| mirshafie | Hello. I have a huge problem with my file systems (ext3). After using the computer for a while, I'm suddenly unable to write to them, and I get a message which say the disk is full. But df or any other tool will claim that they still have plenty of space available. This happens on both my hard drives - I have two large ext3 partitions. What's wrong? | 04:09 |
| malik__ | since its a deamon n wont stop automatically | 04:09 |

| Dr_willis | if you use fdisk right, it normally dosent happen. if you tell the partitiosn to be a specific size it may end up not being on a cylinder end. | 04:21 |

| ernz | Does anyone know how I can retain bluetooth functionality if I were to switch back to Ubuntu? | 06:45 |
| ForgeAus | well theres more to wine than just running an executable | 06:45 |
| ForgeAus | are you familiar with GUI interfaces? | 06:46 |
| mrreview | hmm no | 06:46 |
| ForgeAus | if your using kubuntu theres an emulation addon package that combines this stuff | 06:46 |
| === xcoder [n=xcoder@p508AD307.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ForgeAus | otherwise your just going to have to read all the text that comes with wine and learn how to use it | 06:46 |
| ForgeAus | btw if you aren't using a gui how do you expect to use wine? lol | 06:47 |
| mrreview | well i think yes lol | 06:47 |
| mrreview | i0m using kubuntu,,. | 06:47 |
| ForgeAus | at the very least you'd need (I imagine) Xwindows... | 06:47 |
| mrreview | :P | 06:47 |
| ForgeAus | well from in kubuntu find the emulation addon package | 06:47 |
| ForgeAus | and it has wine tools in there | 06:48 |
| mrreview | wich name you know? | 06:48 |
| mrreview | libwine, libwine-deb, winefish | 06:49 |
| mrreview | only these 3 packages i can read | 06:49 |
| premier | hi. I cant seem to access super user mode konquerer no matter what I do | 06:51 |
| McGruff | ok this is a problem with Beryl, which was working just fine yesterday but with all the nvidia strangeness it could be broken now, but this is what happens when i start beryl-manager, the screen turns into a screwed up photo negative | 06:51 |
| premier | I type into the console kdesu konquerer, right? | 06:51 |
| mrreview | premier, try to write this 'sudo konqueror' | 06:52 |
| matthew_ | mrreview, it's better to use kdesu for graphical applications. | 06:53 |
| dwidmann | mcgruff, I've been here off and on, I hear it's a side effect of playing games and ircing at the same time :D I've no idea what the problem is with it mcgruff, what version of the nvidia driver do you have installed? | 06:54 |
| === morvok is now known as Morvok_zZz | ||
| ForgeAus | whats the difference between kde-core and kubuntu-desktop? | 06:57 |
| McGruff | dwidmann: it's particularly annoying when it was working just a few hours ago | 06:57 |
| dwidmann | kde-core only installs a select few packages | 06:57 |
| dwidmann | namely kde-base, kdelibs, you know, barebones | 06:57 |
| ForgeAus | basically all the apps here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde-core ? | 06:58 |
| ForgeAus | so does that mean ubuntu + kde-core would be an alternative to kubuntu? | 06:58 |
| dwidmann | It would be like having a vanilla kde with almost no apps installed, unless you're coming from gnome (ubuntu is such a vague word nowadays) | 07:00 |

| === mrtaran1984 [n=jordan@58.33.147.19] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] | ||

