Today, i mean, now, i tried to run the live cd, i tried Kubuntu, Ubuntu and Xubuntu, and after choosing Start or Instal..., the following screen is showed: [01:19] BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-5ubuntu7) Built-in shell (ash [01:19] Enter 'help'for a list of built-in commands. [01:19] (initramfs)_ [01:20] (initramfs)_ means a command line where i can type the command help, or others. [01:20] as with kubuntu, the same thing happend with ubuntu and xubuntu. [01:34] is there a character map in KDE? [01:46] so yeah....the creator of the weather channel is, or is thinking about, sueing al gore for global warming fraud [02:02] Hey guys. What's up? === rt is now known as red_tear [02:06] icq.de [02:07] I installed a newer version of pidgin over an existing version, and the command "pidgin" still runs the old version. How do I change it? [02:20] hello i keep hitting some key combination that kicks me back to the log in screen and i cant figgure it out. anyone got a clue what combination it is? [02:22] Ctrl+Alt+Backspace restarts the X server, effectively closing down KDE and restarting to the login screen [02:24] can i set a other directory to be my home directory? [02:24] humm... cause it happens more when i'm holding shift (to capitalize something) then backspace to undo a typeing error. (which happens alot) maybe i hit ctrl alt in the process is there a way to disable that its really annoying [02:24] red_tear: yes, man usermod [02:24] thx hydrogen [02:25] isa268[FAN]: there is that shortcut too. ctrl+alt+backspace isn't really "log out", as it really kills the X server. (so it's a dirty restart so to speak) [02:25] and by dirty he means, its similar to starting windows, taking off your computers case cover, and slamming the motherboard with a ball-peen hammer [02:26] hydrogen: although ctrl+alt+backspace guarantees you'll still have a working computer :) [02:27] well i just tested it :) its shift+backspace [02:27] its shift+backspace with compiz [02:27] because compiz is shift+stupid [02:27] or xgl [02:27] actualyl [02:27] not compiz [02:27] Jucato, not true [02:28] yes im running compiz [02:28] it won't work if you kernel paniced [02:29] Arwen: but you won't have a shattered mobo [02:29] heh [02:30] * Jucato wonders why restarting X would affect the kernel... [02:30] Jucato, bad drm drivers [02:30] and if you kernel paniced *before* [02:31] if your kernel panicked before then no key-combo will matter [02:32] all right thanks guys i'll just try not holding shift while backspacing in the future [02:36] can i install yum in kubuntu? [02:37] O.o [02:37] why would you want to? [02:37] y would you want to? isnt adept or synaptic better [02:38] (it has nothing to do with Adept or Synaptic though. at least not directly) [02:38] matt__, you could. But it wouldn't be Kubuntu any more. [02:38] 'y' is not a word in the English language, and I should know, I'm English [02:38] im used yo yum [02:38] how to use apt-get? [02:38] !apt [02:38] i thought yum was redhats packet manager [02:38] APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) [02:42] can kubuntu install rpms? [02:42] yes, but not recommended. rpms are not debs (and vice versa) for a reason [02:42] not directly [02:42] ok can anybody tell me which files exactly i need to get my old wallet and firefox settings? becouse i now changed the home directory to the one i was using befor the reinstall and got my wallet and firefox settings (like saved passwords) but now got some problems i got before the reinstall of kubuntu again...^^ [02:42] !rpm | matt__ [02:42] matt__: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) [02:43] ahh [02:43] so how would i install java [02:43] !java [02:43] To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) or earlier. [02:44] wow ubuntu is much harder than fedora [02:47] Red_Tear: for firefox: ~/.mozilla/firefox for for wallet you can either copy the kwallet files from ~/.kde/share/apps and ~/.kde/share/config manually or just copy all of ~/.kde [02:48] is vlc player supported on kubuntu? [02:49] yes, it's in universe [02:49] matt__: why would it be harder? [02:49] umm i guess im just used to it [02:50] that's the issue. not the distro. [02:50] how do i install repositories? [02:50] how would you install something in fedora? do the same in Kubuntu, just substitute the tools [02:50] you don't need to. Java and VLC are in the default repositories already [02:50] yea. [02:51] install the package "Kubuntu Restricted Extras" to get Java, Flash, codec for MP3, AVI, etc. (no WMV/WMA and encrypted DVD's though). [02:51] use adept, search for vlc and install the package or use apt-get and do "sudo apt-get install vlc" (yes, it's *that* easy) [02:52] it's the same if you used PIRUT or yum (without having to add a repository to get it) [02:52] i have to type sudo everytime? [02:52] i cant just write apt-get install [02:52] !sudo [02:52] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. [02:52] you're installing as root, you need sudo [02:53] what about "su" [02:53] and then password [02:53] there is no root password [02:53] use "sudo -i" to get a root shell [02:53] you can use "sudo -i" to login to a sudo shell [02:53] * stdin wins [02:53] and it's nearly 3am :) [02:53] please see the link above to learn more about sudo [02:53] how can i dcc with konversation [02:53] * Jucato doesn't really care who wins...

