| Desmond | i cant get java to work in firefox | 00:46 |
| Desmond | i installed sun java 6 \ | 00:46 |
| Xbehave | Desmond: you on 64bit? | 00:47 |
| sebsebseb | I just updated a computer from Gutsy to Hardy, however what I am finding odd is how the entry for WIndows XP is no longer there, just my old kernel from Gutsy stuff and the new kernel stuff from Hardy. Any idea's why that is? I assume to fix this it's just edit the menu.lst, but I carn't remember exactly what to put in and that, and XP should be the default boot, since this is a family computer, and my Dad is locked | 00:48 |
| sebsebseb | into Windows, so it will probably take quite a bit of effort to convert him to Ubuntu. and it's proabably hardly even worth it in his case, even though he is a resonablly technical Windows user. | 00:48 |
| Xbehave | does it work in other browsers, have you installed the plugin thorugh repos or manually? | 00:48 |
| NickPresta | sebsebseb, try using: update-grub | 00:49 |
| Xbehave | sebsebseb: there may be a better way of doing this but do you have any backup menr.lst (/boot/grub/menumlist..) | 00:49 |
| Desmond | through repos | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | it woudn't have updated GRub as well? just the distro? | 00:49 |
| Desmond | i aptitude'd it | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | nah no backup | 00:49 |
| Desmond | i have 32 bit | 00:49 |
| Xbehave | sebsebseb: you can add windows manually to grub | 00:50 |
| Xbehave | !grub | 00:50 |
| ubottu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | yeah I know WIndows can be manually added to GRub since I done it before, but I coudn't remember exactly how etc | 00:51 |
| sebsebseb | Desmond: I would have thought Grub would have been updated with the update from Gusty to Hardy? I guess not? | 00:52 |
| Xbehave | ill look up a guide, as i cant rember exactly | 00:52 |
| Xbehave | Desmond: if its not one of the obvious things e,g 64bit problems or not having installed the java-plugins im no use try the forums, does it work in konq? | 00:53 |
| Desmond | not sure | 00:53 |
| sebsebseb | what's your problem Desmond? plugins? | 00:53 |
| sebsebseb | browser plugins? | 00:53 |
| Desmond | yea | 00:53 |
| sebsebseb | I can probably help you with this well if you tell me what it is :D since you obviouslly said before I came here | 00:54 |
| Xbehave | sebsebseb: open up /boot/grub/menu.lst and it has an example for a windows partition, uncomment the line and correct the partition to add windows | 00:54 |
| Desmond | java in firefox | 00:54 |
| sebsebseb | Xbehave: ah yes now I remember that's what I did last time | 00:54 |
| Desmond | @xbehave no it doesnt | 00:54 |
| ubottu | Desmond: Error: "xbehave" is not a valid command. | 00:54 |
| sebsebseb | Desmond: yeah Java can be a bit of a pain to install | 00:55 |
| Xbehave | !java | 00:55 |
| ubottu | 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. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) or earlier. | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | there is this page or should be on the Ubuntu site, but from memory you want the Sun one from Synaptec package manager | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | also you have to press tab and enter I think it was on the agreement, just enter on it's own for ok woudn't do the trick | 00:56 |
| sebsebseb | is there any need to keep my old kernel? I guess not, in the past I have just removed the old kernels | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | on my computer for example. | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | yeah remove the old and keep the latest | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | one from updates | 00:57 |
| NickPresta | sebsebseb, you can keep older kernels. I often do incase I have problems with the newer kernel which prevent my system from running, etc | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | NickPresta: yeah, but probably no good reason to keep my old one from Gutsy or whatever, plus I guess it can be re installed if there ever was a good reason | 00:58 |
| Xbehave | sebsebseb: the default line will work if windows is in the 1st partion of the 1st drive, otherwise grub names partitions differently from linux (hd0 is hda, hd1 is hdb, etc) and the number afterwards is droped by 1 e.g hdb3 is hd1,2 | 00:58 |
| Bauldrick | OT - how long should it take to transcode video .iso to .avi | 00:58 |
| NickPresta | sebsebseb, it might be hard to reinstall if you can't boot your system ;) At any rate, you can safely remove the older kernel if you wish | 00:59 |
| gorczeski | boa noite | 00:59 |
| Xbehave | sebsebseb: afaik they cant be reinstalled but if everything is working there is no need to keep old kernels | 00:59 |
| sebsebseb | yeah Xbehave I did the example before, now I remember. and to make it so XP would boot up first, I had it as the first one in the file, with Ubuntu stuff after that | 00:59 |

| o0Chris0o | well thats the thing, I removed that too lol | 01:10 |
| o0Chris0o | compiz | 01:10 |
| yao_ziyuan | but there is a small bug in the Crystal kwin style: | 01:10 |
| yao_ziyuan | In KDE 3.5.8/9, start a Firefox 2, set the main window in normal state (rather than maximized or minimized), let the main window's upper and lower sides dock the upper edge and lower edge of the desktop, but don't let the left and right sides dock. Then, maximize it, restore it, minimize it, restore it, and now you can see its lower side has an undrawn hollow zone. | 01:10 |
| psyco | You removed desktop effects :S | 01:10 |
| o0Chris0o | yeah because it messes up my inactive titlebars | 01:11 |
| yao_ziyuan | compiz-kde is buggy | 01:11 |
| o0Chris0o | they disappear | 01:11 |
| Bauldrick | does anyone else see npviewer.bin gobbling cpu? | 01:11 |
| o0Chris0o | but compiz is still active somehow | 01:12 |

| psyco | what happends when you run | 01:13 |
| psyco | kwin --replace | 01:13 |

| psyco | alt+f2 | 01:13 |
| psyco | then run | 01:13 |
| psyco | kwin --replace | 01:13 |
| o0Chris0o | fixes it till I close out the console | 01:14 |

| sebsebseb | does it not say an update is avilable? | 01:20 |
| jlarsson | yes, but only system packages | 01:20 |
| sebsebseb | maybe you got to upgrade to gusty first then to hardy | 01:20 |
| sebsebseb | or | 01:20 |
| sebsebseb | you just change the sources lists | 01:20 |
| jlarsson | Isnt there a button or something lika in ubuntu ? | 01:21 |
| sebsebseb | you have both? | 01:21 |
| Desmond | sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:21 |
| sebsebseb | or sudo gedit | 01:21 |
| Desmond | change all the dappers to hardy | 01:21 |
| jlarsson | No, i only have kubuntu now | 01:21 |
| NickPresta | jlarsson, you can edit your sources.list inside Adept Manager. | 01:21 |

| === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang | ||
| sebsebseb | jiarsson: Ubuntu is easier to start with | 01:24 |
| sebsebseb | in my opinion | 01:25 |
| jlarsson | yes i know | 01:25 |
| sebsebseb | also you can install your Kubuntu programs in Ubuntu | 01:25 |
| sebsebseb | and if you update a version of Ubuntu/Kubuntu well then your updating both of them | 01:25 |
| sebsebseb | in Ubuntu it should say a new distribution is avialabe and then you would just install that | 01:26 |
| sebsebseb | and that's that | 01:26 |
| jumpkick | no sound after Kubuntu 64 Hardy upgrade | 01:26 |
| jumpkick | what's up with that? | 01:26 |
| jlarsson | okey maybe i should install ubuntu back | 01:27 |
| sebsebseb | well that's easy enough to do | 01:27 |
| sebsebseb | you know how right? without getting rid of everything and starting over? | 01:27 |

| NickPresta | serrucho, either comment out the line or paste the sources.list to a pastebin for us to see and fix | 02:05 |
| crash__ | yeah, whe said but typed faster. | 02:05 |
| Walzmyn | no, having windows trapped in a window where it can't fook up my system is nirvana | 02:05 |
| serrucho | ok | 02:05 |
| BluesKaj | nirvana = no windows at all | 02:06 |
| crash__ | console ftw | 02:06 |
| Devourer | For some reason I can't boot up in the most recent kernel version... It'll go to the kubuntu logo and just keep sitting there acting like it's loading something... Then I tried the recovery mode and it gets stuck at something also. | 02:06 |
| Walzmyn | but now I needa ask - what's the proper / best / socially accepted method for getting an internet connection to a guest OS? | 02:06 |
| Walzmyn | BluesKaj, yes, you're right, but the boss has winders only crap I have to deal with | 02:07 |

| NickPresta | serrucho, are lines 1-4 actually present in the sources.list file? | 02:17 |
| nickv111 | And PhoneOut is the only one that controls my sound, and it doesn't work right because it jumps between all the way on and all the way off | 02:18 |
| nickv111 | Though it worked fine in Gutsy. | 02:18 |
| Devourer | BluesKaj, does grep make an audio text file? | 02:18 |

| Agent_bob | Red_Tear just turn the computer off. and walk outside. you'll see what is real. | 03:00 |
| BluesKaj | we have a botscript running anouncing songs on a web streamer ... wonder if we should ask an op to ban it | 03:00 |
| Red_Tear | Well bob but how do i know then that this is real? | 03:01 |

| asobi | how do i switch from onboard sound to sound card? | 03:02 |
| hexidigital | Red_Tear: there's a perfectly good explaination to it all. You know it is real because your brain tells you it is real. Your brain tells you it is real because it is part of the problem. Ask your brain. | 03:02 |
| Feijo_BR | tekteen: its online, no download needed | 03:02 |
| tekteen | Feijo_BR: what site? | 03:02 |

| _2 | asobi ummm let me see if i can find the howto for this... | 03:08 |
| asobi | how do i tell it to change card | 03:09 |
| asobi | better yet, is there some startup config file to edit? | 03:09 |

| Itaku-AA | on 8.04 how do i get the game alien arena? | 03:09 |
| asobi | adept | 03:09 |
| asobi | where do i find asoundconf | 03:10 |
| genii | asobi: If you run asoundconf in Konsole it will give you the syntax of how to select a default sound card | 03:10 |
| asobi | and what do i edit | 03:10 |
| asobi | hmm | 03:10 |
| genii | asobi: No editing involved | 03:10 |
| cahuez_ | apt-cache search asoundconf maybe.. | 03:10 |
| genii | cahuez_: No. It's installed by default | 03:10 |
| asobi | mm | 03:11 |
| asobi | it gives me syntax | 03:11 |
| asobi | but what parameters do i enter | 03:11 |
| dthacker | Itaku-AA: use adept to search for the package and install it from there. | 03:11 |
| _2 | asobi ok you may also want to "blacklist" your on-board sound chip | 03:12 |
| asobi | O.o | 03:12 |
| asobi | ok. how? | 03:12 |
| genii | asobi: eg: To list your cards: asoundconf list | 03:12 |
| asobi | hmm let me try genii's way first | 03:12 |
| genii | asobie: eg: to pick default: asoundconf set-default-card <one of the names it just gave you> | 03:13 |
| _2 | asobi by sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist add the driver name to the list | 03:13 |
| asobi | hmm | 03:13 |
| asobi | do i need to reboot to take effect? | 03:13 |
| o0Chris0o | what are some cool themes anyone think is cool here? | 03:13 |
| _2 | no. | 03:14 |
| asobi | then it failed | 03:14 |

| genii | asobi: Not usually. Just restart the sound server from system Settings | 03:14 |
| _2 | you need to restart alsa | 03:14 |

| genii | asobi: Thats fine. It will still take. Just hit cancel button on the little popup after it goes to 100% first time | 03:20 |
| _2 | of course you could redirrect stderr to null and clean up the error messages there. | 03:20 |

| genii | asobi: in Konsole: asoundconf is-active <name of card you set to default> | 03:23 |
| asobi | still no :/ | 03:23 |
| BluesKaj | asobi, then you'll have to choose one as the deafault , asoundconf set-default-card "name of soundcard" | 03:23 |
| _2 | genii he needs to be doing that as root no? | 03:23 |
| asobi | hmm | 03:24 |
| asobi | let me do default again | 03:24 |
| asobi | under root | 03:24 |

| _2 | ok | 03:25 |
| BluesKaj | asobi, you may have to relogin | 03:25 |

| genii | asobi: You going to be using the onboard at all? If not, disable it in bios | 03:25 |

| asobi | my keyboard doesn't respond during boot | 03:26 |
| _2 | wiff da hot key | 03:26 |
| BluesKaj | _2 . that's prolly not a bad idea, ...in windows you have to choose one a delete the other in hardware peripherals ...dunno if that works in linux tho | 03:26 |
| asobi | it's not detected yet i think | 03:26 |
| genii | asobi: The thing when you power on tha says usually something like: Hit DEL for Setup sometimes it says F2 or other things. but that key | 03:27 |
| asobi | my keyboard doesn't respond during boot | 03:27 |
| asobi | it's not detected yet i think | 03:27 |
| asobi | could be wrong | 03:27 |
| _2 | BluesKaj you add the module name to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist in linux | 03:27 |
| asobi | suppose it is | 03:27 |
| genii | asobi: Plug some crappy regular ps2 keyboard in to get in, then put your other back on after | 03:27 |

| mneptok | Santi-: login music is controlled by the KDM and your session variables. | 03:55 |

