| Yannick75 | (in KDE 4.0.1) | 00:24 |
| Daisuke_Ido | start by going back to 3.5.8... but seriously, i'm not sure, #kubuntu-kde4 might be more helpful | 00:25 |
| Schuenemann | brad__, it seems package ruby1.8 is 1.8.6 | 00:25 |
| Yannick75 | ok | 00:27 |
| Yannick75 | well, i'm using kde 3.5.8 | 00:27 |
| Yannick75 | but i'm testing 4.0.1 as well | 00:27 |
| Yannick75 | though i know its not for real 'production' | 00:27 |
| Arwen | 4.0.1? say what? there's already a new version out? | 00:27 |
| Yannick75 | yes Arwen | 00:28 |

| Yannick75 | but i dont see anything fixed about the bugs i have detected as a simple user...that anyone can see! | 00:29 |
| Yannick75 | 4.0.2 in march i think | 00:30 |
| Yannick75 | the biggest next version will be 4.1 (july 2008), because there will be new apps | 00:30 |

| YgorOnLine | Hello, I'm migrating from Ubuntu to Kubuntu.... Where is the games? :P | 00:36 |
| biovore | under games.. | 00:36 |
| YgorOnLine | Do not exists a 'games' menu in the K button | 00:37 |
| biovore | kubuntu - ubuntu are the same thing basicly.. a couple of packages differernt (the kde / gnome) | 00:37 |
| brad__ | mirgrating from Ubuntu to Kubunut ? is that even possiable, it's like migrating from the channel SCI-Fi to TNT | 00:37 |
| Arwen | apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 00:38 |
| unagi | if i wanted to restart X via command line what would the command be | 00:38 |
| Arwen | :-) | 00:38 |
| biovore | no.. install the kubuntu-desktop package or the ubuntu-desktop package.. can have your cake and eat it too. | 00:38 |
| brad__ | YgorOnLine: do a apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 00:38 |
| Arwen | and then a few hours purging packages | 00:38 |
| brad__ | Arwen: no fair, I thought it first | 00:38 |
| unagi | wait what biovore you can have both | 00:38 |
| biovore | yup | 00:38 |
| biovore | there just programs.. the at the login manager you can select gnome/kde/xfce etc | 00:38 |
| brad__ | I kill kdm and restart it | 00:38 |
| unagi | kdm | 00:39 |
| unagi | got it | 00:39 |
| YgorOnLine | he... well | 00:39 |
| biovore | or gdm.. | 00:39 |
| biovore | if your gnome lover | 00:39 |
| YgorOnLine | ok, I will to do a apt-get | 00:39 |
| unagi | but in kjde restarting x would be kill all -hup kdm right? | 00:39 |

| unagi | i like kde | 00:40 |
| Arwen | KDE doesn't have braindead defaults :-P | 00:41 |
| unagi | ? | 00:41 |
| biovore | unagi: && on what. | 00:41 |
| YgorOnLine | and about kde4, already testing? | 00:41 |
| Arwen | and it actually has configuration tools :-) | 00:41 |
| unagi | in a bash script | 00:41 |
| YgorOnLine | (you) | 00:41 |
| biovore | unagi: I think you can use ; | 00:41 |
| unagi | for 'if that doesnt execute'? | 00:41 |
| biovore | not sure.. | 00:42 |
| unagi | anyone know? | 00:42 |
| sub[t]rnl | i missed the question | 00:42 |
| YgorOnLine | Would be better if I download the beta of kde4 and install here? Or to wait the next kubuntu? | 00:42 |
| unagi | is there a bash opperator that is opposite to &&? | 00:42 |
| biovore | beta is for testing.. lots of bugs, and not really completely stable.. | 00:42 |
| Arwen | don't install the beta of KDE4, it will very probably be broken | 00:42 |
| sub[t]rnl | like, or? | 00:43 |
| sub[t]rnl | || | 00:43 |
| biovore | unagi: check the "advanced bash programing howto" | 00:43 |
| unagi | i dunno, whatever says 'if that doesnt execute' | 00:43 |
| sub[t]rnl | do this command && do this if first was good | 00:43 |
| sub[t]rnl | do this command || or do this one if first is bad | 00:43 |
| biovore | in a bash script you can check the program return val | 00:43 |
| YgorOnLine | Ok, I will to try stay stopped... Thanks for all :) | 00:43 |
| unagi | oh cool | 00:43 |
| unagi | thank you | 00:43 |
| sub[t]rnl | yeah, exit status 0 is success | 00:44 |
| sub[t]rnl | anything else is fail | 00:44 |
| biovore | I think $* or something is the bash variable for last command executed return's val | 00:44 |

| unagi | now i dont have to worry about if im in gnome or kde the script will work | 00:47 |
| brad__ | yea, I've already tryed that one | 00:47 |
| biovore | ln -s <source> <dest> | 00:47 |
| Schuenemann | ln -s irb /usr/bin/irb1.8 ? | 00:47 |
| sub[t]rnl | yup | 00:47 |
| biovore | other way around.. | 00:47 |
| genii | other way | 00:47 |
| genii | biovore: heh | 00:47 |
| Schuenemann | so source is where I want to link? | 00:47 |
| brad__ | it's no good captian | 00:47 |
| brad__ | I can restart the X server, but I don't want to | 00:48 |
| biovore | keypad +/- ? | 00:48 |
| biovore | ctrl-alt-keypad + | 00:48 |
| brad__ | negitive | 00:48 |
| unagi | restarting X is the bees knees | 00:48 |
| unagi | everyone is doing it | 00:48 |
| biovore | wine must have bougured up something.. | 00:48 |
| biovore | or your xorg.conf isn't setup just right.. | 00:49 |
| brad__ | I think I have only one resolution in my Xorg.conf | 00:49 |
| unagi | i have 2 xorg.confs =) | 00:49 |
| Schuenemann | ln -s /usr/bin/irb1.8 irb doesn't work, "irb" still looks for the old entry, which says "irb not installed. use apt-get install etc" | 00:49 |
| brad__ | I knew that was a bad idea when I set it up | 00:49 |
| * brad__ dies | 00:49 | |
| brad__ | hi | 00:49 |
| Schuenemann | dead people don't talk | 00:50 |
| brad__ | wrong channel | 00:50 |
| biovore | Schuenemann: you put irb in /usr/bin or something.. | 00:50 |
| Schuenemann | biovore, it's in ~, where I'm calling it from now | 00:50 |
| biovore | try ./irb then | 00:50 |
| Schuenemann | this one worked | 00:50 |
| brad__ | Schuenemann: I'm not talking, I'm haunting you | 00:50 |
| biovore | your home dir isn't in your path.. :-P | 00:50 |
| Schuenemann | I thought it looked first in cd, then in path | 00:51 |
| biovore | you can set it to do that.. | 00:51 |
| biovore | windows does that.. unix normaly dosn't | 00:51 |
| Schuenemann | hmmm... | 00:51 |
| biovore | have to specify ./ in the end of your path | 00:51 |
| Schuenemann | the windows seems more appropriate to me | 00:51 |
| YgorOnLine | Someone to work with mono here? | 00:52 |
| Schuenemann | anyway, how I locate the other link? without looking for each dir in my path? | 00:52 |
| biovore | well it the unix world.. you don't run things out of your home dir.. you have a directory of binaryies in you home directory thats in your path | 00:52 |
| Schuenemann | hmm | 00:52 |
| Arwen | biovore, well, you could | 00:53 |
| Arwen | or you could not | 00:53 |
| * genii contemplates /usr/bin /usr/sbin etc | 00:53 | |
| biovore | or you install your package in /opt or /usr/local/bin | 00:53 |
| biovore | there is no good rule of tumb here.. | 00:53 |
| biovore | :-P | 00:53 |
| biovore | I ussualy install 3rd party binary only packages in /opt | 00:54 |
| biovore | and software stuffI built go in under /usr/local | 00:54 |
| Schuenemann | where is the other irb link? | 00:54 |
| biovore | ? | 00:54 |
| Schuenemann | the one it calls when I type irb | 00:54 |
| biovore | thats a ubuntu bash thing.. its say that irb isn't installed | 00:55 |
| Schuenemann | ahh... | 00:55 |
| biovore | just like typing tcsh at the prompt will probably say something simular if you haven't installed tcsh | 00:55 |
| Schuenemann | well, I just have to move the link I created, then | 00:56 |
| Schuenemann | ok, I thought there was a link for that before | 00:56 |
| Schuenemann | thanks | 00:56 |
| biovore | irb I think is in the repos if you want apt-get to install it.. | 00:56 |
| biovore | bbl | 00:56 |
| Schuenemann | I did | 00:57 |
| Schuenemann | but the program name is irb1.8, quite boring to type that 1.8 all the time | 00:57 |
| Schuenemann | I created a link called irb and placed on /usr/bin, everything is fine now | 00:57 |
| biovore | alias irb1.8='irb' | 00:57 |
| biovore | fixed :-P | 00:57 |
| biovore | stick that in your .bashrc | 00:57 |
| Schuenemann | an alias isn't a link? | 00:57 |
| Schuenemann | hmm | 00:58 |
| biovore | I got it backwards | 00:58 |
| biovore | alias irb='irb1.8' | 00:58 |
| biovore | alias irb=irb1.8 | 00:58 |
| biovore | type that in bash | 00:58 |
| biovore | then type irb | 00:58 |
| biovore | should run it.. | 00:58 |
| biovore | dir is also alias like that to ls | 00:59 |
| biovore | so you can type dir at the bash prompt and it will list the directory still | 00:59 |
| Schuenemann | why dir isn't coloured? | 00:59 |
| biovore | no color flag | 00:59 |
| biovore | its directly alias to ls | 00:59 |
| bigdad1e | what command to i use to install something with steam? | 00:59 |
| Schuenemann | interesting | 00:59 |
| biovore | ls --color gives a color directory listing | 01:00 |
| biovore | ls is aliased as ls --color | 01:00 |
| biovore | bbl | 01:00 |
| Schuenemann | well, the alias doesn't work | 01:00 |
| Schuenemann | nevermind, I had to close konsole before testing | 01:01 |
| bigdad1e | say i want to install steaminstall.exe in srcds_l what command do i use for wine to install? | 01:02 |
| Schuenemann | bigdad1e, to execute that file, just wine steaminstall.exe | 01:03 |
| bigdad1e | wine: command not found | 01:03 |
| Schuenemann | you have to install wine, then | 01:03 |
| bigdad1e | i thought i just did | 01:03 |
| Schuenemann | what you did? | 01:04 |
| jussi01 | bigdad1e: just go to system settings -> advanced -> windows programs, then it will auto install wine | 01:04 |
| jussi01 | !wine | 01:04 |
| ubotu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 01:04 |
| Schuenemann | I think you need to add a repo in order to get the latest versions | 01:05 |
| Schuenemann | bigdad1e, http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb | 01:05 |
| bigdad1e | nothing will let it install | 01:08 |

| nosrednaekim | Roy_M: hrm... why do you have to do startx? the login manager doesn't work? | 01:36 |
| Roy_M | nosrednaekim, well becase I have logged in via the terminal to do startx, it just goes straight in without giving an option to choose. | 01:37 |

| jawee_ | Smutt: knetworkmanager supports wireless if your card is supported... | 03:11 |
| WeedGrinch | What card do you have? | 03:11 |
| Smutt | i tried that and says that package isnt installed | 03:11 |
| Smutt | well my card worked on normal ubuntu 7.10 | 03:11 |
| Smutt | i dont know wat it is | 03:11 |
| WeedGrinch | Thats wierd | 03:11 |
| Smutt | but it works on ubuntu 7.10 | 03:11 |
| Smutt | i tried knetworkmanager in console and said not installed or something | 03:12 |
| WeedGrinch | Whats the diff between ubuntu and kubuntu? I'm on ubuntu, i just use kubuntu for support cuzz #ubuntu is crowded | 03:12 |
| jawee_ | WeedGrinch: Kubuntu uses the KDE desktop. | 03:12 |
| Smutt | lol faster i think...and much better if you do lots of programming | 03:12 |
| Smutt | just a different look and feel | 03:12 |
| WeedGrinch | :| | 03:12 |
| WeedGrinch | seriusly? | 03:12 |
| Smutt | but its all linux under the hood | 03:13 |
| jawee_ | WeedGrinch: and save it as .sh... you may want to read about bash files first | 03:13 |

| jawee_ | WeedGrinch: This will load whenever you start a terminal | 03:14 |
| WeedGrinch | I just want one that will compile all the .java files in the dir, running "javac *.java" in the terminal will do this | 03:14 |

| biovore | ls *.java | xargs -n1 javac | 03:15 |
| WeedGrinch | thanks bio | 03:15 |

