| rootlinuxusr | damn | 02:11 |
| rootlinuxusr | yeah they are on the same | 02:11 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | Seti-Amon: Yup. It'll have an installer app on the desktop. Still... Suse 4? Wow. | 02:12 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | speaking of that installer, what's the name of that app? | 02:12 |
| Seti-Amon | no 64 intel? | 02:12 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | Seti-Amon: the AMD64 is a generic x64 kernel. | 02:13 |

| yotux | Knoqueror | 02:15 |
| yotux | I have even tried gwenview | 02:15 |
| Seti-Amon | The main reason i haven't touched linux in years is lack of time.didn't have time to fine tune it but from what i hear linux has changed a lot in the last 10 years or so,and kubuntu is especially good for all purposes? | 02:15 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | hmm... I've never had a problem like that. Let me see if someone else has submitted a similar bug. | 02:15 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | That was @ yotux. | 02:16 |
| jerknextdoor | seti-amon: kubuntu is a pretty straight forward distro. its good for beginners and/or just trying to discover what this whole gnu/linux thing is | 02:19 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | grr... Launchpad keeps timing out, and I get an 80% packet loss from pinging it | 02:20 |
| Ashex | Dr_willis, I just saw your comment >_>, I know I can set it through properties, but I remember that some of my albums folders tend to give themselves an icon based off a picture inside the folder | 02:20 |
| Seti-Amon | Gnu-linux?linus still pushing that as the official term? | 02:20 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | Seti-Amon: That would be rms pushing it, not Linus. | 02:20 |

| PeterFA | Ashex, oh, I was trying ksu or ksudo | 02:21 |
| PeterFA | Ashex, couldn't remember. | 02:21 |
| Seti-Amon | I'v been out of it for years,its just i installed my free "vista upgrade" and well I couldn't even boot it i had to do a clean install of vista and such.losts gigs of stuff hah...not funny but it really has been unstable | 02:22 |
| Seti-Amon | i was on a friends xp and i was blown away how fast xp was compared to my vista.i swear vista takes up 70% more resources crazy but true.at least on mine | 02:23 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | yotux: I don't see any bug like that on Launchpad. You might want to ask on the forums, or ask again and hope someone else has a solution. | 02:23 |
| yotux | I have played with a few setting and things are work 50/50 | 02:24 |
| BonesolTeraDyne | Seti-Amon: might want to take general discussion to #kubuntu-offtopic . Mods tend to frown on general chat in the support channel. | 02:24 |
| yotux | I am running hardy so that could be part of the problem, then on top of the I install kde4 | 02:24 |
| yotux | strange the kde apps would not read a jpeg file. | 02:25 |
| yotux | GImp is reading just fine | 02:25 |
| billyd | I was gonna upgrade to 7.10 with DVD. Apt says it can't read some files. I'll wait for 8.04 and upgrade - possily online | 02:26 |

