[00:26] it came with Kubuntu [00:26] cheguevara_: [00:26] hamadooo: in the terminal type [00:26] qmake-qt4; make [00:26] try that instead [00:26] can i download it in ubuntu [00:26] hamadooo: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [00:26] well you might find in in adept manager [00:26] takteen i don't want kubuntu i like ubuntu [00:26] ok [00:26] ok andreas thanx [00:27] thanx all of u for help [00:27] what do i need to install to see FLV videos? like youtube? [00:27] hamadooo: You can install kubuntu as tekteen suggested or you can download it from here: http://www.kubuntu.com/download.php [00:27] i will leave now before they kick me out [00:27] cheguevara@cheguevara-laptop:~/del/qt4-x11-4.3.3/demos$ qmake-qt4 -project [00:27] Failure to open file: /home/cheguevara/del/qt4-x11-4.3.3/demos//demos.pro [00:27] ok thanx [00:27] tehm0nk: hey... hows the monitors going? [00:27] bye [00:27] does anybody know of any good programs for laptop touchpad sensitivity controls?? [00:27] they're okay [00:27] tehm0nk: flash [00:27] HI all, my firefox does not want to load flash 9 although it is installed [00:27] kinda weird tho [00:27] tekteen: do you know the package name? [00:27] jack12: ksynaptics [00:27] cheguevara_: OK, forget the -project switch for the minute and just do qmake-qt4 [00:28] tehm0nk: but they are both finally workning? [00:28] tehm0nk: 64 bit or 32? [00:28] 32 [00:28] steveire, i know that won't work 'cause there's no Makefile :P [00:28] yeah both are working but it's weird [00:28] tehm0nk: flashplugin-nonfree [00:28] nosrednaekim: does that work for hp laptops or anything? [00:28] cheguevara_: Try it [00:28] !info flashplugin-nonfree [00:28] flashplugin-nonfree: Adobe Flash Player plugin installer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu12 (gutsy), package size 17 kB, installed size 156 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 lpia) [00:28] cheguevara_: is it cmake? [00:28] nosrednaekim: it does not work [00:28] nosrednaekim: it gives an error [00:29] tekteen: ah... thats right.. I forgot. [00:29] steveire, Failure to open file: /home/cheguevara/del/qt4-x11-4.3.3/demos/Makefile [00:29] I will give u a link === stacey is now known as Xbehave [00:29] nosrednaekim, nah its uk it doesn't use cmake [00:29] on a toshiba laptop i only get sound though my headphones [00:29] tehm0nk: never mind me.. are you using konqueror or firefox? [00:30] http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz [00:30] cheguevara_: does it have a README or INSTALL file? [00:30] nosrednaekim : I have that (even a higher) version installed : 9.0.115.0ubuntu2 and the libs. It also seems firefox is loading them (lsof shows lib) but when I enter a site with flash 9 I get the request to download the flash 9 [00:30] cheguevara_: I'm having some network issues. I'll be back in a minute. have a look at ownership and permissions on those files. [00:30] firefoc [00:30] ah acutally you are right [00:30] wimpies: try it in konqueror. [00:30] i fetched the files as root [00:30] duuuh [00:30] nosrednaekim : same problem [00:30] It seems they've changed the flash plugin [00:30] cheguevara_: :) [00:31] new update :-D [00:31] tehm0nk: then visit any site that has flash and it should prompt you to install the plugin. [00:31] flashplugin-nonfree is broken, along with konqueror auto install [00:31] nosrednaekim: Its broken there too. [00:31] Pete_^: Adobe changed it? [00:31] yep [00:31] ok got it [00:31] oh... wow. [00:31] Pete_^ : indeed I downloaded the tar.gz version extracted the lib, copied all to no avail [00:32] flashplugin-nonfree is not broken for me in Gutsy [00:32] I run feisty [00:32] nosrednaekim: I believe so [00:32] They need to update it [00:32] I will find a bug on it [00:32] ardchoille: not sure what you are doing ;) [00:33] Pete_^: Oh, you mean for new installs? [00:33] cheguevara_: sudo chown -R cheguevara_:cheguevara_ qt4-x11-4.3.3 so [00:33] tehm0nk: seems flash is kinda broken, you may not want to install right now... if you can wait a few days it should be fixed. [00:33] the md5sum of the file has changed, pretty simple. Unless the package has been updated really recently [00:33] Ah, ok [00:33] ardchoille: Yes [00:33] yeah steveire i know that :P [00:33] cheguevara_: what are you doing that for? its in the repositories.. [00:34] :-) cool. Is it working this time? [00:34] nosrednaekim: yeah I know, steveire wants to show me some bug though :P [00:34] nosrednaekim : I find it strange since the lib *is* there (I used the tar.gz file at adobe's) but even that does not work. So is the Adobe version broken ? [00:34] steveire, yeah got textedit started [00:34] whats the bug then [00:34] They've changed the version they are hosting recently [00:34] cheguevara_: oh [00:34] wimpies: that seems to be the case [00:35] nosrednaekim : and will that be fixed in a few days ? [00:35] nosrednaekim: never compiled qt or any qt project by hand before, so sound n00b lol [00:35] wimpies: hopefully [00:35] cheguevara_: select a word and ctrl+u to toggle underline a few times. The bug is that the first time it underlines the word without toggling the button, second time it toggles the button, and third time it toggles off normally. [00:36] cheguevara_: heh [00:36] unlikely that flash will be fixed soon [00:36] the patch is not ready yet and the size of it is not stable material [00:36] my boot screen isn't working anymore [00:37] billybobo: what about it is not working. [00:37] steveire, toggled for me from the first time [00:37] when i buut it used to read, "Kubuntu", and had a progress bar. Now its just black [00:37] \\when i *boot*... [00:37] billybobo: did you just swap videocards? [00:37] nope [00:37] intel card [00:38] or from onboard to PCI-X? [00:38] i've tried dpkg-reconfigure usplash and tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [00:38] cheguevara_: Hmmm... That's interesting. It must mean something's wrong with my box. Bad for me, but probably means kjots4 is ok. [00:38] nope same card [00:38] cheguevara_: Have a look at the qt tutorial and examples while you have it. Qt's powerful and easy. [00:38] billybobo: odd, the people who most often report that is those who either have two monitor outputs, or two video cards [00:39] nope. [00:39] for people wondering about flash : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/173890 [00:39] steveire, which qt version you got? [00:39] I believe its the same in Gusty too [00:39] steveire, qt might be easy C++ is not :P [00:39] * nosrednaekim <3 QT [00:39] any suggestions on how to fix it? [00:39] cheguevara_: 4.3.2 from kubuntu repos [00:39] mine is 4.3.3 [00:39] pyqt! :D [00:39] might be something there === gryc is now known as grycAFK [00:40] cheguevara_: Are you sure? Is that what it says in help > about QT? [00:40] nosrednaekim, phpqt, FTW :P [00:40] cheguevara_: Where did you get it from? A PPA? [00:40] is kubuntu a kind of Debian? [00:40] 4.3.2 from gutsy repos.. [00:40] !away > grycAFK [00:40] steveire, hardy :P [00:40] lol [00:40] cheguevara_: Ah right [00:41] andreas__: yes, it is based on debian [00:41] nosrednaekim: Any chance you have qt demos or kde4 installed? [00:41] i've also lost all of my screensavers in KDE!! :( [00:41] (And using gutsy :)) [00:41] so why do people stick to kubuntu/ubuntu instead of debian? [00:42] steveire: using KDE4, yes [00:42] billybobo: yeah, look at the bugs, I heard about that one before [00:42] andreas__: because its simpler and easier [00:42] nosrednaekim: Could you check out kjots from svn and confirm a bug for me? [00:43] so it just took the philosophy of debian and made it more approachable [00:43] right? === _Agrajag is now known as Agrajag` [00:43] ok but nothing on the usplash during startup or shutdown? [00:43] steveire: probably not... i'm on dial-up,and i'd have to get the -dev's as well [00:43] nosrednaekim: Ah right [00:43] cheers [00:43] billybobo: not that I kow of... you could try booting a different kernel [00:44] this computer is a gift, to be given tonight... and Kubuntu is falling apart on me :( [00:44] steveire: sorry... [00:44] there is no other kernel listed, even though it installed a new one this morning [00:44] steveire: is this a kde bug? [00:45] billybobo: ok, well, nothing seems to be seriously broken, a missing splash is really nothing to be worried about. [00:45] billybobo: u may want to reinstall [00:45] eh, but a black screen for 45 seconds isn't promising [00:45] but the screensavers..... hmm [00:45] nosrednaekim: It's from qt, but I don't know if it's something wrong with my box's config/qt4.3.2 bug/kubuntu packages... Trying to track it down [00:45] i've spent hours getting it to this state, not going to do that before tonight... aka in 30m [00:45] billybobo: click alt+F1 during boot [00:45] billybobo: take "splash" off the grub line and see text instead :D [00:45] hmmm [00:46] steveire: oh ok... don't want to look dumb when you report it as a bug? :D [00:46] how do i kill a program that isn't responding? [00:46] adept manager freaked out on me... [00:47] tehm0nk: "ctrl+esc" [00:47] tehm0nk: Ksysguard ctrl-etc [00:47] tehm0nk: use synaptic... its generally stabler [00:47] nosrednaekim: If it's fixed in4.3.3 I don't think it's worth reporting :) [00:47] Xkill is good too ;) [00:47] You have to take more care with that though. [00:47] steveire: well, it is, because kde4 depends on >=4.3.2 right now, so they will probably want to be aware of it [00:47] "Insufficient permissions to kill process #" === stacey is now known as Xbehave [00:48] tehm0nk: be careful, press ctrl-alt-esc and click on the locked window [00:48] tehm0nk: heh, run this on the command line then "sudo killall -9 adept_manager" [00:48] and then you will have to run a !adeptfix [00:48] !adeptfix [00:48] 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 » [00:50] ok all better [00:51] where does synaptic install to? [00:51] tehm0nk: what do you mean? [00:51] i can't find it in my menu [00:51] oh... system I think. [00:52] tehm0nk: or "kdesudo synaptic" on the command line' [00:53] are any of you gamers? [00:53] or better yet, play wow? [00:53] yeah [00:53] did you install wow in kubuntu? [00:53] not wow--wii [00:53] I just built a new gaming machine yesterday, but I don't play WoW. [00:54] bah, just wondered if i should install wow in vista or here [00:54] * nosrednaekim playes Bzflag... and thats about it [00:54] tehm0nk: its possible to do it within wine [00:54] and its been done many many times [00:55] and is it better to have an extended to 2nd screen setup with dual monitors or 2 X screens? [00:55] !WoW [00:55] Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php [00:55] very good under wine iirc tehm0nk [00:55] tehm0nk: Depends what you want to do [00:55] tehm0nk: extended is harder to set up usually [00:55] so is dual X screens [00:55] for some reason the second one is like... weird [00:55] like how? [00:55] the menubar is super basic [00:56] doesn't look like the other one [00:56] menubar for what. [00:56] I remember that [00:56] and my other one lost stuff [00:56] nosrednaekim: at the bottom of the screen [00:56] the taskbar i guess [00:56] I personally prefer twinview or xinerama [00:56] tehm0nk: oh.... kicker and two desktops... [00:56] if you maximize something does it go BOTH screens or just the one? [00:57] tehm0nk: yeah, i've never messed with dual monitors.. projector is as far as I've gotten. [00:57] (pete) [00:57] tehm0nk: Depends how you set it up [00:57] I like it to maximise to one screen [00:57] right same with me [00:57] but i dont know what to do to make it setup right... [00:57] !dualhead [00:57] Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama [00:57] i'd Like to be able to drag things to the other screen [00:58] Twinview is good if you have one nvidia card outputting to two screens, xinerama is good if you have a more complicated setup but 3d acceleration across multiple screens isn't such of an issue [00:58] so its really running two whole xservers? [00:58] nosrednaekim: