| sca344 | remember the name like DVD but put a e after each letter | 01:04 |
| sca344 | i am having it create the dvd files | 01:04 |

| Dr_willis | the time to make a .iso from the files is minimal | 01:05 |
| will00 | ello, im havin an issue with amarok, anyone feel like givin me a hand? | 01:05 |
| Dr_willis | it proberly takes it 2-3 min to make the .iso | 01:05 |
| Dr_willis | but its easier to just tell k3b to burn an iso image. then selecting the files | 01:06 |
| Dr_willis | and k3b would have to make the iso anyway | 01:06 |
| arcticpenguin380 | will using JFSs improve speed | 01:06 |
| will00 | i try to start amarok, and the process starts, but the specific window with my playlist and everything doesnt start | 01:07 |
| will00 | anyone got any ideas? | 01:07 |
| valery | hello. I need help. i must hide cursor, where X11 load. But I can't do it. help please. | 01:08 |
| will00 | does anyone know what would make a process start but the window not open | 01:09 |

| default_op | biovore: no I mean dfirefox tries to open php files from remote site | 02:40 |
| default_op | biovore: rather then wait for ht esite to deliver the scripts results | 02:40 |
| biovore | default_op: yes.. thats do to a webserver miss configuration.. the php is server side.. not client | 02:40 |
| Dragnslcr | default_op- PHP scripts normally send regular HTML content | 02:41 |
| Dragnslcr | The browser has nothing to do with it | 02:41 |
| biovore | default_op: webserver is supose to run the php and send its output to the client.. | 02:41 |
| Dragnslcr | The browser can't even really know that PHP generated the HTML | 02:41 |
| arcticpenguin380 | did kubuntu patch that kernel vurablity? | 02:43 |
| biovore | yup | 02:44 |
| prince_jammys | default_op: what happens when you go here www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=616183 | 02:45 |
| prince_jammys | computer exploded | 02:46 |
| default_op | biovore: &FDrag ok thanks. I get it now | 02:49 |
| default_op | prince_jammys: it opens it | 02:49 |
| default_op | it seems when there isn't any attributes after the .php then it trys to download the file | 02:50 |
| prince_jammys | default_op: delete the stuff after question mark and try it | 02:51 |
| prince_jammys | default_op: including the ? | 02:51 |
| prince_jammys | default_op: what you can't do is save a php file and expect it to open | 02:52 |
| prince_jammys | default_op: actually, you can sorry | 02:53 |
| prince_jammys | default_op: you can't expect a php script is what i meant | 02:53 |
| prince_jammys | the php extension just tells the server on their end to parse the file for any php, then substitutes the php with html output of the server-side php script ... on your end you only get html | 02:55 |
| FX | Hullo? | 03:02 |
| FX | anyone running awn? | 03:02 |
| nosrednaekim | hey FX | 03:02 |
| FX | if so with my intel x3100 vid card can I run it? | 03:02 |
| Arwen | yes | 03:03 |
| Arwen | but why you would want icons bouncing over your desktop is an entirely different question | 03:03 |
| FX | Ok are there directions out there for dummies on getting it running? | 03:04 |
| FX | lmao | 03:04 |
| FX | I'm not sure, really. | 03:04 |
| nosrednaekim | FX yeah.. search google | 03:05 |
| regeya | Arwen: one of the first thigns I shut off in os x is the bouncing; awn can be set up to not bounce. | 03:05 |
| regeya | FX: there's instructions on launchpad | 03:05 |
| regeya | FX: one word of caution: it's REEEEEALLY aimed at gnome | 03:06 |
| FX | ah well then I'll pass on it and just wait until KDE4 becomes more stable | 03:06 |
| FX | I used 4 a little but it didn't look really done yet. | 03:06 |
| redshadowhero | Is there a virtual machine app for kubuntu? | 03:14 |
| crweb | qtemu | 03:14 |
| Dragnslcr | qemu, kvm | 03:14 |
| nosrednaekim | virtualbox is good | 03:14 |
| redshadowhero | alright, thanks. | 03:15 |
| redshadowhero | I have a user that *has* to have windows 98 on his personal machine.. | 03:15 |
| Dragnslcr | Ouch | 03:15 |
| redshadowhero | I know.. >,> | 03:15 |
| nosrednaekim | 200 won't do? | 03:15 |
| nosrednaekim | 2000 | 03:16 |
| nosrednaekim | 98 dosn't work well in VM's from what I have seen | 03:16 |
| redshadowhero | He's a guy I'm comfortable enough to tell him that he's stupid. | 03:16 |
| redshadowhero | Ah.. well... that sucks.. | 03:16 |
| nosrednaekim | redshadowhero » you can give it a shot though. | 03:17 |
| redshadowhero | which one is the easiest for a computer-illiterate person? | 03:17 |
| nosrednaekim | virtualbox | 03:17 |
| BluesKaj | redshadowhero, let's just say your friend needs to get out of his rut and into this century :) | 03:17 |
| nosrednaekim | redshadowhero » you can even do seamless virtualization with virtualbox | 03:17 |
| redshadowhero | Well, he refuses to buy another version.. he's a cheap guy.. | 03:17 |
| vers | how do i do a virus search? | 03:17 |
| nosrednaekim | vers » virus search? there are no viruses for Linux | 03:18 |
| vers | sweet | 03:18 |
| vers | i thought so but wasnt sure.... | 03:18 |
| vers | thanks | 03:18 |
| BluesKaj | cheap..that's just plain miserly | 03:19 |
| redshadowhero | yeah... but I get to stay here for free as long as I fix his computers. | 03:19 |
| vers | so i just should just keep up with the updates and i should be on point? | 03:19 |
| redshadowhero | well, fix them to his specs. | 03:19 |
| jerware | umm... yea. When i fullscreen streaming video it's skippy. | 03:23 |
| jerware | i use firefox | 03:23 |
| jerware | fullscreening invokes xine. but xine can play dvd's fine. why not streaming vids ? | 03:23 |
| oloughlin75 | jerware: could be your bandwidth | 03:24 |
| jerware | no | 03:24 |
| BluesKaj | jerware, perhaps your stream is being interrupted | 03:24 |
| jerware | by what? | 03:24 |
| jerware | my 3 other room mates, (who run windows) can play streaming vids fine. | 03:24 |
| BluesKaj | buffering isn't fast enuff to keep up | 03:24 |
| jerware | such as youtube | 03:25 |
| FuriousMojo | dumb question | 03:25 |
| FuriousMojo | how do I access my floppy disk? | 03:25 |
| nosrednaekim | FuriousMojo » pop it in? | 03:25 |
| oloughlin75 | stick it in and go to wherever its mounted | 03:26 |
| nosrednaekim | !floppy | 03:26 |
| ubotu | To mount floppy disks, see here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone | 03:26 |
| oloughlin75 | usually /media/xxx | 03:26 |
| oloughlin75 | i havent seen a floppy in years | 03:26 |
| FuriousMojo | was tryign to get the HDD on my promise card to recognize | 03:27 |
| FuriousMojo | getting the damn uid 1000 error | 03:27 |
| nosrednaekim | FuriousMojo » "sudo chmod -R a+x mountpoint" usually fixes that | 03:27 |
| FuriousMojo | nosrednaekim: just run that? | 03:28 |
| FuriousMojo | nosrednaekim: what does that do? what tells it to do whatever it is doing to the floppy? | 03:29 |
| Shirakawasuna | hey, does kubuntu use knetworkmanager by default/is it easy to set up? I'm thinking of switching but I needs my easy network switching | 03:29 |
| nosrednaekim | FuriousMojo » uhh never mind.... follow the directions in that wikipage | 03:30 |
| FuriousMojo | nosrednaekim: ok, thanks | 03:30 |
| Shirakawasuna | also, does it have the irritating issue I've had since gentoo/archlinux, where it takes 2-3 attempts to stick to an AP? | 03:30 |
| nosrednaekim | Shirakawasuna » yes, knetworkmanager is used by default (for better or worse) | 03:31 |
| Shirakawasuna | nosrednaekim: for better! | 03:31 |
| Liono | where can i learn how to script commands in linux, what are ways to make bash scripts and execute them in different manner? | 03:32 |
| nosrednaekim | !scripts | 03:32 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about scripts - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:32 |
| andrew__ | Has anyone had trouble ripping Led Zeppelins Mothership with K3b disc one works but not disc 2 | 03:32 |
| BluesKaj | !bash | 03:32 |
| ubotu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 03:32 |
| nosrednaekim | Liono » let me find you a good bash tutorial | 03:32 |
| andrew__ | It skips as soon as I try to play it | 03:32 |
| jerware | classic shell scripting is a good book | 03:33 |
| andrew__ | I'm encoding to ogg BTW | 03:33 |
| Liono | nosrednaekim thanks | 03:33 |
| nosrednaekim | Liono » http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ | 03:33 |
| oloughlin75 | kde4 seems slow | 03:34 |
| Liono | nosrednaekim you learned all from it? | 03:34 |
| nosrednaekim | Liono » I don't know how to bash script :) | 03:34 |
| FX | I'm trying to figure out how to edit the menu in kde4 | 03:34 |
| * BluesKaj begins to nod off...nite all | 03:34 | |
| Liono | :)\ | 03:34 |
| nosrednaekim | FX » the simple menu cannot be edited | 03:34 |
| FX | well that blows. lol | 03:34 |
| nosrednaekim | Liono » I can do anything that can be done in bash in python though | 03:35 |
| nosrednaekim | FX » except! if you edit the kde3 menu, which seems to transfer the settings | 03:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | Liono: you could also try installing gentoo on some old box | 03:35 |
| Liono | ok | 03:35 |
| nosrednaekim | so running "kmenuedit" might be your best bet | 03:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | Liono: it takes you through all the basics just to install the bugger | 03:35 |
| oloughlin75 | nosrednaekim: then whats the menu editor for? | 03:35 |
| Liono | nosrednaekim Shirakawasuna can you help me with my loging problem? | 03:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | Liono: possibly | 03:35 |
| FuriousMojo | so... | 03:35 |
| elfshadow | Does anyone know why filetransfer halt when I try to copy oggs off a CD??? | 03:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | Liono: what's it doing? | 03:36 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75 » kickoff | 03:36 |
| FuriousMojo | Here's my fstab file | 03:36 |
| FuriousMojo | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56578/ | 03:36 |
| elfshadow | *halts | 03:36 |
| FuriousMojo | I still can't see anything on it :-( | 03:36 |
| FuriousMojo | Do I need to restart anything after changing that file? | 03:36 |
| elfshadow | I think it has something to do with the stuff that KB3 shut off to rip??? | 03:36 |
| Liono | Shirakawasuna nosrednaekim - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=699029 | 03:37 |
| elfshadow | when KB3 shuts off things to rip it start working | 03:37 |
| elfshadow | *starts | 03:37 |
| FX | kmenuedit doesn't do anything and I don't see a terminal icon either. :( | 03:37 |
| spikemcc | is there a msn client that actually just work on linux ... all ones that i have tried don't start ... | 03:38 |
| ChaosMachine | spikemcc, have you tried aMSN? | 03:38 |
| Shirakawasuna | Liono: dunno, sorry. I use a different distro and running stuff at boot depends on the script system, which is distro-specific | 03:38 |
| Liono | Shirakawasuna its about kde and screen saver problem | 03:39 |
| oloughlin75 | theres to much.... pizaz in kde4 with the effects on | 03:39 |
| spikemcc | pidgin amsn kopete and kmess all don't work | 03:39 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75 » you obviously wouldn't like compiz then | 03:40 |
| oloughlin75 | nosrednaekim: just the exploding windows | 03:40 |
| oloughlin75 | its over the top | 03:40 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75 » turn them off :) | 03:40 |
| FX | I'm still trying to figure out where everything is in 4 | 03:40 |
| oloughlin75 | nvm, its the fall apart, not the explosion | 03:40 |
| oloughlin75 | explosion isnt quite as much | 03:41 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75 » did you eventually get compiz working? | 03:41 |
| oloughlin75 | nosrednaekim: yeah, until i restarted | 03:42 |
| unagi | is there an expression in the terminal for current directory | 03:42 |
| unagi | ie mkisofs -o myiso.iso expression? | 03:42 |
| oloughlin75 | nosrednaekim: then i lost keyboard and couldnt click, only move | 03:42 |
| nosrednaekim | unagi » "." | 03:42 |
| unagi | with or without quotes | 03:42 |
| nosrednaekim | unagi » shouldn't matter, but without works | 03:43 |
| unagi | ty | 03:43 |
| unagi | is that python? | 03:43 |
| nosrednaekim | unagi » no... thats bash | 03:44 |

| oloughlin75 | nosrednaekim: is there a way to configure the taskbar in kde4? | 03:46 |
| nosrednaekim | Pici » thanks:) | 03:46 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75 » nope | 03:46 |

| oloughlin75 | cant even move i? | 03:46 |
| oloughlin75 | it | 03:46 |
| oloughlin75 | double lines? | 03:46 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75 » yeah.. you can move it.... remove it and then put a new one in the location you want it. | 03:46 |
| unagi | kopete crashes on me too much =( | 03:46 |

| mixed | I'm about to boot up using a live CD, how would I mount my SATA drive so I can configure grub? | 04:13 |
| DarthFrog | mixed: It's probably already mounted. | 04:14 |
| mixed | DarthFrog --- im going to boot up using a LIVE CD | 04:14 |
| DarthFrog | Right. | 04:14 |
| DarthFrog | It'll probably be /media/sda or somesuch. | 04:15 |
| mixed | DarthFrog ok so then I could just sudo -i and edit menu.lst then | 04:15 |
| DarthFrog | Should work fine. | 04:16 |
| mixed | DarthFrog, is sda used for SATA drives only? I only have one SATA drive but it's showing up as sda2 and sda3 | 04:17 |
| mixed | DarthFrog, it looks like my devices are mounted twice LoL | 04:17 |
| DarthFrog | sda would also be used for SCSI drives. | 04:18 |
| DarthFrog | sda2 and sda3 are partitions on sda. | 04:18 |
| mixed | DarthFrog, that makes sense, I have quite a few partitions | 04:18 |
| DarthFrog | /dev/sda is the whole drive. | 04:18 |
| mixed | DarthFrog, I just booted up my old machine, im going to reboot this one, be back in a second | 04:19 |
| DarthFrog | and /dev/sdb would be your second SCSI/SATA drive. | 04:19 |
| DarthFrog | Have fun. | 04:19 |
| mixed | LoL be back in a sec | 04:19 |
| unagi | sigh, anyone know how to get the touchpad to turn off when im typing | 04:28 |
| DarthFrog | unagi: You used to be able to just disable the Synaptics driver but I've not figured out yet how Xorg handles that abomination. | 04:29 |
| DarthFrog | <= hates touchpads, especially on his laptop. | 04:29 |
| unagi | DarthFrog: i dont want it off all the time | 04:31 |
| DarthFrog | Neither would I. However, I normally have a mouse attached when I use the laptop. | 04:31 |
| unagi | id like it to just shut off when im typing | 04:32 |
| unagi | like most OS do | 04:32 |
| abortd | is super karamba gone | 04:32 |

