| RLoggia | mneptok: is there no way to do it? | 01:06 |
| mneptok | RLoggia: because ATI's drivers are terrible, Compiz isn't working as well with KDE as with GNOME, and it's not a critical feature | 01:06 |
| RLoggia | mneptok: should i try running gnome? | 01:07 |
| amazen720 | oopse my bad it's up again | 01:07 |
| sj | ati+compiz = lose. | 01:07 |

| Azzco | I'm not able to boot from CD (only displays ISOLINUX version and date) is this a bios setting, and if so what could it be? | 01:32 |
| hagabaka | hmm, how do I start using beryl? | 01:35 |
| tuxwulf | Azzco: It seems to me if you see the isolinux thingy your system *is* booting from CD. I myself had similar problems with a damaged CD. | 01:35 |
| Azzco | tuxwulf: I've tried with half a dozen of CDs now.. | 01:36 |
| tuxwulf | Azzco > ... I see... Have you tried the CDs in another cdrom drive? | 01:36 |
| tekteen | has anyone gotten the install cds to work in qemu | 01:36 |
| tekteen | ? | 01:36 |
| Azzco | tuxwulf: only got one I'm afraid | 01:37 |
| tuxwulf | Azzco > oh.... YOU see, I have also had the experience that CDs work in one drive but not another. I think because tracks and/or sectors are not completely aligned. Did you burn the CDs in the same player as which you are trying to boot from...? | 01:38 |
| Jucato | !compiz | hagabaka | 01:39 |
| ubotu | hagabaka: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion | 01:39 |
| Jucato | (beryl's "gone" btw) | 01:39 |
| Azzco | tuxwulf: Yeah, also tried with one that wasn't | 01:39 |
| hagabaka | hmm | 01:40 |
| tuxwulf | Azzco > ... Can your system boot from any cdrom? Any at all? Or none at all? | 01:40 |
| Azzco | I haven't tried anything except for LiveCDs so I'm not sure, going to see if I've got a winXP cd or something | 01:41 |
| Azzco | Oh yeah I've tried the alternate install CDs aswell | 01:41 |
| tuxwulf | Yes... if it can boot from CDROM, then it suggests your BIOS and stuff is ok, then the problem has to be the LiveCDs | 01:41 |
| Azzco | Well since it displays ISOLINUX Debian 3.36 2007-03-08 I guess it can boot from CDs | 01:42 |
| tuxwulf | .. I agree | 01:43 |
| MementoMori | #linux-sensors | 01:43 |
| keekee | ha, people in the gentoo irc are badmouthing ubuntu | 01:44 |
| tuxwulf | Perhaps you can try a different LiveCD. Is your syste of unusual hardware ? | 01:44 |
| Azzco | tuxwulf: The thing is though... after upgrading to gutsy my CD isn't detected in ubuntu either... so I can't watch DVDs or anything anymore | 01:44 |
| tuxwulf | ... oh.. Mmm.... I have an idea about that but it is a bit too wild.... | 01:45 |

| NickPresta | shinda, which error, specifically? | 02:03 |
| shinda | NickPresta -> " skins2 interface error: no suitable dialogs provider found (hint: compile the wxWidgets plugin, and make sure it is loaded properly)" | 02:04 |
| aztyx | how do i update steam with wine? its a commando i think | 02:04 |
| shinda | Then when I try to click the open button I get -> skins2 interface error: no suitable dialogs provider found followed by the same | 02:04 |
| NickPresta | shinda, do this in a Konsole: vlc -v --reset-config --reset-plugins-cache -l | grep wx | 02:05 |
| funcrush | After turn off my system in kubuntu(kde), my pc can't boot up at once, should push the power button repeatly How can I resolve this? somebody help me plz | 02:06 |
| NickPresta | shinda, that will probably tell you about unresolved symbols, which should shed some light on this problem | 02:06 |

| aztyx | LjL: what do you mean? | 02:07 |
| dasKreech | !kr | 02:07 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about kr - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 02:07 |
| dasKreech | damn :-) | 02:07 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: k | 02:07 |
| aztyx | is somebody in here playing cs 1.6 in kubuntu? wondering if its laggy | 02:07 |
| LjL | aztyx: uhm, you seemed to be frustrated with WINE in relation to gaming software. | 02:08 |
| NickPresta | aztyx, it's frame rate is similar, if not identical to Windows | 02:08 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: There is no problem in turn off my system in window XP | 02:08 |
| aztyx | ok | 02:08 |
| NickPresta | shinda, both VLC and wxwidgets were installed from the repos, correct? | 02:08 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: right. What happens in Kubuntu? | 02:08 |
| aztyx | LjL: yes. but i dont want to get virus. all i need is 1.6 ventrilo and no more | 02:08 |
| aztyx | exept some music | 02:08 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: when I turn off in kubuntu and then, I push the power button on my PC, | 02:09 |
| aztyx | so thats better cuse other i will install some un-usefull program. that i wont use | 02:09 |
| aztyx | i know it | 02:09 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: to turn it back on? | 02:09 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: monitor says, there is no signal | 02:09 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: what u mean? (my english is so bad) | 02:09 |
| shinda | well VLC was, and I did install the wxwidgets lib also, but after since I was still getting the errors I tried installing it form source also | 02:10 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: you press the power button to turn the computer back on? | 02:10 |
| shinda | NIckPresta, but vlc was downloaded and installed from the repo's with apt-get | 02:10 |
| dasKreech | after it turns off? | 02:10 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: hm.. I turn off my system and sleep.. and next day I push the button to use my pc | 02:11 |
| NickPresta | shinda, well, VLC works here from the repos (VLC also grabbed various wxwidgets packages) so i don't know what to tell you other than uninstall VLC, uninstall your source build of wxWidgets and try to install VLC again | 02:11 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: and then, monitor says, there is no signal. So I turn off my pc again and push the button | 02:11 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: ok cool then what? | 02:12 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: I should turn off and on one more to use my pc | 02:12 |

| funcrush | dasKreech: well sorry I feel my english is so bad I'll search more info in web | 02:31 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: how long did you wait before pressing the power button | 02:31 |
| dasKreech | when you got the no signal message? | 02:31 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: 1 minute or a night(I mean sleep) | 02:32 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: ok then you get the no signal message? | 02:33 |
| dasKreech | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-default-settings/+bug/105102 | 02:33 |
| dasKreech | That might help | 02:33 |
| funcrush | dasKreech:well, the fan of power supply is work, but the monitor says there is no signal and | 02:34 |
| funcrush | dasKreech:the LEDs on Keyboard has no light | 02:34 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: did you wait after it said no signal? | 02:34 |
| dasKreech | Ah | 02:34 |
| dasKreech | and when you press caps no LED turns on? | 02:34 |
| funcrush | dasKreech: yes | 02:35 |
| dasKreech | ok | 02:35 |
| dasKreech | :-( | 02:35 |
| dasKreech | Hmm | 02:35 |
| dasKreech | funcrush: I don't know if it will help | 02:35 |
| dasKreech | But next time logout first then shutdown | 02:35 |
| funcrush | yup | 02:35 |
| dasKreech | See if that makes a difference | 02:35 |
| funcrush | hm.. yup | 02:35 |

| dasKreech | hey CPrgmSwR2 | 02:37 |
| dasKreech | Si | 02:37 |
| CPrgmSwR2 | hey | 02:37 |
| kubuntut | hi! how to install network printer? | 02:37 |
| Jucato | CPrgmSwR2: #kubuntu-devel :) | 02:37 |
| kubuntut | hey Jucato good morning... | 02:38 |
| Jucato | morning! | 02:39 |
| nosrednaekim | kubuntut: is it on windows, linux or standalone? | 02:39 |
| kubuntut | windows network attached to other machine | 02:40 |
| nosrednaekim | kubuntut: is samba working? | 02:40 |
| kubuntut | i think cause i can see/browse other pc machine | 02:41 |
| kubuntut | just the shared printer i can't see | 02:41 |
| nosrednaekim | kubuntut: ok, did you run the new printer wizard? | 02:43 |
| kubuntut | yes i did | 02:43 |
| kubuntut | tried to use the scan thingy but doesn't work :) | 02:44 |
| nosrednaekim | kubuntut: and you seletced the windows printer option? | 02:44 |
| taylan | hi all I am using kmldonkey but I can not fint my downloaded files. | 02:44 |
| kubuntut | almost all option :) | 02:44 |
| nosrednaekim | kubuntut: try running it as root | 02:44 |
| kubuntut | change the parameters | 02:44 |
| kubuntut | i did also in root :) | 02:45 |
| nosrednaekim | kubuntut: I don't know exactly how smaba works or any of that stuff | 02:45 |
| nosrednaekim | !printers | 02:45 |
| ubotu | Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 02:45 |
| kubuntut | maybe i will try again cause i update | 02:45 |
| kubuntut | but why in ubuntu is as easy as pie in adding network printer? :) | 02:45 |
| nosrednaekim | kubuntut: cause most of the development is focused that way, Kubuntu is ALMOST and afterthought it seems sometimes | 02:46 |
| kubuntut | "error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_ACCES_DENIED" | 02:47 |
| nite613__ | My laptop is crashing coming out of resume; not every time, but about half the time. I've tried the usual stuff with blacklisting (and whitelisting) the NIC module in the acpi config, but that doesn't seem to affect it. | 02:47 |
| nite613__ | Is there a decent way I can tell what module is causing the hang? | 02:47 |
| kubuntut | thats the error when i tried to access the machine whose printer attached | 02:48 |
| nosrednaekim | nite613__: video card probably | 02:48 |
| nosrednaekim | nite613__: do you have an ATI? | 02:48 |
| nite613__ | nosrednaekim: nvidia using the restricted glx driver | 02:48 |
| kubuntut | maybe i will go back to Ubuntu :) | 02:48 |
| nite613__ | Dometiems works, sometimes gives black screen, sometimes gives black screen with cursor in top left | 02:49 |
| kubuntut | can i dpkg this KDM? | 02:49 |
| nite613__ | I haven't confirmed that the machine is inaccesible from network in each scenario.... | 02:49 |
| kubuntut | since i installed kubuntu and added the gdm | 02:49 |
| dasKreech | kubuntut: You want to install kdm ? | 02:49 |
| SteveR | hello all | 02:49 |
| kubuntut | no... | 02:49 |
| kubuntut | i have this kubuntu and install the gdm... | 02:50 |
| kubuntut | can i uninstall kdm? | 02:50 |
| dasKreech | sure | 02:50 |
| kubuntut | okay lemme try that :) | 02:51 |
| kubuntut | brb | 02:51 |
| SteveR | I wonder if someone could help me with a wireless problem | 02:51 |
| nite613__ | SteveR: Maybe | 02:51 |
| SteveR | thx nite613 | 02:51 |
| nite613__ | !ask | 02:52 |
| ubotu | Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 02:52 |
| dasKreech | !wifi | 02:52 |
| ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:52 |
| SteveR | I've read wirelss docs, and still can't get it going | 02:52 |
| dgtl___ | I'm attempting to tunnel X through a 2 leg ssh connection. but I'm having problems with it. I wrote out everything out in the following pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42881/ | 02:53 |
| nite613__ | Start by telling us your problem and asking a question | 02:53 |
| SteveR | how can I tell if wpa supplicant is working | 02:53 |
| nite613__ | wpa_cli | 02:53 |
| SteveR | type that into the console? | 02:54 |
| nite613__ | Start with `man wpa_cli` | 02:54 |
| SteveR | ok | 02:54 |
| SteveR | nite613 okay so I've got an encyclopedia about wpa | 02:56 |
| nite613__ | " Start by telling us your problem" | 02:56 |
| SteveR | My problem is that when I enter all of the required parameters into network administrator, I can't connect | 02:57 |
| SteveR | Example: | 02:58 |
| SteveR | I enter then essid | 02:58 |
| SteveR | I enter password type as wpa personal | 02:58 |
| aaron_ | so was gaim magically replaced with pidgin in 7.10? | 02:58 |
| SteveR | I enter the net password | 02:58 |
| nite613__ | "netowrk administrator"? | 02:58 |
| SteveR | sorry network settings | 02:59 |
| Jucato | aaron_: yes. though nothing magic about it | 02:59 |
| SteveR | by the way (this is ub 7.10) | 02:59 |
| dasKreech | aaron_: magically? | 02:59 |
| aaron_ | if you type gaim in console it runs pidgin, I call that "magic" even though I understand what its | 02:59 |
| aaron_ | :p | 02:59 |
| aaron_ | and, it maintained your account settings, also "magic" | 03:00 |
| nite613__ | SteveR: Do you know the correct module for your card and if it is loaded? | 03:00 |
| dasKreech | aaron_: man:/magic :) | 03:00 |
| SteveR | nite613 not sure, but I believe that when I did te network troubleshooting process that it was working | 03:00 |
| Jucato | aaron_: pidgin, after all, it the next version of gaim. so naturally it would use gaim's accounts and settings. those would be carried over. and gaim is linked to pidgin for the transition :) | 03:01 |
| nite613__ | SteveR: I'm not familiar with that process. Can you type ifconfig <interfacename> and see the card? | 03:01 |
| SteveR | ok will try | 03:01 |
| aaron_ | oh, pidgin is a version of gaim? | 03:01 |
| aaron_ | I didn't know that | 03:01 |
| dasKreech | aaron_: It is gaim | 03:02 |
| aaron_ | right | 03:02 |
| aaron_ | did not know that | 03:02 |
| SteveR | nite613 it shows teo ath0s one ath0 and one ath0:avah | 03:02 |
| SteveR | both hardware addresses 00 0D 88 94 aa c9 | 03:03 |
| SteveR | both up | 03:04 |
| SteveR | correction "two ath0s | 03:04 |
| corporeal | happy halloween all | 03:05 |
| aaron_ | grdesktop is pretty slick | 03:05 |
| SteveR | nite613 short answer, yes, I see it and it is up | 03:06 |
| SteveR | nite613__ still there? | 03:10 |
| nite613__ | SteveR: At that point I'd usually try to get the card associated manuall via iwconfig. | 03:10 |
| nite613__ | TBH I have no idea how the default "network settings" dialog actually deals with setting up the card. I've always used manual scripts in the past and NetworkManager (since using kubuntu) | 03:10 |
| === hydrogen_ is now known as hydrogen | ||
| nite613__ | I would suggest checking /var/log/debug to see if there is info about what stage it gets to successfuly | 03:11 |
| SteveR | nite613__ I see Essid is "" and no WPA line | 03:11 |
| nite613__ | iwconfig ath0 essid <blah> key <haha> | 03:12 |
| andresj | I recently upgraded to kubuntu gutsy, and now kvm is not working (it opens, but then it just hangs up the machine). I am using the linux-rt kernel, which might be the problem (but I used this kernel--well actually, I used the lowlatency one--with kubuntu feisty and it worked well). Any suggestions as to what I should do? | 03:12 |
| SteveR | ok will try | 03:13 |
| kubuntut | what is the equivalent of peachtree in linux | 03:19 |
| aBadNick | if I want to update boost and qt, what command should I run? | 03:20 |
| mrukus | umm hi | 03:24 |
| mrukus | im really new to kubuntu and am having issues with some commands | 03:24 |
| mayeco | kubuntut: nothing | 03:25 |
| mayeco | but try gnucash | 03:25 |
| kubuntut | mayeco: thanks... | 03:25 |
| posingaspopular | mrukus: which commands? | 03:25 |
| mrukus | umm an echo command | 03:26 |
| mrukus | im trying to set the acer_acpi | 03:26 |
| mayeco | kubuntut: np, www.gnucash.org | 03:26 |
| mrukus | and i was following a thread | 03:26 |
| mrukus | and it gave this command | 03:26 |
| mrukus | echo "enabled: 1">/proc/acpi/acer/wireless | 03:26 |
| mrukus | and i get this error | 03:26 |
| mrukus | bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument | 03:27 |
| Bonster | any good program to hide porn with? | 03:29 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: You can't do redirection like that | 03:29 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: echo "enabled: 1" | sudo tee -a /proc/acpi/acer/wireless | 03:30 |
| mrukus | how do i do what that line is trying to do then, i have no clue. im just following what teh thread said to do in order to get my wireless working | 03:30 |
| hydrogen | Bonster: mv. | 03:30 |
| mrukus | enter that command? | 03:30 |
| Bonster | what is that | 03:30 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: That thread didn't take into account folks who use sudo instead of logging in as root | 03:30 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: That is the proper way to perform that command using sudo | 03:31 |
| pagan0ne | wheres the best place to go to get help with compiz-fusion? | 03:31 |