| oleander | I had kubuntu on a parttioned drive (not partioned with windows tho, windows was on another drive) and today i deleted the kubuntu partion and formatted it in windows then i went to reboot my pc and now i can boot, it says GRUB loading error 1.5 | 05:15 |
| oleander | and now i cant boot | 05:16 |
| oleander | iive spent hours today trying to figure it out. if anyone can help me id be so grateful | 05:18 |
| DarkriftX | you need to get grub off of it and use the windows bootloader | 05:22 |
| DarkriftX | id think deleting all partitions and letting windows do all the partitioning during windows setup would fix that | 05:23 |
| DarkriftX | if not, i think there is an option in the system restore to re-add the windows bootloader | 05:23 |
| oleander | DarkriftX: i can boot into windows | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | oleander, what os? | 05:24 |
| DarkriftX | then whats the problem | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | xp = boot xp cd, use rescue mode, command is 'fdisk /mbr' | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | Vista has some other commands.. | 05:24 |
| Dr_willis | Or was that fdisk /mbr for win95? | 05:25 |
| DarkriftX | prob xp also | 05:25 |
| DarkriftX | fdisk hasnt changed since dos 2.5 | 05:25 |
| DarkriftX | lol | 05:25 |
| Dr_willis | fdisk /mbr, fixmbr, fixboot, then vista had some OTHER stuff... | 05:25 |
| Dr_willis | I dont think fdisk was in xp. | 05:25 |
| Dr_willis | Nice of MS to remove a age-old-standard tool. :) | 05:25 |
| DarkriftX | of course | 05:26 |
| oleander | can i get grub off it using live cd? | 05:26 |
| DarkriftX | nice of me to remove MS :) | 05:26 |
| Dr_willis | deleteing the partitions does not replace the mbr. :) | 05:26 |
| DarkriftX | no, but deleting them makes windows do more when it comes to partitioning | 05:26 |
| Dr_willis | oleander, a linux live cd? Depends on the windows OS youare wanting to use. | 05:26 |
| oleander | yeh | 05:26 |
| Dr_willis | find a XP cd, pop it in, use its rescue mode/recovery thing to get to a terminal, use fixmbr i thinkis proberly the easiest way | 05:27 |
| oleander | i wont wipe my xp drive doing this will i? | 05:27 |
| DarkriftX | no | 05:27 |
| Dr_willis | it will write a NEW mbr to the hard disk. thats it. | 05:27 |
| DarkriftX | just your mbr | 05:27 |
| DarkriftX | mbr = master boot record | 05:27 |
| oleander | ok ill try that now | 05:27 |
| Dr_willis | This has to be documented in 100000s of places. :) | 05:28 |
| Dr_willis | if ya know what to search for | 05:28 |
| Dr_willis | http://www.techzonez.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-3975.html | 05:28 |
| DarkriftX | Dr_willis, feel up for doing me a favor? | 05:28 |
| Dr_willis | Depends.. :) and no i aint got no $$ | 05:28 |
| Dr_willis | :P | 05:28 |
| DarkriftX | its part of an assignment, and the winner gets $30 (and a passing "grade") | 05:30 |
| oleander | Dr_willis: i boot from xp disc, how do i get the rescue mode/recovery thing to get to a terminal | 05:30 |
| Dr_willis | oleander, notice that url i posted above? | 05:31 |
| DarkriftX | i think hitting f8 during boot | 05:31 |
| oleander | ah thanks | 05:31 |
| kkathman | does anyone know how to get the repositories for compiz to download into kubuntu? I installed subversion but when I click on the downloads they dont do anything. | 05:31 |
| Dr_willis | they mention hitting R. :) but i dont recall ever doing that. | 05:31 |
| Dr_willis | !compiz | 05:34 |
| 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 | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | kkathman, that url tells ya exactly what commands to use.. :) or at least it did.. because i edited the wiki page to incude them | 05:34 |
| Jucato | (also gives a clue where to ask questions to get better answers :) | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | kkathman, run the emerald theme manager from a terminal, to see it spit out any error messages also. | 05:35 |
| kkathman | Dr_willis: well, it does say how to install it, but not what to do with the downloading of emerald themes | 05:35 |
| DarkriftX | you have to get emerald-themes from the website | 05:35 |
| DarkriftX | its a deb package, install it with dpkg -i filename.deb | 05:35 |
| kkathman | aw that really is too bad, other distros make it so much easier :( | 05:35 |
| oleander | Dr_willis: it worked thanks thanks soo much | 05:36 |
| kkathman | DarkriftX: I assume you mean the compiz-themes site? | 05:36 |
| DarkriftX | i actually searched google and found it | 05:36 |
| kkathman | DarkriftX: could you please share that site? | 05:37 |
| DarkriftX | i think i searched "emerald-theme deb" or add an s to theme, not sure | 05:37 |
| DarkriftX | its on a debian mirror | 05:37 |
| kkathman | Well its interesting that kubuntu installs a page that says "click here to get more themes" and neither button works :) | 05:37 |
| kkathman | but I'll check the web for debs | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | kkathman, the emerald themes get downloaded to the users home dir last i checked. I havent used the thing much. | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | I had to run/install some cvs commands to get them to work i recall | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | sudo apt-get install subversion | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | svn ls https://svn.generation.no/emerald-themes | 05:39 |
| kkathman | Dr_willis: yes I remember - I think in Edgy or maybe Feisty it did that too | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | You can then use the "Fetch GPL'd themes" button of The "emerald-theme-manager" tool. | 05:39 |
| kkathman | yeah I installed subversion, as I said before | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | I dont think the other button had ever worked. | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | It worked for me under gutsy just a few weeks ago | 05:39 |
| kkathman | I think you were right | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | Im not on gutsy any more. so cant verify. it might be their servers are down | 05:39 |
| kkathman | but I did install subversion and neither button works :( | 05:39 |
| Dr_willis | run the emerald tool from a terminal, look for error messages | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | thats about all ya can do. | 05:40 |
| kkathman | it says that you must run the subversion command from a shell, and accept a certificate....but the certificate expired | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | lol. :) | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | svn ls https://svn.generation.no/emerald-themes | 05:41 |
| Dr_willis | worked here.. i hit 'p' to accept it permenetly | 05:41 |
| DarkriftX | kkathman, im finding it | 05:41 |
| DarkriftX | oh, you found it | 05:41 |
| Dr_willis | Well the emerald-theme manager tool for Hardy - dosent even have those download buttons any more | 05:43 |
| Dr_willis | I got a big 1 theme. :) | 05:43 |
| Angry_Bacon | I'm trying to get nVidia 164.21 drivers working with a 8800gt. but anything i do gives me signal loss as soon as i startx | 05:44 |
| kkathman | yah thats the bad one | 05:44 |
| kkathman | svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/emerald-themes' | 05:44 |
| kkathman | svn: PROPFIND of '/emerald-themes': Server certificate verification failed: certificate has expired, certificate issued for a different hostname, issuer is not trusted (https://svn.generation.no) | 05:44 |
| kkathman | its a vicious circle :) | 05:45 |
| Angry_Bacon | lol | 05:45 |
| mbnoimi | is there any picture for help spread the word about kubuntu | 05:45 |
| Dr_willis | kkathman, looks to me like the guys behind dmerald decided to stop hosting the themes.. | 05:45 |
| kkathman | apparently | 05:46 |
| maduser | there're t-shirts | 05:46 |
| Angry_Bacon | anyone know where else would be good to ask about my driver issues?(besides #ubuntu) | 05:46 |
| kkathman | I swear they used to work in feisty | 05:46 |
| mbnoimi | like this link: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.ubuntu.com/files/countdown/display.js"></script> | 05:46 |
| Dr_willis | kkathman, but svn ls https://svn.generation.no/emerald-themes DID work here for me. | 05:46 |
| Dr_willis | kkathman, and it does seem to download some files. | 05:46 |
| kkathman | hmm | 05:46 |
| Dr_willis | i selected 'p' to permently accept. and then it printed out a lot of theme names. tako.emerald and so forth. | 05:47 |
| mbnoimi | I like kubuntu more than ubuntu so I want to put a link about commning new version in my blog | 05:47 |
| Dr_willis | But (and i am under hardy) those themes are not showing up in the emerald theme manager | 05:47 |
| kkathman | Dr_willis: ok I did it again, but this time I chose (p) for permanent (instead of a or hitting return) yes... got some files :) | 05:48 |
| mbnoimi | I found this link for spreading ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/hardy/beta but I couldn't find one for kubuntu | 05:48 |
| kkathman | now I dunno where it put them :) | 05:48 |
| kkathman | heh | 05:48 |
| Jucato | I don't think there is one for Kubuntu | 05:49 |

| arunkale | Hello, everyone. Is there any way to copy one file (text file) into all the subdirectories of a particular directory using the command line? | 06:14 |
| AngryBacon | cp -d -r | 06:14 |
| AngryBacon | o wait, misread | 06:14 |
| AngryBacon | ls -R (directory) | cp file | 06:15 |
| AngryBacon | Does any1 know how to get an 8800gt working? | 06:19 |
| arunkale | AngryBacon: so say i want to copy a file readme.txt into all the subdirectories of a directory called abc.. | 06:19 |
| arunkale | is this the right command: ls -R abc | cp readme.txt | 06:20 |
| AngryBacon | yes, i don't know if it will work but maybe, lemme check something first | 06:20 |
| arunkale | alright | 06:20 |
| AngryBacon | that didn't work | 06:22 |
| AngryBacon | do you know any sort of scripting? | 06:23 |
| AngryBacon | i'll see if i can whip up a python script | 06:23 |
| hydrogen | arunkale: for i in `find dir -type d`; do cp readme.txt $i; done; | 06:24 |
| hydrogen | dir being the top level directory you want to copy the file into | 06:24 |
| hydrogen | should work | 06:24 |
| * AngryBacon should probably learn bash scriping | 06:24 | |
| arunkale | hydrogen: i should enter that at the prompt? | 06:24 |
| hydrogen | yes | 06:24 |
| arunkale | hydrogen: awesome, will try that. thanks!! | 06:26 |

| AngryBacon | check on your monitors OSD to make sure thats what it really is, sometimes the options screen lies | 06:37 |
| Dr_willis | You are on a crt or lcd monitor? what video card.. have you installed the drivers for that card? | 06:37 |

| rabindra | Dr_willis: it's a CRT monitor | 06:39 |
| Dr_willis | I guess ya could use that modeline generator web site - if all else fails. | 06:40 |
| rabindra | Dr_willis: I have nvidia graphics card and as soon as i installed kubuntu i also enabled the restricted drivers since then it's 50 no more no less | 06:40 |
| Dr_willis | It may be the monitor settings are some how saying it cant do more. when in fact it can. | 06:41 |

