ubotuIn KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)02:24

JucatoBluesKaj: yes, but not the icon box itself, but the wrench icon that you have to click03:55
Jucatostond: ok here's what you can try to do. follow it step by step ok?03:56
Jucatostond: plug in your PSP, it should show an icon on the desktop right?03:56
BluesKajnot the wrench icon , that just changes the icon for that file association03:56
JucatoBluesKaj: exactly03:56
JucatoBluesKaj: because it's a removable media, not a static file, so the normal icon change doesn't happen03:57
BluesKajhe just wants to change the icon for his ipod ,from his explanation03:57
Jucatoyes. and from his explanation, any change he makes doesn't stay whenever he replugs his PSP03:57

stondJucato yes I clicked the little wrench in the little bow04:03

Jucatothat should work now04:03
ForgeAusbasicaly means that the x-desktop is "transparent" and it uses Windows' decorators :)04:03

sjckhi, is there a way to install the divx browser-plugin (for opera or firefox)?07:03
membrivesjck, for firefox you have mplayer-plugin and mozilla-plugin-vlc I think07:05
nanothiefhi, I am having a problem with getting kubuntu feisty working in a vmware machine, when I install vmware-tools, window movement becomes very jerky. How can this be fixed?07:05
sjcknanothief  yea but if i try to watch some videos it says i dont have the plugin, when i click install plugin it opens a page which says only for windows : /07:06
membrivesjck, oh, I believe that mplayer-plugin mb only play MPEG07:07
membrivedunno if plays .avi :S07:07

sjckno, its for videos streams not for videos on my hdd07:10
crackhead_25where are you trying to stream anything from a .divx format?07:10
crackhead_25usually it's displayed in flash07:10
crackhead_25if it's reading divx, then just save as -- and watch it local07:11
sjckIve no TV, want to watch series while eating..07:11
nanothiefif you save the divx, you don't have to wait until it finishes downloading before you start watching it07:11
crackhead_25sjck, you're watching live tv through a cable card, you mean?07:11
sjckhow can I save it?07:12
sjckno, some unserious sites which I dont want to type in here (:07:12
nanothiefsjck: ...07:12
nanothief;D07:13
crackhead_25sjck: you can say it. it's ok. porn!07:14
crackhead_25lol07:14
sjckeating without watching my favorite series is boring. :(07:14
nanothiefsjck: well the download method is different for each site, a firefox extension called unplug can often do it07:17
sjckah, Ive heared of that plugin.. it can download youtube vids too if I remember correctly07:19
nanothiefthats right07:19
sjckalright nanothief thanks for the hint07:20
nanothiefnp07:21
nanothiefanyway, does anyone know the answer to my vmware problem from above? :D07:22
sjckanother question: kubuntu loads every app i didnt closed before i loged out. is there a way to disable it? I want only a few apps in autorun07:22
asobisystem settings -> service manager -> startup services07:24
sjckasobi dont see what should I uncheck there..07:27
asobiwhatever you don't want to autorun?07:28
sjckthere are no apps or something07:29
sjckonly services which sound kinda usefull07:29
Jucatoservice manager is for services/daemons. not apps07:29
prince_jammyssjck: what you want is session manager-> and make it so it doesnt remember your session07:29
asobior try session manager and select brand new session07:29
sjckah07:29
Jucatoor you can set it to restore a manually saved session07:30
asobiwhat jammy said07:30
Jucato(so you can manually save what apps you want to be started and never save a session automatically)07:30
sjckthanks!07:30
asobiwhat's a way to check list of codecs installed?07:31
_eMaX_hi all07:39
_eMaX_anyone knows why this may happen: I've all partitions of my disk to a new one by creating the partitions and then cp -av except for some files like /proc, /tmp, /media, /mnt. I then swap disks and try to boot from the new one. I can boot up to when I try to log in through kdm. This fails (drops me back to the logon screen). Switching to a console, I can log on as my normal user, but not become root, as /etc/sudoers is owned by my normal user, not by root.07:42
_eMaX_Now, when I mount the new disk having booted with the old one, /etc on the new disk is owned by root:root.07:42

prince_jammysinvite_: if for some reason it doesn't work, uid=1000,gid=1000  will make you the owner (if your uid is 1000, which you can verify with::  echo $UID )09:11

prince_jammysinvite_: i don't think you can change permissions of individual files within ntfs, if that's what you want to do09:13

ForgeAusum I'll see if I can find out10:12
ForgeAuswell ldconfig says its configures dynamic linker run-time bindings10:13
ForgeAusmeans it keeps the .dll's (or .so's) up-to-date10:14
ForgeAusI don't know why someone would want to defer it but perhaps its faster that way?10:14
ActionParsnipmakes sense, I've just seen it o much and finally got curious10:15

