jhutchinstzanger: don't even try to use the kde vpn manager, you've gotta go old school and use pptp-command and some manual hacking.00:14

tzangerinvoking openvpn on the commandline00:15
stunatramixed, knetwork manager works fine.00:15

adamI'm trying to install the latest NVidia driver, but it says I need to exit my X session.  How can I do this?  I tried to kill kwin and Xorg, but to no avail...00:15
tzangeroh well00:16
tzangerI'm trying to get a routed network across this00:16
mixedstunatra, thanks00:16
jhutchinsadam: You need to go to a console (ctrl-alt-F1 for instance), then stop dm.00:17
stunatrayw00:17
jhutchinsadam: /etc/init.d/dm stop00:17
jhutchinsadam: sudo of course00:17
adamjhutchins: Okay, I'll do that, thanks :)00:17
jhutchinsadam: Pretty sure it's just dm, could possiblly be kdm instead.00:17
tzangerI can add the route, I can ping the other side of the tunnel, but i can't get past it.  weird.00:17
jhutchinstzanger: possibly the problem is the settings on the far end.00:18
mixedstunata, is there another utility besides knetwork manager?  for some reason knetworkmanager isn't working in my disto00:19
sensaeI'm rather jealous of VMWare Fusion, it's their Mac fork. Apparently you can use bootcamp to dualboot OSX and Windows, and then inside OSX, boot your Windows partition as a VM with DirectX support :/00:20
excitatoryso i noticed the XGL implementation in ubuntu defaults to the pc101 style keyboard mapping..I'm attempting to manually set it to pc105 with this command: setxkbmap -rules xorg -model pc105 -layout us    >>> However, I get this error: Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property00:20
doobehyeah, installed fusion on my mates macbook pro-- pretty nice integration00:20
excitatoryI'm searching around for solutions, but nothing seems to work.. it's like it's missing a component.00:21
doobehI'm sure the dx support will bleed over to the other vm varients sooner or later00:21
sensaeI would love to be able to open my Windows partition as a VM, even without DX support00:21
doobehit's a bit more tricky if your wanting to use your current windows system (rather then creating the vm machine from scratch)00:22
doobehget a backup of your computer and restore it into a vm machine00:23
sensaeIf you create a VM from scratch, can you get that effect? Being able to open a VM of Windows, or boot into it natively?00:23
doobehyou can open it for sure-- boot into it natively I'm not sure about00:23
doobehthe higher end vm products allow something like that00:24
doobehgsx server or something?00:24
doobeh<-- terrible memory.00:24
doobehyeah, but you can run windows in a vm within linux no problem00:24
doobehThe way I've got my machine set up at work is have my main os running (windows in my work case)00:25
doobehand then just dedicate my second monitor to showing the kubuntu vm machine when I've got it up00:25
doobehwith vmware tools, the mouse transfers fine between both machines and you can drag-drop files to and from easily00:25

intelikeysensae badblocks takes a long time.01:49
sensaeintelikey: I know it does, but I used the -s flag. It was doing it's thing normally, and now I'm getting scrolling "Buffer I/O error on device hdb, logical block (number)"01:50
xenobiusi love old marilyn manson, he was funny01:50
sensaeThe numbers are sequential, it looks like sectors. Is that badblock's way of telling me those are bad?01:51
sensaeI'm used to running it without the -s flag, where any output = bad sign01:51

intelikeysensae oh my.  sounds like you have found something.    could be  1. cable loose (dirty or otherwise not connecting full time)  2. controler on the drive failing.   3. physical defect on the hd   4. a peace of code that is triping an unknown error. (to test for this one you can cat /dev/zero > /dev/hd?   and run badblocks again)  ***destroies all data ***01:53

Dr_willisdepends on how anal you want to be in your definition of programming. :)02:01
sputnick:)02:01
intelikeydoc heh i guess02:02
sensaeintelikey: Ah. Doing it to /dev/hda comes up clean (so far) and they're on the same IDE channel. Could badblocks be getting I/O errors if the controller on the drive itself is dying?02:02
sputnickdefine(pain_ass)02:02
Dr_willisand yes ive seen many a fight over  is 'scripting' programing.. and   at the most common definition i say yes it is. :)02:02
intelikeysensae yes  that was #2 in the list ^02:02
Dr_willisif you can 'program' a vcr, then programing  a bash shell - is still programing. :002:03

sensaeintelikey: I did for about 30 seconds. I'm badblocking hda and it's still clean so far. I'm thinking the controller on hdb is screwed and that's what was clicking02:06