| abortd | man | 04:33 |
| abortd | i've been away from this for too long | 04:33 |
| oloughlin75 | superkaramba is like widgets, compiz is a window manager | 04:33 |
| abortd | what was the one for gnome? | 04:34 |
| abortd | or wait | 04:34 |

| abortd | thing | 04:34 |
| abortd | beryl maybe? | 04:34 |
| oloughlin75 | compiz and beryl both work on gnome and kde | 04:34 |
| oloughlin75 | compiz | 04:35 |
| abortd | ah | 04:35 |
| oloughlin75 | beryl merged or something, im not sure | 04:35 |
| abortd | i need to remember how i got that to work | 04:35 |
| oloughlin75 | !compiz | abortd | 04:35 |
| ubotu | abortd: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion | 04:35 |
| abortd | i remember i think it took me alot of bs | 04:35 |
| oloughlin75 | uhh | 04:35 |
| oloughlin75 | install and run 2 commands | 04:36 |
| ForgeAus | grr this gentoo-izing my interix is starting to get messy | 04:36 |
| abortd | i dont think it was that easy last time | 04:36 |
| abortd | i have always had display issues | 04:36 |
| ForgeAus | apparently I can debianize it thats another option | 04:36 |
| oloughlin75 | compiz always gives me problems, but it works for some | 04:36 |
| ForgeAus | and apt-get has to be simpler than portage | 04:36 |
| oloughlin75 | apt-get instal programname | 04:36 |
| ForgeAus | compiz can be like that oloughlin | 04:36 |
| oloughlin75 | install* | 04:37 |
| oloughlin75 | follow the link | 04:37 |
| oloughlin75 | theres a couple more things you need | 04:37 |
| === gota__ is now known as gota | ||
| biovore | compiz is very picky about what hardware you run it on.. | 04:37 |
| ForgeAus | interix comes with basically nothing... its so barebones | 04:37 |

| Liono_ | pam is the pluggable authentication modules framework used by some unix(-ish) systems. it logs unsuccessful screen unlock events but not succesful ones in auth.log. i need succesful ones too. can i replace this pam with the one that does logs? or any other solutions -- ? | 04:53 |
| jcgkffycs | does any one know where Xvnc is? I am trying to follow a tutorial on ubuntu forums on getting xrdp working, xrdp relies on xvnc, it says to just apt-get install Xvnc, Ive tried Xvnc, and xvnc, and apt-cache search vnc, and there doesn't seem to pe an xvnc package in the repos, anyone know? | 04:59 |
| setuid_w00t | I keep getting this error in my mail.log file from dovecot: "Time just moved backwards by 9 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards" | 05:00 |
| setuid_w00t | The wiki page indicates that something is probably changing my clock, but I don't know what it is. Any ideas? | 05:01 |
| dthacker | jcg | 05:02 |
| dthacker | jcgkffycs: an adept search on vnc shows many results..... | 05:03 |
| dthacker | vncserver, vncviewer may be appropriate | 05:03 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: do you have ntpd running on your machine? | 05:04 |
| Agent_bob | ntpd ? a network time server ? | 05:05 |
| setuid_w00t | dthacker: no, but ntpdate is installed. I am going to try to remove it (even though it's part of ubuntu-minimal) | 05:06 |
| dthacker | Agent_bob: yep | 05:06 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: is ntpdate running on cron? if not, leave it be | 05:06 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: ntpdate does not run automatically and is probably not resetting your time | 05:07 |
| dthacker | !ntpd | 05:07 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ntpd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:07 |
| Agent_bob | i've never thought of setting up a network time server ubuntu linux is so sloppy about time i wouldn't dare use it for a time server | 05:07 |
| setuid_w00t | dthacker: I don't see it in cron | 05:08 |
| dthacker | Agent_bob: you sync your local server against others | 05:08 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: ok, how often are you getting this error? | 05:09 |
| Agent_bob | yeah but, i mean; i have had 9 computers that the cmos clocks kept time well while powered off or running that other os. but couldn't keep time for a day with ubuntu linux | 05:09 |
| dthacker | Agent_bob: and that's why I run a time server. | 05:10 |
| Agent_bob | i finally started making /etc/adjtime /etc/localtime symlinks to /dev/null and not installing ntpdate they stopped messing with the hardware clock | 05:10 |
| setuid_w00t | dthacker: every time I restart, so I think it may be startup related | 05:10 |
| Agent_bob | i'm more of a "get rid of the problem" kinda guy. than a "just add more processes to cover up the problem" kinda guy | 05:11 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: how far apart are your hwclock and your system time? | 05:12 |
| setuid_w00t | dthacker: how can I check? | 05:13 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: hwclock;date | 05:13 |
| jcgkffycs | whoops, my bad, turns out vnc4server actually contains xvnc | 05:13 |
| sjck | hey, where can i setup the column of konqueror (name size type group..)? | 05:15 |
| setuid_w00t | dthacker: about 11 seconds | 05:15 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: as the Dixie Chicks would say: "There's your trouble" | 05:15 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: man hwclock to tell how to set it, then head out to http://time.gov to get a good time to set it against | 05:17 |
| setuid_w00t | dthacker: I'll try that | 05:17 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: does your isp have a time server? | 05:17 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: for instance, I use ntp.cox.net | 05:18 |

| dthacker | ooo, shiny! | 05:20 |
| Liono_ | pam is the pluggable authentication modules framework used by some unix(-ish) systems. it logs unsuccessful screen unlock events but not succesful ones in auth.log. i need succesful ones too. can i replace this pam with the one that does logs? or any other solutions -- ? | 05:20 |
| dthacker | Liono: does pam have a log config file? | 05:21 |
| Agent_bob | pam has config files yes | 05:22 |
| dthacker | That's where I'd start my treasure hunt. | 05:24 |
| sjck | how do i get my toolbar back when i clicked on hide toolbar? :( | 05:25 |
| Agent_bob | visit the edge of the screen | 05:25 |
| sjck | what you mean? | 05:26 |
| Agent_bob | move the mouse to the edge where kicker went | 05:27 |
| Agent_bob | if it don't show up on it's own look for the small handle and click it. | 05:27 |
| ^CatMan^ | how do i schedule a playlist to open and play at a specified time? | 05:27 |
| Agent_bob | ^CatMan^ ummm at ? | 05:28 |
| sjck | sorry, I cant see what you mean | 05:28 |
| ^CatMan^ | i've read all of the "at" man pages, they are no help | 05:28 |
| ^CatMan^ | if they were, i wouldn't be here | 05:28 |
| Agent_bob | sjck ok then make sure kicker is running. alt+f2 kicker | 05:28 |
| setuid_w00t | dthacker: The two times are the same now, so hopefully the error will go away now. Thanks | 05:29 |
| sjck | that works | 05:29 |
| sjck | but i dont see how that gives me back the toolbar | 05:30 |
| dthacker | ^CatMan^ what about "at" is causing you a problem? | 05:32 |
| dthacker | setuid_w00t: np, and thank | 05:32 |
| dthacker | Agent_bob for the nifty script.... | 05:32 |
| ^CatMan^ | it keeps coming back "invalid options last token seen k | 05:32 |
| dthacker | ^CatMan^: what program are you using to play music? | 05:33 |
| Tinason | could anyone recommend a widget program, like a karamba / plasma alternative? | 05:33 |
| ^CatMan^ | kaffeine | 05:33 |
| Agent_bob | ^CatMan^ i haven't used at in years and only a few times then. but the time must be the last thing on the commandline | 05:33 |
| Agent_bob | at -f script.sh 00:12 | 05:34 |
| Agent_bob | something like that. | 05:34 |
| ^CatMan^ | isn't there a graphical interface for scheduling with at? | 05:34 |
| dthacker | ^CatMan^: Can you start kaffeine from the command line and tell it to play a specific list? | 05:34 |
| Agent_bob | yes there is. | 05:34 |
| ^CatMan^ | dthacker: yeah, that works just fine | 05:34 |
| ^CatMan^ | i just can't get at to do it | 05:34 |
| dthacker | ^CatMan^: then you are most of the way there. | 05:35 |
| Agent_bob | ^CatMan^ there is also cron but that's overkill if you don't want it to do the same thing day after day | 05:35 |
| Agent_bob | or week after week | 05:36 |
| ^CatMan^ | with cron i can use it to do it a couple times a week tho, right? | 05:36 |
| dthacker | ^CatMan^: type "at XXXX" where x is the time you want to play the tunes and hit enter | 05:36 |
| Agent_bob | yes | 05:36 |
| dthacker | you should get an at> probmpt | 05:36 |
| dthacker | prompt even | 05:37 |
| Agent_bob | pro bitmap t :))) | 05:37 |
| dthacker | ;P | 05:37 |
| dthacker | :P | 05:37 |
| ^CatMan^ | dthacker: ok, got that at> prompt and typed in kaffeine --play myplaylist.m3u | 05:38 |
| dthacker | ^CatMan^: now hit control-D to save. it will say job x at ..... | 05:39 |
| ^CatMan^ | yeah, it did that, but the time i typed in was 2 minz ago :/ | 05:40 |
| dthacker | hmm, can you tell it to play Jethro Tull's living in the past? | 05:40 |
| dthacker | :) | 05:40 |
| dthacker | try again and give it some lead time. | 05:40 |
| Agent_bob | or the theme to back to the feuture | 05:41 |
| alanna | can someone please help- what does this mean checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables | 05:41 |
| Agent_bob | means install "build-essential" | 05:41 |
| ^CatMan^ | dthacker: no laughing at me cuz i can't type very fast :P | 05:42 |
| alanna | Agent_bob: thanks, how can I download build-essential with apt-get? | 05:42 |
| ^CatMan^ | i left it 2 minutes lead time now :) | 05:42 |
| Agent_bob | i can't type fase either. but i can typo 100 mistakes a minute | 05:42 |
| dthacker | ^CatMan^: ok, I'll hum the jepoardy theme..... | 05:43 |
| ^CatMan^ | lol | 05:43 |
| * dthacker considers typing are we there yet 10 times, but would probably get banned.... | 05:43 | |
| Agent_bob | for only two minutes ? shouldn't that be 30 times ? | 05:44 |
| alanna | how do I get build-essential? | 05:44 |
| Agent_bob | sudo apt-get install build-essential | 05:44 |
| Agent_bob | or any other dpkg FE | 05:45 |
| ^CatMan^ | ok, it's been past that 2 minz, and when i typed in atq, it doesn't show anything that is scheduled | 05:45 |
| ^CatMan^ | and it didn't start kaffiene either | 05:45 |
| Agent_bob | ^CatMan^ probably because you didn't set the 'display' | 05:46 |
| dthacker | look for an error in root's mail, you may have to use a full path to kaffiene | 05:46 |
| Agent_bob | can't start gui apps from outside the gui without setting the display varable | 05:46 |
| dthacker | yup, that too | 05:46 |
| Agent_bob | and setting the gui to accept rogue apps too | 05:47 |
| Agent_bob | path shouldn't be the problem. iirc at uses root's path varable | 05:47 |
| Agent_bob | which only excludes games by default | 05:48 |
| * dthacker has found cron to not always have much of a path on different *xes | 05:48 | |
| ^CatMan^ | no mail for root | 05:48 |
| dthacker | mail for ^CatMan^? | 05:48 |
| Agent_bob | dthacker yeah it is defined by the distro | 05:49 |
| Stoffer | so I formatted my external usb hard drive with mkntfs, but then windows claimed it was unformatted... any idea why? | 05:49 |
| ^CatMan^ | no mail for my username either | 05:49 |
| ^CatMan^ | ok, how do i go about setting this up thru the graphical display? | 05:50 |
| Agent_bob | i don't know, i don't have one. | 05:50 |
| * dthacker hates to not fix things and run, but my pager is going off. | 05:50 | |
| dthacker | argh....later all | 05:52 |
| Agent_bob | ^CatMan^ i think at will work if you'll use > DISPLAY=':0' kaffeine --play /full/path/to/myplaylist.m3u | 05:52 |
| Agent_bob | cause it's not going to know where myplaylist.m3u is. | 05:52 |
| alanna | what's the default root password for kubuntu | 05:54 |
| Agent_bob | !none | 05:54 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about none - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:54 |
| Agent_bob | there isn't one | 05:54 |
| alanna | hmm | 05:54 |
| alanna | this is weird, my password isn't working for the root account | 05:55 |
| alanna | can I reset the root password? | 05:55 |
| Agent_bob | would you like to read about it ? | 05:55 |
| alanna | yes please | 05:55 |
| Agent_bob | !sudo | alanna | 05:55 |
| ubotu | alanna: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 05:55 |
| Agent_bob | page ^ | 05:55 |
| alanna | thanks :D | 05:56 |
| alanna | sudo make install was what I was looking for | 05:56 |
| Agent_bob | and the short answer to your question is yes. | 05:56 |
| Agent_bob | but you should probably still read about it | 05:56 |
| alanna | well for some reason su won't log in to root | 05:56 |
| Agent_bob | it will if root calls it :) | 05:57 |
| Agent_bob | (this is not the ubuntu way, but) example; sudo su - | 05:57 |
| Agent_bob | same thing is achieved via sudo -i | 05:57 |

| sleepwalk | Thanks Agent_bob!!! Sorry for the delayed thank you. | 06:32 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | alanna: good work. | 06:32 |

| sladigar | at least you can find your hdd | 06:33 |
| sladigar | lol | 06:33 |
| sladigar | i'm missing 2 | 06:33 |
| Agent_bob | really? sudo fdisk -l | 06:34 |
| sub[t]rnl | speaking of missing.. I lost a pc | 06:34 |
| sub[t]rnl | ...i mean.. i can ping it.. i'm just not sure where it is | 06:34 |
| sladigar | did that, it sees them, but i can't access them | 06:34 |

| unagi | sub you know how to get my function keys working? | 06:35 |
| unagi | namely lock and brightness? | 06:35 |
| Agent_bob | !ntfs | sladigar maybe you need this page? | 06:35 |