PolitikerNEUhello everyone - does anybody know how to load the "proprietary" intel wlan driver in hardy? Because it isn't loaded by default12:01
ForgeAushow do I empty cache .deb's once I'm done with installing them??12:03
ForgeAus(and partial ones)12:03
Jucatoapt-get clean12:03
ForgeAusthey're taking up too much space12:03
ForgeAusthanx Jucato I think I tried that with kpackage but it didn't do it for some reason12:04
ForgeAusat least it didn't seem to do anything and when I checked the cache they were still there12:04
JucatoI'm not familiar with kpackage's UI anymore. but did the command work?12:05
ForgeAuscan't tell you yet too busy running an installer12:05
ForgeAusbut once its don'e I'll try it12:05
ForgeAusI like kpackage alot :)12:06
PolitikerNEUBut kpackage hasn't automatic dependency resolving, right?12:06
ForgeAusits got support for most diff package managers (although I only tend to use apt and slackware, but I do the slackware stuff manually)12:07
PolitikerNEU*got12:07
ForgeAusum it has some dependancy stuff but I don't think its as good as adepts12:07
JucatoPolitikerNEU: it has12:07
Jucatodependency resolving doesn't depend on the GUI but on the backend. both use APT12:08
ForgeAusboth told me that installing Konqueror = broken packages tho12:08
PolitikerNEUah, ok12:08
ForgeAus(one of the dependancies filled in what it needed to install it)12:08
ForgeAusI don't know why it removed konqui in the first place :(12:08
ForgeAusbut anyway I got it back now so happy about that :)12:08
adnanhi12:08
ForgeAusand its 3.5.8 now12:08
JucatoForgeAus: perhaps what you used before was autoclean and not clean.12:08
ForgeAusahh Jucato with autoclean on does clean not work?12:08
ForgeAuscoz thats probably what I did12:09
Jucatonot familiar with the GUI but there are 2 possibilities: you enabled automatic cleaning of the cache or you chose a menu that ran "apt-get autoclean"12:09
ForgeAuswow this has lots to go to install stuff, I didn't think it was going to be so slow12:10
Jucatoman apt-get12:10
ForgeAusyeah I knew there was clean and autoclean and I did set autoclean on it sounded prudent12:10

ForgeAusI wonder what it would take to contrib an AndLinux metapackage12:23
ActionParsniphi eddieftw12:23
ForgeAusits not a full ubuntu backend12:24
ForgeAusin fact I can't even find kwin in the process list12:24
JucatoForgeAus: best place to ask is in their channel/forums :P12:25
ForgeAusapparently it takes too long to get registered for their forums12:25
Jucatoalthough the "not a full ubuntu backend" and "can't find kwin in the process list" is kinda unrelated12:26
ForgeAuswell kubuntu's backend is ubuntu too right?12:26
ForgeAus(at least the non-gnome bits)12:26
JohnFluxForgeAus: are you running gnome or kde?12:26
Jucatoso to speak12:26
ForgeAusJohn kde12:27
JohnFluxForgeAus: are you using compiz?12:27
ForgeAusno12:27
JucatoJohnFlux: he was referring to http://www.andlinux.org/12:27
JohnFluxJucato: ah okay12:27
ForgeAusI don't think compiz will work with this12:27
JucatoI don't think that really qualifies are "running KDE or GNOME" strictly :)12:27
ForgeAusor at least I wouldn't expect it to12:27
Jucatoyou can't expect kwin running on windows either :)12:27
ForgeAusJucato the installer I got had a kmenu for my windows system tray12:27
Jucatohence "strictly"12:28
ForgeAushehe I had it working in the nested X-server with Xephyr12:28
ForgeAuskwin and all12:28
ForgeAusa full KDE desktop12:28
Jucatothat's different. you're still running KWin in X12:28
ForgeAusyes12:28
JucatoI'm talking about your situation with andLinux12:28
ForgeAuswait whats different about it?12:28
ForgeAusrunning kwin on X and running kwin nested in X ?12:28
JucatoandLinux uses Xming. I don't know if that reuses an X window manager or uses Windows'12:29
ForgeAusneither, x-ming is the x-server not the wm12:30
JucatoI know.12:30
ForgeAusbut I don't get why it doesn't run Kwin because it does use KDE decorators (although it doesn't show them unless you tell xming to show the background)12:31
ForgeAusalso Xephyr :n & export DISPLAY=:n ; startkde worked but it shared the same DISPLAY variable, I needed a separate one12:32
ForgeAusie a session specific one12:32
JucatoI have to admit that andLinux is an alien beast and I don't know the inner workings of it.12:33
ForgeAushehe Jucato I don't expect you to12:33
Jucatobut anyway, your two statements earlier still dont add up :P12:33
ForgeAusyou know how little about Linux I know :)12:33
ForgeAuswhich 2?12:33
Jucato<Jucato> although the "not a full ubuntu backend" and "can't find kwin in the process list" is kinda unrelated12:33
ForgeAusoh the ubuntu backend thing12:33
ForgeAusok well then not a full Kubuntu backend is that happier?12:34
ForgeAusmost of KDE is there (even Kwin is installed, it just doesn't seem to be executed in the default environment)12:34
Jucatomaybe12:35
ForgeAusbut when I killed it for the Xephyr one it caused problems (and wouldn't let me run fkuxbox instead)12:35
ForgeAusbut I didn't get to see the errors on the xterm because I had a window infront of it12:35
ForgeAusended up crashing even windows itself lol12:35
ForgeAuswell lotsa apps I had running in windows anyway12:36
ForgeAus(so I reset)12:36
spirooJucato: thanks12:52
ForgeAusJucato the command to clean worked :)12:52
ForgeAus(ie apt-get clean )12:52
Jucato:)12:52
ForgeAusI almost forgot to get back to it :)12:52
Jucatoheh no problem. if it didn't work I'd be perplexed :P12:53
ForgeAusI think kpacage might have precluded sending the command because I'd set it to use autoclean12:53
ForgeAus(ie it probably didn't think it needed to manually clean)12:54
spirooI was mostly glad of Summer of Code when I saw every beautiful projects people are going to do. One of the most gladly news which I think is that someone actullay is goona code Kopete with MSNP15, which is MSN8.1 protocol :P Just lovely.12:54

