| yasahiro | im having a small problem with amarok... | 00:26 |

| anon32 | have you read that? sorry to assume | 00:28 |
| yasahiro | well, i have installed the restricted extras... thats how i got dvd's to play | 00:28 |
| anon32 | hmm | 00:28 |
| anon32 | more specifically, do you have libxine1-ffmpeg installed? | 00:29 |
| Dhraakellian | http://rafb.net/p/8ZkDlQ74.html | 00:29 |
| Dhraakellian | Y or N? | 00:29 |
| Dhraakellian | or does it not really matter too much? | 00:29 |
| yasahiro | libxine1-ffmpeg is already the newest version | 00:29 |
| anon32 | Dhraakellian, are you upgrading ubuntu versions? | 00:30 |
| anon32 | it's probably harmless | 00:30 |
| Dhraakellian | from a sudo aptitude safe-upgrade on a fresh install | 00:30 |
| anon32 | if it's a fresh install, go ahead and hit "yes" | 00:30 |
| Dhraakellian | since adept updater was giving me grief | 00:30 |
| anon32 | yasahiro, try starting amarok on the command line and see if it spews any errors | 00:31 |
| Dhraakellian | oh, and I'd just like to say for the record that irssi proxy totally rocks. (still connected via the laptop, but using konversation on the desktop, where copying and pasting the errors is easier) | 00:31 |
| yasahiro | all that happened was a dialog came up saying amarok currently cant play mp3 files, and gives me an option to install mp3 support | 00:32 |
| Dhraakellian | and I'll stay connected even though I'm about to reboot due to a kernel update in that safe-upgrade | 00:32 |

| anon32 | where's the list of Hardy release goals? | 00:45 |
| Dhraakellian | echosystm: both Kubuntu and Suse let you install KDE4 stuff alongside KDE3. For more help with KDE4 on kubuntu, try #kubuntu-kde4 | 00:46 |
| echosystm | but is it available in the repo? | 00:46 |
| Dhraakellian | not sure | 00:46 |
| Dhraakellian | haven't tried it since some time around beta2 | 00:47 |
| Dhraakellian | not with Kubuntu, at least | 00:47 |
| Dhraakellian | ask in #kubuntu-kde4 | 00:47 |

| nacho_ | hola | 01:00 |
| Ubiquitous | hi! | 01:01 |
| nacho_ | habla alguien en español | 01:01 |
| anon32 | NightBird, that's wonderful... now my ATI setup can be even more broken than it already is. | 01:01 |
| NightBird | yeah... the next kubuntu may be using kde4 by default which comes with it's own set of eye candy | 01:01 |
| PriceChild | anon32, it only turns on for cards not in its blacklist... | 01:01 |
| PriceChild | !cfblacklist | 01:01 |
| ubotu | Desktop Effects are supported on graphics cards that use the default Intel and ATI drivers and the restricted !NVIDIA drivers, except for the following, which are blacklisted due to stability/compatibility issues: Intel 965, ATI Rs480 and Rv350, ATI Mobility x300, x600 and x700 - Join #compiz-fusion for anything not officially supported by Ubuntu | 01:01 |
| * NightBird could be running compiz with his ati card with only minor problems.. | 01:02 | |
| anon32 | mine's not in the blacklist, but it will definitely still crash my system | 01:02 |
| anon32 | so yeah... | 01:02 |
| anon32 | also, according to the specs, it will fall back to using software rendering? | 01:02 |

| NightBird | anon32: I think compiz tries to fire up the gnome interface if it fails | 01:03 |
| NightBird | er... the gnome window manager | 01:04 |
| anon32 | according to the spec, it will call XRender in the absense of OpenGL | 01:04 |
| NightBird | yeah | 01:04 |
| anon32 | that's software isn't it? | 01:04 |
| NightBird | no, XRender requires support from the video card | 01:05 |
| anon32 | hmm | 01:05 |
| NightBird | er... from the driver | 01:05 |
| anon32 | maybe it doesn't fail that much then. Still would like to see it blacklisted for chips using the "radeon" driver though. | 01:06 |
| fivetwentysix | If I install KDE 4.0 can i still use 3.5 ? | 01:06 |
| anon32 | yes | 01:06 |
| NightBird | doesn't the open source radeon driver support aiglx anyways? | 01:06 |
| fivetwentysix | Do I have to do anything special or is the option always available by default on the sessions menu? | 01:06 |
| anon32 | NightBird, yes, but the driver sucks | 01:06 |
| NightBird | it'll appear as an option on the sessions menu | 01:07 |
| anon32 | it randomly locks my system up for example | 01:07 |

| thistle | I can get the card to come up. It will associate the the access point but it drops data like mad. I have been temped to see of the live i386 DVD had the same issue. Could it be the AMD64 build? There is a bug with nearly the same issue that has nearly the same description that has been open for quite a while.

| X9nLinux1 | yeah... like I can find a 1931 comic strip at the library of congress (eventually) | 03:14 |
| X9nLinux1 | what I mean is... it takes a lot to ferret out info sometimes. Not because there is none... but because there is so much to wade through at times before finding whatever item I really wanted at that moment. | 03:16 |

| Negatratoron | Hi-hi | 03:21 |
| X9nLinux1 | Well, Dapper has given me a bit of grief on older iMac, so maybe putting feisty on the G3 tower might work better than the other configuration. | 03:22 |

| Negatratoron | Well, I'll just start spilling the data that I have on the crashes and hope that some of y'all have some idea what's going on: | 03:29 |
| Negatratoron | I have an excerpt from /var/log/kern.log pastebinned: | 03:29 |
| Negatratoron | http://pastebin.com/m6e4d80f1 | 03:29 |
| Negatratoron | The meaty error bit is near the bottom | 03:30 |
| Negatratoron | The computer seems to crash when it's loading big things into the memory... | 03:30 |
| Negatratoron | which makes sense, because an excerpt from the excerpt from kern.log says: | 03:30 |
| Negatratoron | BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 81e040f8 | 03:30 |
| Negatratoron | I really don't know what that means, but it looks like an issue with RAM allocation to my untrained eye :) | 03:31 |
| Negatratoron | I know that it's not a hardware problem, because Windows XP has no problems | 03:31 |
| Negatratoron | The computer crashes regardless of what I have selected as a graphics card driver | 03:32 |
| Negatratoron | And now I'll wait and see if someone has anything to say... | 03:32 |
| Negatratoron | lol | 03:32 |

| ubuntu | i have an ATI radeon sapphire x1650 card and it freezes kubuntu when it boots | 05:10 |
| acee1234 | ive been trough unbunt/kubuntu chanells trying to fix display flickering and was told to disable compositing in my xorg which fixed that issue but upon doing this i killed compiz any ideas i have an ati x1400 | 05:11 |
| biovore | ati == problems | 05:11 |
| ubuntu | so can i get a driver or something | 05:11 |
| acee1234 | biovore: if there was a way to change it in my laptop i would | 05:12 |
| biovore | well there is ATI's driver.. but it sucks.. | 05:13 |
| biovore | some ATI cards are better then others though.. | 05:13 |
| ubuntu | so what do i do | 05:14 |
| biovore | don't do opengl stuff.. | 05:14 |
| ubuntu | you haventy given me an answer | 05:14 |
| ubuntu | XD | 05:14 |
| acee1234 | biovore: lesson dont buy compute with ati in it upon next upgrde | 05:14 |
| biovore | rgr | 05:14 |
| biovore | I get all nvidia | 05:14 |
| biovore | intel onboard graphics work fairly well on linux as well | 05:14 |
| ubuntu | i built my computer | 05:14 |
| ubuntu | and i like ATI very much | 05:14 |
| ubuntu | i have onboard graphics but i also am a hardcore gamer in windows | 05:15 |
| ubuntu | so thats why i need it | 05:15 |
| xRaich[o]2x | ATI released harddrive specifications last year. by the end of the year there should be a complete free driver for a lot of ATI cards. | 05:15 |
| biovore | well don't complain here.. we don;t make the ATI drivers | 05:15 |
| xRaich[o]2x | s/harddrive/hardware | 05:15 |
| biovore | that document was mostly BS | 05:15 |
| ubuntu | im not complaining | 05:15 |
| ubuntu | im asking for help | 05:16 |
| biovore | !ati | 05:16 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:16 |
| biovore | thats about the best you can do.. :-( | 05:16 |
| acee1234 | so x1400 = no comp | 05:16 |
| acee1234 | compiz | 05:16 |
| biovore | basicly | 05:16 |
| acee1234 | joy | 05:16 |
| ubuntu | thank you very much ubotu | 05:16 |
| biovore | compiz requires nvidia or intell graphics | 05:17 |
| ubuntu | ws that so hard biovore? | 05:17 |
| acee1234 | its a bot... | 05:17 |
| Nutubuntu | I am going to have to tar |untar my old ~ directory from an old drive taken from my old box, to my new Gutsy box. I'm concerned about overwriting dot-files or directories that handle kde or gnome stuff (ran both from time to time) ... and I don't know enough to know whether that's a risk. Anyone? | 05:18 |
| ubuntu | what is a bot | 05:18 |
| xRaich[o]2x | ubotu is | 05:18 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about is - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:18 |
| biovore | its a program that responds to commands | 05:18 |
| ubuntu | oh shit | 05:19 |
| ubuntu | my bad... | 05:19 |
| ubuntu | lol this is my first time using linux | 05:19 |

| Nutubuntu | ubuntu - the bot doesn't care :) (I had made friends with a bot in another chan, once, or thought I had -- after all, "he" always said hi to me when I /joined ...) | 05:20 |
| ubuntu | lol i feel like an idiot | 05:20 |
| ubuntu | ok but umm | 05:20 |
| Dr_willis | for starters ya may want to pick a better nickname /Nick NewLinuxDood | 05:21 |
| ubuntu | on that website trhe bot gave me... do i just input the command for ATI | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | To install the ati drivers, you have to install the proper ati packages. The restricted-manager tool should of automated that however. | 05:21 |
| Nutubuntu | Dr_willis: he can probably have mine, I'm going to change it to I-am-SO-stupid-sometimes | 05:21 |
| ubuntu | ok | 05:22 |
| Dr_willis | Of course with ati - a lot of getting ATI to work right.. can be a gamble. | 05:22 |

| theTheme | Hey everyone, I'm trying to relink a torrent with ktorrent, but I can't find where it saves the .torrent file by default, does anyone know where it is? | 08:03 |
| hyper__ch | theTheme: you could search your system - but very likely it's somewhere in ~/.kde/... | 08:04 |
| ForgeAus | hmm time to write out a fesity.iso! | 08:04 |
| hyper__ch | huhu Jucato | 08:06 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ~/.kde/share/apps/ktorrent/* | 08:12 |
| theTheme | I found them, but none of them are labeled...frustrating, they are in a folder called "tor15" for example and inside that folder there are number of files, but none that can differentiate them | 08:12 |
| Daisuke_Ido | yep | 08:12 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it's a pain | 08:12 |
| hyper__ch | that's one reason I don't use ktorrent any longer | 08:12 |
| Daisuke_Ido | hyper__ch: i'm always open for torrent client suggestions, what do you use? | 08:13 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: rtorrent.... ncurses based | 08:13 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: The TPB crew also uses it ;) | 08:13 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: only drawback - it does not have an ipfilter like ktorrent... you have to use iptables for that | 08:14 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i'm a little more inclined toward a more graphical client, just because i'm spoiled like that | 08:14 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: rtorrent is graphical ;) | 08:14 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i said *more* graphical :) | 08:15 |
| Daisuke_Ido | now, if i were setting up a box *just* for torrenting, i would go with something like that | 08:15 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: it's got even an ncurses interface by default and a few wuis | 08:15 |
| hyper__ch | best thing is, it's completely controlable from any ssh connection ;) | 08:16 |
| hyper__ch | (if you don't use a wui) | 08:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | and that's why i would use it for a seed box | 08:16 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: ;) | 08:16 |
| hyper__ch | and it doesn't hog the memory as badly as ktorrent | 08:16 |
| maduser | ktorrent kicks ass | 08:17 |
| hyper__ch | not rtorrent's ;) | 08:17 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: you're strictly looking for a kde app? | 08:18 |
| Daisuke_Ido | actually, i don't even use kde anymore :D | 08:19 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but deluge doesn't like me, and azureus just isn't going to ever touch my pc | 08:19 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: deluge has become fairly popular and transmission will be hardy's default torrent client on ubuntu | 08:19 |
| hyper__ch | Daisuke_Ido: It's been a long time since I looked at deluge and never had a glance at transmission at all | 08:20 |

