|---|---|---|
| Lazarus | im using a riva tnt2 model 64 on this box | 00:00 |
| sourcemaker | I am sorry for my language | 00:00 |
| Lazarus | i got the drivers to work | 00:00 |
| NeoFax | What driver did you try to use nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-legacy>? | 00:00 |
| Excelsior | zibrah3ed: It is a trendnet twe-421PCI card | 00:00 |
| sourcemaker | I am just sitting 5 hours on pc... for installing a simple nvidia card | 00:00 |
| Excelsior | zibrah3ed: I might also add that it worked fine under Feisty | 00:00 |
| NeoFax | Excelsior: What is the chipset | 00:00 |
| Excelsior | NeoFax: Nforce4 | 00:00 |
| NeoFax | No, the chipset on the WiFi card | 00:01 |
| sourcemaker | Lazarus : You are absolutly right | 00:01 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Did you do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy or nvidia-glx? | 00:01 |
| Excelsior | Marvell? | 00:01 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax : I have tried both... but alway the same result of an api missmatch | 00:02 |
| Lazarus | sourcemaker: i think my card is older than yours though, heh | 00:02 |
| Dresken | I've updated Kubuntu and I still get the "hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000" when I try to mount an ntfs partition, any idea how to resolve this issue? | 00:02 |
| Lazarus | ive got to be to the gym | 00:02 |
| Lazarus | good day talking gents | 00:02 |
| NeoFax | Excelsior: Try doing lspci and getting the ID for that wifi card and do a google search to get the chipset | 00:02 |
| Excelsior | Bbs | 00:02 |
| * Excelsior is on Windows as a result of thius | 00:02 | |
| * Excelsior *this | 00:02 | |
| sourcemaker | Lazarus : be happy :-) | 00:02 |
| bbm4n | hello ppl | 00:03 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Try sudo apt-get purge nvidia-glx, then do sudo apt-get install sudo nvidia-glx-legacy | 00:03 |
| bbm4n | can anyone help me with adept manager? | 00:03 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: nice try... I have also tried this | 00:03 |
| sourcemaker | ;-) | 00:03 |
| ubuzztu | sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk seems to be working | 00:03 |
| Arkard | Hi to everyone | 00:03 |
| Arkard | I need some help with the update please | 00:04 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Do lsmod | grep nvidia | 00:04 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: here you are: nvidia 4713780 0 nvidia_agp 9500 1 i2c_core 22656 3 i2c_ec,nvidia,i2c_nforce2 agpgart 35400 2 nvidia,nvidia_agp | 00:04 |
| Arkard | i just get the Kubuntu 7.10 CD ROM, and i want to update from it, i try using this command: kdesu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" | 00:04 |
| Dresken | Anyone? o_o | 00:05 |
| Arkard | can anybody help me please? | 00:05 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: And you still get the same error in Xorg.0.log? That is strange as the driver is loaded otherwise you would not have gotten anything from that last bit of code | 00:06 |
| NeoFax | Arkard: Do you have Fiesty already installed? | 00:06 |
| Arkard | yeap | 00:06 |
| Arkard | and already updated too | 00:06 |
| NeoFax | Then just do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and change every instance of Fiesty to gutsy. | 00:07 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax : same error | 00:07 |
| ardchoille | NeoFax: That's not the recommended method to upgrade, he'll miss apps with that method. | 00:07 |
| sourcemaker | except... the API missmatch is not written to the log file... | 00:07 |
| NeoFax | What does your /etc/X11/xorg.conf look like in the devices section for the video card | 00:07 |
| Arkard | NeoFax: is that i wish to update to GG from the CDROM | 00:07 |
| ardchoille | !upgrade | Arkard | 00:07 |
| ubotu | Arkard: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 00:07 |
| Minataku | こんばんわ | 00:08 |
| Minataku | :3 | 00:08 |
| bbm4n | whats that? | 00:08 |
| bbm4n | chinese? | 00:08 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: Is that Thai? | 00:08 |
| Minataku | It's Japanese | 00:08 |
| Minataku | I setup Japanese input today | 00:08 |
| sourcemaker | nice upgrade notes... but the GUI Upgrade does not work... when java is installed on your system... :-) | 00:08 |
| Minataku | Had to restart X11 at least 10 times before I got it set up correctly | 00:09 |
| andreas_ | what do i need to install to watch divx movies in firefox? | 00:09 |
| |neon| | is there a channel for dsniff | 00:09 |
| NeoFax | Arkard: You can, just comment all of the apt lines except for the CD-Rom one. | 00:09 |
| Arkard | Ok NeoFax let me try | 00:09 |
| sourcemaker | andreas_: @mozilla-mplayer? | 00:10 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Have you tried mv /etc/X11/xorg.onf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nak and let BulletproofX try and figure out a good setting for your card? | 00:10 |
| NeoFax | Arkard: Why would u want to upgrade from the CD? There has been plenty of updates since 7.10 came out and now you r upgrading twice | 00:11 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax : Well.... i think there is no xorg config problem... it is the same as in feisty... and yes... i have try some autoconfigure tools :-) | 00:11 |
| Arkard | NeoFax: is that i have a very slow Internet connection, and i really wish to update to 7.10 | 00:12 |
| Dr_willis | Theres the Kubuntu-restricted-extras package also -that good to install to get a lot of the media-stuff going | 00:12 |
| NeoFax | The problem seems to not be the driver as well. I think it is glx on your sytem being messed up and nvidia will not start X without this | 00:12 |
| sourcemaker | Arkard : Keep on feisty... in gusty... there are a lot of bugs... :-) | 00:12 |
| Arkard | a lot of BUGS???? | 00:13 |
| ardchoille | sourcemaker: Maybe for you, I haven't seen any big problems in Gutsy | 00:13 |
| Dr_willis | Upgrading works good for some.. not so good for others. | 00:13 |
| Dr_willis | I advise clean reinstalls when possible | 00:13 |
| ardchoille | same here | 00:13 |
| ardchoille | Arkard: Why not just backup personal files and do a fresh install from the 7.10 cd? | 00:13 |
| NeoFax | I have had quite a few problems so far. Actually I cannot boot right now because of a update in Gutsy. | 00:13 |
| Arkard | ardchoille: im really close to do it man | 00:14 |
| Dr_willis | i keep my /home on its own HD. :) clean installs are easy | 00:14 |
| ardchoille | Indeed | 00:14 |
| Dr_willis | i also make a script that installs the packages i always normally install. | 00:14 |
| Arkard | what about all the Packages i have downloaded? | 00:15 |
| Dr_willis | you can use a command to get a list of all the ones you have installed | 00:15 |
| ardchoille | I have written a master script (app installs, tweaks, etc) so a fresh install requires that I be in front of the computer a total of 10 minutes. | 00:15 |
| Minataku | Heya, Dr_Willis :D | 00:16 |
| sourcemaker | ardchoille :- the upgrade gui: hangs on 10%... because of an dependy of java... there was a .deb file witch required user input (boom) :-)- My NVidia Card... does not work- The network was done... because of an configuration problem after upgrade | 00:16 |
| ricardo_ | hola | 00:16 |
| Minataku | !es | ricardo_ | 00:16 |
| ubotu | ricardo_: Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda. | 00:16 |
| Minataku | :3 | 00:16 |

| Minataku | ricardo_: Indeed, welcome :3 | 00:17 |
| ricardo_ | :) | 00:17 |
| ricardo_ | what is this channel about | 00:18 |
| sourcemaker | ardchoille : I also prefer fresh install... but I do have no time... to maintaince my system every 3 months from scatch | 00:18 |
| ricardo_ | ? | 00:18 |
| Minataku | Kubuntu assistance | 00:18 |
| ardchoille | ricardo_: Kubuntu, What can we help you with? | 00:18 |
| Minataku | If you just dropped in to chat, there's #kubuntu-offtopic | 00:18 |
| sourcemaker | ardchoille : But it whould be better... | 00:18 |
| ricardo_ | jeje thank you | 00:18 |
| ardchoille | sourcemaker: So write a bash script or two to automate things, that's what I have done. | 00:18 |
| Minataku | Though it's a bit quiet in there at the moment | 00:18 |
| ricardo_ | im from mexico | 00:19 |
| Minataku | Coo | 00:19 |
| Minataku | I'm farther north | 00:19 |

| Minataku | :) | 00:20 |
| ricardo_ | ohh i see official kubuntu support channel | 00:20 |
| ricardo_ | oks | 00:20 |
| ricardo_ | well im ok | 00:20 |
| ricardo_ | see you | 00:20 |
| crxyem | so did 7.010 drop support for ppc | 00:21 |
| Dr_willis | !ppc | 00:21 |
| ubotu | PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 00:21 |
| Dr_willis | there is a ppc cd/image for 7.10 i recall./ but never tried it. | 00:22 |
| Arkard | NeoFax: i have a problem, i insert the CDROM but it doesnt mount the cdrom in /cdrom, what can i do? | 00:22 |
| Arkard | it apears like this: /media/Kubuntu 7.10 i386 | 00:23 |
| NeoFax | Arkard: Where does it mount it? | 00:23 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: "Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has the version 1.0-9755, but this X module has the version 1.0-9631. Please make sure that the kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components have the same version." using nvidia-glx-legacy | 00:23 |
| Minataku | crxyem: To answer the question, "sort of" | 00:23 |
| Arkard | NeoFax: /media/Kubuntu 7.10 i386 | 00:23 |
| Dr_willis | ive never seen kubuntu mount the cd to /cdrom | 00:23 |
| Dr_willis | normally its /media/cdrom for me. | 00:23 |
| ardchoille | He'd have to edit fstabd for that I believe | 00:24 |
| crxyem | I just pick up an g3 imac, and I wasn't given the mac osx 10.3.9 discs so my next idea was to use linux | 00:24 |
| ardchoille | *fstab | 00:24 |
| Arkard | so, when i try to add it as a REPO, it says "There is no CDROM Inserted" | 00:24 |
| NeoFax | Arkard Try ln -s /media/cdrom /media/Kubuntu 7.10 i386 | 00:24 |
| NickPresta | Arkard, is there a reason you need to have your CDROM as a repo? | 00:24 |
| Arkard | update from FF to GG | 00:24 |
| Minataku | crxyem: There's also FreeBSD, but that's more than a touch harder | 00:25 |
| Minataku | Though not TOO difficult | 00:25 |
| Minataku | Though you're not likely to get much help out of #freebsd | 00:25 |
| Arkard | NeoFax: doesnt work | 00:26 |
| sourcemaker | dpkg-query -l | grep nvidiaii nvidia-glx 1:1.0.9639+2.6.22.4-14.10 NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org driver | 00:26 |
| Minataku | I've got an older PPC machine myself | 00:26 |
| Minataku | Though mine is PReP, not Mac | 00:26 |
| Dr_willis | I got an imac DV - its running OS-x right now. Linux always ran ... weird on it. | 00:26 |
| Minataku | That's because Macs suck | 00:27 |
| Minataku | :P | 00:27 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Can you open adept and do a search on legacy and tell me what you show installed with this? | 00:27 |
| Minataku | If you want a proper PPC machine, get an RS/6000 | 00:27 |
| Dr_willis | a PS3 | 00:27 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 00:27 |
| Minataku | I said PROPER | 00:27 |
| sourcemaker | root@sourcemaker-desktop:/home/sourcemaker# aptitude search legacyp edubuntu-addon-legacy - Edubuntu add-on packages from older releasesp kmilo-legacy - non-standard plugins for KMilop legacyhuman-theme - Legacy Human GTK themep nvidia-glx-leg | 00:27 |

