[00:04] bomber: what is the number of your partition where grub is installed ? [00:04] *grub-install [00:05] hey there, quick question : the default installation of kubuntu uses 3.5 or 4.0 of kde... then, how can one switch from one to the other? [00:05] cellfish: you can have both installed [00:05] j978: no, that's when you are running the right partition, not in his case [00:05] j978: does it give you a choice at the very beginning? [00:05] i think you can choose at kdm? [00:06] from the lists of desktops installed you can login into any of them [00:06] #kubuntu es [00:06] #kubuntu-es [00:07] ah good .. i'm sorry, i'm still a little new to linux even though i've been playing with linux since like 1994 with slackware lol [00:07] it has gotten way easier :) [00:07] i'm also wondering about blu-ray and hd-dvd. i know both are drm-friendly and technically against linux philosophy but is there any progress (that does not require ripping) to make eiother of the formats playable by default in linux? [00:07] my grub is on hd0,1 [00:07] bomber: you have to open a grub shell, and then type the following 3 commands [00:08] j978: yeah, i had a blast with ubuntu 8.04. i was practically in tears going back to windows. i was ONLY missing the blu-ray / hd-dvd playability. [00:08] uhm i have no idea about bluray... my computer is almost from 1994 :P [00:08] device (hd0) /dev/sda (or /dev/hda , depending on your system) [00:08] root (hd0,1) [00:08] j978: blessed be linux for running on that 5$ puter of yours :) [00:09] setup (hd0) [00:09] yup yup :P [00:09] and there you are :-) [00:09] ok lemme try [00:11] im getting file not found on device (hd0) /dev/hda === sea is now known as sea4ever [00:11] bomber: /dev/sda [00:11] that seems to work [00:11] (due to libata transition that started in edgy) [00:12] well it says succeeded.... but it did before too... lemme reboot... thanks [00:13] I have an MP3 player with a few protected files and I have no idea what media player for Kubuntu supports DRM [00:14] none, really. [00:16] at least my Zen is UMS [00:17] i forget the nick of the person why helped but i love you man [00:18] i been wrestling this for at least 5 hours [00:18] none of the online instructions tell it like that [00:19] like what? [00:19] * Dr_willis missed the whole problem. :P [00:19] the device line is the one absent from online instructions [00:19] getting grub back on a sata drive [00:20] grub is the kind of tool - it pays to go to the grub homepage. and read its manual/docs :) [00:20] It can do some amazing things [00:20] bomber: you're welcome ;-) [00:20] * bomber_ dcc sends a case of beer to adoc [00:21] bomber: hehe, thanks [00:21] i definitely wrote that down [00:22] bomber: that's also what I did the last time I crashed my grub, and that's why I was able to explain you so easily [00:23] i was almost ready to surrender and reinstall kubuntu [00:24] it's probably already been asked a ton, but how do you enable the cube effect with kwin4? [00:27] i didemnt think kde4 had the cube [00:31] i think it's a Compiz-only effect, something similar in kwin4 is the Cover Switch effect [00:34] hi all. what was that command for searching, which package a certain file is in? [00:35] v6lur: If you have the package installed, you can use dpkg -S /path/to/file [00:35] v6lur: install the package "apt-file", and then "apt-file search PATERN" [00:35] ah, thanks a lot [00:37] v6lur: apt-file works even if the package is not installed, it just need to be in one of the repositories [00:39] im not sure anyone help with this one but I tried to run nortons partition magic on my system thinking i could ghost the windows install to make it easier next time i mess it up and need to reinstall it [00:40] and it said it was fixing the partition table for my usb terrabyte drive and it messed it up instead [00:40] linux still reads it properly but windows thinks it has no free space now and its got like 390 gigs left [00:41] i only have 1/2 of it partitioned [00:41] so the other 1/2 is still unudsed [00:41] unused [00:42] what app can i use to sniff dns traffic? [00:42] tcpdump [00:43] basically changed the ending an beginning cylinders so its not reading correctly [00:43] also, ethereal/wireshark, etc. [00:44] I was wondering if anyone here can help me with the Beryl thing [00:44] wasn't there an option to apt-get to allow --reinstall of older packages? can't find it in the manpage [00:44] I managed to install it and now I have 2 windows, when I change it for 6 lets say, to have a cube, its stuck on 2 [00:44] i can change it to any number but its always stuck on 2 [00:45] it flips but its not a cube [00:45] rodolinux, just uninstall it [00:46] ? [00:47] rodolinux: are you trying to setup compiz-fusion on kde3? [00:47] rodolinux: the number of desktop you set for kde has nothing to do with the number of desktop in beryl [00:47] oh really?

