| beener | genii you know how i get my partition mounted im getting this error hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000 | 00:01 |
| genii | beener: Sorry, I have not enough time to help you right now | 00:01 |
| beener | alright thanks anyways | 00:03 |
| dwidmann | the hardy installer has one change that is horrible :( | 00:03 |
| beener | is there a simple way of geting through this | 00:04 |
| genii | beener: May help: http://languor.us/hal-storage-fixed-mount-refused-uid-1000 | 00:07 |
| lovre | back. tried xfce. First impression: tooo few options... Not much i could change about look and feel... Im looking for something "different".. any idea? | 00:09 |
| nosrednaekim | enlightenment? | 00:10 |
| genii | lovre: PErhaps fluxbox | 00:10 |
| Jucato | what kind of "different" are you looking for? | 00:10 |
| beener | dont go for flux | 00:10 |
| lovre | beener: why not? | 00:10 |
| Jucato | let him. it's his choice whether to try or not :) | 00:11 |
| lovre | Jucato: i need something efficient, yet a little different. And maybe somewhat lighter.. | 00:12 |
| beener | well i have it running on a crap desktop and it just doesnt work so great | 00:12 |
| lovre | dunno, maybe im just spoiled :S | 00:12 |
| beener | the menu useing the left click never updates yo9u have to mount manualy | 00:12 |
| lovre | :( | 00:12 |
| Jucato | Efficient? Different? Light? KDE with a completely different theme and less stuff installed :) | 00:13 |
| lovre | beener: do you have another idea? | 00:13 |
| lovre | Jucato: yea, i suppose you are right :)) | 00:14 |
| lovre | brb, trying out the fluxbox.. Be back in a min | 00:14 |
| Jucato | I don't get the need for something "light" unless you're running on a P1 with 64 MB RAM :) | 00:14 |
| sparr_ | lovre: there are MANY window managers, and a major consideration is how much work youre willing to do to make it work the way you want | 00:14 |
| Jucato | (someone has run Kubuntu on a P2 with less than 512B) | 00:14 |
| Jucato | MB* | 00:14 |
| sparr_ | danbm nussed gun | 00:14 |
| genii | Jucato: I'm running it on a p2 400 with 3.2Gb hd and 128Mb of ram | 00:15 |
| Jucato | genii: 128MB is less than 512MB right? :P | 00:15 |
| genii | Jucato: Considerably less, yes :) | 00:16 |
| user1 | using linux,i have some friends sharing my internet. i have 30k vacant and 3 friends. is there a way that i define the combine band limit for 3 users combined as 30 k . not 10k for each. that way if 2 are online they can share 15k each. and if all 3 are online. they will be spreaded 10k each in managed behaviour. any way.i have a dlink switch. and in futer i may take a fourth one and give him a dedicated 20k limit alone. so i need control? | 00:17 |
| user1 | by wondershaper or ebox. or any other, what i have in mind is 30k for 3 users. if all are online 10k is given to each. if 2 are online 15k to each. 1 then 30k to him. and other 4th user gets 20k seperat dedi bandwidth.. how can i do it? | 00:17 |
| lovre | back | 00:19 |
| lovre | can i startx in more than one virtual terminal? | 00:20 |
| genii | lovre: Yes | 00:20 |
| lovre | genii: how, i get an error | 00:20 |
| genii | lovre: You need to specify :1 since :0 is in use | 00:20 |
| lovre | genii: startx 1 ? | 00:21 |
| genii | lovre: Don't omit the colon. eg: startx :1 | 00:21 |
| lovre | genii: ill try, thank you | 00:21 |
| beener | ... i screwed something up | 00:21 |
| beener | i cant get into any programs that arnt already up | 00:22 |
| lovre | genii: it says: server is allready for display 0. i did "starx :1", with a space.. | 00:23 |
| beener | i tried to setup the drive to be mounted in the home folder and now i cant open anything | 00:23 |
| beener | not even the terminal | 00:23 |
| beener | what should i do | 00:23 |
| genii | lovre: Give me a minute or two, I'm swamped in other channels here | 00:23 |
| beener | sayin its bee mal formatid | 00:24 |
| lovre | genii: its ok, i figured it out. it was: "startx -- :1" | 00:24 |
| genii | lovre: startx -- :1 Yes :) I forgot the -- | 00:26 |
| genii | beener: It says what? | 00:26 |
| lovre | genii: it runs xfce. Can i specify to run some other wm, like kde? | 00:26 |
| beener | say the other partion is mal formated | 00:27 |
| lovre | genii: and when i switch back to this vt, the other one crashes | 00:27 |
| _ZeuZ_ | !reduce memory usage | 00:28 |
| _ZeuZ_ | @reduce memory usage | 00:29 |
| beener | what should i do? | 00:29 |
| genii | lovre: You can put any options there you could put into an .Xsession or .xinitrc file, yes. so startx -- :1 & startkde & or so | 00:30 |
| Jucato | startkde should bring up X | 00:31 |
| Jucato | er no.. sorry | 00:31 |
| Jucato | wrong one :P | 00:31 |
| beener | nothing else will open up | 00:31 |
| genii | beener: Frankly, that doesn't look hopeful to recover from. It looks like you may have just done something to your / partition | 00:32 |
| beener | but i set it to the /home which is on a totaly difrent partition | 00:32 |
| beener | well im going to boot up a live cd and delet the partition. maybe that will fix it | 00:33 |
| genii | beener: What were the EXACT steps you took that caused this to happen? In order | 00:33 |
| genii | <sigh> | 00:33 |
| beener | system settings | 00:33 |
| beener | then the disk and file system | 00:33 |
| beener | then went into the admin mode and set the new partition to auto enable then set it to mount to /home/beener/beener drive 2 | 00:34 |
| beener | then it screwed up | 00:34 |
| genii | The GUI diskmounter occasionally has some hiccup and inserts arbitrary code into fstab. If possible let us see whats in that file, put it onto the pastebin website and give the url here | 00:35 |
| genii | beener:The GUI diskmounter occasionally has some hiccup and inserts arbitrary code into fstab. If possible let us see whats in that file, put it onto the pastebin website and give the url here | 00:35 |
| beener | ill try to find it out | 00:36 |
| genii | beener: The file /etc/fstab contents | 00:36 |
| beener | maybe i can use firefox | 00:37 |
| beener | sence it still open | 00:37 |
| beener | http://pastebin.com/mb9e531e | 00:38 |
| genii | Reading | 00:38 |
| beener | thanks | 00:38 |
| genii | beener: You mounted whatever to your home directory of /home/beener So: sudo umount /home beener and then remove that line from in the /etc/fstab by: alt-f2 kdesu kate /etc/fstab | 00:41 |
| beener | how i cant get into thte terminal | 00:41 |
| beener | this is a reach can firefox dothis? | 00:41 |
| genii | beener: ctrl-alt-f1 then do the commandline stuff. eg: sudo umount /home/beener then back to X by: alt-f7 | 00:42 |
| genii | You'll need to login there, use your normal login/pass | 00:43 |
| beener | thanks | 00:43 |
| * genii sips his beer and waits for the next small emergency | 00:44 | |
| beener | is it alt f7 or ctrl alt f7 | 00:44 |
| genii | beener: Either will work but you only need alt-f7 from commandline to gui, from gui to commandline you require the ctrl with the alt-f1 | 00:44 |
| beener | thanks | 00:45 |
| beener | brb | 00:45 |
| harmental | hey guys..how can i make self-contained presentations with OOo? | 00:45 |
| Jucato | !openoffice | 00:46 |
| ubotu | a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components. To install: "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org". User help available in #users.openoffice.org | 00:46 |
| genii | harmental: Use the Impress ("Powerpoint") part? | 00:47 |
| * genii hands Jucato a coffee | 00:47 | |
| beener | and genii sudo umount /home beener | 00:48 |
| beener | should that have a / | 00:48 |
| genii | beener: sudo umount /home/beener yes. DON'T un-mount /home !! | 00:49 |
| harmental | genii: there is no such option as far as i know... | 00:50 |
| harmental | (at least not in OOo) | 00:50 |
| beener | beener is the one that has been there from the begining the other place i mounted was beener drive 2 < it shouldnt be this one (just wanting to not mess up things) | 00:50 |
| corporeal | steve ballmer scares me. | 00:51 |
| genii | harmental: I suggest getting into internals of Impress with the folks in #users.openoffice.org as suggested by Jucato | 00:51 |
| harmental | genii and Jucato: no response there.... | 00:52 |
| genii | beener: Any users home directory is like: /home/theirname and not just /home you mounted something to the "root" of your home directory (/home/beener) which is why things stopped working. You didn't mount it to /home/beener/some-subdir-name as you perhaps intended | 00:53 |
| beener | ic ok | 00:53 |
| beener | ill go through with it then | 00:53 |
| beener | er says its busy | 00:58 |
| genii | beener: then use: sudo umount -f /home/beener | 00:59 |
| beener | ok thanks | 01:00 |
| beener | still no go | 01:00 |
| beener | say device or resource busy | 01:00 |
| genii | beener: Then do the other step of alt-f2 kdesu kate /etc/fstab and remove that /home/beener line. Save the file. Then reboot (softly if possible) | 01:01 |
| beener | without gui or no? | 01:02 |
| genii | beener: With | 01:02 |
| godkas | anyone know where mplayer seeks its plugin directory? | 01:03 |
| beener | cant opent he kate programe | 01:04 |
| beener | vi should work right? | 01:04 |
| beener | in without gui | 01:04 |
| Daisuke_Ido | since vi is the work of satan, i have to recommend nano for a simple edit such as that | 01:05 |
| genii | beener: OK, if you have a konsole open or so, use: sudo nano /etc/fstab or vi or the commandline editor of your choice with admin privelege (sudo) If no Konsole do the ctrl-alt-f1 and from there | 01:05 |
| godkas | :p i almost always use kwrite lol | 01:06 |

