[00:41] I got a feeling my Synaptirs problem might be due to overloaded servers now... [00:41] NickPresta: but that costs precious Halo time when you can just have someone else solve it for you :P [00:42] * ScorpKing wonders how to run kommander... [00:42] harald, I just finished playing H3, actually :P [00:42] harald: yeah...but then what about their time? [00:42] I am assuming I can't update my repos because the servers are getting hit pretty hard. How do I set up a mirror in my repository list? [00:42] I never played that game ever :P [00:42] !burp [00:42] NickPresta: ok will do [00:43] just had to try lol [00:43] apollo2011, normally you would open adept, go to Manage Repositories, and then find the section where you can add a mirror. [00:43] I'm not sure if all the mirrors have been updated with Gutsy. I didn't want to take the chance so I used the official Canadian Mirror [00:43] how do you change the default browser in kubuntu? [00:43] ijust tried to force run a script [00:43] hey guys [00:44] and it sai something java something locked [00:44] hey, thunder-storm [00:44] grrr, my console is unusable, and I need to fix my Xserver [00:44] Omarian: go to your kde menu > system settings > default applications [00:44] frb, due to the Gutsy update? [00:44] i'm a user from germany and have a lot of problems with the upgrade procedure [00:44] NickPresta: fresh install, X works as vesa, but I want to use fglx and Xgl [00:44] harald: thanks, i knew i had seen it somewhere [00:45] thunder-storm, if you prefer, you can find german specific help in #kubuntu-de, although your English seems fine so we can assist you here if you like [00:45] thank you, i know that channel :-) [00:45] Yup, my own fault, couldn't find it on the list as there was no list. Lots of Noob mistakes today as I've just come over from Fedora. [00:45] frb: you need the restricted/proprietary drivers for your video card. if you're on gutsy, you can use the restricted manager in System Settings [00:46] i will give a hint @all: DON'T use adept to upgrade from feisty [00:46] thunder-storm, ah okay, just checking :) What seems to be the problem with the upgrade? [00:46] thunder-storm: why? [00:46] frb reboot in safe mod [00:46] Updated headers and bang, there it is. [00:46] thunder-storm > don't use adept for anything. [00:46] I managed to do it [00:46] i've installed kommander. how do i run it? [00:46] I simply switched vesa for fglrx in xorg.conf [00:46] if you want good for yourself:D [00:46] !Xgl [00:46] apollo2011: you could just prefix the repository urls, like this "deb http://be.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-updates main restricted" I'm in belgium(.be) our repositories didn't seem to be very busy I could download at about 450K/sec, my connection's topspeed :-) [00:46] I'm updating to Gutsy from Adept and it's going fine, albeit slow (not due to Adept though)... [00:46] the bot hates me [00:47] frb, the bot is gone :) [00:47] NickPresta > you have luck [00:47] i've do an upgrade according to the offical how-to on ubuntu.com [00:47] Just out of interest, does anyone else here type Dvorak? [00:47] blown away by the storm in washington? [00:47] frb: the bot is taking a nap. :P [00:47] thunder-storm: hm.. could it be because you're following the instructions for ubuntu and not kubuntu? [00:47] beazel, I am actually going to switch this weekend. I want to try it [00:47] adept is useless btw, that hurts me but this is true:( [00:47] it fails, adept crash after 5% of configuration [00:47] OK...adept finished the fetch, but the "full upgrade" button is greyed out. instructions said to click on that to do the upgrade [00:47] adept worked very well here, but my adept is from a fresh 7.10 install :-/ [00:48] jucato: oh no, i use the howto strictly for kubuntu [00:48] MetaMorfoziS: unfortunately for the upgrade to gutsy, adept makes more checks to ensure a proper upgrade than simply using apt-get [00:48] Took me about a month, I'm still bad. get KTouch! [00:48] but - thats not the main problem [00:48] harald: yeah thanks, thats what I was thinking I would have to do but wasn't sure how to exactly edit the urls. Although now I found in Adept how you can have it select a mirror from a list. (Lucky! I am lucky to get 150Kbps ;-P [00:48] thunder-storm: ok can you tell me what've you've done so far and what happened? [00:48] i will try it ;-) [00:48] ck42, run: kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" QUOTES ARE IMPORTANT [00:48] how can i change the default boot!?! i tried editing the line that says "default 0" to 5 and 6, but this didnt work [00:48] apollo2011: just open /etc/apt/sources.list as root with any editor [00:48] i have done a fresh blank install of 7.10 [00:48] it works fine - BUT... [00:49] but... ? [00:49] then i try to install a lot of new software from the original gutsy-repo's [00:49] later guys. thanks for your help [00:49] open office, firefox, java and so far [00:50] hello? how can i change the default boot os? [00:50] now i have hundreds of error-messages [00:50] harald, NickPresta: Looks like the easynews server in Virginia is pretty quck and browsing to it in Firefox shows they have gutsy so i'll try going with that... [00:50] btw, there's "kubuntu-restricted-extras" now to take care of most codecs/plugins needs (except w32codecs and DVD) [00:50] Shaezsche, I don't understand what you mean? Change which OS is the default (Windows, Kubuntu, etc?) or change the runlevel? [00:50] !grub | Shaezsche [00:50] thunder-storm: what kind of error messages? [00:50] similar: dpkg: Zu viele Fehler, stoppe hier... [00:50] sub[t]rnl: no bot [00:50] i want windows to be default NickPresta [00:50] dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:252: process_queue: Assertion `!queuelen' failed. [00:50] in grub [00:50] Jucato: kk [00:51] or rather, hammered [00:51] Aborted (core dumped) [00:51] hehe [00:51] Shaezsche, the file you must edit is /boot/grub/menu.lst. [00:51] and so far - WITH STANDARD-Software [00:51] oh bother [00:51] Shaezsche: you have to adapt /boot/grub/menu.lst [00:51] NickPresta i did that [00:51] NickPresta: that seems to have done the trick. appreciate that! [00:51] default 0 [00:51] changed to 5 and 6 [00:51] nothing happened [00:51] sudo apt-get -f install and sudo dpkg --configure -a dont work [00:52] the Xgl guide I found says NOT to use it on gutsy [00:52] * sub[t]rnl sniffs sadly [00:52] tutorial on adapting grub/menu/lst? [00:52] *cry* I want bling [00:52] now i have a crashed system with alot of errors and dont know, what i can do [00:52] i dont know what to edit [00:52] thunder-storm: weird.. I've never had trouble installing software on gutsy.... [00:52] frb: could you please ask in #ubuntu-effects what would be the proper procedure for that? [00:53] that is, i dont understand: on the same configuration on my notebook (same software & config, but with gnome) i have no problems [00:53] can you install from ubuntu iso and then apt-get kubuntu and end up with the same exact system as if you had installed from the kubuntu iso???? [00:53] !compiz [00:53] brandon no you'll have a lot of extra gnome files :P [00:53] brandon: you'll end up with ubuntu + kubuntu [00:53] i think, kubuntu is not already supported enough... [00:54] thunder-storm: the packages you are trying to install is the same for ubuntu, xubuntu, edubuntu, etc. [00:54] so it doesn't matter if you're running kubuntu [00:54] Jucato: that's fine. and it works vice-versa right? you can get to ubuntu via the kubuntu iso??? === dan_ is now known as Dagashi [00:54] thats correct, jucato [00:54] where is the url for downloading the iso torrent [00:54] thunder-storm I installed those exact same packages about 2 hours ago... works fine here is all I can say === Dagashi is now known as Cold_Dream [00:54] brandon: yep [00:54] how do i use compiz in gutsy ? [00:55] boubbin: um... could you try #ubuntu-effects [00:55] !help [00:55] thunder-storm: do you get any specific recurring errors? [00:55] http://i22.tinypic.com/hukepf.gif <--- ubuto loves me [00:55] hm - i'm work with kubuntu still dapper - and i have never seen this problems before [00:55] a lot of configuration errors, hundred's [00:56] all in one dpkg-errors [00:56] thunder-storm: could you maybe paste some of the error in the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org [00:56] tougher question: can you do a dist-upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10, putting i386 version over the amd64 version? [00:57] brandon I wouldn't do that: I'd do a fresh install or upgrade to 7.10_amd64 [00:57] harald: i will try it - but tomorrow, we have here now 2:00 AM and i must sleep - my day begins in a few hours [00:57] would it be advisable to `kill` my distribution upgrade process and adjust my sources.list to a new mirror (faster) and then start the distribution upgrade again? [00:58] thunder-storm: same here I'm in belgium, good night and good luck [00:58] thank you ;-) [00:58] the upgrade is at the 'fetching the upgrades' stage - nothing has been done to my system yet, except for the packages being downloaded, correct? [00:58] NickPresta: yes [00:58] woohoo! My upgrade has begun >:) [00:59] I might just kill this upgrade. The idea of waiting 1 day, 17 hours and 18 minutes is not desirable =P [00:59] heh you prefer a fresh install? [00:59] heheh....you would not be a good Gentoo candidate lol [00:59] NickPresta: shoulda beat the rush. :P [00:59] hey everyone [01:00] ck42, I think I'm an okay candidate - I waited almost a day to compile my kernel and such on my box downstairs :P [01:00] but it's a one-time deal only... in Gentoo... it's normal :) [01:00] not even recompiling glibc on my old pentium 100 running gentoo here takes me a day :p [01:00] !print [01:00] :P [01:00] well, I think I'm going to kill this upgrade. If anything goes wrong, I'm blaming you Jucato :) [01:00] NickPresta: A whole day!!?? you running that poor box on a 486 or something LOL [01:00] ck42, 233 ;) [01:00] ouch! [01:01] ck42: the 1 day +++ is just for downloading :) [01:01] Does anyone have any experience with LIRC im having problems configuring the hardware.conf file [01:01] the actual installation of the downloads takes minutes/hours [01:01] * seriekrock is away: Borta för tillfället. === seriekrock is now known as away [01:01] Jucato: well....the system is usable in the meantime though, right?

[01:02] yes [01:03] Is there a way to go to a terminal session without using the "ctrl+alt+f*" method? [01:03] slaugh: flash isnt 64 bit, you have to fix it, but i dont know how, there is a way, but dont know how [01:03] dorkface: um.. not that I know of. no [01:03] seriekrock: ok thanks [01:04] dorkface: I think there is a command..

[01:15] torrents_inbou: you can ask around how to edit your sources.list to include feisty-updates and feisty-proposed. that would be the equivalent of enabling "Recommended updates" and "Pre-release updates" using the GUI [01:15] * Jucato has to go [01:15] hold on restarting 2 drive 2 thathas 64 bit [01:15] Jucato: Thanks, will do [01:16] Jucato: Although I think I'll wait until tomorrow evening when the servers are less busy!

I don't have the option Version Update :( [01:19] I'm so glad I did the bulk of the upgrade when rc1 came out [01:19] imagine[laptop]: did you follow the instructions to the letter? [01:19] yup [01:20] imagine[laptop]: I imagine (no pun intended) that you enabled Recommended updates *and* Pre-release updates in Manage Repositories?

[01:30] ooooh - it gone trough :D [01:30] NickPresta: I think you can increase your Cache-limit /etc/apt/apt.conf to fix that [01:30] lee986321: are you currently upgrading or have adept running? [01:30] sub[t]rnl, I just saw that on Google too.

I removed it and replaced it with status-old. [01:33] I'm going to try the cache thing now [01:33] nite all [01:33] sub[t]rnl, ah, the cache limit appears to have fixed it :) [01:33] nice [01:34] what value did you use by the way? [01:34] just curious [01:34] APT::Cache-Limit "42123456"; [01:34] * sub[t]rnl nods [01:36] is it posible to install kubuntu using VMWARE from windows to another partition?

[01:39] Is it just me, or is everyone else gettings lots of lag while doing the upgrade? [01:40] what kind of luck are people having upgrading feisty to gusty? [01:40] My download is slow. That's it. [01:40] Yay. My (new) upgrade is downloading at ~130kbps! [01:41] I don't know why I'm getting a relatively slow download. [01:41] Could be my ISP, could be the Ubuntu servers. [01:41] eeeerrrrggg [01:42] I'm sitting stuck on file 26 [01:42] Jucato I checked with them and...they gave me a command line sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install firefox [01:43] well, I already have the first 1232 files downloaded. The rest of the file should be done in ~13 minutes. [01:43] ah, there it goes. ~7hrs left [01:43] lee986321: so they still have firefox for 64bit [01:43] heh. Don't feel bad. I left my upgrade running for 13 hours and it was only 60% done [01:43] kinda yes..but...iots tricky to get to [01:43] ja...no biggee. As long as the system is still usable while it's chugging away [01:44] lee986321: not really. just needed to Fetch Updates to refresh things [01:44] hmm thaat there in lies the issue [01:44] thh updates freez [01:44] hammered servers/mirrors...

[02:05] hello [02:06] <\etron> ScorpKing: okay, there's 3 standard ones: 0 is STDIN, 1 is STDOUT and 2 is STDERRR [02:06] ok === jack_wyt_ is now known as jack_wyt [02:06] <\etron> ScorpKing: that just means that STDIN is any input you choose, it could be a pipe. [02:07] hi, i'm trying to write to a file, i think it's protected. how to i go about to chmod it? [02:07] <\etron> ScorpKing: so, set it to 0, losetup --pass-fd=0 and echo the password in from a pipe. [02:07] \etron: so i could cat pw.txt | losetup -p=0 blabla... ? [02:07] <\etron> dpvnme: using chmod? [02:08] yes [02:08] it's the file: alsa-base [02:08] hi, just finished burning gutsy iso to cd, could i use this for offline update from feisty, or do i have to do a full wipe using this disc? [02:08] <\etron> dpvnme: yeah, thats the answer. Use chmod. [02:08] <\etron> dpvnme: chmod 755 or something. [02:08] this is what i put in: chmod -r [02:08] are there any howto pages for fixing power management on a laptop using kubuntu?

[02:08] gary_inNYC: full wipe using the live cd unless your making a seperate partition [02:08] <\etron> dpvnme: or the better way to set permissions is using the symbolic names, which actually mean something, like 'chmod u+rw ' [02:09] I had set it to suspend on lid close, but when I closed the lid, it just hung on a console with a blinking cursor, it never actually powered off, and wouldn't wake up [02:09] can someone please help me.. I cant get my integrated sound card to work. === robby is now known as soulwarp [02:09] thx sub [02:09] I got at "operation not permitted" [02:09] <\etron> dpvnme: -r is recursve... watch out with that one.

[02:10] pope: yes, you can update your ubuntu, then apt-get kubuntu-desktop [02:10] \etron: thanks. i'll try that. [02:10] \etron: now it makes sense. :D [02:11] <\etron> dpvnme: if you do an "ls -la" on the file, what sort of output do you get? [02:11] ah, i didn't explain clearly. Could i apt-get update-manager, and use it to update kubuntu, or will that download ubuntu-desktop too? [02:11] pope: the only thing is apt-get is quite busy today, expect some slow speeds [02:11] <\etron> ScorpKing: cool ;-) [02:11] how come i'm unable to install Gimp, Firefox, Synaptic, heck even Tuxmath is greyed out? [02:11] \etron: so i put this in the console: ls -la "filename" ? [02:12] hmmm....is the alternative cd iso as large as the live cd? maybe i'll just go that route [02:12] i can't install koffice either [02:12] yes it is roughly the same I believe, but would be much faster [02:12] \etron: this is what i got: -rw-r-r [02:12] than using apt-get [02:12] soulwarp: Fetch Updates first (or sudo apt-get update) [02:12] then try again [02:13] \etron: do i need to change to root? [02:14] alright. thnx 4 the help ^_^ i'm still relatively new to linux, but as always, the community has made the switch worth it. take care, gl w/ the updates everyone [02:14] \etron: :Dx(lots) it's working! [02:14] take care pope [02:14] * ScorpKing adds \etron to his hero list... [02:15] <\etron> dpvnme: yep, you will probably have to be root.

[02:17] see above [02:17] cptnspoon: what problems are you having? [02:17] i havn't had any this after noon [02:17] I'm assuming the server is just really busy, it took almost a minute to download the release notes [02:17] <\etron> ScorpKing: sweet dude ..

[02:18] Cheers Jucato, I might wait a day and if it's still bad I'll try some others [02:18] I can't find any sort of pre release updates or recommended updates in my source.list file. Where can I get a list so I can upgrade 7.04 -> 7.10? [02:19] pingveno: have you tried doing it through Adept [02:19] Yeah, that's where I went originally. [02:19] if you manually edit your sources.list, Pre-release = feisty-propsed and Recommended updates = feisty-updates [02:19] just follow the guide above with screenshots [02:21] Ah, that would be the problem. Neither is in there. [02:22] <\etron> later people. [02:22] Neither repository, that is. [02:23] pingveno: feisty-proposed wouldn't be by default. but feisty-updates should be there. why not try using the GUI to save you the trouble? [02:23] I'm doing a Fetch Updates in Adept. Should that do it? [02:24] Evening everyone. Anyone here able to assist with a new Gutsy resolution issue? [02:24] pingveno: Adept menu -> Manage Repositories first [02:24] pingveno: are you following the guide? it's a step by step procedure w/ pictures [02:25] ronin_: um... unless you give us a clue, we couldn't really say... [02:26] Yes, I believe so. http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade ? [02:26] yes [02:27] Okay. Its probably pretty basic actually. I'm using a mobility radeon x600 which, aftersome tweaking worked well enough in Fiesty. I just did a clean Gutsy Kubuntu install, and with the "ati" driver, my resolution was fine. [02:27] However,I need 3d, so I used the restricted driver manager and installed fglrx [02:27] now a konsole "fglrxinfo" shows the driver as correctly installed IE: not MESA [02:27] however, I can't seem to get above 640x480 [02:28] !xconfig [02:28] To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes [02:28] To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes [02:28] Is there any way of figuring out what's flooding my cups error log?

[02:34] Righty-o, it's going right now. [02:34] pingveno: that should solve the first problem of not having that Software Sources dialog box [02:35] Ah, there it goes. The dl was taking a while to start. [02:35] yeah, that's normal... hammered servers [02:36] Surprise, surprise === yam_ is now known as Yammeh [02:36] hmm, can i point us.archive.ubuntu.com to a different ip (using /etc/hosts) in order to apt-get firefox, etc.? [02:37] jtmoney: you can just switch servers through Adept Manager [02:38] in the Manage Repositories (Software Sources) dialog [02:38] I started a Full Upgrade in Adept, and then left the computer, came back about 30 minutes later...and Adept was at it's normal screen..no error message, no finished message, nothing [02:38] i started kdesu from a script and it ran fine. now it does nothing (like in not a thing) and i think it's because it's still authenticated. how can i get past that? [02:38] what happened? [02:38] mbishop: did you press 'Apply Updates'? [02:38] Jucato I had some odd problems when I upgraded to Fiesty, so some packages might not have gotten in. [02:39] ajagucki: Yeah, it was downloading, or so it seemed, then when I came back it was just...sitting [02:39] Minor filesystem corruption.

