| ubotu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 00:00 |
| Mace68 | hmmm... | 00:02 |

| Mace68 | worth a shot lol | 00:03 |
| sven_ | Is there anything known about adept manager crashing your X server when installing software? this has happened to me various times already.. | 00:03 |
| Thylio | Yeah me to. been getting it alot latly | 00:03 |
| sven_ | adept downloads the software, and in the moment its starts the installation, BOOOOM, X restarts to the login screen | 00:03 |
| sven_ | then I try it again with the same software, and there is no problem at all.. it just installs ok | 00:04 |
| sven_ | Thylio, anything to fix that? | 00:04 |
| galorin | apt-get on the command line? | 00:05 |
| Thylio | No srry, havent gotten that noob just jet | 00:05 |
| Thylio | Ment neerd | 00:06 |
| Thylio | I also have another problem, when i try to install somthing, i get a message saing that the packagemanger has failed to download, or the files cant open properly. | 00:08 |
| level1_ | Hi, I got gutsy when it was in beta and have been upgrading it... when gutsy came out officially, adept started asking me to upgrade (to gutsy?)... should I run the update manager | 00:10 |
| === danix is now known as danix_ | ||
| === danix_ is now known as danix | ||
| Angelus | no level1_ it's a bug | 00:11 |
| stdin | level1_: you can, it'll do no harm. but you are already on gutsy (it's a known bug that it still asks) | 00:11 |
| Angelus | an adept bug | 00:11 |
| Angelus | i doubt its an adept bug do | 00:12 |
| level1_ | okay, good | 00:12 |
| Angelus | i think its a gutsy bug | 00:12 |
| stdin | if you enable gutsy-proposed you'll get the update | 00:12 |
| Thylio | It usualy just shutdown under updating anyways | 00:12 |
| Angelus | cause no website/program detects gutsy | 00:12 |
| sub[t]rnl | huh? | 00:12 |
| sub[t]rnl | my nmap sure does | 00:12 |
| Angelus | means, | 00:12 |
| Angelus | if you go to frostwire.com for example | 00:13 |
| Angelus | it will not give you the ubuntu download automatically like it used to do on feisty | 00:13 |
| stdin | that's up to frostwire.com. nothing we can do | 00:13 |
| sub[t]rnl | whats that have to do with the adept bug? | 00:13 |
| barbaros | i just want to thank all kubuntu developper sincerely | 00:13 |
| Thylio | About forstwire, i cant install it, beacause i dont have Java, But when i try so install java in adept, i just get a failure message! | 00:14 |
| barbaros | good job really :) | 00:14 |
| stdin | barbaros: tell them in #kubuntu-devel that's where they hang out :) | 00:14 |
| Angelus | Thylio: its not a failure masage , its you not accepting java's licence agrement | 00:15 |
| ubuntu_ | Does anyone have an idea why iwconfig will stop working after wpa_supplicant is used and closed? NDISwrapper driver. Once wpa_supplicant closes, the data in iwconfig "locks" and I suddenly can't set anything like SSID or frequency, and threfore I can't associate. WPA supplicant still works, so it's not broken. The only way to fix it is to reload the ndiswrapper driver. | 00:15 |
| Thylio | Angelus; The thing is, i do accept the licence. I press "I agree" every time i try. | 00:16 |
| ubuntu_ | no errors in any log files that i know of, "set essid" shows up in iwevent, etc | 00:16 |
| ubuntu_ | but i can't change anything | 00:16 |
| Thylio | Angelus: Do u think its bether if i install java in konsole | 00:17 |
| sub[t]rnl | ndiswrapper has some limitations that a manufacturer driver goes around, such as setting your iwconfig to monitor mode. Not sure Thylio but I ran across someone with a similiar problem on a forum | 00:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | see if I can dig it up | 00:18 |
| ubuntu_ | iwconfig works befire I start up wpa supplicant, so it doesn't shut it off at the start | 00:18 |
| Angelus | Thylio: go to adept , and there's a package called , "kubuntu-restrected-extras" something like that, just search for kubuntu it will pop it out. install it, it will install java | 00:19 |
| Thylio | Angelus: Okay | 00:19 |
| Angelus | :) | 00:20 |
| ubuntu_ | on a related note, iwlist scan doesn't update at all | 00:20 |
| Angelus | finaly, some seeders on the dvd torrent! | 00:20 |
| Thylio | !apfix | 00:20 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about apfix - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:20 |
| Angelus | 300+kB/s , nice | 00:20 |
| Thylio | !aptfix | 00:20 |
| ubotu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 00:20 |
| ubuntu_ | if it were in monitor mode, i would think that would still work | 00:20 |
| ubuntu_ | I have to go for a few minutes. | 00:22 |
| Thylio | I still got problem while downloading package! | 00:24 |
| Angelus | :o | 00:24 |
| Angelus | format? | 00:24 |
| Angelus | LoL | 00:24 |
| Thylio | no please | 00:25 |
| Angelus | it's fun | 00:25 |
| Angelus | i formated 5times 2days ago | 00:26 |
| Thylio | No, i hate it. Only got a 40gig harddrive, so i dont bother to partition my hdd. | 00:26 |
| Thylio | Jeez, xmms went offline to -.- | 00:27 |
| Angelus | :D | 00:28 |
| Angelus | you're pc is getting evil | 00:29 |
| Angelus | tried to reboot? | 00:29 |
| Thylio | Well, school in 5houres, i'm guessing ill be back tomorrow with new problems. | 00:29 |
| Ngo | Is there a way to use key sequences to switch keyboard layouts in kubuntu? | 00:29 |
| Thylio | Tomorrow is a new day! Maybe it's fixed by then:) | 00:30 |
| ubuntu_ | Any ideas on my ndiswrapper roblem? | 00:30 |
| ubuntu_ | there are a few computers around with the same wireless cards and they do fine | 00:31 |
| andresj | hi, I am currently upgrading my system from Feisty to Gutsy, but it threw me an error. something about debconf not being able to install, "segmentation fault". Then there was an error installing the next two packages, and now it's stalled on zlib1g-dev. any thoughts? | 00:31 |
| andresj | apparently, I'm not the only one with this problem: www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg516806.html | 00:33 |
| Angelus | somebody knows how to edit the livedvd/livecd boot up script from an iso image? i wanna stop a program from runing on startup | 00:34 |
| === serge is now known as ForeverZero | ||
| andresj | anybody? | 00:37 |
| andresj | i want to cancel it, but then it would render my computer "unusable"... | 00:37 |
| fluffman | andresj: you'll probably have to cancel | 00:38 |
| fluffman | and install from the CD | 00:38 |
| andresj | mm... what about my data? | 00:38 |
| andresj | is there an option in the cd to upgrade | 00:38 |
| ubuntu_ | what kind of vital information do you have on it? you can mount your HD fro mthe livecd | 00:38 |
| andresj | ? | 00:39 |
| ubuntu_ | and copy anything to a sub | 00:39 |
| ubuntu_ | usb | 00:39 |
| andresj | well, I doubt I can copy all my files to an usb of 2GB... | 00:39 |
| fluffman | the live cd comes with K3B | 00:39 |
| fluffman | and NTFS write support | 00:40 |
| ubuntu_ | do you have another computer that you can transfer files over to? | 00:40 |
| fluffman | so you can burn a DVD or backup to an external HDD | 00:40 |
| andresj | mm... yes, but it doesn't have that much space, either. | 00:40 |
| andresj | I might be able to repartition the disk | 00:40 |
| andresj | and use a new partition to install gutsy... | 00:40 |
| fluffman | yeah if you have enough room that would def. work | 00:40 |
| andresj | let me see... `kdf` | 00:41 |
| andresj | how can i see how much space do i have? | 00:41 |
| andresj | kinfocenter crashes after i click on anything, and kdf is not installed... | 00:42 |
| makuseru | is there anyway to turn a .swf (just a flash movie not a flash game or anything, into some other video format? | 00:42 |
| fluffman | andresj: open konqueror | 00:42 |
| fluffman | to your root directory | 00:42 |
| fluffman | and it should tell you along the bottom | 00:42 |
| andresj | fluffman, never mind, i opened gparted :) | 00:42 |
| fluffman | gotcha | 00:42 |
| andresj | wow, ok I have about 4 times available space than what is used | 00:43 |
| andresj | so I guess i'll download the gutsy disk and reinstall... | 00:43 |
| andresj | I was hoping I didn't have to reinstall linux again... (well, to think of it, it's been ~3 months) | 00:43 |
| shukty | hi my question is : i got amule i wonna set a list of ip address to block how can i do it [ ip server list ] tnx | 00:44 |
| andresj | well, thanks fluffman and ubuntu_ | 00:44 |
| dcosson | has anyone had any trouble with usb hard drives automounting since upgrading to gutsy? | 00:48 |
| shukty | i got same probl | 00:48 |
| andresj | dcosson, how did you upgrade to gutsy? (I had to cancel it, because it stalled in the middle) | 00:49 |
| dcosson | andresj: fresh install. automounted fine under feisty | 00:49 |
| dcosson | (using the live cd installer as opposed to the alternate installer. haven't tried the alternate) | 00:50 |
| andresj | oh. ok. I don't know anything about that problem (sorry); I just wanted to see if I didn't _have_ to do a fresh install :) | 00:50 |
| dcosson | ah | 00:50 |
| ubuntu_ | all my flash drives are mounting fine | 00:50 |
| ubuntu_ | I had one problem where I mounted a second HD to copy files before doing a fresh install, and thereafter linux kept trying to mount my flash drive to that mount point | 00:51 |
| ubuntu_ | instead of the normal one, meaning i kept getting permission errors | 00:51 |
| fluffman | you'll need to edit /etc/fstab | 00:52 |
| fluffman | or maybe mtab | 00:52 |
| fluffman | !fstab | 00:52 |
| ubotu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 00:52 |
| ubuntu_ | well i just deleted the mount point because i didn't need it anymore, and that fixed it | 00:52 |
| fluffman | cool | 00:52 |
| dcosson | i hate to say it, but the default ubuntu desktop in gutsy has been easier for me to use, and nicer, than kubuntu | 00:53 |
| Tm_T | I wonder what does current default look | 00:54 |
| dcosson | current default ubuntu has compositing effects enabled by default that were cool and fluid out of the box... the install-restricted-codecs thing when launching proprietary media in totem was handy too | 00:55 |
| ubuntu_ | also, kopete crashes whenever I try to connect to MSN with it | 00:55 |
| dcosson | kaffeine just throws an error when i try to play proprietary media. i mean i know how to do it, it's just that they've made it easier. | 00:56 |
| === andresj_ is now known as andresj | ||
| Tm_T | ubuntu_: really? | 00:58 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: I thought it should do like totem | 00:59 |
| shukty | can i ask where is the path of amule ? | 00:59 |
| dcosson | i hate totem as a media player. but that was cool. | 00:59 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: yes, but I think we should have same ability in KDE side | 01:00 |
| dcosson | i hate gnome in general but i am using it until i can figure out my automounting problem | 01:00 |
| Tm_T | shukty: no idea, never even seen amule | 01:00 |
| fluffman | should swap go at the end of a drive, or the beginning? | 01:00 |
| Tm_T | fluffman: as you like | 01:00 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: what problem? | 01:00 |
| Kr4t05 | fluffman: Doesn't matter. :P | 01:00 |
| fluffman | k | 01:00 |
| fluffman | just wondering | 01:00 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: usb HD does not automount since upgrading to gutsy | 01:01 |
| fluffman | I've always put it at the end, but never really thought about it | 01:01 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: automount when plugging in? | 01:01 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: does under gnome/ubuntu but not under kubuntu | 01:01 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: no, when booting up | 01:01 |
| ubuntu_ | Tm_T yeah, both in my guysy install and the liveCD | 01:01 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: booting up? hmm, thats something I dont know | 01:01 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: if after bootup I unplug the USB and plug it back in, it mounts | 01:01 |
| dcosson | but that's really irritating and gnome does it so until i figure it out i'm living in ubuntu | 01:02 |
| Tm_T | ubuntu_: in gutsy install, go and install kdenetwork-dbg, run kopete from Konsole and pastebin ale traces you get thanks | 01:02 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: have you check your automount settings in KDE yet? | 01:03 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: i glanced over them, everything looked right | 01:03 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: doublecheck | 01:03 |
| dcosson | i'm going to go over to kde and look again :-) | 01:03 |
| shukty | i can t find the folder of .amule is it hidden or ... pls s.o.s. | 01:03 |
| andresj | shutky, how are you looking for it? | 01:04 |
| dcosson | This is a really noob question but I've never really used 2 desktop environments at once... is it possible to go from gnome to kde and have all of my apps stay open? | 01:04 |
| andresj | shukty, how are you looking for it? | 01:04 |
| shukty | i m looking for the location of .amule | 01:04 |

| Tm_T | ubuntu_: just pastebin it and /msg me | 01:05 |
| Angelus | is there a way to stop a program from runing on startup on the livecd/dvd ? | 01:06 |
| Tm_T | if I'm not online, there's nuclear war going on and you shouldnt be in irc | 01:06 |
| ubuntu_ | ok | 01:06 |
| andresj | Angelus, I guess you could creaet a new livecd, modifying that part. there is a guide somewhere... | 01:07 |
| Dragnslcr | ubuntu_- talking about Kopete crashing with MSN? | 01:07 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: yes | 01:07 |
| Dragnslcr | Yeah, it's a known issue | 01:07 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: it is? what bugnumber? | 01:07 |
| Dragnslcr | A lot of people have reported it | 01:07 |
| Angelus | andresj: can you find it for me? al i wanna disable is powernowd, cause it crashes my system and i have to make a forced reboot as soon as it starts | 01:08 |
| Dragnslcr | Let me see if I can find it in the mailing list | 01:08 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: thanks | 01:08 |

| Angelus | andresj: isn't there an easy way to just stop powernowd from runing on startup? like a kernel parametre | 01:11 |
| Dragnslcr | Tm_T- Bug 150913 is the first number I happen to come across | 01:11 |
| aaron_ | ah thanks | 01:11 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: not related | 01:11 |
| ubuntu_ | hmm | 01:12 |
| ubuntu_ | i have 800mb in swap space left but it's saying i'm out of memory | 01:12 |
| ubuntu_ | when trying to install that debug program | 01:13 |

| Dragnslcr | Your keyboard will probably still work | 01:19 |

| Angelus | andresj: editing the dvd/cd looks fun, so i'll give a try using your guide, thanks. | 01:20 |
| andresj | Angelus, no prob. I agree it looks fun, I just didn't have any creative ideas to modify to livecd :) | 01:20 |
| Dragnslcr | If you have a dual-core CPU, pay attention to the default kernel option in grub after you upgrade. It got switched to -386 on me, which doesn't seem to use both cores correctly | 01:20 |
| aaron_ | nah its an old celeron | 01:22 |
| aaron_ | 1.2ghz | 01:22 |
| aaron_ | 'so not that old | 01:22 |
| aaron_ | but DANG does kubuntu run great on it | 01:22 |
| aaron_ | I thought I'd have to go xubuntu...but nope | 01:22 |
| ubuntu_ | do they even make celerons anymore? | 01:25 |
| aaron_ | nah | 01:25 |
| aaron_ | oh wow, changing your time preferences is pretty sweet | 01:25 |
| aaron_ | you can put them in any order you want | 01:26 |

| XenThraL | hum, my overlay seems to crap out after a while, randomly, and when I try to play videos it just shows a green image | 01:26 |
| XenThraL | can only seem to fix it by restarting X | 01:26 |
| ubuntu_ | yeah, the only thing stopping me from switching entirely to kubuntu is the games | 01:27 |

| aaron_ | my macbook pro has os x and vista...and I only really run vista...games again | 01:27 |
| Tm_T | ubuntu_: games? | 01:27 |
| aaron_ | i love team fortress 2...that game is amazing | 01:28 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: remember me? my usb HD needs to show up in fstab if it's going to automount on boot right? | 01:28 |
| ubuntu_ | games made for windows | 01:28 |
| aaron_ | is there a util to monitor bandwidth usage? | 01:28 |
| Dragnslcr | Tm_T- what isn't relevant to what? | 01:28 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: well that might help, though, because its usb, its hotplug, and IMO that would be wrong way to go | 01:28 |
| ubuntu_ | some stuff runs with wine, but many programs have lots of graphical bugs and stuff | 01:28 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: bugreports | 01:28 |
| Dragnslcr | Tm_T- you weren't talking about Kopete crashing? | 01:29 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: yes, but havent seen any relevant report or other information | 01:29 |
| Daisuke_Ido | well, bnr2 took a big ol' dump :\ | 01:29 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: ok... well, i don't get it... in the drive properties, automount is checked... the drive is there but it won't show up on the desktop unless i unplug/replug or manually go to /media/sdb1/ | 01:30 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it hangs on deleting expired messages | 01:30 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: hmm, interesting | 01:30 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: I wonder if you like to have script doing that on login | 01:30 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: yeah, that would work, but it's not the root problem, and it will irritate me lol | 01:31 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: if its seamless? ;) | 01:31 |
| dcosson | lol | 01:31 |
| dcosson | it just bugs me that this worked perfectly under feisty | 01:31 |
| Tm_T | well thats weird | 01:32 |
| Tm_T | but doh | 01:32 |
| Tm_T | dcosson: anyone can verify it happens in other systems too? | 01:32 |
| dcosson | i haven't really run into anyone that can. I have a feeling it's my problem, probably... i just can't figure it out | 01:33 |
| Daisuke_Ido | man, i don't want to give up bnr2 :( | 01:33 |
| BrightEyes` | any ways for watching wmv videos in kubuntu 7.10? | 01:33 |
| dcosson | Tm_T: another weird thing, the drive is now located at /media/sdb1/ ... under feisty it was at /media/YURI/ (the name i gave the drive :-)) | 01:33 |

