lost?
[07:27] <Jucato> kutan: unless you're trying it on a file owned by root, in which case you need to use sudo
[07:27] <seb> I installed vsftpd, and it give read-only access to anonymous users. Vergy good. But where in teh File System do I add files so that anonymou users can download them?
[07:27] <kutan> localhost% chmod +a
[07:27] <kutan> chmod: wrong mode
[07:28] <DaSkreech> You can't plus an a
[07:28] <Jucato> kutan: if you want to be specific, you could do "chmod u+x <file>" which gives executable permissions only to the owner
[07:28] <DaSkreech> only a (r)ead (w)rite or an e(x)ecute
[07:28] <kutan> ...oh
[07:28] <DaSkreech> +a should be all
[07:28] <Jucato> kutan: "a" falls under the "ugoa" options
[07:29] <Jucato> u = user/owner, g = group, o = others, a = all
[07:29] <DaSkreech> but that's for the owner
[07:29] <kutan> I tried a and it didn't work though...
[07:29] <kutan> ohh I get it
[07:29] <DaSkreech> as Jucato is obviously pointing out :)
[07:29] <kutan> a+rwx would work?
[07:29] <Jucato> yes
[07:29] <DaSkreech> Sould
[07:29] <DaSkreech> should
[07:29] <kutan> alright thanks
[07:30] <DaSkreech> WOuldn't it be great to always have too much help :)
[07:30] <Jucato> hm...
[07:30] <kutan> Bleh didn't work still
[07:30] <Jucato> kutan: what's the error message this time?
[07:31] <kutan> still says wrong mode
[07:31] <Jucato> what's the exact command you are typing?
[07:31] <kutan> chmod a+rwx filename
[07:32] <kutan> also tried just "chmod o+r filename"
[07:32] <Jucato> kutan: try removing "a". it's the default action anyway
[07:32] <Jucato> who ones the file, btw?
[07:32] <DaSkreech> owns
[07:32] <Jucato> lol
[07:33] <kutan> Someone I know in a hacking community started a website called youhack.org
[07:33] <kunde> hi ich bins der Eisiger bin ich hier richtig
[07:33] <Jucato> who "owns" the file, btw
[07:33] <Jucato> kutan: no, I mean who owns it? root? your user?
[07:33] <kutan> oh.. I guess root
[07:33] <Jucato> rawr!!
 kutan: unless you're trying it on a file owned by root, in which case you need to use sudo
[07:34] <Jucato> kutan: ls -l filename to check
[07:34] <kutan> You can't use sudo, he made it so the person only can use set commands
[07:35] <Jucato> hm...

[07:39] <SAngeli> Hi, I am having troubles with kwallet. I run ubuntu (K) and do run kmail as mail client. I do not want kwallet to function at this time. So, anytime I start kmail it asks me for kwallet to load a password and userID or similar. How to remove completely this windows to load and free kmail from kwallet?
[07:39] <alexicon> SAngeli: maybe in kcontrol there is a way to tell kwallet not to prompt
[07:40] <SAngeli> could be. Do you know where to look in it?
[07:40] <alexicon> id becareful using kmail.. i havent used it in a year or so now because last time it ate all of my mail
[07:40] <alexicon> accessibility probably SAngeli
[07:40] <alexicon> anyone here know anything about dcop or iceauth
[07:41] <SAngeli> nope
[07:41] <alexicon> :(
[07:41] <SAngeli> found it
[07:41] <abattoir> alexicon: try 'sudo chown -R user /home/user' where user is the name of your user
[07:41] <SAngeli> Security and Policy
[07:41] <alexicon> yeah abattoir thats what fixed it last night
[07:41] <alexicon> but the .DCOP files are missing apparently
[07:41] <alexicon> i copied them when i tried starting dcopserver on its own
[07:41] <alexicon> but it fails to fully start still
[07:42] <abattoir> hmm, did you try it again?
[07:42] <DaSkreech> What is the command toe supposed to give you?