| Minataku | Now you're REALLY scraping the bottom of the barrel with THAT suggestion, Dr_Willis | 00:27 |
| Dr_willis | PegaOS machine. | 00:28 |
| Minataku | That Cell POS is barely a proper PPC chip itself | 00:28 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 00:28 |
| vzduch | !paste | sourcemaker | 00:28 |
| ubotu | sourcemaker: 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) | 00:28 |
| Dr_willis | it helps to paste usefullinfo also. :) | 00:28 |
| Minataku | I've got an IBM RS/6000 43P-140 | 00:28 |
| Minataku | PowerPC 604e @ 233MHz | 00:29 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Try uninstalling nvidia-glx with the purge option and installing the nvidia-glx-legacy with the legacy kernel drivers | 00:29 |
| sourcemaker | ubuntulog: great to know... thanks | 00:29 |
| Minataku | Gigantic machine, it's taller than a Sun Ultra 2 | 00:29 |
| Minataku | A touch thinner and a touch longer, as well | 00:29 |
| NeoFax | Your problem is you have mismatching drivers. With two different drivers installed, the kernel gets confused and cannot run. | 00:30 |
| Minataku | But it's got a cool sliding door over the front parts | 00:30 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: Thanks for you help... but i will buy a new card... | 00:30 |
| Minataku | Which includes a little orange, 4-character, LED display :3 | 00:30 |
| Dresken | Does anyone have any idea about how to resolve the "hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000" issue? | 00:31 |
| Hakmad | um, can someone help me with Kubuntu installation? I booted the CD, but now what? | 00:31 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. Ive seen that Uid refused issue asked in here a lot.. wonder what the forums say about it, | 00:31 |
| Dr_willis | Hakmad, ya got a desktop? see an icon that says 'install' ? | 00:32 |
| Hakmad | I clicked it...nothing :( | 00:32 |
| Arkard | im still cannot update GG from CDROM | 00:32 |
| Dr_willis | double click? | 00:32 |
| Hakmad | tyes | 00:32 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 00:32 |
| Hakmad | It shows a little icon on the mouse, but then it goes away and nothing | 00:32 |
| Minataku | ぱそこん | 00:32 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: When did you start using linux ? (in years?) | 00:33 |
| Minataku | Heehee | 00:33 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Roughly May of 1999 | 00:33 |
| spyder79 | Hello, I had some kind of glitch during a full upgrade and now adept won't actually update anything, any ideas? | 00:33 |
| Minataku | Erm | 00:33 |
| Minataku | That's not supposed to be in hiragana | 00:33 |
| Minataku | My bad | 00:33 |
| NeoFax | My first install was RedHat 5.2 | 00:33 |
| Minataku | パソコン | 00:34 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: Okay... Now i know your skills :-) | 00:34 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: Great :-) | 00:34 |
| Minataku | That's more like it | 00:34 |
| Minataku | lol | 00:34 |
| NeoFax | You want to tsalk about learning to install linux. That was fun. | 00:34 |
| Minataku | I've installed numerous different OSes myself | 00:34 |
| Hakmad | Does anyone know what i should do? It won't install :( | 00:34 |
| Minataku | But that's because I'm a collector | 00:34 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: What ones that aren't UNIX based or Windows? | 00:34 |
| Minataku | Of both OSes and Computers | 00:34 |
| NeoFax | Just OSes | 00:35 |
| Minataku | Well, I've installed CP/M-86 | 00:35 |
| Minataku | I've installed DEC RT-11 | 00:35 |
| Minataku | DEC RSTS/E | 00:35 |
| Dr_willis | ive only used the alternative install cd - not sure how to troubhe shoot the live cd installer. Could run the install command from a terminal. | 00:35 |
| Minataku | Syllable | 00:35 |
| Hakmad | how? | 00:35 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: Have you also installed gentoo from stage 1... thats fun :-)? | 00:35 |
| Minataku | Syllable is POSIX, not Unix, BTW | 00:35 |
| bbm4n | can anyone help me with unistalling stuff? | 00:35 |
| Minataku | sourcemaker: I have | 00:35 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Yes. I used Gentoo for a long time. | 00:35 |
| Minataku | Piyoko's install used to be a Stage 1 | 00:35 |
| andreas_ | Cant get mplayer working with konqueror | 00:36 |
| Minataku | But when I reinstalled to her new HDD, they had deprecated Stage 1 | 00:36 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: You have me beat. Ever use Be? | 00:36 |
| sourcemaker | bbm4n: apt-get remove $package | 00:36 |
| Minataku | But I recompiled everything anyway | 00:36 |
| Dr_willis | I used BeOS for a while. :) | 00:36 |
| Hakmad | how do I run install command from terminal? | 00:36 |
| Minataku | So it ended up being technically a stage 1 | 00:36 |
| Minataku | NeoFax: Yes, I have | 00:36 |
| sourcemaker | bbm4n: apt-get remove --purge $page-name (also delete config files= | 00:36 |
| Dr_willis | Hakmad, right click on that install icon, select properties. and see what command its running, | 00:36 |
| Minataku | The PDP-11 OSes I installed on a VM, BTW | 00:37 |
| Minataku | Hooray for SIMH | 00:37 |
| Minataku | :3 | 00:37 |
| NeoFax | What is your favorite? | 00:37 |
| bbm4n | basically i want to remove a package with all the other packages that because of the dependencies installed too | 00:37 |
| Minataku | Probably Linux | 00:37 |
| Minataku | lol | 00:37 |
| Minataku | With NetBSD a close second | 00:37 |
| bbm4n | is there a log file or something to use? | 00:37 |
| NeoFax | I would say Linux as well. It has got to be the most versatile sytem I have used. | 00:37 |
| Minataku | I've installed A/UX on a semi-supported system | 00:38 |
| Minataku | That was an adventure | 00:38 |
| Minataku | I've got A/UX 3.1.1 running on an Apple Macintosh Quadra 650 | 00:38 |
| NeoFax | I have multiple different setups using the linux kernel. That is just amazing to me. | 00:38 |
| Arkard | im still cannot update GG from CDROM | 00:38 |
| sourcemaker | Minataku: the old amiga workbench was the best... insert the floppy disk and everything was working (*joke*) | 00:38 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: I remember using those in high school the Apple Quadra I mean | 00:39 |
| Minataku | Ubuntu could do well to rip off some of the features from A/UX | 00:39 |
| Minataku | lol | 00:39 |
| Dr_willis | That QNX floppy disk desktop a few years back was neat also. :) | 00:39 |
| bbm4n | i would vote for windows vista, rofl | 00:39 |
| Minataku | I've got screenshots of A/UX | 00:39 |
| Minataku | Lemme pull 'em up | 00:39 |
| Minataku | http://s95018220.onlinehome.us/random/auximages/ << Enjoy :D | 00:40 |
| === spyder79 is now known as spyder79_ | ||
| sourcemaker | bbm4n: Yes... you can buy the newest pc... but vista is working very slow because of different drivers problems | 00:40 |
| NeoFax | Arkard: You need to link the /media/Kubuntu to /media/cdrom. Also, you will need to enclose the Kubuntu part or use the \ character as Linux does not like spaces. | 00:40 |
| sourcemaker | Minataku: nice pics | 00:40 |
| Minataku | Thank Apple for Ctrl+Shift+3 | 00:40 |
| Minataku | lol | 00:40 |
| Arkard | yeah, i fix it NeoFax, but it doesnt make the Symbolic Link | 00:41 |
| Minataku | Then thank ImageMagick for converting them from MIFF to PNG | 00:41 |
| Minataku | lol | 00:41 |
| bbm4n | <sourcemaker>: yes i know my laptop freaked out with them, i have an original copy sitting on my desk :) | 00:41 |
| Minataku | But yeah, thank me for getting the pics X3 | 00:41 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: R u a Naruto fan? I noticed the name Sasuke | 00:41 |
| Minataku | This was untouched by Jobs (A/UX, that is) so it's actually usable and not too filled with evil | 00:41 |
| Minataku | Not really | 00:42 |
| Minataku | Naruto is rather cute, though >.> | 00:42 |
| Minataku | The series has excellent character design XD | 00:42 |
| Minataku | But that's about all it does excellently | 00:42 |
| spyder79_ | Can anyone help me with an upgrade problem? | 00:42 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: Do you know the configuration... to open dophin instead of konqi? | 00:42 |
| NeoFax | Yes, but sometimes it takes forever for the plot to move | 00:42 |
| Minataku | As for the name, all my systems are named after anime characters | 00:42 |
| Minataku | I happened to be thinking about Naruto when it came time to name the Q650 | 00:43 |
| Hakmad | tok, my LiveCD thingy just froze on me...:( | 00:43 |
| Minataku | Or something | 00:43 |
| Minataku | I don't quite remember | 00:43 |
| Minataku | Sasuke, not as cute | 00:43 |
| Minataku | Sakura, though... Wow. ;3 | 00:43 |
| Minataku | XD | 00:43 |
| NeoFax | sourcemaker: Try kcontrol and setting the default filemanager configuration. Or try changing the type in konqueror like when you change mpg viewer from noatun to kaffeine | 00:43 |
| Dr_willis | Hakmad, im wondering if your cd image file was burnt badly, or messed up in downloading | 00:44 |
| andreas_ | Cant get mplayer working with konqueror | 00:44 |
| Minataku | At least Naruto isn't as bad as DBZ | 00:44 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: I like Hinata. | 00:44 |
| NeoFax | She is an introvert like me. | 00:44 |
| Hakmad | maybe Dr., is there anyway to get a CD that just installs it? | 00:44 |
| Minataku | Where what little plot there was (none) moved along slower than frozen molasses | 00:44 |
| |neon| | i know is offtopic but i just installed fc8 on my spare sys , what a freaking joke of OS | 00:44 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: I used to like DBZ, but it started to wear on me. Have you watched DeathNote? | 00:44 |
| bbm4n | another question why w32codecs cannot help me play a .avi file? | 00:44 |

| Dr_willis | Hakmad, thats the 'alternative install cd' that i always use. it should be mentioned on the kubuntu web page/download links | 00:45 |
| NeoFax | bbm4n: What is the fourcc code? | 00:45 |
| Stingball | any one know where i can start looking | 00:45 |
| bbm4n | deathnote is awesome btw!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 00:45 |
| Hakmad | ok, ill try that | 00:45 |
| sourcemaker | NeoFax: thanks | 00:45 |
| semistud2354 | can someone tell me how to trick a website that requires internet explorer | 00:45 |
| Minataku | I just finished watching "Lucky Star", "Magical Pokan" and "The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi" | 00:45 |
| semistud2354 | i think theres a mozilla plugin but i am unable to find it | 00:45 |
| semistud2354 | err...firefox | 00:45 |
| Dr_willis | Hakmad, thats the 'alternative install cd' that i always use. it should be mentioned on the kubuntu web page/download links | 00:46 |
| NeoFax | DeathNote is like Bleach, but way darker. You kinda have to be morbid to get into it. | 00:46 |
| Dr_willis | oops :) heh | 00:46 |
| Hakmad | ok Dr, im goign there right now... | 00:46 |
| Minataku | Yeah, you can see my tastes in that selection up there | 00:46 |
| Minataku | lol | 00:46 |
| semistud2354 | its important becuae im using linux....and im taking an online class | 00:46 |
| bbm4n | fourcc, what do you mean? | 00:46 |
| semistud2354 | i dont want to install windows JUST for one class | 00:46 |
| NeoFax | semistud2354: Change what your system is telling the website. I forget what it is called, but in Konqueror you can configure it | 00:46 |
| Minataku | semistud2354: User Agent Switcher | 00:47 |
| Stingball | NeoFax: Wine? | 00:47 |
| Minataku | That's what it's called | 00:47 |
| semistud2354 | is there a way to make mozilla do it | 00:47 |
| semistud2354 | err...firefox | 00:47 |
| Stingball | use active x I doubt it | 00:47 |
| Minataku | The Firefox extension is called "User Agent Switcher" | 00:47 |
| bbm4n | <NeoFax> : fourcc, what do you mean? | 00:47 |
| NeoFax | bbm4n: AVI is just a container. You can shove xvid, divx, all kinds of codecs inside it. | 00:47 |
| semistud2354 | whats better the konqueror one or the plugin for firefox | 00:48 |
| Hakmad | Willis, Im at the download section...I see stuff about Gutsy Gibbon and Dapper...dont see "alternate cd" anywhere... | 00:48 |
| Minataku | Firefox | 00:48 |
| NeoFax | fourcc tells you exactly what type of codecs are used on that vid file | 00:48 |
| semistud2354 | firefox one is better | 00:48 |
| Minataku | Firefox also offers a manual change ala Konq | 00:48 |
| Minataku | But Firefox is 1200% better in all respects anyway | 00:48 |
| Minataku | Plus the aforementioned extension is far easier | 00:48 |
| semistud2354 | kk | 00:49 |
| bbm4n | <NeoFax> : how can i see the fourcc code? | 00:49 |
| semistud2354 | konquer is good for file browsing | 00:49 |
| NeoFax | Firefox is way better as it has been supported and upgraded. Konqueror has been slowly dying ever since the maintainers(many, not all) have moved to webkit AKA Safari | 00:49 |
| Hakmad | help | 00:50 |
| NeoFax | In linux I am not sure. I would try running mplayer from the command line and see what it spits back. Or, you can use fourcc from doom9.org inside wine maybe. | 00:50 |
| semistud2354 | konqueror is dying | 00:51 |
| NeoFax | Also, if mplayer doesn't play it with w32codecs, then it probably won't play. Try vlc though to | 00:51 |
| semistud2354 | whats the replacemnet going to be for konqueror | 00:51 |
| semistud2354 | ? | 00:51 |

| NeoFax | It is almost as bad as Nautilus. | 00:53 |
| semistud2354 | yea... | 00:53 |
| semistud2354 | i thought konqueror was actually pretty good | 00:53 |
| Minataku | I never did | 00:53 |
| NeoFax | You can't even sort by size or show the size | 00:53 |
| semistud2354 | not a bad browser...NOT THE BEST but not bad...for emergency use | 00:53 |

| Minataku | Links is for emergency use | 00:53 |
| semistud2354 | onlne test...lol | 00:53 |
| bbm4n | i love links :D | 00:54 |
| NeoFax | Minataku: That is harsh. | 00:54 |
| semistud2354 | is there a java..based linux web browser | 00:54 |
| Minataku | What? Links is a very good browser. | 00:54 |
| Minataku | It even has graphical modes for framebuffer, SVGAlib and X11 | 00:54 |
| NeoFax | If I had a choice, it would be firefox, but with better memory usage, or Opera with better KDE compatibility | 00:54 |
| Minataku | I refuse to use Opera | 00:55 |
| bbm4n | Links kept me sane while i was using gentoo with no window system support *sighs | 00:55 |
| NeoFax | Links is good if you are a sadist | 00:55 |
| Minataku | I'm not going to use a lousy proprietary browser when a superior free one exists | 00:55 |

