[00:00] biovore: Good point, but do you know if KDE would accept it if I edited the icon to be a rectangle? Cause the icons it use now are perfect squares [00:00] Ah...other kernel works... === BeerSerc is now known as BeerSerc_away [00:00] profoX` I am not that skilled haha [00:00] so the kernel upgrade failed and I was left with a dead system...hmm... not good..meh! [00:00] Photocopy: icons can be in any shape [00:00] Photocopy: the png loader should handel.. there square because thats what makes sense.. the hard requirement for it.. [00:00] Tm_T I know that, but will the panel scrunch it into a square? [00:01] biovore: Thanks.. ill try looking for those icon [00:01] The only other way would to do some coding.. [00:01] Photocopy: no [00:02] Photocopy: if you mean cropping [00:02] Tm_T I actually meant "squishing" for my lack of a better term [00:02] Photocopy: scaling? [00:02] like it being stretched [00:02] yeah scaled into a square [00:02] Hi folks... still sorting out how repositories work: if I'm using 6.06 and want to install the latest version of K3B is there an easy way to do with with a GUI? [00:03] why are you using 6.06? [00:03] well you get whats in the repos [00:03] there is newer stable.... >_> [00:03] Photocopy: well no, it will be scaled to fit to room it has to use, but no, it wont be reshaped [00:03] 6.06 is long term support.. [00:03] good [00:03] kat: I would just keep the version that's available if you choose to keep 6.06 [00:03] ^ that stable [00:03] 7.10 is a short term release.. [00:03] I'm scared about upgrading :( [00:03] yes [00:03] its good to be scared about upgrading [00:04] upgrading is a snap... ive done it... once [00:04] kat: with gui you said? [00:04] I have computers using 6.06 here.. [00:04] lol [00:04] i'm guessing it's not kosher to start using feisty repositories while on dapper... [00:04] kat: not in easy way unfortunately [00:05] kat: and no, you're not supported to jump over versions :( [00:05] kat : don't use Feisty repos on dapper. you'll break something i'm sure ;) [00:05] i've got synaptic and adept... so i guess if i want to test out the new version of k3b, my best best is download source, make and install? [00:05] it may not even compile [00:06] hrm [00:06] kat : what version of K3B do you have now? [00:06] any other decent burning software out there? [00:06] nope [00:06] cdrecord :) [00:06] current version of k3b is 0.12.something [00:06] not in my book anyway ;) [00:06] kat: arson (very simple) [00:06] i dunno, just uninstalled it [00:06] might not fix probs though, having permission issues... the auto conifiguring tool in k3b didn't fix it either [00:07] kat: apt-cache show k3b [00:07] shows details about the pkg [00:07] neato thanks... 0.12.14 [00:08] learn a new command every day [00:08] Are there any program like virtualbox and vmware that can run 3d-effects? [00:08] if you linux for another 10 years.. might learn them all.. [00:08] Its kinda like pokenmon.. lolz [00:08] Are there any program like virtualbox and vmware that can run 3d-effects?

[00:51] Monkii, ah thanks...that's the magic procedure... see.. me being under GEntoo for the past 5 years must have turned my brains to mush :P [00:51] hey guys was wondering does the live cd allow accessing of ntfs partitioned drives?

[00:52] Monkii, mweheheh [00:52] may I paste my errors to you? [00:52] sure [00:53] weird, guess it is something to do with k3b then maybe [00:53] you are using rewitables are you kat ? [00:53] Monkii, yeah, it's french, I am setting this up for a friend from France [00:53] Monkii, anything fammiliar to you [00:54] Hmmm... mon francais c'est terrible... [00:55] and what happens when you apt-get install those 4 packages? [00:55] when is the next gentoo coming out 2700.0 was april [00:55] 1007.0 i mean [00:56] god, 2007.0 [00:56] Monkii, ...uhm...euh...let's TRY! :P [00:56] ok! hang on... [00:57] @kyron - Do you have any manually configured packages? [00:57] Sometimes they can get in the way... [00:59] is it posible to run "make menuconfig" to edit one of the configs in debian/config/arch/ ? [00:59] how do you format a hard drive in kubuntu? [01:03] dave, do you want to format a different partition ? [01:03] Monkii, LOL...nope, I just started installing Kubnuntu yesterday.. [01:03] Monkii, it tells me the packages don't exist...which I would doubt... [01:04] so "re-sync" the package tree I shall do! [01:04] blueskaj, d drivee [01:04] hey room [01:05] dave, to what file system , ntfs or ext3 orr... ? [01:05] blueskaj,ntfs [01:06] hi [01:06] my kde doesnt start automatiacally [01:07] i have to start it manually everytime i logon [01:07] blueskaj, can i do it through dolphin? [01:07] dave, I don't format from kubuntu ...I use gparted bootable live cd for resizing and formatting partitions [01:07] blueskaj, i am not that advanced [01:08] Monkii, ...no success..my problem starts at acpid not wanting to start...could it be that I rebooted with the broken kernel (older one) ? [01:08] when i boot from the live cd it just says "no emulation" and then says isolinux 3.36 debian-2007-08-30 and then does nothing [01:08] what's up with that [01:10] blueskaj, you mean i have to burn a cd just to format a drive??? [01:10] dave: gparted [01:11] dave download and burn gparted live cd , it's very straightforward and quite easy to use ...I was a newb once and was able to use it ...the only problem is if you already have kubunti installed ,then installing windows will wipe out the bootloader grub menu and you won't be able to boot into kubuntu ...it's always better to install windows first , then kubuntu [01:11] is that linux software? [01:11] yes [01:11] when i boot from the live cd it just says "no emulation" and then says isolinux 3.36 debian-2007-08-30 and then does nothing [01:11] sudo apt-get install gparted [01:11] blueskaj, theres no windows involved [01:12] ntfs is windows [01:12] blueskaj its a kubuntu install computer [01:13] linux reads ntfs [01:13] then why ntfs ? [01:13] yes [01:13] safer format [01:13] than fat 32 [01:13] when i boot from the live cd it just says "no emulation" and then says isolinux 3.36 debian-2007-08-30 and then does nothing [01:14] ok ,so you're just going to store files there ? [01:14] yes [01:14] my kde doesnt start automatiacally i have to start it manually everytime i logon [01:15] any solution [01:15] ? [01:15] well dave, gparted is till a good idea ...it's nice to have around [01:16] il look into it later,thanks [01:17] i couldn't use the parted on kubuntu feisty live CD to resize an ext3 partition because it had "unsupported features". does anyone know if the one in gutsy fixes the problem? [01:20] hey all.. I just installed Gutsy, and for some reason all my menu items look like "_: Entries in K-menu:" and a long string, rather than the actual name of the app.. has this happened to anyone else? [01:21] hi [01:21] a weird thing is happened [01:21] guess im not going to get my question answered here. guess ill search elsewhere :( [01:22] all of a sudden my knetowrkmanager says: No active device === morphine is now known as morphinex [01:23] hey folks, where can I get a working pidgin 2.2.2 package for gutsy? [01:23] it's weird because it have been always working [01:23] (I'm using Kubuntu 7.10) [01:24] and it worked well also with 7.04 [01:25] ok guys im testing my lag someone help me out [01:25] 1.3 seconds [01:25] I hate compiz [01:25] y? [01:25] it's not as user friendly as beryl was [01:25] I mean [01:25] it's a great program so I don;t really hate it [01:25] how do you intall beryl? [01:26] Hoookay... dvd chick here again... no not using rewritables... i have the iso now, can't find wodim... tried sudo apt-get install wodim as well, that didn't find anything.... where is it located?

[01:31] hey is it compiz i should be installing what are the packages called? [01:31] anyone here do alot of work in open office? [01:31] what's the opposite of 'startx'?

[01:34] BluesKaj: but he said "thanks", so... :P [01:34] Monkii, yeah I did...maybe I should change my repo....maybe canadian repo is frozen :P [01:35] all of a sudden my knetowrkmanager says: No active device [01:35] it's weird because it have been always working [01:35] and it worked well also with 7.04 [01:35] could be... I noticed they seem to cut out more than the main server too.. :( [01:35] cosenal, he was asking how to get to to the TTY prompt , a while ago [01:36] cosenal: its still works, it says that because you are not using dhcp but a manual configuration [01:36] Monkii, O_o....huh...really? [01:36] Angelus: I didn't change anything! [01:36] cosenal, behind a router ? [01:37] cosenal: artificial inteligence, its a normal evulation nowadays in computers [01:37] LOL [01:37] BluesKaj: yes [01:37] cosenal: check if you are using dhcp or not, if not, change to dhcp [01:37] cosenal - Take a look at /etc/network/interfaces... If the interface (eg eth1) is in there, knetworkmanager won't use your device (strange, I know) This got me a couple of times [01:38] cosenal: you can do it by right clicking on th system tray icon and clicking manual configuration [01:38] it changed by itself? [01:38] could be [01:38] check just to make sure [01:38] reboot the router , but firdst check in system setting /network for eth0 or eth1 [01:38] check if its using dhcp or not, if not change to dhcp, you will have you're device there again [01:39] Angelus: the eth1 interface is configured to Automatic dhcp [01:39] BluesKaj: I'm not able to reboot the router [01:39] BluesKaj: I don't know where it is :) [01:40] ok [01:40] cosenal: http://your.default.gateway [01:40] BluesKaj how do you get your ident to not say you ip without tor? [01:40] if you're default gateway is 192.168.123.254 , then http://192.168.123.254, it will give you router settings === dac_ is now known as aaa_ [01:41] Angelus: I know, but I don't have passwd :) [01:42] ah [01:42] ok [01:42] Monkii, hmm...it tells me I am missing a dependancy for acpid to work properly: libc6 (>= 2.6-1) [01:42] but... I don't cotrol that...isn't apt_manager supposed to take care of all that^ [01:42] ?

[03:31] i asked richard, but he only responds to like 5% of my pings. which is still quite alot ;p [03:31] khaije1: my mem usage is upwards of 50%, causing my computer to run super slow and there is no reason for it. apps are only using a tiny fraction of my allocated mem/cpu space [03:32] i can move around my desktop by using the CL and keyboard shortcuts and irssi, but it's still a pain [03:33] posingaspopular: does top tell you [03:34] posingaspopular: what does top tell you?

[03:46] posingaspopular: so your whole system is slow? is it just gui apps or is the cmdline sluggish too? [03:48] i think it's just the gui. my initial impression was that the whole system was slow, but not that i test the konsole, it seems its just the gui stuff [03:48] posingaspopular: and this started after clicking on a konversation alert? [03:49] yea it was just a highlight, and when i clicked it, my computer went down hard\ [03:50] is the gui slow in the same way from the time you login to the time you sign out? does it fluctuate at all? [03:51] no it's pretty much slow on a steady basis [03:52] but im thinking it HAS to be a memory leak, because now my used physical memory is at 63% and its been steadily climing for the past 24 hours [03:52] it was at 49% when I first started poking around the systek [03:53] try installing a different window manager / desktop envirmonment (i'd reccommend fluxbox because it doesn't introduce a lot of dependiencies) and see is that is slow [03:53] and my disk cache usage has been steady climing as well [03:54] thats possible, but if it's a leak it should have a concrete source, and from what you've said it should be associate with something originating in the gui layer [03:54] posingaspopular: you can disregard the cache info that doesn't really count toward your memory total [03:55] hmm true [03:55] i think im going to try booting off a live cd and swapping out the mouse, see if that helps much [03:55] k [03:57] Hi [03:57] anyone can help me?

