[00:00] Dr_willis: I thought you hated compiz ? [00:01] h3sp4wn, theres so far 2 features of it i like. the rest is just fluff :) [00:01] and it still needs a lot of work. [00:01] so... where can i find help with fonts? [00:01] dvayanu, depends on the problem :) [00:01] who knows the name of the compiz effect where clikcing on a window that is half below another window will cause both windows to move away from eachother and then back on top of eachother with the clicked window on top/?? [00:01] how would i disable the card so i can start kubuntu\ [00:01] Riddell, fix the snapshot number six!! --> http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/ [00:01] Riddell, fix the snapshot number six!! --> http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/ [00:01] dr_willis: the fonts just do look bad :-) [00:01] i had mscorefonts package installed [00:01] sven_, thats the 'dodge' effect under focus i think. [00:01] dvayanu: sgi released some nice ones but they are not utf8 unfortunately [00:02] but it seems it doesn't work anymore [00:02] what's wrong with kotelo? [00:02] Dr_willis, looking it up.. thanks [00:02] dvayanu, this is under a upgrade to gutsy? [00:02] Lars_G, ;D [00:02] dr_willis yeah [00:02] why when i type cat /etc/issue in the terminal it says that i have 7.10, but adept told me that i can update to 7.10 and when i do so, it keeps giving error [00:02] just upgraded [00:02] 'lo. [00:03] help! why when i type cat /etc/issue in the terminal it says that i have 7.10, but adept told me that i can update to 7.10 and when i do so, it keeps giving error [00:03] the updater said something about installing x-ttcidfont-conf [00:03] dvayanu, ive sen several people ask about font issues in #ubuntu today. i would say check the forums - there may be some thread on it by now - given how many people ive seen with issues. [00:03] I always do a clean install.. :) [00:03] cant afford that ... [00:03] and i think i will CONTINUE to always do a clean install. [00:03] dvayanu: are you using kde or gnome ? [00:03] does anyone know [00:03] hs3sp4wn: kde [00:04] otherwise i would be on ubuntu wouldnt i? :-) [00:04] how to disable something so it does load on start up, the wireless card will not let me boot kubuntu [00:04] without getting an error [00:04] dvayanu: I wouldn't too busy [00:04] ok I have to continue the upgrade. is sudo apt-get dist-upgrade gonna work? does the dist-upgrader do something else? [00:04] Fade2Blac, an error that wont let it continue booting? [00:04] my brother has same issue with gnome [00:04] dvayanu: There is something related to gtk that they have fixed it so it doesn't hardcode 96dpi anymore [00:05] ah [00:05] but if its pure kde that shouldn't be effected [00:05] i'vve seen an option [00:05] yes this error [00:06] bcm43xx: error : microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed [00:06] hmm... [00:06] Fade2Blac: get it from wl.o [00:06] force fonts dpi to 120 makes it a bit better [00:06] do u have a url [00:06] or lets say more readable [00:06] dvayanu: Aren't monitors general 72dpi anyhow? [00:07] Fade2Blac, that shouldent stop the system from booting.. [00:07] Fade2Blac, install the fwcutter package. it 'should' auto-dwnload those files [00:07] lars_g: i'm just tryint to get readable konsole font [00:07] !find fwcutter [00:07] Found: bcm43xx-fwcutter [00:07] I'm pretty disappointed with the upgrader for kubuntu. I would be pretty screwed if I didn't know what I was doing... [00:07] or at least it did for me. [00:07] Fade2Blac: http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0.tar.bz2. [00:07] frank_: I've had 50% luck so far [00:07] Lars_G: No [00:08] so the command to install fwcutter would be [00:08] hai guise, is wine broken for you in gutsy? [00:08] Lars_G: Its entirely dependant on size (especially with lcd panels) [00:08] it stopped working after the upgrade [00:08] and I need it :-( [00:08] Lars_G: its dots per inch [00:08] Lars_G: i'm just continuing the upgrade in the terminal. I hope it works [00:08] systemsettings crashed at startup anyone does have this problem? [00:08] How do I real install grub? [00:08] h3sp4wn: dpi is dependant on density. [00:08] *reinstall? [00:08] gutsy has been the buggiest release I've seen in the ubuntu history [00:09] frank_: me too [00:09] dpi proportional to resolution, inversely proportional to display dimensions [00:10] Rudd-O: Yep [00:10] hey dr. what would that command be [00:10] so any ideas about wine? [00:10] Lars_G: things like this make me feel the kubuntu side of ubuntu is neglected. [00:10] how can I downgrade to a previous version? [00:11] frank_: It always has been [00:11] Mandriva is the best if it comes to config [00:12] h3sp4wn: is there anyone else other than ridell working on kubuntu specifically? [00:12] mandriva [00:12] !search fwcutter [00:12] Found: [00:12] Yes mandriva linux 2008 [00:12] frank_: Not who gets paid to afaik [00:12] "Could not verify the integrity of the upgrader application. This program will now exit" Do someone know why I'm getting this error in the Upgrade Wizard? [00:12] Last time I used mandrake, I couldn't find any help, or documentation, or install anything, or... [00:13] Fade2Blac: sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter [00:13] ndrea: I got that too. but the second time i tried it worked [00:13] ok [00:13] thx :) so that should fix it [00:13] i try [00:13] its better then kubuntu 7.10 i think Mandriva did a good job i think [00:13] Greets, everyone... [00:13] purpleposeidon, thats amazing.. giving the HUGE volumes of info on the internet about every disrto out. :) [00:13] Fade2Blac: no idea but that's how you get fwcutter [00:13] thank you [00:13] ndrea: the upgrader application crashed mid-upgrade for me though. I can't really recommend it unless you really know what you're doing [00:14] Dr_willis: when I left mandrake pre-mandriva their page organization was..... difficutl [00:14] With linux it pays to learn the Fundamentals.. then the rest is just iceing. :) [00:14] frank_: hm, what should I do then? [00:14] Dr_willis: It seemd to me that every site I looked at was under construction, or something [00:15] It's so sad flash is closed source [00:15] ndrea: I'm really not sure... [00:15] I wish some madman had done an aalib based flash player so I could play orisinal games on elinks while I wait for the install to finish [00:15] just reported the wine bug [00:15] trying to compile a qt3 program I get "vk_file_utils.cpp:49:27: error: qplatformdefs.h: No such file or directory".. qplatformdefs.h exists in usr/share/qt3/mkspecs/*/..

I'll just make a try or two :) [00:16] guys, how can I downgrade a package to an older version? [00:16] using adept of course? [00:16] ndrea: well i got to warn you if the upgrader crashes you might be left with an unbootable system [00:16] could it be because there are many people downloading from that server? [00:16] Sigh all I have left is to look at ascii porn in links [00:16] och, really? [00:17] ndrea: Do it from the cli (stop kdm) and using aptitude [00:17] better uninstall and install again? [00:17] aptitude is gold [00:17] ndrea: well that's one to do it [00:18] ndrea: well that's one way to do it [00:18] guys, how can I downgrade to a previous versino of a package using adept?

[00:25] hey all... so it looks like on GG ubuntu that there is a simple preference for switching to compiz-fusion [00:25] is there anything similar for kubuntu? [00:25] or am I just high on the "dope" all around? [00:25] Is there anybody else who is having problems with the restricted driver manager? It was commented to me that this was due to the huge load the servers were getting but what I see is just a window hanging before I even press "Ok" or anything.. The url specified in that window can be downloaded without problem using wget anyway.. its a .o file, can I install that file somewhere manually so that I can get my wireless to work? please? [00:26] ndrea: just try inside X with aptitude then [00:26] jereme_, AFAIK, compiz is not yet officially supported under KDE and so they don't have a simple tool for it yet [00:26] sven_ , I was having trouble yesterday during light hours, so I waited until after dark. Worked fine then. [00:26] jereme_, but I have been told that kdm also has its own composite manager [00:26] sven_: gotcha... [00:26] hrm [00:26] I'll sniff around [00:27] ndrea: sudo perl -pi.bak -e 's/feisty/gutsy/i' /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade [00:27] ndrea: use the pastebin if there is any issues [00:27] ubuntu, but.. I just say "Enable driver" and then I get a window that hangs.. that really is normal? [00:27] ubuntu, in any case, I already got the file here.. all I need now is to know how to install it [00:28] sven_, It did the same thing for me. Reboot and see if it works in a bit [00:28] so....dude....what's up with kopete?

[00:47] could be simple thing like the .bahrc or .bash_profile not getting read from the terminal [00:47] Dr_willis: oh, sorry, forget that, my fault... stupid me had not set the prompt color in .bashrc, but in /etc/bash_bashrc or so, which of course was not taken over [00:48] is there a good way to get a really old java version (1.1 or 1.2) on this machine? preferrable via apt?

[00:53] er, uninstall kmix, and install an version === _eh-ef-kay is now known as eh-ef-kay [00:53] sven_: hm, usually anything should... though, wait, it's *not* cisco and it's even more not pptp :-) [00:53] at least after the experience i have [00:54] maybe some simple openvpn stuff or so?

[01:10] kotelo look for compiz in adept manager/package manager of ur choice [01:10] how i can install compiz fusion or beryl in kubuntu gutsy?

[01:11] what are the package names to get flash working with firefox ? [01:11] kotelo: i think it will install compiz, from what i know compiz fusion is just some plugins (that were and were not beryl) u use with compiz [01:11] using apt-get [01:12] flashnonfreee i think or something like that [01:12] compiz-fusion is the merger of compiz and beryl [01:12] beryl was a fork off of the original compiz project [01:12] davix: i suppose the reason is that you don't want to lose your homedir? [01:12] eventually they decided to rejoin forces [01:12] yeah [01:12] so compiz-fusion != compiz per say [01:12] yea but i think most of the beryl stuff was converted to compiz plugins [01:12] g-hennux since when does a distro forces a format? (ahem) [01:13] still compiz-fusion and compiz are not exactly equal, and packages are named appropriately [01:13] davix: hm, don't know, i'd like to do a format to have a clean install anyway [01:14] oh lord, nevermind eyecandy now [01:14] g-hennux many would, yet some undeniable portion wouldn't === ]Relic[ is now known as [Relic] [01:14] what was the url for the updated kopete/kdelibs deb again?

[01:25] hey, i installed a custum version of fglrx via .deb's but i'd like to go back to the stock ones and i'm not sure how [01:26] Angelus: yes I have the 8800 and I found it hard enough to get the CD to begin the install, i found it just hates the splash screen, even in feisty [01:26] i blacklisted fglrx but it wasn't in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist [01:26] <[Relic]> Jucato: thanks :) [01:26] it was somewhere else with a blacklist variable like "BLACKLIST="fglrx"" [01:27] ok... well this is helpful [01:27] Toma-: it's like this, everytime something uses APT or dpkg, the APT database is locked so that nothing else could use it. When something abruptly stops it, it also locks the database in order not to leave the system in an inconsistent state (it also doesn't continue the installation of the package that was abruptly interrupted). [01:27] NickPresta: I always found the nvidia-settings annoying as hell. Just out of curiosity, did you ever get a rendering issue with twinview where one monitor would render slower than the other? like u could see videos rendering? [01:27] pm me if you can help me connect to wireless with security [01:27] adz21c, no, the setup worked quite flawlessly, which is why I'm so disappointed that it isn't working now :) [01:28] Jucato➔ yes i know all that, but whats triggering adept to crash? i got that error and i think think adept even crashed [01:28] ah well that's another matter :) [01:28] :D [01:28] NickPresta: ok, cos I did, was annoying, I ended up falling back to Xinerama (which supposively is slower but seems smoother to me) but, no compiz now :( [01:29] After upgrading from Feisty, I do not know where my old Kubuntu files are. What is the command that shows all the partitions? [01:30] hello is there anybody for a good conversation [01:30] !offtopic | lido76-06 [01:30] lido76-06: #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! [01:30] donsdw: which kubuntu files are you looking for exactly? [01:31] and what happens next? [01:31] Jucato: all of them. Right now all the directories are empty. [01:31] fglrx wont detect my card [01:31] it says its using mesa [01:31] donsdw: all? but you were able to boot into Kubuntu? [01:31] can you move the navigation bar into the toolbar in dolphin? [01:31] I may have lost them, but I don't think so. [01:31] Toma-: which navigation bar? [01:32] Jucato➔ the one that has "/home/toma" and such in it [01:32] in what app I mean? [01:32] dolphin [01:32] (file manager) [01:32] Yes I can boot. I just do not have anything in my home directory except Desktop, which is empty. [01:33] donsdw: you just upgraded from feisty or is a fresh install? and do you have your /home on another partition? [01:33] I misspoke when I said *all* directories. [01:33] For some reason, my "windows" key has been unmapped. It does nothing. Any idea how to fix that? [01:33] anyone know where ktorrent stores the torrent files? [01:33] I meant all my old files. [01:33] Upgraded. [01:33] NickPresta: with xev right ? [01:34] Toma-: Ctrl+L switches from the breadcrumb toolbar to the editable location bar [01:34] how do you force apt to install somthing thats already there [01:34] i want to force it to reinstall xorg-driver-fglrx [01:34] donsdw: hm.. that would be weird... [01:34] I think (hope) my old /home is in a partition which I cannot see. [01:35] Oh no. I hoped that was normal. [01:35] mike-kubunt1: apt-get install --reinstall xorg-driver-fglrx [01:35] donsdw: so /home is on a different partition? [01:35] I hope so, Jucato. [01:35] wowsers - plugged in a new printer.. and a dialog poped up and installed it. :) kooka also saw my scannre right off.. [01:35] sorry, h3sp4wn, X decides to crash at random intervals since the upgrade =( [01:35] Its getting where linxu works better then windows. :) [01:35] donsdw: perhaps it's not mounted anymore. you can check with "mount" command to see if it's mounted. [01:36] But I think I have to mount the correct one, but my linux is very limited. [01:36] donsdw: you hope so?err... you should know of /home is on another partition since you're the one who set it up when you first installed... [01:36] adz21c: it says it is not possible since it cannot be downloaded [01:36] NickPresta: was you using xev to see if its detected >? [01:36] "Your Linux-Fu is Weak Grasshopper..." :) [01:36] mike-kubunt1: you may need to enable the appropriate repo [01:37] I tried mount. I will take a look. Thanks, Jucato. [01:37] Helllooooooo [01:37] hi, little girl [01:38] Jucato, when I set up /home, I did under Feisty. Now with the new one, /home is empty. [01:38] I was so impressed with beryl before and I upgraded to Kubuntu and now I can't get the desktop cube to wrk at ll [01:38] donsdw: when you set it up in feisty, was it on another partition?

[01:39] * Dr_willis_ really dosent see the point of the cube. :) [01:39] seriekrock, the whole system is faster. :) [01:39] donsdw: because simply upgrading to gutsy will not modify that. unless you re-installed [01:39] Will the mount command show unmounted partitions? If not, what is the command that does? [01:39] seriekrock: becuase you are subconciously eager to find ways that linux is better than windows? [01:39] donsdw: nope it doesn't show those [01:39] Dr_willis_: yeah :) [01:40] dystopianray: lol [01:40] Thanks for your feedback, Jucato.

[01:43] Short question, what's the kernel side package equivalent to the nvidia-glx-new xorg side package? [01:44] That is, which deb has the restricted module for the 100 glx driver [01:44] linux-restricted-modules- [01:45] Jucato: that has a version it seems compatible with nvidia-glx not nvidia-glx-new [01:45] Lars_G: you can install linux-restricted-modules-generic so that you'll always have the one for your kernel, even when the kernel updates [01:45] it's for all [01:45] (it should be) [01:45] Hmmm ok I'll try reinstalling those [01:46] does anyone know why kubuntu gutsy is asking me if i want to upgrade to gutsy? [01:46] kcheckgmail is meant to habe an icon in the systray right? [01:46] secleinteer: yeah. kinda funny, but harmless [01:46] Jucato: will it go away if i let it 'upgrade'? [01:46] it won't do anything [01:46] alright [01:47] secleinteer: why shouldnt you upgrade? [01:47] hi .. how do I install X-chat ? [01:47] ok... just installed 7.10. wireless is slow as crap [01:47] dystopianray: Yes! and cat /proc/partitions. Thanks! [01:47] seriekrock: read what i said again - already have gutsy, but it's asking me to upgrade to gutsy [01:47] any wireless utils on kubuntu? [01:47] secleinteer: lol ok [01:48] hi .. how do I install X-chat ? [01:48] Mexflubber: sudo apt-get install xchat [01:48] or search for it in adept [01:48] Mexflubber: in Add/Remove Programs, look for it [01:48] xchat or x-chat [01:49] whats the secret to getting compiz going in kubuntu gutsy please?

[02:15] mcrandello: I did that. I'll have to tripple check. Thanks! [02:15] adz21c: there is no 'wmv9' you're likely thinking of wmv3 and yes it does support that [02:15] adz21c: it also supports vc-1 which is the wmv3 superset used in HD-DVD and blu-ray [02:15] the 'rip video dvd' option doesn't work for me in k3b, it just opens the video_ts directroy. Is this normal behaviour in kubuntu ? i'm pretty sure i installed all the needed packages [02:16] Btw I had to finish the upgrade by hand [02:16] RipRapRob, if you've gone over the entries and made sure it's all correct then instead of logging out try using to kill the xserver. That will force kdm to reload its settings [02:16] NickPresta kernel version/module mismatch ? [02:16] dystopianray: fair enough [02:16] i think they should just remove that option from k3b, i played around with it a few weeks ago , compiling from source, and it didn't give the proper commands to transcode anyway [02:16] and I notice my KDE theme has some icons or graphics missing [02:16] like for example during startup the spinner will show some icons, and others will show as a generic "page" [02:16] intelikey, I don't think so. I've reinstalled the driver three times. Twice, I used the restricted-manager and once I did a manual install. No dice either way [02:17] NickPresta hmmm. is the /etc/X11/xorg.conf being changed on ya / [02:17] mcrandello: Everything looks OK. I've even tried restarting. I'll try the CTRL ALT BACKSPACE. Thanks again for your patience! [02:17] there's mencoder, ffmeg, dvd95 , k9copy [02:17] looking for ppl who have google earth running on Gutsy 64 using ATI [02:17] intelikey, nope. "nvidia" is still listed... [02:18] Any tips for that please? [02:18] BluesKaj: do ATI finally provide 64bit linux drivers? [02:18] NickPresta one more "stab in the dark" here. don't have a oops copy of xorg.conf in your /root/ do you ? [02:18] Lars_G: they have for awhile now [02:18] takes forever to refreh network settings for wireless... and wireless is slow [02:18] intelikey, nope. /root/ is empty [02:19] NightBird: cool. I had stopped tracking ati [02:19] NightBird: And now, I have troubles with my beloved nvidia :P [02:19] well that pretty much spent my 'least possable info' trubble shooting. check the logs. [02:20] hi [02:20] how do i un-ignore a repo? cant seem to find it in a man page. [02:20] Ign http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security/restricted Translation-en_US [02:21] scrottles remove the comment char (#) from before it. [02:21] oh [02:21] intelikey, dmesg and syslog don't show anything related to nvidia or X in general... [02:22] NickPresta: those are in /var/log/Xorg.x.log [02:22] x is a number [02:22] do a ls -l and the log with today's date is the right one [02:23] oh in /etc/apt/sources.list [02:23] thanx pal [02:23] scrottles: after you uncomment it, remember to do an sudo apt-get update [02:23] right [02:24] who here has finished there upgrade to gusty , i need to know if there old personal files from 7.o4 was broth over to 7.10 or did they lose them? [02:24] !nvidia [02:24] To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [02:24] rickey, is your /home on it's own partition? === rob_ is now known as RipRapRob [02:25] no i dont think so [02:25] Lars_G, thanks. I checked the log and everything seems to have worked. Twinview was enabled, the metamodes were set properly, etc... [02:26] rickey, if you do an an upgrade through apt it shouldn't touch them. If you decide to reinstall from CD I would back up everything first. [02:26] rickey, but then I would back up everything anyway, because I'm paranoid ;^) [02:26] NickPresta: What's your problem? [02:26] Lars_G, whenever I start the computer/login, my nvidia driver is disabled despite it being installed and in my xorg.conf. I run nvidia-settings and it tells me that I'm not using the nvidia driver. [02:26] i do have sommetime to put somestuff on a cd ,before the full upgrade takes place [02:27] ok i did go though apt [02:27] NickPresta: I think it's not disabled. you're using nvidia-glx-new right? [02:28] thanks [02:28] Lars_G, yep, for my 7900 GS [02:28] NickPresta: I get the same with nvidia-settings and my nvidia is working well except for one error I'm having. From what I saw from aptitude when installing it seems the nvidia-settings up there works with nvidia-glx but not nvidia-glx-new [02:29] Can't get KDE4 to show up in logon. Have followed http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta3.php (and check 3 times). But still, KDE4 does not show up as an option. [02:29] NickPresta: so it's nvidia-settings failing to recognize the driver. if you open a shell and run glxinfo it should show direct rendering on. [02:29] how do you obtain a mac address in linux [02:29] NickPresta: I will try in a while, after I fix my nvidia error, to download only the lattest nvidia-settings from the nvidia page and test that [02:29] zolar1, ifconfig [02:29] zolar1: ifconfig shows it === lee_ is now known as lee986321 [02:30] thanks [02:30] zolar1 it's called the HWaddr though [02:30] at least that's what ifconfig calls it :) [02:30] NightBird: oh... odd I just rand glxinfo and I get direct rendering no... but it also shows the nvidia glx lines... this is odd. [02:30] ok ya I hae my either net up and running [02:30] sorry Lars_G. X crashed... Anyways, doing a `glxinfo | grep direct` shows direct rending NO [02:31] its a bit unorthodox though [02:31] Lars_G: can't help with nvidia difilties [02:31] or with spelling either apparently [02:31] lol [02:32] now I ama problby the worst typest of all there lol [02:32] ok well now to setting up those drivers [02:32] lee986321 well actually.... [02:32] sigh. Is there a recommended way to downgrade? :P [02:32] NightBird: sorry wrong autocompletion [02:32] NickPresta: oh... odd I just rand glxinfo and I get direct rendering no... but it also shows the nvidia glx lines... this is odd. [02:33] gna i just finished the upgrade f->g but the nvidia module is gone.. where is it?! === nuu is now known as nu === nu is now known as nuu [02:33] NickPresta: And. I still see GLX loading correctly in Xorg.log O.o something is very very odd here [02:33] seems there is a chain of events here... [02:33] eh I lost my monitirs manual adjust mensts this stinks [02:34] NickPresta: I might even try to remove ubuntu's nvidia module (rm by hand) and glx (dpkg -r) and use nvidia's installer. to see what happens. [02:34] bbl [02:34] ok setting up a paste bin [02:34] how do i best install compiz fusion in 7.10 [02:34] !pastebin [02:34] pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [02:34] ok go that running [02:35] hm lsets see updates ah that its [02:35] * lee986321 is talking to himself dont pay it any mnd [02:36] i edited /etc/apt/sources.list and i still get lines beginning with Ign upon apt-get update [02:36] !compiz | wesley [02:36] wesley: 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 [02:36] all that is commented is documentation and cdrom [02:38] scrottles: what is it ignoring? [02:39] ok [02:39] lee986321: no..its not. [02:39] ;) [02:39] * lee986321 Belches [02:39] i thought gutsy had compiz fusion installed as standard? [02:40] your right that is better ahh ty [02:40] seriekrock: not kubuntu [02:40] =D [02:40] Can't get KDE4 to show up in logon. Have followed http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta3.php (and checked 3 times). But still, KDE4 does not show up as an option. Any suggestions? [02:40] scrottles yeah i tried to correct that post eariler. it's not your sources.list per'se it's a network issue. either the destination or the address is kicking back a "not applicable" and apt is thus ignoring that line. i.e. could be a server down. and could be a bad address in the apt line the security sight is ttp://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ [02:40] http://rafb.net/p/ObHZpU74.html [02:40] ok any who I am getting down to some seriouse business now..who wants to help me withthe ati codion to make sure all goes well [02:40] any takers?

[02:41] i was just looking for libdvdcss and w32codecs but i suppose they're googleable [02:41] is there a difference between libdvdcss and libdvdcss2 ? [02:41] yes [02:41] which is prefered ? [02:41] seriekrock: yeah.. you can install it from adept, get: compiz-kde emerald and compiz-plugins-extra [02:41] 2 [02:41] i suppose 2 [02:41] I think [02:41] updated [02:43] !libdvdcss2 [02:43] 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 [02:44] intelikey: !! upgraded to gutsy yet? [02:44] nosrednaekim i don't expect i'll ever see gutsy [02:44] intelikey: you a LTS guy? [02:44] google takes me to sites to upgrade the apt.sources file for Edgy, and Dapper, im running fiesty. [02:44] never saw edgy or fiesty [02:44] er [02:44] scrottles: just DL the deb [02:44] nosrednaekim yep [02:45] eh ok I need the url adress for [02:45] the kdelibs4-dev is reported broken in adept. i have installed the kdelibs4 update that is fixes the kopete msn crash. [02:45] what should i do? [02:45] <----64bit gutsy restricted ATI driver enabled , wonder if google earth will run ...got fgl_glxgears working [02:46] scrottles the differance in the sources.list is the code-name other than that they are all the same. [02:46] ok i'll just swap code names. [02:46] <[Relic]> anyone using flickr.com and firefox? I can't figure out what I need to do to log in? I can log in through konquer but not firefox [02:46] scrottles also of note. 64bit may not have that package... idk. [02:46] BluesKaj: the 8.41 one? [02:47] well im using a 32bit celleron [02:47] noam_: hmmmm is everything working on your system? [02:47] then we may assume that that wont apply [02:47] scrottles: no..don't saw code names... [02:47] *swap [02:47] scrottles: just download the raw deb, no repository required [02:47] nosrednaekim careful. [02:48] nosrednaekim, as far as i can see yes [02:48] urgh [02:48] intelikey: of what? [02:48] nosrednaekim: no the one that came with the restricted package , whatever it may be ...havent checked yet [02:48] * nosrednaekim looks around for the MPAA [02:48] BluesKaj: ah ok... the 8.37. [02:48] i agree that the file is a simple dl but dont mess up his train of thought in the middle of hacking his sources.list [02:48] lol [02:49] nosrednaekim, it's just because kdelibs4-dev requires kdelibs4 version something-something-ubuntu2, and i have ubuntu3 [02:49] nosrednaekim: you running 64 bit too? [02:50] noam_: ah... why are you installing the -dev? [02:50] BluesKaj: yeah.. [02:50] grr i need the page that sets up the ati drivers he one i saved is missing some things [02:50] i just have it installed, i guess [02:50] google earth ? [02:50] I get crackling sound when I play a game that uses openal/alsa... I've tried artsd (no sound), and oss (no sound). What's the deal? [02:50] i haven't installed it [02:50] and for the record nosrednaekim and scrottles there are links on that page that take you to a dirrect download [02:51] noam_: ah... well dont worry about it, it should be all fixed soon when Riddel pushes the updates [02:51] i see [02:52] Method 2: Install the 8.41.7 Driver Manually<<< eh genii are yiou still online? [02:52] At some packings from compiz stands break [02:53] hey [02:53] lee986321: go to the AMD/ATI site linux drivers-> select the top of the line ATI radeon HD card and you have it [02:54] BluesKaj: rebooting to see how these ATI drivers work :) [02:55] i'm interested in upgrading, but have a few questions: one, i have CompizFusion installed via trev1nos feisty repo.. should i purge that package and remove the repo before i upgrade? two, should i remove XGL, including modifications to /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc and the compiz startup scripts, or just let the upgrade manager take care of that? and three, can i dist-upgrade, or should i use adept considering i have a custom sources.list?? === ghost is now known as rfghost [02:57] anyone else have sound issues with openal and alsa? [02:57] how stable is kubuntu 7.10 ? [02:58] ati doesnt really need anything extra [02:58] yalp...ATI drivers work great [02:58] im using it [02:59] right now i installed kubuntu 7.10, up to now it's running [02:59] you dont need to modify squat [02:59] no suspend... but with a 45 second boot to KDE, I can deal with that :) [02:59] just run compiz --replace once [02:59] btw... usplash is still broken [03:00] yeah. pretty simple [03:00] nosrednaekim I have the drivers [03:00] Ooooohh [03:01] has http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb made it to the repository or do i need to install it on a fresh f->g system?

