[00:02] <kgx> hi. im trying to update the contents of a file using sed. this doesnt seem to work: sed 's/oldstuff/newstuff/' inputFileName > inputFileName
[00:02] <kgx> any ideas whats wrong?
[00:05] <ScorpKing> kgx: ask in #linux :)
[00:06] <dwidmann> kgx: add a g after the last /
[00:07] <dwidmann> kgx: also, why not use something like this: sed -i inputfilename -e "s/oldstuff/newstuff/g" ...... should work
[00:07] <dwidmann> kgx: (-i edits in place)
[00:08] <Foodcoman> Hello all.
[00:08] <ScorpKing> hiya Foodcoman
[00:08] <kgx> dwidmann: managed to get it work
[00:08] <kgx> dwidmann: thanks
[00:08] <dwidmann> kgx: no problem
[00:08] <Foodcoman> Apt question?  The following packages have been kept back: Upgraded to hardy.
[00:11] <ScorpKing> !upgrade
[00:11] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[00:11] <Foodcoman> checking.  Thanks.
[00:12] <Foodcoman> Thanks, doesnt cover Hardy. =(
[00:13] <ScorpKing> the instrucktions should be more or less the same for both i think
[00:17] <Foodcoman> Just some dependency problems on the upgrade is all.  I think I will remove them till things settle in a bit thanks.
[00:19] <Foodcoman> Here is a good link:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62471/
[00:20] <Foodcoman> Sorry Correction: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62471/
[00:21] <nick_> how to install another language in kubuntu
[00:21] <Foodcoman> Oh man embarassing.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62472
[00:21] <hltpyldr> Hello! I tried asking this question over in #konqueror, but can't seem to get a reply.  Does anyone know how to configure Konqueror such that the default view mode is the Detailed List View when using Konqueror as a file manager?
[00:22] <hltpyldr> Can't seem to find an option to set this as default in the Konqueror settings.
[00:23] <babban> someone now any good software in this??
[00:25] <ScorpKing> Foodcoman: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades/Kubuntu
[00:25] <ScorpKing> babban: lots of good software. it depends what you want ;)
[00:26] <_myrtille_> hltpyldr: Have you tried the following:
[00:26] <_myrtille_> After you've select Detailed List View (View -> View Mode -> Detailed List View), then select the Settings -> Save View Profile "File Management" menu selection.
[00:26] <_myrtille_> taken from:  http://mandrivausers.org/index.php?showtopic=34806
[00:26] <Foodcoman> ScorpKing: Thanks
[00:26] <ScorpKing> hltpyldr: not sure. maybe try #kde
[00:27] <ScorpKing> Foodcoman: np
[00:28] <hltpyldr> _myrtille_: Yes, actually I have tried that.  I am saving the profile as "File Management".  Does not seem to work for me.
[00:28] <babban> i wanna good tool..:D
[00:28] <babban> like i u can look ip and so..:D then i want gadgets and anything..:D
[00:29] <ScorpKing> babban: go look at www.kde-apps.org
[00:29] <babban> thanks..:D
[00:29] <ScorpKing> babban: www.kde-look.org might also be of interest
[00:33] <hltpyldr> _myrtille_: any more ideas?
[00:34] <spine55> ls
[00:35] <_myrtille_> hltpyldr: i'm looking through some stuff right now, but haven't found anything convincing
[00:35] <_myrtille_> if you find a solution, i'd be interested as well ;)
[00:36] <Jucato> hltpyldr: try Settings -> Configure Konqueror -> File Associations -> inode -> directory -> Embedding tab -> put Detailed List View at the top of the list
[00:36] <hltpyldr> Foodcoman just sent me this link; I'm checking it out now: http://strabes.wordpress.com/2007/04/05/make-konqueror-use-your-default-view-mode-in-new-tabs/
[00:38] <Jucato> hltpyldr: amusing how it looks like my directions above :)
[00:38] <Foodcoman> Seems like a good solution.... working?
[00:38] <Jucato> although I'm puzzled why saving the View Profile doesn't work in the first place
[00:38] <hltpyldr> Jucato: I'm sorry, I must have missed your directions. ??
[00:39] <hltpyldr> Foodcoman: Thanks!  Works great!
[00:39] <_myrtille_> Jucato: I think this happens, because the webinterface is loaded as a default
[00:39] <Jucato> depends on how he launches Konqueror or from where
[00:39] <hltpyldr> Jucato: I see your instructions now.  Thank you!  I must have been reading Foodcoman's link at the time.
[00:40] <hltpyldr> I'm launching it from an xml menu in Openbox.
[00:40] <Jucato> hltpyldr: are you sure that in your XML menu, it's launching the korrect konqueror profile?
[00:40] <Jucato> you saved the Detailed List view in the File Management profile, so your launcher should launch that profile
[00:41] <hltpyldr> Jucato: let me look... be right back
[00:42] <hltpyldr> Jucato: I am assuming that when I launch Konqueror, the File Manager profile probably does not kick in until I click the Home Folder link on Konqueror's default homepage.  Is that correct?  Here is my action: <action name="Execute"><execute>konqueror</execute></action>
[00:43] <Jucato> hltpyldr: nope. it does't change view profiles while running. you have to launch it with a specific view profile, otherwise the profile's settings won't be used
[00:44] <hltpyldr> Jucato: So, I can't just launch "konqueror" is what you are saying.  How do I launch it with a specific profile?
[00:45] <Jucato> hltpyldr: but with the directions you got from the site, that will ensure that whatever profile you use, the detailed list view will be used when viewing files and folders
[00:45] <Jucato> "kfmclient openProfile filemanagement"
[00:46] <hltpyldr> Jucato: ahh, ok.  Thanks for the tip!  Much appreciated.
[00:47] <hltpyldr> Jucato: Hey, that works great!  Thanks!
[00:48] <Jucato> :D
[00:50] <hltpyldr> Foodcoman: I'm using irssi as my irc client, and I am far from being an expert at using irssi.  Somehow you opened a new channel or a new tab and executed a query.  How did you do that?
[00:50] <Jucato> hltpyldr: /query <nickname> <message>
[00:50] <hltpyldr> Jucato: ah ha!  ok, thanks!
[00:52] <hltpyldr> Jucato: so does the <message> portion of that query for whatever I am searching for, such as <how to configure Konqueror> (or something like that), or would I be typing something specific like a URL?
[00:53] <Jucato> hltpyldr: I meant something like /query hltpyldr hello! how are you?
[00:54] <Jucato> hltpyldr: /query here means "private message" (alternatively you can also use /msg)
[00:54] <Foodcoman> hltpyldr: /msg hltpyldr
[00:54] <hltpyldr> Jucato: Ok.  I wasn't sure.  I just happened to Alt+3 to see if I had any other channels open and then saw the message.
[00:54] <hltpyldr> Jucato: Foodcoman: Ok, makes sense now.  Thanks!
[00:54] <Maki> Wow... loads of away messages. o.o;
[00:54] <Jucato> Foodcoman: I'm not sure how /msg behaves on irssi. in Konversation, if I use /msg, a new tab won't open until the person I sent the message to replies
[00:55] <Jucato> /query opens a new tab, regardless
[00:55] <Jucato> Maki: away messages?
[00:55] <Maki> Yeah.. I joined and I get a load of away messages from people. o.O
[00:56] <Jucato> weird...
[00:56] <Maki> I'm using Konqueror.. would rather use Pidgin, but 7.04 has Konqueror and not Pidgin. >_>;
[00:56] <Maki> Anyways.. ehm.
[00:56] <MrJoey> You mean Kopete?
[00:56] <Maki> Er...
[00:56] <Maki> Yeah
[00:56] <MrJoey> You can sudo apt-get install pidgin
[00:56] <Maki> Keep mixing those up.
[00:56] <MrJoey> Unless it's not available
[00:56] <MrJoey> it might be called "gaim"
[00:57] <MrJoey> (that was the old name before a quiet dispute between them and AOL resulted in the name change to pidgin)
 I'm using Kopete.... would rather use Pidgin, but 7.04 has GAIM and not Pidgin. >_>;
[00:57] <Jucato> (rewritten to make sense :P)
[00:58] <Maki> Can I ask if anyone knows what I have to do to get my PCChips M985G Motherboard with Intel Grantsdale-G VGA onboard to work with 3D applications correctly? Right now it even makes Kaffeine's videostuff look blurred. o.o
[00:58] <Foodcoman> dcc chat is an option also.  Let me find the command.  other end has to accept
[00:58] <nick_> ho wdo i uninstall kde4 ?
[00:59] <Maki> Glxgears runs 4191 frames in 5.1 seconds = 818.399 FPS, however. >_>;
[00:59] <babban> scorpking: now i have download that i want but could not install them??
[00:59] <ScorpKing> babban: follow the instructions in the README file
[01:00] <Jucato> Maki: what does "glxinfo | grep render" say?

[01:00] <Maki> er...... I don't understand that.
[01:01] <Jucato> Maki: meaning: "Don't paste long lines of text in here"
[01:01] <Maki> Erf.. they asked me what it said, didn't they?
[01:01] <Maki> You ask, I copy+pate.
[01:01] <babban> what program i should open it on??
[01:01] <Maki> *paste
[01:01] <Jucato> Maki: yes, I did. but I didn't mean that you paste in here :)
[01:01] <Maki> Where to then?
[01:02] <Jucato> specially not all of them
[01:02] <Jucato> that's what a pastebin is for. you paste in the pastebin and then send the link to where it's pasted
[01:02] <Maki> eeeh.... what?
[01:02] <Maki> I don't know what a pastebin is.
[01:02] <Maki> Or where to get it
[01:02] <Maki> Or how to use it. >_>
[01:02] <LetsGo67> How do I *REMOVE* PPPoE?
[01:02] <Jucato> don't you see the link above?
[01:02] <babban> scorpion: what program i will run readme file??
[01:02] <Maki> What link?

[01:03] <Maki> oh
[01:03] <Maki> Merf.
[01:03] <Maki> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62475/
[01:04] <Jucato> see? that simple :)
[01:04] <Maki> I don't like IRC at all
[01:04] <Maki> But I dislike forums even more
[01:04] <Jucato> mailing lists?
[01:04] <Jucato> :)
[01:05] <Jucato> hm.. weird that it's not trying to use 3d rendering at all,not even software rendering...
[01:05] <Maki> I dunno
[01:05] <Maki> I only got 7.04 installed cause the 7.10 DVD craps out before getting to X
[01:06] <LetsGo67> How do I remove PPPoEconf system changes?
[01:06] <Jucato> LetsGo67: just a guess, try running pppoeconf again?
[01:07] <ScorpKing> nite guys
[01:07] <LetsGo67> Peut-être. Jucado.
[01:07] <Jucato> Maki: hm.. sorry I'm not familiar with Intel IGPs... might want to stick around to wait for help, or search in ubuntuforums.org or kubuntuforums.net
[01:08] <Maki> I never can find my way around forums. >_<
[01:08] <LetsGo67> Jucato, non.
[01:08] <Maki> Merf. I told my boss that he should've let me choose what PC to buy, but he wouldn't listen. >_<
[01:09] <Jucato> Maki: there's a search box there
[01:09] <Maki> oh
[01:10] <babban> in what program one could read the readme file??
[01:10] <Maki> Kate
[01:10] <robilive> Hi
[01:10] <robilive> Some day ago I've colorized the "ok" and "fail" message of the bootup. I would like to colorize the boot scripts' messages  but I have no idea on what to do... Does anyone know how to do this?
[01:11] <babban> hi robilivr
[01:11] <Maki> Jucato: No search results for Grantsdale or M985G
[01:12] <Jucato> Maki: widen your search then? intel video card, or intel video driver, or intel 3d
[01:12] <robilive> hi babban :D
[01:13] <Maki> fuck this
[01:21] <hazard_> Anyone have any experience with xev? My output doesn't look like I expected.