| naknomik | dwidmann: Now I get another error. 'Amarok could not find any sound-engine plugins. Amarok is now updating the KDE configuration database. Please wait a couple of minutes, then restart Amarok.' | 04:00 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: is the amarok-xine package installed? | 04:01 |
| naknomik | How do I find that out? | 04:01 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: dpkg --list amarok-xine | 04:02 |
| naknomik | dwidmann: ii | 04:02 |
| dwidmann | hmm, yup, it is | 04:02 |
| lascar | i just upgraded to hardy and, just like in Gutsy, wifi was shot for my atheros card out of the book. I recompiled from source, load the module, and get wifi again, but the settings don't get saved. In fact, the system hangs whenever I try to hibernate or go on standby, and the ath_pci module is to blame. So, I have to manually load the module after each boot, and my system is no longer capable of hibernation or suspension. Can I be | 04:02 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: if you go to settings-> configure amarok -> ... do you see the xine engine listed? | 04:03 |
| naknomik | dwidmann: I don't have KDE desktop installed, so how do I get to 'settings -> configure amarok? | 04:04 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: I mean in amarok, assuming it runs | 04:04 |
| naknomik | dwidmann: Now, when I can't start amarok, how do get to configure amarok? | 04:04 |
| naknomik | dwidmann: When I press OK on the above mentioned dialog, Amarok splash screen vanishes. | 04:05 |
| dwidmann | :s ah, that rules that out then | 04:05 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: maybe someone in #amarok would know | 04:05 |

| naknomik | Is Kubuntu Desktop available with the compiz goodness like Gnome in 8.04? | 04:12 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: it'll take some work I think | 04:12 |

| naknomik | I'm using GDM and I want to start two sessions, one KDE and one Gnome (KDE is installed). How do I achieve that? | 04:17 |
| kuma | hi, anybody knows witch is the ubuntu spanish channel | 04:17 |
| genii | !es | 04:17 |
| ubottu | Aquí solamente hablamos inglés. Para Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es - allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 04:17 |
| naknomik | If I use 'Switch User', and get back to GDM (with one session already started in Gnome), and login with option to start KDE session, it simply takes me back to my gnome session. | 04:18 |
| kuma | thanks genni :) | 04:18 |
| genii | kuma: You're welcome :) | 04:18 |
| mneptok | genii: es "de nada" ;) | 04:20 |
| genii | naknomik: Since gdm is running in ony one console I'm not sure that way is possible. But if you ctrl-alt-F5 and login then you can issue some command like: startx -:1 & startkde while Gnome is running in console 6 | 04:20 |
| genii | mneptok: :) | 04:20 |
| neon | how can i get make the icon for a external sata hd show on desktop when plugin , i have it configure to get mounted automatically when i plug it, and when on the control center/desktop/behavior and checked to show mounted hd but it does not show any suggestions, thx | 04:21 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: try using kdm instead? | 04:23 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: I've never had any issues with multiple sessions with kdm | 04:23 |
| genii | dwidmann: They want 1 X with Gnome and 1 X with KDE at same time | 04:24 |
| naknomik | How do I change from gdm to kdm? | 04:24 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: to try it out run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop && sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start | 04:24 |
| dwidmann | genii: : i know | 04:24 |
| naknomik | and to change it forever? | 04:24 |
| dwidmann | naknomik: and if you decide you want it to be permanent run sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm and it should give you a choice | 04:25 |
| genii | naknomik: Make sure kdm is installed first. Then: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm choose kdm as the login manager | 04:25 |
| naknomik | OK. Off I go! | 04:25 |
| dsmith_ | hello I have an error thats showing up, kstartupconfig. I moved my /home to its own sep. partition /dev/sda/ | 04:28 |

| dsmith_ | and I edited my fstab | 04:29 |
| dsmith_ | but its still not working | 04:29 |
| spykedtomato | hi everyone - I recently upgraded to hardy, and since doing so video playback (divx files among others) is choppy at full screen - any ideas what that's all about? I've never had problems before this upgrade | 04:29 |
| dsmith_ | neon, is it formattted? Do you have an entry for the /dev in fstab? | 04:29 |
| neon | it is formated and yes there is an entry on fstab, it gets recognized and mounted as soon as i plug it in, the problem is that it does not show the icon in my desktop so i have to click a few times to get to it | 04:31 |
| dsmith_ | under /media or /mnt? something like that? | 04:31 |
| === donald_ is now known as KWGoD | ||
| neon | yes | 04:31 |
| genii | neon: Also, did you move the contents of the old /home there somehow? If so how? cp -someswitches? usermod -d /newhomedir username? Did permissions get preserved? etc | 04:31 |
| dsmith_ | genii: that was me | 04:32 |
| KWGoD | how do i change the audio in konsole? | 04:32 |
| dsmith_ | genii: I did migrate all my data, but left /home | 04:32 |
| KWGoD | how do i change the audio in konsole? | 04:32 |
| genii | dsmith_: There are many "gotchyas" in this situation | 04:32 |
| dsmith_ | what I did was after my data was working from /dev/sda4 i mv /home to /home_old | 04:33 |
| Red_Tear | many what? | 04:33 |
| dsmith_ | and mkdir /home | 04:33 |
| dsmith_ | then made edits in /etc/fstab | 04:33 |
| genii | dsmith_: Some ppl forget the base dir /home still requires to exist for instance :) | 04:34 |
| KWGoD | how do i change the audio in konsole? | 04:34 |
| dsmith_ | so I should not have moved /home? | 04:35 |
| Red_Tear | you know, /home is powerful^^ | 04:35 |
| genii | dsmith_: Well, so long as you remake it it's fine | 04:35 |
| dsmith_ | my data is still there | 04:35 |
| dsmith_ | did I say that I did remake the /home dir, its show wehn cd / | 04:36 |
| genii | dsmith_: But a better inital approach would be more like something: sudo cp -a /home /somewhere then they both still exist | 04:36 |
| dsmith_ | sooo... perhaps sudo cp -a /media/sda4 /home will reverse the breakage? | 04:37 |
| genii | dsmith_: Where /somewhere is the new partition it will be in. Then too the original /home is there in emergency in case that new partition fails at some point | 04:37 |
| KWGoD | how do i change the audio in konsole? | 04:37 |
| dsmith_ | hmmm | 04:37 |
| Red_Tear | what exactly do you mean KWGoD ? | 04:37 |
| intelikey | my data transfer seems slow. 1.90 MB/s someone tell me that's not normal ? | 04:38 |
| genii | dsmith_: /media/sda4 is where your working /home is right now? | 04:38 |
| dsmith_ | genii, gotcha kinda like a cheap raid 1 | 04:38 |
| dsmith_ | yes | 04:38 |
| flaccid | intelikey: normal fr? | 04:38 |
| intelikey | flaccid hda > hdb | 04:39 |
| KWGoD | i need to screw with the audio in konsole cuz my audios not workin right n someone told me earlier how to fix it it was like a one word thing that started with a and ended in mixer or somethin | 04:39 |
| dsmith_ | intelikey: thats not normal, normal is 10-20MB/s | 04:39 |
| flaccid | yeah can be normal. what disks are they? | 04:39 |
| dsmith_ | well it depends though | 04:39 |
| flaccid | can be normal if its notebook 4200rpm.. | 04:39 |
| intelikey | i'll have to look | 04:39 |
| flaccid | on same bus | 04:39 |
| dsmith_ | many variables | 04:39 |
| flaccid | yeah heeeeaps of vars | 04:39 |
| dsmith_ | haha | 04:39 |
| will00 | does anyone have a reccomendation for a graphics setup for a touchscreen point of sale system? | 04:40 |
| genii | dsmith_: Since in this cae it's mounted as /home you have to put it somewhere temp, then something tricky like: sudo umount /home && cp -a /thattempplace /home | 04:40 |
| dsmith_ | wacom board? lol | 04:40 |
| genii | *sudo cp -a blahblah that is | 04:40 |

| dsmith_ | those seem old | 04:42 |
| intelikey | umm not too old. 80g | 04:42 |
| KWGoD | tear did ya get that? | 04:42 |
| flaccid | if its not normal on your system then it might be hard to work out why | 04:42 |
| will00 | flaccid, well im looking for more linux friendly gpus | 04:42 |
| intelikey | being on the same cable slows it down ? | 04:42 |
| dsmith_ | I trpically get 10-20 over smb and nfs | 04:43 |
| dsmith_ | sometimes higerh then that | 04:43 |
| dsmith_ | copy to disc to disc on same machine should be quick | 04:43 |

| intelikey | s/n/h/ | 04:46 |
| dsmith_ | lol | 04:47 |
| dsmith_ | intelikey: only reason Isaid that was I copying 160MB across vista to my NAS for someone, it took 5 mins! | 04:47 |
| intelikey | heh yeah. | 04:48 |
| dsmith_ | where as it takes ~30 sec's for any of my other machines | 04:48 |
| intelikey | only 10x | 04:48 |
| intelikey | it may be ext2 to ext2 but that shouldn't slow it down much over ext3 | 04:49 |
| o0Chris0o | didn't work :( | 04:50 |
| KWGoD | how do i change the audio in konsole? | 04:50 |
| o0Chris0o | !x | 04:51 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 04:51 |
| intelikey | ummm hda ext3 > hdb ext2 | 04:51 |
| intelikey | it must be because it's the same cable | 04:51 |
| intelikey | i've never noticed that kind of "slowness" before | 04:52 |
| flaccid | intelikey: maybe you are usuing an ata33 cable and not 133 | 04:52 |
| intelikey | err umm prolly | 04:52 |
| intelikey | i'm not pulling the box apart to see tho | 04:53 |
| dsmith_ | heh | 04:53 |
| flaccid | haha :p | 04:53 |
| intelikey | may be mfm cable for all i know | 04:54 |
| flaccid | mfm? | 04:54 |
| genii | <coughcough> MFM has two cables | 04:54 |
| o0Chris0o | how do I stop x or restart it so I can use the console? and not the GUI? | 04:54 |
| intelikey | what they used on the first hdd's was about 16 pin | 04:55 |
| intelikey | 15 maybe | 04:55 |
| flaccid | o0Chris0o: you can use the console with a tty eg. ctrl+alt+f2. no need to stop X/kdm, but if you want to [13:45] <flaccid> o0Chris0o: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop | 04:55 |
| intelikey | genii has seen them too :) | 04:55 |
| genii | intelikey: 2 cables, one is same as FD cable width, the second is about that 16 | 04:55 |
| flaccid | um what sort of disks are these | 04:56 |
| intelikey | genii no it's smaller than fdd | 04:56 |
| flaccid | sata are quite small :p | 04:56 |
| intelikey | genii the fdd cable is about the size of both mfm cables togather | 04:56 |
| KWGoD | how do i change the audio in konsole? | 04:56 |
| KWGoD | and my Ark program doesnt work | 04:56 |
| flaccid | KWGoD: change audio how? | 04:57 |
| flaccid | KWGoD: alsamixer ? | 04:57 |
| KWGoD | thankyou | 04:57 |
| genii | intelikey: Yeah probably :) Been so long i forget | 04:58 |
| * intelikey turns around to see if the 5" mfm hdd is still lying in the floar behind him... | 04:58 | |
| o0Chris0o | that didn't work ;( | 04:58 |
| o0Chris0o | I I couldn't type after tty started | 04:59 |
| intelikey | nope got rid of it last week. | 04:59 |
| KWGoD | The utility unrar-free is not in your PATH. | 04:59 |

| KWGoD | someone help me fix that? | 04:59 |
| genii | intelikey: I think there were two types even of MFM, 20 and 34 as well | 04:59 |
| intelikey | KWGoD install it | 04:59 |
| intelikey | genii i couldn't argue that. | 05:00 |
| KWGoD | where at? | 05:00 |
| intelikey | package manager | 05:00 |
| intelikey | !apt | KWGoD | 05:01 |