| alexbobp | I tried to shrink my Linux partition, and the partitioner (Partition Commander, I think) crashed. Now I have the full partition intact, but with the partition table showing the last 10 gigabytes as empty space, so it won't boot. Is there a tool that can fix the partition table without further editing partitions? I'm on an Ubuntu liveCD right now. | 03:32 |

| posingaspopular | i dont think ive used echo before, sorry | 03:33 |
| alexbobp | gparted can resize partitions, but right now I need to change the partition table without touching partitions. | 03:33 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: Are you sure that is a file which you can actually write to? | 03:33 |
| mrukus | from what i have gathered, that command is trying to put that text line, in the file /proc/acpi/wireless | 03:33 |
| alexbobp | gparted says something like "can't mess with this partition because it's superblock says it's [large number] size but it's actually [smaller number] size", which pretty much agrees with what I think happened | 03:34 |
| mrukus | but i can't do it no matter what ive tried | 03:34 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: Tell me what this command returns: file /proc/acpi/acer/wireless | 03:34 |

| mrukus | go to the partition that has linux on it | 04:01 |
| dpoole | k | 04:01 |
| mrukus | now there should be a folder called etc | 04:01 |
| mrukus | is there one | 04:01 |
| dpoole | i don't see one | 04:02 |
| mrukus | on the right hand side, under your bookmarks, is there a root folder | 04:02 |
| dpoole | no | 04:04 |
| mrukus | are you sure your on teh right partition | 04:04 |
| kubuntunewbie | is this the official kubuntu irc channel? | 04:04 |
| mrukus | the one where linux is installed | 04:04 |
| dasKreech | kubuntunewbie: yes | 04:05 |
| dpoole | i have one for windows and the other one doesn't really have the installed linux show i just upgrade to 7.10 | 04:05 |
| kubuntunewbie | can anyone recomend a good PCI wireless card for a 1999 compaq p3 | 04:05 |
| dpoole | or is there a way to configure the sound system the same as my 6.10 | 04:06 |
| mrukus | im way too new to linux to remember 6.10 | 04:06 |
| mrukus | if you know how to do that, try it | 04:07 |
| mrukus | it might work | 04:07 |
| dasKreech | kubuntunewbie: you can try in #hardware as well | 04:07 |
| dpoole | how do i upgrade to 7.10 in my 704. | 04:07 |
| dasKreech | !upgrade | 04:08 |
| ubotu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 04:08 |
| mrukus | does anybody know what the terminal commands would be to create that file | 04:08 |
| mrukus | would mkdir file /etc/modprobe.d/sound work? | 04:09 |
| ardchoille | no | 04:09 |
| ardchoille | mkdir only makes a directory, "touch" makes a file. | 04:09 |
| ardchoille | touch /path/file | 04:09 |
| hydrogen | or you can just start editing it | 04:10 |
| hydrogen | and save it | 04:10 |
| ardchoille | yes | 04:10 |
| mrukus | ohh with like kedit | 04:10 |
| mrukus | and just save it as /etc/modprobe.d/sound | 04:11 |
| ardchoille | you can use kedit, but you'll need to use kdesu | 04:11 |
| ardchoille | kdesu kedit | 04:11 |
| mrukus | that lets you write to files with permissions right? | 04:11 |
| hydrogen | err | 04:12 |
| mrukus | "super user" | 04:12 |
| posingaspopular | can't you sudo nano the file too? | 04:12 |
| hydrogen | you can if you want | 04:12 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: right | 04:12 |
| hydrogen | but | 04:12 |
| mrukus | im learning this stuff, its really cool | 04:12 |
| hydrogen | also kate is a nicer editor than kedit | 04:12 |
| hydrogen | imo | 04:12 |
| ardchoille | Yes, kate is much better | 04:12 |
| Dr_Willis | I like mc and mcedit :) | 04:12 |
| Dr_Willis | but im old-skool | 04:12 |
| hydrogen | I hold out for ed myself | 04:13 |
| hydrogen | but i'm oldestschool | 04:13 |
| mrukus | hahahahahaha | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | hydrogen: i rember ircing on a Greenbar printing terminal.... | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | If you know what a greenbar printer - then ya know how old that is. :) | 04:13 |
| mrukus | ummm, i can remeber windows 98 | 04:13 |
| mrukus | talk about oldschool | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Phhht! kids.... Stay off my lawn! | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 04:13 |
| mrukus | hahahahahaha | 04:14 |
| Dr_Willis | and pull your pants up! | 04:14 |
| mrukus | good stuff man | 04:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Bring back the Poodle Skirts! | 04:14 |
| * Dr_Willis is not THAT old. | 04:14 | |
| ardchoille | now *that* is old school | 04:14 |
| mrukus | allright im off to try and fix this wireless, ill be around though if you guys don't mind | 04:15 |
| kazuma_ | hi, can anyone tell me where is the KDE theme? | 04:19 |
| kazuma_ | i just installed a .kth theme | 04:19 |
| kazuma_ | but i don't know how to use it | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | well ya got to learn how kde uses themes.. :) | 04:21 |
| kazuma_ | =o | 04:21 |
| Dr_Willis | a theme is composed of 'parts' such as the window decoration, the widgets, the colors, and err icons. | 04:21 |
| kazuma_ | can you explain it? | 04:21 |
| Dr_Willis | a 'theme' file just defines what parts to use. | 04:21 |
| kazuma_ | oh | 04:21 |
| kazuma_ | cause | 04:22 |
| kazuma_ | i used to have | 04:22 |
| Dr_Willis | a theme file dosent really have the decor or other bits. | 04:22 |
| kazuma_ | fedora | 04:22 |
| kazuma_ | and there was something called | 04:22 |
| kazuma_ | kde theme manager | 04:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Theres a Theme factoid on the bot that details it. there ARE a great many kde themes and parts NOT installed by default | 04:22 |
| Dr_Willis | !find kwin- | 04:22 |
| ubotu | Found: kwin-style-crystal, kwin-baghira, kwin-style-alphacube, kwin-style-blended, kwin-style-dekorator (and 4 others) | 04:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Theres like 10 themes in the package manager not installed by default | 04:22 |
| drarem | in konqueror, what are all those little key-looking icons in the 'status bar', there's a long row of them | 04:23 |
| Dr_Willis | And the theme control panel icon is under Appearance (i think) | 04:23 |
| ardchoille | kazuma_: System Settings > Appearance | 04:23 |
| Dr_Willis | I always 'add to panel' -> control Panel icon. :) | 04:23 |
| Dr_Willis | or whatever its called | 04:23 |
| kazuma_ | what is the function of it? | 04:23 |
| ardchoille | drarem: sounds like the "https" icon | 04:23 |
| Dr_Willis | it lets yoi get to the settings items easier | 04:24 |
| Dr_Willis | or course if you use Compiz, then the window decoration is controled by "emerald" :) | 04:24 |
| kazuma_ | and why it's easier to have themes | 04:24 |
| kazuma_ | in fedora ? | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | I doubt if its any harder or easier. | 04:25 |
| kazuma_ | cuz | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | install the themes. run the appearance tool and select a theme. | 04:25 |
| kazuma_ | i have a yellow package | 04:25 |
| kazuma_ | and if i click it it says | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | They just packaged them differently I guess. | 04:25 |
| kazuma_ | open with | 04:25 |
| kazuma_ | theme manager | 04:25 |
| kazuma_ | or something like that | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | i cant recall ever downloading a .thm file itself.. since they dont do much by itself. | 04:26 |
| Dr_Willis | i aint used fedora in ages. could be they just got some file assoiucations set up. | 04:26 |
| === anonymous_ is now known as sup3rw0p | ||
| * feffer ...be back later: Gone away for now. | 04:26 | |
| ardchoille | kazuma_: That's a theme manager theme, as long as you have all the other components (wallpaper, icon theme, etc) it'll work | 04:27 |
| kazuma_ | and how do i install theme manager? | 04:28 |
| ardchoille | you already have it | 04:28 |
| kazuma_ | yeah? | 04:28 |
| ardchoille | kazuma_: System Settings > Appearance | 04:28 |
| ardchoille | last item in the list | 04:28 |
| kazuma_ | gtk styles and fonts? | 04:29 |
| * Dr_Willis is not in kde.. so cant lead anyone around the menus... | 04:29 | |
| ardchoille | kazuma_: No, sorry, I misread | 04:29 |
| ardchoille | hold on | 04:29 |
| Dr_Willis | of course it pays to explore the menus :) | 04:29 |
| kazuma_ | thanks | 04:29 |
| ardchoille | This is why I hate System Settings | 04:30 |
| kazuma_ | i'm really nwe here | 04:30 |
| Dr_Willis | I always add that Icon to the panel - its always the same layont then. :) | 04:30 |
| dasKreech | Dr_Willis: fluxbox? | 04:30 |
| kazuma_ | that's why i ask a lot of things sorry | 04:30 |
| ardchoille | kazuma_: open kcontrol: alt+f2, type in kcontrol | 04:30 |
| dasKreech | kazuma_: Welcome to Kubuntu! | 04:30 |
| Dr_Willis | dasKreech: sshing to the linux box at the moment. :) and irssi | 04:30 |
| kazuma_ | thanks | 04:30 |
| dasKreech | Dr_Willis: heehee | 04:30 |
| kazuma_ | ready | 04:30 |
| kazuma_ | a menu appears | 04:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Trying out some Photo editing programs for the wife under windows. | 04:31 |
| ardchoille | kazuma_: In kocontrol, go to Appearance & Themes, you'll see the Theme Manager | 04:31 |
| kazuma_ | woow | 04:31 |
| kazuma_ | thanks ardchoille and thanks Dr_Willis | 04:31 |
| ardchoille | yw | 04:31 |
| ardchoille | kazuma_: Lots to explore there :) | 04:31 |
| Dr_Willis | trying to find some idiot friendly program for the wife. she wants to be able to set one photo as the background 'faded' then select a 2nd picture that goes on top of the background thats not faded. but smaller/in the corner. Like you see in the Photo taking places | 04:33 |
| bazhang | Fedora might have some prettier artwork out of the box. But Kubuntu is way easier to install themes, artwork, etc. | 04:33 |
| Dr_Willis | I can do it in the gimp.. but SHE cant handle that. :) | 04:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Yep Ubuntu could use a bit of work in that area . not that i really care for themes and stuff. :0 | 04:33 |
| ardchoille | Dr_Willis: I was just about to say "use layers in the gimp", lol | 04:33 |
| sup3rw0p | Hi, I was wondering how to uninstall glx, or xgl. I tried to install it with compiz to get the neat effects, but my video card cant handle it. | 04:33 |
| Dr_Willis | ardchoille: she had a program that could do it (under windows) that was just drag, drop, slide teh slider. select teh overlay.. but i cant find the disks. :) | 04:34 |
| Dr_Willis | cant even rembe4r the name of the program | 04:34 |
| ardchoille | sup3rw0p: What video card? | 04:34 |
| sup3rw0p | lol, the onboard intel card | 04:34 |
| sup3rw0p | After I rebooted, even scrolling firefox is really laggy | 04:34 |
| bazhang | 945 Intel? | 04:35 |
| sup3rw0p | I'm not too sure... | 04:35 |
| ardchoille | sup3rw0p: Hmm.. not sure, I don't use onboard video | 04:35 |
| sunny_ | kde4 no startmenu | 04:35 |
| ardchoille | Dr_Willis: Show her how powerful the gimp is and she may not go back to that other stuff :) | 04:35 |
| sup3rw0p | I was just wondering how to uninstall stuff so I can get rid of it. | 04:35 |
| ardchoille | sunny_: kde4 is barely usable atm | 04:36 |
| sunny_ | and the panelbar to | 04:36 |
| ardchoille | sunny_: What did you expect from beta software? | 04:36 |
| bazhang | sup3rw0p: you want to get out of compiz, or just save disk space? | 04:36 |
| sup3rw0p | I got rid of compiz using the add/remove button, but I can't find glx in there. | 04:37 |
| sunny_ | I want to try to use kde4, if it's good or not | 04:37 |
| Kr4t05 | Does anyone know if Seveas has a Gutsy repository, yet? The Wiki doesn't say/ | 04:38 |
| ardchoille | sunny_: It's not meant for daily use right now, it's still in testing phase | 04:38 |
| bazhang | no need for it | 04:39 |
| mrukus | im back, with a question on kubuntu | 04:39 |
| bazhang | seveas repo, that is | 04:39 |
| ardchoille | Kr4t05: From what I understand, the medibuntu repo has replaced Seveas in Gutsy | 04:39 |
| mrukus | i might have been trying to do way to much | 04:39 |
| hydrogen | kde4 can actually be used daily | 04:39 |
| hydrogen | its just not that enjoyable to use it | 04:39 |
| hydrogen | at this point | 04:39 |
| mrukus | stracth my right ear with my left hand | 04:39 |
| mrukus | how can i get to teh restricted drivers area of kubuntu | 04:39 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: You might need sudo for that, lol | 04:40 |
| mrukus | hahahahahahaha | 04:40 |
| Dave__ | what are the requirements for kubuntu? | 04:40 |
| hydrogen | run restricted-manager-kde | 04:40 |
| bazhang | Dave__: in terms of ram? cpu? | 04:41 |
| Dave__ | both | 04:41 |
| Dr_Willis | rather minimal :) | 04:42 |
| bazhang | ram --512MB can do it, but oneGB is better, CPU--that's a bit sketchier--perhaps 1Ghz plus | 04:42 |
| ardchoille | iirc, 192Mb ram for the livecd | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | ive ran on less then 512mb and under 1 ghz.. but xfce may be better for anything loser. | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | lower | 04:42 |
| bazhang | :} | 04:43 |
| ardchoille | Dave__: If it's an older machine, you might look into running a window manager like fluxbox instead of a full desktop | 04:43 |
| Dr_Willis | it MAY be easier to just tell us the system specs. :) | 04:43 |
| Kr4t05 | ardchoille: Eh... Medibuntu was awful slow last time I used it. | 04:43 |
| se7en^Of^9 | strange no upgrades since one week ??? | 04:44 |
| mrukus | darn...well, at least its not somethign stupid | 04:44 |
| ardchoille | Kr4t05: Try it again, I've noticed it being faster recently | 04:44 |
| Dave__ | i have a 600 meg p-3, will it work on that? | 04:44 |
| bazhang | Dave__: with enough ram it should do | 04:45 |
| ardchoille | Dave__: I have an old PIII and fluxbox runs great on it | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Dave__: it should.. but dont expect it to be a powerhouse. :) | 04:45 |
| bazhang | might be a bit laggy though | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | ive ran on Less. | 04:45 |
| mrukus | is ndis wrapper worth it? | 04:45 |
| Dave__ | cool, thanks everyone | 04:45 |
| sunny_ | I known, Just curiosity | 04:45 |
| bazhang | as a fish wrapper, yes. | 04:45 |
| mrukus | its coming on a week with no wireless, when i go to work this weekend i will be without internet for a few days | 04:45 |
| mrukus | what are my alternatives | 04:46 |
| bazhang | mrukus: which wireless card? | 04:46 |
| Dave__ | im just having problems booting the live cd | 04:46 |
| mrukus | atheros AR5006EG | 04:46 |
| mrukus | theres so many threads about it, its gives people alot of problems | 04:46 |
| mrukus | but none work | 04:46 |
| bazhang | mad-wifi-tools installed? | 04:46 |
| mrukus | how can i check that | 04:47 |
| mrukus | does it come by default with gutsy | 04:47 |
| mrukus | ? | 04:47 |
| ardchoille | Dave__: the Alternate cd is a text-based installer (no livecd) and it can run better on an old machine | 04:47 |
| Kr4t05 | ubotu: medibuntu > me | 04:47 |
| bazhang | or perhaps restricted drivers for non-free atheros | 04:47 |
| Dave__ | ardchoille, ok thanks | 04:47 |
| mrukus | i have the driver enabled that is provided, it does say that there is no free driver avalable | 04:47 |
| mrukus | so i disable it? | 04:48 |
| bazhang | is it the restricted one? | 04:48 |
| ardchoille | Dave__: I know that fluxbox and windowmaker (both are window managers) are nice and fast, and they are in the repos | 04:48 |
| mrukus | yes, i enabled my ati driver as well | 04:48 |
| Dr_Willis | icewm and jwm are also nice and fast. :) | 04:49 |
| Dave__ | ardchoille, what are those? | 04:49 |
| ardchoille | Dave__: Window managers | 04:49 |
| Dave__ | what are window managers? | 04:49 |
| Dr_Willis | the program that does the actual management of all windows. :) | 04:50 |
| ardchoille | Dave__: http://fluxbox.org/ and http://windowmaker.info/ | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | linux is all about 'layers and legos' :) | 04:50 |
| Dave__ | ok thanks | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | blocks of programs that form the layers of the os. | 04:50 |
| ardchoille | Dave__: KDE is a full DE (desktop environment) and uses kwin as the window manager. you can use a good window manager in place of a DE | 04:51 |
| draik | Is there an app to convert a DVD for PSP format? | 04:51 |
| Dave__ | im not that advanced | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | avidumz can do that I belive | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !find avid | 04:52 |
| ubotu | Found: avida-base, avida-qt-viewer, avida-viewer, sword-comm-tdavid, avidemux | 04:52 |
| Dr_Willis | !find avidmu | 04:52 |