| hagabaka | i thought people said 8.42.3 didn't need xgl? | 02:07 |
| vzduch | sounds like ATI.. *urghs* | 02:08 |
| stdin | if you're using the new driver you need to make sure you've edited the /usr/bin/compiz script to not blacklist it | 02:08 |
| flaccid | im on ati too. i can't get it to work. xserver-xgl just makes it go all gluggy | 02:09 |
| draik | stdin: He is in the group | 02:09 |
| hagabaka | i did edit it | 02:10 |
| hagabaka | before i did that compiz would just quit and say it's not in the whitelist, now it tries to start | 02:10 |
| draik | flaccid: I had to uninstall xgl-xserver because it was causing a lag on my system | 02:10 |
| flaccid | draik: same. how frustrating. | 02:10 |
| flaccid | thing is should compiz work with flglrx or ati driver? | 02:11 |
| draik | flaccid: #compiz-fusion | 02:11 |
| flaccid | ok | 02:11 |
| hagabaka | everywhere i read says fglrx 8.42.3 should work, e.g. http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide | 02:11 |
| draik | stdin: What should I be looking into so that I can get Kaffeine to play a standard DVD movie | 02:11 |
| draik | ? | 02:11 |
| NickPresta | !dvd | draik | 02:12 |
| ubotu | draik: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 02:12 |
| Autoscum | uh.. | 02:12 |
| Autoscum | Adept broke :/ | 02:12 |
| stdin | draik: libdvdcss2 | 02:12 |
| NickPresta | Autoscum, how did it break? | 02:12 |
| Autoscum | when i start it, it launches 2 adepts and says that "another program is using the packaging system" | 02:12 |
| Autoscum | yeah, i was getting to that :P | 02:12 |
| draik | stdin: I libdvdcss2 installed | 02:12 |
| Dr_willis | you do have any other programs closed? | 02:12 |
| Autoscum | after which it won't run, and the other adept "fades" away | 02:12 |
| Dr_willis | !fixadept | 02:13 |
| ubotu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 02:13 |
| Autoscum | i restarted X to attempt to fix it | 02:13 |
| Dr_willis | It may be a lock file. :) restarting X wont fix that. | 02:13 |
| Autoscum | yeah, that fixed it | 02:13 |
| Autoscum | thanks a lot :) | 02:13 |
| stdin | draik: it should work then, make sure you have libdvdnav4, libdvdplay0 and libdvdread3 installed too | 02:14 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: libdvdplay0 is not found | 02:15 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: This is my friend's computer | 02:15 |
| stdin | that one may be an older package for feisty... | 02:16 |
| Dr_willis | !find libdvdplay | 02:16 |
| Dr_willis | Only time i play a dvd is when i rip them to hd. :) | 02:16 |
| ubotu | Package/file libdvdplay does not exist in gutsy | 02:16 |
| jagcorvair | Dr_willis: Nothing found with apt-cache search libdvdplay | 02:16 |
| tekteen | !info libdvdcss2 | 02:17 |
| Dr_willis | !find libdvd | 02:17 |
| ubotu | Package libdvdcss2 does not exist in gutsy | 02:17 |
| ubotu | Found: libdvdnav-dev, libdvdnav4, libdvdread-dev, libdvdread3 | 02:17 |
| vzduch | libdvdcss2 is neither in universe nor in multiverse.. you can find it in seveas or medibuntu | 02:17 |
| vzduch | !medibuntu | 02:18 |
| ubotu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 02:18 |
| Dr_willis | or theres a script i recall in the /usr/share/docs/SOMTHING dir that can installit | 02:18 |
| jagcorvair | I have libdvdread3 and libdvdnav4 installed and current | 02:18 |
| stdin | sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh | 02:18 |
| Dr_willis | http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/deb/libdvdcss2_1.2.5-1_i386.deb | 02:19 |
| Dr_willis | :) was what it grabbed.. that was quick | 02:20 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: I just ran that command | 02:20 |
| vzduch | 1.2.5? a bit old imho.. | 02:20 |
| jagcorvair | still unable to play a DVD | 02:20 |
| vzduch | is that install script of Hoary fame? o0 | 02:20 |
| hagabaka | hmm | 02:20 |
| Dr_willis | how new would it need to be. :) they come out with some new dvds? :P | 02:20 |
| ardchoille | stdin: You can also add the medibuntu repo, install libdvdcss2 and it'll get updated automatically | 02:20 |
| vzduch | medibuntu has 1.2.9.. which is already some 2 years old as well afair | 02:21 |
| stdin | ardchoille: to get it updated, but not installed | 02:21 |
| jagcorvair | With nosrednaekim's help, I was able to at least get it to recognize the DVD for the prompt. Data DVD still doesn't mount. | 02:21 |
| ardchoille | stdin: you can install it from medibuntu, I did | 02:21 |
| stdin | ardchoille: yes, but you can install it with that script | 02:21 |
| ardchoille | true, but it won't be updated, right? | 02:21 |
| jagcorvair | ardchoille: It got updated | 02:22 |
| vzduch | stdin: which is pretty pointless, if w/ the script you get an outdated version and need to update it anyway | 02:22 |
| stdin | yep, but there isn't much difference between the sources | 02:22 |
| * stdin has looked and knows | 02:22 | |
| ardchoille | stdin: and the version in medibuntu is more recent than what that script will install | 02:23 |
| vzduch | I think I remember that the last time the libdvdcss2 pkgs were rolled anew it was because of a security flaw | 02:23 |
| hagabaka | does Load "glx" mean the same glx as xserver-glx? | 02:23 |
| stdin | the actual algorithm is unchanged, so the older one works with everything the new one does | 02:23 |
| tekteen | stdin: It will not change because of old dvd players | 02:24 |
| tekteen | blueray on the other hand needs all new players for a reason (DRM) :-( | 02:25 |
| * lavacano201014 disconnects [/ame] | 02:25 | |
| vzduch | lavacano201014: amsgs are lame.. :D | 02:26 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: Dr_willis: This is the error message I get in details... | 02:31 |
| jagcorvair | 06:31:14 PM: xine: cannot find input plugin for MRL [dvd:///dev/scd1] | 02:31 |
| jagcorvair | 06:31:14 PM: xine: input plugin cannot open MRL [dvd:///dev/scd1] | 02:31 |
| jagcorvair | 06:31:10 PM: xine: found input plugin : DVD Navigator | 02:31 |
| stdin | take off one slash | 02:32 |
| stdin | or two, not sure actually | 02:32 |
| jagcorvair | How | 02:32 |
| jagcorvair | That is there by default, no? | 02:32 |
| stdin | open the URL: dvd://dev/scd1 | 02:33 |
| jagcorvair | I saw that as well and wondered about it, but figured it's probably nothing. | 02:33 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: bash: dvd://dev/scd1: No such file or directory | 02:33 |
| stdin | "open the URL" does not mean "run the command" | 02:34 |
| stdin | open the URL in kaffeine | 02:34 |
| mph | still having issues with systemsettings; any idea why? here is part of the error: kio (KSycoca): ERROR: No database available! | 02:34 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: Did it in Kaffeine as well. It was taking a while... | 02:35 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: Nothing. Still the same. I put / and // in front of dev | 02:35 |
| stdin | opening the URL (Ctrl-U) "dvd://dev/scd0" in kaffeine works here | 02:37 |
| vzduch | stdin: 'dvd:///dev/scd0' is the correct syntax | 02:38 |
| Autoscum | !direct rendering | 02:38 |
| Autoscum | err | 02:38 |
| Autoscum | can anyone tell me how i can check if i have direct rendering on? | 02:38 |
| vzduch | with 'dvd://' being the protocol denominator, and '/dev/scd0' the path to the device | 02:38 |
| stdin | vzduch: seems both work (but local url should only have one slash) | 02:39 |
| ardchoille | Autoscum: glxinfo | grep render | 02:39 |
| stdin | like file:/ URLs | 02:39 |
| jagcorvair | vzduch: So do it as dvd:///dev/scd1 ? | 02:39 |
| Autoscum | yes, thank you :P | 02:39 |
| vzduch | jagcorvair: that would be the other drive, if you have 2 | 02:39 |
| stdin | dvd:///dev/scd1 actually opens //dev/scd0 | 02:39 |
| stdin | *//dev/scd1 | 02:39 |
| jagcorvair | vzduch: first drive is CD burner, no DVD | 02:39 |
| ardchoille | I know I can do system:/ and man:/ in konqueror. But, what other things can I do? | 02:41 |
| Dr_willis | check out the kde help for 'kioslaves' | 02:41 |
| Dr_willis | it has info on them there. apt:/ is another and smb:/ | 02:41 |
| Dr_willis | and proberly a dozen others i dont rember :) | 02:41 |
| ardchoille | Dr_willis: Ah, thanks | 02:41 |
| stdin | lots, help:/ audiocd:/ apt:/ smb:/ nfs:/ sftp:/ etc... | 02:42 |
| Dr_willis | fish:/ | 02:42 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 02:42 |
| ardchoille | Wow, I need to be making bookmarks for these | 02:42 |
| stdin | no fish, just eaten :) | 02:42 |
| Dr_willis | theres no porn:/ | 02:42 |
| vzduch | lo | 02:42 |
| ardchoille | haha | 02:42 |
| vzduch | lol | 02:42 |
| jagcorvair | lol | 02:43 |
| stdin | applications:/ is a good one if kicker dies | 02:43 |
| jagcorvair | What else could I be missing? | 02:43 |
| stdin | are you on gutsy? | 02:44 |
| stdin | if so, try installing "kubuntu-restricted-extras" to grab everything you can | 02:44 |
| jagcorvair | Yes | 02:44 |
| jagcorvair | stdin: Already installed | 02:45 |
| stdin | then you should have everything | 02:45 |
| vzduch | as far as my Fedora 7 is concerned, the only libdvd* files you need are libdvdread, libdvdnav and libdvdcss | 02:45 |
| stdin | try in another player maybe | 02:45 |
| vzduch | another possibility would be that you just need to wait a little longer for the popup window to appear.. I have that w/ audio CDs | 02:46 |
| jagcorvair | Codeine didn't work | 02:47 |
| Nyle | hey | 02:47 |
| stdin | I'd say to try mplayer, if it doesn't play in that then VLC | 02:47 |
| Nyle | what do you do with codeine is not good for you | 02:47 |
| Nyle | i would say to try SMPlayer | 02:48 |
| stdin | yeah, mplayer | 02:48 |
| Nyle | its based on mlayer, and uses it, but is a full fledg media player | 02:48 |
| jagcorvair | gxine failed | 02:48 |
| stdin | it IS mplayer, it's just a GUI | 02:48 |
| Nyle | smplayer is awesome | 02:48 |
| Nyle | its better than a gui | 02:48 |
| Nyle | its a super gui | 02:48 |
| Nyle | fo real | 02:48 |
| stdin | I know what it is, smplayer is a Qt3/KDE/Qt4 GUI to mplayer | 02:49 |
| jagcorvair | mplayer failed | 02:49 |
| stdin | mplayer should have posted a (rather verbose) error message, pastebin it | 02:50 |
| jagcorvair | KMPlayer states: Player xine not running | 02:50 |
| [ka]killer | humm | 02:50 |
| [ka]killer | you may be having the same problem i had eariler | 02:50 |
| [ka]killer | join #xine for help with xine isues | 02:50 |
| [ka]killer | they helped me out alot | 02:50 |
| vzduch | jagcorvair: you have it set to use the Xine backend.. set it to use the MPlayer backend | 02:50 |
| jagcorvair | vzduch: Set which? How? | 02:51 |
| vzduch | KMPlayer | 02:51 |
| [ka]killer | i just use kaffeine | 02:51 |
| jagcorvair | On my computer, I use kaffeine without a problem. This is my friend's computer and it's a pain. | 02:51 |
| [ka]killer | has he tried VLC? | 02:52 |
| [ka]killer | sorry if this has already been asked, i r slowpoke | 02:53 |
| ardchoille | Dr_willis: Thanks for the kioslaves tip, lots of urls there :) | 02:53 |
| Dr_willis | Yep - it pays to explore the Help docs. :) | 02:53 |
| ardchoille | Indeed | 02:53 |
| Autoscum | hey, guys, i installed a package called "crystalspace" it's a 3d game development kit | 02:53 |
| Dr_willis | theres some FUSE addons that let you access the kioslaves stuff as if they were directories i hear also. | 02:53 |
| Autoscum | but i cant find it in the menu | 02:53 |
| Dr_willis | but ive never tried it. | 02:54 |
| Autoscum | where can i run it from? :/ | 02:54 |
| Dr_willis | !info crystalspace | 02:54 |
| ubotu | crystalspace: Multiplatform 3D Game Development Kit. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 38139 kB, installed size 94956 kB | 02:54 |
| Dr_willis | Autoscum, it may not be a actual runable game. | 02:54 |
| Autoscum | it's a game development kit... | 02:54 |
| Autoscum | li:P | 02:54 |
| Dr_willis | check out apt:/ in konqueror to see what files it installed and check its docs. | 02:54 |
| Autoscum | ignore the li.. | 02:54 |
| jagcorvair | [ka]killer: VLC won't work | 02:55 |
| [ka]killer | o | 02:55 |
| [ka]killer | dam | 02:55 |
| Dr_willis | or is it apt:\ | 02:55 |
| [ka]killer | when xine gave me isues mplayer and vlc were the only 2 that worked | 02:55 |
| vzduch | good night folks .) | 02:55 |
| vzduch | :) | 02:55 |
| jagcorvair | vzduch: How do I change the engine? | 02:55 |
| jagcorvair | To KMPlayer | 02:55 |
| vzduch | hmm.. I don't have KMPlayer installed here.. can't tell out of my head :( | 02:56 |
| vzduch | anyway, I'm off for tonight | 02:56 |
| Autoscum | whatever, i'm off too | 02:56 |
| Autoscum | it's 5 AM almost | 02:56 |
| Autoscum | so.. 'night all :D | 02:56 |
| jagcorvair | How do I change the engine to Kmplayer? | 02:57 |
| [ka]killer | settings? | 02:57 |
| jagcorvair | [ka]killer: Ok. I have a tab for xine and mplayer | 02:58 |
| jagcorvair | None of which state which I want for default | 02:58 |
| [ka]killer | ok.... no clue then | 02:58 |
| jagcorvair | Is there a way to change it on Kaffeine? | 02:59 |
| [ka]killer | ive used mplayer, vlc and kaffeine | 02:59 |
| [ka]killer | kaffeine can use gstreamer | 02:59 |
| [ka]killer | i dont know how it works but ive seen the plugin | 02:59 |
| biovore | depends kmplayer was designed orgional for mplayer.. xine was a easy add on they added.. | 02:59 |
| === [ka]killer is now known as kak[ZzZ] | ||
| jagcorvair | :( | 03:00 |
| jagcorvair | kak[ZzZ]: Thanks | 03:00 |
| jagcorvair | I just want to have Kaffeine working to play DVDs | 03:00 |
| biovore | jagcorvair: need dvd decss | 03:01 |
| biovore | !dvd | 03:01 |
| ubotu | For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 03:01 |
| jagcorvair | I have those. | 03:01 |
| jagcorvair | biovore: I'm almost at the end of this. | 03:01 |
| biovore | I use xine or mplayer for dvd's here.. | 03:02 |
| jagcorvair | I use Kaffeine on my desktop | 03:02 |
| jagcorvair | I copied all of my packages to this computer | 03:02 |
| jagcorvair | Everything should be identical | 03:02 |
| jagcorvair | Right? | 03:02 |
| biovore | maybe.. | 03:02 |
| mrtimbo | !kernel | 03:03 |
| ubotu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages | 03:03 |
| flake | has the samba repo been fixed yet | 03:04 |
| stdin | flake: should be, worked here | 03:05 |
| flake | thanks, was offline for a couple of days | 03:05 |
| flake | it was | 03:06 |
| jagcorvair | biovore: in kaffeine, should I have dvd.device (device used for DVD playback) pointed to /dev/dvd or /dev/scd1? | 03:06 |
| biovore | I think /dev/dvd is a symlink to your dvd device.. | 03:07 |
| biovore | use your actual device.. can't fail.. (if you have the correct permissions) | 03:08 |
| biovore | If you use a command line program like mplayer, if you don't have decss, it will complain alot and you get blocky video with green in it. | 03:08 |
| jagcorvair | biovore: if you have the correct permissions? How do I check on that? | 03:09 |
| bobleny | Is there a way to reset Konqueror's file association settings? | 03:10 |
| jagcorvair | !dolphin | 03:10 |
| ubotu | Dolphin, or more properly D3lphin, is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror - Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory and inode/system_directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin. | 03:10 |
| jagcorvair | bobleny: That's for you | 03:11 |
| jagcorvair | !dolphin | bobleny | 03:11 |
| ubotu | bobleny: please see above | 03:11 |
| bobleny | I have dolphin.... | 03:11 |
| bobleny | I hate it... | 03:11 |
| stdin | read the info then | 03:11 |
| jagcorvair | bobleny: Follow the instructions from ubotu | 03:11 |
| hero | for some reason, when i try to configure the screensaver, the list is empty. anyone know if that's a bug or not? | 03:12 |
| === ubuntu is now known as genii | ||
| bobleny | Thats great and all, but I need to reset the image file associations.... | 03:14 |
| * genii sips a coffee | 03:14 | |
| hero | yeah, so if i go to the screensaver settings (using gutsy), the screensaver list is empty | 03:15 |
| hero | n/m | 03:16 |
| hero | guess you have to be root | 03:16 |
| hero | or not? | 03:16 |
| hero | hm | 03:16 |
| hero | i tried to change the screensaver using kdesu kcontrol | 03:16 |
| hero | doesn't affect anything though | 03:16 |
| SudoKing | How do I set the screen resolution? | 03:17 |
| hero | guess no one cares :~( | 03:18 |
| alfonso | hello! i just bought a dell inspiron 1420 and it came with vista (i had no choice), i formatted the hd and installed kubuntu gusty | 03:18 |
| hagabaka | hero: you don't need to use kdesu for changing screen saver | 03:18 |
| hero | hagabaka: well, if i just run the kcontrol for it, i have no list of screen savers. if i run it kdesu i have the list. but changing it doesn't do anything | 03:19 |
| hero | so i'm not sure if it's a gutsy bug or not | 03:19 |
| ardchoille | hero: Knowing this channel, it isn't that no one cares, more likely no one has ever seen that problem and knows how to fix it. | 03:19 |
| hero | ardchoille: yeah, i know. sorry for whining | 03:19 |
| alfonso | two things are still not working, the webcam is still not working | 03:19 |
| hero | it's just weird | 03:19 |
| alfonso | its a mounted webcam | 03:19 |
| hero | i tried to reinstall the screen saver packages, but it makes no difference | 03:20 |
| ardchoille | hero: Wait, there are no scr's in the list when you view it as user but when you view it as root, they are there? | 03:20 |
| hero | yep | 03:20 |
| hero | weird, eh? | 03:20 |
| ardchoille | hero: Been playing with permissions on system files/folders? | 03:20 |
| hero | nope | 03:20 |
| ardchoille | Wel it sounds like the read perms on the scr's have changed | 03:20 |
| hero | where are they located usually? | 03:21 |
| ardchoille | mine are in /usr/lib/xscreensaver | 03:21 |
| hero | k | 03:21 |
| ardchoille | Not sure if yours will be there too | 03:21 |
| SudoKing | how do I set the screen resolution? | 03:21 |
| hero | ardchoille: in that list, all entries have read permissions | 03:22 |
| hero | for example: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 43508 2007-06-11 18:01 penrose | 03:22 |
| ardchoille | SudoKing: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 03:22 |
| SudoKing | thanks | 03:22 |
| alfonso | how do i enable a fixed webcam on a dell inspiron 1420? | 03:22 |
| ardchoille | hero: It was just a guess | 03:22 |
| hero | yeah, it doesn't make any sense | 03:22 |
| ardchoille | hero: Yeah, it's weird | 03:23 |
| hero | maybe i should purge all the screen saver packages? and then reinstall? | 03:23 |
| ardchoille | You could try that | 03:23 |
| hero | alright | 03:24 |
| Dr_willis | could try making a new user - see if they have the proper settings. | 03:28 |
| wolf8 | morning | 03:29 |
| hero | yea, i guess | 03:30 |
| hero | well purging them doesn't make any difference | 03:30 |
| hero | kdescreensaver relies on xscreensaver, though, right? | 03:30 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. My server just crashed.. ssh sessionis locked up.. other remote programs locked up.. | 03:31 |
| Dr_willis | Bummber | 03:31 |
| Dr_willis | wonder what did that. :( Now i have to walk all the way downstairs to reset it. :P | 03:32 |
| hagabaka | is the compiz and compiz-kde packages for "Compiz-Fusion"? | 03:32 |
| ardchoille | Dr_willis: yeah.. walking.. bummer :P | 03:32 |
| Dr_willis | hagabaka, yes compiz in kubuntu/ubuntu is compiz-fusion | 03:32 |
| hagabaka | ok | 03:33 |
| vasilisa | why wont gparted finish scanning my devices?? | 03:34 |
| Dr_willis | brb.. got to walk all the way downstairs! :) heh . | 03:34 |
| sFEARs | hello | 03:34 |
| ardchoille | Dr_willis: Why don't you just ssh.. oh wait | 03:35 |
| SudoKing | Is there a way for me to set the resolution to higher than 1024x768? | 03:35 |
| ardchoille | SudoKing: That command I gave you should have allowed you to do that | 03:36 |
| SudoKing | I tried..but the screen stayed the same.. | 03:36 |
| SudoKing | after I changed it | 03:36 |
| ardchoille | SudoKing: Did you restart xorg? | 03:36 |
| SudoKing | no how do I do that? | 03:36 |
| ardchoille | save all your work, then do: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 03:37 |
| ardchoille | SudoKing: That command wil restar x but kde will exit in the process | 03:37 |
| hero | i've never been able to get kdm to work | 03:38 |
| hero | i have to use gdm for some reason because everytime i use kdm, it always logs in to like an empty session | 03:38 |
| sFEARs | if i compile a driver under one kernel, will it work with a different version of the same kernel.. example 2.6.20-15 and 2.6.20-16 | 03:39 |
| sFEARs | or i guess i should say should it work? | 03:40 |
| ardchoille | sFEARs: Would this be an nvidia driver? | 03:40 |
| === kevin is now known as Artificial | ||
| sFEARs | no.. actually a driver to get some special keys to work on my laptop keyboard | 03:42 |
| ardchoille | Ah, ok | 03:42 |
| hero | weird | 03:42 |
| sFEARs | my internal wireless needs to be turned on by a special key, and i can't seem to get header files for my low latency kernal to comiple the driver i found for it | 03:42 |
| hero | apparently kubuntu-desktop was never installed? | 03:43 |
| ardchoille | hero: That's odd. Did you initially install gnome and then kde? | 03:43 |
| sFEARs | i sucessfully compiled it and i have the binary file.. but i'm kinda n00b and i'm not sure what to do with the binary file | 03:43 |
| hero | ardchoille: back in the day, yeah | 03:43 |
| hero | i used an ubuntu livecd to install initially, then switched to feisty | 03:44 |
| ardchoille | hero: It may be that you install kde instead of kubuntu-desktop | 03:44 |
| hero | then upgraded to gutsy | 03:44 |
| sFEARs | or if it is even configured to work with my -16 kernel since it was compiled on the -15 kernel | 03:44 |
| hero | ardchoille: ? | 03:44 |
| sFEARs | any ideas? | 03:44 |
| sFEARs | i don't even know what the hell a kernel is.. but i've managed to get a couple things working so far | 03:45 |
| ardchoille | hero: That's one of the reasons I do't do upgrades, it just isn't as clean as a fresh install. | 03:45 |
| hero | yeah | 03:47 |
| hero | i could use a fresh instal | 03:47 |
| hero | but i don't want to back up everything | 03:47 |
| hero | and i'm hoping downloading kubuntu-desktop won't break the system | 03:47 |
| hero | esp since it's getting linux-headers and such | 03:47 |
| hero | maybe it will get the boot splash to work, though | 03:49 |
| sFEARs | i can't get my boot splash to work either | 03:49 |
| sFEARs | i think it has something to do with the size of the mbr or something | 03:49 |
| hero | yeah, gutsy's is broken | 03:50 |
| Tm_T | erm | 03:50 |
| hero | i'm sure there's a fix, but i've been too lazy to do anything about it | 03:50 |
| sFEARs | something about needing to be 1k and actually being 4k or something | 03:50 |
| hero | i still can't figure out how to disable the bell in xchat | 03:50 |
| hero | pisses me off | 03:50 |
| sFEARs | what the bell? | 03:51 |
| sFEARs | what's* | 03:51 |
| hero | it's a *ding* sound | 03:51 |
| hero | or a *beep* sound | 03:51 |
| sFEARs | system sounds? | 03:51 |
| === DivideZer is now known as _ooooooooo | ||
| ardchoille | hero: Does xchat have a menu item to edit "notifications"? | 03:52 |
| hero | dunno | 03:52 |
| sFEARs | xchat/settings/prefs/sounds | 03:52 |
| === _ooooooooo is now known as DivideZer | ||
| ardchoille | That would take care of the bell I would think | 03:52 |
| sFEARs | it's in there | 03:52 |
| sFEARs | more specific... xchat/settings/prefs/chatting/sounds | 03:52 |
| hero | it has a sounds menu, but "beep" has no entry | 03:53 |
| ubuntu | hi | 03:53 |
| jasonago | anyone has experience installing xampp in kubuntu? Are there any "one-shot" installer for lamp? | 03:53 |
| sFEARs | go thru and play each sound untill you find the one you don't like and turn it off | 03:53 |
| vasilisa | !fsck | 03:53 |
| ubotu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 03:53 |
| ubuntu | i need help | 03:53 |
| jasonago | ubuntu: Just ask.... | 03:54 |
| sFEARs | way to state the obvious ubuntu | 03:54 |
| hero | sFEARs: they're all turned off | 03:54 |
| ubuntu | how do i keep windows while installing Ubuntu? | 03:54 |
| sFEARs | then it's not xchat causing the bell? | 03:54 |
| jasonago | ubuntu: create a seperate partition in your harddrive...one for linux, one for windows... | 03:55 |
| === _czessi is now known as Czessi | ||
| sFEARs | if your using the live cd ubuntu it will prompt you to resize the partition manually.. resize leaving windows on one part and install linux on the addition partition and it will give you a dual boot system | 03:55 |
| daffytheduck | hi ive got a problem with my internett after about an hour or so It drops out and i have to open up the network config and refresh the connection can anyone help thnx | 03:56 |
| sFEARs | once you have linux installed you may need to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file, but it's fairly easy and usually doesn't need done | 03:56 |
| hero | xchat is the only program that has a bell, though | 03:57 |
| hero | if i do a backspace in a terminal, i get a visible bell - which is good | 03:57 |
| sFEARs | if it's a sound xchat is sending i would imagine it would have to be in the xchat sounds prefs | 03:58 |
| hero | but it's not | 03:58 |
| hero | all the sound entries are empty | 03:58 |
| sFEARs | try changing the sound files directory | 04:00 |
| daffytheduck | hi ive got a problem with my internett after about an hour or so It drops out and i have to open up the network config and refresh the connection can anyone help thnx | 04:04 |
| hero | yeah, changing the beep to another sound makes no difference | 04:06 |
| sFEARs | does anyone know the /server command flag to connect to a separte network | 04:09 |
| Stingball | Since I upgraded to Gutsey I seem to have taked a 40% hit in proformance can I get some help finding out why? | 04:09 |
| sFEARs | i used to use /server -m... but that doesn't seem to work anymore | 04:09 |
| sFEARs | what did you upgrade from Stingball? | 04:10 |
| Stingball | Now ever windoze si faster | 04:10 |
| Stingball | Fesity | 04:10 |
| sFEARs | windows has always been faster for me | 04:10 |
| Stingball | my feistry was faster | 04:10 |
| sFEARs | is everything slower... or just boot, just opening apps? | 04:10 |
| Stingball | everything | 04:11 |
| sFEARs | mabey use a different kernel? | 04:11 |
| Stingball | there used to be IDE dma settings cant find them | 04:11 |
| wols | Stingball: hdparm | 04:11 |
| Stingball | I dont know I have upgraded other machines | 04:11 |
| wols | also dmeg|grep bm | 04:12 |
| wols | sFEARs: depends on the irc client. mine uses /connect | 04:12 |
| Stingball | wols: thanks | 04:12 |
| sFEARs | connect by itslef for a separte network connection? | 04:12 |
| mot_ | stupid question: how do you install a .deb by hand? | 04:12 |
| mot_ | (sorry, used to rpm-based systems) | 04:12 |
| sFEARs | "/connect irc.whatever.com"? | 04:12 |
| mot_ | sFEARs, some clients use "/server irc.whatever.com" | 04:13 |
| wols | mot_: dpkg | 04:13 |
| mot_ | .whois sFEARs | 04:13 |
| sFEARs | well if i use the /server command it disconnects my current server and connects | 04:13 |
| Stingball | wols: whats the best setting for hdpram | 04:13 |
| mot_ | sFEARs, in xchat, hit CTRL + N (to open a new tab in xchat) and then type: /server irc.whatever.net | 04:14 |
| sFEARs | i used to the /server -m and the -m flag connected to separate | 04:14 |
| wols | Stingball: does not exist | 04:14 |
| mot_ | hit ctrl + n to open a new tab in xchat | 04:14 |
| mot_ | then do it. | 04:14 |
| mot_ | sorry | 04:14 |
| mot_ | ctrl + t | 04:14 |
| sFEARs | that would work but i'd rather do it directally from the command line | 04:15 |
| Stingball | wols: dmeg not found | 04:16 |
| wols | dmesg | 04:17 |
| sFEARs | xchat/settings/prefs/chatting/alerts.. uncheck all make a beep sound on | 04:17 |