Duh been there :-P [00:58] tehm0nk: figures ;) [00:58] well i have 2 videocards :-x [00:58] I don't know if theres an ATI driver based solution [00:58] 1 monitor on each [00:59] Pete_^: you good witht he xorg.conf file? [00:59] tehm0nk: I wouldn't say good, but if needed I can have a look I suppose [00:59] i could pastebin mine and you tell me what to change to make it the way i'd like? [01:00] tehm0nk: I'll give it a shot [01:00] ok cool [01:00] lemme get the current one and pastebin... [01:00] tehm0nk: have you tried messing in the monitor and display section of systemsettings? === bsandert is now known as bsander [01:00] can i do something like "sudo kate blabblah" to open it [01:01] if you are reading kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf will do fine [01:01] nosrednaekim: that for my setup is what cause SO many problems [01:01] tehm0nk: ah... [01:01] i use "kdesudo nvidia-settings" [01:01] to write use kdesudo [01:01] !pastebin [01:01] 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) [01:02] Argh if i click a link... === downix_ is now known as Downix_SPARC [01:02] it just sits there and does nothing. === grycAFK is now known as gryc [01:02] tehm0nk: what just sits there. [01:02] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48960/ [01:03] it opens a window that says "loading progress" [01:03] tehm0nk: oh..... [01:03] So you have two 8600 gt's? [01:03] yup [01:03] and 2 of the same LCD monitors [01:04] that makes things easier I would think [01:04] It helps I suppose, but it doesn't really matter [01:05] Just a question, are these cards in a SLi configuration? [01:05] the connector is connected but no it's not enabled [01:05] you can do SLI and dualhead at the same time? [01:05] that is enabled through drivers anyways [01:05] I don't think so? [01:05] nosrednaekim: No. [01:06] tehm0nk: I'd remve the cable.... [01:06] i didn't know that till i had installed it... [01:06] sadly you can't use twinview (so thats proper acceleration down the drain..) [01:06] nosrednaekim: dont need to, Drivers enable it [01:06] pete what do you mean? [01:06] if i use xinerama can i still? [01:06] twinview works with the binary nvidia driver, and one card [01:06] right [01:07] You can with xinerama, but performance is degraded [01:07] but i mean compiz works on the other monitor too [01:07] but the biggest thing is i'd like to be able to Drag things to the other monitor [01:08] You will be able to with xinerama [01:08] but if i lose all kinds of performance... i'll just open the other stuff over there lol [01:10] pete do you use that kdesudo nvidia-settings method? [01:11] tehm0nk: I have a pretty complicated setup, two graphics cards, three monitors, so no. [01:11] Try this config: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48963/ [01:11] make sure to have a copy of the working one [01:11] sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.working [01:11] in a terminal [01:11] right i have a copy already [01:12] question [01:12] is that extra monitor in there neccessary? [01:12] "Generic Monitor" [01:12] and "Default Screen" [01:13] I think you could remove the monitor identifed by "Generic Monitor", although I think you may be missing a section Screen0 [01:14] Infact I'm talking rubbish [01:14] Its there, I just didn't see it for some reason [01:14] ok lemme restart X [01:14] remember how to fix it if X doesn't start [01:14] too late.. [01:15] anyone familiar with adding new options to a configure script? [01:16] Pete_^: uhh oh.... taking a while... [01:17] <_< [01:17] I was thinking the same [01:17] I should have explained how to copy it BACK too [01:17] hopefully he has another machine at his disposal [01:17] mmhm === word|sleep is now known as word [01:18] Pete_^: I think he does from my previous experience w/him [01:18] Thats something atleast [01:19] tehm0nk: I take it that didn't work. [01:20] it worked [01:20] but [01:20] i dont know what you changed? lol [01:20] and i have this weird thing happening... [01:20] http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v191/iRm0nk/?action=view¤t=whatthe.jpg [01:20] there is this weird adept updater thing popping up sorta when i login [01:21] are your windows meant to have that funky boarder? [01:21] that icon is Normally on the taskbar on the bottom right... [01:21] shadow kinda thing. [01:21] tehm0nk: you using compiz? [01:21] * nosrednaekim didn't look at the SS [01:21] Sure looks like it to me [01:21] i dont know if it's supposed to be Blue like that completely [01:21] yes Compiz [01:22] I didn't even know Compiz was working with Xinerama yet, last I checked it totally died [01:22] hmm [01:22] It did work a long long time ago [01:22] right now xinerama is enabled [01:22] but... [01:22] i've got two x screens still... [01:22] and you are unable to move stuff between them? [01:23] nope lol [01:23] Oh but i'm still lost on that adept notifier, and why it's there... [01:23] not on the bar... [01:24] I think Compiz is to blame [01:24] ATI or nVidia? [01:24] yeah... thats certain;y a compoz problem [01:24] !compiz [01:24] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion [01:24] Nvidia [01:24] try restarting the kicker [01:24] to fix those icons [01:24] Do you have a Wacom tablet or am I free to remove them? [01:25] it looks like the same error I got with an older ATI driver [01:25] "dcop kicker kicker restart" for reference [01:25] was a mix-up between the driver and DRI turned out [01:25] also I've noticed if you start another app that uses the system tray, when its icon pops up, the others will go in place [01:25] remove them [01:25] like kwalletmanager or something [01:25] (I do have a Wacom tablet, so they came in handy infact ;) ) [01:25] i just turned Off Compiz :( [01:26] how do i make it Not startup with login tho? [01:27] compiz? remove it from the ~/.kde/Autostart/ directory [01:28] sub[t]rnl: where is that? [01:28] lol [01:28] tehm0nk: onless you messed with your .xsession [01:28] Another revision [01:28] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48965/ [01:28] tehm0nk: how did you get it to autostart? [01:28] tehm0nk➜ your home dir [01:28] cd ~/.kde/Autostart/ [01:29] that is if you created a startup script in there [01:29] if your session is just reloading it, go to system settings -> advanced -> session manager and turn it off [01:30] whats the command to delete something? [01:30] rm [01:30] rm [01:30] has anyone here used filezilla in kubuntu? [01:30] ok got that gone lemme paste that pastebin lol [01:31] remember, if you get stuck hit ctrl-alt-f1, login, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.working /etc/X11/xorg.conf [01:31] gn8 [01:31] I just got worried last time ;) [01:33] brb [01:34] same thing [01:34] but it fixed that stupid adept notifier thing [01:34] maybe cause compiz is gone but still [01:34] My cpu seems to sit around 30-35°C with just a case fan, with a fan on the cooler it drops to around 20°C, I can't decide if its worth it. It would let me run the case fan a bit slower.. [01:34] Yes, it will be because compiz is gone [01:35] which i think that problem is fixable [01:35] but still can't drag things across screen [01:35] It should be [01:35] Pete_^: what CPU us that? [01:35] via? [01:35] Pete_^: the cooler the better:) [01:35] two servers still [01:36] Pete_^: yeah what cpu is that, its extremely cool [01:36] can you pastebin your Xorg.0.log please, its un /var/log/. [01:36] Intel Q6600. [01:36] ;) [01:36] Pete_^: underclocked? [01:36] Nope [01:36] Just a massive cooler [01:36] wow! [01:36] Pete_^: is that new or old? [01:37] sigma: very new [01:37] New(ish), 2.4ghz quad core [01:37] New to me, yesterday [01:37] in terminal i typed in mount /media/sda1 /dev/sda/ and i get specify filesystem type how do i do this properly? [01:37] lovedeatm: -t filesystem [01:37] Pete_^: how on earth did u manage that temperature! [01:37] !pastebin [01:37] 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) [01:37] lovedeatm: #1... you have the two options witched [01:37] intels are known for overheating [01:37] lovedeatm: #2, you have to say "/dev/sda2" [01:37] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48966/ [01:38] sigma: with one of these : thermaltake ifx-14 === eevench is now known as Eroick [01:38] sigma: I think you are thinking of pentium fours [01:38] pete_^, could you show me how to type it peroperly [01:38] yeah but whats the diff with the new ones? [01:38] sigma: big difference. [01:38] lovedeatm: mount -t xxxx /dev/sda1 /mount/point [01:39] what format is the disk you are trying to mount? Is it windows? [01:39] time for me to go to another intel conference, seems alot has changed [01:39] pete_^, xxx being the file type [01:39] Huge difference with core 2 [01:39] ntfs... [01:39] Pete_^: probably no need for the -t stuff, he had the options in the wrong order, and wasn't pointing to an actual partition [01:39] well, more core [01:39] Pete_^: but do the quad cores work properly in kubuntu? [01:40] sigma: course! [01:40] mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mount/point to create the mountpoint do sudo mkdir /mount/point -p (Where the mount point is where you wish to create it!) [01:40] As said, you might not need -t ntfs [01:40] Yes, it seems to be working fine [01:41] I'd rather have gone for one of the Phenoms, but with the TLB bug I had to pass sadly [01:41] (As I was not waiting any longer for a new system) [01:41] 4 proc's in one, thats just too tempting! a bit out of my price range though, suppose my amd64 will have to do for now [01:41] Pete_^: just need a patched kernel ;) [01:41] Pete_^: Phenoms? [01:41] sigma: quad-core AMDs [01:42] brb again... [01:42] sigma: The new AMD processors, not on performance par with the latest intels, but the 9600 is with the q6600, and its a true quad core [01:42] is there a command for terminal to restart X? [01:42] tehm0nk: /etc/init.d/kdm restart [01:42] nosrednaekim: yea i heard about them, apparently amd changed the socket completely [01:42] although that won't work if the terminal is inside X [01:42] nosrednaekim: i saw one online for 4000 what a rip! i could build my own for cheaper [01:42] sigma: nope, still AM2 [01:43] AM2+ processors will work in AM2 motherboards, just not to their full extent [01:43] Jay-Oh-En: yeah... high end gaming is best home-built [01:43] nosrednaekim: yea that one, i thought they were still on 939 [01:43] nosrednaekim: thats what i do :[ but not anymore since i run linux [01:43] I just made a big mistake with the motherboard [01:44] sigma: thats the chipset [01:44] but amd always has been winning the heat war and especially where i live its important to have a cool cpu [01:44] Haha, look at the latest FX CPU;s [01:44] Pete_^: What did u do? [01:44] CPU's [01:45] sigma: I got a P35 chipset'd board, I hadn't realised you needed a nforce chipset board to do SLi.. [01:45] OK... got xinerama working [01:45] and one big desktop [01:45] How do I get my widescreen working and the res higher in KDE? I think taht the vesa driver isnt cutting it. my card is an ATI Radion Xpress 200 [01:45] but theyre backwards! lol [01:45] tehm0nk: Great! What did you change? [01:45] haha... FX's :D [01:45] Eroick: your on a compaq? [01:45] Jay-Oh-En: acer. [01:45] tehm0nk: Change the line like "Screen0" leftOf "Screen1" [01:45] Pete_^: supposedly nuveau will allow you to do SLI on any chipset [01:45] Eroick: oh ok [01:46] to either be the other way round, or change leftOf to rightOf [01:46] Jay-Oh-En: is compaq even around anymore? [01:46] yeah [01:46] nosrednaekim: I'll have to take a look [01:46] Eroick: what model? [01:46] Eroick: I have an acer. [01:46] nosrednaekim: Of acer? Aspire something [01:46] Pete_^: well, it can't do it yet. but its planned. [01:47] brb again lol [01:47] Eroick: ok, well, you will probably need the fglrx driver, get it with the restricted-manager tool [01:47] I have to use the nvidia beta driver anyway, the G92's aren't supported under the latest stable yet [01:47] nosrednaekim: Ah, ok.