They flicker, too, and the clock has flawed rendering until I mouse over it. My video is also quite slow. I have an NVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra, 256MB, and the restriced driver installed. Does anyone know what might be going on, or how to fix this? | 03:24 |
| WeedGrinch | My friend had a problem with Nvidia | 03:25 |

| Dr_willis | compared to the problems ive seen with ati...... :) | 03:26 |
| kadam | WeedGrinch: I don't think it would be 8) | 03:26 |
| jawee_ | kadam: I believe Nvidia recently released new drivers for some of their cards, which were causing issues. | 03:27 |
| WeedGrinch | :) | 03:27 |
| kadam | jawee_: I don't think so. It was about a week ago I installed, then I did an apt-get update, upgrade, and dist-upgrade to get kde4.0.1. Would that have caused an update on the video driver? | 03:27 |

| M4d_fore | Kadam, where are you looking from in getting that 'A' . And i've always been lead to believe that the glx is necessary for hardware acceleration | 03:43 |
| kadam | M4d_fore: I see the 'A' when I do aptitude-search, by certain package names... I did an apt-get install nvidia-glx-new, and it says it's installed already... But not having hardware acceleration would sure explainthe slowness I'm seeing... | 03:46 |

| _2 | Dr_willis well why did you follow nazca into the broom closet anyway ? | 04:25 |
| AMcBain | And yes, I tried the Ubuntu online tutorial (which installed Totem) and Totem crashes too. I even tried manually mounting the disk. | 04:25 |
| AMcBain | (I have since removed Totem) | 04:25 |
| Dr_willis | Is he still in there! | 04:25 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 04:25 |
| Dr_willis | AMcBain, thats.. weird | 04:25 |
| Dr_willis | check the 'dmesg' output while trying to play the disks. it may be some deeper issue | 04:26 |
| AMcBain | Well, I'm rather unimpressed by the number of times and number of apps that I have managed to segfault on Kubuntu ... makes me sad. | 04:26 |
| Dr_willis | I cant even think of ONE app that segfaults on me | 04:27 |
| Dr_willis | which leads me to think - you got deeper issues. | 04:27 |
| AMcBain | Try Dolphin. I can segfault that. (and of course the aforementioned Kaffeine) | 04:27 |
| Dr_willis | I switch to konqueror for my file manager.. | 04:27 |
| _2 | would me too. i segfaulted one app in my life time... | 04:27 |
| Dr_willis | best place for dolphin is in a can of tuna. :) | 04:27 |
| AMcBain | If you hover over a file, and wait for the tooltip to appear, then drag the file to another Dolphin window, the original Tooltip sticks around. If you enter the tooltip with the cursor, the window the file was originally from segfaults and closes. | 04:28 |
| AMcBain | Way to go Tooltips. | 04:28 |

| Genius16 | heck you could try it without said file. | 04:56 |
| Genius16 | i would anyway. | 04:56 |
| Genius16 | man im drunk. | 04:58 |
| _2 | so is my typin* | 04:58 |
| Genius16 | anyone use compiz-fusion (or beryl or any other composting stuff) with an intel chipset? | 04:59 |
| * _2 actually tried [h,i,n,g,*] where * turned up ^ | 04:59 | |
| sub[t]rnl | i do | 05:00 |
| _2 | most used key on my keyboard is the [backspace] | 05:00 |
| Genius16 | i got an 855gma and everything is like working superb (which is like, strange) except video. when i move a video window it like, turns green. no realtime moving of it i suppose. similar? | 05:00 |
| sub[t]rnl | used too, now I use the x11 video driver, works flawlessly | 05:01 |
| Genius16 | my most used key is alt+space. katapult rules | 05:01 |
| sub[t]rnl | should be an option to use it in most video players | 05:01 |
| sub[t]rnl | i would recommend smplayer. Great gui front end to mplayer. Go into settings, and change the video driver to x11. You'll have all the compositing with the video (real time) | 05:02 |
| Dr_willis | i cant get smplayer to do diddly-poo | 05:03 |
| Dr_willis | it just never wanted to actually play. :) | 05:03 |
| Genius16 | cool | 05:03 |
| Genius16 | sub: thanks. that fix0rs it | 05:04 |
| _2 | Dr_willis diddly-poo ? is that more or less than diddly ? | 05:04 |
| Dr_willis | double less :) | 05:05 |
| Dr_willis | It wouldent even crash for me | 05:05 |
| Dr_willis | heh. | 05:05 |
| _2 | lol | 05:05 |
| Genius16 | i hate it when programs wont crash. | 05:06 |
| Genius16 | once i got so mad i did su rm -R *.* | 05:06 |
| _2 | wont work or crash. me too | 05:07 |

| Genius16 | rofl | 05:07 |
| Genius16 | i used to work on cisco ubr9k series routers. we used to joke about the debug command. | 05:08 |
| Genius16 | it was great if you wanted to flood the memory. | 05:08 |
| Genius16 | maybe its because ive had a few (about 15) but i just wanna go into #ubuntu and answer every "how do i" question with "magic" | 05:09 |
| * _2 goes to watch Genius16 get banned from #ubuntu | 05:10 | |
| Genius16 | its ok. i dont like gnome | 05:10 |
| joe_ | ventrillo fails | 05:10 |
| joe_ | is there anythign i can use to connect to ventrillo | 05:11 |
| joe_ | without using ventrillo? | 05:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | netcat :> | 05:11 |
| joe_ | netcat? | 05:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | joe_➜ might want to look at teamspeak or another alternative | 05:12 |
| biovore | I got ventrillo working in wine.. have to copy a codec from window into your wine drive for it to work. (use alsa in wine) | 05:12 |
| joe_ | i need to connect to ventrilo ppl tho | 05:12 |
| joe_ | i did that | 05:12 |
| Genius16 | joe_ erm no alternative. its closed source bro:( | 05:13 |
| joe_ | does it matter if the package is not for gutsy? | 05:13 |
| joe_ | it uses an ip to connect to ppl tho | 05:13 |
| Genius16 | what package? | 05:13 |
| Genius16 | netcat? | 05:13 |
| biovore | It works under wine with some work.. | 05:13 |
| biovore | ventrillo | 05:13 |
| joe_ | yes | 05:14 |
| Genius16 | netcat was kind of a joke. | 05:14 |
| biovore | need to have a SB-Live or Audigy card (emu10k or emu10k1) cars for it to work though.. | 05:14 |
| joe_ | o lol | 05:14 |
| Genius16 | joe_ but in the future if its a .deb it should work with most or all debian distros. and if its a source package, it should work with most or all gnu platforms. | 05:16 |
| joe_ | ic | 05:16 |
| Genius16 | theres no literal "gusty only" kind of thing. | 05:17 |
| Genius16 | linux distros are kinda like beer. anyone can drink any of them and get drunk. | 05:18 |
| _2 | and hurl | 05:19 |
| Genius16 | only time i hurl is if i drink more than 750ml | 05:20 |
| hemanathan | lovely: hi how are you | 05:21 |
| toothpick | Is beryl apt-gettable? | 05:21 |
| lovely | anyone know where to look for getting gusty gibbon to work? I have been using dapper for a couple years now and had automatix... | 05:22 |
| Genius16 | install it? | 05:22 |
| lovely | yea | 05:22 |
| Genius16 | so whats goin on with it? | 05:23 |
| toothpick | apt-cache search beryl doesn't find anything | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | automatix is less and less needed with each release. it never really was needed. :) | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | You dont need beryl any more either | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | !compiz | toothpick | 05:23 |
| ubotu | toothpick: 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 | 05:23 |
| Dr_willis | !beryl | 05:23 |
| ubotu | Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion. New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz | 05:23 |
| Genius16 | the new "offishal" composting manager in 7.10 is compiz-fusion | 05:23 |
| toothpick | thanks | 05:23 |
| lovely | ok, so how do i get the music files and vid files to work? | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | lovely, install the proper tools/codecs | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | medibuntu has most all the files you need. | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | !medibuntu | 05:24 |
| Genius16 | the strict easiest way IMO to get mp3 support is to run amarok and try to play one. | 05:24 |
| ubotu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 05:24 |
| lovely | Fing duh | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | dosent the video players also ask a similer thing Genius16 ? i forget - its been a while. | 05:25 |
| Genius16 | or yeah, medibuntu is probably a better option. since it'll give you more than just the mp3 codec lol | 05:25 |
| Genius16 | i dunno. i havent installed ubuntu in months. | 05:25 |
| Dr_willis | install 'kubuntu-restricted-extras' package for a starter. it has a lot of the extra bits you will want. | 05:25 |
| lovely | but I am not fluent in the language and thus do not know there names, and have spent the last 4 hours looking for them. | 05:25 |
| lovely | ]thank you | 05:25 |
| Dr_willis | w32codecs from medibuntu , for a start, and that kubuntu-restricted-extras | 05:26 |
| Dr_willis | is about alli need to install | 05:26 |
| Genius16 | i usually install vlc for all the video stuffs. | 05:27 |
| Genius16 | oh and media player connectivity for firefox! anyone ever use that plugin? | 05:27 |
| Genius16 | if not you're missing out. it lets you open embedded video in a player of your choice. | 05:28 |
| lovely | thank you again. I was starting to lose my hair | 05:29 |
| vbgunz | does anybody have any serious idea *why* some update only a few days ago, renders flash completely moot in Konqueror? everytime I close a page with flash on it, I get the nspluginviewer sigsegv popup... this is more than annoying :/ | 05:50 |
| vbgunz | and flash just doesn't work, in any regards, at all except only in firefox | 05:50 |
| vbgunz | I see the topic... wow | 05:51 |
| Genius16 | answering questions in #ubuntu while drunk is easy. conversing about stuff isnt. | 05:51 |
| biovore | no clue.. But I have noticed the same problem.. flash works on konqueror.. but crashes alot.. I think a konqueror security update might have busted flash on konqueror. | 05:51 |
| biovore | !flash | 05:52 |
| ubotu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 05:52 |
| vbgunz | flash on konqueror for me does not work at all, every close of the page with flash causes a sigsegv of nspluginviewer to popup... so it's currently a bit worse than not just working... Its crashing | 05:53 |
| rgreening | use FF until the y fix the issue, or try Hardy Heron Alpha (it works under Hardy) | 05:54 |
| vbgunz | Hardy is KDE 4? | 05:54 |
| rgreening | No... | 05:55 |
| val0 | my x server crashed :( and I need to reconfigure it, what's the cli command to start the config? | 05:55 |
| rgreening | Hardy is 8.04 and has KDE3 and/or 4.. not 4 by default either | 05:56 |
| Genius16 | yeah i wish to god people would refer it to as its version number on the forums instead of its "codename" | 05:56 |
| Genius16 | i just know ive got 7.10.... i have no idea what friggin animal that is. a badger? ferrit? cat? moose maybe. | 05:57 |
| vbgunz | I think a fish | 05:58 |
| vbgunz | glad 4 is not forced, nice | 05:58 |
| Genius16 | i think so too. | 05:58 |
| vbgunz | brb | 05:58 |
| Genius16 | 7.10 the Torrential Trout | 05:58 |
| enzo_ | How do I setup an alias? | 05:59 |
| Genius16 | alias? like a link to a file? | 05:59 |
| rgreening | 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon | 05:59 |
| Genius16 | that reminds me of goatse \ | 05:59 |
| rgreening | And the reason for the Animal Naming goes back to the roots of GNU/Linux and is a Homage of sorts. | 06:00 |
| enzo_ | Genius16: Goatse? Don't wanna know. Alias for a command | 06:00 |
| Genius16 | if its a link to a file the ln command is what you need. if youre seeking a typical "windows shortcut" make it a symbolic link with ln -s (file TO link) (filename FOR the link) | 06:00 |
| rgreening | See O'Reilly books, for example, which do the same for each of their books | 06:00 |
| rgreening | It's a tradition | 06:00 |
| Genius16 | oh im cool with it. i just dont keep up with it. | 06:00 |
| Genius16 | and i wish everyone else didnt either. that, or at least say "yeah im running 4.65 Rabbid Rabbit" | 06:01 |
| Genius16 | instead of "Rabbid Rabbit" | 06:01 |
| Genius16 | need mroe of that stuff that gets me drunk. afk | 06:01 |
| enzo_ | How do I setup an alias for a command? | 06:02 |
| Dr_willis | alias foo=bar | 06:03 |
| enzo_ | Thank you Dr_willis | 06:03 |
| Dr_willis | alias ll='ls -l' | 06:03 |
| rgreening | R > G, so R is newer.. easy :) | 06:03 |
| hydrogen | except | 06:03 |
| hydrogen | wwhat happens after Veritious Veal? | 06:04 |
| enzo_ | Dr_willis: How do I check if its taken? | 06:04 |
| hydrogen | W > V but Warty < Veritous | 06:04 |
| Genius16 | run it | 06:04 |
| hydrogen | I WIN | 06:04 |
| Genius16 | if you want "poo" to be the alias run poo in terminal see if it does something. | 06:05 |
| Dr_willis | enzo_, try the logical thing. type 'alias' :) | 06:05 |
| enzo_ | :) it works | 06:07 |
| Dr_willis | and edit the .bashrc to make the changes permenet | 06:08 |
| Genius16 | Dr_willis: thats no fun... | 06:12 |
| italys | hi all | 06:21 |

