There are gui front-ends that can help you enable it, but a firewall on a default install really isn't needed [00:35] eagles0513875: it's not a port-forwarding issue.

[00:45] i cant seem to find what format to format the drive [00:45] ardchoille: that'd be ALT + left click [00:45] virtual* [00:45] underdog5004: oh, right [00:46] anton__: Which virtual keyboard [00:46] anton__: you can close it and , you need to go to session manager and tell it to open a clean session every boot [00:46] basically, what format does the disk need to be in to install kubuntu? [00:46] http://pastebin.com/m2e07c23b [00:46] Dry_Ice: ext3, usually [00:46] Dry_Ice: ext3 [00:46] Dry_Ice: What are you using ot format it?

[00:48] hi there, wonder if anyone could help me out, i lost sound in kubuntu, when i restart the laptop, it seems working, is there anyway i could fix this problem without restarting? [00:49] !sound [00:49] 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 [00:49] BigPick: on my server (box that I'm having problems with), iptables.

One other nice thing about linux is that if things break there is always a way to find out what went wrong and fix it === frank__ is now known as tallith [00:54] Dry_Ice: in linux, it would be sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda1 , where hda1 will be your root drive [00:54] Dry_Ice: You can just leave them blank Kubuntu can format them on install [00:54] root partition, anyway [00:54] ok... [00:54] Kubuntu formats on install? [00:54] great! [00:54] thanks DaSkreech :D [00:54] Dry_Ice: if you need it to :) [00:54] DaSkreech: Yeah. And that's nice, really. I would prefer it wouldn't break, though. [00:54] so basically...you have the cd [00:54] anton__: true. [00:54] you run it? [00:54] and it does everything?

[00:56] underdog5004: I'm not seeing MASQUERADE of POSTROUTING [00:56] i'm a Linux n00b... [00:56] if you can't tell :P [00:56] BigPick: not quite sure what that means...

What can I do? [01:15] underdog5004: then u need to allow an exception for those ip addresses in ur routers firewall [01:16] eagles0513875: no, I don't, because they're on the same LAN, so the firewall doesn't see any of that traffice.

[01:19] nvm, I fixed the problem. It was moblock blocking the ping replies. I just did sudo moblock-control stop and now I can ping! thanks for your help BigPick and eagles0513875 [01:19] underdog5004: no problem [01:19] im out for the night guys [01:20] underdog5004: Awesome, I had a funny feeling ICMP packets were being filtered. [01:20] hmm, gOS has been released: http://www.thinkgos.com/downloads.html [01:20] ok i ran those commands and still getting errors [01:20] Question: Is there any way to bind my mouse buttons (I have a M$ Habu)? I want to bind the two thumb buttons to work as forward and back. [01:20] im thinking that Kamerheimer might be having some dependency issues, because he's not getting any of those programs to install === sam64 is now known as Goop2 [01:21] underdog5004: Usually when you are able resolve DNS addresses but unable to ping, ICMP filtering or similar is ocurring. === sam64 is now known as Goop2 [01:22] sounds reasonable [01:23] is it normal to have trouble using ALSA with multiple programs at one time? === tallith is now known as frankb [01:24] underdog5004: I apologize for my confusing NAT response, I was under the impression that your setup was WAN->router->server->desktop === frankb is now known as bolla === bolla is now known as franki [01:24] no biggie [01:25] irc leaves much to be desired in way of communication, that's for sure! [01:25] * underdog5004 wants an MSPAINT style canvas for irc... [01:25] irc is also from the 80's [01:26] there are ctcp protocols that do things like voip and graphics and stuff.. [01:26] that run on irc.. [01:26] but there non-standard [01:26] yeah...I just like to bitchnmoan about stuff, not try to fix them, :) [01:27] rgr... Its fun so the disgruntled looks on the developers faces :-P [01:27] (fun to see) === SudoKing is now known as Sudo|Wine === Sudo|Wine is now known as SudoKing [01:34] * BigPick has a disgruntled look on his face. [01:34] Goop2: turn on full duplex.. [01:44] irc is just multi-player notepad [01:45] did you steal that from bash? [01:45] lol [01:46] yep === kde-devel is now known as sonic [01:49] why does kubuntu use more ram than debian with kde? [01:50] naw it's probably about the same.. there both running the same thing really.. [01:50] debian-is-me: Are you taking into account bufferes/cached ? [01:50] Most people fail to do that [01:51] Ok, kubuntu is using more ram. Debian uses less. I don't think so. And kubuntu is slower too boot. [01:51] I don't think so about the buffer cache thing [01:52] That is likely due to some of the included packages such as NetworkManager. [01:52] I'm running knetworkmanager [01:52] on debian [01:53] yeah.. there are a couple of extras.. strigi maybe.. its a hoe bag of a program.. [01:53] so debian is better than kubuntu? [01:53] Strigi is the other thing that immediatley comes to mind. [01:53] I wouldn't say so. [01:53] well there not exactly the same.. [01:54] kubuntu default desktop comes with more stuff.. it thats a problem.. then maybe its not as good as debian.. I used debian for a long time here.. I still like it.. [01:54] If your only concern is memory usage and bootup time, then there is a difference. [01:54] but debian uses less ram, and uses lower boot time, and have a funnier installer [01:54] hey, running compiz fusion on kubuntu gutsy. Open office doesnt have window decorations. how do i get this? [01:54] how do I get compiz fusion to my debian-box? [01:55] !compiz [01:55] 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 [01:55] thats why compiz is beta.. it does weird stuff with open-office.. [01:55] debian-is-me: probably best to download it and compile.. [01:56] I hate the compilator [01:56] it always complains about errors in line 72 [01:56] thats why we all use ubuntu.. [01:56] debian stable is very stale [01:57] good for servers but not reallty all that good for desktops.. could try debian sid (unstable) to get the newer stuff.. [01:57] I would not recommend doing a custom compile. There is likely a very simple answer to this problem. [01:57] use kubuntu :-P [01:58] Can I apt-get install kubuntu? [01:58] debian-is-me: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [01:58] That will get you the kde desktop for kubuntu [01:58] But I have debian [01:59] (hes on debian.. note nick) [01:59] ah, ok [01:59] If I believed all the nicks I see, then there have been dieties and movie starts in here, lol [02:00] ubotu: do you still use the feisty repos for the themes? [02:00] !bot [02:00] I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [02:02] Has anyone else experienced not monitor going into suspend/no signal mode when booting off install cd. then after a few minutes yo are at the desktop [02:02] they should fix adept from crashing randomly or just get rid of it [02:03] scratch that not [02:05] what are people getting for sata performance in gutsy? [02:05] I have a 7200 rpm drive and my hdparm is only about 44 mb/s [02:05] should it be higher? [02:08] wilson: synaptic is a way better frontend for apt than adept, that's for sure! [02:09] I loves me my aptitude :) [02:10] ugh, dist-upgrade failed on linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic [02:11] says that it failed to create initrd image [02:11] any suggestions on how to start fixing this? [02:14] stepz_: start but trying to manually reconfigure the image package. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic" [02:14] linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic is broken or not fully installed [02:15] stepz_: If its complains that no such package is installed then try "sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic" [02:15] BigPick: does he have to clean it or whatever? [02:16] Possibly, but an inclomplete install can be resumed. [02:16] Hello everyone. Does anyone know about converting mdf files? Though it's a CD image, K3B doesn't recognize it. And the program mdf2iso doesn't recognize it, either. Any ideas? [02:16] If a resume or a reconfigure fails then a clean\purge would be the next logical step. [02:19] Ertain: Hmmm... an interesting problem. [02:19] Ertain: there's a program called 'iat' that has worked better for me [02:19] it broke in the configuration phase, if I remove the new kernel version for now, should it be possible to resume configuration of the rest of the stuff [02:21] stepz_: Not recommended. Could you pastebin the output for me? [02:21] !paste [02:21] pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [02:21] the output of what? [02:21] stepz_: Whatever messages are returned from the configuration phase. [02:23] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43069/ [02:23] that is after the GUI process froze on me [02:26] stepz_: Allrighty can you pastebin the output of the command "sudo apt-get install linux-generic" for me? [02:28] I already managed to uninstall them, but here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43070/ [02:29] I may have a clue where the problem may be, I now remembered that I'm running on encrypted root, and to get that working I had to do some modification to some initrd scripts [02:31] stepz_: Yeah, initramfs is complaining of an invalid option. [02:32] stepz_: Can you remember what files you had to modify? [02:32] I'm not sure how those modifications could end up passing mkinitramfs that invalid option, but I'll review my changes [02:32] i know all the warnings but does anyone know where they disabled root login in gutsy not kdmrc is set that [02:33] jtt: when you diable the root account, doesn't that automatically disable logins? [02:33] I think I used this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystem [02:33] Does anyone here know how to edit sudo (visudo) to extend time period? [02:34] donsdw: search the wiki for "timestamp_timout" [02:35] let me rephrase i cant login as root at the kde login screen i use to set this up in kdmrc that no longer works [02:36] jtt: I don't think you're going to get any help inhere about logging in as root. [02:36] ardchoille: Thanks, but what wiki? Where is it? What is it's name? linuxwiki? [02:36] !wiki [02:36] http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu development documentation wiki. If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation. [02:37] What's the easiest way to back up the entire system? [02:37] ardchoille: I think I found it. The one ubotu said? [02:37] hey i need help [02:37] !wiki [02:37] http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu development documentation wiki. If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation. [02:37] donsdw: yeah, wiki.ubuntu.com [02:37] ardchoille: Thanks again. [02:37] stepz_: Alright, this is definately the cause of the problem. Could you try running "sudo update-initramfs -u ALL" for me? [02:37] tekstacy: I use PartImage to do that: http://www.sysresccd.org [02:38] donsdw: yw [02:38] i need help setting up my microphone [02:39] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43071/ [02:39] i dont know to find my new sound card [02:39] halohunter: Do you know what type of soundcard you have? [02:39] ardchoille, cool, thanks. [02:39] that looks like a handy disk to have around === bryan is now known as vafada [02:40] i dont know the command to look at your devices on your cpu [02:40] tekstacy: The thing with PartImage is the partition you are backing up must be unmounted, so you can't use PartImage in kubuntu to back up kubuntu. However, that url I gave you has a very nice livecd that has partimage and tons of other admins apps. [02:40] tekstacy: It is, I carry it with my Kubuntu livecd's [02:41] hi. in dolphin.. how to enable the 'delete' command in the context menu? [02:41] yeah, whny is that hidden. And why does the trash can link not work [02:42] lol [02:42] dolphin is not quite ready for prime time [02:42] what is the command to look at the devices on your board [02:42] stepz_: Okay... lets see here, after looking at that how-to you posted I might have some ideas... [02:42] tekstacy: I have an 80Gb partition with my "/" on it, but "/" takes up about 6Gb, PartImage will only copy the used bit (6Gb) and compress it down to a 900Mg tarball.. it takes me about 10 minutes to backup my entire system. [02:42] halohunter: lspci [02:42] thanks [02:43] source code shows that it can be enable by setting ShowDeleteCommand to true.. but i have no idea where to set this setting [02:43] rgreening: what do you ean the trash can link doesn't work? [02:43] Jucato: i can haz help? [02:43] In dolphin. YOu cant drag/drop files into the can cause it's a bookmark [02:43] and Dolphin is quite ready "for primetime"... the Dolphin in Kubuntu isn't Dolphin [02:43] quite counter intuitive [02:43] i can't figure out how to file this documentation bug [02:44] rich isn't around [02:44] Jucato: huh? then what is dolphin in Kubuntu? [02:44] vafada: D3lphin [02:44] i need a good mac dock for kubuntu [02:44] D3lphin then... 0.9.2 for KDE 3.5 isnt ready... but Dolphin is KDE 4 and KDE 4 isnt ready.. catch 22 [02:44] k5ubuntu: kooldock, it's in the repos [02:44] :> [02:44] Jucato: yeah make sense since the config fiile is d3lphinrc [02:44] repos? [02:44] i found it it is called Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI [02:45] ardchoille: whats repos [02:45] !repos | k5ubuntu [02:45] k5ubuntu: The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu [02:45] rgreening: It's a bookmark. of course dragging and dropping to it won't work. I doubt that other people would have thought of doing that [02:45] k5ubuntu: I remember someone giving you info about the repos not too long ago [02:45] Hmmm... I think it make sense.. It's a trash can. lol [02:46] Why even have the bookmark there.... [02:46] pointless [02:46] :) [02:46] hi posingaspopular... I'm not good w/ documentation... have you tried #ubuntu-docs ? [02:46] of course. all i need help with is LP [02:46] posingaspopular: what bug are you trying to file? [02:46] rgreening: for you. for everyone else, it isn't. it's a bookmark! [02:46] it's a link to a location [02:46] how can i terminate another program causing my konsole to lock [02:46] whats the code [02:46] And everyone needs a bookmark to their trash.. do you often dig through your trash :) [02:46] k5ubuntu: Ctrl+C [02:47] KDE help center->applet manuals doesn't actually do anything [02:47] lol [02:47] so no way to put delete in context menu? [02:47] rgreening: yes. and some users do. otherwise, why would there be a need for the Trash anyway? [02:47] doesnt work [02:47] BigPick: I'd be glad to hear your ideas, because a cursory review of this stuff doesn't reveal to me who or why would pass that option to mkinitramfs [02:47] vafada: hold on === tony__ is now known as bonybrown === Daskreech2 is now known as DaSkreech [02:47] k5ubuntu: try ctrl-D ? [02:47] posingaspopular: Maybe that documentation hasn't been written yet? [02:48] stepz_: Right, okay, sorry just checking some things. Well we have several options. [02:48] Jucato: meh.. I guess Im not going to win the intuitive vs counterintuitive argument with you. Best I beat my head against a wall. :P [02:48] Jucato: here's the code: kdeConfig.readEntry("ShowDeleteCommand", false);.. i just have no idea where to put that ShowDeleteCommand [02:48] well why would it be in gutsy if the documentation isn't up yet [02:49] rgreening: just because you don't do A or A isn't intuitive for you, doesn't mean it's the case for everybody else [02:49] posingaspopular: Because documentation is one of the last things on the "To Do" list of almost ever developer [02:49] vafada: I don't think there's a GUI option for it in D3lphin right now [02:49] it's it's blank because they want some help with it, they shou [02:49] sigh. [02:49] nvm [02:49] Jucato: yeah.. oh well thanks anyways [02:50] posingaspopular: You could always join the ubuntu-docs team and fill it up :) [02:50] stepz_: Since dapper cryptsetup has become the prefered method for setting the kernel up to handle encrypted filesystems. [02:51] iam on the docs team [02:51] Jucato: Sorry, I guess I am used to things a bit differently since I have been building and designing Linux apps and systems since 1993... [02:51] but i need help bring it to their attention and no one was talking in the -doc chan [02:51] i guess they are talking now [02:51] thanks ardchoille [02:51] posingaspopular: I'm in the process of joining the docs team myself. [02:51] stepz_: but I am unsure of how safe it would be to try to switch your installation over to the cryptsetup scripts. [02:52] rgreening: that's perfectly understandable. but please don't presume that just because you don't go into Trash, nobody else does. :) [02:52] goodnight all. thanks for the help [02:52] otherwise, we wouldn't have a Trash location at alll [02:52] anyway... lunch [02:52] Jucato, do you have any experience with encrypted filesystem setups? [02:52] Jucato: you missed my point entirely [02:52] Jucato: Did you bring enough lunch for everyone? [02:52] * ardchoille hides [02:52] And everyone needs a bookmark to their trash.. do you often dig through your trash :) [02:52] * tekstacy tips hat, lights cigar and walks away.... [02:52] that was my point [02:52] BigPick: sorry, nope [02:53] Jucato: my point was you should be able to drag/drop onto it and right-click/empty it, because of the way it appears and what it represents. [02:53] I don't think I've ever used the trash. [02:53] Jucato: having a bookmark is like having a trashcan with no bottom [02:53] does only half the job [02:53] :) [02:54] Thanks Jucato. Well, looks like we are on our own stepz_ :P [02:54] could another option be, that some of the required stuff is in half upgraded state_ [02:54] ? [02:55] stepz_: Yes that is true, but the other stuff is in a half upgraded state because it depends on the successful configuration of the image package. [02:56] ok, another, easier, option is to pump my home dir to an external hdd and reinstall [02:57] stepz_: One more thing we can try before we edit the scripts though. Could you try "update-initramfs -u -k all" for me? [02:57] I was going to change hdd's anyway [02:58] stepz_: Thats not easier, thats just giving up. Come on man, we can fix this! [02:59] !compiz [02:59] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness.

Is it any different? [03:00] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43073/ [03:00] nothing caught my eye [03:00] has anyone here tried vector linux? [03:02] stepz_: Well that is rather interesting. [03:02] stepz_: Could your run "sudo dpkg --configure all" for me please? [03:03] anyone know of a package that might help me learn german? [03:03] you mean sudo dpkg --configure -a? [03:03] stepz_: LMAO yeah, sorry I'm too tired. [03:04] exactly the same as the last time [03:04] dangit... [03:05] stepz_: Okay which kernel images do you still have completely installed currently? [03:05] anyone know of a package that might help me learn german? [03:05] how do I check?

[03:10] hello............ [03:12] stepz_: We are first going to try to clean up some of these older kernel images. [03:13] stepz_: So try "sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-2.6.20-8-generic linux-image-2.6.20-9-generic linux-image-2.6.20-13-generic" [03:15] ok, and then?

There will be alot of output. === zach_ is now known as MagicCow [03:20] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43076/ [03:21] is there a simple way to look at what that postinst script is trying to do_ [03:21] ? [03:22] Erm... according to that output that just completed successfully? [03:22] yeah that completed successfully, as before [03:27] stepz_: I'm trying to think of a way to make dpkg more verbose. [03:27] There is a way I just can't remember... ack! [03:28] i dunno if ya'll remember me from last night, well i reinstalled kubuntu . ran memtest for 13 hours .. and and faults, started up kubuntu and everything is working!!! [03:28] must of somehow installed corrupted some how [03:29] wine installed, vid,nic,sound all good didn't need to touch anything :D [03:29] and and faults = and _NOT_ faults ;) [03:29] -T [03:30] stepz_: Ah, just got an idea... hang on.. [03:30] -D3773 [03:31] outputed lots of stuff [03:31] by which I found where the postinst script is [03:31] !installing steam [03:31] !steam [03:31] Steam can be found at: http://www.steampowered.com/ [03:31] .... noo ! :/ [03:31] my $ret = system("$ramdisk " .

I just remembered a change that was make to the initramfs-tools that would effect how you setup your cryptography. [03:33] stepz_: remove the line "ramdisk = /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs" from /etc/kernel-img.conf [03:34] \o/ [03:35] Did it work? [03:35] seems so [03:35] AHAHAHH!!!! [03:35] * BigPick dances around room. [03:35] great success! [03:35] Boy that was a noggin scratcher. [03:35] How do you start compiz? [03:35] in hindsight seems obvious [03:36] I've followed the install instructions, but nothing seems to happen. [03:36] hindsight 20/20 :P [03:36] anyway, how do I resume the rest of the upgrade? [03:36] I realized "-c" is an option passed to update-initramfs, which is now the default setup utility. [03:37] I was inches away from deducing that myself when I saw a comment that said update-initramfs is called differently from mkinitrd [03:37] MagicCow: run "sudo compiz-start" [03:38] stepz_: I am very interested in setting up an encrypted filesystem on this laptop myself.

[03:39] stepz_: But I have been heretofore too timid to attempt it LMAO. [03:40] Command not found. [03:40] BigPick: I had to change a script in that howto to wait for the hdd module to get loaded before doing cryptsetup [03:40] I had to choose between either attempting to do it or using Windows [03:40] Hello! Can amarok record mp3 streamed from online radios? [03:40] managed to weasel my way out of getting cryptsetup working with smartcards [03:41] anyway, encrypted filesystem is pretty much a must have for work laptops, I'm amazed that the installer doesn't support them yet [03:41] MagicCow: oops, sorry I guess its just "sudo compiz" now.