[02:56] matt__: what version of kubuntu do you have [02:56] umm the latest one [02:56] and why are you using sudo when you are root? ;) [02:57] either way i receive the same message [02:57] matt__: open adept up, go to Adept -> Manager Repositories and check all the boxes, then click "Fetch Updates" [02:57] then you can either install VLC via adept or use apt-get (after closing Adept) [02:58] all the boxes on top right? like maintainer etc? [02:58] no, when you're in Adept go to the Adept menu and click on Manage Repositories [02:59] then you'll get another window with some tabs [03:00] kk [03:00] should i leave it as main server? [03:00] you should select them all (the "sources" one is optional) [03:00] you can choose a local server if you want, or the main one [03:00] thanks alot [03:01] im updating them right now [03:01] np :) [03:02] so everysoftware is oon those repos?

[03:22] well i just downloaded all the parts of beryl [03:22] why are you using beryl? [03:22] is there something better? [03:22] yes let me look up the how to for it [03:22] one second [03:22] beryl is practically dead. it has merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion [03:22] compiz fusion is what you want [03:23] !compiz | naccis [03:23] naccis: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion [03:23] wow sweet ill check that thanks [03:23] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=601310 [03:23] I used that as well and that worked brilliantly [03:24] what graphics card do you have? [03:24] If I'm not mistaken: beryl was a fork of compiz that proved to be more powerful than the latter. Then, beryl was merged back into compiz, and community-supported plugins were deemed "compiz-fusion". [03:24] ya i think it was something like that [03:25] intel 945 [03:25] laptop [03:26] that should work [03:26] I think [03:26] it might be a tad slow [03:26] hey while i got ya here any thoughts why warcraft crashes my system periodically? [03:26] MrJoey: beryl forked from compiz. the two re-merged forming compiz-fusion. beryl plugins have become part of compiz-extras [03:27] warcraft as in WoW? I have no idea re you using the opengl stuff? [03:27] yeah... [03:27] thats ok [03:27] ill figure that one out [03:27] I thought compiz-fusion was some plugins and compiz was part of the merge too. [03:28] but do you guys know of any working joystiick to mouse progs [03:28] So are you saying 'compiz-fusion' contains a different executable for compiz than 'compiz' does? [03:28] i think it has different extensions for it [03:28] sorry so many questions but ive been struggleing all day [03:28] but pretty much yes [03:29] compiz-fusion is the name of the project afaik [03:29] I think I did have to install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra to get more plugins like enhanced zoom [03:29] Thanks for the info guys [03:29] what is your guys' favorite compiz plugin? [03:29] ah wait, it was beryl and compiz-extras that was merged. so beryl is in compiz-extras.. anyway... [03:30] discussion for #compiz-fusion not here ;) [03:31] Okay, so compiz and beryl merged to become Red Hat, and the squirrel jumped over the Novell to fly the eskimo kernel.

[06:12] ahhh sound [06:12] !alsa [06:12] 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 [06:12] ive so close to going back to windows, linux is a terrible experience [06:12] it sounds all sped up [06:13] when i reboot its fine but if i acidently run vlc prob it gets all fucked up [06:13] and with video files no sound at all [06:13] wtf [06:14] can anyone help?

[06:57] tes [06:58] hello [06:58] i ran the update [06:58] hello juga [06:58] hello juga [06:59] i have kubuntu 7.10, i ran updates but after reboot its giving me error 15: file not found [07:00] after that i changed the grub from hd(1,0) to hd(0,0) but then its showing me error 17: cannot mount selected partition [07:01] please help me what to do [07:01] its my development machine my entire code is in this machine [07:02] it will be a huge loss for me if it will not start [07:06] can somebody help me figure out what will be the problem [07:07] nishant, I'm not sure what can be done about the error 17/15 but if worst comes to worst you could boot the livecd and copy all your data off [07:08] also, changing the bios boot order might help though [07:09] i [07:09] 've had had error 15/17 before and changing the boot order of the hdd's gets rid of it [07:10] can u tell me exactly how you did it [07:11] when booting up, going into bios settings, then in boot priority, changing the order that my hdd's boot [07:11] i already have HDD my first bootup preference [07:12] is there any thing else i have to do [07:12] though each bios is usually pretty different, try reading your motherboard manual if you have any problems [07:12] ohh, so you only have one hdd ? [07:12] ya [07:13] and its detecting it, as its showing me os] selection menu [07:13] but after that its showing me error 15 [07:14] http://www.xvpj.net/?p=46 [07:19] sorry, http://www.xvpj.net/?p=46 was a link to someone with a similar sounding problem, and how they fixed it [07:19] its same link as above [07:21] yeah, just explaining what it was, as the URL doesn't give much info on it [07:22] ok thanks [07:23] will let u knw as i m trying to fix it with live cd [07:24] oki, good luck [07:28] I'm still having problems booting kubuntu, or even booting the livecd, after the kubuntu loading splash screen the screen will go black for a few seconds, then switch to a black screen with thick grey horizontal lines across screen with a cursor at the top left of the screen [07:29] u may need to edit x.org [07:29] manually [07:29] Ctrl F1 will bring up a terminal fine, but any commands entered will be unresponsive and will only show if i switch to a different terminal then switch back [07:30] someone said it might be to do with frame buffer, but adding the "nofb" setting under kernal in grub doesn't do anything [07:34] hello, i am having some serious issues with knetmanager. is there an expert in the house? === user12 is now known as user12_ === user12_ is now known as user12__ [07:43] thanks we r now done with our problem [07:43] hey all :) [07:49] anybody knows how to make a streaming server on linux using ipcam ? [07:49] can anyone give the line i type into terminal to download and install azureus? [07:50] MacKulkin: the only i know would be to us linuxmce. sorry if im not supposed to say that in here [07:51] Respatix linuxmce?