[07:50] <alexicon> abattoir: nup hasnt worked :/ yesterday i found it was the wrong user group in a lot of places, i fixed and it was fine
[07:50] <alexicon> but again when i ran konq today as root... everythings broken

[08:01] <alexicon> searayman: was X previously working, or is this a fresh install
[08:01] <alexicon> compiling what
[08:01] <DaSkreech> searayman: try installing teh X dev lib
[08:01] <seumas> searayman: Are the xorg dev packages installed? They may need to be.
[08:01] <searayman> seumas:  how do i check that?
[08:02] <searayman> seumas: just a heads up i am on ubuntu and running a kde kubuntu session
[08:02] <cpk1> DaSkreech: you know ubuntu has a billboard ad in San Francisco?
[08:02] <alexicon> really where?? i'll check it out today!
[08:02] <seumas> searayman: Pull up the package manager (adept?) and do a search on xorg-dev (I think that's it) and see if there's a match that shows status "installed".
[08:03] <cpk1> alexicon: you talking to me?
[08:03] <alexicon> anyone know anything about iceauth and dcopserver
[08:03] <alexicon> yeah cpk1
[08:03] <cpk1> coming up the 101 into sf

[08:03] <alexicon> ok so from the south
[08:03] <alexicon> hrm well maybe i'll get to check it out on my way to the airport thursday
[08:04] <alexicon> thats pretty cool tho
[08:04] <cpk1> i know you see it before the millbrae bart station
[08:04] <alexicon> excellent
[08:04] <cpk1> going north on the 101
[08:04] <alexicon> heh almost went down that way to collect my brother from sfo today
[08:05] <cpk1> wonder where they get the money for ads though =P
[08:05] <alexicon> abattoir: still around??
[08:05] <alexicon> lol yeah cpk1
[08:05] <alexicon> maybe it was a good year for donations :P
[08:06] <alexicon> ugg maybe i'll try reinstalling kde again
[08:06] <searayman> seumas: i didnt have that installed
[08:07] <copter_> hi, ive got strange problem. my dvd recorder fails to eject cd after read error on scratched cd. pumount, umount, eject doesnt work. any tips?
[08:07] <alexicon> copter_: any processes still hanging onto the drive?
[08:07] <flaccid> copter_: how about eject cdrom
[08:08] <alexicon> umount -f might let go of the media
[08:08] <copter_> alexicon: probably not
[08:08] <copter_> flaccid: no luck here either
[08:08] <seumas> searayman: I think you need to install them. However, I'm new to the desktop world (but been using linux for almost eight years) so I can't authoritatively say that you need xorg-dev. You can install and uninstall it if needed... or maybe get a second opinion to confirm it. :)
[08:08] <searayman> can i have help installing kopete style?
[08:09] <copter_> alexicon: umount -f says /cdrom not mounted
[08:09] <seumas> searayman: What's up? They should usually install automatically if you use the "install new theme" button.
[08:09] <alexicon> kopete style??
[08:09] <huy> hello
[08:09] <cpk1> is it mounted as /cdrom?
[08:09] <alexicon> hi huy
[08:09] <copter_> alexicon: kicker icon says it is still mounted
[08:09] <copter_> cpk1: sure
[08:09] <alexicon> what icon in kicker?
[08:09] <copter_> alexicon: em, media manager or something like that
[08:09] <huy> argh i tried using irssi
[08:09] <aka_foley> can somebody help me how to format my second hdd & delete all partitions with the terminal
[08:10] <alexicon> does any cd/dvd come up when you run mount?
[08:10] <huy> gave u and use this
[08:10] <huy> *up
[08:10] <copter_> wow, it ejected just a moment ago. after about 5 minutes...
[08:10] <alexicon> lol
[08:10] <copter_> what could cause this?
[08:10] <alexicon> some process had hold of it i guess
[08:10] <alexicon> was still trying to read it or something
[08:10] <copter_> system logs says read error all the time
[08:11] <aka_foley> please help me
[08:11] <copter_> yes, some process, but which one?
[08:11] <seumas> searayman: If you go to Settings->Configuration->Apperance->Chat Window in Kopete, you can click the "get new" icon. It'll give you choices to pick from. CLick them, select install -- then just select whichever installed one to switch to it.
