| hawkeyex | how do I change GDM to KDM? | 00:03 |
| _CrashMaster_ | !purekde | 00:03 |
| ubottu | purekde is If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 00:03 |
| DaSkreech | _CrashMaster_: that's not what was asked | 00:04 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 00:04 |
| gwp | does kubuntu support SLI? I am not sure how to tell if my cards are configures properly | 00:04 |
| _CrashMaster_ | DaSkreech: He didnt want to change from gnome to kde? | 00:04 |
| gwp | configured | 00:04 |
| DaSkreech | no | 00:04 |
| DaSkreech | he wanted a different display manager | 00:04 |
| Daisuke_Ido | hawkeyex: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 00:05 |
| Daisuke_Ido | and i should really read :D | 00:05 |
| _CrashMaster_ | DaSkreech: Then its back to the docs for me. I though G/KDM *was* the display manager | 00:05 |
| Daisuke_Ido | _CrashMaster_: gdm and kdm != gnoe and kde | 00:06 |
| hawkeyex | then what do I need to do? | 00:08 |
| === hawkeyex is now known as Hawkeye-X | ||
| Hawkeye-X | ok i ran dpkg reconfigure kde | 00:08 |
| Hawkeye-X | kdm | 00:08 |
| Hawkeye-X | but it still stays as gdm | 00:08 |
| Hawkeye-X | do I need to reboot? | 00:08 |
| gnomefreak | Hawkeye-X: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 00:09 |
| gnomefreak | no space | 00:09 |
| cnstarz | how do i change the font size within adept? | 00:09 |
| gnomefreak | it should bring up the dialog to choose it might choose it on its own in hardy i dont remember | 00:09 |
| Hawkeye-X | I did that | 00:09 |
| Hawkeye-X | then pops up with a screen giving me a choice - and I selected kdm | 00:10 |
| gnomefreak | Hawkeye-X: did it bring up the dialog? | 00:10 |
| Hawkeye-X | yes | 00:10 |
| gnomefreak | Hawkeye-X: ok give me a sec | 00:10 |
| Hawkeye-X | brb | 00:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Hawkeye-X: did you restart x? you know that gdm and kdm are only x display managers that launch your desktop environment | 00:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | just trying to cover all the bases | 00:11 |
| cnstarz | whenever i go into administrator mode, the font size for everything changes to 9...how do i change them to 4? | 00:11 |
| _x-X-x_ | anyone know of anyway i can mount .bwi .bws .bwt files ? | 00:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | blindwrite images? no. | 00:12 |
| Hawkeye-X | yes. I restarted X (alt-control-backspace) right? | 00:12 |
| Daisuke_Ido | x-X-x: you might want to check out a program called acetoneiso | 00:12 |
| _x-X-x_ | Daisuke_Ido is there a demonoid for ubuntu ? | 00:12 |
| _x-X-x_ | i did | 00:12 |
| _x-X-x_ | acetone didnt recognise it | 00:12 |
| Daisuke_Ido | _x-X-x_: then you're probably outta luck | 00:12 |
| gnomefreak | Hawkeye-X: try sudo update-alternatives --config kdm-config-derivative let me know if it lets you | 00:14 |
| Hawkeye-X | it says no alternatives | 00:14 |
| gnomefreak | Hawkeye-X: try with gdm instead of kdm let me know if it has kdm in the selections | 00:15 |
| * gnomefreak wonders why dpkg didnt change it | 00:15 | |
| Hawkeye-X | ok | 00:15 |
| gnomefreak | Hawkeye-X: if that shows nothing please reboot the system not just X | 00:15 |
| francesco_ | !it | 00:17 |
| ubottu | Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! | 00:17 |
| hawkeyex | gnomefreak: still gdm | 00:18 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: i would file a bug than dpkg-reconfigure should have done the trick | 00:19 |
| gnomefreak | thats why its there | 00:19 |
| hawkeyex | should I reinstall from scratch? | 00:19 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: i dont remember the login screen config file but changing it there is another option | 00:19 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: no | 00:19 |
| hawkeyex | ok | 00:19 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: remove kde and reinstall it :) | 00:19 |
| gnomefreak | kdm not kde | 00:19 |
| gnomefreak | sorry | 00:19 |
| twinkie_addict | i tryed sudo adduser and it sead only one or names aloud | 00:21 |
| gnomefreak | cd /etc/gdm/ | 00:21 |
| gnomefreak | oops | 00:21 |
| twinkie_addict | one or two names aloud sorry | 00:21 |
| twinkie_addict | for some reason adding user in kbuntu remix seems to be not working | 00:22 |
| azzco | Anyone else having problems connecting to msn? | 00:24 |
| Devourer | Why does it say "Manual page make(1) line 112/162 (END)" is the end when it is only at page 112 out of 162 in man pages? | 00:24 |
| gnomefreak | maybe a man(2) | 00:24 |
| cnstarz | kubuntu doesn't come with firefox? | 00:25 |
| gnomefreak | sorry man make2 or (2) i cant rmeember the context but you can get into the rest | 00:25 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: no | 00:25 |
| cnstarz | blehh | 00:25 |
| gnomefreak | cmkubuntu uses qt not gtk | 00:25 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: install it | 00:25 |
| gnomefreak | sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0 | 00:26 |
| gnomefreak | or -2 or nothing | 00:26 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: i found the file | 00:26 |
| hawkeyex | gnomefreak: what is it? | 00:26 |
| cnstarz | wow this font size is so gay | 00:26 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: see if you have a /etc/kdm/kdm.conf | 00:26 |
| toens | when i'm in 'system settings', why are words cut off? it looks ugly | 00:26 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: kde sometimes keeps their conf files in ~/.kde or something of the sort | 00:27 |
| toens | for example "Notificatio" next line "ns" | 00:27 |
| gnomefreak | toens: its wrapper | 00:27 |
| hawkeyex | I don't have kdm.conf | 00:27 |
| gnomefreak | Itaku: there used to be a way to turn wrappers off but never easy for gui | 00:27 |
| hawkeyex | and I'm in /etc/kde/kdm/ | 00:27 |
| toens | yes, word wrap | 00:27 |
| hawkeyex | and there is kdm.options | 00:27 |
| hawkeyex | kde4 rather | 00:28 |
| aaroncampbell | On to my pressing problem: Kubuntu 8.04 doesn't seem to be launching the box to choose an action for my camera when it's plugged in by USB (like the option to transfer the pictures using digiKam). Here are the System Log Lines: http://paste2.org/p/28662 | 00:28 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: you just want login to change right? | 00:28 |
| hawkeyex | no. i want the desktop back to kde | 00:28 |
| * gnomefreak so damn stupid tonight its friday im allowed :) | 00:28 | |
| hawkeyex | login is kde style | 00:28 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: you can choose that in login | 00:28 |
| hawkeyex | hm. let me try again | 00:29 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: go to sessions | 00:29 |
| gnomefreak | and choose kde4 and make it default | 00:29 |
| toens | gnomefreak, so how would i toggle word wrap on/off? | 00:29 |
| gnomefreak | toens: in GUI i dont know for sure | 00:29 |
| Hammer89 | I need to export the display from one Ubuntu system to another... I tried issuing the "export DISPLAY=<ip address>:1.0" command in terminal... but it's not working... what am I doing wrong? | 00:29 |
| hawkeyex | there we go | 00:29 |
| hawkeyex | back to kde | 00:29 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: if you go into sessions or options than sessions | 00:29 |
| gnomefreak | you can choose kde4 than make default | 00:29 |
| cnstarz | how do i install nvidia drivers? | 00:30 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: what card? | 00:30 |

| gnomefreak | cnstarz: if its hardy dont install them | 00:30 |
| cnstarz | :o | 00:30 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: still giving you an issue? | 00:30 |
| cnstarz | why not? | 00:31 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: remove it | 00:31 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: its causing crashes in hardy but being worked on | 00:31 |
| cnstarz | oh ok | 00:31 |
| hawkeyex | ok. i'm going to reinstall totem again | 00:31 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: bug 212648 | 00:31 |

| cnstarz | thanks | 00:31 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: that is the bug report and yes i have it in my head all the time :( | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | would you happen to know how to fix the font size on some of my apps? | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | for instance.... | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | when i open adept | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | the font is HUGE | 00:32 |
| hawkeyex | grrr | 00:32 |
| hawkeyex | can't install totem | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | but everything else is fine | 00:32 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: that will change with the drivers but you may see X crashes | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | and firefox has huge fonts too | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | oh | 00:32 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: remove the package | 00:32 |
| cnstarz | how long have they been working on the drivers? | 00:33 |
| gnomefreak | hawkeyex: and if you want gnome to go remove libgtk.... | 00:33 |
| hawkeyex | I did. | 00:33 |
| hawkeyex | I don't want gnome | 00:33 |
| hawkeyex | http://www.pastebin.org/36473 | 00:33 |
| gnomefreak | cnstarz: a while timo is working on them if you look at the bug at top you will see date it was filed and i gave it to timo :) | 00:34 |
| gwp | cross your fingers all im using wine to download and install world of warcraft | 00:34 |

| lintaba | hy | 01:01 |
| lintaba | is here anybody? | 01:01 |
| word | aaroncampbell: sounds like it's not getting good drivers for it, so it doesn't know it can use it, so it doesn't give you an option to open it with anything...or can you open it manually? | 01:01 |
| aaroncampbell | word: I can open digicam, and transfer pictured from it | 01:02 |
| lintaba | i am a beginer in the linux, and i want to use my webcamera, can anybody help me? | 01:02 |
| word | lintaba: first make sure your webcam is compatible with linux, search around on google | 01:02 |
| lintaba | i found few thinks, example a sourceforge driver, but i cant download it:D | 01:03 |
| word | aaroncampbell: does it alert you when you put in other things? that little bit mighta just bugged out | 01:03 |
| lintaba | 0402:5602 ALi Corp https://sourceforge.net/projects/m560x-driver/ | 01:03 |
| aaroncampbell | word: I went to camera->Add Camera, had it auto detect, it found the camera (Canon EOS 400D, the "Rebel XTi"). Now I just go to camera, choose that one, and if it's plugged in it works | 01:03 |
| word | but it doesn't notice when you plug it in and unplug it? | 01:04 |
| word | and did it ever? | 01:04 |
| aaroncampbell | word: not since the fresh install of Hardy | 01:05 |
| gwp | i downloaded a theme that usses KDFX I then downloaded KDFX and cant figure out what to do next. ANyone familiar with the application? | 01:06 |
| word | did it work in kde4? | 01:06 |
| BluesKaj | if you plugin USB connectors , the devices show up in the System menu/Storage Media | 01:06 |
| gwp | KBFX even | 01:06 |
| aaroncampbell | word: it doesn't offer the box for CD's or Memory Cards either ...I don't have a thumb drive here | 01:06 |
| word | aaroncampbell: did you try turning on the new device notifier plasmoid? | 01:07 |
| aaroncampbell | word: well, it must "notice" because the KSystemLog shows those lines I pasted | 01:07 |
| aaroncampbell | word: not sure what that is, so probably not ;) | 01:07 |
| word | aaroncampbell: yah but the bit that does the notifying might not be working correctly | 01:08 |
| aaroncampbell | word: what do I need to do? | 01:08 |
| word | go to the top right corner of your screen and turn on the recently plugged devices, not sure what it does i'm pretty new to kde4, but it might duplicate what you want it to do until they fix it | 01:08 |
| lintaba | word: my computer look the camera in the lsusb, but i cant found camera* in any directory | 01:08 |
| word | i dont think it treats it as a camera..more like a video input..pretty much the exact same as a tv tuner card..which sadly is easier to set up than a webcam :P | 01:09 |
| aaroncampbell | word: I'm not in KDE 4, and there is nothing in the top right of my screen | 01:09 |
| word | wow..i thought you said you werre.. | 01:10 |
| word | lol :P | 01:10 |
| word | i have one contact in and one out, so my vision's kinda quirky ;p | 01:11 |
| lintaba | word sorry, i'm verry new in the world of linux, and i just learning the english... Have you any idea what can i do with my camera? | 01:11 |
| word | but um, if you're using kde3 it should be relatively stable as far as that function goes..it might just be the way the camera system is set up...you might be able to configure digikam to autolaunch when you plug in the device | 01:11 |
| aaroncampbell | Kubuntu 8.04, but not KDE 4. Anyway, I have to run, so I guess I'll ask again later tonight. If you know the solution, just PM it to me. Thanks for your time | 01:11 |
| word | lintaba: what's your native language? there are seperate channels for differently languages if that'd be easier for you | 01:12 |
| aaroncampbell | word: again, NOTHING autolaunches when ANYTHING is inserted (CDs, usb, etc) | 01:12 |
| word | oh o.O | 01:12 |