[03:23] pidgin is ugly :p [03:23] this /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: 13: getopt: not found [03:23] Assid been to #perl lately ? [03:24] okay that just isnt good [03:24] did they post wrong release ?????????? [03:24] good night all [03:24] intelikey: nah [03:24] something there i should know abt [03:24] open amsn.. and i get an error "the requested file has not been translated in the language yet" [03:24] or something like that [03:24] are people able to play cbs's intertube videos ? [03:25] man people in pidgin are kinda arrogant in a way <<< thus follows >>> Assid been to #perl lately ? [03:25] wtf? its not translated into english/ [03:25] hehe [03:25] yeah ive seen then be arrogant too [03:25] :) [03:25] eeks im getting a super bad display for amsn [03:25] hey guys [03:25] i get that error too in amsn Assid but it doesn;t give problems so dw [03:26] my upgrade messed up so now i am forced to fresh install since my system will be unusable next time i restart [03:26] dw? [03:26] Ange|us: the fonts are horrible [03:26] gah now getting inode inconsistency errors? #(*$ it reinstall time [03:26] coreymon: go gutsy! [03:26] so, what i want to do is split my home directory off into a seperate partition so that i dont have to delete in on fresh install [03:26] how do i go about doing that [03:26] coreymon: probably best done from a liveCD [03:27] should i come back when im running from a gutsy live? [03:27] coreymon remember to back up everything first [03:27] delete unneccesary files, boot into livecd, shrink partition, create new partition [03:27] coreymon make a place for it, then copy the contents over and go. [03:27] can't be said enough [03:27] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41258/ what did i do wrong? [03:27] lol Assid , mine are fine [03:27] mcrandello: back everything up? my system is corrupted, if i back things up it will just back up corrupted stuff [03:27] coreymon: he means your data [03:27] mcrandello: all i want is my home dir [03:27] use an alternate cd, and upgrade [03:28] coreymon well anything off of /home/coreymon that you want to keep ;^) [03:28] +1 sub[t]rnl [03:28] Ange|us: absolutely horrible [03:28] coreymon i think he means make backups of all important data. [03:28] what did you do to make it look good [03:28] bye all! have a nice day/night [03:28] take care nosrednaekim [03:28] nosrednaekim you too. [03:28] hi, can someone tell me how to get the kmenu in kde 4 beta 3 on gutsy? [03:28] I always go into HDD operations with the assumption that I'm going to pooch it up and lose everything, and I'm rarely dissapointed. [03:29] i would like to backup my entire system, but wouldnt that just backup the corrupt parts too? [03:29] so no way of getting the interact hammerhead fx gamepad to work? [03:29] nothing Assid [03:29] lol [03:29] Where can I find information on the meaning to the various folders under "/" ? [03:29] it connects to the midi port of the sound card, btw [03:29] coreymon, likely [03:29] secleinteer: right click on desktop, run command "kickoff" [03:29] coreymon yes. at this point it probably would. [03:29] so, how do i know what i can safely backup? [03:29] Does anyone know if wireless works in Kubuntu 7.10?? [03:29] where you able to do that command you gave me for the usplash Assid? it gave me a getopt error [03:30] can anyone tell me where to get 7.10 alternate powerpc - iso [03:30] lumpycow: I would assume it should [03:30] draik: There is a guide I wrote myself on it, but it's slightly outdated [03:30] Ange|us: yes.. it ran here fine [03:30] nosrednaekim: it gives me the kmenu in a separate box - how can i get it on the panel? [03:30] AmyRose: Online? [03:30] draik: Yeah... I'll PM you the link [03:30] AmyRose: Thank you [03:30] intelikey: so, how do i know what i can safely backup? [03:30] so i think i need some help, after upgrade to gutsy, flgrx is not working at all [03:30] whats that site to upload images and stuff? [03:30] draik i saw a good writeup on that the other day. something about "linux file system higherarchical structure" probably not spelled like that. [03:30] like imageshack? [03:31] intelikey: Got a link? [03:31] draik let me check. [03:31] like a pastebin for images? [03:31] Thank you intelikey [03:31] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview [03:31] does flgrx driver upgrade when going to Gutsy? [03:31] Can't mount my external hard drive, outputs this message : hal-storage-removable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000 [03:31] Jucato: you have any idea what i can do? [03:31] Jucato: .... Why am I not surprised. How are you old friend? [03:31] http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html [03:32] and is there anyway i can fall back to the fiesty one that i was using... [03:32] (more technical) [03:32] draik: trying to recover, but doing well nonetheless [03:32] no joy with google earth...wonder if it will even run on gutsy [03:32] draik doesn't look like the history goes back that far. i'll google for it. "you can too" [03:32] coreymon: sorry I didn't catch, what's the problem? [03:32] hi guys.. im looking for gutsy alternate iso for powerpc.... i can't seem to find it on the download page.. [03:33] !ppc [03:33] PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [03:33] Ange|us: http://img87.imageshack.us/my.php?image=snapshot1tg6.png [03:33] intelikey: I wasn't too sure about what to google. " 'slash' folder meaning " " root folder contents" "/ definition " and a few other variations didn't help me much [03:33] seraph_: PPC is no longer officially supported. [03:33] it has amsn and the output of that command [03:33] draik: try linux filesystem heirarchy [03:33] amsn looks horrible to me [03:33] ohh noooo [03:33] Jucato: Thank you much [03:34] seraph_: there's still a community project for that though [03:34] I don't know the channel for it [03:34] anyone know whats needed to make amsn look "NORMAL"? [03:34] draik http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/linuxdir.html <<< not the one i was thinking of. but looks ok for a simple what's what [03:34] oh yeah better than the ubuntu one [03:35] thank you ubotu and Jucato [03:35] i really liked the one i saw the "other day" been about 6 weeks i guess now. [03:35] intelikey: you happen to use amsn by any chance? [03:35] !thanks | seraph_ [03:35] seraph_: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [03:35] can someone help me with my screen refresh rate; it's just 60 Hz, I get no other option [03:35] Assid no. [03:36] rabindra: TFT/LCD? [03:36] Assid:CRT [03:36] reconfigure xorg [03:36] Assid: ok i made the command, now im gonna reboot to test.

[03:37] rabindra: /etc/X11/xorg.conf pastebin that [03:37] rabindra: me from where? the syncs? [03:37] I really like kubuntu, but I'm going to switch back to Ubuntu if I can't figure out how to mount my external hard drive! [03:37] rabindra: is your monitor listed in the Monitor & Display applet in System Settings? [03:39] 4296 frames in 5.0 seconds = 859.163 FPS [03:39] ok, i cant take this any more, ever since the upgrade to gutsy andy flash or java on a webpage freezes firefox, anyone know what could be going on? I'm on amd64 and i think i used the 32 bit wrapper program to get flash 9 working [03:39] is that decent while running compiz? [03:40] hiya [03:40] 33456 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6691.180 FPS [03:40] corinth, u using 7.04 or 7.10? [03:40] mike-kubuntu: nice.. which card? [03:40] Jucato: someting wierd happened with my upgrade, causing it to terminate in the middle [03:40] Jucato: the result of which being that my system is probably corrupted, forcing me to have to do a fresh install [03:41] i get one frame each time i refresh it. [03:41] coreymon: try continuing using "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade --install-recommends"? [03:41] Jucato: you mean i dont have to do fresh [03:41] rabindra: you there? [03:41] coreymon: probably not if it can still be saved [03:41] xevious: i think it is listed but my model is not listed in Manufacturer's list [03:42] Assid: ya the syncs [03:42] do version numbers actually mean anything? why .04 and .10? [03:42] rabindra: what brand/model? [03:42] noam_- Year.Month [03:42] are there .05 and .57 somewhere along th way? [03:42] ah [03:43] 7.10 = 2007-10 = released October 2007 [03:43] makes sense [03:43] Jucato: this looks bad [03:43] http://pastebin.ca/743098 [03:43] coreymon: try "sudo dpkg --configure -a" [03:44] noam_ if they released more than one per month it would look something like 7.10.3 7.10.24 7.11.6 ...... [03:44] Assid: no luck [03:44] Assid: i bet the usplash is somekind bugged or something [03:44] Jucato: again, this looks bad [03:44] Jucato: http://pastebin.ca/743099 [03:44] sudo apt-get install module-assistant build-essential fakeroot dh-make debhelper \debconf libstdc++5 linux-headers-generic how is this line writen ?

[03:50] Angelus it sounds to me like you installed linux in the wrong box. [03:50] Angelus ill paste the entire doc [03:51] is there a repo available to install realplayer from, or are people generally just installing the package downloaded from real.com? [03:51] yes donsdw i did thanks [03:51] jmichaelx, i think medibuntu has it [03:51] Jucato: lets find out [03:51] what doc lee986321? [03:51] jmichaelx, but why do you need real player for?... [03:51] haha [03:51] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41261/ [03:52] aaargh.. i want amsn to look decent [03:52] rabindra: i would check the specs (horizontal and vertical refresh) of the other 794 series monitors on samsung.com and see if they match your monitor. then you can just use the 794 line under manufacturers->samsung [03:52] noam_: i don't think they do, i have the medibuntu repo enabled, and no real player there [03:52] Angelus the one i just pasted its for the ati drivers [03:52] hrmm [03:52] i have geforce lee986321 [03:52] seires 8 [03:52] :p [03:52] sorry, i got kicked off [03:52] Jucato: my guess is that it means shared file system [03:52] oh [03:52] oh [03:52] noam_: i use it for some things.... .rm streams if i want to watch them in a stand alone player. not all that much, but i do use it some [03:53] i just had a theory [03:53] Jucato: that seems to be the one that makes the most sense in the list [03:53] what do you need realplayer for wen kubuntu has so many good players [03:53] if you also were on an ati [03:53] coreymon: you can always apt-cache show sfs-server [03:53] I'm running VMware WS on desktop 2.

[04:03] something that i might have missed [04:04] ekrengel: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the flgrx driver [04:04] also, look into aticonfig [04:04] yeah i had a custom xorg.conf file in fiesty [04:04] ekrengel, you could always use the ati installer, but you'd have to comment out everything in /etc/modprobe.d/lrm-video and then manually search and destroy ubuntu's fglrx modules for it to work [04:04] that was working great [04:04] err should i exclude the range for anti aliasing? [04:05] sub[t]rnl http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41263/ [04:05] ekrengel, that's a last resort sort of thing though [04:05] well i'll try the reconfigure and see if i can get it somewhat working [04:06] lee986321: you got some other package manager program open ? like adept [04:07] wow, it must be a plugin [04:07] i wonder what one [04:07] add them back in 1 at a time, restart and test until you got the culprit [04:07] badaboom badabing [04:08] i bet its flash though [04:08] lee986321: forget what i said [04:08] will there be a gutsy-commercial repository, or has that been replaced by the partners repo? [04:09] mike-kubunt1, what are we up to flash 10 now? maybe 9 or 8 would work better if that's the party crasher [04:09] ok [04:09] err [04:09] Angelus: i found out about the amsn issue [04:09] module-assistant hmm [04:09] yeah I need to translate all this into kubuntu and change fiesty to gutsy [04:09] you need to recompile tcl/tk AND amsn [04:10] lol Assid nice fix [04:10] Assid: im playing with the startupmanager to fix the bootup splash [04:10] somebody knows what size is kubuntu bootup splash? [04:11] mcrandello: do they have a 64bit flash out yet? [04:11] no mike-kubunt1 [04:11] mike-kubunt1: but you can use nspluginwrapper [04:11] yeah, thats what i'm doing so far [04:11] i think i'm still on flash 9 though [04:11] mike-kubunt1, that one I have no idea on [04:11] i dunno lee986321 there's a module-assistant for me [04:12] hmm [04:12] maybe there's a problem with the repository you're using [04:12] that didn't work [04:12] okay. I just put gutsy on here and adept says there's a new distribution available, I think I'm doing this wrong [04:12] ah i never should have upgraded [04:14] my rep has it lee986321 [04:14] http://ftp.netspace.net.au/pub/ubuntu/pool/universe/m/module-assistant/ [04:15] well, its not my rep, its the rep i use [04:17] wow [04:17] i'm not sure what messed it up, but it was seriously messed up [04:17] i desabled all the plugins and it still didn't fix it [04:18] is the last line being written coretly? [04:18] ok looks pretty much the same as before after the second go-around with the reconfigure [04:18] at the top toolbar with all my icons, everything is blurred out [04:19] wilson that is ok I jsut need to know i the last line is writen corectly [04:19] i dont know what else to do... [04:19] i might just backup my stuff and do a fresh install of fiesty [04:20] er, on the last run, you didn't use sudo [04:20] Nver mind Problem solved [04:21] Konqueror keeps crashing? [04:21] how do i transfer my bookmarks over? [04:21] Icannot d/load gkrellm with add/remove,,had to use apt-get ,,like debian :) [04:21] i mooved bookmarks.html but it didnt seem to do much [04:21] seriously though what happens if I click in adept to upgrade to the new distribution. I'm already on Gutsy... [04:22] * mcrandello doesn't want to open a portal to the future [04:23] greeetings. eh... i seem to be having some problems running the 7.10 live cd. [04:23] tell all [04:23] I had an interesting glitch in the RC for Gutsy where entries in the K-Menu were labelled "K-menu_entries--Control Centre" and such, has anybody run into this and/or know if it was fixed in the release? (AMD64/OEM Install) [04:24] kcontrol crashes,,I know that [04:24] It boots normally for a bit and then dumps me back to the cli with "udev_event[2230]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit". [04:25] It returns the same trying in safe mode and with regular Ubuntu, so I'm assuming my machine is being screwy again. [04:25] fausticon, This will fix it http://sidux.com/ [04:26] Fixed mine :) [04:27] heh [04:27] hmmm...I've been using Gutsy since August.

[04:33] you like sidux? [04:34] So people :), I want to upgrade to the latest 7.10, I want to make a back up of the system before doing so, what can you recommend? [04:34] what does this mean...............Hal-Storage-Removable-Mount-All-Options-Refused UID 1000........rec'd this when plugging in my USB External HDD [04:34] mike: what do you like about it? [04:34] hey guys, I can't remember. During installation, does Kubuntu as where the /home directory is? Or do I have to manuall set that after the installation? [04:35] ekrengel, Sidux with smxi is so damn fast and easy [04:35] do you have an ati card? [04:35] Too many errors in 7.10 [04:35] ekrengel: every little bit helps [04:35] ekrengel, Nvidia on this one [04:36] ati 200 xpress on the laptop === brandon_ is now known as ImpaledOnRebar [04:37] * mrksbrd wants to know what does this mean...............Hal-Storage-Removable-Mount-All-Options-Refused UID 1000........rec'd this when plugging in my USB External HDD [04:37] How to serve up strigi to users on intranet?

[04:40] reporting to ubuntu is the same as reporting to kubuntu in launchpad right [04:40] Well it worked ,,,,I hope it still does\ [04:40] yeah [04:40] k [04:40] 3rd bug filed [04:40] Anyone know about the /home mountin gduring install? [04:40] mike: what does sidux use? kde? xfce? [04:40] few more to go [04:40] lol [04:40] ekrengel, kde [04:40] full and fast [04:40] Can I put whole my Kubuntu system and all in it to a external hard drive and later recover if upgrade to 7.10 goes wrong? [04:41] Eh... I have never had good experiences with external harddrives. [04:41] you can't recover an upgrade, but you can try to repair by downgrading etc. [04:41] flaccid, i get this error in terminal....Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0 [04:41] Downgrading hell! [04:41] mrksbrd, people have reported that a lot [04:41] Downgrading == the Devil's tool. [04:42] lol, what does it mean??/ [04:42] it means it wants that file to be owned by root and not the user [04:42] The 7.10 release is not sorted :( [04:42] report it on launchpad [04:42] !bugs [04:42] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/ - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots [04:42] i should just go back to 7.04 [04:43] flaccid , I was thinking of do some sort of back up of everything, and just rawly rewrite the whole partition if upgrade to 7.10 goes wrong? [04:43] ubuntu gui works a little better but I am not a Gnome fan [04:43] i think we have to get used to premature releases [04:43] <[Relic]> any ideas on why I have no applications list on the bar? [04:43] 7.10 not sorted...? Lemme know know 'cause I'm downloading it as we speak. [04:43] mike: what does that mean? Not sorted? [04:43] arash, i would install with a separate /home partition which is not default so that you do'nt have to worry [04:43] many probs [04:44] compiz-fusion not installed [04:44] its pretty normal for ubuntu to release a buggy prod release [04:44] heh [04:44] compiz-fusion is not with kubuntu, but unubntu [04:44] !compiz-fusion [04:44] mike, this is all a known fact [04:44] 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 [04:44] it can be i nstalled [04:44] There are always problems. Its just whether or not I can get to sleep tonight. [04:44] Its included in Ubuntu? [04:44] sudo apt-get install compiz-kde compizconfig-settings-manager [04:44] boom, kde compiz [04:44] there should only be a few, minor problems with prod releases. they should be tested throughouly first [04:44] im not going back to sleep untill i get it back to the way it was [04:44] lol [04:45] rc 16 :( [04:45] mike: do you think 7.10 is not worthy of desktop use yet? [04:45] * arash waits a month with upgrade :p [04:45] more bugs.. more bugs.... [04:45] lol [04:45] not for a noob too many fixes needed [04:45] * Assid does more bug reporting [04:45] but it seems to have so many new good features :( [04:45] like? [04:46] i am doing more bug reporting in 1 day then i did in 1 week [04:46] crap, I just spent all damn day dowloading the DVD hoping it would be more stable than my 7.04 [04:46] Dolphin, OO 2.3 [04:46] http://sidux.com/ =stable [04:46] it might be stable for some users. everyone's variables are different [04:46] Gaia [04:46] KDE 4 Beta! <3 [04:47] mike: i'll give sidux a try [04:47] KDE 4 looks ugly imo [04:47] I want linux to work for me not the converse :) [04:47] it you want a working unix desktop, something bsd is going to be more stable than linux [04:47] mike, good one ;) [04:47] Give KDE 4 some time. And yes it does look like it got hit by a bus. [04:47] but im seeing on the front page that ati driver is still broken in xorg 7.3 [04:48] so i dunno if it will make a difference, what is guty's xorg version? [04:48] Flaccid, why would you ever wish BSD on someone... ever... [04:48] kubuntu 7.10 is fine for me [04:48] there's a few nagging things but meh [04:48] BigPick, because somebody mentioned the word stability.... [04:48] duh [04:48] I am using compiz-fusion in Sidux with much less cpu input than ubuntu? [04:48] ksystemlog crashes for no reason, but it looks to be a kde4 app bastardised into kubuntu [04:49] Yeah, my servers were stable. So stable nothing ran. Then I switched to Debian then Ubuntu. Much happier now. [04:49] Rocks are stable. [04:49] mike: why are you in the kubuntu channel if you are not a kubuntu user? [04:49] wilson: ksystemlog is a KDE 3 app [04:49] BigPick, probably a user problem. what were the servers running? [04:49] 1 more bug reported [04:49] BigDaddy, I have it installed on one drive ,,I am a user [04:50] kde-window-decoractor crashed a few times, so im using emerald, that's fine. If you right click on the titlebar and chose 'move' or any of the move options and try to use them, the thing you are moving will just disappear, it's still running, but disappeared [04:50] Im running gutsy i386 using the intel i915 chipset... on my viewsonic monitor it seems to refuse displaying the image at 1440x900... how can I fix this (it worked fine under feisty) [04:50] meh, I'll be ready to upgrade by the time CDs arrive, so I better get going (logins to shipit) [04:50] BigPick: rocks are stable until someone stumbles over them [04:51] some people don't know how to admin rocks, too :) [04:51] flaccid, openbsd 4.2, freebsd 5.5 [04:51] mike: OK... I have seen people come into a room just to pimp their fav distro. Didn't mean to insult you, just so you know [04:51] I will have you all know my admining skills onced caused a server to kill itself. [04:51] Nuked: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [04:51] Hung itself by its own power chord. [04:51] BigDaddy, Maybe several updates needed but not what I would expect for a 'final" [04:51] BigPick, problem looks like it was you :) [04:51] sub[t]rnl: I did that... no result [04:52] Nuked: are you using xserver-xorg-video-intel? [04:52] I know! BSD is not idiot proof. Ubuntu isn't perfect but its getting better. [04:52] I would assume so sub[t]rnl [04:52] nothing is idiot proof, and nothing should be :) [04:52] should I have used the i810? [04:52] mike: do you know if there is a point in the kubuntu installation that alowes you to assign the partition the /home is on? [04:52] jacto: my bad, i got 3.4 mixed up with 4 [04:52] i think you might mean the word intuitive :) [04:52] flaccid: agreed [04:52] BigDaddy, I also like pclos and Sidux ,,both kde [04:53] pclos? [04:53] Nuked: well, I have used that resolution with the intel driver, and setting it within xorg.conf [04:53] how do you ad an icon to a webpage [04:53] like the left hand of the adress bar [04:53] Intuitive... nah, sounds too much like a windows interface word. [04:53] Jucato: is it in the source branch of 3.5, i couldnt find it [04:53] mike-kubunt1: add a picture file named favicon.ico to the root directory of the website [04:53] sub[t]rnl: the screen doesnt display the image properly... there are 2 inches of black sitting to the left of my desktop [04:54] Nuked: adjust your monitor? [04:54] mike-kubunt1: it can be anything png, jpg or gif but just name it favicon.ico [04:54] sub[t]rnl: I have... still nothing [04:54] BigPick, its actually UI theory :) [04:54] Idiotproof may be a high goal to set but I think it is an achievable one. :) [04:54] QwertyM: are there size limits? [04:54] hrm [04:54] I got the wrong screen resolution on boot? [04:54] sub[t]rnl: its really strange actually [04:54] 1280x800? [04:54] mike-kubunt1: no .. but it looks good if its square [04:54] mike-kubunt1: and also make it small in size so that it doesn't take much time loading :) [04:55] flaccid, the day I start having to learn theory is the day I start laying hardware floors. [04:55] Nuked: sounds like your vertical and horizontal syncs are off maybe [04:55] Nuked: google your monitor or check the manual for the syncs, and try plugging them in [04:55] BigPick, awww thats no good [04:55] I know, I hate splinters. [04:55] lol [04:55] sub[t]rnl: the syncs are probably off [04:56] * sub[t]rnl nods [04:56] had that issue a time or 12 [04:56] wilson: http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/sysadmin/ [04:56] mike: are you taling about your framebuffer? [04:56] gui when booting [04:56] sub[t]rnl: its a pain digging that info up... it was supplied in a little handbook w/ the monitor [04:57] Ack... we gotta figure out a torrent-based upgrade client. [04:57] sub[t]rnl, when up and running resolution comes right [04:57] QwertyM: ok, grated the files huge right now, but its not workin here: http://fuag.is-a-geek.com/favicon.ico [04:57] 1024x768 on this monitor [04:58] mike-kubunt1: I can see it load on your homepage just fine [04:58] mike: what kind of video card? [04:58] mike-kubunt1: you might have to refresh/force refresh your cache? :) === ubuntu_ is now known as lee986321 [04:59] hello all! [04:59] i was upgrading and i got a segfault and it closed the dist upgrade window [04:59] Nvidia Geforce [04:59] how do i resume the upgrade from where it left off?

[04:59] QwertyM: thanks, your right [04:59] this is what i have done, i made a frenh gusty install with gnome, and then i added kubuntu-destop and kde === atlfalcons866 is now known as Billy_gates [05:00] and kde is working lot better than the gnome counterpart [05:00] juan, You find Ubuntu better sorted? [05:00] rr72: sudo dpkg -configure -a === Billy_gates is now known as atlfalcons866 [05:00] in a terminal [05:00] i'm not sure i like it really [05:00] oh it's rr72 [05:01] dont help him! ;p [05:01] i smell tacos [05:01] right back at yah posingaspopular :P [05:01] can anyone recomend either libtorrent or libtutil for torrent client development? [05:01] hi folks, is kde4 b3 still broken in gutsy? [05:01] don't help posingaspopular! he's just posing! :) [05:01] fulat2k: define broken [05:01] oh Jucato, it's much too early for you to be awake. dont be grouchy. [05:01] * n8k99 doesn`t help anybody but himself [05:01] ok guyd I am not able nor do I have the capacity to understand at waht I need to do to get my ati working [05:01] i'm getting a dcopserver error after upgrade from feisty to gutsy and i can't login to kde. i can log in failsafe. i tried removing /tmp/.ICE-unix and ~/.DCOPserver_* [05:01] mike, some things are not really working [05:01] fulat2k: yeah, can't say broken but it sure is unusable .. [05:01] fulat2k, Not complete [05:01] posingaspopular: it's noon exactly here. it's definitely not too early :) [05:02] my mediawiki directory vanashed when i upgraded [05:02] contrast83: no luck, couldnt get it to work [05:02] damn. [05:02] mike: whats your highest resolution in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [05:02] got sold on the screenies {G} [05:02] n8k99~ couldnt i just dist-upgrade? [05:02] anyone know where it mighta gone? [05:02] so unless, I can figure it out, iam jsut going to have to figure something else out, I am on my 20th reformatting of the hdd [05:02] Angelus: Sorry, man. Not sure what else you could do. :-\ [05:02] when i talked to you yesterday around 4am, it would have been like 3pm over there... how were you just waking up? [05:02] contrast83: shoot myself or the computer lol [05:02] mike-kubunt1: have you tried using locate? [05:02] wow 20th reformatting? [05:02] mike-kubunt1: locate it? [05:02] !jffs2 [05:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about jffs2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [05:02] all I ask for is some kind of help in getting the drivers up and running right..hell I'lllet you in my system if that is waht it takes [05:02] Angelus: Dual-booting? [05:03] sub[t]rnl, 1024x768 is all this lcd can take but it boots at 1280x800? [05:03] yes contrast83 [05:03] rr72: you were in the middle of updating when it quit- thaty command will pick up where you left off [05:03] k ty [05:03] more bug reports [05:03] has anyone installed kde 4 with gusty? [05:03] Angelus: You could try just disabling USplash and having a text-only boot. [05:03] looks like they took some weird beta and released it [05:03] Angelus: didnt work for me [05:03] mike: whatever the highest resolution is in your xorg.conf, is what the login screen "thinks" the resolution is at, which can cause it to appear much larger than wanted [05:04] !kde4 [05:04] KDE 4 is the next major release of the K Desktop Environment. For more information see . The Release Schedule is available at http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.0_Release_Schedule. Beta 3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta3.php [05:04] mike: so kill the high end ones that you don't use [05:04] Assid: neither for me [05:04] juan: Yeah. Beta 3's a big step up from Beta 2, but still a ways off from being usable on an everyday basis, for me, at least. [05:04] adept manager still has PID locked :/ kill it? [05:04] mike: what version of kde does sidux use? [05:04] sub[t]rnl: still no result [05:04] yes rr72 [05:04] * lee986321 heart broken that he doesn't have the mentle abilliteis to follow complex instructions [05:04] sub[t]rnl, ok i will have to manually edit,,this is not so noob friendly,who has been writing the reviews?? [05:05] mike: if you want noob friendly, boot windows [05:05] anyone know why dolphin and not stick to konqueror? [05:05] sub[t]rnl: chill out [05:05] Nuked: ? [05:05] I think.I'll just forget aobut it and go back to playing my video games [05:05] Assid: worst, my amsn fonts got ugly too lol [05:05] the noob friendly thing [05:05] Hay all i just finished my upgrade to gusty, and i noticed there are 3 packages to update, so when i try to update it, it says that there is a new distribution version available, what should i do? [05:05] hahaha [05:05] juan preparing you for kde4 [05:05] lee986321: my ac is not working ... :) [05:06] Angelus: wanna see a dumb bug? [05:06] juan: Because they're GNOME-ifying KDE. For further evidence, compare System Settings (now the default) to Control Center. [05:06] but you still have konqueror file manager juan [05:06] !dolphin | juan [05:06] juan: dolphin is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror → Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin. [05:06] Assid: the boot up splash was a pretty dumb one LoL [05:06] how can i completely remove kde and switch to gnome? [05:06] mike: the fact of the matter is that ubuntu and every other linux distro will kick your butt every now and then [05:06] a/c...I know nothing aobut that lol [05:06] shadowhywind: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [05:06] shadowhywind: see if that corrects it [05:06] Angelus: logout.. use a wrong password.. it shows wrong password, but.. it wont reset to allow you to retry [05:06] mike: but stay the course... nothing will compare once you get things up and running [05:06] so you have to restart X [05:06] any ideas on the benefits of dolphin? [05:07] Jucato: is sooooo smart [05:07] hahah [05:07] how would i port the output of locate to a file? [05:07] is it better, faster? what? [05:07] juan usability [05:07] juan: lighter on resources perhaps [05:07] its to long for terminal output [05:07] Jucato: ? [05:07] n8k99~ python keeps locking it [05:07] mike-kubunt1: locate blah > output_file [05:07] juan: usability, new features, faster, lighter, cleaner code, easier to maintain [05:07] Nuked, kcontrol crashes as well [05:07] I guess , I wsn't as smart as I thuaght I was. [05:07] the dpkg database [05:07] juan: and is actively worked on [05:07] 7.0.4 was solid [05:07] c-f still crashes on me [05:07] compute codes changed so much over the las 20 years lol [05:07] hmmm.... interesting rr72 [05:08] i think its some option i enabled [05:08] How do I change the keyboard layout? [05:08] this distribution upgrade has been at it for a long time for just 5 packages [05:08] python keeps launching dist-upgrade [05:08] the only packages that have been kepy back are compiz-core, compiz-kde, compiz-plugins [05:08] rr72: adept is locked? [05:08] If I want a stripped down file manager for the default, I'll go to GNOME. [05:08] Iam going to try one more time [05:08] then just run a dist-upgrade [05:08] Are there any screenshots of 7.10? [05:08] mike: did you dist-upgrade by any chance? [05:08] Toma-: System Settings -> Regional & Layout [05:09] should i remove the pre-released repo now that the upgrade is done? [05:09] sub[t]rnl~ the dpkg database is locked [05:09] se7en^Of^9 oh hi there [05:09] morning lee986321 [05:09] :) [05:09] I recognize Dolphin as a good program, but I very strongly disagree with it being the default in a desktop environment like KDE, whose strongpoint is configurability and functionality, even if it takes a bit more time to familiarize yourself with it at first. /rant [05:09] i have no splash screen when the system is booting up -or down for that matter, just a black screen [05:09] ok here it is guys, Iam not an IT stuedent, I am a comon person with a dissabillity in learning and understanding complex codes and such. this is why I ask for help [05:10] i enabled a cube [05:10] rr72: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock && sudo dpkg --configure -a [05:10] and all i get is 2 sides of a plane [05:10] stupid crap [05:10] aw crap, i lost my mediawiki files again... [05:10] no upgrades for the last 2 days i am shocked [05:10] the only programing I did was on a c-64 [05:10] Nuked, Fresh install in a dedicated drive ,,"cannot du kubuntu" It breaks [05:10] se7en^Of^9: kdelibs upgrade has been issued [05:10] and it was the basic of all basic [05:10] Assid: the solution is simple [05:10] sub[t]rnl~ python is running procs that are using the db right now, like dist-upgrade and when i kill them they just come back [05:11] mike-kubunt1: use that extraction operator or something "command > filename" [05:11] Great for real noobs :) [05:11] QwertyM: i found it, but its a blank template again [05:11] I had one of those. :) It was amazing how good the word processors were for the C-64 all cramed into 64!