| Alucard_Hellsing | i could share it with my win but my internet dialer went down on that machine so it si no good | 01:12 |
| beener | alright finaly got it to be able to save | 01:14 |

| beener_ | thank you genii | 01:19 |
| beener_ | alright ... now to try to mount again... | 01:19 |
| genii | beener_: Now you know why not to use /home/yourname as a mount point ;) | 01:19 |
| beener_ | lol thank you | 01:20 |
| beener_ | so we would be the best place to mount to? | 01:20 |
| genii | beener_: Tradition is make a dir under /media or /mnt and then use that | 01:20 |
| genii | beener_: /media is likely good since you can brose it from file browser normally | 01:21 |
| beener_ | so like put /media/beener2 | 01:21 |
| genii | beener_: Yes | 01:21 |
| beener_ | thanks | 01:21 |
| genii | I need to take a small trip to pick up a paycheque. So will be unresponsive and /away for maybe 15 minutes | 01:22 |

| _ZeuZ_ | what-s vbesave ? | 01:24 |

| ubotu | To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository.

| beener_ | thanks genii all fixed | 01:29 |
| jhutchins | Super_BQ: Not worth the effort. | 01:29 |

| will01 | hey does anyone think i would have problems installing kubuntu on a 4 gig cf card? | 01:44 |
| FFForever | can i convert a kubuntu install into a server install (remove kde and all of that stuff) | 01:45 |
| epimeth | FFForever: sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop | 01:48 |
| epimeth | :-) | 01:48 |
| * nonewmsgs has discovered the hard way that hardy really _is_ a beta | 01:49 | |
| genii | FFForever: Log out of KDE. Then ctrl-alt-f1 then: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop then:sudo apt-get install tasksel then: sudo apt-get remove --purge kubuntu-desktop then: sudo tasksel from there select LAMP install | 01:49 |
| genii | epimeth: Thats one of gthe steps, yes :) | 01:49 |
| FFForever | genii no monitor :) | 01:50 |
| genii | FFForever: You're in by vnc or so? | 01:50 |
| FFForever | ssh :) | 01:50 |
| _ZeuZ_ | how can I remove a no-longer-used kernel? | 01:51 |
| FFForever | its good to keep 1 spare kernel..... | 01:51 |
| _ZeuZ_ | along, of course, of his headers, modules, and all that parafernalie... | 01:52 |
| epimeth | genii: way to show me up | 01:52 |
| genii | FFForever: then: sudo apt-get install tasksel then: sudo tasksel from there select LAMP install after it finishes the stopping kdm/removal of kubuntu-desktop | 01:52 |
| _ZeuZ_ | FFForever, yes, but I've got like, 5? not counting the ones from Debian... | 01:52 |
| genii | epimeth: I was typing all that before you replied, nothing personal | 01:52 |
| will01 | does anyone see a problem with installing kubuntu to a 4 gig cf card/ | 01:52 |
| genii | will01: Not if your computer supports boot from there | 01:53 |
| epimeth | genii: I know :-) | 01:53 |
| FFForever | genii, know why i can mount a cifs dir, but i cannot browse it via samba even if i unmount it | 01:53 |
| genii | FFForever: Not offhand | 01:53 |
| jontec | I'm trying to mount a drive with sudo, but I want to be able to view the volume without having to be root... what options do I need for my mount command? | 01:53 |
| FFForever | :( | 01:53 |
| FFForever | could it be because it is the second network card on the system? | 01:54 |
| genii | jontec: something like -o user or -o users | 01:54 |
| nonewmsgs | jontec a normal mount should work? if not adjust the fsck file | 01:55 |
| nonewmsgs | and if you need any help im here | 01:55 |
| robf | when ya change window effects settings and it bunges everything up, how exactly can I fix this? | 01:55 |
| robf | it says "in 10 seconds we'll >>>" do something but then after bout 10 seconds it doesn't revert so not sure wth its doing = I have to clear my users .kde4/ directory to remove the settings I changed | 01:56 |
| jontec | genii, nonewmsgs: I tried the users option before, but it says that I "do not have enough permissions to read" it... I just tried it again, but to no avail | 01:56 |
| jontec | (after unmounting) | 01:56 |
| nonewmsgs | sudo kate /etc/fsck | 01:57 |
| genii | jontec: eg: sudo mount -o users /dev/whatever /mountpoint and /mountpoint must be somewhere the user has access, like /media/somename or /home/theirname/subdirectory | 01:58 |
| nonewmsgs | fstab i mean | 01:58 |
| nonewmsgs | edit your fstab so the last line looks like this: | 01:59 |
| smeg0l | any one from denmark in here ? | 01:59 |
| nonewmsgs | /dev/hdb1 /home/william/newdrive1 ext3 rw,defaults,uid=1000 0 0 | 01:59 |
| nonewmsgs | adjusting ext3 with whatever and the mountpoint ;) | 01:59 |
| nonewmsgs | and the drive | 02:00 |
| genii | nonewmsgs: You're making several unbased assumptions | 02:00 |
| robf | is there a way to make kongueror NOT gimme that annoying start up screen and just start in say, google or about:blank | 02:01 |
| genii | nonewmsgs: eg: it's ext3, he's using user of uid 1000, he needs write access | 02:01 |
| jontec | genii: that's exactly what I tried :( and /mountpoint is owned by the user, not root | 02:01 |
| jontec | nonewmsgs: changing the fstab does what? | 02:02 |
| robf | jontec: makes it mount there? | 02:02 |
| robf | heh | 02:02 |
| jontec | nonewmsgs: are those the defaults for a mount, or do these get mounted at startup | 02:02 |
| jontec | robf: yeah, I can read it as root | 02:02 |
| robf | they mount at startup if automount is set true | 02:02 |
| robf | if not than they're just the directories mount point for mount /mount/point | 02:03 |
| robf | jontec: and permissions that are being read? | 02:03 |
| genii | jontec: The fstab holds sort of hints about how to mount some devices. They can have an fstab entry be not be automounted at boot for instance but just specify filesystem or so on | 02:03 |
| robf | jontec: if you have files on ext3, and they're owned by a uid / group outside your current user (except root) then simply you have no perms | 02:03 |
| jontec | robf: I'll specify, this is ntfs, so my windows drive... | 02:04 |
| robf | have root simply do a chgrp and recursively apply a group setting to the who drive, add user to group, solved | 02:04 |
| robf | oh | 02:04 |
| robf | ntfs is bad news ;p | 02:04 |
| genii | jontec: What robf suggests is likely the case here, that the mounted contents are not owned/accessible to the username normally anyhow | 02:05 |
| robf | it has weird permisions, half time ignored, half time obliged... makes for wonky workings | 02:05 |
| robf | jontec: example of my previous mention, I , robf as a user, once came across a cd of mine, owner of files, robf... | 02:05 |
| robf | jontec: however this robf was uid different than mine ;p cos was from another system ...doh | 02:05 |
| robf | so couldn't do anything with em , was really annoying | 02:06 |
| jontec | this is a reinstall of kubuntu, and I've never had problems with it before :( But on the reinstall System Settings has been weird, so I'm just doing it from the commandline because I don't feel like trying to get it to work | 02:06 |
| robf | root copied them over set me as owner and was good to go | 02:06 |
| robf | jontec: reinstall + wipe? or reinstall with existing files still in place... not sure if kubuntu supports such or not, not really up on the distro specifics | 02:06 |
| jontec | robf: okay, so how do I get the files set for my uid or any for that matter | 02:06 |
| robf | jontec: well, chown and chgrp =) | 02:07 |
| jontec | robf: I wiped my linux partition and reinstalled | 02:07 |
| robf | wait this is for ntfs though ya? | 02:07 |
| jontec | robf: yeah, I'm on kubuntu, trying to mount my windows drive which is ntfs | 02:07 |
| robf | ntfs permissions are a strange lil kitten | 02:07 |
| genii | ouch, chmod/chown on ntfs is .... messy... to say the least | 02:07 |
| robf | not even sure how nix handles them, if at all | 02:07 |
| robf | yeah don't ch anything | 02:08 |
| robf | genii: mess? nah, work? also no | 02:08 |
| robf | may do strange tings.. | 02:08 |
| robf | never tried tbh | 02:08 |
| robf | lemme mount up a ntfs partition realy quick if I got one hold a moment | 02:08 |
| genii | jontec: Whats the mount line yer currently trying? | 02:08 |
| robf | drwxrwx--- 1 root plugdev 0 2008-04-12 23:28 Blue Oyster Cult | 02:09 |
| robf | look at owner of who mounted drive | 02:09 |
| robf | genii: I simply mount as root | 02:09 |
| robf | mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/point | 02:10 |
| robf | its usually smart enough | 02:10 |
| robf | now jontec which user is responsible for mounting? | 02:10 |
| robf | or better yet | 02:10 |
| robf | try this | 02:10 |
| genii | jontec: If I have dev and mountpoint I'll give an fstab line | 02:10 |
| robf | make your user member of plugdev ;p | 02:10 |
| robf | group | 02:10 |
| jontec | genii: I'm just using mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /home/jontec/windows | 02:10 |
| genii | robf: That sometimes works also | 02:10 |
| jontec | give or take a couple of options | 02:10 |
| jontec | genii: err... with sudo | 02:10 |
| robf | jontec: problem is this | 02:11 |
| genii | jontec: OK, so: /dev/hda1 /home/jontec/windows ntfs ro,dmask=0222,fmask=0333 0 0 | 02:11 |
| robf | jontec: it's mounted as root owner, plugdev group | 02:11 |
| robf | jontec: type this as user "groups" | 02:11 |
| robf | do you see plugdev? | 02:11 |
| genii | jontec: Add to /etc/fstab (with admin privelege) then: mount ~/windows | 02:12 |
| genii | Interesting. hda and not sda | 02:12 |
| robf | genii: still seems he'll have permission issues if he is not member of the group, this needs to be ensured.... | 02:13 |
| robf | or maybe I'm confused as to his problem, | 02:13 |
| jontec | excellent, guys, that worked | 02:13 |
| robf | what was his problem :p now I'm confused =) | 02:13 |
| genii | robf: The dmask and fmask cover the user group stuff | 02:13 |
| robf | ah ok | 02:14 |
| robf | didn't see that | 02:14 |
| robf | was on diff line ;p | 02:14 |
| robf | by default seems it mounts as plugdev, which my default user has a member of this group anyhow | 02:14 |
| robf | so I have no permission problems it seems | 02:14 |
| jontec | genii: what exactly did that line do in fstab? | 02:16 |
| robf | so with konqureor (usually I just use FF :p ) but I wish for it to not start with stupid "into" page, just go into google | 02:16 |
| robf | even though i set this as home page it loads that annoying intro crap =\ | 02:16 |
| robf | jontec: set the masks for readabiltiy/execut | 02:16 |
| robf | jontec: man umask | 02:17 |
| robf | same idea | 02:17 |
| robf | only for file / directory | 02:17 |
| genii | jontec: It mounts readonly with the directory mask and file mask write settings such that regular users can write to it | 02:17 |
| genii | read/write to it | 02:17 |
| robf | er man mount heh not umask >< | 02:18 |
| jontec | robf, genii: okay, gracias, this should actually be better than I had it setup on my last installtion... my primary user had access, so I had to use kdesu to view the files as another user | 02:18 |
| robf | heh | 02:19 |
| jontec | installation* | 02:19 |
| robf | jontec: also, by default, if you just make a user to be in group plugdev ntfs mounts ought be ok from the begining | 02:19 |
| robf | I think also this gives them ability to mount such devices | 02:19 |
| prince_jammys | i'm not seeing how those mask settings would allow writing | 02:19 |
| jontec | robf: :( my user does belong to the plugdev group... | 02:20 |
| robf | jontec: ah | 02:20 |
| robf | no idea why it would work normally does for me =p | 02:20 |
| robf | but you should be ok now | 02:20 |
| robf | genii has you right | 02:20 |
| jontec | alright, thanks again | 02:20 |
| genii | jontec: You running older Kubuntu? hda1 seems to me from before 7.04 | 02:21 |
| jontec | genii: I'm using 7.04, actually | 02:21 |
| prince_jammys | do you intend to be able to write to the partition? | 02:21 |
| genii | jontec: Ah, OK. I think then the change would be from that to 7.10, they are all now sdX and not hdX | 02:21 |