ForgeAusI know I need to start a new development project... a pkgunity tool :)13:44
ForgeAussomething that stores a base of packages that can decypher/work with whatever type of package u throw at it (at least .tgz .rpm ,deb), and integrate it into the system harmoniously13:45

hydrogenstorbeck: compiz + beryl = compiz fusion, so you are basically recommended three different versions of the same software... all of which provide a compositing window manager... Xgl = A server with compositing extensions, installing xgl without compiz does not give you a 3d desktop14:06

mikademusI'm very sorry to say I'm getting fed up. I have been spending over a week not, several hours every day, trying to get a stable and up to date Linux system up, and though I have been a M$ detractor for two decades, I'm thinking of switching and becoming a fanboi15:39
jamadagni_hoi mikademus what's the problem15:40
jamadagni_@mikademus: if you state the prob clearly you can get solutions15:40
mikademusI have tried over 12 distro flavours, I have compiled my own kernels, I have done everything, but I can't get a stable system. And now I'm trying Kub8.04a6, and on three different installs it has broken in three different ways15:40
ForgeAusmikademus, perhaps you went the wrong way about it if it took you a week?15:41
ForgeAusmika, first of all whats your definition of stable?15:41
mikademusBooting. Not conflicting at every single thing I try to do.15:41
ForgeAussecondly something like feisty or gutsy would be more likely stable than an alpha of 8.0415:42
jamadagni_yeah @mikademus; don't try alphas15:42
jamadagni_gutsy is very stable15:42
ForgeAusthirdly what kinda ways do you break it?15:42
jamadagni_@day: can you help me with skim15:42
mikademusI'm a techie, I have programmed computers for 25 years... And I *WANT* Linux. I hate WIndows. But finally my enthusiasm is getting worn too thin :(15:42
ForgeAusmika you odn' tneed enthusiasm15:42
jamadagni_@mikademus: ok but don't use alphas just because you are a techie15:43
jamadagni_have you really tried gutsy15:43
mikademusWell, the firtst distro I tried was 7.10. It especially was prone to errors when trying proprietary drivers.15:43
ForgeAusalso note solutions aren't always easy15:43
ForgeAusyes well proprietary drivers can be problematic15:43
ForgeAusthats not 7.10's fault15:43
ForgeAusof course you can use the opensource drivers15:43

ForgeAusthat should work15:44
daySistema>Prefrencia>Sesiones15:44
ForgeAusok what else?15:44
mikademusBasically, I want a system with 2.6.24 to support my Ergonomic 4000 keyboard. Then I want KDE 3.6.8\9 (I think those are the latest non\4 versions?), and I want WINE to try to move as much from windows over as possible. I want Compiz or Metisse, but there's where most problems rise, I think.15:44
mikademus(reading link)15:45
ForgeAusum mikademus I'm detecting an issue here15:45
mikademusplease tell me15:46
ForgeAusyou want a current 3.5.8/9?... and you want compiz and you want this and you want that?15:46
mikademusI just listed my wishes15:46
mikademusI'm a newb in LInux, though a long time supporter15:46
ForgeAuswell first of all I tried metisse and it really slowed down my system it was nice fx tho (built into mandriva)15:46
ForgeAusI'd suggest going for compiz (you don't even need that with kde4 if you want that instead because kwin has good effects)15:47
ForgeAusbut its a sound decision to go 3.5.x15:47
ForgeAusso what video card do you have firstly?15:47
Jucatomikademus: 1. Keyboard depends on the drivers available. 2. KDE 3.5.9 is available in Gutsy (and will be the default in Hardy). 3. WINE doesn't run all Windows apps. 4. see the !compiz factoid for compiz (Metisse is practically dead).15:47
mikademusAs for ATI drivers, perhaps this might be an a6 bug? Doday I've installed it two times from scratch. First time it hadn't installed prop ATI drivers, but failed on installing them. Second install it HAD installed them by default byt they "weren't in use"15:47
BluesKaj'Morning all15:48
ForgeAushmmm mikademus don't use a615:48
mikademusNo, I know WINE doesn't run everything. THat's part of what I want to try out. But I haven't gotten that fdar yet :(15:48
ForgeAusstick with a release15:48
Jucato!appdb | mikademus15:48
mikademusI guess. But then no 2.6.2415:48
ubotumikademus: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org15:48
ForgeAusyes well WINE is good in some ways bad in others, you'd be better to use something like vmware-server instead of wine15:48
ForgeAusmikademus I'd suggest using the repo's ATI drivers instead of ATI's own ones15:49
jamadagni_hello can anyone help with my skim problem?15:49
mikademusAye, virtualisation, but then I'm still not free from Windows. Of course I am not naive enough to think that Wine will run everything, I just hope I can move enough of my environment over that I'll have less and less reason to boot into XP15:49
ForgeAusit takes a few steps to install them... thats all15:50
ForgeAuswell just don't expect much from wine thats all15:50
ForgeAusespecially from anything that requires DirectX15:50
ForgeAus(theres non-free versions of wine like crossover office and cedega which are mostly for Microsoft Office and DirectX respectively)15:51
erolslm15:52
mikademusWell, Wine isn't my reason for coming here, crying... I haven't even gotten to that yet. As I said, 15 distros later and the only one that works stable and detects my graphic hardware flawlessly is CentOS, and they are the most conservative distro around, and will stay on 2.6.18 for at least a year (=no keyboard). I like Kubuntu, but even the 7.10 acted up alot, especiually when updating the system15:52
ForgeAusmika.. I tihnk your going to have to learn to settle for some stuff...15:53
mikademusEven with no development repos enabled, updating generally sank the system to where it didn't even boot. Which for me meant reinstall from DVD.15:53
ForgeAusI don't know much about CentOS or any rpm distros for that matter (aside from metisse under mandriva)15:53
BluesKajmikademus, picky , picky   :)15:54
ForgeAusmika, it doesn't sound like something linux should be doing (ie sinking your system)15:54
mikademusHehe, perhaps I am, I actualloy wouldn't know. I'm utterly new to the non-idealistic side of Linux15:54
ForgeAusyour not overloading your HDD or RAM are you?15:54
ForgeAuspersonally I find it odd you think its idealistic15:55
ForgeAusI come into linux expecting very little and was actually suprised pleasently by what I got15:55
zimonmikademus: CentOS is an enterprise distribution, so of course it uses older, but more stable software. if you want that from kubuntu, use dapper15:55
mikademusNope, C2D E6600 vanilla system with ATI X800 gfx. Stable and conventional config.15:55
mikademusWell, no, I don't expect enterprise stability. But the stable 7.10 Kubunto was actually less stable for me than Fedora C8, and on pair with their Core9 alpha.15:56
ForgeAusmika you have to realize your particular brand of video card (I have an ATI Radeon myself so I'm in the same boat) is not as easy to install as most under Linux15:56
mikademusForgeAus: ok, I have heard stories about poor Linux support from ATI15:57