| Daisuke_Ido | i think i hit the fabled Ballmer Peak today... | 04:52 |
| bazhang | haha | 04:52 |
| mrukus | one last thing i swear, how can i back up my settings now so i can revert back to my present setting if i screw something up | 04:53 |
| Dave__ | il just try the alternate cd | 04:53 |
| mrukus | can i make like a backup dvd or somethign to restore my system to its present condition | 04:53 |
| Daisuke_Ido | for two weeks i've been sitting down almost daily at my laptop, opening jbuilder, and false-starting on this project for class | 04:53 |
| ubuntu__ | anyone can give me a serial and authorization key for autocad 2007 | 04:53 |
| Dr_Willis | personal settings are in /home/username - just backup that dir to cd/dvd | 04:53 |
| ardchoille | mrukus: You can burn your home directory to a cd/dvd | 04:53 |
| Daisuke_Ido | today, i sat down, fired it up, and i had the entire base of the game done in two hours | 04:54 |
| ardchoille | ubuntu__ Don't bother asking that kind of thing in here | 04:54 |
| bazhang | efnet | 04:54 |
| bazhang | is it permissible to mention the name of Ubuntu-based distros here? | 04:55 |
| draik | ardchoille: You mean I can't ask how to hack the Gibson in this channel? | 04:56 |
| ardchoille | draik: lol | 04:56 |
| ardchoille | draik: hacking is one thing, but what he asked was outright piracy | 04:56 |
| Jucato | bazhang: perfectly permissible to just mention it. of course don't expect to be able to get full support :) | 04:57 |