How about transparency.. Is it supposed to only show the background through the window? [04:12] its supposed to make the window transparent [04:12] allowing anything behind it to show through [04:13] That's what I thought.. It just shows the background. Windows are hidden. [04:13] are the windows behind it or are they minimized? [04:14] They're straight behind it.

[04:33] sub[t]rnl: Ok, looking through dmidecode now [04:33] so maybe you want /dev/sdb1 /mnt/mountpoint ntfs rw 0 0 [04:33] you don't want to mount to /mnt either... [04:33] you need to create a mount point [04:34] you might also want user mount. /dev/sdb1 /mnt/mountpoint ntfs user,rw 0 0 [04:34] also shows this /dev/sdb /mnt/sdb1 ntfs rw 0 0 [04:34] thats not going to work either. delete them. [04:34] on mtab [04:34] but I can connect to it as su [04:34] delete them from mtab and do it properly in fstab as per the guides and what i said [04:34] I am copying movies now [04:35] thats because you need the user option, cloneyin to do user mounts.. also the mountpoint needs perms suffice for the user [04:35] sub[t]rnl: Would the motherboard be "Base Board Information"?

[05:01] I prefer the kcontrol method I knew it was there i couldnt remember its name coz its 5am [05:02] hello! Is there any way to install ubuntu on a machine that has no CD player, no floppy drive, cannot boot from USB, has no network adapter but already has windows on it? [05:02] It sound a bit hard to me, but I was wondering anyway [05:02] is there a kde ogg theora converter? [05:03] I was thinking of not using the ntloader but rather something like grub4dos [05:03] hdevalence, r u here? [05:05] alcor: yeah, but I have to go to bed in about 5 minutes.

[05:17] sudo mount -a [05:18] I just modified my fstab and need to test it without a reboot [05:18] is that it? [05:18] yup [05:19] thanks [05:19] I still do not have access rights to which I mounted [05:20] shoud I include uams ot fstab? [05:20] umask [05:20] make sure you have rights to the mount points [05:21] you want to user mount [05:21] so its just mount /mnt/point [05:21] if you get an error, show me [05:21] i used /home/cloneyin as my mount point [05:21] is that bad? [05:21] as i said make sure you have ownership/rights on the mount point [05:21] no its not bad [05:22] so when you do mount /home/cloneyin [05:22] what is the result [05:22] actially /home/cloneyin/Desktop [05:22] and also show me the fstab entry for that mount point [05:22] Isee theusb icon [05:22] onthe desktop [05:22] do not mount to your desktop! [05:22] but it is licked [05:22] locked [05:22] ok [05:22] sorry [05:22] let me try again [05:23] so with desktop is bad [05:23] the icon on your desktop is usually a shortcut.. [05:23] ok, let me do it again [05:23] yes you create a mount point and change its perms as i advised earlier [05:23] damn I am actually learnign fstab now [05:23] thansk to you flaccid [05:23] thanks [05:23] its important, because linux/hal is still not reliable and user mounts are only done by hal in that respect by default [05:24] fstab and how things mount - is a top 10 to learn item :) [05:24] I still need to make that list.. someday [05:25] Grub, Mounting items, lets see what else.. how to manully check filesystems.. [05:25] yeah and in my opinion there should be frontends to these in the distro [05:25] there still isn't [05:25] i see [05:26] nothing that is smoothly integrated/in base [05:26] actually i thought there was one.. but i always edit my fstab with vi. So its no matter to me. [05:26] you are also right flaccid [05:26] I clicked on that usb icon, it just shows my desktop with konqueror [05:27] it became a shortcut after I unmonted it [05:27] hal attempts most of it but is not consistant i guess [05:27] cloneyin: you might wanna do what i suggested [05:27] that usually helps [05:27] fstab is the front end! [05:28] fstab is the configuration file. a frontend abstracts the user from it [05:28] configuration files = linux [05:28] nah [05:28] unix [05:28] how do i completly disable the system buser [05:28] :> [05:28] stacey: what is the system buser?

[05:32] no compiz uses it whenever you do something wrong [05:32] if so goto settings | bell and choose your desired option [05:32] oh really [05:32] um. in that case perhaps you can mute it in kmix or alsamixer. not sure why its doing that. is it pc speaker or the soundcard? [05:33] you can change sound/schemes in kcontrol if its the scheme doing it with a wav [05:33] its the internal speaker not anythng alsa uses [05:35] nvm kde had changed a setting but left a checkbox unticked [05:37] ok cool [05:38] xset b 0 0 0 - will also kill off a lot of beeps in xterm, and other apps. [05:39] there may be some other xset command that does the same thing. :) i jsut rember 0 0 0 because its 3 #'s that set the freq/duration/Pitch or somthing.. of the bell. :) [05:39] thx thats what i was looking for [05:41] i've just upgraded to kubuntu 7.10 and really like what i see...however, i'm trying to change the hostname of my box and running into some trouble [05:42] i'm unable to change the hostname of the box without kde freezing up on me during initialization...i think it has to do with my Nvidia card settings [05:42] anybody had this problem? [05:51] flaccid, i did it with umask=0000 [05:51] as an option on fstab [05:51] thanks [05:52] flaccid, thanks [05:53] so when mounting a hd, you need to mount the partition or depends on mtab after you connect the hd on usb [05:55] and I can use konqueror to open it [05:55] damn this is awesome [05:56] what's next?

[06:49] this was a gnome desktop to start with then i apt-get install kdedesktop [06:49] Not if your other service menus work [06:49] !emerald [06:49] Sorry, I don't know anything about emerald - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [06:49] none of my customs ones do [06:49] ardchoille: i was refering to alt+shift+n for konsole [06:49] zenobius: Wait, you installed kdedesktop and not kubuntu-desktop?

