smithwHello everyone. Today I upgraded two different computers from kubuntu feisty to kubuntu gutsy and they both resulted in problems, so I'm quite sad on kubuntu right now. The computer I'm trying to fix now had its wifi stop working after the upgrade. before the upgrade, I did a few hacks to make it work in the first place (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47765/ ). Now, iwpriv complains the "set" command is not recognized and it doesn't connect00:04
smithw correctly. Trying "iwpriv ra0" reveals the interface now supports the "param" command, but when I tried to make the substitutions, it changes errors and say the operation is not permitted. I tried iwconfig and was also unsuccessful. Any ideas on how can I make this network connect?00:04

marx2kHave you guys ever seen Dolphin and Amarok have issues with going out onto the net but your other programs have NO problem?00:19
marx2kLike, Amarok won't play streams and Dolphin says it cant connect to google00:19
limacbut it actually installs00:19
georgebmarx2k: you might have a proxy setup for KDE; go in System Settings -> Network Settings -> Proxy and check if everything is ok00:21
marx2kNope... "Connect to the internet directly"00:22
georgebmarx2k: and in connection preferences (under proxy) ?00:23

NickPrestamarx2k, which streams won't Amarok play?00:26
marx2keven when I select the shoutcast streams in its' default Streaming Media list, it says 'Could not connect to host http://www.shoutcast.com/sbin/newxml.phtml"00:26
marx2kit will not play shoutcast streams00:26
marx2kfurthermore, if I am playing an mp3, and click on the 'artist' tab, it tells me "Artist information could not be retrieved because the server was not reachable."00:27
marx2kso Amarok alone is having net connectivity issues but I am not sure why that would be00:28
NickPrestamarx2k, try to locate the .pls file. Amarok doesn't have the raw XML file, apparently. Use XMMS if you must use that URI. As for the Artist thing, no idea. Works fine on my end00:28
marx2kWhere is default config for amarok stored?00:29
NickPrestamarx2k, ~/.kde/share/config/amarokrc00:30
NickPrestaand I meant Amarok doesn't _like_ the raw XML file, apparently.00:30
marx2kHm...00:30
marx2kI used to be able to just throw it in there00:30
marx2klet me try removing Amarok config and see if that works00:30

rysiek|plguys, since installing gutsy I can't seem to be able to use "vga=795" in grub (which worked great in feisty); the system gets up and works OK, but when I switch back to tty1, I gat a black screen with a *BIG* flashing `_'.01:43
rysiek|plstrange thing, but when I type-in my username and passwor, though I cannot see anything, I get logged in (sudo halt works)01:43

rysiek|plardchoille: yeah, that's just what I said in the first place ;)01:51
ardchoillerysiek|pl: Ah, right01:51
MinatakuI believe the "vga" boot option is dependent on the kernel using the vesafb driver01:51
rysiek|plany news if/when are they going to open-source launchpad?01:52
MinatakuIt may not function if the kernel has autoprobed the card and is using a specific driver01:52
MinatakuI have this exact issue with Piyoko01:52
MinatakuIf the kernel detects the card and tries to use tridentfb, I get completely unusable video01:52
MinatakuI fixed this by compiling in nothing but vesafb, but I believe there's a way to force the driver for prebuilt kernels with multiple modules01:53
rysiek|plMinataku: I *think* there is a way by using kopts01:53
ardchoilleMinataku: Yes, iirc, it was a problem with the video driver and kernel01:53
ardchoilleWell, that was dumb to say01:53
* ardchoille slaps himself01:53
Minatakulol01:53
* rysiek|pl splashes ardchoille with some whater01:54
rysiek|plwake up01:54
rysiek|plthat must have been a pretty hard slap01:54
ardchoilleWell, I had nvidia drivers working in Feisty and vga=791 working in menu.lst, it junst doesn't work in gutsy01:54
MinatakuYeah, I just use vesafb because tridentfb fails on my machine01:55
rysiek|plardchoille: samey-samey here01:55
MinatakuVESA is the first fallback, if the specific driver fails, the VESA driver will usually work, provided the card supports VESA, which pretty much all PC video adapters do01:56
MinatakuVESA is still quite capable, however, in the event that it fails as well, the last fallback is VGA01:57
MinatakuWhich has capabilities reaching just far enough to provide one with video and nothing more01:57
MinatakuIf THAT fails, there's always the serial port... maybe.01:58

