kub^thank you :)00:05
kub^dvd isos00:05
Daisuke_Idognomebaker!00:06
BluesKajkub^, you'll prolly have to DL those apps00:06
Daisuke_Ido>_>00:06
vzduchif you have an ISO you can burn it w/ any burning program00:06
Daisuke_Idoif k3b won't burn it, the others won't either00:06
BluesKajhis k3b is not doing the job00:06
Daisuke_Idothey all use the same backend, i think00:06
kub^my k3b freezes the pc requiring a hard reset even when i only look at the further actions menu with a blank dvd  in00:07
vzduchif there is no limitation built into growisofs preventing you from burning DL DVDs, it shouldn't be a problem00:07
BluesKajgrowisofs is the actual app that most use00:08
kub^when k3b works thats what it uses yeah, maybe i should just use growisofs from the command line00:09
=== bsander is now known as bsander|gone
vzduchdoes that same DVD recorder work in other OSes (e.g. Windoze)?00:10
vzduchprobably a hardware problem if it freezes on popping in a blank DVD00:10
kub^it seems to work 1 out of say 4 goes, kinda hoping it isnt hardware >.< i'll try another client first :)00:11
vzduchit might already help to just open the case and make sure that all cables are properly connected00:12
kub^yeah good idea00:13
BluesKajkub^, does nero or whatever client you use work in windows ?00:14
kub^yeah with no problems00:14
hitmanWillyhmmm, might be an issue with automounting then00:15
sub[t]rnlautomounting? his fstab?00:16
hitmanWillyor dbus/hal00:17
sub[t]rnlyeah I guess growisofs wont be able to burn a mounted DVD.00:17
hitmanWillyhe said that it freezes when he just sticks the dvd in00:17
sub[t]rnlkub^: make sure noauto is in your fstab for you burning rom00:17
kub^ok sec00:17
kub^is that /etc/fstab coz i dont see a line noauto00:18
kub^?00:18
sub[t]rnlyeah00:18
* BluesKaj studies growisofs man pages ...seems simple enuff ...the examples are clear 00:18
sub[t]rnlstill, theres a pitfall if his fstab is auto mounting the dvd's00:19
sub[t]rnlwon't be able to burn00:19
kub^when i pop a dvd in a window pops up asking me if i want to open it in k3b00:19
hitmanWillyjust cancel that out00:20
sub[t]rnlkub^: show me the line in fstab for your dvdrom00:20
hitmanWillyassuming you want to use growisofs00:21
sub[t]rnlright00:21
kub^apologies i missed it it does have no auto "/dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec 0       0"00:21
sub[t]rnlnoauto is in there00:21

K`zanShould ksoftirqd/1 be taking up 15% of one cpu rather continuously ?01:58
user_hi all.  I installed Nero Linux, and everything went fine.  However, when it scans for supported devices, it reports that it can't get access to /dev/sg0... how do I permanently allow access?  Many thanks!01:58
etfbK`zan: 15% isn't that much, is it?01:59
K`zanout of 200% (both CPUs) no, not really, just never noticed it before.01:59
nosrednaekimuser_: well, "sudo chmod a+w /dev/sg0" should do it.01:59
K`zanNice thing about linux, you are always learning something new :-).01:59
user_nosredaekim: i shall try.  on the forums, people were saying edit this file, comment this or that, but i thought there would be a simpler answer :)02:00
nosrednaekimK`zan: thats the kernel interrupt I think....02:00
etfbK`lan: often while dogpaddling frantically around a whirlpool...02:00
K`zanLOL, that is TOO TRUE LOL!02:00
K`zanJust converted back to kubuntu after a foray into fedora (ewwww!).02:01
etfbK`zan: what was it like?  I last tried it when it was Red Hat, MANY years ago.02:01
K`zanThis version (7.10) seems to like my USB devices :).02:01
K`zanFedora is ****NOT*** our red hat of yesteryear :).02:01
user_nosrednaekim: do i have to reboot for that change to take effect? i restarted nero, and got the same message :/02:01
K`zanetfb: I upgraded it and broke a lot of things, I suppose I should have known better...  Managed to kluge fixes to get it going but I just am NOT a fan of RPMs.02:02
K`zanDeb is the best :).02:02
K`zanDeb / deb derived is the best :).02:02
etfbK`zan: that's my experience too.02:02
nosrednaekimuser_: nope,no need to restart02:03
K`zanNow if I can remember what my CUPS net work printer URL is, I'll be set :).02:03

user_nosrednaekim: hmmm... that didn't work then.  how do i load the sg module?02:05
nosrednaekimuser_: the what?02:05
nosrednaekimuser_: try running nero as root02:05
user_k hang on02:06
user_nosrednaekim: Ok _that_ works.... now i'm confused!02:07
user_would chown dwflo:dwflo /dev/sg0  work?02:07
nosrednaekimuser_: i'm not sure, but there is really no harm in running it as root, in fact its slightly better02:08
=== ubuntu__ is now known as bmk789
user_nosrednaekim: is there a way to do it automatically, or will i have to open a terminal and "sudo nero"?  (not that it's a lot of work, but...)02:08
bmk789what does a grub read error mean?  it just started after i switched my motherboard02:09
bmk789user_: you could create a shortcut to run "kdesu nero"02:09
user_bmk789: how do i do that?02:09
bmk789user_: right click your desktop and create new link to application02:10
user_ok02:10
user_i've done _that_ before02:10
geniibmk789: make sure hd is plugged into identical channel eg: primary or secondary if IDE also that head/sectors/cylinder mapping is same02:10
bmk789genii: everythings plugged in the same02:11
nosrednaekimuser_: make an icon whose command is "kdesudo nero"02:11
user_ok02:11
pastrycan someone please help me step by step on how to share a folder so that my windows pc can see it? i can see the shared folder from windows but its inaccessible. in the add/edit share window in kubuntu, all unspecified users is set to allow, and the only specified user is root, which has admin access rights. but i cannot access the folder from windows, though i do see it02:11
geniibmk789: Then likely bios maps the drive differently than the previous one did02:12
etfbuser_: he meant kdesu nero, not kdesudo...02:12
user_aha! "sudo chown username:username /dev/sg0" also works!02:12
etfbuser_: sounds like a Japanese anime, doesn't it!02:12
nosrednaekimetfb: actually,I meant kdesudo02:12
user_you guys are right, i'm sure!02:12
bmk789genii: the /dev files are the same as before02:12
user_aren't they the same?02:12
etfbnosrednaekim: really?  Sorry!  What's the difference?02:12
geniibmk789:  /dev files have nothing to do with how bios sees the geometry of the drive02:13
nosrednaekim!kdesudo | etfb02:13
ubotuetfb: 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)02:13
user_can i use them interchangably?02:13
user_kdesu is definitely a faster type02:14
etfbnosrednaekim: foo!  You learn something new every nanosecond round here.  I'll have to go look up the history behind that.02:14
nosrednaekimuser_: I think in gutsy, kdesu is juct linked to kdesudo02:14