| sladigar | kk, i'll try that | 06:36 |
| Agent_bob | sub[t]rnl yeah you could just ssh root@ip until false ;do echo -e "\a" ;done and go listening.... | 06:37 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar you don't access the device node you mount the file system on the device and then access the mountpoint | 06:37 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar the page will help ^ > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions | 06:38 |

| Agent_bob | dselect yup | 06:40 |
| Agent_bob | sleepwalk oh by the path. you do know about bash history, don't you ? | 06:41 |
| Agent_bob | sleepwalk you can use the up arrow key to scroll through the commands you have typed, that way if you forget a command you can go back and look for it in your own bash history. | 06:43 |
| Agent_bob | so i typed that for myself i guess. | 06:43 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | you can also type history for the listing | 06:43 |
| alanna | Agent_bob: I am trying to install libxalan110 but it needs libxerces27 which needs libxalan110 | 06:43 |

| sladigar | Agent_bob, you rock | 06:44 |
| Agent_bob | !find libxerces27 | 06:44 |

| sladigar | any idea on how to rename the newly fount hdd? | 06:45 |
| sladigar | permission denied in properties | 06:45 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar the name of the mountpoint ? | 06:45 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar mount points are simply directories that the file system is attached to | 06:46 |
| sladigar | what used to be known as /media/MyBook is now known as sda1 | 06:46 |
| sladigar | */media/sda1 | 06:47 |
| Agent_bob | i.e. dismount it change the name of the directory and the mount point option in the /etc/fstab file and remount it. | 06:47 |
| sladigar | erm, i dunno how | 06:48 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | man fstab | 06:48 |
| sladigar | in terminal | 06:48 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar in the konsole terminal emulator type this# sudo umount /media/sda1 ;sudo mkdir -p /media/MyBook ;sudo nano /etc/fstab #nano is a text editor it will be displaying the content of the file system table "fstab" you look at the line with /media/sda1 and change it to /media/MyBook then save and exit. | 06:51 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar when you get that done call me. | 06:51 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | man, thinking about the old days of linux... how can I survive w/o amarok? | 06:53 |
| sub[t]rnl | mpg123 ftw! | 06:53 |
| * sub[t]rnl hums | 06:53 | |
| sladigar | how do you save in nano? | 06:55 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | sladigar: you can also look on the web for rute.pdf, it has a good example and explanation of the fstab file. It's a little outdated but, explains things very well. | 06:55 |
| unagi | i cant figure out how to get the k menu to open with the windows key | 06:56 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar ^X the rafter ^ is shorthand for the ctrl key | 06:56 |
| sladigar | gotcha | 06:56 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar sudo mount -a | 06:56 |
| sladigar | ok, got that far | 06:56 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | unagi, did you follow the multimedia keys howto? | 06:56 |
| unagi | yes but the k menu isnt in the list of shortcuts | 06:57 |
| Agent_bob | you should now access your /media/MyBook with konqueror or your file manager | 06:57 |
| sladigar | sweet | 06:57 |
| sladigar | do i need to unmount all the partitions in order to rename them, or can i just edit the fstab file? | 06:58 |
| Agent_bob | you can just edit the fstab but for it to take affect you have to umount/mount them | 06:58 |
| sladigar | so there were 4 commands you gave me | 06:59 |
| sladigar | unmount | 06:59 |
| sladigar | create directory | 06:59 |
| sladigar | edit hdd name | 06:59 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | pop up launch menu | 06:59 |
| sladigar | and then mount | 06:59 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | unagi ^ | 06:59 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar yup | 06:59 |
| sladigar | what was the last command though, just mount all unmounted hdd? | 07:00 |
| Agent_bob | mount -a will mount anything that is not mounted that would be mounted automaticly at boot time. | 07:00 |
| sladigar | ahhh | 07:00 |
| sladigar | awesome | 07:00 |
| sladigar | is the mkdir needed? | 07:00 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | unagi: did you get my last message? | 07:00 |
| Agent_bob | the -p switch on the mkdir command will either make a dir or a dir and it's parent if they don't exist, or if an inode of the given name does exist it will silently exit without doing anything | 07:01 |
| livenicely | hello | 07:01 |
| livenicely | i want some help plz? | 07:01 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | livenicely: just ask away. | 07:02 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar and yes the dir must exist or mount can't mount anything there. | 07:02 |
| sladigar | Agnet_bob, thank you very much, you were awesome, gundam, ty for you help as well | 07:02 |
| sladigar | ok | 07:02 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | yw | 07:02 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar some scripts that control /media/* via hald run mkdir -p each time... | 07:03 |
| livenicely | wot is mean by depmod in linux | 07:03 |

| Agent_bob | in which cases the script will remake the mountpoint for you. but normal mount -a will not | 07:03 |
| sladigar | ahh | 07:04 |
| Agent_bob | sladigar and you're welcome. | 07:04 |
| sladigar | so, when you create the dir, and then rename the hdd, the mount -a command puts them together | 07:04 |
| Agent_bob | yep | 07:04 |

| eatThisAndDie | guys, anyone with any knowledge on xoops? | 07:06 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | there we go again... oops. | 07:06 |
| sub[t]rnl | everybody oops | 07:06 |
| eatThisAndDie | ........... | 07:07 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | long story | 07:07 |
| === bAgent_bo is now known as intelikey | ||
| gundam_rx78nt1 | what is xoops? | 07:07 |
| eatThisAndDie | a CMS | 07:08 |
| eatThisAndDie | do NOT ask me what's a cms.. | 07:08 |
| Stoffer | can someone help me find my external hard drive? I deleted the partition table on it and now it disappeared on me | 07:08 |
| Stoffer | it used to be /dev/sda1 | 07:08 |
| abortd | cms is a counter measure system | 07:09 |
| intelikey | sladigar not that it's something that would be useful to you but just to peek your interest. i have hdd with linux installed dirrectly to the disk, no partitions at all. encripted file system and encripted boot loader can also improve security. try that with windows.... :) | 07:09 |
| eatThisAndDie | Stoffer: uh... try /dev/sdb1 | 07:10 |
| intelikey | !virus | and a really good read on this page. | 07:10 |
| ubotu | and a really good read on this page.: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 07:10 |
| abortd | the day i have a webserver i will worry about that much security | 07:10 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | eat: what is the problem that you are having with it? | 07:10 |
| eatThisAndDie | not a problem, not even ubuntu related, i jsut wanna know how to use it. | 07:10 |
| eatThisAndDie | to add modules, etc | 07:10 |
| Stoffer | eatThisAndDie, no, doesn't exist, just like sda1 | 07:10 |
| intelikey | abortd heh. i run a cherokee server but it's local access only atm. | 07:11 |
| eatThisAndDie | do u have /dev/sd<anything> ? | 07:11 |
| Stoffer | basically how does one mount or edit a drive that isn't partitioned? | 07:11 |
| intelikey | Stoffer you don't mount partitions. you mount file systems. | 07:12 |
| eatThisAndDie | Stof: plug it out, plug it back in. it doesn;'t need to be partitioned to be mounted AFAIK | 07:12 |
| sub[t]rnl | Stoffer➜ fdisk can list and partition whatcha need | 07:12 |
| intelikey | the cdrom the floppy disk and the file.iso image are some examples | 07:12 |
| sub[t]rnl | sudo fdisk -l | 07:12 |
| Stoffer | sub[t]rnl, fdisk doesn't list it | 07:13 |
| eatThisAndDie | I'm gonna ask something really stupid....... are you sure it's turned on? | 07:14 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | eatThisAndDie: did you take a look at the xoop wiki page and documentation? I use dragonfly and like how it works. | 07:14 |
| intelikey | i'm going to ask something equally stupid...... is it plugged into the box ? | 07:14 |
| sub[t]rnl | ok, i'll bite...... do you really have an external harddrive? | 07:15 |
| intelikey | lol | 07:15 |
| intelikey | ^5 | 07:15 |
| sub[t]rnl | ^5 | 07:15 |
| eatThisAndDie | gundam_rx78nt1: DragonFLY huh? I'll lookitup. | 07:16 |
| nicolas | algun colombiano | 07:16 |
| eatThisAndDie | stoffer: also try eda, edb , xta, xtb | 07:17 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | nicolas: no, boricua | 07:17 |
| nicolas | q tal? | 07:17 |
| nicolas | mucho trasnochar...!!! | 07:17 |
| intelikey | sub[t]rnl i did try for over two hours to help one guy get an external drive to work..... wasn't plugged into the back of the box. the usb cable had been pulled out of the computer and he didn't know.... | 07:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | ouch, yeah. | 07:18 |
| intelikey | that will almost make a fellow loose his religion | 07:18 |
| sub[t]rnl | honestly though, you asked the right question | 07:18 |
| eatThisAndDie | Step 1 in My-Computer-Doesn't-Work diagnosis: is it turned on | 07:19 |
| sub[t]rnl | kiss system | 07:19 |
| eatThisAndDie | Step 2: is it plugged in | 07:19 |
| Stoffer | ok, first of all ... it's plugged in | 07:19 |
| Stoffer | second of all | 07:19 |
| Stoffer | it used to be /dev/sda1 | 07:19 |
| Stoffer | why would it change? | 07:19 |
| intelikey | Stoffer cause you unpluged it and repluged it. and usb is wierd that way | 07:19 |
| eatThisAndDie | Stoffer: Had that problem before, but mine just moves to sdb | 07:19 |
| sub[t]rnl | *cough* uuid's *cough* | 07:20 |
| eatThisAndDie | is sda or sdb available anyway? forget the numbers, just the dev | 07:20 |
| dystopianray | is flash supposed to be working in konqueror now? | 07:20 |
| intelikey | eatThisAndDie right and if you unplug and replug it may move to sdc or back to sda | 07:20 |
| eatThisAndDie | yups | 07:20 |
| Stoffer | isn't there something that'll tell me what device is instead of me going through every four-character combination? | 07:20 |
| eatThisAndDie | Stoffer: yeah, "ls" | 07:20 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | ls -l | 07:21 |
| intelikey | Stoffer cat /proc/partitions dmesg | tail | 07:21 |
| intelikey | either might show you | 07:21 |
| nicolas | thks gundam | 07:21 |
| eatThisAndDie | Stoffer: GUI: kmenu>system settings>advanced >Disk and File Systems | 07:21 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | ooh, intelikey, good one | 07:22 |
| dystopianray | flash only works about 10% of the time for me and often causes long pauses and crashes in konqueror | 07:22 |
| dystopianray | it works perfectly in firefox | 07:22 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | no problemas nicolas | 07:22 |
| Stoffer | eatThisAndDie, well, at least the GUI way isn't reading it | 07:22 |
| Stoffer | eatThisAndDie, it's just not there | 07:22 |
| intelikey | Stoffer unplug the usb cable from it and replug then dmesg | tail | 07:23 |
| dystopianray | does anyone else have working flash in konqueror? | 07:23 |
| intelikey | Stoffer if it doesn't show up there then you have a major mality | 07:23 |
| eatThisAndDie | cat /proc/diskstats | 07:24 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | Stoffer, did you do a lsusb to see if it is detected? | 07:24 |
| Stoffer | intelikey, something shows up in dmesg related to sda | 07:24 |
| intelikey | dystopianray short answer not i, long answer i don't have konqueror. | 07:24 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | if it is a usb. | 07:24 |
| Stoffer | Bus 004 Device 061: ID 0d49:7350 Maxtor | 07:24 |
| intelikey | Stoffer ok sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt ;ls /mnt | 07:24 |
| intelikey | if that gives errors pastebin them | 07:25 |
| Stoffer | mount: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist | 07:25 |
| intelikey | ok ls /dev/sda1 | 07:25 |
| intelikey | does it show a yellow device node ? | 07:25 |
| eatThisAndDie | i think it should be ls /dev/sd* | 07:26 |
| Stoffer | all I have is /dev/sda | 07:26 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | erm... | 07:26 |
| === s90653 is now known as marcus_aurelius | ||
| intelikey | Stoffer oh you did mention no partition... sudo mount /dev/sda | 07:26 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | has it been formatted yet or is it straight out of the box? | 07:26 |
| intelikey | /mnt | 07:26 |
| eatThisAndDie | its not FORMATED isn;t it | 07:27 |
| Stoffer | it was formatted | 07:27 |
| intelikey | stupid enter key.... | 07:27 |
| Stoffer | until I screwed it up | 07:27 |
| twosouls82 | :) | 07:27 |
| eatThisAndDie | so it's a WAS? | 07:27 |
| intelikey | Stoffer oh you did mention no partition... sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt | 07:27 |
| Stoffer | it asks for a filesystem | 07:27 |
| Stoffer | fs type that is | 07:27 |
| intelikey | Stoffer ok. this is what that means. there is a disk at that address but there is nothing mountable there. i.e. no fs | 07:28 |
| Stoffer | correct | 07:28 |
| intelikey | Stoffer so what do you want now ? | 07:28 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | so, stoffer: what you want to do is recover the partition table? | 07:28 |
| Stoffer | format it | 07:29 |
| intelikey | what fs ? | 07:29 |
| Stoffer | well that's the compicated part | 07:29 |
| Stoffer | ntfs ideally | 07:29 |
| Stoffer | but that's a whole other story | 07:29 |
| Stoffer | I'll settle for fat32 | 07:29 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | oops again. | 07:29 |
| Stoffer | and convert to ntfs later | 07:29 |
| intelikey | sudo mkntfs /dev/sda | 07:29 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | ntfs... | 07:29 |
| intelikey | sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda | 07:29 |
| Stoffer | yeah, see, when it was working before, I tried mkntfs | 07:29 |
| Stoffer | but windows would tell me it wasnt' formatted | 07:30 |
| Stoffer | after mknfts would say it's done | 07:30 |
| Stoffer | I need the thing to read in windows | 07:30 |
| intelikey | windows can access ext2 also | 07:30 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | did you try to create a partition on it? | 07:30 |
| Stoffer | can it? | 07:30 |
| intelikey | gundam_rx78nt1 why ? | 07:30 |
| Stoffer | what's the max file size in ext2? | 07:30 |
| intelikey | Stoffer yes. | 07:30 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | w/o a partition table, windows will detect it as a new drive. | 07:31 |
| intelikey | idk. .... i have never thought about that... 4t or something ? | 07:31 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | and ask to format it. | 07:31 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | I was just wondering.... | 07:31 |
| Stoffer | gundam_rx78nt1, it won't for an external usb drive | 07:31 |
| Stoffer | gundam_rx78nt1, windows doensn't see it at all | 07:32 |
| * Stoffer dual boots, btw | 07:32 | |
| Stoffer | is mkntfs the same program as mkfs.ntfs? | 07:32 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | well, I had to create a partition table on mine once I wiped it clean (zeroed the drive). | 07:33 |
| Stoffer | m | 07:33 |
| Stoffer | nm* | 07:33 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | in order for a drive to be formated (high level format), it needs a partition table. No matter the drive. | 07:34 |
| nicolas | no have sound gundam | 07:34 |
| Stoffer | intelikey, the reason I asked about the max file size is because I'll be using this hdd to transfer large files, which is why I wanted to get away from fat32 | 07:34 |
| Agent_bob | ok i'll have to accept that, gundam_rx78nt1 cause i don't do windows, can't prove it by me. | 07:34 |
| Stoffer | intelikey, which I heard had a max of 2 or 4 GB | 07:34 |
| Agent_bob | Stoffer 2g max on vfat | 07:35 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | you have an enclosure with a hd that is either sata or eide with an usb interface. So partition the thing and then format it. | 07:35 |
| * Agent_bob doesn't use partitions. but he's wierd anyway | 07:36 | |
| nicolas | si | 07:36 |
| Agent_bob | !sound | nicolas does the troubleshooting page here not help ? | 07:37 |
| ubotu | nicolas does the troubleshooting page here not help ?: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 07:37 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | that is why when a usb drive is "automounted" it has a partition on it already, hence forth: sda1, partition 1 of the sda drive | 07:38 |
| Agent_bob | gundam_rx78nt1 usb dirve ? do thumb drives not qualify ? | 07:38 |
| Stoffer | ok, well, mk.ext2 didn't seem to accomplish anything, but at least now gparted recognized /dev/sda and is creating an ext2 parition on it | 07:39 |
| Agent_bob | which often don't have partitions. | 07:39 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | flash memory works a little differently. | 07:39 |
| Agent_bob | Stoffer it's not mk.ext2 mke2fs /dev/sda# | 07:39 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | that porition of drives I haven't explored yet because it always works for me. | 07:39 |
| Agent_bob | not flash memory the little dirves. | 07:40 |
| Stoffer | Agent_bob, oh...well gparted seems to be working now | 07:40 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | What is a thumb drive? Isn't it chips that acts as non-volatile memory drives? | 07:41 |
| Agent_bob | the ones with a disk about as big as a dime ? or the ones with the ram chips ? | 07:41 |
| Agent_bob | oh! never mind. | 07:42 |
| Stoffer | ok, I have an option now. Gparted will let me format it as ext2 or NTFS. I'm sure ntfs will work fine with windows, which I need, but ubuntu has issues mounting ntfs external drives. Should I just do ext2? No drawbacks right? | 07:42 |
| Stoffer | ok, i'm just gonna format it ext2 and deal with it in the morning | 07:44 |
| Stoffer | thanks for all your help | 07:44 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | now, I have a question? since when does windows recognize ext2 fs? | 07:45 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | I can't see my drives on my dual boot pc. Only saying unknown healthy. | 07:46 |
| jussi01 | gundam_rx78nt1: since you loaded the ext2 driver | 07:50 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | there is a ext2 driver for linux? | 07:51 |
| ere4si | gundam_rx78nt1, windows doesn't recognise linux - but sees that there is a partition | 07:51 |
| jussi01 | !ext3 | gundam_rx78nt1 | 07:51 |
| ubotu | gundam_rx78nt1: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 07:51 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | sorry, windows. | 07:51 |
| jussi01 | gundam_rx78nt1: there it is | 07:51 |