| hyper__ch | iDivine: however ayisu has compiled a list of kde packages in gutsy.... | 09:11 |
| bidossessi | i'm looking for an app that could take pictures or videos from my webcam. i know of cheese for GNOME, but i need something for KDE. any ideas? | 09:11 |
| hyper__ch | iDivine: http://www.psychocats.net --> install pure gnome | 09:11 |
| iDivine | hyper__ch, Pure Gnome? | 09:11 |
| hyper__ch | iDivine: yes... it will list all the kde packages there | 09:11 |
| tommi_ | The #kubuntu-kde4 channel is dead... Anyone here with experience of KDE 4? I'm experiencing a problem with the sound... | 09:11 |
| hyper__ch | kde4 ist still beta IMHO | 09:12 |
| hyper__ch | bidossessi: kopete has webcam capabilites... maybe there's also an option for recording there | 09:12 |
| hyper__ch | bidossessi: search adept | 09:12 |
| bidossessi | hyper__ch, it's strange to open a chat application to take pics and videos off a webcam. is adept an application? | 09:15 |
| hyper__ch | bidossessi: as long as you get done what you need who cares what an application was designed for? | 09:16 |
| hyper__ch | bidossessi: adept is the kde equivalent of synaptic | 09:16 |
| bidossessi | hyper__ch, common sense cares. something like cheese for gnome is designed especially with that idea in mind. i use gnome myself so iwouldn't know. thx anyway | 09:17 |
| hyper__ch | bidossessi: why wouldn't you know because of using gnome? | 09:18 |
| bidossessi | never heard of adpet, that's what i meant | 09:18 |
| bidossessi | rather new ubuntu user as well. my standard OS is opensuse | 09:19 |

| neville | Ah, thanks alot for that | 09:36 |
| ctx144k | hello all, i wanna change my shell-colors in name@domain: - for that i typed in console the follow code: PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]> ' | 09:37 |
| ctx144k | its runing well | 09:37 |
| ctx144k | but, if i paste that in ~/.bashrc it doesnt work in new shells | 09:38 |
| ctx144k | but other commands like alias la=`ls -la` work well... | 09:38 |
| ctx144k | so my question why PS1=foobar doesnt work | 09:38 |
| sub[t]rnl | ctx144k➜ start a new shell, and do export PS1 to see if its what you want | 09:39 |
| cicero | hyper__ch: sorry. my mouse keeps going crazy like its possessed. | 09:40 |
| sub[t]rnl | export $PS1 | 09:40 |
| ctx144k | ok ill try | 09:40 |
| ctx144k | it doesent work too | 09:40 |
| simion314 | i can't conect to ubuntu when i ping www.ubuntu .com the ip appears there (91.189.94.158) and after 1-2 minutes i get 2 responses from arctowski.canonical.com (91.189.94.158) | 09:40 |
| ctx144k | as root it works well | 09:40 |
| sub[t]rnl | ctx144k➜ whos .bashrc are you editing, roots or users? | 09:41 |
| ctx144k | first root - there i havent any problems... now iam edit the .bashrc from the user - an there it doesnt work | 09:41 |
| ctx144k | other commands work in users .basrc... so i think perhaps something other PS1 willbe load after bashrc - but i havent any idea | 09:42 |
| sub[t]rnl | ctx144k➜ are you using kubuntu? | 09:44 |
| ctx144k | yes | 09:44 |
| ctx144k | 7.10 | 09:44 |

| ctx144k | but i dont bot why | 10:06 |

| sub[t]rnl | :> | 10:07 |
| ctx144k | the loading of .bashrc stops after line 88-91: http://rafb.net/p/TrpqEP38.html | 10:07 |
| sub[t]rnl | ah | 10:08 |

| ctx144k | ah... i understand-- line-endings ^^ | 10:09 |
| sub[t]rnl | well, if you said its not getting loaded below those lines, fix them, or move the PS1 variables before it | 10:10 |
| ctx144k | i pasted that from an under windows created txt-file in ~/.bashrc | 10:10 |
| sub[t]rnl | is English your native language? | 10:10 |
| ctx144k | de_DE | 10:12 |
| ctx144k | utf is disabled | 10:12 |
| ctx144k | hmmm bash_completion willbe not loaded correct | 10:13 |
| sub[t]rnl | well, for some reason in your .bashrc, your running the if -f bash_completion twice | 10:14 |
| ctx144k | i writed in bash_completion in last line follow: echo "1233" | 10:14 |
| ctx144k | as root it works well, i get 1233 on screen after starting a new shell | 10:15 |
| ctx144k | as user after calling source /etc/bash_completion not | 10:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | remove the calling source, it already does that a few lines before | 10:16 |
| ctx144k | ah ok | 10:17 |
| ctx144k | i see | 10:17 |
| momal | Has anyone had any sound problems with alsa since updates of few days back? seem to be getting "snd_pcm_open() failed:-19:No such device" using 7.10 only just recently like since today. | 10:17 |

| dZen|n| | Hello, I have a problem, I have compiz installed on kubuntu gytsy. My window decoration crashes all the time 2-3 timer pr day. My solution is to retstart kdm. | 10:46 |
| neville | Is it the default window manager? | 10:48 |
| dZen|n| | neville: what do you mean with that ? | 10:49 |
| neville | Well, when you start your computer, does it start Compiz by default? | 10:50 |
| dZen|n| | yeah | 10:50 |
| neville | Would changing it back to the default, 2D window manager suit you fine? | 10:50 |
| neville | Compiz is still pretty buggy, and is only really useful for making friends jealous :P | 10:51 |
| dZen|n| | ok How do I disable it, so I can start it manually ? | 10:51 |
| simion314 | hi, i still can't connect to ubuntu.com, restart my internet connection, boot in windows, the ip appears when i ping but the answer is not comming, i can't read forums to try to find such problems, i can see other web pages, this is strange | 10:51 |
| neville | Press Alt+F2, and a little command box should pop up | 10:52 |
| neville | Type into that kwin replace & | 10:52 |
| neville | Then logout and back in, and it should be back to normal | 10:52 |
| dZen|n| | oki thx. | 10:52 |
| dZen|n| | by the way I don't have any friends, im impressing my self | 10:53 |
| dZen|n| | :D | 10:53 |
| neville | Hahaha, same here :P | 10:53 |
| teo_ | where can i find the archives i have downloaded with apt-get ?? | 10:54 |
| dZen|n| | well I am just impressed that kubuntu with compiz don't use so much ram as crappy vista | 10:54 |
| dZen|n| | I am used to use suse, so I am pretty new to ubuntu/kubuntu | 10:54 |
| emilsedgh | teo_: /var/cache/apt/archives | 10:55 |
| neville | I've given Suse a go before, and maybe I'm just biased, but Kubuntu is actually alot easier to use in my opinion | 10:55 |
| emilsedgh | comparing vista to kubuntu isnt good...its like comparing a doll house with a huge building ;) | 10:56 |
| neville | Look, Vista isn't that bad | 10:57 |
| simion314 | hi, i still can't connect to ubuntu.com, restart my internet connection, boot in windows, the ip appears when i ping but the answer is not comming, i can't read forums to try to find such problems, i can see other web pages, this is strange and stupid, why ubuntu? i can't use apt because it can't get to ubuntu | 10:57 |
| neville | I mean | 10:57 |
| dZen|n| | well kubuntu us great, the best linux dist. My friedns at work use gentoo, thet need to compile everything self. A system shouldnt bee so hard to use. We live in a fancy world :d | 10:57 |
| emilsedgh | s/to/with :P | 10:57 |
| neville | It's great for "borrowing" the D3D 10 .dll files for Wine for patch 'n play gaming :P | 10:57 |
| dZen|n| | simion314: ubuntu.com wokrd fine with me, do you have adsl ? | 10:57 |
| simion314 | <dZen|n|>: yes | 10:58 |
| neville | Yeah, Kubuntu is the best :D | 10:58 |
| theunixgeek | How can I get desktop icons to display in Kubuntu, like Computer, Documents, etc? | 10:58 |
| dZen|n| | theunixgeek: right click add to desktop :D | 10:59 |
| Lynoure | theunixgeek: you just add them on your desktop, and they should show just fine. What happens in your case? | 10:59 |
| emilsedgh | neville: i was just kidding, i never tried vista :P | 10:59 |
| neville | Oh, really? | 10:59 |
| neville | Well, it left a bad taste in my mouth | 10:59 |
| dZen|n| | simion314: thoes your adsl link blinks ? | 10:59 |
| neville | Aero is blegh | 11:00 |
| dZen|n| | I have to use vista at my work, my boss would not let me use linux :( | 11:00 |
| theunixgeek | Lynoure: Like, links? | 11:00 |
| neville | He's brave, allowing the use of Vista in productive environment this early :P | 11:00 |

| chanika | any bets on how badly things will break when it's done?;) | 11:13 |
| chanika | also... anyone know even the first thing about connecting to an l2p vpn? | 11:13 |
| Kheops | hmm somebody knows a good fire wall on Kubuntu ? | 11:14 |
| Lynoure | chanika: how you are upgrading? release by release? | 11:14 |
| jpatrick | !firewall | Kheops | 11:14 |
| ubotu | Kheops: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 11:14 |
| Kheops | 10x | 11:14 |
| Kheops | ;) | 11:14 |
| chanika | lynoure: just dist-upgrade, all at once | 11:15 |
| Kheops | i read right now | 11:15 |
| Lynoure | chanika: uh... | 11:15 |
| Kheops | very good documentation | 11:15 |
| Lynoure | chanika: and you cannot wait till hardy (8.04) where that would be actually supported? | 11:15 |
| Kheops | good job boys i use Kubuntu from the Begining | 11:15 |
| Lynoure | chanika: Then my guess is quite many things will break, or at least you'll have to tweak a lot of config files. I'd go for an install and not upgrade if I really wanted to go from dapper to gutsy (and had separate home... or just good backups) | 11:18 |
| Kheops | patrik | 11:18 |
| Kheops | is still free distrubution ? | 11:18 |

| ForgeAus | well you can sudo | 12:30 |
| ForgeAus | but I was already in sudo -i | 12:31 |
| llutz | ForgeAus: you have to export Xauthority before or, of course, use "kdesu konqueror" | 12:31 |
| Kheops | hmm | 12:31 |
| ForgeAus | ahh IC | 12:31 |
| Kheops | try with K Menu | 12:31 |

| Kheops | ? | 12:49 |
| geggam | i come in here once every so often because the questions people ask here are a good metric to tell the progress | 12:50 |
| llutz | Kheops: no, not interested in gaming nor in wine at all | 12:50 |
| Jucato | Kheops: please ask about that in #winehq | 12:50 |
| llutz | geggam: wat progress? what you see is, that most of the guys easily find IRC but are unable to use searchsites like google :( | 12:51 |
| geggam | that will never change llutz | 12:51 |
| geggam | it was a problem in 99 and continues | 12:51 |

| kiefer | hrmm, I downloaded a .rar archive, its 85mb and is meant to contain like 20 files, when I open it it says 0 files 0 bytes, any advice? | 13:04 |

| ForgeAus | and the theme is a windows vista one :( | 13:04 |
| ForgeAus | kiefer are you sure you downloaded it all? | 13:04 |
| ubuntu | hey gues | 13:04 |
| kiefer | absolutley positive | 13:04 |
| ubuntu | WOW | 13:05 |
| kiefer | watched it hit 100%, thats why im stumped :S | 13:05 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm and you have an unrar utility | 13:05 |
| kiefer | yeah | 13:05 |
| kiefer | used 'sudo apt-get install unrar-free' | 13:05 |
| ForgeAus | ok well sounds like either the archive was corrupt (or more than that unrar-free program could handle) or something I don't know about... | 13:05 |