etfbgenii: ah well, in contrast I don't have time, so since I've finished my lunch break, I'd better go back to work...02:17
user_i had this before, and i always got an "unmounting error" whenever i tried to eject the disc.  How do i fix this one?02:17
geniietfb: Enjoy! ;)02:18
nosrednaekimuser_: try "sudo eject /dev/sg0"02:18
user_nosrednaekim: yes, that will eject the disc, but how do i stop two instances of mounting the disc in the first place?02:18
nosrednaekimuser_: oh..02:19
user_in the windows that pop up, the disc is blue, and in the other window, the disc is golden... what the heck?02:19
nosrednaekimuser_: ah... its cause you are running nero as root, so the root "user" tries to mount it as well02:19
crush_grooveuser ./do you have a disc in the cd tray ?02:20
BluesKajK`zan, check /var/run/cups/cups.sock02:20

nosrednaekimcrush_groove: umm I don't think you see whats going on here02:26
crush_groove gotcha mike02:26
crush_groove Ill back out02:26
user_nosrednaekim: so do you know how to fix this?02:26
nosrednaekimuser_: did you notice that the icons are different?02:26
user_yes02:26
user_when i first installed gutsy, this happened, but stopped when i removed Dolphin.  But know i have no idea what to do02:27
nosrednaekimon if them is the default icon scheme for you, the other is the system default..... its a KDEsudo bug for sure, and I think the creator of kdesudo is already working on it02:28
user_*now02:28
user_so i just gotta wait, then, eh?02:28
nosrednaekimuser_: basically, yes... but when one of those dialogs pop up, select the menu which has the "silvery" looking icon02:28
user_what if i used the default icon scheme... then this problem wouldn't happen?02:29
nosrednaekimuser_: it would, but you couldn't tell the dialogs apart, so you'd be worse off02:29
user_ugh.02:29

BluesKajnosrednaekim, we hope .....02:36
user_nosrednaekim: it turns out i had two instances of konqueror running in the background when i was inserting the disc (i only found out when i rebooted, and on startup, i had to give superuser password).  I killed the instances, inserted the disc, and *poof* - only one window opened!02:36

jrsimsOk, so I went into my monitor and display settings and I get this error: "The module Monitor & Display could not be loaded".03:23
jrsimsHow do I fix this? I cannot touch any settings.03:23
micojrsims: And, looking for cloning or a separate display03:23
jhutchinspastry: Your mixer selections are pretty much determined by the hardware.03:23
jrsimsmico: do you know what is up with my last issue here?03:23
jrsimsmico: not being able to adjust my monitor and display settings in Administrator mode?03:24
jhutchinsAll kmix or alsamixer do is provide a GUI to change the settings.03:24
* jhutchins is not sure just what "set my sound output to 4.0" means, but suspects it's an output mode.03:25
micojrsims: Well, no... I dont know jack shit about your system  :)03:25
jrsimsmico: it's saying "Possible reasons: An Error occurred during your last KDE upgrade leaving an orphaned control module OR You have old third party modules lying around." This is stupid because this is a fresh install with updates applied.03:26
jrsimsmico: know how I could reinstall the said modules?03:26
nosrednaekimjrsims: try running "kcmshell displayconfig"03:28
micojrsims: something other than displaythings have gone seriously awry...03:28
jrsimsnosrednaekim: ok, now what?03:29
nosrednaekimjrsims: did that work?03:29
jrsimsnosrednaekim: got a window that said I needed to be in Admin mode to do anything. so I switched to that mode and got "The module Monitor & Display could not be loaded"03:30
jrsimsso same story03:30
nosrednaekimjrsims: try "kdesudo kcmshell displayconfig"03:30
jrsims(kde seems really fragile)03:30
jrsimsk03:30
jrsimsnosrednaekim: same exact thing.03:31
nosrednaekimjrsims: yech. are you running XGL?03:32
jrsimsno03:32
micojrsims: kde is a bit "fragile"... But seems like something was missing in the install..... Checksummed the install-cd?03:32
jrsimsshould I reinstall KDE over apt?03:32
nosrednaekimjrsims: are you sure you're not? do you even have it installed?03:33
jrsimsmico: no, I didn't checksum. After install, it was fine. Just now it isn't.03:33
jrsimsnosrednaekim: absolutely positive. I did not install that.03:33
miconosrednaekim: Could possibly missing/broken parts be fixed by reinstalling with apt?03:34
nosrednaekimjrsims: hmm k...03:34
nosrednaekimjrsims: is this a ubuntu install or a fresh kubuntu?03:34
jrsimsnosrednaekim: it's a pretty fresh kubuntu with updates applied.03:34
nosrednaekimjrsims: humm.03:34
jrsimsand like I said, I was able to get into this part of KDE before. Not now though.03:35
micojrsims: did thing work BEFORE the update?03:35
jrsimsyes03:35
jrsimsThe problem started when I went to use the dual display settings.03:35
jrsimsthen crapped out.03:35
jrsimsI am just running on a thinkpad03:36
jrsimsno weird hardware03:36
jrsimsintel gma03:36
micojrsims: All PC's are weird hardware... :)03:36
nosrednaekimodd, did that kcmshell spit out any errors to the konsole?03:36
micojrsims: Did you "fiddle" with the system earlier?, before the upgrade?03:38
jrsimsmico: installed some packages like irssi, nmap, etc.03:38
jrsimswould reinstalling KDE help? or is there a way to revert to default video settings and start over?03:39
micojrsims: me not know jack s*t03:40
micojrsims: Hey! Ati & laptop... What happens if the secondary display is ON and connected when You cold boot the machine?03:41
jrsimsmico: I lose the bottom and right sides of the display. it runs at a higher rez but my laptop screen only displays 1280x800 of it.03:44

devolicWhat's the most favored build among everyone?03:47
micodevolic: each, for thos who built03:47
jrsimsmico: my attached monitor is still blank, but then my laptop has the cropped picture.03:48
micojrsims: what did you do to acchieve that? ... Which steps did you take, what do you have & what do you wnat03:50
micojrsims: thinkpad? what model? What chip eats your muffin? How can you be cured?03:51
jrsimsdoesn't sound like anyone in here can help me. Just going to reinstall kde and pray.03:52

Voyage__ardchoille how do i know the pid of it04:25

ardchoilleVoyage__: pidof d3lphin04:27
Voyage__its dolphin. not d3lphin04:27

sub[t]rnlNeville: how do you mean, it isn't being recognized?04:30
sub[t]rnlNeville: it doesn't show up in sudo fdisk -l04:31
NevilleIt shows up in there, what I mean is how to I get it to be used?04:31
ardchoilleVoyage__: That's strange because when I run dolphin and do "pidof dolphin" nothing is returned. However, a pid *is* returned when I do "pidof d3lphin"04:31
sub[t]rnlNeville: it will be used when your physical ram is full, as a backup04:31
Voyage__i want to increase security of my folders. i want any users to only be able to view its contents. a password should be asked every time if modifing or deleting...  how can do it?04:32
NevilleNo, because it's not appearing in Kinfocentre04:32
NevilleIt says Swap Partition Not available04:32
NevilleIt's because I had to do a frankensteins monster of sorts to my hard drives, in order to keep alot of data that I can't replace anytime soon04:33
NevilleAnd that meant lots of messy cutting and pasting of partitions, not to mention fiddling with Grub alot04:34