| Jucato | would you look at that? same version! | 04:59 |
| Cainen | Alright, I'm using a computer with multiple users. How do I downsize someone else's user folder if they're not going to use it? | 04:59 |
| Dr_Willis | i seem to recall that libfaad was not on one of the repos i was using.. had to change to another. | 05:00 |
| draik | It wants to remove ffmpeg libavcodeccvs51 libavformatcvs51 libfaad0 | 05:00 |
| ardchoille | Well, if avidemux and libfaad2-0 are in the same repo, why is he getting that error? | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Cainen: you mean delete their stuff? | 05:00 |
| Cainen | no. | 05:00 |
| Cainen | They don't -have- stuff in their user folders. | 05:00 |
| draik | ardchoille: I don't want to remove ffmpeg | 05:01 |
| Cainen | they're taking up gigs of space that they don't use;. | 05:01 |
| draik | Alternative? | 05:01 |
| Jucato | Cainen: if they don't have files in their user folder, then they're not taking up space at all | 05:01 |
| Angelus | is there some tool to terminate unneeded processes in linux or to clear the memory? | 05:01 |
| Cainen | that's not what I mean <_> | 05:01 |
| ardchoille | draik: does libfaad2-0 provide the same functionality as ffmpeg? | 05:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Jucato: :) i was wondering that also. | 05:01 |
| Cainen | see | 05:01 |
| * Jucato looks | 05:01 | |
| anton_ | Hello there, I'm trying to install Nvidia graphics card drivers for linux (I have Kubuntu 7.04), and I get a message saying that x-server is already running. What can I do to change this? I am a newbie at Linux. | 05:01 |
| Jucato | !nvidia | anton_ | 05:01 |
| ubotu | anton_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:01 |
| Jucato | just follow the guide for nvidia and kubuntu 7.04 ^^^^ | 05:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | anton_: first, you install them from the repo, not the .run you got from nvidia's website... | 05:02 |
| Kr4t05 | ardchoille: Medibuntu is only giving me about 6kbps. :/ | 05:02 |
| Jucato | Cainen: yes please do explain | 05:02 |
| Cainen | basically, I want to resize the alloted space so I can use it myself. | 05:02 |
| anton_ | repo? | 05:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | !repositories | anton_ | 05:02 |
| ubotu | anton_: The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu | 05:02 |
| anton_ | Thank you. | 05:02 |
| Jucato | Cainen: why? are the other users' home folder in a different partition from your own home folder? | 05:02 |
| ardchoille | Kr4t05: No idea why it's faster for me. Maybe a different country? | 05:02 |
| Cainen | No, and that's the problem. | 05:03 |
| Angelus | andresj: K-menu , system settings, restricted drivers. switch to administrator mode and mark the nvidia driver, a window will open press enable, it will install the nvidia driver, when it finishes it will tell you it needs a computer restart, so reboot you're computer. :) | 05:03 |
| Cainen | It's cutting the space inbetween the users. | 05:03 |
| andresj | Angelus, I already got that. | 05:03 |
| Angelus | * anton_: K-menu , system settings, restricted drivers. switch to administrator mode and mark the nvidia driver, a window will open press enable, it will install the nvidia driver, when it finishes it will tell you it needs a computer restart, so reboot you're computer. :) | 05:03 |
| Jucato | Cainen: what do you mean? all user folders are under /home, and /home is in a separate partition? | 05:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Cainen: simple fix. is just make a directoy on the other partition, chown it to be owned by who you want to use it. then just link it to the Users home dir as /home/user/Otherstorage or similer | 05:03 |
| andresj | oh ok | 05:03 |
| Jucato | Angelus: there's no restricted manager in 7.04 | 05:03 |
| Angelus | andresj: my bad, i mistaken the nick | 05:03 |
| andresj | Angelus, I thought you were answering my question from about 4 hours ago :) | 05:04 |
| Angelus | oh he's using 7.04 | 05:04 |
| Jucato | Dr_Willis: you understood what he meant? good for you :/ | 05:04 |
| Cainen | let me see. | 05:04 |
| Angelus | what was you're question andresj | 05:04 |
| anton_ | Angelus: I can't find "restricted drivers" | 05:04 |
| Kr4t05 | ardchoille: I'm USA Eastern, what about you? | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | I have a user with storage dirs on 4 different hds :) | 05:04 |
| draik | For everyone here using Gutsy. How do you like it? Stable enough for novice users to use? | 05:04 |
| Jucato | Angelus: Linux is smart about memory management. the memory that apss don't use is used for disk cache. if more apps need more memory, it reallocates | 05:04 |
| andresj | what could I do to get kvm working, because now it doesn't work (I recently updated/replaced with gutsy)... I think it doesn't work because I'm using linux-rt kernel, but I'm not sure. | 05:05 |
| ardchoille | Kr4t05: Seattle. I don't know what to say then, medibuntu is good here | 05:05 |
| Kr4t05 | That's strange. | 05:05 |
| Angelus | anton_: you're running an outdated and unsupported version of kubuntu, download / upgrade to kubuntu gutsy | 05:05 |
| Jucato | Angelus: wrong | 05:05 |
| Angelus | why? | 05:05 |
| anton_ | Mind giving me a link? | 05:05 |
| Jucato | Feisty is supported until 8.10 | 05:05 |
| ardchoille | Angelus: It *is* supported | 05:05 |
| Cainen | draik: I haven't had issues with it that weren't caused by unsupported hardware. | 05:05 |
| Angelus | Jucato: aint the only version supported more then 6months kubuntu dapper? | 05:06 |
| * Dr_Willis will stick withy Gutsy | 05:06 | |
| Jucato | all regular (non-LTS) releases are supported for 18 months | 05:06 |
| Angelus | and still, its a good idea to update | 05:06 |
| Jucato | Angelus: no. | 05:06 |
| Jucato | the lifespan is 18 months not 6 months | 05:06 |
| Jucato | the development cycle is the 6 months one | 05:06 |
| Angelus | anton_: http://kubuntu.com , go to download, and download. :) | 05:06 |
| anton_ | Sure, I'll update if anyone could give me a link with some info. I'm really new to this. :) | 05:06 |
| anton_ | Aha. | 05:06 |
| Jucato | anton_: the guide for upgrading is in the channel topic | 05:06 |
| * Jucato doesn't recommend upgrading just to get the restricted devices manager | 05:07 | |
| draik | Cainen: What isn't supported? | 05:07 |
| Jucato | it's not a necessity, only a convenience | 05:07 |
| * posingaspopular doesn't recommend upgrading via a GUI | 05:07 | |
| Angelus | anton_: if you want the dvd version , download the torrent file and use a torrent client to download. if you want the cd version choose a link near you or a link of you're country | 05:07 |
| Angelus | Jucato: its still a good idead to upgrade but no? | 05:07 |
| Jucato | no. not always | 05:08 |
| Cainen | draik: My laptop's sound card chipset. | 05:08 |
| Cainen | Doesn't work with headphones. | 05:08 |
| * andresj agrees with posingaspopular | 05:08 | |
| Daisuke_Ido | the... chipset doesn't work with headphones | 05:08 |
| * andresj didn't have luck using adept updater to get gutsy | 05:08 | |
| Cainen | same. | 05:08 |
| Cainen | Or synaptic | 05:08 |
| Cainen | Both crashed. I just dist-upgraded. | 05:08 |
| Cainen | =/ | 05:08 |
| Jucato | posingaspopular: unfortunately, only the GUI method upgrading to gutsy ensures that you get the correct packages before starting the upgrade | 05:08 |
| Jucato | (before and after) | 05:09 |
| Angelus | its a good idea to download the cd/dvd and format, thats the best way | 05:09 |
| ardchoille | I only upgraded once, it broke almost everyting.. I'll never do it again | 05:09 |
| Cainen | I upgraded from 6.06 to 7.10. | 05:09 |
| Cainen | Only encountered one bug, and it's not killing my comp. | 05:09 |
| Jucato | straight from 6.06 to 7.10? | 05:09 |
| Cainen | no | 05:09 |
| * ronin_ yawns and puts his candy down, opting for tea | 05:09 | |
| ardchoille | Cainen: I hope you didn't skip releases | 05:09 |
| Cainen | from 6.06 to 6.10 to 7.04 to 7.10 RC3 | 05:09 |
| ardchoille | right | 05:10 |
| Jucato | oh ok. good | 05:10 |
| === rich__ is now known as Cacher | ||
| Daisuke_Ido | ballsy | 05:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that edgy > feisty upgrade was dicey at best | 05:10 |
| draik | With the upgrade to the new repos, what happens to the old ones? Medibuntu, Mintbox, Compiz/Beryl, etc? | 05:10 |
| draik | Why can't you skip on upgrades? | 05:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | well, beryl no longer exists and isn't supported | 05:10 |
| Jucato | draik: the upgrade tool disables the 3rd party repos | 05:10 |
| mm_202 | Im sure everyone asks this, but whats the url for the guide of how to upgrade to 7.10 from 7.04? | 05:10 |
| Jucato | and compiz-fusion is in the official repos already | 05:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | compiz is in the main repos | 05:10 |
| ardchoille | !upgrade | 05:10 |
| Cainen | draik: because you need to upgrade step-by-step | 05:10 |
| ubotu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 05:10 |
| draik | !upgrade | 05:10 |
| mm_202 | ardchoille: danke | 05:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | mm_202: it's in the topic, you just joined, it should be visible | 05:11 |
| Angelus | hmm | 05:11 |
| Jucato | draik: because it's not supported (skipping releases) | 05:11 |
| ronin_ | Is anyone having ANY luck with OpenGL and the new ATI 8.43 driver perchance? | 05:11 |
| Angelus | an upgrade requires a computer reboot i bet? | 05:11 |
| draik | Angelus: Not true | 05:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Angelus: eventually, you're going to a new kernel... if you want to take advantage of it, then yes | 05:11 |
| Angelus | well gutsy uses a different kernel | 05:11 |
| draik | What happens to all of my current apps? | 05:12 |
| === rich__ is now known as Cacher | ||
| anton_ | "Could not verify the integrity of the upgrader application" <---What does this mean? | 05:12 |
| Jucato | you only need to reboot if you want to use the new kernel. you can keep on using the same kernel until you reboot | 05:12 |
| ardchoille | I have a feeling they'll solve that too someday (switching kernels without reboot) | 05:12 |
| Jucato | draik: they get updated | 05:12 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: most probably not... | 05:12 |
| Jucato | that's kinda technically impossible... | 05:12 |
| draik | What if there isn't an update/upgrade? Beryl for example. | 05:12 |
| Jucato | draik: they remain the same. | 05:12 |
| mm_202 | Daisuke_Ido: yeah, sorry, read the last two lines, missed the first. | 05:12 |
| Angelus | i heared there is somekind of tool | 05:13 |
| Jucato | unless they somehow conflict w/ something in the official repos, in which case they might get removed.. not reallysure | 05:13 |
| Angelus | to switch kernels | 05:13 |
| Jucato | sure* | 05:13 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: so was getting to the moon at one time | 05:13 |
| Angelus | i forgot the name dought | 05:13 |
| Dr_Willis | i recall hearing about the switching kernels thing also.. but not sure how usefull that would be for a average user. :) | 05:14 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: maybe. but unless they figure out a way to take the floor from under you,without you falling... then I'd say it would be impossible at this point | 05:14 |
| Jucato | of course, I could be wrong (always) | 05:14 |
| ardchoille | ah | 05:14 |
| Dr_Willis | who knows what kernel 3.0 will be like. :) | 05:14 |
| Jucato | who know if 3.0 will ever happen at all?!? | 05:14 |
| ardchoille | Dr_Willis: I read that there won't be a kernel 3.0 | 05:14 |
| Dr_Willis | proberly has ESP modules you will load. and FemBot support. | 05:15 |
| * Jucato thinks he'll see 2.6.1000 before he dies... | 05:15 | |
| Dr_Willis | Linux3000 | 05:15 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 05:15 |
| ardchoille | lol @ FemBot support | 05:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Plug and play support....... | 05:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Then Pay | 05:15 |
| Jucato | or Pray | 05:16 |
| ardchoille | I read an interview with Linus Torvalds and he said he didn't see the need for kernel 3.0 | 05:16 |
| Angelus | why there won't be a 3.0 version? | 05:16 |
| Jucato | because the main man himself said so? | 05:16 |
| ronin_ | There will only be incomplete FemBot support. Limited resources for documentation in the community. However, NeckBeard Manager will automagically config itself perfectly every time | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | who knows what new cpu/hardware will be arund in 10 years.. :) | 05:16 |
| ardchoille | Dr_Willis: Good point | 05:16 |
| draik | Where is the CLI instructions for Feisty to Gutsy upgrade/ | 05:16 |
| draik | ? | 05:16 |
| Jucato | none | 05:16 |
| bazhang | we'll be wearing hardware in ten years time | 05:17 |
| ardchoille | draik: It isn't recommended | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Quantum computer chips, optical/holographic media... | 05:17 |
| Jucato | (because it's not recommended/completely supported) | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | and i bet we STILL have lame Copy prtetion on games | 05:17 |
| draik | Dr_Willis: I'm still waiting on my flying car | 05:17 |
| Jucato | basically: if you insist on doing the command line upgrade, we presume you already know what you're doing :) | 05:17 |
| dsmith_ | lol | 05:17 |
| ardchoille | lol | 05:17 |
| ardchoille | heh, I knew what I was doing and it still broke | 05:18 |
| draik | Jucato: You know me. What makes you think I have a clue? | 05:18 |
| Jucato | draik: that you're asking for command line upgrade instructions :) | 05:18 |
| Angelus | maybe finally i will see bioweapons walking in the street! people injected with T-virus and mutated | 05:18 |
| Angelus | mwahhahah | 05:18 |
| draik | Well, I guess I will upgrade my laptop right now | 05:19 |
| draik | GUI | 05:19 |
| Angelus | format it | 05:19 |
| Angelus | betta' | 05:19 |
| Angelus | ok | 05:20 |
| Angelus | closing all apps | 05:20 |
| Angelus | to switch to compiz | 05:21 |
| draik | What is that package that is required prior to upgrade? | 05:21 |
| === ubuntu__ is now known as pagan0ne | ||
| ronin_ | So no luck with OpenGL and the latest fglrx, anyone? | 05:22 |
| pagan0ne | anyone know why, in a fresh install of gutsy, kopete appears to not function, i enter all the info, and it wont connect to msn, yahoo, or aim... no error... not even attempthing to connect | 05:22 |
| Dr_Willis | ronin_: i recall some people having a guide url in #ubuntu but i dident follow/read it | 05:23 |
| ronin_ | Dr_Willis: Thanks. I'll check it out. It actually installed like a dream (Envy), but as I was warned earlier, OpenGL is flakey in this point release for some reason | 05:24 |
| bazhang | pagan0ne: not used kopete before, but gaim err pidgin works well here | 05:25 |
| MasterShrek | !envy | 05:26 |
| ubotu | envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly! | 05:26 |
| pagan0ne | bazhang: well i think its a problem with kwallet, as kwalletmanager wont let me create any new wallets, its asif the wallet subsystem is froze up | 05:26 |
| bazhang | pagan0ne: can you turn off the kwallet functionality? | 05:27 |
| pagan0ne | bazhang: i can but it doesnt fix the kopete problem, not sure if its actually turning off though | 05:27 |
| pagan0ne | MasterShrek: im not contecting ubotu, but in my expirence envy is a godsend, as the repo's still dont configure nvidia drivers properly straight out of the box.... | 05:27 |
| ardchoille | pagan0ne: What's so hard about typing "sudo nvidia-xconfig" ? | 05:28 |
| MasterShrek | well im of the idea that using a script like envy is defeating the purpose of using linux at all, you arent actually learning how things are working | 05:29 |
| lnxkde | anyone knows when is the beta 4 going to be realesed for kubuntu? | 05:29 |
| ardchoille | MasterShrek: I agree | 05:29 |
| ardchoille | lnxkde: Not until at least 8.10 | 05:29 |
| pagan0ne | ardchoille: the fact that it left my system (straight out of the 32bit gutsy install) with a broken x server | 05:29 |
| Jucato | lnxkde: sorry, but the most definite answer I can give now is "when they're ready"... | 05:29 |
| lnxkde | I am talking about KDE 4 beta4 | 05:30 |
| Jucato | lnxkde: see my reply in the other room | 05:30 |
| ardchoille | lnxkde: See Jucato's previous post :) | 05:30 |
| lnxkde | thankx | 05:30 |
| lnxkde | Jucato: | 05:30 |
| lnxkde | btw: what is so ^*(&$%^*($%(# bad about asking ! | 05:31 |
| ardchoille | pagan0ne: I've installed the nivida driver on 100+ machines, never had a problem doing from command line and it only takes 1 minute | 05:31 |
| pagan0ne | ardchoille: well it seems every version of kubuntu from edgy on has always managed to botch the xorg.conf file up on my system | 05:32 |
| pagan0ne | ardchoille: complete format, install fresh from dvd or cd, and then using that versions reccomended method has always resulted in a system (for me) where x would fail to start, however envy works every time | 05:32 |
| ardchoille | Funny how my 8 year old niece was able to install nvidia drivers without envy | 05:34 |
| MasterShrek | pagan0ne, thats why it doesnt work, because you dont know how to fix it because youve used envy all the time, i cant guarantee it but i would guess that after one kernel upgrade youll be left without x | 05:34 |
| bazhang | :} | 05:34 |
| pagan0ne | ardchoille: look im not trying to start a fight, ive gotten nvidia drivers up on many systems, but on THIS system, the one click method doesnt work at all | 05:34 |
| ardchoille | Seriously, my 8 year old niece uses Ubuntu, she loves it. If that's not a testament to how easy Ubuntu is, I don't know what is | 05:35 |
| MasterShrek | pagan0ne, what card is it may i ask? | 05:35 |
| Daisuke_Ido | how would i go about passing the output of a string of piped grep commands to wget as a url list? | 05:35 |
| pagan0ne | MasterShrek: been through a couple kernel upgrades, and it doesnt cause many issues, i do know how to install nvidia drivers even the binary blobs, however apt just doesnt do it right for me | 05:35 |
| pagan0ne | MasterShrek: its dual Nvidia 8800 GS's on PCI-E | 05:35 |
| MasterShrek | pagan0ne, i never use apt for my nvidia drivers, so i got no idea how they work | 05:35 |
| Cacher | Daisuke_ido: in bash: for url in `piped grep command` ; do wget $url ; done | 05:36 |
| pagan0ne | MasterShrek: well _usually_ it just does, however on this system, it leaves me with "no screens found" and it refuses to load the nvidia kernel module | 05:36 |
| pagan0ne | but thats not my problem right now | 05:36 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Cacher: neat | 05:36 |
| ardchoille | pagan0ne: iirc, that's the current dirver.. easy to install | 05:36 |
| Cacher | pay attention to the ticks, ` != ' | 05:37 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Cacher: that i know, ` delimits a command. for instance, i already have /home/`whoami`/.kde/share/apps... and so on | 05:38 |
| pagan0ne | ardchoille: it may be easy, but if it leaves me with a broken x on restart (when installed through apt) i wouldnt call it "easy"... fresh gutsy install, no extras, enable restricted drivers, and bam, on reboot x wont load | 05:38 |
| MasterShrek | but Daisuke_Ido ~/ is your home dir also, no matter where it resides | 05:38 |
| Cacher | yup | 05:38 |
| MasterShrek | :) | 05:38 |
| Daisuke_Ido | MasterShrek: i'm aware of that | 05:38 |
| MasterShrek | ok didint know :) | 05:38 |
| pagan0ne | anyway, thats completly irrelivent to the problem im having, and like i said im not trying to start a fight | 05:38 |
| pagan0ne | i just need help with kopete | 05:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but this assumes you may not necessarily be looking in your own home dir :) | 05:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | wait | 05:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no | 05:39 |
| Cacher | and ~/ will work after you change your home to something other than /home/username | 05:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that wouldn't work :D | 05:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | maybe i should just keep it as is | 05:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | meh | 05:39 |
| Cacher | well, ~username/ will always work | 05:39 |
| Cacher | ;) | 05:40 |
| MasterShrek | but if you are root, ~/ will point to /root, where as /home/`whoami` would point to /home/root which probably doesnt exist | 05:40 |
| MasterShrek | a symlink would work tho i spose... | 05:40 |
| Cacher | ~root would work | 05:41 |
| Cacher | ~ = my home | 05:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i'm gonna go with ~/ for now | 05:41 |
| Cacher | ~user = user's home | 05:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | until i get it working, at least :) | 05:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | hmm | 05:41 |
| Jucato | ~ = the current user's home | 05:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | seems i need to strip the urls out of these lines before this will work :\ | 05:42 |
| Cacher | can you provide the output of the piped grep command? | 05:42 |
| Cacher | or a couple lines | 05:42 |
| Cacher | or even the input maybe we can find a better solution | 05:43 |
| Daisuke_Ido | whoa | 05:43 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it worked | 05:43 |
| Daisuke_Ido | wget's throwing errors for parts of lines it doesn't like | 05:43 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but it's definitely getting the URLs... | 05:43 |
| Cacher | if it's throwing errors, make sure they aren't empty files | 05:44 |
| Daisuke_Ido | nope | 05:45 |
| Cacher | the command i gave you should work provided that the output of your grep is a whitespace-separated list of valid urls | 05:45 |
| pagan0ne | anyone know how to fix kopete? it wont connect, fresh install, problem looks like it may be related to kwallet.... | 05:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it's grabbing every whitespace-separated entry, urls and not | 05:45 |
| Cacher | do you have whitespaces in your urls? | 05:45 |
| Cacher | well it would, my command did not filter urls out | 05:46 |
| ardchoille | should use %20 instead of spaces in url's, no? | 05:46 |
| Cacher | the $url variable was just a name i picked, not a filter or anything | 05:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | http://pastebin.ca/757343 | 05:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | oh, there's no whitespaces in the urls | 05:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but these are log lines | 05:47 |
| Cacher | ok | 05:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | [Sun Oct 14 2007 TIME] <nick> URL | 05:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it's grabbing each of those first parts then the url | 05:47 |
| Cacher | can you paste the output of your grep filter, without my script wrapped around it? | 05:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | the output? not without incriminating myself :) | 05:48 |
| Cacher | okay than | 05:48 |
| Cacher | can you describe it | 05:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i just did | 05:48 |
| ardchoille | lol | 05:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | the actual piped grep commands? | 05:49 |
| Cacher | let me take a wild guess | 05:49 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that i can do... | 05:49 |
| Cacher | is each line of output looking like this: | 05:49 |
| Cacher | mon day year url | 05:49 |
| dasKreech | Jucato: I know what kernel 3.0 will be like | 05:50 |
| Daisuke_Ido | running the bare grep command now | 05:50 |
| Daisuke_Ido | waiting for results... there's a lot to trudge through :D | 05:51 |
| draik | Ready or not, here I upgrade | 05:51 |
| Daisuke_Ido | [Thu Nov 1 2007] [00:58:54] <Demonbaines> http:// | 05:51 |

| Daisuke_Ido | !find video-intel | 05:54 |
| ubotu | Found: xserver-xorg-video-intel | 05:54 |
| Cacher | correction add this at the end: | sed 's/$.*http/http/g' | 05:54 |
| draik | Daisuke_Ido: Sorry. | 05:55 |
| Daisuke_Ido | draik: i was double-checking myself too :) | 05:55 |
| draik | Preparing the upgrade is stuck at Fetching file 90 of 95 | 05:55 |
| draik | I cannot click on Show Terminal >>> since it is greyed out | 05:56 |
| Cacher | my bad: | sed 's/^.*http/http/g' | 05:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | draik: only been a couple minutes, you're okay :) | 05:56 |
| sunny_ | I tried, but It's says I have install the driver | 05:56 |
| draik | Daisuke_Ido: How long will this part take? | 05:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | draik: i dunno | 05:56 |
| draik | average? | 05:57 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i don't really remember :) | 05:57 |

| Daisuke_Ido | sunny_: it says it's already installed? | 05:57 |
| sunny_ | yes | 05:57 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ... so what's the issue? | 05:57 |
| Jucato | dasKreech: ?? | 05:57 |

| sunny_ | So I can open google earth | 05:58 |
| Jucato | dasKreech: I do believe they have scrapped that convention as well. no more ood-even unstable-stable scheme | 05:58 |
| draik | I will leave this overnight | 05:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it's integrated graphics. the fact that glxgears worked to begin with should have told you you had the 3d drivers installed :) | 05:58 |
| draik | Thank you all for your help. As always, you're great help. | 05:58 |
| dasKreech | Jucato: I know. The odds were just as stable | 05:59 |
| dasKreech | but kernel 3 will be written in VB! | 05:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | >_< | 05:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | byebye stability | 05:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | and everything else, too! | 05:59 |
| dasKreech | that's the point I think ;-) | 05:59 |
| sunny_ | 3D driver? I can't anywhere | 05:59 |
| Cacher | LOL | 05:59 |
| sunny_ | I can't find anywhere | 06:00 |
| Daisuke_Ido | sunny_: in a terminal, type 'glxinfo | grep direct' | 06:00 |
| Daisuke_Ido | without 's | 06:00 |
| sunny_ | Ok | 06:00 |