| Hesham | Hey Guys, How To Mount NTFS Drives On Kubuntu?? | 13:09 |
| Jucato | !ntfs | 13:09 |
| ubotu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see /msg ubotu NTFS-3g or /msg ubotu FUSE | 13:09 |
| ForgeAus | hmm wish this liveCD had krusader or mc | 13:10 |
| Hesham | THNX | 13:10 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm so whats /etc/rc* about? | 13:15 |
| ForgeAus | it runs this stuff during startup right? | 13:15 |
| llutz | ForgeAus: it contain start-stop-scripts for different runlevels, used by sysvinit | 13:21 |
| aharoon | how i enable UPNP service in my system? | 13:21 |
| ForgeAus | oh ok | 13:23 |
| ForgeAus | sounds like something I shouldn't have got... | 13:23 |
| ForgeAus | I kinda undermined it by removing an init.d symlink | 13:23 |
| ForgeAus | do you think it will still be a problem? | 13:24 |
| ForgeAus | (I know it won't load the delinked program but thats what I wanted) | 13:24 |
| aharoon | how i enable universal plug & play service? | 13:24 |
| llutz | ForgeAus: sudo update-rc.d -f <progname> remove should do it | 13:25 |
| ForgeAus | aharoon in systemsettings (or kcontrol) afaik | 13:25 |
| ForgeAus | ahh ok | 13:25 |
| llutz | uPnP = security nightmare | 13:25 |
| ForgeAus | I'll put the symlink back then | 13:25 |
| Kheops | llutz: | 13:26 |
| Kheops | how is going ? :) | 13:26 |
| ForgeAus | (that doesn't remove the app tho does it? just disables its rc* entry? | 13:26 |
| llutz | ForgeAus: right | 13:26 |
| ForgeAus | thanx :) | 13:26 |
| aharoon | i enable this service when i used windows to speed torrent download | 13:26 |
| ForgeAus | um wait I gotta boot into it to do that, otherwise have to chroot and not going through that from here | 13:26 |
| ForgeAus | copying that t some info file for later memory | 13:26 |
| Hesham | Is There Big Differences Kubunto 6.06 LTS & Kubuntu 7 ????????????? | 13:27 |
| Jucato | Hesham: yes. about 1 and a half year of updated packages and new features. if you need something super stable and don't mind using older version of packages, use the LTS. If you want something more up to date, use 7.10 | 13:28 |
| ForgeAus | thanx llutz :) | 13:28 |
| Kheops | Jucato: what is the command to see what version do u have ? | 13:29 |
| ForgeAus | uname | 13:29 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: nope | 13:29 |
| llutz | lsb_release -a | 13:29 |
| ForgeAus | wait maybe not | 13:29 |
| Jucato | Kheops: the one llutz gave | 13:30 |
| Kheops | ky | 13:30 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: that's specifically for kernel version | 13:30 |
| ForgeAus | ahh ok thanx Jucato, I'm still confused as you can tell | 13:30 |
| Jucato | :) | 13:30 |
| Kheops | :) | 13:30 |
| Jucato | one step at at time... little by little :) | 13:30 |
| Kheops | 6.06.1 yeah | 13:30 |
| Kheops | rulez | 13:30 |
| Kheops | :) | 13:30 |
| ForgeAus | (I was using uname for some other distro) | 13:30 |
| Jucato | hm... 6.06.2 was out already afaik... | 13:31 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: well you can relate the kernel version to which version was available for a particular distro release. | 13:31 |
| ForgeAus | musta been something I was reading about AndLinux or MacOSX | 13:31 |
| Jucato | (and not everyone has lsb_release, so "cat /etc/release" is probably more accurate) | 13:32 |
| ForgeAus | I need a ToH kernel to run it on my PC if I make it a Hackintosh | 13:32 |
| ForgeAus | unfortunately its illegal to do so :(... | 13:32 |
| ForgeAus | the compatibility would be nice tho | 13:32 |
| ForgeAus | I considered seriously going to buy Leopard from the shop... its not as expensive as Windows and it gives Apple less grounds to prosecute me if anything happens | 13:33 |
| rebugger | ForgeAus: lol | 13:33 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato, interesting coz when I tried that I got: | 13:35 |
| ForgeAus | root@ubuntu:/# cat /etc/release | 13:35 |
| ForgeAus | cat: /etc/release: No such file or directory | 13:35 |
| Jucato | hm.. but lsb_release -a works? | 13:35 |
| ForgeAus | yeah | 13:35 |
| llutz | cat /etc/*release | 13:35 |
| ForgeAus | maybe its something about the livecd? | 13:35 |
| aharoon | i looked in system settings and i didnt find anything called upnp | 13:35 |
| Jucato | weird... | 13:35 |
| ForgeAus | ahh yeah the * fixed it | 13:36 |
| llutz | file name is /etc/lsbrelease | 13:36 |
| Jucato | ah ok... | 13:36 |
| ForgeAus | this liveCD is Feisty :) | 13:36 |
| Jucato | oh well, even that is non-standard it seems :P | 13:36 |
| ForgeAus | ok before I go I better fix fglxr (sp?) | 13:36 |
| llutz | Jucato: the Ubuntu-Way (TM) | 13:36 |
| ForgeAus | rofl | 13:37 |
| Jucato | aharoon: I don't think you set it up there. if you're using ktorrent, there's a UPnP plugin that you have to enable and then configure it there | 13:37 |
| aharoon | i installed the upnp plugin in ktoorent but i know it should be enapled by system first | 13:37 |
| aharoon | is it true? | 13:39 |
| JavaBeans | Hi Al | 13:39 |
| JavaBeans | All* | 13:39 |
| Jucato | aharoon: not sure... try enabling it there first. I don't think there's a global UPnP setting in KDE anyway | 13:40 |
| aharoon | where should i find it in system setting? | 13:40 |
| JavaBeans | Can anybody help me with my graphics card issue | 13:40 |
| ForgeAus | um is it normal for /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/kernel/drivers/video/ to list aty instead of ati? | 13:40 |
| JavaBeans | I can't get above 1024*768 | 13:41 |
| ForgeAus | I think I'll make a symlink just in case | 13:41 |

| BluesKaj | Howdy all :) | 13:46 |
| JavaBeans | Hi | 13:47 |
| Kheops | hmmm | 13:47 |
| Kheops | what's a repository's key ? | 13:48 |
| hyper__ch | what's kdebase-bin-kde3 needed for? | 13:50 |
| BluesKaj | Kheops, the repository key is a validation that the source packages are bugfree and legit ...I think. Sometimes the key can't be validated due to changes in pkgs. | 13:51 |
| Kheops | ky | 13:52 |
| Kheops | 10x | 13:52 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | BluesKaj: I have found my problem with Amarok... | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | hyper__ch, copy and paste kdebase-bin-kde3 into adept searchbox then look at the 'properties' the explanation will pop up. | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | cool, gundam_rx78nt1 , what was it ? | 13:53 |
| hyper__ch | BluesKaj: maybe someone would directly know | 13:53 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | when the update for alsa came out conflicted with the settings I had on amarok. | 13:54 |
| BluesKaj | hyper__ch, we're not here to hold your hand , if you can follow instructions that's what we're here for. | 13:54 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | I wiped out the xine config files in my .xine directory and it workd. | 13:54 |
| hyper__ch | BluesKaj: hmmm, why would kde4-core want to remove kdebase-bin-kde3 ? | 13:54 |
| hyper__ch | BluesKaj: did I ask to hold my hand? | 13:54 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | oh, are we dancing here? LOL. | 13:55 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | BluesKaj: the funny thing is that someone last night had the same problem as I did. | 13:55 |

| BluesKaj | hyper__ch, I tried kde4 side by side with the existing kde3 and they seemed to work ok until some pkges got taken over by kde4 excluseively , maybe that's what your question is about ...I wan't impressed with kde4 so I uninstalled it. | 14:00 |
| Kheops | what is xserver ? | 14:00 |
| momal | !xserver | 14:01 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xserver - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 14:01 |

| ubotu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 14:01 |
| Kheops | hmmm | 14:01 |
| Kheops | u don't know what is that | 14:01 |
| Kheops | .... | 14:01 |
| hyper__ch | BluesKaj: according to the description kdebase-bin-kde3 seems to be quite important... but are you implaying kde3 could still run with the kdebase-bin-kde4 version? | 14:01 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: on the machine you're trying to run wine, do you have gnome or kde or xfce or fluxbox etc. running? | 14:02 |
| BluesKaj | yes hyper__ch , but not all pkges ..but i don't know why | 14:02 |

| === vincent__ is now known as DeadStarXt | ||
| Kheops | hyper__ch: ? | 14:03 |
| Jucato | hyper__ch: it's ok if kdebase-bin-kde3 is removed (when installing kde4)... you can ask in #kubuntu-kde4 for details | 14:03 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: then I don't know... did you install it from the repos? | 14:03 |
| Kheops | yes | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | Kheops, what graphics card are you using ? | 14:03 |
| Kheops | hmmmmm why it dosen't work ? | 14:03 |
| nareshov | Hi, why can't I set Luxi Mono as my Konsole font even though I have it installed? It doesn't show up in Konsole's font-picker! | 14:03 |

| Kheops | is there enough ? | 14:11 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: wouldn't installing windows in vmware or vbox be much more confortable? | 14:11 |
| Kheops | what's that ? | 14:12 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: those are two different programs, that allow you to run other operating systems within | 14:12 |
| BluesKaj | Kheops, did you install any other graphics drivers besides the the default nvidia ? | 14:12 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: e.g. you can run a windows xp within your ubuntu installation | 14:12 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: the only thing is, it doesn't support (yet) direct x... but startcraft does not need that | 14:13 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: with your processor and ram it should run ok | 14:13 |
| Kheops | hmmm | 14:13 |

| hyper__ch | damn, you were quicker ;) | 14:16 |
| Kheops | ky.. | 14:16 |
| Kheops | and them ? | 14:16 |

| hyper__ch | Kheops: open a terminal | 14:19 |
| JavaBeans | I have a GeForce 7800 and using the restricted drivers didn't fix my resolution | 14:19 |
| hyper__ch | BluesKaj: maybe he need to install it first | 14:19 |
| JavaBeans | I can't get any higher than 1024*768 | 14:19 |
| Kheops | BluesKaj: : yes | 14:20 |
| Kheops | but is not there | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | JavaBeans, did you reboot ? | 14:20 |
| JavaBeans | Yeah | 14:20 |
| hyper__ch | Kheops: apt-cache search restricted --> post the output here: http://www.phpfi.com --> after that give the URL of the site | 14:20 |
| Kheops | any restricted drivers | 14:20 |
| JavaBeans | I figured I need to change the xorg | 14:20 |
| JavaBeans | To add the right horizontal sync | 14:20 |
| JavaBeans | Or add other resolutions | 14:20 |
| Kheops | BluesKaj: ! | 14:20 |

| hyper__ch | Kheops: apt-cache search restricted --> post the output here: http://www.phpfi.com --> after that give the URL of the site | 14:21 |
| BluesKaj | ok Kheops , no restricted drivers for your card , perhaps the proprietary ones on nvidias website will help ..I'm not sure | 14:21 |
| Kheops | hmm | 14:21 |
| Kheops | no | 14:21 |
| Kheops | tell me where i can find RESTRICTED DRIVERS | 14:21 |

| Kheops | i'm very very polite | 14:25 |
| SlimeyPete | Kheops: what is your problem with wine? | 14:25 |
| Jucato | Kheops: 1. wine is a very non-standard application. it's used, as you know to run Windows programs on a Linux machine, so don't expect that it's a common thing that everyone has and everyone can help | 14:25 |
| bomber | what have you done so far to get wine setup? | 14:25 |
| SlimeyPete | is it giving you an error? | 14:25 |
| LjL | Kheops: drop the arguing about politeness and ask your question please | 14:25 |

| LjL | Kheops: why on earth are you running wine (or anything) in a root shell? | 14:32 |
| LjL | Kheops: the problem is that wine won't run from a root shell. neither will any other graphical application, really. | 14:33 |
| JavaBeans | Hey guys, just another quick question | 14:33 |
| JavaBeans | How can I edit the xorg file without logging in as root? | 14:33 |
| LjL | Kheops: root shouldn't be *enabled* for starters | 14:33 |
| LjL | Kheops: run it as normal user? | 14:33 |
| Kheops | hmmm | 14:34 |
| LjL | !root | 14:34 |
| ubotu | 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 | 14:34 |
| LjL | !noroot | 14:34 |
| ubotu | We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 14:34 |
| Kheops | what should i do ? | 14:34 |
| rebugger | JavaBeans: think, that doesnt work | 14:34 |
| Kheops | ?!?!?! | 14:34 |
| LjL | Kheops: run it from a normal user. not root. | 14:34 |
| Kheops | how ? | 14:34 |
| BluesKaj | JavaBeans, you need permissions to edit xorg | 14:34 |
| Kheops | relogin ? | 14:34 |
| LjL | Kheops: if you know how to get a root shell, you should know how to get a *non* root shell...? | 14:34 |
| JavaBeans | Yes, I understand | 14:34 |
| JavaBeans | That's why I am asking how to obtain that privilage | 14:35 |
| Kheops | ky | 14:35 |
| LjL | Kheops: are you running you *KDE* as root? | 14:35 |
| JavaBeans | Because I need to edit it... | 14:35 |
| LjL | your* | 14:35 |
| Kheops | nop | 14:35 |
| LjL | Kheops: then just open a Konsole not as root. and type "exit" in the root one. | 14:35 |
| hyper__ch | JavaBeans: sudo nano /etc/xorg/xorg.conf | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | JavaBeans, alt+F2, kdesu kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 14:35 |
| Kheops | it's working | 14:35 |
| hyper__ch | JavaBeans: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 14:36 |
| hyper__ch | ^^ | 14:36 |
| Kheops | LjL: i don't understand why wine don't work on root | 14:36 |
| Kheops | ? | 14:36 |
| LjL | Kheops: unsurprising. please never run things as root, especially not a whole shell, unless you know *exactly* what you're doing. | 14:36 |
| JavaBeans | Thanks for the help | 14:36 |
| LjL | Kheops: because your X screen is owned by your user, not by root | 14:36 |
| Kheops | ky | 14:37 |
| Kheops | good to know | 14:37 |
| LjL | Kheops: when you need to run something graphical as root, use "kdesudo". however, this isn't needed most of the times, *at all*, and may be dangerous. | 14:37 |
| LjL | !kdesudo > Kheops (Kheops, see the private message from Ubotu) | 14:37 |
| LjL | Kheops: to run programs in WINE, you can just type « wine /path/to/the/program.exe », generally speaking. not as root. | 14:37 |
| BluesKaj | LjL, kheops is running dapper | 14:37 |
| LjL | right | 14:38 |
| Kheops | ky | 14:38 |