[08:11] <alexicon> aka_foley: look at cfdisk and parted
[08:11] <alexicon> i couldnt walk you through it tho
[08:12] <alexicon> iceauth and dcopserver anyone?? /usr/X11R6/bin/iceauth:  timeout in locking authority file /home/alexis/.ICEauthority

[08:21] <huy> does anybody know how to get rails working with apache2?
[08:22] <seumas> hut: Erm. Might want to go ask in #rubyonrails
[08:23] <huy> thank you
[08:24] <flaccid> its so late here
[08:29] <flaccid> i'm thinking how much would a vendor buy a web standards gui for their product eg. modem/router
[08:29] <alexicon> would a vendor buy?
[08:29] <flaccid> yes
[08:29] <alexicon> dont they have their own dev teams heh
[08:29] <flaccid> if it all...
[08:29] <flaccid> yes they do
[08:29] <flaccid> but they can't do standards
[08:29] <alexicon> hrmm
[08:30] <flaccid> in fact
[08:30] <bedner> witam
[08:30] <bedner> oooo dziaa
[08:30] <flaccid> i'm sure it doesn't exist
[08:31] <alexicon> hrm
[08:31] <flaccid> ever tried to admin your router via lynx ?
[08:31] <flaccid> or met a blind person trying to do it
[08:31] <alexicon> lol no flaccid, i use telnet instead
[08:31] <alexicon> hrmm i see your point there tho
[08:31] <flaccid> most soho network products don't have telnet
[08:32] <alexicon> accessibility
[08:32] <flaccid> what you got a netgear or something
[08:32] <alexicon> at that time it was speedtouch, relaly crap router
[08:32] <alexicon> using linksys now, but never tried telnet on it
[08:32] <lksdjfls> anyone here willing to help me straighten out a SATA problem with kubuntu?
[08:32] <alexicon> what kinda sata prob ;P
[08:32] <flaccid> i think only a few linksys do telnet
[08:32] <seumas> alexicon: install some open firmware on that sucker and get QoS, telnet/sshd, etc. :)
[08:33] <alexicon> hehehe seumas
[08:33] <flaccid> seumas: what on the linksys?
[08:33] <alexicon> i might try that on my spare netgear wifi router
[08:34] <seumas> alexicon: Yep. If you have a the wmg54 or whatever - go do a google for Hyperwrt (I'm running 2.1b1 + Thibor14). Adds all you'd ever want to the linksys. :)
[08:34] <flaccid> sureshot: tomcraft?
[08:34] <alexicon> cool
[08:34] <flaccid> thats cool as
[08:34] <flaccid> linksys are the best i reckon
[08:34] <flaccid> not that i have one
[08:35] <seumas> alexicon: Hyperwrt also adds static IPs to the DHCP setup. Pretty nice.
[08:36] <flaccid> static dhcp :)

[08:48] <nick_> what do you mean?
[08:48] <fdoving> nick_: and it's because a module in one of the python scripts that should be loading the module, can't be loaded itself. or something like that.
[08:48] <fdoving> nick_: you're running edgy right?

[08:56] <fdoving> nick_: and if you could add the output of "kcmshell displayconfig" too, that would help in fixing the bug.

[09:36] <fdoving> gsuveg: not the dropdown menu fonts.
[09:36] <flaccid> yah thats right
[09:37] <flaccid> my opera looks sexy with the kde longing skin and nice font
[09:37] <gsuveg> fdoving: the dropdown menu
[09:37] <flaccid> which reminds
[09:37] <flaccid> time to update to 9.02
[09:38] <fdoving> gsuveg: the dropdown menu is from qt4, atleast here on my opera 9.01
[09:38] <gsuveg> flaccid: im use weekly build
[09:38] <gsuveg> fdoving: for me not, i have an old one ~/.opra
[09:39] <flaccid> fdoving: its configurable in opera
[09:39] <flaccid> gsuveg: yeah i just havnt installed the weekly build yet
[09:40] <gsuveg> if i remove my .opera fonts are good
[09:40] <flaccid> gsuveg: you its in preferences
[09:40] <fdoving> flaccid: i know the entry is there. but changing it doesn't change anything.