[03:12] ill have to wait for the up date spam to stop though lol [03:12] daoudi5_: no, sun-java stuff aren't installed by default [03:12] daoudi5_: what's installed by default is gcj only [03:13] Is there a recommended way to upgrade without breakage ? [03:13] Adept "froze" at about 3% when replacing the packages so I quit the upgrader and did a `sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade` and it appears to be working. Any forseeable problems? [03:13] !upgrade | sayers [03:13] sayers: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [03:13] jdong: Things break like that... [03:13] jdong, sayers: see the topic above [03:14] sayers: they are the best upgrade procedures.... you need to remove most 3rd party packages and repositories before attempting an upgrade [03:14] (the Kubuntu update procedure does that automatically) [03:14] Jucato: do you know if that's in the update-manager core logic? [03:14] Jucato: or an adept-specific feature? [03:15] jdong: that I don't know... [03:16] how do I upgrade to Gutsy [03:16] and should I back up anything first [03:16] !upgrade | navets [03:16] navets: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [03:16] navets: please see the link in the topic [03:16] navets, you should always backup sensitive data whenever doing something like this [03:17] NickPresta: please don't give out that link. it's not updated compared to the one in the topic [03:17] at least for kubuntu [03:17] Jucato, oh sorry about that. I'll be sure to use the topic link in the future. [03:18] no problem. I'll try to update it now though [03:18] so they'll be the same [03:18] how can i installed sun-java6-jdk? [03:20] !find sun-java6-jdk [03:20] Found: sun-java6-jdk [03:20] daoudi5_, in a terminal, type: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk [03:20] how to find it [03:20] whoa. dist-upgrade.py takes over 600mb physical RAM! === robby is now known as soulwarp [03:21] daoudi5_, you can use Konsole to install sun-java6-jdk. You can also use Adept Manager to search for the package === lee__ is now known as lee986321 [03:23] hmm i am going to have to stick my ps2 hdd back in to my ps2 lol [03:23] but befor i do..... [03:25] can some on im me so i am not off topic? [03:26] oh wait going to off topic === stu is now known as linux_stu [03:26] does kubuntu 7.10 come with compiz fusion by default? [03:28] it comeswith something [03:28] apt is updating extremely slow [03:28] is it because of the new release? [03:28] linux_stu may byou can help fer a sec [03:28] i can try lee986321 [03:29] how mux of the distros you know about? [03:29] eh much? [03:29] hey.. anyone having problems w/ knetworkmanager not automatically connecting to a wireless network? it sued to automatically connect to my home network [03:29] and have you seen any thing like this? [03:29] lee986321: some [03:29] lee986321: anything like what? [03:29] ill send an im [03:30] k [03:33] well i've had a sad 7.10 experience and now i'm back to debian. whenever i log into X it would i could type in any window and my computer would never properly shutdown it would just hang ... anyone else had these issues? [03:33] lontra: takes forever to boot into x [03:33] jtmoney: it would get into X here but i'd open konsole, for example, and press keys and nothing :( [03:34] lontra: 7.04 was fine for me though... with debian you will have to wait 8 years before a new version [03:34] i love ubuntu for the solid 6 month release cycle [03:34] jtmoney: or run debian testing [03:34] jtmoney: or debian unstable ... both viable options [03:34] i can't seem to upgrade because it can't connect [03:35] Just downloaded live kubuntu... Where do I go to add flash and Java to the live linux so I can try surfing with kubuntu? [03:35] JRlinux: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [03:36] JRlinux: kubuntu-restricted-extras [03:36] Wow, that easy, jtmoney ? [03:36] of course [03:37] lontra, kubuntu and ubuntu installs the same? [03:37] JRlinux: yeah but kubuntu is kde and ubuntu is gnome [03:37] Yes, that is why I downloaded kubuntu. I like kde [03:37] ditto [03:38] But admire all the card games gnome has. [03:38] JRlinux: i like kde much more than gnome ... i like the customizability [03:38] yeah, all the fucking nerds in my CS classes talk shit about kde [03:38] lontra, I see [03:38] language please jtmoney [03:38] jtmoney: they like gnome? [03:38] whoopsies [03:38] yeah, and xfce for one of them [03:38] JRlinux: KDE/Kubuntu has lots of card games too. they just don't install by default [03:38] jtmoney: blah ... give me QT or give me nothing [03:39] wow, i'm having some problems just getting gutsy to boot up all the way :-X [03:39] might be going back to feisty for a little bit [03:39] * Jucato gives lontra QuickTime [03:39] QuickTime ... oh no! [03:39] that's what QT is :D [03:39] * jtmoney gives lontra RealPlayer with all the "extras" [03:39] kubuntu can load and use wine easily? [03:39] yes [03:39] as easily as wine goes [03:39] JRlinux: yup, sudo apt-get install wine ;) [03:39] Jucato: that's what QT stands for? [03:40] lontra: yes [03:40] Jucato: really? [03:40] lontra: but I bet you meant Qt earlier :) [03:40] I dunno. I might have to convert from PClinuxOS. Thanks for the help! [03:40] Jucato: that's what i meant [03:40] lontra: :P [03:40] JRlinux: i have tried many distros... i can say that kubuntu is the most solid, polished distro [03:40] hey im having a serious problem i installed kubuntu on my new laptop and it finishes the install and when i try to run kubuntu i get this error, bcm43xx: error: microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load fail does anyone know what that mean [03:40] that's my opinion, though [03:41] * genii sips a beer [03:41] firmware for a wireless card? [03:41] JRlinux: yeah i'd recommend ... either kubuntu or opensuse for a kde distro. both top shelf distros [03:41] genii: hand me one please!!! :) [03:41] * Jucato agrees w/ lontra [03:41] Jucato:Geez, still here? ;) [03:41] 3 hours now :) [03:41] Fade2Blac: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [03:41] * genii hands Jucato a beer (Labatt 50) [03:41] of course i say that and i'm running debian ;P [03:42] any beer, as long as it's beer :) [03:42] just use feisty's instructions if you're using gutsy... some things may be different [03:42] lontra: you did say "for a kde distro" though. so that's excusable :P [03:42] Fade2Blac, yeah-- my laptop runs the broadcom wireless. I found it easy to install ndiswrapper, though, and it runs the wireless great. [03:42] Jucato: hey. Can I ask you a quick question? Well, two, if you have a minute. [03:42] sure sure [03:42] Anyone know why a memory card reader won't read my sony memory stick? [03:42] or mount it? [03:42] wastedfluid: you can try :) [03:42] though i do run kde on debian of course :D [03:43] (but it's not technically a kde-biased distro... but... offtopic) [03:43] :P :P [03:43] Jucato: Ok, thanks. First is, KNetworkManager no longer automatically connects to my home network. Any idea? Second, the volume keys on my laptop no longer work.. it shows a graphic of going from 0%, to 11% (with no noticeable volume increase or decrease), and then back to 0% if you go down. [03:43] sounds good :) [03:43] Hello [03:43] why do i notice everything crashing a little more now, eg, adept manager when i remove packages etc [03:43] wastedfluid: i have that same problem with kmilo too about the volume [03:43] if i mount a disk as root, can i add options so a user can unmount it without being root? [03:44] lontra: Okay, any idea where I could eventually look for a fix? [03:44] wastedfluid: I think the 2nd one is a known bug [03:44] the 1st one.. I have noooo idea.. :( [03:44] I think Kubuntu 7.10 is still a little unstable.. [03:44] wastedfluid: not sure ... but i think that Riddell is the original author of kmilo ;) [03:44] Ah. crap. What about s2disk not working? (s2disk: Could not stat the resume device file. Reason: No such file or directory) - but my /etc/uswsusp.conf has my swap UUID [03:45] so is anyone else getting the ocational crash of applications? [03:45] eh, my kopete crashes.. but that's known, too. [03:45] damn i need to do all of that for a driver that sucks [03:45] yea, fixed that [03:45] How did you fix that? [03:45] i wonder if inclusion of 3.5.8 was a bad idea? [03:45] Have a link? >:| [03:45] yes, it was [03:46] http://ubuntu.lnix.net/misc/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb [03:46] wastedfluid: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [03:46] 3.5.8 has been nothing but a pain in the ass for me >:| [03:46] whoops, language [03:46] wastedfluid: you meant butt i know [03:46] what's the adress for the directions of installing update from cd? [03:46] yeah, I did :P [03:46] thanks for the link to the .deb to fix this [03:46] pope: offline updating to gutsy? [03:47] yes, that one^_^ [03:47] Is there a reason why nvidia-settings is missing all the options and panels? [03:47] pope: what CD do you have? Live/Desktop CD or Alternate Install CD? [03:47] Alternate [03:48] compiz or beryl, which one should i choose? [03:48] pope: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrade bottom one. see if that works [03:48] compiz-fusion [03:48] wee; kde libs installing now. Anyone have an idea where I could possibly lok for a fix to kmilo ? [03:48] great, thank you ^_^ [03:48] NickPresta: btw, updated the GutsyUpgrades page [03:48] pope: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades sorry [03:48] !compiz [03:48] Jucato, awesome. I'm on Gutsy right now. I'm just trying to get everything working again [03:48] any tips for compiz under kde anyone would liek to share? [03:48] 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 [03:48] Hoondie, I suggest compiz-fusion [03:48] I don't wanna try compiz. [03:49] am i really missing that much? [03:49] Compiz-fusion isn't in 7.10?! [03:49] and yes, wastedfluid [03:49] I think it is.. [03:49] bacon333: whats the diff between the two? [03:49] copiz fusion is in gutsy [03:49] its fun but it makes your desktop pager screwy in kde [03:49] But I'm on a laptop. I'm not on a desktop.. I don't wanna heat up my laptop just minimizing windows [03:49] hmm [03:49] well, compiz-fusion is the new one [03:49] compiz-fusion = compiz + beryl remerged [03:49] Beryl and Compiz have been ditched [03:49] if i could get it working as flawlessly as kwin does id use it [03:49] yes [03:49] does it come with gutsy? [03:49] bacon333: not really ditched [03:49] well, it's re-emmerged [03:50] not updated anymore.. === thomas_ is now known as thill2708 [03:50] so what do I do un gutsy too activaet and start playing with compiz? [03:50] I'm not too sure Hoondie, you will have to check around [03:50] I don't have gutsy on this computer yet.. [03:50] wastedfluid: follow the link... [03:50] ok [03:50] compiz and beryl made a lovechild. that child is compiz fusion. [03:50] lol [03:50] didn't see the link for it, sorry [03:50] lol [03:50] NickPresta, my network install is awfully slow ...been 12 hrs , at 59% only :( .think my repos is the U at sherbrooke PQ [03:50] compiz fusion is HOT [03:51] is it buggy? [03:51] not really [03:51] it's pretty good [03:51] cool.. will install it :) [03:51] I've had it on my other machine for quite some time... doesn't like Blender too much though :( [03:51] its cool in gnome. i dislike it in kde, it doesnt play as nice as id like it to [03:51] yes [03:51] that's why it isn't in Kubuntu by default [03:52] I suggest just trying it first with compiz --replace before going and writing a script for it [03:52] if i don't like it, just restart x and it's gone (if i run it with compiz --replace) ? [03:53] id run kwin --replace first [03:53] er [03:53] itll save in your session if you leave it [03:53] what you do [03:53] is you install compiz-fusion === ubuntu is now known as seanix [03:53] and at first, just run it with compiz --replace [03:53] well, it's going to be a minute anyway. it's taking forever to download anythin from the repo's [03:53] however, if you like it, and you want it running off the get-go when you start your computer [03:53] You should write a script and link it with your startup options... [03:53] ok === _3v1n0_ is now known as Trevinho [03:53] yeah, the repos are slow today [03:54] eh, it's release day - I expected it [03:54] I had a nice download speed for kubuntu 7.10 from a sweden server today though... and I'm in Canada.. [03:54] just not *this* slow [03:54] I got it at about.. 150-250k/s [03:54] 700 kbps... never gotten over 500 kbps before :/ [03:54] I was just dying of boredom lol [03:54] ah [03:54] lol [03:54] Eh. 250kb/s = 250*8 = 2000kbps.. i was just bored out of my mind for 45 minutes lol [03:55] sorry, meant 700 kb/s [03:55] :D [03:55] oh. jesus. you lucky rascal! [03:55] yea [03:55] i'd be satisified w/ 700 [03:55] that's a what.. 15 minute download? [03:55] when I was going through the list, I only found 100 kbps.. [03:55] then I went to a swedish server, and boom, 700 kbps [03:55] never gotten over 500 kb/s before [03:56] I was really, lucky... and amazed to get 700 kb/s [03:56] haha.. yah, i have comcast.. pretty fast.. i've gotten... 1.2-1.3mb/s before, and held it [03:56] it's pretty fast [03:56] The swedish have the best internet.. === andre_ is now known as Hoondie [03:56] they get like, 20 mbits for about 15 bucks a month :/ [03:56] I think I read a report that Japanese have the fastest [03:56] ah [03:56] said they enjoy 60mbps, average, in Japan.. I might be wrong, though [03:56] hmm [03:56] dude, the US was like ranked #13.. behind some counry i've NEVER heard of before [03:57] lol [03:57] European countries seem to have good internet.. [03:57] :/ [03:57] Canada is really bad for internet.. [03:57] ya.. and i'm stuck paying $60/month for cable.. yuck. [03:57] bacon333: europe is also sleeping right now [03:57] I'm stuck paying 60/month for cable too, but I get a 20 gig cap [03:57] true :D [03:57] i want fios BAD [03:57] bacon333, where in Canada are you ? [03:58] Quebec [03:58] !compiz [03:58] 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 [03:58] I want FIOS bad, too.. i'm THREE miles outside of their range!! ack!! [03:58] FireTek: is n00b [03:58] lmfao [03:58] tazgodx is gay [03:58] lol [03:58] flame war... anyone? [03:59] lol [03:59] haha, i guess i can't run compiz.. Checking for Xgl: not present. [03:59] no be nice :P [03:59] he referred me to here for help with sound card [03:59] wasted [03:59] Can someone explain how I would configure a twinview setup in Gutsy? The upgrade seems to have bork'd my twinview configuration... === mark__ is now known as mph [03:59] wastedfluid: use AIGLX? [03:59] do you have your restricted drivers enabled? [03:59] i have no idea what AIGLX is. [03:59] i'm using a restricted driver for my video card [03:59] dunno [03:59] lol [03:59] else, it's awful [03:59] !aiglx [03:59] AIGLX is a project that aims to enable GL-accelerated effects on a standard desktop. Supported cards: Nvidia: GeForce3 or newer; ATI: Radeon 7000 through X800; Intel: i810 or newer. Howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/AIGLX. For older Nvidia or newer ATI cards see !xgl [03:59] yeah [03:59] i wasnt using Xgl and it works with the nvidia drivers [03:59] Only if Nvidia would release video card specs.. [03:59] i have an ATI.. but no idea [03:59] I hate Windows Vista [04:00] NickPresta: install nvidia-settings [04:00] NickPresta: google twinview simplyrender [04:00] and that'll handle the twinview [04:00] NickPresta: those instructions worked for me [04:00] gay [04:00] hmmm.. compiz doesn't seem to be working [04:00] did you install and then type in compiz --replace? [04:00] yea, that part worked.. [04:00] hmm [04:00] Hoondie: no window borders? [04:00] i have typed in ccsm and enabled stuff, that doesn't work [04:01] i have window borders [04:01] Hoondie: try alt+f2 kde-window-decorator --replace [04:01] yeah, i installed it and typed compiz --replace. [04:01] NickPresta: google twinview simplyrender [04:01] NickPresta: those instructions worked for me [04:01] so i have the different window borders [04:01] NickPresta: install nvidia-settings [04:01] but they are not wobbely etc [04:01] sorry fignew X decided to just restart... Anyways, I already have nvidia settings. I can't see any of the sections on the left side. It's just the "settings" panel with 4 or 5 options... [04:01] there's a problem with this http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/ [04:01] there's a problem with this http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/ [04:01] there's a problem with this http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/ [04:01] look the snapshot 6 [04:01] Hoondie: they're not wobbly by default [04:01] i enabled it in ccsm [04:02] NickPresta: what type of card? [04:02] kotelo: please don't repeat. we can read well [04:02] kotelo: and yes that's known already [04:02] If only my right mouse button worked... :( [04:02] 7900 GS. I've been using twinview for the last 10 months. This is directly related to the upgrade [04:02] lol [04:02] my right mouse button? man i thought i had it rough w/out being able to hibernate on a laptop [04:02] wel [04:02] well [04:02] heh, same here [04:03] can i run a 32bit distro on a 64bit cpu [04:03] any ideas on why it's not making my windows wobbley etc just changed the border? :( [04:03] I have to hold it down really hard, and squeeze it down for it to work... [04:03] Fade2Blac: yes [04:03] I have a crap mouse :D [04:03] yes, I run a 32bit on a 64bit cpu [04:03] NickPresta: are you running nvidia-glx-legacy? [04:03] my other computer is far better though... MX518, :D [04:03] 64bit sucks.. just no support [04:03] NickPresta: i'm having LOTS of problems with the default nvidia package with 7.10... i'm installing the latest from ati at the moment [04:03] no [04:03] new [04:03] err *ati [04:03] bacon333: you mean you hate this? - http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/8489/mydesktop2uq8.jpg [04:03] :P lol [04:03] ScorpKing: eww, why? [04:04] Jucato, and who is going to fix that problem? [04:04] awesome [04:04] :O [04:04] can't afford a proper version of vista? ;) [04:04] why would you want to do that. [04:04] Why. [04:04] what's that? [04:04] i can't see the command [04:04] xD [04:04] kotelo: Riddell when he wakes up [04:04] hahaha [04:04] xD [04:04] jtmoney: a friend of mine told me it's not possible. ;) [04:04] That's the ugliest thing I think I've ever seen in my entire life. [04:04] why would one want to make kde look like vista ... sad === rdaggett is now known as rdaggett_ [04:04] Nah, I rather use my KDE [04:04] lol [04:04] Can't wait for KDE 4... [04:04] if KDE4 is as big of a mess as 3.5.8.. count me out [04:05] i like dark colors but my menu is a kbfx kde logo :) [04:05] has anyone here tried the beta of kde? [04:05] NickPresta: also, nvidia is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [04:05] right? [04:05] * kde 4 [04:05] * Jucato reiterates KDE 4.0 != KDE 4 [04:05] i try. [04:05] fignew, yes... [04:05] wastedfluid: 3.5.8 may not be a mess ... just give it some time ... maybe it's packaging bugs on the kubuntu end [04:05] well [04:05] KDE 4 is supposedly far better and cleaner.. [04:05] NickPresta: try legacy [04:05] it's not 3.5.8 in general... just the stuff. kmilo not working, kopete bugs.. i guess it's not really "kde" [04:05] Which is the easiest way to upgrade from feisty using the instalation CD which i just download? [04:05] fignew, why would I try legacy for my 7900? [04:05] xfce ftw ^^ [04:05] bacon333: yes, but you have to clarify. KDE 4 isn't just KDE 4.0 [04:05] anyone able to use memory sticks on their comp? [04:06] i can [04:06] Jucato, and you know what is the command in the snapshot number 6? [04:06] hmm [04:06] KDE 4.0 will be the first major release for KDE 4 [04:06] you mean flash drives? [04:06] lontra: some new users find it easy to use linux if it looks like something that they are use to. like the Linux XP distro. [04:06] tell me please [04:06] xD [04:06] i got two in my system as we speak [04:06] letalis: yeah, but I mean specifically sony memory sticks [04:06] Windows is horribly designed... [04:06] yes [04:06] basic user as administrator.. [04:06] Vista is the best looking OS they came out with in awhile.. it's just severely flawed. [04:06] kotelo: kdesu "adept_manager --version-upgrade" [04:06] stupidest philosophy M$ has pulled out of their arse. [04:06] thanks [04:06] NickPresta: sorry, nvidia-glx instead of nvidia-glx-new [04:06] :) [04:06] * ScorpKing agree [04:06] thill2708: what kind of card reader are you using on it [04:06] ? [04:06] letalis: tifm [04:07] fignew, nvidia-glx is just a metapackage that selects either new or legacy [04:07] letalis: it's the five in one that came with my acer laptop [04:07] already did the google leg work. came up with zilch [04:07] NickPresta: no its not [04:07] Anyone knos how can I upgrade from feisty using the cd? [04:07] thill2708: I've never got my card read to work on my Acer. [04:07] this might help.. when i do a "compiz --replace" it says this "aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity" "no /usr/bin/metacity found, exiting" but isn't metacity the gnome window manager? [04:07] thill2708: your best bet is to see what dmesg comes up with [04:07] Hoondie: it is the gnome wm [04:07] wastedfluid: really? I got it all to work (installed the tifm modules) [04:07] The following packages will be REMOVED: nvidia-glx-new....The following NEW packages will be installed: nvidia-glx [04:08] Hoondie: yes and it goes to show how compiz is very much gnome-oriented :) [04:08] Nope. I've never got it to work. [04:08] letalis: Checked that too. Dmesg reports that a sony memory stick is in, and reports when I take it out. [04:08] sure it spews what appears to be useless info but itll be the place to start as far as figuring out whether the system sees it at all [04:08] letalis: other than that, nothing happens, I think [04:08] This pisses me off: [04:08] at least, nothing pops up or gets mounted I guess [04:08] http://vista.blorge.com/2007/04/27/vista-and-xp-get-virtual-3d-desktop-cube/ [04:08] it shoudl assign it a device [04:08] !ohmy | bacon333 [04:08] Jucato: how can i tell it to use kde? or would that error matter? [04:08] :P [04:08] my flashdrives are treated like scsi devices [04:08] [ [04:08] [ 7105.380000] tifm_core: MemoryStick card detected in socket 0:2 [04:08] [ 7105.488000] mspblk0: p1 [04:09] urgh [04:09] Hoondie: dunno. not a compiz kind of guy [04:09] that came out wrong, sorry [04:09] bacon333: why do you care? [04:09] bacon333: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. [04:09] but yeah, that's what dmesg gives me [04:09] sorry [04:09] what happened to ubotu? [04:09] KDE4 are nice, but. . . are to slow now. I compille it. For example if you aprox. the mouse on a "plasmoid", you'll see a little flick. [04:09] pisses = family allowable language [04:09] hmm [04:09] :D [04:09] true.. [04:09] it depends on your family. [04:09] lol [04:09] lol [04:09] Hoondie: compiz doesn't use metacity it uses compiz [04:09] the word 'crap' doesn't fly in my family.. [04:09] Hoondie: compiz is the window manager [04:09] back when I lived with my mother.. that word would get me slapped.. haha. [04:09] 'shit' does, however.. [04:09] i will use kde4 in the version 4.5 [04:09] :B [04:10] thill2708: pm me ill help you with this [04:10] kotelo: hm.. that would be in 2009+ hopefully? [04:10] awesome [04:10] hahahaha [04:10] xDDD [04:10] im thinking of putting linux on an acer myself when i get some more money. [04:10] * ScorpKing slaps bacon333 before someone kicks him... [04:10] ... [04:10] :D [04:10] uhuh [04:10] Are there actually moderators here? [04:10] hehe [04:10] bacon333: yes [04:11] yes [04:11] I see.. [04:11] so please, tone down the language. thanks [04:11] yup. [04:11] *flees* [04:11] lol [04:11] bleh... compiz fusion appears to be broken :\ [04:11] there's a few.. you never know who it is, until they oper up.. and you're gone. lol [04:11] kotelo: Yeah, I think in version 4.2 or more high are batter. [04:11] nite all [04:11] heh, I'm used to Counter-strike.. [04:11] nite BluesKaj [04:11] You should see the language in there... it gets 'heated' sometimes :D [04:11] from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#head-a38c22ffc91074bf5a9e035fb239b67cc6402ffd ... "At next boot, Ubuntu will load an old version of fglrx, so you have to blacklist it by changing /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common to include DISABLED_MODULES="somemodule2 fglrx" where somemodule2 is the old contents of that line." how do i determine somemodule2 exactly? [04:12] blah, I can't wait for a s2disk fix [04:12] n1lo, exactly :) [04:13] anyone? =( [04:13] bacon333: true. in our place, it isnt "sometimes", it's the norm... but this isnt' CS :P [04:13] any reports pouring for the gutsy in this channel [04:13] anyone have an idea when they might up to uswsusp 0.7 instead of the 0.6? [04:13] I wonder if it would be possible to get compiz-fusion to run on a pentium 3... [04:13] with 400 mhz [04:13] and 256 megs of ram [04:14] bacon333: you need more video card power than processor power [04:14] bacon333: nope [04:14] hmm [04:14] I only have an 8 meg graphics card :( [04:14] people say gutsy is slow [04:14] then nope [04:14] people say elvis is still alive too :) [04:14] you need lots of graphics card. you also need lots of processor power for getting reasonable performance even without compiz fusion [04:14] ubuntu: what's your question? [04:14] kotelo: The speedup of KDE4 are direct connect with Qt4 lib. . . [04:15] n1lo: that may be true. but we don't have metrics yet to actually lean on that as absolutely 100% infallibly true [04:15] D: [04:16] Yeah! [04:16] how can i upgrade using adept getting the packages from cd? [04:16] Lontra: I need to have the confidence to install gutsy after learning in this channel [04:16] MurielGodoi: what kind of CD do you have? Desktop CD or Alternate Install CD? [04:16] bacon333: the best i managed on a box that size was xfce4 with some lightweight apps. [04:17] desktop [04:17] really? [04:17] MurielGodoi: you can't use that [04:17] I'm on a pentium 3 right now.. [04:17] 450 mhz, 256 megs of ram, running Kubuntu [04:17] Lontra: Right now I am on live CD! Last week I started with fiesty, but faced many problems and lost windows also [04:17] Runs very nicely :D [04:17] Jucato: outch... which cd should it be? [04:17] ALternate Install CD [04:17] !upgrade [04:17] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [04:17] bacon333: 444Mhz 256MB RAM. it seems slow with kde === bennett is now known as snowdonkey [04:18] Not to me :/ [04:18] Seems responsive.. [04:18] lol [04:18] Well, more responsive than when I had Windows on it :/ [04:18] anyone familiar with compiz fusion's blacklisting of the intel i965 chipset? [04:18] "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" [04:18] Can i save downloads if I copy all packages to /var/cache/apt? [04:18] bacon333: yeah it will be. hehe [04:18] Then again, Windows didn't respond much :D [04:18] can someone help me with "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" [04:18] Daisuke_Laptop: I had someone explain it to me yesterday.... [04:19] i see [04:19] Hi. What do I need to add to my sources.list to download packages "w32codecs" and "libxine-extracodecs". Enabling all repositories in Adept didn't work. [04:19] MurielGodoi: google for apt-move howto for that [04:19] Daisuke_Laptop: not saying I understand perfectly :) [04:19] snowdonkey: install kubuntu-restricted-extras [04:19] snowdonkey: google for "medibuntu" [04:19] jdong: there was something like SKIP_CHECK in ~/.config/compiz/compiz-manager [04:19] snowdonkey: that repository contains w32codecs and libdvdcss2 [04:19] "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" help me [04:19] jdong: isn't that include in the kubuntu-restricted-extras metapackage? [04:20] jimmyww_: that is not an error [04:20] !patience | jimmyww_ [04:20] jimmyww_: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped. Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [04:20] lontra: no, it is not [04:20] lontra, jdong: Great, thanks. [04:20] lontra: w32codecsi s illegal for Ubuntu to redistribute and is not in multiverse [04:20] MurielGodoi: if you just copy the packages there it won't work. if you run apt-move after you've copied it and create a local repo it will. :) [04:20] !helpersnack | jdong [04:20] jdong: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [04:20] jdong, how do i fix then [04:20] Jucato: lol nice factoid :D [04:20] jdong: haha never saw it before? :) [04:20] Jucato: I'll try to help the KDE4, with testing and some "K"ode! [04:20] welcome back ubotu! [04:21] jimmyww_: what's wrong? That error is normal on machiens without a floppy drive [04:21] Jucato: first time [04:21] ScorpKing: nice... thanks for the tip :) [04:21] Kool desktop environment.. [04:21] n1lo: that's the spirit! :) [04:21] jdong, so how do i run the live cd [04:22] jimmyww_: can you describe the symptoms of what's wrong? [04:22] why do I have this feeling doing any updates to k/ubuntu is going to take awhile today... [04:22] I've figured out a perfect linux formula... 2 substances... Linux + Coffee = win.. true story [04:22] MurielGodoi: it's saves me tons of work. copy odd packages to /var/cache/apt/archives and run apt-move. it will sort everything out and make your day a bit brighter. :D [04:22] bacon333: you would make genii proud :) [04:22] genii? [04:22] jdong, i use the live cd of any distro and when it runs [04:22] :( [04:23] bacon333: he's one of the ops around here, he's a coffee fanatic :) [04:23] ah [04:23] jdong, after i choose start or live cd [04:23] coffee rules :D [04:23] * ScorpKing sips coffee and pass genii another beer... === ECS is now known as cj_sze27 [04:23] yes, yes it does [04:23] can I copy the entire gutsy packages to there and run apt-get dist? [04:23] jdong, it loads normal then i get "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" [04:23] after runs apt-move :) [04:23] jimmyww_: does that cause a complete lockup of the live cd? [04:24] or does it continue loading? [04:24] dasike_laptop, what do you mean [04:24] MurielGodoi: yes. make sure you setup a local repo tho. [04:24] jimmyww_: this is when you're booting the livecd right? [04:24] MurielGodoi: and add it to sources.list and so on. [04:24] I have no idea why I keep reading "connection reset by beer" [04:24] daisuke_laptop; yep [04:25] do you have a floppy drive hooked up [04:25] jimmyww_: that buffer IO error just means you don't have a floppy drive. It is actually not related to your problem (which I don't know what it is yet :D) [04:26] hmm [04:26] any other kubuntu channels? [04:26] jdong, i cant do anything after this error appears, it just repeats [04:26] bacon333: there is #ubuntu and #edubuntu and i think #xubuntu [04:27] and maybe a #kde too [04:27] and i cant use alternite cd, i have to use live cd [04:27] * ScorpKing nods [04:27] ah [04:27] #linux is helpfull as well [04:27] hmm [04:28] lol thats cool the trouble i was having with my wireless card just got answerd in the new version of ubuntu [04:28] Fade2Blac, out of curiosity, what was the problem? [04:28] bacon333: i think /list will give you a list of channels but you might get lag from that. [04:28] has anyone had difficulty running updates in 7.10???? [04:28] yeah, /list *ubuntu* [04:28] i do a commandline install from the alternate disk, then add kde-core per Jucato's page instructions. then add the other stuff I need/want [04:28] mrksbrd: yeah, the servers are getting hammered [04:29] hahaha [04:29] ok just wanted to make sure it wasn't me [04:29] my wireless card needed some kind of driver and it wouldnt let me start kubuntu [04:29] mrksbrd: it's more like everyone. :P [04:29] can i apply updates during the installer so that they get installed on my hard drive, or will they only be applied to the live version? [04:29] ah yes, some lag [04:29] kinda funny that anyone even wonders about maybe updates today might be a tad slow [04:29] but not too much [04:29] I noticed the d/l for it was very slow as well [04:29] lol [04:30] jesus [04:30] he's not here [04:30] buddha? [04:30] neither [04:30] thor, zeus, juju? [04:30] (richard dawkins reference for anyone who's alert) [04:30] uhm.. who knows... [04:31] can someone help me please? i am running world of warcraft on kubuntu feisty using cedega and it ran fine up until today and now it seams as though it takes an extra 20 or more seconds to load and when it does there is no sound [04:31] is sudo apt-get dist-upgrade basically the same as running adept_updater? [04:31] sound works fine in amarok [04:31] omg, dist-upgrade.py is taking 800mb physical RAM (1.4GB virtual) in the "cleaning up" stage [04:31] also cannot get firefox to install via sudo apt....any ideas?? [04:31] hmm [04:31] mrksbrd: sudo apt-get install firefox [04:32] or wait a while [04:32] says cannot locate [04:32] or just use a package manager? [04:32] enable the repo for firefox [04:32] package mgr is sluggish [04:32] mrksbrd: can you apt-et install anything? [04:32] *apt-get [04:32] true [04:32] ummm...never tried that [04:32] oh' [04:33] lol [04:33] It depends how awesome your computer is too.. [04:33] thought there was a new command...lol [04:33] ;) [04:33] * ScorpKing giggles... [04:33] although your computer may be fast, it may not have the awesome level as say, my 223 mhz box has... :D [04:33] let me try something else brb [04:34] I often say things that really don't make sense.. :/ [04:34] in a moment, i will restart the system. hopefully all will be well. [04:34] bacon333: that could be awesome for your blood presure sometimes. :P [04:34] :D [04:34] noam_>: boom now? [04:34] yup. i'm 83% through "cleaning up" [04:34] haha [04:34] I didn't even get into the er... installing tings.. part... [04:35] there it goes....sorry must just have been due to the servers being hammered [04:35] probably because I installed KDE on top of xubuntu.. :/ [04:35] yes, the servers do drink lots of beer :D [04:35] nah, that's not it [04:35] hmm [04:35] well, something happened to my computer.. [04:36] how can i redownload but not install all the packages on my box? [04:37] no idea [04:37] :( i'm missing the kde packages because i used the live cd to install [04:38] I am so tired... [04:38] why? [04:38] dunno [04:38] just tired :D [04:38] not enough sleep :D [04:38] Sleep? What's that? [04:38] * ScorpKing thinks sleep is a luxuary... [04:39] pfft [04:39] would be awesome if we didn't require it.. [04:39] heh, it's 05:40 here. it's gonna be a long day... [04:39] lol [04:40] Install question pertaining to Install of 6.0? a few weeks ago on an old iMac. In System Services ==: [04:40] one last ?.....has anyone attempted to due a full backup & burn it to dvd??? what i'm attempting to do is make a bootable dvd once I have everything installed "just in case" something should go wrong [04:40] hi all [04:40] has anyone upgraded to gutsy? [04:40] I have [04:40] one one of my computers.. [04:40] mee too [04:40] lots of problems... [04:40] oic... [04:40] I don't recommend doing so yet.. [04:40] you upgraded to the official release? [04:40] wait like... a month or something [04:40] shakey: most people are still trying. [04:41] already 147 updates avail!!! [04:41] :/ [04:41] blame it on the rain that was falling [04:41] I think it's usually a good idea to update about half a month after it's released.. [04:41] so some updates are released, to fix any immediate problems you may get after installing [04:41] Install question pertaining to Install of 6.0? a few weeks ago on an old iMac. In System Services ==> System Settings: it says 'Module could not load... and "Error occurred during upgrade..." How do I reinstall just that item? [04:42] well then, i'm on gutsy! and indeed, kopete crashed === karim is now known as Kream [04:42] * ScorpKing is away for now... [04:42] *really dislikes the word 'crash'... [04:42] also seems konquer doesn't seem to like web addresses still [04:43] Sometimes, I get nightmares about BSODs... [04:43] how can someone ship kopete, a respectable program, for a new version of an operating system millions of people use? [04:43] Well, not really, but close enough [04:43] I like pidgin... [04:43] did 7.04 run into these problems first day of release? [04:43] * or similiar problems [04:44] hmm [04:44] well, I had one problem [04:44] it had to do with the K menuj [04:44] shakey: no [04:44] shakey: i'm reinstalling 7.04 right now :-X [04:44] the other problem had to do with... [04:44] installation issues [04:44] Hi again all, my Gutsy upgrade started this time with no troubles however now it's stuck on the "Modifying SOftware Upgrades" step of the Distro Upgrade process. It's been 99% done for well over an hour?! [04:44] its disheartening really [04:44] not good spoon.. [04:44] don't know man [04:45] Is this still server issues and if so should I just try to wait it out? [04:45] shakey, just give the guys some time they will perfect it [04:45] my install crashed at 82 percent [04:45] I unplugged the network cable, and it resumed [04:45] Damn man! [04:46] Hmm, I suppose I could try that [04:46] Linux is always perfect... [04:46] >.> [04:46] <.< [04:46] is it possible for squid to cache https ? [04:46] true!!!!!!!!!!!! [04:46] or even, proxy https ? [04:46] But I haven't even got to download the actual upgrades yet...I'm wondering whether I should try to restart [04:46] kde > gnome [04:46] yes [04:46] hmm [04:46] sorry, i just had to say it [04:46] ok, comparrisions..: [04:46] emacs, or Vi [04:46] eclipse [04:46] whats the site that allows you to collaborate code again? [04:46] Vi hands down. [04:46] I say emacs [04:46] bacon33, have u ever attempted this...........anyone attempted to due a full backup & burn it to dvd??? what i'm attempting to do is make a bootable dvd once I have everything installed "just in case" something should go wrong [04:47] i always forget the name [04:47] never tried it [04:47] hey good question though, i want to learn one of the two...you guys reccomend vi? [04:47] I say emacs.. [04:47] Torvalds uses a form of emacs.. [04:47] wonder if reconstructor can handle that [04:47] vi has all the crazy keyboard shortcuts, right? [04:47] yes [04:47] but emacs does too [04:47] :D [04:47] er... I think emacs probably is better known for crazy keyboard shortcuts [04:48] emcas has a built in psychiatrist :D [04:48] haha [04:48] actually [04:48] althoug unrelated [04:48] vi has crazy modes you switch between [04:48] haha [04:48] Blender has some really crazy keyboard subjects (modelling program) [04:48] yeah... [04:48] * NightBird preferes emacs over vi [04:48] I swear every key on the keyboard is binded to something [04:48] o yea, i remember vi, i dont like switching [04:48] but then again, I've learned emacs, and not vi, so that might be why [04:48] in Blender [04:49] whats the sight you can copy/paste things to and share stuff with people? [04:49] hehe [04:49] Ed is best.. [04:49] is there a version of emacs that looks better than emacs 21? [04:49] it's the standard. [04:49] !xemacs [04:49] go nano :O [04:49] heh [04:49] yea nano is aight [04:49] whoever wrote vi didnt understand the concept of productivity. [04:49] I like nano sometimes [04:49] lol [04:49] haha [04:49] Sorry, I don't know anything about xemacs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [04:49] nano is what i use for small edits from a command line [04:50] yes [04:50] when I was installing gentoo a while back, I used nano a lot [04:50] gentoo is difficult to install... well, not difficult [04:50] but can be a tedious task [04:50] any files I need to edit as root gets edited using nano >_> [04:50] hehehe [04:50] hmm [04:51] i like the idea of gentoo...i just never knew what cflags to use on my cpu [04:51] menu.lst? "D [04:51] oh [04:51] i like nano and out of habit i still type pico. [04:51] lol [04:51] * shakey likes nano but admitedly doesnt know many shortcuts in it [04:51] bacon333: it's not "difficult" (it makes sense and is logical) just time consuming because it's unautomated :) [04:51] can kubuntu run on the new mac's w/intel chipset??? [04:51] doesn't ubuntu basically replace pico with a call to nano? [04:51] rather, WAS unautomated [04:52] NightBird: indeed [04:52] NightBird: yes === manchicken_ is now known as manchicken [04:52] gentoo is difficult when you make stupid types on command lines :D [04:52] nano and pico are essentally the same [04:52] like, -c instead of -C [04:52] maybe minor differences === thiago_ is now known as thiagoxunil [04:52] (even though at one point they specifically point out to NOT use -c instead of -C) :D [04:52] I've done the gentoo install so many times [04:53] I've memorized some stuff.. [04:53] one being, hdparm -tT /dev/hda :D [04:53] its taking foreeever to download the upgrades for gutsy [04:53] the easiest way to install gentoo is to hook up the box over the network, and then ssh into it through another computer [04:54] ah [04:54] that way you can copy and paste what you are unsure of - using "-c" instead of "-C" [04:54] A nice script would be nice too [04:54] ekrengel: you might not be the only one ... :) [04:54] * NightBird explodes [04:54] se7en^Of^9: : P [04:54] i read an interview with linus and he was saying he doesnt like gentoo for some reason [04:54] linus is really opinionated [04:54] he is [04:54] slackware, anyone? [04:54] and? [04:55] he is crazy [04:55] hmm [04:55] nah, he's just Finnish :D [04:55] does he even have a resume? [04:55] heh [04:55] shakey: why would he need one? [04:55] lol thats the point [04:56] it's like asking if bill gates has a resume... [04:56] Bill Gates needs a resume [04:56] If I were to own an IT company, II woudln't hire Bill Gates.. [04:57] or really any computer technology type company.. [04:57] i would hire him [04:57] what is ubufox??? [04:57] * letalis billy gates holds up a dusty 5.25 disk of q-dos "I stoled it myself!" :D [04:57] hiring bill gates? [04:57] well, if you want lots of GoTo's in your code.. [04:57] haha [04:57] but its good to surround yourself with diverse minds [04:57] sec, I have an interesting link.. [04:57] let me get it [04:58] !find ksq [04:58] Package/file ksq does not exist in gutsy [04:58] oooo...no kidding [04:58] is there a way to search feisty repos via !find? [04:59] aw [05:00] can't find it.. [05:00] there's 2 images.. [05:00] one shows routed system calls extremely neat and tidy [05:00] in a linux machine [05:00] and one image shows system calls extremely messy and un-decryptable.. [05:00] which is Windows :D [05:01] its funny to think...do people sit in IRC rooms dedicated to windows? [05:01] I'm pretty sure Microsoft Windows is radioactive... [05:01] I don't think there are windows fanboys, do you? [05:01] :D [05:01] i used to work with one [05:02] work with one? [05:02] did it work? [05:02] yea [05:02] wait [05:02] no [05:02] lol [05:02] yea to the first question [05:02] yes, there are windows fanboys [05:02] wow [05:02] I used to be a big windows fan.....until I found Ubuntu....the rest is history!!! [05:02] Are desktop effects included by default for Gutsy in KDE, or just Gnome? [05:02] in #windows mostly [05:02] oh, are they the ones who think windows vista is a good operating system? [05:03] one of the people at work would have us upgrade to vista if he had any say in it [05:03] bacon333: the best ever aparently [05:03] lol [05:03] depends what your definition of "upgrade" is.. [05:03] vista sux i just downgraded back to xp [05:03] luckly enough, chances are vista would keep us from working [05:03] Vista is the worst OS since windows ME [05:03] so we haven't done anything [05:03] i had vista on my work laptop..it couldnt even run vs2005 without crying [05:03] snowdonkey: just gnome [05:04] yeah, the horrible attempts at 'good graphics' distract me. [05:04] id be upset if kde was readily available on windows [05:04] I would too :( [05:04] alot of manufactures are sending their computers out ONLY vista capable....will run into probs if trying to downgrade back to XP [05:04] how can i make the bootsplash image be 640x480 during startup and shutdown? [05:04] snowdonkey: at least if your referring to compiz-fusion [05:05] lol [05:05] I have to register in the windows chatroom [05:05] shakey: kde4 will run on windows [05:05] mrksbrd: yea, i actually "downgraded" my work laptop to XP, and i had to search for a lot of drivers [05:05] ScorpKing: any clue why? [05:05] it's BS...talk about a monoply [05:05] My eyesight has degraded since I saw all the MIcrosoft marketing [05:06] shakey: not sure. maybe people will get use to kde and come to linux. [05:06] I like the choice in Linux... [05:06] more than anything.. [05:06] apparently Linus Torvalds also hates gnome [05:07] bacon333: yea ive read numerous articles on that [05:07] sub[t]rnl: Yea, that's what I meant. [05:07] linus either loves things or hates things. don't take him too seriously [05:07] bacon333: no use hating it. they work hard too you know. :P [05:07] what i dont get is...he stated that he uses fedora...which runs gnome, right? [05:07] who works hard? [05:07] sub[t]rnl: Possibly coming after KDE 4? [05:07] fedora can run KDE and gnome [05:07] oic [05:08] yes, I've used it ;) [05:08] i thought it defaulted to gnome [05:08] bacon333: everyone giving their time to OSS [05:08] nope, it gives you choice [05:08] he has had a techtalk in google about how every single source control system in the world completely sucks except for git [05:08] hmm [05:08] I don't mind gnome [05:08] actaully, I really like open source software [05:08] i don't use it [05:08] it gives you choice [05:08] and it's good [05:08] noam_: haha i saw that presentation on youtube [05:08] * ScorpKing nods [05:08] I don't use gnome either, but for some people it's fine [05:08] "they all suck except for the one i made" [05:08] lol [05:09] lol [05:09] One thing I hate about Windows.. [05:09] no choice, all restrictions (DRM) [05:09] lol. like thats working. [05:09] tired of companies telling me of when, where, and what time of day I can watch my movies and other media.. [05:09] bacon...how about having to pay for everything [05:09] pay? [05:09] money? [05:09] :O [05:10] I'd actually pay for linux.. [05:10] but that doesn't really make sense.. soo [05:10] "you see, SVN calls itself CVS Done Right. that can't be, you can't do CVS right. the SVN developers are probably in this room, right? you're stupid!" [05:10] gotta love the man [05:10] yea, hes nice alright [05:10] lol [05:10] hehe [05:11] yes, Torvalds ALSO hates CVS and SVN.. [05:11] I saw part of his video at google.. [05:11] cool, a guy from finland.. [05:12] a google search for linus trovalds shows that video there. [05:12] can anyone tell me why a box would boot sometimes eth card A is eth0 and some times eth card B is eth0 ??? [05:12] google techtalks own. well most of them aren't interesting [05:12] lol [05:13] hey intelikey! some boxes does that. no idea why tho. [05:13] ScorpKing so i'm noticing [05:13] linux hates lots of things [05:14] err [05:14] linu\s [05:14] linus [05:14] :D [05:14] lol [05:14] and he just happens to be in a position where his opinions are considdered of equal worth to the scriptures by geeks everywhere [05:14] so he gets worshipped for the wrong reasons [05:15] Anyone here ever been on USENET? [05:15] ? [05:15] I've never been on it / used it :/ [05:15] bacon333: what is that? [05:15] exactly [05:15] i'm too young [05:15] to have used it [05:15] I've never used it either [05:15] is it like arpanet? [05:15] bah, we had 2 days sunshine in the past 3 weeks and i need to do some whashing. [05:16] if i wanted to set up my nic card to be static, what is the name of that config file? i thought it was /etc/networks... [05:16] I believe USENET is like an un-moderated chat platform or something.. [05:16] scorp...good god where the heck do u live in the rain forest? [05:16] of the old days of the interwebz [05:17] he pulled a cat-5 cable into the rainforest :D [05:17] how do i continue to boot from busybox === lee__ is now known as lee986321 [05:17] shakey yes etc/networks/interfaces [05:17] jimmyww_ mount the root fs on /root and exit [05:18] ahh, danke [05:18] hmm [05:18] i think i am seeding ubuntu 7.10 lol [05:18] I wonder how you would go upon messing up a windows ME box.. [05:18] eh how do i seed kubuntu [05:18] * shakey doesnt understand "seed" [05:19] bacon...use next is really confusing...I use usenext which is very user friendly & has everything [05:19] torrents [05:19] lee986321: just leave it there after the download [05:19] neither do i lol [05:19] *usenet [05:19] lol [05:19] jimmyww_ the reason it didn't mount automaticly is what you'll have to determine. probably didn't load the right module for the disk or possably the /dev/root device node is incorrect. [05:19] i have ubuntu but not kbuntu [05:19] ah [05:19] :/ [05:19] intelikey, thx [05:20] so i down load the iso then?