| Agent_bob | twosouls82 add them to the adm group | 10:48 |

| ActionParsnip | twosouls82, or kdesu <gui app> | 10:49 |
| twosouls82 | ActionParsnip: for that I need Agent_bob's answer | 10:49 |
| twosouls82 | Agent_bob: thanks, that's what I was looking for | 10:49 |
| twosouls82 | :) | 10:49 |
| Agent_bob | twosouls82 adm or admin which ever it is.. cat /etc/sudoers will tell you | 10:49 |
| twosouls82 | Agent_bob: "Members of the admin group may gain root privileges" so "admin" it is | 10:50 |
| twosouls82 | Agent_bob: merci | 10:50 |
| peto_ | i cant find it | 10:50 |
| Agent_bob | d'nada | 10:50 |
| peto_ | i just found compizConfig settings manager | 10:51 |
| Agent_bob | twosouls82 but the %adm* is what counts not the comment above it just so you know. | 10:52 |
| peto_ | so what do you think? | 10:52 |
| drayen | morning all | 10:52 |
| Sbucatone | peto_: mm i have no idea.... i am sorry but i can't help you you must wait someone more expert than me ... i am sorry i have a shit intel and it works automatically | 10:52 |
| Agent_bob | peto_ don't know who is/was helping you. but i'm the cli guy not the gui guy | 10:52 |

| Agent_bob | sorry spoke to soon. | 10:53 |
| blekos | hi, i've installed kubuntu with vmawre on my xp laptop. Is there a way to see from within kubuntu the ntfs partions? | 10:53 |
| peto_ | thats ok, you helped me already thx a lot | 10:54 |
| drayen | i'm about to buy a laptop with 2x160gb disks, which is a bit much - i was thinking of having a play with software raid to setup raid0 on say 60gb of each disk then raid1 on the last 100gb - what do people thing - crazy or brilliant + any good tutorials / links for this kind of madness : | 10:54 |
| Sbucatone | Agent_bob: if you have nvidia try to help that guy | 10:54 |
| Agent_bob | blekos there should be. but i don't know what you might have to switch on in vmware | 10:54 |
| Agent_bob | Sbucatone i have an nvidia card but it's not supported, and i don't have x installed, so i'm useless there. | 10:55 |
| Sbucatone | Agent_bob: :) | 10:56 |
| twosouls82 | Agent_bob: hehehe.. I quoted the comment, but it doesn't lie about the configuation option in this case: "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL" ;) | 10:57 |
| blekos | if a vm is treates as another pc then I might have to do smg with sambaa | 10:57 |
| Agent_bob | right. just wanted you to be aware of that. | 10:58 |
| Agent_bob | blekos you can use ssh or ftp or samba lots of ways to get there. | 10:58 |
| Agent_bob | sshfs is margenally slower but seems stable enough to call safe (sort of) | 10:59 |
| Agent_bob | ftp is either anon. or permisc. | 11:00 |
| Agent_bob | samba i don't know cause i don't do windows | 11:00 |
| Agent_bob | but i still think that vmware can allow linux to access dirrectly via the device nodes. | 11:01 |
| Agent_bob | i said i think. | 11:01 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | drayen: you will have a raid 0 drive with 120G and a mirrored raid 1 drive but you wouldn't have an increase in performance if that is what you are looking for. | 11:03 |

| drayen | performance even | 11:05 |

| twosouls82 | I thought "sudo usermod -g employees <username>" would make "employees" the primary group of the user with username <username>.. it does not seem to work | 11:26 |
| twosouls82 | or do I need to logout and in for it to be visible to me? | 11:27 |
| Lynoure | twosouls82: check what your /etc/passwd says on that... | 11:28 |
| Lynoure | twosouls82: if it is right there, then yes, it will take effect when the user in question logs in | 11:29 |
| Agent_bob | logout/in is required or some command that escapes me atm. | 11:29 |
| Agent_bob | env or something. | 11:30 |
| Lynoure | newgrp | 11:30 |
| Agent_bob | Lynoure that wont affect the primary group tho will it ? | 11:31 |
| twosouls82 | Lynoure: thanks, it confirms that I need to relogin or.... etc etc.. "newgrp is used to change the current group ID during a login session." :) handy | 11:31 |
| twosouls82 | Agent_bob: I will tell you in a sec | 11:31 |
| Lynoure | Agent_bob: not sure, actually... too lazy to check :) | 11:32 |
| twosouls82 | Lynoure: Agent_bob: thanks, it indeed works for primary groups too | 11:32 |
| hardik | Hello , I m new to kubuntu (y'day installed version 7.10), with help to search engine I able to install scim, and I m able to switch lang in kopete, but not in another applications like kate | 11:32 |
| twosouls82 | hardik: use "kcmshell language" in a terminal client to configure those settings desktop wide | 11:33 |
| hardik | thanks twosouls82, what I want is to able to keep default english as it is but can use native lang in various application | 11:35 |
| hardik | when I writing msg to kopete, there is in mouse right-click menu select input lang, so I can chat with others in native lang through kopete, but same is not happening in other sw like kate | 11:36 |
| hardik | i.e. if I want to make docs in native lang then what to do? | 11:36 |
| twosouls82 | hardik: depends on the application, for kate; use the "Tools" menu, followed by "Settings...", in the new dialog you can set the language for the document using the "Language" listbox | 11:39 |
| Enissay | how to execute *.run package? | 11:57 |
| SlimeyPete | sh blah.run | 11:58 |
| SlimeyPete | you may have to do "chmod +x blah.run" first | 11:59 |
| Enissay | SlimeyPete: and then..? | 12:01 |
| hardik | twosouls82 , I look at kate, kwrite & quanta but I m not able to find native lang selection (ofcourse there is highlighter for computer lang selection) | 12:02 |
| twosouls82 | hardik: I meant: Tools -> Spelling... | 12:03 |
| SlimeyPete | Enissay: after you've done "chmod +x blah.run" then "sh blah.run" it should run. | 12:03 |
| hardik | twosouls82 thanks, I m able to find it, and select it but then my kate crash and when I restart that program no popup :(, I m rebooting my system as looks like I did some mistake in installing scim | 12:08 |
| hardik | thanks for your time, I will come back here to give u feedback | 12:08 |
| twosouls82 | hardik: that sounds nasty | 12:09 |
| twosouls82 | good luck | 12:09 |
| hardik | thank you , avajo | 12:09 |
| Liono | can any one help me how to enable direct hardware acceleration for good graphics. direct rendering managmnet is disabled in m case. how to enable it? i have intel p4 builtin vga? | 12:20 |
| SlimeyPete | you need to find out what VGA chipset you have. There might be a better driver available. | 12:20 |
| SlimeyPete | you can run "lspci" in a terminal to list such things. | 12:21 |
| Liono | can any one help me how to enable direct hardware acceleration for good graphics. direct rendering managmnet is disabled in m case. how to enable it? i have intel p4 builtin vga? | 12:30 |

| TrapperDave | Hello, just wondering if anyone can help me with Amarok. I was told I'd be best off trying in here. | 12:55 |
| TrapperDave | It freezes on the splash screen. | 12:55 |
| Enissay | i've just installed my card driver and compiz.... how can i activate desktop effects? | 12:56 |
| andy_ | !ntfs | 12:59 |
| 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 | 12:59 |
| tekteen | Enissay: open a konsole and type "sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager" then press enter | 12:59 |
| Enissay | tekteen: already done... what's next? | 13:00 |
| tekteen | ok | 13:00 |
| andy_ | is there any way of getting kubuntu to automatically mount my ntfs external hard disk? | 13:00 |
| tekteen | go to the kmenu >> settings | 13:01 |
| tekteen | then there should be Advanced Desktop Effects | 13:01 |
| tekteen | that is how you configure it | 13:01 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | andy, add it to your fstab file. | 13:02 |
| Enissay | and when i check an effects it should wroks... that's it? | 13:02 |
| tekteen | to start it type alt+f2. and then the run box will appear. in that box type compiz --replace | 13:02 |
| tekteen | that is how to TRY compiz | 13:03 |
| andy_ | gundam_rx78nt1: ok but what do i need to add i.e command? | 13:03 |
| tekteen | you do not want it to start automatically until you have tried it | 13:04 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | !fstab | 13:05 |
| ubotu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 13:05 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | also you can read the fstab man page. | 13:05 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | usually it would be <device> <mount point> <fs type> <options> | 13:06 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | I am sorry if I am not clear... I have been working all night long... | 13:07 |
| Enissay | tekteen: i got nothing.... :'( | 13:08 |
| tekteen | ok | 13:08 |
| tekteen | you typed compiz --replace? | 13:09 |
| Enissay | yes | 13:09 |
| tekteen | did all of the window bars disappear? | 13:09 |
| tekteen | then reappear? | 13:10 |
| charlerlin | salut | 13:10 |
| Enissay | tekteen: no, nothing happens | 13:10 |
| tekteen | Enissay: if anything I say stops kubuntu from working... use crtl+alt+backspace to reset x (it will log you out but not restart) | 13:11 |
| tekteen | open a konsole | 13:11 |
| tekteen | and try to run compiz --replace | 13:11 |
| tekteen | what is the error | 13:12 |
| tekteen | ? | 13:12 |
| Enissay | tekteen: .: 3: Can't open /etc/xdg/compiz/compiz-manager.ubuntu | 13:12 |
| tekteen | did you install compiz or compiz-kde? | 13:13 |
| tekteen | also just to check. gutsy? | 13:13 |
| Enissay | tekteen: i've installed : compizconfig-settings-manager compiz compiz-core compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-gnome compiz-plugins libcompizconfig-backend-gconf libcompizconfig0 | 13:14 |
| tekteen | ok | 13:14 |
| tekteen | remove compiz and install compiz-kde | 13:14 |
| tekteen | I assume you use kde :-) | 13:15 |
| Enissay | :-) | 13:15 |
| Enissay | tekteen: i've installed compiz-kde... but nothing change.... do i have to reboot? | 13:17 |
| tekteen | no | 13:18 |
| tekteen | you tried compiz --replace in the konsole? | 13:18 |
| tekteen | what was the error again? | 13:18 |
| Enissay | tekteen: yes, the same | 13:19 |
| tekteen | also did you reinstall the plug-ins? | 13:19 |
| Enissay | no | 13:20 |
| Enissay | wich mones? | 13:20 |
| Enissay | wich ones? | 13:20 |
| tekteen | kubuntu prob uninstalled them | 13:20 |
| Enissay | tekteen: adept says that they still installed | 13:22 |
| tekteen | ok | 13:22 |

| MsK` | sorry | 13:48 |
| twosouls82 | can I safely change "/etc/default/useradd" so that "SKEL" contains our foundation's skeleton without messing things up (other scripts, postinst, postrm etc.)? | 13:48 |