[09:40] <flaccid> i mean opera preferences
[09:40] <flaccid> it does for me
[09:40] <flaccid> hmm
[09:41] <flaccid> gsuveg: what opera build you using and is it the latest desktop weekly build?
[09:41] <gsuveg> http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/
[09:42] <gsuveg> grab it form this url
[09:43] <gsuveg> flaccid: you need the linux version with number '6'
[09:44] <flaccid> gsuveg: the weekly build looks the same as the prod release which is build 434 is that what you are using. check opera:about
[09:44] <gsuveg> yes.
[09:44] <flaccid> ok
[09:44] <gsuveg> latest weekly renamed to 9.02
[09:45] <flaccid> the weekly always ends up being the prod release
[09:47] <flaccid> in opera prefs. i have my Interface menus font as malayalam and it works fine
[09:49] <proog> flaccid: i tried both dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and i tried to edit the xorg.conf file.
[09:50] <proog> and even though there is only 1280x800 in the xorg.conf file, it still can't go over 1024x768 in system settings
[09:51] <rambo3> glxinfo
[09:53] <proog> any ideas for my problem?
[09:54] <flaccid> proog: edit the xorg.conf manually to set the desired resolution as default
[09:54] <proog> what?
[09:54] <proog> i edited it with nano
[09:54] <flaccid> gsuveg: goto http://
[09:54] <flaccid> ok
[09:55] <proog> and i searched through the file for 1024x768, but it was nowhere to be found
[09:55] <gsuveg> flaccid: pardon?
[09:55] <flaccid> proog: don't search, look
[09:56] <proog> flaccid: ok
[09:56] <flaccid> sorry
[09:56] <flaccid> did you restart x?
[09:56] <proog> i used nano without x
[09:56] <proog> command line :P
[09:56] <proog> cd to xorg.conf and sudo nano xorg.conf
[09:58] <proog> so x should be reloaded
[09:58] <proog> flaccid: should i paste my xorg.conf to pastebin?
[09:59] <flaccid> you need to either log off and log back in to restart of force restart
[09:59] <proog> ok
[09:59] <romin> how i can install firefox for kubuntu ?
[09:59] <flaccid> gsuveg: load http:// in your opera
[10:00] <flaccid> romin: sudo apt-get install firefox
[10:00] <romin> ok
[10:00] <flaccid> or use adept if you prefer
[10:01] <romin> and how about skype ?
[10:01] <flaccid> same
[10:02] <romin> ok
[10:02] <proog> flaccid: i rebooted, but it will still not go over 1024x768
[10:03] <flaccid> i think i misunderstood you
[10:03] <flaccid> when you did the reconfigure
[10:03] <flaccid> what resolutions did you tick?
[10:03] <proog> yes?
[10:03] <proog> 1024x768, because 1280x800 was not available
[10:04] <flaccid> but it failed it write it to xorg.conf?
[10:04] <proog> no
[10:04] <flaccid> pastebin your config
[10:04] <proog> i edited xorg.conf myself afterwards
[10:04] <flaccid> i've had the same thing happen before
[10:04] <proog> ok
[10:05] <proog> flaccid: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24800
[10:06] <proog> it is a laptop
[10:06] <flaccid> whats the aspect ratio of the monitor
[10:06] <proog> eh..?
[10:07] <flaccid> is it widescreen
[10:07] <proog> wxga i think
[10:07] <proog> so yes
[10:08] <flaccid> ok
[10:08] <flaccid> max resolution?
[10:08] <proog> 1280x800
[10:08] <flaccid> and you want 4:3 why?
[10:08] <proog> ...
[10:08] <proog> ?
[10:08] <proog> damn
[10:08] <proog> i did something stupid, didn't i?
[10:08] <flaccid> 1024 x 758 is for non-widescreen ie. 4:3
[10:09] <flaccid> no you didn't
[10:09] <proog> where do i change it?