[04:54] best way to find out is to start using what's there (Kopete), and then test the other one (Pidgin). Although Kopete supports webcams and Pidgin doesn't [04:55] did they change the name of libxine-extracodecs? [04:55] smorg: libxine1-ffmpeg [04:55] if you want, you can just install kubuntu-restricted-extras [04:56] ah that includes mpg/wmv/mp3 etc [04:56] except wmv/wmva [04:56] wma* [04:56] and dvdcss [04:57] Is there a way to get a list of channels, so you can find out where you want to go on IRC? [04:57] cool thx [04:57] darn wife. Wont leave me alone.. Wanting me to find her some photo software that can put a 'picture' in the background (slightly faded), and then a 2nd picture in the foreground Like the Photo galleries do.d [04:57] Merritt: Window -> Channel List for ______ (be careful, you will lag a bi t) [04:58] Anyone seen such a tool? windows/linux/ as idiot proof as possible :) [04:58] hrmm [04:58] jucato: Thank you [04:58] like... an inset photo like a photo studio would do? [05:04] It's kind of quiet here. [05:04] kinda nice, actually [05:04] I know. [05:05] its a good sign [05:05] * Daisuke_Laptop listens to the crickets [05:05] hehe [05:05] that linux is getting recognized as the favorite OS of the world? [05:06] yep, that is a good sign, actually. [05:06] no, that the people using kubuntu arn't having any problems :D [05:06] true, or they are celebrating that the Red Sox won the Series. [05:08] the matchup I'm pumped to see happens sunday [05:08] which one? [05:08] colts vs. patriots [05:08] Don't say the Broncos... please don't say them. [05:08] Oh yea. go patriots. [05:09] You know, I think that Kubuntu should hold a desktop theme competition like gentoo did on their website. [05:09] is there a client for linux to connect to windows remote desktop? [05:09] gundam_rx78nt1: you should be glad i'm a forgiving person :) === L_Ron_Hubbard is now known as Daisuke_Ido [05:10] wow my wireless is slow. im about to FLIP [05:10] It would be nice to see what the imagination of the people that use Kubuntu can come up with. [05:10] colts or bust :) [05:10] L_Ron_Hubbard, why is that? === maverick_ is now known as m4v [05:10] because he'll sic his body thetans on you [05:11] sorry, forgot to switch nicks [05:11] colts :D [05:11] aaron_:you can use rdesktop, or if your just wanting to have windows access your linux shares, use samba [05:11] I want full blown [05:11] so rdesktop [05:11] thanks [05:11] np [05:11] will I find that in adept [05:12] rdesktop? it's compatible with windows' remote desktop support? [05:12] yewp [05:12] my experience is probably not typical, but i found it easier to install SFU on the windows side and connect to the existing NFS shares from windows... [05:13] will someone hack my box and make my wireless faster. im about to /myself [05:13] you can have root [05:13] what do i care [05:14] heh, might be careful who you trust with your box kudar [05:15] but.. 74.132.195.249 is that you? [05:15] iwconfig [05:15] miss [05:20] for some reason my kde autostart directory does not seem to work... i have two bash scripts in there and it will not run either one of them. I have also tried to use links but to no avail [05:20] chmod +x bashscript [05:21] anyone know when we will see rc1? [05:21] sub[t]rnl: they are already set as executable [05:21] hellhound: see? you get the same answer in 2 places :) [05:22] sub[t]rnl, what command to I start rdesktop... I am confused by the man page. [05:23] Jucato: yes but i did already check that [05:23] Jucato: in fact i can go to my autostart directory and double click them and they will start [05:23] hm... strange indeed... [05:24] gundam_rx78nt1: not sure, never used rdesktop [05:24] Jucato: is there a way to make sure that kde knows to check this directory? [05:24] sub[t]rnl: yes thanks for your help i was busy installing these updates [05:24] it's checked automatically [05:25] gundam_rx78nt1: http://www.venturecake.com/10-minutes-to-run-every-windows-app-seamlessly-on-your-ubuntu-desktop/ [05:25] :D [05:25] hellhound: in what directory exactly did you put them? [05:25] Jucato: that is what i thought... but i can't think of anything else [05:26] jucato: ~/.kde/Autostart/ [05:26] hm... weird... [05:26] * Jucato can't think of any reason why it wouldn't start [05:26] sub[t]rnl: how to make firefox the default browser for every command even in konversation for opening links? [05:26] don't use konv [05:26] Jucato: is there a log i check? [05:27] not sure [05:27] sure its in the configure konversation tab though [05:27] numan: konversation would use whatever default browser KDE is set to use. in System Settings -> Default Applications [05:27] why does Kubuntu 7.10 give me screwed up menu names like in this screenshot http://dominomf.com/smcfiles/index.php?mode=upload&rec=8952&secret=344472.29605405 [05:30] sub[t]rnl: how to open system settings?

[05:31] :P was trying to make it reeal simple [05:32] sub[t]rnl: you want to see my iwconfig? [05:32] I already answered his other question :) [05:32] i answered his question before he even asked it [05:32] now that would be cool [05:33] :P [05:33] sub[t]rnl: i cant find system settings in k menu [05:33] numan: are you kidding [05:34] numan: run systemsettings in a konsole [05:34] yes really [05:34] numan: you installed kubuntu?

[05:35] * sub[t]rnl titters [05:36] sub: what is the easiest way to see... [05:36] lspci shows the exact card that i have [05:36] hrmn [05:36] yeah, show me that [05:36] you might want to install ndiswrapper [05:37] sub: please no [05:37] bah [05:37] sub: i heard ndiswrapper turned kubuntu into windows [05:38] it just used window drivers that weren't available [05:38] in linux [05:38] well [05:38] gutzy has the drivers [05:38] thats the thing [05:39] sub[t]rnl: this time i also get this error log when launching system settings in konsole-->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42659/ [05:39] in nvidia-drivers [05:39] Is there a repository for wine-doors? the .deb on the site isn't quite right .... [05:39] the-erm: should be in the repo's already [05:39] I guess I should mention I'm running gusty [05:39] sudo apt-get install wine [05:39] no wine doors. [05:39] sub: here is lspci [05:39] 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Network Connection (rev 61) [05:39] and I did an apt-get install wine-doors :) [05:40] say i'm using grep to grab all the lines matching a url pattern in a set of files. that's not all the data on those lines though. how would i strip all data from the line except the url? [05:40] wine-doors? [05:40] It's a helper application for wine. Helps you install all the stuff. Kinda like apt for wine. [05:41] never heard of it, no idea :) [05:41] I guess should check in their channel. [05:41] Wow that's a full place. [05:42] so does anyone know when kde4 rc1 is coming out like if it is today? [05:43] No clue. [05:44] ahh well im kindof excited considering the betas are not very functional [05:44] adpet just asked me to upgrade to gutsy from gutsy, will this create a rip in the space time continum? [05:44] the-erm: here http://www.wine-doors.org/releases/wine-doors_0.1.1-1_all.deb [05:44] the-erm: download that and install it :) [05:45] supert0nes: most probably not. it was just tagged recently, so it will take a few more days/weeks before a release is announced [05:45] 1 week or so [05:45] ahh alright [05:46] the tarballs were released today [05:46] and i didnt know what kindof turnaround that gets [05:47] mornin Jucato [05:47] moin Daisuke_Ido [05:48] you good with pipe manipulation?

[05:50] look in /etc/X11/ for a possible backup of the xorg.conf that was edited [05:50] or run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to generate a new one [05:50] Daisuke_Ido: I suck at bash :) [05:50] :( [05:51] Angelus: that one doesn't like gusty. [05:51] why? [05:51] i just need to extract a string with a set beginning and end from a longer string [05:51] sub[t]rnl: did you saw that? [05:51] i'm thinking sed? [05:58] I did the latter and still no joy [05:58] how do I delete all xorg and reinstall it? [06:00] Jucato: ok i just tried to add kcalc to the AUtostart as a test. I tried a link, bashscript and also even tried to copy the program there and for some reason it did not start. [06:00] Jucato: [06:01] hellhound: ok extremely weird...

[06:02] how did you disable it? [06:03] Jucato: i removed it from a directory and put it in my home folder... but i cannot remember what folder it was originally in [06:03] 好难看的kde [06:04] 还不如gnome好看呢 [06:04] hellhound: /usr/bin ? [06:04] zhaowolong: can we get same in english? [06:04] so it was in some kde folder [06:04] Jucato: no it was in some kde folder [06:04] hellhound: I'm not sure, because I don't know what file you removed [06:06] !cn | zhaowolong [06:06] zhaowolong: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk === emilsedgh_ is now known as emilsedgh [06:12] how do i make it so a program starts everytime the computer does? like say, firefox? [06:12] !autostart [06:12] To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. The package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory. [06:12] GS3User007_: leave it open when you logout, it will restart when you log back in [06:19] anybody from Puerto Rico here? [06:20] I was wondering how many users in PR uses kubuntu?

[06:32] O_o [06:32] so i can't have nvidia-settings on kubuntu? [06:32] looks like it uses nvidia-glx-legacy, and conflicts with nvidia-glx-new, nvidia-glx [06:33] that sucks :S [06:34] um... [06:34] nvidia-settings = config for nvidia cards ? tv etc ? [06:34] nvidia-glx and -new come with their own version of nvidia-settings [06:34] nice [06:34] well, there you have it [06:34] that's why it conflicts with the older version of nvidia-settings that is packaged [06:35] why are hd tuner cards not well supported at all? [06:35] +1 jucato [06:35] yes have try, but on cann't fix [06:35] Hi, why startx my X-windows need to use sudo startx only? [06:36] Jucato: i have nvidia-glx-new but i don't have nvidia-settings [06:36] Angelus: have you tried typing in Konsole "nvidia-settings"? [06:36] y are u using repository drivers..they may not be the most recent ? [06:36] hmm yes Jucato i have it in Konsole, but not in the k menu [06:36] goto nvidia [06:36] Angelus: no problem then. it just doesn't have a menu entry [06:37] b1n42y, are you talk to me?

[06:38] ya i would understand that if you wer using ubuntu ..coz u cant shut down x bug i think but kubuntu is easy [06:38] just did it myself [06:38] am newb aswell [06:39] can't shut down huh? [06:39] nope [06:39] heh [06:39] init 3 etc doesnt work [06:39] init 3 isn't shutdown though [06:39] :P [06:39] i'm fairly sure that if you shutdown -h now [06:39] so i went kubuntu coz therz an option to start in console and since i just swicthed to linux i dont minde kde envir. [06:39] ubuntu will shutdown [06:39] and Ubuntu uses a different init system. I'm not sure how it affects the init commands [06:40] mmm i had problems shutting it and read thru alot of cr*p [06:41] on how to do it...but i never came here so you're prob right [06:41] so shutdown -h in terminal or one of the ttys ?

