[00:00] kde4 will be released in december and hardy will be released in april 2008 [00:00] lee__: We don't know yet if it's the same kernal as the driver expects, since you still have not reported the result of the command: uname -m [00:00] ok how dow I check and verify that? [00:00] I just updated to gutsy and kopete sigterms [00:00] ok [00:00] oops, sorry [00:00] getting that line [00:01] how do i chown to make it so i can get into my windows partion [00:01] Um.

In bash doing && after a command, will execute whats after the && only if the previous command was successful [00:02] uikpouioy\]\ [00:02] intex: i'll get you a few links. the -f is to force it i think and && puts the firts command in the background. when a program runs it also create a lock file so more that one instance of the program can't get started and mess things up. when the program fails the lockfile is left there even tho the program is not running anymore. [00:02] * genii sips a coffee and waits for the aspirin to kick in [00:02] ok this is waht I got on the first line befor you said the rot [00:02] intex: let me grab those links for you. one sec...

I dident think you chould chown mountpoints.. or chmod them. [00:08] lee__: You may want to copy the driver install file to your home directory and then try running it from there. It might be trying to create files on the drive you have it on right now when it tries to run. [00:08] Dr_willis! :D [00:08] Dr_willis: eep your right [00:08] What's up? :3 [00:09] sub[t]rnl, :) [00:09] :P [00:09] Hay Minataku I keep meaning to head to the post office. but i get all tehse other Honeydooo jobs [00:09] Minataku, the box's are on the table and ready to take however.

[00:10] its eecuting [00:10] MoNsTeR: heh, use umask [00:11] I almost bought some "network cable" tools - but egads those things seem pricey === phen is now known as greenguy [00:11] Like crimpers and cutters and stuff? [00:11] lee__: Whew, finally. [00:11] Yeah, that telecom stuff is typically pretty expensive [00:11] update: (in case anyone cares) it's getting to 13% and then just stopping. Not frozen exactly, but it won't do anything more. [00:11] $50 for a Crimper/stripper/puncher/ and a bunch of ends.. :) whats a decent brand to look for? [00:11] I wonder if we got them at work. heh... [00:11] sub[t]rnl: what is that [00:11] Oh, what's that telecom catalog I used to get [00:11] I think it was Harris or something [00:12] This was at menards ;) proberly a rip off there. [00:12] They seem like a good place to get telecom kit from [00:12] erg not sure if its the move or the screwy way I updated the machine [00:13] i installed the restricted driver using Kubuntu 7.10 RC then when i restart Kubuntu login screen is not shown, totally black screen [00:13] how do i revert this back? [00:13] greetings. I just put in an ATI Radeon X300SE card. I ran Envy and it installed the drivers. However, I can't display at 1280x1024 and my fonts are all screwed up [00:13] anyone have an idea of what I can try?

[00:14] MoNsTeR: ok its a windows partition or drive? [00:14] sub[t]rnl: its a harddrive [00:15] Minataku : yeah...long story of the name. Any ideas? [00:15] well itstarted then it ceased [00:15] ok, you'll want to specifiy a mount point in your /etc/fstab [00:15] sub[t]rnl: i have 2 harddrives one for windows and one for linux [00:15] Yeah, read the !envy thing [00:15] the monet it figured out waht I ws doing it stopped dead [00:15] You might be screwed [00:15] sub[t]rnl: what is fstab [00:15] MoNsTeR: man fstab [00:16] Type it in a terminal, read up [00:16] !envy [00:16] envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!

[00:18] yeah and i know the drivers good too cause the chips locked [00:18] any idea how to disable restricted driver using recovery? [00:18] somebody HELP ME! [00:18] dsmith__: no. [00:19] MoNsTeR: FAT doesn't support ownership reall, and it just inherits the owner of the user who mounts it in fstab. I'm trying to help you bub... [00:19] you need to set a mount point in your /etc/fstab [00:19] FAT has fstab options to set who owns it [00:19] yup [00:19] If you'd read man fstab and perhaps man mount, you could see these [00:20] If you're not going to at least try to do part of this yourself, don't bother asking for help. [00:20] We're here to assist you, not to do it all for you [00:21] Correct. the Owner/Permissiona of vfat MUST be set when Mounting. [00:21] There are DOZENS of web sites that explain this. [00:21] hmm i have a verion up grade showing but.. [00:21] one would use the 'umask/uid/gid' options normally with vfat [00:21] Right [00:21] !vfat [00:22] its 0919 AM, Thursday Oct 18th, in Australia. I want Gutsy! lol.. [00:22] ntfs is To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For NTFS write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse [00:22] hmm yeah its stalling [00:22] These will usually be set to 1000 for both uid and gid, since this corresponds to the uid that you are and the gid that is "users" [00:22] At least that's how I did it [00:22] Detected configuration:Architecture: x86_64 (64-bit) === andre is now known as Hoondie [00:23] Albiet with uid 752 [00:23] For reasons known only to me [00:23] lol [00:23] which is a lot further then be for lo [00:23] hehe [00:23] mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -t vfat -o umask=0222 [00:23] or similer. :) [00:23] X Server: X.Org 7.1 and later releases 64-bit [00:24] Hm [00:24] Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.f18898 and it ends there [00:24] !fstab [00:24] 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 [00:24] http://electron.mit.edu/~gsteele/linuxfaq/ has a nice little explination of the vfat and its options. [00:24] Why this bot doesn't tell them about manual pages every time is beyond me [00:24] !manual [00:24] Sorry, I don't know anything about manual - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [00:24] !man [00:24] The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or type man:/ in Konqueror's location bar. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [00:25] hi [00:25] hi [00:25] i install the nvidia package [00:25] Ugh... How dare they suggest using Konq for reading manual pages [00:25] Though I like the link [00:25] ^^ [00:25] try apt:/ [00:25] :) [00:25] i install the nvidia package and when i try to "modprobe nvidia" it tells me something about "unable to runn install on nvidia module" something like that, any help? [00:25] i wonder if thers a xxx:/ for my err... never mind..

[00:26] These aren't your normal packages [00:26] Gutsy is available now in the servers!!!!!!!!!!!!! [00:26] Gutsy is available now in the servers!!!!!!!!!!!!! [00:27] There are more complicated things you have to follow for the restricted modules like nvidia [00:27] Minataku: apt-get install nvidia-glx ? :/ [00:27] sub[t]rnl: its a ntfs harddrive [00:27] >.> [00:27] * genii sips a coffee and awaits the first DDOS reports [00:28] well bbl.. time for more honeydo taaks [00:28] tasks. [00:28] Dr_willis: cyas [00:28] * Minataku replaces genii's coffee with... the exact same coffee [00:28] i need to disable the restricted driver that i've recently insalled to my kubuntu. I cant go to Kubuntu cos its all black. What should I do? [00:28] lol [00:28] sub[t]rnl: You do not have enough permissions to read file:///media/windows [00:28] Sorry, genii... I'm bored. X3 [00:28] MoNsTeR: I have plenty o9f permission! [00:28] Minataku: whats complicated with "apt-get install nvidia-glx" ? :O [00:28] I dunno, I don't use nvidia or even Kubuntu [00:29] lol [00:29] sub[t]rnl: teach me to fix it please [00:29] sub[t]rnl: i want to get music from it [00:29] O_O [00:29] MoNsTeR: sudo chown 1000:1000 -R /media/windows [00:29] MoNsTeR: We have explained permissions of mounts using the fstab file, Minataku and Dr_Willis have both offered information and relavent links.. [00:29] MoNsTeR: just read what we have told you my man [00:29] Greenery- you can boot to a console and change the driver in xorg.conf [00:29] I use Gentoo, I'm just here to help on platform-unspecific things [00:29] MoNsTeR: Read. The. Frickin'. Manual. [00:29] console = recovery? [00:30] We're NOT going to do things for you. [00:30] sub[t]rnl: i didnt see the links [00:30] You need an fstab entry to properly mount the drive every time [00:30] !shutup > Minataku [00:30] i just moved on from gentoo this week Minataku :p [00:30] ll [00:30] lol [00:30] MoNsTeR: Perhaps instead you should leave, then. [00:30] Minataku: you read my butt hole [00:30] Since you clearly only want things done for you and seem to have no willingness to learn anything. [00:31] And as I've heard from others, you have a history of such. [00:31] Minataku: yeah i wanna learn thats why i write down every command given to me gosh [00:31] Being uninformed is one thing. Being a baby is another entirely. [00:31] MoNsTeR: don't insult Minataku. I recommend you just keep shut broseph. [00:32] ScorpKing: thanks man your code worked great [00:32] mm [00:32] lets play nice [00:32] so how do i check xorg.conf in console? what part should i change? [00:33] Minataku and sub[t]rnl, i tried learning from those links ive did everything they said NONE OF THEM WORKED [00:33] MoNsTeR: you just said you didn't see the links [00:33] MoNsTeR: that changed all the files in /media/windows so they are owned by you which means you can read and write them. === Vorian_ is now known as Vorian [00:33] sub[t]rnl: omg ive got links before i needed it again because i just installed kubuntu again [00:34] !fstab [00:34] The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system.

For NTFS write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse [00:34] Minataku: i used the second link that didnt work [00:35] Minataku: im looking at the first one [00:35] MoNsTeR: i also gave you a link that i know is working. [00:36] ScorpKing: give me it again and ill tell you if it works [00:36] ok [00:36] MoNsTeR: Sorry to be harsh, BTW, but we're not here to do everything. Learning and understanding is part of using Linux. [00:37] MoNsTeR: http://www.linux-faqs.com/faq/misc/ntfs.php [00:37] Minataku: i come here for a quick answer and i write it down so chill if you dont like me IGNORE ME [00:37] anyone tried the kde 4 beta 3 packages yet? [00:38] It's not that I don't like you, it's just that there is no quick answer here [00:38] Or rather, you don't like the quick answer because you have to do work yourself [00:38] Minataku: yes there is, no i look before i come here if i dont find anything then i come here [00:38] We've given you very quick answers, but you seem completely averse to reading anything [00:39] Minataku: thats what the irc channels for i read documentations [00:39] Have you read the manual page for fstab? [00:39] Minataku: just dont talk to me [00:39] Have you read the manual page for mount? [00:39] Minataku: the "man fstab" command? [00:39] Yes [00:39] Minataku: yeah [00:40] You need to specify in the line in fstab to allow a user to mount the filesystem [00:41] You also need to set it up so that you own all the files [00:41] Type "id -a" and give me the first two pieces [00:41] MoNsTeR: look at that link i gave you for all you NTFS needs. [00:41] your* [00:41] Now how will things work for those of us who have been running the release candidate? Will we just wake up tomorrow and have much less to upgrade? [00:41] Minataku: uid=1000(jon) gid=1000(jon) [00:41] compilerwriter: yes [00:41] Okay [00:42] This drive is at /media/windows, no? [00:42] compilerwriter: there probably won't be any updates [00:42] Er, no, that's the mountpoint you want it at [00:42] What's the device name of the drive? [00:42] Minataku: the drive is at /dev/hdc1 [00:42] Okay [00:43] how do i edit xorg through console? [00:43] Greenery: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-sxorg [00:43] Greenery: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [00:43] Your fstab line should be: /dev/hdc1 /media/windows vfat user,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 [00:43] Greenery: sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf or even better kdesu kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf [00:44] Greenery: that will open it in a editor so you can edit it. [00:44] Unmount the device, drop that in, then type "sudo chown jon:jon /media/windows" then "mount /dev/hdc1" [00:44] Minataku: im noob sorr yi dont understand what that meant [00:44] Type "sudo umount /dev/hdc1" [00:44] Minataku: it wont let me unmount it [00:45] Do it with sudo. If it still fails, make sure nothing is accessing the drive [00:45] Minataku: it unmounted [00:45] Okay [00:45] Now type "sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.old" [00:45] I ended up doing a fresh install. I have backed up my kmail directory. Should I just overwrite the current one with it, or is there a procedure to import mail settings? [00:45] Just as a precaution and to keep the original one around [00:46] Minataku: done [00:46] After that, type "sudo echo "/dev/hdc1 /media/windows vfat user,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0" >> /etc/fstab" ( NOTE: Leave off the "s on the outside, but KEEP THE ONES INSIDE ) [00:47] Show me [00:47] Show me what you'll type [00:47] Minataku: ahh [00:47] I want to verify it [00:47] that won't work [00:47] compilerwriter: if you ovewrite it all your old mail will be there. i think you'll have to set the accounts again and i don't know of any backup/restore program for that. i think there is one in gusty, not sure tho. [00:47] you need to use tee [00:47] It will work [00:47] That's what the >> is for [00:47] no [00:47] no. [00:47] It appends instead of overwriting [00:47] You are echoing the command as root, and trying to append it as the user [00:47] true [00:47] I do it all the time, I set up my NetBSD systems that way [00:47] no. Look at the command sequence [00:48] you need to do something like: [00:48] ScorpKing But I can safely overwrite it without causing version issues. [00:48] Minataku: sudo echo /dev/hdc1 /media/windows vfat user,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0" >> /etc/fstab is this the command? [00:48] how do i reboot from console? the command [00:48] You need a " before /dev/hdc1 [00:48] echo "/dev/hdc1 /media/windows vfat user, uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0" | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab [00:48] or you will get permission denied [00:48] Type hydrogen's command [00:48] Just to be sure [00:49] Exactly as he put it [00:49] ok [00:49] compilerwriter: i think so. if it doesn't work remove the kmail dir and start kmail again. you'll have to import the messages then. [00:49] After that, type "mount /dev/hdc1" [00:49] No sudo [00:49] WAIT [00:49] you could also pass the users command instead of user [00:49] also.. I put a space in there [00:49] hydrogen you messed it up [00:49] and I shouldn't have [00:49] yes [00:49] I noticed [00:50] This is why we backed it up [00:50] there is 'user' in there, no need for sudo [00:50] so what do i do? [00:50] MoNsTeR, if you've already typed that command in, type "sudo cp /etc/fstab.old /etc/fstab" [00:50] Then: echo "/dev/hdc1 /media/windows vfat user,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0" | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab [00:50] Exactly as it's typed THAT time [00:50] lol [00:51] I knew I had you back it up for a reason [00:51] XD [00:51] jon@MoNsTeR-box:~$ cp /etc/fstab.old /etc/fstab [00:51] cp: cannot create regular file `/etc/fstab': Permission denied [00:51] lol [00:51] yea.. because using kate is so hard [00:51] @@ [00:51] You have to use sudo there [00:51] To copy the backup back to the original [00:51] jon@MoNsTeR-box:~$ sudo /etc/fstab.old /etc/fstab [00:51] sudo: /etc/fstab.old: command not found [00:51] hehe [00:52] heh [00:52] ... [00:52] sudo cp /etc/fstab.old /etc/fstab [00:52] you may want to sudo apt-get install brain at some point as well [00:52] Minataku: done [00:52] echo "/dev/hdc1 /media/windows vfat user, uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0" | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab [00:52] WAIT [00:52] FUCK [00:52] hydrogen: shut up [00:52] lol [00:52] Don't type that one [00:52] !ohmy | Minataku [00:52] Minataku: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.

[00:54] * ScorpKing pass Minataku a beer... [00:54] mount /dev/hdc1 [00:54] no [00:54] mount /media/windows [00:54] I don't think passing the device will work [00:54] Either works [00:54] with 'user' [00:54] It will [00:54] I do it all the time [00:54] it does work [00:54] I had my left mouse button set up to give me a kmenu when I hit the left mouse button on the desk top and I can't remember how I set that up. [00:54] as long as it's in fstab [00:54] My externals are set up like that, and I pass the device [00:54] * Minataku nods [00:54] ah, yea [00:54] Minataku: done [00:54] I thought I remembered it not working [00:55] Minataku: now what? [00:55] MoNsTeR: Now, try to access the files there. [00:55] If all went according to plan, you can. [00:55] Minataku: where in media? [00:55] You can also create and delete and whatever files there [00:55] Just open something [00:55] From your Windows drive [00:55] Minataku: i cant :[ [00:56] Then I give up [00:56] :P [00:56] MoNsTeR: did you try? [00:56] MoNsTeR: alt-f2: /media/windows [00:56] sometimes when mounting a NTFS or FAT drive the ownership gets a bit confused. running chmod usually works. :P [00:57] Yeah, you may have to "sudo chown jon:jon /media/windows" [00:57] chown* [00:57] heh [00:57] Though it shouldn't be necessary (I've done it on my system, however) [00:57] -R in there [00:57] Well, ed:users instead of jon:jon [00:57] But you get the point [00:57] lol [00:57] Minataku: i cant get into media folder [00:57] i do yes, but.... [00:58] my adept crash, wahts the command to fix it [00:58] need support for the k-menu... little question ;) [00:58] Go into /media/windows instead [00:58] !fixadept [00:58] If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [00:58] you may need rx priviledges for /media [00:58] Probably [00:58] no [00:58] to access subdirectories [00:58] just +r [00:58] Which you can do with a simple "chown ugo+rx /media" [00:59] You need +x to cd into directories [00:59] Er [00:59] chmod ugo+rx /media [00:59] Minataku: chown blabla -R for subdirs [00:59] Which, granted, it already should be [00:59] sc0tt___: Not here [00:59] shouldn't be -R though [00:59] Minataku: /media is locked and /media/windows is locked [00:59] Er [00:59] Scorp [00:59] as you don't want to change everything [00:59] Right [00:59] MoNsTeR: what do you mean by locked? [00:59] lol [00:59] MoNsTeR: Try "sudo chown jon:jon /media/windows" [00:59] owned by root :P [01:00] hydrogen: i cant get in it no permissions [01:00] Then "sudo chmod ugo+rx /media" [01:00] Then "sudo chmod ugo+rx /media/windows" [01:00] ScorpKing: yeah owned by root [01:00] MoNsTeR: give more info. [01:00] Or just type what I just told you to instead [01:00] :P [01:00] what if /media/windows/dir is owned by root? woun't -R help then? :P [01:00] won't* [01:00] Minataku: after doing the command i still get this Unable to enter file:///media. You do not have access rights to this location [01:01] It won't be [01:01] FAT doesn't support ownership [01:01] sudo chown 1000:1000 -R /media/windows [01:01] That's why we force ownership in the fstab line [01:01] Minataku: it isnt fat its ntfs [01:01] its not ntfs [01:01] you mounted it as fat [01:01] without trouble [01:01] then sudo chmod 755 -R /media/windows [01:01] thats just silly. [01:02] and unncessary [01:02] hehe [01:02] stop guessing. [01:02] hydrogen: its a NTFS i swear [01:02] Then how did it mount? [01:02] MoNsTeR: pastebin the output of `mount` [01:02] Or DID it mount? [01:02] Minataku: how do i check [01:02] I just told you. [01:02] Well, if it worked, mount said nothing [01:02] If it failed, it complained [01:02] anyone know where I can find ubuntu release graphics? showing hoary hedge hog to gutsy? [01:02] mount said nothing [01:03] Then it's FAT [01:03] lol. have fun guys! nite! [01:03] Is Compiz enabled by default in Gutsy? [01:03] if you use gnome, not kde [01:03] Minataku: it mounted as fat or the drive is a fat [01:03] the partition is vfat [01:03] It has to be FAT [01:03] For both [01:03] anyways [01:03] Otherwise it wouldn't have mounted at all [01:03] pastebin the output of `mount` [01:04] And mount would have spit a bunch of crap at you about "wrong fs type" and "could not find superblock" [01:04] http://pastebin.com/m3748ff76 [01:04] iss_student: you'll need to sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings* in kubuntu 7.10 then alt+f2 and run compiz to start it. [01:05] uhh [01:05] that makes no sense.. [01:05] I can't look. [01:05] but [01:05] What's it say? [01:05] its mounted as ntfs [01:05] mounted at /media [01:05] oh [01:05] there must be multiple entries in /etc/fstab [01:05] hydrogen: see whose dumb now [01:05] Well, you still are [01:05] hydrogen: well not dumb but i was right [01:05] lol [01:05] Minataku: shut up [01:05] But that doesn't mean we're not wrong sometimes [01:06] Sorry [01:06] I couldn't pass up that opening [01:06] lol [01:06] you need to edit the file. [01:06] Minataku: lol i wouldve too [01:06] you have two entries in there for /dev/hdc1 [01:06] Follow hydrogen's advice [01:06] I'll hand it off to him [01:06] o no [01:06] I was going to run away [01:06] and I do not want to teach someone how to use vim [01:06] sorry! [01:06] bwahaha, all yours hydro [01:06] kubuntu has a graphical disk manager dealy [01:06] whatever then dont help me [01:06] Use nano instead then :P [01:06] use joe! [01:06] sheesh [01:06] * kilrae hugs nano [01:07] I'm a University student, my brain is out of gas thanks to today's classes [01:07] lol [01:07] except i still call it pico [01:07] Heh, I had that problem at first [01:07] so nobody is gonig to help me? [01:07] edit /etc/fstab [01:07] On systems with pico I usually set an alias [01:07] and get rid of the first entry [01:08] and change the second one from vfat to ntfs [01:08] MoNsTeR: You need to delete the first line with /dev/hdc1 and change vfat to ntfs in the last line [01:08] Stupid school wireless [01:08] hydrogen: dude thats my linux harddrive [01:08] Open it up in nano [01:08] on kubuntu pico is linked to nano, so when i changed from slack which had real pico i never had to unlearn [01:08] MoNsTeR: You need to delete the first line with /dev/hdc1 and change vfat to ntfs in the last line [01:08] * sub[t]rnl sways [01:08] Then save the file [01:09] Type "sudo nano /etc/fstab" [01:09] MoNsTeR: "the first entry" being the first one for /dev/hdc1 [01:09] not your root partition [01:09] Then edit the file as if you were using Notepad back in Windows [01:09] as I said [01:09] brain not included [01:09] how can I get ubuntu to see all 4gb? [01:09] meeper: Open it's eyes [01:09] meeper: of ram? [01:09] or of what [01:09] hydrogen: yes ram hehe [01:10] meeper: what does free -m show? [01:10] 3.2gb [01:10] Sorry, long day, meeper, just playing around a bit [01:10] lol [01:10] hmm [01:11] dunno! [01:11] x86 should see all four gigs of it [01:11] do you have 4GB in there? :P i went 6 months thinking i had 1GB in a computer with only 512MB [01:11] and its not a HIGHMEM thing [01:11] hydrogen: i only see one line for hdc1 [01:11] because you see 3.2 [01:11] kilrae: yes, it's there, I see it in the bios [01:11] MoNsTeR: pastebin /etc/fstab [01:11] hydrogen: x86 should see all 4gb? [01:11] yes [01:12] I doubt that [01:12] I'm honestly surprised x86 still works [01:12] :P [01:12] well [01:12] considdering x86_64 (the apparent successor) is still x86 at its heart.. it will still be around for a long time [01:12] hydrogen: any ideas at all? [01:12] meeper: no :/ [01:13] http://pastebin.com/m1b56d524 [01:13] you sure its not a highmem deal with the kernel? [01:13] * sub[t]rnl sucks on his teeth [01:14] my teeth hurt [01:14] darn dentist [01:14] hydrogen: Can you please take MoNsTeR's issue? I'm completely out of steam here [01:14] hehe [01:14] Minataku: wow [01:14] MoNsTeR: line 12 needs to be deleted [01:14] ok [01:14] /dev/hdc1 /media auto users,atime,noauto,rw,nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0 [01:15] that one [01:15] Sorry, but I am human, after all [01:15] and then in the last line [01:15] change vfat to auto [01:16] hydrogen: i deleted line 12 [01:17] hydrogen: i still can't access media [01:17] MoNsTeR: sudo umount /media [01:18] MoNsTeR: then sudo mount /media/windows [01:18] err [01:18] no [01:18] hydrogen: done [01:18] then mount /media/windows [01:18] not sudo [01:18] hydrogen: it worked :] [01:18] MoNsTeR: yay :) [01:19] what is kubuntu es [01:19] hydrogen: how do i make it mount automatically so i dont have to do this everytime :] [01:19] It should already do it [01:19] That's why I never put "noauto" in there [01:19] * hydrogen isn't sure how well that works with user though [01:19] Oh, yeah [01:19] * sub[t]rnl gets out a gold star of persistence [01:20] Oops [01:20] lol [01:20] cmere hydrogen [01:20] You MAY have to put noauto in there and manually mount it [01:20] That's how I do it, actually [01:20] who is address kubuntu in spanish [01:20] its better to mount windows drives manually imo [01:20] I hardly ever shut my machine down or reboot it, so it's never been a hassle [01:21] !es | ubuntu [01:21] ubuntu: Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda. [01:23] hydrogen: so i cant have it mounted everytime i start up [01:23] hydrogen: so im going to have to do this every time!! [01:23] hi all [01:23] I found a way (using digikam) to retrieve my photos. [01:23] MoNsTeR: no [01:23] Unfortunately, as a side effect - whenever I open my home directory (with konq) digikam starts loading, then the loading icon in the bar disappears, and konq does not open the whichever folder was clicked. [01:23] MoNsTeR: every time you will just need to mount /media/windows [01:23] ok [01:23] MoNsTeR: perhaps.. it may work fine automatically === _czessi is now known as Czessi [01:25] ljl: well I am sorry about that :) [01:32] hm [01:32] So, whatever folder I select, digikam starts to open - though it never quite makes it. [01:34] SteamMachine, don't open with digicam...use storage media and open the camera-data folder there [01:36] BluesKaj: digikam is the only way I have found that will work. [01:37] humble hello [01:37] BluesKaj: ? [01:37] SteamMachine, isn't the memcard or USB device regognized in storage media? [01:38] is it worth the jump to 64-bit linux yet? [01:38] dga: Gutsy is pretty nice with 64 bit [01:38] no, just basic... [01:39] The USB device is recognized, but it seems konq isn't able to get past "13%" (in the loading progress bar) [01:39] I tried removing digikam and this message came up when I was using konqueror: [01:39] KDEInit could not launch 'digikam'.: [01:39] Could not find 'digikam' executable. [01:40] nosrednaekim: would my ATI driver still work? [01:40] SteamMachine, the files on the media card or usb device should be in a folder in : system menu/storage media [01:40] Which is located where? [01:41] how do i install limewire [01:41] MoNsTeR: you don't. [01:41] i downlaoded the deb file [01:41] Frostwire. But still, yucl. [01:41] but it doesnt install [01:41] SteamMachine, system menu/storage media [01:41] *yuck [01:42] do you know how to install it? [01:42] dpkg -i limewireislame.deb [01:42] lol [01:42] SteamMachine: thanks [01:43] no problem [01:43] BluesKaj: I can't actually see it in my menu (I'm running a kinda... Ubuntu with KDE hybrid) [01:43] SteamMachine, don't judge other ppl's preferences , just answer their questions if you can [01:43] Okay. Sorry. : ( [01:44] Is it okay to make suggestions? Such as "use bittorrent"? [01:44] what desktop are you on SteamMachine ? [01:44] KDE. [01:45] can somebody help me install limewir3e [01:46] or frostwire [01:46] home folder and remote places are there as well, SteamMachine [01:46] MoNsTeR: what did it say? [01:46] Did you use sudo? [01:47] Can anyone help with Dolphin? Every time I access my slave drive it crashes. My slave drive is FAT 32. [01:47] BluesKaj: Uh oh. I can't go near konq without it complaining about not knowing where digikam is. [01:47] It's trying to use digikam to open folders. I have no idea how on earth that would ever work. [01:48] Oh wait, you didn't actually type limewireislame.deb did you? [01:48] SteamMachine: it opens with archive manager [01:49] hello [01:50] why am I in the bantracker: http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:ZMHHLlLFtfoJ:https://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/bans.cgi%3Fpage%3D7+hexstar+banned&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=41&gl=us when I obviously am not banned in this channel? [01:51] just refresh your ip [01:51] Can anyone help with Dolphin? Every time I access my slave drive it crashes. My slave drive is FAT 32. [01:52] no SteamMachine [01:53] So can anyone answer? [01:53] where are the ops? [01:54] tony_: what error? [01:54] there don't appear to be any ops in here.... [01:54] -_- [01:54] hexstar, that's a *cached copy* of the bantracker as far as i can see. === n1lo is now known as even [01:54] We don't have ops here, so you can do whatever you want [01:55] LjL: yes it is because they've taken down public access to the tracker since that cache was made so it's hard to know if I'm still included or not... [01:55] I'm not even sure why I'm in there [01:55] * moony says hello [01:55] I guess this question is better suited for #ubuntu where there are actually ops.... [01:55] will i have to upgrade to gusty tomorrow if i am using rc1 [01:56] (there are actually ops in here) [01:56] nosrednaekim: Of course now it wont do it [01:56] but hexstar, yes, your ban is still set, and i believe you have been banned enough times for it to stay set. [01:56] thank you for warning about that. [01:56] heh [01:58] nosrednaekim: Dolphin has crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV) [01:59] sorry for the noob question. can some tell me how to change directorys in konsole? I'm trying to instll a bin file [02:01] sboyer- cd [02:01] can I install kubuntu on a windows system (I have plenty of unallocated space) without burning the DVD? [02:01] lol...little simpler then I thought...thanks [02:02] MoNsTeR: still here [02:02] ? [02:03] SteamMachine: yeah [02:03] Okay, how long have you been using Linux? (in any form) [02:04] 12 years! [02:04] LordBacon: I was asking MoNsTeR [02:04] nosrednaekim: Dolphin has crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV) [02:04] yeah, well, I'm bored :) [02:04] SteamMachine: 6 or 7 weeks only cause my ati card never worked or i was to stupid to get it to work [02:04] Ahh! [02:05] So I assume you've not used the terminal much? [02:05] i have [02:05] Um. === tb is now known as Chipper [02:05] so you realise the dpkg -i etc.deb was supposed to be written in Konsole then? [02:05] yeah [02:06] And then what happened? [02:06] ididnt use limewireislame.deb ok [02:06] it gave me a error [02:06] Hey, my adept manager keeps complaining about another processes using the database, even after restarting, can i see whats using it somehow? [02:06] Which is what? [02:06] The error, what did it say? === Klowner_ is now known as Klowner [02:07] tony_: run it from a terminal and see what error messages are left there [02:07] SteamMachine: ok ill get it for you [02:07] thanks [02:07] ok...sorry more noob questions. Whats the konsole command to install a bin file please? [02:07] sudo apt-get install filename? [02:08] nosrednaekim: I'm sorry. I'm brand new. I know what terminal is but thats about it. [02:08] tony_: is this gutsy? [02:08] sboyer: you mean a deb? [02:09] nosrednaekim: Yes [02:09] SteamMachine: i know the problem :[ [02:09] SteamMachine: i dont have java :[ [02:09] sboyer: sudo apt-get install is used to install thinks from the repos [02:09] steam I'm not sure....trying to install updated firefox [02:09] oh, that's pretty easy to fix. [02:09] sboyer: why on earth are you doing it manually? [02:09] It will update when it's ready to. [02:09] tony_: open a konsole and type in "d3lphin" and hit enter, do not close the terminal, even when it crashes [02:09] i installed through adept, but it isnt current firefox version [02:10] how can I get adept to get the current version of firefox then? [02:10] !java [02:10] 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. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) or earlier. [02:10] Most likely not, often ubuntu will have a version slightly behind the current. [02:11] ok...so can you walk me through the manual install? I installed a bin file once before but I dont remember the command [02:11] dpkg? [02:11] SteamMachine: im installing java :[[[[[ [02:11] :]]]]]]]] [02:11] cool, good luck. : ] [02:11] nosrednaekim: It opened and didnt crash. [02:11] sboyer: do you have the file you wish to install? [02:11] the last time i installed java it didnt work but this time its working [02:12] ah [02:12] yes I have it [02:12] nosrednaekim: I did it a few times just to be sure. [02:12] what is it called? [02:12] tony_: does it always crash on startup? [02:12] steam: firefox-bin [02:12] nosrednaekim: It happens when I access the slave drive 90% of the time [02:12] nosrednaekim: No [02:13] sboyer: you dont have to type everybodies name [02:13] That's it? [02:13] type there name half way then hit tab [02:13] does ubuntu get more attention then kubuntu [02:13] tony_: well then, access the slave drive 10 times using that method and it should crash once ;) [02:13] sboyer: just so you know, compiling and installing, rather than using debs is really messy. [02:13] hard to remove, sometimes causes compatibility issues. [02:13] by deb, you mean packages through adept? [02:14] uh... yeah. [02:14] well. [02:14] o fair enough...not for beginners then [02:14] I'll leave it be [02:14] actually from the repos. but that's what adept is. [02:14] Good idea. : ) [02:14] k thanks [02:14] nosrednaekim: Thats the mainDolphin screen that comes up with that command. When I select "Storage Media" and my slave is where it will crash [02:15] SteamMachine: i install java and it still didnt work [02:15] tony_: well, navigate there, the error should still be printed [02:16] is there a way to find programs that arent in the repositories? are there additional repositories available? [02:16] sboyer: most packages are in the universe repository.. if they are not there then check upstream to see if they provide a .deb for ubuntu [02:17] by upstream he means the original authors/source of the program [02:17] ok, what is "check upstream"? [02:17] ahh [02:17] ok thanks, that is generally listed on the website of the program then? [02:17] sometimes [02:17] in the download section [02:17] ok gotcha. great thanks a ton [02:17] ussually a google of "packagename .deb" turns up useful stuff [02:18] hydrogen: i got a deb for frostwire [02:18] or "program name .deb" [02:18] hydrogen: but it opens in ark manager === diogo is now known as aheiuhaiuheiuhef [02:19] aheiuhiuaheiuhfaiuehfiu [02:19] MoNsTeR: right-click -> Kubuntu Package Manger -> INstall package [02:19] nosrednaekim: I'm lost. I dont know how to navigate to it in terminal. [02:19] aheiuhaiuheiuhef: I don't think thats english [02:19] (/me praises tab-completion) [02:19] I don't even think that's human! :) [02:20] tony_: say what? I thought you navigated to storage media from within dolphin. [02:20] * MoNsTeR loves hydrogen [02:20] you wouldn't be alive without it! [02:20] !helpersnack | hydrogen [02:20] hydrogen: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [02:20] * hydrogen goes off for a while [02:20] hydrogen: hold on [02:20] ubotu: but uhh.. I don't like chocolate chip.. could I have an oreo? [02:20] hydrogen: it still isnt going [02:21] hydrogen: nvm its installed i love you man [02:21] sure! [02:21] * MoNsTeR gives hydrogen a oreo :] [02:21] nosrednaekim: Yes in Dolphin but not in terminal. [02:21] :O [02:21] * hydrogen doesn't mention that it was Jucato that gave the answer [02:21] my oreo! [02:21] okay [02:22] If I weren't reulsed by the idea of a dairy based snack, I'd be demanding an oreo. [02:22] now I'm gone [02:22] :) [02:22] Seriously, can anyone help me fix Konqueror? I can't even open any folders! *waaaaah* [02:22] why does ubuntu have more features than kubuntu [02:22] o_O [02:22] tony_: right.... run dolphin from the terminal, but don;t close the terminal. then use dolphin like you normall would. when dolphin crashes, and error message should be printed in the konsole [02:22] How do you figure that? [02:23] I bet someone said it in a blog, so it MUST be TRUE! [02:23] * MoNsTeR gives SteamMachine whatever delicious treat he wants :] [02:24] atlfalcons866: kubuntu has a killer feature... its called KDE [02:25] i know but it doesent have stuff like automatic printer setup [02:25] Howzabout... muesliii! [02:25] SteamMachine: whats that [02:25] nosrednaekim: I have it but it wont let me paste it in here. [02:26] What's Muesli? [02:26] !paste | tony_ [02:26] tony_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [02:26] will kubuntu run on a 433Mhz celeron [02:26] atlfalcons866: duh [02:26] How on earth... wh... I don't understand how you can not know what muesli is. [02:26] atlfalcons866: not very well [02:26] would it run good on xubuntu [02:26] SteamMachine: im not at wherever you live [02:26] SteamMachine: has raisins in it correct? [02:26] Yeah. [02:27] SteamMachine: oh that sounds good! [02:27] Raisins, bran, dried fruit, etc, [02:27] we call that trail mix [02:27] I'd eat some now, but I'm outta soy milk. *RAAAAGE* [02:27] SteamMachine: ok [02:27] SteamMachine: soy milk EWEWEWE [02:27] nosrednaekim: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41012/ [02:28] can I install kubuntu on a windows system (I have plenty of unallocated space) without burning the DVD? [02:28] !wubi | LordBacon [02:28] LordBacon: wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html [02:29] nosrednaekim: will that let me do a proper install with dualboot? [02:30] LordBacon: of sorts yes... it uses the MS bootloader though. [02:30] I don't know what else to try. I simply can't use konq now. === robby is now known as soulwarp [02:31] nosrednaekim: well, I already have the space allocated to suse 10.3, I'd rather just kill it and try kubuntu gutsy [02:31] * LordBacon wonders if the laptop boots off USB Key [02:31] LordBacon: it should :) [02:32] IBM T60p [02:32] i'm trying to get a script made with synaptic that can let me download a list of packages on this computer with another computer with the same kubuntu system [02:32] anyone have any ideas? [02:32] It's almost as if it thinks it should be using digikam to open directories. [02:32] Is there a way to restore defaults? [02:32] does anybody have the tut for making kde look like mac osx [02:33] why would you want kde to look like mac os [02:33] :P [02:33] mac os has the looks of gnome [02:34] tony_: huh... IDK I don't really know C++ [02:34] i was going to suggest ubuntu [02:34] ubuntu has gnome and i hate gnome [02:35] i hate gnome too [02:35] i want a better loking desktop tho:[ [02:35] * nosrednaekim has his looking like Mac. but soley because it saves space on his tiny screen [02:35] I don't hate gnome, I just prefer KDE [02:35] somebody help me :] [02:35] I hate zealots [02:35] nosrednaekim: When Kubutu comes out tomorrow maybe its a bug they fixed. Can I just upgrade from the pre-release I'm on now? [02:35] LordBacon: dragoons are more versatile, particularly when massed. [02:36] MoNsTeR, what does "better looking" mean? My opinion of a better looking desktop is different than yours. Do you want more flash, more shine, more transparency? Specifically, what do you want? [02:36] tony_: yeah... you certainly can. in the meantime, try using konqueror. [02:36] because gnome is striving to be simple, it has long since reached the point where it simply doesn't do what I need it to do [02:36] hey lets make our desktop look like vista [02:36] ;p [02:36] I want a productive desktop, with enough bling so that people don't gasp and wonder wtf is that ugly thing [02:36] soulwarp: thats easy... [02:36] soulwarp: nooooo! [02:36] personaly i don't like vista [02:37] my wife has vista and she hates it too [02:37] next time i buy a new computer i am going to microwave the vista disc it comes with [02:37] lol [02:37] I like vista [02:37] NickPresta: more flash more shine more transparency exactly [02:37] i think the best windows version would probably be 200 for me [02:37] 2000* [02:38] if i had a choice [02:38] vista install in two minutes on youtube [02:38] but it's not aero that makes me like vista, there are a lot of little things [02:38] but that's for a different forum/channel/audience [02:38] Why are we talking about kde vs. Gnome again? [02:38] MoNsTeR, install something like Compiz-Fusion, go to kde-look.org and start your search. Flash and transparency is easy to find :) [02:38] It's not worth it, so just... chutup. [02:38] i hate vista cuz my dads 3 year old computer cant even run [02:38] it [02:39] and plus its microsoft too [02:39] atlfalcons866: I'll bet it'll run Linux, tho ;) [02:39] MoNsTeR try playing with the theme and window decor [02:39] yes it does and 3x faster [02:39] Thanks nosrednaekim. You were a big help and I learned something new from you. Have a good night! [02:39] he uses xubuntu [02:39] tony_: No problem. [02:39] NickPresta: its hard to install compiz with my gaphics card i need a little help if im gonig to do that [02:40] ive install beryl on gnome before [02:40] installed* [02:40] compiz is under gnome [02:40] My friends give me computers that no longer run Windows. I install Linux on it and when they see me watching a DVD movie, they want it back. [02:40] MoNsTeR, we're here to help. You start and we're here to get you out of any trouble. The documentation is a good place to start [02:40] it's a layer between the Xserver and Xclients (but an xclient at the same time) [02:40] what gives KDE desktop effects [02:40] atlfalcons866: Xrender [02:41] ardchoille i know some friends like that too [02:41] MoNsTeR: If you just want transparency, shadows and some effects, kde can do that on its own.. no need for beryl/compiz. [02:41] NickPresta: only one thing before i start do i need xgl cfause i needed it for beryl [02:41] MoNsTeR: do you have an ATI graphics card? [02:42] ardchoille: i was talking to you yesterday my name was jon__ [02:42] nosrednaekim: yes [02:42] MoNsTeR: Ah, yeah [02:42] will i have to upgrade tomorrow when gutsys released if i am using gutsy rc1 [02:42] MoNsTeR: yup XGL for you... but its a whole lot easier in gutsy... [02:42] ardchoille: can you help me again like make a channel like you did yesterday so we i dont have to fuss [02:42] atlfalcons866: no... just normal updates [02:43] MoNsTeR: You can join #ardchoille, that's my channel. [02:43] i have one update i cant remove [02:43] or update [02:45] anyone know how to get a list of programs i have installed so i can have the package manager on my other computer to download them? [02:45] i would like the same packages on both [02:45] (i mean hard drives) [02:46] synaptic has an option to make a download script but i click it and save my file and it generates a bogus file [02:46] soulwarp: humm, there is a command for it [02:47] soulwarp: ill look for you on google [02:47] nosrednaekim i'll try the forums [02:47] soulwarp: nah... jst sec [02:47] k [02:48] "dpkg -l" [02:48] might want to pipe it to a file since it went past my scrollback [02:49] that does show the packages i installed [02:49] hm === lee_ is now known as lee986321 [02:50] i figured there was some sort of backup method [02:51] hey ya guys, I need that comand for running that linu restricted module thingy [02:51] lee986321: the restricted manager?