[10:09] <flaccid> i don't understand why you want xga which is 1024x768
[10:09] <proog> i don't want 1024x768
[10:09] <proog> i want 1280x800
[10:10] <flaccid> right i misunderstand again
[10:10] <flaccid> sorry its 6:10am here
[10:10] <flaccid> so what resolution does it run at
[10:10] <proog> it runs at 1024x768
[10:11] <proog> and i want it to be 1280x800
[10:11] <flaccid> interesting
[10:11] <proog> yes
[10:11] <flaccid> what video card do you actually have
[10:11] <proog> i'm not exactly sure... let me check
[10:12] <fyrmedic> flaccid: any idea how to overcome a (break)install failure in adept
[10:13] <Gaz> hello all
[10:13] <fyrmedic> hiya gaz
[10:13] <Gaz> hey :)
[10:13] <proog> flaccid: sorry, i can't really find out
[10:14] <proog> it doesn't say so on the box
[10:14] <Gaz> i've a small problem with kubuntu
[10:14] <fyrmedic> me too
[10:14] <Gaz> heh, do not we all :D
[10:14] <flaccid> fyrmedic: run apt-get instead from cli
[10:15] <flaccid> proog: is it really Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device
[10:15] <proog> i'm not sure
[10:15] <flaccid> lookup your notebook on the manufacturers site
[10:15] <fyrmedic> flaccid: that is what I was goin to do. "apt-get install amarok" is the command right"
[10:15] <proog> it is integrated
[10:16] <flaccid> fyrmedic: sure
[10:16] <fyrmedic> lol
[10:17] <Gaz> i wonder if anyone could poss help me: i downloaded a google-video and saved it to my home file under the 'avi' extension. file downloaded as per normal until the download finished. now the file size of the original video was stated at well over 300megs. Kubuntu says that it is just over 2 megs. Also, it has a padlock icon and says file does not exist and also unable to place in the wastebin
[10:17] <flaccid> proog: i810 driver for that card may not do widescren resolutions by default. its hard to say
[10:17] <proog> :(
[10:18] <flaccid> proog: what does lspci say about your video card
[10:18] <Gaz> i would like to delete this video file, and then try a new download as its a cracking video so i hear :)
[10:18] <rambo3> use lshw -C display
[10:18] <proog> lshw -C display
[10:19] <proog> was that to me, rambo3?
[10:19] <flaccid> yeah that'll do
[10:19] <flaccid> yeah
[10:19] <flaccid> Gaz: remove in konsole
[10:19] <proog> can i paste the output here?
[10:19] <Gaz> whats the command?
[10:19] <flaccid> proog: just paste the product: line

[10:22] <Gaz> /home/gary/Videos
[10:22] <flaccid> proog: people with same issue
[10:22] <flaccid> Gaz: rm /home/gary/Videos/nameofvideo.ext
[10:22] <flaccid> replace navofvideo.ext with the filename
[10:23] <flaccid> if i could spell
[10:23] <Gaz> rm: cannot remove `/home/gary/Videos/SacredWeedsSalviaDiv.avi.part': No such file or directory
[10:24] <flaccid> hmm i wouldn't mind that video
[10:24] <Gaz> yet i can see the file quite cleary in konqueror
[10:24] <flaccid> can you still see it in kde ?
[10:24] <flaccid> right click and goto properties
[10:24] <Gaz> lol it is sposed to be a great video :)
[10:25] <Gaz> okay
[10:26] <flaccid> what does it say for Location:

[10:29] <Gaz> guess i'll do a reboot :)
[10:29] <Gaz> brb
[10:29] <flaccid> rebooting sounds stupid, but if you reboot and its still there, its totally weird
[10:29] <flaccid> oi
[10:29] <proog> flaccid: but in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=27029 the tutorial doesn't show 1280x800 in the list! which MODE do you think i should choose?
[10:29] <fdoving> Gaz: cd ~/Videos/;ls *.part

[10:31] <flaccid> proog: that looks like only 4:3 ratio
[10:32] <flaccid> !xgl > jan_
[10:32] <proog> nooo
[10:32] <flaccid> marcelloDoItBeTt: sudo /etc/apt/sources.lst
[10:32] <proog> no hope then?