Alberiocan someone tell me why this is a bad fstab line?02:44
Alberio /dev/sdb1 /media/My\ Book vfat user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0002:44
flaccidmount does mount /media/My\ Book return??02:45
Alberio line 17 in /etc/fstab is bad02:45
Alberiois what it keeps telling me02:46
flaccidmaybe its the space in the location02:46
AlberioI CAN do mount /dev/sdb1 /media/My\ Book -t vfat02:46
Alberiobut then I don't have write priveledges02:46
flaccidtry /dev/sdb1 /media/My\ Book vfat user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 002:46
flaccidyou left out a param ( well no space)02:46
Alberiohm02:46
AlberioI thought I put a space there02:46
AlberioI'll try that02:47
Alberionope, not working02:47
Alberiostill telling me it's a bad line02:48
flaccidtry it with a dif mountpoint that has no space02:48
TheFishyhey can someone help me ubuntu ops seem to think i have some sort of dcc router exploit...02:48
Alberioflaccid: that works, but it is a little annoying. I also tried using quotes as "/media/My Book", that had worked with apache, but not here02:51
Alberiothanks02:52
flaccidi've never used spaces in fstab or at leats for mountpoints. maybe an expert will know if its possible or not in fstab02:52
flaccid"My Book" <-- its not windows02:53
Alberionope02:53
flaccida hard disk is not a book02:53
Alberioeh?02:53
Alberiooh, it's the label02:53
Alberiothe default name of it02:53

skyi'm new to kubuntu03:18
skyrunning into problems already03:18
skywas wondering if someone could give me some tips.03:19
skyafter installing 7.10, i see that adept manager found some upgradable components, so I went ahead and try to upgrade them03:19
ardchoillesky: We'll need to know what you need heolp with03:19
skyafter it successfully downloads all the selected components, it starts installing them, but there were some errors03:19
skyand then there was a pop up from adept mgr saying that there was an error installing or downloading the updates, the only button to click was "OK"03:20
skyso I wanted to give it another try, because it obviously did not finish installing every update.03:21
skybut then when I go through the same "fetch updates" it found 0 upgradable.03:21
skynow I'm worried that the DB indicates everything is updated when in fact that's not the case.03:21
skybut i'm sure the designers are not so stupid to mark the DB to indicate the upgrade was successful before the actual update.  So I was wondering, how do I find out what the error was and how do I continue to upgrade?03:22
sky(in fact the same happened when i tried to upgrade another machine from 7.0? to 7.1... so I don't know what packages are successfully upgraded and which are not)03:23
mikesssafer from #terminal03:24
ardchoillesky: I would open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade03:24
skyok let me try that03:25

lufthanzaI presume apt caches all packages you download temporarily, so you don't have to redownload them if you reinstall them. My question is, what command completely clears out that cache of downloaded packages, even for the ones that are still installed on the system?05:48
mox69luft: apt-get clean05:49
intelikeylufthanza apt-get clean    or rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*05:49

KevinAlaskaAnyone know if ubuntu can setup an x-window based or GUI type 'dumb terminal' that can do things like email and web based applications?06:09
intelikeyKevinAlaska why gui based if it's a dumb terminal ?06:10
intelikeyand yes it can.   i just don't see a use for such.06:10
KevinAlaskawell I know the traditional use for 'dumb terminal' would be text based,  I just have a need of putting something like that in my kitchen if its possible.06:11
KevinAlaskaintelikey.06:11

