engineerclick reboot?00:04
mefisto__if it reboots, it's not hibernating. I don't understand00:04
_Angelus_click reboot? :/00:04
Denisedanny baby one00:05
Deniseengineer00:05
engineerim here00:05
_Angelus_mefisto__: you know, when you press hibernate from kde, an snapshot is saved on the harddrive and the pc is turned off. then you can turn it on and boot into xp and reboot again into kubuntu and resume00:05
Denisedavid another one00:05
grayearlhello.  How do I add my ssh keys in kubuntu?  is there something i need to install?00:05
_Angelus_now , what i want is , when the snapshot is saved on the hard disc the pc reboots instead of poweroff00:06
grayearlin gnome, i would copy them to ~/.ssh00:06
theunixgeekWould anyone like to do me a favor of going into Synaptic, checking off libgtk2.0-dev and libgtk2.0-doc for installation (just checking the check box, not installing unless you want to) and then go to File>Generate Package Download Script, please? as in this picture: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_fs6jwQq0LQk/SLsbgxQZ7KI/AAAAAAAAAQw/FSqht56jDO8/s1600-h/Screenshot-Synaptic+Package+Manager+.png00:06

_Angelus_what program does kubuntu/ubuntu use for the bootup splash?00:14
_Angelus_gensplash? bootsplash?00:14
dr_Willis!splash00:14
ubottuTo change your KDE splash screen go to KMenu -> System Settings -> Splash Screen00:14
katarzynahello00:14
katarzyna:)00:14
dr_WillisHmm. not hat one.. :)00:14
dr_WillisI normally disable all the splash00:14
dr_WillisI was thinking usplash00:14
katarzynawazzzzup??00:14
dr_Willis!usplash00:14
ubottuTo select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork00:14
_Angelus_im asking about the kubuntu one when the computer is started00:15
mefisto__grayearl: where does the error happen? what are you doing?00:15
LADoctorI think that it is only flash drive00:16
dr_Willis_Angelus_,  i think thats the Usplash stuff00:16
katarzynahihu hihu kubuntu :D00:17
_Angelus_ok00:17
Deniselaready finished00:17
_Angelus_so its called usplash then?00:17
dr_WillisLADoctor,  'sudo fdisk -l' should show all seen drives/filesystems.  those U3 thumbdrives confuse things.. sunce they appear as 2 devices - You may have to mount the thing manually00:17
dr_Willis_Angelus_,  at least it used to be Usplash.00:17
katarzynawhat is this of compizfusion key super??00:18
Denisela doc tunis00:18
mefisto__katarzyna: the win key (because windows is just super!)00:19

posingaspopularhello all, im trying to install kubuntu on a machine but /dev/sda1 shows a warning sign on the ntfs filesystem (i need to resize it before i install kubuntu) when i run gparted to try and resize the partition02:55
Denisesure u have to03:00
Deniseu have to format it in ext303:00
posingaspopulardenise, i need to  resize the ntfs partition before i can have an empty space to run mk2fs on it to make an ext3 FS to install the OS onto03:01
posingaspopularthe problem is resizing the partition03:01
Denisethe best thing is the use gparted before installing kubuntu03:02
favroposingaspopular: windows might not have shut down properly - reboot it03:02
Deniseu do all u have to do with gparted03:02
Denisethen u reboot and install kubuntu03:02
Deniseand check ur hd before03:02

Deniseu want to keep windows or not?03:04
jerryis it possible to remote connect to a windows desktop?03:04
posingaspopularfavro: no need for a defrag, it's a new computer, with a fresh vista install/new HD. there hasn't been time for the file system to become fragemented yet03:04

jerryis it possible to remote connect to a windows desktop?03:05
DeniseI have the answer in my book03:05
Denisedamn it03:05
Denisei dont have my glasses03:05
dr_Willisjerry,  with vnc yes, then theres ways to use the windows remote desktop also. but i never use that03:05
dr_Willisfreenx may have a client/server out for windows also by now (not sure on that)03:05
Dragnslcrjerry- yes, use krdc03:06
jerrynow is this over the internet or on a network03:06
jerrybecause either is fine03:06
dr_Willisthe internet is a network. :) vnc is best over the local lan. its not real secure.03:06
dr_Willisfreenx i hear can work over the internet. but ive not messed with it.03:06
posingaspopulardr_Willis: can i get a consult on my ntfs issue?03:06
jerryok thanks03:06
dr_Willisvnc is often 'tunnled'03:06