[06:51] ardchoille: /home/zenobius/.kde/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/ [06:52] ardchoille: in there i have two files, ffmpeg-convert.desktop & 57086-encfs.desktop [06:52] zenobius: That's not the correct path, they should be in /home/zenobius/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus you've left out the "share" [06:52] i have 4gb of memory installed, does ati radeon X800 256M accumulating my memory? [06:53] ardchoille: well... this maybe easier than i thought [06:53] cloneyin: It should be using the memory on the vid card itself [06:53] damn about 1gb? [06:53] cloneyin: That's the point of drivers, to take the load off the CPU [06:53] is htop just new? [06:53] no [06:53] been round loooong time [06:53] i remember top is what I use [06:53] really [06:53] i've installed compiz and open office is causing "problems" :/ [06:53] yurp [06:54] i like htop better than top [06:54] has anyone had any experience with compiz/emerald? [06:54] i use screen then i run jnettop and htop and bmon [06:54] not I should use this [06:54] if i have 16-way, it will show 16 procs,right? [06:54] what is jnettop [06:54] i use screen becuase those others are run on remote server, i only wnat to ssh once [06:54] !compiz | romunov [06:54] romunov: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default.

[06:58] if your suing it on remote machines, aka via ssh...have a look at using screen...its like workspaces for the cli without having to login mulitple times [06:58] using* [06:59] Now thats cool.

[07:02] i did flash intallation manually through firefox laso [07:02] intelikey: you would not want to count on it [07:03] lufthanza: then got tplugins [07:03] problem is, in konqueror, nsplugin will crash and burn when it comes into contact with swf content [07:03] zenobius but it can make ntfs ? [07:03] lufthanza: and click the 'scan for plugins' button [07:03] amd architecture for HPC so far, the manufacturer implimentations are two so far [07:03] intelikey: proly, but i think you will want ntfs-3g package [07:03] either ladder design or cross design [07:03] * LimCore bitchalps kde for making annoying sounds [07:04] and bios is hard to map the nodes and the apic support [07:04] lufthanza: oh, sorry my ability ends here [07:04] zenobius: well, thanks anyway [07:04] so sometimes, when i run linpack, it only assign jobs to certain nodes [07:04] then customer complains [07:04] so .....

[07:31] not as nice on cpu though [07:32] The thing I like about gkrellm is I rarely see my desktop, too many windows open, and you can drag gkrellm around [07:32] yeah lightwieght impact is the highest priority [07:33] nothing like monitoring the weight of an ant whilst standing on the scales [07:33] speaking of. how to get thermal to work on a pentium coper mine ?

ActionParsnip [08:28] hey TheFallenOne [08:30] if i want to delete the files in a dir that is too full, what would be the "easy way" ? [08:30] heres one..... i just aquired one of those dell usb hub keyboards however my usb key is ignored when i plug it in. lsusb lists the device but fstab -l does not [08:30] hmm intelikey, you're talking above my pay grade ;p [08:30] intelikey, do you want to delete the entire folder? [08:31] rf the directory i think [08:31] rm -r dir/ will remove the directory and all the files in it. [08:31] but I that's a dangerous command [08:31] ActionParsnip no just the normal files not subdirs [08:31] sub[t]rnl not subdirs [08:31] intelikey, you can use sudo rm [08:31] maybee i need to restart [08:32] i pasted it [08:32] if it wasn't to full i'd just use rm /path/* [08:32] intelikey, it wil remove the files and leave the folder structure [08:32] so is dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/hda.....dangerous command that is [08:32] ActionParsnip no it's too full [08:32] okay hmmm [08:32] bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long [08:32] im going to try just rebooting and see if that changes my VM in any way, shape or form [08:32] intelikey, you could use sudo rm -rf ; mkdir [08:32] AzAel not if you intend to wipe the hard drive [08:33] lol [08:33] intelikey➜ rm -r removes subdirectories too [08:33] ok i'm still having the wifi issues. i've tried adding auto wlan0 to the interfaces and restarting but no go. [08:33] intelikey, remove, recursive and force. it will also remove the folder [08:33] ActionParsnip that would lose the subdirs and their content [08:33] intelikey, so recreate afterwards [08:33] makes no since why i can connect to the router with 80% siganl but can't get to the web [08:33] intelikey: the poor kid that wanted to wipe his usbkey and wiped his hdd [08:33] intelikey, you could always use konqueror [08:34] my buddy right next to me is on his laptop and accessing the net through wifi just fine (windows xp for him) [08:34] ActionParsnip not desirable. the content of the subdirs stays. [08:34] AzAel: ouch! [08:34] no firewalls or any security on router so i'm stumped [08:34] intelikey, so you want to keep the folders but not the files? [08:34] sda, sdb.....whatever LOL [08:34] ActionParsnip that's what i first specified [08:35] intelikey, just clarifying. rm -r * should be fine. you can always create a seperate folder and use touch to create some files [08:35] intelikey, then try the command [08:35] intelikey, ;) [08:36] anyways how can i mount a usb storage device if its not detected by fstab -l [08:36] but detected by lsusb [08:36] AzAel, what do you get from fdisk -l [08:37] ActionParsnip lol create empty files to replace 3g of data no thanks. [08:37] only output relating to internal sata and ide drives [08:37] intelikey, you misunderstand [08:37] intelikey, if you create a folder with subfolders and some files in all the folders (create using touch) === fignew` is now known as fignew [08:38] intelikey, you can run any commands you like to test [08:38] intelikey, once you are happy with what is happening you can execute it on the actual folder [08:38] "rm -r * should be fine" will remove data i don't want removed. nothing to misunderstand about that. [08:38] intelikey, think of it like a test [08:39] intelikey: usbkey automounts when plugged into any other port except for the ones on this KB [08:39] oops [08:39] intelikey, just a suggestion :) [08:39] that was directed at ActionParsnip [08:40] AzAel, pastebin your fdisk -l please [08:40] well the easy answer seems to be a loop for Q in /path/* ;do rm $Q ;done in that loop bash is not limited like the rm command to a shortened commandline and it will do what rm /path/* can't. [08:41] if anyone wants to take notes ^ [08:42] ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49000/ [08:42] nice number hehehe [08:44] two pata disks ?

[09:03] AzAel, how does the keyboard connect to the system? Is there a usb hub involved? [09:03] posingaspopular normally the error messages "when not viewed as criptic" are very helpful in trubbleshooting a problem. [09:04] a powered hub would be good. but i don't recall ever seeing one. [09:04] posingaspopular do a uname -r for me please [09:05] AzAel, do you have a powered usb hub? [09:05] ummm sure if you can give the exact command. im wayy in over my head here ;p [09:06] uname -r [09:06] to list the running kernel version [09:06] to make sure it matches 2.6.22-14 [09:07] this bizarre i tried a differnt usb storage device and it didnt work however on one occasion it picked it up and mounted it automagicly [09:07] well 2.6.22-14* to be exact [09:07] AzAel it would every time if the power lever was a little higher at the port your are plugging into [09:08] 2.6.17-12-generic [09:08] which doesn't match ;/ [09:08] posingaspopular there you go and that's where all your problem has been [09:08] you need the 2.6.17-12 headers [09:08] bah [09:09] and possably the source [09:09] posingaspopular, id sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade [09:09] ActionParsnip: intelikey: connections attempted, kb plugged into onboard usb, unpowered usb hub and alternate usb ports on mobo only had success once with an alternate storage device [09:09] upgrade? im already in gutsy [09:10] posingaspopular, it'll upgrade individual packages from the sources [09:10] upgrade for the newer kernel version, yes. and changing kernels will require a reboot too. [09:10] or install the kernel headers for that kernel and go [09:11] why when i log out and back in it wont load anything but a peach color screen [09:11] AzAel, unpowered usb hub will not give juice to your keyboard which it needs [09:11] cowlikk drop to a console and see what's hanging it up [09:12] :-D im not that smart intelikey [09:12] ActionParsnip: only tried it because i had forgotten id lost the powersupply [09:12] hmm how do i get the source and headers for 2.6.17-12 [09:12] this is like my first 5 hours on linux [09:12] having fun yet cowlikk?? [09:13] and it aint been a good 5 hours [09:13] lots of freakin thinking [09:13] AzAel, so got a different usb key to work or was it a hdd with external power? [09:13] and typing [09:13] my fingers are sore [09:13] cowlikk, indeed for now. soon it will work beautifully :) [09:13] ActionParsnip: cheap generic mp3 player [09:13] i know that is why i keep at it [09:14] AzAel, with batteries in ? [09:14] cowlikk: you will look back on it fondly one day [09:14] i used to think i was very good with computers.... well thats windows i guess [09:14] ActionParsnip: no batteries [09:14] cowlikk ok let me explain how to switch tty's in linux first of all the default tty for the xserver is tty7 now to switch ttys you press ctrl+alt+f# where the # is the tty number you want. normally 1 through 6 are login tty's you can login and run ps ax the last few lines of info will be the last processes to start up. one will be your login shell. but just above that should be the last thing that x st [09:14] cowlikk: that's a whole different ballgame. ;p [09:14] AzAel, well it will have some form of power source [09:14] yeah im learning that [09:15] only worked temporarily [09:15] so how do i figure out why it wont log back in after loging out === diego is now known as maria [09:15] i wish i knew how to install those header files/source :( [09:15] AzAel, id borrow or steal a powered usb hub and try that. it should work from your onboard though which is weird [09:15] posingaspopular, get the updates [09:15] cowlikk you find what is hanging it and ask in here probably. [09:15] i think i've run out of options [09:16] how do i find what is hanging it though [09:16] the usb key does work onboard it also works in the unpowered usb hub [09:16] TheFallenOne, get googling sir [09:16] i did [09:16] cowlikk read my long post again ^ [09:16] ahh it sliped by me thanks [09:16] AzAel, does the keyboard work wih the usb key when its plugged into the onboard? [09:17] chat spain¿ [09:17] lol the only thing else i know to do that was suggested was dowloading seamonkey drivers but since i can't put a lan line on that box anytime soon i can't just update it and use the packages [09:17] keyboard always works [09:17] and manual install is a killer with dependencies [09:17] so i guess i'll just wait till i can get a hard line on it [09:17] where ever i plug it [09:17] AzAel, indeed. but thats not the issue right now [09:18] AzAel, is the kb plugged into the usb hub? [09:18] just cant get a usb storage device to work off the kb [09:18] ActionParsnip: now...no only plugged it in there to test [09:18] hrmmmm [09:19] well thanks for everyones help. later. [09:19] AzAel, ok let me google a bit. [09:20] AzAel, got anything else usb? [09:20] AzAel, like a bluetooth dongle etc [09:20] AzAel it's like the little boy sitting on the sidewalk and sturing in a pile of dung, when the sargent walked by and asked him. "son what are you doing?" he said "im making a privet" the sargent asked "why don't you make a sargent?" he replied "cause i don't have enough shit for that" that's the problem you are having with the key. not enough .... [09:20] ActionParsnip: what do i do after i get the updates/ [09:21] posingaspopular, reboot is a good choice [09:22] no [09:22] after the upgrade not the update [09:22] after i sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade?