PengMediapirate: In many channels on Freenode, the ops only op themselves when they need to. So there might still be some around.10:03
ScorpKingis this the one libavcodec1d ?10:03
Mediapirateoh ok....don't worry I wasn't planning on doing anything just wondering10:03
PengMediapirate: (It's even recommended in Freenode's FAQ.)10:04
ubuntudoes sdc = hd2?10:04
ubuntugenerally10:04
ScorpKingscd?10:04
ubuntuin the dev folder10:04
MediapirateOk thanks Peng10:04
ScorpKingubuntu: that's usually sda/b/c/d for disks10:05
ScorpKingubuntu: so sdc will be the secondary master10:05
ubuntuso if i have a grub already installed on hd0 and sdc is a removable storage drive, would this be bootable on another machine?10:06
ScorpKingi can play mp3's but i don't have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed10:06
=== __rysiek|pl__ is now known as rysiek|pl
rysiek|plScorpKing: on Kubuntu you should install kubuntu-restricted-extras10:07
ScorpKingubuntu: hd0 means the first disk as far as i know10:07
ubuntuso hd2 should be sdc regardless of partitions?10:08
ScorpKingrysiek|pl: yeah but i'm trying to figure out how i play mp3's if i don't have it installed10:08
rysiek|plScorpKing: besides, those are only "metapackages", i.e. they just pull the needed packages (with codecs, flash, etc) from the repo10:08
ScorpKingubuntu: yep10:08
rysiek|plScorpKing: they don't, by themselves, install the codecs, they just have the packages with codecs in their dependancies10:09
ScorpKingrysiek|pl: ok i see. so it must be this one then libavcodec1d ?10:09
ubuntu so if i put a grub on hd2 (as well as there being one on hd0) will this mess up the boot?10:09
rysiek|plScorpKing: possibly, yeah; just aptitude show kubuntu-restricted-extras and look on dependancies10:09
ScorpKingubuntu: if you have 2 bootable disks the bios will decide what gets booted first10:10
ubuntugreat, thanks :)10:10
ScorpKingrysiek|pl: hehe. i forgot about that one. thanks :)10:10
rysiek|plScorpKing: you're welcome :)10:10
ScorpKingdo i need w32codecs as well? once again i don't have it installed but can play anything. :)10:12
ScorpKingkubuntu-restricted-extras has flash and java as well. hehe. my flash and java is working so i'll rather leave it alone for now10:14
ScorpKingi need to go work. cheers guys.10:15

RamlanoaXess: the filename is encoded in some other character set than what you are using in ubuntu. Do all ubuntu installations use utf-8 by default?13:10
Dr_Willisremove it.  remove it from the cache. perhaps enable a different repository for it.13:10
Dr_Williscould be it was just a bad download that one time.13:11
Dr_Willisyou may just need to remove it from the cache13:11

noaXessRamla: that are files, that i have copied fomr a windows box to my kubuntu13:12
RamlaYeah, windows doesn't use utf-8 (at least by default) so those filenames are just encoded in a different character set. I think there are conversion tools available if you want to get rid of all broken filenames13:13
ahmosit can't remove it too :D ha ha13:13
Dr_Willis it should be in /var/cache/apt somewhere. You will need root access to remove it.13:16

sub[t]rnlif its just .so's, could be a broken sym link in your /usr/lib's15:43
ScorpKinghmm.. the flash package is in kubuntu-restricted-extras. should that not be added to that factoid?15:44

ForgeAusafaik my /lib/* is ok15:46
sub[t]rnlnot if your missing a .so15:46
ForgeAusI copied/rebuilt the /etc/X11 stuff I think I did that ok15:46
ForgeAussub I'm guessing its not missing, just a reference to it is15:47
sub[t]rnlrebuilt the /etc/X11?15:47