KevinAlaskaintelikey - I am just in need of a GUI type of dumb terminal in my kitchen if it is possible... only room for a monitor etc just no place for a case... :(  besides sounds like a fun project to learn if there is a possible way.06:15
loaxxwell of ocurse there is a way, just put the computer in a cabinet06:16
acee1235its pan's labyrinth06:16

loaxxgui type of dumb terminal06:19
loaxx??06:19
loaxxwhats ur definition of terminal?06:19
KevinAlaskayeah... I plan to have a server setup for the home but I could get use out of it hopefully in a way to maybe setup a X window type dumb terminal if possible.06:20
acee1235is there  no basic guide for ubuntu on setting up vlc?06:20
loaxxterminal != console06:20
KevinAlaskawell dumb terminals are usually text based that have min of keyboard and a monitor ... am I correct? :(06:20
loaxxterminal = a place to type commands, like a cli06:21
loaxxconsole = computer to be used06:21
KevinAlaskaoh.. that are hooked up over a network to a server06:21
loaxxyou want a command line prompt in your kitchen?06:21
KevinAlaskano sorry.. looking to setup somethign to check email and surf hopefully.. :/06:21
loaxxyea ok06:21
loaxxthats easy06:21
KevinAlaskareally?! :)06:22
loaxxyou can add a user, that only has access to the browser, the email program06:22
loaxxyou can make it so, that user, when logged in, has the browser automatically load06:22
loaxxand cannot be cloased06:22
loaxxand any other programs you want you can give them06:22
KevinAlaskabut no place for a CPU case.. where I can place it.06:22
loaxxor just give it  few desktop links06:22
loaxxone of those perhaps being a cooking recipe program06:23
KevinAlaskalol. yep. :)06:23
loaxxok06:23
loaxxtheres somethign called microATX06:23
loaxxand you can put it in a cabinet06:23
KevinAlaskaMB right06:23
loaxxyea mobo06:23
loaxxthey just small and use less power06:23
loaxxget a weak processor06:23
loaxxget like 1 gig of ram06:23
KevinAlaskaI know.. also shuttles etc.. I know.  Just wanting to keep down cost and space in cabnets are hard to find in the kitchen06:24
loaxxwell06:24
KevinAlaska:) its mostly a space issue really. =/06:24
loaxxyou can hook the monitor and keyboard up with super long cables to a kvm switch06:24
loaxxso its just the monitor mounted and keyboard somewhere06:24
loaxxor06:24
loaxxa mouse06:24
loaxxwith a on screen keyboard06:24
KevinAlaskaahh.. true.06:24
loaxxvga/kvm switches are dirt cheap and plug and play06:25
KevinAlaskaI have seen KVM cables at least 25 feet.. thinking 50 feet.06:25
loaxxorrrrrr you can use a touch screen06:25
crazy_buskonqueror displays everything as a list view.  I set it as icon view but it just goes back when I close the window.  How do I make it stay?06:25
KevinAlaskathought about that... we use those at work for our clients06:26
loaxxyea i used em at work too.06:26
KevinAlaskaelo touch screens.. heavy little things06:26
loaxxyou ever mount a monitor06:26
loaxxwith a metal arm?06:26
KevinAlaskano but to a wall flush mount yes06:27
KevinAlaskatv with a swing arm in my parents old house06:27
loaxxsame principle but you have an arm to extend it out with06:27
loaxxmounts in the same spots06:28
XceIIwhy not a cordless keyboard and a lcd monitor06:28
XceIIJust a thought06:28
KevinAlaskaI have a small older LCD to use...06:28
loaxxim sure one could imagine so many pros and cons to having the keyboard in the kitchen or not06:29
loaxxand t depends on the size of your kitchn06:29
XceIIya06:29
KevinAlaskacordless is a good idea... I could perchance run a vga extension long enough maybe06:29
loaxxand your kitchen habits06:29
KevinAlaskanot that big.. bigger then some I think but not much06:29
loaxxin my house, that shit would get coverd in booze and god knows what else in no time06:29
KevinAlaskalol06:29
XceIIlol06:29
KevinAlaskaso plastic coat them. :)06:29
XceIInever seen a drunk kee bord06:29
XceIImaybe just a cordless mouse then06:30