| anton_ | If that's the case, how do I go into root mode? | 06:01 |
| sunny_ | direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) | 06:02 |

| Cacher | tab-completion on nicks <- brilliant | 06:06 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Cacher: amen :) | 06:06 |
| Daisuke_Ido | however, sometimes i catch myself getting mad at tab-complete when it won't finish normal words for me :\ | 06:06 |
| Cacher | Daisuke_Ido: lol i know. I should be able to hit the tab and it types my current thought | 06:07 |

| Daisuke_Ido | Cacher: lower default res from 24 to 16 bit | 06:10 |
| Cacher | it's a one-liner in xorg.conf | 06:10 |

| Daisuke_Ido | i just take it for granted that it's there :\ | 06:19 |
| Cacher | i was gonna tell him to save, then to do a "new session" from the k menu | 06:19 |
| Cacher | yeah it's not there on mine | 06:19 |
| Cacher | do we know what chipset he has? | 06:20 |
| Jucato | a new session doesn't restart X or start a new X session | 06:20 |
| Jucato | er.. I mean a new X session that uses the new xorg.conf | 06:20 |
| Cacher | you sure? | 06:20 |

| Daisuke_Ido | ehh? | 06:22 |
| Cacher | Jucato: long before there was an easy way to do it (k menu), I used to start multiple X servers, it was just "startx -- :Z" where Z was the display number you wanted to use | 06:22 |
| posingaspopular | yea how has the response been so far | 06:22 |
| Daisuke_Ido | what's the word, sunny_ | 06:22 |

| Lam_ | is there a way to set the storage media button back to the way it was before, in that it linked to /media instead of system:/media | 07:04 |
| tuxwulf | OK, no problem... Just saw that KwifiManager on Kubuntu s different than KwifiManager on BackTrack | 07:05 |
| Dave_ | help, i messed up my wireless settings!! | 07:05 |
| posingaspopular | !doesntwork | 07:06 |
| ubotu | Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 07:06 |

| dotz | hi, if i am administrating for more than 2 kubuntu computers, how do i update all end users in one shot? | 07:10 |
| Dave_ | guess ill have to reinstall because i dont know how i messed it up | 07:11 |
| tuxwulf | Dave: When you start your computer, does your wireless automatically connect? | 07:12 |
| Dave_ | it used to, now it looks like a ethernet connection | 07:12 |
| posingaspopular | Dave_: what commands have you tried running | 07:13 |
| Dave_ | i tried to go into knetwork manager but i messed somehing up in there | 07:13 |
| se7en^Of^9 | dotz: let me know that too ... all i found out was that you can upgrade one box and than scp /var/cache/apt/archives/*deb to the other box that would save you downloading all the .deb's again ... | 07:13 |
| anton_ | Another good audio player for kubuntu would be? | 07:14 |
| posingaspopular | manual configurations Dave_ | 07:14 |
| anton_ | I would like something like foobar2000... | 07:14 |
| Dave_ | noe it keep telling me the ip address is wrnog | 07:14 |
| posingaspopular | anton_: vlc | 07:14 |
| posingaspopular | ahhh | 07:14 |
| posingaspopular | try running 'ifconfig' | 07:15 |
| Dave_ | *wrong | 07:15 |
| anton_ | posingaspopular: yeah...I use vlc for videos....would like another for audio though. | 07:15 |
| Dave_ | ok | 07:15 |
| posingaspopular | or sudo dhclient | 07:15 |
| Dave_ | what will those tell me? | 07:16 |
| dotz | se7en^Of^9: if its a big organisation (100 computers), it will be very troublesome to rsync all the deb files, and ssh in to do update..although i think i can make a script to do that | 07:17 |
| dotz | but isn't there a better way to do it? | 07:17 |
| se7en^Of^9 | dotz: i hope so but i could not find one ... if you do please let me know :) | 07:18 |
| posingaspopular | those should tell you the ip adress and configure your internet settings so you can connect | 07:18 |
| posingaspopular | those are the commands I had to run when knetworkmanager wasn't configured properly | 07:18 |
| Dave_ | no working leases in persistant database | 07:18 |
| dotz | se7en^Of^9: yeah because so far i'm only managing 6 end users kubuntu..and it is tiring to go around upgrading it from edgy..to fiesty..to gutsy | 07:19 |
| tuxwulf | Dave > So that means your wireless is not connecting.... | 07:20 |
| tuxwulf | Dave : try "/etc/init.d/dbus restart" ....? | 07:20 |
| Dave_ | ok, so how do i fix it? | 07:20 |
| Dave_ | ok | 07:20 |

| posingaspopular | can you try installing it via an alternate cd, or the DVD version | 07:43 |
| Kamerheimer | i got a turion 64 x2 mobile | 07:43 |
| Kamerheimer | was i supp to do other one | 07:43 |
| tuxwulf | Dave: Oh sorry, my mistype> modprobe | 07:43 |
| Kamerheimer | what is alternate cd version or dbd | 07:43 |
| Kamerheimer | dvd versioin | 07:43 |
| Kamerheimer | link would be nice | 07:43 |
| tuxwulf | minus the 'l' | 07:43 |
| posingaspopular | Kamerheimer: same pace, scroll down | 07:43 |
| Dave_ | tuxwulf,ok | 07:43 |
| Kamerheimer | oh ok i see alterane now | 07:44 |
| Kamerheimer | haha | 07:44 |
| Kamerheimer | whats difference between alt and desktop | 07:44 |
| posingaspopular | i think the alternate cd installes the server edition and you have to build the desktop on top | 07:44 |
| posingaspopular | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/dvd/current/ | 07:45 |
| posingaspopular | or the DVD version lets you install with lost of other packages optional, so you can choose as you please, afaik | 07:46 |
| Kamerheimer | ahhhhhh i dotn have dvd version | 07:46 |
| Kamerheimer | i mean dvd burner on this comp | 07:46 |
| posingaspopular | ahhh | 07:46 |
| Kamerheimer | so ill have to do that one another time | 07:46 |
| posingaspopular | alternate cd | 07:46 |
| posingaspopular | best bet i think | 07:47 |
| posingaspopular | Jucato: what's the difference between alternate and normal cd | 07:47 |
| Dave_ | i give up, this is too complicated, thanks for the help anyway, ill just reinstall :-/ | 07:47 |
| Jucato | Desktop CD = Live CD w/ very simple/basic graphical installer. can't install w/o X/GUI | 07:47 |
| Jucato | Alternate Install = ncurses/text based installer, more options, can be used to install on low-end machines that can't run the Desktop CD comfortably | 07:48 |
| posingaspopular | ah okay, so Kamerheimer can use alternate to install. he's having some issues with the installer | 07:48 |
| * Jucato nods | 07:48 | |
| Jucato | I only use the Desktop CD for demos and giveaways :) | 07:48 |
| tuxwulf | Dave : ... sorry to hear that though ... | 07:48 |
| Kamerheimer | so is this gonna install it on my hard drive or just run it | 07:48 |
| posingaspopular | Kamerheimer: both | 07:49 |
| Kamerheimer | oh itll give me choice | 07:49 |
| Jucato | Alternate Install CD just installs. Desktop CD, you need to run it first before you can install | 07:49 |
| posingaspopular | ahhhh | 07:49 |
| Kamerheimer | oh ok | 07:49 |
| * posingaspopular learned something today | 07:49 | |

| KalEl | hi there is only one thing that is preventing me from a complete switchover to KDE | 07:53 |
| posingaspopular | KalEl: click 'install' ;p | 07:53 |
| KalEl | when i use remote desktop, it seems kfrb uses almost 100% CPU | 07:53 |
| KalEl | whereas the gnome "vino-server" uises no CPU at all | 07:54 |
| KalEl | on the server machine | 07:54 |
| posingaspopular | KalEl: can't you run vino-server on kde? | 07:54 |
| posingaspopular | or does kde not like that | 07:54 |
| KalEl | i never tried that don't know how to | 07:54 |
| posingaspopular | <-- runs gnometrics on his computer | 07:54 |
| posingaspopular | if you go to the kmenu-addremoveprograms | 07:55 |
| posingaspopular | up on top you can search for any suite, kde, or gnome | 07:55 |
| posingaspopular | and you should be able to find the vino-server and iinstall it on kde | 07:56 |
| posingaspopular | however, i dont know how well it will run, if at all | 07:56 |
| posingaspopular | hmmm.... not seeing it in adept actually | 07:57 |
| KalEl | yeah i could make it run | 08:00 |
| emilsedgh | anyone knows how could i rip a dvd with a specified subtitle language? | 08:00 |
| KalEl | seems like vino is much much ahead of krfb in terms of CPU usage! | 08:00 |

| dwidmann | PolitikerNEU: launchpad.net | 08:07 |
| PolitikerNEU | thanks | 08:08 |
| dwidmann | PolitikerNEU: or perhaps the ideal pool subforum of the hardy heron development subforum of ubuntuforums.org, though the first is a much better bet. | 08:08 |
| KalEl | hi, i tried desktop sharing with 'krfb' (KDE) and 'vino-session' (comes with Gnome). krfb uses 100% CPU whereas vino_session uses only 0-4% CPU. why is that? could i have done something wrong while setting up krfb? | 08:08 |

| === Delphinus| is now known as Delphinus | ||
| toby | Jucato: Yes, I know, but you still need to enable pre-release repos to install it. I'm waiting for it to come into the normal repos. | 09:29 |
| toby | Should be any day now according to J Riddell: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuGutsyComments?action=recall&rev=9 | 09:29 |
| mooper | http://rafb.net/p/OhGyDB40.html -why is my ssh doing this? | 09:29 |
| Jucato | toby: that won't happen | 09:29 |
| Jucato | toby: enabling the pre-release repo is necessary to download the version of Adept that enables upgrading to Gutsy | 09:30 |
| Jucato | toby: the separate repository is necessary so that those who do not want to upgrade to Gutsy will not be affected. only those who want to upgrade will need to enable that repository | 09:31 |
| toby | Jucato: Really? I didn't know that :) | 09:31 |
| Jucato | toby: the pre-release repository itself doesn't do any upgrading to gutsy. it only upgrade Adept (and a few other packages). you'll still remain on Feisty even after doing that. you still have to trigger the upgrade | 09:32 |
| toby | Jucato: So there is no mechanism to suggest an upgrade to users automatically? (i.e. I imagined the update manager to eventually say "Would you like to dist-upgrade?" or similar. | 09:32 |
| Jucato | toby: that's the mechanism. after you've updated Adept to the version in the pre-released repository, you will be asked if you want to upgrade to the new release | 09:33 |

| kazuma_ | =o | 09:47 |
| kazuma_ | how? | 09:47 |
| Jucato | it has a special script to install it | 09:47 |
| kazuma_ | is it difficult= | 09:47 |
| Jucato | not really. just.. um... unusual... and I don't know how reliable | 09:48 |
| kazuma_ | thanks man | 09:48 |
| Jucato | just extract the contents of the archive, go to the folder where install.all is in, then double click. that *should* do it. but I'm not 100% sure | 09:49 |
| kazuma_ | thanks! | 09:49 |
| kazuma_ | nothing happened | 09:51 |
| kazuma_ | my god xD | 09:51 |
| Jucato | go to System Settings -> Mouse -> Cursor theme and check if it's there. you might need to restart X for it to take effect | 09:52 |
| Jucato | (or you can just look or another, more sane, theme) | 09:52 |
| kazuma_ | nothing happend | 09:56 |
| kazuma_ | can you recommend me any cursor theme? | 09:56 |
| Jucato | can't think of anything | 09:57 |

| Dresken | Gah | 11:35 |
| Dresken | Sorry for all the questions, first time linux user, but how do I change the ownership of my external ext3 HDD? | 11:36 |
| fkefer | Dresken: you don't change ownership of the whole HDD but rather each single file and directory | 11:37 |
| Dresken | Well I can't seem to even create a directory on the HDD.. | 11:37 |
| fkefer | you can do this via chown on the terminal and i'm sure you can do the same with konqueror or dolphin | 11:37 |
| cee | is there some kde-beta4 packages available? | 11:38 |
| fkefer | then you don't own the hdd's root directory :-) | 11:38 |
| Dresken | So how do I fix that? | 11:38 |
| fkefer | chown <user>:<group> /media/path_to_hdd | 11:39 |
| Dresken | Didn't seem to change anything lol | 11:43 |
| fkefer | do you have the respective access rights ? | 11:44 |
| fkefer | ls -l /media | 11:44 |
| fkefer | it should say that you the user are allowed to write | 11:44 |
| fkefer | if you aren't then grant you these rights - again either via some GUI tool or chmod u+w /media/path_to_hdd | 11:45 |
| === artyom is now known as VitaminCPP | ||
| VitaminCPP | I wanna switch keyboard layout with alt+shift, how do I configure that? | 11:46 |
| Dresken | Again, nothing has changed, the terminal would just take the commands and not show anything in return <_< | 11:47 |
| Dresken | And I have now idea what to make of the things the ls -l /media command displayed | 11:48 |
| arash_ | Dresken , doesn't 'ls -l /media' return anything? | 11:48 |
| fkefer | the terminal only shows anything in return when something went wrong; that's the unix way of saying "hey, everything went well, i don't bother you! | 11:48 |
| fkefer | ok, that should well return something | 11:48 |
| Dresken | It does return some thing | 11:49 |
| Dresken | I just have no idea what to make of them lol | 11:49 |
| arash_ | !pastebin | Dresken | 11:49 |
| ubotu | Dresken: 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) | 11:49 |
| arash_ | Post the return there, unless you think there are 'private' info in the return | 11:49 |
| Dresken | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42896/plain/ | 11:51 |
| fkefer | The disk does belong to root, and you the user do only have tights to read and "execute" | 11:52 |
| fkefer | look at the first block of codes: | 11:52 |
| fkefer | (in the line that says "disk" at the end - that's your harddisk) | 11:52 |
| fkefer | it says "drwxr-xr-x | 11:53 |
| fkefer | that means: d -> it's a directory | 11:53 |
| arash_ | I can't view the pastebin result, why is that? | 11:53 |
| fkefer | then always three symbols go together: the first three are the rights for the user owning the dir | 11:53 |
| fkefer | the second three for the group the dir belongs to | 11:54 |
| fkefer | and the third for "everybody else" | 11:54 |
| arash_ | ah, firefox's fault | 11:54 |
| Dresken | I see | 11:54 |
| arash_ | for more details about that system | 11:54 |
| fkefer | so the first trippe says "rwx" meaning "read write eXecute" | 11:54 |
| arash_ | !chmod | Dresken | 11:54 |
| ubotu | Dresken: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux | 11:54 |
| Dresken | So how do I change it so I can read, write and execute from it? | 11:54 |
| arash_ | Dresken Or you can always make yourself root when writing to the disk, up to you to decide | 11:55 |
| Dresken | I'd prefer to have myself write to it from this user instead of always changing when wanting to write to it =P | 11:56 |
| arash_ | Dresken, you don't have to log out and in lol, just type 'gksu konqueror' (or 'gksu Dolphin' depending on file browser) | 11:56 |
| Dresken | Typed that and still can't write to it =P | 11:57 |
| icewater1an | how does kubuntu know when to mount a new volume? | 11:58 |
| icewater1an | because i have some encrypted disks i also want to mount automatically | 11:58 |
| arash_ | Dresken 'sudo chmod 777 <drivepath>' I think | 11:59 |
| arash_ | Dresken, 777 means everyone can write to it aswell, dunno if that is waht you want. | 11:59 |
| Dresken | Yeah well even that command didn't do anything, for some reason the permission didn't change =P | 12:01 |
| arash_ | Dresken, so 'ls -l /media' returns the same thing? | 12:02 |
| fkefer | hit: try "sudo chmod 777 /media/disk" | 12:02 |
| Dresken | Yeah | 12:02 |
| Dresken | pretty much | 12:02 |
| fkefer | you can't change permissions when you don't _have_ permissions to change them | 12:03 |
| Dresken | Ok | 12:03 |
| Dresken | that worked I think | 12:03 |
| arash_ | !startup | arash | 12:03 |
| ubotu | arash: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 12:03 |
| Dresken | Yeah that worked, I can write to it now | 12:03 |
| Dresken | Thanks =P | 12:03 |
| arash_ | Doesn't ubotu write different things in #kubuntu ? | 12:03 |