posingaspopularim trying to install kubuntu on a machine but /dev/sda1 shows a warning sign on the ntfs filesystem (i need to resize it before i install kubuntu) when i run gparted to try and resize the partition03:07
DragnslcrSome VNC servers can do SSL03:07
posingaspopularwarning sign = yellow sign with an ! point on it03:07
DragnslcrThere's a free client that supports SSL called SSVNC03:07
dr_WillisI always defrag/scandisk befor resizing (even if its new) and i use the gparted livecd. I 'shrink' the windows install. leaving a section of the hard drive Unallocated. I then let the ubuntu installer partition/install to the unallocated space.03:08
dr_WillisDragnslcr,  thats handy. :)03:08
DragnslcrYeah, it's pretty nice03:09
squirrel_is anyone here georgian ?03:09
Deniselol03:09

dr_Willisseems to work 'faster/better' that way. then by sharing the currently seen desktop03:10

slacker_dr_Willis: I used this same CD-Rom to install Ubuntu so I know it works fine.04:05
dr_WillisI think the drive is going out...04:05

slacker_No there not both hooked up at once04:06
slacker_I switched to make sure one wasn't dead04:06
slacker_dr_Willis: when I do lsmod what would be the module for cdrom?04:06
dr_WillisMine is a sata drive - that may be a differance04:07
dr_Willisslacker_,  as far as i know you shoyldent have to..  if its ide04:07
slacker_yea and mine is an IDE drive04:07
dr_Willisthere is a cdrom module i see loaded here04:07

dr_Willislsmod shows --> cdrom                  37408  1 sr_mo04:07
slacker_lsmod doesn't show a cdrom here for me04:08
dr_Willistry modprobing it and seeif it helps i guess04:08
slacker_modprobe cdrom?04:09
mrksbrdjust a dumb idea but you didn't change any jumpers on the drive did you after upgrading to kde04:09
slacker_mkrsbrd: No I did not, and the reason I switched over to KDE was due to this same problem04:09
slacker_modprobe cdrom displays nothing04:10
slacker_but I get no errors04:10
slacker_mksrbrd, dr_Willis: I would like to blame the hardware including maybe the motherboard controller, but if it launches any livecd and any windows cd at any given time than why wouldn't it work after ubuntu is loaded?04:11
dr_Willisive had some issues with the latest ubuntu and cd/dvd drives in several machines also..04:12
dr_Willisso im not sure where the fault lays04:12
slacker_Would a reinstall be adviseable?04:12
dr_Willishowever in THIS box even under widnows.. it fails to burn properly allt he time.. and it cant format DVD+RW's i noticed..04:12
dr_WillisI dont know that a reilstall will help at all.04:13
dr_Willisreboot and seeif the drive is seen04:13
chrzizHello04:13
dr_Willistry some live cd's  :) it should be seen then04:13
slacker_Mine is a straight up DVD/CD-ROM04:13
slacker_No burner =/04:13
mrksbrdlsmod showed you nothing about a cd-rom right?04:13
dr_Willisso its Just a Optical drive eh.. Old-Skool!04:13

slacker_dr_Wilis: I have had it for years lol. I'm just too cheap to get an upgrade tell it dies.04:14

