| Claybrain145 | Start menu? | 00:00 |
| Pierro | lol | 00:00 |
| Pierro | i dont have one | 00:00 |
| terran4000 | K-menu then! | 00:00 |
| Pierro | ok | 00:00 |
| ign0ramus | a lot of people like Wubi, but i don't really know much about it | 00:00 |
| nonewmsgs | the problem with linux is i keep installing stuff and downloading stuff and running out of space | 00:00 |
| nonewmsgs | i have nearly 640gb all nearly full | 00:00 |
| terran4000 | o.O | 00:00 |
| Pierro | ign0ramus the new Ubuntu uses Wubi install method(optionally) in their beta installer | 00:00 |
| ign0ramus | what the hell are you dl;ing? | 00:00 |
| Jucato | nonewmsgs: that's... um.. unusual | 00:01 |
| terran4000 | I can't even find that munch anime and british tv to download! | 00:01 |
| ign0ramus | pierro: cool- its a really intuitive installer! | 00:01 |
| Jucato | 1. It doesn't download stuff without your consent/knowledge | 00:01 |
| Pierro | apt-get clean :) | 00:01 |
| terran4000 | *much | 00:01 |
| Pierro | yeah | 00:01 |
| Pierro | it is | 00:01 |
| Jucato | 2. It periodically cleans (30 days) the APT cache, but you can manually do it with the command Pierro gave | 00:01 |
| nonewmsgs | ign0ramus, no i only download stuffs i want | 00:01 |
| Pierro | http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/3569/15gbubuntufb0.png | 00:02 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: really long pr0nz??? ;) | 00:02 |
| terran4000 | lol | 00:02 |
| ign0ramus | pierro: sweet! | 00:02 |
| Pierro | yeah | 00:02 |
| Pierro | couldnt be easier | 00:02 |
| ign0ramus | less than a month! | 00:03 |
| terran4000 | That's the new-ish windows installer for K/Ubuntu right? | 00:03 |
| ign0ramus | yup | 00:03 |
| Jucato | !wubi | 00:03 |
| Pierro | yeah | 00:03 |
| ubotu | wubi advice here: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=234 and http://wubi.org [file wubi bugs here: https://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug ] (it will be included in hardy 8.04 currently in beta) | 00:03 |
| Jucato | hm.. they changed it.. | 00:03 |
| ign0ramus | damn bots! :) | 00:03 |
| terran4000 | 8.04 is comming along nicely, only minor problems so far. | 00:04 |
| terran4000 | Hope they finish it soon. | 00:04 |
| Pierro | yeah i like it a lot | 00:04 |
| ign0ramus | jucato: do you know how to limit the .thumbnails folder? i've gotten a lot of good advice from you before... | 00:04 |
| Pierro | 30 days i think | 00:04 |
| Pierro | or less | 00:04 |
| nonewmsgs | ign0ramus, old tv shows, ripped movies, etc | 00:04 |
| Pierro | Jericho got cancelled again :( | 00:05 |
| Jucato | O.o | 00:05 |
| Jucato | ign0ramus: hm.. nope... | 00:05 |
| Pierro | my fav. dystopian show | 00:05 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: so why are you blaming linux??? | 00:05 |
| nonewmsgs | Pierro, i am hoping sarah conner comes on | 00:05 |
| Pierro | lol | 00:05 |
| ign0ramus | jucato: np. thanks anyway | 00:05 |
| Jucato | ign0ramus: he's blaming linux for condoning his addiction :) | 00:05 |
| nonewmsgs | ign0ramus, hehe no i LOVE it. otherwise i wouldnt use it so much | 00:05 |
| Jucato | anyway, offtopic :) | 00:05 |
| hellhound | does anyone know why a wireless connection would go much slower in Kubuntu than in Linux? | 00:06 |
| terran4000 | Because Kubuntu is linux? o.O | 00:06 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: hmm... kubuntu vs. linux??? wha?? | 00:06 |
| hellhound | Opps I meant....does anyone know why a wireless connection would go much slower in Kubuntu than in WINDOZ? | 00:06 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: what kind of wireless card do you have? | 00:07 |
| ign0ramus | there shouldn't be any real difference | 00:07 |
| nonewmsgs | hellhound, i know that 54mbps dont use 108mbps in general | 00:07 |
| terran4000 | hellhound: most likely because of drivers ... though from what I've seen so far, most (thus not all) have no speed problems. | 00:07 |
| ign0ramus | and what are you using as a benchmark (ie, how can you tell?) | 00:07 |
| * Jucato uses http://speedtest.net usually... | 00:08 | |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: have you tried using Miro? you can use it to torrent, download http, and watch all your dl;s, and it can delete shows older than "X" days... its pretty cool | 00:09 |
| * terran4000 is happy if there actually IS a connection to complain about. | 00:09 | |
| nonewmsgs | ign0ramus, neat | 00:09 |
| hellhound | ign0ramus: it is a netgear WPN311 | 00:09 |
| Pierro | yeah i tried miro its buggy as hell on windows but runs ok on linux | 00:09 |
| * Jucato introduces nonewmsgs to the concept of burning files on DVD's... | 00:09 | |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: a pcmcia card? | 00:10 |
| nonewmsgs | Jucato, i just burned like 15 last weekend | 00:10 |
| Jucato | burn more! :P | 00:10 |
| nonewmsgs | Jucato, my ISP must hate me | 00:10 |
| Odd-rationale | is there anything like miro written for kde? | 00:10 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: i was just going to ask who you have! | 00:10 |
| terran4000 | Unless they sent you a DMCA, they still love ya as long as you pay the bills. | 00:10 |
| hellhound | ign0ramus: no it is a PCI card on a desktop (not laptop) it is too far away for a wired connection | 00:10 |
| nonewmsgs | ign0ramus, verizon 3.0mbps | 00:10 |
| ign0ramus | odd-rationale: you can run miro on kde | 00:11 |
| nonewmsgs | can't wait until fios finally reaches me | 00:11 |
| Pierro | nonewmsgs how fast will fios be/ | 00:11 |
| Pierro | ? | 00:11 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: verizon is known for being pretty cool about bandwidth. not like comcast... | 00:11 |
| Odd-rationale | ign0ramus: yeah i know. just wondering | 00:11 |
| nonewmsgs | Pierro, they have 3 speeds, 15mpbs, 30mbps, and i think 50mbps | 00:11 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: what kind of signal are you getting? full signal? | 00:11 |
| Pierro | nice nonewmsgs | 00:12 |
| ign0ramus | 50mbps! oh man- i'd need 10 more hdds! | 00:12 |
| hellhound | ign0ramus: how do i check in kubuntu? | 00:12 |
| Pierro | i played against a guy with fios from the usa i am from Holland and we didnt have any lag | 00:12 |
| Creationist | How do I make sure Kubuntu is using the latest nVidia drivers (proprietary)? | 00:12 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: don't you have a little icon in your kicker panel (taskbar)? | 00:12 |
| hellhound | ign0ramus: i have a few of them | 00:13 |
| ign0ramus | creationist: check in kcontrol | 00:13 |
| Pierro | ati proprietary drivers on Kubuntu borked my system so bad i had to reinstall :/ | 00:13 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: the one that corresponds to your wireless signal? | 00:13 |
| Creationist | ign0ramus: I basically mean how do I make Kubuntu install the newest drivers as they become available? | 00:13 |
| nonewmsgs | Creationist, envy does that | 00:14 |
| terran4000 | Pierro: yeah, ati driver are 'different'. There actually is a way to finesse them into submission. | 00:14 |
| Pierro | nonewmsgs i am currently on 24 MBit/s symmetrical fiber-to-the-home you get used to it really fast i might upgrade to 100 MBit/s symmetrical | 00:14 |
| nonewmsgs | Creationist, or at least it installs the latest one when you first do it | 00:14 |
| ign0ramus | i don't think envy is recommended... :( | 00:14 |
| ign0ramus | !envy | 00:14 |
| ubotu | envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 00:14 |
| Pierro | :) | 00:14 |
| Creationist | nonewmsgs: Right, but that's not what I'm looking for. | 00:15 |
| Jucato | Creationist: when a new driver has been packaged for Ubuntu, it will be available as an update on your system | 00:15 |
| Pierro | yeah envy breaks your system | 00:15 |
| terran4000 | No always | 00:15 |
| ign0ramus | creationist: it should do it automatically, but you can always check for yourself | 00:15 |
| hellhound | ign0ramus: I have a volume setting, the klipper, and Knetwork manager (but I am not using KNetwork manager since I could not get it to work..instead I put my SSID and key in /etc/network/interfaces | 00:15 |
| Pierro | they recommended envy to me in #ubuntu on EFnet :/ i was stupid enough to try envy | 00:15 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Hmm... then the package is WAY behind. My version is 100.x the current nVidia version is 164.x or something similar. | 00:15 |
| terran4000 | I used it on 3 new installs and it worked fine enough. | 00:15 |
| Pierro | terran4000 maybe for nvidia | 00:16 |
| nonewmsgs | you can always download the latest one from the chipset manufacturer? | 00:16 |
| Pierro | not for ati though | 00:16 |
| terran4000 | Pierro: twice on ati, once on NV | 00:16 |
| Pierro | not on my box anyways | 00:16 |
| Pierro | yeah | 00:16 |
| terran4000 | hehe | 00:16 |
| Jucato | Creationist: one of two things: 1. They might not have packaged it immediately for technical reasons or 2. It's already packaged, but somehow you haven't received the update yet | 00:16 |
| Pierro | proprietary ati drivers are terrible | 00:16 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: hmm... i wonder if knetworkmanager is interfering then. | 00:17 |
| Pierro | maybe not for higher end cards | 00:17 |
| terran4000 | you're telling me? I'm stuck with em until I get enough cash to guy a new nv card. | 00:17 |
| nonewmsgs | i have ati difficulty with windows and linux with ati | 00:17 |
| Pierro | but for my old card it was terrible | 00:17 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: if you're not using it at all, try removing it, restarting X, and see if your wireless speeds improve | 00:17 |
| Odd-rationale | If I had a choice between a intel video driver and a nvidia one, which one would be a better choice to get? | 00:17 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Hmm.. okay, I guess I'll just get it from nVidia then | 00:17 |
| Odd-rationale | *video card | 00:17 |
| terran4000 | Odd-rationale: nvidia | 00:17 |
| ign0ramus | odd-rationale: nvidia, by far... for now anyway | 00:17 |
| hellhound | ign0ramus: to remove it I just do so with adapt manager? | 00:17 |
| Jucato | Creationist: the newest nvidia driver is available in hardy. maybe it will be backported to gutsy or you can upgrade to hardy in a month | 00:18 |
| ign0ramus | hellhound: yup. or terminal... either way | 00:18 |
| Odd-rationale | ok. thanks! | 00:18 |
| ign0ramus | odd-rationale: even on windows, the comparable nvidia cards are outperforming ATI, and the fact that ATI drivers *suck* on Linux makes it a no-brainer | 00:19 |
| Odd-rationale | ign0ramus: ati or intel? | 00:19 |
| Pierro | yeah never again ati or amd for me | 00:19 |
