| Wolven_UK | umm.1 more question..are KDE's settings stored on the /home partition or root? if its stored in /home i'll just reinstall my system..i just dont wanna loose all my settings again.. | 00:06 |
| NickPresta | Wolven_UK, a lot of settings and such are stored in ~/.kde/. You may consider backing up that whole folder. | 00:06 |
| cuznt | didnt you make it so it would auto convert his text to english? | 00:06 |
| NickPresta | cuznt, nope. He apparently knew enough English to say he was from China and how to say goodbye. | 00:07 |

| oloughlin75 | karllenz: yep | 01:44 |
| karllenz | thanx | 01:44 |
| karllenz | ill try that | 01:44 |
| willis__ | i normally 'sudo apt-get install samba' then i give the users samba passwords with 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' | 01:44 |
| Tann | will anyone be able to help my with my issue? | 01:45 |
| willis__ | then i manually edit the smb.conf file to enable the home shares. | 01:45 |

| willis__ | I want to share the whole 'homes' directory for all my users. :) | 01:45 |

| jawee | oloughlin75: minor typo ;) | 01:46 |
| oloughlin75 | jawee: Just one letter :) | 01:46 |
| karllenz | the sudo apt-get install samba said the newest version is already installed | 01:46 |
| willis__ | i also enable several public shares, and other things | 01:46 |
| willis__ | Now ya know why i manually edit the smb.conf, and dont rely on that kde samba config tool stuff.. :) | 01:46 |

| Tann | KMix is recogonizing my card and all, but there is no sound from any software | 01:51 |

| oloughlin75 | is* | 01:51 |

| cmlalex | any bttv gurus here? | 02:00 |
| wswindell | sex | 02:01 |
| wswindell | sorry, i was wondering about a package called sxs. | 02:01 |
| david_ | does anyone know how to find the (hdx,y) id for partitions in grub menu? | 02:05 |
| nosrednaekim | !info sxs | 02:07 |
| ubotu | Package sxs does not exist in gutsy | 02:07 |
| nosrednaekim | david_: 0 would be the equivalend of "hda" and hd0,0 would be the equivalent of hda1 | 02:08 |
| nosrednaekim | s/0/hd0 | 02:08 |
| david_ | so I have windows xp on /dev/sda1 in grub it is (hd0,0) and kubuntu is /dev/sda3 in grub it is (hd0,2) | 02:10 |
| nosrednaekim | david_: that is correct (if you don't have any pata hard drives in your computer) | 02:12 |
| david_ | ok that makes sense. | 02:13 |
| david_ | my follow up question is I just installed vista on an Extended Partition and it is /dev/sda4. But the os is on /dev/sda5 | 02:14 |
| david_ | How would I put it in Grub? | 02:14 |
| nosrednaekim | grub understands extended partitions | 02:15 |
| nosrednaekim | it would be hd0,4 | 02:15 |
| david_ | thanks a bunch | 02:15 |
| david_ | will try | 02:15 |
| stond | can somone tell me why when i type sudo konqueror in terminal i wont let me and say that the uid is 1000 and needs to be 0 | 02:17 |
| nosrednaekim | !kdesudo | 02:24 |
| ubotu | In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 02:24 |

| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: i've heard good things about it... they use rolling release. | 02:28 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: none that I can tell. it's based on Debian Sid (Unstable) | 02:29 |
| nosrednaekim | BluesKaj: its a bit more like raw debian though | 02:29 |
| Jucato | but it uses KDE so that's +1 for it :) | 02:29 |

| jawee | download that, double click to open the installer | 02:50 |
| jawee | Jucato: oh. Well I did that when I first got Gusty... | 02:50 |
| Jucato | he just needs to update his system to get the update | 02:50 |

| Jucato | BluesKaj: exactly | 03:56 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: because it's a removable media, not a static file, so the normal icon change doesn't happen | 03:57 |

| Jucato | wel Ctrl+Esc starts ksysguard | 04:01 |
| prince_jammys | fluxbox --replace is no good? | 04:01 |
| Jucato | (at least the process table part) | 04:01 |
| Jucato | prince_jammys: nope | 04:01 |
| ForgeAus | (in andLinux control escape still brings up windows start menu) | 04:01 |
| Jucato | andLinux? | 04:01 |
| stond | Jucato ok now what | 04:01 |
| ForgeAus | yeah | 04:01 |
| ForgeAus | its a kernel emulator for windows :) | 04:01 |
| ForgeAus | very nice imho | 04:01 |
| Jucato | stond: you clicked on the wrench icon? a new window/dialog box should appear | 04:02 |
| ForgeAus | basically embeds kubuntu in windows | 04:02 |
| Jucato | stond: you'll see the icon for the ipod at the left and "Filename Patterns" at the right. ( just making sure we're on the same page) | 04:02 |
| ForgeAus | (though the desktop is shared) | 04:02 |
| ForgeAus | (because Xming has a "rootless" mode | 04:03 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: er... :/ | 04:03 |
| stond | Jucato yes I clicked the little wrench in the little bow | 04:03 |
| ForgeAus | at least I think thats what it calls it | 04:03 |
| Jucato | stond: ok, in that new window that popped up, click on the ipod icon to change it, once you changed it. click Apply then OK | 04:03 |
| Jucato | that should work now | 04:03 |
| ForgeAus | basicaly means that the x-desktop is "transparent" and it uses Windows' decorators :) | 04:03 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: yeah. the "er..." is for running Linux embedded in Windows :P | 04:04 |
| ForgeAus | I can show you a screenshot, its nice | 04:04 |
| ForgeAus | but I have to email u I don't htink I can dcc | 04:04 |
| ForgeAus | either that or if you know how I can paste it to a temp website | 04:04 |
| Jucato | I saw the website :) | 04:05 |
| stond | Jucato ok the picture was the same as the icon for my usb sd cardreader | 04:05 |
| ForgeAus | oh ok :) | 04:05 |
| ForgeAus | but you didn't see my prettier transparent window borders one :) | 04:05 |
| Jucato | heh | 04:05 |
| Jucato | stond: so it didn't work? | 04:05 |
| stond | i dont know just a sec | 04:06 |
| stond | Jucato ok it changed my usb sd cardreader icon but not the ipod icon which is my psp | 04:07 |
| ForgeAus | hehe Jucato if anyone joins here with the nick cobuntu they're probably using andLinux (its the default nickname)... | 04:07 |
| Jucato | ow... | 04:07 |
| Jucato | ah coLinux... | 04:08 |
| Jucato | sheesh.. | 04:08 |
| ForgeAus | yes colinux is what AndLinux is based on | 04:08 |
| Jucato | stond: hm.. strange... sorry I have no PSP/iPod to really test it with. only have USB flashdrives | 04:08 |
| ForgeAus | (that + xming + pulseaudio (was esd) and a few other minor things) | 04:08 |
| Jucato | as far as my usb drive is concerned, it works | 04:08 |
| Jucato | interesting... or not :P | 04:09 |
| stond | Jucato well thinks for your help | 04:09 |
| ForgeAus | hmm | 04:12 |
| ForgeAus | I dunno the su pass :( It doesn't have one in the main console but I didn't use & to run stuff | 04:12 |
| ForgeAus | so I'm a little messed up there | 04:12 |
| ForgeAus | at least I got sudo now :) | 04:13 |
| ForgeAus | hehe something I couldn't get for my interix subsystem | 04:13 |
| Jucato | they have a forum. you can ask there :P | 04:14 |
| ForgeAus | Andlinux does yeah | 04:14 |
| ForgeAus | its also got a channel #andLinux but theres hardly anyone there | 04:14 |
| * Jucato didn't know colinux was actually still alive | 04:14 | |
| ForgeAus | hehe apparently so | 04:14 |
| Jucato | anyway, lunch time. | 04:15 |
| Jucato | stond: try asking in #kde some time about your problem. I vaguely recall some people asking about that in the past | 04:15 |

| cheeby | hi. running heron. what package do I need to get vim syntax hilighing? I did an apt-get install gvim and though all the dependencies would be statisfied. | 04:27 |
| Apple_Cat | what language do you want syntax highlighting for ? | 04:29 |
| cheeby | php | 04:29 |

| cheeby | Apple_Cat: not sure. checking. just wondering what the command would be to install them. | 04:34 |
| Apple_Cat | http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=790 | 04:34 |
| Apple_Cat | in vim, :cal SetSyn("perl") will turn it on, replace perl for whichever other language you want | 04:36 |
| Apple_Cat | although it should autodetect and enable as soon as you save the file, ie. saving a file as foo.py will turn python syntax highlighting on | 04:38 |
| Apple_Cat | if you have automatic syntax highlighting on in your vimrc | 04:38 |
| cheeby | yeah. I'll check that. | 04:39 |