mikademusBizMan697: envy, forgive my ignorance, that is a config utuility for the X server?15:58
ForgeAusmika I think thats one likely problem you have15:58
ForgeAusas for the rest I don't know15:58
ForgeAusthere is an aticonfig util I got from somewhere15:58
mikademusAgain, I'm sorry to come into the channel and vry like a little girl, but my frustration has really been mounting the last days...15:59
ForgeAushehe I know what frustration is like15:59
ForgeAuswe all get it15:59
ForgeAusfrom time to time16:00
mikademusAs for the aticonfig utility, that one failed with some error when running "aticonfig --initial", after installing the dirvers from ATI's support page (a complete reinstall ago)16:00
ForgeAusbut I kinda get the sense that you've been approaching this all wrong... this channel has excellent support for kubuntu16:00
ForgeAusit shouldn't take you a week... only the d/l of the .iso and some config and you should have a relatively stable system16:01
mikademusForgeAus: but you know, that really means that no matter how much I wish it, Linux isn't ready to take on the mainstream desktop competition yet... :(16:01
ForgeAus(either kde 3.5.x - with optional compiz and/or kde4)16:01
ForgeAusmikademus look when I first got into kubuntu I was shocked I got a liveCD that I could browse from before I'd even installed it to a hard drive16:02
ForgeAusI installed it and it worked16:02
ForgeAussure I broke it because I was trying to do stuff it wasn't made to do, but I learnt alot from it16:02
ForgeAusand now I'm pretty much happy with the platform...16:02
mikademusHeh, yeah, that's what I too thought. I started with Xubuntu because I thought I wanted power over flash. But I simply didn't like Xfce, so I went to Kubuntu, and liked it very much. But I had terrible difficlutes with gfx-related stability (twio separate installs, and my system was killed from installing proprietary drivers the first time, and updating the system the second)16:03
ForgeAuswell I don't blame you with the XFCE thing to me its like a gnome-lite almost16:03
mikademusAye, I understand what you mean and agree16:03
ForgeAusmika yes well expect the gfx to take some work but keep a level head and follow the faq through and it should be ok16:04
makdaknifethere are two approaches to reviewing desktop operating systems... one is to say X operating system is not ready for the mainstream desktop, and the other is to say, I'm not really able to get X operating system working the way I want to and probably need to learn more about it16:04
ForgeAusand if you have problems you can always come back here and ask :)16:04
ForgeAusanyway I hope I've eased your issues some... I wish you good luck16:05
ForgeAusmakda it mostly depends on individual experience I think16:06
mikademusThanx for that, but seriously, jost got to ask: you think my expectations are too high? I want support for my keyboard, I want a slick desktoip experience with some nice bling working on my video board. And I am technically proficient --I did manage to make my own kernel on my second day of testing Linux.16:06
ForgeAusthe ATI thing is unfortunate with many distros16:06
ForgeAusmika the slick desktop experience? hmmm I am used to WindowsXP its no slicker or less slick than Edgy/Feisty/Gutsy imho... I'm happy with either16:07
ForgeAusas for your keyboard support is it a conventional keyboard most work with standard 104 is it? drivers16:07
ForgeAusif you have a custom keyboard you may need custom software to work with it? I don't even know if software for it is available...16:08
BizMan697anyway you can change the default ports for apache (they are 80 and 443)16:09
ForgeAusas for your percieved technical proficiency I can believe you have some but remember your in the same breath saying your a linux newbie mostly... and the two are functionally incompatible to some degree...16:09
mikademusIt is a quite unconventional keyboard. It is a jap-extended 109-key board. It is detected with the 2.6.24 kernel, but mandriva had out-of-the-virtuabox-support for it, and it uses an older kernel16:09
ForgeAusso don't expect things to work right off the bat...16:09
zimonmikademus: it's not a big deal to build a 2.6.24 package for ubuntu16:10
ForgeAusum well I can't really help you with the keyboard thing...16:10
mikademusAye, I do not expect to be a linux wizard because I have a tech head, my point was rather that I'm not scared by being thrown into the tecnical side of things16:10
mikademuszimon: ok, that sounds pleasant. Was that the make-kpkg thing you told me about previsouly16:10
mikademus?16:10
zimonmikademus: yes16:11
ForgeAushehe mika I'm not scared of dropping you there if thats what you mean but actually I find things in kubuntu generally don't require that.... :)16:11
BizMan697anyway we can change the defualt ports in apache?16:11
ForgeAusthe thing that scares me the most about linux is compiling software! its still too many bits that can go wrong for me16:11
ForgeAusand I consider myself in the windows world a power user and I'm learning alot about linux for around about a year or so now16:12
ForgeAusbut I have a long way to go16:12
mikademusForgeAus: well, actually sounds quite similar to my situation, then16:12
Dr_WillisGiven all the bits ive seen go wrong with windows.. :)  Ill stick with linux.16:12
isaac_hey, when i installed the proprietary driver of nvidia geforce4 X wont start16:12
Dr_Willisbut we wont start that rant right now. :)16:12
ForgeAus(mika if all else fails you can always install AndLinux in your WindowsXP and toy with it hehe)16:13
ForgeAusisaac don't use the proprietary driver use this one16:13
ForgeAus!nvidia16:13