| kkathman | ahh too bad | 07:33 |
| kkathman | yeah thats a bit of a odd card alright - not good support ever | 07:33 |
| patoe1 | i love compiz | 07:33 |
| kkathman | you are between a rock and a hard place - OSS might work, but its going away, and ALSA doesnt work yet :) | 07:34 |
| patoe1 | !compiz | 07:34 |
| 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 | 07:34 |
| Malique | kkathman: What about this pulseaudio thing? Can I use that with an OSS backend or something? | 07:34 |
| kkathman | Malique: perhaps - Im not familiar with that | 07:35 |
| Malique | What would be great is if I could get it to sit between ALSA programs like KMix etc. and translate them down to the OSS drivers | 07:35 |
| Malique | But unfortunately, I can't find any walkthrus or HOWTOs to do anything with it, it doesn't work on my system | 07:36 |
| kkathman | yah, yer kinda stuck there with that card | 07:36 |
| Malique | I made a bug report here too: https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3886 | 07:38 |
| patoe1 | chase is bored, is anyone set up like me, i have kubuntu installed with the xubuntu overlay (xfce) | 07:38 |
| patoe1 | ?? | 07:39 |
| kkathman | patoe1: nope I dont use xubuntu at all - dont care for xfce personally | 07:40 |
| patoe1 | kkathman : serious? i love xfce! | 07:41 |
| kkathman | thats what's great about linux - user's choice | 07:41 |
| patoe1 | lol yea | 07:41 |
| patoe1 | i have compiz and my linux is stacked | 07:41 |
| kkathman | I have compiz also | 07:42 |
| patoe1 | i have the destop cube, wobly windows its stacked, my freind wants me to install linux on this computer :p | 07:43 |
| Malique | Am I the only Linux user left who DOESN'T use compiz or beryl or any of those?!? LOL | 07:43 |
| patoe1 | his** | 07:43 |
| patoe1 | Malique : proboly | 07:43 |
| kkathman | patoe1: thats kewl you should | 07:43 |
| kkathman | Malique: no, there are lots of people that dont want to bother with the compiz stuff, so dont feel bad :) | 07:44 |
| patoe1 | yea i would but its kinda hard to find some linux programs | 07:44 |
| DarkestHour | Malique: i used to, then i went to kde4 and just used the default desktop effects it has. It seems to do just the right amount. | 07:44 |
| jerknextdoor | malique, i dont use any of them. but that's just because i havent tried to set i up yet | 07:44 |
| patoe1 | jerknextdoor: !compiz | 07:44 |
| kkathman | patoe1: like what kinds of linux programs are you looking for - hard to believe you cant find something | 07:44 |
| patoe1 | well i can find lost but there all .rmp or whatever and its hard to find .dem files or w/e i need | 07:46 |
| kkathman | you mean games then? | 07:46 |
| Malique | Fair enough, yer I've just never really been bothered with compiz or any of that | 07:48 |
| kkathman | Malique: compiz is nice for visual effect, but I'd say its really does nothing for productivity really. | 07:49 |
| kkathman | so alot of people dont bother | 07:49 |
| === sven_oostenbrink is now known as phoenixz | ||
| ubuntu | wow i just tried this live cd i burnt.i haven't tried linux in over a decade and man is it a lot less of a pain in the ass | 07:55 |
| === ubuntu is now known as SetiAmon | ||
| SetiAmon | one thing i don't hear is any audio | 07:56 |
| SetiAmon | No pnp Audio? | 07:57 |
| === dyve is now known as Divilinux | ||
| Malique | OK, is there a way to force ALSA to prefer one device on a sound card to another? | 08:00 |
| jerknextdoor | Seti: did you boot directly into the disk or are you using something like parallels or virtualbox? | 08:01 |
| SetiAmon | directly.just booted to the disk | 08:01 |
| SetiAmon | I mean i booted up the cd | 08:01 |
| jerknextdoor | that's what i meant. | 08:01 |
| SetiAmon | i was just wondering what i had to do to get sound working?i was surprised my wifi was picked up right away,thats pretty awesome | 08:02 |
| jerknextdoor | yeah...usually it's the sound and not the wifi with me atleast. haha. never had a problem with sound not working. sorry. | 08:02 |
| DarkriftX | yeah, very odd that wifi worked but not sound | 08:03 |
| DarkriftX | probably a driver issue | 08:03 |
| SetiAmon | Hmm its a x-fi | 08:03 |
| SetiAmon | hmm weird if i actually installed it i assume i would run into the same audio problem | 08:04 |
| SetiAmon | anyone know the url of a speed test that doesn't use java | 08:04 |
| DarkestHour | http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ | 08:05 |
| DarkestHour | that one uses flash | 08:05 |
| DarkestHour | SetiAmon: which x-fi card is it that you have? | 08:07 |
| SetiAmon | I meant one that Does NOT use java. | 08:07 |
| SetiAmon | xtreme music | 08:07 |
| jerknextdoor | speakeasy uses flash, not java. | 08:08 |
| DarkestHour | i'm checking some thigns for you about this, give me a sec. | 08:08 |
| DarkestHour | oi, it used to be flash, lol. | 08:08 |
| SetiAmon | err sorry | 08:08 |
| SetiAmon | i meant | 08:08 |
| SetiAmon | not java | 08:08 |
| SetiAmon | err | 08:08 |
| SetiAmon | not flash | 08:08 |
| SetiAmon | sorry i'm tired | 08:08 |
| jerknextdoor | it's all good | 08:08 |
| SetiAmon | its ok i just tried downlading a file.pretty goog speeds 80 kbps drops down to about 60 and then goes back up.seems more stable then on vista | 08:11 |
| DarkestHour | SetiAmon: most of the problems with vista is that it tends to throttle network connections when it plays any sound. It's wierd. | 08:11 |
| SetiAmon | since i switched to this wireless broadband its been pretty weird.it goes down real fast then climbs back up and then drops down again.i think it might be my 2.4 ghz wireless phones.I switched to G only before it was G and B mixed.i heard that might help but it seems to be not much different | 08:12 |
| DarkestHour | SetiAmon: as for you x-fi creative as per usual doesnt have proper drivers, they only provide a 64-bit BETA driver from what i can see there. | 08:12 |
| SetiAmon | dig.Do they have that open sound program | 08:12 |
| DarkestHour | here's the link for the Creative open source page, http://opensource.creative.com/soundcard.html#X-FI | 08:13 |
| SetiAmon | cool at least they have something | 08:15 |
| DarkestHour | yeah | 08:15 |
| DarkestHour | i have a client that runs an x-fi on a vista box, i had to install the hacked drivers for the thing to even work right, so i expect creative doesnt even think about their drivers much, | 08:17 |
| SetiAmon | I should say its all a lot simpler from what i remmeber.when i ran linux i never touched X because i didn't want to go threw the hasle.i just stayed in console | 08:17 |
| DarkestHour | i know whatyou mean. i've switched on and off from linux until about 1 year ago. | 08:17 |
| SetiAmon | Well i'm going to hit the hay for awhile | 08:19 |
| SetiAmon | thanks | 08:19 |
| maduser | whos seen the show balls of steel | 08:21 |
| maduser | ? | 08:21 |
| DrNoboto | so um, somehow the entire contents of /usr got erased | 08:29 |
| DrNoboto | i'm kinda screwed now | 08:30 |
| DrNoboto | i upgraded to 8.04 a little while ago and everything actually worked better than before | 08:30 |
| DrNoboto | until i realized i was booting the old kernel every time | 08:30 |
| DrNoboto | i tried booting the new kernel and it dumped me to a text login | 08:31 |
| DrNoboto | after a million "command not founds" | 08:31 |
| DrNoboto | hola | 08:32 |
| progmano1 | how can i install widgets in KDE 4.0.3? | 08:32 |
| DrNoboto | i dunno | 08:32 |
| DrNoboto | i'm still using 3 | 08:32 |
| DrNoboto | 4 looked too "bubbly" | 08:32 |
| Jucato | progmano1: #kubuntu-kde4 please | 08:33 |
| progmano1 | KDE 4.0.3 is okay. I'm just testing it | 08:33 |
| progmano1 | okay | 08:33 |
| DrNoboto | though for some reason my rc scripts are looking for kdm-kde4 now | 08:34 |
| DrNoboto | which of course doesn't exist since /usr is empty | 08:34 |
| progmano1 | why is your "/usr" empty? | 08:34 |
| DrNoboto | beats me | 08:35 |
| DrNoboto | i upgraded to 8.04 a little while ago | 08:35 |
| DrNoboto | and just realized i'd still been booting the old kernel | 08:35 |
| DrNoboto | so i tried booting the new one and it dumped me to a text login after a screen full of "command not founds" | 08:35 |
| progmano1 | so basically, you are running a bare shell on your Kubuntu computer? | 08:35 |
| DrNoboto | no, i was running a full desktop install | 08:36 |
| DrNoboto | ./usr just disappeared | 08:36 |
| DrNoboto | sounds crazy i know | 08:36 |
| progmano1 | i'm confused | 08:36 |
| DrNoboto | me too | 08:36 |
| progmano1 | is that in your home directory? | 08:37 |
| DrNoboto | no | 08:37 |
| DrNoboto | it's /usr | 08:37 |
| DrNoboto | my home directory is untouched | 08:37 |
| DrNoboto | so apparently is the rest of my system | 08:37 |
| progmano1 | what's the output of whereis kdm | 08:38 |
| progmano1 | ? | 08:38 |
| DrNoboto | i'd have to reboot to tell you | 08:38 |
| progmano1 | k | 08:38 |
| DrNoboto | shall i? | 08:38 |
| progmano1 | if you want to | 08:39 |
| DrNoboto | brb | 08:39 |
| progmano1 | k | 08:39 |
| DrNoboto | "command not found" | 08:44 |
| DrNoboto | how ironig | 08:44 |
| DrNoboto | -g+c | 08:45 |
| progmano1 | try whereis kwin | 08:46 |
| DrNoboto | whereis is the command that wasn't found | 08:46 |
| progmano1 | ah | 08:46 |
| progmano1 | that's strange | 08:46 |
| DrNoboto | i guess it was in /usr/bin | 08:47 |
| smurfslover | DrNoboto: my gutsy broke the same way a couple of days ago | 08:47 |
| progmano1 | yeah | 08:47 |
| smurfslover | don't know why | 08:47 |
| DrNoboto | really? | 08:47 |
| DrNoboto | that's so bizarre | 08:47 |
| smurfslover | the latest update i got was kde 4.0.3 | 08:47 |
| progmano1 | where is your kwin located? | 08:47 |
| smurfslover | afterwards even apt-get gave me a command not found | 08:47 |
| DrNoboto | uh oh | 08:47 |
| smurfslover | while i could still whereis it | 08:47 |
| DrNoboto | that's no good | 08:48 |
| DrNoboto | what'd you do? | 08:48 |
| DrNoboto | rip it down and reinstall? | 08:48 |
| smurfslover | luckily it's not my main os | 08:48 |
| smurfslover | i use pclinuxos as main | 08:48 |
| smurfslover | i installed kubuntu only for kde 4 | 08:48 |
| DrNoboto | ah | 08:48 |
| DrNoboto | it's almost like whichever partition i have mapped to /usr isn't being mounted | 08:49 |
| Malique | Can someone please help me find a way to PUNISH alsa for being so horrible? | 08:49 |
| progmano1 | that is really strange | 08:49 |

