[00:01] Chrysalis: I've a better idea ... I wrote a script for enabling/disabling flash ... I'll just use that if I think I'm going somewhere that will invoke browser death [00:01] well, you can always just kill it, thats what i was doing till i got tired of it [00:02] once you kill it everthing goes back to normal [00:02] the browser just .... hangs. [00:02] killing the browser does work ... .but I'm hoping for a more optimal solution ... disabling flash is the best one I've decided to try so far, and the script makes it easier/faster than uninstalling/reinstalling flashplugin-nonfree package [00:03] more stable too to boot [00:03] i meant killing the nsplugingwrapper, worked for me [00:03] Hey, it also gets rid of 50% of ads, also another nice improvement [00:04] hmm, that will work? I suppose I could try that later === rx_t is now known as rx === root is now known as Guest9946 [00:35] hola [00:36] == [00:36] =) [00:37] Hmm. How far back would I have to disable the NIC card to run a linux system on a network without the network seeing it? [00:38] jojo, this is an english chat, XD, I was talkin spanish XD [00:43] Hi, everybody! i just switched from Windows XP, to Kubuntu 8.04. however upon installing and setting up my system, i came to reaize that configuring Wine so that i can run World of Warcraft is a bit beyond me, even after ive looked through the winehq website as well as the wowwiki page that talks about how to configure wine to run WoW,. i was wondering if there are any users out there that may be able to help me set up WoW to run on my [00:43] machine or at least help me to figure out exactly what i need to do and in what order. [00:46] buckethead: pull the plug would be safest I guess :) [00:49] kozz: Safest yes, Also easiest to forget. I'm going to try to come up with a way to code it in with a shortcut to enable it if its "safe". [00:52] Not sure if 'ifconfig eth0 down' will secure it enough. [01:00] Hello all [01:00] hi [01:02] Does anyone know why my game of freecell dumps when I try to use it. [01:04] if you Like Solitare type games. PySol is a Must get. :) [01:05] No idea why freecell would dump. [01:09] kde4 + kpatience = win [01:09] i will stick with PySol. :) for now. [01:15] Dr_willis: have you at least tried kde4's solitaire? ... it's kpat-kde4 if you ever feel like trying it :) [01:15] dwidmann: kpatience is required to kcope with all of the kbugs in kde4 [01:16] Indeed it is, in fact, kdegames-kde4 is 67%of the reason I have kde4 installed :) [01:16] whoosh [01:18] I like the 500+ variations of solitare in pysol. and of course the wife DEMANDS i install it on every machine in the house, windows, or linux. :) I wonder if they got a port to the gp2x yet.. that will keep her happy in the car.

[01:37] I have my monitor connected to a KVM switch and can't change the resolution to anything higher than 800x600 [01:37] Rosegarden is telling me it needs the JACK server - exactly what package am I looking for? [01:37] what's the problem now RaceDrv709 [01:37] screen resolution crap [01:38] can't change it to anything higher than 800x600\ [01:38] RaceDrv709: Did it work at higher resolution without the kvm? [01:38] RaceDrv709, it's probably not detecting it properly though the KVM [01:39] * RaceDrv709 goes under desk to connect monitor to his computer and bumps his head for the umpteenth time [01:40] Walzmyn: My thinking also. ATI are especially bad for this [01:40] anyone here got multiscreen with nv driver working? [01:41] dedi_, you mean, NOT the propritary driver? [01:41] dedi_, I normally install nvidia drivers, use the nvidia-xsettings tool to enable twinview, restart X server, and i might have to run nvidia-settings to tweak the config/res a bit [01:41] Im not sure if the normal 'nv' drivers can even do this. :) [01:41] Same here. Works just about as good as winders. [01:41] Dr_willis: but with nvidia driver? [01:42] well i think they sort of can.. but with issues. :) on some of my box's [01:42] like they get the res wrong, and the primary display wrong, and they just cloned the display [01:42] its so terribly slow with nvidia drivers on kde4 [01:42] so, what exactly am I looking for when rosegarden calls for the JACK server?

