| _ZeuZ_ | heya | 00:19 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Over hardy here, x86_64 | 00:19 |
| mafitzpatrick | hows thigns? | 00:19 |
| mafitzpatrick | same here + kde4 | 00:20 |
| _ZeuZ_ | any idea where to get a deb for flashplayer? | 00:20 |
| mafitzpatrick | hows it going for you? | 00:20 |
| mafitzpatrick | is it not in the repos? it's working fine for me | 00:20 |
| mafitzpatrick | although a bit crashy since last update | 00:20 |
| mafitzpatrick | you want: | 00:21 |
| _ZeuZ_ | thing is I don't want to be emulating a 32bits system... | 00:21 |
| mafitzpatrick | flashplugin-nonfree | 00:21 |
| _ZeuZ_ | thing is I don't want to be emulating a 32bits system... | 00:21 |
| mafitzpatrick | ah. no choice i'm afraid. currently the flash plugin is wrapped version of 32bits | 00:21 |
| mafitzpatrick | doesn't really make any difference tbh | 00:21 |
| _ZeuZ_ | it does on performance | 00:21 |
| mafitzpatrick | although it seems buggy at the moment | 00:22 |
| _ZeuZ_ | how's Gnash by the way? | 00:22 |
| babban | hallo | 00:22 |
| mafitzpatrick | Zeus: do you notice the performance difference in flash? I wouldn't think it would be that big | 00:22 |
| _ZeuZ_ | performance wrapping and adapting 32 bits over 64 bits kernel is lowered the hell out of what it should be... | 00:22 |
| mafitzpatrick | last time i used gnash it was not good... but isn't flash open source now? or something? | 00:22 |
| mafitzpatrick | Zeuz: well, then i take it back :) i was probably talking shit | 00:23 |
| mafitzpatrick | hi babban | 00:23 |
| babban | somebody is good on computer here... | 00:23 |

| _ZeuZ_ | and to select the correct protocol | 00:30 |
| babban | yeah i done babban85@hotmail.com | 00:30 |

