[00:06] Why would the add/remove programs menu be grayed-out (disabled)? [00:21] Hi, I have a very odd problem. I'm running 8.04 beta on an HP Pavilion dv6000. I've installed a few libraries to get things like wireless support installed and working, as well as quite a few bits for games but for some reason my hard disk seems to periodically just flood itself. I'll get a message saying that the HD is less than 4% free, but I know there is a aroung 38gb free. I tracked the data down to a folder in [00:21] home->.strigi. Deleting it doesn't seem to adversely affect the system but after a while the messages start coming back and just now my entire hard disk was full for no apparent reason. [00:21] Support for Hardy in #ubuntu+1 [00:21] Does anyone know what's going on? [00:21] ahh, cheers === afiestas_b is now known as afiestas [00:50] #opensuse.ru [01:10] I need help with a new kubuntu 7.10 install. It installed fine, but the update crashed and left the system unbootable, after grub selects the kernel there is a "File not found" error, I rebooted into the install disk and mounted and chrooted into the install, but I have no idea what to do next === zakame_ is now known as zakame === boa_ is now known as boaconda === boaconda is now known as boa__ [01:35] .. [01:35] hello [01:35] hi, boa__ [01:36] what's up Odd¿ [01:36] boa__: not much... [01:36] you? [01:37] me too man [01:38] yow Odd you speak french¿ [01:39] boa__: no I don't. but you can go to #ubuntu-fr [01:39] !fr [01:39] Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. [01:39] ;P i know it's just a question [01:40] boa__: oh, ok. I was just trying to help out. :| [01:40] thanks man :) [01:41] how can i save cmds for easy reference in konsole? [01:41] sloth: what do you mean? [01:42] i type a cmd in konsole [01:42] is there a way to save if for future use? [01:42] save it [01:42] like a bookmark [01:43] yow Odd if i have a problem with the synaptic update ,can i update my gusty to the 8? [01:43] sloth: well it is saved in you bash history. so you can use the up arrow key to scroll through recently used cmds [01:43] sloth, make an script/bin directory and save your common commands to little scripts. if needed [01:43] or setup alias's in your .bashrc or other files. [01:43] boa__: synaptic? are you using kubuntu or ubuntu? [01:43] um, over my head? [01:43] kubuntu [01:43] sloth, then its time to read some bash begeinner guides [01:44] sloth: what command would you like to save? [01:44] link? [01:44] !bash [01:44] The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [01:44] !cli [01:44] thers also 10000's of bash guides out on the web. [01:44] sloth: Also, i reccomend www.linuxcommand.org [01:44] trying to save this: find / -type f -size +20000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $8 ": " $5 }' [01:45] sloth: ok. then open your ~/.bashrc file and we'll just put an alias for that. [01:45] echo ' find / -type f -size +20000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $8 ": " $5 }' ' > bigcommand :) then chmod +x bigcommand [01:45] is another way [01:46] .bashrc file? [01:46] boa__: shouldn't you be using adept instead of synaptic? [01:46] sloth: do "kate ~/.bashrc" [01:46] sloth, the .bashrc file gets ran at the start of every new shell. it has settings and aliass in it. YOu can set an alias for that command in there easially. [01:46] ah [01:46] OR you could make a little shellscript for that command. (which is what my example did) [01:47] shellscript? [01:47] yes a shell script.. Bash Basics.. [01:47] maybe i should read on it first [01:47] then bother you two [01:47] ^^ [01:48] my command made a file called 'bigcommand' - You can then chmod +x bigcommand, then run that command with ./bigcommand [01:48] Dr_willis: would you have to prepend that with #!/bin/bash ? or no? [01:48] sloth, yep. this is all rather straight forward [01:48] Odd-rationale, not really :) but its better practice [01:48] sloth, if you are going to have a lot of custom commands and scripts make a 'bin' dir and keep them in there [01:48] Thats common practice to keep them there. [01:48] I think an alias would be a better idea... [01:49] for one 1 loc [01:49] I perfer the bin/scripe method. because its easier for me to backup/move my bin dir to other machines/disrtos/users :) [01:49] on a seperate topic...why is that when i do a virus scan, a lot of the files show up as access denied (using klamav) [01:49] plus i have 200+ scripts in bin anyway [01:49] by the way odd how can i solve a problem with the repositories ,i have to save my source.list or add anothers repositories [01:49] sloth, because as a USER you cant acc4ess them., [01:50] oh [01:50] I create a .bash_aliases file which I can back up :) [01:50] sloth, klamv is scanning for WINDOWS viruses anyway :) most of the time. [01:50] and what does empty files mean? [01:50] empty files? [01:50] yea [01:50] boa__: what are you trying to do? [01:50] klamav says empty file [01:51] i guess it depends on what ifle it says is empty. :) [01:51] I rarely use klamv, no real need for it. [01:51] a LOT were empty [01:51] files with zero size i guess.. [01:51] /usr/share/java/xalan2.jar [01:51] for example [01:51] No idea why that would be a security issue. [01:52] what about zip.exceededfileslimit [01:52] !virus [01:52] A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [01:52] boa__: are you trying to add a repo? [01:52] update but i can't because it can't access to some repositories [01:52] !info clamav-docs [01:52] clamav-docs (source: clamav): documentation package for clamav, an anti-virus utility for Unix. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.91.2-3ubuntu2.3 (gutsy), package size 992 kB, installed size 1420 kB [01:53] boa__: you're trying to do "sudo apt-get update" but some repos are timing out? [01:53] install/read the docs for clamav i guess. :) [01:53] yes [01:53] thanks [01:53] unless you want to scan your windows system. You proberly dont need to worry about klamav [01:53] boa__: i guess the only thing you can do is try changing you mirror. [01:54] windows system? [01:54] just using gutsy here [01:54] link? [01:55] ok this is probably something simple but does anyone know why I would get this message when attempting to compile a plasmoid in KDE4? http://pastebin.com/d1595a17b (question already posed in #ubuntu+1) [01:56] boa__: open adept and go to adept --> manage repositories. then select a different mirror from the drop down menu [01:58] well i can't install adept odd because it can access to his url [02:03] sorry odd i want to say the manager propreties option is unvailable i cant access [02:04] I just tried to load the new york mets webpage, and after forcing it to stop re-loading, it finally crashed when I went to the Fans tab [02:05] would anyone like to help me resolve an issue w/ ssh tunneling? [02:09] does kubutnu.org have an rss feed for their announcements? I'm tired of looking every day to see if the new version came out [02:09] they do [02:09] nevermind, i'm an idiot and just found the link [02:09] thanks [02:16] anybody out there who can tell me where i can turn off these crappy tooltips? [02:16] sry 4 my bad english ;) [02:17] what tooltips === [1]Netham45 is now known as Netham45 [02:17] Dr_willis: I imagine he means the context popups when you hover on something [02:17] when my mouse cursor touches the "k" menu there is an animated tooltip [02:18] thats disabeable somewhere. :) i forget where.. [02:18] Dr_willis: same here but i installed kubuntu new a few minutes ago... [02:20] kissofavampire: System Settings...Appearance...Style... uncheck "Enable Tooltips" [02:21] this doesn't work 4 me...do i have to restart x system? [02:21] no [02:22] kissofavampire: After changing it there make sure to hit Apply button in bottom right corner [02:22] i've clicked the aply button... [02:22] +p [02:23] i also thought it was there but these tooltips are still present [02:23] kissofavampire: Should take effect immediately. If not then perhaps a restart of X is needed. I leave them on normally so do not know offhand [02:24] thx a lot i'll try to restart [02:32] como entro al kubundo en español? [02:32] !es | hakxis [02:32] hakxis: Aquí solamente hablamos inglés.