| steve__ | how do i login in as root in the terminal | 08:51 |
| progmano1 | DrNoboto, I'd say reinstall | 08:51 |
| eagles0513875 | steve__: su then the password | 08:51 |
| steve__ | thanks | 08:51 |
| eagles0513875 | im having more problems then i think suse on this laptop is worth to be honest | 08:52 |

| Jucato | !supportroot | 08:53 |
| ubotu | We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 08:53 |
| smurfslover | sudo su to become root | 08:53 |
| Malique | Anyone? | 08:53 |
| DrNoboto | problems as a result of having a root password? | 08:53 |
| DrNoboto | i have more problems without one | 08:53 |
| smurfslover | or sudo passwd root if you want to use su | 08:53 |
| progmano1 | DrNoboto: do you have apt-get? | 08:53 |
| Jucato | smurfslover: read above :) | 08:53 |
| eagles0513875 | Jucato: can u help me out i got this laptop back in december and with the regulary gutsy install hangs on formatting my partitions and on the alternate it installs just fine but it hangs on loading hardware devices does taht mean my hardware is just 2 new and 2ndly will the latest kernel fix these problems | 08:54 |
| DrNoboto | progmano1, i hope so | 08:54 |
| smurfslover | i can't live without a real root | 08:54 |
| smurfslover | lol | 08:54 |
| DrNoboto | i'm downloading the 8.04 cd now | 08:54 |
| eagles0513875 | smurfslover: yes u can | 08:54 |
| DrNoboto | eagles0513875: balderdash | 08:54 |
| progmano1 | if so just run "sudo apt-get reinstall kubuntu-desktop" | 08:54 |
| Jucato | smurfslover: sure. but maybe others can. or if you can live and support others as long as you live, be our guest :) | 08:54 |
| eagles0513875 | DrNoboto: what | 08:55 |
| DrNoboto | progmano1, hopefully i still have the packages. if not i'm downloading the cd now | 08:55 |
| DrNoboto | eagles0513875, that someone can live without a real root : 0 | 08:55 |
| DrNoboto | brb | 08:55 |
| eagles0513875 | DrNoboto: i can | 08:55 |
| eagles0513875 | lol | 08:55 |
| Jucato | eagles0513875: might be a bad burn? | 08:55 |
| Malique | Anyone who's not busy and/or sleeping? | 08:56 |
| eagles0513875 | they work just fine no problems when the cd's verified | 08:56 |
| DrNoboto | progmano1, and no sudo for me, since i have a real root : ) | 08:56 |
| eagles0513875 | then with gutsy my other problem is i have a nasty pnp bios bug | 08:56 |
| eagles0513875 | open suse is more of a headache then kubuntu | 08:57 |
| eagles0513875 | u kubuntu users have it really easy since gutsy came out with the restricted drivers manager | 08:57 |
| eagles0513875 | in all honesty i miss kubuntu | 08:58 |
| eagles0513875 | Jucato: is there a way prior to booting i can go into a cli and run a dist-upgrade and maybe taht way i might get it working | 08:59 |
| eagles0513875 | hold that thought need to restart my laptop to see if i have direct rendering | 09:00 |
| DrNoboto | apt-get: command not found | 09:03 |