| letalis | would there be a way to load gkrellm before kicker? kicker always throws gkrellm out of where i have it setup when it loads | 13:40 |
| letalis | its a stupid question, but it something that just urks me a little bit | 13:41 |
| letalis | lol | 13:41 |
| [ifr0g] | letalis, gkrellm has an option to save placement. | 13:44 |
| letalis | yeah ive set it and kicker and gkrellm dont play nice what happens is when gkrellm loads it tries to move kicker out of the way whhich kicker moves, but "squishes" out gkrellm | 13:45 |
| letalis | so i wind up having to put it back in its spot every single time | 13:45 |
| letalis | its not a super big deal, but itd be nice if theyd both stay put | 13:46 |
| [ifr0g] | Maybe it would work if you set kicker on auto hide | 13:46 |
| letalis | thats a possibility | 13:49 |
| letalis | i may play with the panel placement options and see if that makes a difference | 13:49 |

| letalis | ardchoille: is yours setup to be treated like a dock? | 13:55 |
| [ifr0g] | letalis, tick, "allow other windows to cover the panel" | 13:55 |
| ardchoille | kicker shouldn't have anything to do with where gkrellm is placed, that would be the job of the window mnager | 13:55 |
| ardchoille | letalis: no | 13:55 |
| ardchoille | Oh, well, if you want to cover the panel, that's a different story | 13:56 |
| letalis | well once i move it into position, kicker moves enough to let gkrellm sit right next to it | 13:56 |
| [ifr0g] | letalis, tick, "allow other windows to cover the panel" and it wont move gkrellm | 13:57 |
| letalis | but the initial load it attempts to do it itself and kicker shoves out gkrellm from its position | 13:57 |
| [ifr0g] | In panel configuration | 13:57 |
| letalis | ok | 13:57 |

| ardchoille | ok, no more coffee for hydrogen | 14:08 |
| sedeki | great | 14:08 |
| christos | MarcC: in my case, vrything seems ok, but there's no sound | 14:08 |
| MarcC | kate is OK but it's kinda primitive | 14:08 |
| eeanm | ardchoille: I doubt it'd help | 14:08 |

| ardchoille | Jucato: System Settings -> Advanced tab -> System Services . When I click that there is a small window popup that sticks on "0%" | 14:11 |
| christos | MarcC: I can't find Alsamixer, i found Alsamixergui..... is that the same? | 14:11 |
| icewaterman | how can i have ubuntu automatically mount an encrypted partition when it is decrypted? | 14:11 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: weird... | 14:11 |
| MarcC | christos: that should work fine - alsamixer is run from a terminal window | 14:11 |
| MarcC | alsamixergui is the same though | 14:12 |
| icewaterman | i want to use th automounter kubuntu uses | 14:12 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: yeah, especially since I never install anything that isn't in the repos and I never upgrade | 14:12 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: it's part of kde-guidance. installed by default | 14:13 |
| BluesKaj | hi ardchoille, nosrednaekim ...was away for a bit getting some breakfast | 14:13 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: can you try manually starting it? "serviceconfig" | 14:13 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: Any way I can fix that? | 14:13 |

| genii | [ifr0g]: Specific bugs LOL | 14:17 |
| christos | BluesKaj, exactly, I've installed kubuntu 2 days ago and i can't find out why I have no audio | 14:18 |

| nosrednaekim | hi chuso | 14:19 |
| nosrednaekim | christos: what sound card? | 14:19 |
| BluesKaj | christos, have you set up audio in system settings? namely this ; k-menu/system settings/sound system/enable sound system,then choose hardware tab/select the audio device/Advanced Linux Sound Architecture, click apply | 14:19 |
| huyter | hi guys, did any of you upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10? is it very problematic?? | 14:19 |
| chuso | When I try to send or receive files over kopete through msn protocol it always crashes. As I can see, its a known bug. Is there any workaround to fix it? Thans in advance! :) | 14:19 |
| chuso | hi nosrednaekim | 14:19 |
| eeanm | I can't wait for kubuntu to get its new boot system. this bash script hell rc.d stuff is so annoying. | 14:19 |
| christos | HDA Intel, that's what it sais on alsamixer gui | 14:19 |
| nosrednaekim | chuso: not sure,I don't use MSN, you might want to ask in #kde | 14:20 |
| chuso | ok, thank you nosrednaekim! | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | chuso, there is AMSN if you think kopete is the culprit | 14:21 |

| eeanm | that works too :) | 14:25 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about bug1 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 14:26 |
| eeanm | spiroo: from your home directory, do sudo chown -R spiroo:spiroo . | 14:26 |
| nosrednaekim | spiroo: its because you started it as root once.. so that happens | 14:26 |
| [ifr0g] | genii, you can only ask for bug num in pm .. | 14:26 |
| [ifr0g] | Not here :( | 14:26 |
| eeanm | nosrednaekim: that doesn't really make sense | 14:26 |
| eeanm | root has its own ~/.kde | 14:27 |
| genii | [ifr0g]: Weird. i knew it did work tho. | 14:27 |
| nosrednaekim | eeanm: I mean,as sudo | 14:27 |
| spiroo | nosrednaekim: What do you mean exactly? | 14:27 |
| nosrednaekim | spiroo: if you have ever kdesudo'ed dolphin, thats what happens | 14:27 |
| eeanm | spiroo: just do what I said, it will probably fix it | 14:27 |
| The-Compiler | Hi | 14:28 |
| spiroo | Okay, I go to Konsole and type that or what? | 14:28 |
| [ifr0g] | hi | 14:28 |
| eeanm | spiroo: yes | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | christos, open kmix and enable Master &PCM on the output tab , thenCD& IEC playback (if listed)in the Input tab , next make sure Mix & IEC958 are enable in the switches tab , then click on settings /configure kmix and appy | 14:28 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: Anything I need to put into that bug report besides the konsole output? | 14:29 |
| spiroo | chown, does not work | 14:29 |
| eeanm | spiroo: what does that mean | 14:29 |
| ardchoille | eeanm: root's .kde is nothing but symlinks here | 14:29 |
| spiroo | It says operation is missing after spiroo:spiroo | 14:29 |
| eeanm | spiroo: did you put the . ? | 14:30 |
| spiroo | the dot? | 14:30 |
| eeanm | yes | 14:30 |
| BluesKaj | frustrating when ppl won't wait for an answer :( | 14:30 |
| spiroo | ah okay, now I did, not sure if it worked, but not error XD | 14:30 |
| ardchoille | BluesKaj: impatience :( | 14:30 |
| spiroo | Anyway, what did that command exactly do? | 14:31 |
| BluesKaj | instant gratification is the norm these days | 14:31 |
| ardchoille | yeah | 14:31 |
| eeanm | ardchoille: not here | 14:31 |
| huyter | hi guys, did any of you upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10? is it very problematic?? | 14:31 |
| eeanm | spiroo: if any files were owned by root, it changed them back to being owned by spiroo | 14:31 |
| nosrednaekim | huyter: fresh install here, but I haven't been hearing many problems | 14:32 |
| eeanm | huyter: it went fine for me and my friend | 14:32 |
| spiroo | okay, not sure why that would work, but yea maybe | 14:32 |
| nosrednaekim | huyter: mostly bad/swamped mirrors | 14:32 |
| eeanm | lol spiroo | 14:32 |
| spiroo | huyter: I have same problem, a lot of errors :D | 14:32 |
| spiroo | For instance, trashcan does not work | 14:32 |
| spiroo | It did before with development edition XD | 14:33 |
| * eeanm has a local on-campus mirror | 14:33 | |
| eeanm | 2 mbps downloads :P | 14:33 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: is /root/.kde/* supposed to be nothing but symlinks? Because that's the way it is here. | 14:33 |
| huyter | ok, thx for the answers, i'll take the risk | 14:33 |
| eeanm | ardchoille: do you have a /root/.kde/share ? what does it link to? | 14:33 |
| nosrednaekim | ardchoille: could be some kdesudo junk.. | 14:33 |
| spiroo | Does anybody know if KDE 4 will solve some bugs in some apps? | 14:33 |
| eeanm | spiroo: there will be an entirely new set of bugs | 14:34 |
| eeanm | KDE 4 is mostly rewritten | 14:34 |
| spiroo | eeanm: haha | 14:34 |
| ardchoille | eeanm: There is no /root/.kde/share | 14:34 |
| eeanm | so there won't be the old ones | 14:34 |
| eeanm | ardchoille: well so you haven't run a kde app as root that needed to store anything | 14:34 |
| spiroo | eeanm: yes, probably. But for instance, msn in Kopete does not work at all, as I see it anyway | 14:34 |
| eeanm | I'm not sure what the status of Kopete is in kde 4 | 14:35 |
| ardchoille | eeanm: I have, but it uses my user configs in ~/.kde/* | 14:35 |
| eeanm | o.O | 14:35 |
| eeanm | this must be some new trick | 14:35 |
| spiroo | eeanm: As I have heard they will release Kopete for KDE4, but not sure what that will do in the future. | 14:35 |
| ardchoille | eeanm: I noticed that when I setup kate as user and then ran kdesu kate and the settings were identical | 14:35 |
| eeanm | weird | 14:36 |
| eeanm | permission problems seem likely :) | 14:36 |
| nosrednaekim | ardchoille: it has to do with KDEsudo | 14:36 |
| eeanm | I always use just plains sudo I suppose, except for the stuff that runs kdesudo by itself | 14:36 |
| ardchoille | nosrednaekim: Ok, I also noticed that when I run konqueror as root, I do't have perms to change anything | 14:37 |
| ardchoille | !kdesu | eeanm | 14:37 |
| ubotu | eeanm: In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 14:37 |
| eeanm | yea I know what kdesu is ;) | 14:37 |
| MarcC | it's a japanese word | 14:38 |
| eeanm | well desu is | 14:38 |
| eeanm | dunno about kdesu | 14:38 |
| MarcC | they should just call it desuka | 14:38 |
| MarcC | keeps the k | 14:38 |
| Jucato | O.o | 14:38 |
| ardchoille | eeanm: kdesu for gui apps, sudo for cli apps | 14:38 |
| MarcC | kore wa k desu | 14:39 |
| * Jucato wonders if MarcC is being serious or joking... | 14:39 | |
| eeanm | ardchoille: "These errors occur because sometimes when sudo launches an application, it launches with root privileges but uses the user's configuration file." | 14:39 |
| * MarcC isn't as serious as he looks | 14:39 | |
| eeanm | so you must be using sudo | 14:39 |
| ardchoille | eeanm: I use kdesu for gui apps, sudo for cli apps | 14:39 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: can you brief me? what's the problem | 14:39 |
| MarcC | I use gksudo when I want my screen to go dim | 14:39 |
| Jucato | (provided it's installed) | 14:40 |
| eeanm | ardchoille: but that doesn't jive with what you said... bah whatever | 14:40 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: launching "kdesudo 'kfmclient openProfile filemanagement /root'" launches konqueror but with locks on everything, I can't change anything. And /root/.kde/* is nothing but symlinks (no /root/.kde/share) | 14:40 |
| spiroo | Does anybody know, I think if not sure that it is a hardware problem. Anyway my monitor when I restart sometimes blinks and does not boot OS. Then I wait for awhile and then it works, some kind of overheat I guess somewhere. And sometimes when I watch on movies, the monitor just freeze the image or everything. Then I just have to shut the power off and restart, and the boot problem there again. Very dran annoying. Is | 14:41 |
| spiroo | there something wrong with my power supply as someone has said before? | 14:41 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: lemme check. gutsy I presume? | 14:41 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: yes, Gutsy | 14:41 |
| spiroo | I wanna know if it is my monitor or something else like Power Supply is getting problem? | 14:42 |
| nosrednaekim | spiroo: maybe your graphics card is overheating? | 14:43 |
| spiroo | Or if it could be a bug in Kubuntu/Ubuntu Core maybe. | 14:43 |
| ysma | hello, I'm having troubles with X incorrectly "detecting" screen DPI on Gutsy | 14:44 |
| spiroo | nosrednaekim: Naa I do not think so, not quite convincing that it could be. My graphic card is quite new. Could it be my CPU or something like it, it sounds a lot when it happens, or it could be power supply too. | 14:44 |
| boguh | how can i use compiz with kubuntu? | 14:45 |
| ardchoille | !compiz | boguh | 14:45 |
| ubotu | boguh: 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 | 14:45 |
| spiroo | I think when I reboot my Power Supply sometimes does not stabalize the Grpahic Card to send signals to monitor or something like it. | 14:45 |
| ysma | the strange part is that am able to have a working display only when I kill kdm from the terminal and launch it with startx | 14:45 |
| nosrednaekim | spiroo: just cause ts new doesn't mean it can't overheat! what type of card is it? | 14:46 |
| Jucato | ardchoille: all confirmed. now the problem is, I don't know if it's an intended behavior. | 14:46 |
| spiroo | nosrednaekim: It is a Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT | 14:47 |
| nosrednaekim | spiroo: does it have a fan on it? | 14:47 |
| spiroo | nosrednaekim: Yes | 14:47 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: What do you get when you launch: kdesudo 'kfmclient openProfile filemanagement /root' | 14:47 |
| Jucato | same as you. locked .kde | 14:48 |
| ardchoille | Ah, ok | 14:48 |
| spiroo | nosrednaekim: I do not think the problem is the Graphic Card, not the hardware anyway. Maybe something else. | 14:48 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: ty :) | 14:48 |
| Jucato | and yes, everything in /root/.kde are symlinks. as they should be I think | 14:48 |
| nosrednaekim | spiroo: ok then.... but don't rule that out. | 14:49 |
| strebski | Hello friends! Does anyone knows something about official ubuntu packages of openoffice 2.3 for (k)Ubuntu 7.04? | 14:49 |
| ardchoille | Jucato: But they weren't symlinks in Feisty, I think that change is due to kdesuo | 14:49 |
| spiroo | nosrednaekim: huh? "rule that out"? | 14:49 |
| Jucato | prolly | 14:49 |
| ardchoille | I'm glad I brought it up, for a moment there I thought my system was screwed. | 14:50 |
| thomax_ | strebski: what about them? | 14:50 |
| strebski | there will be available? :) | 14:50 |
| thomax_ | uhm no idea, they are present in 7.10 repository | 14:51 |
| strebski | yes, i know that... | 14:51 |
| thomax_ | strebski: try downloading them there and install them manually | 14:52 |
| strebski | but i'm looking for ooo 2.3 for 7.04 :) | 14:52 |
| strebski | from 7.10 reposidory? | 14:52 |
| thomax_ | should work fine as it is java | 14:52 |
| thomax_ | jep | 14:52 |
| strebski | ok, i'll try, great thanks! | 14:52 |
| ardchoille | strebski: It's a bad idea to mix repos, if that's what you had in mind. | 14:52 |
| strebski | nope, i will only dl packages from 7.10 repository (on www) | 14:53 |
| strebski | and try... :) | 14:54 |
| ardchoille | strebski: I think you'll end up in dependency hell | 14:54 |
| strebski | hmm | 14:54 |
| strebski | whats what is your idea? | 14:54 |
| strebski | upgrade to 7.10? | 14:54 |
| ardchoille | That's what I would do before using 7.10 apps in 7.04 | 14:55 |
| ardchoille | Or just be happy with the OO.o in 7.04 ? | 14:55 |
| randy | gusty upgrade error: been sitting at preparing to configure libexpat1 and got two error boxes about debconf and x11-common. What do I do now. Been stalled for over 2 hours | 14:56 |
| thomax_ | ardchoille: or go to ooo site and download an manually install it | 14:56 |
| nosrednaekim | randy: kill it and restart from the command line | 14:57 |
| randy | norednakim, how do it restart it? | 14:57 |
| strebski | is there a big difference between ooo from ubuntu repository and from official ooo website? | 14:57 |
| ardchoille | thomax_: that's an idea too | 14:57 |
| nosrednaekim | randy: "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 14:57 |