| flaccid | o0Chris0o: ? | 05:01 |
| o0Chris0o | alright | 05:01 |
| o0Chris0o | it didnt' work | 05:01 |
| o0Chris0o | I want to shut down x and be able to type in console | 05:02 |
| o0Chris0o | but I am unable to do it | 05:02 |
| flaccid | o0Chris0o: specifically why can you not? | 05:02 |
| intelikey | how would you setup a file system where /usr was on nfs shared and /usr/local was on the local machine ? | 05:03 |
| sparr__ | the nfs /usr would need to have an empty local folder, and be mounted first | 05:04 |
| intelikey | you can mount a local on an nfs ? | 05:04 |
| flaccid | you could symlink on the remote fs i guess /usr/local -> /mnt/sdb1 for example | 05:05 |
| flaccid | i think you can | 05:05 |
| flaccid | i mean a symlink is just a pointer | 05:05 |
| sparr__ | symlink is VERY bad for that | 05:05 |
| flaccid | sparr__: what to do then | 05:05 |
| sparr__ | use mount | 05:05 |
| flaccid | i guess if its mounted after the first 1 it should be ok? | 05:06 |
| Idrogeno | hmm | 05:06 |
| intelikey | i'm trying to understand the "file system hierarchy" page it says that /usr/local is for local use only and many system have /usr on nfs for whole networks to use... just trying to see the logic in that... | 05:07 |
| Idrogeno | you could use a relative symlink I guess | 05:07 |
| Idrogeno | to get around the mount order | 05:07 |
| flaccid | try google? | 05:07 |
| intelikey | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview | 05:08 |
| intelikey | wops that page is patched. no /usr/local on it. | 05:10 |
| intelikey | :) | 05:10 |
| Ketrel | how can I stop X from starting automatically? | 05:10 |
| intelikey | my cached copy wasn't patched | 05:10 |
| intelikey | Ketrel remove the symlink in /etc/rc2.d/S???dm | 05:10 |
| intelikey | not sure that's "upstart"'s way of doing it. | 05:11 |
| Ketrel | intelikey: if I want it back, I'd remake that symlink? | 05:11 |
| dsmith_ | I'm stuck grrrr... my home directory is /mnt/home, the partition is /dev/sda4, fstab says /dev/sda4 /mnt/home ext3 defaults 0 2 Why isn't this working | 05:11 |
| intelikey | Ketrel yes | 05:12 |
| intelikey | Ketrel there is a script for that update-rc.d | 05:12 |
| Ketrel | intelikey: if I understand right, unlinking it will stop X from starting and running update-rc.d will put it back? | 05:13 |
| intelikey | Ketrel update-rc.d is a script that helps you remove/add symlinks in the rc#.d dirrectories | 05:14 |
| intelikey | you can do it by hand. rm /etc/rc2.d/S<tab>42gdm <<< the tab completion... and ln -s /etc/init.d/gdm /etc/rc2.d/S42gdm | 05:15 |
| genii | dsmith_: If you're using /mnt as root dir for /home then you need to tell system /home/myname is now /mnt/home/myname eg: sudo usermod -d /mnt/home/myname myname | 05:16 |
| Ketrel | intelikey I use KDE, so I'd substitute kdm? | 05:16 |
| intelikey | Ketrel yes. but i don't support kdm | 05:16 |
| intelikey | it's a personal thang | 05:17 |
| Ketrel | (I'm asking because I'm hit by the bug where I can't get to a terminal once X has started) | 05:17 |
| intelikey | disabling fbcon would probably be a better solution (note fbcon is used for the boot splash) | 05:18 |
| dsmith_ | seawolf, old redhat kernel name | 05:18 |
| dsmith_ | heh | 05:18 |
| dsmith_ | omg genii | 05:19 |
| Ketrel | how would that work? wouldn't kdm start anyway afterwards? | 05:19 |
| dsmith_ | I owe you big time | 05:19 |
| dsmith_ | genii: thanks a million | 05:19 |
| dsmith_ | its loading now finally | 05:19 |
| genii | dsmith_: :) You can make all new home dirs be created there from now on as well if you like | 05:20 |
| neo__ | why kde4 | 05:20 |
| neo__ | why isn't kde4's login manager work? | 05:20 |
| dsmith_ | genii it was the sudo usermod command that was holding me back | 05:21 |
| dsmith_ | I forgot about that one and have it stuffed in one of my books somewhere | 05:21 |
| intelikey | artical says http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d4e8fdaea | 05:21 |
| * intelikey jsut edits /etc/passwd for that... | 05:22 | |
| intelikey | and yes i know you can break things there. you can just as easily break things using usermod | 05:23 |
| * dsmith_ must now help at least 5-1 10 ppl to give back to the spirit of Linux | 05:25 | |
| dsmith_ | :) | 05:25 |
| dsmith_ | I did help one gal out in utah switch from vista to ubuntu.. even got her going to the Utah LUG | 05:26 |
| fildo | /j #fildo.org | 05:27 |
| genii | dsmith_: For all new users to be in /mnt/home edit /etc/adduser.conf to change /home to /mnt/home in there | 05:27 |

| Myrth[home] | hi, does anyone else need to restart networkmanager at least once a day because it takes up to 25% of 1GB RAM? | 05:36 |
| intelikey | yeah | 05:36 |
| T3 | after i did the kubuntu upgrade (up to 8.04) today, i'm facing 'frozen screen' when i close my notebook | 05:36 |
| dsmith_ | genii: should I just leave /home as is? | 05:36 |
| T3 | anybody heard about something like that? | 05:36 |
| intelikey | dsmith_ what are you doing with the new addressing of home/ ? | 05:36 |
| genii | dsmith_: In case the mount ever fails for /mnt/home you'll have a fallback. So yes | 05:36 |
| intelikey | mounting someihing to live in ? | 05:37 |
| dsmith_ | ok..] | 05:37 |
| T3 | it does not fail when i lock the screen | 05:37 |
| dsmith_ | eh? I just created apartition and moved my home dir to it thatsall | 05:37 |
| T3 | but only when i 'close' the laptop and open again | 05:37 |
| crazy_bus | how do I tell firefox-2, to open when I type firefox. As I think that's causing some problems in a OOo extension | 05:37 |
| dsmith_ | genii: whats the best way for file redundancy then if one partiton were to fail? | 05:37 |
| T3 | it stalls on black screen, but i can notice the system is working normally | 05:38 |
| T3 | looking at leds etc | 05:38 |
| intelikey | dsmith_ you can have it mount on /home if you want. or you can set your $HOME variable to /whatever/ and mount it there. linux i Xscreemly flexable that way | 05:38 |
| genii | dsmith_: Backups | 05:38 |
| T3 | also is possible to ctrl+alt+fX and open other terminal normally | 05:39 |
| * intelikey mounts hda / hdb /home hdc /var/www hdd /usr/local only thing that is tricky to use as a mountpoint is /etc and /lib | 05:40 | |
| intelikey | oh and /proc of course like duh | 05:40 |

| intelikey | t3 that hardy ? | 05:41 |
| intelikey | nevermind i see it is. | 05:42 |
| intelikey | t3 i know very little about hardy. can you reconfigure your xserver ? | 05:42 |
| intelikey | t3 or if you are using a propritary driver, reinstall it ? | 05:43 |
| T3 | intelikey: yes, is | 05:43 |
| intelikey | crazy_bus symlink it | 05:44 |
| intelikey | crazy_bus sudo ln -s /usr/bin/firefox-2 /usr/local/bin/firefox or something like that | 05:45 |
| crazy_bus | thanks intelikey | 05:46 |
| intelikey | well come | 05:46 |

| intelikey | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:46 |
| intelikey | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -plow | 05:46 |

| genii | intelikey: I understand. Had a 14 hour workday today. Sorta winding down now (trying to) | 05:50 |
| intelikey | 19.5 hour == long 14 = normal well almost 13.5 is normal | 05:51 |

| dwidmann | Umm, I've been getting random shutdowns lately, with no messages whatsoever, does anybody have any ideas how I can track down the cause? | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | guys | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | I don't want to be a noob anymore | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | so | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | I am going to install gentoo | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | and run fluxbox | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | I wanna learn | 05:57 |
| o0Chris0o | :) | 05:57 |
| o0Chris0o | sorry off topic convo | 05:57 |
| genii | o0Chris0o: Have fun :) | 05:57 |
| dwidmann | o0Chris0o: I have an idea for you that doesn't involve switching distros if you're interesting | 05:57 |
| neo__ | how long will gentoo installing take? | 05:57 |
| dwidmann | neo__: I heard the number "ten hours" from someone else, but it's highly dependent on your machine | 05:57 |
| intelikey | dwidmann he's not very interesting | 05:57 |
| robotgeek | dwidmann: take a look at output of dmesg | less | 05:57 |
| * robotgeek recommends linux from scratch :) | 05:58 | |
| o0Chris0o | dwidmann: whats the idea | 05:58 |
| dwidmann | o0Chris0o: install a minimal ubuntu system, with no gui, and try to survive for a week. | 05:58 |
| dwidmann | o0Chris0o: while still remaining productive | 05:59 |
| neo__ | 10 hours, not so bad | 05:59 |
| o0Chris0o | gnome enviroement? | 05:59 |
| neo__ | what about inside a virtual machine? | 05:59 |
| o0Chris0o | oh nvm | 05:59 |
| o0Chris0o | with no gui | 05:59 |
| robotgeek | it does not take 10 hours, they have binaries now. | 05:59 |
| o0Chris0o | and installers | 06:00 |
| o0Chris0o | from live cd | 06:00 |
| neo__ | sounds great. | 06:00 |
| o0Chris0o | http://www.gentoo.org | 06:00 |
| dwidmann | That sounds contradictory to the supposed benefits gentoo was supposed to offer :s | 06:01 |
| philsf | I just upgraded to hardy and noticed that in kmail (or kontact, fwiw) the keys +/- (next unread/prev unread) don't work anymore. Can anyone confirm this behaviour? | 06:02 |

| robotgeek | philsf: it works fine for me. | 06:04 |
| philsf | robotgeek: any idea what can I do to fix it? | 06:04 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: and dmesg.0 also - http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d6c972763 | 06:05 |
| robotgeek | philsf: does it work from the menu (Go -> Next Unread Message?) | 06:05 |
| philsf | robotgeek: yup | 06:05 |
| robotgeek | philsf: does it have the correct shortcuts listed next to them? | 06:05 |
| robotgeek | dwidmann: i don't see anything odd there, lemme see if i need to look at a different log file | 06:06 |
| philsf | robotgeek: yup, also | 06:06 |
| robotgeek | dwidmann: might be work looking at both the syslog and kernel.log (/var/log) | 06:07 |
| philsf | robotgeek: actually, I'm used to using the numpad + and - keys for this, but the + in the main pad works | 06:07 |
| neo__ | ~gentoo | 06:07 |

| flaccid | np | 06:11 |
| philsf | weird... | 06:13 |
| philsf | robotgeek: it's not kmail, at all | 06:13 |
| philsf | I an consistently crash X with any number in the numpad | 06:13 |

| robotgeek | amaafui: i suggest you read the help file in your computer (Kmenu-> help) | 06:17 |
| intelikey | amaafui ubuntu.com | 06:17 |
| genii | amaafui: http://ubuntuguide.org/ is very good although it is Gnome centric. | 06:17 |
| intelikey | gah-know-meh centric | 06:18 |
| dwidmann | It talks a lot about lawn ornaments? | 06:19 |
| intelikey | yeah that tooo | 06:19 |
| genii | amaafui: http://kubuntuguide.org/Hardy is not bad for KDE | 06:19 |
| genii | amaafui: For clarification, Gnome is the window manager (graphical interface) for regular Ubuntu, KDE is the window manager of Kubuntu | 06:21 |
| kennedy | :D | 06:21 |
| genii | And no lawn ornaments are involved | 06:21 |
| intelikey | oh that reminds me. i have an issue as most of you know, when i start a GUI it's usually blackbox. but; if i run nautilus in there i lose my menus. err i guess that's one for the other channel tho... | 06:22 |

