[00:02] <charwood> Is it possible that the problem is that I am already connected to my router on eth0 so wlan0 won't connect?
[00:04] <BluesKaj> charwood, never used wlan0 , always eth0 and I'm behind a router , with no problems
=== JESUSfreak_ is now known as JESUSfreak__
[00:05] <BluesKaj> charwood, why wlan0 BTW ?
[00:06] <charwood> BluesKaj: Sorry, are you suggesting that I never use wlan0 or are you saying that you don't?  My eth0 and wlan0 are different devices.  eth0 is my wired, wlan0 is my wireless.  Sometimes I'd rather use the one, sometimes the other.
[00:06] <charwood> (i.e. if I'm in the office, I use wired otherwise wireless).
[00:08] <BluesKaj> ok , sorry i have no experience with wireless , thought it was a wired network application that's different than eth0
[00:08] <BluesKaj> !wireless
[00:09] <BluesKaj> !info wireless
[00:09] <BluesKaj> hmm. ubotu isn't awake tonite
[00:09] <coreymon77> oh
[00:09] <charwood> ubotu: Wake up.
[00:10] <charwood> BluesKaj: That's ok.  Yeah, I've never been successful getting wireless to work in [k]ubuntu.  Before I've always had to try using the broadcom drivers.  But this new notebook uses the intel chipset which I hoped would be friendlier.  Indeed, I do seem closer than before but not clsoe enough.
[00:12] <BluesKaj> charwood, the latest kubuntus are much more wireless freindly than previous and the intel one should work fine . I've seen ppl seeking advice about them here , but not often.
[00:14] <charwood> Yes, since edgy wireless seems to be happier.  If anyone sees my plight and sympathizes, I'll try to keep watching the channel.
[00:14] <BluesKaj> !ubotu
[00:18] <charwood> When I run /etc/init.d/networking DHCPDISCOVER runs on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 on port 67.  Is that normal?  Seems like a strange mask, and does DHCP really use port 67?
[00:19] <coreymon77> charwood: so, whats the matter
[00:20] <charwood> coreymon77: I can't seem to get my wireless set up correctly and I'm not sure where the problem lies.
[00:20] <coreymon77> charwood: well, tell me more
[00:22] <charwood> coreymon77: Ok.  It's a new laptop--it has the intel 3845 set.  I found on the ubuntu forums to blacklist certain modules and to enable others (specifically iwl3845 and iwlwifi_mac80211).  Modprobing these seemed to work.  Using kwifimanager I set up a configuration for my home access point.  It seems correct and kwifimanager sees my access point but can't connect.
[00:23] <coreymon77> charwood: what do you mean by cant connect? is there any error? anything
[00:23] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[00:24] <charwood> coreymon77: That's the infuriorating part.  I'm not getting any error messages.  When I hit the "Scan for Networks" it sometimes shows mine and my neighbor's but usually it says "The scan is complete but no networks were found" and yet in the status of Active Connection box it displays the SSID of my connection and the MAC addrss of my router but says the Local IP is "unavailable".
[00:24] <coreymon77> try this
[00:25] <coreymon77> charwood: what interface is your card labelled as, wlan0?
[00:25] <charwood> coreymon77: Yes.
[00:25] <coreymon77> wep key?
[00:26] <charwood> Well, I'
[00:26] <coreymon77> charwood: any encryption
[00:26] <charwood> I'm not actually using WEP (I don't think).  I'm using WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK
[00:27] <coreymon77> charwood: okay, then did you install the extra stuff and do the extra setup for wpa?
[00:27] <charwood> coreymon77: I have done no extra stuff for WPA.  What extra stuff is involved?
[00:29] <charwood> coreymon77: Let me google this for a while so I don't waste your time.  Just a minute (and thanks).
=== ubuntu_ is now known as Hazor
=== Hazor is now known as HazorV
[00:31] <coreymon77> charwood: youre not wasting my time
[00:31] <coreymon77> charwood: this is what im here for
[00:31] <coreymon77> charwood: what card are you using again
[00:31] <charwood> coreymon77: Intel PRO 3945
[00:32] <coreymon77> charwood: okay, good
[00:32] <coreymon77> charwood: you do have internet on the computer right?
[00:32] <charwood> coreymon77: From what I can tell knetworkmanager should provide the necessary support for WPA-PSK.  I'm not sure where to configure it though.  In the "configuration manager" there is a place to put in 4 keys.  Is this what I want?
[00:33] <charwood> coreymon77: Yes.  I'm using the computer that I'm trying to get wireless working on here but I'm connected through eth0.
[00:33] <coreymon77> charwood: knetworkmanager is very buggy imo
[00:34] <charwood> coreymon77: That has become my opinion as well.  But the only alternative I'm aware of is /etc/network/interfaces and it's a bit intimidating.
[00:35] <coreymon77> hmm
[00:35] <coreymon77> well, what driver are you using again
[00:36] <charwood> ilw3945 and iwlwifi_mac80211 (Not sure which is what)
[00:38] <coreymon77> charwood: sorry, but to tell you the truth, im not all that familiar with wpa
[00:38] <charwood> The man pages for interfaces and iwconfig offer no information about it either.  I assumed that no one used WEP anymore.  My understanding is that breaking its encryption is trivial.
[00:39] <coreymon77> if someone wanted to break it, they could, but its still a pain
[00:39] <coreymon77> besides, your on linux now, what can someone really do to you anyways
[00:40] <charwood> coreymon77: Yeah, it's not like security is a big deal to me but I have several computers running here that are Windows boxes and I have lots of SMB shares that I'd rather not be public and whatnot.

[00:45] <coreymon77> katja: does it sound normal? :P
[00:46] <katja> Well... It doesn't sound production ready, but hey, I've coded my fair share of C++, so I'm sort of used to it...
[00:46] <michael__> should I do the version upgrade with adept? I just installed 7.10 and installed all the updates.
[00:47] <katja> Adept is the one crashing every so often... ;)
[00:47] <katja> apt-get works fine...
[00:48] <HazorV> Meep, anyone wanna give a linux newbie a hand with fdisk?
[00:48] <cpk1> I hate adept anyways
[00:48] <cpk1> I stick to aptitude
[00:49] <michael__> is it recommended to do a version upgrade with adept?
[00:49] <Y-Town> <<<< Synaptic
[00:49] <katja> Well, now adept broke something and I get a lot of "failed to write cache" errors...
[00:56] <michael__> distro upgrade is locked up at 0% but tells me that if I cancel it, I may render the OS the be unstable
[00:57] <michael__> I just installed 7.10
[00:58] <michael__>  why does adept tell me that there is a newer version ready to be D/Led and installed
[00:59] <coreymon77> michael__: bug
[00:59] <coreymon77> michael__: ignore it
[00:59] <michael__> when it was trying install, this 'newer' version as 7.10.............  the same version I just installed.
[00:59] <michael__> what do I do when I cancel it?
[00:59] <coreymon77> oh, you already started
[00:59] <michael__> will I have to reinstall?
[00:59] <michael__> yeah
[01:00] <coreymon77> i dont know, ask the others
[01:00] <michael__> it froze at  0%      lol
[01:00] <michael__> tried
[01:00] <michael__> no response
[01:00] <coreymon77> wow, thats something windows would do
[01:00] <michael__> yeah
[01:01] <michael__> I'm canceling
[01:01] <michael__> if I have to reinstall, I will
[01:02] <coreymon77> probably wont matter
[01:02] <michael__> but I bet that means that I will always have a warning to install updates in the system tray
[01:02] <coreymon77> not really
[01:02] <coreymon77> it sorted itself out for me
[01:03] <michael__> oh really?
[01:03] <michael__> cool
[01:03] <michael__> grrr
[01:03] <michael__> error in upgrading

[01:04] <michael__> (not distro thankfully)
[01:04] <michael__> just the regular packages
[01:04] <michael__> There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages.

[01:07] <michael__> :o)
[01:07] <ZeH> :)
[01:07] <coreymon77> michael__: anyways, did apt-get update have any messages at the end
[01:07] <michael__> so does that meean, its upgraded now?
[01:08] <ZeH> best way of sending 1 gb files from windows to kubuntu :P ?
[01:08] <coreymon77> no
[01:08] <cpk1> update lets it know about upgrades
[01:08] <ZeH> 2 different computers in LAN
[01:08] <coreymon77> michael__: all that does is lets apt know that there is an update

[01:10] <coreymon77> michael__: is the little update notification still there?
[01:10] <michael__> yes
[01:11] <coreymon77> michael__: try it again, but dont "upgrade your distro" if it asys so again
[01:11] <michael__> through adept?
[01:11] <coreymon77> michael__: actually
[01:11] <coreymon77> michael__: do sudo apt-get upgrade

[01:23] <Roey> Quick question:  I have an Intel i945 graphics card.  X mis-detects it, so I fixed /etc/X11/xorg.conf (I changed from "i810" to "intel" driver).  But for some reason, kdm (which starts automatically) does not seem to be following /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  What's wrong here?
[01:23] <michael__> brb
[01:23] <Roey> i.e. when I start kdm (on bootup), I get unaccelerated graphics.
[01:25] <BluesKaj> Roey,I think you have to actually uninstall i810 driver

[01:37] <kuser51> there something new in kubuntu
[01:37] <blueyed> kuser51: my impression is that gnome is more polished in Ubuntu and you can always use kde apps therein.. you can even install kubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop side by side and decide on login what to use.