ForgeAusthat one still had its name (at least the /X11/ bit)15:47

djdarkmanhello, how can I nuke dpkg`s database to the base system?15:51
ForgeAusjust delete the stuff from /var/cache/apt ???15:51
ForgeAusor is it /var/apt/cache one of them15:52
ForgeAusthat removes all the packages you've d/l'd anyway15:52
djdarkmanForgeAus: I want to nuke dpkg`s database too15:52
BluesKajdon't nuke it , update the DB with the command ;sudo updatedb15:52
ForgeAusas to the database you can just restore it by updating your list15:52
sub[t]rnlor if your trying to clear your /var/cache/apt/archives use apt-get clean15:53
djdarkmanno no, I meant the inst of the istalled aplications15:53
djdarkman*list15:53
ForgeAusBlues? isn't it something like sudo apt-get update ? I've never heard of udatedb :) nice shortcut if there is such a thing tho15:53
ForgeAusthe list is the database that it gets from sources.list15:53
BluesKajForgeAus, it's, sudo updatedb15:53
djdarkmanhmmm it worked15:53
djdarkmanohhh no15:54
ForgeAusso reset your sources.list to be the default and reupdate it15:54
djdarkmanit didn`t15:54
ForgeAuswhat exactly is wrong dj?15:54
ForgeAusyour finding packages in your list that shouldn't be there?15:54
BluesKajForgeAus, I'm referring to the database not the sources.list15:54
djdarkmanI have a corrupted packagees, and corrupted dpkg list, and I want to somehow re download all packages15:54
ForgeAusyeah Blues, but the database is built from the souces in sources.list15:55
djdarkmanmy IDE controler is malfunctioning15:55
ForgeAus(at least that was my point)15:55
BluesKajdjdarkman, use synaptic to fix broken pkges15:55
sigma_1234dj shouldnt u replace the motherboard?15:55
ForgeAusdarkman yeah fix your sources.list and fix your broken packages15:55
djdarkmansigma_1234: it`s a laptop and I need to work with it...15:55
BluesKajthe database also includes compiled debs and otherpkges not listed in the source repositories15:56
sigma_1234but if the ide controller is faulty its going to be a recurring problem15:56
djdarkmansigma_1234: yes but it recurs in "just" on or two days15:56
djdarkmanI just want to tell apt to re download all packagees and reistall them15:57
benluohi15:57
djdarkmanuntil I`ll have the time to put my machine in for repair this would be a greate help15:57
sigma_1234you should probably just format15:57
djdarkmansigma_1234: done that15:57
BluesKajdjdarkman,Open adept package manager, On the menu of that screen you will want to click on Adept -> Manage  Repositories. Click the Kubuntu software tab,check all the boxes "X". The same goes for the third party software tab. Close,and then in the terminal "sudo apt-get update".Now you have more sources for applications other than the defaults that came with Kubuntu15:58

ForgeAusI don't like rebooting either :) unless I absolutely have to I know how u feel16:17
ForgeAuswhats worse is people tell me to do it at the most inopportune times16:17
BluesKajsometimes the dvdrom needs rebooting , so...16:17
ForgeAuslike ones where I wouldn't have minded so much if I didn't have a 300mb file downloading in the b/g thats halfway through or something16:18
ForgeAusI guess I could boot my Kubuntu in a VM and see what output I get running Xserver in there16:20

ForgeAusScorp not sure I thought it was the reverse16:34

=== _aleksanteri_ is now known as aleksanteri

ForgeAusplus it's handy that it installs stuff into the kmenu windows icons and all :)16:35

noaXessScorpKing, BluesKaj: will try that..16:36

ForgeAusalinon is it a version specific thing?16:39

ForgeAussounds like just one of those things... I don't really know how to help you16:42
ForgeAusSchuen did it have content before you converted it? lol16:42
alinonlittle things like this is what keeps linux from hitting the main stream - because even the best distro's still can't keep the simple stuff simple haha16:42
SchuenemannForgeAus, what do you mean?16:42
ForgeAusif it was an "empty" chm then of course theres going to be no (or blank) html in the frames16:43
alinonthank you much for help forgeaus16:43
ForgeAusbut it sounds more likely that the conversion failed16:43
ForgeAusI don't know much about libchm_bin16:44
SchuenemannForgeAus, I mean there isn't a file with the 2 frames, only the contents16:44
ForgeAuswhat happens if you click a contents link?16:44
Schuenemannit opens...16:45
ForgeAusisn't that waht its supposed to do?16:45

ForgeAusyou click an index link it shows you the corresponding content16:46
Schuenemannyou don't have any index16:46
ForgeAusSchuen yeah it'd be nicer16:46
ForgeAusbut the conversion might not be smart enough to set it up in frames16:46
Schuenemanntoo bad16:47
Schuenemannit also generated a lot of non sense files16:47
ForgeAusif you want taht it shouldn't be too difficult to make one from that HTML file16:47
SchuenemannI guess so16:47
rysiek|plguys, is there a way to input a UNICODE char using Alt + NumPad?16:47