| Dr_willis | for all my video needs. | 02:24 |
| dbglt | is dragonplayer the only kde4 client? | 02:25 |
| daskreech | for now | 02:27 |
| robocop | #compiz....say the stuff on the site is wrong or outa date :( | 02:27 |
| daskreech | most likely | 02:28 |
| daskreech | and it is #compiz-fusion | 02:28 |
| robocop | daskreech, ....thats where Ive just been to.....theres something wrong with an update mirror | 02:29 |
| NickPresta | robocop, that sometimes happens (an update is broken). I would wait a couple of days and a new update should be available | 02:30 |
| robocop | NickPresta, hhmm.....ok....not good though is it....almost get the required updates and then it stalls because of a server being down....oh and the kubuntu instructions point to feisty and not heron!¬ | 02:33 |
| kevman | I'm having an issue here. | 02:37 |
| kevman | Konqueror refuses to go to any websites. It says "could not connect to host." | 02:37 |
| kevman | But I can ping out and use apt. Its connected to the Internet. | 02:37 |
| daskreech | which websites ? | 02:39 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman did you try changing web browser id ? | 02:39 |
| robocop | If someone can please point me to a working site with instructions to install compiz-fusdsion of kubuntu 8.04 would be great....thanks :) | 02:41 |
| kevman | daskreech, all of them. | 02:41 |
| kevman | wirechief_intel, for google? | 02:41 |
| wirechief_intel | well, i know that konquer doesnt work google docs, and is not friendly to google | 02:42 |
| robocop | kevman.......just wondering...are you using a firewall at all? | 02:42 |
| kevman | Just an everyday router. | 02:42 |
| kevman | Its for all websites. All of them. Konqueror is not connected to the INternet, but everything else is. | 02:42 |
| daskreech | kevman: can you check if it has a proxy defined | 02:43 |
| robocop | kevman, i know whats wrong.....or i think i do.....its the settings from getting from the router to your isp thats the problem | 02:43 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman even here :http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#privmsg ? | 02:44 |
| Jucato | robocop: shouldn't there be a Desktop Effects in K Menu -> System? | 02:44 |
| kevman | Everywhwere. | 02:44 |
| kevman | robocop, why would that only affect konqueror on one machine? | 02:44 |
| robocop | jucato....yse should be....its there....but i want new compiz-fusion to work | 02:44 |
| Jucato | wirechief_intel: other way around. Google refuses to do anything to make their stuff work for Konqueror/KHTML | 02:44 |
| Jucato | robocop: and what do you mean by "new" compiz-fusion? | 02:45 |
| wirechief_intel | Jucato agrees | 02:45 |
| robocop | kevman.....its the router not allowing connections from it....from that machine | 02:45 |
| kevman | Then why would ping, Firefox, and adept work? | 02:45 |
| robocop | Jucato, 0.7.4/5 | 02:45 |
| robocop | kevman...its saying you have a ping an internet connection......but like doesnt know what to do with it properly | 02:46 |
| Jucato | !info compiz | 02:46 |
| ubottu | compiz (source: compiz): OpenGL window and compositing manager. In component main, is optional. Version 1:0.7.4-0ubuntu6 (hardy), package size 33 kB, installed size 68 kB | 02:46 |
| Jucato | robocop: it's already at 0.7.4 | 02:46 |
| Jucato | if you want a newer version, you'll have to ask in #compiz-fusion because Ubuntu doesn't have updates yet | 02:46 |
| Jucato | you'll have to use their repositories | 02:47 |
| robocop | Jucato, .....but it doesnt work....ive folowed the instaructions at he site and its down...so the updates needed dont work | 02:47 |
| Jucato | how doesn't it work? | 02:47 |
| robocop | kevman....do you know how to log onto the router? | 02:47 |
| kevman | Yes | 02:48 |
| Jucato | (although you might get better help in #compiz-fusion) | 02:48 |
| console_jockey | I'm running kubuntu gutsy and I've have "unmet dependencies" when I running aptitude safe-upgrade. Specifically: openssh-server: Depends: openssh-client (= 1:4.6p1-5ubuntu0.2) but 1:4.6p1-5ubuntu0.3 is installed. How do I correct this issue? | 02:48 |
| kevman | I'm connected wirelessly, if that's any help. | 02:48 |
| console_jockey | s/running/run/ | 02:49 |
| robocop | kevman, ....ok scroll down or even through the settings and you will see sometghing like this renew or get new ip addy.....that should get new ip for that machine and should open the ports for you to get on the net properly | 02:49 |
| robocop | kevman, .....then it could be a por signal to that pc | 02:50 |
| kevman | its not the connection. | 02:50 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman check this out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=502247 | 02:50 |
| daskreech | console_jockey: where did you get that one from? | 02:50 |
| kevman | the connection on the computer works PERFECTLY. Just not in konqueror. | 02:50 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman maybe in terminal sudo konqueror and then try to get to internet | 02:51 |
| kevman | Yeah, I'll try that. | 02:51 |
| Jucato | no no | 02:51 |
| Jucato | do not use "sudo" with a GUI app | 02:51 |
| Jucato | !kdesu | 02:51 |
| ubottu | In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 02:51 |
| robocop | kevman, .........iof you use firefox......do you get to the websites? | 02:51 |
| Jucato | and do not go online as root (with sudo) | 02:51 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: where did I get the error message from? aptitude safe-update following an aptitude upgrade | 02:51 |
| daskreech | kevman: did you check what I asked? | 02:51 |
| kevman | It woeks as root. | 02:52 |
| kevman | daskreech, that was the first thing I tried. | 02:52 |
| daskreech | console_jockey: No where did you get the package from ? | 02:52 |
| daskreech | kevman: then it's your konqueror settings | 02:52 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: ah, one moment. checcking sources.list | 02:52 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman there must be something with konqueror and your permissions but follow that thread i gave | 02:52 |
| daskreech | kevman: Move your konqueror setting dir to a new name | 02:52 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: not sure which repo has openssh but the general form for my sources.list is deb http://ftp.citylink.co.nz/ubuntu/ gutsy | 02:53 |
| kevman | daskreech, its a fresh install. | 02:53 |
| kevman | I installed it, rebooted, open konqueror. And nothing. | 02:53 |
| kevman | wirechief_intel, disabling cache worked. | 02:54 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman ok, i didnt think you had to do anything with your other stuff. | 02:55 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: running software-properties-gtk to find new mirror now. | 02:55 |
| daskreech | console_jockey: woah. where are those coming from? can you pastebin your source.list ? | 02:55 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman thank google ;) | 02:55 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: heh... new zealand would be my guess, and it was the fastest mirror the last time I ran software-properties-gtk. I am running it again and will be sure to choose something a little more mainstream.... heh | 02:56 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman and using gui as root is a very bad idea but you had to see if you were going down the right road. | 02:56 |
| kevman | Yeah, I know. My main computer is actually a gentoo machine. This is for my mom... | 02:58 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman well im glad thats all you needed, i usuaully check for bugs with the symptom and of course google | 02:59 |
| kevman | I didn't really know what to query. | 02:59 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: I've gone ahead and changed the repo source and run aptitude update, but when I run aptitude upgrade I get the same error. You think I should maybe remove openssh-* and reinstall them? | 02:59 |
| Alonea | the text install is only on the alternate disk? | 03:00 |
| daskreech | hi Alonea | 03:00 |
| daskreech | yes | 03:00 |
| daskreech | console_jockey: pastebin yoour sources | 03:01 |
| daskreech | !paste | 03:01 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 03:01 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman i used "konqueror cannot connect to internet" | 03:01 |
| Alonea | daskreech: *curses* I cant get the graphical on e to work on this laptop that I am fixing for a friend. Its old and only has 384mb of ram | 03:01 |

| dbglt | anyone updated to kde 4.0.4 by any chance? | 03:02 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: http://rafb.net/p/GZ7TUF41.html | 03:02 |
| kevman | "graphical on e"? | 03:02 |
| kevman | Text install is also on the dvd | 03:02 |
| daskreech | Alonea: That's what the text one is for | 03:02 |
| kevman | Someone told me the GUI install doesn't work well under 384meg of RAM. Issat true? | 03:02 |
| wirechief_intel | dbglt: yep, it is still experimental. | 03:03 |
| dbglt | wirechief_intel: oh yes, I know. I'm running 4.0.3. For some reason, my system won't update to 4.0.4, even though I have the correct repositories | 03:03 |
| wirechief_intel | kevman probably very close to being right on. | 03:03 |
| kevman | Strange. | 03:04 |
| wirechief_intel | dbglt: hmm well i got it on another machine but to be honest i havent bothered anymore with it. | 03:04 |
| Jucato | dbglt: I was told that there was a bug with that, even if you have 4.0.4 installed it still says 4.0.3 in About KDE | 03:04 |
| Jucato | dbglt: try asking in #kubuntu-kde4 | 03:04 |
| dbglt | Jucato: ah, that could be it. I have, very little luck there | 03:04 |
| wirechief_intel | Jucato i heard the same | 03:04 |
| dbglt | on that note then, are there any repositories for the 4.1 alpha? | 03:05 |
| Alonea | daskreech: I just hate that they are separate. used to them being on same disk. | 03:05 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: any thoughts on my removing/reinstalling? | 03:05 |
| Jucato | dbglt: none yet | 03:05 |
| dbglt | Jucato, wirechief_intel: thanks for clearing that up, was a bit lost! | 03:05 |
| Alonea | daskreech: this will run on it right? (kde3 of course, not 4) | 03:06 |
| * wirechief_intel joins the lost | 03:06 | |
| wirechief_intel | dbglt just try to have fun with 3.5.9 youll have more excitement | 03:07 |
| daskreech | Alonea: yeah | 03:07 |
| daskreech | Jucato: took a peek at the rafb link ? | 03:07 |
| Jucato | no | 03:08 |
| daskreech | please do and tell me what you think | 03:08 |
| Hawkeye-X | could someone take a look at this vlc dev and tell me why my dvd player is not working? | 03:08 |
| Hawkeye-X | http://www.pastebin.org/36493 | 03:08 |
| Alonea | daskreech: ok. good. thing is, he just wants this to browse the internet and maybe type up a couple things. His windows was virus ridden. *shudder* | 03:08 |
| _2 | where does konqueror put "trash" ? i'm having trouble removing what i can't find... | 03:09 |
| Jucato | _2: in the fd.o specified locations: ~/.local/share/Trash | 03:09 |

| wirechief_intel | _2 ? you using Ubuntu then ? with Gnome ? and your on a Kubuntu irc ...hmmm | 03:13 |
| console_jockey | daskreech: I take it you didn't find anything worth commenting on with my sources.list? | 03:13 |
| daskreech | Alonea: Best part? | 03:13 |
| Alonea | daskreech: ^__^. I am just glad he isn't computer illiterate. | 03:13 |
| daskreech | Alonea: two clicks and they can hang out with us! | 03:13 |
| _2 | wirechief_intel no. | 03:14 |
| daskreech | Jucato: Peeked at it? | 03:14 |
| _2 | wirechief_intel no gnome either | 03:14 |
| Jucato | wirechief_intel: you don't know _2 yet :) | 03:14 |
| Alonea | daskreech: ? er. irc or have they added something new? I haven't used kubuntu in a long while. slackware is what I moved to. | 03:14 |
| Jucato | daskreech: yes. what am I supposed to be looking for? | 03:14 |
| Jucato | (is that the sources.list pastebin?) | 03:14 |
| wirechief_intel | Jucato i guess not. ;) | 03:14 |
| Hawkeye-X | http://www.pastebin.org/36493 - could someone take a look and tell me why my dvd player is not working? | 03:15 |
| _2 | who is it "nautilus" that uses ~/.Trash/ ? | 03:15 |
| Jucato | _2: yeah.. though I thought that also "linked" to the fd.o standard place... although I think KDE uses .Trash for removable devices too | 03:15 |
| Jucato | not clear on that one | 03:15 |
| Alonea | daskreech: er, what wifi cards are natively supported? I know the brand is intel. | 03:16 |
| _2 | Jucato umm may have changed from dapper to now ? | 03:16 |
| Jucato | that I don't know... sorry | 03:16 |

| mot_ | i go to kde menu -> run program | 03:17 |
| mot_ | still won't open | 03:17 |
| mot_ | what the hell? | 03:17 |
| daskreech | Jucato: I don't know how they got configured like that. I've never seen a sources.list like that before | 03:18 |

| Pramod | teah | 03:51 |
| Pramod | yeah | 03:51 |
| Pramod | where can i get that? | 03:51 |
| wirechief_intel | google but it might be in repo | 03:51 |
| wirechief_intel | try in a terminal apt-get install aptoncd see what happens. | 03:51 |
| Pramod | ok thank you... :) | 03:52 |
| wirechief_intel | Pramod are you using ubuntu or Kubuntu | 03:52 |
| wirechief_intel | aptoncd is for gnome | 03:52 |
| Pramod | well i am usung kubuntu... but i want to transit to ubuntu... :) | 03:52 |
| wirechief_intel | not sure it will work in kubuntu | 03:53 |
| Pramod | ok | 03:53 |
| Pramod | well got any suggestion for kubuntu? | 03:53 |
| wirechief_intel | pramod but there are web sites for cloning. | 03:53 |
| wirechief_intel | just google it, cloning kubuntu | 03:53 |
| Pramod | ok thanks... | 03:53 |
| Pramod | i try it | 03:54 |
| flaccid | cloning? | 03:54 |
| billyd | What are you trying to clone | 03:54 |
| wirechief_intel | there are programs for that, at least there were under 7.04 | 03:54 |
| Pramod | cloning kubuntu... | 03:54 |
| billyd | Like cloning a HD with kubuntu on it? | 03:55 |
| wirechief_intel | something different than partimage | 03:55 |
| _CrashMaster_ | ubunutu are kubuntu the same thing, with the exception of the desktop manager.... right? | 03:55 |
| wirechief_intel | i used it a couple of times when i had two installs of 7.04 and wanted to keep them in sync | 03:55 |
| === lajos is now known as lajos_ | ||
| === lajos_ is now known as lajos | ||
| flaccid | _CrashMaster_: mainly yes | 03:56 |
| flaccid | what do you mean by cloning? | 03:56 |
| wirechief_intel | CrashMaster well there are lots of gome programs that will muck up a good kde based install. | 03:57 |
| billyd | Pramod - if you are trying to get stuff on a HD to another HD as a clone, regardless of what is onthe disk look at g4u Think website might be www.g4u.com - or google it | 03:57 |
| wirechief_intel | best to stay away from em. | 03:57 |
| flaccid | wirechief_intel: like? | 03:57 |
| flaccid | when you say clone, do you mean disk image? | 03:57 |
| Pramod | well | 03:57 |