ubotuTo install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto16:13
mikademusForgeAus: the thing that really frustrates me is that when something is messed up (usually from what should be standard operations, like "yum update system" (on fedora), as an example, but also on *ubuntu), the system is basically fried for me and I need to rinstall16:14
ForgeAusDrWillis like what bits? sorry I'm an equal opportunity OS enthusiast :)16:14
ForgeAuswell unless that OS is an RPM based distro rofl16:14
ForgeAusmika you think theres no recovery from package conflicts?16:15
ForgeAusis that what your trying to say?16:15
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  You want to know the total disaster i had with a bluetooth dongle under windows  :) i had to  let windows strt the 'found new hardware' but let it start the dongles own setup.exe.. BUT then i had to tell the setup exe the path to the windows drivers in part..  for some parts.. and other parts had to be off the dongles cd. :)16:15
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  Of course i have other stories..but thats one thats most recent.16:15
stondcan some one tell me how to change the icon of my PSP when I plug it in the icon that it shows is a ipod but I want to change it to an icon that i downloaded and no matter what i do it will not change from that stupid ipod  icon16:15
isaac_ForgeAus: yeah i used that driver16:16
Dr_WillisIts sad that bluetooth has been so.. slow in getting adopted.16:16
ForgeAusDrWillis I have a bluetooth dongle all I did was install the driver from the CD and enable it in the control panel... simple...16:16
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  Yep. thats how it was supposed to work...16:16
ForgeAusperhaps you got an overly nasty peice of hardware?16:16
mikademusForgeAus: I don't know what I am trying to say. Guess why I'm frustrated? :p16:17
ForgeAusthe thing that confuses me most is you saying that it starts the dongles own setup.exe and the dongle itself isn't even installed yet.. thats odd...16:17
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  But windows said it was compatiable, and installed their own drivers..  which dident work.., dongles drivers.. also.. dident work. :) i had to  mixx the 2..  I ended up just using the dngle on my linux box. It works fine there.16:17
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  Lets just say i am not buying any hardware from that company any more. :016:18
ForgeAushehe sounds prudent16:18
mikademusBah, how come that atp-get returns error due to other process using it when none does?16:18
* mikademus sighs16:18
ForgeAusmika another problem is your doing this alone...16:18
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  right. the 'fix' was to use parts of MS drivers.. and the custome dongles drivers..  Now WHY the dongle even needed its own drivers is a good question.16:18
ForgeAusit helps to have some help16:18
ForgeAusyou don't have to feel so frustrated when you have someone with you who knows something about what's going on16:19
mikademusAye, and the cat I'm waiting for isn't old enough to be delivered yet. She could have helped me otherwise16:19
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  then i had the usb printer that under windows - when  i printed a test page.. powerd off the machine instantly.. How do you even Begin to trouble shoot that. :)16:19
ForgeAushehe mika you didn't at first learn windows all by yourself did you?16:19
Dr_Willisbut im heading to ZZZzzz... land..16:19
ForgeAusyou would have used it, say at school or work or with family ...16:19
mikademusForgeAus: will you be my friend? *puppy eyes* Come here and help and I'll make coffe and crumpets lol16:20
ForgeAusthats why the people here as a support base is a good thing16:20
ForgeAuswhen something goes wrong you can come running to ask questions16:20
ForgeAus(it might not turn out as bad as it looked)16:20
mikademusok, so how do I see if there is a rogue atp-get process running, and how do I massacre it?16:21
Dr_WillisLinux is well documented. :) Of course finding time to read.. can be an issue.16:21
ForgeAusanyway... I generally consider people a friend by default unless they do something significant to change that view...16:21
Dr_Willisps ax | grep apt16:21
Dr_Willisthen kill the pid if needed.16:21
mikademusthanks16:21
ForgeAusa rogue apt-get?... why would there be one of them?16:21
Jucato!aptfix16:21
ubotuIf an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »16:21
ForgeAusmika first of all your not using osmething like easyubuntu or automatix(1 or 2)  are you?16:22
Dr_Willisheh - do you answer the Q they asked.. or give them the answer they proberly really need. :)16:22
ForgeAus(they're a kinda "works for me" thing, but they've been known to royally screw with many an ubuntu system)16:23
mikademusForgeAus: no, I'm currently on the 8.04a616:23
ForgeAushehe DrWillis me?16:23
josephdoes dolphin have support for mouse gestures?16:24
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  :) welcome to #kubuntu, here is your Miss Cleo Hat of ESP.16:24
* ForgeAus shrugs joseph I would have thought so but I don't know for sure16:24
mikademusUbuto's advice worked for regaining control over atp-get16:24
* ForgeAus shrugs some more.. and puts the hat aside... 16:24
Dr_Willismikademus,  you dident have  a rogue process runnign then. :) you had one that died.16:24
ForgeAusI don't believe in ESP16:24
Jucato!thanks | mikademus16:25
ubotumikademus: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)16:25
Dr_WillisForgeAus,  do you Belive in ESPN?16:25
mikademusOh, dearest Ubuto, you will always be my Eliza!16:25