[07:54] MacKulkin: heres the video demo i think http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2176025602905109829 [07:58] Respatix [07:58] are you kidding [07:58] whats so special about linux MCE [07:58] i have 6.06LTS and am trying to install webmin i used the command wget but when am trying to dpkg it, it is giving me the following needed libauthen-pam-perl libmd5-perl but when i am trying to apt-get them its giving me no installation candidate [07:58] this brit acts as if it's a holodeck lmao [08:00] Respatix why does it need to know what room you are in? [08:00] i don't get it? [08:00] fujisan: it doesnt need to know [08:00] why is that option built in [08:00] i mean [08:00] its just an extra feuture [08:01] so it can pull up just your media [08:01] as opposed to anther user in the house [08:02] you can set up security to inform you on your cell if someone not auth goes into a certain room [08:02] i prefer media portal [08:02] user can be identified by their bluetooth cell phone that they are carrying [08:03] there are a lot of great programs and platforms. i'll have to check out media portal [08:03] its an opensource MCE for xp [08:03] lol [08:04] The thing that i think differentiates linuxmce is that it is whole home automation [08:05] it can control lighting, securtity, media, heating , ac, sprinklers, almost anything [08:05] yeah if you have the shit for that [08:05] most people dont have all that stuff though [08:05] anbd beverly hill people arent likely to use linux [08:05] commercial install that can do the same thing cost tens of thousands of dollars [08:05] MCE [08:05] lol [08:05] no its not very expensive [08:06] it is to have all that lighting and security and sprinkler and heating systems [08:06] you can use existing computer hardware [08:06] i have non of all that [08:06] i have wireless router thats it [08:06] and then buy devices that you want to connect [08:06] and a cellphone [08:06] lol [08:07] i picked up 4 lighting modules at compusa on 90% off clearance [08:07] if i would get a automatic lighting system i would get one with motion detector so it will just put on the light when it detects motion [08:07] thats an idea [08:08] but you can set up senarios so lights dim when start watching movie or light turn on at sunset [08:09] philips r&d and others are working on ambient intelligence http://www.research.philips.com/technologies/syst_softw/ami/background.html [08:10] but we are far from that [08:10] i occupy one room at a time and its easier to do it manual [08:11] i live alone so i have no use for automatic lighting [08:11] i understand [08:11] its not for everyone [08:12] its what ive chose to work on [08:12] i like it [08:13] and i have a Wii for browsing the web in my living room [08:13] Umm. #kubuntu-offtopic [08:13] and a eee pc from Asus [08:13] i like that it automatically downloads flikr photos and has them transitioning behind the menus when no other media is playing. so always fullscreen media on my 52" lcd [08:13] to have all my multimedia everywhere in the house [08:14] yep i needed a solution to have media accessible in all rooms [08:14] Fujisan, Respatix: #kubuntu-offtopic [08:15] Ukonpoika: sorry [08:15] agh eeepc! no thanx [08:15] I do like ASUS tho [08:15] who has all that shit in their house Respatix [08:15] lol [08:16] i can control my neighbors devices via blue tooth lol [08:16] linux mce cant do that D: [08:17] Fujisan sounds dangerous [08:17] remotely controlling devices can be a big security problem [08:17] yeah [08:17] exactly [08:18] Fujisan: a lot of people can now [08:19] i know [08:19] my blue tooth headset has 30 meters reach [08:19] i have a pc zapper for media center [08:21] i wasnt aware of the fact that some people have fully automated homes [08:22] i still live in the stone age :( [08:23] ForgeAus, was it you who suggested turning off frame buffer to solve display problem yesterday ? [08:23] אחד [08:23] I hightly doubt it [08:23] I barely even know what a framebuffer is! [08:24] oki, sorry bout that then ^.^ [08:24] I was, however making suggestions (unless someone got their lines crossed it was unlikely I was talking to you keeper, that being said we have chatted before) [08:24] Fujisan: i wasnt aware either, and im not even close to there, i just want lighting control in the living and the bedroom, ya know to impress my friends :) [08:25] why what happened? [08:25] yeah i saw a guy on paltalk he was showing of his new tv its on an hydrolic electronic arm that comes from under the bed pretty high tech he paid 10k usd for it [08:25] this guy up in calgary has everything on automation though [08:26] yipes 10k [08:26] yeah but it looked really cool [08:26] *omfg* [08:26] huge tv [08:26] Riddell: why is the standard kubuntu always broken - at least the bootlogo. nothing could be selected [08:26] Respatix, again, #kubuntu-offtopic would be the place to talk [08:26] Riddell: the daily snapshots i mean... [08:27] fujisan, do you want to go over to #kubuntu-offtopic or are we done? [08:27] hmm I must have got dissed [08:27] as I was saying keeper, what happened? [08:27] so anyone working with gutsy/zoneminder/phillips snc900? I am having issue... [08:28] I might just repost what i asked above ? [08:28] i think IRC should have a bot that acts as a buffer so when i send something offtopic i end in #kubuntu-offtopic automagically and if i say something on topic of kubuntu i will be directed to #kubuntu [08:28] i mean can't you code that keeper [08:28] keeper: I should go to offtopic? [08:28] you seem knowledgeable enough [08:29] I'm still having problems booting kubuntu, or even booting the livecd, after the kubuntu loading splash screen the screen will