| nosrednaekim | genii: even here on hardy, I still get hda's | 02:23 |
| genii | nosrednaekim: Interesting. I imagine for base device of CD/DVD | 02:23 |
| robf | eh hda = pata sda = sata | 02:23 |
| nosrednaekim | genii: nope, its my hard drive | 02:24 |
| robf | ide vs sata ;p | 02:24 |
| robf | i have one hda and sdb/sda | 02:24 |

| robf | two serial ata and one IDE paralelle ata | 02:24 |
| robf | though parallel is better way to spell | 02:24 |
| genii | My sata is currently in compatability mode so conceivably should be hdX but it's sdX | 02:24 |

| sparr_ | why would my shell be interpreting (which is to say, sending to perl) the single quote (') character as \xE2 instead of \x27 ? | 02:36 |
| genii | sparr_: They may know intricate details of that in ##bash | 02:37 |
| sparr_ | genii: but it could be a konsole problem | 02:39 |
| genii | sparr_: Does it behave differently from a console you get from ctrl-alt-f1 ? | 02:40 |
| sparr_ | genii: yes | 02:41 |
| sparr_ | thanks for asking | 02:41 |
| sparr_ | now i think its certainly a konsole problem :) | 02:41 |

| bruce__ | hello | 03:26 |
| bittin | hi bruce__ | 03:26 |
| bruce__ | I am new to linux and have a question | 03:27 |
| bittin | !ask | 03:27 |
| bittin | ask it then =) | 03:27 |
| ubotu | Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 03:27 |
| xim | speaking of... in kde4, how does one turn off ALL SOUND NOTIFICATIONS in one go? | 03:28 |
| bruce__ | sometimes programs jam. Is there a way to close them down without logging out of linux first | 03:28 |
| xim | i loved that option in kde3.5x | 03:28 |
| Odd-rationale | bruce__: you can open ksystemguard and kill the process there. | 03:29 |
| bittin | and to open that u press ctrl + escape | 03:29 |
| bruce__ | thanks | 03:29 |
| Odd-rationale | bruce__: or you can do it a terminal like: killall konqueror | 03:29 |
| genii | bruce__: You can also forcibly kill them usually by: ctrl-alt-esc then put the big X on the offending/lockedup app | 03:30 |
| Odd-rationale | yeah but be careful you don't click the desktop by accident... | 03:30 |
| genii | Odd-rationale: Heh, yes. I've done this | 03:30 |
| bruce__ | if you do can you reboot and get your desktop back? | 03:31 |
| xim | yes | 03:31 |
| Odd-rationale | bruce__: alt+f2 and type in "kdesktop" should work | 03:31 |
| xim | or hit ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X | 03:31 |

| === aib_ is now known as aib | ||
| bruce__ | thanks I will try it. | 03:35 |
| xim | but seriously, the only way i've found in kde4 to turn off all sound notifications is by turning off sound for notifications (which means they're still loading and also that I can't just allow 1 sound only etc). before kde4, i could always just hit 'disable all sounds' then enable the couple i actually need. I've seen this problem mentioned all over in lame reviews like http://eikke.com/kde4-reviewed/ w/o any solution so that's why i'm | 03:36 |
| xim | asking here. Anyone a brave kde4 soul? | 03:36 |

| xim | per curiousity, if you had to guess where / how would you look for the settings file for these prefs? I'm assuming it's a plain text file somewhere | 03:46 |