| sFEARs | is the xscreensaver separate from the standard screen savers?.. i have two separate screen savers on another computer.. black screen w/ a big x that floats around.. i can't figure out how to turn it off | 04:25 |
| Stingball | sFEARs: I belive they are both listed in the gui | 04:26 |
| hero | i'm reading from this: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+question/5488 | 04:26 |

| bobito | ...silence...... | 04:31 |
| wols | bobito: sure. google for "smart questions" | 04:32 |
| bobito | thanks wols | 04:32 |
| wols | alternatively workaround.org has a "how to get help on irc". sorely recommendede | 04:32 |
| bobito | simple, claim i'm getting sick of linux users who don't help, and bitch about how much better windows was? | 04:33 |
| sFEARs | i would try the create a new user account.. log in.. and see if you have any screen savers | 04:33 |
| hero | i'm sure that will work | 04:33 |
| hero | i think it has something to do with xgl shit | 04:33 |
| hero | er, stuff | 04:34 |
| sFEARs | you mean how much better windows is? | 04:34 |
| sFEARs | you say was like it went somewhere. | 04:34 |
| bobito | not on my computer anymore, so relatively speaking, yea | 04:34 |
| bobito | it went away | 04:34 |
| sFEARs | IC | 04:35 |
| sFEARs | linux is absolutely a pain in the ass | 04:35 |
| bobito | i used to love it, just haven'y had time to play around since i got to college | 04:35 |
| sFEARs | yeah.. takes time | 04:36 |
| bobito | just installed gusty, wondering why adept won't show me any packages that aren't already installed | 04:36 |
| wols | bobito: that claim is an easy way to /ignore and depending on a ops mood, ban | 04:36 |
| hero | the screen saver list populates if i run kcontrol with root permissions | 04:36 |
| hero | but not if i do it myself | 04:36 |
| hero | and changing it with root permissions doesn't have any effect | 04:36 |
| wols | bobito: pastebin your sources.list | 04:36 |
| bobito | it was a bad attempt at a joke wols, sorry | 04:36 |
| bobito | normal sources.list document, except for the bottom few lines, claimes installer commented out some gutsy security pages | 04:39 |
| sFEARs | where can i change my user name in xchat | 04:39 |
| sFEARs | can't connect to a server becuase of an invalid user name but i can't find where to change it.. i remember setting it when i first opened | 04:40 |
| hero | try #xchat | 04:40 |
| sFEARs | thanks | 04:40 |
| hero | so is there a directory i can delete that lists the screensavers? | 04:40 |
| hero | that will repopulate or something? | 04:40 |
| bobito | wols? | 04:41 |
| wols | bobito: either you do what I ask you to do or I can't/won't help you | 04:42 |
| bobito | what exactly is pastebin then? | 04:42 |
| bobito | sorry | 04:42 |

| bobito | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44976/ | 04:43 |
| bobito | thanks | 04:43 |
| hero | even if i can login as another user and there is a list, that doesn't tell me how to get the list to populate in my user | 04:43 |
| hero | bleh | 04:43 |
| sFEARs | found it under network list | 04:44 |
| bobito | !paste http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/44976/ | 04:45 |
| hero | damn it. all i want to do is change the screen saver! i've tried everything and STILL NO LIST! | 04:47 |
| hero | and i wonder why even in the bug listings there is no real fix for it | 04:48 |
| hero | i can't believe no one else has had this problem | 04:48 |
| wols | bobito: everything except your install cdrom is commented out. of course there are no packages | 04:48 |
| hero | i wish i had never upgraded to gutsy | 04:48 |
| sFEARs | hero.. have you logged in as a new user? | 04:48 |
| hero | what a worthless release | 04:49 |
| bobito | yea, i just realized that | 04:49 |
| sFEARs | might fix you right up | 04:49 |
| bobito | are all of them supposed to be uncommented | 04:49 |
| bobito | or only some of them? | 04:49 |
| hero | what makes you think that will make any difference? | 04:49 |
| wols | pretty much | 04:49 |
| hero | the screen saver list works with another user. i want it to work with MY user. | 04:49 |
| bobito | so I should just go through deleting the lines "line commented out by... | 04:49 |
| bobito | and getting rid of the # in front of all the URL ones | 04:50 |
| wols | you should go and delete the # in from of deb* lines too | 04:50 |
| bobito | what are those? | 04:50 |
| wols | those are youre repositories you want | 04:52 |
| bobito | now, for hopefully my last stupid question, It won't let me delete anything, do I need to log in as root/admin or something? | 04:52 |
| wols | to edit that file? yes | 04:53 |
| bobito | how? | 04:53 |
| wols | become root, or start your editor as root | 04:53 |
| bobito | sudo su | 04:53 |
| bobito | still says permission denied | 04:54 |
| bobito | ya know what, this I can probably find online | 04:54 |
| bobito | thanks for all the help wols | 04:55 |
| wols | sudo bash | 04:55 |
| wols | nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 04:55 |

| vbgunz | hydrogen: hmm. I did exactly as you said. now when I start amarok. I can see a blank placeholder for it in the system tray... but it appears it still doesn't load :( | 06:13 |
| hydrogen | try killall amarokapp | 06:13 |
| hydrogen | then again | 06:13 |
| vbgunz | hydrogen: heh, I did, even apt-get install --resintall | 06:13 |
| vbgunz | I'll try again, one sec | 06:13 |

| oriongaby | hello | 06:15 |
| vbgunz | hydrogen: amarok is problematic on GUtsy huh? | 06:15 |
| justin___ | can anyone tell me why some linux OSs still use command line part of the time for install and etc? | 06:16 |
| NickPresta | Any way to resolve the problem of log_daemon_msg not being found? | 06:16 |
| justin___ | orion | 06:18 |
| vbgunz | hydrogen: figured it out | 06:18 |
| justin___ | is anyone going to answer me? | 06:19 |
| NickPresta | ah nevermind. I solved my own problem. I'll just use echo -n instead of sourcing /lib/lsb/init-functions. | 06:19 |
| vbgunz | something about another account having mount dialogs open messed up the amarok and kaffeine... the only difference between those 2 is amarok wouldn't show up and kaffeine would... kaffeine would freeze though if I tried to play someting | 06:19 |
| vbgunz | nevermind... amarok is still busted... it shows up but won't play... it now freezes... kaffeine plays it now.... damn... | 06:22 |
| vbgunz | forget it, amarok and kaffeine is busted... wow. I am burnt beyond compare | 06:24 |
| vbgunz | heh forget it. amarok is on crack along with the rest of ebverything else | 06:26 |