Jyzygzel-doesn't ubuntu come with NTFS-3g04:44
ardchoilleVoyage__: A Linux system is too hostile an environment for a virus to thrive and propogate. Any downloaded file must be made executable before it can even run, and then, without admi provs, can't do any damage to anything outside of $HOME.04:44

Saagari need to know about multicasting,  can anybody help05:36
jessiehey, does anybody know if kubuntu 7.10 with kde4 is going to have a diff kernel?05:37
etfbSaagar: it's a big topic. Can you narrow down your question a little?05:37
etfbjessie: AFAIK, you'll be able to upgrade to KDE4 when it arrives (January?) but it's independent of the kernel upgrades05:38
Saagaryes. Whenever I enable multicasting in my ip cam, my LAN gets congested05:38

bazhangnot so, you can install it now :}05:39
etfbSaagar: it's well beyond my area of knowledge.  What I'd suggest is rephrasing the question with a different focus.  A lot of people are lurking here but only glancing this way occasionally.  You may catch their eye with different keywords.05:39
jessiewhat? hardy? and i meant if there was going to be a kernel update for kubuntu05:40
etfbjessie: new kernels come down the line every couple of months at least.  I got ?4 with feisty.05:40
bazhangfor gutsy?05:40
jessieyeah05:40
etfbjessie: probably about due for a new one, actually05:40
twylightkubuntu = debian = linux = linus torvalds controls the kernel updates05:40

jessiemy bad... im a bit tired.... and he does? like, update from 2.6.20-15-generic to .16?05:41
bazhangcurrently 2.6.22.14-generic05:41
etfbjessie: that sort of thing comes out when the gods of Ubuntu say.  Won't be that long.  Why do you want a new kernel?05:41

twylight127.0.0.1 <305:43

twylightno, kubuntu is the same thing as ubuntu with a different UI05:43

Ch1ppyhey, I'm trying to play a game (nexuiz) but every so often X takes up 100% CPU usage for several seconds with no cause.  It's even caused blank screens... Can anyone help me out?06:12
SaagarBut My LAN bandwidth 100 Mbps06:12
onishidatoCh1ppy: how much ram do you have?06:12
Ch1ppyonishidato: 2 gigs, and I'm nowhere near that amount06:12
Saagari enabled only 6 Mbps in the device06:12
Saagarwould that clog my network?06:13
oobeSaagar,  but you want use higher res ?06:13
onishidatoCh1ppy: wow06:13
Ch1ppyonishidato: :)06:13
Saagaryes06:13
onishidatoCh1ppy: and your VGA card?06:13
Ch1ppyonishidato: eVGA eGeForce 6800 GT06:13
SaagarI suspect it is streaming outside my LAN.06:13
onishidatoCh1ppy: maybe you should check your card, cause some cards doesn't support your game setting06:14
Ch1ppyonishidato: it handles the game really well (100+ FPS) except when X randomly spikes06:14
Saagaroobe: What do you think?06:14
oobeSaagar,  yeah it could cause 100 Mbps is still only theoretical speed plus are you streaming to more than one person at once06:14
Ch1ppyonishidato: so I don't think it's related to the game settings or anything exceeding the capabilities of my box06:14
onishidatoCh1ppy: does it usually happen?06:15
SaagarOobe: How can I limit streaming to a particular group?06:16
Ch1ppyonishidato: you mean the X spikes?  I'm watching it now, and it doesn't seem to happen without nexuiz running, but I don't see it being an issue with nexuiz06:16
SaagarSay the ip address range 192.168.11.80 - 192.168.11.8906:16
Ch1ppyonishidato: it does spike to ~4-7% cpu every now and then, but nowhere near the magnitude that I see while playing06:16
oobeSaagar, not sure06:16
onishidatoCh1ppy: i c06:17
Saagarokay oobe. Thank you anyway06:17
oobeSaagar,  ur probably better limiting access to the ip cam06:17
Ch1ppyonishidato: yeah... I'm a little confused as to what might cause sudden, short spikes like that too though.  I can't think of anything that would do that... :S06:17
oobehave u checked whats going on with netstat ?06:18
onishidatoCh1ppy: or maybe your box is too fast :)06:18

onishidatorohan: which one?06:19
rohanonishidato: acer_acpi06:19
Ch1ppyonishidato: hehe.  I doubt it though, since I can see the X process spiking in CPU usage when the lag happens, not just nexuiz compensating or something (I actually had that issue with CS 1.6 on windows before though, dual core problems :) )06:19

oobeSaagar, as for limiting streaming to a particular group you could use ip tables to set a rule on what ip ranges can access the ip cam06:26

phil_hardcoreoh noo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!06:27
monzieHI all06:27
monzieI am trying to setup a dedicated partition for builds06:27
monzieShould i user ResierFS instead of ext3?06:27
oobeMani213, my computer was retarted once06:28
phil_hardcoreno use ext306:28
Dr_willisI see no reason to use reiserfs over ext3.06:28
Mani213ye like it was configuring after installing linux06:28
monzieDr_willis: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=4#doc_chap406:28
Dr_willisUnless you got some very speficic idea/needs as to why you need reiser.06:28
Dr_willismonzie,  just because gentoo suggests it . doesnt make it a good idea. :)06:28
monzieThe gentoo handbook says reiser is faster than ext306:28
phil_hardcoreanyone using enlightenment?06:28
Dr_willismonzie,  ive heard its faster at SOME operations.06:28
monzieDr_willis: But i could not get ubuntu's position on filesystems, so aksed06:28
monzieDr_willis: for builds?06:29
monzieDr_willis: essentiallly i want to build KDE4 on the partition06:29
Dr_willisphil_hardcore,  been using the gos  and Geubuntu desktops a little. :)06:29
Mani213how do i install it manualy when the drives are there but it doesnt let me06:29
Mani213do i check the home drive or the swap driveÉ06:29
phil_hardcorepsh06:29
oobeMani213, did u try using the alternate install06:30
Dr_willismonzie,  i aint touching KDE4 for some time. :)  heh heh .  I dont think you would gain much by using reiserfs on the build filesystem. but try it both ways and see I guess.06:30
Mani213what do you mean alternate installÉ06:30
monzieDr_willis: ok. i like building kde4.06:30
phil_hardcorei would just wait on kde 4 until the stable comes out06:30
monzieDr_willis: Thought my laptop would maybe able to build it faster if i used reiserfs06:31
Dr_willislaptop hd's are often so slow.. its.. well.. sad. :(06:31
oobeMani213, there is a alternate install disk that doesnt use a DE it is all command like a Debian installer and it is much more versatile06:31
Dr_willisMy poor laptop has a  4800 rpm hd. :(06:31
Dr_willisdistcc an a lan of helper machines may help more. :)06:31
Mani213okay well is there any way of resuming the installationÉ06:31
oobeu are better off starting again06:32