| sjck | no, its for videos streams not for videos on my hdd | 07:10 |
| crackhead_25 | where are you trying to stream anything from a .divx format? | 07:10 |
| crackhead_25 | usually it's displayed in flash | 07:10 |
| crackhead_25 | if it's reading divx, then just save as -- and watch it local | 07:11 |
| sjck | Ive no TV, want to watch series while eating.. | 07:11 |
| nanothief | if you save the divx, you don't have to wait until it finishes downloading before you start watching it | 07:11 |
| crackhead_25 | sjck, you're watching live tv through a cable card, you mean? | 07:11 |
| sjck | how can I save it? | 07:12 |
| sjck | no, some unserious sites which I dont want to type in here (: | 07:12 |
| nanothief | sjck: ... | 07:12 |
| nanothief | ;D | 07:13 |
| crackhead_25 | sjck: you can say it. it's ok. porn! | 07:14 |
| crackhead_25 | lol | 07:14 |
| sjck | eating without watching my favorite series is boring. :( | 07:14 |
| nanothief | sjck: well the download method is different for each site, a firefox extension called unplug can often do it | 07:17 |
| sjck | ah, Ive heared of that plugin.. it can download youtube vids too if I remember correctly | 07:19 |
| nanothief | thats right | 07:19 |
| sjck | alright nanothief thanks for the hint | 07:20 |

| sjck | another 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 autorun | 07:22 |
| asobi | system settings -> service manager -> startup services | 07:24 |
| sjck | asobi dont see what should I uncheck there.. | 07:27 |
| asobi | whatever you don't want to autorun? | 07:28 |
| sjck | there are no apps or something | 07:29 |
| sjck | only services which sound kinda usefull | 07:29 |
| Jucato | service manager is for services/daemons. not apps | 07:29 |
| prince_jammys | sjck: what you want is session manager-> and make it so it doesnt remember your session | 07:29 |
| asobi | or try session manager and select brand new session | 07:29 |
| sjck | ah | 07:29 |
| Jucato | or you can set it to restore a manually saved session | 07:30 |
| asobi | what jammy said | 07:30 |
| Jucato | (so you can manually save what apps you want to be started and never save a session automatically) | 07:30 |
| sjck | thanks! | 07:30 |

| _eMaX_ | hi all | 07:39 |
| _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 |

| ActionParsnip | what is ldconfig deferred processing? | 10:12 |
| ForgeAus | um I'll see if I can find out | 10:12 |
| ForgeAus | well ldconfig says its configures dynamic linker run-time bindings | 10:13 |
| ForgeAus | means it keeps the .dll's (or .so's) up-to-date | 10:14 |
| ForgeAus | I don't know why someone would want to defer it but perhaps its faster that way? | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | makes sense, I've just seen it o much and finally got curious | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | cheers ForgeAus :D | 10:15 |
| ForgeAus | heeh all it took was a man ldconfig | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | haha nice one :) | 10:18 |
| seb_ | hello | 10:20 |
| seb_ | i need help ! | 10:20 |
| seb_ | i tried to install the latest Nvidia driver | 10:21 |
| seb_ | ( i just installed gusty gibbon ) | 10:21 |
| seb_ | i launched the nvidia installer ( from nvidia.com ) | 10:21 |
| SlimeyPete | don't. | 10:21 |
| SlimeyPete | !nvidia | 10:21 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 10:21 |
| seb_ | lol | 10:21 |
| seb_ | ok | 10:21 |
| SlimeyPete | there is a "proper" ubuntu/kubuntu way to do it | 10:21 |
| SlimeyPete | which works better for most people | 10:22 |
| seb_ | everythings works fines until i reboot | 10:22 |
| seb_ | problem with kernel source or womething | 10:22 |
| seb_ | i alredy have this problem few years ago | 10:22 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah, I think it's a common problem. You shouldn't have any trouble if you follow the link above. | 10:22 |
| seb_ | i solved it putting a symbolic link somewhere | 10:22 |
| seb_ | but i didn't remember | 10:23 |
| seb_ | ok i'll try this | 10:23 |
| seb_ | erm | 10:24 |
| seb_ | i m using Kde | 10:25 |
| seb_ | is it the same way ? | 10:25 |
| SlimeyPete | yes, but the Restricted Drivers Manager is in the KDE system menu | 10:25 |
| seb_ | ok :) | 10:25 |
| seb_ | thx ^ | 10:25 |
| seb_ | ^ | 10:25 |
| SlimeyPete | if you click on "System Settings" in the K menu and then click "Advanced" you should see it. | 10:26 |
| seb_ | yeah | 10:26 |
| seb_ | i m in it | 10:26 |
| seb_ | but i says my system doesn't need any driver | 10:26 |
| seb_ | :| | 10:26 |
| SlimeyPete | Ah. That might be because you've already sort-of installed it. | 10:27 |
| seb_ | damn | 10:27 |