| louis | how do you install compiz in kubuntu? | 01:36 |
| Daisuke_Ido | !compiz | louis | 01:37 |
| ubotu | louis: 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 - further help in #compiz-fusion | 01:37 |
| ubuntu_ | out of curiosity, why doesn't it come installed? | 01:38 |
| louis | thankyou | 01:38 |
| jamaur | anyone know what package I have to install to get the c function man pages? | 01:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ubuntu_: because it still doesn't integrate as well with kde as with gnome, and because, let's face it, until hardy is released kubuntu will continue to be ubuntu's geeky unpopular slightly neurotic little sister | 01:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | then come 8.04, she blossoms and becomes more popular than her big brother could have ever dreamed! | 01:43 |
| Daisuke_Ido | at least, that's the plan... | 01:43 |
| Dragnslcr | What's happening in 8.04? | 01:44 |
| ubuntu__ | how can i resize my existing partition? I am in the livecd now and I am trying to use qparted but the resize option is greyed out | 01:45 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: what exactly youre asking? | 01:45 |
| Dragnslcr | Tm_T- whatever Daisuke_Ido was saying | 01:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Dragnslcr: a lot of the areas where kubuntu's falling behind are being caught up | 01:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | like printing, and... i don't remember what else, let me get the list | 01:46 |
| Dragnslcr | Cool | 01:46 |
| Tm_T | Daisuke_Ido: yup yup | 01:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuHardyCatchup | 01:46 |
| Tm_T | Dragnslcr: shortly said: progress! | 01:46 |

| code_x | thanks | 01:48 |
| Dragnslcr | Of course I think I've learned my lesson not to get another bluetooth keyboard/mouse | 01:48 |
| ubuntu__ | can anyone help me with my partition question above? | 01:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i'm definitely getting a bluetooth mouse for my laptop | 01:48 |
| * Tm_T needs bluetooth keyboard | 01:49 | |
| Tm_T | small size thank you | 01:49 |
| Dragnslcr | The biggest problem is that I can't use my keyboard/mouse during boot | 01:49 |
| Daisuke_Ido | hmm... qtparted won't let you resize :\ | 01:49 |
| Dragnslcr | Which of course wouldn't be a problem for a laptop | 01:49 |
| ubuntu__ | Daisuke_Ido: do you know of a program that can? | 01:50 |
| ubuntu_ | Daisuke_Ido: I resized this computer's HD not an hour ago with qparted. | 01:50 |
| BrightEyes` | any ways for watching wmv videos in kubuntu 7.10? | 01:52 |
| ubuntu__ | ubuntu__: what format type was it??? it seems that my issue is that my partition is etx3 | 01:52 |
| ubuntu__ | er ext3 | 01:52 |
| ubuntu_ | it was ntfs, but 've moved ext3 with it before | 01:52 |
| Daisuke_Ido | uh | 01:53 |
| ubuntu_ | is the partiion mounted? | 01:53 |
| Daisuke_Ido | resize ntfs with qtparted? | 01:53 |
| Daisuke_Ido | never thought i'd hear that one | 01:53 |
| Dragnslcr | Looks like my printer is working again. | 01:53 |
| ubuntu_ | well I just did it | 01:53 |

| ubuntu_ | ubuntu__:does it have a mount point but is disabled? | 01:54 |
| ubuntu__ | ubuntu_: how would I check? | 01:55 |
| Daisuke_Ido | you're... trying to compile a kernel? | 01:55 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i'm guessing | 01:55 |
| ubuntu_ | in kubuntu, K menu->system settings->advanced->disk and file systems | 01:56 |
| Angelus | Daisuke_Ido: i already compiled, i am recompiling it with the squashfs module | 01:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | umm... dunno what to tell you | 01:57 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it certainly doesn't look happy | 01:57 |
| ubuntu_ | make sure the "mount point" for the partition you're trying to move is blank and there is no "enabled" or "disabled" | 01:57 |
| Angelus | Daisuke_Ido: i really need squashfs so i can edit an iso livecd image | 01:57 |
| ubuntu__ | ubuntu_: ok there is no mount point and it is not "enabled" | 01:58 |
| ubuntu_ | then it's beyond my skill level | 01:59 |
| ubuntu_ | sorry | 01:59 |
| ubuntu__ | surely there must be another program other than qparted that can resize a ext3 partition? | 02:00 |
| ubuntu_ | you could download gparted i guess | 02:01 |
| ubuntu_ | it's a standalone livecd | 02:01 |
| ubuntu__ | ubuntu_: hummm adept installer can not find gparted | 02:02 |
| ubuntu__ | ubuntu_: nevermind... i found it | 02:03 |
| ubuntu_ | yeah, it's not a part of ubuntu | 02:04 |
| ubuntu_ | the one I'm thinking of isn't at least | 02:04 |
| Angelus | is there some kubuntu kernel that supports squashfs ? :S | 02:05 |

| cdxx | yea i used it | 02:17 |

| at0m1cb0mb3r | vbgunz_: in konsole i think its "konsole --version" | 02:35 |

| BigDaddy | NickPresta: I had some settings too high, so far it seems to be working. | 02:54 |
| BigDaddy | NickPresta: If I ping out on here, you'll know why | 02:54 |
| Dragnslcr | kristen- depends on your graphics card. I just upgraded a laptop and it set the driver in xorg.conf to i810 instead of intel | 02:54 |
| NickPresta | BigDaddy, heh, okay. | 02:54 |
| BigDaddy | While I am testing the connection, anyone here know a good place for fonts? My windows fonts don't look that great so I want to browse for some linux fonts. | 02:55 |
| BigDaddy | Hopefully that makes sense | 02:55 |
| kristen | Dragnslcr: ATI x1400. And I mean something more fundamental than the xorg.conf. For some reason glxinfo | grep OpenGL says OpenGL vendor string Mesa, when fglrxinfo reports the ATI driver. I just can't get the dang thing to work. | 02:56 |

| NickPresta | vbgunz_, you may want to check out hdparm (`man hdparm`) although I'm sure there are some sort of graphical tools available, if you prefer that. | 03:02 |
| Jucato | BigDaddy: on KDE, icons on toolbars like that have other option, you have to click an hold | 03:03 |

| NickPresta | vbgunz_, actually, the package `linhdd` looks like it would provide a GTK frontend to hdparm if you want to try that | 03:03 |

| [ifr0g] | there are already drivers for it in the repos. | 03:09 |
| cdxx | its what nvidia gives you off their site | 03:09 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: Is there a reason you're using the nvidia installer rather than your package manager for nvidia drivers? | 03:10 |
| cdxx | i need this legacy driver and non other will work. | 03:10 |
| cdxx | no reason | 03:10 |
| cdxx | yo know a better way please enlighten me | 03:10 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: You realise that you're going to have to reinstall the nvidia drivers manually everytime your kernel gets updated | 03:10 |
| BigDaddy | NickPresta: I'd say that the KTorrent is fixed. Thanks for the help on that | 03:10 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: The package manager can install the nvidia legacy driver | 03:11 |
| cdxx | show me how | 03:11 |
| [ifr0g] | cdxx, nvidia-linux.x86-96*-pkg1.run --uninstall will remove it. but after you finish with arcade | 03:11 |
| [ifr0g] | ardchoille* | 03:11 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: Which card do you have? | 03:11 |
| cdxx | nvidia quadro fx 700 | 03:11 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: Quadro FX 700 is listed for the regular driver, not the legacy driver | 03:12 |
| cdxx | when i try the regular diver | 03:13 |
| cdxx | it says it cant use it and gives me a weblink to this one | 03:13 |
| cdxx | http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_x86_96.43.01.html | 03:13 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: And how did you install that driver? | 03:13 |
| cdxx | sudo sh NVIDIA | 03:13 |
| damentz | hey guys, trying kubuntu today | 03:15 |
| damentz | better than the previous releases so far :) | 03:15 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: open a terminal and type: apt-cache policy linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` | 03:15 |
| cdxx | --remove invalid command line | 03:15 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: Tell me if it's installed | 03:15 |
| cdxx | i installed it | 03:15 |
| cdxx | it said it installed completely | 03:15 |
| ardchoille | ok, but you installed the nvidia driver via the nvidia installer? | 03:16 |
| cdxx | yes | 03:16 |
| cdxx | and before it was don it said... | 03:16 |
| cdxx | if X FAILS TO find the nvidia X driver module, please install the 'pkg-config' utility and the x.org SDK/DEVElopement package fo ryour distro and reinstall the driver. | 03:16 |
| [ifr0g] | damentz, yup, It blows :) | 03:16 |
| cdxx | i installed those | 03:16 |
| kristen | Does anyone know what this error means? libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable failed | 03:16 |
| cdxx | now im either gonna jsut run the installer again | 03:16 |
| ardchoille | I have no idea how to uninstall the nvidia driver if you used the nvidia installer, but I do know that you need to current driver for that card, not the legacy driver. | 03:17 |
| cdxx | but i want to know how to delete the current non working install | 03:17 |
| damentz | [ifr0g]: well, i updated via apt-get, and for some reason i don't have desktop icons anymore | 03:17 |
| cdxx | well | 03:17 |
| cdxx | why | 03:17 |
| [ifr0g] | kristen, where did you get that ? | 03:17 |
| cdxx | if i try try the current driver does it stop me and link me to this site | 03:17 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: because the nvidia site says you need to current driver for that card, not the legacy driver. | 03:17 |
| cdxx | and why did this driver work for it in solaris | 03:17 |
| cdxx | your wrong | 03:17 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: I'm not wrong, I read the nvidia webpage. | 03:18 |
| cdxx | nvidia is wrong | 03:18 |
| cdxx | therefor you are wrong | 03:18 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: hahaha | 03:18 |
| kristen | [ifr0g] glxinfo said direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) and expore LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose gave that error in it's place >_> | 03:18 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: You're on your own | 03:18 |
| [ifr0g] | damentz, right-click (dexktop) > Behavior (tab) > Show Icons on desktop (TICK) | 03:18 |
| [ifr0g] | kristen, What graphic card ? | 03:18 |
| damentz | [ifr0g]: ya, its there | 03:18 |
| damentz | not even any media drives are showing up | 03:19 |
| kristen | [ifr0g] ATI x1400 | 03:19 |
| damentz | it may be this nvidia driver i got through envy | 03:19 |
| cdxx | just stfu if ur just gonna read me verbatim from the nvidia page ardchoille | 03:19 |

| ubotu | cdxx: The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/ | 03:19 |
| [ifr0g] | damentz, Try creating a new user and login with it. | 03:19 |
| cdxx | if you dont know how to uninstall it just say so or dont say anythign at all | 03:19 |
| [ifr0g] | kristen, Did you install the drivers ? | 03:19 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: If you had installed it properly, it would be working right now. | 03:20 |
| kristen | [ifr0g] Yes. Many times. 8.42.3 was going molasses slow, so I reverted back to 8.40 which I am using now to try and figure out what the hell is wrong. 8.40 can't get direct rendering either, btw. | 03:20 |
| Romina | hi | 03:20 |
| damentz | [ifr0g]: ok, logging into it now | 03:20 |
| cdxx | pffft | 03:21 |
| Romina | I am using the free vmware player and downloaded a FreeBSD image | 03:21 |
| cdxx | ardchoille you dont knwo what you're talking about obviously so please stop | 03:21 |
| Romina | the config file (vmx) has a line in it with NAT for the network | 03:21 |
| Romina | so it should automatically be online | 03:21 |
| [ifr0g] | Any one here with an ATI graphic card who can help kristen ?? | 03:21 |
| Romina | but I do not have an internet connection in freebsd (the guest os) | 03:21 |
| Romina | vmware is installed on kubuntu | 03:21 |
| Romina | any ideas? | 03:21 |
| ardchoille | cdxx: I have installed nvidia drivers on over 100 computers.. I know what I'm doing. | 03:21 |
| [ifr0g] | kristen, sorry, no experience with ATI. | 03:22 |
| damentz | [ifr0g]: no go | 03:22 |
| martalli | nvidia drivers can b installed several ways in ubuntu. Please don't fight over which one is the "right" way | 03:22 |
| kristen | [ifr0g] S'okay, thank you for trying. :/ This has been driving me nuts for 3 days | 03:22 |
| damentz | kristen: it shouldn't be that slow | 03:22 |
| damentz | [ifr0g]: ok, so i can put items on my desktop | 03:23 |
| damentz | but none of the media devices are showing | 03:23 |
| damentz | or anything else | 03:23 |
| kristen | damentz: *shrug* I am running real damn slow even with 8.40 - but at least it takes 5 seconds to open a webpage, or tab in IRC, instead of the 10 - 30 sec it takes with 8.42.3 :( | 03:23 |
| damentz | kristen: glxinfo says direct rendering is enabled? | 03:23 |
| damentz | glxinfo | grep direct | 03:24 |
| damentz | if not, your probably using a hybrid of radeon and fglrx drivers or something | 03:24 |
| [ifr0g] | damentz, thats good, you can enable them at the same place above but under the device.icons tab.. | 03:24 |
| kristen | damentz: direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) | 03:24 |
| TUXedomember | were do i unpack kernel files to? | 03:24 |
| damentz | kristen: if you run glxinfo by itself | 03:25 |
| damentz | do you see lines that say mesa or ati/amd? | 03:25 |
| [ifr0g] | TUXedomember, what are you trying to do ? | 03:25 |
| damentz | if its mesa, then fglrx didn't actually install | 03:25 |
| damentz | kristen: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 03:26 |
| damentz | i used that to get my nvidia driver installed | 03:26 |
| kristen | it says ati in some parts and mesa in others | 03:26 |
| kristen | damentz: ^^^ | 03:26 |
| damentz | i think kano from kanotix made his script cross ubuntu and debian | 03:26 |
| damentz | was reading through his code, looked that way | 03:26 |
| miles_ | yo yo wassup | 03:26 |
| ardchoille | !nvidia | 03:26 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 03:26 |
| TUXedomember | i downloaded a precompiled kernel from www.linux-live.org, cause i'm new to kernel and don't want to build the module's but i have the kernel and need to unpack it to a place but were do i put kernels? | 03:26 |
| cdxx | yes the installer realies one is already installed and deleted the previous one | 03:26 |
| cdxx | BTW | 03:26 |
| cdxx | realizes | 03:27 |
| kristen | An nvidia script would work for ATI damentz? | 03:27 |
| damentz | kristen: it just says nvidia | 03:27 |
| damentz | kristen: it has fglrx scripts too | 03:27 |
| kristen | damentz: Ohh it's envy... I actually used envy to roll back to 8.40... he doesn't have 8.42.3 in his repo yet. and his 8.40 is still not doing direct rendering | 03:28 |
| damentz | ah | 03:28 |
| damentz | kristen: 8.40 isn't supported on xorg 7.3 | 03:28 |
| damentz | thats why i think | 03:28 |
| kristen | damentz.. then damn him for not having 8.42.3? lol :) | 03:28 |
| damentz | oh wait, gutsy is on xorg 7.2 | 03:28 |
| damentz | thats odd | 03:29 |
| damentz | ya 8.42 is nice | 03:29 |
| damentz | i've already used it | 03:29 |
| damentz | aiglx doesn't work right though | 03:29 |
| damentz | it seems to be selective on what cards it wants to support | 03:29 |
| damentz | Sysinfo for 'damentz-kubuntu': Linux 2.6.22-14-generic running KDE 3.5.8, CPU: AMDAthlon at 995 MHz (1992 bogomips), , RAM: 432/503MB, 101 proc's, 28.38min up | 03:29 |
| damentz | i'm on my old pc, just testing kubuntu, so far so good | 03:30 |
| damentz | only hitch are these device icons that don't want to show up | 03:30 |
| kristen | I've heard of other x1400 users who had no problem at all with 8.42 - got compiz and everything, didn't have my problems - hence why I think the upgrade to gutsy was frelled, and something needs to be fixed, like libGL.so or something... tried re-linking that but I didn't know what I was doing honestly. | 03:30 |
| damentz | haven't had to do taht in ages... | 03:31 |
| BigDaddy | OK, I found the font I want, but I seriously doubt all these people paid hundreds of dollars to use it. Anyone know where I can find AvantGarde LT? | 03:31 |
| [ifr0g] | TUXedomember, i think the howto on the site its self should help.. | 03:31 |
| kristen | I dunno, all I know is that glxinfo still states mesa in there, bout half way through | 03:31 |
| TUXedomember | but it does not say were to put the kernel file's only the modules | 03:32 |
| kristen | even though fglrxinfo states it is using the driver and not mesa | 03:32 |
| rhythmicmayhem | !ATI | 03:32 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 03:32 |
| damentz | kristen: you can also add Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" to xorg.conf | 03:32 |
| damentz | under the device section where fglrx is | 03:32 |
| pieisgood4589 | Haha | 03:32 |
| pieisgood4589 | hahhhahhaaaa | 03:32 |
| pieisgood4589 | hallo heroki | 03:33 |
| kristen | damentz: Believe I tried that - said that it would improve 2D performance I think? if so, that didn't work either | 03:33 |
| damentz | g2g | 03:33 |
| pieisgood4589 | haha lol gtg too | 03:33 |
| === heroki is now known as hero | ||
| hero | hi there | 03:33 |
| hero | yes, pie is good. | 03:33 |
| kristen | Thanks for tryin' to help damentz | 03:34 |
| vbgunz_ | to share files on my local network, what nfs package do I need from the repos? | 03:37 |
| rhythmicmayhem | kristen: is it posssible that you have the Radeon driver instead of the fglrx driver? | 03:38 |
| kristen | rhythmicmayhem: Anything is possible I suppose. Though would fglrxinfo run if Radeon was installed? And it wouldn't be instead of, it would be in addition to, cause I've installed the ATI driver at LEAST 15 times in the past 3 days so it BETTER be there lol :) | 03:40 |
| kristen | Can I check if radeon is installed? | 03:40 |
| [ifr0g] | vbgunz_, nfs-kernel-server | 03:40 |
| vbgunz_ | [ifr0g]: thats the server, don't I also need a client package? | 03:41 |
| vbgunz_ | am reading up on it but don't see packages for client | 03:41 |
| rhythmicmayhem | kristen: try lsmod | grep radeon on the cli | 03:41 |
| [ifr0g] | vbgunz_, konqueror can access nfs shares. | 03:42 |
| cdxx | "THE 100.14.19 NVIDIA graphics driver will ignore this cpu" | 03:42 |
| kristen | rhythmicmayhem: Nothing. Did a search in Adept Manager though, and radeon returned "radeontool" installed..... | 03:42 |
| vbgunz_ | [ifr0g]: ok, I will look into it, major thanks! | 03:43 |
| cdxx | the card installe din this system is supported thru the NVIDIA 96.43.xx legay driver | 03:43 |
| [ifr0g] | np | 03:43 |
| rhythmicmayhem | kristen: try lsmod | grep fglrx on the cli | 03:43 |
| cdxx | the card installe din this system is supported thru the NVIDIA 96.43.xx legay driver | 03:44 |
| cdxx | ardchoille was so sure of himself he pmed me talking about how many times hes installed nvidia drivers etc | 03:44 |
| rhythmicmayhem | kristen: I had a similar problem a couple years ago when I used Gentoo. I had both installed and it was very confusing (still is for me I guess ;) | 03:44 |
| cdxx | i just went and retried the 100.14.19 one and it once again told me that i have to use th elegacy driver | 03:45 |
| kristen | rhythmicmayhem: fglrx 1480044 0 .. next line: agpgart 35016 2 fglrx,intel_agp | 03:45 |
| [ifr0g] | cdxx, simply uninstall the .run script pls | 03:45 |
| [ifr0g] | cdxx, after done that, do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx | 03:45 |
| [ifr0g] | and restart X and your done | 03:46 |
| curi0 | Does anyone here have direct rendering functioning with an NVIDIA Geforce FX 5900XT graphics card? | 03:46 |
| cdxx | sorry about being a dick im getting frustrated over here. | 03:46 |
| * cdxx hits the bong | 03:46 | |
| [ifr0g] | cdxx, i can understand.. :) | 03:47 |
| rhythmicmayhem | kristen: right driver then .. it was worth a shot ... sorry can't help | 03:47 |
| vbgunz_ | [ifr0g]: if you don't mind me asking. what is the different between the nfs-kernel and the other two nfs-server and nfs-user-server? | 03:47 |
| kristen | rhythmicmayhem: S'okay, no one has been able to. Thank you for trying! I appreciate it | 03:47 |
| cdxx | runing sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx | 03:48 |
| curi0 | you should check to see if direct rendering is on by glxinfo | grep rendering | 03:48 |
| curi0 | if it's not and you need it welcome to my world! | 03:48 |
| [ifr0g] | vbgunz_, nfs-kernel is simply recommended over nfs-user cause it has some extra kernel features.. NEver looked into it for a long time though. | 03:49 |
| cdxx | OH SHNIT | 03:49 |
| cdxx | sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx worked | 03:49 |
| curi0 | It usually does | 03:49 |
| curi0 | Now see if you have direct rendering on | 03:50 |
| vbgunz_ | [ifr0g]: thanks :) | 03:50 |
| curi0 | if you're taking that step in order to satisfy something that has to do with 3D acceleration you should consider. | 03:50 |
| [ifr0g] | vbgunz_, just a sec | 03:51 |
| vbgunz_ | [ifr0g]: am going over a link here http://czarism.com/easy-peasy-ubuntu-linux-nfs-file-sharing | 03:51 |
| [ifr0g] | vbgunz_, this might help you : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo | 03:51 |