| Dr_willis | Hmm | 06:22 |

| italys | but it says libasound is missing even though i installed it | 06:24 |
| italys | s/sound/hand | 06:24 |
| enzo_ | Dr_willis: How do I make changes to .bashrc for permanency? | 06:31 |
| Dr_willis | you edit the file | 06:31 |
| Dr_willis | its just a text file. | 06:31 |
| enzo_ | Ok. ~/.bashrc But what do I add? | 06:32 |
| * Daisuke_Ido blinks | 06:33 | |
| Genius16 | ad alias foo=poo | 06:33 |
| Dr_willis | What did you use.. :) | 06:33 |
| Genius16 | anywhere really. but keep it neat cause thats the programmers way or something. | 06:33 |
| Dr_willis | mine has example alias lines in it allready | 06:33 |
| enzo_ | alias dvdmount='sudo mount -o loop -t udf' | 06:34 |
| Genius16 | i guess if you want your alias to be read and parsed first put it in the beginning. though i dont think you'll notice a differenc | 06:34 |
| Dr_willis | # You may want to put all your additions into a separate file like | 06:34 |
| Dr_willis | # ~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them here directly. | 06:34 |
| Genius16 | Dr_willis: what do they know? right? | 06:34 |
| Dr_willis | there are 6 example alias's in my .bashrc | 06:35 |
| Genius16 | enzo_: thats the line you want to put in to make it perm. | 06:35 |
| Dr_willis | Its so obvious its hidden! :) | 06:36 |
| Genius16 | ok. im "the room is spinning" drunk. | 06:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Genius16: you still have a way to go before my favorite phase of drunkenness | 06:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | "the room is staying still, but the rest of the universe is spinning" | 06:45 |
| Genius16 | oh man im an alcoholic | 06:46 |
| Genius16 | im not effing up my typing after drinking 3/4 a fifth of vodka | 06:46 |
| Genius16 | i think i pass out at that point though. i dont think the universe has ever spun for me (not with booze anyway!) | 06:47 |

| ahmos | Hi everybody,can someone help me compilling superkaramba plz?! | 07:02 |
| Jucato | ahmos: why compile it? just install it from Add/Remove programs | 07:06 |
| ahmos | I had ..but it seems an old version and I can't install themes like liquid weather | 07:07 |
| Jucato | there isn't any new version of Superkaramba for the past.. um... 2 years | 07:07 |
| ahmos | !! | 07:08 |
| Jucato | !info superkaramba | 07:08 |

| Jucato | well, the "version" is bumped by new KDE releases. but it's still the same basically. | 07:09 |
| ahmos | ok I opened the superkaramba i already installed,then clicked new stuf then i choosed the liquid weather | 07:09 |
| Jucato | see http://netdragon.sourceforge.net/ssuperkaramba.html | 07:09 |
| ahmos | but i can't open it ,so how or from where | 07:09 |
| Jucato | it should be listed in the Superkaramba window that lists installed themes. double click on it to run it | 07:10 |
| ahmos | no it is not. only new stuff and open local theme | 07:12 |
| Jucato | then liquid weather might not have downloaded or installed correctly | 07:12 |
| Jucato | not really familiar with superkaramba anymore... but I'm 100% sure that there is no new version. so you don't need to compile | 07:13 |
| ahmos | ok no problem...but thank u very much for your help ;) | 07:13 |
| ahmos | yes it is working with other themes | 07:14 |
| mendred | ahmos: as far as i know, liquid weather needs to be downloaded and installed manually | 07:22 |
| ahmos | ok mendred.thank you | 07:25 |
| mendred | ahmos: wc | 07:25 |
| ahmos | mendred: yes it worked after installing manually.. ;) | 07:39 |
| mendred | ahmos: cool :) | 07:39 |

| hyper_ch | Jucato: that was only a short glimpse into this channel ;) because of a hardy issue | 08:39 |
| Jucato | :P | 08:39 |
| hyper_ch | issue remains but there's a workaround... | 08:40 |

| === chrome_ is now known as chrome2 | ||
| chrome2 | howdy! | 08:44 |
| Voyage_ | i want to use a proxy for every protocol and port, specially for 80 and 8080 for all applications. how can i setup it? | 08:48 |
| Voyage_ | i have the proxy ip | 08:49 |
| hyper_ch | Jucato: is it true that when you hit 3500 beans on uuforums that you then can set yourself a custom title? | 08:54 |
| Jucato | custom title? dunno | 08:54 |
| hyper_ch | Jucato: I thought you'd know ;) | 08:56 |
| Jucato | you thought wrong :) | 08:56 |
| * Jucato is not big on ubuntuforums | 08:56 | |
| hyper_ch | Jucato: I hardly do | 08:56 |
| hyper_ch | Jucato: I mean I rarely do *g* | 08:56 |
| Jucato | :P | 08:57 |
| hyper_ch | Jucato: why aren't you big on uuforums? | 08:57 |
| Jucato | coz I'm not. does it need to have a reason? :D | 08:57 |
| hyper_ch | yes ;) | 08:57 |
| Jucato | probably biggest reason is that I'm relatively inactive there :) | 08:58 |
| hyper_ch | so, which hardy shall I use... the beautiful Xubuntu, the integrated kubuntu or the default ubuntu? ^^ | 08:58 |
| [ifr0g] | hyper_ch, The Beautiful Integrated Kubuntu :) | 08:59 |
| Jucato | hm.. lemme see, you're in #kubuntu, so I'd recommend Kubuntu... and then direct you to #ubuntu+1 :) | 08:59 |
| hyper_ch | Jucato: why isn't there a #kubuntu+1 | 08:59 |
| Jucato | there's hardly a need for it (for now) | 09:00 |
| hyper_ch | ^^ | 09:00 |
| hyper_ch | I still wonder why the devs screwed up my dvd drive in hardy ;) | 09:00 |
| Jucato | ask them. in #ubuntu+1 :D | 09:01 |
| hyper_ch | the kernel devs are not in there ;) | 09:01 |
| hyper_ch | but the bug is confirmed and assigned to them | 09:02 |
| hyper_ch | but they didn't set a priority yet :( | 09:02 |
| Jucato | #ubuntu-kernel :D | 09:02 |
| hyper_ch | and btw, why are you so early online? | 09:02 |
| Voyage_ | how can i use a proxy for downloads by adept package manager? | 09:02 |
| Jucato | hyper_ch: because it's 17:00 here | 09:03 |
| hyper_ch | Voyage_: route the port that is being used by apt through a proxy | 09:03 |
| hyper_ch | Jucato: oh :) | 09:03 |
| Lynoure | hmm | 09:05 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: mhhhmmm | 09:05 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: just trying to figure out what's been going on :) | 09:06 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: not much | 09:06 |
| * Lynoure is not big on any forums either | 09:06 | |
| hyper_ch | the forums is great ;) | 09:06 |
| Lynoure | Give me Usenet over forums any day :) | 09:06 |
| hyper_ch | HELP NEEDED ^^ | 09:06 |
| hyper_ch | Big question: How do I actually backup the private and public keys in KGPG? | 09:07 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: just like you back up anything else... just keep it off nasties' hands | 09:07 |
| chrome2 | OMG I have flash working! | 09:08 |
| chrome2 | well that was painless. ish. | 09:08 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: normally the files are in .gnupg, I think | 09:08 |
| chrome2 | guys, whats the easiest way to get all the beryl bling working? | 09:08 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: there must be some other way than plainly copying the files | 09:08 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: you can use any tool you'd normally use for backups, keep, dirvish, tar, whatever | 09:09 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: I only see the option to export the public keys | 09:09 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: in kgpg | 09:09 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: yeah, but tell someone who doesn't like the cli to use it | 09:10 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: if you backup your home like you ought to, it's probably already in your backups | 09:10 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: keep is all gui. | 09:10 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: but how to do it in kgpg? | 09:10 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: If I answer that, next you want to know how to backup firefox settings from inside firefox | 09:10 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: that would be great ;) | 09:11 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: if you are serious, ask the people in #kpgp, but I bet there is no way to do complete backups of the data within kgpg | 09:12 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: that sux :) | 09:13 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: to me it just makes sense to have comprehensive backup solution somewhere, and not partials in every app | 09:13 |

| hyper_ch | Lynoure: can you import those into gpg on windows then? | 09:16 |

| Lynoure | hyper_ch: but there is Import key... as well | 09:17 |

| gyaresu | Hey. I noticed KDE4 is out properly(?). If I just add the "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu gutsy main" to my sources.list is it really just a matter of installing kde4-core? Unsupported etc. I'm very experienced but thought it wise to ask. | 09:20 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: I really don't use Microsoft Windows much, certainly not for encryption | 09:21 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: well, at some places your just forced to use it | 09:21 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: if there is kgpg for MS Win, the format should be the same, after all, gpg is pretty standard now | 09:21 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: Joys of being an entrepreneur, this :) | 09:21 |
| hyper_ch | Lynoure: the joys of not having my bar's exam yet and being required to do the internship | 09:22 |
| Lynoure | hyper_ch: they key format is so standard that no matter what you use for gpg, it should be able to import your public and private key | 09:23 |

| Maxim000 | Opera is proprietary... | 11:54 |
| Maxim000 | why u don't like FF? | 11:54 |
| pinepain | Thecks: about what | 11:56 |
| Thecks | The fact it works fine in 9.5 but not 9.25 | 11:56 |