[10:32] <flaccid> ah
[10:32] <flaccid> you should be able to add
[10:32] <flaccid> i'm just reading
[10:32] <marcelloDoItBeTt> no im not
[10:33] <marcelloDoItBeTt> ...
[10:33] <jan_> anyway, can i just download the xgl-thing from the reps?
[10:34] <marcelloDoItBeTt> whats the command
[10:34] <rambo3> jan visit copmiz.org
[10:35] <flaccid> marcelloDoItBeTt: its pretty unstable
[10:35] <proog> flaccid: do you have an idea of what to use for MODE?
[10:35] <flaccid> proog: can you pastebin me /usr/share/doc/855resolution/README.Debian
[10:35] <proog> ok
[10:36] <Gean> rambo3: that site is gone ..
[10:36] <rambo3> http://forum.beryl-project.org/forum-5-howto
[10:36] <rambo3> yeah they are moving , i dont know there was something about that on ubuntuforums
[10:36] <proog> flaccid: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24801
[10:38] <flaccid> proog: there must be a list of these reses
[10:38] <proog> 855resolution -l ?
[10:39] <flaccid> proog: try 855resolution -l
[10:39] <flaccid> yeah
[10:39] <proog> the most accurate it gives is 1280x801, 32 bits/pixel
[10:39] <proog> mode 7e
[10:39] <flaccid> use that
[10:39] <proog> ok
[10:39] <flaccid> that is correct
[10:40] <flaccid> hopefully 32bit on lcd is ok
[10:40] <flaccid> if not after you do the 855 stuff, manually edit the xorg.conf again
[10:40] <proog> isn't 32 bit like 24 bit?
[10:40] <flaccid> no its 8 more bits
[10:40] <proog> ok
[10:40] <rambo3> more depth
[10:40] <flaccid> but the lcd is the restriction
[10:41] <flaccid> not the video card
[10:41] <proog> i just think i read something about the last 8 bits were alpha something
[10:41] <flaccid> possible
[10:41] <flaccid> but yeah
[10:41] <flaccid> if it works, the lcd will prolly just do 24
[10:41] <flaccid> didn't know lcd can do 32, but i could be wrong
[10:41] <proog> doesn't matter to me, really
[10:42] <flaccid> i'm on a 15.4" lcd on a notebook
[10:42] <flaccid> but i'm running 1680x1050 :)
[10:42] <proog> wow!
[10:43] <proog> ok, the driver is already set to i810
[10:44] <flaccid> let me know how it goes after x restart
[10:44] <proog> ctrl+alt+backspace ok?
[10:44] <flaccid> nah
[10:44] <flaccid> log out to kdm then back in
[10:44] <proog> hold on
[10:44] <rambo3> yeah its ok
[10:44] <flaccid> the ctrl alt bkspc is a kill/force
[10:45] <ubuntu_> wow i'm the only user who  are using konversation at kubuntu live
[10:47] <flaccid> kubuntu live?
[10:47] <flaccid> cd?
[10:47] <ubuntu_> yes
[10:47] <ubuntu_> because my nick
[10:47] <proog> flaccid: didn't work
[10:48] <proog> still in 1024x768
[10:48] <flaccid> w0a its getting late for me
[10:48] <proog> :)
[10:48] <flaccid> pastebin your current xorg.conf again
[10:49] <proog> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24803
[10:51] <proog> any ideas?
[10:51] <flaccid> proog: it looks the same
[10:52] <proog> yes
[10:52] <proog> i know
[10:52] <flaccid> did you do - run 'sudo /etc/init.d/855resolution start' (should provide feedback that the patch is complete)
[10:52] <proog> ...
[10:53] <flaccid> ...?
[10:53] <proog> ** Patch mode 7e to resolution 1280x801 complete
[10:53] <proog> did it now :)
[10:53] <flaccid> you didn't do it before?
[10:54] <proog> ...no...
[10:54] <proog> sorry...
[10:54] <proog> logout to kdm and login again?