| hero | sub[t]rnl: ok, so i do that. but now you've got me curious on how to get the tty consoles to work. | 03:56 |
| hero | and can those compiz effects work w/o using xserver-xgl? | 03:56 |
| sub[t]rnl | hero: ati video card? | 03:56 |
| hero | intel | 03:56 |
| sub[t]rnl | yeah they work without it | 03:57 |
| hero | k | 03:57 |
| sub[t]rnl | using the intel driver? | 03:57 |
| curi0 | Does anyone have glx direct rendering yes for their nvidia gforce fx 5900xt graphics card? I'm trying to complete this step so that I can successfully run compiz and awn. | 03:57 |
| hero | sub[t]rnl: now, how did you solve the tty bug? | 03:58 |
| sub[t]rnl | vga16fb | 03:58 |
| hero | this does NOT solve the problem: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/13981 | 03:59 |
| sub[t]rnl | I've now got a 1024x768 resolution in my tty's | 03:59 |
| hero | sub[t]rnl: ok, could you help me out on how you did that? | 03:59 |
| sub[t]rnl | yup | 03:59 |
| sub[t]rnl | your on gutsy's current kernel? | 03:59 |
| sub[t]rnl | right? | 03:59 |
| hero | yep | 03:59 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, start with sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup | 04:00 |
| hero | k | 04:00 |
| sub[t]rnl | go through there, make sure your using "fixed" fonts | 04:00 |
| hero | should the encoding be UTF-8? | 04:01 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes | 04:01 |
| hero | k | 04:01 |
| sub[t]rnl | show me your lspci |grep VGA real quick | 04:01 |
| hero | and Latin1 and Latin5? | 04:01 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes | 04:01 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | Ok, I've got a bit of a problem with kopete, and this is a bit long. Basically, there have been two "empty" accounts in kopete, a Jabber "EMPTY@" account, and a MSN "empty" account. | 04:01 |
| hero | it has VGA for the font in the console-setup | 04:01 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, used fixed | 04:01 |
| hero | it should say fixed? | 04:01 |
| sub[t]rnl | yup | 04:01 |
| hero | and size? | 04:02 |
| sub[t]rnl | whatever you want | 04:02 |
| sub[t]rnl | 15 or 16 | 04:02 |
| hero | what's the standard? | 04:02 |
| sub[t]rnl | 16 | 04:02 |
| hero | k | 04:02 |
| hero | one sec for the lspci output | 04:02 |
| kristen | Whoo! *clicks through IRC tabs in less than a second* xD | 04:02 |
| hero | looks like the ttys should work on next boot, though | 04:02 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | After removing them, I can no longer connect. So, I used "apt-get remove --purge kopete", and removed the "kopete" directory in "~/.kde/share/apps", and reinstalled. | 04:02 |
| BigDaddy | Does anyone know of a tag editor that even comes close to this one? http://www.mp3tag.de/en/index.html | 04:02 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | It still has the accounts, and it still won't connect. Anyone have any idea about what's wrong with it, and why it still isn't back to defaults? | 04:03 |

| sub[t]rnl | we're not into that right now | 04:05 |
| sub[t]rnl | lets do one at a time bro | 04:05 |
| sub[t]rnl | but yeah, I'll get it running for you | 04:05 |
| hero | i think the ttys should be fine once i reboot | 04:06 |
| sub[t]rnl | eh? | 04:06 |
| sub[t]rnl | i thought you wanted to use the 1024x768 resolution by passing vga= in menu.lst | 04:06 |
| hero | no, i just wanted them to work, period. | 04:07 |
| sub[t]rnl | oh | 04:07 |
| hero | since i upped to gutsy, when i hit ctrl-alt-f1, etc. i just get a blinking underscore instead of a login prompt | 04:07 |
| sub[t]rnl | well just pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:07 |
| hero | k | 04:07 |
| greeg | hi | 04:08 |
| sub[t]rnl | how d | 04:08 |
| hero | sub[t]rnl: http://pastebin.com/d2106020c | 04:08 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, you see your #defoption | 04:09 |
| sub[t]rnl | # defoptions=quiet splash vga=791 | 04:10 |
| greeg | i gotta bone to pick with you motherfuckers. Why doesent mplayer play dvds properly? i get video buffer full error. but i never got this shit when windows was installed. | 04:10 |
| sub[t]rnl | lol | 04:10 |
| greeg | and mplayer nor vlc wont play wmv smoothly | 04:10 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | !ohmy | greeg | 04:10 |
| ubotu | greeg: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly. | 04:10 |
| hero | sub[t]rnl: yeah | 04:10 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, what your doing there is passing a screen resolution that uses a framebuffer to display, the vga=791 | 04:10 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | greeg: Do you have libdvdcss installed? | 04:11 |
| greeg | i havev w32codecs and installed | 04:11 |
| j1solutions | greeg, reinstall windows, that my advice to you | 04:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | just take out the vga=791 | 04:11 |
| hero | ok | 04:11 |
| hero | and what will that do? | 04:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | now you will not framebuffer the console, and it will display, though its gonna be 800x600 | 04:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | yeah, that'll do it | 04:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | save it | 04:11 |
| hero | the splash screen won't display in 1024x768? | 04:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | no, thats why its going blank | 04:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | cause your passing that vga option | 04:12 |
| sub[t]rnl | now, I found a fix if you want to display the smaller resolution in terminals | 04:12 |
| j1solutions | hey sub, what file is that in? | 04:12 |
| greeg | yes libdvdcss and w32codecs are both installed | 04:12 |
| sub[t]rnl | -> /boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:12 |
| j1solutions | i have the same problem with me laptop | 04:12 |
| hero | sub[t]rnl: don't i need to edit each entry on menu.lst, not just defoptions for this? | 04:12 |
| greeg | sub[t]rnl: where do i take this vga=791? whats that to that file your talking about rather. | 04:13 |
| greeg | err path to that file | 04:13 |
| sub[t]rnl | eh? | 04:13 |
| sub[t]rnl | hero: take it out of the kernel boot line too | 04:13 |
| hero | k | 04:13 |
| sub[t]rnl | the vga=791 | 04:13 |
| greeg | yea | 04:13 |
| hero | sub[t]rnl: so the splash screen will work now, but not at 1024x768 | 04:14 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes | 04:14 |
| hero | is there a way to get it to work at 1024x768? | 04:14 |
| sub[t]rnl | since your not telling it to boot with a framebuffer (vesab) | 04:14 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes there is | 04:14 |
| hero | that's what i'd prefer | 04:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | yeah, exactly | 04:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, heres how you do that | 04:15 |
| hero | ok | 04:15 |
| j1solutions | hello sitaram sit | 04:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | your going to edit menu.lst | 04:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | # defoptions=vga=791 quiet splash locale=pl_PL | 04:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | put that for your defoptions that we just edited | 04:15 |
| hero | ok, so now you're having me put back in the vga=791 line | 04:16 |
| hero | as well as locale=pl_PL (poland?) | 04:16 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes, because theres a way to get it to work | 04:16 |
| sitaram | j1solutions: hello... :-) | 04:17 |
| hero | ok | 04:17 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, next | 04:17 |
| hero | ready | 04:17 |
| sub[t]rnl | sudo update-grub | 04:17 |
| hero | is the comment character supposed to be there? | 04:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes | 04:18 |
| hero | k | 04:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, now, edit /etc/usplash.conf | 04:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | and make sure it has xres=1024 yres=768 | 04:19 |
| sub[t]rnl | in it | 04:19 |
| hero | they're on two separate lines, but yes | 04:20 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, good | 04:20 |
| sub[t]rnl | now to make sure we're not blacklisted | 04:20 |
| sub[t]rnl | edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer | 04:20 |
| sub[t]rnl | make sure vga16fb and vesafb are uncommented | 04:21 |
| sub[t]rnl | err, commented | 04:21 |
| hero | *commented*? | 04:21 |
| sub[t]rnl | as in, don't let the kernel blacklist the framebuffers | 04:21 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes, commented | 04:21 |
| hero | did all these entries get re-written on gutsy upgrade? | 04:22 |
| hero | i commented the entries | 04:22 |
| hero | also, when i ran update-grub, it said it didn't find a splash image | 04:22 |
| sub[t]rnl | kinda, the kernel had some changes to it that doesn't comply with vesab | 04:22 |
| hero | k | 04:22 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, you got them commented? | 04:22 |
| hero | yes | 04:22 |
| sub[t]rnl | now to autoload the modules | 04:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | edit /etc/initramfs-tools/modules | 04:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | at the end, add | 04:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | fbcon | 04:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | vesafb | 04:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | vga16fb | 04:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | save it | 04:23 |
| hero | done | 04:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok | 04:24 |
| sub[t]rnl | now check for dependencies | 04:24 |
| sub[t]rnl | sudo depmod -a | 04:24 |
| hero | (running) | 04:24 |
| hero | ok | 04:25 |
| hero | exited with no probs | 04:25 |
| sub[t]rnl | sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash | 04:25 |

| Azzco | Hi I need some help sharing a few files with a windows XP machine. I've tried to figure out how to use samba for about 4-5 hours now | 04:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, what kinda problems are you having? | 04:28 |
| Azzco | Well first of all Dolphin can't see my shared folders (the once on the same machine) Should it? | 04:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | yes | 04:29 |
| Azzco | Okay well then I've got a problem... | 04:29 |
| Azzco | I tried to connect from the xp machine and got prompted for a pw. Then there'd be a connection right? | 04:29 |
| sub[t]rnl | yup | 04:30 |
| Azzco | Weird... | 04:30 |
| sub[t]rnl | well, I take it you have samba and everything installed | 04:31 |
| Azzco | I have no idea what I just did but it works =o | 04:31 |
| sub[t]rnl | lol | 04:31 |
| Dr_willis | ive had issues with gutsy and dolphin seeing shares also | 04:31 |
| Azzco | Yes and I've been messing with smb.conf and added users.. | 04:31 |
| Azzco | Dolphin can't see the share now either.. | 04:31 |
| Dr_willis | you gave the users samba shares with 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' ? | 04:31 |
| Azzco | Yes | 04:31 |
| sub[t]rnl | Dr_willis: odd, never seen that with my dolphin yet | 04:32 |
| Dr_willis | You might want to try some other samba share browser tool. like that fusesmb tool or smb4k | 04:32 |
| Dr_willis | sub[t]rnl, for some odd reason the shares instantly 'time out' on me | 04:32 |

| hellhound | Dr_willis: how would i configure it though? | 05:18 |
| Dr_willis | Good question. :) | 05:18 |
| Dr_willis | depends on the exact mouse perhaps. | 05:18 |
| Dr_willis | I tend to just set the extra buttons up in Quake/games for grenades - is about it. :) | 05:19 |
| hellhound | Dr_willis: it is a logitech G5 and looking on the web i found how to configure it to work with firefox. but it does not work with any others | 05:19 |
| yeo_ | hellhound, look for something called btnx | 05:20 |
| Dr_willis | hellhound, i found the gentoo docs/forums often have good guides for some of this configuration | 05:20 |
| hellhound | yeo_: is it in the kubuntu packages? | 05:21 |
| yeo_ | dunno, but i definitely know its on google ;) | 05:21 |
| pillowpants | when i go to console with crt + alt + fetc do all of my x programs go to sleep? | 05:21 |
| pillowpants | or what occurs in that process? | 05:22 |
| yeo_ | they still run i believe | 05:22 |
| yeo_ | you just arent viewing their GUI's via the Xserver | 05:22 |
| Lynoure | pillowpants: they still run. | 05:22 |
| yeo_ | if you type top in tty1 they still take up cpu. so i guess they keep going | 05:23 |
| elliott541a | is there any way to stop suspending/hibernating from killing my computer? | 05:23 |
| pillowpants | Lynoure: yeah, i just wasnt seeing them in the forfront, so i guess they consume less | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | They all stay running | 05:23 |
| Lynoure | elliott541a: killing in what sense? | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | You could even have several X servers/sessions going. | 05:23 |
| pillowpants | Dr_willis: i wondered if that was possibly | 05:23 |
| yeo_ | yeah thats cool. gnome on one and kde on another. or any combo really | 05:24 |
| pillowpants | Dr_willis: aha, i could go back and forth between icewm and kde! | 05:24 |
| pillowpants | its perfect | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | pillowpants, you could have several dozen users with their own Sessions going. : ) | 05:24 |

| hellhound | i am trying to get my back button on my mouse to work in both firefox and dolphin. i have it working in firefox perfectly but not dolphin. i tried btnx and modmaping but i cannot figure out how to tell it send "backspace" when i am in dolphin and to send "alt-left arrow" when i am in firefox | 05:53 |
| Dr_willis | !info btnx | 05:54 |
| ubotu | Package btnx does not exist in gutsy | 05:54 |
| roomulo | hey, folks | 05:54 |
| Dr_willis | i thought backspace in firefox worked the same as 'back' | 05:54 |
| hellhound | i already tried btnx... it seems to only work with one program | 05:55 |
| roomulo | i'm trying to upgrade... but the same problem occurs all time | 05:55 |
| Dr_willis | change the dolphin shortcut to be the same as firefox uses | 05:55 |
| hellhound | Dr_willis: no backspace in firefox is page up | 05:55 |

| hellhound | Dr_willis: how do you change dolphin's shortcut? | 05:56 |
| Dr_willis | its right tehre in the settings/shortcuts menu | 05:56 |
| Dr_willis | same as every other kde app has. :) i think. | 05:56 |
| Dr_willis | 'back' set to backspace/xf86back | 05:57 |
| roomulo | anyone? | 05:57 |
| Dr_willis | wonder what xf86back is. Must be for multimedia keyboards. | 05:57 |
| mike__ | I cannot see any tray icon,Compiz-fusion works ok | 05:57 |
| Dr_willis | Ive seen some other disrtos with some sort of compiz icons. in the tray | 05:58 |
| hellhound | Dr_willis: i see it now... but it did not work :( | 05:58 |