ubotuIf you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP307:12

overminddl1I installed the drivers from the restricted manager in the control panel, enabled drivers, seems to work fine, just cannot exceed 640x480, and the wiki does mention a bug about not being able to detect monitor settings and something about a fix, but cannot glean what that fix it07:15

funkjaI'm trying to install some icons in KDE and i am running a little bash script that is doing something and it is telling me 'Checking for convert...  no.' Any idea what 'convert' it is referring to?15:04
trappistfunkja: imagemagick15:08
trappisttoo late15:08
geniia program called convert, possibly?15:08
trappistgenii: convert is part of imagemagick15:08
geniitrappist: That must be why i have it then in /usr/bin15:09
trappistgenii: if you have imagemagick installed, then yeah :)15:09
trappistgenii: dpkg -L imagemagick | grep bin/15:11
* genii does ldd /usr/bin/convert instead15:13

ubunturosthere's something called as kshell in Kubuntu - Is it ksh (Korn Shell?)15:38
trappistubunturos: are you maybe talking about konsole?15:39
Dragnslcr!info kshell15:39
ubotuPackage kshell does not exist in gutsy15:39
ubunturostrappist: yes, I'm talking about the konsole which has bash by default15:39
ubunturosDragnslcr: I'm using Dapper LTS15:39
trappistubunturos: do you have a question?15:39
Dragnslcr!info kshell dapper15:39
ubotuPackage kshell does not exist in dapper15:39
ubunturos:-/ ... it does .. I issued a command kshell konsole and it popped up a konsole15:40
trappistubunturos: konsole doesn't use bash by default - your *user* uses bash by default.  if you changed your shell in /etc/passwd, konsole would use the new shell.15:40
ubunturoshowever, it doesn't appear to be different than the current15:41
ubunturostrappist: well, "I" am my "user" and I don't know specific commands on other shells.15:41
trappistubunturos: kshell isn't a real shell/console/terminal - it's just a kde wrapper for launching shell applications15:41
trappistubunturos: what are you trying to accomplish.15:41
ubunturostrappist: ah, ok.15:41
ubunturostrappist: hmm, you answered my question - it is a kde wrapper15:42
ubunturostrappist: thanks.15:42
trappistubunturos: man kshell for that kind of info ;)15:42
ubunturostrappist: surprisingly, the documentation is not available15:42

trappistubunturos: oh you're on dapper, maybe it isn't15:43
trappistit is on gutsy15:43
ubunturostrappist: hmm, ok. So, if I install ksh from the repos (it is available) how do I invoke it?15:43
=== DarthWar is now known as [WarMage]
nosrednaekimusama: I don't know it....15:44
BluesKajHowdy all  : )15:44
trappistubunturos: you could just say ksh in a bash shell to start a ksh subshell.  if you'd rather use ksh as your shell permanently, change it in /etc/passwd.  if I understand your question correctly.15:44
ubunturostrappist: yes you do. Thanks. Though I had guessed that already, I just wanted to confirm, if that's one way to invoke ksh15:45
geniiubunturos: Alternately to editing /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow just use usermod to alter the default shell for a given user15:45
ubunturostrappist: Thankyou very much :)15:45
trappisthint: use vipw to edit /etc/passwd with lint checking so you don't wreck yourself15:45
ubunturostrappist: for the moment, there's no need for me to get into ksh default, I'm happy with bash.15:45
trappistyeah <3 bash15:45

emilsedghlorddarkpat_: if you have a question about kubuntu, go on16:17
lorddarkpat_as if I don't, hello!!16:17
SSJ_GZWe are taciturn.16:17