I have all that extra text which makes the menu hard to use? thanks :) === [esFeinsGuets]X- is now known as X-DeluXe [04:00] MoNsTeR: Gutsy will be released tomorrow [04:00] yeay [04:00] is in the process of updating [04:00] 0 minutes befor reboot [04:01] MoNsTeR I cheated..I used a comand update-manager adn when tht faile I did the apt get. [04:01] i like to do wierd things like that [04:01] wow [04:01] Evening. [04:01] <[Tyro]> Hey, does anyone have a link to a tutorial of how to install Kubuntu onto a Win XP without clearing any data? [04:02] <[Tyro]> for dual booting [04:02] eh ithink its aobut to reconfig my net work here in a sec [04:02] [Tyro]: you mean, resizing the winblows partition to allow space for Linux and then dual boot? [04:02] sex [04:02] <[Tyro]> i dunno [04:03] update-manager always fails, for me , anyways [04:03] hello [04:03] waht the heck is hiplip? [04:03] Tyro: its not so hard, just make some partition-free space on your harddisc === melody is now known as BlueDrew [04:03] <[Tyro]> i just wanna know how to install Kubuntu onto a winxp system for dual booting without clearing data melody [04:03] Tyro, you could install it using qemu if you just wanted to try it out [04:03] got to howtoforg [04:03] [Tyro]: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot [04:03] got to howtoforg.com [04:04] well, you could just resize your winblows partition to make more room. or put another HD in there. [04:04] <[Tyro]> right === Parlotti is now known as shaka === shaka is now known as Parlotti [04:06] <[Tyro]> ok, well i got NTSF [04:06] <[Tyro]> so there is trouble [04:07] <[Tyro]> NTFS* [04:07] shouldn't be trouble. you should be able to resize ntfs partitions [04:08] <[Tyro]> it sais that it doesn't allow for read and write [04:08] <[Tyro]> only read [04:09] but the partition resizing app shouldn't care for a resize. read/write (which you can do on linux, btw) is more for everyday usage [04:09] ntfs3g allows for read and write but you can't have ntfs as the filesystem of your / [04:09] [Tyro] the kubuntu install cd can resize the windows partition for you [04:09] <[Tyro]> yeah [04:09] <[Tyro]> i was just reading this thing here [04:09] [Tyro]: do a google search on the resizing issue. [04:09] [Tyro]: The new Ubuntu/Kubuntu 7.10 supports NTFS read/write [04:09] <[Tyro]> "Issues with Windows XP and NTFS" [04:09] I personally have never resized.. I either install a new HD or nuke windows. [04:09] <[Tyro]> haha [04:09] <[Tyro]> sounds like a good idea [04:10] <[Tyro]> but not on a dell system [04:10] but if you just want to try before you commit, you can just as well run it in a virtual box like qemu or vmware and if you don't like it (which is impossible if you're a person of good taste :p) then you can just delete the one image file and be done with it [04:10] [Tyro] i've resised my windows partition with the kubuntu install cd with out any issues [04:10] I install vmware to run windows under linux if i absolutely need to, but I rarely do that. so.... not really an issue. [04:10] can parted resize ntfs owadays? [04:10] wish me luck as I restart [04:11] <[Tyro]> soulwarp do you have to backup stuff? [04:11] [Tyro] i didn't [04:11] Edenbeast: gparted can, but I don't recommend using it [04:11] it is always a good idea to have a backup of your important personal data [04:11] it has a habit of re-ordering partitions, trashing windows' ability to boot [04:11] <[Tyro]> yeah, i don't think i've ever backed anything [04:11] [Tyro] you get a slider bar to help you resize the amount you want [04:12] <[Tyro]> cool [04:12] [Tyro]: that's brave or... foolish.. especially on a windows machine [04:12] <[Tyro]> it is [04:12] <[Tyro]> i just don't see why any data would be lost, so i just never back stuff up i trust technology [04:13] <[Tyro]> But i'm pissed with winxp becasue it's not letting me disable Pagefile [04:13] take a look at the release channel... everyone got mad there ^^ [04:14] anybody here using anything other than xfs or ext3? I usually take ext3 but I must say I had some problems with it with the last kernels I got. :-/ anybody use zfs maybe? [04:14] Tyro just set it to 2MB [04:14] Real Men don't make backups. They upload it via ftp and let the world mirror it. -- Linus Torvalds [04:14] i use ext3, but i hate this checkup every 20th startup [04:14] <[Tyro]> Edenbeast it resizes it self saying it's too small [04:14] heh my computer is pretty much 24/7 :-s [04:15] <[Tyro]> that's what pisses me [04:15] hardrives can fail, regardless. Plus I'd never trust windows for my important data anyway.... too many issues. I made the switch to linux a few years back after my daughter was born and i had a lot of digital pics on my windows partition... only to have windows come back with an error of "unable to find magic cookie" on my HD... and I lost all that data. Since then I've been running pclinuxos (or kubuntu, or several other [04:15] distros) with ext3-journalised to keep my data more secure [04:15] Tyro: install more RAM [04:15] seems the obvious solution [04:15] woa taht is one bright screen lol [04:15] ati is intact [04:15] you better not be talking about me :p [04:15] what is VM dirty writeback time? [04:15] <[Tyro]> Edenbeast i have 2.5 Gig [04:16] <[Tyro]> and it only uses like 512meg [04:16] <[Tyro]> ands starts using the pagefile [04:16] hmm that sucks :-/ [04:16] <[Tyro]> Very much so [04:16] well [04:16] <[Tyro]> It's good to have the RAM for games though [04:16] it seems taht Iam on the gutsy version [04:17] and its not asking for updates [04:17] <[Tyro]> i need it for that, and it uses it, but all my other stuff pisses me off [04:17] what can I say, I'm happily usng linux since about '98 and windows free since 2002 :-| [04:17] gutzy comes out tomorrow? [04:17] which games do you play? some games can run on linux via wine/cedega [04:18] windows free here too... plus our work has switched to linux. We only have two machines there now with legacy operating systems on them (windows) [04:18] i like tremulous, very fun game [04:18] soulwarp: comes out in like, an hour [04:18] :o [04:18] * Edenbeast quickly hides the terminal services window remoting in the windows server *blush* [04:18] hope they fix the mencoder bug [04:18] which? [04:18] i solved game compatibility issues and the constant "hardware upgrade" spiral of pc gaming...... i got a Wii instead. problem solved. [04:18] in my defense it's not my server :P [04:19] <[Tyro]> what is windows Free? [04:19] mencoder is pffth. use ffmpeg anyway [04:19] Now i just use my computer for computing stuff. [04:19] I'm very compelled by that new game that will come out hellgate London [04:19] windows free means you don't have windows in your domain... home..work..etc [04:19] sub[t]rnl i like both [04:19] and I'd love to play TF2 as well :-/ [04:19] eh my ps2 surfices me for gaming until Isave up for games [04:19] sub[t]rnl but it would be nice [04:19] soulwarp: agreed [04:19] <[Tyro]> ohh, so you're free of windows like chains [04:19] no windows issues. [04:20] then mencoder wouldn't be so, as I so sophisticatedly put it.. "pffth" [04:20] but my computer has socket 939 so I'd need to buy yet another mobo + processor and probably new ram as well + a new videocard... it just nevevr stops :P [04:20] sub[t]rnl some issues when converting mp3s in video files [04:20] only reason I would get an upgraded gfx card is to get even smoother compiz-fusion performance. :) [04:21] sub[t]rnl only way to fix it was to downgrade mencoder :'( [04:21] no kidding? [04:21] does compiz-fusion have that beryl limitation where it'll run up to your vidcard's memory limit and will then display blacked-out windows? [04:21] I use ffmpeg/mencoder to encode my .avi files so I can burn them on dvd's [04:21] Edenbeast: that was an NVIDIA problem.... fixed in the newest drivers. [04:21] <[Tyro]> when was the latest Kubuntu released [04:21] usually use the tovid script header to do the dirty work though [04:21] <[Tyro]> or will be [04:21] ah ok, great :-) [04:22] I've produced some really nice looking dvd's in linux, thats for sure [04:22] using ffmpeg/mpeg2enc [04:22] kde 4 in december i think [04:22] sub[t]rnl personally i like ffmpeg for the speed [04:22] agreed [04:22] man... getting a tonsillectomy at 35 really sucks. [04:22] taht reminds me, Ineed a dvd authorign system [04:23] <[Tyro]> what version of Kubuntu do you guys use? [04:23] ok so how do I check if this is a beta that i reiceived or the real macoy? [04:23] [Tyro]: 2 times a year, they update the whole (k)ubuntu... today should be one update [04:24] I use a mutated version of ubuntu -> kubuntu [04:24] lol [04:24] currently at 7.04 [04:24] <[Tyro]> do you guys use both Kubuntu and Ubuntu? [04:24] 7.10 here [04:24] 7.10 here [04:24] lee986321: what version are you checking? [04:24] <[Tyro]> where do you get 7.10 from? [04:24] [Tyro]: just Kubuntu here [04:24] the one that I just upgraded [04:24] its possible to use kde or gnome [04:25] with kubuntu [04:25] Tyro: in a sense you can. You can install both Desktop environments and choose which one to use or have different DEs per user. [04:25] but kubuntu comes with kde [04:25] lee986321: oh, your wanting to check your ubuntu version? [04:25] <[Tyro]> you and Ubuntu is Gnome [04:25] the one thing I really miss from gnome is gnome-video-thumbnailer :-( [04:25] ubuntu -> gnome ; kubuntu -> kde [04:25] yes or in my case the kubuntu version [04:26] like ubuntu only comes with gnome but you can install kde or other windows managers [04:26] allain all yes [04:26] I don't like that the konqueror one doesn't pick somewhat random images, when looking at a series, they all display the same front image now. [04:26] <[Tyro]> So Kubuntu and Ubuntu, the only dif is KDE and GNome, but you can have Gnome on Kubuntu? [04:26] lsb_release -a [04:26] how do i know if i be beta or.. [04:26] and you can have kde on ubuntu, yes [04:26] <[Tyro]> so what's the difference between them then? [04:26] between what? [04:27] from what i hear ubunutu wil come with a new fall back windows manager that doesn't require x-windows in case it crashes [04:27] or fluxbox, openbox or any other DE or WM(window manager) [04:27] <[Tyro]> (K) $ Ubuntu [04:27] <[Tyro]> Kubuntu and Ubuntu [04:27] No LSB modules are available. [04:27] kubuntu IS ubuntu.. [04:27] one comes with kde one comes with gnome [04:27] but its running kde [04:27] <[Tyro]> so it's just what they come with [04:28] yeah, the core is the same thing [04:28] not every distro can fit on one CD [04:28] Description: Ubuntu 7.10 [04:28] fedora is like 4 or 5 CDs if i remember [04:28] <[Tyro]> so what are the main differences between KDE and Gnome? [04:28] the difference between Ubuntu and Kubuntu is one command: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [04:28] or whatever it is [04:28] [Tyro]: quite a few [04:29] Release: 7.10 [04:29] kde is more advanced and way cooler. :) [04:29] yes! [04:29] agreed [04:29] yes :) [04:29] well am i a beta or... [04:29] larger memory footprint though [04:29] Tyro: gnome tends to focus on ease of use through simplicity, to lesen the burden for new users (at least that's my impression of it) [04:29] with kde [04:29] tyro... you may wanna also try out the livecd for pclinuxos 2007. kde based system with very nice multimedia setup from the get-go... you can get it from pclinuxos.com [04:29] kde on the other hand tends to present you with lots and lots of options and has more of a windows look [04:29] i treid gentoo [04:30] holy mother Edenbeast [04:30] my kde looks nothing like windows [04:30] :P [04:30] slax was a cool live cd i once tryed [04:30] lee986321: gentoo is good [04:30] Edenbeast: my kde looks nothing like windows [04:30] failed hard core at setting it..made it to pw an no idea what happend [04:30] mine doesn't either now, but I do think a base install resembles it somewhat more than gnome :-/ [04:30] yeah [04:31] lee986321: portage is a damn good package manager too.. just compiling everything from source throws some people off [04:31] but meh [04:31] yeah, I wanna use it now.. not next week, lol [04:31] and it's not like it's necessarily a bad thing: familiarity tends to be a good thing for many people [04:31] i am not saying its not... i just don't know where i went erong at.. said pw fatal error then shut down [04:31] ardchoille lol [04:32] i went with the sugested hints lol [04:32] i just want to know i f i had done my pw would it shut it down? [04:32] in set up mode? [04:33] and gnome has way more and better themes :p [04:33] Edenbeast: lol [04:33] I really really want a 'milk' theme for my kde, that would rock [04:33] kde-look ftw? [04:33] do you recomend the dvd the instead of the cd? [04:37] wonder how many time's I've refreshed ffox looking for 7.10 live cd [04:37] :} [04:38] giev [04:38] hey, my kopete keeps crashing now? === gustavo is now known as GuHHH [04:38] er, it just randomly started [04:38] only thing I've done was update + install kde4 beta3, but running kde3's kopete [04:39] only thing eh? heh [04:39] oh fergetting i have got to havve my celtic back ground [04:39] sub[t]rnl: only thing that could have impacted it I mean [04:40] yeah, thats a pretty big step though [04:40] hi all, where can i find kde4 beta3 packages, aptitude still doesn't show them :( [04:40] is the gutsy available to some people now? [04:40] try killing all processes releated to Kopete [04:40] and opening it again [04:40] as it's oct 18 in most areas of the world? [04:40] ps aux |grep kopete [04:40] sub[t]rnl: kay, one sec [04:41] sub[t]rnl: no other kopete processes running [04:41] sub[t]rnl what thre me for a loop was...doing my pw...i couldnt see any thing not even astrix when i typed it in [04:41] lee986321: hehe [04:41] i be [04:41] Ch1ppy: fire it up in konsole to see the feedback [04:41] that way you can catch any gripes and debug it [04:41] so I no idea if I was typing in the box or not [04:41] bbiab [04:41] sub[t]rnl: I did, no others running [04:42] does it have an actual scren that comes up when finished? [04:42] Hey, with KDE 4 beta 3, did they fix the kicker replacement? [04:43] and wah is it meaning when there is an nrecoverable error? [04:43] it means you have an error you can't recover from =0) [04:43] so taht means..wrong pw..back to the drawing board then correct [04:44] or do i have a bad disk?

[04:45] Ch1ppy: what part doesn't start for you? [04:45] you also have to install kde4base-dev to get kde4 to start [04:45] Ch1ppy: try running it from a terminal === scott__ is now known as scott [04:45] Ch1ppy: open konsole, then run kopete [04:45] to see the output [04:45] sub[t]rnl: oh right, duh === scott is now known as go2dell [04:45] * sub[t]rnl nods [04:46] my company is have a 7.10 release party tomorrow and I'm wondering if they put some sort of menu bar (kicker) at the bottom of beta 3 for kde 4 [04:46] millerjd: maybe that's it ;) [04:46] if you get an error about a library missing, it's probably because the file you need is actually in kde4base-dev [04:46] millerjd: hold up, I'll try it in a sec [04:46] i ran into that [04:47] oh I neeok now to test a few things in my graphics..hmm it seems to be stuck in 32 mb rather then 256 [04:47] erg [04:47] I wish the kubuntu people had some sort of changlog for their kde4 beta updates [04:47] lee986321: your not seeing all your available memory?

[05:05] millerjd: fun fun [05:05] i can fake change the resolution [05:05] and have it come back after applying the same resolution that it was at [05:05] on my second screen [05:06] "monitor and display" commands [05:06] anyone is invited, cocktails will be served [05:06] where at!