FirefisheWhy eliminate konqueror as the standard kde file manager?18:21

vltHello. I have an IBM Laptop running Ubuntu 7.10 with a cdrom drive in a docking station. Sometimes when connecting the laptop to the station the cdrom is recognized and I can access it, sometimes it's not -- and rebooting is the only way I know to enable it. Any idea how to access the drive w/o rebooting?19:47
adam_nuno: Check out kubuntu.org, on the front page they have simple instructions19:47
nunoadam_: Okay19:47
jpatrick!kde4 > nuno19:48
trappistadam_: well what I heard about this morning was an upstream change in linux, then I saw there was an update to the ubuntu kernel, looked in the git tree and saw that it fixes this issue19:48
nunoA package?!19:48
shingokitrappist: Which hardware are you having trouble with?19:48
trappistshingoki: I'm not having any trouble :)  I'm just trying to help19:49
adam_Upstream change?  As in, debian?  And I presume a git tree is, like, a change log?19:49
nunoHm... and is KDE4 compatible with Compiz Fusion?19:49
shingokitrappist: ah ok :) Then which hardware is someone else having trouble with? ;)19:49
trappistadam_: upstream as in kernel.org, and the git tree is the source repository ubuntu's using for kernel source19:49
trappistshingoki: nvidia card19:49
Odd-rationalenuno: Yes.19:49
nuno<_ Nice19:50
shingokitrappist: ah right. Proprietary driver all the way!19:50

g2g591ibou: thats autoremove21:37
g2g591ibou: but autoclean removes outdated packages from your cache (they take up space and are useless)21:38
mefisto__they are not useless if you want to reinstall a package you've removed21:38
g2g591mefisto__: but the also have old versions too21:39
mefisto__ditto21:39
ibousourcemaker: autoclean in  konsole or adpt ?21:40
mefisto__sudo apt-get autoclean21:40
axelsourcemaker: there is -pt. It prints an document on a printer. If you choose the pdf-Printer of kde this could work. I don't know it, as I have not tried it before.21:40
iboumefisto same with aptitude ?21:40
enrygoodbye!21:40
axeladz21c: As far as I know kdesvn does it automatically. (starting the svn-server)21:41
axeladz21c: or am I wrong?21:41
mefisto__ibou: I think so. "aptitude --help" should show you the options available21:41
adz21caxel: i couldn't say, but kdesvn works fine for me but i launch the server manually21:42
iboug2g591: i sould use "sudo apt-get autoremove" alone ?21:42
sourcemakeribou: autoremove clears out the local repository of retrieved package files. autoclean  remove packages that were automatically installed to satisfy dependencies for some package and that are no more needed21:43
mefisto__sourcemaker: isn't it the other way around?21:43
mefisto__autoremove removes (uninstalls) packages21:44
sourcemakermefisto__: hm.. yes... sorry21:44
sourcemakermefisto__: my mistake21:44
ibouok thanks21:44

NickPresta!flashissues | enzo22:23
ubotuenzo: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. Fixes have landed in -proposed for testing, but most most users are advised to wait until packages are approved and released in -updates.22:23

mir_How can I use google talk with kubuntu?22:23
norvI've already installed Flash, so that's a non issue22:24
norvit works fine in Firefox and I presume other Mozilla-based browsers, the wrapper plugin is just plain broke in Konqueror22:24
enzoNickPresta: you think i'll be able to do a apt-get upgrade to get last flash plugin when it will be ok §?22:24
NickPrestanorv, we know. The issue is being worked on22:24

NickPrestamir_, I don't understand what you need help with...22:29
NickPrestanorv, at the very least, you could use checkinstall to compile and create a deb so when the official fix comes, APT will recognize there is an update :)22:29

excitatorytheone: when you select each one, you might have to make sure you're clicking near the txt boxes' border so that the little resize/move grabbers appear and actually select the box and not the text inside.22:58

excitatoryStrangework: this isn't perfect, but try appending an & to your compiz command, make a new line, sleep 5&, new line, dcop kicker kicker restart23:43
mefisto__Dr_Willis: kdm is always 1024x768, even if I only have 1280x1024 in xorg.conf23:43
Dr_WillisStrangework,  put a delay in the script - so the powermanager has time to startup?23:43
mefisto__Dr_Willis: if I log out after startup, kdm is at the correct 1280x1024, but on first startup it's 1024x76823:45
Dr_WillisI thouhg i saw a checkbox or some setting tool in kde to set a specific res as the default for the system. But i dont have the problem. So not sure if thats a fix or not23:45
excitatorymefisto__: you know.. my kdm was doing that for a while.  I think i just commented out the modeline in the xorg.conf and it fixed it.23:51
mefisto__excitatory: so you have no modelines?23:51
excitatoryno, they've been pretty useless for a while, unless you're using certain configurations with open drivers23:52
excitatoryargh, whenever a kernel is updated, it always sets my grub config to boot from (hd1,0) and not (hd0,0) like it should be.. (i can manually fix it, but i have to do this after every kernel update..)23:57
BluesKajmefisto__, have you tried the admin mode in system settings/monitor & display/resolution ?23:58