[06:41] and find your .exe program rabindra_ [06:41] after i have changed it to vesa [06:41] charlie5: all I know is, I'm trying again to reproduce the error, so that I can ask the people here for their advice :/ [06:41] rabindra_: look in / (root) [06:42] 800x600 resolution isn't quite enough :P [06:42] my_: There's http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Language-Brian-W-Kernighan/dp/0131101633 which they say is the best book, I still have to give it a read though .. I learnt all my C on local author books and .edu sites. [06:42] charlie5: well... it looks like it worked this time... did you close your other running apps? [06:42] redshadowhero: thanks ... i will stay tuned and follow your progress ... if there's anything i can do to assist, please let me know [06:43] redshadowhero: no, i just got up and found the error b4 coming here [06:43] VousDeux: yep that worked, now I have another error [06:43] VousDeux: but yes you were correct [06:43] charlie5: amarock, kopete, and a few other apps were running when this error occured the first time, and I thought it might be those... apparently not. Have you tried doing an upgrade again? [06:44] VousDeux: delete the old kernel stuff from /boot fixes the problem :) [06:44] redshadowhero: oh, i didn;t read your question properly sorry ... i had konversation openm and amarok, (plus 3 konqereor windows) [06:44] clyrrad: what problem now? [06:44] something about ztdata [06:44] redshadowhero: i'll close the window and try the upgrade again now [06:44] it killed teh upgrade process [06:44] charlie5: try closing/quitting EVERYTHING (except IRC, which didn't seem to affect it this second time) and reloading. [06:44] where else can i put scripts so they start after kde autostart scripts do [06:44] charlie5: yeah. [06:44] clyrrad: maybe you deleted something wrong? [06:44] i need to run kde-window-decorater --replace after compiz loads [06:44] redshadowhero: great, thank you very much ! [06:45] se7en^Of^9> i don't find any .exe files may be probably my filesystem is FAT not NTFS and that's why [06:45] but even calling it xkdewindeco it gets run before compiz [06:45] wow this book has been around for a while [06:45] VousDeux: nah, only files that had old kernel versions not matching my uname -a [06:45] charlie5: don't thank me; it hasn't worked yet! [06:45] ah question of the day [06:45] clyrrad: okay...I guess we would need to google the error message then [06:45] anyone know if they have a RAW plugin for Kubuntu??? [06:45] hi, I'm installing ubuntu on a system with two hard drives, and I'd like the bulk of both of them to be partitioned logically to store data. is there a way to have them mount to the same directory? [06:45] who here knows the 4 ways humans learn? [06:46] VousDeux: absolutly, already on it :) [06:46] that is waht kind of learners are there [06:46] redshadowhero: at least i have some hope now ... did you also see a probelm with x11-common ?

[06:49] oops wrong thing [06:49] VousDeux: FYI: Unauthenticated packages found 'tzdata' is the message i get [06:49] I am having some very serious issues with gutsy. how do you make the appy button in the 'users configuration' become enabled? why do the hard disk *not* show up on the desktop unless I at least un/mount one? my box just restarted out of the blue :( [06:49] gutsy is bad so far :( [06:49] se7en^Of^9:yes it is there in c drive[sda1] [06:49] Jucato: oh fun, computer shutting down on me for no obvious reason [06:50] go to configure wine in you kmenue open applications and add new application than browse to /media/sda1/ [06:50] gutsy works like a charm on my other laptop, but I can't get openchrome drivers to work on this laptop :/ [06:51] I am trying to restrict an account on the system from modifying in any way, any file/folder creating/deleting on anything but in there own home directory. I think I know how to do this but must have it wrong as not a single gui helps here... [06:52] heh, no joke, gutsy feels like alpha :( [06:52] se7en^Of^9> help [06:53] clyrrad: I'll bet that has something to do with time zone [06:53] now I kind of know why some people go to #debian to ask help lol [06:53] charlie5: no... x11 is the GUI, though... [06:53] clyrrad: I wonder if your install media has some corruption [06:54] whats the save comand for nano [06:54] Hi all. [06:54] clyrrad: sounds like maybe the md5 doesn't match or something [06:54] crtl [06:54] +0 or [06:54] ctrl+o [06:55] damn... my son only belongs to his group... no other. he has access to any external device when mounted and all of sudden he just owns it. I go to my account, I cannot create/delete anything on the drive... this is just broken :( [06:55] how could this get out? [06:55] redshadowhero: distribution upgrade seems to have hung when configuring libglib2.0 ... guess i'll have to kill it and start again ... [06:55] ok [06:55] I've just install dapper, and I PCMCIA crash. I remember reading there was a fix for it on the dapperUpgrade page.

[07:18] quit/ [07:18] eh iam a newby [07:18] plus I am dead dog tired [07:18] intelikey: uh, strange, mingetty wasn't installed [07:18] intelikey oh sure [07:19] I'm curious...what makes Kubuntu what it is. The kernel belongs to the kernel team, the window manager belongs to KDE, the software belongs to the people who write them...if all of the components are handled abroad, what exactly is Kubuntu? [07:19] intelikey: aptitude search getty |grep ^i returns nothing, it's weird [07:19] !kubuntu | VousDeux [07:19] VousDeux: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE [07:19] !find getty [07:19] Found: fgetty, libmodem-vgetty-perl, mgetty, mgetty-docs, mgetty-fax (and 5 others) [07:19] VousDeux: we make sure they all work together and that the user doesn't have to feel they're taken from different locations :) [07:19] intelikey making a paste bin [07:20] VousDeux: in short, Kubuntu presents a finished product, an operating system [07:20] Jucato: how to disable system beep [07:20] lee986321 ty. [07:20] !pastebin [07:20] 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) [07:20] does the Kubuntu live cd have the desktop effecst like you see in the ubuntu live cd? [07:20] Jucato: okay, so why am I being told that I need to go talk to the kernel team about my hardware support issues? [07:20] posingaspopular: in Konsole? where? [07:20] in general [07:20] its annoying [07:20] i know i saw it somewhere on the planet too [07:20] posingaspopular: general system notifications are in System Settings -> Notifications [07:21] Jucato: why can't Kubuntu team go talk to kernel team? [07:21] but Konversation and Konsole have their own [07:21] intelikey http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41283/ [07:21] VousDeux: because the Kubuntu team doesn't make the kernel [07:21] does taht help? [07:21] VousDeux: let me give you an analogy. if you can hold on for a few secs while I type [07:21] Jucato: that sounds like a contradiction to me [07:22] Jucato: okay [07:22] in konsole [07:22] intelikey wahts it for exactly? [07:22] eahding to bead [07:22] yodaz please run the same command "ps -A x | grep etty " and compair with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41283/ [07:23] anyone fiddled with kde4? [07:23] !compiz [07:23] 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 [07:23] intelikey: same stuff, except pid numbers [07:23] lee986321 cause i dont have gutsy and needed the info for yodaz he has a "no console login" issue. [07:23] oh ouch [07:24] yodaz ok. then it's not that. [07:24] intelikey that bites [07:24] glad to be of service [07:24] VousDeux: think of the kernel, the packages, the desktop environment (KDE), the drivers, etc. as raw food ingredients. what distros do is to use those ingredients to make a complete meal. Now, a distro is made up of different teams, say, different cooks in charge of different areas [07:24] lee986321 it would for me. [07:24] * Jucato breathes [07:24] how much longer before Linux will appeal to people who just want an alternative and just want to be users...not developers? [07:24] VousDeux: it does that already [07:24] VousDeux prolly never. [07:25] did it help him any? [07:25] VousDeux: Got 3 right here. [07:25] VousDeux: the Kubuntu team's job is to focus on one set of ingredients (the desktop) to make a different kind of complete meal: the Kubuntu value meal [07:25] lee986321 yes. process of elemination. [07:25] DaSkreech: no it doesn't [07:25] VousDeux: Just patient ones [07:25] yodaz try this. in a terminal sudo init Q [07:25] heehee intelikey isn't that what science is all about lol [07:26] <_Pete_> morning! [07:26] VousDeux: the reason why the Kubuntu team doesn't handle kernel issues is because it's the kernel team that prepares that ingredient [07:26] <_Pete_> I have some problems after uprading to 7.10 [07:26] Jucato: its called the k diet [07:26] :D [07:26] I've been trying for almost 10 years, but I have never found a single distro that worked completely...I am always left with some problem that I cannot solve and nobody else will solve [07:26] VousDeux is a non programmer [07:26] idk, i'm not a scientist, i'm a baptist [07:26] I think it fell on deaf ears though [07:26] :) [07:26] <_Pete_> Kopete no longer works but crashes when I try to connect to MSN server [07:26] _Pete_: known bug, fix on the way [07:26] VousDeux i mean i am not aprogrammer [07:27] <_Pete_> Jucato: I see... [07:27] <_Pete_> any workarounds ? [07:27] yodaz did that fix it ? [07:27] how can Linux ever expect to appeal to the masses if the masses have to be developers or understand development just to be users? [07:27] intelikey are you finished with he window or does m ylogging off efct it? [07:28] Jucato: Give him the link [07:28] DaSkreech: you give him the link :/ [07:28] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdenetwork/+bug/153500 [07:28] lee986321 ah can you do that in either english or geek so i can understand it ? [07:28] (does it always have to be? :( ) [07:28] _Pete_: see that link [07:28] <_Pete_> ok thanks [07:28] intelikey lol [07:29] Selencha [07:29] lee986321 yeah thanks you can go at any time. [07:29] english or geek [07:29] VousDeux: they have to understand how Linux is developed not necessarily do it themselves [07:29] oh that means to your health in gaelig [07:29] posingaspopular prefer yidish ? [07:30] * posingaspopular speaks english and sanskrit [07:30] _Pete_: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3041 [07:30] the majority of the masses do not want to be involved, they just want something that works and is easy to understand [07:30] Jucato: Sorry a rat seems to have gotten in my kitchen I was encouraging him to move out [07:30] deos the bot even know gaelic? [07:31] !ga [07:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about ga - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [07:31] intelikey: nothing happens [07:31] so why is the 7.10 update appear to be frozen after "Installed libc6" ? [07:31] old english? [07:31] VousDeux: Then use Debian stable [07:31] !gaelic [07:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about gaelic - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [07:31] yodaz hmmm .... [07:31] intelikey: I reboot, wait [07:31] well well a lsnguage it dont know [07:31] night all Selancha [07:32] why can't kubuntu be stable? [07:32] VousDeux: use an older release of Kubuntu. you might find it more stable [07:32] Cause it's young? [07:33] i'll wait. but i'm not expecting that to fix it... at least i "hope it doesn't" (not that i don't want you to have success, just that i don't want linux to be that "windows'ish") [07:33] <_Pete_> DaSkreech: good except I'm running x86_64 system [07:33] and if Kubuntu doesn't work for you, feel completely free to try out another distro that might work for you [07:33] _Pete_: Ah. Good point [07:33] _Pete_: ah that's a problem... [07:33] you'll have to wait for the real fix to be uploaded to the servers [07:33] which *should* be really soon [07:33] Wow what problems gutsy has eh? Seems it should still be in beta lol [07:33] <_Pete_> ok... maybe I should use some other client while waiting then [07:34] MaskedOne: Like? [07:34] MaskedOne heh. [07:34] !info amsn [07:34] amsn: An MSN messenger written in Tcl. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.97RC1+dfsg-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 3371 kB, installed size 10956 kB [07:34] Anyone have a sound pop coming from their speakers when shutingdown or starting their computer? [07:34] It is getting annoying [07:34] Had the problem when i tried PCLinuxOS2007, Kubuntu Feisty worked fine though [07:34] you shutdown and start often ? [07:35] also KMenu does not display any of my changes I make, completely ignores them [07:35] it's not just about me. I am patient and understanding. I have worked in I.T. since 1997. I'm no stranger to development. But I am not the majority, and that still doesn't make it much less of a frustration. [07:35] I have a laptop and since i have yet to find a linux that works with hibernate, yes lol [07:36] VousDeux what issue you got ? [07:36] VousDeux: Where are you seeing the frustration now? [07:36] MaskedOne: I hear Gutsy is doing pretty well. What model ? [07:36] at the present, the distribution upgrade is stuck on 'Instaling the upgrades' and has been for three hours. It says if I cancel my system may become unstable. [07:37] All it had on the list was 5 packages...not major components [07:37] then kill it. [07:38] if I kill it, I may have to spend the next 10 hours trying to get stuff stable again [07:38] this just seems to happen way too often [07:39] DaSkreech I have a HP Pavilion zv6000 which worked perfectly with feisty (except minor wireless problems) [07:39] elo, so.. My system is now seriously messed up after various atempt at updating, I'm about to succcesfully burn an image now I wonder if I will be able to upgrade with the cd instead and now having to format [07:39] not* [07:39] let me guess, you use a gui for every thing ? [07:39] Vous, I had the same problem I am running Gutsy and yet it wants to upgrade lol [07:40] * DaSkreech ductapes intelikey [07:40] MaskedOne: Yeah known bug :) sorry about that [07:40] redshadowhero: upgrade had completed (one other minor hitch but a restart seemed to work ok) ... time for reboot :) ... cheers for the assist [07:41] well, the gui is there...are you suggesting that it's my fault for using the tools that have been devoloped for the purpose for which they should be expected to work? [07:41] * intelikey [07:41] * intelikey [07:41] charlie5: sure... I'm not quite done yet over here :/ [07:41] having a gui to shell the command-line is not rocket science [07:41] * DaSkreech unductapes intelikey [07:42] * intelikey OUCH! [07:42] Vous some people think terminal is the only way to go lol [07:42] redshadowhero: good luck, i hope it goes well [07:43] that doesn't mean that the gui should not be able to be considered reliable [07:43] No I agree the gui should be considered reliable. Just not as relieable as command line :) [07:43] ^5 [07:44] I can understand that some functions are best served from the command-line, like when they update critical components that the gui relies on [07:44] but scripts should be able to handle all of the messy stuff just fine [07:44] and for the most part they do [07:45] but that pretty much goes against the no need to be a developer and it works all the time you just wanted [07:45] GUI == pretty pictures wrapped around the commands that they hide [07:46] not everybody wants to, or can be developers [07:46] i'm not. [07:47] i'm blind as a bat when it comes to developing software, i can't C a thing. [07:47] hehe [07:48] intelikey: problem found [07:48] yodaz lets hear it ? [07:48] I'm not, but sometimes you just want to be able to turn the developer off and just be a user...why does everything always have to be a new challenge [07:48] I had a vga=791 in /boot/grub/menu.lst, #defoptions section [07:48] when I remove it, console looks fine, but ugly [07:49] is there a way to have a 1024x768 nice console ? [07:49] most users want it to be easy to use and work at a click of a button, myself included [07:49] yodaz wait . [07:49] did you set it, or is it truely a default for gutsy ? [07:49] It's been grand but this conversation should probably be in OT now [07:50] yodaz yes two ways the correct vga= or using svgatextmode [07:50] the topic is kubuntu, I thought that's what we were talking about [07:50] I find this quite funny, I like KDE on my desktop on the 19inch monitor but I can't stand it on my laptop.... [07:50] both require fbcon and thus i tend to not sujest them. [07:50] VousDeux: no kubuntu support [07:51] VousDeux: Normally this would be fine but we are at a high stress time it's best to let the guys see what problems are there so they can help [07:51] not a problem [07:51] Helvasca_: CRT ? [07:52] I'm going to reboot and see if anything blows up now [07:52] VousDeux: If you want to detail some of your over all views you can come back next week and thrash them out [07:52] DaSkreech: nah [07:52] better make it two weaks [07:52] Hmm that is strange :) [07:52] DaSkreech: I still find it funny, that hate it on my laptop, but like it on my Desktop. [07:52] intelikey: some arguments are [07:53] :) [07:53] tov hob [07:53] intelikey: but why it worked with feisty N [07:53] ? [07:54] new releases introduce new features and break existing ones [07:54] yodaz that i can't answer. i can tell you that several people have been having trubble with frame buffering [07:55] intelikey: ok, thx [07:55] new X ? [07:55] I will google for that, if I find, I'll tell you [07:55] new kernel [07:55] Ah [07:55] VousDeux: \o/ [07:56] well, nothing blew up per se, but I did see some weirdness with the updater pop up on the screen...I will try command-line dist-upgrade [07:56] a lot of people only recommend cli upgrade [07:57] VousDeux: ok Just note that there is a bug in adept where it always thinks there is a new version [07:57] flaccid: harder to break [07:57] you mean i'm not the maytag repair man flaccid [07:57] flaccid: On the flop side when it does break it breaks bad [07:57] lol === DaSkreech is now known as urgid === urgid is now known as turgid [07:57] well in theory a upgrade being 1 command, but its never graceful like that, well sometimes [07:58] DaSkreech: thanks for the heads-up, but I'm pretty sure the 5 packages it was trying to install were valid...I'll just see what happens === turgid is now known as DaSkreech [07:58] well a few commands but yeah [07:58] Jucato: ping [07:58] pong [07:58] kdelibs-data kdelibs4-dev kdelibs4c2a libgnome-desktop-2 libgnome-menu2 [07:58] at least in the cli you get to see why it borked [07:58] Jucato: any idea of a timeframe for kde4? [07:58] VousDeux: Yeah. Just letting you know that if it pops up again at the end then don't sweat too much [07:59] intelikey: \o/ I think it's that https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/129910 [07:59] xevious: http://techbase.kde.org [07:59] yeah if upgrading was graceful on linux/debian then gui would be suffice [07:59] intelikey: Not on my machine it just freezes [07:59] Jucato: thx [07:59] DaSkreech: noted...thanks again [07:59] hi all [07:59] xevious: december-y [07:59] DaSkreech really. no network time out nothing ? [07:59] quick question ... if I want to install 64 bit version for intel based processor can I use that amd 64 bit iso image as well ? [08:00] intelikey: No the new kernel hates me [08:00] So does strigi [08:00] * flaccid not seen strigi work at all yet lol [08:00] 64-bit PC (AMD64) alternate install CD [08:00] that is [08:00] deselby9: Yes intel took the AMD extensions [08:00] I'm not familiar with strigi, but I see a lot of complaints about it, so I just went ahead and removed it [08:01] DaSkreech ... thanks ... do you recommend 64 bit ... any problems with it ... eg do the codecs work ? [08:01] or at least I thought I did, but there it is [08:01] codecs yeah Java and flash not so great [08:01] !flash64 | deselby9 [08:01] deselby9: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava [08:02] VousDeux: Check how much CPU it's using up [08:02] looks like cli dist-upgrade completed no problem [08:02] DaSkreech ... oh ok ... in your opinion ... should I stick 32 bit version for a while or go for 64 bit [08:03] deselby9: Which ever you like. [08:03] ok .. thanks [08:03] deselby9: 3 things don't work so hot. [08:03] If that's enough to turn you off then ... ok that's cool with me :) [08:03] DaSkreech: do you mean strigi cpu consumption? [08:03] DaSkreech ... so java does not work ? [08:03] VousDeux: yes [08:04] deselby9: Look at the link I just showed you [08:04] DaSkreech ... I have to use eclipse quite a lot ... thats java [08:04] !info strigi [08:04] Package strigi does not exist in gutsy [08:04] ok at this stage of dev. whats the difference in downloading the beta and waiting for the actual release? i mean how much of a difference can there possibly be in this short amount of time? [08:04] !info strigidaemon [08:04] Package strigidaemon does not exist in gutsy [08:04] DaSkreech ... umm ... maybe 32 bit for now [08:04] DaSkreech: it does seem to be popping up near the top fairly frequently...that must be why so many complaints [08:04] surgy: The release is out :-P [08:04] Any particular reason why adept manager has the "version upgrade" icon available even though I just made a fresh gutsy install? [08:04] surgy stick with the beta [08:05] DaSkreech: what??????????????????? are you kidding? i thought it was slated for 25-oct ? [08:05] elliott__, know bug [08:05] elliott__: Bug. Sorry about that [08:05] known [08:05] ok [08:05] just checking [08:05] What version do I need? I want KDE4 [08:05] surgy: Read the topic [08:05] it's not a big deal [08:05] !kde4 | hyphenex [08:05] hyphenex: KDE 4 is the next major release of the K Desktop Environment. For more information see . The Release Schedule is available at http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.0_Release_Schedule. Beta 3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta3.php [08:05] nothing to worry about [08:05] have we encountered any problems? [08:06] surgy several [08:06] so if I wanted KDE4, then I can just download Kubuntu 7.10. but do I get the alternate ISO image, or the desktop ISO image? [08:06] surgy: It's a major upgrade Want to take a guess? :-) [08:06] hyphenex: You do know KDE4 is not out right ? [08:06] most common is the updater, second seems to be a frame buffering issue. then verious breaks and bugs. [08:07] yep, but the betas are out :) [08:07] okay, checking for clean boot again [08:07] has anyone ever seen the error "kernel.maps-protect" is an unknown key, when they try to boot [08:07] good morning :) [08:07] DaSkreech: so ummm very unstable and falling apart allready? [08:07] * dromer has a different boot-problem since the upgrade .. [08:07] posingaspopular using grub ? [08:08] well [08:08] this is me in kde4 [08:08] somehow my /home and other partition are 'busy' and can't be mounted .. so I'm stuck in tty's with no history :/ [08:08] posingaspopular that looks more like something you'd get out of lilo booting. [08:08] surgy: no not even close [08:08] hyphenex: In that case it doesn't matter [08:08] yea.. [08:08] strange, but it was the only error i had on boot [08:08] oh well [08:09] did the devs ever get around to working on the compatibility of 64 bit apps in kubuntu? i mean when i last tried kubuntu 64 it ran perfect but i had problems downloading and installing certain things like drivers and cedega and random other things becuase there wasnt a 64 bit version out yet. has this went away yet? [08:09] dromer: Can you mount the partition elsewhere? [08:09] dromer sudo -i for a root shell then fix it. [08:09] DaSkreech: the partitions are 'busy' so I'm unable to touch them it seems [08:09] surgy: Drivers? [08:09] so what's the difference between alternate and desktop? [08:09] intelikey: I should be able to mount them from the root-shell? [08:09] hahhahahaha, MY system is awesomly Fed up now this is what I got in the command line: Kaboom!!!!! whooops command-not-found has crashed [08:10] dromer should. [08:10] hyphenex: one is a live Cd one has LVM [08:10] I think everything is okay (or at least the stuff that does work) [08:10] DaSkreech: I don't follow [08:10] what's a LVM? [08:10] dromer you may need to modprobe support for them [08:10] hyphenex: One is a live cd one is a text install [08:10] intelikey: nope, I get something like: mount: /dev/hda5 is already mounted or /home busy [08:11] ahh, but if I install them, they kind of do the same thing, right? [08:11] is the desktop the live CD? [08:11] intelikey: ok, just modprobe /dev/hda5 or something? [08:11] dromer exact error please [08:11] hyphenex: yes [08:11] would anyone here know anything I might do to get the power manager to stop freakin' out and flopping back and forth saying my power has been plugged/unplugged? [08:11] intelikey: 'mount: /dev/hda5 is already mounted or /home busy' [08:12] dromer umount /dev/* [08:12] then try it. [08:12] intelikey: but I'm not sure which one is my /home .. I'm just trying sometnhing .. I can't check the filesize of either /dev/hda* with df [08:12] sometimes it will work okay for hours, but when it starts freakin' out, I have to kill the applet, and then I can't adjust the brightness [08:12] intelikey: same error [08:12] dromer cat /proc/partitions will display info on the avalable partitions [08:13] how about suspending and hibernating? Known bugs? [08:13] DaSkreech: well not so much drivers as drivers like oss working with my 32 bit emulators like snesx9x [08:13] intelikey: ok thnx, hda5 is my home then [08:13] or is it just my computer? [08:13] intelikey: but it's not umounted I guess, I still get the same error [08:13] dromer ok try this. mount /dev/hda5 /home -o remount,rw [08:14] or perhaps someone knows why sometimes the wlan will drop it's IP and will not reattach to the strong signal of my wireless network until I reboot? [08:14] no error means no error. [08:14] intelikey: hmm, have to specify a filesystem .. [08:14] are those kernel issues? [08:14] dromer yeah. module. modprobe ide-disk [08:14] dromer yeah. module. modprobe ide-core [08:15] dromer yeah. module. modprobe ide-detect [08:15] how about KDE4 ... that work already ? [08:15] VousDeux: Nope one is the powermanager one is networkmanager [08:15] I've submitted bug reports for both issues, but no response [08:15] deselby9: Nope Beta 3 [08:15] DaSkreech: will i run into anything like this now? i i go ahead with the 64 bit edition of kde? [08:15] dromer what fs type is that partition ? [08:15] intelikey: FATAL: Module ide_detect not found. [08:15] surgy: Maybe :) [08:15] is that Kubuntu support issue? [08:15] intelikey: ext3, both of them [08:15] VousDeux: Yup [08:16] dromer ok try the mount command again [08:16] whew [08:16] intelikey: nope, still need o specify the fs [08:16] DaSkreech: in your opinion should i wait to get the latest kubuntu? [08:16] modprobe ext3 [08:16] surgy: Yeah [08:16] so maybe I can expect a response to my bug reports someday? [08:16] rhow long? [08:16] DaSkreech: next weekend? [08:16] intelikey: no error on the modprobe, but same on the mount [08:16] surgy: Not for quality issues so much but the servers are still under stress [08:17] surgy: Good plan [08:17] VousDeux: [08:17] if you follow them up yeah [08:17] I submitted all of the stuff as requested by the KernelTeamBugPolicies [08:17] follow them up? [08:18] I gave as much detail as I knew how...if nobody asks any questions I'm not sure how to follow up [08:18] dromer lets see if i can cludge this into a script. for Q in /dev/hd* ;do mount $Q /home ;done [08:18] check back not follow up :) [08:18] there will be lots of errors. ignore them. ls /home. [08:18] VousDeux: If you find more info then append it to the same bug [08:19] intelikey: ok, lemme switch to another tty and do this ;) [08:19] hello [08:19] VousDeux: developers pay more attention to bugs that have a person behind it who wants to see it fixed [08:19] is the bug fixed yet -> version upgrade but there is no upgrade ? [08:19] I do check back, and I subscribed to the bug report I get an e-mail for every 'me too' post that gets added on [08:19] and what flaccid said :) [08:20] dromer alt+right arrow heh or alt+f[1-6] [08:20] B-Minus: no you'll see adept updated when it's patched [08:20] dang [08:20] * flaccid waits for his adsl2+ modem [08:20] ok tn x [08:20] has to be the left alt key. if you have two. [08:20] hi all [08:20] some of them have said the status is critical for months...what else do I need to do? [08:21] intelikey: ok wth .. I get an error reading: according to mtab, /dev/hda2 (the root dir!!) is already mounted on /home [08:21] ls /home confirms this [08:21] VousDeux: Is the bug assigned to someone? [08:21] some say the status is confirmed, but nothing has changed for several months [08:21] dromer ok mount [08:21] weird stuff [08:21] see if it lists anything on /home. [08:21] some of them are assigned, but no action that I can tell [08:21] dang [08:21] intelikey: it lists / in /home now [08:21] intelikey: and hda5 and hda6 are still considered busy [08:22] VousDeux: try and see if you can make contact with the person or team. Something drastic may have come up IRL which drops the priority of the bug [08:22] lazy unmount them? umount -l /dev/hda5 [08:22] * intelikey thinks...... [08:22] okay [08:23] flaccid they aren't mounted. [08:23] I have seen some that the status has said critical since edgy, but the problem still seems to persist [08:23] VousDeux: Thanks for being a great user :) [08:23] dromer ps aux | grep hda [08:23] I'm trying to be helpful, but I do get frustrated sometimes...sorry [08:24] how do i configure the colors of all the lists in my kde? they are all black and grey, i cant see letters [08:24] intelikey: nothing except my root-shell doing the command [08:24] crazy [08:24] it doesnt wanna work [08:24] VousDeux: I know but they are putting in free time to help. It's nice you can do that as well [08:24] Hello all. I can't update through adept manager, and it seems like my repositories are wrong. Thanks [08:24] I am in Gutsy by the way [08:25] tuco_: can i see your sources.list [08:25] dromer hmmm e2fsck /dev/hda6 [08:25] i cant seem to get the bluetooth gprs to connect [08:25] !final | tuco_ [08:25] Where can I post them to you Posing? [08:25] tuco_: If you installed a Tribe/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Gutsy. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [08:25] !paste [08:25] tuco_: or do you mean you have no repos ? [08:25] 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) [08:25] I wish I had more time, but between family, work, college, and my own hobbies it's hard to squeeze in much else [08:26] intelikey: device or resource busy [08:26] i'm starting to think mdadm [08:26] you didn't raid them by accident did you [08:26] here Posing: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41289/ [08:26] intelikey: 'Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?' [08:26] VousDeux: Bug reports are a good start. Making a good bug report helps matters since devs can't have all the hardware to test all scenarios [08:26] intelikey: I didn't raid anything, just upgraded and rebooted [08:27] dromer ok. i sujest booting a live CD and checking the filesystems on your hd [08:27] DaSkreech: I think I have made good bug reports...are there examples or other guidelines besides the KernelTeamBugPolicies? [08:27] 0.o that looks like a mess [08:27] intelikey: hmm, I think I have one of those ... is an old knoppix good enough?; ) [08:28] Jucato: how does apt verify repos? [08:28] dromer yes [08:28] I've spent hours digging through logs trying to gather good information with as much detail as possible [08:28] hello everybody [08:28] posingaspopular: md5sum? [08:28] !hi [08:28] Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! [08:28] VousDeux: I haven't seen yours but if you followed the guidelines you have done what you could [08:28] I haven't changed anything to it after installing Gutsy from scratch [08:28] dromer infact that better than an install cd of the same version that's borked [08:28] Jucato: look at tuco's pastebin [08:28] tuco_: [08:28] Yes [08:28] intelikey: ok, brb :) (don't have a 7.10 install-cd btw) [08:28] What happens when you try to update ? [08:29] it blocks at 26% [08:29] or sometimes adept crashes [08:29] uhm I have a question. How Can I access my NTFS partition from $Storage media$ cause it says>"hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000" ???? [08:29] I still have some old Knoppix kiosk machines in our cafeteria's that I customized about 4 or 5 years ago [08:29] look at this: http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc86/kDevious/snapshot10.png [08:30] so many people have that problem. gutys seems to suck :( [08:30] Well it's 2:30 [08:30] how do i change the list colors? [08:30] I have upgraded from feisty but things didn't go well after it finished, then I decided to reinstall from scratch [08:30] Time to hit bed before my Russian friends wake up [08:30] so nobody? :S [08:31] !ntfs [08:31] ntfs is To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For NTFS write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse [08:31] DaSkreech: are you in the central time zone, or the other side of the world [08:31] Other side :) [08:31] No EST [08:31] So what is the problem with my source list Posing? [08:32] gutsy-proposed? [08:33] ok it works. I made a directory: "sudo mkdir /mnt/win" then "sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt/win -o force,locale=en_EN.UTF-8"... But thanks :) [08:33] tuco_: i have no idea. im hoping Jucato knows becuase ive never seen this [08:33] tuco_: what seems to be the problem [08:33] konversation has a bug [08:33] I can't update through adept or sudo [08:34] whose doing these tests? [08:34] it get stucks at 26% and here is the link to my sources Jucato: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41289/ [08:34] Assid what tests :) [08:34] hhehe [08:34] why there is no mp3 encoding support with vlc ? [08:34] okay that but aint there [08:34] tuco_: looking at it... can you specify which repo it's stuck with? [08:34] what about this stupid ass bluetooth modem issue [08:34] it aint working [08:35] What do you mean Jucato? [08:35] redshadowhero: just a quick followup -> after completing ugrade, all seems working ok so far, despite the hiccups ... had to reinstall nvidia driver manually, but that is ok :) [08:35] tuco_: um wait... it get stucks where? what were you trying to do? [08:35] tuco_: uncomment the lines that it said it commented. Either your connection was not good during the install or the repo server had trouble at that time. [08:35] load adept, fletch update butthe bar at the bottom stays at 26% [08:35] intelikey: ok, I'm back :) [08:36] dromer that was fast [08:36] intelikey: so, what do I do now from the live-cd? [08:36] waylandbill: can you take over? pretty please? :) [08:36] yes [08:36] charlie5: well, I'm about to restart. I'll see where that gets me... [08:37] dromer cat /proc/partitions and don't freek out when they are all "sda" knoppix uses scsi emulation. [08:37] hehe [08:37] dromer e2fsck them [08:37] tuco_: kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list then.... remove the # from the lines under each "Line commented" line. [08:37] intelikey: no their all hda [08:38] wow, checking out the ubuntu forums and kubuntu forums, there seems to be alot going on [08:38] you said old ! [08:38] OK Jucato [08:38] let me try [08:38] tuco_: waylandbill will take over for me. half-busy [08:38] intelikey: hmm, /dev/hda5 is clean, hda6 is being checked for being mounted 22 times [08:39] Jucato: you might get the credit for it anyway. ;-) [08:39] you can use -f to force a check if you want. [08:39] tuco_: don't forget, it's waylandbill and posingaspopular who helped you :D [08:39] !helpersnack | waylandbill [08:39] waylandbill: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [08:39] hahaha [08:39] mmm.. tasty [08:39] hahaha is that new [08:40] amarok wont run. it does that icon half invisible spinny thing and then disappears [08:40] !opsnack | Jucato [08:40] Jucato: Chocolate! And Peanuts! [08:40] I am trying to put together a business plan where I will market laptop computers with Linux to small businesses, I am trying to learn how to go about getting quality support for the various driver concerns that will be associated with such an endeavour. I would not be opposed to sharing the proceeds from such a business if it would help promote the market as a whole. [08:40] can any1 help me? i have tried everything i can think of, [08:40] posingaspopular, thats happened to me before on gutsy-beta, i had to killall amarok-app then start again. [08:40] VousDeux, buy Dell, mission done. [08:41] VousDeux: there is a guy i know who does ubuntu migration and stuff like that. he knows his drivers [08:41] yuck [08:41] google anthony sosa and email him (mention my name) and he should respond [08:41] or you can stuff around and do what dell have already done and try to support your own set of hardware, your choice... [08:41] I want to market quality laptops...not the cheapest junk I can get my hands on === vellakd is now known as redshadowhero [08:41] still stuck at 24% guys! [08:42] Can somebody give me a list that works for UK? [08:42] posingaspopular: mention your nick? [08:42] intelikey: hmm, seems to be stuck after 'Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes' .. though the cpu seems to be working alot .. [08:42] VousDeux: eddie martinez from the chicago-ubuntu loco [08:43] cool, thanks! [08:43] ask him how we handles drivers and freenx and all sorts of other stuff that is too tech for me [08:43] dromer give it time. it takes a while to check a billion gigabites [08:44] intelikey: haha, ok .. I'll awit some more ;) (I'm not used to the fsck done from a live-cd .. prolly supposed to take longer that way too huh ..) [08:44] hmm dlinks are crap routers... === flaccid- is now known as flaccid [08:44] no just that a forced check takes more than just replaying the journal [08:45] posingaspopular: got it...thanks again! [08:45] Jucato? [08:45] i should be fixing the network interlace that i busted... [08:45] intelikey: it's checking hda6 now .. not being forced into it [08:46] intelikey: oh wait, it is being forced, just not with the -f flag ;) [08:46] Someone who a working source list more than welcome :-) [08:46] intelikey: hmm, /dev/hda5 is clean, hda6 is being checked for being mounted 22 times << fs forces full check. [08:46] with a working source sorry [08:47] intelikey: yes I get it :) [08:47] !source-o-matic [08:47] source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic [08:47] sorry i was scrolled up. [08:47] takes really really long though ... [08:48] intelikey: weird that hda5 is considered clean .. [08:50] I can't get it work flaccid [08:51] yeah you will need to mount each of them and see what is where, it sounds to me like one of three things happening, 1, and the most likely, mdadm (raid) 2, as about as likely, kernel is garbage. (copy error, maybe. durring install) 3, least likely upstart was doing a fsck on them but the process wasn't listed in the process table, so that about precludes that. [08:51] can somebody copy and paste a working list? [08:52] !doesntwork [08:52] Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. [08:54] I can't create a working source list from that link you sent [08:54] intelikey: hm, e2fsck on hda6 still not showing progress .. I'm taking a shower :P [08:54] bbl [08:54] and been having problems with adept [08:55] or 4 possably the obvious problem. hardware failure (cpu over heat) or (hd went south) [08:55] no offence to the aussies [08:56] hi, I've had gutsy since beta 2 I think and been upgrading regularly. Adept wanted to run an update manager to update to gutsy, even though I already have gutsy, whats the deal? [08:56] or (ram chip "went south" even) [08:56] hey i'm australian [08:56] lol [08:57] :) [08:57] good'on'ya then [08:57] my server is on the way to my house now, yay... [08:57] no worries mate [08:58] OK guess I will just reinstall feisty and stick with it. Cheers though. [08:58] * intelikey wonders about the origen of that expression.... (went south) [08:58] lol [09:00] gutsy stability, where the bloody hell are ya [09:00] lol [09:00] :p [09:00] it "went south" did it ? [09:01] I can't load the 'display & monitor' module. Annoys me. Known problem, no solution. [09:01] Please someone...a decent source list for Gutsy!? [09:02] hm,... i actually wanted to reinstall gutsy over feisty but I get a list of errors of this kind http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41292/ [09:02] what could be the problem? [09:02] cat /etc/apt/sources.list | sed 's/dapper/gutsy/g' | pastebin [09:03] http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/40497 << results [09:03] source-o-matic doesn't work? [09:03] tuco_ that was for you ^ [09:03] It doesn't for me [09:03] Hold on Intel [09:03] http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/40497 << results [09:04] what do I type please? [09:04] that ^ in your browser [09:04] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41293/ [09:05] * intelikey wonders where that "went south".... [09:05] Sorry I am confused Intel. You wanted my source list right? [09:06] no you wanted mine [09:06] ;/ [09:06] Yes... [09:07] !doesntwork [09:07] Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. [09:07] is there only 4 lines Intel? [09:07] flaccid i'm thinking so too [09:07] tuco_ yes [09:07] if you can paste from source-o-matic, you probably can't paste from anywhere [09:07] could anyone point towards a gutsy RC to gutsy official problems related page? [09:07] can/can't [09:08] This is going nowhere. I have never seen only 4 lines in the source list or I am missing something? [09:08] wow im getting really sick of gutsy crashing on me all the time [09:09] tuco_ when you get tired of whining about it, try it. [09:09] whoa, and I thought I had problems...at least it doesn't crash for me too [09:09] posingaspopular: any exit errors to report? [09:10] I am not Whining at all. I have your 4 lines in a blank source page and it does nothing sorry. [09:10] what is nothing? [09:10] please explain [09:10] describe what you do, and what happens [09:10] VousDeux: no, basically X went crazy and i had to reboot. happened when i killed amarok [09:11] posingaspopular: is it always a similar scenario? [09:11] yea it's always some sort of DM going crazy isue and then a shutfown [09:11] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41293/ that is my source list right. Basically I can't fletch updates in adept. [09:11] hey guys... [09:11] I've sucessfully upgragrinng through the alpha cycle of gutsy. I upgraded to kubuntu 7.10 offical a few days ago. When I now try to "get updates" in adept, I see the "versionupgrade" button. When I enter it, it fails after I press ok for the packages not anymore supported. It says no need to upgrade and it cancels and change back. [09:11] posingaspopular: are you using stuff like compiz? [09:11] any ideas? [09:12] nope. nothinglike that. [09:12] tuco_, what does the command return.. you still have not cited anything [09:12] flaccid it's all commented out. [09:12] all but his cdrom [09:12] is it [09:12] The bar says : waiting for headers 66% [09:12] yesd [09:12] true [09:12] thus the suggestion for source-o-matic or uncomment it out. sorry im on bad connection atm [09:12] posingaspopular: can you describe 'going crazy'? [09:13] and it stays there indefinitely [09:13] hi .. i'm running gutsy. unlike feisty, i don't get an OSD when i use the volume keys on my laptop to control the volume [09:13] tuco_, use source-o-matic and replace the sources.list then update [09:14] Hi, is it a known bug that Adept gives a message that a new distribution is available, and after that gives the message that no updates are available? I'm running Ubuntu Gutsy with kubuntu-desktop [09:14] i belive so Minnozz [09:14] Minnozz: yes, known [09:14] ok =) [09:15] When I press create sources list it doesn't do anything Flaccid! [09:15] i was running amarok. it played on song. stopped for 5 minutes. wouldn't come out of the task bar. i tried to kill it with the konsole. it died, and then pidgin froze i tried to katapult to pidgin and the background behind the katapult icon turned into a pidgin IM. moved to a new desktop, and then the katapult from the old dekstop showed up on the new one. and then everythign froze and i had to reboot [09:15] fun [09:15] ok tuco_ at least i know the problem now. which browser is this in ? [09:15] Have tried numerous times. [09:15] Minnozz: those types of gremlins usually go away within a day [09:15] Konqueror [09:15] hadaratou [09:16] tuco_, if i pastebin you a recommended sources.list can you replace your sources.list with it? [09:16] yes [09:16] I'm trying to update from a cd but it doesnt start when I insert the cd [09:16] tuco_, country you are in atm? [09:16] UK [09:17] i386 i assume [09:17] posingaspopular: it sounds like the graphics resources are having issues...hmmm [09:17] Yes Flaccid [09:17] VousDeux: my hd has been slowly dying as well [09:17] posingaspopular: what have you tried? [09:17] that's a 'knownbug' [09:17] tuco_ here i even cleaned yours up. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/40499 [09:18] I'm trying to update from a cd but it doesnt start when I insert the cd, I might add that my system is quite screwed up after various attempts at updating online [09:18] intelikey: ok, it's done .. what shall I try now? [09:18] i have like 3 paritions. theyve slowly all been giving me kernel panics [09:18] dromer mount them and see if what you expect to be there is there. [09:19] ahhh...so you could have some corruption related to disk i/o maybe? [09:19] oh btw, whan you mentioned about mdadm sounds familiar somehow, I didn't know hat it was but it (mdadm) had some problems during the upgrade [09:19] tuco_, please use this one: http://pastebin.ca/743256 . do a sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade once replaced [09:19] posingaspopular gutsy ?