| kanadian | can anyone help with KPF shares? | 00:35 |
| babban | messenger.hotmail.com 1863 is right??? | 00:36 |
| _ZeuZ_ | read the display ? xD | 00:36 |
| _ZeuZ_ | You don't need to touch that | 00:36 |
| _ZeuZ_ | that's the server of Hotmail dispatchers | 00:36 |
| babban | yeah now i wanna type thats its coming up... | 00:37 |
| babban | kde crashsystem | 00:37 |
| _ZeuZ_ | babban: reinstall it. | 00:38 |
| babban | the signal 11( sigsegv) | 00:38 |
| babban | how?? | 00:38 |
| kanadian | yeah, thats a crash babban | 00:38 |
| babban | i dont know how to install it on that?? | 00:38 |
| kanadian | reinstall via adept manager | 00:39 |
| babban | run commander ( adept manager)?? | 00:39 |
| _ZeuZ_ | or: apt-get remove kopete && apt-get purge kopete && apt-get install kopete | 00:39 |
| _ZeuZ_ | (of course, as root) | 00:40 |
| kanadian | K>System>Adept Manager | 00:40 |
| kanadian | works like Windows Add/Remove dialog | 00:40 |
| _ZeuZ_ | well, I'm a native Debian user, testing hardy, and I rely more on command line though | 00:40 |
| kanadian | I know, but he seems new and thats probably the easiest way | 00:41 |
| babban | now im in adept hant.. where i wanna type that?? | 00:41 |
| kanadian | the console is the all powerful tho :D | 00:41 |
| _ZeuZ_ | yup ^^ | 00:42 |
| kanadian | just type in 'kopete' | 00:43 |
| Firefishe | I'm running kubuntu feisty. Konqueror keeps opening individual windows when I click on even a tree folder. How do I disable this? | 00:43 |
| babban | now..:D | 00:44 |
| babban | but i where i will get it from now?? | 00:45 |
| kanadian | babban in adept manager type in Kopete (then right click it and request removal) | 00:45 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Firefishe: The options on it are your answer | 00:45 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Firefishe: Just browse them, and you'll find what you're seeking... | 00:46 |
| kanadian | then do the same search and reinstall it | 00:46 |
| babban | i have done. | 00:46 |
| Firefishe | _ZeuZ_: I've been browsing for a while now, and I can't seem to find the answer, hence why I'm asking here. | 00:46 |
| babban | and then install again?? i have done already | 00:46 |
| babban | its right?? | 00:46 |
| Firefishe | _ZeuZ_: What do you mean by "options?" | 00:46 |
| kanadian | you may have to restart your system. but try and run it again | 00:46 |
| _ZeuZ_ | open Konqueror | 00:47 |
| kanadian | firefishe: are you using d3lphin? | 00:47 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Gotto sentings, configure konqueror, there are your options | 00:48 |
| Firefishe | kanadian: no, I'm running kde 3.5.6. I tried 7.10, but had trouble with it, so I went back to Feisty. Using anything later on this five year old lappie wouldn't notice a performance increase, anyway. | 00:48 |
| Firefishe | Dolphin did weird things | 00:48 |
| kanadian | anybody have experience with KPF shares? | 00:49 |
| babban | excuss me?? but i done like u said but that come up again that are crashed | 00:49 |
| babban | i think thats wrong from the dvd i install that from.. | 00:50 |
| kanadian | babban, the only thing I can suggest is to restart your computer and try again. beyond that, repairing anything is out of my league. sorry | 00:50 |
| _ZeuZ_ | and, that is related to koepete, not to Kubuntu itself also ;) | 00:50 |
| babban | wanna restart my computer and try again??? | 00:51 |
| _ZeuZ_ | how-to add on-demand cpu policy on cpu policy? | 00:51 |
| kanadian | give it a try babban | 00:51 |
| kanadian | zeuz...laptop or desktop? | 00:53 |
| Firefishe | _ZeuZ_: Under the Settings-Configure Konqueror-Behavior Button dialog, there is a checkbox at the top listed as: "Open folders in separate windows" . Normally, one would think that this would be checked, and that unchecking it would disable the behavior. The thing is, it's not checked, and it doesn't seem to have any effect either way. | 00:53 |
| kanadian | firefishe: thats weird | 00:53 |
| Firefishe | _ZeuZ_: I'm thinking there is a global override specific to kubuntu, perhaps. | 00:53 |
| Firefishe | And ubuntu in general | 00:53 |
| kanadian | try K>System Settings> Window Behavior | 00:53 |
| Firefishe | k | 00:53 |
| kanadian | zeuz: kpowersave allows you to change your cpu frequency polling | 00:54 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Well, dunno about that... | 00:54 |
| _ZeuZ_ | As I said before, I'm a native Debian user, where all software uses it's own properties, and config files, mainly without global glitches.. | 00:55 |
| _ZeuZ_ | kanadian: yes, but not to ondemand | 00:55 |
| _ZeuZ_ | only dynamic, powersave and performance | 00:55 |
| Firefishe | kanadian: nothing to do with how konqueror opens windows | 00:55 |
| Firefishe | _ZeuZ_: I had a very nice install of Etch, until my file system went blooie. | 00:55 |
| _ZeuZ_ | ondemand equals powesave, with the difference that it highers the CPU frequecy as it touches the 100% of the minimal power | 00:55 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Firefishe: Well, that depends | 00:56 |
| _ZeuZ_ | It's not a debian problem, but, a filesystem problem | 00:56 |
| babban | isnt working... | 00:56 |
| Firefishe | on what? ;) | 00:56 |
| kanadian | firefishe: im not sure. sorry | 00:56 |
| _ZeuZ_ | I normally use EXT3 for base system, and ReiserFS for /home | 00:56 |
| babban | no debuggning symbols is found | 00:57 |
| Firefishe | _ZeuZ_: Yes, I know. I just happened to have to have the Feisty disc handy, so... ;) | 00:57 |
| _ZeuZ_ | lol ^^ | 00:57 |
| _ZeuZ_ | I use SID anyways... | 00:57 |
| _ZeuZ_ | but, if you want stability with no backports, then use Lenny ^^ | 00:58 |
| _ZeuZ_ | you might also have been able to recover it from a single user mode with fsck | 00:58 |
| kanadian | can anyone help with KPF Shares? | 01:00 |
| kanadian | sigh...google is of no help | 01:01 |
| _ZeuZ_ | kanadian, what's with them? | 01:01 |
| babban | i will think i will download kubuntu 8.04??? | 01:02 |
| _ZeuZ_ | babban, take in count it's beta right now. | 01:02 |
| _ZeuZ_ | I'm using it... | 01:02 |
| kanadian | _ZeuZ_: i set up the server..installed nfs and samba support | 01:03 |
| _ZeuZ_ | performance has improved... | 01:03 |
| _ZeuZ_ | did you configure samba, and nfs? if it's just for sharing it with Windows pc's, only use SAMBA | 01:03 |
| kanadian | zeuz: I can access the server from firefox on my linux lappy but can't access it on the windows vista desktop next door | 01:03 |
| oneeyedelf1 | how do I install libdvdcss in hardy | 01:04 |
| kanadian | zeuz: its apparenly equal to samba only with kpf you can't go from windows>kpf...only kpf>windows | 01:04 |
| _ZeuZ_ | next door = on your network? or from other network? | 01:04 |
| _ZeuZ_ | oneeyedelf1: same way any other debian based one ;) Gotto synaptic, browse, install it. | 01:04 |
| kanadian | zeuz: next room over/on my network | 01:05 |
| _ZeuZ_ | no, you gotta configure samba first xD | 01:05 |
| kanadian | accessed via http://laptopname:8001/ | 01:05 |
| babban | but the kubunt i was downloaded was on 3,8 gb i that one only on 700 gb??? | 01:05 |
| babban | its that good?? | 01:05 |
| oneeyedelf1 | _ZeuZ_: its not in the repos | 01:05 |
| Jucato | 700gb? O.o | 01:06 |
| kanadian | oneeyedelf1: have you enabled extra repos? | 01:06 |
| _ZeuZ_ | it should be. Using the live CD or the Internet repositories? | 01:06 |
| oneeyedelf1 | I enabled software restrictedby copyright or legal issues | 01:07 |
| _ZeuZ_ | oneeyedelf1: goto konsole | 01:07 |
| _ZeuZ_ | run apt-get update | 01:07 |
| _ZeuZ_ | as root | 01:07 |
| _ZeuZ_ | (with sudo) | 01:08 |
| babban | downloading it... | 01:08 |
| babban | but that are only uppdate?? | 01:08 |
| _ZeuZ_ | babban, well, mostly, and a new kernel implemented. | 01:08 |
| jords | oneeyedelf1: if that does'nt work, try medibuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 01:08 |
| babban | dont can restore all the computer with it.. so the kopete?? will be fixed?? | 01:09 |
| oneeyedelf1 | the package doesn't exist in the repos | 01:10 |
| _ZeuZ_ | I think you're misunderstanding things here. | 01:10 |
| _ZeuZ_ | oneeyedelf1: Definetly, you are using only the live cd repo | 01:10 |
| _ZeuZ_ | you gotta add the online ones, | 01:10 |
| _ZeuZ_ | check /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:10 |
| oneeyedelf1 | oneline? | 01:11 |
| Matt1728 | is there anyway to make a shortcut to minimize and unminimize all windows ? | 01:12 |
| _ZeuZ_ | oneeyedelf1: The repositories are not only on your CD ROM, there are online mirrors | 01:12 |
| oneeyedelf1 | yeah and I have them enabled | 01:13 |
| _ZeuZ_ | And ONline Mirrors, are more complete than the ones that come with the live CD | 01:13 |
| oneeyedelf1 | yeah and the online ones don't have libdvdcss | 01:13 |
| _ZeuZ_ | tell me what is the content of your /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:13 |
| jords | oneeyedelf1: add thos repo, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu for libdvdcss... | 01:14 |
| oneeyedelf1 | http://rafb.net/p/J35fh986.html is my apt sources | 01:14 |
| _ZeuZ_ | once again | 01:16 |
| _ZeuZ_ | apt-get update | 01:16 |
| oneeyedelf1 | I don't think anything changed between the last minute I did that | 01:16 |
| _ZeuZ_ | try doing this: | 01:18 |
| _ZeuZ_ | sudo apt-get install libdvdcss | 01:18 |
| _ZeuZ_ | if you cant, I'll find you the debs, and you'll download it to a directory and then dpkg -i all of them | 01:19 |
| oneeyedelf1 | nvm figured it out, installed the medibuntu repo | 01:21 |
| jords | yeah always found that easiest for libdvdcss.. | 01:21 |
| oneeyedelf1 | and found out the other issue, its libdvdcss2 not just libdvdcss | 01:22 |
| _ZeuZ_ | loool | 01:22 |
| oneeyedelf1 | now my system flies, if only flash included prober hardware scalling I would be totally happy with my linux system | 01:23 |
| _ZeuZ_ | you mean multiple architecture s? | 01:23 |
| PeterFA | I need a program that let's me select a character and place it on the clip-board. | 01:28 |
| PeterFA | Like MS charmap. | 01:28 |
| PeterFA | I can't find one in the repository. | 01:28 |
| rootlinuxusr | halp. | 01:30 |
| rootlinuxusr | 500gb drive says bad blocks, dmesg doesn't detect =/ | 01:30 |
| _ZeuZ_ | dmesg doesn't detect what? | 01:31 |
| _ZeuZ_ | try fsck on single user mode. | 01:31 |
| rootlinuxusr | doesn't detect the drive, but it's dev/sdc | 01:31 |
| _ZeuZ_ | has it got any partition? is it formated? have you tried mounting it? | 01:32 |
| rootlinuxusr | tried mounting, it had a partition, and formatted...should have stuff on it | 01:32 |
| _ZeuZ_ | what has it got in it? | 01:33 |
| _ZeuZ_ | try mounting it like mount -t FILESYSTEM /dev/sdX /mnt/Some_DIR_that_you_created | 01:33 |
| rootlinuxusr | stuff that i can lose... | 01:33 |
| rootlinuxusr | mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc /media/test | 01:34 |
| rootlinuxusr | Failed to access '/dev/sdc': No such file or directory | 01:34 |
| _ZeuZ_ | try mounting it like mount -t FILESYSTEM /dev/sdX /mnt/Some_DIR_that_you_created | 01:34 |
| _ZeuZ_ | then it's not /dev/sdc xD | 01:34 |
| _ZeuZ_ | describe your hardware | 01:34 |
| rootlinuxusr | atm, lappy hard drive, another usb drive, speakers, and this one | 01:35 |
| _ZeuZ_ | I mean, how are they connected? | 01:35 |
| _ZeuZ_ | at hardware level | 01:35 |
| _ZeuZ_ | if its not connected individually, along with 3 drives, then it's not sdc, it can be sda or sdb | 01:36 |
| rootlinuxusr | the two usb drives are plugged in via USB, one is an enclosed can't open the other has a IDE cable and 4-ply | 01:36 |
| rootlinuxusr | The device '/dev/sdb' doesn't have a valid NTFS. | 01:37 |
| rootlinuxusr | so maybe it's sdb? | 01:37 |
| cpk1 | to mount it needs to be /dev/sdXY | 01:37 |
| cpk1 | X is a letter Y is a number | 01:37 |
| cpk1 | the number is the partition number | 01:37 |
| _ZeuZ_ | perhaps | 01:37 |
| _ZeuZ_ | try executing df and see there | 01:37 |
| rootlinuxusr | udev 449284 132 449152 1% /dev | 01:38 |
| rootlinuxusr | though don't think that's it. | 01:38 |
| cpk1 | try mounting /dev/sdc1 if there is only one partition on that drive | 01:39 |
| rootlinuxusr | [36349.391785] usb 1-3: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 | 01:39 |
| rootlinuxusr | from dmesg | 01:39 |
| wpk | rootlinuxusr: not sdb, sdb1 | 01:42 |
| wpk | or sdb2, or sdb3 | 01:42 |
| rootlinuxusr | sdb1 is my other external that im about to unplug for sanities sake | 01:43 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| rootlinuxusr | okay removed both, plugged just this one dmesg says it device found at 4, sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] 976773168 512-byte hardware sectors (500108 MB) | 01:47 |
| rootlinuxusr | so i tried mounting sdb, sdb1, sdb2, sda, sdc, nothing mounts it =[ | 01:48 |
| rootlinuxusr | end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 0 | 01:48 |
| rootlinuxusr | Buffer I/O error on device sdb, logical block 0 | 01:48 |
| rootlinuxusr | when i try to open what I think it is in qtparted, it says Critical error during ped_disk_new! | 01:49 |
| rootlinuxusr | i just want a piece of the 3.1415.... | 02:06 |
| NickPresta | rootlinuxusr, sorry, I ate it all =( | 02:07 |
| rootlinuxusr | damn.... | 02:07 |
| rootlinuxusr | so if mount doesn't detect it, and dmesg says it's sdb, and i've tried every possible /dev spot...how can i fix it? | 02:08 |
| rootlinuxusr | it might be of note to say that both win, and kubuntu hang when this is plugged in when it's starting, i unplug it and it stops hanging.. | 02:10 |
| wayneward | just decided im goin back to debain its better ta ta | 02:13 |
| mafitzpatrick | haha | 02:13 |