| ForgeAus | lol | 07:03 |
| ForgeAus | I have kubuntu but I was thinking of switching the KDE to core | 07:03 |
| ForgeAus | then adding the extra apps ontop of it | 07:03 |
| dwidmann | ForgeAus: it's faster due to the lack of extra things installed, like for example, if you don't need wireless support, or laptop support, you don't need to have daemons running for it, etc | 07:03 |
| dwidmann | The more things that have to r un the slower you go | 07:03 |
| === freet15_ [n=freet15@61.49.220.154] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| ForgeAus | ahh kewl laptop support... thats good to remove for me I don't need that | 07:04 |
| ForgeAus | wireless I'll probably keep tho... (I have a wireless multifunction/printer) | 07:04 |
| dwidmann | kubuntu installs a bunch of things per default, just because a lot of people need it (even though a lot of people don't) | 07:04 |
| ForgeAus | ie ark I'd like to remove | 07:05 |
| dwidmann | kde-core more or less needs to be done from a fresh text-only install to get much out of it. | 07:05 |
| ForgeAus | not that I'm against Konqueror but krusader + firefox seems a more likely solution to file manaagemnt browsing and archiving | 07:05 |

| ForgeAus | eclipse rox | 07:06 |
| ForgeAus | you need sun java tho | 07:06 |
| ForgeAus | lotsa plugins for it | 07:06 |
| ForgeAus | for various languages, uml, etc | 07:06 |
| dwidmann | ForgeAus: Konqueror is included in kde-core | 07:06 |
| ForgeAus | basically like an alternative Visual Studio-like environment | 07:07 |
| ForgeAus | yeah oh well Konqueror is kewl but theres a diff between having it and using it | 07:07 |
| dwidmann | I think you can change the default fm, I forget where to do that though, have to edit some config file, somewhere | 07:08 |
| max__ | how can i add a partition to my fstab? | 07:08 |
| McGruff | and it appears that changing ANY setting in beryl-manager trips this problem | 07:09 |
| === lnxkde [n=vlos@206.248.123.32] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| dwidmann | Pull up your fstab in <editor-of-choice> and add a line to the file ... the format would be like that of the other lines max__, but the details will differ | 07:09 |
| ForgeAus | McGruff sounds tuff I don't know how to help you | 07:09 |
| max__ | where is fstab? | 07:09 |
| dwidmann | max__ /etc/fstab | 07:09 |
| dwidmann | !fstab | max__ | 07:09 |
| ubotu | max__: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 07:09 |
| McGruff | hmmm the Beryl log did provide a possible clue | 07:09 |
| dwidmann | do tell | 07:10 |
| max__ | thanks | 07:10 |
| McGruff | "No GLXFBConfig for default depth" | 07:10 |

| MarkF | Its never that easy anyway... thought Id ask | 07:20 |
| MarkF | thanks | 07:21 |
| ForgeAus | well thats the easiest way fi you browse for repoistories | 07:21 |
| ForgeAus | and just add them using manage repositories in adept | 07:21 |
| ForgeAus | you'll come across one sooner or later that has MythTV | 07:21 |
| ForgeAus | or browse for the website and see if you can instal lit from there? | 07:22 |
| MarkF | OK THANKS | 07:22 |
| ForgeAus | in essence... I don't know the one simple answer but I do know a way :)... | 07:23 |
| McGruff | ok this is odd, starting in 24 bit mode is what trips the NVIDIA splash screen | 07:23 |
| ForgeAus | McGruff, well your one step closer to solving the problem... at least now you know what it is | 07:24 |
| McGruff | found it | 07:24 |
| McGruff | it wasn't specified in 24 bit mode | 07:24 |
| McGruff | it was reset to 16 by the new driver | 07:24 |
| ForgeAus | what mode is it in? | 07:24 |
| McGruff | the driver install had overwritten the xorg.conf file | 07:25 |

| LBB | dwidmann fell asleep for a bit there... testdisk finds a separate partition for my /home and / when the nr of heads is on its default 16, but tells me i should switch nrofheads to 8, when I do that and rescan it doesn't find my / and my /home, but it finds an lvm instead (wich is correct). I am no able to mount my / or /home though, i get the same "already mounted msg as before. Any ideas? | 08:57 |