| theTheme | Hey everyone, I'm having an upgrade problem. I installed from the repository and now I am trying to upgrade to 1.05 with svn. when I type in ./autogen.sh it returns ./autogen.sh: 22: autoreconf: not found | 13:52 |
| theTheme | Can anyone help me? | 13:53 |
| theTheme | Sorry...I am trying to upgrade Transmission...forgot that part :) | 13:53 |
| ActionParsnip | theTheme, do you have autoreconf installed? | 13:55 |
| theTheme | ActionParsnip: I am not sure, whenever i try to apt-get install it, it says Couldn't find package | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | theTheme, sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 13:57 |
| theTheme | ActionParsnip: ok, did both of those and tried autoreconf again, but still returns not found | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | theTheme, do you need updates? | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | so you are updating Transmission? | 13:58 |

| theTheme | ActionParsnip: If you know how to fix that, that'd be just as good :) | 14:01 |
| === delian is now known as guitarking | ||
| ActionParsnip | bitlord wil never forward ports | 14:02 |
| ActionParsnip | port forwarding is done on the router | 14:02 |
| ActionParsnip | how do you mean by "forward ports" | 14:03 |
| theTheme | ActionParsnip: by using the UPnP widget in ktorrent | 14:03 |
| theTheme | plugin rather, not widget | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | theTheme, and without it your torrents dont work? | 14:06 |

| Amerio | I need help with Gparted | 14:26 |
| Amerio | is it possible to merge 2 unallocated paritions into 1 unallocated parition ? | 14:26 |
| Amerio | but both in different SDA's | 14:26 |
| genii | Amerio: If they are next to each other merging them is easy. If you have some partition between them it's more problemmatic | 14:28 |
| Amerio | genii they arent next to each other | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all :-) | 14:28 |
| Amerio | the 1st one under ext3 filesystem / SDA1 and the other under extended file system /SDA2 | 14:29 |
| * genii hands BluesKaj a coffee | 14:29 | |
| BluesKaj | thankyou genii :) | 14:29 |
| genii | BluesKaj: Anytime | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | finally some sun here | 14:30 |
| genii | Amerio: sda1 and sda2 should be next to each other | 14:30 |
| Amerio | yeah but inside sda2 there are ntfs paritions | 14:30 |
| genii | BluesKaj: Yeah here too :) | 14:30 |
| genii | Amerio: You said unallocated partitions. | 14:31 |
| Amerio | genii yeah there are ntfs paritions and unallocated parition too | 14:31 |
| dergringo | I'm looking for something like ChronoSync on KDE | 14:34 |
| luser | Good morning sunshine(s) | 14:34 |
| Amerio | SDA1 has 8 GB of unallocated space, SDA2 has 11 GB of unallocated space , I just wanna make a new parition with 19 GB , but it doesnt allow me to use more than 8 GB | 14:34 |
| genii | Amerio: if you have for instance sda1=ext3 sda2=ntfs sda3=unallocated sda4=unallocated you can merge sda3 and sda4 into 1 no issues. If you have something like sda1=ext3 sda2=ntfs sda3=unallocated sda4=ntfs sda5=unallocated and you want to merge sda3 and sda5 then it becomes tricky | 14:35 |
| Amerio | aah thats confusing | 14:36 |
| genii | Amerio: So your ext3 filesystem on sda1 has 8Gb free on it without data that you want to extract and then add to 11Gb of free space on the ntfs partition? | 14:37 |
| genii | partition <> filesystem free space | 14:37 |
| Amerio | i want to add the 11gb unallocated 1 to the 8 GB unallocated one to make a new partition under sda1 | 14:38 |
| Amerio | got it? | 14:38 |
| genii | Amerio: But you have filesystems on these so-called "unallocated" partitions? | 14:39 |
| Amerio | under SDA1 there is ext3 parition and unallocated place , under SDA2 there is 3 NTFS paritions and unallocated space | 14:40 |
| Amerio | SDA2 is extended and contains the other paritions under it | 14:42 |
| Amerio | and I cant take a screenshot to show u because im using the livecd | 14:42 |
| genii | Amerio: OK. After sda1 how big is the unallocated space. Is it as large as the ntfs part sda2? | 14:45 |
| Amerio | ok hold on please | 14:45 |
| BluesKaj | Amerio , genii , perhaps he should take the GParted Live CD approach to organizing and resizing the partitions. It's much easier and effective than the qtparted app on the kubuntu live cd. | 14:46 |
| Amerio | where can I upload a screenshot? | 14:47 |
| genii | Amerio: tinypic.com | 14:47 |
| genii | BluesKaj: I think the main problem is that he has dead space at end of sda1 which the ntfs partition needs to occupy to make the unallocated areas contiguous | 14:48 |
| ubuntu_ | Salut tout le monde | 14:48 |
| genii | Amerio: If the image is too large for tinypic.com try then imageshack.us | 14:51 |
| Amerio | its uploading not too much large but was trying to take a clear one by phone | 14:52 |
| Amerio | genii http://i25.tinypic.com/5dnntt.jpg | 14:52 |

| BluesKaj | genii, yeah agreed ,it's always best to have the ntfs on the sda1 from what I've learned so far. | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | theTheme, why not just install it with adept or apt ? | 14:55 |
| llutz | theTheme: install libx11-dev | 14:56 |

| * BluesKaj needs to read with more concentration :) | 14:57 | |
| * BluesKaj gulps coffee to get rolling | 14:57 | |
| Amerio | genii as shown in the image I just want the merge the unallocated space which the mouse is pointing on to the above one and make a new partition | 14:57 |
| theTheme | BluesKaj: the version in the repository is 2.2.1 | 14:58 |
| BluesKaj | theTheme, that's perfectly good version...it works well . | 14:58 |
| BluesKaj | newest isn't always best | 14:58 |
| theTheme | BluesKaj: yes, of course, just like to upgrade | 14:59 |
| theTheme | BluesKaj: I was hoping that the newest would help get the upnp plugin working for me again, it mysteriously stopped about a week ago | 14:59 |
| BluesKaj | theTheme, which kubuntu are you running ? | 15:00 |
| * llutz iterates "uPnP is evil" | 15:00 | |
| theTheme | llutz: ok, it returned a list of packages that have unmet dependecies, but someone of them I can't find | 15:00 |
| theTheme | BluesKaj: Hardy | 15:00 |
| BluesKaj | llutz, as is DHT | 15:00 |
| llutz | BluesKaj: what's DHT? | 15:00 |
| BluesKaj | Hardy should default to 2.2.5 | 15:01 |
| theTheme | it's the same one that came with when I did the fresh install. the about says it's 2.2.1 | 15:01 |
| theTheme | llutz: figured it out :) | 15:02 |
| llutz | theTheme: i did ;) | 15:02 |
| theTheme | Why do you guys not like upnp and dht? | 15:02 |
| genii | Amerio: Since the unallocated space the mouse is on there is within an extended partition you cannot merge it directly to some primary partition. If you shrink the sda2 by the 11Gb then it can be merged with the 7.84 below it. But to use the spae between sda1 and sda2 you would need to shift the sda2 up so the free space falls all together at the end. | 15:02 |
| llutz | uPnP is a security nightmare because you lose control about your security-settings | 15:03 |
| genii | Sorry for lag, work calling me back and forth a bit | 15:03 |
| BluesKaj | llutz, distributed hash table : a type of distributed system that provides hash table-like functionality.. wiki definition | 15:03 |
| theTheme | oh, didn't realize that, I'm rather new to linux and bittorrent | 15:03 |
| Amerio | hmmmm | 15:03 |
| llutz | BluesKaj: i found it at wikipedia, thanks ,) | 15:04 |
| Amerio | so I shift all and by default it should be 1 unallocated space right? | 15:04 |
| BluesKaj | llutz, as did I :) | 15:04 |
| llutz | theTheme: who/what prevents malware from using upnp-mechanisms to open your system to the internet? | 15:04 |
| theTheme | llutz: No idea | 15:05 |
| llutz | theTheme: what seems to be a nice feature of p2p-clients, media-clients etc. is evil, very evil for your security. | 15:05 |
| BluesKaj | llutz, i've been informed by some folks at thebo.bzx torent site that enabling DHT can muck up you DL speed and introduce unwanted sources | 15:05 |
| BluesKaj | err thbox.bz | 15:06 |
| theTheme | Isn't that a private site that doesn't allow dht? | 15:06 |
| llutz | BluesKaj: maybe, i'm not using p2p very often | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | theTheme, yes i believe so | 15:06 |
| genii | Amerio: If you have some other drive large enough to temporarily store sda2 then you can copy it to there with dd command, then free it up and create a new partion of same size directly underneath sda1 and then dd back the partition sda2 to that. Then you will have all the free space in one area at the end. | 15:06 |
| Amerio | genii yeah I thought of that too , I have an external HDD but u know it takes ages to move all the data lol | 15:07 |
| genii | Amerio: Without being able to put the sda2 contents somewhere though, best can do right now is shrink sda2 by the 11G of free space on it and then merge that with the 7.8Gb at end of drive | 15:07 |
| Amerio | genii anyway thanx for the help , I'll try shifting if it doesnt work , then I'll move the data to external hdd | 15:07 |
| theTheme | Ok, I got libx11-dev installed, but I am still getting the same error when I try ./configure for ktorrent | 15:08 |
| stdin | Thecks: you need xorg-dev, you probably want to so "sudo apt-get build-dep ktorrent" to get all of the packages you need | 15:09 |
| Amerio | genii shifting worked =) thanx alot mate | 15:09 |
| BluesKaj | theTheme,I have to ask the obvious. Have you updated your sources.list to hardy ? | 15:10 |
| theTheme | BluesKaj: I don't know how to do that, so...probably not | 15:10 |
| BluesKaj | I mean multivers univers etc | 15:10 |

| BluesKaj | theTheme, the best way without editing directly is : Open Adept Package Manager. On the menu of that screen, click on Adept -> Manage Repositories. Click the Kubuntu software tab, check all the boxes "X". The same goes for the third party software tab. Close, and then in the terminal: "sudo apt-get update" . | 15:12 |
| === alx_ is now known as alx1 | ||
| theTheme | woot! it worked, after it resolved the dependencies ./configure worked | 15:17 |
| BluesKaj | theTheme, yes , that's why using adept or apt is always safer. | 15:20 |

| BluesKaj | !wine | 15:27 |
| Ops | Hi | 15:27 |
| ubotu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 15:27 |
| stdin | Wine Is Not an Emulator ;) try vmware or VirtualBox for a full emulator | 15:27 |
| alexk_ | ok | 15:28 |
| alexk_ | because i like Voyage Century Online and cant play it on my new kubuntu install :) | 15:28 |
| alexk_ | but was so tired of windows | 15:28 |
| alexk_ | 1 month now with kubuntu and no problems but that one game :) | 15:28 |
| alexk_ | ok i have one other problem | 15:30 |
| alexk_ | i had ot put in my old NVIDIA card because my newer ATI Radeon 9550 wont work on Kubuntu | 15:30 |
| alexk_ | how to make Radeon 9550 work and obey me? :) | 15:30 |
| Kohlrabi | what do you mean with "won't work"? | 15:31 |
| alexk_ | it uses a default setting | 15:31 |
| alexk_ | "fglrx" or something | 15:31 |
| Ops | How i can delete kde3=? | 15:31 |
| alexk_ | and doesnt like 3d stuff | 15:31 |
| alexk_ | for example i tried that 3d desktop beryl | 15:31 |
| alexk_ | its a great card and worked fine under windows xp | 15:32 |
| alexk_ | there is no exact driver for radeon 9550 which works i did a search on it | 15:33 |
| alexk_ | many hours and it keeps changing desktop back to very low resolution every reboot | 15:33 |
| BluesKaj | alexk_, open system settings/advanced , check if the restricted driver is enabled. | 15:33 |
| alexk_ | i did that | 15:34 |
| alexk_ | i have to do that every reboot | 15:34 |
| alexk_ | so i stopped bothering and put in the nvidia card | 15:34 |
| alexk_ | one time setup and no problems but its old geforce 4 with 64mb eww | 15:35 |
| noaXess | has anybody seen this? http://files.wmx.ch/upload/jpg/70_gkrellShoot_08-02-19_160700.jpg | 15:36 |
| noaXess | i think its a memory dump before the machine crashes.. | 15:36 |
| alexk_ | it is | 15:36 |
| noaXess | where can i see the whole dump? | 15:36 |
| BluesKaj | alexk_, in oder to use the restricred default driver , you have to install the Radeon card of course , but I have a cheap X200G onboard and 3D and DRI work on mine using that driver. | 15:37 |
| alexk_ | thats the linux version of blue screen of death | 15:37 |
| noaXess | alexk_: ok.. and where to see the whole information? | 15:37 |
| alexk_ | blueskaj, I use restricted driver but it still says no 3d capability after restart | 15:37 |
| alexk_ | noaXess i do not know yet as im learning linux myself only 1 month on it | 15:37 |
| noaXess | alexk_: :) | 15:37 |
| alexk_ | but that is definitely a memory dump before a crash | 15:37 |
| alexk_ | what did you do to make it mad? :) | 15:38 |
| noaXess | alexk_: thats what i need to know.. and whant have mor information.. | 15:39 |
| alexk_ | okay | 15:39 |
| alexk_ | virtualbox i was just told abuot a minute ago | 15:40 |
| alexk_ | its supposed to be like WINE somewht right? | 15:40 |
| BluesKaj | alexk_, you have to edit your xorg.config file to get it to work. Perhaps if you posted you xorg file on pastebin i could suggest some changes. | 15:40 |
| Daisuke_Ido | not even close | 15:40 |
| alexk_ | daisuke | 15:40 |
| Daisuke_Ido | virtualbox is what it says it is | 15:40 |
| alexk_ | perhaps you can help my newfound friend noaXess then | 15:41 |
| alexk_ | http://files.wmx.ch/upload/jpg/70_gkrellShoot_08-02-19_160700.jpg | 15:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | a virtual machine. it's more like vmware or virtual pc than wine | 15:41 |
| alexk_ | he's got this memory dump problem before a crash | 15:41 |
| noaXess | Daisuke_Ido: jep.. but the error is in the machine.. | 15:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no idea -_- | 15:41 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that's way way beyond me | 15:41 |
| alexk_ | now ive used vmware | 15:41 |
| alexk_ | on windows | 15:41 |
| noaXess | my question is where to find the mem dump info's | 15:41 |
| alexk_ | perhaps you go to their website | 15:41 |
| alexk_ | this virtualbox place | 15:42 |
| alexk_ | and do a search of FAQ first | 15:42 |
| alexk_ | ? | 15:42 |
| alexk_ | blueskaj where do i find this xorg.config file? | 15:42 |
| hawkeye | jo+ | 15:43 |
| hawkeye | look at : /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:43 |
| alexk_ | under root? | 15:43 |
| hawkeye | if u wanna change sth yes | 15:44 |
| alexk_ | okay | 15:44 |
| hawkeye | user can see .conf-file but cant change anything i think | 15:44 |
| alexk_ | i have my xorg.conf file | 15:44 |
| hawkeye | ;-) | 15:44 |
| alexk_ | yes a guy said he can help make changes | 15:44 |
| alexk_ | very exciting :) | 15:44 |
| Saied | emilsedgh: where is that guy? banned | 15:44 |
| alexk_ | some changes to make such as make the Radeon 9550 work and maybe change this "plugnplay" to a proper monitor for my flatpanel LCD | 15:45 |