I want Gutsy! lol.. [05:09] sub[t]rnl: Well, I'm awake a lot :) [05:09] :P [05:09] when are they officially letting it go? [05:10] Frankly, I hate kubuntu. I'm a hardcore gnome guy, but I really like kde4 [05:10] I wonder what today's dist-upgrade is gonna do for my KDE [05:11] marx2k: the update manager is pretty ironed out, it was seemless for me, for the rc1 [05:12] so I'm sure you'll breeze through it, no troubles for the stable [05:12] haha no I didnt mean what is it gonna do TO my KDE :) [05:12] For the LOVE OF PETE why did they not fix the kicker in Beta 3?!!!?!!!!! [05:12] I just finished installing kde4b3 and still no kicker [05:12] no nothung [05:12] nothing [05:13] ...um [05:13] 1. There is no kicker in KDE 4 [05:13] whatever the replacement is [05:13] how'd KDE4 in general? [05:13] raptor! [05:13] I can never remember the name [05:13] 2. The fixes for it came after the Beta 3 freeze [05:13] is there a way to get the fix? [05:13] 3. Even at Beta 3, Plasma is still under heavy development [05:14] calling it the third beta hardly means it is almost finished [05:14] I know that, but it seems rather trivial that kubuntu is far behind on the kde4 dev [05:14] ... [05:15] I've seen some nice kde4 setups [05:16] but kubuntu hasn't put it together yet [05:16] in order to make packages, one has to take a snapshot of the state of the software at a given date. You can't take a snapshot of software last week, package it, then expect it to have todays updates and fixes [05:16] so unless you compile it yourself, yes, it will be behind a bit [05:17] is there a way to run dos from kubuntu? [05:17] the only way for me to install my particular version of xp needs dos [05:17] wine? [05:17] what a pain in the butt [05:18] um... no... [05:18] wine emulates windows api, not dos [05:18] !info dosbox [05:18] anyone know the command to upgrade my kubuntu to 7.10? [05:18] dosbox: A x86 emulator with Tandy/Herc/CGA/EGA/VGA/SVGA graphics, sound and DOS. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.65-1 (feisty), package size 506 kB, installed size 1388 kB [05:18] when i runn the xp installer i get an error and it closes [05:18] tazgodx: there are instructions on kubuntu.org [05:18] and if you're trying to install Windows on your hard drive, you can't do it from w/in Linux, specially not through wine [05:19] ok, thanks WaltzingAlong [05:19] well my c drive is wiped so i'm having some issues [05:19] thanks WaltzingAlong, i'll try dosbox [05:19] I don't think I have the patience to compile kde4, I'm sure I'd bork something up this late at night [05:20] godfodder: if you want ms windows within gnu/linux then perhaps look at virtualization software [05:20] i'm very new to linux so i can use as much help as possible [05:20] lol [05:21] * Jucato doesn't think this is the right place to ask how to re-install Windows :) [05:21] heh [05:21] * sub[t]rnl cackles [05:21] lol [05:21] I get lost in front of a windows machine... [05:21] its sad [05:22] lol [05:22] my family thinks im a computer wiz so they ask me questions about windows... [05:22] although I must say I've never heard of a Windows installer that requires MS-DOS other than Windows 3.1... [05:22] i get asked why should we use free software when we can pay for software thats supported? [05:22] sub[t]rnl: The other day I caught myself on a windows machine i needed to examine, typing in: ifconfig a few times before I realised my error [05:22] lol [05:22] I have to run "cmd" every now and again just to see something somewhat familiar [05:22] genii: lol [05:22] I've done that [05:22] godfodder: btw there's a ##windows channel. you might be able to get help there [05:22] yeah it has a Uwin installer [05:23] dsmith__: Send them here: http://ardchoille42.googlepages.com/linux.html [05:23] its windows xp pro with sp2/sp3 [05:23] :P [05:23] brrrrr beta service packs [05:23] * Jucato is guessing it's sort of pirated software.. [05:24] Jucato: I have a "don't ask don't tell" policy [05:24] it comes with all these extras too... like a vista interface option lol [05:24] in which case it's a double no-no [05:24] ardchoille: thx [05:24] bbl [05:24] genii: but you're not an op. I would have to ask and kick :) [05:24] at least I ask first :D [05:24] ppl just refuse to go away from windows [05:25] Ah, true [05:25] dsmith__: They are afraid of change. [05:25] that or refuse to change [05:26] to be fair, some of them really can't... [05:26] agreed Jucato [05:26] i support close to 50 users.. [05:26] there are quite a few people that I know that run linux.. and though its bad to say.. I really wish they wouldn't [05:26] work, needed/favorite software w/o Linux altertanives, games *cough* [05:26] save on my cellphone bill [05:26] heh :0 [05:26] :) [05:27] (then there are those who are probably better off *not* running Linux :P) [05:27] I caught on fella trying to install windows Nvidia drivers on his linux box [05:27] yeh [05:27] lol [05:27] lol [05:27] I went to my buddies house last night, I had installed kubuntu on a partition for him [05:27] oh man zines for amorachs been takes out...its dreyed out i cant listen to any stations that celtic [05:27] stick around longer here and you'll meet people asking how to install an exe installer for firefox :) [05:27] and I saw ./someapp.exe in his .bash_history [05:27] heh, busted [05:27] lol [05:28] lee986321: whatcha talking about? [05:28] are my eyes playing with me or is 7.10 out [05:28] where...where [05:28] probably the former :P [05:28] it should be out Oct. 18... question is what time and on whose timezone [05:28] a critical part for dtreamimg in amorochs no longer available [05:28] would i lose anything by forcing an upgrade to gutsy right now, or should i wait until it officially releases? [05:28] Heh. A computer lab I maintain..we have 2 *buntu boxes. Someone downloaded msn messenger install exe to the desktop about 20 times [05:28] 1st of all, it's Xine and Amarok. 2nd nothing has been taken out [05:28] sunilonln: make a backup first! [05:29] genii: lol [05:29] judt s sec ill get the name of that plug in [05:29] genlmao [05:29] i just told it to update and it told me that an upgrade to 7.20 is avail [05:29] genii: LMAO [05:29] dsmith__: obviously; i'm talking about functionality and/or code changes [05:29] dsmith__: Even more ironic, Pidgin was running the whole time [05:29] * Jucato wouldn't probably survive as a sysadmin... [05:30] HMMMM [05:30] sunilonln: nope. [05:30] i use kopete [05:30] Xine extraplug in...it has been greyed out [05:30] sub[t]rnl: nope meaning it's ok to upgrade now? [05:30] sunilonln: yup [05:30] jabber, yahoo, msn [05:30] cool [05:30] lee986321: libxine1-ffmpeg is what you need [05:30] its under multi media [05:30] for amrach? [05:30] update manager is pretty ironed out, should be smooth sailing [05:31] genii: checkout ncomputing [05:31] oh btw guys, just a bit of a heads up. starting today, when people ask about MP3 codecs, tell them libxine1-ffmpeg instead of libxine-extracodecs [05:31] just keep an eye on the packages it recommends removing in the upgrade [05:31] Jucato: 10-4 [05:31] or if they're using gutsy, just tell them to install kubuntu-restricted-extras for the whole bunch (except w32 and dvd) [05:31] NetersLandreau: aircard? [05:31] Jucato: Has that been updated in ubotu's blurbs? [05:32] well it is upgrading so i guess ill just download an iso from the local mirror tomorrow [05:32] eh i am trying to listen to a pod cast [05:32] my amarok refuses to play mp3s anymore :-( [05:32] genii: ubotu doesn't give the package name actually [05:32] since the last upgrade [05:32] Edenbeast: try to check if libxine1-ffmpeg is installed [05:32] /msg ubotu hi [05:32] oops [05:32] * sub[t]rnl snaps [05:32] woops [05:32] I wanted to say it Jucato! [05:32] oh it has that and libmad and all the codecs you can imagine [05:32] sub[t]rnl: should i use 'sudo do-release-upgrade --devel-release'? [05:32] /msg genii hahaha! [05:33] sunilonln: I upgraded through adept manager [05:33] * Jucato wonders why use the gnome commands... [05:33] sunilonln: but its the same thing really [05:33] Jucato: I want to query him a bit about mp3s and so on [05:33] it still says no mp3 support from time to time and then it usuually freezes on that :-/ [05:33] for my pod casts? i need libxine1-ffmpeg [05:33] sunilonln: there's a step by step for Kubuntu using adept-manager [05:33] sorry for what may sound like a stupid ? but i'm pretty new to linux, is there anything special i need to do to update to 7.10 when it releases?(i tried the RC and for some reason it kept killing my ethernet connection as well as my winblows partition) [05:33] sub[t]rnl: might not be the same thing really. [05:33] what happened to amarok-gstreamer btw? [05:34] Crazypoultry: are you on 7.10 RC right now? [05:34] Jucato seems they use the same repos right? [05:34] no [05:34] they deleted the main codec [05:34] did all the downloads change to dvd because im not seeing any more cd downloads? [05:34] 7.04 as of now [05:34] nvm [05:34] /msg ubotu shh, we'll talk about that later [05:34] sub[t]rnl: yes. but afaik, adept_manager makes sure some kubuntu stuff is installed before proceding [05:34] now amarok just complains about not finding the correct demultiplexer so I figure it's not looking inthe corect place somehow [05:35] sunilonln: use adept_manager just to be safe [05:35] Crazypoultry: nothing special. just follow the steps when it comes out [05:35] sunilonln: cause I know for a fact its ironed out [05:35] k, tyty [05:35] sub[t]rnl: already started it in the terminal; seems to be fine so far [05:35] uh oh? [05:35] * sub[t]rnl shuffles feet [05:35] you're using apt-get dist-upgrade? [05:35] yes [05:35] is that a problem? [05:36] now that's going to be more problematic [05:36] i can kill it; it's still downloading repo info [05:36] k, killed - i'll use adept [05:36] 1. make sure kubuntu-desktop is installed. 2. make sure 3rd-party unofficial repos are disabled. 3. use "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade --install-recommends" [05:36] * sub[t]rnl agrees [05:36] actually you can use apt if you really want to [05:37] they need to change the topic in here to support in #ubuntu since #ubuntu+1 is forwarding to it [05:38] hm... was that --install recommends or --with-recomends... hm... [05:38] hm.. [05:38] Jucato: i'll just use adept in that case [05:39] hrm [05:39] i thought you could just replace fiesty with gutsy, apt update, then upgrade === Ironman_ is now known as IronMan1 [05:39] badda boom badda bing [05:39] Jucato: searching in man apt-get for "recommends" returned "Pattern not found" [05:39] will compwiz run on kubutu? [05:39] ardchoille: yeah it's not in man, but it's an option [05:39] ah, ok [05:39] not that i need wobles as i have enough grahpics lol [05:40] Love those undocumented options, lol [05:40] sub[t]rnl: oh yeah forgot that step. step 0 [05:40] sub[t]rnl: not with gutsy.. there were some subtle changes [05:40] hehe === IronMan1 is now known as DropOut [05:41] so did we get the real version this time? [05:41] sudo sed -e 's/\sfeisty/ gutsy/g’ -i /etc/apt/sources.stli &sudo & apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [05:41] adept is doing its stuff; hopefully it will work correctly [05:41] tada === DropOut is now known as Fade2Blac [05:42] sub[t]rnl: that won't work actually [05:42] * sub[t]rnl sucks on teeth [05:42] sub[t]rnl: first of all it should be dist-upgrade [05:42] sub[t]rnl: if you have enabled proposed you have better chances with that (and dist-upgrade) === Jucato changed the topic of #kubuntu to: Official Kubuntu support channel | FAQ: http://wiki.kubuntu.org/CommonQuestions | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuFeistyKnownProblems | Free Kubuntu CDs! https://shipit.kubuntu.org | Large pastes: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org | Offtopic in #kubuntu-offtopic please | KDE 4.0 beta 2: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta2.php | Gutsy party and "when is it out?" questions in #ubuntu-release-party [05:43] oops i am running office org [05:43] sunilonln: just follow the step by step guide and you'll be fine [05:43] * sub[t]rnl nods [05:43] okay, thanks [05:44] never mind ol' sub, he just gets those wild hairs [05:44] * sub[t]rnl coughs [05:44] Jucato: for that matter kde4beta3 could find its way to the topic?

[05:46] * Jucato grumbles... slave drivers... mumbles... [05:47] When I install the kdebase-workspace do i get a kde4 session or just some apps [05:48] just some libs & apps, unless you follow the instructions on how to get a session [05:48] yeah, looks like dev and apps [05:49] !vista [05:49] vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org [05:49] pfhehe [05:58] Well, I installed kdebase-workspace and created a session, and it just crashes === KennethP_ is now known as KennethP [06:05] silly question, but if I download/install 7.10 RC, will there be a simple upgrade process to upgrade that to 7.10 Full Release? [06:05] jeezmos: yes [06:07] Jucato: thanks. does kubuntu usually release soon after Ubuntu (obviously thinking about hte 7.10 release today/tomorrow) [06:07] hi, there are final release? [06:07] jeezmos: same time [06:08] * Jucato points to the topic [06:09] or not yet? [06:10] HorD: not yet [06:10] sub[t]rnl tomorrow? [06:10] does kubuntu feature the power saving dynticks? or just ubuntu? [06:11] HorD: yes, very soon [06:11] HorD: Oct. 18. unknown time, unknown timezone [06:11] Dynamic screen configuration? thats listed in hte ubuntu release page but not kubuntu... [06:11] Shaezsche: if it's a kernel feature, then all *buntus have it [06:11] ok what about the new randr Dynamic screen configuration [06:12] BulletProof X unfortunately isn't [06:12] what? [06:12] are you talking to me? [06:12] ok... thanks you guys [06:12] Shaezsche: yes [06:12] what does bulletproof mean? [06:12] is it in ubnutu and NOT kubuntu? [06:13] dynamic screen recognition (I think) [06:13] I've always had trouble with debian-based systems when I use vi ... it seems like the keys are just oddly mapped. For example, I press the End key, and vi will capitalize the letter the cursor is under. Can you think of a reason this would happen? [06:13] Jucato can you answer my question [06:13] is it in kubuntu as well as buntu? [06:13] * sunilonln is 49% done downloading 1180 upgrades [06:13] Shaezsche: Dynamic screen resolution is already supported in the gutsy betas, it will be in kubuntu [06:13] thank you sub[t]rnl [06:13] Shaezsche: I already did. I said no, it isn't in Kubuntu [06:13] er.. wait [06:13] ok, u two disagree? [06:13] ... [06:13] i thought xrandr was supported in the final for kubuntu [06:13] Jucato your answer was not clear [06:14] sub[t]rnl: bullet proof X isn't the dynamic screen recognition thingy? [06:14] could be wrong [06:14] xrandr [06:14] what is bullet proof x? [06:14] ah if it's xrandr,I think it is in Kubuntu [06:14] * sub[t]rnl nods [06:14] bulletproof X looks nice [06:14] failsafe mode [06:14] http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3087492.0;topicseen [06:14] i was impressed [06:15] is compiz fusion in kubuntu too? [06:15] negative [06:15] woa!? seriouslY? thats lame [06:15] easily obtainable though [06:15] not installed by default [06:15] but its default in ubuntu [06:15] so lame of kubuntu [06:15] yeah blame it on kubuntu... [06:15] heh [06:16] well how do i get it? [06:16] kubuntu is waiting for kde4, I guess [06:16] yeah the compiz team has -nothing- to do with it [06:16] the fact that compiz fusion doesn't work seamlessly w/ KDE as it does with GNOME is definitely kubuntu's fault [06:16] :P [06:16] lol jucato [06:16] oh i didnt know that [06:16] compiz was written for gnome [06:16] but yeah, stil so lame of kubuntu [06:16] * sub[t]rnl nods [06:16] i want to use gnome, but it doesnt allow me to adjust power schemes [06:16] only thing keeping me on kubuntu [06:16] the powersave while on battery mode [06:16] ubuntu adjusts it automatically, feisty was always dymanic [06:17] Shaezsche: I hate to dissuade you from kde, but surely it can be managed in gnome - just install the kde program that is helping you [06:17] I use gftp in kde, without develping hives [06:17] * sub[t]rnl chuckles [06:17] its a startup prog [06:17] i dont want that [06:17] all kinds of possible conflicts with power management [06:17] dont want to deal with that [06:18] What power management trickery does kubuntu have that ubuntu doesn't? [06:18] you can set profiles [06:18] powersave/dynamic [06:18] last ubuntu didnt let u [06:18] or it was broken or something [06:18] plus you can't set default to conservative in either distro [06:19] whtas up with that lameness? [06:19] may as well use mandriva [06:19] Mandriva's free, too [06:19] I used to use it [06:19] kelsa|martalli: power management trickery: kde-guidance [06:20] Jucato: Thanks [06:20] although I'm not sure if ubuntu is getting the same features now too, since there's a guidance-backends now.. [06:21] geez, you't think someone was pulling his fingernails to make him use kubuntu [06:21] well [06:21] it doesnt matter [06:21] kde4 will have its own 3d window manager anyway [06:21] better integrated, too, it looks like [06:22] Can I turn the 3d down or turn it off for my weenie p-2 and p3 computers? [06:22] yeah, kwin compositing runs really well [06:22] Hi [06:23] yo [06:23] anyone using kde4-beta3? [06:25] CPrgmSwR2: no, but i'm going to try as soon as kubuntu finishes upgrading [06:25] Just wondered, because kde4addons won't install [06:25] hmm [06:26] kelsa|martalli: speaking of disuading people from kde, what exactly am i getting in kubuntu that i won't in gnome? (i switched from xubuntu primarily because it was unstable and i use amarok) [06:27] sunilonln: you will get amarok by default [06:27] The KDE groups of apps are more coherent and generally very good software [06:28] sunilonln: not to mention kde4 is comming out soon which IMHO is light years ahead of gnome [06:28] k3b [06:28] fair enough [06:28] I used thunderbird for quite a while but recently switched to kontact, and these days it is an excellent, full featured outlook-style program [06:28] hmm, haven't tried kontact [06:29] its amazing have fast you can install stuff on kubuntu [06:29] kontact better then tbird? [06:29] anyways, i was asking because fedora+gnome is installed on some lab machines i use, and it looks really nice [06:29] Back in my mandrake days (9.2), I shunned it for thunderbird. However, since I have been using it over the last 6 months, I think its the best such program in linux [06:29] but i haven't tried it in a non-IT-maintained desktop environment [06:29] CPrgmSwR2: I am always amazed at that fact [06:29] why are openoffice.org promoted over koffice in kubuntu, is the general consensus that it's plain better or for compatibility reasons? [06:30] Edenbeast: i was wondering that myself [06:30] openoffice.org has better support for the word document [06:30] I prefer ooo over koffice myself (at least writer over kwrite.). But krita is great [06:30] I keep both in stalled [06:30] not the correct answer though [06:30] kontact work with exchange? [06:30] because koffice is just terrible. [06:30] dsmith__: Don't know, I don't use exchange [06:30] Daisuke_Laptop: Except for krita [06:31] * dsmith__ thinks its doubtful [06:31] CPrgmSwR2: i'll give you that [06:31] At the time when OO.o was chosen, KOffice wasn't that good yet compared to OO.o, specially in the MS format departments [06:31] but Kubuntu is moving towards KOffice 2 [06:31] krita is the main app I love from koffice [06:31] (at least that's the plan) [06:31] Plus, honestly, OOo can be deployed in tons of environments (win/mac/other linux) [06:31] kelsa|martalli: KOffice 2 will be too [06:31] Jucato: It's still not (on format conversion). [06:32] You won't find koffice even in a lot of linux distros (by default, anyway =( [06:32] Kontact: Support for Exchange is partly implemented in KDE Kontact. If you use it, please bear in mind that it is not supported. [06:32] ScottK: yeah.. that... :( [06:32] package kde4addons is not able to be installed [06:32] Jucato: That's essential for me. [06:32] for exchange you'll probably have more luck with evolution [06:32] ScottK: ditto... although RTF is a compromise.. [06:32] With the GPL, anything OOo can do, eventually KOffice should be able to do (and vice versa) [06:32] well not really "essential"... [06:32] kelsa|martalli: not really [06:32] same. i have to have the word compatibility or my profs will have my head. [06:33] I had a devil of a time with evolution and multiple pop accounts [06:33] Jucato: Except my customers all use MS Office, so compromise isn't particularly in the cards. [06:33] could anyone help me... why are my cd's mounted depending on their names? how could i change that every disc in the cd/dvd reader is mounted in the same directory? === jean is now known as joz [06:33] Daisuke-Ido, you should have their heads, they sort of work for you & your community, not vice versa :P [06:33] no apparent way to specify one folder for each accounts. I had to create rules which didn't seem to catch quite a bit of email [06:33] thunderbird works with hotmail, gmail and pop3 [06:33] hi. i was wondering if anyone knows how to change the size of the hit zone for resizing windows in gnome/ubuntu [06:34] gnome/kde [06:34] thunderbird can handle multiple accounst [06:34] i never used evolution enough though [06:34] ubuntu: you can hold alt and right click near the corner of a window and drag [06:34] dsmith__: Yes it can, although it likes to create a separate sent, junk, trash, etc folder for each aacount [06:34] yea, i know [06:34] but thats godd and bad [06:35] *good [06:35] ubuntu: it depends on the borders, set in the kde design settings [06:35] kontact just has a separate folder for each inbox. I am not sure now if I could have set it like tbirds default [06:35] could anyone help me... why are my cd's mounted depending on their names? how could i change that every disc in the cd/dvd reader is mounted in the same directory? [06:35] ubuntu, if you chop the window into quadrants, as long as you're closer to the corner you want to drag it'll start resizing from there [06:36] ubuntu: actually. in the middle it does either horizontal or vertical resizing [06:36] kontact is more reminiscent of osx mail, but without multiple separate programs for calendar, addressbook, etc [06:36] thanks xevious. i was wondering if there was a more permanent solution, because i find this to be a usability issue [06:36] ubuntu: you could make the window borders bigger. lemme check on how that's done [06:37] ubuntu: it depends on the borders, set in the kde design settings [06:37] so there's no way to change the hitzone without modifying the border? [06:37] i dont think so [06:38] ubuntu: K Menu -> System Settings -> Appearance -> Window Decorations, Boder width: [06:38] yeah. [06:38] i found that one [06:38] but it looks very ugly [06:38] ubuntu: if you had the hit zone for resizing venture into the window, it could conflict with actually using that application [06:40] hmm true [06:40] anyways thanks for the help you guys [06:40] it's just been a pet peeve of mine for awhile [06:40] my cd's are mounted depending on their names (/media/name). how could i change that every disc in the cd/dvd reader is mounted in the same directory? [06:40] because it's very frustrating that my window lose focus to another window behind when im actually trying to resize the window [06:41] i have the same problem... maybe there is any trick [06:41] and what i've found with os x is that they have one fairly large resize corner on the bottom right, that's easy to pick up and resize [06:41] maybe there's a way we can make window resizing less traumatic than it currently is [06:41] :) [06:42] press alt + left mouse [06:42] oops right mouse [06:43] anywhere in the window [06:44] ubuntu: found it?

Internet access works. Then I downloaded and installed the Kpackage package handler. Then I [07:39] tried to install Subversion using Kpackage. At this point, it asked me to reinsert the Kubuntu CD and hit enter (looks like it needs some [07:39] support modules from the CD); when I do this it asks me again to insert the Kubuntu CD and hit enter , over and over in an endless circle. [07:39] What is the problem? and how do I overcome it? [07:39] i hope this doesnt ruin our friendship Jucato [07:39] jejeje xD [07:41] hrm, shouldn't sudo apt-get update fix boeroe's problems? [07:41] i would think [07:41] Pendeta: you downloaded a beta version, just wait for the official release [07:42] Jucato does the Kubuntu kernel use realtime data evocation as substandard data protocol?

[08:39] no non è [08:39] it's nothing fatal [08:39] both my machines are running kubuntu 7.10rc [08:39] wonder what's taking them so long. I guess I assumed they would just have those things finished by the day before, ready to go for today [08:40] and they take ages to shutdown... it appears that networkmanager hangs [08:40] fantastic [08:40] and i have a wierd problem with icons in openoffice [08:40] apart from that all is fine [08:40] you're breeding nothing but confidence [08:40] my eyecandy works a dream [08:41] well, as long as the pretty stuff works [08:41] yup === sbucatino is now known as Sbucat [08:48] I have a pretty big problem when trying to update.

[08:52] away [08:53] i think i have everything working now in gutsy [08:53] except something is causing windows to snap when i drag, and it's not compiz === DaRkSlidE is now known as l1z4rd [08:57] sunilonln: the window manager is responsible for that. [08:58] has gutsy been released yet? [08:58] @Vosper: I believe it has. [08:58] * Jucato points to the channel topic [08:59] It has not. [09:01] waylandbill: where can i change it? [09:04] was eased?

[09:04] no announcement yet [09:05] Hi I have been having an issue with gutsy, where when I restart the computer, there is no window manager running (no borders, titlebar etc.) and KDE itself is real slow... I have to manually restart the X-server(?) Ctrl+Alt+BkSpc multiple times to get it right again. Help? [09:05] Also, I cannot switch between windows, and can only interact with the topmost window. I am currently having this issue as I just restarted... [09:09] i heard somethign yesterday about needing to close all internet ports while using linux? is that true? === Brownout is now known as Brown [09:10] german, no but it helps if you make sure all your windows are closed [09:10] 'close all internet ports' [09:10] wtf [09:10] it gets chilly this time of year ;-) [09:12] Hello Im sorry ,no one news when will be uploaded Gutsy ? [09:12] I close my ports all the time. Don't want my computer leaking onto the internet.

I'd read of a couple people in the +1 channel doing that, so I just wanted to check.