| billyd | I was going to from 7.04 to 7.10 and the DVD seems finky. Apt can't read some files | 02:14 |
| rootlinuxusr | reburn | 02:14 |
| billyd | Think I'll wait on 8.04 and upgrade at LUG meeting | 02:14 |
| BluesKaj | the arcane app choice during the debiamn install turns a lot of ppl off | 02:15 |
| BluesKaj | err debian :) | 02:15 |
| BluesKaj | I don't mind kde4 apps , they seem ok except for amarok , so far , but the plasma desktop isn't my cuppa tea | 02:17 |
| lovely | hello dale | 02:20 |
| billyd | What is wrong with Amarok BluesKaj - other than it doen't handle many sound formats with out extra help? | 02:21 |

| LoneShadow | Hi, I upgraded to hardy, and logitech g5 mouse stopped working, whats the best way to fix this issue ? | 02:22 |
| billyd | Just bookmarked that for future reference | 02:22 |
| alain_ | hi guys got prob here. i downloaded kubuntu without kde4.. how will i be able to install kde4 with it? | 02:22 |
| BluesKaj | billyd , it's pre-alpha and crashes when I try to stream internet radio | 02:22 |
| LoneShadow | checking in #ubuntu+1 as well | 02:23 |
| BluesKaj | just download and install it like any other app, then choose it in the login menu if you wish to use it for a session | 02:23 |
| billyd | If I can't get Amarok up and streamimg, I'm gonna see about downloading Helix | 02:24 |

| naught102 | is there any way to get the automatically created links to usb drives to point to /media/device-name/ instead of media:/sdb2, etc? | 02:39 |
| naught102 | from the k desktop + media panel applet | 02:40 |
| GrueTamer | mount /dev/sdb2 /media/foo ? | 02:41 |
| naught102 | GrueTamer: is already is mounted correctly there, but the shortcuts point to media:/sdx# | 02:46 |
| naught102 | .desktop files, what ever | 02:47 |
| naught102 | they automatically mount correctly, just the links are incorrect | 02:48 |
| naught102 | I mean, correct, just not as nice. | 02:48 |
| Jucato | media:/ links are just sort of "convenience" URLs. the real mount points are still in /media | 02:48 |
| Dr_willis | yea it pays to be carefull with the filemanager, and then trying to access the same place with the shell. | 02:48 |

| hazard | How do I determine which version number I'm on? | 03:26 |
| * hazard finds it humorous that he can find his kernel version, but not Kubuntu version. :-P | 03:27 | |
| hazard | I found aircrack-ng in adept, but not aireplay-ng or airodump-ng. Not that my adept isn't broken anyway, but at least it helps me find packages I can install from the command line. | 03:34 |
| hazard | Damn it all. Adept crashed again. | 03:36 |
| adude | where does vlc player save its snapshots? | 03:46 |

| rootlinuxusr_ | ?* | 03:47 |
| adude | thanks | 03:48 |
| hazard | Any idea what repository I need to be able to install airodump-ng? | 03:48 |
| hazard | It seems that one of the defaults has kismet and aircrack-ng, but not airodump-ng or aireplay-ng, and Google is being less than forthcoming with the answer. | 03:48 |

| maduser | ? | 05:12 |
| * dwidmann doesn't | 05:12 | |
| maduser | dial up? | 05:12 |
| maduser | why? | 05:12 |
| dwidmann | maduser: I think that'd be ADSL? | 05:13 |
| dwidmann | maduser: (PPP over ethernet) | 05:13 |
| maduser | ah | 05:14 |
| maduser | i always thought that was dial up | 05:14 |
| mefisto__ | I'm trying to change the file browser/manager firefox uses (eg, when you right-click your downloads list and "open containing folder"). Currently it's using thunar (default for xfce) and I want it to be konqueror | 05:21 |
| === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq | ||
| o_0 | yeah.. i use pppoe.. that's probably what you call dial up.. and it suddenly stopped working with kubuntu on my machine.. no idea what went wrong suddenly. | 05:28 |
| dwidmann | o_O: well .... is it detecting your modem? | 05:29 |
| matthew | How can I get updates? I just installed 7.10 and I am online but I don't see any icon for updates showing up... | 05:30 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: how should i check for that? | 05:30 |
| mefisto__ | matthew: have you tried "sudo apt-get update" ? | 05:31 |
| matthew | mefisto__: nope... let me try that! | 05:31 |
| dwidmann | o_O: Well, what sort of modem is it, and how does it connect to your computer? | 05:31 |
| matthew | mefisto__: The apt-get update method says there are no updates.. it listed the CDs as sources.. so it must not be checking the web. | 05:32 |
| kkathman | evening all | 05:33 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: we have a LAN here.. and my computer connects to the net through that LAN. our service provider does not give any information about the kind of modem or anything else :( | 05:33 |
| dwidmann | :S | 05:33 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: i used pon / poff for connecting / disconnecting and it was working fine since the last 6 months or so.. | 05:34 |
| dwidmann | Hmmmm | 05:34 |
| mefisto__ | matthew: ok, you need to change your sources. The easiest way is probably doing it in Adept Manager (should be in System menu) | 05:34 |
| matthew | mefisto__: yes.. just did that. | 05:34 |
| dwidmann | I've got nothing o_O: if it worked before, I would try downloading the older version of the package and force-installing that, and maybe it will work again? | 05:35 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: suddenly stopped workin on kubuntu 7.10 and ubuntu 7.04 but its still working fine in windows.. all three systems on the same machine | 05:35 |
| mefisto__ | matthew: then just click "fetch updates" in adept | 05:35 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: i never upgraded the package.. :( | 05:35 |
| dwidmann | o_O: it just stopped working out of the blue? That's really odd then.... | 05:36 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: some people told me that pppoeconf goes for a toss if the ISP changes anything at their backend.. don't know if that could be it | 05:36 |
| dwidmann | o_O It might be an issue with your provider | 05:36 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: yeah.. its really odd.. | 05:36 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: probably.. | 05:36 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: but it still works with windows! | 05:37 |
| matthew | mefisto__: after adding the sources.. I just did the apt-get update thing.. and it's still working.. | 05:37 |
| dwidmann | o_O: I'd ask them directly if I were you, if they aren't completely retarded they might even be able to help you.; | 05:37 |
| matthew | mefisto__: I had to real install because I sent my laptop back to repairs and they wiped out the drives.. put XP back on them... | 05:38 |
| matthew | mefisto__: it's nice having sound though.. one of these updates I know wipes out my sound, for some reason. | 05:38 |
| o_0 | <dwidmann>: they "don't recommend / or support" using linux..can u believe that.. and we have no choice out here coz he's the only provider in our area.. :( | 05:38 |
| mefisto__ | matthew: so it's working now? or not working? | 05:38 |
| matthew | mefisto__: it seems to be working... | 05:39 |
| matthew | ah done.. | 05:39 |
| matthew | I will reboot | 05:39 |
| dwidmann | o_O: I wonder if pppoe has any sort of debugging options at all. Maybe you could somehow figure out something you could change on your end to force it to work. | 05:39 |
| kkathman | what is the name of the k-menu applet and can you change its icon?? | 05:41 |
| o_0 | dwidmann: hmm.. trying.. couldn't figure out anything so far.. isn't there any other pppoe package robust enough to adjust to such changes like that one? .. i dont know what change though :( | 05:41 |
| * dwidmann starts apt-cache searching for o_O | 05:41 | |
| * o_0 thanks dwidmann for help | 05:42 | |
| mefisto__ | kkathman: it's called "K Menu" in the applet list, and you can change the icon if you replace the current one with another (with the same filename and location) | 05:42 |
| * o_0 wishes there was an apt-cache on doze too :P | 05:43 | |
| kkathman | mefisto__: do you know where I could find it? | 05:43 |
| kkathman | mefisto__: I knew the name in the applet list - but was wondering how to change its icon | 05:43 |
| dwidmann | Well, other related packages include pppoeconf, pppoe, guessnet, br2684ctl, hwinfo, pppstatus, and a few libs - so nothing that looks like clients, but maybe something like hwinfo, guessnet, or br2684ctl could give you some information about the network that you need (I don't know, just an idea) | 05:44 |
| dwidmann | @ o_O | 05:45 |
| mefisto__ | kkathman: if you're using the default crystalsvg kde icons, it should be /usr/share/icons/crystalsvg/32x32/kmenu.png (32x32 = separate directories for different icon sizes) | 05:45 |
| kkathman | mefisto__: terrific thank you sir! | 05:46 |
| mefisto__ | kkathman: tastymenu is an alternative menu that lets you choose an icon in the menu's settings. You might like to try it | 05:47 |
| kkathman | mefisto__: I can aptitude install that? | 05:47 |
| mefisto__ | kkathman: actually, I'm not sure. I think I may have downloaded the .deb from http://www.getdeb.net | 05:49 |
| mefisto__ | http://www.getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=tastymenu | 05:50 |
| kkathman | mefisto__: also at kde-look.org :) | 05:50 |
| kkathman | seems the deb would be better since you can just dpkg -i it | 05:51 |
| mefisto__ | kkathman: just opening the deb should start gdebi to install it | 05:51 |
| kkathman | mefisto__: you mean from like dolphin? Hmm nice - I always had to dpkg -i the file :) | 05:52 |
| hollen19 | In the KDE4 preview I lost the 'K gear' application launcher menu and when I replace it it will not go in the lower left. How do I move it back to where it came from? | 05:53 |
| o_0 | dwidmann: hey thanks for the list.. thanks a ton.. | 05:53 |
| * o_0 using windoes based IRC client.. it sux. it doesnt even let him know when he's pinged :( | 05:54 | |
| kkathman | mefisto__: very nice :) thanks :) | 05:55 |
| mefisto__ | hollen19: I'm not sure how you move it in the taskbar, but you can add the menu widget to the desktop, then drag that one to the position you want | 05:55 |
| mefisto__ | kkathman: you installed tastymenu? | 05:56 |
| dwidmann | o_O: No problem | 05:56 |
| kkathman | mefisto__: yep...works like a champ - it appears as an applet you can choose by "add applet to panel" | 05:56 |
| hollen19 | mefisto__: I just tried but the icon disappears behind the panel. | 05:57 |
| mefisto__ | kkathman: I was using both menus for a while :) | 05:57 |
| kkathman | mefisto__: suse had a nice slab-like menu, but more elegant, that was pretty nice, but too many keystrokes | 05:58 |
| tifine | I am getting this error message whenever i try to open something KLanucher couldnt reached via DCOP | 05:58 |
| hollen19 | mefisto__: Hrmm.. I cannot find any "add applet to panel" but I can grow and shrink and rotate it. | 06:00 |
| tifine | how to restart a process e.g. klauncher | 06:01 |
| tifine | ? | 06:01 |
| kkathman | aww man no avant window manager :( | 06:03 |
| kkathman | navigator I mean, sorry | 06:04 |
| mefisto__ | hollen19: and you can't drop it onto the panel? | 06:04 |
| hollen19 | mefisto__: No it just slides behind the panel. I can hide it completely behind if I try. | 06:05 |
| mefisto__ | hollen19: have you tried asking in #kde4 ? | 06:07 |
| hollen19 | mefisto__: No. I thought I'd start here. | 06:08 |
| hollen19 | But I will thanks. | 06:08 |