| Kheops | i used kubuntu only for servers | 14:38 |
| Kheops | don't know about graphical or something | 14:38 |
| LjL | Kheops: "kdesu" on dapper, not "kdesudo" | 14:38 |
| Kheops | only servers | 14:38 |
| LjL | Kheops: well, on a server too, there's no real reason to use a root shell as a rule | 14:38 |
| Kheops | hmm i was running root always.. | 14:38 |

| yakuzi | BluesKaj: the problem i had? i solved it, on the guide (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=219894&highlight=logitech+mouse) i found after a while loking i had to replace "option "CorePointer"" with "option "SencCoreEvents" True"" | 14:43 |

| BluesKaj | hey yakuzi , cool ! , glad to hear you managed just fine :) | 14:45 |
| * chanika continues the dist-upgrade madness | 14:45 | |
| yakuzi | i've to say, it's sad the mouse doesn't work like it should directly, but it's doable for a linux noob to get it working (if you aren't afraid of trying something) | 14:46 |
| llutz | Jucato: "Linux is userfriendly, its just selective about its friends" not selective enough </ot> | 14:46 |
| rebugger | chanika: i stumbled on distupgrade ^^ tried to dist-upgrade a dapper to gutsy (in a vm) and didnt work... | 14:46 |
| chanika | what do I do about perl locale warnings? | 14:46 |
| rebugger | lol llutz | 14:46 |
| chanika | rebugger: that's exactly what I'm forcing upon this poor laptop | 14:47 |
| JavaBeans | After I make a change to the xorg file within the terminal, how do I save the changes back to the file? | 14:47 |
| LjL | JavaBeans: with nano?= | 14:47 |
| rebugger | chanika: i'm trying it in a vm before working on my vserver.... why the hell cant they give me a gutsy-install... if it wont work, ill have to go with debian4 | 14:48 |
| llutz | chanika/ rebugger why don't you install fresh, saves you lots of time (and more)? | 14:48 |
| BluesKaj | yakuzi, in my experience 50% of probs are solved by users themselves (myself included) just some patience and judicious searches seem to work wonders :) | 14:48 |
| rebugger | llutz: next week i get a vserver with dapper (they dont offer gutsy) | 14:48 |
| rebugger | llutz: so i have to find a good way to upgrade to gutsy | 14:48 |
| llutz | rebugger: then better use debian4 (imho) | 14:48 |
| llutz | rebugger: debootstrap with gutsy maybe | 14:49 |
| JavaBeans | Yeah, I'm using nano | 14:49 |
| LjL | JavaBeans: Ctrl+X, Enter, Enter. do you have a backup? | 14:49 |
| JavaBeans | Yeah | 14:49 |
| JavaBeans | Thanks ;-) | 14:49 |
| rebugger | rebugger: debian - i was just thinking about that, but would like to give ubuntuserver a try | 14:49 |
| yakuzi | BluesKaj: trial and error always works ;-) | 14:49 |
| chanika | darnit | 14:50 |
| rebugger | llutz: didnt ever try a debootstrap | 14:50 |
| chanika | installing udev would break libdevmapper1.02 | 14:50 |
| chanika | terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error' | 14:50 |
| BluesKaj | JavaBeans, oh , din't realize you were using the cli | 14:50 |
| llutz | rebugger: give it a try if you don't want debian | 14:51 |
| rebugger | llutz: any good howto? | 14:51 |
| chanika | how do Ifix that error? | 14:51 |
| llutz | rebugger: i only had a german one... just ask mr. google | 14:51 |
| rebugger | llutz: gib mir die deutsche :) | 14:52 |
| rebugger | llutz: and i will google too | 14:52 |
| BluesKaj | llutz, I had a die hard debian user tell me that (k)ubuntu was becoming too "suburban & mainstream" for his taste :) | 14:52 |
| rebugger | llutz: everyone should use, what he wants ;) | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | of course he hadn't tried (k)ubuntu | 14:53 |
| theunixgeek | I followed http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/18/removing-kde-icons-in-gnome-remove-gnome-icons-in-kde/ to remove KDE apps from the GNOME menus and vice versa; how do I undo it. | 14:53 |
| theunixgeek | ? | 14:54 |
| rebugger | BluesKaj: well and hardliners are hardliners | 14:54 |
| llutz | BluesKaj: i put my hope on hardy, because gutsy here is the unstablest distro i had in about 13 yrs | 14:54 |
| llutz | rebugger: cannot find it anymore :( | 14:54 |
| rebugger | llutz: well, no problem - ill ask mr. google | 14:54 |
| chanika | update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386/usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: line 152: mktemp: command not found | 14:54 |
| chanika | ouch | 14:55 |
| rebugger | chanika: ran into the same problems - it will get worser ;) | 14:55 |
| chanika | uhoh. | 14:55 |
| chanika | um, so Ican't install mktemp because aptitude is too messed up | 14:56 |
| yakuzi | llutz: indeed, 7.10 isn't that stable... i had a few random shut-dows when doing just nothing :s, but that already some time ago i had it... maybe it's already fixed by an update :p | 14:56 |
| chanika | E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.Reading package lists... Error!E: Malformed 3rd word in the Status line | 14:56 |
| rebugger | yakuzi, llutz: it works like a charm ;).... nearly | 14:56 |
| yakuzi | indeed, nearly, now i've my mouse working nicely and the few shut-downs gone ;-) | 14:57 |
| Stratman4300 | got a quick question if anyones got a sec?? | 14:57 |
| llutz | rebugger: so everone has it's own experience with it. | 14:57 |
| rebugger | llutz: righty right | 14:58 |
| rebugger | Stratman4300: just ask the question | 14:58 |
| Stratman4300 | probably a silly question.... but... just switched from Debian last night... configuring my panels..... | 14:59 |
| yakuzi | yup...Feisty convinced me to try gutsy when it came out, and now i have to say i appreciate linux way more than windows.. win has too strange things and you can't solve them yourself :D | 14:59 |
| BluesKaj | !ask | Stratman4300 | 14:59 |
| ubotu | Stratman4300: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 14:59 |
| Stratman4300 | now i'm trying to adjust the size of my external taskbar..... but i don't see the menu in the panel configurator to select which panel your configuring.... | 14:59 |
| Stratman4300 | ehh... sorry.... new to IRC =P | 15:00 |
| Stratman4300 | did they do away with that menu??? | 15:00 |
| rebugger | Stratman4300: just rightclick the panel, that you want to resize - and go to the settings | 15:00 |
| rebugger | then you can resize it | 15:00 |
| llutz | Stratman4300: or run kcontrol instead of crippled systemsettings, there you should find all those setting-menus | 15:02 |
| === readyx is now known as ready | ||
| Stratman4300 | right i select my external taskbar.... click configur external taskbar... and it takes me to the panel configuration.... i go to arrangment to adjust the size but it selects to main panel by default.... there isn't a menu to select which panel your configuring anymore.... it's always been there in debian.... thought maybe i was going crazy.. lol | 15:02 |
| Jucato | it's a bug. you need to restart the panel to tell it that a new panel has been added/removed. | 15:03 |
| Jucato | Alt+F2, "dcop kicker kicker restart" | 15:03 |
| Stratman4300 | ahhhh gotcha.... thanks guys | 15:03 |

| JavaBeans | Just wanted to say thanks for the few that helped me with my graphics deal | 15:14 |
| JavaBeans | The monitor was the issue | 15:14 |
| miki | what happens with compiz after this changes in ubuntu i can't see window normaly in hardy? | 15:15 |
| BluesKaj | yes JavaBeans , sometimes ppl forget about the monitor settings ...quite important actually' | 15:15 |
| JavaBeans | Yeah, it was the last thing I thought about | 15:16 |
| JavaBeans | Always go straight for Nvidia, lol | 15:16 |
| BluesKaj | weel, ATI here and my monitor needed some custom settings to get my preferred resolution to work. | 15:17 |
| JavaBeans | When I was running windows it said that my refresh rate was 60 | 15:17 |
| JavaBeans | And it would hide any other refresh rates that were not compatible | 15:17 |
| JavaBeans | Yet I am running 65 right now | 15:17 |
| JavaBeans | Is that going ot damage my monitor in any way? | 15:17 |
| JavaBeans | to* | 15:18 |
| BluesKaj | no, not 65 | 15:18 |
| Patrick_Dugue | hi | 15:18 |
| rebugger | JavaBeans: no, but your eyes | 15:18 |
| rebugger | JavaBeans: try > 70 | 15:18 |
| JavaBeans | So it needs to be higher? | 15:18 |
| JavaBeans | It appears that my monitor was not made to handle that | 15:18 |
| JavaBeans | It's a viewsonic 2235wm | 15:18 |
| rebugger | would be better for your eyes, to have it >70hz | 15:19 |

| NiteOwl255 | does anyone have experience setting up kubuntu with a wireless router? | 15:26 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: well, why dont you just tell, what your problem is? | 15:27 |
| NiteOwl255 | okay | 15:27 |
| Chani | I gave up, I'm gonna try and use my last blank cd to burn gutsy.... if the guy is still interested after all this insanity | 15:27 |
| Chani | his windoze install is even more broken right now, so who knows, he might be willing to let me keep mucking with things | 15:28 |
| NiteOwl255 | it seems that the network connection will not connect to my wireless router, I have a NetGear WG111t usb 802.g usb adapter trying to connect to my WRT54GL linksys router | 15:28 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: so what have you done? is your wireless-adapter working? | 15:29 |
| NiteOwl255 | it seems to be, it was showing me the available wrl network and I saw mine, tried to connect to it | 15:30 |
| rebugger | k | 15:30 |
| rebugger | how is/was the signal quality? | 15:30 |
| NiteOwl255 | in the progress it would get up to about %57 and would say trying to setup ip address or something but then it would say that I could not connect | 15:31 |
| NiteOwl255 | the signal quality was very good | 15:31 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: ok, thats no big problem | 15:32 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: just try to reconnect | 15:32 |
| rebugger | when it says: getting ip, it means you are connected | 15:32 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: dhcp is running on the router? | 15:32 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: so it can get an ip | 15:32 |
| NiteOwl255 | but here's the thing, I use static IP so I went into manual settings and set the IP and everhting | 15:32 |
| rebugger | aah | 15:33 |
| rebugger | ok | 15:33 |
| NiteOwl255 | I know it's set the the right IP, gateway and subnet but it still will not connect | 15:33 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: well, havent tried it with static ips | 15:33 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: i would suggest: keep playing around with the settings - you are near | 15:34 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: or just enable dhcp for your wlan | 15:34 |
| rebugger | ;) | 15:34 |
| NiteOwl255 | here's another thing, in the network setting, under manual config | 15:34 |
| NiteOwl255 | in the route tab, I set it to my wrl adapter I save the changes and even tried rebooting but it keeps going back to me ether controller | 15:35 |
| NiteOwl255 | it seems like it's not keeping my setting or something | 15:36 |
| rebugger | NiteOwl255: well sorry, cant help with that - never needed these options | 15:36 |
| NiteOwl255 | thanks anyways | 15:37 |

| NiteOwl255 | really starting to piss me off, as far as I can see it should work but the one setting not stay to what I set it tells me that it's something else wrong maybe | 15:38 |