[02:34] omit "with konqueror" and the answer is "yes, yes we have" [02:34] Daisuke-Laptop: Heh smartass [02:35] gnash isn't going to cut it if you need to do anything that requires a version of flash released even remotely recently [02:35] genii: thank you :) [02:36] Thanks, Daisuke-Laptop, but 90% of what I use it for is covered by the mozilla-plugin-gnash package. So keep it to yourself [02:36] Specifically, the plugin doesn't even show up in the plugin dialog box after I scan for new plugins [02:37] EnsGabe: a bit bitter, are we? [02:38] Daisuke-Laptop: best example of projection all day [02:38] and mozilla-plugin-gnash probably won't help with konqueror [02:38] rather, the konq-plug-gnash plugin doesn't show up-- the mozilla-plugin-gnash plugin shows up and every page with flash elements SIGSEGV's [02:38] ah [02:38] i'm not bitter, i'm disappointed [02:39] Daisuke-Laptop: fair enough.

[02:58] <_ZeuZ_> genii, is it still avaible somewhere? [02:58] _ZeuZ_: First we need to discover if it is a modem which has vendor codes that would make trying to compile the full-speed driver worthwhile [02:59] * genii makes Jucato an extra-large Kubuntu mug of coffee [02:59] <_ZeuZ_> It does for me... [03:00] <_ZeuZ_> but, let me check... by the way, I need a link to a hardy package for scanmodem so I can dowload it from Windows, then mount the partition, copy the package and dependencies, and dpkg -i them [03:00] _ZeuZ_: Even when manually compiled, it doesn't work for all of them, especially a lot of the newer ones. And it was originaly specifically for the Conexant line [03:00] <_ZeuZ_> (hardy 64bits) [03:00] <_ZeuZ_> !repositories hardy [03:01] _ZeuZ_: I'll see if I can rediscover the web sites i worked from originally.

Because they actually supply a deb file [03:03] (you will be in luck if it is) [03:03] <_ZeuZ_> Just found that also, it's HP here, but perhaps it could work...