| DrNoboto | i'm kinda without a paddle now aren't i? | 09:03 |
| DrNoboto | how do i install apt without apt? | 09:03 |

| smurfslover | DrNoboto: i had the same thing | 09:05 |
| smurfslover | aptitude doesn't work also | 09:05 |

| DrNoboto | with that name, i thought you'd be an expert | 09:07 |
| travkin | ubuntu: if you are using Kubuntu, yes | 09:07 |
| travkin | if Ubuntu - visit #ubuntu | 09:08 |
| ubuntu | yeah, it's kubuntu, but it's a GRUB related problem | 09:08 |
| travkin | ok | 09:08 |

| travkin | w8, i'm reboot | 09:10 |

| reindeer | Good morning all. I have two issues w/ peripherals and playlist-to-podcast conversions. | 09:14 |
| progmano1 | ok, start w/ the peripherals issue | 09:15 |
| reindeer | I'd likme to deal with reversing permissions on my Western Digital USB external 320 Gig. | 09:15 |
| progmano1 | ok | 09:16 |
| progmano1 | what are you trying to change? | 09:16 |
| progmano1 | use chmod | 09:16 |
| reindeer | I'm attemting to reverse the write permissions on the drive itself. | 09:16 |
| progmano1 | in unix, everything is a file and you can change the permissions of the files. | 09:18 |
| reindeer | I'm haviing a whale of a time divin' into xterm as root to change these write permissions so I am able to swap files as a normal user. | 09:18 |
| progmano1 | open a terminal and use sudo chmod | 09:19 |
| reindeer | How am I able to perform the function without damaging my proper root permissions allowed on the kernel? | 09:19 |
| reindeer | Will do. | 09:19 |
| progmano1 | what files are you trying to change the permissions of? | 09:20 |
| reindeer | All of my music/ vid files stored on my external. | 09:22 |
| JoshOvki | reindeer: so you just need people to have full access to an external drive? | 09:22 |
| reindeer | Only within my local network via Samba. I was able to write into these files a few weeks ago until I had to reboot my box. Since then, I couldn't write to my drive. | 09:24 |
| progmano1 | ah, you could run sudo chown -R user directory (-R is recursive and will change the ownership of all files within a directory) | 09:24 |
| reindeer | Lete me give that a shot. I'll brb. | 09:24 |
| steve__ | anyone failiar with john the ripper | 09:28 |
| reindeer | The command is not workin' out. Either I have too many arguments listed or something is seriously locking me out of my own drive. | 09:28 |
| DrNoboto | hmm | 09:28 |
| DrNoboto | mount -L /usr | 09:28 |
| DrNoboto | operation not permitted | 09:28 |
| DrNoboto | so /usr isn't being mounted | 09:28 |
| reindeer | k. brb. | 09:28 |
| DrNoboto | why could that happen? | 09:29 |
| crazy_bus | I need to split a file into multiple parts to transfer it on a usb stick. I looked in ark but I can't find any option to do it. Can anyone show me how to do it? | 09:30 |
| reindeer | I've asked myself the same question three weeks ago when I could no longer write/ swap files into the drive. THat's when I discovered the 501/ dialout for both user/ root. I realized, then, I was screwed after my reboot. | 09:30 |
| progmano1 | DrNoboto: what is the file name of the device (e.g. /dev/hda1)? | 09:31 |
| DrNoboto | it's /dev/hda8 | 09:31 |
| progmano1 | what filesystem does the partition have? | 09:31 |
| DrNoboto | probably rfs | 09:32 |
| === PhilRod_ is now known as PhilRod | ||
| reindeer | I'll poke into the /dev file and scope it out. | 09:33 |
| progmano1 | do you mean reiserfs? | 09:33 |
| DrNoboto | yes | 09:33 |
| progmano1 | rfs is remote file system | 09:33 |
| DrNoboto | oops | 09:34 |
| DrNoboto | definitely not that | 09:34 |
| DrNoboto | i meant reiser | 09:34 |
| progmano1 | post the contents of cat /etc/fstab | 09:34 |
| DrNoboto | that's not really possible | 09:35 |
| progmano1 | why not? | 09:36 |
| DrNoboto | unless i can find a usb stick around here | 09:36 |
| DrNoboto | i'm gonna try and mount it again, and check /var/log/messages | 09:37 |
| DrNoboto | i'll try to remember the fstab line | 09:37 |
| thomi | Does anyone know if I can get kubuntu packages for the Trolltech Qt 4.4 release candidate? | 09:38 |
| progmano1 | try mount -t reiserfs -o rw /dev/hda8 /usr | 09:38 |
| reindeer | The name of the external I'm working with is hfsplus. | 09:41 |
| reindeer | I ran the mount -L /usr command and the internal USB driver just bailed the drive. | 09:42 |
| reindeer | Any recommendations? | 09:43 |
| progmano1 | reindeer: that message was something DrNoboto tried on his pc. it wasn't a suggestion to you | 09:44 |
| reindeer | Man, I got overzealous on the fix. My bad. | 09:45 |
| progmano1 | reindeer: do you need to be able to read and write to the drive or only read the files? | 09:48 |
| reindeer | read and write the entire drive. | 09:51 |
| yao_ziyua1 | is there any easy way to clean up obsolete config files? | 09:55 |
| yao_ziyua1 | those .* in my user directory | 09:55 |
| reindeer | I've executed the sudo chmod -R ( directory ) to recursively unlock all files and redefine file permissions within the drive without success. | 09:55 |
| reindeer | I receive an " invalid mode " message in the xterm. | 09:56 |
| progmano1 | reindeer: try chmod -R u+rw directory (if you need other users to be able to access the files then use chmod -R ugo+rw directory) | 09:57 |
| reindeer | Ok. I'll give 'em a shot in the term and get back to you shortly. | 09:58 |
| Malique | Is there any feasible alternative to ALSA? If so, can someone please direct me to a HOWTO or something to help me replace ALSA? | 10:00 |
| CheGuevara | whats wrong with alsa | 10:01 |
| Malique | No matter what I do with it, it won't run on my card | 10:01 |
| Malique | https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3886 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/210865 are my bug reports with info about what's going on | 10:02 |
| Malique | But I seem to be the only one with this particular problem | 10:02 |
| Malique | And for that reason, I doubt there's gonna be a fix anytime soon, so I need to switch to something else | 10:04 |
| Malique | I know OSS works with my card, but I can't seem to get it set up right, and there's no up-to-date HOWTO's on getting it to run on Kubuntu | 10:04 |
| Malique | Any ideas? | 10:06 |