[12:26] not yet i wanna get the beryl thing u were talking about the other day [12:26] Oleander, thats good fun [12:27] if a normal system update (recommended by Adept updater) is making my system crash completely, is this then a hardware compatibility problem? (what I cannot imagine actually) [12:28] damn...i partitioned my 120gb hdd in the install to 30gb thinking thats what the linux would install on but its installed on the remaining 86gb [12:28] Oleander, http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=591580 [12:28] Oleander, easiest way is to leave the space unpartitioned at install time [12:29] or let me rephrase my question [12:30] i tried doing it the manual way but someone on here suggested doing it the guided way. [12:30] after a clean install, there are immediately 76 updated packages available [12:30] I guess it should be normally safe to follow those suggestions and to install them? [12:31] ActionParsnip: what do u recommend berly or compiz? [12:32] Oleander, guided is best but if the space is unpartitioned the installer will see it and offer to use it for the system drives [12:32] Oleander, I use beryl personally but others prefer compiz [12:32] podr0znik, I'd get them [12:33] ActionParsnip, ok, but yesterday evening my system completely crashed after doing so (not booting anymore, some error about "Kernel panic") [12:33] so I'm trying to figure out what I did wrong and how to do it better ;) [12:35] Jucato: ??? [12:35] I am now getting this error on boot... anyone have any idea why ... http://blog.somekool.net/images/img_4232.jpg [12:35] Oleander: beryl doesnt exist anymore - it merged with compiz...

[12:41] ActionParsnip, any idea about that error? [12:41] podr0znik, what packages need updating? [12:42] well, I must admit that usually I don't look at that [12:42] when Adept suggest an update, I just execute it [12:42] the same yesterday evening, but then it didn't boot anymore and was complaining about Kernel panic, that root couldn't mounted or sth like that [12:43] sth? [12:43] I didn't write down the complete error [12:43] iexecute the updates too [12:44] then I have no idea what I'm doing wrong [12:44] hmm [12:44] let me google [12:44] what kernel you on at the moment? [12:44] uname -r [12:45] 2.6.22-14-generic [12:45] the one supplied with 7.10 [12:45] 'cause I did clean install [12:45] and no updates yet [12:46] Anyone here use AcidRip? It always gives me a file where the audio is arround 20ms out from the video, how could I fix this? [12:47] test [12:47] how to install compiz?

[13:05] etfb: Not sure why its changed, but if I hit ctrl-w with only one tab open, it quits [13:05] ctrl-w quits the last one too. [13:06] (With Konqueror I'm used to ctrl-q for quit, and ctrl-w to close tabs) [13:06] lol [13:07] Pete_^: I hated that option, so I switched it off [13:08] Pete_^, thats cos you closed ALL thetabs. It does it on mine too [13:13] Hi any qt4 libs is needed for a proper kubuntu ? [13:13] Or can I remove libqt4-core without any trouble [13:14] lucky_lucas: I think only the Kubuntu Hardware Database and/or Speedcrunch depend on qt4 [13:15] Jucato: arf I don't want to mess up the current default install of qt4 [13:15] lucky_lucas, kde4 uses it too :D [13:15] hello, i've configured a luks with cryptosetup, but /etc/init.d/cryptdisks does not ask for a password on startup (i tried the patch from 62751 though I'm running gutsy but this still don't help) any idea why this does not work? one remark: the drive is attached via usb... and manually starting cryptdisks from console later on works fine [13:15] ActionParsnip: but that hardly qualifies as "proper Kubuntu" :D [13:15] I want to use the qt-copy for building kde4 from svn [13:16] lucky_lucas: sure no problem w/ that [13:16] lucky_lucas: following the guide on techbase.kde.org, it won't mess w/ any system installed packages (qt3/4 or kde3)... but using qt-copy would be redundant [13:16] Yes but while building kdesdk, cmake take my libqtxml from /usr/lib instead of home kde-devel qt-copy [13:17] Jucato: the guide on techbase isn't that up to date about the mess about qt4 [13:17] lucky_lucas: which mess? [13:18] Cmake would take the unpatched packages version of qt4 instead of using qt-copy [13:18] lucky_lucas: theoretically, kde4 should be able to build with no problem using a vanilla qt 4.3.2... if it doesn't, that's a major bug. so it really shouldn't matter which qt4 you use [13:18] hm... that's strange... [13:19] I have lost my toolbar somehow ,,what do I need to type in" run " to bring up the preferences so I can un-check auto hide [13:19] tatters: kcontrol [13:19] then go to Desktop -> Panels [13:19] my $qtdir env points to home kde-devel but while building kdesdk, cmake complains about /usr/whatever libqtxml [13:19] if by "toolbar" you mean "panel" [13:20] instead of the qt-copy one [13:20] k,thnx , yes it the panel that contains kmenu and systray [13:21] tatters: yep. then kcontrol it is [13:21] lucky_lucas: hm... strange indeed... can you try asking in #kde4-devel about this? [13:21] Jucato: thans that did the trick [13:22] Ok it's for sure a mess in my env since i cleaned qt several time etc... but I will go there [13:22] lucky_lucas: it might also be specific to kdesdk only [13:22] hm... gtg... [13:23] Jucato: runing cmakekde on kdesdk tells me Found Qt-Version 4.3.3 (using /home/kde-devel/qt-copy/bin/qmake) [13:24] It tells me it tries to build /usr/lib/libqtxml.so, but there is no target [13:24] <[ExCluSiVe_v2]> Çäîðîâà === hagabaka` is now known as hagabaka [13:27] <[ExCluSiVe_v2]> Êòî ïîäñêàæåò êàê íàñòðîèòü SOCKS [13:28] !en | [ExCluSiVe_v2] [13:28] [ExCluSiVe_v2]: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are english only.