Sulo_SeppaHey guys07:41
sub[t]rnlGreetings07:42
Sulo_SeppaI just got a new laptop yesterday, it is a HP Pavilion dv9628nr, And I just burned a kubuntu 7.10 x86_64 iso, will kubuntu work properly or is it useless for me to try the install? (I don't want it to screw vista up, I use it for some things)07:43
lhadjiSulo_Seppa, you can run it off the cdrom and see how it runs :D07:45
=== Agrajag` is now known as Agrajag
Sulo_SeppaWell I was also wondering if it works wireless or if you still have to set all that crap up?07:46
praveenmhi, is there any way to transfer files using ANY im client to gtalk on winxp07:46
ardchoilleSulo_Seppa: Is that laptop 64bit?07:47
Sulo_Seppayes07:47
ardchoilleok07:47
lhadjiSulo_Seppa, it wont hurt to put the cd into the laptop and load it up. Anything you do wont affect your hard drive until you install it. Who knows, maybe wireless will work on boot :D07:47
olbjquit07:48
Sulo_SeppaOh I wish. but I've grown accustom to having to grab one of my dusty cat5's and downloading some windows driver and doing that fun process07:48
AshyIsMehello07:48
sub[t]rnlI run vista + 64bit kubuntu on another computer just fine.  I would recommend using the vista partition resizing utility though, as I've came across errors when using anything else, like partition magic and such07:48
AshyIsMedoes the iso from this link http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde4-rc2.php  allow you to install kubuntu?07:48
AshyIsMeor is it just a bootable livecd without the hdd install script?07:48
sub[t]rnlSulo_Seppa: soon you will see the light though, and find that the vista partition is just taking up space :p07:49
Sulo_SeppaWell, I normally just use linux only, but there are some nice things about this. I may get rid of it if I get full functionality in linux (which I doubt)07:50
Sulo_SeppaSo use vista resize?07:50
sub[t]rnlyup07:50
lhadjiSulo_Seppa have you run kubuntu live off the cd on the laptop before?07:50
ubuntui tried fixing grub but doesnt seem to be working07:50
sub[t]rnlvista doesn't like anything else touching the drives, go figure07:50
Sulo_Seppanah, I just got done burning the iso07:50

ibilicI don't get this thing... I install Kubuntu on my computer, and I just try to update everything using Adept... and it crashes... how lame is that?07:53
ibilicand then I want my USB drive to work... and I have to look up on the forums how to deal with the bug07:53
ubuntuis there any way of fixing grub while on linux07:53
lhadjiSulo_Seppa, cool. Let us know if kubuntu found all your drivers when you ran it live from the cd on your laptop :)07:53
ibilicand then the K-meny thing... again... looking up on the internet how to fix it07:53
Sulo_SeppaOkay, well partition will be easy since I have 2 HDDs (one has nothing on it yet, both 120GB), but will kubuntu set up grub right for vista? I've done dual-boot with xp, I don't know if vista is too much different.07:53
ibilicnothing seems to work the easy way!07:53
sub[t]rnlubuntu: get into the grub shell via -> sudo grub07:53

johann787Hi, does anyone know what the default root password is after install, unable to do a sudo command08:14
INFOEXCLUDEDisnt there any automatic way ?08:14
johann787no08:14
ardchoillejohann787: There is no root pass, sudo uses your user passwd08:14
jussi01!root | johann78708:15
ubotujohann787: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo08:15
sub[t]rnlPJC121: using that method will only repair grub on a harddrive that has its installation files08:15
johann787I tries to use sudo but my username which I entered in the beginning is not in the sudo list08:15

sub[t]rnltuxwulf_: you'll need to edit your /etc/network/interfaces09:00
tuxwulf_sub[t]rnl: I can not do so with ifconfig on the fly any more?09:00
sub[t]rnlnot sure09:01
ActionParsnipspitfire, then sudo cp the .so file to /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins09:01
sub[t]rnlnot if you want it static09:01
atwo1ok09:01
ActionParsnipspitfire, then restart your browser09:01
atwo1sub[t]rnl: thanks my net works now09:01
atwo1ok09:03
tuxwulf_Gee...... that bums me out... all that automatic stuff is for MS users...09:03
atwo1im getting this issue where the screen is pushed accross from the left side by about 200px (this is in the native res)09:03
atwo1im enablding the nvidia thing in restricted drivers09:04
sub[t]rnltuxwulf_: ifconfig'ing an ip up will only be temporary anyway, when you restart networking it gets read from /etc/network/interfaces09:04
ActionParsnipatwo1, you could use your monitor controls :D09:04
atwo1last time i did this on restart it didnt detect the screen at all once it was loaded up09:04
atwo1ActionParsnip: that doesn't work09:04
atwo1anywhere near where its meant to09:04
tuxwulf_sub[t]rnl:  Yes, but I want to be able to change it onnnnnnnne fly09:04
sub[t]rnltuxwulf_: then ifconfig your little heart out bro :D09:04
tuxwulf_sub[t]rnl: ... Yes... I think you do not understand what my issue is...09:05
atwo1ok it's enabled, now if i restatr and it doesn't detect it, i have to reinstall kubuntu09:05
atwo1again09:05
ActionParsnipatwo1, do sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade09:05
atwo1wait its restarting09:06
ActionParsnipatwo1, so you have the latest09:06
atwo1GREAT09:06
atwo1it says 'no signal' and i can't see anything on the desktop09:06
sub[t]rnltuxwulf_: heh, you can set a static ip with ifconfig, but when you restart the network, it will not hold.  Adding the ip's to your interface file will keep.  No, you can't do it on the fly09:06
tuxwulf_My eth0 gets an IP by DHCP. But, I want to hang my computer directly in the internet with one of my fixed addresses, just for a moment. So I use ifconfig to reconfigure the eth0. But the moment I plug in the public cable, my eth0 is downed, and the settings deleted.09:06
ActionParsnipatwo1, ok then boot to your live cd, mount your drive and copy back your original xorg.conf09:06
atwo1ok here's one for u09:06

atwo1so it doesnt even recognise the screen is there09:32
etfbatwo1: gotcha!  I suggest booting to a text login (Alt+F1 will let you do that if you're not there already) and then use the dpkg-reconfigure command.  Let me check the syntax...09:33