| ericwl | NiteOwl255: NetworkManager will always prefer your ethernet cable over your WLAN if it's the issue. | 15:38 |
| henk | hi all, i just installed kubuntu and copied my .kde from a previous ubuntu installation... however, the menu editor doesn't seem to want to start... can someone tell me which app would that be? apparantly, there is no "menu-editor" command :) | 15:39 |
| NiteOwl255 | but I've even tried disabling the ether controller but it re-enables it | 15:39 |
| NiteOwl255 | why is that? | 15:39 |
| ericwl | NiteOwl255: and what if you just unplug the cable? | 15:40 |
| luigi_ | can i add on kopete the italian server of ubuntu? | 15:40 |
| luigi_ | how? | 15:40 |
| Jucato | henk: kmenuedit | 15:40 |
| henk | thx! | 15:40 |
| NiteOwl255 | the cable is already unplugged | 15:40 |
| Jucato | luigi_: you're using Konversation. why do you need to add it to Kopete? | 15:41 |
| NiteOwl255 | stubborn thing I'm finding | 15:41 |
| Jucato | luigi_: also, #ubuntu-it is on this same server. you just need to go to the channel. no need to add a new server | 15:41 |
| luigi_ | noooo i need to add on konversation.. apologies! | 15:42 |
| NiteOwl255 | it seems to want to connect wirelessly only with DHCP | 15:42 |
| NiteOwl255 | shouldn't I be able to tell it what IP to use and stuff? | 15:43 |
| luigi_ | Jucato your link doesn't work. | 15:43 |
| ericwl | NiteOwl255: OK, you lost me... | 15:43 |
| NiteOwl255 | sorry, where did I loose you? | 15:43 |
| Jucato | luigi_: what link? just click on #ubuntu-it or type /j #ubuntu-it | 15:44 |
| ericwl | NiteOwl255: let me try to repeat what I understood (or what I think I would do at your place :-) )... | 15:44 |
| luigi_ | damn! someone can help me with a doubt with a wireless? | 15:45 |
| ericwl | NiteOwl255: you didn't change anything to your computer, only to your router, where you assigned a fixed IP address to the MAC address of your WLAN adapter? | 15:46 |
| ericwl | luigi_: don't ask to ask, just ask.... | 15:46 |
| dorkface | HI all. I have a .tff file that has a font that I really want to use. I've searched google, but I couldn't find anything on converting .tff to .pcf. Is it possible? | 15:47 |
| dorkface | or can konsole use .tff? | 15:47 |
| NiteOwl255 | oh no, I've set my router to static IPs. So any computer wanting to contect to it have to be config to a specific IP range, subnetmask and gateway. | 15:48 |
| NiteOwl255 | with DHCP the router provide that info to the computers trying to connect to it | 15:49 |
| NiteOwl255 | I prefer to do it manually | 15:49 |
| mixed | anyone wants to help me remove windows from my distro? | 15:50 |
| NiteOwl255 | this mean that on my kubuntu I have to tell it manually what IP, subnet and gateway to use | 15:51 |
| ericwl | NiteOwl255: OK, understood (not why you do this, but what you do). | 15:51 |
| mixed | I have Linux installed in a SATA drive and windows in an IDE HD, it's all set up as dual-boot, how can I remove the IDE HD from my distro and make linux boot up normal? | 15:51 |
| ericwl | NiteOwl255: sorry, not experience with static IPs and WLAN. If I want to have a specific computer always get the same IP, I just set it up accordingly in my router, using the MAC address. | 15:52 |
| ericwl | dorkface: konsole can use ttf (I assume that's what you mean with tff). | 15:53 |
| NiteOwl255 | I'm not familiar with that | 15:53 |
| NiteOwl255 | but still is there a way for me to force the setting? | 15:54 |
| dorkface | ericwl: ah, yes, I do. :) Do you happen to know how to be able to get konsole to use the file? When I go into the font options, there are only a few fonts to select from, and no import option. | 15:54 |
| Jucato | konsole can only use monospace fonts | 15:56 |
| Jucato | (afaik) | 15:56 |
| ericwl | dorkface: jucato is right konsole shows only monospace fonts installed on your system. | 15:56 |
| dorkface | ah | 15:56 |
| dorkface | ericwl: So, I am basically out of luck? hehe | 15:57 |
| ericwl | NiteOwl255: if you use ifconfig, you'll say for each interface a HWaddr value (6 hexadecimal numbers, like 00:1C:C4:84:80:55) | 15:58 |
| ericwl | Most WLAN routers offer the possibility to link a fixed IP address to a MAC (or hardware) address. | 15:59 |
| mefisto__ | dorkface: you probably wouldn't want non-monospace fonts, otherwise formatting using tabs and spaces won't look as intended. | 15:59 |
| ericwl | And you don't need to change anything to the computers. | 15:59 |
| dorkface | mefisto__: ah | 16:00 |
| NiteOwl255 | i guess, so there no way to get it working under the current config? | 16:00 |
| dorkface | Thanks all, though :) | 16:00 |
| ericwl | Perhaps, just no experience with it... | 16:01 |

| ericwl | marc: I think you need to install libx11 (libx11-6 package under gutsy). | 16:24 |
| === milen is now known as blade | ||
| ericwl | marc: and you need to have libgtk1.2 installed | 16:25 |
| thechris | wma skips, amd64. is there a fix for this or advice? | 16:26 |
| ericwl | marc: and the script is really buggy (btw, 'sh ./setup.sh' fails because it's a bash script) | 16:26 |
| marc | yeah i think i must install the libgtk1.2 but whats the syntax for apt-get? | 16:27 |
| thechris | odd, did they not put the #!/bin/bash in the file? | 16:27 |
| ericwl | thechris: you speak to me? | 16:27 |
| thechris | ericwl: yeah | 16:27 |
| ericwl | marc: apt-get install libgtk1.2 (or use Synaptic) | 16:28 |
| ericwl | thechris: it's most probably there and that's why './setup.sh' and 'sh ./setup.sh' fails | 16:28 |
| ericwl | thechris: calling the script with 'sh ./setup.sh' overwrites the bang thing... | 16:29 |
| ericwl | thechris: (I meant './setup.sh' *works* and 'sh ./setup.sh' fails) | 16:30 |

| JavaBeans | Unlike Ubuntu 7.10, Kubtuntu doesn't come preinstalled with Beryl, correct? | 17:02 |
| SlimeyPete | JavaBeans: correct | 17:02 |
| SlimeyPete | you don't want Beryl these days anyway, compiz-fusion is the successor to beryl/compiz. | 17:02 |
| JavaBeans | oh, okay | 17:02 |
| SlimeyPete | but it's not available by default either | 17:02 |
| alien__ | can somebody help me to configure apache for php ? | 17:02 |
| JavaBeans | I'm a bit behind on the beryl deal | 17:02 |

| SlimeyPete | alien__: if you use apt/adept to install the apache php modules, you apache configuration will be set up automatically | 17:03 |
| alien__ | :) | 17:03 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah but you need libapache2-php or similar | 17:03 |
| SlimeyPete | (sorry, I'm on Windows atm so can't look) | 17:03 |
| alien__ | i install apache and php | 17:03 |
| alien__ | but how to connect apache on php | 17:04 |
| alien__ | when i put script in http://localhost | 17:04 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah, but you need the php module for apache. | 17:04 |
| SlimeyPete | which is called libapache2-php or something similar to that. | 17:04 |
| alien__ | which php module ? | 17:04 |
| hola | sameone uses virtualbox? | 17:04 |

| JavaBeans | Yeah, I've heard a bit about Eclipse | 17:06 |
| JavaBeans | We normally use JCreator on Windows machines | 17:06 |

| JavaBeans | I also need to bring over some of my C# code | 17:07 |
| JavaBeans | Not sure if I can do that though | 17:07 |

| JavaBeans | I tried it out and decided I want to contribute if possible | 17:09 |
| JavaBeans | The current projects I am bringing over will not benefit the community at large because the needs are specific to one company | 17:09 |
| JavaBeans | I just need to find out a few real needs of the community and look into what I would have time to do | 17:10 |
| alien__ | SlimeyPete | 17:11 |

| alien__ | but i install php5 | 17:11 |
| alien__ | i just need to configure it | 17:11 |
| SlimeyPete | alien__: if you install libapache2-mod-php5 it should configure itself automatically | 17:11 |
| JavaBeans | But if I can get a small community online to work on a project for linux on the weekends and during free time I would feel good knowing I am doing something anybody can use | 17:12 |
| SlimeyPete | though...hrm, hang on, I shall look at my own apache config | 17:12 |
| JavaBeans | I think Linux is well served enough in the graphical area at this point | 17:12 |
| werner | JavaBeans: do you use sourceforge? | 17:12 |
| JavaBeans | I don't use sourceforge | 17:13 |
| werner | JavaBeans: is there a reason why not? | 17:13 |
| SlimeyPete | alien__: you may need to add "Options ExecCGI" to the definition of your directory in your apache configuration | 17:13 |
| JavaBeans | No particular reason, just haven't | 17:13 |
| * SlimeyPete recently got slightly involved with a new project called pyroom | 17:14 | |
| JavaBeans | The only time I use something like that is at work, but it's not sourceforge | 17:14 |
| werner | JavaBeans: there you may find a big community and everybody can join the project and dev-team ... | 17:14 |

| Alex135 | there are a few of them i know... | 17:25 |
| SlimeyPete | there should be a "<Directory /var/www>" bit. Put "Options +ExecCGI" in that bit. | 17:25 |

| intelikey | what is the question ? i was thinking that why might be the question... | 19:14 |
| ScorpKing | how do i send mail from bash? i get "/var/log/exim4/mainlog:2008-02-10 21:12:33 1JOHbN-0004RJ-99 ** me@someserver.com R=nonlocal: Mailing to remote domains not supported". am i supposed to add smtp login info somewhere? | 19:15 |
| Negatratoron | When I boot, grub gives an error 17. I can solve this by changing the "root (hd3,0)" to "root (hd0,0)". | 19:15 |
| Negatratoron | The question is as follows: | 19:15 |
| Negatratoron | Modifying device.map has no effect on anything. Why? | 19:15 |
| intelikey | only read when updating the MBR ? | 19:16 |
| intelikey | for three houndred please | 19:16 |
| Negatratoron | What? | 19:16 |
| kubuntu__ | can someone plz help me? | 19:17 |
| sub[t]rnl | hd0,0 is the grub equivalent of your hard drives first partition ex. sda1. grubs hd0,1 would be sda2, et cetra. define the correct place in the menu.lst | 19:17 |
| intelikey | sorry. bad joke. answer is the same though. /boot/grub/device.map is only read when updating the MBR i think. | 19:17 |

| andreas__ | what do you have against perl and python | 20:14 |
| intelikey | bloat | 20:14 |
| biovore | scripting languages.. | 20:15 |
| biovore | there all bloat | 20:15 |
| andreas__ | ah yes. it will take another 50mb of your 500gb disk | 20:15 |
| NickPresta | andreas__, intelikey runs a fairly minimalistic system, if I recall correctly :) | 20:15 |
| intelikey | andreas__ 57.5MB of my 4g disk. | 20:15 |
| andreas__ | ever considered slackware ;) | 20:16 |
| intelikey | yep have 5.0 non-release release on cd | 20:16 |
| fdoving | dsl is nice. | 20:16 |
| intelikey | have dsl too | 20:16 |
| andreas__ | ah 5.0 was a good one | 20:16 |
| andreas__ | the best 1995 has to offer, as i always say | 20:16 |
| intelikey | :) | 20:17 |
| fdoving | how is 12? i've downloaded the dvd, not had time to test yet. | 20:17 |
| andreas__ | solid | 20:17 |
| intelikey | andreas__ but i'm not gonna be downloading dvd's over dialup. one cd was bad enough. | 20:18 |
| andreas__ | slackware offers cds. you can get a complete system (without kde) with the first cd | 20:19 |
| intelikey | and a 57m dl is six days of bandnarrowness that's part of what i have against perl & python | 20:19 |
| intelikey | well that was exagerated just a little. but you get the point. | 20:20 |
| andreas__ | really doesn't matter thouth. give 12.1 a try when it comes out | 20:20 |
| intelikey | i dont even have bash installed "more bloat" :) | 20:21 |