| pramod | I want to enable write permission on Kubuntu... can anyone please help me? | 03:56 |
| pramod | :D | 03:56 |
| genii | pramod: What is it you are requiring writing access to? | 03:56 |
| pramod | I got Windows as welll | 03:57 |
| Super_BQ | ugh. still battling with Samba | 03:57 |
| genii | Super_BQ: Kaj? | 03:57 |
| pramod | so i want to copy a file from the Kubuntu local partition to the Windows partition... | 03:57 |
| Super_BQ | genii: sorry? | 03:58 |
| Super_BQ | genii: for some reason my Windows box won't login into my Samba Kubuntu box | 03:58 |
| genii | Super_BQ: Another user with that name and Samba struggles earlier on | 03:58 |
| Super_BQ | perhaps that was me :) | 03:58 |
| genii | And exact same issue it seems | 03:58 |
| genii | pramod: What is the partition name of the ntfs (or fat/vfat) ? | 03:59 |
| Super_BQ | I had it going by changing the smb.conf file line from user to share | 03:59 |
| xim | Super_BQ:Does your password/username have weird characters in it? ie !@#$%^&*(>? | 03:59 |
| Super_BQ | it's a password/dbase issue it hink | 03:59 |
| xim | right | 03:59 |
| Super_BQ | xim: yes if you say an underscore is unusual | 03:59 |
| pramod | it is ntfs itself... | 03:59 |
| xim | yeah | 03:59 |
| pramod | well it is an ntfs partition itself... | 03:59 |
| Super_BQ | but it use to work before I did the upgrade | 04:00 |
| xim | sadly, i found no workaround other than changing my pass | 04:00 |
| genii | pramod: eg: is it called /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdx9 etc etc | 04:00 |
| pramod | no fat file system... | 04:00 |
| xim | it also had a similar character | 04:00 |
| pramod | ah wait | 04:00 |
| Super_BQ | i'll try a different pass | 04:00 |
| pramod | media/hdb1/ | 04:00 |
| xim | it's worth a go, though i still don't understand why that isn't fixed. I had a ' and an _ in my password. Removing that allowed login, YMMV. | 04:01 |
| Super_BQ | hah and when I try on my windows box to click on the shared shortcut, it rejects new password | 04:02 |
| Super_BQ | I think that's because I have to ALSO change the Ubuntu user password to the same as the smbpasswd one? | 04:03 |
| genii | pramod: OK. First in Konsole: umount /media/hdb1 then in Kubuntu: alt-f2 then: kdesu kate /etc/fstab then add the line: /dev/hdb1 /media/hdb1 ntfs ro,dmask=0222,fmask=0333 0 0 if another line there contains anywhere in it hdb1 put a # at the start of that line. Save the file. Then again in Konsole: sudo mount /media/hdb1 | 04:03 |
| genii | pramod: You may need sudo umount /media/hdb1 in that first command | 04:04 |
| pramod | ok i try it... | 04:04 |
| genii | Super_BQ: I need to leave soon, just want to see finish pramod's situation. Otherwise I would try to help more. | 04:06 |
| genii | pramod: Let me know the result, success or not | 04:07 |
| Super_BQ | would be easier if someone could just login my box and fix | 04:07 |
| pramod | well thanks | 04:08 |
| pramod | it copies the program.... | 04:08 |
| pramod | i mean it copies the file.... | 04:09 |
| genii | pramod: Good :) | 04:09 |
| genii | /parting is such sweet sorrow :) | 04:09 |
| pramod | but i also get a message: | 04:09 |
| pramod | "Could not change permissions for | 04:09 |
| pramod | /media/hdb1/Win Documents/My Music/Hindi/MP3/3wh2(www.songs.pk).mp3" | 04:09 |
| xim | pramod:http://linux.die.net/man/8/mount.ntfs-3g | 04:10 |
| xim | i might be way off, but that's what I've used in the past to mount ntfs | 04:11 |
| xim | in any case, if you have permissions problems, try starting your file manager w/ root permissions and giving your username (ie pramod) write access? | 04:12 |
| xim | kdesu konqueror /media/hdb1/Win Documents/My Music/Hindi/MP3/ | 04:13 |
| Super_BQ | maybe remove and reinstall samba? | 04:14 |
| xim | doubt that'll help | 04:15 |
| xim | i still advise changing login credentials | 04:15 |
| Super_BQ | you mean the smb.credential file? | 04:16 |
| xim | more generally, i mean changing u:/p: to avoid certain characters | 04:17 |
| Super_BQ | i did that | 04:17 |
| Super_BQ | no dice | 04:17 |
| xim | oh, sorry | 04:17 |
| Super_BQ | perhaps I should add a new user | 04:17 |
| xim | honestly, idk | 04:17 |
| xim | couldn't hurt | 04:17 |
| xim | if you did, i'd be curious what happens | 04:18 |
| xim | ie, logging in with new U:Peter P:pass from windows does what? etc | 04:18 |

| Daisuke_Ido | just sudo apt-get install eggdrop and skip all the problems there. | 05:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | there's no sense in compiling something that's in the repositories | 05:46 |

| Jucato | !nvidia | Jimmy1 | 06:37 |
| ubotu | Jimmy1: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 06:37 |
| Jucato | bragoo08: libxine1-ffmpeg | 06:37 |
| bragoo08 | jucato: I tried that, it won't install. message says it's old | 06:38 |
| Daisuke_Ido | hardy? | 06:39 |
| Jucato | that would be weird... | 06:40 |
| Jimmy1 | how do update packet manger | 06:40 |
| Jimmy1 | there is a driver that i know is in there when it get updated but i dont know how to do it | 06:40 |
| Jucato | "sudo apt-get update" will try to check if there are updates available | 06:40 |
| Jimmy1 | sweet | 06:40 |
| bragoo08 | jucato: done that, update dosn't work either! | 06:41 |
| Jucato | bragoo08: fresh install? | 06:42 |
| bragoo08 | jucato: not again. I just did that last night! | 06:43 |
| Jucato | bragoo08: no. I'm asking you if it's a fresh install | 06:43 |
| bragoo08 | jucato: yep yep | 06:44 |
| Jucato | !pastebin | 06:44 |

| Jimmy1 | Hmm its not there ! i did it yesterday but today i reinstalled kububtu and when i do update it doesnt find it ! the file that i need is "Nvidia glx new" or something like that | 06:44 |
| Jucato | bragoo08: hm.. are you able to install any other package Add/Remove or Adept? | 06:44 |
| bragoo08 | jimmy1: have you enabled "universe" repos. | 06:45 |
| Jimmy1 | how do you do that ? | 06:45 |
| Jucato | no. nvidia drivers are in restricted, not universe | 06:45 |
| bragoo08 | jimmy1: sorry, i meant "restricted drivers". | 06:45 |
| Jimmy1 | yeh | 06:45 |
| Jimmy1 | but when i check the box to use the nvidia card it wants me to install the nvidia glx new driver | 06:46 |
| Jimmy1 | i had it yesterday but yesterday posed a whole lot of other problems | 06:46 |
| Jimmy1 | The software source for the package | 06:47 |
| Jimmy1 | nvidia-glx-new | 06:47 |
| Jimmy1 | is not enabled. | 06:47 |
| bragoo08 | jimmy1: are you doing it in Admistrator Mode? | 06:48 |
| Jimmy1 | yes | 06:48 |
| bragoo08 | jimmy1: my nvidia-glx-new installed automatically when i clicked "enable"! | 06:49 |
| Jimmy1 | yeh when i click enable it says what i pasted above | 06:50 |
| Jimmy1 | yesterday someone told me to type in something in terminal and it updated it and everythying was there including nvidia settings or something | 06:51 |
| bragoo08 | jimmy1: in terminal, type "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new" that should do it! | 06:53 |
| Jimmy1 | Package nvidia-glx-new is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 06:54 |
| Jimmy1 | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 06:54 |
| Jimmy1 | is only available from another source | 06:54 |
| Jimmy1 | E: Package nvidia-glx-new has no installation candidate | 06:54 |
| Daisuke_Ido | can you pastebin your sources.list? | 06:54 |
| bragoo08 | jimmy1: in adept manager, update repositories, enable "restricted" | 06:55 |
| Jimmy1 | that sound farmiliar | 06:56 |
| Jimmy1 | ok i cant find restricted | 06:58 |
| Jimmy1 | where is it again sorry ! | 06:58 |
| Jucato | !repositories | 06:58 |
| ubotu | The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 06:58 |
| Jimmy1 | Hmm im having trouble | 07:01 |
| jussi01 | Jimmy1: where are you looking? | 07:02 |
| Jimmy1 | apt manager | 07:03 |
| jussi01 | Jimmy1: close everything, got to, kmenu - system - adept - adept menu( top left corner) - manage repositories | 07:03 |
| Ketrel | I just reinstalled kubuntu, and I just installed Compiz Fusion, in CCSM, the icons are all missing, anyone know what's up there? | 07:05 |
| Jimmy1 | yeh i have clicked that but i cant find ( update repositories, enable "restricted") | 07:05 |

| Nyad | Hi. I have kde3.5.8 if I want to upgrade to 3.5.9 is it safe to just type sudo apt-get install kde | 07:13 |
| Nyad | like will the upgrade keep all my other stuff working? | 07:14 |
| bragoo08 | nyad: as far as i know, yes | 07:14 |
| Jucato | Nyad: 1. You'll have to add the special repo for KDE 3.5.9. 2. It will only upgrade KDE packages and packages that it might depend on | 07:14 |
| Jucato | see http://kubuntu.org for instructions | 07:14 |
| Nyad | tnx | 07:15 |
| Nyad | ok. Now a new kernel has been released. I want to upgrade to it but how? | 07:15 |
| Nyad | without waiting for hardy | 07:15 |
| jussi01 | !kernel | 07:16 |
| ubotu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages | 07:16 |
| Jucato | release from kernel.org? you'll have to compile it yourself if you don't want to upgrade to Hardy (and Hardy might not even have the latest latest) | 07:16 |
| jussi01 | Nyad: hardy is 1 week away, you sure you cant wait? | 07:17 |
| Nyad | well I'd like to know for the future :) thanks Jucato | 07:18 |

| b4l74z4r | is it possible to make the media script in konversation work with rhythmbox? | 08:31 |
| jussi01 | b4l74z4r: I dont think so. :/ | 08:31 |
| b4l74z4r | ok | 08:32 |
| Ketrel | I installed compiz fusion and it's autostarting. How can I make it not do that? | 08:32 |
| jussi01 | b4l74z4r: it is, but you would need to recompile it iirc | 08:32 |
| jussi01 | Ketrel: turn it off before shutting down? | 08:33 |
| Jucato | jussi01: recompile what? | 08:33 |
| Ketrel | I didn't, but I don't recall it doing this on my first install. Is there any way to say don't autostart, because I do want to start it manually. | 08:33 |
| jussio1 | Jucato: konversation, isnt that /media thing compiled in? | 08:34 |
| Jucato | of course not :) | 08:34 |
| Jucato | it's just a bash script in /usr/share/apps/konversation/scripts/ | 08:34 |
| jussio1 | Jucato: ok then. you learn something new everyday :) | 08:35 |
| jussio1 | b4l74z4r: ^^ | 08:35 |
| Jucato | b4l74z4r: if you can figure out how to make rhythmbox spit out information from a command (like using dbus), and cut that text up into pieces or something, you're very much able to customize that script for your purposes | 08:36 |
| Ketrel | any idea how to stop it? | 08:36 |
| b4l74z4r | ok | 08:37 |
| jim | hey guys | 08:37 |
| jim | just wondering if any1 can help me change me screens resolution | 08:37 |
| jussio1 | Ketrel: system settings - advanced - session manager | 08:38 |
| jussio1 | !lamp | 08:38 |
| ubotu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