Sulo_SeppaWell, that's nice. First off, the live dvd didn't work for graphics unless I put noapic and other stuff, and second, it didn't have the wireless drivers.. I thought that kinda stuff was added in 7.10. How am I expected to connect to the internet if I need to download the drivers from the internet?09:39
atwo1ok the story is.......09:40
etfbSulo_Seppa: I sympathise; I'm having hell with wifi drivers too.  Mind you, it's mostly self-inflicted in my case...09:40
atwo1i installed kubuntu, the res is completely rooted in native. it's meant to be 1440x900 but using that forces the left edge of the screen inwards horizontally by about 200px. i enter the restricted drivers and turn on the nvidia detection and on restart it screws everything09:40
atwo1im abuot to reinstall09:40

etfbSulo_Seppa: I uninstalled knetworkmanager and can't get it back.  Wifi is included, but your installation may have stuffed up.09:43

danskoHi11:47
danskocan someone help me?11:47
luke_with what?11:47
danskoi got a problem11:47
danskoi used opensuse first11:47
Tw|sTAtleast it's just firefox running slow, and not a distribution upgrade gone wrong...  A few weeks ago, I came in from work exhausted, not thinking, and ran the Kubuntu Dist. upgrade via synaptic... it worked... at first... but 1/3 way thru the upgrade, it bricked!  I ended up having to backup everything I could via tarballing the directories, and had to reinstall... so I upgraded that way instead11:47
danskobut i tried kubuntu now11:47
danskobut the problem is, theres a lot diffrent from opensuse11:48
danskoi want to install programs like compiz fusion and the themes and stuff11:48
luke_right11:48
danskobut i can only install compiz manager11:48
luke_you use apt11:48
luke_or adept manager11:48
danskoye i tried11:48
danskobut theres a lot less software then opensuse11:48
Tw|sThave you installed synaptic11:48
danskoor can i add repositories?11:48
luke_yes you can11:48
luke_sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list11:49
Tw|sT'sudo apt-get install synaptic'11:49
luke_add repos to that11:49
danskooke where can i find a list with all repositories?11:49
luke_I don't think there is one :)11:49
luke_there is one for Compiz Fusion11:49
danskololz, where i find the repos then?11:49
danskoyes but i want community repos11:49
danskowith lots of craps :P11:49
Tw|sTsearch google: Kubuntu Apt repos11:49
danskooki11:50
danskoty11:50
Tw|sT;)11:50
Tw|sTnp11:50
luke_and enable universe and multiverse repos in sources.list11:50
Tw|sTabsolutely11:50
danskosorry, im not familiar with text mode and console11:51
danskou just used windowmanager11:51
Tw|sTyou'd like synaptic, alot , I think.  it's totally graphical11:51
luke_That's Gnome isn't it?11:51
danskoi dont know, i just use kde11:51
luke_use Adept Manager11:51
Tw|sTit works regardless11:51
luke_:)11:51
danskocan i ask you something11:52
luke_I don't like Gnome11:52
luke_yes11:52
danskome neither11:52
Tw|sTI don't either11:52
Tw|sTsure11:52
danskois kubuntu really the most popular distro?11:52
danskoand user friendly?11:52
luke_yes11:52
danskololz oke11:52
luke_It has been for me anyway :)11:52
danskoi think i REALLY REALLY REALLY need to get used to kubuntu11:52
danskocuz im like holy crap wtf is this11:52
Tw|sTlast I remember, it was... but check http://distrowatch.com11:52
danskook, i used opensuse before, and i liked it alot11:52
luke_hehe11:52
danskolots of software and stuff11:52
johann787I found out how to enable the root account in the server version Its rather simple and should be documented11:53
danskoyes i used that11:53
luke_I don't really like SuSE11:53
danskowhy not?:)11:53
johann787boot the cd again and choose rescue11:53
ardchoillejohann787: They don't want it documented11:53
johann787ask for a command shell and change the password for root11:53
luke_It's really confusing11:53
Tw|sTpersonally, and I've used many distros, Kubuntu has been the most friendly distro I've used since 199711:53
danskowhy's that?11:53
ardchoillejohann787: Please don't post that here, it's neither recommended nor necessary11:54
danskook, well i like kubuntu alot especially its very fast i think11:54
johann787If I´m setting up a server I want to enebla the root acount , but if im setting up a desktop machine the sudo is fine11:54
danskobut i need to get used to all the functions11:54
luke_indeed11:54
ardchoillejohann787: That's fine for your server, but we should follow recommended and supported procedure when advising others.11:54
danskodo you think there's more software available to (k)ubuntu than for SuseA?11:54
dansko-a11:55
johann787Well you need to know about the sudo BUG in the 7.10, I´m unable to do a sudo when I´m finished installing11:55
Tw|sTbest bet... if you want root active, don't use Kubuntu, or Ubuntu... use Debian 4.0r1 instead.  It's more designed for hackers/programmers11:55
luke_dansko: there is the same ammount11:55
Tw|sThave you tried using 'sudu su' ?11:55
danskoohyeah, its universal aint it?11:55
Tw|sTyup11:55
danskoso if i want to use repos from suse i can use them on kubu?11:56
danskofor exampl11:56
Tw|sTnegative11:56
danskoe11:56
danskoi thought so11:56
Tw|sTthe packages are compiled differently11:56
luke_you can use alien11:56
luke_but it doesn't always work11:56
Tw|sTsuse uses RPMs, like Fedora/RHEL11:56
ardchoilleUse of alien is also not recommended.11:56
danskook11:56
ardchoille!alien11:56
ubotuRPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)11:56
Tw|sTKubuntu uses DEB packages, like debian11:57
danskoaha ok :)11:57
luke_you can always complie it11:57
danskoyes but i think compiling is a risk11:57
Tw|sTnow, you *can* use Debian packages natively11:57
danskoi dont even know what it means exactly ;p11:57
Kohlrabidansko: why?11:57
KohlrabiIt just takes ages11:57
danskocuz last time u needed to enable xgl11:57
KohlrabiWhen you need to compile every app11:58
luke_I think not11:58
Tw|sTI've had no probs compiling from source, other than getting the dev environment together in the first place...11:58
danskoi used this command: gnome-xgl-switch --enable-xgl and i forgot one -11:58
danskomy pc wouldnt boot anymore :P thats only a command11:58
Tw|sTthe problem was that there is no meta-package for it11:58
danskowhen i try to compile amsn the computer trips like hell11:58
Tw|sTso, ya gotta know what you need.11:58
Kohlrabidansko: maybe just x wasn't starting?11:58
danskoi dont know, im a newbie to linu11:58
danskox11:58
Kohlrabiok :)11:59
dansko:p11:59
danskoima find some repos11:59
danskoty for help :)11:59
luke_:)11:59
Tw|sTthat's one area where I've found that Fedora's package system was better thought out... but, all distros are constantly improving, and I expect that that will be remedied soon enough... ppl just have to request it and it'll eventually happen11:59
Tw|sTbut, that said, I sucessfully installed a good dev environment, enough to compile UnrealIRCD, espernet IRC services, and bopm onto a Athlon 64 3000+ running Kubuntu 7.10-x6412:02
Tw|sTit's been running flawlessly now for about 6 weeks on that installation.12:02
Tw|sTthough, I *do* have one complaint... but it's with another vendor... UltraVNC should be ported to Linux.  I say that because it's got the best security model of any VNC server that I've used since VNC arrived on the scene12:04
Kohlrabithe good thing is that you can "apt-get build-dep" for packages which are present in apt12:04
KohlrabiI didn't knew that a while back, gave me headaches compiling mplayer-SVN :)12:04
* Tw|sT works on his Linux & Windows Servers remotely, most of the time, using Xming to make a XDCMP connection to the Xserver itself.12:05
Tw|sT(rather, uses UltraVNC for windows servers, and Xming for Linux)12:05
Tw|sTSynaptic, which is a front end for apt, has that option (build-dep).  It also has an option that auto adds recommended packages as if they were deps.  This is really handy.12:08
Tw|sTbtw, synaptic is multi platform.  I started using it on Red Hat 8.0-psyche, and have used it on every distro since.  On a few of them, I did have to add repos (found them via a google search), but overall it's been the best package manager that I've found12:10
Kohlrabiwasn't synaptic the GNOME-pendant to adept? :)12:11
ardchoilleKohlrabi: most gnome apps can run quite well in kde and vice-versa12:12
Tw|sTI'm not sure that it's gnome dependent, but then again, I always install support for gnome apps.  Thing is, I do that only so that I can run gnome apps within KDE12:12