[07:00] i thought i knew how to but kubuntu has it set up differently or something [07:00] sudo apt-get install kdmtheme [07:00] then look in kcontrol [07:01] ah that would have helped. thanks [07:01] why wasn't it installed by default? [07:01] guess they didn't feel it important enough to include [07:01] 700 mb cds i assume [07:01] it's only 50kb o_O [07:01] adds up [07:01] ;p [07:01] and its only one command line away [07:01] lol alright. that helped, so thanks [07:03] https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuExtras [07:03] thats y i said wot i said [07:03] Lam_: kdmtheme isn't located in the main repository. it's in universe. we can only include packages from main in the CD [07:03] ah ok. that's a much more valid reason. thanks [07:20] what log is the messages stored in that's displayed during startup? [07:20] my system hang on at "Running local boot script (/etc/rc.local) [Ok]" [07:21] what can I do?

[07:26] Jucato: none of those. i grepped the /var/log/ dir but none of the boot messages shows up. maybe it's disabled. [07:27] hm.. I think it's disabled if "quiet" is enabled in the grub entry for that kernel [07:28] hmm.. funny, coz then messages from recovery mode should be logged and they're not. [07:29] hm... not really sure [07:31] anyone played with pulseaudio? Im trying to workout how to connect to a pulseaudio server and 'listen' to theoutput [07:37] omg. Portal is running better on my fesity/wine install than on my winXP install! [07:38] must... resist... urge to play more [07:40] could I, in any way, to connect a laptop on a desktop that has connection on the internet and the laptop has connection to the internet through this desktop? [07:41] I can't run any windows programs through Wine. Tried Internet Explorer 6 and something else, but it said I didn't have a DOS dir or something. [07:41] kaminix: Maybe IE is not the best choice to try Wine? [07:42] krekon: yes [07:42] krekon: Yes, should be possible, think it's called a gateway. Don't know how do do it though. ^^ [07:42] ScorpKing you know how? [07:42] ackbahr: I tried some other smaller program too, don't remember which, and I think it said the same thinc. [07:43] kaminix: Smaller in the sense of "more stand-alone"? [07:43] krekon: you have to set the gateway to the ip of the box with the internet. [07:44] ackbahr: Yeah, I think so. Besides, both tho IE and other program were installers. :s [07:44] you mean that I have to change the laptop IP to that of the desktop on the internet? [07:44] kaminix: Yep, I never had any luck with "installed" programs.... [07:44] krekon: no. [07:45] ackbahr: But these were installers, meaning it should've atleast shown me the setup window, no? [07:45] dhcp holds ip adress though [07:45] ok. one sec.. [07:45] kaminix: Ah well yes, if the *program* doesn't start up, at least its *installer* should!

[10:34] wish to replace dolphin with konqueror? follow the instructions at http://sathyasays.com/?p=23 but the opposite (as the article is how to replace konqueror with dolphin) | greencookie you can follow these instructions but use nautilus in place of references to dolphin (as default) or konqueror (as default) [10:35] !dolphin [10:35] dolphin is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror → Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin.

[10:38] kaminix: but have you enabled KGet-Konqueror integration? [10:38] Yeah, I suppose so. KGet is default dload managet. [10:38] *manager [10:38] I'm downloading via Krusader though, but it's in the Konq menu. [10:39] ah... kget integration only works with konqueror. not sure if it does with krusader [10:42] Jucato: But it's on the Konqueror menu.

[10:59] WaltzingAlong, I understood everything except making copy of my log. Which log are you talking about?

[11:40] uhm and also "/bin/bash /etc/acpi/sleep.sh force" gets executed [11:42] however it seems that /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-suspend-linux executes the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh [11:42] icewaterman: maybe ask in #kubuntu-devel ? or #kde [11:42] !dual head [11:42] Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama [11:42] !xinerama [11:42] xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display.

I know I can find loads of them by randomly searching with apt, but any recommentadions? [11:44] english-english ? did you have a few beers ? heh [11:45] you want to translate English to English ? [11:45] pbn: Such as Oxford advanced learners thinge or an encyclopedia like thingie. [11:45] kaminix: pbn well there are uni-language dictionaries, more like an encyclopedia [11:45] oh yes, now I get it [11:46] yeah I know Oxford's, I've got it [11:46] kaminix: due to the size i suspect you do not want to download but rather look the stuff up online (en.wikipedia.org) [11:46] Swedish-English would be nice too, but somehow I doubt I'll find one :p [11:47] icewaterman: Nah, looking it up offline is nice too. Besides, Wikipedia goes pretty much into detail. [11:47] I installed compiz-fusion and then uninstalled it. However I've now lost alt+tab How do I get it back? [11:47] kaminix: didnt kbabel translate such stuff? [11:47] icewaterman: What is Kbabel? [11:48] kaminix: kbabel is some translator program [11:49] !info kdict [11:49] kdict: dictionary client for KDE. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 297 kB, installed size 876 kB [11:49] WaltzingAlong: right, kdict is better [11:49] icewaterman: Says "PO-file editing suite for KDE" in apt for babel. [11:49] Thanks WaltzingAlong, I'll look :) [11:49] hi folks, i've got a dlink dwl-g122 rev c1 usb wifi stick. kubuntu detects it out of the box with the rt73 module. but i can't seem to connect to any APs. any ideas? [11:51] Hi. There's an app (KpoGre) which I'd want but it's not in the repos nor I can't find any packages of it. There are SuSE packages of it, should I try to use those or build from source? [11:53] !alien | Kred [11:53] Kred: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) [11:53] suse uses rpm iirc [11:53] Yes. I asked because of alien but.. :I [11:54] Kred: build from source [11:54] i would try alien then source myself [11:54] ok [11:55] Thanks for the answers :) [11:55] Kred: i would build from source and use checkinstall to build a package [11:55] np [11:56] if compile/install is no problem as in its provided then do that [11:56] see how you go on the deps etc. [11:57] so no one knows how to re-enable alt+tab switching? [11:57] crazy_bus, try #kde [11:57] check your shortcuts etc. in kcontrol [11:57] its all in there [11:58] Hmmm, can you use displayconfig-gtk on kubuntu? [11:58] !info displayconfig-gtk [11:58] displayconfig-gtk: Simple tool to change xserver settings. In component main, is optional. Version 0.3.7 (gutsy), package size 48 kB, installed size 604 kB [11:58] ... [11:58] yes you can jussi01 [11:58] thanks flaccid :) [11:58] np [11:58] most gtk apps will work [11:59] thanks flaccid [11:59] yeah, was just checking that it wasnt playing with gnome only settings [11:59] it should be abstracted totally. gnome is a de not a tk [12:00] oh, yeah, what was the command to refresh kicker? [12:00] killall kicker && kicker [12:00] um [12:00] killall kicker; kicker [12:00] hmmm, thought there was some dcop thing [12:00] if not [12:00] ah ok, probably sorry there probably is [12:06] dcop kicker kicker restart [12:07] my laptop is melting.. it's really warm but it didnt get this warm while using windows [12:07] try ##windows [12:09] sigh [12:10] jussi01: dcop kicker kicker restart [12:10] timri: thanks. all sorted with that now. its this dual head setup thats the issue [12:14] the session manager doesnt like the network-manager it seems. all saved konqueror windows fail because the network has not come up yet. Anyone know a way around ? a ifup hook or something? [12:15] hello mates [12:15] hello dates [12:15] i gtg [12:15] is there anything you can do to cool down the PC? [12:15] jari: use the power saving settings? switch to powersave or dynamic modes [12:16] jari: use top to see if a process is eating up all your cpu (strigi does that sometimes) [12:16] i have not seen strigi since sudo aptitude purge strigi... [12:17] WaltzingAlong: been there and done that too... hehe poor jos [12:17] thanks, strigi is not running [12:17] WaltzingAlong: where can I find the power saving settings? [12:18] jari: guidance-power-manager [12:19] WaltzingAlong: sorry I dont know where is guidance? Im looking from system settings === cash_ is now known as cash__ [12:19] jari: alt+f2 then guidance-power-manager or it may already be running next to the clock as 'power manager' [12:20] jari: alt-f2, or use a konsole [12:20] Hey I'm seeing ksysguard eating my CPU.. [12:21] Kred: that's fairly normal, use top, it is a quite a bit lighter [12:21] Oh ok :) [12:21] WaltzingAlong: it could not be started because an instance was already running [12:22] Btw, I don't see trackerd installed. Is it only for Ubuntu? [12:22] Is this KDE or something else? I only have it on my gutsy box: http://amiga.nvg.org/moro/volum.png [12:22] jari: ok then there is likely the icon for it already in the systray next to the clock [12:22] kde! [12:22] kolla: it's a known bug with KMilo [12:22] when I press XF86AudioRaiseVolume/XF86AudioLowerVolume that's the one that shows up [12:22] Kred: for ubuntu/gnome [12:22] WaltzingAlong: you didnt forget to remove the strigi cache did you? aptitude purge doesnt remove it [12:23] WaltzingAlong: ah yes thank you [12:23] Jucato: aha.. it just swaps between 0% and 11%, is that normal? :) [12:23] WaltzingAlong: good :) I don't want such thing in my laptop :) [12:23] Thanks! [12:23] kolla: it's not normal. it's a bug. and it has been reported already [12:23] rm -r ~/.strigi ? and the like, sure did [12:23] Jucato: ok [12:23] strigi and dolphin are getting too much bad publicity because of this :( [12:23] (the *real* dolphin) [12:24] Jucato: On my system dolphin went the way of the dodo. [12:24] grrrr... [12:24] timri: it flew? :D [12:24] Jucato: It sank like a stone [12:25] poor dodos... they can neither fly, nor swim it seems :D [12:25] Jucato: so "normal" would be to get the usual big volume gauge? :) [12:26] kolla: no. the normal would be that it can go beyond 11% :D [12:26] anyone know of a way to get the session manager to wait restoring until after the network has come up? [12:26] kolla: it's normal that it looks like that. it's a new theme for kmilo [12:26] Jucato: This one goes to eleven! [12:28] Jucato: ah, ok [12:29] Jucato: but..uhm.. is it also normal that it doesnt actually make any difference to the sound level? [12:29] that I don't know :) [12:29] normal.. as in, part of this bug :) [12:32] hey [12:32] someone broke the topic! [12:33] ?

[12:56] jussi01: i'm trying it, thanks [12:56] eindbaas: cool. [12:57] willo: could have been a mix of repos or packages but adept or apt-get and the like should not have forced installing/upgrading to a broken state [12:57] willo: so something forced it [12:57] willo: and now that envy can work, skip it ;) [12:57] WaltzingAlong: Ok, perhaps thats why the nVidia drivers freaked?

[14:28] WaltzingAlong: i have them all and in soundkonverter no wma decoder just an encoder [14:28] i need the decoder so i can get rid of the wma format and convert to flac [14:29] i dont know [14:29] Jucato: Do i have to do the default window manager step of im using emerald? [14:29] eagles0513875: so could you use something else to get to wav, mplayer or the like [14:29] d347hm4n: don't know [14:29] WaltzingAlong: i cant get out of wma to any format [14:29] Jucato: np, thanks anyway [14:29] cuz i dont have a decoder [14:29] eagles0513875: vlc file.wma plays nothing? [14:29] eagles0513875: or mplayer ? [14:30] are there any other window managers i can use, just to try things out?