| Daisuke_Ido | meh | 05:59 |
| mike__ | err | 05:59 |
| Dr_willis | hellhound, you may need to configure the xorg.conf to have the mouse send the button presses/set up 5+ button support. Im thinking the config tool is seeing the other button presses as a right/left button. | 06:01 |
| Dr_willis | My back button on the mouse seems to be sending a 'middleclick' | 06:02 |
| Dr_willis | according to 'xev' at least | 06:02 |
| hellhound | Dr_willis: thank you... let me give it a try | 06:03 |
| roomulo | ... | 06:04 |
| jarious | help | 06:04 |
| jarious | i need to retrieve the full channel list | 06:05 |
| jarious | how can i do this? | 06:05 |
| Dr_willis | you mean /list | 06:06 |
| Dr_willis | get ready for a LOOOOOOOOOOOONG list | 06:06 |
| [ifr0g] | lol | 06:06 |
| luser[t] | when i try to use kdm, i get no theme, but a very generic-looking login (with face browser actually). when i login, i just get an xterm and i have to type startkde & to get kde to start. even when kde starts, i can't close that xterm or it kills the session. any ideas? | 06:06 |
| [ifr0g] | Jaearess, what client ? | 06:06 |
| Dr_willis | luser[t], #1 - close it with 'exit' Not clicking the close button. :) | 06:07 |
| mike__ | How can i stop compiz-fusion/ | 06:07 |
| Dr_willis | #2 try selecting a different session in the KDM session | 06:07 |
| luser[t] | it will run any other wm but kde | 06:07 |
| luser[t] | gnome, xfce, etc. | 06:07 |
| mike__ | kde --replace ,,does not work | 06:07 |
| [ifr0g] | mike__, kwin --replace | 06:07 |
| mike__ | hell ok cheers | 06:08 |
| luser[t] | i'd like kde to automatically start when i login through kdm | 06:08 |
| Dr_willis | luser[t], try stopping kde. make a .xinitrc that just runs 'startkde' and try 'startx' | 06:08 |
| Dr_willis | if for some reasin startkde isent working right. Your kde configs may be messed up. | 06:08 |
| luser[t] | hm | 06:08 |
| luser[t] | so i'll have to type startx from the command prompt instead of using kdm? gdm works fine, but i'd rather not use it. | 06:08 |
| Dr_willis | gdm starts kde fine but kdm dosent? | 06:09 |
| luser[t] | yep | 06:09 |
| Dr_willis | Thats very odd. | 06:09 |
| luser[t] | weird, huh? | 06:09 |
| luser[t] | i know! | 06:09 |
| Dr_willis | try making a new user. see if it works for him | 06:09 |
| luser[t] | k | 06:09 |
| vbgunz | anyone know why my KDM login screen is smaller (not stretched, centered) than the highest possible resolution? I think it is 1024x768 (centered). It should be 1280x1024. I put Virtual 1280 1024 in my xorg.conf but that did nothing :( | 06:11 |
| Dr_willis | I just set up xorg.conf to only have the 1 res i want to use. :) | 06:12 |
| Dr_willis | Not sure how to specificially set what res kdm uses.. | 06:12 |
| Dr_willis | I dont think Virtual is the proper setting tobe tweaking | 06:12 |
| vbgunz | me neither | 06:13 |
| Dr_willis | thats for the 'larger then the visibal screen' type desktops | 06:13 |
| * Jucato thinks the correct resolution would be the first resolution in the default depth | 06:13 | |
| luser[t] | ok, didn't work | 06:14 |
| vbgunz | I'll check my xorg.conf again | 06:14 |
| luser[t] | didn't work with new user, or with .xinitrc | 06:14 |
| Dr_willis | luser[t], try making the .xinitrc just start a xterm. startkde works like that? (you sort of said it did earlier, just checking) | 06:14 |
| luser[t] | well, when i login via kdm, all i get is a black screen with a white xterm | 06:15 |
| vbgunz | I'll restart x. one sec | 06:15 |
| luser[t] | and then i type startkde in the xterm and kde starts | 06:15 |
| Dr_willis | That soulds like your kdm session is actually starting somthing other then 'startkde' | 06:16 |
| luser[t] | but it doesn't matter if i close the xterm or type exit or hit ctrl d, when i do it ends the session | 06:16 |
| luser[t] | maybe it is? | 06:16 |
| luser[t] | i dunno | 06:16 |
| Dr_willis | there are several .desktop files. one for each 'desktop session' | 06:16 |
| Dr_willis | like gnome.desktop kde.desktop icewm.desktop and so forth | 06:16 |
| luser[t] | ok | 06:16 |
| roomulo | guys... this repository can be removed from sources.list? | 06:17 |
| roomulo | http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/freecontrib/ | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | id try making a new one (copy an old one to another file) and edit it to be sure its running 'startkde' | 06:17 |
| luser[t] | i don't have any file like that | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | luser[t], yes you do. :) they are system files | 06:17 |
| luser[t] | oh | 06:17 |
| luser[t] | where are they located? | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | locate gnome.desktop --> /usr/share/xsessions/openbox-gnome.desktop | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | > /usr/share/xsessions/ Looks like. :) | 06:18 |
| luser[t] | k | 06:18 |
| luser[t] | i found those files | 06:18 |
| Dr_willis | the kde.desktop I got is launching Exec=/usr/bin/startkde | 06:18 |
| vbgunz | I made the only available resolution 1280x1024 and the KDM login screen is still smaller than what it should be :/ | 06:18 |
| luser[t] | so is mine | 06:18 |
| vbgunz | I'll try changing the login screen | 06:18 |
| mike__ | How can I change boot gui res? | 06:19 |
| luser[t] | i wonder if it has something to do with upgrading from ubuntu feisty to kubuntu feisty | 06:19 |
| luser[t] | i'm on kubuntu gutsy now, though | 06:19 |
| Dr_willis | luser[t], see whats in cat .dmrc | 06:20 |
| luser[t] | (blank line) | 06:20 |
| luser[t] | [Desktop] | 06:20 |
| luser[t] | Session=kde | 06:20 |
| Dr_willis | well im out of ideas. :) | 06:21 |
| luser[t] | heh | 06:21 |
| luser[t] | yeah, it's weird | 06:21 |
| Dr_willis | other then try moving the .kde dir to some other name | 06:21 |
| luser[t] | i don't understand it | 06:21 |
| luser[t] | what would that do? | 06:21 |
| Dr_willis | reset kde settings back to default | 06:21 |
| luser[t] | hm | 06:21 |
| luser[t] | i'll try that | 06:21 |
| Dr_willis | but that was whyi said 'make a new user' earlier.. :() | 06:22 |
| Dr_willis | to test that | 06:22 |
| mikko | morning | 06:22 |
| puercomorado | morning? | 06:22 |
| [ifr0g] | Morning mikko | 06:22 |
| rickey | hello i have got to get this file libdvdcss2, it is in a restriited repos dose anyone have that link | 06:23 |
| Dr_willis | !info dvd | 06:24 |
| ubotu | Package dvd does not exist in gutsy | 06:24 |
| Dr_willis | !dvd | 06:24 |
| ubotu | 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 | 06:24 |
| vbgunz | how do you cange the KDM theme? | 06:24 |
| vbgunz | !KDM | 06:24 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about kdm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 06:24 |
| Dr_willis | !find kdm | 06:24 |
| ubotu | Found: kdm, kde-kdm-themes, kdmtheme | 06:24 |
| Dr_willis | use the 'kdmtheme' package it has a tool for it. :) | 06:24 |
| [ifr0g] | !libdvdcss2 | 06:24 |
| ubotu | 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 | 06:24 |
| vbgunz | ok | 06:24 |
| wilson | http://download.videolan.org/pub/libdvdcss/1.2.9/deb/ dead easy to find, just looked on google | 06:24 |
| [ifr0g] | rickey, ^ | 06:24 |
| [ifr0g] | rickey, what ubotu said | 06:25 |
| vbgunz | hopefully changing the theme works | 06:25 |
| vbgunz | brb | 06:26 |
| KingJere | Could someone please tell me where amarok keeps the xml files for podcast feeds? And if it is in /home/kingjere/.kde/share/apps/amarok which one is it? | 06:27 |
| mike__ | I am unable to change "boot screen" resolution? | 06:31 |
| mike__ | It is "out of range" on boot | 06:31 |
| elliott541a | !mp3 | 06:32 |
| ubotu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 06:32 |
| [ifr0g] | KingJere, you mean the streams ? | 06:34 |
| elliott541a | what do the buffered memory and cached memory refer to in Ksysguard? | 06:36 |
| KingJere | [ifr0g]: I found the mp3s but I want to find the actual xml file. basically I want to subscribe to all the feeds my wife does/ | 06:36 |
| Daisuke_Ido | [ifr0g]: i'm guessing he means "podcast feeds" | 06:36 |
| KingJere | Well maybe not all of them ;) | 06:37 |
| Daisuke_Ido | as far as a quick way like that, i don't know, the easiest way would be to just see what they are and hunt em down | 06:38 |
| [ifr0g] | KingJere, They should be in the dir you said above or /tmp/ or /usr/share/apps/amarok/ | 06:38 |
| Jucato | (not if they were added by the user, in which case ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/ | 06:39 |
| KingJere | Jucato: I checked there, If its there I don't know which file it is and it sure isn't obvious | 06:39 |
| Jucato | I don't have a feed so I can't really help :) | 06:40 |
| Jucato | you can try asking in #amarok but they're probably sleeping... | 06:40 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i do have feeds and i can't find anything | 06:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that's why i made the suggestion i did :) | 06:41 |
| Jucato | Daisuke_Ido: what's the name of your feed in amarok? | 06:41 |
| KingJere | Jucato: interestingly enought there are two files in /tmp/kde-kingjere/ called amarokryuz7a.tmp and something similar. they are binary though | 06:41 |
| [ifr0g] | Jucato, do a sudo kfind and you can search contents in files recursivly for a match.. | 06:41 |
| Jucato | [ifr0g]: why me? | 06:41 |
| [ifr0g] | KingJere, ^^ | 06:41 |
| [ifr0g] | sorry | 06:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Jucato: as far as... | 06:42 |
| Jucato | !kdesu | [ifr0g] | 06:42 |
| ubotu | [ifr0g]: In KDE, use « kdesudo » (Gutsy) or « kdesu » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Do *not* use « sudo <GUI application> »; you can muck up your permissions/config files. For what to use in GNOME, see !gksudo | 06:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | what the podcasts are? | 06:42 |
| Jucato | Daisuke_Ido: you can "grep -ir pattern *" so that you can check which file contains the pattern | 06:42 |
| Jucato | in which case replace pattern with a keyword | 06:42 |
| Jucato | KingJere: you can probably try ~/.kde/share/config/amarokrc too | 06:43 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no match so far | 06:44 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but it's still going :) | 06:44 |
| KingJere | Jucato: No such file :( | 06:44 |
| Jucato | Daisuke_Ido: um... be sure to be in ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/ when you run that command... | 06:44 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i was actually just in my home | 06:45 |
| [ifr0g] | Another method is to use lsof to see what files amarok is opening wile playing the podcast | 06:45 |
| Jucato | Daisuke_Ido: hahah :P | 06:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | whoopsie! | 06:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | [ifr0g]: that doesn't do much good when it downloads beforehand | 06:45 |
| [ifr0g] | And the last way is to find all files that have their modified date to the latest :) | 06:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | one match. | 06:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | [ifr0g]: amarok updates multiple files often, that's not that reliable either | 06:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | amarok/collection.db | 06:48 |
| [ifr0g] | :D | 06:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that's about it. | 06:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | if you want to go searching through the tables, feel free | 06:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i stand by doing it manually as the best way (you would be done by now) | 06:49 |
| Jucato | ok... best way to solve this.. give me a feed to subscribe to.. I can test it | 06:49 |
| [ifr0g] | me too | 06:49 |
| KingJere | Daisuke_Ido: Thanks for all the effort! But perhaps you are right. | 06:49 |
| Jucato | nvm.. I'll find one | 06:49 |
| KingJere | [ifr0g]: try http://www.lugradio.org/episodes.rss | 06:49 |
| Jucato | probably from http://www.twit.tv/FLOSS | 06:50 |
| KingJere | everyone should listen! | 06:50 |
| dsmith_ | lspci, says I have a intel 2200bg wireless controller is this supported? | 06:50 |

| rickey | ok | 07:01 |
| dsmith__ | Daisuke_Ido: I was earlier though | 07:01 |
| rickey | this is the 47th line | 07:02 |
| Jucato | rickey: can you paste that line in here. only that line | 07:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | check /etc/network/interfaces first, see if it's listed there | 07:02 |
| rickey | http://download.videolan.org/pub/libdvdcss/1.2.9/deb/ | 07:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that's not a deb line | 07:02 |
| KingJere | rickey: first, its got no "deb" at the beginning | 07:02 |
| rickey | do i just take it out? | 07:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | and vlc is in the repos already. | 07:03 |
| Jucato | rickey: just delete it | 07:03 |
| rickey | ok | 07:03 |
| Daisuke_Ido | libdvdcss is in multiverse i think | 07:03 |
| Jucato | Daisuke_Ido: I think he's after the libdvdcss | 07:03 |
| KingJere | rickey: What guide told you to add that line if any? | 07:03 |
| jarn | My volume up/down buttons are not working after the upgrade to Gutsy. They are apparently adjusting SOMETHING, because a volume bar appears on the screen, but whatever it is appears to have no effect and not be able to go over 11%. I have set up the hotkeys in kmix but it still does not do what I want. | 07:03 |
| rickey | ok done | 07:04 |
| Jucato | rickey: save it.then try the "sudo apt-get update" again | 07:04 |
| rickey | close it and see what happens ? | 07:04 |
| Jucato | jarn: kinda known bug I think | 07:04 |
| Jucato | [14:04] <Jucato> rickey: save it.then try the "sudo apt-get update" again | 07:04 |
| jarn | Jucato: Oh, isi t? | 07:04 |
| dsmith__ | Daisuke_Ido: ok I am looking in the interaces conf file | 07:05 |
| Daisuke_Ido | if you want to use networkmanager, your card should NOT be in there (eth1, probably) | 07:06 |
| se7en^Of^9 | does someone know how to install the KDE4s iconset oxygen | 07:06 |
| rickey | i think it is ok ,let me check | 07:06 |
| jarn | Jucato: Ah, yep, thanks. I found the bug about it. | 07:06 |
| dsmith__ | I do have eth0 and eth1, eth1 as the wireless | 07:06 |
| Jucato | se7en^Of^9: you can't use it directly on KDE3 | 07:06 |
| [ifr0g] | jarn, Right click kmix > select master channel, change that to the proper control | 07:06 |
| === miles_ is now known as MilesG | ||
| jarn | [ifr0g]: It already is, it's a known bug in kmilo. | 07:07 |
| * MilesG is now officially a bachelor in computer information systems | 07:07 | |
| * MilesG exhales cigar smoke | 07:07 | |
| se7en^Of^9 | thanks Jucato i thought so | 07:07 |

| chipbuddy | i've got some questions about setting up dual monitors... but i'm using gnome. will i be able to get any help here? | 07:10 |
| Jucato | !libdvdcss2 | 07:11 |
| ubotu | 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 | 07:11 |
| Jucato | rickey: ^^^ | 07:11 |
| [ifr0g] | chipbuddy, did you ask at #ubuntu | 07:11 |
| rickey | i have kubuntu 710 | 07:11 |
| chipbuddy | yeah, but 1) there are a whole lot of people in there, so it looks like my posts are getting missed, and 2) this channel is way cooler | 07:11 |
| KingJere | chipbuddy: flattery will get you nowhere | 07:12 |
| Dr_willis | chipbuddy, whats your video card? | 07:12 |
| dsmith__ | lol | 07:12 |
| rickey | brb coffee | 07:12 |
| [ifr0g] | chipbuddy, what card ? | 07:12 |
| chipbuddy | radeon x800 | 07:12 |
| dsmith__ | copuld it be that ip6 is being used? | 07:13 |
| KingJere | rickey: click menu > system > console (I don't do much point and click :( | 07:13 |
| KingJere | rickey: click menu > system > Konsole (I don't do much point and click :( | 07:13 |
| KingJere | sorry | 07:13 |
| chipbuddy | the little tool that was included in gnome doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere. and really i want to get games running, so if i can just make the two screen stop mirroring eachother i think that would be an improvement | 07:14 |
| chipbuddy | how can i get 1 monitor to just be blank... like... turn it off | 07:14 |
| chipbuddy | aside from unplugging it | 07:14 |

| Dr_willis | if using the fglrx drivers. I think theres an ati/fglrx tool you should be using | 07:16 |
| rickey | didnt work | 07:16 |
| Dr_willis | rickey, you dont use http:// as a COMMAND in the shell | 07:17 |
| mads2 | hi | 07:17 |
| Dr_willis | that appears to me as a directory you would look at with a browser to download somthing from. :0 | 07:17 |
| KingJere | rickey: your in a Konsole? | 07:17 |
| mads2 | where can i change the font in the shell? | 07:17 |
| rickey | take the http:// out | 07:17 |
| KingJere | rickey: no. | 07:17 |
| mads2 | shell as in where i go when i press ctrl + alt + f1 | 07:17 |
| mads2 | the default font there is way too big | 07:18 |
| mads2 | in the default ubuntu install? | 07:18 |
| Dr_willis | mads2, konsole has a font settings menu item. The 'console' you use the 'consolechars' command | 07:18 |
| KingJere | type this sudo aptitude install libdvdcss2 | 07:18 |
| mads2 | i dont wanna use konsole | 07:18 |
| mads2 | i dont wanna be in xorg when handling that stuff | 07:18 |
| Dr_willis | the 'default' font is set in the /etc/console-tools/config file | 07:18 |
| KingJere | rickey: then your password | 07:18 |
| mads2 | thanks. | 07:18 |
| Dr_willis | thats for the 'console' - Not 'konsole' :) | 07:19 |
| rickey | ok it says it is done | 07:19 |
| KingJere | rickey: watch some dvds:) | 07:19 |
| rickey | i did my password | 07:19 |
| rickey | thanks | 07:19 |
| rickey | sorry to be so much trouble | 07:20 |
| Dr_willis | /usr/share/consolefonts/ - is where the dozens of consolefonts are stored | 07:20 |
| KingJere | rickey: there is probably a point and click way to do the same thing, but darned if I know it | 07:20 |
| rickey | thanks | 07:20 |
| KingJere | rickey: no prob | 07:20 |
| mads2 | Dr_willis: can you recommend some good fonts? | 07:21 |
| mads2 | i know. :] | 07:21 |

| MilesG | KingJere: headache | 07:38 |
| KingJere | MilesG: good one. | 07:38 |
| rickey | Daisuke do you mind trying to help me fix my cd drive? | 07:38 |
| MilesG | KingJere: from my own experience, and what ive seen in here, there is trouble with sound and wireless | 07:39 |

| KingJere | No wireless here | 07:39 |
| Lynoure | KingJere: and with Hibernate/Suspend | 07:39 |
| KingJere | Lynoure: I have never had Hibernate and suspend work right. | 07:39 |
| Lynoure | For me (and quite many others) hibernate now hangs, suspend happens but no recovery | 07:39 |
| * MilesG never uses hibernate or suspend | 07:39 | |
| Lynoure | KingJere: Hibernate worked nicely for me in Feisty | 07:40 |
| KingJere | Lynoure: except if I kill X and suspend from the command line | 07:40 |
| Lynoure | And not that FF refuses to get saved with session, not using suspend/hibernate is more annoying that it could be | 07:40 |
| Lynoure | s/not/now | 07:40 |
| KingJere | BTW I don't have kubuntu-desktop installed. I do a text system install and build from there so suspend saves me only like 8 seconds | 07:41 |

| gary_inNYC | is it possible to share a mounted ntfs partition over a LAN in gutsy even though the partition was created and owned by XP? i dual boot | 09:51 |
| Arandel[at-work] | ok i will | 09:51 |
| Arandel[at-work] | ) | 09:51 |
| DeadJones | sort-of possible to share that ntfs partition but nix has some issues in write on it. in the past its been read only | 09:51 |
| DeadJones | all working now arandel? | 09:53 |
| Arandel[at-work] | hmm no | 09:53 |
| Arandel[at-work] | unfortunately | 09:53 |
| DeadJones | mouseover doesnt bring it back? | 09:53 |
| Arandel[at-work] | nope | 09:53 |
| DeadJones | oh. ur screwed then :p | 09:53 |
| gary_inNYC | i see, because i'm having a problem sharing it altogether. i can easily share any folder in my home directory, but not so with any ntfs mount... it'll put me on a repeat login if i try to access it on a win machine | 09:53 |
| Arandel[at-work] | thx ) | 09:53 |
| DeadJones | nah, dunno. im sure there's some trick to bring it up | 09:53 |