[10:54] <flaccid> yeah
[10:54] <flaccid> you might wanna verify that it changed xorg.conf first
[10:56] <proog> flaccid: didn't work
[10:56] <flaccid> wb
[10:56] <proog> still in 1024x768
[10:56] <proog> thanks
[10:56] <flaccid> far out
[10:56] <flaccid> you can check your xorg logs
[10:57] <proog> where?
[10:57] <flaccid> seee if /var/log/Xorg.0.log reveals anything
[10:57] <flaccid> but did it change your xorg.conf?
[10:57] <proog> hold on
[10:58] <proog> it sure doesn't look like it
[10:58] <proog> i don't think it did
[10:58] <flaccid> there is no 801 in it?
[10:59] <proog> no
[11:00] <flaccid> howabout  lsmod | grep drm
[11:00] <flaccid> the bad part about this is we don't know what the patch does
[11:01] <proog> drm                    73236  2 i915
[11:01] <proog> agpgart                34888  3 drm,intel_agp
[11:02] <proog> flaccid: would it help if i chose Intel 915 as the driver in system settings?
[11:02] <flaccid> its obvious that this driver has a lot of issues
[11:03] <flaccid> proog: i don't know
[11:03] <proog> ok
[11:03] <proog> flaccid: thank you for all your help
[11:03] <proog> i really should be going to bed now
[11:03] <flaccid> only quick thing i can think of is editing the default res in xorg.conf to match the spec of the 7e mode
[11:04] <proog> ok
[11:04] <proog> thank you very much
[11:04] <flaccid> 1 pixel difference only probably
[11:04] <flaccid> np
[11:04] <flaccid> sorry we couldn't get there
[11:04] <flaccid> lots of other people still not there too
[11:04] <proog> it's ok:)
[11:04] <ubuntu__> proog: there's an article about this on linuxmint.com
[11:06] <flaccid> dang too late
[11:08] <adrian> Just wanted to pos a quickie, I stared looking at linux 12 months ago, and found ubuntu and ubuntu and all its derivatives last month. Although I am a novice in computing, I will not look back to Windows now. Thank you all involved here and everywhere else :)
[11:09] <flaccid> adrian: coolio hope you have fun!
[11:09] <adrian> me too :D
[11:09] <Lexaeus> I am downloading Kubuntu now, all I hear is good things about it, and Gentoo is getting on my nerves...
[11:10] <m3xican> Lexaeus: gentoo is not linux, it's gentoo...
[11:10] <|lostbyte|> Gentoo is for developers..
[11:10] <clemyeats> well... I'm a developer, and I much prefer Kubuntu :)
[11:10] <Lexaeus> which may have been my problem :P
[11:11] <|lostbyte|> clemyeats, do you fix bugs ?
[11:11] <|lostbyte|> Never mind.
[11:11] <clemyeats> |lostbyte|: no. I create them :)
[11:12] <Sanne> hi
[11:12] <|lostbyte|> :P, nice one.
[11:12] <flaccid> ubuntu gives you time to do actual work...
[11:12] <clemyeats> |lostbyte|: I'm kidding. Well part of the job is to fix existing code yes.
[11:12] <|lostbyte|> flaccid, point.
[11:13] <Lexaeus> yeah, on Gentoo I spent 3 days trying to get X.org to work...uugh
[11:13] <|lostbyte|> Gentoo by any chance should'nt be installed on a laptop. unless you use it as a fryin pan.
[11:14] <Lexaeus> which I am planning to install Kubuntu on, should I just stop right now?
[11:16] <larson9999> linux rocks!
[11:16] <pseudosymbiotic> hey everyone, sorry but the help wouldnt answer this, how do you create a partition with fdisk in ubuntu?
[11:16] <pseudosymbiotic> my biggest partition is labeled /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-root when i use df
[11:17] <justas> hi guys
[11:17] <|lostbyte|> pseudosymbiotic, try doin it with cfdisk..
[11:18] <Lexaeus> what's cfdisk? a GUI of fdisk or something?
[11:19] <[GuS] > guys... anyone installed mpio/kmpio and that works?
[11:19] <Sanne> Lexaeus: another partitioner, with an ncurses gui
[11:19] <|lostbyte|> Lexaeus, Cursor based cli app.