| ardchoille | That word "proposed" keeps me away from it | 07:05 |

| NickPresta | only if you want to ever download the source instead of the binaries | 07:20 |
| NickPresta | I add those lines on a need-to-have basis | 07:20 |

| NickPresta | strange | 07:24 |
| ardchoille | NickPresta: IS that good? | 07:24 |
| NickPresta | you have the same number of packages that I have but I have more repos in my sources.list | 07:25 |
| NickPresta | actually, i only have a couple more repos and they're small. I suppose it makes sense | 07:26 |

| reldruh | hello. I just did a fresh reinstall of Kubuntu from discs sent to me by shipit and now whenever I try and install a package, I get the error message that the changes could not be commited, possibly because of an error downloading the packages or because the commit would break packages. This happens from the adept updater. Does anybody know the cause and or a solution? | 07:36 |
| ardchoille | reldruh: Well, the first thing I would do is.. | 07:37 |
| ardchoille | make sure the sources are updated: sudo apt-get update | 07:37 |
| ardchoille | then try updating: sudo apt-get upgrade | 07:37 |
| MilitantPotato | where are the k9copy config files located? | 07:37 |
| ardchoille | and see if the error is still there | 07:37 |
| ardchoille | MilitantPotato: ~/.kde/share/config | 07:38 |
| MilitantPotato | reldruh: I was getting that error because of the samba bug | 07:38 |
| ardchoille | There are two of them: k9copy and k9copyrc | 07:38 |
| reldruh | ardchoille: still there :-( | 07:38 |
| reldruh | MilitantPotato: a samba bug? | 07:38 |
| MilitantPotato | !sambabug | 07:38 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sambabug - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:38 |
| MilitantPotato | must be gone :P | 07:39 |
| NickPresta | MilitantPotato, it was fixed today | 07:39 |
| ardchoille | I was told that the samba bug has been fixed | 07:39 |
| reldruh | it's odd, adept says the packages are installed, even after giving me the error | 07:39 |
| reldruh | and I checked to see if the files were there and they are | 07:39 |
| reldruh | could I just be getting the message but the packages are still being installed? And would I be affected by the samba bug if I'm not using samba at all? This is a fresh install, I haven't done anything but try the adept updater | 07:40 |
| ardchoille | My adept notifier is running, has been running all day. But it doesn't pop up in the tray until I do sudo apt-get update. Why? | 07:40 |
| MilitantPotato | ardchoille: what was the command you used to find those files? | 07:41 |
| ardchoille | MilitantPotato: (in $HOME) ls .kde/share/config | grep k9copy | 07:41 |

| GrahamA | jdlizard: Yes... yes I can... | 09:04 |
| [ifr0g] | no i can... | 09:05 |
| jdlizard | ok i upgraded to gusty now ndiswrapper makes my system lock up | 09:05 |
| jdlizard | never did in feisty | 09:05 |
| GrahamA | jdlizard: Be specific | 09:05 |
| GrahamA | Locks up when what happens? | 09:05 |
| jdlizard | modprobe but maybe 30 seconds after that | 09:05 |
| GrahamA | In adept, purge the packages and reinstall them. | 09:06 |
| jdlizard | i have done this | 09:06 |
| jdlizard | and i installed also from source | 09:06 |
| jdlizard | didnt work either | 09:06 |
| jdlizard | i have feisty on another partition and it runs fine | 09:07 |
| jdlizard | im thinking maybe something to do with the kernel change | 09:08 |
| jdlizard | so what do ya think | 09:09 |
| TAndy | Hi everybody. Suppose two installations, the old, used, "A" and the fresh "B", on two partitions. Is there any way to get all what has been installed on A to automatically installed (via the package-manager) on B? | 09:15 |
| ardchoille | TAndy: I've never tried it but others have said this works: | 09:16 |
| ardchoille | TAndy: (get the package list) dpkg --get-selections > packagelist.txt | 09:17 |
| ardchoille | TAndy: (install them on the other box) sudo dpkg --set-selections << packagelist.txt && sudo apt-get install | 09:18 |
| ardchoille | TAndy: You should look those up in the man pages to make sure they are correct as I have never performed those commands, but it sounds like it would work. | 09:18 |
| TAndy | ardchoille: Wow! I'll mumble on it instantly. Thanks! | 09:19 |
| ardchoille | TAndy: Or you can make a disk image of box "A" and install that image on box "B" like I do. I use that method to make all 11 computers here identical. | 09:20 |
| ardchoille | TAndy: You can use System Rescue CD for that (it has PartImage on it) | 09:21 |
| ardchoille | !sysresccd | 09:21 |
| ubotu | SystemRescueCd is a Linux system on a bootable CD-ROM. It contains a number of admin tools including gparted and partimage. http://sysresccd.org/Main_Page | 09:21 |
| ardchoille | Making and restoring a disk image is much faster than installing packages via the package manager | 09:21 |
| TAndy | ardchoille:The prerequisite is to have, finally, a clean reinstallation without "dust", so the first solution seems exactly to be what I'm searching for. | 09:23 |
| ardchoille | Ah, ok. Yeah, doesn't bring over the "cruft" | 09:25 |

| TimS | Never heard of it :P | 10:08 |
| Ace2016 | neither have i, i just found a link to it, and i'm wondering if anyone uses it | 10:09 |
| Ace2016 | i want a good screenshot of it | 10:09 |
| Ace2016 | http://www.nongnu.org/ratpoison/ | 10:09 |
| ardchoille | Ace2016: iirc, ratpoison is a window manager, not a full desktop | 10:09 |
| Ace2016 | they have 2 screenshots, not that helpful | 10:09 |
| cap601 | @TimS - I've done that but the folder isn't there | 10:09 |
| Ace2016 | oh | 10:09 |
| Ace2016 | is it just me or do you only need like xserver, kwin and konsole to run apps? | 10:10 |
| TimS | cap601: It should be, are you in the same folder, and if its not there, maybe you deleted it :P | 10:10 |
| Ace2016 | kwin to window manage and konsole to lauch apps and look at the output | 10:10 |
| MilitantPotato | whats the default DVD size setting in k9copy? | 10:11 |
| cap601 | It's not there | 10:11 |
| jpatrick | Ace2016: by the looks of them I'm sticking with KDE | 10:11 |
| cap601 | Root probably has its own deleted items folder | 10:11 |
| TimS | Ace2016: Yes, sort of, many apps would have wider depenancies though | 10:11 |
| ardchoille | Ace2016: You don't even need xserver, some live cd's use kernel framebuffering and apps compiled against libsvga | 10:11 |
| cap601 | I've just run sudo dolphin which did work | 10:12 |
| Ace2016 | wow, thats slow isn't it? i just can't figure something like a web browser doing that | 10:12 |
| cap601 | Thanks anyway | 10:12 |
| ardchoille | Ace2016: If you want a light but fast window manager that has menu capability, try out fluxbox | 10:12 |
| TimS | fluxbox is nice | 10:12 |
| TimS | As is XFCE, thats fairly light | 10:13 |
| ardchoille | Yeah | 10:13 |
| TimS | Or go for CDE :P retro :P | 10:13 |
| Ace2016 | i'm proably going to try the one with the nicest screenshots first | 10:13 |
| TimS | lol | 10:13 |
| TimS | Kde :P | 10:13 |
| ardchoille | TimS: How would I get CDE in kubuntu? I thought that was proprietary (Solaris) | 10:14 |
| TimS | Hey WaltzingAlong | 10:14 |
| Ace2016 | yea i run kde now | 10:14 |
| TimS | ardchoille: I think your right, but I have seen it done. | 10:14 |
| WaltzingAlong | TimS: greetings | 10:14 |
| Ace2016 | ardchoille: is CDE open source? | 10:14 |
| TimS | It was most likely hacked, and I dont like it much anyway. Its not all solaris, is it? AIX uses CDE | 10:15 |
| ardchoille | Ace2016: I don't think so | 10:15 |
| ardchoille | TimS: Ah, good point | 10:15 |
| TimS | ardchoille: Solaris is moving/has moved to GNOME, by the way. | 10:16 |
| ardchoille | lol, says a lot about the usability of CDE | 10:16 |
| TimS | ardchoille: You can download linux binarys, but it comes at a price :P | 10:16 |
| TimS | Its old, it was good at the time, not any more | 10:17 |
| Ace2016 | grrr, i hate gnome, why is it spreading, oh for the love of god someone stop it spreading, kde4 where are youuuu???? | 10:18 |
| TimS | Plasmoids =o | 10:19 |
| TimS | They eat gnomes | 10:19 |
| Ace2016 | i just hope the basic version is light and fast and featureless enough for gnome users to jump shipt to kde | 10:19 |
| ardchoille | You can bet the gnome devs are keeping tabs on kde4 | 10:20 |
| TimS | It wont be, its looking fast, but light would be a strech, I dont see it as a problem, but its binarlies are a little bigger than KDE3 | 10:20 |
| Ace2016 | we just need something that loads to the desktop as fast as possible, thats what people think of as speed | 10:21 |
| TimS | Yeah | 10:22 |
| Ace2016 | oh and easier themes and stuff are great | 10:22 |
| TimS | Well, plasmoids are widgets so themes should be easier and theres plenty of eye candy when you first start up | 10:22 |
| TimS | But Kubuntu wont go KDE4 for another 12 months | 10:22 |
| TimS | Anyone know if theres a non-webpage strigi | 10:23 |
| WaltzingAlong | TimS: there is the applet | 10:24 |
| Ace2016 | oh well yay for debian sid | 10:24 |
| TimS | applet? | 10:24 |
| ardchoille | TimS: Thee is a strigi applet you can add to kicker | 10:24 |
| TimS | Yes, but it still returns results in a webpage | 10:25 |
| ardchoille | Ah, ok. I haven't used strigi, can't get it to work | 10:25 |
| TimS | Nah, its not as complete as beagle is | 10:25 |
| TimS | Right I gotta go out, Ill be back a bit later | 10:26 |

| Smonk | I decided to reboot my system (it had been a while) and it gets stuck on a black screen with a blinking cursor. When I go to safe mode, and I try to startx, it fails saying that (EE) Nvidia(0): Failed to read the NVIDIA Kernel modual | 14:59 |
| Smonk | I don't remember changing anything with my NVIDIA drivers.. | 15:00 |
| Smonk | Oh yeah, sorry, I'm using 7.10 | 15:00 |
| Smonk | Kubuntu | 15:00 |
| pag | Smonk, how did you install those drivers? | 15:01 |
| neville | Try installing the driver using Envy? | 15:01 |
| Smonk | Yes | 15:02 |
| Smonk | Envy, that's the program | 15:03 |
| pag | ooh... thet explains the problem... | 15:03 |
| Smonk | ahh crap | 15:03 |
| Smonk | lol, something told me that Envy couldn't be that easy | 15:03 |

| ubotu | envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 15:03 |
| Minataku | Hm. It used to have a clever little message. | 15:04 |
| Minataku | They keep changing things in the bot to make it less useful and more boring | 15:04 |
| neville | I just install the driver by sh /home/name/Desktop/NVIDIA*.run | 15:04 |
| neville | Then | 15:04 |
| neville | sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals --composite | 15:05 |
| neville | Works fine from that point on | 15:05 |
| pag | neville, have you updated kernel lately? :P | 15:05 |
| Smonk | ok, so what you're saying is, Reboot in safe mode.. Then use command sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals --composite ?? | 15:06 |
| neville | Yes, I just learnt to do it that way, and haven't bothered changing | 15:06 |
| neville | If it can't find the kernel module, wouldn't you need to reinstall the driver first to clear that up? | 15:06 |
| neville | If you want GUI back, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and setting video driver to vesa | 15:07 |
| neville | Then | 15:08 |