[12:57] rewolf: page is probably being updated [12:57] WaltzingAlong: I mean, how does it make sense to make an upgrading-tutorial where you assume the user has install another program [12:57] ardchoille: kubuntu.org or ubuntu.com or releases.ubuntu.com [12:57] I have all updates for feisty installed, yet no version upgrade button appears [12:57] sqint: same here [12:57] sqint : did u run 'kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade"' ? [12:57] (quotes needed) [12:57] bottiger: then the guide should mention that [12:58] rewolf: No... the kubuntu upgrade guide says that adept manager should offer a version upgrade button [12:58] rewolf: it's supposed to automagically offer the upgrade [12:58] the one i read didnt [12:58] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades [12:58] WaltzingAlong: I'm just looking at the short official 4-step guide: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade [12:58] hey, does anyone know anything about l2tp? I don't know where to start. the docs I see are talking about pre-shared keys and certificates n'stuff, and all I have is a username and password. [12:58] it may take a while for adept to realise there is an update, the --version-upgrade option forces it [12:58] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades#head-03dfe71741407e245a9fcd75bded428572061f53 [12:58] thats kubuntu [12:58] What should i do upgrade from CD or fresh install (no net at home) [12:59] my adept says that new version is available, but when i click on it, it tells me i dont need any updates...im up to date.... [12:59] rewolf: That's for the RC [12:59] sqint: that'll work [12:59] sqint: it may take a while for adept to realise there is an update, the --version-upgrade option forces it [12:59] stdin: who runs the website? could we get that added (that software-properties-kde needs to be installed to see the screen described in the update instructions) [12:59] stdin: OK [13:00] i just wanted to point it out that it's not realizing it. and i didn't realize that adept could take a while to realize it. do you realize? [13:00] WaltzingAlong: umm, ask Riddell [13:00] WaltzingAlong: #kubuntu-devel [13:00] xevious lol [13:00] hey what is better upgrade from Cd or fresh install as i don't have net [13:00] wish me luck [13:00] xevious: it relies on finding a file in the archive, some may not have it yet [13:00] i have a small question. i have the binary ati driver installed. what will the update to gutsy do with it? [13:00] apparle: fresh install [13:00] Hello there [13:01] noam_: did you install it from the repositories? [13:01] Anyone with a torrent link to kubuntu 7.10? [13:01] noam_: how did you install the driver? [13:01] nope [13:01] mine has been downloading and verifying the upgrade tool for like 5 minutes [13:01] that's why i'm asking [13:01] !torrent [13:01] Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) - Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html [13:01] !torrents [13:01] Torrent downloads for the Ubuntu ISOs are available on all the download pages. For Gutsy: http://releases.ubuntu.com/gutsy/ (CDs) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.10/release/ (DVDs) [13:01] noam_: where did you install it from? [13:01] does medibuntu already have a gutsy repo? [13:01] and canonical? [13:02] Why does adept not honor held packages? [13:02] xevious: Yes, both. [13:02] i followed an official looking guide in the web which went through downloading a file from ati.amd.com, making deb packages out of it, installing them, and module-assistant things. i'll find a link [13:02] mschiff: because adept can't [13:02] asimon: thanks [13:02] modifying the software channels [13:02] stdin: you know why? [13:02] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI [13:02] noam_: ah ok,i'm familiar with that. uninstall the packages and you should be good. [13:02] noam_: the update should overwrite it with the new version I guess [13:03] mschiff: because it doesn't have that ability [13:03] stdin: will it? some of the package names are different [13:03] is there a utility to determine the fastest mirror automatically? [13:03] stdin: I dont want it to upgrade my hbci enabled gnucash [13:03] stdin: ok thanks [13:04] nosrednaekim: depends what it's called and the exact version it was given. if it's called something else then there's trouble ahead [13:04] !info netselect | xevious [13:04] xevious: netselect: Choose the fastest server automatically. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.ds1-9 (feisty), package size 18 kB, installed size 92 kB [13:04] WaltzingAlong: thanks [13:04] noam_: before uninstalling the packages, switch the driver to the fre ati. in the monitor and resolution app. [13:04] stdin: yeah, its named differently [13:04] nosrednaekim: why fresh install??????? [13:05] apparle: well, you have fiesty installed with various apps right? [13:05] does it usually take long for the "Downloading and verifying the upgrade tool ..." phase? [13:05] noaxess_kubuntu, you mean, uninstall the packages now, then make everything work (as it will undoubtedly break), then update to gutsy? [13:05] some like more work [13:05] woohoo! [13:05] noam_: yes, that is what I am saying. [13:05] i need to download a total of 984M [13:05] :D [13:05] rewolf: the mirrors are being hit hard, give it time [13:05] all right, will do [13:05] i cant update...i have gutsy RC version and when i click on version upgrade button, it says i have the latest version :( [13:06] oh ok cool. actually i suppose thats understandable. i mean, it just came out. so stoked .lol [13:06] Flegma: you have the lastest version [13:06] !final | Flegma [13:06] noam_: but before you remove them, make sure you change the Xorg driver to be "ati", from "fglrx" [13:06] Flegma: If you installed a Tribe/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Gutsy. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [13:06] yes, but why is the button active?? [13:06] doesn't gutsy support CUPS? kde4 apps appears to print using lpr ?! [13:07] or is it a problem in qt? [13:07] i have the opposite problem: the button is not active. trying a normal feisty -> gutsy upgrade with adept [13:07] sredna: kde4 is not complete, so expect bugs [13:07] oh no. 86k/s [13:07] rough. [13:07] i usually pull 750 or so [13:07] stdin: i kinda know :-) [13:07] nosrednaekim, alright [13:07] will my ATI Radeon 9550 work in gutsy gibbon? [13:07] well i'll catch you all later i guess [13:07] nosrednaekim: so what [13:07] stdin: i work on kate printing code, and i believe using lpr is not acceptable [13:08] nosrednaekim: will this create problems [13:08] apparle: well, if you hae any apps that don't come on the CD, then you can't upgrade [13:08] from the CD [13:08] oh. any .files in the home dir that i should replace with the gutsy versions when the upgrade is done? [13:08] why isn't qtconfig installed automatically?! [13:09] xevious: not neccesary [13:09] i have problem with hal......please look at this and help me....save me from fresh instalation... http://www.pastebin.cz/show/2148 [13:09] sredna: it could be the way one of the packages was built, talk to Riddell in #kubuntu-devel about it, he uploaded them [13:09] you install a HUGE, for many useless application like amarok, but not qtconfig?! [13:09] nosrednaekim: even with the switch to the new file manager? [13:09] how are these upgrades via adept going? i have a lot of "extra" packages and I would hate for it crash like it did when upgrading to Fiesty! [13:09] how come all the links t download the cd are for dapper? [13:09] xevious: yup... eveything should be handled automagically :) [13:09] peterbuldge: refresh the page [13:09] nosrednaekim: supersweetmegaradolicious! [13:10] hm, qtconfig doesn't allow to tell it to use CUPS :-( [13:10] hahaha i cant believe how hammered the mirrors are right now [13:10] nosrednaekim: Only the ati drivers and OSS drivers [13:10] ahhh.... had to shift +refresh [13:10] sredna: I guess more people use amarok then qtconfig. I doubt many people know about qtconfig at all. ;-) [13:10] noaxess_kubuntu, er, adept crashed during uninstallation. argh! [13:10] apparle: ah..ok, uninstall them, and then you can upgrade from the alternate CD [13:10] I have followed the guide on kubuntu.org and added "recommended updates". but adept does not give me any version upgrade button. I think I know about a --version-upgrade flag or something, but I'm really disappointed if people are actually expected to find out that by themselves [13:11] haraldhv: sudo aptitude install software-properties-kde [13:11] would adept do more than switch sources.list entries from feisty to gutsy and dist-upgrade? [13:11] will my ATI Radeon 9550 work in gutsy gibbon? [13:11] it all works [13:11] mschiff: yes, adept does much more than that [13:12] hello [13:12] byewindows: nice nick! [13:12] stdin: is there a list somewhere what it will do on the upgrade? I would like to see in detail what it really does or would do... [13:12] and hello! [13:12] I have an error with glxinfo http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41053/ [13:13] xevious: ;) [13:13] noam_: you talking to me? [13:13] LiL-JoN: should if it worked in fiesty [13:13] WaltzingAlong: yes, that's exactly the one I was using. could it be a problem because i am trying to use a japan mirror? [13:13] is a good download manager that will do segmented downloading like getright for kde? [13:13] I've wondered this for a while [13:13] kget maybe? [13:13] kget doesn't seem to do it [13:13] nosrednaekim, oh, never mind that. anyway, i'm reinstalling xorg-driver-fglrx from the repositories, that's the way to go, right? [13:14] mschiff: not that I know of [13:14] haraldhv: did you run kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [13:14] noam_: that might work, yes, but I think you have to get rid of the blacklisting of the fglrx driver in /etc/defaults/linux-restrcited-modules [13:14] nosrednaekim: yeah but i had to use restricted drivers [13:15] allrighty [13:15] LiL-JoN: well, gutsy shouldn't have any regressions, maybe the free ones will even work nor [13:15] my sympathies to the people with ati cards [13:15] (/etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common) [13:15] gonna let the computer do its thing [13:15] * xevious hopes that this speeds up. [13:15] WaltzingAlong: my point was that yes, I know about that solution, but I was going to use adept for once and try a userfriendly upgrade [13:16] the dialog could at least tel u if its downloading or queuing or wateva [13:16] noam_: yeah that thingy ;) [13:16] nosrednaekim: is there tuts for compiz fusion ? [13:16] haraldhv: adept will eventually notice the next release, the option forces it do look now [13:16] ah, the 8.40 drivers (those which come with gutsy) are actually nice. you *do* get a GUI for things you used to do in ati-initial --something -Xfoo -bar or in xorg.conf, directly in the gui [13:16] haraldhv: i was too. but since the upgrade notice hasn't propagated to all the mirrors, it's necessary to use --version-upgrade right now [13:17] LiL-JoN: I think so, if not its really just one command. :) [13:17] i have a AMD64 computer what iso should i download? [13:17] i believe that's essentially correct [13:17] LiL-JoN: amd64? [13:17] noam_: yeah :) [13:17] restarting X, brb [13:17] hopefully [13:17] how to run WINE on amd64 [13:17] xevious WaltzingAlong: oh, I see. so eventually normal users will get them too [13:17] haraldhv: correct [13:17] LiL-JoN: are you experienced with linux?

[13:18] xevious: #kubuntu-devel [13:18] thanks [13:18] LiL-JoN: 64 has some additional headaches, 32 bit is just easier, and there is not a whole lot of performace gain for normal desktop apps [13:19] is there a kubuntu DVD for gutsy yet? === sredna|konversat is now known as sredna [13:19] stdin : http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/otherosfs/wine I cant see an amd64 version [13:19] well i rather use my 64bit to the fullest thats why i bought it :[ what headaches flash will install now [13:19] admiralsausage: dunno, is there one linked off that one on topic? [13:19] apparle: read the link, it has 64bit instructions [13:20] LiL-JoN: lets see, win32 codecs (playing wma's, etc) skype, and almost any proprietary app that you want will be a pain to run. [13:20] nosrednaekim: not sure what you mean by that, but I can't find one on the mirrors. I guess I'll just wait. [13:20] nosrednaekim: so basically i have no choice? [13:20] "could not verify the integrity of the upgrader application, the application will now exit." sigh, error messages like this without any further advice should _really_ be avoided [13:21] LiL-JoN: I'm just warning you, I personally use 64 bit, but I have been using linux for over 5 years, [13:21] nosrednaekim: why do they make b4bit anyways?

[13:44] WaltzingAlong: where can i find the update for kopete, cause its not updating via apt-get [13:45] swanfl: it's still gutsy only [13:45] swanfl: so my guess is no [13:45] no worries I'm gonna be using gutsy anyway :) [13:45] anyone know why i don't have the version upgrade button? it's saying there's 0 updates left, but no version upgrade button [13:46] Hoondie: kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [13:46] kikoo [13:46] that line should be in the topic [13:47] hay all, does anyone know why my Full Upgrade button is not lit? [13:47] shadowhywind: kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [13:47] should i be skeered to hit the upgrade button [13:47] blendtux: just download the file from the link and open it [13:48] hey all - gutsy all up and running - just noticed that the upgrade UNinstalled vmware-player, and apt-get doesn't want to install it- any ideas? [13:48] wich link [13:48] http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb [13:48] anyone else having problems with upgrade? [13:48] thanks [13:48] Package vmware-player is not available, but is referred to by another package.This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source [13:48] l3dx: lacking version upgrade button? [13:49] thanks that worked [13:49] elSandros, yuo [13:49] yup [13:49] thought so [13:49] followed the instructions. but no luck [13:49] run "kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [13:49] and the button will be there [13:49] even tried changing to the repos to "main server" [13:49] i just got a "Could not verify the integrity of the upgrader application. This program will now exit" [13:49] it'll probably fail the first time, though [13:49] elSandros, k thanks! :D [13:50] give a cannot-verify-type-of-thingy [13:50] so just quit adept when it does, and run it again [13:51] little odd way of doing it.. but it seams to be working [13:52] "you have to download a total of 1806M" [13:52] blendtux: there is an update for that http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb [13:52] thanks :) [13:52] kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" <-- Works great [13:52] yeah i am installing it already thanks [13:52] yup, working well here too...so far [13:53] hey all - gutsy all up and running - just noticed that the upgrade UNinstalled vmware-player, and apt-get doesn't want to install it- any ideas? [13:53] elSandros, thanks again! I'm upgrading :) [13:53] Is there any reason for someone with a laptop and a not great GFX card to upgrade to gutsy? [13:53] spykedtomato: try downloading vmware-server? [13:53] BluesKaj : updating going well? [13:53] is it correct when i want to install this update that it wants to remove several other packages [13:53] Since the main benefit appears to be the accelerated desktop [13:54] sllllloooowwwwww [13:54] how do i install java [13:54] ? [13:54] !java [13:54] 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. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) or earlier. [13:54] CPrompt^, yes , so far [13:54] xevious: yes! I'm only getting 150kb/s [13:54] easytiger: i don't really need the whole server, just the player.... [13:54] I should have done like it did with feisty [13:54] bottiger: lucky. i'm rockin' 65 right now [13:54] upgrade two days later [13:54] bottiger: jumps up to 200 at times [13:54] CPrompt^, the DL speeds are a bit slow but that's to be expected [13:54] i wanna play with compiz [13:54] BluesKaj : good to hear. My upgrade to Fiesty didn't go so well. I have *a lot* of extra packages so I hope that it will go ok. [13:55] i wonder how many thousands of people are updating right now [13:55] BluesKaj : I'll probably wait a few days and then upgrade anyway. [13:56] CPrompt^, a hint: update feisty first then do the upgrade to gutsy [13:56] Adept doesn't show Upgrade button [13:56] BluesKaj : yeah. I keep my feisty all up to date. I think there was a package released yesterday.. [13:57] i want to install this http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=java.com:80 [13:57] yeah CPrompt^ , i just noticed that today for the first time in ages [13:57] this upgrade will take half a day [13:57] plz someone how can i update feisty to gutsy gibon? [13:58] see the topic [13:58] and [13:58] !upgrade [13:58] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [13:58] I'm shutting ktorrent down for a while ,need all the BW I can get right now :) [13:58] BluesKaj : just makes me nervous I guess. Upgrade last time totaly made my computer useless for some reason. I have a lot of extras. Oh well. That's why we backup LOL [13:58] Hi everyone. I'm in a reaaaally messy situation right now. [13:59] What's going on SteamMachine? [13:59] I had ubuntu, I install kubuntu desktop, removed ubuntu desktop... and when I rebooted, I logged in as usual, but was greeted with an xterm terminal [13:59] I can run programs from this terminal, but I don't know how to get kde to launch in its entireity. [13:59] Hi! [13:59] SteamMachine, sudo apt-get install kubuntu desktop [13:59] I just downloaded the fix for Kopete. [13:59] err [13:59] kubuntu-desktop [13:59] =) [13:59] SteamMachine, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [13:59] BluesKaj: I alsready tried that. [14:00] It is installed. [14:00] Anybody? [14:00] I believe I saw something like "kde.pid not found" during bootup. [14:00] x_link: got one for x64? [14:00] SteamMachine: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-default-settings [14:00] I saw one in launchpad but it was quite large [14:00] stdin: but when i want to do full upgrade that option is greyed out in adept [14:01] XenThraL: No. [14:01] xenol: as me [14:01] hello all! I installed Gutsy rc few days ago. My general impression is good, however I wondered if any one of you guys is annoyed by hidden File Associations config panel. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-systemsettings/+bug/50320 The bug has been reported a year ago but IMHO has a new importance due to Dolphin. If anyone wants a simple solution, i posted a patch as the last comment. [14:01] bleeeeeeh that bug is annoying me [14:01] don't like pidgin :| [14:01] already newest version [14:01] what's this update for kopete that people are talking about? [14:01] XenThraL: I can't connect to Kopete, cause it crashes. So I just downloaded this fix. [14:02] I'm wondering if it shipped with that bug? which I'm guessing it didn't, what makes me wander if I should wipe my tribe 5 and install fresh [14:02] x_link: a while ago I found kopete kept crashing. [14:02] * genii sips a coffee and digs around for his allergy medication [14:02] To fix it, I uninstalled and deleted the hidden folder in /home [14:02] SteamMachine: Yes, I just downloaded a fix for it. It's a .deb file. [14:02] stdin: its still "dl'ing and verifying hte upgrade tool" lol. thats an hour wait [14:02] genii: people just mowed my lawn, my eyes are burning. [14:02] argh. there's a known bug in kopete? i really should have waited at least a week before upgrading [14:02] genii: i've never had allergies before this year. [14:02] Ahh [14:03] i want to install this http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=java.com:80 how do i install it [14:03] I don't have issues nowadays. [14:03] could you post a link to the bug and the fix? [14:03] I don't understand what's wrong. [14:03] LiL-JoN, either follow the instruction in the java site, or use the ubuntu ways of installing java [14:03] Kde is installed, the system is running, but kde won't run on bootup and I don't know how to make it. [14:03] SteamMachine: you get your login screen, right? [14:03] xevious: I never had any til about 5 years ago. now they are horrible, especially in spring and fall [14:03] yep [14:03] SteamMachine: Did you just install Kubuntu? [14:03] noam i just want the newest version of java [14:03] SteamMachine: what runs on bootup? you need to pick kde as your session at the login manager [14:03] yes, [14:03] xevious: ping [14:04] SteamMachine: log out of X if you're in it, and check which session is selected [14:04] is there a kubuntu torrent yet? [14:04] it's kde [14:04] Jucato: yo. [14:04] I've checked it many times. [14:04] Jucato: sorry. pong [14:04] xevious : how did u get urs to start dl'ing so fast? mine is still dl'in and verifying the upgrade tool??? after an hour [14:04] LiL-JoN: jre or jdk? [14:04] xevious: hehe yo or pong would do. [14:04] Rebecca: yes [14:04] when upgrading from feisty to gutsy, I see 1 install and just 42 upgrades available, is this correct? [14:04] xevious: could you file a bug/wish for that in Launchpad if you don't mind (about the adept notifier thingy) [14:04] sounds like nothing [14:04] WaltzingAlong: url? [14:05] I have installed gnome, just the basics, and that won't load either. Though as I said, I can run programs from it. [14:05] elSandros: how do i know what i need cause some java doesnt work [14:05] xevious: so that we could formally discuss it with the guys who do the coding on adept :) [14:05] Rebecca: releases.ubuntu.com [14:05] Soon I want to simply reinstall from a CD... but until then... [14:05] WaltzingAlong: thanks :) [14:06] Jucato: sure thing. [14:06] does upgrading to gutsy require the use of backports? [14:06] xevious: thanks [14:06] Jucato: just gotta familiarize myself with launchpad [14:06] xevious: take your time. we have about 4 months :) [14:06] LiL-JoN: just try "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre" [14:06] where i can download kubuntu gusty [final] ? [14:06] DevideZero: nowhere... [14:06] xenol: kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [14:06] It's not released yet. [14:06] Oh wait. [14:07] lol [14:07] Hm. the site said it wasn't. [14:07] elSandros: i love you [14:07] SteamMachine , nowhere ? [] so what i should do if i want to insall it ? [14:07] wait until it's released? [14:07] Jucato: so i register first, then which section do i post in? [14:08] SteamMachine , but today is the 18 oct ... [14:08] So um. Is there *any* way to fix my issue? [14:08] well. [14:08] gutsy is out [14:08] i thort is was released [14:08] maybe it is. === Tstnz is now known as pizzicato` [14:08] lol [14:08] !final [14:08] If you installed a Tribe/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Gutsy. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [14:08] xevious: I'll get a link [14:08] SteamMachine: did you log out and choose kde as your session? [14:08] I'm not sure. I thought that it was coming out a little later, because of the time difference. [14:08] http://kubuntu.org/download.php#latest [14:09] xevious: yes, I did. [14:09] SteamMachine: whats wrong with starting froms scratch lol [14:09] WaltzingAlong: so it did ship with the kopete bug? [14:09] xevious: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug and just pick adept as the package [14:09] Well, guess I don't need to d/l anything then ;) Cept unless if i need to install it somewhere else that is... [14:09] how odd [14:09] Jucato: thanks [14:09] LiL-JoN: nothing? why...? [14:09] SteamMachine: well why not install from cd and start fresh [14:09] Jucato: you recommend that i hide my email address or not? [14:09] XenThraL: actually the bug is not in kopete [14:10] xevious: your choice :) [14:10] kdelibs, right? [14:10] are there untrustworthy people here? do you hide yours? [14:10] SteamMachine: so you wont have to deal with side effects of this problem [14:10] argh , is this thing ever gonna start the upgrade? how long have other people waited? [14:10] because a) I don't have the CD b) it's beneficial in this instance to recover the system. [14:10] Jucato ^ [14:10] rewolf: a long time people have said its took a hour [14:10] b4 the upgrade starts? [14:11] rewolf: no to finish it [14:11] oh [14:11] mine has said "Downloading and Verifying the upgrade tool..." for and hour [14:11] xevious: I don't [14:11] rewolf: im installing from desktop cd so i wont worry about that [14:12] there is a cd somewhere, and if I find it, I probably will just reinstall. [14:12] However... [14:12] rewolf: just be patient :) [14:12] I need to get back what I had first. [14:12] SteamMachine: ill try help you figure out how to fix it? [14:13] sure. [14:13] how do I identify and uninstall programs that I installed from source about a million years ago? [14:13] upgrade wizard doesn't starts, any tip? [14:13] Greenery: I will be, as soon as i know that other people have also sat on the same message for an hour ; and that its normal, and will progress [14:13] how exactly do you plan to help? (I don't mean to sound snappy - just that I'm not sure what would be useful here) [14:14] i can't install vmware-player because it says i have an old installation,but the old one isnt working... I installed it from source right after having installed feisty -- now i'm in gutsy... [14:14] rewolf: it did happen to me when i upgrade feisty ro gutsy RC [14:14] ok cool. thank u [14:14] now i can get to my physics studying [14:14] lol [14:15] hi, i'm using a custom kernel with feisty, but would rather not. is there a gutsy kernel that will give me support for 4GB of RAM and preempt for my usb mic out of the box? [14:15] SteamMachine: is this your problemo http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde&m=108055712504728&w=2 [14:15] Jucato: is there any general convention for tagging the summary? should i put something like [usability] adept notifier runs during adept-instigated dist-upgrade? or scratch the [usability] part? [14:15] !4gb [14:15] xevious: scratch the tagging [14:15] I checked "recommended updates" *but NOT* "unsupported updates"... then clicked on fetch updates *but* I do not have any updates or upgrades :/ [14:15] Jucato: right-o [14:15] LiL-JoN: maybe - I can't open it. there's no way for me to switch windows at the moment. [14:16] upgrade wizard doesn't starts, followed the instructions, but didn't help, any tip? [14:16] SteamMachine: can we make a privet chat and ill paste it? === x_ is now known as kutxiflin [14:17] SteamMachine: join LiL-JoN [14:17] LiL-JoN: sure [14:17] MidMark: you're not alone, I too am experiencing no upgrade through adept [14:17] :( [14:17] vbgunz: interestinh [14:18] I've tried to change also servers but didn't help too [14:18] WaltzingAlong: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/153500 [14:18] Sorry, I don't know anything about 4gb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [14:18] * byewindows back [14:18] finally the x64 packages, if anyone else asks you can point them there :) [14:18] thanks Riddell [14:18] sorry, what the matter with this ati compilation http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41058/ ? [14:18] Arggh... [14:19] XenThraL: how happy are you! :D [14:19] LiL-JoN: hey :) [14:19] yes well, now to reconstruct the mess I did in my /.kde... [14:19] I juste think to you LiL-JoN ! Sorry, what the matter with this ati compilation http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41058/ ? === muzzle_ is now known as |Muzzle| [14:19] I tried, sudo apt-get update|upgrade|dist-upgrade. followed steps to do it through adept with no luck. I am unable to upgrade to gutsy. anyone know how or why? [14:20] vbgunz: cat /etc/lsb-release which version are you using? [14:21] lsb_release -a works too :) [14:21] WaltzingAlong: ubuntu 7.04 feisty [14:21] Jucato: thanks [14:21] * genii hands WaltzingAlong a coffee [14:21] * WaltzingAlong thanks genii [14:21] * Jucato is jealous... though doesn't deserve to be handed out anything lately [14:21] vbgunz: and you have been following the upgrade instructions? [14:21] * genii hands Jucato a coffee as well [14:22] WaltzingAlong: Anytime [14:22] yes, I enabled recommended updates BUT NOT unsupported updates. I tried to fetch updates but upgrading never becomes an option [14:22] apt-get dist-upgrade will upgrade to gutsy ? [14:22] genii: thanks, but like I said, I don't deserve it :) [14:22] byewindows: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3557421 [14:22] I tried apt-get dist-upgrade after update and upgrade and all return nothing to update :( [14:23] vbgunz: my problem was 3rd party repositories causing it to bomb [14:23] Jucato: You told someone to sudo rm -rf /* lately? ;) [14:23] vbgunz: that can be [14:23] Okay, what exactly is it that causes kde/gnome to start when one logs in? [14:23] i disabled those and its going without a hitch [14:23] genii: nah... just not doing my "job" well lately [14:23] I'll try disabling 3rd party and see if that works [14:23] vbgunz: how about the instructions here http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade [14:24] one sec, will look [14:24] Jucato: Ah :( Well hopefully caffeine will help keep you alert so you can [14:24] hope so too [14:24] WaltzingAlong: yes I tried those exactly [14:24] WaltzingAlong: that instructions doesn't work!!! [14:25] update wizard won't show [14:25] no version upgrade? [14:25] no [14:25] nothing [14:25] try this link: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuFeistyKnownProblems [14:25] eh sorry wrong one [14:25] vbgunz: do you have software-properties-kde installed? [14:26] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes === stijn_ is now known as Kamos [14:26] Greenery: that known issues page is so glossed it hurts [14:26] WaltzingAlong: not sure, how do I check? [14:27] pasted the wrong link >.< [14:27] vbgunz: check it in adept manager [14:27] LiL-JoN: in fact I don't understand well. I should do the sh ./ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run with my user instead to be root ? [14:27] should I replace feisty in apts sources.list with gutsy? [14:27] vbgunz: or sudo aptitude software-properties-kde [14:27] vbgunz: could you enable pre-released updates [14:27] sudo aptitude install [14:27] yeah [14:27] vbgunz: you could but this upgrade process will do that for you [14:27] (if you're trying to install) === LjL3 is now known as LjL [14:27] byewindows: run with user [14:28] vbgunz: or sudo aptitude install software-properties-kde (oops forgot install) [14:28] WaltzingAlong: I have software-properties-kde installed [14:28] no update for me [14:28] LiL-JoN: I have the same error [14:28] I don't wish to enable unsupported updates. they all seem to be coming from backports [14:28] MidMark: how far do you get? [14:28] byewindows: Make sure its executable bit is set also so it runs [14:28] I see more people have problems upgrading? The upgrade button won't appear? [14:28] vbgunz: yes that's backports. please enable pre-released updates [14:28] WaltzingAlong: what? [14:28] am checking with adept if I have it [14:29] MidMark: in the process, the steps, how far do you get? [14:29] enable unsupported updates to upgrade to gutsy? [14:29] well this is weird, installation of gutsy went without a hitch on my machine. [14:29] byewindows: right click the file select permissions and select make executable [14:29] vbgunz: no! not unsuported [14:29] my gf's however isnt [14:29] vbgunz: pre-release [14:29] make the upgrade button (magically) appear! kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [14:29] LiL-JoN: chmod u+x ./ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run ? [14:30] byewindows: yes [14:30] the compilation doesn't work too oO [14:30] WaltzingAlong: I had always turned on recommended updates, all updated, but no update wizard [14:30] 10 hours spend on my Ati ^^ [14:30] can be that I have kde 3.5.7? [14:30] hi [14:30] MidMark: even pre-release updates? [14:31] Jucato: no pre no [14:31] but they are not mentioned in the instruction [14:31] byewindows: um I'm trying to think whatelse could be interfering [14:31] MidMark: working on that.. [14:31] should I enable them? [14:31] adept really hogs the system when updating :( [14:31] I had the same problems with upgrading and the kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" command helped me, upgrade tool is downloading [14:31] MidMark: trying to confirm... [14:32] for the past upgrades to Beta and RC, they were needed [14:32] -rwxr--r-- 1 byewindows byewindows 53989404 2007-10-18 14:55 ./ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run [14:32] how do i delete a kernel [14:32] weird [14:32] ok, I swear I said pre-relase updates before and it didn't work. but it's seeing an upgrade now [14:32] upgrade only 18 packages [14:32] wow, thats gutsy? [14:32] vbgunz: no [14:33] I tried adept_manager --version-upgrade and it did something, but now it says : "Could not verify the integrity of the upgrader application. This program will now exit." [14:33] vbgunz: that should update adept first [14:33] Jucato: turned on, now shows 20 updates [14:33] baaack [14:33] SteamMachine: did it work? [14:33] nope [14:33] byewindows: another user yesterday had a similar issue. He had put the file not in his home dir and it would not run. Perhaps put it into /home , make sure it is owned by that user/group and executable. It is agui installer so don't use sudo to run it. Use instead from konsole or alt-f2 kdesu [14:33] Jucato: so download the 20 updates under "full upgrade" and then the real gutsy will be available to me? [14:33] vbgunz, MidMark: that should update adept to a new version that has the --version-upgrade feature [14:33] do i just do aptitude dist-upgrade to upgrade from feisty to gutsy? [14:33] hi to the room [14:34] plz someone can tell me how can i update feisty to gutsy gibon? [14:34] Jucato: don't confirm, adept isn't in the list of the 20ies [14:34] Kamos: select a diggerent mirror not the main server [14:34] MidMark: hm... [14:34] Ok, I'll try [14:34] SteamMachine: join my channel [14:34] To recap for everyone here... [14:34] I have kubuntu installed. [14:34] byewindows: The ls -l result there shows you should do something like chmod 755 < [14:35] The major issue here is that when I log in, I get a graphical xterm console.

I have followed the steps on http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php but i dont get the "Version Upgrade" button. I have checked on all kubuntu updates [14:52] !ati | byewindows [14:52] what files in .kde would I have to delete or edit or copy to reset my panels to default [14:52] byewindows: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [14:53] miked: ~/.kde/share/config/kickerrc [14:53] right now I can't configure them becuase I can't right click them [14:53] chuso: press Alt-F2 and put in: kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [14:53] chuso: (quotes do matter) [14:53] thanks stdin! [14:53] can you just delete will kde make new ones at reboot? [14:54] or copy from known good? [14:54] miked: just that 1 single file [14:54] if you move/delete all of ~/.kde, you basically move/delete all your personal kde settings and data [14:54] Jucato: i just replied [14:54] hmm [14:55] xevious: and I was about to reply. but you beat me. maybe later :) [14:55] i don't know what to delete to make space...there's not enough space even after cleaning apt cache [14:56] Jucato: i like this. a good compromise, because my only gripe was that it was illogical saying there were updates available while it was doing a major update. [14:56] Jucato: we dont have to stop adept from running altogether [14:56] xevious: yeah I like the compromise too. and since you agreed w/ it, I don't feel like putting in my own 2 centavos :) [14:57] xevious: technically adept isn't running... adept_notifier is... and it's actually the only one in the adept brothers that doesn't really lock apt down [14:57] i am having problems updating to gutsy following the tips on http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php [14:57] The model of the card is in the 9xxx series, 9500 or higher, or it is in the X series (e.g. X300), or it has TV-Out capability.

[14:58] xevious: you'll really have to ask the dev(s) [14:58] MidMark: any luck? [14:58] yes I do I'm going to do some editing to see what happens at the least I'll copy a known good one from another login [14:58] Jucato: right-o [14:58] wow! 421 nics! :D [14:59] vbgunz: worked only with kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" command [14:59] really [14:59] miked: you can move/delete that file and KDE will generate a new one if you modify kicker [14:59] Sorry for the stupid questions but do the repository names change now that there is a release? [14:59] Jucato: it's probably beyond me, but i'm gonna grab the source and poke around [14:59] hmmm, am on the last of my 18 packages... I'll try that next :) [14:59] xevious: apt-get source adept :D [14:59] Jucato: gotta wait for this dist-upgrade :) [15:00] 3 hours left :\ [15:00] :) [15:00] didnt kde 4 beta 3 have a start menu ?? [15:01] can someone help me with upgrading? i get kdesu "adept --version-upgrade" is unknown command. [15:02] Is anybody else having problems executing kdesu "adept --version-upgrade"? Because apparently it doesn't exist. [15:02] xenol: kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [15:02] ...that was convenient [15:03] In the "upgrade" section of the KDE site. It says at one point to: Press alt+F2 and type kdesu "adept --version-upgrade" [15:03] is there a way to list the sizes of installed packages, ordered from the largest? [15:03] OK, gutsy installed replacing Debian Sid (which I had for 5 years) hopefully the keyboard will be recognised with an install [15:03] Greenery : lol i decided to press cancel, restart and try again. and it instantaneously got past that point [15:03] my computer is telling me that it doesn't recognise the: "adept --version-upgrade" command [15:04] Distribution Release: Ubuntu 7.10 Does this mean Gutsy users are welcome here now?