| Arandel[at-work] | well not much | 09:56 |
| DeadJones | woohoo. that'd be a nice one | 09:56 |
| Arandel[at-work] | how do I launch system settings? | 09:56 |
| DeadJones | heh, ive just managed to crash konq and nautilus | 09:56 |
| needles | Arandel[at-work] : uh, im not sure | 09:56 |

| Op3r | Does kubuntu really need to gorge up the memory? I mean I only have 512 mb of memory :( | 10:22 |
| Jucato | Op3r: what do you mean? | 10:22 |
| Op3r | I mean this Mem: 450300k total, 442076k used, 8224k free, 7460k buffers | 10:22 |
| Op3r | :( | 10:22 |
| Jucato | Op3r: K Menu -> System -> Kinfocenter then click on Memory | 10:23 |
| needles | is it possible to watch movies in the console? | 10:23 |
| needles | and/or see images? | 10:23 |
| Jucato | if you see Application Data (red) overflowing the Physical memory, then something's terribly wrong | 10:24 |
| Op3r | Yes | 10:24 |
| Op3r | I think somebody actually did that | 10:24 |
| Op3r | although its on ascii | 10:24 |
| Jucato | yeah, ascii art | 10:24 |
| Op3r | like the application data took up 70% | 10:25 |
| needles | Jucato : i heard you can do it with mplayer and fb support | 10:25 |
| needles | how would i do that in kubuntu? | 10:25 |
| Jucato | Op3r: Linux handles RAM a bit differently than Windows... what you see as memory being used might not actually be for Applications | 10:25 |
| Jucato | needles: that I don't know | 10:25 |
| Jucato | !ram | Op3r | 10:25 |

| Jucato | Op3r: have you checked kinfocenter? | 10:25 |
| needles | Op3r : do you have any swap enabled? | 10:25 |
| Op3r | Yes I am checking | 10:26 |
| Op3r | And yes I have swap enabled | 10:26 |
| Jucato | is everything slow? | 10:26 |
| Op3r | Nope | 10:26 |
| Op3r | :( | 10:26 |
| Op3r | errr | 10:26 |
| needles | i have a swap partition half the size of my ram | 10:26 |
| Op3r | Im just being oc on the memory being used | 10:26 |
| Op3r | my swap was like 1.2gb | 10:26 |
| Op3r | no its 1.04 gb rather | 10:27 |
| Jucato | Op3r: basically, Linux makes wise and good use of your RAM to make your computer run in the most efficient way possible | 10:28 |
| pparker | i mean grub is working,i see menu, but i can't see what i select because select color is black | 10:28 |
| Jucato | Op3r: just because you see all your RAM being used, doesn't mean applications are using it all | 10:28 |
| Op3r | Yep I understand | 10:29 |
| Jucato | most of it is used by Disk Cache | 10:29 |
| Op3r | cos I have 15 tabs opened in firefox kopete and skype is opened I also have xmms running plus 3 konsole :( | 10:30 |
| Jucato | (well firefox would most probably be the culprit) | 10:30 |
| Op3r | Yes | 10:30 |
| Op3r | I think it is | 10:30 |
| Jucato | 3 konsoles? | 10:31 |
| Op3r | yep terminal | 10:31 |
| Jucato | why? | 10:31 |
| Jucato | why 3 separate konsoles/ | 10:31 |
| Op3r | For my servers | 10:31 |
| Op3r | Like 2 tabs opened each | 10:31 |
| Op3r | Im using it to ssh to my servers | 10:31 |
| Jucato | hm... versus 6 tabs in one window? :) | 10:31 |
| Op3r | Yep | 10:32 |
| Jucato | oh well... your call :) | 10:32 |
| Op3r | that way I can just glance at them 3 at the same time | 10:32 |

| tds | dc2447, the newer releases | 11:25 |
| Op3r | does anyone have a suggested theme to use? Like a very cool one? | 11:26 |
| dc2447 | tds: that was why I upgraded | 11:26 |
| tds | dc2447, yep, without people like us who try out the newer stuff, there'd be no stable releases. i can't stand the Debian or other distro elitism saying their distro is more stable | 11:28 |

| vbgunz_ | I am really tired of middle clicking and missing and leaving the page on some behaviour I still have no idea what | 11:29 |
| vbgunz_ | hmmm, I got it | 11:29 |
| Op3r | if you really want a stable system I think its safe to say it really depends on the user | 11:29 |
| vbgunz_ | it appears the shortcut 'shift+insert' is mapped to middle click | 11:29 |
| werty | if i have kde & ubuntu together will i have to install sometimes twice a programme? | 11:30 |
| Op3r | werty, it should be detected by both | 11:30 |

| WaltzingAlong | Ornedan: as far as i know, (a certain version of) adept connects to ubuntu to check a file about which dist is latest, compares that to yours, and offers the dist-upgrade accordingly; if the version of adept you have is older, then you would not get that notice | 13:06 |
| Ornedan | Jucato: Nope. Is that a requirement for it to automatically offer the upgrade? | 13:06 |
| Jucato | WaltzingAlong: according to Riddel, that's no longer necessary if feisty-proposed (Pre-release updates) have been enabled | 13:06 |
| Jucato | Ornedan: yes. please refer to the instructions | 13:06 |

| metacon | says alsaconf removed https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-utils/+bug/29597 | 13:07 |
| WaltzingAlong | Ornedan: so if you have not enabled feisty-proposed (pre-release updates) then you would not have been upgraded to the build of adept that would automatically find out about the dist upgrade | 13:07 |
| Morrissey | I installed gtkpod-aac, but when I try to add a mp4 file it says: m4a/m4p/m4b not supported without the mp4v2 library. You must compile the gtkpod source together with the mp4v2 library. | 13:08 |
| tds | Morrissey, apt-cache search mp4v2 | 13:10 |
| Morrissey | tds, hi again :) it is installed | 13:11 |
| Ornedan | Jucato, WaltzingAlong: That would explain why I didn't get the automatic notification. Thanks. I'd read in a few places that the distro upgrade would be offered by the update notifier, but those didn't mention the configuration prerequisites. | 13:13 |

| [ifr0g] | hei. | 13:27 |
| dusk_ | i have updated from 7.04 to 7.10..and after that this is a total mess:S | 13:27 |
| dusk_ | no sound...i had to reconfigure the nvidia drivers, etc etc... | 13:28 |
| rakan | how can i setup KDE to change keyboad layout when i press left alt-shift like windows style??? | 13:28 |
| dusk_ | but the major problem now is no sound ..:S | 13:28 |
| Morrissey | I installed gtkpod-aac, but when I try to add a mp4 file it says: m4a/m4p/m4b not supported without the mp4v2 library. You must compile the gtkpod source together with the mp4v2 library. | 13:28 |
| atlfalcons866 | will there be a speed boost if i compile a kernel | 13:28 |

| dusk_ | !sound | 13:30 |
| dusk_ | .... | 13:30 |
| WaltzingAlong | rakan: configure the kde keyboard tool | 13:30 |
| tds | does anyone here recompile their kernel? | 13:30 |
| rakan | WaltzingAlong: i cannot find alt-shift options, does "Changes group" means changes layout? | 13:31 |
| WaltzingAlong | tds: not lately | 13:31 |
| tds | WaltzingAlong, notice any performance gain? | 13:32 |
| tds | thought about doing it but didn't the the gain would be noticeable | 13:32 |
| WaltzingAlong | when i did that it was just to do it (and then another time to enable badram) but nothing about speed was my objective | 13:32 |
| WaltzingAlong | tds: so maybe to learn how but you just as well learn how to package software into .deb :D then contribute to kubuntu | 13:33 |
| WaltzingAlong | tds: which things seem slow now? how much faster do you expect them to be? | 13:33 |
| tds | WaltzingAlong, nothing seems slow really, just thought about doing it for the heck of it. done it one time and something went wrong after spending 30 minutes tweaking it but i gave up. it gave me a kernel panic | 13:34 |
| WaltzingAlong | atlfalcons866: speed boost if you compile a kernel? maybe but if so i would doubt it to be by any amount you could readily detect. ... unless you are doing some intense video editing or hardcore db usage (something other than normal desktop computing) | 13:34 |
| rakan | WaltzingAlong: i cannot find alt-shift options, does "Changes group" means changes layout? | 13:35 |
| WaltzingAlong | rakan: in the time you have waited for my reply you could have tried it yourself, no? | 13:36 |
| rakan | i did give it a try | 13:36 |
| WaltzingAlong | what happened | 13:36 |
| rakan | in xkb options | 13:36 |
| rakan | i put alt-ctrl changes group | 13:36 |
| rakan | it doesnt seem to change anything | 13:36 |
| rakan | i only have 2 keyboard layouts | 13:36 |
| WaltzingAlong | rakan: ok how about this. note the commands for each of the layouts. setxkbmap and such | 13:37 |
| rakan | setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle | 13:37 |
| WaltzingAlong | rakan: venture to kmenu/system settings/keyboard and mouse/keyboard shortcuts, then assign the commands to switch to whichever keys you want | 13:38 |
| rakan | sorry: setxkbmap -option grp:ctrl_alt_toggle | 13:38 |
| rakan | ok will check that out | 13:39 |
| rakan | OK, so there is an option for "Switch to next keyboard layout | 13:40 |
| rakan | what about previous? | 13:40 |
| rakan | so that i can go back and forth between layouts? | 13:40 |
| WaltzingAlong | maybe next and next again? | 13:41 |
| rakan | nope, doesnt work | 13:41 |
| WaltzingAlong | that combination there works here (ctrl alt k) | 13:42 |
| rakan | does it switch to the previous layout on urs? | 13:43 |
| titanix88 | hi everyone. | 13:44 |
| WaltzingAlong | i do not see a 'switch to prev' but can switch next to next to next in a rotation | 13:44 |
| herr_weltschaft | moine | 13:44 |
| herr_weltschaft | moin | 13:44 |
| WaltzingAlong | was gibt's? | 13:44 |
| titanix88 | whatz:in what? | 13:44 |
| WaltzingAlong | greetings titanix88 | 13:44 |
| alberdi | hi | 13:44 |
| titanix88 | greetings! | 13:45 |
| alberdi | with metod is beter for instal apt-get? | 13:45 |
| WaltzingAlong | alberdi: i prefer sudo aptitude | 13:45 |
| WaltzingAlong | alberdi: or sudo aptitude install <package> | 13:45 |
| titanix88 | alberdi:i do find apt-get comfortable. | 13:46 |
| alberdi | how do i se if the program i want to install is abailable on apt-get? | 13:46 |
| SlimeyPete | alberdi: search for it using Adept | 13:47 |
| WaltzingAlong | alberdi: apt-cache search <package> | 13:47 |
| SlimeyPete | or type "apt-cache search programname" | 13:47 |
| WaltzingAlong | alberdi: or aptitude search <package> | 13:47 |
| titanix88 | albardi: tab or auto completion. | 13:47 |
| rakan | Dont know, it doesnt seem to rotate here :S | 13:47 |
| WaltzingAlong | :( | 13:47 |
| alberdi | ah, tried list :P | 13:47 |
| alberdi | ill prove it | 13:47 |
| titanix88 | what is rotating?o_0 | 13:48 |
| rakan | keyboard layout rotation | 13:48 |
| rakan | when i switch keyboard layouts, it goes from english to arabic when i press alt-shit-z as configured | 13:49 |
| titanix88 | the earth?! | 13:49 |
| rakan | but when it is on arabic and i press alt-shit-z again it doesnt rotate back to english | 13:49 |
| rakan | it should if it is to work like a Queue | 13:49 |
| rakan | next() on the last item means go back to first :D | 13:50 |
| titanix88 | rakan: u enabled arabic keyboard layout maybe.disable it if u dont want it. | 13:50 |
| rakan | yes actually i did and i do really want it | 13:50 |
| titanix88 | rakan:enable sticky switching. | 13:51 |
| rakan | i do PHP web development | 13:51 |
| rakan | i do need this when i code | 13:51 |
| rakan | already done | 13:51 |
| rakan | i think Kubuntu reads alt-shift differantly when i switch to arabic | 13:51 |
| rakan | because the letter on "Z" position might be differant | 13:52 |
| rakan | let me see if i can assign two standard keys | 13:52 |
| WaltzingAlong | rakan: yeah same here, alt-ctrl-k ; the k moves in the other layouts | 13:52 |
| titanix88 | rakan: yes, shortcuts don't work when u swich key layout. | 13:53 |
| rakan | can we assign something like alt-something or ctrl-something | 13:53 |
| rakan | where something is not a letter key? | 13:53 |
| titanix88 | try not using any language key. | 13:54 |
| rakan | thats what i will try to do | 13:54 |
| rakan | but i am thinking of what key to use with alt | 13:54 |
| titanix88 | rakan: u can use super key. | 13:56 |
| WaltzingAlong | a number? | 13:56 |
| rakan | wth is katapult? | 13:56 |
| titanix88 | numbers change with key layout too. | 13:56 |
| WaltzingAlong | !info katapult | 13:56 |

| rakan | so aint necessary i guess | 13:57 |
| rakan | will see | 13:57 |
| WaltzingAlong | rakan: have you not been using katapult? press alt-space to give it a try, type something | 13:57 |
| rakan | yea it worked | 13:57 |
| rakan | thanks WaltzinAlong | 13:58 |
| rakan | thanks everybody :) | 13:58 |
| rakan | oh | 13:58 |
| titanix88 | i guess space is same in all layout. | 13:58 |

| alesan | what was that? | 14:06 |
| * genii sips a coffee | 14:07 | |
| WaltzingAlong | alesan: to have feisty-proposed enabled (pre-release) | 14:08 |
| alesan | no you said this one: software-properties-kde | 14:08 |
| alesan | now I have found it | 14:08 |
| nosrednaekim | genii: how much of that stuff do you drink? | 14:09 |
| WaltzingAlong | yes software-properties-kde should be installed (which lets you easily select pre-release updates in adept manager) | 14:09 |
| WaltzingAlong | genii: dripdrop coffe? | 14:09 |
| alesan | WaltzingAlong, ok it was already installed | 14:10 |
| alesan | thank you | 14:10 |
| genii | WaltzingAlong: Drip coffee, yes. On work days I drink about a large cup every hour-90 minutes | 14:10 |

| === denis__ is now known as Deluxe | ||
| WaltzingAlong | guess it is good that it is just drip coffee! | 14:17 |
| Jucato | choco milk... | 14:18 |
| WaltzingAlong | is that chocolate flavored soy milk? Jucato | 14:20 |
| Jucato | ew! | 14:20 |
| WaltzingAlong | haha just teasing... it has been a long time since i have stolen cow's milk from a calf, | 14:22 |
| wezza | hi, I have a problem with guarddog; once installed I cannot browse nor do everything else, so you have to allow the incoming connections (with firestarter this is not needed =>only outgoing was needed). And even if you set the configuration it does not work sometimes (for example ktorrent / irc) | 14:26 |
| alberdi | how do i identifie the line some one write to me, how do i put it a diferent color in kubuntu konversation? | 14:28 |
| wezza | alberdi: over here, the line are red, directed to me | 14:28 |
| wezza | Noone has problems with guarddog? | 14:30 |
| alberdi | then its my monitor, it doesent display some colors | 14:30 |
| Op3r | guarddog | 14:31 |
| Op3r | whats that for? | 14:31 |
| Morrissey | firewall++ | 14:31 |
| wezza | Op3r: firewall for KDE | 14:31 |
| vzduch | !info guarddog | 14:31 |
| Op3r | oh | 14:31 |
| ubotu | guarddog: firewall configuration utility for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.5.0-1ubuntu3 (gutsy), package size 482 kB, installed size 1436 kB | 14:31 |
| Op3r | firewall | 14:31 |
| Op3r | and I thought you dont need one considering you are already using linux :( | 14:31 |
| Morrissey | Op3r, what has that to do with anything? ;) You should read some info about firewall | 14:32 |
| wezza | think it's strange you can only set a configuration for a connection; not for incoming and outgoing apart | 14:32 |
| user_ | XaY!!!! | 14:32 |