[01:50] <epimeth> ~/.strigi is taking up gigs and gigs of space... what can I do about this?
[01:54] <Jucato> if you're not using strigi, kill it, delete the ~/.strigi folder
[01:54] <Jucato> (strigidaemon I think)
[01:56] <epimeth> Jucato: and if I want to keep it?
[01:56] <Jucato> um... that's the problem :/
[01:57] <epimeth> lol
[01:57] <epimeth> all right
[02:00] <epimeth> how do I disable the daemon?  I assume it starts on user login, not in the RC folders?
[02:01] <epimeth> cuz its not in .kde/Autostart
[02:02] <epimeth> and something else that I just noticed... how do I set "view hidden folders" to be on by default in dolphin?
[02:04] <mot_> is there an ichat-compatible client in kubuntu?
[02:04] <mot_> my friend has ichat and i'm trying to view her webcam
[02:04] <mot_> but i'm not sure what client to use.
[02:05] <epimeth> yea
[02:05] <epimeth> mot_: kopete
[02:05] <epimeth> its installed by default
[02:05] <mot_> kopete is ichat-compatible?
[02:05] <calcmandan> hey guys. well my pc died. power supply overloaded mboard and cpu. it was a sad but beautiful funeral. anyway, i ran off and bought a new board, dual core cpu, 2gb of ram. just installed it and loaded my machine up. 6.06.2 fully updated. funny thing was it loaded up without screaming about the new hardware. so now that iu'm up and running, it's really sluggish.  i have to think that the sluggishness has to do with the new hardwa
[02:05] <calcmandan> .  i'm burning a dl dvd and it's burning really slowly. any thought on what i can do to speed things up?
[02:06] <epimeth> ichat is apple's kopete
[02:06] <mot_> do i need a .mac account or what service should i add under kopete?
[02:06] <mot_> yes, i reliaze this. i'm saying what should *i* use under my kubuntu box to be able to view her webcam?
[02:07] <epimeth> oh... so you meant your apple account for ichat
[02:07] <epimeth> right
[02:07] <epimeth> I don't actually know
[02:07] <epimeth> check google?
[02:11] <darkwolf> hello sirs!
[02:12] <darkwolf> okay for some reason I can't change my monitors resolution
[02:12] <darkwolf> I am editing it in monitor and settings but the resoultion doesn't change!
[02:12] <darkwolf> I can't get my screen to fit my monitor!
[02:13] <darkwolf> I am running Kubuntu 7.10
[02:13] <darkwolf> gutsy
[02:13] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: try reconfiguring you xserver: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:14] <yuriy> darkwolf: try selecting a monitor type (generic, your resolution should work)
[02:16] <darkwolf> how do I restart the xserver?
[02:16] <darkwolf> just reboot?
[02:17] <yuriy> darkwolf: log out, hit ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:17] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: ctrl+alt+bksp
[02:19] <epimeth> how do I disable strigi?
[02:27] <darkwolf> I am having trouble configuring my monitor in Xorg
[02:28] <darkwolf> I have logged in and out like 5 times but can't get the screen to fit my monitor
[02:28] <darkwolf> what is the safest bet?
[02:28] <darkwolf> it syncs horizontally but not vertically
[02:28] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file for us. and we'll see what we can do...
[02:29] <calcmandan> anyone see my question earlier?
[02:30] <Odd-rationale> calcmandan: I didn't...
[02:30] <calcmandan> ok, i'll paste it.
[02:30] <calcmandan> hey guys. well my pc died. power supply overloaded mboard and cpu. it was a sad but beautiful funeral. anyway, i ran off and bought a new board, dual core cpu, 2gb of ram. just installed it and loaded my machine up. 6.06.2 fully updated. funny thing was it loaded up without screaming about the new hardware. so now that iu'm up and running, it's really sluggish.  i have to think that the sluggishness has to do with the new hardwa
[02:30] <calcmandan> .  i'm burning a dl dvd and it's burning really slowly. any thought on what i can do to speed things up?
[02:31] <darkwolf> okay I pasted it
[02:31] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: give us the link
[02:31] <nosrednaekim> calcmandan: #1, you really should install a later release #2, did you use the previous install?
[02:32] <Odd-rationale> calcmandan: what dvd are you burning? ubuntu install dvd?
[02:32] <darkwolf> how do I get the url for what I pasted?
[02:32] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: in the address bar.
[02:32] <calcmandan> nosrednaekin: yeah, i'm using a previous install. i was hoping it would at least burn my data dvd's quicker though.
[02:32] <darkwolf> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62480/
[02:33] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: reading....
[02:33] <calcmandan> i'm 30 minutes into a dvd burn and only 23% done.
[02:33] <darkwolf> thank you!
[02:34] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: what resolution do you want?
[02:34] <darkwolf> uh... I don't know
[02:35] <nosrednaekim> calcmandan: well, wait for it to finish :)
[02:35] <nosrednaekim> calcmandan: then we can work with it :)
[02:35] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: also, is see you are using nvidia. did you install the nvidia restricted drivers?
[02:35] <calcmandan> noseredkin: okay, will do.
[02:36] <darkwolf> odd: yes
[02:38] <calcmandan> i'm downloading gutsy gibbon.  it will be freshly installed once i'm done backing stuff up.
[02:38] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: ok. in your Screen section, remove the "1440x900" entry. and restart X and see if that works...
[02:39] <darkwolf> okay, will do...
[02:39] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: remember that ctrl+alt+bksp will log you out and stop all application. so you might want to close your irc client first...
[02:43] <darkwolf> thanks, I got the resolution working right! :)
[02:43] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: good!
[02:43] <darkwolf> but now I am trying to install Opera, but after I install it there is no menu entry, how do I run it?
[02:44] <Odd-rationale> darkwolf: try "opera" in terminal
[02:45] <nitin> darkwolf, try : sudo apt-get install opera, after doing sudo apt-get update
[02:46] <nitin> darkwolf, i also prefer to use opera
[02:49] <mEck0> Oh no :( I pressed Del-button on wrong folder in Dolphin, and it is now deleted (why not moved to trash :S), how can I recover it
[02:51] <nitin> mEck, try Ctrl+Z

[03:32] <Alchera> isn't opera supposed to pick up the plugin that firefox uses? >> .mozilla/plugins
[03:34] <darkwolf> I don't know I am ready to pull my hair out

[03:41] <Dan__> there must be like a device manager but I cant seem to find it
[03:41] <Dan__> Anyone help?
[03:44] <BluesKaj> Dan__, look for linux drivers for your tuner card in whatever the system settings equivalent is on MCE