| PolitikerNEU | hello everyone - does anybody know how to load the "proprietary" intel wlan driver in hardy? Because it isn't loaded by default | 12:01 |
| ForgeAus | how do I empty cache .deb's once I'm done with installing them?? | 12:03 |
| ForgeAus | (and partial ones) | 12:03 |
| Jucato | apt-get clean | 12:03 |
| ForgeAus | they're taking up too much space | 12:03 |
| ForgeAus | thanx Jucato I think I tried that with kpackage but it didn't do it for some reason | 12:04 |
| ForgeAus | at least it didn't seem to do anything and when I checked the cache they were still there | 12:04 |
| Jucato | I'm not familiar with kpackage's UI anymore. but did the command work? | 12:05 |
| ForgeAus | can't tell you yet too busy running an installer | 12:05 |
| ForgeAus | but once its don'e I'll try it | 12:05 |
| ForgeAus | I like kpackage alot :) | 12:06 |
| PolitikerNEU | But kpackage hasn't automatic dependency resolving, right? | 12:06 |
| ForgeAus | its 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 | *got | 12:07 |
| ForgeAus | um it has some dependancy stuff but I don't think its as good as adepts | 12:07 |
| Jucato | PolitikerNEU: it has | 12:07 |
| Jucato | dependency resolving doesn't depend on the GUI but on the backend. both use APT | 12:08 |
| ForgeAus | both told me that installing Konqueror = broken packages tho | 12:08 |
| PolitikerNEU | ah, ok | 12:08 |
| ForgeAus | (one of the dependancies filled in what it needed to install it) | 12:08 |
| ForgeAus | I don't know why it removed konqui in the first place :( | 12:08 |
| ForgeAus | but anyway I got it back now so happy about that :) | 12:08 |
| adnan | hi | 12:08 |
| ForgeAus | and its 3.5.8 now | 12:08 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: perhaps what you used before was autoclean and not clean. | 12:08 |
| ForgeAus | ahh Jucato with autoclean on does clean not work? | 12:08 |
| ForgeAus | coz thats probably what I did | 12:09 |
| Jucato | not 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 |
| ForgeAus | wow this has lots to go to install stuff, I didn't think it was going to be so slow | 12:10 |
| Jucato | man apt-get | 12:10 |
| ForgeAus | yeah I knew there was clean and autoclean and I did set autoclean on it sounded prudent | 12:10 |
| eddieftw | hey there adnan | 12:11 |
| spiroo | Does anybody know when Summe of Code will end? | 12:16 |
| spiroo | Google - Summer of Code | 12:17 |
| ActionParsnip | hey all | 12:20 |
| Jucato | spiroo: http://code.google.com/soc/2008/faqs.html#0.1_timeline | 12:21 |
| eddieftw | hi ActionParsnip | 12:23 |
| ForgeAus | I wonder what it would take to contrib an AndLinux metapackage | 12:23 |
| ActionParsnip | hi eddieftw | 12:23 |
| ForgeAus | its not a full ubuntu backend | 12:24 |
| ForgeAus | in fact I can't even find kwin in the process list | 12:24 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: best place to ask is in their channel/forums :P | 12:25 |
| ForgeAus | apparently it takes too long to get registered for their forums | 12:25 |
| Jucato | although the "not a full ubuntu backend" and "can't find kwin in the process list" is kinda unrelated | 12:26 |
| ForgeAus | well kubuntu's backend is ubuntu too right? | 12:26 |
| ForgeAus | (at least the non-gnome bits) | 12:26 |
| JohnFlux | ForgeAus: are you running gnome or kde? | 12:26 |
| Jucato | so to speak | 12:26 |
| ForgeAus | John kde | 12:27 |
| JohnFlux | ForgeAus: are you using compiz? | 12:27 |
| ForgeAus | no | 12:27 |
| Jucato | JohnFlux: he was referring to http://www.andlinux.org/ | 12:27 |
| JohnFlux | Jucato: ah okay | 12:27 |
| ForgeAus | I don't think compiz will work with this | 12:27 |
| Jucato | I don't think that really qualifies are "running KDE or GNOME" strictly :) | 12:27 |
| ForgeAus | or at least I wouldn't expect it to | 12:27 |
| Jucato | you can't expect kwin running on windows either :) | 12:27 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato the installer I got had a kmenu for my windows system tray | 12:27 |
| Jucato | hence "strictly" | 12:28 |
| ForgeAus | hehe I had it working in the nested X-server with Xephyr | 12:28 |
| ForgeAus | kwin and all | 12:28 |
| ForgeAus | a full KDE desktop | 12:28 |
| Jucato | that's different. you're still running KWin in X | 12:28 |
| ForgeAus | yes | 12:28 |
| Jucato | I'm talking about your situation with andLinux | 12:28 |
| ForgeAus | wait whats different about it? | 12:28 |
| ForgeAus | running kwin on X and running kwin nested in X ? | 12:28 |
| Jucato | andLinux uses Xming. I don't know if that reuses an X window manager or uses Windows' | 12:29 |
| ForgeAus | neither, x-ming is the x-server not the wm | 12:30 |
| Jucato | I know. | 12:30 |
| ForgeAus | but 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 |
| ForgeAus | also Xephyr :n & export DISPLAY=:n ; startkde worked but it shared the same DISPLAY variable, I needed a separate one | 12:32 |
| ForgeAus | ie a session specific one | 12:32 |
| Jucato | I have to admit that andLinux is an alien beast and I don't know the inner workings of it. | 12:33 |
| ForgeAus | hehe Jucato I don't expect you to | 12:33 |
| Jucato | but anyway, your two statements earlier still dont add up :P | 12:33 |
| ForgeAus | you know how little about Linux I know :) | 12:33 |
| ForgeAus | which 2? | 12:33 |
| Jucato | <Jucato> although the "not a full ubuntu backend" and "can't find kwin in the process list" is kinda unrelated | 12:33 |
| ForgeAus | oh the ubuntu backend thing | 12:33 |
| ForgeAus | ok well then not a full Kubuntu backend is that happier? | 12:34 |
| ForgeAus | most of KDE is there (even Kwin is installed, it just doesn't seem to be executed in the default environment) | 12:34 |
| Jucato | maybe | 12:35 |
| ForgeAus | but when I killed it for the Xephyr one it caused problems (and wouldn't let me run fkuxbox instead) | 12:35 |
| ForgeAus | but I didn't get to see the errors on the xterm because I had a window infront of it | 12:35 |
| ForgeAus | ended up crashing even windows itself lol | 12:35 |
| ForgeAus | well lotsa apps I had running in windows anyway | 12:36 |
| ForgeAus | (so I reset) | 12:36 |
| spiroo | Jucato: thanks | 12:52 |
| ForgeAus | Jucato the command to clean worked :) | 12:52 |
| ForgeAus | (ie apt-get clean ) | 12:52 |
| Jucato | :) | 12:52 |
| ForgeAus | I almost forgot to get back to it :) | 12:52 |
| Jucato | heh no problem. if it didn't work I'd be perplexed :P | 12:53 |
| ForgeAus | I think kpacage might have precluded sending the command because I'd set it to use autoclean | 12:53 |
| ForgeAus | (ie it probably didn't think it needed to manually clean) | 12:54 |
| spiroo | I 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 |

| dthacker | spiroo: Is that the MS-Office communicator format? | 12:57 |

| ForgeAus | I know I need to start a new development project... a pkgunity tool :) | 13:44 |
| ForgeAus | something 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 harmoniously | 13:45 |

| hydrogen | storbeck: err, that response you gave about 3d desktop is pretty wrong | 14:05 |
| storbeck | hydrogen, How so? | 14:05 |
| ibou_ | dhq: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58727/ | 14:05 |
| dhq | ibou_: so thoses are all your networks | 14:05 |
| dhq | you can connect manually to them | 14:06 |
| hydrogen | storbeck: 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 desktop | 14:06 |
| storbeck | compiz != compiz-fusion. beryl != compiz-fusion | 14:06 |
| storbeck | compiz-fusion = compiz-fusion | 14:07 |
| hydrogen | err | 14:07 |
| hydrogen | let me give youa little history | 14:07 |
| ibou_ | dhq: yes but when i connect manually i noticed that after i can't get back the automatic way with knetworkmanager | 14:07 |
| storbeck | I know the history. | 14:07 |
| hydrogen | In the beginning there was compiz, and all was good | 14:07 |
| Jucato | storbeck: compiz fusion and beryl re-merged and was renamed compiz-fusion | 14:07 |
| hydrogen | then beryl forked because they wrote really bad patches and the compiz maintainer didn't accept them | 14:07 |
| hydrogen | then there was lots of flaming | 14:07 |
| hydrogen | then they merged again | 14:07 |
| dhq | ibou_: well you could use konsole to connect to the network | 14:07 |
| storbeck | hydrogen, Is it still possible to install beryl? | 14:08 |
| hydrogen | as such, recommending compiz _or_ beryl _or_ compiz-fusion is silly | 14:08 |
| ibou_ | dhq: ok i'll try that | 14:08 |
| hydrogen | storbeck: maybe on older versions of *buntu/unupdated machines | 14:08 |

| hydrogen | storbeck: because that'd be like me recommending someone install kde2.0 or kde3.5 | 14:08 |
| storbeck | Maybe somebody wants Beryl and not Compiz. He was asking about different ones, not which one is the best. | 14:08 |
| daiana | #kubuntu-es | 14:08 |
| Jucato | it's like saying "is it still possible to install kde 3.5.0". sure. | 14:09 |