emilsedghlorddarkpat_: so stay here and help the others :)16:19
deuryteHELP.. i have dial up, i am on ubuntu now, i installed kubuntu on other drive, i need "setserial" for modem to work, can i put it on a thumb drive and installit from that?  what are the commands to do such??16:20
lorddarkpat_so, which version r ya using? I'm using Gutsy. Can't wait for Hardy, though(stable KDE4!!)16:20
llutzlorddarkpat_: kde-4.1 will be stable, 4.0 won't :)16:20
emilsedghlorddarkpat_: i think most people are gutsy, and hardy will not have kde4 as defafult16:20
lorddarkpat_WHY??????? I want KDE4(crying)16:21
emilsedghlorddarkpat_: there will be packages for kde4 in hardy like now in gutsy16:21
lorddarkpat_I don't wanna install on gutsy cuz it's an RC!!16:21
lorddarkpat_deuryte: Have you installed your restricted drivers?16:22
deurytedo i need them?  how do i do it without a modem??16:22
Sam1337How do I take pictures and videos with my webcam?16:22
lorddarkpat_Yes you do need them. They are on ur Kubuntu CD16:23
lorddarkpat_deuryte:Just go to K-menu>System Settings>Advanced>Restricted Drivers16:23
deuryteif i go look and see if they are in. and it says i dont need them.  what do i do then??16:24
deurytei think i accessed that , to see if there was any there, it said i didnt need them16:25
lorddarkpat_deuryte:That probably means that either the modem is already installed, or Kubuntu hasn't recognised it yet16:25
lorddarkpat_deuryte:Ok, go to K-Menu>Internet>KPPP and see if u can connect16:25
maverickshouldn't it be that whenever i try printing a file, Kjobviewer starts automatically at the tray , just like windows ?!16:26
deurytei research this project.  and concluded that i need the sofware that is called" setserial".  my q is. how can i get it to download to a thumb drive, and what are the commands to geet kubuntu to load it .   kubuntu is on a separtate drive........16:26
lorddarkpat_Is "setserial" a linux binary?16:27
lorddarkpat_oh, I checked it out, too. How come ur modem is on the serial port(that's weird)16:28
deuryteits a serial external dialup modem....  only thing i can use rite now.......16:29
deurytezoom 304916:29
deurytecan i dual boot ubuntu and kubuntu??16:30
lorddarkpat_yes you can16:30
deurytehow..   in the bios??16:30
lorddarkpat_No, make a new partiton, boot up the Kubuntu live cd, install it to that partition, DONE!!16:30
deurytemy ubuntu cd is 64bit. the kubuntu is 32........16:31
deuryteputting u to the test aint i ?........16:31
lorddarkpat_Doesn't matter, as long as your CPU is 64-bit16:32
lorddarkpat_no problem, dude. I like helping ppl out16:32
deurytewhat would happen if...  i hooked up both drives and pushed start.  right now ??16:32
lorddarkpat_your BIOS would get confused and will crash16:34
lorddarkpat_don't use two different drives. Use the same drive with diffrent partitions16:34

llutzSpookyET: it's still beta, so wait until finished and then for the first fixes. then we'll see it's advantages :)16:39
lorddarkpat_Maybe, but I like all my stuff to be stable. I'm happy with 3.5.8, but can't wait for stable KDE416:39
ratttsi have a big problem... whenever i run some programs with wine, it shows up in my tray. for example. i open utorrent and right now its downloading but i can never get the damn program to show its window. its basically hidden the whole time16:39
lorddarkpat_ratts: right click the prog in tray and select the "Show prog" or watever16:40
ratttsi do, it doenst work16:40
ratttsthis usually happens to me whne i use wine16:40
lorddarkpat_UTorrent stinks, use KTorrent16:41
ratttsalright. ill do that. is it really better?16:41
lorddarkpat_yup, it's faster, too16:42
ratttsi tried azureus on linux and it sucks. i hope korrent is better16:42
droomKTorrent i the best16:42