| walmik | hi.. i ve just installed nvidia drivers using Envy on my compaq pressario laptop. Can anyone please tell me how I can change the resolution . All my earlier attempts ended in reinstalling kubuntu... pls help | 12:02 |
| walmik | i have installed kubuntu over 5 times already | 12:02 |
| walmik | in the same day! | 12:02 |
| walmik | i can come some other time if everyones busy | 12:03 |
| nibbe | Whenever I try to access my 2nd HDD it sais "Permission Denied". why? This just came all of a sudden, it's never acted like this before | 12:03 |
| pinepain | walmik: have u tried system settings??? | 12:03 |
| pinepain | nibbe: chek permission | 12:04 |
| walmik | pinepain: i did | 12:04 |
| walmik | pinepain: it has max 800 x 600 | 12:04 |
| walmik | pinepain: when i try the other options, my machine doesnt boot as it gets stuck on a loop with a microcode error and i reinstall kubuntu | 12:04 |
| pinepain | walmik: wow. nvidia rulez, last time i've install its driver i got kernel panic =) | 12:05 |
| nibbe | pinepain: how? | 12:05 |
| pinepain | nibbe: ls -LA [here ur mount dir] | 12:05 |
| walmik | pinepain: any idea how i can run at 1280 x 800? i really dont want to go back to vista | 12:06 |
| pinepain | nibbe: on my pc it looks like ls -lA /media | 12:06 |
| walmik | pinepain: i even get the nvidia logo on startup | 12:06 |
| im-a-n00b | hey all, does anyone know what "error receiving uevent message: no buffer space available" means? | 12:06 |
| pinepain | walmik: yuppp. nvidia haz us all =). do u really need nvidia driver? i don't use any nvidia driver and everythin works! | 12:07 |
| RogueJediZero | pinepain: glxgears too? | 12:08 |
| walmik | pinepain: i really dont need it but then how do i get 1280x800 resoultiuon? | 12:08 |
| pinepain | RogueJediZero: yeah, but weeeeeeery slow =) | 12:09 |
| RogueJediZero | pinepain: Well, there you go. That's one reason why you'd be advised to get the driver. | 12:10 |
| pinepain | walmik: dunno. if there is no such resolution in settings then try xorg.conf, it works for me on old mandrake with CRT monitor | 12:10 |
| pinepain | RogueJediZero: but it better than ugly green logo on startup | 12:11 |
| pinepain | walmik: BTW, what modes are there in setting | 12:11 |
| RogueJediZero | pinepain: You can turn that off. I'd have to look up how exactly, but you can | 12:11 |
| walmik | pinepain: max is 800x600. when i change the hardware settings i can increase this but i end up not beiing able to login agian | 12:12 |
| pinepain | RogueJediZero: =), last time when i tried to install official driver i got kernel panic =)) | 12:12 |
| RogueJediZero | pinepain: Whoa. Then I understand your reluctance | 12:14 |
| walmik | hasnt anyone faced a problem with nvidia or basic resolition | 12:15 |
| RogueJediZero | pinepain: Where did you get the driver anyway? | 12:15 |
| pinepain | walmik: that sux. but i've find that win 1024x768 is not equal linux 1024x768 | 12:15 |
| nosrednaekim | eh? | 12:15 |
| nosrednaekim | pinepain: how so? | 12:15 |
| pinepain | RogueJediZero: actually now i dont use any external driver. it seems X works not bad without it | 12:16 |
| pinepain | nosrednaekim: dunno. i had manually config nvidia driver in win to get nice pic | 12:17 |
| nosrednaekim | pinepain: ah..ok | 12:18 |
| im-a-n00b | hey all, does anyone know what "error receiving uevent message: no buffer space available" means? | 12:18 |
| nosrednaekim | im-a-n00b: are you running out of RAM? and where was that message from? | 12:18 |
| pinepain | im-a-n00b: sry, but did u tried google it? | 12:18 |
| pinepain | nosrednaekim: imho, it something with HW | 12:19 |

| pinepain | im-a-n00b: what is ur swap size | 12:20 |
| im-a-n00b | nosrednaekim: i havent noticed any.. | 12:20 |
| im-a-n00b | nosrednaekim: i just dont want it to die on me when i least expect it... swap is also about a gig (1300 mb) | 12:21 |
| nosrednaekim | im-a-n00b: then I wouldn't worry about it. | 12:22 |

| im-a-n00b | pinepain: yeah.. i just checked the link.. ive seen that page... random solutions.. and no real specifics on the problem itself | 12:25 |
| im-a-n00b | been to launchpad too | 12:25 |
| im-a-n00b | at one point someone said it was a kernel error.. .but it would be happening in other distros if that was the case right? | 12:26 |
| nibbe | how do I get back to the standard Kubuntu theme? (havent used this computer in a loooong time :-P) | 12:26 |

| nosrednaekim | hola: it should be.... | 12:30 |
| nosrednaekim | if you can get out with apt. | 12:30 |
| pinepain | !flash | 12:32 |

| deepfreez | Hi, i install kde4 and i have a problem with XMMS >> http://pastebin.ca/897291 , i running kubuntu desktop | 12:33 |
| Dr_willis | i would suggest using somthing other then xmms. its gotten a bit out of date. and has a lot of 'quirks' | 12:34 |
| Dr_willis | bmpx is a nice player. | 12:34 |
| hansjd | what is the best multimedia player for kubuntu (also versatile) | 12:34 |
| Dr_willis | depends on what you want. :) | 12:35 |
| nosrednaekim | hansjd: I would of course say amarok :) | 12:35 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: the same | 12:35 |
| hansjd | Dr_willis: mostly for video | 12:35 |
| Dr_willis | i tend to use bmpx, or mirro, or different players depending on the task. | 12:35 |
| nosrednaekim | hola: but you can talk on IRC? | 12:35 |
| Dr_willis | for video i tend to use vlc. | 12:35 |
| nosrednaekim | hansjd: for video, use vlc | 12:36 |
| hansjd | vlc... thanx | 12:36 |
| deepfreez | ok | 12:36 |
| Dr_willis | you can even get anduse vlc under windows :) | 12:36 |
| hola | now im on host | 12:37 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: hai i try on client? | 12:37 |
| hansjd | btw... is there anything that can play wmv... | 12:37 |
| Dr_willis | depends on the codec of the wmv, | 12:37 |
| nosrednaekim | hola: oh... this is from within a virtualmachine? | 12:37 |
| walmik | pinepain: hi... the resolution problem is solved | 12:37 |
| Dr_willis | Its alll about the codecs :) | 12:38 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: yes | 12:38 |
| nosrednaekim | hola: what? | 12:38 |
| hansjd | rephrase my question... what codec do i need | 12:38 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: the problem is on virtual machine | 12:38 |
| Dr_willis | a wmv file can be any of a dozen codecs... | 12:38 |
| Dr_willis | !w32codecs | 12:39 |
| ubotu | The Win32 codecs are available from the Medibuntu repositories (see « /msg ubotu medibuntu »), and for releases prior to Gutsy, also at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages | 12:39 |
| jpatrick | !info libxine1-ffmpeg | hansjd | 12:39 |
| ubotu | hansjd: libxine1-ffmpeg (source: xine-lib): mpeg related plugins for libxine1. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.7-1ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 435 kB, installed size 908 kB | 12:39 |
| nosrednaekim | hola: oh.. that makes it even harder, I'd say ask in the channel of your virtual machine. | 12:39 |
| walmik | hi all... in IE a zipped folder is not getting downloaded but the same zipped file can be downloaded. The file is inside Flash linked with getURL,, can anyone pls help in this matter? | 12:39 |
| pinepain | walmik: man! cool. how do u solve it? | 12:39 |
| walmik | pinepain: well it was kinda foolish of me... i had used Envy to install the driver and it had created a Nvidia control panel which was in Settings | 12:40 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: i have 2 virtual machine, only one have this problem | 12:40 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. I have to wonder how a zipped 'folder' is different from a ziped file. they would both be whatever.zip files. | 12:40 |
| walmik | pinepain: thanks for ur help anyways | 12:40 |
| pinepain | walmik: and IE == m$ internet explorer? | 12:41 |
| walmik | Dr_willis: ya thats right.. any idea wat cud be making IE treat it differently | 12:41 |
| walmik | pinepain: IE is internet explorer | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | walmik, its ie... I dont know or use ie. :) | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | use a download manager to grab it ifyou want it badly i guess. | 12:42 |
| pinepain | man ie? lol | 12:42 |
| walmik | Dr_willis: neither do i but all the sites have to confirm to all the browsers | 12:42 |
| pinepain | u use ie in win or in linux? | 12:42 |
| monte48lowes | I have to use IE at work. I came in late.. what's the question? | 12:43 |
| walmik | pinepain: i know wat u mean but then the client demands that all the site my company does must load in all browsers | 12:43 |
| Dr_willis | how can a zipped folder be any different from a zipped file.. zip files can contain foldera and files. | 12:43 |
| walmik | pinepain: i use it one of my machines just for testing | 12:43 |
| walmik | Dr_willis: i dont want any file... i have to just make it availabl for all users to download it from a site i m working on | 12:44 |
| Dr_willis | walmik, somthing is not making sence here. I dont see how a zip file with just a folder or 2 in it. could be treated differently then a zip file with a file or 2 in it. | 12:45 |
| taras | i need help with sound in kubuntu | 12:45 |
| Dr_willis | Unless the browser is some how opening the zip files. | 12:45 |
| walmik | Dr_willis: ya its the same.... | 12:45 |
| pinepain | taras: ru? | 12:45 |
| monte48lowes | taras: have you had sound working at all? | 12:45 |
| walmik | Dr_willis: i suppose its a recent bug which has popped up | 12:46 |
| walmik | Dr_willis: coz the same link worked well earlier | 12:46 |
| taras | im half ruussian and half ukranian, and the sound does not work at all | 12:46 |
| pinepain | walmik: is it so neccessary to use flash at all? | 12:47 |
| walmik | pinepain: its a flash website, hence its a must | 12:47 |
| monte48lowes | taras: what sound card does your computer have? | 12:47 |
| pinepain | taras: а что именно у тебя не получается? | 12:47 |
| Jucato | !ru | 12:48 |
| ubotu | Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 12:48 |
| taras | i have an integrated sound card on an old intel motherboard | 12:48 |
| walmik | pinepain: is there any other place i can ask this question... just like this one helps people discussing kubuntu | 12:48 |
| walmik | pinepain: maybe another server or someting | 12:48 |
| taras | pinepain; im terrible at reading, i can olny speak | 12:49 |
| monte48lowes | taras: do you have any volume control from the taskbar icon? | 12:49 |
| pinepain | walmik: actually i cant understand whats ur problem with files | 12:49 |
| taras | yes, the volume is up and everything | 12:50 |
| taras | i just had a huge leap from windoews xp to kubuntu, so i have no idea what im doing | 12:50 |
| monte48lowes | ok. Alt-F2 > konsole > <Enter> | 12:50 |
| monte48lowes | taras: this will open a terminal, or you can use the menu | 12:51 |
| walmik | pinepain: thats ok.. its nice of u to show this much concern anyways... is ther another server or channel where i can discuss this... i mean the way i logged in here, can i login elsewhere from here as wekk | 12:51 |
| taras | you could just say open up konsole | 12:51 |
| monte48lowes | true | 12:51 |
| taras | im not that new | 12:51 |
| monte48lowes | lol | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | You can never tell in this channel. :) | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | over heard last night.. "ok how to i cd /home/Desktop ?" | 12:52 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 12:52 |
| taras | actually i have a load of problems i cant fix | 12:52 |
| monte48lowes | taras: type alsamixer | 12:52 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: solved | 12:52 |
| nosrednaekim | hola: sweet,how did you fix it? | 12:53 |
| pinepain | walmik: actually u should search on freenode ... or google it. dunno. all problems i had i've solve with manuals | 12:53 |
| taras | ok | 12:53 |
| monte48lowes | this will open 'alsamixer'. check for any volume controls that are not turned up | 12:53 |
| walmik | pinepain: is freenode inside Konversaation | 12:53 |
| monte48lowes | taras: use <Tab> to go through all the pages | 12:53 |
| nosrednaekim | Dr_willis: lol | 12:53 |
| taras | ok. everything is up or almost all the way up | 12:54 |
| pinepain | walmik: emmm.. freenode is a irc server. and konversation is a client | 12:54 |
| nosrednaekim | walmik: koversation generally connects to freenode by default | 12:54 |
| monte48lowes | is anything muted? | 12:54 |
| deepfreez | How i can add "alsa" for Amarok :| | 12:54 |
| pinepain | walmik: press F5 to get chanal list tab | 12:54 |
| walmik | nosrednaekim: ok | 12:54 |
| walmik | pinepain: i ll try this | 12:55 |
| taras | a few things are muted, but nothing that looks important | 12:55 |
| taras | like surround and mics | 12:55 |
| monte48lowes | try unmuting everything, one at a time | 12:55 |
| monte48lowes | those can be tricky, you never know what it's going to do | 12:56 |
| taras | ic | 12:56 |
| monte48lowes | taras: please verify the speakers are plugged into the correct jack and power is available to them | 12:57 |
| monte48lowes | taras: during troubleshooting it's good to remember Occam's Razor | 12:58 |
| kaminix | Anyone else having problems installing the new Medibuntu Skype package? | 12:58 |
| taras | yes, stereo is plugged in, to a reciever that powers speakers | 12:58 |
| taras | and whats occams razor? | 12:59 |
| monte48lowes | the simplest answer is usually the correct one | 12:59 |
| nosrednaekim | cept its not spelled "razor"... | 12:59 |
| nosrednaekim | ;) | 12:59 |
| nosrednaekim | (I don't think) | 12:59 |
| monte48lowes | google it... :P | 13:00 |
| sergey | hello! Sorry, anyone know how to switch off scan mirrors at the end Ubuntu installation? | 13:00 |
| pinepain | sergey: there is a few install modes | 13:00 |
| taras | i nothing seems to be working | 13:01 |
| monte48lowes | don't lose hope | 13:01 |
| taras | the test sound in the sound system options doesnt make sound, and youtube videos dont make sound | 13:01 |
| kaminix | Where can one vote for the Kubuntu homepage mockups? | 13:01 |
| nosrednaekim | sergey: yeah, disconnect(or disable) your network | 13:02 |
| pinepain | sergey: in the beginig try to press esc a few times and play with settings there, AFAIR, there is something like questions iportantce level | 13:02 |
| taras | whatever, forget sound, its not important right now | 13:02 |