When I tried it just now, however, audio is not being produced. Programs that play sound are not reporting any errors, but I get no sound. I've already tried checking the master software volume and swapping speakers to no avail, so it's not dumb user error (or at least not very-dumb user error <g>). | 09:22 |
| Crell | Any ideas what else to check? | 09:22 |

| computer | i had firefox working earlier before i reinstalled kubuntu | 10:36 |
| computer | but i forget how i got firefox last time | 10:36 |
| sonicGB | computer: what is 'edgy' in numbers? | 10:36 |
| computer | if it came with kubuntu could someone tell me where it is? | 10:36 |
| computer | 6.10 | 10:36 |
| computer | sonicGB i think edgy is 6.10 | 10:36 |
| sonicGB | ok, giz a minute, I'll check, I have kubuntu 6.10 on my other laptop | 10:36 |
| sebbar | :computer no it doesn't, just sudo apt-get install firefox or use adept | 10:37 |
| computer | cool thx sebbar | 10:37 |
| sebbar | or try konqueror as a browser option, works quite nicely as well | 10:37 |
| computer | i don't like konqueror that much for some reason =) i don't know why, lol | 10:38 |
| matthew_ | computer, try sudo apt-get install firefox-bin | 10:38 |
| matthew_ | or swiftfox-bin... | 10:38 |
| computer | can i do adept manager and then search and install firefox? | 10:39 |
| matthew_ | computer, yes, but synaptic might be safer (no chance of wiping your machine...) | 10:39 |
| computer | i'd like to get the latest version firefox tho, unless that's complicated then i'll pass and do the simplest way =) | 10:39 |
| sonicGB | thanks sebbar, my answer isn't all that good anyway. Mine does have Firefox on it, but it's in a non-standard place, so I can't be sure that I didn't install it after the event! | 10:39 |

| gnomefreak | matthew_: adept is safe | 10:43 |

| gnomefreak | its missing some nice features but its as safe as synaptic | 10:43 |
| matthew_ | !worksforme | gnomefreak | 10:43 |
| ubotu | gnomefreak: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. | 10:43 |

| matthew_ | gnomefreak, I'm not sure that you can w/ synaptic...unless you uninstall something essential... | 10:44 |
| gnomefreak | matthew_: do as you wish but both do essentially the same thing | 10:45 |
| gnomefreak | just as smartpm does | 10:45 |
| matthew_ | gnomefreak, very true. In my estimation (flawed as it may be), synaptic is better. | 10:46 |
| sonicGB | computer: in Kubuntu, clicking 'start' (the 'K' icon) and "Add/Remove Programs" gets you 'Adept' installer. Change the 'KDE' to 'Any Suite' and search for 'Firefox' (and 'synaptic' for that matter. Synaptic is more nicerer!!!) | 10:46 |
| computer | firefox is working! thx so much everyone for the input, hope i didn't start any bad karma lol, but it was great seeing the discussions, i could prolly learn something googling the stuff i saw earlier =) | 10:46 |
| gnomefreak | matthew_: i agree it is better (more features) but if you can mess up in one you can do same in the other | 10:46 |

| matthew_ | computer, yeah, me too...just remember to pay it forward! | 10:47 |

| sebbar | is smartpm going to make it into feisty? | 10:49 |
| computer | yeah i wanted to use synaptic at first cuz i saw it occur frequently in forums, but then the first time i used kubuntu i had no idea where to look up synaptic, and after awhile i just thought synatpic is only for ubuntu for some reason, anywayys =) | 10:49 |
| gnomefreak | adept is missing some very good features that synaptic has. and its not looking good that it will change since they are lacking devels on it. but give root to anyone you can screw anything up | 10:49 |
| gnomefreak | sebbar: its on edgy and dapper also | 10:49 |
| sebbar | :gnomefreak yeah but I'd like to see it installed by default | 10:50 |
| gnomefreak | sebbar: the .50 will be in feisty and it fixes alot of bugs that were found in other versions | 10:50 |
| fdoving | sebbar: it is in universe, and has been for some time. i doubt it will become the default anytime soon. | 10:50 |
| gnomefreak | sebbar: no it wont be | 10:50 |
| sebbar | ok tnx | 10:50 |
| sonicGB | computer: for future reference, a lot of the default stuff is different between ubuntu and kubuntu, but kubuntu includes all the gnomey-stuff that is required to install the ubuntu stuff, so if something you read about/want isn't there, just install it! :-) | 10:50 |
| computer | matthew_ will certainly try to pay it forward, although i'm still very much newbie, but i can sure say i can help with wireless setup now (had to do it again today lol), but i guess most people in here already have internet setup =) | 10:50 |
| sonicGB | computer: hang on here. Soon enough you'll find folks more n00b than you asking questions that you know the answer too, and you'll be able to help :-) | 10:51 |
| computer | sonicGB cool, it's good i get that cleared up cuz i was always a little fuzzy about what i thought i can/cannot use | 10:51 |