[01:45] Dr_willis, there's 3 dozen packages that come up. They're all to do with this one, i just wasn't sure which was the primary package [01:46] solved [01:46] I think the 'JACK' stuff is for serious sound editing. :) somthing ive never gotten into.

[17:39] OK yeah I read about doing the 32-bit firefox and plugins things. [17:39] Does anyone know about the quality of these open-source alternatives? [17:40] Oh, nevermind. The swap is on. :) [17:45] <_CrashMaster_> jinzougen: Anything in the repo's can generally be considered stable. The quality is really up for you to decide, based on the packages relevance to what you're trying to accomplish [17:45] ok I'll check them out. Do they integrate into firefox automatically or will I have to set it up somehow? [17:46] aparently swf-player does [17:46] <_CrashMaster_> Firefox will usually pickup and install a plugin automatically.

It finishes the partitioning, formatting and starts installing files way to quick for it to have random filled the drive. It never reports that it is going to random fill the drive, and I'm certain that it doesn't. I have a 40 [21:15] took when installing Debian Etch with encrypted LVM. Is this a bug, an oversight or by design? [21:16] I think part of your comment/question.. and I got no idea on if its by design, or oversight. [21:16] part of the Q. got lost. Heh.. Im typing too fast. [21:17] Sorry. I'll try again.When installing Kubuntu 8.04.1 from the alternate install cd on i386 and using the Guided "encrypted LVM" option, I noticed that during the process, it doesn't seem to random fill the hard drive like Debian Etch does. It finishes the partitioning, formatting and starts installing files way to quick for it to have random filled the drive. It never reports that it is going to random fill the drive, and I'm certain that i [21:17] long the random fill took when installing Debian Etch with encrypted LVM. Is this a bug, an oversight or by design? [21:19] The forums may have some deeper discussion of the topic. at least you may have better luck with the forums then here. [21:21] I would guess its by design. [21:23] I found this page regarding the process: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/i386/module-details.html and it states "When using encrypted LVM, the installer will also automatically erase the disk by writing random data to it. This further improves security (as it makes it impossible to tell which parts of the disk are in use and also makes sure that any traces of previous installations are erased), but may take some time depe [21:23] its *supposed" to be doing it, but it isn't as far as I can tell. [21:24] No idea, on how to prove it one way or another. :) other then watching the isntall processes from a different console as it installs. I guess. [21:27] In alternate you can view what it's doing on console4 [21:27] Alternate/server [21:28] Even just doing a zero-fill of the drive takes much longer than the installer is taking to begin installing the system packages, so I certain that the installer isn't writing the whole drive with random bits, which would take at least as long to do as writing zeros to it. [21:30] Anyone here tried a guided encrypted lvm install with kubuntu? [21:32] Hmm.. if writing random bits.. I wonder if it wold really need to randomize every bit.. what it it just did every other bit... :) [21:32] Then again. this is all for the truely security addict. [21:35] hello, I have a problem, somehow my KDE is not starting KWin [21:35] how I get KWin to start on each login of every user into KDE?? [21:35] anyone using crossover for linux ? [21:36] in kubuntu kde, i can change the system settings, and the settings manager remembers them, but they are not applied... does anybody know why? [21:37] did you check you session settings on logon screen ? [21:37] go to sessions and select start from last session [21:37] nope, didn't check that yet... i'll do that immediately [21:38] :) [21:38] how I set a variable globally on each start [21:38] like KDEWM? [21:38] but one other thing... i noticed that it says (in red) "Attention! Read help!" when i go to Convenience tab in Login Manager... [21:38] what do you mean ? [21:39] what does it say ? [21:39] by the way timo_ you need to restart x to go to sessions :) [21:39] i know :) [21:39] :)) [21:39] somthing is weird if 'kde' session from the KDM login is not running kwin, or compiz. ugh.. You dident install and remove compiz by any chance did you? [21:39] but it seems like a warning, but when i press the Help button, nothing happens :( [21:39] weird [21:39] did you google it ? [21:40] timo_, its just warning you about setting up auto-login s4essiion [21:40] i did google it, i found someone having exactly the same problem here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=112056 [21:41] ok, thanks doc [21:41] i'll go restart x now.. be right back :) [21:42] quick - lets all change nicks! [21:42] :) [21:43] were