[01:49] <Dr_Willis> ntfsprogs - tools for doing neat things in NTFS partitions from Linux --- has a tool to backup ntfs partitions.
[01:49] <yao_ziyuan> Dr_Willis: i searched kde-look.org for "hardy" and "8.04", not found.
[01:49] <bubba> there is but amarak freeze..and kaffeine just crashed
[01:49] <Dr_Willis> yao_ziyuan,  could install it with vmware then and steal the wallpaper.
[01:50] <yao_ziyuan> yes
[01:50] <yao_ziyuan> fortunately i haven't deleted the iso
[01:50] <yao_ziyuan> but this iso is Hardy KDE Alpha 6
[01:50] <yao_ziyuan> is anyone with kubuntu 8.04 alpha with kde 3.5.8 now?
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> i dont bend over too far backwards for just desktop wallpaper. :)
[01:51] <yao_ziyuan> Dr_Willis: kde4 isn't mature for east asia
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> I dont plan on using kde4 any time soon either. :)
[01:52] <Dr_Willis> its not too mature for the rest of the world either. :)
[01:52] <Dr_Willis> but its getting better
[01:53] <yao_ziyuan> are kubuntu 8.04 alphas available in FTP directories?
[01:53] <yao_ziyuan> maybe then i can fetch the individual wallpaper somewhere
[01:55] <Dr_Willis> yao_ziyuan,  easiest way would be go ask in #ubuntu+1 and see if someone will send it to you
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> i would.. but i have no idea what one is the default.
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> i hated the default ubuntu one, so i keep nice simple wallpaper
[01:56] <yao_ziyuan> i can restore a lower resolution wallpaper from screenshots at http://www.thecodingstudio.com/opensource/linux/screenshots/index.php?linux_distribution_sm=Kubuntu%208.04%20Hardy%20Heron%20Alpha%205
[01:57] <yao_ziyuan> ha, it's here: http://www.vladstudio.com/wallpaper/?288
[01:57] <yao_ziyuan> has a waterprint
[01:57] <yao_ziyuan> but fine
[01:58] <yao_ziyuan> i know this russian artist VLADSTUDIO years ago
[01:58] <yao_ziyuan> i mean i used some of his artworks
[01:59] <yao_ziyuan> as wallpapers
[02:01] <yao_ziyuan> still i will download an iso for waterprint-less :)
[02:02] <bubba> why cant i play a dvd
[02:02] <bubba> i'm very new to kubunty
[02:02] <bubba> kubuntu
[02:07] <coreymon77> what the?
[02:07] <coreymon77> LjL: why did you just ban ubotu
[02:07] <LjL> because it's been not working for like six hours?
[02:08] <coreymon77> LjL: but why ban?
[02:08] <LjL> !test

[02:08] <ubotwo> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[02:18] <Ashex> where can I find icons for adept manager?
[02:19] <yao_ziyuan> i have a question
[02:19] <yao_ziyuan> i installed my ubuntu 7.10 + kubuntu-desktop this way:
[02:19] <yao_ziyuan> i was a windows xp user
[02:19] <yao_ziyuan> then i downloaded GRUB4DOS
[02:20] <yao_ziyuan> which is a boot loader that can load a minimum Ubuntu setup program "vmlinuz" which is part of Ubuntu's release
[02:21] <yao_ziyuan> it is a NETBOOT program, which means after it is loaded by GRUB4DOS, it will download Ubuntu installation files online
[02:21] <yao_ziyuan> then, i first let it install "Base System",
[02:22] <yao_ziyuan> which i assume is a basic debian
[02:22] <yao_ziyuan> then, i go into this base system,
[02:22] <yao_ziyuan> and entered:
[02:22] <yao_ziyuan> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[02:22] <yao_ziyuan> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:22] <coreymon77> yao_ziyuan: no, base debian is base debiam
[02:22] <coreymon77> debian*
[02:22] <coreymon77> yao_ziyuan: base ubuntu is base ubuntu
[02:22] <yao_ziyuan> ok
[02:22] <yao_ziyuan> that doesn't matter
[02:23] <yao_ziyuan> then i start the computer into kubuntu
[02:23] <yao_ziyuan> my problem is:
[02:23] <yao_ziyuan> if i open KSystemGuard,
[02:23] <yao_ziyuan> i see many processes "duplicated"
[02:23] <yao_ziyuan> for example, i see two "scim-launcher"
[02:23] <yao_ziyuan> two "pdflush"
[02:24] <yao_ziyuan> two "kdm"
[02:24] <yao_ziyuan> is that normal?
[02:24] <yao_ziyuan> i think two kdm's are not normal...
[02:24] <yao_ziyuan> two avahi-daemon
[02:24] <yao_ziyuan> two bluetoothd-serv
[02:24] <yao_ziyuan> three dbus-daemon
[02:24] <yao_ziyuan> 6 getty
[02:25] <yao_ziyuan> 4 hald-addon-keyb
[02:25] <yao_ziyuan> 2 konqueror
[02:25] <yao_ziyuan> let me put it straight:
[02:26] <yao_ziyuan> i think ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop configured many programs to start twice...
[02:27] <yao_ziyuan> does anyone also see 2 kdm's in ksysguard?
[02:27] <coreymon77> that wouldnt make sense, ubuntu doesnt use kdm, it uses gdm
[02:27] <coreymon77> by default atleast
[02:27] <yao_ziyuan> well,
[02:28] <yao_ziyuan> i do see these two kdm's are executed with different commands:
[02:28] <yao_ziyuan> one is: /usr/bin/kdm
[02:28] <yao_ziyuan> the other is: -:0
[02:30] <yao_ziyuan> then i googled and found it might be normal
[02:30] <yao_ziyuan> the first result says:
[02:30] <yao_ziyuan> bsdforums.org - FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, MacOS X, Darwin, Linux ...Oh about two kdm thing.... I think there is nothing wrong with that... I mean in my system I also have two kdm as well.... This is true for xdm as well. ...

[02:54] <Combatjuan> I'm using KDE4 and it's lovely but none of the compositing effects seem to be on.  Is there a master switch for them somewhere?  I've enabled them in several of the System Settings pages.
[02:55] <hitmanWilly> is it set up in xorg.conf to enable compositing?
[02:55] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I did set up xorg.conf to use the real nvidia driver and to enable glx and dri.  Is compositing a module?
[02:56] <hitmanWilly> nah, its a switch you pass to the graphics card section....hold on a sec...
[02:57] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Thanks.  Is this something having to do with xrender?
[02:58] <hitmanWilly> don't think so, but you need to add <Option "Composite" "Enable"> under the graphics card section of xorg.conf
[02:58] <hitmanWilly> that's IIRC
[02:59] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: That's in the Device section?  And it doesn't matter what driver is being used?
[02:59] <hitmanWilly> that's for either the 3d accelerated versions of the nvidia or ati drivers, and yes, in the device section
[03:00] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Ok.  I'll give X a restart.  Thanks.
[03:00] <hitmanWilly> np man
[03:01] <cuzntx> !botsnack
[03:01] <ubotwo> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[03:01] <hitmanWilly> lol, slow tonight I see
[03:01] <bubba> i tried to get medibuntu and now i cant open the apt installer
[03:03] <hitmanWilly> !aptfix
[03:03] <ubotwo> If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[03:04] <bubba> ty
[03:05] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Hmmm... No change.  /var/log/Xorg.0.log says: (WW) NVIDIA Option "Composite" is not used.
[03:05] <hitmanWilly> hmmm, well, let me see what I can dig up....
[03:06]  * hitmanWilly is a windowmaker user...lol
[03:06] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Thanks.  The odd thing is (and maybe this is just vim being silly) Composite is syntax highlighted like it is a keyword.
=== peter__ is now known as takwak
[03:07] <takwak>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[03:07] <takwak> ....
[03:07] <takwak> oops
[03:09] <hitmanWilly> ok, sorry app crashed on me...guess that's what I get for being on my windows partition...lol
[03:09] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Ha.  No problem.
[03:10] <hitmanWilly> anyway, vim recoignizes composite as a keyword because it is in xorg syntax
[03:11] <hitmanWilly> and I'm pretty sure buntu vim comes with all the syntax modules pre-installed
[03:11] <hitmanWilly> anyway, let me do some googling right quick
[03:11] <icanhasadmin> heh, good thing you didn't say your apss
[03:11] <icanhasadmin> *pass
[03:14] <hitmanWilly> hmm, looks like it might be a bug
[03:14] <Dai_Elsewhere> has anyone reliably gotten compiz working with the x200?
[03:14] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Hmmm... With my nVidia driver or kde4 or what?
[03:15] <acee1234> how do i get dvd playback working?
[03:15] <Dai_Elsewhere> !dvd | acee1234
[03:15] <ubotwo> acee1234: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:15] <hitmanWilly> ok, hold on, i was being stupid, that Option "Composite" "Enable" needs to go in extensions
=== Thecks is now known as Tom[HP]
[03:16] <Dai_Elsewhere> ah, i'll check on that in the forums
[03:16] <hitmanWilly> Combatjuan: as in:
[03:17] <hitmanWilly> Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" EndSection
[03:17] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Is that a section?  Session "Extensions"\nOption "Composite" "Enable"\nEndSection
[03:17] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: You're the man.  Thanks.
[03:17] <hitmanWilly> lol, again, don't use a lot of desktop effects, as I'm a minimalist...lol
[03:18] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: I don't plan to abuse them much but I'm a pretty big fan of transparent stuffs.
[03:18] <acee1234> Dai_Elsewhere: libdvdcss2 is already installed
[03:20] <Y-Town> I am trying to set up the package no-ip and it doesnt work... anyone got it to work?
[03:20] <hitmanWilly> !info no-ip
[03:21] <Dai_Elsewhere> i'll return later
[03:21] <acee1234> got it
[03:21] <Dr`Coon> can someone answer my question please
[03:21] <Y-Town> hitmanWilly: thats not a good start  :o)
[03:22] <hitmanWilly> what was your question again, Dr`Coon?
[03:22] <Dr`Coon> from this website: http://torrent.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/gutsy/release/dvd/ do i download the 64 bit version if I have a core 2 duo
[03:22] <hitmanWilly> i'd say stick with 32, less compatibility issues
[03:22] <Dr`Coon> ok
[03:22] <Dr`Coon> thanks
[03:23] <hitmanWilly> Y-Town: well, i've never used it so I couldn't tell you :(
[03:24] <Y-Town> hitmanWilly: any ideas of what to use to remote login to a system on dhcp?
[03:24] <hitmanWilly> ssh?
[03:25] <Y-Town> hitmanWilly: I mean for ftp and web server
[03:26] <hitmanWilly> oh, i'd say try gftp for client side
[03:26] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: I'm not sure whether to be encouraged or discouraged.  /var/log/xorg.0.log says that compositing is now enabled but there has been no change to anything's appearance.  I'm trying to add random effects from System Settings->Desktop->Desktop Effects but nothing wants to be pretty.
[03:26] <Dr`Coon> also, im planning on installing Kubuntu on a drive with winXP already.  will the live install have a partitioner so that I can partition before install?
[03:27] <hitmanWilly> did you add the ARGBGlx visuals line?
[03:27] <Jucato> Combatjuan: try asking in #kubuntu-kde4 for help with KDE 4 effects
[03:27] <Combatjuan> Jucato: Oh!  Thanks.
[03:27] <hitmanWilly> Dr`Coon: yes, but its a destructive partitioner IIRC
[03:28] <hitmanWilly> as in it has to wipe the whole drive to re=partition
[03:28] <Dr`Coon> i heard partition magic will give me problems in unbuntu
[03:29] <hitmanWilly> it shouldn't if you leave the partition blank and format on install
[03:29] <Dr`Coon> ORLY?
[03:29] <Dr`Coon> thanks man you're a big help
[03:30] <hitmanWilly> just backup anything you can't lose beforehand, just in case
[03:30] <Dr`Coon> ok good call
[03:30] <hitmanWilly> partitioning is always a tricky business
[03:32] <hitmanWilly> oh god, root with a double _ means there's at least 2 other people here logged in as root...
[03:33] <icanhasadmin> lol@ hitmanWilly
[03:33] <nanothief> I want to write a html mail by entering the raw html (instead of using the editor) with kmail. How do you do this?
[03:34] <hitmanWilly> try just typing it in to the window, should work IIRC
[03:34] <nanothief> yeah I tried that, but when I opened the sent email, you just see the raw html
[03:34] <hitmanWilly> hmmm
[03:35] <hitmanWilly> open and close <html></html> in the message, right?
[03:35] <nanothief> yep
[03:36] <hitmanWilly> oh wait, kmail doesn't render html code by default IIRC
[03:36] <nanothief> I opened the email with gmail, and it still happened though
[03:36] <hitmanWilly> oh, well crap then....
[03:37] <Combatjuan> Jucato: I think they're all pretty asleep in #kubuntu-kde4
[03:37] <Combatjuan> nanothief: Yes, kmail doesn't render HTML by default.  That's my favorite feature it has.
[03:37] <nanothief> hmmm I've had a lot of problems with kmail and html, maybe it just doesn't like that sort of mail :P
[03:38] <nanothief> Combatjuan: is that for sending or receiving email?
[03:38] <hitmanWilly> Combatjuan: did you add Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" under the screen section?
[03:39] <Combatjuan> nanothief: Receiving.
[03:39] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: No.  I'll try that as well.
[03:40] <hitmanWilly> kk
[03:40] <nanothief> Combatjuan: ahh well my problem is with sending, so its probably not a cause of it
[03:41] <prince_jammys> nanothief: try enabling html messages in kmail and then sending that same html message to yourself
[03:42] <prince_jammys> the problem is most likely in receiving the messages
[03:45] <nanothief> prince_jammys: it still comes up as raw text, (with html enabled), and the same happens in gmail
[03:47] <nanothief> there must be some sort of header that is sent with html emails to inform the reader that it is html
[03:47] <hitmanWilly> nanothief: well, you could try adding the html file as an attachment
[03:49] <nanothief> hitmanWilly: well that worked, I guess I'll stick with that then
[03:49] <nanothief> thanks
[03:51] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: I finally got it.  It seemed to be the combination of Extensions:Composite enabled and Device:EnableCompositeWithGLX enabled and perhaps also AddARGBGLXEnabled true.
[03:51] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Thanks for your help.
[03:51] <hitmanWilly> np, good for you getting it working :)
[03:52] <Combatjuan> hitmanWilly: Oh, and you might want to reconsider your minimalist ways.  It's quite gorgeous.
[03:52] <hitmanWilly> lol
[03:52] <hitmanWilly> id never even open X if I didn't have so many graphical apps that use it
[03:53]  * hitmanWilly misses the cmd line only days
[03:53] <nanothief> yeah, the most beautiful thing on my computer is my $PS1 variable