| ign0ramus | ati | 00:19 |
| Pierro | next time its intel and nvidia | 00:19 |
| ign0ramus | yeah, amd isn't much fun with linux either (currently) | 00:20 |
| ign0ramus | the X64 support just doesn't cut it. | 00:20 |
| Pierro | lol amd is selling their failing quadcore cpus as triple cores now | 00:21 |
| nonewmsgs | i am all for amd/ati actually being competition but they seem to be more of lip service now. open source 2d drivers. wtf? they haven't opened the 3d which would be actually useful | 00:21 |
| ign0ramus | i got a 'slightly used' Acer Extensa 5620 for <$400, and linux instantly recognized the intel chipset/PRO wireless, and the dual-core cpu. Easy! | 00:21 |
| terran4000 | o.O, root ... lol. | 00:22 |
| nonewmsgs | ign0ramus, i have had wonderful luck with the *buntu and hardware. | 00:22 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: yeah, i loved AMD when they were actually beating Intel, because they're cheaper and were cooler (temp-wise). but right now, they are lagging | 00:22 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: the only two things i had to manually do something about were the 1. HD Intel sound and 2. Integrated webcam | 00:22 |
| ign0ramus | the sound involved adding a single line to a modules file - easy | 00:23 |
| nonewmsgs | ign0ramus, now that i think about it I did replace all my wirelesscards, replace webcam, and replace videocard | 00:23 |
| Pierro | i have had no luck with my blue tooth headset on Kubuntu i was able to pair and auth the device and connect but there wasnt any bluetooth audio device i could use in the Kubuntu audiomixer | 00:23 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: and everything was auto-detect? | 00:23 |
| nonewmsgs | yeah. the videocard did work but not well with beryl and the webcam was very dark green instead of colors (both were very old) | 00:24 |
| ign0ramus | and my webcam involved install the linux-uvc driver along with v4l and v4l2 | 00:24 |
| ign0ramus | also not too hard | 00:24 |
| nonewmsgs | so i spent my money on hardware instead of the OS | 00:24 |
| Pierro | the compiz stuff works very well for me with the ati open source drivers | 00:24 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: the way it should be | 00:24 |
| ign0ramus | pierro: i have a stupid integrated intel graphics that compiz seems to hate | 00:25 |
| Pierro | ok i see | 00:25 |
| Pierro | only thing that didnt run smoothly was kiba-dock | 00:25 |
| Pierro | for me | 00:25 |
| Pierro | couldnt get it to run properly | 00:25 |
| Pierro | cpu jumped at 90 % :/ | 00:26 |
| Pierro | lol | 00:26 |
| Pierro | but its useless eyecandy anyways :) | 00:26 |
| Pierro | kiba-dock at least | 00:26 |
| Pierro | someone should fix that kiba-dock | 00:26 |
| Pierro | is it abandonware? | 00:27 |
| Odd-rationale | is there any "mac-like" dock that works well with kde? | 00:27 |
| nonewmsgs | the one issue i have had with kubuntu is i had a cute little widget but once my system went into powersave mode it wouldn't come back if that widget was on | 00:27 |
| yakuzi | Odd-rationale: i thought AWN is something like that | 00:28 |
| Pierro | yeah awn | 00:28 |
| ign0ramus | pierro: you can try kdocker - not as snazzy, but essentially the same thing | 00:28 |
| Odd-rationale | yakuzi: OK. I thought awn had some problems with kde? no? | 00:29 |
| Pierro | i basically wanted to have kiba-dock cuz of all those cool youtube vids about it | 00:29 |
| nonewmsgs | i'm not a big dockman | 00:29 |
| Daisuke_Ido | looks cool, completely useless. | 00:29 |
| yakuzi | Odd-rationale: i don't know, i never tried it | 00:29 |
| ign0ramus | daisuke_ido: completely agree | 00:29 |
| Odd-rationale | yakuzi: me neither! | 00:29 |
| ign0ramus | especially once i found out about Alt+Space ;) | 00:29 |
| Odd-rationale | probably someone already made a plasmoid dock... | 00:30 |
| ign0ramus | i hate to say it, but eyecandy is much easier in GNOME, although it looks much better in KDE | 00:31 |
| Pierro | lol | 00:31 |
| ign0ramus | but i | 00:31 |
| Pierro | the physics engine is what makes it so fun and pointless at the same time :) | 00:31 |
| nonewmsgs | i want the gnome weather widget or something close to it on k | 00:31 |
| ign0ramus | prefer to use my resources for real work | 00:32 |
| firecrotch | work? what's that? | 00:32 |
| Pierro | lol | 00:32 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: then you want superkaramba + liquid weather | 00:32 |
| yakuzi | things like maple :( | 00:32 |
| Pierro | i keep minimizing windows to see the paper planes :) | 00:32 |
| ign0ramus | work = downloading tons of stuff, playing games, chatting, etc | 00:32 |
| ign0ramus | you know, work! :) | 00:32 |
| Pierro | ign0ramus i cant play games on linux :( | 00:33 |
| nonewmsgs | for work i use windows | 00:33 |
| Pierro | only emulators work well | 00:33 |
| firecrotch | Oh, *that* work! | 00:33 |
| Pierro | stupid ati | 00:33 |
| ign0ramus | pierro: what kind of games? i have a Playstation emulater, SNES emulator, and there;s a bunch of games in Add-Remove... | 00:33 |
| terran4000 | Pierro: You can't? Which drivers are you using? the Open source ones? | 00:33 |
| Pierro | can you install xen on Kubuntu? | 00:33 |
| Pierro | ign0ramus i mean games via wine igno | 00:34 |
| terran4000 | Pierro: yes you can. | 00:34 |
| Pierro | ign0ramus | 00:34 |
| Pierro | wont work for me | 00:34 |
| nonewmsgs | why are all the emulators easier in windows? really. even snes9x and zsnes | 00:34 |
| Pierro | anyways | 00:34 |
| yakuzi | Pierro: at least you have a normal GPU, i have to do it with a silly intel GMA 945 without memory of it's own | 00:34 |
| firecrotch | That reminds me, I should try to find my USB game pad | 00:34 |
| Pierro | yeah yakuzi | 00:34 |
| Pierro | you have a better cpu | 00:34 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: because the windows ones all involve a GUI, whereas the linux ones are the engine with a gui thrown on at the last minute! | 00:34 |
| Pierro | though :) | 00:34 |
| nonewmsgs | microsoft makes nice gamepads. they call them xbox things | 00:34 |
| Pierro | i have amd | 00:34 |
| Pierro | :( | 00:34 |
| Pierro | lol | 00:35 |
| Pierro | you can use your wiimote | 00:35 |
| ign0ramus | nonewmsgs: if you were comfortable using the terminal to play the emulators, they're actually better on linux | 00:35 |
| yakuzi | well i've an intel core solo T1350 (on my laptop that is, my desktop can't run linux due to some aid array crap...early sata motherboard) | 00:35 |
| Pierro | someone needs to make a nice flashy arcade app for all the emulation in kde style | 00:36 |
| rom | hi | 00:36 |
| rom | I don't understand | 00:36 |
| Pierro | hi rom where is ram? | 00:36 |
| yakuzi | :p | 00:36 |
| ign0ramus | pierro: kxmame | 00:36 |
| === firecrotch is now known as ra1 | ||
| yakuzi | ram has run away ;-) | 00:36 |
| === ra1 is now known as firecrotch | ||
| Pierro | lol | 00:36 |
| Ukonpoika | Obey the rules: post only support-issues here, all offtopic to: #kubuntu-offtopic | 00:36 |
| rom | I have a script sshfs-mount, which mount each of my mountpoints | 00:36 |
| rom | if I run the script it works | 00:37 |
| rom | but I made a link to this application on the desktop | 00:37 |
| rom | and launched from the desktop | 00:37 |
| rom | it doesn't work | 00:37 |
| ign0ramus | rom: probably an invalid symlink | 00:37 |
| rom | it's not a symlink | 00:37 |
| ign0ramus | could you just put it in your .autostart folder? or you only want it on-demand? | 00:38 |
| rom | on the desktop : right clic, "link to an application" | 00:38 |
| rom | no I want it on demand | 00:38 |
| rom | I enabled "open in a terminal" | 00:38 |
| rom | but doesn't work | 00:38 |
| rom | while if I run MANUALLY in a terminal it works | 00:38 |
| ign0ramus | rom: hmm.. are there any parameters you're specifying? what about permissions? | 00:39 |
| rom | no parameters | 00:39 |
| rom | permission 755 | 00:39 |
| rom | in "properties of link to an application" | 00:39 |
| rom | command : '/home/rom/sh/sshfs-mount' | 00:40 |
| yakuzi | rom: did you put the commands in the textbox below he "run in terminal"? because if it is, you can try adding it in the textbox next to "command" | 00:40 |
| rom | I put it in "command" | 00:40 |
| ign0ramus | rom: instead of entering the path manually, have you browsed and clicked on your script? | 00:41 |
| rom | yes | 00:42 |
| rom | that's what I did | 00:42 |
| firecrotch | OH MY GOD | 00:42 |
| ign0ramus | ok, well that rules out any misspellings/typos | 00:42 |
| firecrotch | I just finished installing Hardy-KDE4 on my laptop. SOUND WORKS!!! | 00:42 |
| ign0ramus | firecrotch: *golf clap* | 00:42 |
| Odd-rationale | rom: is ~/sshfs-mount made executable? | 00:43 |
| rom | yes of course | 00:43 |
| rom | it works in a konsole | 00:43 |
| ign0ramus | it would have to be | 00:43 |
| Odd-rationale | rom: just making sure | 00:43 |
| rom | -rwxr-xr-x 1 rom rom 198 2008-03-21 11:55 /home/rom/sh/sshfs-mount | 00:43 |
| firecrotch | ign0ramus: :) Never got sound working because the drivers were broken in Gutsy and every other release | 00:43 |
| rom | in fact when I launch it from the link on the desktop, it seems to work, but my folders are not mounted, while they are if I run it manually | 00:44 |
| rom | launching the script | 00:44 |
| rom | $ ~/sh/sshfs-mount | 00:44 |
| Pierro | tomorrow i get No More Heroes for Wii i am excited but now i want to find out how to use the group+tab feature in beryl? | 00:44 |
| ign0ramus | firecrotch: sweet dude | 00:45 |
| ign0ramus | firecrotch: out of curiosity, what soundcard do you have? | 00:45 |
| ign0ramus | rom: short of making it executable and having proper permissions, i don't see why it wouldn't work, but i think you've already arrived at that conclusion. :/ | 00:46 |
| firecrotch | ign0ramus: Intel 82801G High Definition Audio Controller | 00:47 |
| rom | $ cat ~/sh/sshfs-mount | 00:47 |
| rom | #!/bin/sh | 00:47 |
| rom | sshfs -p5678 rom-desktop:/media/gnu /net/gnu | 00:47 |
| rom | sshfs -p5678 rom-desktop:/media/tux /net/tux | 00:47 |
| rom | (the content) | 00:47 |
| firecrotch | it's an ICH7 Family audio card, which have never worked in *buntu properly | 00:47 |
| ign0ramus | firecrotch: did you ever add your laptop's model as a parameter in .modules??? | 00:47 |
| firecrotch | ign0ramus: Yeah, I've previously tried just about EVERYTHING that could be done | 00:48 |
| ign0ramus | firecrotch: well i'm glad hardy works for you. i;ve seen some previews, but it didn't seem that much different... did you notice anything that sticks out (besides the sound, lol)? | 00:49 |
| firecrotch | ign0ramus: Not yet, I'm working on getting my wireless to work | 00:49 |