deathoncityany command to edit this document?04:30
chrzizmrksbrd: i have no firewall unless kubuntu comes with one, my router doesn't have one either, hmm04:30
slacker_the command is kate04:31
slacker_its an application04:31
slacker_you should have it by default if not sudo apt-get install kate04:31
mr---t-kate is an editor04:31
* mr---t- to be clear04:31
slacker_sorry.04:32
deathoncityi have no permissions to write this document..04:32
deathoncityi am in a root terminal04:32
dr_Willisdeathoncity,  dozens of editors out there.. you must use 'sudo' to edit system files04:32
slacker_try using sudo04:32
dr_Willissudo nano /path/to/file.txt04:33
* mr---t- prefers kate04:33
dr_Willisslacker_,  what was the issue? the wife called me away04:33
dr_WillisIts a good idea to learn to use a console editor or 2. :)04:33
mrksbrdchriziz: did u see anything popup in background to accept dcc04:34
chrzizmrksbrd: yes, I accepted, it just failed for some reason. I have no firewall installed that I know of, but I am on a LAN04:34
deathoncityok..i'm in nano now..04:36
deathoncityi cannot find anything to edit this doc04:36
chrzizmrksbrd: what ports do i need to forward for DCC to work?04:36
mrksbrdif u don't have a firewall then u need not to worry04:37
mrksbrdlet me see if i can just find the link again04:37
chrzizhmm, i don't unless kubuntu comes with one04:37
dr_Willisif on a lan - the router may be vlocking things04:38
mrksbrdnope04:38
dr_Willisdeathoncity,  err.. nano is an editor.. care to give more details as to what you are trying to do?04:38
mrksbrdsaid he didn't have router w/firewall04:38
dr_WillisI wonder how a whole lan of machines gets to the internet without a router of some kind04:38
chrzizI have a router, no firewall though04:39
deathoncityworked04:39
dr_Willisthe router could be blockign the stuff. you may need to forward some ports.04:39
deathoncitythanks a lot04:39
dr_Willisdeathoncity,  great! :)04:39
chrzizthat's what i figured, hopefully i can track down which ones04:40
chrzizmrksbrd: i've forwarded ports that are supposed to be for dcc, shall we try again?04:42
mr---t-q ? couldn't you post the driver somewhere and let him go get it?04:42
slackermrkbrd: fdisk -l still shows the fat32 drive as beeing bootable.04:43
slackermrkbrd: fdisk -l and still I have no cdrom drive04:43

slackermr---t: http://paste.ubuntu.com/42301/04:53
max__hello could somebody tell me i downloaded kubuntu on dvd and the iso file is a zip, not like the cd of kubuntu which was afile. Should i extract it before burning it on a dvd? or just burn this iso file?04:53
mr---t-you have to blacklist the b43 drivers for one04:53
dr_Willisi also had to blaclisty the 'wl' driver for my lappy.04:53
chrzizhow do you do that?04:54
dr_Willismax__,  a zip? ive never seen them be .zip NOW some tools try to associate themselfs with .iso and makes windows open them as if they were archives04:54
mrksbrdchriziz: read this......http://ph.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=87053904:55
max__well zip or tar or... it s a compressed folder .iso and i don't know if i must just burn it like this on a dvd or if i should first extract, in the goal to have a self executable dvd04:56
slackermr---t: Any advice?04:56
chrzizmrksbrd: will do, thanks04:56
dr_Willismax__,  err.. a .iso is NOT a comrpesed folder04:56
dr_Willisuse a tool like 'burn at once' or similer to burn it to disk04:56
max__well the file is a .iso and a folder too i don't understand??04:57
dr_Willismax__,  under windows?04:57
dr_WillisSome apps associate them selfs with .iso so you CAN access the files in them04:57
dr_Willisbut you dont want to do it that way to burn them to disk04:57
mrksbrdchriziz: i found it........freewebs.com/ronserver/bcm43xx.tar.gz04:58
mrksbrddownload that unzip to home directory04:58
mrksbrdthen use ndiswrapper to install inf file04:58
dr_Willis'burnatonce' 'isorecorder' 'cdburnerxp'   'infrarecorder' all can burn a .iso file to disk04:58
mr---t-slacker:  and you say the drive works as attached now in windows?04:59
max__i can access them inside. my problem is what should i put on the dvd to make it self starting after?04:59
dr_Willismax__,  you install some app like the ones i listed.. You start that app.. you tell it to load the .iso and hit burn...04:59
chrzizmrksbrd: thanks, i'll try it now04:59
slackermr---t: well I don't have windows installed I simply put the windows xp disk in to see if it reads on boot which it does, it also reads 4 different Ubuntu livecd's including 1 64 bit version.04:59
mrksbrdlet me know04:59
dr_Willismax__,  this is assuming you are doing this under windows....04:59
dr_Willismax__,  ive seen winrar and other silly apps  be to 'smart' and start opening .iso files as if they were archives..you do NOT want to access them that way to make a  dvd disk.05:00
mr---t-slacker:  well linux is not seeing the drive according to your paste05:01
max__ok. i tried to use burn ar once this morning but it failed05:01
slackermr---t: I assumed that, but I am confused as to who it worked before, and not now? For instance I used the same drive in ubuntu 8.04 gnome for about 3 months and up until last week it does not see it.05:01
slacker*how05:02
dr_WillisIm thinking theres some kernel/issue/bugg with these vanishing cd/dvd drives... but i cant get much mor einfo on the problem05:02
mrksbrdmax__: just use k3b to burn iso05:02
dr_Willismax__,  i was thinking Burnatonce may not handle 'dvd' only cd's - the others should work.05:02
slackermr---t so I decided to go with a clean install of Kubuntu and same problem.05:02
max__ok05:02
dr_Willisinfrarecorder - Im very sure can use dvd05:02
max__k3b?05:02
dr_WillisI rarely ever use the dvd iso images05:02
max__is it under windows?05:02
dr_Willismax__,  if you are under linux. k3b works fine.05:02
mrksbrdoh wait windows05:03
slackermr---t: Maybe I will do another clean install and see if my drive is there before any updates. If so than thats my issue, if that doesn't work I can try to do a install with say Fiesty and see what that pulls up.05:03