go black for a few seconds, then switch to a black screen with thick grey horizontal lines across screen with a cursor at the top left of the screen [08:29] black screens are offtopic also keeper [08:29] go to #blackscreens [08:29] maybe remove the splash option [08:29] Fujisan? seriously? [08:30] sounds like an X-server misconfiguration to me [08:30] start X keeper [08:30] keeper: boot to the rescue kernel, log in run startx, and return with the stdout [08:30] startx doesn't work [08:30] theres always that xserver-xorg reconfigure dpkg line that I never quite remember [08:31] keeper: also you can select vesa fallback mode when you use the live cd [08:31] keeper: how does it "not work" [08:31] do what klobster said keeper [08:31] forgeaus: i have a kubuntu ? i just installed azureus on kubuntu and was doing the setup and azureus disappeared. Everytime i try to open it again it starts loading and then disappears. any ideas? [08:31] yeah the dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work either [08:31] Respatix: use KTorrent ;) [08:31] Respatix perhaps it would be easier to find out whats going on if you run it from konsole [08:31] keeper: entirely different issues. Once again: how does it NOT work? [08:32] Respatix: check systray? [08:32] vzduch: i was using ktorrent just an hour ago and for some reason it was just too slow [08:32] I can boot up kubuntu and write all the error msgs down if that will help [08:33] argh I hate torrentz :( [08:33] klobster: im kind of a linux noob. how do i check systray [08:33] so does the RIAA fophillips [08:33] keeper: i would appreciate that (I believe that was my first suggestion). [08:33] ForgeAus* [08:33] Respatix the system tray is an area of your taskbar (in KDE its called kicker) [08:34] may i ask a kubuntu question... [08:34] Respatix: see the clock? any small icons, or "pictures" there? (not trying to be rude, but not sure how n00b you are) [08:34] !ask [08:34] Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) [08:34] some icons like the yellow box of adept to show theres updates, a clipboard called klicker and a speaker are common icons for the system tray [08:34] Ok here i go.,... on topic... kubuntu.....i need an alarm clock for kubuntu the builtin alarmclock isnt working for me [08:35] i have no audio [08:35] Fujisan: what do you need, a light based alarm? [08:35] klobster: np simple step by step is better than way complex over the head. but yep im familiar w that area and the little frog is not there [08:35] perhaps you should get someone to assist you with audio, I've never had sound in Kubuntu personally, (not that I need/want it) [08:35] no an alarm clock to wake up in the morning [08:36] sorry, i think i misunderstood the question, when in rescue mode,then startx, i will get the same blank screen [08:36] my external alarm clock broke [08:36] after a decade [08:36] Respatix: I don't think it is a frog in linux, anyone else confirm? [08:36] so for the interval i need to use my pc [08:36] Fujisan: so you DO have sound on your PC? [08:36] hey klobster! [08:36] yes [08:37] ziggggggy: hey hey! [08:37] klobster: all i have in systray is klipper, audio , and kopoteeee [08:37] whats the command to start the builtin alarm clock via Konsole? [08:39] Respatix: try kmenu, run and type in ps === MacKulkin is now known as MacKulkinn [08:39] Fujisan: cron? [08:39] keeper: any luck? [08:39] ForgeAus: ok i ran azureus in konsole and can the errors === MacKulkinn is now known as MacKulkinnn [08:40] doesnt help me fix it though [08:40] klobster: luck with what ? [08:41] keeper: when you run startx it goes to a black screen and stays there? [08:42] no, it stays black for a few seconds, then the screen turns black with thick horizontal grey lines across the screen, with a cursor in the top left of the screen === noisekiller is now known as NoiseK [08:43] Anyone leet at configuring ssh tunnels? [08:44] ; [08:45] keeper: ctrl -c or ctrl-alt-backspace or ctrl-alt-- dont change the state? [08:46] Fujisan: alarms are in adept, goto kmenu, system adept manager, and search on alarm. else put a command to play a file at X time in cron. [08:46] I can't check atm, I'm dual booting windows on the same computer [08:47] keeper: there is little i can do without the error msgs. [08:48] yeah, sorry for making it so difficult, I'll see if i can borrow someones computer, brb [08:48] how do i use superkaramba i installed a widget but i dont know how to run it? [08:50] Respatix: did you run ps? === MacKulkinnn is now known as MacKulkin [08:52] hello, I just installed and it kind of ruined my windows partition.. well it's still there but I can't boot on it, because it's a goddamn laptop with a factory "recovery partition" and I think grub thought that was my windows one [08:52] so is there an easy way to tell it to add another partition as a "windows boot" ? [08:53] hi all [08:53] any1 tried kde4 [08:54] help plz [08:55] any1 tried kde4 [08:55] what command do i use in terminal to uninstall a program like azureus [08:55] sanitarium, yeah what about it [08:55] apt-get remove azureus [08:55] thanks [08:55] is it stable [08:55] u r welcome [08:55] no [08:56] azureus isnt stable [08:56] but that not what you were asking was it [08:56] i mean kde4 [08:56] lol [08:56] stable enough for me [08:56] use it as my only DE [08:57] do i have to remove kde 3.5.8 === gladier_ is now known as gladier [08:57] nah [08:57] u can have both [08:57] ok i'm on a different computer now [08:57] but the interface is better then kde3 [08:58] I'm rebooting the computer atm, boot into recovery mode and startx ? [08:58] is there any difference in apps [08:59] hi [08:59] hi [08:59] where are you from? [08:59] how do you