[03:44] from the desktop whats cmd to navigate to wine c:/ ?? [03:44] stepz_: Is you entire filesystem encrypted? Or do you have to have something like the /boot partition unecrypted. [03:44] you need to have /boot unencrypted [03:44] otherwise there isn't any code to do the unencryption [03:44] stepz_: Yeah, that makes sense :P [03:45] stepz_: Wait, yeah... how else could it...

[07:12] lol [07:12] ati seem to have better designed gpus, but yeah, the drivers [07:13] << tuxmaster1988: as for you - ati's releasing all of their reference specs to the open source community. by this time next year, if not earlier, the drivers for ati cards in linux will wipe the floor with nvidia (and that really hurts to say, i've been an nvidia fan since the gf2 line) [07:13] noooooooo NEVER [07:14] Daisuke_Ido: sorry,i am new to irc.now i get it.

[07:51] how do i make my icons bigger [07:51] x4245: what exactly is the error you're getting? [07:52] waylandbill: i have write permissions on the share, when i open the share, it asks for password, i give it and it allows me connection, i can download anything from the share into me hdd, but whenever i create a new folder or copy a file into the share, konqueror tells me that it cant create it. but i can do it fine under a vm. [07:53] i have a xp based vm installed, with it i can create any folder into share [07:53] dang vm is to scary for me :[ [07:54] there are many packages in the repos for smb [07:54] hi [07:55] is there anyone that can upload files perfectly [07:55] so nobody can help me with making my icons bigger [07:55] x4245: i have yet to try my friend has a windows ftp server [07:55] i could try right now [07:56] i have absolutely no sound in gutsy - using an intel 82801H (ICH8 Family) sound controller.... [07:56] i already activated the backports and install linux-backports-modules - but still no effort [07:56] x4245: his server is down am i have no way of trying anything [07:56] eagles0513875: all right [07:57] eagles0513875: can u recommend any package from ubuntu repos for me , or from anywhere else? [07:57] x4245: is this ur own personal windows server [07:57] yea [07:58] x4245: the only thing i can think of is using samba [07:58] !samba [07:58] samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT [07:58] /part [07:59] x4245:wait [07:59] eagles0513875: as a client? [07:59] x4245: u want read write access on a windows machine right [07:59] eagles0513875: i aleady have write access, i just cant write into it using konqueror [08:00] eagles0513875: also tried smb4k, it didnt work either [08:00] x4245: on ur linux box can u see ur windows partition [08:00] x4245: can u see the partition u wanna copy stuff 2 [08:00] eagles0513875: yes [08:00] !ntfs3g [08:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [08:00] u need to download ntfs3g [08:01] eagles0513875: the server ison a different pc [08:01] eagles0513875: not my own [08:01] x4245: u cant use ntfs3g for different computers [08:01] hi, i have a lock and web browser button on my notebook and i cant make it work : \ [08:02] eagles0513875: i know, thats why i m asking how can i upload files into my server share, as konqueror does not create folders or copy files into the share [08:02] but the strange thing is that the mapping is properly set up [08:02] can anyone tell me what I need to do to get wireless working on a Acer Aspire 5670? Searching the forums gives me varied results and I haven't even confirmed the chipset yet [08:02] raylu: what kinda card [08:02] x4245, is your "server share" ftp or nfs or...what? [08:02] eagles0513875, that's what I'm wondering :( [08:02] raylu: smb, i.e, windows share [08:03] raylu: ur running linux on there right [08:03] yes [08:03] ryanakca: [08:03] x4245, is the samba host a linux or win box? [08:03] raylu: win box [08:03] raylu: the open up the command line [08:03] raylu: it is using windows's own sharing, i donot have a samba server instaled on it. [08:04] x4245, i'm guessing you have the share mounted and you're accessing it in konq? [08:04] eagles0513875, yes? [08:04] raylu: then type in lspci it should bring a list of all ur devices and somewhere in there should be ur wifi [08:04] hi [08:04] raylu: i dont have it mounted per se, i just point konqueror to goto smb://my_machine/ [08:05] raylu: it can access the share that way. [08:05] oh. is this gusty? [08:05] eagles0513875, ah, right; thanks [08:06] i have successfully mapped my web button keycode to XF86WWW but it never opens a browser window, is there any way to fix it? [08:06] intel pro/wireless 3945/abg [08:06] im using aMSN and all my contacts text's are blurry / unreadable, how to fix? === lander is now known as lg188 [08:06] x4245, the feisty ioslave for smb was kinda messed up; is mounting it an option? [08:07] raylu: ill check [08:07] er... [08:07] what? [08:07] hello evrybody [08:07] raylu: both 3965 and 4965 intel wireless works perfectly on my notebooks [08:07] =\ by "an option," i mean will you do it? [08:07] socketbind, it doesn't even detect it as a device [08:07] raylu: it doesnt need any configuration just works for me [08:07] raylu: sry bout that my java ide hung on me what was the last thing u said [08:08] raylu, is this a clean gutsy install? [08:08] eagles0513875, ah, right; thanks [08:08] socketbind, still livecd, actually [08:08] raylu: what kinda card is urs out of curiosity [08:08] raylu, well thats all i can say, it is strange because i have a notebook with 4965 and an other one with 3965 and it works perfectly with gutsy [08:08] 3945/abg [08:09] raylu: and once u get it installed a dialogue should pop up allowing u to enable any restricted drivers [08:09] tahts what it did for me and i got my wifi and open gl working out of the box just about [08:09] nope, iwlwifi is not a restricted driver [08:09] and it wont cause the restricted driver manager to pop up [08:09] thanks guys [08:10] it worked now, looks like i didnt have smbfs installed [08:10] i installed it and now konqueror works fine. [08:10] o.0 [08:10] x4245: what u have to do to fix it [08:10] iwlwifi? [08:10] raylu: u didnt get a box allowing u to enable restricted drivers [08:10] didnt know that smbfs was needed for file uploading [08:11] raylu: yeah thats the new wifi driver for these wifi cards with intel chipset, specifically 3965 and 4965 [08:11] eagles0513875, haven't installed it yet; i want to make sure wireless works [08:11] socketbind, er...what's the package name? [08:11] raylu: i think the only way thats goign to happen is if u try [08:11] eagles0513875, er...no [08:11] raylu, it is part of the kernel [08:11] waltzing is a 3 days away sombody knows a reason for it ? [08:11] shipped by default [08:11] raylu: lol wait im an idiot forgot u can try live cd [08:12] lg188: ? [08:12] check your dmesg [08:12] mine reads as: [08:12] [ 35.264000] iwl4965: Detected Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN [08:12] alot of the intel stuff works out of the box [08:12] mine on the other hand lol [08:12] yeah, and so should work raylu's work too [08:13] ahhhahhaha. [08:13] dmesg | grep wire said that [08:13] the radio kill switch was on =\ [08:13] "Kill switch must be off for wireless to work" [08:13] so...i turned the wireless switch on...and...yeah...I feel like a moron now [08:13] yeah, and do you have a hardware wireless switch? [08:13] : ))) [08:14] ahem well glad it turned out well [08:14] haha [08:14] ^^ [08:15] now can anybody answer why kmilo doesn't handle the XF86WWW altogether? [08:15] i got my web button mapped to XF86WWW and it doesnt open even a darned web browser window :\ [08:15] xev says that it is recognized as XF86WWW [08:15] eagles0513875 he is for 3 days nothing to say that i know sow.... [08:16] judging my kmilo source it gets handled by the generic plugin but why it doesnt work at all? [08:17] i'm starting to lose my sanity with this thing [08:17] iirc, there is a khotkeys or something similar [08:18] can it be, that kubuntu changed something in my BIOS config? [08:18] that was definitely not the right window [08:18] volume controls are even better they set the bad channel [08:18] socketbind, change your master channel? [08:19] hey, anyone know a good streaming server for linux [08:19] changed, he insists that he must change the "Headphone" channel even after setting master to "Front" [08:20] what do you want to stream and through which protocol? [08:20] socketbind: udp if possible [08:20] socketbind: but tcp if nothing else [08:20] so...what do you want to stream? [08:20] socketbind: there are many, as i have only been using the streaming server that comes with windows servers [08:21] im not too experienced about that : \ do those thing use the mms protocol? [08:21] raylu: files, videos, though, its only for my LAN, so bandwidth is not an issue [08:21] o.0 streaming files [08:21] wat are jour comments for games ? [08:21] ah nope [08:22] when the gusty installer partitioner tells you it's going to resize a partition in guided mode [08:22] is that the size of the old one or of the new one? [08:22] dont you mean a upnp media server x4245? [08:22] like windows media connect is? [08:22] x4245, for video, i used lanovision, but it's a windows thing. then again, it was coded in python... [08:22] lg188: There are a few good games these days, but it's a little hard to find them [08:22] there's also vls, the vlc server [08:22] raylu: if its python it should work [08:22] here i dont seey why it shouldnt [08:22] Repsa_Jih and wich are they [08:23] i really need a dev machine [08:23] ok, ill check out lanovision [08:23] you can still code python to work only in windows, though i see no reason why that'd be [08:23] problem is that most of my network pc's use windows [08:23] that's not a problem :D well, if you use lanovision, that is [08:23] x4245, what was the name of the stuff you used on windows? [08:24] socketbind: its the windows media server, the one that comes with windows 2003 server [08:24] lg188: see private chat [08:24] i dont think that you need vls or darwin for that [08:24] Repsa_Jih kk [08:24] you need a upnp media server [08:24] socketbind: where can i get it? [08:24] there are multiple implementations and the free ones are pretty bad [08:24] when the gusty installer partitioner tells you it's going to resize a partition in guided mode [08:24] is that the size of the old one or of the new one? [08:25] there is gmediaserver for instance x4245 [08:25] raylu: i think its the old one [08:25] socketbind: ok, ill check it out. [08:25] but it didnt worked for me with windows media player 11 [08:25] could it be, that kubuntu changed something in my BIOS config? [08:26] matahari: i dont think so [08:26] i could hardly imagine that [08:26] socketbind: it's because my sound here workes out of the box [08:26] and why it would change the bios for that? [08:26] socketbind: is there a package for it? [08:26] linux has many nice drivers so many cards work out of the box [08:27] there should be [08:27] socketbind: then i used qemu and wanted to emulate a soundcard - and then sound stopped working. now i did a fresh install and sound still doesn't work... [08:27] well thats pretty bad : \ i dunno [08:27] x4245, personally i use twonkymedia because it worked with windows media player and with the htpc [08:27] how do i install new firefox? [08:27] 2.0.0.9 [08:27] but it costs money [08:28] but apart from that it works very good [08:28] i can access all my movies, pictures on my local net [08:28] socketbind: ok, about lanovision, its not for linux? [08:29] it seems so [08:30] socketbind: i found flumotion server on the buntu repos, is it good? [08:30] socketbind: coz it never worked for me before [08:30] how do i install new firefox? [08:31] 2.0.0.9 [08:31] AT0M1CB0MB3R, what's the latest version in the repos? [08:31] AT0M1CB0MB3R: use the repos [08:31] x4245, well i dont see what does it stream and through what [08:32] socketbind: its the only streaming server i could find on the repos [08:32] AT0M1CB0MB3R: just do this in the command line sudo apt-get install firefox [08:32] x4245, how do you want to access your media? for instance i use windows media player 11, yahoo music jukebox as the clients for music [08:32] socketbind: do you know somebody who can help me? [08:33] matahari: not really : \ but keep asking later maybe some experts arrive :) [08:33] :-) [08:33] thanks [08:33] x4245, and for movies tvedia or the htpc [08:33] help with what?

[08:55] AT0M1CB0MB3R: in the command line do sudo rm -rf .firefox [08:55] rm -rf ~/.mozilla [08:55] Q-collective: why do iget these msgs [08:55] Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy-updates/main/source/Sources.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch [08:55] Reading package lists... Done [08:55] E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [08:56] hmm [08:56] mirror down? [08:57] eagles0513875: you don't need sudo to rm your own files btw [08:57] Q-collective: dont u need that if they r locked [08:58] locked? you should have full permissions over them [09:02] Q-collective: lets say an app has them locked [09:02] and u wanna remove the config for the app that has them locked dont u need to sudo [09:03] i cant even do my homeowrk on linux [09:03] I don't know any applications that change permissions on config files [09:03] gosh i hate this [09:03] AT0M1CB0MB3R: so, what do you need to do? [09:03] no clue [09:03] and why not use an alternative browser, like konqueror? [09:03] it says i need internet explorer or netscape [09:04] bad site [09:04] but firefox used to work before [09:04] well, back to square one: what exactly is the problem? [09:05] no clue [09:05] i cant login [09:05] it says i dont meeet system requirements [09:05] on the specific website? [09:05] yeah [09:05] its my homework website [09:05] I see [09:06] what firefox version do you have currently installed? [09:06] 2.0.0.8 [09:06] from repos [09:07] i dont get it [09:07] what is the url to the website? [09:07] it used to work before [09:07] but now it doesnt [09:07] Q-collective: i cant tell you because you cant login and it only says i need to download netscape and that when i login and im not giving you my passwor [09:07] d [09:08] I want to see if I get the same error [09:08] if so, tsomething has changed serverside [09:08] and you need to complain to the server admin [09:08] Q-collective: i cant tell you the password or username [09:09] do you get the error *after* trying to login then? [09:09] yeah [09:09] ah [09:09] Hello... Does anybody know a good alternative to tvtme ...? [09:09] AT0M1CB0MB3R: well, there still is ie4linux... [09:09] but in konqueror it shows tha i dont have system requirments right away [09:09] hmm [09:09] url? :) [09:10] no [09:10] lol [09:10] sorry [09:10] gah === [Gunirus] is now known as Gunirus [09:10] but anyways [09:10] it works on firefox on my dads computer (win xp) [09:10] same version? [09:10] AT0M1CB0MB3R: anything will work on a windows xp comp [09:10] or at least just about [09:11] then why is there linux [09:11] he's talking about firefox [09:11] yes same version [09:11] strange [09:12] AT0M1CB0MB3R: well, I guess you should ask in #firefox then [09:13] !adeptfix [09:13] If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [09:14] tuxwulf: what exactly is tvtme? [09:15] im going to quit [09:15] im so tired [09:15] Q: I have a tv card in my pc, tvtime is a program that can show me tv with it [09:15] but i bet when i get in bed [09:15] i wont even be tire [09:15] d [09:16] but tvtime does nto seem to work very well [09:16] icewaterman: hi... can you remember me? 3 days ago... about GPRS and konqueror? [09:16] AT0M1CB0MB3R: so, I guess that leaves ie4linux for you then [09:16] what ie4linux [09:16] google it [09:17] or you could even try netscape (even though it is exactly the same engine as firefox's, lol) [09:17] tuxwulf: well, I'm not very familiar on tvcard territory, sorry [09:17] where does kde keep the rc for arts in kubuntu? [09:22] Q: is ok, thanks [09:24] Hi, my internet is acting weird for a few weeks now. I want to check all settings / diagnostic tools that are involved with internet / network, can someone help me? [09:25] Minnozz: that's a few broad question [09:25] few=very [09:26] Yes I know, but it's driving me crazy so I want to fix it for once and for all === michael_ is now known as Michael071 [09:29] Minnozz: First off you need to specify "Weird" [09:30] Connection dropping randomly? Long load times? network card glowing whenever the moon is blue? [09:30] thats weird [09:31] RurouniJones: Well, when my PC is on for a few hours (this varies a lot), everything turns very slow (pinging a server takes about 1 second, every try, opening a webpage takes 30 seconds, uploading downloading is very slow), and when I reboot, it is fast again [09:32] *uploading and downloading [09:32] Does the entire computer slow down? [09:33] i.e. windows move slowly, mouse pointer moves slowly etc. [09:33] No, that just stays quick [09:33] Minnoz, I have a acer with a shared memory graphics card that is doing the same the tech told me to keep the thing for parts :( [09:34] how do i make my icons bigger [09:36] jxxt: The thing is that my PC is only a year old, and I never had the problem before a clean install [09:36] So I'm pretty sure that there is a problem with the settings [09:37] Minnoz, Mine is two and a laptop.. I was told that acer are not good on reliable [09:37] what kind of internet connection do you have ? [09:37] does power cycling the modem/router fix the problem ? might not even be the pc that's the problem [09:38] wilson_: The internet connection is 4096 (down) / 256 (up) [09:38] oh, i see when u reboot its fixed, nevermind [09:38] so are you doing anything in particular when it stuff up ? [09:39] bittorrent ? [09:40] is this wirelessly ? [09:40] wilson_: KTorrent definatly seems to speed the 'slowdown' up, but after I shut it down it stays slow [09:40] No it is wired === anonymous_ is now known as sup3rw0p [09:41] hrm, what nic is on that thing ? [09:41] realtek ? intel ? [09:41] is there a way to avoid activating windows when clicking on them? there is the setting for not raising them but not for not activating [09:41] marvell ? [09:43] wilson_: The ASUS site says it's Marvell [09:44] once it's slowed down you can do stuff like checking netstat or iptraf to see if something is using the connection === kde-devel is now known as luca_b [09:44] you can see if taking the interface down with ifconfig and then bringing it back up again fixes it [09:44] i dunno, its weird [09:44] I tried that, that didn't work [09:44] might be a bug in the ethernet driver [09:45] Hmm [09:45] voicu: Not that I'm aware of. Enlightenment has that feature though. [09:45] is anything happening it /var/log/syslog when it happens ? [09:45] yeah, ok [09:46] voicu: You just want to focus the window without raising it? [09:47] no, i want to be able to click stuff without changing the focused window [09:48] Hmm... I don't know if that's even possible. Is there another WM that does that? [09:48] i don't know, i only tried gnome and xfce for a little [09:49] do widgets need to have their parent window active while doing actions? [09:49] if not, it would be an interesting option to have [09:49] I would imagine so. [09:50] You might check out Flux/Openbox, PekWM, Afterstep... There's at least a dozen WM's in the repos. Not sure if any have that feature though. [09:51] voicu: you're talking about Qt? [09:52] yeah, i think. i'm don't know how kde works internally, but it doesn't seem such a big problem not to activate windows and still be able to click controls in them [09:52] or maybe it is... [09:52] a parent have to be "active" as in initialized, but I don't think it needs to be visible, have not tested this [09:53] contrast83: ok, i'll try [09:53] rand_acs: so it has to have focus? [09:53] one reason for the parent is that the parent does cleanup after it's children [09:54] voicu: I wouldn't say this is conclusive, but I noticed when a window's not focused, the focus rectangle around its last clicked button goes away. [09:54] voicu: that's the thing, I don't think it has to have focus or be visible for that matter, but I can't think of a example now [09:55] wilson_: I checked that, but iirc there's nothing interesting there [09:55] ok then, maybe i'll ask on #kde or something [09:55] what do you want to do? [09:56] rand_acs: he wants to be able to click something in a window without focusing it. [09:56] yeah, so i can still work in another window [09:57] or it could be something like click->activate->pass click->change focus back [09:57] i see [09:57] voicu: I know this isn't the same thing, but have you tried sloppy focus? [09:57] but the parent thing doesn't help you there [09:57] you mean focus under mouse? [09:57] Right [09:57] you'll have to look into focus and mouse events [09:58] yeah, but usually i don't see the window i want to remain focused, that's why i need this option [09:58] btw, will this all be in one app? [09:59] rand_acs: i'm not trying to make an app that doesn't need focus. i want to be able to have that option in the kde enviroment [10:00] voicu: oh I see what you're getting at [10:00] ahhh good old rain, pouring down and our roof (light socket) has water coming through it... sounds healthy [10:00] On Kubuntu, how do "unpack" an RPM? [10:01] tuxwulf: you just want to see its contents, or install it? [10:01] tuxwulf: use alien [10:02] Contrast : Actually I just want to get 1 pic out of it to install as my background [10:02] can't Ark open RPM's? [10:02] Ark? [10:02] yeah, you can use ark [10:02] !broadcom [10:02] Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [10:03] assultcube can not run [10:03] Does anyone here has problem with kmix master channel in kmix?!! [10:03] tuxwulf: try right clicking it and extract or open it with ark [10:03] Hmm, maybe not. Ark's not listed as an app for RPM's in Konqueror's file associations. [10:03] gutsy [10:04] maverick: Ellaborate? [10:04] voicu/contrast > ark : "not a suported archive format" [10:04] contrast83: does ark open .debs? [10:05] It can, yeah. [10:05] he could use alien to make it a deb and then extract it [10:05] contrast83: i'm uding GUTSY i can't adjust the volume from the master slide bar...i can only adjust it from the PCM..which in turn doesn't allow me to use my laptop volume hotkeys [10:05] Convert it to a deb and then open with ark [10:05] A while ago I did see sth about rpms on debian [10:05] im having issues with frostwire [10:05] alien [10:05] can anyone help me it starts to load then quits [10:05] tuxwulf: alien -d blabla.rpm [10:05] vocu > That's the next step.. [10:05] maverick: Did you try changing the master channel? [10:05] how?!! [10:06] repsa_jih [10:06] my friend has a broadcom BCM4311... I'm reluctant to to enable the firmware if it might change/break his wireless card, so can someone help me understand exactly how this card works? [10:06] repsa_jih i played to long westnoth its a good game [10:06] contrast83 [10:06] level1__: i have a bcm4306 i enabled it and it works [10:06] !patience | maverick [10:06] maverick: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped. Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [10:06] contrast83: how ?! [10:07] Right-click KMix in the system tray -> Select Master Channel [10:07] eagles0513875: did you just creck the button in restricted-drivers-manager or did you have to do anything else? [10:07] contrast83: sorry, i disconnected and i thought u didn't recieve a reply... [10:07] I adept on gutsy, there isnt a pre-release updates option, what has it been renamed to? [10:08] level1__: when i first logged into gutsy a box popped up and asked me what restricted drivers i wanted to enable and i enabled them restarte my machine and they worked [10:08] tims: adept_manager [10:08] that also besides wifi included open gl for my ati card [10:08] contrast83: No Luck! [10:09] voicu: In the repositiories option box there isnt a tick box for pre-release updates, only unsupported and a few others like suggested, what has the pre-release option been renamed to [10:09] eagles0513875: okay, that sounds cool, if ubuntu intends to flash the firmware, I'm reluctant, but it sounds pretty simple. [10:09] maverick: what'd you change it to? try setting it to PCM [10:09] contrast83: i select the channel to be PCM and this makes the mute button work...but not the volume ones [10:09] I eant to make sure I dont accidentaly autoupgrade to the next release [10:09] level1__: i didnt have to flash anything [10:09] maverick: weird. not sure, sorry. :-\ [10:09] contrast83: thanks [10:09] What's wrong with knetworkmanager in 7.10? [10:10] It says I have no active network interface. [10:10] I opened a root konsole, did iwlist and iwconfig and dhclient to bring the interface up by hand. [10:10] That works fine, but knetworkmanager still says it doesn't exit. [10:10] And Konqueror agrees with it! [10:10] <|Cugel|> landley: I have the exact same problem. [10:10] landley: you have to edit your /etc/network/interfaces now... or you can just uninstall networkmanager and use kwifimanager instead (which is what i'm doing). [10:11] <|Cugel|> Perfect network, yet knetworkmanager insists there's nothing. [10:11] It worked fine in 7.04... [10:11] yeah, same here. [10:11] <|Cugel|> And I don't have wifi, but no way it lets me set up vpn. [10:11] landley: try sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart [10:11] What the heck does dbus have to do with the network interfaces in the system? [10:11] Sigh, why did they insert a single point of failure? [10:11] This was working... [10:11] maverick: that's for when the connection goes out, i think. not when it's permanently not showing up at all. [10:12] Why did I upgrade a working system? [10:12] tims: you want to upgrade to gutsy? [10:12] Lured into a false sense of security... [10:12] contrast83: well i did have your problem when i first installed and this worked [10:12] landley: it's not a hard fix at all. [10:12] No, I am on gutsy on one PC and dont want to update to the next release but theres no option like pre-release [10:12] landley: pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces [10:12] how to instal libSDL 1.2, ? [10:13] TimS: I don't think Adept will automatically go to a new release. Don't you have to click the Version Upgrade button when it shows up? [10:13] lg188: Are you compiling something? [10:13] is anyone having issues with frost wire [10:13] contrast83 no a game needs it and i dont have it [10:14] lg188: sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2 [10:14] lg188: what game? [10:14] contrast83 assult cube [10:15] contrast83 : the command says : there ar no canidats to instal it [10:15] ciaaaaaoooo [10:15] voicu > That worked! Thanks!