dr_Willisbut xdmcp is needed for the -query stuff I belive.05:29

jussi01alistair_: press ctrl+esc, and see if compiz is listed...08:38
alistair_jussi01, no its not but I followed the install screen08:39
jussi01alistair_: try this, alt+f2 then compiz --replace08:39
Giant_SpeckCompiz doesn't start working out of the box.08:39

mrxmikei've installed firefox now... but i have to say - the fonts look a bit shitty S:11:47
Giant_SpeckComputers make me stupid sometimes.11:47
mrxmikehow did you clean it?11:47
Giant_SpeckI took a q-tip and put a little windex on it and very gently dabbed it onto the lens.11:48
Giant_SpeckAnd then I allowed it to air-dry.11:48
mrxmikeyou wrecked it open?11:48
Giant_SpeckNope.  I'm on a laptop.11:48
mrxmikeahhhhhhhhhhh11:48
mrxmike.. then better not clean it fully open...........11:49
mrxmikethere's dust all over in the air, even while you dont see it..11:49
mrxmikeso next time, just close it so far that the lens is just in the laptop.. :)11:49
Giant_SpeckRight.11:49
Giant_SpeckWell, at least it's working now.11:49

concernedcitizenhey guys anyone here having problems trying to install virtualbox?13:46
concernedcitizenon hardy heron kubuntu?13:46
concernedcitizenwhen trying to apt-get the virtualbox-ose-generic modules, I'm getting a package broken error13:47
Dragnslcrmarkc- unless you're running Bind for some reason, there is no daemon, they just use nslookup13:50
markcyes... but I have the strangest situation where a dialup connection is totally fine from konsole (ping etc) but none of the gui apps can resolve any hosts (konq, firefox, kmail etc)13:51
markcI'll be damned, it was because knetworkmanager was still running, even though I had wireless and lan disabled it seems it and kppp for dialup don't like each other13:56
DragnslcrRunning nslookup from a shell returns correct IP addresses?13:56
DragnslcrThat's a bit bizarre13:56
markcit did... as noted, when I killed knetworkmanager I could surf with konq13:56
DragnslcrMaybe KDE apps weren't trying to use the PPP connection13:56
markceverything looked fine from a shell (which I normally use) like ifconfig and route, /etc/resolv.conf (or the resolvconf package stuff) had the right perms... dnsmasq was working... 2nd dig lookups reutnr 0ms etc13:58