turn on dht in ktorrent? [09:00] enable dht networks [09:00] what menu is that in i cant seem to find it [09:00] keeper__: yeah [09:01] startx seems to have worked, though one of two screens still has the grey screen problem, while the other has gone as it should have [09:01] * keeper__ face palm [09:01] in settings [09:01] u ll find general options [09:01] i think it was because i have two screens, and the second screen was turned off [09:02] Dual screens? should have mentioned that first. how did you set up dual screen to begin with? [09:02] i didn't, it's a fresh install [09:02] did u found it [09:03] well technically it wasn't dual screens as the second screen has been off through the install and when trying to boot [09:03] gotcha. can you log in on one of the screens? [09:04] yeah everything seems to be fine, though only on one screen === MacKulkin is now known as Mackullkin [09:05] i have problems starting compiz fusion on kubuntu [09:05] it wont start [09:06] keeper__: sounds like the problem was you had the wrong screen turned on? let's log in and see if we can't set up the other screen. [09:06] does any1 know wats maybe the cause [09:06] why doesnt the prefrences menu in ktorrent have a scroll bar. I cant get down to see the bottom section of the menu as it goes below the bottom of my screen? [09:06] Fujisan: are you fixed? [09:07] yeah seems like it was *sigh*, how embarrasing lol [09:07] keeper__: it happens : ) [09:07] Respatix: did you find azeurous in ps? [09:08] thanks, much appreciated , i think i can get the rest set up from here [09:08] Respatix: doh! I think I meant kpm, not ps, sorry! [09:08] keeper__: cool. Good luck! [09:09] how to setup itunes [09:10] klobster: no i ran azureus from terminal and it is crashing on startup [09:10] sanitarium: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/itunes [09:10] An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment: [09:10] SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00000000, pid=25975, tid=3084999568 [09:11] Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.6.0_03-b05 mixed mode, sharing) [09:12] roblematic frame: C 0x00000000 === cannon is now known as MikeyLDS [09:14] compiz fusion woooooooooooooooooooont start and i dont know why [09:14] keeper I'm glad your problem is fixed :) [09:14] thnx klobster [09:14] wait he's gone? [09:14] hey guys [09:14] am new to linux and kubuntu and would like some help :P [09:15] Mikey just ask your question [09:15] guys plz [09:15] i saw a guide on how to install compiz fusion earlier on the ubuntu website but can no longer find it :( [09:15] !compiz [09:15] it was a guide using terminal [09:15] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion [09:15] i have it already installed [09:15] (theres a #compiz-fusion channel too [09:16] woot, chears man, bookmarked :) [09:16] yes, thanks :) [09:16] but every time i try to enable it nothing happens [09:16] i bet loads of peeps ask the same questions over and over :P [09:16] sanitarium first steps first [09:16] you trued this ... compiz --replace [09:16] for mikey getting it is the first step [09:16] dammit, how do I add a font ? =) [09:16] for you.. I don't quite know [09:17] does compiz replace kwin? [09:17] sanitarium: what'd i do? [09:17] i already did the replace command [09:17] by the way [09:17] am using kde [09:19] is there a way to copy and paste into terminal? [09:20] MikeyLDS: highlight, middleclick [09:20] hmm, ta :) [09:20] hadn't thought of that :D [09:20] yes [09:20] control v [09:20] when I start a kubuntu and compiz, all the stuff that should have been in the taskbar comes up as windows in the taskbar. known problem? [09:20] MikeyLDS: unless you are switching screens (ctrl-alt-fX), then you are screwed === Mackullkin is now known as MaccKulkin [09:24] xgl not present ... any ideas? [09:29] Mikey what video card do you have? [09:29] and sanituarium if your still here try #compiz-fusion they're more likely to be able to help you than I can [09:32] what's a kbfxtheme? [09:33] kbfx is an alternate kmenu [09:33] it's 'skinnable' [09:33] if you have KDE4 I doubt it applies (it may do I'm not sure)... if you have KDE3.x you can get a program kbfs thats yes skinnable [09:35] ah. I have kde3.x and I'm trying to install my first theme. after installing a .ktheme, where should I be able to find it and activate it? [09:36] kbfx is a kicker applet [09:36] um you change it in the config for kbfx [09:36] Dekans that makes sense I forgot about that [09:37] ok ayabara, rightclick your kicker and add an applet to the panel [09:37] kbfx should be there [09:37] ForgeAus: it wa sconfusing for me when i tried it :p [09:37] hehe Dekans I remember I didn't want it for some reason thats probably why, baghira is very similar [09:37] (although there more to baghira theme than just the menu applet) [09:38] ForgeAus: actually I don't need the kbfx theme then. just wondere what it was. I downloaded the stuff from here http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/kollide?content=75295, and have no idea how to install them all :-) [09:39] And not I lost the will to install it. Anyone got a good theme to recommend? [09:40] ForgeAus: mind if I pm ya? [09:40] in answer to your question before [09:40] nvidia 8800 [09:41] actually kollide looks kewl only that I don't like so much black [09:41] wait mikey before you do [09:41] !nvidia [09:41] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [09:41] (also if your not registered then pm's don't work on freenode [09:41] but other than that feel free) [09:42] is there a restricted driver manager in kubunu? [09:42] i haven't been able to find it so far [09:42] yes [09:42] a restricted driver manager?