does the KDEWM var gets set at boot? [21:43] there is a but when you uninstall compiz on kubuntu 8 [21:43] it will let KDEWM set to compiz so you dont have window manager on start up [21:43] and no window borders [21:43] Uninstalling compiz - used to goof things up. I had to fix that once.. after that i learned to not remove compiz. :) [21:44] if you removed compiz, you may need to look in to the 'alternatives' feature of ubuntu. [21:45] this is the culprit script [21:45] file /etc/X11/Xsession.d/25enable-compiz [21:45] should be removed but is not [21:45] does a export KDEWM="/usr/bin/compiz" [21:45] there ya go. [21:45] so if you don't have compiz you get no borders [21:45] someone fill a bug fix [21:45] I must reboot, thanks everybody [21:46] if [ -e $HOME/.kde/share/config/compizasWM ] ; then [21:46] is whats in my script. :) [21:46] so by removing that .kde/share/config/compizasWM - in theory it would default to kwin. i think. [21:52] which automake version does I have to install? [21:52] to work with kdevelop? [21:52] 1.9? [21:52] there are 5 versions available [21:55] Heh, glad I caught that conversation. I was trying to figure out why Compiz was loaded when I started KDE4 [21:56] :) [21:56] i feel compiz has caused more problems.. then its worth.. Heh :P === nicholas is now known as sanassar [21:57] Hey [21:57] Anyone know how to make keyboard shorcuts [21:57] !shortcuts [21:57] keyboard shortcuts can be set in K -> System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse.

[22:06] hi [22:06] For some reason the volume icon has disappeared from my system tray. It's been gone for a few days now, rebooting does not bring it back. Which command opens it? [22:06] Ok, i am having no end of problems with my NTFS drive [22:07] I have ntfs-3g and it has solved nothing [22:09] *clears throat* should I try #ubuntu? [22:09] probably [22:09] MachinTrucChose: kmix [22:10] thank you, genii [22:10] MachinTrucChose: Yer welcome [22:14] hi .. my fresh kubuntu install is having issues with pulse audio. I am moving from ubuntu .. under ubuntu there is no problem and things work like a dream since Edgy [22:15] Pulse audio works great under ubuntu Hardy.. is this a kde setting thing or is there an known issue with kubuntu install? [22:16] this problem are in mandriva kubuntu SUSe and other distr [22:18] not-alone: can you point me to a work-around or a solution? I have sound, can I use alsamixer and disable pulse audio? [22:18] we must configure pulse audio o use another audio server [22:18] you have sound but... [22:19] what? [22:19] Hondo_Kitsune, you may want to state the whole ntfs problem, to the whole channel. [22:19] BSG75: I think kubuntu hardy still installs alsa by default [22:19] I don't have pulse audio installed [22:20] sound works great [22:20] Pulse audio uses alsa i thought. Its an addational layer. [22:20] dorins: yeah .. that's how I have sound. But I it cuts off and apps like mplayer gives error saying it cannot connect to Pulse audio [22:20] BSG75, tell mplayer to use alsa, not pulseaudio. is what i normally do [22:20] QUnprivileged user cannot mount NTFS block using the external FUSE. Either mount as root or rebuild ntfs-3g with integrated FUSE and setuid root. [22:20] makes mplayer start up a lot faster also. [22:20] Dr_willis: will do [22:20] I followed the instructions on the site and they did not fix it [22:21] Hondo_Kitsune, other then trying the 'ntfs-config' tool, to check/enable it - not sure. I dont have any external ntfs drives to test. [22:21] all my external USB drives are ext3 :) [22:21] both are enabled [22:22] it is whinging about FUSE [22:22] and if i mount it as root, i then can't write to it as "fox" [22:22] also can one of you please tell me a) how I can control my volume using my laptop volume button which I was able to do in ubuntu b) how I can turn of click on my touchpad of my laptop.. in ubuntu you go under mouse and it shows a tab with touchpad and you turn click off.. is there something similar in kde? [22:24] Hondo_Kitsune, perhaps the user is not in the proper groups. [22:24] I checked [22:24] "fox" is [22:25] other then seeing if the user can mount manually with the ntfs-3g command. Not sure where to troubleshoot next. [22:26] what is the NTFS-3g command. [22:26] my ntfs-3g command is not SUID. [22:26] how is it implimented? [22:26] Its the command thats doing all the real work. [22:27] ntfs-3g --help gives ussage, and examples [22:27] BSG75: for a) : open system settings, and select Keyboard & Mouse-> Keyboard Shortcuts, select component KMix and set the shortcut keys you want [22:27] Example: ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/win [22:27] BSG75: that's for kde4, should be something simmilar for kde 3 [22:28] BSG75: don't know about b) [22:28] dorins: thank you. I haven't used kde in a LONNG time .. I am trying it again because my friend is all raving about it .. it's a bit of a change :) [22:29] definitely like 4.1 ..