| ubotu | Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion | 15:14 |
| sMonk | Hey, neville -- just wanted to say thanks.. it seems to be working | 15:27 |
| sMonk | so now I guess the correct way to install my Nvidia drivers is to use "restricted drivers" and go from there? | 15:30 |
| sMonk | !Envy | 15:31 |
| ubotu | envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 15:31 |
| neville | What card do you use? | 15:31 |
| debian | WTF is envy? I want it! | 15:32 |
| sMonk | Geforce 6600 GT | 15:32 |
| neville | Go to the nVidia site, and get the driver that matches your card | 15:32 |
| neville | !! | 15:32 |
| neville | Same card!!!!!!!!!!!! | 15:32 |
| neville | <3 | 15:32 |
| sMonk | ok | 15:32 |
| sMonk | thanks | 15:32 |
| sMonk | again | 15:32 |
| neville | The latest driver will be fine | 15:32 |
| pag | sMonk, "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx" | 15:32 |
| neville | Then when it's downloaded | 15:32 |
| neville | Switch to shell (control + alt + F1) | 15:33 |
| neville | Login as root | 15:33 |
| neville | then | 15:33 |
| neville | /etc/init.d/kdm stop | 15:33 |
| neville | Switch back to same shell, then | 15:33 |
| neville | sh /path/to/driver/NVIDIA*.run | 15:33 |
| pag | !enter | neville | 15:33 |
| ubotu | neville: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 15:33 |
| neville | Sorry, it's bad habit | 15:33 |
| patricio | what can I use, to backup/synchronise my agenda on my mobile phone (Ericsson K800i) on kde(kubuntu gutsy gibbon) | 15:34 |
| patricio | ? | 15:34 |
| neville | Once that is done sMonk, do | 15:34 |
| sMonk | ok, should I download off the site, or should I use the "sudo apt-get" line | 15:34 |
| neville | sudo --add-argb-glx-visuals --composite | 15:34 |
| neville | Get it direct from their site | 15:35 |
| sMonk | ok | 15:35 |
| pag | sMonk, both work - latter works after kernel updates too | 15:35 |
| neville | Then /etc/init.d/kdm start | 15:35 |
| neville | Log in as yourself | 15:35 |
| neville | Open konsole | 15:35 |
| neville | sudo nvidia-settings | 15:35 |
| neville | Then select X Server Display Configuration, and set your resolution, refresh rate, etc | 15:36 |
| neville | Then Apply | 15:36 |
| sMonk | the only thing I know, is then I was installing 7.10, I noticed that I didn't get a change to enter in a "root" password.. just my main login.. I've tried logging in as root before and using my regular password it wont log me in | 15:36 |
| neville | And Save to X config, then try rebooting and see if the driver sticks | 15:36 |
| neville | Oh | 15:36 |
| neville | Open Konsole | 15:36 |
| neville | And type | 15:36 |
| pag | neville, do *not* use sudo with graphical apps - that's why there's kdesudo | 15:36 |
| neville | sudo passwd , then set the root password | 15:36 |
| neville | You do not control my warped way of doing things, besides, it gets the job done | 15:37 |
| neville | =) | 15:37 |
| sMonk | when you say, "switch back to the same shell" what do you mean? | 15:39 |
| pag | neville, sure... it's just the fact, taht using sudo with graphical apps might result in a pretty broken system in a long run... same with using drivers from outside the repositories | 15:39 |
| neville | Usually closing KDM that way results in it sitting at a black screen with a flashing cursor, so using control + alt + F1 goes back to the shell you were in before you closed KDM | 15:40 |
| sMonk | got ya | 15:40 |
| sMonk | so should I be using kdesudo?? | 15:40 |
| patricio | what is the best tool to use, to backup/synchronise my agenda from my mobile phone (Ericsson K800i) on kde(kubuntu gutsy gibbon)? | 15:41 |
| neville | Not on the shell when you're logged in as root | 15:41 |
| neville | But try it when the driver is installed, and sudo nvidia-xconfig -add-argb-glx-visuals --composite is done | 15:41 |
| pag | sMonk, IMHO you should use drivers from the repos... it's easier, and will save you from the problems after the next kernel upgrade | 15:41 |
| seezer | patricio: tried kmobiletools? | 15:41 |
| patricio | seezer: no, thanks | 15:42 |
| neville | What problems, just reinstall the driver for the new kernel the same way, and off you go =/ | 15:42 |
| seezer | patricio: i'd suggest using the 0.5* release (via kmobiletools.kde.org) | 15:42 |
| sMonk | oh boy, lol -- two diffrent methods | 15:42 |
| pag | neville, umm.. yeah.. isn't it easier when it's done automatically for you? | 15:43 |
| patricio | seezer, thanks a lot | 15:43 |
| seezer | patricio: still beta but way better than the release included in the kubuntu repositories | 15:43 |
| neville | Not for me | 15:43 |
| neville | I'm just not that sort of person | 15:43 |
| === alejandro is now known as Varekai | ||
| patricio | seezer, yes, it's 0.4.3.3 ... the same with imagemagick.. I wonder, why the repo versions are still older than releases from more than 3/4 year ago *g | 15:44 |
| seezer | patricio: in case of kmobiletools it's just based on the fact that there is no official release since that version | 15:45 |
| patricio | ah, ok | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | neville, you make it sound so easy , my experience taght me that when kernel update was installed , even the proprietary ATI driver no longer provided 3D or DRI on my setup ...so open source , if you can find one that works is prolly even more vulnerable. :( | 15:46 |
| patricio | is 1.7MB/s a normal speed for ethernet+usb2.0? | 15:46 |
| patricio | it seems to me a bit slow | 15:46 |
| seezer | ethernet via usb? *uargh* ;) | 15:47 |
| neville | Hey, I'm very very new to using this OS (Only started last year), and the way I learnt how to do things was from my girlfriend, who likes doing it this way too | 15:48 |
| neville | It essentially just rubbed off onto me | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | aha neville , blame the GF :) | 15:49 |
| neville | I'm not | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | just kidding | 15:49 |
| neville | Well, I am, but still, it's a great way! | 15:49 |
| patricio | seezer, no, I meant the connection: my laptop via ethernet cable to another server that has an attached usb harddrive :) | 15:51 |
| neville | It's okay, I'll let her know how 'flawed' her way is tomorrow =P | 15:51 |
| Harahu | See you guys later I am installing Kubuntu. Yay!! | 15:53 |
| nick_ | I have a question about tsclient, I'm trying to connect to my parents windows box back home and I've had them go through and make sure to allow remote connections etc, but here's my problem, I have their ip address, but they are behind a router, what do I put in the box to log in? | 15:53 |
| BluesKaj | !remote | 15:55 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about remote - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 15:55 |
| seezer | patricio: aah ;) | 15:56 |
| nick_ | I know that since we are not using a vpn I'll need the actual ip address, but how do I direct to the router and then to the specific computer? | 15:56 |
| seezer | patricio: i guess the bottleneck is still usb. but try to save to a local (sata/ide/scsi) harddrive at the remote target. | 15:57 |
| patricio | there is an ide harddrive there | 15:57 |
| patricio | WIE GEIL! seezer, kmobiletools is friggin awesome :D | 15:59 |
| seezer | patricio: finds auch nich schlecht ;) | 16:00 |
| patricio | :) :) | 16:00 |
| patricio | strange thing though: all my contacts are listed twice *g | 16:00 |
| patricio | ah, sim and mobile | 16:00 |
| seezer | there definately _is_ still some work to do.. | 16:01 |
| patricio | is it possible to change their location over hree? | 16:01 |
| patricio | awesome, all my sms :) :) | 16:01 |
| seezer | sorry have no installation here. only on my laptop. and since i'm not actually chatting but learning for a test tomorrow.. *gna* | 16:02 |
| patricio | seezer: wait | 16:06 |
| patricio | seezer: the most important tool I haven't found yet: agenda options | 16:06 |
| patricio | doesn't kmobiletools have that yet? | 16:07 |
| newbee | hello | 16:08 |
| neville | hello | 16:08 |
| newbee | hs anyone been able to install ubuntu on a power pc | 16:08 |
| newbee | we are looking to change from mac os x 10.2 | 16:09 |
| seezer | patricio: hmm. i thought so.. | 16:09 |
| newbee | I understand the ubuntu will install but the wireless will not work | 16:09 |
| patricio | seezer: hm, I can't find that | 16:09 |
| neville | Well, the wireless not working isn't usually a given | 16:10 |
| seezer | patricio: hm. perhaps someone in #kmobiletools could tell you more? | 16:10 |
| neville | Sometimes it works without a hitch from the word go, other times it needs a bit of a push | 16:10 |
| patricio | good idea! thx | 16:10 |
| BluesKaj | newbee, http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.org/kubuntu/ports/releases/7.10/release/ | 16:10 |
| seezer | patricio: would you mind notifying me about the result? ;9 | 16:11 |
| seezer | s,9,\), | 16:11 |
| oliver3 | Once KDE4 is released, will there be some kind of migration for 7.10 or will I have to wait for Hardy? | 16:11 |

| neville | sorry for noobing this place up | 16:12 |
| newbee | Blue, doe the airport work with that install | 16:12 |

| patricio | seezer: of course not, how can I contact you? | 16:13 |

| andresj | hello everybody, how can I print something from KPDF, but shifted to the right a little (or all the way)? The PDF has a page size smaller than US Letter (which are the pages I am printing on). | 16:18 |
| Harahu | I am having trouble running the Iso on my other computer, it says that the disk is corrupter or not a file type supported by windows. | 16:20 |
| Harahu | (Please Andres first) | 16:20 |
| jhutchins | Harahu: You don't run iso's. | 16:21 |
| Harahu | It is burned on a disk. | 16:21 |
| BluesKaj | you burn the iso to a cd , then you have to boot into it | 16:21 |
| jhutchins | If the md5sum of both the iso and the cd are good, then you boot to the iso. | 16:21 |
| jhutchins | Harahu: boot to the disk that is. If you load the disk in windows you may see readable files, but nothing executable. | 16:22 |
| andy_123 | hi all | 16:22 |
| andy_123 | have a problem with kaffeine and opengl | 16:22 |
| jhutchins | Harahu: If windows can't see files on the CD, you may have a bad burn or a bad iso. | 16:22 |
| lg188 | hello | 16:23 |
| andy_123 | keffeine tells me that it cannot use opengl driver. i'm using ati 8.42 driver and opengl is working | 16:23 |
| Harahu | him the burn could be bad. | 16:23 |
| Harahu | *hmm | 16:23 |
| andy_123 | is anyone using kaffeine with ati's 8.42 driver? | 16:23 |
| newbee | has anyone gotten the mac airport wireless card working on an install of Ubuntu | 16:25 |
| Harahu | I might have burned it twice :s | 16:25 |
| Harahu | Can it be burned to DVD? | 16:25 |
| Harahu | (I have more DVDs then CDs) | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | no cdrw's | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 16:26 |
| andy_123 | kaffeine and xv driver with ati 8.42 driver kills the xserver | 16:27 |
| andy_123 | nay resoltuion? | 16:27 |
| BluesKaj | Harahu, which burning app do you have ? | 16:27 |
| MarcoPau | how do I disable automounting? | 16:28 |
| BluesKaj | andy_123, are you on gutsy ? | 16:28 |
| Harahu | This is my parent computer so I have to look around. | 16:28 |
| * Harahu goes to check | 16:28 | |
| andy_123 | BluesKaj: yes i'm using gutsy | 16:29 |
| andy_123 | unfortunatly if using xv output x crsehs | 16:29 |
| BluesKaj | andy_123, the 8.42 driver works ok on feisty , not very well on gutsy depending on how xorg is setup | 16:30 |
| terra | test | 16:30 |
| andy_123 | i just need it to use opengl | 16:30 |
| Harahu | The CD-RW won't let me delete the old iso. | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | andy_123, the restricted driver in system settings advanced works not half bad on lower end ATI onboard cards like mine | 16:31 |
| vit___ | gracias internet | 16:31 |
| tekteen | Anyone know how to change the kdm theme? | 16:32 |
| andy_123 | well i need the latest one...have a 2600 chip | 16:32 |
| mordaunt | is this the right channel to try and get help with kubuntu gutsy and compiz ? | 16:33 |
| terra | achtung | 16:33 |
| tekteen | yep | 16:33 |
| tekteen | mordaunt: ask | 16:33 |
| mordaunt | yay great =) | 16:33 |
| mordaunt | i did compiz --replace and ever since compiz automatically starts on my system | 16:34 |
| tekteen | btw I know nothing so someone else will have to answer it. Sorry | 16:34 |
| rothchild | evenin all, i'm making a real meal of sharing files using samba between gnome ubuntu on my laptop and kubuntu on my desktop, it's just not working (user error for sure!!) can anyone talk me through it? | 16:34 |
| mordaunt | however, it does after the normal stuff loads... so there's a big flicker as it switches from normal window manager to compiz | 16:34 |
| BluesKaj | andy_123, enable the restricted driver and your opengl will be enabled as well | 16:34 |
| tekteen | you need to make it the default window manager, mordaunt | 16:35 |
| mordaunt | tekteen yea.. but how do i do that ? =) | 16:35 |
| terra | neuer Test | 16:35 |
| andy_123 | BluesKaj, but then it wants to laod an older version of the driver, i need the latest one, will it enable opengl for kaffeine this way? | 16:35 |
| tekteen | I will look for u. if anyone else knows answer | 16:36 |
| andy_123 | i mean i have opengl running | 16:36 |
| mordaunt | tekteen thanks =) | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | andy_123, yes , kaffeine should work | 16:36 |
| terra | test | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | andy_123, you could try the latest ATI proprietary driver 8.43...it might work | 16:37 |
| Harahu | To answer the brning program question: it has Windows Media Player burner, Power2Go, DVD Solution, Windows Explorer. | 16:37 |
| tekteen | mordaunt: I will google it (it will take time) | 16:37 |
| andy_123 | BluesKaj, well, i have it installed already | 16:37 |
| andy_123 | btw, where to get 8.43? | 16:38 |
| mordaunt | tekteen that's ok.. i've been googling it and have only kept landing on instructions for gnome | 16:38 |
| andy_123 | i only know 8.42 | 16:38 |
| mordaunt | i'll wait =) | 16:38 |
| BluesKaj | on the ATI site , andy_123 | 16:38 |
| rothchild | mordaunt once i'd done compiz --replace kde auto loads compiz on reboot now, didn't change any settings | 16:38 |
| terra | test | 16:39 |
| rothchild | does anyone even just have a nice simple, working smb.conf I can get a look at? | 16:40 |
| Harahu | Which should I pick to burn? | 16:40 |
| Harahu | (G-d I hate alll this.) | 16:40 |
| terra | g | 16:40 |
| begert | anyone here running 64-bit Kubuntu? | 16:40 |
| mordaunt | rothchild: i get a flicker.. basically i see kde load the default window manager.. and then it replaces it | 16:41 |
| tekteen | mordaunt: I think this site has the answer "http://developer.kde.org/~seli/kdewm/" | 16:42 |
| BluesKaj | rothchild, try using smb in konq ..in the addressbar type smb:/ | 16:42 |
| mordaunt | tekteen: thanks taking a look | 16:42 |
| tekteen | np | 16:42 |
| BluesKaj | begert, what's the prob ? | 16:42 |
| rothchild | mordaunt same here I just put up with it atm but if you find a more elegant solution please share it | 16:43 |
| begert | Bug #163457 | 16:43 |
| mordaunt | tekteen i'm going to test it out | 16:43 |
| tekteen | ok | 16:43 |
| rothchild | blueskaj yeah i've been up and down that | 16:43 |
| begert | curious if anone else can reproduce this | 16:43 |
| mordaunt | it looks promising =D | 16:43 |

| tekteen | anyone know how to change the kdm theme? I am not a graphics person | 16:44 |
| rothchild | i don't see any shares in smb:/ | 16:44 |
| Harahu | I am going to try itv agian, so how do I run it? | 16:45 |
| Harahu | (Just to make sure) | 16:45 |
| rothchild | rothchild@deathstar-desktop:~$ smbclient -L deathstar-laptop | 16:47 |
| rothchild | Connection to deathstar-laptop failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME) | 16:47 |
| rothchild | and if I do it from the laptop looking for the desktop it asks me for a password (which I believe I have set) I get NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | rothchild, i used smb4k successfully , it was a bit ambiguous to set up but it does work | 16:49 |
| Harahu | How do I know when it is done burning? | 16:52 |
| mordaunt | ok it sort of works now tekteen | 16:55 |
| tekteen | sort of? | 16:56 |
| mordaunt | it seems that the old compiz --replace has written itself somewhere to load after kde starts... so it replaces the already running compiz.. again =) | 16:56 |
| mordaunt | i'm using find to look for which files it's in purge it and then try again | 16:56 |
| tekteen | is it in ~/.kde/Autostart | 16:57 |
| mordaunt | nope | 16:57 |

| mordaunt | that's one.. not sure if that's just in there during runtime.. | 16:57 |
| tekteen | mordaunt: do u know how to change the kdm theme? | 16:58 |
| tekteen | I know nothing about graphics. lol | 16:59 |
| mordaunt | it should be in the control center i think.. i haven't messed with themes | 16:59 |
| tekteen | I looked. It was not there. | 16:59 |
| tekteen | thanks anyway | 16:59 |
| mordaunt | tekteen as far as i know kde does it in pieces | 17:00 |
| tekteen | ? | 17:00 |

| tekteen | I am looking for selecting a install theme | 17:02 |
| mordaunt | so when you get 'themes' from kde-look | 17:02 |
| mordaunt | you have to find one that has settings for all three components | 17:02 |
| tekteen | It is preinstalled on kubuntu | 17:02 |
| tekteen | kubuntu-no-userlist | 17:02 |
| mordaunt | yea so you'll have to change all three to use the theme with the same name | 17:02 |
| mordaunt | otherwise it'll look a little weird | 17:03 |
| tekteen | ok | 17:03 |

| Minifig | I am a bad typist. | 17:22 |
| Minifig | I will try it. | 17:22 |
| [ka]killer | Minifig, well if your using gnome its less power hungry then windows, KDE is a bit more power hungry but still more effecient at managing your computers resources then windows will ever be | 17:22 |
| Minifig | I am running Kubuntu Linux 7.10 as far as I know. | 17:23 |
| [ka]killer | yah, kde is a bit more resource hungry then gnome, but its easier to adjust ot for recent windows converts | 17:23 |
| Minifig | I think I need to reboot. Says there is another program using Package. | 17:23 |
| [ka]killer | no | 17:23 |
| nonname | different resolutions? | 17:23 |
| [ka]killer | and you never really need to reboot linux | 17:23 |
| [ka]killer | just restart X | 17:23 |
| [ka]killer | ctrl+alt+backspace | 17:23 |
| [ka]killer | but thats not a restart isue | 17:24 |
| Minifig | Do that now then? | 17:24 |
| Minifig | ctrl-alt-bs? | 17:24 |
| [ka]killer | dam it whats the line, dpkg something | 17:24 |