[09:20] dromer yes [09:20] but I fear my system wont boot at all if I restart :P [09:20] posingaspopular: does it work okay if you run from live cd for awhile?

[09:23] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41294/ [09:24] intelikey: can't I chroot into it and install a new kernel or something? [09:24] tuco_, are you going to do what i suggested or what?

[09:25] dromer if you had a "good" linux-image-generic.deb package you could chroot / dpkg -i *.deb thus installing a kernel to boot into. [09:25] tuco_, you were meant to replace your /etc/apt/sources.list with the text of the pastebin, then run that command. [09:25] what you did is not what i said unfortunately [09:26] This is what I did! I mean I may be a beginner but not a dumbo! [09:26] intelikey: hmmm, atm I just have my borked upgrade and this knoppix-cd ;) [09:26] dromer fast inet ? [09:26] !packages [09:26] You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search ", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! [09:26] tuco_, you go to the pastebin i linked you. you copy the text. you do an alt+f2 and run kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list and then you do ctrl+a and then you paste the text from pastebin, save, then run the upgrade command i advised [09:27] intelikey: yes, surfnet.nl :) (should be 100/100 [09:27] http://packages.ubuntu.com [09:29] This is what I did Flaccid! Three times now and I am stuck at 0% now! [09:29] intelikey: ok, I have space on hda6, so I can download it to there [09:29] Again and again. [09:29] How do you read Iso files as if it were from a cd? [09:29] ndrea: you mount them [09:29] !mount [09:29] Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Kubuntu, go to System Settings -> Advanced Tab -> Disks & Filesystem. See also !fstab and !DiskMounter [09:29] thanks [09:29] eh, n/m [09:30] dromer has to be accessable from within the chroot i.e. if that's not the root fs mount the root fs and then mount that within it. [09:30] I've sucessfully upgraded through the whole alpha cycle of gutsy. I finally upgraded to gutsy offical a few days ago. When I now try to "get updates" in adept, I see the "versionupgrade" button. When I enter it, it fails after I press ok for the packages not anymore supported. It says no need to upgrade and it cancels and change back. [09:30] If I reboot and boot from the live cd and update that way do I have format my hdd or can I repair my system that way instead? [09:31] OK I am just going back to Feisty for now. Will upgrade eventually in 6 months time. Thanks for the effort mate. [09:31] RytmenPinnen: that depends on how you have partitioned it [09:31] only one partition [09:31] am I screwed? :P [09:31] RytmenPinnen: I don't believe there is a simple repair function, but I could be mistaken [09:32] sometimes i wonder why i waste my time [09:32] oh shit its linux.... [09:32] what about the fiesty disk? I have thatone too [09:32] intelikey: oh ok .. well .. how do I go about this then? I mount the borked OS then chroot into it and download te right kernel? [09:32] RytmenPinnen officially, no. techencally yes you can. but it may not be easy [09:32] aha [09:33] You didn't. I didn't have issues at all With Feisty, since I have upgraded to Gutsy things have been worse than ever before I make a choice to go back to something that works for me Ok. No big deal! [09:33] Anyway thanks for your help. [09:34] dromer something like this. mount /dev/hda5 /mnt ;mount /dev/hda6 /mnt /home then dl it to /mnt/home and chroot /mnt dpkg -i /home/*.deb [09:34] hmmm...I've heard several people make the comparison to Feisty...maybe I don't have any of those problems because I never had Feisty in the first place. [09:34] and yes that's verbatum except the gui parts. [09:34] intelikey: the borked OS in /dev/hda2 I think [09:34] is* [09:34] sounds like there is still much to be said for a clean install [09:35] then s/hda5/hda2/g [09:36] I think the only OS I have ever seen be able to upgrade without issues is MPE [09:37] sorry, what is MPE? [09:38] dromer ooops /dev/hda6 /mnt /home <<< should be >>>> /dev/hda6 /mnt/home [09:38] this keyboard is getting tired of me. [09:38] intelikey: ok, but /dev/hda5 is my old /home ;) [09:38] it's a unix-based os that runs on proprietary systems [09:38] ok [09:39] * intelikey [09:39] intelikey: making some extra space on /dev/hda5 .. only had <1gb left [09:39] ok, time for the mounting .. [09:39] but the kernel is only about a 70m dl [09:40] and i still consider that bloated. [09:40] intelikey: haha ok, wel, anyway, shouldn't I better mount the root to something like /mnt/root ? because there's all kinds of stuff in /mnt/ already .. I suppose it doesn't really matter .. [09:40] http://docs.hp.com/en/mpeixall.html [09:41] all kinds of stuff in /mnt ??? something mounted already ? [09:41] anyone else having issues with kmail? [09:42] ah kmail that's refreshing. it's not adept kernel or amarok related for a change [09:42] lol [09:42] intelikey: auto cdrom floppy hda1 hda2 hda5 hda6 << these where pre-made, I moented hda5 and hda6 to these folders later .. I now added a root/ and mounted hda2 to it .. and I mounted hda5 in this root/home/ [09:42] *chuckle* [09:42] intelikey: ok, now to find the kernel ... [09:42] ciao atutti [09:43] dromer it's called linux-image*** [09:43] http://packages.ubuntu.com [09:44] yes I'm searching right now :) [09:44] hi, is the "Find best Server" button in adept (repository settings menu) of any use yet? So far it just freezes the program but that could be due to the current heavy load on all the mirrors as well, maybe. [09:44] oh and my system try is acting up too, amarok's icon doens't show up, kmplayer's one(and most of the others) randomly appear all over the screen... note I've got compiz running [09:44] linux-image-2.6.22-14-386 << this one I guess .. [09:44] dromer should work === trev_ is now known as trev__ [09:45] dromer you didn't install k8 did you ?

[09:46] just wondering if there was going to be problems... k [09:46] jussi01 boot time or user login ?

[09:47] !autostart [09:47] To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. The package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory.

I started this system with Ubuntu Dapper ;) ) [10:02] im not that smart with the console, is there a way to let "rm" answer "y" automatically to all questions, it is going to ask me about every write-protected file im deleting, and these are hundreds! [10:02] dromer i'm just about out of time here. i sure hope that does it for you..... [10:02] ey, small and general question: why isn't there a Kubuntu Studio ?

[10:08] charlie5: I thought that is what Envy would do for me, but even it seems to be broken. I guess I'll try the manual way again, I just remember last time it was a bit tricky.

[10:14] rytmen im in ubuntu and it was sooo easy I have a dual boot pc [10:14] RytmenPinnen: if you have free space, you could create a new partion and then copy your /home to it [10:15] ah, well, I dont have that :D [10:15] you only need the swap 2gb and \=home should be 8 with no extra room [10:15] hmm, I guess my files are gonna have to go then, ohwell, nothing important there really [10:15] RytmenPinnen: it's not hard, but it does take a little planning [10:15] hello [10:15] RytmenPinnen: can you put any on cd? or a jump drive?

[10:24] miir: you might be better off trying to search online for that error [10:24] VousDeux: Damn, ubuntu should focus more on KDE and less on Gnome [10:26] hmm, Cant seem to find the system:/media folder in the terminal === adminn is now known as Avt3kk [10:26] my Advanced Desktop Effects Settings if full of stuff....too much stuff if you asked me [10:26] sudo mount hda1 just gives me a "cant find system:/sdösjdglksdjglkdjfg/..........." error [10:27] try sudo mount /dev/hda1 [10:27] same thing :( mount: can't find /dev/hda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [10:28] should be just /media, not system:/media [10:28] err...perhaps the system: designation has something to do with the live cd [10:28] naon /etc/fstab and see ify ou can see the drive there [10:28] nano* [10:29] fdoving: i dont want people to see who are valid users in my system on the logon screen [10:29] huh, that's weird...I've always just been able to click an icon that appeared on the desktop to access the local disk === KennethP_ is now known as KennethP [10:29] there is something there, but im not sure I understand it all [10:30] "/dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0 , tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nosuid,nodev 0 0 and unionfs / unionfs rw 0 0" [10:31] hello [10:31] use "disk and filesystems" from system settings [10:31] mount them from there [10:31] some question: after a reboot [10:31] franx: you can install theme manager for kdm, and use a theme that does not have a user list [10:31] the usb ports of my kubuntu 7.04 seems to be deactiveted [10:31] i've just installed virtualbox [10:32] anybody who can help me? [10:32] anything i can test? [10:32] its there [10:32] chrissi, just a guess: try adding " usb-handoff " as kernel boot option. [10:33] check your hardware to see if its being recognized too [10:33] lshw [10:33] hey, is it just me or isnt cut/paste working with dolphin? [10:33] br [10:33] b [10:35] i switched konq back to default becuase dolphin was a POS [10:35] if i upgrade to gutsy, will i have the option to make konqueror my file browser? i dont think im going to get along with this dolphin! [10:35] Hamra: i upgraded and it's till konqi [10:35] i think dolphin is for clean installs, but im not sure [10:35] Hamra: yes you can make konqueror the default very easily [10:35] my web cam has been detected wrongly? [10:35] Anyone have a good howto for fixing PHP5 + Apache2 + MySQL? [10:35] kaminix: what is wrong with it? [10:36] posingaspopular: i upgraded and for me its dolphin [10:36] i mean it says i got a camera i dont,.. and it does not work [10:36] thank you [10:36] dystopianray: Ah, sorry, might've mixed some Swedish grammar into that sentence. Set it all up I mean. [10:36] jonasp: nah its def. konqi [10:36] anyone here installed kubuntu 7.10 on d610? [10:37] i'll fight you over this too ;p [10:37] well, for me it isnt. and i upgraded ;) [10:37] is there anyway to back up the ndiswrapper stuff so i don't need to recompile it again? [10:37] !apache [10:37] LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [10:37] !pastebin [10:37] 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) [10:37] maybe you still hava a konqueror button in your taskbar [10:38] that will start konqueror ofc [10:38] grul: thanks. :) [10:38] franx: edit /etc/default/kdm.d/20_kubuntu_default_settings - make the second line read: THEME="/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/kubuntu-no-userlist" [10:38] that lshw output looks like some interesting reading :) [10:38] jonasp: whats the diff.? [10:39] because you're right [10:39] grul: No howto for Gutsy there though, same as on feisty? [10:39] is there a way to back up the ndiswrapper stuff so i don't need to recompile it? [10:39] i don't know, i suppose it can't be that different [10:39] kaminix: should be almost exactly the same === martin_ is now known as spozen [10:40] kaminix: it's basically just installing a handful of packages and you're ready to go [10:40] Okay, got it. :) Thanks. :) [10:40] kubuntu is upgradable to 2.6.22 now? with kde 4? [10:40] kreib: gutsy uses linux 2.6.22 and has kde 4 available [10:40] fdoving: heyt thanks for that [10:41] posingaspopular: i use the "Quick File Browser" applet. this one launches dolphin as default now - before it was dolphin. if you have a simple konqueror button all it does is launch the konqueror application. [10:41] i see, not possible to upgrade from 704 ? [10:41] Oh, by the way, why is Firefox 3 in the repos? [10:41] kreib: yes you most certainly can upgrade [10:41] kaminix: why not? [10:41] posingaspopular: so even if dolphin is the default application for opening folders you will use konqueror most of the time. [10:41] dystopianray: Because it's not out yet? [10:41] ok, great. how? [10:41] kaminix: neither is kde4 [10:41] VousDeux: I fixed it by doing sudo mkdir /media/sda1 and then sudo mount dev/hda1 /media/hda1 [10:42] not sure if its too wise but I can acces it now :P [10:42] how can i install *.deb package in 7.10 ? i have such information about libc6 and ldconfig ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41306/ :/ [10:42] dystopianray: But KDE4 is in Beta, Firefox three is in alpha? [10:42] guess no one knows [10:42] eh [10:42] wich is better SELinux or AppArmor ? [10:42] kaminix: alpha/beat it's all largely arbitrary [10:42] RytmenPinnen: oh, haha...I should have known we needed to supply a destination for the mount...just adds to the fact that I should be sleeping [10:43] When is Firefox 3 due to release anyway? [10:43] jonasp: i reject your claim because it is not in line with proliteriat interests [10:43] winchesterPAT: SELinux is probably technically superior, but apparmour is still quite good [10:43] ? [10:43] haha :D [10:43] i mean last two lines are unusual :] [10:43] does any of them have GUI configurator ? [10:44] winchesterPAT: probably not, i don't know, there are guis for setting ACLs [10:44] in kubuntu, how to upgrade to 2.6.22 ? [10:45] kreib: you have to upgrade to gutsy [10:45] yes, I mean gutsy, how is ti done [10:45] why arnet there any huis for it ? [10:45] Do I need php5 and php4? Isn't 5 enough? [10:45] kaminix: php5 is enough [10:45] can i back up ndiswrapper stuff so i don't need to compile it again? [10:45] which version of kde is gutsy using? [10:46] TheGateKeeper: 3.5.8 [10:46] TheGateKeeper: 3.5.8 and has 4.0beta3 in the repos [10:46] ok thanks guys [10:46] Jucato: ping?

[10:52] guillermo: which version of the runtime do you want? [10:52] !java [10:52] 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.

[10:54] posingaspopular: how can i set that the adept_updater starts at systemstartautomaticly ? [10:54] I think this update in sync witt ubuntu standard is a bad idea [10:55] it says sun-java 6 bin [10:55] the logs say that one of my repositories is untrusted ?

[10:56] can anybody tell me why? and if there is sth. like a blur-filter which one xould use to make the result look smoother? or am i doing it wrong at all? [10:56] dystopianray installing...

[10:58] whenever i move something or open a window, i hear a silent but hearable sound from my computer. Why is that? Is it normal? [10:58] guillermo: this is entirely independant of adept, do it now [10:58] first I could only get in TTY, now I could start is with sudo, so I'm in gnome now :/ [10:58] lovre: noise over the pci bus that is affecting your sound card [10:58] franx: stillhere?

[10:59] "Edit PHP Configuration to Work With MYSQL (Ubuntu Dapper)" <--- Will I need this in Gutsy too? [11:00] kaminix: if i recall correctly it should be setup for mysql by default [11:01] VousDeux: you still here? I've freed up 20 gigs now, shall I know make a partition of that and copy stuff there, Or can I simply install gutsy on that partition and keep the other partion, [11:01] kaminix: you just need to install the php5-mysql package [11:01] fit4lfe: maybe #ubuntu can help me, im not sure anyone in here hasa definative answer [11:01] can i download the packages needed for the upgrade seperatly, put them somewhere, and when they are all on my hard drive, use them for the upgrade? i dont think i can donload 670 mb at one time! [11:01] it works [11:01] thanks a lot [11:01] dystopianray: Thanks :) [11:03] Hamra: ive heard the question before [11:03] dont remmeber the answer [11:03] lo.. trying to update to 7.10 from 7.04 and on the modifying the software channels it gets stuck on 38/59 file fetching ? any ideas [11:03] who asked about apparmor? [11:04] any idea why, after the upgrade, root thinks that 2 of my partitions (of which one is /home) are busy and can't be mounted? [11:04] I'm back! Installed the Nvidia driver manually and am getting the same issue. Resultion is now okay and graphics card is listed correctly but the screen redraws so SLOWLY! [11:04] posingaspopular trying that channel too [11:04] because of it I can't boot into x, I can however get into TTY and start X as root .. but ofcourse I don't want this .. [11:04] Hamra: I think there is an explanation on the upgrade page [11:05] im digging through the support pages, lets hope something helps, thanks for trying anyway [11:05] Anyone got any idea on this? Just to maximize Konversation the window takes about 5 seconds to draw itself [11:05] Hamra: I do that with my BSD boxes :) [11:06] cptn_spoon: do you have 3d acceleration? [11:06] Firefox seems to work fine though, but the KMenu has this flickering thing going on [11:06] I have a GeForce 4 and I've just installed the nvidia drivers from scratch [11:06] lo.. trying to update to 7.10 from 7.04 and on the modifying the software channels it gets stuck on 38/59 file fetching ? any ideas [11:07] fit4lfe: yea i honestly dont know [11:07] i'll download the alternate CD, i can pause it's download aytime with kget, right? [11:07] Hamra: yeah kget should support resusuming [11:07] this sucks [11:08] fit4lfe: thats a package right? [11:08] thanks [11:08] Hi, I'm getting again an error I had two days ago, everytime I close dolphin... [11:08] search ubuntu package manager [11:08] Unable to save bookmarks in /home/andrea/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml. Reported error was: Permission denied. [11:08] posingaspopular: is the repo outdated [11:08] yeah using update-manager [11:09] MySQL is faster that SQLite, right? Using MySQL for Amarok will yield better performance, right? [11:09] I remember it was solved just with one command on the Konsole... but I don't remeber which was. Could someone help me? [11:09] no sqlite is faster [11:09] Anyone got any ideas? I've tried installing the nvidia package a few times, tried using Envy and now installed them straight from the nvidia site with their .run package but something is definitely up. It all worked fine with feisty. [11:09] So I should use sqlite instead? [11:10] kaminix: leave amarok to the default [11:10] Okay. :) [11:10] kaminix: if you want to do db stuff with php then use mysql or postgresql [11:10] fit4lfe: search through packages.ubuntu.com and see fi you can find any relevent date [11:10] ndrea: chmod [11:11] or can you just delete the repo althoughter and tell gusty to stop paying it attention? [11:11] I installed MySQL for wiki, just thought I'd get a bonus performance boost using the same database for Amarok. :) [11:12] kaminix: any performance boost would only matter if you had an enormous collection and were constantly running queries over it [11:12] kaminix: once you have a playlist and music is playing, mysql does nothing for you [11:12] Oh... didn't know that. [11:12] hello.anyone for help me configuring my microphone please? [11:13] kaminix: the different databases are only for managing the amarok collection, nothing to do with playback or anything else [11:13] looks like it might be a bug in update-manager [11:13] I see. But does it not record playdata in the database all the time dystopianray? [11:13] but i am also using nxserver right now and that might be part of the problem [11:13] fit4lfe: well, my adept is crashing left, right and center so I wouldn't be surprised [11:14] just you get it to upgrade at leaset [11:14] least [11:14] gah, my desktop is now so fucked-up :( [11:14] slipperyjim: could you give me the whole command please? [11:14] you might have to do a xserver configure for video for gusty [11:14] umm... [11:15] kaminix: yes, but one bit of data every 3-4 minutes is so insignificant [11:15] ndrea: sudo [11:15] kaminix: the main reason you'd use mysql is to have multiple machines sharing the same collection or to query the collection from php or some other programming language [11:16] dystopianray: Oh, I see. I thought I'd remember older Amarok versions telling my MySQL is faster but not as easy to setup. [11:16] could some go to disk and file settings and check what settings there should be for the tmp partioin, mine dissappeared [11:16] hello. i got probs with OOo when i try to open some odt file it launches document recovery. any clues?