| murph | My friend installed kubuntu, but I've never used it. What's the easiest way for him to get / install / enable sshd so i can log in remotely? :) | 14:26 |
| heath | I ma trying to purge and reinstall alsa... apt wants to remove ubuntu-minimal... is that safe?? | 14:27 |
| heath | murph: apt-get install openssh-server | 14:27 |
| murph | heath, thanks :) is there a command to then start sshd? | 14:28 |
| heath | murph: it will do it all for you | 14:28 |
| murph | score. | 14:29 |
| heath | just open and point the port from your router | 14:29 |
| heath | Can anyone help with my alsa problem?? | 14:30 |
| BizMan697 | anyone know anything about sshfs? i have a question | 14:32 |
| heath | BizMan697: I use it | 14:32 |
| BizMan697 | heath, i know u can mount shares so that any computers on your network can use it | 14:33 |
| BizMan697 | but is there a way that if im at work, i can view a mounted folder a thome | 14:33 |
| heath | BizMan697: yeah... you need to open the port on your router and point it to what ever pc has sshd running | 14:34 |
| BizMan697 | i would like to be able to acces my movies and music and view them elsewhere | 14:34 |
| BizMan697 | on a non LINUX machine | 14:34 |
| heath | BizMan697: the port for ssh is 22 | 14:34 |
| heath | BizMan697: you are trying to mount sshfs from a windows machine? | 14:34 |
| BizMan697 | im would want to access a sshfs mount on my linux machine a thome | 14:35 |
| BizMan697 | from a windows machine at work, to watch movies, listen to music etc | 14:35 |
| BizMan697 | i already can securelly ssh into it, vnc through ssh, and even transfer files | 14:35 |
| BizMan697 | but i would like to just open it from this end, and stream it so to speak | 14:35 |
| heath | BizMan697: I'm not sure if wondows has sshfs support | 14:35 |
| murph | mmkay, on running apt-get install my friend gets "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." - any ideas? | 14:35 |
| heath | BizMan697: what you would need is a VPN | 14:36 |
| BizMan697 | :( | 14:36 |
| stdin | muibe: get them to run the command it says, with sudo | 14:36 |
| BizMan697 | what can i do iwth a vpn, tha ti cant on ssh | 14:36 |
| heath | BizMan697: then on the linux box set up samba | 14:36 |
| BizMan697 | its setup already | 14:36 |
| ForgeAus | is there a libapt-pkg-libc6.4-6-3.53 for kubuntu gutsy? | 14:37 |
| * Jucato points ForgeAus to http://packages.ubuntu.com :) | 14:38 | |
| BizMan697 | heath, what else would i need to do | 14:38 |
| heath | BizMan697: one sec... | 14:38 |
| ForgeAus | the cnr client needs it | 14:38 |
| stdin | you need to forward ports 139 and 445 (TCP), but make sure you have some security on | 14:39 |
| Jucato | ForgeAus: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libapt-pkg-lib&mode=filename&suite=gutsy&arch=any | 14:39 |
| ForgeAus | ahh I'm going to have to check if apt and/or aptitude is up to date I think | 14:41 |
| ForgeAus | thats prolly why | 14:41 |
| heath | BizMan697: A vpn gets you in to your network... then you can run anything you want from there | 14:42 |
| BizMan697 | ok, where do u recommend i start | 14:44 |
| heath | Do you know if your router at home provides VPN? | 14:44 |
| BizMan697 | yes, i believe it does | 14:45 |
| heath | BizMan697: Then you should be able to setup some PPTP connections to the router from the Web interface... i | 14:46 |
| makdaknife | <BizMan697> try ssh tunneling: http://www.ssh.com/support/documentation/online/ssh/winhelp/32/Tunneling_Explained.html | 14:47 |
| BizMan697 | i am already setup for ssh | 14:48 |
| makdaknife | yes... that's why I suggested tunneling... it allows you to tunnel protocols through ssh without having to go through the hassle of setting up a VPN | 14:49 |
| BizMan697 | yeah but how can i watch movies from my work/home through ssh? | 14:50 |
| === max__ is now known as xlinx | ||
| BizMan697 | and on windows, from my linux box | 14:51 |
| heath | BizMan697: both will work, but if your router allows you to make users then It's very simple | 14:51 |
| BizMan697 | ok well since i have ssh setup arleady, can u gudie me in watching movies from work (windows), from my home machine (ubuntu) | 14:52 |
| BizMan697 | heath or mackdaknife any suggestions? | 14:56 |
| makdaknife | from what you're trying to achieve, it may make sense just to set up a webdav repository on your linux box and then access that over https | 14:58 |
| makdaknife | windows works well with webdav. as does linux | 14:58 |
| heath | unless you have vista | 14:59 |
| heath | BizMan697: what files are you trying to stream?? | 14:59 |
| makdaknife | hah... if you have vista... don't try to achieve anything! | 15:00 |
| heath | lol... the truth | 15:00 |

| heath | zimon: what up | 15:04 |
| heath | zimon: i need to purge alsa and apt wants to remove ubuntu-minimal... is that safe? | 15:05 |
| zimon | heath: fine, thanks .. why do you need to purge alsa? | 15:05 |
| heath | zimon: I recompiled the kernel and added the Intel HD support that I needed now I need alsa to see it | 15:06 |
| zimon | heath: i don't understand .. is the module loaded? | 15:07 |
| heath | zimon: I think so... but on a forum I found someone with the same computer and they had to purge alsa and reinstall for it to work | 15:09 |
| zimon | heath: reinstall from source? | 15:09 |
| heath | zimon: no... just purge then apt-get install | 15:10 |
| heath | BizMan697: did you check out jinzora?? | 15:10 |
| zimon | heath: then dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base and alsa-utils should do the same | 15:11 |
| heath | zimon: cool... I give that a shot | 15:11 |
| heath | zimon: you are the man | 15:12 |
| heath | zimon: now how do I get kmix to see it... alsamixer see it fine | 15:13 |
| zimon | heath: maybe you just need to restart kmix or kde .. i don't know | 15:15 |
| zimon | heath: or dpkg-reconfigure kmix .. | 15:16 |