Tw|sTanyways, as soon as I install Kubuntu, I open Konsole, and run 'sudo apt-get install synaptic'.  After Synaptic is installed, I install the two meta packages 'KDE' & 'gnome'.  This installs all the base packages for both environments.  From there, you can install anything else you need with a much higher level of success of it working.12:18

ardchoillecrush_groove: It edits /etc/X11/xorg.conf12:57

bazhangVoyage_: firestarter is merely a front end for iptables; once you set it, you don't need to leave it in the menu bar, like norton or pc-cillin13:31
crush_grooveVoyage_,  .. open firestarter/edit/preferences/minimize to systray'13:31

crush_groovebazhang,  is correct13:31
bazhanghttp://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm Voyage_ read that please13:32
Voyage_crush_groove i have already enabled that option. but despite that. it auto disappears. i wan to see it all the time.  eg. to see alerts (play goes red) when a network intrusion is done.13:35
=== kerakol is now known as jessy_james
dreamcoderany clue?13:36
crush_grooveVoyage_,  firestarter is woefully inadequate for seeing a network intrusion ...  if you just want to watch ips bounce off . its good  any1 who is good enough to intrude your nw is certainly good enough to get around fs.. if you have enabled BOTH the boxes in preferences id google it . cuz mine works fine on gutsy and on fiesty13:38
Voyage_how will i know for any intrussion has done... any even if i dont need to see the icon. why ... does it auto disappears..?13:39
Voyage_i want to see the icon changed to red when intrusion occurs. and i can see the blocked ip port in "events"13:42
mohammadHello, How can I add all packages of Debian Etch DVD to Kubuntu Software Sources?13:42
mohammadcrush_groove: ?13:44
Lynouremohammad: it's not adviced for... But some packages will install fine.13:44
bazhangmohammad: why would you want to?13:45
mohammadLynoure: Why? Kubuntu is debian-based and I think Debian packages should work properly in kubuntu, should they?13:46
mohammadbazhang: I have 3 DVD of debian and they have many packages, so I want to add them to my resources13:47
bazhangmohammad: what packages?13:47
ardchoillemohammad: Yes, kubuntu is debian-based, but there have been many modifications.. and I have seen people mess their systems by mixing distro packages.13:47
Lynouremohammad: debian-based and debian are two slightly different things. The versions of software differ, and you might end up with a mess of debian and kubuntu that no-one wants to help you with13:47
LynoureIf you are capable of helping yourself, and find the risk of breakage worth it - or just interesting - go for it.13:48
mohammadbazhang: ardchoille: Lynoure: u mean there are special packages (for example Eclipse) for Debian and Kubuntu separately?13:50
ardchoillemohammad: yes, this is why there are debian repos and ubuntu repos.13:50
bazhangmohammad: you can search at packages.ubuntu.com; you can also add a firefox plugin to search from your google search window13:51
bazhangmohammad: alternately, you can open up konsole and type apt-cache search packagename and see if it is in there13:52
mohammadbazhang:  ardchoille: Oops, I have downloaded 4 un-useful DVDs? :((13:52
ardchoillemohammad: Useful if you plan to run debian :)13:52
bazhangmohammad: only if you don't want to run debia13:52
bazhangn13:52
crush_grooveardchoille,  is part of the trick to successfully getting a larger package selection to make yourself aware of alternate repositorys ? or is thier a main base that will load to your apt-get and thats it ..?13:53
mohammadbazhang: ardchoille: Unfotunatelly I dont remeber who told me to download these DVDs to add to Kubuntu repos, so I cant kill him :D13:54
ardchoillecrush_groove: I always stick with the official repositories and add medibuntu. In doing this I have found that everything I need is in the repos. It does little good to add millions of repos if the packages are able to break things.13:55
crush_groovenodz ., thats what I have . ty13:56
ardchoillecrush_groove: If you're running Gutsy, then all of the good repos shold be enabled by default.13:56

BluesKajShawnRisk, did you try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?16:38

crush[A] ahh gotcha16:53
msemtdWaltzingAlong: hmm, it seems that each time I kill one of the processes locking the database, another takes its place. Maybe that's kicked off the upgrade again16:54
ibilicwhat does it mean when it says in Adept manager under Requested in red letters: "BREAK (install)"?16:55
WaltzingAlongmsemtd: is there still the python script running? if so, then yes it would be doing exactly as you describe16:55
WaltzingAlongibilic: means that something would be installed but a prereq does not exist for it16:55
msemtdWaltzingAlong: yup - it's using 0% cpu so I guess the front-end death hung its IO16:56
bsanderibilic: it means that some dependencies for the install can't be met. You'll risk "breaking" your system if you continue to perform the installation16:56
msemtdWaltzingAlong: shall kill the python!16:56
bsanderthat's worst case, but still.. you'll at least break one or more apps16:56
WaltzingAlongibilic: breaking may be a bit of a stretch - depending on the package - more or less that the package will be installed but it or others may not work as expected16:57
waylandbillibilic: as WaltzingAlong said..  and most likely an unsupported repository is causing it.16:57

Dr_willisibilic,  that may ask a lot of questions.. but shouldent hurt anything.16:59
Dr_willisUnles of course you answer wrong. :)16:59
WaltzingAlongibilic: but still will not take care of the 'broken' you see in adept16:59
ibilici've done it yesterday when Adept crashed16:59

ibilichow do I at least diagnose the problem?17:00
Dr_williswhats broken?17:00

Dr_willisSounds like the installer may of gotten confused. what partition is it not being able to mount?17:11
bazhangerror number ubuntu?17:11
unpersonI suspect this problem may be related to the problem with the X Composite Extension, as mentioned here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mathematica#head-f257f6630497b04601075cc9a92b88a26e60e21b17:12

unpersonI'm actually running mathematica on a remote machine in this case, though, and forwarding if over ssh.17:12
ubuntu_so what should i actually do?17:13