| yakuzi | *company | 01:00 |
| ign0ramus | yakuzi: not too often *except* on flash sites. if i'm viewing youtube, i have like 1:4 odds that it will crash and I have to force-exit | 01:01 |
| ign0ramus | yakuzi: but that has to do with the flash plugin, not firefox itself | 01:01 |
| yakuzi | well hat site has much video on it, but it evencrashes when not using the video-streams at all | 01:01 |
| tuxwulf | ign0ramus: Eh no.. It is part of a more elaborate IME setup | 01:02 |
| firecrotch | Hm... guess I ought to download the KDE3 version of Hardy now | 01:02 |

| frank23 | yakuzi: belgians speak dutch, I thought it was mostly french and flammand (is flammand like dutch?) | 01:06 |
| yakuzi | well in belgium you have 3 official languages: dutch (most people); french (second biggest amount) and german (only a few housends or so) | 01:07 |
| ign0ramus | yakuzi: the only thing i see with the site is the amount of flash (tons!), but otherwise, it seems very compatible. | 01:08 |
| yakuzi | flammand (flemmish?) is dutch but a little diferent than used in The Netherlands | 01:08 |
| frank23 | yakuzi: ok. flammand is the french name for it | 01:08 |

| frank23 | yakuzi: all I can suggest is try firefox with a fresh profile (no extensions) | 01:10 |
| ign0ramus | ...or "firefox --safe-mode". same thing. | 01:11 |
| yakuzi | well for me it does...and i can't place it why (maybe the amount of flash), i also use adblock extentions by the way | 01:11 |

| guilhermeblanco | Hi guys... I tried a fresh Kubuntu 8.04 on my laptop. it worked well. I tried then to make an apt-get upgrade and after downloading all packages, it throughs me this error: http://pastebin.com/d44f40530 | 01:29 |
| guilhermeblanco | Ah... 8.04 KDE 4 | 01:29 |
| BluesKaj | I've heard of successful compiz installs on elcheapo ati graphics, but not sure if all the eye candy wizbang effects work. | 01:29 |

| hellhound | is there a way to reset my wireless card without having to reboot when I change channels in /etc/network/interfaces and the router? | 01:31 |
| frank23 | hellhound: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart should do it I think | 01:32 |
| hellhound | frank23: yes that worked | 01:38 |
| frank23 | hellhound: great | 01:38 |
| hellhound | and in fact my network soeed is now fixed after trying every channel... the last one was the best :) | 01:38 |

| Daisuke_Laptop | there's no other way to do it | 05:10 |

| Jucato | GNOME doesn't come with a OS X-type dock by default. it only comes w/ 2 panels (top and bottom) | 06:13 |
| Jucato | what guide? | 06:13 |
| Erickj92 | http://www.taimila.com/?q=node/11 | 06:13 |
| Erickj92 | a little ways down | 06:13 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Gnome-dock (which is actually a techology demo) | 06:14 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it doesn't exist | 06:14 |
| Erickj92 | ahhh | 06:14 |
| Erickj92 | how do i get AWN to work? | 06:14 |
| _maw | Erickj92: are you looking for the bling of the apple desktops? | 06:14 |
| Erickj92 | right now launchers to add to it, and there is a white like coming out of it | 06:15 |
| Daisuke_Ido | my first instinct is to say "get a mac" | 06:15 |
| Erickj92 | _maw, would like to duplicate it | 06:15 |
| _maw | check out compiz-fusion | 06:15 |
| _maw | or compiz | 06:15 |
| Jucato | !awn | 06:15 |
| Erickj92 | i havei t | 06:15 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about awn - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 06:15 |
| Jucato | nope, no info :P | 06:15 |
| Erickj92 | i have compiz | 06:15 |
| _maw | !compiz | 06:15 |
| ubotu | 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 | 06:15 |
| _maw | there you go :P | 06:15 |
| _maw | I just had to running on freeBSD7.0 | 06:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | https://launchpad.net/awn/+packages | 06:16 |
| Erickj92 | i need a good dock though | 06:16 |
| _maw | but formated to try kubuntu | 06:16 |
| Erickj92 | ahh thanks Daisuke_Ido | 06:16 |
| Erickj92 | _maw, i have the GNOME desktop installed | 06:16 |
| _maw | o... maybe you should try #ubuntu then :P | 06:16 |
| * Jucato had a funny experience with Ubuntu today :P | 06:17 | |
| _maw | o? | 06:17 |
| Erickj92 | _maw, you seem to have a problem with me being in here? | 06:17 |
| Erickj92 | i do run Kubuntu | 06:17 |
| Daisuke_Ido | _maw, i use gnome too. i come here for the people :) | 06:17 |
| Jucato | aw... | 06:17 |
| * Jucato is flattened | 06:18 | |
| Jucato | er.. flattered | 06:18 |
| _maw | lol no Erickj92 | 06:18 |
| Daisuke_Ido | you calling me fat? | 06:18 |
| Jucato | Erickj92: no problem with you beomg here. the problem is when you ask about Ubuntu/GNOME stuff... | 06:18 |
| Jucato | :P | 06:18 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that and most problems i run into aren't DE-specific, so i can ask either place :) | 06:18 |
| _maw | I only mentioned that as that channel might be more familiar as they use gnome | 06:18 |
| Jucato | Daisuke_Ido: how should I know!! | 06:18 |
| Erickj92 | _maw, truth is i cant get in because of my connection :/ | 06:18 |
| Daisuke_Ido | you just said i flattened you! :D | 06:19 |
| dek | a friend of mine has just installed Ubuntu, and when executing pppoeconf command to configure his ADSL (which works fine from Windows on the same PC) he gets the following message: "Sorry, I scanned 1 interface(s), but the Access Concentrator of your provider did not erspond. Please check the network card and modem cables.". Any idea? | 06:19 |
| _maw | your connection stops you from typing /j #ubuntu ? | 06:19 |
| Erickj92 | _maw, its with my router | 06:19 |
| Erickj92 | that DCC thing? | 06:19 |
| Jucato | !dsl | 06:19 |
| ubotu | Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE | 06:19 |
| Daisuke_Ido | wha... huh? | 06:19 |
| Jucato | dek: ^^^^ | 06:19 |
| _maw | Jucato: 99% done downloading updates... installing now | 06:19 |
| _maw | well "preparing" | 06:20 |
| Jucato | _maw: have fun. it's quite a lot | 06:20 |
| _maw | I dont care if it takes all night | 06:20 |
| * Jucato slept through it | 06:20 | |
| _maw | just dont know why it crash and burned | 06:20 |
| Jucato | nah not that long :) | 06:20 |
| Jucato | adept is like that sometimes | 06:20 |
| Jucato | ok most of the time :) | 06:20 |
| _maw | I see | 06:20 |
| _maw | should I use a more low level tool? | 06:20 |
| _maw | aptitude maybe? | 06:20 |
| Daisuke_Ido | synaptic | 06:21 |
| Jucato | your choice. you can even use... Synaptic :) | 06:21 |
| Jucato | or kpackage.. whatever floats your boat | 06:21 |
| _maw | ok I will keep that in mind | 06:21 |
| dek | Jucato: my friend seems to get the error in step 1 of the DSL config guide | 06:21 |
| _maw | adept was the program telling me to do 180 updates | 06:21 |
| === justin___ is now known as Justin1990 | ||
| _maw | so I clicked "go" | 06:21 |
| _maw | weeeeeeee | 06:21 |
| Daisuke_Ido | if you require a gui, avoid the satanic mess of fallen souls that is adept. | 06:21 |
| Jucato | dek: hm... I'm a bit rusty on my PPPoE... sorry | 06:21 |
| _maw | if I didnt want a gui I would run freebsd :| | 06:22 |
| Jucato | (I was lucky enough that it just worked) | 06:22 |
| Jucato | eddieftw!!! | 06:22 |
| dek | ok :P | 06:22 |
| Justin1990 | hey leute | 06:22 |