[15:06] Jucato: so it starts kde right? [15:06] LiL-JoN: basically, yes [15:06] back [15:06] Jucato: do you think that wil fix steammachines problem [15:06] Jucato: I'm in the process of updating the BinaryDriverHowto pages too [15:06] hi [15:06] hello [15:06] w00t [15:06] byewindows: you fix it yet?

I am having a real hard time formatting a device because it is always "in use" [15:13] okay [15:13] but it did give me do-release-upgrade, although it failed just because it couldn't access some unofficial repository [15:13] SteamMachine: did that work?

I installed Gutsy Beta from CD and when I updated Adept the Upgrade button appreared [16:18] Angelus: then grab the dvd [16:18] oh you want the Alternate Cd then [16:18] Angelus: then grab the dvd or the alternate [16:18] Angelus use the alternate cd [16:18] Mithsir: is there any other information you can gather that it is complaining about before the seg fault? [16:18] when doing that upgrade it hangs after downloading and trung to actually install the files [16:18] WaltzingAlong, DCC failed - http://silenceisdefeat.org/~tok3n/snapshot1.jpg [16:19] lee98632: or the DVD :p [16:19] the dvd have both [16:19] :p [16:19] sub[t]rnl: not really... [16:19] yeo_: press refresh ? [16:19] is there any developer here? [16:19] Angelus http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download [16:19] MidMark: #kubuntu-devel [16:19] chose alternate cd [16:19] yes its been fixed now. just providing the screenie as promised ;) [16:19] stdin: yeo_ mentioned that now it shows correctly [16:19] sub[t]rnl: Its a pythonscript - I dunno how to debug it... [16:19] thanks yeo_ [16:20] np [16:20] well, no ones perfect. even the devs make typos [16:20] :) [16:20] yip yip [16:20] stdin: do I have to add a third party repository maybe? [16:21] Vermux: to play what? [16:21] what type [16:21] ahh i think i have to close all open apps during update :( [16:21] Kopete crashes when I try to connect to MSN in brand new Gutsy install :s [16:21] kaminix: it's known, the fix is on it's way [16:21] yes, it says so in the release notes too [16:21] uboto, tried upgrading using apt-get - nothing to upgrade, so why the Version upgrade prompt using Adept? [16:21] kaminix: see Riddell's post on planet.ubuntu.com for a fix [16:22] stdin: should I give him the link? [16:22] stdin: x-mplayer2 [16:22] kaminix: there is already a fix for that https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/153500 fixed packages at the bottom [16:22] Jucato: if you have it, I didn't have it to hand [16:22] stdin: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 just in case.... [16:22] stdin, lontral WaltzingAlong: When will the fix be offical and get into the repos? [16:22] kaminix: it is in proposed already afaik [16:22] Jucato: it should go to topic! [16:22] kaminix: I guess as soon as the freeze on the repositories are lifted [16:23] anyone knows a reason why i cant mount my external hdd (ntfs) even tho i installed the ntfs configuration tool (+enabled it for external drives) [16:23] bbl guys. gonna let it update [16:23] When will the freeze be lifted? [16:23] Paradigm_Shift: you don't need to do a version upgrade, you're already running gutsy [16:23] * Jucato shrugs... [16:23] * RytmenPinnen just followed the steps to upgrade but doesnt have a verions upgrade button [16:23] wow, the mirrors are so full it's difficult to download the torrent files :) [16:23] !final | RytmenPinnen [16:23] RytmenPinnen: If you installed a Tribe/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Gutsy. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [16:23] RytmenPinnen: make sure that pre-release updates are enabled [16:23] RytmenPinnen: see the link in the topic [16:24] erg canadas the only one with power to keep up lol [16:24] RytmenPinnen: sudo aptitude install software-properties-kde [16:24] RytmenPinnen: the instructions were updated a few hours ago [16:24] * RytmenPinnen is runnin 7.04 [16:24] stdin, I understand that :). How can I get Adept to stop prompting to perform an upgrade (as opposed to a dist-upgrade)? [16:24] ok [16:24] stdin, should I edit the apt.sources??? [16:24] Paradigm_Shift: I don't know what you mean, what it adept doing? [16:24] try the bloody Iso files there overloaded aswell [16:25] Iam hitting canada [16:25] and its even slow [16:25] its the only one that is working atm [16:25] anyone knows a reason why i cant mount my external hdd (ntfs) even tho i installed the ntfs configuration tool (+enabled it for external drives) [16:25] stdin, in Adept, after fetching updates I get a new button on the tool bar for a version upgrade (as opposed to the full upgrade button that is always visible). [16:25] and its at 18.kpbs [16:26] kowesix: no give us more data. what are you doing to mount it? [16:26] kowesix: how is it not mounting? That is, how are you trying to mount it [16:26] stdin, if I click on the Version Upgrade, the process goes fine - files download, etc. But it stalls at the step of actually installing the files it successfully downloaded [16:26] where can I find this in kubuntu :Click Applications → Add/Remove. In the top right, change the setting to All available applications. Then select Other in the left panel and then select the Ubuntu restricted extras package. Click OK. [16:26] :) beat me to it [16:26] Paradigm_Shift: so you want it to no longer show that a new version of kubuntu is available? [16:27] mhm more details.. just turning it on and waiting for automount... :) then it says something like: hal-storage-removeable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000 [16:27] !info kubuntu-restricted-extras | Vermux [16:27] vermux: kubuntu-restricted-extras: Commonly used restricted packages.

[16:28] WaltzingAlong, ummmm, errrr, yessss, but I really just want to make sure that the system is correctly updated and in sync with 7.10 final. [16:28] Paradigm_Shift: report that on launchpad and show the report in #kubuntu-devel [16:28] holy cow this is gna take fior ever.......estemated time is 15 hours [16:28] back [16:28] WaltzingAlong: and what I suppose to do with this information? [16:28] and thats high speed net [16:28] lee98632: wait till tomorrow then [16:29] kowesix: I've never had a problem with ntfs external harddrives. Have you tried going into systemsettings/kcontrol and making a mountpoint for it? [16:29] Vermux: i thought you wanted to install the kubuntu restricted extras (in ubuntu it is called ubuntu-restricted-extras) so use whatever way you prefer to install the package. apt-get, aptitude, adept, so on [16:29] lee98632: or saturday ... till the flood stops [16:29] ok if I restart upgrade says that a process is locking all, which is? [16:29] yeah I have it updated already, I just wanted to test something on a second HDD [16:29] WaltzingAlong: I want to, but what do I type in the Search field? [16:30] re there really that many people using this? [16:30] lee98632: all the mirrors are going to be super slow because of the load on them ... you should use bittorrent :) [16:30] Vermux: with adept manager ? restricted [16:30] Vermux: with adept manager ? kubuntu-restricted-extras would be it exactly [16:30] lee98632: there are ~1500 people in #ubuntu right now [16:30] don't know how to [16:30] *faints* [16:30] lee98632: just download the .torrent file and ktorrent will automatically open and start seeding it [16:31] scheater7: i just noticed i cant create folders in the /media/ folder via gui.. and via cli he says mission denied -.- [16:31] anything thinking majors releases like this should be done through torrent (like WoW) so each just updating packages is getting them through the torrent? [16:31] so in a way Id be helping others then [16:31] lee98632: in regards to bittorrent, I'm downloading the amd64 iso right now and getting 100+KS/s [16:31] lee98632: then the torrent file will be saved like an ordinary .iso [16:31] lee98632: exactly [16:31] *make that KB/s === bucatoamano is now known as Maryjaneficarott [16:31] ok how do I go aobut doing that nd how many should I alow? [16:31] WaltzingAlong: I found ubuntu restricted extras [16:31] nvm scheater7, worked with sudo and now i'm able to mount it :D thanks [16:32] kowesix: I was just about to suggest you check the file ownership [16:32] I was a subscriber to cnet's RSS feeds for about 5 mins ...shoulda known they nothing but a poorly disguised promoter of MS apps and products and not so poorly disguised anti-linux [16:32] WaltzingAlong: is that it? === Maryjaneficarott is now known as bucat [16:32] kowesix: The folder is set so that root only can edit it.

[16:38] scheater7: gentoo has everything up to date [16:38] WaltzingAlong: amsn can be installed in kubuntu [16:38] but its an outdated version [16:38] :s [16:38] :S [16:38] Angelus: sure it can be [16:39] i know it can be [16:39] :/ [16:39] thats what im telling you [16:39] but its OUTDATED [16:39] Angelus: what do you need the newest version for?

[16:42] BluesKaj: use bittorrent and share :) [16:43] Vermux: if you accept the sun java license; the terms of how you can use java [16:43] WaltzingAlong: are conflicts going to ocur if I download it? because it seems it is not free [16:43] lee98632, 64bit leaves quite a few holes I'm afraid...still not ready for prime time IMHO [16:43] WaltzingAlong: but kubuntu is free and java is licenced [16:43] sure so do you want sun's java?

Is it better to just use 'apt-get' ? [16:50] ok guys I have this situation [16:50] yamar: Yes, I thin kso [16:50] WaltzingAlong: it still not playing the video. Do I have to sign out kubuntu? [16:51] a package segmented fault and throw away me from updrade, now I'm able to restart upgrade but it crash soon without restarting [16:51] thx thorns that's what i thought [16:51] any idea??? [16:51] yamar: it adept poops out on you ... just use apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade after [16:51] yamar: The most frequent bug I had with Tribe 5 was that what Adept couldn't install, apt and aptitude could [16:51] er ... apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade [16:51] the mirror has been broken unable to host [16:52] lontra: could be help me aswell? [16:52] MidMark: do you do this through adept? [16:53] lontra: the update stopped and now I'm unable to restart it [16:53] well it restarts but then close [16:53] Are there any tools in Kubuntu's install to make use of full disk encryption? What I would really like is a system that has /boot on a removable USB drive (which would also contain the keys) so that nothing on the laptop is unencrypted. [16:53] MidMark: what i'd suggest is 1. make sure your /etc/apt/sources.list is pointed to Gutsy and not Edgy (change the word Edgy to Gutsy), then run sudo apt-get update (from a terminal), then run sudo apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade [16:53] MidMark: that'll give you gutsy [16:53] thorns: Not a bug as such, just that aptitude and apt-get handle dependencies better than Adept [16:54] bipolar: check out truecrypt. I don't know a thing about encryption, but I've heard that word batted around with respect. [16:54] thorns: and aptitude handles dependencies better than apt-get [16:54] genii eh jsut a sec [16:56] Everybody and their uncle mus be downloading. :) Transfer rate went from 200+ down to 15 in the past two hours. LOL [16:56] OH TY genni [16:56] Hrm... is there any easy way to change the passwordprompt for sudo in Gutsy so that it'll look like it used to? [16:56] kaminix: no [16:56] Okay. [16:57] Hi. I just went through a Kubuntu upgrade, and at the very end (during the cleaning of the obsolete packages), update-manager started hogging >90% of memory, and eventually crashed X [16:57] lee98632: np [16:57] Suppose I'll live... :p [16:57] I had to reboot [16:57] yeah it's around 20kb/s now :/ [16:57] bipolar: why go to all the hassle, just encrypt your files wich are realy important to you, besides a encrypted file system is slow [16:57] gutsy came up, but adept manager still reports "version upgrade" as possible [16:57] scheater7: yes, I've used it before, but it's not good for full system encryption. [16:57] WaltzingAlong: do I need to install sun-java5-plugin? [16:57] as I said, the installer was ALMOST done (at the cleaning up stage) [16:57] lee98632: I already now have it compiled for kernel 2.6.20-16-generic [16:57] blendtux: this situation needs full disk. [16:57] should I go through the version upgrade again? [16:57] eh I think I have a bigger issue...bad wweathres on ethe way...looks like it just might down right get nasty [16:58] or is that a stupid thing when the installer aaalmost completed [16:58] oh cool genni [16:58] Iam on 32 bit atm [16:58] do I need to install sun-java5-plugin? [16:59] I seem to have a similar problem to MidMarks; I started a dist-upgrade through adept, which aborted due to a lack of space in /boot. I corrected the problem and attempted to upgrade again. Adept gives me the option to upgrade again, but the upgrade-tool itself says my system is up to date and aborts. apt-get update,upgrade,dist-upgrade does nothing. Any ideas? [16:59] bipolar: did you have a look at the existing howtos at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/?action=fullsearch&value=encryptedfilesystem&titlesearch=Titles ? [17:00] OH SH...were in for a rough time ..I think wel llose pwoer onthis one [17:00] stdin: how do I Select the default Java version- sun 6?? [17:00] any one here in wa state? [17:00] got this -> http://pastebin.com/m78183b73 [17:00] any idea? [17:01] bipolar: i've used a combination of 2 or 3 howtos there. everything encrypted with one "weak spot"-password encrypted partition which gets mounted and holds the key files for /boot, /, /home and swap [17:01] Vermux: "sudo update-alternatives --config java" [17:02] genni i added it o my book mark...right now i have to go to store and get emrgencey suplies [17:02] Hi. I just went through a Kubuntu upgrade, and at the very end (during the cleaning of the obsolete packages), update-manager started hogging >90% of memory, and eventually crashed X. I then had to reboot. Gutsy came up fine, but adept manager now still reports a version upgrade as being available. Should I go through the procedure again, or will that cause problems? [17:03] eh what happens when 2 low presures meet? [17:03] equalization [17:04] seezer: that last one is what I'm looking for, except only /boot being 'week' and on a usb memory stick. :) [17:04] take care guys Ill be on once the storm sdissapates [17:04] er... s/week/weak [17:05] bipolar: just combinate those howtows - there is one with "encrypted everything" (one with password - just replace from there) [17:05] um guys [17:06] I would be doing my part if you lived in Wa state and did get this waringin but crrently we are under a watch [17:06] Hi there, how can I get a list of all installed packages?

[17:12] a wierd thing. i installed gutsy beta before, and updated all the time. and now that gutsy is official out i have the option in adept to upgrade and it does a full upgrade as if from feisty????!!!! was thinking a quick update from beta to release is what needed [17:12] cosmic_: I'm betting you got upgraded to 8.41 which only supports really new cards [17:12] the-erm: I'll need to dl and burn the new release. I was doing upgrading via adept. [17:12] uhm, my "distribution update tool" doesn't want to run after I close the "version update" wizard, anyone have the same issue? or know how to run it manually? [17:13] frb-work: well i did a "update-manager -c" and after that kde didnt want to start [17:13] Shoot I'm scared to upgrade now. [17:13] Ben_Cs: I'm guessing it's a bug (waiting on confirmation), ignore it for now [17:13] Adept Updater keeps bugging me to upgrade to Gutsy even though I already did.

I folled the instructions for using Adept to do a full upgrade. I did -- it took about 5 mins -- and rebooted but it doesn't seem like anything changed. How can I tell if it worked? [17:28] sweet [17:28] flawless upgrade [17:29] * stdin gives xevious a "I upgraded to Gutsy and survived" sticker [17:29] yay! [17:29] xevious: I did a console login and it still reports Ubuntu 7.04 [17:29] * xevious applies it to his case [17:29] snowdonkey: mine says 7.10 [17:30] ok [17:30] snowdonkey: lsb_release -a [17:30] snowdonkey: that's probably because /etc/issue was not updated for some reason; it's just an arbitrary textfile for the login prompt [17:30] i am upset that mouse scrolling and hiding the scrollbar are gone from kopete [17:30] jdong: Ok. Here's the output of that command: Distributor ID: Ubuntu [17:30] Description: Ubuntu 7.04 [17:30] Release: 7.04 [17:30] Codename: feisty [17:30] hi everybody, i have a question about digikam 0.9.3-beta 1. has someone here compiled it successfully? i get errors when trying it, although configure didn't complain [17:30] Good morning all. [17:30] snowdonkey: hmm it still thinks it's feisty [17:31] snowdonkey: you followed http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade is to the letter? [17:31] Is there any way to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 using only the 7.10 CD? No network connection? [17:31] kubuntu seems to be doen loading a ok lol [17:31] hi [17:31] SDuensin: only with the alternate CD [17:32] stdin - Crap. I didn't download that one. :-) [17:32] SDuensin: Use apt-cdrom to read it as source [17:32] the upgrade process from the kubuntu rc to release isn't working. It throws an error about libportaudio0 being unsupported now, then says there are no upgrades available and the distro upgrade process is canceled. [17:32] stdin: I followed the instructions here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading they're slightly different... [17:32] snowdonkey: yeah, use the one in the topic until a bug or two are fixed [17:32] stdin: Ok thx. [17:33] evilidler - What do I do after I add the CD to sources? [17:33] Hi there - trying to ugprade with adept_manager --version-upgrade, I get: "Failed to fetch: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2". It's under the modifying the software channels. Anyone seen this before? [17:33] the desktop CD doesn't have packages to install (well, only a couple) [17:33] I can download the package using wget. [17:33] I've upgraded to Gutsy, but Adept Updater doesn't believe me. How do I convince it? [17:33] hmmm, I haven't upgarded my gutsy rc since yesterday and since today the final was released I would think I get lots of update when doing apt-get update & apt-get upgrade, but nothing, it sais 0 upgradable packages [17:34] anyone any idea how this is possible? [17:34] LogicalDash: you mean adept still shows the "Version Upgrade" button after it's upgraded? [17:34] Anyone know why desktop icons would not show up on desktop when added? [17:34] SDuensin: Well, if you have the full DVD or CDs, you should be able to add it as a source, and apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade [17:34] stdin, precisely [17:34] Okay, I've just downloaded all the gutsy packages and reached the "Installing the upgrades" part, but got an error about how "debconf" and two x11 packages couldn't be installed.

[17:35] xevious: oh well thanks :) [17:35] LogicalDash: shouldn't be there for too much longer [17:35] thomas__: because a short while before the release all repositories were frozen [17:36] is there a known bug/issue involving problems mounting vfat partitions, or is it just me? [17:36] thomas__: (a short while meaning about a day) [17:36] stdin: so when will I be able to do the upgrades then? [17:36] bbl [17:36] If anyone is still running a 7.10 beta of kubuntu, could you please PM me the contents of your /etc/lsb-release file? [17:36] thomas__: you already have the final version, you don't need to do any upgrades [17:36] stdin: ah okay :) thanx :) [17:37] stdin: any idea when the kopete msn bug will be fixed [17:37] ? [17:37] Nobody? It's stuck at installing after 3 failed packages. Is there any way to stop the upgrade safely, perhaps? [17:38] thomas__: remember when I said about the repository freeze? the fix was made just after :p so we have to wait until the unfreeze, but there is a fixed deb here http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [17:38] ok i'm getting some odd launch feedback problems [17:39] hello I've a big problem when I try to upgrade my systeme and when trying to install the new packages I get this unable to make backup link of `./usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/openofficeorg23-writer.png' before installing new version: Operation not permitted [17:39] an gapcmon don't work right at all [17:39] what is a good and simple firewall for using on my laptop when i direct connected to the internet for gutsy [17:39] okay thanx again stdin [17:39] * genii hooks DaSkreech up with a coffee [17:39] I just woke up [17:39] * DaSkreech rubs eyes [17:39] any solution for that error ?

Gnome apps and KDE apps can live in KDE and gnome respectively quite fine [18:02] genii: ok, will try that. Is it a very bad idea to remove/install xserver (once I've backed up the .conf files)? [18:02] Ben_Cs: that's commented [18:03] DaSkreech, sure, i am using gentoo on most of my machines ... i am the experimental type .. but the machine running kubuntu is kind of productive environment .... [18:03] dextertwo: no [18:03] simon_: sooo why compiz then? [18:03] so i wont fuck up the drives if i try to chage the size using gnome partition ill give it a try [18:03] DaSkreech: no. imean the ListenAddress command. what does it mean [18:03] hey someone let me know, do i need a firewall [18:03] Ben_Cs: it's the address sshd will listen on (0.0.0.0 = all ipv4 addresses), I remember by default it seems to listen to :: (all ipv6 addresses) [18:03] DaSkreech, i was just curious ;) [18:03] !firewall | rabindra [18:03] rabindra: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). [18:03] i am using net for the first time linux [18:03] rabindra: no [18:03] ubuntu_: i recommend backing up important data first [18:03] DaSkreech: No, don't do it? Or No, it's NOT a bad idea? [18:03] doesn't beryl == compiz now? [18:03] I thought they merged [18:03] dextertwo: Not a bad idea [18:03] el_taco: beryl+compiz = compiz-fusion [18:04] Ben_Cs: I had to change it to connect from an external system [18:04] stdin: both options are commenetd on my file. uncomment them? [18:04] rabindra: if your running a larger network or a web server or something, then maybe [18:04] DaSkreech, i would disable most of the effects ... i just like the expo and realtime-preview features [18:04] DaSkreech: Cheers. [18:04] rabindra: but yeah, iptables already comes with ubuntu, so you have one installed [18:04] Ben_Cs: just the one with "0.0.0.0" on it [18:04] Compiz == compiz Beryl == compiz+fork compiz-fusion == beryl+compiz kissing and making up [18:04] stdin: ok thanks. will try in couple of moments [18:04] hehe [18:04] brb [18:04] rabindra: if you want one then run one [18:04] Ben_Cs: restart sshd after [18:05] DaSkreech: XD [18:05] how do I enable pop ups in konqueror? [18:05] hello everyone; pressing "version upgrade" on Adept manager in a kubuntu system shows a release message pertaining to ubuntu 7.10, not kubuntu. Is this normal? [18:05] DaSkreech, thx anyway, have a nice evening [18:05] hey [18:05] simon_: Those should ship in kde4 in a few weeks :) [18:05] my launch feedback problems are slowly going away [18:05] xevious: :P [18:05] haha. it's like my install is "getting used to" being 7.10 [18:06] how I enable pop ups in konqueror? [18:06] is there some smewth way to enable compiz-fusion, a la ubuntu's desktop effects setting? or just install the packages? [18:06] How do I make konqueror not change it's icon to the websites icon? [18:06] I guess the server's bandwidth is beign saturated? [18:06] xevious: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion for instructions [18:06] stdin: thanks [18:06] xevious: theres the compizconfig-settings-manager to control the settings, theres also a system tray icon out in .deb thats kinda slick [18:07] xevious: other than that just startup compiz like all other kde autostarts [18:07] my adept manager just crashed and says it may be due to some bug in the application [18:07] what am i supposed to do? [18:07] i was installing something [18:07] restart it [18:07] xevious: on 7.10 u dont have to do that, just install the packages [18:08] rabindra: try and run it again. [18:08] so nobody knows why there are again features removed? [18:08] ezr2007: install the packages, log out, log in and you have compiz? [18:08] !adeptfix > rabindra [18:08] rabindra: I've seen it crash on occasion, and it worked fine the next time. [18:08] ezr2007: or is compiz --replace still necessary? [18:08] it is [18:08] yaccin: From? [18:08] AmyRose: konqueror doesnt play the video. nothing is working with this browser [18:09] is there a way to unload a module? like the reverse of 'modprobe module' [18:09] Vermux: try firefox with https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/446 [18:09] xevious: unless you make a script with that in, then place that script in ~/.kde/Autostart [18:09] Vermux: Do you have KMplayer and the xine ffmpeg decoder installed? [18:09] stdin: i'll see how i like it first :) [18:09] thomas__: "rmmod" or "modprobe -r" [18:09] which packages do i need to make the moodbar of amarok work with mp3 files? [18:09] The kopete fix thingie (kdelibs4c2a) gives me problems with kdelibs4-dev: kdelibs4-dev: Depends: kdelibs4c2a (= 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu2) but 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu3 is installed. [18:09] DaSkreech: kopete [18:10] hello, i just upgrade successfully to gutsy i got few questions concerning xgl and compiz [18:10] again [18:10] :( [18:10] how can i enable em? [18:10] the-erm:but why does it crash [18:10] stdin: thanx again :) [18:10] xevious: if you dont kwin -replace compiz will autostart next time [18:10] hi, anyone has an idea, where i can set max cpu freq ? Cause Kubuntu 7.10 runs my pentium m at 1600 MHZ, but it is only a 1500 MHZ CPU [18:10] ezr2007: it shouldn't [18:10] in kubuntu it does [18:11] doesn't here [18:11] Hey guys. Basic question. Any trick involved copying files from a Vista share to Kubuntu? Getting errors here. [18:11] doesn't here [18:11] rabindra: I don't know ... you could always google the error you saw. [18:11] tavoc: i guess in BIOS setup you can set your clock freq [18:11] yaccin: What did it do? [18:11] tavoc: install kpowermanager or something, there you can set your cpu policy [18:11] DaSthe option to hide the scroll bar of the contact list is gone... [18:11] hm, dont know, here it does [18:11] DaSkreech: [18:11] rabindra: no, i cant do that in bios [18:11] tavoc: why? [18:11] thomas__: i will try this, thx [18:12] rabindra: cause my notebook does not have this option [18:12] DaSkreech: in last kubuntu release they removed a patch that solved problems with the toolbars in jabber-windows, which was there 2 versions ago -_- [18:12] tavoc: did you try doing that [18:12] AndyM, I never had any problems reading from my vista share, make sure you mounted it properly [18:12] for eycandy, which is better now on gutsy.. compiz or beryl ? any good docs on setting it up? [18:12] BudgetDedicated: compiz = beryl now [18:12] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion <---- xenol [18:12] BudgetDedicated: beryl is dead [18:12] yeah i looked there already [18:12] BudgetDedicated: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion for instructions [18:13] Yammeh, should it work OK over admin shares also? [18:13] compiz-compcomm-plugins-main worth installing? [18:13] tavoc: well i think you can always enter BIOS setup by press DEL or any other key or you can ask your notebook vendor how to enter it [18:13] xevious: compiz-fusion-plugins* [18:13] yaccin: #kubuntu-devel [18:13] rabindra: yeah i know how i can get the bios, but there is no option to adjust the cpu clock [18:13] AndyM, yes, it works fine for me. [18:14] my KDED Media Manager doesn't autorun anymore, even if it's ticked as enabled, I have to manually start it at every login from the service manager [18:14] ok thank you. i'm trying compiz now [18:14] * xevious is excited to see if this works with the new nvidia drivers - i got the black window bug under feisty [18:15] How new are the nvidia drivers? [18:15] !kompiz is Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [18:15] tavoc: then i cant say much but atleast you can know that from your vendor [18:15] DaSkreech: i am curious if it is enough to install the compizfusion? is xgl running by default? [18:15] holy moly it worked [18:15] Speaking of nvidia I was thinking about getting a nvidia 5200 *specifically* for the svideo out. Anyone here have one, and know that the card, and the svideo both work? [18:15] ok rabindra [18:16] xenol: read the instructions ? [18:16] i've got focus follows mouse, but i just gotta change that [18:16] rabindra: bzt with 7.04 all was ok [18:16] hmm compiz seems to crash on my system [18:16] Does it look good, xevious? [18:16] xevious: To focus follows mind ? [18:16] at least the kdm crashed [18:16] Yammeh: well i havent enabled any stuff yet [18:16] Ah, I can't wait to try it :P [18:17] hmm ok compiz works, but no window manager ;) [18:18] stdin: do i have to restart sshd after changing /etc/ssh/sshd_config? cause just uncommenting didn't help [18:18] How can I set Konqueror to: 1) Make fonts one step larger by default. 2) Always use the konqueror icon instead of the one used by current homepage [18:18] WOOOOW! [18:18] ok compiz is sweet [18:18] Ben_Cs: yes "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart" [18:18] could it be that I need something more in my xorg.conf to use compiz for my intel 945? [18:19] stdin: still - ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host [18:19] BudgetDedicated: compiz is a window manager. if you have no window manger then compiz did not work [18:19] Ben_Cs: I'm not sure then, unless it's something to do with the client > server negotiation [18:20] stdin: ok. will try the forum. thanks [18:20] bbl [18:20] hellou guys, i have a question about adept version upgrade [18:21] If there are dependencies for packages on adept, does it download them too? === hanzz_ is now known as HanzZ [18:21] Yammeh: yes [18:21] DaSkreech: i am on gutsy does feisty tips apply also to gutsy?

[18:25] stdin: so i just "compiz --replace" and i can use effects without any probs on ati? [18:25] xenol: as long as the ati driver supports AIGLX, otherwise you need XGL [18:26] is there a program to convert windows cursors to linux cursors? [18:26] xenol: I mean, if the driver supports it, I don't know if one does [18:26] does anybody know how I may enable the Composite effects after an upgrade to gutsy? [18:26] stdin: well on gutsy u have xgl installed bydefault?