ForgeAushehe well I don't get that channel but yes I do believe there is one16:25
ForgeAusromancing the bot?16:26
Dr_Willis!love16:26
Jucatojoseph: KDE (3.5.9 at the most) has support for mouse gestures globally. that is, it's not limited to a single app. Not sure about KDE 4 though16:26
ubotuLove is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.16:26

josephJucato: mouse gestures do not seem to be native in dolphin.16:26
Dr_Willisgoing to sleep and its almost NOON.. :) gotta love 3rd shift!16:27
mikademusHmm, to follow the ATI install guide I need to install dpkg-dev, which fails. Is that in a dev repo?16:27
ForgeAuswait dpkg-dev fails? what error do you get?16:27
Jucatojoseph: there is no "native in <app>" mouse gestures. KDE itself has mouse gestures. look in System Settings -> Accessibility ->Input Actions16:27
josephJucato: thank you.16:28
josephthe gestures are disabled globally16:28
josephhm16:28
mikademusThis command fails "apt-get install dpkg-dev debhelper libstdc++5 dkms", and the error is "Package dpkg-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package."16:28
ForgeAusok you might have to check your repos16:29
ForgeAusit might be a part of universe or multiverse that may not be active in your sources.list16:29
ForgeAus(the file resides as /etc/apt/sources.list  from memory)16:29
ForgeAusthere are a few ways of changing it16:30
ForgeAusone is treating it as a text file16:30
Sevis_Can anyone please help me change the screen resolution on KDE in ubuntu 7.10?16:30
ForgeAusanother is using Adept (ie sudo adept_manager, and then manage repositories in the menu)16:30

AnnirakSo, I was attempting to add myself to the 'root' and 'www-data' groups to make working with some cgi scripts a little easier.  Now, I have lost the ability to sudo.  I know that I need to reboot to recovery mode, but I don't know what to do then.16:31
ForgeAusthere should be a line deb <url here> <distro code> main restricited16:31
ForgeAusand stuff like that...16:31
josephJucato: thanks16:31
mikademusAll dev repos are eneabled by deafult, except for the backports and official partners16:32
ForgeAuswhere its got main and restricted copy a line below that and replace main and restricted with universe and multiverse (whichever of them you don't have)16:32
ForgeAusok well <distro code>-backports is another one I often add...16:32
stondSevis_ in yooour terminal type sudo apt-get install ps3-utilit then type sudo ps3video -v then make your choice16:32
ForgeAuswell then I don't know why it isn't finding your package...16:32
Sevis_thanks stond, checking now16:33
mikademusIt seems the breakage might be worse, when running adept_manager I get the error "cannot connect to X server"16:33
ForgeAusum you could I guess check http://packages.ubuntu.com16:33
ForgeAusand see what it says16:33
Sevis_stond, it can't find that package16:34
ForgeAusmikademus your definitely running kubuntu 8.04a6 ?16:34
mikademusAbsolutely. That, at least, is no doubt about.16:34
ForgeAusif its ubuntu adept wont be there, if its a live CD then I can't understand how it can't be there16:34