| eddieftw | hi Jucato :p | 06:23 |
| eddieftw | up all night writing a paper, i figure i might try to be helpful tonight and pop in here | 06:23 |
| Jucato | good :) | 06:24 |
| * Jucato wishes eddieftw had more all-nighter papers then :) | 06:24 | |
| _maw | can you write me a script that logically copies oracle archive logs to a standby server and then applies them? Of course with amazing error checking too | 06:24 |
| _maw | ah ha! | 06:25 |
| _maw | it broke again | 06:25 |
| Jucato | maybe #oracle ? | 06:25 |
| _maw | Jucato: I can do the script :P | 06:25 |
| _maw | I was kidding he said he wanted to be helpful | 06:25 |
| Jucato | ah | 06:25 |
| Jucato | ok heheh | 06:25 |
| _maw | "there was an error commiting changes. possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages" | 06:26 |
| _maw | on libqt3-mt... (can't see rest of it) | 06:26 |
| Jucato | time to use apt or aptitude :) | 06:26 |
| eddieftw | i dont even know where to start with that one... | 06:26 |
| _maw | in the gui what options are there? | 06:27 |
| Erickj92 | so no one can help me with the issues of AWN not working with launchers, and there being a white like juting from it? | 06:28 |
| Jucato | _maw: options for what? | 06:28 |
| Jucato | Erickj92: not unless you find a fellow AWN user in here... I'd have to say, no | 06:29 |
| _maw | sorry, I meant before I run "aptitude" from shell | 06:29 |
| _maw | is there another gui program I can try? | 06:29 |
| _maw | or is adept it? | 06:29 |
| Jucato | Syanptic or KPackage | 06:29 |
| Erickj92 | Jucato, is that also for the #ubuntu channel? | 06:29 |
| Jucato | probably Synaptic | 06:29 |
| _maw | where can I find the launcher for that? | 06:29 |
| Jucato | Erickj92: not sure. there is probably a greater probability of finding an AWN user in there than in here | 06:29 |
| Erickj92 | i see | 06:30 |
| Jucato | _maw: you have to install it first :) | 06:30 |
| Jucato | _maw: but if you want to get through your updates *now*: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 06:30 |
| _maw | I went into aptitude and hit "u" | 06:30 |
| _maw | seems to be doing the same thing? | 06:30 |
| Jucato | maybe | 06:31 |
| Jucato | not familiar with aptitude's text-based interface | 06:31 |
| _maw | k | 06:31 |
| _maw | I will just poke around | 06:31 |
| _maw | just curious, when I think I am done is there a way to check the integrity of all packages and the system? | 06:32 |
| _maw | other then dmesg and /var/log/messages | 06:32 |
| Jucato | it's done automatically by APT afaik | 06:32 |
| _maw | ok | 06:32 |
| Sukoshi | A question: Can cfdisk in the Kubuntu live CD be used to resize Vista's partition safely? | 06:38 |
| firecrotch | Sukoshi: Nope | 06:39 |
| eddieftw | depends on the problem with vista | 06:39 |
| eddieftw | just to resize? you can use a partition manager to resize. if there are not other issues with the ntfs, afaik | 06:39 |
| firecrotch | eddieftw: Not with the new version of NTFS in Vista | 06:39 |
| eddieftw | oh really?! maybe that's why ive been having trouble when people want help with that OS' | 06:40 |
| Sukoshi | Ah, so I was suspecting. | 06:40 |
| Sukoshi | So I'm limited to Vista's 1/2 HDD resize limit? | 06:40 |
| firecrotch | Sukoshi: I wasnt aware that there was such a restriction in vista | 06:41 |
| Sukoshi | firecrotch: Oh, that's the saying I've been hearing crop up over the forum posts I've been reading. | 06:42 |
| Sukoshi | But I guess if there's no other choice, Vista's partition manager it is. | 06:42 |
| firecrotch | if I recall correctly, I was able to make it any size I wanted | 06:43 |
| _maw | man, when adept fails it really owns the OS | 06:49 |
| _maw | the boot loader is gone and I cant even get to the OS | 06:49 |
| emilsedgh | !adeptfix | 06:49 |
| ubotu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 06:49 |
| Jucato | _maw: that shouldn't affect the os though | 06:50 |
| Jucato | at least not directly.. | 06:50 |
| emilsedgh | Jucato: i really cant wait for KDE4 version of adept... | 06:50 |
| Jucato | emilsedgh: you can help test it. I think mornfall would be interested :) | 06:50 |
| Jucato | (depending on his mood I guess...) | 06:51 |
| emilsedgh | ok, i will test it soon | 06:51 |
| _maw | ugh, the package managers think everything is updated, but infact the process never completed before | 06:53 |
| Jucato | _maw: see the tip from ubotu | 06:53 |
| _maw | kk | 06:54 |
| tomahasamoot | I've just installed Kubuntu 8.10 alt amd64... apt-get update isn't working, and adept manager isn't working | 06:56 |
| _maw | that didnt help, it thinks all packages are up to date | 06:57 |
| _maw | o well | 06:57 |
| _maw | I will figure it out, thanks though | 06:57 |
| tomahasamoot | x is also messed up, there's no real driver for nVidia, and the fake one crashes on logout | 06:59 |
| tomahasamoot | w/out apt, I can't even install firefox! | 06:59 |
| _maw | sure you can... compile it :) | 07:00 |
| tomahasamoot | Package firefox is not available, but is referred to by another package.This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, oris only available from another sourceE: Package firefox has no installation candidate | 07:00 |
| tomahasamoot | I'd rather not get into compiling stuff that doesn't need to be compiled... I'd rather get apt working | 07:01 |
| tomahasamoot | apt-get update is starting to work now | 07:05 |
| Jucato | _maw: why do you think packages are *not* up to date? (after running those commands) | 07:06 |
| firecrotch | What stupid setting is it in Compiz that doesn't allow me to change certain options in ccsm ? | 07:11 |
| firecrotch | or in KDE | 07:11 |
| firecrotch | I'm talking about the settings that are in blue text instead of normal text. | 07:12 |
| Jucato | #compiz-fusion perhaps? | 07:12 |
| tomahasamoot | why don't they learn from the bug reports? 8.04 has the same bug that was reported in 7.10--and that I reported a fix for! | 07:12 |
| Jucato | hm? | 07:13 |
| Jucato | link? | 07:13 |
| tomahasamoot | give me a min. | 07:13 |
| tomahasamoot | this bug goes back to "feisty" (whatever that means?--what's wrong w/ version numbers) and it's still not fixed... here's the link: | 07:17 |
| tomahasamoot | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/86666 | 07:17 |
| Jucato | feisty is 7.04 | 07:17 |
| tomahasamoot | Jucato: I see, thanks... started using kubuntu at 7.10, so I don't know older names | 07:18 |
| Jucato | wow long report.. | 07:18 |
| Jucato | hm... I'm not sure but maybe #ubuntu-devel people will be more knowledgeable about this, since it's a USplash bug | 07:19 |
| tomahasamoot | my entry is near the bottom, some others have reported that my fix worked for them as well | 07:21 |

| xptical | sudo apt-get install build-essential libesd0 esound oss-compat | 08:15 |

| tomahasamoot | that's good, I've heard that OSS is better than ALSA, but in the past some of it wasn't open source... so ALSA won by deflaut | 08:17 |

| Darkrift2 | i liked it, but it got old.... stuck with plain old kde after a while | 08:25 |
| Darkrift2 | was cool to show off to friends though | 08:25 |
| Darkrift2 | "whoa, your window just flopped and wobbled" lol | 08:25 |
| devilsadvocate_ | wrting fire on the sceen is fun too :D | 08:25 |
| Darkrift2 | lol | 08:25 |
| tuxwulf | Jucato: Thanks... | 08:26 |
| xptical | is there a shortcut to launch a terminal? | 08:26 |
| Darkrift2 | the one thing i DID like was the cube | 08:26 |
| tomahasamoot | Darkrift2: yea, same here... it's cool, but there's already enough things to go wrong w/out adding another layer of bugs on top | 08:26 |
| Darkrift2 | xptical, make one :) | 08:26 |
| xptical | yeah | 08:26 |
| xptical | i guess so | 08:26 |
| devilsadvocate_ | xptical, look at yakuake | 08:26 |
| Darkrift2 | i just set win+e to open dolphin (yes, long time windows user) | 08:26 |
| xptical | too easy | 08:27 |
| xptical | now, why didn't glxgears install when I enabled the nvidia card? | 08:28 |
| Darkrift2 | i wish i could figure out how to set win+r to open the run dialog :S | 08:28 |
| xptical | isn't that alt+f2? | 08:28 |
| devilsadvocate_ | xptical, i think glxgears is in a serpate package .. some -tools | 08:28 |
| Jucato | Darkrift2: change it :) | 08:28 |
| Darkrift2 | yes but im used to certain shortcuts, so win+r is always what i try first | 08:28 |
| Darkrift2 | how? | 08:28 |
| Darkrift2 | run isint in the menu | 08:28 |
| Jucato | devilsadvocate_, xptical: mesa-tools or something | 08:28 |
| asobi | is there a way to have kaffeine default to playlist instead of "home" upon start? | 08:29 |
| Darkrift2 | thats how i edited the dolphin one :S | 08:29 |
| Jucato | Darkrift2: System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Keyboard Shortcuts | 08:29 |
| xptical | yep. mesa-utils | 08:29 |
| xptical | why is compiz installing a bunch of gnome crap? | 08:29 |
| Jucato | xptical: not gnome crap, but most probably gtk stuff | 08:30 |
| xptical | we should take off and nuke gnome from orbit. it's the only way to be sure | 08:30 |
| Jucato | although I won't be surprised if some gnomelibs would be there too... Compiz was heavily GTK-leaning... | 08:31 |
| Darkrift2 | nice, ty Jucato | 08:31 |
| asobi | is there a way to have kaffeine default to playlist instead of "home" upon start? | 08:36 |
| xptical | crap...I need Flash. | 08:36 |
| jussi01 | !flash | xptical | 08:37 |
| ubotu | xptical: 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 | 08:37 |
| xptical | lemme guess: apt-get install flash? | 08:37 |
| jussi01 | xptical: flashplugin-nonfree | 08:37 |
| emilsedgh | anyone knows the status of gnash? is knash ported to kde4? | 08:40 |
| eddieftw | !gnash | eddieftw | 08:41 |
| Darkrift2 | hrmmm | 08:42 |
| Darkrift2 | i just installed flash, but its telling me i either dont have it installed or i have an old version installed :S | 08:43 |
| Darkrift2 | used the website from above to install | 08:43 |
| TeslaTony | Do you have 64 bit Ubuntu or 32 bit? | 08:43 |
| Darkrift2 | 32 | 08:44 |
| Darkrift2 | lemme try a restart of firefox again | 08:44 |
| TeslaTony | You might also look at uninstalling/reinstalling through Synaptic | 08:44 |
| Darkrift2 | works | 08:44 |
| Darkrift2 | ok, how do i add something to auto run when x starts? | 08:46 |
| xptical | sorry about that. needed to restart to get it to work | 08:47 |
| Darkrift2 | damn, i forgot i still dont have working sound | 08:47 |
| xptical | and, guess what? no sound in flash in firefox | 08:47 |
| Darkrift2 | heh | 08:47 |
| jussi01 | xptical: yeah, there is a way to fix that, hrmm, Just wish I could remember it. | 08:51 |
| xptical | be back in a bit | 08:54 |

