[00:02] 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] any ideas whats wrong? === Fritzel` is now known as fritzel === fritzel is now known as Fritzel [00:05] kgx: ask in #linux :) [00:06] kgx: add a g after the last / [00:07] kgx: also, why not use something like this: sed -i inputfilename -e "s/oldstuff/newstuff/g" ...... should work [00:07] kgx: (-i edits in place) [00:08] Hello all. [00:08] hiya Foodcoman [00:08] dwidmann: managed to get it work [00:08] dwidmann: thanks [00:08] kgx: no problem [00:08] Apt question? The following packages have been kept back: Upgraded to hardy. === blackwaltz is now known as dwidmann_ [00:11] !upgrade [00:11] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [00:11] checking. Thanks. [00:12] Thanks, doesnt cover Hardy. =( [00:13] the instrucktions should be more or less the same for both i think [00:17] Just some dependency problems on the upgrade is all. I think I will remove them till things settle in a bit thanks. [00:19] Here is a good link: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62471/ [00:20] Sorry Correction: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62471/ [00:21] how to install another language in kubuntu [00:21] Oh man embarassing. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62472 [00:21] 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] Can't seem to find an option to set this as default in the Konqueror settings. [00:23] someone now any good software in this?? [00:25] Foodcoman: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades/Kubuntu [00:25] 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] ScorpKing: Thanks [00:26] hltpyldr: not sure. maybe try #kde [00:27] Foodcoman: np [00:28] _myrtille_: Yes, actually I have tried that. I am saving the profile as "File Management". Does not seem to work for me. [00:28] i wanna good tool..:D [00:28] like i u can look ip and so..:D then i want gadgets and anything..:D [00:29] babban: go look at www.kde-apps.org [00:29] thanks..:D [00:29] babban: www.kde-look.org might also be of interest [00:33] _myrtille_: any more ideas? [00:34] 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] hltpyldr: try Settings -> Configure Konqueror -> File Associations -> inode -> directory -> Embedding tab -> put Detailed List View at the top of the list [00:36] 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] hltpyldr: amusing how it looks like my directions above :) [00:38] Seems like a good solution.... working? [00:38] although I'm puzzled why saving the View Profile doesn't work in the first place [00:38] Jucato: I'm sorry, I must have missed your directions. ?? [00:39] Foodcoman: Thanks! Works great! [00:39] <_myrtille_> Jucato: I think this happens, because the webinterface is loaded as a default [00:39] depends on how he launches Konqueror or from where [00:39] Jucato: I see your instructions now. Thank you! I must have been reading Foodcoman's link at the time. [00:40] I'm launching it from an xml menu in Openbox. [00:40] hltpyldr: are you sure that in your XML menu, it's launching the korrect konqueror profile? [00:40] you saved the Detailed List view in the File Management profile, so your launcher should launch that profile [00:41] Jucato: let me look... be right back [00:42] 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: konqueror [00:43] 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] Jucato: So, I can't just launch "konqueror" is what you are saying. How do I launch it with a specific profile? [00:45] 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] "kfmclient openProfile filemanagement" [00:46] Jucato: ahh, ok. Thanks for the tip! Much appreciated. [00:47] Jucato: Hey, that works great! Thanks! [00:48] :D [00:50] 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] hltpyldr: /query [00:50] Jucato: ah ha! ok, thanks! [00:52] Jucato: so does the portion of that query for whatever I am searching for, such as (or something like that), or would I be typing something specific like a URL? [00:53] hltpyldr: I meant something like /query hltpyldr hello! how are you? [00:54] hltpyldr: /query here means "private message" (alternatively you can also use /msg) [00:54] hltpyldr: /msg hltpyldr [00:54] 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] Jucato: Foodcoman: Ok, makes sense now. Thanks! [00:54] Wow... loads of away messages. o.o; [00:54] 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] /query opens a new tab, regardless [00:55] Maki: away messages? [00:55] Yeah.. I joined and I get a load of away messages from people. o.O [00:56] weird... [00:56] I'm using Konqueror.. would rather use Pidgin, but 7.04 has Konqueror and not Pidgin. >_>; [00:56] Anyways.. ehm. [00:56] You mean Kopete? [00:56] Er... [00:56] Yeah [00:56] You can sudo apt-get install pidgin [00:56] Keep mixing those up. [00:56] Unless it's not available [00:56] it might be called "gaim" [00:57] (that was the old name before a quiet dispute between them and AOL resulted in the name change to pidgin) [00:57] I'm using Kopete.... would rather use Pidgin, but 7.04 has GAIM and not Pidgin. >_>; [00:57] (rewritten to make sense :P) [00:58] 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] dcc chat is an option also. Let me find the command. other end has to accept [00:58] ho wdo i uninstall kde4 ? [00:59] Glxgears runs 4191 frames in 5.1 seconds = 818.399 FPS, however. >_>; [00:59] scorpking: now i have download that i want but could not install them??

[01:02] I don't know what a pastebin is. [01:02] Or where to get it [01:02] Or how to use it. >_> [01:02] How do I *REMOVE* PPPoE? [01:02] don't you see the link above?

[01:08] Merf. I told my boss that he should've let me choose what PC to buy, but he wouldn't listen. >_< [01:09] Maki: there's a search box there [01:09] oh [01:10] in what program one could read the readme file?? [01:10] Kate [01:10] Hi [01:10] 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] hi robilivr [01:11] Jucato: No search results for Grantsdale or M985G [01:12] Maki: widen your search then? intel video card, or intel video driver, or intel 3d [01:12] hi babban :D [01:13] fuck this === LimCore is now known as spion__ === spion__ is now known as LimCore [01:21] Anyone have any experience with xev?

[01:54] if you're not using strigi, kill it, delete the ~/.strigi folder [01:54] (strigidaemon I think) [01:56] Jucato: and if I want to keep it? [01:56] um... that's the problem :/ [01:57] lol [01:57] all right [02:00] how do I disable the daemon? I assume it starts on user login, not in the RC folders? [02:01] cuz its not in .kde/Autostart [02:02] and something else that I just noticed... how do I set "view hidden folders" to be on by default in dolphin? [02:04] is there an ichat-compatible client in kubuntu? [02:04] my friend has ichat and i'm trying to view her webcam [02:04] but i'm not sure what client to use. [02:05] yea [02:05] mot_: kopete [02:05] its installed by default [02:05] kopete is ichat-compatible? [02:05] 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] . 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] ichat is apple's kopete [02:06] do i need a .mac account or what service should i add under kopete? [02:06] yes, i reliaze this. i'm saying what should *i* use under my kubuntu box to be able to view her webcam? [02:07] oh... so you meant your apple account for ichat [02:07] right [02:07] I don't actually know [02:07] check google? [02:11] hello sirs!

[02:30] calcmandan: I didn't... [02:30] ok, i'll paste it. [02:30] 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] . 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] okay I pasted it [02:31] darkwolf: give us the link [02:31] calcmandan: #1, you really should install a later release #2, did you use the previous install?

[02:38] darkwolf: ok. in your Screen section, remove the "1440x900" entry. and restart X and see if that works... [02:39] okay, will do... [02:39] darkwolf: remember that ctrl+alt+bksp will log you out and stop all application. so you might want to close your irc client first...