| lod__air | hi, when I try to open app. trough console i've receive message: cannot open dispay | 12:59 |
| lod__air | how to setup display, I'm using fgrlx driver | 13:00 |
| PhilRod | lod__air: you probably just want to start the app from a konsole in your kde session, instead of from the terminal | 13:01 |
| lod__air | yes | 13:02 |
| lod__air | I know I can start it with Alt+F2 | 13:02 |
| PhilRod | lod__air: sorry, I'm confused - are you trying to start the app from a "konsole" within KDE, or from the terminal you get to with Ctrl+Alt+F<something>? | 13:03 |
| lod__air | i wan to run fgl_glxgears from konsole | 13:03 |
| PhilRod | can you paste (pastebin if it's long) the exact error message you get? | 13:04 |
| lod__air | Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyError: couldn't open display (null) | 13:04 |
| lod__air | or with other app | 13:05 |
| lod__air | (thunderbird-bin:13733): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0 | 13:05 |
| PhilRod | what does "echo $DISPLAY" say? | 13:05 |
| lod__air | :0.0 | 13:05 |
| PhilRod | are you using a different user perhaps? | 13:06 |
| lod__air | no | 13:06 |
| lod__air | btw | 13:06 |
| lod__air | yes | 13:06 |
| lod__air | root | 13:06 |
| lod__air | so stupid | 13:06 |
| lod__air | 10x | 13:06 |
| PhilRod | heh | 13:08 |
| lod__air | why I cannot start app with root from konsole? | 13:08 |
| jussio1 | !enter | 13:08 |
| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 13:08 |
| lod__air | must I be loged in ass rot | 13:08 |
| Pici | !root | lod__air | 13:09 |
| ubotu | lod__air: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:09 |
| lod__air | i've setuped root's password | 13:09 |
| PhilRod | it's to do with the way X decides whether to allow other users to access the display | 13:10 |
| PhilRod | which in turn is to do with the fact that X is fundamentally a network-transparent multi-user system | 13:11 |
| PhilRod | if you just want to allow any user on your system to access your display, you can do something like: | 13:11 |
| lod__air | but root is the super user, hasn't he got the privilige to do so? | 13:11 |
| PhilRod | xhost +localhost | 13:11 |
| PhilRod | <log in as another user> | 13:11 |
| PhilRod | <some X app> | 13:11 |
| PhilRod | no, it's just one of the quirks of how X works. Well, actually, it's probably possible, but indirectly | 13:12 |
| lod__air | 10x, your help was verry helpful | 13:13 |
| lod__air | where can I read about how X works? | 13:14 |
| PhilRod | if you're interested in some of the technical details, the documentation from the linux doc project might be good | 13:14 |
| PhilRod | it's the sort of stuff I learnt from back when I started | 13:14 |
| PhilRod | tldp.org | 13:14 |
| lod__air | i preffer something lighter.. for a beginer | 13:15 |
| lod__air | but 10x anyway I will look in it | 13:15 |
| PhilRod | probably the (k)ubuntu documentation then | 13:15 |

| makdaknife | adrock358: obviously if you are using ntfs s/vfat/ntfs | 14:21 |
| makdaknife | adrock358: and of course, specify the correct device node to mount (e.g. /dev/hda1; /dev/sdb1; /dev/sda2); depending on where your windows partition is | 14:23 |
| makdaknife | once mounted, you should be able to open konqueror and browse to /media/floppy to access your disk | 14:23 |
| makdaknife | adrock358: is any of this making sense to you? | 14:24 |