[03:51] <edoceo> A fresh install of Kubuntu Hardy has a number of items in the list, where did mine go?
[03:52] <shadowbox> I get an error telling me that I have a package manager up and running already, so I cant install a package I have on my desktop until I close out the other instance
[03:52] <edoceo> adept?
[03:53] <shadowbox> I dont see another program running, I just rebooted and apparently its still running
[03:53] <edoceo> ^^ shadowbox
[03:53] <shadowbox> yes adept
[03:53] <Jucato> !aptfix | shadowbox
[03:53] <ubotu> shadowbox: If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[03:53] <Jucato> edoceo: might want to try asking in #ubuntu+1
[03:55] <shadowbox> the last command is giving me options
[03:55] <shadowbox> File on system created by you or by a script.
[03:55] <shadowbox> File also in package provided by package maintainer
[03:56] <shadowbox> What would you like to do about it ?
[03:56] <shadowbox> (1)   install the package maintainer's version
[03:56] <shadowbox> (2)    keep your currently-installed version
[03:57] <shadowbox> (3)  show the differences between the versions
[03:57] <shadowbox> (4)  background this process to examine the situation
[03:57] <shadowbox> which one?
[03:58] <BluesKaj> install the package maintainer's version
[03:58] <Alchera>  i have a slight annoyance in konqueror & dolphin. non display of one of my 5 partitions in system:/media
[03:59] <shadowbox> Jucato:  which option that I mentioned should I choose?
[04:00] <Jucato> shadowbox: see what BluesKaj said
[04:00] <shadowbox> ahh, didnt see that sorry
[04:00] <shadowbox> thanks BluesKaj:
[04:01] <BluesKaj> Alchera, see if  it's listed , df -h
[04:02] <Alchera> it is BluesKaj
[04:03] <oren_> gan someone help me with wget?
[04:03] <oren_> please
[04:06] <oren_> can someone help me with gwget?
[04:06] <Alchera> wget?
[04:07] <oren_> its a Dl manager
[04:07] <oren_> or if you know how i can DL faster off websites?
[04:07] <oren_> in windows i used a prog that got multipl connections
[04:07] <BluesKaj> Alchera, dunno about dolphin , but is the partition listed in system settings / advanced / disk & filesystems ?
[04:07] <Alchera> BluesKaj: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62486/ .... the partition in question is /dev/hdb1
[04:08] <oren_> im new to linux (hating it)
[04:09] <BluesKaj> oren_, telling us that doesn't help you ..what's the problem ?
[04:10] <yao_ziyuan> how do i disable remote login in kubuntu?
[04:11] <Alchera> oren_: wget ftp://ftp.eggheads.org/pub/eggdrop/source/1.6/eggdrop1.6.18.tar.gz
[04:11] <Alchera> as an example
[04:12] <heinkel_111> hello, what is the secret spell to cast after crashing adept updater halfway through an update of something?
[04:12] <heinkel_111> fix something?
[04:13] <oren_> Alchera: ok so the url i want to Dl is: http://downloads.members.easynews.com/news/1/c/e/1ce295813bd74a9fb5fffa800ebcc348012e24ba4.avi/john_adams_part5_hdtv-lol.avi
[04:13] <oren_> how would i enter that in wget?
[04:13] <maduser> sudo dpkg -configure -a
[04:13] <maduser> apt fix
[04:13] <Alchera> yes ojpitre__ and you'd enter that as you did here
[04:13] <Alchera> err.. oren_
[04:14] <heinkel_111> maduser: the first one ok
[04:14] <heinkel_111> maduser: apt fix I cant find
[04:14] <BluesKaj> !aptfix
[04:14] <ubotu> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[04:15] <heinkel_111> I don't think the database is locked; but some updates did not go through
[04:15] <heinkel_111> they seem to be registered on the server but I don't think software is upgraded
[04:15] <Alchera> sorry for the delay BluesKaj ... it doesn't appear in advanced / disk & filesystems
[04:15] <maduser> its the fix for that too
[04:15] <heinkel_111> i mean registered on the database, sorry
[04:16] <Jucato> heinkel_111: you can try sudo apt-get update again then dist-upgrade
[04:17] <heinkel_111> Jucato: isn't dist-upgrade for upgrading to a new distro release?
[04:17] <heinkel_111> (that never works in kubuntu anyway but...(
[04:17] <Jucato> er wait. sorry different issue :/
[04:23] <Alchera> grrrrrr
[04:24] <BluesKaj> sacktime for me .. good nite all
[04:28] <Alchera> BluesKaj: the partition is showing up in / advanced / disk & filesystems wrongly mounted
[04:28] <katarzyna> Hello :)
[04:29] <katarzyna> Salute for all peoples ;)
[04:29] <gkffjcs> I was playing a windows game in wine, and now the text on my system is really small, this includes window titles, and some other text, any Ideas?
[04:29] <Alchera> refresh the desktop?
[04:30] <katarzyna> hmmm yes refresh
[04:30] <katarzyna> but no all games function with linux
[04:31] <LimCore> most do NOT function
[04:31] <katarzyna> yes, exactly :)
[04:31] <gkffjcs> the game seemed to run fine, with all the wine horror stories, I was suprised how well it ran, it only is now that I have closed the game that all the text on my system is messed up
[04:32] <gkffjcs> I know that in order to run it changed the screen resolution several times
[04:33] <katarzyna> run game of linux is very difficult because have code for windows ;/ :(
[04:34] <katarzyna> Hello Shogun ;)
[04:34] <shogunmaster> hey!
[04:34] <gkffjcs> damm, how do I force the cd drive to eject?
[04:34] <gkffjcs> I keep getting device busy, I think it's a wine glitch
[04:35] <shogunmaster> I just popped in to check things out.
[04:35] <katarzyna> Installed games is most good at cd's :)
[04:35] <katarzyna> how are all peoples ???
[04:36] <shogunmaster> I'm good.
[04:36] <katarzyna> this fine, where are you from ??
[04:36] <shogunmaster> I just installed kubuntu for the first time yesterday.
[04:37] <katarzyna> i have kubuntu more time, 6 month :)
[04:37] <shogunmaster> I'm in Chicago, IL
[04:37] <katarzyna> wooow im from Poland :)
[04:37] <shogunmaster> cool
[04:37] <katarzyna> And as Kubuntu?? Goodies out Windows shit??
[04:38] <ubuntu> does anyone here run Kubuntu with the EeePC?
[04:38] <chris0626891> ...
[04:39] <shogunmaster> This is the first time that I've used irc. Much easier than I thought.
[04:39] <shogunmaster> I thought I needed to setup up an account on the server i wanted to use.
[04:40] <chris0626891> nope
[04:40] <katarzyna> Yes :) i emigration to kubuntu because i need free software :)
[04:41] <shogunmaster> I'm out. later.
[04:41] <jerknextdoor> #kubuntu-offtopic
[04:42] <katarzyna> ok  :)
[04:43] <Hydrogen> free as in freedom or free as in sexuality?
[04:44] <raevin> does anyone know how to get connected to your wireless network again once you can't ping or anything
[04:45] <raevin> without restarting
[04:46] <raevin> i'm using kde 3.5 right now...and i can stay connected to my router, but if i try to ping or anything say, google.com there's times where i won't be able to, and i always have to reboot my computer...sometimes also restart my router & modem
[04:52] <gkffjcs> is there a way to start a new login in a different tty from a terminal command?
[04:52] <raevin> you can try sudo --login
[04:52]  * karsten_ is away: Zur Zeit nicht da.
[04:57] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: from tty1 ( ctrl-alt-F1) :  startx -- :1
[04:57] <thoreauputic> should start X on tty 8 ( ctrl-alt-F8) then you can switch back and forth from 8 to 7 etc.
[04:59] <gkffjcs> I get error the server is allready running on display0
[05:00] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs:   startx -- :1   <-- note the spaces and hyphens
[05:00] <thoreauputic> that starts X on display :1
[05:00] <thoreauputic> not :0
[05:01] <gkffjcs> is there a space in between the -- and the : too? My fonts are really small, it's an un realted issue which I will deal with later.
[05:01] <thoreauputic> ypou may find that it actually starts on tty9 not 8 ( dpeneds if your dm is running, which it probably is)
[05:02] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs:  startx <space> -- <space> :1
[05:02] <dalton2345> hello whats the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu
[05:02] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: KDE desktop
[05:02] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: ubuntu uses gnome
[05:02] <dalton2345> thoreauputic: thats all it is?
[05:02] <thoreauputic> kubuntu uses KDE
[05:02] <gkffjcs> thanks, that worked!
[05:03] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: that's a BIG difference!
[05:03] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: but yesm underneath they are both ubuntu
[05:03] <dalton2345> thoreauputic: i'm asking coz in distrowatch ubuntu is first and kubuntu 14th
[05:03] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: :)
[05:04] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: artificial division - they use the same softwsre repositories
[05:04] <dalton2345> thoreauputic: ah ok
[05:04] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: there's xubuntu too - same thing with xfce4
[05:05] <dalton2345> thoreauputic: xubuntu is the light version
[05:05] <alatnet> anyone know how to configure kubuntu to "bridge" a wifi and ethernet connection and route net trafic from the ethernet throught the wifi?
[05:05] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: yes - it uses the xfce desktop which is lighter on resources - still very nice :)
[05:06] <dalton2345> thoreauputic: ty
[05:06] <thoreauputic> dalton2345: np
[05:06] <gkffjcs> actually, I guess I lied, it has started x, but nothing else, all I have is an x curser, no menu, no desktop, nothing
[05:07] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: ah - then you need to specify a window manager as well
[05:07] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: for example:  startx /usr/bin/fluxbox -- :1   ( or whatever)
[05:08] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: you need the full path - for KDE it would be I think
[05:08] <thoreauputic> startx /usr/bin/startkde -- :1
[05:08] <thoreauputic> but that's from memory - haven't done it for a while
[05:09] <thoreauputic> alternatively you can start the window manager from the xterm you see with the plain startx command
[05:10] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: you didn't even get an xterm then?
[05:10] <thoreauputic> in the top left corner?
[05:10] <gkffjcs> no, absolutely nothing,
[05:10] <thoreauputic> interesting
[05:11] <thoreauputic> used to give you an xterm .... must have changed
[05:11] <thoreauputic> do you have any non-kde window managers installed ?
[05:12] <gkffjcs> also when I return to that tty the xsessinon is gone, and it's just a slwly scrolling list of messages. Also Ive used tty1 - 4 allready, is there a way to reset a tty? I have gnome, xfce, and kde4 which is my manager of choice
[05:12] <kadko> !kde4
[05:12] <ubotu> KDE 4.0.3 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0.3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.3.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.3.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4
[05:13] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: it's really much easier to use the "new login" feature - but I don't know if KDE has that. (I'm not in KDE at the moment)
[05:13] <kadko> !kubuntu-es
[05:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kubuntu-es - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:13] <gkffjcs> the reason I am trying this is because I know in kde3 you just go to kmenu > logout > start new session, but appearantly kde4 hasn't implemented that feature yet
[05:14] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: try using that feature from gnome and logging in from the login screen it gives you
[05:14] <gkffjcs> k Ille try that
[05:14] <thoreauputic> gkffjcs: I don't know if kde4 shows up in gdm though. Are you using kdm?
[05:15] <gkffjcs> actually I'm using kdm4, the new version
[05:15] <kadko> Can any one help me to install kde4.0.3
[05:15] <thoreauputic> ah. I  have onl;y used kde4 once :) I 'm a fluxbox sort of person really :)
[05:15] <Jucato> there's #kubuntu-kde4 for KDE 4 questions btw
[05:16] <kadko> but there i dont get answers
[05:16] <kadko> can u give me the chanel of kubuntu es?
[05:16] <thoreauputic> kadko: looks like you found it...
[05:17] <kadko> ya :P
[05:27] <Nutubuntu> When I logon, sometimes I have the screen res I set (1280x1024) and sometimes I have the world's largest desktop, way bigger than my monitor. Mouse to the right edge of the monitor and scroll right, mouse to the top and scroll up, etc. I don't really like that - how do I get it to stick with the screen res I set?
[05:27] <kadko> i'm sorry can any one can say me how can i download the mp3 codec Sudo~~~?
[05:28] <Jucato> kadko, sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg
[05:28] <Jucato> (or sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras for Flash, Java, etc)
[05:29] <Alchera> okies .. in koqueror~locations menu i have two entries for dolphin ... any suggestion on removing it?
[05:29] <Alchera> er.. on removing the duplicate entry
[05:31] <darkwolf> I tried installing the 9.50 beta version of Opera on my own, decided it was too unstable, then uninstalled it with Adept.... now after reinstalling the stable version with gdebi, opera is listed in the menu but won't run when I click on it....
[05:33] <Roey> darkwolf:  see spice and wofl
[05:33] <Roey> *wolf
[05:34] <darkwolf> ?
[05:34] <darkwolf> spice and wolf?
[05:34] <darkwolf> Spice and Wolf (狼と香辛料, Ōkami to Kōshinryō?, lit. Wolf and Spice) is a Japanese light novel series written by Isuna Hasekura, with illustrations by Jū Ayakura......
[05:37] <darkwolf> I like manga and Japanese lit and everything, but right now I need Opera working! :)
[05:38] <ravingloonietic> hello all - can anyone help me concerning kubuntu hardy 8.04?
[05:39] <darkwolf> how do I completely remove a package so I can do a clean install? (in this case with Opera?)
[05:39] <ravingloonietic> apt-get remove -purge opera i think
[05:40] <ravingloonietic> check the syntax though
[05:40] <ravingloonietic> in google
[05:41] <gary_>  
[05:41] <ravingloonietic> obiwan kenobi you are my only hope
[05:44] <hikejinx> This might be better asked in a compiz channel, but how do I drag a window to another desktop with compiz in kubuntu. In ubuntu, it's default.
[05:44] <ravingloonietic> can anyone tell me if its possible to install nvidia drivers on 8.04?
[05:45] <thoreauputic> ravingloonietic: yes - I have nvidia drivers on 8.04

[05:51] <Patricio> alguien que hable espanol
[05:51] <Patricio> que tal
[05:51] <darkwolf> okay I reinstalled opera... when I select it from the menu, it starts to load then disappears from the taskbar
[05:51] <hikejinx> !spanish | Patricio
[05:51] <ubotu> Patricio: Aquí solamente hablamos inglés. Para Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es - allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[05:51] <Patricio> de donde eres
[05:52] <ravingloonietic> apesadumbrado no hablo español
[05:52] <ravingloonietic> estoy utilizando el babelfish
[05:52] <Patricio> bueno disculpa es que no que cual sala hablan espanol
[05:53] <ravingloonietic> can anyone please tell me if it is possible to install nvidia on hardy?
[05:53] <hikejinx> !hardy | ravingloonietic
[05:53] <ubotu> ravingloonietic: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[05:53] <darkwolf> us there any further information I could give that would help with my Opera problem?
[05:54] <hikejinx> darkwolf, maybe there is a channel for opera?
[05:58] <darkwolf> I guess this room is filled with firefox users
[05:58] <Hydrogen> opera++
[05:58] <Hydrogen> firefox die in a fire
[05:59] <luinfana> what? opera is awesome.
[06:00] <luinfana> but FF is fine
[06:01] <Hydrogen> no
[06:01] <Hydrogen> its trash
[06:02] <luinfana> why?
[06:02] <luinfana> what do you use? 2 or 3b?
[06:02] <luinfana> I haven't had any problems with it.
[06:04] <hikejinx> I think they're both good browsers, but opera is not useable with me for it's inability to deal with some sites like gmail or yahoo mail.
[06:05] <hikejinx> though gmail is for the most part ok.
[06:08] <Yz85Racer> guys, how do you set the resolution in Kubuntu
[06:09] <Yz85Racer> all of a sudden it's gone huge
[06:09] <Yz85Racer> the kstart button is nearly 5 by 5 cm
[06:10] <Alchera> ok .. how does one disable usb?
[06:10] <Alchera> i need to do this because kubuntu is mounting my ide hdd drive on /proc/bus/usb
[06:17] <darkwolf> well how do I get opera to start?
[06:18] <pyro17> first get the package darkwolf
[06:18] <darkwolf> okay, I did
[06:18] <darkwolf> the problem is, I installed the beta manually
[06:19] <darkwolf> then I uninstalled it with adept
[06:19] <darkwolf> then when I reinstalled the stable version of opera, it seemed to be okay, but when I tried to run it from the menu, nothing happens
[06:19] <darkwolf> the first time
[06:20] <pyro17> !opera
[06:20] <ubotu> opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[06:20] <darkwolf> then everytime I try to run opera after the first time after a log in I get: It appears another instance is using the same configuration directory because its lock file is active
[06:21] <pyro17> hmm
[06:21] <darkwolf> I know how to use adept, well the basics at least
[06:21] <darkwolf> I HAVE and Opera menu entry
[06:21] <darkwolf> it won't run
[06:22] <Jucato> darkwolf, try running it from Konsole to see if you have error messages that would give some clue
[06:23] <darkwolf> the same one I said before
[06:23] <darkwolf>  It appears another instance is using the same configuration directory because its lock file is active
[06:23] <darkwolf> I click yes and nothing happens
[06:24] <darkwolf> it asks if I want to run it anyway
[06:24] <Jucato> could you pastebin the error from Konsole?
[06:24] <darkwolf> thes the problem... there is no error in Konsole :(
[06:24] <Jucato> weird...
[06:25] <darkwolf> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[06:25] <darkwolf> thats what it says when I click no
[06:25] <Jucato> perhaps it's a problem with either the package itself or the package not working properly with Kubuntu's system...
[06:30] <darkwolf> wow, I fixed it
[06:30] <darkwolf> I am a genius
[06:30] <ere4si> if a movie ends in kaffeine the one played before it starts up - how do I get kaffeine to stop adding movies I play to a playlist and playing them automatically?
[06:30] <Jucato> darkwolf,
[06:30] <Jucato> yay!
[06:31] <darkwolf> unfortunately, flash still doesn't work in Opera :(
[06:31] <ere4si> blasted thing doesn't even ask
[06:32] <patrick__> hello
[06:32] <patrick__> how do i join a new server?
[06:33] <Colonel_Panic> hey can anybody point me in the direction of a good application for converting m4a audio files to mp3?
[06:33] <Jucato> patrick__, Konversation? File menu -> Server List -> Add a new server or just Quick Connect
[06:33] <Colonel_Panic> patrick__: type "/server? and then the address of the server
[06:34] <Jucato> that works too :)
[06:34] <Colonel_Panic> oops I mean "/server" then <irc.servername.net>
[06:34] <ravingloonietic> can anyone help me with installing nvidia 3d on hardy? I heard that it doesnt work on 2.6.24 kernel
[06:34] <Colonel_Panic> can anybody point me in the direction of a good application for converting m4a audio files to mp3?
[06:34] <Jucato> ravingloonietic, #ubuntu+1 for Hardy stuff
[06:35] <Colonel_Panic> when I use Audacity, is messes up the sound
[06:35] <Daisuke_Ido> Colonel_Panic, well...  i can't recommend anything, really
[06:36] <Daisuke_Ido> because lossy to lossy is contrary to my very nature
[06:36] <Daisuke_Ido> these songs from ITMS?
[06:36] <ravingloonietic> k thanks jucato
[06:36] <Colonel_Panic> ripped from CD
[06:36] <Colonel_Panic> not encrypted
[06:36] <Jucato> but m4a is still lossy
[06:37] <Daisuke_Ido> re-rip them if at all possible (use soundjuicer or KAudioCreator)
[06:37] <Jucato> nothing to do with encryption
[06:37] <Jucato> or k3b or konqueror :)
[06:37] <Colonel_Panic> ok
[06:37] <Daisuke_Ido> can't recommend konqueror, as neat as the audiocd:/ kioslave is
[06:38] <Daisuke_Ido> for most people it's fine, but i'm kinda particular about how i rip my cds :)
[06:38] <Jucato> (isn't it what kaudiocreator basically uses?)
[06:39] <Jucato> well I guess kaudiocreator has more options to fine tune ripping than the audiocd:/ kioslave
[06:39] <Daisuke_Ido> yep
[06:40] <Daisuke_Ido> both use cdparanoia on the backend, and lame if it's installed, but KAC has more options :)
[06:40] <Jucato> even more than the options in System Settings/KControl?
[06:40]  * Daisuke_Ido shrugs
[06:40]  * Jucato never checked..
[06:41]  * Jucato doesn't have audio cd's he wants to rip :)
[06:41] <Colonel_Panic> hmmm I keep getting that error message that another process is using the package database...
[06:42] <Daisuke_Ido> !aptfix