| lg188 | wolfspfote: did that non response | 11:41 |

| rom | it was in default repositories in gutsy... | 14:48 |

| TeslaTony | Any idea why Firefox would crash more under KDE than GNOME? | 15:10 |
| rom | no, it doesn't crash for me | 15:10 |
| rom | on kde | 15:10 |
| rom | it was on kubuntu edgy | 15:10 |
| rom | and feisty | 15:10 |
| TeslaTony | Hrm | 15:10 |
| TeslaTony | For me, it crashes incessantly | 15:11 |
| TeslaTony | A huge part probably has to do with the fact that I'm opening about a dozen tabs per window and four windows | 15:11 |
| rom | uninstall flash plugin | 15:11 |
| rom | and reinstall it from firefox | 15:11 |
| TeslaTony | Hrm...that might do it | 15:12 |

| === pascalFR_ is now known as pascalFR | ||
| TeslaTony | I can try that. I'm getting a little fed up with Compiz on KDE anyways | 15:25 |
| jhutchins_wk | I gather SuSE has gone to Gnome these days, and that's where the base development of compiz comes from, so the integration's a little better. | 15:25 |
| jhutchins_wk | kde on compiz is less stable than gnome on compiz. | 15:26 |

| alastair | 'kay. I had to reinstall my OS because I thought my disk was b0rked but it wasn't. I installed Gutsy over Gutsy, keeping my /home partition intact. The only problem I now have is that knetworkmanager doesn't make kwallet ask for my password. I presume this is because the reinstalled knetworkmanager is at odds with my home directory, one of which says the WPA key is stored and the other of which says it is not | 15:40 |
| alastair | So I can't connect my wireless | 15:40 |
| alastair | Is there a config I can delete or something to reset my kwallet settings? I'm not around the laptop at the mo so I can't say if it worked but i'm so damn bored at work I figured i'd research my personal problems :) | 15:41 |
| nomopofomo | this sucks. i can't add myself to a group with the users program in system settings | 15:48 |
| Jucato | nomopofomo: how come? | 15:49 |
| nomopofomo | Jucato: It just won't let me. | 15:49 |
| Jucato | alastair: could you try running kwalletmanager and look for the password there? | 15:49 |
| Jucato | nomopofomo: you're running it in Admin Mode? | 15:49 |
| nomopofomo | Jucato: Yes. | 15:49 |
| nomopofomo | Wait... | 15:49 |
| nomopofomo | I might have to restart | 15:49 |
| Jucato | um? | 15:49 |
| Jucato | O.o | 15:50 |
| alastair | Silly boy | 15:50 |
| alastair | You never have to restart under Linux | 15:50 |
| Jucato | well, not "never"... | 15:51 |
| jpatrick | alastair: kernel upgrade? | 15:51 |
| nomopofomo | Hm... | 15:51 |
| Jucato | alastair: what was the restart for? | 15:51 |
| Jucato | er.. | 15:51 |
| Jucato | I meant nomopofomo | 15:51 |
| nomopofomo | Jucato: I would type groups in terminal and it wouldn't show me in the group. | 15:51 |
| nomopofomo | It's fine now. | 15:51 |
| sigma_1234 | will the latest kernel be in hardy? i see one got released very recently | 15:52 |
| Jucato | nomopofomo: um... here's a tip... when you add/remove a user from a group, you need to logout and login for changes to take effect | 15:52 |
| Jucato | nomopofomo: but no need to reboot. just logout | 15:52 |
| nomopofomo | That's what I did :) | 15:52 |
| nomopofomo | That was pretty fast for a reboot, wasn't it? | 15:53 |
| Jucato | well you did say "restart" | 15:53 |
| nomopofomo | You're right. | 15:53 |
| nomopofomo | I wish... KDE was better integrated with Ubuntu... I can tell that the level of polish in Kubuntu is not as high as in Ubuntu... | 15:54 |

| georgious_ | hey guys | 15:58 |
| georgious_ | could someone please tell me the antonym of "virtualization" | 15:59 |
| georgious_ | it got out of my head.. | 15:59 |
| Jucato | "native"? | 15:59 |
| georgious_ | I mean - multiple machines acting like one logical | 15:59 |
| makdaknife | cluster? | 15:59 |
| Jucato | not really an "antonym" then :) | 16:00 |
| * Jucato fails to see the relance to Kubuntu yet... | 16:00 | |
| makdaknife | that's what I was thinking | 16:00 |
| georgious_ | cluster.. mm.. | 16:00 |
| georgious_ | almost like it, I think :) | 16:00 |
| Jucato | farm? | 16:00 |
| nomopofomo | KDE is nicer than Gnome but I think Ubuntu is a little bit nicer as a whole than Kubuntu. | 16:00 |
| georgious_ | well, why not an "antonym"? | 16:00 |
| nomopofomo | BTW, Synaptic > Adept Manager. | 16:00 |
| alastair | the problem I have with GNOME is I don't like any of the themes :x | 16:01 |
| alastair | Like, any of them | 16:01 |
| alastair | Across the whole net | 16:01 |
| Jucato | georgious_: an antonym is the opposite of something. "multiple machines acting like one logical" isn't really the opposite of "virtualization" | 16:01 |
| nomopofomo | You should get a Mac if you like pretty looks. | 16:01 |
| alastair | Luckily I use Compiz so I override both KDE and Gnome | 16:01 |
| alastair | haha | 16:01 |
| georgious_ | Jucato: virtualization: one machine acting like many | 16:01 |
| georgious_ | :) | 16:01 |
| georgious_ | or.. maybe I'm wrong ? | 16:01 |
| alastair | Don't be daft. The only time I used a mac I crashed it trying to edit an HTML file | 16:01 |
| alastair | in a text editor, I might add. | 16:01 |

| LjL | Creationist: you should also look into .kde/share/config. why don't you do something like: grep -R "marok\|orrent" ~/.kde/ | 16:57 |

| Creationist | Jucato: So just deleting ~/.kde/share/config should do the trick and give me a fresh install of KDE without losing my application settings? | 17:01 |
| Jucato | Creationist: by deleting ~/.kde/share/config/ you *lose* application settings | 17:02 |
| Creationist | ah | 17:02 |

| alastair | Creationist: application settings are generally stored in your home directory. If you keep that, you keep the settings. | 17:04 |
| alastair | Indeed, personal settings basically *have* to be sotred there because you're not allowed to write anywhere else | 17:04 |
| Creationist | Then again, most Gnome apps do the same thing for some reason... tuck all their configuration and data files within the directory structure of the window manager... strange. | 17:04 |
| Jucato | Creationist: inability to what? | 17:05 |
| Creationist | alastair: No, I understand that. I'm trying to do a completely fresh install of Kubuntu (currently running Gnome), but I don't want ANY of my previous KDE settings.... except that I want to keep all my Amarok, Ktorrent settings. | 17:05 |
| Creationist | Jucato: To do what I just said I'm trying to do :) | 17:05 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Do you happen to know why the developers put their configs within the window manager directories? WOuldn | 17:06 |
| Creationist | WOuldn't it make more sense to just put them under ~/? | 17:06 |
| Jucato | move/rename the ~/.kde folder. once you login, a new one will be generated. copy over the Amarok and KTorrent config files and app data from the old ~/.kde to the new one | 17:06 |
| Jucato | within the what? | 17:06 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Ah... didn't think of that. | 17:06 |
| Jucato | they are under ~/ | 17:06 |
| Jucato | ~/.kde is under ~/ | 17:07 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Right... but what I mean is that most KDE apps have their files within ~/.kde/ and most gnome apps have their files under ~/.kde/gnome2/. Why can't their just be ~/.amarok, for example? | 17:07 |
| Creationist | Wouldn't that be more intuitive and useful? | 17:07 |
| Creationist | I meant ~/gnome2/ on that second one, by the way. | 17:08 |
| llutz | Creationist: no, it would fill your home and make it more confusig | 17:08 |
| Jucato | you prefer to have 40+ toplevel hidden directories? | 17:08 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Hehe, I already do for some reason. | 17:08 |
| billygotshot | how do i run aim on kubuntu? | 17:08 |
| Creationist | billygotshot: Look into Pidgin or Kopete. AIM is a Windows program. | 17:08 |
| Jucato | billygotshot: create an account in Kopete or Pidgin | 17:08 |
| llutz | billygotshot: use kopete, pidgin or im-of-your-choice | 17:08 |
| Jucato | Creationist: technically it's a protocol :) | 17:09 |
| Creationist | Jucato: AOL Instant Messenger is a protocol? | 17:09 |
| billygotshot | alright thanks | 17:09 |
| Creationist | Sounds like the name of an app ;) | 17:09 |
| Creationist | Then again, I'm stupid ;) | 17:09 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Thanks for your help again. | 17:10 |
| Jucato | (so is Yahoo!Messenger... but the protocol is still Yahoo!Messenger...) | 17:10 |
| Jucato | afaik | 17:10 |
| Creationist | Jucato: So then we were both right :P | 17:11 |
| Creationist | Jucato: May I ask one more quick question.... What are ~/.kderc and ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde. Are they important to KDE? | 17:13 |
| Creationist | lol and I'm not even sure how to rename a directory in the terminal... | 17:14 |
| Jucato | .kderc is the config for fonts mostly. .gtkrc-2.0-kde is the config for the gtk-qt-engine (make GTK/GNOME apps look like Qt/KDE) | 17:14 |
| Jucato | Creationist: then use Konqueror :/ | 17:15 |
| Jucato | or D3lphin | 17:15 |
| Creationist | Jucato: Should I just be able to mv -R .kde/? | 17:16 |
| Creationist | Not working.... | 17:16 |
| * Creationist never used to be so annoying :) Sorry. | 17:17 | |