Because of the limitation of 2048 x 2048 for 3d i now configured screen 1 'below' screen2 this way they fit in the limits of 2048 x 2048 because 2*1280 next to eachother would not fit.

[18:48] Hi JohnFlux [18:48] DaSkreech: yo [18:48] xenol: no, just install xserver-xgl, then restart X [18:49] !sources [18:49] The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu [18:50] * nosrednaekim wishpers that the new ATI drivers are due outthe next day or so [18:51] Which? [18:51] OSS or the .... other ? [18:51] The other. [18:51] With composite supposedly. [18:51] anyone know how to configure compiz ? Where is it that you set up the shortcuts? [18:51] does anyone know of a website that lists all the file locations konqueror uses (e.g., cache, auto-complete, history)? [18:51] Hi. I ran an upgrade of Kubuntu from Feisty to Gutsy using the prescribed method for Kubuntu. At the end of the update process, at the part where obsolete packages are removed during the cleanup, the updater started hogging more and more memory, going beyond 90%. After a while, I noticed it gave the message "update-manager crashing..." and then X hung and I had to reboot. Gutsy came up fine, but adept still reports a new version being available. [18:51] the fglrx... 8.42 [18:52] Of course as far as ATI/Composite effects, I'll believe it when I see it. [18:52] Anyone know of a site that will help you set up your sources.list? [18:52] ubuntero_numero1: if you installed compizconfig-settings-manager, press Alt-F2 and put in: ccsm [18:52] ubuntero_numero1: in the Control center [18:52] !source-o-matic | the-erm [18:52] the-erm: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic [18:52] LeeJunFan: seems a review was posted by mistake on Phoronix, it all works :) [18:52] thanks stdin [18:53] gspr: its reporting that gutsy is an upgrade while you are running gutsy? [18:53] stdin, its just a blank window with prefenences and search [18:53] nosrednaekim: Yes [18:53] Is it really a good idea to recommend users to activate the -proposed repo before upgrading (the instructions in the announcement), won't it be activated after the upgrade too? [18:53] hm, adept updates... better for the gutsy upgrade I guess? [18:53] nosrednaekim: Probably because the installation hung in its very last percent, like I explained. [18:53] ubuntero_numero1: the keyboard shortcuts are in each module [18:54] I'm getting ugly white edges around menus. Any thoughts? [18:54] gspr: thats funny....can you just tell it to be quiet? [18:54] stdin, but there is nothing in that window [18:54] BudgetDedicated: that's the compiz-kde window decorator, it's a bug in compiz [18:54] nosrednaekim: No. I suspect it's reporting this because the upgrade never quite finished. I'd like to fix that [18:54] gspr: ah.. right :) well, can you use the tool to do it? [18:54] stdin, its says filter, search, preferences, etc - nothing of settings of options is there [18:55] ubuntero_numero1: make sure you installed compiz properly then [18:55] On 7-10 [18:55] stdin: no workaround for that ? [18:55] nosrednaekim:Hmm.. which tool? [18:55] stdin: I have it on my main panel too [18:55] compizconfig - ccsm [18:55] hiya genii! [18:55] BudgetDedicated: yeah, use emerald or aquamarine I guess [18:55] does anyone know of a website that lists all the file locations konqueror uses (e.g., cache, auto-complete, history)? [18:55] gspr: the upgrader... [18:56] nosrednaekim: What do you mean? I tried to run the upgrade again, but it just says I'm already at the latest version [18:56] can any one tell me for the love of pete why it is faster to download to an sd card then it is to laod to the HDD?

[19:41] DaSkreech: kk, thanks [19:41] there are quite a few [19:42] GuyFromHell: or just remove "kubuntu-default-settings" [19:42] this->http://ubuntu.c3sl.ufpr.br/releases/kubuntu/gutsy/kubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso [19:42] try another one [19:42] any ideas how much longer till an official kubuntu + kde 4 is released? [19:42] ScorpKing: So when eth0 etc is up then you dial uout it works as expected but if dhcp or so fails for ethX then ppp0 does not become default route either? [19:42] Jack3: about a year [19:42] stdin: would be a good idea - i am suprised that !!dolphin is only req. 8 times so far [19:42] a year? [19:42] what?! [19:42] Jack3: version 8.10 [19:42] wanttoprint: Hello ? [19:43] * genii hands ScorpKing a coffee and sips one himeself [19:43] files downloaded, while installing them the process has stopped, after 3-4 errors, it's stalled at 2%, configuring libstdc++6, what's the next step? what may happen if I just restart the computer? [19:43] stdin, but i have 50%!! [19:43] Jack3: I read that kde4 won't even be stable til sometime next year [19:43] Jack3: 8.10 [19:43] genii: yes [19:43] :( [19:43] * ScorpKing slide the cookies over to genii and sip his coffee... [19:43] geeze that sucks, but good luck doing that, i cant complain about free stuff [19:43] HorD: if you're using wget you can resume from another mirror [19:43] Jack3: unofficial .. well now we can talk [19:43] ardchoille: it will be stable until december, but not complete [19:44] ah, ok [19:44] emilsedgh: Until December ? it's going to go unabomber after that? [19:44] dolphin is only req. 8 times so far? what do you mean? [19:44] Jack3: it's because it will be releases too late to be in gutsy, and the version after gutsy (hardy) will be a long term support version. and kde4 will be far too new and buggy to be in a LTS [19:44] stdin, i will try... [19:44] Guys, how do i set dolphin as my default file manager? [19:45] patrick__: Ah ok hold on you have to install something [19:45] rivae, its default in gutsy [19:45] genii: so i think i'm gonna configure eth0:1 manually to solve the problem. ;) [19:45] yo [19:45] ScorpKing: I'm not sure how to prevent that. but perhaps statis ethX settings [19:45] rivae, you have an older version? [19:45] *static [19:45] ScorpKing: Yeah LOL [19:45] damn, just mounted my usb hd with diskmounter but i cant see any files [19:45] lee986321: no !dolphin. He means the bot [19:45] hi poison--! [19:45] oh [19:45] and i cant even use system thinguie cause it says theres some issue [19:45] DaSkreech: will not be stable until december? [19:45] DaSkreech what ? [19:45] sup Scorp [19:46] RivaeAerya: it should be there by default ... as default [19:46] genii: it's funny but i've seen a few guys here with the same problem but no solution. [19:46] stdin ah that makes sense, thanks [19:46] DaSkreech: yes, but i upgraded from feisty to the release candidate and didn't create a new user [19:46] but we should be seeing something unofficial soon, that will be pretty good? [19:46] emilsedgh: You said KDE4 will be stable until december.... [19:46] i have a question [19:46] im new [19:46] i open adept manager [19:46] How do I turn on Compiz in Kubuntu 7.10 ?? [19:47] RivaeAerya: Konqueror → Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory to dolphin [19:47] RivaeAerya: Why do you need a new user? [19:47] !compiz | Forssen85 [19:47] Forssen85: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [19:47] DaSkreech: it will not? at least its planned to be [19:47] and searched sun java 6 plugin [19:47] i download it [19:47] Can you have a firewall in ppp connection? Have tried guarddog in feisty, with dhcp client for ppp0, protocols allow, but everything stalls.. [19:47] and now it say its broken [19:47] how i get new [19:48] emilsedgh: Never mind. You botched the explanation :) [19:48] hi! I have the problem that the "upgrade tool" is not appearing after it's download - pressing finish after the updates leaves me with nothing happening.

[19:48] what is supposed to happen if you try to start the live system ? [19:48] how do i get kde 4? [19:48] I imagine it should go straight into kde [19:48] lee986321: see the topic [19:48] mine shows a login screen [19:48] without any users [19:49] and I can't seem to get anywhere [19:49] oelewapp1rke: that's .. not cool [19:49] if my laptop burns a Gutsy Gibbon, is that animal cruelty :P ? [19:49] genii: i might join a mailing list an give a looooong discription of the problem. hehe [19:49] and* [19:49] I ran the test cd integrity [19:49] oelewapp1rke: ok listen to me and don't do anything til I tell you [19:49] it said no errors detected [19:49] ScorpKing: I'm half-heartedly googling it right now [19:49] oelewapp1rke: try putting the user as ubuntu and pressing enter (no password), if that doesn't work then it seems like a bad burn [19:49] oelewapp1rke: if you press Alt+Ctrl+F1 it will drop you to a terminal that shoudl be logged in already [19:50] DaSkreech: it doesn't [19:50] alt+Ctrl+F7 gets you back the GUI [19:50] it shows a lot of text [19:50] but no shell [19:50] DaSkreech Thanks al lot I will try [19:50] oelewapp1rke: It doesn't ? [19:50] no [19:50] oelewapp1rke: Where did you get this Cd from? [19:50] lee986321: It's in the topic [19:50] kubuntu.org/download [19:50] some mirror in france [19:50] chx: Yes [19:51] perhaps I should try leaving it at the login screen for 5 minutes ? [19:51] genii: i know how to get past that for now so it's not serious. maybe i can use kmail again. :D thanks anyway... [19:51] something that needs to timeout [19:51] oelewapp1rke: More like 15 seconds [19:51] ScorpKing: np [19:51] i just installde new kubuntu and it can't load module restricted drivers, have anyone had the same problem? in rc1 that worked [19:52] DaSkreech: I have a core2 duo with sata disk [19:52] but it's not starting very fast at all [19:52] is it only me not able to connect to repositories servers? [19:52] kubuntu gutsy with 3.5.8 [19:52] a bit surprising [19:52] ScorpKing: I suspect because no default route gets set the "replacedefaultroute" option has nothing to act upon [19:52] Ben_Cs: depends what ones, most are being slapped about with a large trout at the moment [19:52] oelewapp1rke: optical media [19:52] oelewapp1rke: Always slow [19:53] genii: true [19:53] stdin: il,us,main they all show 27% and stuck [19:53] Ben_Cs: no everyone and their grandma is trying to get on the servers after a while they get fed up and go to lunch [19:53] ubunturos: Why? [19:54] ScorpKing: You can make some eth alias for one of the adapters and give it a static IP and default route [19:54] DaSkreech: KDE 3.5.8 was released two days ago, and it is in KUbuntu [19:54] ? [19:54] ubunturos: Yeah? So ? :) [19:54] ubunturos: we had it before it was "officially" released ;) [19:54] We have Beta 3 for KDe4 as well and that was announced last night [19:54] ScorpKing: But still leave the main to use dhclient [19:54] DaSkreech: everyone downloadin gutsy u meen? [19:54] genii: that's what i'm doing right now. :P [19:54] ubunturos: Isn't open source grand? [19:54] DaSkreech, stdin: umm,ok [19:54] DaSkreech: it is great :) [19:55] ScorpKing: Heh :) [19:55] * ubunturos is downloading the alternate CD [19:55] DaSkreech: Damn, and i built KDE last night from cvs. [19:56] stdin: when do u supppose the repos will be available? [19:56] Ben_Cs: hard to say [19:57] stdin: are they under maintanance or just being overloaded because of everyone getting gutsy? [19:57] * ScorpKing is away for now... [19:57] Updated/Fixed version of Adept is now in feisty-proposed, you should enable that repository before upgrading with adept [19:57] Ben_Cs: just being hit by the downloaders [19:57] stdin: i see === ndrea_ is now known as ndrea [19:58] Ben_Cs: A week safely [19:58] DaSkreech: any way I can get the console visible on startup [19:58] #ubuntu [19:58] why, after upgrading my system, does it say i have updates that need to be install? [19:58] I tried removing the quiet splash boot options [19:58] but it's not helping [19:58] XD [19:58] Can I upgrade a Feisty install to Gutsy with the regular CD? I don't feel like hammering the severs. [19:58] oelewapp1rke: Honestly it's supposed to do it I have no idea why yours is behaving badly [19:58] nicolai_: no [19:59] oelewapp1rkedid you check the md5sums ? [19:59] DaSkreech: I ran the "check validity of cd" stuff [19:59] I'm burning the cd under vista [19:59] no easy md5sum tool [19:59] are there any issues upgrading from feisty to gutsy? [19:59] I just installed gutsy where I used the irqpoll option when launching the live cd..this does not have any effect on the final installed version? Like the irqpoll causing it to choose some different parameters or something like that? [19:59] hmmm, what is the command to shutdown from the commandline? [19:59] Is is just my previously unmaintained computer, or is memory usage in Gutsy VERY much improved from Feisty? [19:59] shutdown [20:00] thill2708: your hibernation might stop working, at least mine did. [20:00] oelewapp1rke: You can get md5sum.exe [20:00] I have 100MB less RAM usage and 400MB less Swap, it's amazing. [20:00] stdin: is there a known gutsyissues page ? [20:00] thill2708: I bet there are others as well, check the Launchpad [20:00] stdin: How come? Isn't that supposed to work? [20:00] Lynoure: I just don't feel like trying to figure out how to bu my data right now :( [20:01] DaSkreech: not get, I don't think [20:01] hi you guys [20:01] never mind i figured it out [20:01] nicolai_: it still uses the network to install most packages [20:01] apt-get -f install [20:01] thill2708: bu? If that is short for backup, even one with keep is better than none, especially if you back up /etc, /home and dpkg --get-selections [20:01] i got a question ... well upgrading still doesn't work. can i simply replace feisty by gutsy in sources.list ?? [20:02] stdin: Fair enough. I guess I'll wait one or two days then. [20:02] shiva_: yes, it should work [20:02] ok thanks you guys [20:03] shiva_: No, don't know why, but my experience tells me it'll break your system badly. As said, no idea why, maybe it's better now. [20:03] Uh... [20:03] I have done it [20:03] it was seemless [20:03] Oh, good. [20:03] kaminix: only if you have extra repositories [20:03] I did it with an older release, and it fucked up hard. [20:03] Ahhh [20:03] !ohmy [20:03] Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. [20:03] Oh, sorry. [20:04] if you upgrade by changing sources.list, make sure you upgrade with "sudo aptitude --with-recommends dist-upgrade" [20:05] otherwise you'll get some strange mix of feisty and gutsy [20:05] hi [20:05] I can't get SCIM/Anthy working in Gutsy. :( [20:05] is there an md5 hash for the 7.10 release anywhere? [20:06] upgrade went somewhat OK, so i restarted, everything seems ok but KDE is redrawing like crazy on a lot of UI elements, anybody know what might be up? [20:06] Pasar: for the whole repos ? [20:06] Pasar: You have one on the CD if you mount it. [20:06] for the iso [20:06] kaminix: but there's no check be4 burning? [20:06] Pasar: from the place you got the ISO, look at the "MD5SUMS" file [20:07] stdin: thanx, that helped :) [20:07] Pasar: As stdin said you can dload one, but you can also do as I said an mount it before burning and check. :) [20:07] Gah. [20:07] Too slow. [20:08] has there been a better kickoff ported to kubuntu yet? [20:08] DaSkreech: md5sum is ae9b209fe4b9caf545fa2011631de797 which seems to be correct [20:08] I'm gonna try again [20:09] wow apt-get is really slow today :/ busy day ekh [20:10] joshjosh: A better kickoff? [20:10] anybody know what might be going on with my redrawing issue in KDE? [20:10] slaugh: Upgrade day the day A server becomes a man! [20:10] :] [20:10] everything is insanely slow [20:10] Why does Boinc start up automaticly! [20:11] jfro: remove compiz. [20:11] and xgl. [20:11] ok [20:11] thanks [20:11] also my cdrom setup seems to be borked [20:11] jfro: you can set how often the desktop is redrawn in ccms under general [20:12] DaSkreech, Yeah. the opensuse menu. there was one ported to Kubuntu, but it was pretty horrible. I was wondering if there was a better one. [20:12] well it's li keevery action/mouse move makes all the UI widgets draw and horribly slow [20:12] can see them all trying to draw or something [20:13] jfro: adjust the values within compizconfig-settings-manager (ccms) and see if it helps [20:13] don't have such a program [20:13] I can't see any optical decivces on my machine... how do I know that they're recognised? [20:14] are you using compiz-fusion for compositing? [20:14] i just upgraded, i wasn't === me__ is now known as Ked [20:14] i had it installed but wasn't using it [20:14] Azzco: How are you looking? [20:14] ,/media and k3b can't find anything either [20:15] oh [20:15] hmm [20:15] No popup if I put in any kind of CD either [20:15] Azzco: lshw ? [20:15] i got a pop up but perms denied regarding CDs === KennethP_ is now known as KennethP [20:16] DaSkreech: That's a really long list... [20:16] hi there [20:16] greets doc__ [20:17] Azzco: Pipe it into less [20:17] lshw | less [20:17] hmm, fixed that, now i can't eject CDs, mount them fine (as normal user) [20:17] only ivman can unmount [20:18] DaSkreech: Nope nothing abuot CDR drive... [20:18] Has anyone managed to upgrade kubuntu to 7.10 with adept? [20:19] files downloaded, while installing them the process has stopped, after 3-4 errors, it's stalled at 2%, configuring libstdc++6, what's the next step? what may happen if I just restart the computer? [20:19] Azzco: Does your BIOS see it? [20:19] I did it using adept [20:19] tuomas_: I have [20:19] !compiz [20:19] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [20:19] But that was weeks ago [20:19] DaSkreech: Yes I can boot from a live cd [20:19] hello, i want to upgrade a remote (desktop) kubuntu feisty to gutsy .. is it safe to use the "Network upgrade for Ubuntu servers" @ http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading or does adept do something specific for a kubuntu upgrade? [20:19] [21:19] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [20:19] DaSkreech: Well I never saw grub load but it said ISOLINUX something... [20:19] igniter: but the upgrade didn't finish with you too? [20:19] i think it's outdated :P [20:19] moofoo: the server upgrade should work nicely [20:20] hello all btw [20:20] DaSkreech: thank you.. i'll go for it then ;-) [20:20] Kachna: No it's not [20:20] tuomas_: all files downloaded, I got the errors while installing them [20:20] I think that the packages that ask for settings are causing these problems [20:20] * moofoo wants to see a xp->vista upgrade from a remote host that easily ;-) [20:20] igniter: same here [20:20] DaSkreech: strange, did dist-upgrade and compiz popped up [20:20] now I don't know what to do :) [20:20] Kachna: You had it installed before? [20:21] igniter: go to console and enter sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [20:21] DaSkreech: nope [20:21] tuomas_: ok ty [20:21] well i had it long ago,but removed... [20:21] hello [20:21] Kachna: apparently not enough :) [20:21] !hi [20:21] Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! [20:21] HOW can it be that a NEW version has more bugs + lesser functions then an old version? [20:22] this SO sucks [20:22] i just installed kubunti 7.10 but adept keeps saying there is a version upgrade [20:22] with purge param :P strange [20:22] im really angry :( [20:22] maybe i should downgrade to 7.04 [20:22] yaccin: kopete ? [20:22] igniter: did you get it working? [20:22] yes kopete [20:22] -__ [20:22] i mean how can it be? [20:22] hi [20:22] it worked perfectly in 7.04 [20:22] B-Minus: yes, it's a bug [20:22] and even in RC1 [20:22] yaccin: The smooth scrolling thing was apparently killing laptops [20:23] i have a serious problem [20:23] stdin: ok tnx [20:23] DaSand the MSN protocoll? [20:23] my AltGr key isn't working [20:23] ... [20:23] for me the graphical upgrade failed also on 7.04 [20:23] i run gutsy [20:23] tuomas_: one thing, the updater is still running, can't execute the command without closing the updater first, when trying to close the updater it warns about the system becoming unusable if the process is interrupted [20:23] yaccin: That's patched already [20:23] yaccin: the problem with kdelibs has been resolved [20:23] possibly becoming unusable [20:23] for kopete [20:23] DaSkreech: your ubuntu user login "works" [20:23] igniter: you have to close the updater but don't reboot yet! [20:23] as in it does not say password incorrect [20:23] ok [20:23] oelewapp1rke: On my live CD? [20:23] but it immediately gets back to the login screen === kilrae_ is now known as kilrae [20:23] oelewapp1rke: there is no password [20:23] on your live cd ? [20:23] yaccin: and it's not a kubuntu bug, actually, it's a KDE bug that the kubuntu guys kindly fixed for you [20:24] DaSkreech: yes it does something [20:24] oelewapp1rke: You have to setone up with sudo passwd ubuntu [20:24] ya pas des francais ici , [20:24] ? [20:24] !fr [20:24] and smooth scrolling never made problems on my laptop... [20:24] Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. [20:24] igniter: apt-get will probably also give you some warnings... [20:24] DaSkreech: hmmm so what should I do ? [20:24] and... how can it make problems when its an option? [20:24] I see the login screen [20:24] if it doesnt work, simply turn it off [20:24] the graphical login screen [20:24] -_- [20:24] oelewapp1rke: And you can't get to a console ? [20:24] and i dont have updates for kopete or anything else [20:25] just openoffice [20:25] DaSkreech: no [20:25] yes, I can't execute the command yet, some process still is blocking it [20:25] yaccin: It's an option that gets turned on and wakes up the CPU constantly [20:25] ctrl-alt-f1 shows me a disclaimer screen [20:25] no promp [20:25] I'm trying with ps -aux | grep adept [20:25] igniter: no, there is just the lock file [20:25] just the legal mumbo jumbo [20:25] DaSthen turn it off? ^^ [20:25] oelewapp1rke: alt+ctrl=f2 ? [20:25] to close whatever it's blocking [20:25] !aptfix [20:25] If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [20:25] +F2 ? [20:25] same ... [20:25] tuomas_: what's the file name? [20:25] and how do i get the kopete-msn-fix? [20:26] tuomas_: what's the program name? [20:26] yaccin: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [20:26] igniter: delete the file /var/lib/dpkg/lock [20:26] will it be in apt in a few days? [20:26] alt-F7 gets me back to the graphical login screen [20:26] oelewapp1rke: Kubuntu Live Cd? === Basti is now known as _basti [20:26] yes the desktop x86 cd [20:26] <_basti> hi! [20:26] ...So how am I supposed to burn a CD when ubuntu doesn't recognise my CD drive? [20:26] yaccin: I suspect [20:27] DaSit should be now... -_- [20:27] oelewapp1rke: Can You join #kubuntu-devel and report it ? [20:27] yaccin: The servers are being hammered [20:27] that means for devs as well [20:27] DaSkreech: you always find an excuse, dont you? :P [20:27] tuomas_: done, I've just executed the command === xipietotec_ is now known as xipietotec [20:28] igniter: apt-get dist-upgrade? [20:28] yaccin: Well if you would like to walk over to the servers and put htem on manually then that would be great :) otherwise it's not feasible. [20:28] did it start installing the packages? [20:28] wow only 8 hours left for my upgrade [20:28] yaccin: and you have a link to install it there if you like [20:28] DaSkreech: hmm walking could be a bit difficult for me ;= [20:28] ;) [20:28] <_basti> i'm just installing gutsy gibbon and want it to join with my /boot-partition which another linux is using, but it wants to format it. so I decided to make the grub-things later on. but now, at setup step 6 theres an option "install boot loader". should I uncheck it or leave as is? [20:28] oh another question.. i just realized that i have R installed from the official r-project.org repository and they do not provide gutsy packages yet.. anyone know if the upgrade feisty->gutsy still works? (R is at version 2.6 and gutsy only has 2.5.1 in it :-( ) [20:28] tuomas_: yes, it's asking me to execute apt-get -f install [20:29] it's been upgrading for about an hour and half already so this is just awesome [20:29] Azzco: sorry I misssed it does it see it in BIOS ? [20:29] igniter: I entered apt-get -f dist-upgrade [20:29] I can't get the 3d effects to work! [20:29] Kubuntu-fi [20:29] DaSkreech: In bios it's seen yes (No problem ;)) [20:29] moofoo: It will ignore it then [20:29] I installed Compiz === blendtux_ is now known as blendtux [20:29] ATTENTION EVERYONE UPGRADING TO KUBUNTU 7.10 -- STOP DOWNLOADING IMMEDIATELY soicandownloadfaster [20:30] proprietarysucks: just use bittorrent [20:30] ?

[20:31] DaSkreech: yes but maybe some dependent packages that are in the repository are updated and hence break things?! .. [20:31] Forssen85: whats the problem? [20:31] anyone else finding kopete crashes when attempting to log into msn? [20:31] moofoo: can't be if you have 2.6 installed already [20:31] sda ,1,2 sdb,1,2,3 sdc,1 and2 [20:32] adz21c: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [20:32] adz21c: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [20:32] ty [20:32] tuomas_: I'm going to execute apt-get -f dist-upgrade as you said, from what I see, this is the same as doing the upgrade from adept, right? [20:32] if you upgrade by changing sources.list, make sure you upgrade with "sudo aptitude --with-recommends dist-upgrade" [20:32] Azzco: You have three hard drives? === ubuntu is now known as ubuntu_ [20:32] otherwise you'll get some strange mix of feisty and gutsy === ubuntu_ is now known as ubuntu__ [20:32] DaSkreech: R consists of quite alot of packages (and thinks like "codetool" "cluster" etc) http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/feisty/ [20:32] DaSkreech: I was just asking myself the same thing.. [20:32] Azzco: Ha ha :) [20:33] DaSkreech: Might be my portable [20:33] Azzco: Those all look remarkably like hard drives [20:33] igniter: yep [20:33] but ok... i'll see what happens if i run the magic do-release-upgrade ;-) [20:33] tuomas_: great, thank you :) [20:33] DaSkreech: Going to check this out a bit, sounds really weird [20:34] why is Kubuntu much more unsupported in some things than Ubuntu? [20:34] Azzco: Yeah, Maybe they are ploting against you [20:34] Anyone using Netbeans? [20:34] But I really hope these "easy to user" things would much more reliable! [20:34] RivaeAerya: Cause developers are thrown at Ubuntu. There is one paid dev for Kubuntu [20:34] DaSkreech: Indeed, they'll undo my bed when I sleep =o [20:34] pierreth: not yet. :P how does it run under linux? [20:35] If the graphical installer isn't reliable then people should be guided to use apt-get [20:35] ScorpKing: I have just installed it [20:35] tuomas_: there is no such thing as the "default user" unless you have a mac :-( [20:35] DaSkreech: so does it have plusses for me to switch to Ubuntu instead of Kubuntu? [20:35] pierreth: it runs on java right? [20:35] RivaeAerya: Not too much. The main difference is the desktop environment [20:36] tuomas_: if the graphical upgrade fails people should use do-release-upgrade, not apt-get [20:36] DaSkreech: The only problem is, GNOME is very slow here [20:36] DaSkreech: oh, and, the printer support etc etc? [20:36] DaSkreech: I'm not talking about default user, I'm talking about creating an easy looking upgrade tool which will mess up peoples computers [20:36] Okay I really have no idea how to get my CD drive going.. [20:36] ScorpKing: Yes. But I don't have the Java tools.... [20:36] RivaeAerya: and in my opinion the support crew. the support here in #kubuntu is very friendly [20:36] and the "just works"? doesn't "just work" in Kubuntu [20:36] that's true :) [20:36] tuomas_: And I'm saying there is no ...standard user. Sorry wrong term [20:36] ScorpKing: I just have the Ruby tools [20:37] pierreth: i think you can download them from the netbeans website. [20:37] tuomas_: Everyone plays with the computer in slightly different ways that will make thigns break [20:37] ScorpKing: I want to do Ruby with it [20:37] !codec [20:37] 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 [20:37] ScorpKing: yes, but I don't find it [20:37] pierreth: let me look... [20:37] whats the command again to installt the codecs i need to play mp3? [20:37] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats < read [20:37] DaSkreech: apt-get dist-upgrade works and in my opinion isn't that much harder to use than adept [20:37] I've only changed my chassi and then ubuntu can't recognise my CD drive... [20:37] no i cant find it [20:37] RivaeAerya: Well they have huge teams working ona each of the specs where we have to make do :-( [20:37] is there a way to search for installed packages that are from 3rd party repositories? [20:38] ScorpKing: Netbeans looks cool on Unix [20:38] please tell me the command [20:38] RivaeAerya: still trying to figure out a way from the quandry [20:38] DaSkreech: what do you mean? Sorry, dutch is not my native language [20:38] tuomas_: for some people [20:38] err [20:38] english [20:38] and i just said my real language :P [20:38] ubuntu: so you can't find the link called "MP3" on that page, and follow it to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/MP3 ? [20:38] ubuntu: apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg [20:39] How do I get Compiz working in 7.10?? [20:39] DaSkreech: your cue ^ [20:39] !compiz | Forssen85 [20:39] Forssen85: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [20:39] ScorpKing: I guess Java comes by default, but not for the Ruby version [20:39] DaSkreech: too late :) [20:39] RivaeAerya: Well Kubuntu can't get as many things done so they say well it doesn't make sense to send more people cause they caon't get instant results but we can't get more projects done without more people [20:39] stdin: damn! [20:39] apt-get libxine-extracodecs isnt working [20:39] it failed [20:40] Azzco: i read it isnt working [20:40] what version [20:40] what now.... [20:40] Azzco: [20:40] DaSkreech: hmm... that's a pity, because i like using KDE more than GNOME, but if my computer really will "just work" in every way when i switch to GNOME, i might just take it. [20:40] ubuntu: what version ? [20:40] version 7.10 [20:40] pierreth: i won't know. i'm gonna use it for java programming only. i see the tools here - http://www.netbeans.info/downloads/index.php [20:40] RivaeAerya: What would you like to just work ? [20:40] gibbon === demetrio is now known as zebbers [20:40] ubuntu: ? [20:40] ubuntu: apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg [20:40] ty [20:40] ubuntu: read the Gutsy instructions then [20:41] DaSkreech: hardware support, Xorg, configuration [20:41] The first two KDE should pick up as well [20:41] it really does quite clearly state the package [20:41] which configuration [20:41] ScorpKing: see, it is not easy to find, I have the version 6 [20:42] RivaeAerya: Which configurations are you talking about? [20:42] pierreth: oh i see. maybe the java website? [20:42] ScorpKing: I don't need the ide again, just the java tools [20:42] !java [20:42] 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. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) or earlier. [20:42] ScorpKing: i will make a google search [20:43] ok [20:43] ScorpKing: Do you like Ruby? [20:43] DaSkreech: well, i'd guess "everything", but, i mean Xorg, hardware configuration, compiz fusion, automatic updates (adept is sometimes a pain to use, because it crashes all the time), and other features. [20:43] pierreth: never used it. [20:44] ScorpKing: Ok, I love Python but I want to learn Ruby [20:44] RivaeAerya: use adept_updater from the sys tray :-) [20:44] Ok, it could be kitchensync that caused the problems in the upgrade [20:44] pierreth: i know pascal and some asm. busy learning c++. [20:44] ScorpKing: I know well C++ [20:44] <|Cugel|> Trying to update -- but things seem to be very down. [20:45] DaSkreech: that one crashes too :P [20:45] ScorpKing: Netbeans does C++ too [20:45] DaSkreech: in fact, it crashed on me at the end of the system upgrade [20:45] amaroks moodbar wont is not showing up any moods! (testing with mp3 files) [20:45] tuomas_: seems to be working fine, thank you! [20:45] DaSkreech: its not working it get this message: [20:45] Package libxine1-ffmpeg is not available, but is referred to by another package. [20:45] This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or [20:45] is only available from another source [20:45] E: Package libxine1-ffmpeg has no installation candidate [20:46] pierreth: using kdevelop. ;) [20:46] !paste [20:46] pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel.