| monte48lowes | taras: what other problems are you dealing with | 13:02 |
| kaminix | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55330/ <--- Any ideas of how to solve this? | 13:02 |
| pinepain | nosrednaekim: will not work. installer will try to scan mirriows even there is no connection at all =)) | 13:03 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: it was a resolv.conf access file problem | 13:03 |
| taras | i have to figure out other problems, hold on | 13:03 |

| nosrednaekim | hola: ah,ok | 13:04 |
| taras | i cant open up my external NTFS hard drive even after installing NTFS config | 13:04 |
| Dr_willis | taras, you did run the ntfs-config program? not just isntalled it? :) | 13:04 |
| taras | wait what, i thought it does that automatically | 13:04 |
| hola | nosrednaekim: thanks | 13:04 |
| taras | how do i run it? | 13:04 |
| Dr_willis | sudo ntfs-config :) | 13:04 |
| nosrednaekim | kaminix: try uninstalling skype first.... it might spit out some more useful messages | 13:05 |
| monte48lowes | taras: NTFS is not cleanly unmounted by windows during some shutdowns, connect the drive to a windows machine and cleanly unmount it. | 13:05 |
| pinepain | nosrednaekim: wow! on my expirience it tried =) | 13:05 |
| kaminix | nosrednaekim: aptitude remove or purge? | 13:05 |
| taras | i have one cumputer, this used to have windows | 13:05 |

| taras | thats the error i got | 13:10 |
| taras | i shouldve googled that | 13:10 |

| pinepain | SUXXXXXXXXXX, flash 7 works perfect in konqueror, flash 9 pluggin - nspluginviewer SIGTERM | 13:10 |
| Dr_willis | Unles sof course its was lalready mounted. | 13:10 |
| monte48lowes | taras: good luck, I will check back later. I have to go | 13:10 |
| taras | its not mounted, i cant get into it, but im pretty sure it wasnt un mounted from windows, unless it umnounts at shutdown | 13:12 |
| Dr_willis | windows? its possible its been tagged as being needed to be checked by windows. | 13:12 |
| Dr_willis | in that case you could try to mount it from the terminal, and see if any erorrs print out | 13:12 |

| BenPA | hi all ... can someone point me to why smart package manager does not sync apt-sources in Gusty under kubuntu | 13:46 |
| jaguilera | hi all, so it seems the konq+flash issue is resolve on kde's svn (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132138) any packager here to tell as when will it be on the repos? | 13:47 |
| pinepain | jaguilera: just use flash 7 | 13:48 |
| jaguilera | is it in the adobe ftp? i'll look it up.. | 13:48 |
| pinepain | jaguilera: dunno, there is dev package, if u want i can upload library | 13:49 |
| jaguilera | pinepain: nevermind, I can live without flash until it gets to the repos (anyway it works in ffox so), but thx anyway | 13:50 |
| Jucato | jaguilera: it should be working in Hardy Alpha 3 already (see the last release announcement) | 13:50 |
| jaguilera | Jucato: mm, that's too much bleeding edge given my current workload ;) | 13:51 |
| jaguilera | I can't afford testing an alpha right now | 13:51 |
| Jucato | either way, you'll have to wait until either you're ready/willing to use hardy (beta or later) or the fix is backported to gutys (if it will) | 13:52 |
| jaguilera | I hope it gets backported eventually | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, it's not a matter of synching wirh sources as much as opening some of the repositories such as the restricted ones , in the sources.list | 13:53 |
| sergey | sorry for stupied question. but how to install glib from Ubuntu disc? | 13:53 |
| === jaguilera is now known as opsiAway | ||
| BluesKaj | !sources.list | BenPA | 13:54 |
| ubotu | BenPA: The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu | 13:54 |
| sergey | thanks | 13:55 |
| pinepain | sergey: apt-cache search glib | 13:57 |
| pinepain | sergey: if there is glib: sudo apt-get install glib | 13:57 |
| Jucato | glib should already be installed by default.. it's a very basic and needed library afaik | 13:57 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: How am I suppose to know if the repos for smartpm or which ever one it is that I need to make sure is opened? | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, in the run program box : kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list ..then look at the deb repositories and make sure any listed are enabled by removing the # in front. Save the file and then do: sudo apt-get update, in the terminal | 14:00 |
| BluesKaj | !medibuntu | BenPA , then you can add these : | 14:02 |
| ubotu | BenPA , then you can add these :: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 14:02 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: thanks, I understand but which one should effect smartpm ... I seem to be getting apt-get but unlike other versions, Gusty shows no links | 14:03 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: oh, ok ... I think that is what I needed to know | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, let me check, hang on | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | aha BenPA , you're trying to install redhat RPM apps eh? | 14:06 |
| BluesKaj | !RPM | BenPA | 14:07 |
| ubotu | BenPA: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 14:07 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: no, smartpm installs with apt-get inside of Gusty | 14:07 |
| BluesKaj | yes but it still is a vehicle for installing RPMs | 14:08 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, smartpm is listed in adept if you have the proper repos enabled/listed | 14:09 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: I am not sure of that but smart or (smartpm) installs in feisty with no problem and syncs apt-get repos to smart's repos | 14:10 |
| Helmer | hello people | 14:10 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, i just found it in adept | 14:10 |
| BluesKaj | !hi | Helmer | 14:11 |
| ubotu | Helmer: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 14:11 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: are you suggesting I should install it using adept? | 14:11 |
| BluesKaj | if it's there, BenPA | 14:12 |
| BluesKaj | I just did...gonna try it out | 14:12 |
| taras | oh i know | 14:13 |
| taras | my sound card doesnt have drivers for it | 14:13 |
| taras | because when i make it do a system error ping, a little beeps comes out of the computer speaker | 14:14 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: per the smart channel help ... if you type ... sudo smart channel --show ... it should show if the repo is sync'd | 14:14 |

| BenPA | BluesKaj: smart can be used the same way in any linux distribution that participates so if I switch or to say Linux Mint | 14:23 |

| BluesKaj | BenPA, linux mint is it a "specialty field " type of distro | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 14:28 |
| nevoeiro | hola: try installing tcl8.4 and tk8.4 ... | 14:28 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: I found one other report of the same issue with Gusty last year that someone reported but there was no reposnse | 14:28 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu | 14:28 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | How do I "fall back" on an application that has been upgraded? | 14:29 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: I am converting others to Linux and that distro is the easiest ... I have it installed on 2 other machines that are dual booted | 14:29 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | for example: I upgraded amarok to 1.4.8 and want to go back to 1.4.7 | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | gnome desktop eh ? | 14:29 |
| hola | gundam_rx78nt1: tl8.4 and 8.5 are already installed. The same for tk | 14:30 |

| gundam_rx78nt1 | it plays and then pauses a split seconed for every 5 to 10 seconds. | 14:32 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | Interrrupting playback. | 14:33 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | I have already updated libxine1 from 1.1.7 to 1.1.8 but it still did the same thing. | 14:33 |
| BluesKaj | gundam_rx78nt1, install, or reinstall libxine1-ffmpeg | 14:33 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | that has already been done numerous times. | 14:33 |

| gundam_rx78nt1 | It was working fine when I had fiesty. | 14:34 |
| BluesKaj | no gundam_rx78nt1 you need the libxine1-ffmpeg pkg | 14:34 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | It all went to doodoo once I installed Gutsy. | 14:34 |

| nevoeiro | ? | 14:35 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | BluesKaj: I already have the libxine1-ffmpeg pkg already installed. | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | gundam_rx78nt1, libxine1-ffmpeg is the the required update for amarok 1.4.8 | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | then uninstall libxine 1.1.8 | 14:35 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | and then? | 14:36 |
| nevoeiro | this is the link containing the answer to hola's problem | 14:36 |
| BluesKaj | you should be good to go | 14:36 |
| nevoeiro | *whatever* | 14:36 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | BluesKaj: if I uninstall libxine 1.1.8, it removes amarok, kaffiene, and the rest of the xine packages... | 14:37 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | and if I do that, how do I install an older version? | 14:37 |
| no1uknow | I'm a newbie... When I reboot, I have certain programs that startup like KTorrent and Terminal Windows... How do I stop KTorrent from opening on Startup? | 14:38 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | no1uknow: go to your .kde directory and look for Autostart. | 14:40 |

| PPSD | pinepain: nono i mean the konsole frontend, i want to click a button on which runs s scripts, and a new konsole (the window program) pops up with some sessions open having executed some commands | 15:53 |
| pinepain | jduppie: any proxies? firewalls? maybe NAT problemm? | 15:54 |
| PPSD | pinepain: i just figured there is a "sendSession" dcop command but sometimes it is accessible and sometimes not | 15:54 |
| jduppie | pinepain: im connecting from home through bluetooth | 15:54 |
| pinepain | PPSD: oh, i see. dcop or dbus will help u, but maybe pass script name as arg? | 15:56 |