mikademusIndeed. Error ensues, without accompanying hilarty16:36
stondSevis_ try searching for PS3 utilities in your synaptic package manager16:36
mikademus"No protocol specified, cannot connect to X server"16:36
ForgeAuswait cannot connect to X server is not because Adept_manager is missing16:37
ForgeAusits because your X has a problem16:37
Sevis_no matching applications, stond16:37
ForgeAusyou may need to fix your /etc/x11/xorg.conf file16:37
mikademusYou know I'm runnung a clean install from just when we started this chat? :D16:37
ForgeAusalso if your in the gui (like running it from console) I should have thought of this before...16:38
ForgeAusits not sudo its kdesu (if that doesn't work kdesudo for KDE4 and some newer kubuntu's) so the line becomes kdesu[do] adept_manager16:39
stondwell then I cant help because i am running kubuntu on my PS3 and that is the package i use to change my video mode and resolution output for tvs and monitors rangeing from stanard 480i up to 1080p16:39
stdinkdesu is linked to kdesudo, so it'll still work16:39

stondi dont know what type of computer are you using16:40

nosrednaekimkalarm... or karm16:41

ForgeAusif you get the same error you probably need to fix your X11 its not adept_manager thats wrong ... (or if it is thats not all thats wrong)16:41
Sevis_I think I'll just give up and go back to gnome :)16:41
mikademusForgeAus: my x conf file seems... eh... well, what should I look for? The device says "Configured video device", seems a bit sparse to me, but I'm one wet newb16:41
Sevis_thank you for your help16:41
ForgeAusum I'm not sure I'm the one to help you with that16:42
mikademusYou think it could be the alpha?16:42
ForgeAusif you ran through the webpage I sent you earlier it should have helped you with what goes in there16:42
nosrednaekimmikademus: hey... whats wrong?16:42
ForgeAusno I don't think its the alpha16:42
stondcan some one tell me how to change the icon of my PSP when I plug it in the icon that it shows is a ipod but I want to change it to an icon that i downloaded and no matter what i do it will not change from that stupid ipod  icon16:42

crackhead_25coreymon77: i have it already. im in the program. ill see if it does anything.17:33
coreymon77BizMan697: youre on linux now, youre most likely not gonna get hacked17:34
BizMan697just making sure cause i want to create a media server, and i hate leaving low number poirts open17:34
coreymon77BizMan697: but, as a general rule, dont leave ports open unless you need to for a specific reason17:34
BizMan697for ssh i have real high numbers17:34

BizMan697my concern is if i open it on the router, its open on all pc's including windows is it not?17:35
coreymon77crackhead_25: that program might work better than kdes default17:35
coreymon77BizMan697: not if you only open it for your ip address17:35

arunkalewhat does mkdir -p do17:36
BizMan697no one, im assuming17:36
BizMan697cause i have to open the port17:36
coreymon77BizMan697: ports can only be opened for specific ips, you can set the port to be open only for your ip, meaning only your computer17:36
BizMan697then port foward it17:36
BizMan697oh ok17:36
BizMan697ur right17:36
llutzarunkale: -p : no error if existing, make parent directories as needed17:36
coreymon77BizMan697: port forwarding opens the port for you17:36

llutzBizMan697: start it17:39
BizMan697and i can do that by?17:40
llutzBizMan697: you need a service like http/ssh/telnet/ftp? so install the daemon/server, configure it to your needs, start it and be happy17:41

josephmakdaknife: so there aren't any major problems with postfix then?18:22
kaminixmakdaknife: Not entirely sure, but I think it was some problem with a conflicting KDM or something, kdm-kde4 which installed with kde4-core and had been set to active. I removed it and rebooted :)18:23
makdaknifejoseph:  probably not... its more likely that you are making use of conflicting repositories or that a package has been added to the apt repository and has dependency issues18:23

sammyintelikey: you're right, somehow. my first defined mode is 1024x768, which I get as a screen resolution, but my root window size is still being set to 1280x1024, which is the largest size defined. I thought kde's control center + RandR would change the root window size, but it isn't.20:48

sammykde, gnome, xfce, all of them are too big for their britches. too many users that don't follow up on bugs, not enough developers.20:52

intelikeysammy try blackbox/fluxbox20:53
tekteenailsa: I do not know. konq. hates flash20:53
intelikeyno bells nor whistles   but a clean gui20:54
intelikeywhen i use a gui it's blackbox anymore20:55
intelikeywhich isn't often20:55
sammyI used to run ... one of those on my AIX box at work intead of clunkycrappy CDE20:55
sammyI need the integration. After using macos where every program can share with every other program (ie, add a contact in your address book, you can assign it IM accounts which appear in your IM application etc), I can't go back20:56
coreymon77i have both a macbook and my linux box20:57
wadIn system settings, I specified firefox as my default browser, but clicking URLs in thunderbird email messages does nothing. How could I troubleshoot this problem?20:57
intelikeyheh20:57
sammyit's just that the foss world hasn't caught up. kontact+kopete does okay, I just feel sometimes like I'm the 1% of users that actually takes the time to file and follow up on bugs. it's not enough20:57
coreymon77i like macos, but linux, especially kubuntu has a special place for me20:58
intelikeyi need the control, fine tune everything,   default is only the starting point for anything on my system.20:58
eddieftwwad: try checking your thunderbird settings20:58
wadeddieftw, I did that too, actually. :-(20:58
wadI fresh out of ideas.20:59
sammyI don't subscribe to people using computers like toasters. It's like cars, you *need* to know how they work. it doesn't help anyone but the people you're paying to fix it when you don't have any idea what is broken or why it broke. that model doesn't work in the OSS world20:59
wadI didn't find any thunderbird settings that looked useful, by the way.20:59
wadAny of you folks use thunderbird? Does clicking on links send the URL to the browser?20:59
intelikeysammy yeah another problem is that some times things get fixed, and the developers of a distro *caugh ubuntu caugh* grab the older unpatched source code to make the next release out of....21:00
sammypeople who just want them to work should go use windows. if you're going to use foss software, you *have* to take the time out of what you'd rather be doing to hunt down bugs and participate in triage. intelikey: I think that's more of wanting a stable release for this 99% I'm talking about21:00
sammythe 99% of users who don't want to file bugs or even know what's wrong, they just want it to work, like their car, or a toaster.21:01
eddieftw:/21:01
sammyif they're not going to participate, they should be donating $$ to the developers, since they're using something and not giving back.21:01