[05:37] ahmos: yes its a frontend to iptables iirc [05:37] ok ;) u r so kind [05:37] keplenk: goto ctrl+alt+f2 and login and then cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see the problem [05:37] ahmos: coolio [05:37] !u | ahmos [05:37] ahmos: Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, or a government officier, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun. If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you". The same goes for "are", "why", "because", "anyone", and so on.. [05:39] ok you are so kind :D [05:41] @flaccid: cat says that Fatal server error: no screens found then a bunch of other information. I'm just going to restore my backedup xorg.conf [05:42] keplenk: you need to read above that to see why it has no screens found. if you do that we can fix up the problem [05:43] restoring to your old xorg.conf is not going to fix this EDID problem. at all... [05:43] ahhh ok. Is there a way to save that information in a text file? How can I do that? [05:44] keplenk: its already in a text file :) [05:45] hahaha. OMG .. where can I get that? lol [05:45] keplenk: its /var/log/Xorg.0.log [05:46] keplenk: if you have the universe repos enabled you could do this: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit -i /var/log/Xorg.0.log [05:46] alright. Let me just grab that. Hold on please. [05:46] np keplenk. if we just put some effort in here we could come out winners [05:46] i've also been known to do typos.. [05:50] hey all [05:50] !hi [05:50] Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! [05:56] I've got a question about KDE4 integration on Kubuntu. [05:56] !kde4 | scott_ [05:56] scott_: KDE 4.0.5 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. Packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.5.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 [05:57] thank you, I've been thinking of installing alongside my 3.5, but I was wondering, when 4.1 is finalized, will kubuntu automatically update to it [05:58] scott_: wrong channel to ask see above [05:59] oh thanks you can tell I'm a newb [06:00] np [06:03] hey flaccid, sorry for the delay. Here is my Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/d691629a5 [06:03] thanks [06:05] keplenk: do you know how to use a cli text editor like pico or joe? [06:06] I'm sorry but I don't. If it is easy. I can learn it right away === JanMalte_ is now known as JanMalte [06:09] keplenk: run this sudo pico /etc/X11/xorg.conf [06:10] ok [06:10] then goto the bottom of the file with the arrows and put a blank line at the bottom. close and save by using ctrl+x. once that is done run sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart . if it fails to again. then edit it again and add an EndSection to the bottom of the file [06:23] hi flaccid, what if there is already an exisiting blank line in the bottom? SHould I add another blank line? Also, there is an "EndSection" in the bottom. SHould i put EndSection, then a blank line, then Endsection again? I just realized that pico is like nano :) [06:24] keplenk: yeah pico is from nano. if thats the case add another endsection and just keep 1 blank line at the bottom. i've had this before and i think it must be a bug.. [06:25] ahh alright. Let me try it. I'll let you know :) Hope this works. I have to go to work soon :( But its ok, I can still come back [06:25] but once the config file can be parsed you have a good chance of the xorg.conf being right and if not we can look at the error/warning if there is one [06:25] cool [06:34] hey flaccid. It still didn't work. I have to go to work now. THanks for your great help! I really apprciate it a lot. I hope you'll still be here later. I got a feeling, were almost there. :) Thanks again [06:34] keplenk: yeah i should be here then cya then [06:34] you could quickly check log now :p [06:35] :) yeah .. before I go, ill do that .. ill actually save the log file for later [06:35] :) [06:35] bye [06:37] Okay, I have yet to have someone help with me setting up accessing my my ubuntu box from windows vista. [06:37] bob3213243_: i did help you already. whats the problem? [06:37] [12:42] bob3213243_: the secure way is to install openssh-server on the ubuntu box and use WinSCP in windows. all you do is allow/forward port 22 from your router/firewall to the ubuntu box [06:39] I am trying to find a super clean and simple way to connect to that computer. I was able to connect with putty and VNC viewer without an issue but it's too complicated to be usable for the people I am setting it up for. [06:41] bob3213243_: the above is a simple way. if you have the ssh server set up (which requires 1 command, but looks like you have done it already). WinSCP is extremely easy. [06:42] okay let me give that a shot. the PuTTy/vnc work around is pretty messy. [06:43] yeah this is the right way to do it securely over the internet without the need for using smb/samba over VPN..