| reindeer | I'll be confounded if a simple reboot was all the drive needed to solve one of my issues. However, I'm now back to needing to restore my rw permissions as a user, not as root. | 10:38 |

| yao_ziyuan | what can be the cause? | 10:38 |
| yao_ziyuan | it's not in Read Only mode | 10:38 |
| Creationist | Dr_willis: I'm not opposed to using the terminal if I absolutely have to. I like the interface for Sound Juicer, but have no idea why it won't read it faster... | 10:39 |
| reindeer | What parent command and their oiption( s ) would I need to execute to retore the user/ group permissions to read and wrote to my external drive? | 10:40 |
| reindeer | options | 10:40 |
| Creationist | I mean, 20 minutes to rip one CD is a bit much. | 10:40 |
| reindeer | 5-7 minute rips are average, depending upon the drive you're using. | 10:42 |
| Creationist | reindeer: Right.. that's what i was expecting... but I can't find a ripper to rip at more than 4.5x. | 10:42 |
| Creationist | reindeer: I have a fairly new CD drive too. | 10:42 |
| reindeer | IDE or external? | 10:44 |
| algyz | Where is trash info, when I'm trying to empty it, it tels, that one file doesn't exist? | 10:44 |
| algyz | The file or folder /home/algimantas/.local/share/Trash/files/VTS_04_3.VOB does not exist. | 10:45 |
| Creationist | reindeer: It's an IDE DVD burner | 10:45 |
| reindeer | What's your read/ write speed for CD's in the drive? | 10:46 |
| Creationist | reindeer: Hmm... the actual CD's themselves, I'm not sure.... they're commercial audio albums. But I'm pretty sure the drive reads at 52x | 10:47 |
| llutz | read/write speed has nothing to do with the cdda-extraction-ability. | 10:47 |
| steve__ | anyone failiar with john the ripper | 10:47 |
| steve__ | anyone familiar with john the ripper | 10:48 |
| reindeer | 52x read is pretty nice. I'm only able to pull 48, although I purposely rip at a lower speed for a more thorough rip of the files( 40 or 44 ). | 10:49 |
| Creationist | reindeer: I wouldn't rip at 52x, but I definitely want more than 4.5. So any ideas? | 10:50 |
| llutz | Creationist: try konqueror "audio://" | 10:50 |
| reindeer | I will even go to my external USB/ Firewire DVD burner which will rip @ 52, though I dumb it down to 48 for the rip in k3b. | 10:51 |
| Creationist | reindeer: Wait, so K3b will rip too? | 10:51 |
| Creationist | heh, so it does. | 10:53 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| reindeer | You could go audio. K3B will automatically read your drive and will allow for you to rip 'em nicely. If you really wanna compress your files iinto .ogg( which I highly recommend ) after the rip, utilize SoundConverter for the job. the results are right on. | 10:55 |
| reindeer | The GUI is simple to use and a bit spartan, but that's the beauty of open source. | 10:56 |
| Creationist | reindeer: Hmm... K3b seems to be ripping faster, but doesn't report an actual speed. Does it not do .ogg correctly on it's own? | 10:57 |
| reindeer | Hope these tips will work out for you, Creationist:) | 10:57 |
| reindeer | I jump into K3B, then into SoundKonverter for the ,ogg conversions. | 10:58 |
| Creationist | But K3b rips directly TO ogg... why convert it separately? | 10:59 |
| reindeer | This is true. You can trust K3B to choose the correct rip speed for your device. | 10:59 |
| * Creationist is totally in love with K3b... always has been but now finds yet another reason to be. Gnome Baker my buttocks. | 11:00 | |
| reindeer | I always allow for k3b to rip into MP3 first. You do have a point iin the name of common-sense and simplicity. | 11:02 |
| reindeer | Creationist, I appreciate you opening my eyes this eve. I'll give K3b another gander for more than just rippin' my files the usual mp3 way, then going externally into SoundKonverter. | 11:07 |
| reindeer | Thank you kindly:) | 11:07 |
| reindeer | When you go into K3B, there should be a pulldown menu which will allow for you to choose your rip speed. | 11:08 |
| KubuntuJack | can i use 4GB with 32 bit k/ubuntu ? | 11:09 |
| reindeer | This relatively simple tweak prior to any k3B riup/ burn should do it. | 11:10 |
| reindeer | You should be able to use a 4 GB DVD with 32-bit k/ubuntu. | 11:11 |
| reindeer | I generally use x/ubuntu 32-bit Mac 400 Mhz CPU without any latency issues re: 4 GB DVD, KubuntuJack. | 11:12 |
| spine55 | help | 11:12 |
| reindeer | I'm still lookin' for a solution to a drive permission issue with my external. | 11:14 |
| KubuntuJack | reindeer: i'm not sure i understand your answer, let me rephrase. Does 32bit ubuntu support 4GB RAM, or do I need 64bit ubuntu to fully access it ? | 11:15 |
| reindeer | I thought you meant a DVD, not physical RAM. I have 1 GB RAM in my Mac box running 32-bit x/ubuntu w/out a problem. If you're running 4GB RAM, you may want to look into the possibly installing Ubuntu Server for the memory support, although this could be considered an overkill for most users. | 11:19 |

| Dr_willis | So you are saying the special 'multimedia' keys crash your machine. | 11:23 |
| Infecto | Dr_willis: yes | 11:23 |

