Daisuke_Laptopthere we go00:15

TuPariWhy can't I change my volume settings after upgrading to 8.04 ?00:16
PovAddictDaisuke_Laptop: yeah I noticed the closest to me (ar.archive.ubuntu.com) downloading at like 30KB/s even though my connection is 1mbit00:16
PovAddictand sometimes taking a whole minute to *start* downloading00:16

Simonftim on a powerbook G4 running Kubuntu, and it refuses to boot from the cd. I takes it in and spits it back out, even when im logged in normally. I was burned at the slowest speed possible00:16
sponixubottu: I selected "Normal Releases" instead of LTS as well, that shouldn't be an issue though, riiight ?00:17
Simonftsponix: it's a bot00:17
Simonftsponix: Daisuke_Laptop told it to say that00:17
Daisuke_LaptopPovAddict: just because it's closest doesn't make it fastest :D00:18
sponixSimonft: close enough ;)00:18
Simonftsponix: lol00:18
sponixso, that automagic mirror selector, it will update the GPG keys as needed also ?00:19
Daisuke_Laptopit's probably not a problem with the key, but a problem with the mirror.00:19

viperserv2is wine the only way to run windows apps?00:24
tsbviperserv2: virtualbox isn't bad for a full virtualization00:25
viperserv2virtualbox hmm would u say it works better than wine?00:26
PovAddictviperserv2: of course; but you need to have Windows00:27
PovAddictwine tries to implement Windows APIs00:27
PovAddictvirtualbox lets you run the real Windows inside a virtual machine00:27
Daisuke_Laptopand of course it all depends on what you want to run00:28
Daisuke_Laptopif you want to run games, gooooood luck with virtualbox.00:28
McRibCould someone tell me why my Konversation (in 8.04) isn't opening links when I click on them?  I use Firefox but even setting the "custom web browser" as such doesn't work.00:28
viperserv2ah will the irc tcp stacks be like windows or linux?00:28
Dragnslcrkvm/qemu might work fairly well with games if you have a newer CPU00:29
viperserv2ahh u need windows nm00:29
PovAddictviperserv2: virtualbox is a VM, you install Windows on it00:29
Dragnslcrviperserv2- IRC and TCP are very different things00:29
PovAddict(or any other operating system)00:29
Daisuke_LaptopDragnslcr: don't you still have to use software rendering if it's available?00:29
viperserv2yeah thats the problem have to install windows00:29
PovAddictDaisuke_Laptop: why virtualbox bad for games? performance?00:30
Daisuke_LaptopPovAddict: 3d00:30
DragnslcrDaisuke_Laptop- I dunno. I'm not sure if kvm gives near-direct access to the video card or not00:30
viperserv2fios is nice00:30
trident523viperserv2: yes, it is.00:30
PovAddictwrt compatibility, it should be way better than Wine, since it's the real thing00:30
trident523viperserv2: The news server is the best, ever, ever.00:30
Daisuke_LaptopPovAddict: traditionally, VMs have had major issues with video, unable to provide anything close to native 3d video performance, making it unsuitable for gaming00:31
viperserv2hmm i have rr myself00:31
Daisuke_Laptopbut absolutely, it's the most compatible thing you'll find.00:31
viperserv2they give u 30/5?00:31
PovAddictDaisuke_Laptop: yep, they emulate a VGA card or something lol00:31
PovAddicttrident523: news server...?00:31
Daisuke_Laptopand i'm so proud, i have yet to install wine on the new hardy installs (laptop and desktop)00:31

trident523viperserv2: What would a gui webserver have, other than "on/off?"00:37
alexander_i mean compatibility wise... is there most programs for kde or gnome?00:37
trident523alexander_: You can install kde apps on gnome, gnome apps on kde... etc.00:37
dwidmannalexander_: try them both and find out00:37
sponixalexander_: I like xubuntu, kubuntu, and ubuntu in that order... gubuntu I tried, and felt it was lacking ...That is just me00:37
jeroen-alexander_: looking for something particular00:37
alexander_i like clean interfaces with fancy effects00:38
sponixsacha_: make sure I'm right when I say that... gubuntu is the one that uses Enlightenment right ?00:38

alexander_windows key-tab is fancy:)00:41
gustavo_listen00:41
gustavo_the hardware is not detected00:42
Simonftalexander_: did you enable the effects00:42
dwidmannmacisp2000: probably slightly more packages, alternate and live installers (and perhaps more installation options, I can't recall)00:42
gustavo_lspci and lshw00:42
trident523Simonft: Well, if it is a g4... it needs the ppc disc. Now, a newer... intel mac will support hardy in it's normal form.00:42
jeroen-gustavo_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure network-manager00:42
trident523Simonft: unless you are running a VM.00:42
Simonfttrident523: I have the ppc disk for hardy00:42
gustavo_jeroen-: nothing00:42
macisp2000I downloaded and installed it over the CD, but don't see any difference.00:42

jeroen-is it a usb or pcicia?00:42
gustavo_Simonft: i did that too00:43
gustavo_it compiles normally00:43
trident523macisp2000: It includes more software on the CD repository, and the alt installer. Installing over dosen't really do anything, to my knowledge.00:43
gustavo_just doesnt work00:43
gustavo_the hardware, the card is not detected00:43
jeroen-gustavo_: is it a usb-stick?00:43
gustavo_no!00:43
Simonft1. sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist00:43
Simonft2. Change “blacklist bcm43xx” to “#blacklist bcm43xx”00:43
Simonft3. Restart. You should get a restricted driver message.00:43
Simonft4. Enable restricted driver00:43
Simonft5. Restart and you are good to go00:43
gustavo_hp dv635300:43
gustavo_i did that!!00:43
macisp2000Also, when I enable Desktop effects and select the "manage with a seperate manger" I then install compiz manager, but all the icons in the manager are just little squares instead of the pics, any ideas?00:44
gustavo_restricted-manager also doesnt detected it00:44
macisp2000thanks for the dvd info00:44
jeroen-gustavo_: the only thing I can think of is ndiswrapper00:44

jeroen-but seems you tried everything already00:45
gustavo_the wireless works on windows00:45
jeroen-gustavo_: off course it does00:45
gustavo_no it doesnt00:45
jeroen-my mother also works on windows ;-)00:45

HrontoreHm, BlueKaj isn't here. Darn it.00:46
macisp2000BIG question, I would like to know of a program/feature for making my own Kubuntu LiveCD after I get all the programs installed and setup like I like.  I liked this feature in PCLinuxOS, but I would assume that someone has done a similar program with Kubuntu?00:46
gustavo_Simonft: nothing new there00:47
Simonftmacisp2000: not that I have heard of00:47
jeroen-macisp2000: a customized live-cd ? yes I want that to00:47
Simonftgustavo_: no idea, im on a broadcom and it is working.00:47
HrontoreI need help with my package data base, I think its locked becuase I have a broken install of a python poker server. I need help to unlock the database and finish the install, then uninstall.00:47
jeroen-there are some utilietes I have hears off, but it needs a lot of expertise\00:47
gustavo_Simonft: something maybe related to noapic and nolapic boot options?00:48
Simonftgustavo_: for your problem or for mine?00:48

RoeyHi!  Question:  i can get 'wacdump /dev/wacom' working fine in a pty console, but in an X terminal it doesn't report anything.  What's up with this?01:19
matt____i can i install linux to a flashdrive? I'm wanting the ophcrack live cd to a flash drive...01:27
matt____for bootable flash drive i mean01:27
sacha_ophcrack? this is kubuntu01:29
sacha_anyway, there are heaps of livecds that install on to flash drives01:29
sacha_i think slax is the best. it has this copy2ram feature which copies the entire flash to RAM and then you can take out the flash and still run linux (only from RAM)01:30
sacha_you can stick the flash back in later to save the changes you made01:30
PovAddictcan I configure which users are allowed to shutdown the system?01:32
matt____sacha_: exactly what i'm wanting, but HOW to install to flashdrive is what i need.01:32
sacha_matt____: d/l the slax file01:33
sacha_matt____: copy it to your flash drive and then run the makebootable.sh script01:33
sacha_thats it01:33
matt____sacha_: oh....gotcha. i was thinking of dealing with isos...the ophcrack live cd is an iso that runs off slax, though. so it'd be easier, if possible, to do it that method...but i'll look into the slax method01:34
matt____sacha_: and does the slax usb come with a gui? fluxbox i believe it's called?01:35
ChoreboyHALP! Kubuntu no worky.01:35
sacha_matt____: kde01:36
PovAddictChoreboy: you gotta be a lot more specific than that01:36
ChoreboyPovAddict: I know :-\ I just don't know what's wrong. It won't load up like it did yesterday. Network config isn't loading, Power management isn't loading correctly, etc.01:36
matt____sacha_: alright..i'll give it a try. after i boot from it, i suppose that i can install ophcrack to it can't i?01:36
PovAddictcan I configure which users are allowed to shutdown the system? with my current config, looks like any logged-in user can01:37
sacha_matt____: i guess so01:38
ChoreboyCan anyone tell me if there's a way to possibly undo anything I might have done to cause this loading problem?01:38
sacha_matt____: ophcrack probably uses same install method tho, if its based off slax01:39
sacha_just copy to flash and run script01:39
matt____sacha_: umm...it's an iso, a bootable disk. but there are ways to take iso.s and put them on usb.01:39
sacha_matt____: should have a .tar.gz version01:40
sacha_http://www.slax.org/get_slax.php <-- see an iso and a tar version?01:40
matt____sacha_: tar.bz2, but its just the source01:41
sacha_source? are you sure?01:41
matt____make, install, all the regular files01:41
ChoreboyAnyone? I have to fix this or Kubuntu stays no-worky, and for some reason I can't configure LILO to let me boot to windows01:41
sacha_matt____: you looked inside/01:41
matt____sacha_: of the iso?01:42