| darkalien | hello witch packet must i install that i can watch flv? my player is totem | 20:28 |
| andreas__ | cheater; you have upgraded the ram | 20:28 |
| andreas__ | darkalien: xine based players should work | 20:28 |
| intelikey | andreas__ :) it did have 32m when i installed. and yes ubuntu hoary could be installed on 32m ram but it wan't easy. | 20:29 |
| andreas__ | to be more precise they need to utilize ffmpeg. videolan, mplayer, kaffeine should all work | 20:29 |
| darkalien | can i watch it with totem ? its my favorite | 20:29 |
| val0 | how do you check what SSL library you have installed? | 20:30 |
| andreas__ | iff there is a xine-backend for totem or a gstreamer-plugin | 20:30 |
| darkalien | ok mom | 20:30 |
| andreas__ | i really don't know the state of the art for gstreamer | 20:30 |

| noam_ | hi i have a question. as per http://mikearthur.co.uk/2007/12/30/konqueror-with-latest-adobe-flash-howto/ i tried making kmplayer play .swfs with /home/noam/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so, however this doesn't work, kmplayer still tries using mplayer to play those. is ubuntu's kmplayer special regarding configuration? | 20:35 |

| noam_ | christ! this solution does not work in ubuntu because kmplayer doesn't have npp compiled in | 20:39 |
| noam_ | so we're screwed and we'll never have flash in konqueror again *burts out crying* | 20:39 |
| andreas__ | there already is patch | 20:39 |
| noam_ | for nspluginviewer? | 20:40 |
| andreas__ | a patch. | 20:40 |
| andreas__ | actually i'm surprised the kubuntu folks haven't applied it | 20:40 |
| andreas__ | yes. konqueror with the 115 flash plugin | 20:40 |
| andreas__ | afaik suse and fedora have it applied | 20:40 |
| noam_ | in testing, and as far as i understand it sort of semi-working-ish | 20:41 |

| intelikey | apache ? | 20:41 |
| jpatrick | andreas__: it's been applied and uploaded | 20:41 |
| jpatrick | andreas__: days ago | 20:41 |
| andreas__ | well, good for you. | 20:42 |
| andreas__ | and for noam_ | 20:42 |
| noam_ | what? so nspluginviewer shouldn't crash on flash when 115 is installed? | 20:43 |
| andreas__ | it should never crash ;) | 20:43 |
| noam_ | in the current condition of kubuntu 7.10, as represented by the state of the repositories, is nspluginviewer crashing? | 20:43 |

| djdarkman | maybe it`s becasuse on the DVD i used the text mode install? | 21:00 |

| nosrednaekim | Toothpick: nah... that would be Fw_cutter then... | 21:08 |

| Crashed | Is there a hotkey in Kubuntu to bring up the desktop? | 21:09 |
| aharoon | port , udp tracker port , DHT communication | 21:09 |
| sub[t]rnl | aharoon➜ in the general tab in ktorrent, enable use DHT to get addition peers. Set the port and have your router forward that port. Enable protocol encryption as well, in case your isp is monitoring | 21:10 |
| Crashed | Ahha. It is working. :) | 21:10 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: hrm, can't think of it off the top of my head, but i'm sure you could set one. | 21:10 |
| Crashed | On Windows, I'd use the windows key + D. | 21:10 |
| Crashed | Very convenient. | 21:10 |
| aharoon | i already did that nothing changed | 21:11 |
| Crashed | Does Age of Empires run on Kubuntu? | 21:11 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: possibly under WINE | 21:11 |
| Crashed | I should probably just make this my permanent OS, but I wanna play some games. | 21:11 |
| sub[t]rnl | aharoon➜ your settings within Download prefrences will also play a factor into your torrent speeds. Especially maximum connects and maximum upload rate. | 21:11 |
| Crashed | Hm. What kind of system requirements would you say you'd need for WINE? | 21:11 |
| intelikey | sub[t]rnl hehhe that "in case your isp is monitoring" line set off three alarms here lol | 21:11 |

| Crashed | AMD 3000+, 768MB DDR RAM sound good? | 21:12 |
| sub[t]rnl | aharoon➜ let me rephrase, in case your isp is monitorring torrent traffic. | 21:12 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: if it can play the original game under windows... it can play it under wine. | 21:12 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: at least on the hardware side...WINE might not have the capability for that game yet | 21:12 |
| Crashed | Ah, I see. | 21:13 |
| aharoon | everything is set to 0 i changed ports of port, UDP tracker and fforworded them in router i set number of upload slots to 10 max upload rate to 3 | 21:13 |

| Crashed | Konquorer | 21:13 |

| intelikey | nosrednaekim commands listed there are safe even if the dir exists. | 21:17 |

| Crashed | No errors. | 21:32 |
| Crashed | But nothing happens. | 21:32 |
| nosrednaekim | it goes right back to the command line? | 21:32 |
| Crashed | Almost instantly, yes. | 21:33 |
| mefisto__ | intelikey: I get a long list like this: libnss_mdns6.so.2 -> libnss_mdns6.so.2 but no warnings or errors | 21:33 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: run "ls | grep .moz" | 21:33 |
| nosrednaekim | does it return anything? | 21:33 |
| val0 | intelikey: did you find it or do you want me to send you a link? | 21:33 |
| Crashed | Nothing | 21:33 |
| tarin | can anyone help me setup gutsy as a webserver | 21:33 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: odd, you know, sometimes things behave wierdly off the liveCD... why aren't you installing? | 21:34 |
| nosrednaekim | !webserver | 21:34 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about webserver - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 21:34 |
| Crashed | I was going to install windows. :/ | 21:34 |
| nosrednaekim | !LAMP | tarin | 21:34 |
| ubotu | tarin: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 21:34 |
| Crashed | Please don't hurt me for saying that :P | 21:34 |
| intelikey | mefisto__ are you still unable to open konqueror ? | 21:34 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: I won't... I have windows on here, I use it for Garmin navigation. | 21:34 |
| Crashed | Hell, I should just install this and play around with linux. | 21:34 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: install XP first. | 21:35 |
| Crashed | Well, don't hurt me for this either, but I'm downloading XP. | 21:35 |

| Crashed | Yeah I know :( | 21:35 |
| Crashed | Ive been using such an ancient PC for so long that I haven't been able to even run XP. | 21:35 |
| andreas__ | (vista is better anyway) | 21:35 |
| Crashed | I need to pick up a copy sometime. | 21:35 |
| intelikey | val0 looks like if you have the infected kernel, then yes. there should be a patch in the repos very soon | 21:35 |
| nosrednaekim | lol | 21:35 |
| andreas__ | :D | 21:35 |
| mefisto__ | intelikey: same error: Inconsistency detected by ld.so: ../sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h: 550: elf_machine_rel_relative: Assertion `((reloc->r_info) & 0xff) == 8' failed! | 21:36 |
| Crashed | I don't want to install 98SE :] | 21:36 |
| val0 | intelikey: the new ver of firefox has an issue too :( and adobe 2008 as well... great weekend! i don't wont to go to work tomorrow | 21:36 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: then install Kubuntu. | 21:36 |
| Crashed | That I am doing right now. | 21:36 |
| intelikey | val0 heh. yeah. | 21:37 |
| Crashed | Alright, it's asking me what kind of partition I want for Kubuntu. | 21:37 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: what do you use your computer for? games? or mostly surfing and such. | 21:37 |
| Crashed | Which option is the use-all option? | 21:37 |
| intelikey | val0 that's yet another bid for using the LTS or debian stable. | 21:37 |
| Crashed | Well, it *used* to be mostly surfing. But now that I can play games, I definately want to catch up. | 21:37 |
| Crashed | Stopp playing games since 2000. I really need to catch up :) | 21:38 |
| Crashed | I stopped* | 21:38 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: well, there are plenty of free games for Linux, if you don't already have some bought | 21:38 |
| intelikey | mefisto__ is that a 64 bit install ? | 21:38 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: you mean for partitioning? | 21:38 |
| Crashed | Yes | 21:38 |
| Crashed | I want it to use my entire HDD, but I can't really understand. | 21:38 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: "guided - use entire disk" | 21:38 |
| mefisto__ | intelikey: no | 21:38 |
| intelikey | k | 21:38 |
| Crashed | I don't see that option. | 21:38 |
| nosrednaekim | what options do you see? | 21:39 |
| Crashed | 'Erase entire disk' - I got that one. | 21:39 |
| val0 | intelikey: as opposed to? (asking because i really don't know :D) | 21:39 |
| Crashed | Resize master, partition #1 | 21:39 |
| Crashed | Use the largest continuous free space | 21:39 |
| intelikey | mefisto__ well i'm at a loss on that. time to hit google and the bug reports. | 21:39 |
| Crashed | And manually edit. | 21:39 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: yeah..."erase entire disk" | 21:39 |
| intelikey | val0 ubuntu latest | 21:39 |
| Crashed | Alright, thanks. | 21:39 |
| intelikey | val0 or debian testing | 21:39 |
| mefisto__ | intelikey: trouble is I don't understand much of what I've found, and no mention of a solution | 21:40 |
| thiemster | only 38 more members to go in the ubuntu forums for 500,000 | 21:40 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: never seen that mix of options before though.... is this the 7.10, gusty (the latest release)? | 21:40 |
| Crashed | Would I be able to still talk on IRC while installing? | 21:40 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: yes | 21:40 |
| Crashed | Awesome :D | 21:40 |
| Crashed | What's the command to check? | 21:40 |
| intelikey | mefisto__ yeah. i'm not much help there either, sorry. | 21:40 |
| val0 | intelikey: oh i see, i always thought those were for people who know what they are doing, so i am not going anywhere near those! | 21:40 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: though if you are torrenting... you may not want to wipe the disk, cause thats "hopefully" where you are torrenting to | 21:40 |
| Crashed | Well, it says it's formatting everything. | 21:41 |
| intelikey | val0 well ubuntu dapper drake LTS isn't affected by that exploit. kernel is loder than the window of exploit | 21:41 |
| Crashed | test | 21:41 |
| Crashed | Why is my mouse scroll button binded to the clipboard? | 21:42 |
| intelikey | loder/older | 21:42 |
| Crashed | That is very odd :P | 21:42 |
| val0 | intelikey: cool, thanks for the info! | 21:42 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: command to check is "lsb_release -a" | 21:42 |
| intelikey | Crashed middle click. | 21:42 |
| Crashed | Hopefully WINE works with my favourite application. | 21:42 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: middle click in KDE is paste | 21:43 |
| Crashed | Hm, this is 6.10, nosrednaekim. | 21:43 |
| Goliath23 | hi. I heard that the newer nvidia drivers fix a problem with kde4 and provide better performance. the newest package I can get in gutsy is driver version 1.00.14 the nvidia homepage provides 169.09 ... is there a better way to install a newer version than taking the one from the nvidia homepage? | 21:43 |
| intelikey | val0 2.6.17 through 2.6.24.1 only. | 21:43 |
| Crashed | Ah, that's good to know. | 21:43 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: fairly old.... | 21:43 |
| Crashed | Oh really? | 21:43 |
| nosrednaekim | over a year | 21:43 |
| Crashed | Heh | 21:43 |
| Crashed | Wrote this damn thing on a CD-R. | 21:43 |
| nosrednaekim | 2 releases old, | 21:43 |
| Crashed | Saving my only CD-RW for Windows. | 21:44 |
| intelikey | nosrednaekim and Crashed as long as xorg has existed.... 5 years ? | 21:44 |
| nosrednaekim | but don't worry, it'll work fine. | 21:44 |
| Crashed | What kind of system resources does Kubuntu use? | 21:44 |
| intelikey | oh sorry. i'm out of sync there. | 21:44 |
| nosrednaekim | intelikey: hrm, didn't know that was a X thing. ^_^ | 21:44 |
| Crashed | I remember it was bad news when I ran it on my K6-2. Took nearly an hour to boot up. | 21:44 |
| intelikey | nosrednaekim yes it's X not kde. | 21:44 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: should be speedy on that hardware... | 21:45 |
| Crashed | :] | 21:45 |
| intelikey | nosrednaekim actualy linux not X but i don't know the origen of that | 21:45 |
| Crashed | I'm thinking of dropping a light HTTP server OS on my K6-2. Turn it into a server. | 21:45 |
| Crashed | Probably wouldn't even be able to handle a website decently. | 21:45 |
| intelikey | Crashed apache cherokee ? | 21:45 |
| intelikey | sure it will. | 21:46 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: oh yeah.... it should... | 21:46 |
| Crashed | Hm | 21:46 |
| Crashed | Maybe I should do that then. | 21:46 |
| Crashed | Does Kubuntu have any free, good software for TV tuners? | 21:46 |
| intelikey | until they post your url on /. | 21:46 |
| * intelikey runs cherokee on all his pinguins | 21:47 | |
| Crashed | Kubuntu is so shiny compared to 98SE. | 21:47 |
| intelikey | i didn't say they were open to the public. | 21:47 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: depends on if the TV tuner is supported.there is Ktv and MythTv | 21:48 |
| Crashed | Hm | 21:48 |
| Crashed | http://byond.com/members/Crashed/files/crashedpc.html | 21:48 |
| intelikey | !tv | 21:48 |
| ubotu | http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out | 21:48 |
| VanDyke | hummm | 21:49 |
| Crashed | I've got a powerview TV tuner. | 21:49 |
| VanDyke | can't join #ubuntu | 21:49 |
| Crashed | Oh jesus, that page looks like garbage. It looked fine in IE. I'm gonna love hating IE now :P | 21:49 |
| Crashed | And I should probably put 'Time since Crashed's PC arrival' | 21:50 |
| intelikey | VanDyke banned ? | 21:50 |
| VanDyke | yea | 21:50 |
| VanDyke | and the weird thing is | 21:50 |
| VanDyke | I've never been to that channel before | 21:50 |
| nosrednaekim | !hardware | Crashed, look for it in this page | 21:50 |