| Nutubuntu | Alternatives to Firefox? Preferably browsers that don't crash so often? | 17:47 |
| DarkWizzard | Firefox 3 ? | 17:47 |
| DarkWizzard | Opera ? | 17:47 |
| DarkWizzard | Konqueror ? | 17:47 |
| Nutubuntu | DarkWizzard: FF3 is an improvement. Konq is too ... konqy, I guess.\ | 17:48 |
| DarkWizzard | FF3 is beta but I love it | 17:48 |
| DarkWizzard | Don't remember if it ever crashed on me | 17:48 |
| DarkWizzard | :) | 17:48 |
| marcio | windows??? | 17:48 |
| DarkWizzard | marcio: what's that ? | 17:48 |
| DarkWizzard | never heard of it :D | 17:49 |
| marcio | um sistema diferente ! | 17:49 |
| algyz | DarkWizzard: ff3 is crashing lots of times for me :( | 17:49 |
| DarkWizzard | I have the nightly build | 17:49 |
| algyz | !pt | marcio | 17:49 |
| ubotu | marcio: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 17:49 |
| DarkWizzard | maybe that's why | 17:49 |
| algyz | DarkWizzard: I'm using 3.0b5pre, and it's crashing often :( | 17:50 |
| Nutubuntu | Personally I think FF2 should be on the boot menu as the official RAM test ... I can run the memory test for days on end with no errors found, but run Firefox for five minutes ? Blammo. "It's bad RAM dude." | 17:50 |
| DarkWizzard | :) | 17:50 |
| DarkWizzard | I remember that feeling | 17:50 |
| DarkWizzard | but FF3 is a different story | 17:50 |
| DarkWizzard | the memory usage has decreased drastically | 17:50 |
| DarkWizzard | algyz: I'm using 3.0pre | 17:51 |
| Nutubuntu | I *think* FF2 has problems with the dual-core AMD CPU. That's a guess though ... | 17:52 |
| DarkWizzard | anyway: http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2008/03/05/webkit-demobrowser/ | 17:52 |
| DarkWizzard | Nutubuntu: swiftfox ? | 17:52 |
| Nutubuntu | FF3 > Swiftfox | 17:52 |
| DarkWizzard | yeah but Swiftfox _should_ solve the cpu support problem | 17:53 |
| Nutubuntu | Except that FF3 doesn't like some of my fav add-ons | 17:53 |
| DarkWizzard | well | 17:53 |
| DarkWizzard | AFAIK none of them | 17:53 |
| Nutubuntu | :) that's them | 17:54 |
| algyz | Nutubuntu: don't you think it's offtopic? :) | 17:54 |
| algyz | !offtopic | Nutubuntu | 17:54 |
| ubotu | Nutubuntu: #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! | 17:54 |
| DarkWizzard | yeah | 17:55 |
| DarkWizzard | we know. But it's silent now | 17:55 |
| DarkWizzard | :) | 17:55 |
| algyz | OK, I see :) | 17:55 |
| Nutubuntu | No, algyz's right, my bad. | 17:55 |
| algyz | I think it's ok, silent here now :) | 17:55 |
| algyz | But #kubuntu-offtopic is even more silent :( | 17:56 |
| DarkWizzard | I'll set it on autojoin | 17:56 |
| algyz | I did it already :D | 17:57 |
| Nutubuntu | On-topic question. Sometimes my kubuntu desktop is much wider than my monitor -- I mouse to the right and the screen scrolls until I reach the right edge of the desktop -- and sometimes it's monitor-size. What controls this? and how do I turn it on and off? | 17:59 |
| BluesKaj | Nutubuntu, widescreen or reg 4:3 ? | 18:00 |
| Nutubuntu | BluesKaj: I think reg 4:3 -- can scroll down too (the menu thingie is w-a-a-a-y down there) | 18:01 |
| BluesKaj | Nutubuntu, what is your resolution set at in system settings/monitor & display | 18:02 |
| Nutubuntu | BluesKaj: that's the odd thing: 1280x1064 | 18:02 |

| tuxi | anoyne knows which module i have to load to get nat running | 18:06 |
| BluesKaj | Nutubuntu, what driver is the monitor using, the generic linux or custom or the hardware specific driver for your monitor ? | 18:07 |
| tuxi | for ip masquerading | 18:07 |
| Nutubuntu | BluesKaj: generic driver "Plug n Play" | 18:09 |

| BluesKaj | Nutubuntu, have you tried finding linux drivers for your monitor in the system settings/monitor&appearance/hardware/admin mode/monitor/configure | 18:13 |
| llutz | tuxi: -t nat not net | 18:16 |
| tuxi | -_- thanks ... | 18:16 |

| linus_ | hi what is the command line arg for installing tar.gz files | 19:52 |
| DrNoboto | intalling them? | 19:52 |
| linus_ | yeah im a nube | 19:52 |
| DrNoboto | that depends | 19:52 |
| linus_ | if the file is downloaded on the desktop | 19:52 |
| DrNoboto | read the installation directions for the particular thing you're trying to install | 19:52 |
| algyz | linus_: it's tar :) | 19:53 |
| DrNoboto | tar will extract them | 19:53 |
| DrNoboto | that's not the same thing as install | 19:53 |
| algyz | Agree | 19:53 |
| DrNoboto | maybe that's what he means though | 19:53 |
| algyz | linus_: It's written in readme file | 19:53 |
| linus_ | right | 19:54 |
| linus_ | how do i get flash from the command line | 19:54 |
| === emilsedgh_ is now known as emilsedgh | ||
| algyz | linus_: is it mounted? | 19:54 |
| linus_ | mounted?! | 19:54 |
| DrNoboto | you want to access your flash drive? | 19:55 |
| algyz | linus_: or adobe flash? | 19:55 |
| linus_ | no a flash pluging for the web | 19:55 |
| linus_ | yep | 19:55 |
| algyz | Ah, ok :) | 19:55 |
| DrNoboto | ah, you need to install the browser plugin | 19:55 |
| algyz | linus_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 19:55 |
| DrNoboto | so i figured out a little bit more why my /usr directory tree is empty | 19:56 |
| DrNoboto | it's failing to mount on boot | 19:56 |
| DrNoboto | when i try to mount it manually i get a "operation not permitted" | 19:57 |
| alx75775 | hi! little prob here, i formatted a hdd, mounted it but still cannot write on it.. anyone an idea how to solve this? thanks! | 19:57 |
| DrNoboto | my other reiserfs partitions are already mounted so it doesn't seem to be a problem with support for the filesystem itself | 19:58 |
| alx75775 | the konsole says "according to mtab" its already mounted | 19:59 |
| DrNoboto | when i try to reiserfsck the partition it just returns me to a command prompt | 19:59 |
| algyz | alx75775: sudo fdisk -l | 19:59 |
| DrNoboto | without much information | 19:59 |
| alx75775 | thx algyz , ill check it out | 19:59 |
| DrNoboto | this particularly sucks because it means /usr/bin is gone too | 19:59 |
| linus_ | ok i have tried that but on the kubuntu install, it did not give me an option a p/w for the root account so when i try su i have no password | 19:59 |
| DrNoboto | so i have no apt, no pico, no whereis, etc... | 19:59 |
| BlackAura | algyz: Thanks for the help! Fixed my sources.list and it seems to be downloading them all now :d | 19:59 |
| algyz | :) | 19:59 |
| BlackAura | algyz: Took a while because somewhere it suggested an apt-get clean, which deleted all the ones I had downloaded already :s | 20:00 |
| linus_ | ok i have tried that but on the kubuntu install, it did not give me an option a p/w for the root account so when i try su i have no password | 20:03 |

| Venson | Hey all. I'm using Kubuntu 7.04 and having issues with sound (slow, with lots of static). My soundcard is Ensoniq 1371. Many weeks of googling and recompiling of alsa drivers has proven fruitless. Can someone help? | 20:05 |