| wirechief_intel | flaccid: well fine, live on the edge. thats your fun rights. | 03:58 |
| Pramod | i want to save all the cache in the apt so that when i format my disk i can use them from the cd instead of downloading them... | 03:58 |
| wirechief_intel | with my distro the developer refuses to do anything with gnome, and will never. | 03:59 |
| flaccid | wirechief_intel: ubuntu is designed so things like this are not a problem, if you do run into something that conflicts thats what !bugs are for :) | 03:59 |
| wirechief_intel | flaccid: yep your right i guess thats why so many people are looking for help on #ubuntu channel | 04:00 |
| Nodlew | hey guys.. I just finished an install of kubuntu 8.04, rebooted, and I'm stuck at a grub prompt... I'm lost, can anybody help? | 04:00 |
| Alonea | daskreech: ya know, the install screen is very screwy looking...lots of flickering and black lines | 04:01 |
| flaccid | wirechief_intel: well a lot of us think that kde has a better dependency tree - easier to install/compile etc. i tend to agree | 04:01 |
| flaccid | Nodlew: the actual grub prompt? did it say anything just before that eg. errrs? | 04:01 |
| wirechief_intel | flaccid: i prefer it. but like to test others. | 04:02 |
| Nodlew | flaccid: No erros.. just dropped me at a grub prompt.. same thing after 3 re-installs... fedora 9 installed with no problems | 04:02 |
| Pramod | #ubuntu | 04:02 |
| flaccid | Nodlew: is this the standard desktop cd install? | 04:02 |
| daskreech | Alonea: What video card? | 04:03 |
| Nodlew | flaccid: kubuntu 8.04 dvd | 04:03 |
| wirechief_intel | well time to catch the train see ya. | 04:04 |
| flaccid | Nodlew: not much to go on. i guess you could try the alternate cd but they may have the same result | 04:04 |
| flaccid | ciao | 04:04 |
| Alonea | daskreech: I have no earthly idea. laptop is old. | 04:05 |
| Nodlew | I really don't want to goto another distro... there has to be something I can do.. manually install grub or lilo or something? | 04:05 |
| flaccid | Nodlew: ok try reinstalling grub and if that fails i guess try alternate cd | 04:06 |
| flaccid | !grub | 04:06 |

| daskreech | Alonea: can you see? | 04:07 |
| Nodlew | there is a fasttrack scsi adaptor in the system that I think is somehow confusing things.. but the drive that I'm installing on is on that controller | 04:07 |

| _CrashMaster_ | y | 04:08 |
| Pramod | where should i look? | 04:08 |
| flaccid | !kde4 | Pramod | 04:09 |
| ubottu | Pramod: KDE 4.0.4 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0.3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.4.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 | 04:09 |
| Pramod | thanks flaccid thanks ubottu... :P | 04:10 |
| Alonea | Nodlew: have you tried messing with the boot options? like, taking off the splash option if its on there. I think I remember I had some problems and taking that off helped. | 04:10 |
| Alonea | Nodlew: its been a while since I have used Kubuntu. I moved distros. | 04:10 |
| flaccid | np | 04:10 |
| flaccid | Jucato: hey mate you there | 04:11 |
| Nodlew | Alonea: I'm rebooting from the dvd now to see if I can get back to the filesystem... if I'm just getting the grub prompt.. would it likely be even reading grub.conf... or just getting to the mbr? | 04:11 |
| Jucato | yeah | 04:11 |
| Jucato | flaccid: yeah | 04:11 |
| Alonea | Nodlew: so, to make sure I get you, it loads the grub screen and...stops? doesn't try to load an os? | 04:12 |
| flaccid | Jucato: i think we just need to change the !kde4 factoid to say 4.0.4 in both instances | 04:12 |
| Nodlew | Alonea: Doesn't try to load the OS at all.. just drops at a grub screen.. same prompt you'd get if you ran "grub" from a console on a live system | 04:13 |
| Jucato | flaccid: I just removed the 2nd instance to make updating it easier | 04:13 |

| Alonea | Nodlew: not sure, but sounds like grub isn't configured correctly. Are you just installing linux, or are you dual booting? do you have multiple hdds? | 04:14 |

| daskreech | Latest packages ? | 04:15 |
| Nodlew | Alonea: There are multiple HDD's... not trying to multiboot | 04:15 |
| Alonea | Nodlew: ok. are you installing on first hdd? | 04:15 |
| Nodlew | there is onboard raid controller, but the disk array currently isn't configured, so I'm not sure how it's being detected | 04:16 |
| Nodlew | the drive I installed on is a scsi drive on a separate controller | 04:16 |
| Alonea | Nodlew: have no experience there. I do know that the config is going to look for grub on the first hdd and then look for instructions on where linux is installed, which can be anywhere. | 04:17 |
| Alonea | lemme find some instructions real quick for how to config grub. | 04:17 |
| Nodlew | Alonea: thaks, much appreciated | 04:18 |

| Alonea | Nodlew: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351, try that. | 04:22 |
| Alonea | Nodlew: hopefully that will fix it. | 04:22 |
| Alonea | daskreech: gods this is taking ages to install. | 04:22 |
| Nodlew | Alonea: Thanks.. taking a look now | 04:22 |
| Alonea | Nodlew: there was another page I used to use, but this is the same instructions pretty much | 04:23 |
| daskreech | Alonea: With slow computers I normally pull out the network cable | 04:31 |
| daskreech | otherwise it will try and download all the updates from the net | 04:31 |
| daskreech | I'd ratehr do that once the machine is up and running so I can do other stuff | 04:32 |
| Nodlew | Alonea: So I followed the instructions.. it found the stage1 file, wrote the mbr, but when I rebooted, I still got the grub shell | 04:32 |

| lookin_kubu | I read the rootsudo, and still don't understand how to just login as admin | 06:37 |
| lookin_kubu | so sudo chown bob:bob /home/bob/* , get me admin? | 06:38 |
| Fungyo | lookin_kubu: no... "sudo -s -H" no quotes, will log you in as an admin | 06:40 |
| Fungyo | chown changes ownership of files or directories(folders) | 06:41 |
| Fungyo | your home folder and files "/home/bob" should already be owned by you | 06:42 |

| lookin_kubu | tks | 06:42 |
| lookin_kubu | read the who thing and could'nt find it :) | 06:43 |
| Fungyo | if you do the sudo -s -H be careful not to play around in your home folder as writing or modifying folders/files will then be owned by root and not your normal login account eg. bob | 06:44 |
| coder2 | Hello | 06:44 |

| kavit | hi all, I have a nvidia card and I am using TwinView (Xinerama) to use two monitors. I added a new panel to the second screen. I however found that I couldnt add a system tray to the second panel. Does anyone know if I can have 2 system trays running on the same Xinerama session | 08:04 |
| kavit | ? | 08:04 |
| Agent_bob | kavit i don't think you can, not without some heavy tweekin' | 08:06 |
| kavit | Agent_bob: i thought so | 08:06 |
| holycow | xinerama? | 08:06 |
| holycow | uh | 08:06 |
| holycow | xinerama is different from twinview | 08:06 |
| holycow | either you are using twinview or xinerama | 08:06 |
| holycow | if its twinview its fully ogl capableon all monitors, you can put a panel anywhere | 08:06 |
| holycow | twinview in general unfortunately is a bit lacking tho | 08:07 |
| Blissex | holycow: sort of -- TwinView also provides Xinerama emulation. | 08:07 |
| holycow | okay right | 08:07 |
| kavit | holycow: nvidia-settings says Twinview is enabled, kde desktop pref says Xinerama is on | 08:07 |
| kavit | holycow: i have a second panel... I just want to add a system tray to that second panel | 08:07 |
| holycow | system tray? you can have as many as you want | 08:08 |
| holycow | what error are you getting? | 08:08 |
| Blissex | Xinerama is both an implementations and a protocol. As a protocol it allows application to figure out that what looks like a single screen is divided into ''regions'' which are sub-screens. | 08:08 |
| holycow | it renders on one moni and not the other? | 08:08 |
| Agent_bob | holycow you can have multiple systrays ? | 08:08 |
| kavit | holycow: the applet doesn't show up in the Add Applet menu | 08:08 |
| kavit | holycow: i dont mind going into .kde/ and editing stuff by hand | 08:08 |
| kavit | holycow: i just wanted to know if there was an easier way | 08:09 |
| holycow | oh wait you are using kde | 08:09 |
| kavit | aye... hence kubuntu :P | 08:09 |
| holycow | lol sorry i'm a bit slow today :) | 08:09 |
| holycow | so what you can't add a systray applet? | 08:09 |

| holycow | lol, its not that my mind is on the topic of whether or not th eintel 5100 chipset is supported | 08:10 |
| kavit | holycow: nope | 08:11 |
| kavit | holycow: nope to systray not showing up | 08:11 |
| kavit | holycow: I have no idea about the chipset | 08:11 |
| holycow | does it render on one screen but not other? | 08:11 |
| holycow | does a single systray render? | 08:11 |
| holycow | or you are trying to get multiple ones running? | 08:11 |
| kavit | holycow: trying to get multiple ones running | 08:12 |
| kavit | holycow: compiz and emerald are running nicely | 08:12 |
| kavit | holycow: everything else works but the system tray | 08:12 |
| kavit | holycow: might go gnome... this otherwise small annoyance is a very big deal for me | 08:13 |
| holycow | kavit i'd haveto dig a little bit to find out, but unfortunately i don't have time | 08:13 |
| holycow | i'm sorry | 08:13 |
| holycow | multiple system trays? | 08:13 |
| holycow | personally i find them mostly useless | 08:13 |
| holycow | i think the concept of a system tray needs to be rethought | 08:13 |
| kavit | holycow: it's all good, i can do my own digging, thanks for trying anyway | 08:13 |
| Agent_bob | all i have ever done with a system tray is remove them. | 08:13 |
| holycow | sorry bro :/ | 08:13 |
| holycow | no quick answer | 08:14 |
| kavit | well until something stable comes along to replace the system tray | 08:14 |
| kavit | i guess i will keep using it | 08:14 |
| * Agent_bob doesn't much care for systrays panels or bars | 08:15 | |

| Agent_bob | ^ | 08:19 |
| freakabcd | i have downloaded the kubuntu hardy kde4 remix iso | 08:19 |
| freakabcd | i have loop mounted this on /tmp/koobuntu | 08:19 |
| freakabcd | i added this line to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb file:/tmp/koobuntu/ hardy main restricted | 08:19 |
| freakabcd | then when i do a reload (apt-get update) in synaptic, then click on 'Origin' | 08:20 |
| freakabcd | it doesn't show /tmp/koobuntu as a possible source for packages | 08:20 |
| Agent_bob | ummm isn't it two slashes ? file:// < | 08:20 |
| freakabcd | actually it should be 3 slashes: file:// then the path /tmp/koobuntu | 08:21 |
| === maska is now known as Maska | ||
| freakabcd | i tried all methods, but none of them work | 08:21 |
| Agent_bob | hmm you updated the database ? | 08:21 |
| Agent_bob | apt-get update ? | 08:21 |
| freakabcd | Agent_bob, actually there is an error, i will show you | 08:21 |

| Agent_bob | is the pool dirrectory full of the .deb files you want ? you could copy them to /var/cache/apt/archives/ and install the meta package from there... | 08:29 |
| Agent_bob | not the "*buntu" way though | 08:29 |
| Agent_bob | more the _bob way... | 08:29 |
| Agent_bob | it's 'em bob way again.. | 08:30 |
| Agent_bob | freakabcd ok apt seems to always ignore local lists on update maybe you need to use something like the apt-cdrom tool to add that ? | 08:31 |
| Agent_bob | or apt-file ? | 08:32 |
| Agent_bob | !apt-file | 08:32 |
| ubottu | apt-file is a program that can tell you which package(s) contain(s) a given filename. To install it and generate the database it needs, run "sudo apt-get install apt-file && sudo apt-file update" | 08:32 |

| freakabcd | so which is it? | 08:33 |
| freakabcd | i am pretty sure i have done this before. | 08:33 |
| freakabcd | just that this time it seems weird | 08:34 |
| Agent_bob | freakabcd i'm pretty sure i have never tried to add a mounted iso as a source so without error messages i might be stabbing in the dark | 08:34 |
| freakabcd | Agent_bob, i'm pretty sure it gave an error the very first time i did reload in synaptic | 08:35 |
| freakabcd | but now it doesn;t give that anymore.. grr .. for silent errors | 08:35 |
| Agent_bob | "it's really ok to stab in the dark, if you hit something you can tell by the colour of blood on your knife, whether it's us or them" | 08:36 |
| freakabcd | maybe it is trying to get some newer versions from the internet | 08:37 |
| freakabcd | maybe i should try ti disable the rest of the repos | 08:37 |
| Agent_bob | worth a shot | 08:37 |
| Agent_bob | !info apt-ftparchive | 08:38 |
| ubottu | Package apt-ftparchive does not exist in hardy | 08:38 |
| Agent_bob | oh it's in apt-utils | 08:39 |
| Agent_bob | duh | 08:39 |
| freakabcd | nope | 08:39 |
| freakabcd | if i comment out all the repos except the file: one, it doesn't even find 'kubuntu' when i search :( | 08:40 |
| freakabcd | so obviously it is not being added (poperly perhaps) | 08:40 |
| Agent_bob | less the parenthetical i assume | 08:40 |
| freakabcd | :( | 08:41 |
| freakabcd | talking in #ubuntu is a crazy thing to do. waaay too much traffic, heh | 08:41 |
| Agent_bob | you could mount the iso on the mountpoint of the cdrom and use apt-cdrom to add it maybe ? | 08:42 |
| freakabcd | oooo.. thats something i never thought of! | 08:42 |
| freakabcd | heh, gonna try it now | 08:43 |
| === Maska is now known as Maska-[AFK] | ||

| pteague | ok, i don't think this is good - "The ext3 file system creation in partition #2 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) failed." | 08:43 |
| Agent_bob | maybe ? | 08:43 |
| Agent_bob | add -m maybe. | 08:43 |
| Agent_bob | pteague hmm no i would think not. | 08:44 |
| Agent_bob | pteague gparted ? | 08:44 |
| pteague | doing an install | 08:44 |
| Agent_bob | yeah that's parted qt* i think but anyway you could drop to a console and manually build the fs | 08:45 |
| Agent_bob | you could make sure that it's not mounted... O.o | 08:46 |
| pteague | let me change it from a primary to a logical & see what that does | 08:46 |
| Agent_bob | "primary to a logical" </blinks> | 08:47 |
| Agent_bob | you mean extended ? | 08:47 |
| pteague | yes | 08:47 |
| Agent_bob | shouldn't matter unless you have several primaries already | 08:47 |
| pteague | at least the installer seems to have remembered all the other settings | 08:47 |
| pteague | nope, old laptop | 08:48 |
| Agent_bob | with any "normal" system you can have at least 4 primary partitions one of which can be an extended with many logical disks in it. and with more advanced systems you can have more than 4 primaries | 08:49 |
| pteague | nope... dang, i wonder if i go back to my original partition scheme if that would work | 08:49 |