[22:50] ive been using jwm + rox as my main desktop/filemanager [22:52] tdela: I have not found any issue other than the pulse audio not working .. nothing critical. honestly I have no idea what "support until oct 09" means ... I would think it would mean for paid customer support .. but I could be totally talking through my rear end [22:52] oh [22:53] does all 8.04 come with kde4? [22:53] BSG75: thanks btw. :) [22:53] tdela: no .. you can get ubuntu .. which is gnome [22:53] tdela: there is also one for xfce [22:53] i would rather kde4. [22:53] but all kubuntu's have kde4? or just kde4 remix version? [22:57] hey so I replaced kwin but now my compiz doesn't seem to work? [22:57] my compiz just installed the engine but I can find anywhere to turn on the effects LOL [22:58] <_2> !compiz | lol [22:58] lol: Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness from KMenu -> System -> Desktop Effects - further help in #compiz-fusion [22:59] hmm I don't have a KMenu->system? [23:00] <_2> lsb_release -r [23:00] do other people here run kde4? [23:00] <_2> !kde4 | di48lo no this is not the kde4 channel [23:00] _2: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [23:00] <_2> !kde4 | di48lo no this "is" not the kde4 channel [23:01] di48lo no this "is" not the kde4 channel: 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 [23:01] I need help with openoffice [23:02] RAWR I got it working [23:03] now all I need to install is the compiz setting manager I think .. holly his noodly appendages, I am getting excited over kde .. I must have a feaver :) [23:05] <_2> ubottu ubottu us obviously not intelligent! [23:05] _2: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [23:05] <_2> ubottu ubottu is obviously not intelligent! [23:05] <_2> oops. [23:05] lol [23:06] _2: Please don't do that. [23:07] <_2> Pici why doesn't the bot have any way to "NOT" key on the word 'is' without >>> _2: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [23:08] _2: Because you are addressing the bot, it doesnt know any better. [23:08] <_2> is is a very useful english word. wouldn't something else have been more prudent than "is" ? [23:09] <_2> set maybe [23:11] <_2> Pici or if only the pipe would cause ubottu to stop parsing commands and count the remainder of a line as comment [23:20] hai bro, how to browsing use konqueror? cos my konqueror not function. but if use firefox is working [23:31] !konqueror [23:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about konqueror [23:36] compiz fusion works beautifully with kde4 .. you hardly have to do anything other than to install it .. but the thing is that you have to reboot in order for them to show up for some reason. At least for now [23:36] err that's 4.1 I am using. [23:37] im trying to get amarok to comile from svn, the wiki says i should reinstall the strigi library, anyone know what package that would fall under? [23:37] noone on the amarok channel seems to know? [23:38] my server has kde as default X, but it loads gnome when remote connecting a new X session (from a gnome client). any ideas? [23:39] dedi: what session is default under your remote connection settings? [23:39] BSG75: same as local [23:41] haha === xxx is now known as Guest49198 [23:43] I have a Dell Inspiron 530 I have been wanting to try Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Kubuntu on, however when I put in the Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Kubuntu/etc disks, and try to boot, I end up in BusyBox and *Ubuntu will NOT fully boot past the scrolling logo and the scrolling bar. One person on the forums asked that I try setting my SATA from IDE to RAID, I don't see how that could help? [23:43] dedi_: Maybe http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=29126