It loads (fairly quickly) but then spends a few minutes filtering when I dont need it to [11:37] Gutsy for the win. [11:37] ksivaji, I've been using it for a week :) [11:37] RichardBH, untick all the filter boxes.

[11:42] stdin- the upgrader hasnt crashed yet - i still have my fingers crossed:P [11:43] wesley: depends on wheter or not you have a seperate /home partition [11:43] if I had $5 for every time I've ran ps -ef | grep this morning [11:43] i dont have a seperate /home partition in kubuntu [11:43] well it should install [11:43] but there just wont be lots of room [11:43] wesley: 5GB should be enough but won't leave much room for anything else [11:43] !kubuntu [11:44] Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE [11:44] no its seems full now [11:44] sdin- ah no, frozen on the last file again [11:44] ...and closed [11:44] btw, after a few times restarting X kmail is working again [11:45] I bet it's some race condition problem [11:47] <[Bart]> hi, maybe a stupid question (I'm debian user, not ubunut/kubuntu user), if you download the latest 7.10 Kubuntu release, does it contain a 'live cd'? [11:47] [Bart]: yes it does [11:47] <[Bart]> dystopianray : perfect! thanks for the confirmation [11:48] btw, have anyone every fixed the issue with the menu bar system tray, that some icon doesn't get "locked" into it, but appear somewhere else on the desktop? [11:48] [Bart]: make sure you get the 'desktop' cd [11:48] <[Bart]> I'll give it to my parents then :) anybody who runs this from a pentium I? if so, does it run smoothly? [11:48] Hey... i just upgraded to gutsy and firefox/swiftfox both have a really ugly black border around all the toolbars [11:48] [Bart]: you'll need at least 384MB of ram just to run the livecd [11:48] so many people here! [11:49] any chinese here? [11:49] no [11:49] !cn [11:49] For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [11:49] <[Bart]> dystopianray : oeps ..that's a problem. only 128m :) [11:49] thanks [11:49] try it. [11:49] im norwegian [11:49] [Bart]: then you'll need the altnerate installer cd, which isn't a livecd [11:49] #ubuntu-cn [11:49] is there any way i can get firefox to look nice again? [11:49] i'm just update to ubuntu 7.10 [11:50] [Bart]: or get an external drive with a swap parittion hooked up to get it up past 384MB of total memory [11:50] it looks very good [11:50] dystopianray: is that different to the 7.04 one? I ran that on 320 ok [11:50] hi [11:50] RichardBH: gutsy is supposed to use more memory than fiesty for some reason [11:50] ah, ok [11:50] <[Bart]> dystopianray: ok, Then I'll just install it on the pc over there. Indeed I can add a lot of swap space..but not good for the performance of course [11:50] anyone knows after upgrading to 7.1 [11:50] why does thing no longer compile ? [11:50] it seems to be running ok on said 320mb/300mhz processor :P [11:50] ./configures cant find any headers.. [11:51] MaDiNfO_: things like what? [11:51] checking cdda_interface.h usability... no [11:51] checking cdda_interface.h presence... no [11:51] checking for cdda_interface.h... no [11:51] for example [11:52] and they are there [11:52] MaDiNfO_: "sudo apt-get install build-essential" [11:52] although that may befrom a -dev package.. [11:52] build-essential is already the newest version. [11:52] I'm having trouble with xgl and kde. when I use kde with xgl in multiple system, It lways happened... meanwhile it works fine with gnome. keyboard. I want my keyboard in spanish, but despite I have kcontrol configure to spanish, my keyboard layout is still messed up. in gnome it works fine, how can I copy keyboard layout from gnome to kde? [11:53] MaDiNfO_: what are you compiling? [11:53] kaffeine [11:53] * E_mE is about to upgrae his laptop to Gutsy with KDE 4 :D [11:53] may I ask why? [11:54] because i need it :) [11:54] MaDiNfO_: why can't you use the kaffeine with gutsy? it is the latest version [11:54] MaDiNfO_: but its in the repositories [11:54] yes it is 0.8.5 [11:54] i need SVN [11:54] :) [11:54] MaDiNfO_: why? [11:54] <[Bart]> kde4? doesn't look very nice I find.. I like my 3.5 installation.. with compiz-fusion [11:54] i make some help coding it [11:54] :) === ubuntu is now known as RytmenPinnen [11:56] djdarkman: ping [11:56] MaDiNfO_: code up teletext support! [11:56] djdarkman: I added the option to change the units [11:56] dystopianray: :) [11:56] someday [11:56] Hi again, new question: Can I make my /home folder a separate partition? [11:56] RytmenPinnen: yes [11:56] if i am using "-ovc lavc" and "vcodec=xvid" with mencoder, is there any possibility to use xvid-specific options like "cartoon"? [11:56] RytmenPinnen: yes [11:56] and i recomend you do [11:56] so if you hose the os, you can still recover your data [11:56] dystopianray: 1st u need to help me out [11:56] posingaspopular: [11:56] and you can mount /home to any distro [11:57] can I do it form a live session [11:57] .... i havent touched a live cd in months [11:57] MaDiNfO_: you're probably missing required -dev packages [11:57] i want to so yes, but i dont want to get hit either [11:57] how do i check if X has randr enabled? [11:57] dystopianray: no i am not [11:57] MaDiNfO_: try: sudo apt-get build-dep kaffeine [11:57] RytmenPinnen: yeah [11:58] posingaspopular: ah k, Well, the thing is the update tool trashed my system so now I'm sitting on a live session trying to figure out how to save my files [11:58] jabba80: use -xvidencopts [11:58] dystopianray: libstreamer [11:58] yea thats why /home is critical ;0 [11:58] not needed but ok [11:58] my gutsy install is still all over the place too [11:58] :P [11:59] dystopianray: the same [11:59] :) [11:59] posingaspopular: Dear the new command is also not working, and I dont know withiout gui how to go in console and type, I think I will reinstall once, if it works fine, or windows vista is the ultimate [12:00] RytmenPinnen: I only suggest this as a last resort, but it worked for me - From the live CD, mount the hard drive if it isn't already, delete everything in it except /home, and rename /home to a folder that's not in the default filesystem, then install from the alternate cd, but do *not* format the drive [12:00] MaDiNfO_: you probably have it configured differently to how ubuntu does [12:00] hmm, I see I guess that Could work [12:00] sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart isn't launching the graphics for you? [12:01] MaDiNfO_: so it has different build deps than ubuntu's version [12:01] No! [12:01] erm [12:01] contrast83: or you could just shrink the partition and reinstall [12:01] how can i fix this ? [12:01] RytmenPinnen: you have to use the alternate disc to install though. the live cd won't let you install to an unclean target [12:01] really?! [12:01] i have no idea how to fix your issue [12:01] ubuntu: you did replace the ? mark with kdm right? [12:01] oh [12:01] *k [12:02] witch is the alternate disc? [12:02] I even tried recivery mode typed the command their but failed to get the results [12:02] nosrednaekim: that should work too. unfortunately, when i was in his situation, i couldn't get qparted or gparted to work, so i had to do the above. [12:02] stdin: even if i use "-ovc lavc" and not "-ovc xvid"? Isn't that interfering? [12:02] i fail [12:02] * nosrednaekim winders if anyone has heard of cfdisk [12:02] No [12:02] not i [12:03] thought "-xvidencopts" was only for "-ovc xvid" [12:03] upgrade to gutsy seems to hang at configuring ttf-dejavu, anyone seen the same ? [12:03] MaDiNfO_: try installing libcdparanoia0-dev [12:03] nosrednaekim: you nee help with cfdisk? [12:04] dystopianray: libcdparanoia0-dev is already the newest version. [12:04] ubuntu: did you run "/etc/init.d/kdm start"? [12:04] anyway how can i check include dir in system ? [12:04] jabba80: it may be, not sure. but it's the only way I see to configure the codec options [12:04] k [12:04] MaDiNfO_: can you configure it so it does not compile the cd ripping feature? [12:04] dystopianray: nah... certain others were saying that they couldn't get graprted working...so they had to resort to extreme things ;) [12:04] nosrednaekim: I have to replace the question mark with 'K'? [12:04] mencoder at least doesn't complain [12:04] nosrednaekim: what do you mean with this? "or you could just shrink the partition and reinstall" [12:05] dystopianray: yes i can but the problem is that configure can find anything in /usr/include [12:05] even dvb [12:05] or so [12:05] nosrednaekim: so that is the right command sure? [12:05] MaDiNfO_: hrrm well i'm not sure [12:05] RytmenPinnen: erase everything but your /home on that partition, shrink it, and then make a new partition for / [12:05] ubuntu: small k, but yes [12:05] nosrednaekim: and that is "doable" fromt the live cd? [12:05] Than I need not reinstall [12:06] question : why are the firefox buttons like "google search" etc.. different than windows .. they look very old [12:06] RytmenPinnen: certainly [12:06] sounds good to me [12:06] stdin: with -sws 7 and scaling it does a nice result [12:06] (even without cartoon) :D [12:06] nice :) [12:06] B-Minus: its the same with firefox on windows [12:06] After booting text lines running this and this comes one below another, and finaly the curser blinks without moving down, here I have to type the command right? [12:07] if it says something like "root@ubuntu$" yes [12:07] nosrednaekim: why does ubuto say to /etc/init/?dm restart? [12:07] No it doesn,t, how do I go there [12:08] ubuntu: becasue there is also GDM, which comes with ubuntu. [12:08] In recovery mode what you mentioned i could see that [12:09] Shall I go in recovery mode and type that command [12:09] ubuntu: ok, in non-recovery mode, press "ctrl+alt+f2" and log in from there [12:09] how is the apple-like taskbar called ? can i install it ? [12:10] apple-panel [12:10] I will have to restart now as I am on live cd, see you back all [12:10] B-Minus: kooldock? [12:10] ubuntu: ah... don't forget to run that program with sudo [12:11] hmmz [12:11] maybe [12:11] i thought compiz was already default installed with kubuntu 7.10 ? [12:11] but i dont see it at the install [12:11] nope [12:11] B-Minus: Its not the full Compiz [12:11] !compiz | B-Minus [12:11] B-Minus: 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 === arun_ is now known as arunkale [12:12] B-Minus: nope, you have to manually install it (but its not hard) [12:12] tnx [12:12] Ubuntu comes with a stripped down desktop effects but Kubuntu doesnt [12:12] you are all veryu helpfull [12:12] can you have a KDE 4 and KDE 3.5 instance installed in kubuntu and then use KDE 4 when you want but always default to KDE 3.5? [12:13] E_mE: yes, the same way you can have kde and gnome [12:13] thank you [12:13] i was trying to see samba shares, when it said "The process for the smb protocol died unexpectedly.", any ideas? [12:13] nosrednaekim: K, I'm deleting files now, where do I shrink /home? [12:13] E_mE: certainly [12:13] RytmenPinnen: qtparted [12:14] should I wait for all files to be deleted before running that? [12:14] RytmenPinnen: yeah :) [12:14] :) [12:14] has anyone here been able to run KDE 4 Beta 3 as a full session? Mine crashes back to KDM about half way through the splash screen [12:15] contrast83: yes, [12:15] contrast83: you need "kde4case-dev" [12:15] how can i find out if the X server has randr enabled? i can't find anything in the man pages [12:16] Have they made the Kde$ origional artwork yet? [12:16] 4* [12:16] nosrednaekim: oh ok. i was going strictly by what it said on kubuntu.org. i'll try installing that, thanks. [12:16] voicu: what driver are you using? [12:16] mga [12:16] voicu: and what version of randr are you takling about? [12:16] voicu: just type 'xrandr' on the terminal [12:17] contrast83: whoops "kde4base-dev" [12:17] nosrednaekim: so since i don't have that installed (just kde-workspace), it's normal that i can run kde4 stuff over my kde 3 session, but not kde 4 as a full session? [12:17] nosrednaekim: i figured :-) [12:17] contrast83: and that is on kubuntu.org;) [12:17] dystopianray: i need randr for rotating the screen [12:17] contrast83: yeah [12:17] voicu: run xrandr and it will tell you if it can rotate [12:17] i typed xrandr, a bunch of resolutions appeared [12:17] nope, i don't think so [12:17] ohh. wow. how'd i miss that. [12:17] voicu: does it have a 'rotations possible' line? [12:18] dystopianray: i quit [12:18] :1 [12:18] :\ [12:18] no [12:18] contrast83: the instructions were updated to say "Install kdebase-workspace and kde4base-dev." [12:18] voicu: pastebin the output [12:18] MaDiNfO_: try asking for help in #ubuntu [12:18] stdin: oh ok. i don't feel so dumb now. thanks [12:19] dystopianray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41322/ [12:20] voicu: it looks like you do not have rotation support [12:20] yeah... [12:20] can i enable it? [12:20] voicu: probably not unless you write a patch against the video driver [12:21] hmm... nice [12:21] isn't there a software only solution? [12:21] no idea [12:21] well thanks anyway [12:21] ... back to square 1 [12:25] hello [12:25] i have a question [12:25] dude, just ask [12:25] i have a SATA Drive with exisiting ext3 File System and files on it [12:25] ^^ [12:26] on this drive, i want to make a new kubuntu-installation [12:26] can i do it without loosing some of the files? [12:26] I just upgraded to gutsy on my desktop. But unlike my laptop it didn't install apparmor, stringi, etc. However the splash-screen and artwork is all gutys [12:26] feierfoox: do you have only one partition? [12:26] yes [12:27] feierfoox: i think you can install it without formatting but you should resize it and make a separate partition for the system [12:27] hmmm,the drive is totaly full [12:27] only some gigs left [12:28] :( [12:28] feierfoox: do you want to install linux again or something else? [12:28] somezthing else [12:28] feierfoox: delete some of those illegal movies then ;) [12:28] i have an old dapper-session on my old IDE drive [12:28] the sata drive is my second [12:28] :/ [12:29] feierfoox: what os do you want to install? if it can work with ext3 you have no chance but to create another partition [12:29] *can't [12:29] ok [12:29] kubuntu of course [12:29] can't you install over the old ide drive? [12:30] there is my /home/ [12:30] i don't want to make experiements [12:30] ah [12:30] dunno, put some of the stuff on dvds, make some space and create a new partition [12:31] then you won't have problems again if you want to reinstall [12:31] 5-10gb should be enough [12:31] hmmm [12:31] that idea sound good [12:32] which kde tool is recommented for creating partitions? [12:32] on gnome i used gPart [12:32] qtparted [12:32] qtparted? does the live CD contains it [12:32] yeah, that [12:33] yeah [12:33] (?) [12:33] because, my running system can't mount my target drive [12:33] ok [12:33] should 8 GB be enough? [12:34] should be [12:34] a fresh install is about 2-3gb [12:34] if you don't need many programs at once it's more than enough [12:34] Im not familiar with instant messaging services AT ALL .... if I choose AIM e.g will I be able to send messages to MSN or Jabber users and vice versa? [12:34] soon: no [12:35] They're different protocols and servers, soon [12:35] so I need to establish a whole range of accounts then ? [12:35] soon: that's like saying: if I speak german will I still be able to talk to the french? [12:35] soon: that's right [12:35] okay - well, as I said - Ive never used any IM services b4 [12:35] soon: kopete supports all those protocols (and more) [12:35] intel gfx are not supported by compiz ? [12:35] soon: jabber can simplify things through the use of transports [12:36] i remember a year ago i installed beryl and it worked [12:36] B-Minus: intel graphics have the best support for compiz [12:36] hm [12:36] so jabber will 'convert' to other formats? [12:36] i only have a intel 915GM card [12:36] can qtparted resize partitions without destroing data? [12:36] soon: no, you use multiple accounts with kopete [12:36] B-Minus: I have a 915GM card, compiz works perfectly [12:36] voicu: sure [12:37] well the option is grayed out [12:37] okay - multiple accounts it is then :-( [12:37] soon: jabber can be setup so that when you login to your jabber account it logs into msn, aim, yahoo etc and lets you talk to people on those networks [12:37] soon: but it still needs you to have an account on each network [12:37] dystopianray: strange i must be doing something wrong then [12:37] okay - thanks [12:37] !comiz [12:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about comiz - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [12:37] !compiz [12:37] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default.

I'll get to reading some man pages. Everything I've seen says to use Adept in the gui. Thanks :) [16:06] Kr4t05: what's it output to console? [16:06] osh_: it mean it has been uninstalled, but not purged (config files in /etc still remain) [16:07] installationrl: I'm not sure how to run the upgrade tool via console [16:07] hi al [16:07] Jucato: Thanks. I did look in apt and aptitude man-files but didn't see anything about it there. [16:07] sudo apt-get upgrade? [16:07] Jucato: Just to show that I'm not the lazy bastard I appear to be. ;-) [16:07] Kr4t05: sudo apt-get upgrade? [16:07] installationrl: I can start up adept, but when I click "Version Upgrade" adept closes out and starts up the upgrader. [16:08] Kr4t05: That's funny, I don't really know how people do it using a gooey. :) [16:08] Jucato: hey it's LiL-JoN. [16:08] AT0M1CB0MB3R: I've been told that it's easy to break things with apt-get? [16:08] AT0M1CB0MB3R: yo [16:08] I used to upgrade with APT in previous releases, but I wanted to see how much better the GUI upgrade would go. [16:08] Kr4t05: not really never broke for me and you can always fix them [16:08] hello; I just upgraded to gutsy and now my KDE windows are not repainting (and are thus unusable). anyone have debugging suggestions? [16:09] well you need to be producing details of a problem before you know what's gone wrong :) [16:09] but you knew that :D [16:09] * osh_ is a little annoyed that gutsy broke vmware. I need vmware for work on monday. :-/ [16:09] i'm not able to upgrading kubuntu to version 7.10 [16:09] Hmm I don't seem to have a kde4 directory under /usr/lib [16:09] It's my only windows. :-( [16:09] feisty broke vmware too, tbf. [16:09] Jucato: can you help me? with everytime i start up with super karamba i have to reload all of my themes (and thats alot lol) [16:09] AT0M1CB0MB3R: not really an SK guy... [16:09] osh_: You probably need to recompile your VMware drivers? That happens with any kernel upgrade. [16:10] Jucato: ok [16:10] osh_: which version of vmware ? [16:10] s/drivers/modules [16:10] Jucato: should i just reinstall im on the live cd right now [16:10] AT0M1CB0MB3R: but you will most probably have to put a link to each SK theme in ~/.kde/Autostart [16:10] AT0M1CB0MB3R: um.. why reinstall? just for superkaramba? [16:10] pfft, it's not as if they would build on feisty w/o intervention. [16:10] Kr4t05: Yeah. Except that I removed it to reinstall it (as per a suggestion on ubuntu-forums) and now I can't get it back. :-/ [16:10] how do I find a file? I need to find startkde [16:10] h3sp4wn: vmware server [16:11] flats: locate file [16:11] locate filename [16:11] osh_: You ever try VirtualBox? [16:11] hi! I have a ubuntu installation but want to try KDE. In synaptic, I see there is a metapackage called 'kde' at version 5:xx. Isn't the latest kde version only at 4? [16:11] Jucato: not just for super karamba a bunch of stuff i customized my kubuntu too much and now nothing works right [16:11] Kr4t05: nope. what is it? [16:11] virtualbox lacks stuff [16:11] osh_: If you have the option, you could try that. [16:11] for instance, its USB support sucks. [16:11] Jucato: Thanks for that KDM resolution fix on UF by the way .. just encountered it. :) [16:11] installationrl: Newer versions fix that. [16:11] osh_: I am using workstation its working fine here [16:11] Jucato: after this install i don't think im going to mess with it any more besides get it the way i like it to look then im done [16:11] osh_: (custom 2.6.23 kernel) [16:12] QwertyM: np [16:12] installationrl: I heard a review for the latest version on the Linux Action Show [16:12] !info vmware-package [16:12] Package vmware-package does not exist in gutsy [16:12] Kr4t05: Forgive me if I remain skeptical on that one til I see it working :) [16:12] I will give it a spin though when I get time [16:12] osh_: If you I would build debian's vmware package (makes deb's for all vmware stuff) [16:12] installationrl: Of course. :) [16:12] how do I "start a new session in KDM with KDE 4." [16:12] Problem is that I have a vmware image with windows and all work-related programs on it, so unless virtualbox plays vmware images I relly need vmware. [16:13] osh_: Then if it does stop working you can use vmware-any-any easily [16:13] you can get the vmware player if you already have the vmx file [16:13] mweichert: just install the kubuntu-desktop package; the '5' is a kubuntu-specific version number [16:13] flats: the instructions are on the release announcement page [16:13] i'm not able to upgrading kubuntu to version 7.10 [16:13] wwhat's the diff between the server and the player then? [16:13] When I try to enter "enter support for complex characters" in KDEs language/regional settings it is not checked when I press OK and look again. [16:13] jesse_ hmm, okay - though I'm very interested in trying kde 4 [16:13] jucato: I did all that, the last line is start a new session in KDM with KDE 4. [16:14] How do I start a new kde session? restart my computer? [16:14] flats: ctrl-alt-backspace [16:14] flats: kills X. [16:14] mauri_ : what happened? [16:14] * flats is scared [16:14] afriad nothing will come back [16:15] is there any option to downgrade my adept frm 7.10 back to my 7.04? [16:15] flats: that's why I didn't recommend that you be so daring to try out KDE 4 *beta* 3 [16:15] OK here goes. brb ...I Hope...... [16:15] khumba-yo: adept-manager say me that a new 7.10 kubuntu version is available [16:15] flats: don't worry though, the way Kubuntu made the packages, nothing should break [16:15] hehe but then where's the fun [16:15] flats: just logout [16:15] khumba-yo: i clicked yes but [16:15] my upgrade break ... [16:15] I tried to download the old vmware-server deb but it doesn't install the dependancies. [16:15] i was trying to upgrade to 7.10, and i updated from adept manager. but i didnt get any wizards, and i dont know if i upgraded or not. How do i check? [16:15] khumba-yo: after same minutes it says:Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/Release Unable to find expected entry commercial/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?) [16:15] now adept or apt-get wont work [16:15] mweichert : not sure if you have to kave kubuntu-desktop in order to try kde4. kubuntu.org has instructions on trying kde4 which may or may not require kubuntu-desktop [16:16] khumba-yo : they renamed the commercial repository to 'partner' [16:16] jesse_ any idea what the release date is for kde4? [16:16] i was trying to upgrade to 7.10, and i updated from adept manager. but i didnt get any wizards, and i dont know if i upgraded or not. How do i check? [16:16] mauri_ - is your /etc/apt/sources.list modified to gutsy instead of feisty? === frank__ is now known as flats [16:16] mweichert : Real Soon Now. maybe for 8.04? [16:17] lovre: did you follow the instructions step by step? [16:17] so Jucatodo you think i should reinstall whats your opinion im on the format page and i dont know if i should do it [16:17] lovre: and don't repeat your question every minute [16:17] well still KDE 3.5.8 [16:17] Jucato: ok, sorry, and yes i did [16:17] mweichert: december. don't remember the exact date. [16:17] I'm still not using upgrades for OSes that aren't Debian [16:17] AT0M1CB0MB3R: not really sure if you should. not knowing what state your system is in [16:17] and I mean straight, plain debian [16:17] khumba-yo: i dont know [16:17] hmmmm [16:17] my kaffeine aint playing divx in gutsy, how come ? [16:17] hm [16:18] flats: you will have to choose the KDE 4 from the Session menu in the login screen [16:18] oh darn, thanks jucato [16:18] I've never found in-place upgrades worth the hassle in any other os. [16:18] My irssi had somehow gotten stuck in the backlog at yesterday 22:00 [16:18] brb again [16:18] Jucato: its not that bad but i really dont know how to fix any thing [16:18] mauri_ - then u should check it out or even change it - then upgrade your system in the console... ;) [16:18] took me three minutes to scroll it to the present :P [16:18] salve, c'e' in linea qualche italiano? [16:18] Jucato: but this week im getting a bash command handbook [16:18] !it | armadillo [16:18] armadillo: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! [16:19] mauri_ - just replace all "feisty" with "gutsy" in sources.list [16:19] AT0M1CB0MB3R: good luck :) [16:19] AT0M1CB0MB3R: have you considered getting the interweb? :) [16:19] AT0M1CB0MB3R: if you really want to learn, I'd suggest you try to learn how to fix what's broken first [16:19] khumba-yo: sorry, i dont remember where to find souce list file [16:19] Jucato: ok, now im getting an error [16:19] mauri_: /etc/apt/sources.list [16:19] Jucato: so i shouldn't reinstall? [16:19] mauri_ - ^^ [16:20] osh_: thanks i've just find it [16:20] AT0M1CB0MB3R: my opinion. yes. learn first before reinstall... unless you want the easy way out :) [16:20] Jucato: i think your right im gonna restart and try to fix my comp [16:20] mauri_ - dont forget to sudo ... ;) [16:20] brb [16:20] Hmm, no vmware server and no vmware player in gutsy. :-( === saied is now known as Saied [16:20] khumba-yo: they are already gutsy [16:21] osh_: oh, that's true. well there is virtualbox though [16:21] mauri_ - good, then you can log off from your gui and log in on the console, lets say ctrl-alt-F2 [16:22] LjL: has the problem w/ virtualbox been fixed though? [16:22] .. then sudo apt-get update === frank__ is now known as flats [16:22] I mean in the repos [16:22] Jucato: which problem? [16:22] ..then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [16:22] LjL: it needs kernel modules [16:22] well KDE4 is runningbut no icons or programs [16:22] which wasn't packaged earlier [16:22] anyone else have that problem? [16:22] flats: like I said, it's not exactly something for a newbie to get into [16:22] Jucato: ah, i haven't tried, but i thought they'd get that set up for final. i do distinctly recall getting new modules from apt... let me see [16:23] flats: and not everyone is trying to run a *BETA* release [16:23] Jucato: it should be fine [16:23] mauri_ - this should work quite good but it lasts maybe 1 or 2 hours... [16:23] Oh I thought it was somewhat complete. Beta usually means it's ready except for bugs [16:23] LjL: ah yes I see the packages now :) [16:23] this is nowhere close [16:23] flats: not really. you should read the release announcements first :) [16:23] flats: right-click on the desktop -> Log Out [16:23] is there a theme for kde similar to metacity's "human" theme? [16:24] i'm kinda partial to the brown colors [16:24] flats: you can actually also right-click on the desktop -> Run command [16:24] then run an app [16:24] thats how I got konversation open [16:24] LjL: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3577870 That one sais that downloading -> installing should pick up dependancies, but it won't. not for me. [16:24] so there's still a ways to go with KDE4 then, I thought it was usable, my bad [16:25] ToHellWithGA: http://www.openwarriors.iblog.co.za/2007/10/07/ubuntu-human-kde-colour-scheme/ [16:25] cheers [16:25] osh_, i suspect the canonical gutsy repositories aren't currently in very good order. [16:25] hey Jucato :] [16:25] is medibuntu still useful to have in /etc/apt/sources.list.d? [16:25] flats: it is a bit, but you only most probably installed only the very base apps, and also it's not end-user usable yet [16:25] yo AT0M1CB0MB3R [16:26] anybody having major display probs radeon xpress 200 on gutsy? top and bottome title bars take up my WHOLE screen. [16:26] !kde4 [16:26] KDE 4 is the next major release of the K Desktop Environment. For more information see . The Release Schedule is available at http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.0_Release_Schedule. Beta 3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta3.php [16:26] LjL: I should probably report a bug on launchpad.net... [16:26] flats: read up: http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0-beta3.php [16:26] osh_: probably. do check out virtualbox in the meanwhile, perhaps it works well enough for you. === saied is now known as Saied [16:27] LjL: But it won't play vmware images, right? So my MS-Office, MS-Project and all that is gone until vmware starts working for me again? [16:27] Jucato: I'm going to try to fix all of my problems. Hopefully it won't be that hard. So to start how about the ~./kde/autostart? Where do I put that? [16:27] mauri_ - still there? [16:27] osh_: no, it won't, though i can't exclude there are converters... [16:27] AT0M1CB0MB3R: it's ~/.kde/Autostart/ it's already there. [16:28] !autostart | AT0M1CB0MB3R [16:28] AT0M1CB0MB3R: To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. The package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory. [16:28] khumba-yo: yes....LjL suggested me to remove canonical line into source file [16:28] khumba-yo: it now works [16:28] mauri_ - 8D [16:28] also get vga not support h48 v89 on boot. my screen goes black until the login screen but its so huge i cant see anything i just have to type my name and pass (cant see the box though) [16:29] jesse__: they won't switch to kde4 for an lts release [16:29] Jucato: do i have to install "kcontrol-autostart" cause i just alt f2'ed it and it didn't work [16:29] khumba-yo: thanks again also tu you [16:29] is it default that k/ubuntu does not allow X from localhost? [16:29] AT0M1CB0MB3R: if you want to. you can always just manually add things to the ~/.kde/Autostart folder [16:30] LjL: I'll just see if I can get vmware fixed. Worst case I'll just have to downgrade back to feisty and use that. [16:30] mauri_ - np, ur welcome *lol* [16:30] jucato: thanks for the help. [16:30] !ati [16:30] To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [16:30] so you have to a xhost +localhost first [16:30] Jucato: ok :] [16:30] brb [16:30] and how to make xhost +localhost permanant?! [16:30] do intel i810 video cards use a restricted driver? [16:31] Well then, KDE 4 Beta 3. Tell me what cool stuff I can do. :D [16:31] jeroenvrp: don't use xhost [16:31] AT0M1CB0MB3R: http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdeutils/superkaramba/questionsanswersandtips.html#id2546132 [16:31] Has any update fixed failure to detect some 8 series nvidia cards? [16:31] Jucato: i can't find kde autostart [16:31] h3sp4wn: what should I use instead? [16:31] thanks Jucato [16:31] AT0M1CB0MB3R: in Konqueror, type the location ~/.kde/Autostart [16:32] AT0M1CB0MB3R: ~ is shorthand for your home directory (/home/username) [16:32] jeroenvrp: su user_running_x -c "xauth extract - $DISPLAY" | xauth merge - [16:32] Hi! I just upraded to Gutsy on my HP Pvilion dv1000 laptop and I am having some trouble with the graphics (integrated intel centrino chipset). Ever since the upgrade the graphics seem to be extremly slow and I can't get my desktop extended to my external screen with xinerama anymore. Any ideas? [16:32] AT0M1CB0MB3R: .kde is a hidden folder in your home directory [16:32] * installationrl (is in the process of moving terabytes of data, so barely has enough bandwidth for irc let alone updates) [16:33] Jucato: how do i enable session support in kcontrol [16:33] h3sp4wn: [16:33] xauth: error in locking authority file /home/jeroen/.Xauthority [16:33] xauth: (argv):1: unable to read any entries from file "(stdin)" [16:33] so is 8600/8800 detection by restricted-manager ok after updates? [16:33] on feisty? [16:33] Y a t'il des french ici? [16:33] !fr | jerem [16:33] jerem: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. [16:33] osh_: downgrading is not quite supported [16:33] AT0M1CB0MB3R: it should be enabled by default. in System Settings ->Advanced -> Session Manager [16:33] jeroenvrp: or you can use - export XAUTHORITY=/home/ AT0M1CB0MB3R: it should be set to "Restore from previous session" [16:34] whats a good place to look for linux/ubuntu apps? [16:34] look in the repos. [16:34] Tucows seems limited these days [16:34] Flats: Add/Remove Programs or Adept Manager [16:34] Flats: Kubuntu has around 20,000 packages (apps + libraries) [16:34] well I mean organized with descriptions [16:34] Flats: packages.ubuntu.com is also nice for finding the thousands of packages [16:34] yes of course they have descriptions [16:34] there we go. [16:34] h3sp4wn: should I restart X [16:35] ctw - have you checked the system preferences for proprietary drivers? [16:35] ifg you want to go further afield or find inspiration, look in linux format, sourceforge and happypenguin.org :) [16:35] jeroenvrp: No should just work - try it [16:35] Flats: there we go? packages.ubuntu.com is just an online service to view what you can view in Adept Manager [16:35] doesnt work [16:35] Jucato: it is but it still doesnt restore all of my themes :[ [16:35] i need driver for polaroid pdc 3030 for kubuntu, someone can help me? [16:35] xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :0 [16:35] Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server [16:35] AT0M1CB0MB3R: ". For some themes you will also need to right mouse button click and reload the theme at least once after running it so that the config file will get written to your home directory." [16:36] * ScorpKing waves.. [16:36] yes but it organizes it nice and neat [16:36] Jucato: lol i just read that haha [16:36] let me try that [16:37] Jucato: how do i check if it got written into the folder [16:37] Flats: have you even taken a look at Add/Remove Programs? it's not organized? it's not neat? [16:37] AT0M1CB0MB3R: um... I forgot :) [16:37] lemme see. [16:37] add/remove programs seems exactly what you'd want tbh. [16:37] if i do lshw i get --network UNCLAIMED (RTL-8139). eth0 is not there. how do i setup the card? [16:37] Jucato : Add/Remove programs is fairly slow (IMHO) and there's a lot to be said for a web browser's "find in page" [16:37] Jucato: dang ill try figuring it out [16:38] Woo! [16:38] jesse__: true. well whatever.. [16:38] re Ihr .... :-) [16:38] whatever floats his boat... [16:38] AT0M1CB0MB3R: I think it's ~/.superkaramba [16:38] actually it is pretty good. The good thing about it is I can uninstall the junk I didn't even know was installed [16:38] jeroenvrp: works fine here with just - sudo -i and then export XAUTHORITY=/home/samw/.Xauthority && export DISPLAY=:0.0 [16:39] Flats: careful with what you categorize as "junk" [16:39] ah sudo -i [16:39] jeroenvrp: read about the "mit magic cookie" [16:39] just because you don't know what it is, doesn't mean it's not needed [16:39] so, if I 'sudo lshw' and the results do not show hardware I expected to see, how would I go about correcting that? [16:39] khumba-yo: sorry, are you able to help me to configure my webcam [16:39] i got a question if i need to install codecs once again after upgrade to gutsy? [16:39] anybody use radeon xpress 200 graphics? [16:39] VousDeux: plain lshw doesn't work? [16:40] drama1981: No noone does (not even the people who use them) [16:40] h3sp4wn: still doesnt work [16:40] mauri_ - sorry, not sure, whats wrong ? [16:40] Jucato: what works better? [16:40] VousDeux: I don't think you need sudo for lshw [16:40] Jucato: oh, that was a question... [16:40] jeroenvrp: PEBCAK ( I have just tested it and it works 100% with gutsy and xterm ) [16:40] Jucato: they're all written in there [16:40] Jucato: it warns me if I don't use sudo [16:40] hm... [16:40] weird [16:40] anyone can tell me how to enable compiz fusion in 7.10? [16:41] Jucato: Uses some stuff in /proc that cannot be read by user [16:41] when i run kcontrol things look normal. when i run VirtualBox things look HUGE and unrefined. do y'all have any ideas on that? http://thestonepedo.dyndns.org/images/VirtualBox_Is_Big.jpg [16:41] hello all! can anyone tell me how to configure konqueror as my default file manager? [16:41] I really need some help here... I have no idea how to get my computer past "ISOLINUX 3.36 Debian-2007-08-30" I want a fresh install of kubuntu but I can't boot =( [16:41] "WARNING: you should run this program as super-user." [16:41] instead of dolphin [16:41] VousDeux: I see... [16:41] !dolphin | juan [16:41] juan: dolphin is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror → Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin. [16:42] Jucato: but there isnt anything in my autostart folder [16:42] AT0M1CB0MB3R: that's ok [16:42] session management will handle it automtically [16:42] AT0M1CB0MB3R: the Autostart folder is only for things you put in manually [16:43] ok [16:43] khumba-yo: it simple.....kubuntu didn't recognixe my webcam [16:43] Jucato: do you ever sleep? [16:43] claydoh: of course! in an hour or so :) [16:43] Azzco : have you confirmed that the CD works in another computer? [16:43] after 2 bottles :) [16:43] h3sp4wn: I dont think its a PEBCAK [16:44] Jucato: only 2? that's quick. :P [16:44] How do I get Kubuntu to auto-login. I am the only one using this computer. [16:44] Jucato: cool you always seem to be here when I am awakew, and we are on opposite sides of the planet :) [16:44] anyone can tell me how to access network folderes? [16:44] it's pebkac [16:44] claydoh: hehe :) [16:44] why does few things like OOo and video waching doesnt work after upgrade to gutsy? [16:44] ScorpKing: yeah, I'm not into drinking much [16:44] whois Jucato [16:45] hehe [16:45] VousDeux: Problem Exists Between Chair And Keyboard [16:45] lol [16:45] no, keyboard and chair [16:45] :) [16:45] mauri_ - sorry, I never used a webcam :/ [16:45] just yanking your chain [16:45] anyhow xhost +localhost is working [16:45] khumba-yo: ok thanks however [16:45] is this the support channel for kubuntu or what? [16:46] as opposed to? [16:46] OK I'm a trillian (windows) user for various IM clients. Without having to go thru 30 different clients, any recommendations? Pidgin seems decent but what seems to be the most popular? [16:46] :) [16:46] stephen: it is [16:46] Flats: kopete [16:46] Flats: kopete [16:46] Flats: in here?