[10:34] emuse: use kile [10:34] wait [10:35] emuse: there is a package called kdvi [10:35] !kdvi [10:35] Sorry, I don't know anything about kdvi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [10:35] !info kdvi [10:35] kdvi: dvi viewer for KDE.

If everything is properly set up, you can click into KDVI's window with the middle mouse button (on some systems, when you don't have a three-button mouse, you can simultaneously use the left and the right button). After that, your favorite editor will open, load the TeX source file and jump to the proper paragraph.

[11:01] i had to leave mine sit for a minute before the monitor came good again [11:01] cause it said 'no signal' >_< [11:01] contrast83: no i didnt [11:01] nathan1111: mine doesnt say that [11:01] eagles0513875: give it a shot. that works for a lot of people when the live cd doesn't. [11:01] contrast83: lol when i go back to the us for 2 weeks lol [11:01] plus it's much faster. [11:02] contrast83: do u still end up with a desktop and all that [11:02] eagles0513875, Ok Mate just trying the obvious.. I have no real clues on java [11:02] yeah, it installs the exact same stuff [11:02] jxxt: kinda funny im learning java and have the latest java thats out there [11:02] java 6 jdk and jre [11:03] from bootup to the end of the human-interaction part, i'm done with the installation on the text-only cd in less than 5 minutes, and it's completely done in ~15 minutes after that. [11:03] lol [11:03] since im wanting to setup a server would it be better to install teh server version [11:03] that seems to work fine with the radeon 9800 its only when i switch to the desktop version [11:03] i dunno ill try the alt [11:04] probably so. i would imagine the server version just includes LAMP and no desktop environment, so it should be easy to make either one do both jobs. [11:05] im goign ot try the alt [11:05] what would be good specs for a dev machine [11:05] cuz i have a rather nice desktop that i could use that is also 64bit [11:05] can take up to 8gb of ram [11:05] i have no idea, tbh [11:05] wow. i envy you. [11:05] lol [11:05] hiii, someone can help me with assembly programming? [11:06] its an athlon 64 3200+ 2ghz processor on an asus a8n sli premium mobo which can handel 4 sata drives and has the ability to raid those 4 to another 4 sata drives lol [11:06] sli capable [11:06] and [11:06] this is the best part [11:06] single core? [11:06] if i can find an athlon fx or x2 socket 939 they can work with my borde as well [11:07] ya [11:07] its the exact same processor i have in this laptop [11:07] i bet you get great battery life. :-P [11:08] my laptop's got a 2ghz p4 and i get like, just over an hour on it. [11:08] contrast83: with linux about almost 2 hrs [11:08] winblows hr and a half [11:08] that is if i turn my screen brightness down [11:08] how do i fix this GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com gutsy-backports Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key [11:08] i have problem with my keyboard layout. [11:08] some people get all the cool gear.. all i have is a server that is the size of an endtable [11:08] abs0lutek0ld: what kinda server [11:09] ya'll give me some ideas what i can do that doesn't involve the use of internet , in kubuntu (stupid net cap) else im head off sleep [11:09] lol [11:09] to get anythign installed u need the net all u can really do is work with what u already got installed [11:09] sun ultra 3000.. 6gigs ram 6 400 mhz 64bit procs 10 9.1 gig hdds [11:09] yeah. i was gonna suggest some games, but i guess that's out. [11:10] abs0lutek0ld: thats kool [11:10] and heavy.. [11:10] abs0lutek0ld: that would make a sweet dev machine lol [11:10] i have abotu 4 comps of my own lol [11:10] one day was planning to use it for a storage node in a cluster [11:11] im really wanting to setup a cluster with the machiens i have [11:11] i've got 3, plus one that's out of commission (dead power supply) [11:11] abs0lutek0ld: did u use kubuntu to create the cluster [11:11] how hard is it to set up a cluster? [11:11] depends if u want the nodes to have diskless boot or not [11:11] if diskless u need to configure dns dhcp tftp [11:11] ahh, ok. way beyond my realm. :-P [11:11] also have about 6 sparc e450 with 2 gigs ram and quad 400 mhz procs [11:12] and then sym link folders and what not i have a how to cuz at the college i was at back in the state we were working creating one [11:12] abs0lutek0ld: u should join some boinc projects [11:12] i need to pack up one of my machines and bring it ovr here as my dev machine [11:12] is it possible to make xchat minimize to tray ? [11:12] can't find it in options [11:12] i dunno im using konversation [11:12] yeah i know but i dont really have the time [11:12] just to make sure i understand, a cluster basically lets you use the power of multiple computers as if they were one, right? [11:13] give the man a prize [11:13] . [11:13] yep [11:13] heh [11:13] but clustering only works as well as the paraellization of the code written [11:13] *puts on announcer voice* contrast u have one a brand new computer quad core amd machine and nice 22inch lcd monitor [11:13] abs0lutek0ld: do u know much about java [11:14] * contrast83 wets his pants [11:14] lol [11:14] i dont like it... nothing really [11:14] damn cuz i was wondering what it means when u say multithreaded programming [11:15] abs0lutek0ld: what you said about parallelization of the code, that would go for multicore procs as well, right? [11:15] contrast83 still onlien [11:15] contrast83: yep [11:15] yes [11:15] lg188: make any progress? [11:15] contrast83 is a little adictet to westnoth [11:15] ? [11:15] contrast83 nope [11:15] abs0lutek0ld: u know much programming regardless of the language [11:16] i am adicitet to westnoth sryy^.^ [11:16] that is what most developers seem to be going for as multi core units slowly take over the mainstream.. clustering is just the poor mans way of doing it [11:16] rofl [11:16] oh, heh. [11:16] what was the Q ? [11:16] abs0lutek0ld: i dont think so clusters will still be around but just increasing the power [11:17] or if you're a rich man, you could cluster several comps with multicore procs, right? [11:17] contrast83: or if ur a rich man just buy a main frame [11:17] its just cheaper to go get four old machines and some gigabit nics than a brand new dual quad core system [11:17] true [11:17] contrast83 i cnt install it and it is verry not funny [11:18] i have an old amd 900mhz machien a p4 1.7 a p4 2.6 and a 2ghz amd [11:18] lg188: i dunno, man. any reason in particular you're still on dapper? [11:18] the 2.6 i over clock get it to 3.1 and the 2ghz amd ive gotten up to 2.9 [11:18] contrast83: i think he likes the old school look [11:18] contrast83 i got it from a friend i dont care [11:18] whats that smell. ahh burning electronics.. a geek never forgets [11:19] if he wanted to upgrade to gutsy, he'd have to do dapper->edgy->feisty->gutsy, right? [11:19] contrast83: ya [11:19] yuck. [11:20] or go burn fiesty and to a reinstall [11:20] could do that too [11:20] right [11:20] or just burn gutsy [11:20] lol [11:20] * contrast83 assumed that's what he meant. ;-) [11:20] any of u guys have any programming experience [11:20] if u go from feisty its rather quite easy [11:20] well if you are going to do it the easy way [11:20] took me lest time to get this thing upgraded the 2nd time [11:21] i tried upgrading from feisty to gutsy on two seperate occasions and both of them failed. [11:21] anyone work with ftir multitouch displays [11:21] ????? === Surge is now known as Surge_ [11:21] how did u go about doing it [11:21] eagles0513875: followed the directions on the site to a t [11:21] u downloaded the updates [11:21] enabled the repos [11:21] yep [11:22] then what i did was used source o matic to change the source.list to gutsy sources and used the cl to dist upgrade [11:22] hmm... maybe i'll try that next time. seems that works better for a lot of people. [11:22] worked fine for me [11:23] my friend's girlfriend's box is still on feisty. i'll give it a shot when i fix hers up. [11:23] heh heh heh [11:23] :) if u need help and im on holla at me [11:23] will do, thanks [11:23] no prob [11:23] this was my first successful upgrade lol [11:23] abs0lutek0ld: snickering at the sound of "fixing up her box"? [11:23] Why is the DVD so big if it's only the alternate and desktop installs? It should be about 1.4GB not 3.6GB. What else is on the DVD? [11:24] wow [11:24] fix up her box lucky u [11:24] lol [11:24] time to take a stab at getting world of warcraft installed [11:24] or screw up her box.. these things are usually only a few keystrokes different [11:24] hehe [11:25] only problem i having is switching from one cd to the next it doesnt seem to find the next cd and auto launch it [11:25] and continue the installation [11:25] "whoops" is not what you want to hear the person working on your computer to say [11:25] indeed [11:25] any ideas guys [11:26] or r we still on the topic of boxes and fixing and screewing [11:26] eagles running cedega [11:26] eagles0513875: did you check its entry on winehq.org? [11:26] ??? [11:26] contrast83: what do i have to look for in the app db of wine [11:26] abs0lutek0ld: using wine [11:26] just the name of the game [11:26] its on there [11:27] ive gotten it to work on feisty [11:27] only thing that suxs r the fps [11:27] hopefully thats improved [11:27] not shure.. my luck has always been hit or miss. [11:27] been playing savage earth myself since they released the native linux verson free [11:28] nice [11:29] i'm hoping Orange Box will get a native linux version soon. [11:29] wow did have one at one point but they got rid of it during beta testing i dunno y [11:29] would worship the gods of valve if hl went native to linux [11:29] abs0lutek0ld: you heard about that job posting they had on their site, right? [11:29] abs0lutek0ld: u use cedega or wine [11:30] yeah. but it isn't native.. [11:30] no contrast83 [11:30] abs0lutek0ld: they were looking for people to port their games to Linux [11:30] im lucky i gave my resume to a guy who works for a software company and i think he is goign ot hire me after i graduate in 2011 [11:30] i'd imagine HL would be one of them [11:30] im working on a bsc in Computing and information systems [11:31] would love to be on the project but i just started going back to school and have the programming skill of a limabean [11:31] abs0lutek0ld: im teh same [11:31] im a noob when it comes to java [11:31] its one of the classes i have to take for my degree [11:32] ditto though i am more interested in c and python [11:32] ^ +1 [11:33] i want to get just a bit firmer a grasp on bash before i move onto anything more involved than that though. [11:33] but that is still a long way off for me.. not many of the creds transfer from what i was studying so i am back to zip [11:33] ^+1 [11:33] heh [11:34] and my hobbies are the kind of time intensive ones that leave me little time for things like sleeping [11:34] speaking of which, i think i'm gonna go finish this script i've been working on. good chatting, y'all. [11:34] latter [11:35] contrast83: what kinda script [11:35] abs0lutek0ld: google dive into python [11:35] free online book [11:36] a git script for compiz. trying to make one that does some extra stuff the 325235 other ones out there don't do though. :-) [11:36] did anybody get compiz working with nVidia graphics card for the amd64 architecture? [11:36] byte size python is a good start for python also. a little more introductory than diveintopython, i think. [11:37] heiner: did you try compiling it? [11:37] no [11:37] right now i'm trying to build a ftir multitouch display.. bouncing ir light around capuring it with a webcam and then projecting my display against it. large touchscreen monitor yay [11:37] debian "unstable" distribution [11:37] heiner: you might need to go that route [11:37] will have to check it out [11:38] heiner: doesn't same have amd64 debs for compiz? [11:38] s/same/shame [11:38] contrast83: yes, there are packages, but once I get to "compiz --replace &" my window decorations vanish, and that's it :-( [11:39] contrast83: "shame"? [11:41] shame maintains a 3rd party debian repo for compiz [11:41] but it sounds like that might not help you. [11:41] heiner: did you already ask in #compiz-fusion? [11:42] contrast83: I was not aware of that channel. I'll try it, thanks! [11:42] np [11:43] Does anyone have a clue why sound in k is being pissy. system sounds are fine but sometimes if i am watching something on youtube or playing a game the sound comes back whisper quiet. and then comes back unexpectedly. [11:43] how would i find out what is hijacking alsa [11:44] maybe try keeping an eye on top while it happens? [11:44] or is it too inconsistent for that? [11:45] usually i dont see anything different on top.. [11:45] hmm [11:47] firefox will be hogging resources for whatever and nothings else is burnning anything special.. then a minute later its like k goes "oh shit you needed that oh sorry. whatever was i thinking" and my ears start bleeding because i had the amplified volume all the way up === schiste is now known as schiste_ [11:47] I has a problem. Could I have some help with restarting/resetting the internet connection? === kevin_ is now known as bbkoos [11:47] lol === schiste_ is now known as Serein [11:48] Locke: wireless? [11:48] Nope [11:48] what does it take to program in 64bit [11:48] kahonies [11:48] sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [11:48] Locke: that should do it [11:49] The htaccess is disabled on my apache, I worked hard to enable it but I couldn't ! :( [11:49] anyone can help ? [11:50] Doesn't seem to work. Due to my ISP I get frequent disconnects. In windows I just had to repiar the connection to get it working again [11:50] Locke: what kinda card is it [11:51] abs0lutek0ld: whats so different from 32bit programming [11:51] built-in [11:51] Locke: do lscpi and it lists all ur devices and one of thsoe will be ur wireless [11:51] mines built in too but that doesnt say much [11:52] my exact model is a bcm4306 [11:53] abs0lutek0ld: what bout programming in 64bit takes balls === Serein is now known as schiste_ [11:53] i honestly dont know. just was being silly.. it would probably have to do with the increased bandwith i know programming in 64 does eat up more memory [11:53] eagles0513875: it's not a wireless card [11:53] contrast83: oh [11:54] abs0lutek0ld: it might eat up more memory but its alot faster then 32bit [11:54] i kiledf a programm in the bar downside and i have no bar no more !!!! [11:55] te bar disapears [11:55] any body knows a solution ? [11:55] i know that it was a problem back in the day when a few select arch's went 64 because of memory constraints back in the day but today there shouldn't be any reason not to. (is why the memory banks on my sparcs are 16 slots!!!!!!!!) === schiste_ is now known as schiste [11:57] eagles0513875: programming for 64-bit in the easiest case only requires the right compiler ;-) [11:57] hello [11:57] i aksed somthing [11:57] heiner: r there any in kubuntu [11:57] !64bit [11:57] AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu.