| norml_advocate | yes | 18:25 |
| norml_advocate | no | 18:25 |
| norml_advocate | i jsut switched back to gdm | 18:25 |
| trappist | norml_advocate: that's why you don't have the applet | 18:25 |
| norml_advocate | but I want it | 18:26 |
| norml_advocate | so how do i get my quick user switch applet back? | 18:26 |
| trappist | ... use kdm | 18:27 |
| unagi | rawr? | 18:27 |
| norml_advocate | but when I use kdm and type kcontrol i cannot use the administrator mode for some reason | 18:27 |
| norml_advocate | so i cannot edit the login window | 18:28 |
| trappist | well you won't get that applet without kdm, so my advice would be switch back, then troubleshoot that other problem | 18:28 |
| trappist | also, don't type kcontrol. iirc that's obolete. use systemsettings | 18:29 |
| trappist | or if you must, try kdesu kcontrol | 18:30 |

| bobby | ah yes, i was having problems with comboboxes flashing but found on aseigos blog that it was a problem with the polyester style so i changed that, but yes, very slow redraw, | 19:45 |
| bobby | when i stretch windows or move windows over others or when changing tabs, you can see the redraw happenning, while it's only a couple seconds and not minutes it's still very distracting. | 19:47 |
| nosrednaekim | bobby » hum, I hav heard complaints about that, but I never did see anyone fix it. you could of course switch to compiz as a window manager if you have the graphics power | 19:48 |
| nosrednaekim | bobby » it seems hardware specific | 19:48 |
| bobby | thats the thing, in gnome i have set up the restricted ati drivers and i have all eye candy on and it works great so it cant be a hardware issue, it has to be the way i have kubuntu set up. (i havent done anything to tweak it as this is my first experience with it) | 19:50 |

| nosrednaekim | davebv » some have.... I haven't personally | 20:15 |
| amerio | genii u there? | 20:15 |
| nosrednaekim | I don't use 3.5.x anymore :) | 20:16 |
| oloughlin75 | nosrednaekim: is a recompile of alsa needed for kde upgrades? | 20:16 |
| AndreSTC | whats kdewallet default password? | 20:16 |
| nosrednaekim | oloughlin75 » nope... on kernels | 20:16 |
| nosrednaekim | *only | 20:16 |
| oloughlin75 | good :) | 20:16 |
| nosrednaekim | AndreSTC » uhh there is none, it prompts you for one on its first run | 20:16 |
| ubuntu__ | another point is | 20:17 |
| davebv | I just did it (upgraded) and when I use amarok, it does not autodetect the ipod | 20:17 |
| davebv | or any other device | 20:17 |
| amerio | I just formatted a parition to ext3 but cannot seem to create folders inside it or copy files to it | 20:17 |
| amerio | any help? | 20:17 |
| davebv | it says something about dbus and hal | 20:17 |
| ubuntu__ | when I want my comp to boot from the external I have to set it in the bios right? | 20:17 |
| ForgeAus | wow #debian are snobs! | 20:17 |
| ForgeAus | they banned me for asking help to get dpkg working on interix and mentioning kubuntu | 20:18 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » or use the boot menu (usually f12 during the BIOS splash) | 20:18 |
| ubuntu__ | yeah I know how to get this menu up, but I cant select the booting device to usb/external | 20:18 |
| ubuntu__ | maybe I should upgrade my bios? | 20:19 |
| ubuntu__ | update | 20:19 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » how old is your computer? | 20:19 |
| ForgeAus | ubuntu carefully :) | 20:19 |
| ubuntu__ | sony vaio, about 3 years | 20:19 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » and the device has to be plugged in when you do f12 | 20:19 |
| AndreSTC | nosrednaekim is there a way to see the kdewallet password? | 20:19 |
| amerio | I just formatted a parition to ext3 but cannot seem to create folders inside it or copy files to it.. does any1 have any idea how to fix that? | 20:19 |
| nosrednaekim | AndreSTC » no. but I think you can reset it somehow | 20:19 |
| Powerking89670 | Is there a way to restart my sound devices so I do not need to reboot to use them again? | 20:20 |
| flipstar | amerio: you propably have to set permissions to acces the partition - or mount it as user | 20:20 |
| amerio | flipstar how to do that ? | 20:20 |
| amerio | flipstar its mounted but cannot create folders or copy files to it | 20:21 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » ok, that shoul be able to do it | 20:21 |
| ubuntu__ | ok thx | 20:21 |
| ubuntu__ | but one last thing | 20:21 |
| ubuntu__ | when I try to acces the external device via dolphin | 20:21 |
| ubuntu__ | it says at the bottom | 20:22 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » putting the removeable device first in boot priority could be easier though | 20:22 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » don't try to access it while you are installing! | 20:22 |

| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » why are you trying to read it? is there data on it? | 20:23 |
| ubuntu__ | yes | 20:23 |
| flipstar | amerio: you could open konqueror with root right <kdesu konqueror /media/> and then right click on the directory where your mounted partition is in and set permissions | 20:23 |
| dorkface | Hi all, I love the CLI as much as anybody, and that means whenever I am typing and some other program comes up in my way, it becomes VERY frustrating. Is there a way to prevent ANY program from taking focus away from konsole? | 20:23 |
| amerio | flipstar I use gnome , dont have konqueror | 20:24 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » ah.. in that case, go into systemsettings->advanced->disks and partitions, enter admin mode, click edit on sda1, and allow it to be mounted by anyone | 20:24 |
| nosrednaekim | amerio » in that case..... #ubuntu | 20:24 |
| dorkface | other than keeping the window at the top | 20:24 |
| ubuntu__ | ok... give me two secs^^ | 20:24 |
| amerio | nosrednaekim yeah I know , but they never answer :( | 20:24 |
| nosrednaekim | dorkface » uhh go to ctrl+alt+f2 :) | 20:25 |
| dorkface | nosrednaekim: hehe | 20:25 |
| flipstar | amerio: then replace konqueror with your file browser | 20:25 |
| nosrednaekim | amerio » well, we can't really help you here since you do not have the tools we have | 20:25 |
| nosrednaekim | dorkface » but seriously.. there is a way to enable focus stealing prevention | 20:25 |

| amerio | nosredanekim thats true , i thought some1 could help me , thanx anyway | 20:26 |
| Alen | can i add repo on Feist Fawn to update my Kubuntu ? | 20:26 |
| nosrednaekim | Alen » update or upgrade? | 20:26 |
| Alen | KDE 3.5.9 | 20:26 |
| Alen | update | 20:26 |
| Alen | not upgrade | 20:26 |
| nosrednaekim | Alen » no, thats not available for fiesty | 20:26 |
| Alen | ok :( | 20:26 |
| Alen | thank anyway | 20:27 |
| ubuntu__ | what mountpoint should I set? | 20:27 |
| nosrednaekim | Alen » its just a bug-fix release | 20:27 |
| ForgeAus | alen the easiest way is to go into adept | 20:27 |
| ForgeAus | and manage packages | 20:27 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » /media/something | 20:27 |
| ubuntu__ | ok | 20:27 |
| ubuntu__ | and enable at boot? | 20:27 |
| ForgeAus | (or is it manage sources) something like that | 20:27 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » don't worry about that, since the liveCD will forget your settings | 20:28 |

| Thug_Nasty | Okay retarded question for you when you have a minute. I have an HP printer and in the printer settigns I have printout mode as like draft grayscale. But when I pring something, the black text is printed green. It's not a hardware problem because when I print stuff on XP it comesout fine. Any ideas what I need to change settings wise? Thanks. | 20:32 |
| Thug_Nasty | The problem happens when on Kubuntu*. | 20:32 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm how do I get myself unbanned from #Debian? | 20:32 |
| oloughlin75 | ForgeAus: you don't? | 20:32 |
| ForgeAus | guess not :( | 20:33 |
| ForgeAus | I wonder how long their bans last | 20:33 |
| kaanselhep | can anyone help me with KDevelop | 20:33 |
| ubuntu__ | -.- just noticed that the drive does not show up in the systemsettings and konqueror all the time, its like on, off, on, off/switches | 20:33 |
| ForgeAus | KDevelop rocks! | 20:34 |
| kaanselhep | why line/code completion doesn't work though? | 20:34 |
| trappist | ForgeAus: I once got banned from #debian for politely disagreeing with an op on a technical issue. then I switched to ubuntu (and #ubuntu) | 20:34 |
| kaanselhep | do i have to enable it after first install? | 20:34 |
| ForgeAus | um kaansel I think #Kubuntu-dev or #KDE-dev are more likely useful to you | 20:34 |
| flipstar | kaanselhep: yes | 20:34 |
| kaanselhep | ok | 20:34 |
| flipstar | install bash_completion | 20:34 |
| nosrednaekim | Thug_Nasty » you have to set the mode to greyscale | 20:35 |
| trappist | flipstar: bash_completion doesn't handle code completion in IDEs | 20:35 |
| ForgeAus | does kdevelop even have code completion? | 20:35 |
| ForgeAus | something like komodo probably does (dunno if theres a linux vers of that tho) | 20:35 |
| oloughlin75 | eclipse does and supports c i think | 20:35 |
| trappist | ForgeAus: there's a linux version of komodo, and it rocks | 20:35 |
| kaanselhep | lol okay how do i enable it? | 20:36 |
| Thug_Nasty | nosrednaekim: When I do that, would that completely disable color? Like if there is black and color in the same document or whatever, how can I get both? | 20:36 |
| ForgeAus | trappist sounds like it should be my next project :) | 20:36 |
| trappist | ForgeAus: of course, it's not free | 20:36 |
| flipstar | kaanselhep: trappist sorry i overread that kdevelop line | 20:36 |
| ForgeAus | it makes for an awesome Python editor :) | 20:36 |
| nosrednaekim | Thug_Nasty » well, usually when that happens, the black is printed with the color cartridge (dumb, I know) | 20:36 |
| Thug_Nasty | nosrednaekim: Okay, good to know. Thanks. | 20:37 |

| nosrednaekim | ForgeAus » yeah... but i'm on amd64... I don't think java is going to be fun | 20:40 |
| nosrednaekim | ubuntu__ » ok | 20:40 |

| anon32 | God I want native ZFS... I don't even care if it violates GPL. To hell with that. | 20:41 |

| nosrednaekim | you can get it....with FUSE | 20:41 |
| anon32 | which is SLOW | 20:41 |
| ForgeAus | theres a wiki site with python ide's | 20:41 |
| anon32 | therefore making it USELESS | 20:41 |
| ForgeAus | (and that of many other languages too | 20:42 |
| ForgeAus | unless its not a wiki lol but there is defienitely a site that lists IDE's for various languages... | 20:42 |

| trappist | coggz: if your printer is listed as unsupported, you may be out of luck. but just for fun, what model is it? | 20:49 |
| coggz | i know how to do that, i have a hp printer working over a samba share | 20:49 |
| valery | Hello. Where i can set number tty? (Ctrl+Shift+F1..F2..F3) | 20:49 |

| === ubuntu_ is now known as Neumaennl | ||
| Neumaennl | why did you buy a lexmakr in the first place? | 20:52 |
| coggz | i had it for over a year, when the whole house used windows | 20:52 |
| Neumaennl | they may only cost 30€ but they come with almost empty ink cartridges and those cost 40€ and up :P | 20:52 |
| coggz | now i have switched, but the print server is win | 20:53 |
| ForgeAus | is there a way to install .deb's without dpkg? | 20:53 |
| coggz | no, ink is only £10 | 20:53 |
| ForgeAus | (ie manually?) | 20:53 |
| flipstar | ForgeAus: gdebo can install debs but i guess everything with packages on debian depends on dpkg but im not sure | 20:54 |
| Neumaennl | coggz: I don't know anything about Lexmark apart from that I only hear complaints about them | 20:54 |
| flipstar | *gedebi | 20:54 |
| flipstar | *gdebi | 20:54 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm this box doesn't have gdebi | 20:55 |
| trappist | coggz: if you can extract the ppd from this mac driver, you may be on to something: http://www.opendrivers.com/driver/231862/lexmark-x2230-x2250-all-in-one-driver-v1.0.7-mac-os-10-free-download.html | 20:55 |
| ForgeAus | really isn't a .deb just a compressed file? | 20:55 |
| coggz | ok, i will give it a shot | 20:55 |
| ForgeAus | (with scripts to install binaries/source with?) | 20:56 |
| sj_ | hi! I#ve got a strange problem after upgrading kde to 3.5.9: the path ist set to the rootfolder (/) instead my desktop folder (/home/user/desktop). I can't use the kcontrol module "Paths" to change the path, because it tries to move all the systemfolders into the new Desktop folder :) | 20:57 |
| sj_ | Does anybody knows where the path can be set manually? | 20:58 |
| ForgeAus | you can use export keyword | 20:58 |
| ForgeAus | to set environment variables | 20:58 |
| trappist | sj_: are you talking about the PATH environment variable? | 20:58 |
| ForgeAus | but to put it in a script I aren't sure | 20:58 |
| ForgeAus | possibly something like bash.rc ? | 20:59 |
| flipstar | ForgeAus: right a .deb is only a compressed file with control.tar.gz, data.tar.gz, debian-binary | 20:59 |
| sj_ | no - im talking about the configuration of the folder containing the files you see on the Desktop | 20:59 |
| ForgeAus | flipstar | 20:59 |
| ForgeAus | whats control.tar.gz and data.tar.gz ? | 21:00 |
| Ertain | Hello everyone. I once saw an applet for the desktop which organized your icons into "baskets". It's not the program "basKet", though. | 21:00 |
| ForgeAus | (does one of them contain binaries, are some source packages?) | 21:00 |
| vsudilov_ | hey guys, if I want to ssh into a machine, start a process, logout of that machine, and still have that process running after the logout, what must be done? I'm using bash | 21:00 |
| trappist | coggz: actually it looks like those are the wrong drivers - usually if there are mac drivers for a printer, you can use the ppd in linux, since macos uses cups. but it doesn't look like those drivers support that printer, and it doesn't look like there are any mac OR linux drivers for that printer. | 21:00 |
| ForgeAus | and what kind of compression is the .deb itself (I get the internal tarballs) but how to decompress .deb without dpkg? | 21:00 |
| coggz | ? | 21:01 |
| trappist | ForgeAus: I've never done it, but I imagine it's similar to rpm, where you have to use cpio tools | 21:01 |
| coggz | so those mac drivers are wrong | 21:01 |
| ForgeAus | I have cpio | 21:01 |
| martijn81 | ForgeAus: you can probably use ark fot that | 21:01 |
| trappist | coggz: well, for your printer, yeah, it seems so | 21:01 |
| anon32 | ForgeAus, I believe it is a shar archive containing two gzipped tarballs | 21:01 |
| anon32 | 7-zip can open it | 21:01 |
| flipstar | ForgeAus: data contains the data..control.tar.gz contains control md5sums postinst postrm prerm | 21:01 |
| trappist | ForgeAus: I don't think it's cpio, I just think that like rpm it's more than just a compressed archive | 21:02 |
| ForgeAus | I don't have 7z | 21:02 |
| coggz | trappist: ill have to keep looking | 21:02 |
| sourcemaker | are you using kde 3.5.9? | 21:02 |
| ForgeAus | yes it is like an rpm that much I know | 21:02 |