| simulous | I Set up unbuntu on a virtual machine on my laptop and was able to play avi movies from over my network from a windows server 2003 file share which i played using VLC. It worked no problem but i got board with Gnome and wanted KDE so i set up Kubuntu... but now when i try to do the same thing (stream avi's from my server 2k3 box) on kubuntu it firsts copy's the file, then plays it and doesnt stream and i cant figure out why :o( | 20:18 |
| algyz | alx75775: are you from denmark? | 20:19 |
| simulous | pleeeeeeease help me with this, im new to linux and its breakin me down :o( | 20:19 |
| Nyad | algyz: I meant where can I find these ubotu commands that you are typing | 20:19 |
| algyz | Nyad: just type ! before any command | 20:20 |
| alx75775 | no germany | 20:20 |
| alx75775 | 09 | 20:20 |
| algyz | Ok :) | 20:20 |
| Venson | simulous: just mount the network share to your local system (using Samba, say) and play. That's probably the best way to do this | 20:20 |
| Nyad | yes but isn't there a page that has all of the commands that are available | 20:20 |

| simulous | Venson thanks i will try, i even tried the open with "vlc" option but still it copies it. | 20:21 |
| Venson | simulous: if you do it my way, it will no longer copy | 20:21 |
| Venson | simulous: once you map the share, it's like an extension of your local system. the program can't tell the difference | 20:22 |

| DrNoboto | where can i find help with reiserfsck? | 20:22 |
| algyz | !reiserfs | 20:23 |
| ubotu | reiserfs is a journalling file system, which outperforms many others on I/O operations, but has drawbacks (such as increasing likelihood of data loss, and introducing latency unsuitable for gaming or real-time audio). Using !ext3, the default on Ubuntu, is *highly* recommended. A read-only Windows driver is available at http://p-nand-q.com/download/rfstool.html | 20:23 |

| Venson | Hey guys, I see two things registered on the same interrupt on my machine (specifically "uhci_hcd:usb1, Ensoniq AudioPCI") which i think might be the reason for my issues with sound. How do i change "Ensoniq AudioPCI" to use a different interrupt? | 20:24 |
| === darkwizzard_ is now known as DarkWizzard | ||
| algyz | ronnie: nvidia's are cool, believe me :) | 20:24 |
| algyz | !sound | Venson | 20:25 |
| ubotu | Venson: 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 | 20:25 |
| ronnie | thx algyz, but this nvidia tnt2 card can't seem to handle too much on the screen at once, when I play tremulos =) | 20:27 |

| algyz | ronnie: well, my gf 6200 running like a wind in tremulous :D | 20:28 |

| Jucato | zorglu_: Digikam has a built-in image editor | 20:34 |
| Jucato | AngryBacon: yeszz | 20:34 |
| Jucato | er, I meant yesZ | 20:34 |
| fdoving | zorglu_: i do that on the commandline with the imagemagick tool 'convert' | 20:34 |
| * AngryBacon is trying to learn dvorak, lol | 20:34 | |

| * fdoving waves back at jucato. | 20:35 | |
| chantalall | there is the 900 but not the 900 | 20:35 |
| zorglu_ | Jucato: ok... but apparently it is willing to polute my harddrive in ~/pictures or something | 20:35 |

| zorglu_ | fdoving: ok will look | 20:35 |
| chantalall | "there is the 800 but not the 900" * | 20:36 |
| Jucato | zorglu_: ah Digikam needs to create a database for its collection, much like Amarok. it defaults to ~/Pictures unless you set it | 20:36 |
| Jucato | (though there might be a way to launch only the editor...) | 20:36 |
| zorglu_ | Jucato: do you know how much polution it put ? is it tolerable ? | 20:37 |
| zorglu_ | because convert has no man page | 20:37 |
| Jucato | zorglu_: actually it doesn't put any pollution | 20:38 |
| zorglu_ | Jucato: ok i clicked ok then :) | 20:38 |
| Jucato | you recall in Amarok that you need to point it to some directories to search for files to add to its Collection? | 20:38 |
| zorglu_ | Jucato: i failed to understand amarok up to now :) | 20:38 |
| Jucato | hehe ok. bad analogy then :P | 20:38 |
| Jucato | basically it just needs a folder (just one) for which it wil use as a source for its image collection | 20:39 |
| zorglu_ | Jucato: seems like a good one :) nothing about image in digikam, they talk about 'album' | 20:39 |

| BlackAura | quick question | 23:20 |
| BlackAura | is anyone else having problems getting .deb's from http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-356-pre-feisty-upgrade/ ? | 23:20 |
| BlackAura | Everything I try to get from there is zero bytes | 23:20 |
| MrJoey | I have a question about the bugzilla voting system: If I use 20 vote points to vote on a bug, will I be able to use those vote points later after the bug has been resolved, or will those points simply be gone? | 23:21 |
| RogueJediX | BlackAura: Yeah, just tried downloading some random ones now. no dice | 23:22 |
| BlackAura | RogueJediX: cool, not just me...thanks.......anyone know of a mirror? | 23:22 |
| Nyad | is there a kubuntu repository with packages compiled for bleeding-edge computers? | 23:27 |
| BlackAura | Sooooo, no one knows of a kubuntu.org package mirror? Since apparently some of the .deb files are broken? | 23:30 |
| RogueJediX | BlackAura: Sorry, can't think of any | 23:30 |
| Nyad | BlackAura: what are you using atm? I can't help but I;m just curious | 23:32 |
| BlackAura | Nyad: trying to access http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-356-pre-feisty-upgrade/ to get the packages, to upgrade to feisty, but all the .deb files are 0 bytes when downloaded. | 23:32 |
| BlackAura | Also when I was updating from dapper -> edgy, I had the same problem but managed to find a mirror....unfortunately they dont' have the pre-feisty folder mirrored | 23:33 |
| Nyad | but what if you get the CD? can you upgrade it that way? | 23:34 |
| BlackAura | hmmm, that's quite possible... | 23:35 |
| ibou | hi | 23:38 |
| BlackAura | oh well, I've got edgy working now, who should I alert to the fact that the kubuntu.org repository is doing weird things and all .deb files are 0 bytes? | 23:39 |
| ibou | i'd like to split tracks on a big ape file. Is it possible ? | 23:39 |
| RogueJediX | ibou: I'm no audio expert, but I think you need a cue file for that or you could convert it to wav and do it yourself | 23:41 |
| ibou | RogueJediX: ok. If i have the cue file How should i porceed? | 23:43 |
| RogueJediX | ibou: I'd first convert the ape file into something K3B can burn, then I'd burn it on a CD using the cue file and then I'd rip the tracks | 23:45 |
| RogueJediX | ibou: There's probably an easier way, though. Like I said, I'm not an expert on such things | 23:45 |