| intelikey | maybe your nick/ip preceeded you... | 21:51 |
| VanDyke | really strange | 21:51 |
| VanDyke | intelikey: are you in that channel? | 21:51 |
| intelikey | no. | 21:51 |
| Crashed | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimedia | 21:51 |
| Crashed | I'm guessing my card isn't supported? | 21:52 |
| intelikey | VanDyke there is a channel #ubuntu-ops for this sort of thing. | 21:52 |
| VanDyke | I just installed ubuntu 8.04 in my desktop | 21:52 |
| Crashed | If it doesn't work, I'll have to use XP - definately. :( | 21:52 |
| intelikey | and a #ubuntu+1 for that sort of thing | 21:52 |
| VanDyke | intelikey: thx bro | 21:53 |
| intelikey | Crashed use what ever your concious will let you use. mine and the EULA just don't jive. | 21:53 |
| intelikey | VanDyke welcome | 21:54 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: it may have a different chipset, find the exact model with "lspci" | 21:54 |
| intelikey | or lshw | 21:54 |
| Crashed | alright, time to restart to finish the installation. | 21:55 |
| nosrednaekim | c ya! | 21:56 |
| VanDyke | intelikey: got in :P | 21:56 |
| nosrednaekim | VanDyke: FYI... the hardy channel is #ubuntu+1 | 21:57 |
| VanDyke | nosrednaekim: thx :) | 21:58 |
| tzanger | good afternoon | 22:01 |
| tzanger | just a question about linux-image-ume - any benefit to running it on an intel laptop? | 22:02 |
| nosrednaekim | ume? | 22:02 |
| nosrednaekim | never heard of that one | 22:03 |
| nosrednaekim | !find linux-image-ume | 22:03 |
| ubotu | Found: linux-image-ume | 22:03 |
| nosrednaekim | !search linux-image-ume | 22:03 |
| ubotu | Found: | 22:03 |
| nosrednaekim | !info linux-image-ume | 22:03 |

| nosrednaekim | tzanger: nah... don't use that. | 22:03 |
| tzanger | nosrednaekim: ok, I'll just get the source for the regular vesion and turn up things like tickless | 22:04 |
| nosrednaekim | tzanger: k | 22:04 |
| tzanger | thanks :-) | 22:04 |
| Crashed | Meh. | 22:05 |
| Crashed | Yay for installed Kubuntu :) | 22:05 |
| tzanger | actually I will try to set up the latest release of linux... -rt kills hibernate/suspend on this laptop | 22:05 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: coolo :) | 22:05 |
| Crashed | Thanks a lot for all the help, nosrednaekim | 22:06 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: now... you want flash? | 22:06 |
| Crashed | Yeah, I'm working on it right now. | 22:06 |
| nosrednaekim | yeah... you'll have to re grab firefox. | 22:06 |
| Crashed | Already got it, and now it even works! :P | 22:06 |
| nosrednaekim | ah.. one step ahead :) | 22:06 |
| Crashed | These are some killer slow download speeds. | 22:07 |
| Crashed | I need to run a bandwidth test. | 22:07 |
| Crashed | I think my integrated network card is crap on this PC. | 22:07 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: yeah... you'll probably need to switch off of the main Download mirrors. | 22:07 |
| nosrednaekim | or that could be the problem. | 22:07 |
| Crashed | It's a 10/100 card. | 22:07 |
| Crashed | So it *should* be fine. | 22:08 |
| Crashed | Oh cool. | 22:08 |
| Crashed | That was really weird. I started off floating at 50 KB/s (flash install file). | 22:08 |
| Crashed | It went down and floated at 20, but at the very end it was hitting 150 KB/s. | 22:08 |
| nosrednaekim | <_< | 22:09 |
| nosrednaekim | well, the mirrors wouldn't affect the flash DL.. that would be for firefox and other apps | 22:10 |
| Crashed | Is there a graphical process manager, like Windows's task manager? | 22:10 |
| Crashed | Hm. | 22:11 |
| Crashed | One bandwidth test says I was capping at 700 kilobits per second (yeah, kilobits). | 22:11 |
| Crashed | This one says 3000 kilobits, which is the connection I have. | 22:11 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: ctrl+esc | 22:12 |
| nosrednaekim | or maybe alt+esc.. I forget | 22:12 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: you ain't getting no sympaty from me...i'm on dial-up | 22:13 |
| nosrednaekim | ^,^ | 22:13 |
| Crashed | Heh, that must suck. | 22:13 |
| Crashed | You pay your own bills, and/or you live in the middle of no where? | 22:13 |
| nosrednaekim | middle of nowhere | 22:14 |
| Crashed | Yeah, that's the main problem people have. | 22:14 |
| Crashed | No DSL or cable available in their area. | 22:14 |
| Crashed | Cable is as cheap as dial-up these days. | 22:14 |
| Crashed | What kind of game can I run to test out my graphics card's power? | 22:15 |
| nosrednaekim | well, we do have cable avail.... but it costs like $60 as compared to $12 per month for dial-up | 22:15 |
| Crashed | Actually, I should install WINE. | 22:15 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: nah... save that.. try some free linux games. | 22:15 |
| clintc | Crashed: spring-ta will do it | 22:15 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: gl-117 is a sweet combat flight sim | 22:15 |
| Crashed | spring-ta? | 22:15 |
| clintc | Crashed: or scroched 3d | 22:16 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: not sure what games were in the edgy repositories | 22:16 |

| clintc | Crashed: here is a link for spring-ta: http://spring.clan-sy.com/ .. great game if you like rts | 22:20 |
| Crashed | Installing it is pretty complicated. | 22:21 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: run "sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx" | 22:21 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: its a heck of a lot easier in the latest version :) | 22:21 |
| Crashed | Latest version of Kubuntu or spring-ta? | 22:22 |
| Crashed | sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglr | 22:22 |

| BluesKaj | well ,the guy at my ISP support says its quoted in megbits not megabytes | 22:25 |
| Crashed | Alright, it looks like it finished. | 22:25 |
| Crashed | I assume I have to restart now. | 22:25 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: not yet | 22:26 |
| Crashed | Okay... I'll just happily play 'Gangster Life' then :) | 22:26 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75: yes,you can grab it from the repositories.. | 22:26 |
| oloughlin75 | nosrednaekim: When I search for ndis nothing comes up? | 22:26 |
| BluesKaj | Crashed, you on Rogers ? | 22:26 |
| Crashed | I am. | 22:26 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: you need to modify your xorg.conf first (hooray for text file editing) | 22:26 |
| Crashed | Their service is pretty good. | 22:26 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, my son uses them in windsor | 22:27 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75: is this a fresh install? | 22:27 |
| oloughlin75 | Yes | 22:27 |

| oloughlin75 | I am amazed mys ound works out of the box on the alpa release :) | 22:28 |

| Crashed | I don't seem to be getting permission errors by using nano. | 22:29 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: you need to change one thing and add three lines | 22:29 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: you will when you try to save it. | 22:29 |
| Crashed | Good call. | 22:29 |

| oloughlin75 | The frontend is loading I am not sure if it installed it | 22:31 |

| clintc | can anyone suggest a dvd burner they really like? | 22:33 |
| Crashed | I've got some Benq DVD-+RW CD-=RW | 22:33 |

| BluesKaj | Crashed, are you new to Linux or just kubuntu ? | 22:34 |
| Crashed | I hear they're piles of crap, but I've got it anyway! | 22:34 |
| Crashed | BluesKaj: both, really. | 22:34 |
| andreas__ | clintc: get the cheapest. it shouldn't matter | 22:34 |
| Crashed | I've used linux here and there. I do a little SSH sometimes. | 22:34 |
| Crashed | Debian mostly. | 22:34 |
| BluesKaj | welcome to the wonderful world of Kubuntu | 22:34 |
| Crashed | Thanks. You guys are the most helpful people I've ever encountered. | 22:35 |
| hola | samoeone uses virtualbox? | 22:35 |
| andreas__ | free hugs for everyone! | 22:35 |
| nosrednaekim | !helpernack | 22:35 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about helpernack - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:35 |
| nosrednaekim | !helpersnack | 22:35 |
| ubotu | Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 22:35 |
| oloughlin75 | What would I use to get my touchpad up and running properly? It doesnt do draging or scrolling? | 22:36 |
| andreas__ | man synaptics | 22:36 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: and you'll also need to change the driver from the current "ati" to "fglrx" | 22:36 |
| BluesKaj | well we try to help and encourage | 22:36 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: in that file... | 22:36 |
| Crashed | nosrednaekim: is it only adding those 3 lines? | 22:36 |
| Crashed | Oh, I see. | 22:36 |
| nosrednaekim | and changing the driver from ati to fglrx | 22:37 |
| Crashed | A search for 'driver' did not return anything. | 22:37 |
| andreas__ | oloughlin75: you'll have to edit xorg.conf / configure X11 properly with some tool | 22:37 |
| Crashed | A search for 'ati' came up with random words with 'ati' in it. | 22:38 |
| oloughlin75 | andreas__: For the touchpad? | 22:38 |
| andreas__ | oloughlin75, yes | 22:38 |
| oloughlin75 | Alright ksynaptics wont work? | 22:38 |
| andreas__ | in standard mode it emulates a simple mouse, but with the synaptics driver you will have all the features | 22:39 |
| Crashed | nosrednaekim: sorry, but what exactly am I supposed to do? | 22:39 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: its in Section "Device" | 22:39 |
| Crashed | Driver"vesa" | 22:39 |
| Crashed | That? | 22:39 |
| nosrednaekim | yeah. | 22:39 |
| Crashed | Ah. | 22:39 |
| nosrednaekim | change vesa to fglrx | 22:39 |
| andreas__ | ksynaptics needs afaik the synaptics driver loaded ( with a option to share some memory ) | 22:39 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: sorry, you must have installed in safe-graphics mode | 22:39 |
| Crashed | Save, close, reboot? | 22:39 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: yeah.... but before you do, some instruction on what to do if X doesn't come up on reboot. | 22:40 |
| Crashed | Revert the changes using the command line? | 22:40 |
| BluesKaj | Crashed, which ati graphics do you have ?,, in the terminal : lspci | grep video , if your not sure. | 22:40 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: boot recovery mode, and edit that file, changing the fglrx back to vesa | 22:40 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: precisely | 22:40 |
| Crashed | Alright. | 22:40 |
| nosrednaekim | hopefully that shouldn't neccesary though | 22:41 |
| Crashed | BluesKaj: nothing was returned from that command. But I have an ATI X800XL | 22:41 |
| oloughlin75 | andreas__: How do I get the driver to load? | 22:41 |
| andreas__ | edit xorg.conf | 22:41 |
| andreas__ | Section Input Device | 22:42 |
| Crashed | Alright, rebooting. | 22:42 |
| oloughlin75 | What do you use to edit it? Kate? | 22:42 |
| andreas__ | i'm almost sure kubuntu has some tool for that, but i don't know of any | 22:42 |
| andreas__ | sorry | 22:42 |
| nosrednaekim | andreas__: not the version he isusing | 22:43 |
| hola | samoeone uses virtualbox? | 22:43 |