RoeyHi!  Question:  i can get 'wacdump /dev/wacom' working fine in a pty console, but in an X terminal it doesn't report anything.  What's up with this?01:42

tamiris there still mythtv in repos ?01:44

psycoits says "cpu temp=32C and "temp3"=63C02:17
psycowhat could temp 3 be??02:17
Walzmynwhat kind of sensors?02:17
Feijo_BRvideo?02:17
psycoLike MB temperature sensors02:18
Feijo_BRor HD02:18
Feijo_BRmost likely video02:18
psyco0.o??02:18
WalzmynI'd think you'd need to look at your hardware's documentation02:18
wirechief__psyco maybe man Im-sensors if thats what your using02:18
Dr_willissome mbs have sensors around them.02:18
Dr_willis63c seems a tad warm. :)02:18
psycolol yeah, i'm trying to think what temp 3 could be....02:19
Dr_willisI wonder if not one right under the cpu, or some other chipset.02:19
wirechief__very warm02:19
Dr_willisor it ocould be the data is incorrect. - double check it with what the bios screens show02:19
BluesKajthat was one bad spli there ..haven' t seen that in a while02:19
* Feijo_BR love astroempires game...02:19
psycoDr_willis: this computer I bought is uber crap, HP and I can't get into bios...02:20
wirechief__i think there are sometimes two one underneath and one in or near cpu (dont know though)02:20
Dr_willisI was thinking one under the cpu, and perhaps one on the north/southbridge chips02:20
Walzmynpsyco whatta you mean you can't getinto the bios?02:20
psycoLike I just can't, it totally skips the whole thing and goes straight to grub,02:20
psycoits a damn HP model >..>02:21
psycounless there is another way to get in?02:21
BluesKajpsyco, before it gets to grub , hit the F1 Or F2 key repeatedly02:21
psycoOk i'll try those. My other computers used F8 and delete02:21
Walzmynpsyco I'm sure there's a way, check the documentation for the key but f1 or f2 as it's starting up should ge tyou in02:21
Ketrel_If I need to use a different version of gcc and g++ how do I run the make file?02:21

will01i know, i struggled with installing gentoo on my system but i kept getting too many broken packages03:07
sFEARsthat's because we didn't open with access.. from the alt+f2 type (not sure if this will work in kubuntu) gksu kate /etc/fstab, it should prompt for a password, you will then be able to save to places other than your home folder03:07

sFEARsalmost mauro, when you reboot, in the first 10 seconds while your computer is starting keep hitting esc untill a boot menu pops up, should give a couple options like kubuntu & recovery mode, from there at the bottom it should say press C for command line, at that command line type the "force=apic" and hit enter to boot04:08

lunchbox330no other programs work, they all suck and have never worked for me on multiple pcs and in multiple states04:43
lunchbox330ktorrent is the best04:43

lunchbox330but this problem is recent04:43
maurosFEARs: OK. Thanks. But this problem is related with the problem with the sound in my pc. Or they are different?04:43
sFEARssome where in your control panel/system settings there's a restricted drivers manager04:43

thedanyesanyone know how to restrict your mouse to a single window in kde?05:25
thedanyesi'm running kubuntu 8.0405:26
thedanyesi've researched it for a couple hours but haven't come up with anything05:26
thedanyesany ideas?05:29
needhelphi how can i copy the DAT files of a VCD and make it into DVD playable in kubuntu?05:33
dthackerthedanyes: do you mean you want your mouse to stay in one window and not be able to move outside of it to another window?05:35
needhelp!dvd05:35
ubottuFor playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs05:35
thedanyesdthacker: yes!05:38
thedanyesdthacker: thanks for responding :)05:38
dthackerthedanyes: that's an unusual request.  I think the closest thing I know how to do is only make the current window active.05:39
thedanyesdthacker: well let me explain, i'm running starcraft in a wine virtual desktop, and its hard to use because the cursor always runs outside the wine virtual desktop unlike normally when you play starcraft full screen05:39
thedanyesand i would like to be able to hit alt+f3 or something and toggle mouse movement outside that single window05:40
thedanyesso that i can keep my normal desktop resolution05:40
thedanyesinstead of switching to 640x48005:40
thedanyesmaybe some third party app, or maybe a different desktop environment could help?05:41
dthackerthedanyes: that does make sense.  I'm poking around in Settings-Window Behavior now.05:41
crwebthedanyes: you can tell wine to grab the pointer05:41
needhelpi got a bunch of DAT files from alot of VCDs.. i want to make them into a DVD..how can i do that?05:41
thedanyescrweb: i tried setting that option in winecfg05:41
thedanyescrweb: but it doesn't seem to change anything05:41
dthackerfocus stealing prevention level looks promising.05:42
thedanyescrweb: that option is apparently only for directx apps?  starcraft is opengl?05:42
thedanyesdthacker: i saw that option, but i didn't understand what it meant.05:43
crwebthedanyes: i don't think so.  did you try running with desktop = no, but without fullscreen on05:43
thedanyescrweb: ok maybe we are talking about different options.05:43
thedanyescrweb: the one i'm talking about is in winecfg on the graphics tab it says 'allow directx apps to stop the mouse leaving their window'05:44
thedanyescrweb: are you talking about a different one?05:44
crweb"DXGrab" = "Y"05:44
crwebopengl is graphics only. windows app would still probably use DirectX Input05:45
thedanyescrweb: ok. if i run without a virtual desktop, starcraft runs full screen05:45
thedanyescrweb: there is no windowed mode in starcraft05:45
thedanyescrweb: when run in its native environment05:45
thedanyesso yeah, that works, but it brings me back to having a full screen at 640x480 and my second screen blank05:46
crwebok, so you need virtual desktop nowdays probably05:46
crwebthedanyes: you use winecfg ?05:49
thedanyescrweb: yeah05:49
thedanyescrweb: running kubuntu 8.0405:49
thedanyescrweb: wine 0.9.59 i believe05:50
thedanyesi'm looking at the focus stealing prevention setting and it doesn't seem to apply05:51
crwebthe directx grab should work05:52
crwebdef turn off let window manager manage the windows05:52
thedanyescrweb: yeah i've had that directx grab setting on for awhile i believe, i'll  try it again though. oh ok and i'll turn off the window manager05:53
crwebI've done it before, so i know you can ;)05:53
thedanyesoh hey05:54
thedanyeswell it doesn't keep the cursor in the window still05:54
thedanyesbut at least it moves the right way when my mouse is outside the window05:54
crwebyeah, thats the best you can get05:55
thedanyesso thats a reasonable solution for me i suppose.  would be great if they added a feature for that in the kde advance window settings05:55
crwebbecause the cursor still belongs to X1105:55
crwebwould be nice if they did the vmware type thing though05:55
thedanyesyeah true05:55
thedanyeswell thanks crweb and dthacker :)05:55
crwebi think that is different functionality.  Window grabbing the input05:55
dthackernp, I learned something too! :)05:56
jameswf-homeDoes Ububtu 8.04 use /boot/menu.list and if so why does mine show the right stuff for 8.04 but at boot it tries to load 7.10 though there is no 7.10 stuff in menu,lst... yes I have run update-grub06:03
[Relic] /boot/grub/menu.lst ?06:05
jameswf-homethats what i was goin for..06:05
dbgltWhenever I set  my font to arial in systemsettings -> appearance -> font, it pretends to do so (and the arial font shows up in the preview), but when I click apply and close systemsettings, it doesn't save my font changes... any ideas what could be wrong?06:05
jameswf-homeDoes Ubuntu 8.04 use /boot/grub/menu.list and if so why does mine show the right stuff for 8.04 but at boot it tries to load 7.10 though there is no 7.10 stuff in menu.lst... yes I have run update-grub06:07
Carutsuis there a program to securely delete the "free" space of a disk for linux?06:07
jameswf-homecrap sorry06:07
flaccidjameswf-home: edit it manually i guess then06:07
jameswf-homeevery boot kinda painful06:08
flaccidjust edit menu.list and the changes are permanent06:08
stefan_how do you start the default virtual machine manager in ubuntu 8.04?06:09
jameswf-homemenu.list does NOT reflect the menu at boot06:09
flaccidjameswf-home: then i don't know what you have done06:11
flaccidor what ubuntu did06:11

mike-kubuntuhey, i'm trying to download 8.04 and i've gotten the same bad md5sum through keb on the image from several different mirrors06:53
mike-kubuntuis there anything i can do to stop the error?06:53
flaccidkeb?06:53
mike-kubuntuk3b06:53
mike-kubuntuit gives you an md5sum of the image prior to burning it06:53
flaccidso you saying that the md5sums don't match, yet they should?06:53
flaccidor is it k3b giving you error in creating checksum06:54
Daisuke_Idomike-kubuntu: are you comparing it to the right iso's md5sum?06:54
mike-kubuntuyeah, 2 times in a row i've gotten, 8895167a795c5d8dedcc312fc62f1f1f for the i386 desktop cd06:54
Daisuke_Idouh06:54
Daisuke_Ido...06:54
ubuntuProblem-I type in my password press enter and instead of logging in it restarts the login screen.What can I do?06:55
flaccidmike-kubuntu: please just paste the filename of the .iso06:55
mike-kubuntubut according to the md5sum information i can find its supposed to be 22eefa07792160d5b0f398024b39734906:55

flaccidthanks i'll go look a bit06:56
Daisuke_Idothere is nothing like the md5 you posted anywhere on the 8.04 md5sums page06:56
mike-kubuntud'oh sorry, i was looking at the .metaling md5sums instead of the iso md5sums06:56
Daisuke_Idoah06:57
mike-kubuntu*metalink06:57
Daisuke_Idothere we go06:57
Daisuke_Idoso you've downloaded the right file several times in a row :D06:57
flaccidyeah um, try doing md5sum ./ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso in konsole and see if its a dif sum to what k3b reports06:57
Daisuke_Idoat least the mirrors are consistent :)06:57
Daisuke_Idoflaccid: problem fixed, nothing was giving a wrong sum06:57
mike-kubuntulol, aff, i have my sanity back06:57
flaccidsorry it was fixed?06:58
Daisuke_Idoflaccid: he was looking at the wrong list of md5sums06:58
AyabaraHey. I use kopete in kde4/kubuntu. When I set message notification to "flash taskbar entry", is it possible to make the alert reach me when I'm on another virtual desktop?06:58
flaccidah ok np06:58

flaccidubuntu: what country are you in?07:06
ubuntuO...k What about this one-My own site:http://totalonline.webnode.com/07:06
Daisuke_Idocloser to korean, but i still don't think that's right07:06
ubuntuCould it be translated?07:06
Daisuke_Idoubuntu: difference between webmode and webnode07:07
ubuntuWebmode:domain for sale07:07
flaccidtotalonline is a weird name. i mean if you are online you are online..07:07
ubuntuWebnode:Website making07:07
Daisuke_Idoit is korean07:08
ubuntuHow did you know that?07:08
Daisuke_Idosee the text down by the email link?07:08
ubuntuAhh...07:09
Daisuke_Idoi selected and copied that, dropped it into babelfish, and it translates from korean to english as "This mail"07:09
flaccideasiest way is to look at html sourcE: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=euc-kr">07:09
Daisuke_Idoflaccid: i like to think of myself as macgyver for web 2.007:09
ubuntuThe red text is english?07:10
Daisuke_Idodon't take that away from me :P07:10
flaccidlol. ich bin macgyver <-- macgyver is funny in german07:10
Daisuke_Idono, it's korean as well, but embedded in an image, so it's not as easy to translate, unless they have a really good alt text07:10
ubuntuOhh please has anyone got their site to show me?07:10
flaccidubuntu: this is all off-topic..07:10
flaccidim a webdev but thats beside the point :)07:11