| BluesKaj | wathek , open K3B/settings/configure K3B | 15:21 |
| baudthief | How do I start it? | 15:21 |
| Jucato | baudthief: that's normal. compiz was never installed by default on Kubuntu | 15:21 |
| Jucato | !compiz | baudthief | 15:21 |
| ubotu | baudthief: 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 | 15:21 |

| nosrednaekim | baudthief: are you using the one in restricted-manager? | 15:32 |
| Black_Monkey | hi, any idea if kde4 beta4 is gonna be in the gutsy repos soon? | 15:32 |
| baudthief | nosrednaekim: Before upgrading to gutsy, I used the restricted drivers from nvidias website | 15:32 |
| emilsedgh_ | Black_Monkey: if you have a good connection, compile it yourself, thats easy | 15:32 |
| baudthief | whether or noth thats changed now, I'm not sure | 15:32 |
| nosrednaekim | baudthief: there is your problem :) you need to reinstall it since you did a kernel upgrade | 15:33 |
| Black_Monkey | emilsedgh_: my connection is a bit erratic, really need to get a new router... | 15:33 |
| baudthief | nosrednaekim: any issues with installing the driver on nvidias website? or is there something special I need for gutsy lol | 15:33 |
| emilsedgh_ | Black_Monkey: youre on dialup? | 15:33 |
| emilsedgh_ | Black_Monkey: if no, thats not a problem | 15:34 |
| Black_Monkey | no, broadband | 15:34 |
| nosrednaekim | baudthief: its probably easier to install them with the restricted-manager in system-settings | 15:34 |
| babeck | Does anyone know if there is any plans to release KDE 4 Beta 4 packages on Kubuntu? | 15:35 |
| nosrednaekim | babeck: there are. | 15:36 |
| Black_Monkey | nosrednaekim: any sort of idea when? | 15:36 |

| snake_ | does anyone know why the servers are down ?? | 17:12 |
| |Toad | when i try to rip to mp3, it gives me an error, but the error only lists the burner and it's specs, but when i rip ot wav or ogg, it works fine | 17:12 |
| [ifr0g] | |Toad, sudo apt-get install k3b-mp3 | 17:12 |

| Jucato | (which is still the wrong package...) | 17:13 |
| snake_ | can anyone give me the default repos ?? | 17:13 |

| unf | im havin some problems installind kde4 from the repositories, i followed the instructions in kubuntu.org, but it didnt work. i dont have kde.desktop nor startkde in kde4 directory.. any idea? | 17:17 |
| ubuntu_ | how can you help me to set up wifi_ | 17:18 |
| ubuntu_ | ? | 17:18 |
| Jucato | !wireless | ubuntu_ | 17:18 |
| ubotu | ubuntu_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 17:18 |
| |Toad | damn, i had something from lame installed, but not hte encoder | 17:18 |
| |Toad | i feel like such a retard running linux after boing in windows for so long | 17:19 |
| Jucato | well you need lame to rip cd's to mp3 :) | 17:19 |
| |Toad | well, it showed in in hte k3b list, so i thought i had it installed already | 17:19 |
| [ifr0g] | Amarok : Insert your CD, then click on "Play Audio CD" in the menu. The File-Browser will come up and show a tree with several folders. For normal ripping, go to the "wav" folder, select some tracks and drag them to the desired destination in a Konqueror window. For automatic encoding, drag files from the "mp3" or "ogg" folder instead. | 17:19 |
| Jucato | still needs lame though :) | 17:19 |
| [ifr0g] | CD-ripping (amarok) requires the "AudioCD KIO-slave" to be installed. It is part of KDE-Multimedia. | 17:20 |
| Jucato | (which should be installed by default afaik....) | 17:20 |
| [ifr0g] | Nope, not installed here on a fresh install. | 17:21 |
| bazhang | I had to add it too | 17:21 |

| Jucato | really? weird... | 17:22 |
| Jucato | !rip | 17:22 |
| ubotu | To rip an Audio CD in KDE, put it in and then put audiocd:// in the Konqueror URL bar; it's configurable in system settings. Also see http://tinyurl.com/2x7qsh | 17:22 |
| genii | Ah OK | 17:22 |
| [ifr0g] | !grip | 17:22 |
| ubotu | grip is a ripping player and has a minor bug which can be solved by doing this "sudo ln -s /dev/hdX /dev/cdromN" where X is your hard drive and N a number | 17:22 |
| [ifr0g] | Gosh, there are too many ways.. | 17:23 |
| * Jucato fires up vbox to verify... | 17:23 | |
| drama1981 | so i did sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop so can have kde and gnome but now i have what appears to be the entire contents of kcontrol under apps/other under gnome. is there anyway to fix this? a logical reason why it ended up like that? | 17:23 |
| ubuntu_ | how can I find information about set up wifi in kubuntu? | 17:23 |
| sub[t]rnl | use the link Jucato gave you | 17:23 |
| Jucato | <ubotu> ubuntu_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | drama1981: its possible you may want to set some kde settings under gnome. | 17:24 |
| ubuntu_ | thank you | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | its getting these days theres so much stuff in the menus... | 17:24 |
| Jucato | [ifr0g], bazhang: kdemultimedia-kio-plugins is installed by default on a Kubuntu system | 17:25 |
| drama1981 | Dr_Willis: ok ty. that makes sense. it was just strange because it wasnt that way in fiesty plus i thought i would just get one entry that says kcontrol enstead of an entry for each setting | 17:25 |
| onialb | can someone help me with an adept problem because i try to select best server but it doesnt check the servers. maybe theres a problem with the internet connection. i am connected and i have configured the dns in resolv.conf but adept stays at 0% waiting | 17:25 |

| sub[t]rnl | dont you fall for it Alonea | 17:27 |
| Alonea | anyway, why is Adept so screwy in gusty? I can't get into it half the time. Says process is already being used type thing | 17:27 |

| === ScaryNDP is now known as NDPTAL85 | ||
| drama1981 | like i get adblock, audio cd's, audio encoding, browser id, cdrom info, ect,ect. each as a seperate entry thats why it struck me as strange. its not a big deal though i can live with that was jsut curious i guess | 17:28 |
| onialb | can someone help me with an adept problem because i try to select best server but it doesnt check the servers. maybe theres a problem with the internet connection. i am connected and i have configured the dns in resolv.conf but adept stays at 0% waiting | 17:28 |
| Dr_Willis | drama1981: cant say that vive seen that. But the menus are generated i belive from allthe .desktop entrys in the proper dirs. So may just be how they are laid out. | 17:29 |
| Alonea | bazhang: hopefully that will fix it...it does it all the time. | 17:29 |

| === Earl_of_Dunham is now known as n8k99 | ||
| drama1981 | Dr_Willis: thats true. at first i didnt know what they all were then i opened a few of em and i was like ok thats kcontrol all split up instead of being in one program | 17:30 |
| onialb | can someone help me with an adept problem because i try to select best server but it doesnt check the servers. maybe theres a problem with the internet connection. i am connected and i have configured the dns in resolv.conf but adept stays at 0% waiting | 17:30 |
| Alonea | bazhang: well, its unlocked, but whether it stays that way is another question. *glares at computer* | 17:30 |
| bazhang | drama1981: sounds like the kbfx menu (replacement for kmenu) | 17:31 |
| drama1981 | aside from that though my menus seem way more organized than they did in fiesty so thats a plus:) | 17:31 |
| bazhang | Alonea: had that problem early on, then just seemed to go away--no idea why though :} | 17:32 |
| Alonea | bazhang: sounds about right. in the terminal it complained a bit about java and I told it to bite me... | 17:32 |
| drama1981 | bazhang: umm it might me idk i just thought it was kcontrol. when ever i open any of them it says configure-kde control module at the top | 17:33 |
| bazhang | Alonea: which java? | 17:33 |
| matthias__ | problem with microphone/sb5.1: hearing myself through boxes (without delay, think no acoustic feedback), independent on running programs | 17:33 |
| Alonea | bazhang: sun-java6. I gotta have sun for eclipse. that GCJ or whatever it is, should die a painful death | 17:34 |
| bazhang | drama1981: it surely is kcontrol, just split up | 17:34 |
| bazhang | Alonea: ok. the non sun one causes serious probs | 17:34 |
| Alonea | bazhang: yeah, why are they putting it as default in gusty? | 17:35 |
| drama1981 | thats what i though. oh well though im just thrilled im machine works smoothly and my menus arent a total mess like they were when i did it in fiesty (apps not working, in the wrong categories ect) :) | 17:35 |
| |Toad | crap, he just lefp | 17:35 |
| Dr_Willis | drama1981: in the kde menus some where - they are all split up also. :) since they are seperate apps. the kcontroll thing just sort of merges them under one launcher | 17:35 |
| bazhang | Alonea: not sure, but it should roast in the hot place | 17:36 |
| drama1981 | Dr_Willis: ahh ic. ive never noticed it before but then i dont do much in kde myself my gf uses kde more than i do | 17:37 |
| Alonea | bazhang: indeed. Sun is our friend. | 17:37 |
| matthias__ | problem with microphone/sb5.1: hearing myself through boxes (without delay, think no acoustic feedback), independent on running programs | 17:38 |
| bazhang | Alonea: no doubt. :} | 17:38 |

| W8TAH|Class | ive been doing the reading suggested earlier etc re: medibuntu and non free vs free software etc. what do i need to enable youtube video to play? | 17:40 |

| W8TAH|Class | ok -- cool | 17:41 |
| W8TAH|Class | what should i be installing out of them -- its flash player, right? | 17:41 |
| frojnd | any other suggestions why I can't get back to login screen after I've installed ati restricted drivers and also xserver-xgl (I have mobility x1400) ?? | 17:42 |
| bazhang | W8TAH|Class: then install the flash non-free plugin for Firefox? or Konqueror? | 17:42 |
| W8TAH|Class | ok -- cool | 17:42 |
| W8TAH|Class | thanks | 17:42 |
| drama1981 | frojnd: you mean x isnt working your stick in a shell? | 17:42 |

| gerro | what is that plugin? | 17:55 |
| thomas_newbie_ | Dr_Willis: i want the trash can on my desktop though | 17:55 |

| dos | gnome is in ubuntu... | 18:38 |
| nerino | ok | 18:38 |
| nerino | when I modify the theme is more difficult then modify only the image of dektop? | 18:39 |
| Chris7mas | nerino in kde alt+f2 and run kcontrol then go to appearance and style | 18:40 |
| dos | nerino: you can find everything you want in KControl :P | 18:40 |
| Chris7mas | and change it from there | 18:40 |
| Chris7mas | also apt-cache search kde styles and install them | 18:40 |
| pay | is there somebody who got kde4 beta4 on a kubuntu system running successfully? | 18:40 |
| Chris7mas | i just have a fresh gutsy install and don't want to mess it :) | 18:41 |

| kalorin | since 2.2.something is what's installed for me | 19:54 |
| ScorpKing | wesley: find the package and install it with apt-get | 19:54 |
| doneill_ | kalorin: depends, i think that package is a tourist from Debian still | 19:54 |
| * lg188 going to ......... | 19:54 | |
| doneill_ | kalorin: if you want to ask the guys responsible, it's probably masters of the universe | 19:54 |
| kalorin | according to gimp it says ubuntu/debian packages on the download page | 19:54 |
| doneill_ | #ubuntu-motu or somesuch | 19:54 |
| doneill_ | hm | 19:54 |
| doneill_ | let me check here | 19:55 |
| level1 | hi guys, I have school network. My internet works well on the wifi network, but whenever I'm on the people around me start having problems | 19:55 |
| ScorpKing | kalorin: then just download it from there and install | 19:55 |
| level1 | is there a way I can check if anything's wrong? | 19:55 |
| doneill_ | still showing 2.2 here, but i'm still on feisty, heh | 19:55 |
| ScorpKing | same here | 19:55 |
| doneill_ | level1: lots of ways, the best being tcpdump on the router. | 19:56 |
| doneill_ | level1: the first thing i'd check for is an ip conflict | 19:56 |
| thomas_newbie_ | ScorpKing: so I have to install it ey | 19:56 |
| level1 | doneill_: I don't have access to the router, only my own computer | 19:56 |
| level1 | doneill_: how do I do that? | 19:56 |
| ScorpKing | thomas_newbie_: if you dont have it yes. it's a very nice calculator btw. ;) | 19:57 |
| doneill_ | level1: compare the assigned IP addresses. | 19:57 |
| doneill_ | if they're both x.x.x.12, well, there's your problem. | 19:57 |
| kalorin | if you pull a package manually and install it, does that mess with the updater or is there any real difference that might mess up anything doing that? | 19:57 |
| level1 | doneill_: you mean between me and my freinds? | 19:57 |
| kalorin | other than the package was made by someone else so you'd obviously run the risk of them adding something to it or whatever | 19:57 |
| doneill_ | no, between your PC and your friends' PCs. | 19:58 |
| level1 | yeah | 19:58 |
| level1 | its not a conflict | 20:00 |