| mikademus | I'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 fanboi | 15:39 |
| jamadagni_ | hoi mikademus what's the problem | 15:40 |
| jamadagni_ | @mikademus: if you state the prob clearly you can get solutions | 15:40 |
| mikademus | I 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 ways | 15:40 |
| ForgeAus | mikademus, perhaps you went the wrong way about it if it took you a week? | 15:41 |
| ForgeAus | mika, first of all whats your definition of stable? | 15:41 |
| mikademus | Booting. Not conflicting at every single thing I try to do. | 15:41 |
| ForgeAus | secondly something like feisty or gutsy would be more likely stable than an alpha of 8.04 | 15:42 |
| jamadagni_ | yeah @mikademus; don't try alphas | 15:42 |
| jamadagni_ | gutsy is very stable | 15:42 |
| ForgeAus | thirdly what kinda ways do you break it? | 15:42 |
| jamadagni_ | @day: can you help me with skim | 15:42 |
| mikademus | I'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 |
| ForgeAus | mika you odn' tneed enthusiasm | 15:42 |
| jamadagni_ | @mikademus: ok but don't use alphas just because you are a techie | 15:43 |
| jamadagni_ | have you really tried gutsy | 15:43 |
| mikademus | Well, the firtst distro I tried was 7.10. It especially was prone to errors when trying proprietary drivers. | 15:43 |
| ForgeAus | also note solutions aren't always easy | 15:43 |
| ForgeAus | yes well proprietary drivers can be problematic | 15:43 |
| ForgeAus | thats not 7.10's fault | 15:43 |
| ForgeAus | of course you can use the opensource drivers | 15:43 |
| ForgeAus | !ati | 15:44 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 15:44 |
| ForgeAus | that should work | 15:44 |
| day | Sistema>Prefrencia>Sesiones | 15:44 |
| ForgeAus | ok what else? | 15:44 |
| mikademus | Basically, 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 |
| ForgeAus | um mikademus I'm detecting an issue here | 15:45 |
| mikademus | please tell me | 15:46 |
| ForgeAus | you want a current 3.5.8/9?... and you want compiz and you want this and you want that? | 15:46 |
| mikademus | I just listed my wishes | 15:46 |
| mikademus | I'm a newb in LInux, though a long time supporter | 15:46 |
| ForgeAus | well first of all I tried metisse and it really slowed down my system it was nice fx tho (built into mandriva) | 15:46 |
| ForgeAus | I'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 |
| ForgeAus | but its a sound decision to go 3.5.x | 15:47 |
| ForgeAus | so what video card do you have firstly? | 15:47 |
| Jucato | mikademus: 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 |
| mikademus | As 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 all | 15:48 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm mikademus don't use a6 | 15:48 |
| mikademus | No, 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 |
| ForgeAus | stick with a release | 15:48 |
| Jucato | !appdb | mikademus | 15:48 |
| mikademus | I guess. But then no 2.6.24 | 15:48 |
| ubotu | mikademus: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org | 15:48 |
| ForgeAus | yes well WINE is good in some ways bad in others, you'd be better to use something like vmware-server instead of wine | 15:48 |
| ForgeAus | mikademus I'd suggest using the repo's ATI drivers instead of ATI's own ones | 15:49 |
| jamadagni_ | hello can anyone help with my skim problem? | 15:49 |
| mikademus | Aye, 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 XP | 15:49 |
| ForgeAus | it takes a few steps to install them... thats all | 15:50 |
| ForgeAus | well just don't expect much from wine thats all | 15:50 |
| ForgeAus | especially from anything that requires DirectX | 15:50 |
| ForgeAus | (theres non-free versions of wine like crossover office and cedega which are mostly for Microsoft Office and DirectX respectively) | 15:51 |
| erol | slm | 15:52 |
| mikademus | Well, 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 system | 15:52 |
| ForgeAus | mika.. I tihnk your going to have to learn to settle for some stuff... | 15:53 |
| mikademus | Even 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 |
| ForgeAus | I don't know much about CentOS or any rpm distros for that matter (aside from metisse under mandriva) | 15:53 |
| BluesKaj | mikademus, picky , picky :) | 15:54 |
| ForgeAus | mika, it doesn't sound like something linux should be doing (ie sinking your system) | 15:54 |
| mikademus | Hehe, perhaps I am, I actualloy wouldn't know. I'm utterly new to the non-idealistic side of Linux | 15:54 |
| ForgeAus | your not overloading your HDD or RAM are you? | 15:54 |
| ForgeAus | personally I find it odd you think its idealistic | 15:55 |
| ForgeAus | I come into linux expecting very little and was actually suprised pleasently by what I got | 15:55 |
| zimon | mikademus: CentOS is an enterprise distribution, so of course it uses older, but more stable software. if you want that from kubuntu, use dapper | 15:55 |
| mikademus | Nope, C2D E6600 vanilla system with ATI X800 gfx. Stable and conventional config. | 15:55 |
| mikademus | Well, 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 |
| ForgeAus | mika 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 Linux | 15:56 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: ok, I have heard stories about poor Linux support from ATI | 15:57 |
| BizMan697 | try ebvy | 15:57 |
| ForgeAus | 7.10 should be fine... | 15:57 |
| BizMan697 | envy | 15:57 |
| ForgeAus | bizman you mean edgy? | 15:57 |
| BizMan697 | works great at getting the proper drivers and editing your xorg.conf file | 15:57 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: So you think that the gfx might be at the source of the instabilities? | 15:58 |
| ForgeAus | mika if you follow the url I sent you earlier you should be fine | 15:58 |
| ForgeAus | !ati | 15:58 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 15:58 |
| mikademus | BizMan697: envy, forgive my ignorance, that is a config utuility for the X server? | 15:58 |
| ForgeAus | mika I think thats one likely problem you have | 15:58 |
| ForgeAus | as for the rest I don't know | 15:58 |
| ForgeAus | there is an aticonfig util I got from somewhere | 15:58 |
| mikademus | Again, 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 |
| ForgeAus | hehe I know what frustration is like | 15:59 |
| ForgeAus | we all get it | 15:59 |
| ForgeAus | from time to time | 16:00 |
| mikademus | As 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 |
| ForgeAus | but I kinda get the sense that you've been approaching this all wrong... this channel has excellent support for kubuntu | 16:00 |
| ForgeAus | it shouldn't take you a week... only the d/l of the .iso and some config and you should have a relatively stable system | 16:01 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: 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 |
| ForgeAus | mikademus 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 drive | 16:02 |
| ForgeAus | I installed it and it worked | 16:02 |
| ForgeAus | sure I broke it because I was trying to do stuff it wasn't made to do, but I learnt alot from it | 16:02 |
| ForgeAus | and now I'm pretty much happy with the platform... | 16:02 |
| mikademus | Heh, 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 |
| ForgeAus | well I don't blame you with the XFCE thing to me its like a gnome-lite almost | 16:03 |
| mikademus | Aye, I understand what you mean and agree | 16:03 |
| ForgeAus | mika yes well expect the gfx to take some work but keep a level head and follow the faq through and it should be ok | 16:04 |
| makdaknife | there 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 it | 16:04 |
| ForgeAus | and if you have problems you can always come back here and ask :) | 16:04 |
| ForgeAus | anyway I hope I've eased your issues some... I wish you good luck | 16:05 |
| ForgeAus | makda it mostly depends on individual experience I think | 16:06 |
| mikademus | Thanx 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 |
| ForgeAus | the ATI thing is unfortunate with many distros | 16:06 |
| ForgeAus | mika 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 either | 16:07 |
| ForgeAus | as for your keyboard support is it a conventional keyboard most work with standard 104 is it? drivers | 16:07 |
| ForgeAus | if 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 |
| BizMan697 | anyway you can change the default ports for apache (they are 80 and 443) | 16:09 |
| ForgeAus | as 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 |
| mikademus | It 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 kernel | 16:09 |
| ForgeAus | so don't expect things to work right off the bat... | 16:09 |
| zimon | mikademus: it's not a big deal to build a 2.6.24 package for ubuntu | 16:10 |
| ForgeAus | um well I can't really help you with the keyboard thing... | 16:10 |
| mikademus | Aye, 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 things | 16:10 |
| mikademus | zimon: ok, that sounds pleasant. Was that the make-kpkg thing you told me about previsouly | 16:10 |
| mikademus | ? | 16:10 |
| zimon | mikademus: yes | 16:11 |
| ForgeAus | hehe 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 |
| BizMan697 | anyway we can change the defualt ports in apache? | 16:11 |
| ForgeAus | the thing that scares me the most about linux is compiling software! its still too many bits that can go wrong for me | 16:11 |
| ForgeAus | and I consider myself in the windows world a power user and I'm learning alot about linux for around about a year or so now | 16:12 |
| ForgeAus | but I have a long way to go | 16:12 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: well, actually sounds quite similar to my situation, then | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Given 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 start | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | but 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 |
| ForgeAus | isaac don't use the proprietary driver use this one | 16:13 |
| ForgeAus | !nvidia | 16:13 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 16:13 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: 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 rinstall | 16:14 |
| ForgeAus | DrWillis like what bits? sorry I'm an equal opportunity OS enthusiast :) | 16:14 |
| ForgeAus | well unless that OS is an RPM based distro rofl | 16:14 |
| ForgeAus | mika you think theres no recovery from package conflicts? | 16:15 |
| ForgeAus | is that what your trying to say? | 16:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ForgeAus, 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_Willis | ForgeAus, Of course i have other stories..but thats one thats most recent. | 16:15 |
| stond | can 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 icon | 16:15 |
| isaac_ | ForgeAus: yeah i used that driver | 16:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Its sad that bluetooth has been so.. slow in getting adopted. | 16:16 |
| ForgeAus | DrWillis 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_Willis | ForgeAus, Yep. thats how it was supposed to work... | 16:16 |
| ForgeAus | perhaps you got an overly nasty peice of hardware? | 16:16 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: I don't know what I am trying to say. Guess why I'm frustrated? :p | 16:17 |
| ForgeAus | the 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_Willis | ForgeAus, 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_Willis | ForgeAus, Lets just say i am not buying any hardware from that company any more. :0 | 16:18 |
| ForgeAus | hehe sounds prudent | 16:18 |
| mikademus | Bah, how come that atp-get returns error due to other process using it when none does? | 16:18 |
| * mikademus sighs | 16:18 | |
| ForgeAus | mika another problem is your doing this alone... | 16:18 |
| Dr_Willis | ForgeAus, 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 |
| ForgeAus | it helps to have some help | 16:18 |
| ForgeAus | you don't have to feel so frustrated when you have someone with you who knows something about what's going on | 16:19 |
| mikademus | Aye, and the cat I'm waiting for isn't old enough to be delivered yet. She could have helped me otherwise | 16:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ForgeAus, 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 |
| ForgeAus | hehe mika you didn't at first learn windows all by yourself did you? | 16:19 |
| Dr_Willis | but im heading to ZZZzzz... land.. | 16:19 |
| ForgeAus | you would have used it, say at school or work or with family ... | 16:19 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: will you be my friend? *puppy eyes* Come here and help and I'll make coffe and crumpets lol | 16:20 |
| ForgeAus | thats why the people here as a support base is a good thing | 16:20 |
| ForgeAus | when something goes wrong you can come running to ask questions | 16:20 |
| ForgeAus | (it might not turn out as bad as it looked) | 16:20 |
| mikademus | ok, so how do I see if there is a rogue atp-get process running, and how do I massacre it? | 16:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Linux is well documented. :) Of course finding time to read.. can be an issue. | 16:21 |
| ForgeAus | anyway... I generally consider people a friend by default unless they do something significant to change that view... | 16:21 |
| Dr_Willis | ps ax | grep apt | 16:21 |
| Dr_Willis | then kill the pid if needed. | 16:21 |
| mikademus | thanks | 16:21 |
| ForgeAus | a rogue apt-get?... why would there be one of them? | 16:21 |
| Jucato | !aptfix | 16:21 |
| ubotu | If 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 |
| ForgeAus | mika first of all your not using osmething like easyubuntu or automatix(1 or 2) are you? | 16:22 |
| Dr_Willis | heh - 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 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: no, I'm currently on the 8.04a6 | 16:23 |
| ForgeAus | hehe DrWillis me? | 16:23 |
| joseph | does dolphin have support for mouse gestures? | 16:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ForgeAus, :) 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 sure | 16:24 | |
| mikademus | Ubuto's advice worked for regaining control over atp-get | 16:24 |
| * ForgeAus shrugs some more.. and puts the hat aside... | 16:24 | |
| Dr_Willis | mikademus, you dident have a rogue process runnign then. :) you had one that died. | 16:24 |
| ForgeAus | I don't believe in ESP | 16:24 |
| Jucato | !thanks | mikademus | 16:25 |
| ubotu | mikademus: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 16:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ForgeAus, do you Belive in ESPN? | 16:25 |
| mikademus | Oh, dearest Ubuto, you will always be my Eliza! | 16:25 |
| Jucato | O.o | 16:25 |
| ForgeAus | hehe well I don't get that channel but yes I do believe there is one | 16:25 |
| ForgeAus | romancing the bot? | 16:26 |
| Dr_Willis | !love | 16:26 |
| Jucato | joseph: 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 though | 16:26 |
| ubotu | Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come. | 16:26 |
| * Dr_Willis runs to bed to hide from the icd-weasels. | 16:26 | |
| Dr_Willis | Night all | 16:26 |
| ForgeAus | night DrWillis | 16:26 |
| ForgeAus | sweet dreamz | 16:26 |
| Jucato | bye Dr_Willis | 16:26 |
| joseph | Jucato: mouse gestures do not seem to be native in dolphin. | 16:26 |
| Dr_Willis | going to sleep and its almost NOON.. :) gotta love 3rd shift! | 16:27 |
| mikademus | Hmm, to follow the ATI install guide I need to install dpkg-dev, which fails. Is that in a dev repo? | 16:27 |
| ForgeAus | wait dpkg-dev fails? what error do you get? | 16:27 |
| Jucato | joseph: there is no "native in <app>" mouse gestures. KDE itself has mouse gestures. look in System Settings -> Accessibility ->Input Actions | 16:27 |
| joseph | Jucato: thank you. | 16:28 |
| joseph | the gestures are disabled globally | 16:28 |
| joseph | hm | 16:28 |
| mikademus | This 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 |
| ForgeAus | ok you might have to check your repos | 16:29 |
| ForgeAus | it might be a part of universe or multiverse that may not be active in your sources.list | 16:29 |
| ForgeAus | (the file resides as /etc/apt/sources.list from memory) | 16:29 |
| ForgeAus | there are a few ways of changing it | 16:30 |
| ForgeAus | one is treating it as a text file | 16:30 |
| Sevis_ | Can anyone please help me change the screen resolution on KDE in ubuntu 7.10? | 16:30 |
| ForgeAus | another is using Adept (ie sudo adept_manager, and then manage repositories in the menu) | 16:30 |
| Jucato | joseph: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3086781.0 | 16:30 |
| Annirak | So, 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 |
| ForgeAus | there should be a line deb <url here> <distro code> main restricited | 16:31 |
| ForgeAus | and stuff like that... | 16:31 |
| joseph | Jucato: thanks | 16:31 |
| mikademus | All dev repos are eneabled by deafult, except for the backports and official partners | 16:32 |
| ForgeAus | where 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 |
| ForgeAus | ok well <distro code>-backports is another one I often add... | 16:32 |
| stond | Sevis_ in yooour terminal type sudo apt-get install ps3-utilit then type sudo ps3video -v then make your choice | 16:32 |
| ForgeAus | well then I don't know why it isn't finding your package... | 16:32 |
| Sevis_ | thanks stond, checking now | 16:33 |
| mikademus | It seems the breakage might be worse, when running adept_manager I get the error "cannot connect to X server" | 16:33 |
| ForgeAus | um you could I guess check http://packages.ubuntu.com | 16:33 |
| ForgeAus | and see what it says | 16:33 |
| Sevis_ | stond, it can't find that package | 16:34 |
| ForgeAus | mikademus your definitely running kubuntu 8.04a6 ? | 16:34 |
| mikademus | Absolutely. That, at least, is no doubt about. | 16:34 |
| ForgeAus | if its ubuntu adept wont be there, if its a live CD then I can't understand how it can't be there | 16:34 |
| ForgeAus | unless you've removed it | 16:34 |
| ForgeAus | try apt-get install adept | 16:35 |
| ForgeAus | (oops sudo first unless your already root) | 16:35 |
| blendtux | i am looking for a a good openoffice.org advanced calc tutorial, anybody could give me some pointers | 16:35 |
| mikademus | "already newest version" | 16:35 |
| ForgeAus | and you typed adept_manager ? | 16:35 |
| mikademus | Indeed. Error ensues, without accompanying hilarty | 16:36 |
| stond | Sevis_ try searching for PS3 utilities in your synaptic package manager | 16:36 |
| mikademus | "No protocol specified, cannot connect to X server" | 16:36 |
| ForgeAus | wait cannot connect to X server is not because Adept_manager is missing | 16:37 |
| ForgeAus | its because your X has a problem | 16:37 |
| Sevis_ | no matching applications, stond | 16:37 |
| ForgeAus | you may need to fix your /etc/x11/xorg.conf file | 16:37 |
| mikademus | You know I'm runnung a clean install from just when we started this chat? :D | 16:37 |
| ForgeAus | also if your in the gui (like running it from console) I should have thought of this before... | 16:38 |
| ForgeAus | its not sudo its kdesu (if that doesn't work kdesudo for KDE4 and some newer kubuntu's) so the line becomes kdesu[do] adept_manager | 16:39 |
| stond | well 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 1080p | 16:39 |
| stdin | kdesu is linked to kdesudo, so it'll still work | 16:39 |
| Sevis_ | is there a possibity to edit something manually? | 16:39 |
| stond | i dont know what type of computer are you using | 16:40 |
| JKIceman | is there a good alarm clock for kubuntu? becourse i can't find any. | 16:40 |
| nosrednaekim | kalarm... or karm | 16:41 |
| Jucato | korganizer (but probably too big) | 16:41 |
| ForgeAus | if 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 |
| mikademus | ForgeAus: 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 newb | 16:41 |
| Sevis_ | thank you for your help | 16:41 |
| ForgeAus | um I'm not sure I'm the one to help you with that | 16:42 |
| mikademus | You think it could be the alpha? | 16:42 |
| ForgeAus | if you ran through the webpage I sent you earlier it should have helped you with what goes in there | 16:42 |
| nosrednaekim | mikademus: hey... whats wrong? | 16:42 |
| ForgeAus | no I don't think its the alpha | 16:42 |
| stond | can 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 icon | 16:42 |
| ForgeAus | um I think theres a line sudo dpkg xserver-xorg reconfigure or something like that to reset your xorg.conf to default | 16:43 |
| mikademus | nosrednaekim: hiya, good seeing you again :) Well, to sum it up I'm on the 8.06a6 and virtually nothing works. I've been pestering poor ForgeAus for the longest time now | 16:43 |