[12:58] Locke, there is a "manual configuration" option in network manager [12:58] I get disconnected on aregular basis due to my isp. Would be nice with a command to "regain network" activity without having to reboot [12:59] BluesKaj: Will check. [13:00] BluesKaj: Manual config for what? [13:00] Locke: you connected through a wired ethernet connection? [13:00] hi all, i changed some of my windows partitions last night, and now grub wont boot, i guess maybe because the partition numbers changed, how can i fix this? [13:00] z1pp3r: yes. [13:01] Locke: sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0 [13:01] should work [13:01] brb then, will try [13:01] replace eth0 with the name of your network card [13:01] found in /etc/network/interfaces [13:02] aha [13:02] is there a way to reinstall grub? im a complete novice in bootloaders [13:02] Hamra: search the ubuntu wiki for "recover grub" [13:02] !recoveringGrub [13:02] grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

Welcome to #kubuntu! [13:25] How do I determine the filesystem of an unmounted partition? [13:25] donsdw: tried using qtparted? [13:25] "fdisk -l" perhaps [13:28] jpatrick: No, is that a linux command or someone's software? [13:29] donsdw: it's in the repos (apt-get install qtparted) [13:29] jpatrick, system settings/advanced/disk&file systems [13:30] if you just want a look [13:30] jpatrick: You know, I think I did look at it once. Is it a gnome app? [13:30] no QTparted ;) [13:31] donsdw: you are confused with GTparted [13:32] Since my move from Dapper to Gutsy my konqueror wont browse into tar/bzip etc archives anymore. Nor do the archives show up in the treeview. Anyone know how to repair that? (by the way: I removed Ark) [13:32] timri: You may be correct, sir. [13:33] I'm installing qtparted now. [13:35] Or, as a more general question: how to I re-associate mimetypes/extensions/whatever with the proper kioslave [13:35] timri: you should have Ark... [13:35] timri: go to Settings->Configure konqueror->File Associations [13:35] emilsedgh: I uninstalled it, cant stand it. And anyway, I have never needed it, since konqueror (without Ark) could drill into the archives just fine [13:35] jpatrick: Thanks. qtparted has the info I need. [13:36] emilsedgh: File Assocs wont let me associate with kioslaves (at least I dont see how to do it) [13:36] timri: no, i think konqueror needs ark to show archives inside itself, lemme see [13:36] emilsedgh: That was certainly not neccesary in Dapper days. [13:36] timri: you should choose 'Embeeded Viewer' instead of 'Seperate Viewer' in top of the window [13:36] hi [13:37] I have a problem [13:37] I have a process that starts to eat all my cpu [13:37] emilsedgh: Will try that, one minute [13:37] but neither top and ksystemguard shows it [13:37] ps aux [13:37] I'm sure that eats cpu because a them eof superkaramba shows 100% cpu eating and the fun is always on [13:37] I just tried compiz fusion on kubuntu gutsy. no icons appear on ccsm. all defau;t plugin settings just seem wierd to begin with... is that normal? [13:37] how can I do? [13:38] what mean "queue track" in amork? [13:38] emilsedgh: x-tar was already set to embedded, sadly [13:38] timri: i have ark but no embeeded viewer, so let me search a little [13:38] is there a way to show this hidden process that eats all my cpu? [13:38] emilsedgh: That would be great, thanks [13:39] My amarok won't start...any good command to force it or something? [13:39] emilsedgh: Btw: I CAN browse into the archives if I (manually) prepend the path with the correct protocol (tar:/) [13:39] funcrush, it means put track in the active playlist [13:40] BluesKaj, thanks so much!! [13:40] timri: dunno, cant find anything :(, but i think there is a missing .dektop file somewhere or something like that, because konqueror can do that, but do not knows itself [13:41] emilsedgh: yeah, that was what I was afraid of. teaches me a lesson: never fresh install while keeping /home :) [13:42] timri: hm, i did a fresh install without keeping home, i havent it to, so maybe feisty+ fault (im on feisty) [13:42] emilsedgh: Newly created users have the same problem on gutsy [13:42] emilsedgh: Do you see the archives konquerors treeview? [13:43] timri: so maybe its the fault of newer versions of ubuntu or kde [13:43] no [13:44] emilsedgh: Thats what I am starting to think. Iam gonne diff the dapper and gutsy skeleton settings this evening, perhaps I can find the culprit that way [13:44] so if you found something, please send a patch or fill a bug report to devs :) [13:44] emilsedgh: Will do, and thanks for your time. [13:45] np timri [13:45] could someone please tell me how to change from using kdm to gdm? [13:46] hi all [13:48] When I mount a newly formatted hard disk via a USB-IDE converter I see a directory called lost+found. What is this? [13:50] does Kubuntu have a font browser? [13:51] I upgraded to Gutsy last week and haven't had any upgrades available from Adept since. Is that normal? [13:51] vbgunz: Point Konqueror at a fonts directory. [13:51] vbgunz: It does thumbnails for them. [13:52] vbgunz: If you type ttf into the address bar, locate will show you where they are all kept. [13:53] toby: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/lostfound.html [13:54] Hi, i installed the fglrx driver for my X1950, but i can't get direct rendering working - here is my xorg.conf, any ideas what to change? [13:54] http://pastebin.kubuntu-de.org/18886 === bio_ is now known as Bugzilla [13:56] toby: thanks, konqueror insist though on searching google for ttf. I enabled locate in web shortcuts, not sure what the problem is. I may go to console with locate if I cannot get it to work :) [13:56] its a question about symbolic links from MY documents to home/keith/desktop [13:56] linux doesnt seem to recognise my documents as one directory [13:56] MarcC: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn [13:56] which makes it a little difficult [13:57] anybody speak russian?

[13:58] timri: I got something with locate:\*.ttf [13:59] llutz: Thanks. [14:00] I don't get previews though. I changed my default view mode from detailed to a bunch of others. I do not see previews :/ [14:00] does linux recognis directories like MY Documents or do they have to be my.documents? [14:01] foxhound31: it'll recognize anything [14:01] yeah then thats more confusing [14:01] vbgunz: In Konqueror, you have view/previews in the menu... everything enabled? [14:01] foxhound31: but linux is case sensitive so MY DOCs is different from my docs OR My Docs [14:01] toby: checking [14:02] yeah remember that now from university [14:02] foxhound31: Linux even lets you put question marks etc in filenames [14:02] toby: if I hover I get a preview [14:02] the symbolic link seems to think that My Documents is 2 directories [14:02] toby: e.g., I do not have view > preview [14:03] can I enclose it in quotes or something to get around that? [14:03] foxhound31: My\ Documents or "My Documents" [14:03] ok cool [14:03] foxhound31: Or use the tab key in konsole [14:03] vbgunz: Set view mode toIcon view. [14:04] toby: yeah I tried that. I just see big icons of ttf... no preview though... maybe my preview settings are interfering here, I'll check for them [14:04] and just to be sure I do ln source target [14:04] or is ln -s target source? [14:05] foxhound31: Open konqueror, type #ln in the location bar (# opens the manpage) [14:05] ok thanks [14:05] toby: I enabled previews [14:05] on fonts files that is :) [14:05] toby: it looks good, thank you for your help :) [14:07] how come kubuntu took 1/2 hr longer than Ubuntu? [14:08] since kde is soooooo konfigurable... can i have the workspaces in a single row instead of a square? [14:09] livingdaylight: make your taskbar less tall [14:09] livingdaylight: you're going to be asking a ton of questions like that. experiment. yes [14:09] livingdaylight: settings rows 1 [14:09] :) [14:09] yes, i'm new to kde and kubuntu... i want to make it look as nice possible [14:09] vbgunz: :) [14:10] vbgunz: do you get alot of people ask alot of questions like that? [14:10] livingdaylight: I asked a lot of questions like that :) [14:11] after a while, you'll get it :) [14:12] vbgunz: maybe you can help me then... i probably have alot of questions like you did [14:12] just back to say thank you for the help I got it to work [14:12] bye for now [14:12] foxhound31: cool, cya [14:12] livingdaylight: do you know about kcontrol? [14:12] livingdaylight: thats probably the heart and center blood of KDE configurations [14:13] vbgunz: no... i just see 'K's' everywhere... its disturbing [14:13] vbgunz: And it got shoved to the background by Kubuntu in favor of ksystemsettings brrrr [14:13] where is K Kontrol? [14:14] livingdaylight: alt+F2 kcontrol [14:14] timri: imho, that is retared... instead of making modules that'll fit right into kcontrol, they duplicated the effort... I can only imagine how much wasted time went into that :( [14:15] vbgunz: I concur, and instead of what the usability folks say, it is a LOT harder to use for my parents (switched to kcontrol their computers) [14:15] heh, I remember that being one of the first things I did. i changed the shortcut to point to kcontrol [14:16] vbgunz: Same here. I also removed dolphin (or d3lphin as it is apparently called) [14:16] how can I view where my HD partitions are mounted to (/dev/sda, etc)? [14:16] MarcC: kinfocenter [14:16] thanks timri [14:16] I used Ubuntu for a long time. then tried PC-BSD. PC-BSD came with KDE and after a lot of experimenting it got me hooked to KDE. when I switched to Kubuntu, I could not find kcontrol in the menus. I got burnt. I eventually found it and paid my homage to the great app :) [14:17] llutz: settings rows 1? can you tell me where? [14:17] vbgunz: (whispers) I prefer the non-fouled up version of debian [14:18] livingdaylight: rightclick on switcher-applet, settings -> [14:18] timri: I am considering that. dolpin is freaking scary. I mean, if over time, more and more apps are swapped out for simpler ones.

[14:24] it is called pager [14:24] llutz: i don't get any arrow [14:24] livingdaylight: to get the arrow on the left of any applet, you'll need to unlock your panels [14:25] vbgunz: pager options... yes, thx [14:25] they might not show depending on your settings, but a grippy should be on the left of every applet [14:25] can you add something to a shortcut to have the window open in the upperright hand corner of my screen with it having no boarders and is on top of all the other windows?

[15:17] kubuntu [15:18] !dualboot [15:18] Dual boot instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty [15:18] !samba [15:18] samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT [15:18] TheKing: Yeah, look at those guides, I think the easiest way for you is to isntall XP, then boot from the kubuntu live cd and reinstall grub [15:19] ah ok [15:19] Hi! [15:19] TheKing: it's easy, don't worry, else just come back here [15:20] if i do that, will the GRUB menu load or will XP boot directly into it? [15:20] TheKing: If you reinstall grub, the grub menu should load [15:21] Will there be a Windows option in GRUB? [15:21] TheKing: After installing XP grub will be gone, so you boot the live cd and reinstall grub [15:21] TheKing: I can give you a link on how to reinstall grub [15:21] please do [15:21] Shapeshifter: I was just about to ask for that [15:22] hey, so im using feisty and adept doesnt want to allow me to update to gutsy. any ideas? === MeTa[AwAy] is now known as MetaMorfoziS [15:23] TheKing, ardchoille : http://pastebin.ca/759811 [15:23] anyone know how i can add something to every filename in a dir at once with one command ? [15:23] thanks [15:24] newsense07: if you want a GUI app, you can try kfilereplace [15:24] have 17 directories i need to do this for with multiple files [15:24] Jucato: in prefer commandline if ya know of something [15:24] Shapeshifter: ty [15:24] TheKing, ardchoille: Important thing is to use the right partition, I said (hd2,0) as an example, you will most likely get something else. [15:24] newsense07: you could write a bash script [15:24] on window switcher i click pager options and untick or try to untick Desktop number, but the numbers are still there? [15:24] newsense07, i agree with Jucato on this one... [15:24] Hi everybody, somebody know wich kind of software is similar to symantec pcanywhere ? [15:24] see i have only 1 hard drive, will it still work? [15:24] newsense07: unfortunately.... nope... needs bash magic [15:25] yeah i got no time i guess ill try that, thanks jucato [15:25] * Jucato tries to practice bash-fu... [15:25] with proper partitioning [15:25] newsense07: bash wouldnt be that long like for FILES in $(ls /dir) do mv ${FILES} ${FILES}bla done [15:26] Hi everybody, somebody know wich kind of software is similar to symantec pcanywhere ? [15:26] can someone tell me how i disable konqueror as default browser? [15:26] simisa: what does that do? [15:26] TheKing: yes, for grub, the first, and in your case only disk will bi 0, and the partitions, if you have two, will be 0 and 1. So if you have two partitions, first kubuntu, then XP, you will have to use >root (hd0,0) which is the partition kubuntu is installed. [15:26] remote connection to another pc with symantec pcanywhere protocol [15:26] is it possible to purge konqueor or is it part of kubuntu default setup? [15:26] yeah than id have to modify it evertime i , wait maybe that aint as time consuming [15:27] ok [15:27] TheKing: Make sure you use primary partitions for both kubuntu and XP, that will safe you some trouble [15:27] ok [15:27] so my steps are: [15:27] 1) Install XP first [15:27] 2) Load Live CD and install to HDD [15:27] newsense07: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43127/ << take that as a starting point and repalce with a real tab ;) [15:27] livingdaylight: I think it's possible. but some parts of KDE might expect KOnqueror to be there. it's more than just a file manager or just a web browser... it's both :) [15:27] 3) Reinstall GRUB [15:27] livingdayight > I just did thatrecently [15:28] newsense07: $1 and $2 and the 2 parameters [15:28] right? [15:28] TheKing: do you have kubuntu installed already? [15:28] yes i do [15:28] living > as jucato says, better not completely -urge konqueror, but you can set up a different default browser [15:28] Jucato: i would be happy to make Dolphin the file manager and use opera for browsing or kazehasake even [15:28] tuxwulf: sweet, lets do that already then [15:28] dolphin... [15:29] * Jucato shudders [15:29] TheKing: have you done your partitioning already? or are you planning on wiping the whole drive (with your kubuntu) and seting everything up from zero? [15:29] Jucato: heh? [15:29] amen, Jucato [15:29] m4rku5: cool, been a while since i wrote any shell scripts and id like to start doing it more when i need to [15:29] hey Jucato how was your date? [15:29] what's wrong with Dolfin? [15:29] livingdaylight: have you actually *used* dolphin? [15:29] Shapeshifter: from scratch [15:29] thunar is better. [15:29] livingdaylight: specially the version of dolphin on Kubuntu 7.10... it's D3lphin.. and it's very... finicky to say the least [15:29] living > system settings -- default applcations [15:29] Daisuke_Ido: not really, i've got fresh kubuntu here first time [15:30] TheKing: well then it's really easy, just: 1) Wipe everything, 2) Install XP, 3) Install Kubuntu. Kubuntu will handle grub, and there will be a XP entry automatically [15:30] k [15:30] perfect [15:30] livingdaylight: better try using D3lphin first before you make a decision :) [15:30] btw I still have a problem with my (damn) wlan card - it doesnt show up on lspci or lspcmcia :( http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43125/ << can you please look at that ? i mean it shows up when booting a knoppix CD :( (its some atheros chip with windows drivers only) so i must have done something wrong here :S [15:30] play with dolphin for a bit then decide [15:30] well i will be back in maybe 40 mins to do this [15:30] livingdaylight: and it's the default file manager in Kubuntu 7.10 anyway [15:30] Jucato: why then is it part of default kubuntu install, Do i really need konqueror and dolphin file managers? [15:30] TheKing: good luck [15:30] you're better off with konqueror [15:30] Yes, ill need it [15:31] Daisuke_Ido: i prefer konqueror too ;P [15:31] livingdaylight: Konqueror is still there because it's the default web browser installed. [15:31] total newbie [15:31] here goes... [15:31] TheKing: wait [15:31] m4rku5: anyone that's touched d3lphin for any length of time over 10 seconds prefers konqueror [15:31] livingdaylight: Do you really need konqueror and dolphin as file managers? why don't you try out first and find out for yourself. use if for a week and see [15:31] livingdaylight: speaking as someone who has used *buntu for years, d3lphin took too much getting used to and didn't have much of the functionality of konqueror, so I don't use it. === emilsedgh_ is now known as emilsedgh [15:32] even nautilus is better :) [15:32] ardchoille: coming from ubuntu i was very happy with nautilus [15:32] lol [15:32] Daisuke_Ido: nah! D3lphin is better than Nautilus on at least 2 areas [15:32] Daisuke_Ido: yeah i saw it the first time when i installed kubuntu on this laptop (im usually a gentoo user but i didnt have lots of time to get this box setup lol) [15:32] livingdaylight: Nautilus is cool, d3lphin is.. just too much of a change all at once. [15:32] 1) it's kde and 2) it's not gnome? [15:32] this seems like bloat again... i suppose that's kde though [15:32] Daisuke_Ido: D3lphin is KDE, and it has a funky breadcrumb toolbar (unlike GNOME's) [15:33] bloat is subjective [15:33] one man's trash is another man's treasure [15:33] TheKing: you still there? [15:33] how does nautilus not have a breadcrumb toolbar? [15:33] Jucato: Exactly [15:33] coming from GNOME, you'll consider everything functional as bloat! :) [15:33] * Jucato runs and hides [15:33] where is Add/Remove Applications so i can add my non-free codecs n stuff? [15:33] livingdaylight: K Menu -> Add/Remove Programs [15:33] Jucato: har har [15:33] it's right there [15:34] Daisuke_Ido: the breadcrumb toolbar in d3lphin is much different than that of nautilus [15:34] Jucato: gots kbfx now [15:34] however, i think the being able to click on the 'crumbs' and select a different directory at that level is cool [15:34] livingdaylight: your problem then :P [15:34] you may not like kbfx [15:34] livingdaylight: j/k. just type in Add and see the results [15:34] lol [15:34] Jucato: had to... K Menu is toooo ugly.... just a fact [15:34] Daisuke_Ido: yeah. that's my reason #2 :) [15:34] beauty is in the eye of the beholder :) [15:34] livingdaylight: then go for kickoff [15:35] or beerholder, as the case may be [15:35] the most beautiful krap will still be krap though :) [15:35] Jucato: sweet, that worked [15:35] (not saying kbfx is krap.. but needs work) [15:35] * Daisuke_Ido sips a coffee [15:35] anyone here familar with PCMCIA cards ? anything special i need to do on (k)ubuntu ? its just now showing up the damn card and i know that the card is compatible with this controller :( [15:35] Daisuke_Ido: I had too much trouble getting kickoff to work. [15:35] ardchoille: really? poor you :P [15:35] install deb, all done :) [15:35] Daisuke_Ido: kickoff another one? [15:35] yeah :) [15:35] livingdaylight: there are 3 K Menu alternatives: kbfx, kickoff (originally from SUSE), and tasty menu [15:36] take your pick :) [15:36] oh wait, livingdaylight, have you even tried Katapult yet? [15:36] livingdaylight: kickoff is to kbfx as excellent beer is to contaminated water [15:36] livingdaylight: tastymenu is pretty cool too [15:36] ....bit too husy here for me... [15:36] Daisuke_Ido: can you customize/theme/plugin kickoff (aside from adding/removing favorites)? [15:36] Daisuke_Ido: oh... gotz to try it then... in repos? [15:36] Jucato: hrmmm... so many options [15:37] kbfx is nice [15:37] tuxwulf: yeah.. there are times it does :) [15:37] * Jucato heres "bloat" comment coming again... [15:37] bazhang: i agree.. kbfx certainly is preferable to K Menu imo [15:37] livingdaylight: tastymenu is not in the repos, but there is an ubuntu.deb for it [15:37] * livingdaylight wonders what tasty menu looks like [15:37] unfortunately kbfx development has all but stopped... because of raptor... === home_ is now known as bluebeat [15:37] Jucato: it's not infinitely customizable, but it's better than kbfx in stability :D [15:37] livingdaylight: search in kde-apps.org and find out :) [15:38] Jucato: raptor? [15:38] Jucato: raptor will replace it? [15:38] bazhang: not really [15:38] is kickoff in repos? [15:38] cheers. [15:38] Raptor is the KDE4 "successor" of kbfx [15:38] oho [15:38] same devs [15:38] Eh... I downlaoded a 7.10 gutsy Kubuntu CD, installed it, and now I was updating some stuff and now it tells me that there's a new version "7.10" available... what is this? It's already installed! [15:38] but completely different [15:38] hopefully less krappy [15:39] nice [15:39] Shapeshifter: known bug, fix is upstream, yadda yadda [15:39] Daisuke_Ido: hopefully also going to even reach beta soon :) [15:39] livingdaylight: Look at the download options here: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Tasty+Menu?content=41866 [15:39] livingdaylight: again, have you tried katapult? [15:40] Jucato: whats katapult? [15:40] livingdaylight: i left Jucato a message on his blog that simply read 'katapult' over and over again [15:40] livingdaylight: katapult is a fancy launcher, like Quicksilver for Mac OS X. [15:40] posingaspopular: :) [15:40] !katapult | livingdaylight [15:40] livingdaylight: katapult is the new application launcher for KDE, to be used with applications, bookmarks, and Amarok playlists. Once you have installed, hit Alt+f2 -> katapult, then hit Alt+Space, and type what you want. [15:40] Jucato: Why does konqueror try to open a .deb in kate instead of downloading it? [15:40] alt+space+program name/musicfile/folder name etc [15:41] livingdaylight: you can skip the part with Alt+F2 [15:41] livingdaylight: katapult is installed and running by default [15:41] anyone know why my browser would still try to download .php files instead of view them? I have apache and php5_mod installed on kubuntu [15:41] ardchoille: server bug. workaround, use kget :) [15:41] Jucato: Ah, thanks [15:41] probably related to Lenaud01's problem as well.... [15:42] or not.. [15:42] what is Jucato? [15:42] nvm :) [15:43] livingdaylight: press Alt+Space right now, you'll get a fancy box. type a part of the name of a program you want to run, then when the correct program name or icon shows up, press Enter [15:43] you don't even have to type the full name of the program. it will try to autocomplete based on the characters you've typed [15:43] and now I'm gone :) [15:44] ok, i gotz some scrolling up and catching up to do... i was installing kubuntu restricted and the phone went its ALL too much! :D [15:44] if I upgrade to KDE 4, will it upgrade my kernel? [15:44] my alt-space didnt do anything after loading katapult...maybe due to compiz? [15:44] beta that is [15:44] navets_: KDE != kernel [15:44] so no === bluebeat is now known as Jukali [15:44] Daisuke_Ido: how can I upgrade my kernel [15:44] the two have absolutely NOTHING to do with each other :) [15:44] Daisuke_Ido: or reinstall it [15:44] navets_: you running gutsy? [15:45] hmmm...in Wind*ws it's called "Extended Desktop" in KDE it's called ...? [15:45] Daisuke_Ido: yes I tried to update my sound drivers, now I have no sound at all and no mixer [15:45] that's not the kernel [15:45] I think Gome is "Twinview"? [15:45] Gnome* [15:45] Daisuke_Ido: from what I could figure out I am missing snddevices [15:45] it would be twinview in kde as well... [15:45] navets_: cat /dev/dsp [15:45] cool - thanks for clarification [15:45] Jucato: nice very nish! [15:45] that may not work [15:45] probably Ktwinview tho :) [15:46] no [15:46] j/k [15:46] it's part of X, not gnome [15:46] Daisuke_Ido: cat: /dev/dsp: No such file or directory [15:46] hrmm [15:46] ok, so I have twinview working === vladimir_ is now known as ss-88 [15:46] that took a while [15:47] Daisuke_Ido: from what I understand I have to run the snddevices script. The thing is i have no idea where it is [15:47] but I have a real niggle...when I go full screen it tries to go across both windows [15:47] Jukali: that's how twinview works. [15:47] I got it working nce but it didnt retain the settings [15:47] not in Windows and I have had it working correctly in Gnome, briefly [15:47] does adept's repository manager store its settings somewhere other than in /etc/apt/sources? [15:47] navets_: lspci | grep audio [15:47] when you maximise it maximises to the window it is in [15:48] also the menus try to stretch across both screens [15:48] so the bottom one actually drops off [15:48] Jukali: there's no twinview in windows, therefore it can't work that way in windows [15:48] Daisuke_Ido: does not return anything when I do that [15:48] eww [15:48] weird [15:48] well them [15:48] let me take a look here... [15:48] added a package using adept and it doesn't show up [15:48] In Windows that's how "extended desktop" works it is also how I have had it working in Gnome [15:49] smorg: /etc/apt/sources.list [15:49] Firefox can't be closed properly. When I try to restart it, it says another firefox process is still running... [15:49] yeah [15:49] is your sources list [15:49] yep [15:49] @ozehka is it in your list of running processes? [15:49] Yes, I can kill it of course [15:49] there anything you can do if when I try to remove apache it says that its a broken install and wont do anything in adept [15:49] /var/cache/apt/archives/ [15:49] but why can't i close it properly [15:49] is where the packages get stored [15:50] does it happen every time? [15:50] Also, I am having the problem that pages would only show their contents if I change the windows' size [15:50] yes [15:50] is it built in Firefix or latest build? [15:50] latest i think [15:50] sorry [15:50] Lenaud01: sudo apt-get -f install [15:50] that wasn't clear [15:50] Jucato: im trying to append 01- to all files in a dir using kfilereplace but im having no luck, how would i do something like that if ya dont mind ? [15:50] ty Daisuke_Ido [15:50] Daisuke_Ido: do you think that it has something to do with snddevices since lspci | grep audio does not return anything? [15:51] navets_: i don't know enough about sound to know for sure [15:51] Daisuke_Ido: do you know where I could run that script? A few forums said to run it, but i have no idea where it is. [15:51] when i try that Daisuke_Ido I get this E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [15:52] navets_: i'm not finding it... [15:52] hi guys [15:52] Lenaud01: that could be an issue that i'm not sure how to fix :\ [15:52] i need ah help [15:52] Daisuke_Ido: damn, is there a way I can redo the gutsy upgrade? [15:52] make sure adept isn't running [15:53] its not [15:53] Daisuke_Ido: when i went from fiesty to gutsy the sound worked (very poorly) [15:53] how I can conf the open with menu on konq? [15:53] virtualbox is awesome [15:53] navets_: you could back up your /home and reinstall from scratch [15:53] navets_, you could try ,'sudo asoundconf list' [15:53] probably have the best luck that way [15:53] !kickoff [15:53] Kickoff is a new KDE menu replacement developed by openSUSE. See http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2331 [15:53] pls :( [15:54] guys, where do i get kickoff? [15:54] BluesKaj: that says names of abaliable sound cards: then it returns nothing [15:55] ok, navets_ to choose which souncard you want to use , sudo asoundconf set-default-card "name of soundcard" [15:55] nobody? [15:55] BluesKaj: i think he means it doesn't return any available sound cards [15:55] in which case, there's a definite problem [15:55] bummer [15:55] BluesKaj: yes it does not return any [15:55] this sucks [15:56] i wish i didn't upgrade to gutsy [15:56] if i already have konqueror or any browser open for that matter, how do i get each weburl to openin a new tab rather than a whole new browser altogether? [15:56] it broke everything [15:56] somebody know the file rc to conf? [15:56] livingdaylight: it's in koinqueror's configure module [15:56] livingdaylight: 1 min let me find it [15:57] livingdaylight: do configure konqueror>web behavior> tabbed browisng [15:57] hdevalence: thx bro [15:58] hdevalence: can u help me pls? [15:58] Rebelyouth: ok [15:58] :) [15:58] how I can conf the open with menu on konq? [15:59] hdevalence: actually it was already set to that... but from konversation everytime i open a link i get a new browser open... do i need to configure konversation? [15:59] Rebelyouth: the one you get from rightclicking? [15:59] yes [15:59] anyone here familiar with kfilereplace that can help me ? [16:00] livingdaylight: I have no idea. for me when I open a link in konversation it opens in the same window [16:00] livingdaylight: are they on the same desktop? [16:00] hdevalence: yes [16:00] livingdaylight: weird... [16:01] Rebelyouth: what happens when you do open with... and then do "remember application association" [16:01] hdevalence: also weird is that when you type my name konversation doesn't light up red as it usually does when i'm away [16:02] navets_, have you checked all your alsa and kmix settings ? [16:02] BluesKaj: kmix doesnt detect a mixer [16:02] BluesKaj: kmix doesnt detect a mixe [16:02] livingdaylight: You could try asking in the ubuntu forums, they have lots of talented people there [16:02] hdevalence: I remove firefox for swithfox and now when i want to open a page with swithfox the links gone [16:02] BluesKaj: when i do alsamixer in konsol it gives me an error saying its not there [16:03] BluesKaj: i need to run an snddevices script or something like that, but i have no idea where it is [16:03] i need all the time to do open with > other > write swithfox [16:03] Rebelyouth: like, you have an html file on your computer and are trying to open it? [16:03] and of course sound system in system settings [16:04] well, its kde related so, i dunno [16:04] oh and btw does anyone here know anything about virtualbox? [16:04] where would i find kickoff by the way? hdevalence d'you know? [16:04] navets_, try this : k-menu/system settings/sound system/enable sound system,then choose hardware tab/select the audio device/Advanced Linux Sound Architecture, click apply [16:05] hdevalence: no some page don't work well so i right click on the open page on konq and with open with open firefox with the same page [16:05] BluesKaj: it already has those settings [16:05] livingdaylight: no idea. [16:05] hdevalence: now i change with swithfox and the voice in the menu is dissapear [16:06] which souncard do you have , navets_ ? [16:06] BluesKaj: intel hda [16:06] Rebelyouth: does it appear in the Location menu [16:06] BluesKaj: i think [16:06] hdevalence: no [16:06] hdevalence: I have open with links2 and that it [16:07] Rebelyouth: not sure how to fix it, sorry..