| jim | i dont have a sessions manager | 08:38 |
| jussio1 | jim: that was for Ketrel, not for you ;) | 08:39 |
| jim | lol | 08:39 |
| Ketrel | jussi01: thanks, I that's what's different. | 08:40 |
| jim | i am in monitor and display settings and the max setting i can go to is 640 x 480 | 08:40 |
| Ketrel | I forgot to set it to use fresh sessions when I restarted :) | 08:40 |
| jussio1 | :) | 08:40 |
| jussio1 | jim: you were here earlier, correct? | 08:40 |
| jim | yeh the computer crashed | 08:40 |
| jim | with the setting someone gave me | 08:41 |
| jussio1 | jim: did you read the link I posted then? | 08:41 |
| jim | the computer crashed so i didnt see | 08:41 |

| jim | ahh yeh i did that and it crashed | 08:42 |
| bragoo08 | jim: have you selected the correct monitor in the monitor settings? | 08:44 |
| bragoo08 | jim: if you only have "plug and play" selected, then that is quite possibly the problem! | 08:45 |
| Ketrel | Final question for the night, I have some wep secured networks, and I can't get knetworkmanager to autoconnect to them. (the info is stored), but it only connects to non-wep secured ones. There any way to get it to auto-connect to the wep ones? | 08:45 |
| jim | ahhhggrr this is hard | 08:48 |
| jim | how do i know what is the correct monitor settings ? | 08:48 |
| jim | i dont think i selected a plug and play i have only selected the nvidia thingy | 08:49 |
| bragoo08 | jim: click "configure" next monitor. | 08:49 |
| bragoo08 | jim: you will see a list box, under the list box you will see a button "select" | 08:50 |
| bragoo08 | jim: click this button, and your monitor will show in the list if it has been auto detected. | 08:50 |
| bragoo08 | jim: if not select it manually from the list that says "manufactures" | 08:51 |
| jim | computer administrator > monitor and display ! | 08:52 |
| jim | is that where your talking about | 08:52 |
| bragoo08 | jim: yes thats the 1 | 08:52 |
| bragoo08 | jim: sorry, i thought you were there already! | 08:53 |
| jim | do i click seccond screen ? | 08:53 |
| bragoo08 | jim: NO NO NO NO! | 08:54 |
| pato | hi, is it possible to set up synaptic like default package manager? | 08:54 |
| bragoo08 | jim: just the 1 you are using, (if you only have one monitor) | 08:54 |
| jim | there is nothing there on monitor | 08:55 |
| jim | i dont think i have the monitor thing | 08:55 |
| bragoo08 | jim: are you in admin mode | 08:55 |
| jim | yes | 08:55 |

| jim | monitor 1 plug and play | 09:08 |
| jim | primary 1 | 09:08 |
| bragoo08 | jim: in the list box select "manufacturers" | 09:09 |
| jim | no can do | 09:09 |
| bragoo08 | jim: then find the manufacturer of your monitor and model/type | 09:09 |
| jim | there is only primary 1 and secondary 1 | 09:09 |
| bragoo08 | jim: now that is bloody odd! | 09:10 |
| DarkriftX | whenever i try apt-get it asks for my cdrom, how do i make it just use the internet instead? i checked my sources.list and there were no file:// entries and i didnt see cdrom in there | 09:10 |
| jim | yeh yesterday i didnt have "monitor" and i reinstalled linux and then it decided to aprear | 09:11 |
| DarkriftX | nvm, found it | 09:11 |
| jerknextdoor | Dark: check your repositories. by default it might have cdrom selected | 09:11 |
| DarkriftX | it was first line and i didnt see it | 09:11 |
| bragoo08 | jim: just a tic i'm switching to the Linux machine. I'm on the windows machine at the moment! | 09:12 |

| jim | wb | 09:19 |
| jim | and go Carlton | 09:19 |
| bragoo08 | jim: in monitor >> configure, there should be 3 choices in the list box, Generic, Manufacturers and Plug 'n' Play | 09:21 |
| bragoo08 | go tigers | 09:22 |
| jim | there is only 2 to select from | 09:22 |
| jim | plug and play and unknown | 09:23 |
| jerknextdoor | Greenery: zip -r <folder name> <folder name> | 09:23 |
| bragoo08 | jim: can you expand "unknown"? | 09:23 |
| jim | no | 09:23 |
| jim | its just a title | 09:23 |
| jim | same as plug and play | 09:24 |
| jerknextdoor | greenery: ubuntu forums has plenty of questions about it. but also just "man zip" in terminal will help also. | 09:24 |
| bragoo08 | jim: have you clicked "detect monitor" ? | 09:24 |
| Greenery | jerknextdoor: thanks, i got it now | 09:25 |
| jerknextdoor | np | 09:25 |

| jerknextdoor | well, what was the initial problem. i missed that when i joined into tonight. | 09:28 |
| jerknextdoor | (i cant promise anything it just sounded simliar to something i had a while back) | 09:28 |
| jim | firstly i enabled my nvida card and it needed to be rebooted ! once it has been rebooted the screen is oversized ! now most of the options i have been given to do dont apear on my computer for some reason | 09:29 |
| jerknextdoor | alright so basically you're screen isn't the right size by default and you aren't give the option to go to the right resolution in the prefs? | 09:30 |
| jim | if i disable the nvidia 3d card then i wont be able to use compiz ! thats the main reason y i am wanting to use the nvidia card | 09:30 |
| jim | yes | 09:30 |
| jerknextdoor | alright....well, have you tried editing your xorg.conf? | 09:30 |
| jim | there is a bar which SHOULD move over to the right and change my resolution but it wont move | 09:30 |
| jim | no | 09:30 |
| jim | what do i type to do this | 09:30 |
| jerknextdoor | alright give me one sec to look it up... | 09:30 |
| jim | :) | 09:31 |
| jerknextdoor | alright it might be a minute, i have to go grab something. haha. | 09:31 |
| jim | lol np | 09:31 |
| jim | (n=jim@90.210.183.180). <-- is that me ? | 09:32 |
| jerknextdoor | jim: in terminal type "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" | 09:35 |
| jerknextdoor | without quotes | 09:35 |
| jim | sudo: gedit: command not found | 09:36 |
| bragoo08 | thats what i get aswell | 09:36 |
| jerknextdoor | wtf. alright give me a minute i have to restart kubuntu in regular kde. | 09:36 |
| jim | lol | 09:37 |
| jerknextdoor | what version are you running (not that it should change it...but maybe) | 09:37 |
| jim | 7.10 | 09:37 |
| jerknextdoor | alright...i've had a beer so i might have typed that wrong. let me try it myself again. haha | 09:38 |
| jim | lol | 09:38 |
| jim | VB ? | 09:38 |
| jerknextdoor | vb? vbox? | 09:38 |
| jim | oh its beer | 09:38 |
| bragoo08 | jim: "sudo kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf" | 09:38 |
| jerknextdoor | oh..... | 09:38 |
| jim | Victoria bitter | 09:38 |
| jim | lol | 09:38 |
| jerknextdoor | ah. | 09:39 |
| jim | yeh that worked | 09:39 |
| jim | now what do i do | 09:39 |
| === JanMalte_ is now known as JanMalte | ||
| jerknextdoor | weird. the gedit worked fine for me. oh well you need to go down to | 09:40 |
| jerknextdoor | Section "screen" | 09:40 |
| jerknextdoor | and then in each one of the SubSection "Display" | 09:41 |
| jerknextdoor | you need to type where it says "Modes" and then it has resolutions. you need to add your resolution to each of those | 09:41 |
| === sparklingshrew is now known as shinygerbil | ||
| jerknextdoor | so if you're res is "1280x800" the modes line should read "Modes [tab] "1280x800" "1024x768" 800x600" "640x480" | 09:43 |
| jerknextdoor | in each one of the SubSection "Display" lines | 09:43 |
| jerknextdoor | jim: if you're not following me let me know. i can be more specific. | 09:44 |

| a_c_m | ok here is the situation, i'm getting anew computer for my new flat, i want to install kubuntu64 ( i have the disk ), but i also want a few choice apps (wireshark and airodump-ng), but that computer will be without net connection for a few weeks... is there any way i can download the .debs (and supporting debs) ? (using kubuntu32 atm) | 10:46 |
| jerknextdoor | a_c_m: you should just be able to download them from the repositories or the developers and then put them on a disk. | 10:47 |
| ActionParsni1 | a_c_m: indeed but if your system does not have the dependancys the apps wont work. I am unsure how to backup the deps too but im sure someone caninput here :) | 10:48 |
| ActionParsni1 | can input* | 10:48 |
| a_c_m | jerknextdoor: yeah, i was hoping i guess for a way to see what the dependices are and grab them too | 10:48 |
| jerknextdoor | oh...yeah. i cant help you there. i'm sure it's faily simple but ive never dealt with tit so i'm not sure. | 10:49 |
| pato | ActionParsni1: I'm using it. But how can i set up to control update with synaptic? If updates of package is availlable, adept will warn u. I change it for synaptic. I hope, u understand me :D | 10:49 |
| ActionParsni1 | pato: i dontknow about that, sorry. I always use apt-get | 10:51 |
| ActionParsni1 | pato: so much easier | 10:51 |
| ActionParsni1 | pato: I got a script called updatenow which runs: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get clean; | 10:52 |
| === debian_ is now known as |Debian| | ||
| pato | ActionParsni1: OK, thank u for your interest, but i know about sudo apt-get update, upgrade etc. I talk about icon in system tray. If updates are availlable, adept will start and it will warn u by icon in system tray. If I can not change it, how can i remove this icon from system tray? sorry for my english :D | 11:00 |
| ActionParsni1 | pato: just disable it but you will have to manualy install and check for updates | 11:01 |
| pato | ActionParsni1: How can i disable it? Is it secure for me? I know, lama question :D | 11:07 |
| ActionParsni1 | pato: right click it and see what you find, not sure tbh | 11:09 |
| funcrush | I usually edit text files on kate and save. But when I save them, the input method is selected XIM by default, so I can't type anything before select scim. How can I fix this problem? | 11:10 |