| sj_ | seems to be an older problem, i found a forum posting fromm 2003 describing the problem | 21:27 |
| BluesKaj | SVN , more likely ...a bit of PITA for me | 21:27 |
| Tm_T | BluesKaj: svn ofcourse, I can't wait packages, if I try to fiddle with upstream | 21:28 |
| BluesKaj | right | 21:28 |
| BluesKaj | I think i'll wait for the "official release" :) | 21:29 |
| Tm_T | heh, you should, as said, currently b0rky | 21:29 |
| Tm_T | but this is slipping to way too offtopic | 21:29 |
| BluesKaj | altho betas like firefox are easier to dump if they get problematic , so FF3 b3 is quite good | 21:31 |
| BluesKaj | so far | 21:31 |
| wromich | hi people:) | 21:33 |
| icanhasadmin | Hi. | 22:06 |
| oloughlin75 | Hello! | 22:06 |
| NickPresta | hi icanhasadmin | 22:06 |
| jpatrick | !hi | icanhasadmin | 22:06 |
| ubotu | icanhasadmin: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 22:06 |
| icanhasadmin | Thanks.. I have a lil problem but I don't think it's kde related, should I ask in #ubuntu? | 22:07 |
| NickPresta | icanhasadmin, are you running Kubuntu or Ubuntu? | 22:07 |
| icanhasadmin | Ubuntu 7.10, but I installed KDE afterwards. Gnome is still my default tho. | 22:07 |
| tekteen | you can ask it on both if it is not kde related. | 22:07 |
| icanhasadmin | lol well thanks i guess :D | 22:07 |
| tekteen | when you installed kubuntu-desktop did you make kdm or gdm the default login manager? | 22:08 |
| icanhasadmin | gdm | 22:08 |
| tekteen | ok | 22:08 |
| tekteen | do you know how to switch to kde? | 22:09 |
| icanhasadmin | Yes :) | 22:09 |
| tekteen | ok | 22:09 |
| icanhasadmin | But that doesn't involve my problem, lol. My audio doesn't work. | 22:09 |
| tekteen | I think this is more of a gnome question | 22:09 |
| jpatrick | !sound > icanhasadmin | 22:09 |
| icanhasadmin | Ok then. | 22:09 |
| tekteen | wait | 22:09 |
| tekteen | is sound not working in kde | 22:09 |
| icanhasadmin | Well I know a little about what I'm doing, but thank you jpatrick :) | 22:10 |
| icanhasadmin | tekteen: it's not working in either | 22:10 |
| tekteen | ok | 22:10 |
| jpatrick | icanhasadmin: see ubotu's pm for more info :) | 22:10 |
| icanhasadmin | I did, I've been reading through those files most of the last hour.. | 22:10 |
| icanhasadmin | I guess I'm having trouble figuring out if maybe it's just not supported? It's a HDA SB450 | 22:13 |
| tekteen | I will look it up | 22:14 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: just started reading. Whats your problem? Sound card not working? Does it work in gnome? | 22:14 |
| icanhasadmin | thank you | 22:15 |
| icanhasadmin | It works in neither kde or gnome. ubuntu seems to recognize it, i can mute and unmute and change volume | 22:16 |
| icanhasadmin | just no sound. no OS sounds, no audio from videos or music | 22:16 |
| oloughlin75 | intel hd audio? | 22:16 |
| icanhasadmin | you guessed it | 22:17 |
| sfire | does anyone know if the problems with ATI video cards and kaffeine have been fixed? | 22:17 |
| Artimus | Is there anyway to set the default ethernet connection in KNetworkManager? When I resume my computer, it tries to get an ip address with eth1, meaning I can't get on the internet until I manually tell knetworkmanager to connect with eth0. | 22:17 |
| icanhasadmin | i can't figure out the right modprobe command for it, ATI HDA SB450 | 22:17 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: I didnt deal with it. The newest alsa drivers work great, but youll have to recompile every time theres a kernal update. :/ | 22:18 |
| hola | sameone help me to configure my webcam? | 22:18 |
| oloughlin75 | !webcam | 22:18 |
| ubotu | Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 22:18 |

| icanhasadmin | oloughlin75: so wait, it works... if you do something? | 22:19 |
| === sparklingshrew is now known as shinygerbil | ||
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: i used the latest alsa drivers -- not officially support by ubuntu and you have to reinstall them every time theres a kernal upgrade | 22:21 |
| oloughlin75 | but they work great :) | 22:21 |
| === deshayesml is now known as Ops | ||
| jeffy124 | hi again everyone. i want to report a bug in Kopete. where should i report the bug? bugs.kde.org or launchpad? | 22:22 |
| icanhasadmin | ok, is there a guide to installing the new alsa drivers somewhere? i'm guessing i might have to remove the old ones? | 22:23 |
| icanhasadmin | and do I have to compile them INTO the kernel? | 22:23 |
| oloughlin75 | dont have to remove the old ones | 22:23 |
| kaminix | What's the name of the power manager application for KDE? I want to restart it. Does it require sudo? | 22:23 |
| tekteen | http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-hda-intel | 22:23 |
| Maxim000 | Where can I see (edit) command that execute when I press Log out - hibernate in KDE? | 22:24 |

| arcticpenguin380 | is p933MHz and 512mb ram enough for kubuntu? | 22:25 |
| tekteen | ok | 22:25 |
| oloughlin75 | yes arcticpenguin380 | 22:25 |
| icanhasadmin | tek, "cp /downloads/alsa-* ." returns an error, am i missing something? | 22:25 |
| tekteen | yes | 22:25 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: should be cd | 22:26 |
| oloughlin75 | i think | 22:26 |
| icanhasadmin | oh, yep, i'm an idiot | 22:26 |
| jeffy124 | arcticpenguin380: i'm using an old intel celeron with 512MB of ram, and KDE runs alright. just takes a few seconds to load up things. | 22:26 |
| icanhasadmin | wait no, it says cp | 22:26 |
| jeffy124 | it's a dell btw, pretty average. | 22:26 |
| hola | oloughlin75: problably not by it seem stange that it is not possibile to allow it works | 22:27 |
| hola | sameone help me to configure my webcam? | 22:27 |
| arcticpenguin380 | i might go back to my old p3 if i sell my new computer | 22:27 |
| oloughlin75 | !es | hola, lo siento pero su ingles es un poco dificil para entender.... | 22:28 |
| ubotu | hola, lo siento pero su ingles es un poco dificil para entender....: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 22:28 |
| jeffy124 | i want to report a bug in Kopete. where should i report the bug? bugs.kde.org or launchpad? | 22:28 |
| flipstar | lp | 22:28 |
| oloughlin75 | jeffy124: whats the bug? | 22:28 |
| jeffy124 | it crashes when i try and sign in | 22:28 |
| oloughlin75 | for msn??? | 22:28 |
| jeffy124 | it works on 7.04 though | 22:28 |
| icanhasadmin | it says "cp /downloads/alsa-* ." verbatim. do i need to have something i don't have? | 22:28 |
| jeffy124 | ya, for msn. | 22:28 |
| oloughlin75 | jeffy124: its been fixed... did you update everything? sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade? | 22:29 |
| jeffy124 | errrrrrrr... how long would that take on a 30kb connection? | 22:29 |
| oloughlin75 | a while | 22:29 |
| tekteen | lol | 22:29 |
| icanhasadmin | lol | 22:29 |
| oloughlin75 | uhhh | 22:29 |
| icanhasadmin | day or two | 22:30 |
| jeffy124 | the updates said >200MB worth of crap. | 22:30 |
| flipstar | omg | 22:30 |
| oloughlin75 | jeffy124: open adept package manager | 22:30 |
| oloughlin75 | click the fetch update button | 22:30 |
| oloughlin75 | search for kopete and request update or reinstall | 22:31 |
| jeffy124 | ok | 22:31 |
| oloughlin75 | im not sure if it gives you an update option | 22:31 |
| oloughlin75 | but that shouldnt take long | 22:31 |
| oloughlin75 | ~19MB | 22:32 |
| jeffy124 | oloughlin75: ok, so the version in the repos will be more recent than the copy on my 7.10 install cd? | 22:33 |
| oloughlin75 | yes | 22:33 |
| jeffy124 | cool. hopefully there's a fix :S | 22:33 |
| icanhasadmin | oloughlin75: "cp /downloads/alsa-* ." isn't getting me anywhere, is it referencing something i don't have? | 22:34 |
| oloughlin75 | its where you downloaded alsa | 22:34 |
| oloughlin75 | that tut looks old and confusing :/ | 22:34 |
| icanhasadmin | it is lol | 22:34 |
| icanhasadmin | so i can't download it from the command prompt? | 22:34 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: that tut is for installing and compiling alsa from scratch | 22:35 |
| icanhasadmin | i see, is that neccesary? | 22:35 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: which is what i did and works | 22:35 |
| icanhasadmin | ok.. so where do i download the source code? | 22:35 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: is a pain to get it working with the alsa in the repos as far as i know | 22:35 |
| oloughlin75 | www.alsa-project.org | 22:35 |
| oloughlin75 | on the right -- you need the driver, lib, and utils | 22:36 |
| icanhasadmin | k | 22:36 |
| icanhasadmin | this is going to suck isn't it? | 22:36 |
| oloughlin75 | its not bad | 22:36 |
| oloughlin75 | but youll need two packages | 22:36 |
| crimsun_ | it shouldn't if you use module-assistant with hardy's alsa-source. | 22:36 |
| icanhasadmin | crimsun_: elaberate a bit? | 22:36 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: your on 7.10 right? | 22:37 |
| icanhasadmin | yep | 22:37 |
| oloughlin75 | the repos source is version 1.0.14 i think... latest is 1.0.16 | 22:38 |
| crimsun_ | I think I may be able to relax the versioned depends so that users can install hardy's alsa-source directly into gutsy. | 22:38 |
| icanhasadmin | that sounds nice, but it might as well be in russian :/ | 22:38 |
| oloughlin75 | crimsun_: thatd be easier, but does it work? | 22:38 |
| crimsun_ | oloughlin75: that's what I'm testing | 22:39 |
| crimsun_ | I can't make my computer go faster | 22:39 |
| root_____ | hi. me in a deep trouble . i am in console with irssi. i cant login to kde. when i enter username pwd. it waits for 5 secs and again asks the username and pwd. last time some msg came when i was runing kde. "cant lauch klauncher" and something about dcop. i think i deleted a .file . may be dcop in /home folder. (but the ather accounts are not working too. help pls....... | 22:39 |
| oloughlin75 | crimsun_: lol alright | 22:39 |
| hola | sameone help me to configure my webcam? | 22:39 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: otherwise, installing froms source just takes a while to compile, but its not difficult | 22:40 |
| icanhasadmin | i wouldn't mind but i'll probabaly need help. i don't really get it. | 22:40 |
| oloughlin75 | let crimsun_see if the easy way works ;) | 22:40 |
| jeffy124 | ok i got Kopete reinstalled but i still have the same problem. and also, amsn sucks really bad. does Pidgin work with KDE? | 22:40 |
| icanhasadmin | kk :D | 22:41 |
| * root_____ waits for help | 22:41 | |
| oloughlin75 | pidgin will tke you a year and a half to download jeffy124 | 22:41 |
| oloughlin75 | youll need ~40-50MB of gnome libraries | 22:41 |
| crimsun_ | it actually works all the way back through edgy. | 22:41 |
| crimsun_ | so - hooray, no extra work on my part. | 22:41 |
| jeffy124 | because of the dependecies related to Gnome? | 22:41 |
| oloughlin75 | jeffy124: yep | 22:41 |
| icanhasadmin | nice.. so what do i download/type and where crim? | 22:41 |
| karthikp | Anyone else have this problem with akregator - it can't seem to display pictures. | 22:42 |
| karthikp | Pics in a webpage are okay. | 22:42 |
| jeffy124 | bugger. looks like i'll have to use amsn *shudder*. thanks for the help anyway. | 22:42 |
| root_____ | hi. me in a deep trouble . i am in console with irssi. i cant login to kde. when i enter username pwd. it waits for 5 secs and again asks the username and pwd. last time some msg came when i was runing kde. "cant lauch klauncher" and something about dcop. i think i deleted a .file . may be dcop in /home folder. (but the ather accounts are not working too. help pls....... | 22:42 |
| karthikp | But, just a pic (a link to a jpg from one of the feeds) and it just shows unicode. | 22:42 |
| karthikp | Or something. | 22:42 |
| NickPresta | karthikp, I use akregator. Can I have the feed in question? Let me try it. | 22:42 |
| karthikp | (Think it's unicode...) | 22:42 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: whats happens when you do the startx command? | 22:43 |
| karthikp | Try any of the reddit stories that show up with [pic] in the subject. | 22:43 |
| karthikp | They often link to a jpg file. | 22:43 |
| icanhasadmin | crimsun_: ? | 22:43 |
| crimsun_ | icanhasadmin: sudo apt-get install module-assistant debconf-utils && wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/alsa-driver/alsa-source_1.0.16-0ubuntu2_all.deb && sudo dpkg -i alsa-source_1.0.16-0ubuntu2_all.deb | 22:43 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: iam in recoverymode . using irssi. how can i type the startx command? | 22:43 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: in the termal type in startx and hit enter | 22:44 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: i also reconfigured xorg by dpkg... | 22:44 |
| flipstar | root_____: just use tty2 | 22:44 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: thats your problem | 22:44 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: flipstar i would have to quit irrsi then? | 22:44 |
| root_____ | flipstar: tty2 ? | 22:44 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: dont bother trying it | 22:44 |
| NickPresta | karthikp, I added the reddit feed and searched for "pic". I can open all related articles just fine. | 22:45 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: what was wrong with xorg in the first place for you to rebuild it? | 22:45 |
| karthikp | Try the one that says, "The adventures of Lord Mario [img]' | 22:45 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: some one ask me to. i have a problem with graphics. but any how . what now? | 22:45 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: its something about dcop too i gues | 22:45 |
| icanhasadmin | crimsun_: thank you, will i have to reboot or log out/in? | 22:46 |
| root_____ | flipstar: whats tty2? | 22:46 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: you need to replace the xorg.conf with the backup (named xorg.conf.bunchofnumbers) | 22:46 |
| NickPresta | karthikp, a prompt opens and asks me if I want to open with Gwenview or save | 22:46 |
| karthikp | In my case, it just goes ahead and loads the image. | 22:46 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: i already did. by sudo cp xorg.conf.bak xorg.conf | 22:46 |
| flipstar | root_____: tty2 is the virtual terminal number 2 .. ctrg+alt+f2 | 22:46 |
| karthikp | And it shows a screen full of unicode like characters. | 22:46 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: and it still wont load? | 22:47 |
| karthikp | Either behavior is bad, right? In a normal browser, it should just go ahead and show the image... | 22:47 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: nop | 22:47 |
| root_____ | flipstar: thanks! | 22:47 |
| oloughlin75 | root_____: im not good enough in the console to help you | 22:47 |
| unagi | !seach | 22:48 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about seach - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:48 |
| unagi | !search | 22:48 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about search - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:48 |
| unagi | how do i search for files | 22:48 |
| oloughlin75 | unagi: !find name | 22:48 |
| unagi | in the command? | 22:48 |
| oloughlin75 | oo | 22:48 |
| karthikp | NickPresta, is there some setting that will let akregator just go ahead and render the image as an image, rather than as a bunch of unicode? | 22:48 |
| flipstar | use locate unagi | 22:48 |
| icanhasadmin | ok I can't tell if this worked or not.. it downloaded 2 things but at the end it said Cannot write to `alsa-source_1.0.16-0ubuntu2_all.deb' (Permission denied). | 22:48 |
| oloughlin75 | no, locate filename | 22:48 |
| oloughlin75 | unagi: locate filename | 22:48 |
| flipstar | or find or whereis or which..there are many commands | 22:48 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: i can walk you through cimpiling from source | 22:49 |
| crimsun_ | icanhasadmin: pwd | 22:49 |
| crimsun_ | icanhasadmin: and you haven't even begun; you're just fetching the preliminary bits. | 22:49 |
| icanhasadmin | pwd huh? | 22:49 |
| crimsun_ | yes, that's a literal command | 22:49 |
| crimsun_ | troubleshooting 'Permission denied' | 22:49 |
| icanhasadmin | oh i'm in the wrong folder | 22:50 |
| crimsun_ | right, thought as much :=) | 22:50 |
| icanhasadmin | how do i get back? | 22:50 |
| Arwen | use "cd" | 22:50 |
| flipstar | cd .. | 22:50 |
| flipstar | cd takes you to home dir | 22:50 |
| karthikp | One more question about akregator. I start it up inside kontact. When I start kontact, it used to start akgregator as well. Just like it starts kmail. But that doesn't seem to happen since Gutsy. | 22:50 |
| NickPresta | karthikp, I don't know. I don't subscribe to any feeds that frequently show lone images. Try asking in #kde. | 22:51 |
| hola | sameone help me to configure my webcam? | 22:51 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: i got a msg. when i typed startx. cound not init font path element /user/share/fonts/x11/cirillic | 22:51 |
| oloughlin75 | :/ | 22:51 |
| karthikp | NickPresta, thanks for you help! I'll head to #kde, then! | 22:51 |
| icanhasadmin | ok running that last one again at root folder | 22:52 |
| wad | Hi, folks! So I got a new computer for home, and it's running Kubuntu. It's in the kitchen right now. I'm at work, and I was just able to dive in and get to it through my home network. I want to do something geekish to impress my wife, like have it pop up a photo of myself, or something like that. I have shell access to it, she's on the GUI. What are my options? | 22:52 |
| oloughlin75 | hola: ¿por que no preguntío en #kubuntu-es? | 22:52 |
| flipstar | root_____: dont know whats the exact problem but you could try dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig | 22:52 |
| hola | oloughlin75: why espanol | 22:52 |
| hola | oloughlin75: | 22:52 |
| root_____ | flipstar: ok | 22:52 |
| Arwen | wad, do it right now? | 22:52 |
| icanhasadmin | it says i need debhelper | 22:53 |
| Arwen | use some VNC hacks | 22:53 |
| wad | Okay... | 22:53 |
| wad | I can install a VNC client on it, is that what you're thinking? | 22:53 |
| Arwen | (incidentally, the only way you could do this is it were set up really insecurely) | 22:53 |
| wad | Or use it to take over her mouse? | 22:53 |
| oloughlin75 | hola: no puedo entenderle su ingles | 22:53 |
| Arwen | wad, no, you need remote access to the existing X11 session | 22:53 |
| wad | !spanish | 22:53 |
| ubotu | Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 22:53 |
| wad | !es | 22:53 |
| Arwen | which would mean compromising her login somehow | 22:54 |
| NickPresta | wad, `display -display XSERVER IMAGE` replace XSERVER and IMAGE where appropriate. | 22:54 |
| oloughlin75 | wad: im asking him why he hasnt asked in there, as iv posted that several times | 22:54 |
| wad | Ah! That looks good! | 22:54 |
| root_____ | flipstar: conflicting actions -e control -r remove | 22:54 |
| hola | oloughlin75: spea italina | 22:54 |
| oloughlin75 | !it | 22:54 |
| ubotu | Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! | 22:54 |
| oloughlin75 | :) | 22:54 |
| NickPresta | wad, or just run `eject` in a loop, sleeping a couple seconds in between :) | 22:54 |
| Arwen | NickPresta, that would incidentally only be possible if he were root, but... | 22:54 |
| wad | lol | 22:54 |
| wad | I've got root. :) | 22:55 |
| hola | oloughlin75: boh.....i can't understand you | 22:55 |
| Arwen | go for it | 22:55 |
| * Arwen 'll bet she'll close it as soon as it appears | 22:55 | |
| flipstar | root_____: that is the error message when you try dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig ? | 22:55 |
| * wad decides to try the display image thingie. | 22:55 | |
| Arwen | then she'll complain about popups :-P | 22:55 |
| root_____ | flipstar: yes | 22:55 |
| wad | heh | 22:55 |
| Arwen | http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=206800512 <-- Thunderbird isn't dead? | 22:56 |