| Pennycook_ | I'm getting an error in my aptitude full-upgrade: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12669/ . Does it mean that for some reason libtotem has been upgraded, but the packages on which it depends aren't in the repos yet? | 08:52 |
| Agent_bob | Pennycook_ apt-cache policy libtotem-plparser10 | 08:54 |
| Pennycook_ | Agent_bob: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12670/ | 08:55 |
| Agent_bob | Pennycook_ sudo apt-get update ;sudo apt-get upgrade and see if it errors out | 08:56 |
| Pennycook_ | It does. Just had a look through Launchpad and it seems there's a bug. | 08:56 |
| Pennycook_ | Thanks anyway. :) | 08:56 |
| pteague | hmm... "Some of the partitions you created are too small. Please make the following partitions at least this large (in bytes): \ \ /boot 55346688 \ \ If you do not go back to the partitioner and increase the size of these partitions, the installation may fail." ... that's 55,346,688... 55mb? | 08:57 |
| Agent_bob | ok the package is not built correctly Pennycook_ | 08:57 |
| Agent_bob | pteague yep | 08:58 |
| pteague | i think you're right... i think i need to fdisk & manually build | 08:58 |
| Agent_bob | pteague cfdisk | 08:59 |
| Agent_bob | :) | 08:59 |
| pteague | cfdisk ?? | 08:59 |
| Agent_bob | yep. it's more "vision oriented" | 09:00 |
| Agent_bob | same app with a sort of M$ fdisk looking shell on it. | 09:00 |
| pteague | weird - it wasn't deleting the extended partition | 09:04 |
| Agent_bob | imo cfdisk is the better of the three and sfdisk being the lesser of them | 09:04 |
| === er4ever is now known as MafiotuXxL | ||
| Agent_bob | but some like sfdisk | 09:04 |
| Agent_bob | pteague call it habbit, but anytime i reload a system, i always do a cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda first then i never have that kind of errors but it shouldn't ever actually be needed, i just like the all clean aproach to things. | 09:07 |
| freakabcd | damn.. | 09:07 |
| freakabcd | i think i need to find a rewritable 700 MB disc | 09:07 |

| Agent_bob | freakabcd you did use the -m switch on that didn't you? | 09:08 |
| freakabcd | yup | 09:08 |
| freakabcd | it added the cd | 09:08 |
| Agent_bob | but ? | 09:08 |
| freakabcd | and i can see Kubuntu-KDE4 hardy heron in the 'origin' | 09:08 |
| freakabcd | but clicking on it, doesn't even show any kde/qt packages! | 09:09 |
| Agent_bob | mmm k | 09:09 |
| Agent_bob | freakabcd does apt-get install Kubuntu-KDE4 error out ? | 09:10 |
| freakabcd | after i search for kubuntu-kde4-desktop, and click on apply, then it shows it will download 190 megs or so | 09:10 |
| freakabcd | Agent_bob, i can install if i want with just the internet, but i don't want to spend the bandwidth if at all possible | 09:10 |
| Agent_bob | freakabcd did you re-enable the other repos ? | 09:11 |
| uga | I hate this... anybody can recommend a domain name registerer? | 09:11 |

| Agent_bob | why ? | 09:11 |
| uga | there are so many, and lots look almost fake... | 09:11 |
| freakabcd | you want me to disable them? | 09:11 |
| Agent_bob | yeah try it | 09:11 |
| pteague | godady.com ? | 09:11 |
| freakabcd | Agent_bob, disabling them doesn;t even show kde or kubuntu when i search! | 09:11 |

| Agent_bob | pteague every bite on the disk is being writen with 0x0 | 09:31 |
| Agent_bob | so depends on the size of the disk and the speed your system can write | 09:32 |

| Agent_bob | on my lappy about 17/18 minutes but it's not fast and has 74g hd | 09:32 |

| Agent_bob | yeap | 09:33 |
| pteague | k | 09:33 |
| Agent_bob | that means it reached the end. | 09:33 |

| Agent_bob | still should NOT mention partition table 4 | 09:36 |
| pteague | well, i am on a live cd & there's still a /dev/sda5 listed | 09:36 |

| JoshOvki | Agent_bob: when i first started out a few years ago i had so many problems with grub | 10:04 |
| * JoshOvki says a few years ago, but its coming up 10 years | 10:04 | |
| pteague | i've had issues with lilo as well... neither's a silver bullet :( | 10:05 |
| * Agent_bob wonders how they expect 700m compressed to fit uncompressed into 128m .... | 10:05 | |
| pteague | hehe | 10:05 |
| pteague | oh dang... & no swap =) | 10:05 |
| JoshOvki | Agent_bob: tight squeeze? | 10:05 |
| JoshOvki | ;) | 10:05 |
| JoshOvki | right i gotta go shopping, lucky me. catch ya all later | 10:06 |
| pteague | i may use ubuntu server to set up partitions so there's at least some swap | 10:06 |
| Agent_bob | JoshOvki heh yeah. my issue is that it writes more than 512bytes into the MBR thus adversly affecting the first sector of the hd i don't use partitions, so that means it hoses the superblock of my fs | 10:06 |
| Agent_bob | JoshOvki k. tre bon chance shopping | 10:07 |
| pteague | hehe... must be with the SO | 10:07 |
| Agent_bob | :) | 10:08 |
| pteague | he sounded overly excited about it | 10:08 |
| * Agent_bob never minded spending other peoples money :))) | 10:09 | |
| Agent_bob | it's his own that he doesn't like to part with | 10:09 |
| Agent_bob | howto make less print colours rather than the code that sets the colour ? | 10:12 |
| pteague | hehe... this had a huge hard drive! - 12.1gb | 10:14 |
| Agent_bob | ah found it.... -R | 10:15 |
| Agent_bob | pteague untill last year i was still working on 4g hd's | 10:15 |
| Agent_bob | but three of them add up to 12g so... :) | 10:16 |
| Agent_bob | actually i had one box with 8 drives in it... kinda nice for older hardware i really liked | 10:17 |
| pteague | hmm... ok, 1gb swap at beginning of disk & the rest is ext3 for / ... do i put the bootable flag on sda1 or sda2 ? | 10:18 |
| Agent_bob | doesn't matter if there is one | 10:18 |
| josef_ | !sound | 10:18 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 10:18 |
| Agent_bob | grub is going to ignore the bootflag anyway | 10:18 |
| josef_ | hmm.. what's the one for hda intel cards? | 10:18 |
| Agent_bob | !hda | 10:19 |
| ubottu | Factoid hda not found | 10:19 |
| Agent_bob | well it was | 10:19 |
| pteague | !intel | 10:19 |
| ubottu | Factoid intel not found | 10:19 |
| Agent_bob | !sound-hda | 10:19 |
| ubottu | Factoid sound-hda not found | 10:19 |
| jussi01 | !intelhda | 10:19 |
| ubottu | For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 10:19 |
| Agent_bob | pfft the stand in bot is not up to par | 10:19 |
| josef_ | ah thanks jussi01 :) | 10:19 |
| jussi01 | Agent_bob: you leave ubottu alone - shes trying her best | 10:20 |
| Agent_bob | she's fired | 10:20 |
| Agent_bob | you hear me ? F I R E D ! | 10:20 |
| Agent_bob | :) | 10:20 |
| pteague | nah, just needs an upgrade | 10:20 |
| jussi01 | Agent_bob: you are fired! its exactly the same db as ubotu :D | 10:20 |
| jussi01 | Agent_bob: learn to use !search | 10:21 |

| Chrysalis | jumped over to check out kde 4.0.4 and everything is a mess. . . panel is gone, programs crash etc. . . how do i get rid of it to try to reinstall while keeping me kde3 intact? | 10:22 |
| pteague | any idea how to tell if a webserver is sending gzipped content? | 10:28 |
| Agent_bob | pteague sniff for the gzip header ? | 10:29 |
| Agent_bob | sorry, i mean nope not a clue. | 10:29 |
| pteague | was using curl... checked the headers & nothing in there about it & the html page is standard html... wasn't sure if it'd be garbled or not | 10:30 |
| * Agent_bob whistles inocently, and walks away | 10:30 | |
| pteague | i need to figure out who made this website... it'll be another local co for my friend to rip into | 10:32 |
| freakabcd | Agent_bob, i gave up. i can;t find a 700 MB rewritable :( | 10:32 |
| freakabcd | getting everything off the internet now | 10:32 |
| Agent_bob | freakabcd sorry to hear that. | 10:33 |
| freakabcd | its unfortunate, but i have the bandwidth for this month. so its ok | 10:33 |
| * Agent_bob has bandnarrowness in place of bandwidth | 10:34 | |
| pteague | if you guys ever set up a web server... make sure you allow people to cache stuff unless it's absolutely necessary not to on something | 10:34 |
| Agent_bob | cuts down on data transfer does it | 10:35 |
| pteague | yeah | 10:36 |
| Agent_bob | makes cracking easier too | 10:37 |
| pteague | ? | 10:38 |