[13:40] yeah [13:40] but some people use this card... [13:40] and it's integrated [13:40] I know, it should work. I imagine it depends on what your time is worth.

Apache2 is working fine, but none of my php is being proccessed. Any ideas? [16:53] very annoying [16:54] i still prefer to install debs graphically even if i know cli enough [16:54] hm... have you checked the bug reports in launchpad.net? maybe you could get more info from there [16:54] i heard it works again on hardy [16:54] but can someone confirm? [16:54] i could test hardy :) [16:55] worked everytime i used gdebi ..

[16:58] better :) [16:59] finally panel reiszing [16:59] sourcemaker: Usable, but not as good as 3.5 ( personal idea... ) [16:59] lowridah`afk: better than kde 3.5.9? [16:59] ll i only have 450MBs of ram apparently so its kinda slow...

I have this when I do a sudo ap-get update "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. [17:08] then run that :P [17:08] in terminal [17:08] I did but it doesn't do anything [17:08] my adept constantly crashes and that fixes it [17:08] Xk2c: midnight commander [17:09] fuhreal: yes [17:09] Xk2c: i'll try t [17:09] I get this: equested operation requires superuser privilege [17:09] requested [17:10] then use sudo before [17:11] !sudo | mulder [17:11] mulder: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root").

[18:19] Hi all: I just bought an Epson Stylus DX7400 printer, and am trying to install it in Kubuntu 7.10 amd64 [18:20] I am using the Add Printer Wizard, but my printer is not listed (only goes as high as Stylus DX 4800) [18:20] Will the drivers from their website work? [18:20] yep [18:21] is there a dummy package for openoffice? [18:21] you dont need to install them just point to the ppd file [18:21] Epson has good drivers [18:22] ok thanks: I shall try! [18:22] the_necrocide: a dummy package? [18:22] flipstar: do know where i change settings in coversation to not show people joining or leaving channel? [18:23] to install the whole thing in konsole [18:23] why does linux LAN options have a field for "broadcast ip" is that so that if someone tries to look up your ip they will get a faulse one? [18:23] Respatix: nope..i also searched for it once.. [18:23] oh, but is that an option on some irc clients? [18:23] the_necrocide: you can use prefixes like * [18:24] Respatix: "Settings -> Configure Notifications" [18:24] cheers! [18:24] or is it something you would set w your nick and the servers [18:24] Ok - there's no *buntu for the Epson drivers: shall I just use Debian drivers? [18:24] the_necrocide: same package you would install otherwise... [18:24] the_necrocide: I'm confused as to what, exactly, you want to know? [18:24] my openoffice was completely busted up [18:25] so I purged it [18:25] and i want to do a clean reinstall [18:25] Jsn0327: the "broadcast ip" is the ip used to send and receive packets sent to everyone on the subnet [18:25] Jsn0327: its a general networking thing, not linux specific [18:25] Jsn0327: is you do ipconfig /all in your windows box, you'll see it as well :-) [18:26] Respatix: you saw it? [18:26] the_necrocide: sudo apt-get install openoffice [18:26] the_necrocide: that should do it.... [18:26] oh ok [18:27] there is no package [18:27] just found out its openoffice-common [18:27] but you need to install writer/impress... seperately [18:27] epimeth: i see the menu, but i see how you can get it not to show for instance that stefan just joined this channel? [18:27] For Epson Stylus DX7400, there's no DEB package -- shall I just download the RPM? [18:28] epimeth: but i dont see... [18:28] FSHero: download the source.. [18:28] then point the wizard to the ppd file in the source === kde3-5-9 is now known as JanMalte [18:29] Respatix: oh... sorry... I thought you could disable them there... hmmm.. .let me see if I can find it. [18:29] epimeth: thanks [18:29] the_necrocide: sorry... sudo apt-get install openoffice.orf [18:29] the_necrocide: sorry... sudo apt-get install openoffice.org [18:30] flipstar: okay, this sounds scary...! but I'll try. [18:30] it aint.. [18:30] epimeth: cheers! [18:31] Respatix: settings->configure conversation->behavior->chat window->hide Join/Part/Nick events [18:31] that should do the trick [18:31] the_necrocide: nw [18:34] ok, I've got the "pipslite" source tar and extracted it to my ~, so do I run "./configure" then "make" then "make install"? [18:35] nope.. [18:35] just open the wizard.. [18:35] then click on add drivers and point to the ppd file in the source.. [18:35] You mean the KDE printer wizard? [18:35] yep [18:35] ok, I'm on it [18:36] >add driver [18:36] whats a cool app lol [18:36] im bored [18:37] compiz or kooldock or gkrellm are cool :) [18:37] flipstar: sorry about this, I'm really n00b at doing stuff like this... [18:37] Biggles: fortune [18:37] flipstar: do I go to "Add local printer" on the first screen of the wizard? [18:37] jes..just like you did before [18:38] but when the printer list comes click on add drivers [18:38] flipstar: There's no "add drivers", but there is an "Other..." button; do I click that? [18:38] I am trying to load urxvt with transparency using the fairly basic "-tr -tint red -sh 40" option. I have set my wallpaper with "Esetroot $thefile", have I forgotten something? [18:39] FSHero: yes [18:39] is there a better LAN manager than knetworkmanager? it doesn't even bring up the assigned ip address [18:39] FSHero: then point to the ppd file in the source/ppd dir [18:39] thats all [18:41] flipstar: ok, I there's a pipslite-1.0.3/ppd/eklite.ppd file (no source folder, but there is an src folder) [18:41] flipstar: is that the one? [18:41] yes [18:41] there is only one [18:41] pipslite-1.0.3 is the 'source' dir i meant === stijn^boer is now known as _stijn_ [18:42] Jsn0327: whats so bad about KNetworkManager (except for its lack of support for configuring vpns)? [18:42] flipstar: aha. thx [18:42] now you have your printer in the list [18:43] can wine run games? [18:43] yes it can [18:43] :) [18:44] flipstar: yes, it the printer on the list was "LITE", so I clicked Next... [18:44] ugh wtf im downloading this stuff sooooo slow :S [18:44] Biggles: "sort of", I believe, is the official answer to that question.... [18:44] I don't know why it's so bad :S [18:44] Biggles: ask you isp for an T3 [18:44] flipstar:... and then I clicked "print test page" but nothing happened [18:44] Biggles: "It depends on which game you want to install" is the best I can come up with [18:44] flipstar: are you sure I don't have to compile the drivers? [18:44] when i right click on it and goto options/show connection information it says no active device [18:45] ok [18:45] FSHero: guess yes..you now have selected you printer ? [18:45] at least for me it worked [18:46] flipstar: I have I guess standard cable... All of my other computers are fairly fast except this one :S [18:46] it's like a turtle [18:46] Biggles: maybe something wrong with your setting? see http://speedguide.net:8080/ [18:47] what is the command to disable the root acct? [18:48] flipstar: to compile the drivers, is it "./configure", "make", "make install"? (No sudo or anything) [18:48] FSHero: sudo make install [18:48] Jsn0327- you can't, nor would you want to [18:49] jpatrick: thx [18:49] sudo for the installation..>sudo make install to make it access for everyone [18:49] ok, I shall try compiling the drivers [18:49] Alright. I'm gonna do it. I'm switching to kubuntu :/ [18:50] Ok, I got this error: "configure: error: *** 'cups-config' missing, please install CUPS or fix your $PATH ***" [18:50] yes you can and yes i want to. i've read articles that say to disable it because you can use sudo for most all root commands. and every wonna be hacker tries to brute force your boot account [18:51] can anyone show me i can get help on xbox [18:51] flipstar: I'm pretty sure I have CUPS: because I was using an HP Deskjet 950C prior to this [18:51] flipstar: Also, are you sure the RPM package won't work? [18:51] 6.5 hours left!! woohoo! [18:51] md5sums better match.... or else [18:52] -.- [18:52] can anyone show me i can get help on xbox or if you can help me? === paul__ is now known as coffeeXXL [18:52] can anyone show me i can get help on xbox or if you can help me?