| pinepain | jduppie: emm... u probably have some server with bluetooth, do u? | 16:09 |
| jduppie | pinepain: not that i know of. this is a fresh install of kubuntu 7.10. the first thing i did after install was create the connection. is there anything else i should set up first before connecting to the net? | 16:10 |
| jhutchins | jduppie: Usually that's a symptom of either having a proxy configured when you shouldn't, or not having a proxy configured when you should. | 16:12 |
| jhutchins | Over bluetooth though, who knows. Could be lag/timeouts. | 16:12 |
| pinepain | jduppie: dunno, but it looks like NAT | proxy | firewall problemm | 16:12 |
| pinepain | can u connect from other platforms to :80 port | 16:13 |

| ubuntu | If I install this on my HD, can I "update" to 7.10? | 16:17 |
| pinepain | jduppie: and u can surf on win? | 16:17 |
| ubuntu | For some reason the ISO is just not creating the image correctly | 16:17 |
| ubuntu | So can I simply upgrade to it from 6.04? | 16:18 |
| pinepain | jduppie: maybe there some auth on server or some rule (i have a mac rule in my net) | 16:18 |
| jduppie | pinepain: yes i can surf on win. its just kubuntu that i cant. where do you check firewall settings for kubuntu? | 16:18 |

| LamerMan | hi everyone, i've found gdb 7.1 on one of file servers for apt/sources.list, but i'm not sure that the source is reliable enough. Could you suggest me some secure server that may contain the latest version of debuggers, compilers? | 17:19 |
| biovore | gnu.org | 17:20 |
| LamerMan | i mean some server with deb packages | 17:20 |
| LamerMan | not to compile it | 17:20 |
| NickPresta | LamerMan, what's wrong with gdb in the repos? | 17:20 |
| biovore | he wants bleeding edge I think.. | 17:21 |
| LamerMan | i'm not sure that it does not contain trojans | 17:21 |
| biovore | the repos are as secure as your going to get | 17:21 |
| biovore | http://packages.ubuntu.org | 17:21 |
| NickPresta | LamerMan, if you want bleeding edge but you're afraid to use other repos or publicly created debs, you have to compile. | 17:21 |
| biovore | or security.ubuntu.org | 17:21 |
| AMcBain | Nope, nothing to complain about this time. I got my Thunderbird profile to work under Kubuntu. I had to chmod rx permissions to all groups and chown the files to me (may not have been necessary) ... | 17:22 |
| AMcBain | So I'm quite happy. | 17:22 |
| NickPresta | You can always use checkinstall to create a deb for installation. | 17:22 |
| biovore | If you making your own tool-chain for something.. your better of with sources.. | 17:22 |
| LamerMan | NickPresta, i believe there must be some official repositories with such gdb version. on official it's vey unlikely to contain some viruses | 17:23 |
| NickPresta | LamerMan, the official repository of which you speak has gdb version 6.6, I believe | 17:23 |
| biovore | latest gdb from gnu.org is 6.7 | 17:26 |
| LamerMan | i was mistaken, there IS gdb 6.7 in official repositories, but when i perform "apt-get update", i can't see this version in aptitude. What's wrong? :) | 17:26 |
| Dagaka | can I install KDE 4.0.1 of kubuntu-desktop on an normal ubuntu 7.10 install? | 17:27 |
| LamerMan | in my aptitude there is only gdb 6.6 | 17:27 |
| biovore | have to install kubuntu-desktop then kde4 stuff.. but yes.. you can run gnome and kde on the same box | 17:27 |
| NickPresta | LamerMan, in the official Ubuntu repositories, there is only version 6.6 available. 6.7 is not available yet. | 17:28 |
| LamerMan | http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com contains 6.7.1 | 17:28 |
| Dagaka | ok thanks biovore, so once I've installed kubuntu-desktop I just follow the instructions from here: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.1.php ? | 17:28 |
| LamerMan | is it not official? | 17:28 |
| biovore | I think its not in there because is not part of the development tool-chain | 17:29 |
| LamerMan | how could i install it then? | 17:29 |
| biovore | gdb 6.6 vs 6.7 only realy has fixes for sparc and ppc in it.. Not much else.. unless you have problems with 6.6 for some reason.. 6.7 probably won't make a differance. | 17:31 |
| NickPresta | LamerMan, you can install it via this deb file (http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gdb/gdb_6.7.1-2ubuntu1_i386.deb). However, I don't know what additional or changed depends it has from 6.6 (if any) so use at own risk, since your package manager doesn't think you need to upgrade. | 17:32 |
| compaq1 | test | 17:33 |
| LamerMan | NickPresta, thanks, if it can't install it by aptitude i will install it in theis way, but is there really no way to install it correctly? why aptitude does not the 6.7.1 version? | 17:34 |
| LamerMan | why aptitude does not *list the 6.7.1 version? | 17:35 |
| * BluesKaj suspects ultra-caution is LamerMan's philosophy | 17:36 | |
| LamerMan | :) | 17:36 |
| biovore | 6.7.1 is probably in testing | 17:37 |
| LamerMan | biovore is aptitude able to distinguish test versions? | 17:39 |
| BluesKaj | LamerMan, I'm just curious ...have you been "burned" by keylogging or rootkits or ... ? | 17:39 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | BluesKaj: what brought on that question? | 17:44 |
| BluesKaj | Daisuke_Laptop, LamerMan's ultra caution | 17:45 |

| gyakubov | tnx | 17:53 |
| sub[t]rnl | LamerMan➜ not without an exploit. | 17:53 |
| coreymon77 | LamerMan: default installation gives you two accounts, root and your user account | 17:53 |
| coreymon77 | LamerMan: any others you have to make for yourself | 17:53 |
| sub[t]rnl | there is no root account by default | 17:54 |
| coreymon77 | LamerMan: yes, you cant actually login as root unless you enable that | 17:54 |
| coreymon77 | LamerMan: you can only use sudo within your user account (which i think is better personally) | 17:54 |
| coreymon77 | sub[t]rnl: there is always a root accoount, you just cant actually log in as in unless you enable it | 17:55 |
| sub[t]rnl | no, there is an administrative group | 17:55 |
| sub[t]rnl | that a user can gain access too via sudoers | 17:55 |
| sub[t]rnl | !root | coreymon77y | 17:56 |
| ubotu | coreymon77y: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:56 |
| flo_ | does anyone have a little experience with kde4? if so, do you know how to reset the default settings (I tried removing the .kde4 folder but that didn't work) | 17:56 |
| coreymon77 | sub[t]rnl: ive been using kubuntu for 6 years now, i know how sudo works | 17:56 |
| LamerMan | sub[t]rnl, coreymon77 thanks, i've been told that someone have installed squid on my computer. i don't really believe it :) i think he's jocking... there's no squid at all (locate squid), but i'm new to linux, i'm just afraid i didn't configure something that could let it happen (no taking account of exploits) | 17:56 |
| coreymon77 | LamerMan: dont worry, without root capabilites, they cant do anything harmful anyways | 17:57 |
| cafka | how to change apache2 network interface from eth0 to eth1 ???? | 17:57 |
| sub[t]rnl | flo_➜ renaming your ~/.kde4 folder should restore default. (i wouldn't delete it, unless your positive there is nothing in there you need) | 17:58 |
| flo_ | that's actually what I did | 17:58 |
| flo_ | but somehow a new .kde4 folder got created instantly | 17:58 |
| sub[t]rnl | it does, kde creates it | 17:59 |
| sub[t]rnl | you need to restart x afterwards | 17:59 |
| flo_ | yeah, I did that too | 17:59 |
| flo_ | I installed kde4 when it was still in alpha, and I had the problem that the panel at the bottom completely disappeared, and I haven't been able to get it back | 18:00 |

| llutz | have you restarted apache? | 18:09 |
| cafka | llutz, yeap | 18:09 |
| cafka | everything is coz the interface | 18:10 |
| coreymon77 | cafka: wired ethernet and wifi cannot be on the same interface, then neither of them will work | 18:10 |
| cafka | i know | 18:11 |
| cafka | wired is eth0 and wifi eth1 | 18:11 |
| cafka | apache is configured for eth0 not eth1 | 18:11 |
| coreymon77 | oh | 18:11 |
| coreymon77 | now i get it | 18:11 |
| llutz | cafka: what is your "Listen" entry in the config now? | 18:13 |
| cafka | localhost | 18:13 |
| cafka | coreymon77, something to recomend? | 18:14 |
| pinepain | cafka: work around $ man interfaces | 18:14 |
| llutz | cafka: you have to change that to eth1-ip adress | 18:14 |
| cafka | llutz, eth1 and eth0 have same ip :) | 18:15 |
| llutz | cafka: that cannot work | 18:15 |
| llutz | or do you use bridged devices? | 18:15 |
| cafka | no.. | 18:15 |
| cafka | they have same ip. | 18:15 |
| llutz | cafka: read apache-documentation and off course some tcp/ip basics | 18:15 |

| coreymon77 | sudo: you cant come log in as root | 18:17 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: that is disabled by default and is highly not reccomended | 18:17 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: just use sudo | 18:17 |

| coreymon77 | sudo: huh? | 18:17 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: what do you want to do | 18:17 |
| sudo | It is read-only | 18:18 |
| SlimeyPete | sudo: use sudo or kdesu when opening it | 18:18 |
| SlimeyPete | !sudo | 18:18 |
| ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 18:18 |
| SlimeyPete | !kdesu | 18:18 |
| ubotu | In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 18:18 |

| coreymon77 | sudo: and what distro are you using (feisty, gutsy, dapper...) | 18:20 |
| sudo | coreymon77: ? | 18:20 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: are you using feisty, gutsy, dapper, edgy | 18:21 |
| sudo | What is it? | 18:21 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: what version of kubuntu are you using | 18:21 |
| sudo | text editors? | 18:21 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: no, kubuntu | 18:21 |
| sudo | kubuntu 7.10... | 18:21 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: oh, okay | 18:21 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: thats gutsy | 18:22 |
| SlimeyPete | sudo: press alt-f2 then "kdesu kate /etc/modprobe.d/aliases" | 18:22 |
| coreymon77 | SlimeyPete: wrong | 18:22 |
| coreymon77 | SlimeyPete: in gutsy is kdesudo | 18:22 |
| SlimeyPete | oh right | 18:22 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: open a terminal | 18:22 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: and type kdesudo kate /etc/modprode.d/aliases | 18:22 |
| coreymon77 | then type your root password when asked | 18:23 |
| coreymon77 | that will open kate with root privileges | 18:23 |
| sudo | Thanks! | 18:23 |
| coreymon77 | sudo: no problem | 18:23 |
| Tarin | what do i do if i lose my nick pasword | 18:26 |