draikOnce I creat an alias, where else do I need to enter it so that it "sticks"?21:04

Blah112Hey, i need some help making swap for linux. Should new swap partition be Primary or Logical? Should it's location be at End or Beginning?21:04
intelikeydraik a runtime configuration file21:04
intelikeydraik is it bash ?21:04
* sammy ammends his original statement as not to imply that people who don't triage bugs are moochers21:04
sammyI meant those that do nothing, coreymon77.21:05
draikintelikey: I typed                  alias dvdmount='sudo mount -o loop -t udf'21:05
intelikeydraik ok that's bash.    put it in ~/.bash.bashrc21:05
draikThanks21:06
Blah112Can someone help me?21:06
sammyBlah112: logical or primary doesn't have much to do with what type of partition you choose. you may have 4 primary partitions per drive, and one or more primary partitions can hold 'logical' partitions. it's the way someone got around only being able to have 4 partitions on a drive.21:07
draikintelikey: Done. Thank you much.21:07
Blah112k21:07
intelikeydraik may i sujest that rather than an alias you might want to make a shell script of that command and put it in /usr/local/bin   then you can also use the gui to execute it   (an alias is not normally accessable to gui alt+f2 type things)21:07
sammyBlah112: the location of the partition isn't necessarily important, either. it's just giving you a choice as to what free space you'd like to use on your drive.21:08
intelikeyjust a thought.21:08
draikintelikey: Great suggestion. How do I put the command into shell script?21:08
Blah112Alright. Thanks.21:09
tekteendraik: create a text file21:09
intelikeydraik sudo nano /usr/local/bin/dvdmount     type in the command and save/exit    then  sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/dvdmount    and you're done.21:09
draikintelikey: I use Yakuake when I enter             dvdmount [filename.iso] /mnt21:09
intelikeycommand would look something like this    sudo mount -o loop -t udf "$@"21:10
draikWhat is    "$@"  ?21:11
intelikeyany command line arguments21:11
draikOk21:11
intelikeywell all command line args actually21:11
draikI thought it was something specific21:11
draikI'm aware of $PATH and such21:12
draikDidn't know if "$@" was specific to something.21:12
tekteenit is21:12
tekteenall command line args21:12
intelikey$1 is the first one $2 the second  $* is all but doesn't preserve spaces in args and "$@" is all and does pereserve spaces21:12
intelikeywhen writing any shell script you wish to pass arguments to  you use one of those ^   and commonly "$@"21:13
draikOk21:14
intelikey$[1-9 positional arg 1 - 9      $0 is the name of the script as it's called on the command line.21:14
draikSo the text file is only a line that states...                                sudo mount -o loop -t udf "$@"21:15

nixternalthere are so many X libraries that it isn't even funny22:07
nixternalwhat I typically do is find out what is in the header files, if c++ what is in the #includes, and then use apt-file to search for the file name, it will typically list the package the files belongs too22:08

farruinn_If I want to compile a program that depends on KDE libraries, do I want kde4base-dev or kdebase-dev? The version for kdebase-dev is shown as "4:3.5.8-0ubuntu2.2". Does that mean KDE 4?22:49
aleksanteridepends on does the program use kde3 or kde422:49
nosrednaekimfarruinn_: if its a kde4 program you want kde4base-dev22:49
farruinn_nosrednaekim: thanks22:50
sandro__<nosrednaekim> so what shhould i do?22:50

sandro__it is in here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58807/22:53
mikdemusHmm, compiling (should I say Kompiling to keep with the theme?) KDE themes seems a hassle. Even though all libraries are there kompilation fails. Is there a precompiled theme binary package for Kubuntu?22:53
mikdemussorry, preKompiled22:54
nosrednaekimmikdemus: depends on the theme... which theme is it?22:55
mikdemusdomino22:55
nosrednaekimmikdemus: indeed there are :)22:55
mikdemusseems to be a common base for other themes too22:55
mikdemusyay22:55
nosrednaekimwell if its a "base" then you will rpobably need to compile anyway22:55

X9nLinux1Hi everyone.  I did a reinstall of Dapper on an old iMac yesterday.  All is well.  The HD is a 20G that was partitioned by the installer automagically.  Entire drive was used for this install.  Can I 'redo' the install without wiping it out so that the HD is repartitioned to two 10G sections?23:57
X9nLinux1BTW, the plan is to put OSX on the other partition.23:57
X9nLinux1... or do I need to just start over?23:59