[20:46] Being nice to people isnt open source anymore its outsourced for proprietary sharks exclusive nowadays [20:46] RivaeAerya: well if it helps any the two peopel I know who upgraded to Gutsy on Ubuntu both had the update manager crash on them as well [20:46] how can i make a folder and all its contents readwrite with any user?

[20:48] i cant get the mp3 codecs i enabled all the the repos in adept manager and then i entered the commands in Konsole to the codecs but its not working [20:48] :( [20:49] how can i get a KDE color scheme from my PC to my laptop? [20:49] poison--: sudo chmod o+w -R /dir [20:49] (one that i creatyt by myself not downloaded) [20:49] DaSkreech: I think adept is mainly unstable when the package asks the user for some configuration [20:49] sweet [20:49] ty SK [20:49] np [20:50] !mp3 | Leopard [20:50] Leopard: 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 [20:50] tuomas_: Agreed [20:50] ubuntu: update first [20:51] RivaeAerya: how often? [20:51] DaSkreech: pretty often, since a few weeks ago [20:51] What's the command to open the GUI dist-updater? [20:51] is it possible to change the port that is audio out on the sound card? [20:51] RivaeAerya: Did you check the logs to see why it crashed ? [20:52] nzk: adept_manager --version-upgrade [20:52] Hi all. I'm trying to upgade to 7.10 folliwing these instructions: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading I enabled Recommended updates and let it get a new list of packages but Full Upgrade is ghosted and there is no Version Upgrade button. [20:53] By the way, how is it possible to view for example zip files in konqueror with zip:/file.zip [20:53] Personally I like it more than ark [20:53] Perseid, i think you need to update your feisty packages before switching to gutsy [20:53] DaSkreech: no, where are they? [20:53] Or is this fixed already in 7.10? [20:54] can someone recommend a fast mirror from germany? uk, se, de are super slow atm... (yeah massive dos at the moment but maybe there is one mirror that is not that stressed9 [20:54] kritzstapf: Yes, but I thought that was what the Full Upgrade button was supposed to do. [20:54] Perseid: try closing adept then press alt+F2 -> kdesu adept_manager --version-upgrade [20:54] moofoo: tried torrents? [20:54] Perseid, are there other update-buttons? [20:54] ScorpKing: for upgrade.. so torrent is not a real option [20:55] how can i change the default methode how ubuntu suspends? the normal suspend doesn't work, but pm-suspend --quirck-vga-post works [20:55] moofoo: lol. true [20:55] -c [20:55] hm fi seems atleast reasonable.. [20:55] still slow :( [20:55] ok rebooting after a gutsy update...wish me luck. brb in 5 mins hopefully ;) [20:56] !mp3 [20:56] 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 [20:56] DaSkreech: There's the button. Thanks. :) [20:56] !mp3 gutsy [20:56] Sorry, I don't know anything about mp3 gutsy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [20:56] but 730kb/s is at least better than 50kb/s ;-) [20:56] its not working [20:56] RivaeAerya: /var/log normally [20:56] ScorpKing: I think I found the answert here: http://dlc.sun.com/netbeans/download/6.0/milestones/latest/ [20:56] anyone know of a simple batch audio converter? I want to go from flac to mp3 === neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde [20:56] which codec to i need to install to have mp3 in GUTSY GIBBON please? [20:57] RivaeAerya: you can check in Ksystemlog as well [20:57] I tried that pages [20:57] ScorpKing: I need the full package [20:57] but it isnt helping me at all [20:57] pierreth: nice. looking... [20:57] ubuntu: do you have universe enabled ? [20:57] in adept ? [20:58] cpk1: for loop in a bash script ? :) [20:58] pierreth: there is a 172MB download there [20:58] ubuntu: yes [20:59] I have tons of albums I want to convert so either a simple to set up command line tool or a simple gui [20:59] ScorpKing: Yes, it is big, I am downloading it now [21:00] lol [21:00] hmmz [21:01] what codec do i need to install to have streaming mp3 support in amarok ? [21:01] ScorpKing: thank you [21:01] w32codecs doesnt excist anymore ? [21:01] pierreth: uhm... i didn't do much but you're welcome. ;-) [21:01] Am I doing something wrong or are the download mirrors getting hit hard because of the update?

[21:02] RivaeAerya: Will never happen === deva is now known as deva_ === deva_ is now known as deva__ [21:03] DaSkreech: KDE 4 as ubuntu default? [21:03] RivaeAerya: Never [21:03] B-Minus, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras [21:03] libxine-extracodecs isnt in my list :s [21:03] DaSkreech: and if everyone prefers it? [21:03] DaSkreech: and will GNOME keep up with kde 4? [21:03] B-Minus, that installs about all the restricted bits [21:03] RivaeAerya: Canonical does not prefer it so it will never happen [21:04] RivaeAerya: irrelevant. Ubuntu will not ship a KDE desktop ever [21:04] DaSkreech: i am locked out of adept and Konsole and i cant kill Any of them from KsysGuard :/ [21:04] If gnome is slow on your computer... I think it may be time to switch to fluxbox. or somthign rea light [21:04] ubuntu: define locked out [21:04] DaSkreech: and will GNOME keep up with kde 4? [21:04] B-Minus: you need enable multiverse first [21:04] Dr_willis: KDE runs fine [21:04] cant kill them cant get in [21:04] RivaeAerya: At some point yes [21:04] B-Minus: and then install the package [21:04] DaSkreech: but i heard they said if sometime they realize that kde is better enough, they will switch? [21:04] locked out i dont know how to define it differently [21:04] i has a gutsy now bye [21:04] ubuntu: won't open? [21:04] Personally, I think two separate distros for Gnome and KDE is a good idea. And it's not as if you can't install both if you want. [21:04] yes [21:04] DaSkreech: they will get the features of KDE 4? [21:04] emilsedgh: Not going to happen [21:04] hi [21:05] then Kubuntu should die and Gubuntu should born :D [21:05] RivaeAerya: I suspect Gnome at some pointwill be pressured to add something [21:05] DaSkreech: really? why? i think it will happen in 2-3 years [21:05] does anyone here have their kubuntu desktop printing to a REMOTE cups server? [21:05] But they are two very different projects so don't expect anything drastic [21:05] The people who like Gnome are going to like Gnome no matter what KDE does.

[21:27] DaSkreech: here http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/snapshot9.png [21:27] Ah. The actual downloading of files is going at 600K.

[21:29] i heard gutsy is going to come prepackaged with compiz-fusion... if so, will i have to uninstall beryl and emerald themes beforehand? [21:29] "Improved desktop, updated applications and increased usability features are just a few of the surprises with this latest release.

[21:30] i have the drivers loaded for it [21:30] and its a pci x16 [21:30] that's prob the best option, but i'm impatient and lazy... lol until i fail will i do a full clean install [21:30] !help [21:30] not the typical pci card [21:30] I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot.

[21:33] thx for the info everyone... gLuck all [21:33] DaSkreech: well, it hangs while downloading some files as part of "preparing the upgarde", it never reach the fetching completed as in the screenshot [21:34] gary_inNYC: a) compiz is mostly sprung from Gnome so they don't worry too much about KDE bugs and b) Kubuntu has one paid developer so there is much less capabilty to add frivilous stuff and c) KDE4 will come with his by default so we would put it in to take it back out [21:34] jbesiee: Servers are nbeing hammered [21:35] hi [21:35] ohh first time I did that sorry [21:35] DaSkreech: i guessed it :D any way to dowload it by hand or on others more available servers ?

[21:42] lee986321: Okay yeah it's saying there's like 33MB of video memory. Have you looked for a BIOS setting that might be related to that? [21:42] yaccin: Vista!

[21:42] yaccin: what sucks about 7.10? i'm planning to upgrade [21:42] Dr_willis: can' apt install .. servers are slooooow [21:42] well I figured out why KDE cannot print to remote ipp servers [21:42] * Dr_willis thinks this souns like wireless problems.. [21:43] it shouldnt be worse then RC1 in final release... [21:43] -_- [21:43] tzanger: wazzit? [21:43] in my PC? [21:43] when it invokes the 'ipp' command it gives a list of options but does not include them in quotes [21:43] the bios its self? [21:43] ipp expects options in quotes, and then the file to print last [21:43] or file(s) to print rather [21:43] lee986321: Yeah. The BIOS setup. Might have something to do with it [21:43] BlueDevil: msn doesnt work in kopete... so ive installed a patch now kopete doesnt work at all an konqueror crashes my whole KDE -_- [21:43] hmm just a sec Ill restart. [21:43] so this is something either deep-seated or configured wrong [21:43] and check and brb [21:43] lee986321: I have to grab some food so I'll be back in a while [21:44] hm on upgrade I get lots of error while packages are being installed... === nine01a is now known as nine01a|food [21:44] yaccin: you could try Mandriva 2008.. got very good reviews the last few days [21:44] * genii hands out coffee to Patience [21:44] vzduch: ill take a look on it :) [21:44] ok I'll make a note...were alos t o have a sever windsotrm hit [21:44] PCLinuxOS was also nice but had too much crap preinstalled [21:44] * ScorpKing pass genii more coffee to hand out... [21:44] ScorpKing: Yer hired! ;) [21:44] yaccin: not really.. my problem w/ PCLOS was a lack of packages [21:45] :D lol [21:45] does anyone here have remote IPP printing working with Kubuntu? [21:45] vzduch: explain.. ^^ [21:45] If MSN outright doesn't work in this version of kopete wouldn't they release a fix in short order? [21:45] i just installed kubuntu 7.10. whenever i try to connect to msn using kopete, kopete crashes. what can be done to make it behave? [21:45] Perseid: there is a "fix" -_- [21:45] tzanger: Ah ok [21:45] hi [21:45] yaccin: no Audacious, no normalize e.g. [21:46] vzduch: hmm i dont really need audacious [21:46] Man, no MSN is gonna suck. Are there other IM clients for MSN? [21:46] I'm in Adept Manager and trying to sort my search results by requested action. I click on "Requested," and it moves down and up like a button, but nothing actually happens. How to fix this? [21:46] tuomas_: updating finished, now what? restart? [21:46] vzduch: bt the had KvIRC preinstalled for example [21:46] -_- [21:46] my kopete client dies on msn at the moment [21:46] Perseid: use meebo.com so long... [21:47] oh wait... that page doesnt work with konqueror... so you have to install firefox [21:47] or you can just install amsn [21:47] amsn. Cool. [21:47] yaccin: who needs KVIrc? o0 [21:47] hi [21:47] hi [21:47] somebody should make a note about the kopete bug(s) in the topic :P [21:47] on my laptop adept_manager crashes as soon I click the first "Continue" button in the upgrader.. what can I do about it? [21:47] hi [21:47] Maybe I'll use that until there's an official new version. But surely that isn't serious enough to switch distros over is it? [21:47] vzduch: thats what i was asking myself ^^ [21:48] and thats why im not going to use PCLinuxOS [21:48] id love to use gentoo [21:48] mschiff: id run adept_manager in a konsole [21:48] but it simply sucks :D [21:48] and look at the messages in the console [21:48] whats the room for kde4 [21:48] ? [21:48] hi [21:48] why hasn't the kopete msn issue been adressed _before_ the gutsy release? [21:48] hi [21:48] see what it says when it dies then use the paste services to show us [21:48] ? [21:48] proog: well it worked before the release ;) [21:49] letalis: I already tried that.... and I tried stracing ist.. but I can not see anthing strange.. [21:49] proog: stupid, isnt it? ^^ [21:49] yaccin: yes, very :) [21:49] letalis: I will try again in a few minutes.. have to boot it [21:49] im so angry about it -_- [21:49] have you tried using apt-get? [21:49] and the "fix" made it even worse [21:49] yaccin: like I said ages ago, it's a KDE bug that the kubuntu devs kindly fixed for you [21:49] yaccin: the fix? [21:49] id love to smash someones face now xD [21:49] stdin: WHAT DID THEY FIX? [21:49] if it dies with apt-get then the problem wis with apt and not adept [21:49] -_- [21:50] yaccin: got complaints? #kubuntu-devel and report bugs on launchpad, otherwise nothing will be done [21:50] I don't get it. Someone on the kopete team is going to say "Oops, my bad." and in a few days we'll be able to update to the new version. Meanwhile we can use amsn. So how is this a huge deal? [21:50] proog: yeah there was a link where you could download a .deb and install it, but as i said it made everything worse for me [21:50] hi [21:50] stdin: i simply switch the ditro :P [21:50] sonic__: Sorry? [21:50] hi [21:50] yaccin: then do it [21:50] proog: it appeared right before the relelase [21:51] i just use pidgin when the kopete devs brainfart :D [21:51] I've just finished updating the distro by a konsole command (adept throw a few errors got stalled and had to cancel the updater), is it safe to restart now? [21:51] lol [21:51] I used apt-get -f dist-upgrade [21:51] DaSkreech: what do you mean? [21:51] !hi | wikipedia [21:51] wikipedia: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu!

[21:52] and so i see this distro release didn't go quite without problems :) [21:52] proog, compared to some of the other released ive seen.. :) its not too bad. [21:52] Any special instructions for upgrading from RC to final? I ask because in Adept Manager the 'Version Upgrade' button is enabled and yet the distribution upgrade process halts with "Your system is up to date." If that's the case, why is the "Version Upgrade" button still enabled in Adept Manager I wonder?

[22:03] if I press version upgrade or "Versions-Aktuallisierung" it says that I should run ... tool [22:04] DaSkreech: mount says that /dev/sda3 is already mounted or /home is busy [22:04] DaSkreech: and it's on /etc/fstab too [22:04] wikipedia: don't bring religion in here please :) [22:04] That's what it tells me: http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/snapshot8.png [22:04] DaSkreech, ok [22:04] know that linus is god, and Bill Gates is lucifer :D [22:05] (that was a joke, before anyone gets upset) [22:05] what's the most lightweight linux msn client? pidgin seems to bring lots of useless gnome stuff with it, and amsn brings useless tcl/tk stuff [22:05] << satanist [22:05] :P [22:05] wikipedia, There is no God. [22:05] DaSkreech: I just tried mount /dev/sda3 /home [22:05] khatahn: if it uses it, then it's not useless [22:05] khatahn: amsn [22:05] Daisuke_Laptop: So how does Steve Jobs fit in? :) [22:05] actually, never mind, that would probably be the web browser msn functionality on msn website [22:05] anger: type mount by itself [22:05] Does anyone have any idea about my Firefox issue? [22:06] anger: see if it's mounted somewhere else [22:06] DaSkreech: Did it, it's not mounted [22:06] ATnightAThome: ok [22:06] @DaSkreech: I think I did ... [22:06] but how do I .... [22:06] Perseid: i'm not quite sure [22:06] khatahn: meebo.com also has msn support :) [22:06] !mp3 [22:06] 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 [22:06] but doesnt work in konqueror... even if konqueror would work -_- [22:07] "close the adpet manager and launch the upgrade tool" [22:07] lsof /dev/sda3 [22:07] he's not as evil as gates, not as pious as torvalds... perhaps he's the equivalent of Plato? [22:07] ATnightAThome: when you click close on that button it shoudl start the tool for you [22:07] DaSkreech: empty [22:07] but this is offtopic, and this is a bad day to get into offtopic banter, with tons of new people :) [22:07] hi... has anybody the same problem, that "mute" in kmix (beneath the clock) does not work... the icon turns gray, but music still plays - also the volume control (if i singleclick the loudspeaker) has no effect [22:07] it doesn't [22:08] how can i define which mixer is controlled by kmix via the icon in the sys-tray [22:08] I'm about to upgrade to gusty. wish me luck. [22:08] i just like to manifest my thinking in string [22:08] in frestyle [22:08] and then i forget if i don't use [22:08] ubuntu_: hint: use console [22:08] anger: sudo mount /dev/sda3 /home says what? [22:09] DaSkreech: is it possible to download the final release now and then add the updates that hopefully com in the next day to the CD? [22:09] so i need to package my products so they survive automagically [22:09] Does anyone have a link explaining whats diffrent about the "enterprise" version of kontact that gutsy has? [22:09] yaccin: in theory yes [22:09] it's not for selling but just for my appreciation [22:09] DaSkreech: how? :d [22:09] ppl may criticize quality but for me good enough is ok [22:09] DaSkreech: /dev/sda3 already mounted or /home busy [22:09] yaccin: There are projects one is called reconstructor I think [22:10] and then if i feel something better then i do it [22:10] anger: are you in /home? [22:10] anywayz... i need to make my living soon [22:10] oh right of course you are [22:10] i know that [22:10] DaSkreech: thx :) [22:11] DaSkreech: mount /dev/sda3 /home/test/ doesn't work either [22:11] I've been trying this for hours [22:11] <[Al]> Even if I stop as much ACPI stuff as I can it still goes crappy when I plug it in. [22:11] DaSkreech: nor any other mountpoint [22:12] It's also not possible to do an upgrade with the desktop CD except for reinstalling everything [22:12] anger: only for that partition ? [22:12] ATnightAThome: You can use the alternate CD to upgrade [22:13] But it 'd take me a few hours to download it again ... [22:13] ATnightAThome: Are you up to date? [22:14] How do I know if I'm up to date ? [22:14] DaSkreech: / and swap worked ok but there are some problems with ntfs partition too [22:14] anger: I mean is sda3 the only one that won't mount to anywhere ? [22:14] anger: make a empty folder and mount it to there [22:15] DaSkreech: /dev/sda1 doesn't work either but don't know if that is because of ntfs [22:15] anger: same error? [22:15] DaSkreech: I tried to mount /dev/sda3 to different locations [22:15] DaSkreech: Pretty much the same error with /dev/sda1 [22:16] Busy? [22:16] OK. Reboot time. Wish me luck. :) [22:16] Hi, I just installed Kubuntu 7.10 and now my ethernet card won't work. I had 7.04 before and did a clean install. The card shows up in lspci. It just won't pick up an ip address [22:16] hi there. how can i make a new partition using kubuntu? [22:16] It was working 7.04 [22:16] DaSkreech: yep [22:17] !networking [22:17] Sorry, I don't know anything about networking - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [22:17] Isn't there a apt-get command [22:17] Omarian: sudo ifconfig -a [22:17] like distri-upgrade ? [22:17] ATnightAThome: apt-get dist-upgrade [22:18] DaSkreech: what do you need to know from the results? [22:18] why, after I just installed the gutsy cd I downloaded this morning, is adept-manager telling there is a version upgrade [22:18] Not fully [22:18] ? [22:18] DaSkreech: could this be because of some security thing? [22:18] stdin: what's the --install-recommends flag ? [22:18] I don't think that I had selinux before 7.10 [22:18] peterbuldge: known bug sorry working on it [22:18] hi all :) [22:19] anger: apparmour more likely [22:19] !hio [22:19] 0 aktuallisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktuallisiert [22:19] Sorry, I don't know anything about hio - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [22:19] !hi [22:19] Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! [22:19] so just to be clear I shouldn't do the upgrade? [22:19] peterbuldge: you can if you want it will tell you that you are up todate and die [22:19] i'm trying to install the new kubuntu from the cd, but it always breaks at 82% of installation. Can you help me please? [22:19] hi guys, does anybody know how I get rid of dolphin and can use konqueror as my filebrowser of choice? [22:19] DaSkreech: --with-recommends [22:20] I just burned a gutsy-alternate cd to upgrade a system which is not connected to internet. At boot from this cd I can't see any option to upgrade! Menu only mentions different Install and a few more options. how do I use this disk? [22:20] how do I stopit and keep it from nagging me me to do it again? [22:20] !dolphin | harald [22:20] harald: dolphin is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror → Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin. [22:20] awesome thx :-) [22:20] ATnightAThome: there we go you need --with-recommends as well [22:20] TheGentleman: not from boot do it from in KDE [22:21] DaSkreech: If I remove package apparmor I will find out, right? [22:21] it doesn't understand with-recommends [22:21] top returns a > 95% of CPU usage from ubiquity, but its paused on 82% [22:21] ok DaSkreech , thanks.... it is not much clear on Gutsy upgrade pages! [22:21] DaSkreech you might wish to add system_directory to that notice, it also shows up with dolphin as preferred app. Thx again. [22:22] DaSkreech: what info are you looking for in the sudo -ifconfig -a results [22:23] OK. I have no nvidia driver again after updating. [22:24] any suggestions why kde isn't starting after update to 7.10? [22:24] nothing happens, kdm starts i logon and thats it - no loading screen... === nine01a|food is now known as nine01a [22:25] I don't get it. [22:26] DaSkreech: you still there? [22:27] i have a strange effect going on - the fonts on my desktops are leaving some strange blocky shadow on there [22:29] i had sometimes the same problem what i did is rename the icons [22:29] nah, didn't work...

[22:31] interesting [22:31] okay [22:31] blendtux: it is frustrating [22:32] Vermux: or ctrl-insert [22:32] i am considering to upgrade to the new ubuntu but i have second thoughts since i dont want my system to die from it. So does anyone know a good program for making an image of the entire disk so i can restore it in case of failure [22:32] norton ghost, not sure if it works on linux though [22:32] anger: ctrl instert both for copy and paste? [22:32] Vermux: Only for paste. [22:33] blendtux: how long r u using it? [22:33] Vermux: no, shift-insert is for paste [22:33] ghost... i remember that [22:33] ill try that thanks [22:33] hope its free [22:33] i keep getting an error when trying to upgrade... [22:33] intex: so copy I do with the mouse only? [22:33] it says check my connection [22:33] Yeah. Unfortunately, there is no shortcut for that =( [22:33] Powercut [22:34] anyone else having a problem upgrading? [22:34] I did [22:34] Or am I should say [22:34] i am having an issue getting my ethernet card to work in 7.10. i did not upgrade though. did a fresh install [22:35] anger: so I copy with ctrl insert and paste with shift insert? [22:35] i think i did something wrong, i installed on kubuntu 7.10 trevino's repository for ubuntu 7.04 and the sistem asked for a distribution upgrade, now i'm upgrading but it is stuck [22:35] I do too. But, I have to format my computer anyway, so at the moment it doesn't bother me. [22:35] Vermux: try it yourself [22:35] someone knows a brazilian chanel of newbies? [22:35] i have the ISO [22:35] maybe i'll do a fresh install [22:36] When I go to start x with the nvidia driver enabled it says API mismatch that the driver version(100.14.19) doesn't match. This is just after upgrading to7.10 [22:36] robby: Might be a wise idea [22:37] Vermux: i am using it since redhat 5.1 orso [22:37] At least my updates are so corrupted by now [22:37] well the reason is simple i will help the cops [22:37] I'm gonna spam my help message again with hope someone can help :| [22:37] that is a long time, and yes, i guess that linux is a frustrating experience at times [22:37] I got an error "Could not install 'debconf'" When upgrading to gutsy, any idea what to do? Here's a link to the error: http://img144.imageshack.us/my.php?image=snapshot1ys9.png [22:37] Omarian: sudo ifconfig -a [22:38] DaSkreech: i tried that. do you need the results of a specific line? [22:38] Yammeh: sudo apt-get install debconf ? [22:38] Omarian: Can You pastebin it? [22:39] This is mid-upgrade, does it not matter?