| Agent_bob | i don't speak chilineese ;/ | 10:41 |
| Agent_bob | pteague you mentioned swap eariler, i actually made a swap file and used it some today. heavy photo editing. | 10:44 |
| Agent_bob | used a GUI for that too | 10:44 |
| pteague | i need to get either 64bit or server working on my desktop so i can make full use of my ram... i've been using up my 1gb swap quite a bit... firefox is a hog... especially when i've got 60+ tabs open | 10:45 |
| Agent_bob | can't imagine... | 10:46 |
| crazy_bus | I installed the kde4 khangman and loaded it via /usr/lib/kde4/bin/khangman but it fails with this error >ASSERT failure in QList<T>::operator[]: "index out of range", file /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qlist.h, line 399 | 10:46 |
| chalcedony | pteague a man after my own heart | 10:47 |
| jdavies | chalcedony: ? | 10:47 |
| chalcedony | my son used to get so mad at me for having so much open | 10:47 |
| Agent_bob | chalcedony :) | 10:47 |
| chalcedony | greetings jdavies:) | 10:47 |
| jdavies | hi | 10:48 |
| chalcedony | if i upgraded to gutsy (just the download and reboot) do i need to do anything else before changing to hardy? | 10:49 |
| pteague | i had somebody tell me i was using my computer wrong... when you need to browse something you open firefox & find what you need, then you close it & open your editor... i can see where he's going, but #1 i'm lazy & #2 i don't like sitting around for 10 seconds (talking about windows here) to wait for something to open that was already open... | 10:49 |
| Agent_bob | http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/430949 crazy_bus | 10:51 |
| Agent_bob | not interesting really, all i found on that tho | 10:52 |
| pteague | chalcedony> i think that's all you need to do | 10:52 |
| Agent_bob | chalcedony you might find it easier to just grab the iso and fresh install | 10:53 |
| Agent_bob | only a though. | 10:53 |
| chalcedony | Agent_bob i thought about it and decided not to | 10:54 |
| Agent_bob | k | 10:54 |
| chalcedony | i'm used to my 'tracks' | 10:54 |
| Agent_bob | you'll dl three times as much if that matters to you | 10:54 |
| chalcedony | hmm ? | 10:54 |
| chalcedony | why is that? | 10:54 |
| chalcedony | 2x for two steps | 10:55 |
| crazy_bus | Agent_bob: so nothing I can really do about it? | 10:55 |
| Agent_bob | the gutsy upgrade then the hardy upgrade will == about three times the iso size. but then you would probably want to update the hardy which negates part of that... so never mind my rambling chalcedony | 10:56 |
| Agent_bob | crazy_bus you can file a bug on it. i can't help you do anyething more with it... | 10:56 |
| crazy_bus | thanks anyway | 10:57 |
| Agent_bob | ;/ | 10:57 |
| chalcedony | i was using do-release-upgrade , i expected it to go to hardy, but it had me reboot .. and now it's gutsy? | 10:58 |
| chalcedony | is there a different command to get Hardy ? | 10:58 |
| pteague | do an aptitude update | 10:58 |
| Agent_bob | it doesn't skip releases to the best of my knowledge only Agent_bob upgrades streight through | 10:59 |
| pteague | then i think you can do the release upgrade | 10:59 |
| KRF | is it possible to change the color of plasma panel by now? | 11:02 |
| KRF | or having two rows? | 11:02 |
| Agent_bob | ah! 25 minutes and i'm finished for the next 62 hours | 11:07 |
| Agent_bob | so i'm leaving no to do final rounds. shalom! | 11:07 |
| pteague | well i missed it setting up ext3, but it's definitely past there cause it's copying files... thanks for telling me about /dev/zero :) | 11:11 |
| chalcedony | pteague i did aptitude upgrade .. 0 removed 0 added | 11:12 |
| chalcedony | tried safe-upgrade too | 11:12 |
| pteague | no, update... to update what it has in the way of packages cached... might have done that when it updated to gutsy, but i don't know | 11:12 |
| chalcedony | how to go to hardiy? | 11:12 |
| chalcedony | ah | 11:12 |
| chalcedony | i think it did | 11:13 |
| chalcedony | i tried both.. 0s | 11:13 |
| pteague | try the release upgrade again? | 11:14 |
| chalcedony | ok | 11:14 |
| chalcedony | that should do it? | 11:14 |
| pteague | not sure... i haven't done it yet myself due to possible issues with hardware | 11:16 |
| chalcedony | System Error: E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. | 11:16 |
| chalcedony | and stopped | 11:16 |
| pteague | ack | 11:17 |
| pteague | syn... | 11:17 |
| chalcedony | type that? | 11:17 |
| pteague | no, that was a joke :) | 11:17 |
| chalcedony | ah | 11:17 |
| chalcedony | be careful, i migiht take someone literally | 11:18 |
| chalcedony | might | 11:18 |
| chalcedony | what to do now? | 11:18 |
| pteague | ack! as in eep! or oops! ... but ack is also a hello message in protocols to which the response is syn ;) | 11:18 |
| chalcedony | hehehe lol | 11:19 |
| chalcedony | um it says to report the bug | 11:19 |
| chalcedony | i can't copy paste on that box now | 11:19 |
| pteague | i can't remember how to deal with broken packages without trying to install something | 11:19 |
| chalcedony | it won't let me open files | 11:19 |
| * chalcedony taps toe.. i EXPECT geniuses! | 11:20 | |
| chalcedony | ;) | 11:20 |
| pteague | hmm... | 11:20 |
| chalcedony | we can look for someone else | 11:21 |
| pteague | can you get the alt+ctrl+f[0-9] terminal? i typically use alt+ctrl+f2 ... & don't forget that alt+ctrl+f7 brings you back to gui | 11:21 |
| chalcedony | umm ok.. why? | 11:22 |
| chalcedony | gives me a login | 11:22 |
| chalcedony | f7 gives me a flashing prompt in the top left of a blank screen | 11:23 |
| pteague | geeze... i should stop trying to pay attention to other people's problems... i'm to far gone... i thought i read something from you that said you couldn't type anything | 11:23 |
| chalcedony | no what i said was it won't let me create a file : w filename | 11:24 |
| chalcedony | but it;'s not taking me back to the gui | 11:24 |
| pteague | i know -f tries to aggressively fix problems, but i don't know if that'd work or not | 11:25 |
| pteague | ok, i wonder if there's something wrong with 1 of those broken packages then that's causing the gui to be messed up | 11:26 |
| chalcedony | pteague that would be interesting | 11:27 |
| chalcedony | i'd like to have the error msg back | 11:27 |
| pteague | log in to that terminal & restart kdm | 11:28 |
| chalcedony | pteague i like this channel but i have ubuntu (command please?) | 11:29 |
| eagles05 | im trying to setup kde4 to use a static ip addresss how do i do it with ifconfig | 11:30 |
| pteague | oh, then you'll need to restart gdm... sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 11:30 |
| chalcedony | wow there is no gui with control alt f7 | 11:33 |
| chalcedony | i relogged in but it won't go there | 11:33 |
| pteague | after you restart gdm shouldn't need to go to ctrl+alt+f7, should put you at a gui login | 11:34 |
| chalcedony | it says kinit:No resume image, doing normal boot | 11:34 |
| chalcedony | i got a non-gui login | 11:35 |
| pteague | when did you reboot last? | 11:36 |
| chalcedony | pteague after it upgraded to gutsy this evening | 11:37 |
| chalcedony | it did a shutdown | 11:37 |
| chalcedony | then it got that error and now this | 11:37 |
| pteague | hmm... | 11:39 |
| chalcedony | that was a feisty to gutsy upgrade | 11:39 |
| chalcedony | and i already have two sick computers (other) | 11:40 |
| harry | hey chaps | 11:40 |
| pteague | & `aptitude upgrade` doesn't give you anything? | 11:40 |
| chalcedony | greetings harry | 11:41 |
| chalcedony | it checked for things and ran the program, but ended with 0 | 11:41 |
| pteague | i've not done much with apt, but i think there's a way to check for broken packages, but i'm not sure how... or what to do once found | 11:44 |
| pteague | might check #ubuntu & #ubuntu-server | 11:45 |
| noam_ | so... that libtotem update... it's a bug, right? | 11:47 |
| chalcedony | pteague i'll also join #ubuntu-server but thank you for all your help, it's not you it's the upgrade | 11:48 |
| crazy_bus | libqt4-debug: Depends: libqt4-gui (= 4.3.4-0ubuntu3) but 4.4.0-1ubuntu3~hardy1 is to be installed :: any idea's on how to fix this? | 11:51 |
| fernando | hi, I have update my kubuntu system and vista gone from my grub list... | 11:52 |
| fernando | how can I restore vista?? | 11:52 |
| crazy_bus | ah I see the problem now, still not how to fix it | 11:52 |
| fernando | any help..? | 11:58 |
| noam_ | there's a broken package update for libtotem-plupdate10. i guess a bug has been reported already? | 11:58 |
| fernando | I can find information about restart linux after vista, but not in the other direction.. | 11:58 |
| fernando | *restore | 11:58 |
| noam_ | fernando: http://www.planetmy.com/blog/how-to-fixmbr-using-windows-vista-bootable-disk/ will remove the GRUB menu, i believe | 12:00 |
| fernando | noam: I not need to remove grub.. I have both system.. my problems is after I update kubutu, the entry of vista gone.. | 12:00 |
| fernando | I need only to restore the vista entry on my grub menu.. | 12:01 |
| ruben | Hi I'm new to kde, my resolution is set to low imo. But I can only slide the bar to 800x600, why can't I set a higher resolution??? | 12:01 |
| noam_ | well, all windows vista grub entries look the same, i think, so try adding an entry as described here: http://www.pronetworks.org/forum/about78184.html | 12:01 |
| eagles05 | fernando: i did duel boot for a friend | 12:02 |
| eagles05 | ended up having to redo it | 12:02 |
| eagles05 | u have to install kubuntu first then install windows vista | 12:03 |
| noam_ | what? i haven't tried it but it's obviously possible. i installed kubuntu after i installed winxp | 12:03 |
| eagles05 | noam_: thats xp but i did duel boot with vista and kubuntu it ended up messing up for my friend and i had to redo it puting kubuntu first then vista | 12:04 |
| eagles05 | this was after doing some digging around on google | 12:04 |
| fernando | noam. I am restarting the system..I hope that's it | 12:05 |
| fernando | noam. thanks.. :-) | 12:06 |
| ruben | how can I configure X to a higher resolution? | 12:06 |
| pteague | i've not messed with vista, but prev versions i've always had to install win first & then linux... windows overwrites the boot stuff & won't let you load anything else | 12:08 |
| ubuntu_ | promo | 12:08 |
| pteague | ruben, whats the highest res allowed on your box ? | 12:08 |
| ubuntu_ | hello everybody | 12:08 |
| ruben | I dont know, but defenitly not 800x600, I want to have 1280X 1024, but I can only slide the bar in de monitor options to 800x600 max. | 12:11 |
| pteague | you can hack your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to have higher resolutions... the other thing to check is to see if you have the right driver for your video card | 12:12 |
| dev_eddie | can someone confirm me that libtotem-plparser10 is broken in the repository right now? | 12:13 |
| ruben | pteague, where to check te driver? | 12:14 |
| pteague | what video card do you have? | 12:14 |
| pteague | or do you know? :) | 12:14 |
| noam_ | fernando: well did it work? :) | 12:15 |

| eagles05 | whats the commaned to kill x | 12:39 |
| Dragnslcr | ctrl-alt-backspace will restart X | 12:39 |
| eagles05 | Dragnslcr: i dont wanna restart it i wanna kill x so i can start x in the ssh session im currently logged into on my other lapto | 12:40 |
| eagles05 | laptop* | 12:40 |
| Dragnslcr | From a terminal, it's just like any other process | 12:40 |
| Dragnslcr | i.e. kill | 12:40 |
| eagles05 | i did sudo killx and it didnt work | 12:40 |
| eagles05 | said killx command not found | 12:40 |
| Dragnslcr | Try kill <pid> | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | if you kill the window manager you will restart the X session totally. it depends on EXACTLY what you are wanting to do. | 12:41 |
| Dragnslcr | If that doesn't work, you can try kill -9 | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | Killing the window manager is different from killing X. | 12:41 |
| |Dreams| | can someone help m eplease adept keeps crashing http://paste.ubuntu.com/12703/ | 12:41 |
| eagles05 | Dr_willis: i wanna start x on my ssh session | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | I normally start a x session locally, with a xterm, and ssh to the remote box then start the window manager and tools.. The idea of 'starting x', on a ssh session.... seems... wrong | 12:42 |
| noam_ | the command is xkill, not killx | 12:42 |
| noam_ | in KDE it has the shortcut ctrl alt escape | 12:42 |
| Dr_willis | In fact on my laptop - theres a 'secure x session' session entry i recall that lets you do that. | 12:42 |
| noam_ | oh wait, you want to kill X. disregard me | 12:43 |
| Dr_willis | noam_, im confused also. :) | 12:43 |
| andreas__ | When i try to delete program whit the tool "add/remove programs" it's only install the program twise. who i delete programs ? | 12:44 |
| |Dreams| | can someone help me please adept keeps crashing http://paste.ubuntu.com/12703/ and synaptic wont load either | 12:44 |
| eyemon | hi | 12:45 |
| Dr_willis | andreas__, the adept manager is a more powerfull package manager tool you may want to try out. it dose the same thing as add/remove only with more optuons. You will eventually want to learn to use it. (or install synaptic and use that, its a similer front end also) | 12:47 |
| Dr_willis | andreas__, or use the command line 'apt-get' tools - again.. these all install/remove the same programs. they are just different front ends to the apt system | 12:48 |
| chalcedony | Dr_willis HELP! I upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy with "do-release-upgrade", it finished Gutsy and restarted, I got the gui screen and tried to update aptitude, 0 % upgraded etc. I tried running "do-release-upgrade" but got an error: System Error: E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. I told someone that I could not open a file to paste the error into. He misunderstood me, he told me to do control+alt+f(1-9) and coltrol+ | 12:49 |
| |Dreams| | if anyone has had the same problem with segmentation usig adept then this is for you sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin | 12:49 |
| |Dreams| | works liek a charm | 12:49 |
| andreas__ | Dr_willis: ty man, i gonna take a look at adept manager, if it dont work i will try apt-get | 12:50 |
| chalcedony | |Dreams| glad for you :) | 12:50 |
| Dr_willis | andreas__, i tend to use synaptic, and the command line apt-get tools. | 12:50 |
| andreas__ | is synaptic instaled by default ? | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | chalcedony, i rarely if ever upgrade. I normally do clean installs. Sorry cant really help. | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | andreas__, no. :) does it matter ? if you want it install it. | 12:51 |

| andreas__ | well, i instaled the nvidia drivers, and now is the screen size max is 640x480, who i make it bigger ? | 13:39 |
| Dr_willis_ | I normally install and use the 2 nvidia config tools after i install the drivers | 13:49 |
| Steve-cal | If I go to KDE System Settings, click "Sound System", and the click the "Hardware" tab, I can choose which audio device I want to use. It only gives me rather generic choices such as ALSA and OSS. When I'm in Gnome however, I can choose my specific device "VIA 82C686A/B rev 20". Why can't I do that in KDE? | 13:50 |
| mateusz | ello people | 13:51 |
| Tokeiito | hello | 13:51 |
| Tokeiito | i have problem with alsa in latest kubuntu. only one program can use audio, other just pops error. is there a way to fix that? | 13:52 |
| mateusz | should yes | 13:52 |
| mateusz | which version u using of kubuntu | 13:53 |
| Tokeiito | 8.04 | 13:53 |
| Tokeiito | and using alsa for audio | 13:53 |
| mateusz | yeah same so what might be the issue | 13:53 |
| mateusz | ok | 13:53 |
| Tokeiito | here is the example: if i launch amarok, then java application doesnt has sound. if i launch that java app, then amarok drops me error, that alsa is busy | 13:54 |
| roberto | I cannot hear sound with my audigy in ubuntu 8.04 and alsa seems ok | 13:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | What audigy specifically? | 13:56 |
| Tokeiito | maybe there is some alsa configuration option to enable multi channels? | 13:56 |

| baudthief | I've just (re)built my new machine and reinstalled Kubuntu 8.04 - My new GFX card is a nvidia 8800GTS, I installed compiz through synaptic, but each time I start it says I have no composite extention? | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | howdy all | 14:20 |
| baudthief | BluesKaj: hello | 14:21 |
| BluesKaj | baudthief, edit the xorg file and enable composite , or you could post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file on pastebin so we can have a look . | 14:23 |
| baudthief | BluesKaj: already enabled in xorg, will pastebin xorg.conf right now | 14:24 |

| baudthief | farchord: hah, to be honest I thought of uninstalling it - but it's just not the same. I also tried out openSUSE for the past couple of days (figured i'd see how it compares) - the few suse users I asked for help are bastards though. | 14:26 |
| baudthief | *were | 14:27 |
| baudthief | Kubuntu always sorta felt like home though lol | 14:27 |
| farchord | baudthief: granted, but I'm a linux gamer, and I do believe to use my PC as fast as it can be and the least buggy possible. So Compiz Fusion hinders that philosophy lol | 14:27 |
| baudthief | farchord: haha I always run 'kwin --replace' before gaming :p | 14:28 |
| farchord | Imo if I wanted eye candy instead of performance I'd install Windows Vista with Object Desktop lol | 14:28 |
| farchord | heh | 14:28 |
| baudthief | BLASPHEMY! | 14:28 |
| farchord | lol | 14:28 |
| baudthief | might have to for DX10 later anyway :P | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | baudthief, I don't see anything wrong, ...perhaps the ppl at #compiz-fusion can help | 14:29 |
| farchord | Meh. Wine will get into DX10 sooner or later | 14:29 |
| baudthief | had to stick to dx81 for Half-Life/portal ;\ | 14:30 |
| farchord | baudthief: : what error do you get when you try to enable it in console? | 14:30 |
| baudthief | farchord: Checking for Composite extension: not present. - same error for XGL | 14:32 |
| baudthief | #compiz-fusion say it's xinerama that's causing it, I like xinerama :( | 14:32 |

| baudthief | back in a flash, restarting X | 14:41 |
| farchord | andreas__: it's actually recommended to try to do it from gnome | 14:41 |
| farchord | andreas__: but if not, yes it should normally be, just be careful and do lots 'o backups ;) | 14:41 |
| andreas__ | farchord: 50hz is the max i can turn on in X | 14:42 |
| farchord | andreas__: ahh just be sure your screen can handle it or you might end up harming it | 14:42 |
| BluesKaj | andreas__, i wouldn't fool with the text , go thru the menu with the command line , sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 14:42 |
| andreas__ | run 100hz on windwos, so it's np | 14:42 |
| farchord | that seems high to me, but okay | 14:43 |

| eyemon | help | 14:47 |

| eyemon | GUYYYYZZZZZZZZZZz | 14:48 |
| eyemon | does any one know about this?? | 14:48 |
| BluesKaj | !patience | eyemon | 14:48 |
| ubottu | eyemon: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 14:48 |
| Dr_willis_ | I wonder if the lcd is actually doing 100hz, or if it is just defaulting to a lower setting anyway. | 14:50 |
| Dr_willis_ | initramfs - is loaded by the kernel to setupdrivers and other things so the main system can boot. | 14:51 |
| farchord | andreas__: anyway refresh rates are not that critical with lcds, it hurts eyes with CRT but it's fine on lcd, I wouldn't bother with it | 14:51 |
| Dr_willis_ | I was thinking the same thing farchord | 14:51 |
| eyemon | but when i restarted after updating somethin comes up saying "(initramfs)" | 14:51 |
| Dr_willis_ | eyemon, no idea on that. You asked what a initrdramfs was. | 14:51 |
| Dr_willis_ | byeee... gotta go shopping | 14:51 |