[14:33] nope [14:33] they shouldnt be unless they became drm after converting to wma [14:33] which woudl really piss me off [14:33] for wmato kubuntu d"fault also soundkonvert ? [14:34] Jucato: i will change it to gdm, then if kde stops working i will change the default [14:34] wma* [14:34] d347hm4n: you don't need to. KDM can start GNOME sessions, and GDM can start KDE sessions [14:35] Jucato: ok, so no harm done i guess [14:35] WaltzingAlong: what do i do [14:36] eagles0513875: apparently only up to wma 9.0 (not 9.1 which is used by wmp 10) can be decoded with those codecs [14:37] ? [14:37] eagles0513875: or perhaps you start a vmware windows machine to convert them [14:37] wat is the sound of kubuntu .ogg ?

[14:47] b1n42y compiz can be a real pain. But if you want the fancy uber eye candy its what does it. [14:47] You can easially run kde with or without compiz [14:47] apps wise u mean [14:47] "no candidate versions were found for firefox" [14:47] uninstalling not a problem if i find its a pain ?

[15:11] in that case its a difference in keys likely. remove the key from known_hosts [15:11] (I ended up having to bounce from the first computer key it loaded, from the others... but that prohibits an sftp connection, which is the main thing I'm trying to do [15:11] lg188, ##windows [15:11] well, the key for one port is correct [15:11] worst case, delete known_hosts [15:11] but it looks like it's trying to load that same key for a different port, even though that is gonna be a completely different computer [15:11] how did you verify it is correct tei?

[15:13] yeah, so, computer a, b, c.... computer a is where I'm at [15:14] b is the one it says is being man in the middled [15:14] if computer a has the host and its going to b and its wrong then yeah... [15:14] c I already have the correct ssh cert for [15:14] I ssh to c [15:14] then from c, ssh to b [15:14] quick solution is to delete the entry [15:14] a cert is not a key [15:14] sorry, I meant key, too much multitasking [15:15] if it were correct, this wouldn't occurr..

[15:22] because they have no metadata [15:22] with amarok ? [15:22] because they are stupid [15:22] flaccid: ya an athlon 64 3200+ 2ghz [15:23] You need to use the files browser [15:23] bazhang: ummm - I can't find peripheral in the kmenu...? [15:23] to be honest, i'm not sure eagles0513875. problem could be 64bit issue. its worked fine similar for me in the past on 32bit [15:23] flaccid: i didnt have this problem in feisty 64bit [15:24] If i try to open a shn files with dolphin, I have no action [15:24] is this gutsy [15:24] gutsy is shit...

[17:02] this started when I updated from 704 to 710 on kubuntu [17:02] dmesg doesn't say anything about it.. [17:03] !nfs [17:03] nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. [17:03] Okay, Amarok doesn't like my DAP, for some reason. I have an iAudio F2, which supports Ogg Vorbis. However, Amarok won't beleive me when I tell it so, and still refuses to sync Ogg tracks to it. [17:03] it worked beofre upgrading [17:04] Kr4t05: yea, lots of people have had that problem recently.. we got a bug report about it but no one has figured out why its doing it yet [17:05] so fix it [17:05] who was that to? [17:05] Would it have something to do with the fact that, in the format list in my player's preference's dialog, ogg is preceded by an ampersand (&) [17:05] oh, there it goes.. aparently updating to 710 removes nfs common [17:05] thanks that was easy [17:05] Kr4t05: yes [17:05] it would [17:05] cheers! [17:05] we arn't sure why its getting there though, so it hasn't yet been fixed [17:06] Alright. [17:06] I guess I'll just have to go with the MP3 feed of LAS. [17:11] Netsplit! [17:12] Kr4t05: no there not [17:13] * genii sips a coffee and looks for his Nicorettes [17:16] genii hi boss [17:16] * genii hands ksivaji a large coffee [17:17] genii now its time to sleep [17:17] you wnat me to have coffee ?

[17:45] * ksivaji kate is best [17:45] lovre, Kdevelop is a not-bad IDE. underneath the compiling is normally done by the gcc and so on installed by package build-essential [17:45] ksivaji: but it doesnt debug...

[17:47] lovre: no, Eclipse [17:47] genii: i see. So in kdevelop i can develop C, C++ and Python applications? That is what i need [17:48] yes [17:48] Yes [17:48] genii: yes [17:48] * genii hands Tm_T a coffee [17:48] genii: does it have its own compilers or do i install them separatelly? [17:48] lovre: gcc is your friend [17:48] and friends [17:49] Tm_T: gcc is a compiler for C and C++? [17:49] lovre, As i stated earlier, the compiler installed by package build-essential (normally gcc) [17:49] etc [17:49] lovre: there's full family of GNU compilers [17:49] You can specifically install g++ [17:50] so i install gcc and Kdevelop and im all ready to write code? [17:50] lovre: gcc and a text editor you are ready [17:50] lovre: were you expecting visual studio? [17:51] not really [17:51] for developing kde apps thers some kde -dev pakcages you will proberly want also. [17:51] WaltzingAlong: And how do i use gcc to compile my code? [17:51] man gcc [17:51] lovre: may be worth learning about some of the autobuild tools [17:51] lovre, Basically yes, Kdevelop and gcc (which is in build-essential along with some other useful build tools) [17:52] could be as simple as gcc source.c [17:54] WaltzingAlong: i never used linux to develop anything, i just installed it for the first time a few weeks ago. So excuse my noobness... when i compile my C++ code, what is the output i get? Binary executable (no extension?), could you explain a bit. And also, can i develop applications for windows? I know i can with Python [17:55] linux dosent need extensions [17:55] lovre: then you could have a simple c++ file say hello.cpp, g++ hello.cpp and the output would default to a.out with the exec bit set. so to run that ./a.out but of course you can rename it to anything you like [17:55] Python is a good tool for cross platform tools.