[11:20] <flaccid> Lexaeus: you can use kcontrol too i think?
[11:20] <Lexaeus> ah
[11:21] <Lexaeus> my partitions are ready right now, I won't need to bother with re-partitioning once this download is done
[11:21] <flaccid> ok cool
[11:22] <Lexaeus> although I must ask, do I have ANY chance of getting my modem working?
[11:23] <SAngeli> Hi, is there an applet that I can include in my pannel that would display network activity like in "windows"?
[11:23] <flaccid> Lexaeus: that depends on the support for the modem
[11:23] <flaccid> SAngeli: knetstats
[11:23] <flaccid> is the closest to your description
[11:23] <SAngeli> Also, how to make grub boot logs fonts or screen resolution smaller? i have a 17" LCD Monitor
[11:23] <Lexaeus> well, maybe one of you can tell me, "Agere Systems HDA Modem"
[11:24] <SAngeli> flaccid, is it installed already by default?
[11:25] <flaccid> sounds good
[11:26] <Kr4t05> Hrm...
[11:26] <Kr4t05> What's the exact Edgy release date? Oct. 1?
[11:28] <visik7> does qmake is already executed in kde apps from debian/ubuntu ?
[11:28] <visik7> or the build process of a package include qmake ?
[11:34] <SAngeli> Also, how to make grub boot logs fonts or screen resolution smaller? i have a 17" LCD Monitor
[11:35] <flaccid> why do you want them smaller?
[11:37] <SAngeli> flaccid, when I first installed kubuntu, I set my monitor to 1280 x 1024. I want that again now after kubuntu is installed. It is not font but all. So far, I guess it is set to 640 x 480 or so
[11:38] <flaccid> but thats grub
[11:38] <flaccid> not xorg

[11:56] <AWOSDev> Where did they put the htdocs folder?
[11:56] <AWOSDev> I'm using Apache 2
[11:57] <AWOSDev> I did 'locate htdocs', 'find / | grep htdocs' and 'whereis htdocs' to no avail
[12:00] <Sanne> AWOSDev: in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default I find: DocumentRoot /var/www. Is this what you are looking for?
[12:00] <AWOSDev> Yes, thank you Sanne!
[12:01] <Sanne> AWOSDev: you're welcome :)
[12:01] <AWOSDev> That's were it was, I didn't check that directory :P
[12:01] <AWOSDev> Oh another thing, where do I get the userdir mod?
[12:01] <Sanne> AWOSDev: what is that?
[12:02] <AWOSDev> where it goes in the /home/*/public_html folder
[12:02] <AWOSDev> and lets all the users have their own website (e.g. myserver.wherever.com/~awosdev)
[12:03] <Sanne> AWOSDev: ah, I don't use that so I'm not sure, but I remember reading about it... maybe in the ubuntu wiki, sec, I'll check.
[12:05] <Sanne> AWOSDev: a hint: "Configuration options relating specifically to user websites (accessed through localhost/~username) are in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/userdir.conf." from the page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[12:06] <AWOSDev> ahh, a LAMP wiki!  Coolness!
[12:06] <Sanne> :)
[12:06] <AWOSDev> Thanks again Sanne, I couldn't find LAMP on the Wiki anywhere :)
[12:06] <Sanne> AWOSDev: heh, sometimes the wiki can be confusing
[12:06] <AWOSDev> Yeah
[12:07] <AWOSDev> Will I need to restart my computer if I sudo apt-get update?
[12:08] <AWOSDev> 166 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 10 not upgraded.
[12:08] <Sanne> AWOSDev: so I find in /etc/apache2/mods-available/userdir.conf the line "<Directory /home/*/public_html>", that should be the folder, yes?
[12:08] <AWOSDev> Yes, thank you!
[12:09] <Sanne> AWOSDev: hmmm, usually you don't need to reboot, except if you did a kernel upgrade. Restarting the xserver if it got updated may be also useful.
[12:09] <AWOSDev> Okay thank you
[12:10] <johey_> Can I turn double buffering on webcam view in Kopete? It's really flickering...