lorddarkpat_ratts:do u like it? and how'd dload so fast?16:44
ratttsi havent seen any torrent programs on linux with a nice gui like this. now lets see if it will not reject the trackeer like most other linux torrent downloaders16:44
ratttsit seems good. ill tyr it16:44
lorddarkpat_hello-------- IT IS GOOD!!16:44
ratttslol16:45
ratttsi liked bitcomet for windows because u could preview your movie downloads before they are done downloading so u know the quality of what you are getting16:45
lorddarkpat_You can do that in Ktorrent, too. You just right click the torrent, go to the temp folder , BINGO!16:46
ratttshowever, it was always slower than utorrent lol16:46
deurytexcell16:46
rattts 0.016:46
ratttsi dont believe u16:46
lorddarkpat_What?16:46
ratttsi went to saved folder in utorrent and tried previewing but it always said file was incomplete16:46
ratttswhat makes it any different than what you are suggesting16:47
lorddarkpat_Cuz' it's WindBlows, silly!!16:47
ratttslol16:47
DragnslcrBecause torrents don't necessarily download a file in byte order16:47
smcintyreBorn free!!!16:47
smcintyreAs Free as Wind Blows!!16:47
riothi16:47
ratttsand ktorrent downloads in byte order?16:47
DragnslcrSo you can't preview a file that's missing important bytes near the beginning of the file16:47
lorddarkpat_Yes, but u can still preview16:47

Foodcomanlingard:  You will probably have to check the forums and stuff.  Otherwise you would have to run something like VMware and run a virtual machine and use it only from windowsif you cant find anything.18:42
lingardif i were to do that would i be able to use the printer as a network printer?18:42

mkzspykedtomato: np!20:18
usamamkz: hmm, whats this, can you explain it?20:18
trappistusama: if you do a .desktop file it's kinda complicated.  if it's a script, the first line will be #!/bin/sh and the second line will be compiz --replace, and it must be set executable.20:19
usamatrappist: yeah i know how to write scripts20:19
trappistusama: ok :)  didn't want to make that assumption20:20
mkzusama: fusion-icon is a utility you can use to run compiz and it will provide you with an icon on your taskbar to interface with it.  I'd suggest heading to #compiz-fusion and typing !fusion-icon.  The factoid will give you directions for how to download the source from git and compile it.  Once compiles you can create a script in .kde/Autostart to launch it....20:20

lingardwhen i go to http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/ there's a whole list of file names20:42

ScorpKingGrahamA: hope you find the problem.20:45
lingardis there a simple way to install packages, like with windows?20:46
jhutchinslingard: Actually, in linux it's much simpler, because the distros usually have volunteer repositories that have all the packages available.  You don't have to go hunt them down.20:47
Sannelingard: I recommend this if you have time: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement20:47
jhutchinslingard: From the command line it's as simple as 'sudo aptitude install <package>'.20:47
GrahamAScorpKing: I think I need a better mp3 decoder20:48
jhutchinslingard: There are also GUI's that let you browse and install available packages, you just click and choose and they're downloade and installed, along with any required libraries or support packages.20:48
Sannelingard: you can also have a look at the help entry you will find in your Kmenu.20:48

lingardwhats the difference between the two?20:52

Captain_HaddockThey're both frontends for apt - a command line utility.20:53
ardchoilleYeah20:53
bogdomaniahello all20:54
Sannelingard: What I like in Synpatic is that it has an install history (I'm not sure if Adept has it meanwhile, though). I also find it easier to use than Adept. But best try both.20:54
bogdomaniais anyone use Project Looking Glass?>20:54
lingardi've installed synaptic and done a search for vmware but its come up with a few different files20:55
lingardwhich do i need?20:55
Captain_Haddocklingard: read the descriptions and find out.20:56
ardchoillelingard: Do yourself a favour. In synaptic, click Setings > Preferences.. then tick the Show package properties.. checkbox. That will aid in showing a description of packages20:57
Captain_Haddocklingard: you might also want to look into Xen - a FOSS equivalent of vmware.20:58