| Dr_willis_ | leatherdruid, there are tools that can backup/restore - but you may have to change some files. for the uuid and other things | 14:52 |
| leatherdruid | so I'll have to reintall? | 14:52 |
| farchord | eyemon: for the record, initramfs is a kernel feature.... if it gets stuck there your linux install might be bricked | 14:52 |

| mattycoze | hey guys, wow - kinda blown away with the kde build of ubuntu 8.04... can someone tell me if it's advisable to remove the gnome enviroment files? | 16:02 |
| AngelKill | mattycoze: You can remove the Gnome enviorment, but its not suggested, because the Gnome holds a few files that might be needed to help run the system in a stable way. | 16:03 |
| Jucato | AngelKill: not really | 16:03 |
| Jucato | !purekde | 16:03 |
| ubottu | purekde is If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 16:04 |
| mattycoze | AngelKill okay... what i did was download the gnome version first (fresh install) and then used apt-get to install the kde version... but gnome defaults seems to be activated by defauly | 16:04 |
| mattycoze | i like konquer and all the associated programs; amarok ect | 16:04 |
| AngelKill | Jucato: alright true, but a as a Gnome addict myself, I know its possible but to remove Gnome. But the question is wont it damage the GTK installs that needs the Gnome evnio? | 16:05 |
| Jucato | Kubuntu and Ubuntu use the same "base". neither GNOME nor KDE is actually necessary to run a stable system | 16:05 |
| Jucato | AngelKill: not if he wants to remove Gnome | 16:05 |
| mattycoze | heh | 16:06 |
| AngelKill | ok, another thing learned :) | 16:06 |
| Jucato | anyway, you can safely have the two installed with no side effect except for having more apps in your menus and more disk space used | 16:06 |
| mattycoze | AngelKill so what can and can't i do? | 16:06 |
| AngelKill | mattycoze: just follow the link provided, it is actually useful but I suggest reading it through before doing any thing | 16:07 |
| mattycoze | okay | 16:07 |
| mattycoze | Jucato do you recommend? | 16:08 |
| mattycoze | just to check, i've got a wireless card and an nvidia card (that's currently working via envy) | 16:09 |
| Jucato | hm.. there's no technical reason for or against it. it's all up to you whether you want to keep both installed | 16:09 |
| cappy_ | !help | 16:10 |
| ubottu | I am ubottu, the all-knowing infobot, standing in for ubotu while he's getting his haircut done, nose powdered, updated and transitioned to his new gorgeous looks in the near future ;) | 16:10 |
| Jucato | but if you're new to KDE, I'd suggest keeping Gnome as backup | 16:10 |
| mattycoze | okay then | 16:10 |
| monax | join #ubuntu-ru. | 16:10 |
| Jucato | er.. new to KDE and Kubuntu. at least until you get a hang of how to drive the thing | 16:10 |
| cappy_ | !nvidia | 16:10 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 16:10 |
| mattycoze | jucato well i suppose i could always install the gnome files again right? | 16:10 |
| Jucato | mattycoze: yeah, the package would be "ubuntu-desktop" | 16:11 |

| gsa | i mean root permissions | 16:28 |
| crimsun | kdesu wireshark | 16:29 |
| gsa | tnx ill try that right now | 16:29 |
| madberry | gtt you mean openssh? | 16:30 |
| gsa | crimsun ty it works | 16:30 |
| crimsun | gsa: np | 16:31 |
| madberry | gtt if you mean ssh then just empty this folder ~/.ssh to create new keys | 16:31 |
| SlimeyPete | erm, the local ssh keys are in /etc | 16:32 |
| SlimeyPete | well, mine are anyway. | 16:33 |
| madberry | not in my case | 16:33 |
| SlimeyPete | ~/.ssh just contains info pertaining to other systems, for me | 16:33 |
| farchord | ssh client should be in ~/.ssh | 16:33 |
| farchord | yes | 16:33 |
| farchord | ssh server would be somewhere else | 16:33 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah, and isn't it the server keys that need to be regenerated? | 16:34 |
| farchord | take it this way, SSH server doesn't run under your username so it can't be under your home folder | 16:34 |
| madberry | you have to empty the client side to get new keys | 16:34 |
| farchord | isn't the problem on the server side? And when the client connects it should auto-grab the new keys no? | 16:34 |
| SlimeyPete | yeah. | 16:35 |
| farchord | Client abides by the server, so the server is what needs to be fixed | 16:35 |
| madberry | it doesn't i had the same problem and this fixed it | 16:35 |
| SlimeyPete | so the vulnkeys util doesn't pick anything up now? | 16:36 |
| farchord | More infos on that: http://www.linuxsecurity.com/content/view/136970/ | 16:37 |
| SlimeyPete | right... so both may need to be regenerated | 16:39 |
| madberry | yes but as soon as you delete client side server will create new keys for both | 16:39 |
| SlimeyPete | madberry: it does? why? surely the local server doesn't care about the local client's keys. | 16:41 |
| madberry | no the remote server generates the keys right so if the client doesn't have any key new key will be created by the remote server | 16:43 |
| SlimeyPete | oh... I think we're talking at cross-purposes | 16:43 |
| SlimeyPete | I am referring to the local server installation | 16:43 |
| madberry | o ok | 16:43 |
| SlimeyPete | i.e. a machine with both client and server installed will need to have both sets of keys regenerated. | 16:43 |
| SlimeyPete | to be safe | 16:44 |
| madberry | yes | 16:44 |
| hdevalence | will 8.10 use KDE 4.1? | 16:44 |

| bradhex | mkultras, no, I'm using kde 4.0 | 18:31 |
| bradhex | mkultras, I just have a list of sound cards and an option to prefer or defer | 18:31 |

| McRib | I'm using Konversation in Hardy (Gnome) and whenever I click on URL links, it refuses to open in any browser. I've tried setting the custom browser option but still no dice... any ideas? | 18:32 |
| talavis | Bizzeh: It should be possible to check in Adept; select the package, choose details and then the installed files tab | 18:32 |
| bradhex | haha, from room to room =) thanks. | 18:32 |
| Bizzeh | hmmn | 18:33 |
| Bizzeh | it doesnt have the description for what i believe to be phpmyadmin | 18:33 |
| Bizzeh | its describing some Py templating system | 18:33 |
| talavis | Bizzeh: i think it should be possible to check the details anyway | 18:34 |

| uga | guys, shouldn't /etc/resolv.conf override any DNS? | 18:37 |
| uga | firefox is behaving stupid here, and I really don't know why | 18:37 |
| Bizzeh | is there a sidebar for kde like the one in vista? | 18:40 |
| fdoving | uga: yeah, but network-connection apps, like network-manager and others might modify the resolv.conf file. | 18:40 |
| Toejam | Or ignore it | 18:40 |
| uga | fdoving: that might explain, thanks | 18:40 |
| * Toejam hates on Network manager | 18:40 | |
| uga | fdoving: somehow firefox picks up the correct IP resolve first, but after a few clicks, it goes to an older one, so until the whole dns thing is set up, I'm trying to override it | 18:41 |
| fdoving | uga: are you configuring your network via DHCP? - you can override dhcp settings in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf | 18:41 |
| uga | it's like after a while it uses a different name server | 18:41 |
| uga | ah nice idea, yes | 18:41 |
| fdoving | uga: have a look at "prepend" and "superseed" (or somethingl ike that) | 18:42 |
| uga | yes, there's a prepending option | 18:42 |
| uga | fdoving: resolv.conf wasn't altered though | 18:43 |
| uga | can networkmanager it override resolv.conf settings without altering it? | 18:43 |
| fdoving | uga: not that i'm aware of, no. | 18:44 |

| morphius | I also changed the type to 83 (Linux) in fdisk | 18:52 |
| morphius | I commented out "ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid0 num-devices=4 UUID=ea89faf9:d8d09d48:606c7615:a045ad62" in mdadm.conf too | 18:52 |

| OmnificienT | hello | 19:37 |
| OmnificienT | Could someone explain the difference between the desktop and the alternate versions? | 19:37 |
| gwp | hows it going OmnificienT | 19:37 |
| OmnificienT | im ok | 19:38 |
| jussi01 | OmnificienT: simply the desktop takes you to a full ubuntu environment (loads ubuntu) where as the alternate only installs ubuntu. | 19:38 |
| thor | good evening every one | 19:38 |
| gwp | OmnificienT: you mean the multidesk? Its just an extension of your primary desktop, some people play games on 2 and do work on 1, so their old lady doesnt know they are gaming | 19:38 |
| jussi01 | both have the same end pruduct after install | 19:38 |
| gwp | ahh, i didnt understand his question | 19:39 |
| OmnificienT | Oh thanks :p I couldn't find that information. | 19:39 |