| [ka]killer | try running apt-get update | 17:24 |
| nonname | kill it? lol | 17:24 |
| [ka]killer | it should tell you | 17:24 |
| [ka]killer | its a dpkg line and theres a -a in there... i just forget the rest of the line... havent had to use it in a while | 17:25 |
| [ka]killer | so Minifig did that help? | 17:26 |
| [ka]killer | if not try running apt-get | 17:26 |

| pipegeek | So, I just installed kdebase-workspace on gutsy. However, startkde is still not in my path..... am I just supposed to run /usr/lib/kde4/bin/startkde, or is something I need not installed? | 18:36 |
| ardchoille | pipegeek: Did you install kubuntu-desktop? That will get you the kubuntu kde desktop environment and it should set everything up for you | 18:37 |
| pipegeek | pipegeek: I don't want kde 3, though. I want kde 4. | 18:37 |
| nick_ | I thought the max file size for fat32 was 32 GB? | 18:37 |
| pipegeek | (beta 2) | 18:37 |
| pipegeek | I'm following the instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta2.php , mostly, but modified, since they're written for feisty (wonder why they haven't been updated...) | 18:38 |

| tekteen | ardchoille: I have a fat with 67GB | 18:43 |
| BluesKaj | pipegeek, have you been able to make it work ? | 18:43 |

| tekteen | lol | 18:44 |
| ardchoille | lol | 18:44 |
| BluesKaj | ok pipegeek , it's just that i tried the instructions on the KDE4 page , but I couldn't get it to run ...I might have screwed something up , cuz the instructions are a bit hard for me to understand , not being a linux expert etc | 18:46 |
| niespoo | hello. ;-) | 18:46 |
| niespoo | Im new in kubuntu :) | 18:46 |
| tekteen | hi | 18:46 |
| ardchoille | BluesKaj: Surely you jest | 18:46 |
| ardchoille | hi niespoo | 18:46 |
| BluesKaj | no ardchoille , surely i don't jest :) | 18:47 |
| pipegeek | BluesKaj: :^) Sorry, I was just confused | 18:47 |
| tekteen | nirspoo: do u have a question? | 18:47 |
| pipegeek | BluesKaj: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-beta3.php | 18:47 |
| niespoo | i have seen small device icon in tray saying about ati drivers i should install to get better. I click on it, it ask me for password, i type in wrong password and that window disappear. How can i do this again? | 18:47 |
| pipegeek | BluesKaj: Was following the wrong instructions (google wasn't smart enough to find the right ones). This worked for me. | 18:48 |
| tekteen | go to "system settings" in the k menu | 18:48 |
| pipegeek | BluesKaj: well... sort of. | 18:48 |
| tekteen | niespoo: then go to the advanced tab | 18:48 |
| === cloud__ is now known as ChaosMachine | ||
| tekteen | niespoo: Then click on the "restricted drivers" button | 18:49 |
| tekteen | niespoo: hope that helps! | 18:49 |
| BluesKaj | pipegeek, this is the instruction that wouldn't work for me: To run it as a full session copy /usr/lib/kde4/share/apps/kdm/sessions/kde.desktop to /usr/share/xsessions/kde4.desktop, edit the Name entry in kde4.desktop to be called "KDE 4", put the four export lines at the top of /usr/lib/kde4/bin/startkde and start a new session in KDM with KDE 4. | 18:50 |
| niespoo | it does but wneh im enabling that im getting error: the softwa re source for the package xorg-drive-fglrx is not enabled | 18:51 |
| niespoo | what now? ;/ | 18:51 |
| tekteen | no idea | 18:52 |
| tekteen | sorry | 18:52 |
| pipegeek | BluesKaj: I'll test that shortly.... but to do that I'd need to restart gdm, so for now I'll just put the appropriate lines in my .xsession and start my second session using that. | 18:52 |
| BluesKaj | right pipegeek , I'll be waiting for your result...but i won't be holding my breath :) | 18:53 |

| tekteen | corey: some of my other friends do to | 19:00 |
| pipegeek | My display is at a different resolution than the one I was using in Xephyr earlier, and kde4 hasn't realized it, and is still drawing the desktop at 1280x1024 | 19:01 |
| niespoo | tekteen: what should i do now? | 19:01 |
| pipegeek | also, there's no k menu, and the system tray is half broken.... I'd thought kde4 beat 3 was at least slightly usable :-\ | 19:01 |
| pipegeek | oh well | 19:01 |
| coreymon77 | pipegeek: well then set it to use a different one | 19:01 |
| tekteen | niespoo: what is the problem | 19:01 |
| niespoo | E: Couldn't find package mplayer | 19:01 |
| jawee_ | This is probably a stupid question... I set up KDE4 on Fiesty and I have now upgraded. I wanted to use that KDE4 install again, but I cannot for the life of me remember what the directory is for KDE4 apps | 19:01 |
| niespoo | tekteen: ^^ | 19:01 |
| tekteen | ok | 19:01 |
| pipegeek | coreymon77: you misunderstand me. the screen resolution is 1600x1200---1280x1024 of which contains a background picture and taskbar, the rest of which is light grey. I can still drag windows over it. | 19:02 |
| ScorpKing | rothchild: you still here? | 19:02 |
| coreymon77 | pipegeek: besides, it is still a beta, id wait till rc atleast | 19:02 |
| tekteen | try this "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install mplayer" in the konsole | 19:02 |
| pipegeek | coreymon77: I guess I should have expected this.... I just know some people are using it on their desktop already, which makes me wonder what I'm doing wrong | 19:02 |
| coreymon77 | pipegeek: youre not doing anything wrong, its just still beta, thats all | 19:03 |
| niespoo | tekteen: looks like i have no repote repositories configured, only cdrom | 19:03 |
| tekteen | ok | 19:03 |
| tekteen | if u want u can copy mine. | 19:03 |
| coreymon77 | niespoo: or you can use source-o-matic | 19:03 |
| coreymon77 | !source-o-matic } niespoo | 19:04 |
| tekteen | or u can uncomment everything | 19:04 |
| pipegeek | coreymon77: I need to find someone who's using it as their desktop environment, and ask 'em how they did it. Because this is actually unusable, and I feel like that means misconfiguration | 19:04 |
| pipegeek | ah well | 19:04 |

| draik | boguh: Thank you. What happened to the GUI? | 19:10 |
| boguh | draik which gui? | 19:10 |
| rothchild | oh ok, I think i did that, how do I check? I used sudo smbpasswd -L -e rothchild for the user names on both machines and set them the same password | 19:11 |
| draik | boguh: The one that was in Feisty | 19:11 |
| rothchild | looking through the buffer I did that with -e and -a for both usernames | 19:12 |
| BluesKaj | draik, open konqueror , type 'locate:filename' in the addressbar | 19:12 |
| boguh | draik I think there is a desktop search called strigi or so | 19:12 |
| BluesKaj | <---can't seem to get strigi to work , so i just avoid it | 19:13 |
| draik | boguh: Yeah, I don't care for strigi. No way of doing a search | 19:13 |
| draik | BluesKaj: I think it's a gamma app | 19:13 |

| ubotu | In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 19:42 |

| kerry | BluesKaj: mostly i tink only 30% users gone to gutsy | 19:48 |
| fdoving | nerv203: re-installing is the safest. you -can- downgrade, but it is not supported and you need to know dpkg/apt very well. it's one of those 'if you're asking,you probably don't want to do it'-things. | 19:48 |

| BluesKaj | niespoo , 'alsamixer' in the konsole or open kmix by clicking on the speaker icon | 19:50 |
| jhutchins | azlon: gksudo is for gnome, kdesudo or kdesu for kubuntu. kdesudo konqueror will launch the browser. | 19:50 |
| fdoving | nerv203: yeah, dolphin isn't the best, right-click on a folder -> properties -> find the wrench on the right and click it -> move konqueror to the top of the list. | 19:51 |
| jhutchins | azlon: You can also use the console and do sudo cp /source/files /target/folder | 19:51 |
| jhutchins | niespoo: I think that's determined by the driver, which is determined by the sound hardware. | 19:52 |
| jhutchins | niespoo: You'd probably have to change the code in the driver. | 19:52 |
| jhutchins | niespoo: Or possibly use different hardware. | 19:52 |
| niespoo | jhutchins: no chances to just set other value? now is 13% what is big difference ;/ | 19:53 |
| nerv203 | Thanks. | 19:53 |
| jhutchins | niespoo: You're talking about the smallest change in volume you can make, right? | 19:53 |

| jhutchins | Ah. | 19:54 |
| nerv203 | fdoving: Problem, I can't actually access any folders to right click on. | 19:54 |
| jhutchins | You'd have to look at the keyboard map file and see what command it's actually executing, possibly change that. | 19:54 |

| compilerwriter | Greetings folks I have two issues: HP printer on my kubuntu box and sharing it with XP. I also have a problem with getting vmware up and running. Anyone feel like helping me with either or both? | 20:17 |
| BluDog_Anchorite | found it. thanks | 20:17 |
| compilerwriter | The issue with the printer sharing is perplexing me. I followed the tutorial examples on the web and it seemed that when I went to install the printer on the laptop that it found the printer ok on my machine. I, however, get no output from the printer. Am I not holding my mouth properly? | 20:19 |
| BluDog_Anchorite | ardchoille: would you by chance know if fluxbox supports edge flipping (roll mouse to next work space) | 20:19 |
| ardchoille | BluDog_Anchorite: I haven't used fb is so long I can't remember. | 20:20 |
| BluDog_Anchorite | gotcha. im working on a dapper laptop with very limited resources. going for a small, fast, functional machine | 20:21 |
| compilerwriter | BluDog_Anchorite I think the whole idea about fluxbox is that you really didn't need much more than one workspace so I believe the answer is no. But like ardchoille I have not used it in quite some time. | 20:21 |
| BluDog_Anchorite | it has 4 workspaces by default. just like the others | 20:21 |
| fernando_ | I have the the g++-4.2 installed, but for bach files, the system doesn't recognize it.. how can I set the right variable for that? | 20:22 |
| fernando_ | CXX=g++-4.2, but how..? | 20:22 |
| fernando_ | any idea | 20:22 |
| compilerwriter | True BluDog-Anchorite, but I think the flipping feature would have added size and complexity. Therefore it would be against the grain of fluxbox in general. | 20:22 |
| Dr_willis | BluDog_Anchorite, i dont recall it having that feature either. But i would check the fluxbox docs to be sure. It may just be disabled by default | 20:22 |

| Minataku | I got the Amiga working. It had a bad CPU. It may also have bad sound. | 20:23 |
| boguh | fernando_ update-alternatives? | 20:23 |
| Dr_willis | Minataku, thats odd. Of course a 68000 cpu ran about $12 20 years ago. :) | 20:23 |
| fdoving | fernando_: export CXX=g++-4.2 ? | 20:24 |
| raul | hola | 20:24 |
| Minataku | I dropped the other one in and it started working | 20:24 |
| Minataku | lol | 20:24 |
| Dr_willis | then again the things have been sitting for about 10+ years. | 20:24 |
| raul | tengo un problema al instalar nwn | 20:24 |
| Minataku | The sound is the next point of interest | 20:24 |
| Dr_willis | Minataku, iw as going to suggest that yesterday the 'drop it a few in to reseat the cpu fix' | 20:24 |
| Minataku | Heh | 20:24 |
| Schuenemann | is there a tutorial on how to install mysql and query browser on kubuntu? | 20:24 |
| Minataku | Well, it's working now, except for sound (maybe) | 20:24 |
| Dr_willis | That was a issue YEARS ago - aparently a speed bump at the C= home caused a lot of cpus to unseat. | 20:25 |
| Minataku | I also lack a mouse and pretty much any software | 20:25 |
| compilerwriter | The problem I am having with vmware is that I need someone to help me get it up and running. I tried an install and botched it. I tried vmware after I had no luck getting virtualbox to work in seamless windows. God, but I wish there were a really good open source answer to Quickbooks and Quicken that had all the same functionality as they do. | 20:25 |
| Minataku | Like Workbench | 20:25 |
| Minataku | lol | 20:25 |
| Schuenemann | I installed both through apt-get | 20:25 |
| Dr_willis | You do have the sound out going into a stero ir somthing? | 20:25 |
| ubuntu | can some one help me? | 20:25 |
| niespoo | Hmm, how to enable xv video output in mplayer? | 20:25 |
| Dr_willis | Minataku, :) actually I think some of the game disks had almost full workbenches on them. | 20:25 |
| Minataku | I tried to feed it directly into my TV | 20:26 |
| compilerwriter | !ask ubuntu | 20:26 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ask ubuntu - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 20:26 |
| enzo_ | What is the alternative to KRecordMyDesktop? | 20:26 |
| Minataku | The video works to my TV in glorious monochrome | 20:26 |
| compilerwriter | !ask | ubuntu | 20:26 |
| ubotu | ubuntu: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 20:26 |
| enzo_ | I want something that will record what I am doing. | 20:26 |
| Minataku | The sound seems to be a different issue | 20:26 |
| Dr_willis | Minataku, heh. i got some amiga monitors.. some still work. | 20:26 |
| Minataku | Direct to the TV, the sound didn't seem to work | 20:26 |
| enzo_ | I try to do differnet things and the app won't record it. Only what my mouse does (where it goes on the screen) | 20:26 |
| Minataku | Got an RF Adapter? | 20:26 |
| Dr_willis | I always had this sony brand radio tghat had aux in, that i always used. | 20:26 |
| fernando_ | export CXX=g++-4.2 didn't work, the same with update-alternatives | 20:27 |
| ubuntu | can some one help me install Ubuntu on my Desktop here? | 20:27 |
| Dr_willis | Amiga to TV via RF. Hmm.. it had a composite out. or at least some of them did. | 20:27 |
| Minataku | It does, but it's monochrome only | 20:27 |
| Dr_willis | Thats.. weird. should be color. | 20:27 |
| Minataku | Nope | 20:27 |
| compilerwriter | ubuntu what sort of problems are you having with the installation? | 20:27 |
| Minataku | At least not on the A500 it's not | 20:27 |
| Minataku | It explicitly says "MONO" over the plug | 20:27 |
| Minataku | lol | 20:27 |
| ubuntu | i want to keep my Windows OS | 20:28 |
| Dr_willis | Minataku, you sure thats not for the Stero? | 20:28 |
| Minataku | Considering it DOES output a video signal, I'm 100% sure | 20:28 |
| Dr_willis | I dont rember the amiga ever having a mono out.. the C128 did. heh. | 20:28 |
| Minataku | Video and audio signals are quite different | 20:28 |
| Dr_willis | But there were a lot of vairations on the A500's when they came out and later | 20:28 |
| compilerwriter | ubuntu there are several ways to do that. How are you planning to seperate the two operating systems. | 20:28 |
| ubuntu | all i wish is to have both! | 20:29 |
| fdoving | fernando_: you need to export CXX=.. before running the script that depends on that version of gcc. you also need to make sure that variable is not overriden inside thescript,for example in Makefiles. | 20:29 |

| niespoo | Hmm, how to enable xv video output in mplayer? Im using ati drivers... | 20:32 |
| biovore | niespoo: you probably can't, because most of the ATI cards don't support xvideo overlay.. | 20:32 |
| Dr_willis | I recall having to select some other video out on mplayer for my laptop | 20:33 |
| compilerwriter | Anyone here able to help me with my printer sharing or vmware issues? | 20:33 |
| biovore | probably can output in openGL and get some better performance then software render | 20:33 |

| sn00zer | yes it worked perfectly, thanks guys | 20:42 |
| biovore | I replaced it with a nvidia card.. works better.. | 20:42 |
| niespoo | i cant replace a card ;/ | 20:42 |
| biovore | yup.. then your just screwed then.. :-( | 20:42 |