[05:20] jimmyww_ i might be able to walk you through that. if it's not a raid array or some exotic somethin' [05:21] Isn't Usenext proprietary? [05:21] no [05:21] jimmyww_ what fs is it ?

[05:25] onlything there isn't alot of linux stuffon there.....obviously [05:25] yeah [05:25] hmm [05:25] I feel like having a flamewar right now.. [05:26] with... an unsuspecting Windows user... [05:26] bacon333, no you don't! [05:26] i have fios service & get over 2000kbs/sec...which is actually 2+ mb/s [05:26] Is there is isolated packages files at desktop cd? [05:26] k [05:26] so [05:26] is noam a moderator or something? [05:27] who are the moderators?

[05:29] I'll be back, one day. [05:29] LIL...I am [05:29] .or tomorrow [05:29] night [05:29] cya bacon [05:29] letalis: is gutsy slow? [05:29] noam_, and where is that [05:29] right here [05:30] ah. israel [05:30] LiL-JoN: to be honest i havent noticed a slowdown [05:30] noam_, ok [05:30] sure you dont hacesses that didnt die in the background? [05:30] LiL-JoN, compared to what? i haven't noticed anything slower so far [05:30] processes [05:30] letalis: thats good to hear now im going to go make a install disk but can somebody help me ive never burnt a disk on linux before only on windows [05:30] ugh, i can't use Tweety as i nic coz Tweety is useing it. hehe. hi Tweety. :P ;) [05:31] k3b looks almost just like nero [05:31] LiL-JoN: one guy told me that their boot time got 20seconds faster after upgate [05:31] What will be the md5sum of the ISO ? [05:31] The correct one. [05:31] MurielGodoi: yeah i heard that too [05:31] Name141: it will be in the download website [05:32] on* [05:32] Oh yeah I see now. [05:32] run md5sum yourimage.iso to get the one from the image [05:33] ScorpKing: Arfet install apt-move i noticed that desktop cd has no isolated package files, so I can't use that : [05:33] true [05:33] ScorpKing: is there other way to upgrade my system without download 700mb again? [05:34] ScorpKing: how do i tell if my iso file is genuine. how do i run md5 sum [05:34] run md5sum yourimage.iso to get the one from the image [05:34] LiL-JoN: i never do a check [05:34] MurielGodoi: reinstall [05:34] what about other engines for amarok? [05:34] !md5 [05:34] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [05:34] shakey: me either but thats what its for so why not use it? [05:35] MurielGodoi, try ALT+F2 then in cmd line type upgrade-manager -d [05:35] * shakey thinks to himself "because im ignorant" [05:36] what is this release day ??? [05:36] oh no [05:37] i think were about to get hit with a small lightning storm [05:37] IRC operates with multicast packets, correcT? [05:38] mrksbrd: I will try that... [05:38] the release day for? [05:38] So basically, kubuntu is ubuntu with KDE instead of Gnome ? [05:38] indeed Name141 [05:38] Okie dokey. [05:39] that will allow u to go from 7.04 to 7.10 [05:39] Name141 not just "basicly" but "altogather" yes [05:39] what is better genome or kde? [05:39] mrksbrd: I had no update-manager here... i am installing it now [05:39] lee__ blackbox [05:39] intelikey: eh ? [05:39] lee__, depends on what you like [05:39] ahh [05:39] lee, gnome is very generic [05:39] kde > all [05:39] lee__: it is like religion :) [05:39] everything that is ubuntu can also bei in kubuntu and vice versa [05:39] project looking glass looks sick though [05:40] u can install kde as a session over gnome [05:40] or politics [05:40] hmm religion and computers hmm...some how.. never mind lol [05:40] * shakey thinks gnome has a apple look n feel [05:40] i'm going to start an ubuntu flavor named jewbuntu [05:40] thats where I seen that bar thingy [05:40] the gnome kde war has raged on since they were first concieved. [05:40] hello [05:40] on the apple systems at KLTV [05:40] well [05:40] eh Macs [05:40] * intelikey wonders how a desktop can have a"look and feel" .... [05:41] I'm not sure why it has raged on so long [05:41] personally kde has more structure under the hood than gnome imho [05:41] intelikey: what do u mean? [05:41] because everyone knows kde is the only option [05:41] noam_, i like that [05:41] eh me too [05:41] oh you mean the defaults. [05:41] wonders the same thing [05:41] and if you don't you are probably a comunist [05:41] or at least stupid. [05:41] How do I LOWER my mouse sensitivity ? After I upgraded to Gutsy my mouse has tripled in speed making it almost unusable [05:41] I mean! [05:41] !nvidia [05:41] To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [05:41] lol@Capah [05:41] woot its faster [05:41] waht the [05:41] i mean, just look at the ubuntu logo, it's begging to be transformed into a david's shield [05:42] youre just not fast enough for your computer now. [05:42] :) [05:42] j/k [05:42] earlier I was running ubuntu 7.04 live, and I didn't really like gnome that well. Also, I noticed it wouldn't write to my NTFS drives, will it now? (or was the read-only due to it being a Live disk?) [05:42] o shoot, niles_ on the verizon network, i can call him for free if i want [05:42] soo.... anyone? please? Can someone tell me how to stop my mouse from traveling at the speed of sound across my screen when I breathe on it? [05:42] should be in systemsettings or kcontrol under the periphrial options [05:42] !ntfs | Name141 [05:42] Name141: ntfs is To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For NTFS write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse [05:42] Name141: gutsy has ntfs write support [05:42] fuuuuck [05:42] !ntfs-3g [05:42] ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions [05:42] my sound is boned in gutsy [05:43] !language | Doctor_Nick [05:43] Doctor_Nick: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. [05:43] eh I think I just realised orange red blob on radar..not a good thing to see coming your way [05:43] CapaH, stop breathing :) [05:43] i got kids in here [05:43] any how [05:43] I like kde but iam over loaded [05:43] I got so used to windows [05:43] The only thing I found was 'mouse acceleration' which was set to 2.0 --- I reduced it to as low as it goes (1.0) and now instead of traveling at twice the speed of sound, it travels at the speed of sound --- but I need it to be like.... 0.0001 :) [05:44] I heard that 7.10 is (supposedly) supposed to read/write in NTFS ? [05:44] and windows way of thinking that I completely fergot aobut waht it was like to be able to use source coding [05:44] already. [05:44] is it just me, or are the poor servers totally hammered and bogged with everyone upgrading? [05:44] Name141, if running 7.10, shouldn't need that install, was already incorp into new version [05:44] just how many servers are there? [05:44] factor 8 [05:44] OK. [05:44] can I do this in xorg.conf somehow? [05:44] lee__: there is alot of them [05:45] mrksbrd: I am downloading 7.10 later. The 7.04 disks just came today. [05:45] and how can a non profit....afford em [05:45] CapaH, i suspect xorg.conf in /etc but not sure how to change [05:45] oops there I go again thinking out of the box [05:45] thatd be sweet if O Reilly would release "Xorg.conf in a nutshell" [05:46] so waht linux offers us is away to compile, and build..and engenier am I correct [05:46] you can't put all of xorg.conf in a single nutshell [05:46] Oh yeah, another thing, is it possible to command line shut off the NIC and then restart it? [05:46] So I can set it up in crontabs [05:46] If I am not here. [05:46] My ISP has a bandwidth limit per day, and damn if I'm letting "idle" hours add up. [05:47] CapaH, probably but i am not the expert there. i always keep the previous release xorg.conf file around in case of problem like that perhaps some one else is better equipped to help with xorg.conf [05:47] so basically waht I have at my finger tips is not jsut the freedom of choice, but freedom to change the soft ware that e download? or look at it to build on it..well soem in part? [05:47] has anyone experienced sound not working after an upgrade from fiesty? [05:48] I think a light isstarting to slowly turn on here [05:48] yet basic enough for any one to use [05:48] Hi all, is kdebase-workspace_3.94.0 beta3? [05:49] lee__ sounds like you are getting there... [05:49] to me it looked like beta2, so i was looking for the kde4 beta3 packages... but couldn't find anything except the announcement :( [05:49] I wish i could program. I'd love to help get apt-torrent working at this point :P [05:49] Name141, good luck...i've had nothing but troubles trying to keep 7.04 recognizing it [05:50] !kde [05:50] KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu.

[05:50] lee__ if no one mentioned this to you yet.: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing [05:50] well after taking the time to think aobut why the ati drivers and other drivers...are the way they are..it creats a basic need, a need to use recources and a need to..eh..understand coding [05:50] yes taht part I understood [05:50] and I value taht freedome [05:51] aslam: 3.94 is beta3 [05:51] yes I was kinda perpleexed when I read coppy left..lol [05:51] wow cool. thanks... [05:51] * intelikey personally disagrees with the "Ubuntu is as free as we can make it" clause. and believes it's a "cop out" for not standing by the first statement. [05:52] how do i burn the iso to disk on kubuntu feisty? [05:52] maybe it i s the challenge of getting this opperational that has led me not to reload windows...it makes me think FOR ONCE [05:52] aslam, i had that page up earlier and cant remember where it was had all the info on it === DarkHack is now known as D[a]rkH[a]ck === lee__ is now known as lee986321 [05:52] LiL-JoN: right click and burn using k3b :) [05:52] o shoot! [05:52] * hydrogen believes free-as-in-freedom is a personal ideal and is not one that should be forcibly imposed on others.. as this in itself negates freedom [05:52] ok MurielGodoi' [05:53] erg [05:53] * shakey ponders...isnt that what America does? [05:53] thats for #politics! [05:53] * mrksbrd thinks hydrogen is getting political on us.....look out [05:53] o noes! [05:53] LiL-JoN: k3b also calculates the md5sum for you so you can compare them [05:53] true [05:53] hydrogen only as much as forcefully imposing non-free does the same. [05:53] * LiL-JoN likes to eat little poor defenseless puppies [05:53] !politcs [05:54] * shakey fights old grandmas [05:54] intelikey: its not forcibly imposed though.. you are free to not use it [05:54] intelikey: if its not provided, I am not free to use it [05:54] without going about third party methods and hackarounds [05:54] * LiL-JoN is a foxy grandpa [05:54] * LiL-JoN is just kidding [05:54] hydrogen "not provided" != "not installed by default" [05:55] 'ello. [05:55] * mrksbrd wants to know if LiL-John has his gold cup in hand [05:55] right.. [05:55] but I'm not sure what your point is [05:55] I'm talking about provided [05:55] omg this argument is great! [05:56] lol [05:56] it's not an argument, it's a difference in opinion. [05:56] lol [05:56] shakey, yeah both of them will get banned! [05:56] lol good answer [05:56] oic [05:56] !politic [05:56] it was grand nonetheless [05:56] hydrogen my point was "as free as we can make it" doesn't sound like installing linux-restricted* by default... but. i've said too much already.

[06:06] intelikey: whooo [06:06] MurielGodoi, tough i feel for you i have to test everything i use before new installs [06:06] intelikey: thats a long time [06:07] no. just 18 months [06:07] intelikey: thats a long time [06:07] MurielGodoi, so i keep a list and test each one then fresh install if all work one fails no upgrade [06:07] mrksbrd: It was going to upgrade... but the download was at 3kb/s ! [06:07] pfft. you must be young. [06:07] anyone running kubuntu 7.10? [06:07] MurielGodoi, no new install that is if one ap fails [06:08] thats because of the server load right now.... [06:08] i just finished burning gutsy gibbon going to go test ill be back shortly to chat soem more [06:08] are you folks familiar with the rsync of releases i got about 240K earlier with rsync [06:08] intelikey: i cant open alsamixer or kmix [06:08] they just crash [06:09] Doctor_Nick ok that sujests kernel module. start with ahat. [06:09] that [06:09] how do i plug my usb stick in if i dont have permissions to mount it ? [06:09] ok [06:09] jtt: I have some workmates that are already running gutsy, that is ok, but i will need recompile all project again [06:09] intelikey: so now what? [06:10] hatter, alot of configuring, u using 7.04? [06:10] MurielGodoi, ugh! [06:10] MurielGodoi: same problem here. ;) [06:10] mrksbrd, yes [06:10] Doctor_Nick you check the inserted modules aganst the chipset for the device. i.e. lshw | less and you can grep the output of lsmod [06:10] uhu!! I'm not alone! [06:11] i have a custom and working kopete to name just one. [06:11] it is a known problem in that ver, and takes alot of work in your fstab file, best person to get intouch with is genii [06:11] Doctor_Nick also usefull lspci modprobe -l and google. [06:11] mrksbrd, why would it kubuntu not mount this automatically ? [06:11] Trying to upgrade Feisty -> Gutsy - In my "Adept Manager", I click Adept -> Manage Repo's -> Download from -> Other... -> Find Best Server, and it defaults to the main US server (which is totally hammered right now) and closes the dialog immediately. Is that normal? [06:11] can somebody help me before i go [06:12] i have a bunch of songs on my linux desktop [06:12] and i cant drag them over to my windows harddrive but i can veiw the drive [06:12] !ntfs-3g [06:12] hatter, you know about sudo right? [06:13] jtt, yes, arent we trying to use a gui here ? [06:13] ScorpKing: i have that installed already [06:13] bah! what's up with this bot today? [06:13] hatter, not sure... I had all kinds of trouble myself... u can try sudo ntfs3g-config [06:13] poor people coming from windows... [06:13] LiL-JoN: then just mount it with ntfs-3g and copy it across [06:13] hatter, just asking because i dont use the gui [06:13] mrksbrd: I'am glad that I put /home in other partition [06:14] ScorpKing: im noobie lol [06:14] Doctor_Nick oh. almost forgot there is an #alsa channel too. [06:14] jtt, np, where is a usb stick that is detected then put so i can mount it ? [06:14] ugh [06:14] LiL-JoN: hehe, i remember. :P [06:14] maybe ill just install from scratch [06:14] wahts the apget line for Xine? ? [06:14] ScorpKing: its mounted already i just cant copy stuff to it [06:14] * intelikey shrugs. [06:14] apt-get update ? [06:14] ScorpKing: i can take files from the windows drive but not put them on there [06:14] Please... can someone help me on a few things. I just finished upgrading to 7.10 from 7.04 - First, my mouse is *WAY* too sensitive, and even when I go to preferences / mouse and I change acceleration to 1.0 (lowest possible) and I set threshold to 20 ( highest possible ) --- it is still WAY too sensitive. Secondly, whenever I try to go to compiz settings manager (like I used to before the upgrade) --- it starts to load, then just simp [06:14] ly doesn't load. Can anyone help me? [06:14] LiL-JoN: unmount it. what did you type to mount it? [06:14] hatter, believe /media/usb something or /media/sdN etc. [06:15] * Rask330 waves. "This is probably the worst time to be seeking kubuntu-based help, but... I need some assistance doing a dual-monitor setup. I have the proprietary drivers for my nVidia Geforce 6800 XT installed, and both of the monitors set to their native resolutions. Trouble is, the smaller monitor (1024x768) pans and scans. How do I stop that?" :) [06:15] its not media/usb [06:15] Doctor_Nick i started this with "don't expect me to fix it for you. but i might be able to point you in the right dirrection..." [06:15] ScorpKing: "mount /media/windows [06:15] " [06:15] oh [06:15] hatter, in any case they should all end up under /media [06:15] well guys... i will do a clean install and hope be back in some minutes :) [06:15] LiL-JoN: can you pastebin /etc/fstab? [06:15] jtt, i would think so but it doesnt [06:16] hatter, tail /var/log/messasges see that /dev/ it said came in [06:16] intelikey: I'm saying that by the time I track down what's actually causing this, I could have reinstalled and set up all my programs again [06:16] ScorpKing: yeah [06:16] hatter, possibly /dev/sdb [06:16] or is apt get xine install? [06:16] ScorpKing: but how do i view the file using konsole [06:17] its somethin I fergot to make a note of [06:17] and i know what the problem probably is, and there's no way to fix it but reinstalling ubuntu [06:17] jtt, ok its /dev/sdb1 [06:17] LiL-JoN: kdesu kate /etc/fstab [06:17] jtt, thx [06:17] Doctor_Nick the csues it probably that the module for your card has changed from one kernel version to the next... just a guess. but getting alsa working is a "one time" thing for most people... [06:17] hatter, anytime [06:17] ScorpKing: nvm i type kate /etc/fstab [06:17] this is a real problem for linux desktop [06:17] or cause even. [06:17] hatter: what's wrong? [06:18] plug in a usb stick and it wont let you mount it because of permissions [06:18] i'll be back, changing computers [06:18] hatter, my gui mount use to work in feisty and one day it went away probably some other pkg messed it up [06:18] hatter: is it in fstab? [06:18] intelikey: I doubt its that, I unplugged the soundcard and alsa still isnt starting [06:18] Sorry, I don't know anything about politcs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [06:18] ScorpKing: that's the thing though - should it have to be in fstab? [06:18] ScorpKing, he got mounted [06:18] Daisuke_Laptop: no [06:19] jtt, i would have it working one hour, the next i'd have to start all over [06:19] Hi everyone [06:19] jtt: what options did he use? [06:19] ScorpKing: http://pastebin.com/m45c988bc [06:19] it's very frustrating.....so far w/7.10 i haven't had the prob [06:19] mrksbrd, yeah mine just went away permanently so i ignore it and mount manually [06:19] mine i couldn't even force it to mount [06:20] ScorpKing wahts the comand for manually getting a program and intsalltin it? [06:20] ScorpKing, he mounted it manually just normal mount command the gui did not get fixed [06:20] something was really wacky w/mine [06:20] jtt: apt-get or aptitude [06:20] and the name of the program after it [06:20] ever since i upgraded to 7.10, my cpu seems to be running at full speed much more than it used to [06:20] * LiL-JoN wonders if ScorpKing is readin pastebin :[ [06:20] jtt: he should add -o uid=1000,gid=1000 in there [06:20] powermanager is still set to dynamic [06:21] * ScorpKing is reading... [06:21] is it just me or is there something i should tweak? [06:21] * LiL-JoN loves ScorpKing [06:21] ScorpKing, ok for my info add it where? [06:21] Scorp... I put in a UUID and everything when running 7.04 & still wouldn't mount [06:21] jtt the mount command [06:22] so i just missed anything said about the usb [06:22] eh woul it be xine install or install xine? [06:22] jtt: sudo mount -o uid=1000,gid=1000 /dev/sda1 /media/disk [06:22] if anything was said [06:22] intelikey, ok i thought he meant there wanted clarificatoin [06:22] no matter what I tried was the same outcome....1 sec it would work, the next it wouldn't [06:22] how do i privet message somebody [06:22] LiL-JoN: change it like this - /dev/hdc1 /media/windows ntfs-3g user,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 [06:22] ScorpKing, command prompt is fine for people that know linux, but coming from windows they dont [06:22] ScorpKing, ok he knew most of that he wanted the kde gui to find and mount it [06:22] Aussie....lol alot was said [06:23] mrksbrd, damn [06:23] AussieHatter: yeah i know. :P [06:23] jtt: sudo mount -o uid=1000,gid=1000 /dev/sda1 /media/disk [06:23] try that Aussie [06:23] that works, but the gui should do it [06:23] or do something [06:23] ScorpKing: after that what do i do? [06:23] like 'run as admin' or something [06:23] eh iam trying to get Xine extra plugin [06:24] is there no way for the gui to look after it ? [06:24] LiL-JoN: mount /media/windows and copy your stuff [06:24] your right but like I said it was a known problem in that version [06:24] Does anybody use Foxconn motherboard [06:24] ScorpKing: i love you [06:24] ;) [06:24] Aussie..... goto your fstab file [06:24] I just finished upgrading to 7.10 from 7.04 - First, my mouse is *WAY* too sensitive, and even when I go to preferences / mouse and I change acceleration to 1.0 (lowest possible) and I set threshold to 20 ( highest possible ) --- it is still WAY too sensitive. Secondly, whenever I try to go to compiz settings manager --- it just simply doesn't load. Can anyone help me? [06:24] !bot [06:24] mrksbrd, are you speaking to me about know problem in that version ? [06:24] ScorpKing: how do i unmount it first? [06:25] LiL-JoN: umount /media/windows [06:25] type kdesu kate /etc/fstab [06:25] LiL-JoN add the remount, in the -o string [06:25] yes aussie [06:25] whhy is when a bot leaves poepl do !bot? [06:25] mrksbrd, this is addressed in gutsy ? [06:25] intelikey: huh [06:25] lol [06:25] supposed to be....(crossing fingers) Mine is working fine right now [06:26] ScorpKing: bash: unmount: command not found [06:26] LiL-JoN you don't have to dismount an fs to change the options. mount -o remount,blah,blah / [06:26] mrksbrd, would you be able to put name and comma of who are speaking to please ? sorry I am getting confused [06:26] LiL-JoN: sorry, umount [06:26] AussieHatter, type kdesu kate /etc/fstab [06:26] sorry [06:26] lol [06:27] trying to get the xine extraplugins [06:27] mrksbrd, i have mounted it now, but my problem was my g/f trying to do some work and i was away [06:27] oh ok [06:27] lee__: that brings the bot back [06:27] mrksbrd, kde should be allowing a usb stick to be plugged in [06:27] i uderstand the permissions problem [06:27] but the gui needs to address this somehow [06:28] ah oh I just learned something new [06:28] Aussie.... right it should pop-up a dialog box [06:28] my friend's harddisk has default maount point as "/media/sda1" while installation of kubuntu. Should i change it to "/media/hdc1" or not???????? [06:28] mrksbrd, or have a run as admin option like windows [06:28] ScorpKing: i love you again lol also after i install gutsy can you help me get it mounted again [06:28] AussieHatter are you saying that "there is utterly a fault, if the running os doesn't monitor for new devices/media " ??? [06:28] AussieHatter, mrksbrd i suspect it is a hot plug issue not calling the gui properly [06:29] LiL-JoN: just write that down and if you have a problem come back. ;) [06:29] jtt, i believe your right [06:29] ScorpKing: iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight [06:29] intelikey, yes. we are speaking of people coming from windows, i dont think its too much to ask if a usb stick is plugged in that it can be accessed [06:29] i just finished the install of 7.10(a fresh install) and now when trying to add programs from the "Add/Remove programs" i keep getting this (There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages. ) any ideas on what is causing this(sorry i'm still pretty new to linux in generral) [06:29] my friend's harddisk has default maount point as "/media/sda1" while installation of kubuntu. Should i change it to "/media/hdc1" or not???????? [06:30] AussieHatter it can be accessed, that's not the same as "it does it for me" [06:30] Aussie...u have to keep in mind this isn't Windows....lol [06:30] AussieHatter: i think it's handled by hotplug which has a problem and now it's not working. it does work on my box. [06:30] apparle: no [06:31] intelikey, do you think that each time you plug a usb stick in you should have to open a term window and mount it manually [06:31] ? [06:31] i dont think you should. [06:31] AussieHatter: true [06:31] ScorpKing, on 7.04 ? [06:31] yes [06:31] !compiz > me [06:31] ScorpKing, you can plug a usb stick in and out and access it trivially ? [06:31] AussieHatter then it's simply a matter of "openion" on what "should be" and off topic. [06:31] yes [06:31] !compiz | me [06:31] me: 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 [06:32] ScorpKing, ok, good [06:32] Aussie....Your right you shouldn't, something goes wrong in the config file & messes things up.....that's what I'm trying to tell you [06:32] is there any utility for compiz in kubuntu? [06:32] I didnt know taht this program had AI in it [06:32] mrksbrd, ok [06:32] you tpye in the lil black box and it tells ya [06:32] wierd [06:32] ScorpKing:By the way why is it getting mounted as /media/sda1???????????????? [06:32] Generic: compizconfig-settings-manager runs in kde, along with compiz and all the plugins [06:32] ok I learned something new [06:33] apparle, mine was seen as /dev/sdb1 [06:33] taht lil black box..is smart [06:33] sub[t]rnl, ah, I didn't see a link for it in the menu [06:33] ubuntu ending xmms support :-/ [06:33] apparle: it's most likely a SATA disk [06:33] !xgl | LiL-JoN [06:33] Generic: you might not have it installed. Try alt+f2 ccsm [06:33] apparle, tail the syslog and you can see what it is getting discovered as [06:33] sub[t]rnl, you're right, it's not :p [06:33] the problem is i am always in a terminal window never in gui's and so i dont experience these problems :) [06:33] :P [06:33] ScorpKing: If it is normal harddisk then it gets mounted as hdc??? [06:33] apparle because that's what the device is. sda = first scsi or sata/pata or usb drive and 1 being the first partition on that device [06:34] Oh sweet, katapult is actually working for me now [06:34] apparle: if it is IDE yes, most of the time. use UUID's to mount your disks [06:34] apparle: hdc is a ide sda is a sata [06:34] they are however intriguing to say the least and certainly a problem for windows folks [06:35] ScorpKing: when im in the dekstop cd im gonig to talk to you while im installing :] [06:35] apparle, since kernel 2.6.XX all storage devices are sdX something [06:35] apparle no need looking for a C: or D: in linux unless you make them... : > 'D:' ;mkdir 'C:' ;mv 'D:' 'C:' [06:35] LiL-JoN: np [06:35] LiL-JoN: I have a PATA hardisk but it gets mounted as hdc? Why? [06:36] apparle, in 7.04 or 7.10 [06:36] intelikey: I know I will not get C:\ etc but i wanted to know why mine is mounted as hdc and my friend's as sda [06:36] jtt: 7.04 [06:37] omg... [06:37] apparle, early 7.04 kernels still had hdX later kernels had sdX [06:37] * ScorpKing lights a smoke... [06:37] apparle different hardware. different device. [06:37] apparle, different types of HDD's [06:37] * jtmoney throws in a lipper [06:37] * mrksbrd lol @ ScorpKing [06:38] apparle: to get a UUID of a disk type uuidgen /dev/sda1 [06:38] jtt : if I upgrade to gutsy the mine will also be detected as sda?? [06:38] apparle: why is this so important if i may ask? [06:38] apparle, cant say for certain but i believe so, the kernel modules take care of that [06:38] not unless gutsy is using scsi emulation like edgy did... [06:38] * mrksbrd hands ScorpKing a hammer [06:39] wahts it mean when no "Suitable Mux" can be found? [06:39] * ScorpKing keeps it close by... [06:39] lmao [06:39] what is mux lol? [06:39] : > 'D:\' ;mkdir 'C:\' ;mv 'D:\' 'C:\' ;ls 'C:\' [06:39] After installing 7.10 as a clean install, trying to use the "Add\Remove progams" i keep getting an error "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages." and firefox is greyed out in the selection, I'm still pretty new to linux, any ideas on what is wrong would be appreciated [06:39] apparle: sometimes the live cd will show hda and after it's installed it will be sda and so on and so on. [06:39] i havent checked lately but alan cox rewrote the low level i/o drivers and i believe all the storage devices will now be known as sdX something anyone know more about that? [06:39] is it possible to get video previews in dolphin? [06:40] apparle: there isn't much jou can do about it. [06:40] apparle type fdisk -l that will tell you your HDD type your system see's [06:41] let me look at my early gutsy about 3 weeks ago and see what devices it has [06:41] CrazyPoultry: does that happen just when you try to run Add/Remove Programs or when you already try to install something [06:41] hi all [06:41] jtt: are there any improvements in sound configuration in gutsy, i have and having problems in feisty. [06:41] hi meuhlol! [06:41] ScorpKing well he could dsiable the scsi emulation if he wanted too :) [06:41] happens afer selecting and hitting apply, also happening in the complicated looking adept too [06:41] CrazyPoultry, I had that problem, I rebooted & relaunched, that seemed to correct the prob [06:41] damn, DVD of gutsy not DL yet lol [06:41] * ScorpKing nods [06:42] apparle: gutsy barfed on my sound :-X [06:42] meuhlol: use torrents, i was getting 1 MB/s [06:42] 71% :D [06:42] apparle, cant tell you because i dont do much sound others on here can answer that question [06:42] jtmoney: i take DVD from torrent [06:42] ohh [06:42] CrazyPoultry: what were you trying to install? [06:42] i don't understand why people download the DVD anyways... i would just apt-get install whatever i needed that wasn't in the base install (very, very little) [06:43] 140 kbs :/ [06:43] firefox, and a few other random things [06:43] firefox is the greyed out one tho [06:43] i take a DVD cuz i will reformat my HDD [06:43] no beryl on 4.10 :(( [06:43] jtmoney: Why your sound stopped working?? [06:43] CrazyPoultry... type sudo apt-get install firefox from your console [06:43] aaaaaa? [06:43] waht the...Sun-Java Demo? [06:43] * ScorpKing takes the hammer and go away... === Generic is now known as Ashex [06:44] lol [06:44] mrtimbo: no beryl on 7.10 but think there are Compiz :p [06:44] apparle: not really sure, plus i was having problems with the computer even booting into x properly... just installed 7.04 for the time being, but dist-upgrade is taking forever =( [06:44] Sun-java5 is a demo? [06:44] CrazyPoultry: sounds like a broken package [06:44] Eneloop: Package firefox has no installation candidate was the result [06:44] i dont like compiz, lol i have been using the beryl layout and settings for the last year and some change [06:44] err that was e: Package [06:45] By the way on behalf of my friend: which one should i install 32 or 64 [06:45] eh whatsa spinning cube? [06:45] eh whats cube? [06:45] som new setting ? [06:45] apparle 64 may be a little more problemattic depending on what you do. [06:46] if u have a 32bit processor u install that if u have a 64bit then install 64, but u bannot install a 64bit on a 32bit [06:46] you can install the 32 bit on the 64 tho [06:46] * ScorpKing sits back and decide to keep quiet... [06:46] apparle, gutsy of 9/21/07 has all devices sdX or scXN kernel 2.6.22-12 so odds on bet are that all devices will be that from now on [06:46] correct [06:47] what cube? [06:47] intelikey: In what way problematic [06:47] * mrksbrd wants ScorpKing to give his input...lol [06:47] mrksbrd: LOLZ [06:47] bah [06:47] mrksbrd: What about pentium 4 === ubuntu is now known as LiL-JoN [06:47] p4 != AMD64 [06:47] mrksbrd, ahh u mean you cant run 64 at 1/2 speed on 32 any more :) [06:48] is it a 64bit or a 32 bit....this is what were saying [06:48] cube is 32 bit an 64? [06:48] apparle wine flash and some other things may be hard to get working [06:48] ScorpKing: im on the kubuntu disk every other time ive installed linux [06:48] ScorpKing: ive had to press safe grtaphics mode [06:48] mrksbrd:can i install amd64 on p4 [06:48] LiL-JoN: ok [06:48] ScorpKing: this time "install kubuntu" works :] [06:48] HUH????????????? [06:48] LiL-JoN: nice :D [06:49] lol i did [06:49] if your asking about the chipset ....NO [06:49] pentuim is pentuim & AMD is AMD [06:49] ScorpKing: i love the new theme [06:49] lee__: what are you talking about? :P [06:49] * mrksbrd tries to take the hammer back [06:50] ScorpKing: im installing right now isnt that kool lol [06:50] oops! [06:50] * ScorpKing gives the hammer back and get a bigger one... [06:50] ScorpKing: im just excited lol [06:50] LiL-JoN: sure is cool. ;) [06:50] intelikey: Can you tell me other packages which are problematic on 64 like wine [06:50] hmm emotes...hmm reminds me [06:50] sledg-o-matic for ScorpKing [06:50] jtt, not sure if you ever could, there would be no benefit @ all [06:50] lol [06:51] ScorpKing: whenevcer i think about gutsy i think futuristic and clean and thats exaclty what it is :] [06:51] apparle, do u have a 64bit processor or not??????????????????????? [06:51] anyone know anything about usb speakers with kubuntu? [06:51] mrksbrd: i mean to say can i install 64bit on P4 [06:51] mrksbrd, sorry that was a joke :) a poor attempt at humor i am afraid [06:51] mrksbrd: i do lol [06:51] LiL-JoN: every release just gets better [06:51] I'm having issues with kmixer getting the channel right [06:51] apparle google can, i can't, i can tell you that with older 64bit and ati chips things went south in a hurry [06:51] I am back and happy in my new ubuntu gutsy :) [06:51] !DSS80 [06:52] MurielGodoi: im installing it right now [06:52] HAS FOUND THE MISSING LINK lol [06:52] yay [06:52] MurielGodoi, upgrade or new install [06:52] apparle, as long as it is a 64bit processor, if u have a standard 32bit then the answer is NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [06:52] jtt: new [06:52] mrksbrd: I don't know. That's why i am asking? i have a p4 2.4GHz. Thats all I know [06:52] Yahoo yippe does the celtic hsppy jig [06:52] Again, this is probably the worst time to be seeking kubuntu-based help, but... I need some assistance doing a dual-monitor setup. I have the proprietary drivers for my nVidia Geforce 6800 XT installed, and both of the monitors set to their native resolutions. Trouble is, the smaller monitor (1024x768) pans and scans. How do I stop that? :) [06:52] MurielGodoi, so now the compiling starts? [06:52] jtt: newi am still testing all features [06:52] jtt, sorry that went right by my head....lol [06:52] what's the sources.list line for the canonical commercial repo? [06:52] lee__ between ??? [06:52] (for gutsy) [06:52] jtt: unfortunatelly :/ [06:53] I've successfully stumped the KDE channel. X) [06:53] lee__ oh the celtic music ? i see. [06:53] heehee It was the greyed out java tht i had to down load manually Lava 6 runtime [06:53] mrksbrd, i figured with all the debris flying around i would try to lighten things up a little lol [06:53] Rask330: or maybe nobodies had this problem [06:53] on amorch [06:53] apparle....u probably don't then...I'd stick with a 32bit install then [06:53] MurielGodoi, i feel for you [06:53] Rask330: but thats a nice card if you were using windows caus thats for gaming lol [06:53] mrksbrd: Tell me is p4 2.4 GHz a 64bit proccessor [06:54] LiL-JoN: I suppose it's possible... but having two monitors of different size cannot be that uncommon an issue. [06:54] Albannach celtic guraunteed to test your subs and surropund [06:54] jtt: that is okay. [06:54] Rask330: more then you think [06:54] ooo i ferg to the graphic eq [06:54] I got the card for $60 from a friend. I'm really not a big gamer, but I didn't want to settle for some crappy onboard video. [06:54] apparle, not all the time.....my guess would e NO [06:55] LiL-JoN: Here boot time got around 15sec faster [06:55] apparle, i think p4 2.4 is definitely 32bit [06:55] if it is a 64bit processor it usually says it somewhere on the puter [06:55] hi everyone i just enabled universe and teh other repos on my new gutsy install, but it's stuck at "waiting for headers (50%)". i click cancel and try again it just stays at 50 I try using different servers and its still stuck, anyone know how to fix? [06:55] apparle: I thing that Pentium D was the first 64bits [06:55] MurielGodoi: depends what hardware you gots [06:55] AMD are mostly the ones putting out 64bit processors to the consumer [06:56] I really don't want to give up on Linux. ^^; It's just that every time I try, I hit a snag that I can't get past. [06:56] MurielGodoi heh my boot time is less than half of the default setup. [06:56] Rask330: thats what makes linux so fun [06:56] apparle: cat /proc/cpuinfo might be usefull [06:56] Rask330: fixing your problems [06:56] apparle, execute lshw and look for the cpu section it should tell the width of 32 or 64 [06:56] intelikey: there is some tips in foruns about that. [06:56] as of right now 64 bit is kinda useless, because there are not too many apps out, 64bit would benifit if in a server or a high end gamming system [06:57] god I can't speel tonight [06:57] mrksbrd, true, true again [06:58] LiL-JoN: I don't know. I'd want there to be a basis off of which to customize-- something to fall back to. But when things don't work like this, all I can really do is fall back to Windows. [06:58] Really though, I'm not looking to philosophize :P [06:58] MurielGodoi it's ok i really don't want to make it thake the extra time that a default system takes... posting in 41 seconds from a cold power on is fine with me. [06:58] misspelled words make it more exciting [06:58] lol [06:58] apparle: and lshw | grep width as well of course [06:58] Anyone know anything about this dual monitor pan-and-scanning? [06:59] jtt: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_4 this site says it supports x86_64 instructions [06:59] * mrksbrd thinks Scorp is getting in over his head again [06:59] * mrksbrd hands him a paddle [06:59] apparle, interesting do th lshw and see what width it says [06:59] * ScorpKing hides and sip some coffee... [06:59] apparle, but it has to be a 64bit to begin with [07:00] apparle, what manufacturer is your puter [07:00] cat /proc/cpuinfo [07:00] intelikey, exactly [07:00] ^^ [07:01] jtt: i don't have linux installed on my friend's machine. i have a dual-core myself === ubuntusucks is now known as elkkubuntu [07:01] which doesn't actually tell me if this cpu is 32 or 64 bit but if it was 64 it would tell me... [07:01] mrksbrd: It is assembled [07:02] does anyone here have a 64bit cpu? [07:02] i do [07:02] athlon x2 [07:02] i'm not even sure if the make a dual-core 64bit....but I could be wrong [07:02] xevious: what does lshw | grep width say? [07:03] 32bit here [07:03] ScorpKing; I have a Pentium dual core with 64bit version installed === elkkubuntu is now known as myrttiubuntu [07:03] ScorpKing: er. a lot [07:03] * mrksbrd smashes his head against the desk [07:03] 32 or 64? [07:03] most are 32bit, but there's 5 lines that say 64 bit [07:03] ty [07:03] case closed. :P [07:03] goes to bed have to work tomorrow have enjoyed the conversation, later [07:04] c ya [07:04] cya jtt [07:04] re [07:04] c ya jtt [07:04] * ScorpKing pass mrksbrd some aspirin.. [07:04] ScorpKing: under cpu it says 64bit [07:05] * mrksbrd rips them from ScorpKing [07:05] ScorpKing: i think lshw|grep x86-64 is a more solid answer there [07:05] yeah, a 32bit cpu won't show any 64 lines from lshw | grep width. [07:06] Sorry, I don't know anything about dss80 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [07:07] ScorpKing the bus widths are listed as well. [07:07] yes [07:07] * xevious adds medibuntu and canonical back into his sources, post-dist-upgrade [07:07] Does anybody know a method to check the bit size on windows. I wanna do that before installing kubuntu [07:07] they wont' be 64 on a 32bit cpu tho [07:08] ugh... [07:08] apparle: yeah. lemme pull the link [07:09] lmao rotf [07:09] * ScorpKing sings a happy song and tru to relax...