[06:49] <jeremy__> ok, so i really like kubuntu, and amarok... i feel like it's cleaner and nicer than the gnome alternative, but i'm having trouble detecting my ipod in kubuntu, and it seems to go a lot smoother

[07:19] <ubuntu> Ok
[07:19] <kkathman> good job jussi01 :)
[07:19] <monkeybritches> Looks like you might have to hold down 'Y' for a bit
[07:21] <ubuntu> Ill give it a go..
[07:25] <Alchera> i want to know why an IDE drive has a mount point at /proc/bus/usb when i even went into recovery mode, deleted the folder, created a new folder and re-edited fstab to reflect the correct settings (not that they were incorrect to start with).
[07:26] <monkeybritches> Because it's ornery?
[07:26] <Alchera> the os will come out if this cannot be fixed
[07:27] <monkeybritches> That one's beyond me but I hope you don't give up
[07:28] <Alchera> *if* it was actually a USB drive then that would not be a problem .. it's an IDE ... so how the hell is USB getting hold of it to start with? i knew 7.10 was bugged .. but this is plain stupid
[07:29] <monkeybritches> So it's an internal drive then, right, not an external USB drive with IDE interface?
[07:30] <Alchera> correct ... all i did was add another (500Gb) ide hdd
[07:30] <Alchera> i have three ide's
[07:30] <monkeybritches> Was the addition of the new drive what seemed to cause the problem?
[07:30] <Alchera> all EXT3
[07:30] <Alchera> it was something i was unaware of
[07:31] <monkeybritches> So does the drive work, but just doesn't show up as an IDE drive like it should?
[07:31] <Alchera> until i recently discovered a partition missing from the Storage Media bit
[07:31] <Alchera> works 100%
[07:32] <monkeybritches> Ok, I hope someone's reading this that understands why it might be doing that...
[07:32] <Alchera> something isn't working (in kubuntu) for this to happen
[07:33] <Alchera> and in the middle of all this i got myself a weird error .. nothing to so with drives
[07:33] <Alchera> No command arguments supplied!
[07:33] <Alchera> Usage: kdesudo [-u <runas>] <command>
[07:33] <Alchera> KdeSudo will now exit...
[07:36] <monkeybritches> Have you tried searching the ubuntu forums or linuxquestions.org?
[07:37] <Alchera> for that it's actually a known bug
[07:37] <Alchera> i have never had it before
[07:37] <Alchera> this is new .. lucky me :P
[07:39] <monkeybritches> You're a pioneer ;)
[07:39] <dwidmann> umm, darn, the xf86audionext key seems to not want to stop repeating ... anything i can do without restarting x/ 9shift/meta/etc keys aren't working either0
[07:39] <Alchera> it is probably a hangover from my trying to redo that drive ... a couple of attempts at killing usb
[07:40] <Alchera> for that kdesu (admin mode) was used .. it could fix itself
[07:41] <kumamoto>  /join #osx86
[07:41] <monkeybritches> Have you tried changing the order of the drives on the IDE cable?
[07:42] <Alchera> nope ... no need
[07:42] <Alchera> 40Gb ide hold the os .. 80Gb piggy backed to that .... 500Gb piggy backed to the dvd
[07:43] <Alchera> the new drive is the slave to the dvd-ram
[07:43] <monkeybritches> k
[07:43] <Alchera> pug'n,play it isn't
[07:44] <monkeybritches> Hmm, 300 people on the channel, where are all the answers ;)
[07:44] <Alchera> lol
[07:44] <Alchera> i tend to have strange probs
[07:45] <monkeybritches> Does no one here accept the challenge?!?!?
[07:45] <monkeybritches> ;D
[07:45] <Alchera> a couple .. that i cannot remember, i managed to sort ... :)
[07:45] <Alchera> that kdesudo one can be fixed by simply saving the session apparently
[07:46] <Alchera> i have another one too .. apart from the ide drive being read as a usb thing
[07:46] <Alchera> in konqueror in the Location menu i have two entries for Dolphin .. know how to remove the extra entry perchance
[07:46] <Alchera> ?
[07:51] <monkeybritches> I'm poking around, but I don't see where that option is yet
[07:53] <Alchera> i have no idea where that info is either .... i know it doesn't appear to be in .kde/share/apps/konqueror
[07:53] <kadko> the channel for kde 4.0.3 ?
[07:55] <monkeybritches> Did you try #kde?
[07:57] <Ukonpoika> !kde4 | kadko
[07:57] <ubotu> kadko: KDE 4.0.3 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0.3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.3.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.3.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4
[08:01] <Alchera> hmmm .. a final release
[08:03]  * Alchera wonders if installing kde 4 would solve that stupid usb problem
[08:03] <jussio1> unlikely
[08:04] <monkeybritches> Maybe it would break something else :)
[08:04] <Alchera> lol
[08:04] <Alchera> more than likely
[08:05] <Alchera> it just amazes me that the os sees an IDE drive as a USB one
[08:07] <monkeybritches> Have you tried disconnecting the drive and inserting a USB drive to assign the former address, and then reconnecting the IDE drive?
[08:07] <monkeybritches> Assuming you have one...
[08:10] <Alchera> i have an everyday datatraveller
[08:17] <Alchera>  /proc/bus/usb/devices doesn't have that drive listed .. :p
[08:57] <sigma_1234> how do you create a repo of your own?
[09:02] <Netham45> when does kde4 come out?
[09:02] <p_quarles> Netham45, like two months ago . . .
[09:03] <Netham45> ... really?
[09:03] <Netham45> I havn't been following it very closeley. :|
[09:03] <p_quarles> yes, it's out -- but won't be fully functional until 4.1, which is scheduled for June or July
[09:03] <Netham45> ok
[09:04] <Netham45> that might have been what I was going off of
[09:04] <mckulk> i cant find supported tv cards by ubuntu. can any one give an exact link?
[09:04] <p_quarles> what it has so far is very nice though -- the new Konqueror is great, etc.
[09:04] <Netham45> ok
[09:04] <Netham45> well, I just trashed my install of Linux by accident, so I amlooking to reinstall, heh.

[10:35] <llutz> Tex-Twil: you already have installed libqt3-mt-dev?
[10:35] <Tex-Twil> yes llutz
[10:35] <Tex-Twil> libqt3-headers  libqt3-compat-headers  too
[10:35] <llutz> Tex-Twil: gutsy has version 3.3, maybe that's too new.
[10:36] <llutz> Tex-Twil: have you checked config.log?
[10:36] <Tex-Twil> it's here http://pastebin.com/m5c186ef7
[10:38] <llutz> Tex-Twil: sounds like a version-problem, according to lines 1446, 1447
[10:39] <Tex-Twil> yes that's what I noticed too
[10:39] <Tex-Twil> this if statement
[10:39] <Tex-Twil> it looks like I have a too high version
[10:40] <Tex-Twil> oh no
[10:40] <Tex-Twil> there is a "!" before the condition
[10:41] <llutz> Tex-Twil: means "NOT"
[10:41] <Tex-Twil> yes
[10:41] <Tex-Twil> so if I have a version lowet than 3.1, exit
[10:41] <Tex-Twil> lower
[10:42] <llutz> Tex-Twil: try with explicit setting of qtdir "./configure --qtdir=/usr/share/qt3"
[10:42] <Tex-Twil> ok
[10:43] <Tex-Twil> llutz, --qtdir=/usr/share/qt3 or --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt3
[10:43] <Tex-Twil> configure: error: unrecognized option: --qtdir=/usr/share/qt3
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> Tex-Twil: is the folder there?
[10:44] <llutz> export QTDIR="/usr/share/qt3" && ./configure
[10:44] <Tex-Twil> ok
[10:44] <llutz> Tex-Twil: check if that is the right location...
[10:44] <Tex-Twil> ./configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt3/
[10:44] <Tex-Twil> this worked
[10:45] <Tex-Twil> halleluja
[10:45] <Tex-Twil> the QTDIR was wrong obiously
[10:46] <llutz> it's empty by default here
[10:49] <Tex-Twil> hmm configure went ok but during the make : http://pastebin.com/me9eb972

[10:55] <makdaknife> whew thought everyone left after I said hello!
[10:56] <yao_ziyuan> how do i disable remote login?
[10:57] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: remote login... as in SSH?
[10:58] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: you can stop your ssh server... /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[10:59] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: if you want to do this permanently, you could remove your ssh server... apt-get remove openssh-server
[10:59] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: naturally, you will need to be root to do this... sudo
[10:59] <yao_ziyuan> makdaknife: is ssh enabled by default?
[11:00] <makdaknife> hmmm not sure... I don't think so... but it is possible
[11:00] <yao_ziyuan> how do i check if ssh is enabled?
[11:00] <makdaknife> try: ssh localhost
[11:00] <makdaknife> if it asks for a login, its running
[11:02] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: ps -ef|grep sshd|grep -v grep
[11:02] <yao_ziyuan> it says: ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused
[11:02] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: that will also tell you if you have an ssh server running
[11:04] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: more than likely your are not running an ssh server then
[11:04] <yao_ziyuan> ok
[11:04] <yao_ziyuan> i don't want my government to remotely bruteforce out my root password by remote logins
[11:04] <cpk1> or the port is blocked
[11:05] <yao_ziyuan> the chinese govt
[11:05] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: in most ways, you probably do not have any remote login enabled
[11:05] <yao_ziyuan> my root password is 9 chars long
[11:05] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: best not to tell us that ;-)
[11:05] <cpk1> includes non ascii characters?
[11:05] <yao_ziyuan> ...
[11:05] <yao_ziyuan> cpk1: ...
[11:05] <cpk1> it should also have none ascii
[11:05] <yao_ziyuan> how long are you guys' root passwords?
[11:05] <cpk1> non-ascii
[11:05] <cpk1> i mean
[11:06] <yao_ziyuan> i can use unicode for root password?
[11:06] <cpk1> *@#()*&$#@)(*& are non-ascii
[11:07] <yao_ziyuan> they are
[11:07] <yao_ziyuan> or you was meaning non-alphabetic?
[11:07] <n1tro> I really got a weird problem.. I downloaded some World of warcraft addons and suddenly the files got "locked". I can't delete, move or overwrite them. What the hell is going on? :E
[11:07] <cpk1> I was just letting you know you should include those in your password if you are trying to make it secure
[11:08] <yao_ziyuan> well, i'm new to real security
[11:08] <yao_ziyuan> but my 9-char password is already random
[11:09] <makdaknife> yao_ziyuan: a random 9-char password should be more than sufficient

Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out

[11:50] <ubotu> devarox: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:50] <guess> is there anyone to help me.
[11:50] <Jucato> guess: depends on what kind of theme it is
[11:50] <Jucato> do you have a link where you got the theme from
[11:52] <hikejinx> guess, you'll might need to extract the theme first
[11:53] <guess> guess, after extracting.......
[11:53] <Jucato> depends. if it's an icon theme it doesn't need to be
[11:54] <Tex-Twil> do you know a graphical ftp client that support ssh ? I was using gedit but I d like to try something else
[11:54] <guess> Jucato, I tried to install but it is not getting installed
[11:54] <Jucato> [18:50] <Jucato> guess: depends on what kind of theme it is
[11:54] <Jucato> [18:50] <Jucato> do you have a link where you got the theme from
[11:55] <guess> Jucato, http://themes.freshmeat.net/projects/howe81-blue/ downloaded from this location
[11:55] <makdaknife> Tex-Twil: konqueror does fine
[11:55] <Jucato> Tex-Twil: Konqueror? kftpgrabber?
[11:55] <Jucato> Tex-Twil: why were you using gedit?
[11:55] <Tex-Twil> cos of ssh support
[11:55] <Jucato> any KDE app can use fish or sftp too
[11:56] <Tex-Twil> ok I ll try konqueror
[11:57] <hikejinx> guess: you're going old school with that theme.
[11:57] <Jucato> kwrite/kate can use fish:/ and sftp:/
[11:58] <Jucato> guess: unfortunately it uses an old and no longer supported .ktheme system
[11:58] <guess> hikejinx, Can u suggest any link to download a new KDE
[11:59] <guess> Jucato, can u suggest a link to download the latest KDE theme

[13:06] <sobczyk> hi, anyone knows how to center the splash screen when one changes the framebuffer resolution?
[13:08] <sobczyk> or the solution for corrupted screen with fglrx driver? :)
[13:13] <blaze> sobczyk » first edit /etc/usplash.conf and then do sudo update-initramfs -u
[13:14] <sobczyk> thx
[13:15] <Alchera> i have 3 ide hdd's ..... 2 are mounting correctly (as per my fstab settings) the new (3rd) drive isn't
[13:18] <Tex-Twil> Hello
[13:19] <Tex-Twil> how can I enable the "midnight commander" profile in konqueror
[13:20] <sobczyk> Alchera: did you try to mount them using "mount"
[13:20] <Alchera> i looked at device.map  ... only two drives are listed ....
[13:20] <Jucato> Tex-Twil: download this file http://jucato.org/kde/konq-profiles/midnightcommander to ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/profiles/
[13:21] <Alchera> oh yes ... even recovery mode .... deleting the folder used and creating a new one
[13:23] <Tex-Twil> Jucato, I already tried, but yhen I use this profile and change a dir on one side, it changes also on the other
[13:23] <Jucato> Tex-Twil: hm.. ok... I personally don't have experience with the mc profile...
[13:23] <sobczyk> "sudo fdisk -l" should list all your drives alond with partitions
[13:23] <Tex-Twil> ok Jucato
[13:24] <Alchera> Disk & Filesystems it shows as being mounted on /proc/bus/usb
[13:26] <Alchera> sobczyk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62505/
[13:29] <sobczyk> Alchera: fdisk sees all your drives so they should mount correctly
[13:29] <Alchera> sobczyk: /dev/hdb1 is the drive being (apparently) mounted on /proc/bus/usb
[13:30] <Alchera> end result, and why i started digging, it doesn't show in Storage Media
[13:30] <Alchera> the other partitions do
[13:30] <sobczyk> try umount it from the /proc/bus/usb
[13:31] <Alchera> cannot unmount usb
[13:31] <sobczyk> or umount /dev/hdb1
[13:31] <Alchera> so it keeps telling me
[13:32] <sobczyk> what exactly it tells you?
[13:33] <Alchera> i'll try again .. and report back .. one sec
[13:34] <Alchera> umount: /media/store: device is busy
[13:34] <Alchera> umount: /media/store: device is busy
[13:34] <Alchera> i get it in duplicate because it's also actually mounted as per fstab also ... apparently
[13:34] <twager> When I burn mp3 files as .wav using K3B I do not get the track titles just track numbers. Any way I can get titles ?
[13:36] <sobczyk> Alchera: you can try the -f (force) option with umount
[13:37] <Alchera> hmmm ... never thought of that .... a permanent solution is needed though
[13:38] <sobczyk> when you rebooted you noticed that there is a second mount point?
[13:41] <Alchera> i have rebooted and it was as described
[13:42] <luke> how do i set up a wacom tablet in linux
[13:43] <Alchera> sobczyk: an entry missing in device.map could be the issue?
[13:45] <sobczyk> device.map is afaik only for grub
[13:45] <Dr_willis> !wacom
[13:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wacom - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[13:45] <Dr_willis> !tablet
[13:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tablet - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[13:45] <Alchera> yup sobczyk
[13:45] <Dr_willis> Grrr... there used to be a factoid.  or a wiki page.

[14:20] <Pici> its been quiet here.

[14:23] <F-3000> Hi! I'm wondering if there's someone who could help me. I tried to dublicate the screen with my friend's laptop, onto my tube-screen, but now x-server doesn't start. Just gives "Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting" when I try startx.
[14:24] <genii> F-3000: How was it you trie to "duplicate the screen" ? Did you copy his xorg.conf file to your machine or something similar?
[14:25] <F-3000> genii, I tried to do it thru System settings-panel.
[14:26] <genii> F-3000: Do you remember perhaps the last thing you changed there?
[14:27] <F-3000> humm...
[14:27] <F-3000> Is there a screenshot from the "display & monitor"-setting panel anywhere?
[14:29] <genii> F-3000: So you changed probably screen resolution then, or possibly Power Saving or Hardware ?
[14:30] <genii> F-3000: Is it dumping you now to console (text) or do you see at all the login screen?
[14:31] <dannybuntu> jucato: my main man you there?
[14:31] <F-3000> genii, dumps on the console.
[14:31] <dannybuntu> jucato: obi wan kenobi you are my only hope :)
[14:32] <twoten> hi there!
[14:32] <twoten> I just installed kde4
[14:33] <dannybuntu> cool twoten me too !
[14:33] <twoten> but it doesn't show up as a session option in my login menu!
[14:33] <twoten> do I need to reboot?
[14:34] <BluesKaj> that might work
[14:34] <dannybuntu> maybe these guys could help #kubuntu-kde4
[14:34] <F-3000> genii, it's possible that it also changed the screen resolution, as it did it immediately after I determined secondary screen.
[14:34] <twoten> looks good, I'll give them a try!
[14:34] <dannybuntu> good luck :)
[14:34] <twoten> thanks!
[14:34] <genii> F-3000: OK, so at console: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg                        will allow you from text mode to adjust only the resolutions
[14:34] <makdaknife> dannybuntu: hey if you only want jucato... then I guess I can't give you a hand!
[14:34] <F-3000> Yet, without actually turning the screen mirroring on.
[14:34] <Jucato> dannybuntu: pong
[14:35] <dannybuntu> jucato: woot man i have a serious issue
[14:35] <dannybuntu> pm?
[14:35] <Jucato> dannybuntu: sure
[14:35] <genii> F-3000: Choose some sane top resolution, then after finished with that,:  sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[14:36] <clau30> I want to put my dektop PC in standby, but it doesn't work..
[14:36] <Coggz> hi, im using my tablet pc!!! on screen keyboard
[14:36] <clau30> just the screensaver appears
[14:37] <clau30> anyone any idea why (maybe because nvidia proprietary drivers)?
[14:38] <Coggz> hi
[14:38] <BluesKaj> clau30, I hate to say it , some ppl maintain it isn't necessary ,but maybe a reboot will help ?
[14:39] <clau30> BluesKaj: no, unfortunately it never worked
[14:39] <BluesKaj> ok
[14:39] <clau30> don't even know where to search for the problem
[14:40] <BluesKaj> clau30, did you use admin mode to change your power settings
[14:40] <Coggz> how do i disable compiz?
[14:40] <clau30> BluesKaj: what do you mean? I went to shut down -> standby
[14:40] <clau30> hibernate doesn't work either..
[14:40] <nyko> hi i got msgfmt error where i got that ?
[14:41] <F-3000> genii, t hanks for the help. Didn't have time to try your method, as I had it working with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" (altho I wish I would have tried yours first! :D).
[14:42] <genii> F-3000: So you have gui again?
[14:42] <F-3000> genii, But I copy/pasted and will keep your tip in safe. :) Yah, it works again.
[14:42] <genii> F-3000: God, that is the main thing.
[14:42] <genii> *good
[14:42]  * genii needs some more caffeine
[14:44]  * Ilu-babe needs kaffeine for kde4
[14:45] <Piero_Scarufii> genii
[14:45] <Piero_Scarufii> i need more life
[14:45] <Piero_Scarufii> how to install KDE4 plz
[14:46] <Ilu-babe> sudo apt-get install kde4-core
[14:47] <Piero_Scarufii> and i will keep my gnome and kde3 also then?
[14:48] <BluesKaj> Piero_Scarufii, yes , just choose your desktop in the login menu
[14:49] <Ilu-babe> well i had a problem with settings from kde3 changing stuff in kde4, but i dunno if it was my imagination, (and it was back in the "alpha" days)
[14:49] <Ilu-babe> i never tried gnome
[14:50] <Ilu-babe> not in kubuntu anyways
[14:50] <BluesKaj> the kde4 apps will run in kde 3 but dunno about gnome. AFAIK they should
[14:50] <Piero_Scarufii> no i mean if i install kde4 will i keep my kde3 and gnome as separate desktop environments?
[14:50] <Ilu-babe> yes
[14:50] <genii> Yes
[14:50] <Piero_Scarufii> i mean as a session
[14:50] <Piero_Scarufii> ok ty
[14:51] <Piero_Scarufii> yes i know the kde4 apps will be available allover
[14:51] <Piero_Scarufii> its the same with kde3 in gnome
[14:51] <Piero_Scarufii> i think
[14:51] <Piero_Scarufii> i will have to hide them from all the menus
[14:53] <F-3000> genii, thanks for your helping. You reminded me why I can't stop liking humans. ;)
[14:55] <Ilu-babe> where can i find my hdd's UUID?
[14:55] <genii> F-3000: You're welcome
[14:55] <genii> Ilu-babe: blkid
[14:57] <nyko> genii: you are at work now ?
[14:58] <nyko> me im sick right now so :(
[14:58] <Ilu-babe> umn cant get an output :/
[15:04] <Ilu-babe> genii: how do i use blkid?
[15:05] <Ilu-babe> read the man but it wont print anything :/
[15:07] <genii> nyko: Yes, at this time during weekdays I am connecting from work (so sometimes I will not respond for long periods)
[15:08] <genii> Ilu-babe: Normally just the command: blkid   will list all your partitions and their UUID and filesystem type. If blkid reports nothing then it is conceivable your hard drives do not have any UUID
[15:09] <Ilu-babe> well thats kinda strange since it reports an error when i boot :/
[15:10] <Ilu-babe> I was sure it was the UUID, well im gonna look for other causes
[15:12] <genii> Ilu-babe: In files like menu.lst or fstab where there is an UUID listed but blkid reports no UUIDs for any partitions, you can replace the UUID in these files with the older-style way of the devicename like /dev/sda1
[15:12] <genii> Something like this normally would only happen if you moved your system over to a new hd for instance, where the old one had some UUID but the new one does not
[15:14] <Ilu-babe> well i installed kubuntu 8.04 (kde3) on sda2, and after that 8.04 (kde4) on sda1, when i boot kde3 i get the error
[15:15] <Ilu-babe> thansk genii :D
[15:17] <genii> Ilu-babe: np. There is also an alternate method of finding UUID, which is: ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ -alh                  but if blkid isn't reporting any, I doubt this command will either.
[15:17] <Ilu-babe> it did
[15:18] <Ilu-babe> DOH!!!
[15:18] <Ilu-babe> i forgot root
[15:18] <Ilu-babe> lol
[15:19] <genii> nyko: So you are getting some "msgfmt" error? What are you doing when this happens?
[15:20] <nyko> genii: its allright i find my problem i do sudo apt-get pidgin and now work :P
[15:21] <genii> nyko: Ah, good to see you are finding how to solve problems. Soon you will be helping others :)
[15:22] <nyko> genii:  lol i hope so
[15:24] <nyko> genii: do he have a way to get password on always not have to put pasword every time enter in adept or system management
[15:25] <genii> nyko: Yes, in the /etc/sudoers file, but this can also be dangerous and is not recommended
[15:25] <nyko> genii:  ok nvm then its what i was thinking but thanks
[15:25] <genii> nyko: np
[15:26] <Tex-Twil> Do you know why a "fish://" trasnfer via Konquror or Krusader is MUCH slower (300 KB/s) than a command line "scp" trasnfer (5MB/s) ?
[15:26] <makdaknife> Tex-Twil: use sftp not fish
[15:27] <Ilu-babe> gonna restart to check my theory
[15:27] <Ilu-babe> brb
[15:27] <Tex-Twil> but for sftp I need to set up the server dont I ?
[15:27] <Tex-Twil> or a ssh server is enough ?
[15:27] <makdaknife> Tex-Twil: ssh server is enough
[15:28] <makdaknife> Tex-Twil: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu-users/2006-April/005121.html
[15:28] <Tex-Twil> Im trying rihht now and it is slow too makdaknife
[15:28] <max_> I have a question... I have 2 PC, 1 is intell based (with linux)  and the other is Power Pc (with linux) , if I compile a software with gcc under linux, can I execute this program on the power pc and intel  PC both?
[15:29] <genii> max_: No, you would need to cross-compile for the specific machine
[15:29] <Tex-Twil> thx for the link makdaknife
[15:29] <makdaknife> Tex-Twil: hmmm I do know that using konqueror does tend to be slower than command line... but shouldn't be that much of a difference
[15:29] <Tex-Twil> yes, strange
[15:30] <max_> genii  :  OK...
[15:30] <Tex-Twil> I tried also with Krusader and it's also around 300 KB/s
[15:37] <genii> Tex-Twil: Might be related to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/63958
[15:38] <_myrtille_> hi :)
[15:39] <_myrtille_> genii: i suppose it won't be of any help for others: But my lanconnection at work worked fine today
[15:39] <_myrtille_> genii: so i'm starting to suspect, that some other component was at fault yesterday and that it was not actually a software problem
[15:40] <Tex-Twil> ok genii
[15:40] <Tex-Twil> apparently not resolved bugs
[15:41] <genii> _myrtille_: Good to hear :)