| biovore | you got xvideo working on that Willis.. | 20:44 |
| Dr_willis | I watch videos. :) | 20:45 |
| niespoo | hmmm. full screen quality is very bad ;/ | 20:45 |
| Dr_willis | actually i tend to just use geexbox on it to watch videos more then anything else. | 20:45 |
| niespoo | what can I do? please help me | 20:46 |
| Dr_willis | I have a grub entry that boots a geexbox 'mini install' on the front of the HD. :) a fast booting -videowathing machine. | 20:46 |
| Psycoshot | Hey guys. | 20:49 |
| Psycoshot | Can someone help me. I have an extra HD and I want to formot in. | 20:49 |
| Psycoshot | How do I do that? | 20:49 |
| nareshov | psychoholic, qtparted ? | 20:49 |

| Psycoshot | Ok. | 20:50 |
| nareshov | bah, do I need sleep >_> | 20:50 |
| niespoo | So, i cant do anything to get better video quality? | 20:50 |
| Psycoshot | :P | 20:50 |
| nareshov | niespoo, did you try gl2 ? | 20:51 |
| Dr_willis | fdisk the drive to partition it, then you format the partitions, then you mount the formated partitions :) | 20:51 |
| niespoo | nareshov: no i havent. i tried it right now and seems to work better | 20:52 |
| Dr_willis | qtparted or gparted is handy for the fdisk/formating part. :) | 20:52 |
| Psycoshot | Thanks Dr_willis | 20:55 |
| Dr_willis | or course theres other things you may want to do. depending on wht you plan on doing with the new HD. | 20:56 |

| biovore | Psycoshot: well if its formated fat32.. there is a ntfs partion type.. | 20:57 |
| biovore | fernando_: export CXX=g++-4.2 | 20:58 |
| Psycoshot | I chose format drive then it asks for partition type | 20:58 |
| biovore | Psycoshot: format..you partion? | 20:58 |
| Psycoshot | ext3, ext2 FAT 32 | 20:58 |
| fernando_ | biovore: doesn't work.. | 20:58 |
| Psycoshot | yeah | 20:58 |
| biovore | fernando_: you can always force it in the makefile probably. | 20:58 |
| Psycoshot | format partition | 20:58 |
| Psycoshot | my bad | 20:58 |
| biovore | or just symlink /usr/bin/g++ to your other compiler | 20:59 |
| andreas_ | When i try to watch divx movies in firefox it just freeses. Why? Have installed mplayer | 20:59 |
| fernando_ | no..but I need it as variable, because is a problem for developing.. | 20:59 |
| biovore | well depends on what the make file is doing.. | 20:59 |
| biovore | you can specify CXX= to something in the makefile.. | 21:00 |
| biovore | normaly they can pull the vars from the shell envrioment. | 21:00 |
| biovore | CXX might be CPP though.. | 21:00 |
| Dr_willis | Psycoshot, if you are installing xp to the drive. you may want to let XP format it | 21:00 |
| Psycoshot | Heh alright | 21:01 |
| Psycoshot | Thanks. | 21:01 |
| fernando_ | biovore: the make file is made it automatically many times, I need it as a variable | 21:01 |
| fernando_ | biovore: export did work on previous version of kubuntu, but now doesn't work.. | 21:01 |
| biovore | fernando_: probably need to specify in the configure thing | 21:01 |
| biovore | or in automake | 21:02 |

| Alarm | hello, is there a way to get over or a workaround to the bug with the hal-storage-removable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000 ? | 21:25 |
| Alarm | when i turn on my external usb hdd and try to enter the directory i get the above error. checked online and saw that it is a bug, is there somehow i could mount my drive every time i turn it on ? | 21:25 |
| Dr_willis | Alarm, you could just manually mount it. or make an icon/use some mounting tool with a fstab entry | 21:26 |
| Dr_willis | Ive not experienced the bug. ive seen a lot of people in here asking about it however. | 21:26 |
| Alarm | well, i want my drive to be mounted automaticaly or to be mounted when i try to enter it, but not to mount it always from command line | 21:27 |
| Dr_willis | make an icon that runs the proper mount command, or use some of the other mounting tools.. No need t use the command line. But im old skool. :) | 21:27 |
| Dr_willis | I rember the days when there was NO automounting of anything. | 21:28 |
| Alarm | hehe | 21:28 |
| Alarm | isnt there something to be done so that it will be mounted right after i plug it in ? | 21:29 |
| Dr_willis | Thats what HAL and the automounting subsystem handles.. and as you said thers some bug. | 21:29 |
| Alarm | ok something else then | 21:30 |
| Dr_willis | a fstab entry will override the auto-mounting i belive. But ya can always set it where a user can mount the device. and it may just appear on the desktop as 'unmounted' and you rightlcick/mount it. | 21:30 |
| Alarm | kind of different problem. it has to do with a usb flash | 21:31 |
| myk_ | any of you guys tried doing any recording on a laptop with intel hda? | 21:31 |
| Alarm | when pluging it in i get the error: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage, or other error . the funny thing is that the same flash mounted without any problem on another kubuntu system | 21:32 |
| Dr_willis | thats just mounts generic 'error message' | 21:34 |
| Dr_willis | You can mount it manually? | 21:34 |
| Alarm | if i do a pmount it works | 21:34 |
| TQuid | 'allo folks. | 21:34 |
| Alarm | but again i got to do it within a console | 21:34 |
| Dr_willis | make an icon that runs the mount command then. | 21:35 |
| Dr_willis | I cant say tht ive ever used pmount in 10+ years. heh. :) | 21:35 |
| Dr_willis | afuse - automounting file system implemented in user-space using FUSE | 21:35 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. wonder how that works. | 21:35 |
| TQuid | I'm running Gutsy, and last night got my bluetooth headset going. But I'm having the same problem with it as I do with my minijack headset--the mic is very quiet. I see this problem noted in several places, but no solution. Anyone know anything about it? | 21:35 |
| Alarm | so again and icon :) | 21:36 |
| Alarm | dude , if i do that for every drive i got i will need 4 desktops just with icons hehe | 21:36 |
| Dr_willis | You just said it was a problem with the usb drive. not all of them | 21:36 |
| Alarm | i am just kidding, yes it had to do with the hdd | 21:37 |
| Alarm | but cant understand how the flash can mount without any problem on other kubuntu | 21:37 |

| tekteen | Anyone know of a way to automatically have samba create a share folder for each user. An example is how the home directory is created. However I do not want the folder to point to the home dir but instead a relative path. | 21:56 |
| mohi | Dr_willis: yes! I've tried these things, I want to know if there is anything like "Free the fish" in gnome ! | 21:56 |
| Dr_willis | time to hit the google i guess. :) | 21:56 |
| tekteen | also, Dr_willis, I figured out how to do my previous question | 21:57 |
| thylio | I'm having problems watching divx videos i on internet. I have installed mplayer. when i press play, the screen (where the film shuld be) is black and in the upper left corner is sais "mplayer". after that firefox shuts down. Got the same problem in konqueror to, exept that it doesent shut down. Can anyone help me? | 21:57 |
| mohi | in gnome, when you hit alt+f2 and type that phrase, there would be a fish crossing your desktop! | 21:57 |

| Dr_willis | tekteen, the samba docs helped? :) | 22:01 |

| thylio | Is it relevant? | 22:01 |
| Dr_willis | thylio, i dont think so. | 22:02 |
| thylio | Okay. Damn | 22:02 |
| Dr_willis | what site you watching divx video in anyway? | 22:02 |
| thylio | stage6.divx.com ;D | 22:03 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about fortune - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:03 |
| draik | :( | 22:03 |
| Dr_willis | thylio, i can watch stage6 stuff - I normally download the videos however. | 22:04 |
| thylio | Hmm... Let work backwords. What is different in your software than in mine? | 22:04 |
| Dr_willis | No idea.. You tell me. :) | 22:04 |
| Dr_willis | Using firefox, and ive installed the kubuntu-restricted-extras package | 22:05 |
| thylio | I guess u have mplayer, kmplayer, | 22:05 |
| Dr_willis | I got about eveyrthing there is :) | 22:05 |
| thylio | hehe:p Okay, That doesnt help me mutch^^, | 22:05 |
| Dr_willis | kubuntu-restricted-extras - would be the first thing to grab. | 22:06 |
| thylio | think that was the first thing i did. | 22:06 |
| Alberio | in friefox, does anybody else's "open" button in the downloads window not work? | 22:06 |
| Alberio | I just updated to Gutsy yesterday, and installed firefox from the repos, but the open button doesn't do anything | 22:07 |
| thylio | what is the command of the super editor? | 22:08 |
| Dr_willis | Everything I got installed on this box --------> http://pastebin.com/m507f7933 | 22:08 |
| Dr_willis | super editor? | 22:08 |
| thylio | Dunno, just so i can edit a .conf file ^^, | 22:08 |
| Alberio | or does anybody know how to fix this problem? | 22:08 |
| Dr_willis | Alberio, you mean the 'open/remove' links? Open works here . for my videos at least. | 22:08 |
| Alberio | yes, those | 22:09 |
| Alberio | and @thylio, just do sudo <text editor> <file> | 22:09 |
| Alberio | like say, sudo pico xorg.conf | 22:09 |
| thylio | need the command for the text editor:p | 22:09 |
| Alberio | or sudo kate xorg.conf | 22:09 |
| thylio | pico then? | 22:09 |
| thylio | okay, thx | 22:09 |
| Alberio | it doesn't matter what text editor you use | 22:09 |
| Dr_willis | use whatever editor you like. | 22:09 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 22:09 |
| Alberio | just need to do it with su priveledges | 22:09 |
| * tekteen uses "nano -w" | 22:09 | |
| * Alberio is a kate fan | 22:10 | |
| * ubunturos points, nano is linked to pico. So, there's no pico | 22:10 | |
| Dr_willis | I am able to watch http://stage6.divx.com/user/xchristox/video/1778519/New-Species-Discovered-That-Look-Like-Aliens! inside the browser window. | 22:10 |
| * tekteen uses "sudo nano -w FILE" or "kdesudo kwrite FILE" | 22:10 | |
| Alberio | the open link doesn't work in swiftfox or swiftweaasel either | 22:12 |

| Dr_willis | several ways to get the uuid :) | 22:36 |
| Dr_willis | you can even change the uuid if you want | 22:36 |
| Alberio | great | 22:36 |
| Alberio | ubotu is very useful | 22:36 |

| Alberio | lovre: sudo <some text editior> /etc/fstab | 22:39 |
| lovre | Alberio: done | 22:39 |
| Alberio | lovre: notice the format that's in there | 22:40 |
| thylio | How do i fint out what audio-output to use? | 22:40 |
| lovre | Alberio: i see | 22:40 |
| Alberio | lovre: I would just follow that format | 22:40 |
| Alberio | so I would add the line | 22:40 |
| lovre | Alberio: well, its not very consistent... | 22:40 |
| Alberio | lovre: well the first few lines | 22:40 |
| ubuntu | hello | 22:41 |
| Alberio | lovre: well I would type in this | 22:41 |
| Dr_willis | Alberio, you dont have to use the uuid. you can use the /dev/whatever name as well | 22:42 |
| Alberio | lovre: UUID=<your UUID> /media/test1 vfat defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 1 | 22:42 |
| Alberio | Dr_willis: well don't I feel stupid XD | 22:42 |
| Alberio | alright lovre, looks like you can use /dev/sdb1 instead of UID | 22:43 |
| Alberio | the UUID* | 22:43 |
| lovre | i see | 22:43 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 22:43 |
| lovre | Alberio: so it goes like this: /dev/sdb1 /media/test1 vfat | 22:43 |
| lovre | Alberio: or what? | 22:43 |
| thylio | how do i restart x? | 22:44 |
| Alberio | Dr_willis: would it have also worked to enter "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/test1 -t vfat" ? | 22:44 |
| Alberio | thylio: endx, startx I think would work | 22:44 |
| lovre | thylio: you can CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE | 22:44 |
| Alberio | lovre: yeah, but I would add the rest of the stuff I put in there | 22:44 |
| Alberio | lovre: not exactly sure if it's necessary, but it keeps with format *shrugs* maybe Dr_willis can explain again here | 22:45 |
| lovre | Alberio: ok, now what? restart or it should work now? | 22:45 |
| Alberio | lovre: that line should have it mount to /media/test1 though. so you might want to change teh name | 22:45 |
| lovre | Alberio: i changed | 22:46 |
| Alberio | lovre: ok. well since it's already mounted, you don't need to restart. just do the same thing we did for making /media/test1 | 22:46 |
| Alberio | and mount it there instead | 22:46 |
| Alberio | to the new folder | 22:46 |
| Alberio | when you restart, it should mount that drive to that point | 22:46 |
| lovre | ok | 22:46 |
| lovre | thank you | 22:46 |
| lovre | i hope it works | 22:46 |

| Myrth[home] | Minataku: thanks, maybe you also know why when i click a link in kde apps (kontact, konversation, kopete, etc) it downloads to temporary file and shows it in firefox, instead of transferring the link directly to firefox? | 23:40 |
| jack | haha :( | 23:40 |

| juan_ | whi | 23:45 |
| juan_ | does anyone know where the inittab file is? | 23:45 |
| Minataku | That's the syntax to change the resolution | 23:45 |
| Minataku | juan_: It's in /etc | 23:45 |
| Minataku | Or at least should be | 23:45 |
| juan_ | i can't find it | 23:45 |
| Minataku | It might be in a subdirectory within /etc | 23:45 |
| jack | jack@evilsupercomp-linux:~$ xrandr --fb 1280x1024 | 23:46 |
| jack | I ran that | 23:46 |
| jack | Do I need to use the kde control panel thing now? | 23:46 |
| Minataku | And? | 23:46 |
| === claydoh__ is now known as claydoh | ||
| jack | It didn't change anything on its own | 23:46 |
| Minataku | Is the resolution correct now? | 23:46 |
| jack | no. | 23:46 |
| Minataku | Hm | 23:46 |
| Minataku | Something doesn't want you using 1280x1024 | 23:47 |
| Minataku | lol | 23:47 |
| juan_ | just another question, i have installed on a kubuntu gusty a virtual box running xp, this might be a VERY SILLY qwuestion, but do you think it is necesaary to setup an antivirus within the virtual box? | 23:47 |
| Dr_willis | juan_, depends on what you are doing with it. | 23:48 |
| jack | I'm on 1024x768 and thers a widescreen one after it but nothign else in the kde control | 23:48 |

| * jack is dling firefox | 23:52 | |
| Minataku | Yeah, if that idiotic KDE Network Whatever thing doesn't see the connection, then in a stroke of absolute idiocy, no KDE apps will have network access | 23:53 |
| biovore | I think it has something to do with an interaction with knetwork manager.. I think /etc/resolve gets changed after konquer has started and then it can't resolve dns anymore.. (not sure) | 23:53 |
| soberon | Good Evening... How is possible to configure my google.talk chat account in kopete? Exist a how-to? | 23:54 |
| Minataku | Why the f***ing hell the f***ing DE has to see the f***ing internet connection just for it's own f***ing apps to have f***ing internet is so far beyond my comprehension, it f***ing hurts | 23:54 |
| Minataku | KDE and GNOME need to leave the things that lie in the kernel TO THE F*CKING KERNEL AND NOT TRY TO TAKE OVER TASKS THAT BELONG TO THE OS | 23:55 |
| crimsun | uh what? | 23:55 |

| oscar_ | Hola | 23:56 |

| biovore | well knetwork manager is a suse thing.. so its sorta that way.. | 23:57 |
| biovore | !automatix | 23:57 |
| ubotu | automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe » | 23:57 |
| BluesKaj | well maybe the KDE dev team too ...that kde4 is awful | 23:57 |