Daisuke_Idoif i pasted a link to my site, i would be chased off by half the people and i would become the other half's best friend.07:11

flaccid!doesntwork | ubuntu07:14
ubottuubuntu: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.07:14
flaccidthats no good..07:14
ubuntuKubuntu bots should be created!07:16
flaccidwhat would be the point ubuntu? considering there is no central kubuntu doco07:16
flaccidubuntu: ubottu has a contextual feature based on the channel you are in which is used a bit. ie. different factoid if you are in kubuntu channel07:17
ubuntuWidgets on your desktop that tell you what to do if something  goes wrong-Kubuntu bots!07:17
flaccidsounds all well and good. but sounds like it requires a lot of intelligience...07:17
flaccidif that was possible then the 'widget' should just fix. unfortunately there are too many variables here to create such a program07:18
flaccidubuntu: give me an example of what you could do wrong? and yeah an irc bot != a widget07:18
dwidmannembedding me in your computer screen would be illegal ubuntu ;)  So IRC will have to do.07:18
flaccidwell yeah integrating irc into desktop is pretty crazy. people would not like it and its not logical07:19
ubuntuIt would cover icons.....07:19
ubuntuThe ones on your desktop.....07:20
dwidmannflaccid: no crazier than embedding a terminal in your desktop07:20
ubuntuWhere did that come from-BANGBANG BANG!!!!!07:20
ubuntuMore crazier07:21
flaccidi disagree and where is a terminal embedded to the desktop?07:21
flaccidand besides this channel is free arbitary community support. not paid professional support from verified employees.07:22
Daisuke_Idocan be done through superkaramba, i believe.07:22
flaccidthats what canonical is for..07:22
flaccidDaisuke_Ido: hmm07:22
flaccidi'll check it out!07:22
flaccidhangong, something replaces superkaramba in kde4 right07:22
Daisuke_Idoor more practical: yakuake07:22
Daisuke_Idoflaccid: plasma07:23
flaccidyeah yakuake is what i use07:23

flaccidyeah cool07:23

Daisuke_Idoyakuake is a lot more practical, i don't always have access to my desktop (i've got so many things open at one time, it's ridiculous)07:23