[15:47] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[15:47] <genii> So 16 days
[15:48] <vistalite> i help i just installed kde4-core but non of the apps like amarok and konversation have kde4 versions how do i get all the kde4 apps?
[15:48] <vistalite> genii:
[15:48] <vistalite> help me
[15:48] <vistalite> Jucato:
[15:48] <vistalite> nalioth:
[15:48] <vistalite> help please
[15:48] <jaro> try apt-get
[15:48] <vistalite> also the picture viewer is gnome
[15:48] <Jucato> vistalite: you can't yet. amarok and konversation don't have *stable* KDE 4 releases
[15:48] <genii> vistalite: If you just say what the problem is first then whoever may know likely will try to assist
[15:48] <Jucato> (in konversation, there isn't even one yet)
[15:49] <vistalite> how can i get these unstable versions jucato and also when i click on a photo its opened with the gnome image viewer?
[15:49] <vistalite> its a mess :D
[15:50] <vistalite> also is there an office for kde4?
[15:50] <Jucato> don't know about your gnome viewer problem. and I don't suggest using an unstable version of amarok unless you know what you are doing (and if you are even asking "how", then you don't)
[15:50] <emilsedgh> vistalite: not released yet
[15:50] <Jucato> also alpha/beta (unstable)
[15:50] <vistalite> ok Jucato
[15:50] <vistalite> thanks
[15:50] <makdaknife> vistalite: there isn't an unstable version of konversation for kde4... if you are struggling to use kde4, then you probably shouldn't be using it
[15:51] <aos101> I think amarok is being developed for kde4.1, so won't work on 4.0 in any case.
[15:51] <emilsedgh> but KOffice is the future of office in FreeSoftware, OO.o is a mess i think
[15:51] <vistalite> i am not struggling i am surprised its running so fast considering i running everything via wubi
[15:51] <Jucato> aos101: it will. but it's unstable
[15:51] <makdaknife> aos101: there is an amarok package that works on 4.0
[15:51] <funcrush> Is kde not good for eclipse?
[15:52] <vistalite> is there a way to use browser apps on the desktop with a widget?
[15:52] <Jucato> browser apps?
[15:52] <aos101> Ah OK.  I thought I saw they are introducing some Qt4.4 only features into amarok.
[15:52] <Jucato> funcrush: huh?
[15:53] <vistalite> i want to use Buzzword as my main word processor on kde4
[15:53] <Jucato> aos101: hm.. depends... maybe because of Plasma? so yeah, it won't probably run on 4.0 because of that
[15:53] <vistalite> i could use mozzila prism
[15:53] <vistalite> but i was wondering if kde4 has a native app that can do it
[15:53] <funcrush> Jucato: I runed a servlet on tomcat but eclipse was killed
[15:53] <emilsedgh> aos101: Amarok is using Webkit, so Qt 4.4 is needed.but i dont know what exactly stops them from using KHTML
[15:53] <Jucato> emilsedgh: plasma -> qtwebkit
[15:54] <vistalite> can i get the kopete for kde4?
[15:54] <makdaknife> aos101: amusingly the amarok for 4.0 has Pre-Alpha Means: We know it's unstable printed in red across the top
[15:54] <emilsedgh> Jucato: yeah, it uses that too, but either i dont know why they use it and not KHTML
[15:55] <makdaknife> vistalite: yes, there is a version of kopete for kde4, its a little buggy but it works okay
[15:55] <Jucato> emilsedgh: try asking why Plasma doesn't use KHTML? :)
[15:55] <vistalite> makdaknife:  how can i download it
[15:55] <makdaknife> vistalite: once again, if you are still trying to work out how to install software etc, you probably shouldn't be playing around with beta apps
[15:55] <genii> funcrush: Not really. Although there have been a couple attempts to integrate it better, http://developer.kde.org/summerofcode/eclipse.html and http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=KDE-Eclipse   have some info
[15:55] <vistalite> kopete rox for it allows me to use adium message style
[15:55] <vistalite> s
[15:56] <vistalite> makdaknife:
[15:56] <emilsedgh> Jucato: i dont like webkit
[15:56] <vistalite> tell me please
[15:56] <vistalite> i want too learn
[15:56] <Jucato> vistalite: Kopete for KDE 4 is available in the repos. please ask in #kubuntu-kde4
[15:56] <vistalite> ty
[15:56] <vistalite> Jucato:
[15:57] <funcrush> genii: thank you
[15:58] <vistalite> i love webkit
[15:58] <vistalite> kde4 will be running osx apps in no time D:
[15:58] <Jucato> vistalite: wrong
[15:59] <Jucato> osx apps? no. osx widgets? maybe. (depends on QtWebKit's performance)
[15:59] <genii> funcrush: You're welcome

[16:07] <nyko> genii: do you know where i can get sound for kopete
[16:09] <genii> nyko: I do not know much about kopete
[16:09] <nyko> genii: okok
[16:12] <sven_oostenbrink> Does K3B support kioslaves? as in, Is it possible to burn CD's directly from ISO's that are located on another server with an SSH connection?
[16:14] <_myrtille_> nyko: are you looking for sound notification with kopete? This can be personalized in kcontrol
[16:14] <tomahasamoot2> Where can I get firewall help?
[16:15] <nyko> genii: do you know the directory of sound in windows
[16:16] <makdaknife> sven_oostenbrink: I don't think so... but I doubt that you really want to try to burn a CD from a file hosted remotely... you'll probably end up with a collection of coasters
[16:16] <makdaknife> tomahasamoot2: what sort of firewall issues are you having?
[16:17] <tomahasamoot2> BitTorrent seems a little funny, it might be nothing...

[16:20] <makdaknife> tomahasamoot2: what bittorrent problems then?
[16:20] <sven_oostenbrink> makdaknife> okay, thanks
[16:21] <tomahasamoot2> makdaknife: it seems like the preformance is lower, but that's just a "feeling"
[16:22] <makdaknife> tomahasamoot2: heh... feelings are hard to go on
[16:23] <tomahasamoot2> makdaknife: yeah, I'm thinking the same.  It might just be heavy traffic at the momment
[16:24] <tomahasamoot2> makdaknife: but let me ask you this, do I really want Logging of blocked & rejected packets (the default)?
[16:30] <makdaknife> tomahasamoot2: you don't need to keep a log... its just useful if you're trying to audit
[16:31] <tomahasamoot2> makdaknife: thanks
[16:31] <tomahasamoot2> makdaknife: do you think it will make a noticable prefromance impact?
[16:33] <makdaknife> tomahasamoot2: I doubt you'll notice

[16:56] <tomas__> bibis
[16:56] <dthacker> I have an unlabled that's got Kubuntu on it.  How can I tell what version without booting it?
[16:56] <dthacker> unlabeled CD that is

[17:00] <hydrogen> we're busy ignoring you
[17:03] <genii> dthacker: Normally if you put the cd in it's icon should appear on desktop, with it's label (in *buntu cd the label indicates it's version)
[17:04] <dthacker> genii: lol, that was too easy.
[17:05] <genii> dthacker: :)

[17:10] <agm> i forgot the name of application i once used  it was like katapult but circular and icons around it
[17:10] <agm> can anyone help
[17:22] <crackhead_25> anyone know why my system monitor reads only one cpu when i have an amd x2 (dual core) processor??
[17:22] <crackhead_25> i have another computer, a laptop, which has an intel 2 core, and system monitor there reads 2 cpus..
[17:23] <Azzco> crackhead_25: what system monitor? ksysguard? (I don't have a dualcore but if you're talking about sensors you might need to redo the detect part)
[17:23] <crackhead_25> ksysguard, i guess.. k menu, system, system monitor
[17:23] <Azzco> agm: I remeber such an app too, was it basicly a menu you could edit yourself?
[17:24] <iliya_> Hi everybody :)
[17:24] <crackhead_25> Azzco: what do you mean? it recognizes the right cpu, but it doesn't show the cpu as being two cpus.. should it?
[17:25] <Azzco> crackhead_25: I'm sorry I can't help you, I was just curious about what app you were using, might help someone to help you ;)
[17:27] <agm> i found the it its called kommando
[17:28] <agm> the apps called kommando
[17:28] <iliya_> I'm foloving manual https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT61 but I have prob with step 'Configuring the connection'
[17:28] <iliya_> I'm conecting to public network and pass is 'mnnews' which is shorter than 8 char and I cant generate WPA Key using the following command: $ wpa_passphrase YOUR_SSID YOUR_PASSPHRASE
[17:29] <iliya_> Any solutoin
[17:29] <iliya_> :(
[17:36] <crackhead_25> iliya_: look up on google a wpa passphrase translator
[17:37] <crackhead_25> http://www.xs4all.nl/~rjoris/wpapsk.html
[17:37] <crackhead_25> try that
[17:38] <crackhead_25> iliya_: also try just 0's before the actual word
[17:38] <genii> I think if you use wpasupplicant you don't need to run wpa_passphrase at any point
[17:38] <crackhead_25> in this case, 00mnnews
[17:38] <iliya_> thanks crackhead I will try
[17:40] <Kaevik> yea it is suposed to add in WPA ability to KNetworkManager.
[17:41] <Kaevik> oh .. I got it working...
[17:42] <iliya_> It is RT2561 so I need to use wpa
[17:42] <Kaevik> all I did was go into the interfaces file /etc/network/ and delete everything under prefered interface now I see wireless networks from the knetworkmanager icon
[17:43] <iliya_> I will try thet
[17:43] <iliya_> I will try that
[17:43] <Kaevik> it cape up evne auto detected that my wireless was using WPAPe4rsonal and everything