| zeuz | not everything is easily emulabe | 16:06 |
| genii | sigma_: It's been specifically tweaked to run MS Office stuff specifically | 16:06 |
| zeuz | though, things like Photoshop, will run | 16:06 |
| zeuz | genii: not only iy. | 16:06 |
| zeuz | Check their database. | 16:06 |
| sigma_ | ah ok i see, thanks guys | 16:06 |
| Dr_willis | Floppy Disk? How Quaint. :) | 16:06 |
| genii | I would suspect it may ask for a floppy if you have some storage device configured as one. Some bios allow usb storage to be seen as floppies, etc | 16:08 |
| zeuz | damn damn damn... how do I reduce the ammount of memory it's using? I don't want swap to go into for doing nothing on the system with 1,5gb+ of RAM memory | 16:08 |
| chi_ | pici fact is, i installed on my brand new desktop a kubuntu gusty and it didn'T do any installation untill i found a hint, that i have to disable floppy drives in bios | 16:09 |
| chi_ | and that made the trick | 16:09 |
| zeuz | how do I change the kdm theme? | 16:12 |
| zeuz | !change kdm theme kubuntu | 16:12 |
| zeuz | @change the kdm theme kubuntu | 16:12 |
| Dr_willis | theres a kdm theme tool you use | 16:12 |
| zeuz | Hmmm... no bots here? | 16:12 |
| kuta | how can I edit the source list | 16:12 |
| Dr_willis | !find kdm | 16:12 |
| ubotu | Found: kde-kdm-themes, kdmtheme, kdm | 16:12 |
| Dr_willis | kuta, its a text file. use any text editor. (with root priviliges) | 16:12 |
| zeuz | kuta: nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 16:13 |
| zeuz | (as root) | 16:13 |
| Dr_willis | zeuz, you frogot the sudo :) | 16:13 |
| zeuz | hehe I specified it before your last reply ;) | 16:13 |
| Dr_willis | heh heh.. and rember in nano ^o = CONTROL KEY - O | 16:13 |
| kuta | Dr_willis: how | 16:13 |
| zeuz | Still on the question, How to change KDM theme on Kubuntu? | 16:13 |
| zeuz | kuta | 16:13 |
| Dr_willis | i had to explain to a guy the other day | 16:13 |
| zeuz | you have to do exactyl this> | 16:13 |
| Dr_willis | zeuz, use the kdmtheme tool. | 16:13 |
| kuta | yes | 16:14 |
| zeuz | sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 16:14 |
| zeuz | Dr_willis: Thing is, through KDE mangar, it's not there, oin the same place in my debian is. | 16:14 |
| Dr_willis | zeuz, kde manager? I just login and run the kdmtheme tool. | 16:14 |
| zeuz | it won't run, neither from terminal running $ kdmtheme | 16:15 |
| Dr_willis | Its running here for me.. You did install it? | 16:15 |
| zeuz | Default installation of HArdy | 16:15 |
| Dr_willis | Oh wait thats not the right name.. what is the name.. heh | 16:15 |
| kuta | zeuz: I have edit the source list, how to save? | 16:16 |
| zeuz | CTRL (control key) plus O | 16:16 |
| Dr_willis | sudo kcontrol ---> System Admin --> kdm theme. | 16:16 |
| zeuz | Dr_Willis, located it | 16:16 |
| zeuz | not on it, not on the config files. | 16:16 |
| zeuz | so I located it and run it. | 16:16 |
| Dr_willis | Heh heh teres a reason i says that ^o = Control o earlier. :) | 16:16 |
| kuta | thanks | 16:17 |
| Dr_willis | nano could really use a little comment in the window telling people that. | 16:17 |
| zeuz | Dr_Willis, any idea on my above question? (how to reduce theammount of memmory it's taking for doing anything?) | 16:17 |
| zeuz | Nano HAS that | 16:17 |
| zeuz | it says WriteOUT | 16:17 |
| Dr_willis | zeuz, no idea. I dont worry about it much | 16:17 |
| zeuz | ^^ | 16:17 |
| Dr_willis | zeuz, it dosent say what ^ actually means.. | 16:18 |
| zeuz | My debian runs faster, consuming less memory, even with Compiz-Fusion running | 16:18 |
| Dr_willis | ive had many a total noob look at me and aak.. How did yu learn that ^ = ctrl. | 16:18 |
| Dr_willis | zeuz, never noticed any differance on my machines between debian and ubuntu. | 16:18 |
| zeuz | Because I code in Pyhthon, Visual Basic and TCL ^^ | 16:19 |
| aomegax | ciao | 16:19 |
| zeuz | you never looked deep in them, because even being based upon Debian, it differs. | 16:19 |
| Dr_willis | Egads! this machins is using some swap! :) out of my 4 machines.. only this one.. heh. | 16:19 |
| aomegax | hi | 16:19 |
| zeuz | like in things such as root being virtualized, not accesible trhough su but still accesible trough sudo su | 16:19 |
| Dr_willis | zeuz, i know they differ. ive never seen any SPEED or MEMORY ussage differances | 16:20 |
| Dr_willis | of course never did any real benchmarking either. | 16:20 |
| Dr_willis | THere was some company making some linux benchmark tools i saw the other day. I forget who. | 16:20 |
| zeuz | as for now, doing really nothing, and I only have 84 mb of ram free, while doing anything like here, without cmpiz, only konverstaion and superkaramba, i would have 800++ | 16:20 |
| Dr_willis | Ive learned over the years of reading forums and threads on memory ussage of linux to let it alone. and it does a darn good job. Sorry i dont know how to tweak it other then to say close down apps,, but even then - it will use all it wants as disk cache. so Unles I am using swap - i dont worry about memory. | 16:22 |
| zeuz | wasnt mem the command to find out how many memory is in buffer? | 16:22 |
| Dr_willis | 'free' command | 16:22 |
| zeuz | tested it too | 16:22 |
| zeuz | command not found | 16:22 |
| zeuz | I'm indignated with Hardy xD | 16:22 |
| SlimeyPete | top will also show memory usage | 16:22 |
| Dr_willis | Never noticed not being installed by default.. I dont recall ever installig it. | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | YOu may want to check out 'htop' also. | 16:23 |
| SlimeyPete | you sure it's not just your cache? | 16:23 |
| zeuz | top will show me less detail on what I'm seeking | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | Id almost bet its the cache. | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | htop - has a lot more info. then normal top i belive. Looks nicer also | 16:23 |
| cannon | !compiz | 16:23 |
| 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 | 16:23 |
| SlimeyPete | I mean, I have 8MB free on this machine and I consider that normal | 16:23 |
| zeuz | it has a good ammount cached... but not as much to render this usage | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | but there may be better memory monitoring tools out. | 16:24 |
| ubuntu | cool | 16:25 |
| zeuz | Hmm... it also has a bad memory on harddrive check in d3lphin | 16:25 |
| zeuz | patches patches... this beta should still be alpha | 16:25 |
| zeuz | even Experimental (on Debian) runs smoother in that two aspects... | 16:25 |
| zeuz | evne though, I ralize the difference on propietary drivers and firmware being more automatical. | 16:26 |
| Dr_willis | Then stop using the beta.. or go file bugs.. or to ask about it in #ubuntu+1 | 16:27 |
| Dr_willis | or all 3 :) | 16:27 |
| Dr_willis | or pick any of the above. heh.. | 16:27 |
| zeuz | neh, I'm just testing this to realize if gOs is really based on Ubuntu or not... and gosh, it runs smooth (gOs) definetly based on Debian, cuz of the packet managing and it has also merged RPM to apt-get without ALIEN | 16:28 |
| Dr_willis | I do think the dolphin file manager needs a bit of work. (i hate it) :) | 16:28 |
| zeuz | hell yeah! konqueror ftl! | 16:28 |
| Dr_willis | gOS is ubuntu + the enlighement desktop and a lot of little tweaks. | 16:29 |
| zeuz | and, base system is also pretty different. | 16:29 |
| Dr_willis | Ive played with gOS for some time. DIdent care for it much however. | 16:29 |
| Dr_willis | the core of gOS is ubuntu, ive installed the gOS stuff on ubuntu machines, and visa versa. | 16:29 |
| zeuz | I love apt-get being able to manage RPM and DEBS... still tgz or pcbsd are the best packages for performance IMO | 16:29 |
| zeuz | That doesn-t mean anything dude | 16:30 |
| zeuz | you can install anything in any system, from source, or from packages. | 16:30 |
| Dr_willis | go to the gOS site and read all about it. | 16:30 |
| zeuz | dependencies and stuff, do not form part of the core system | 16:30 |
| zeuz | same I say, go and read ;) | 16:30 |
| Dr_willis | you add the one gos repo and you an install it. Its using Ubuntu for a large # of its repos last i look at its sources.list | 16:30 |
| zeuz | core system = kernel, plus native tools | 16:30 |
| zeuz | and gnu/tools | 16:30 |
| zeuz | so what? | 16:31 |
| zeuz | same could do on Debian, or MINT | 16:31 |
| Dr_willis | I cant say that i noticed the kernel being any differnt on the gOS install vs the Ubuntuinstall. | 16:31 |
| zeuz | I did.. | 16:31 |
| zeuz | Directly managed the propietary firmware and drivers as first thing to do. | 16:31 |
| Dr_willis | same version # same package I think. but i got rid of gOS the other day so cant check. | 16:31 |
| Dr_willis | geubuuntu is another disrto similer to gOS. | 16:31 |
| zeuz | again, packets do not determine de base system xD | 16:31 |
| Dr_willis | they renamed it the other day. | 16:31 |
| zeuz | neither the Desktop it runs | 16:31 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: geubuntu got renamed to opengeu i think | 16:32 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, yea.. it really dident have much going for it either when i tried it. | 16:32 |
| Odd-rationale | I'm not a too big fan of enlightenment... | 16:33 |
| Dr_willis | I imagine we will see a lotof these vaiants vanish in the next year. | 16:33 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, i hear ya there. It gets a lot of press and hype.. but dosent seem to really live up to it. | 16:33 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, is Linspire actually ubuntu based now also? I thought i saw it in a list of ubuntu variants the other day | 16:34 |
| Odd-rationale | If I want lightweight, i'd do my own install of xfce4 (not xubuntu) or fluxbox. | 16:34 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: Yes linspire is ubuntu based. | 16:34 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah, the latest release of Linspire is Ubuntu-based | 16:34 |
| Dr_willis | I was playing with xfce for a week or so. - the file manager... had.. some odd quirks.. | 16:34 |
| Odd-rationale | Actually, I found a new one that looks pretty good called lxde (lightweight X Desktop Enviroment) | 16:36 |
| Dr_willis | I noticed the other day with it. i would 'shift click' on somthing to get the 'delete' menu item to show. and it would select a range by mistake. | 16:36 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, I saw that in the list the other day also | 16:36 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: i tried lxde on an old laptop. works pretty good. Might use it insead of fluxbox. | 16:37 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, ive gotten where i tend to use Jwm wheni want somthing minimal | 16:37 |
| Dr_willis | Fluxbox just annoys me in ways :) | 16:37 |
| Dr_willis | I set up the wife with jwm, and a little menu of the 10 things she wants.. and thats it. She dont need no of the fancy-fluxbox stuff. | 16:38 |
| kuta | how to tell the version of my kubuntu? | 16:38 |
| Odd-rationale | jwm and icewm looked interesting. but I could not keep the menus looking nice... | 16:38 |
| Odd-rationale | kuta: lsb_release -a | 16:38 |
| Dr_willis | I was playing with 'matchbox' for a while.. but its to 'specific' for its intended tasks. | 16:38 |
| kuta | is there a gui method? | 16:39 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, whats to look nice, :) just some text.. well i think they can do icons. but i remove those. | 16:39 |
| Dr_willis | kuta, ya could typeed that in the time it took to ask. heh | 16:39 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: organization... It is a pain to do manually... | 16:39 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, yep. The use of the menu files is a bit of an annoyance. | 16:40 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, 'wmx' just uses a directory with links for its menu. its very minimal also | 16:40 |
| kuta | I mean in ubuntu I can find the gui method, in k I cannot find | 16:40 |
| Dr_willis | I think it was wmx.. it has the odd on the side title bar. | 16:40 |
| Dr_willis | kuta, i never noticed any gui method for lsb_release -a, I just open up a shell and typoe the command. | 16:41 |
| kriptix | genii wat does it mean when i get a error that says in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail. | 16:41 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: what's wmx? | 16:41 |
| === kriptix is now known as Kr|ptiX | ||
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, a rather old. VERY VERY minimal window manager. | 16:41 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: similar to wmii ? | 16:41 |
| Dr_willis | it predates wmii by quite a few years. | 16:42 |
| genii | Kr|ptiX: Don't know, haven't seen that | 16:42 |
| Dr_willis | i was thinking the compiled binary for wmx was like.. 1 mb :) | 16:42 |