[15:20] BluesKaj: do you know how to get someone IP? [15:20] lg188: it's me [15:20] hi, i asked yesterday for a solution to the low resolution in the login screen, sombody told me to "sudo apt-get remove --purge kdm" and then install it again, but this didnt help! any ideas? [15:21] onishidato: you mean in a local network? [15:21] onishidato, someone in the the chat here ? [15:21] anybody have any ideas on how to get firefox's urlbar to stop on certain characters? like on windows if the urlbar has http://phpfi.com/284070 & i double click anywhere in the 284070 it selects only that instead of the entire url - not only that, but i can use CTRL+arrow key to navigate through segments of text in the urlbar... i.e. it will stop on /, =, &, ?, etc [15:22] BluesKaj, Hamra: some one who chat with me throught Kopete [15:23] sorry, no idea [15:25] onishidato left ? [15:25] I think he could use traceroute or xtraceroute, but some IP addys are hidden [15:25] DNS lookup, but I never used it [15:31] BluesKaj: do you know how to do? === moope1 is now known as mooper [15:33] no onishidato , but check this site : http://linux.die.net/man/1/host [15:35] BluesKaj: thks s much [15:35] do you know the whois command onishidato , dunno if it works in kopete [15:35] BluesKaj: i have try [15:35] BluesKaj: nothing happened [15:36] BluesKaj: ping also [15:36] onishidato, I think this is better : http://linux.die.net/man/1/dig [15:36] i figured out my firefox issue... layout.word_select.stop_at_punctuation ... it's turned off by default seemingly on everything except windows [15:37] onishidato, sometimes just doing a ' whois ' will give an IP address [15:38] BluesKaj: sometimes like Pidgin has === ubuntu is now known as ||[Neo]|| === usuario_ is now known as Alberto [15:39] i got cosmetic problem here [15:39] I am using Kubuntu Gutsy, and Xchat [15:39] but Xchat dock icon sometimes shows up too big [15:40] can somebody tell me hot to make it tiny, like other icons in dock? [15:41] vinik: in tray icon? [15:41] virnik: in tray icon? [15:42] onishidato: near hours... [15:42] or clock [15:42] so, classic icon dock, where you got kmix icon... [15:42] virnik: got it [15:42] so this icon sometimes shows up good...tinz [15:42] tiny [15:43] but in most cases, it is much more larger [15:43] and ugly [15:43] or can i switch it off? i can use kdocker...it looks the same [15:43] but this is really ugly [15:44] I'm running gutsy and need the realplay package, should i add the feisty-commercial repo or is there anything better suited? [15:45] Does anyone know how to get a Radeon R300 working properly? [15:46] PsySine, try the helix player , if you repos are all open like medibuntu , it's the linux version of realplayer [15:46] I dunno what's wrong... It gets into the right resolution, but the picture is squashed [15:47] and xvidtune doesn't want to help out :-( [15:47] BluesKaj: maybe I'm mistaken, but I don't think that's exactly true. I'm pretty sure helix lacks a lot of functionality of realplayer, which does have a linux version, and is separate from helix [15:47] BluesKaj: i think helix player can't play real media. i think is has no proprietary codecs at all [15:50] well, i guess you answered your own question then PsySine ...try the proprietary realplayer for linux. [15:50] i installed realplay from feisty-commercial and it seems to work fine :) [15:51] RealPlayer10GOLD.bin ? === Deviance is now known as TimS [15:52] BluesKaj: the realplay package in deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main [15:53] oh , i keep thinking in terms of ' Gutsy ' [15:55] Hi all... How in kdeubuntu do you see all the harddrives on a sys.. As fedora, it shows the drive icons on the desktop... thx [15:57] is there a way to specify what screen a [firefox] windows should open, when launched from command line? === ubuntu_ is now known as kubuntu [15:57] jsl: can you rephrase that? [15:58] how do I see all the hd's on my sys [15:58] oh, you want to specify which monitor, on a multi-display system, to open a window on? [15:58] yes [15:59] I'm using a laptop with a docking station. when I'm a work I've a lcd panel connected to the docking station that I use with the internal lcd (dual head). when I reboot at home, with only the internal lcd, and lauches firefox, it tries to open at hte other monitor... [15:59] and then dies [16:00] jsl: I think it depends on *how* you do multiple monitors. I imagine you have them arranged like a single desktop, so the only way I know to do that is if the app allows you to specify coordinates (usually a geometry option) on the command line [16:01] thing is, the last thing I do before logging out at work, is to replace xorg.conf with another that's only got one monitor (I haven't found a way to properly set it up:/ ) [16:02] so there shouldn't be another screen to place it on [16:03] jsl: ok so maybe firefox is remembering the coordinates it last opened at, and now those coordinates don't exist and it can't handle it === bbm4n is now known as blaman === bertrand is now known as reineur [16:04] hello [16:04] hmmm... I've got the option to extend the desktop to 3360x1050 (which is what I do at work, two panels at 1680x1050) [16:04] but I'm using 1680x1050 [16:04] I tried renaming the profile directory, that didn't do anything [16:05] nor purging and reinstalling firefox [16:05] guys does anyone knows if there is a way to keep track of a specific applications cpu usage? [16:05] but when I'll get back to work, and launch firefox, it will open fine - at the other monitor [16:05] try renaming the whole ~/.mozilla - if that doesn't work it's probably not firefox that's keeping the geometry info [16:05] blaman: top [16:06] trappist: I've done that, that doesnt do anything [16:06] I think its kde that screws up [16:06] jsl: I'm starting to think the same thing [16:07] trappist oh i know top but i am more interested in something like a graph like the ones in ksysguard exept than i want to monotor a specific application and not like cpu usage in general [16:07] hmm.. there is a --display option in the command line, how do I find out what this display is called? [16:07] jsl: echo $DISPLAY [16:07] itsjustme, you have the option of copying and pasting or linking the drives in storage media to the desktop [16:09] can i write a script that executes 3 xrandr commands one after the other? [16:09] firefox --display=:0 -g-fatal-warnings <--- that does nothing [16:10] jsl: I wonder if you can kill kwin and start firefox - it won't have window decorations, but we might learn something, and then you could restart kwin [16:10] sure [16:10] two secs [16:12] that did nothing [16:12] lame. [16:13] (had to switch to tty1 to restart kwin, after I killed it I couldnt set focus to any windows :P) [16:13] anyone? [16:15] use a for loop? [16:15] or just write the command on three lines after each other? [16:15] :P [16:16] hmm... [16:16] ok and i mark the file as executable? [16:16] sigma_kubuntu: in your bash script, put "command1 && command2 && command3" [16:16] now firefox lauches just fine :P [16:16] sigma_kubuntu: chmod +x filename.sh [16:16] that would execute the commands one after the other *only if* the previous command finished executing [16:16] (otherwise use & instead of &&) [16:17] for more info about bash scripting, I think there's a #bash channel... [16:18] hmm.. wonder what made firefox start lauching at the right display... [16:18] is there an easy way of getting my machine specifications? [16:18] like, processor, RAM, OS, etc [16:19] Lacrymology: lspci [16:19] and lshw [16:20] thanks [16:20] np [16:21] then you have lsusb and lspcmcia [16:22] Lacrymology, there's a utility called 'system info' , if I recall, works fine on kde , it might already be installed by default [16:23] actually "Sysinfo" [16:24] yeah I don't think lspci shows processor, ram or OS [16:25] how can I see my hd's in kde,,,, I tried konqouer and i still don't see the drives [16:26] itsjustme, you have the option of copying and pasting or linking the drives in storage media to the desktop [16:26] hi [16:26] kinfocenter is nice too [16:26] :P [16:26] a friend installed kubuntu 7.10 but his bootloader is messed up, is there a kde too with a wizard for grub ? [16:27] can somebody know how to force Xchat to show normal icon in docker? [16:27] cos it shows sometime really huge icon at the clock bar [16:27] it is ugly [16:27] itsjustme, look in the panel , choose System Menu/Storage Media [16:29] i see it but cant access it hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000 [16:31] btw: adept installer hangs for like 30 secs and more when selecting > 10 programs to install... wouldn't it be better to do another thread for dependency solving and keeping the interface snappy? [16:32] its my windows ntfs file hd... I can't see in it [16:32] itsjustme: you need to either start it with kdesu or give your user access to the filesys (?) group (hang on - I'll check what the group is called) [16:32] sec [16:32] cool thanks but I wouldn't know what to do with it === [WarMage] is now known as DarthWar [16:33] I'll tell you [16:33] just a sec [16:33] k [16:34] (this is btw another thing in kubuntu that's "broken" by design - it should give some "I need elevated privelidges to continue - enter password or cansel" thingie instead of showing that useless error message) [16:37] itsjustme: your going to add yourself to the "disk" group. to do this, go K-->System Settings-->User Management-->Enter Administrator mode-->Select yourself-->Click Modify-->Secondary Groups-->Select-->find "disk" in the left coumnlum and click add [16:38] then ok/apply your way out of the thing [16:39] k, ill try it [16:40] didn't work,, Do I have to reboot? [16:40] you have to log out and back in for group changes to take a effect, utually [16:40] usually [16:41] ok, ill seeys i n aa bit [16:42] Hi [16:42] hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000 [16:43] if you run "id" does it show the group you added?

[16:46] do you see the group you added? [16:46] ,6(disk), <--- that's what "id" tells me [16:47] y disk is added or at least it is there [16:48] hmm [16:48] i can only access my linux hard drive [16:48] bye [16:48] did you look in /media? [16:49] hmm === Deviance is now known as TimS [16:49] im going to konquerer and looking in the storage media link [16:50] I see the icons for all the drives but can only access my ubuntu drive [16:50] cant get into windoz... now I know that "that's ok" but there is some stuffs I need on there..lol [16:50] remembered something: sudo aptitude install ntfs-config [16:50] well, im not i "disk" group, but im mounting everything well, maybe its something in mount options? like read write access given to root only? [16:50] k [16:51] when you click on the windows drive you got "permission denied"? [16:51] then just add your drive with the ntfs-tool on the system menu [16:53] FatalError this is what I get... Im working on something jsl is suggesting hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000 [16:53] I would like to add yp-auth support to my existing squid installation. How do I do this?

[16:56] err [16:56] done and works [16:56] thx [16:56] without the ! [16:56] :P [16:56] :) [16:56] hello, how do i enable ssh on my box? [16:56] Now is anyone up to the real challenge.. [16:56] dunno why this is made so "hard" [16:57] :) [16:57] evenin' all [16:57] itsjustme, go to system settings/advanced/disks and filesystems, double-click the partition you want, and check the mount point, and the security in the bottom [16:57] Its not hard,, Just be patient.. there is plenty of knoledgeable people here to help [16:57] !ssh | cloneyin [16:57] cloneyin: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol.