[22:40] Vermux: some keys are reserved in some apps [22:40] Vermux: for same reason you can't use ctrl-v in console [22:40] fabio: #braznet [22:40] #braznet [22:40] ops sorry [22:40] Vermux: If you highlight it with the mouse it automatically copies it [22:40] fabio: click on it [22:41] Vermux: you paste with middle mouse button [22:41] there is nobody there [22:41] why there isn't a mirror to italy from kubuntu's download page [22:41] ? [22:41] its the most one near me [22:41] ;s [22:41] DaSkreech, when using sudo apt-get install debconf I get an error saying resource is temporarily unavailable. [22:41] angelus [22:41] Vermux: if you want windows like experience with kde, just close klipper in kicker and use the old proven cntr c for copy [22:42] sei ita? [22:42] and conrt v for paste [22:42] io l'ho scaricato tranquillamente da ubuntu.it [22:42] Angelus: change us to it in the file /etc/apt/sources.list [22:42] fabio: That's how you join that channel [22:42] DaSkreech: http://pastebin.com/m6107ae4b [22:42] Yammeh: Which resource? [22:42] DaSkreech: im talking about [22:42] vincenzo [22:43] the mirrors [22:43] i wonder if the repos are bogged still [22:43] on the WEBSITE [22:43] "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)" [22:43] :/ [22:43] !mirror | Angelus [22:43] Angelus: Kubuntu can be downloaded in various formats from here: http://kubuntu.org/download.php [22:43] Yammeh: do you have adept open? [22:43] ubuntu.it ? [22:43] !it [22:43] Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! [22:43] I'm guessing the upgrade is using it? [22:43] robby: Will be for like a week [22:43] Vermux: did you got my last comment [22:44] Yammeh: oh you are upgrading right now ? [22:44] DaSkreech: io non voluo parlare in italiano :P [22:44] thanks [22:44] Yes [22:44] blendtux: I ve never used any of these shorts. which one is the best and the most comfortable to use? [22:44] This error was during upgrade [22:44] Angelus: :) [22:44] Yammeh: Ah ok but it's still going on? [22:44] you can use the copy paste from each application [22:44] DaSkreech: i don't want to talk in italian, i wanna download it from an italian mirror cause italia is the nearest country to my ISLAND [22:44] Angelus: Wasn't meant for you [22:44] like you normaly do when you copy and paste in windows [22:44] No, it's came up Error, could not isntal debconf [22:44] corsica [22:44] fala portugues? [22:44] Upgrade has stopped [22:44] the funny thing is that klipper makes it more complicated [22:44] Angelus: use bittorrent [22:45] é latim também [22:45] !br [22:45] Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [22:45] blendtux: I use to do it with the mouse. now I want to start using shorts, because I m dealing with inux [22:45] Yammeh: close the upgrade then [22:45] blendtux: so what do u recommend to use? [22:45] any suggestions why i can't start kde after update to 7.10??? after kdm login nothing happens [22:45] Vermux: highlight the words with the mouse. They are automatically copied [22:45] ehm nevermind use the mouse and close klipper [22:45] then it behaves the same as under windows [22:45] Vermux: use middle mouse button to paste. try it out [22:46] hello [22:46] hey [22:46] blendtux: How does klipper make it harder ? [22:46] how can i run kde4? it doesnt appear in gdm's menu when i install it [22:46] I clicked close on that error and it's came up "Could not install '/var/cace/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.2-5ubuntu13_i386.deb [22:46] r0y4l: Check your logs ? [22:46] Think it's worth me starting the upgrade again? [22:46] because klipper remembers everything wich you highlight [22:46] Okay so after visiting the lands of closed source and burned my ISO I still can't boot... it gets stuck at ISOLINUX something... I tried booting an old LiveCD and the samething happend.. so it's not a faulty burn... Any help? [22:46] unf: read the topic ? [22:46] blendtux: So? You can go back and bump something up the list [22:47] blendtux: and it's X doing it not klipper [22:47] its an extra step [22:47] lol, so sorry [22:47] no that is klipper [22:47] úýÿß¿¼½¶õô¬¬* [22:47] DaSkreech: nice! [22:47] if you close klipper copy and paste works the same as on windows [22:47] Yammeh: Hmm Looks like hte package didn't download correctly yes resater the upgrade [22:47] DaSkreech: nothing.. xorg log is clean, no errors. X is working only kde doesn't work. i tried to remove .kde .kderc, without success [22:47] Azzco: So it's not a kernel error then? [22:48] I closed that down and it's continuing to upgrade.. there's no cancel button other than the X at the top of the upgrader [22:48] r0y4l: try ~./xsession-errors [22:48] DaSkreech: What would be a kernel error? not being able to boot LiveCDs? [22:48] with klipper you cant copy something from this channel and then highlight the url bar in firefox and paste the stuff from the channel, becuase you highlited the text in the url bar, its going to paste te same what was on the url bar DaSkreech [22:48] Azzco: yeah [22:48] DaSkreech: do u use that methode only to copy and paste? [22:48] kan you kuys kelp ke kleaze? [22:49] blendtux: Bah :-P [22:49] blendtux: Alt+ctrl+v and reselect it [22:49] Well I tried a ton of old liveCDs... Gentoo Knoppix, kubuntu6.06 [22:49] DaSkreech: how do i get that scroll effect in Konversation? [22:49] not that hard [22:49] i hate that behaviour, so thats the reason i never run kliper [22:49] I don't think that it's the same kernel on those =/ [22:49] Vermux: Mostly [22:49] DaSkreech: how do i get that scroll effect in Konversation? [22:49] ubuntu: What? [22:49] the extra step as i said DaSkreech, with klipper closed i dont have to :) [22:49] Azzco: might be your IDE controller chip [22:50] DaSkreech: what do you think of my sudo -ifconfig -a results? [22:50] Azzco: have you tried the latest 23 kernel yet? [22:50] blendtux: explain again the thing with kliper? why it is better then using the mouse? [22:50] Hi all. Question, adept doesn't shows me the point-and-drool interface for managing packages. I guess it's because my sources.list has been heavily modified? would someone please point me to a copy to the default feisty sources.list so I can use the gui cute upgrade process please? [22:50] 23 no... [22:50] blendtux: With klipper open I think if you highlight and press Ctrl+C then it gets in new klipboard which only gets pasted on ctrl+V so it still works the same as in Windows [22:50] blendtux: but when using konsole, isnt it better to use only the keyboard? [22:50] !sourceomatic | Lars_G [22:50] Lars_G: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic [22:51] benpicco: I've reseted the bios settings to default... [22:51] DaSkreech: how do i get that scroll effect in Konversation? === oslo is now known as oslo_pasl [22:51] slowing in here down yet? [22:51] Azzco: well I had a simmilar problem when I just bought my mainboard at the beginning of the year [22:51] <_michael> Hello I was wondering if there was a way to make KDE 4 apps to run normally under KDE 3.5.6 is that possible? [22:51] DaSkreech: you dont have to do cntrl +C for klipper to pick up the higlighted text [22:51] !easysource | Lars_G [22:51] Lars_G: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic [22:52] Azzco: it was the jmicron IDE controller chip on the P965 board - it was not supported by the kernels of these live cds at this point [22:52] Omarian: sudo dhclient [22:52] hi! after pressing "finish" in adept to launch the "distribution upgrade tool", absolutely nothing happens - any hint? [22:52] why Klipper is needed? [22:52] benpicco: The weird part is that I've allways been able to boot liveCDs and I'm quite sure that noone fiddled with any settings in bios [22:52] DaSkreech: clear you klipper history and try it out for yourself [22:52] well it could be handy [22:52] Vermux: [22:52] cause it has an history [22:52] does anybody have problems with kopete in gutsy when connecting with a msn account? to me it always crashes [22:52] ubuntu: What scroll effect? [22:53] text the way it scrolls [22:53] Azzco: oh, you *were* able to boot live cds on this machine? [22:53] and sounds [22:53] you can assign actions to the copied text Vermux [22:53] benpicco: yeah... untill I switched the case.. [22:53] blendtux: Well aware of that but if you press ctrl+C it works exactly like Windows [22:53] _michael: what do you mean by normally? [22:53] Thanks for all the sourceomatic suggestions [22:53] blendtux: Kliper is the tool that keeps in memory all previous typings in Konsole? [22:54] Azzco: oO what is the kernel saying when failing to boot? [22:54] Hi, I'm about to do a clean install and rather than write the data I need to save to a disk, I wondered if I could perhaps set aside a portion of the harddrive as a temporary storage. [22:54] for example when you copy and mail url you can assign it to open kmail [22:54] no Vermux [22:54] that is the bash history file [22:54] benpicco: I only get one line exchoed "ISOLINUX (somer number) (And stuff I can't remember...)" [22:54] or whatever you use [22:54] <_michael> nosrednaekim: I was hoping I could install maybe a few Qt 4 dependencies and not need to fully upgrade, then be able to run the apps as I would any other app in KDE 3.5.6 [22:54] blendtux: konsole [22:55] chuso: Known bug http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [22:55] ubuntu: What about it [22:55] Azzco: are textmode installers still working? [22:55] _michael: yup.... you can do that [22:55] blendtux: so the Kliper is only for text on the desktop? [22:55] Vermux: No that's bash [22:55] benpicco: I'm downloading the alternate installer right now but I really would want to know what's wrong in any case [22:55] _michael: just install kde4base and kde4base-dev and all the addon packages that you want [22:55] benpicco: yes [22:56] no Vermux clipper is the copy history for kde, so when you select something for copy it remembers [22:56] klipper [22:56] DaSkreech: blendtuxjust said that the bash is for the konsole [22:56] _michael: the kde4 versions of programs are in /usr/lib/kde4/bin === Vorian_ is now known as vorian [22:56] Azzco: well, the it would be important to know the error message [22:56] Vermux: yes I saw I'm catching up [22:56] blendtux: ok [22:56] Vermux: if you press alt+ctrl+V you can see a history of the things you copied [22:57] <_michael> nosrednaekim: Thanks, do you know roughly how much space the dependencies would take up and are they are accessable from the package archives or do I need to compile them? [22:57] DaSkreech: nice! [22:57] anyway my problem with klipper is, that on linux there are two seperate clipboard buffers, and this is for me anoying [22:57] hi, what 11# error message (or signal) in kde means? [22:57] DaSkreech: sudo dhclient results: http://pastebin.com/m6a0c8c04 [22:57] blendtux: klipper was made to try an unify those [22:57] if you look at the history you will see it's no where near easy [22:57] DaSkreech: how can I select text on kde without using the mouse? [22:58] _michael: if you are on fiesty, you have to enable the backport repo, in gutsy they are in universe, and I would estimate about a half gig at most [22:58] Omarian: your network card is eth0 right ? [22:58] so i close klipper Vermux, but for you first learn your way with linux, and kde, and then configure what you dont like, [22:58] DaSkreech: yes [22:58] Omarian: and how does it get an IP address ? [22:59] blendtux: how u select text without using the mouse on KDe? [22:59] Kopete crashed on Gutsy with error 11 [22:59] speart: same to me [22:59] <_michael> nosrednaekim: Thank you very much :) [22:59] speart: MSN ? [23:00] yeah [23:00] ehm, it depends in wich application you are [23:00] speart, chuso: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [23:00] but to be honest, i always use the mouse to select text [23:00] now i get Fatal server error: no virtual format found [23:00] blendtux: there is no unified methode for that? [23:00] DaSkreech: thanks a lot :) [23:00] i am not sure, maybe somebody else know's [23:00] blendtux: lets say for example in Konversation [23:00] Vermux: No many programs are older than KDE and KDE is 11 years odl [23:01] you can move the curser with your keyboard [23:01] thx DaSkreech [23:01] DaSkreech: where can i get the same alternating color pattern for my chat window background as the nick list has on the right? [23:02] is compiz installed with gutsy kubuntu by default? [23:02] Is /home/user/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml supposed to be owned by root or have I found a bug? [23:02] DaSkreech: what does your last comment related to? [23:02] Everytime i close dolphin it gives an error because of this [23:03] DaSkreech: where can i get the same alternating color pattern for my chat window background as the nick list has on the right? [23:03] nicolai_: did you just transfer your home DIR from another instal? [23:03] !compiz | tazgodx [23:03] DaSkreech: how do Iselect a text without using the mouse? [23:03] tazgodx: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [23:03] but Vermux, learn your way first with the mouse and your keyboard, learn how to work with linux in kde and on the terminal and then configure your system [23:03] tazgodx: in short, no [23:04] thanks [23:04] but start with the basic, Vermux [23:04] !compiz | Leopard [23:04] ah...an updated factoid [23:04] Leopard: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [23:04] but it is installed with ubuntu isn't it? [23:04] blendtux: agree, but isnt the basic is to know all the shortcuts to make it easy? [23:04] Vermux: there being a standard to do things [23:04] do you guys think it would be better to get the sun certified system administrator or the rhce [23:04] ubuntu: that can't be done right now [23:04] nosrednaekim: completely fresh install [23:04] nicolai_: not that I know of [23:05] DaSkreech: u r saying that there is no standard to select text? [23:05] there are a lot of shortcuts, Vermux, and every program has it own shortcuts aswell [23:05] DaSkreech: the machine is set retrieve ip via dhcp [23:05] tazgodx: to some extent [23:05] but if you want to know what shortcuts kde has already configured you can look in [23:06] blendtux: ok. do u know how to select text with the keybord in Konverwation? [23:06] droach: are you going to work with sun machines or redhat machines ? === ubuntu is now known as riew [23:06] Omarian: What's the IP address of the DHCP server ? [23:06] 10.220.0.1 [23:07] nicolai_: odd open a root doplin session (kdesudo d3lphin) right click on the .kde folder (you have to enable hidden files) and rightclick and select properites-> permissions [23:07] Omarian: fascinating address :) [23:07] Vermux: kcontrol ---> regional & Accessibillity ---> Keyboard Shortcuts [23:07] DaSkreech: how so? [23:08] Omarian: breaks a lot of rules but fine so be it [23:09] blendtux: u meant system settings keyboard and mouse settings? [23:09] nosrednaekim: so all folders and files in .kde should be user-owned? [23:09] take a look Vermux [23:09] nicolai_: Yeah pretty much [23:09] nicolai_: yeah.... and user writeable [23:09] you want to learn, learn by exploration [23:09] blendtux: And break stuff! [23:09] DaSkreech: what rules does it specifically break? [23:09] DaSkreech: just curious [23:09] blendtux: but there is no kcontrol [23:09] do this [23:09] 10.10 is private [23:10] alt + F2 [23:10] and then type in kcontrol [23:10] a 10.220 is a public address that can be given out to someone so this could cause conflicts [23:10] DaSkreech: the other 2 machines i have can connect fine though [23:10] no issues at all [23:11] alt + F2 <---- shortcut for the run command :) Vermux [23:11] why isn't GUtSy DVD out? WHYYYY? [23:11] Omarian: I'm not saying there are. just that in theory there could be in future [23:11] !adeptfix [23:11] If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [23:11] But as it is such fine lets try fix it [23:11] nosrednaekim: heh, now the bookmarks-tab in dolphin disappeared, but the error still pops up [23:11] blendtux: I knew that already [23:11] :) nice [23:11] DaSkreech: ok...:-) i will try migrating to a different ip in the future [23:11] Angelus: any of the DVD isoswill do fine they all have all the desktops on them [23:12] and is kcontrol opening already Vermux [23:12] nicolai_: lol.... are you still in that root session? [23:12] Vermux: Alt+space [23:12] Hello, I'm in the middle of a kubuntu upgrade to gutsy (via the update_manager), and during installation I have an error "Could not install 'debconf'" the note says "subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Segmentation fault), core dumped" -- how should I proceed from here? [23:12] nosrednaekim: nahh.. exited after I changed the permissions [23:12] Omarian: can you give the machine a static ip address and see if it can ping the 10.220.0.1 machine [23:13] nosrednaekim: They didn't last apparently :) [23:13] I want to set up a small partition that will (for the time being) remain independant from the rest of my installation. [23:13] nicolai_: odd.... erase your whole d3lphin config DIR [23:13] nicolai_: "rm -rf ~/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin" [23:13] ie, I wanna move the contents of /home onto it, then move them back later. [23:13] blendtux: I managed to get to that menue through system settings [23:13] nosrednaekim: 2 sec. I'll try changing it through console first. [23:14] systemsettings is kubuntu specifc [23:14] arent system settings and Kcontrol the same? [23:14] and it will come in kde4 though [23:14] no [23:15] SteamMachine: you can just copy all the contents of the home folder to another location then mount the new drive over the /home directory. [23:15] Brilliant, they killed Kopete. [23:15] DaSkreech: i am trying to do that and is telling me that gateway is invalid [23:15] SteamMachine: No need to move it back later [23:15] DaSkreech: let me see if i can fix that [23:15] Omarian: do you know what your gateway is? [23:15] blendtux: what dou mean kubuntu specific. I c that they have the same icons [23:16] DaSkreech: i do. i will put the ip down [23:16] Artimus: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 === DarkHack is now known as D[a]rkH[a]ck [23:16] Omarian: can you pastebin the output of route for me ? [23:16] there are some tools wich are made by the distrubution, like system settings if you use for example another distrubution like archlinux, you wont find system settings [23:16] * DaSkreech hands genii a pot of coffee [23:17] letalis: DaS [23:17] blendtux: ok, I c that Kcontrol is more comprehensive [23:17] system settings is not part (not yet) of kde Vermux [23:17] letalis: DaSkreech, how? [23:17] nosrednaekim: yep that worked. Now i just have to hope that " sudo chmod -R 773 '/home/user' " didn't bring new bugs :) [23:17] make a folder called backup or whatever you want to call it [23:17] DaSkreech: Thanks muchly :) [23:17] just so that you remember it [23:17] DaSkreech: Yeah, I've seen that. Just kind of sad that a last minute "fix" ends up breaking stuff. [23:17] nicolai_: heh [23:17] it cannot be in /home however [23:18] !helpersnack | DaSkreech [23:18] DaSkreech: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [23:18] Okay... [23:18] blendtux: but Kcontrol has more options. is it like the control panel in Win? [23:18] nosrednaekim: you too it was getting hard in here by meself [23:18] oke guys i am going to watch the movie 300, goodluck Vermux, [23:18] i would recomend it be in the root directory [23:18] ./backup [23:18] DaSkreech: haha... yeah... I bet... this is the WORST time to be doing support [23:18] its the kde control panel, [23:19] blendtux: thanks, enjoy [23:19] I'm suprised that no password promt comes up when I use kdesu. I like it, but it also makes me feel paranoid. =) [23:19] goodluck Vermux, stick around, and remember every first step was difficult [23:19] nicolai_: It has a memory like sudo now [23:19] anyway copy the entire contents of /home to /backup as root [23:19] how do i get an alternating color background as in the nicklist for the chat window in Konversation? [23:19] remember you learned how to walk, :) [23:19] blendtux: I will. thanks for the advice [23:19] nicolai_: Sonn it'll have inteligence and take over the world ;) [23:20] then mount the new drive as /home [23:20] riew: you dont [23:20] I can't spell today... [23:20] hi.. kubuntu 7.10 just hangs up on my computer :( i verified md5 hashes and did try safe mode. it does boot up even with some xWindow but then it gets out to text mode again and hangs up [23:20] Azzco: And worse .. all the passwords [23:20] blendtux: I learned how to walk 3 times in my life [23:20] Pasar: hard hang? [23:20] DaSkreech: no matter what ip address i put in gateway, it says ip is invalid [23:20] wow, why Vermux [23:21] and you can move everything back to where it was, you might have to reset user/group permissions with chown and chgrp afterwards though [23:21] pretending ppl are stupid [23:21] arggh. Now the bug is back, and the bookmarks tab is still missing. [23:21] blendtux: so I have the ability to learn this too. cast, and knee operations [23:21] no matter even if you have phd [23:21] Omarian: pastebin the output of route [23:21] if you can't be yourself [23:21] stupid [23:21] DaSkreech: well, it just doesnt continue to do anything it says something about some directory that doesnt exist. and stops at local dot something. i can "regularly" shutdown the system by the power button but that's it [23:21] letalis: cp -a [23:22] Pasar: no shell ? [23:22] yes :) you can Vermux, its not that hard [23:22] i think i have a huge problem, i did a version upgrade last night and lost power at some time. now it tells me i have packages to update, but won't update them. :( [23:22] blendtux: u c, it is like studies. if u dont implement what u r studying u will forget it. if u r not walking for long time u forget to walk [23:22] DaSkreech: maybe i could type sth but there's no prompt or anything [23:22] Pasar: do you know about virtual terminals ? [23:22] blendtux: talk later [23:23] DaSkreech: no [23:23] tazgodx: Why won't it update ? [23:23] Hm. I'm going to try this. if it doesn't work, I suppose it's not the end of the world. [23:23] Pasar: are you in Linux now ? [23:23] hi everyone [23:23] DaSkreech: no, XP [23:23] Pasar: ok well in Linux you can press alt+ctrl+F1 to get a terminal [23:23] does anyone know which servers are up-to-date (in order for me to upgrade to gutsy) ? [23:23] Pasar: alt+ctrl+f7 will get you back to GUI [23:24] first when i open adept_manager, i get an error right away, "could not find mime type application/octet-stream" [23:24] DaSkreech: will that do any good? i didnt even get the splash screen showing how my system loads [23:24] then i click full upgrade, apply changes, and i get an error, "There was an error commiting changes" [23:25] DaSkreech: just a very brief moment of a blank green desktop and mouse cursor [23:25] DaSkreech: route results http://pastebin.com/mda97ab7 [23:25] Pasar: can't kill to try "_" [23:25] i just did it for the 5th time, and it looks like its going again....thats weird [23:25] Omarian: your default gateway is blank === colin_ is now known as kernco [23:26] Omarian: try sudo route add default gw [23:26] DaSkreech: true.. but do u really think the system will stop loading just cuz i switch to X?? [23:26] DaSkreech: I know. it will not accept it via gui. keeps saying it is invalid even though i know it is not [23:26] DaSkreech: resume, not stop [23:26] plz join #########################linux [23:26] Pasar: no switch From X so you can figure out what's wrong [23:26] plz join #########################linux [23:27] wikipedia: do you have a support question ? [23:27] yes [23:27] DaSkreech: well, i am not in X when the system hangs, im on the console [23:27] what is kubuntu? [23:27] DaSkreech: I am getting message: SIOCADDRT: File exists. Should I look in /etc/hosts? [23:27] !kubuntu [23:27] Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE [23:28] ok i finally started the upgrade but i get "2007-10-19 00:26:19,965 ERROR pre-requists item 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/release-upgrader-dpkg/release-upgrader-dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu11.2_i386.udeb' is NOT trusted" in main.log, how comes? [23:28] hmm.. my dolphin issues just got an easy fix: back to konqueror. I guess I'm too tired to battle my laptop this late. [23:28] im installing with a fresh install and it's stuck a 82% because it's "scanning the mirror" [23:28] Omarian: strange [23:28] any ideas? [23:28] is the url down? [23:28] DaSkreech: isn't it? [23:28] ubuntu: Servers are being hammered [23:28] DaSkreech great :S [23:28] Omarian: whats the gateway address? [23:29] DaSkreech: i know ubuntu sucks for my graphics card, but apart from that i got feisty running fine. so why would kubuntu 7.10 not run??? [23:29] DaSkreech: i think it is not accepting any input. I am thinking of reinstalling [23:29] Pasar: I don't know you would need to check the logs === edulix_ is now known as Edulix [23:29] Omarian: can you ping 10.220.0.1 ? [23:29] DaSkreech: okay, i will try again and take notes of it :) thanx so far! [23:29] Pasar: ok [23:30] I've got a weird version of adept... how do I get the default one so that I can upgrade with it? [23:31] nicolai_: what kind of dolphin problem do you have [23:31] DaSkreech: [23:31] i found a screen shot of you on the web :O http://blog.nixternal.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/yakuake.png [23:31] Azzco: apt-get install it ? [23:32] I allready have adept installed, but not the one with veriosn-update and tabs for what should be installed... [23:32] DaSkreech: i cannot ping 10.220.0.1 [23:32] Omarian: What ip address did you give the network card ? [23:33] 10.220.100.8 [23:33] Angelus: Isn't Yakuake pretty? [23:33] ? [23:33] DaSkreech::that's part of the dhcp subnet [23:33] who's yakuake DaSkreech? :O [23:33] Azzco: what do you see when you go to adept -> manage repos ? [23:33] Angelus: The application in the picture [23:33] Just a list, no tabs at all [23:34] Omarian: what's then subnet address ? [23:34] DaSkreech: aint that a terminal? [23:34] Azzco: install software-properties-kde [23:34] Rumor has it that gusty gibbon is out... [23:34] Angelus: Yes named yakuake [23:34] DaSkreech: 255.255.0.0 [23:34] Thanks DaSkreech [23:34] purpleposeidon: You have talking to the topic haven't you?? [23:35] Omarian: strange indeed [23:35] Heya, Dr_Willis :D [23:35] hmm anybody know where kmail keeps its settings? I've copied over the old kmail folder but it doesn't show my imap account :-/ [23:35] can it ping the other machines? [23:35] DaSkreech: i will try that right now [23:35] I'd rather just keep everyhing where it is (-3 now), live and let live, if it aint broke don't fix it, [23:35] Anyone know how to perform an upgrade from CD? [23:35] DaSkreech: iĺl prove you wrong look at this screenshot alternating color in the chatwindow: [23:35] harald: in your ~/.kde folder [23:35] blendtux: The bookmarks tab is empty and everytime I close the program it gives an error about not being able to write to bookmarks.xml [23:35] purpleposeidon: hear hear! [23:36] all00: Same as before but have the CD in your sources [23:36] DaSkreech: So which version are you using? :) [23:36] DaSkreech: yes I copied .kde/share/apps/kmail but it doesn't get my imap settings, do you think kmail saves those somewhere else? :-/ [23:36] blendtux: For some reason the file keeps changing permissions to root [23:36] purpleposeidon: Gutsy [23:36] DaSkreech: I've never done it before :( I'm sorry [23:36] Hey, i've just got compiz-fusion working on kubuntu gutsy (may i say really easy to install compared to fiesty!) does anyone know of the best way to have it start up with kde - i asked the guys at #kde but nobody is around who knew how anyone have any ideas? [23:37] harald: i don't think so but it's what kmail thinks isn't it? [23:37] DaSkreech: tried the upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 -- got left with a partial install. I have now downloaded and burned both the LiveCD and the AlternateCD -- not sure how to perform a full upgrade (I get nervous around the partition configuration). Any ideas? [23:37] ok thx [23:37] !autostart | benbread [23:37] strange, so you already changed back the permissions, and there is no root proces writing to that directory nicolai_ [23:37] all00: No its from inside KDE [23:37] all00: no need to boot up from CD [23:38] do a lsof on that file nicolai_ [23:38] DaSkreech: the Package Updater will not run -- it got shafted when I tried that method earlier today [23:38] and see who is using that file nicolai_ [23:38] ciao [23:39] benbread: copy the fusion-icon icon to your desktop. then mv the icon to .kde/Autostart/ [23:39] my god, there are 1475 people in the ubuntu channel === lee__ is now known as leeadkins [23:39] bwayne: i don't think i have that - i'm invoking compiz using 'compiz --replace' [23:39] all00: shafted? [23:40] blendtux: just lsof '/home/user/etc.' ? [23:40] DaSkreech: FUBARed ;) screwed up :D [23:40] all00: It can't run? [23:40] the file wich dolphin says it cannot wirte to [23:40] DaSkreech: Correct -- it runs but nothing is clickable [23:40] DaSkreech: when the system hangs, i can get a console with alt/ctrl/f1, but not get back to X with alt/ctrl/f7 [23:40] use the keyboard? [23:41] Pasar: What are the X errors? [23:41] DaSkreech: the system stops at "Running local boot scripts (/etc/sc.local) [OK]" [23:41] Pasar: grep EE /var/log/X.log.0 [23:42] DaSkreech: there are no errors if i press alt+ctrl+f7, just no reaction [23:42] blendtux: lsof comes up empty. But it hasn't changed back to being annoying since I last changed permissions. [23:42] DaSkreech: somewhere up the screen i get "etc/default/locale: No such file or directory" [23:42] i'm still skeered to hit the upgrade button, not that i've ever had a bad experience.. it's ominous [23:42] !kopete [23:42] DaSkreech: eh, "grep: " and then that msg [23:42] Lunar_Lamp: MSN? [23:42] DaSkreech : here alternating colors in the background of Konversation: http://i21.tinypic.com/10y136s.gif [23:43] you lose DaSkreech [23:43] :P [23:43] DaSkreech: nope - new upgrade to gutsy and kopete is broken. I was using it for months in gutsy testing and it worked, lol [23:43] I was wondering if it was a known bug [23:44] oke nicolai_ but i have a movie to catch, 300 watching it in my bed so i am gone, ask me tommorow if your problem comes back nicolai_ [23:44] hallo [23:44] hi [23:44] Hallo All [23:44] Leopard: Mail riew and ask him how he did that :-) [23:44] Lunar_Lamp: Right do you use MSN ? [23:44] i am riew hehe DaSkreech [23:44] DaSkreech: in case anybody else asks: you also need to adapt ~/.kde/share/config :-) [23:44] DaSkreech: yes [23:44] file kmailrc [23:44] Leopard: oh then you have it solved already :) No need for help from me [23:45] I have a problem with my Nv card can anyone help me with it [23:45] i wanted to prove you wrong DaSkreech thats all [23:45] :) [23:45] blendtux: thanks. Will do :) [23:45] Ok, any ideas why my adept persists on showing only the "repo list" management interfaze? and why it wont let me get and use the "version upgrade" asistant? [23:45] Lunar_Lamp: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [23:46] Umm: What problem [23:46] harald: great :) [23:46] Has anyone managed to work around the segfault while upgrading debconf, on the road to gutsy?

I had Ubuntu installed on my laptop before and the wireless networking worked great. I just installed Kubuntu 7.10 and It's not recognizing the card. I don't even really know how to ad it. [23:53] john117 which card is it? [23:53] so, I got ubuntu installed, and I'm in the middle of trying to install kubuntu [23:53] How can i get in to the command line exiting x [23:53] Its an Atheros card that came in this Toshiba Satellite. [23:53] hi, i ran almost all the distribution upgrade procedure, i had to stop before it downloaded around 1.2GB of data ... how can i restart from that point on ... [23:53] frb-screen: sduo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop? [23:53] CTRL+ALT+BCKSPACE [23:53] now, when I go to a console, it's all messed, how do I force the framebuffer into a usable resolution? (messed) [23:54] Azzco: it's working on it, but I'm getting crappy download speeds [23:54] DaSkreech: k, I'll have to kill some things first [23:54] errr ... never mind ... i got it ... [23:54] I just want a working console right now [23:54] harald: no [23:54] DaSkreech: grep tells me: "/var/log/X.log.0: No such file or dir" [23:54] messed = text area is much larger than viewable area [23:54] Umm: Exiting X? [23:54] thanks DaSkreech [23:54] Umm: Alt+ctrl+F1 [23:54] harald, it is an Atheros card. Don't really know the exact model number of the card. [23:54] ok guys I've updated to kubuntu 7.10 [23:54] MrBallZ: just refollow the instructions [23:55] tons of new bugs! COOOOOL! [23:55] john117 atheros cards should be supported out of the box :-/ [23:55] anyone know? [23:55] MidMark, by what means ? [23:55] first I haven't reboot and halt in my kde menu [23:55] DaSkreech: yup, that's what i did ... but daaanngg 1.3GB ... that's too much [23:55] DaSkreech: any idea what this "release-upgrader-dpkg_1.14.5ubuntu11.2_i386.udeb' is NOT trusted" means when doing a upgrade? it looks a bit like https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144920 but it's not clear what to do.. [23:55] MrBallZ: :-) [23:55] harald: when i click on the network icon in the task tray, it says no device installed. (I've made sure that the hardware button for the network card is on) [23:55] DaSkreech: sorry i took so long. am doing a bunch of other stuff too. anyway, I cannot ping any other machines? [23:55] big thanx Daskreech i have found i site where i can reconfigure x so that my resolution will be normal but it says it works the best if i exit x [23:56] Umm, video card manufacturer? === lee__ is now known as lee986321 [23:56] then seems all sooo slow [23:56] terribly slow [23:56] so any hints on getting my console text to fit the viewable area? (it's an ATI FireGL 5200 Mobility with a 1600x1200 LCD) [23:56] DaSkreech: yeesh, screw this upgrade manager thing, I'm using a terminal [23:56] Omarian: what ip addresses do they have? [23:56] harald: and of coarse, there is the ever-present ATI 3d graphics problem. But i'll deal with that after i have internet connectivity. [23:56] 10.220.100.2 and .3 [23:56] lol internet [23:57] Umm: ah sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop [23:57] this is quite the storm were having here in WA [23:57] DaSkreech: any idea why there doesnt even seem to be an X logfil? [23:57] John117 do sudo modprobe ath-pci, then verify with sudo lsmod | grep ath, that should show about 3 modules [23:57] lee986321: yes, yes it is [23:57] heein the vally winds are at 45 [23:57] oke daskreech i can go to the commandline en reconfigure my x but how to i return to my x ?