A clean-install is way better! [22:08] IMO, that is! [22:08] I thought apt was supposed to be awesome [22:09] you can't remove meta packages completely? [22:09] 2s [22:11] Maybe this will get you some of the way... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FromUbuntuToKubuntu [22:12] a clean install? [22:12] wow, thats retarded [22:12] you have got to be kidding. [22:12] so it really doesn't remove meta packages [22:12] like... the right way [22:12] hint: use aptitude [22:12] it handles dependencies better [22:12] bfrog, it can remove *automatically installed* packages [22:13] but if the package was always installed, it can't auto-remove it [22:13] ok, but when I say "remove my meta package" [22:13] I really mean [22:13] basically, it works by creating a list of what was installed when you installed X [22:13] remove all the packages that the meta package installed [22:13] not just that entry [22:13] sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop, sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop. [22:13] doesn't work unless the metapackage was manually installed [22:13] which it wasn't, because I used the CD [22:13] bfrog: do you have a reasonably powerful pc? [22:14] most definitely [22:14] are you *really* hurting for hard drive space? [22:14] thats not the issue [22:14] then there's absolutely zero point worrying about it [22:14] the menu's get ridiculously messy [22:14] so edit them down. [22:14] or remove individual apps that you don't use [22:14] so what your saying is... I should do all the work [22:14] instead of the package manager [22:14] god forbid! [22:15] i'm saying you can use the package manager to remove apps you don't need, removing them from the menu. [22:16] wow, apt fails [22:17] * Daisuke-Laptop shrugs [22:17] pacman doesn't do stupidity like that [22:17] if you're too lazy to learn to use it effectively, i don't feel sorry for you. it doesn't read minds. [22:17] uh no, it should just remove all packages associated with the meta package, I don't see whats so wrong with that [22:18] what if other apps depend on things in there [22:18] especially in the ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop metapackages [22:18] and i already told you how to do that [22:18] bfrog, seeing as ubuntu-desktop depends on EVERYTHING you have [22:19] I don't think you want that auto-removed [22:19] well, thats useless then, so no one has a quick command to swap completely the desktops [22:19] I see that as a failure [22:20] i don't say this often [22:20] Can anyone help me with something in KDE?

[22:24] kwin-style-crystal iirc [22:24] nope :P [22:24] i guess ill tey to install crytal [22:24] brb [22:24] thanks [22:24] * Daisuke-Laptop facepalms [22:25] how can i set in kooldock an icon that would represent Desktop Access [22:29] this here says CMAKE... http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Crystal?content=75140 . Im in the CMAKElist.txt and I dont understand what I'm reading here [22:31] Anyone? [22:31] is it possible to install unreal tournament goty in linux? [22:31] without using wine [22:31] ive heard of linux binaries [22:32] lancerocke, download it, install kde-dev, untar it, cd, make, make install [22:32] then perhaps symlink a bit to get the right install location [22:32] What is the easiest way to recode FLACs to constant bitrate instead of varying? [22:32] Ax-Ax, flac -d file.flac [22:32] then you get CBR WAV [22:33] ? [22:33] what? [22:33] flac is a command, -d is decode, file.flac is the file you want to make CBR [22:33] you'll end up with a "file.wav" that's a CBR WAV [22:33] i understood [22:33] but [22:34] isn't there cbr flac? [22:34] no... [22:34] okay [22:34] because FLAC is lossless and therefore can not do any kind of rate control === sadfjakjfd is now known as appelza [22:36] and it's the same bitrate as wav at max? [22:36] yes [22:36] that makes sense [22:36] foibles: it is possible and it's not that difficult [22:36] though you will be using the terminal [22:36] hrrm... knetwork manager is telling me I have no devices, however I just ran dhclient, and I'm now on the 'net on eth0 [22:37] anyone know how to fix knetworkmanager? [22:37] define "fix" [22:38] Daisuke-Laptop: temporary fix, this session, get it to register my network ports [22:38] (wifi and ethernet [22:38] amarok visualizations... what kind of stupid idea is a visualization that doesn't actually embed in the player? [22:38] atomicpotato: the same kind of visualizations that have been used for years in winamp. [22:38] atomicpotato: danny@danny-desktop:~/Desktop/crystal-2.0.1$ make [22:38] make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

[22:39] lancerocke, oh yeah, ./configure too [22:39] has been for almost two years [22:39] Daisuke-Laptop, well, no reason he can't build his own [22:39] it'll be a few versions more recent too [22:39] Daisuke-Laptop: I dont have crystal [22:39] lancerocke: are you using kubuntu? [22:40] atomicpotato: danny@danny-desktop:~/Desktop/crystal-2.0.1$ ./configure [22:40] bash: ./configure: No such file or directory [22:40] danny@danny-desktop:~/Desktop/crystal-2.0.1$ [22:40] how can i set a bootsplash ? [22:40] Daisuke-Laptop: Yes [22:40] oh, dunno then [22:40] lancerocke: then you have crystal, it isn't an optional package. [22:40] Daisuke-Laptop, actually it is. You can uninstall it. [22:41] you can uninstall it, so why not just reinstall it from the repos? [22:41] rather than futzing around with trying to compile it [22:41] well, 2.0.1 looks pretty new [22:41] maybe it's exciting or something [22:42] hmm, amarok visualizations really hurt my compiz framerate [22:42] alrighty then [22:42] good luck [22:42] Daisuke-Laptop: If I could show you a screenshot I would, but Crytal is not there. system settings>style [22:42] oh, Crystal 2.x is broken by the way [22:42] crystal is not there [22:42] no psuedo-transparency [22:43] lancerocke, uh, not under style [22:43] oooooooooooooooo [22:43] got it [22:43] oops [22:43] under "window decoration" :-P{ [22:43] atomicpotato: so how do i unround the corners again? [22:44] go tit [22:44] lol [22:44] * atomicpotato hates those silly round corners. They don't even look round. [22:44] brb [22:44] * Daisuke-Laptop refacepalms [22:45] hmm?