Voyage_unperson i want it to be keep runing in sys tray.17:14

ubuntu_so theres no way of fixing it in the command box17:14
ubuntu_i would just have to reinstall linux again?17:14
Voyage_bazhang - check this. its a bug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firestarter/+bug/17424917:14
Voyage_bazhang yes17:15
unpersonWell, if no one has any idea about that specific error, can anyone tell me the correct way to turn off the composite extention?17:15
msemtdok, the !aptfix info hasn't fixed things - I have thousands of packages held back17:15
WaltzingAlongmsemtd: after aptfix, sudo aptitude -f install && sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade in konsole17:16

ubuntu_it says annot mount selected partition17:16
snarksterubuntu have you tried to repair the partition?17:16
ubuntu_but i see windows and linux on the slection menu to run which operating system17:16
unpersonVoyage_: Well, if you just want something to restart if it crashes, you could just have a cron job that checks periodically to see if it's running and, if not, restarts it.17:17
WaltzingAlongubuntu_: so what changed that you now see this?17:17
snarksterubuntu fsck -y /dev<partitons name>17:17
ubuntu_were do i type that17:17
ubuntu_command box?17:17
Voyage_unperson yes. how to do it17:17
unpersonVoyage_: Actually, assuming the process actually exits, you could presumably start it with a script that basically restarts the process any time it exits (i.e. in a never-ending loop).17:17
snarksterubuntu there are different words for different things, in linux we have konsole, or terminals not command box17:18
Voyage_unperson yes. how to do it?17:18

msemtdWaltzingAlong: uuh! fingers crossed some grief with lvm2 but I don't use it AFAIK17:18
ubuntu_okay so how do i know what partition name do i have?17:18
snarksterubuntu_:  if you can get to a konsole or command line interface then yes. being that the partition isnt mounted youll have no issues17:19
unpersonVoyage_: Well, the shell script is probably the more elegent option.17:19
ubuntu_can u tell me what to type cause its my first time17:19
crush[A] so firestrater IS NOT an acceptable replacement for IPtables ?17:19
=== apol|work is now known as apol
snarksterubuntu_: to find the right partition use fdisk -l that will list all your partitions17:19
unpersonVoyage_: My shell scripting is a little rusty.  Give me a minute.17:19
ubuntu_okay17:19
ubuntu_i see a list17:19
unperson(Or someone else is welcome to give it a shot)17:19
ubuntu_now?17:19
bazhangcrush[A]: just a way to access iptables, not a replacement17:19
Voyage_k17:20
bazhangunperson: this is for firestarter; Voyage_ has it confused with norton/symantec/pc-cillin etc17:20
snarksterubuntu_:  since Im assumin you are dual booting with windblows choose the ext3 partiton which should be somehting like sda<#> which partitons is ext317:20
ubuntu_Usage: fdisk [-l] [-b SSZ] [-u] device17:21
ubuntu_E.g.: fdisk /dev/hda  (for the first IDE disk)17:21
ubuntu_  or: fdisk /dev/sdc  (for the third SCSI disk)17:21

ubuntu_  or: fdisk /dev/rd/c0d0  or: fdisk /dev/ida/c0d0  (for RAID devices)17:21
Voyage_bazhang its a bug....................17:21
ubuntu_thats what i see17:21
ubuntu_when i type f disk17:21
Voyage_bazhang and even its not. it should stay in systray. even if iptables is running.17:21
snarksterubuntu_ you should type fdisk -l thats an L not a 117:22
snarksterubuntu_:  in kubuntus case the command will be sudo fdisk-l17:22
bazhangperhaps Voyage_, but makes no difference what so ever17:22
snarkstercopy that and paste it in the command line interface17:23
snarksteruse shift insert to paste in the CLI17:23

unpersonVoyage_: Ok, I don't know what your original issue was.  I also don't know how to make an app show up in the dock, but it may be able to be accomplished via a command-line argument.  But if you want to start a process and ensure that it restarts any time it exits, you can use the following, exceedingly simple script:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48238/17:30
unpersonVoyage_: And now I actually have to run.17:30
unpersonVoyage_: If you do use that script, then the only way to actually quit the app will be to kill the script.17:30
ubuntu_snarkster: it says17:30
ubuntu_ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck -y/dev/hda617:30

ubuntu_reinstall linux?17:56
ubuntu_and how do i format the drives to make sure nothing happens (erorr)17:56
ubuntu_left click un parition?17:56
Dr_willisThe installer should ask. or use the gparted tool to just delete the existing linux partitions, leaving part of the drive 'unallocated' the installer will ask to use that part of the drive17:57
Dr_willisits proberly possible to trouble shoot your problem. But theres so many things that could be incorrect it may take a lot of time.17:58
ubuntu_okay ll just reinstall17:58

alex__using apt-get is best, i think?18:58
ziggy_synaptic is easier18:58
dundukasalex__:  nope, using winehq.org18:58
ziggy_or adept18:59
ziggy_whichever18:59

dundukasapt-get rulz18:59
ziggy_it pretty straightforward, uglier than synaptic though18:59
ziggy_apt-get is pretty nice19:00
ziggy_i use urpmi and its alot slower and the documentaions worse, but it seems to have more current repositories19:00
geniialex__: dundukas is right, the current version 0.9.50 is at winehq website for debian/ubuntu they have a deb package there which you can use dpkg on, or follow the instructions given to add winehq to your repositories19:00
Dr_willislearn  the apt-get tools  - it will save your backside at sme time. :)19:00
ziggy_you might try getdeb.com too19:01

smcintyreskyfalcon866: Ah ;) there are many answers but there are things that Ubuntu lags behind Kubuntu as well20:33
smcintyreskyfalcon866: It's a matter of perception and marketing20:33
angelwho likes linux20:33
skyfalcon866well is compiz a gnome thing20:33
smcintyreskyfalcon866: But as it's offtopic #kubuntu-offtopic or if you want to lend a helping hand #kubuntu-devel20:33
NDPTAL85Whenever I go to udpate my Kubuntu using the  Adept Updater i get this error: "There was an error committing changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages." How do I fix this?20:33
smcintyreskyfalcon866: No it's a window manager thing it happened to start off with a gnome centric window manager20:34
Law506it is gnome, but it spose to work with kde as well20:34
lovreit works with kde20:34
smcintyrebut really it shouldn't matter and by the end it probably won't20:34
lovrecauses some minor problems tho..20:34
lovresmcintyre: there are no lines beginning with EE tbh...?20:34