[03:55] <Lovecats> hi all :D
[03:55] <hitmanWilly> sup
[03:55] <Lovecats> i just got a cheap laptop from costco (gateway ml6231) and my ubuntu install (7.10) went great..
[03:55] <Lovecats> one issue, however... it doesnt see my wireless card
[03:56] <Lovecats> should the addition of a wireless card be, more or less, automatic assuming its pnp or does this generally require an extra step?
[03:56] <hitmanWilly> depends on the chipset
[03:56] <Lovecats> well im looking at the gateway specs...
[03:57] <Lovecats> Intel 943GML
[03:57] <Lovecats> let me guess.. im screwed :D
[03:57] <hitmanWilly> intel, should work but you might have to install the proprietary drivers for it
[03:57] <Lovecats> kk
[03:58] <Lovecats> i hope i can use my card reader by default to facilitate easy transfer of the drivers to my laptop
[03:58] <hitmanWilly> let me check google right quick
[03:58] <Lovecats> kthx :D
[03:58] <Lovecats> lol ubuntu is so much better than vista :D
[03:58] <hitmanWilly> agreed...lol
[03:58] <Lovecats> :)
[03:59] <Lovecats> i havent tried to install linux since back in the "good ole days" of the mid 90s :D
[03:59] <Lovecats> so i must say that, even though the wireless drivers were unsuccesfull, everything else was a snap!
[04:00] <wargoth> hi all. i've got a problem with KDE 3.5.9. I've recently updated my 7.10. now all icons on desktop are from the root folder (not from the ~/Desktop folder) . What's wrong?
[04:00] <Lovecats> dam i just realized the only memory card i have is CF and my laptop doesnt support it :D
[04:01] <k4ever> can someone point me in the right direction.  i need my wireless interface to start on boot.  it uses wpa encryption.  the configuration in systemsettings is only set up for wep
[04:01] <Lovecats> sorry k4 im a noob :D
[04:01] <hitmanWilly> k4ever: you need wpasupplicant probably
[04:02] <k4ever> hitmanWilly:  I have wpasupplicant installed
[04:02] <hitmanWilly> Lovecats: can you pastebin the ouput of "lshw -C network" please?

Was sent here from #radiant (radiant is a ruby cms), as it appears that somehow my path/ENV is messed up (according to the helper who's been working with me).

My rubygems look OK - I see them...

[08:04] <allyourrejects> 64bit kubuntu 7.1 only sees 3gig of my 4 gigs of ram,  why is that?
[08:06] <pushax> allyourrejects: maybe for the same reason why Vista 64bit doesn't either
[08:06] <allyourrejects> it sees 5 gigs in my other pc...
[08:07] <allyourrejects> i think...  now that i think about it, i've never actually looked
[08:07] <pushax> sorry Vista 32bit only sees 3gb
[08:07] <allyourrejects> yes, linux 32bit 4 gigs would be 1gb kernel, 3 gb user space
[08:08] <allyourrejects> crap.. same problem on other pc
[08:08] <allyourrejects> oh wait.. nvrmind.  its remote and booted into 32bit atm
[08:09] <allyourrejects> guess i don't have another pc to check this on :(
[08:09] <allyourrejects> bios shows 4gb though, so did vista
[08:09] <pushax> http://www.softwarevoices.com/archives/53-Only-seeing-3GB-of-RAM-on-Ubuntu-7.04-Feisty-when-4GB-are-installed-SOLUTION.html
[08:10] <pushax> maybe you need the server version of the kernel to egt the greater memory.  do the research though as I'm jumping on tip bits
[08:10] <allyourrejects> switching to server kernel?
[08:11] <pushax> ask about the problem in #ubuntu
[08:11] <allyourrejects> huh...  they must select the less than 4gb optoin when they compile non-server
[08:11] <allyourrejects> interesting.  thanks
[08:11] <pushax> hmm maybe.  I've never personally tinkered witht hat amount of emmory yet.  but interested.
[08:12] <pushax> np
[08:12] <allyourrejects> i've yet to use all 4gb ;)
[08:12] <harmental> hey guys...why are the xemacs menus and fonts so UGLY in linux?
[08:12] <allyourrejects> not even close.
[08:13] <allyourrejects> pushax: 3gb of "cached" stuff is nice though
[08:13] <allyourrejects> specially since the default install is just under 3gb
[08:13] <pushax> harmental: the looks are as good as you install fonts and setup your desktop.
[08:14] <pushax> allyourrejects: ehehe flexibility is also good.  like pushing and popping between the whole ram
[08:15] <pushax> allyourrejects: Alpha6 Hardy Heron is really good.  Alot fo improvements.  I heard they are reserving the bottom 64k to protect the sytem but I haven't learnt enough about how the kernel works.  I've never heard of a 1/4 take for the kernel, if that's what you're implying
[08:16] <harmental> pushax: i know i have the exact same configuration of xemacs at home (kubuntu) and at the lab (win) and the win version looks a lot prettier....especially the menus....and the fonts definition (in kubuntu they seem kinda pixelized)
[08:17] <pushax> harmental:  have you turned on antialiasing?
[08:18] <harmental> pushax: how do i do that?
[08:18] <allyourrejects> pushax: 1/4 is always been that way on 32bit
[08:18] <pushax> harmental: as you probably know there are two phases of setting the configuration,  one at the systyem-root level and one for your own.  System aore apps may use the root settings
[08:19] <allyourrejects> pushax: if you select "less than 4gb" when compiling, the kernel help even states what action will take place with the split
[08:19] <pushax> allyourrejects: ok.  I've onyl been on linux for a month.  I used to run a rehad server about 10+ years ago, though.
[08:19] <pushax> allyourrejects: ok.  something new learnt
[08:20] <allyourrejects> there is less than 4, more than 4, and more than 6  options i think.. I haven't looked in about 6 months though
[08:20] <pushax> allyourrejects: are you doing your own kernel building?
[08:20] <allyourrejects> not for a very long time
[08:20] <allyourrejects> We do build kernels at work though
[08:21] <mi> http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/7379/snapshot8pd2.png
[08:21] <mi> :)
[08:21] <allyourrejects> for embedded devices though, so... memory usage page is almost never viewed.  We are lucky to have 32mb
[08:22] <harmental> pushax: i think i am not following you....
[08:22] <allyourrejects> upgrading to latest hardy at the moment, see if they changed it :)
[08:22] <bjacob> kubuntu hardy here; wlan (iwl3945) doesn't work anymore since upgrade to linux 2.6.24-11-generic. any idea?
[08:22] <pushax> harmental:  I'm saying maybe you ahven't configured your root level fonts and settings.
[08:22] <allyourrejects> bjacob: i would check and make sure your /lib/firmware files are still good
[08:23] <harmental> where can i set the root fonts and stuff???
[08:23] <bjacob> thanks allyourrejects. how could I tell whether they're good ?
[08:23] <harmental> (i didnt know that....)
[08:23] <ere4si> mi, nice dark theme :)
[08:23] <mi> ere4si: in kde4 everything is nice
[08:23] <ere4si> :)
[08:23] <allyourrejects> bjacob: read the logs (dmesg) and see if you see anything failing to load firmware related to iwl3945
[08:24] <pushax> mi:  nice kde4
[08:24] <mi> tq
[08:24] <ere4si> mi, posted on the forums gallery?
[08:25] <bjacob> allyourrejects: dmesg does not mention any problem.
[08:25] <mi> u can i not member
[08:25] <allyourrejects> bjacob: does the card show in iwconfig?
[08:25] <mi> ( gnome,kde,kde4,xfce here)
[08:25] <bjacob> allyourrejects: yes, and i can scan networks
[08:25] <ere4si> mi, easy to register - then lots can see you're work :)
[08:26] <mi> ok
[08:26] <allyourrejects> bjacob: and network show up and stuff?
[08:26] <bjacob> allyourrejects: however knetworkmanager stays at "28%" when trying to associate
[08:26] <bjacob> yes they show up
[08:26] <bjacob> it worked with 2.6.24-8
[08:27] <allyourrejects> bjacob: well... it could be a driver issue..  try moving closer to the AP ?
[08:27] <bjacob> already tried :)
[08:27] <allyourrejects> alwas 28%?
[08:27] <bjacob> yes
[08:28] <bjacob> i also tried broascasting SSID and disabling security (WPA). No change
[08:28] <allyourrejects> that sux...  cause I doubt anything really changed with the driver in the -# releases
[08:28] <pushax> bjacob: I noticed that if your hosts file is badly setup on hardy heron the network will seem like the drivers are broken, rather than simply not connecting.  check your /etc/hosts
[08:28] <allyourrejects> maybe the firmware changed?
[08:30] <bjacob> pushax: there was a typo in my hosts. fixed. now how do i apply changes? is reboot necessary?
[08:30] <bjacob> allyourrejects: let me check...
[08:30] <allyourrejects> bjacob: don't worry about it. if there was a typo pushax might be right
[08:30] <allyourrejects> pushax: experienced that i guess ?
[08:31] <pushax> I'm using hardy heron here.  great step from 7.10
[08:31] <allyourrejects> I have a problem with my launcher menu
[08:31] <bjacob> allyourrejects: firmware files didn't change
[08:32] <allyourrejects> err  "System Menu"  applet
[08:32] <allyourrejects> when i select "Storage Media", it says malformed URL "media:/
[08:32] <allyourrejects> i guess its been renamed to  system:/media/
[08:32] <allyourrejects> works inside dolphin, just not in the System Menu applet
[08:33] <pushax> sound like you have been kdesu dolphin
[08:33] <allyourrejects> this is fresh install
[08:33] <allyourrejects> "home folder" is the only link in "System Menu" applet that works
[08:34] <pushax> hhehe.  don't you love it
[08:34] <jussi01> allyourrejects: are you on hardy?
[08:34] <allyourrejects> then i can use the dolphin selector on the left to select "Storage Media"
[08:34] <allyourrejects> jussi01: yeah, thats what pushax and I were talking about
[08:34] <allyourrejects> pushax: other than that, yes. very nice
[08:34] <pushax> allyourrejects: I though you said earlier you were on 7.10