| Tarin | lol | 18:28 |
| ubuntu_ | Hey, I'm having trouble with my grub | 18:28 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as Kieren1 | ||
| coreymon77 | Tarin: simple as that | 18:28 |
| coreymon77 | cafka: you mean what drivers are being detected? | 18:28 |
| Kieren1 | I've installed Kubuntu over an instalation of Ubuntu and my grub hasn't been updated | 18:29 |
| coreymon77 | Kieren1: kubuntu and ubuntu are not different oses | 18:29 |
| cafka | coreymon77 yes | 18:29 |
| coreymon77 | Kieren1: they are the same | 18:29 |
| Kieren1 | I know but it wont load | 18:29 |
| coreymon77 | Kieren1: just select kde at the login screen | 18:29 |
| Kieren1 | Neither will Windows, which wasn't reinstalled | 18:29 |
| llutz | cafka: check "dmsg" | 18:30 |
| Tarin | are you getting an error when you try to load windows? | 18:30 |
| llutz | cafka: check "dmesg" | 18:30 |
| Kieren1 | Yeah, something about not able to load | 18:31 |
| bmk789 | lsusb wont show my webcam at all, what gives? | 18:31 |
| Tarin | Kieren1: not able to load OS or something to that affect | 18:31 |
| Kieren1 | Yeah | 18:31 |
| rgreening | update-usbids | 18:31 |
| rgreening | then try again | 18:31 |
| Tarin | your bootconfig file is corrupt | 18:31 |
| Kieren1 | Same with Windows and Ubuntu | 18:31 |
| Kieren1 | How do I reinstall that? | 18:32 |
| Tarin | Kieren1: are you using 2 disks or one disk with 2 partitions | 18:32 |
| Kieren1 | 1 disk 2 partitions | 18:32 |
| rgreening | Kieren1: Use a live CD and then you will need to chroot | 18:32 |
| Kieren1 | And 1for swap | 18:32 |
| Kieren1 | I'm on the live CD now | 18:33 |
| rgreening | man chroot | 18:33 |
| Tarin | you may also need a windows disk to access the recovery console and edit the boot config file | 18:33 |
| hyper_ch | where can I find the restricted driver's manager? | 18:34 |
| rgreening | Kieren1: was Grub your boot manager or Window | 18:34 |
| llutz | hyper_ch: install restricted-manager-kde | 18:34 |
| Tarin | hyper_ch:can you get to it via sys settings and then the advanced tab? | 18:35 |
| jan-gerrit | retep94 | 18:35 |
| Kieren1 | Boot manager I think | 18:35 |
| hyper_ch | thx | 18:35 |
| Kieren1 | Not to sure about grub stuff | 18:35 |
| === alx_ is now known as alx1 | ||
| Tarin | Kieren1: well when u booted and it worked what kind of screen did u getto give you choices for booting? | 18:36 |
| rgreening | Kieren1: was kubuntu installed second or did you install windows after kubuntu | 18:36 |
| Kieren1 | rgreening: I installed Windows then Ubuntu | 18:36 |
| Tarin | Kieren1: did it list the kubuntu first then windows under it | 18:36 |
| === opsiAway is now known as jaguilera | ||
| Kieren1 | Which worked, then I installed Kubuntu as a fresh install over Ubuntu last night | 18:37 |
| Tarin | Kieren1: did it list the kubuntu first then windows under it | 18:37 |
| rgreening | huh? | 18:37 |
| hyper_ch | is there a reason why restricted driver maanger won't be installed by default on kubuntu? | 18:37 |
| Kieren1 | It lists Ubuntu, then Windows | 18:37 |
| Tarin | then grub was your boot manager | 18:37 |
| SlimeyPete | hyper_ch: it's a GTK app | 18:38 |
| Kieren1 | Okay | 18:38 |
| SlimeyPete | so it's meant for GNOME, really. | 18:38 |
| llutz | SlimeyPete: restricted-manager-kde a gtk-app? | 18:38 |
| hyper_ch | SlimeyPete: sounds to me like a qt app ;) | 18:38 |
| rgreening | SlimeyPete : there's a kde version | 18:38 |
| SlimeyPete | oh right | 18:39 |
| Tarin | Kieren1: i had the same issue but i cant remember how i fixed it | 18:39 |
| Xbehave | is there a qt equivelent of miro? and is there anyway i can get my firefox3 install to count as firefox? | 18:39 |
| Tarin | but i made sure afterwards i used 2 diff disks | 18:39 |
| Kieren1 | :( | 18:39 |
| Tarin | that way you can remove one and the machine should default to whatever disk is still installed | 18:40 |
| anon32 | Xbehave, yes, when you compile firefox3, add a line in the debian control "Provides: firefox" | 18:40 |
| Tarin | have you googled this yet? | 18:40 |
| Kieren1 | Yeah, tried a few things and haven't gotten anywhere yet | 18:40 |
| hyper_ch | llutz: is the rest. man. not listed anymore in hardy? | 18:40 |
| Xbehave | anon32, i didnt compile it i simply installed the tar, is there a way without compiling? | 18:41 |
| anon32 | err, no. You're trying to cheat the packaging system... | 18:41 |
| llutz | hyper_ch: #ubuntu+1 not hardy here | 18:41 |

| === pepi_ is now known as pep909 | ||
| Tarin | Kieren1: do you have a windows disk? | 18:43 |
| Kieren1 | Yeah | 18:43 |
| Xbehave | anon32 is there a way to tell it to ignore the fact firefox or override it? | 18:44 |
| anon32 | Xbehave, tell what? | 18:44 |
| anon32 | you could make a fake package called firefox (with no files) and install that. | 18:45 |
| Xbehave | ah good idea thnx | 18:45 |
| Tarin | boot from it and when it gives you the option for recovery console go into that and type this "fdisk /mbr" without the quotes | 18:45 |
| Tarin | it wont hurt anything but it may help | 18:45 |
| NickPresta | Xbehave, why not pin the firefox package from ever being installed? http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html (Bottom, pin section) | 18:45 |
| Tarin | there is also a command called fixmbr try that as well | 18:46 |
| Kieren1 | Okay | 18:46 |
| Kieren1 | I'll give it a go | 18:46 |
| Kieren1 | Thanks, i'll let you know how it goes | 18:46 |
| Tarin | just out of curiosity why did u try to install kubuntu over ubuntu | 18:46 |
| Tarin | ok | 18:46 |

| anon32 | .mozilla/firefox/something/somedir | 18:53 |
| llutz | temp-files in /tmp | 18:54 |
| anon32 | the cache constitutes temp files too | 18:54 |
| Schuenemann | it doesn't seem to be either | 18:54 |
| anon32 | what are you looking for? | 18:55 |
| Schuenemann | well, the cache is so small | 18:55 |
| Schuenemann | some pictures | 18:55 |
| anon32 | last I checked, cached files have no extension so it'd be hard to find em either way. | 18:55 |

| Schuenemann | it's not there though... isn't there a directory like windoze & IE with thousands of files? | 18:56 |
| Schuenemann | michaelrob, use apt-get | 18:57 |
| llutz | michaelrob: sudo aptitude install firefox | 18:57 |
| anon32 | yes, in your profile under Cache. But depending on your settings the amount of stuff there will differ | 18:57 |
| Schuenemann | llutz, cool | 18:58 |
| Schuenemann | llutz, but that isn't local | 18:58 |

| pain | yes it says description: Ubuntu 6.0601 LTS | 19:44 |
| llutz | Ralesk: check opensync-documentation and configure your needed plugins | 19:44 |
| velh0 | I need to install ubuntustudio (the one with realtime kernel) in my kubuntu laptop. can anybody help me? | 19:44 |

| pain | codename dapper | 19:45 |
| Ralesk | okies, will do, thanks :) | 19:45 |
| nosrednaekim | pain: ok... if you have the ability, do get gutsy(7.10) | 19:45 |
| michaelrob | probably just slow video because it's integrated but they don't trail in windows | 19:45 |
| Tarin | nosrednaekim: had him turn off show window contents and it works but who really wants to use it that way! | 19:45 |

| nosrednaekim | pain: great | 19:47 |
| michaelrob | right | 19:47 |
| Tarin | nosrednaekim: and he hasnt added any window or desktop customizations | 19:48 |
| nosrednaekim | Tarin: well, the crystal window decorations can be transparent, and it slows things down | 19:48 |
| nosrednaekim | michaelrob: try doing a "glxinfo" and see if you have direct rendering. | 19:49 |
| Tarin | nosrednaekim: he is using 1280x1024 on a 15" lcd with a native of 1024x768 | 19:49 |
| Tarin | vga only | 19:49 |
| anon32 | nosrednaekim, isn't crystal's transparency done the same way as konsole? Entirely in software? | 19:49 |
| michaelrob | how does one do a "gixinfo"? | 19:49 |
| anon32 | michaelrob, glxinfo. And you type that into a terminal. | 19:49 |
| nosrednaekim | erm... you can't use a HIGHER res on a monitor... | 19:50 |
| nosrednaekim | anon32: correct. | 19:50 |
| anon32 | you can, it'll just span or downscale :-P | 19:50 |
| Tarin | right | 19:50 |
| anon32 | or break :-) | 19:50 |
| Tarin | lol | 19:50 |
| nosrednaekim | oh... well, thats probably not good for graphics performance either. | 19:50 |
| Tarin | nope | 19:50 |
| anon32 | and it looks ugly :-) | 19:50 |
| michaelrob | direct rendering = yes | 19:50 |
| nosrednaekim | anon32: hrm... good catch, I'm not sure where the transparency is done. | 19:50 |
| fred_ | how i put the flash plugin in konqueror | 19:51 |
| fred_ | please | 19:51 |
| * anon32 only today figured out how to turn round edges off in Crystal. Yay. | 19:51 | |

| X314 | whats the command to configure X in terminal anyone? | 19:52 |

| mike | Because, should I want to remove that library line a month from now, it'd be a lot better to have it wherever else library paths are defined, rather than remembering "ITS IN BASHRC" (which I wont) | 20:33 |
| === [ifr0g] is now known as rm_-rfv_ | ||
| niall | rdw: http://www.debian-multimedia.org/flashplayer/ | 20:34 |
| JoshOvki | LWATCDR: ok, exit that. Make a copy, and remove everything from the original. Save and restart | 20:34 |
| Csigaa | hi | 20:34 |
| rdw | really? are you on 64-bit? | 20:34 |
| rdw | kaminix: | 20:34 |
| === rm_-rfv_ is now known as format_C | ||
| kaminix | rdw: Wops, missed that part. I'm on x86 | 20:34 |
| niall | rdw: just download the thing in that link ;x | 20:35 |
| rdw | i can see it. thanks niall | 20:35 |
| LWATCDR | okay redstarting | 20:36 |
| rdw | now if only java worked :) :p :/ | 20:36 |
| jfb | IRC question: how do I identify myself in order to join a channel | 20:36 |
| niall | java apps? | 20:37 |
| rdw | nope, java plugin for firefox | 20:37 |
| niall | oh | 20:37 |
| rdw | eclipse works for me allright | 20:37 |
| mike | so nobody can answer that question? | 20:39 |
| LWATCDR | JoshOvki: It has restarted | 20:39 |
| niall | what question? | 20:39 |
| mike | how does one add library paths in kubuntu? | 20:39 |
| mike | besides typing export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/mylib etc before running the program | 20:39 |
| JoshOvki | LWATCDR: has knetwork manager picked up any wireless networks? | 20:40 |
| LWATCDR | Nope | 20:40 |
| nosrednaekim | mike: and besides putting it in the .bashrc? | 20:40 |
| mike | yes | 20:40 |
| mike | as I SAID | 20:40 |
| mike | NO CAPS | 20:40 |
| LWATCDR | And the WAP is about 6 inches from it. | 20:40 |
| mike | UGH | 20:40 |
| mike | sorry | 20:40 |
| mike | as I said | 20:40 |
| JoshOvki | LWATCDR: ok, whats in that interfaces file now? | 20:40 |
| mike | that's hacky | 20:40 |
| mike | and its beyond me why adding it to ld.so.conf and running ldconfig does not solve this problem | 20:41 |
| nosrednaekim | mike: not sure, I suppose you could put it in rc.local and have it be exported at boot. | 20:41 |
| stephen | salut ! | 20:43 |
| Ralesk | llutz: it seems that there's nothing that responds to syncml-obex-client -u on this system :((( looks like I'm screwed with this phone | 20:43 |