[16:09] nobody know what file I need to mod? [16:10] does anyone know where the kernel sourcetree is [16:11] if installed in /usr/src/linux i belive [16:11] hi [16:11] * asktoby is about to run a dist upgrade... fingers crossed! [16:11] can someone help me, im getting this error/notice when im trying to compile wine on kubuntu gutsy http://rafb.net/p/M1edOF24.html [16:11] Any last minute warnings? I've done a backup of /home, /etc and my MySQL dbs. [16:11] I'll be going via Adept's route. [16:12] asktoby: are you doing "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"? [16:12] asktoby: nvm, you should be ok [16:12] ardchoille: I was planning on pressing the big blue Version Upgrade button in Adept. [16:13] asktoby: ok [16:13] somebody know how can configure the bookmarks on konq to don't take all my screen? [16:13] navets_, check this out : http://thio4linux.wordpress.com/2007/10/06/intel-hda-intel-corporation-82801g/ [16:13] Jucato: okay i got these core.numbers files in my /home/user folder and when I opened up uped using 'file core.18431' I got this message: core.14831: ELF 32-bit LSB core file Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), SVR4-style [16:13] Rebelyouth: Sounds like you need to reorganise your biikmarks, use folders [16:14] or anyone really that knows that answer [16:14] ardchoille: I use but I have much bookmark [16:14] BluesKaj: :) that is what I was doing to fix my sound, but it broke it completly [16:15] gawd [16:15] Rebelyouth: Even the best organising skills won't help if you have too much content [16:15] ardchoille: so when i click bookmarks a old style panel (like the old menu of win95) [16:15] navets_, I assume lspci lists your card tho ?

[16:16] ardchoille: is possible to have like firefox a single menu i can go up and down? [16:16] ? [16:16] hi [16:16] salve [16:16] Rebelyouth: With too much content, even a single menu would require you to scroll too much [16:16] navets_, so it's a matter of installing the correct driver [16:17] spik italian [16:17] ardchoille: i show you [16:17] hmm [16:17] BluesKaj: no, I re-installed the drivers about 10 times, I found out I am missing OSS and MIXER [16:17] does synaptic not feature in kubuntu anymore at all? [16:17] #ubuntu [16:17] BluesKaj: a script called snddevices is supose to be able to fix this, but i cannot find it [16:18] hello [16:19] WHen should alsa be started? [16:19] 1234506s?

[16:21] !alsa [16:21] 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 [16:21] ardchoille: yes, but why i can't conf like firefox? [16:21] ardchoille: to scroll the contest? [16:21] Rebelyouth: Because konq isn't firefox?

Hiow to make it start? [16:22] ardchoille: :) I khow , but there is some pacth around or some hidden conf file? [16:22] keep in mind that alsa-source is older than using linux-backports-modules-$(uname -r) [16:22] Rebelyouth: Not that I know of [16:22] bazhang: Hi :) [16:23] join #ubuntu-doc? [16:23] ardchoille: so I can't scroll eh? [16:25] So I'm looking to install Kubuntu 7.10 on some new partitions I've created. I just encrypted them all first with cryptsetup, including swap, but left a 1GB partition unencrypted for /boot. I already made the filesystem for all the partitions as well, used ext3 except used swap of course for the swap partition. Now I've double clicked the "install" to start the graphical installer. I'm at the prepare partitions part and I'm not sur [16:25] e what to do now, how to use my already created partitions. If I assign mount points to them, I have to select a filesystem, and this ends up checking the "format" box, which is uncheckable thereafter [16:25] BluesKaj: this snddevices script is impossible to find [16:27] sounds like some old tool. thats not used any more. [16:28] compu73rg33k what do you mean by 'use' ? you can easially mount allready made partitions to Other 'non system' places and not format them. [16:28] but the install will want to format / and swap and perhaos some other spots [16:28] I think i got the snddevices script [16:28] how do I run it [16:28] You dont normally install 'over' your old / and so forth [16:28] How can I have two taskbars for my dual screen setup, one for each screen, which only displays the applications currently on that screen? [16:28] chmod +x ./snddevics ./snddevces [16:28] Rebelyouth: You could use the panel instead (F9) [16:28] I have already enabled twinview and the restricted drivers [16:29] Dr_Willis: thank you [16:29] Shapeshifter not sure the kde panels applicaions panel. has that feature [16:29] timri: yessss [16:29] timri: d.. i forgot F9 [16:30] timri: I hope in kde4 somebody fix this problem [16:30] anyone here familiar with kfilereplace ? [16:30] timri: tnx [16:30] Shapeshifter you may try the 'only show apps on current desktop' setting (i think) Been ages since ive explored the kde tools [16:30] Dr_Willis, yes, but I'm looking to do a fresh install on these encrypted partitions. I've partitioned so that I have a root, usr, home, and swap partition, all encrypted. I also have a 1GB unencrypted boot partition. I'm just wondering how to go about this grahpical installer to use these encrypted partitions b/c at hte partition manager, it doesn't have a filesystem attached to the partitiosn and if I give it one then it's going [16:30] to reformat it [16:30] Rebelyouth: You're welcome [16:30] timri: i can remove the bookmark menu? [16:30] I just want it to USE the partitions, not do any partitioning for me. heh. [16:31] compu73rg33k they allredy got system data on them? [16:31] Nope, fresh install Dr_Willis [16:31] <|dthacker|> hi channel, I finally got around to updating my desktop, and the kubuntu installer is not finding any disks at step 4 of 6. Seems to be a bit lost. Any tips? [16:31] Rebelyouth: Iam not sure (anyway, that should be done by editing some rc file [16:31] timri: mmmhhh [16:31] Rebelyouth: I useually browse without menu (Ctrl+M) === travis_ is now known as RLoggia [16:31] So its asking to format 'empty' partitions. :) I though the instller could set up encrypted filesstems. Ive never used that feature - so not sure what things to watch out for, [16:32] Dr_Willis: Thanks, I found that option, it worked [16:32] I have a Logitech MX518 mouse, but i cannot use all of it's buttons in kubuntu 7.10. Anyone know of a guide i could follow? [16:32] Dr_Willis: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedFilesystemsInstaller [16:33] encrypted filesystem for the truely paranoid. [16:33] does compiz get installed by default in kubuntu? [16:33] The easy way would be to let the installer format/encrypt/set them up. :) [16:33] livingdaylight No. [16:33] !compiz [16:33] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default.

[16:34] whats the command to make a backup of your xserver-xorg conf? [16:34] hi [16:34] ardchoille: You mean the usefulness ? If so, you evidently haven't got your laptop stolen yet. [16:34] Well it doesn't look like the kubuntu 7.10 has encryption built in [16:34] RLoggia: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup [16:35] unlike the ubuntu 7.10, at least I heard it has that [16:35] 've got kubuntu 7.10 but there isn't compiz-fusion... why?

The online resource says compile the modules with make modules and make modules_install. I was wondering, is there a way to generate the .ko file for JUST the patched bcm43xx and not everything? [16:36] anyone using ATI graphics? [16:37] timri: emails you can't control, the email server itself can be hacked.. account passwords should be memorised. [16:37] So there's no way of bypassing the partitioner setup on the graphical installer? [16:38] RLoggia, what's yer question about ati ? [16:39] i need help installing java on kubuntu 7.10 can somebody guide me threw it [16:40] k5ubuntu i normally install the kubuntu-restricted-extras package.

HOWEVER.. ati released new linux drivers after gutsy was released.. so they are looking better. [16:49] it been 2 year i have been using kubuntu but never had such problem [16:49] hmmm [16:49] its saysThere was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages. [16:49] OuZo i dont use any ati cards any more. So i dont know what fix's are needed for their newer cards === theking is now known as Theking === Theking is now known as TheKing [16:49] thanks Dr_Willis [16:49] BluesKaj: you have 3D rendering working on 7.10?

Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages. [16:51] posingaspopular: or useful :) [16:52] did you get that RLoggia? [16:52] OuZo Its just some of the quirks with ati drivers from what i gather. May be some easy fix. But I dont mess with ati any more.. and proberly wont for a long time [16:52] did you get that RLoggia? [16:53] <|dthacker|> hi, trying to debug install problems.

I use it like apt-get [17:00] like remove 300 packages.. then reinstall them [17:00] that reminds me, I need to get this box to auto-dhcp [17:00] having to enter it manually is ok, but a bit annoying [17:01] <|dthacker|> goes to burn an alternate install CD [17:01] Dr_Willis: That was a looong time ago, right?

[17:29] eljefe_, try launching it from the konsole ...check the output errors [17:30] why not make kubuntu a little more like pclos for eg, with konqueror as dedicated file manager and firefox as default web browser.. much more clean and tidy [17:30] ~/.bashrc for colour; you have to comment out (add a #) like 5 lines, and uncomment (remove the #) another set of lines. Its documented in there, if you read it you'll see. [17:30] <|dthacker|> ok, here goes with the alternat install CD. Wish me luck. [17:30] i can't seem to install an iso here on k3b [17:31] livingdaylight: install an ISO on k3b?? [17:31] livingdaylight: 1. Kubuntu doesn't want to be like PCLOS. 2.