[08:44] <pushax> allyourrejects: does the server kernel reduce feature on graphic desktop side?
[08:45] <allyourrejects> pushax: shouldn't make a difference really
[08:46] <allyourrejects> i would say that the some of the default scheduler stuff, and memory settings are setup for more serverish tasks. like about 4gb, and maybe no preemptive kernel
[08:46] <pushax> k.  I guess it's onyl differnt fron the get-go.  then it's upto what you install.

[09:35] <jussi01> pushax: you are missing /X11/

[09:36] <pushax> My mistake, I forget /X11   /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:37] <chrissy> is this a version ob kubuntu, like gutsy ?

[09:38] <pushax> Chrissy hardy heron is no offical and is considered unstable.  I use Hardy Heron version and it runs stable.  I wouldnt' suggest it if you want your comptuer for business though simply due to the status of it's release.
[09:38] <VilleVicious> How do I get superuser mode in dolphin
[09:38] <jussi01> chrissy: go with gutsy, as hardy can still have issues as its not yet finished. However, if you feel you can cope with the issues, then you can try hardy, but for stabiliy please go with gutsy for the momment
[09:39] <pushax> VilleVicious: kdesu dolphin
[09:39] <jussi01> VilleVicious: kdesudo  dolphin
[09:39] <chrissy> thx
[09:40] <pushax> VilleVicious: watch out though as in super user dolphin will try and does saves your settings as root.  later your user account wont be able to access to save.
[09:40] <pushax> VilleVicious: ok to do in Live mode, though
[09:42] <VilleVicious> it still gives ne the same error message
[09:43] <chrissy> how is the support for ati?
[09:43] <jussi01> chrissy: ok.
[09:44] <jussi01> as in it works
[09:44] <chrissy> so there shouldn't be any probs
[09:44] <jussi01> chrissy: ati makes it a little harder to put things like desktop effects on, but shouldnt be any major issues.
[09:44] <jussi01> which gfx card?
[09:45] <chrissy> 9600
[09:45] <chrissy> radeon 9600
[09:46] <jussi01> chrissy: hmmm, that needs fglrx driver. shouldnt be too hard to set up though
[09:47] <pushax> VilleVicious: make sure the directory you are mounting it to is root ownership.  then check the mount details.
[09:47] <pushax> VilleVicious: did you set your super user password with '#sudo passwd root'

[10:00] <hola> jussi01: ok sorry
[10:00] <hola> jussi01: it was a cut and paste
[10:01] <pushax> hola: A good start is to find out the chipset the cam uses.  or do goggle serches for others wiht your cam bandname and using ubunut or kubuntu
[10:01] <pushax> hola does it partially work or wont even detect?
[10:02] <xt828> a game i was running through wine crashed and now i can't change my desktop resolution from 800x600 - how can i fix this?
[10:03] <hola> pushax: i already try in all ways
[10:03] <hola> pushax: it is recognized only with lsusb
[10:03] <VilleVicious> where in kcontroll are the mounting tools
[10:03] <qiansan> holle
[10:03] <xt828> by can't, i mean i can go into system settings>monitor and display>admin mode and move the slider, but the resolution doesn't ever change
[10:04] <jussi01> xt828: have you tried restarting x?
[10:04] <pushax> hola: sometimes you can work things out by observing the kernel logs.  have you checked ksystemlog's kernel area?
[10:04] <VilleVicious> found it
[10:05] <jussi01> :)
[10:05] <xt828> jussi01: ctrl+alt+backspace?  if so, then yes
[10:05] <hola> pushax: of course
[10:06] <hola> pushax: /dev/video0 is not created
[10:06] <jussi01> xt828: did you have anything special in your xorg? or was it fairly standard?
[10:06] <xt828> standard iirc - using the restricted drivers for my nvidia card
[10:07] <jussi01> xt828: try in terminal: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:07] <pushax> hola: what's the brandname or the shipset of the camera?
[10:08] <VilleVicious> I have it now at mountpoint /media/tempmount/ but it is disabled how do I change that

[10:11] <juan> nop yet
[10:11] <juan> no prob if i istall on KDe english
[10:13] <pushax> juan shouldn't be.  just add the language files.
[10:13] <hola> pushax: there are a lot of link in this page. Which i have to refer?
[10:13] <juan> ok  ty
[10:14] <pushax> hola you'll have to do the leg work on that.  I noticed there was a sourceforge project for an eariler model
[10:15] <pushax> hola: narrower search  http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=com.ubuntu%3Aen-US%3Aunofficial&hs=Arx&q=%22Z-Star%22+%22linux%22+%22307b%22&btnG=Search&meta=
[10:16] <xt828> jussi01: is there a less complicated way to do it?  i don't know most of the stuff this is asking
[10:17] <jussi01> xt828: if you are unsure, just go with the default, I dont know most of that stuf either
[10:17] <hola> pushax: sorry im a begineer. What is leg work
[10:17] <pushax> hola: effort...   see this ; http://quilombo.wordpress.com/2008/02/02/zaapa-webcam-en-ubuntu-linux-710-gutsy-gibbon-2/
[10:17] <jussi01> xt828: you could also just unapply and then reapply the restricted drivers
[10:18] <hola> pushax: i already follow this guide in the past,,,,,but at the end the cam still to be not recognize..../dev/video is not created so the ma does not work
[10:18] <hola> pushax: i tried with all driver but this device is not created and i dont know why
[10:20] <pushax> hola: they talk about installing an older driver so that a newer one can be had.
[10:20] <pushax> hola: have you looked to see what modprobe module you ened to get it catered for?
[10:21] <hola> pushax: i istalled gspcav120071224.tar.gz but it does not work
[10:21] <pushax> hol: did the mamkign process all work?
[10:21] <pushax> hol: did the make process all work?
[10:22] <hola> pushax: if you have time for me, i can remake entire procedure and tell you step by step the result, is it fine?
[10:22] <pushax> hola.  ok.  I'm reading ont he side lines so it's not a bother.
[10:23] <hola> pushax: just a momnet i donwload again the driver
[10:24] <pushax> hola: the line "make sudo make install" should be "sudo make"  then wait then do the "sudo make install"
[10:25] <pushax> hola: try this first.  #sudo modprobe gspca
[10:25] <pushax> hola: maybe you already have support but just need to install the module.   Also search your packages in Adept for 'xserver' and see if there are xserver packs for camera.
[10:26] <hola> pushax: wait a menemt please
[10:28] <VilleVicious> I tried to mount the hd to /media/tempmount/ and it give s me the following error A
[10:28] <VilleVicious> n error occurred while enabling /media/tempmount/.
[10:28] <VilleVicious> The system reported: mount: /dev/sda3 already mounted or /media/tempmount/ busy
[10:28] <VilleVicious> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda3 is mounted on /media/tempmount
[10:28] <hola> pushax: ok i did meke install
[10:28] <pushax> <pushax> hola:  do the process without the cam plugged in.  also once all done do a "#discover --enable--all", thats after you plug it in
[10:29] <ubuntu_> Bonjour
[10:29] <pushax> hola: no errors?
[10:29] <hola> pushax: wait please. have i to install xserv from adpet?
[10:30] <VilleVicious> ok so I have the Hd mounted what fide I needed to look up
[10:30] <jussi01> VilleVicious: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the hdd
[10:30] <dueperdue> ciao
[10:30] <pushax> hola: no I was asking if you could find any camera/webcam packages in Adept.  when you search for "xserver"