| rom | hi, how to install ksynapic in kubuntu hardy beta? | 18:33 |
| rom | it is not in repositories | 18:33 |
| yakuzi | and if i may ask, what's the difference between "sudo apt-get install firefox" and "sudo aptitude install firefox", is apt-get outdateted or ..? | 18:34 |
| jorge_ | no luck | 18:34 |
| jorge_ | i already untar the file, and i see the firefox* file | 18:36 |
| tzd | rom: just out of curiosity... doesn't hardy come with synaptic?? | 18:36 |
| jorge_ | after that i'm lost | 18:36 |
| rom | ksynaptic, non | 18:36 |
| rom | no | 18:36 |

| rom | (dont confuse with synaptic with gnome for repositories) | 18:36 |
| tzd | that's exactly what i did... my bad :) | 18:37 |
| yakuzi | jorge_: about your first question, if you open add/remove programs and look at something like "change software source" on the left-down corner of your screen | 18:38 |
| tzd | hmm got one question myself: "Do 'make depend && make' to compile Wine." what does "make depend" means in this matter please? I've configured it and it works... wouldn't make install be enough? | 18:38 |
| yakuzi | what's crossed and what not, becasue if you don't have "universe" it's possible you have some greyed-out stuff (if i'm not mistaken) | 18:39 |

| PhilRod | otherwise you'll have to fiddle with something lower level | 19:30 |

| SteamedPenguin | does launchpad not like logins via Konqueror? | 19:35 |
| nixternal | SteamedPenguin: does it make you try and login again after you have entered your stuff correctly? | 19:37 |
| nixternal | ie. you have to login twice before it takes | 19:38 |
| SteamedPenguin | nixternal: actually kded is failing for some reason | 19:38 |
| nixternal | hrmm, I don't get that problem, but I do remember having to login twice in a row for it to take | 19:38 |
| MilhousePunkRock | Good evening! | 19:39 |

| MilhousePunkRock | SteamedPenguin: I have had that issue: Turn on my external hdd which was set to automatically being mounted, and kded would boost up to 100% | 19:45 |
| MilhousePunkRock | SteamedPenguin: Quite a few things will not work when kded needs to be killed... Cookies are among them, dcop calls to amarok too... | 19:46 |
| MilhousePunkRock | SteamedPenguin: How did it happen? | 19:46 |
| SteamedPenguin | MilhousePunkRock: as far as I can tell either kded didn't start when I logged in or it died a silent, quiet death and I didn't notice anything until I tried to log into lauchpad and couldn't | 19:47 |
| MilhousePunkRock | SteamedPenguin: Something must be wrong with kded in 3.5.9 in Gutsy.. From the reports, it does not act up like this in Hardy... | 19:48 |

| Darkrift2 | nvm, it selkected on its own | 21:03 |
| Darkrift2 | ok, it wants a reboot, brb hopefully | 21:05 |
| Combatjuan | Is there a way to detect whether or not an external monitor is plugged in (to a laptop) at the time of startup and use an alternate xorg.conf? | 21:06 |
| Combatjuan | Or perhaps to use different options in an xorg.conf depending on if another monitor is plugged in? | 21:06 |
| Combatjuan | Also, is there a way in dolphin to sort by MIME type that I'm just not seeing? | 21:07 |
| algyz | Combatjuan: if you're using nvidia card, maybe nvidia-settings will help | 21:08 |

| jpatrick | there | 21:18 |
| BluesKaj | the ./objects.dir confuses me | 21:19 |
| mado | does the panel have a name? | 21:19 |
| jpatrick | mado: you have to right-click it, and configure panel -> Appearance | 21:19 |
| deb | Am I connected | 21:19 |
| jpatrick | mado: it's called Kicker | 21:19 |

| jpatrick | deb: here? | 21:20 |
| mado | jpatrick, ... thanks ... i don't know why but i didn't see the "configure panel"-thing :) | 21:20 |
| deb | It is a bit lengthy, but essentially the is a problem with 8.04 that would be simple to correct | 21:20 |
| mado | thank you ... i'll be back in some minutes | 21:21 |
| deb | The problem is the lack of Internet apps. As it stands I cannot use the distro because I cannot connect to the internet | 21:21 |

| Combatjuan | deb: Which in particular are you missing? | 21:23 |
| jpatrick | mado: hmm, is it locked? | 21:23 |
| mado | jpatrick, ... ? | 21:24 |
| deb | I have two places where I connect to the internet - two different ISP's | 21:24 |
| mado | what do you mean? | 21:24 |
| jpatrick | mado: did you get the options windows? | 21:24 |
| deb | On one I have a wireless network and the main computer has a D-Link DWA 552 wireless card, Kubuntu cannot find the card. | 21:25 |
| deb | There is a GPL driver for it, Sabayon uses it. | 21:25 |
| mado | yeah ... i can see them now ... it wasn't locked ... i just missed the line "configure ..." | 21:25 |
| deb | The other the ISP uses PPPOE to connect - complete with user name and password, for each log on. That set of apps is not available on the Live CD | 21:26 |
| jpatrick | deb: I'd say find the driver and tell the guys in #ubuntu-kernel | 21:26 |
| deb | It is the "other" Atheros driver | 21:26 |
| deb | Also, there is no woking "ndiswrapper." | 21:27 |
| mado | i hope you don't think that i'm weird or something ... but when i saw that there is a possibility to change e.g. the symbols i wanted to try that out too :) | 21:27 |
| jpatrick | deb: well, we're mostly desktop developers, the -kernel guys know best what happens in the kernel | 21:28 |
| jpatrick | mado: everyone starts out at one point :) | 21:28 |
| deb | I will move over - just wanted you to be aware the current desktop setup is not a viable choice for a number of folks. | 21:29 |
| deb | Thanks | 21:29 |
| jpatrick | deb: you are most welcome | 21:30 |
| mado | well jpatrick ... this isn't the first thing i do ... when i finished the installation i installed some software ... and then i went to "kde-look.org" :) | 21:30 |
| mado | erm ... | 21:34 |
| mado | is there a way to have a different wallpaper for each desktop? | 21:35 |
| jpatrick | yes | 21:35 |
| mado | ok ... how do i go about it? | 21:35 |
| * jpatrick looks for option | 21:35 | |
| jpatrick | mado: right-click the desktop -> Background | 21:36 |
| mado | ok | 21:36 |
| jpatrick | Configure Desktop then -> background | 21:36 |
| mado | uhuu ... i think i can see it now | 21:37 |

| mado | there was only one problem with the installation | 21:40 |
| mado | the computer can't connect to the "medibuntu"-site | 21:40 |
| algyz | DarkriftX: not sure about phones, try to type "oss" in terminal and then tab, probably there is some mixer | 21:40 |
| mado | so i can't download the updates which are on the "medibuntu"-site | 21:40 |
| nosrednaekim | mado: wow... medibuntu is on the default install? | 21:41 |
| DarkriftX | oh wow | 21:41 |
| DarkriftX | its friggen huge | 21:41 |
| jpatrick | mado: open the terminal -> K-Menu -> System -> Konsole and type: "sudo apt-get update" | 21:41 |
| DarkriftX | more settings then i could figure out in a week | 21:41 |

| ubotu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 21:42 |
| deb | Question, I was given less than a "warm" reception over on the "ubuntu-kernel" channel. So, I will ask here, "Where are the ndiswrapper and pppoe apps on 8.04? | 21:42 |
| nosrednaekim | deb: linux-ubuntu-modules or something like that | 21:43 |
| mado | this thing didn't really work as planned ... -> Adding the Repositories | 21:43 |
| deb | Does the install load them or do I need to go to the CD? | 21:43 |
| administrateur | no | 21:44 |
| deb | No? | 21:44 |
| DarkriftX | ok, in the ossxmix if i turn down the "internal speakers" the headphones are working but speakers are off, and vice versa... so i know it can work. How can i tell the OS to auto turn off the speakers when headphones are inserted? anyone know (using OSS) | 21:44 |
| administrateur | i don't think | 21:44 |
| nosrednaekim | deb: should be on the CD if not inthe default install | 21:45 |

| FastPutty | jpatrick : i cannot ind monitor and display inthe system in the kmenu | 21:54 |
| ubotu | mado - try seeind if these pages help: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 21:54 |
| mado | the problem is ... the speaker-symbol has an X button | 21:54 |
| mado | there was a command to show you what soundcard you have | 21:55 |
| jpatrick | FastPutty: System Settings? it's in the third row | 21:55 |
| mado | i can remember something with "grep" | 21:56 |

| mado | yeah i guess that was it ... | 21:56 |
| mado | oh ... a pity ... the command doesn't give me an output | 21:57 |
| mado | even sudo didn't help | 21:57 |
| jpatrick | hmm, then it can't find a card.. | 21:58 |
| mado | i remember someone saying that it is a card where you have to use "make" and "install" commands ... | 21:59 |
| mado | wait a sec ... i have an idea ... | 21:59 |
| rickest | mado: lspci | grep -i audio | 22:00 |

| mado | i told you before that the speaker-symbol is shown with a white X on red background | 22:04 |