[18:03] ubunturos: they'll all get there in the end (hopefully) [18:03] jpatrick: :) [18:03] lovre: start with C++ and python :) (you'll have a book in Help -> Scrollkeeper) for python :) [18:04] The "development tools" part has much on kdevelop which applies to whatever you are programming with it [18:04] ksivaji: r u there? [18:04] * jpatrick still can't decide between Python and Ruby [18:04] Vanniarajan ya [18:05] ksivaji: every day ur work is this? [18:05] Hi there, I just installed aircrack, and I need to patch my bcm43xx driver.. Im doing that right now with helpl from a website (http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=2045.0) but it requires a modules recompile, and then a sudo make modules_install.. [18:05] Vanniarajan in this means [18:05] is this not going to overwrite the kernel modules that already exist? [18:05] jpatrick: watch Youtube Commercials ;) [18:05] as in, is this not going to cause problems like a dead machine? [18:05] ubunturos: eh? [18:05] Vanniarajan ya i will be available in this channel [18:05] pardon* [18:06] jpatrick: just kidding. There's a lot of videos floating on YouTube supporting Ruby over PHP, Python etc. [18:06] ksivaji: ok catch u later, leaving! [18:06] ubunturos: my problems is that there are things in each language that I like but the other doesn't have it [18:06] Vanniarajan: bye :) ;) [18:07] jpatrick: umm [18:07] and I want to stick with one of them [18:07] hi how do I configure the external monitor I attached to my laptop? now it merely clones the primary display [18:07] I heard in 7.10 there was a tool to configure everything "on the fly" [18:08] ubunturos: thank you. I allready programming in Python, but on Windows. And i used to programm in C++ and C, also in windows. So i hope ill get familiar with programming under linux fairly quick [18:09] something weird happened when I turned on my computer... all the fonts sizes changed to something so small I could barely read the text [18:09] lovre: it's not that difficult, you just need to learn what goes on under-the-hood [18:10] is there something I can do to change all the fonts back to the original size [18:10] I'm using 7.10 === Minnozz is now known as henk2 [18:15] Gar... [18:15] Now conky hates me. :'( [18:16] lovre: yes, if you weren't too specific on tools that you used in Windows [18:17] ubunturos: i get an warning msgbox when starting kdevelop, just a sec, ill paste a link in a sec [18:17] lovre: I haven't tried KDevelop and I'm not much used to IDEs on Kubuntu [18:17] lovre: you might have to direct your question to #kubuntu-devel [18:18] ubunturos: ok, thanx [18:18] * ubunturos has to leave and reboot his machine [18:18] Everytime I click on the desktop, conky disappears. === henk2 is now known as Minnozz [18:19] is there anyway find recently deleted file [18:20] i just deleted a file when i was trying to clear download list in opera [18:23] whats up with my kubuntu 710 install , cpu is at constnantly working at 98 % !? [18:23] I assume that the trash bin is too obvious a place to look, ksivaji! Other than that - no idea. Perhaps try strigi desktop search? [18:25] My question: how do I set the screen resolution for KDE desktop. It appears to be correct (or at least acceptable) in BIOS, grub, and x server, but as soon as I am logged in, my widescreen disappears. Everything in System Settings > Monitor & Display seems right, but the actual resolution I'm getting isn't. Any ideas, anyone? [18:26] i have a permission problem with my scanner. root has access to it but the user does not. there is a udev rule that should put the scanner into group "scanner" and my user is part of that group but still cannot access the scanner [18:27] eudemus its not there in trash [18:28] !flash [18:28] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [18:29] Sorry, then, ksivaji - afsos hai I've no better idea (did you try desktop search?) [18:30] kreib: What's making it do that? === cleni is now known as carlao [18:34] thats what I want to know! [18:34] the gkrellm monitor says cpu is at 98% constantly [18:35] kreib: press Ctrl+Esc or run top and tell me what process is doing that [18:37] I'm using the 7.04 install cd as a live cd, is there any way to force konqueror to invoke the "get flash player" wizard? [18:37] Hi. [18:37] Does anyone know where konsole keeps its settings? Every time I log in again it goes back to the defaults, even though I have saved the settings. [18:37] Xorg eats the most with a maximum 55 %, then kicker [18:38] so its somwthing wrong with the process Xorg ? [18:38] i have problems with more than a few applications. When i restart the application or computer, on the application startup, instead of loading its icon in the tray, the application loads its icon in a very small window in the upper left corner of my screen. I cant get it to tray in any way. It happens with konversation as i speak:........ any help with this? [18:41] FOAD: I'm finding for konsole: ~/.kde/share/config/konsolerc and ~/.kde/share/apps/konsole/ (which is empty here) [18:41] Sanne: ok.. lame question, but which permissions should konsolerc have? [18:41] FOAD: looking... [18:41] what is the difference between running kdevelop from all these options in kmenu (there is kdevelop for c, for ruby etc, but when i opet, its allways the same) [18:42] FOAD: ls -l konsolerc gives me: -rw------- 1 sanne sanne 870 2007-08-12 22:34 konsolerc [18:43] Ok.. [18:43] that's not it then.. [18:44] Anyone else here that gets graphical artifacts when using the latest fglrx-driver? [18:44] FOAD: how do you save your configuration? I just did a "Settings->Save as Default" after customizing, and it works. [18:44] kreib: No Xorg normally takes up like 20-40% of my CPU [18:44] Kicker? [18:44] Kicker isn't supposed to do that [18:44] Sanne: That's what I did. [18:44] lovre: All systray applications ? [18:45] The troubles started after I moved /home to its own partition. [18:45] Xorg is at 52, kicker is at 25 % [18:45] kreib: now you added anything to kicker? [18:46] It's not supposed to take that much. that would likely be the problem [18:46] how will I know? [18:46] Did you add anything to it? [18:46] Applets? new systray ? [18:46] DaSkreech: not all, well, all but not at the same time. Sometimes its Penguin, somethimes its Clipper, sometimes Konversation, sometimes Ktorrent..... yout get my point [18:46] FOAD: weird. What I did was basically set another font and turn off menubar and tabbar, and those customizations stuck. What did you change? I can try also and see if it works here (I'm on Dapper btw, not Gutsy) [18:47] lovre: but you do have a systray though ? [18:47] DaSkreech: yes, and there are applications sitting in it [18:47] No, dont think I have added anything [18:47] Just changed the scheme to black on white, but as I said it worked fine until I did the /home migration [18:47] lovre: Well that kills my main theory :) [18:47] DaSkreech: :D [18:48] kreib: try killing kicker and restarting it [18:48] see if it grabs the same amount of CPU time [18:48] FOAD: oh, yes, I also have that scheme set (forgot). If the problem is the /home migration, other programs should also have problems with their configs. Can you test that? [18:49] Anybody got any suggestions about my screen resolution problems. Normally getting xorg.conf right solves things, but the problem here is that it's right prior to login and then the resolution used *after* login is incorrect. [18:49] "Device 'dock.0' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed [18:49] does someone know how to fix that? ^^ [18:49] i can see all the documentation in kdevelop by contents, but i cant open most of them. Do i need to install something or is it just another bug? [18:49] Sanne: yes well I also have problems with kicker. [18:50] yes, grabs the same after restart + plus bottom panel didnt restore properly [18:50] I set the number of desktops to 1, but it keeps going back to 2 after logging in again [18:50] FOAD, when you migrated the /home did you make sure to preserve permissions? [18:51] I just re-logged in, and again konsole is white on black, although /home/dok/.kde/share/config/konsolerc has BlackonWhite [18:51] process kwin and kdesktop and gkrellm grabs about 20 % each, somethings not right... [18:51] genii: I probably screwed up in that [18:51] genii :D [18:52] peeps [18:52] I followed http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome LITERALLY [18:52] hiya poison--! not much. ;) [18:52] havin issues with virtualbox and USB atm [18:52] But after rebooting some of my dirs, like the .whatever ones, were empty [18:52] damn [18:52] so I did a regular cp after that... :/ [18:52] think i got it tho [18:52] * genii hands poison a coffee [18:52] genii for me [18:53] * ScorpKing kicks genii.. [18:53] * genii hands everyone a coffee! [18:53] * ksivaji sets a ban on ScorpKing [18:53] :0 [18:53] lol [18:53] ty genii. :-D [18:54] FOAD, Anyhow, you would want to do something like: cp -pR /dirname /destination to recursively copy with permissions intact [18:54] :/ [18:55] But the permissions of every dir and down to konsolerc are rw(x) for user? [18:55] * DaSkreech hands genii a McDonalds cup of coffee [18:55] how do i know where perl is installed? [18:55] FOAD since your curent username seems to be dok then you might want to: sudo chown dok:dok /home/dok [18:55] The_Machine: which perl [18:56] KalEl, it isn't specific.. it just asks me where perl is installed :) [18:56] http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=905 [18:56] i cant get kdevelop to build a hello world application, i get this error: "font-family:Monospace">< [18:56] genii: -R as well :P [18:56] The_Machine: no no i meant type "which perl" in konsole :) [18:56] bastard [18:56] haha [18:56] sorry, this error: C compiler cannot create executables [18:57] !build-essensial [18:57] genii: I did that, but that's how the perms already were [18:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about build-essensial - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [18:57] I.e. nothing changed. [18:57] someone? [18:57] ^^ [18:57] !be [18:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about be - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [18:57] FOAD, with -R will be recursive also (I omitted by mistake) [18:57] hmm [18:57] install "build-essential" :) [18:57] :) [18:58] ty stdin :D [18:58] lovre: install "build-essential" :) [18:58] ScorpKing: it is allready installed [18:58] after i switched to kubuntu i've never seen the prompt for upgrading packages... i'm now beginning to wonder if the system is working correctly [18:58] I'll try that. [18:59] <_buz> KalEl: try starting adept_notifier [18:59] FOAD, what you can do to rebuild the .kde dir etc etc is to logoff to kdm, then go to terminal by ctrl-alt-f1 and sudo rm -R /home/dok/.kde then back to kdm with alt-f7 and login where it should rebuild and recreate whatever was in there [19:00] _buz: nothing seems to happen [19:00] <_buz> i would rename rather than remove .kde [19:00] !build-essential is compiling [19:00] Let's try. [19:01] FOAD, as _buz suggests you can do instead sudo mv /home/dok/.kde /home/dok/.oldkde or similar [19:01] lovre: i think you need gcc or g++ or something like that. still looking.. [19:02] build-essential installs both [19:02] Konqueror won't load any webpages unless I disable the cache. What is up with that? [19:02] raindog: using some kind of dailup? [19:03] ScorpKing: Yes, dialup. :( [19:03] genii: you nailed it, excellent. Thank you. [19:04] raindog: you need an active network connection like eth0 for dns to work in konq and some other kde apps like Akregator. [19:05] ScorpKing: Really? Is this a new thing? My previous installation worked fine without disabling the cache. [19:05] raindog: setup eth0:1 in /etc/network/interfaces and it should be ok [19:05] Another question... in Feisty, upon going into X, my external drives would be present. This is no longer so in my (fresh) Gutsy install. I have to do something like plug in a drive to have them all show up at once. Can I change this? [19:05] ScorpKing: i installed gcc [19:05] ScorpKing: Thanks for the help. [19:06] can i see a graphical dependency chart for my installed packages? [19:06] raindog: there is /etc/ppp/* where all the files are kept for dailup. seems like konq doesn't use that. i'm still trying to figure out what is going on. [19:07] ScorpKing: Thanks. You've been quite helpful. [19:07] FOAD, glad to help [19:07] raindog: adding replacedefaultroute to /etc/ppp/options seems to help as well. [19:07] raindog: you're welcome [19:08] FOAD, the uuid for the drives has likely changed during the installations [19:08] lovre: is it working now? [19:11] what i need to install tcl via apt-get? the name of the file i mean [19:11] ScorpKing: no. Im giving up for today, im too tired, worked whole day------ goto sleep [19:11] FOAD, what you can do is output the curent uuid's as the system now sees them (when all drives are plugged in etc) by: sudo blkid then compare the output to what is in the /etc/fstab and make changes accordingly if neccesary. Also may be the uuid in there are correct but that the option auto may now be noauto instead [19:11] ScorpKing: thank you for your trouble [19:11] hi [19:11] lovre: np. come back tomorrow. ;) [19:11] ScorpKing: :D [19:11] can someone tell me how i install steam on a kubuntu wine desctop [19:11] E: Package tcl has no installation candidate [19:12] i know how but where do i install [19:12] Sorry for lag, getting yanked away every 30 secs or so for work here [19:12] * FOAD looks. [19:12] They're not in fstab at all but I don't recall them being in there before either. [19:12] aztyx: Try in #winehq [19:13] Still your idea seems logical, I'll try it. [19:13] Hi DShepherd [19:13] Thanks once again genii. :) [19:13] hey DaSkreech [19:13] idiotic: sudo aptitude search tcl [19:13] When I try to choose best server in "Manage Repositories" in adept, the dialog box just closes and nothing happens === luis__ is now known as caber [19:13] genii: 30 secs of work. sweet :) [19:13] ScorpKing thanx i never new of aptitude [19:13] FOAD, it is preferable to have disks mounted by uuid and not by devname eg: /dev/sdX or so because when you have multiple drives, the first plugged in becomes for instance /dev/sda1 but the uuid will remain constant [19:14] idiotic: it's usefull. :) [19:14] DaSkreech, Well mainly it is shuttling them up in the elevator LOL [19:14] Okay. [19:14] ScorpKing its exactly what i wanted :) [19:14] lol @ genii. [19:15] idiotic: np [19:15] can someone tell me where i do install steam with wine? the automaticly directory is c:\Program Files\Steam but that can be right with kubuntu or? [19:15] An UUID belongs to a drive, not a partition, right? [19:15] FOAD, so if in /etc/fstab there is an entry like /dev/sda1 /mountpoint fstype etc etc the /dev part becomes replaced by: UUID="uuidstuffhere" [19:15] FOAD, uuid can be entire drive or a subpartition also [19:15] aztyx: look it /home/you/.wine/ [19:15] except don't type "uuidstuffhere" [19:16] SudoKing, LOL === francuz38 is now known as francuz_38 [19:16] i wonder what that would do anyway.... [19:16] FOAD, where i put uuidstuff of course you want to replace with real UUID for that device as shown by sudo blkid [19:16] Okay, because fstab has an UUID for /, but /home is only identified by /dev/sda3 [19:16] hi SudoKing [19:16] Understood. [19:17] plz can someone help me? sry if i sound like a n00b but its my first time linux [19:17] hi Scorpy Snorpy === Gnagnagna is now known as gunirus === gunirus is now known as Gunirus [19:17] FOAD At any rate, you get the idea [19:18] Yes, thank you again for your great help. :) [19:18] aztyx: what is your problem?