How do I make Alt + Tab scroll through minimized windows? [07:38] hammering all fronts too [07:38] yeah we're dealing with him [07:38] Jucato, can't u ban his entire ip?? [07:38] Tell him to go faster. [07:38] hehe, I'm using nIRC which is a weird IRC client...this is the freenode kubuntu chat, right? [07:38] snowdonkey: the system should be doing that on its own [07:38] mrksbrd: he's on tor [07:38] So he gets excess flood. [07:38] snowdonkey does it not default to that ? [07:39] oh ok [07:39] i wish i had his ip [07:39] snowdonkey oh you mean min/win only ? [07:39] >:) [07:39] vzduch: I just installed gutsy from feisty and now I notice it scrolls only visible windows [07:39] mrksbrd: it's easy for you to say .But imagine downloading all the files and their dependencies on public PC at 20Kbps and then taking them homw [07:39] hi I just installed gutsy and enabled multiverse etc in adept, trying to update it and adept keeps gettingstuck at "Waiting for Headers (63%)" anyone know how i could fix it [07:39] k folks, gotta run for half a day's work, then it's weekend time :) [07:39] l8ers :) [07:40] apparle: are you still trying to figure out which version to grab? 32/64? [07:40] intelikey: Nah, just regular Alt + Tab including minimized windows [07:40] snowdonkey: kmenu/system settings/window behavior ? [07:42] waltzingalong: I don't see an option there that applies [07:42] apparle, don't u have internet in your area?? [07:42] xevious: Yes on my friend's behalf [07:42] mrksbrd [07:43] melz, it's not you the servers are getting hammered due to the new version [07:43] mrksbrd it's satalite or dialup here. [07:43] mrksbrd: my parents don't allow me to get a connection [07:43] ah!!!!!....where is here? [07:43] i seem to have 122 processes running it that alot? (former windows user :) ) [07:43] apparle: can you download a small program to test something? [07:43] For example if all the windows are minimized then nothing comes up with Alt + Tab [07:43] melz: You can use torrents it is faster [07:43] apparle: wincpuid will tell you which model cpu it is. [07:43] mrksbrd i'd tell you where "here" is, but then i'd have to kill you... [07:43] hhelp please, anyone knows how to transfer videos to the ipod, i m kkubuntu, sorry my english is bad :( [07:43] lol [07:44] apparle: then you can google that model and see if it's x86-64 [07:44] algun latino?? [07:44] xevious: If both work then which one should I choose [07:45] apparle: if it is a 64 bit chip, then go with amd64 [07:45] * mrksbrd puts on a bullet prrof vest [07:45] claudio: me [07:45] funciona esto? [07:45] mrksbrd heh. like that will stop a 470 [07:45] xevious: but many say that amd 64 has sftware compatibility problems [07:45] hhelp please, anyone knows how to transfer videos to the ipod, i m kkubuntu, sorry my english is bad :( [07:45] apparle: i use amd64 [07:46] que necesitas claudio [07:46] waaaa [07:46] que wena [07:46] * mrksbrd stands beind a 12" thick piece of steel then!!! [07:46] claudio: In fact I'm brazilian [07:46] pense que era como mula esta cuestio del chat [07:46] apparle: the only annoyance was that i needed to fetch ia32libs and install a 32bit firefox in order to get flash [07:46] * intelikey "lost target" [07:46] lol [07:47] apparle: so i guess for simplicity's sake you could do 32bit [07:47] alguien me puede ayudar a configurar la wireles de un notebook? [07:47] but enough of that playing. i do my best to avoid having to "light" anyone up. [07:47] apparle: i'm not sure if there's any real performance difference between the two [07:47] claudio: Qual é o modelo da placa? [07:48] xevious: I will see the compatibilty. Anyway thanks for the help . Really thanks [07:48] la targeta es una broadcom [07:48] claudio: Did you understand english? [07:48] apparle: you're welcome [07:48] casi nada [07:48] de nada [07:49] hrisi: im not sure but according to http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9266 it should just work... [07:49] xevious: I have heard 64bit works faster [07:49] claudio: Você sabe o modelo exato? [07:49] apparle: then go 64bit if it's a 64bit cpu. it's really not hard to get 32bit firefox+flash+java installed and there are great howtos online [07:49] !en [07:50] Hi! I just upgraded to gutsy. I noticed that X11 was really slow, so I enabled compiz (which accellerated it a lot!). But when I try to configure it, ccsm keeps crashing on me ("segmentation fault")... What can I do? [07:50] Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card [07:50] esa es [07:50] intelikey: sorry claudio don't speak english [07:50] thank u oakbox [07:50] estube lesiando como un mes tratando de configurarla en debian [07:50] xevious: alright [07:51] pero no pude [07:51] ahora le puse kubuntu [07:51] apparle: just grab that wincpuid tool [07:51] claudo: join #kubuntu-es [07:51] para ver si puedo [07:51] apparle: if you have trouble figuring out which cpu it is, come back here and i'm sure someone can help you out. [07:51] MurielGodoi yeah i was checking the bot for help on that. but the bot is down. [07:51] muchas GRACIAS!!! [07:51] Can anyone help? [07:52] xevious: Grabbed the tool. I will tell what result I get [07:52] Mithsir sorry, i can't. i'm a console guy. [07:52] Hmm... [07:53] Sorry, I don't know anything about suspend - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [07:54] Mithsir this is not the best time to find help in here. a lot of folks that normally have the answers, seem to have went into release day hidine [07:54] g [07:54] The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are english only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat [07:54] just booted into 7.10 for the first time (after upgrading from 7.04) but there are no wobbly windows [07:54] what am i missing? [07:54] drayen: compiz. [07:54] intelikey: I see... That's too bad :-/. Does anyone else have that problem? [07:54] !compiz | drayen [07:54] drayen: 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 [07:55] ahh ok :) [07:55] thanks [07:55] Mithsir you are the first i saw mention it, but i've not been here very long. [07:55] and wobbly windows is one of the most useless parts of compiz [07:55] expo rules [07:55] hehe [07:55] yeah ok [07:55] Jucato problem solved ? [07:55] and i finally found a use for the set-your-screen-on-fire plugin [07:55] intelikey: sort of... [07:55] Mithsir has a Q [07:55] ... that guy who came in and started flooding before! [07:55] intelikey: I see... [07:56] getting a hold of staffers at this time of day.. not really that easy :) [07:56] ooops [07:56] Mithsir ask jucato [07:56] what's the problem? [07:56] xevious: i was not aware that compiz-fusion was meant to be useful [07:56] * Jucato was about to take his "get well from being sick" nap [07:56] Jucato: ccsm keeps crashing on me, so I can't config compiz... [07:56] WaltzingAlong: expo is useful. zoom is useful [07:57] WaltzingAlong: then you've obviously never actually used it [07:57] oh man.. and it has to be one of the things I know nothing about :( [07:57] WaltzingAlong: and on my system it's faster [07:57] there's a lot of eyecandy, sure [07:57] it wasn't "networking" !!! [07:57] WaltzingAlong: i havent tried grouping and tabbing windows yet, but that seems awesome [07:57] :) [07:57] intelikey: I did say "one of the" :P [07:58] Is there a way to tell the Kmenu to simly rebuild? (Just installed a bunch of stuff with Adept but it doesn't show up) [07:58] WaltzingAlong: and you can write fire grafitti on your desktop. how is that not useful? [07:58] Linus2: update-menus [07:58] but expo, scale, zoom, better window shadowing, those are actually useful [07:58] Linus2: Alt+F2, "kbuildsycoca" [07:58] Linus2 sudo update-menu* [07:58] WaltzingAlong: works only if you have debian menus installed (not really recommended) [07:58] well, then maybe you guys can tell me how I can accellerate my X11 with compiz disabled (it is darn slow w/o compiz)? [07:58] is there a way to see programs you never use? [07:59] Jucato: thanks for updating me [07:59] Jucato: how does one remove debian menus? [07:59] (ie good un install candidates) [07:59] WaltzingAlong: scratch that not really recommended thing. not really sure about that [07:59] how would an average user end up with the debian menu anyway? [07:59] if it's there and does no harm, let it be [07:59] wow [07:59] opening adept manager just crashed X [08:00] the only end-user tool that has it right there available that i know of... is automatix. [08:00] WaltzingAlong having "menu" installed adds the "debian*" submenu to your kmenu some like it some dont. [08:01] xevious is that repetable ? or a fluke ? [08:01] waltzingalong: Finally realized "show window list while switching desktops" was the option I needed in Window Behavior. :) Thx. [08:01] snowdonkey: great. i thought it was there [08:01] intelikey: i think it was an amazingly well timed fluke on behalf of compiz :D [08:02] glad you found it [08:02] I found an oops...streaming music and down loading data creast a break up in the stream [08:02] intelikey: i was singing its praises a little too loudly [08:02] :) [08:02] Mithsir: btw about your compiz problem, you could try asking in #compiz-fusion [08:02] intelikey: aptitude shows i have 'menu' installed and that it was automatically installed. how can i show which package was installed to make this one automatically installed? [08:02] lee__: downloading heavily while listening to streaming music causes said music to be interrupted? [08:02] Jucato: ty, I'll try that [08:02] oh the horror! [08:02] Mithsir: and if you have your video cards restricted/proprietary drivers, it shouldn't be slow [08:03] affirmative [08:03] Jucato: how can it be fast with compiz then? [08:03] lee__: i really try not to say this often, but... duh. [08:03] WaltzingAlong apt-cache --rdepends show blah maybe. the man page knows. [08:03] of course man knows all [08:03] well I never had it happen to me in um ...the um other thing' [08:03] not quite all [08:03] man woman [08:03] but it does happen [08:04] E: no manual for woman [08:04] intelikey: no surprise there [08:04] ah ha so menu got installed when i installed fluxbox. ok [08:04] hmm women are like a sports car....they need a lot of maintiance and a lot of tlc [08:04] there ya go. fluxbox uses menu [08:04] rofl [08:04] lee__: i would recommend throttling your download, especially if you're torrenting [08:04] i think twm does too [08:05] iwasnt i was using the updatier [08:05] that could do it to [08:05] but i am finsihed with it now lol [08:05] too* [08:05] prioritize :) [08:05] trying to find taht gaelic dictinary I once found [08:05] goodnight, i'm not being much help right now [08:06] !info x11vnc > xevious [08:06] WaltzingAlong: i've already got it installed and configured [08:07] ok [08:07] i realized that maybe compiz and vnc weren't compatible [08:07] but i guess that's not the root of my problems [08:08] trunk != root [08:08] WaltzingAlong: my kicker randomly disappears from my first desktop [08:08] Im new to this IRC stuff what do you mean when someone types ! infrount of something? [08:08] WaltzingAlong: X has been crashy [08:08] Oakbox: it is a way to use the ubotu bot. you can message the bot to test it out. /msg ubotu !kubuntu [08:08] Oakbox the channel bot watches for lines that begin with ! and searches for info accordingly [08:09] What is the recommended driver for a radeon card then? [08:09] ah found it [08:09] Mithsir: whichever works for you. which device do you have specifically? you could use any of vesa, ati, or fglrx [08:09] Oakbox other than that, it's computer code for NOT like != is not equal [08:10] does kubuntu get the upgrades that ubuntu also gets? or does kubuntu run separately? [08:10] aka, kubuntu is developed separately [08:10] Oakbox lots of times you'll see something like !ntfs-3g mentioned which is saying that the infonode from ubotu will help i.e. [08:10] !ntfs-3g [08:10] ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions [08:10] WaltzingAlong: not sure. Xorg.log sais "ATI Radeon X1300/X1550 Series". [08:10] intelikey: hehe thanks :) i knew the programming one [08:11] Y3k: many of the pieces underneath that are the same get updated together [08:11] hmm I think its commy cast having issues [08:11] Mithsir: how well does the 'ati' driver perform for you? otherwise you could install the fglrx proprietory one === benjamin is now known as gs3user [08:11] Oakbox yeah you find that irc is a melting pot of normal language computer language and pure geek [08:12] WaltzingAlong: currently, I use the fglrx, but it is really slow when I don't run compiz... [08:12] intelikey: thanks alot :) hehe i will have to experiment [08:12] WaltzingAlong, so the only difference is gnome and kde differences right? [08:12] Y3k: right [08:12] np Oakbox [08:12] Y3k, ubuntu is the backbone behind Kubuntu, KDE enviromnent is just applied over it to make Kubuntu [08:13] Which one should i use ubuntu or kubuntu [08:13] Y3k: for me it makes sense to think about them as "ubuntuG" "ubuntuK" and "ubuntuX" all ubuntu with gnome, kde, and xfce [08:13] apparle you want gnome or kde installed by default ? [08:13] apparle, Stubuntu [08:13] apparle decide whether you like kde or gnome [08:13] BRB. [08:13] yea, so it is possible to run both G and K in the same install right? [08:13] both are cool [08:13] Y3k, yes [08:14] Y3k: you could have them both installed. when you log in, select which session you want to start gnome or kde [08:14] Y3k absotivly [08:14] !hmm the temprature thing no wirky for my computer [08:14] stubuntu? i thought it's called edubuntu [08:14] i mean posolutly [08:14] i'm off to bed [08:14] g'night folks [08:14] apparle i do a commandline install, then kde-core, then add the other stuff I want/need [08:14] Y3k....was a joke [08:14] :D [08:14] Y3k: if you have one install the other through installing the package 'ubuntu-desktop' or 'kubuntu-desktop' [08:14] and there's xubuntu which is xfce [08:15] ah ok [08:15] or xubuntu-desktop [08:15] thanks [08:15] what i do is start with ubuntu, install it [08:15] then do ubuntu-server [08:15] then xubuntu-desktop [08:15] So, I am back with a reeally slow X usign the fglrx driver. [08:16] THEN finally so i get the kubuntu-desktop stuff all defaulted... install kubuntu-desktop [08:16] :-p [08:16] Mithsir: interesting that it would be so slow. which xserver are you using? [08:16] akrill: :d [08:16] akrill, yea sorta....something like that....lol [08:16] and there is my favorite. for Q in `dpkg -l | cut -d ' ' -f 3` ;do apt-get -y remove --purge $Q ;done :))) [08:17] WaltzingAlong: how can I find out? I think its the default one... [08:17] i live for system bloat [08:17] lol [08:17] then u have project looking glass [08:17] WaltzingAlong: I also have ugly graphic glitches, btw. [08:17] btw, whats the difference between the CD and DVD isos? [08:17] Mithsir: use adept manager, search for xserver and check to show just installed packages [08:18] akrill a buck two ninty five [08:18] akrill: dvd contains more packages and languages and can be either install from cli or run live [08:18] akrill, dvd has most of the progs/packages on disk, vs cd where alot u have to d/l [08:18] installed* [08:19] ah i see [08:19] when trying to update to gutsy, apt wants to install 127 new packages and consume 988 more megabyte space, is that normal? and how to prevent it, i don't have that much space [08:19] akrill ok sorry it a buck two ninty seven my bad. [08:19] lol [08:20] Exilant: eventually those will get installed over what you have already so the space is just temp during download [08:20] Exilant, they are security updates & fixes....suggest a bigger HDD [08:20] can kaffiene play .flv [08:20] WaltzingAlong: I have xserver-xorg and xserver-xgl (maybe the later one is run?). [08:20] WaltzingAlong: how do I switch between them? [08:20] Mithsir: i can understand that it will be slow hrough xserver-xgl [08:21] Exilant you need to either remove some packages first, or free some space. or my favorite, "dont upgrade" [08:21] my god after 4hrs of downloading my updates are almost done [08:21] WaltzingAlong, mrksbrd: No, it really does use that much additional space, not just temporary, and actually some pretty insane packages [08:21] yahoo [08:22] Can kaffiene play .flv files [08:22] hi, i just wanted to know if the RT61 default 7.10 drivers actually work? [08:22] BRB [08:22] it will show a d/l size & install size in adept mgr on the right bottom [08:22] or will i need to use the tarball in gibbon? [08:22] intelikey: yes, good favourite, should have sticked to it [08:22] Exilant: it needs to download that much but then most of the packages you have will be updated with the downloaded versions - the new files copied over the old [08:22] apparle: mplayer and vlc to the rescue! [08:23] Well, I just removed xserver-xgl, now I get decent speed [08:23] WaltzingAlong: Will it play if libxine1-ffmpeg and libxine-extracodecs installed [08:24] Thanks for now. cya. [08:24] apt-get ... 929 upgraded, 174 newly installed, 6 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Need to get 1164MB of archives. After unpacking 986MB of additional disk space will be used. [08:24] apparle: ffmpeg can play it sure [08:24] GU MATH OIDHCHE [08:25] no one uses ralink wireless cards? [08:25] WaltzingAlong: So i will be able to play it with kaffiene [08:26] Exilant, yep then 986 of disk space will be used.....what the heck version u have? [08:26] oops sorry wrong area..eh it means okwell, night [08:26] hello, I have an xorg problem: "AUDIT X: client 1 rejected from local host (uid 1000)" [08:26] * WaltzingAlong thinks so [08:26] mrksbrd: feisty... latest update [08:26] it works as root, so i suspect i don't have the right permissions, but I really don't know where to look [08:26] from a fresh install? [08:27] I seem to have a wird prolem with Compiz... If i select number of desktops as 4 i get 8.... any ideas? [08:27] robewald|work what generated that error ? [08:27] well, freshly reinstalled when feisty came out afair [08:27] !compiz [08:27] mrksbrd: For upgrade to gutsy which is better ,update from CD or fresh install, I don't have net [08:28] intelikey: startx /usr/bin/xterm from my normal account(uid 1000) it works as root [08:28] apparle, your only option is CD then [08:28] * SilentDis pokes ubotu [08:28] it work before (i am on feisty still) and i did a security update this morning [08:28] then it stopped working [08:28] robewald|work try just running X and see if it does the same [08:28] !compiz [08:29] grrr, i need that infobit! lol === gs3user is now known as GS3User007 [08:29] mrksbrd: What about fresh install [08:29] testing [08:29] w00t [08:29] robewald|work sounds like Xorg may have lost it's suid possably [08:30] apparle, depends on how much stuff you'd be willing to loose, if u don't have much then do a fresh install [08:30] intelikey: X works, I get the strippled background. but no clients can connect to the x server [08:30] s/loose/lose [08:31] mrksbrd: Will packages like kaffeiene or k3b get upgraded if I upgrade from CD [08:31] robewald|work did you try running something like xterm --display:0 as the same user to see if it errored or not ? [08:31] luckily you stuck /home on its own partition so you can just format / then mount /home back, keeping all your stuff [08:31] anyone with RT61 wirelss pci card success on gibbon ? [08:32] grrr... anyone have the linky for the 'proper' compiz/compiz-fusion setup routine for Kubuntu 7.10? ubotu doesn't wanna talk to me. :( [08:32] I wonder how hard it would be to make a bit torrent type repo system the update is insanely slow. [08:32] the-erm: there's work going on for apt-torrent now [08:32] the-erm: some of us installed last week or two days before 'the big release' [08:32] apparle, it will update everything needed [08:32] ok [08:33] SilentDis: that's cool. It's definitely needed. [08:33] clap clap WoW style updates [08:33] secondly, now that gibbon is final, is it still recommended to check "pre release" updates to update to gibbon? should i uncheck it once its done? [08:34] robewald|work ok. if Xorg will work, and startx wont then the startx script may be calling the wrong executable. ls -l /etc/X11/X make sure it's a symlink to /usr/bin/Xorg [08:35] intelikey: verified, /etc/X11/X links to /usr/bin/Xorg [08:35] david_: to upgrade to gutsy, yes i think so (having pre release/proposed checked) but after gutsy is installed it could be unchecked [08:35] ok and /usr/bin/X is -rwsr-sr-x correct? [08:36] intelikey: yes [08:36] the-erm: another option is to pull *ubuntu-alternate cd for your platform, and perform the upgrade that way. the torrents for those are out there [08:36] WaltzingAlong: thanks heaps! [08:36] robewald|work hmmm. will startx run with out any args ? [08:37] SilentDis: Oddly enough I'm downloading that cd, and the desktop - just in case - right now [08:37] how to play realplayer files like .rmvb on kaffiene [08:37] * SilentDis opens ktorrent and seeds out desktop for the-erm :) [08:37] I'm actually almost done with the download SilentDis [08:38] So no worries. [08:38] brb, time to stir the soup :) [08:38] no, same error, but /usr/bin/xinit works and gives me an xterm [08:38] robewald|work then i'll have to assume that your startx script is hosed [08:39] how to play realplayer files like .rmvb on kaffiene [08:39] goodnight all [08:39] intelikey: maybe not, that same error also appears when I want to log in from kdm.

[10:08] WaltzingAlong: should it give some extra update option on startup? [10:08] flaccid: ah yea, you're right. they stopped desktop guide. i remember being told that on the doc-team mailing list. [10:08] ScorpKing: hell yeah its so fast omg i love it [10:08] i offered to fix, but the doc team are closed minded and ignorant and only want a topic based system ie. wiki plus in kde [10:08] thanks [10:08] posingaspopular, yeah i argued with them on that list about that [10:09] nah i agree [10:09] there SHOULD be a desktop guide [10:09] if there was a definitive guide it would solve many problems, but they prefer duplication, redundancy, unofficial, untested documentation... [10:10] and they won't budge on it. one day i might make my own guide but yeah [10:10] rand_acs: the bottom of the http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading page tells how to upgrade from the alternate cd [10:10] flaccid: yea i joined the doc team to try and fix that sort of stuff, but it doesn't seem to be that I can do anything [10:10] so im going to see what happens during hardy [10:11] lol you did the same thing as me pretty much. its not that democratic when you just have certain people say no and thats it... [10:11] posingaspopular, um nothing will happen lol [10:11] flaccid: i know some of big doc people though, we have lunch and stuff. and i'll see what happens [10:11] like who, nixternal? [10:11] flaccid: if you want to do a kubuntu desktop guide, like they used to have,i'll hep out [10:12] ding ding ding. we hang out once a month or two [10:12] anybody wanna help a newbie get up and running [10:12] and i had lunch with j-jesse once too [10:12] LiL-JoN: shot [10:12] shoot [10:12] posingaspopular, thats what i proposed, he just said it was wrong and not a good idea basically. maybe you can talk some sense into him [10:12] chakie_work: Still interested in the solution? [10:12] i'll kick him in the head on sunday [10:13] he's very opiniated [10:13] 'we are moving to a topic based system' that um err nobody really knows about and is offline um so err [10:13] yeah he doesn't fit into the open source model imho ah well [10:13] (he's a republican if you cant tell) [10:13] posingaspopular: ill try donig it myself then if it doesnt work ill ask here for help [10:13] not everyone is a yank you know.. [10:13] sure im up all night [10:13] oh thats right, yanks think the world is the US... :p [10:14] flaccid: yea that is more dev oriented. which the kubuntu guys fit into [10:14] and CLI and stuff like that [10:14] i wanted something like the freebsd handbook that covers all and is written in an appropriate style [10:14] having no manual for something is ridiculous imho [10:15] flaccid: yea i agree [10:15] like Xubuntu didn't have ANY docs until feisty [10:15] excellent :) [10:15] i helped a bit with that too [10:15] reading for grammar etc. [10:15] it's ridicolous [10:15] hmm.... did anyone else's keyboard volume controls stop working in Gutsy? [10:16] it is detected, but it doesn't change the volume. [10:16] yeah and in terms of kubuntu, its pretty bleak.... i offered it to the doc team, just like you and now thats why it doesn't exist because they said no [10:17] Road_kill: yea i saw that bug reported elsewhere [10:17] awwwwww boourns [10:18] !help [10:18] I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [10:18] !docs [10:18] documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com [10:18] i hate hearing things like that [10:19] not even a kubuntu specific entry for doco with ubotu.. [10:19] hello [10:19] see even those docs are 7.04 [10:19] I need some help ugrading to gutsy [10:19] yeah its a joke.. [10:19] misha: gnome or kde? [10:19] kde [10:19] commercial distro my ass :) [10:20] how do you perform a kernel update? [10:20] i ran the upload tool last night, and when I woke up it seems it just crashed [10:20] E_mE, via adept or apt-get [10:20] (I left it while it was downloading packages) [10:20] flaccid: it says i have to "You have to recompile the kernel module after each kernel update" [10:21] what says that? [10:21] now i can see that all the packages have been downloaded, but not installed [10:21] in respect to which kernel module? [10:21] flaccid: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide [10:21] and when I run the update tool, it just crashes [10:21] flaccid: about 3/4 way down [10:21] oh thats 3rd party guide... [10:21] that was a strange crash :S [10:21] * flaccid goes to look [10:21] can I continue the upgrade myself (from the console) [10:21] misha: sudo dpkg --config -a [10:22] which mod are you talking about. if its nvidia then yeah [10:22] that should get all the packages in line [10:22] flaccid: ati [10:22] kernel mods are compiled against the kernel version, so when you update the kernel, you need to recompile the mod [10:22] well yeah you reinstall as its kernel based driver (blob) [10:23] how just reboot ?!?!?! [10:23] sudo reboot [10:23] posingaspopular: that command reports errors [10:23] or goto the menu [10:23] thanx [10:23] thats if you were asking how to reboot [10:23] ah, thats why i got so many errors earlier [10:23] no recompiling kernel [10:24] it doesnt have a command how to do it though :/ [10:24] you don't need to recompile the kernel [10:24] only the mod which comes from the restricted driver [10:24] can i do a dist-upgrade from the console? will that help? [10:24] flaccid: im confused if i need to do anything here! or just carry on with what the guide says [10:24] misha: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [10:25] im going ahead and rebooting as it says [10:25] E_mE, just do what the guide says.. it has the instructions. you are talking about compiling the module, not the kernel itself... this is done using module-assistant [10:25] can somebody help me make a nick name defualt in konversation [10:25] you might want to apt-get upgrade before you dist-upgrade though. those two commands handle dependencies differently, iirc [10:25] what is the best audio device for KDE? [10:25] flaccid: i apprisate your pasients :) thank you [10:25] np y0 [10:25] cause i get alot of "xine parameters" are busy [10:25] even though no music is playing [10:26] posingaspopular: thanks [10:26] Road_kill: amarok [10:27] btw, the cd's script bugs out on me [10:27] does anyone know how the upgrade tool works tho? [10:28] um..... weird ass logging out happening [10:28] out of no where, i get loggedo ut [10:28] booo [10:28] hmmm i guess gutsy looks like another buggy production release, as usual [10:29] it's complaining about DistUpgradeViewGtk and DistUpgradeViewKDE not found [10:29] dang [10:30] hmm should have stayed with Fiesty [10:30] anyone else's KDE sluggish? [10:30] this is when I go: "sudo sh /cdrom/cdromupdate", the instructions on the update page just does nothing, I assume it's giving the same error [10:30] Road_kill: not at all mine is super quick no lag at all [10:30] hmm [10:30] maybe it is the XGL server that boots up initially [10:31] Road_kill: even when i drag windows it doesnt leave a trail like in feisty [10:31] I might do a reinstall, I've played around with this thing probably a little to much ;p [10:31] hmm [10:31] maybe it is just my comparison to compiz [10:31] which uses hardware acceleration [10:32] anybody want to help me install compiz fusion in a sec [10:32] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz-fusion 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 [10:32] WaltzingAlong: what would i do without you [10:32] jon_: I dunno whether it is worth it [10:32] flaccid: im getting error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared obhject file: no such file or directory?!? [10:32] I currently tried it out === jon_ is now known as LiL-JoN [10:33] is the ugrading tool supposed to take long to dl? [10:33] RytmenPinnen: probably lots of files and the dist was just released so servers are likely busy [10:33] E_mE, thats common/related as well. check forums/google. it could just be a missing symlink, i can't remember exactly [10:33] Rytmen: change the server you are using [10:34] I'm on a finnish mirror atm [10:34] oh [10:34] then i dunno [10:34] flaccid: also ATI driver is leaving traces around the screen :S [10:34] does anyone else have the "version upgrade" constantly in their adept manager? [10:34] actually brb [10:35] road_kill: known issue [10:36] ok sweet, finally everything is as it is suppose to be. [10:36] silly compiz-fusion [10:36] got to wait until it is more stable [10:37] flaccid: fixed... thank you for ALL your help :) [10:37] anybody know how to mount a harddrive? [10:37] E_mE, oh great. no worries mate [10:38] road_kill: known issue [10:38] !fstab | LiL-JoN [10:38] flaccid: nothing popped up lol [10:38] Walt: Yup, figured it out hte hardway. [10:38] Road_kill: i am not sure how stable compiz-fusion will be with kde as focus is on kde4 which will include these types of effects [10:38] i have to edit the fstab file? [10:38] Walt: Sweet, I can't wait for KDE4 [10:40] anybody know this problem [10:40] damg [10:40] its on the wiki [10:41] i right click on my hardrive to mount it and i get the error hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000 [10:41] oh not good === Mez is now known as Mez|Away [10:43] check if nouser is in the options for that partition in fstab === Mez|Away is now known as Mez [10:48] LiL-JoN: have a look here http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-425085.html and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions [10:49] salve a tutti [10:49] gerry_: buongiorno [10:50] (same here) http://ubuntu.etherkiller.de/ (Located in Munich, IPv6 and IPv4 connectivity) [10:50] ciao [10:50] ho una domanda da fare a qualcuno che abbia il tempo di rispondermi ...