bdizzlehello?08:17
flaccidhi08:18
bdizzlehi08:18
flaccidhow can we help08:18
bdizzleum, I'm trying to get Java to work under Firefox 2 (Gave up on Firefox 3 for now)08:18
LilSargeHello, i have a quick issue08:18
flaccid!java | bdizzle08:19
ubottubdizzle: 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.08:19
flaccid!ask | LilSarge08:19
ubottuLilSarge: 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. :-)08:19
LilSargeI just upgraded from Kubuntu 7.10 to the new 8.04 or w/e it is and programs arent opening correcty. Ex: I open the update program and it hangs for a minute and closes..it never really opens08:19
LilSargefirefox doesnt even open it freezes08:20
bdizzleI have Java on Firefox saying that JRE is not installed properly, even though it is installed on the system and I can open OpenOffice, which uses Java to run.08:20
flaccidLilSarge:  you could submit a bug08:21
flaccidbdizzle: did you read and follow the above guide?08:21
bdizzleyeah, did that already08:22
LilSargeum thx08:23
bdizzleanytime I go to a website that requires Java plugins for chat rooms, it says JRE isn't installed, and Wikipedia won't load any media08:23
flaccidi don't use firefox so im sorry i can't help08:24
bdizzleokay, maybe the problem isn't JRE08:25
bdizzleI just pulled something up and got Wikipedia media to work in Konqueror08:26
hisometimes when i login I don't have any of the normal taskbar items in the right (network, power levels etc that are important). does anyone know what might be going on or is this just normal bugginess?08:26
bdizzlewell, at least got the player to load in Konqueror, but still no sound08:27
=== jim__ is now known as Opus-
=== Opus- is now known as Opus62
flaccidbdizzle: URI?08:30
bdizzlehmm?08:30
flaccidthe URL you are testing08:30
bdizzleI'm still trying to get this to work08:30
LilSargeim about to go back to Windows Lol08:31
bdizzlehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maple_Leaf_Rag08:31
flaccidsometimes windows is quite sensible08:31
bdizzlejust using it as a test bed08:31
bdizzleit is loading, but loading as quicktime, not Java or VLC, both of which I have installed08:31
* flaccid goes to check it out08:31
hialso a few times today, logging in gave me no desktop icons etc. it seems as soon as i get things comfy, and setup how i like, stuff starts breaking in a few weeks.08:31
bdizzlebut I still have no sound in it08:32
flaccidis this the play sound button bdizzle?08:32
bdizzleI'm not sure08:32
LilSargeyes i agree, i had it all working good again and it breaks..guess i shouldnt have tried updating :(08:32
bdizzleyeah, I think click on that and it should have an internal player to play audio from08:32
* flaccid goes to try08:33
bdizzleits claiming under "More" that it is using player: Quicktime (selected)08:33
flaccidbdizzle: well that is not working for me in opera08:33
bdizzleI got it to at least load in Konqueror, tells me that the player is not installed in FIrefox08:33
flaccidwhich means the problem may not be kubuntu but rather the website08:34
flaccidbdizzle: you are talking about testing java or javascript?08:34
bdizzleI honestly don't know08:34
flaccidbdizzle: tell me which browsers this works in please: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml08:35
bdizzlewhen I try loading the page under Firefox, it gives me the error when I click on the "Play" button: "Sorry, youre system dos not appear to have an supported players"08:35
* flaccid waits08:36
bdizzleKonqueror loads it, Firefox does not08:36
flaccidwell its worse on my system. only opera loads it08:37
flaccidfirefox and konq try but fail08:37
flaccidyou are welcome to submit a bug on this...08:37
flaccidim kind of over these bugs myself08:37
bdizzleheh08:37
bdizzletrue that08:37
flaccidit gets fixed, it gets broken, it gets fixed, it gets broken. seems like a never ending cycle with the players being the community and the vendor08:38
bdizzlethe only thing that I've really noticed different between Gutsy and Hardy is that in Hardy, compiz works08:38
flaccidbdizzle: that may be the result of a bug fix actually working :)08:38
bdizzleheh08:39
bdizzlebut for every bug they fix, they create four more08:39
hii'll admit, i've seen a lot more regressions in 8.04 personally.. but i wouldn't say that's generally true08:39
flaccidyes, thats what i very much dislike. as i say 'my kingdom for a stable desktop' which does not exist yet without caveats..08:39
hilol08:40
bdizzleI keep hearing on the boards that people think Linux is ready for the mainstream and I'm thinking to myself, what are you nuts? we dont' have any commercial software backing yet08:40
hi"we dont' have any commercial software backing yet" you might be missing the point of FOSS imho08:40
flaccidthats the main problem. even the companies that try to support linux don't interact08:40
hithat's a lame benchmark for "useful"08:40
bdizzleno, I agree, its great that we have open source software08:41
flaccidwell commercial backing is important when the software is commercial08:41
hiyeah, like nvidia, ati offering binary blobs for few architectures08:41
flaccidthe restricted drivers are commercial08:41
bdizzletrue08:41
flaccidi've become a bit of a video expert but nothing like other people and its still a massive struggle08:41
flaccidjust for video08:41
bdizzleits just that a lot of people expect to be able to go to the store, buy a software title, put it in their CD rom drive, and click "install" and are happily playing their game or whatever 5 minutes later08:42
hiwell, i will say there's a different paradign for even ubuntu isnt' there? i still get responses like "well i use XYX321mp3 blah blah to play mp3 at the CLI" pff... who on earth!?08:43
hivs FOSS stuff in os-x is actually better designed than the commercial stuff08:43
hiit's interesting to see the different philosophies08:43
bdizzletrue08:43
hiit's also frustrating, as i think os-x sucks :(08:43
bdizzleI mean, when I heard iTunes wasn't supported on Linux, its like, okay, what does Linux use? I found Amarok, haven't looked back since08:44
hiyet, stuff works very well (with ffmpeg beautiful installation via perian etc)08:44
flaccidos x is derived from things like freebsd which are excellent but yeah08:44
hiyeah, well i have08:44
hisince amarok doesn't open anything over the network08:44
flaccidim a power user. i have to put up with sh** everyday08:44
hiand itunes picks up playlists from other computers etc08:44
flaccidhi: it does open over network fine, if you don't have a bug :)08:44
hiwell, true... but i've only got that working once08:45
* flaccid is listening to Life Goes On by House of Pain on Fine Malt Lyrics-rgo [Amarok]08:45
flaccid^^ thats over the network sorry to do it but08:45
flaccidhi: yeah bugs are important in this case because its purely open source..08:45
bdizzleeh, perhaps, but with the exception of pulling up the titles and such for incomplete music or loading the coverart, I'm not too concerned about that08:46
bdizzlealthough it would be cool to get some sort of streaming internet radio built into it somehow08:46
flaccidthat might be more optional in amarok 2.0 hopefully08:46
flaccidbdizzle: there is streaming radio built into amarok already08:46
bdizzlethere is? where?08:47
flaccidin the playlists tab08:47
flaccida lot of digitally imported links by default..08:47
bdizzleoooh, I didn't see that there, cool08:47
flaccidcoolio08:47
alexbobpIs there a way to forcibly detach non-alsa programs from my sound hardware without having to find and kill the offending processes?08:47
flaccidbut in this case, you might get a no demux/input error which is said to be a bug in shoutcast server not the xine plugin to which is bloody annoying!08:48
flaccidalexbobp: i havnt found one yet as it locks the /dev/dsp or whatever..08:48
* hi is listening to Mo Chailin Dileas Donn.mp3 after running mkdir /mnt/ftpfolder1 && curlftpfs ftp://192.168.1.156/music :P08:49
hinot quite the same as "click, mount" but meh... those amarok / kde bugs have been open for ages08:49
LilSargeHmm, i think its a memory problem. Firefox works...just really slow.08:49
flaccidthats quite manual :p08:50
bdizzleI think that's another issue that is causing people to worry about Linux. Instictually, they see command line, they run08:51
hiwell, for good reason08:52
hithere's *nothing* intuitive about a comman prompt08:52
bdizzlegranted, I try to avoid it because I don't know what I'm doing with it and don't want to inadvertantly screw up my system (sudo or no sudo)08:52
hiit's a black window with no guidance08:52
hia GUI has options to select from etc08:52
bdizzlebut if I've got someone telling me what code to punch in, I'm safer08:52
bdizzleyeah08:52
flaccidbdizzle: without bugs kde has got that pretty much unecessary08:53
flaccidwell desktop/UI theory will suggest CLI should be abstracted to the least from the user08:53
* flaccid im writing a book atm on kubuntu08:54
flaccidoops08:54
bdizzlehaha, someone helped me on the ubuntu forums with the java error, I think08:54
hiflaccid: subconsiously your nick / description of kde's readiness reminds me of a sex change analogy08:55
hi"without bugs, kde has got that pretty much unecessary08:56
hiit goes "Yeah, and my best friend could put on silk panties and tell me he was in the early stages of a sex change, but it doesn't mean I'd want to kiss him."08:56
hibesides, that's the motto of vaporware08:56
bdizzlesweet, I got the java error fixed!08:56
hicool beans08:56
bdizzleit was an error in firefox, where it didn't recognize that the JRE was in fact installed08:57
hiwhat kind of error?08:57
bdizzleso let's see, Hardy "forgot" I had a delete key, didn't load JRE properly in firefox, and still can't load a C++ program because it compiles into an .exe08:57
flaccidhi: sex changes are usually 'hard' not 'soft'08:57
bdizzlelol08:58
himeh, the hormones might be a gray area lol08:58
flaccidbdizzle: how you fix it sorry08:58
hiphysiology or psychology... hmm, but i'll regress quickly here lol08:58
flaccidbdizzle: can you tell me where you went in config to get firefox to pick up the jre?08:59
bdizzlehttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4908916#post490891608:59
hiah, i wondered if that's what the issue was08:59
hiyou symlinked the plugins folder to something ff would find?08:59
bdizzlesee, I had no clue where to start09:00
bdizzleI'm having to re-learn how to use a computer, which actually kinda interesting09:00
hii should have chimed in, but i just saw the middle of the convo so assumed i was missing something09:00
flaccidbdizzle: ah so it is a bug afterall dang!09:00
flaccidyeah so /usr/lib should be global etc..09:00
bdizzleokay, so can someone decipher what that code actually did to fix my system?09:00
hiyou created a dir (mkdir)09:01
hiln -s linked the one dir to the other09:01
flaccidyeah its using user plugins instead of globally shared which defeats the purpose of the package the plugin is in etc...09:01
hiso ff sees that directory as a mirror of the other directory's contents09:01
bdizzlelike links lists in C++ ?09:01
hiflaccid: true09:01
flacciddisregard c++...09:02
bdizzlelol09:02
flaccidits a locality thing on the fs09:02
bdizzlegotcha09:02
bdizzleok, another strange question.09:02
bdizzleone would think if I have the Konversation window on top of the Firefox window, when I click to the side on the Firefox window, the Konversation window should go behind the Firefox window09:03
bdizzlemine doesn't09:03
flaccidbdizzle: you can right click and go advanced - keep above or below09:04
hiactually, bdizzle, thanks for the reminder on that. i couldn't remember the symlink command when i was installing icecat (which also wouldn't see any plugins outside it's ./plugins dir) and i just duplicated the files out of laziness vs looking up how to symlink. cheers, for saving me6mb hdd space :)09:04
hithis was just 40 mins ago :)09:04
bdizzlelol, yay for 6 MB of hard drive space?09:05
bdizzlespace is cheap these days09:05
hiwell, that was in jest ;)09:05
bdizzlelol09:05
bdizzleyeah, that works for Konversation, except the problem is global09:05
hithe other benefit of symlinking is if you install global plugins, they're show up in the other dir w/o one having to go copy them again all the time to 2+ dirs09:05
bdizzlelike two firefox windows on top of each other09:06
flaccidyeah but locations like /usr/share for example are designed for um sharing09:06
hii set the scroll wheel to do that (scroll up = above, scrol down = below).09:06
bdizzleum share?09:06
hiyeah, but icecat doesn't share :(09:07
flaccidthere are quite a few share folders in linux systems via hier09:07
hiyou know, i find kde has a lot of really power-user features over gnome so far09:08
bdizzleboohbah, how'd you hide your IP and such?09:08
hihowever, stuff is really buggy09:08
bdizzleI think that's why I like KDE over GNOME is that it does have the strong GUI programs09:09
hilike, sometimes i login and nothing loads into the kicker panel... wtf!09:09
bdizzleI had to reformat Hardy today after doing the upgrade a week ago from Gutsy because Kicker was giving me so many problems09:09
bdizzleI had to tell Kubuntu to load Kicker as a startup program09:09
hisheesh, really!?09:10
hidon't tell me that, this is a 2.5 week old install!09:10
hilol09:10
bdizzleeven then it wouldn't give me the icons next to the clock and such09:10
hiyeah, that's the issue i'm having09:10
bdizzlewhich on a desktop is managable. But on a laptop, when you are worried about battery life ... not good09:10
hiright now, nothing appears. i can't change wifi, bluetooth, power options etc over half the time. i just logout, login a couple of times and it works... no notable rhyme or reason.09:11
bdizzlegah, what is that program I used to search the system09:11
hiright, i'm on a laptop bdizzle. exactly right, this kills an extra 8w sometimes!09:11
histrigi?09:11
bdizzleit was sorta like Find Files and Folders in windows09:11
bdizzleno, stringi doesn't really cut it for me09:11
hikfind?09:11
bdizzlemight be09:11
flaccidstrigi has never worked for me. another blunder.09:12
Boohbahbdizzle: i asked nicely after being a member for many years...09:12
hiyeah, well i filed bugs on deskbar09:12
bdizzlehaha, okay09:12
bdizzleI was just curious, it seemed interesting09:12
hithen i noticed the bugs were open / closed 4x since 200509:13
hii haven't tried strigi, but if it's anything like deskbar i'm keeping it WAY away from my kde profile as it damaged everything in its path for me09:13
bdizzlehas anyone noticed how a program will say its installed in Adept, but not installed when you check via Add/Remove Programs?09:13
hiah, add/remove programs is sort of the simple version of the repos09:14
hii just use adept, unless i'm lookin for limited options (ie when i type "svg" and don't want 30 svg libsb, but instead the two apps xara and inkblot or whatever that thing is called)09:15
bdizzleso other than stringi, which searches for individual files, what program would i use to just pull up folders that have the same name as the search phrase?09:15
hiagain, kfind09:16
bdizzleits showing up as the KDE-4 version of kfind in my Add/Remove09:16
bdizzleeven though I only have KDE 3.5.909:16
hishould be installed then09:16
hijust type alt+f209:16
hithen type kfind09:16
bdizzleah, yes, that's the program I'm looking for09:17
hi;)09:17
bdizzlewhy isn't he on my K-menu?09:17
hilol, good question09:17
hii was talking to someone on here earlier that prolly thought i was some lamer newbie for asking that09:17
hithat's how i remembered kfind09:18
bdizzlelol09:18
hiHe said "click find in the k menu" "why isn't it in my kmenu?" "uh, are you running kubuntu?" "duh" "try kfind then" "cool, thx" :)09:18
alexbobpis kfind a slocate frontend?09:18
higo fig09:18
bdizzlewell, when you are used to being able to pull all kinds of tricks out of your hat to get windows to customize and all that09:18
hino, it's a find frontend ;)09:18
bdizzleand then try linux just for the hell of it, you gotta strap on the training wheels for a while09:19
hiyeah, for sure09:19
alexbobphi: that's a joke, right?09:19
alexbobpIt could be something more complex.  Strigi uses it's own engine, right?09:19
flaccidyeah strigi is a daemon09:19
bdizzleok, so another strange thing. How do I go about adding my own shortcuts onto the K-menu?09:20
hi[01:18] <alexbobp> is kfind a slocate frontend?09:20
bdizzleie, creating an icon in Utilities for kfind?09:20
hiit's a "find" frontend09:20
hino joke09:20
histrigi is something entirely different09:20
alexbobpfind as in the command-line find that just looks through everything every time I search?09:20
hiyes09:21
hithe old as dirt unix tool09:21
alexbobpwouldn't that be slow then?09:21
hiyes09:21
hi(?)09:21
bdizzlewait, got it09:21
hiit's not meant for "search my whole 1tb hard drive for x file"09:21
alexbobpah.09:21
hithat's what strigi etc is for09:21
hino joke ;)09:21
bdizzlein KControl, go to Desktop -> Panels -> Menus, selected under OPtional Menuses "Find"09:21
alexbobpokay, I believe you, I was just making sure...09:21
bdizzlethat will load kfind onto the kmenu so you don't go looking for it09:22
* hi gets hopes up at bdizzle's comment and checks menu!09:22
bdizzleI'm surprised it isn't default09:22
* hi remembers he's using kbfx and not k-menu09:22
hi:P09:22
bdizzlehaha09:22
bdizzleI've heard of kbfx, but never could get it to work09:23
bdizzleor really understood the purpose / difference of it09:23
hinaw seriously, i still use alt-f1 to access the old kmenu for a few things. find will now be one of them, cheers :)09:23
hiah, kbfx is nice09:23
bdizzle*tries alt-f1 and gets no response09:23
hiit indexes the menu, so you can click on the button and start typing to limit your options ala quicksilver for os-x09:24
hihmm, alt-f1 is default (ymmv, as we find out here!) for opening the kmenu at your cursor09:24
bdizzlegreat, another key that doesn't work09:25
bdizzleI've had it set to Ctrl + Esc, since just hitting the windows key didn't work09:26
flaccidyou have to enable windows shortcuts for win key to work09:26
hiwhoa, ctrl+esc opened up a task manager!09:26
flaccidyeah ksysguard09:26
bdizzlelol09:26
hisweet! i've been missing that from other unmentionable operating systems!09:26
flaccidhehhe09:27
bdizzleI've got Ctrl+Alt+Del to open task manager and Ctrl+Alt+End to open the logoff menu09:27
flaccidthats a bit crazy but cool heh09:27
bdizzleI'm surprised by now that Windows, Mac, and Linux hasn't adopted a common set of key shortcuts09:27
hictrl+alt_del restarts my computer, backspace X09:27
flaccidbdizzle: nothing to be suprised about. they are commercial.09:28
bdizzleother than the typical Ctrl + C, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+P09:28
flaccidits competition09:28
hictrl+alt+end sounds like it'd do something mean and dirty along those lines so i wont' test it :)09:28
sponixbdizzle: Yeah... Umm... About That ...09:28
bdizzlewell, you're telling it to end your session09:28
bdizzlelol, about what?09:28
hiafaik it's NIH syndrom http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_Invented_Here09:29
hi:)09:29
sponixbdizzle: Why would Linux, or any *nix want to adopt something similar to Windows ?09:29
bdizzleto make instructions just a little easier to understand?09:29
flaccidbdizzle: thats not their objective..09:29
flaccidits quite the opposite09:30
hibesides, in kde you can select templates of key configs to most anything out there09:30
bdizzleI mean, I see that Apple Command key as the same as the windows key for many things on the mac09:30
hii have to say, i miss the way os-x uses the alt key to put accents on  things and such09:30
bdizzlenow what would be cute would be if they had stickers to put over the windows key with the Ubuntu circle logo09:30
hialt+` then whatever key i want to apply a ` over... pretty straightforward relative to the windows world's "remember an index of acii codes and type alt+00124"09:31
sponixbdizzle: Objective for _Most_ other Operating Systems is to be the _Best_ they can at whatever their communities, or users need/want .. And if you haven't noticed, Windows doesn't do a very good job at that ;)09:31
flaccidwell i like calling such a key 'option' or something similar that is generic09:31
bdizzleeh, they did for XP09:31
flaccidits not about their community its about ownership09:31
hibdizzle: great idea w/ the stickers!09:31
bdizzleVista and Windows 7 on the other hand....09:31
sponixbdizzle: Seen Tux for the Windows key, but not the Ubuntu logo _yet_09:31
bdizzlenice09:31
flaccidyeah the key should just be 'option' or something09:32
bdizzleor worse, MS's next version of Office is going to be a subscription plan from what I heard09:32
hiwhy won't ms office die?09:32
bdizzleat the very least, OO needs to catch up to Office 2003, then start branching out and making its own stuff that MS only wishes it could do09:32
bdizzlebecause its actually useful?09:33
bdizzleOffice and DirectX are two things I have to give MS credit for09:33
hiwell, i'm not the "office" type09:33
flaccidhi: why would it die heh09:33
hibut, it seems it's around for the same reason most things are around ppl09:33
flaccidim not sure what there is to catch up to09:33
bdizzlewell, until I can figure out how to do presentations in LaTeX....09:33
hi"because it just is" vs "because it's the best product"09:34
flaccidbdizzle: you do understand that directx is totally their thing and not required09:34
bdizzleno, I do09:34
bdizzlebut I also know that since most games these days are built off of it09:34
flaccidim not sure what latex has to do with oasis doc formats..09:34
bdizzleand Wine isn't perfect yet in *not emulating DirectX09:34
flaccidbdizzle: no point there. openGL and other techs are um open and standard...09:34
bdizzletrue09:34
flaccidbdizzle: wine shouldn't even exist.09:34
flaccidthe open formats and suites like Ooo are fine.09:35
bdizzlewell, let me run up to the store and go buy a copy of Halo or Diablo and get it to run on OpenGL then ....09:35
bdizzleI agree they are good09:36
flaccidbdizzle: have a think about whos fault it is for not developing in open standards...09:36
flaccidthe vendor.09:36
bdizzlepoint taken09:36
hisadly, a good portion  of my local friends work in direct x at ms09:36
bdizzleunforutnately, vendors look at $$$, which means which market is going to have the greatest potential09:36
flaccidhave a look at nexuiz. it works on most platforms with one .zip and separate binaries for teh OS09:36
hinothing amazingly creative in direct x over open gl imho09:37
flaccidbdizzle: exactly09:37
flaccidits about the money09:37
hiit's a matter of development hype, buzz and thus (yes) money09:37
bdizzlewindows, which carries about 85% of consumer market, vs mac, that carries 13% of consumer desktops, vs linux, that runs 2%09:37
hibeing co-opted by MS for vendor lock-in, more than dx being superior to gl etc09:37
bdizzlewhy would they go out and port their game over to Linux unless they felt that every single linux user would go out and buy it09:37
bdizzletrue09:38
sponixbdizzle: Well, I have to disagree a bit... Think some vendors are now looking at Potential for future market share, instead of current market shares... IBM, HP, Sun, Dell, Asus, And others Shipping with Linux for Example09:38
hiwell, as it is all hardware for i386 i know of supports opengl09:38
hiso there's no real downside for developers not using direct x09:38
bdizzleI remember when I got my laptop back in March, I kept going to all the standard vendors (Dell, HP, gateway, Toshiba, Acer, etc) and telling them, look this is my budget, and I only have one requirement: it can't have Vista on it09:38
hisave for less M$ interest, naturally09:39
flacciddirect x is microsoft. seems like a massive downfall to me.09:39
bdizzleGateway and HP laughed at me09:39
sponixbdizzle: Linux is still at a 1% Market share or less, But these companies rolling it out with site of future Market share growth is making a big difference09:39