[20:30] Black_Monkey: probably a dbus command [20:30] alibobaevich: yeah,but I forget how to do it [20:30] (and wish I remembered) [20:30] !dolphin [20:31] dolphin is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror → Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin. [20:31] Does anyone happen to know how to reflash a BIOS? I'm having serious problems with both my hardware and my software, and I believe it has to do with the fact the BIOS update utility crashed mid-update :S [20:31] ah! [20:31] nosrednaekim, Thank you! [20:32] nosrednaekim: lsof | grep amarok... all libs and bins attached to it in runtime... [20:33] Black_Monkey: ^^ [20:33] ah, thanks [20:33] that's a lot of results O_o [20:34] :) [20:34] :) [20:34] I'd meant which other programs use amarok as katapult does for indexing amarok files, and kopete does for the now playing script :/ [20:35] ??? [20:36] wtf is an amarok file, audio/* (mime) maybe? grok? [20:36] oops! [20:36] admin:sry [20:37] idk, grok amarok src... [20:38] has anyone tried the linuxmce? [20:38] olavxxx: just another linux... [20:39] olavxxx: nope... but I hear its really nice [20:39] I saw a vid of it, comparing it to windowsMCE [20:39] Black_Monkey: kdcop + browsing... lol [20:39] downloading the disc atm.. but I get crappy 112kb/s :S [20:39] ahh installed newest version of xchat no more join leave msgs [20:39] hey uys i restarted my kubuntu and not started in text mode, and afther sudo start x i get a error message [20:39] olavxxx: it is... except they don't have an underlying foundation... they are a linux+hack, kinda like tivo... lol [20:39] I must say the kubuntu was way better than ydl on ps3 :P [20:40] DrakeJustice_: sorry, what's that? :S [20:40] olavxxx: lol... indeed... everything is still good on a ps3 [20:40] I hope someone cracks the hypervisor [20:40] then it would be a cool workstation too [20:41] Black_Monkey: weren't you looking for what used amarok? kdcop lets you browse all of the open programs dcop 'registries' [20:41] oh ok, thanks [20:41] how can I check used resources in the kubuntu? 7.04 [20:41] olavxxx: ksysguard > resources tab [20:42] ah, thx [20:42] olavxxx: ksysguard > system load wutev [20:42] I think the install could have been a bit better fornoobs :p [20:42] I made a 2gb swap partiotion, is that good? [20:42] it said atleast 150mb or something [20:42] so I made the swap in the beginning of the drive, 2gb [20:43] depends on your memory i *think* [20:43] the hw is kindof crappy.. 2.54ghz p4, 533fsb, 2 x 512 pc3200 [20:43] but that could be XP talking [20:43] olavxxx: 2gb is mostly wasteful... unless you use 'blender' or game or something heavy... [20:43] XP as in experience, or as in Windows xp? [20:43] win [20:44] I'll just try the mediacenter.. [20:44] lol [20:44] huh [20:44] I have another pc for gaming [20:44] i hope you arent going to install winblows [20:44] this one only has gf fx5200 fanless === caesar__ is now known as Les_Caesars [20:44] the other one uses xp :P [20:44] atleast its not vista? [20:45] how do I change the key shortcut for lowering my volume? [20:45] yes as far as games it is probably advisable to have winblows somewhere [20:45] Hey, my laptop supports 1920x1200, but Kubuntu will only use 1024x768, which is hideous. How do I get it to use 1920x1200? [20:45] Les_Caesars: kmix->global shortcuts [20:45] thanks [20:45] nzk: what graphics card? [20:46] nosrednaekim: ATI Mobility Radeon 9800 Pro [20:46] I got fglrx. [20:46] nzk: oh... ok [20:46] fancy fglrxer's [20:46] nzk: modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf [20:46] That's how I broke it, TheGateKeeper [20:46] b1n42y:: yes.. I only game the different valve games (most of them) and some battlefield2, etc. so I guess I "have" to have a windows boot... === kde-devel is now known as sonic [20:46] nzk: umm, run a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" [20:46] nosrednaekim: ... [20:47] That led to around 12 or 13 reformats for me. [20:47] That's the devil command. I might as well rm -rf / [20:47] nzk: make a backup of it first [20:47] uhhh really? that always rescues me :) [20:47] I did that the last 11 or 12 times. [20:48] nzk: ok.... did you try the screens and graphics tool in the control center? [20:48] nzk: let get this straight, you messed up xorg.conf so you reinstalled? [20:48] nosrednaekim: The configuration is still the same as before, even though I remapped it. Do I need to restart X before changes take effect, or is there a less session-closing way of doing that? [20:48] Les_Caesars: what did you remap it to? [20:48] X86RaiseVolume [20:49] I love the GUI in the kubuntu [20:49] also everything works :) [20:49] lower volume works just fine. But raisevolume doesn't change the volume. Key's recognized just fine though [20:49] TheGateKeeper: Yes, I got tired after asking on IRC for weeks and making dozens of topics on every Linux help board imaginable. [20:49] So it takes less time to reformat. [20:49] Is there a hardware compatibility list thing for ubuntu? [20:49] so I can check if hardware will work before I buy it [20:49] linuxcompatible.com or something [20:49] Why is kbluetoothd (the binary at least)gone in gutsy? :S [20:49] I seem to recall reading earlier today [20:49] In particular I want to know if the sound card: Realtek ALC883 will work :) [20:49] how do i enable desktop effects on kubuntu gutsy? am using dell inspiron 1420 [20:50] olavxxx: thanks [20:50] maybe it was org [20:50] nzk: all you have to do if copy your backup & start again lol [20:50] olavxxx: good memory :) [20:50] Les_Caesars: then yes, you need to retsart X [20:50] !hardware [20:50] For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport [20:50] JohnFlux: lol, yeah.. since I didnt even visit the page :P [20:50] nosrednaekim: darn, ok then. Thanks [20:51] osium: you need to install compiz, they're not installed by default on kubuntu [20:51] olavxxx: it didn't find it though :-D [20:51] hey the logout buton don't works [20:51] TheGateKeeper: That didn't work when I did it. [20:51] I was actually installing the xp2k5 mce.. (since I have a legal key and all), but when I got impatient and removed the bluetooth dongle during install, it would not respond when I plugged it in later, during the install process... SO I thought: **** it, I'll try another linux distro. [20:51] :) [20:52] JohnFlux: http://www.linuxcompatible.org/ [20:52] JohnFlux: I have that chip, and it works fine here. [20:52] osium: if you look on the ubuntuforums, there's a bunch of guides to installing compiz [20:52] nosrednaekim: thanks [20:52] osium, plus ive been told that the pager and compiz dont work to well so id go with gnome like i have [20:52] Black_Mo? [20:53] olavxxx: sorry I meant I went there, searched for my hardware, and didn't find it [20:53] nzk: sheesh cause it works, I even copied one from another distro cos the one I had was such a mess [20:53] ok thanx [20:53] JohnFlux: ah, ok.. [20:54] JohnFlux: this means you can post there, when you figure out that it works. [20:54] anyone can help with upgrading [20:54] nosrednaekim: well, it made more problems for me :( [20:54] nosrednaekim: it works just as it did before, only now I don't get a popup showing the volume. Raise volume still aint working. [20:55] Oh, and my drives don't mount on login. But that's a different problem. [20:55] how do i remove stuffs that got installed as dependencies of a metapackage? [20:55] Les_Caesar: like..... [20:56] i got an error while im trying to update my ubuntu [20:57] hamadooo: what is the error [20:57] failed to fetch ........ [20:57] !rar [20:57] rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free [20:57] ..... = site [20:57] sounds like network issues to me retry? [20:57] yes i think that to [20:57] how to solve this [20:58] hamadooo: google the filename then download it from somewhere else [20:58] hamadooo: restart the upgrade? [20:58] just re run whatever u where trying to d/l thats what ive done in the past [20:58] nosrednaekim: ok. I reassigned the shortcuts. Now lower volume is supposed to raise volume, and vise versa. [20:58] i did restart 4 times [20:58] The key is recognized, but does not activate any global shortcuts [20:58] ok i will google now [20:58] when you apt-get install unrar (the non-free one), it is used by the k archive manager as well [20:58] thanx [20:58] ahh then try drakejustice comment [20:58] Les_Caesar: did you restart X?I don't mean log out...I mean press ctrl+alt+bckspace upon logging out. [20:59] huh? [20:59] all good maye [20:59] tmate [20:59] nosrednaekim: yes. Exactly that. Control alt backspace [20:59] odd [21:00] DrakeJustice_, just saying he should try your suggestion if he has retried d/l [21:00] any1 know much about one cuz in the wine channel its dead [21:00] OK, trying one last time ... [21:00] oh [21:00] My screen resolution is correct in x server, but wrong when I log onto KDM. How can I correct this? I have a widescreen TFT 1280 x 800. [21:01] !autostart [21:01] To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. The package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory. [21:01] eudemus: ah..... that problem ussually arises when you have used a smaller resolution/moitor [21:01] !ping [21:01] pong [21:01] !automount [21:01] Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:01] !kickoff [21:01] Kickoff is a new KDE menu replacement developed by openSUSE. See http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2331 [21:01] Les_Caesar: for the heck of it.... do a reboot [21:02] nosrednaekim: ok. [21:02] nosrednaekim: what causes it? how do I correct it? [21:03] eudemus: I know the answer to neither of those qustions, does this happen every reboot? [21:05] eudemus: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm ?? [21:05] i dunno [21:05] eudemus: maybe it's the VGA=? setting in /boot/grub/menu.lst that's causing it. does usplash display ok? [21:06] DrakeJustice: yes, could be. But presumably that's a wizard that basically populates a file somewhere, like dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg? No? [21:07] eudemus: nah, it's not grub. i remember fixing it on my girlfriends computer. the problem is in xorg.conf [21:07] nosrednaekim: all of my global shortcuts are fouled up. Now "Run Command" doesn't work [21:07] ScorpKing: there was a problem with both of those, but I resolved it with some help from ubuntuforums (shouldn't that be "fora"?). Now the remaining problem is after kde login. [21:08] Les_Caesar: ouch... [21:08] nosrednaekim: ok. I got "Run command" to work [21:08] eudemus: so during boot it's ok? just after logging in has a problem right? [21:08] ScorpKing: nope. For sure it's taken ages to be able to get the xorg.conf right, but the Gutsy tricks in System Settings > Display & Monitor sorted it - very clever, in fact! Sorted it in a way that dpkg-reconfigure never could! [21:08] ScorpKing: exactly. It's fine right up until I log in. [21:10] eudemus: i know that it's possible to set different resolutions for each user so maybe there is a local xorg.conf file somewhere. [21:11] i've broke aptitude adept. how do i fix? [21:11] how can i enable ubuntu like window effects in kubuntu? [21:11] ScorpKing: do you think that the issue is with x then? I'll do a search. [21:11] !aptfix [21:11] 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 » [21:11] eudemus: i think so. searching... [21:11] This may not be the place for this question, but I got no help at #damnsmalllinux - does anyone know why a computer that supports usb-fdd booting wouldn't boot a working DamnSmallLinux pendrive? [21:12] E: I wasn't able to locate a file for the libdvdread3 package. This might mean y ou need to manually fix this package. (due to missing arch) [21:12] is there a way I can make KDE mount my hard drives without editing fstab? [21:12] When I try to install Java Runtime Environment from Adept Manager, it says "There was an error committing changes..." Anybody who can help? [21:12] scheater5, you could also try #linuxhelp [21:12] intExDK: yes, i've broke my apt with the same package [21:12] scheater5: or ##linux [21:13] KalEl: in what server? [21:13] scheater5, why here itself [21:13] Les_Caesar: system settings-> advanced-> disk and partitions [21:13] Thanks [21:13] Hi all! I have a problem getting my spell check to work in open office writer after I updated my kubuntu. How to fix that? [21:13] scheater5, by here i mean irc.freenode.org [21:14] eudemus: i see /home/me/.kde/share/config/displayconfigrc [21:14] how can i enable desktop effects in kubuntu? [21:14] !compiz | KalEl [21:14] KalEl: 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 [21:16] Hi all! I have a problem getting my spell check to work in open office writer after I updated my kubuntu. How to fix that? [21:17] ScorpKing: that's not it. There's also systemsettingsrc, which isn't it either. Both contain a screen resolution, but since boht are correct on my system, it can't be them. [21:17] oh it doesn't ship with kubuntu [21:17] !games [21:17] Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php [21:18] eudemus: ok. still looking.. === kristen is now known as Merritt [21:19] JohnFlux: ping [21:19] ScorpKing: I found something called xorg.conf_look in /home/user/ but I think it might have been something I put there for my own reference when I was fiddlign around. Name seems a bit suspicious. [21:19] Okay, can someone tell me how to set my nick? It keeps defaulting to my computer user name, it's annoying. [21:19] eudemus: yeah, that's not it. [21:19] DaSkreech: yo [21:20] Merritt: Settings->Identities [21:20] I need help with my network - can anyone suggest a good channel? [21:20] JohnFlux: Thank you! [21:21] so Ive just upgraded from dapper->edgy, and my laptop will now not boot [21:21] how can i set https:// links to open in firefox instead of konqueror? [21:21] it hangs at setting up console font and keymap [21:22] KalEl try right clicking a link, choose the app to open it with and flag 'Use this app as standard' [21:22] er sorry edgy->feisty [21:22] ahh i see thanks [21:22] np - try it out [21:23] i found this: http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS8745257437.html - "I personally just encourage people to switch to KDE." - Linus Torvalds (Linux founder) [21:23] this is nice :) [21:24] Yeah, that's nice. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, you know? Good KDE, good. *pets* [21:24] eudemus: i don't see anything. :( could i have a look at your xorg.conf? [21:25] The ONE thing I like about GNOME: The ability to make icons on your desktop different sizes at will. I wish I could do that with KDE. [21:25] hmm.. that is nice. [21:25] ScorpKing: how do I send it to you? I'm using Konversation ..... [21:25] !paste | eudemus [21:26] eudemus: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [21:26] there ^ [21:26] damn i cant thank militant potato..... thanks militant wherever you are in cyberspace [21:26] Merritt: you could do that with KDE4 [21:26] Any suggestions: IRC channel where I can get networking woes help [21:26] soon, 1 sec [21:26] soon: right here. [21:26] emilsedgh: I was hoping they'd add that in v4, but it won't be out for a while yet. Really looking forward to it though, KDE4 looks real nice :) [21:27] lol was going to look for appropraite channel ;p [21:27] soon: explain your problem. we all use networks here. [21:27] One would hope. [21:27] lol [21:28] ScorpKing: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42738/ [21:28] I play DoD on my XP and every now and then (30-90 minutes or so) I loose the connection for 15-20 seconds (also loose my score :-) ... also my downspeed should be 8 Mb, it is actually 5 Mb [21:28] My ISP says line is okay [21:28] Well, my dad FINALLY does. He got highspeed last week... after waiting for 7 years. ^_^ lmao [21:28] Merritt: yes it does [21:28] I have a Linksys router (setup is okay as far as I can see) [21:28] this will be good happens to me ..but im pretty sure mine is line [21:28] wireless and wires all mixed up - but all of it dhcp [21:29] What I need really, is to get some info on what happens when I loose connection [21:29] somekinda app, that will log or monitor or what have you [21:29] i have the same problem soon [21:29] soon: Personally (the girl with a really bad router) I find wireless often chokes the speed, even for the hard lines. :) [21:30] soon, try isolating if possible [21:30] This seems to be unrelated to the other activity (if any) on my lan [21:30] soon, i have tried just hard lines and i get same problem but maybe in soons case it is wireless [21:30] (it happens post-midnight when the wife is a sleep :-) [21:30] soon: the wired and wireless network might have different gateways and dns which will help you loos your connection. lol [21:31] loose* [21:31] wow! [21:31] lose [21:31] soon: pics of wife? [21:31] My system isn't popping up a window with optins when I put in a dvd movie. How do I get that functionality? [21:31] * ScorpKing can't spell.. [21:31] all gid [21:31] hmm .. I can check the router setup again - re. the wired/wireless thing .... [21:32] ScorpKing, how to check this [21:32] How install a theme in KDE 3.5.8 from http://www.kde-look.org?? [21:33] !kde themes [21:33] Sorry, I don't know anything about kde themes - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:33] meh [21:33] !kde theme [21:33] Sorry, I don't know anything about kde theme - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:33] b1n42y: not sure. check on the dhcp servers or just disable one of the connections. setting the lease time for clients might help as well. [21:33] okai thanks [21:34] nvm, fixed it. The KDED Media Manager service wasn't running [21:34] eudemus: that file is not standard. :P did you change it manually for some reason? [21:35] cristian: That depends on the style/theme you downloaded. Is it a widget theme? Window deco theme? ksplash theme? KDM theme? [21:35] hehe. i need to get my usplash theme working. [21:35] now i gotta get some counter strike source action [21:36] ardchoille: Theme/Style [21:36] b1n42y: search in google for linux games [21:36] ScorpKing: no. I think it will have been changed by the kde utility. The only other thing I've changed it with has been dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. Or at least I think so. If I have changed it manually ever (I don't think I have), that will have only been to change the resolution numbers. but I'm pretty sure I've not done that since my clean install of Gutsy. [21:37] ardchoille: I wanna this theme http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=153&forumpage=14 [21:37] ya ive got css working b4 without sound...that is when i switched from ubuntu > kubutnu > ubuntu so i gotta insatll everything again [21:38] eudemus: oh ok. what happens if you pres ++ ? it should cycle you trough the modes. is there a useable one? [21:39] before i leave... i just managed to enable 2nd screen with seperate X... and i have seen a perfomance drop on my original screen ..is this normal ?? [21:39] cant spell either ;p === flick is now known as KalEl [21:40] lol. no idea. i still want to set that up. [21:40] ScorpKing, u talkn to me ? [21:40] yes [21:40] would some try to ping www.arcor.de and 2 or 3 other .de servers (e.g bmw.de and vw.de) and tell me whether arcor is much slower ... [21:40] kk [21:40] * Minataku meows at ScorpKing [21:40] lol [21:40] i can help you ^^ Scorp [21:40] heya Minataku [21:40] I've been thinking for a while about two X11 with 1 display [21:41] Can I run an application as root via the run command dialog? [21:41] (well vw.de doesnt exist), but ford.de perhaps then [21:41] I'm sure it's incredibly easy to do [21:41] -su application ? [21:41] lol [21:41] b1n42y: it's getting late here. maybe next time. thanks. [21:41] 2 X with 1 display ? [21:41] soon: ping google.com [21:41] ScorpKing, no worries [21:41] ScorpKing: nothing happens when I do that. I have tried that before and was a bit mystified why it didn't do anything. [21:41] Yes, two separate instances of X11 running on one local machine with one screen [21:41] ah, I found it [21:41] X x2 nice.. [21:41] Or rather [21:42] eudemus: then xorg.conf is wrong [21:42] X11, two displays on one machine, one local one remote [21:42] Minataku, sorry havent had a need to do that [21:42] ScropKing : Yeah - the thing is, I normally play DoD on an arcor server and actually Im getting pings of 50-70 msec with arcor.de, but on 10-20 with bmw.de .... perhaps the server is to blame - not me [21:42] SK: what should it be like? which bits made you say it was dodgy? [21:42] ScorpKing that is :-) [21:42] Like have tty7 display the local X server, and tty8 display a remote one, like from one of my Sun machines [21:42] lol [21:43] ahhhhh [21:43] Minataku, b1n42y: i have TV output but 1024x768 is a bit big for it. [21:43] Heh [21:43] Yeah, you'll fairly quickly overrun NTSC resolution [21:43] Or PAL [21:43] Wherever you are [21:43] lol [21:43] PAL [21:43] soon: that could be it. [21:44] ardchoille: I wanna install this theme http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=153&forumpage=14 .....and I dont know [21:44] jep (still doesnt explain my 5Mb versus 8Mb down speed of course) [21:44] PAL- Pretty Awful; Low refresh rate (actually it's Phase Altered Line, but a joke is a joke XD ) [21:44] soon, i still think its your line === Gunirus is now known as [Gunirus] [21:44] Perhaps I should just try different servers for a while ... [21:44] eudemus: heh. let me see if i can find something. i also think you should have 70Hz in there and not just the lower ones. [21:44] see if it looses connection there too .... [21:44] It may be the routing, b1n42y/soon [21:45] What to look for though [21:45] is there a good remote desktop application for kubuntu? [21:45] ScorpKing: that would be great. [21:45] 7.04 [21:45] Run a traceroute [21:45] To both servers [21:45] tried that [21:45] See how many stops and where a bottleneck is [21:45] 8-9 lines each [21:45] Look at the times, too [21:45] ok hang on [21:45] Hi i got a new wide tft screen and i was wordering why cant i stretch my video,s?