[10:53] /etc [10:54] LiL-JoN: /etc/fstab [10:54] at /etc/fstab ;p [10:54] Road_kill: should be in the tray next to the clock on the panel. just click there, type something [10:55] ugh i always get this WHY? http://pastebin.com/m22564167 [10:55] Walt: No tray over here [10:56] but it does open in kate [10:57] LiL-JoN, change the ownership of the files in question to root [10:57] but i'm thinking that you can't run kdesu from cli [10:57] not sure why [10:57] flaccid: how can i make it so i own every file [10:57] you might have to do sudo kdesu kate /etc/fstab [10:57] LiL-JoN: not desired [10:58] ill try that [10:58] sudo -s [10:58] then you're the super user [10:58] How do I get AVI/MPG/WMV previews appear in Dolphin instead of just kaffeine icons :\ [10:58] LiL-JoN: otherwise sudo chown jon:jon *.* -R but do not do it [10:58] LiL-JoN, using chown, but you don't wanna do that. your system will not work. [10:58] sudo: /etc/fstab: command not found [10:58] yeah you dont have to own the files, just change into the superuser with sudo -s [10:58] LiL-JoN: need a program to edit it like vim or kate [10:59] ok [10:59] nano is easy for a new user [10:59] i still go those errors [10:59] got* [10:59] or yeah, kate [10:59] can everybody help me to get my microphone works on gutsy [10:59] maybe its sudo "kdesu kate /etc/fstab" . but im not sure why its doing that. try going to alt + f2 and running kdesu kate /etc/fstab and make sure that root pass is set [11:00] LiL-JoN: try sudo nano /etc/fstab [11:00] i think he wants gui text editor like kate [11:00] LiL-JoN, is this gutsy ? [11:00] flaccid: yes [11:00] flaccid: but i got these errors in 7.04 too [11:00] well .......... [11:01] that could be the problem because i've never had that problem before doing that [11:01] LiL-JoN, was it same install but [11:01] you generally get those problems trying sudo with a gui program [11:01] * Jucato tries to scroll up to see the conversation [11:01] anybody know how to solve the kinit can not find an image to resume problem at boot? it drops me in shell (after which startx works but that still is annoying :P ) [11:01] not kdesu with a gui program from cli [11:02] oh... [11:02] Jucato: can you help me with mounting problems [11:02] LiL-JoN: kdesu to launch a gui program; sudo to launch a cli program (both to obtain superuser-like rights) [11:02] I can try... (although I doubt it.. :() ) [11:02] Kopete crashes when logging in to MSN with Gutsy. Anyone seen that too? [11:02] known bug, fix is on the way [11:02] chx: yeah that has been addressed [11:02] kopete crashing on gutsy? already addressed; check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/153500 and toward the bottom are downloads (the updates will be available in the normal repositories when they have been thawed) [11:03] thawed... hahah!

[11:34] LiL-JoN: ive tried that, same problem still [11:34] Jucato: nv doesnt work either :/ [11:35] Phlosten: kopete crashing on gutsy? already addressed; check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/153500 and toward the bottom are downloads (the updates will be available in the normal repositories when they have been thawed) [11:35] dang im assuming you have 2 boxes [11:35] nexano: ok in that case, "vesa" [11:35] :D [11:35] Jucato: cheers [11:35] got a laptop and normal one LiL-JoN yeah [11:36] Jucato: sure vesa works, but i kinda wanted to actually be able to use my video card properly :/ [11:36] yeah at least now you can browse and search for the answer right? :) [11:36] nexano: once you use vesa we can help you further [11:36] Jucato: like ive been doing the past few hours yeah :P [11:36] this is a last resort [11:36] Jucato: someone's busy ;p i need to kick the tooth fairy in the head. night [11:36] g'night posingaspopular! [11:37] nexano: I'm not sure why "nv" wouldn't work though [11:37] !bye [11:37] Sorry, I know nothing about that - try http://help.ubuntu.com/community/ [11:37] it's the free nvidia driver [11:37] I just updated and now when i run midnight commander (and other curses like stuff) in konsole its just sluggish. what is that? [11:37] i'll try to come into the chands more for the next month or two until open week and all the bugs/ help gets sorted [11:37] Jucato: the ati driver didnt work for me [11:37] LiL-JoN: im on vesa right now, havent installed the nvidia drivers yet [11:37] holler at cha boy LiL-JoN [11:37] oh and when I enable the beryl window manager it goes away... [11:38] nexano: install restrice drivers [11:38] nexano: when you installed the nvidia drivers (nvidia-glx-new?) did you also install linux-restricted-modules-generic? [11:38] how do i auto-start compiz every time i boot ? [11:38] nexano: if you're on gutsy btw, you can just use the Restricted Drivers manager [11:38] Jucato: i didnt install linux-restricted-modules-generic no [11:38] that would be the problem [11:38] (although I can't still understand why"nv" wouldn't work) [11:39] Jucato: the free ati drivers didnt work for me [11:39] ... alright. how do i disable xgl again? [11:39] LiL-JoN: yeah. but that's ATI. no surprise there :P [11:40] nexano: run "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic" [11:40] Jucato: im on gutsy aye, but restricted drivers also gave me the black screen [11:40] !hi | ScorpKing [11:40] ScorpKing: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! [11:40] hiya! [11:40] lol [11:40] nexano: try them again [11:41] linux-restricted-modules-generic is already the newest version. [11:41] hm... [11:41] Jucato: have any idea what his problem is [11:41] nexano: which nvidia package did you install? [11:42] none right now [11:42] but ive tried the restrocted, nvidia-glx-new and envy [11:42] so you haven't tested yet? :) [11:42] i think the best way to install nvidia drivers is to install "envy" and let envy do the rest of the work [11:42] gah! bug! must... squash [11:42] well you need nvidia-glx + linux-restricted-modules-generic [11:42] !envy [11:43] 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! [11:43] havent tested what? :p [11:43] kinda got lost in the wall of text [11:43] nexano: tested using nvidia-glx (or nvidia-glx-new) but making sure the linux-restricted-modules-generic is installed [11:43] well my terminal says linux-restricted-modules-generic is installed [11:44] newest version [11:44] best to avoid !envy and !automatix. it may work for you but it may not and when not, support is not provided here [11:44] (for envy or automatix) [11:44] q. is there a way to prevent the logout popup window from having the 'weird fading effect' in the background ? [11:44] so . i rebooted, and brightness control still does not work. how could I debug this? [11:44] nexano: ok, so now try to install nvidia-glx (or nvidia-glx-new, depending on your card) [11:44] allright sec [11:44] zorglu_: yes. can you hold on while I get the link [11:45] Jucato: thanks. [11:45] Jucato: keep the strengh :) my admiration to you in this release week :) [11:45] Jucato: 7800 = new?

[11:47] stdin had to take most of the work [11:47] stupid dailup connection. :P [11:47] dang that sucks [11:47] why is konsole slow like i was using a 14.4er modem and gnome-terminal works with curses interfaces? [11:48] zorglu_: um.. hold on for a bit more? I found the file to edit, but forgot the values to put there [11:48] Jucato: ok i dont need it now. i will come back in one or 2 week :) [11:48] Jucato: keep on the good work. always amazed by how helpfull you stay after all this time :) [11:48] rawr! I need to find it anyway [11:49] Jucato: ok so i installed the driver [11:50] nexano: then run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" [11:50] and take note of the filename of the backup copy it made of xorg.conf [11:51] hi [11:51] allright, now what? :P [11:51] is there a Kubuntu.org bleeding edge KDE repro for gutsy? [11:51] nexano: logout and restart X. if you have problems, use vesa again [11:51] can only find fesity ones [11:52] lokpest: gutsy has KDE 3.5.8 [11:52] mike: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs [11:52] yeah [11:52] pong [11:52] 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 [11:52] all: Hi!

[12:04] hi everyone :) [12:05] well, i am in the process of upgrading from ff to gutsy ... on my 24" iMac... at the install part of the process now... It only took about 20 minutes to download all the packages - i was shocked... [12:05] dystopianray: its great [12:05] LiL-JoN: in what way? [12:05] It looks like it is going to take about an hour to install the pkgs though [12:05] easy to work with [12:06] nice looking [12:06] dystopianray: youll see when you install gutsy [12:06] arkygeek, you have new iMac or old white type? [12:06] LiL-JoN: I have installed gutsy [12:06] both - but am installing it on the 'old' one [12:07] yeo_: the nvidia should be ok i think hey? [12:07] Hey guys, I'm having trouble with compiz, I started it and my title bars have gone, I've ran the command from troubleshooting "sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24", and I'm getting errors unrecognized options [12:07] yeah, nvidia provide good driver support for linux [12:07] why do you want to run linux...when you have osx! ;) [12:07] yeo_: i am about 50% more productive in linux [12:08] fair enough. you dev? [12:08] dystopianray: then what do you think of dolphin [12:08] yeo_: however, when i want to work with pictures, movies, web, etc.... guess where i go :P [12:08] the only place [12:08] yeo_: yeah, pretty green still, but yeah... [12:08] LiL-JoN: I'm not sure if I like it, it's a huge change to a fundamental part of kde [12:08] my powerbook is broke at the moment. so im on my pc [12:09] i think dolphin is great [12:09] dolphin doesn't have tree mode [12:09] yeah i liked the konquerer but this is way better [12:09] and dolphin doesn't support ioslaves [12:09] arkygeek, how good is the hardware support from ubuntu for intel macs? i know it was kinda sucky with some things on PPC [12:09] yeo_: people get so confused when they see my iMac lol... i have baghira installed, kiba-dock, and beryl with an osx theme... hehe [12:10] heh [12:10] EVERYTHING works on this machinne. even the remote. it was dead easy to set up [12:10] sweet [12:10] when i get an intel mac ill be running VMware fusion [12:10] yeo_: i just hope Gutsy works as well... (it is my production box, so I am kinda taking a risk...) [12:10] hmm [12:10] is anyone else experiencing problems with kopete (specifically with msn)? [12:11] mmartin, yes. there is a fix for it [12:11] mmartin: it segfaults with msn there is a fix though [12:11] arkygeek: run the live cd and see if everything works [12:11] theres a fix *already*? wow they work fast [12:11] LiL-JoN: heh - too late... I am mostly through the upgrade === Tstnz is now known as pizzicato` [12:11] mmartin: sure [12:11] kopete crashing on gutsy with msn? already addressed; check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/153500 and toward the bottom are downloads (the updates will be available in the normal repositories when they have been thawed) [12:11] mmartin: an unofficial deb from a link in a bug report [12:11] arkygeek: sucks if it doesnt work cant you just reinstall feisty [12:12] WaltzingAlong: when will they be thawed? [12:12] thanks :D [12:12] dystopianray: i do not know how long the wait is [12:12] LiL-JoN: well, in theory you can set apt to allow downgrades, but I'm not so sure it is a good idea. one question though.... is there a kernel update? [12:12] i think i am 2.6.20 [12:12] http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb [12:12] yes [12:12] oh boy === emilsedgh_ is now known as emilsedgh [12:13] wait maybe not arkygeek but there was for me [12:13] 2.6.20-16-generic [12:13] thats me [12:13] LiL-JoN: what does uname -r give you? [12:14] has anyone tried virtualbox in gutsy? apparently it has problems with the tickless kernel? [12:14] lol libsexy2 ????? :-) hehe [12:14] arkygeek: 2.6.22-14-generic [12:14] oh boy...... [12:14] LiL-JoN: kernel updates always scare me [12:14] arkygeek: why? [12:14] LiL-JoN: because they cause problems... [12:15] hi everyone, I have installed gutsy and in adept, I enabled teh universe n multiverse repos and when I go to reload, adept gets stuck on "Waiting for Headers (40%)" and doesnt move, still the same after rebooting, and changing servers etc, anyone know what might be causing this [12:15] arkygeek: dont worry [12:15] LiL-JoN: especially if you have to compile your sound drivers against the kernel source and stuff.... [12:15] (like i did) [12:15] but, mayeb it will work [12:15] * arkygeek remains optimistic [12:15] stupidgirl: lots of people still downloading? [12:16] arkygeek: my ati card and my sound card (i forget what it is) always has problems installin but gutsy installed no problem everythign worked so you should have no prob [12:17] WaltzingAlong: i've tried different servers n stuff, I tried a few hours ago and I'm trying again now, surely if ewere only due to lots of ppl downloading, it would just be reallly slow, not keep stalling at 40% constantly [12:17] well my msn now works. thanks for your help [12:17] stupidgirl: another route is to get on the torrent for the dvd (or alternate cd) then upgrade from the iso [12:18] WaltzingAlong: i have the gutsy cd, dowloaded it last night as soon as it came out, I'm just trying to get teh extra software stuff from repos === Thirsteh` is now known as Thirsteh [12:18] stupidgirl: oh so you are already on gutsy. seems to be timing out while grabbing off of one server [12:19] could be a router issue for all we know (thus far) [12:19] WaltzingAlong: yah ok I tried different servers n stuff, o wellz. [12:19] is there a download tracker somewhere? it would be interesting to know how many times gutsy has been downloaded since it was released [12:21] Hi, how do i remove all the kubuntu settings and stuffs like applications, and then configure the media codecs in GNOME?\ [12:22] robinl: go to #ubuntu [12:22] what are you actually trying to do robinl ? [12:24] wilson: switching to gnome [12:25] apt-get install gnome [12:25] choose gnome as your session on bootup [12:25] Hey, I'm having some trouble with compiz, I've rebooted my pc and now the graphical desktop won't load, how can I disable compiz through the cmd prompt? [12:26] * wilson shrugs [12:27] you didn't install kde4 stuff did you yammeh ? [12:27] wilson: yeah but the menu's in gnome are filled up with KDE apps [12:27] Not afaik, just a standard installation of gutsy === ubuntu__ is now known as crazy_bus [12:28] And then I followed the directions on the link in !compiz [12:28] has anyone installed the nvidia kernel on a fresh install of gutsy? [12:28] Yammeh: how far do you get? the graphical log in manager? [12:29] nvidia kernal deb* [12:29] yammeh, edit the compiz stuff out of ~/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrrc [12:29] When it boots up all I see is a flashing "_", doesn't get any further, but I can use the other prompts (alt+f2 etc) [12:29] is there any safe way to upgrade from feisty to guitsy [12:29] thx/wc [12:29] ksivaji: [12:29] yes [12:29] upgrading kubuntu? from feisty (7.04) be sure software-properties-kde is installed (sudo aptitude install software-properties-kde) then follow the upgrade instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade [12:29] hi, what is the md5sum for kubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso ? [12:30] I installed a core2duo with intel g965 graphics card. But it seems to be randomly freezing when using firefox and blender3d. The numlock and capslock lights flash and the mouse stops moving. Other times the screen goes back with only the mouse remaining. ctrl+alt+F1 does nothing. What to do? [12:30] I didn't found anywhere [12:30] wilson: yeah but the menu's in gnome are filled up with KDE apps === luke__ is now known as _luke_ [12:31] robinl: of course [12:31] zucco: http://releases.ubuntu.com.ba/kubuntu/gutsy/MD5SUMS [12:31] you can get rid of kde i guess by doing apt-get remove kde === mark__ is now known as mph [12:31] but other than that you'll have to remove each app you see on the menu [12:31] zucco: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/7.10/MD5SUMS [12:31] guten tag [12:31] thank you [12:31] wilson: hmm [12:31] i dunno why you would but, kde has the best apps, like k3b [12:32] guten. wie geht's [12:32] wilson: yeah, i guess i'll be keeping some apps [12:32] zucco: I believe it should be the last of the four md5sums [12:32] will gutsy stop the core2duo and intel graphics freezing? [12:32] i'm switching to gnome mainly because ubuntu supports it more [12:32] <_luke_> Hey - I seem to not get the option to do an in-place upgrade to Kubuntu 7.10 in adept? [12:32] upgrading kubuntu? from feisty (7.04) be sure software-properties-kde is installed (sudo aptitude install software-properties-kde) then follow the upgrade instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade _luke_ [12:32] <_luke_> My system is completely up-to-date, but the version upgrade button doesn't appear [12:32] _luke_: ^^ read my post - probably need software-properties-kde === sbucatino_ is now known as Bucatoamano [12:33] <_luke_> WaltzingAlong: thanks I'll give it a try [12:33] so - is upgrading to gutsy mostly smooth or have people reported unusual problems? [12:33] _luke_: which version do you have now? feisty (7.04)? cat /etc/lsb-release also when following the instructions, be sure to use the quotes like in the instructions [12:34] wilson: i'm switching to gnome mainly because ubuntu supports it more. I know i prefer KDE though [12:34] it also has much better support for desktop effects [12:34] DexterF: two issues: need to follow instructions (completely) and instructions seem to infer that everyone has already installed software-properties-kde [12:35] robinl: compiz-fusion was made for gnome and less work has been focused with that on kde because kde4 will include already similar effects [12:35] WaltzingAlong: um, *which* instructions?Ä I intended to give adept a try [12:35] that's cool, robinl, good luck. i know i prefer some gnome apps, like synaptic is a better package management app over adept, adept annoys me [12:35] robinl: know how u feel... [12:35] how long should the gutsy install be on the "Scanning the mirror option" It's been stuck on it for around 20 minutes so far [12:35] wilson: yeah, adept crashes on me all the time, and is clumsy :P [12:35] DexterF: um the ones in the topic? [12:35] upgrading kubuntu? from feisty (7.04) be sure software-properties-kde is installed (sudo aptitude install software-properties-kde) then follow the upgrade instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade [12:35] <_luke_> WaltzingAlong: 7.04 - seems I didn't have "Pre-release updates" selected (I don't think that was mentioned when I tried last night)... giving it another go now [12:36] heya [12:36] err [12:36] _luke_: in one of jriddell's pictures it shows prerelease updates is checked (and needs to be checked) [12:36] robinl: i prefer KDE too, but am shocked how many people support Gnome.. and Ubuntu.. its almost like Kubuntu doesnt exist the way Ubuntu keep popup on the web [12:36] whats the command thats run on start up to show the battery meter? [12:36] strange. As soon as I posted that it started working :) [12:36] news etc [12:36] i got rid of it.. and now i want it back [12:37] <_luke_> WaltzingAlong: ok trying now [12:37] i dunno why they went with dolphin, i prefer konq [12:37] ? [12:37] Assid: guidance-power-manager? [12:37] wilson: i also prefer konq [12:37] sam_: yeah so i get the feeling i am kinda forced to use Ubuntu [12:37] wilson: you can use konqueror in place of dolphin. right mouse click a folder, select open with, select konqueror and click remember this app [12:38] yeah i know WaltzingAlong konq is really good in 7.10 [12:38] sam_: and it's getting better and better all the time, though kde 4 will be a blast i think [12:38] it's fast, it's got tabs, it seems to be able to browse to most sites without problems [12:38] thanks WaltzingAlong [12:38] robinl: sad really.. and KDE is way more powerful... [12:38] sam_: hmm, yeah [12:39] robinl: true dat! can't wait 4 KDE4 [12:39] konq is much improved in gutsy? [12:39] sam_: although i know the first final release of KDE 4 isn't going to be stable [12:39] at least, i think so [12:39] yeo_: whats mostly improved in Konqui? [12:39] i dunno, i havent bothered installing firefox [12:39] WaltzingAlong: for some strange reason it doesnt go to the task bar.. its sitting on top left corner === drif_ is now known as drif [12:39] stability.. take time... [12:40] robinl: ..will probably stabilize after 4.1... [12:40] how 2 uninstall things from console [12:40] and reinstall [12:40] i think adept is screwed up or somethin [12:40] I've just formatted my computer and then installed Gutsy Gibbon 7.10, and still it gives me the "Full Upgrade"-button in adept manager. Then, when updating my system, it suddenly says it's up-to-date, and cancels the update. Why is this? My system should be up-to-date, when it's the newest distro! [12:40] stupidgirl, sudo apt-get remove && sudo apt-get install [12:41] stupidgirl: sudo aptitude gives an ncurses interface [12:41] sam_: but the gnome developers are lazy to keep up with KDE 4 [12:41] oook thnx yeo_ [12:41] np [12:41] thnx WaltzingAlong [12:41] i tried giving the kde4 stuff a go, it hanged on load up. I don't recommend it if anyone is thinking of trying it [12:41] please someone tell me whether 7.10 is better than 7.04 [12:41] stupidgirl: or sudo aptitude purge or sudo aptitude install [12:41] a good idea would be to do include the clean command. so that the package is downloaded again and not installed from the local copy [12:41] so... [12:41] stupidgirl, sudo apt-get remove && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install [12:42] alrighty thanks 8-} [12:42] nw [12:42] robinl: true... but look how Dell are poshing ubuntu, look at howtoforge.. and all the other sites... [12:42] sam_: yeah, i don't get it either. but i think it's a better choice to go with ubuntu, because it's got much more support [12:42] robinl: am tired of KDE been treated as a second rate citizen! [12:43] would make more sense to see ubuntuG and ubuntuK or something the like so they could all be called common base ubuntu but with different frontends === neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde [12:43] sam_: perhaps you could find a kde centric distro? [12:43] yeah KDE is so much better than Gnome [12:43] GNOME is for manic depressants [12:43] robinl: makes sence for uses.. but im also a coder.. ant prefer KDE/Qt so would be sad for me to deploy ubuntu Desktop, when i develop 4 and in Kubuntu [12:44] QT roxx [12:44] indeed :D [12:44] WaltzingAlong: will probably switch to Suse or Mandriva [12:44] Hi to everyone [12:44] best framework I've worked with [12:44] sam_: hmm ,yeah, well, luckily i don't have that problem, as i just use my computer for normal stuff :) so it doesn't really matter what i choose, and although i prefer kde, gnome's got the most support and development, like ubuntu [12:44] I've a problem with Kubuntu [12:44] yup! Qt/KDELibs r the BEST! [12:45] man loading compiz at startup juyst makes this machine go mad [12:45] kde has the best apps. [12:45] Assid, i think thats normal...if you mean flickering screen/desktop and some pauses [12:45] I'm hoping installing nvidia-glx out of adept will actually work [12:45] robinl: hey! enjoy... hopefully here from you later - after the switch.. maby a 30days with ubuntu article! [12:46] Blake812 what problem ? [12:46] How can I use my soundcard Crystal CS4236? [12:46] sam_: wha? [12:46] yeo_: nah.. the apps dont go to the task bar.. emerald makes things worse. some other isuse here and there [12:46] ktorrent is great , it's best torrent app on any platform if u ask me hehe [12:46] yeo_: true but sadly look at Evolution is more promoted that Kontact.. and i can see why... [12:46] excellent it's possible to make konqueror the default file browser [12:47] Sorry for my English, but I'm from Italy [12:47] yeo_: maybe i should do a fresh install too [12:47] robinl: ya.. if u do switch.. let us know hw it goes.. my hope is u'll come back.. esp.. when KDE4 comes.. [12:47] yeah, evolution is pretty good [12:48] if sylpheed at html support i would use that over evolution [12:48] Blake812 sorry [12:48] sam_: i already switched, as i created a new user (because gnome didn't start) and moved my files there, so kde won't work now anyways [12:48] at=had [12:48] ive used ubuntu sometimes.. but only on Servers.. desktops i find it cripling and then later switch back to KDE [12:48] wilson: that file you asked me to remove compiz from didn't exist apparently (|/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrrc) [12:48] Assid, i dont know. no guarantee itd fix anything. but if its no inconvenience [12:48] ah I have wonderful konqueror back [12:48] kde4 still very very buggy ? [12:48] i use icewm when im dev [12:48] asimon_: that's right [12:49] and kde with compiz when im showing off/playing :) [12:49] Assid: sorry that was for you, kde4 is still buggy [12:49] asimon_: sorry wrong person [12:49] [your home directory]/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrc [12:49] That's what I tried, and it wasn't there apparently [12:49] very buggy? or is it just buggy here and there [12:49] It said no file or folder found [12:50] robinl: hey! enjoy... hopefully here from you later - after the switch.. maby a 30days with ubuntu article! [12:50] My soundcard doesn't work with Kubuntu !!! [12:50] im a kde man myself sam_ but right now im test driving gnome just to see if i like it :) [12:50] ls ~/.kde/share/config/ksm* try that [12:50] Assid: try it out, i haven't used the latest beta [12:51] Is there a way to do the update via CLI? [12:51] Well I'm in livecd at the minute, so I'll have to reboot and try, bbs [12:51] It's CRYSTAL CS4236 (ISA) [12:51] letalis i must say.. some of the things are more polished in ubuntu for gnome than 4 kde.. and you'll probably like it... [12:51] ouch, ISA ? [12:51] still getting errors when updating [12:51] how can i download the source of the kubuntu-artwork-usplash package? [12:51] sam i remember the first iterations of gnome. [12:52] * letalis shudders [12:52] just like im also growing to like OSX ever since i got a macbook.. and what to port/clone some apps to KDE [12:52] didn't even linus say he prefers kde over gnome =) [12:52] honestly the biggest thing that keeps me going back to a linux desktop is konqueror. [12:52] :) [12:52] wilson u right! but he also seemed to say he uses neither - dont know why? [12:52] konqueror is the best part of kde [12:53] wilson: thats cause gnome at that time was too damn buggy [12:53] Is there a way to do the update to GG via CLI? [12:53] ck_42: yes [12:53] and he asked them to fix the bugs.. gnome guys said no bugs.. and he sent in a patch 4 hours later [12:53] i love how i can drop a cd in the crive and it lets me rip the audio tracks straight from the disc without third party programs. [12:53] drive [12:53] ScorpKing: apt-get source [12:54] ty yamal [12:54] gnome + yakuake is livable :) [12:54] letalis: it only looks that way because of the way the kde devs wrote it [12:54] umm can someone tell me why... i just installed 7.10 (kubuntu) and in apt it has version upgrade button which by the looks of it attempts to install it again. I installed it from cd [12:54] letalis: yeah that audiocd:/ ioslave is amazing, although I still prefer kaudiocreator [12:54] i know [12:54] hey guys [12:55] I have a question how do i install automatix in kubuntu? [12:55] its not magic but the fact it simply looks like your copying mp3's or ogg off of the disc is pretty cool [12:55] !automatix [12:55] :) [12:55] Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.

[12:55] i like the bookmark thing a little better in dolphin [12:55] Phlosten: suck a**e [12:56] how annoying, pastebin doesnt work for me. Does anyone else having troble updating? [12:56] Phlosten: not that i know, just does it differently and less of it to simply the interface of what it does [12:56] but thats it if konq had that, dolphin would go byebye. [12:56] utopiancradle rock me you disasterful man you dystopianray [12:56] i don't know what they were thinking putting dolphin as default [12:56] lol [12:56] it should have been made optional for people who want to try it [12:56] its broken [12:56] fragmented [12:57] dystopianray: how did you change it back to konq? [12:57] dystopianray: and for people who are new to kubuntu/kde and who have not been using konqueror? [12:57] its like going back to win3.1 file manager after playing with vistas explorer. [12:57] they should use the open version of Directory Opus [12:57] maybe not that bad [12:57] Phlosten: right mouse click a folder, select open with, findkonqueror, click remember this app [12:57] but it feels crippled. [12:57] LOL [12:57] Phlosten: http://sathyasays.com/?p=23 [12:58] WaltzingAlong: that doesn't work very well, we want konq for non-directories as well like system:/ and media:/ [12:58] anybody else have their kaffeine lock up? [12:58] meaning just showning green bar like thnigs [12:58] this is what im getting half way through "prepering update" http://pastebin.ca/742291 [12:58] SO how do i install automatix2? [12:58] WaltzingAlong: konqueror is still perfectly fine as a file browser for those new to ubuntu [12:59] ubuntu: you shouldn't use automatix [12:59] that was pretty generic information telling me exactly NOthing [12:59] ;) [12:59] i am on a vm if it gets broken i' ll use a snapshot [12:59] Phlosten: and through file associations, find system_directory then put konqueror to the top [12:59] it cant harm me [12:59] i like now with tabs, u can just have different dirs tabbed [12:59] i am immune [13:00] this is what im getting half way through "prepering update" http://pastebin.ca/742291 [13:00] yeah tabs are excellent [13:00] ubuntu: visit the automatix website. automatix support not available in here [13:00] and being able to mix and match all manner of konqueror tabs together in one window [13:00] fish:/, smb:/, http:/, ftp:/, file:/ anything you want [13:00] dystopianray: cheers [13:00] dolphin is just ridiculous [13:01] uneccessary [13:01] it's good for very noob users like my mother :-) [13:02] yeah, i prefer not to have a 'dumbed down' computer though [13:02] Phlosten: some would argue there is no other way to do it [13:02] a meeting of the users and machine through the interface [13:03] cyborgs ! [13:03] cool ksystemlog just crashed again [13:03] dodgy [13:04] !ping [13:04] pong [13:04] hm... [13:04] WaltzingAlong: i didnt know that why so hostile its all opensource [13:04] where is the strigi config/database stored? [13:04] ubuntu: sure but quality is the difference [13:05] ubuntu: you may try it, it may work wonders for you, it may not [13:05] oh ~/.strigi [13:05] add and remove programs is painfully sluggish in Kubuntu [13:05] i am looking for an alternative thats all [13:05] ubuntu: sudo aptitude [13:06] everything works better from konsole ;p [13:06] is it just me or is strigi exceptionally crap? [13:07] open source shares one characteristic with communism and that is bureacracy thanks for giving me some WaltzingAlong [13:07] * WaltzingAlong ignorse [13:07] ubuntu: ok thanks [13:07] friendlyness and kindness is proprietary so it seems [13:07] ;0 [13:08] my strigi keeps dieing [13:08] i lost all application in menu! and menu editor error: kde-menu: You must specify an application-id such as 'kde-konsole.desktop' [13:08] he asked for it [13:08] sorry about that [13:08] i am just offended by his rudeness [13:08] i recompiled strigi from svn === v0taguz_ is now known as v0taguz [13:08] it was hogging resources [13:09] Good day, I'm wondering about setting a system-wide language. I installed the esperanto language packages using install new language in System Settings, but when I click on "Select System Language" I only get a variety of Englishes. KDE is in Esperanto, but nothing else is, including apps like Openoffice which are if you set them manually in their own options. Any idea how to make it go system-wide? [13:10] arctanx: I don't think you can set the language in one place [13:10] ubuntu: if I were to tell you that I were offended by your remark about communism and bureaucracy, would that give me the excuse to give you a piece of my mind, in a channel that's not for that? [13:10] ubuntu: besides, he's only telling you the truth and the support policy we have for automatix [13:10] dystopianray: So all over the world, everything comes in English, until you go around to each program which supports it and say "No, I want you in French" or something? [13:10] jucato i know i am sorry [13:10] i got emotional sorry [13:10] hm.. where's T3... [13:10] its just the way he said Jucato [13:11] arctanx: you can set it 'globally' for kde and gnome [13:11] !automatix | ubuntu [13:11] ubuntu: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.