| gwp | anyone know anything about that wow issue I have? | 19:39 |
| thor | could some one please help me with installing vmware server on 8.04 64bit | 19:39 |
| Toejam | jussi01: Not really | 19:39 |
| Toejam | but pretty simplified :) | 19:39 |
| Toejam | !vmware | 19:40 |
| ubottu | VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 19:40 |
| Toejam | I forget if we have a vmware server pacakage | 19:40 |
| Toejam | gwp: Wht version of WOW? | 19:40 |
| Toejam | gwp: Likely that #winehq would be better at fielding that | 19:40 |
| gwp | Toejam: the latest update with burning crusade | 19:40 |
| Toejam | gwp: Wait sorry I meant version of Wine :) | 19:41 |
| gwp | aww | 19:41 |
| gwp | 0.9.59 | 19:41 |
| Toejam | Yeah they should have info on that in #winehq | 19:42 |
| Toejam | Lets just say WOW is a app they hear about a lot | 19:42 |
| thor | not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy | 19:42 |
| thor | I am running 8.04 | 19:43 |
| Toejam | Well you are on Hardy so... | 19:43 |
| thor | well so it seems vmware server is not in the repository so I downloaded the tarball | 19:44 |
| thor | and followed the help onlin e | 19:44 |
| thor | but well it seems no matter what i try it dont whant to worjk | 19:44 |
| thor | no one here who can actualy help me with this problim | 19:46 |
| Toejam | thor: I'm not sure is it in the new packages repo ? | 19:46 |
| thor | no it's not in the repository I have all of them enabled | 19:47 |
| Toejam | Hmm | 19:48 |
| Toejam | what error do you get? | 19:48 |
| edju | Anyone w/ a pointer for a solution to the kaffeine "xine was unable to initialize any sound drivers"? All I could find on Google was foe SUSE - not relevant. | 19:49 |
| edju | *foe*for* | 19:49 |
| Toejam | I've no idea about vmware btw I'm just seeing if it's something non-obvious rather than vmware specific | 19:49 |
| thor | VMware Server is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured for the running kernel. To (re-)configure it, invoke the following command: | 19:49 |
| user__ | how do I sudo cp everything in a directory? | 19:50 |
| Toejam | user__: to where? | 19:50 |
| user__ | new firefox rc1 | 19:51 |
| user__ | I want to overwite my old stuff | 19:51 |
| Toejam | user__: umm | 19:51 |
| user__ | don't want to sudo cp each thing | 19:51 |
| Toejam | well you could mv the dir and not lose everything | 19:51 |
| user__ | directory is: /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/ | 19:51 |
| user__ | won't let me drag and drop so I guess I need to sudo | 19:52 |
| Toejam | and you really should probably be having external packages in a seperate place from system installed ones | 19:52 |
| Toejam | yes you do but I would advise to install FFRc1 in a personal dir | 19:52 |
| user__ | I see | 19:52 |
| user__ | so I just extracted it | 19:52 |
| Toejam | if you want a system wide RC1 ubuntu will be providing packages soon | 19:52 |
| user__ | how come when I click the executable nothing happens | 19:52 |
| user__ | ie firefox-bin | 19:53 |
| Toejam | I don't know :) maybe it's erroring out ? | 19:53 |
| Toejam | run it from the command line | 19:53 |
| user__ | ok | 19:53 |
| Toejam | cd to the dir and then ./firefox | 19:53 |
| Toejam | see if it throws errors | 19:53 |
| user__ | ah | 19:54 |
| user__ | that worked | 19:54 |
| user__ | cool | 19:54 |
| Toejam | :-) | 19:54 |
| user__ | what is ./firefox? | 19:54 |
| user__ | ./ | 19:54 |
| user__ | make firefox? | 19:54 |
| Toejam | it runs an executable file in this dir | 19:55 |
| Toejam | . means here | 19:55 |
| user__ | is there a way to make a shortcut? | 19:55 |
| Toejam | sure | 19:55 |
| Toejam | where do you want it? | 19:55 |
| user__ | desktop would be great | 19:55 |
| user__ | or my start menu | 19:55 |
| McRib | start menu :P | 19:55 |
| user__ | um | 19:55 |
| Toejam | right click the desktop and LInk to application | 19:55 |
| user__ | KMenu | 19:55 |
| Toejam | new -> Link to application | 19:56 |
| Toejam | 3rd tab | 19:56 |
| digitaloktay | how can i compile the new version of firefox? | 19:56 |
| user__ | ah that was so easy | 19:56 |
| user__ | thanks toejam | 19:56 |
| Toejam | make sure the work path is the dir that you extracted | 19:56 |
| user__ | yup, just like windows | 19:56 |
| user__ | very intuitive | 19:56 |
| Toejam | and the application is of course Windows :) | 19:56 |
| Toejam | Doh | 19:57 |
| Toejam | Firefox | 19:57 |
| Toejam | You broke my train! | 19:57 |
| user__ | actually strange | 19:57 |
| * Toejam watches his train of thought fly off the tracks | 19:57 | |
| user__ | it seems to be permanently loading | 19:57 |
| user__ | Loading application... | 19:57 |
| user__ | nothing | 19:57 |
| user__ | '/home/user/Desktop/firefox-3.0rc1/firefox/firefox-bin' | 19:57 |
| user__ | do I need to put ./firefox-bin? | 19:58 |
| Toejam | no | 19:58 |
| user__ | so that should work yes | 19:58 |
| Toejam | I guess. I've not tried firefox since it' started depending on xul-runner | 19:58 |
| user__ | it's just loading and then disappearing | 19:58 |
| user__ | I have to use it for my language studying | 19:59 |
| Toejam | in the konsole try ./firefox-bin & | 19:59 |
| user__ | I prefer konq | 19:59 |
| user__ | yeah that worked before | 19:59 |
| user__ | loaded up instantly | 19:59 |
| user__ | I don't understand what my shortcut is doing :P | 19:59 |
| Toejam | Yeah. I dunno Firefox has been strange for me since Gutsy | 19:59 |
| Toejam | I either have to start it like 5 times or run it from Konsole | 20:00 |
| user__ | oh I'm retarded | 20:00 |
| user__ | LOL | 20:00 |
| user__ | Command!=work path haha | 20:00 |
| Toejam | user__: :-) | 20:00 |
| user__ | *sorry* | 20:00 |
| Toejam | Work path is without executable | 20:00 |
| user__ | ok works great now | 20:00 |
| Toejam | the command is with | 20:00 |
| user__ | yes I see | 20:00 |
| user__ | I just looked at diff shortcut | 20:01 |
| Toejam | well we will excuse your being retarded then :) | 20:01 |
| user__ | heh | 20:01 |
| user__ | thank you | 20:01 |
| Toejam | enjoy RC1 :) | 20:01 |
| user__ | another question just for shits and grins | 20:01 |
| user__ | do you know why xorg uses so much memory? | 20:01 |
| Toejam | Ubuntu should have a package soon and it should obsolete that | 20:02 |
| user__ | I mean, it's not affecting my usability, I was just curious | 20:02 |
| user__ | ah good | 20:02 |
| Toejam | user__: Memory is black magic in UNIX systems | 20:02 |
| user__ | I heard it's very efficient | 20:02 |
| duane | is there something i have do get broadcom bcm4310 wireless card working in kubuntu?? | 20:02 |
| Toejam | Oh yes very | 20:02 |
| Toejam | that's the problem :) | 20:02 |
| user__ | yes | 20:02 |
| user__ | I use same chip | 20:02 |
| user__ | ndiswrapper | 20:03 |
| Toejam | things share so much memoory and feed off each other so much you can't tell very well how much memory this onething is using | 20:03 |
| user__ | one sec, I know a great tutorial | 20:03 |
| duane | there a b43-fcutter that work or no user__ ? | 20:03 |
| Toejam | duane: user__ is getting you a walkthrough | 20:03 |
| user__ | its crappy compared to the windows driver | 20:03 |
| user__ | less range/speed | 20:03 |
| user__ | ndiswrapper=very efficient | 20:03 |
| DFlame | s'pretty easy to get ndiswrapper going if you read the instructions right | 20:04 |
| duane | there was a no fuss guide i used before that worked awesome | 20:04 |
| duane | cant find it now | 20:04 |
| Toejam | user__: So xorg has all this apps running on top of it. Which all add to it's memory count but some of it is explicitly X and some isn't. So .. yeah Xorg will always report a lot of memory used but it's more a marking stick than hard and fast | 20:04 |
| Toejam | as you open more apps the memory goes up but a lot of it is likely shared | 20:05 |
| Toejam | so you may have say 12 Megs (pulled this number out of nowhere) that is reported multiple time across multiple libraries and apps | 20:05 |
| user__ | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=760568 | 20:06 |
| user__ | Toejam: indeed... | 20:06 |
| user__ | that's the tut link btw, worked great for me | 20:06 |
| Toejam | We are getting better and better at giving a good judgement of the state of each thread but just because so much memory is reused it's really hard to say exactly | 20:06 |
| user__ | fascinating stuff | 20:07 |
| duane | there is a no fuss one I found before darn it | 20:07 |
| user__ | I'm using default kubuntu install, but even so it's very snappy | 20:07 |
| Toejam | In Windows a lot of apps ship their own libs even if it's redundant so you get a better handle of exactly how much memory they are using but you also have far less real memory available | 20:07 |
| Toejam | Thanks We try to make it a nice balance between clean and useful | 20:07 |
| user__ | well Vista and XP do it differently for sure | 20:07 |
| user__ | toejam=you part of the Kubuntu team? | 20:08 |
| Toejam | In spirit :-) | 20:08 |
| user__ | Kubuntu kicks ass | 20:08 |
| user__ | nuff said | 20:08 |
| user__ | Got my install up in running in 1hr 30 minutes and I'm bittergreen | 20:09 |
| user__ | up in running as in everything I could ever want/need :) | 20:09 |
| user__ | ndiswrapper-no prob because so many explanations how to do it | 20:09 |
| uga | user__: you forgot changing the wallpaper | 20:10 |
| uga | that'll be 10 mins more | 20:10 |
| user__ | yes my look completely modified | 20:10 |
| user__ | color scheme, kicker, wall | 20:10 |
| user__ | took me not long at all, I had a template going in :) | 20:11 |
| Toejam | ha ha :-) | 20:11 |
| Toejam | Hopefully in KDE4 you can just upload that template for use worldwide :) | 20:11 |
| uga | no please! | 20:11 |
| user__ | I'm really looking forward to using KDE4 full up | 20:11 |
| user__ | Hope 4.1 is a triumph | 20:11 |
| uga | I already hate there's so many useless wallpapers uploaded at kde-look | 20:11 |
| user__ | I'm already impressed, but I'm using 3.59 because I use Kubuntu for school and such | 20:12 |
| uga | some people look at their shitty snapshots and understand them as art... | 20:12 |
| Toejam | uga: that's what rating systems are for :) | 20:12 |
| uga | so they just upload them =) | 20:12 |
| user__ | I'm using Eos the KDE4 wallpaper at the moment | 20:12 |
| user__ | crystal modified with my color scheme | 20:12 |
| user__ | they make it so easy to play with the theme options | 20:12 |
| user__ | looks just so cool, and so intuitive to do it | 20:12 |
| uga | Toejam: unfortunately, antyhign close to Vista gets a 99% positive score | 20:13 |
| user__ | well, Vista looks pretty cool I think | 20:13 |
| user__ | but it's so damn overdone | 20:13 |
| uga | people are unimaginative and ratings aren't of much use | 20:13 |
| uga | user__: it looks black | 20:13 |
| user__ | I'm just tired of seeing the cookie cutter stuff | 20:13 |
| uga | black | 20:13 |
| uga | =) | 20:13 |
| yordan | salut | 20:13 |
| yordan | hy | 20:13 |
| user__ | how many times can you do the exact same theme? | 20:13 |
| uga | user__: I think there are like 100 of them in kde-look | 20:14 |
| user__ | heh | 20:14 |
| uga | and considering some users might not have uploaded it... | 20:14 |
| user__ | wait, wait! | 20:14 |
| uga | I calculate around 25421 different themesw of Vista clones exist for linux ;) | 20:14 |
| user__ | mine is like...1 pixel different around the borders!!!!11! | 20:14 |
| uga | lol | 20:14 |
| user__ | 1 pixel=complete difference dude! | 20:15 |
| user__ | /sarcasm | 20:15 |
| user__ | in any case, kubuntu is epic win | 20:15 |
| _StefanS_ | hey.. anyone have a good howto on compiz with kde3 ? (kubuntu 8.04) | 20:15 |
| uga | !compiz | 20:15 |
| ubottu | Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion | 20:15 |
| _StefanS_ | sweet thanks | 20:16 |
| user__ | Desktop Effects: Install :P | 20:16 |
| uga | user__: it's pretty broken by default | 20:16 |
| user__ | neutered that is | 20:16 |
| uga | it's got double shadows, some coming from kde3 and some other coming from compiz that go rendering wrong | 20:16 |
| uga | it really looks bad | 20:17 |
| user__ | yes | 20:17 |
| user__ | I'm just using kwin | 20:17 |
| user__ | and I have a blacklisted card (965gm) | 20:17 |
| _StefanS_ | the thing is that I've grown pretty tired with nvidia and 2d, want to make the desktop 3d to avoid the slowdown | 20:17 |
| user__ | but I'll figure it out sometime | 20:17 |
| user__ | kwin on kde4 is what I want :) | 20:17 |
| scifi | hi guys, get my new lappy soon, just wanted to know if its IGP has any issues with compatability on linux, its an Intel 950GMA | 20:17 |
| user__ | I don't think so | 20:18 |
| user__ | I think 915/950 is fine | 20:18 |
| _StefanS_ | scifi: very nice support, you shouldn't have any issues | 20:18 |
| user__ | 965/3100=problems | 20:18 |
| _StefanS_ | I will go with igp next time.. ati and nvidia should just go away (had both on my previous thinkpads ) | 20:19 |
| scifi | thankgod for that, it comes preloaded with vista, which apparently has issues with it, so if i experience problems i'll defo be slapping kubuntu on it | 20:19 |
| user__ | slap it on anyway ^_^ | 20:20 |

| user__ | ie company | 20:28 |

| Toejam | scifi: doubtful | 20:28 |
| user__ | ah those are nice | 20:28 |
| Toejam | Linuxisn't power friendly yet | 20:28 |
| Calvin | I read that I can install an encryptet file system with the ubuntu installer, but I did'nt find the option. | 20:28 |
| Toejam | with powertop this should get much better quickly though | 20:29 |
| scifi | Toejam: thats something i asked in here about the other day, and apparently there ARE power management options? | 20:29 |
| Toejam | Calvin: Were you using the dsktop CD? | 20:29 |
| Toejam | desktop | 20:29 |
| Calvin | yes | 20:29 |
| Toejam | scifi: Yes there are but apps aren't written to be power friendly | 20:29 |
| Toejam | Calvin: Highly doubt it would be there. Check the alternate CD | 20:30 |
| Toejam | that has many many more options of installing | 20:30 |
| Calvin | Maybe it is there, because I don't know where it should be. | 20:30 |
| Toejam | Desktop is the streamlined default install kind of with no questions asked | 20:30 |
| Toejam | Calvin: It won't be on the desktop CD get the alternate CD | 20:31 |
| Calvin | Where do I start looking for it? | 20:31 |
| Toejam | releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/8.04 | 20:31 |
| Toejam | http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/8.04 | 20:31 |
| scifi | Toejam: now im worried again :s | 20:31 |
| Toejam | Stright pull or torrent if you like | 20:32 |
| Toejam | scifi: It's not going to hold your laptop against the wall with a knife and take away it's powerlunch | 20:32 |
| Calvin | I downloaded this file file:///home/cbarcley/kubuntu-kde4-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 20:32 |
| Toejam | scifi: But there are quite a few scenarios that Windows will get better battery life | 20:32 |
| Calvin | I have to take the alternate CD? Ok THX | 20:32 |
| Toejam | Calvin: You want kubuntu-kde4-8.04-alternate-amd64.iso | 20:33 |
| Toejam | scifi: It's already gotten a lot better over the last year when Intel put out powertop | 20:33 |
| Toejam | KDE4 is built to extend battery life | 20:33 |
| Toejam | Databases like sqlite and wifi management apps are all now being looked at in terms of power over snappiness so expect it to get a lot better over the next two years | 20:34 |

| user__ | I'm kind of overpowered by its sexiness | 20:35 |
| scifi | Toejam: im only likely to be using the lappy for browsing, basic image editing, some video/music playing, so in this scenario, how does kubuntu handle battery life? | 20:36 |
| user__ | scifi: very well | 20:36 |
| user__ | at least on my laptop | 20:36 |
| user__ | there is adjustable power settings | 20:36 |
| scifi | i was told kde 4 is still quite unstable tho...altho will perhaps be better a few months | 20:36 |

| Toejam | scifi: 4.0 = very stable but very boring | 20:39 |
| user__ | my pleasure :) | 20:39 |
| Toejam | scifi: 4.1 should berak one of those truths :) | 20:40 |
| scifi | really? hmmm getting conflicting opinions on stability then | 20:40 |
| Toejam | scifi: Don't mistake stabilty for features | 20:40 |
| Toejam | 4.0 is stable but has a van plus a paddywagon of missing features | 20:40 |
| scifi | im not, but maybe other peeps are when telling me these thigns :P | 20:41 |
| Toejam | there are lots of regressions in comparison to KDE3.4.x | 20:41 |
| scifi | regression??!! :O | 20:41 |
| fdoving | it's not comparable to 3.5. | 20:41 |
| fdoving | it's different. | 20:41 |
| Toejam | scifi: Yes. Things that used to work now they don't | 20:41 |
| fdoving | not a new 3.5. | 20:41 |
| Toejam | exactly | 20:41 |
| scifi | hmmmm | 20:41 |
| Toejam | somethings that you are used to in KDE3 are very different | 20:42 |
| gwp | There is something wrong with my install where I get an error code at bootup | 20:42 |
| scifi | perhaps thats what they mean by "stability" then..... but what i meant was the wdm crashing etc | 20:42 |
| Toejam | scifi: If you wanna try it there is a live Cd if you are scared by all means wait till reviews of 4.1 come rolling in in two months | 20:42 |
| gwp | something about my hard drive sectors. | 20:42 |
| Toejam | what's the error code? | 20:42 |
| gwp | let me log in here in windows, and i'll reboot kubuntu | 20:43 |
| Toejam | scifi: I've had 4.0 as the only environment on my sole work computer since Feb. | 20:43 |

| scifi | Toejam: an no crashes ? does wifi work ok? | 20:43 |
| Toejam | user__: There is a keyboard shortcuts section for all the plugins in Compiz. Just look at them before you close out | 20:44 |
| NickPresta | pim, select "scan folders recursively to get children folders from a parent. | 20:44 |
| Toejam | scifi: Wifi sucks. Bad in 4.0 but I don't use wifi anywhere I go | 20:44 |