[16:46] popular seems to be just an opinion, unless you'll like to do a poll... [16:46] stephen: what kind of network folders [16:46] you also have SIM [16:46] zZZthats kinda what I hoped for [16:47] if that is still alive [16:47] i have folders shared from my windows computer [16:47] !best | Flats [16:47] Flats: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors. [16:47] Kopete crashes when logging to MSN [16:47] i want to access from kubuntu' [16:47] stephen: google for smb4k [16:47] before i make an duplicate on bugs launchpad web site how do i move or add it into gusty list of bugs [16:47] xehnida: that's just a new bug. the fix is already available [16:47] or just install it with sudo aptitude install smb4k [16:48] thanks buz [16:48] how do i know if my pc has bluetooth inside it? [16:48] most do not [16:48] MarkC: [16:48] stephen: you may also try smb://IPofWindows/sharename but smb4k is more comfortable [16:48] leexgx: ? [16:48] MarkC: most do not have blue tooth only some laptops do [16:48] okie [16:49] MarkC: try hcitool scan [16:49] if it doesnt work you either dont have BT or its turned off [16:49] oh, thanks buz [16:50] anyone had proböems with kaffeine in gutsy ? [16:50] boubbin: works splendidly for me [16:50] i install the "fix" for Kopete, it still crashes [16:50] khumba-yo: I don't need a proprietary driver for graphics [16:50] khumba-yo: it runs on the i810 driver [16:51] buz for me, it just loads and never opens. no error msg's when i run from terminal [16:51] mhh thats weird [16:51] I recently lost all keyboard functions on my laptop when logged into kde. even on the external board [16:51] ctw - sry, just a guess... ;) [16:51] I can type in kdm but in kde it is a no go [16:52] khumba-yo: thanks anyway :) [16:52] that's a good point...I should probably enable the bluetooth and the touch pad before running lshw [16:52] should I try regenerating the xorg file? [16:52] ccherrett: if you're feeling adventureous sure [16:52] but make backup of current one first [16:53] it does sound like a kde issue though [16:53] hey everyone, will it be a problem if i install new gutsy packages from adept? the upgrade installation stucked at 0%, so i closed it [16:53] hi folks, i've installed the new gutsyGibbon release, and have problems with the startup, it takes 5 min. from grub to the login screen, what can it be? the pc is not really slow 2,2Ghz. Can somebody help please? [16:53] shogun_: i would not mix feisty and gutsy packages [16:53] buz: hmm any thoughts on what to try? [16:53] sameone can help me to configure my webcam? [16:53] ccherrett: are your windows actually loading/drawing correctly? [16:53] will the rtl8150 and rtl8187 modules work on a RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ card? can someone with that card check for me what they have loaded? [16:53] jesse__: yes [16:53] stealth_: take a look at dmesg [16:54] stealth_: do you get a usplash (the kubuntu logo with a progress bar?_ [16:54] ScorpKing: will do [16:54] jesse__: I guess I could load flux to see if it is X or KDE [16:54] ccherrett : damn, then you've got a different problem than me :P [16:54] :) [16:54] * ccherrett goes to load flux [16:54] no there are no progress bar and no logo or something.... [16:55] ccherrett: eh..... whats the problem? [16:55] bye @ll [16:55] nosrednaekim: keyboard stopped working in kde on the laptop [16:56] nosrednaekim: external as well but only in kde [16:56] ccherrett : try the "failsafe" session type as well [16:56] stealth_: ah. This is actually a common problem it gutsy. A bug that's being worked on. When the usplash doesn't show, then your computer goes into suspend before the KDM shows up. But there's a pretty easy fix [16:56] ccherrett: odd [16:56] jesse__: failsafe works fine [16:56] sameone can help me to configure my webcam? [16:56] jesse__: even the login scren works === darkox_ is now known as darkox [16:57] ccherrett : what kind of laptop is it? [16:57] how to install drivers for nvidia geforce mx5200?

[16:58] darkox: use the restricted-manager-kde [16:58] stealth_: sry - trying to find the forum post with the instructions that fixed mine! brb [16:58] jesse__: toshiba satellite [16:58] i'm using xubuntu 7.04 an a box and it's not on the machine [16:59] ScorpKing: you can't modprobe it? [16:59] hi [16:59] ccherrett : I am sadly out of ideas; did your upgrade go smoothly? [16:59] Is there anybody who uses bluetooth ? [16:59] stealth_: ah! Got it, alright, ready? [17:00] if i want to learn about creating simple programs that access the internet, where should i start? i'd like to use C/C++ [17:00] Jucato: your the best that fixed my problem [17:00] I have issue with pairing my mobile with PC [17:00] nosrednaekim: i did. lshw say the card is unclaimed. i only have rtl8150 and rtl8187 modules on that box. [17:00] AT0M1CB0MB3R: great! [17:00] yeah thanx ready... [17:00] enabling the bluetooth and the touch pad didn't seem to make a difference for lshw...they are still not shown [17:00] ccherrett: try making a new user. [17:00] AT0M1CB0MB3R: kde docs are great too! [17:00] AT0M1CB0MB3R: so is google :D [17:00] nosrednaekim: root can type [17:00] nosrednaekim: so it is a corruption in the .kde dir [17:00] ccherrett: you have root login enabled for KDE? [17:00] I will backup and snuff it' [17:00] ? [17:00] Jucato: but what about themes that i download from super karamba [17:00] ccherrett: back up your email and wipe it :) [17:00] where i can find kbluepin ? [17:00] any of you having trouble logging onto msn using kopete using 7.10? [17:00] how do i add those to there? Jucato [17:01] for example ? [17:01] nosrednaekim: you can startx in failsafe [17:01] in which pacage ? [17:01] stealth_: check /etc/usplash.conf and make sure the x value is 1024 and the y value is 768 [17:01] ccherrett: oh.. thats not root [17:01] * ccherrett goes on a snuffing fest! [17:01] kopete fix = kdelibs4c2a_3.5.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb [17:01] AT0M1CB0MB3R: same way, you just run them once then right-click to close them, run them again, and leave them open when you logout [17:01] nosrednaekim: it says root [17:01] nobody uses bluetooth here ?? [17:01] yeah i will check... [17:01] ccherrett : I had moved my .kde directory out of the way, and still couldn't type [17:01] ccherrett: really? oh ok >:( [17:02] !find kbluepin [17:02] any other dot directories that might be causing the problem? [17:02] Package/file kbluepin does not exist in gutsy [17:02] Jucato: thats not what fixed it i had to add to the autostart folder :[ [17:02] ubotu: ? [17:02] damianos: seems you're out of luck [17:02] why ? [17:02] AT0M1CB0MB3R: oh... :( [17:02] stealth_: then open (you'll have to use sudo) /etc/boot/menu.lst and find the kernel you're booting and add "vga=791" without the quotes to the end of that line [17:02] damianos: because it's not there? [17:02] so how can I pair my pc and mobile phone [17:02] Jucato: its better then nothing [17:02] jesse__: did you relogin? [17:02] damianos: pair them to do what? [17:02] jesse__: kde rebuilds the dir on login [17:02] AT0M1CB0MB3R: they would probably be hiding somewhere in ~/.kde/share/apps/superkaramba [17:03] kbluepin is used as pair_helper [17:03] ok [17:03] brb.. have to go [17:03] stealth: and then "sudo update-initramfs -u -k `uname -r`" without the quotes [17:03] damianos: are you sure? i don't seem to have kbluepin, but i can pair devices fine [17:03] so if there is now kbluepin so it must be something else [17:03] damianos: is kbluetooth started? [17:03] ccherrett : I restarted kdm [17:03] yes [17:03] Jucato: your correct [17:03] hola alguien habla en castellano [17:03] can u help ?

[17:06] damianos: so if you initiate pairing from your phone (or whatever), what happens? [17:06] jesse__: can you test it with an external board or a live cd?

[17:35] nosrednaekim http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41355/ [17:35] I close the upgrade window, unlocked apt, and then ran `sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade` a few times until all upgrades were done. [17:35] nope I ended up formating after all, turns out most of the /home folder had dissappeared when I tried to do some partitioning on my own through the installation program [17:35] vrun: then you can cancle that safely and run from the terminal "apt-get dist-upgrade" [17:35] hmm sounds like a bad cd try recording one at a slower speed [17:35] Me now I just need to sort my sound card out. [17:35] nosrednaekim: you got that? I allways forget puttin the name first [17:35] tuco: I am using a cable ... network is OK (as you can see me typing on THAT PC) ;-) [17:36] * LEE986321 puts a pot pie inthe micro [17:36] NickPresta: why is this happening? I came from windows to linux because of shit like this. Simple stuff that goes berserk when least expected. Now im dealing with the same shit on linux too :( :( [17:36] RytmenPinnen: so you have it installed? [17:36] nosrednaekim: yup [17:36] fresh and clean === werty is now known as lalalande [17:36] nosrednaekim: The warning I get when trying to cancel is quite scary ... :-/ [17:37] lovre, despite this problem, this is a fairly isolated incident. I've upgraded from Dapper > Edgy > Feisty and now to Gutsy and this is the first time something like this has happened. I' [17:37] vrun: i dont care, i will kill it with an axe [17:37] vrun: whats it say? [17:37] lovre, I'm experiencing a whole bunch of other problems with Gutsy at the moment. I wish I would've stayed with feisty. [17:37] OK .. so let's do it [17:37] NickPresta: there is no going back at this point? [17:37] lovre: wait, a distribution upgrade is a "small operation"? please reduce your expectations :) is upgrading from windows 2000 to XP a small operation? [17:38] juli: hmm pastebin the results of "glxinfo" for me [17:38] nosrednaekim: "Configuring kdeaddons-doc-html" ... time is not counting anymore ... or wait ... you mean the message ? [17:38] vrun: yeah [17:38] the message [17:38] o who here wants to help me set up my ati drivers now taht I have the PC seeing the ati card as a vessa? [17:38] Ok Vrun. You have a wireless card on your pc? [17:38] hi to the room.. i've rcently installed kubuntu and guarddog.now im having problems with konversation kopete korrent some help? [17:39] nosrednaekim hmm shouldnt be, its what im getting when im doing "compiz --replace" in console [17:39] LjL: well, its not a small operation, ill give you that. But it is something that should go rather smoothly. Shouldnt it? I mean, doesnt every user want to be able to be up to date without having to spend sleepless night every time a new version is released? [17:39] The system could be in an unusable state if you cancel the upgrade. You are strongly adviced to resume the upgrade ... "adviced" sic> _:-( [17:39] juli: no... I know... please pastebin the results of "glxinfo" [17:39] tuco_: NO WIRELESS on that PC [17:39] vrun: ah..ok... don't worry about it then... cancel it [17:39] nosrednaekim on the way.. [17:40] lovre, a new version is released only every six months. sure, we would all wish that upgrading were always smooth - but that's just not always the case as everyone's system is set up differently and there is plenty of things that may go wrong [17:40] OK ... I'll go for it [17:40] lalalande: you can try using IPTraf (graphical-command-line app) to see which ports you need to open in Guarddog [17:41] Ah OK. Well I could have helped you with wireless sorry. [17:41] lovre: Don't worry ... I have to work with win ... lotsa problems... KUBUNTU went fine ... until this incident ... I am hoping this is a freek one [17:41] THANKS GUYS [17:41] 'n gals [17:41] what happened to the kbuntu forums? [17:41] LjL: i realise that. And if i were on linux for a long time i would probably be ok with it. But im just getting to know linux, and now this. A version upgrade that goes wrong. It sets me of, saying: linux is not at all that great..... [17:41] juan: ?? [17:41] vrun: ummm you know what you have to run now? [17:41] nosrednaekim output of glxinfo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41356/ [17:42] lovre: windows upgrades stank too, it just that they were less often [17:42] lovre: people would tell you the same about xp to vista upgrades :) [17:42] lovre: if you thought linux was "great", then again, reduce your expectations. it's a decent free system. [17:42] anyone who can lighten my solution to this: X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 158 [17:42] i prefer th e reinstall anyways, it makes me feel like everything is a bit cleaner [17:42] juli: no direct rendering.. there is your problem. run the restricted-manager-kde and see if it says there is a ATI driver available [17:42] btw there a faster way putting peoples names in front of what you r saying when u want to adress someone specifically? [17:42] when i try to access the kubuntu forums, i get : [17:42] ERROR: Database error.

[17:43] lovre: now anyway, what are you stuck at right now? [17:43] Please someone help with my sound card. It is driven me banana! [17:43] vrun: yeah... and if that fails... just run it again and again [17:43] xmms does not works if adept manager is not open...why [17:43] nosrednaekim should i take the proprietary driver instead of radeon for sure? [17:43] juli: you can try it... [17:43] juli in Konversation, you can type a few letters and hit [tab] [17:44] tyvm all, makes life a lot easier ^^ [17:44] Well, the problem is that i know windows suck. It sux so bad, and its update sux even worse! Its so bad i dont want to have anything to do with it anymore. So i look at my alternatives. There comes kubuntu. LInux. Is there NO os that could just work? Is it much that im asking? [17:44] LjL: im stuck with installing the upgrades [17:44] norednaekim: "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)" ... do I need to reboot ? [17:45] lovre: i don't think there is any usable operating system that give you 100%, or even 95%, certainty of a successful distribution upgrade without manual intervention, no. [17:45] lovre: use the LTR (long term release) and just stick with the apps, but they do get outdated in the fast-moving world of FLOSS [17:45] radeon driver supports graphics card according to lspci... [17:45] lovre: you could allways try updating from CD Thats what I would've done if I knew what was going to happen to me when I did the network update :) [17:45] :) [17:45] lovre: can you give me a screenshot? [17:45] !adeptfix | vrun [17:45] vrun: 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 » [17:45] yes, wait [17:46] claydoh: you still there?

[17:47] nosrednaekim: lets get down to bussiness with that partitioning :) if you got time I'm not in a hurry [17:47] claydoh: what happened to kubuntuforums? [17:47] nosrednaekim: merci - works ... or better "dist-upgrade has started again now" :-) [17:47] nosrednaekim: there is no other driver available for my card, initially he recognised the graphics card as RS300 but put "ati" driver in xorg.conf [17:47] Jucato: dunno (as usual) [17:47] Anyone know what "package: ggzd" is ... it faild to install or upgrade [17:47] RytmenPinnen: it would probably be easier if you just did it from the liveCD and installed again. [17:47] i have vista installed on another partition :( and wnat to run ie in linux, will wine run ie ? [17:47] claydoh: hehehe! it's down (which is surprising...)

[17:51] can i like add a folder to apt-get's path? so that it would search it first for packages then download if the pack. isnt there? [17:51] vrun: is the upgrade still going? [17:52] yup [17:52] newsense07: probably a good idea to never use Vista period ;) [17:52] hmm I have the upgrade but my PC keeps trying to upgrade lol [17:52] YES... stay away from VISTA as long as you can !!! [17:52] [17:52] Hamra: odds are you want to use dpkg -i somepachage.deb instead [17:52] LEE986321: no notebook sticker saying its a mobility radeon 9000, lspci saying rs300 mobility radeon 9100 IGP [17:52] lovre: so it stopped doing anything after 17.34?

For some reason, when I upgraded to Gutsy, I didn't get Dolphin as my default file manager. [17:55] It still opens Konqueror... [17:55] lovre: i strongly suggest that you remove like 44 (gutsy-proposed). then "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [17:56] nosrednaekim: can i dl ie and install it using wine ?

[18:10] LEE986321: for the ones you are installing, there IS no repository [18:10] hi everyone. I ran through the procedure to upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy using the Update Manager, and it downloaded everything it needed, started applying the packages, and I checked on it every once in a while to make sure no messages had come up and the progress bar showed it was about halfway when I got a bunch of messages saying programs quit unexpectedly and then a message saying the update had been aborted. Now I can't get apt to show that any [18:10] more packages need to be installed, but I presume the update manager was only half done. Anyone know what the problem is or what I need to do to complete the update?

If I try to do it using Dolphin I get an error: "hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused UID 1000"? [18:21] jesse__: 5.10 has better power management if you leave the default config than gutsy [18:21] Even a big on-screen dialog saying ****YOUR CHANGES TO POWER MANAGEMENT SETTINGS HAVE BEEN RESET**** wouldn't be going too far tbh. [18:21] hmm very friendly channel [18:21] just a liittle bit too fast for me [18:21] nosrednaekim: sry I am a real noob.. how do I unistall? [18:21] OK< first, I did the upgrade thing, thru the net, after getting all 7.04 updates ( I read the instructions) restarted after upgrade, was missing the kernel xx.22.. somehow [18:22] tysonsw: you ran the .run file, right? [18:22] by primary I meant master I'ts my windows install. I used to have Breezy before this, and I was able to mount my windows drive as Read only, although I forgot how I got it to work.

[18:23] don_: that sounds like GNOME [18:23] "Entries in K-Menu Adept Package Manager". stuff like that for every app [18:23] <[ifr0g]> AT0M1CB0MB3R, apt-get remove --purge wine [18:23] nosrednaekim: ?

[18:27] Dr_willis: the reason i uninstalled it is cause it doesnt notice my other harddrive (the one with windows on it) [18:27] cat /usr/share/ati [18:27] lalalande: do "alt-f2" on boot and see what it hangs on. [18:27] Hmm.. Why does it need to notice the windows hard drive? wine dosent need a windows drive. [18:27] eh ok whats the comand line for getting Xine ? [18:27] hangs on?

[18:51] dhq: right [18:51] Anyone know if there's an easy way to throttle CPU freq based on temp?

[18:54] AT0M1CB0MB3R: Why would you use pidgin when you could use Kopete?? [18:54] <[ka]killer> and that just screwed it up worse [18:54] ubunturos, this is the official channel for kubuntu could we take this topic to #dhqifx [18:54] <[ifr0g]> Why dont we have foss in kuwait :*( [18:55] tyler_mauthe: cause its acting up closes on msn [18:55] tyler_mauthe: I think alot of people are having issues with kopete after upgrading 7.04 -> 7.10 [18:55] anyone have a tip on how I could get my wireless to work?

[18:55] no [18:56] h3sp4wn: issues? msg me about it and i'll look at it when i get home thanks [18:56] The reason I switched to Kubuntu from Ubuntu was because KDE has better programs, namely Kopete and Amarok [18:56] <[ka]killer> i know this problem i had it in 7.04 [18:56] is it normal that .deb installer for kde crashes in default gutsy? [18:56] where can i get beryl now? [18:56] (eats all ram) [18:56] [ka]killer: ok.. how do I fix it? [18:56] <[ka]killer> go to the manual configure disable your wireless and reenable it [18:56] <[ka]killer> that should let it connect [18:56] Dr_willis: it doesnt have a noise when people im me or i im people [18:57] Ah yep [18:57] <[ka]killer> beyond that the only solution i came up with (mind you it was an on-the-fly fix on vacation) was to write a script to disable/re-enable it for me [18:57] Kopete crashes on MSN for me too [18:57] great. [18:57] <[ka]killer> have you tried pidgin? [18:57] Ubuntu here I come I guess.. [18:57] tyler_mauthe, kopete sux as it uses alot of resources [18:57] [ka]killer: If I'm going to use Pidgin I might as well switch back to ubuntu :| [18:57] tyler you can fix that theres a bug fix out [18:57] <[ka]killer> =/ [18:57] tyler_mauthe, pidgin is good but you have to risk for its limited features [18:58] <[ka]killer> kopote was giving me problems so i switched to pidgin [18:58] <[ifr0g]> Any one here from kuwait ?