skyfalcon866i cant stand gnome. Compiz was disabling my kde settings20:34

ubotuangel: 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.20:50

ziggy_were they installed as .deb's?20:50
frojndcan someine guide how can I check what crap do I allready have installed and needs to be removed and what do I need to install so .avi movies will work?20:50
lovreziggy_: no20:51
lovreziggy_: well, some20:51
ziggy_you made the files yourself?20:51
lovreziggy_: no, downloaded. I think it was a .run file or something like that20:51
ziggy_the debs should be easy to removes, for the hand installed stuff youll have to remember where you installed the files20:51
ziggy_.run?20:51
lovreziggy_: i know where i installed it. So do i just delete the folder or what?20:52
lovreziggy_: and how do i remove deb files20:52
ziggy_first make sure you cant use adept or synaptic or whatever your package manager is to remove it20:52
ziggy_if they cant see it, then basically yes20:52
lovrei see20:52
lovreziggy_: thanx20:52
ziggy_you might leave some orphans behind though if you dont get everything...which normally shouldnt be a problem20:53
ziggy_theres way to get rid of orphans laqter20:53
lovreziggy_: what is the difference between "Request removal" and "Request Purge" in Adept?20:54
jpatricklovre: purge deletes config20:54

polywafflehey guys, i wanted to just throw this in here20:57
polywafflei found that the latest kubuntu install was almost rubbish (7.10)20:57
polywaffleso what i did20:57
polywafflewas installed ubuntu command line system20:57
polywaffleand then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop20:57
polywafflethis was a nice install with no bugs that i can see20:57
lovreeh, when is KDE 4.0 coming out?20:58
polywaffleDecember some time20:58
dream_coderis it worth upgrading to kde 4?20:58

martijn81i have installed mdadm for my raid disks, but not kubuntu does not start proper anymore. I see no kwin/kicker and a popup in the left corner with "Could not start kstartupconfig. Check your installation." What can i do?20:58
ziggy_poly, im not sure what the difference would be between that and KDE, maybe you hand picked some extra packages or something......i switched to mandriva20:58
Kingzarwhere do i put my theme in?20:58
lovreany1 has problems with icons floating around desktop in tiny windows insted docking in kicker?20:58
polywafflewell the kubuntu iso disk is basically rubbish ziggy_20:58
polywafflei had errors in the package manager as well as in kopete20:59
ziggy_i played with the kde4 rc1 opensuse livecd, i was very underwhelmed....judging on that preview id wait until 4.1 to seriously play with it20:59
polywaffleso i did a clean install to just a command line system (i didnt want GNOME)20:59
polywaffleand then installed the kde-desktop20:59
polywafflethey say the projects are the same, but this opinion, i doubt20:59
angelwhat has been happening20:59
ziggy_imo, if youre a kde fan, then ubuntus not your best option20:59
polywafflei believe ubuntu is better maintained.20:59
ziggy_kubuntu is ubuntus ugly stepchild21:00
polywaffleu can install the ubuntu command line system21:00
polywaffleand then work from there21:00
martijn81Kingzar: you can import the theme from system settings> colorws21:00
martijn81*colors21:00
ziggy_yeah, but whats the point, why not just go for a distro thats built with kde in mind?21:00
polywafflesee i built my own gentoo system once, and sometimes i find it is best to start from scratch ziggy_21:00
jpatrickpolywaffle: kubuntu = ubuntu-base + kde21:00
wastedhey; i tried to install the kde4 via the link in the topic, and now kubuntu doesn't start at all. i tried recovery mode, and startx.. but it just errors, and returns to a prompt. any ideas on how to just restore kde3? I already removed all the kde4 packages.21:01
polywafflejpatrick i am aware of this but it seems to not only myself but my friends that there is some disparity between the ubuntu project and the kubuntu one21:01
ziggy_poly, the only thing is, i dont always have time to build my own packages, and the repositories for gentoo dont seem to be that great in terms of variety21:02
polywafflewasted try purging kde4 and kde3.5.7 and installing again.21:02
ziggy_cousre i was using sabayon so im not too sure about vanilla gentoo21:02
polywaffleziggy_ kubuntu is superior to gentoo in most respects.21:02
angelreally??not21:02
polywafflesabayon breaks on my system too ziggy_21:02
Kingzarhmm i uninstalled the theme (domingo) and there is a install file21:02

Kingzarcan i not import it in emerald?21:38
ziggy_you can try,21:38
ziggy_i dont know how emerald will deal with themes desidgned for kwin though21:38

bsanderhmm ok23:05
bsanderthen its probably true :)23:05
bsandercould be some hidden folder (trash?) that's wasting your space23:05
phoenixzbsander, sure.. but why do I have 2 dirs that total just over 31GB?23:05
bsandertry filelight on the partition root, see what it says23:06
phoenixzbsander, I will, thanks!23:06
phoenixzbsander, tried du -sh on the dirs, and there was a permission denied.. there is the problem.. now it accounts for the other 82GB (yikes)23:08
bsandersounds like a porn collection to me ;)23:09

helloyohey guys, is it a hassle getting compiz-fusion running in kubuntu?23:23
sfearssometimes23:23
helloyosfears: what's the issue?23:23
sfearsnot a hassel getting it running.. sometimes a hassel getting it running correctally23:23
sfearsif it was that easy it wouldn't be an issue.. install & see what happens23:23
helloyosfears: ah ok, i've noticed its part of gnome, but not kde, and i haven't installed it in 7.10, anything i need to know?23:24
sfearsdon't install all the plugins at one time23:24
sfearsinstall the base package... make sure that works.. then add all the extra effects23:25
helloyosfears: ah ok, and the base package is which? is compiz/compiz-fusion used interchangeably in the repos, or are some old?23:25
sfearscompiz-fusion i think23:25
sfearsit will need a couple extra dependencies.. just not all the additional effects23:26
helloyosfears: thanks. i'm not seeing compiz-fusion in the repos23:26
sfearstry just compiz.. it will find the correct ones23:27
sfearsare you using synaptic or apt-get23:27
helloyosynaptic23:27
helloyosfears: its installing now, will xgl start by itself? (sorry, i haven't done this in a while, and the howtos have me all muddled)23:28
sfearsif everything works properly it should just turn on23:29
helloyothanks, i'll give it a shot23:29
sfearsyou might also have to install compiz effect manager.. or something like that, i forget exactally what it's called23:30
sfearsit will put a copiz settings button in your appearance control panel23:31

Evil_Can I write to the NTFS partition from a livecd?23:34
* genii sips a cappucino23:35
martijn81Evil_ yes, you need to use the lastest live-cd and you need to manually create/mount the mount folder/partition23:36
Evil_I have gusty I think23:37
Evil_gutsy somethign like that23:37
sfearsdo you know how to mount a drive Evil_23:37
Evil_no sir23:37
martijn81Evil_: splendid, that should do the trick23:37
Evil_How do I mount the NTFS partition? lol23:40
sfearsfirst you need to make a folder to mount the drive to.. you can use your desktop as a folder if you wish.. then you need to find out what the location of you ntfs file system is using the command "sudo fdisk -l" at a command prompt.. in there will list your ntfs partition with a location like /dev/hda2.. once you know that use the command "sudo mount /dev/hda2 /home/username/desktop"23:40
Evil_ok, thanks :)23:41
sfearswelcome23:41
Evil_omg, that's crazy lol, thanks a lot! :)23:42
sfearsi'm guessing that means it worked?23:43