| nones | sorry | 22:51 |
| jussi01 | nones: it sounds that way | 22:51 |
| hellhound | does anyone know what I can test to find out why one of my computers with kubuntu is running so slow? | 22:51 |
| jussi01 | nones: are you on the live cd now? | 22:51 |
| nones | the 1 i got say kubuntu 7.10 desktop amd 64 | 22:51 |
| nones | that | 22:52 |
| jussi01 | nones: and what pc do you have? | 22:52 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: yeah... run ctrl+esc and see what is using the most CPU/RAM | 22:52 |
| nones | i have a frankestien | 22:52 |
| nones | lol | 22:52 |
| nones | is a compak evo | 22:52 |
| nones | compaq evo | 22:52 |
| jussi01 | nones: need a little more info than that... | 22:52 |
| nones | like??? | 22:52 |
| jussi01 | nones: how old is it? | 22:52 |
| nones | intel pentium 4 | 22:52 |
| === myk_ is now known as robinson | ||
| nosrednaekim | you need i386 for that one | 22:53 |
| nones | i got that also | 22:53 |
| nones | but is to big | 22:53 |
| SlimeyPete | too big? O.o | 22:54 |
| SlimeyPete | it shpuld be CD-sized | 22:54 |
| nones | and can`t record it on tha dvd for some reason | 22:54 |
| SlimeyPete | *should | 22:54 |
| nones | that is the problem | 22:54 |
| nones | i can find cds that size | 22:54 |
| nones | all i got r for 700 mb | 22:54 |
| SlimeyPete | hang on, is it the CD iso or the DVD one? | 22:54 |
| nones | i got both | 22:54 |
| nones | on my desk | 22:54 |
| SlimeyPete | the CD iso is 700MB. | 22:54 |
| nones | i burned the cd ISO | 22:55 |
| nones | NOP | 22:55 |
| SlimeyPete | if your burning software says otherwise, it's wrong. | 22:55 |
| nones | O THAT | 22:55 |
| nones | YES | 22:55 |
| nones | YES | 22:55 |
| nones | AND I KNOW IS THAT ONE CAUSE I CAN RUN IT FROM THE COMPUTER | 22:55 |
| nones | FROM MY DESK | 22:55 |
| SlimeyPete | please don't shout | 22:56 |
| nones | BUT I WAS TRYING TO GET READ OF WINDOWS AND ISTALL IT BUT IT APPEARS THE MESSAGE I TOLD YOU | 22:56 |
| nones | sorry | 22:56 |
| SlimeyPete | right... and the CD iso you have is for i386? Or amd64? | 22:56 |
| nones | look let me slow down a bit and explain | 22:57 |
| SlimeyPete | ok. | 22:57 |
| nones | the second on is the one i burned | 22:57 |
| hellhound | nosrednaekim: nothing seems to be really being used | 22:57 |
| nones | and thats the one that when i try to install a message appears that say: | 22:58 |
| SlimeyPete | the second one? the amd64 one? | 22:58 |
| nones | yes | 22:58 |
| nones | that on | 22:58 |
| SlimeyPete | right, that's why it doesn't work | 22:58 |
| SlimeyPete | you don't have an amd64 system. | 22:58 |
| nones | i can run it from my desk | 22:58 |
| nones | ???? | 22:58 |
| nones | nice question | 22:58 |
| nones | and i have no clow | 22:58 |
| SlimeyPete | pentium 4 is not amd64. | 22:58 |
| nones | clue | 22:58 |
| SlimeyPete | pentium 4 is i386 | 22:58 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: did you sort it by CPU use?.... click on the top of the CPU usage list to sort by cpu usage | 22:59 |
| nones | i have a pentium intel 4 | 22:59 |
| nones | how do i get to know that?? | 22:59 |
| SlimeyPete | right, for a pentium 4 you must use the i386 iso. | 22:59 |
| nones | mmm | 22:59 |
| nones | that is a big problem cause i can burn that in a dvd | 23:00 |
| SlimeyPete | the amd64 iso requires a 64-bit processor to work properly, you see. Your processor is 32-bit. | 23:00 |
| nones | ok | 23:00 |
| hellhound | nosrednaekim: yes i did sort it... ksysguard is using the most at about 10% but it changes to 1.49 or zero the only thing else using is d3lphin | 23:01 |
| nones | well so is there any way to force the recording into de dvd i got?? | 23:01 |
| nones | i got a dvd of 4.7 Gb from sony | 23:01 |
| nones | does that help?? | 23:01 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: what's the problem? | 23:01 |
| nones | so you can help me | 23:01 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: ah running slo | 23:02 |
| JohnFlux | w | 23:02 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: so hang on, how big is the i386 iso file you downloaded? | 23:02 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: if you run 'top' on the console, what does it say your load average is? (top right numbers) | 23:02 |
| nones | 4. | 23:02 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: what about RAM usage? | 23:02 |
| nones | 4.27 Gb | 23:02 |
| nones | thats the one i got | 23:02 |
| hellhound | JohnFlux: it is just running much much slower than my other computers... everything from typing in the terminal (delay of 1-3 seconds from when I type) to clicking on menus (delay of 1-5 seconds to open the menu) | 23:03 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: well try out what I suggested | 23:03 |
| nones | and it took about 12 hrs to down load since last night untill late this morning | 23:03 |
| SlimeyPete | hmmm, it really should just work, nones. It's small enough to fit. What software are you using to burn it? | 23:03 |
| nones | nero | 23:03 |
| hellhound | JohnFlux: the load average is 3.28 2.14 1.69 | 23:03 |
| SlimeyPete | how odd. I can burn it in nero, onto a standard DVD. | 23:03 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: hmm I thought so | 23:04 |
| nones | but it doesnt reconize de dvd on the burner | 23:04 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: ah. I think you may have to make sure nero is in dvd mode. | 23:04 |
| nones | is nero 8 | 23:04 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: that roughly means that the processes are demanding 3 cpu's worth of processing | 23:04 |
| nones | and is a real hasle | 23:05 |
| nones | nasty | 23:05 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: which is high :-D | 23:05 |
| nones | just cant get it | 23:05 |
| nones | can you guide me please | 23:05 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: try http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm . It is free and I have used it before. | 23:05 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: since it's not a process doing this, I can only assume it's a kernel driver | 23:05 |
| SlimeyPete | it seemed to work OK. | 23:05 |
| nones | ok | 23:05 |
| nones | let me see | 23:05 |
| hellhound | JohnFlux: how is that so? it is really not doing anything but serving as a file server, with very little demand on it | 23:05 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: oh wait, only if you have vista | 23:05 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: it doesn't support DVDs under xp, damn. | 23:06 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: and I don't really know how to advise you. Google for 'high load average' 'no programs' or some such | 23:06 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: it's a fairly common problem, but I don't know the solution | 23:06 |
| JohnFlux | hellhound: if you find out more, let me know please so that I can advise the next person :) | 23:06 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: I'm not sure about Nero 8, but I that when you start Nero 7 you have to select between DVD and CD - the main menu has two "modes". You need to make sure that it's in DVD mode. | 23:07 |
| sourcemaker | is there a kde meta package for all kde components? kdebase. kdegames, kdedevelop and so on? | 23:08 |
| nones | it also say something about 64 bit | 23:08 |
| nones | and as i understood i have 32 bit am i right?? | 23:08 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: whats your current RAM usage? | 23:08 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: you are | 23:08 |
| meeero | hi, it's about 7.10, a fresh-install. nvidia-settings tell me that the monitor supports max. 1024x768 when set to auto, but i can manually override it to 1280x1024 and even more. it's a huge monitor and DPMS seems to tell the software that no more than 1024x768 is possible | 23:09 |
| meeero | well, the problem now is that i can override it using xrandr or nvidia-settings, but kde sets the resolution back to 1024x768 at every startup, any ideas? | 23:09 |
| nones | ok | 23:10 |
| nones | ok | 23:10 |
| meeero | the monitor-settings in kcontrol can't set more than 1024x768, so i guess it's because of this | 23:10 |
| nones | then i have anther problem cause i have win xp | 23:10 |
| nones | i know | 23:10 |
| nones | please dont get mad | 23:10 |
| nones | sorry for the trouble | 23:10 |
| nones | i am slow | 23:10 |
| SlimeyPete | heh, it's no problem | 23:10 |
| nones | new on this and i want to learn | 23:11 |
| meeero | they also seem to show a wrong frequency, 50hz is max. in kcontrol, but nvidia-settings say that about 100 is possible | 23:11 |
| nones | sorry for the inconvient slimeypete | 23:11 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: ah, hang on a moment, I have another idea | 23:11 |
| nosrednaekim | meeero: you have the nvidia driver installed, and are currently using them? | 23:11 |
| meeero | yes, nvidia is in Xorg | 23:12 |
| meeero | loaded and working successfully | 23:12 |
| nejode | meeero: have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?? | 23:12 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: get imgburn from http://www.imgburn.com/ it is free and I am pretty sure it does dvd | 23:12 |
| meeero | sorry, but what would that change? | 23:12 |
| meeero | i mean, i can try it | 23:12 |
| nones | i did daown load the other one | 23:13 |
| nosrednaekim | meeero: you can add resolutions | 23:13 |
| nones | and it suppose to be installed by now but i dont see it any where | 23:13 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: I don't think isorecorder will work for DVDs because you don't have vista | 23:13 |
| nejode | meeero: there's a part where it asks you to choose your prefered resolution | 23:13 |
| nones | and i can assure you that is not because i am torpe | 23:13 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: so I think you can forget about isorecorder. imgburn should work though. | 23:13 |
| nones | ok | 23:13 |
| nones | lets see | 23:14 |
| === Ubuntu is now known as jimmysolis | ||
| meeero | but i could manually add these lines? | 23:15 |
| nejode | meeero: make a backup copy of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and run the command... | 23:16 |
| nejode | ...if something goes wrong you can always use your backup copy | 23:16 |
| meeero | it asks a lot of questions, i'm not sure about every single one and the current config is not really a help to determine the current settings, i'll try to add the lines manually first, backup created of course | 23:16 |
| meeero | the problem now is, it says: | 23:17 |
| meeero | Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" | 23:17 |
| meeero | and Option "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select +0+0; 1280x1024 +0+0" | 23:17 |
| cptR3D | can someone help me with mounting a usb harddrive with ntfs on it? | 23:17 |
| meeero | so 1280x1024 is already the preferred choise | 23:17 |
| nosrednaekim | meeero: erase that Option metamodes line | 23:18 |
| meeero | it's about kde then, it lowers the resolution because it thinks, 1024x768 is the maximum, i can't set more in kcontrol | 23:18 |
| nones | ok i got a lot | 23:18 |
| nejode | meeero: that must be because of the sync values of the monitor | 23:19 |
| siofwolves | cptR3D, do you know what name kubuntu has gave to your usb drive ? /dev/sd? | 23:20 |
| nejode | meeero: do you have the specs of your monitor? | 23:20 |
| nones | ok would i choose the one that say DATA DVD or VIDEO DVD or DATA HD-DVD? to record the kubunt i386??? | 23:21 |
| SlimeyPete | DATA DVD | 23:21 |
| nones | ok | 23:21 |
| Jucato | huh? | 23:22 |
| nones | lets see | 23:22 |
| Jucato | "to record the kubuntu i386"? | 23:22 |
| hellhound | JohnFlux: ok i am having difficulty trying to find anything in google, but those numbers seem to match what other people have where the support says that it is fine... my numbers are now 1.04, 1.29, 1.47 and still running slow | 23:22 |
| cptR3D | duude i totally just figured it out | 23:22 |
| cptR3D | siofwolves: thx ne way | 23:22 |
| nones | let you know | 23:22 |
| Jucato | nones: what do you mean to record? | 23:22 |
| SlimeyPete | Jucato: he has the DVD i386 iso | 23:22 |
| SlimeyPete | nero 8 won't burn it for him | 23:22 |
| SlimeyPete | so I told him to use imgburn | 23:22 |
| siofwolves | cptR3D, np | 23:22 |
| SlimeyPete | hopefully that will work better. | 23:23 |
| Jucato | nones, SlimeyPete: you don't create a Data DVD from an ISO. otherwise it will just burn an .iso file unto the DVD | 23:23 |
| SlimeyPete | Jucato: eh? | 23:23 |
| Jucato | There should be an option there like "Burn Image" | 23:23 |
| SlimeyPete | imgburn should burn the iso as a disc image | 23:23 |
| SlimeyPete | because disc images are all that imgburn does | 23:23 |
| SlimeyPete | Jucato: nero told him it was too big for the DVD | 23:23 |
| Jucato | oh | 23:24 |
| SlimeyPete | which suggests to me that nero is broken in some way | 23:24 |
| Jucato | SlimeyPete: imgburn calls it "Data DVD"? | 23:24 |
| SlimeyPete | yes. It can burn data or video images you see. | 23:24 |
| SlimeyPete | or HD DVD images, apparently O.o | 23:24 |
| SlimeyPete | but it does burn them as images, not files. | 23:24 |
| Jucato | weird and confusing name :) | 23:25 |
| nones | ok | 23:25 |
| nones | i couldnt do it | 23:25 |
| SlimeyPete | why not? | 23:26 |
| === Airforce5555 is now known as Soccer5555 | ||
| nones | it appear that for some reason the drive dont detect the dvd | 23:26 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: does your drive normally burn DVDs OK? | 23:27 |
| nones | this is the first time iam trying to | 23:27 |
| nones | this is a combo cd-dvd burner | 23:28 |
| hellhound | does anyone else know what I can test to find out why one of my computers with kubuntu is running so slow? Top does not appear to show anything of high usage.. but everything from typing to clicking on menus is delayed 1-5 seconds | 23:28 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: oh. I think your drive is not working properly for some reason. Or maybe the disc is broken. Are you sure it is a DVD burner, and not a CD burner with a DVD *reader*? | 23:28 |
| nones | mmmm | 23:28 |
| nones | i see | 23:29 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: it is common to have a combo drive that reads DVD and CDs but only writes CDs. | 23:29 |
| nones | that is the nasty reallity | 23:29 |
| nones | that is my case | 23:29 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: what is your memory usage? use "free -m" to tell you | 23:29 |
| nones | so i am stock on this nasty win xp | 23:29 |
| SlimeyPete | ok, if you can only burn CDs then you need to download the CD ISO: http://softlibre.unizar.es/ubuntu/releases/kubuntu/gutsy/kubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso | 23:29 |
| nones | oo | 23:29 |
| SlimeyPete | it is 700MB and will fit on a CD. | 23:29 |
| nones | then theres a solution | 23:29 |
| nones | let me download that | 23:29 |
| SlimeyPete | ok. It should work :) | 23:30 |
| nones | is it complete as well as the other?? | 23:30 |
| charwood | hellhound: Not an expert, but your slowness could be from the hard drive, not the processor. This can happen if for some reason DMA is turned off. To check this, open a konsole and type: "sudo hdparm -i /dev/sda1" (replace sda1 with your drive) | 23:30 |
| SlimeyPete | it has the whole Kubuntu system on it. It does not have as much software but you can easily download the software you need from the internet - it is all automated and very easy to do. | 23:30 |
| hellhound | nosrednaekim: it shows total 1011 used 890 free 121 | 23:30 |
| SlimeyPete | most people use the CD iso | 23:31 |
| nones | nice | 23:31 |
| nones | thank you very much | 23:32 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: is that from the second line of the output? | 23:32 |
| nones | hard to find peopple like you | 23:32 |
| SlimeyPete | nones: no problem, I am happy to help. | 23:32 |
| Jucato | yeah.. it's hard to find slimey people :) | 23:32 |
| SlimeyPete | heh | 23:32 |
| * Jucato whistles innocently | 23:32 | |
| SlimeyPete | not if you carry around a bucket of slime wherever you go | 23:32 |
| charwood | nosrednaekim: This will sound like a dumb question, but bear with me. (-8 Is the cache column on free -m the actual amount of your memory used by the kernel for cache (i.e. memory that could be considered free?) | 23:33 |
| nones | thanks | 23:33 |
| nones | i have another problem | 23:33 |
| nones | can`t down load the page | 23:34 |