[17:43] <sdssa> hi
[17:44] <Kaevik> too excited. been off/on working on this for over a week.
[17:44] <Almafuerte> a dude
[17:44] <Almafuerte> what version of kubuntu have I got to use for an intel core duo?
[17:45] <jussi01> Almafuerte: amd64 or i386, but if you are new, go with th i386
[17:46] <Almafuerte> mm
[17:46] <Almafuerte> jussi01 why?
[17:46] <Almafuerte> why if I'm new I should use i386?
[17:46] <jussi01> Almafuerte: somethings in 64 bit take a bit of fiddling. like flash, java etc.
[17:47] <Almafuerte> ahhh
[17:47] <Almafuerte> yes
[17:47] <Almafuerte> well I'm not new
[17:47] <genii> Almafuerte: Yes, more things will just work out of the box
[17:47] <Almafuerte> It will be used for development
[17:47] <Almafuerte> web design
[17:48] <Almafuerte> jussi01 can I have trouble with java!
[17:48] <Almafuerte> uh
[17:48] <jussio1> !java64 | Almafuerte
[17:48] <ubotu> Almafuerte: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[17:49] <Almafuerte> but can you use the jvm to develop?
[17:51] <Almafuerte> well, if I install i386, will I have efficience anyway?
[17:52] <jussio1> Almafuerte: I suggest using 32 bit, unless you have a _lot_ of ram, the difference is hard to notice
[17:52] <Almafuerte> 2,2gb ram
[17:53] <Almafuerte> it has got 2,2gb of ram
[17:55] <Almafuerte> ??????????
[17:55] <jussio1> Almafuerte: thats fine, 32 bit is all good then.
[17:56] <Almafuerte> ok
[17:56] <Almafuerte> so what's the difference?

[19:10] <adrock358> has anyone ever tried to access there win part from ubuntu?
[19:11] <adrock358> Anybody?
[19:11] <adrock358> I'm having troble doing it
[19:11] <JoshOvki> i do daily, it just works
[19:11] <adrock358> realy?
[19:11] <adrock358> i can't do mine...
[19:12] <adrock358> i have to mount it and put in all kinds of crazy instructions.  how did you set it up?
[19:12] <JoshOvki> i didnt, it set its self up with the install
[19:12] <JoshOvki> pastebin your /etc/fstab   and put the link here
[19:13] <JoshOvki> i will b back in a few mins, gonna see what ive got to eat
[19:13] <adrock358> ok.  but you will be surprised.  I am impressed it set itself up automatically.  I can't mount my part from ubuntu.  Cool man---get your grub on....
[19:14] <adrock358> My windows is all screwed up, so I want to grab all my important info and movies, then reinstall.  So, I gotta mount it.  I'll paste my fstab, and my commands to mount, and the output from that.  The mounting commands worked before, but after I tried to tinker with my windows--to fix it, it has now become inaccessible...
[19:17] <JoshOvki> nothing to eat will have to go shop at somepoint instead. Did you shutdown windows incorrectaly?
[19:18] <adrock358> What command do I type in for stab?
[19:18] <JoshOvki> kwrite /etc/fstab    to read it
[19:19] <adrock358> thanks...
[19:19] <mag666> Azzco: thx i make it without your program but most important is that already works :)
[19:19] <adrock358> gotta install kwrite, 1 sec
[19:20] <adrock358> or 1 min more liekly
[19:20] <adrock358> yeah man i just messed up my windows man.  it won't even start
[19:21] <adrock358> alright, half way through kwrite or "Kate" install.
[19:22] <JoshOvki> adrock358: what did you do to that? and did u shutdown incorrectly?
[19:23] <adrock358> no.  i somehow got locked out--reduced funcionality mode.  then in trying to fix that, I tried to rearm it, and now it hangs on start-up.  It stays on the pre-login screen for 20 minutes.
[19:25] <adrock358> ok.  here's my info: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62542/
[19:25] <JoshOvki> alright then, i shall take a look
[19:26] <adrock358> sweet
[19:26] <JoshOvki> adrock358: ok, is your drive formated to NTFS?
[19:26] <adrock358> my windows drive?  Oh shit, maybe I did that by mistake when I was playing with Hiren?
[19:26] <adrock358> it's supposed to be fat32 right?
[19:27] <JoshOvki> u can use both
[19:27] <adrock358> yeah, no it's NTFS
[19:27] <JoshOvki> ok, not a problem, and do you know what /mnt  location it is?
[19:28] <adrock358> it's not monted
[19:28] <JoshOvki>   /dev sorry
[19:28] <adrock358> yeah
[19:28] <adrock358> hda1
[19:28] <JoshOvki> kk
[19:28] <Kaevik> hmmm Eureka7?
[19:29] <JoshOvki> right you will have to add a line to your fstab so close it (if you still have it open)
[19:29] <adrock358> yeah
[19:30] <JoshOvki> adrock358: and run  sudo kwrite /etc/fstb
[19:30] <adrock358> which lne?
[19:30] <adrock358> ok
[19:31] <JoshOvki> and add in           /dev/hda1     /media/sda2     ntfs    defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[19:31] <JoshOvki> on a new line
[19:31] <JoshOvki> and then save that and run     sudo mount -a
[19:32] <adrock358> i did it.  terminal gave me an error though: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62544/
[19:33] <JoshOvki> adrock358: but it still didnt open?
[19:33] <adrock358> no i got it.  here: adrock@adrock-desktop:~$  sudo mount -a

[19:39] <adrock358> all right i'm back
[19:39] <JoshOvki> wb
[19:41] <adrock358> Hey, thanks a lot for trying to help me out.  I really appreciate it.  I'm sure it is a learning experience for you though.  I unfortunately am not well versed in ubunut, and due to time constraints i can't spend a whole lot of time playing with it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62546/
[19:43] <JoshOvki> darn me, sorry i gave you the wrong thing to run,  sudo fdisk /dev/hda1   and press   p   and then pastebin
[19:43] <JoshOvki> adrock358: its odd for your kubuntun not to pick up the NTFS drive when u installed
[19:43] <genii> JoshOvki: He has an ntfs raid0 setup
[19:44] <JoshOvki> genii: over to you then
[19:44] <genii> JoshOvki: No, you're doing fine :)
[19:44] <adrock358> no prob man. :http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62547/
[19:44] <adrock358> no, it does pick it up, but i can't mount it.
[19:44] <adrock358> i can see it.
[19:45]  * JoshOvki coughs   you ran the wrong one ;)
[19:45] <adrock358> JoshOvki.  hahaha.  genii stuck you back with me.
[19:45] <adrock358> what?
[19:45] <JoshOvki> im trying to get the drive name so we can get it to mount
[19:45] <JoshOvki> you ran     sudo fdisk /dev/sda1     instead of    sudo fdisk /dev/hda1
[19:46] <adrock358> sorry.   Unable to open /dev/hda1
[19:46] <adrock358> is waht it says
[19:47] <adrock358> that's my windows parition
[19:47] <JoshOvki> apparently not
[19:47] <adrock358> i had some instructions to open it from someone, which worked, but now they don't, and they give me this strange error.
[19:48] <JoshOvki> what did they get you to run?
[19:48] <adrock358> says i need to boot back intow indows twice, or run chkdsk, but i already ran chkdsk.  maybe i should run it again?

[19:50] <adrock358> ahhh.
[19:50] <JoshOvki> when you restart try booting into safemode (if you know how)
[19:50] <_myrtille_> genii:thx
[19:51] <adrock358> yeah, but it doesn't boot because i am locked out of windows in reduced functionality mode.  i'll give it a try though.  i'll be right back.
[19:51] <nyko> genii: how to install domino :P
[19:51] <adrock358> how do i run chkdsk though, in case safe mode not work?
[19:51] <JoshOvki> umm, you will need a windows xp boot disk
[19:52] <adrock358> i ahve that
[19:52] <adrock358> what command?
[19:52] <JoshOvki> ummm i think its chkdsk   once your in the windows xp boot recovery part
[19:52] <adrock358> how do i get into xp boot recovery
[19:52] <adrock358> i also have hiren
[19:52] <adrock358> and gparted if that would do anything.
[19:53] <JoshOvki> when you put the cd in and boot you press any key, and then at one point it will say press 'r' to enter recovery console (near the start)
[19:54] <adrock358> cool man.  thanks.  i will be back sir.  thanks again.
[19:56] <genii> nyko: I think all you need to do is download it from http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Domino+Kubuntu+package?content=52864      and then install the deb file. Then it will be accessible as another theme to use
[19:57] <genii> _myrtille_: You're welcome
[19:59] <nyko> genii:
[19:59] <nyko> thanks again
[20:00] <genii> nyko: np