| Strider | i have no idea haha, sorry | 20:35 |
| SalsaDoom | Strider: ok ;) open a konsole and type "apt-get install emerald" and if should say if its installed or not. Install it if its not. | 20:35 |
| Strider | i get this | 20:36 |
| Strider | E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied) | 20:36 |
| Strider | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? | 20:36 |
| SalsaDoom | Strider: close adept or the add remove programs thingy | 20:37 |
| SalsaDoom | Strider: oh yeah, or prefix the whole thing with sudo. "sudo apt-get install emerald" :) | 20:37 |
| largos | Strider: you might need to run it as "sudo apt-get install emerald" | 20:37 |
| SalsaDoom | largos: too slow! :D | 20:37 |
| largos | SalsaDoom: yup.. had to scrollback for the package name ;) | 20:37 |
| Strider | ok it worked that time | 20:37 |
| Strider | what is "sudo"? | 20:37 |
| largos | Strider: it runs programs as root (the administrator, basically) | 20:38 |
| SalsaDoom | Strider: its a handy little program to temporarily give you higher permissions, like, to install software or edit system files | 20:38 |
| Strider | oh ok | 20:38 |
| Strider | emerald is installed, what now? :) | 20:38 |
| Les_Caesars | Strider: "Super User DO" It gives you root permissions, which basically means ultimate power | 20:38 |

| Strider | this is a stupid question but, run compiz? | 20:40 |
| SalsaDoom | largos: lol :D | 20:40 |
| largos | alexander: "sudo aptitude install kopete" should do it. | 20:40 |
| Strider | just open the advanced desktop settings? | 20:40 |
| SalsaDoom | Strider: Well, do whatever you did to make the window decorations disappear again :) | 20:40 |

| flick | dthacker-work, emerald is a theme manager afaik | 20:45 |

| SalsaDoom | I thought emerald was a window manager. | 20:45 |

| earl_ | hey guys. anyone know how i can have compiz completely replace kwin? | 20:54 |
| earl_ | i'm not talking about a script in .kde/Autostart | 20:55 |
| earl_ | i want KDE to forget kwin even exists and go straight for compiz, the script just loads up compiz after my lappy is fully booted and just takes forever and is really ugly | 20:55 |
| earl_ | figured i'd ask here before i go to the compiz channel since a fair amount of money says i'll go there and they'll tell me they know nothing about KDE | 20:56 |
| dthacker-work | earl_: It would seem to me that kwin is not being started if you tell Autostart to fire up compiz. But I'd have to research that. | 20:58 |
| earl_ | no kwin is being started | 20:58 |
| earl_ | i have kwin window decorators for a second | 20:58 |

| Les_Caesars | well, for KDEwallet, I can only find a way to make a new wallet... but that's ONLY in just the iconified program | 21:17 |
| Les_Caesars | let me google around. It may not be possible to. I imagine that all of your passwords are encrypted, and it wouldn't surprise me if your password was the encryption key | 21:18 |

| Les_Caesars | is there a wallet icon there? | 21:19 |
| Les_Caesars | well, if there is, click on it | 21:19 |

| Les_Caesars | right click on the wallet that is yours. It's probably the only wallet there. | 21:20 |
| Les_Caesars | then, "change password" should be an option | 21:20 |
| alexander | i dony have a wallet icon | 21:20 |
| Les_Caesars | ok. Just a minute | 21:20 |
| Les_Caesars | do you need to change the password because you forgot it, or what? | 21:20 |

| Daisuke_Laptop | then drag the (whatever format you prefer) folder to where you would like it stored. | 22:52 |
| sub[t]rnl | i use konqueror for ripping and encoding on the fly myself | 22:52 |

| tekteen | EightyFiveOnline: what is the problem | 22:55 |
| sub[t]rnl | Les_Caesars: that export for KDWIN="compiz" in your .bashrc will load it as default instead of kwin | 22:55 |
| EightyFiveOnline | i cannot get lamp installed or nething to make it like my http,sql,php server | 22:55 |

| Sanne | UnknownUniverse: maybe nobody knows. I have libgtk, but I don't know if it got installed with the system | 22:57 |

| BluesKaj | nhe , perhaps X needs reconfiguring , try to do so using the live cd ...in the konsole, ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg '. | 22:59 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | now, as far as whoever was wanting to start compiz or metacity as kde's default window manager... | 22:59 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | you *could* potentially edit startkde | 22:59 |
| nhe | BluesKaj: already did that... got the same thing :\ | 22:59 |
| nhe | I was expecting it would be a common bug but I didn't find anything anywhere :( | 23:00 |
| BluesKaj | nhe , choose the vesa driver in oder to get a screen | 23:01 |
| nhe | there is another thing I forgot to say... | 23:01 |
| nhe | if when I'm with a black screen | 23:01 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | ah HA! | 23:01 |
| nhe | i change to another screen (ctrl + alt + F1,2,3) it will start | 23:01 |
| BluesKaj | nhe, try to get to the tty prompt , ctrl+alt+F1 | 23:02 |
| nhe | if I do that KDM will start normaly :\ | 23:02 |

| ardchoille | Daisuke_Laptop: Whoa! Nice | 23:04 |
| nhe | instead of ati? | 23:04 |
| sub[t]rnl | nhe: check /boot/grub/menu.lst and make sure your not passing a vga= in the kernel boot options. The current kernel and framebuffering are buggy | 23:04 |
| Minataku | Bored. | 23:04 |
| Les_Caesars | ok. Well, the bashrc seems to have made things faster... I -think-. Is there just some way that I can make all of my startup programs load BEFORE the desktop shows up? | 23:04 |
| nhe | I'm in a live cd so I can't see it right now... I'll do that asap (reboot the laptop in a few minutes...) | 23:05 |

| JimBob | hey folks, if i'm booting from a kubuntu 7.10 dvd how can i tell if it is installing or booting a live image? the menu entry just reads 'start or install' ... | 23:24 |
| nhe | do I will see more messages? | 23:24 |
| sub[t]rnl | yup | 23:24 |
| sub[t]rnl | and the kernel will spit more stuff into your logs | 23:24 |
| nhe | ok | 23:24 |
| nhe | I'll remove them | 23:25 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | JimBob: start or install launches the live environment | 23:25 |
| skeet | brb | 23:25 |
| skeet | the emerald thing is done | 23:25 |
| bjwebb | hm any good linux media player that does music and videos? | 23:25 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | fromthat live environment you can run the installer (big icon on the desktop, you can't miss it) | 23:25 |
| JimBob | aaah, I got kinda worried since i only wanted to take a first look at it - thanks | 23:25 |
| sub[t]rnl | bjwebb: i like mplayer | 23:26 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | well, you can try it out... hit alt-f2 and try compiz --replace | 23:26 |
| bjwebb | sub[t]rnl: hmm, | 23:27 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | bjwebb: the difference is linux's philosophy - do one thing and do it well | 23:27 |
| bjwebb | i would like one with a gui :D | 23:27 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | amarok for music | 23:27 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | kaffeine for video | 23:27 |
| bjwebb | Daisuke_Laptop: but some people want both | 23:27 |
| nhe | I can't get kaffeine to play lots of videos... VLC does it :\ | 23:27 |
| Angelus | why when i go to System Settings > Advanced > Windows Applications , its continously telling me that i don't have wine installed? and i have wine installed | 23:27 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | bjwebb: then you're not going to find a good one | 23:27 |
| bjwebb | why hasn't anybody forked amarok yet to stick video in it | 23:27 |
| sub[t]rnl | bjwebb: mplayer has a gui | 23:27 |
| bjwebb | isn't it mostly cli? | 23:27 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | because amarok is a music player. to add video would involve a complete rewrite and that's kinda pointless | 23:28 |
| bjwebb | Daisuke_Laptop: would it involve a complete rewrite? | 23:28 |
| ardchoille | Daisuke_Laptop: system:/media/hdc/ does have a Ogg Vorbis folder in it, tho | 23:28 |
| bjwebb | im actually trying to prove to someone that itunes is not the beall and endall for music | 23:28 |
| sub[t]rnl | yeah, but thats true for 99 percent of all gui apps, they just run cli programs and stick something shiny on it | 23:28 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | actually, i'm not sure, but i am sure that adding video would be non-trivial | 23:28 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | ardchoille: that's what you're looking for :D | 23:28 |
| ardchoille | Daisuke_Laptop: Nice :) | 23:28 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | bjwebb: then show them amarok | 23:29 |
| ardchoille | Daisuke_Laptop: Thanks for the info | 23:29 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | amarok > itunes | 23:29 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | ardchoille: you're welcome | 23:29 |
| account_ | alexllad | 23:29 |
| bjwebb | no thats crap it doesn't do video and it has nothing like coverflow.... | 23:29 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | bjwebb: you're NOT LISTENING. | 23:29 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | you're not going to get that on linux unless you go write it yourself | 23:29 |
| bjwebb | i know | 23:29 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | most apps are designed to do one thing and do it well. | 23:30 |
| bjwebb | its just annoying | 23:30 |
| bjwebb | yeah, but music + music videos? | 23:30 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | in amarok's case, it's music management | 23:30 |
| bjwebb | ya | 23:30 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | and it does it extremely well | 23:30 |
| bjwebb | Daisuke_Laptop: they are actually working on a coverflow like thing | 23:30 |
| Angelus | stop critisising amarok, amarok is the best media player i ever saw bjwebb | 23:30 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | that's lovely | 23:30 |
| Angelus | :p | 23:30 |
| nhe | should I change to vesa the driver in xorg.conf ? | 23:30 |
| nhe | [I'm not sure if its there] | 23:30 |
| bjwebb | Angelus: it is | 23:31 |
| bjwebb | i just want an itunes killer to show the world | 23:31 |
| sub[t]rnl | nhe: your the one with the intel card? | 23:31 |
| Angelus | so | 23:31 |
| sub[t]rnl | nhe: lspci |grep VGA | 23:31 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | bjwebb: itunes didn't always do video either | 23:31 |
| nhe | 4002 laptop | 23:31 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | amarok IS your itunes killer | 23:31 |
| nhe | card is | 23:31 |
| nhe | ati 9700 mobily | 23:31 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | if they want video, use another program. | 23:31 |
| nhe | mobility | 23:31 |
| Angelus | somebody knows why when i got to System Settings > Advanced > Windows Applications its continously telling me that i don't have wine installed??????????? | 23:31 |
| Angelus | do i need to format my computer because of this? | 23:31 |
| nhe | (I'm the one from the black screen) | 23:31 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | because you don't have wine installed? | 23:31 |
| Angelus | or there's wy to fix it? | 23:31 |
| Angelus | Daisuke_Laptop: i have it installed | 23:32 |
| bjwebb | Daisuke_Laptop: nah but it does now | 23:32 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | sudo apt-get install wine | 23:32 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | bjwebb: so? | 23:32 |
| Angelus | i have it install Daisuke_Ido | 23:32 |
| Angelus | * Daisuke_Laptop | 23:32 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | try installing it again. | 23:32 |
| Angelus | i tried | 23:32 |
| Angelus | i did it million times | 23:32 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | that's a bit of an exaggeration | 23:32 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | but okay | 23:32 |
| Angelus | what is the package "Windows Applications" called? | 23:33 |
| Angelus | maybe i'll try to re-install that | 23:33 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | okay, i'll be back shortly, i need a smoke, my head is going to burst :) | 23:33 |
| Angelus | man help me first, i'll send you some good weed | 23:33 |
| Angelus | LoL | 23:33 |
| BluesKaj | wine, Angelus | 23:34 |
| Angelus | ? | 23:34 |
| Angelus | BluesKaj: im talking about Windows Applications manager | 23:34 |
| Angelus | the kubuntu one | 23:34 |
| BluesKaj | for running windows apps on linux | 23:34 |
| Angelus | System Settings > Advaced > Windows Applications | 23:34 |
| Angelus | that one | 23:34 |
| Angelus | :/ | 23:34 |
| BluesKaj | yup, wine | 23:35 |
| Angelus | :/ | 23:35 |
| drackspat | quick question, I have emerald theme manager up and running, I just don't know how to apply them | 23:35 |
| Angelus | BluesKaj: that option is available even if you don't have wine installed | 23:35 |
| bjwebb | Daisuke_Laptop: okay here's a good question | 23:35 |
| BluesKaj | I prefer to install wine with apt , that option is buggy for me | 23:35 |
| drackspat | Or emerald themer I mean | 23:35 |
| bjwebb | is there any linux app for video _management_ | 23:36 |
| === ihsane is now known as ihsane_ | ||
| BluesKaj | define video management bjwebb | 23:36 |
| bjwebb | like amarok does for music | 23:36 |
| nhe | sub[t]rnl: sorry I didn't get your answer | 23:37 |
| nhe | I have an 9700 mobility, from ait | 23:37 |
| nhe | ati | 23:37 |
| BluesKaj | a player like kaffeine , mplayer etc ? | 23:37 |
| sub[t]rnl | nhe: you need the fglrx driver | 23:37 |
| nhe | should I change to vesa the driver in xorg.cong? | 23:37 |
| nhe | hum... ok I'll install it | 23:38 |
| nhe | rebooting now | 23:38 |
| bjwebb | BluesKaj: one that would allow you to manage a library of videos | 23:38 |
| nhe | thanks for the help | 23:38 |

| BluesKaj | bjwebb, dunno , I just store 'em in a folder and choose one when I launch kaffeine | 23:41 |
| bjwebb | hmmm | 23:41 |
| BluesKaj | simple enuff IMO :) | 23:42 |
| bjwebb | im stuck then | 23:42 |
| bjwebb | my mate can say linux is crap | 23:42 |
| cooler | I googled around but couldnt find anything | 23:43 |
| cooler | I am relatively new to linux (tried ubuntu and now running kubuntu) and I have pretty big problem with Firefox - when I want to download ANY extension, I click on install now button (addons.mozilla.org) but nothing happens | 23:43 |
| cooler | I googled around but couldnt find anything | 23:43 |
| cooler | can anybody help | 23:43 |
| BluesKaj | really , what exactly do you need to do ... you can make aplaylist in VLC if that's what you're looking for but organizing videos like mp3 is a bit of over kill | 23:44 |
| cooler | did anybody have similar problem? | 23:44 |
| bjwebb | cooler: have you used firefox before? | 23:44 |
| cooler | yes | 23:44 |
| bjwebb | okay, i dunno then | 23:44 |
| BluesKaj | bjwebb, try VLC , it may meet yer needs | 23:45 |
| bjwebb | hmmm | 23:45 |
| cooler | once it did work but after a minut or so - but just once | 23:45 |
| bjwebb | BluesKaj: basically i want to show there is an alternative to itunes | 23:45 |
| bjwebb | but ive never actually used it | 23:46 |
| cooler | so I really don't know what to do... | 23:46 |
| bjwebb | cooler: are you familiar with irc? | 23:46 |
| BluesKaj | hmmm ... search for yourself , google works in linux too | 23:46 |
| bjwebb | because you could try #firefox | 23:46 |
| bjwebb | BluesKaj: i know, there are copies for music but not video | 23:46 |
| cooler | used it before - why? | 23:47 |
| bjwebb | cooler: they might know in #firefox | 23:47 |
| bjwebb | and also there is #firefox on irc.mozilla.org | 23:47 |
| cooler | thx | 23:47 |
| cooler | I'll try there :) | 23:47 |

| sub[t]rnl | !audio | 23:58 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 23:58 |
| JimBob | subtrnl: and when (where) would I type that? ;) | 23:59 |
| sub[t]rnl | mount a driver, ifconfig your interface device, and type it | 23:59 |