| vzduch | Jucato: even nicer would've been a kick msg like e.g. 'you were flood' *gg* | 14:33 |
| Jucato | :) | 14:33 |
| Morrissey | Jucato, that was quite fast ... had to be some sort of record :P | 14:34 |
| Jucato | vzduch: would you have rather waited a few more seconds while I typed that or would you prefer faster action? :) | 14:34 |
| Jucato | Morrissey: konversation ftw :) | 14:34 |
| alesan | faster action | 14:34 |
| * Morrissey thinks ban and kick is all about speed :P | 14:34 | |
| Morrissey | Jucato, cha .. your oldschool :P | 14:34 |
| nosrednaekim | Jucato isn't one to worry about offending a spammer | 14:34 |
| vzduch | well, depends on the situation | 14:34 |
| wezza | but noone actually uses guarddog over here? | 14:34 |
| Jucato | specially w/ those kinds of flooders... every second lost is 5 lines flooded :) | 14:34 |
| Jucato | vzduch: some other time :) | 14:35 |
| Morrissey | wezza, sorry dude, I trust my network admin ;) | 14:35 |
| wezza | Morrissey: ghehe, but over here I myself am the network admin ;) | 14:36 |
| Morrissey | here too .. | 14:36 |
| Morrissey | :P | 14:36 |
| wezza | Morrissey: :P | 14:36 |
| vzduch | hehe | 14:36 |
| Op3r | yay | 14:37 |
| wezza | Morrissey: I know by default, there aren't any server-related processes, but I personally think it's beter to uese a firewall (even though there is some on my router) | 14:38 |
| Op3r | wezza, i suggest when using guard dog you just have to think about it like it is windows firewall? | 14:38 |
| Op3r | :D | 14:38 |
| vzduch | Windoze Firewall is kind-of like a Swiss cheese.. ;) | 14:38 |
| Morrissey | wezza, I see ...and what was your problem again? | 14:39 |
| vzduch | to my knowledge Guarddog is airtight if need be | 14:39 |
| Op3r | to my knowledge iptables can do the job? | 14:39 |
| wezza | Op3r: guarddog uses iptables, so that's not really windows ;) | 14:39 |
| vzduch | Op3r: Guarddog is a GUI for iptables, nothing else | 14:39 |
| Morrissey | iptables can be quite tricky, and wezza is correct | 14:39 |
| DarkWizzard | hello | 14:40 |
| DarkWizzard | so I was updating to Gutsy from feisty | 14:40 |
| DarkWizzard | and the dist upgrade tool | 14:40 |
| DarkWizzard | from adept.Crashed just when it downloaded the packages | 14:40 |
| DarkWizzard | how can I restart it ? | 14:40 |
| wezza | Morrissey: I think it's strange you cannot set outgoing / incoming connections apart; and besides that connections don'e seem to succeed, not even when I've set the right parameters in guarddog | 14:41 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade in konsole | 14:41 |
| DarkWizzard | I mean the grafical way | 14:41 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, it iill resume | 14:41 |
| DarkWizzard | I know the console way | 14:42 |
| Morrissey | Darkrift411, why won't you use konsole? trust me, youll be allright :) | 14:42 |
| DarkWizzard | but I want the automated grafical install | 14:42 |
| DarkWizzard | I don't want to run into problems | 14:42 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, quick bring you up to speed here ... adept USE apt-get, its just a GUI verison of it ... you won't run into problems! If you do, you will also get it in GUI | 14:43 |
| DarkWizzard | man | 14:43 |
| DarkWizzard | I did this before | 14:43 |
| knight__ | apt-get | 14:43 |
| DarkWizzard | and the system broke | 14:43 |
| DarkWizzard | when upgrading distros | 14:43 |
| DarkWizzard | so I want to do it the safe and grafical way | 14:44 |
| knight__ | what is it | 14:44 |
| DarkWizzard | how do I start that automated program ? | 14:44 |
| knight__ | well , i found that kde often goes wrong | 14:44 |
| DarkWizzard | I need to find that tool | 14:44 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, if you insists! I can assure you that it does the same, but either way: start - system - adept manager .... then press full upgrade | 14:44 |
| DarkWizzard | no man | 14:45 |
| DarkWizzard | http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/snapshot9.png | 14:45 |
| DarkWizzard | this program | 14:45 |
| DarkWizzard | how do I start it ? | 14:45 |
| DarkWizzard | it has to be somewhere | 14:45 |
| Morrissey | yes man | 14:46 |
| titanix88 | hey | 14:46 |
| titanix88 | how is kubu in 7.04? | 14:46 |
| Morrissey | start adept manager, press "adept" - "manage reporosires" go to Updates ... make sure "pre-release" is checked, and "recommended" | 14:47 |
| DarkWizzard | but it modifyed my repos | 14:47 |
| Morrissey | then start "update", restart the program ... press "full upgrade", and the snapshot you showed me will show | 14:47 |
| titanix88 | heard some people doesn't like dolphin? | 14:47 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, then damn! it was you who wanted this GUi thingy in the first place ... man | 14:47 |
| DarkWizzard | the gui thingy from the screenshot | 14:47 |
| DarkWizzard | not a simple system upgrade | 14:48 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, YES | 14:48 |
| titanix88 | she can be a women! | 14:48 |
| DarkWizzard | ah fuck it | 14:48 |
| DarkWizzard | console | 14:48 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, the snapshot you showed me comes from adept manager ... trust me, exacly as I told yo | 14:48 |
| mzungu | titanix88, dolphin is for ppl who like a file manager to manage....files | 14:48 |
| * Morrissey thinks people don't trust hum enough | 14:48 | |
| DarkWizzard | every time they do some new automated shiny gui for the newbies it breaks | 14:48 |
| Morrissey | word | 14:48 |
| DarkWizzard | ok | 14:49 |
| DarkWizzard | I'm gone | 14:49 |
| mzungu | if you are happy with konq, it can do it for you better | 14:49 |
| DarkWizzard | thanks | 14:49 |
| Morrissey | np ... man | 14:49 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, you should check out the "update tutorial" on kubuntu pages ... thats for newbies, and its safe | 14:50 |
| titanix88 | darkwizzard: women can be here!so no *uck plz. | 14:50 |
| Morrissey | DarkWizzard, http://kubuntu.org/announcements/7.10-release.php#upgrade | 14:51 |
| Morrissey | titanix88, um .. don't think DarkWizzard said anything about any women, so cut the boy some slack :) | 14:51 |
| mzungu | titanix88, btw have you ever read the graffiti in women's toilets? ;) | 14:53 |
| titanix88 | i am trying to support women collaboration in linux as told in tldp.org/howto/women in linux | 14:53 |

| DarkWizzard | what error ? | 14:54 |
| mzungu | linguistic ;) | 14:55 |
| DarkWizzard | look | 14:55 |
| DarkWizzard | women are strong, they can take it | 14:55 |
| DarkWizzard | don't look down on them | 14:55 |
| mzungu | my point | 14:55 |
| DarkWizzard | but nevermind | 14:55 |
| mzungu | just trying to be nice to both sides :) | 14:56 |
| DarkWizzard | I hope I live to see the day when their leet python upgrade script doesn't segfault | 14:56 |
| DarkWizzard | ok | 14:56 |
| DarkWizzard | now I'm really gone | 14:56 |
| DarkWizzard | sorry if I offended anyone | 14:56 |
| DarkWizzard | and thanks | 14:56 |
| titanix88 | darkwizzard: which indirectly suggests it was to women. don't do that man. don't make them feel lonely. | 14:57 |
| Morrissey | Currently studying Civil Engineer on communication techonology, we have about 20% women, and they all is pretty good coders ... | 14:57 |
| titanix88 | thnx | 14:57 |
| Morrissey | are* | 14:57 |
| Doobeh | Why wouldn't they be good coders? :) | 14:58 |

| titanix88 | yeah, y cromsome does not hold intelligence.:p | 14:58 |
| Morrissey | omg ... this is getting out of hand ... | 14:59 |
| Remo_A | When I try to upgrade from feisty to gutsy gibbon, I don't get that window http://www.kubuntu.org/~jriddell/kubuntu-upgrade/snapshot2.png when I go to "manage repositories" in adept. Instead I get to see my sources.list ... What should I do? | 14:59 |
| amigrave | my compiz config manager has lost it's icons in all setup panels. Is it a known problem ? | 15:00 |
| Jucato | Remo_A: please make sure "software-properties-kde" is installed | 15:00 |
| Morrissey | amigrave, sure is ... have it too | 15:00 |
| amigrave | Morrissey: found a solution ? missing package or something ? | 15:01 |
| titanix88 | amigrave:they were there before? | 15:01 |
| Morrissey | amigrave, its not a missing package, I actually havent search for a sollution, but let me know :) | 15:01 |
| Remo_A | Jucato: thanks, it wasn't | 15:01 |
| amigrave | titanix88: yes just after the feisty -> gusty upgrade they were there. But after I made lot of changes in order to get compiz working. and now that it is working I just saw that the icons were gone | 15:02 |
| nosrednaekim | amigrave: install all the plugins | 15:02 |
| nosrednaekim | oh.. the icons are gone | 15:02 |
| poison--- | Jucato, just experienced the weirdest issue with gutsy | 15:02 |
| Jucato | poison---: ok....??? | 15:02 |
| poison--- | i was running it in a small 50GB partition and the damn thing got filled up | 15:02 |
| poison--- | 0% space left | 15:03 |
| poison--- | rebooted and it never logged in again | 15:03 |
| poison--- | said there wasnt enough space | 15:03 |
| poison--- | lol | 15:03 |
| Jucato | hm... maybe /var got filled up | 15:03 |
| poison--- | had to use the live cd to del some trash | 15:03 |
| poison--- | worked fine tho after | 15:03 |
| titanix88 | poison:50gb small partition!:p | 15:03 |
| Jucato | you could check which dir is eating it up. probably /var | 15:04 |
| poison--- | i eas using alot of space with movies and games | 15:04 |
| poison--- | i was* | 15:04 |
| poison--- | deleted some and im good now | 15:04 |
| poison--- | now the issue is how to resize the partition | 15:04 |
| amigrave | Morrissey: do you remember after what operation the icons disapeared ? | 15:05 |
| poison--- | deleted the windows partition wich is 160GB but i cant add it to gutsy partyition :( | 15:05 |
| wezza | poison---: is it not better to use a different partition for your data and OS? | 15:05 |
| Morrissey | amigrave, sry dude ... I dont | 15:05 |
| titanix88 | poison: maybe quota would have been your rescuer. | 15:05 |
| * Morrissey HATES to code for duo core optimizing .... wondering how it will be on quad core ... | 15:06 | |
| nosrednaekim | poison---: you can make a separate /home... | 15:06 |
| poison--- | ehehe, true | 15:06 |
| poison--- | i might do that instead | 15:07 |
| poison--- | https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html | 15:07 |
| poison--- | does this link aply to gutsy? | 15:07 |
| poison--- | im having no luck at all | 15:07 |
| Morrissey | sorry ubuntu, this is #kubuntu ... your prob looking for #ubuntu | 15:07 |
| poison--- | !dvd | 15:07 |
| ubotu | 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 | 15:07 |
| poison--- | got it here mate | 15:07 |
| wezza | and so ubuntu left ^^ | 15:09 |
| Morrissey | :) | 15:09 |
| Morrissey | Im in a gread mood today, must be the weekend hovering in | 15:09 |
| poison--- | in that url about playing dvds | 15:11 |
| poison--- | says: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh | 15:12 |
| poison--- | but in fact, what i had to do was sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh | 15:12 |
| nosrednaekim | if its a wiki, edit it ;) | 15:13 |
| WaltzingAlong | poison---: you could also add the medibuntu repository | 15:14 |
| Remo_A | what is the "distribution upgrade tool"? I closed adept, but can't find that one | 15:14 |
| WaltzingAlong | Remo_A: alt+f2 kdesu "adept_manager --dist-upgrade" | 15:15 |
| poison--- | !medibuntu | 15:16 |
| ubotu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 15:16 |
| Remo_A | WaltzingAlong: doesn't seem to work... no reaction after I typed that in and gave the password | 15:17 |
| Remo_A | --dist-upgrade is unknown | 15:17 |
| WaltzingAlong | --version-upgrade then | 15:17 |
| Remo_A | neither | 15:18 |
| amigrave | Morrissey: I did an strace of ccsm and I saw it was reading the icons from /usr/local/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/ ... but the icons are not there. So I guess there's a missing package or somehtin | 15:18 |
| atlfalcons866 | #debian | 15:18 |
| WaltzingAlong | Remo_A: though if you have installed software-properties-kde then you can enable (easily) the feisty-proposed (pre-release) updates in adept manager; then update and upgrade should pull down the latest adept | 15:18 |
| Morrissey | amigrave, its deffinatly not a package thats missing ... but it's strange if the icons is moved ... make sure that the icons has a+r :) Maybe thats the case? | 15:19 |
| Morrissey | if they are there at all | 15:19 |
| Remo_A | WaltzingAlong: I can do a version-actualisation, but then it comes: "Ready to Upgrade! Click finish to close the Adept Package Manager and launch the distribution upgrade tool | 15:20 |
| Remo_A | but it doesn't do anything afterwards | 15:20 |
| Remo_A | WaltzingAlong: update still gives me feisty repos... | 15:21 |
| Remo_A | and no changement mossible | 15:21 |
| amigrave | Morrissey: I see there is a glitch between /usr/share/icons and /usr/local/share/icons. I guess a symlink will fix. Keep you informed | 15:21 |
| WaltzingAlong | yeah that distribution tool is what you want but that is just a small program just downloaded during this process. | 15:21 |
| Remo_A | ?? it's not there | 15:22 |
| WaltzingAlong | so it gets downloaded to /tmp/ something but not sure then why it is not running | 15:22 |
| Remo_A | yes it gets downloaded to a temp dir | 15:23 |
| Remo_A | anyone in here who can help? | 15:24 |
| amigrave | Morrissey: in fact it didn't help but I knnow where are the image, I know they exists and are readable and according to strace, ccsm open them ! So I don't understand. Maybe for reason X gnome api can't handle svg anymore ? The images are there :/usr/share/ccsm/images | 15:30 |
| Remo_A | When trying to upgrade from feisty to gutsy gibbon, I get as far as to the version actualisation(go through there and do "finish"), it downloads something into a temporary directory but then stops working. I just see my normal adept window in front of me | 15:31 |
| iz6iyr | ciao a tutti è la prima volta che chatto con linux | 15:31 |
| LjL | !it | iz6iyr | 15:31 |
| ubotu | iz6iyr: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! | 15:31 |
| iz6iyr | thanks | 15:32 |
| iz6iyr | it is my first chatting on linux kubuntu | 15:32 |
| Remo_A | .... | 15:32 |
| Remo_A | everybody knows the standard way, but no one can help, if there appears a problem. | 15:33 |
| LjL | iz6iyr: if you just want to chat a little even if it's not a kubun support question, try #ubuntu-offtopic (in english) too | 15:33 |
| LjL | Remo_A: define "stops working" | 15:33 |
| nosrednaekim | Remo_A: " sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" rom the command line | 15:33 |
| Remo_A | LjL: doesn't proceed, it just closes the version actualisation window and goes back to the adept manager main window. | 15:34 |
| amigrave | Morrissey: so maybe there's a missing package that makes ccsm unable to handle svg anymore | 15:34 |
| LjL | Remo_A: i concur with trying dist-upgrade, BUT make sure that the kubuntu-desktop package is installed, and that you have no third-party repositories enabled | 15:34 |
| Remo_A | nosrednaekim: no updates to be installed there | 15:34 |
| nosrednaekim | Remo_A: then its probably done... | 15:35 |
| LjL | Remo_A: that's probably because your sources.list still has 'feisty', change it | 15:35 |
| LjL | Remo_A: check also "lsb_release -a", in case you already have gutsy ;) | 15:35 |
| Remo_A | LjL: i know it has, but why doesn't it change it itself? | 15:35 |
| Remo_A | LjL it's feisty | 15:35 |
| amigrave | Morrissey: FOUND ! sudo apt-get install librsvg2-common | 15:35 |
| Remo_A | 7.4 feisty | 15:36 |
| LjL | Remo_A: well, it should change it, but i don't know *when* it changes it... if it's supposed to change it only *after* it crashes, then it won't be changed ;) | 15:36 |
| Remo_A | exactly | 15:36 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | say i wanted to grep my konversation log files for all urls ending in .jpg, how would i get grep to *just* get urls and not any other use of that string? i don't know if it can handle wildcards... looks like just regular expressions, which i don't get... | 15:36 |
| Remo_A | ok, I'll do it manually, what are the entries? | 15:36 |
| LjL | Remo_A: the very same as the ones you have already (minus any third-party repos), except change every "feisty" into a "gutsy". that's all there is to it. i can do it for you if you prefer, just pastebin the file | 15:37 |
| Remo_A | ok | 15:37 |
| Remo_A | no no, it's okay | 15:37 |
| Remo_A | but thanks | 15:37 |
| * Jucato notes the use of "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade --install-recommends" if doing upgrade to gutsy from the command line... | 15:38 | |
| Remo_A | you'd regexp through it, wouldn't you ;) | 15:38 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 15:40 |
| Remo_A | LjL: I had some beryl entries in the sources list | 15:40 |
| Remo_A | maybe that caused a prob | 15:40 |
| LjL | !netsplit | 15:40 |
| === neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde | ||
| Daisuke_Laptop | LjL: problem: ubotu split :\ | 15:41 |
| LjL | Daisuke_Laptop: can't do much, the backup bot split as well | 15:41 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | right | 15:41 |
| LjL | i'm sure he'll be back soon | 15:41 |
| BluesKaj | the so called saviour proprietary driver for ati cards is a bust on my setup, no dri or 3d ...google earth is jerky and slow ...I guess they're catering to gamers and the eye candy crowd | 15:42 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | i was just saying, you were trying to use the !netsplit factoid | 15:42 |
| LjL | Daisuke_Laptop: ah well yeah i hadn't noticed it split yet | 15:42 |
| BluesKaj | makes me think feisty might be a better distro for me | 15:43 |
| WaltzingAlong | BluesKaj: which fglrx is that? in repos or from ati? | 15:43 |
| EtienneG | is there an "official" way (ie, no hack or third-party repo) to get desktop effects à la Compiz on Kubuntu ? | 15:44 |
| WaltzingAlong | EtienneG: yes | 15:44 |
| Vermux | !stdout | 15:44 |
| WaltzingAlong | Kubuntu Gutsy is not shipping with compiz-fusion installed (or enabled). It can still be installed though. Follow the instructions for gutsy at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion . for more, ask in #compiz-fusion & see http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/ : EtienneG start here. check the kubuntu how to then the compiz wiki (where is the cube!) | 15:45 |
| Vermux | !stdout | 15:45 |
| intern | excuse me | 15:45 |
| WaltzingAlong | bot is on holiday | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | the restricted driver in gutsy ,the 8.37, 8.40.4 , 8.41.7, 8.2 etc etc , non of them do the job for my onboard x200g | 15:45 |
| EtienneG | WaltzingAlong, thabks a lot, that must be a FAQ | 15:45 |
| Vermux | !stdout | 15:45 |
| WaltzingAlong | EtienneG: enough that i use a command alias for it ;) | 15:45 |
| intern | I need to know how to copy files from this windows disc to a windows harddrive using linux | 15:45 |
| intern | or more specifically, kubuntu | 15:45 |
| Vermux | !stdout | 15:46 |
| ous | hey all | 15:46 |
| intern | I know how to do it in the latest ubuntu, but it seems a tad harder | 15:46 |
| ous | I'm trying to install xubuntu on an old Vaio PCV-200 with a newer 80GB HDD in it | 15:46 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | ous: try #xubuntu | 15:46 |
| WaltzingAlong | intern: how would you do it in ubuntu (gnome)? | 15:46 |
| Vermux | !grep | 15:46 |
| intern | I would click on the computer and click "disk 1" | 15:46 |
| WaltzingAlong | Vermux: bot is on break right now ;) | 15:46 |
| ous | (I know this is the kubuntu channel, but the xubuntu channel seems pretty slow) | 15:47 |
| Vermux | ok. let him rest | 15:47 |
| ous | anyhoo the issue has to do with Grub specifically | 15:47 |
| nosrednaekim | ous: and.... | 15:47 |
| atlfalcons866 | is kde more memory hungry than gnome | 15:47 |
| ous | whenever I boot up Grub fails on Stage 2 with Error 18 | 15:47 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | atlfalcons866: depends on who you ask | 15:48 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | they seem about equal to me | 15:48 |
| WaltzingAlong | atlfalcons866: i find it less so. but you may wish to check xfce (xubuntu-desktop) or fluxbox for that matter | 15:48 |
| atlfalcons866 | i hate gnome its like a rock you cant do anything | 15:48 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | so don't use it | 15:48 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | very simple | 15:48 |
| intern | that's an opinion, I love gnome | 15:48 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | and you can do quite a lot with it | 15:48 |
| atlfalcons866 | i heard kde4 is suppose to be less memory intensive than kde3 | 15:49 |
| intern | :P | 15:49 |
| intern | how do I mount and browse the windows HD? | 15:49 |
| ous | so Error 18 seems to be "Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS" | 15:49 |
| === intern is now known as CaseyIntern | ||
| Daisuke_Laptop | why don't we wait until it comes out to decide that? | 15:49 |
| nosrednaekim | ous: see if your BIOs has anything about HD size | 15:49 |
| atlfalcons866 | intern: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows | 15:49 |
| ous | nosrednaekim: what should I be looking for | 15:50 |
| user_ | AAA!!!!! | 15:51 |
| nosrednaekim | ous: I forget what it is called maybe "wide mode" or something like tta? | 15:51 |
| ous | nosrednaekim: you mean "block mode"? | 15:51 |
| nosrednaekim | ous: maybe... | 15:51 |
| ous | nosrednaekim: or is that LBA? | 15:51 |
| nosrednaekim | LBA I *THINK* has to do with FAT | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | nosrednaekim, which ati card do you use ? | 15:51 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: Xpress1100 | 15:52 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 15:52 |
| ous | coz I read around that disabling block mode works | 15:52 |
| CaseyIntern | how do I open a konqueror window with everything visible? | 15:52 |
| nosrednaekim | ous: you could try :) | 15:53 |
| CaseyIntern | sudo -i konqueror? | 15:53 |
| nosrednaekim | CaseyIntern: what do you mean everything visible? | 15:53 |
| CaseyIntern | like, I need to look at / | 15:53 |
| ous | I did that but it didn't work | 15:53 |
| CaseyIntern | and everything in it | 15:53 |
| BluesKaj | nosrednaekim, that 8.42 driver doesn't do 'dick' on my x200g ... the default retricted driver actually works better | 15:53 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: no clue... I don't even know how I got mine working really... I tried acouple things and rebooted and it wroked finally :) | 15:54 |
| ous | I was going to play with pio modes and UDMA modes and the such to see if that works | 15:54 |
| WaltzingAlong | CaseyIntern: open konqueror like normal, then view/show hidden files | 15:54 |
| ous | I guess I'll go and do that.. | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | nosrednaekim, the restricted driver is in the system settings /advanced section | 15:55 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: yeah... I know | 15:55 |
| nosrednaekim | I'm talking about the 8.42 | 15:55 |
| CaseyIntern | what is the command for konqueror, just for my info | 15:56 |
| nosrednaekim | CaseyIntern: konqueror | 15:56 |
| CaseyIntern | hmm | 15:56 |
| CaseyIntern | that doesn't do anything | 15:56 |
| nosrednaekim | why? | 15:56 |
| BluesKaj | I have a feeling the ati proprietary driver doesn't load at start up due to a setting in the xorg or modules file , but I dunno exactly how to fix it . | 15:56 |

| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: try using the 8.42 driver and pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 15:58 |
| WaltzingAlong | CaseyIntern: no do not run sudo konqueror kdesu koqonqueror or kdesudo konqueror would be better | 16:00 |
| CaseyIntern | okay, new question | 16:06 |
| CaseyIntern | how do I remount cdrom? | 16:06 |
| lordlamer | hi. i want to submit 2 bugs at the installer from the cd. where can i do that? the two problems are that the translations in the installer are not always translated. most buttons are in english. like cancel or next. and the other thing is that if the install is running the progressbar is away if i start some other apps at install. | 16:11 |

| Morrissey | ous: /boot/grub/menu.1st ... and "grub" command shell will help you do that ... you should read some howtos | 16:31 |
| coordinator | GuHHH, ln works? | 16:31 |
| GuHHH | coordinator: it says file exists, if i create it, if i dont, it cant | 16:32 |
| Morrissey | GuHHH, ln -s /var/run/mysqld/mysql.sock /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock | 16:32 |
| ous | Morrissey: would you recommend one? | 16:32 |
| Morrissey | ous, nope, I'm sure google will | 16:32 |

| CaseyIntern | my cdrom is mounting, but no files are showing up | 16:36 |
| Morrissey | Ange|us, geez ... that looks terrible ... looks like a bug in the compiler | 16:36 |
| Morrissey | CaseyIntern, where is it mounted? in konsole, go to /media/cdromX (where X is whatever X is there, if any) ... and check there | 16:36 |
| GuHHH | Morrissey: strangly it works now... lol :) | 16:37 |
| GuHHH | Morrissey: thanks | 16:37 |

| harmental80 | have anyone tried kde4? | 16:41 |
| Morrissey | BluesKaj, you have no (EE) right? That paste was huge :) Try to see if "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE" says | 16:43 |
| BluesKaj | Morrissey, (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER | 16:44 |
| Morrissey | harmental80, didn't work here for some reason ... it crashed at boot, but you can give it a go! remember to set it up as a an alternative | 16:44 |
| Morrissey | BluesKaj, then you have no errors ... give me "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver" (give me the output that matters, ie: fgrlx, vesa ...) | 16:45 |
| coordinator | is there a way to set dolphin's default view to "details"? | 16:45 |

| === ubuntu is now known as close2__ | ||
| BluesKaj | Morrissey, installed (or thought i did) the new ATI proprietary 8.42 driver on my x200g onboard graphics card , but it doesn't seem to be loading the driver and there's no way of implementing it in sys settings Monitor&Display | 16:48 |
| close2__ | hello, I have installed ubuntu-server with software-raid and lvm2 on a machine | 16:48 |
| close2__ | as the machine hangs when copying large data to a usb-storage device, i wanted to try my kubuntu-live cd gg | 16:49 |
| close2__ | but I am unable to mount my raid1 lvm2 device | 16:49 |
| BluesKaj | Morrissey, anyway i have to go for a while ...plenty of leaves to rake ...BBL | 16:49 |
| close2__ | I activated the raid1 with mdadm -A /dev/md1 which worked | 16:50 |
| close2__ | but when I want to mount the /dev/md1 I get mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member' | 16:51 |
| Morrissey | close2__, is it ext3? | 16:51 |
| close2__ | vgchange ROOT -a y has warnings | 16:51 |
| close2__ | yes it is | 16:51 |
| Morrissey | close2__, remember to set the filesystem as well ... (mount -t <ext3, ext2, ntfs ...) /dev/md1 /mount/to/dir | 16:52 |
| close2__ | doesn't work | 16:52 |
| Morrissey | same error? | 16:52 |
| close2__ | apparently lvm2 did add another header | 16:52 |
| close2__ | wrong fs type... | 16:52 |
| Morrissey | oh, thats strange | 16:52 |
| Morrissey | use fdisk to confir | 16:52 |
| Morrissey | m | 16:52 |
| Morrissey | sudo "fdisk /dev/md1" and "p" and "enter" to check systems | 16:53 |
| close2__ | well i googled and found out, that I have to active the lvm2 volume | 16:53 |
| close2__ | (it is "mapped" via lvm2 to /dev/mapper/ROOTROOT | 16:53 |
| close2__ | ) | 16:53 |
| Morrissey | ok .. | 16:53 |
| close2__ | but I can't activate: /proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel? | 16:54 |
| skole | Anyone on DRM files? | 16:54 |
| Morrissey | close2__, you are not using dmraid? | 16:54 |
| close2__ | I don't know, what is dmraid? | 16:54 |
| Morrissey | close2__, try: "sudo apt-get install dmraid | sudo dmraidy -ay" and see if it activates it | 16:54 |
| Morrissey | | = && ... sorry :) | 16:55 |
| skole | how to use DRM protected files anyone? | 16:55 |
| Morrissey | skole, you cant ... google it | 16:55 |
| skole | you shure? | 16:56 |
| Morrissey | yes | 16:56 |
| skole | thats a pity! | 16:56 |
| close2__ | aptitude search raid doesn't find anything | 16:56 |

| Morrissey | in /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 16:57 |
| skole | s there someone working with it | 16:57 |
| skole | ? | 16:57 |

| mallize | can someone tell me how to get klipper to run on startup? | 16:57 |
| Morrissey | mallize, "ln -s /usr/bin/klipper /home/<username>/.kde/Autostart" | 16:57 |
| mallize | thanks | 16:58 |
| close2__ | IIRC you could also save the session with klipper started | 16:58 |
| Morrissey | close2__, ok ... heres your guide. open /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the # form the multiverse repo ... then do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install dmraid && sudo dmraid -ay" and tell me your output | 16:58 |
| close2__ | Morrissey: No RAID disks | 16:59 |
| Morrissey | close2__, thats your output? | 16:59 |
| close2__ | Morrissey: yes | 16:59 |
| close2__ | but my raids seem to run already | 16:59 |
| close2__ | it's the lvm2 layer that doesn't work | 16:59 |
| close2__ | Morrissey: [ 1615.612000] raid1: raid set md1 active with 2 out of 2 mirrors | 17:00 |

| Morrissey | close2__, sorry dude, he's not present ... Im using raid0, don't know how you would approach to activate lvm2 .. | 17:02 |
| close2__ | arash: why do you want to compile it? | 17:02 |
| close2__ | arash: there seems to be a deb-package somewhere: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=193984 | 17:03 |
| Morrissey | close2__, don't know what that means actually ... but anyways .. | 17:03 |
| arash | close2__: I want 1.0.0 :p, is it there? | 17:03 |
| close2__ | arash: yes | 17:03 |
| skole | It looks like it is the linux people that don't want DRM to be supported. Thats stupid | 17:03 |
| close2__ | Morrissey: i will try another live-cd | 17:03 |
| Morrissey | do that | 17:03 |
| close2__ | Morrissey: and never again use lvm2 | 17:03 |
| Morrissey | hehehe | 17:04 |
| Morrissey | its quite complex | 17:04 |
| arash | close2__: I can aswell follow those instruction with Kubuntu too, right? | 17:04 |
| Morrissey | arash, for furhter notice: "tar zxvf <file>.tar.gz && cd <file> && ./configure && make && sudo make install" ... that should get most programs compiled | 17:05 |
| close2__ | arash: yes | 17:05 |
| poison--- | anyone had issues with pentium d ? | 17:05 |
| poison--- | after a clean alternative install, x doesnt boot saying my cpu frequency isnt supported | 17:05 |

| close2__ | Morrissey: I just rerun vgchange ROOT..... and it worked, without error | 17:06 |
| close2__ | Morrissey: it seems as if the first run didn't wait long enough for the module to get loaded | 17:07 |
| poison--- | well, its a pentium d 2.8 | 17:07 |
| Morrissey | close2__, oh .. should have though of that actually S: | 17:07 |
| poison--- | it worked before with feisty | 17:07 |
| arash | close2__: hmm, Just wondering, If I want 1.0.0, they say I should go to getdeb.net right? | 17:07 |
| poison--- | and even after the upgrade | 17:07 |
| Morrissey | poison---, I was just joking around :) lemme check for you | 17:07 |
| poison--- | just wont work with the fresh install | 17:07 |
| poison--- | weird | 17:07 |
| close2__ | arash: yes, why? | 17:07 |

| barbaros | j and k if it's not possible they may be ctrl+j and ctrl+k too | 17:14 |
| arash | close2__: oh right, you hvae to download and then run (I use Firefox, though about switching to Konqueror though) | 17:15 |
| barbaros | is there a way to assign those keys to application specific shortcuts ? | 17:15 |
| keda | that will override my deafult interface? | 17:15 |

| keda | arash: what will linuxdcpp do? | 17:18 |
| close2__ | jasonago: and the scripts need to have the execute-permissions | 17:19 |
| arash | keda: its a downloading program | 17:19 |
| jasonago | does the synaptic downloads the perl package from the net? or it is enabled by default? | 17:19 |
| close2__ | arash: direct-connect? | 17:19 |
| arash | close2__: yea | 17:19 |
| Morrissey | jasonago, dont know actually .. try .. and close2__ is correct. make sure you "chmod u+x file" first | 17:19 |
| keda | arash:why would i need that? | 17:19 |
| keda | How does konqueror render the fonts? | 17:19 |

| Morrissey | Xacarith, stop refeering to yourself in 3.person ... thats just annoying. I can see you are new to linux. Your problem is you have to have space between "sdc1" and "/media/storage" ... your command should be EXACLY like this: "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1/ /media/storage" (dont know why you tried /dev/dev/) ... | 18:43 |
| Xacarith | I'm not use to using the commands yet | 18:44 |
| Morrissey | Xacarith, then do it ... press "alt - f2" and type that command | 18:44 |
| Morrissey | hellhound, still stuck on that huh ... let me give it a second go, just a sec | 18:44 |
| Xacarith | failed Invalid argument The device does not have a valid ntfs | 18:44 |

| wastedfluid | frojnd1: Most of the time, if you don't blacklist the driver that didn't work for you - it'll continue to be loaded... | 19:38 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, i have blacklisted bcm43xx | 19:38 |
| wastedfluid | Ok. do this, just in case: sudo rmmod bcm42xx | 19:39 |
| wastedfluid | and then try a : sudo modprobe ndiswrapper | 19:39 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, ive followed this how to: http://www.linuxscrew.com/2007/09/19/get-wi-fi-working-on-dell-inspiron-1501-with-ubuntu/ | 19:39 |
| wastedfluid | let me read it | 19:39 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, I made a fresh install of feisty | 19:39 |
| lee986321 | eh i just don't try to load the drivers any more :(, and compiz is workin great on my system..thouh its in 32 bit mode | 19:39 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, and after this how to there is no wireless option in my network manager | 19:39 |
| wastedfluid | frojnd1: What driver does ndiswrapper -l say is loaded? From what you typed, it was everything except th driver | 19:40 |
| wastedfluid | it should say (drivername): driver installed | 19:40 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, bcmwl15 : driver installed | 19:40 |
| Doobeh | and run 'sudo modprobe ndiswrapper' | 19:40 |
| wastedfluid | Ok; so bcmwl15 was the driver you wanted to load.. right? | 19:40 |
| frojnd1 | Doobeh, ndiswrapper is loaded | 19:41 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, correct | 19:41 |
| wastedfluid | Well.. I don't know what to tell you bud. | 19:41 |
| Doobeh | can you see it when you try iwconfig? | 19:41 |
| wastedfluid | Did you match up lspci's numbers:numbers for your specific card? I know you followed a how to, but sometimes people message up. | 19:41 |
| frojnd1 | Doobeh, sorry driver wasn't loaded :S | 19:42 |
| wastedfluid | ......lol | 19:42 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, what do u mean? | 19:42 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, Doobeh I thought it loads automatically.. | 19:43 |
| Doobeh | nah, its can do, but you need to set that up | 19:43 |
| Doobeh | its/it | 19:43 |
| wastedfluid | frojnd1: Sometimes it'll load automatically, sometimes it won't.. I blacklisted my old driver, and I edited my 'networking' init.d to modprobe ndiswrapper | 19:43 |
| limex | Anyone had any problem upgrading to Gutsy ? The installer keep disappearing. Anyone has the same problem ? | 19:43 |
| Doobeh | so you're all sorted now wastedfluid? | 19:43 |
| wastedfluid | I didn't have any problems. | 19:43 |
| wastedfluid | I was helping frojnd1... | 19:43 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, Doobeh what's next ? | 19:43 |
| frojnd1 | :) | 19:43 |
| Doobeh | hehe | 19:44 |
| Doobeh | :) | 19:44 |
| wastedfluid | frojnd1: If the driver wasn't loaded, sudo modprobe ndiswrapper | 19:44 |
| Doobeh | I'm easily confused.. | 19:44 |
| lee986321 | mmm, i loaded from a down loaded disk | 19:44 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, done | 19:44 |
| wastedfluid | Ok | 19:44 |
| wastedfluid | Now, try to connect | 19:44 |
| wastedfluid | if it works, you'll probably want to edit your networking init.d script to 'modprobe ndiswrapper' | 19:44 |
| luca | hi everyone | 19:44 |
| wastedfluid | that's what I've always done | 19:44 |
| wastedfluid | hi luca | 19:45 |
| luca | I do have to connect to a hidden wpa2 network. How would I make my box identify them and connect automatically? I have already set up knetworkmanager to connect | 19:45 |
| luca | hi wastedfluid | 19:45 |
| wastedfluid | i've never connected to a hidden network.. so I dunno what to tell you | 19:45 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, it doesn't connect :s | 19:45 |
| wastedfluid | frojnd1: Are you sure it's your card? Sometimes, I have to reset my router. | 19:46 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, but if I type route there are some nubers I can see router | 19:46 |
| wastedfluid | I can rmmod ndiswrapper, and modprobe ndiswrapper.. and it still won't connect. I have to unplug my router, and plug it back up.. and it seems to work. | 19:46 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, just a sec I'll paste output of card and what driver I've grabed | 19:46 |
| wastedfluid | Well, I don't know what driver you need. IF you're following that tuturoial - it's probably the right driver. Try resetting your router. | 19:47 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, i followed just for installing and loading | 19:47 |
| frojnd1 | I have drifferent card | 19:48 |
| wastedfluid | ......... | 19:48 |
| wastedfluid | Oh man. | 19:48 |
| wastedfluid | Ok, let me get you the right tutorial. | 19:48 |
| * Doobeh rolls wastedfluid a cookie | 19:48 | |
| wastedfluid | thanks. :-) | 19:48 |
| soon | Does anyone here have a PDA which syncs well with Korganizer / Kontact etc ?? | 19:49 |
| wastedfluid | frojnd1: Go to http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,installation/ - Look for the "Install Windows Driver" part.. and just do the part to look up your lspci output for the corresponding windows driver that someone has tested+verified. | 19:49 |

| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, I have this card: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42275/ and for it this driver: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd&releaseid=R151517&SystemID=INSPIRONI6400/E1505&servicetag=&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=9805&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=9&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=5&fileid=202136 and on that page u gave me there is something about alternate driver when I do ndiswrapper -l so I have to | 19:55 |
| frojnd1 | fix this. But driver is the right one | 19:55 |
| wastedfluid | I don't see what you're saying. | 19:55 |
| wastedfluid | What kind of card you have? | 19:55 |
| SlimG | Is there a picasa alternative based on KDE ? | 19:56 |
| SlimG | One that atleast can upload to picasa galleries? | 19:56 |
| wastedfluid | Ok. I acutally clicked your links. lol | 19:59 |
| wastedfluid | frojnd1: Try "lspci -n | grep 0b:00.0" | 19:59 |
| wastedfluid | That should return the correction number for you. | 19:59 |
| wastedfluid | And you search that number on the ndiswrapper site for the correct driver. | 20:00 |
| frojnd1 | wastedfluid, 14e4:4311 (rev 01) nothing found | 20:02 |

| Authority | steelsnake: it's managing my wired connection just fine | 22:37 |

| steelsnake | i had that problem myself a few times :) if in doubt, open a console, kill KNetworkManager and networkmanager, restart networkmanager and then KNetworkmanager and see if that helps | 22:38 |

| aaron | ah | 22:59 |
| aaron | same kernel then? I don't follow these things | 22:59 |
| mikes2 | No new kernel in gutsy | 22:59 |
| BluesKaj | nosrednaekim, no output | 23:00 |
| jmichaelx | no new kernel in gutsy? what are you talking about? | 23:00 |
| mikes2 | aaron: After a month or two of updates it should be an ok release | 23:00 |
| jmichaelx | ahh | 23:00 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: hmmm... :) do you have a section in your Xorg that give 666 permissions to dri? | 23:01 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: anything at all in /dev/dri? | 23:01 |
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: 22-14=very new :) | 23:01 |
| BluesKaj | no 666 dri in th xorg file | 23:01 |
| jmichaelx | pretty new, lol | 23:01 |
| mikes2 | Little too new | 23:01 |
| jmichaelx | probably... wireless in gutsy is really sucking bad for me.. plus several other smaller glitches. i am not sure it is all kernel related, but some of it surely is | 23:02 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: oh.. NM... I don't have one either. | 23:03 |
| BluesKaj | nosrednaekim, nothing in /dev/dri | 23:03 |
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: Kernel is very new and not totally sorted is my gut feeling,But i have found several small glitches in kde\ | 23:03 |
| erjon | kubuntu italian ? | 23:04 |
| milian | hi guys | 23:04 |
| jmichaelx | usb drives not mounting if left connected... i am always having to unplaug, then plug in AFTER booting up | 23:04 |
| Daisuke_Ido | perhaps someone has an idea... say i want to grep all of my log files for URLs so i can run them through wget, how would i even start going about it? the problem is that i know JACK about regex's :\ | 23:04 |
| erjon | hi cerco suport in italiano per kubuntu grazie | 23:05 |
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: I use Sidux as well and it is rock solid | 23:05 |
| BluesKaj | brb | 23:05 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i should narrow that down. all urls that lead to, say... a jpeg | 23:05 |
| jmichaelx | i have thought about giving sidux a spin... how different is it from kanotix? | 23:05 |
| mikes2 | very similar | 23:05 |
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: very fast,,and has smxi for non-free,,ati,nvidia ,google earth etc etc | 23:06 |
| steelsnake | Daisuke_Ido: "grep -i http\: /var/log/*" maybe? | 23:06 |
| jmichaelx | can you dist-upgrade from release to release in sidux? | 23:06 |
| mikes2 | Yes | 23:06 |
| jmichaelx | cool | 23:06 |
| mikes2 | no probs | 23:06 |
| mikes2 | seemless | 23:06 |
| erjon | ies4linux-2.5beta2 can u help me haw to install this ies4linux-2.5beta2 | 23:07 |
| jmichaelx | can you install from debian unstable repos? | 23:07 |
| jmichaelx | install packages* | 23:07 |
| mikes2 | yes | 23:07 |
| jmichaelx | sweet | 23:07 |
| mikes2 | and etch | 23:07 |
| mikes2 | and lenny | 23:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | steelsnake: that doesn't take care of narrowing down the output to just strings that are http://*jpg | 23:07 |
| jmichaelx | yeah, i should check sidux out. | 23:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but to my knowledge, grep doesn't do wildcards | 23:08 |
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: 10 min install | 23:08 |
| jmichaelx | i like kubuntu a lot, but i really hate the wireless situation. a card will work under one release, but not the next, but then might work again in the next | 23:08 |
| steelsnake | you can always pipe it, Daisuke_Ido... depends on the log format tho... if the .jpg is always at the end, this would work: | 23:08 |
| steelsnake | grep -i http\: /var/log/* | grep \.jpg\$ | 23:08 |
| steelsnake | er | 23:09 |
| steelsnake | grep -i http\: /var/log/* | grep \.jpg$ | 23:09 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ooh | 23:09 |
| steelsnake | dang i am out of my mind today... | 23:09 |
| steelsnake | grep -i http\: /var/log/* | grep -i \.jpg$ | 23:09 |
| steelsnake | there :) | 23:09 |
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: i like this release and feel it will get better in time,but so many probs for a major distro | 23:09 |
| mikes2 | "bugs" | 23:09 |
| milian | sorry, bad connection - were my messages send? | 23:09 |
| BluesKaj | nosrednaekim, it's odd but there's no 'modules" section which lists Load " glx" , "dri" etc in the xorg file | 23:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that works well | 23:10 |
| jmichaelx | i totally wish they had delayed the release... things like usb drive mounting issues and wireless issues hurt things badly. i realize wireless is often a problem in linux, but for commonly supported cards, it should not be like this | 23:10 |
| mikes2 | BluesKaj: Same :( | 23:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | can i pipe that output as the urls for wget? | 23:11 |
| BluesKaj | mikes2, i find that weird :P | 23:11 |
| mikes2 | BluesKaj: you have Nvidia? | 23:11 |
| BluesKaj | ati | 23:12 |
| mikes2 | hmm | 23:12 |
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: try Sidux Gaia live cd and run "smxi" wicked :) | 23:12 |
| barbaros | how can i install mlnet core in kubuntu ? | 23:13 |
| barbaros | i ve installed kmldonkey with sudo apt-get install kmldonkey | 23:13 |
| barbaros | but when i issue whereis or which mlnet no directory is listed | 23:13 |
| BluesKaj | I have a copy of the xorg file used in feisty and it lists a whole lot of stuff to "load " in it , unless it's hidden in gutsy | 23:13 |
| jmichaelx | yeah, i may have a look this weekend. this desktop will remain kubuntu, but i am thinking of changing my laptop to something else | 23:13 |
| barbaros | but kmldonkey installation prompts me for a directory for mlnet core | 23:13 |
| BluesKaj | barbaros, run mlnet in the konsole and it loads the core | 23:14 |
| BluesKaj | barbaros, you'll have to do so everytime you wish to use mldonkey | 23:15 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: I think those are loded automatically | 23:16 |
| === miles_ is now known as MilesG | ||
| mikes2 | jmichaelx: 7.04 was a better release | 23:17 |
| grainwave | hello, while resizing a partition, gparted crashed. long story short i have a 300gb partition with 100gb used space. But no files show up on this partition? Any ideas anyone? | 23:17 |
| BluesKaj | barbaros, just type " mlnet " in the konsole (without the quotes) | 23:17 |
| jmichaelx | mikes2: absolutely no question | 23:17 |
| mikes2 | grainwave: formatt with windows cd/fat32 | 23:17 |
| steelsnake | ewwwww fat32 | 23:18 |
| mikes2 | grainwave: Can Gparted not see it now?\ | 23:18 |
| steelsnake | i think the files are lost, grainwave... if they don't show up after the crash | 23:18 |
| grainwave | gparted can see the drive | 23:19 |
| aaron | is it a good idea to take new versions of cfg files? | 23:19 |
| mikes2 | grainwave: Backed up important data/ | 23:19 |
| aaron | when apt-get asks about them? | 23:19 |
| steelsnake | i would, aaron, but that's me... trusting... :) | 23:20 |
| BluesKaj | nosrednaekim, gonna try them anyway, bbiab | 23:20 |
| aaron | heh | 23:20 |
| grainwave | Important data is backed up just lots of movies. If they are lost what is the best way to recover space from drive? Format? | 23:21 |
| steelsnake | delete the partition, create a new one | 23:21 |
| mikes2 | pclos has a new release soon,i have had a play from testing ,It is solid,and so sorted for a very small team | 23:21 |
| mikes2 | hmm | 23:21 |
| mikes2 | No sense | 23:21 |
| grainwave | cool thanks | 23:21 |
| MarcC-backroom | why do my gnome apps like Streamtuner and XChat stay on the screen when it turns black as I log off? | 23:22 |
| sven__ | by god.. is there ANY way I can have that strigi demon behave, without jabbing a wooden pin through its chest? | 23:25 |
| MilesG | are there any programmers in here? | 23:25 |
| sven__ | as in, right now strigi takes, every 10 minutes, for about 5 minnutes 80% of my CPU.... | 23:25 |
| sven__ | is there any way I can configure strigi to... relax? | 23:25 |
| sven__ | take less CPU | 23:25 |
| MilesG | AmyRose: are you a programmer? | 23:25 |
| sven__ | work less often | 23:25 |
| sven__ | stuff like that? | 23:26 |
| blendtux | just close it, and change your settings that it wont start up at boot time sven__ | 23:26 |
| sven__ | MilesG, Thats an original pickup line.. | 23:26 |
| MilesG | nah, i just wanted to ask AmyRose cause that person knows everything | 23:27 |
| sven__ | blendtux, right.. which will cause it not to index at all.. thats like, from 100% to 0%,, I'd like to be at.. 25% or so.. :) | 23:27 |
| MilesG | sven__: are you a programmer? | 23:27 |
| steelsnake | just ask the question, MilesG | 23:27 |
| blendtux | yes i thought so, it was just a sugestion | 23:27 |
| sven__ | MilesG, considdering that I have not seen her say anything yet.. :) | 23:27 |
| BluesKaj | glxinfo | grep direct :output= direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect | 23:27 |
| sven__ | MilesG, and yeah, Im a programmer | 23:27 |
| sven__ | who isnt | 23:27 |
| MilesG | i had an interview today, and they asked me to do a couple logic programs on paper in java | 23:28 |
| sven__ | so better.. where or how can I configure strigi?? | 23:28 |
| MilesG | and i got the last one wrong, at first, but then i corrected it while talking it out with the interviewer, does that look bad? | 23:28 |
| * MilesG fresh out of college | 23:28 | |
| steelsnake | MilesG: depends on the interviewer... i wouldn't hold it against you since you did catch it | 23:28 |
| AmyRose | MilesG: Sorry, I am not a programmer. | 23:29 |
| steelsnake | was it a standard algo, like quicksort or somesuch? | 23:29 |
| sven__ | MilesG, kind of off-topic, isnt tit? | 23:29 |
| AmyRose | I'm just a somewhat experienced end-user | 23:29 |
| MilesG | it was like a college text book question, like a story problem | 23:29 |
| sven__ | MilesG, anyway, since EVERYBODY makes mistakes, why would it look bad? you noticed it, you corrected it.. making mistakes isnt bad.. not acknnowledging them or fixing them is.. | 23:29 |
| BluesKaj | that so called wonderful new 8.42 ati driver does nothing at all for my setup...it actually made thigs worse | 23:29 |
| MilesG | i guess, i thought they were a linux shop, but they only deploy to linux servers, so its not really what im looking for | 23:30 |
| * steelsnake agrees with sven | 23:31 | |
| dvayanu | does someone know how to force ubuntu 7.10 to recognize ipod touch? | 23:31 |
| steelsnake | BluesKaj: truthfully... i don't really like ATI drivers in linux... the open ones don't work for modern cards, the closed ones just plain suck. | 23:32 |
| benoit | bonsoir | 23:32 |
| RCG1984 | hello all, in what directory does the package manager install software? | 23:32 |
| steelsnake | you mean where it downloads them to, or where it actually installs packages to? | 23:33 |
| AmyRose | dvayanu: Sorry, the only thing I can come up with is "Boycott Apple" | 23:33 |
| benoit | est ce que quelqu'un pourrait m'aider pour régler un pb daffichage ? | 23:33 |
| AmyRose | !fr | benoit | 23:33 |
| ubotu | benoit: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. | 23:33 |
| RCG1984 | steelsnake: I mean where does it actually install the packages to | 23:34 |
| steelsnake | ok... that depends on the package, RCG1984. Most go somewhere into the /usr tree i'd think | 23:34 |
| RCG1984 | steelsnake: ok, I'm just wondering because I can't find a package for gtk+ and I'm about to manually compile and than install it | 23:35 |
| BluesKaj | steelsnake, i had perfectly fine setup with 3d and dri , working just fine on feisty ...seriously considering reverting back ...this so called upgrade to gutsy sucks for my system , I'm afraid :( | 23:35 |
| MilesG | RCG1984: i think it might be /usr/lib | 23:35 |
| RCG1984 | if i leave the --prefix flag out of ./configure will it automatically install the libraries into what ever the bash profile is set to? | 23:36 |
| steelsnake | yeh didn't have much luck upgrading either BluesKaj... got it working now, minus a royal glitch on my lappy... sorry to say gutsy isn't what it should be | 23:36 |
| steelsnake | yes RCG1984 | 23:37 |
| steelsnake | usually some /usr/local tree | 23:37 |
| steelsnake | er wait | 23:37 |
| steelsnake | i misread that | 23:37 |
| BluesKaj | yup, steelsnake unfortunately i agree :( | 23:37 |
| steelsnake | not based on the bash profile, i think... i'm not 100% sure but it'd depend on the configure defaults | 23:37 |
| * jmichaelx agree with BluesKaj as well | 23:37 | |
| RCG1984 | steelsnake: would you recommend I leave the --prefix flag out? | 23:38 |
| * jmichaelx has three machines using rt2500 wireless, and has had to do some headbanging | 23:39 | |
| steelsnake | i would, RCG1984, makes later removal easier (thinking that gtk+ might have a make uninstall command) | 23:39 |
| MilesG | RCG1984: i thought it got compiled into the directory that you ran ./configure from, which is usually the directory you un-tarred | 23:40 |
| steelsnake | it compiles there, yes... but install usually moves it elsewher | 23:40 |
| RCG1984 | MilesG: I have no idea what's why i'm wondering where it will install it to | 23:40 |
| MilesG | RCG1984: im unsure, but im trying to confirm what i thought happened | 23:41 |
| steelsnake | i didn't have many probs with wireless, but i don't use wifi anymore so i am not a good judge of that part yet | 23:41 |
| RCG1984 | I'll give this install a roll and see what happends | 23:41 |
| steelsnake | well, check ./configure --help, it'll tell you where it'll install | 23:41 |
| MilesG | steelsnake: "make install" moves the binaries into typically /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin, correct? | 23:41 |
| RCG1984 | alright | 23:41 |
| steelsnake | usually /usr/local subtree | 23:41 |
| steelsnake | yep MilesG | 23:41 |
| jmichaelx | steelsnake: i have things working (sort of) in gutsy, but gutsy has so far been a step backwards | 23:42 |
| jmichaelx | hopefull that will be fixed soon | 23:42 |
| steelsnake | oh yes... i hate having to reset xorg.conf each time i reboot ~laughs~... damn gutsy messes it up at each boot, haven't bothered to figure out why yet | 23:42 |
| steelsnake | only on lappy, desktop is fine... thank goddess, that one would suck to rebuild each time | 23:43 |
| BluesKaj | we can only hope ...all the hype about the new and improved ati graphics driver is a real disappointment tho | 23:43 |
| sonic | what are the benifits of switching to the 386 kernel vs the generic one? | 23:43 |
| BluesKaj | bbiab | 23:43 |
| jmichaelx | steelsnake: that is strange... you are running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg each time you reboot? | 23:43 |
| MarcC-backroom | does anybody else see the old thumbnails in kdmtheme? | 23:44 |
| jmichaelx | sonic: probably none , unless you are using very old hardware | 23:44 |
| steelsnake | might run automatically, but no, i don't intentionally do that anyway | 23:45 |
| jmichaelx | steelsnake: if you would run that, your problem might be solved. maybe you have done it already | 23:45 |
| === n1l0 is now known as n1lo | ||
| steelsnake | i'll give it a shot jmichaelx | 23:46 |
| RCG1984 | well i ran into an error: checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables | 23:48 |
| steelsnake | one saving grace: hydra setup seems to work a lot better on gutsy... on edgy it crashed once in a week or so | 23:48 |
| steelsnake | ahhh you need the build-essentials RCG1984 | 23:48 |
| steelsnake | sudo apt-get install build-essentials | 23:49 |
| RCG1984 | ahh | 23:49 |
| steelsnake | i hope i spelled that right from memory :) | 23:49 |
| RCG1984 | steelsnake: yep you are correct :-) | 23:50 |
| RCG1984 | ift gtk+ was packaged this would make my life so much easier | 23:51 |
| steelsnake | i'd think it is... | 23:52 |
| RCG1984 | i did a search for it but didn't run across anything | 23:52 |
| steelsnake | thats such a common basic package after all | 23:52 |
| RCG1984 | I'm using Adept Manager to find packages and I didn't come across anything | 23:52 |
| steelsnake | hmmm quickly running a package check... | 23:53 |
| steelsnake | you just need the lib, right? not the dev files? | 23:54 |
| myrdos | Why does everything in my K-Menu look like this _: Entries in K-menu: Konversation app name, IRC client d... | 23:54 |
| RCG1984 | well, I'm trying to use php-gtk | 23:54 |
| RCG1984 | most likely just the library files | 23:54 |
| steelsnake | libgtk2.0-common seems to be the package you need, isn't it? | 23:55 |
| RCG1984 | hrm | 23:55 |
| RCG1984 | apparently I have no idea what i'm doing when trying to find a package | 23:56 |
| RCG1984 | I thought it would be listed as gtk+ lol | 23:56 |
| steelsnake | no worries, i've been known to miss packages too ~laughs~... even when they stared me right in the face in a few cases ;) | 23:57 |
| RCG1984 | it looks like i already have it installed :-) | 23:58 |