bdizzletrue09:39
hisure there's xbox, but that's the minority of consoles even09:39
bdizzleyeah, most people are playing Wii or PS309:39
flaccidxbox is cut down win200009:39
hiso opengl works with windows, linux, os-x, and most consoles... honestly, why use dx?!09:39
bdizzleI'm curious why most developers still base everything on it too09:40
bdizzleif it is so functional, then why do they bother?09:40
flaccidmarket share, business logic etc.09:40
sponixhi: Doesn't that make you sick ? OpenGL should be the _standard_09:40
flaccidits not about functionality its about money09:40
level1_how can I tunnel sound over ssh?  Is that possible?09:40
level1_also, what ssh like standard uses the least bandwidth?  VNC?  RDP?09:41
hisponix: yes09:41
* hi gets sick and barfs on dx09:41
flaccidlevel1_: not sure. most likely vnc. rdp is m$ only09:41
sponixhi: But, since Microsoft makes DirectX and they are the OS of choice for 98% of commercial Gamers, it has killed off OpenGL and gaming possibilities on Other Platforms :(09:41
flaccidthey have nothing to do with ssh however09:41
level1_flaccid: can can be used for some of the things I want to use ssh for09:41
level1_flaccid: thats what i meant09:41
zeno__I'm trying to upgrade to hardy, but im getting errors; http://pastebin.com/m6a6ce1c609:41
level1_whats kubuntu's vnc client?09:42
flaccidssh is simply the tunnel. it comes down to the protocol. both can potentially support sound09:42
sponixflaccid: What ! *nix is where vnc started, and several things have rdp, virtualbox for example09:42
flaccidlevel1_: krdc09:42
flaccidsponix: look up the history of RDP09:42
flaccidor point me to a unix rdp server09:42
hidoes kubuntu count? :)09:42
flaccidkubuntu does not have an rdp server.09:43
bdizzleum, about that upgrade, it might be better to just d/l the .iso and go off of that09:43
sponixflaccid: RDP is a Windows based "Remote Desktop Protocol" .. I know09:43
hixrdp09:43
bdizzleit still tends to have problems going the direct upgrade route09:43
flaccidplease see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Desktop_Protocol09:43
sponixflaccid: tightvnc is nice09:43
flaccidues exact;u sponix. windows and no linux server let alone *nix09:43
hiafaik, xrdp works and is in kubuntu main repos09:43
flaccidsponix: yeah its what i use for server on *nix09:44
sponixflaccid: my point, why use "MS" rdp for a *nix box, when VNC is available ?09:44
flaccid!info xrdp09:44
ubottuxrdp (source: xrdp): Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) server. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.0~dfsg-3 (hardy), package size 193 kB, installed size 688 kB09:44
flaccidsponix: wasn't that my point?09:44
flaccidhmm that must be fairly new09:44
sponixand there are TightVNC servers and clients for both Windows and *nix09:45
flaccidyes i know that...09:45
sponixflaccid: ... Hmm, maybe I missed the actual point ;)09:45
hiwell or even nx (nomachine) since vnc comared to rdp is not even close... vnc is just a rasterized image of the screen unlike forwarding x to the other machine09:45
flaccidah yeah xrdp is very recent and not devel very much at all09:45
zeno__I'm trying to upgrade to hardy, but im getting errors; http://pastebin.com/m6a6ce1c609:45
flaccidmy point is that rdp is microsoft09:45
hivnc is really only useful for os-x, since there's no rdp/remote x/nx options09:45
sponixflaccid: Yep, We have client/server XP boxen with TightVNC here at my workplace (Army)09:45
flaccidhi: incorrect. vnc is rfb and abstracted from teh X11 layer09:45
flaccidvnc is useful for an *nix09:46
flaccidany*09:46
hiehm, i disagree09:46
hinx is much faster09:46
sponixflaccid: of course, you could just fwd an X session or program through ssh as well, just as easy ;)09:46
hiagain, like rdp (but better) it forwards window commands etc so bandwidth is 4k-100k vs 9mb09:47
flaccidhttp://xrdp.sourceforge.net/documents/xrdpdesign/index.html <--- still a far way to go...09:47
hii can run a 1920x1200x24b connection over the net on nx09:47
flaccidsponix: yeah but thats not what we are talking about thus my point09:47
hior rdp09:47
zeno__!dependency09:47
ubottuFactoid dependency not found09:47
hi:P09:47
flaccid!freenx09:48
ubottuFreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX09:48
sponix... I must drop out then, because I'm still not getting the point *Grin*09:48
flaccidat the end of the day, whatver works is probably fine as long as its in a secure channel09:48
flaccidi don't know of any pointsin this convo really09:48
flaccidbut as a side point have a look how limited xrdp is atm: http://xrdp.sourceforge.net/documents/xrdpdesign/index.html09:49
hihere's some: VNC is slow and aweful if you're displaying a GUI, RDP is way better but not available on Mac only, freenx rocks all09:49
flaccidthat doesn't make sense hi and is incorrect09:49
hialso, if you're not displaying video, then use Synergy instead09:49
himeh, believe what you want09:50
flaccideg. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=147581409:50
* hi doesn't care09:50
flaccidits not about you hi09:50
flaccidnor is it about me either09:50
sponixI don't remote a gui very often, but TightVNC, or ssh has always done what I need just fine... I will try FreeNX sometime though09:50
=== JackWinter_ is now known as JackWinter
hiyeah, the hextile mapping common for vnc is just too much for the internet09:51
hiit's highly sensitve to latency and high cpu load on either client or server side09:51
flaccidi do vnc over ssh or vpn over the internet just fine09:51
bdizzleso what kind of things do they have planned for Ibex?09:51
hiibex?09:52
bdizzleedition after Hardy09:52
bdizzlenot that I am entirely looking forward to upgrading again, but KDE4 just looks so pretty and I'm waiting for 4.1 to come out09:52
hiah, xrdp on os-x. my "/me doesn't care " was a follow on my last line and due to lag seemed like a resonse to your link. no offense, lag...09:52
hii'll actually make use of that url tomorrow!09:53
hihttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Desktop_Protocol#Version_history09:54
hihttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_remote_desktop_software for the un-initiated09:55
wesleykde4.0.4 is not as good as 4,0,309:58
hi?09:58
bdizzlewhat, is it getting worse/09:58
bdizzleI thought it was supposed to become more stable with each incremental release09:58
hiif you found a regression, find/file a bug report09:59
hihonestly, there's almost no diff i can see09:59
bdizzlewhere do we go for bug reports?09:59
wesleyyes i yesterday istalled and reported more bugs then in 4.0.309:59
bdizzleand how can we get desktop widgets on KDE 3.5.9 ?09:59
wesleywww.launchpad.net09:59
flaccidhehe10:00
hiactually, speaking of widgets.. this "Get Hot New Stuff" crap bugs me10:00
hiwhere is it!?10:00
hifaik it's a lib w/o much use10:00
sponixhonestly, with all these updates, can't Ubuntu just xdelta from one deb to the next, instead of downloading a whole new package each time !10:00
hiyes, that'd be smarter10:01
hiheard of jigdo btw?10:01
sponixwould save Petabytes of Net Traffic I'm sure !10:01
hior deb-torrent etc10:01
bdizzleI'm mostly just looking for weather and maybe tv listings like I had with Yahoo Widgets10:01
hinone of these ever get picked up10:01
bdizzlexdelta?10:01
wesleybut i dont know of its kubuntu,s fault for messing op kde4.0.4 or kde10:01
sgroverwireless problem.  Works fine on my access point.  Not on some others.  Can see the desired access point, but when I connect to it, it just times out.10:02
sponixNo, but if it is similar, and can patch from one tarBall to another, it would be smart10:02
sgrover(don't have access to the troublesome access point(s) at the moment though...)10:02
sgroverAny tips?10:02
sponixdownloading 17Meg of Evolution crap, for the 32K change in source for security is nutty imho, when they have TarBall && binary patch programs out there10:03
hiyeah, it bugs the crap out of me too10:03
sponixEffort to push Linux crap to 3rd world countries would be much better10:03
hiit's so wasteful of bw (mine and theirs)10:03
* flaccid uses Opera.10:04
sponixI'm in Iraq right now, and net cost me $75 a Month for 1Gig Download and 512Meg Upload limit, after that it throttles your speed to 7K/s or less10:04
hilol, true. someone d/l the 60mb of stuff for the kde4 upgrade i got a day ago was assinine10:04
sponixI don't like to Rant, but it is about freaking time some one addresses this issue10:05
sgroversponix: try on my cell phone data plan.... $50 / MEG10:05
hisponix: i agree10:05
sponixWhy are we settling for 2nd best, our updates could be done faster, and the Net as a whole less clogged10:05
flaccidi pay $140AU per month for 60GB of u/l d/l which is rort10:05
hievery time i've tried to get help on that, ppl say "what's the point?" and "bandwidth is cheap"10:05
hibugs me...10:05
sponixShould be saving our BW for pr0n !10:06
flaccidi dont' know what your point is hi10:06
hiflaccid: thanks for sharing :P10:06
flaccidcare to confirm your point10:06
hisponix: have you looked into using rsync?10:06
sponixpoint is BW isn't cheap _everywhere_10:06
hiright, or anywhere when we're talking about saving many terabytes of data10:07
sgroversooo... no tech support at the moment for wireless problems??  :)10:07
flaccidwell thats obvious. im sure is very expensive in the developing nations if available at all10:07
sponixhi: still rsync's the whole new .deb package, not like it applies the 32/64K diff from one .deb to another10:07
bdizzlewhy isn't bandwidth cheap these days?10:07
sgroversponix: then take the one time hit, d/l the source, then just get the patches as they come out.10:08
hibdizzle:because ppl suffer companies like comcast in the US10:08
sponixbdizzle: in Iraq, there is no fiber, or copper backbones/lines, the Ground is so damn hard for one, it is near impossible to run it, so Everything is Sat Based, and that cost a shit ton for Sat Time10:08
sgroveryou obviously know a little more about Linux per se, so perhaps *buntu isn't quite aimed at users like yourself...  :)10:08
sponixhi: ComCast is a godsend compared to say Honduras, or Iraq10:08
bdizzleouch10:09
hiwell, yeah... i guess my gripe-in-point is about the privatisation of commercial telecommunications in general.10:09
sgroversponix: not trying to be confrontational - in general I agree with your point... :)10:09
flaccidnot all countries/parts of the world have luxuries. after all internet is a luxury :)10:09
hibut yeah, geographic considerations like yours will probably keep the topic on track :)10:09
sponixsgrover: Well. here they are, saying they want OLPC in 3rd world countries and crap, but I just did 100+Meg of Security updates on Hardy already, don't see a school in Iraq doing that10:10
bdizzleinternet is almost a neccesity10:10
flaccidnot when the world is divided10:10
* hi avoids geo-political discussion10:10
sponixbdizzle: I feel that way as well, but a lot of the world it is still a "Luxury"10:10
sgroversponix: you don't see a school doing 100Meg of updates for Ubuntu, but they wouldn't mind the corresponding bandwidth for Windows?  That argument doesn't really float... :)10:10
hiso does anyone know of a way to access these updates in an incremental, just-the-differences of similar files way?10:11
sgroverif the argument is simply that the updates would not be done - regardless of platform, then that's a little more understandable.... :)10:11
hisgrover: nobody is being a windows fanboy10:11
sponixsgrover: My point is, Linux should do "Better" than MS ... This would be an "Advantage" it would/should have over others10:11
bdizzleI think most people still update windows because windows update automatically naggs you if you try to ignore it10:11
hisgrover: windows sucks, os-x sucks, and here's where linux could shine10:11
sponixsgrover: and that *nix OS's should do this, to help reach out to the ends of the world better than MS10:11
sgroverbdizzle: only if you have the Nag option checked (which you have to manually turn off)10:12
flaccidmy g/f is on wireless which is only option despite in a city. she pays 5X here monthly rental on download thus costing here more than a car does. its pathetic and this is a developed nation.10:12
bdizzlelol10:12
flaccidhave a look up on the internet how pathetic broadband is in australia..10:12
sgroversponix: don't get me wrong - I agree that these patch differences can/should be done.  Just trying to help you refine the argument... :)10:12
sponix... I do hate MS and Windows with a passion, but my goal isn't to bash them... Just saying this is a place *nix could do better, and easily do it10:13
flaccidsponix: sorrr what to do better?10:13
hiflaccid: yeah, i always wondered about australia. their geography would tend to limit this a tad?10:13
flaccidhi: not when you live sydney where i do. no excuse when the backbone goes straight to our city.10:13
sponixflaccid: roll out a update system that does TarBall patches like xdelta, to save tons of BW for people/countries10:13
sgroverwe don't have to "hate" the other OS's to favor *nix.  Some of us still need to work in both worlds... :)10:13
hihmm10:14
bdizzleyeah, how is internet service down there?10:14
flaccidregional is different. this is in capital cities.10:14
hii'm sure fiber is laid at this point, but it's probably more monopolised than in other prts10:14
flaccidsponix: totally different to the debian system10:14
flaccidinternet here can be good, but way too many issues to talk about..10:14
flaccidno fibre to consumers here on a real scale yet at all10:15
bdizzlesuch as?10:15
flaccidim on cable and its a rip off...10:15
eagles05lol whose ur isp flaccid10:15
hiactually, instead of downloading distro .iso's has anyone used jigdo files?10:15
flaccidum dsl10:15
flaccidold copper10:15
flaccidlack of upstream10:15
flaccidlack of maintenence on networks10:15
hijigdo always crashes for me so i always resort to torrents10:15
flaccidrenting out to service providers10:15
flaccidpair gain issues10:15
flaccidthe list goes on10:15
eagles05ur lucky flaccid u dont have monthly download limits and im on cable 2mb down 256 up10:16
flaccideagles05: i am on that10:16
flacciddepends which connectin you talking about i have heh10:16
eagles05im hoping to eventually start my own isp using kubuntu based server10:16
eagles05i have 10gb monthly download10:16
noaXessis it normal in hardy, that the print job queue will not be cleared after printing?.. and the icon is still in systray?10:16
flaccidwe all have monthly download limits in australia anyway10:16
hihmm... something is wrong with my sleep schedule that i'm always talking to australians on here :-/10:16
flaccideagles05: kubuntu is not a server.10:16
eagles05noaXess: yes its like that with my hp10:16
sgroverhi: me too... I'm in Western Canada... :)10:16
flaccidits 7:15pm here10:16
eagles05flaccid: lol well u know what im talking bout use it as the os10:17
noaXesshm.. a bug? or is there a setting10:17
eagles05noaXess: dunno havent used my printer on here in a while10:17
hisgrover: Quarter past two here, Seattle :)10:17
flaccideagles05: ubuntu is not a server OS10:17
sgroverflaccid: 3:17am here10:17
flaccidouch10:17
eagles05O_o what u mean10:17
noaXessha.. 11:17 am here :)10:17
eagles05noaXess: u in central europe10:17
sgroverhehe... er.. flaccid.. just curious... what DAY ??10:17
noaXessyes10:17
noaXessch10:17
flaccidits thursday night10:18
eagles05kool malta here noaXess10:18
noaXess?10:18
flaccidi mean ubuntu is not respected as a server operating system at all10:18
noaXesseagles05: you're in malta?10:18
sgroverflaccid: hmmm... maybe time travel is possible.. it's still morning here... and Wednesday for me cuz I haven't slept yet.. LOL10:18
eagles05noaXess:  yep10:18
noaXessflaccid: ut you can use it as server.. i think there is a server version of ubuntu10:18
flaccidnoaXess: yes i've tested it.10:19
eagles05ya but i dunno y i like gui and kde desktop10:19
noaXesseagles05: holiday.. or do you live there?10:19
flaccidi generally run respected server operating systems like freebsd10:19
eagles05noaXess: normally from us but im here for school10:19
eagles05what bout centos510:19
flaccida desktop environment != an operating system!10:19
sgrovereagles05: you can put a gui on the server version.10:20
sgroverOR you can just apt-get install the server kernel10:20
flaccidif you can tell me why a server needs a GUI, please let me know :)10:20
hisgrover: our sleep schedules match lol10:20
sgrover(you loose sound support, and some video capabilities though)10:20
eagles05sgrover: how10:20
flaccidunless its a desktop server to serv X11 etc.10:20
flaccidie. think clients.10:20
flaccidthin10:20
sgroverflaccid: install the server, install X, but you don't necessarily need to have a running X desktop on the server to serve up X sessions... (just the X service running - I think)10:21
flaccidsgrover: yes i know. that was my point.10:21
flaccid!thinclient10:21
ubottuFactoid thinclient not found10:21
flaccidcang10:21
noaXessflaccid: but you can install ubuntu and disable gdm..10:21
flaccidhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinClientHowto10:21
flaccidnoaXess: thats working backwards10:22
noaXess?10:22
eagles05im not as advanced as most im still working on linux certification have yet to work on a linux box in a network environment10:22
flaccideagles05: debian is better suited as a server10:22
eagles05has anyone else downloaded amarok2 nightly10:22
sgroverflaccid: I've been running Ubuntu server for the past 2 years.  Never a problem that wasn't caused by the sys admin (me), or hardware failure.10:22
eagles05flaccid:  isnt ubuntu/kubuntu debian based10:22
noaXesssgrover: me to..10:22
noaXesstoo10:22
eagles05lol10:22
flaccidsgrover: i've run it for about 3.5 years as testing. google the security problems ubuntu server has had...10:23
noaXessus it also for virtual systems10:23
flaccideagles05: yes it is. debian has a longer release cycle to give it more stability.10:23
noaXessflaccid: then close the holes..10:23
flaccidand the userland is different!10:23
flaccidnoaXess: im not an ubuntu developer10:23
eagles05me neither10:23
sgroverflaccid: understood.  But the reason I switched to Ubuntu from Gentoo was the maintenance time needed...10:23
hisponix: have you found an uncompressed tarball repository for debian etc?10:23
eagles05i am planning on creating my own cluster distro based on kubuntu10:23
flaccidgentoo is far different in terms of setup. thats why debian has an installer and is more out of the box than gentoo10:24
sgroverthat and doing an apt-get update/upgrade rarely breaks the system.  Gentoo's emerge world would need manual intervention to configure the .conf files.10:24
flaccidouch10:24
hisponix: because an incremental d/l would then be possible with rsync it seems. i'm checking into the syntax now...10:24
* flaccid is a freebsd user.10:24
sgroverflaccid: agreed.  Gentoo is source based.  Much different perspectives involved.10:24
flaccidnot necessarily source based as binaries available. gentoobsd intrests me but yeah..10:25
noaXessflaccid: and hwo do you use kubuntu if you are a freebsd user?10:25
noaXessor when..10:25
flaccidnoaXess: i use linux as desktop as bsd vendor support is worse off for us than linux...10:25
sgrover:) Gentoo has changed much since I last installed it.  But getting better...  Still I'll stick with Ubuntu for the reduced maintenance time...10:25
eagles05kde4 desktop looks like open suse's current kde3.510:26
hiactually, what's the upside to gentoo?10:26
flaccidsgrover: its not really maintenance, its setup - installation/post installation but yeah10:26
flaccideagles05: possibly because opensuse made some contribs10:26
sgrovernoaXess: one of the local guys is in the same boat.  Runs *bsd for his servers, but *buntu for the desktops.10:26
eagles05possible its the only distro that will semi run on my new laptop10:26
hii tried it long ago when i had slow harware, so the philosophy of no binaries was a bottleneck. i have a faster computer now so i might be interested10:26
flaccidhi: its better than ubuntu. but thats simply my general opinion. i don't use it but10:26
eagles05kubuntu x wont work10:26
sgroverrather common for those who are security conscious, and more UNIX thinking than Linux thinknig10:27
eagles05and it hangs during format and installation and never installs properly10:27
hiflaccid: how's gentoo better though?10:27
flaccidhi: i compile on my p2 300mhz bsd server and yeah it does take ages but i just wait days heh10:27
flaccidhi: less bugs imo10:27
flaccidless bs10:27
hiah10:27
flaccidless forking10:27
eagles05flaccid: cluster it with something else10:27
hilol, i was bitching on a 500Mhz cpu...10:27
flacciddepends what implementation of clustering and what for10:27
* flaccid pats his kristine she goes very well10:27
sgrovertime for sleep.  Night all...  I'll check back tomorrow re: my wireless issues.10:28
flaccidkristine before was ubuntu dapper server ouch10:28
flaccidnight10:28
hiditto here, i'm running off to sleep at a nice 1/2 past 2a thurs morning. cheerz all :)10:28
eagles05lol10:28
eagles05flaccid: the os im goign to start creating im going to work on for those entierly new to clustering10:29
eagles05basically work on making it as much plug and play with minor configuration10:29
flaccidyeah eagles05 my point is why are you clustering and what for? what model/configuration is the clustering?10:29
eagles05have u ever run those boinc projects10:30
flaccidyeah10:30
flaccidboinc is from bsd iirc10:30
casper__just installed kde been using ubuntu for about 6 months, i think i like the change :)10:30
flaccid!seti10:30
ubottuFactoid seti not found10:30
flaccidcasper__: nice :)10:30
casper__whats this plasma file though...its in my lost and found? i hate not know what things are10:31
eagles05i have as well i am a member of a number of the projects in clustering u r able to run the same data set basically the larger the dataset in a cluster the less time it will take10:31
flaccidcasper__: not sure why a plasma file is there. you could ask #kde i guess10:31
eagles05then i wanna try get into the rendering farm business for 3d animations10:32
eagles05and huge renderings10:32
eagles05data analysis10:32
eagles05just about anything clusterable10:32
flaccideagles05: a lot of p2p and clustering research was done at my uni. all i can say is that its a newish realm but the quality of the OS and its kernel/procesing makes a big difference...10:33
flaccidsomone had 50 identical pIIIs hooked up for a range of experiments10:33
eagles05flaccid: thanks for the advice ill keep it under consideration10:34
flaccideagles05: just do some tests for yourself i guess in the right constant enviro10:34
eagles05ya10:34
eagles05right now i have not even begun to work on it i still have one more exam to go10:34
eagles05then i need to start learning c++10:34
flaccidas usual this kind of stuff relies on a huge amount of different variables10:35
flaccideagles05: do the c++ with qt410:35
flaccidthats a really good practical way of learning10:35
eagles05ok10:35
eagles05isnt qt4 something u need for kde410:35
flaccidyes is the gui toolkit component10:35
eagles05kool10:36
eagles05i need to download kde410:36
flaccidie. qt kills gtk :)10:36
eagles05cuz amarok-nightly isnt working on kde3 for me10:36
flaccideagles05: give it a shot. i've reverted to ke3 because of limitations/bugs10:36
flaccidthey exist without problem in theory10:36
flaccidwhats amarok-nightly atm. 1.4 or 2.0 ?10:36
casper__any1 know how to update from kde 4.0 to 4.04......kde group isnt helping10:37
eagles05210:37
flaccidcasper__: adept manager or apt-get should be fine, do you have a problem specifically?10:37
flaccideagles05: yeah thats qt4 purely i think even though it will probably run under qt3/kde3 etc. not sure. the #amarok guys are pretty good at advising10:38
eagles05ill go ahead and dl qt4 i got nothing to lose this is a dev/testing machine anywho10:38