So when the KDE language is set, does that mean that KDE apps (like, say, amaroK), will pick up the language setting if they have a translation? [13:12] arctanx: that's right [13:12] dystopianray: Got it. Thanks muchly [13:12] did anyone successfully try out kde4? [13:12] beta3? [13:12] arctanx: but gnome apps won't see the kde setting and neutral apps probably won't see the setting from kde/gnome [13:12] !ping [13:12] pong [13:12] Makes sense. === psycho is now known as fennek [13:12] arctanx: although setting a global locale may help, i'm not sure [13:13] arctanx: /etc/default/locale [13:13] dystopianray: Now that was one of the things which interested me, I don't seem to have one, and I can't work out how to do it. A howto I found pointed me at a package called localeconf, which seems not to exist [13:13] How do I load a text file so I can edit it in konsole? [13:13] come to think of it I really don't know a good reason to upgrade to gutsy.... hm... [13:13] what the? [13:13] Yammeh: what editor do you want to use? [13:14] Jucato- it's a different address every time [13:14] Well I'll be using the alt+f1 gui, so I can't use one with a graphical interface [13:14] asdf [13:14] rawr! [13:14] Yammeh: do you know how to use vim? [13:14] Nope [13:14] Yammeh: use nano [13:14] Yammeh: try: nano textfile [13:14] Yammeh: the what? [13:15] Hello. I found the value "MaxRequestSize" for cupsd.conf and set it to "0" (which should be default, I thought) but that doesn't help. A large print job (33 MB) causes the printer to be stopped with "Print file was not accepted (client-error-request-value-too-long)!". Any idea what the problem is here? [13:15] ok, thanks [13:15] Hope I can sort this damn compiz problem this time >> [13:15] vlt: did you restart cups? [13:15] dystopianray: Yes. [13:16] i dunno why he doesn't just mount the disk from the live cd hahahaha [13:16] humbolto: i tried from feisty, but couldnt get it to work.

[13:53] ardchoille: not really. it just makes installing .deb files easier with gdebi-kde [13:53] debby? [13:53] !deb | ubuntu [13:53] ubuntu: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu) [13:53] Jucato: Ah, ok [13:53] ubuntu: a bit close though [13:53] i am running Kubuntu not debian [13:53] debian is other linux [13:53] ubuntu: Kubuntu is based on Debian [13:53] strigi can't index image files? [13:53] oh ok [13:53] nothing looks odd in /var/log/Xorg.0.log [13:54] ubuntu: kubuntu and ubuntu are based on Debian [13:54] so ubuntu is debian for n00bs? [13:54] * genii sips a coffee and tries to pry his eyes open [13:55] w_W [13:55] i like kiba dock [13:55] where to get deb for kiba dock i dont google cuz i am in china [13:55] cant trust american companies tell my govt. i am using free stuff [13:56] http://www.kiba-dock.org/ <-- their website [13:56] thanx [13:56] can't see a Download link/page though [13:56] I can't make my IP settings for my eth0 stick for some reason. I have never had this trouble before. It keeps reverting back... I set to manual, change the IP and Apply. If I close system settings and go back, they are set back to what they were before I changed them. What am I missing? [13:57] ubuntu: try this page, it has instructions: http://www.kiba-dock.org/index.php?option=com_mambowiki&Itemid=39 [13:57] JuJuBee: you taste so sweet i love my JuJuBeans based WaWa coffee [13:57] ubuntu: please don't do that [13:57] thanx Jucato [13:57] do what? [13:57] ubuntu: it's Linux for human beings :) [13:57] JuJuBee: you taste so sweet i love my JuJuBeans based WaWa coffee [13:57] unless you two personally know each other. but still inappropriate here [13:58] yes Jucato you dont have good coffee in Venezuela? [13:58] sorry [13:58] :) [13:58] I'm not in Venezuela or anywhere near [13:58] joke :) [13:58] you mi espisito [13:59] tiamo :) [13:59] Now that that is over... Why would my network settings revert back?

I've installed kde4base-dev successfully, now is there anything else I should attempt to be safe before trying it out in the sessions? [14:01] Yes [14:01] see told you so JuJuBee [14:01] glad to be of service [14:01] xmms is no longer supported? [14:01] is anyone having any luck with strigi? it seems to be one of the crappiest pieces of software i've ever used [14:01] ubuntu : stuff a sock in it. [14:02] whats the name of ms core fonts package [14:02] mttscorefonts? [14:02] msttcorefonts [14:02] yeah [14:02] what kind of sock i dont need sock you mean cuz i am chinese i need a sock there thats so rude [14:02] just do ubuntu-restricted-extras and kubuntu-restricted-extras :P [14:02] LiL-JoN: didn't you install kubuntu-restricted-extras yet? [14:02] yeah [14:02] hm.. [14:02] oh yeah it's not part of that :P [14:02] work, AFK [14:02] :P [14:03] yeah install msttcorefonts [14:03] *cries* sure the first time the upgrade goes through, I don't have enough space for it *cries some more* [14:03] yeah thats it [14:03] afraid for Kubuntu [14:03] AFK? [14:03] Away From Keyboard [14:03] oh [14:03] ubuntu-restricted-extras is the main part, kubuntu one adds flash etc .. [14:03] genii : /etc/network/interfaces has the correct IP info... but still when I run system settings and look at the network info it is wrong. [14:03] mi english is no god [14:03] woah speedcrunch is massively improved, it supports binary and hex! [14:04] noway get out of here dystopianray [14:04] heh [14:04] ubuntu: I am serious, now I do not need to install kcalc [14:04] binary and hex woah [14:04] :)) [14:04] great [14:04] btw, any suggestions to my earlier question? [14:04] "I'd like to use KDE4. I've installed kde4base-dev successfully, now is there anything else I should attempt to be safe before trying it out in the sessions?" [14:04] thanks Jucato i love you [14:04] lol [14:05] QwertyM: I suggest just experimenting and following what it says on the site [14:05] ubuntu: binary and hex are extremely useful to programmers [14:05] i know [14:05] QwertyM: just follow carefully the instructions in the release announcement page andyou should be ok [14:05] dystopianray: how about octal? :) [14:05] jpatrick: ok, will run those commands, thank you. :) [14:05] i programmed automatix with hex and binaries :) [14:05] Jucato: you too ;) [14:05] ;) [14:05] :D [14:06] Jucato: It's not useful for much other than file permissions [14:06] !automatix rules [14:06] ubuntu: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [14:06] dystopianray: yeah it was a sort of sarcastic thingy :) [14:06] hehe ok [14:06] Jucato: is naughty D: [14:06] not as much as you. so please do behave :) [14:07] hydrogen: you live on real campus?

Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! [14:08] you mean chinease Jucato? [14:08] no [14:08] i dunno what chit means [14:08] is there a graphing calculator program in the repos?

[14:12] damn konversation... so does someone know of a program that will make kde compatible with a monitor that rotates to a portrait position? [14:12] JuJuBee: I ask if eth0 is also internet because if the computer is doing the ISP login, it will revert any settings you make to whatever the pppoe login gets from server (usually pppoe, can be other types) [14:12] oelewapperke are you a pancake? [14:12] voicu: krandrtray? [14:12] voicu: Installed by default [14:12] voicu: to make it automatically rotate the screen? [14:12] bah he left [14:12] ubuntu: stop doing that! [14:13] dystopianray: not necessarily automatically [14:13] ubuntu: please behave as if your niece was in here [14:13] jucato: ok, lemme try [14:13] voicu: xrandr can rotate the screen [14:13] jpatrick: he might be asking what that means next... :/ [14:14] http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/chit-chat the Sir was right Jucato chit chat doesnt exist its chit-chat (hyphenated ) [14:14] Jucato: :) [14:14] mi amigo [14:15] Package kiba-dock does not exist in gutsy [14:15] Package kiba does not exist in gutsy [14:15] ubuntu: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu.

Is it a pain to install? [14:26] John117: no idea, I don't use it [14:27] 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 [14:27] dystopianray do you use any enhancement like it? [14:27] John117: [14:27] how do I check for "universe repository" ? [14:27] Adept Manager -> Adept Menu -> Manage Repositories [14:28] cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep -i universe <-- if the line has a # in the beginning, it's not activated [14:28] John117: no, I do not care for 3d desktop effects [14:29] vzduch, grep accepts a filename as a second parameter, so you can use: grep -i universe /etc/apt/sources.list [14:29] Ash-Fox: not bad, didn't know that :) [14:29] vzduch: overuse of cat makes me cry :\ [14:29] hydrogen: why? [14:29] oh, Ash-Fox already mentioned it [14:29] How do I upgrade to gutsy? adept manager sux! [14:30] vzduch: ok, done. thanks [14:30] I do not get notifiations about a new version avaliable, do I need to change the sources list first? [14:30] see the topic. [14:31] hydrogen, I use cat a lot.. even for transfering files. I don't use scp.. I use: cat filename |ssh server "cat > filename" [14:31] * Ash-Fox overuses cat :P [14:31] meow [14:31] hehe [14:31] * Ash-Fox pets Jucato [14:31] * Jucato purrs... [14:32] (^-_-^) [14:33] Ash-Fox: thats just sillier [14:34] hydrogen, you'd be suprised how many systems just don't have scp [14:34] I-ve followed the upgrade guides for kubuntu, but no luck. My question is> Can I change all references to feisty to gutsy in sources.list and then dist-upgrade? [14:35] tinin, you can try, but it's not recommended. What did you have no luck with? [14:35] is anyone else getting kernel panics when hibernating? [14:35] dystopianray, nope. [14:35] damn, I had perfectly working suspend and hibernate for two releases, now hibernate panics and suspend sometimes fails [14:35] universe repository is now enabled, but still no xemacs. any more advice ? [14:36] Un: did you "sudo apt-get update" already? [14:37] !java [14:37] 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. [14:37] ok... my upgrade to gutsy didn't go as well as i thought. i had to stop it before it was done and now the monitor configuration says i have an orphaned control module. what could be the problem? [14:37] give me one line of command to enable mp3 decoding! [14:37] Jucato: yes, but it failed, hanging at "99% [Connecting to fr.archive.ubuntu.com (194.2.0.36)]" [14:37] sorry :P [14:37] Ash-Fox guides tell you to manage the sources list via adept manager, and some guides tell you to enable the "Recommended updates" and others also to enable the "Pre release updates" and then reload. But this does not work for me, i get no notifications about the new version avaliable [14:38] aso [14:39] "Enable PRE RELEASED updates"? I'm a cautious user, why I need pre-released updates to do the upgrade? [14:39] I tryed to "fake" fr.archive.ubuntu.com to archive.ubuntu.com but it didn't get much better [14:39] the change of instructions for upgrade and the need for -proposed was caused by a bug in Adept not reading the new distro version file properly. [14:39] Whats a "Kicker Background"? === marcin is now known as thid [14:40] I-m not the only one haveing problems with upgrade https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuGutsyComments [14:40] !flash [14:40] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [14:40] Kubuntu sux, it is not beeing maintained as I hoped [14:41] They care the most for ubuntu [14:41] fine. stalled update restarted. but it now failed during dependency [14:41] kde is worth any kind of trouble :P [14:41] my adept is not able to download the, ReleaseAnnouncement, so the wizard cannot continue. any tips on overcomming this?

[14:57] hi [14:57] compiz has such a feature [14:57] GS3User007: that's the bug. and there's a fix [14:57] there's an updated version of KDE core that fixes the kopete crash... [14:57] anyone experiences this? http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3087600.0 (xgl related) [14:57] GS3User007: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdenetwork/+bug/153500 [14:58] but the fix should be available through normal updates soon [14:58] i'll grab it then [14:58] i still dont know how to start/configure compiz on kde [14:58] it's not a huge deal, i'm only running a virtual pc atm [14:58] i installed yesterday kubuntu 7.10, and now my cpu runs to fast. Normally it is a pentium m 1500 mhz, but now it runs at 1600. How can i fix this? It occurs in the live cd and in installation [14:59] dedi: what graphic card?

[15:00] hay all a quick question, Does anyone have any ideas on why my printer is printing in green/blue instead of black? [15:01] anybody wanna see my desktop? [15:01] because you have the ink backwards? because the black is empty? just a couple possibilities [15:01] it's been my experience that some printers will compensate for lack of black ink and start spraying dark colors instead [15:02] ink is in the same spot, black is still good. I know i am out of yellow, But in anycase it works correctly in windows [15:02] no idea then [15:03] has anyone an idea, where i can set cpu frequency? === siraj is now known as siraj_ [15:03] Hi guys/gals.

[15:38] liquid-x: you'll want to define a double instance of your "Screen" "Monitor" and "Device" within xorg.conf. Depending on the xserver driver your using, you can then set the layout within the Serverlayout section of the config [15:39] bjwebb: default theme for OOo, [15:39] sub[t]rnl: i did that, and nvidia crashes before login [15:39] define default bjwebb [15:39] liquid-x: what was the crash related too?

[16:04] CPrgmSwR2: what type of modem have you got [16:04] just what env variable will make an application run with default kde colours? [16:05] qwerty' did you install the package ? install kdebase-workspace and kde4base-dev. [16:05] it is mostly disk cache.

[16:12] wait no [16:12] rand_acs: yes [16:12] native* [16:12] awesome [16:12] like text that appears in konsole has different colors [16:12] rand_acs: but still 64 has bunches of problems [16:12] CPrgmSwR2: konsole supports colours [16:12] I am using cmake and its all the same white color [16:12] but in gentoo the text would appear in diffierent colors [16:13] LiL-JoN : the kbfx is just an applet that replaces the kmenu. You can "remove" the kmenu and then right click on the panel and "Add Applet" you will see KBFX listed there. Might have to move it over to wher the kmenu was. [16:13] LiL-JoN: ugh, so getting the 32bit version is probably still beter [16:13] <_3mti_> Hi all [16:13] CPrgmSwR2: gentoo probably has a different version or a patched version [16:13] Hi - I've been using following browser's in KDE for awhile now - Firefox - Opera - Epiphany - There is good and bad with all seems like. Has anyone tried SEaMonkey? - I know it's based on mozilla - Want something more stable then Firefox - it crash'es sometimes - real annoying.

[16:15] <_3mti_> this IOquake3 i compatibility with 1.32 ? [16:16] LiL-JoN: the 3in1 script form the forums doesn't work anymore though [16:16] i meant CPrgmSwR2 [16:16] _3mti_: you can run 32 bit processes along side 64, unless your system started in 32-bit mode [16:16] rand_acs: no clue what that is :[ [16:16] _3mti_: yes, as long as punkbuster is not used [16:16] CPrompt^: i cant install a theme [16:17] sub[t]rnl: dude, thanks i got back in [16:17] <_3mti_> my directory /lib/x86_64 is empty... i have to make UPGRATE FULL ??

[16:43] go to shipit [16:43] !botabuse [16:43] atlfalcons866, ?? [16:43] Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids. Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops... [16:43] Vermux: depends. i usually use less [16:43] the_machine skyfalcon866 [16:43] i think [16:43] which one??? [16:43] WaltzingAlong: with cat It doesnt pauses at the end of each page of a file? [16:44] LjL: how to get the name changed from factoids? [16:44] g2g [16:44] WaltzingAlong: the name changed? [16:44] erg....I just realised something....the adio is so crisp and clear I heard something that was in a sound track that wasnt there befor.... [16:44] i think Vermux cat defaults to spitting it all out [16:44] WaltzingAlong: ok [16:44] they really did a great job on the soundsystem part [16:44] factoids. it is misused. meant to mean "small" fact but really the ~oid like humanoid means something less than human; so factoid should be not a fact [16:44] CPrgmSwR2: is it working? === tommus is now known as kobaia [16:45] what the heck, now it started from the beginning.......................... !! aaaaaah, now I got that error again [16:45] how do I c computer specifications in kubuntu? [16:45] I'm having serious problems updating [16:45] Vermux: kinfocenter ? [16:45] Pantha: no [16:45] CPrgmSwR2: so did you replace that ps1-line? [16:45] yes [16:46] and tried that "source /etc/profile"? [16:46] WaltzingAlong: heh come on it's just a name [16:46] I even restarted konsole [16:46] sure sure that is how it starts ;D [16:46] hey [16:46] major issue in the live disc === andreas_ is now known as gns_nobody [16:46] kopete crashes [16:46] !waltz [16:46] Factoid waltz not found [16:46] :P [16:46] lol [16:46] i cant connect to msn on it [16:47] Assid: sure grab the patch [16:47] !botabuse [16:47] kopete crashing on gutsy with msn? already addressed; check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/153500 and toward the bottom are downloads (the updates will be available in the normal repositories when they have been thawed) [16:47] please [16:47] Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids. Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops... [16:47] CPrgmSwR2: those colours don't change after that source-command? [16:47] No problems here! Except um... Wireless Ethernet card. Adaptability issues with Toshiba. [16:47] Launchpad bug 153500 in kdelibs "Kopete crashes on startup" [High,Fix committed] [16:47] can soembody help me with this error http://pastebin.com/m6b6a4686 [16:47] WaltzingAlong: there is no general screen with cpu Ram speed? [16:47] And my sound isn't working. Go figure. [16:47] Pantha: not the ones in cmake [16:47] WaltzingAlong: am reinstalling atm [16:47] will do it when i finish installing [16:47] LjL: what's the problem [16:47] ? [16:47] vzduch: that the bot shouldn't be abused? [16:47] me? [16:47] CPrgmSwR2: oh.. it might use some other file for its color-settings [16:47] Pantha: The beauty with colors in cmake is that it points out errors [16:48] Vermux: like ms windows task manager? [16:48] LjL: I can't see it being abused atm [16:48] LjL: sorry, was just joking with waltz earlier that I should be able to trigger him for the kopete .deb [16:48] alrite.. letting this install as we speak [16:48] Pantha: directories do show up as blue [16:48] Vermux: htop can give you some of that. there is a prog like that with ubuntu (gnome) [16:48] im gonna watch "final cut" [16:48] vzduch: well, i can [16:48] can soembody help me with this error http://pastebin.com/m6b6a4686 [16:48] vzduch: [23:46] !waltz [16:48] Vermux: lspci, df, free, are all commands that will give system info [16:49] Vermux: there's also ksysguard [16:49] Pantha: but whats weird is by default cmake colorize its text [16:49] Vermux: but one to give it all together in a nice package? some desktop applets i guess [16:49] does anyone have the color scheme to get the windows to look like they did in fiesty? [16:49] Pantha: so someone had to manually modify cmake to make it un-colorized [16:49] Jucato: you can wet your pants for one single command that doesn't exist.. *shakingHead* [16:50] is the stable version of 7.10 out yet? [16:50] LiL-JoN: ok so check the permissions: ls -lh /home/jon/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml [16:50] WaltzingAlong: kinfocenter doesnt give all at once? [16:50] vzduch: at this point in time, the bots are under heavy usage because of the latest release [16:50] arash: yup [16:50] vzduch: every improper use of the bot leads to unnecessary load [16:50] WaltzingAlong: run that in terminal? [16:50] Vermux: sure all in that one program but not altogether. maybe you want to see on one screen cpu/ram/hd space/ and so on [16:50] vzduch: specially if the wrong factoid was called on purpose [16:50] Jucato: and then you trigger !botabuse.. another unnecessary load.. :P [16:51] LiL-JoN: sure [16:51] Jucato: ksysguard is like task manager in Win? [16:51] Vermux: yeah [16:51] ok [16:51] CPrgmSwR2: maybe cmake doesn't recognize your console-program and that's why it doesn't use colors [16:51] Vermux: although pressing Ctrl+Esc brings up just the Processes list [16:51] WaltzingAlong: this happens every time i close dolphin [16:51] Vermux: but better, you can tailor your own worksheets if you want [16:51] CPrgmSwR2: have you tried it with some other consoles? [16:51] LiL-JoN: sure every time it tries write to a file on which it does not have the permission to write [16:51] WaltzingAlong: heres the output of that command "-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.1K 2007-10-19 08:38 /home/jon/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml" [16:51] Pantha: I used gentoo in the paste and worked fine with konsole [16:52] LiL-JoN: and there you have it. must have opened dolphin as sudo so now that file is owned by root but you should see jon jon there instead [16:52] Question: Before I updated Ubuntu 7.06 to 7.10 - my sound was working fine. When I updated to 7.10 my sound isn't working anymore - instead I only hear a faint audio, probably coming from another internal speaker for "beeps" , etc . . . How can this be fixed? [16:52] LiL-JoN: so change it to you. sudo chown jon:jon /home/jon/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml [16:52] WaltzingAlong: how do i fix? [16:52] WaltzingAlong: waht is htop\? do I need it? [16:52] jer_: alsamixer [16:52] !info htop | Vermux [16:52] vermux: Package htop does not exist in [16:52] WaltzingAlong: your a life saver [16:53] WaltzingAlong: sorry, package lookup is not available [16:53] subttrnl - alsamixer - enable this? [16:53] Vermux: not needed, just shows same stuff as in 'top' but maybe in a nicer way [16:53] LjL: thanks, noticed that [16:53] jer_: run it from a cli (command line interface) [16:53] jer_: open konsole, and then run alsamixer. You can mute the front ends or adjust volumes. See if that helps [16:54] I'm having trouble updating, when the updater is preparing for update I get an error: Error during update, Failed to fetch http://mirror3.ubuntu.com/dists/feisty-seveas/Release.gpg Could not resolve 'mirror3.ubuntu.com' + a bunch of other sources . Does anyone else have this problem?= [16:54] #kubuntu-de [16:54] sub(t)rnl - what would the run command for that look like? in konsole? [16:54] sub[t]rnl: lspci gives information that ksysguard doesnt have? [16:54] pastebin doesnt seem to be working for me either..... dunno why [16:54] <_3mti_> Cy4 all & THX 4 HELP !!! QUAKE III EXCESSIVEPLUS on Linux 64!!! I love this game !!! [16:54] <_3mti_> cy4 all [16:55] jer_: alsamixer [16:55] RytmenPinnen: there are several http://pastebin.com [16:55] RytmenPinnen: are you updating to gutsy? or just plain updating? [16:55] to gutsy, from feisty [16:55] subt[t]rnl - OK. that worked. It says Master, PCM, MIC, Caller I, Off Hook. [16:55] Jucato: been a long day?! [16:56] RytmenPinnen: it's best that you disable 3rd party repos [16:56] hi [16:56] nosrednaekim: quite [16:56] * bjwebb is running kde4 [16:56] k [16:56] bjwebb: is it nice? [16:56] erm [16:56] WaltzingAlong: ksysguard crushed [16:56] bjwebb: screenshot me [16:56] its seems slow [16:56] subt[t]rnl - PCM is 100<>100, Mic is as well. Master is 00, but nothing else. [16:57] bjwebb: yeah... I think it still has all the debugging stuff turned on [16:57] jer_: use your keyboard direction keys to navigate and adjust volumes. "M" will unmute any muted channels [16:57] WaltzingAlong: correction: kinfocenter crushed when I click on GL [16:57] can i turn it off, because it makes my 1GB machine look silly [16:58] bjwebb: is it RAM use? or CPU? [16:58] ik krijg geen verbinding met mijn newsserver via klibido [16:58] nosrednaekim: not sure [16:58] it just feels slow [16:58] Jucato: its been two days for me...heh [16:58] WaltzingAlong: open GL [16:58] i messed up my upgrade - when I fetch updates in adept the version upgrade button turns on - when I click it the upgrade utility begins to run and then gives an error because I'm already upgraded... [16:58] how can I fix this? [16:58] i can't get klibido to connect with my newsserver [16:58] some kind of dpkg? [16:58] how do you change the color of the window bers? [16:58] hi @ all [16:58] i don't appear to have a menu [16:59] bjwebb: kde4? that's normal [16:59] What do I have to do to re-enable apport's crash reporting? [16:59] bjwebb: right click on the desktop, run command, run "kickoff" [16:59] it was only a bit later that the kickoff menu was added [16:59] I selected to start KDE with a blank session and am no longer getting anything from Apport [16:59] or it is... whatever :P [16:59] Jucato: its in Beta 3 [16:59] my kopete crashed every time i want to connect to msn, because of an programming mistake how can i change that [16:59] bug 153500\ [16:59] WaltzingAlong: ^^^^ [16:59] bug 153500 [16:59] hehe [16:59] nosrednaekim: doesn't work here [16:59] Jucato: kinfocenter crushes when I click on open GL, I think it is a bug [16:59] err! I have to rembeber tht link! [17:00] thats nice, can i actually have it popuping up from my menu? [17:00] Vermux: ksysguard, not kinfocenter [17:00] thanks Jucato, sems to be working now. [17:00] bjwebb: right-click on the desktop -> Add Applet, look for Application Launcher, and drag and drop to the panel [17:00] Jucato: no, kinfocenter [17:01] i can't get klibido to connect with my newsserver, how can i connect? [17:01] or at least is there a way to find out what is starting in a default Kubuntu session? [17:01] this object could not be created [17:01] bjwebb: not yet I don't think. [17:01] blck: http://ubuntu.lnix.net/misc/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb [17:01] he's gone or else I would have had that b4 you ;) [17:01] kopete is crashing attempting to connect to msn, how to solve it? [17:01] anybody can help with auth-client-config ? [17:01] wsjunior: Follow sub[t]rnl's link [17:01] wsjunior: http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb [17:01] nosrednaekim: pfft my dad can beat up your dad [17:02] I can't authenticate in Gutsy using LDAP :-( [17:02] Jucato: check that. I think it is a bug [17:02] Vermux: what video card do you have? [17:02] new kdelibs to fix a kopete issue? [17:02] I don't know. I can't check it right now. if it is, file a bug report [17:02] wsjunior: indeed [17:02] wsjunior: yes. for the kopete crashing [17:02] wsjunior: Yes. Because the problem is caused by KIO_HTTP [17:03] got it :) [17:03] LiL-JoN: hiya! [17:03] subt[t]rnl - Hmm, nothing seems to be working. Master doesn't have a volume option. PCM and Mic toggling doesn't seem to affect it. [17:04] !hi | ScorpKing [17:04] ScorpKing: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! [17:04] sorry bad connection [17:04] whoever asked for a snapshot: ksnapshot crashes [17:04] any one in here with a x 300 I just need to verifie its ram befor I go "poking" and "peeking" in my code [17:04] wsjunior: It shouldn't be that much of a surprise since kdelibs affects all of KDE ;) [17:04] nosrednaekim: where do I check that? [17:04] :P [17:04] hmm actually poking and peeking would be used for audio now taht I remeber [17:05] Vermux: lspci | grep vga [17:05] kde4's probably slow now because they still have extra checks for bug reporting in it [17:05] so the alsa mixer doesn't have too many options . . . . [17:05] OOOOH COOLIO I can control the volume by using my mouse wheel [17:05] Master, PCM, MIC . . . Master has no volume for some reason. Just mute or un mute. [17:06] yeah... I hate that that feature isn't in Vista! [17:06] lee986321: how? [17:06] nosrednaekim: nothing happans when I type it [17:06] can somebody help out with a klibido-prob? [17:06] mike-kubuntu: scroll over the kmix applet [17:06] lee986321: My laptop has a knob for that, which is even cooler! =P [17:06] just rest the mouse on the Icon [17:06] witthe speaker [17:06] ah [17:06] cool [17:06] kubuntu only lets my keyboard volume go from 0-11% and mute does not mute it [17:06] cannot connect to newsserver...pan works okay but find it very cumbersome [17:06] or from 100-89% [17:07] can someone tell me how I can configure compiz from KDE. I'm using 7.10 [17:07] it seems taht many of the interactiv Icons can do that [17:07] kobaia: same thing happened here until I manually set the volume up and down to the master channel [17:07] Dorgendubal: what video card? [17:07] ATI [17:07] aww... [17:07] resting the mouse at the botom of the chat line alows you to flip between windows [17:07] * AmyRose hugs Dorgendubal for having ATI [17:07] nosrednaekim: does the information u r looking for is the following? : 1:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UniChrome Pro IGP (rev 01) [17:08] hi can anyone tell if this there is an amarok help channel here in irc [17:08] Question: How do I enable the master channel volume? It's missing on my Ubuntu.... [17:08] Dorgendubal: download the latest 8.40 drivers from amd.com [17:08] then kde4 runs nice and fast [17:08] the drivers that are in kubuntu don't work well with kde4 [17:08] Dorgendubal: get the proprietayr drivers with the restricted-manager-kde then install xserver-xgl [17:08] ghozala: #amarok [17:08] CPrgmSwR2: he isn't talking about kde4 [17:08] in adept manager, the install is complete, i see dpkg run finished, but is till see the 100% bar, and not the update complete page, is it safe to close adept? [17:08] thanks [17:08] oh [17:08] Vermux: thats what I thought....happenes to me in fiesty on my via [17:08] CPrgmSwR2: Yeah, Dorgendubal is talking about running Compiz [17:08] CPrgmSwR2: i was the one talking about kde4 being slow [17:08] and resting the mouse on the Icon of Ameroch will change its volume aswell [17:08] Hamra: not really [17:09] I don't have any problem with my video card. I'm looking for something similar as gnome-compiz-manager [17:09] nosrednaekim: not quite sure i get what you mean by setting the volume up and down to the MC [17:09] you can't do that with windows [17:09] kobaia: in kmix go to settings->global shortcuts [17:09] bjwebb: You're lucky. All KDE 4 ever does for me is crash on startup [17:09] erg [17:09] nosrednaekim: what is open GL,. what does it suppose to display? [17:09] Not running kd4 [17:09] I don't have any problem with my video card. I'm looking for something similar as gnome-compiz-manager (same right color) [17:09] AmyRose: :D [17:09] AmyRose: if you had a version installed before, you may want to delete the .kde4 dir [17:09] or am I? [17:09] Vermux: It allows programs to do 3D without slowness if your hardware supports it [17:10] nosrednaekim: I didn't, and I have no .kde4 [17:10] I checked that already [17:10] Vermux: your ability or inability to play/do 3D games/stuff [17:10] nosrednaekim: maybe i should have done that [17:10] nosrednaekim: Or the way things seem to be headed, your ability or inability to run X in the future :( [17:10] nosrednaekim: ok, so the video card is not good enough? [17:10] AmyRose: eh? === chris__ is now known as ChrisMir [17:11] nosrednaekim: They're talking about scrapping X as it is and rewriting it on top of OpenGL, which would break support for my old computer [17:11] nosrednaekim: I also had a problem watching stream of video in web sites. [17:11] Dragnslcr: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager [17:11] thanks bjwebb, you saved me, adept is installing something else now [17:11] Vermux: VIA's have problems with 3d accel or anything requiring openGL [17:11] argh, great... upgrade tool crashed :( [17:11] !via | Vermux [17:11] Factoid via not found [17:11] !unichrome | Vermux [17:11] erg [17:12] Factoid unichrome not found [17:12] !test [17:12] Failed. [17:12] haha [17:12] nosrednaekim: package info not avaialble remember? [17:12] yay, I failed! [17:12] Jucato: besides, it wouldn't work without !info anyway ;) [17:12] maybe theyl have 2 types, they'ss save x for oldersytems and write the opengl for the newer systems [17:12] yeah [17:12] Jucato: But I don't remember any packages called "via" or "unichrome" [17:12] Jucato: that wasn't packages [17:12] Are there known problems with upgrading from 7.04 to 7.10? [17:12] is kde4 in the gutsy repos built with fulldebug enabled? [17:12] lee986321: I sure hope so [17:12] nosrednaekim: there's a handy !search command too [17:13] !search via [17:13] Found: edubuntuhandbook, kdesvn, aptoncd, subversion, samba, ext3, alternate, ops-#edubuntu, terminal, gimpshop [17:13] pffft [17:13] I am running a dell dimension 5150 [17:13] So after my upgrade from 7.04 -> 7.10 . My sound isn't working. The master volume in Konsole for asla doesn't give me an option for master volume, it just has options mute or unmute. [17:13] I think its considered Old lol [17:13] !gimpshop [17:13] gimpshop is a hack that makes The Gimp look and feel more like Photoshop. A .deb for Ubuntu is available via http://plasticbugs.com/?page_id=294 [17:13] haha [17:13] any update on getting 3d accelerated desktops working with ATI x1900? [17:13] Jucato: yes? [17:13] nosrednaekim: in other words, it is a shi**y video card? [17:13] kopete crashing on gutsy with msn? already addressed; check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/153500 and toward the bottom are downloads (the updates will be available in the normal repositories when they have been thawed) [17:13] WaltzingAlong: nvm :) [17:13] Launchpad bug 153500 in kdelibs "Kopete crashes on startup" [High,Fix committed] [17:13] Vermux: precisely [17:14] AmyRose this might be sacralage but have you tried Free spire? [17:14] is there a fix to the kopete crashes everytime you try to connect, yet? [17:14] nosrednaekim: VIA? of course it's is! :) [17:14] lee986321: Yes, and I FREAKING HATED IT [17:14] yay! bug botis back! [17:14] What is the best way to revive from a crashed upgrade? [17:14] lol [17:14] nosrednaekim: Ic. it explains also why I cant watch video stream smoothly embeded in a web site [17:14] lee986321: I tried it in a VM and couldn't not stand the fact that its default search engine is Live [17:14] Vermux: yup... they are the bottom of the bottom line. [17:14] how do i check what the OS sees my ip as? [17:14] ahh [17:14] lee986321: Also, doing updates broke the whole thing [17:15] GS3User007: ifconfig [17:15] nosrednaekim: who, via|? [17:15] thanks [17:15] ouch [17:15] Does anyone know how to fix the sound on Ubuntu? [17:15] GS3User007: or click on the Network manager [17:15] Vermux: yeah [17:15] Vermux: all the VIA S3 video cards can basically do well is just display.. [17:15] is there a utility in linux thatll make a 1:1 copy of an iso image on a flash drive? [17:15] define fix...lol [17:15] letalis: Yeah, dd [17:15] !persistent [17:15] Factoid persistent not found [17:15] * nosrednaekim keeps forgetting [17:15] nosrednaekim: no that wouldn't be persistent [17:16] lee - the master voluem is missing. you can hear a faint sound but it's from inside the computer (laptop -toshiba) [17:16] awesome i thought that it might i couldnt remember. thanks [17:16] how about gentoo? AmyRose? [17:16] lee986321: I got bored waiting for it to install [17:16] hmm [17:16] !ot [17:16] #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! [17:16] LOL [17:16] :D [17:16] lee986321: Yeah, we should move this to #kubuntu-offtopic (and I'm already /joined there) [17:17] true [17:17] *sigh* Is there anyone who can at least point me at the right direction, concerning my crahsed upgraded? [17:17] any how back on topipc [17:17] ChrisMir: is it possible for you to resume? [17:18] ChrisMir: i had problems too, and i found it easiest to reinstall from scratch [17:18] mhm my xorg uses 20% cpu (of a 3200+), fglrx and NO xgl [17:18] I dont have a resume button atm. I'm in the upgrade tool, but it is just sitting there doing nothing [17:18] nosrednaekim: via specialize in mini ITX? [17:18] is there a repository i can add that will add the win32 codec package so i can view whatever in Kaffiene? [17:18] The asla mixer on Konsole is working fine. However the master volume in there is gone. PCM and MIC volume is there . . . [17:18] Vermux: yup [17:18] Pantha: That's a poor mans solution. I wish to upgrade :) [17:19] The upgrade tool warns me when trying to close the app. [17:19] ChrisMir: yeah, but nothing seemed to work anymore, so i had to =) === marcin_ is now known as thid [17:19] My two audio opptions are RealTek ALC861 (OSS Mixer) annndd... HDA Intel (asla mixer) - the sound is not working. What do I do? Anyyyone? [17:20] jer_: use the Alsa one.