[10:44] <pushax> hola: restart...
[10:44] <hola> pushax: what?
[10:44] <pushax> hola: restart your puter...
[10:45] <hola> pushax: if i restart my pc....gspca driver will not be load
[10:45] <llutz> Vhozard: what do you want to do? fstab is just a textfile, so use an editor to change it to your needs
[10:45] <jussi01> VilleVicious: do you have a second monitor?
[10:46] <pushax> hola: that's waht you ened to test agian. do a 'modprobe -l gspca*' can see if it stays
[10:46] <Vhozard> llutz, I know, but i fucked it up (i removed all UIDS and stuff)
[10:47] <llutz> Vhozard: why? ;)
[10:47] <hola> pushax: do you thinkd that at the next reast the /dev/video will be created?
[10:47] <ThomasD> okay, why when I want to uninstall KDE 4.0.2, it want do delete my kde3 installation to? using gutsy
[10:47] <Vhozard> llutz yeah, why? thats the question :)
[10:47] <pushax> hola: restarts can sometimes force a proper check on new items
[10:47] <administrateur> #ubuntu-fr
[10:48] <VilleVicious> pushax I replaced my xorg.conf with yours
[10:48] <llutz> Vhozard: "blkid" gives you the UUIDs of the partitions, just recontruct it by hand
[10:48] <Vhozard> ThomasD no it won't, just do: sudo apt-get remove kde4-core
[10:48] <hola> pushax: with modprobe -l gspca will be resisdent?
[10:48] <pushax> VilleVicious: jsut make sure it has really saved before restarting
[10:48] <Vhozard> llutz i will try that
[10:49] <pushax> VilleVicious: the trick is to make sure you have the right bit-plane, resolution, and freq-rate, when dealign with monitor installs
[10:49] <ThomasD> Vhozard: but now only kde4-core is deleted, what about the other packages?
[10:50] <pushax> hola: that command only lists.  it will show if the modules stayed in after the restart
[10:50] <Vhozard> ThomasD: sudo apt-get autoremove
[10:50] <ThomasD> Vhozard: that would only delete these packages: kdebase-workspace systemsettings-kde4 klipper-kde4
[10:50] <pushax> hola: if not then just reissue the modprobe line again.
[10:51] <hola> pushax: sorry, but i thinks that it will not stay
[10:51] <hola> pushax: probably it has to add in same configuration file
[10:51] <pushax> hola: you cna only test it since you have reinstalled.
[10:52] <pushax> hola: yes true you may need to add to the modiles conf
[10:52] <Vhozard> ThomasD open adept_manager and type kde4 and remove all packages
[10:52] <hola> pushax: why so you tell me that iit will stay in the next rest
[10:52] <hola> pushax: why so you tell me that iit will stay in the next restart
[10:52] <pushax> hola: module conf, but I was guessing the kernel would already have this as the article said 7.10 had parts of the support int he kernel
[10:52] <ThomasD> Vhozard: thats when it starts to take kde3 as dependency
=== holo is now known as horo
=== horo is now known as holo
[10:53] <pushax> hola: in fault finding you ahve to experience each stage to determine what is happening
[10:53] <pushax> hola: each stage of the path to fix the issue.
[10:54] <VilleVicious> It says I don\t have permission to write xorg.conf how do I get it?
[10:54] <Vhozard> ThomasD goto View changes (or sometging) and click on cancel changes for k3b
[10:54] <hola> pushax: ho cai i do that
[10:54] <pushax> hola: is sounds like you know what you're doing.  jsut add the module to your module area and then do the restart
[10:55] <hola> pushax: i think that without help i will not be able to do that
[10:55] <hola> pushax: thanks however
[10:56] <jussi01> VilleVicious: you need to open it as root
[10:57] <pushax> hola: np.  there maybe other issue why it's not working.  so you maybe doing all the right things but there maybe something broken else where.  you can only investigate and find out what's going on.
[10:58] <VilleVicious> how do i do that? type sudo kate and open it that way, or some other way?
[10:58] <Vhozard> VilleVicious no, type kdesu kate
[10:58] <hola> pushax: ok thk again
[10:58] <Vhozard> VilleVicious or for xorg, type: kdesu kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:00] <jussi01> VilleVicious: make sure you open the xorg from your hdd, not the live cd
[11:00] <ThomasD> Vhozard: It's kde4libs-bin that's being a bitch, when I delete that one, it wants to take, k3b , kubuntu-desktop, gwenvieuw and much more
[11:04] <VilleVicious> Ok now it is done, Ill try restarting,  brb hopefully
[11:05] <Vhozard> ThomasD I have the exact same problem. just leave it installed, its not that big a deal
[11:05] <pushax> I hope the differnet bus doesn't give VilleViciosu any probs.  Mines PCIe.
[11:06] <jussi01> pushax: hmmm... hopefully
[11:06] <ThomasD> Vhozard: yeah, but I want to compile kde4 from thrunk, and these packages will cause problems
[11:06] <ThomasD> trunk
[11:06] <pushax> jussi01: I told him to only copy the monitor area, but the way he talked he did the whole lot.
[11:07] <jussi01> we should have told him to log into terminal and do a: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[11:07] <jussi01> when he booted.
[11:08] <pushax> jussi01: there you go.   I'm no expert so..
[11:09] <pushax> jussi01: can one add to /etc a modprobe.conf and it will be read at startup?
[11:11] <jussi01> pushax: I _think_ so, cant quite remember, I ask mr google that one
[11:11] <pushax> jussi01: hehe np. I'll do the leg work on that
[11:12] <villevicious> No success
[11:13] <Vhozard> ThomasD why do you want to compile from trunk? are you living on the edge?
[11:14] <ThomasD> Vhozard: yes, I am ^^
[11:14] <ThomasD> Vhozard: want to compile amarok2 from trunk so I have no other choice
[11:15] <Vhozard> ThomasD oh, i understand
[11:15] <villevicious> now it just shows me the kubuntulogo and the loading bar but then it goes to non-graphical login
[11:15] <Vhozard> ThomasD i dont know then
[11:15] <pushax> villevicious: did you only copy the monitor are or the whole of my xorg.conf?
[11:15] <Vhozard> ThomasD i'm no pro! lol
[11:15] <villevicious> I copiend the whole thing
[11:16] <pushax> villevicious: I noticed there is a improtant difference in that mines PCIe and you'd have AGP 9600, woudln't you?
[11:16] <ThomasD> Vhozard: no problem ^^
[11:17] <pushax> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58973/  is your original
[11:17] <jussi01> villevicious: when you boot, do you get a terminal login?
[11:17] <villevicious> yes
[11:17] <Vhozard> ThomasD ok ^^
[11:17] <pushax> is mine.  jsut copy the "screen" and "monitor" sections
[11:17] <pushax> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58975/
[11:17] <jussi01> villevicious: if so, then boot, login and do: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[11:18] <jussi01> villevicious: that should get you a clean, new xorg.
[11:18] <villevicious> I'll try

[12:19] <^u^> !hardy | Dekans,
[12:19] <ubotwo> Dekans,: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS) | Due April 2008 | For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron
[12:19] <jussi01> Dekans: hardy support in #ubuntu+1
[12:19] <^u^> oops - there was meant to be a link to #ubuntu+1 for hardy quest in there Dekans
[12:21] <Dekans> thanks i did not know the chan
[12:22] <^u^> K
[12:26] <sivaji> i installed ubuntu in my  2 GB pendrive when i am trying to boot from pen drive i get error message like "no operation system is installed in pen drive"
=== sbucat is now known as imboscat
[12:29] <^u^> sivaji, a 2G pendrive is really about 1.9G and ubuntu takes up about 2.2G so...

[12:34] <JoshOvki> !ubotuisdead
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> That Pendrivelinux web site - has a lot of info on getting ubuntu on a pendrive.
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> i just toyed with slax last week. It installed real nicely to my usb thumbdrive
[12:42] <^u^> I must lead a sheltered life - I can't understand the attraction of an os on a usb stick...
[12:44] <llutz> ^u^: defined environment wherever you are (and are allowed to boot a pc from usb-stick)
[12:45] <^u^> llutz, I use a live cd and ssh for that - no limit to read/write etc
[12:46] <llutz> different people, different ways
[12:47] <^u^> it would be a boring place if everyone was the same :)
[12:48] <Dr_Willis> ^u^,  a 'system rescue' tool - is very handy.
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> ^u^,  or i got one for a 'geexbox media player' :) that i use also.
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> Specilized tools for special tasks.
[12:50] <^u^> Dr_Willis, with the read/write limits on a usb stick I thought a live cd was a better option - but obviously not for a :geebox media player"
[12:51] <^u^> *"
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> ^u^,   im not too worried about the life of a $15 usb stick. :)
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> Plus my thumbdrive actually is a little ittsy bitsy hard drive. :)
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> Its about the size of.. Hmm.. 1 inch x 2 inches..  or so,
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> a bit bigger then most - but it was on sale.
[12:52] <^u^> Dr_Willis, I have one - but have a large strap on it so i don't lose the bugger :)
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> I got a little sony micro-tiny vault also. about the size of a thumbnail :)
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> then i must have a dozen SD cards. Cant get my laptop to boot them however. :(

[13:21] <daffytheduck> Im after a banwidth limmiting tool on a per application or a per port basis can anyone help out Thanks
[13:21] <daffytheduck> Bandwidth
[13:21] <sigma_1234> those always had dodgy support. best to try it out and see for yourself
[13:21] <^u^> has the bot died?
[13:21] <daffytheduck> lol
[13:21] <catweazle> sammu: take rar
[13:21] <^u^> sammu, you need to have all the repositories enabled
[13:21] <stdin> sammu: make sure you have multiverse enabled https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[13:22] <catweazle> it's includes unrar
[13:22] <daffytheduck> bots dont die they are terminated
[13:22] <^u^> but their diodes malfunction
[13:22] <daffytheduck> lol
[13:22] <sigma_1234> stdin: did ubotu fall asleep again:)
[13:23] <gaE4> i installed amarok, but when i wanna play a mp3-file it says that amarok cant play mp3's and if i wanna install it, after installation it says, restart amarok to apply changes, when i restart it, it says cannot play mp3's^
[13:23] <sammu> amarok plays only .ogg in my comp
[13:23] <stdin> sigma_1234: it's just being strange, works in -offtopic for instance
[13:23] <nosrednaekim> gaE4: if you are on gutsy, run "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras"
[13:24] <daffytheduck> there should be a dialouge that adds mp3 support directly the first time amarok starts
[13:25] <gaE4> yeah ubuntu 7.10 - gutsy | i am new, Ubuntu not KUbuntu perhaps u should know
[13:25] <gaE4> but ubuntu told me to come here
[13:25] <nosrednaekim> gaE4: yup, that command should still work
[13:25] <daffytheduck> anyway can anyone help with my bandwidth problem im desperate here
[13:25] <gaE4> ok, ty
[13:28] <gaE4> ty, now it works
[13:29] <^u^> sammu, if you have all the repos enabled you can have mp3s etc playing

[13:57] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks  :-)
[13:58] <gundam_rx78nt1> !hi | BluesKaj
[13:58] <ubotu> Failed.
[13:58] <ubotwo> BluesKaj: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu!
[13:58] <ubotu> ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore
[13:59] <BluesKaj> hi gundam_rx78nt1...that's quite the handle :)
[13:59] <sMonk> On the package manager, where I originally d/l and installed VirtualBox, it's version 1.5.0 and the website has ver 1.5.6 I downloaded the 1.5.6Ubuntu.deb file, now if I install that with Gdebi will that "upgrade" my current one, or will I have to reinstall my systems again?
[13:59] <gundam_rx78nt1> my handle?  It's another way to say my realname if you know of the alternate name for that Gundam.
[14:00] <BluesKaj> no gundam,  it's the rx78nt1 that I wonder about :)
[14:01] <BluesKaj> just kidding of course , gundam_rx78nt1
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> sMonk,  you shouldent have to.
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> sMonk,  removing the older one 'shouldent' remnove the systems either.. the Purge option to remove  it MIGHT do so however.
[14:03] <gundam_rx78nt1> Well, the original Gundam was the RX-78. The NT1 was the New Type that replaced the original but it was nicknamed with my name.
[14:03] <gundam_rx78nt1> So I took the name for that.
[14:03] <sMonk> Dr_Willis: I just noticed that they have repositories list. I'll try adding that. see what happens
[14:03] <Dr_Willis> sMonk,  even better. :)
[14:03] <sMonk> that's what I thought :)
[14:06] <BluesKaj> aha , gundam_rx78nt1 ..I'm an old guy and not a gamer so I din't realize the meaning of your nick :P
[14:06] <sMonk> I'll let you know what happens
[14:06] <gundam_rx78nt1> No problem.  I'm still waiting for someone to ask me if it's my name... LOL.