ubottuThere are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications11:25
DekansK > System > VMware server11:25
ubuntu_uhh, hi... just upgraded to hardy heron, and accidently didn't let grub update my menu.lst file11:27
=== ubuntu_ is now known as darksideII
darksideIIthere we go...11:28
flaccidubuntu_: did you submit a bug yet11:28
darksideIIits not a bug... its just i pressed the wrong button on install :P11:28
darksideIIjust wondering if its possible to edit the menu.lst file manually11:28
flaccidah ok11:28
darksideIInow, i've mounted the partition, all good there11:28
flacciddarksideII: sorry. kdeusdo /boot/grub/menu.list11:29
darksideIIyeah i got that part fine11:29
darksideIIim just not sure what to add to it11:29
darksideIIi see all this UUID crap, and im not sure what to do about it11:29
flaccidyou would need to know the partition the bootable fs is on11:29
Dekansupdate-grub ?11:29
flaccidgood point Dekans11:29
darksideIIuhh11:29
darksideIIyo uhave to have it mounted to /boot to get that working11:29
* flaccid feels like an old manual guy11:30
darksideIIno wait11:30
darksideIIi'm chrooted in anyway11:30
darksideIIhehe11:30
flacciddarksideII: you need to be booted into the operating system in question not a livecd or otherwise11:30
flaccidok good luck11:30
darksideIIor you chroot into the os :)11:30
darksideIIlike i just did11:30
flaccidyeah11:30
Dekansyou can do it with a desktop CD too11:30
darksideIIoh wtf, it didn't change a damn thing11:31
darksideIIugh11:31
darksideIIweeeeeeeeeeeel, what would i add to menu.lst11:32
darksideIIkernel          /vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=74971c0f-17c4-4056-90de-d389700b9d2d ro quiet splash11:32
darksideIInow, i' can copy those lines, etc11:32
darksideIIbut i dont know what to do with the uuid part11:33
flaccidjust fyi you dn't need to use UUID11:33
darksideIIoh nice :)11:33
flaccidmyself, i skip it when going manual here11:33
darksideIIso... what would i add11:33
flaccidso /dev/sda1 or whateve will do11:33
flaccidthe linux logical device name11:33
darksideIIvmlinuz-2.6.24-16-generic11:33
flaccidas per fdisk and grub11:33
darksideIIi have that11:33
darksideIIuh11:33
flaccidthats the kernel etc.11:33
darksideIIohhhhh ok11:34
darksideIIi get it11:34
darksideIIso the root= part is the partition11:34
flaccidyep11:35
darksideIIwell... since i've only upgraded, not reinstalled, and its on the same partition anyway11:35
darksideIIcouldn't i just modify the lines?11:35
darksideIIand use the same UUID's ?11:35
darksideIIkernel          /vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-generic root=UUID=74971c0f-17c4-4056-90de-d389700b9d2d ro quiet splash11:36
darksideIIlike, do that?11:36
flaccidah uuid is made from the part/fs uniquely so any change will be a dif uuid so a direct linux logical dev name is fine11:36
flaccid!uuid11:36
ubottuTo see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)11:36
flaccidif that sthe right uuid then yes looks ok i think11:36
flaccidyou could have for eg. /vmlinuz...... root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet11:37
darksideIIheh11:37
darksideIIwell, the uuid's seem fine11:37
flaccidcool11:37