| root_____ | flipstar: fontconfig is not installed . its says... | 22:56 |
| NickPresta | amigo, These packages are not well supported. Security and other updates may not be applied promptly. | 22:56 |
| Arwen | amigo, because the developers decided not to bother | 22:56 |

| oloughlin75 | flipstar: hes got a bad xorg.conf and some other problems | 22:57 |
| NickPresta | amigo, I would assume the packages would be available in the next couple of days after testing and what ever else is completed. | 22:57 |
| flipstar | oh then just reconfigure the x-server..? | 22:57 |
| crimsun_ | icanhasadmin: "sudo apt-get -f install" should fix that | 22:58 |
| flipstar | or reinstall graphic drivers | 22:58 |
| NickPresta | amigo, is there a reason you need http://www.kde.org/announcements/changelogs/changelog3_5_8to3_5_9.php _right now_? | 22:58 |
| amigo | NickPresta: ok | 22:58 |
| oloughlin75 | flipstar: thats what broke it in the first place | 22:58 |
| |Ange|us| | guys | 22:58 |
| crimsun_ | icanhasadmin: now, after that last command completes successfully, use: "sudo m-a clean,a-i alsa-source" | 22:58 |
| |Ange|us| | someone here knows how to get the QCELP codec installed on linux? | 22:58 |
| miladen | Ey guys is it possible to connect to my kubuntu desktop from remote like windows | 22:58 |
| SlimeyPete | yes | 22:59 |
| Arwen | |Ange|us|, what media player are you trying to use? Does it have a Linux version? | 22:59 |
| SlimeyPete | !rdp | 22:59 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about rdp - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:59 |
| SlimeyPete | hmm | 22:59 |
| oloughlin75 | crimsun_: does hardy include alsaconf? | 22:59 |
| amigo | NickPresta: yes. I need it chlogs | 22:59 |
| SlimeyPete | miladen: well, yes, you can use vnc | 22:59 |
| flipstar | i prefer vnc | 22:59 |
| flipstar | !vnc | miladen | 22:59 |
| ubotu | miladen: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 22:59 |
| miladen | so i should just google it? | 22:59 |
| SlimeyPete | !vnc | 22:59 |
| miladen | !freenx | 22:59 |
| ubotu | FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX | 22:59 |
| crimsun_ | oloughlin75: no, and there are no plans to ever include it, since it is 1) broken, 2) superceded by udev. | 22:59 |
| Arwen | |Ange|us|, in case there is no Linux native version, you might want to consult <http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/codec-importing.html> | 22:59 |
| amigo | thx ppl. bb | 23:00 |

| oloughlin75 | root_____: you could try it | 23:06 |
| root_____ | oloughlin75: how to open that backup file? | 23:06 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: remove the CD from your repos | 23:06 |
| crimsun_ | icanhasadmin: for debhelper? You don't need your cd per se; it's likely due to your apt-cd line(s) being active in sources.list(5). | 23:06 |
| wad | NickPresta, hmm, I'm learning stuff. What do I put for XSERVER? localhost doesn't work... | 23:06 |
| icanhasadmin | how? | 23:07 |
| wad | I'm trying it on my laptop first, to see how it works. | 23:07 |
| root_____ | flipstar: still stuck | 23:07 |
| icanhasadmin | sorry i obviously had no idea what i'm doing, heh. | 23:07 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: you can open adept and go to third part sources and remove the CD | 23:07 |
| NickPresta | wad, put the DISPLAY. (echo $DISPLAY to see your current display. Something like :0) | 23:07 |
| oloughlin75 | go to manage repos then remove it | 23:07 |
| wad | ah! | 23:07 |
| * wad tries it | 23:07 | |
| icanhasadmin | open adept.. like it's a launchable application somewhere? | 23:07 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: under system | 23:08 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: Adept Manager | 23:08 |
| icanhasadmin | gotcha | 23:08 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: then click manager repositories, then click the third party tab, and remove the CD | 23:08 |
| icanhasadmin | er, i have to run it as admin | 23:08 |

| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: just open adept and itll ask you for the password | 23:10 |
| icanhasadmin | it didn't | 23:10 |
| root_____ | unagi_: may be xorg or may be some fontconfig or dcop problem | 23:11 |
| icanhasadmin | just told me i had to be admin | 23:11 |
| flipstar | how did you start it icanhasadmin ? | 23:11 |
| icanhasadmin | applications -> system tools -> adept | 23:11 |
| root_____ | unagi_: wad what should i do. i think reconfigureing all kde would doo good? | 23:11 |
| SlimeyPete | icanhasadmin: try pressing alt-f2 then typing "kdesudo adept" | 23:11 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: it alt + f2 and type in "kdesu adept_manager" without the quotes and hit enter | 23:11 |
| SlimeyPete | see if that works | 23:11 |
| oloughlin75 | need adept_manager | 23:12 |
| flipstar | icanhasadmin: hm it should be in menu like that | 23:12 |

| flipstar | kdesu is right | 23:12 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: it alt + f2 and type in "kdesu adept_manager" without the quotes and hit enter | 23:12 |

| flipstar | hm kdesu is same as kdesudo | 23:13 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: the adept menu | 23:13 |

| oloughlin75 | when was it asking for the cd? | 23:15 |
| hola | sameone help me to configure my webcam? | 23:15 |
| icanhasadmin | uhm, i was running,... something.. apt-get install -f? | 23:15 |
| oloughlin75 | icanhasadmin: i have no idea what you were doing lol | 23:16 |
| icanhasadmin | lol | 23:16 |
| icanhasadmin | yeah | 23:17 |
| icanhasadmin | apt-get -f install | 23:17 |
| oloughlin75 | fix broken packages | 23:17 |
| icanhasadmin | it said i needed debhelper | 23:17 |
| oloughlin75 | idk why though | 23:17 |
| icanhasadmin | so crim told me to apt-get -f install | 23:17 |
| Arwen | actually, "apt-get -f" just bypasses integrity checks | 23:18 |
| icanhasadmin | lol, that sounds very counter productive | 23:18 |
| icanhasadmin | is it possible i just don't have debhelper? :P | 23:18 |
| crimsun_ | Arwen: no. | 23:18 |
| Arwen | nah, if your setups is broken, it will have failed integrity checks | 23:18 |
| Arwen | hence the need to use it | 23:18 |
| crimsun_ | -f == --fix-broken | 23:18 |
| icanhasadmin | oooohhh! he told you :P kidding! | 23:18 |
| Arwen | crimsun_, "man apt-get" --> -f Attempt to continue if the integrity check fails | 23:18 |
| oloughlin75 | i dont see it Arwen | 23:19 |
| * icanhasadmin whistles | 23:19 | |
| icanhasadmin | so.. i still need debhelper... | 23:19 |
| crimsun_ | Arwen: no, -f does not bypass any sort of "integrity checks". | 23:19 |
| Arwen | it doesn't really matter either way, but... | 23:19 |
| oloughlin75 | Arwen: your talking about -m | 23:19 |
| Arwen | crimsun_, type "apt-get" without options. | 23:19 |
| Arwen | Read. | 23:19 |
| * crimsun_ chuckles | 23:20 | |
| Arwen | -m is "Attempt to continue if archives are unlocatable" | 23:20 |
| jerware | are there dj programs where i can make techno music ? | 23:20 |
| crimsun_ | I'll certainly file a bug to fix that description | 23:20 |
| crimsun_ | but as someone who digs into apt's guts, it's not "integrity checks" that's at issue there. | 23:20 |
| icanhasadmin | HI. HOW ARE YOU. | 23:21 |
| icanhasadmin | Why does apt-get ask me for a cd? | 23:21 |
| LjL | i'm very uppercase | 23:21 |
| RogueJediX | jerware: A couple, yes. You might want to check out Ubuntu Studio | 23:21 |