| gwp | With getting the 'Error 18:' at boot up, is it recommended that I reinstall? | 20:49 |
| gwp | and why would I getthat? | 20:49 |
| pim | gwp did you check your cd for errors? | 20:50 |
| Toejam | Calvin: yes | 20:50 |
| Toejam | pim: You should be able to just choose them | 20:51 |
| Calvin | gwp: hold on | 20:51 |
| Toejam | gwp: You need a /boot partition | 20:51 |
| scifi | Calvin: no im getting a lappy soon with vista preinstalled, but i am considering putting kubuntu on it, the only slight drawback of this MAY be reduced battery life. But surely kubuntu will be less resource-hungry and wud perhaps counter the loss of power from less efficient power-management | 20:51 |
| Toejam | your BIOS has a bug that can't reach the kernel file | 20:52 |
| Calvin | gwp: if you have a boot partition move it to the beginning of the drive | 20:52 |
| Toejam | gwp: If you read the GRUB Faq on the site they havethat in it as it's a very popular error | 20:52 |
| Toejam | scifi: Wouldn't worry about it vista's power consumption gets horrible the longer you use it from what I have seen | 20:53 |
| Calvin | scifi: I am on a desktop, so that does not matter for me | 20:53 |
| Toejam | Whereas Linux seems to be getting better :) | 20:53 |
| gwp | oh, Toejam; no I did not check for errors and Calvin; how do I move it to the beginning all: im checking the faq now | 20:53 |
| Toejam | Calvin: No worries. 4.0 is very much not for everyone | 20:53 |

| scifi | im so sad, im already looking on kde-look for new themes and i havent even got the lappy yet LOL | 20:55 |
| Toejam | then 4.5 will be the "When I was younger we didn't use KDE. No Way grandpa! how did you survive" release | 20:55 |

| Toejam | gwp: Gparted should be good enough for you | 20:56 |

| Calvin | sorry | 21:03 |
| Calvin | I am just wondering | 21:03 |
| Calvin | your boot partition is the first, as it should be | 21:04 |
| gwp | yeah, so I am curious too | 21:05 |
| Calvin | you told befor that your pc booted the last time | 21:05 |
| Calvin | if the error comes back try to update your bios | 21:05 |
| gwp | Just now when i rebooted, gonna reboot again to see what it does (i just didnt have to select generic) | 21:06 |

| gwp | The weird thing is it was supose to be KDE4 install | 21:10 |
| gwp | but its like 3.9 or something like that | 21:10 |
| Calvin | probably 3.99 | 21:11 |
| Calvin | is it 3.99? | 21:12 |
| gwp | let me check, i was rebooting again | 21:12 |
| gwp | well im loading kde 4 right now | 21:12 |
| Calvin | 3.99 is the "developer edition" | 21:12 |
| gwp | it loaded fine i just went to log out and selected it | 21:12 |
| rohan | on hardy systems having hardy-backport enabled, qt is updated to 4.4, wheres pyqt is still 4.3.3. would that cause a problem? will hardy-backports update pyqt to 4.4 | 21:13 |

| Toejam | nohelphere: sudo /ect/init.d/cups stop | 21:15 |
| gwp | I understand that but I dont know what to do about my mbr, maybe the size of that drive kubuntu has a problem with? maybe use a smaller drive and put the mbr and install on and then put /home on my larger drive? | 21:16 |
| Freddy2 | one friend is trying to create a software raid at install time (from the live cd), but can't find the option for creating "md devices", with the desktop version | 21:16 |

| HunterSThompson | yes...but no contractions a'tall... | 21:35 |
| Toejam | gwp: You have no Windows partition ? | 21:35 |
| HunterSThompson | that didn't work | 21:35 |
| === antoniot is now known as pazuzux | ||
| gwp | Toejam: now the weird thing is when i hit enter over the #1 primary to see the options, bootable flag is off | 21:35 |
| gwp | Toejam: no | 21:35 |
| Toejam | gwp: Ok Well I assume you don't want one then :) | 21:35 |
| gwp | Toejam: nosir | 21:36 |
| Toejam | Well If I may be so bold as to suggest a /home parition ? | 21:36 |
| gwp | Toejam: yeah i wondered why the auto setup didnt do that, could you give me an example of a good partition system with a 160 gig hard drive, id set my partitions up based on that | 21:36 |
| HunterSThompson | no response in #ubuntu-mythtv either | 21:37 |
| Toejam | Well if you are having a issue on boot up I would make ~1GB /boot first | 21:37 |
| Toejam | then a ~10 GB / | 21:37 |
| Toejam | You know your usage of the computer and the type of applications you will install so do that as to your liking | 21:38 |
| Toejam | I have a 7GB / I've never filled | 21:38 |
| Toejam | gwp: 64 Bit or 32 bit install ? | 21:38 |
| gwp | Toejam: 64 bit | 21:39 |
| Toejam | ah good how much RAM? | 21:39 |
| gwp | THe /boot would be primary correct? and 4 gigs | 21:39 |
| Toejam | please include foreseeable expansions :) | 21:39 |
| gwp | Toejam | 21:39 |
| Toejam | Sure that's a good deal more than plenty | 21:39 |
| gwp | Well I am going to expand to 16gigs soon | 21:40 |
| Toejam | OK A 6 Gig swap isn't ridiculous then | 21:40 |
| gwp | For ram, 4 gigs for ram and 16 soon if thats what you meant | 21:40 |
| Toejam | right | 21:40 |
| Toejam | You had 6 gigs for swap which is normally really stupid | 21:41 |
| Toejam | If you are going to be filling 16 Gigs of RAM then that 6 may come in useful | 21:41 |
| Toejam | assuming you are doing pretty heavy lifting | 21:41 |
| gwp | For my main / how big would you suggest? I plan on using this pc asmy primary & gaming machine | 21:41 |
| HunterSThompson | wow...16G...I have two...one of which is never used | 21:41 |
| Toejam | gwp: Dunno. You know better than I do | 21:42 |
| gwp | Its rediculous i know, the board will hold 32 gigs, i just wanted to see what 16 gigs did :) | 21:42 |
| Toejam | If you install a lot of self contained apps (games would count) then more is good | 21:42 |
| gwp | Would the / be primary or logical? | 21:42 |
| HunterSThompson | primary I'm sure | 21:42 |
| Toejam | if you have a lot of servers that generate data then much more | 21:42 |
| Toejam | gwp: Doesn't matter but / is safe | 21:43 |

| gwp | Wonder why kubuntu auto creat partitions sucks. it initially made 2 partitions / and swap and the first install i had was like that and probably causing the error 18 message | 21:48 |
| Toejam | gwp: Works for most people | 21:49 |
| gwp | Toejam: well I hope that by creating the /boot it will fix the issues | 21:49 |

| gwp | oh damn i set /home primary | 21:50 |
| gwp | thatbad? | 21:50 |
| Toejam | nope | 21:50 |
| Toejam | logical is nicer is all | 21:50 |
| gwp | why is it nicer? | 21:51 |
| Toejam | more flexible to play with later | 21:51 |
| gwp | o | 21:51 |
| gwp | I have a couple more hard drives I need to install later, would I need to do a reinstall when I do? | 21:52 |
| gwp | The reason they arent in are due to my laziness factor | 21:52 |
| Toejam | what do you mean install? | 21:52 |
| gwp | Toejam: slide them into the pc and plug them in | 21:52 |
| Toejam | you mean you want an OS on them as well? | 21:53 |

| gwp | lol, this a worse one? | 22:42 |
| Toejam | gwp: Can you login? | 22:42 |
| gwp | At initial bootup, it says that and then press any key to continue, then it asks if i want to load 8.04 kernal 2.6.24-16-generic or generic recovery mode | 22:42 |
| gwp | yeah i can load into xwin | 22:43 |
| Toejam | ok | 22:43 |

| rogue_trader | i just removed all widgets from the panel. now i do not see any widgets but I do not see any programs either | 22:45 |
| gwp | how do i read my /etc/fstab | 22:45 |
| Toejam | 2 =major version 6 = minor version 24 = release version 16 = ubuntu changes version | 22:45 |
| rogue_trader | does anyone know where the configuration of the panel is stored? | 22:46 |
| TeslaTony | rogue_trader: Right click on the panel, select "add widgets" and add whatever widgets you want in the order you want them arranged | 22:46 |
| Toejam | ~/.kde4 | 22:46 |
| Toejam | rogue_trader: Help in #kubuntu-kde4 | 22:46 |
| rogue_trader | TeslaTony, yes that would work but my problem is that I am not shown the running programs | 22:47 |
| rogue_trader | the widgets moved right next tot the start button | 22:47 |

| o0Chris0o | hey guys, I tried to play a game in wine, and it changed my video settings, now I am at 640x480 how do I change back to 1280x1024, I tried going to system settings and changing it that way, but that didn't work :( | 22:55 |
| Toejam | gwp: yeah | 22:55 |
| Toejam | you did something funky | 22:55 |
| gwp | WHATS THAT? | 22:55 |
| gwp | oops damnlaptop | 22:55 |
| gwp | and these small keys, sorry for caps | 22:55 |
| towely | check your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to make sure you have the proper mod lines for your monitor in there | 22:55 |
| o0Chris0o | k | 22:56 |
| towely | never heard of wine messing things like that though.. | 22:56 |
| gwp | This sucks, im looking at a black screen right now because I selected logout, wonder if its going to go to the login screen | 22:56 |
| o0Chris0o | yeah | 22:56 |
| jco | hi, does someone know the difference between the nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-envy packages? From the description they seem the same... | 22:56 |
| o0Chris0o | I dunno | 22:56 |
| towely | so anyone have any idea how I can get my system to automount my usb devices again? | 22:57 |
| towely | the envy package would be for the envy client. I heard envy doesnt even work in hardy... what version are you running? | 22:57 |
| jco | towely: 8.04... but what is envy then? | 22:58 |
| towely | forget envy.... either download and install nVidias drivers or use the restricted driver manager to install your video drivers... | 22:58 |
| towely | envy was a way to install your vid drivers in previous versions of k/ubuntu | 22:59 |
| jco | towely: I'm ok, I just saw in aptitude this new package, I was curious... | 22:59 |
| towely | I would try the distro specific drivers installed by the RDM before using nVidia's.. nVidia's drivers hosed my system... the RDM did not | 22:59 |
| arturzyk | Goodbye everyone;) | 23:00 |
| TeslaTony | Is there a way on the command line to get a full (ish, anyways) set of system specs? HD capacity, RAM, CPU brand and speed... | 23:00 |
| jco | towely: I'm indeed using the Ubuntu ones, too easy to get them working to bother IMHO | 23:00 |
| Toejam | TeslaTony: sudo lshw | 23:00 |
| Toejam | you can dump iit to a HTML page as well | 23:01 |

| o0Chris0o | hey towely check this out, I'm not sure what to change http://pastebin.com/f2110c211 | 23:01 |
| TeslaTony | Toejam: Perfect. Thanks | 23:02 |
| gwp | lol | 23:02 |
| jco | towely: I have the 3d stuff on the gnome session, just to impress friends, I use a "normal" kde for daily work | 23:02 |
| towely | the only mod line you have in there under the "monitor" section is for 640x480. Try adding like lines for your higher resolution | 23:02 |
| towely | I use compiz all the time... love the cube and super-e.... I dont have any of the other "candy" turned on but wobbly windows | 23:03 |
| o0Chris0o | well I can change it to 1280x1024, but not sure how to go abouts to change the rest | 23:03 |
| jco | towely: I just login on gnome when poeple tells me about the spectacular 3D effects of Vista... | 23:04 |
| towely | modeline "1280x1024@60" 25.2 640 656 752 800 480 490 492 525 -vsync -hsync <-- try that. I am no expert here.... not a CRT monitor? | 23:04 |
| o0Chris0o | no its not | 23:05 |
| jco | towely: I have a ThinkPad, Ubuntu detected my screen by itself and ran at 1920x1200 out of the box | 23:05 |
| towely | ok you shouldnt fry anything then... try changing the modline to what ever res you want that your lcd supports and restarting X | 23:05 |
| towely | MAKE SURE you back up the xorg.conf file before making changes | 23:06 |
| towely | ok so anyone willing to take a stab at MY issue? ROFL | 23:06 |
| jparishy_ | Shouldn't I have the GL headers in kubuntu? I don't have them | 23:07 |
| jco | towely: what issue? | 23:07 |
| towely | Question... cant automount anything as user... ipod, usb harddrive...nothing... have to terminal sudo it. Even though there are entries in my fstab with the user prefix. Any suggestions or points in the right direction? | 23:08 |
| towely | if you dont then you should be able to DL and install them | 23:08 |
| jco | towely: doesn't Ubuntu use hal? did you try halmount? | 23:08 |
| towely | good point... brb.... see im a total noob except on the stuff ive done before... lol | 23:09 |
| towely | I'll make sure hal is running | 23:09 |
| jco | towely: I'm very new to Ubuntu, so I may be wrong, but I have the feeling that almost all major distros use hal nowadays | 23:10 |
| towely | halmount is not a usable command on my system... I did a /etc/init.d/hal restart and it seemed to restart/start without issues but nothing has changed with my issue... | 23:13 |
| towely | doing a hal man | 23:13 |

| jco | towely: I see now that hald is there, but there's no halmount command | 23:14 |
| jco | towely: oh... on another distro halmount is a link to halmount.py | 23:15 |
| towely | I deffinatly see being able to have full access to mount as a user could be a security issue but I can't even write to my ipod with gtkpod because it is mounted as root. I suppose I could open gtkpod as root but I dont want to have to do that | 23:16 |
| jco | towely: but have you tried to add to the panel the "Storage Media" (or something like that) applet which provides the "Mount" option when a device appears? | 23:16 |
| towely | looking | 23:16 |
| Toejam | towely: Try setting a umask? | 23:17 |
| jco | towely: oh, halmount should be provided by the package ivman (sudo apt-get install ivman) | 23:17 |
| Toejam | kk I'm out for an hour or two | 23:17 |
| towely | in storage device manager I can add options for the pod.. wonder if I put user in there if it will solve the issue | 23:18 |

When I use the homedir from the fresh install, the problem is gone. I guess my issue is that some configuration from my previous installation is messed up, but I don't know which. Any ideas? | 23:19 |
| Toejam | busfahrer: mv your ~/.kde/share/apps/konsole dir | 23:21 |