[17:31] when can i see the even faster and even more better looking kde4 update in my kubuntu? [17:31] hey everyone! [17:31] does anyone care to help me with my kwin --replace issue? [17:31] * |dthacker| glares at his hardware [17:32] timri: thanks for trying I left for a moment to fix myself some lunch [17:32] FisherPrice: what's the problem? [17:32] ty Jucato [17:32] eljefe_, did you install k9copy with a pkg manager or the cli ? [17:32] FisherPrice: Care, yes. Able, no :( [17:32] (not that I can help 100%) [17:32] Cobalt: ah, ok [17:32] Hi, I'm trying to install a theme and I run into this problem. when I run make I get this error at the end. Nothing to be done for `all-am' [17:32] BluesKaj: adept [17:32] sup3rw0p: what theme are you trying to install? [17:32] actually with the CLI [17:32] domino [17:32] juc I've just tried compiz-fusion and want to replace kwin.. but it crashes X and get compiz back [17:33] BluesKaj: with the CLI, I had a list of packages and installed it with "sudo apt-get install < packages.txt" [17:33] Jucato:not about being like pclos exactly, but just an example where they strike a balance to give a clean overall look... Keeping Konqueror as default file manager still showcases Konqueror... but Konqueror overwhelm i'm not sure appeals to anyone in the 21 Century for desktop market... imho... but devs know best [17:33] sup3rw0p: I believe there's a .deb Domino package for Kubuntu. use that instead [17:33] eljefe_: yes an iso in k3b [17:33] FisherPrice: and "kwin --replace" doesn't work? [17:33] Jucato: I duno if it's a compiz issue or a kwin issue [17:34] livingdaylight: but you don't install ISOs with k3b; you don'ty install ISOs really at all, you burn ISOs and then install from the CD... [17:34] Jucato: no, it just crashes X [17:34] kwin almost never crashes. I bet it's a compiz issue [17:34] hmm it seems to work for me [17:34] eljefe_: yes, of course... [17:34] FisherPrice: might want to ask in #compiz-fusion [17:34] Jucato: ty, i didn't know the irc addy [17:34] by the way thanks i did not know i could run compiz on kubuntu also [17:34] timri: thanks, thats what my gentoo looked like [17:34] ok livingdaylight so you want to burn an ISO? what happens when you right-click the ISO and select "Burn CD with K3b" ? [17:34] !compiz | flick [17:34] eljefe_: cant burn kubuntu iso... i think my current kubuntu cd is faulty [17:34] flick: 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 [17:35] flick: ya u can... but i think it's got problem [17:35] I know it shouldn't make any diff whetrher you use adept apt or synaptic ., the repos are all the same , but I wonder about the install process in adept , sometimes [17:35] flick: just make sure that u have your system backed up [17:35] BluesKaj: Adept uses apt [17:35] OuZo: I always have my windows maximized, no border, no menu, overlapping kicker [17:35] yes [17:35] BluesKaj: so you think i should reinstall with Adept? or you think Adept is worse? [17:35] FisherPrice, ahh... i've seen ur problem, but i just did kwin --replace (before posting the previous comment) and it seems to work fine [17:35] I'm aware of that [17:35] * |dthacker| mumbles phrases not appropriate for kubuntu, becuase his install hung disk detection. [17:35] FisherPrice: do you have desktop icons turned off? [17:35] hey all, has anyone else had problems with USB keyboards and (K)Ubuntu since updating to 7.10? My keyboard keeps cutting in and out [17:36] FisherPrice, i installed compiz-kde and emerald too btw [17:36] OuZo: that way, I can bring up the taskbar by yanking my mouse to the leftbottom corner of the screen [17:36] eljefe_: it check md5sum but it still says cd rom is empty [17:36] nosrednaekim: no, i have desktop icons [17:36] flick: yah i have them too [17:36] livingdaylight: can you try a different CD? [17:36] sorry i did compiz --replace [17:36] flick: lol [17:36] <|dthacker|> how long should text install take to detect a disk? [17:37] well... let me try kwin --replace [17:37] eljefe_, the cli /apt & aptitude seems to do better with some video apps [17:37] <|dthacker|> good grief, it can't find it. [17:37] eljefe_: the cd is fine, when i first put it in it was detected but i chose ignoer because it only offered to open k3b for data or audio and since iwanted to burn iso(image) i ckicked ignore [17:37] well, i used the CLI apt-get so i guess I should be 'safe' [17:37] yup [17:37] hrmmm [17:37] i filed a bug report but no action yet, its been a few days [17:38] yup [17:38] it works [17:38] :( [17:38] eljefe_, k9copy was clunky on feisty , but i find it works better on gutsy [17:38] ok so livingdaylight, try to remove the CD and close k3b; then put the CD in and select Audio or whatever, and then try to do it in k3b with the menu [17:38] i'll wander over to the compiz chanel [17:38] I have a partition, ext3, that does not show any directories when I ls. Is it possible they are still there, but I did something wrong? [17:38] ok, this is odd [17:38] hi what is the difference between cd and dvd images of kubuntu? [17:39] donsdw: is it possible that the partition didn't mount into the dir? [17:39] I run a configure script and it says that the c compiler cannot create executeables [17:39] <|dthacker|> ok, both live cd and alternate cd fail to detect hd. Hd is working on another distro. What should I try next? [17:39] ???? [17:39] donsdw, what does ls -a show [17:39] |dthacker|: Does it see the HD controller? [17:39] Downix: installed build-essentials ? [17:39] Does anyone know a good place to get support on keyboard issues maybe? [17:39] eljefe_: did that too... again go through the process as it checks sum but it still says: 'please insert an empty cdblah blah' [17:39] does kcron use a config file or does it edit the crontab directly? [17:39] <|dthacker|> Downix: how can I tell? [17:40] BluesKaj: ok so k9copy crashed again; the CLI is filled with VOBU: Read Error!!! (VOBU : 1313496 Read Error !!!! ==> 1313940) [17:40] timri: Doh! Knew I forgot something [17:40] i need help with choosing the right iso-file [17:40] |dthacker|: Is your HD on the same controller as your CD-ROM? [17:40] wow, k9copy looks so much better than dvd::rip [17:40] rickympl: if it did have a config file, it would be in ~/.kde/share [17:40] livingdaylight: no idea then, that is odd. Just for giggles, have you tried a different CD? Are you using a DVD when it needs a CD? [17:40] eljefe_, does k3b read the dvd? [17:41] eljefe_, flick: ls -a shows many hidden directories and Desktop. [17:41] <|dthacker|> Downix: unknown, will have to reboot to find out. [17:41] hi ive update my feisty to gutsy now the schortcut Fn+F10/F11 for Display Brightness doesnt work. but gutsy must recognize it native on my lenovo n100 [17:41] BluesKaj: yeah K3b can see it [17:41] eljefe_: i wish ... but alas no... [17:42] eljefe_: thx anyways.. [17:42] hi what is the difference between cd and dvd images of kubuntu? [17:42] eljefe_: there's something wrong with this install hence why i'm trying to burn a new kubuntu to cd [17:42] |dthacker|: Is it IDE, ATA, SATA, RAID or SCSI? [17:42] |dthacker|: or SAS, almost forgot that one [17:42] donsdw, if it is mounted on the directory you do ls -l, then that's what u got in the ext3. to see if it is mounted, type cat /etc/mtab [17:42] livingdaylight: a reboot perhaps? :( i know, its a Windows-type fix, but it worked for an issue I had last night, so its worth a shot i guess... [17:43] eljefe_, uninstall k9copy , reboot, sudo apt-get update and reinstall it [17:43] eh.. ok [17:43] timri: it cannot find any package or instructions for that. [17:43] eljefe_: i suppose, sheesh... i hoped kubuntu would be more stable than that though [17:43] use the cli , eljefe_ [17:43] nosrednaekim:> ok thx, found a config file but its only pertinent to general options like window size, what i'm looking for is the tasks itself, maybe it doesnt save that info in another file other than the cron file [17:43] livingdaylight: agreed [17:44] flick: I was afraid of that. It's mounted, but all directories are gone. [17:44] livingdaylight, eljefe_: agreed, waiting eagerly for KDE 4 [17:44] hello, [17:44] Downix: ?? [17:44] non so come funziona quest'affare. qualcuno mi legge ? [17:44] flick: At least they are not showing up. [17:44] rickympl: should be in share/apps [17:44] after many sys upgrades a lot of kernels were installed [17:44] flick: also waiting but its not going to bring stability improvements, especially for kde 4.0... [17:44] eljefe_: pls can u pm me with your color part of .bashrc - mine is empty [17:44] how to remove unneeded kernels? [17:44] flick: kde 4.1 maybe... everyone says kd34 is not gonna be all that [17:44] donsdw, how could that be, did you do an rm * .*? [17:44] OuZo: certainly... just a moment [17:45] OuZo: that means it is using the system .bashrc but i'll get you my onw, one moment [17:45] Downix: you mean like aptitude install build-essential ? [17:46] flick: I am capable of doing that. :( [17:46] ma se volessi parlare con qualcuno, come dovrei fare ? [17:46] livingdaylight, eljefe_: yeah, i had a few problems, but i have fixed some of them and sent the patch in the KDE4 trunk, so hopefully they will be comitted in that release [17:46] !it [17:46] Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! [17:47] donsdw, if u or somebody inadvertantly deleted it from the GUI, it should be there in the Trash [17:48] timri: right [17:48] OuZo: http://pastebin.ca/759973 that is the default .bashrc, the only change being to make bash in colour. save it in your home as .bashrc [17:48] livingdaylight, eljefe_: also i know of several developers who are holding the fixes for KDE4! [17:48] Downix: I take it, it is working now? [17:48] flick: I can't blame anyone else. I think I looked in Trash. /tmp/Trash? But that is at leat a ray of hope. Thanks! [17:48] superfluous comma guy strikes, again [17:48] nosrednaekim:> no luck, i did a fresh install of kubuntu backing up my /home, thinking that kcron would have such a file, but it seems it doenst, thx for your help [17:49] timri: trying it again incase I misspelled it [17:49] flick: Oh wait, no /tmp either. :( [17:49] Downix: I added an s initially [17:49] eljefe_: um that paste doesnt load for me, it the url correct? [17:49] rickympl: ah... kron probably does save to the crontab [17:50] that did it [17:50] 8) [17:50] yeah... pastebin kinda stinks some times tho [17:50] <|dthacker|> Downix: Disk Drive is /dev/hda, how can I find the device the CDROM is attached at? [17:50] where can I get dvddecss, i wonder if that is the issue for k9copy [17:50] nosrednaekim:> right, next time ill know better [17:50] thanks [17:50] donsdw, no /tmp ?! [17:51] eljefe_, libdvdcss2 ? [17:51] aki eh br? [17:51] |dthacker|: should be /dev/sd or dev/cd [17:51] donsdw, i am really sorry... but if you are sure that the files have been deleted you can try the "unrm" command [17:51] flick: Not is this partition. I still have my Kubuntu partition. [17:51] NP [17:51] OuZo: try again? it loaded for me, but not always... [17:51] BluesKaj: yeah [17:51] donsdw, it can be installed as "sudo apt-get install tct" [17:51] eljefe_: no its just blank [17:52] helppppppppppp [17:52] i tried to install kwin-style-metal4kde , but it wants some dependecies. kdelibs4 , i got kde 3.5.7 is that a problem ? [17:52] well its there man :( lemme see if i can put it elsewhere [17:52] where to go to get the image files for this virtual machine ? [17:52] but it can be hard to use. [17:52] samuk1: whaaaaat [17:52] samuk1: F1 [17:52] eljefe_, it's in the restricted debs , check yer source.list to uncomment them [17:52] hmmm i though ti w as fully open for all of those... [17:52] |dthacker|: any sign? [17:53] flick: I don't know what tct is, but I will look it up. Thanks for your help. [17:53] irc brasileiro?!? [17:53] eljefe_: can you please paste it here? http://pastebin.div0.co.za/ [17:53] !br [17:53] Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [17:53] donsdw, tct is a package of forensic related utilities [17:53] <|dthacker|> Downix: CD is on /dev/hdc, so a different controller, I think [17:53] what is channel br?!? [17:53] !br [17:53] Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [17:53] eljefe_, you still have to install it yourself [17:54] |dthacker|: no, same controller. Likely the second channel on a PATA or IDE controller. [17:54] all of my repos are open3ed up and its not showing on the Adept list [17:54] flick: Oh. Install and then maybe unrm will help? [17:54] !br [17:54] thx [17:54] |dthacker|: ok, can you fdisk the HD? [17:54] donsdw, maybe... just may be! [17:54] samuk1: :) [17:54] <|dthacker|> Downix: isn't it hda/b hdac/d? [17:55] eljefe_, did you update the repos ? [17:55] ubotu: where can I get image files for other OSs ? [17:55] BluesKaj: nope, default, and i did add medibuntu tho [17:55] Cobalt: ubotu is a bot [17:55] OuZo: http://pastebin.div0.co.za/results/E2BG71752.html [17:55] flick: Another ray of hope. Thanks again! [17:55] |dthacker|: Most PATA have hda/b on the first channel and hdc/d on the second. And most onboard controllers have 2 channels. [17:55] ! not ready...=/ [17:55] Sorry, I don't know anything about not ready...=/ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [17:55] Cobalt: distrowatch.com [17:55] !br not ready... [17:55] Sorry, I don't know anything about br not ready... - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [17:56] timri: thanks [17:56] timri: u got to love it when people thingk the boto is real [17:56] eagles0513875: hehe, happened to me as well [17:56] thanks eljefe_ [17:56] eljefe_, do the source-o-matic thing to regenerate your sources.list [17:56] no prob [17:56] BluesKaj: "Package libdvdcss2 is not available, but is referred to by another package." [17:56] timri: happened to me in the beginning too lol [17:58] eljefe_, http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/ [17:58] <|dthacker|> Downix: I've verified that CDROM and HD are on separate ide ports on MB [17:58] yeah i am there [17:58] nbot many options tho! [18:00] whats the command line way to search the apt-get database, like emerge -S in gentoo? thanks [18:00] BluesKaj: same message, not available but referred to by another package [18:00] OuZo: apt-cache search [18:00] OuZo: sudo apt-cache searc _packagename_ [18:00] thanks [18:00] OuZo: sudo apt-cache search _packagename_ [18:00] eljefe_: no need for sudo [18:00] oh? cool. [18:01] **sees what else is missing to get AROS to build [18:02] algum br aki... no outro ninguem ajuda [18:02] eljefe_, you have to add some of the nonstd repos to get the libdvdcss2 app [18:03] i need permison to acess hda5... only root can... [18:03] Downix: you mean like http://aros.sourceforge.net/documentation/developers/compiling.php#getting-the-needed-packages [18:03] I wait for ALSA driver 1.0.15 for long, but its Ubuntu package doesn't come out [18:03] BluesKaj: i thought so also but not seeing them; all my repos are commented out. [18:03] rathe, are NOT commented out [18:04] carbon_monoxide: yeah, i feel like a lot of apps weren't updated. Create a bur report/wish. [18:05] carbon_monoxide: thats about the best we can do i think, or compile it yourself [18:05] :(] [18:05] eljefe_: compiling it does no good :( [18:07] eljefe_: so you have to compile the next release yourself if you compile the current one [18:08] carbon_monoxide: correct. and you get constant bugging about reverting back to the official one, so each update forces you to unselect your manually-compiled apps... its a pain, agreed. [18:08] eljefe_: isn't that the charm of Debian and Ubuntu as "aptitude install" can do the whole works? [18:09] eljefe_, I'm using the 64 bit repos , but i also have 32bit apps enabled , maybe these might conatian the file: http://www.pastebin.ca/759998 [18:09] with Debian, for sure. *buntu isn';t so handy IMHO. but i don't really know anything about aptitude itself, only apt-get. i hear aptitude is better somehow tho [18:09] does kubuntu do anything to the default kdm config? (i try to add a session by copying /usr/share/xsessions/kde.desktop to kde4.desktop and change some path's, but the new session doesn't appear in kdm) [18:09] how can i change the size of the subtitles in Kaffeine player? [18:10] Goliath23: have you restarted kdm? [18:10] should be fine (works here) [18:10] aptitude uninstalls take out unrequired dependencies [18:10] BluesKaj: same error, referred but not found :( [18:10] allright all, thanks for the help but i have to go now, see yas later! [18:10] BluesKaj: you can do that with apt-get autoremove [18:11] Well, I just survived my dist-upgrade (just). [18:11] did you apt-get update after adding the repos [18:11] hi, how do I get more fonts for my machine [18:11] search for 'font' in Adept and install them [18:12] jpatrick, autoremove takes out apps that you need in my experience , especially xorg editsd [18:12] ok see yas [18:12] flick: i've sorted my problem out with compiz... i had to completely unintall it :( [18:12] jpatrick: yes, of course [18:12] ya know, this x86-centric nature of program-makers really ticks me off [18:12] FisherPrice: and reinstall? [18:12] Downix: explain [18:12] eljefe_, the app should be there [18:13] well i'm dling the latest version, gunna try to compile it [18:13] timri: Well, Flash was designed to be able to be run from any system... but then Adobe cans the non-x86/PPC Linux ports.... [18:13] FisherPrice, i have completely uninstalled it too - seems it doesn't flash your taskbar for programs like Konversation or Kopete! [18:14] Downix: ah, ok [18:14] BluesKaj: Agreed but it isn't, today at least... now that i think about it, my "sudo apt-get install flick: nosrednaekim i think i might try a different ui with it... a friend has got it up and running nice in something else.. can't remember what [18:14] why did kubntu sticked to the gimp release candidate version? will it be updated in the repos any time soon? [18:15] FisherPrice, and no body seems to be able to point a direction on which direction i should look, atleast superficially there's no way to fix it - and i am too tired to look into compiz-fusion code today [18:15] FisherPrice, for me it works with Gnome properly though [18:15] harmental: security updates only, I think [18:15] too bad Gnome belongs to my past. [18:15] i have a feeling that Compiz is made to be much more Gnome compatible [18:15] eljefe_, i concur [18:15] * Rebelyouth [18:16] timri: what do you mean? we should stick to a RC?? === Rebelyouth is now known as Rebelyouth|NotHe [18:16] which toi me means its unusable; plus KWin has too many benefits for me [18:16] flick: lol yah i might use it once in a while... it's more pretty than functional atm [18:16] harmental: or wait 6 months for 8.04 to come out [18:16] flick: would be nice to show my friends and ask "Does WinXP or Vista do this?" [18:17] FisherPrice, i can understand and empathasize! [18:17] timri: its weird....why would they freeze a package that is rc? [18:17] harmental: the better question would be: why would they include it? [18:17] flick: it's good though I do like the way Linux had advanced. :D [18:18] because 2.4 has a FINAL version... [18:19] flick, the word is empathize not empathasize you moron! === Moonra is now known as Necrobyte [18:19] flick, oh sorry [18:19] FisherPrice: I've used Linux since '95 or so [18:19] ok, need to find pngtopnm for Ubuntu now [18:19] <|dthacker|> Downix: I have no way to change BIOS settings for the hard drive, now grasping at straws and trying an Ubuntu disk. [18:19] Downix: '95, hrm yah i think i was about that time too [18:20] Downix: though only in ernest from about 2002 [18:20] |dthacker|: Which northbridge do you run? [18:21] FisherPrice: Slackware 3.0! [18:21] <|dthacker|> Downix: I have no idea. How can I tell? [18:21] Downix: packages.ubuntu.com [18:21] How can I set auto net connection (adsl) in a moment when I login ? [18:21] timri: just seeing which module has it included [18:22] Downix: you can find that out on packages.ubuntu.com [18:22] Downix: Caldera Linux was first, I think RH 6.2 [18:22] |dthacker|: That is really something you should have known from the day you boughty it. Check your BIOS is my guess [18:22] followed quick after [18:22] Downix: "search the contents of packages" [18:22] what happens if i change my repos to hardy??? [18:23] Downix: which brand heater coil does your toaster use? really you don't know? you should have known that since the day you bought it. lol ;) [18:23] |dthacker|: you can ussually tell with a lspci [18:24] guys I really got tired, I need to install font called bank gothic and I dont know how or what to do, help please [18:24] * flick deep dives into compiz code [18:25] newguyss: in control center "system administration" then "font installer" [18:26] timri: where is system administration? [18:27] newguyss: Alt+F2 then kcontrol [18:27] why kcontrol is not on the menu is just strange [18:28] Can I set auto connection on net at startup ? [18:28] what copies and paste in shell?!? [18:28] supert0ne1: Because kubuntu thinks the new settings manager is easier :( [18:29] timri: thanks, do I have to go find the font on the net first? [18:29] samuk1: I use the mouse [18:29] how* [18:29] meaning less useful in my opinion [18:29] no... copies and paste folder [18:29] all the good options are hidden and tier design is pretty efficient [18:29] newguyss: Err, yeah, at fonts.com its 102 dollar [18:30] supert0ne1: Yeah, I prefer kcontrol [18:30] hello === SudoSu is now known as SudoKing [18:30] samuk1: select the text right click in the selection, and copy [18:30] <|dthacker|> nosrednaekim: on the northbridge question, please see http://pastebin.com/m757dee98 [18:30] samuk1: to paste, use shift+insert [18:31] no is text is folder [18:31] now, time to learn how to create a SPARC header so I can compile this app....