| === dyve is now known as Divilinux | ||
| Dr_willis | http://www.all-day-breakfast.com/wmx/ | 16:42 |

| Dr_willis | and only recently did there get any actual MAIL on the list. :) | 16:43 |
| zeuz | !compiz | 16:44 |

| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: I went through a phase of trying to be very minimalistic. Kind of got over it by now... | 16:44 |
| Dr_willis | Odd-rationale, yep. I stick with jwm. :) | 16:44 |
| Dr_willis | all i need in feture is a launcher, and app list. and perhaps a clock.. | 16:45 |
| Dr_willis | icewm has way too many ugly themes. | 16:45 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: for me, if it runs kde fine, use kde! | 16:45 |
| Dr_willis | oh yea.. and nice large fonts in the menus so i can read them | 16:45 |
| Dr_willis | some of my machines are just ssh terminal box's mainly. :) | 16:45 |
| Dr_willis | all they show is a few xterms. heh | 16:46 |
| Odd-rationale | otherwise it is fluxbox or perhpas lxde if it shows better promise... | 16:46 |
| Dr_willis | i used sawfish for ages.. :) | 16:47 |
| zeuz | the one that DSL uses, is cool if are minimalist | 16:47 |
| Odd-rationale | Dr_willis: we're way ot... :) | 16:47 |
| Odd-rationale | dsl uses both jwm or fluxbox. | 16:47 |
| Dr_willis | i was thinking the latest DSL used jwm, | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | that may of been PuppyLinux ,, heck it may be both | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | Puppy did have a nice jwm theme setup. | 16:48 |
| Odd-rationale | you can switch between jwm and fluxbox in dsl | 16:48 |
| Odd-rationale | puppy > dsl | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | I did notice that when i installed OpenBox on this kubuntu system it added a Openbox-KDE session | 16:49 |
| Dr_willis | which seemed a little strange. :) wonder why thers no fluxbox-kde or whatver-kde for the other ones. | 16:49 |
| Dr_willis | 100+ items in the kdm sessions menu. heh | 16:50 |
| Dr_willis | Menu Clutter - the upcomming disaster! Soon your menu will take up more ram then the rest of the OS! | 16:51 |
| Keule | hi there | 16:52 |
| Dr_willis | Wow - i just noticed icewm That im using now - has like 100 themes in its theme menu. | 16:52 |

| Matt1728 | is there anything better than k9copy that doesn't crash with copyrighted dvds | 17:16 |
| rabindra | please help me | 17:19 |
| ere4si | rabindra: open up adept package manager - search for synaptic - click to install | 17:20 |
| Odd-rationale | rabindra: if you are using kubuntu, it is a better idea to use adept instead of synaptic. | 17:20 |
| rabindra | Package synaptic is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 17:20 |
| rabindra | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 17:20 |

| astan | hello. where's the standard place to put iptables rules on *buntu/debian? i've only set up routers using BSD, so i'm used to pf.conf. | 18:18 |
| astan | i just need to set up a simple NAT. | 18:18 |
| astan | with standard place i mean so that it's read at startup. | 18:19 |
| genii | astan: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/where-is-iptables-config-file-584024/ | 18:20 |
| astan | genii: thanks a bunch. | 18:21 |
| genii | babban: Please ask your question more clearly | 18:21 |
| genii | astan: You should check the differences in rules between bs and linux, one uses first-match-wins , the other uses last-match-wins (you can't just use a bsd rule in linux) | 18:22 |
| MetaMorfoziS | Hi all | 18:22 |
| astan | genii: yea. i have used netfilter on linux a _long_ time ago, i'll just find some basic NAT config somewhere. | 18:25 |
| astan | btw how come *ubuntu doesn't have a /etc/init.d/iptables or similar for initializing iptables rules? | 18:26 |
| genii | astan: I don't know offhand | 18:27 |
| astan | genii: okay. | 18:27 |

| ubuntu | hello | 18:30 |
| ubuntu | I have a question on booting into kde | 18:31 |
| rysiek|pl | fire at will, ubuntu | 18:31 |
| ubuntu | I just upgraded (I have a fairly fresh install) after the upgrade I get to the command prompt and I get dropped off there. Bus wont talk me all the way home. | 18:33 |
| ubuntu | now I am on the Live CD | 18:33 |
| ubuntu | how can i get the system to boot into KDE like I had before? | 18:33 |
| ubuntu | sing | 18:34 |
| ubuntu | Using 7.10 | 18:34 |
| ubuntu | hello? | 18:35 |
| genii | ubuntu: You're getting some "dbus" error? | 18:38 |
| ubuntu | no, I just need to know how to boot into kde automaticly | 18:39 |
| ubuntu | after I upgraded, it decided to boot to the c-prompt | 18:40 |
| TeslaTony | Where can I go to learn more about MySQL? | 18:42 |
| Pici | TeslaTony: #mysql perhaps ;) | 18:42 |
| TeslaTony | Durrrrr....thanks! | 18:43 |
| babban | somebody know where too get the drivers to sound?? | 18:43 |
| ubuntu | hello? | 18:44 |
| genii | ubuntu: Upgrading should not have affected what window manager the computer was booting to. | 18:44 |
| genii | ubuntu: So that the answer to your question is not so simple | 18:44 |
| * genii ponders "c-prompt" | 18:45 | |
| rabindra | Odd-rationale: ya, I needed help with configuring wine, it shows only one application, i.e. Notepad | 18:45 |
| Odd-rationale | rabindra: what do you want ti install? | 18:45 |
| ubuntu | yeah i know, but my experience when upgrading is when you have ALLOT of files it will do this | 18:45 |
| ubuntu | c-prompt = command prompt | 18:45 |
| you_idiot | sound question, help please. If I start amarok the music plays through usb phone - if I unplug phone and start amarok I get : xine was unable to initialise any audio drivers. I have /dev/dsp1 but no /dev/dsp | 18:46 |
| genii | ubuntu: Perhaps try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 18:46 |
| rabindra | Odd-rationale: i wanted to run windows applications using wine, that is what it's used for, right? | 18:47 |
| ubuntu | what is the boot log/file that tells the system to start up into KDE | 18:47 |
| Odd-rationale | rabindra: yes. what windows app do you want to install. wine comes with only one: notepad. | 18:47 |
| ubuntu | ok, cool. I dont ahave the commands down yet | 18:48 |
| jermain | hi everyone | 18:48 |
| genii | ubuntu: kdm is the KDE Login Manager, it is what should come up graphically and ask for name/passowrd to go into KDE with | 18:48 |
| rabindra | Odd-rationale: whichever application I can, any exe file, do I need to install it separately in wine, can't I just open my C: drive and run any exe file using wine? | 18:49 |
| you_idiot | cat /dev/null > /dev/dsp1 | 18:49 |
| Odd-rationale | rabindra: yes. you will need to install it sparately in wine | 18:49 |
| ubuntu | I know. I need to bott into that when I start my system up | 18:49 |
| ubuntu | boot | 18:49 |
| jermain | i got me an external hard disk but kubuntu doesn recognize it (neither does vista) Iįøæ thinking i should be doing more than just connecting it | 18:50 |
| jermain | any advice? | 18:50 |
| Odd-rationale | rabindra: you would do "wine file.exe" to open the exe. | 18:50 |
| Odd-rationale | rabindra: wine has it's own c: drive located in ~/.wine/drive_c | 18:50 |
| ubuntu | what is the root command? | 18:50 |
| fdoving | jermain: is it formatted? | 18:50 |
| jermain | iįøæ guessing it isnt | 18:50 |
| ubuntu | ~s? | 18:50 |
| jermain | but i dunno how to do it | 18:50 |
| Odd-rationale | !wine | rabindra | 18:51 |
| ubotu | rabindra: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 18:51 |
| ubuntu | sudo isnt working on this command ---- > dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 18:51 |
| genii | ubuntu: If you have both kdm and gdm (Gnome Display Manager) then: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm will let you choose kdm there. If only kdm installed then just the: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm (to choose kdm and not kdm-kde4 from there) | 18:51 |
| fdoving | jermain: open synaptic package manager, install the package 'gparted' then run it as root. alt+f2 'kdesu gparted' - to exec it. | 18:51 |
| jermain | k | 18:52 |
| genii | ubuntu: Perhaps then kdm is currently not installed/configured. To try: sudo apt-get install kdm | 18:52 |
| ubuntu | oh wait, I know why its not working | 18:52 |
| ubuntu | (that command at least) I'm on the Live CD | 18:52 |
| ubuntu | lol, I'm an idiot | 18:52 |
| jermain | fdoving; installing now | 18:53 |
| rabindra | Odd-rationale: thanks for all the help | 18:54 |
| rabindra | Odd-rationale: i will again ask if anything comes up | 18:54 |
| Odd-rationale | rabindra: no problem. also be sure the check the wine appdb before trying to install any thing.., | 18:54 |
| Odd-rationale | !appdb | 18:54 |
| ubotu | The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org | 18:54 |
| jermain | fdoving; WOW it detected the hardware (finally)! | 18:56 |
| maroo | hello, is there a way to disable the "zoom effect" when clicking on icons in the panel and konqueror | 18:56 |
| genii | ubuntu: assuming sda1 as old / :sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/;sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev;sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys;sudo mount -t proc proc /mnt/proc;sudo chroot /mnt and then from there now any command which needs to be executed such as the sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 18:56 |