stdinjac0b: "export PATH=/my/new/path:$PATH" for example22:54
ardchoillestdin: Well, he now needs to fix his $PATH, doesn't he?22:55
stdinardchoille: a logout/in will sort that, after he fixes the line22:56
ardchoillestdin: Ah, right22:56
stdineasier than copying by hand22:56
jac0bhow do you add that permently if I close term that PATH is gone now22:56
stdinjac0b: add the line to your ~/.bashrc file22:57
stdinjust add it to the end of the file22:57
bdgrauei followed the instructions on http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-rc2.php22:58
bdgrauebut i cant login into kde422:58
Black_Monkeybdgraue: goes back to kdm?22:58
jac0bso would I add to the file "PATH=/my/new/path$PATH"22:58
bdgraueBlack_Monkey: yes22:58
stdinbdgraue: because it's slightly broken, and we're fixing it22:58
ardchoillejac0b: no22:58
stdinjac0b: almost, you use ':' as a separator22:59
stdinjac0b: so put a : before $PATH22:59
ardchoillejac0b: PATH=/my/new/path:$PATH22:59
bdgraueis there something i can do to help fixing the problem with kde4 rc2?23:00
stdinbdgraue: we know what the problem is, you can fix it yourself too, just edit /usr/lib/kde4/bin/startkde and change line 3 from "export PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/bin/:ATH" to "export PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/bin/:$PATH"23:01
bdgrauestdin: ok, will do that23:02
ardchoillestdin: nasty typo, that23:02
rebuggerhi23:02
stdinardchoille: funny thing is, it's not a typo :p23:02
jac0bthanks for the help that fixed it23:02
stdinardchoille: just mixing bash and make variables is odd23:02
ardchoillestdin: Now I'm confused23:02
ardchoilleAh, ok23:02
lingardcan i install windows programs using wine?23:03
=== zeEez is now known as joek
stdinardchoille: in the Makefile there is "echo export PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/bin/:$PATH >> debian/tmp/usr/lib/kde4/bin/startkde", but make interpreters $P as a variable, go figure :p23:04

Ch1ppyhey, I'm trying to install the kde4 RC2 packages that were just released, but getting an error with kdebase-runtime-bin-kde4 - can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction to get help?23:05
stdinCh1ppy: pastebin the error so we know what it is23:05
Schuenemannhey, how can I know what kind of RAM do I have?23:06
ardchoillestdin: Ah, interesting23:06
Schuenemannwithout looking at it physically :-)23:06
Ch1ppystdin: http://pastebin.com/m7634c96023:06
stdinCh1ppy: make sure you run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" first23:07
bdgrauehmm, changing th ATH to PATH and the same problem here23:07
ardchoillestdin: Interesting that make would do that since there is no space between "P" and "A"23:07
Ch1ppystdin: that now gives me an error about not having kdebase-runtime-bin-kde4 installed :S23:08
stdinCh1ppy: try removing kdelibs5, then dist-upgrade, then install the kde4 packages23:08
stdinardchoille: yeah, make is a strange one23:08
Ch1ppystdin: removing kdelibs5 gives a number of errors about unment dependencies23:09
stdinCh1ppy: ok, try "sudo apt-get remove $(dpkg -l | egrep '(KDE 4|KDE PIM 4|-kde4)' |cut -d ' ' -f 3) kdebase-workspace kdebase-runtime"23:10
TimSAnyone know why when ive pinged google and wikipedia, no website except GMail, my homepage, works?23:10
Ch1ppystdin: there's a few packages that still give me unmet dependencies - should I add those onto the end of the list?23:10
stdinyeah, you get the idea :)23:11
Ch1ppystdin: alrighty :)23:11

Schuenemannhey, how can I know what kind of RAM do I have?23:24
DragnslcrSchuenemann- if your motherboard is less than two years old, most likely DDR223:26
SchuenemannI think it's DDR23:27
Schuenemannbut how about the frequency?23:27
SchuenemannI don't want to open the computer to see that23:28
DragnslcrI dunno offhand23:28
Schuenemannwindoze has some programs that show those kind of info23:28
Schuenemanneverest is the name23:30
maxohi23:31
DragnslcrSchuenemann- sudo lshw23:31
DragnslcrIt'll be near the top23:31
maxoI'm trying to install the Kubuntu KDE 4 RC2 packages, but I keep getting this error: trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/kwriteconfig', which is also in package kdebase-bin . Has anyone succeeded in installing these packages?23:31
SchuenemannDragnslcr, cool23:32