[21:47] Hi all! I have a problem getting my spell check to work in open office writer after I updated my kubuntu. How to fix that? [21:47] Well, that can happen [21:47] Especially with wireless [21:47] For something that so many people use so often, wireless is garbage [21:48] hmm www.arcor.de is nothing to do with the DoD server [21:48] eudemus: this is what mine looks like - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42744/ [21:48] When I get my own place, no wireless. Period. [21:48] lol [21:48] Minataku ... its on a wired PC though [21:48] Eh [21:48] Like I said, it's not limited to wireless [21:48] soon, is this a random thing or all the time [21:48] I've had inexplicable network drops [21:49] everytime I play - but with varying intervals [21:49] hi [21:49] It's quite possible that the game is doing something stupid and the network is dropping as a result [21:49] soon, and how frequent [21:49] every half hour to every second hour or so === Daskreech2 is now known as DaSkreech [21:49] so its random [21:49] seems to be [21:50] eudemus: backup xorg.conf and get the correct settings for HorizSync and VertRefresh. also look at the way Section "Screen" is configured. [21:50] soon, sounds exactly like my problem [21:50] i compiled and install a linux kernel by "apt-get source linux-2.6.22" and using debian/rules to compile ( like the developers do ). it compiled and installed corrrectly without trouble , but adept is telling me to update from 2.6.22 to 2.6.22, its the same version as the kubuntu official kernel, somebody knows how to fix this? [21:50] this is the correct trace route to the DoD server : http://pastebin.com/m6ec7bb0d [21:50] * DarthWar is away: Gone away for now. === DarthWar is now known as Darth-afk [21:51] I know that if I did a UDP scan with nmap, when it was done, nmap would segfault, and the network would reset [21:51] привет [21:52] I recon I should probably go and try some different servers in germany (Im in Denmark) and see if I can reproduce [21:52] soon, agreed... i still think its line [21:52] !ru [21:52] Пожалуйста войдите в #ubuntu-ru для помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke [21:52] !lvm [21:52] Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO [21:52] ScorpKing: are you suggesting that I paste in something on the pattern of yours, and see what difference that makes?

[22:07] np [22:07] alaskan: Which problems are you talking about ? [22:08] DaSkreech: Not sure, exactly. I'd heard of a lot of people having issues in here, e.g., the system hanging in the middle of the upgrade. [22:08] DaSkreetch: make sure ksysguardd is running on each machine and then just attach to each server from ksysguard [22:09] not at my machine so i can't be more specific [22:09] alaskan: Oh that's cause the servers were being hammered [22:09] linuxape: thanks mate [22:09] DaSkreech: Oh ok.