[18:34] might want to google that [18:34] Downix: As soon as the OLPC comes to europe, I will have a non-x86 machine too [18:35] timri: OLPC is x86. === ubuntu_ is now known as jb44 [18:35] timri: It uses a Geode, which is a renamed MediaGX CPU, the last of the Cyrix 6x86 CPU's. [18:35] hello [18:36] hello [18:36] Downix: oops, never knew that the Geodes were x86 [18:36] timri: My ex-fiance worked for NatSemi when they owned Cyrix. She got to see the first Geode/MediaGX's come off the assembly line. [18:37] Downix: My router is certainly non x86, does that count :) [18:37] I still can't believe I picked up a SPARC for $50. 8) [18:37] dd-wrt? [18:38] supert0ne1: nope [18:38] Downix: Holy cow! [18:38] i was skeptical of dd-wrt but after using it for a few months i couldn't live without it [18:39] what is dd-wrt? [18:40] i just downloaded some themes from kde-look , but the files are inside a gz, so i cant open them from the theme manager, how do i install those themes? [18:40] supert0ne1: I have a dg834gv2, and it runs great as-is. (Texas Instruments AR7 proc) [18:40] Alarm: and if you doubleclick in the filemanager, it opens Ark? [18:41] timri: barebones Ultra 5's and 10's are cheap. They lack integrated DMA controllers so they go for really cheap. [18:41] yeap [18:41] and i can see many folders in it [18:41] like buttons arrows and stuff like that [18:41] Downix: Shipping them to france kinda sucks tough>) [18:42] timri: Buy em from Germany or France then. France was Sun's #4 customer. [18:42] Alarm: you could extract that gz file (it is like a zip) [18:42] i know i can extract that, thats not the problem [18:42] the point is i dont know how to set it up :) [18:42] Downix: We use and re-use ad infinitum here, hence prices are somewhat less friendly [18:43] Alarm: And if you point the theme manager to the extracted files? [18:43] doesnt work [18:43] it cant locate any .theme file [18:43] Alarm: ah, ok [18:45] timri: Hmm, dangit. I still hope the SPARC S1 ships soon tho. Embeddable 64-bit multi-threaded SPARC core [18:45] Downix: yeah, sun sells some great hardware (and software) [18:46] timri: who mentioned Sun? SPARC is a licenseable architecture, there are more makers than just Sun out there. [18:46] timri: did you know that half of the CPU's in Sun boxes are made by Fuji? [18:46] Downix: true, I was just drooling over the ultra 45 workstation, so... [18:47] Downix: didnt know that, but it's not really a surprise [18:47] Timri: I tinker with hardware designs. Trying to make a more cost-friendly version. [18:48] Downix: cool [18:48] timri: http://www.opensparc.net if you want to look at the source of the T1. [18:48] Downix: been there, done that :) [18:49] timri: Basically my thought was to drop it to a single core paired with a DDR2 controller, FPU, and put it on a Hypertransport bus, so you can use commodity chipsets such as those from VIA or nVidia. [18:49] timri: A bit rusty on the verilog, though [18:49] timri: in theory [18:49] timri: Same here, was always a VHDL man myself [18:50] * timri changes topic to: Hi, welcome to #kubuntu, feel free to drop by and discuss the merits ov verilog and VHDL [18:50] heh [18:51] brb [18:51] linux is sick on battery life for lappys. I just ran my computer for almost 4 hours using wireless internet and browseing the web [18:51] pretty sick. windows gives me about 2 hours [18:51] kubuntunewbie: is that good? [18:52] oh... ah... so sick=awesome [18:52] :D [18:52] haha, yes [18:52] timri: my thought was to get a basic design working first, then expand it to 2 cores + FPU + DSP functions. That way you can make a more entry-level workstation that should perform similarly to an Athlon x2 without the legacy crap. 8) [18:54] hello the problem I have is that the MY Shared Folder on a fat32 partition isnt recognised properly so I cant change the permissions on it single word named folders work great [18:54] I'm getting this error with adept saying the database is locked...how should i fix this? [18:54] Downix: explain how "VIA or nVidia" is being "without legacy crap" [18:54] can change permissions on them no problem [18:54] foxhound31: But it worked earlier for you with My Documents [18:55] foxhound31: fat doesn't support permissions [18:55] timri: most of that legacy is in the northbridge, which is onboard the CPU in this case. All you'd be getting from VIA/nVidia is the southern-half of the equasion, over HT. [18:55] bassmac: that means something else is using apt, are you installing/upgrading something in a different window / comand prompt? [18:55] no... [18:55] I just booted [18:55] timri: while some legacy there, a lot less than before [18:56] Downix: ok, true. You would need specs though [18:56] nosrednaekm yeah thats right [18:56] I would, but one step at a time. [18:56] ahh dont know what the problem is [18:57] bizarre [18:57] tlmrl yeah that was an ntfs [18:57] partition [18:58] amule keeps saying I need to change permissions on that folder [18:58] bassmac: in a comand prompt go 'ps -aux|grep apt' [18:58] I did a dpkg --configure -a [18:58] hi is it possible to reconfigure my ubuntu automatic? [18:58] which is why I'm confused since fat32 doesnt have permissions [18:58] foxhound31: Ah, and fat32 doesnt support that [18:58] I had to do something from a previous install I guess === warren_ is now known as TheWozA [18:59] cause i updated my feisty to gutsy and now displaybrightness doesnt work, but it schould automatically do on my laptop [18:59] Hello, how do I unmount partitions in KDE? [18:59] timri: it's just an object lesson for me, and as it'll be gpl'd, maybe someone will use it [19:00] Downix: great! Do you have a site so that us mere mortals can check on you progress ? [19:00] Nowhere to put one atm [19:00] had a spot I never used then let it lapse [19:01] plan b now that I can get linux to work the way I like I will migrate everything and change the partitions to linux ones that should solve all my problems [19:01] foxhound31: yep [19:01] timri: the irony as I work for a web company... 8) [19:01] Downix: hehe [19:02] plus there is a util for windows that can recognise linux partitions should i ever need to do that [19:02] How do I unmount partitions in KDE? [19:02] foxhound31: wouldn't recommend it. Windows likes corrupting the filesystems [19:03] Downix: ?? the ext2 ifs ?? [19:03] what is it called kcontrol? i can't find it in kbfx menu or even when i do alt+space [19:03] anyone remember the name of the program that monitors your internet usage and docks in the "system tray" of KDE? [19:03] Downix thanks for that I'll only use it for emergency [19:03] i think it was called something like knet..... [19:03] livingdaylight: Alt+F2 kcontrol [19:03] timri: tried ext2 for Win and it corrupted my gentoo install === niclas is now known as nicboi23 [19:04] livingdaylight: You could also add it to your kmenu manually (right click, edit menu, insert item, kcontrol) [19:04] timri: wonder why when i did at+space it didn't come up?? [19:04] anyway great help channel [19:04] timri: thx [19:04] Downix: weird, never heard of that before [19:04] hey guys im using a ATI radeon card and im wondering what video drivers i should use [19:04] think kubuntu in this version really is consumer linux i havent had to touch the command line much at all [19:05] timri: now, Windows corrupted it's own filesystem a month later, so it's as likely to be windows fault as anything, but it made me gunshy [19:05] brilliant effort [19:05] are you going to run compiz? [19:05] TheWozA: Which Radeon? [19:05] see you [19:05] foxhound31: i agree, i recently made the switch and kept windows shitsa on my computer.... I have not touched winblows once since i put kubuntu on. [19:05] Downix: hw problem? [19:05] Q. Since I uped to gutsey my system is about 25% slower where do I look? === miaviator is now known as t00lzf0nt [19:06] spingwerd: are u using a lappy? [19:06] nope [19:06] spingwerd: no clue then. sorry [19:07] spingwerd: strigid indexing? [19:07] ah could be === t00lzf0nt is now known as miaviator278 [19:07] timri: hwo do I check [19:07] 9800 pro [19:08] daemon is not running [19:08] Alt+F2 konsole [19:08] spingwerd: then: top [19:08] TheWozA: The proprietory ATI drivers. [19:09] timri: windows update was run w/o authority (the stealth update) and lost power in the middle. Caused a serious problem as it killed part of the HAL for HD controll [19:09] timri: not on the top list [19:09] spingwerd: mmm, I have no idea what it could be then [19:09] dopez: but they wont work with any beryl stuff corredc? [19:10] Hi, how do I unmount partitions? [19:10] Downix: I have still one Xp laptop here, (because I cant get suspend/resume right) it is a maintenance nightmare [19:10] Downix i have these drivers but how do you run a .run file :S [19:10] hi.i have dapper drake and i want to upgrade my distro to feisty..what do i need to do? [19:10] I try to make my HP LaserJet M1005 MFP SCAN with Kooka - doesn't work! (printing with the same device works) Any ideas? [19:11] sysnemo: fresh install [19:11] is there n command [19:11] ? [19:11] sysnemo: dapper->feisty is not supported in one step === ola_ is now known as Aartix003 [19:11] a ok [19:11] TheWozA: cant you open the repositorys and add that way [19:11] so can i install beryl on dapper? [19:11] ill try [19:11] sysnemo: havent got a clue [19:11] timri: I have one XP machine, and as soon as I can get my MMO to run w/o issue on Linux, bye-bye. [19:11] ok..thank u [19:11] sysnemo: dapper > feisty > gutsey [19:12] TheWozA: chmod +x (the file) [19:12] spingwerd: In theory that works.... have seen some depressingly bad results though [19:12] Downix: whats a MMO? [19:13] timri: worked for me but I wouldnt use the propierty cand do 3d [19:13] kubuntunewbie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MMO [19:14] do you still have to turn on DMA in gutsey? [19:14] Downix: what game is it? do you know if its possible to get everquest to work on linux? [19:14] How do I get a HP LaserJet M1005 MFP scan with Kooka? (printing with the same device works) Any ideas? [19:15] Anyone? QtParted says my partition is busy but how do I stop it? [19:15] spingwerd: sudo hdparm -i /dev/hdc tells me it is turned on by default [19:16] i have the nvidia 6800gt, is there something better that is in price range of $100 and is agp? [19:16] ArPharazon: sudo umount (partition) === bmk789_ is now known as bmk789 [19:16] drarem, the 7600 GT should be about that price, and is much better... [19:16] timri: Anyway to do it from the GUI? [19:17] ArPharazon: I have no idea. [19:17] ok thanks [19:17] can anyone recomend a PCI wireless card that will interact well with linux and work on a 500 mhz p3 compaq [19:17] ... [19:18] is there a gui to mount disks? [19:18] kubuntunewbie: PCI wireless is almost certainly 2.0 or up, does your compaq support those? [19:18] timri: no clue, what do u mean 2.0 or up? [19:18] kubuntunewbie: pci 2.0 [19:18] kubuntunewbie: older motherboards do not support it [19:19] timri: ahh, good question, do you know how i would check? it was made in 1999 and is p3 === andrea is now known as ndrea [19:19] kubuntunewbie: robably not [19:19] spingwerd: There are twi `mount` options in Storage Media, but they both give me crazy errors. [19:20] *two [19:20] does that mean i am SOL when it comes to geting a PCI wireless card? [19:20] How do I make a HP LaserJet M1005 MFP scan (feisty)? [19:20] ArPharazon: what program [19:20] kubuntunewbie: very likely [19:20] Anyone sync PDA, Avantgo with Kpilot? [19:20] timri: so my only option would be USB? that would suck, i hate USB wireless devices. [19:21] spingwerd: Dolphin, I suppose. [19:21] kubuntunewbie: dunno, no experience with those [19:22] ArPharazon: other idsk isnt listed in storage media [19:22] christiane: Perhaps: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-LaserJet_1005 === german is now known as bufalo [19:23] timri: thanx, I'll try [19:23] spingwerd: What do you mean? [19:23] christiane: Good luck (it's way out of my area of competence :( ) [19:23] Kpilot, dont have conduit to Avantgo, exist a lib, but not in Kubuntu or ubuntu repositories [19:23] ArPharazon: the device /dev/sda1 isnt listed in storage media [19:24] The PDA work fine with Kpilot and integration with Kontact, only te Avantgo conduit [19:24] christiane: ohoh, according to http://hplip.sourceforge.net/supported_devices/unsupported.html it wont work... at all :( [19:25] spingwerd: Well, it is for me. I have 3 disks listed there, which makes sense as I have three partitions. I'm running from the livecd, maybe it's that? [19:25] Hi! The screensaver does not start, when I lock the screen. How can I change that behaviour? [19:27] Mac40DO, are you running Compiz-Fusion? [19:27] NickPresta: No just Standard KDE [19:27] Kubuntu Gutsy [19:28] Mac40DO: use xscreensaver :P [19:28] christiane: Debian is working on it: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2007-June/019390.html [19:28] lespea: does xscreensaver start, when I lock the screen? [19:28] Anyone use PDA, Kpilot and Avantgo??? [19:28] Mac40DO: sort of, you have to over-ride the lock command to use xscreensaver [19:28] Mac40DO: i'll find the guide quick... [19:29] lespea :-) [19:29] <|dthacker|> Downix: solved it. The drive needed to be master on the channel. [19:29] Mac40DO: http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/man1.html#10 [19:29] lespea: Thanks, I will try it! [19:29] Ace2016: except for the startup change 'Exec=xscreensaver' to 'Exec=xscreensaver -no-splash' [19:30] Mac40DO: except for the startup change 'Exec=xscreensaver' to 'Exec=xscreensaver -no-splash' [19:30] Mac40DO: good luck :) [19:30] spingwerd: So how do I unmount my partitions? [19:30] lespea: yeah, thx [19:30] ??? [19:31] Mac40DO: np, oh take the time to config xscreensaver... a lot of cool ones are not setup to run and there are a lot of stupid ones that are (run xscreensaver-demo to config) [19:31] Ace2016: miss tell, sorry [19:31] oh ok, whats that for anyway? === SudoKing is now known as Polar|Bear_ [19:32] lespea: thanx. I think that xscreensaver is better than than kde-screensaver. so I will be quite happy with xscreensaver === Polar|Bear_ is now known as Polar|Bear- [19:33] timri: thank you, I think I'll have to follow the thread... [19:33] PDA, Kpilot. Avantgo?? anyone? [19:33] Ace2016: telling Mac40DO how to disable kscreensaver (sucks balls) ot xscreensaver [19:33] to upgrade to gibbon from feisty you just have to do full upgrade in adept right? I dont get the upgrade option after I do that [19:34] <|dthacker|> Is there any way to get to LVM from the graphical installer? [19:34] duane: did you change your sources list? [19:34] duane: because you have to enable pre-released updated too [19:34] adept is buggy and need to be updated [19:34] duane: did you change the check list like it said [19:35] then will show you the update after you updates adept from -proposed [19:35] Hi, I've got kmail configured to go straight to the newest message when I open a folder, but it ignores that and always goes to the last selected message. Any ideas as to why this may be happening? === Polar|Bear- is now known as Polar|Beer- [19:35] I though gibbon was released now lol [19:35] duane: it is.... === Polar|Beer- is now known as TAD__2423123- [19:36] ok then still save to upgrade too lol [19:36] PDA, Kpilot, Avantgo? some experiences? [19:36] prerelease stuff bugs just ring in my head lol [19:36] what package do i need so k3b can make audio cd's from mp3's? === TAD__2423123- is now known as Polar|Bear_ [19:38] ingrid: restricted packages [19:38] spingwerd: I thought the recommended way was to open armok it will download it for you [19:39] I cant add samba users. Everytime I do, and click OK, next time I come back, they are gone [19:39] spingwerd: xine codecs? [19:39] duane: I sit by what I said [19:39] sudo aptitude install kubuntu-restricted-extras [19:39] thats fine not saying it wont work [19:39] just saying the way kubuntu has it documented is to use armok [19:40] also, http://www.medibuntu.org/ [19:40] duane: ok then do that ...then you wil lbe back [19:40] thanks guys. [19:40] thanks MidMark I now have the option to upgrade version :) [19:40] :) [19:40] lespea: i only see ubuntu-restricted-extras in the repos. is that the one? === Polar|Bear_ is now known as Polar|Bear- [19:41] oh, i assumed you were using kde [19:41] everytime i type su in my terminal and type my password it says authentication failed why === _roconnor is now known as roconnor [19:41] TheWozA: sudo [19:41] ingrid: i guess so, you enabled all the extra repositories right [19:41] duane: the funny thing that first adept release for Gutsy had the opposite problem -> once updated to Gutsy still offer to you upgrade :D but it's just fixes [19:42] lespea: xubuntu with some kde and gnome apps. using k3b for burning [19:42] lespea: they are all enabled [19:42] ahhh thx spingwerd [19:42] ingrid: oh, well i dunno which one will work for you... do an aptitude search restricted-extras [19:43] ingrid: if ubuntu is the only one then try it [19:43] ingrid: i highly recommend the medibuntu repo though -- w32codecs ftw [19:43] lespea: i did. :) will try ubuntu-restricted-extras. thanks for the help. [19:43] ingrid: cool, let me know if it works [19:44] will do [19:48] The KDE Media Manager isn't getting started when I reboot, but it is "checked" as "start with kde" in kcontrol. I was thinking I could put a shortcut to it in ~/.kde.Autostart but I don't know the app name. [19:49] How can I get the KDE Media Manager service to start on log in? Or, what do I need to put in Autostart? [19:51] how do I stop kubuntu from booting to x? [19:51] Remove the kdm initscript from the respective runlevel [19:51] ardchoille: tick the 'use' box in systemsettings -> advanced [tab] -> service manager [19:52] Carnage\: rename it from S* to K* is smarter, that way it survives upgrades of the kdm package.

Please be patient or go search the web or some forum. Staying around here asking again and again will not help you to anything but beeing removd from the channel. thanks for understanding. [20:17] ardchoille: good call [20:17] lespea: :) [20:17] cheap card hihg performans [20:18] fdoving : shut up dont do show [20:19] atilla: Be nice or leave the channel. [20:19] I want to be nice [20:19] but somebody not be nice [20:19] atilla: you don't overclock in any os, you do it in the bios -- it has nothing to do with ubuntu [20:19] Several people have told you this isn't the place for what you're asking [20:19] atilla: and what's with the attitude? [20:19] but [20:19] hes Waaay off topic but theres no admin willing to stop him [20:19] oveclcokers use windows xp [20:20] I want to use linux [20:20] atilla: sigh [20:20] I say how to overclcoking in linux [20:20] * ScorpKing is back.. [20:20] i just downloaded some themes from kde-look , but the files are inside a gz, so i cant open them from the theme manager, how do i install those themes? [20:20] atilla: do you even read what i'm typing? [20:20] fdoving: ty [20:20] dave_: see? :D [20:21] atilla is not entirely wrong, overclocking a graphics card doesn't necessarily have to be done in the BIOS. there is a tool at least for nVidia i think that's available in Ubuntu.