| Hub441 | hi! | 12:20 |
| Hub441 | started packaging for kubuntu/debian some days a go and due to this good howto (https://wiki.kubuntu.org/PackagingGuide/Complete) everything works fine so far, but i'm a bit confused about version names | 12:21 |
| Hub441 | so the original version of $myprog is 1.0.0 so what should i put into the changelog? 1.0.0 1.0.0-0 1.0.0-1 1.0.0-0ubuntu0 etc. | 12:22 |
| Jucato | Hub441: that depends on whether it's been touched in Debian first or touched in Ubuntu first... try asking for guidance in #ubuntu-motu | 12:23 |
| Hub441 | afaik there is no package for $myprog atm | 12:23 |
| Hub441 | join #ubuntu-motu | 12:24 |

| jonathan__ | hello! | 13:56 |
| jonathan__ | i currently try to install code::block for c++-programming. | 13:57 |
| jonathan__ | but after klicking the .deb- File the Installer says that the "dependencys are not satisfiable"... | 13:58 |
| jussio1 | jonathan__: what exactly are you trying to install? which package? | 13:58 |
| jonathan__ | there are 4 debs. the first one says that the second is missing, the second that it needs the third and the third needs an other package (libwxgtk) thats already installed. The fourth deb-File is only a plugin that cant be installed without the main-programm installed (first deb) | 13:59 |
| jonathan__ | i downloaded the debs manually | 14:00 |
| Jimmy1 | Heeeeeeeeeey | 14:00 |
| Jimmy1 | my video card FINALLY works :D | 14:00 |
| Jimmy1 | All i wanna do now is put compiz on for that spinning box thingy (yeh i know small things amuses small minds) | 14:00 |

| Alp` | when will there be a stable version of kde 4? | 14:03 |
| IppatsuMan | jonathan__: install debs using dpkg -i packagename.deb (don't worry about errors), then run sudo apt-get -f install or sudo aptitude -f install , check that the output makes sense and confirm to install missing dependencies | 14:03 |
| Jimmy1 | is 7.10 fiest or gutsy ? | 14:04 |
| jussi01 | Alp`: Id imagine at 4.1 in about august. also, kde4 support is in #kubuntu-kde4 | 14:04 |

| openSea | hi, all! does anyone know why WEBMIN is not in the reps? is it a license problem?? and is there a good alternative? | 16:30 |
| Jimmy1 | trying to get compiz working | 16:30 |
| tzd | how do i get kmail to open up automatically when i press a "mailto:" link please? | 16:31 |
| Jimmy1 | i dunno | 16:31 |
| jussio1 | Jimmy1 and init_alan: please take the offtopic chatter to #kubuntu-offtopic | 16:31 |
| Jimmy1 | Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww :( | 16:31 |
| Jimmy1 | but i liek it here | 16:31 |
| llutz | openSea: webmin is a security-risk, that's why most distros don't have it in their repos | 16:31 |
| Jimmy1 | every1 is soo nice warm and inviting | 16:31 |
| Jimmy1 | there is no one in there and its quiet in there | 16:32 |
| openSea | llutz, how so? | 16:32 |
| BluesKaj | tzd, make kmail your default email client in system settings/default applications for starters | 16:32 |
| tzd | BluesKaj: done that | 16:32 |
| BluesKaj | ok , what app are you using to launch the email client ? | 16:33 |
| llutz | tzd: firefox? add a "user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.mailto", "kmail");" to your user.js | 16:33 |
| tzd | BluesKaj: im using kontact. llutz: yes im on FF. I'll try that, thanks! | 16:34 |
| openSea | llutz: guys at #ubuntu suggested ebox, but i think it's gnome based. is there any k-alternative to webmin? | 16:34 |
| llutz | openSea: i don't know, and i don't see any need for a tool like that | 16:35 |
| ArTo | stdin: ok, thanx | 16:35 |
| openSea | llutz: maybe you're right, but right now i don't have an immediate need for my klamav, and i'd like to have it stop loading at startup. but i don't know how to do it, and thought webmin would give me access to startup applications on/off control. | 16:36 |
| llutz | openSea: update-rc.d maybe helps you | 16:37 |

| spiroo | How do I remove a user on xsession? | 17:30 |
| anabain | not in gutsy neither in hardy | 17:31 |
| spiroo | a_c_m: You does not need a Quad core for that ;) | 17:31 |
| a_c_m | need and want ;) 2 totally different thigns | 17:32 |
| a_c_m | partitioning and installing now | 17:32 |
| anabain | btw, I'm running a quad core | 17:32 |
| a_c_m | got a 1tb of storage :) | 17:32 |
| a_c_m | was fighting with vista all this morning getting the crapware off and getting it into a useable state | 17:33 |
| anabain | a_c_m, I only could install hardy, but not 64bits version, though I fetched the correct stuff... weird! | 17:33 |
| JoshOvki | a_c_m: is it possible to get it working to a useable state?;) | 17:34 |
| spiroo | No it is not | 17:35 |
| spiroo | Vista sucks and Kubuntu rocks, that is how it is ,) | 17:35 |
| JoshOvki | XP was always a good OS | 17:36 |
| spiroo | No it wasnt | 17:37 |
| anabain | does anybody run a true 64bits amd system? if so, which kernel package are you using, please? | 17:37 |
| spiroo | Just to make it clear for evryone. Windows and Gates sucks .d | 17:37 |
| flipstar | anabain: x86_64 its covered by generic kernel | 17:38 |
| JoshOvki | spiroo: if it wasnt that good why was it such a success and still is a sucess | 17:38 |
| anabain | flipstar, do you mean that the generic kernel installed runs my system in 64bits mode? how can I check? | 17:39 |
| spiroo | JoshOvki: Because people does not have a choice when they buy a PC? .D | 17:39 |
| spiroo | It is Windows or nothing .D | 17:40 |
| JoshOvki | spiroo: Dell? | 17:40 |
| spiroo | Who want Dell. | 17:41 |
| a_c_m | humm | 17:41 |
| JoshOvki | spiroo: Windows XP has been alot more successfull than Vista, people where more keen to swap over it XP than vista. | 17:41 |

| Idrogeno | spiroo: off topic. | 17:41 |
| Idrogeno | JoshOvki: off topic | 17:41 |
| JoshOvki | spiroo: alot of people or they would be out of bussiness? | 17:41 |
| a_c_m | the installer warms me about needing to use lilo instead of grub | 17:41 |
| JoshOvki | Idrogeno: i am in offtopic too | 17:41 |
| a_c_m | which i'm fine with | 17:41 |
| a_c_m | but i dont get an | 17:42 |
| Idrogeno | then don't talk about it here. | 17:42 |
| a_c_m | option to install it | 17:42 |
| a_c_m | can anyone help? | 17:42 |
| JoshOvki | Idrogeno: well its rather boring talking about it to myself, because i totaly agree with myself | 17:42 |
| BluesKaj | anabain, I tried 64bit kubuntu 7.10 , but it wouldn't run some apps unless i used the ia32-libs so I just switched back to 32 bit to save tha hassle .There's no perceptible difference in speed IMO. | 17:43 |
| spiroo | I think it is a huge change with 64-bit :) | 17:43 |
| spiroo | You just have to use a lof of RAM ;) | 17:43 |
| spiroo | Quite a shame I still use an Prescott 3.0GHz HT still :D Core 2 soon ;) | 17:44 |
| a_c_m | anyone? lilo install with the installer? | 17:44 |
| a_c_m | please? | 17:44 |
| colonia | why kubunto 7.04 take soooo many ram resourses | 17:45 |
| BluesKaj | !ia32-libs | anabain | 17:45 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ia32-libs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 17:45 |
| flipstar | the 32bit kernel can also deal with up to 64gb when it right configured | 17:45 |
| spiroo | a_c_m: What is wrong? | 17:45 |
| a_c_m | spiroo: i want to create my / with xfs | 17:45 |
| a_c_m | the installer warms me grub doesnt like it and that i should use lilo | 17:46 |
| a_c_m | but i dont get an option anywhere to install lilo | 17:46 |
| a_c_m | so i'm confused | 17:46 |
| a_c_m | and stuck | 17:46 |
| a_c_m | i do get the option not to install any bootloader... | 17:46 |
| flipstar | a_c_m: maybe you have to install lilo outside the installer | 17:47 |
| spiroo | I am not sure what xfs is? :P | 17:47 |
| Ketrel | Is there any way to get a graphical GRUB? | 17:47 |
| flipstar | or just choose a supported filesystem for grub | 17:47 |