| mrmonkeyman | where can I find the correct parameters for adding a secondary ext3 partitioned hard drive to fstab? | 06:24 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: that other pastebin was being a PITA, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9130/ | 06:25 |
| kubuntu | my kubuntu 8.04 keeps freezing | 06:25 |
| kubuntu | anyone have that ame problem | 06:25 |
| dwidmann | kubuntu: nope, mine's randomly resetting, completely different problem >.> | 06:25 |
| kubuntu | dwidman does it randomly reset while watching flash | 06:26 |
| kubuntu | mine freezes most while watching flash | 06:26 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: around line 124 I think | 06:26 |
| genii | mrmonkeyman: Something like UUID=57987654-f040-4ae4-93fc-b7ae8dabcdef6 /media/somename ext3 user,defaults,noauto 0 0 find the right uuid from output of: blkid and make the directory in /media you want to use in the fstab | 06:27 |
| intelikey | mrmonkeyman man mount man fstab and google.com or just ask in here :) | 06:28 |
| mike-kubunt1 | anyone with tips on a splash screen error or compiz not showing kde window decorations unless it is the active window? | 06:28 |
| genii | mrmonkeyman: You can change noauto to auto if you want it mounted each boot. Also manpage of fstab is informatove, as intelikey points out | 06:28 |
| mrmonkeyman | lol, thanks blkid is what i'm looking for | 06:28 |
| mike-kubunt1 | for some reason, i'm stuck in a text based boot, except for about 5 seconds at the very begging, no errors in console | 06:29 |
| intelikey | by "stuck" i assume that means you want out of there ? | 06:30 |
| mike-kubunt1 | intelikey: yes, i liked the cool blue kubuntu bar :' | 06:30 |
| intelikey | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -plow | 06:30 |
| intelikey | oh wait. | 06:30 |
| intelikey | let me re read that | 06:30 |
| robotgeek | dwidmann: brb | 06:30 |
| intelikey | !usplash | mike-kubunt1 | 06:31 |
| ubottu | mike-kubunt1: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 06:31 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: but wait, there's more ;) http://paste.ubuntu.com/9131/ -kern.log, around line 34 | 06:31 |
| intelikey | that's probably what you are asking about | 06:31 |
| mike-kubunt1 | yeah, but for some reason, its like it plays part of the usplash, then goes to verbose mode | 06:31 |
| mike-kubunt1 | you think reselecting will fix it? | 06:31 |
| genii | I think you either require more coffee, or more sleep but i'm not sure which ( intelikey ) | 06:32 |
| dsmith_ | gn all | 06:32 |
| intelikey | follow that link ^ | 06:32 |
| mrmonkeyman | I just converted 4 hard drives to ext3 without losing any data woohooo! | 06:32 |
| intelikey | genii i bu mmm well ok. | 06:32 |
| robotgeek | dwidmann: npviewer.bin is flash plugin process, i think | 06:32 |
| mike-kubunt1 | kk brb, gonna check if that did it ^ ^ | 06:33 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: hmm, come to think of it, konqueror 4.0.3 has some really nasty issues with that | 06:33 |
| intelikey | genii i thought he meant he was booting to a text login not that usplash was dropping out early on him... some times those kind of "i'm doing this and want that" messages are a little fuzzie !!! | 06:34 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: there, I just now disabled it in konqueror 4.0.3, but I wasn't anywhere near my computer when it mysteriously reset this last time | 06:34 |
| genii | intelikey: True, true :) | 06:34 |
| * genii slips intelikey more (spiked) coffee | 06:35 | |
| dwidmann | intelikey: don't blame yourself, it's the price others pay for being vague, by being vague they're practically begging you to interpret it however you please | 06:35 |
| intelikey | that'll clear it all up... hickup | 06:35 |
| genii | heh | 06:35 |
| robotgeek | dwidmann: that usb disconnect seemed to occur at an odd time | 06:36 |
| intelikey | dwidmann like "my ubuntu hurts, can anyone fix it for me? </super whine voice>" | 06:36 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: 00:56 is when I came back upstairs to see it asking for my encryption passphrase ... | 06:37 |
| mike-kubuntu | grr, it gives me a little of the usplash at the begining, a full one on shutdown | 06:37 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: come to think of things, my keyboard has been weird lately, and it's usb, I wonder. | 06:37 |
| mike-kubuntu | but a little way into startup, it jumps to *reading files needed to boot [ok] etc... | 06:37 |
| mike-kubuntu | could it be taking my apache 2 "warning" of set /etc/conf/saslsd, USESASL = YES to enable sasld | 06:38 |
| mike-kubuntu | that shouldn't be a seriouse issue though | 06:38 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu sounds like /etc/rc2.d/S98usplash is running to quickly maybe (race condition instigated by upstart) idk. | 06:39 |
| === moon is now known as STREENG | ||
| dwidmann | robotgeek: though, I did remove my flash drive a while ago ... | 06:40 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu or maybe you are loading a vidio driver and it's disabeling the fbcon <-- quite possable. | 06:40 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu what vidio chip ? | 06:41 |
| mike-kubuntu | nvidia 8600 gts | 06:42 |
| mike-kubuntu | G80 | 06:42 |
| intelikey | look and see if nvfb is blacklisted | 06:42 |
| intelikey | or nvidiafb | 06:43 |
| intelikey | which ever that is | 06:43 |
| mike-kubuntu | neither is | 06:43 |
| mike-kubuntu | it works on shutdown, which is wierd | 06:43 |
| mike-kubuntu | its like somethings pulling it out of the boot splash | 06:43 |
| mike-kubuntu | it does the part where the blue bar bounces back and forth, then cuts out when its supposed to slowly fill up | 06:43 |
| dwidmann | mike-kubuntu: most errors and/or input requests will make usplash disappear | 06:44 |
| intelikey | no. it's like something switching the gpu out of vga mode and loading drivers do that | 06:44 |
| intelikey | dmesg | less | 06:44 |
| robotgeek | dwidmann: i gotta go, sorry. | 06:45 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: aww :( later | 06:45 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: maybe later/ | 06:46 |
| dwidmann | robotgeek: I'll save those links | 06:46 |
| mike-kubuntu | hmm, i don't see anythign thats an error, closes i get is that hint from apache in case i want to turn on sasld | 06:46 |
| mike-kubuntu | i see NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 kernel module 169.12 Thu feb 14 17:51:09 pst 2008, follode by a ACPI: PCI Interrupt, could that be it? | 06:47 |
| intelikey | change the time that apache loads and see if it changes when it drops out of vga mode | 06:47 |
| mike-kubuntu | where can i find those boot up messeges? what is sasld, maybe if i enable it it'll go away | 06:48 |
| mike-kubuntu | not sure what it is though | 06:48 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu yes that could be it. that's what i was saying at first. but, that may not be it. | 06:48 |
| intelikey | to the NV Q ^ | 06:49 |
| intelikey | if it's the apache daemon that's doing it to you. just change the order of startup so that apache doesn't start until after gdm (kdm for those that "must" use it) | 06:50 |
| rich1 | can someone help me with setting a static ip and port forwarding, please? | 06:52 |
| mike-kubuntu | rich1: its all router dependent if your behind that | 06:52 |
| rich1 | mike-kubuntu: i'm using the actiontec dsl modem that qwest sent. | 06:53 |
| mrmonkeyman | Thanks to everyone that helped me tonight | 06:53 |
| mike-kubuntu | rich1: its dependent on their hardware, however, if you wanna try poking around, is all on the router side | 06:53 |
| mike-kubuntu | you need to set ip by mac adress | 06:53 |
| intelikey | rich1 how do you like qwest dsl ? if you don't mind my asking. | 06:54 |
| rich1 | ugghhh. this is all new to me. i guess more googling. | 06:54 |
| mike-kubuntu | you can find it out by doing a ifconfig -all, and then you probably wanna forward ports 20 22 21 and 80 | 06:54 |
| rich1 | intelikey: i guess it's ok. i have the 7.5mbps connections but bittornado only dls about 10-12kbs. | 06:54 |
| mike-kubuntu | intelikey: how do i change the start-up order of the events | 06:55 |
| intelikey | k. & ty for responding. | 06:56 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu the /etc/rc#.d/S##names changing the ## will change the order i would only move apache to something like 87 | 06:57 |
| mike-kubuntu | intelikey: right now its at 91 | 06:57 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu in rc2.d ? or rcS.d ? | 06:57 |
| martin | How do I hide a .desktop file (in /usr/share/applications) so that it does not appear in the menu for any user? E.g. the control panel that comes with Sun Java. I can of course delete it, but that's not so nice. | 06:58 |
| mike-kubuntu | /etc/rc2.d/S91apache2 | 06:58 |
| intelikey | hmmm that's not the cause. go back to looking at the nv driver as the culpret | 06:58 |
| sirmike1970md | hi all for reason i cant get my menu bar to pop back up any thoughts | 06:59 |
| intelikey | unless you are loading something like apache-mod in rcS.d that is ^ | 06:59 |
| rich1 | mike-kubuntu: sorry, but i don't see a mac address in ifconfig -a. | 06:59 |
| mike-kubuntu | rich1: its the HWaddr | 07:00 |
| intelikey | HWaddr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx | 07:00 |
| blankb | Does VirtualBox OSE work out of the box w/ 8.04? | 07:00 |
| rich1 | oooooh. ok thanks. | 07:00 |
| intelikey | yes and no blankb, more no than yes for most. | 07:01 |
| blankb | intelikey: thanks.... I will do a backup before I try installing it then. 8) | 07:02 |
| mike-kubuntu | NVRM attempts something at 55.250895, but then does it again at 99, somthing | 07:03 |
| mike-kubuntu | the 55 one is followed by a GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 18 ACPI PCI interupt | 07:03 |
| mike-kubuntu | besides that i don't see anyhing wierd though, not sure what it means | 07:03 |
| surplusxmas | My Kubuntu 8.04 AMD64 (KDE4 Remix) Alternate Install CD install fails at the step "Select and install software". I verified the md5sum after downloading, then ran the check integrity utility on the CD Itself, which came back valid. The CD was burned at 16x, my lowest speed available. My specs: Pentium D 3.00GHz, 1GB RAM, 300GB SATA HDD. This seems to be all over the forums but none of the threads can resolve this problem fo | 07:03 |
| surplusxmas | a different mirror, burned with a different burner (K3B on Slax this time instead of MagicISO on Windows XP). | 07:03 |
| intelikey | irq18 may be your vga interrupt you can check in /proc/interrupte and see | 07:04 |
| mike-kubuntu | intelikey: cat /proc/interupt | less ? | 07:04 |
| genii | surplusxmas: do alt-f4 to see what the install messages/errors may be | 07:05 |
| intelikey | less is not needed here.. you may have a long list, i dont' | 07:05 |
| genii | surplusxmas: alt-f1 to go back to main install screen | 07:05 |
| mike-kubuntu | intelikey: /proc/interupt doesnt exist supposedly | 07:05 |
| surplusxmas | genii: Here - http://surplusxmas.net/kubuntulog/ | 07:05 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu it's plural | 07:05 |
| intelikey | !tab | mike-kubuntu | 07:05 |
| ubottu | mike-kubuntu: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 07:05 |
| mike-kubuntu | intelikey: sorry, 18 is EMU10K1 | 07:06 |
| intelikey | even "M$ Windoze command prompt" now has tab completion | 07:06 |
| flaccid | ll | 07:06 |
| flaccid | lol even | 07:06 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu that would be a eth or ath card i think | 07:07 |
| genii | surplusxmas: The info there is not extremely helpful in finding out why the alternate cd is stalling. To find out what it's attempting to do or the process it's stalling on, when it stalls, do: alt-f4 to view the scrolling output of what the installer is doing. There may be some theme there which has informative information. | 07:07 |
| intelikey | mike-kubuntu ummm you might ask in #ubuntu seeing that i have told you just about all i can on that. and usplash is not DE related/specific | 07:08 |
| surplusxmas | genii: OK. It's actually this machine that I'm trying to install on - I'm on a Slax LiveCD right now, so it's impossible at the moment. Because of that, do you have any other suggestions that I can use during the same install attempt to take advantage of the install attempt? You know, since I have to go back and fourth. :) | 07:09 |
| mike-kubuntu | well, i don't mind the nongraphical boot as much as the window decorations dis appearing when compiz is launched except for the active window | 07:09 |
| mike-kubuntu | intelikey: thanks, i'll try there | 07:09 |
| intelikey | anyone know a map source for garmen gps units ? or a converter for map files ? | 07:10 |

| flaccid | where is ubotu? | 07:22 |
| intelikey | getting a face lift | 07:22 |
| intelikey | !ubottu | 07:23 |
| ubottu | Factoid ubottu not found | 07:23 |
| flaccid | ah | 07:23 |
| flaccid | is there anywhere i can look up the most popular ubotu factoids? | 07:23 |
| flaccid | or has the project done studies on the popular support requests/issues? | 07:23 |
| intelikey | !logs | 07:24 |
| ubottu | Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ - For LoCo channels, http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/ | 07:24 |
| intelikey | ? | 07:24 |
| flaccid | i guess logs aint going to grep out the frequent stuff | 07:24 |
| intelikey | !factoids | 07:25 |
| ubottu | I am ubottu, standing in for ubotu while he's getting his haircut done, nose powdered, updated and transitioned to his new, gorgeous looks in the near future ;) | 07:25 |
| flaccid | !dkfjdsklf | 07:25 |
| ubottu | Factoid dkfjdsklf not found | 07:25 |
| flaccid | hmm | 07:25 |
| intelikey | anyway wherever the factoid list is you could for Q in `somthign to put the list here` ;do echo "$Q `grep -c $Q channel.log`" ;done | 07:27 |
| flaccid | intelikey: yeah i searched google and i can't find the factoids anymore, its like its 404 on a .nl site.. | 07:27 |
| flaccid | i want to identify the holes in our support etc. | 07:27 |
| intelikey | hmmm | 07:27 |
| intelikey | flaccid vidio and audio and minor networking | 07:28 |
| intelikey | thoes are the major sore spots | 07:28 |
| flaccid | yep plus i guess samba | 07:28 |
| flaccid | trying to see if there are more major ones | 07:29 |
| flaccid | wondering if its possible to come up with generic troubleshooting processes for things like these eg. 'my audio doesn't work out of box' | 07:29 |
| mike-kubuntu | where can i find the md5sums for the dvd i386 release | 07:30 |
| flaccid | thats a good question | 07:31 |
| intelikey | flaccid i don't see why not. #alsa can even help on that. they use scripts | 07:31 |
| flaccid | they use scripts? | 07:32 |
| intelikey | flaccid yes for gathering information on problem systems | 07:32 |
| intelikey | you join there and they tell you dl and run this... give me the url... | 07:32 |
| flaccid | interesting, thanks i'll investigate | 07:33 |
| intelikey | welcome | 07:33 |
| intelikey | not sure about #xorg but you might hit a good idea there too. | 07:34 |
| flaccid | yeah. lots of thinking to do here | 07:34 |
| intelikey | may require some thinking drinking.... | 07:34 |
| flaccid | yeah | 07:35 |
| flaccid | i ran out of milk so im on long blacks | 07:35 |