Massive problems with getting sound! [16:58] itsjustme: what kind of sound card does it have? [16:58] well.... it should "just work".. they install ntfs-3g by default - then there should be a way for anyone to use it [16:59] I think it a hda intel [16:59] !intelhda | itsjustme [16:59] itsjustme: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [16:59] :) [16:59] how can i allow it? [16:59] yea but it didnt work the last time I tried it//// dont know how to move the files around to the dest folder\\ [17:00] how can i allow ssh [17:00] I have the files on the sys\ [17:00] cloneyin: read the link the bot gave you! [17:01] i have no time [17:01] i gotta go to work now [17:01] please tell me shoudl be one simple command [17:01] install the sshd server. [17:01] itsjustme: if you need to move files as root, press super + r and type: kdesu dolphin [17:01] !find ssh [17:01] I was working with a guy last week on this issue and we got almost all the way and he had to leave.. Is there some other brake sole willing to walk me through the install of sound on my laptop? [17:01] Found: openssh-client, openssh-server, ssh, ssh-askpass-gnome, aolserver4-nssha1 (and 28 others) [17:02] cloneyin: sudo apt-get install ssh [17:02] sigh [17:02] ok wait [17:02] * Dr_willis alsays finds it amuseing when people ask him to 'wait' on IRC. [17:02] isitjustme where did you get to and what is left to do? [17:03] so by default ssh is not installed [17:03] umm.... [17:03] not knowing what I wass doing, he left and I ended up reinstalling the os [17:03] because it ended up worst than it started [17:04] ok, so you've a fresh install with no sound? [17:05] hpw about remote desktop? [17:05] I have the files downloaded already and am flashing them to the laptop now if someone could walk me through the install [17:05] cloneyin, that is often done with the 'vncserver' program . I reccomend the 'vnc4server' package. [17:05] so by default its not installed ,correct? [17:05] cloneyin, and correct. SSH server is not installed by default. Ubuntu tries to not install any services by default. [17:06] When in doubt - take the most secure option. :) [17:06] itsjustme I'll try but I don't know how much use I'll be :-) [17:06] last attempt we removed the mods and I ended up with no sound in both the ubuntu (which had non anyway) and my windows too.. So I got the win up and reinstalled its sound but I still have no sound on my fresh install of ubuntu [17:06] the gnome and kde desktops have a vnc/shareing feature. thats using the vnc protocal. but thats not the same as the vnc4server. [17:07] thanks all, i appreciate the help [17:07] changing linux drivers wouldn't break the windows one, that stopped because the first instruction on that page is to turn off sound in the BIOS [17:07] cloneyin: try nomachine nx [17:07] much better than vnc [17:08] well, it looked like a pretty complicated procedure so If any knoledgeable people can help me out I would apprec. it.. :) [17:08] itsjustme, Hmm.. anything you do in ubuntu shouldent be affecting windows at all.. You must be really good at breaking things. :) [17:09] hahahahah I guess so because thats what happeded [17:09] it's not as bad as it look (I don't think) [17:09] Im ready if you r [17:09] should we go private [17:10] Nah it's ok, firstly have you tested your new install completely? [17:11] how to test an install\ [17:11] ie system settings /sounds / test sounds (+make sure it's all sensible settings?) [17:11] oh [17:11] yea [17:11] I have been there last week... Ill look at it again now [17:11] put a cd in etc (it's always better to start with the simple stuff!) [17:12] no sound on test... sound is enabled [17:12] if you try to play a sound in the media player does it seem to be playing and you just get no output? [17:14] h/o [17:15] I looked at the setting in sound and when done i clicked ok and it says restarting sound sys.... but it is taking forever [17:15] 0 to 95% over and over [17:15] put a cd in but nothing is happening [17:16] opened konquer storage media... nothing is listed [17:17] I think that's a different issue to the sound not working [17:17] ok,,, using ksCD and it looks working but no sound [17:18] the kscd is playing the cd without sound and there is an error [17:18] it is Error getting freedb entry [17:19] there is vol on the taskbar [17:19] ok cool, there's another guide to getting it all working here http://taufanlubis.wordpress.com/2007/11/26/fix-no-sound-for-ubuntu-in-toshiba-satellite-a205-s4707/ [17:20] THATS the one we used but this guy that helped me last week said there are a few needed changes that need to be made to that install [17:20] Do you want to try walking through it with me? [17:21] if you've been there maybe we're better off with the official ubuntu guide [17:21] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [17:23] ok thx... I guess I was having issues getting the files from the desktop to the correct dir [17:23] just start at the top and let us know where you get stuck, the guide looks pretty comprehensive [17:23] ok [17:23] thx [17:23] [17:24] you need to put them in /src which a system folder so you'll need a bunch of sudo [17:24] i always install mc. and use it to do my root needing file managing needs. :) [17:24] hhmmmnnn that website isnt working [17:25] which one? [17:25] the taufan one [17:25] ill try the other [17:25] don't bother just stick with the ubuntu one, it's the same info [17:25] k.. thx [17:29] is there a way to get kate to apply a particular syntax coloring to a file without having to save the file first?

[17:40] I guess I need to make the folder [17:40] ~ implies that its in your home dir.. Soundst o me like the docs said to Download stuff to /home/Whatever/download [17:40] the files are on my flash [17:40] then use the path to your flash drive. :() [17:41] and NO i dont know what that is. :) /media/SOMTHING [17:41] yes that wass the next q? lol [17:41] ill try drag [17:42] rember when i said learning to use 'mc' is handy? :) its a decnt file manager to use as root.

[17:45] tzd, you may want to clarify your problem a little more. [17:45] itsjustme, thers no need to use 'sudo' to make a dir in the users home dir. [17:46] you proberly can just cp the things from where they are at using cp /home/USERNAME/Desktop/whatever /whever/it/said/to/copy/them/to [17:47] you proberly will need a 'sudo' for that. :) depending on the where... [17:47] Dr_willis: sure thing :) I would like to have desktop 1 on my F1 key and desktop 2 on my F2 key. So when i press F1 the desktop should switch to the virtual desktop 1 etc. [17:47] so how do I get all 3 files from the desktop to the usr/src/alsa folder? [17:47] I am in alsa now\ [17:47] itsjustme, sudo cp /path/to/the/files /usr/src/alsa [17:48] tzd, You have exlored the kde shortcut features? it may not be doable without a metakey. sicne a lot of those Fkeys are allready being used by the window manager. [17:48] so, sudo cp/desktop (the file name there r 3 ) /usr/src/alsa?? [17:48] tzd, Unless of coyurse you are using Compiz [17:48] Dr_willis: i am indeed using compiz fusion [17:48] itsjustme, the full path to the files is best to use [17:49] tzd, then you need to exlore the ccsm tool. Good Luck. :) [17:49] * Dr_willis dosent TOUCH compiz [17:49] Dr_willis: and there's a setting in there that suppose to change it although it wont work... it worked on ubuntu but now when im running kubuntu it wont work for some reason [17:49] there are 3 LONG files... is there a way to just move all the files from the desktop (which is just the ones I need ) to the dest folder? [17:49] Dr_willis: fair enough :) [17:50] I would guess that some how kde is grabbing the keys befor compiz is. [17:50] ill just try setting it in KDE directly instead of using compiz then [17:50] I just set up the mouse wheel to change desktops. :) [17:50] mouse over the desktop0-pager, scroll the wheel :) [17:50] yeah ive got that as well with the scroll... although im pretty addicted to my beloved function keys [17:51] I cant imagine HOW you started using the Fkeys directroy for the desktops.. [17:51] maxthon webbrowser ;P [17:51] never heard of it. [17:51] compiz is soo nice in that it has 100000000000000000+ keyboard combos to do everything.. heh [17:51] now if only they had a way to print out what keys are doing what. [17:51] it's huge... in china ;P well, in that u can assign any key for any web page... started to bind a lot of sites and that's how it started [17:52] You may want to check out Opera and its fast-site feature, actually firefox has a similer extension [17:52] yea [17:52] pretty much [17:52] if you want to use firefox [17:53] you need to install all the extensions people wrote to mimic opera [17:53] http://portal.opera.com/startup/?tip=speeddial [17:53] speeddial [17:53] and even then you have to deal with gecko [17:53] !enter | hydrogen [17:53] hydrogen: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

I want it to restart upon logging out [18:48] so it's more drastical than just "removal" [18:48] ok [18:48] actually I'm still wondering if I can select a number of packages to update in Updater [18:48] Paddy_EIRE: oh sorry, thought that question was a bit easy ^^ [18:48] instead of just updating everything at once (and probably getting an error, which happened every time so far) [18:48] :P [18:49] podr0znik, you are best working through those errors and updating everything as its the proper way === genii_ is now known as genii [18:50] sure looks like I did a lot...

[19:03] bye all.. work time for me.. back in 8 hrs or so [19:03] because the stupid application WONT uninstall now [19:03] podr0znik: yeah, i once found the configuration dialog and i changed the frequency to every 2nd day, but now i see it was mistake and it's still too much. [19:04] i think once per month would be optimal choice :) [19:04] ksal: I'm happy to see already that there IS a configuration dialog [19:04] I didn't know that [19:04] but it depends on what connection speed do you have [19:04] 16 [19:05] who automounts cdroms in kubuntu? KDE's HAL? or Kubuntu itself? [19:05] podr0znik: yeah, i can't remember where [19:05] DexterF: i thought it's always HAL's job [19:05] im running kde and the sound sounds like a skipping record and new programs open really slow idea?

[19:17] rec53: thank you, you just saved me from screaming till someones head popped [19:17] hello, how can i disable autoremove? WHY can't I decide what to do with my packages?, if something is goin to brake, then let it brake, give then the possibility of autoremoving it as a separate feature....!!!! [19:18] t3hwiz0rd: How did you install it, it doesn't appear to be in the standard repos, so your sources.list may like a tidy up now [19:18] rec53: i followed a guide [19:18] itsjustme, delete the #, in front of sudo make install [19:19] t3hwiz0rd: Just to satisfy my curiosity, would you mind pastbinning your sources.list ( cat /etc/apt/sources.list ) :) [19:20] rec53: well, i already removed the repo for it rec53 [19:20] its back to the default sources.list that comeso ut of the box :-P [19:20] t3hwiz0rd: Ah, rightio, don't worry then :) [19:20] i *typically* know what im doing [19:20] from time to time, not so much [19:21] !source-o-matic | t3hwiz0rd [19:21] t3hwiz0rd: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic [19:21] Thx [19:21] BluesKaj: i always manage my sources list to the point that i seperate my additional repos from repos defaulted [19:21] they're spaced out and everything is perfectly labeled in my src.list [19:22] so if something doesn't go over well.. removal is all i need, then i clean up the sources.list [19:22] neatness is nice but it doesn't help anything :) [19:22] well it does if you know what is and isn't needed [19:23] I keep a backup copy on gmail in case of emergency [19:23] hi [19:23] t3hwiz0rd, ? [19:26] wel , I keep the necessary media repos , that's about the only extras required for my doings [19:28] can someone help me figure out my my system when not running anything is eating 800mb of ram?