| Ax-Ax | jcfp: yes | 19:22 |
| phoenix3051 | opps should have said runing the latest version of 8.04 | 19:23 |
| Ax-Ax | jcfp: like kgameportd and such | 19:24 |
| jcfp | Ax-Ax: if those are kernel threads than it's a matter of whether certain hardware is present and the associated kernel modules are loaded | 19:25 |
| jcfp | some of that may be configurable via boot parameters, or disabling certain modules | 19:26 |
| Ax-Ax | jcfp: but i don't want it to run, i don't even use kde | 19:26 |
| jcfp | Ax-Ax: kernel threads are part of the core of the operating system - not a graphical interface like kde | 19:27 |

| BluesKaj | |Dreams|, whynot just tru k3b in kubuntu ? | 19:52 |
| BluesKaj | try | 19:52 |
| jussi01 | vit: only english in here please | 19:52 |
| |Dreams| | because i need to set the layerbreak manually is that possible with a dl dvd? | 19:53 |
| fat-head | if i have 64bit kubuntu with 32bit libs installed can i install 32bit drivers for hardware ? | 19:54 |
| stdin | fat-head: you can't use 32bit drivers on a 64bit kernel, no | 19:54 |
| fat-head | kk | 19:56 |
| fat-head | thnx for clearing that up | 19:56 |
| fat-head | stdin: are 64bit kubuntu preinstalled drivers as efficient and bug free as the same preinstalled drivers but in 32bit ? | 19:57 |
| stdin | depends on the driver, but for most yes | 19:57 |
| fat-head | stdin thnx | 19:58 |
| phoenix3051 | Has anyone had any problems with 8.04 not booting with kernels 2.6.24-15 or -16 ? | 19:58 |
| fat-head | i have been told many times that 64bit versions of oses are not as stable as 32bit versions is this true ? and do 32bit libs allow use of 32bit apps 100% ? | 19:59 |
| stdin | fat-head: 64bit apps are newer, so may have more bugs but you can run 32bit apps with the 32bit libs yes | 20:00 |
| rickest | fat-head: I don't stability is as much a problem as availability; i.e., no flash player for 64 = no youtube. you can set up a 32-bit chroot, I think that's what most people do | 20:00 |
| SlimeyPete | fat-head: 64-bit kubuntu is generally stable | 20:00 |
| SlimeyPete | but yes, there are more bugs, particularly in the drivers | 20:00 |
| ScorpKing | hi stdin. long time no see :) | 20:01 |

| ScorpKing | is there a way to move the configuration from vmware-server to vmware-player so networking works the same in player as it does in server? | 20:08 |
| svend-ev | bye | 20:10 |
| stdin | not sure, it'll have all the config files in /etc/vmware-(something) depending on the install, copy+paste+hope | 20:10 |
| ScorpKing | it's in /etc/vmware/ but not all files are the same. guess i'll have to go through them all | 20:11 |

| ScorpKing | stdin: yes. 1 & 8 | 20:12 |
| ScorpKing | TeslaTony: where did you disble it? | 20:14 |
| TeslaTony | ScorpKing: I think I did it through Knetwork Manager | 20:15 |

| mactaylor | how big should / be? | 20:17 |
| heath | I increased my compiz desktop to 2 and can't figure out how to get back to my 1st desktop... can anyone help me? | 20:17 |
| ScorpKing | mactaylor: smaller than 7GB gives problems. 15GB is a good size depending on how big your disk is | 20:17 |
| mactaylor | how does under 7GB give problems? fragmentation? | 20:18 |
| ScorpKing | heath: <ctrl>+<f1> maybe? | 20:18 |
| ScorpKing | mactaylor: it gets too small if you install a lot of stuff | 20:18 |
| TeslaTony | Skorpking: Oh, no, wireless IS enabled. I disabled my PCI-E card because Madwifi has some issues with it, and I switched back to using my USB adapter, but now I want access to that card again | 20:19 |
| heath | ScorpKing: That puts me on 1 of the 2nd desktop | 20:19 |
| heath | I need to get back to 1 and the 1st desktop | 20:19 |
| ScorpKing | heath: ah ok. i see. no idea then | 20:19 |
| heath | how can I quit compiz and get back to normal | 20:20 |
| ScorpKing | heath: press <alt>+<f2> and run kwin --replace | 20:20 |
| ScorpKing | TeslaTony: it might be disabled in /etc/network/interfaces | 20:20 |
| heath | lol... it still keeps my on the second desktop | 20:21 |
| ler_hydra | hello all, anyone have an idea why adobe's acrobat reader is always the default program to open pdf's, even if I change the settings in konqueror (and set KPDF as default), pdfs will still open with acrobat, and the setting in konqueror's options is lost | 20:21 |
| TeslaTony | ScorpKing: I think you're right. Thanks | 20:21 |
| ScorpKing | heath: hehe. in kcontrol maybe? | 20:21 |
| ScorpKing | ler_hydra: it will still be in kcontrol | 20:22 |
| heath | how can I add a panel... | 20:22 |
| heath | that way I can click back to the first 4 | 20:22 |
| ScorpKing | heath: right click on the panel. the options are there | 20:23 |
| lipe | eae | 20:23 |
| heath | ... the panel is on the first desktop... this is great | 20:23 |
| ler_hydra | I've changed the setting, it doesn't stick, adobe's acrobat always is at the top of the list when I open the settings panel | 20:23 |
| ScorpKing | heath: you have two monitors? | 20:23 |
| heath | I have tons of things open on the first desktop and can't get back there | 20:23 |
| heath | no just one | 20:23 |
| ScorpKing | heath: i'm a little confused. is all of this on tty7? | 20:24 |
| harmental | FrauHansen: thanks!! | 20:24 |
| heath | yeah... I was runing compiz with 4 workspace and 1 desktop... I changed it to 2 desktop and that gave me 8 workspaces | 20:25 |
| heath | I click on the 5th workspace and that took me to desktop 2 where nothing is | 20:25 |
| heath | I know it sounds crazy... | 20:25 |
| ScorpKing | and now you're back at 4 desktops after you ran kwin --replace? | 20:25 |
| ScorpKing | heath: indeed.. ;) | 20:26 |
| heath | I ran kwin and it did not bring my panel back | 20:26 |
| heath | 1 empty desktop | 20:26 |
| heath | lol | 20:26 |
| ScorpKing | i see an option in kcontrol for multiple desktops under desktop | 20:26 |
| ScorpKing | <ctrl>+<f1/2/3/4> will switch between the desktops if i understand your problem correctly | 20:28 |
| heath | Think of desktop 1 as 1234 and desktop 2 as 5678 | 20:28 |

| ScorpKing | Ulyssus: copy the plugin from the firefox plugin directory to the plugin directory of konqueror or set konqueror to scan the firefox plugin directory for new plugins. it should work either way | 21:25 |

| Ahmuck | hi. does kubutu have auto-detect hardware? | 22:15 |
| joeyadams | Depends on what kind of hardware you're referring to. Generally speaking, yes | 22:15 |
| joeyadams | It autodetects USB, video cards, sound cards, etc. | 22:16 |
| ronan_ | bonsoir | 22:16 |
| joeyadams | Although for some reason, the KDE setup wizard makes you manually select a printer (though I've seen it autodetect a printer before). | 22:16 |
| ronan_ | il y a des francais ici svp ? | 22:17 |
| joeyadams | Gerrit> Try apt-get remove python-tz, then apt-get install python-tz to see if that corrects the problem | 22:18 |