| ubuntu_ | hi all . I am first time using kubuntu. How do I get jre installed for FireFox, so that I can play java games ? | 07:41 |
| flaccid | !java | ubuntu_ | 07:42 |
| ubottu | ubuntu_: 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. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) or earlier. | 07:42 |
| flaccid | ubuntu_: most people will want to install kubuntu-restricted-extras which gives java plus other common wants | 07:42 |
| manossss | hello, i am doing an installation after i broke my system :) . What do you think about this partition scheme? swap:512,/ 30G,/home 45 G, /data 45 G ? 30 G for / is good? | 07:43 |
| flaccid | whats /data? | 07:43 |
| ubuntu_ | ok I am running live right now, have not installed onto hrd drive quite yet, just wanted to get the hang of it first | 07:43 |
| flaccid | ubuntu_: coolio | 07:43 |
| manossss | flaccid : it's like another partition.. it can also be in /media.. it's just another partition.. | 07:45 |
| manossss | i don't know about / .. | 07:45 |
| === shoosh is now known as shooshc | ||
| === shooshc is now known as shoosh | ||
| ere4si | 10G for / is heaps | 07:45 |
| manossss | ere4si: so, 10 G is enough for / ? i don't want / to be full.. can lead to bad stuff! | 07:46 |
| flaccid | manossss: well thats probably not the best way to do it but cool... | 07:46 |
| * intelikey normally uses 4g / | 07:47 | |
| flaccid | manossss: the / depends on things like spooling as there is no separate /var | 07:47 |
| ere4si | the install is only 3G or so | 07:47 |
| flaccid | if its a mail or print server, / may need to be large for example unless using in /home like maildir | 07:47 |
| flaccid | intelikey: what other servers do users install on desktops a lot like samba? | 07:48 |
| flaccid | i guess x11vnc | 07:48 |
| manossss | yes, that is why i'm 'afraid' of giving to litle space for /.. i don't want /tmp to fill my partition and then my system will not be good.. Maybe 5 G ? | 07:48 |
| flaccid | manossss: what are the roles of this puter? | 07:49 |
| intelikey | flaccid ftp but don't ask why | 07:49 |
| flaccid | intelikey: ah yeah so openssh-server for sftp and something else for insecure | 07:49 |
| LamerMan | guys, is it worth now to switch to kde4? is it stable enough? :) | 07:49 |
| manossss | flaccid: I work on this computer. no servers (even ssh), i have my server for these stuff.. No big games | 07:50 |
| manossss | my desktop+my production machine | 07:50 |
| intelikey | yeah vsftp even | 07:50 |
| ubuntu_ | one more quick question, if I may. When I install things while running live, then decide to install onto the hard drive, do the extra things I just installed also get installed onto the harddrive, or do I have to install them again after? | 07:50 |
| manossss | 'production':i study | 07:50 |
| flaccid | manossss: in that case 5G should be enough unless you install heeeaps of apps | 07:51 |
| ere4si | ubuntu_: you have to reinstall them | 07:51 |
| ubuntu_ | ok thank you | 07:51 |
| intelikey | manossss i might even ask why you are "partitioning" it... could give the disk to / if you have a backup server then nothing gets full | 07:51 |
| flaccid | intelikey: i guess insecure is only recommended in the case where the client doesn't have sftp support, which means they should change to winscp if on windows :) | 07:51 |
| intelikey | yes | 07:52 |
| dwidmann | what does it take to get recordmydesktop working in hardy? It dies with some sort of "locking assertion failure" :( | 07:52 |
| ere4si | with a separate /home fresh installs are easier | 07:52 |
| flaccid | intelikey: any other servers you can think of that are common for desktop users | 07:52 |
| manossss | intelikey : i am installing from a system failure.. so, i want /home seperete this time.. | 07:52 |
| flaccid | i wonder why the installer doesn't advise a separate home, i would of thought that would be a good practice | 07:53 |
| manossss | flaccid for real! | 07:53 |
| flaccid | hopefully im real :) | 07:53 |
| manossss | :) | 07:54 |
| flaccid | manossss: actually im a power user and have a 40G / but use over 6GB. maybe a 10GB is wise manossss | 07:54 |
| dwidmann | flaccid: I think it's planned | 07:54 |
| flaccid | dwidmann: coolio | 07:54 |
| flaccid | an option for separate /var and /usr would be mad as well... | 07:55 |
| manossss | flaccid 10 G is what i'm thinking of using. it's a 120 G drive so, 10 is not so much.. i think a seperate /home is enough | 07:56 |
| manossss | :) | 07:56 |
| surplusxmas | My AMD64 Kubuntu 8.04 (KDE4 Remix) Alternte Install CD fails at "Select and install software". The CD is fully valid/integrity checked. I looked in the console after the failure message was given and I saw the following: "WARNING**: Configuring 'pkgsel' failed with error code 1" and "WARNING**: Menu item 'pkgsel' failed." What does this mean and how can I fix it? | 07:56 |
| flaccid | manossss: yep exactly. im on a 120GB notebook hdd and apply same sort of principle | 07:56 |
| flaccid | surplusxmas: did you try google? | 07:56 |
| dwidmann | surplusxmas: maybe it's just trying to download things ....... that's what happened to me, if you use the expert mode on the alternate installer it'll let you skip that | 07:57 |
| intelikey | flaccid not really. most people are just running httpd (a private web page or two) sshd (which smarter people use with konqurer and fish://) X11vnc (shared desktops) samba & cupsysd and a few even dare the less common private mailbox daemon of choice but that's not common. | 07:57 |
| surplusxmas | Yes, it was unusually unfriendly. | 07:57 |
| surplusxmas | What's the difference between this and expert mode? | 07:57 |
| manossss | and i think 512 swap @ beggining is enough.. i never use swap anyway.. | 07:57 |
| dwidmann | surplusxmas: flexibility, user controll, the ability to know what's going on | 07:57 |
| flaccid | intelikey: ok cool thanks for the input. i think i might start recommending the web server applet for basic http then apache for users that actually are devs or whatever | 07:58 |
| surplusxmas | dwidmann: I don't consider myself an "expert," but I'll try it out. Thanks for your suggestion. :) | 07:58 |
| flaccid | manossss: depends how much ram you have | 07:58 |
| intelikey | flaccid and i'm lagging about a minute now. | 07:58 |
| flaccid | hehe dang intell | 07:58 |
| manossss | i have 1.2 G | 07:59 |
| flaccid | make it 1.2GB just in case your puter needs it in peak use | 07:59 |
| manossss | mm.. | 07:59 |
| flaccid | linux manages memory well so increasing swap size is no detriment.. | 07:59 |
| manossss | i never really use swap.. would a bigger swap also make it slower? | 08:00 |
| intelikey | slightly larger than ram will allow suspend to disk | 08:00 |
| flaccid | nah ^^ | 08:00 |
| intelikey | sorry that's gonna be late. | 08:00 |
| flaccid | windows will love using swap when ram is still available. generally linux only uses swap when out of ram | 08:01 |
| manossss | mm.. so, when i have a smaller than my ram swap, i cannot suspent to disk? | 08:01 |
| dwidmann | manossss: if you're not going to suspend to disk and you have enough ram that you never run out, then swap mostly just wastes disk space (which may or may not be precious | 08:01 |
| manossss | i usually suspent to ram.. but i still want to have the option.. and for 1 G.. i think it's ok | 08:02 |
| dwidmann | manossss: suspend to disk basically just dumps what's in your ram to the swap, so you have to have more swap than ram to suspend. | 08:02 |
| intelikey | The maximum useful | 08:02 |
| intelikey | size of a swap area now depends on the architecture. It is roughly 2GiB on i386, PPC, | 08:02 |
| intelikey | m68k, ARM, 1GiB on sparc, 512MiB on mips, 128GiB on alpha and 3TiB on sparc64. | 08:02 |
| intelikey | man mkswap | 08:02 |
| flaccid | i generally never go over 2048MB swap which kind of matches that theory sweet | 08:03 |
| manossss | dwidmann i didn't knew.. so even if i use part of my memory, i would need the space to copy ALL my memory.. (even 0s) | 08:03 |
| * intelikey never uses swap period. | 08:04 | |
| dwidmann | which reminds me, I need to spring for that extra 2GiB of RAM | 08:04 |
| flaccid | intelikey: you have lots of ram? | 08:04 |
| intelikey | Memory Used/Total Percent: 61/503 MB (12%) | 08:05 |
| noisekiller | Morning all | 08:05 |
| intelikey | Swap Used/Total Percent: 0/0 MB (0%) | 08:05 |
| intelikey | i don't use a lot of ram. | 08:05 |
| flaccid | are you not running X ? 61MB is not much | 08:05 |
| manossss | what do you think of: swap:1.4(ram 1.2),/ 10, /home 50,/data 50 ? | 08:06 |
| flaccid | sounds good to me manossss | 08:06 |
| intelikey | ummm let me check i don't think so right now. | 08:06 |
| intelikey | no no X atm | 08:06 |
| flaccid | cool | 08:07 |
| manossss | :) i'm going with it.. | 08:07 |
| manossss | thanx | 08:07 |
| intelikey | but i do have a lot going on right now. several consoles busy | 08:08 |

| intelikey | dwidmann idk could be me. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d21aeaac3 <<< is that it ? if so the first uncommented line is where you set the url. | 08:20 |
| intelikey | dwidmann try s/us/ca/ maybe ? | 08:21 |
| intelikey | i've never had any problem with the site. but then again, that's normal. | 08:22 |

| flaccid | yeah that would make a diff | 09:20 |
| Trophyhead | k thx, guess I'd be better off buying a new computer than a good card that won't help with a low sys bus = ) | 09:21 |
| flaccid | sorry what is 133mhz? | 09:21 |
| flaccid | the ram? what type of ram is it? SDRAM? | 09:22 |
| Trophyhead | the memory bus, I guess, system bus, | 09:22 |
| flaccid | they are different | 09:23 |
| flaccid | FSB != memory bus | 09:23 |
| === gabriel_ is now known as Gabz | ||
| flaccid | if its p4 its doesn't have a 133mhz fsb... | 09:23 |
| flaccid | not much you can do if your computer has old ram slots. still the difference in speed it not necessarily dramatic | 09:24 |
| Trophyhead | hmm, ill take a look at the utilty screen again, I see alot of videos cards say 300 mhz, & because my sys bus is only 133mhz figured it won't perform as well as it could | 09:25 |
| Trophyhead | it has only a x4 agp slot | 09:26 |
| flaccid | um are you sure your system bus is 133mhz. i mean hate to point out the obvious, but of course a new computer is going to be faster.. | 09:26 |
| Trophyhead | well at least thats what kubuntu reads it as | 09:26 |
| flaccid | p4 is usually up to 800mhz for bus.. | 09:27 |
| flaccid | read what as exactly, where? what part of kubuntu? | 09:27 |
| flaccid | what application in kubuntu? | 09:27 |
| Trophyhead | when i bought a video card & looked at it in the K-info center program it said x4, tho the card was up to x8 | 09:28 |

| Trophyhead | yes | 09:29 |
| flaccid | agp is dead now, its pci-x | 09:29 |
| Trophyhead | ya true, the fastest | 09:30 |
| flaccid | but where in kinfocenter does it say 133mhz ? | 09:30 |
| Trophyhead | oh not there on the IBM utilty screen, where you can see a summery of the system | 09:31 |
| flaccid | you have to find out what bus its actually talking about... | 09:31 |
| flaccid | p4 is usually 533mhz, 400 or 800 and p3 was 133mhz.. | 09:32 |
| Trophyhead | i think it said either memory bus, or system bus, I'll go check & reboot | 09:32 |
| flaccid | ok. i mean if you are using old sdram which is 133mhz then yeah, but i would expect most p4 motherboards to have ddr slots | 09:32 |
| Trophyhead | oh dam, then I was scammed on this pc yet another way = ( the motherboard had been changed, probably for the pentium 3 = ( | 09:33 |
| Trophyhead | if its 133 | 09:33 |
| flaccid | Trophyhead: well i would advise checking kinfocenter and places to see what exactly you have | 09:33 |
| flaccid | eg. cat /proc/cpuinfo | 09:33 |
| Trophyhead | ya im going to thx = ) | 09:34 |
| jeremy_ | hey, i need help with WEP please? | 09:34 |
| flaccid | np | 09:34 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: whats the problem? | 09:34 |
| jeremy_ | i have my network goin on the windows computers, but it wont work with kubuntu unless i make it unsecured | 09:35 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: why, what happens? | 09:35 |
| flaccid | are you using knetworkmanager, jeremy_ ? | 09:35 |
| ere4si | !wep | 09:35 |
| ubottu | WEP is totally insecure, don't use it, the full Wireless Documentation for Ubuntu can be found at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 09:35 |
| flaccid | true. you should be using WPA unless your router cannot support it via firmware upgrade (if needed) | 09:36 |
| jeremy_ | yea i heard it was pretty average, but really just want it to stop my neighbours using my network, no ones gonna bother trying to hack it | 09:36 |
| flaccid | wep is crackable in a few seconds | 09:36 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: use WPA> | 09:36 |
| jeremy_ | yea i use knetworkmanager but it just says unable to connect | 09:36 |
| === nick_ is now known as NickW | ||
| SlimeyPete | wep's OK if your neighbours aren't tech-savvy | 09:36 |
| flaccid | until someone wardrives you | 09:37 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: so can you use WPA ? | 09:37 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah, but the chances of that vary depending on your location | 09:37 |
| jeremy_ | i gave it a go with the router but it wouldnt save the settings for some reason | 09:37 |
| flaccid | why take a risk? | 09:37 |
| jeremy_ | my options were wpa 801.1x or ascii pass or hex pass | 09:38 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: i would advise working out why its a problem. probably because you were mismatching asii passphrase and key. | 09:38 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: pastebin /etc/network/interfaces please | 09:38 |
| flaccid | you want WPA-PSK with passphrase in ascii. | 09:38 |
| jeremy_ | pastebin? | 09:38 |
| flaccid | !pastebin | jeremy_ | 09:39 |
| ubottu | jeremy_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 09:39 |
| jeremy_ | i dont think my router does wpa-psk | 09:39 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: or TKIP | 09:39 |
| flaccid | just select the one for passhprase and hopefully it should look after the rest | 09:40 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: what make/model is the router? | 09:40 |
| jeremy_ | auto lo | 09:40 |
| jeremy_ | iface lo inet loopback | 09:40 |
| jeremy_ | address 127.0.0.1 | 09:40 |
| jeremy_ | netmask 255.0.0.0 | 09:40 |
| jeremy_ | thats the interfaces file, not much to it | 09:41 |
| jeremy_ | its a dlink 604g | 09:41 |
| jeremy_ | g604t sorry | 09:41 |
| flaccid | pastebin jeremy_! | 09:41 |
| jeremy_ | oh sorry i thought it was small enough | 09:41 |
| jeremy_ | oh an sorry again my router does do psk | 09:42 |
| jeremy_ | i can choose psk hex or psk string | 09:42 |
| flaccid | please attempt the wpa psk which is secure. i mean so far looks like no problem. likely dlink as they are pretty bad quality usually | 09:42 |
| flaccid | psk string is what you want | 09:42 |
| flaccid | which will convert to hex for you.. | 09:43 |
| jeremy_ | any rules for the string? 8 character minimum right? | 09:43 |
| ere4si | there's no net in that "paste" | 09:43 |
| flaccid | ere4si: there shouldn't be any net in it as its done on the user level with knetworkmanager | 09:44 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: yes 8 min please | 09:44 |
| ere4si | k | 09:44 |
| jeremy_ | k just trying that now | 09:44 |
| jeremy_ | although the browser just seems to freeze when i clcik 'save details and reboot modem' | 09:45 |
| flaccid | jeremy_: yeah can be typical of bad routers | 09:45 |
| jeremy_ | yea its a piece of crap haha | 09:46 |
| flaccid | totally. i put dlink in my shitlist years ago. now for soho appliance routers i only use linksys wrt-54gl or similar | 09:46 |
| jeremy_ | ill try do it in the advanced user mode | 09:47 |
| jeremy_ | brb | 09:47 |
| jeremy_ | is group key interval important? | 09:47 |
| jeremy_ | what is that? | 09:47 |
| flaccid | im not sure what that is. should just use the first key.. | 09:48 |
| jeremy_ | k ill give it a go now | 09:48 |
| flaccid | k | 09:48 |
| jeremy_ | it doesnt seem to keep the wpa string | 09:50 |
| jeremy_ | ill press apply and itll just clear the field | 09:51 |
| flaccid | which browser? | 09:51 |
| jeremy_ | konquerer | 09:51 |
| flaccid | dlink probably got invalid code | 09:51 |
| flaccid | try firefox and failing that Internet Explorer on windows if available | 09:51 |
| jeremy_ | ill go get ie, prolly easiest bet | 09:52 |
| flaccid | yeah, thats what they code it for because like most firmware makers they totally ignore web standards | 09:52 |
| jeremy_ | yea it sucks | 09:54 |
| flaccid | any luck but? | 09:55 |
| flaccid | i mean i would re-flash the firmware on it with latest myself | 09:55 |
| jeremy_ | ive tried with ubuntu before but kinda gave up, but decided to give it a more serious effort this time | 09:55 |
| jeremy_ | jus stating up another laptop with windows | 09:55 |
| flaccid | cool | 09:55 |
| flaccid | yeah in this case it appears ubuntu is fine :) | 09:56 |
| ubuntu | algum brasileiro ? | 09:57 |
| jeremy_ | oh k, its sticking now, ill reboot the router then give it a go | 09:57 |