[19:29] Paddy_EIRE: Got my error :/ [19:30] first it downloads all packages (at least I guess so), then it starts installing them [19:30] when at 62% it's "preparing to configure new version of libqt3-mt..." [19:30] there it stops [19:30] rudihawk: also the throuput on the ram is maxed [19:30] "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages." [19:31] when I close that dialog box, it stops installing the rest of the updates, so don't know if they are actually installed or not [19:31] cannot find any log or whatever [19:32] podr0znik: Can you run sudo aptitude safe-upgrade from the command line instead, then you can copy and paste the error? [19:33] trying [19:35] it looks like from command line it will try doing where Adept stopped [19:35] it says "Setting up libqt3-mt (3:3.3.8really3.3.7-0ubuntu11.1)..." [19:36] and then asks what I want to do, 'cause the file already exists basically [19:36] if I want to install the package maintainer's version or keep my currently-installed version (default) [19:36] I can also look at the differences [19:37] BluesKaj....ok I have completed the whole thing and rebooted,, I now have a red circle white x on my speaker... Cursur over it and i get Mixer not found?? [19:37] follow the default or install the other one? [19:37] anyone know how to fix a caching issue? [19:38] Does anyone know what's up with libxine1 in gutsy-backports? [19:38] podr0znik: I'd look at the differences if I was you (I don't know what I should say to do otherwise), you might as well. [19:38] nvm battery is going to die [19:38] done already [19:39] synaptic,,, kmix installing [19:39] I chose to install it [19:39] no smoke coming out of computer yet [19:39] hey guys I am faced with a blank screen of uselessness upon logging out of kde and I have to either power off or REISUB :S What I did when using gnome/gdm was to tick the box in the login manager that says "Restart X with each logout" anything similar in kde/kdm [19:40] Paddy_EIRE: the easy solution would be using gdm, sorry I don't know@kdm [19:41] yeah I thought that [19:41] thx anyhow :) [19:41] still no good... The speaker is on the taskbar with muted button on it... Cant unmute it [19:45] hello. after upgrading the packages with adept upgrade tool, amarok no longer starts. I get no error. what should I do?(Kubuntu 7.10) [19:46] tid-wave: open a konsole, then try to run 'amarok', does it give any error messages? [19:47] fdoving: http://rafb.net/p/iu1HRK94.html === DarthWar is now known as [WarMage] [19:50] tid-wave: hmm.. maybe you should try #amarok - i'm out of ideas. [19:50] fdoving: thanks for answering me. I'll try #amarok [19:55] Can someone please tell me how to delete all kde4 system settings? i was trying to see how my VIA chrome card reacts to desktop effects and it now gives me a blank white screen everytime i login to kde4. [19:55] tried running kde4-system settings from within gnome. doesnt seem to work [19:55] does anybody know of a dictionary program i can use offline? [19:56] Hamra: dictd [19:56] Hamra: ding [19:56] thnx [19:56] for a server- and then you can use any dictionary lookup client to point to it. === Extrapan100^BNC is now known as Pezet [19:56] i'll try that too [19:56] anakin_: If you don't care about any setting then you could remove ~/.kde4 [19:57] (or just move it out of the way) [19:58] Well, after another half a day trying to configure this laptop for sound the only changes are that I have a muted volume button with "Mixer cannot be found" and I now cannot go online with the laptop.. N I C E === Pupeno- is now known as Pupeno [20:00] Hello [20:00] anyone using KDE 4? === ubuntu_ is now known as cn28h [20:02] Is it possible to mount a vfat partition from a Gutsy livecd? [20:03] I'm getting that it's an unknown filesystem [20:03] cn28h: should be. [20:03] any armenians here around? [20:04] nosrednaekim: suggestions as to how? [20:04] cn28h: not if it gives you that error [20:04] hrm, odd that a livecd wouldn't have support for fat32 filesystems [20:07] but the kubuntu installer did detect my fat32 file systems! and with the gutsy live CD! [20:08] I'm not talking aboout if I can see the partition types.. fdisk knows what they are. I'm talking about actually mounting them [20:09] Can someone help me get my wireless internet back] [20:11] hrm, there's even mkfs.vfat.. I can make a fat32 filesystem, just not actually use it [20:13] cn28h, are you sure your partition isnt corrupted? [20:13] Hamra: yes [20:13] is there any lyrics script for amarok that searches darklyrics.com? (i'm to bad to do my own) === Pezet is now known as Extrapan100^BNC [20:13] Hamra: being corrupted wouldn't make it say that vfat is an unknown fs type though, anyway :/ [20:13] check kde-apps.org Ax-Ax [20:14] I think for some reason vfat mounting support is just not included [20:14] did you use dynamic disks in windows? [20:14] I didn't use it in windows [20:14] it's an external HDD and I'm just trying to image a disk on this machine [20:16] well, it does have ext3 support, guess I'll just move the disk image to my ext3 partition [20:16] hydrogen, thanks [20:17] I think I've got a bit of a problem [20:17] but i need to install qtruby, tkruby or somethingotherruby [20:17] Jortmans: what is it? [20:18] I think I've messed up the computer I'm using really bad, I was trying to set up a kubuntu partition for my self on my parent's computer but now the only system I can get up and running is the Kububtu, and even that is with some hocus-pokus [20:18] oops [20:18] several program suddenly shut down [20:18] so How do I wipe out all the linux elements so I can re-install the windows? [20:18] VilleVicious: messed up grub? [20:19] VilleVicious: windows will wipe the linux elements [20:19] :D [20:19] happy [20:19] *happily [20:19] ok, so I don't have to do enything about the ext3 partition? [20:20] windows wipes everything, no respect to any other OS! === [WarMage] is now known as DarthWar [20:20] well, why am I not really uprised about that [20:21] the windows installation will say its an unknown partition, you can format it ntfs, or delete or partitions and recreate them! [20:21] I have a weird question ... when I run mplayer I usually can mplayer partialFilename and it'll complete, however it doesn't do this with .m4v files, but mplayer plays m4v fine. Where/how would you associate the file with mplayer? [20:21] can someone help me get my wireless internet back? [20:21] For the record file association in konqueror doesn't do it. [20:22] nosrednaekim: several programms suddenly shutdown, without warning. and sometimes I am automaticaly logged out [20:22] My Current situtation is: the only way I can currently get to the OS selection is by booting from a windowscd then exit the installer when it restarts I get to the selection and the only option that works is Kubuntu [20:23] the-erm: see /etc/bash_completion [20:23] thanks cn28h [20:23] I have a new laptop toshiba and earlier I was tring to get sound on it... we went to great lenths and unfortunetly failed to get the desired result.. Also after rebooting now I have no internet on my laptop...Can someone please help me get it back [20:24] could somebody help me, several programms suddenly shutdown, without warning. and sometimes I am automaticaly logged out [20:24] Jortmans: overheating? [20:24] So I think its safest ( as in the only thing I can do with reasonable hope of success) is the re-installing windows [20:24] Hey, anyone here able to tell me if the Ubuntu Wiki page on the g15 keyboard is still the proper steps to follow? [20:25] itsjustme: what does "iwlist scan" say? [20:25] you can boot windows cd, and click R, do a fixboot, and fixmbr [20:25] no, it sometimes gives an error but not everytime and I'm just logged out the pc doesn't shut down [20:25] Hamra: was that directed at me? [20:26] Jortmans: take a look at "dmesg" when that happens, [20:26] ? [20:26] iwlist [20:27] looks like it didnt detect anything [20:28] hello, how can I debug dpkg? there`s a KDM that just won`t install and doesn`t give a clue about the problem [20:28] yes [20:28] fixmbr deletes grub [20:28] theres a ton of confusing stuff\ [20:28] quality 31/100 [20:29] ok, thanks for the advice [20:29] how do I go to the configuration window, to set up default applications for some action???

[23:52] savageone: yeah... === tehm0nk-food is now known as tehm0nk [23:53] can I do that from there [23:53] for some reason openoffice is showing most of my menu items in some kind of greek cyrillic gibberish instead of english. is there something I can do to fix this? [23:53] unfortuantely, I'm not skilled enough to be looking for debs hehe [23:53] I'm pretty well versed in linux, but not a lot in trouble shooting etc just in usage and stuff [23:53] Then create a directory under temp then mount your / directory to that folder. Then chroot to that folder. Make sure if you have seprate mount points in your fstab to make directories for them under the one in the tmp directory then chroot [23:53] drbobb: No luck with just replacing the sources, the proxy info must be stored somewhere else.. [23:54] savageone: take a look at the /var/Xorg.0.log [23:54] good idea [23:54] it's an nvidia card [23:54] it all stems from me getting this weird split screen thing happening [23:54] others reported it [23:54] I read about doing an apt get for the legacyt driver [23:54] and it screwed me [23:54] greg: that's really weird [23:55] drbobb: Almost concerning :P [23:55] savageone: What nvidia card do you have? [23:55] are you sure you replaced /etc/apt/sources.list? [23:56] drbobb: pretty sure, although I did glance at the old one before replacing it and saw no proxy information. [23:56] savageone: I had that issue when I initially did the install. I had to swap drivers [23:57] downix: yeah, that's what I was trying to do!! How did you "swap em" [23:57] hehe [23:57] but does the site in the message when apt-get is run match what's in the sources.list? [23:57] or not? [23:57] drbobb: I'll give you a read out of what's going on.. [23:57] savageone: I used the LiveCD to change the startx to stock VGA, un-apt'ed it, then re-downloaded it [23:57] okay [23:57] so how do you UNAPT something [23:58] because I'd like to do that w/ the stuff I apted [23:58] my problem is, the system is a linuxmce system [23:58] drbobb: [23:58] sudo apt-get update [23:58] Err http://security.ubuntu.com gutsy-security Release.gpg [23:58] Could not connect to franc.cc.strath.ac.uk:8080 (130.159.248.36). - connect (113 No route to host) [23:58] which as you know runs on kubuntu, and it's acting as my rtouter [23:58] and I through out my other router [23:58] savageone: "apt-get remove whatever" [23:58] so I can't get online at home [23:58] I'm sitting here trying to figure out what the hell to do before I go home [23:58] if I go into rescue mode [23:58] greg: hmm [23:58] can I still run apt-get [23:59] wait a few mins [23:59] drbobb: np [23:59] savageone: Do you know exactly what NVIDIA card you have? [23:59] no unfortunately [23:59] it's a newer pci express one [23:59] OK, do lspci and let me know what the NVIDIA line says [23:59] I can't dude