| nosrednaekim | ^_^ | 16:45 |
| ForgeAus | well at least I was trying to be of assistance | 16:46 |
| ForgeAus | but of course as we all know I'm very *trying* rofl :) | 16:46 |
| mikademus | Hey, you were of great help! | 16:47 |
| ForgeAus | ... sofar | 16:47 |
| mikademus | But I suspect much of the issues are due to the "alpha" in alpha | 16:47 |
| ForgeAus | mikademus I doubt it | 16:47 |
| ForgeAus | at least in this case | 16:48 |
| nosrednaekim | if its a problem with X, then yes... hardy has lots and lotsa problems with that | 16:49 |
| mikademus | Well, I just got a very helpful recommendation over at #ubuntu+1: "DON'T RUN HARDY". I guess it sums it up quite well. | 16:50 |
| nosrednaekim | hehe | 16:50 |

| emilsedgh | BizMan697: open apache.conf file | 16:58 |
| BizMan697 | in there i can make changes? | 16:58 |

| MilhousePunkRock | Hello everyone! | 16:58 |
| mikademus | Anyway, I'm retrying gutsy, if anyone is interested I can get back to you with how that turned out | 16:59 |
| BizMan697 | any reason why it has 2 ports opeN? | 17:00 |
| MilhousePunkRock | I am trying to set up a vpn connection to my university with kvpnc. I have imported the cisco-pcf but it does not connect... If I open vpnc on a shell and type in the stuff that it wants to know, it connects, but no program with outside connectivity will work. What am I missing | 17:00 |
| emilsedgh | BizMan697: 443 is for ssl (https) | 17:01 |
| MilhousePunkRock | Weird, now it does connect... How to use Konqueror now for the connection? | 17:02 |
| MilhousePunkRock | To be precise: I need the tunnel IP to be my external IP now... | 17:03 |
| BizMan697 | emilsedgh, so should i leave it the same, or there is no problem in using an uncommon port? | 17:03 |
| emilsedgh | BizMan697: if you use an uncommon port, users will have to add the port to address | 17:04 |
| BizMan697 | even if i portfoward? | 17:04 |
| BizMan697 | on my router | 17:04 |
| emilsedgh | BizMan697: so if youre hello.com ir 127.0.0.1, you should type: hello.com:44 or 127.0.0.1:44 (if the new port is 44 for example) | 17:04 |
| emilsedgh | BizMan697: i dunno then | 17:04 |
| * emilsedgh is so bad in networking | 17:05 | |
| BizMan697 | well i guess i can always try it | 17:05 |

| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: have you tried re-adding the printer in system prefs | 17:25 |
| crackhead_25 | through which command? | 17:25 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: is this a network printer or local | 17:25 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: it can be done graphically btw | 17:25 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: im taking it the printer is connected locally right? | 17:26 |
| crackhead_25 | local | 17:26 |

| === bolandocachilo is now known as day | ||

| BizMan697 | is it dangerous leaving ports 80 and 443 open | 17:33 |
| crackhead_25 | coreymon77: i have it already. im in the program. ill see if it does anything. | 17:33 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: youre on linux now, youre most likely not gonna get hacked | 17:34 |
| BizMan697 | just making sure cause i want to create a media server, and i hate leaving low number poirts open | 17:34 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: but, as a general rule, dont leave ports open unless you need to for a specific reason | 17:34 |
| BizMan697 | for ssh i have real high numbers | 17:34 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: if you need to open ports for a reason, then do so, you'll be fine | 17:34 |
| BizMan697 | i need to get in through web pages, to access the media server page to view mp3 nad video | 17:34 |
| llutz | BizMan697: just make sure your listening services are well configured | 17:35 |
| BizMan697 | my concern is if i open it on the router, its open on all pc's including windows is it not? | 17:35 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: that program might work better than kdes default | 17:35 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: not if you only open it for your ip address | 17:35 |
| llutz | BizMan697: who told you so? thats wrong | 17:35 |
| arunkale | what does mkdir -p do | 17:36 |
| BizMan697 | no one, im assuming | 17:36 |
| BizMan697 | cause i have to open the port | 17:36 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: ports can only be opened for specific ips, you can set the port to be open only for your ip, meaning only your computer | 17:36 |
| BizMan697 | then port foward it | 17:36 |
| BizMan697 | oh ok | 17:36 |
| BizMan697 | ur right | 17:36 |
| llutz | arunkale: -p : no error if existing, make parent directories as needed | 17:36 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: port forwarding opens the port for you | 17:36 |
| BizMan697 | how do i set the listening services as u said before | 17:36 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: and for you alone | 17:36 |
| ahmos | nspluginviewer eats 100% of cpu and makes xserver hangs ,any ideas? | 17:36 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: any luck? | 17:37 |
| BizMan697 | port fowarding doesnt open the port to my knowledge, i coudnt vnc into my machine without opening it | 17:37 |
| BizMan697 | portfowarding alone idndt work | 17:37 |
| llutz | BizMan697: read some basics about networking/services etc. | 17:38 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: prot forwarding opens the port for your ip alone | 17:38 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: it remains closed for everyone else | 17:38 |

| crackhead_25 | coreymon77: it went through the printing process but no ink came out.. i know the cartridges are full though | 17:39 |
| llutz | BizMan697: a port is open only if you run a listening service on it | 17:39 |
| coreymon77 | BizMan697: that was meant for you | 17:39 |
| crackhead_25 | coreymon77: it did more than it did before.. it recognized and instaleld.. but now it goes through the printing process and no ink comes out.. that's progress, but not success yet.. | 17:39 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: but it detected the printer | 17:39 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: well, thats atleast better off than we were before | 17:39 |
| BizMan697 | so how do i set listening service? | 17:39 |
| llutz | BizMan697: start it | 17:39 |
| BizMan697 | and i can do that by? | 17:40 |
| llutz | BizMan697: you need a service like http/ssh/telnet/ftp? so install the daemon/server, configure it to your needs, start it and be happy | 17:41 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: im sorry, but the bell is going to ring soon and i have to get back to class, atleast now the printer is detected, keep playing around and ask someone else for help | 17:41 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: im sorry, but i have to go | 17:41 |
| crackhead_25 | coreymon77: you be back later tonight? | 17:41 |

| makdaknife | kaminix: great! do you know what caused it? | 18:22 |
| joseph | makdaknife: so there aren't any major problems with postfix then? | 18:22 |
| kaminix | makdaknife: 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 |
| makdaknife | joseph: 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 issues | 18:23 |
| makdaknife | kaminix: hmmm I've used both kdm's no problems... prolly just the reboot helped :-) | 18:24 |

| ailsa | hello, i am trying to install the flash (non-free) plugin in konqueror (works already in firefox) | 20:40 |
| tekteen | !flash | 20:40 |
| ubotu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:40 |
| swatto | fixed it just restarted x and seems to be working, thanks intelikey | 20:40 |
| tekteen | ailsa: what is the problem? | 20:41 |
| ailsa | i think konqueror finds the plugin, but starts the mplayer plugin instead of the nonfree (tested on youtube) | 20:41 |
| ailsa | is there a way to tell konqueror to use the nonfree plugin? | 20:41 |
| intelikey | swatto hope it holds past a reboot for you. welcome. | 20:41 |
| ailsa | i did everything on the RestrictedFormats homepage, but don't have the update-flashplugin command | 20:43 |
| sammy | intelikey: do you happen to know how X & kdm decides the initial root window size will be? is it the largest available from your list of modelines or is it the first? | 20:44 |
| tekteen | ailsa: go to settings > configure konqeror | 20:44 |
| tekteen | then go to plugins | 20:44 |
| tekteen | ailsa: click the plugin tab | 20:44 |
| sammy | my X.org log shows that RandR is enabled, but I can't change my root window size. for some reason it's determined to be 1280x1024, even when I change my resolution in the control center, with RandR enabled, the root window size doesn't change | 20:45 |
| tekteen | ailsa: tell me when you are done | 20:45 |
| ailsa | i have (all in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins) one flashplugin-alternative.so and 5 mplayerplug-in-* | 20:45 |
| intelikey | sammy xorg uses the first size in the list for the particular depth but kde/kdm is not that streight forward i fear | 20:46 |
| tekteen | ailsa: did you go into the settings? | 20:46 |
| ailsa | the flashplugin Description is: FutureSplash Player | 20:46 |
| tekteen | isn't there also a x-shockwave-flash | 20:47 |
| ailsa | yes there is | 20:47 |
| tekteen | open that | 20:47 |
| intelikey | sammy xorg follows the old XFree86 patern on that. if you know anything about that. | 20:47 |
| ailsa | Description: Shockwave Flash | 20:47 |
| tekteen | what are the suffixes | 20:47 |
| ailsa | swf, but i can't "open" it | 20:47 |
| tekteen | ok | 20:48 |
| sammy | intelikey: 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 |
| ailsa | only look at it (in the Plugins-tab) | 20:48 |
| tekteen | !flashissue | 20:48 |
| ubotu | The Flash plugin installation has been broken for some time. A fix has been released now. If the update fails to install Flash, try « sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree ; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree » | 20:48 |
| tekteen | try « sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree ; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree » | 20:48 |
| ailsa | i will try this and come back, if this doesn't fix it | 20:48 |
| tekteen | ok | 20:48 |
| intelikey | sammy yeah that's kde's doing and i don't use kde so maybe someone else in here can help you with that. | 20:49 |
| sammy | intelikey: no worries. I've asked in kubuntu, kde and xorg. it's friday, no one is sitting around in irc channels this afternoon/evening :) | 20:49 |
| coreymon77 | crackhead_25: heya | 20:50 |
| intelikey | sammy i'm the console guy not the gui dood. so out of my league really. | 20:50 |
| sammy | intelikey: cheers to that. linux gui's have a long way to go :) I'll be running mac os's wm when they finally separate it from the rest of their altered freebsd install and let me install it on top of any linux distro | 20:51 |
| ailsa | tekteen ubota did not help | 20:52 |
| ailsa | the flash plugin does work in firefox | 20:52 |
| ailsa | but not in konqueror | 20:52 |