| jermain | fdoving; oh wait it found the ntfs partitions where vista is installed | 18:57 |
| fdoving | jermain: you can select harddisk device in the upper right corner, if i remember correctly. | 18:57 |
| fdoving | it's a dropdown-button-thing. | 18:57 |
| jermain | sdb | 18:58 |
| jermain | i found it | 18:58 |
| jermain | its all unallocated | 18:58 |
| fdoving | then you need to create a partition there. | 18:58 |
| genii | If it's unallocated but previously ntfs with a windows install, the windows is almost certainly bye-bye now | 18:59 |
| fdoving | vfat is good enough if you rarely have files larger than 4G, and want good support for multiple platforms (macosx, linux, windows). or ntfs if you can make that work properly on linux. | 18:59 |
| fdoving | genii: it's a fresh external. not formated. | 19:00 |
| fdoving | +t | 19:00 |
| jermain | ill go for vfat, since that seems the easy way out for my noob ass | 19:00 |

| ubotu | _ZeuZ_: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids. | 19:02 |
| Odd-rationale | !password | Frank__ | 19:02 |
| ubotu | Frank__: Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 19:02 |
| Pici | _ZeuZ_: chmod +x filename.bin then ./filename.bin | 19:03 |
| jermain | is an msdos disklabel okay? | 19:04 |
| jermain | if i dont get an answer i will resort to terrorism and send you letters powdered with my ignorance :) | 19:06 |
| Odd-rationale | jermain: yes it is ok | 19:06 |
| jermain | ty ^^ | 19:06 |
| tdn | How can I configure Ubuntu to automatically install updates? | 19:07 |
| ScorpKing | add a cron job | 19:07 |
| jermain | 'cron job' sounded so obscure before i knew what it was >.> | 19:08 |
| jermain | hmm linux reads fat32 right? | 19:09 |
| fdoving | yep. | 19:09 |
| Odd-rationale | jermain: yes | 19:09 |
| jermain | sweet ty :) | 19:10 |
| Odd-rationale | but ext > vfat | 19:10 |
| jermain | is ext readable for vista though? | 19:10 |
| Odd-rationale | jermain: only with third party drivers. | 19:11 |
| Odd-rationale | ext3 | jermain | 19:11 |
| Odd-rationale | !ext3 | 19:11 |
| ubotu | ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 19:11 |
| jermain | woot sweet | 19:12 |
| Odd-rationale | vfat has a file limit of about 4gb and it fragments awfully. | 19:12 |
| jermain | :( i know.. | 19:12 |
| TeslaTony | Is there any advantage to going with ReiserFS or some other filesystem over ext3? | 19:12 |
| fdoving | tdn: you can select that in kmenu -> system -> adept manager. then in the menu: adept -> manage repositories - a new box will appear. now go to the Updates tab, and under Automatic updates, select Install Automatically. | 19:13 |
| Odd-rationale | TeslaTony: I've heard the reiserfs is faster with larger files. | 19:13 |
| TeslaTony | I've also heard it's really good with larg numbers of small files | 19:13 |
| TeslaTony | But is it really that much faster? | 19:14 |
| Hydrogen | ricerfs is not worth it | 19:14 |
| Hydrogen | that iz all | 19:14 |
| fdoving | TeslaTony: it might be faster in some situations. i'd use XFS before reiserfs though. | 19:14 |

| xenol | hello, i'd like to ask if there is any how to/wiki on how to install from alternate cd | 19:25 |
| ScorpKing | ubuntu: what does it say? any errors? | 19:25 |
| ubuntu | after I upgraded it quit on me | 19:25 |
| _ZeuZ_ | I want to search the entire disk for the pattern -"XXXXX1X" how do I do this? I know I have to use find / but what more? -name would be the name | 19:25 |
| ubuntu | none | 19:25 |
| ubuntu | just takes me to the login | 19:25 |
| ultrazauberer | hmm | 19:26 |
| ScorpKing | _ZeuZ_: find -name 'xxxx1x' | 19:26 |
| Pici | _ZeuZ_: find / -name "XXXXX1X" | 19:26 |
| Pici | for case insensitivity, use -iname | 19:26 |
| _ZeuZ_ | I don't need the NAME, i need a content on the file | 19:26 |
| jermain | guys i wanna mount a hd but it says i have to specify the file system type | 19:27 |
| ScorpKing | _ZeuZ_: use grep then | 19:27 |
| jermain | how do i do that? | 19:27 |
| _ZeuZ_ | cat recursively all files to grep that? neh, it has to be another way | 19:27 |
| genii | ubuntu: Which partition is the / on? (usually sda1 or sda2) | 19:27 |
| fdoving | _ZeuZ_: grep -niR 'thing' (the i is for case-insensitive) | 19:27 |
| ubuntu | crap I dont know. I have windows on this machine too (installed first) | 19:28 |
| _ZeuZ_ | fdving, I know, but I'll have to do a cat on each file on the hard drive to find in wich is it | 19:28 |
| ScorpKing | ubuntu: press <f6> at boot and remove - quiet splash - from the kernel line. it should give you an error message or something usefull | 19:28 |
| fdoving | _ZeuZ_: for example: grep -niR ubuntu docs/ | 19:28 |
| genii | ubuntu: Please use pastebin website to post result of command: sudo fdisk -l | 19:28 |
| ubuntu | ok..... after grub or before? | 19:29 |
| fdoving | _ZeuZ_: no, the output from that command would be something like 'meeting.txt:21:Installing Ubuntu is easy' | 19:29 |
| _ZeuZ_ | fdoving: that will only display the files that have it, right? will not touch it right? | 19:29 |
| fdoving | _ZeuZ_: correct. | 19:29 |

| Ubuntic1 | Hello | 20:02 |
| ubuntu | very good, thats my linux partition | 20:02 |
| ScorpKing | i've noticed ;) | 20:02 |
| ubuntu | hehe | 20:02 |
| ubuntu | want me to go into the boot folder? | 20:03 |
| Ubuntic1 | I want to install ubuntu on my harddisk. I don't know what version is better to install. | 20:03 |
| Ubuntic1 | And what choice between ubuntu and Kubuntu. Now running live-cd | 20:03 |
| ScorpKing | ubuntu: now you have to figure out why it's not booting ;) | 20:03 |
| Ubuntic1 | The general problem is that I use ATI Radeon X1650 video. | 20:04 |
| ubuntu | buntic1: kubuntu 32 bit 7.10 (my opinion) | 20:04 |
| delphine | 7.10 from fresh install has some disturbing bugs, i would suggest 7.04 or waiting fr 8.04 | 20:04 |
| ubuntu | thats why I'm here | 20:04 |
| ScorpKing | ubuntu: look in /mnt/var/log/Xorg.0.loXorg.0.log and see if there's any reason why X isin't starting | 20:04 |
| Ubuntic1 | What distribution is best compattible with my Radeon X1650 ? | 20:04 |
| ubuntu | :o) | 20:04 |
| Ubuntic1 | Is the new Ubuntu ot Kubuntu Hardy compattible with Radeon X1650 ? | 20:05 |
| ubuntu | no such file | 20:05 |
| Ubuntic1 | Pleas help if you can | 20:05 |