These interfaces are eth0 and eth1. eth1 is connected with the internet. As soon as I am changing the IP address of this eth0, it is always changing to [03:34] 169.254.3.224 as soon as I restart the machine. Why this is going so? How do I configure my interface cards? [03:34] linuxlover: Some questions to clarify: Is there a router or such that assigns IP to the computers there? What OS are both boxes running. If no switch/hub/router do you have a crossover cable? [03:35] 169.254.X.X is an ip which the computer auto assigns itself when no number is being given to it from outside [03:39] genil: I am connected with a crossover cable. The machine which is connected with two network cards in installed with Kubuntu and the other machine is installed with Windows [03:39] linuxlover: There is a simple howto here http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html but the user there is running commands like apt-get as root. Instead put sudo before what they have there. [03:41] linuxlover: Also where they have echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward put instead echo 1 > sudo tee -a /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward [03:42] And for gedit do alt-f2 then: kdesu kate [03:42] i am listening to you genil [03:44] linuxlover: The name is genii and not genil :) You will be fine if you do the commands listed there on the linux machine with two interfaces. The client machine operating system does not matter in this case. But of course alter the instructions there as I have just outlined above. [03:45] by which way can i enjoy current releases of packages (e.g. pidgin 2.4.1 instead of 2.2.1) in ubuntu? [03:47] I am very sorry genii....... it is my eyes which made the problem.... anyway it is my mistake, i am really sorry, please don't mind friend [03:48] oi. love how he sticks around for an answer. [03:48] linuxlover: No worries :) [03:49] Daisuke_Ido: Especially as I actually went to trouble of answering him in #ubuntu [03:49] that guy... *makes a strangling motion* [03:49] eg: yao_ziyuan: To make ubuntu use the lates deb versions available in it's repositories, create a file called apt.conf in directory /etc/apt and have it contain the line of: APT::Default-Release "experimental"; For more recent versions see if getdeb website contains them, or else compile from source. [03:49] Thank you genii [03:49] strangling users is not good policy [03:51] Boohbah: Well, it would be therapeutic for us however ;) [03:51] It would also solve the problem of helping users :) [03:51] This is going to sound a bit strange, but how can I mount a PSX disk?

[03:53] The drive churns, then stops, and KDE does nothing [03:53] sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom tells me to specify a filesystem, however [03:55] And I've got no idea what it could be [03:55] Hi.

All I can think of is PERL5LIB, because I work with perl all day long. but there's a another one you can set that's something like LD5LIBPATH or similar [04:03] Made that command into its own little executable, just to avoid all that typing in future :P [04:03] dthacker, LD_LIBRARY_PATH [04:03] ??

[05:58] okay.....so I've got Gutsy AMD64 working great on my system.....except unfortunately my sound card isn't working properly. It's an Audigy, and is detected, and shows up find in aplay -l. I've already checked the Switches tab in KMix and the Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack setting is off [05:59] which is apparently the common problem....at least from what I've been reading [05:59] what system do you have, or is it a custom? [05:59] had the same issue with my dell inspiron [05:59] custom build.....ASUS-A8N Sli mobo, onboard sound turned off. [06:00] nice setup. umm [06:00] what's the sound card make/model? [06:00] cat /proc/asound/cards is showing two though oddly enough....the Audigy as card 0, and a UART MPU-401 as the second card, which I'm guessing is a MIDI controller? [06:00] Audigy 1 [SB0090] (rev.3, serial:0x531102) [06:01] or perhaps the onboard [06:01] It's an OEM Creative Soundblaster Audigy....which I know I've gotten working in the past in LFS and Gentoo [06:01] I belive I just used the emu10k ALSA drivers [06:02] if I open up VLC, and view the preferences, and check the output devices....the Audigy is listed after I refresh the devices [06:04] oh, apparenlty the onboard sound is another Realtek AC '97 chipset, the usual onboard one from what I've seen :s === NetersLandreau_ is now known as NetersLandreau [06:11] brb === delphine is now known as steph_30 === Seawolf` is now known as [Seawolf] [06:26] Okay.....so the audigy is detected, but still can't get sound out of it :s [06:27] :s ignore that last remark, seems to be okay now [06:32] Fresh install of 7.10 gutsy yesterday. Sound was working fine. I just tried to play some music and it 'plays' but nothing is coming out of the speakers. Yes, they're plugged into the computer. I see no indication that there are sound issues. [06:33] Is there any other program open that could be tying up the sound? [06:33] i can't think of anything. [06:33] kill arts [06:34] SlicerDicer: killed arts, still nothing. [06:35] usb sound device defaulting to somehow? [06:35] program like skype eating sound device? [06:35] worst case restart X [06:35] SlicerDicer: i don't have skype installed... yet. [06:35] should clear it up [06:35] should... [06:35] okay, once i'mdone copying this dvd, i'll restart x. [06:35] thanks. [06:35] i'll be back if it doesn't work. [06:37] would it help if i pastebin'd my system log? [06:37] did it not work? [06:37] what kinda sound device you got? [06:37] still burning the dvd. [06:37] ahh [06:38] i'm going to let it finish. [06:38] dual layers are still expensive. :) [06:38] i have an onboard via chipset. [06:38] plugged my speakers into that [06:38] ahh ok [06:40] hmm. i was playing metal blob solid earlier. there was sound then, === mako_ is now known as m85 [06:41] . [06:41] lol [06:41] nice .