stdinmaxo: remove all the kde4 packages "sudo apt-get remove $(dpkg -l | egrep '(KDE 4|KDE PIM 4|-kde4)' |cut -d ' ' -f 3) kdebase-workspace kdebase-runtime" (add other packages it complains about to the end), then do "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and then install the kde4 packages23:35
nosrednaekimstdin: thanks for the new packages! with kde4 as my main desktop... this should be very helpful :D23:38
maxostdin: will I still have both kde3 and kde4 installed?23:38
LjLstdin, remember there is a factoid?23:38
DerDuiHi at all, ive got a little problem with my hercules webcam classic, its installed, but i cant see any picture with skype and cheese^^23:38
DerDuicould somebody help me please?23:38
stdinLjL: there's another step to it now :p23:38
nosrednaekimmaxo: yes23:38
stdinmaxo: yes23:38
nosrednaekimstdin: BTW, good job on integrating it into kdm... that was the killer step.23:39
maxostdin: ok great, and thanks for the packages :-)23:39
maxostdin: just out of interest, what does apt-get dist-upgrade do then?23:39
stdinmaxo: it installs a new revision of kdebase (kde3) that's packages slightly differently to work with kde423:40
maxostdin: ah, ok23:40
maxoclever stuff23:40
nosrednaekimstdin: might want to add that info to the wiki, nothing about dist-upgrade there....23:41
maxostdin: and is it normal for it to run 'update-initramfs' ?23:41
stdinnosrednaekim: I told Riddell about it, he's the only one who can update the announcement page23:42
nosrednaekimok23:42
stdinmaxo: yeah, there are probably a couple other updates in there besides kdebase23:43
maxostdin: in where? is this like a bleeding edge repository of new kubuntu stuff?23:43
maxoI mean other than KDE?23:43
stdinmaxo: no, I mean other "official" updates :)23:43
nosrednaekimmaxo: no... but its probably also getting some sort of kernel updates or such from the main repositories23:44
maxonosrednaekim: ah ok23:44
stdinmaxo: all these packages in the PPA will eventually be in gutsy-backports anyway23:44
TitanousI just did a clean install of Kubuntu 7.10 into VMware, and all the 'start' menu items are like ':_ Entries in K-menu'...23:45
Titanouswhaat gives?23:45
Titanous*what23:45
maxostdin: also do I need to make changes in order to start a KDE 4 session? Because I'm getting error messages like 'xsetroot not found' when trying to23:46
stdinmaxo: well, that's a small bug :p we're fixing it but you can do it  manually too23:46
stdinjust edit /usr/lib/kde4/bin/startkde and change line 3 from "export PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/bin/:ATH" to "export PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/bin/:$PATH"23:46
nosrednaekimheh..23:47
* nosrednaekim will remember that.23:47
BluesKajTitanous, yes that will change once you use the apps and reboot into a new session23:47
maxostdin: k a typo lol23:47
nosrednaekimBluesKaj: use try out RC2 yet?23:47
stdinmaxo: not exactly23:47
nosrednaekimseems to be a bit easier to install than RC123:47
stdinmaxo: a "make does strange things to bash variables"-o23:48
BluesKajRC2 KDE4 ?23:48
DerDuiis anybody able to help me with my webcam please?23:48
afrolI hate to ask this, since it's probably been asked, but my kdebase-runtime-bin-kde4 is conflicting with kdebase-bin on /usr/bin/kwriteconfig during kde4rc2 install...23:48
nosrednaekimBluesKaj: yes23:49
stdin!brokenkde4 | afrol23:49
ubotuafrol: If you get errors about files being overwritten when installing KDE4 RC2, first use the !terminal to remove old KDE4 packages: « sudo apt-get --purge remove $(dpkg -l | egrep '(KDE 4|KDE PIM 4|-kde4)' |cut -d ' ' -f 3) kdebase-workspace kdebase-runtime ». Then run « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ». Then install KDE4 as normal.23:49
* stdin thinks this is going to be a lonnnnng night...23:49
BluesKajnosrednaekim, don't think i'm gonna bother unless there's some changes worth using23:49