[19:21] !adeptfix [19:21] 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 » [19:21] argh no default compiz on kubuntu [19:21] LiL-JoN, the little ive used that.. it never woeked very well. [19:21] MrBallZ: Read above by the ubotu [19:21] oh well it was dodgey on kubuntu anyway [19:21] Im thinking that no compiz on Kubuntu is a good idea. :) [19:21] genii: i tried that, but still , adept gets a new pid , and keeps running [19:21] since im finding little bugglets with it. [19:22] nosrednaekim: ok sounds good [19:22] djdarkman: hmm, okay. I'll code in that feature tonight [19:22] hmm. isn't flash supposed to work in konqueror now with Gutsy? [19:22] MrBallZ: sudo killall adept [19:22] JohnFlux: thanks, that would be usefull :) [19:22] can somebody help me with a theme called furious weather on super karamba [19:22] fdoving: I dont see it in there [19:22] Gutsy upgrade: The adept upgrade reported an error with debconf and appeared to crash but is still continuing somehow :| [19:22] djdarkman: any other suggestions? [19:23] djdarkman: its good to find someone who uses it :) === lee__ is now known as lee986321 [19:23] Dr_willis: dont like compiz?

[19:24] jim: you need to pastebin dude [19:24] LiL-JoN: yeah. its nice effects.. but personally i think it needs a bit more work .. its slower on the fps for opengl apps [19:24] jim: try using a different mirror [19:24] ok genii iam back [19:24] !pastebin | jim [19:24] jim: that happens usually when the mirror is down [19:24] Dr_willis: what you facing? [19:24] jim: 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) [19:24] checking out the emerald themes right now.. :) gee are they ALL OS-X or Vista variants. :) [19:24] lee986321: faster? [19:24] Assid: whats opengl do? [19:24] lee986321: wb :) [19:24] Assid, right now. ya click on a window and it does NOT come to front. You must click on the title bar. [19:24] yeah faster [19:25] LiL-JoN: run gears.. [19:25] oops [19:25] thanks! [19:25] JohnFlux: it`s anoying sometimes to read the ps aux`s output, and for example if I write a program and search for memory leaks I would probably want to examine it in KB`s but if I`m watching the memory usage of my programs, I`s easyer to watch it in MB`s these days, another feature would probably be making it automaticly bid to ctrl+alt+del :) [19:25] Dr_willis: theres an option for that in cssm .. [19:25] or use the taskmanager in the panel. (which is what i normally do anyway) [19:25] jim: I've got similar errors with "sub process".. but I've downloaded everything... [19:25] it's in the installation step for me :/ [19:25] Assid: idk im lost lol [19:25] Dr_willis: its an option to enable/disable [19:25] Assid, which of the 20 options is it under then? :) it dident do it that way under gnome. [19:25] It's stuck on "Installing the upgrades" :( [19:25] waht was taht page taht has the drivers? [19:25] Dr_willis: i think in the general [19:25] erg I need to make a fast screen adjustment [19:26] Assid, that brings up another Potential issue. Does Gnome and KDe both share the same compiz settings? [19:26] sorry, I will use pastebin next time . And try a different mirror [19:26] Does anyone know what the ramifications are of closing the dist upgrade adept window during the "installing the upgrades" step? It appears to be stuck. [19:26] btw JohnFlux the kde4 kysguard is a greate improvement compared to the kde3 version :) [19:26] i have got realplayerGOLD10 rpm package, how to install it using yum or otherwise?? [19:26] Dr_willis: wouldnt know.. im just a user [19:27] lee986321: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_8.41.7_Driver_Manually [19:27] Stuck on "preparing to configure libexpat" [19:27] Assid, using the 'Raise on Click' option. I check it.. and it unchecks itself. :) heh [19:27] Dr_willis: go to the settings.. and change from KDE to flat file [19:27] the settings where it saves the config [19:27] lee986321: For 8.40.4 just use exact same URL it gives there for the 8.41.7 d/l and intuitively substitute 8.40.4 [19:27] please help me [19:28] apparently the compiz people dont think kde is important to support [19:28] how do i set it to html by default [19:28] *gmail [19:28] Assid, heh - NOW that checked all those box's by default. just setting it to flat file.. wonder whats up with that. [19:29] Assid: I think kwin4 is getting composite support anyway, right? [19:29] genii: i killed all the dpkg ... but it comes back ... [19:29] rabindra: right click on it - should give you an install option. [19:29] Assid, i guess part of the issue is the KDE 'settings' tools fighting with the compiz setting tools. [19:29] Dr_willis: Yes, they do share the settings. i have it on both my kde and gnome, same box and changes in 1 take effect in the other (for same user) [19:29] angasule: not sure mate.. not sure.. [19:29] i use linux for desktop like once a month [19:29] rofl [19:29] comiz works well with kde here [19:29] mike-kubuntu, now that i set it to flat-file and fixed a few settings its working. :) [19:29] mike-kubuntu: certain options act really funny if you use KDE to store the config file [19:29] Dr_willis: there ya go. enjoy mate [19:30] now if i can find an Emerald Theme thats NOT a OS-X or vista spin off. :) [19:30] MrBallZ: Somewhere it must be set to keep respawning then. Open up adept from the menu and check it's settings about running every time or so on [19:30] Captain_Haddock: doesn't give me any installation option [19:30] angasule: whatever i know is what i get for playing on the box for 1-2 hours here and there.. and im done.. thats my beta testing.. thats enough for me to find a few bugs [19:30] what is the plugin for playing wmv files [19:30] Dr_willis: it`s hard but you can find [19:30] so i can install it [19:31] for firefox [19:31] Dr_willis: having hard time looking for some awesome one :P [19:31] Dr_willis: vsta is a osx spinoff.. and leopard copied a few things out of compiz [19:31] if u find some,lemme know :P [19:31] just looking for a useble one. === lee__ is now known as lee986321 [19:31] Dr_willis: dont overgo on the effects [19:31] so far 'vista smoked' seems the best of the bunch. [19:31] vista smoked? [19:31] Now that i figtured out how to get emerald to auto-grab the themes. [19:32] Dr_willis: irritatingg when it hangs there isnt it? [19:32] hehehe [19:32] Fire up emerald-themer tool. ya got to enable cvs, then it can autp-grab themes [19:32] not cvs.. svn [19:32] erg I have a prblem I jsut lost my manual settings for the monitor [19:32] hi again! [19:32] the 'to enable this use this command... ' SHOULD be a 'text selection' box so ya can just cut/past the thing. [19:32] its a hardware issue not a soft ware [19:32] had to type in the command 3 times to get it right. heh [19:32] or a button to just do it. :) [19:32] how can i activate the standby mode in kubuntu? when i go on "log off" i can't see any mode to enter standby mode [19:32] Whenever I start up Gutsy the panels don't appear. How can I get them to appear automatically? [19:33] i need a new battery for my dell .. stupid crap is dead [19:34] what is the plugin for playing wmv files [19:34] for firefox [19:34] so i can install it [19:34] LiL-JoN: xine [19:34] whats xine [19:34] ?

[19:42] Dr_willis: whats that [19:42] i need something like windows where i finds the wireless connection automatically [19:43] Fade2Black, KNetworkManager does that [19:43] but you need to make sure your drivers are set up niceley [19:43] how do I active compiz?

The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [19:43] mean, fdoving: thx :-) [19:44] it install in the restricted drivers thing [19:44] We need to have a few notes on that factoid about the needed ccsm tweaks to get it workign well. [19:44] Right.. One thing left: wifi.. I have a broadcomm BCM94311MCG wifi card in my laptop, and kubuntu shows that I can install the broadcomm 43xx driver for this one in the restricted driver area. When I try to install that driver though, a new window pops up, saying "Specify firmware location".. This window though, is completely disabled, I can not click on a button, or other component, I can not even close it.. When I click on the restricted driver window, [19:44] and click cancel, I get a crash.. How can I install this driver? [19:44] genii iam ready to have fun lol [19:45] lee986321: That link earlier was for manually installing the ati driver specifically for ubuntu [19:45] Dr_willis: can't you put it on the wiki?

[19:46] :) [19:46] lee986321: For 8.40.4 just use exact same URL it gives there for the 8.41.7 d/l and intuitively substitute 8.40.4 [19:46] Dr_willis: yep :) [19:46] ill let you know the stats..i am in 64 bit [19:46] Dr_willis: ill try the Fing Mplayer plugin for firefox [19:46] would kwifimanager work [19:46] lee986321: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_8.41.7_Driver_Manually [19:46] i was wondering if there was a kubuntu specific wiki also. [19:46] or do i need knetwork [19:46] i dont know if it will work since im in ubuntu [19:47] Fade2Black: then why arent you in #ubuntu [19:48] because that channel is going crazy and i like kde better [19:48] fdoving: k,figured that 2 my buttons say they'r button2,any ideas where should i start? :-) [19:48] Fade2Black: then why dont you install kde on ubuntu?

[19:56] TimS, ive noticed that with SOME systems you might not have usb keyboasrd support. depending on their bios in the grub menu. [19:56] Well, during grub. Very annoying, my MoBO supports it, but not pressing ESC to choose my boot options [19:56] TimS, enabling 'legacy usb support' in the bios MIGHT help there. [19:56] Dr_willis: My Bios supports it. [19:56] TimS can you understand what i am trying to say ? [19:56] TimS, bingo.. I have a bios that supports it.. but GRUB dosent work properly with my usb keyboards. I have to use a ps2 keyboasrd on that one machine [19:57] TimS, 'usb legacy' support option in the bios MIGHT fix it. [19:57] !paste bin [19:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about paste bin - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [19:57] It is enabled, I can edit all the BIOS settings with my Keybaord, I cant see a Legacy support option though [19:57] TimS, and i have this issue on only 1 of my 5 machines.. its some odd bios/usb/grub quirn. [19:57] I have the MoBo manula here, lemme see [19:58] What machine is it, out of interest, what make MoBo? [19:58] TimS, whats sad on this ONE box. If i enable usb-legacy. both linux an windows refuse to boot. :(but grub works.. heh heh. [19:58] This is some old Asus AMD64 MB. its about 4 yrs old now i think.

[20:51] LiL-JoN- you can try #ubuntu as well, since that doesn't sound like a KDE-specific problem [20:51] Don't think you can play games and browse the interwebs in Widnows while it's taking its time installing... [20:51] run it in terminal [20:51] Ok, so I have libxvidcore4 and the mplayer codecs installed in my Xine-loving Kaffeine player now. Why can't I play XviD? Kaffeine lags up.

[20:57] BigDaddy, what exactly Heh - hes not sure WHAT he wants.. [20:57] Fade2Blac: what wireless card are you using? [20:57] i do not think that using the 'user' option in fstab alters the file system permissions on the filesystem [20:57] boradman or something like that let me check [20:57] tommymann: Not yet. I did edit my fstab and restart my xserver. I thought that might have done it though [20:58] ahh - hers the probem --> src, try again with non-geek lang [20:58] hola [20:58] broadcom [20:58] I think its a failure of learning the FUNDAMENTALS. :) [20:58] alguien habla español [20:58] bigdaddy: try it in terminal [20:58] !sp | mathias [20:58] Sorry, I don't know anything about sp - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [20:58] BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI [20:58] genii step one done [20:58] bigdaddy: I had an external and I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't mount [20:58] ive done the update multiple times i was able to apt-get install dmraid [20:58] !es | mathias [20:58] mathias: Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda.

I've just upgraded from feisty to gutsy and i'm trying to enable compiz - i think i'm still using kwin, can anyone tell me how to turn it on? [21:02] im going to ignore you [21:02] You might want to check the forums for your problem [21:02] it sounds rather rare. [21:02] but since you got me on ignore.. i wont bother looking for you then.. [21:02] heh [21:03] tommymann: this may be dumb to ask, but I need to mount my new partition before moving my /home to it right? [21:03] Thers a lot of interesting 'ideas' as to how people should be helped in #ubuntu floating about. [21:03] yeah, normally /home should be on the most stable partition [21:03] this sucks [21:03] i like to keep /home on its own hard drive [21:04] I'm with you [21:04] Dr_willis: that is what I am doing, moving it to a new partition [21:04] mount new drive. like to /media/newhome COPY home to it. [21:04] Then move /home to some other name /oldhome [21:04] Fade2Blac: are you using ndiswrapper? [21:04] hay all here is a question for you. [21:04] then Mount /media/newhome to /home [21:04] is how i normally do it. [21:04] Dr_willis: Can I change the name (Newhome) at anytime after mounting? [21:04] hi guys [21:05] then if it works and you verify it .. and only then. remove the old home. :_ [21:05] BigDaddy, of course. :) [21:05] I back Dr_willis on that one bigdaddy [21:05] how can i move listed and grepped files to another directory ? [21:05] or ya can just link it. [21:05] ln -s /home /media/newhome [21:05] I am 58% done getting the updates, and about 30 mins away from having to shutdown my laptop. If i hibernate and power it back on later. would that continue the update? or is it better to just start over? [21:05] TrueFX: xargs [21:05] ls |grep debug | ...??? mv /destination [21:05] how should i use it ? [21:05] can u write explicitely ? [21:05] Dr_willis: the plan is this. Move my /home to it's own partition. Whack kubuntu 7.04 and clean install 7.10 [21:06] shadowhywind: why not just lock the session? [21:06] * xevious starts strigi indexing [21:06] m [21:06] BigDaddy, thats doable. [21:06] genii I made it this far http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41223/ [21:06] how do I change my software sources in Kubuntu? [21:06] hello problem with x as normal user "I830 Vblank Pipe Setup Failed 0 " [21:06] BigDaddy, i normally manually edit the fstab after an install to point to the proper home. [21:06] shadowhywind: if you hibernate, it will stop the update. [21:06] i dotn trust the installer to do it. :) [21:06] because i am going home for the weekend, and want to take the laptop with me [21:06] back [21:07] bacon333: sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list [21:07] k [21:07] fdoving: ?? [21:07] but how would I change it during an install?> [21:07] bacon333, do you mean where you get your packages from? [21:07] shadowhywind: I would just let it finish, less you would have to start all over [21:07] yes [21:07] lee986321: Thats the same url you keep pasting [21:07] well, it's hanging at 82 percent [21:07] "scanning the mirrors" [21:07] oh wait [21:07] nvm, its good now :D [21:07] Dr_willis: just out of curiosity, why aren't mount points in /mnt ? [21:08] isn't that what mnt stands for? [21:08] bacon333, /etc/apt/sources.list [21:08] its good now [21:08] no need :D [21:08] lee986321: Or else you still keep trying to run it the same way instead of how i suggested and the install method I posted shows [21:08] chould someone privmsg me their sources.list [21:09] hello can somebody help me with my firefox crashing after trying to play a mpeg file with mplayer (it does this everytime i try to play a mpeg or any file with mplayer) === linuxmce is now known as linuxmce666666 [21:09] I wonder when Windows 666 will be coming out..

[21:26] geniigrr restarting that line [21:26] hasse: Sounds like you have problems writing to your file system by some reason.

[21:27] kb/s [21:27] johey, i done have any problems if the archive is a rar archive [21:27] rickey: so divide by 8 [21:28] rickey: ~32KB/s [21:28] hi [21:28] !bemused [21:29] Sorry, I don't know anything about bemused - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:29] hummm i ant getting that much [21:29] only about 27.1 [21:29] bemused server is not there for gutsy [21:29] hasse: Okay. I don't know then. If you are sure you have free disk space on the partition, I can't tell what's wrong. It would be easiest to blame the archive. [21:29] I am about to buy a new computer, mainly for desktop usage with a Kubuntu GNU/Linux system. The hardest choice is the display adapter. What can you recommend? I want one with free drivers for the kernel and Xorg, still decent hardware specs. [21:29] rickey: Thats reasonable [21:29] rickey: There can be overhead in a few places [21:30] johey, 100gigs of space, and the archive works on a windows machine [21:30] genii grrr erasing hdd and restarting grrrrr [21:30] no joke. updating kubuntu feisty to gutsy is the absolute worse experience I've ever had on gnu/linux in the last 2 years. I had to restore a backup. how am I supposed to upgrade? none of the instructions work at all what-so-ever. anyone know what I am talking about? [21:30] hasse: Ok. I don't know then. [21:30] so on a download like this you cant exspect to get a high bit rate [21:30] vbgunz, I know it doesn't help now but I would never recommend using upgrade option [21:30] vbgunz: just do a reinstall but use apt-get dselect-upgrade if you want [21:31] I can't access windows shares using Kubuntu [21:31] I get the infamous NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME error [21:31] the weird thing is that sometimes I can access shares subdirectories [21:31] but I can't access any files [21:32] aro, what do you recommend? [21:32] permissions issues [21:32] the transfer fails either via konqueror, mount.cifs, mount.smbfs or smbclient [21:32] but works under Windows [21:32] vbgunz: dpkg --set-selections < ./selectionfile (before reinstall) then do a server install put the file back and apt-get dselect-upgrade (or just use aptitude it normally works much better than apt-get) [21:32] !permitions [21:32] Sorry, I don't know anything about permitions - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:32] ups [21:32] !permissions [21:32] The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux [21:32] vbgunz, I have always just had two partitions, /home and /, then I just backup whatever I need, format /, and install the newest version [21:32] you guy,s are doing a hell of a good job , thank for being here [21:33] poison--: it isn't windows that can't access my shares, it is I who can't access windows shares on the network [21:33] this is the only computer with linux [21:33] i know [21:33] and u have to change permissions in linux.. not [21:33] win [21:33] aro, no way. I need to upgrade. I do not wish to reinstall. this shouldn't really be an option :( [21:34] I'm not sharing anything, I'm trying to access a share that's hosted on a windows computer [21:34] if I try to use "smbclient //Server/Share" [21:34] vbgunz, it's a lot less painful, but okay [21:34] it fails with the error [21:34] vbgunz: just use interactive aptitude then [21:34] sometimes, if I try to use "smbclient //Server/Share/Dir" it works [21:34] sometimes it doesn't [21:34] kovensky: try just use mount -t cifs [21:34] and I can't access any files [21:34] sudo chmod o+w -R [21:34] add the dir after the cmd [21:35] kovensky: cifs is the protocol used by new versions of windows [21:35] sumtin like: sudo chmod o+w -R /home/mrp/STUFF/ [21:36] I have a graphic driver problem with the upgradet gutsy (7.04->7.10) the standard installed fglx driver with the ati 3d acceleration works not so fluently with the ati x600 (Hp nx8220). for example the drop down comboboxes in all kde application don't wor well ) [21:36] poison--: I'm on Kubuntu trying to access a windows share. Windows don't have Unix permissions. The share is "Full Control" to Everyone [21:36] Hi all - I have a problem. Tracker says everything's indexed but i can't search anything in either the deskbar or the tracker search tool. Can anyone help me? [21:36] another question is why anonymous login doesn't work [21:36] I have to login as Administrator [21:36] trilobit: did you have XGL/compiz running in fiesty? [21:37] mkay [21:37] no without any xgl I'm runninng kdm [21:37] trilobit: but do you have XGL installed? [21:37] h3sp4wn: how do you use interactive aptitude? [21:37] h3sp4wn: ls gets stuck on "lsing" the mount contents [21:37] vbgunz: sudo aptitude === brad is now known as skyion [21:38] heh [21:39] U to mark upgradable [21:39] h3sp4wn: ls can't access the drive, I have to -KILL it [21:39] kovensky: with cifs ? [21:39] yes [21:40] the smb: protocol on Konqueror works up to accessing the computer [21:40] kovensky: To Vista ? [21:40] when I try to access the computer, it asks a username and a password [21:40] the server is XP === elena___ is now known as frunza [21:40] gutsy ? [21:40] I was just considering switching back to the 64bit verion, does wiine still have problem with 64 bit? [21:40] yes [21:40] BigDaddy: i believe so [21:40] BigDaddy: The one in the repos should be fine [21:40] damn [21:40] BigDaddy: probably since it is emulating 32 bit windows [21:40] I input Administrator and a empty password (anonymous logins aren't working for Kubuntu but work for the other windows machines. why?) [21:40] guess I'll stick with 386 release [21:40] :P [21:41] BigDaddy: If you want a newer version then it won't [21:41] then I can see the shares [21:41] nosrednaekim: Yes I have installed xserver-xgl [21:41] but if I enter the share it says "file or folder doesn't exists" [21:41] trilobit: remove it, the way xgl is right now, if you have it, it will automaticcaly start [21:41] if I directly type the path to the mentioned "Dir" [21:41] I can see it's contents [21:41] but can't copy or see any of the files [21:41] i am jhaving trouble upgradinmg my system [21:42] it sayd new version available but..after downloading..it hangs on installing..and doesn do anythinh for hours [21:43] BigDaddy: The version in ubuntu64 is a 32 bit application built against 32 bit libs [21:43] I had that problem too, but it eventually happened. I think the default repositories were pretty bogged down yesterday. [21:43] hey, is /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-suspend-linux still the default suspend script for kde? [21:43] h3sp4wn: so it works, just without any 64bit optimization? [21:43] !compiz [21:43] 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 [21:44] wastedfluid: probably as the power-manager uses HAL to tell the somputer to suspend [21:44] !upgrade [21:44] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [21:44] !hangs [21:44] Sorry, I don't know anything about hangs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:44] * nosrednaekim thinks its kinda silly to try to optimize 32 bit windows for 64 bit [21:44] h3sp4wn: when smbclient connects anonymously, I get access denied errors to do even a ls [21:44] BigDaddy: It works as a 32 bit application [21:44] kovensky: connect using a username and password then === jussio1 is now known as jussi01 [21:45] !upgrade problems [21:45] Hi Guys having trouble with my Advanced Desktop Effects Setting compiz, its empty [21:46] no setting [21:46] s [21:46] restricted drivers for ati is installed [21:46] h3sp4wn: then any command gets stuck and timeout [21:46] I am unable to upgrade my kubuntu, after downloading all teh updates it hangs on installation [21:46] wastedfluid: yeah... it uses HAL. === me_ is now known as Keda === slesa is now known as traene [21:46] nosrednaekim: thank you I will try it [21:46] I'm having problems with nvidia drivers. After using the repositories, and trying directly from nvidia, I finally used envy, but I'm still getting staccato video playback with kaffeine. [21:47] anyone else downloading the DVD ISO torrent at the moment? Mine is slow as hell. I would have thought it would be fast today [21:47] meson10: Are you trying to upgrade between releases with adept ? [21:47] adept_manager [21:48] the nvidia problem is post gutsy upgrade === DarkHack is now known as D[a]rkH[a]ck === joti002 is now known as tomda [21:48] hi guys [21:48] small problem [21:48] while downloading the upgrade packages for edgy last night, there was a power outage and my computer restarted, now apt is all corrupted [21:48] problems?? are there any problems than [21:48] h3sp4wn: adept_manager [21:48] meson10: If I was you I would do - sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop and then login via console and do sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade [21:48] is there any way to fix that or do i actually need to do a fresh install [21:49] meson10: (upgrading kde whilst its running can cause issues) [21:49] h3sp4wn: Hmm Ok [21:49] hi [21:50] anyone else having nvidia problems, or know of fixes? [21:50] meson10: or just do the aptitude command from in X but its slightly less safe [21:50] so, can apt be fixed? because id really rather not do a fresh install [21:50] is it complaining about being locked? [21:50] coreymon77: what exactly is corrupted [21:51] used Envy to install tho [21:51] coreymon77: Are you certain its apt (don't say apt if it may be dpkg) [21:52] mines a 5200, I even tried manual install with the 3 different driver files. [21:52] in envy, I mean [21:52] !envy [21:52] 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! === traene is now known as slesa === slesa is now known as traene === traene is now known as slesa [21:54] w/o envy, my machine was about 1/10 speed. I tried the repositories, no success. === slesa is now known as traene [21:55] h3sp4wn: ill give you the error [21:55] h3sp4wn: when i try to open adept [21:56] mpstump: did you try the restricted-manager? [21:56] The nvidia page is vague about which driver to use. Is it possible my card is now a "legacy" card, even though previous installs it wasn't? [21:56] Ok [21:56] How do you change the login screen? [21:57] mpstump: I'm using an even older card, MX series === mk is now known as Kamijo [21:57] mpstump: I don't think it is a legacy card, but useplain oldnvidia-glx to be safe [21:57] and nvidia-glx is working perfectly [21:57] try running 'apt-get remove nvidia-glx && apt-get install nvidia-glx" [21:57] legacy is like TNT2 [21:57] TNT2 is win [21:57] I have one :D [21:57] !kdm [21:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about kdm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:57] Ok, I'll go back and try restricted repos again and report ack. Thanks [21:58] mpstump: not restricted repos... the restricted-manager, which sets the card up for you [21:58] How do you change the Kubuntu login screen? [21:58] and I still can't do anything on other computer's shares :'( [21:58] bacon333: google it. [21:58] I did. Didn't find anything related.. [21:58] yes buth with the glx how it works with Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 ? [21:58] or too related.. [21:59] !emerald themes [21:59] Sorry, I don't know anything about emerald themes - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:59] kovensky, after that, what command to update xorg.conf, etc? [21:59] bacon333: actually, I think there is a kcontrol odule for it. [21:59] mpstump: I didn't have to change anything [21:59] huh [21:59] but if you're using gutsy [22:00] bacon333: indeed, "kdmtheme" [22:00] go to the control panel [22:00] ok [22:00] and choose the icon to the right of the keyboard icon [22:00] a monitor with a "x" inside [22:00] Where is it nosrednaekim? [22:00] :/ [22:00] bacon333: in the repositories [22:00] i just downloaded a live .iso, can i drag it to a mounted blank cd-r disc on my desktop to burn it, or use gnome-baker ? [22:01] no no, how do you access the kde control thing? :S [22:01] I'm new to KDE, sort of. [22:01] bacon333: ah... alt+f2, "kcontrol" [22:01] k [22:01] what do i install so i can SSH into my machine at a later time? [22:01] (just ssh?) [22:01] The_Machine: "openssh" [22:02] aptg-get install ssh [22:02] couldn't find package openssh [22:02] oh [22:02] just ssh [22:02] k [22:02] it was openssh in fiesty I think.. sorry [22:02] oh, yeah [22:02] that's why i even asked the question - i always used openssh too :P [22:02] apt-cache search ssh [22:02] so anyone here installed emerald and actually got the themes? [22:02] ok [22:02] it is openssh-server [22:02] rand - just download them from somewhere [22:02] just type in emerald themes into google or something [22:03] yeah kovensky, i get it now [22:03] h3sp4wn: www.pastebin.ca/742814 [22:03] rand_acs: go to www.kde-look.com [22:04] nosrednaekim: yeah I know you can download individual themes there, but I was hoping to get the standard lot [22:04] it isn't working [22:04] h3sp4wn: and when i try typing apt-setup in konsole is says command not found [22:04] rand_acs: ah.. well I think they removed them from the repositories because of liscencing issues [22:04] nosrednaekim: that would explain it :) [22:05] coreymon77: have you ran sudo apt-get update? [22:05] h3sp4wn: I had broken packages. i was never informed about it but think I fixed them in aptitude. I now have a version upgrade button in adept. I hope this works. [22:05] sub[t]rnl: it did say to run apt-setup first [22:05] but ill try [22:06] coreymon77: well, then run that first ;) [22:06] grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr f*ckin upgrade [22:06] hey guys I still cant get apt working [22:06] on feisty [22:06] no luck [22:07] sam64: whats wrong with it? [22:07] i tried apt-get update and it gave me this [22:07] I'm updating atm and I got an error saying a debconf package migh not be working state, how serious is it? [22:07] RytmenPinnen: which package? [22:07] it says the debconf package [22:07] h3sp4wn: www.pastebin.ca/742821 [22:07] "subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Segmentation fault), core dumped" [22:07] nosrednaekim: it has a broken package in it, and I want it to just ignore it [22:08] nosrednaekim: sub[t]rnl you guys can look at that too [22:08] so, any hope of fixing? [22:08] coreymon77: thanks ;) [22:08] I've seen the Dynamic MMAP one before [22:08] does anyone know how to install compiz-fusion? [22:08] sam64: can you just lock it? [22:08] sub[t]rnl: whats it mean? [22:08] I tried to tpress report bug too but konqueror refuses to start [22:09] you need to set your Apt::Cache-config: to a higher value [22:09] and it will fix it [22:09] sec, let me find out where [22:09] nosrednaekim: Im not worried about recovering it, I just want to install k3b so I can burn an ISO [22:09] and i do that how? [22:09] yippii [22:09] hey guys, what's the best/recommended VNC server to use to remotely access the GUI of your linux box? [22:09] tekteen: yup. simple... do you have an ATI card?

[22:10] tekteen: you need XGL first [22:10] I did [22:10] coreymon77: go into /etc/apt/ and open apt.conf [22:10] ok [22:10] waylandbill: not from the state of the mirrors [22:10] nosrednaekim: I dont have synaptic :\ [22:10] another error "Could not install "/var/chache/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.2-5ubuntu12_i386.deb" [22:10] I did it on feisty before [22:10] sam64: umm [22:10] coreymon77: then add this --> APT::Cache-Limit 40000000 [22:10] corey - why? give me an example. [22:10] hlep me please, I'm kind of worried I'll trash my system with all these errors [22:10] The_Machine: what are you trying to access it form [22:10] another .. computer. I'm not sure what the quesiton is, exactly. [22:10] anyone? [22:10] The_Machine: OS? [22:10] how do u install xgl [22:11] I mean, Computer A does a VNC session to computer B running VNC Server [22:11] both windows and linux [22:11] tekteen: "sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl" [22:11] another error "Could not install "/var/chache/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.2-5ubuntu12_i386.deb" [22:11] <[Relic]> anyway to use cp to copy a drive with all the . copying properly? [22:11] coreymon77: after you've added that to the apt.conf, run sudo apt-get update [22:11] RytmenPinnen: just wait for it to finish.. [22:11] k [22:12] could not install x11 common, the errors just keep comin, and as far as I know x11 is pretty important [22:12] coreymon77, okay, yeah - linux and windows machines will both be accessing it via VNC [22:12] [Relic]: -R? [22:12] coreymon77: You can remove the lists [22:12] [Relic]: you can use dd to copy a drive. [22:12] it is installed [22:12] <[Relic]> nosrednaekim, -R didn't seem to work since none were there [22:12] then look at the bot answer [22:12] !vnc [22:12] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.