[20:22] LjL: It was his attitude and the "shut up" that I wasn't comfy with [20:22] LjL: well that works too, but he still has issues with his attidude / listening to what people have to say [20:22] fdoving: when i ran the command ya gave me it complains the files arent directories [20:22] scorpKing what do u mean (i'm noop) [20:22] lespea,exactly [20:22] ardchoille, lespea: i would suspect that's why a mute is in place. [20:22] noob [20:22] newsense07: did you add any slashes? [20:23] no [20:23] LjL: :) [20:23] winterelf: run ls /dev/ | grep hd - and tell me what it say [20:23] fdoving: changed the word file- with 1972- [20:23] newsense07: are there subdirectories in your directory? [20:23] fdoving: not in my working dir where the files are at, no [20:24] help, my graphics went haywire and i cant get up!!! [20:24] newsense07: then it should work. [20:24] scorpKing: how can i check my disk? [20:24] winterelf: type ls /dev/ | grep hd in konsole [20:24] fdoving: guess im getting closer, gotta figure this out now [20:25] newsense07, i haven't followed the discussion really, but i think you want to batch-rename files... have you tried 'rename'? [20:25] LjL:say i wanted to append the word file to all files in directory /home/user/dir/ you know how i could do that ? [20:26] LjL: basically what i want to do and never done it before [20:26] LjL: im clueless [20:26] newsense07: cd /home/usr/dir ; rename ’s/^/file/’ [20:26] newsense07: cd /home/usr/dir ; rename ’s/^/file/’ * [20:26] try krename? [20:27] newsense07: i'm pretty sure 'for i in *;do mv $i 1972-$i;done' should do it. [20:27] i tried it and found it cryptic [20:28] i changed my login resoloution last night and when i woke up the graphics are gosting and the grapgics setup says i possibly have orphaned control module or old third party modules laying around, how do i fix this, thankss [20:28] fdoving: STILL SAYING THE FILES ARE NOT DIRECTORIES [20:28] oops [20:28] sorry [20:28] fdoving, that won't work in the filenames contain spaces [20:28] newsense07: install krename (sudo aptitude install krename) [20:28] s/in/if/ [20:28] LjL: ah, yeah. spaces are evil. [20:28] newsense07, could you explain your problem again (if it's long, can you pastebin it) so others can look over it? [20:29] dont talk anybody [20:29] LjL: i tried it and it did because its file globbing.... for i in ls doesn't work [20:29] im gonna pastebin it [20:29] why not just use rename? [20:29] hi, im having a problem with my microphone, i can hear it through the speakers, so i know its working, but none of my applications pick it up, gtkguitune wont pick it up, neither will audacity, does anyone know how to fix this or whats wrong? [20:29] its hard to explain not too complicated if ya know the right commands and arguements i would think [20:29] newsense07: i'm pretty sure 'for i in *;do mv $i "1972-$i";done' should do it. then. [20:29] LjL: krename? [20:29] ardchoille: rename. man rename. [20:30] ah, ok [20:30] fdoving: perhaps quote both $i's ;) [20:30] makuseru, is it checked *for recording* in kmix? [20:30] winterelf: ? [20:31] LjL: yeah, i'll just go get a haircut. you tell him :) [20:31] LjL: i dont see where that is at [20:32] makuseru: the "Input" tab in KMix. the red "LED" [20:32] newsense07: 'for i in *;do mv "$i" "1972-$i";done' as ljl corrects me, then.

Version 0.8.1-4 (gutsy), package size 80 kB, installed size 268 kB [20:33] guess its not m day to get support:( [20:33] i still maintain that « rename 's/^/1972-/' * » is simpler though :P [20:33] if i use a 32bit pre-compield program on kubuntu 64bit, will it work?? [20:33] fdoving: yay [20:33] scorpking [20:33] ? [20:33] winterelf: did you type those commands? [20:33] The qmv command gives you a list of all filenames, you can edit with a text 3ditor.. then whenya quit - it changes the filenames like you edited. :) [20:33] LjL: i still dont see "for recording" [20:33] handy in some cases [20:33] makuseru: ... [20:33] find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -print0|xargs -0 rename 's/^.\/(.*$)/test$1/' (replace 'test' with whatever you want) [20:33] LjL: oh, i get what you mean [20:33] there is no label saying "for recording". that was an english phrase i used. [20:33] w8.. [20:33] fdoving: cool that worked, im gonna have to read up some things cause im still not sure what the command does exactly but it worked [20:34] thanks everyone [20:34] lespea: ... [20:34] LjL: ? :D [20:34] dave_ what is your vga [20:34] lespea: why not add a couple of "cat" and "grep" to that? :P [20:34] lol [20:34] i don't see any commends... [20:34] atilla, hes back [20:34] once again: rename 's/^/prefix/' * or rename 's/$/suffix' * [20:34] linux is on sda7 [20:35] winterelf: go to konsole [20:35] add a / to the latter [20:35] oh [20:35] dave_ what??? [20:35] i mount it to /dos [20:35] atilla, i give up [20:35] LjL: ok, i checked it, but it still dosnt work [20:35] cause i booted from the disk [20:35] LjL: what's wrong with the way it works... it will work 100% of the time [20:35] i m in the konsole [20:35] I/O all ! === emti is now known as _3mti === _3mti is now known as _3mti_ [20:35] newsense07: for i in *, tells for to loop over * (which expands to all files and driectories in the current folder, and run the next command 'mv $i bah-$i' once per file/dir, so the files are $i one at a time., then done. [20:36] lespea: so will mine, and it doesn't involve a redundant find and xargs, since 'rename' *already* deals with "*" ;) [20:36] winterelf: run uuidgen /dev/sda7 and compare that number with the one for sda7 in /etc/fstab [20:36] thank god for this channel [20:36] LjL: and that's for sure 100% compatable with all filenames (including weird spaces and such) [20:36] LjL: print0 ensures it will always get the correct filename [20:36] lespea: so is rename [20:36] LjL: rename requires perl. too many depends :) [20:36] fdoving, lespea's command line uses rename as well [20:37] winterelf: /dos/etc/fstab :) [20:37] and perl is installed on any APT system as APT *uses* perl :) [20:37] LjL: mine is easily adaptable to recursively rename :P [20:37] LjL: and also to regex the filenames if you want (-regex) [20:38] lespea: true enough, yet not relevant to the case at hand. write a C program to do it - that's even more adaptable :) [20:38] LjL: :p [20:38] LjL: I love find -print0 ;) [20:40] how do i delete old third party modules in kubuntu? [20:40] <_3mti_> rm :] [20:40] rm? [20:40] scorpKing: /dev/sda7 is some wierd number... but /dos/etc/fstab can't find [20:40] <_3mti_> rmmod modulename [20:41] <_3mti_> /dos/etc ?.. /etc/fstab ! [20:41] 3mti, how do i find what modules are old? [20:41] dave_: module - you mean kernel modules? and "third-party" in what way? [20:41] winterelf: where did you mount it? [20:41] yea [20:41] ho w8 i got it [20:42] comparing [20:42] ok :) [20:42] jlj,its a error message my video settings are giving me [20:42] they r both not the same at all [20:42] crapy numbers [20:42] <_3mti_> what video gfx u have dave_ [20:42] <_3mti_> nvidia chipset ?

[22:04] loxitu: It was? [22:04] livingdaylight may need to restart katalupt [22:04] scorpking, where am i looking in the menu.1st file? [22:05] yes [22:05] Dr_Willis: how do you restart it? [22:05] i uncheked it, and checked it back [22:05] however yw want.. :) reboot.. [22:05] loxitu: When you click "Logout", don't you have Restart and Shutdown buttons on the logout dialog? [22:05] still nothing [22:05] or log out [22:05] ic [22:05] sorta defeats the purpose [22:05] ardchoille [22:05] or jus run it from a terminal for now [22:05] i dont [22:05] dave: the VGA=7?? option might not be there. it is next to kernel [22:06] basically, katapult is not realiable therefore? ic [22:06] it kind of remembers me when you do "startx" from a virtua terminal [22:06] My computer refuses to boot from anything but grub, not from aCD, not from a floppy. I have checked my bios & it has nothing to do with trhe bios for I told it to boot from all of the right places, & in fact at one point I told it to boot from nothing, not even the harddrive, & grub still booted me into kubuntu. so the problem is in grub. So how do I tell grub to allow my PC to boot into a cd or floppy? [22:06] loxitu: You only have "Logout" and "Hibernate" buttons? [22:06] Only logout [22:06] livingdaylight or it dosent constantly rescan for newly installed apps. [22:06] loxitu: That's odd [22:06] real odd [22:06] Dr_Willis: oookay.... fair enough [22:06] livingdaylight since the menu system just uses .desktop files for each entry. it proberly only scans them at startup [22:06] scorpking,? [22:06] im using an ATI card [22:06] could check the katapult docs. [22:07] it has given me som trouble.... [22:07] dave: the VGA=7?? option might not be there. it is next to kernel [22:07] hi there, I am not able to compile alsa-driver for a custom kernel !! I am getting weird error ? make -C /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc1-git12/source SUBDIRS=/usr/src/alsa-driver-1.0.15rc1 O=/lib/modules/2.6.24-rc1-git12/build CPP="gcc -E" CC="gcc" modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.24-rc1' Makefile:119: *** Output directory (O=...) specifies kernel src dir. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.24-rc [22:07] Where should I go with kde4 questions? [22:07] scorpking,what does that mean? [22:07] when i start session the screen flickrs for a while [22:07] dave: i have to go now. google for grub vga modes. 771 is 800x600 by 256 colors. [22:07] im also using xgl-server [22:07] Dr_Willis: i just discovered katapult and thought it was pretty cool; especially the thought of installing something and being able to launch it pronto like that, opposed to looking for it in a menu [22:07] could it be that? [22:08] scorpking,ok thanks [22:08] loxitu: No idea [22:08] c ya! [22:08] chaisa!! [22:08] livingdaylight i have a similer tool for Vista even. :0 [22:08] does anyone know a salution to my problem? [22:09] i added the shutdown applet to kicker and nothing [22:09] i wanna cry [22:09] can anybody help me adjust my login screen resoloution? [22:09] Dr_Willis: vista eh :p [22:09] loxitu: the applet won't add? or it won't work, which? [22:09] loxitu You theres other ways to make things shutdown. :) [22:10] loxitu does the items work FROM the Login screen? [22:10] it only shows me logout also [22:10] !fix adept [22:10] If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [22:10] now thats.. odd. [22:10] yes from the login screen i can shutdown [22:10] ok :) heh.. [22:10] loxitu: he's asking about the log IN screen [22:10] could just do a 'sudo halt' or similer command [22:10] yes i know [22:10] * ardchoille types too slow [22:11] it works from there (kdm) [22:11] Can I configure NetworkManager to remove/reload my wifi driver each time a network selection is made? [22:11] ardchoille , do you know the salution to my question? [22:11] It appears to go stupid occasionally and be unable to manipulate the card properly, but reloading the driver fixes it [22:11] so i currently have to logout and then from the login screen, shutdown [22:11] is pretty annoying [22:11] you could hit alt-ctrl-backspace, then alt-ctrl-delete with the right timing. and force the system to shutdown. :) [22:12] hi im using backtrack but i cant connect to internet with dsl anyone to help me? [22:12] holyguyver: No, I wold have suggested BIOS, but you already checked that. [22:12] Dr_Willis LOL, i know, i just want it to work [22:12] loxitu or set up the halt command, and just make an icon for it. [22:12] sudo shutdown -s now ( LOL ) [22:12] actually i thoight the logout panel thing was customizeable as to what command it ran [22:12] loxitu: "-s" ? [22:13] i just noticed something [22:13] ardchoille what I think I have to do is add cdrom & floppy as a grub boot option, do you know how I may do that? [22:13] i can't change between users either [22:13] holyguyver: No, sorry :( [22:14] isnt there a easy to adjust the log in resolution?

[23:22] marie_: hmm did you update your audio-drivers? [23:22] Exploit: no how can you do that? [23:22] do you use alsa? [23:22] hum not really [23:22] Dr_Willis: i'm soo confused :/ [23:23] livingdaylight you are about the 4th person ive seen mention k3b and other apps not seeing the cds when burning [23:23] marie_: i am not a pro, but had somle problems too. Someone from #alsa said the first thing to do is updating your sound-drivers [23:23] livingdaylight ive not had any issues on this box . on my other machine. it sees/burns cd's then has issues even tho it burns them right. [23:23] Dr_Willis: its reassuring, in weird sort of way, that i'm not the only one, though i don't know what to do. Deos this prove my system is goofy and find a nother clean cd of kubuntu or put it down to k3b only [23:24] Exploit: and how you update that? [23:24] livingdaylight i would say check the forums. see if any others have some sort of info/fix's - i havent heard of any fix's but havent looked into the problem much [23:24] Dr_Willis: i thought kubuntu was serious os [23:24] livingdaylight go ask for a refund then.. i dont care what ya do. :) [23:24] marie_: i think it's different. If you use ALSA ask in #alsa, while using other drivers, try your luck in their channels :) [23:25] livingdaylight you dont want to get me started on the issues ive had with Windows This week., [23:25] and its 'supposed' to be a serious os also. [23:25] Exploit: kk thx for your help [23:25] marie_: you're welcome :) [23:25] Dr_Willis: i don't know if this is a kubuntu issue or if it is a gutsy issue, but feisty seemed much more stable... [23:25] I wonder if its not some problem with the 'auto-mounting' stuff getting in the way of k3b. [23:26] livingdaylight could try a light window manager like 'jwm' and run k3b manually [23:26] Dr_Willis: i don't mean to get you started on windows, no doubt you've had issues if you say so, but for my part i have xp on a laptop and no complaints, none! [23:27] Dr_Willis: or try a differnt burner? brasero? gnomebaker? [23:27] Windows is good when it works.. but whenit breaks - its next to impossible to fix. Linux at least lets ya get under the hood. [23:27] Dr_Willis: and mac? [23:28] livingdaylight for those what want 'style over substance' :) [23:28] Dr_Willis: the website about multiverse said that multiverse means "non-free"... is this free in direction of "freedome" (--> free software) or "no-no costs" (you have to pay)? [23:28] Dr_Willis: seems to work though, or do they have these issues too? [23:28] Exploit its free as in the licensing type stuff GPL - I know of no 'pay' repositories [23:29] livingdaylight Ive had issues with APples as well. [23:29] Dr_Willis: i agree about being at least being able to fix in Linux, but that is if one knows how to get under the hood and knows what to do. I don't, and you don't want to be going under people's linux's hoods all day either do you? [23:29] comput4ers and os's are so complex - its amazing they work at all.. Thenpeople expect the PC to have ESP as well. :) [23:29] Dr_Willis: thank you. GPL is the greatest thing i ever heared of (and lived with.. of course) :) [23:29] BUG: kubuntu 7.10 open folder as root icon opens windows for each file and subdirectory [23:30] ( about 50 ! ) [23:30] livingdaylight ive rarely had to do much with linux. In fact its gottn now on a cleqn/new install of the OS. Kubuntu vs XP. I do MUCH less work after the install of Kubuntu to get it working how i want. [23:30] kubuntu rox [23:30] Kubuntu now even sees my printer automaticially :) [23:30] Dr_Willis: That means the sourcecode of java is not public. thats okay than :) [23:30] anyone interested in the bug I found ? [23:30] Why can't I run "ntfs-progs" wh [23:30] Exploit sun just recenely did somthign with the licening of it.. I dont keep up with it however. [23:31] while it was already installed [23:31] BUG: kubuntu 7.10 open folder as root icon opens windows for each file and subdirectory [23:31] bye all [23:31] Dr_Willis: but for k3b not to work - a core and default kde /kubuntu app is strange; ofcourse i recognize the positives and where linux has improved in hardware detection and so on [23:31] Dr_Willis: my guid said i have to add something to my /etc/apt/sources.list for java... but what do i have to add? [23:32] is there an alternative to k3b i can try? [23:32] Exploit you shouldent have to ad anything I thoiught. it may need 'multiverse' enabled. And thats enableable from the package manager tools [23:32] !find java6-jre [23:32] Found: sun-java6-jre [23:32] !info sun-java6-jre [23:32] sun-java6-jre: Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture independent files). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 6-03-0ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 6179 kB, installed size 14168 kB [23:32] so it is already enabled? How may i check it? [23:33] try an 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre' [23:33] is it the complete java package with compiler and stuff like that? [23:34] (command would work) [23:34] anyone know if there is an alternative to k3b? [23:35] Dr_Willis: it is normal for the 15 minutes waiting after the downloading and verifying the upgrade tool? [23:35] livingdaylight, for burning what ? [23:36] I installed the package ntfsprogs, but when I try to tun, nothing happens [23:36] BluesKaj: iso k3b is broken [23:37] try kiso [23:37] BluesKaj: preferable to gnomebaker or brasero? [23:38] dunno, never tried 'em [23:38] but you tried kiso? [23:38] yup [23:38] thx [23:39] k3b iso seems ok on my setup [23:39] Seems ok here too [23:40] well, k3b is not ok here, and i am not the only one apparently [23:40] i'm trying to set up a mediawiki but whenever i link the directory to /var/www/ it says i do not have permission to access /mediawiki/ on this server, when i go to configure it. even if its permissions are 777 [23:40] whats going on? [23:40] kiso uses k3b for burning iso files [23:40] Knetworkmanager is still broken for me. [23:41] hi [23:41] I tried going into the network config dialog and disabling/enabling eth0 and eth1 === nadia is now known as chiki [23:41] amundsen: did you used to teach at bod? [23:41] And that made them show up in /etc/network/interfaces, but knetworkmanager hasn't noticed yet. [23:41] Neither has Konqueror. I had to install firefox to use the web, Konqueror insists I haven't got a network connection. [23:42] does anybody know how to solve the kde resolution problem ? [23:42] amundsen: What problem? [23:42] Last night somebody here suggested I do a dbus restart. [23:42] Never do a dbus restart on a system running from battery power. [23:42] It makes it think your battery has been yanked. [23:43] It gets... unhappy. [23:43] Oh, and the "submit bug report" dialog doesn't work. [23:43] ardchoille: i can change the kde desktop resolution, but this doesn't seem to afect to kdm [23:43] My email server needs me to supply a specific domain name in order for outgoing mail to be accepted. [23:44] I told kmail about that, but the submit bug report dialog has its own email config thing that doesn't let me do that. [23:44] And I crashed Konsole this morning. [23:44] If your system's running really slow because you're untarring lots of backups and have the hard drive maxed out writing, so there are arbitrary 20 second delays doing anything... [23:44] amundsen: Well, yes, chaning the resolution in kde only changes it for kde [23:45] And you right click to close a Konsole tab, and then 10 seconds later right click and close that tab again... [23:45] And both close events go through once the delay is up... [23:45] Konsole crashes. [23:45] ardchoille: i did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [23:45] I also crashed kmail this morning, but A) that's nothing unusual, B) I can't reproduce that one. [23:46] Oh, and sometimes when I mouse click, the click doesn't go through until I move the mouse. [23:46] This is highly noticeable on a touchpad. [23:46] BluesKaj: kiso just keeps crashing and uses k3b to burn anyway, right? [23:46] yup [23:46] I think it's related to the way the mouse sometimes gets stuck down when I'm clicking a scroll bar or something, and it decides to zoom to the end of the document. [23:47] On the whole, not an upgrade that's made me particularly happy so far. [23:47] livingdaylight, what kind of ISO are you trying to burn ? [23:47] amundsen: Tried this? http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-desktop-74/how-to-change-kdm-resolution-508587/ [23:48] an iso kind of iso [23:48] video , audio, data ? [23:49] ardchoille: of course ... [23:49] what difference does it make? [23:49] ah... is it possible to install .jar files? [23:49] Does knetworkmanager work in 7.10 on x86-64 for anybody else? [23:50] amundsen: And after changing the kdm resolution, did you restart kdm? [23:50] if im using ifo to read ext3 in windows anyway, is there any reason to use FAT for drives i want to share data between [23:51] Exploit: java -jar {jar ackage} ??? [23:52] nonewmsgs: you can read ext2/3 partitions in windows!!! [23:52] nonewmsgs: lol i'm retarded [23:52] http://www.bluej.org/download/download.html the one for other machines (executable java files) [23:52] nonewmsgs: pay no attention [23:52] How do I get Konqueror to tell me _why_ it won't use the network connection that works fine for firefox/konversation/kmail? [23:52] we all have our moments lespea [23:56] <|neon|> is tere a good read on how to multiple desktops, thx [23:56] nonewmsgs: :P [23:57] lespea: http://www.bluej.org/download/download.html the one for other machines (executable java files) [23:57] but is there any reason why not to just use ext3 [23:57] can i install this file? [23:58] guys, what is going on here [23:58] yeah just type 'java -jar {filename}' in the console [23:58] should work [23:58] i cant add a directory to /var/www/ without not bieng ble to access it via the web [23:58] it makes no sense [23:58] |neon|: how to do what? with multiple desktops? [23:59] lespea: thank you :) [23:59] Exploit: :) [23:59] i've always sym linked directories into var/www/ and had them show up on the web, and there are some done like that right now that are working, why isnt a new one doing anything? [23:59] it says i don't have access to it [23:59] but the permissions are 777 and +x and i chowned it to my normal user