| ubotu | Yes, I can confirm that I am a bot. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots for all information. | 20:52 |
| ailsa | only the mplayer plugin is shown | 20:52 |
| sammy | kde, 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 |
| sammy | intelikey: scusi? des quatro? the four? no hable... well anything but english | 20:53 |
| intelikey | sammy try blackbox/fluxbox | 20:53 |
| tekteen | ailsa: I do not know. konq. hates flash | 20:53 |
| intelikey | no bells nor whistles but a clean gui | 20:54 |
| intelikey | when i use a gui it's blackbox anymore | 20:55 |
| intelikey | which isn't often | 20:55 |
| sammy | I used to run ... one of those on my AIX box at work intead of clunkycrappy CDE | 20:55 |
| sammy | I 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 back | 20:56 |
| coreymon77 | i have both a macbook and my linux box | 20:57 |
| wad | In 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 |
| intelikey | heh | 20:57 |
| sammy | it'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 enough | 20:57 |
| coreymon77 | i like macos, but linux, especially kubuntu has a special place for me | 20:58 |
| intelikey | i need the control, fine tune everything, default is only the starting point for anything on my system. | 20:58 |
| eddieftw | wad: try checking your thunderbird settings | 20:58 |
| wad | eddieftw, I did that too, actually. :-( | 20:58 |
| wad | I fresh out of ideas. | 20:59 |
| sammy | I 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 world | 20:59 |
| wad | I didn't find any thunderbird settings that looked useful, by the way. | 20:59 |
| wad | Any of you folks use thunderbird? Does clicking on links send the URL to the browser? | 20:59 |
| intelikey | sammy 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 |
| sammy | people 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 about | 21:00 |
| sammy | the 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 |
| sammy | if they're not going to participate, they should be donating $$ to the developers, since they're using something and not giving back. | 21:01 |
| draik | !alias | 21:02 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about alias - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 21:02 |
| coreymon77 | sammy: wrong | 21:02 |
| coreymon77 | sammy: i dont triage bugs due to lack of time | 21:02 |
| wad | sammy: Some people want to work on their computer. Other people want to work on something, using the computer. They don't care about the computer, if it's not functioning properly, it's just in the way. | 21:02 |
| coreymon77 | sammy: but i still do my part | 21:02 |
| intelikey | coreymon77 there is no "right nor wrong" to an openion. | 21:02 |
| sammy | wad: I understand, no no, I see coreymon77's point | 21:02 |
| intelikey | coreymon77 and i share his openion in most points | 21:02 |
| sammy | I'm just saying, there isn't a large enough community of paid developers to pick up the slack | 21:02 |
| sammy | with cars, there's plenty of mechanics | 21:03 |
| sammy | a whole industry worth | 21:03 |

| Blah112 | Hey, 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 |
| intelikey | draik a runtime configuration file | 21:04 |
| intelikey | draik is it bash ? | 21:04 |
| * sammy ammends his original statement as not to imply that people who don't triage bugs are moochers | 21:04 | |
| sammy | I meant those that do nothing, coreymon77. | 21:05 |
| draik | intelikey: I typed alias dvdmount='sudo mount -o loop -t udf' | 21:05 |
| intelikey | draik ok that's bash. put it in ~/.bash.bashrc | 21:05 |
| draik | Thanks | 21:06 |
| Blah112 | Can someone help me? | 21:06 |
| sammy | Blah112: 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 |
| draik | intelikey: Done. Thank you much. | 21:07 |
| Blah112 | k | 21:07 |
| intelikey | draik 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 |
| sammy | Blah112: 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 |
| intelikey | just a thought. | 21:08 |
| draik | intelikey: Great suggestion. How do I put the command into shell script? | 21:08 |
| Blah112 | Alright. Thanks. | 21:09 |
| tekteen | draik: create a text file | 21:09 |
| intelikey | draik 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 |
| draik | intelikey: I use Yakuake when I enter dvdmount [filename.iso] /mnt | 21:09 |
| intelikey | command would look something like this sudo mount -o loop -t udf "$@" | 21:10 |
| draik | What is "$@" ? | 21:11 |
| intelikey | any command line arguments | 21:11 |
| draik | Ok | 21:11 |
| intelikey | well all command line args actually | 21:11 |
| draik | I thought it was something specific | 21:11 |
| draik | I'm aware of $PATH and such | 21:12 |
| draik | Didn't know if "$@" was specific to something. | 21:12 |
| tekteen | it is | 21:12 |
| tekteen | all command line args | 21:12 |
| intelikey | $1 is the first one $2 the second $* is all but doesn't preserve spaces in args and "$@" is all and does pereserve spaces | 21:12 |
| intelikey | when writing any shell script you wish to pass arguments to you use one of those ^ and commonly "$@" | 21:13 |
| draik | Ok | 21:14 |
| intelikey | $[1-9 positional arg 1 - 9 $0 is the name of the script as it's called on the command line. | 21:14 |
| draik | So the text file is only a line that states... sudo mount -o loop -t udf "$@" | 21:15 |
| intelikey | yeap unless you want to be fancy | 21:15 |

| mikdemus | nixternal: thanks, it worked. I not get the message that I don't have the X libraries. You know the package name for those? | 22:06 |
| nosrednaekim | xorg-dev I think mikdemus | 22:06 |
| === desmond is now known as D3Zz | ||
| mikdemus | nosrednaekim: you live here man?! :) But I'm happy, you always give good answers! | 22:06 |
| nixternal | there are so many X libraries that it isn't even funny | 22:07 |
| nixternal | what 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 too | 22:08 |
| nixternal | makes searching easy most of the times | 22:08 |
| mikdemus | Yeah, it makes sense. | 22:08 |
| mikdemus | Hmm, I'm compiling KDE themes. Now it seems I need the Qt libraries... O.o | 22:09 |
| nixternal | mikdemus: all qt libs start with either libqt3 or Qt3 and libqt4 for Qt4 | 22:09 |
| mikdemus | Are there any reason for not getting the Qt4 libs? | 22:10 |
| mikdemus | reasons | 22:10 |
| nixternal | mikdemus: no reason for not getting them...most of the apps you find on kde-apps.org are going to be qt4 nowadays | 22:11 |

| mikdemus | I'm a bit o edge about not breaking anything, I've grown a bit cautious into my 20th install in a week.... (no exxageration) | 22:12 |
| eddieftw | i wish i could make a joke, but then i would get banned by the admins nixternal. | 22:12 |
| mikdemus | What is the apt-get syntax for searching for a particular package? | 22:12 |
| eddieftw | mikdemus: sudo apt-get install (package name) | 22:13 |
| nixternal | apt-cache search | 22:13 |
| nixternal | mikdemus: ^^ | 22:13 |
| eddieftw | sudo aptitude search (package) works for me too | 22:13 |
| nixternal | eddieftw: when searching you don't need sudo | 22:13 |
| eddieftw | nixternal is the boss, you listen to him though | 22:13 |
| mikdemus | ok, damn,I am having difficulties remembering everything! | 22:13 |
| eddieftw | mikdemus: it takes time | 22:15 |
| mikdemus | Yeah, the initial threshold is rather steep... | 22:15 |
| mikdemus | Earlier today I was so frustrated I seriously considered going back to WInXP and forgetting about Linux :( | 22:15 |
| nixternal | mikdemus: after you break and fix your install a few times, you will start remembering...that is how I did it back in 94/95...I broke my Linux installs on a daily basis, but back then documentation and support was sparse at best | 22:16 |
| sandro__ | hi can someone tell me how come my SD card isnt being read in the media slot? | 22:16 |
| sandro__ | it doesnt even register in the media section | 22:17 |
| eddieftw | mikdemus: my brother installed ubuntu and forced me to use instead of winXP. but now i love it and hang out in here to help people like you on a daily basis. :P | 22:17 |
| nixternal | sandro__: which version of Kubuntu are you running? did it pop up asking what you wanted to do? | 22:17 |
| mikdemus | And I appreciate it! | 22:17 |
| nixternal | also sandro__, if you could go into a terminal window (Konsole) and type -> dmesg <- see if the SD card is being recognized | 22:17 |
| sandro__ | ok im new at this sorry for being ignorant, im running what i think is the latest version of kubuntu | 22:18 |
| eddieftw | sandro__: gutsy gibbon. version 7.04? | 22:19 |
| sandro__ | yes | 22:19 |
| eddieftw | if you have a konsole or terminal open do this: ls_release -a | 22:19 |
| jawee | eddieftw: 7.10 is Gusty Gibbon. 7.04 is Fiesty Fawn | 22:19 |
| === emilsedgh_ is now known as emilsedgh | ||

| eddieftw | and that will print out your working distrobution... | 22:20 |
| eddieftw | gah | 22:20 |
| eddieftw | nixternal: apparently I *have* been drinking on the job | 22:20 |
| nixternal | figures | 22:20 |
| sandro__ | so what do i do again? | 22:20 |
| nixternal | eddieftw: go to PyCon with me next week | 22:20 |
| nixternal | sandro__: dmesg | 22:20 |
| sandro__ | ok ive done that | 22:20 |
| nixternal | see if it is recognizing the SD card | 22:20 |
| mikdemus | Ok, new attempt. The error message is "checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.3 and < 4.0) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!" | 22:20 |