| dresnu | quicktime and realmedia are a pain to play... | 13:35 |
| dresnu | only mplayer is able to open really everything | 13:35 |
| Dr_willis | thats why i tend to use mplayer :) | 13:35 |
| dresnu | but has such an ugly integration to kde... | 13:35 |
| Dr_willis | Never noticed dresnu :) 'integeration' is such a buzz word that seems to tossed about so much. and mean so little. | 13:36 |
| shadowbox | I cant preview QT on apples site | 13:36 |
| dresnu | ok, but I prefer kaffeine as a player | 13:37 |
| dresnu | I like its features, but it doesn't work unfortunately with the mplayer engine (never understood why though) | 13:37 |
| shadowbox | hey wow, did I miss the release of 8.04? oh, or is that just Ubuntu? | 13:38 |
| dresnu | you probably missed it.. | 13:39 |
| Jucato | shadowbox: you missed it | 13:39 |
| Faust-C | lol | 13:39 |
| dresnu | it's out there, go grab it! | 13:39 |
| shadowbox | ahh, man | 13:39 |
| shadowbox | anyone here using it? | 13:40 |
| jussio1 | most of us... | 13:40 |
| shadowbox | lol, thanks | 13:40 |
| Dr_willis | Been under a rock for the last month? :) | 13:42 |

| falloppio | Hello there! | 13:43 |
| shadowbox | I'm opening up a computer store that will (fingers crossed) be the largest in ECity , NC | 13:43 |
| dresnu | and you will sell linux preinstalled? | 13:44 |
| shadowbox | and the ONLY one that will be offering Linux only line of PC's (Kubuntu) | 13:44 |
| shadowbox | thats the plan, yes | 13:44 |
| dresnu | alright! :-D | 13:45 |
| dresnu | good luck then! | 13:45 |
| shadowbox | thanks | 13:45 |
| shadowbox | hey what do you think of the name? Byte Me Computers | 13:46 |
| shadowbox | hehe, I thought it was catchy | 13:46 |
| shadowbox | we will be online in a day or two and growing daily | 13:47 |

| ubottu | #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! | 13:47 |
| dresnu | others have had the same idea i guess: http://bytemeusa.com/store/index.php http://www.byteme.com.au/ | 13:48 |
| dresnu | and that's you probably: http://mybytecomputers.com/ | 13:48 |
| shadowbox | sorry, it all stemed from offering preinstalled linux pcs | 13:48 |
| shadowbox | actually no | 13:48 |
| shadowbox | lol | 13:48 |
| dresnu | hehe | 13:48 |
| Dr_willis | walmart has the $200 pc with linux :) | 13:49 |
| shadowbox | yeah hard to beat | 13:49 |
| shadowbox | but can do a $225 | 13:49 |
| Dr_willis | Ive not seen one in a local walmart yet. - | 13:50 |
| dresnu | will you offer some kind of aftermarket service? | 13:50 |
| shadowbox | dont think you will | 13:50 |
| shadowbox | yes | 13:50 |
| dresnu | ok, then that's somewhere you can compete | 13:50 |
| shadowbox | as long as WM has had those$200 pc's (and selling out regularly) they are still timid on putting them in the stores. | 13:51 |
| shadowbox | Kubuntu PC's will actually be in the show room for demo | 13:52 |
| Dr_willis | with a big ICON on the middle of the desktop leading.. here! :) | 13:53 |
| shadowbox | and plans are to have one machine that will be a media pc w/ 32" HDTV for support (of course) :o) | 13:53 |
| shadowbox | heck yeah | 13:53 |
| shadowbox | I might get with you guys on how to compile a complete package on one dvd for installation | 13:55 |
| shadowbox | I will also be giving away Kubuntu oo.o and other popular software on CD on demand | 13:56 |

| polysilicon | I am finding it very difficult to enable vertical scrolling on my laptop touchpad. Does anybody know how to do it exactly? someone told me that i should define scrollable area on touchpad, how to do that? | 13:59 |
| chx | I tried to google without much success. Where can I read about the svn+ssh kioslave? | 13:59 |
| shadowbox | polysilicon: the right side of your finger pad close to the edge | 13:59 |
| canen | hello | 14:00 |
| polysilicon | shadowbox, yes but how to define the area? | 14:00 |
| shadowbox | oh, it should already be defined | 14:01 |
| canen | anyone familiar with the issue of the "kded [kdeinit] --new-startup" taking 100% of CPU on first start up? | 14:01 |
| canen | only seems to happen if kopete or kcheckgmail is set to startup on login | 14:01 |
| polysilicon | shadowbox, yes but when I try to scroll the pointer moves which means synaptics driver is not configured for vertical scrolling... | 14:03 |
| polysilicon | the area is not acting as scrollable | 14:03 |
| shadowbox | gotcha | 14:03 |
| shadowbox | polysilicon: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-485289.html | 14:03 |
| polysilicon | great! thanks | 14:04 |
| polysilicon | I hope it should work now | 14:04 |

| Dr_willis | I cen burn ONE disk/dvd/cd - and then the cd/dvd just 'vanishes' from the system. :) like some deep kernel issue is going on. | 14:18 |

| joseph | do you notice any better functionality? | 14:57 |
| joseph | any performance difference? | 14:57 |
| Dr_willis | I perfer to Update Not upgrade. :) | 14:58 |
| joseph | Dr_willis: can you elaborate on that? | 14:58 |
| Dr_willis | From what i gather in the irc rooms. Many upgraders have had issues with.. wireless, video, sound, and.. a few other bits | 14:58 |
| joseph | ok | 14:58 |
| nicolas | some problem here with Wifi right | 14:58 |
| Dr_willis | I mean i tend to do Clean reinstalls.. :) heh. | 14:58 |
| kblin | joseph: dunno, I mostly upgraded to get KVM support and virt-manager working | 14:58 |
| joseph | Dr_willis: yeah, see that's why i'm dragging my feet on upgrading. if it ain't broke, why fix it? | 14:59 |
| joseph | kblin: virt-manager? | 14:59 |
| nicolas | but these issues are usual issues coming with the few days after upgrade no? | 14:59 |
| joseph | !virt-manager | 14:59 |
| ubottu | Factoid virt-manager not found | 14:59 |
| kblin | joseph: a python GUI for managing qemu and Xen virtual machines | 14:59 |
| joseph | ah | 14:59 |
| joseph | why not use VirtualBox? | 15:00 |
| pippoZ | hi all | 15:01 |
| kblin | joseph: because networking in virtualbox sucks | 15:01 |
| nicolas | hi | 15:01 |
| joseph | kblin: ok, that's a good reason. and vm-manager doesn't work in gutsy? | 15:01 |
| kblin | joseph: it's not even installable, some of the deps don't exist | 15:02 |
| joseph | kblin: k | 15:02 |
| kblin | so even building it manually is a bit of a pain | 15:02 |
| joseph | kblin: what platform do you usually launch from vm-manager? windows? | 15:02 |
| kblin | yeah. and a couple of linux test boxes | 15:03 |
| potty | is kde more lighta den ubuntu? | 15:03 |
| joseph | potty: it's a matter of personal preference, actually. | 15:04 |
| Dr_willis | potty, about the same - if you want LIGHT - go with xfce, or some minimal window manager. | 15:05 |
| potty | I was juz wondering as gnome gets more heavy every release | 15:05 |
| Dr_willis | and its Still missing soooo many features... | 15:07 |
| Dr_willis | make ya wonder where its growing at. | 15:07 |
| kblin | well, I haven't tried KDE 4 yet, but I'd be surprised if that got any lighter | 15:07 |
| Dr_willis | kde4 is a total new animal. :) so its hard to tell. | 15:07 |
| Dr_willis | Lightness of a desktop is not that huge a demand these days.. theres plenty of alternatives if you want light i guess. | 15:08 |
| potty | it is for vista =) | 15:08 |
| kblin | xubuntu is really nice for that. I run it in a couple of VMs where I want to have a GUI | 15:09 |
| potty | vista drained 600MB just idleing | 15:09 |

| MetaMorfoziS | hi all | 16:08 |
| leftbas | hi | 16:09 |
| MetaMorfoziS | how can i get libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 ? | 16:09 |
| MetaMorfoziS | i get error "error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" from a program | 16:09 |
| leftbas | add it from adept | 16:09 |
| hydrogen | no. | 16:09 |
| MetaMorfoziS | but no package that contains this file | 16:09 |
| leftbas | just launch it, and type the library name in the filter | 16:09 |
| hydrogen | You need to recompile the program | 16:09 |
| hydrogen | against a modern version of gcc | 16:09 |
| hydrogen | I assume you updated from an older version of kubuntu? | 16:10 |
| MetaMorfoziS | no | 16:10 |
| leftbas | right click and request an install | 16:10 |
| MetaMorfoziS | and any other way | 16:10 |
| hydrogen | or downloaded the binary off the internet? | 16:10 |
| hydrogen | leftbas: No. No. No. | 16:10 |
| MetaMorfoziS | yes | 16:10 |
| leftbas | hydrogen: why not? he didn't say he already had a version of it | 16:10 |
| hydrogen | then you need to find a binary designed to work for kubuntu hardy | 16:10 |
| SlimeyPete | he's definitely already got a version | 16:11 |
| leftbas | oh...sorry then | 16:11 |
| SlimeyPete | it's critical to the operation of much of k/ubuntu | 16:11 |
| SlimeyPete | but you weren't to know :) | 16:11 |
| hydrogen | SlimeyPete: a version _incompatible_ with the version the program was compiled against | 16:11 |
| SlimeyPete | hydrogen: yes | 16:11 |
| SlimeyPete | indeed. | 16:11 |
| SlimeyPete | I was answering leftbas :) | 16:11 |
| hydrogen | and he has a version of libstdc++, not a version of libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 | 16:11 |
| MetaMorfoziS | i can't recompile it and i can't get other version | 16:12 |
| MetaMorfoziS | so i need that libstdc something | 16:12 |
| hydrogen | then you can't use that program | 16:12 |
| MetaMorfoziS | if it's possible | 16:12 |
| MetaMorfoziS | :( | 16:12 |
| leftbas | what are you trying to run that doesn't like the version you already have? | 16:13 |

| doctorwhite | i dont see the release notes. i just want to see the what pkgs are included. | 17:29 |
| monkeybritches | mohi: And you have apt-cdrom installed? I can see how if you didn't it would try to get it remotely and might give you that message, but I would think it should be there by default. | 17:30 |
| mohi | what does "should the hosts and hostname be equal" mean? | 17:30 |
| mohi | monkeybritches: yes. I can run them without sudo | 17:31 |