[22:33] I don't have X or anything right now, it's strictly a console install [22:33] good question why does kubuntu lag after awhile [22:33] if you couldn't get acceleration working, try envy [22:33] I want kde on it, I thought I knew the package name, but I was wrong [22:34] eudemus: control+alt+backspace. if it does not work log in an tty1 and restore the old xorg.conf. [22:34] olavxxx: You made a dir called mnt on the desktop ? [22:34] DaSkreech: the manual says I should do "sudo dpkg -i mnt/mce-installer_2.0.1-1_i386.deb" , but if I try the autocomplete on the mnt/ dir, I get only the same as is on the disc2 which I downloaded and burned to a disc.. eg. two .sh files, one cache.list and two folders [22:34] my kubuntu x64 doesn't lagg [22:34] so I need the entire kde desktop environment installed [22:34] DaSkreech: yep [22:34] eudemus: one sec.. [22:34] olavxxx: oh so you have it mounted ? [22:34] or a way to graphically search the repository [22:34] does anyone know if theres a defragmenter for kubuntu [22:34] Don_jr333, I believe you want the `kubuntu-desktop` package. That should make your system look and behave like you installed it from the LiveCD [22:34] DaSkreech: yeah, I guess its mounted.. Only thing is that it seems the .deb is not in there [22:34] eudemus: if kdm does not start log in on tty1 and run sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart [22:34] !defrag | john_it_is [22:34] thanks nickpresta I'll give that a shot [22:34] john_it_is: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units. [22:35] john....ext 2 and 3 file systems don't need a defragmenter....its not windows xD [22:35] olavxxx: Ah hold on [22:35] then how come it lags after awhile [22:35] i been using ubuntu for almost 2 years now [22:35] bad machine :-P [22:35] and the only problem i have is with the lag [22:35] I've heard arguments against that, but I for the most part agree from my experience (speaking of filesystem fragmentation) [22:35] olavxxx: this is CD2? [22:36] john_it_is: Swap most likely [22:36] i dont have a swap installed :) [22:36] john_it_is: do you have a swap partition? [22:36] no [22:36] i've set a whole HD as swap *lol* but don't need swap at all....2 GB RAM are enough for the moment [22:36] john_it_is: that is the problem [22:37] lol john [22:37] DaSkreech: yes [22:37] john_it_is: what's your load? [22:37] olavxxx: try mount CD1 instead [22:37] Don_jr333, also, if you want a "graphical" way to browse the repos, install aptitude (if it isn't installed already). That provides a curses based interface to package management === rjb is now known as drbobb [22:38] my load [22:38] DaSkreech: I havent downloaded cd1 :p [22:38] mhm... [22:38] DaSkreech: my web server support only shoutcast...I can really connect on this server with amarok to play my playlist? [22:38] 384Mb being used right now [22:38] * ScorpKing giggles.. [22:38] i have 4Gb in the system [22:38] olavxxx: I think that's the one you need [22:39] Salve O ¤ « #kubuntu » ¤ -={®} |[ R3L04D3D.ScRiPt ]| {®}=- [22:39] DaSkreech: ah, yes.. I see it now, lol.. [22:39] uhm "bash: !defrag: event not found" [22:39] reso: Yeah [22:39] maybe i got no wine update from winehq repos because im on x64 *g* [22:39] hi all! [22:39] DaSkreech: it says sudo on cd1, lol [22:39] olavxxx: Yes it does [22:39] lol [22:39] anyone know a command in kubuntu for a defragmenter [22:39] Dask: ok [22:39] john? [22:39] chyeah [22:40] there is no defragmenter [22:40] !defrag | john_it_is [22:40] john_it_is: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units. [22:40] DaSkreech: I misread somewhere else on the site that cd1 was for installing OS and cd2 for installing the linux MCE.. And I read you had two options, either A) download cd1 and cd2 and install it, or b) install livecd and then afterwards install cd2 [22:40] anyone can help me with my wifi?it worked ok, today i updated the linux headers and now it doesnt work [22:40] ScorpKing: it's not gone well. Am on v v low resolution now .... ???? [22:40] DaSkreech: but this means I have to download cd2 and test more :-) [22:40] maybe you forgot to update the restricted modules? [22:41] DaSkreech: cd1 :P [22:41] @kartika78 [22:41] eudemus: press control+alt+keypad+ [22:41] oh nice, I get 1.2mb/s [22:41] cd2 I got at lousy 100kb/s [22:41] :-) [22:42] DaSkreech: thanks for your great help, lol [22:42] olavxxx: 100kb/s is fast. :P [22:42] ScorpKing: woot?? [22:42] lol [22:42] its too bad I live so far away from the dsl junction point [22:42] my line is "20 mbit" [22:42] mh? [22:42] but I think it syncs at maybe 16 [22:42] me got only 250 KB's lol [22:42] ScorpKing: makes no difference ... ! [22:42] if I'm lucky [22:43] :-P [22:43] so anyone know about LVM ? [22:43] I dont know whatthat is, lol [22:43] eudemus: ugh. copy the old one back again. [22:43] has anyone tried running os off a 300x CF-card ? [22:43] !lvm [22:43] Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO [22:44] If I install LVM on the live CD do I have to reboot to make use of it ? [22:44] strtoupper("os"); [22:44] hydrogen: Yes thanks :) but do I have to reboot to use it? [22:44] DaSkreech: wont you loose your changes when you reboot? [22:44] olavxxx: Yes I will that's why I'm asking if I should even bother trying to do this [22:44] can anyone give me a hand with my wifi? [22:44] * DaSkreech applauds kartika78 [22:45] kartika78: I also had problems with the wifi.. it stopped at 28% or so while authenticating [22:45] kartika78: what card do you have? [22:45] but that was before it started installing from the livecd, so I dont know if the drivers have been updated [22:45] BCM43XX [22:45] olavxxx: install wifi-radar [22:45] until yesterday it worked [22:45] i have it installed [22:45] ScorpKing: I'll se if I find it [22:46] kartika78: same here. run lsmod | grep bcm [22:46] the real problem happened when i upgraded the linux headers [22:46] kartika78: i think the module does not load. [22:46] *installing wifi radar* [22:47] crap I hate my gamingpc, its noisy like hell [22:47] olavxxx: it is because of encryption on the wifi network but wifi-radar seems to work well with it. [22:47] ScorpKing: weirdest thing is that another session I have open (logged in as another user) displays fine ... shouldn't that be impossible if the x server has been restarted and is at a lower res? [22:48] ScorpKing: ok.. [22:48] ScorpKing: I wont try messing with it, before I'm done downloading the cd1 of the linuxmce [22:48] eudemus: that's what i said about different resolutions for different users. [22:48] wlan is slow anyways :S [22:48] when i tipe lsmod | grep bcm [22:49] i get nothing [22:49] ah, I cant wait.. I have disc1 in 1 minute 15 seconds:) [22:49] kartika78: thought so. open /etc/modules as root [22:50] does the printscreen button work in kubuntu too? [22:50] ok [22:50] if so,whats the equalivent of alt + printscreen (current window) [22:50] bcm43xx is commented [22:50] ScorpKing: you were indeed right! But where the heck is the relevant setting?!! [22:50] but i have installed ndiswrapper [22:50] kartika78: uncomment it [22:51] hey, that printscreen rocks!! [22:51] so this should be the motive [22:51] i must say another thing [22:51] if i boot with the old linux header, it works fine [22:52] DaSkreech: Figures, it works now that I have the correct image, lol! [22:52] eudemus: i have no idea. if you find it please let me know. it should be in the home dir of the user i think coz the users without sudo can set it. also look in kcontrol if you can set another resolution. [22:52] olavxxx: whodathunk???? [22:52] the update i made is 2.6.20-15-generic --> 2.6.20-16-generic [22:52] how can I force-delete a folder? [22:52] even if its in use? [22:53] olavxxx: rf -rf folder_name/ [22:53] olavxxx: When you press printscrenn it gives you a set of options to play with [22:53] kartika78: you cal load the module with sudo modprobe [22:53] can* [22:53] olavxxx: I think you will ike it [22:54] but i am not sure that module is right because i used ndiswrapper [22:54] DaSkreech: ohyeh.. now the installer is running :) [22:54] my eyes burn, but it was worth it [22:54] kartika78: i don't have ndiswrapper here and it works. you might have to configure ndiswrapper again. [22:55] I guess it needs a reboot after installing this driver :) [22:55] olavxxx: what are you doing? all i see is cd1, cd2 :P [22:56] but if i write : ndiswrapper -l it returns : bcmwl5 driver installed device present ..... [22:56] how do i disable the descriptions for the menu items in k-menu? [22:57] Lam_: try kmenuedit, maybe it's there. [22:57] ScorpKing: ok i'll give that a try. thanks [22:57] kartika78: the new kernel does not load the drivers. [22:58] ScorpKing: nope not there. :/ [22:58] and how can i make it load? [22:59] Lam_: press kmenu . it's here [22:59] how can i search a text in every file in my system? [22:59] kartika78: uncomment the module in /etc/modules or reinstall the driver in ndiswrapper [22:59] my poor kubuntu :( luckilly it repaired itself [23:00] the strange thing is: if i run wifi radar it alternates between connected and disconnected. [23:01] when eudemus comes back please tell him i'll be back tomorrow. he has weird problems with X. [23:01] kartika78: then i don't know. [23:02] woot, I have to read more manual now :P [23:02] nite guys! have fun. [23:03] hmm, kubuntu is 'restoring' the X screen settings when I boot, I want nvidia-settings' settings to remain [23:03] :( [23:06] ScorpKing: not sure what possessed me (well, it was someone else's advice on this channel actually) to run sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm, but when I did everything was badly screwed! am only just back. But none the wiser about what the xorg settings should be nor how to adjust them for individual users. [23:07] xorg settings are static for one machine [23:07] is it possible that updating the kernel wifi messes up!? I think this is one motive why linux fails to diffuse [23:07] You should set them once, and leave them [23:07] Unless you change hardware, drivers or options [23:07] Individual users only change their own settings within the DE [23:08] And they should do this themselves, just set up their user and leave them to themselves [23:08] not all the OpenGL screensavers are working for me... only a few are and all the rest seem dummies! [23:08] Minataku: then how could it be that when I changed the xorg settings, and restarted x, the session logged in as a different user was unaffected by the changes? [23:09] That would be the per-user settings [23:09] Which should be changed by the user [23:09] Minataku: where are they? === pierre_ is now known as e0rlan [23:09] These are likely the settings altered from the Control Center or whatever it is KDE calls it [23:09] can anyone help me with ldap? http://pastebin.org/6544 [23:10] lalala..

And how might it be possible for the running resolution to turn out different from the default X11 resolution immediately on login? [23:12] Hi for everyone [23:12] I don't know, I don't use KDE [23:12] As for how, that user has likely informed KDE that they wish for a different screen resolution [23:13] le crappie! unable to cache the disc.. I guess I have to copy the IMG file from the winDOS pc [23:13] Similar to how any Windows user can change the screen resolution of a public machine unless access to the dialog is restricted (Note, though, that Windows does it really sloppily and stupidly) [23:13] lol [23:13] I need help for kopete in Kubuntu 7.10 [23:14] I behind proxy [23:14] now that i have switched to kubuntu and have decided to nevery switch back after trying it for a while?, how can i get rid of gnome (in the interest of space)?