ActionParsni1something smart should turn up and you can configure it12:20
chloenothign12:21
Odd-rationalechloe: then: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager12:21

ActionParsni1DarksideII, id recommend a clean install each time, have /home on a seperate partition and its simple12:25
DarksideII...12:25
DarksideIIthats not the problem12:25
DarksideIIthe problem is to do with acpi i think12:25
DarksideIIit worked in gutsy, and doesn't work in hardy12:25
DarksideIIi mean, everything else seems fine... its just my system hangs after about a minute...12:26
DarksideIIand i think i had this problem with gutsy at first, but i fixed it somehow12:27
DarksideIIi just can't remember how12:27
ActionParsni1ive just seen a LOT of people have issues after an upgrade so I just dont do it12:27

ubottuYou can identify automatically by using your NickServ password as the server password in your IRC client. When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, or a typo may give away your password. If that happened, type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible.13:47

mistiipunext?14:58
eagles0513875and r u using a router to connect these machines14:58
mistiipuno. direct nic to nic14:58
BluesKajnot a vista clue , eagles0513875 unless you partitioned and added a Linux app to the drive then I'd check out Easy BCD14:58
eagles0513875then make sure subnet and and default gateway r the same on both machines14:58

eagles0513875and use those for the other nic and machine15:01
mistiipumy dsl gateway you mean?15:01
mistiipuimy dsl router ip is 192.168.1.115:01
eagles0513875yes15:01
eagles0513875mistiipu: u sure ur router isnt trying to give out a dhcp address and its conflicting with ur static ip15:02
mistiipui should put dns as 192.168.1.1 on the clients?15:02

Skriblewait.. i'll doublechek15:06
Skribleit worked earlier, it just stopped working today.15:06
eagles0513875mistiipu: make sure the subnet mask is something like 255.255.255.0 on all machines for subnet15:06
eagles0513875Skrible: in the fstab where its says ntfs did u add -3g15:07
mistiipupreviously for static ips . i put my server as 192.168.0.1 for eth1 and 192.168.11.1 for eth215:07
BluesKajSkrible, you've checked system menu/storage media ?15:07
eagles0513875mistiipu: then ur subnet should be 255.255.0.25515:08
mistiipuyes.15:08
eagles0513875for all even on ur 2nd machine that ur trying to get on the net as well15:08
Skribleeagles0513875: oh.. where do i have to add that?15:08
mistiipuand 255.255.11.255 for eth215:08
SkribleBluesKaj: nope. How do i do that?15:08
eagles0513875mistiipu: that wont work for a subnet mask15:09
eagles0513875mistiipu: it has to be what i told u 255.255.0.25515:09
mistiipueagles0513875 ok. i give up... its very time consuming. how do i revert back?15:09

BluesKajSkrible, theres' a computer Icon in the panel , click on it choose storage media , see if the windows/ntfs drive is listed15:10
eagles0513875the subnet mask for all machines should be what i mentioned that means that the 3rd batch numbers in the ip is what changes and nothing else when u have a 015:10
SkribleBluesKaj: I've cheked my partitions with fdisk if you mean that15:10
mistiipui should set 255.255.0.255 as netmask on serveR?15:10
eagles0513875yes as well as ur 2nd machine and eth215:10
Skribleyep it is listed15:11

mistiipueagles0513875 i must repeat. i have 2 diff nics on those 2 eths15:11
mistiipueagles0513875 what setting should be on the client side?15:11
eagles0513875subnet should be the same as the server15:12
eagles0513875255.255.0.255 adn ip should be something like 192.168.12.115:12