| michaelrob | the instructions for the pritner driver i just download says i need cupsys, where do i get it? | 20:46 |
| JoshOvki | lwatcdr: leads me to thnk that the driver isnt installed for it | 20:46 |
| stephen | sudo aptitude install cupsys ? | 20:46 |
| sub[t]rnl | DiceyDays➜ server list -> edit network -> edit identity -> advanced | 20:46 |
| DiceyDays | sub[t]rnl: Thanks :) | 20:47 |
| LWATCDR | It is a thinkpad A32P | 20:47 |
| LWATCDR | A31 P | 20:48 |
| LWATCDR | So I think it has a Prisim card that is is the kernel | 20:48 |
| chind | his anyone here familiar with unionfs? i want to mount '/' with it after i've booted to save changes to a usb stick. i have the following but the files don't get stored for some reason. "mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/media/disk:/aofs=ro none /" | 20:48 |
| nosrednaekim | LWATCDR: lol... just worked on one of them for my freind | 20:48 |
| LWATCDR | So nosrednaekim is the card in the kernel? | 20:49 |
| JoshOvki | LWATCDR: is there a wireless button on your laptop? | 20:50 |
| nosrednaekim | LWATCDR: well, the one I had didn't have a card. but the prism's should be in the kernel..... try running a "lspci" to see what type of chipset it has | 20:50 |
| LWATCDR | No | 20:50 |
| JoshOvki | ok | 20:50 |
| LWATCDR | And yes it is a Prisim 2.5 | 20:50 |
| nosrednaekim | LWATCDR: thats all lspci says about it? | 20:50 |
| LWATCDR | Intersil Corp Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01) | 20:52 |
| yakuzi | Hi all | 20:52 |
| nosrednaekim | ah... wavelan, thats older I think, let me go google that | 20:52 |
| LWATCDR | I could just grab a lan cable and try and run the updates | 20:53 |
| yakuzi | i've a question concerning my logitech MX518 mouse and touchpad on my laptop. I got the mouse nicely working trough the "walktrough" on the forums, but is there a way to check if the logitech mouse is connected? because if i don't connect the mouse, the laptop stalls when booting, if the mouse is connected, it works like a charm | 20:54 |
| nosrednaekim | nah...that probably wouldn't do any good, but it might be helpful if I find something you need to DL. | 20:54 |
| LWATCDR | I also have started to download the kubuntu DVD thinking that it might have more drivers available. | 20:54 |
| nosrednaekim | LWATCDR: it doesn't | 20:55 |
| fivetwentysix | How do I configure firefox to work with Sun Java 6 JRE? | 20:56 |

| stdin | LjL: not entirely, no | 21:00 |
| nosrednaekim | thanks ljl, stdin | 21:01 |

| stdin | LjL: trying to /msg now actually, host is very similar | 21:01 |
| LjL | well many are connected from there | 21:01 |
| mike | So what packages are for making kde look pretty? | 21:01 |
| hydrogen | gnome-base | 21:01 |
| hydrogen | :p | 21:01 |
| NickPresta | !tell mike about compiz | 21:01 |
| NickPresta | mike, that factoid, for Compiz, will make anything pretty and fun :) | 21:02 |
| hydrogen | compiz-- | 21:02 |
| JoshOvki | !compiz | mike | 21:02 |
| hydrogen | and unstable | 21:02 |
| ubotu | mike: 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 | 21:02 |
| hydrogen | and likely to eat children | 21:02 |
| stdin | LjL: no reply, but I'll remove the ban as it wasn't intended anyway | 21:02 |
| mike | compiz is unstable? Is that what you meant? | 21:02 |
| nosrednaekim | LWATCDR: still looking BTW ;) | 21:03 |
| NickPresta | mike, compiz is in development so while it isn't 100% stable (things may break or function incorrectly) it is fairly stable enough for regular desktop usage. | 21:03 |
| LWATCDR | okay I even tried a reboot | 21:03 |
| michaelrob | can you change individual icon sizes in KDE? | 21:03 |
| velh0 | my system just crashed for no reason :( | 21:04 |
| mike | And Emerald does what in relation to compiz? | 21:04 |
| LWATCDR | I could always fall back and try Ubuntu, That is what I am running on my Desktop. | 21:04 |
| nosrednaekim | michaelrob: no, I don't think so | 21:04 |
| nosrednaekim | mike: title bar and window decorations | 21:05 |
| mike | so then I probably want that? | 21:05 |
| nosrednaekim | LWATCDR: its the asme kernel, so it will act the same way | 21:05 |
| LWATCDR | Doing an install isn't all that hard. I just don't want to go back to OpenSuse. | 21:05 |
| BluesKaj | yakuzi, perhaps the xorg file needs some editing like you mentioned in input device/ "configured mouse" but I wouldn't know a command that will turn it off and on automatically when a mouse isn't needed | 21:05 |
| NickPresta | mike, you could say emerald is your theme manager and decorator. | 21:05 |
| nosrednaekim | mike: well, there is also compiz-kde, but emerald is way nicer | 21:05 |
| mike | so then compiz is just the backend? | 21:06 |
| LWATCDR | I had it working in OpenSuse but I really hate yast and it is so cluttered comparied to Ubuntu/kUbuntu. | 21:06 |
| acee1234 | jussi01: i was having issues with video glitching and you told be to do somethng at the command prompt what was that? | 21:06 |
| nosrednaekim | LWATCDR: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4245942#post4245942 | 21:06 |
| jussi01 | acee1234: no, not at the command prompt, when ggrub loads. add noapic nolapic to the grub boot options | 21:06 |
| yakuzi | BluesKaj: well if i would know how to see what's happening when booting, i could see where he hangs (there's an echo line in the bootable lomoco script) | 21:07 |
| BluesKaj | Suse would be ok but the insistence on the yast repos system is it's downfall IMO | 21:07 |
| acee1234 | jussi01: how? | 21:07 |
| nosrednaekim | mike: compiz does other things, such as make windows wobbly, draw a cube of your desktop and many many others | 21:07 |
| JoshOvki | acee1234: when you restart press Esc and then c | 21:07 |
| mike | and emerald makes it so I can minimize/maximize/close? | 21:07 |
| velh0 | how can i recover from a crash without the need of restarting the machine? how can i kill a process when my system is frozen? | 21:08 |
| acee1234 | jussi01: ok thaat gives me the command line | 21:08 |
| nosrednaekim | velh0: you could try sshing in | 21:08 |
| LWATCDR | Great I will try flashing the card. | 21:08 |
| LWATCDR | I have it dual booting and it works under XP | 21:09 |
| BluesKaj | velho , ctrl+alt+backspace will bring you back to the login screen | 21:09 |
| nosrednaekim | mike: pretty much... | 21:09 |
| mike | hmm, okay, installed emerald and compiz packages, and got a theme for emerald | 21:10 |
| bootsmorris | hi all | 21:10 |
| mike | now I will figure out how to turn compiz on :) | 21:10 |

| JoshOvki | acee1234: try google, i cant remember and i havnt got anything to test on | 21:12 |
| acee1234 | JoshOvki: will do thank you | 21:13 |
| JoshOvki | acee1234: type help it might give you some options | 21:13 |

| mike | what is used to change the look of the main KDE menu? (I guess the windows "Start" menu equivalent) | 21:14 |
| JoshOvki | mike: thinkpad A32P | 21:15 |

| mike | but I dont want to buy a new laptop to change the look of that particular menu :/ | 21:16 |
| JoshOvki | mike: http://www.kde-look.org | 21:16 |
| BluesKaj | mike, there are a couple of other menus like kickoff and tasty menu | 21:16 |
| velh0 | how can i recover from a crash without the need of restarting the machine? how can i kill a process when my system is frozen? | 21:17 |
| anon32 | depends how its locked up | 21:17 |
| anon32 | if only X is dead, you can use some kind of remote login like ssh | 21:17 |
| bootsmorris | if x froze ctrl alt backspace | 21:18 |
| velh0 | anon32: like completely frozen | 21:18 |
| anon32 | see if alt+sysrq+b does anything | 21:18 |
| velh0 | can i access it tru the system by ctrl+alt+f8 for example? | 21:19 |
| anon32 | dunno | 21:19 |
| velh0 | and kill the process | 21:19 |
| velh0 | ? | 21:19 |
| velh0 | i thouth linux was a completel reliable system, but it crashes once in a wille | 21:20 |
| anon32 | completely reliable | 21:20 |
| velh0 | all i want to know is what do i need to do to recover the system (like what i do in WIndows, e.g.) | 21:20 |
| JoshOvki | velh0: everything crashes once in a while, besides it probly wasnt the linux kernal that crashed, but a problem inside on your install | 21:20 |
| JoshOvki | *program | 21:21 |
| anon32 | nothing is completely reliable. | 21:21 |
| anon32 | velh0, see if ctrl+alt+backspace works | 21:21 |
| anon32 | if that doesn't try using ssh to login from another computer | 21:21 |
| anon32 | than see if alt+sysrq+s/u/b (in that order) works | 21:21 |
| anon32 | then just hard power cycle | 21:22 |
| velh0 | hell...so what can i do to make it more stable? any help would be truly apreciated :) | 21:22 |
| anon32 | if you have dodgy video drivers, go for a slower or older one that you know works | 21:22 |
| velh0 | anon32: what do you mean by sysrq? | 21:22 |
| anon32 | it's the "printscreen" button | 21:22 |
| anon32 | usually next to scroll lock | 21:22 |
| velh0 | oh! | 21:22 |
| velh0 | im using a laptop | 21:23 |
| yakuzi | BluesKaj: the line where it hangs is this "running local boot scripts (/etc/rc/local)" before that it gives the echo line... so my guess it's the lomoco setting done by boot that causes the problem | 21:24 |
| LWATCDR | Well if nothing else I really need a new battery for my notebook :) | 21:25 |

| Dhraakellian | would the fact that I used the text-mode installer on the Kubuntu LiveDVD have anything to do with it? | 21:55 |
| bmk789_ | Dhraakellian: what filesystem did you use? | 21:56 |
| Dhraakellian | ext3 on / | 21:56 |

| Dhraakellian | using lvm, if that means anything | 21:56 |
| Dhraakellian | hmm | 21:56 |
| * Dhraakellian realizes that he forgot to tell the installer to use sda1 as /boot | 21:56 | |

| === hydrogen is now known as Wasserstoff | ||
| Dhraakellian | actually, not session settings per se | 21:59 |
| Dhraakellian | to save where it starts up and such, I think you'd actually have to make a new profile or something | 21:59 |

| siofwolves | hi, i'm an ex windows user, really into kubuntu atm. the sound volume just doesn't seem as loud as in windows. full volume on kubuntu is like %40 full volume using windows. do i need to alter/set/configure some sound settings? | 22:22 |
| jpatrick | !sound | 22:23 |

| Xdanger | how can i do that?? | 23:17 |
| ahmos | how to fix it more permanantly? | 23:18 |

| hola1 | VBoxAddIF vbox0 user br0 | 23:19 |
| hola1 | llutz: are they correct | 23:19 |
| llutz | hola1: not sure about the last one. i use tun/tap devices in virtualbox. so every VM gets its own net-device | 23:20 |

| hola1 | llutz: tell me what have i do | 23:20 |

| llutz | hola1: are you registered here, i would like to query you | 23:22 |
| hola1 | llutz: im sorry no | 23:22 |
| Agent_bob | activate ipv4_forwarding in the kernel set the default route to the pppoe connection ip and point all the other boxes to that gateway | 23:22 |
| llutz | Agent_bob: does that work with just br0-device in VMs instead of using tun/tap? | 23:23 |
| Agent_bob | llutz that works for normal linux boot systems i don't know about vmware | 23:24 |
| Agent_bob | it's worth a try tho | 23:24 |
| Agent_bob | if the bridge is seemless it should | 23:26 |
| Agent_bob | llutz are we talking a dmz or a hostile net ? | 23:27 |
| Dhraakellian | so /mnt vs. /media | 23:27 |
| llutz | Agent_bob: 1 PC + 1 virtualbox installation on it should share the pcs pppoe-connection | 23:28 |
| Agent_bob | Dhraakellian depends on what you like. i use mnt | 23:28 |
| Dhraakellian | the former for more permanent stuff and the latter for temporary removable media? | 23:28 |
| Agent_bob | llutz yeah that should be easy | 23:28 |
| llutz | Agent_bob: _but_ they should "see" each other in the net, so NAT wouldn't work | 23:28 |
| Agent_bob | Dhraakellian no. mnt for everything that init doesn't mount my openion. | 23:29 |