[14:11] <maxym> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[14:11] <sMonk> now I'm getting an error,   E: /var/cache/apt/archives/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266%5fUbuntu%5fgutsy_i386.deb: trying to overwrite `/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/misc/vboxdrv.ko', which is also in package virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.22-14-generic
[14:12] <BluesKaj> sMonk, close your VB , then run the command
[14:12] <sMonk> it is closed
[14:12] <jussi01> maxym: so run the command there, with sudo in front
[14:13] <maxym> yess
[14:13] <BluesKaj> sMonk,ok run , sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[14:13] <maxym> sudo apt-get install
[14:13] <jussi01> maxym: no, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[14:13] <BluesKaj> jussi01, he already ran it
[14:13] <jussi01> oh, ok
[14:14] <BluesKaj> but he got errors
[14:14] <maxym> thank
[14:14] <sMonk> I think i got it. I went in and removed the ose packages, it wanted to remove the program, but not the source, so I remeoved the ose source and it installed
[14:15] <sMonk> it's running. Saved my installed systems too
[14:17] <BluesKaj> sMonk, what do you think of VB otherwise , do you find it useful ?
[14:18] <moope1> Hi, my 7.10 install is being a bit weird when it comes to say taking out the wired connection and swapping over to wireless or changing wireless connections say. It will report via knetwork manager that there is a connection but not actually route anything down it
[14:18] <sMonk> Very useful actually, I was frustrated at first, because you have to get your setup right the first time (ex, HD size, cdrom acess) but it works great
[14:19] <moope1> firefox is especially naff with this

[14:41] <heng> intelikey: it show does not exist
[14:42]  * intelikey doesn't see why "<heng> sdb is western digital, format in 1 whole hard disk" should have any partition table.  but assuming he meant one whole partition not one whole disk  then it shouldn't have extended partitions...

[14:44] <intelikey> heng i don't know what kind of screwy setyp you have on that disk.  so "if" you will use a pastebin and not flood this channel, do this for me. pastebin the output of#  cat /proc/partitions ;sudo fdisk -l ;mount

[14:54] <cpainchaud> had anyone noticed that amarok eats 10% CPU while idling ?
[14:54] <intelikey> sivaji assuming no other scsi devices    sudo mkfs.(desired format) /dev/sda
[14:54] <sivaji> intelikey GParted or QTParted cant display my pen drive
[14:55] <intelikey> sivaji you should check "mount" first and make sure that sda* is not mounted
[14:55] <sivaji> intelikey ok
[14:56] <intelikey> sivaji like this maybe#  mount | grep sda || sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda
[14:56] <intelikey> if it shows something mounted it wont touch the drive and you know you have work to do before you can format
[14:57] <sivaji> intelikey success
[14:57] <intelikey> tov
[14:58] <BluesKaj> cpainchaud, yes amarok, ktorrent and strigi are terrible cpu&memory hogs from most google reports ...how to fix is another question...I removed strigi (or turned off the daemon ) in "add remove programs" which seems to help speed somewhat
[14:58] <intelikey> sivaji you can manually mount after the fs is created with#  sudo mount -o umask=000 /dev/sda /mnt
[14:58] <BluesKaj> cpainchaud, if your not a Dolphin lover you can do the same for it.
=== ubuntu_ is now known as sailor_moon
[14:59] <cpainchaud> there is a problem with dolphin ?
[14:59] <BluesKaj> no , dolphin is fine , if you can stand it :)
[14:59] <sivaji> intelikey i can mount but i dont have permission to use that && i cant change the permission
[15:00] <intelikey> sivaji your newly created filesystem will then be accessable at /mnt    (note; that is a one time mount, the systems automounter should take up the slack thereafter)
[15:00] <sivaji> sivaji@dappyboy:~$ sudo chown sivaji '/media/pen' chown: changing ownership of `/media/pen': Operation not permitted

[15:09] <cpainchaud> its clean
[15:09] <intelikey> cpainchaud there is an #amarok channel iirc.  you might get better answers in there too.

[15:10] <QueBaza> same as in kontact?
[15:10] <jussi01> yes
[15:10] <QueBaza> can I import old outlook pst-files to it?
[15:10] <intelikey> sivaji i saw that the first time you posted it.   but nothing i can do about that.    it could be any number of things causing that.   not the least of those being some *buntu auto-detect/mount crap...

[15:11] <intelikey> just sujestions for troubleshooting.
[15:11] <BluesKaj> kmail is quite good , I used T-bird for yrs til it no longer opened a browser when trying to use links in the email text.
[15:12] <sivaji> intelikey ok thanks
[15:12] <intelikey> i'm out.   shalom real people.
[15:12] <BluesKaj> c ya intelikey
[15:12] <QueBaza> I looked the kmail and it looks nice. How about calendar on kmail?
[15:12] <QueBaza> working or useless?
[15:12] <jussi01> QueBaza: the calender works well for me, i guess its a try it and see thing
[15:13] <QueBaza> guess your right about that
[15:13] <BluesKaj> QueBaza, it's all part of the kontact package
[15:13] <jussi01> QueBaza: if you just want to chat, try #kubuntu-offtopic :)
[15:14] <QueBaza> oh, sorry. Is this just for help-section?
[15:14] <jussi01> yeah
[15:15] <QueBaza> sorry about that. I still would need help to get old outlook emails to kontact?
[15:15] <jussi01> QueBaza: your welcome to stick around. I just dont know the answer, sorry
[15:16] <QueBaza> :)
[15:16] <JoshOvki> how do i find out what driver is being used on my wifi device?
[15:17] <BluesKaj> QueBaza, , if you save your contact list as a ldif file then you transfer it from windows to kmail if you have windows access
[15:18] <QueBaza> ldif ? From outlook?
=== ubuntu_ is now known as affar22
[15:19] <BluesKaj> QueBaza, save the file to your /home/user directory

[15:19] <QueBaza> My windows is on old HD, and it's on the table. PST-files are on usb-stick
[15:20] <BluesKaj> PST?
[15:20] <QueBaza> I'm leaving windows for good. All I have is pst-files.
[15:20] <QueBaza> yes. pst-file is outlook archive file
[15:23] <BluesKaj> ok, if it contains your contact list , then you should be able to "save as" ldif so kmail can accept it
[15:24] <QueBaza> I will have to look that
[15:29] <QueBaza> thanks
[15:29] <Fat-head> heya why doesnt kmix recognise my creative xmod ?
[15:31] <PhilRod> presumably because the underlying sound system (alsa I guess) doesn't recognise it
[15:34] <Fat-head> yay i solved it, i had to quit kmix and execute it again
[15:34] <Fat-head> no alsa did recognise it

=== blindfish is now known as blindfish_
[15:36] <BluesKaj> hmm, something changed with opening kde apps. If I have konq minimized the apps mininmize to the tray as well. This is annoying , been hunting in the konq settings for a fix , but unable to find one
[15:37] <PhilRod> do you mean all apps minimize to the tray?
[15:38] <BluesKaj> just kde apps
[15:39] <Jucato> BluesKaj: using KWin?
[15:39] <administrateur> #ubuntu-fr
[15:42] <BluesKaj> PhilRod, only when konq is in use and minimized
[15:43] <Fat-head> has flash been fixed in the repos? if not where can i download the fix
[15:44] <Fat-head> ?
[15:47] <PhilRod> Fat-head: I no longer get nspluginviewer crashes, so I guess it's fixed. Although I did install gnash, so maybe that's it
[15:48] <Fat-head> philrod but did u install flashplugin non-free?
[15:48] <Fat-head> gnash?
[15:48] <Fat-head> is it good?
[15:49] <cpainchaud> official flahs plugin eats so much CPU even when its doing nothing :/
[15:50] <Fat-head> oh
[15:51] <icewaterman> hm, xvinfo crashes on amd64
[15:52] <Fat-head> but before when i used the official flash plugin on u ubuntu with firefox i got crashes once in a while. now im on kubuntu with konqueror will i still get those crashes? btw does konqueror have any plugin like NOSCRIPT for firefox?
[15:52] <PhilRod> I think you can disable plugins on a site-by-site basis
[15:53] <Fat-head> oh
[15:53] <cuznt> i would not use konqueror
[15:54] <Fat-head> what would u recommend?
[15:54] <cuznt> i use iceape
[15:54] <Fat-head> mozilla?
[15:54] <cuznt> yes
[15:54] <cuznt> any mozilla
[15:54] <Fat-head> iceape?
[15:55] <cuznt> and if you use synaptic package manager you can right click to see recommended installs
[15:55] <Fat-head> well mozilla is faster than konqueror but doesnt konqueror integrate well with kubuntu and kde?
[15:55] <cuznt> i am gutsy
[15:55] <cuznt> kubuntu
[15:55] <cuznt> iceape is a mozilla browser e-mail client
[15:55] <cuznt> etc
[15:55] <Fat-head> oh
[15:55] <cuznt> works with my flash very well
[15:56] <Regital_> dpddo
[15:56] <Regital_> hllo
[15:56] <cuznt> i am not quite sure if aptitude package manager recommends any librarys to install
[15:56] <Fat-head> but how did you install flash?
[15:57] <BluesKaj> !flash
[15:57] <ubotwo> 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