Terminatorwhere exactly do I add for example the auto auth command (/msg Q@CServe.quakenet.org auth) for quakenet in Konversation??15:59
jabba_life's a bummer!16:00
Terminatorthanks! :P16:01
jabba_Terminator: hey, sorry, i forgot this is #help-terminator. what can I do for you?16:06
TerminatorI was wondering were to enter that auto auth command16:07
TerminatorThere is this "Commands" thing in server edit16:08
=== ubuntu__ is now known as [Relic]
Terminatorbut when I enter "/msg Q@CServe.quakenet.org auth" there it doesnt auth me16:08
jabba_have you considered, you know, asking the people on quakenet?16:08
[Relic]Anything on the live cd that would allow me to access and determine if the MBR is good or bad?16:09
jdaviesTerminator: best ask on #quakenet on quakenet16:09
jabba_[Relic]: grub can tell you that16:09
jabba_[Relic]: and you can re-frob the mbr from the live cd as well16:09
Terminator??16:10
TerminatorI just need info about Konversation16:10
Terminatorin Xchat I can add this to the "perform" list16:10
[Relic]I've tried grub, that give "GRUB read error" and nothing else, and I have tried lilo and that doesn't load either, thinking it is the poor controller since this HD was working till I put it on this MB16:11
TerminatorI know how to auth16:11
Terminatorjust not how to auto-auth in Konversation16:11
jabba_[Relic]: what's the error number?16:11
Terminatorhave been using Ubuntu last few days16:11
Skribleyeah doesnt work :/16:11
Skriblef**k!16:11
[Relic]jabba_: there is no error number16:12
[Relic]jabba_: "GRUB read error" is all it says16:13
jabba_[Relic]: are you sure you're pointing to the right partition?16:15
marco__hi all16:15
dwidmannTerminator: have you looked at the auto-identify in your user profile in konversation? Maybe it can handle it16:15
jabba_when you boot, can you use 'e' and edit the boot line and try other partitions?16:15
BluesKajSkrible, look in the kmenu for the ntfs-config app , then run it .There will be some options.16:15
marco__my kdesudo does not work anymore16:15
dwidmannTerminator: certainly works wonders with nickserv anyhow16:15
marco__i cannot run any sudo dependant program like adept_manager16:15
dwidmannmarco__: what does it say when you try?16:16
marco__nothing16:16
marco__really nothing16:16
BluesKaj!aptfix | marco__16:16
ubottumarco__: If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »16:16
dwidmannmarco__: even when you run it in konsole?16:16
[Relic]jabba_: no clue, it appears so, since device.map says  (hd0) /dev/sda  and  root is (hd0,1) since the swap is the first section of the disk16:16
marco__dwidmann: yes16:16
dwidmannmarco__: whoa ... that's weird16:17
marco__ubottu: i think it's not locked because i can run apt-get as root from a terminal16:17
jabba_[Relic]: when i have grub issues, i generally work with it interactive16:17
BluesKajmarco__, is adept taking your pw ok ?16:18
jabba_but yeah, using the live cd is probably the best way to get out of it16:18
[Relic]jabba_: I can't get to GRUB so I wouldn't be able too16:18
SkribleBluesKaj: well.. i have tried that thousands of times16:18
Skribledoesnt work. :(16:18
Skribleplus it wont detect my partition16:19
marco__BluesKaj: yes, i also did a kdesu -s which unset the password16:19
jabba_[Relic]: of course you can get to grub16:19
dwidmannmarco__: can you use regular sudo, ie:, sudo echo "blah" would echo blah? or is that malfunctioning also?16:19
jabba_[Relic]: if you can get to the "grub read error", you can work with it interactively.16:19
Skriblewtf, BluesKaj quess what16:20
Skribleits working16:20
marco__dwidmann: it echo nothing16:20
Skriblei took ntfs-3g of, and put the folowing to my fstab /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs-sys ntfs ro,dmask=0222,fmask=0333 0 016:21
dwidmannmarco__: is your user a member of the "admin" group?16:21
[Relic]jabba_: how do you access it once it is there, since that is the only line that shows up16:21

JoshOvki!root | ct52916:47
ubottuct529: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo16:47

tuanphammy virtual box can't rung :(17:28
dwidmanntuanpham: you probably need to use norton to restore that image though ... but in the future you could use something like partimage in place of norton ghost17:28
athlon1You can restore it with VMWare. Norton Ghost (i've tested with ghosh 12) can convert it to VMWAre machine.17:29
athlon1VMWare server if free.17:29
mefisto__tuanpham: http://dailycupoftech.com/2008/05/06/free-or-open-source-imaging-solutions/ is a list of disk cloning software, partimage and others17:29

tuanphamathlon1: what do you mean ?17:32
athlon1That it's possible to run one machine inside another (virtualization). i'm running some windows machine inside my Kubuntu. I made an image with ghost9 and restored them with ghost 12.17:33
tuanphami know the virtualization17:34
tuanphambut mean free with vmware17:34
tuanphamcan we setup vmware wrokstation on kubuntu ?17:34

dwidmanntuanpham: vmware-server is fre, though.17:35

ekMaybe a fresh install would fix it. *shrugs*19:05

ekunholyskorn: But, more than anything, I would say this is a bug in KDE and not (K)Ubuntu itself.19:06
ekIt doesn't really bother me all that much. It's just strange.19:06

crash__Im gonna have to shelve this project until I can a) figure out how to get the new kernel, or b) find some other sucker to deal with it. Thanks for the help guys.22:46
JoeBlackenstdin, I installed the ia32* but I don't want to install the 32 bit version, flash is already working ok on the 64 bit version of firefox. Is there another way?22:46
stdinJoeBlacken: I don't know, I run 32bit22:47
marcreicheltdoes anybody know where I can "order" a big amount of CDs (e.g. 100) to give them away for free?22:47
stdinmarcreichelt: you can send a request to shipit, there's a contact link on the site22:48
jonathan__both are folders22:48
marcreicheltthanks stdin22:48
jonathan__i want to copy the content of the specified folders22:48
JoshOvkijonathan__ then its    cp -R /home/jonathan/.purple/logs/icq /media/TrekStore/Logs/ICQ22:48
JoeBlackenstdin, thanks22:49
JoshOvkijonathan__:  -R means recursive (i think) so it will move everything inside to, without the -R its for moving files22:49
jonathan__hm now the source-folder is handled as a file22:49
JoshOvkijonathan__: delete the folder ICQ and recreate it22:50
jonathan__no i was wrong22:51
jonathan__because i kopied as root the permissions were set to the wrong level22:51
jonathan__how can i set all permission for root, users and group to read and write for the folder?22:51
JoshOvkijonathan__:  chmod 777 foldername22:53
JoshOvkisorry,   sudo chmod 777 foldername22:53
mefisto__jonathan__: cp -p  preserves permissions, ownership, etc. Is that what you are trying to do?22:53
jonathan__hm no22:53
jonathan__yes22:54
jonathan__my external drive is owned by root, but all permissions are set to, i think, 777.22:54
jonathan__the chat-history was created by me (Jonathan), so i think if i would preserve the permissions it would work, but the folder would be owned by the wrong person...22:55
jonathan__another question22:55
jonathan__how can i apply the chmod not just for one folder but for this and all the folders it's containing?22:56
JoshOvkichmod -R22:56
JoshOvki(eg  chmod -R 777 /home/josh/folder)22:56
JoshOvkiwould do read write excecute for everyone on /home/josh/folder   and everything inside that folder and inside them folders inside of that folder22:57
jonathan__thank you, everything worked all right! :)22:58
_ZeuZ_Is there any guide on how to append kde4 to my running system with kde3.5.9 keeping both? Installing base packages without a tutorial to back me up its not kinda my idea of doing things xD23:00
Daisuke_Laptopyou just...  install it23:01
jimmy51athomei'm pretty sure if you install KDE4, KDE3 will stick around, and you choose your session type at the login prompt23:01
Daisuke_Laptopexactly.23:02
tp__is there a way to checksum recursively a directory structure?23:02
_ZeuZ_Problem is kdm themes and kdm manager is broken with hardy and some hardware, checked it in the website of the project and do not wish to compile the non-ubuntu package... that's the tick, I cant choose23:03

hiIs there a non-compressed kubuntu repo that I can rsync to for an incremental download?23:32
DexterFis there "reportbug" in kubuntu?23:33
hithe compressed ones, ironically, mean I'm using 60mb for a 100mb download, vs an incremental one where there might only be 3mb of changes to download23:33
v6lurDexterF, apport maybe?23:35

Itakuis there a program that can play music and what i say through a microphone?23:36
_ZeuZ_Itaku: Amarok, Audacious, you just have to configure it23:37
higgeorgak, i just guessed #pic and there's a total of one other person (aside from me) on it.23:38
Itaku_ZeuZ_: how do i configure Amarok to?23:38
_ZeuZ_you just configure kmix and link the input line to the output one (so that input sound would go to the output device)23:39
hi_ZeuZ_: have you done this before?23:39
Itakuwheres kmix?23:39
hiI couldn't get it to work when i tried23:39

Itakuwheres the kmenu?????????23:40
Itakulol23:40
LetsGo67Anyone knows how to do mashup music?23:42
jhutchins_wkThere are conditions where kmix, and for that matter kmenu, do not appear or are not available.23:42
jhutchins_wkLetsGo67: Not really a kubuntu topic.23:42
hiletsgo67: ehm, in a kubuntu channel?23:43
jhutchins_wkLetsGo67: Look for Linux Audio Mixing23:43

LetsGo67Can you remove music instruments with Audacity?23:44
Itaku_ZeuZ_ ive tried everything23:44
Itakuit doesnt work23:44
v6lurItaku: on my sound card (intel hda), i need to max out "front mic" for that purpose23:44
ItakuOh holy hell i didnt have the green light on23:45
hiitaku: just to be sure, were you talking about speech recognition for say, amarok ala wmp or itunes? or just hearing yourself create feedback by listening to yourself on the mic?23:45
crash__ok. I give up. Who do I have to pay, and how much will it cost, for someone to just MAKE IT FRAPPING WORK!?!?!?23:46
hibecause the latter is easy, the former has been a huge pain for me (speech recognition and even TTS are not really considered priorities for kde, gnome etc...)23:46
hicrash__: make what work?23:47
crash__hi: I dont think I actually even know anymore.23:47
_ZeuZ_Itaku: no you didnt then :D23:47
Itakucool23:47
Itakunow to get a working microphone...23:48
_ZeuZ_crash__ what do you need to make work what?23:48
_ZeuZ_x'D23:48
crash__I just need this bcm4318 to do packet injection, so I can break the WEP,  so I can convince the boss to let me implement some real wireless security.23:48
crash__But Im sitting here having to read docs in order to understand a doc that was referenced in another doc.23:49
_ZeuZ_you have to rebuild the module, and patch it, for what you need kernel headers then install that module alone, and then it's done23:49
_ZeuZ_actually, first patch it, then recompile it and make module install23:50
_ZeuZ_I have a tutorial step by step, but it's in spanish23:50
crash__None of it makes a damn bit of sense, there doesnt seem to be any kind of actual content control for documentation, and %90 of them all seem to think that I have 10 years expierence and should know exactly what they mean by "flarp the red boonix to the kernel nugget."23:50
crash__Im actually ready to just chuck the entire frapping machine out the window23:51

_ZeuZ_And also, security is a matter of technical knowledge, just get wifislax or audiator, and have it all done by default... or just download the live cd, do it, and then just keep the cd for later on ussages23:52
hizeuz, is that at pirator?23:52

fitoriahi23:55
fitoriawhere can i get qtmake?23:55
_ZeuZ_just a little pirating chat xD... but if we go to that, the guy asking for package injection to break a wep key, should go to a #hacking channel instead of here...23:55
_ZeuZ_fitoria: apt-get install qtmake23:55
fitoria_ZeuZ_: I allready tried that23:56
_ZeuZ_hmm... now I remember I;m on a ubuntu channel, use sudo in front of that... or do sudo -s and assign root apassword to work as debian...23:56
_ZeuZ_fitoria: you did not find the package? Let me check23:56
bdizzleout of curiosity, does anyone know what new or updated features to expect in Ibex?23:57
_ZeuZ_bdizzle, no idea... will read the changelog in a while23:57
_ZeuZ_fitoria, install qtmake-kde4 or qtmake-kde323:57
fitoriaok23:57
_ZeuZ_I mean23:57
hibdizzle: you asked yesterday this same q i think.. wtf is ibex!? lol i'm curious now23:57

fitoria_ZeuZ_: the package doesnt exist23:58
hibecause it's also a mountain goat so i was confused23:58
_ZeuZ_fitoria, I corrected the package name,it's called qtmake-qt423:58
alex_italiano?23:59
fitoriai tried that23:59
fitoriaE: No se pudo encontrar el paquete qtmake-qt423:59
_ZeuZ_jeje si hablas espa;ol entonces vamos a kubuntu-es23:59