| * genii sips a coffe and watches the goings-on | 20:07 | |
| BlackAura | So are the official kubuntu mirrors still down? I'm still having problems downloading updates....all the .deb files are still 0 bytes. | 20:07 |
| delphine | Ubuntic1 : it works with both | 20:07 |
| ScorpKing | ubuntu: genii looks bored. ;) i'm going away for a while. follow him. bbl | 20:08 |
| Ubuntic1 | Please tell me is Kubuntu or ubuntu Hardy compattible with ATI Radeon 1650 videocards? (And the new Xorg server) | 20:08 |
| genii | ubuntu: I would recommend to chroot to the mounted / and ensure kdm is installed and then to make it the login manager. | 20:08 |
| ScorpKing | !hardware | Ubuntic1 | 20:08 |
| ubotu | Ubuntic1: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 20:08 |
| Ubuntic1 | Ok ScorpidKing. i will go there | 20:09 |
| Ubuntic1 | Thanks | 20:09 |
| genii | ubuntu: eg: sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev;sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys;sudo mount -t proc /proc /mnt/proc;sudo chroot /mnt will prepare the chroot and then go there. After this can execute commands which will run like they are in the old / | 20:09 |
| ubuntu | genii: I ahve do do all this from the live cd | 20:10 |
| ubuntu | could you walk this newbie through? :o) | 20:10 |
| genii | ubuntu: Yes, that is why all the sudo mount -o bind things there. This makes /mnt able to be mounted like root for a while | 20:11 |
| === delphine is now known as steph_30 | ||
| ubuntu | ahh ok | 20:11 |
| genii | ubuntu: to reiterate: sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev;sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys;sudo mount -t proc /proc /mnt/proc;sudo chroot /mnt | 20:11 |
| genii | ubuntu: Anything after this you put will run like it is running in your hard drive / and not the livecd / | 20:12 |

| hazard | My install can't find aireplay-ng via apt, but it found aircrack-ng just fine. Any suggestions why that might be? | 20:14 |
| genii | ubuntu: So then make sure the upgrade/update process is finished: apt-get update;apt-get upgrade | 20:16 |
| ubuntu | done and ready i guess, lol | 20:18 |
| genii | ubuntu: You may get some message if the update/upgrade was interrupted previously like: run dpkg --configure -a | 20:18 |
| genii | ubuntu: OK. So then make sure kdm is installed.eg: apt-get install --reinstall kdm | 20:18 |
| ubuntu | its installed, cause I have been using it up until I updated | 20:19 |
| ubuntu | unless you want me to reinstall anyway | 20:19 |
| genii | ubuntu: It may have ben left in some half-installed state by the update. The command given will fix that | 20:20 |
| ubuntu | cool | 20:20 |
| ubuntu | ok | 20:20 |
| BlackAura | Am I just missing a setting somewhere or something? I'm so confused as to why the Kubuntu repositories are returning 0 bytes for any file I download. (Ubuntu is fine though) | 20:21 |
| genii | ubuntu: The output of command: apt-cache policy kubuntu-desktop you should put in pastebin website, so I can make sure it is also installed. | 20:21 |
| ubuntu | says installatiuon not poss. and it cannot be downloaded | 20:22 |
| genii | ubuntu: apt-cache is the command and not apt-get | 20:23 |
| genii | ubuntu: Are you able to ping somewhere on the internet from inside the chroot? | 20:24 |
| ubuntu | lol, dude I have no idea | 20:25 |
| genii | ubuntu: When you say installation not possible etc, you mean kdm?? | 20:25 |
| ubuntu | I'm on dsl.......... thats all I can tell you | 20:25 |
| ubuntu | yes | 20:25 |
| genii | OK | 20:25 |
| genii | ubuntu: We need to exit chroot and then make a few more commands to allow the chroot to access internet, and then go back in again. So to type for now: exit | 20:26 |

| steph_30 | Mrjoey>i haven't the computer with me right now so i can't confrm my kernel version, but i launch winecfg 4 hours ago | 21:23 |
| MrJoey | Okay, thanks | 21:24 |
| MrJoey | I'll try my .wine directory from Gutsy, then | 21:24 |
| === jose is now known as d3ce1t | ||
| dave11 | so in order to multi boot I should learn grub? | 21:25 |
| steph_30 | dave :well not really, when installing kubuntu it will detect your existing partition and place it in grub | 21:26 |
| genii | dave11: At least about the syntax of the menu.lst file | 21:26 |
| dave11 | steph_30:ok thanks | 21:26 |
| dave11 | genii: thanks | 21:27 |
| MrJoey | If you need help creating a boot entry for your other OS, just ask here | 21:27 |
| _ZeuZ_ | or just run grub-update (or update-grub) after installing it | 21:27 |
| dave11 | i have kubuntu and want install other distros, how would i go about that? | 21:27 |
| MrJoey | Use the manual partitioning settings when installing the other distros | 21:28 |
| _ZeuZ_ | dave11: just create the partitions, and install them... | 21:28 |
| _ZeuZ_ | then you'll have to add the entries to the bootloader you're using, and you'll be able to boot them, and mount other partitions | 21:28 |
| Odd-rationale | you can make all you distros share a /boot partition | 21:29 |
| MrJoey | You can preserve your original bootloader MBR by doing this: dd if=/dev/sda of=bootsector.img bs=32256 count=1 | 21:29 |
| dave11 | sounds confusing | 21:29 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Odd-rationale: Yes, but for a new to linux user, it's not the best I would say.. | 21:29 |
| MrJoey | Then, to copy it back: dd if=bootsector.img of=/dev/blah bs=446 count=1 (blah used instead of sda because this is a dangerous command) | 21:29 |
| Odd-rationale | _ZeuZ_: ok | 21:30 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Conserve each distor in separated mount points and partitions is the best to startoff | 21:30 |
| dave11 | its not as easy as i thought:-/ | 21:30 |
| dave11 | _ZeuZ_: thanks anyway, you scared me off | 21:31 |
| dave11 | lol | 21:32 |
| _ZeuZ_ | lol xD | 21:32 |
| _ZeuZ_ | dave11 | 21:32 |
| MrJoey | Some distros may even detect your other Linux partitions, so their bootloaders might suffice | 21:32 |
| _ZeuZ_ | just create a partition, install the distro to it, and run update-grub from Debian/*Ubuntu and it's done | 21:32 |
| MrJoey | Or that :) | 21:32 |
| dave11 | MrJoey: thats the answer i wanted..lol | 21:32 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Debian based ones will | 21:33 |
| ibou | Do someone know a soft to use a cue sheet to split audio files ? | 21:33 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Slackware based ones, might, mightnot | 21:33 |
| MrJoey | So does update-grub (try to) find all Linux partitions? | 21:33 |
| MrJoey | What about Fedora? | 21:34 |
| _ZeuZ_ | yes, it does. | 21:34 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Fedora? I dunno, being based on NASH core from Red Hat, it should, but update-grub is not called the same way on it | 21:34 |
| eragon | Hi! | 21:34 |
| _ZeuZ_ | Also, make sure to not install them on XFS partitions, or you'll have to deal with that too | 21:34 |
| awry | hey everyone | 21:35 |
| eragon | I got a small question about 8.04 | 21:35 |
| awry | can someone explain to me the two different branches of kde4 packages? | 21:35 |
| awry | in gutsy? | 21:35 |
| awry | there are kde4* packages and *-kde4 packages | 21:35 |
| awry | which seem to overlap and are not compatible | 21:35 |
| steph_30 | ibou did you try mp3splt ? | 21:35 |
| eragon | Will kubuntu 8.04 kde 4 remix receiver the official updates via update-manager? | 21:36 |
| awry | my specific problem | 21:36 |
| eragon | because the website says there won't be commercial support for it | 21:36 |
| awry | is that i'd like to use the kde4 version of kdesu so that i can run, e.g. systemsettings for kde4, but kdesu is in the kde4base pkg, which is incompatible with all the *-kde4 packages | 21:36 |
| awry | anyone? | 21:39 |
| dave11 | ahh i found it..http://www.linux.com/articles/41263 | 21:40 |

| _myrtille_ | you've installed the newer kaffeine version 0.8.6, while the official version from main packages still seems to be 0.8.5 | 23:22 |