[17:16] <BluesKaj> oops movie isn't available
[17:16] <BluesKaj> I'm losing my windows chops too :)
[17:16] <DreadKnight> Flosoft: you can edit the sources.list file and replace gutsy with hardy, save... then run the command...
[17:16] <Daisuke_Ido> i'll have to create a partition for it using *buntu's livecd first, right
[17:16] <Flosoft> right
[17:16] <DreadKnight> Flosoft: it's how i remember :P
[17:16] <Flosoft> but that doesn't do the upgrade via the system update of ubuntu
[17:17] <DreadKnight> Flosoft: when you do an upgrade like from gutsy to hardy, a special upgrade manager application is launch
[17:17] <DreadKnight> launched*
[17:17] <Flosoft> let me try :)
[17:17] <bubba> hi, why mplayer cant play dvds in gutsy
[17:18] <BluesKaj> Daisuke_Ido, yeah, and that can take some time. Make sure you partiton the drive to put the ntfs file system first.
[17:18] <Arwen> bubba, for the same reason it never could
[17:18] <Arwen> you needs libdvdcss
[17:18] <DreadKnight> bubba: i think you need a codec first for dvds
[17:18] <bubba> arwen.mplayer can play dvd
[17:19] <bubba> dreadknight...i have libdvdcss
[17:19] <Arwen> Read. What. I. Write. Before. You. Make. Stupid. Replies. Ok?
[17:20] <DreadKnight> bubba: i guess that's a modification, and may have dvd support compared to mplayer, just my guess
[17:20] <Arwen> #mplayer, and explaining what it does instead would be a good start
[17:20] <bubba> what stupid replies u talking about
[17:20] <bubba> i just said mplayer plays dvds
[17:20] <DreadKnight> oh lol, "arwen.mplayer" xD
[17:20] <bubba> nothing wrong with that lol
[17:20] <Arwen> no, you didn't read "you need libdvdcss" which was the follow up to "for the same reason it never could"
[17:20] <Flosoft> this is the one I am looking for: http://kubuntu.org/images/feisty_to_gutsy.png
[17:20] <BluesKaj> Daisuke_Ido, for example ,h/sda1 is windows, h/sda2 is ubuntu , h/sda3 is linux swap
[17:21] <Daisuke_Ido> hmm...  can i change the designation though?
[17:21] <bubba> its ok arwen no big deal
[17:21] <bubba> i have libdvdcss
[17:21] <Daisuke_Ido> because ubuntu's isntalled on sda1
[17:21] <Daisuke_Ido> installed*
[17:21] <BluesKaj> Daisuke_Ido, designation ?
[17:21] <DreadKnight> Flosoft: that's the one :)
[17:21] <Daisuke_Ido> BluesKaj?
[17:21] <ForgeAus> wow it feels so much like having Konqueror in a window now
[17:21] <DreadKnight> Flosoft: as far as i know that's the only way :P
[17:21] <Flosoft> well .. I don't get it :)
[17:23] <bubba> still i cant play it...kafeine plays very slowly :(
[17:23] <Flosoft> I replaced my sources.list with hardy
[17:24] <Daisuke_Ido> as in primary/logical?
[17:24] <Flosoft> and now I can upgrade everything with the normal update manager
[17:24] <Daisuke_Ido> oh yes
[17:24] <Flosoft> but not the distribution upgrade
[17:24] <Daisuke_Ido> nevermind.  you were asking ME.
[17:24] <DreadKnight> Flosoft: you get administrative rights and edit sources.list, replacing gutsy with hardy; save, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[17:24] <BluesKaj> !partition
[17:24] <ubotwo> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[17:24] <Daisuke_Ido> yes, ubuntu's installed on sda1, if i resize and create a partition before that, it would still be considered sda2
[17:28] <Flosoft> DreadKnight: well yeah, but that doesn't give me the Distribution Upgrade Wizard
[17:29] <Flosoft> and just updates the installed packages

[18:35] <marcondes> somebody help me?
[18:35] <intelikey> not without more information  no.
[18:35] <marcondes> sure
[18:36] <derdui_> does anybody know why localhost:631 isnt reachable.... the same is with the cupsclient
[18:36] <marcondes> my kubuntu gutsy don have sound
[18:36] <swatto> what is kubuntu based on please?
[18:38] <intelikey> swatto debian
[18:38] <rysiek|pl> swatto: ubuntu
[18:38] <intelikey> rysiek|pl kubuntu is ubuntu
[18:38] <rysiek|pl> swatto: and ubuntu is based on debian
[18:38] <swatto> thanks
[18:38] <rysiek|pl> intelikey: depends on the POV
[18:39] <marcondes> i dont know what to do with the sound
[18:39] <intelikey> point of view ?    no.   *buntu is *buntu is *buntu
[18:39] <intelikey> !sound | marcondes maybe have a look here if you haven't yet
[18:39] <ubotwo> marcondes maybe have a look here if you haven't yet: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[18:40] <rysiek|pl> intelikey: under the hood they are one and the same system, but you can show Kubuntu to a long-time ubuntu user (I mean a "normal user", as my grandpa) and he won't know what to do with it
[18:40] <swatto> is it possible to add packages using source lists from debian-multimedia.com?
[18:40] <rysiek|pl> swatto: possible - yes, good idea - nope
[18:41] <swatto> ah ok
[18:41] <Jussio1> !debian
[18:41] <ubotwo> Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[18:41] <Jussio1> see the last bit
[18:41] <marcondes> ok. chekin...
[18:41] <rysiek|pl> swatto: ubuntu differs a bit from debian, and while 90% of time things will work AOK, you mnight get some strange problems with the remnant 10%
[18:41] <rysiek|pl> *might
[18:41] <swatto> ah ok ill leave it then
[18:42] <intelikey> and updates/upgrades are often a mess if you do add non-buntu repos swatto
[18:43] <marcondes> thancks people
[18:43] <marcondes> ill be back later
[18:43] <intelikey> ok
[18:46] <intelikey> swatto in a case where one wants to try a package from some "outside" repo i would sujest simply downloading the one package and using dpkg -i package.deb ;aptitude -f install     and be sure to make a note of the package name incase problems arise later on.
[18:46] <swatto> ok - thanks intelikey :)
[18:47] <intelikey> much safer than adding a forign repo
[18:47] <intelikey> while still not "the ubuntu way"
[18:48] <intelikey> swatto also of note; any FOSS could be built from source within your ubuntu system which should also be an acceptable way.

[19:29] <intelikey> if you are binary, you don't exist...
[19:29] <intelikey> all 0's
[19:30] <intelikey> sourcemaker the "kernel panic" should display the reason
[19:30] <sourcemaker> intelikey: no...  it doesn't... the screen freezes
[19:30] <sourcemaker> intelikey: there is no message
[19:31] <intelikey> sourcemaker then you have to "eliminate" all the preceding events    "process of" kind of thing...
[19:32] <intelikey> i.e. there can not be any log of a kernel panic because of it's very nature.
[19:32] <sourcemaker> intelikey: how can I do that... I am playing the game.. and "boom"... the pc freezes
[19:32] <sourcemaker> and I can't reproduce that....
[19:33] <sourcemaker> sometimes... I am playing 2 hours without any problem or the pc crashs after 5 minutes
[19:33] <intelikey> sourcemaker you could setup a trace that will log the output and see what it's doing just before it panics  but it won't be very acurate unless you mount your fs that the log will be on as "sync"
[19:34] <sourcemaker> intelikey: ok
[19:34] <intelikey> and 2 hours of even strace will be huge.  not to even consider ltrace
[19:35] <sourcemaker> intelikey: need I recompile the kernel for debug ?
[19:35] <intelikey> not sure that will even help.    but it might.

[19:44] <intelikey> stdin so the id_dsa is the only one that you don't want the world reading ???
[19:45] <stdin> intelikey: yeah, but the ~/.ssh should be 700 anyway
[19:45] <stdin> I think ssh may even error out if it's not 700 (not sure)

[19:51] <stdin> s/what what/what way/
[19:51] <draik> There was a folder I was trying to delete from my external HDD. I wasn't able to because of a "file". I went into my Win partition and I was able to remove the folder. What was I doing wrong?

[19:52] <draik> The startup/shutdown audio files.
[19:52] <secleinteer> does the time not automatically change for dst?

[19:52] <intelikey> stdin kindof an admins key for all boxes, type thing.    wish me luck,  i may need it.
[19:52] <draik> stdin: In a sense that I wonder if maybe there is something similar within Kubuntu. Actual voices rather than the chime-sounding themes.
[19:52] <stdin> intelikey: good luck :)
[19:53] <intelikey> :)     ty
[19:53] <stdin> draik: you'd have to ask the people that make knoppix where they store the sounds
[19:53] <sourcemaker> what does this firewall message mean: block SPT=80 DPT=2782?
[19:53] <draik> Thanks nuxil. I will look into that next time. But the interesting thing is that there weren't any files. They were just empty folders.
[19:53] <secleinteer> nvm
[19:53] <stdin> draik: XDG directory is /usr/share/sounds for system sounds though
[19:53] <draik> Is there anything similar within Kubuntu?
[19:54] <intelikey> draik you could use festival and write talking messages for everything...  or record them your self
[19:54] <nuxil> draik, it doesnt matter if they are empty or not. you must have right premissions to delete a dir

[19:58] <nuxil> chmod -x /etc/init.d/kdm
[19:58] <intelikey> errors for me
[19:58] <nuxil> intelikey, what version?
[19:58] <intelikey> GNU find version 4.2.27
[19:58] <slougi> nuxil: that's not a really clean solution though is it? or is that the official way to disable init scripts.
[19:58] <intelikey> from the LTS
[19:59] <nuxil> GNU find version 4.2.31
[19:59] <valeriyk> slougi sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
[19:59] <valeriyk> does that work?
[19:59] <intelikey> slougi the official way is   man update-rc.d
[19:59] <slougi> intelikey: thank you
[19:59] <slougi> valeriyk: that's one-time-only
[20:01] <intelikey> nuxil either way,   it's simply better form to supply the base path to find than to cd to the base path and call find there.    simply better form
[20:01] <stdin> less typing too
[20:01] <nuxil> intelikey, yea i agree
[20:02] <nuxil> slougi, official way? you do it the way that works best for you,
[20:02] <intelikey> yes and i would not sujest /  but /usr so that you don't search /dev/ and /proc/  for instance.
[20:02] <nuxil> slougi, if you need kdm again you can run command with +x instead
[20:02] <draik_> Sorry about that. DSL kicks me off when a call enters.
[20:02] <draik_> intelikey: Something about festival. Is that like espeak?
[20:02] <slougi> nuxil: yeah or just tell rc-update.d to reinstall the symlinks in the rc.d dirs
[20:03] <valeriyk> does anyone know how I can make my USB microphone(logtech webcam) be mixed through my actual sound card's capture input?
[20:03] <intelikey> draik it's a text to speach application    i think   ksayit uses it.
[20:03] <valeriyk> does that make sense?
=== draik_ is now known as draik
[20:04] <intelikey> echo "anything you want here" | festival --tts
[20:04] <draik> intelikey: Ok
[20:04] <sourcemaker> I have the following entries in my firewall log... what does this mean? "proxyscan.freenode.net" ?
[20:04] <draik> espeak "anything you want here"
[20:04] <draik> Then it's spoken aloud.
[20:04] <intelikey> draik i also mentioned that you might want to record the standard messages yourself.
[20:05] <nuxil> intelikey, other way to run it is : echo "(SayText \"boo\")" | festival
[20:06] <intelikey> nuxil or have it read a file.   or convert speach to text...
[20:06] <valeriyk> how do I combine both my mixers into one?
[20:06] <nuxil> yep.