| Alzi2 | Hey. I don't know where to ask this, so i'll ask this in all channels: I don't like GNOME anymore, it's too slow and too "simple", and it feels too weird to control. I want to install KDE but i don't want to lose any data I have on my pc, but i want the menu's to be clean from GNOME entries. Maybe GNOME removed or something. So, my question is, how to install KDE while preserving data and keeping the menu tidy, and removing GNOME? | 12:07 |

| Alzi2 | just say yes? | 12:11 |
| RealisticDragon | Alzi2: you can add and remove (k)ubuntu-desktop but it's a meta package - installing it installs a whole bunch of things that wont go away by removing the meta package (a meta package is basically a big list of things that need to be installed, with no actual program of it's own) | 12:11 |

| adaptr | tony__: is it active ? run "glxinfo |grep direct" | 05:00 |
| tony__ | hold on | 05:00 |
| brandon_ | I have a 7600gs and am running nvidia-glx-legacy | 05:00 |
| adaptr | tony__: yes, there are a few repositories that have it, "beerorkid" is the one I use | 05:00 |
| adaptr | brandon_: that's.. funny, at least | 05:01 |
| tony__ | it says direct rendering : yes | 05:01 |
| brandon_ | adaptr: why the website said to use that driver | 05:01 |
| tony__ | so i guess ihave xgl installed and running ??? | 05:02 |
| adaptr | brandon_: okay.... which website ? | 05:02 |
| brandon_ | anyways I get confused how to switch drivers anyways, because I think regaurldess if they're installed or not they have to be set to that driver in the video card driver settings | 05:02 |
| brandon_ | !nvidia | 05:02 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:02 |
| adaptr | tony__: no, you have GLX running on nvidia :) the next step is to get xgl running | 05:02 |
| tony__ | can i install that from repo ??? | 05:02 |
| adaptr | tony__: you need to add a specific repo for it, as it's not in ubuntu's main repo's | 05:03 |
| tony__ | i see | 05:03 |
| adaptr | tony__: google for "ubuntu xgl repository" | 05:03 |
| brandon_ | okay yeah i read it wrong | 05:03 |
| tony__ | i think i will do that . :) | 05:03 |
| tony__ | thaks | 05:03 |
| brandon_ | if i have nvidia-glx installed, which driver do i want to be using? | 05:04 |
| tony__ | whats better, xgl or AIGLX ?? | 05:04 |
| adaptr | tony__: I have this one: "deb http://www.beerorkid.com/compiz dapper main", but re-google or adjust if you have Edgy | 05:04 |
| adaptr | tony__: up for grabs - XGL works with the standard Xorg 7.0 - which you have now, but AIGLX is built into 7.1 | 05:05 |
| tony__ | I got to beryl wikki.. with tutorials on how to install for new edgy . | 05:05 |
| lupine_85 | adaptr: that's pretty old. | 05:05 |
| lupine_85 | oh, wait. for dapper... | 05:05 |
| adaptr | so to get AIGLX workign you need to upgrade your X server | 05:05 |
| tony__ | ohhh no , i will temper with core of linux .. | 05:05 |
| adaptr | lupine_85: okay, give me a new one - I assumed they would upgrade the sources as new ones became available | 05:05 |
| tony__ | i will not | 05:05 |