| bleaked | sloth: sorry for the late response, was distracted.. well isn't it necessary to 'safely remove' external devices to maintain data integrity? i really don't know much about the mounting process versus the eject process, but if the option exists, it seems necessary.. that said, mounting/unmounting works just fine, it's the 'safely remove' / eject feature that causes the errors. | 18:40 |
| monkeybritches | You could use a VNC connection | 18:40 |
| Arkard | i have a problem with my Microphone, no one can hear me | 18:40 |
| monkeybritches | I'm still looking to see what the equivalent for Netmeeting would be... | 18:40 |
| monkeybritches | Anyone, feel free to chime in if you know the answer :) | 18:40 |

| Arkard | how can i activate the mic boost? | 18:45 |
| monkeybritches | I should have asked a more pointed question. :) | 18:46 |
| monkeybritches | I thought it was a checkbox | 18:46 |
| kblin | it's in kmix | 18:46 |
| kblin | in the "switches" tab | 18:46 |
| Arkard | i cannot monkeybritches, i cannot turn up the volume of the MIC BOOST | 18:46 |
| monkeybritches | Hit Alt-F2 and type 'kmix' | 18:47 |
| aLeSD | and now how can I active compiz ? | 18:47 |
| aLeSD | wow kde is faster than gnome | 18:47 |
| aLeSD | a lot faster | 18:47 |
| Arkard | ready | 18:47 |
| monkeybritches | aLeSD: Did you go to System > Desktop Effects ? | 18:47 |

| trappist | Datz: I just did konqueror file:///home/trappist/Documents and it worked fine | 19:04 |
| combo | trappist: upss... it looks i still use KDE 3.5.8 in kub-7.10 :/ | 19:04 |
| trappist | combo: that's the default. there's a kubuntu "remix" I think they called it that ships with kde4, and I think you can install the packages from the kubuntu.org repository | 19:05 |
| combo | trappist: is this worth of that? i mean is KDE4 much better than KDE 3.x.x ? :D | 19:06 |
| Datz | trappist, I want to open a directory, but not in the browser, so I can change some things | 19:06 |
| Datz | thanks, though | 19:06 |
| LimCore | why KUbuntu shiped XGL that have like 20 crash reports? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xgl/+bugs | 19:07 |
| trappist | combo: last time I tried it (early beta) I couldn't deal with it. I'm sure it's much better now - there are a lot of inherent improvements, now it's just a matter of filling in functionality holes | 19:07 |
| LimCore | can I upgrade to other version of xgl? | 19:07 |
| trappist | Datz: not in the browser? just cd to it... or am I still misunderstanding you | 19:07 |
| combo | trappist: can i install KDE4 with Adept Manager? :) | 19:07 |
| Datz | trappist, ah, ok I will cd it then | 19:07 |
| trappist | combo: I would imagine if you have the appropriate repositories enabled, yes | 19:08 |
| lupinderwolf | what's about? | 19:08 |

| trappist | LimCore: almost all packages have bugs. some of them have lots and lots of bugs. for most of us, they work just fine though. | 19:09 |
| Datz | trappist, basically I want to open a hidden dir to have a folder view | 19:10 |
| LimCore | trappist: xgl crashes each few hours, for me and around 20 people that bothered to send bug report. | 19:10 |
| Datz | with Ubuntu I could give the command eg "nautilus .wine" and it would open in folder view | 19:10 |
| trappist | Datz: not sure I understand. | 19:10 |
| trappist | LimCore: nvidia drivers? | 19:10 |
| LimCore | trappist: yes | 19:11 |
| trappist | yeah I've heard about that one | 19:11 |
| LimCore | this reminds me of a ##C++'s joke | 19:12 |

| Muzer_real | Oh yeah, and also, when in Dolphin, after opening a file successfully and after closing it, it always says (for example) "KDEInit could not launch '/usr/lib/kde4/bin/kate'." | 19:23 |
| Muzer_real | Hello? | 19:25 |
| Muzer_real | Anyone therE> | 19:25 |
| chisiyuan | Yeah | 19:25 |
| Muzer_real | Did you see my big questions? | 19:25 |
| chisiyuan | Ya,i see it, but withou kde4 experience, i don't know what to do with it. | 19:26 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer_real: Did you have a question, or are you merely pointing out the obvious fact that KDE4 is a test platform for applications being ported? | 19:26 |
| vbhide | could anyone please show e how to use telnet? i'm regularly getting the error "could not resolve..." | 19:26 |
| jhutchins_wk | vbhide: Dead simple, telnet <host>. | 19:26 |
| Muzer_real | <Muzer> Hi, I'm fine with KDE4 except for one thing: The version of Ark is crap. What would be the best way to make a) KDE4 Dolphin use KDE3 Ark and b) KDE3 Ark use KDE4 Dolphin. Currently the KDE4 Dolphin uses the KDE4 Ark and KDE3 Ark uses KDE3 Dolphin. Please note I already have the KDE3 Ark installed and it shows up in the K menu. I have a pretty good idea how to get KDE4 Dolphin to use KDE3 Ark, but not KDE3 Ark using KDE4 Dolph | 19:26 |
| vbhide | i tried atleast 10 hosts | 19:26 |
| Muzer_real | That one | 19:27 |
| jhutchins_wk | vbhide: If you can't resolve the host, that's a different problem. Your DNS isn't working or you have a bad hostname. | 19:27 |
| jhutchins_wk | !repeat | 19:27 |
| ubottu | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com http://wiki.ubuntu.com http://www.ubuntuforums.org or http://www.kubuntuforums.net while you wait. Also see !patience | 19:27 |
| vbhide | thanks jhutchins | 19:27 |
| Muzer_real | I was telling you which was my question that I meant | 19:27 |
| === german is now known as b__ | ||
| vbhide | but then how can i acess the net? | 19:27 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer_real: That's not a question, it's just a complaint. | 19:27 |
| === Muzer_real is now known as Muzer | ||
| chisiyuan | yeah,perhaps kde4 is not stable enough now | 19:28 |
| Aison | hello, im using firefox and thunderbird under kubuntu. When I klick on a link inside an email, no browser opens. I would like that firefox opens the URL | 19:29 |
| jhutchins_wk | chisiyuan: Well, this isn't a stability issue - instability means it sometimes works one way, sometimes another. This is a matter of most applications haven't been ported to qt4 yet. | 19:29 |
| Aison | what's wrong here? | 19:30 |
| jhutchins_wk | Aison: You probably need to either set the browser in Thunderbird's preferences, or set it in the KDE Components sections of kdesu kcontrol. | 19:31 |
| chisiyuan | jhutchns_wk:yeah,i will use my kde3.5.8 until kde4 is satisfatory | 19:31 |
| Muzer_real | Did anyone give an answer? My wifi keeps needing resetting for some stupid reason | 19:31 |
| stdin | jhutchins_wk: kdesu would set it for root | 19:31 |
| Muzer_real | I need to go with a better WiFi client | 19:31 |
| stdin | Aison: System Settings -> Default Applications | 19:31 |
| Aison | thx | 19:31 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer_real: You didn't ask a question. | 19:32 |
| Muzer_real | Notice the second (or third?) sentance, What would be the best way to... | 19:32 |
| Muzer_real | That sounds like a question to me. | 19:32 |
| smeril | how can i reinstall my soundcard? | 19:33 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer_real: I don't see any question in your posts that have reached here, but since you apparantly missed it: KDE4 is far from finished yet. Don't expect it to be a full working environment. | 19:33 |
| Muzer_real | What would be the best way to make a) KDE4 Dolphin use KDE3 Ark and b) KDE3 Ark use KDE4 Dolphin. | 19:34 |
| Muzer_real | That is my question | 19:34 |
| jhutchins_wk | smeril: Remove the screws holding the cover on the case... | 19:34 |
| Muzer_real | I extracted it from the big post | 19:34 |
| DarkriftX | the guy IS asking a question | 19:34 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer_real: If it's possible you're going to have to ask in #kde or somewhere. As far as we know, KDE4 just doesn't completely work so far. | 19:35 |
| DarkriftX | he knows it doesnt work and he is looking for a workaround | 19:35 |
| Muzer_real | I assume that's on the same server? | 19:35 |
| jhutchins_wk | DarkriftX: How 'bout that. So he is. | 19:35 |
| DarkriftX | yes Muzer_real | 19:35 |
| DarkriftX | also i think there is a #kde4 you might try | 19:35 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer_real: I would assume it would be a mime type file association. | 19:35 |
| === Muzer_real is now known as Muzer | ||
| DarkriftX | mime sounds liek it owuld fix the first problem | 19:36 |
| jhutchins_wk | Ah, yes, if there's a kde4 definitely take it there, you'll only annoy people in #kde. | 19:36 |
| Muzer | OK | 19:36 |
| DarkriftX | but the second sounds harder | 19:36 |
| Muzer | I'll check | 19:36 |
| DarkriftX | and beyond my scope :S | 19:36 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer: One way to set mime associations is to right-click a local file, choose Open With, and check the box to remember the choice. | 19:36 |
| Muzer | #kde4 is #kde | 19:36 |
| Muzer | it's a symlink | 19:36 |
| DarkriftX | ahhh | 19:36 |
| smeril | i have a laptop | 19:36 |
| Odd-rationale | there is #kubuntu-kde4 (see the topic) | 19:37 |
| Muzer | jhutchins_wk: You'd have to do that for every archive type | 19:37 |
| jhutchins_wk | smeril: Lots more screws and parts to remove then. | 19:37 |
| Muzer | Could I just remove The KDE4 Ark and replace it with a symlink to the KDE3 one | 19:37 |
| smeril | do you know a more simple solution? | 19:37 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer: Well, there might be a component setting. | 19:37 |
| Muzer | I'll join #kubunt-kde4u | 19:37 |
| jhutchins_wk | Muzer: No, a symlink would be active in any environment, and we don't know if ark from kde3 woudl work. (I suppose you could try launching it manually to see...) | 19:38 |
| smeril | i dont hear any sound and i cant acces the volume control or any other sound related programs | 19:38 |
| jhutchins_wk | smeril: Does alsamixer run in the console? | 19:38 |
| smeril | alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 19:38 |
| smeril | everything worked fine last time i used the computer | 19:39 |
| Muzer | kde3 ark from kde4 does work, but it loads the kde3 dolphin when open file after extract is ticked | 19:40 |
| chisiyuan | smeril: It sounds like you are repeating my story. Have backup your system? | 19:41 |
| smeril | no but i can take what i need on a usb stick | 19:41 |
| Mimi | *sigh* ive been looking for days. Does anyone have a guide to record audio that you can hear? (im not looking to record streams, just a game and voice chat on it) -- Sound Recorder doesnt work for me | 19:43 |

| delta16 | hey guy's can someone help me ? | 19:44 |
| Mimi | !ask | delta16 | 19:44 |
| ubottu | delta16: 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. :-) | 19:44 |
| Muzer | Bugger it, no-one's replying on #kubuntu, #kde, or #kubuntu-kde4, I'll just try a backup + symlink | 19:46 |
| delta16 | i have Kubuntu install wit Dutchas system languge ,whe many software packages that i want to install cant becouse it's ging me an error that it's not in the ropsitry. one of the packeges is UNRAR. | 19:47 |
| BluesKaj | delta16, sudo apt-get install unrar | 19:48 |

| delta16 | yea that is the normal way i install the packages , but them i'm gettein the error messages | 19:49 |
| SchmittyTu | kde and blackberry? you guys heard of anything fancy? | 19:49 |
| trappist | delta16: you need to enable the universe repository, and possibly multiverse | 19:49 |
| trappist | !universe > delta16 | 19:49 |
| delta16 | thax il try that | 19:50 |
| Ketrel | If I have scripts in my Autostart folder and one of them didn't work, where can I find the output it would've produced so I can see why? | 19:50 |
| BluesKaj | delta16, Open Adept Package Manager, On the menu of that screen click on Adept -> Manage Repositories, click the Kubuntu Software tab, check all the boxes "X".The same goes for the Third Party Software tab. Close,and then in the terminal type " sudo apt-get update ".Now, you have more sources for applications other than the defaults that came with Kubuntu. | 19:50 |
| delta16 | BluesKaj , sorry didn't work :( | 19:53 |

| LimCore | wow, ubuntu fails me so hard today | 19:54 |

| trappist | lliw00: install mesa-common-dev | 20:18 |
| delta16 | trapist damn i'm getting the same error message :( | 20:19 |
| vbgunz | unexpectedly is no definitive answer... I am as much in the dark as the dark itself... lame analogy but true. I can live with the fact I am getting a signal 11 *but* is there anyway to actually trace it or something. any way to actually catch the cause, log the actual cause? | 20:19 |
| trappist | delta16: not sure what to tell you :/ maybe it's just missing from the nl repo | 20:19 |
| delta16 | ok , is ther a way to use the english repo with dutch a system languge ? | 20:20 |
| trappist | delta16: got it! sudo apt-get install unrar-nonfree | 20:21 |
| Santi- | help¿ | 20:21 |
| dwidmann | delta16: you can use whatever repo you want. | 20:21 |
| dwidmann | delta16: probably anyhow | 20:21 |
| delta16 | cous i think english repo wil solve the problem | 20:22 |
| trappist | delta16: but yeah dwidmann's right, you don't have to use a local repo to get your local language... but, "sudo apt-get install unrar-nonfree" | 20:22 |
| delta16 | trappist the trick (sudo apt-get install unrar-nonfree) didn't work | 20:23 |
| trappist | ! | 20:23 |
| delta16 | i got the erromessage that the package does not exist | 20:23 |
| trappist | delta16: I guess just download the package and install it: http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/u/unrar-nonfree/unrar_3.7.8-1_i386.deb | 20:23 |
| trappist | delta16: then sudo dpkg -i unrar-nonfree/unrar_3.7.8-1_i386.deb | 20:24 |
| trappist | err without the unrar-nonfree/ part | 20:24 |
| trappist | just the filename | 20:24 |
| delta16 | hhaahah yea well iwa already thinking of dooing it the easy way :P | 20:25 |