| ubotu | ronan_: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. | 22:18 |
| joeyadams | It might be a good idea to remove (or back up) the /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pytz folder | 22:18 |
| Ketrel | Two questions, when I locked my session, the screensaver would come on, that stopped, how can I get it back? Also, I think alt+tab is behaving differently, is there anything that could've changed that? | 22:19 |
| joeyadams | Ketrel> Compiz screws that up | 22:20 |
| Gerrit | joeyadams: it doesn't... but it does give some hint, apparently there is some file already and it doesn't like that | 22:20 |
| joeyadams | Maybe moving that folder out to somewhere where the installer won't find it will help. | 22:21 |
| joeyadams | Ketrel> Look in your ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc | 22:21 |
| Gerrit | with this information I solved my problem. | 22:21 |
| Gerrit | thanks | 22:21 |
| joeyadams | Ketrel> there might be an AltTabStyle=CDE or so | 22:22 |
| joeyadams | Get rid of that or comment it out with a # | 22:22 |
| joeyadams | then restart kwin by issuing kwin --replace | 22:22 |
| Ketrel | kk, checking now | 22:22 |
| Ketrel | joeyadams, thanks, that line was there | 22:23 |
| Ketrel | is that what compiz screws with? | 22:23 |
| joeyadams | As for the screensaver, I'm not sure about that. Maybe reenabling your screensaver by right clicking on the desktop and following dialogs will turn it back on. | 22:23 |
| joeyadams | Yes | 22:23 |
| joeyadams | Every time you start compiz, it will do that again. | 22:23 |
| Ketrel | (screensaver was fixed by restarting X) | 22:24 |
| joeyadams | okay :) | 22:24 |
| Ketrel | as far as the thing compiz messes with, is there a way to have it not do that? | 22:24 |
| joeyadams | I tried locking my ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc one time, but compiz complains and can't be configured correctly if you do. | 22:25 |
| joeyadams | I just simply run the fix every time. | 22:26 |
| joeyadams | I guess you could make a quickie script that seds it out | 22:26 |
| joeyadams | or greps | 22:26 |
| Ketrel | ok, I'll mess with that in a while :) | 22:27 |
| joeyadams | e.g.: grep -v 'Alt.*CDE' ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc > ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc_temp ; cp ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc_temp ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc ; kwin --replace | 22:27 |
| joeyadams | I read up on regular expressions a few days ago, and I'm glad I did :) | 22:28 |
| joeyadams | You could also simply cp a backup kwinrc to the folder, but that will destroy any new settings you make after making the backup. | 22:30 |
| vasilisa | How come ever siince i installed glx, my wmv movies have a green bar along the top and are lower quality in both kaffeine and VLC??? | 22:30 |
| joeyadams | vasilisa> You mean a compositing window manager like Compiz? glx is the OpenGL implementation stack on the X windows system (or something like that :) ). | 22:31 |
| vasilisa | joeyadams: Well I had to install glx in order to make compiz work.... | 22:32 |
| joeyadams | vasilisa> Does using a non-compositing window manager like kwin or metacity cause the video problem? | 22:35 |
| adz21c | joeyadams: but its likely compiz is the one causing problems not glx, since i doubt glz is involved in video rendering | 22:35 |
| adz21c | wrong person | 22:35 |
| vasilisa | Hmm.... | 22:35 |
| vasilisa | can i log in somehow in metacity and see? ever since i installed glx it loads that forcifully when i log in | 22:36 |
| joeyadams | metacity --replace (or, in KDE, kwin --replace) | 22:37 |
| joeyadams | metacity is the GNOME display manager. | 22:37 |
| joeyadams | I mean window manager | 22:37 |
| vasilisa | ooh neat command. | 22:38 |

| === edulix_ is now known as Edulix | ||
| bolder | nabend | 22:43 |
| joeyadams | vasilisa> You can apt-get remove xgl. The packages won't have to be redownloaded if you want to use them because they are kept in /var/cache/apt/archives | 22:44 |
| joeyadams | After doing that, you may want to kill your X server. A good way to do this is to properly log out of KDE/GNOME, then Ctrl+Alt+F1, log in, get root, and killall Xorg | 22:45 |
| joeyadams | Then, the X server will start up right away | 22:45 |
| joeyadams | You could just killall Xorg from your window manager, but it's not friendly to the window manager. | 22:45 |
| vasilisa | oi. ok | 22:45 |
| vasilisa | thanks im going to try | 22:46 |
| vasilisa | YAY it worked | 22:50 |
| vasilisa | thanks a bunch | 22:50 |
| vasilisa | im not fond of xgl, it made fonts small , etc. i need to find some other way to use compiz | 22:51 |
| nosrednaekim | aiglx... | 22:54 |
| Nyad | what file must I edit to disable my capslock key? | 22:54 |
| nosrednaekim | vasilisa: ati card on gutsy? | 22:54 |
| vasilisa | nosrednaekim: Yes, ati on gutsy | 22:59 |
| vasilisa | aiglx? | 22:59 |
| nosrednaekim | vasilisa: I'd say wait 8 days and just install hardy | 23:00 |
| nosrednaekim | which should have aiglx with ati | 23:00 |
| vasilisa | nosrednaekim: k xD | 23:00 |
| vasilisa | sweet | 23:00 |
| nosrednaekim | or you can install it now... its fairly stable | 23:00 |
| Nyad | what file must I edit to disable my capslock key? | 23:00 |
| eduardo | . | 23:13 |
| Nyad | quiet isn't it | 23:15 |
| PeterFA | After using synaptic to install fonts, do I need to restart anything for the new fonts to be usable? | 23:21 |
| Nyad | the apps themselves must be restarted to take effect | 23:22 |
| Nyad | but a full system reboot couldn't hurt :) | 23:23 |
| Nyad | but its not necessary | 23:23 |
| Jucato | at most only X is needed to be restarted | 23:23 |
| bolder | can i get kubuntu as live-CD ? | 23:25 |
| PeterFA | I've got a billion fonts now :) | 23:26 |
| nosrednaekim | bolder: certainly | 23:27 |
| Dr_willis | The kubuntu 'desktop' cd is a live cd. | 23:28 |
| bolder | ok thx | 23:32 |

| matt_ | just burning the newest 8.04 kubuntu "3.5" edition...just wondering...when it is officially released, that being 8.04, i'll be able to just "update" the the "official" version, right? | 23:36 |
| Dr_willis | matt_, of course. thats a primary feature of the apt-get system | 23:36 |
| matt_ | Dr_willis: thank you. | 23:37 |
| matt_ | Dr_willis: now enough of this terminal talking and cli image downloading and burning. gotta love links and cdrecord though, they are lifesavers | 23:37 |
| matt_ | Dr_willis: thanks, and later. | 23:37 |
| feierfox | please recomment a pic-viewer | 23:41 |
| Nyad | gwenview | 23:43 |
| Nyad | feierfox: gwenview | 23:43 |
| feierfox | ok, thanks | 23:44 |
| feierfox | one other in an other channel recommented it too | 23:44 |
| matt__ | Dr_willis: so umm..after trying to boot from the cd...i get the "kubuntu" status bar (blue bar back and forth), and then i get me a "built in shell=ash type help for a list of commands". what is wrong | 23:45 |
| feierfox | what is the less RAM i could have to use a Desktop in Linux? | 23:48 |
| Odd-rationale | 6a mb | 23:48 |
| Odd-rationale | 64 | 23:48 |
| SlimeyPete | you can get by with 64-128MB but you should have 256 | 23:48 |
| matt__ | Dr_willis: hey...after i asked you about the shell=ash...did you reply, i had to leave... | 23:48 |
| NickPresta | feierfox, you probably want a minimum of 256. | 23:48 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | i was able to have a pretty snappy xubuntu desktop on a celeron 600 with 192mb ram | 23:49 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | but i would definitely recommend at least 256 | 23:49 |
| matt__ | so is there a channel for 8.04? | 23:50 |
| Odd-rationale | !hardy | 23:50 |
| 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 | 23:50 |
| feierfox | could you recommend a distro with really weak hardware-need? | 23:50 |
| Odd-rationale | feierfox: puppy linux or dsl | 23:50 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | how weak are you talking? | 23:50 |
| feierfox | DSL? | 23:50 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | yeah, i would say DSL, i've never used puppy linux | 23:50 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | damn small linux | 23:50 |
| NickPresta | feierfox, DSL. Anything using Fluxbox/XFCE/some other minimal WM. | 23:50 |
| Nyad | I changed my xmodmap file. How do I get it to take effect? | 23:50 |
| feierfox | DSL or Puppy? | 23:51 |
| Odd-rationale | feierfox: I like puppy better than dsl. | 23:51 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | feierfox: perhaps it would be easier to ask... how much ram do you have? | 23:51 |
| feierfox | thanks / danke ! | 23:51 |
| Odd-rationale | but dsl is a bit smaller. ~50mb. puppy is ~70mb | 23:51 |
| Nyad | Odd-rationale: I changed my xmodmap file. How do I get it to take effect? | 23:52 |
| feierfox | thanks anyway, i will check out puppy! | 23:52 |
| SlimeyPete | feierfox: also check out Vector | 23:52 |
| Odd-rationale | Nyad: dunno... | 23:52 |
| matt__ | when trying to kubuntu 8.04 live cd...it takes me straight to a terminal after selecting (try kubuntu) and it says something to the effect of "built in shell=ash type help for a list of commands". any ideas? | 23:53 |
| Odd-rationale | matt__: did you check the md5sums? | 23:54 |
| matt__ | Odd-rationale: no i didn't...i'm operating soley from a cli, i don't know how to. | 23:55 |
| Odd-rationale | matt__: check the md5sum of the iso before burning to cd. | 23:55 |
| matt__ | Odd-rationale: right now i'm using links to download the kde4 beta live cd, i'll try it...i'll check the md5 sum if you'll show me how | 23:56 |
| Odd-rationale | matt__: can I see the link? | 23:56 |
| matt__ | Odd-rationale: *thinks how to copy and paste in terminal without a mouse... | 23:56 |
| NickPresta | matt__, in a terminal: cat hardy_md5_sum.txt && md5sum hardy_cd.iso | 23:57 |
| matt__ | NickPresta: ok....so where do i get the actuall md5 sum? | 23:57 |
| Odd-rationale | matt__: I must of gotten lost somewhere... are you on the livecd right now? | 23:58 |
| matt__ | NickPresta: wait..md5sums... | 23:58 |
| matt__ | Odd-rationale: no, i'm on my installed system that is so screwed up. | 23:58 |
| NickPresta | matt__, yep :) | 23:58 |
| Odd-rationale | matt__: so on your installed system you only have terminal? | 23:58 |
| matt__ | Odd-rationale: not true, but it's all that works...right now. | 23:58 |
| bolder | gn8 | 23:58 |
| Odd-rationale | matt__: so the iso file is on the installed system? | 23:59 |
| matt__ | Odd-rationale: umm....yes | 23:59 |
| Odd-rationale | matt__: try "md5sum /pathtoiso" | 23:59 |