| oloughlin75 | Hey | 22:44 |
| JavaBeans | Has the issue of the lost window decorations in OpenOffice been solved yet? | 22:44 |
| nosrednaekim | hey JavaBeans | 22:44 |
| nosrednaekim | JavaBeans: with compiz? yes | 22:44 |
| JavaBeans | Ah! Perfect | 22:44 |
| Crashed | That was a quick reboot. | 22:44 |
| nosrednaekim | JavaBeans: go to #compiz,I forget the exact fix | 22:44 |
| JavaBeans | Thanks alot guys | 22:45 |
| JavaBeans | :-D | 22:45 |
| Crashed | nosrednaekim: looks like there's no problems. | 22:45 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: run "glxinfo"and see if you have to Direct rendering | 22:45 |
| andreas__ | oloughlin75, open xorg.conf , look for a inputdevice section and replace in the line with "Driver" whatever stands there with synaptics. for further information 'man 4 synaptics' could be helpful | 22:45 |
| andreas__ | got to go. seeya | 22:45 |
| Crashed | A bunch of crap is outputted, but it all looks like opengl | 22:45 |
| Crashed | Ah, direct rendering: yes :) | 22:46 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: look at the first 5 lines or so | 22:46 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: ok... great, that was relavtively easy :) | 22:46 |
| oloughlin75 | Thanks andreas | 22:46 |
| Crashed | Woot! | 22:46 |
| Crashed | nosrednaekim: how about WINE now? | 22:46 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: go ahead :)... but we don't support the actual installation of windows apps here, you have to go to #winehq for that. | 22:47 |
| nosrednaekim | mostly cause none of us here knows a thing about it :) | 22:47 |
| Crashed | Hehe | 22:47 |
| Crashed | How would I install WINE though, apt-get install wine? | 22:48 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: put please try some free linux games first.... bzflag, gl-117, tremulous.... etc | 22:48 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: yup... there is a nice GUI frontend for apt too, called adept_manager | 22:48 |
| Crashed | I came across adept manager already. | 22:48 |
| Crashed | It kept throwing itself on my screen. | 22:48 |
| nosrednaekim | lol | 22:48 |
| nosrednaekim | that would be adept_updater | 22:49 |
| Crashed | Ah | 22:49 |
| Crashed | Well, that install wine command failed. | 22:49 |
| oloughlin75 | where is xorg.conf located? | 22:49 |
| Crashed | Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package | 22:49 |
| Crashed | locate xorg.conf | 22:49 |

| Crashed | To install Wine. | 23:06 |
| oloughlin75 | I added "Driver" synaptics and it didnt affect the mouse function at all | 23:06 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: really, all you have to do is edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and get rid of the comments in front of the repositories you want to enable | 23:06 |
| europlant | http://www.themothmanlives.com/ | 23:06 |
| nosrednaekim | comments ==a # sign | 23:06 |
| oloughlin75 | so i tried running the touchpad thing and it told me to add something, and not x isnt working | 23:06 |

| Crashed | Hey, I'd like to know why Kubuntu is making my speakers beep randomly. | 23:16 |
| oloughlin75 | right now the touchpad, i set the driver to synaptics in the xorg.conf, and i ran a utility that told me to add something else, which broke xorg | 23:17 |
| Crashed | Noo! My exe failed :( | 23:17 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: did you add "SHM" to your xorg.conf? | 23:17 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: yeah... wine is not very reliable | 23:17 |
| oloughlin75 | Thats what I tried, and thats what broke it | 23:17 |
| oloughlin75 | is it JUST "SHM"? | 23:18 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: are you still having problems? | 23:18 |
| oloughlin75 | I am up and running, but I couldnt get the UI before | 23:18 |
| oloughlin75 | i add "SHMConfig" | 23:18 |
| nosrednaekim | Crashed: I have to go.... good luck with Linux :) | 23:18 |
| oloughlin75 | should it be just "SHM"? | 23:19 |
| ignoramus | no- you should add "Options" > "SHMconfig" > "on" | 23:19 |
| Crashed | nosrednaekim: thanks a lot with all the help. | 23:19 |
| oloughlin75 | where? | 23:19 |
| Crashed | I'll try to figure this out on my own :) | 23:19 |

| ignoramus | [mfk] prolly someone :) what's the problem? | 23:25 |
| sayucyof | lol | 23:25 |
| sayucyof | [mfk]: you used linux only? | 23:27 |
| [mfk] | i've installed from Wubi Kubuntu 7.10 on my USB-HDD, i cannot make the bootup on it because my motherboard doesn't support the bootup on USB device..however, i want to cancel the MBR, and then retry to install it (from the Lice CD) | 23:27 |
| [mfk] | (*Live!) | 23:27 |
| [mfk] | no i've windows xp on hd0 | 23:28 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: so you want to partition your internal HDD, right? | 23:28 |
| [mfk] | no.. | 23:29 |
| [mfk] | i want to install it on my external HDD | 23:29 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: hmm... i see the dilemma... :/ | 23:29 |
| [mfk] | but i want to cancel the MBR of the previous installation and understand where to install the bootloader during the next installation | 23:29 |
| oloughlin75 | ignoramus: I just added your xorg.conf info for the touchpad and it hasnt done anything? | 23:30 |
| sayucyof | need usb boot | 23:30 |
| blizzzek | gn8 | 23:31 |
| [mfk] | yes i know but i've read it's possible to make a bootable cd that make the bootup on the USB device | 23:31 |
| oloughlin75 | The touchpad thing I downloaded still tells me Shared Memory not accessible, please add SHMConfig on... | 23:31 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: you restarted x? | 23:31 |

| founder_ | Hi | 23:32 |
| mixed | can anyone recommend me an open source DB? | 23:32 |
| [mfk] | database? | 23:32 |
| Dr_willis | MySQL | 23:33 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 23:33 |
| [mfk] | exatly :) | 23:33 |
| heinkel_111 | mixed: MySQL | 23:33 |
| [mfk] | exactly :) | 23:33 |
| oloughlin75 | Ok | 23:33 |
| oloughlin75 | ignoramus: http://pastebin.org/18972 is my xorg | 23:33 |
| heinkel_111 | unless you need something very secure for a high number of users | 23:33 |
| mixed | is there any specific reason why you would prefer MySQL over postGRE? | 23:33 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: i think i see the problem.. hang on | 23:34 |
| oloughlin75 | Ok | 23:34 |
| themonotone | sqlite or postgresql | 23:34 |
| themonotone | :-D | 23:34 |
| ignoramus | i've found that mysql sometimes is a resource hog (it managed my Amarok db) | 23:35 |
| themonotone | I'm a fan of sqlite honestly :-) no need to setup a db and have yet another login | 23:35 |
| [mfk] | ignoramus: i'm printing it, i'm going to bed and i'll read it | 23:36 |
| mixed | ignoramus, so which DB you would recommend? | 23:37 |
| [mfk] | ingoramus: perhaps i'll make kubuntu dreams ;) however thanks. i believe this will help me to understand more about Kubuntu | 23:37 |
| [mfk] | goodnight to everybody | 23:37 |
| ignoramus | dr_willis is the better source, but i've had better luck with sqlite | 23:37 |
| Dr_willis | Ive only used mysql with Mythtv | 23:37 |
| sayucyof | [mfk]: wait | 23:37 |
| [mfk] | okay | 23:37 |
| Dr_willis | Which to use - deopends on your needs. | 23:38 |
| [mfk] | sayucyof: okay :) | 23:38 |
| oloughlin75 | ignoramus: Do you see what m problem is/? | 23:38 |
| sayucyof | why you dont want install mbr? | 23:38 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: see if adding this to your xorg.conf helps > http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55546/ | 23:38 |
| mixed | themonotone, would you know which DB is most widely use, open source wise? | 23:38 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: once added, you just have to restart X (Ctrl+Alt+Bkspc) to put it into effect | 23:39 |
| sayucyof | if you know MBR fix command | 23:39 |
| themonotone | sure, bdb | 23:39 |
| sayucyof | fdisk /mbr on windows cmd | 23:39 |
| themonotone | its used on probably every unix box known to man by some program or other :-) | 23:39 |
| [mfk] | i simply want to cancel the MBR created on the installation of Kubuntu from Wubi! | 23:39 |
| [mfk] | sayucyof: i've tried but nothing, when i rebot i re-have the same MBR, cannot understand why! | 23:40 |
| [mfk] | i've tried also fixmbr command in dos | 23:41 |
| sayucyof | boot from hd0? | 23:41 |
| [mfk] | yes the mbr is on hd0 | 23:41 |
| [mfk] | it was installed there automatically from wubi | 23:42 |
| === paulj1 is now known as pauljw | ||
| === ubuntu is now known as Odysseas | ||
| [mfk] | i cannot understand why! | 23:43 |
| Dr_willis | i dident think wubi used a mbr. I thought it some how alteree the windows boot files/configs.. but ive never used wubi. only read a little about it. | 23:43 |
| [mfk] | mhmh... | 23:43 |
| [mfk] | it's an enigma | 23:43 |
| [mfk] | i want my previous MBR back | 23:44 |
| sayucyof | lol | 23:44 |
| [mfk] | than try to reinstall it | 23:44 |
| [mfk] | yes, lol! | 23:44 |
| mefisto__ | error when trying to start konqueror or kaffeine: Inconsistency detected by ld.so: ../sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h: 550: elf_machine_rel_relative: Assertion `((reloc->r_info) & 0xff) == 8' failed! | 23:45 |
| ignoramus | dr_willis: you think Super Grub Disk could help him? | 23:45 |
| Dr_willis | No idea, if wubi altered the xp/whatever boot ini files.. I dont see how. | 23:45 |
| sayucyof | http://wubi.sourceforge.net/faq.php | 23:46 |
| sayucyof | read here | 23:46 |
| Dr_willis | If it truely altered the mbr, then 'fdisk /mbr' should of installed the normal windows mbr. | 23:46 |
| [mfk] | exactly, should!!! | 23:46 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: what kind of output do you get when running fdisk? | 23:47 |
| Dr_willis | i would have to say - check the wubi docs on what it does. - I did not think it messed with the mbr. | 23:47 |
| [mfk] | ignoramus: nothing! | 23:47 |
| oloughlin75 | SOOO easy to plunge into command line! | 23:48 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: did you get your touchpad working? | 23:49 |
| oloughlin75 | ignoramus: Thank you a lot alot! Mouse works! | 23:49 |
| [mfk] | god | 23:49 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: good! :) | 23:49 |
| [mfk] | i believe it was the easiest thing of the world | 23:49 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: did you say you have windows on the internal hdd? xp or vista? | 23:49 |
| oloughlin75 | ignoramus: I had to take out the lin that you used that specified the ocnfigured mouse-- i erased that input device | 23:49 |
| [mfk] | XP! | 23:50 |
| oloughlin75 | thanks a ton for the help | 23:50 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: you should be able to use the XP Recovery part of the install disc to fix mbr, right? | 23:50 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: no problem | 23:50 |
| [mfk] | ignoramus & Dr_willis: i didn't disinstalled WUBI!!!! I'm really a dull! | 23:50 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: dude, calm down. what I'm saying is, "Do you have your XP install disc handy?" | 23:51 |
| [mfk] | yes i've tried it from my installation cd | 23:51 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: if so, you should be able to insert the disc, and go through the recovery process to "Repair Windows" - it will overwrite your messed up mbr | 23:52 |
| [mfk] | i've done it but i'm supposing the problem is because i haven't disinstalled Wubi! | 23:52 |
| [mfk] | i try to reboot and i come back here | 23:52 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: wubi's not even on that hdd! | 23:53 |
| ignoramus | jeeze. | 23:53 |
| mixed | how do you install synaptic? | 23:53 |
| mixed | forget it, it's already installed LoL | 23:53 |
| oloughlin75 | One more question, how do I install w32codecs? It is telling me it is referenced by another package | 23:54 |
| ubuntu | hi | 23:54 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: sudo apt-get install w32codecs | 23:54 |
| ignoramus | ;) | 23:54 |
| sayucyof | :) | 23:55 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: oh, i didn't see that last part... does it say what package? | 23:55 |
| europlant | Thanks you to nosrednaekim, ubotu (robot:) and Crashed for advise of install skype, it is easy | 23:56 |
| [mfk] | mates i've solved!! | 23:56 |
| [mfk] | it was Wubi!! | 23:57 |
| ignoramus | oloughlin75: try running "sudo apt-get -f install" | 23:57 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: how did you fix it? | 23:57 |
| [mfk] | now the MBR is returned as previuosly: when i've disinstalled Wubi i've seen it cancelled a file in c: called kubuntu.mbr, i believe this file was call at the boot from the boot.ini, a kind of .css into the .htm! | 23:58 |
| [mfk] | i'ìve simply unistalled Wubi :) | 23:58 |
| ignoramus | [mfk]: facepalm.jpg | 23:58 |
| [mfk] | the easiest things are always the most difficult to understand! | 23:59 |