[20:08] <_myrtille_> :)
[20:09] <pepe_> Bye Bye
[20:14] <klerfayt> how to see what blocks my sound
[20:16] <adrock358> josh still here?
[20:17] <JoshOvki> hey
[20:17] <adrock358> I ran chkdsk from NTFS Dos Pro.  I couldn't use xp repair because i dont have the vista admin password from the original bios
[20:17] <JoshOvki> ok
[20:17] <adrock358> all i want to do man, is recover some data.  is there another, easy way?
[20:18] <adrock358> i've got my ipod all set to go, ready to dowbload some gigs off my vista, then erase the whole thing.  mounting it seemed the best way to do that.
[20:18] <JoshOvki> not with NTFS drives, pull the drive out and put it in anouther windows machine
[20:18] <adrock358> the only other i have is a laptop
[20:18] <adrock358> dang
[20:19] <adrock358> and it's not even my laptop
[20:19] <JoshOvki> needs to be a pc really
[20:19] <JoshOvki> ummm
[20:19] <adrock358> how come with my original mount instructions, it mounted, and now it won't?
[20:19] <JoshOvki> because linux needs it to be shutdown properly with windows for it to be able to read the ntfs
[20:20] <adrock358> i could put another drive in this windows machine, but not the inverse
[20:20] <ScorpKing> JoshOvki: you can force mount it
[20:20] <adrock358> right, i tried, but that didn't work.  right josh?
[20:20] <JoshOvki> ScorpKing: over to you then (ive never forced it)
[20:20] <adrock358> wasn't that the second command i put in?
[20:21] <adrock358> yeah force it.  i don't give a damn, i just want to extract some data off it
[20:21] <ScorpKing> JoshOvki: it should tell you exactly what to do in the error message when you try to mount it manually
[20:21] <adrock358> ScorpKing, let me give you my readout
[20:21] <JoshOvki> ScorpKing: he was given a command to run to mount it before, although im not sure what it is
[20:21] <adrock358> i'll get it
[20:21] <ScorpKing> adrock358: righto
[20:22]  * JoshOvki goes back to making dinner
[20:23] <adrock358> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62554/
[20:23] <ScorpKing> adrock358: you can also run chkdsk from a windows cd if you want to check it
[20:24] <adrock358> from vista cd, how?
[20:24] <adrock358> xp doesn't work because i need admin password
[20:24] <babban> hallo
[20:24] <adrock358> i don't have that for my vista install.  not for the bios.
[20:24] <adrock358> it's an emulated bios
[20:26] <adrock358> scorpking and josh, what if i just erase the directory mnt/vista that already exists, then retry my commands?
[20:26] <ScorpKing> adrock358: ok i see now. you will have to run a windows cd. have a xp disk lying around?
[20:26] <adrock358> yeah i do but can'
[20:26] <adrock358> t use the repair fn cuz need vista admin pass to get inot it
[20:26] <ScorpKing> adrock358: if you reset the pass ;)
[20:26] <adrock358> how
[20:27] <ScorpKing> gimme a sec
[20:27] <adrock358> that would save me a lot
[20:27] <adrock358> great
[20:27] <adrock358> i'll be here.
[20:27] <adrock358> i'm almost in agony over this whole thing.
[20:27] <adrock358> No, I am most definitly in agony over this whole thing.
[20:28] <ScorpKing> adrock358: can i pm you?
[20:28] <adrock358> of course
[20:28] <nyko> genii: how to install flash player in x64 bit :P
[20:28] <reese> hi! when I try to watch a dvd with kaffeine, it often says "audio output unavailable". is this happening only to me? (i have all libdvdread, libdvdcss2)
[20:28] <genii> nyko: Don't know
[20:29] <genii> nyko: I hear flash on 64 bit is one of the tricky installs
[20:31] <adrock358> reese.  does it happen with all dvd's?
[20:32] <reese> adrock258: no, not always
[20:32] <reese> adrock258: i use xine, with kaffeine
[20:32] <adrock358> did you try reinstalling kaff?  or trying a different player?
[20:32] <adrock358> try  a diff player, or reinstall, then see.
[20:33] <adrock358> that should help you narrow down your problem at least
[20:34] <reese> ok, i'll try. i've noticed that i get synchronization problems, also, when I play avi's. maybe I should change audio engine
[20:34] <adrock358> yeah.  change the audio engine
[20:34] <adrock358> sounds like it might just be a simple codec problem
[20:34] <reese> what engine do you use?
[20:35] <adrock358> i just use xine
[20:35] <adrock358> vlc also
[20:35] <adrock358> vlc is good.
[20:35] <adrock358> maybe you should try vlc.
[20:35] <reese> i'll give it a try, thanks
[20:36] <double> I do not get a bug report dialog when firefox or another app crashes, I have apport-qt installed and it runs, is there a config I'm missing?
[20:36] <adrock358> uninstall the other player before you do that though--just to make sure no residule files or codec remain.
[20:39] <ScorpKing> adrock358: can you reply in the pm?
[20:39] <adrock358> yeah
[20:39] <adrock358> i did
[20:39] <adrock358> you didn't get it?
[20:39] <ScorpKing> no.
[20:39] <adrock358> i've been doing it for like five minutes
[20:39] <adrock358> huh.  let's try another one.
[20:39] <ScorpKing> adrock358: does it not say you need to be registred?
[20:40] <adrock358> doesn't say that.  i didn't log in with my passwor, let me log out then come back.  i will be back quick.  i really, relly need your help
[20:40] <adrock358> brb
[20:41] <ScorpKing> adrock358: i have all the stuff ready
[20:43]  * Signil is away: Gone away for now.
[20:44] <adrock359> scorpking.  how i register?
[20:44] <adrock359> i put in my password and everything
[20:44] <Odd-rationale> !register | adrock359
[20:44] <ubotu> adrock359: By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname.
[20:46] <reese> how can you I interrupt a sudo apt-get install?
[20:46] <adrock359> scorpking, says i gotta wait two mintues before i register.  sorry dude.  if you want you can e-mail me at adrock358@gmail.com or you can wait two minutes
[20:46] <adrock359> ctrl c i think reese
[20:46] <ScorpKing> adrock359: ok i'm sending it now with instructions
[20:46] <adrock359> awesome.  thank you soooo much man.
[20:46] <adrock359> you are a god!
[20:47] <sgrover> reese: ctrl-c
[20:48] <reese> thanks adrock359
[20:49] <adrock359> scorpking, did you get my pm?
[20:49] <adrock359> scorpking.  brb.  sorry dude.
[20:49] <ScorpKing> heh
[20:52] <Annirak> How do I determine which update is requiring a reboot before I reboot?
[20:53] <p_quarles> Annirak, the only updates which ever require a reboot are kernel patches/upgrades
[20:54] <Annirak> p_quarles: but how can I view which updates are requiring the restart?  There's a notifier, it must get the information from somewhere, how do I access that?
[20:55] <Nyad> !register makr_
[20:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about register makr_ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:55] <Nyad> !register mark_
[20:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about register mark_ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:55] <p_quarles> again, if Adept is telling you to restart, it's because the kernel was upgraded -- no other package will require a reboot
[20:56] <Annirak> p_quarles: libc will do it too.  As will grub.
[20:57] <genii> Nyad: insert a | before the username
[20:57] <Nyad> thanks
[20:57] <p_quarles> since when? why would a bootloader require you to reboot?
[20:57] <bas> test
[20:57] <Annirak> bas: test passed
[20:58] <Annirak> p_quarles: Not important.  The point is that I want to know what caused the restart requirement.
[20:58] <ScorpKing> on what date was 7.04 released?
[20:58] <ScorpKing> ah i'll check the website
[21:02] <genii> ScorpKing: April 19 2007
[21:02] <fdoving> Annirak: itworks like this, packages that require reboots makes a file, /var/run/reboot-required, the update-notifier just shows the message if that file exists. it is not really aware of which package creates the file. so during install the kernel packages makes the file, and update-notifier displays the message without knowing or caring which package made the file.
[21:03] <Annirak> fdoving: Is there a way to see a recently updated packages list?
[21:04] <fdoving> Annirak: not really, you can of course read the log, /var/log/dpkg.log
[21:06] <Annirak> fdoving: Thanks, I think I can do it from that.  At least partially
[21:12] <tony_> anyone know how to find where a package installed to from repos? it's grep dpkg or something, i forgot
[21:15] <fdoving> tony_: like from which repository?
[21:16] <fdoving> tony_: you can show where the packages are available, and where they likely are comming from, with 'apt-cache policy <packagename>'
[21:17] <ScorpKing> tony_: you looking for dpkg -c <package> ?
[21:23] <sigma_1234> how do you get a pc to install updates of individual deb files from the repos automatically?
[21:24] <fdoving> sigma_1234: if you want to select those packages yourself you will need to make it a cronjob on your own.
[21:26] <sigma_1234> i was thinking the same thing. so get a cronjob to grab the file from my main server and install it then? should i use wget to grab a file off a local apache server?
[21:27] <fdoving> that is possible.
[21:27] <fdoving> if you have a set of packages you can use rsync over ssh to sync a complete directory, for example.
[21:29] <fdoving> depends on how much data, and the speed of the network. if it's local 10mbit+ you are probably fine with apache and wget.
[21:48] <ddurham> does the default kde4 digital-clock have an option for a 12-hour display?
[21:51] <fdoving> ddurham: yes, but you need to configure it from systemsettings -> regional & language -> country/region & language -> time & dates [tab] -> time format.
[21:56] <SharkMa-san> hmh... does anyone know how to be able to read DVDs and CDs properly in hardy heron? Haven't been able to do so after updating to 2.6.24-14 kernel
[21:57] <hikejinx> !Hardy | SharkMa-san
[21:57] <ubotu> SharkMa-san: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[21:57] <xik> hi all
[21:57] <SharkMa-san> so I have to join another channel just to ask that, and I can't ask here? :P
[21:58] <SharkMa-san> lol
[21:58] <xik> I need a little coding help, it's a one liner: change every \n (line break) into a space and every single standing "-" into a newline character.
[22:00] <fdoving> xik: what language?
[22:00] <xik> fdoving: just to run over a text file, no formatting. sed could be used
[22:01] <matthew_> how can I install a .deb package directly?  (skype, in this case)
[22:01] <fdoving> xik: by single standing - you mean, single on that line, with space before and after or what?
[22:02] <xik> fdoving: exactly. so  blabla - blabla <--- exchange   and blabla-blabla <--- do not exchange
[22:02] <fdoving> matthew_: try rightclicking on it, see if that gives you any options. i always use the commandline to do that. the command is 'sudo dpkg -i package.deb'
[22:02] <fdoving> xik: so a space before and a space after.
[22:02] <xik> fdoving: yes
[22:03] <fdoving> xik: and \n should become a space.
[22:03] <xik> fdoving: exactly
[22:03] <matthew_> fdoving: the command line way is the only way packages are working for me at all.. that stupid gui package manager won't even give me updates..broken--out of the box.
[22:03] <xik> so, linebreak -> space    and " - " -> linebreak
[22:05] <fdoving> xik: try this: cat textfile.txt |tr '\n' ' '|sed s/' - '/'\n'/g
[22:05] <fdoving> xik: it shows usage of two tools, 'tr' and sed.
[22:06] <xik> thaks, i'll try.. don't this need an outputfile information?
[22:06] <xik> like eg.   ... > output.txt
[22:08] <xik> ah, thanks for your help. The output is not as expected, but I'll look into that myself, enough information. Thanks again! :)
[22:08] <fdoving> xik: yeah, currently it prints to screen. using > file.txt as you write is fine.
[22:08] <xik> yes

[22:30] <swatto> Is there a way to play the videos on the BBC website?
[22:31] <nosrednaekim> iplayer?
[22:32] <swatto> yep
[22:33] <nosrednaekim> swatto: yes, there is, but as I don't live in the UK, I didn't really pay attention to the website I saw it on
[22:35] <swatto> ok im just reading about it now, apparently i have to install a plugin for MPlayer or something like that??
[22:36] <nosrednaekim> yeah... I think i remeber something like that
[22:36] <BlackAura> Hey, Anyone know if anything has been done to fix the repository .deb files yet?
[22:37] <makdaknife> load anyone?
[22:42] <Xbehave> how do i get rm to take its imput from grep or a file?
[22:42] <Jucato> Xbehave: try looking into xargs. might want to ask in ##bash for help
[22:43] <LjL> Xbehave: "find" has a -delete option, might come in handy
[22:43] <Xbehave> ahh, i cant seam to get find to do what i want maybe ill RTM, thx for both ideas
[22:45] <ImLiz> hey everyone, kaffeine won't play avi files.. on an avi movie it freezes and on a music video this xine message pops up "a problem occur while loading a library or a decoder: wmvdmod.dll"
[22:46] <BlackAura> Xbehave: you can also execute a command in any find argument
[22:46] <BlackAura> Xbehave: although the params are a little weird, you can do something like this:
[22:48] <BlackAura> Xbehave: $ find -type d -exec chmod u+rwx {}\;
[22:48] <BlackAura> Xbehave: you basically type the command you want and then add    {}\;    for the filename
[22:48] <Xbehave> aww noes, i have to learn regex :p thx
[22:48] <chemist109> Xbehave: Try looking here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rm_(Unix)
[22:48] <chemist109> It says just use: xargs rm < filelist
[22:51] <Xbehave> thx, looks like im gunna have to learn regex tho, the file directories have horrible names

[22:56] <sourcemaker> is there a kicker available which looks likes apple's one?
[22:56] <ddurham> fdoving: I get a message about having to restart apps to make the change take effect, but how do I restart the digital clock applet?  I tried removing and readding
[22:59] <el-gokulo> sourcemaker, http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=5812
[22:59] <fdoving> ddurham: you need to restart plasma for that. on the commandline you can do 'qdbus org.kde.plasma /MainApplication quit' - it should restart it self.
[22:59] <Jucato> sourcemaker: "a" kicker? no. There's only one kicker, the one that comes from KDE. but OS X-like panels? there are quite a few of them: kooldock, ksmoothdock, kiba-dock, awn
[22:59] <fdoving> ddurham: if it doesn't restart itself you can use alt+f2 and run 'plasma' in that dialog.
[22:59] <Jucato> (the first two are KDE apps, the other 2 aren't)
[23:00] <nosrednaekim> fdoving: ah...nice to know about that qdbus.... was hoping they'd make something like that
[23:00] <ddurham> fdoving: it hasn't restarted after 10 seconds, should I run 'plasma' ?
[23:00] <fdoving> ddurham: yep.
[23:00] <Jucato> "kquitapp plasma" :D
[23:00] <ddurham> ok, it's back and the digital clock has changed
[23:00] <ddurham> thanks
[23:00] <sourcemaker> Jucato: ok
[23:00] <fdoving> Jucato: oh, that works too.
[23:00] <Jucato> :D