[22:13] sam64: what list? [22:13] isnt that compiz not fusion [22:13] sub[t]rnl: umm i cant seem to find apt.conf [22:13] nosrednaekim: the package list [22:13] coreymon77: dpkg --clear-avail (won't hurt either) [22:13] tekteen: its compiz-fusion don't worry [22:13] coreymon77: create it [22:13] also, what do i need to be able to burn mp3 files to CD using k3b? :) [22:13] sam64: probably not... did you try forcing a removal? [22:13] The_Machine: as audioor as data? [22:13] k [22:13] audio [22:13] :P [22:13] h3sp4wn: NickPresta had this issue the other night on one of his boxes, this seemed to fix his [22:13] now the upgrade seems to be stuck at 3% what do I do? [22:14] h3sp4wn: hopefully it works for corymon too [22:14] nosrednaekim: yeah - it said I should re-install it, then uninstall [22:14] huh [22:14] the terminal window is empty [22:14] okay, give me a sec, im gonna open irc on my kubuntu box, i have it open on my mac at the moment [22:14] I can't find any login window controls in the kcontrol thing [22:14] anyone heard of a problem with ace archives if it's more than 40 files ? [22:14] :( [22:14] sub[t]rnl: If it was working perfectly for him and the reason it happened was power failure don't see how that is possible [22:15] libk3b2-mp3 maybe? [22:15] :P [22:15] okay then [22:15] is it possible to cancel the update half way through if its stuck? will my system be trashed when I reboot? [22:15] nosrednaekim: now what should I do? [22:15] can you tell me again what the thing im supposed to add to the apt.conf file i just created was [22:15] coreymon77: then add this --> APT::Cache-Limit 40000000 [22:15] nosrednaekim: actually no.. that was before I tried to force it. after I tried it said this.. [22:16] h3sp4wn: NickPresta had this come up after he stopped an ugrade [22:16] sam64: looking into it [22:16] The_Machine: yup [22:16] nosrednaekim: E: Option -force: Configuration item specification must have an =.

I tried 'apt-get -force remove', but it didnt work [22:19] try apt-get --force remove [22:19] coreymon, any suggestion for which VNC server i use? [22:19] quick question, does anyone know if compiz will still be usable with KDE 4, or does KWin take over all of the candy now? [22:19] if you are using the full name of a switch a lot of times you need to add the second dash [22:20] RytmenPinnen: it won't trash it if it isn't installing packages. If it is fetching you will be ok [22:20] its 3% installing packages [22:20] nmjohnso: "--force is not understood" [22:20] there, were a bunch of errors earlier [22:20] well now THAT is interesting [22:20] try -f instead of force? [22:20] still doesn't work [22:21] and what are you removing? [22:21] amarok keeps on asking me to install mp3 support, even though I installed it.. [22:21] i personally use freenx, but thats techinically not vnc [22:21] -f is to fix broken packages with apt [22:21] ah yes thats right i'm sorry [22:21] sub[t]rnl: okay, apt-get update is running [22:21] coreymon: woot [22:21] yay!

[22:22] Amarok can't play mp3's properly :( [22:22] hello, if do-release-upgrade stopped due to some broken 3rd party packages i removed now, is it safe to run "aptitude dist-upgrade" to continue the update or should i run do-release-upgrade again or do something completely different? [22:22] and adept worked! [22:22] thanks alot [22:22] np [22:23] moofoo: have a look in interactive aptitude at what the problems are fix manually [22:23] anyone know if wine will run ie ? [22:23] nmjohnso: that seems to be working [22:23] sub[t]rnl: are the main repos still slow? or is it better now [22:23] h3sp4wn: the problems are should be fixed and aptitude dist-upgrade does not complain but i wonder if do-release-upgrade does some additional magic [22:24] ok the -f comman should fix all the broken installs on the system....should being key word [22:24] nmjohnso: part of my problem is that I have an un-fixable package somehow [22:24] so is it ok to continue the feisty->gutsy upgrade with the "dist-upgrade" ?! [22:25] i need help!

[22:25] coreyman: you could download an alternate cd, burn it, and upgrade that way === karsten_ is now known as vblank [22:26] I have another weird issue, I can't drag windows from one desktop to another anymore, on compiz that is [22:26] sub[t]rnl: what about a different mirror [22:27] coreymon: sure, give it a shot. the adept upgrade is pretty seemless, and I would use that if it was available [22:27] sub[t]rnl: any suggestions as to what mirror? [22:28] Anyone got any tips on putting a working wastebin on the desktop instead of as an applet in kicker? [22:28] will kde4 be in hardy [22:28] I would assume so... [22:28] dunno [22:28] will it make it in to gusty [22:28] atlfalcons866: kde4 will be available way before hardy if kde4 is released when its supposed to === braier is now known as thunder-storm [22:28] ah got it, "Rotate Cube -> Edge Flip Move", damn this thing has many options :p [22:29] I get this: "Amarok cannot play mp3 files" when I try to play mp3 files in Amarok [22:29] mh ok so any information on what do-release-upgrade does after the initial checks and modifying the sources? [22:29] I then click the "install MP3 support" button [22:29] atlfalcons866: it will be available as a gutsy package when it comes out [22:29] and it installs it, but once I restart amarok, it still can't play it [22:29] :( [22:30] Hi, I'm ubgraded from Feisty to Gutsy (Kubuntu). Now I ran adept_updater, it did two updates for gutsy but in the end the sceen reads 'A new distribution version is available! Click next if you want to upgrade now. === jussio1 is now known as jussi01 [22:30] Any ideas? [22:30] nmjohnso: it wasnt able to repair openoffice, but I do have k3b now, which is what I wanted [22:30] mw46: do you want hardy heron (or whatever its called) [22:30] no, not yet;-) [22:31] mw46, I've heard the upgrade button is there even if you've upgraded allready [22:31] mw46: its just a little bug, dont worry about it [22:31] if you succesfully ran the update once you most likely have updated it too [22:32] OK;-) I'll ignore it for now. [22:32] hmm, is it safer to dl an iso and update with that? cause the update has frezed at 3% [22:32] Kubuntu rocks. [22:32] <_michael> hello I was wondering if I were to upgrade to Gutsy through adept would my highly customized settings for all my programs get overwritten? [22:32] is it possible to use kde4 now? [22:32] RytmenPinnen: are you using the main repos? [22:32] yes [22:32] atlfalcons866: if you want a beta yes [22:32] atlfalcons866: not really ... if you're a tester or a contributer [22:33] atlfalcons866: is not scheduled for release till december [22:33] I've downloaded everything and it has installed 3 % [22:33] _michael: probably not [22:33] tried to boot my media center amd64 x2 with ubuntu7.10 desktop-amd64.iso, but it stays on a black screen - should i try to boot with safe graphics instead, or is there another problem? [22:33] RytmenPinnen: then its not frozen, the main repos are just quite bogged down [22:33] but I'm not downloading [22:33] RytmenPinnen: try using a different mirror [22:33] _michael: you're settings shouldn't get copied over . [22:33] RytmenPinnen: what are you doing then? [22:34] I've dled everything, and 3% installed and now I'm stuck [22:34] does the kde4 packages give a full kde4 desktop or does it just allow you to run kde4 programs [22:34] does gusty kubuntu have same features as ubuntu like automatic printer setup? [22:34] stuck? [22:34] for how long [22:34] yup, nothing happens [22:34] the terminal is blank [22:34] about 10 minutes now [22:34] atlfalcons866: kubuntu=ubuntu except for the DE === D[a]rkH[a]ck is now known as DarkHack [22:34] RytmenPinnen: is there a window open waiting for your input? [22:34] I'm somewhat worried that I wont be booting If I cancel and restart [22:34] no [22:35] <_michael> atlfalcons866: OK, but I have removed some of the default software I didn't need (therefore the kubuntu-desktop meta package isn't installed) would that package get installed with all the extra stuff I've removed (ie would I get say kooka and digikam back and have to remove them again)? [22:35] I cant even hide the terminal [22:35] can you look at the console and see what's the last there? [22:35] RytmenPinnen: I've tried it being stuck for more than twenty on Feisty. If you can afford being patient you should give it some more time [22:35] nothing, its blank [22:35] _michael: your settings are saved in your /home folder [22:35] RytmenPinnen: ahh, nevermind [22:35] does any one know how to configure a pcmcia network card wireless g notebook adapter bye linksys [22:36] _michael: if you remove a program the settings are still there [22:36] there was some errors, concerning x11 too [22:36] michael: depends, what card are we talking here [22:36] i just installed 7.10, and i can not stand this dolphin browser. could someone please tell me how to make konqueror the default again? [22:36] chemisus: right click on a folder then change it to konquer [22:36] i have checked system settings for default applications, could not find anything there [22:37] <_michael> atlfalcons866: I know but would I be forced to remove all the packages from kubuntu-desktop all over again? [22:37] atlfalcons866, im pretty sure i tried that. tried opening a folder with konqueror and setting it to always open with [22:37] anyone have any problems with the wine configurator in gutsy yet? [22:37] _michael: i upgraded from kubuntu fiesty and still have i my programs [22:37] RytmenPinnen: there is also a log file written in /var/log/dist-upgrade/... maybe that gives a hint. [22:38] michael: huh? 7.10 uses dolphin? [22:38] k, I'll take a look at that [22:38] michael: i thought that was not until kde4 [22:38] coreymon: they've made a port of it [22:38] michael: whoops! sorry didnt mean to highlight [22:38] nicolai_: why? isnt it not done yet? [22:38] <_michael> atlfalcons866: Ok thank you [22:38] it has an fcc id of pkw wpc54g-2 on it [22:38] atlfalcons866, yea, just tried it again. any subfolder that i click on in konqueror, it opens it in a new window of dolphin, and if i close it and open the folder again, it opens it in dolphin [22:39] chemisus: try removing dolphin [22:39] atlfalcons866, that was my next guess, but i wasnt sure if that would break file browsing or not [22:39] I am running kubuntu 7.1 yes [22:39] guys what do you thing of kubuntu 7.10 and the many problems it seems to have [22:39] nicolai_: isnt dolphin not finished yet? [22:39] why kubuntu uses actually dolphin not d3lphin? i thought dolphin kde3 dev stopped and d3lphin is the kde3 fork under development? [22:40] coreymon: In my experience on Gutsy, dolphin is still unstable, but otherwise dolphin should be a fairly simple program I think, so stability wasn't hard to achieve. [22:40] chemisus: it shouldnt break it [22:40] atlfalcons866, works fine now [22:40] atlfalcons866, thanks =) [22:40] mw46, http://pastebin.ca/742853 there's some of it === KennethP_ is now known as KennethP [22:40] wesley: it was just released, of course its gonna have a few problems [22:40] from the main log [22:40] wesley: give it some time === ubuntu is now known as thunder-storm [22:40] dolphins the default file manager in kde 4 [22:40] i know [22:40] but by then it will be finished [22:40] and stable [22:40] dolphin just doesnt seem like it has many options [22:41] i couldnt even find a way to sort by file type in dolphin =/ [22:41] chemisus: thats the point [22:41] chemisus: its not as bloated [22:41] chemisus: just use konqueror [22:41] lontra, i am [22:41] mw46, first error is in line 81 [22:41] coreymon: customizability doesn't equal bloat [22:41] chemisus: but i agree with you ... i prefer konqueror over dolphin too [22:41] i used ubuntu for almost a year, and i switched to kubuntu just because of konqueror as a file browser [22:41] speaking of both [22:42] how do you set custom actions in dolphin? [22:42] it doesn't seem to read the ones I set for konqueror [22:42] chemisus: that's one of my main reason for kde is konqueror [22:42] lontra: i know, but konq is slightly bloated, and dolphin is probably not finished development yet [22:42] you can use konqueor as a file manager in gnome [22:42] what about my pcmcia card [22:42] seems to be one at line 35 too [22:42] chemisus: er ... that's what i mean ... i mean that's one of my main reasons i use kde [22:42] lontra: it will be better when kde4 comes [22:42] Dolphin i can work with it its nice but Konqueror is better but not in look [22:42] atlfalcons866: sure but it's not as integrated or as fast ... [22:42] i have big problems on kubuntu :( is someone available for help pleaseee? === root_ is now known as Angelus === sexcapade is now known as tekstacy [22:43] i have big problems on kubuntu :( is someone available for help pleaseee? [22:43] michael: i already asked, what card [22:43] i cant stand nautilus [22:43] i cant stand dolphin [22:43] atm anyways [22:43] coreymon: imo ... konqueror is far from bloated. it has a lot of features, yes ... and it may not be the most user friendly but it has way less bloat than firefox, epiphany, and so on [22:43] !ask | Angelus [22:43] Angelus: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) [22:43] why release a product like that when its not even close to being finished? [22:43] i like dolphin , its simple, and quick actually. [22:43] dolphin's not bad [22:43] trying to use the alternate CD to upgrade. It's not coming up automagically and if I try to run the cdupgrade executable, it's bitching that permission is denied...even though I'm running it as root....what's going on here? [22:43] ive not had any speed issues with konqueror [22:44] coreymon: I answerred it is a wpcs54g-2 [22:44] i would rather have the other programs open up items, not the file manager handling everything. [22:44] * lontra hopes kde 4 isn't so simple by trying to 'gnomize' it [22:44] it doesnt feel bloated to me, in fact ive noticed more responsiveness with konqueror then nautilus [22:44] Did anybody else have problems while Upgrading...I'm failing to fetch packages from Amarok and kOffice. Is this a known error? [22:44] lontra: konq does everything though, file browser, web browser, previewer for everything, text editor, picture viewer, etc [22:44] RytmenPinnen: what's the space situation on your box? [22:44] michael: chipset [22:44] i dont use konqueror as a web browser [22:44] http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease [22:44] * moofoo uses krusader and mc for most file related tasks anyway :) [22:44] coreymon: exactly! the beauty of konqi! [22:44] The first problem is in line 73:-( [22:44] lontra: thats too much [22:44] i use konqueror for everything [22:44] nah [22:44] about 18 gigs free [22:44] lontra: file manager should be file manager [22:44] Before that there are some timeouts while downloading:-( [22:44] i will still use konqueror for everything in kde4 [22:44] konq is like the IE for linux :) [22:45] it tries to do everything. [22:45] even in / ?? [22:45] ill admit, konqueror does a bit to much for me, such as all the previews, but as file browsing i prefer it [22:45] coreymon: i disagree ... why do i need 3 programs when one can do it all? [22:45] i can't install kubuntu , it crashes, i solved that by installing a command line system first, then apt-get xorg, then installing nvidia drivers, installed kde, installed kdm, rebooted, worked fine. opened adept, tried to install kubuntu-desktop, crashed at 92%, i rebooted into safe mode , installed the rest with apt, i rebooted into normal mode, it crashes when it tried to start kdm, but if i start kdm in safe mode, it works, but at normal boot [22:45] gorlak_: not really, dont compare it to ie [22:45] my pc crashes. [22:45] yes, I have only one partition [22:45] most likely 3 different programs will do their tasks better then the one that does all 3 [22:45] first thing i do in a kubuntu install is wipe away the customizations kubuntu has made to simplify the profile [22:45] A process called beagled-helper is using a huge ammount of my CPU, what is it? [22:46] Is it beagle? because I dont need that running really, is it safe to kill it? [22:46] Did anybody else have problems while Upgrading...I'm failing to fetch packages from Amarok and kOffice. and upgrading ends. [22:46] michael: correction woc54g [22:46] michael: what chipset? [22:46] mw46, you think I can still cancel the update, and try again, or, Dl an iso and burn? [22:46] will someone take a look at my compiz, in pastebin compiz output & xorg.conf [22:46] i know it doesnt have the same amount of problems, but konq does seem like its trying to do everything, and every file [22:46] http://pastebin.com/m11ec80c8 [22:46] coreymon: wpc54g [22:46] michael: chipset, not card [22:46] michael: ralink, broadcom [22:47] RytmenPinnen: I don't think your upgrade will go much any more:-( At least not in that round:-( [22:47] coreymon: i do not know [22:47] michael: give me a sec [22:47] somebody knows an answer for my problem pleasee? im desperate :( [22:47] You could try to run it again and see if that helps.

[23:10] well this is truly interesting, I think I'm updating to gutsy like a normal update with adept [23:10] amd64 / winxp32 bit media center pc is running on 64-bit hardware, right? [23:10] Hello all. How can I enable "full upgrade" button in Adept? [23:10] vlt: if its not enabled, that means there is nothing to update [23:10] when will be kde4 default? [23:11] probably after it's not in beta stage anymore [23:11] heh [23:11] * xevious is getting really frustrated with compiz not remembering where his windows were [23:11] maybe it does and your forgetting! [23:11] vlt: you have to do "update" and wait, if there will be opinion do this [23:11] does anyone know if what I'm doing is possible [23:11] sub[t]rnl: har har [23:11] hehe [23:12] vlt: fetch upgrades [23:12] [01:10] well this is truly interesting, I think I'm updating to gutsy like a normal update with adept [23:12] sub[t]rnl: i have it set to remember window positions [23:12] RytmenPinnen: yes, its the recommended way to upgrade [23:12] i dont get compiz fusion beryl was so easying and now they removed ir from the packing does any one know how to install beryl [23:12] xevious: with the smart positioning? [23:12] sub[t]rnl: yeah [23:12] my update crashed after 3% installed and now I'm updating with adept as regular system update [23:12] fairman: I already did this. [23:12] sub[t]rnl, [23:12] using adept to upgrade between distro's I would call suicide [23:13] vlt: and do you have Gutsy, od Feisty? [23:13] well see what happens :D [23:13] fairman: still Feisty [23:13] h3sp4wn, heh, it really can be very buggy [23:13] h3sp4wn: What would you prefer? [23:13] and dist-upgrade.py took 800mb in *physical* RAM (1400mb in virtual memory) while in the cleaning up stage [23:14] h3sp4wn: worked fine for me [23:14] I'm gonna burn a gutsy iso.............. hmm, now something is happening [23:14] i think i stick at feisty i can install kdenlive by just adding the packings [23:14] How do I regenerate grub menus? [23:14] !works for me [23:14] Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. [23:14] vlt: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php - check this, paragraph about Upgrading from feisty [23:14] noam_: you sure it wasn't just buffering the ram? [23:14] free -m can be deceiving [23:15] my computer actually got slower. i have 1GB RAM. i closed firefox and amarok etc and followed it cautiously in ksysguard [23:15] !grub [23:15] grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[23:16] wesley: kde4 will probably be default in 8.10 [23:16] (or -ck patches) [23:16] wesley: that would be my guess [23:16] lontra: unlikely [23:16] at the earliest [23:16] noam_: interesting [23:16] lontra: 8.10 is a long term release [23:16] lontra: it will have to be the version after [23:16] JohnFlux: no it's not ... 8.04 is [23:16] how i go to tty? ctrl+alt+F1 didn't work [23:16] lontra: opps, yeah [23:16] w/e [23:16] kde4 will probably be a bunch of bugs connected by features for at least half a year after it's out of beta stage [23:17] kde4 will be available for gutsy as a seperate package [23:17] noam_: pescimist alert! [23:17] it's always curious why so many people ask about kde4 ... i wonder what's wrong with kde 3? it's pretty kick arse imo [23:17] oi, i'm just being reasonable. should i remind you that kopete got broken in 3.5.8? === mannuel is now known as terrestre [23:17] some people like the bleeding edge. And its when those same people complain about bugs that kinda irks me.. [23:17] :P [23:18] I'm upgrading to gutsy right now using adept. Hope it goes well. downloading at over 600 kB/s :) [23:18] No kopete got not broken in 7.04 when upgrading to 3.58 [23:18] sub[t]rnl: i agree ... if they want to run kde4 and have nothing work ... have fun ;) === mina__ is now known as mina [23:18] wesley, try logging in to MSN messenger [23:18] what's the easiest way to copy a camcorder dvd to an avi?

[23:20] vlt: why ubuntu, why arent your doing this from the kubuntu website [23:20] tekstacy: k9copy, or k3b rip it, then use ffmpeg to convert it [23:20] or tovid [23:20] sub[t]rnl, thanks [23:21] oritemis: servers are hammered [23:21] i hope 8.04 will be better and with kde4 or at least let the user choose [23:21] Yup [23:21] Servers are hammered [23:21] the drunks! [23:21] I think the reason my adept won't do a dist-upgrade is because I don't have the necessary repos [23:21] hll [23:21] wesley: it's true that with so many new things planned for kde4 it might take a while to stabilise. and 8.04 is a LTS release for ubuntu [23:21] thats why im not using the main repos [23:21] Can anyone give me the "name" for "Recommended updates" and "Pre release updates" [23:21] im using an alternate mirror [23:22] much faster [23:22] weedar: just add them through adept [23:22] I used alternate mirrors too [23:22] whats the command to check for direct rendering] [23:22] weedar: feisty-updates and feisty-proposed === ForeverZero is now known as sea4ever [23:22] nmjohnso: glxinfo | grep direct ? [23:23] sub[t]rnl: there isn't a retry button or something like that. What can I do? [23:23] Yes frank_ but i think kde4 will be stable in the time 8.04 release i mean we got 7.10 the big different is the art wich you can download for 7.04 [23:23] oritemis: wait :/ [23:24] oritemis: retry button [23:24] ? [23:24] hi, I am installing kubuntu and I am stacked into 82% "reading the mirror", [23:24] someone knows what to do? [23:24] wesley: let's just say that the kde people are pretty abitious for kde4 [23:25] Hi there, I just installed kubuntu 7.10 and Im having 2 problems.. 1) I want to install the restricted driver for my wifi, a 43xx driver, but when I do this in the restricted manager, a new window opens saying "specify firmware location" but that window is like frozen, I cant select anything, I can not even close that window.. When I press "Cancel" in the restricted drivers screen, I get a crash.. How can I install this restricted driver? [23:25] How do I fix grub Error 15? [23:25] sub[t]rnl: Or even more, what should I do, if the setup routine don't find the mirror? [23:26] oritemis: there are other options for upgrading. You can backup your files and install from the liveCD .iso, or use an alternate cd to upgrade [23:26] does it take a long time to boot 7.10_amd64? [23:27] any one using 7.1? ctrl+alt+F1 didn't work for me [23:27] terrestre: black screen? [23:27] works here. [23:27] yes i know it looks already nice kde4 but i dont wanna run it along side kde3 [23:27] sub[t]rnl: I am doing a installation from strach with live cd. [23:27] thanks frank [23:27] terrestre: theres an issue with passing vga= in grubs menu.1st with the current gutsy kernel [23:28] if its in there, take it out till the kernel team gets a fix [23:28] wesley: even i wouldnt trust kde4 until its stable released [23:28] oooh thanks sub[t]rnl [23:29] wesley: i tend not to trust core linux related betas such as distro betas or DE betas [23:29] wesley: too much room for problems [23:29] Im using a Dell Latitude D620 laptop with a broadcom BCM94311MCG internal wifi network card.. kubuntu gives me the restricted driver 43xx for this card but I cant install it becausre the install window hangs.. How can I fix this?? [23:29] the beta from kubuntu was better then the stable release [23:30] i have a problem, i removed the user i created when i installed kubuntu, and added a new user, but nother is working on it, i mean , Adept , apt, things like that. any help? [23:30] sven_: its pulling the driver from servers that are really bogged down [23:31] sven_: find an alternate site with the driver, or compile it from source [23:31] Does anybody now how to run Compiz Fusion on Kubuntu GG? [23:31] sven_: everyone is upgrading to gutsy, so the repos are a little overloaded from everyon using them right now [23:31] fairman: sudo apt-get install compiz-kde compizconfig-settings-manager [23:31] i know how to install but running it does not just did restart at me [23:32] Angelus: sudo apt* [23:32] sub[t]rnl: fairman when I tried compiz in kubuntu I had a problem with the window decorator crashing often [23:32] but i realy dont think gutsy makes that much a change [23:32] sub[t]rnl: ? [23:32] If I installed ubuntu, then aptituded kubuntu-desktop and run on KDE is it, in fact, kubuntu? [23:32] sudo apt-get install blablabla does nothing, it just starts a new line [23:32] frank_: I've had it flake out too [23:33] DerDritte: yes [23:33] sub[t]rnl: yes, i have it, but when i want run (compiz --replace) it does not start - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41233/ this output [23:33] frank_: but doing a killall compiz.real and alt +f2 compiz gets it back up [23:33] DerDritte: Its with both lots of packages installed though [23:33] does kubuntu-desktop install kubuntu-default-settings [23:33] ? [23:33] fairman: try running compiz [23:33] i would expect so [23:33] h3sp4wn: that's okay, enough space... [23:33] sub[t]rnl: hope it gets better eventually [23:33] xevious: hrm, if your --purge it will remove config files for defaults [23:33] xevious: if thats what your after [23:33] DerDritte: apt-get --purge remove libgnome32 libgnome2-common (and then move the rest from section gnome with aptitude [23:34] sub[t]rnl: i was just checking on DerDritte's behalf [23:34] ahh [23:34] i have a problem, i removed the user i created when i installed kubuntu, and added a new user, but nother is working on it, i mean , Adept , apt, things like that. any help? [23:34] sub[t]rnl: because i'd assume that kubuntu-default-settings would also be necessary to turn ubuntu into kubuntu === flake is now known as the [23:34] Angelus: use "sudo" before the commands [23:34] DerDritte: xevious, kubuntu-desktop doesn't install all the applications that come with a kubuntu install AFAIK [23:34] sub[t]rnl: read my problem [23:34] sub[t]rnl: the same output with "compiz" instead of "compiz --replace" [23:34] xevious: youre not turning anything into anything, youre just adding kde [23:34] nothing works, even sudo [23:34] frank_: That's not what I really need... [23:35] coreymon77: refer to DerDritte's post up above. i'm aware of that [23:35] is kubuntu 7.10 available yet? [23:35] fiarman: ok sec, let me check your paste [23:35] h3sp4wn: what for? [23:35] Solifugus: yes, it was yesterday [23:35] Solifugus: yeah [23:35] DerDritte: [23:35] salve [23:35] i'm out. [23:35] later folks [23:35] i have no symlink in .kde/Autostart, why does compiz start automatically? :D [23:35] DerDritte: is all you want to do is add kde? [23:35] DerDritte: If you wish to remove the gnome stuff if you don't want it - not 100% sure what handles certain things if there is a crossover [23:36] DerDritte: and keep gnome [23:36] fairman: what video card you using bro? [23:36] h3sp4wn: kk [23:36] I'm guessing its blacklisted [23:36] theres a way around it though.. sec [23:36] coreymon77: Think is: I wanted to test KDE. [23:36] Anyone know anything about a fix for volume keys on laptops.. going from 0% to 11%? [23:36] fairman: what card you using? [23:36] wastedfluid: that's a bug ... and iirc didn't you ask about that yesterday? [23:36] coreymon77: When I already had installed and configed ubuntu (gnome). [23:36] DerDritte: if you want to keep both kde and gnome on your computer, just add kubuntu-desktop [23:36] echo SKIP_CHECKS=yes >> [23:37] coreymon77: I did that... [23:37] DerDritte: that will do it [23:37] lontra: yeah, I did, but I want a link to something I can possibly watch (like a bug track # or something) to look fora fix. [23:37] DerDritte: then you are fine [23:37] DerDritte: you have kubuntu [23:37] wastedfluid: it's upstream as it affects my laptop in debian ... so search kde bug reports [23:37] DerDritte: and ubuntu [23:37] coreymon77: Now it seems as the adept is confused about being 7.04 or 7.10 [23:37] i have no symlink in .kde/Autostart, why does compiz start automatically? :D [23:37] Okay. === the is now known as flake [23:37] sub[t]rnl: hmm, how can i exactly find out? I have some intel card integrated on motherboard [23:37] DerDritte: is ubuntu 7.10 yet? [23:37] coreymon77: jepp. [23:37] huXfluX: start-system-advanced-sessions, kde might be restoring your previous session [23:37] DerDritte: did you upgrade ubuntu yet/ [23:38] ? [23:38] coreymon77: I'm afraid so :P [23:38] so what's on the "alternate" cd image? [23:38] fairman: lspci [23:38] fairman: look at the top [23:38] DerDritte: no problem [23:38] DerDritte: that should be good [23:38] where?:D [23:38] DerDritte: i would expect that kubuntu-desktop now would be 7.10 [23:38] coreymon77: where can I check? [23:38] huXfluX: I'm not sure where that setting stays but you can run kwin --replace to get as before [23:39] coreymon77: clicked around a bit but didn't show anywhere... [23:39] coreymon77, sub[t]rnl , so thats why the "specify firmware location" is hanging? because, I have not even specified the location (on disk or remote server) or the "Ok" button yet.. [23:39] sub[t]rnl: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) [23:39] blacklisted fairman [23:40] fairman: do this [23:40] coreymon77: aptitude says it's Version 1.59, that can't be it... :| [23:40] The Distribution upgrade has (I'm very certain) hung [23:40] fairman: echo SKIP_CHECKS=yes >> ~/.config/compiz/compiz-manager [23:40] it's on the installing upgrades step. [23:40] and try it [23:40] how long is 7.04 supported? [23:41] trouble is, it's been "configuring smbfs" for about 10 minutes now. I'm gessing it should be expecting for my input, but the terminal area is just a gray square, no text element. [23:41] apt-fix [23:41] Any tips? [23:41] apt-fix [23:41] !apt-fix [23:41] Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-fix - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [23:41] my_: next time point the vector, but thanks a lot.

There is a configuracion for that in ccms, in the general area, I checked it, but like 2 seconds later it automatically gets unchecked! Thats like microsoft windows behaviour! :) how can I check that thing and have windows raise properly?? [23:42] thanx [23:42] thanks sub[t]rnl [23:43] but you can still install programs after those 1.5 years? [23:43] xevious: hey didn't you have sven_'s problem [23:43] What's the next phases? cleaning up? an "apt-get clean" ? [23:43] Any got the link to a how-to: compiz on kubuntu? [23:43] sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop doesn't give me gnome stuff? [23:43] !compiz-fusion [23:43] 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 [23:44] sub[t]rnl: wau, it works :) [23:44] hi [23:44] fairman: :) [23:44] sub[t]rnl, any idea what his fix was for this? [23:44] its... anoying.. [23:45] i just upgraded to gutsy and all my msttcorefonts stoped working [23:45] sven_: yeah, i know it was something simple [23:45] sub[t]rnl, it usually is... [23:45] hehe [23:45] once you know it.. :) [23:45] your just wanting it to keep click on focus right? [23:46] the updater said something about installing x-ttcidfont-conf, which is installed, but makes no difference [23:46] After I upgraded to gutsy KDE has been running horrible. it's really really slow, and my dual-screen setup doesn't work as nice as it did before. "nvidia-settings" claims that the drivers isn't being used, but the restricted-manager says they are, and compiz runs really nice in gnome [23:46] do -all- the plugins in compiz revert back if you check them in ccsm? [23:46] sub[t]rnl, raise window on click actually [23:46] Can someone help me get my system running again :) [23:46] it's compiz working on 7,1? [23:46] sub[t]rnl: it is not perfect, but it seems good, thanks very much [23:46] bottiger: modprobe nvidia [23:46] sub[t]rnl: thx. Tried compiz.real first, didn't work out :P [23:46] fairman: no problem [23:47] bbiab guys [23:48] ah, yes, and kdesu fails with command not found, regardless what i call [23:48] compiz went nuts. [23:48] but works if called from shell [23:50] xevious, Did you have a problem with compiz that windows did not raise correctly? if so, how'd you fixit? [23:50] using kubuntu 710 with compiz, how can I again get the ctrl-alt-esc to work as "Kill application" ? [23:52] /j #ubuntu-cs [23:52] Are the 7.04 compiz instructions ubotu gave applicable to 7.10 too? [23:53] sven_, you have to do 2 things.. enable the 'flatfile' settings in the compiz settings tool. then you can check/change the focus/autoraise settings in the general tab [23:54] sven_, "ccsm -> perferances -> backend -> flatfile" then General Tab -> focus and raise Behaivor. [23:54] I've got 2 instances of dist-upgrade.py each using 30% of my 1GB of RAM. I hope it will be ok [23:55] hey, my apach2 stoped working after upgrading to 7.10 [23:55] stoped working means it does not start at all but without a single error [23:55] Dr_willis, hurray! that did it! [23:55] thanks lots!@ [23:56] sven_, thats going to be a FAQ.. :) i just know it,. [23:56] was my directions clear? going to make a factoid for it :) [23:57] how do i install the restricted drivers from a term [23:57] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras kubuntu-restricted-extras xubuntu-restricted-extras [23:57] Pick what one you want. :) [23:57] Dr_willis, it was very clear [23:57] Fade2Blac: Which restricted driver exactly [23:57] Dr_willis, but.. isnt this somehting that should be fixed? [23:57] the boradcom wireless card [23:57] sven_, well technicially comiz is NOT supported under kubuntu. thats why its not included by default. [23:58] :) [23:58] bcm43xx [23:58] I just lost the upgrader. there is a lock file still in place. what do i do to continue the upgrade? [23:58] and i think the issue is how kde and the compiz settings are gettingsaved/set - thats what the flatfile thing fixed. [23:58] Dr_willis, I mean, it may not be a bug directly but... if you dont have specific knowledge about this, forget about ever finding it.. you wont find it in a faq either because you would not think of looking this up in a faq... at least, that would go for me.. [23:58] Fade2Blac: I doubt that can use the restricted manager as the firmware is taken from the wl.o blob for wireless routers [23:58] systemsettings crashes in kubuntu 7.10 i got upgraded to kde 3.5.8 [23:58] Fade2Blac: And completely illegal to distribute [23:58] Fade2Blac: use fwcutter [23:58] sven_, compiz has a lot of 'layers of issues' that all need to get worked out.