| nosrednaekim | charwood: no... the +/- buffers/cache is the ACTUAL memory usage not counting the cache | 23:34 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: hrm.. you are good int hat department | 23:34 |
| nones | forget it | 23:34 |
| nones | it is down loading some how | 23:35 |
| nones | ther is a God | 23:35 |
| SlimeyPete | heh | 23:35 |
| nones | thank you very much | 23:35 |
| SlimeyPete | no problem. | 23:35 |
| nones | i have been trying with this for 2 weeks finally i can se a nice way to do it | 23:35 |
| nones | so this is gonna take awhile right?? | 23:36 |
| SlimeyPete | yes, it will take a while to download | 23:36 |
| nones | to download? | 23:36 |
| SlimeyPete | it is quite big, though it is nowhere near as big as the DVD | 23:36 |
| SlimeyPete | so it should download faster than the DVD did. | 23:36 |
| nones | thank you again and i let you know | 23:36 |
| SlimeyPete | :) | 23:36 |
| nones | yes is about 3 hrs or less | 23:37 |
| nones | nice very nice | 23:37 |
| hellhound | nosrednaekim: that is good memtest did not reveal anything either.... at first someone thought it was the mouse, but I replaced that without any real help... also this computer is a file server using samba and when a desktop tries to access it... it is also very slow | 23:37 |
| nones | there is my mail in case you wanna stay in touch with a very torpe guy on this matter | 23:37 |

| charwood | On a memory related question in KDE System Guard, are VmSize and VmRss equivalent to Memory Used and Memory Used - Cache respectively? | 23:37 |
| nosrednaekim | hellhound: thats really odd, You really shouldn't have to do this,but does rebooting fix it? | 23:37 |
| charwood | hellhound: Did you check the DMA on your hard drive? | 23:38 |
| hellhound | nosrednaekim: no i have tried rebooting several times | 23:38 |
| nosrednaekim | charwood: not sure..... I think VmSize the correct one to go by though | 23:38 |
| hellhound | charwood: i am getting /dev/sdc1: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument when I type sudo hdparm -i /dev/sdc1 | 23:40 |
| dorkface | I am curious about something. Can one have a desktop environment like KDE, but not use Kwin as the window manager, but some other one, like awesome? | 23:40 |
| nosrednaekim | dorkface: yes | 23:41 |
| charwood | dorkface: You can use beryl or compiz as your window manager instead. | 23:41 |
| dorkface | ah, cool | 23:41 |
| nosrednaekim | dorkface: just run "awesome --replace" | 23:41 |
| Jucato | dorkface: general info: <apt> You can change the window manager used by KDE with the $KDEWM environment variable. See http://ktown.kde.org/~seli/kdewm/ | 23:41 |
| Jucato | for Compiz, it's a bit different, but basically the same | 23:41 |
| charwood | Is "awesome" an actual window manager? | 23:41 |
| Jucato | charwood: yeah... weird eh? :P | 23:42 |
| Jucato | http://awesome.naquadah.org/ | 23:42 |
| charwood | Huh. Sounds... awesome. | 23:42 |
| Koji-Murasame | Anyone having/had issues with their video card in the Kubuntu Hardy Beta? | 23:42 |
| Jucato | Koji-Murasame: #ubuntu+1 please | 23:42 |
| dorkface | Yeah, i'd be nice to have a window manager with the ability to be used completely by keyboard by default | 23:43 |
| Jucato | dorkface: Alt+Tab doesn't work? | 23:43 |
| * Jucato notes that KWin has a lot of manipulation keyboard shortcuts... | 23:43 | |
| dorkface | Jucato: that's all a window manager does? | 23:43 |
| dorkface | I thought it did more | 23:43 |
| Jucato | dorkface: what are you referring to? | 23:44 |
| dorkface | like, binding a specific key to "raise" a specific program | 23:44 |
| Jucato | aaah | 23:44 |
| kdedev | hi | 23:45 |
| Jucato | if you mean "a specific program", then no... KWin doesn't seem to have that (you have cycle through Alt+Tab) | 23:45 |
| dorkface | yeah | 23:45 |
| Jucato | (although in KWin 4 the expose function allows you to start typing) | 23:45 |
| nosrednaekim | dorkface: yes,you can bind keys to applications | 23:46 |
| dorkface | I'd like to bind a key so that, no matter what I am doing, I can press, say, F10, and the konsole window will "raise" and come into focus | 23:46 |
| Jucato | nosrednaekim: to raise them? | 23:46 |
| Jucato | oh wait yeah | 23:46 |
| nosrednaekim | yep | 23:46 |
| Jucato | dorkface: lol sorry you can do that :) | 23:46 |