[20:11] <Regital> draik: yeah... you left
[20:11] <intelikey> -:- SignOff draik: #kubuntu (Nick collision from services.)
[20:12] <draik> Thanks. This DSL is really getting on my nerves
[20:12] <intelikey> ^ that means you "ghosted" your self
[20:12] <slougi> all right, thanks for the help guys!
[20:12] <draik> How so?
[20:12] <intelikey> draik that's what the message is saying.   -:- SignOff draik: #kubuntu (Nick collision from services.)
[20:13] <intelikey> says you told nickserv to kill your nickname so you could use it again.
[20:13] <draik> intelikey: How would I do that?
[20:13] <draik> Right. That I did, but I mean prior to that
[20:13] <intelikey> draik there is no prior to that.
[20:13] <draik> Then I guess it was a hiccup on my end
[20:14] <draik> Everything went blank
[20:14] <intelikey> if you had to "ghost" your nick then you didn't sign off

[20:42] <holx> without harming the stuff on the HD*
[20:43] <intelikey> holx yes xorg is often fixed from the command line  "console"   shouldn't be any challange to an old linux hand
[20:43] <holx> he said he was changing resolution and then it would'nt start again
[20:43] <intelikey> !nv | holx see if any of this helps
[20:43] <ubotwo> holx see if any of this helps: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[20:43] <holx> it hangs after the startup loading bar
[20:44] <intelikey> so start in single user mode.
[20:44] <Regital> hmm
[20:44] <intelikey> or boot with "nosplash vga=normal"
[20:44] <Regital> is it illegal to use lets say your neighbours wlan if its unprotected?
[20:45] <intelikey> Regital only with permission.
[20:45] <Regital> ok

[20:46] <intelikey> holo should be in main i though
[20:47] <holo> intelikey: i don't find any image here
[20:47] <holx> how do I change boot settings?
[20:47] <holo> holx: what do you mean by boot?
[20:47] <holo> kernel parameters?
[20:47] <intelikey> holo you are looking for "kernel-*" aren't you?

[20:50] <holx> will try'
[20:50] <holo> intelikey: sorry, linux-image
[20:50] <intelikey> holo no.  2.6 is linux-  2.4 is kernel-
[20:50] <holo> holx: to configure at boot time, you just have to press "e" under the kernel entry to edit
[20:51] <holo> intelikey: now that's non-intuitive.. i should be pissed off :)
[20:51] <holo> intelikey: thanks
[20:51] <holx> ah ok
[20:51] <intelikey> holo  yeah   i don't know why they changed the name   but they did.
[20:52] <holo> intelikey: O.o I still don't find
[20:53] <holx> so the nosplash vga=normal is a boot argument?
[20:53] <holo> holx: notice that changes in kernel parameters at boot time don't get saved to the next boot
[20:53] <holo> holx: yes, something you put in the load kernel line
[20:53] <intelikey> holx yes.
[20:54] <intelikey> !find kernel-image-2.4.27
[20:54] <holx> so kernel blablablabla nosplash vga=normal?
[20:54] <ubotwo> File kernel-image-2.4.27 found in sh:, apt-file:, command, not, found
[20:54] <sourcemaker> my kernel panics are not logged to the system log... what's wrong?
[20:54] <intelikey> holx yes but be sure to change the "splash"   to "nosplash"  not just add the new one.
=== ubuntu__ is now known as matteo2
[20:54] <holo> intelikey: ok, I don't have it. entering panic mode
[20:55] <intelikey> sourcemaker they can't be.
[20:55] <sourcemaker> intelikey: so.. how can I find the reason?
[20:55] <intelikey> sourcemaker i told you that already.   you can't go writing things from a paniced kernel.
[20:55] <intelikey> it's not safe.
[20:55] <holo> intelikey: can you confirm the repo it comes from? for example with apt-cache show
[20:56] <holo> sourcemaker: install sysvconfig and enable that
[20:56] <intelikey> sourcemaker so there is no way to save data after the instance of panic     period
[20:56] <holx> yep, booting now
[20:56] <holo> sourcemaker: it could also be that it is disabled in the kernel, so a new kernel would be the solution
[20:57] <holx> Sorry, if I annoy you with regular stupid questions like this, I am still fairly new to linux
[20:57] <holo> holx: no worries, at least with me
[20:57] <holo> intelikey: are you using gutsy?
[20:58] <holx> don't remember, which version is on this one
[20:58] <holx> one of hte older ones had 6.06
[20:58] <sourcemaker> intelikey: why isn't there a bluescreen like windows 95 :-) So that I can read the crash dump
[20:58] <derdui_> how do i finde out which usb-ports are used, and whats the user is?
[20:58] <intelikey> holo ok you are correct  it's universe.   http://us.archive.ubuntu.com dapper/universe Packages
[20:59] <holo> sourcemaker: there are screens, but they are black
[20:59] <intelikey> that was   apt-cache policy for  kernel-image-2.4.27-2-386
[20:59] <holo> intelikey: oh I see, not only it is universe which i have enabled but is also not available in gutsy
[20:59] <holo> but it is in dapper
[20:59] <intelikey> derdui_ lsusb
[20:59] <holo> intelikey: ok, thanks.. i will put dapper repo here, at least temporarily
[21:00] <derdui_> thanks intelikey
[21:00] <intelikey> holo i was trying to get the bot to confirm or disprove that.
[21:00] <intelikey> !find kernel-image-2.4

[23:00] <jbovalley_> hello all
[23:01] <jbovalley_> can anyone help with a mce install ?
[23:01] <anom01y> is it ok to create a partition as a ext3, and then format as a ext2 ?
[23:01] <anom01y> because qtparted allows you to do this
[23:02] <jbovalley_> i have been following the instructions on how to using kubuntu but i got stuck
[23:02] <jbovalley_> i installed Kubuntu , which works great but now i can't get the MCE installed
[23:02] <Arwen> argh, why is there no ext2 defragmenter?
[23:02] <Arwen> this is getting f***ing ridiculous... 50% fragmented
[23:02] <oloughlin75> jbovalley_: MCE as Windows Media Center Edition?
[23:03] <jbovalley_> no the linux mce
[23:03] <oloughlin75> ah, never used it before
[23:03] <jbovalley_> 710 beta 4
[23:03] <jbovalley_> oh ok
[23:04] <Boohbah> what is a 'linux mce'?
[23:04] <jbovalley_> its a free media center that runs on linux
[23:05] <jbovalley_> does anyone in here knows anything about installing Linux MCE  on Kubuntu ?
[23:06] <oloughlin75> !mce
[23:06] <ubotwo> How should I know?
[23:08] <anom01y> is it ok to create a partition as a ext3, and then format as a ext2 ?
[23:11] <Regital> does anyone know if creative labs sound blaster x-fi extreme audio is supported in linux yet?
[23:11] <Regital> cause i can´t find anything online
[23:12] <Dr_Willis> Regital,  last i looked Creative had released 64bit ONLY drivers for it.
[23:12] <Dr_Willis> Regital,  im really dissapointed in creatives linux support for that thing. they blame Vista. :) they had to shift manpower to fixing the vista drivers.. so  let the linux work slide.
[23:13] <crxyem> I just upgraded from 6.10 > 7.04 > 7.10, everything seems to be running just fine other than high processor loads
[23:13] <Boohbah> http://www.linuxmce.org/ ?
[23:14] <Dr_Willis> Boohbah, ??
[23:15] <Regital> Dr_Willis: so theres no drivers for 32bit?
[23:18] <Dr_Willis> Regital,  last i looked.. No.

[23:41] <matt___> Building dependency tree
[23:41] <matt___> Reading state information... Done
[23:41] <matt___> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[23:41] <matt___> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[23:41] <matt___> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[23:41] <matt___> or been moved out of Incoming.
[23:41] <matt___> Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
[23:41] <matt___> the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
[23:42] <matt___> that package should be filed.
[23:42] <matt___> The following information may help to resolve the situation:
[23:42] <matt___> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[23:42] <matt___>   amarok: Depends: amarok-xine but it is not going to be installed or
[23:42] <matt___>                    amarok-engine
[23:42] <matt___> i get that message when trying to install amarok.
[23:42] <matt___> i've been fooling around with it a while, now i messed up something...
[23:42] <matt___> how can i fix it?
[23:43] <LjL> !paste | matt___
[23:43] <ubotwo> matt___: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic)
[23:43] <LjL> matt___: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[23:44] <matt___> LjL: ok, sorry, will next time...
[23:45] <matt___> LjL: but you have a clue where to start with this?
[23:45] <Dr_Willis> it also pays to edit your pastes a little we  need all the info :)
[23:45] <LjL> matt___: why don't you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[23:45] <Dr_Willis> matt___,  i would say do a 'update' and 'upgrade' then try installing again. for starters.
[23:45] <matt___> Dr_Willis: already tried...
[23:45] <matt___> LjL: it's fine, but ok.
[23:46] <LjL> matt___: it's fine..?

[23:48] <matt___> should i have pastbinned that?
[23:49] <LjL> matt___: yeah, would have been better. anyway try installing it explicitly with sudo apt-get install amarok-xine
[23:49] <LjL> and see what it complains about

[23:53] <matt___> LjL: fixed it, i removed libxine1
[23:53] <LjL> matt___: libxine1 was installed?
[23:53] <matt___> LjL: yes :??? so do you know the easiest way to setup libgpod .60 to use with an ipod classic?
[23:54] <LjL> matt___: no idea about that
[23:54] <matt___> LjL: ok...thanks.