[19:19] hey guys, I just installed kubuntu 7.10 on a machine and installed KDE4, but when I try starting a kde4 session its completely unusable, the start menu is blank basically the- -only thing that shows is something at the top left, any ideas? [19:19] Zeelot: That's KDE 4 Beta 3 for you. [19:19] kaminix: because "i386" just means 32bit [19:20] stdin: But a bunch of other distros use i686 architecture? [19:20] The backtrace of the crash that Kaffeine causes says it's "from /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.7/xineplug_vo_out_xcbxv.so" [19:20] I think they are missleadign terms. :) [19:20] kaminix yea I know, jus wondering if it was a simple problem before I gave up and waited for kde4 to actually come out...really wanted to try it [19:20] kaminix: the "i386" packages are actually i486 packages [19:20] How do I upgrade from the alternate version Kubuntu CD when there is no option there? I run Ubuntu and Kubuntu 7.04 [19:21] i686 means a Pent+ dosent it? [19:21] kaminix: I believe the core devs tested the speed gained from compiling for 686 compared with 386/486 and found practically no difference so they only go with 386 now. [19:21] kaminix: it's like that so the packages will run on most/all CPU's [19:21] anyone know a way to make my wireless stop deactivating itself? [19:21] Zeelot: Try rightclicking the desktop and run some cool apps :) [19:21] I see...

[19:22] Dr_willis: 686 means Pentium 3 & 4 [19:23] Jaearess, ok. :) i never could rember that. [19:23] is there anything I should backup besides, all of /home (my documents, etc), xorg.conf, menu.lst, and any other configuration files I wanted to keep? [19:23] Things can make a difference its just software being inefficient [19:23] Do you upgrade to 7.10 from bootup? [19:23] My volume control on my keyboard was working up until about an hour ago, now it just allows me to pick between 0% and 11% and it's in a different GUI than before.. before it just flashed the Kmix dialogue as it changed.. now it's just a grey box in the centre of the screen that says Volume: and then a bar with the % in it [19:23] owner_: no, from the installed system [19:23] (e.g mplayer, imlib2, openssl) do make differences by being optimised or running 64 bit [19:24] oh-ok-I was trying to insert cd before turning it on [19:24] [ka]killer: VLC did work to play my movie.. but it's choppy [19:24] Will it ubgrade Ubunu as well?

[19:57] livingdaylight: that's because we put more effort in to the software than the website ;) [19:58] stdin, but ubuntu manage to put effort into both? [19:58] steinerhippo: indeed... that's annoying - Dolphin's kinda new, so I'm sure they'll fix it soon [19:58] tysonsw, should be some check boxc's some where.. they seem to always get moved around. [19:58] livingdaylight: ubuntu already has everything, it's just that the cd contents don't include everything in the repository [19:58] livingdaylight: yes it is different just in that other software would not be installed [19:58] ok thanks for not noticing [19:58] I ran the version upgrade from within Adept Manager.... it downloaded all 1406 packages, but then crapped out. is there anyway to finish the upgrade without re-fetching all the packages? [19:58] livingdaylight, well ubuntu+kde=kubuntu so double the features [19:58] gameforge: i also think so, it will part of kde4, they can't let it unfixed [19:59] the question if i add kubuntu desktop it will mess up how my gnome ubuntu looks if i choose to remove it later [19:59] livingdaylight: it's easy to install compiz fusion in kubuntu [19:59] livingdaylight: canonical designed ubuntu.com, they don't pay for kubuntu.com design [19:59] livingdaylight, you wany eye candy like windows , try compiz-fusion [19:59] livingdaylight: not necessarily [19:59] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ stdin like this?

[20:00] WaltzingAlong, what not necessarily?

[20:01] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41384/ is this betterreading lol stdin [20:01] WaltzingAlong, so you assure me 100% i can add kubuntu desktop from Ubuntu and kubuntu will come separate from ubuntu without messing or interfiring with it? === Mez is now known as Mez|Away [20:01] livingdaylight: install "kubuntu-desktop" with aptitude, the if you want to remove it, use aptitude to do it. aptitude keeps track of dependencies better, so when you remove a package with aptitude it'll remove the packages that were installed because of it [20:02] maverick: you must resize or remove another partition in order to enlarge your ubuntu partition [20:02] i just thought maybe better to do a clean install of kubuntu if i want to try it rather than going the add kubuntu desktop route [20:02] Hi! [20:02] 12 oclock and it like its 4 pm...erg its getting dark out side [20:02] stdin, thx, that is a good tip [20:02] Does anybody else here have problems with a dual monitor setup in Gutsy? [20:02] dithi_: i know... the question is using what tool?!! [20:02] ctw, thats a bit vague. :) [20:02] livingdaylight: for me it helps to think of them as ubuntuG ubuntuK and ubuntuX (with the others like EDU) but the ubuntu flagship is centered around GNOME. canonical supports kubuntu which is the same base but with kde as the front end [20:02] It worked fine in Feisty, but broke in Gutsy [20:02] ctw, yes [20:02] maverick: did you try qtparted or gparted? [20:02] stdin eh I created a thing taht said correction made kinda like a book mark [20:02] livingdaylight, not that I'm aware...i wouldn't use it anyway [20:02] ctw, I have my nvidia cards set with twinview working decently well. [20:03] livingdaylight: whichever you installed latest will set the defaults i think so you will then see the 'kubuntu' name when booting [20:03] ctw: which card do you use? [20:03] dithi_: no, but am using Kubuntu (sorry for not mentioning before) i guess i can use qparted [20:03] I cannot seem to find the package: libxine-extracodecs. Has the name changed? [20:03] WaltzingAlong, i do understand that, but because they come with different applications and libraries i found they get meshed together and not easy to disentangle after [20:03] maverick: it's qtparted [20:03] dithi_: intel 915, i810 driver [20:03] ardchoille, yes libxine1-ffmpeg or some thing like it [20:03] hm.. no idea, I always used twinview with nvidia-settings [20:04] if I need to I ca nload the 64 bit verson of Ubuntu and pratcie with that [20:04] <[ka]killer> i have libxine1-ffmpeg installed and im still haivn gproblems [20:04] livingdaylight: use something like aptitude to install the others; yeah different as much as works with both is there already but for media player, for system settings, and for other such things gnome (ubuntu) has its set and kde (kubuntu) has its set [20:04] BluesKaj: Ah, that package is there.

[20:15] does anyone know the commands to connect to the internet with kubuntu 7.10 with the command line? [20:15] mayeco: ?? change the ownership of what? [20:16] jpwhiting: the config file [20:16] acee12345: ethernet, wireless? which? [20:16] ~/.kde/share/config/_app_ [20:16] mayeco: not sure, what exactly do you do to reproduce the bug? just open an app with kdesu and change a setting, or remove the config file then open the app? [20:16] jpwhiting: wireless died after knetwork manager died so i guess ethernet [20:16] acee12345: sudo ifup eth0 [20:16] stdin: remove the config file, kdesu the app [20:16] stdin, actually, I talked about this with the guys from yakuake, they told me that yakuake does some weird things too.. in either case, its the combination that does the trick, and whoever causes these crashes, it crashes, thats what counts :) [20:17] in Gusty [20:17] this is not about yakuake [20:17] annma: :) what are you doing here? [20:17] any kde app will do [20:17] yes is about kdesu [20:17] jpwhiting: checking a claim [20:17] thought you were a mandriva fan [20:17] ah [20:17] tssss [20:17] jpwhiting: alright letme hibernate windows and ill try that thank you [20:17] acee12345: no problem [20:18] known gutsy bug mayeco [20:18] annma, mayeco: if I remove the config file then kdesu app, then I do see that happening [20:18] Does anyone know how to change the system wide Qt4 style? [20:18] fuck!!! [20:19] !language [20:19] !language [20:19] I'll never use KUbuntu [20:19] Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. [20:19] what annma [20:19] weeew [20:19] annma: no need for that language in here [20:19] this is so big [20:19] YES! [20:19] I cannot believe it [20:19] is HUGE! [20:19] google earth sucks? BluesKaj how about the solarwind or whatever it is called from nasa? [20:19] * mayeco i'm not an idiot! [20:19] mayeco: SORRY [20:19] I apologize [20:19] thorns: qt4 has a config tool but i dont know affects KDE theme style [20:19] xD!!! np [20:19] I cannot believe it [20:20] mee to [20:20] <[ka]killer> bah [20:20] <[ka]killer> why is xine still not working right [20:20] are you sure you've used kdesudo and not sudo? [20:20] it's a showstoppper [20:20] LjL sudo or kdesu [20:20] happed [20:20] happend [20:20] LjL: I asked in #kubuntu-devel [20:20] they confirmed! [20:21] AHHHHHHHHHH! [20:21] it's not a showstopper, it'd only happen when you run the app as root first [20:21] <[ka]killer> i just want xine to work T_T [20:21] stdin: !!! [20:21] come on [20:22] so many first comers are root [20:22] Saied: I'm just looking for a config tool, cli or gui, so I can easily set my user wide and/or system wide qt4 style [20:22] <[ka]killer> anyone besides me having video playback problems with xine & kaffeine? [20:22] Saied: Do you know which tool that is? [20:22] thorns: kcmshell colors, then check the apply kde colors to non kde apps [20:23] that should set the gtk and qt styles to the same color scheme [20:23] I think [20:23] thorns: qtconfig-qt4 [20:23] annma: it's not as huge as you think, unless the very first time then run the app it's run with kdesu then it won't happen [20:23] annma: and most new comers don't even know about kdesu [20:24] anyway I'll be in Boston next week, I'll talk about it stdin [20:24] it's an important bug, but not as big as you're making ti [20:24] *it [20:24] it makes KDE bad [20:24] thorns: i think it needs a new theme style for current KDE and KDE4 even Gnome and other DEs. [20:24] it's quite important to discuss [20:25] thorns: my current qt4 apps are a few ugly [20:25] are you talking about kdesu? [20:25] that renaming sucks :-) [20:25] How to save text file edited in Kate using terminal? [20:26] stdin: most apps are run with kdesu actualy [20:26] most admin apps anyway [20:26] kdesu isnt there anymore [20:26] darkox: what? [20:26] at least it keeps telling me that [20:26] jpwhiting: the admin apps aren't going to be ran as the normal user, so the ownership of the files doesn't matter [20:27] stdin: if you run adept_manager from the k-menu it runs it with kdesu [20:27] jpwhiting: yes, so the ownership doesn't matter, as it's always run with kdesu [20:27] jpwhiting: avoid kdesu [20:27] I edited text, but don't have access to save it. I want to try save it as root...

[20:43] :) [20:43] Well, I'd try redownloading the iso. [20:43] That might be the problem. [20:44] ok, i probably found it [20:44] MLG_GooseMann: Yeah I came across that problems on the forums and I checked it, it should be OK. Do you think trying the alternate ISO is worth a shot? [20:44] solution for gnome: Go to System->Preferences->Appearance->Fonts and change the rendering method to "Best contrast". [20:44] MLG_GooseMann: Also, is there a way to watch the installer's console output? [20:45] has kde the same option hiding somewhere?

[20:46] pikachuumx_: in a terminal, then you can also do something like dmesg | grep card_make [20:46] dvayanu: otherwise turn on 'auto hinting' in ~/.fonts.conf [20:47] ah [20:47] sven_: which one? [20:47] pikachuumx_: card_make being the actually card, like intel or whatever [20:47] MLG_GooseMann: right, well I'll try redownloading the desktop one first - thanks for your advice :) [20:47] No problem.

[20:48] Why do I need so much crap to install Firefox? [20:48] What crap Xera? [20:48] in 7.04 I didn't, in 7.10 I appear to need a load of other stuff [20:48] Xera: if you do not want gtk you can just grab the static one from getfirefox.com/ [20:48] sven_: hmmm I think that is to select a firmware file [20:48] nosrednaekim, In the window that shows up (and that looks frozen) I can select a location for the driver.. local or on the internet.. but I cant type anything, I cant press buttons, I cant even close that window, its completely frozen [20:48] nosrednaekim, it is [20:49] sven_: i'm not sure if it goes out to the internet [20:49] WaltzingAlong: getfirefox.com gives me an archive [20:49] sven_: ah.. ok [20:49] Xera: yes, which you extract with tar xvfz firefox.tar.fz [20:49] I ha ve a list of pc informatio and my wifi appeear in here but I don't know how to connect with it I connected with my wired card [20:49] gz [20:49] nosrednaekim, I was told that it did but.. even so, I would have to press OK or something first? in anycase, the window is dead..

[20:50] can someone help me i am trying to get kde4 working [20:50] nosrednaekim, any idea on how I can bypass this? I already downloaded the file that appeared in that window, can I install this file manually maybe? [20:50] * AmyRose wonders why strangers from this channel keep /msging her... [20:50] Xera: something called ubuntuzilla or something like that?

[20:54] acee12345: restore what program? [20:54] jpwhiting: knetwork manager [20:54] WaltzingAlong: how then? if I try and install just firefox it wants to download a load of other stuff that it didn't in 7.04 [20:54] so that i can use my proset wirless [20:54] acee12345: you deleted it? [20:55] jpwhiting: somehow [20:55] for gnome, they have gnome-open to open app with default app, what kde have? [20:56] acee12345: do you have knetworkmanager in /usr/bin anymore? [20:56] nosrednaekim: Hehe, I didn't of that :) I got it working now :) Thanks! [20:56] jpwhiting:ii dont know let me bring up irc on an alternate comp and ill hibernate again [20:57] StarSys: thats what its there for ;) [20:57] :) [20:59] Heh nevermind, it seems I was trying to install a "joke" package from the universe repo [21:01] i'm having trouble with my wireless card, it was working and now... its not. [21:01] Xera: same way as before. what it needs it grabs. may be because packages changed. split bigger ones. maybe you had already installed gtk stuff last time? [21:01] nosrednaekim, I looked on the ubuntu forums, but I can only find tuturials for installing wireless with ndiswrappers... this restricted driver that kubuntu wants to install on my laptop (but fails to do so) is also with ndis? because if its not, I prefer to use the no-ndiswrapper [21:02] sven_: hmmm I don't know.. [21:02] it may be [21:02] sven_: just a sec.. let me take a look [21:02] sven_: nope... its using a native driver === oslo is now known as oslo_pasl [21:04] not really sure what info you need to diagnose the prob [21:04] nosrednaekim, mmm, so it would be better to install that one instead of the ndiswrapper one, correct?... [21:04] sven_: I don't know...if you can get it working ;) [21:04] Good afternoon, folks. Hope all is well [21:05] nosrednaekim, any reason why the restricted driver program may hang? [21:05] QUestion for the experts - can Adept be told to download and install in parallel [21:05] rather than doing it serially? [21:06] sven_: no... [21:06] I'm updating the systems and it seems to be odd that updates can;t be installing while others download [21:06] kmart: here? haha this is the SUPPORT channel my friend ;) [21:06] kmart: that probably wouldn't be good. [21:06] because of dependencies [21:06] and you'd install them far faster than you could DL [21:07] no, it could totally trash your system [21:07] and I have the opposite question. can I do the download (over dial up) and keep running my other apps _until_ the package installation takes place? [21:07] nosredmaekim - understood, but it does seem it should know wheter a dependency is need and wait for it [21:07] roadfish: you can keep running applications even when packagaes are being installed [21:07] maybe I dislike waiting too much [21:07] I really need some help finding out something on my system. I can't boot from LiveCDs and I'm starting to become desperate [21:08] frank_ understood [21:08] kmart: there probably wouldn't bevery much of a speed increase, but simpler and reliable to DL them all first [21:08] frank_: ok thanks. but I thought I saw a message that said I should shut down my apps? [21:08] kmart: that way you aren't left with half-finished installs/upgrades and other such things [21:09] roadfish: are you upgrading to gutsy? [21:09] kubuntu doesn't have an official forum does it?

[21:26] any opinion on using the "alternate CD/DVD" for upgrading instead of "Adept Manager"? likely to be more or less reliable ... or not really any difference? [21:26] !helpersnack | dithi_ [21:27] dithi_: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [21:27] Kr4t05: liscencing issues [21:27] now basket needs a fix... it crashes on every startup [21:27] vbgunz: it works for me [21:27] maybe this patch for kopete fixes it, heh, could only hope [21:27] Oh... [21:27] what does it say in terminal? [21:27] vbgunz: Basket works for me, but I can't get it into kontact like I had it in Feisty === arnifa is now known as arnif [21:28] vbgunz: I'm not sure i've tried without the patch... probably it works for you === edulix_ is now known as edulix === edulix is now known as Edulix [21:28] dithi_: is xvnc server avail from apt-get? I dont see it [21:28] does anyone know why knetwork manager shows"no active device" and will not display available networks on kubuntu 7.10 prosetwireless [21:28] everytime I launch basket, it closes and a kmail messages pops up to be sent [21:29] I'll try again after the patch but the patch is giving me problems too at the moment :/ [21:29] clyrrad: vncserver [21:30] dithi_: I see vnc4server [21:30] nosrednaekim: Thats strange, because it's still on the packages server. [21:30] clyrrad: afaik, vncserver starts a new x11 session, while x11vnc uses an existing x server [21:30] Kr4t05: hmm maybe I heard wrong...wouldn't be the first time ;) [21:30] Is anyone else with nvidia drivers missing tty's 1-6? Or is this known? [21:31] basket started up [21:31] ardchoille: it works for me until I suspend [21:31] I'll try kopete [21:31] clyrrad: I don't know what's the difference between vnc4server and vncserver [21:31] I guess vnc4server is more up-to-date, or it may be a fork [21:32] freenx [21:32] hi [21:33] oh, yeah, I want to try freenx, I tried non-free nx a long time ago and I liked it so much [21:33] i try nvidia-settings --load-only-config to load my nvidia settings, but nothing happens [21:33] !launchpad [21:33] Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [21:33] roadfish: not sure about reliability but having the packages downloaded can help a lot should there be any hiccups during upgrade; no need to redownload them [21:34] yeah, that patch removed over 43 packages. basket launches without a hiccup and kopete is signed in [21:34] looks real good so far [21:34] hmm. i get a black screen on the boot up.. and ive tryed changeing to VGA mode and everything... Its on a thinkpad laptop [21:34] vbgunz: Can you get basket to appear in kontact? [21:34] dunno what to do [21:34] ardchoille: I'll look [21:35] ardchoille: no, it doesn't show up inside kontact [21:35] vbgunz: In feisty, basket was a module you could add, like the notes, journal, and others [21:35] !dvd [21:35] For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs [21:35] ardchoille: I know, I seen it but always had basket sitting in the tray [21:36] how can i load at startup nvidia-settings.rc? [21:36] I never really started to use any KDE apps until the end of feisty... I switched from firefox, thunderbird to konqueror and kmail... now, its gaim for kopete if those long standing bugs really got fixed [21:38] btw.. is there any easy way to install kde4? i guess the guide on kubuntu homepage is easy but i sure as hell couldnt figure it out [21:39] hargibi: thats about as easy as it gets [21:39] hargibi, it' not as easy they say [21:40] hmmm [21:40] Hi everybody! [21:40] hargibi: its not worth installing it at this point. [21:40] ahh [21:40] well i figured that almost [21:40] why does distribution upgrade freeze on "installing the upgrades" on kubuntu 7.10? [21:40] beta sucks [21:40] =) [21:40] it's very clunky and unstable [21:41] but anyone know anything about my black boot loading screen? [21:41] The kubuntu installer can't see my raid setup, it just wants to install to one of the disks in the raid set [21:41] I need help with a small thing. [21:41] First time I wanted to install Kubuntu 7.04 I had to run the Live CD first. [21:41] raidproblem: I think you need to use the alternate installer for RAID [21:42] Then after that I could install it to my hdd. [21:42] ah ok [21:42] But I don't want that. [21:42] if no one knows who might i ask? [21:42] Then somebody here gave me a link to a Kubuntu 7.04-version that I didn't need to run Live CD first then install it. [21:42] x_link: with the 'desktop' or livecd that is how it works [21:42] x_link: otherwise you need the dvd version or the alternate cd [21:42] acee1234: what error does it give you? [21:43] nosrednaekim: nothing just sits on 0% [21:43] But with the Kubuntu 7.04-cd that I have now I don't need to run Live CD first, I just put in the CD and then I install Kubuntu. Really smooth. [21:43] acee1234: on the command line? [21:43] WaltzingAlong: Alternate, does KDE get installed as well then? [21:43] x_link: yes [21:43] i did it through adapt [21:43] x_link: sure with the kubuntu alternate cd [21:44] nosrednaekim: i did it through adapt command line shows nothing when i hit "show terminal" [21:44] Ahh okej. [21:44] well, I guess I have to go and download another CD :) === lido76-14 is now known as tedoyan [21:44] vbgunz: which bug(s) affected you with kopete? [21:44] and find another CD to burn to :) [21:44] acee1234: did it already DL the packages? [21:44] So Alternate = not Live CD, you just install Kubuntu right away? [21:44] thanks for help [21:44] nosrednaekim: yes [21:44] WaltzingAlong: 153500 === Mez is now known as Mez|Away [21:44] AM I right? [21:44] gutsy is still a bit "Holey" if you get my drift , but it will be better in a month or 2 after the feedback and fixes are in place [21:44] x_link: sure. desktop is run live, then the option to install (or not); alternate has no run live but is just install [21:45] acee1234: then,from the command line,run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"... close adept first [21:45] WaltzingAlong: the format toolbar and the little windows that popup when people sign on... I still don't think I know how to get rid of that popup message... [21:45] WaltzingAlong: Nice! [21:45] BluesKaj: you mean we should bow down to it? [21:45] WaltzingAlong: there were others but I cannot remember them now [21:45] vbgunz: settings->configure notifications [21:45] no nosrednaekim , holey not holy :) [21:46] WaltzingAlong: Cause I have another Kubuntu 7.04-version as well. When I install Kubuntu with that CD I don't get KDE, I need to do sudo aptitude install kde-core. [21:46] BluesKaj: oh.... ;-) [21:46] hey all, is there an app that will go through a users /home and remove .folders for apps no longer installed? [21:46] WaltzingAlong: So Kubuntu-7.10-alternate isn't like that? [21:46] ok, am setting up window behaviour for kopete, will do that right after [21:46] x_link: which is the other? xubuntu or ubuntu ? [21:46] BigDaddy: don't think so :) [21:46] nosrednaekim: changed time zone and upgrades "tzdata" thats it [21:46] holey = come s with holes in it , like my socks [21:46] nosrednaekim: damn [21:46] WaltzingAlong: Kubuntu. [21:46] BigDaddy: write one ;) [21:46] BluesKaj: send them back if the come with holes... [21:47] nosrednaekim: ha! that's rich. I am nerd, but not that good of one [21:47] don't complain to me! === Mez|Away is now known as Mez [21:47] BigDaddy: =) [21:47] x_link: that is strange that the kubuntu alternate cd would not install kde [21:47] acee1234: hmmm try a reboot then :) [21:47] looks like I need to go through manually an get rid of them then. [21:47] BigDaddy, not sure which distro ? lsb_release -a [21:47] nosrednaekim: alright brb [21:47] BluesKaj: kubuntu 7.04 [21:48] vbgunz: the notifications are in the kopete/settings/configure notifications [21:48] got it, looking at it now, thanks a million fellas [21:49] WaltzingAlong: I don't think it's Kubuntu Alternate.. [21:49] WaltzingAlong: Well, thanks alot! [21:49] bye all! have fun with gutsy! === dithi_ is now known as DiThi [21:49] WaltzingAlong: Thanks alot for your help! [21:49] BluesKaj: what is lsb_release [21:49] vbgunz: when are you sending a message or chat, turn off the format toolbar with the chat/message window/settings/toolbars/format [21:49] ? [21:50] x_link: even the live kubuntu cd should install (the pieces of kde for that kubuntu distribution) kde [21:50] WaltzingAlong: I seem to have gotten rid of that toolbar for good. am so glad it actually sticks now :) [21:50] HALP! where is the dualview program that comes with gutsy [21:50] BigDaddy, in the konsole the ' lsb_release -a ' command tells you which version [21:51] :d [21:51] BluesKaj: oh. I already knew the version but still cool to know that [21:52] well, it's awy of checking once you've upgraded [21:52] a way [21:53] can't get multimedia buttons working on toshiba laptop. [21:53] any ideas? [21:53] same result [21:53] Pete^_: when you say you can't get them to work, what have you done so far? [21:54] used xev [21:54] anyone know why have to use ifup eth0 every time i want to access the Internet. wireless doesnt seem to work either. [21:55] have you just tried using the keyboard shortcuts under the control center? Turns out that was all I needed to do for my multimedia keyboard [21:55] tried that... [21:55] hi - i've just installed gutsy and i'm having problems with my mouse in kde - the focus is not being updated to the active window - any ideas? [21:56] eg: now, its acting like im still clicked on the 'konsole' icon on my taskbar [21:56] is this a known problem? [21:58] Hi! [21:58] does kopete do logging?

[22:00] settings -> plugins -> history, It definetly logs it, since it display when you opne chat window, but I never bothered looking file location [22:00] hola [22:00] hi [22:00] how to upgade to gutsy [22:00] ? [22:00] if no one know how to fix the wireless does any one who who i might ask? [22:00] alejandro: upgrade instructions are in the topic [22:00] its stable now? [22:00] alejandro, download iso, burn, install [22:01] arash: hmm. I have that plugin enabled...

[22:02] automatically install debs [22:02] tekteen, still don't know what you mean [22:02] arash: heh, I meant when I need to look into the logs, I hope it doesn't become impossible to find them or a nuisance [22:02] add extra debs autmatically [22:03] change what is installed [22:03] tried to install nvidia driver but the propretary driver was greyed out [22:03] tekteen, depends which cd you have , but if you want to use it as a source there's an option [22:03] vbgunz: save it as favorites if you found em once, you don't think the normal 'show messages when open chat window' is enough? [22:03] why would this happen [22:03] hello.i installed windoze and the boot loader was gone.i somehow tried something on ubuntuforums.then i uninstalled grub and installed grub2.what can i do so it will be able to find my windoze as well? [22:03] tekteen: so to build your own livecd? [22:03] !grub | BrightEyes` [22:03] BrightEyes`: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[22:04] arash: thats the thing, I went all up and down the chat window, I didn't see anything about logs or history [22:05] ahh, in right click on a buddy, I see 'view history' [22:05] thats good enough :) [22:05] we referb computers and put on kubuntu [22:05] vbgunz: Good enough for government work ;) , whoops, I mean Open source work! [22:05] heh [22:05] I hope Kopete turns out to be great :) [22:05] I need to know how to have it auto install kubuntu then run a script automatically [22:06] anyone know [22:07] how do i edit the kubuntu install program on the live cd? [22:07] hi [22:07] where is log file of dhcp3-server? [22:07] consumer linux still got a looooooooooooooooooong way to go [22:07] yep [22:08] Hmm.. My Evil clone from the basement is on. :) [22:08] where in xorg.conf do modelines go? [22:08] foxhound31: best define your consumer [22:08] well I do IT support for a living and I was hoping 7.10 [22:08] jussi01, might want to google for some xorg.conf examples - easier to explain that way. [22:09] jussi01, i dont even think i have any modelines in my xorg.conf any more [22:09] would be as easy as they said butso far I cant get my graphics card working or mount the drives [22:09] Dr_willis_: yeah. ok. just name a section if you can :) [22:09] IT guys use consumer versions ? [22:09] so no change there then [22:09] just as difficult as ever so that why its not going to be consumer linux anytime soon [22:09] most IT guys i know use enterprise linux servers [22:09] jussi01, i cant. Just looked. No 'Modeline" lines at all. i THINK they go under the monitors sections [22:10] damn. 19s lag [22:10] jussi01, since the modeline is a feature/setting of the monitor. [22:11] foxhound31, given some of the song and dancing ive had to do with windows in the last month or so.. I will stick with Linux. :) [22:11] Dr_willis_: who are you? [22:11] does anyone here know how to modify the live cd to run a script after installing kubuntu? I need it so idiots (ok... computer illiterate people) install kubuntu the same way on many machines. [22:11] I can't start dhcp3-server. What I can do? [22:12] Where I can see the errors? [22:12] looks like kubuntu got some bugs in 7.10 cos ubuntu can mount the drives but kubuntu cant [22:12] how come my computer is using 100% cpu and all i have on is amarok and konversation and superkaramba [22:12] tekteen, there is a feature i think like that for the 'OEM' setup on the alternative install cd and some sort of 'kickstart' feature i read about [22:13] AT0M1CB0MB3R: fire up top and find out what's using the cpu power. === andreas_ is now known as andreas__ [22:13] foxhound31, isn't the mounting part identical for those two? Im a noob in these thing though... [22:13] tekteen, let me see if i can find it. [22:13] where can I get more info === andreas__ is now known as Garnam [22:13] ok [22:13] billytwowilly: whats top?

[22:15] AT0M1CB0MB3R: you just run top in the command line and see what is using the processing power... [22:15] Dr_willis_: wow, can you give me the logs of the first person ? then i'll file a bug [22:15] hey.. um.. i had a couple errors during upgrade, and now it seems to have frozen [22:16] i was gonna exit out of it, but it said it could render it unusable [22:16] rohan, he basicially said what you did [22:16] is it safe to close and re-open adept or what? [22:16] Dr_willis_: did he say anyhting about filing a bug ? [22:16] rohan: cut and paste? doesn't update the desktop; files/folders show greyed out?