| jhutchins_wk | _2: Perhaps you could be more specific about "bounce the bootloader to hdc". | 20:29 |
| _2 | jhutchins_uk i have boot from hda, boot from hdb, boot from hdc, boot from hdd listings in my lilo.conf which simply chainload the next drive | 20:31 |

| Boohbah_ | http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/ | 20:57 |
| Boohbah_ | tailsfan: why? | 20:57 |
| BluesKaj | ktorrent has a new beta out ..wonder how stable it is ? | 20:57 |
| hume | is there a way to have a second panel for most used program icons in KDE 4, like in KDE 3.5? Running Kubuntu Heron | 20:57 |
| mado | hi guys ... | 20:58 |
| tailsfan | because the best I downloaded was at 200 kb/s | 20:58 |

| Agent_bob | huttoh! ""Cannot create target directory "/mnt/usr/share/~ons/crystalsvg" No space left on device (28)"" i wonder what the krap that error message is? or what is causing it i mean... | 21:16 |
| MrCraig | when KDE 4.1 one comes out, will it be a kubuntu "sponsored" update, or will we have to wait until 8.10 before 4.1 is in there? | 21:16 |
| MrCraig | *the final release | 21:16 |
| Agent_bob | and don't say the disk is full it's not even close. 63G free | 21:17 |
| Agent_bob | no reserve and root is doing the copying | 21:17 |
| FenixReign | can anyone tell me if there is a way to upgrade 7.10 to 8.04 with the downloaded disc? | 21:18 |
| Agent_bob | so why would mc error with ""Cannot create target directory "/mnt/usr/share/~ons/crystalsvg" No space left on device (28)"" | 21:18 |

| FenixReign | SmileyPete, what do you mean alternate CD? | 21:21 |
| ScorpKing | !kde4 | 21:21 |
| ubottu | KDE 4.0.3 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0.3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.3.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.3.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 | 21:21 |
| mado | i found this on a homepage ... | 21:21 |
| mado | QUESTION: Is there any place I can download a .zip file of all the pages? - ANSWER. If by "download" you mean purchase, and by ".zip file" you mean book. Otherwise you have to save all of them individually. Good luck. | 21:21 |
| joseph | is there any free web forum software in the repos? | 21:21 |
| mado | my question now is ... is it illegal to download the pages? | 21:21 |
| SlimeyPete | FenixReign: there are two CDs - the liveCD and the alternate CD. Both are available from the download page. | 21:22 |
| Agent_bob | 1 [root@/mnt/usr/share/apps] mkdir kde | 21:22 |
| Agent_bob | mkdir: cannot create directory `kde': No space left on device | 21:22 |
| Agent_bob | eeek. | 21:22 |
| mado | because the creator didn't say it was | 21:22 |
| Agent_bob | 63gig free but no space left .... | 21:22 |
| mado | what do you think? | 21:22 |
| nysin | I downloaded and tried Kubuntu Hardy KDE4, and some of KDE4 is kind of neat, but it's also, as expected, pretty unstable. So my question is, will just doing something like uninstalling the main KDE4 (meta)package and installing the KDE3 equivalent be sufficient to switch? | 21:22 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: df -h? | 21:22 |
| SlimeyPete | mado: erm that's not really appropriate for this channel (try #kubuntu-offtopic) but it's perfectly legal I should think | 21:23 |
| Agent_bob | ScorpKing 63 g free | 21:23 |
| Agent_bob | i just said that | 21:23 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: dmesg | tail or maybe something in the logs? | 21:23 |
| mado | ok ... thanks SlimeyPete --- could you explain me in a query why do you think it is? | 21:23 |
| FenixReign | SlimeyPete, you mean the one with the KDE4 remix... correct? | 21:23 |
| Agent_bob | /dev/hda 75G 13G 63G 17% /mnt | 21:23 |
| SlimeyPete | FenixReign: no | 21:23 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: it could be that /tmp is full | 21:23 |
| BluesKaj | Agent_bob, why not use /home or | 21:23 |
| SlimeyPete | FenixReign: hang on I'll find a link | 21:23 |
| FenixReign | SlimeyPete, I don't see an alternateCD choice then... | 21:24 |
| Agent_bob | last two entries [17179727.040000] EXT3 FS on hda, internal journal | 21:24 |
| Agent_bob | [17179727.040000] EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. | 21:24 |
| nysin | (I didn't partition it so that I could just wipe the / partition or something) | 21:24 |
| SlimeyPete | mado: I prefer not to query. Try asking the same question in #kubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:24 |
| Agent_bob | BluesKaj ? i'm migrating to another drive or was trying to | 21:24 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: touch /tmp/testfile - any errors? | 21:25 |
| SlimeyPete | FenixReign: http://mirrors.ccs.neu.edu/releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/hardy/ - look for "alternate" in the filename | 21:25 |
| Agent_bob | ScorpKing it's not / it's /mnt that is reporting full | 21:25 |
| SlimeyPete | FenixReign: you can upgrade from that CD | 21:25 |
| SlimeyPete | !alternate | 21:25 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Kubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/8.04/kubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 21:25 |
| Devourer | How do I check to see what my default soundcard is? | 21:25 |
| mado | ok SlimeyPete ... thanks anyway | 21:25 |
| melkart | i just read there is a limit on maximum 32000 subdirs in ext3 | 21:26 |
| ScorpKing | ah but that should show in dmesg or the logs then | 21:26 |
| FenixReign | SlimeyPete, Thanks... I just downloaded a CD last night.... argh!! I don't think that it was the alternate one though.... | 21:26 |
| SlimeyPete | FenixReign: if your kubuntu box has an internet connection you can just upgrade via the 'net | 21:27 |
| Agent_bob | http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d102a673b | 21:28 |
| Agent_bob | ScorpKing see that ^ | 21:28 |
| spiroo | Adobe has opened up the restrictions in Flash. How would that affect us users which using (k)ubuntu | 21:28 |
| * ScorpKing takes a look.. | 21:28 | |
| Agent_bob | ScorpKing also tty23 [root@dell.~] mkdir /mnt/bob | 21:29 |
| Agent_bob | mkdir: cannot create directory `/mnt/bob': No space left on device | 21:29 |
| FenixReign | SlimeyPete, I know... thought that it would be faster doing it from the cd that I downloaded instead... I have Satellite Internet and I'm damn near close to reaching FAP (Fair Access Policy) and when I do they cut me off.... | 21:29 |
| SlimeyPete | FenixReign: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades/Kubuntu for instructions by the way | 21:30 |
| BluesKaj | FenixReign, cut you off ...limits on your DLs ?.I thought that went out with dialup | 21:30 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: fdisk -l /dev/hda and pastebin that | 21:31 |
| udi | Thunderbird refuses to open urls that are embedded in email messages. What do I do? | 21:31 |
| FenixReign | BluesKaj, since I have Sat. internet the company can't just go rent bandwidth when they want to, so they start cutting ppl off when they reach a certain point. | 21:32 |
| ubuntu_ | hi | 21:32 |
| ScorpKing | udi: there is a setting for that in preferences | 21:32 |
| Agent_bob | ScorpKing it's in the pastebin | 21:32 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: link? | 21:32 |
| Agent_bob | http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d102a673b | 21:32 |
| BluesKaj | FenixReign, is it bundled with TV service ? | 21:32 |
| udi | scor- in teh Thunderbird preferences? I could not find it | 21:33 |
| Agent_bob | ScorpKing it starts at line 6 or didn't you notice ? | 21:33 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: /dev/hda on /mnt type ext3 (rw) and fdisk -l doesn't show the partitions of /dev/hda or am i missing that? | 21:33 |
| FenixReign | BluesKaj, no separate service... I live in the country and sat. is the only way for now to get "high speed" so far I am disappointed, but there is nothing else right now. | 21:33 |
| Agent_bob | there are no partitions ScorpKing | 21:33 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: oops ;) | 21:34 |
| ScorpKing | Agent_bob: ok i see now | 21:34 |
| Agent_bob | :) | 21:34 |
| udi | Scorpking-- where in the preferences do I find the instructions to open a browser with the url from the email message? | 21:34 |
| Agent_bob | anyway while you catch up i'll reformat the disk and try again. | 21:35 |
| ScorpKing | udi: i'll check just now. one sec | 21:35 |

| === James is now known as GoldBug | ||
| GoldBug | ahh better | 23:39 |
| GoldBug | how are you | 23:39 |
| monkeypaw201 | ;-| | 23:39 |
| GoldBug | sorry this is James laptop | 23:40 |
| monkeypaw201 | fine, yourself? im just getting frustrated at Pidgin | 23:40 |
| GoldBug | well i just converted to kunbuntu today from XP | 23:40 |
| monkeypaw201 | welcome! | 23:40 |
| monkeypaw201 | congratz! | 23:40 |
| monkeypaw201 | finally! :P | 23:40 |
| GoldBug | thanks^^ | 23:40 |
| GoldBug | LOL | 23:40 |
| GoldBug | hey i am a gamer | 23:40 |
| GoldBug | so that has been the major reason for my not converting | 23:41 |
| monkeypaw201 | you need help getting them running? | 23:41 |
| ScorpKing | i have about 40 packages that i want to copy to one directory from my local repo in /ubuntu/ .how can i use find and give it all the package names in one command so it will copy those to my home directory? will [ find -name "bash apt amarok konsole" | xargs cp /home/me/temp ] work? | 23:41 |
| GoldBug | but XP just got a virus and I don't have my disks for XP | 23:41 |
| GoldBug | so i thought what the hell | 23:41 |
| monkeypaw201 | lol, you can easily re-install and run most games in ubuntu | 23:41 |
| GoldBug | so i downloaded it and installed it and now i am just trying to get everything configured properly | 23:42 |
| GoldBug | yea that is what i have been told and my reason for the conversion | 23:42 |
| monkeypaw201 | scorpking, im not sure... sorry check in #ubuntu | 23:42 |
| Danish989 | Does anyone know how to fix the BusyBox problem yet? I installed Hardy Heron using WUBI inside Windows XP two days ago, and out of nowhere, now it refuses to boot and I'm stuck at the Busy Box command line ..... does anyone know what to do? | 23:42 |
| GoldBug | worse case senario i figgure i can just run xp in a VM | 23:42 |
| ScorpKing | monkeypaw201: np i'm reading the manual ;) | 23:42 |
| GoldBug | but right now i am having the WORSE time getting my video drivers to work properly | 23:43 |
| GoldBug | i have a 8600gts | 23:43 |
| monkeypaw201 | easy | 23:43 |
| monkeypaw201 | look in the upper-right corner | 23:43 |
| GoldBug | and my desktop is set to 640 by 48 | 23:43 |
| monkeypaw201 | next to the clock | 23:43 |
| Ketrel | If I want to chmod to be executable for all, I can do +x or 0111. If I wanted ot make it just executable for say group, I could do 0010, but how would I do that int he +x type syntax? | 23:43 |
| monkeypaw201 | you should see something similar to an electronic card... just click on it and it should list all in-active / not-working drivers | 23:44 |
| SlimeyPete | g+x | 23:44 |
| GoldBug | k monkey i have the hardware driver up | 23:44 |
| Ketrel | SlimeyPete, so g is for group, what are the other two? | 23:44 |
| monkeypaw201 | ok, now just click the driver and apply/install/ or something and it will go and install the linux driver for you | 23:44 |
| SlimeyPete | Ketrel: a, g, u and o if I remember correctly - all, group, user, owner | 23:45 |
| Ketrel | danke danke | 23:45 |
| GoldBug | did that already and that is what caused my desktop to go from 12X10 to 640X480 | 23:45 |
| Dragnslcr | Ketrel- u is user, g is group, o is other | 23:45 |
| SlimeyPete | ah, other | 23:45 |
| SlimeyPete | makes more sense | 23:45 |
| monkeypaw201 | hmm... what version area you running?? | 23:46 |
| Ketrel | thanks :) | 23:46 |
| GoldBug | 8.04 | 23:46 |
| GoldBug | the stable kde | 23:46 |
| GoldBug | 4 | 23:46 |
| monkeypaw201 | ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu? | 23:46 |
| GoldBug | kunbuntu | 23:46 |
| GoldBug | kubuntu* | 23:47 |
| darky | most users of this chanel are running kubuntu | 23:47 |

| darky | Nvidia Geforce FX 5 | 23:52 |
| goldbug_ | hmm i am running an 8600gts | 23:52 |
| goldbug_ | heh hopefully the solution can fix both of our problems | 23:52 |
| darky | with the appropriate driver or kubuntu's default driver? | 23:52 |
| goldbug_ | heh the default driver worked better then the one that it downloaded for me | 23:53 |
| manux | 7list | 23:53 |
| darky | The one I downloaded doesn't work | 23:56 |
| darky | it shows wierd things, the screen turns to different collors | 23:56 |
| goldbug_ | OH i should prolly mention that i am running the 64 bit version | 23:56 |
| VousDeux | hello: I just installed all of the updates, but now when I try to launch VMware I get this error: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libbonoboui-2.so.0: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_impl | 23:57 |