[22:17] billytwowilly: i cant move any windows [22:17] just noticed that bug heh heh [22:17] Dr_willis_: yeah [22:17] well I don't mind really [22:17] AT0M1CB0MB3R: then you're screwed. [22:17] bascule: ok, once you do, give me the link, i'll add my "me too" [22:17] Dr_willis_: I submitted the volume bug [22:18] how can I find out what the wifi adpater is on my laptop? [22:18] looke like i can move 10% total from 100 to 90 :) [22:18] irvken: lspci [22:18] no that won't give the wifi adapter [22:18] it might :) [22:18] bascule: you're filing right now ? [22:18] Dr_willis_: not here, atleas [22:19] rohan: yeah [22:19] its not just saying some 'unknown device' ? :) === simenaf is now known as carwash === carwash is now known as carwash^ [22:19] bascule: cool :) [22:19] anyone got bluetooth and a2dp working? [22:19] Ive given up on wireless. :( [22:20] Dr_willis_: which card ? [22:20] rohan, 4 different ones.. :) [22:20] rohan: already there https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dolphin/+bug/136695 [22:20] Dr_willis_: haha [22:20] rohan, even under windows - i jsut dont get a good signal in my house. so i ran wires [22:20] Dr_willis: the site is great for preseed but not for running a script at the end. thanks anyway though [22:20] intel ones work well i think, Dr_willis_ [22:20] oh, Dr_willis_ , not a linux problem [22:20] lspci doesn't seem to report anything that looks vaguely like the wifi [22:20] is there a way to determine what package a file belongs to? [22:20] tekteen, check out that 'oem' feature of the alt-cd perhaps. [22:20] ok [22:21] thanx [22:21] rohan, wirless dont work too well going through the wall/floors here past all the pipes and wires and ductwork [22:21] Then again it Barely worked in the same room as the wireless router. [22:21] Perhaps when wireless N gets cheaper i may try that [22:21] trying to backup harddrive onto dvds, it's saying it can only burn 6 directories deep, using gnomebaker.. is that the limit with dvds? [22:22] flake, may be an juilet filesystem limit. [22:22] my wireless is fine, just the laptop with a problem [22:22] flake: with the filesystem i think [22:22] thers variations on that - i think that can go deeper. [22:22] try k3b. it has more features then gnomebaker. and i know you can set that with it. [22:22] anyone to help me configure grub2??? [22:23] BrightEyes`: what is the problem ? [22:23] hydrogen: dpkg -S some/file [22:23] bascule: yea.. found that righta fter I asked :) [22:23] ok [22:23] rohan: i uninstalled grub and installed grub2 and i want to find my windows os so i ll be able to boot there too.how can i do that [22:23] hi [22:23] cool [22:24] kubntu 7.10 is rc still [22:24] no?

Do you know anything about the command line? If not, then wait for someone who knows how to figure this stuff out in agui to help you. I've already told you the name of the programt hat lets you look at cpu and memory usage. [22:31] and see whats using it [22:31] i think i should use the 64bit cause my computer is a 64bit should i? [22:31] strange .... [22:32] !language [22:32] Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. [22:32] AT0M1CB0MB3R: you can, does not mean you have to [22:32] AT0M1CB0MB3R, i would guess that somthing crashed and is sucking up cpu. logout/back in [22:32] billytwowilly: i ran top shut up and chill out [22:32] billytwowilly: it never came up [22:32] AT0M1CB0MB3R: then reboot your system. [22:32] WaltzingAlong: can you install flash and stuff now with problems or anything like that? [22:33] If the system cant respond to a shell command. You got somthing very messed up. You might be better off rebooting. [22:33] rohan: i uninstalled grub and installed grub2 and i want to find my windows os so i ll be able to boot there too.how can i do that [22:33] err [22:33] oops [22:33] AT0M1CB0MB3R: thats CTRL+ESCAPE [22:33] ctrl_alt_escape is another sequence [22:33] as I just demonstrated [22:33] BrightEyes`: 02:54 < rohan> BrightEyes`: sorry, no idea .. never used grub2 [22:33] AT0M1CB0MB3R: yes those things work still, perhaps a step or two (more or other) but sure [22:33] hydrogen: whats that do? ctrl alt escape do? [22:33] AT0M1CB0MB3R: when i had 64 bit hardware i preferred to have the 64bit os [22:33] ctrl_alt_escape kills the next selected window [22:33] ctrl_escape shows a process table [22:34] Hi, did alt-tab behaviour change with 7.10? [22:34] ChrisMir, not that ive noticed. [22:34] WaltzingAlong: me too but i could never install flash or any of the stuff i needed [22:34] WaltzingAlong: in feisty [22:34] oh cool, couldn't get my internal adapter working, but the moment I stuck an external usb wifi dapter in it auto configured [22:34] AT0M1CB0MB3R: i had it working in feisty. [22:34] hmm, normally I get a popupwindow with apps in the middle of my screen, which now aint happening [22:34] WaltzingAlong: 64bit? [22:35] there is very little reason for a 64bit os [22:35] AT0M1CB0MB3R: yes [22:35] ChrisMir: you've compiz enabled ? [22:35] nope [22:35] WaltzingAlong: was it hard [22:35] AT0M1CB0MB3R: no [22:35] with the exception of a placebo [22:35] ChrisMir: well it's working perfectly here .. [22:35] ChrisMir, i get a list of apps. same as i al3ways did. [22:35] (64bit is obviously twice as fast as 32bit) [22:35] ChrisMir: it lists the open windows [22:35] AT0M1CB0MB3R: hydrogen: yes 64bit desktop os is not the norm now, true [22:35] ChrisMir, you using compiz? [22:35] No, I dont use compiz [22:35] hydrogen: 64bit does not mean 2x as fast as 32bit [22:35] I do have it installed, but kwin is active [22:35] 2X As cool. :) [22:36] WaltzingAlong: I can see that sarcasm is not one of your stronger points [22:36] nor is reading.. [22:36] WaltzingAlong: does it go faster as 64bit or no? [22:36] hydrogen: haha [22:36] WaltzingAlong: i guess im stupid [22:36] AT0M1CB0MB3R: no, it doesn't [22:36] hydrogen: yes all about user's impression [22:36] WaltzingAlong: so is it worth installing a 64bit os? [22:36] with the exception of a few corner cases [22:37] why are some items disabled in firefox's "Help" menu ? [22:37] I dont see much need to use a 64bit os for most people. [22:37] report web forgery and such ? [22:37] AT0M1CB0MB3R: you will likely not notice a difference in speed with desktop computing (64bit vs 32bit) [22:37] does anyone know how to update kubuntu through the gutsy cd? [22:37] well my computer is using 85 percent of cpu and i have 2 programs running [22:37] as easily as one could argue that most of the people using desktop computers now are not using the 32bits worth === jrattner is now known as jrattner1 [22:37] whats "rootnoverify" and whats the last symbol in "(hd0,0)" ? [22:37] prak: you need the dvd or the alternate-cd (not live/desktop) [22:37] Report Web Forgey works here. [22:38] BrightEyes`, what last symbol? [22:38] hallloooo [22:38] WaltzingAlong: i got the desktop CD [22:38] well my computer is using 85 percent of cpu and i have 2 programs running WaltzingAlong [22:38] Dr_willis_: yes, my mistake [22:38] "Check for updates" doesn't [22:38] prak: then you cannot. [22:38] rootnoverify tells it to set the partition as root. and just DO it.. :) [22:38] I installed a pre-release of gutsy, now that it's released I'm being told in adept that I'm supposed to version upgrade, but the version upgrade tool says I'm already upgraded... any suggestions? [22:38] rohan, thats beause updates are handled with the package manager system. Not firefox itself. [22:38] !final | binduwavell [22:38] binduwavell: If you installed a Tribe/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Gutsy. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [22:38] Instead of the list of apps, apps are just switched, when I use alt-tab. `kwin --replace` didn't solve it. :/ [22:39] binduwavell, you are upgraded then. [22:39] Dr_willis_: i know that, yet i was just curious ;) [22:39] binduwavell: but yes that is a known issue (being asked to install gutsy on systems with gutsy) [22:39] Dr_willis: the hd0,0 the last 0 [22:39] BrightEyes`, thats the partition #. grub basics here. :) [22:39] Dr_willis_: btw, how did you change the default file manager to konqueror ? i don't think i like dolphin [22:39] AT0M1CB0MB3R: it may be the strigi indexer.. [22:39] rohan: its in systemsettings/kcontrol [22:39] hydrogen: how do i disable that [22:39] rohan, let me check. ya got to fire up konwueror. under Settings/Configure Konwueror. [22:40] AT0M1CB0MB3R: uninstall it is the quick way.. [22:40] theres a way to stop it form indexing [22:40] I think [22:40] hydrogen, thats what i did [22:40] I just uninstalled it [22:40] Dr_willis_: and then ? [22:40] you have to go to like strigi:/config in konq i think [22:40] hi all [22:40] hydrogen: where ? i don't see it in "Default applications" atleast [22:40] rohan, File Assouations -> INODE. - select each item and look. Move 'konqueror' up the list where its above Dolphin [22:41] how do you set konqueror as default instead of dolphin? [22:41] rohan, you are basicially setting the default file assicaton for 'direcroties' :) [22:41] fire up konwueror -> Settings/Configure Konwueror. [22:41] directories but also system:/ media:/ [22:41] Dr_willis_: i see .. thanks a lot [22:41] File Assouations -> INODE. - select each item and look. Move 'konqueror' up the list where its above Dolphin [22:41] I've installed compiz how do i get it work? [22:41] !compiz [22:41] 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 [22:42] ubotu, Dr_willis & WaltzingAlong: thanks... but why do I keep getting notified I'm supposed to version upgrade? btw, i did apt-get update and dist-upgrade both indicate I'm up to date... [22:42] wow ubotu displays different factoids depending on the channel .. cool [22:42] Its a bugglet binduwavell [22:42] if they say you are up to date.. then you are. [22:42] binduwavell: you are but it is a bug [22:42] rohan: and depending on the query! [22:42] Dr_willis_: OK, so I just ignore for now? [22:42] I just got kopete fixed... just trying to do cleanup :) [22:42] binduwavell, got a better idea? :) yes..ignore it. [22:43] Dr_willis: kk, thanks [22:43] 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) === simon__ is now known as racoon__ === AmyRose_laptop is now known as AmyRose [22:44] Hmm.. 'configure window behaviour' -> Focus -> enabling 'show window list while switching windows', gave me back the normal behaviour, although with the mentioned frames. weirdness [22:44] Dr_willis: Thanks [22:45] hydrogen: quick before my cpu is using 100 percent how do i uninstall strigi [22:45] here we go... === harald is now known as edenbeast [22:45] To Make konqueror the default file manager intead of Dolphin do the following Start Konqueror -> Settings->Configure Konqueror -> File Assoiations -> INODE, [22:45] Under "Directrory" and "System Directory" Move Konqueror UP the list above dolphin. [22:45] Is that clear enough for a factoid? :) [22:46] anybody know where I can allow my windows to traverse multiple desktops when I drag them? I can't remember where that setting is :-) [22:46] TBH, I prefer Dolphin to Konqueror. [22:46] when i start my comp, i have a kio kthumbnail process that uses ~80% cpu and mem. why? I kill it, but next time it is the same [22:47] hydrogen: you there man? [22:47] Hello everybody [22:47] WaltzingAlong: country ? can you give me an example ? [22:47] The More i use Dolphin the more i HATE it. :) [22:47] then again - i do use some of the more odd features of the Konqueror file manager [22:48] does anybody know how to uninstall strigi === fairman is now known as fairmanm [22:48] AT0M1CB0MB3R, sudo apt-get remove strigi [22:48] Dr_willis_: thank you for the guide === fairmanm is now known as fairman [22:48] !info strigi [22:48] Package strigi does not exist in gutsy [22:48] if we can find the RIGHT package name. :) [22:48] !find strigi [22:48] Found: libstrigihtmlgui-dev, libstrigihtmlgui0, libstrigiqtdbusclient-dev, libstrigiqtdbusclient0, strigi-applet (and 5 others) [22:48] Dr_willis_: Dolphin is one big bug on my gutsy install [22:48] I don't like that dolphin doesn't use tabs :-/ [22:48] Kr4t05: I do like dolphin a lot and I really would love to use it, but I'm so used to used to just type ftp://, fish:// and always have a multitude of tabs open [22:49] I updated my kubuntu to Gutsy yesterday, and it errored out at around 75% due to problems with installing nvivia-glx. Is there any way to check which packages got purged / not updated so taht I can be sure that my system is complete? I found no defects until now. Or should I do a clean install after something like this? [22:49] Hey, i am running Gutsy and I just tried to install CompizFusion. This is the error message I got: sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-kde [22:49] hi, I installed compiz fusion into kubuntu gutsy and a white border line appear in context menu, somone had the same problem?

[22:52] peopld told me compiz was better than beryl. [22:52] edenbeast: what was better in beryl? [22:52] They were 99.5% identical anyway [22:52] h3sp4wn: yea, but i have some packages taht are not qiuet three, nvidia-driver doesn't work, but there are no further defects and it tells me i have the latest version of all packages, despite erroring out at 75% [22:52] how can set brightness-contrast? [22:52] Nobody can give me a straight answer that works. Why is everyting so complicate? Why can't you just INSTALL A PROGRAM? LOL How do i install Compiz on Kubuntu Gutsy [22:53] John117: use adept [22:53] John117: I can install a program [22:53] John117, you havent followed that compiz url yet yave ya? [22:53] i've got small fonts in all application afte update to gusty. how can i fix this? [22:53] it tells you what you need to install. [22:53] what compiz url?

And am getting an error message. I posted the error message here when i entered. did anybody see it? [22:54] Garnam: I read it as that are not quiet there [22:54] the configuration manager you got with beryl was awesome [22:54] Everybody says follow the link.. read the instructions.. but the instructions never work. [22:54] 3 years ago, linux is free it's stable it is customizable it is flexible, now "OOOOHH, spinning cube .... gimme!!" ;) [22:54] ccsm is a horror [22:54] John117, i dident see an erorr message - i saw your 'apt-get install line' [22:54] I just installed this version of kubuntu yesterday. I've done nothing with it. [22:55] bascule: But me love spinning cube!

[22:56] bascule: Yeah, I was on Linux before Compiz and Beryl were even invented... ;) [22:56] Dr_willis_: i only use one desktop :] [22:56] AmyRose: and me, rpm hell and all [22:56] i get "E: The package list or status file could not be parsed or opened." when running apt-get update to update apt on a local repo. why is it saying that? [22:56] DR_WILLIS hey.. was my probblem that adept was open on the desktop while i was tyring to do it? [22:56] hey ScorpKing :] [22:56] if compiz would not make resizing of windows so uber-slow, i would might even use it :p [22:56] :D hiya! [22:56] h3sp4wn: oh, in xorg.con there is nvidia as driver, but glxgears gives me "Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display", thes shouldn't be possible, or is nv taken as silent fallback now? [22:56] John117, ONLY one 'installer' application can be running at a time.. so YES that was your pboelm [22:57] bug kde4 will make compiz obsolete hopefully.. [22:57] dr_wallis thank you, sir. [22:57] moofoo, i Hope so. :) [22:57] moofoo: Bug? [22:57] Garnam: I don't know how that bit works but I believe that bulletproof X spec was implimented [22:57] Garnam: is sources.list listing gutsy ? [22:58] AmyRose: s/bug/but/ :) [22:58] Garnam: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade (see what aptitude says I don't trust any other program for major upgrades) [22:58] hey all. Launchpad is confusing as heck to me.... Where should I go to file a KDE4 packaging (I think) bug? [22:58] dr_willis_ i'm getting more errors. [22:58] wolfger: It is to me also [22:58] dr_willis_ talking about packages with unmet dependancies. [22:59] Anyone know whether the launchpad integration for reportbug or reportbug-ng was completed [22:59] but perhaps the new shiny thing can bring enough interest (users) to gnu/linux that more interest is placed there [22:59] wolfger: The easiest way to figure this out is to go to packages.ubuntu.com, find the package you want to report a bug on, go to its page, and go to the bug finding link at the bottom of the page [22:59] sure [22:59] also what about the /etc/event.d stuff that was supposed to replace init.d completely by edgy+2 [22:59] thanks, AmyRose [22:59] wolfger: Then if you need to report a new bug, just click Report a Bug or something like that [22:59] What is going to bring more users to gnu/linux is making this stuff easier to install. [23:00] John117, do an 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' then try installing the packages again. [23:00] h3sp4wn: Adept says Gutsy all the way. I thaught bulletproof X spec is only in use for Gnome and gdm for now, nor kdm. [23:00] it doesn't come easier than this really :-) [23:00] Hi all, i just installed Gutsy (again) im newish to linux played to much and broke it :) oh well... But now that i have reinstalled the update manager keeps telling me that i havent got the latest version :S any ideas??? [23:00] WaltzingAlong: I totally accept that we needed some sort of killer app/feature to grab peoples attention, it's just that so many care of nothing else ... [23:00] but compiz isn't really a trivial thing [23:00] John117: i doubt so many were held back by how hard things were to install but certainly some were; having neat things to do with it would bring yet others [23:00] Garnam: I have no idea how it was implimented or not implimented [23:00] Oakbox: I think that's a known bug [23:00] when i start my comp, i have a kio kthumbnail process that uses ~80% cpu and mem. why? I kill it, but next time it is the same [23:00] it would be comparable to replacing gdi+ and gdi on a windows pc I guess [23:00] bascule: so when we get them here to show them the rest of the show, that is the trick i suppose [23:01] yeah, I suppose :) [23:01] AmyRose: ok as long as its not me doing something wrong :) ta muchly [23:01] hi [23:01] bascule: amarok is good enough for that as the killer application [23:01] but honestly it doesn't get better than apt-get install and after a while it's just there :-) [23:02] algum brasileiro? [23:02] h3sp4wn: yeah i converted 4 people prior to compiz with amarok, about 10 since ... :) [23:02] i know of no one coming to gnu/linux based on the audio player [23:02] !br | marcondes [23:02] marcondes: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português.

[23:02] I switched to kde because of it :P [23:02] perdao a muito tempo que nao uso irc. e to meio perdido [23:02] when i start my comp, i have a kio kthumbnail process that uses ~80% cpu and mem. why? I kill it, but next time it is the same [23:02] hola me llamo mario y vivo en panama y soy de colombia [23:03] bascule: I have got rid of linux on my mainpc - zfs is worth the extra hassle it causes for everything else for me [23:03] that and kde printing [23:03] nem lembro mais os comandos [23:03] h3sp4wn: But it's getting ported to Windoze, huh?

[23:09] Dr_willis_: i did that before you said it [23:09] h3sp4wn: thanks [23:09] waltzingalong why does the tutorial not fricking say that? [23:09] RichardBH: because they don't have the same emoticons installed [23:09] h3sp4wn: hm, ok, there are some packages missing, but he wants to uninstall too many packages. There is no way I'm going to let him unistall things like tetex-base, any way to exclude some packages?

[23:11] waltzingalong thank you. I made that change and i'm updating again. Well try again and i'm sure I"ll have MORE PROBLEMS.

[23:26] hi... is there any chance to get back to feistys alt-tab behaviour in gutsy? [23:26] John117: open adept, go to Adept > Manage Repositories and enable the ones on the 1st tab [23:26] I have the wireless working using the restricted drivers manager [23:27] edenbest when where do i get more update instructions? I ask a question and you people send me an automated response from obutu and then i follow it and you say "it should be this" or "that's not right" [23:27] the only thing is that the networks do no appear [23:27] he typed compiz instead of compiz-core [23:27] tysonsw: you do not need to be 'root' but you should open the file with kate using kdesu so like i mentioned, kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list but this assumed that the user account you are using is in the 'admin' group [23:27] edenbeast: "compiz" is the package [23:27] john117 you have to type compiz-core instead of the first compiz :-) [23:27] BloodyTux: i'm trying to use my local repo.

[23:28] WaltzingAlong I am the only account on this computer === charles is now known as caboose_1980 [23:28] BloodyTux: :P [23:28] John117: really the frustration may not be worth compiz-fusion in kde 3.5.8. my suggestion is to play with compiz-fusion in gnome but come back to kde with kde4 when those types of effects will be included [23:28] ScorpKing: Umm... I got no clue ^.^ Never tried anything like that xD [23:28] lol [23:28] stdin there is nothing on the "first tab" [23:28] edenbeast: the line he pus installs all the compiz packages and compiz-kde [23:28] tysonsw when i rightklick on the file and ses who the owner is.. it says that root is owner and root group [23:29] WaltzingAlong when i rightklick on the file and ses who the owner is.. it says that root is owner and root group [23:29] John117: What's going on?

[23:30] tysonsw: you should leave the file set as owned by user root and group root. but you can get 'root'-like access to it through the command kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list which you can start with alt+f2 [23:30] John117: http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/8648/cap3jf4.png < like that [23:30] bloodytux it's everything. I ask "how do you install xxxxx" and i get a reply from "ubotu" I follow the instructions and there are erros. [23:30] can i configure alt-tab (walk through windows) to work the same way it did in feisty (and also on macosx and windows) in gutsy? [23:31] WaltzingAlong yes.. and then I try to change the file. but it says that I don't have write privi on it.. [23:31] John117: Ouch. What are you trying to install? [23:31] I want my sons account to have only "read only" access to all external devices. how do I do this in Gutsy? [23:31] WaltzingAlong when I do what you say.. it only gives me a empty document [23:31] dvayanu: kmenu/system settings/window behavior?

[23:32] John117: yes, it should work now you've enabled those repositories [23:32] dr_wallis gutsy [23:32] Atomguy: Ya, what's up? [23:32] compiz is a very complex and detailed set of tools that have to work just right. its also VERY much a work in progreess.. [23:32] stdin try again... [23:32] John117: make sure you close adept before you try apt-get [23:32] h3sp4wn: Ah ok, this looks more like the new version of KDE, thanks. And automount of USB-Sticks now works, too. (But it disables my keyboard if any USB-Stick is mounted, not in the mood to look after this right now... ) [23:32] John117, this was a clean install? or a upgrade? [23:33] tysonsw: so there you have it. an empty document. does kate show in the title sources.list? if so, put the following as its own line then close kate (save the file): deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy main restricted universe multiverse [23:33] waltzingalong: great thanx! show window list was the option... if its unset the order is broken, weird :-) but works now [23:33] dvayanu: great! :D [23:33] dr_willis_ clean [23:33] hey, how can I check my disk usage? [23:33] can't find my partition in konqueror [23:33] stdin no good.. now it says its locked again as though adept were open.. which it is not. [23:34] waltzingalong: is there somewhere a list of changes to default settings? :-) edgy--> feisty was great, feisty-gutsy everything changed [23:34] I mean under /media [23:34] how do i upgrade to gutsy through the alternate cd [23:34] anyone know how to give an account, read only access to all external devices? [23:34] ? [23:34] stdin adept is closed [23:34] dvayanu: i usually give kpersonalizer a run to set some quick defaults but then customize from there [23:34] John117: ok, try "sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock" to unlock it [23:34] vbgunz, i think you might have to mess with the groups for that kind of controll. [23:35] Dr_willis, thats the thing, my son is only in his group... I can never get the "apply" button to light up on user controls. I think it may be broken :( [23:35] WaltzingAlong but if I have feisty then??

[23:36] WaltzingAlong now I am in http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/ [23:36] Where can I check how much free space I have on my partition? I don't see it under /media [23:36] stdin there must be something wrong. [23:37] Schuenemann: df -h [23:37] John117: unless something disabled those sources, or possible if you install with no network connection [23:37] John117 [23:37] ... [23:37] Schuenemann: or df -h . [23:37] WaltzingAlong: thanks :) [23:37] WaltzingAlong, can I check that graphically too, as I can with my other partitions? [23:37] John117: It's me.. Muahahahaha. I agree with stdin, it might be that a program you installed unchecked them. [23:37] stdin I did install with no network connection.. it took me 2 days to get the network working.. holy crap this is so complicated.. no such thing as plug and play with ubuntu. LOL [23:37] yo [23:37] XD [23:37] vbgunz what kind of devices are you talking about? usb-keys and such? [23:38] John117, i found it all plug and play. [23:38] You're just realizing this John? [23:38] edenbeast: yes [23:38] Anyone gotten a (K)ubuntu 7.04 or 7.10 machine to join an ADS domain? [23:38] dr_willis_ i wish.. from my atheros wirless card to my ati video card. NOTHING has worked out of the box. [23:38] vbgunz then adapting /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/20-storage-methods.fdi may do the trick [23:38] Pluged in a scanner today and it saw it right off. no drivers needed at all. same for my 3 printers. :) [23:38] vbgunz look for [23:38] vbgunz vfat or something, 1 sec [23:38] John117: if you install with no network connection it disabled the network repositories, or it would try to connect to a non-existent network and fail [23:38] John117, blame ati , and the wiureless card makers for their lousy linux support. [23:39] WaltzingAlong so now that I have regenrated a source.list.. should I delete the old one.. and rename and save the new one in /etc/apr/??? [23:39] ati is promising to get better.. but so far.. nothing [23:39] Schuenemann: without the . you will see them all. to see that graphically? right mouse clicking on a folder in konqueror should do it on the properties tab [23:39] okay.. well the last command is done.. gotta go for now though.. be back later. [23:39] tysonsw: sure you could do that [23:39] hmm something is wrong with kopete and hotmail accounts [23:39] waltzingalong: thanx once more [23:39] thanks fo ryour help all! i'll either learn this ubuntu shit or die trying. [23:39] John117: linux distros usually don't have the "persuasive" power to make hardware vendors support their platform like a certain other company has.

I am a bit lost :( [23:44] IkeKrull: yes [23:44] how i set the command nvidia-settings --load-config-only" at startup of kde [23:45] BrightEyes`: apparently, there is already somethin mounted at thes place. Where do you get this message? [23:45] WaltzingAlong: would you be willing to share this information? [23:45] IkeKrull: http://sathyasays.com/?p=23 but with konqueror instead of dolphin [23:45] BrightEyes`: i think it means that you have something mounted to /media/hda3 already... [23:45] ah right, cool [23:45] thanks [23:46] WaltzingAlong: it stil don't work.. it wont change the content [23:46] any eta on a kopete-fix?

[23:48] Oakbox: it crashes on connection to msn [23:48] 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) [23:49] carwash^: WaltzingAlong is too quick for me again [23:49] :P shipping 7.10 with this bug is huge :( [23:49] WaltzingAlong now it works.. the name wasn't sourse.. it was sourses.. so now it worked :P thanks fo the help :P while I am on it.. what does kate do? [23:50] edits texy [23:50] text [23:50] tex [23:50] Oakbox, compiz should be rather easy to disable. [23:50] vbgunz: if they are whole partitions, you can mount them with ro (read only) in /etc/fstab (instead of defult), otherwise, chown the whole thing to root and chmod -R 71 [23:50] tysonsw: kate is a (line) text editor [23:50] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion [23:51] vbgunz: aä, chmod -R 744 ./* in the base directory [23:51] Oakbox, thers a setting file you can make that will stop it from running also. (i forget where that is however) :) [23:51] im asking questions all day and noone helped me [23:51] Anyone been able to join ubuntu 7.04 or 7.10 as an ADS member server using net ads join and not net rpc join?

[23:52] Dr_willis_: ta for that, i just dont know if i should attempt it again :D [23:52] disable* [23:52] tysonsw: should be able to do so. check !wifi to see about configuring it [23:52] BrightEyes`: console at sudo mount? If yes, i assume the spot is already occupied [23:52] Oakbox, how it stands now. To enable compiz with kde. you must make an 'Autostart' entry for it. [23:52] Oakbox, or manually start it. [23:53] WaltzingAlong does not work.. [23:53] !wifi | tysonsw [23:53] tysonsw: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [23:53] andreas: i want to configure my grub to boot windows.i was using kubuntu for 6 months now and i decided to install windows again.i installed it then somehow installed grub again but there were no entries for windows.what can i do [23:53] Dr_willis_: sorry not that savy whats an Autostart :S [23:53] Oakbox, .kde/Autostart [23:53] Oakbox: ~/.kde/Autostart === charles is now known as snoopcatxl [23:53] thank will have a look :) [23:53] Oakbox, just a directory of commands/scripts that get ran at login [23:54] Oakbox, proberly better to just manually start compiz Untill you decide if you like it [23:54] !grub | BrightEyes` [23:54] BrightEyes`: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [23:54] Oakbox: alternately, you can install compiz-fusion-icon and symlink that to ~/.kde/Autostart. That will start up the system tray icon which allows you to switch decorators, etc [23:54] WaltzingAlong: i tried that thing with the live cd. IT DOESNT WORK! [23:54] BrightEyes`, if your windows install was on hda1 (first HD, first partition) therens an example grub menu entry commented out in the menu.lst you can just uncomment it. [23:54] aah too much to take in hehe. [23:55] WaltzingAlong: how many times should i try those things [23:55] !info compiz-fusion-icon [23:55] Package compiz-fusion-icon does not exist in gutsy [23:55] anyone got the link for the CD cover artwork for Kubuntu Gutsy, Im running of a batch of CD/DVD's [23:55] !find fusion [23:55] how has gutsy been coming along [23:55] Found: compiz-fusion-plugins-extra, compiz-fusion-plugins-main, libfusionsound-0.9-25, libfusionsound-dev, libfusionsound-doc [23:55] Dr_willis_: windows is on hda3 (hd0,2) [23:55] BrightEyes`: ask google 'boot to windows from grub' or something similar [23:55] is it more or less safe to upgrade? [23:55] has the dust settled? [23:55] hi there... [23:56] the local update server here in AU are still very sluggish [23:56] BrightEyes`, then uncomment the example and change that hd0,0 to be hd0,2 HOWEVER - windows may not like not being on the drive [23:56] how can i download IPTraf? [23:56] BrightEyes`, ive had issues with windows when its not on the first partition. [23:56] !find iptraf [23:56] Found: iptraf [23:56] Dr_willis_: I believe I got CF-icon from getdeb.com or from the forums.