markccould be any number of factors14:09
markcdoes x start for you without xord.conf ?14:10
YippMNwell no when i boot into the system it blank the screen thre times and sits at command promt and i'm asuming it's trying to start kdm, and also the same happens with trying to boot the live cd14:11

magdalena_hi @ all14:12
YippMNno i didn't say i don't have xorg.conf , just that screen resolution must be getting set right for my monitor14:13
YippMNi guess ver 8.0? just burned it two days ago and things didn't work when i installed from the live cd so i burned the alternate install14:13
YippMNresolution must NOT be getting set right :)14:14
YippMNbut , when i used the live cd yesterday and then installed fromthere both tbooted up to kde14:14
YippMNand without changing anythign neither boots to kde today :)14:15
markcdoh!14:17
YippMNjust found this command on a forum hmmm , sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will that be a good way to get the screen resolution set to what my monitor is?14:17
markcdo you know what your monitor does ... 1280x1024 ?14:18
YippMNthe guy says it will walk you through restting things like resolution14:18
markcworth a try... easier to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf directly and add your exact res14:18
YippMNyeah the monitor is set at oh , somehting like 31.5 and 740x 400 around there i would have to go downstairs and looka gain to make sure14:18
YippMNwell guess i can look at both then :)14:19
markcmust be a real old monitor14:19
markcthat's an odd res14:19
YippMNwel its a bit old it's a g78 forget whos it is though14:19
YippMNwell in it's menu you can see a list of other res but i can't change it somehow14:20
YippMNhang on14:20
YippMNmarkc,  ok it's an IBM G78 , allways have used it when i fix friends machines and such , res in the menu is set at 31.5kz 70hz and 720x400 , yeah wierd res hmm14:26
markccan you get to a shell as root ?14:27
YippMNit shows a list of other res but trying to see if i can change that14:27
YippMNwell right now it's setting at command line in live cd , but yeah i canget it booted to the installed kubuntu and get a commandline and should be able to get loged as root14:28
YippMNut whats strange is yeterday i have it installed and kde up and also had kde up in live cd mode14:28
markcyou could try a test on the livecd without hurting anything... sudo -i , then cd /etc/X11 , mv xorg.conf xorg.conf.orig , startx and see what happens14:30
markcmaybe control-d back to the non-root user then startx14:31

cilkayIf you have to ask :)15:49
cilkayLogical Volume Manager15:49
YippMNahh ok hehe , well i installed kubuntu from the live cd and the live cd and kubuntu worked ok , but adept was being wierd , so , i reinstalled from the alternate cd and now neither the install or live cd can get kdm to start :)15:50
YippMNso, how do i get them to load kdm?15:51
YippMNhate to have to run the install again15:52
cilkayWill kdm start with the Live CD?15:53
YippMNnope but it did yesterday15:53
cilkayWhich chipset on the vid card?15:54
YippMNmaybe have to pop knoppix in see if that works15:54
cilkaygood idea15:54
YippMNhmm don't remember the chipset15:54
cilkayThat's important.15:54
YippMNwell it has errors that ti an find screens but settings are wrong or somthing15:55
YippMNbut see the strange thing is that when i instaleld from the live cd which was working fine , the install booted into kdm just fine but adept was being wierd and so someone said install from the alternate cd and i did15:56
cilkayFind the chipset and Google for it. If you're experiencing this, someone else already has.15:56
cilkayStill, strange that it would have worked yesterday and not today.15:56
YippMNthats what i mean the live cd shouldn't have a peoblem15:57
cilkayTry Knoppix. Maybe your vid card died.15:58
cilkay... which would be an unfortunate coincidence.15:58
YippMNonly thing i can figure is that i did install gentoo to see how the text installer was and then just went and installed kubuntu after that cause the machine isn't fast ebough for compiling and figured kubuntu would be btter for my friend to work with :)15:58
YippMNbut if the vid card died i wouldn't be able to do anything in commandline either would i?15:59
cilkaytrue15:59
cilkayYou're able to do that.15:59
cilkaySo what does the xorg log say?15:59
YippMNyes i can get to commandline15:59
YippMNi did look , i haven't played with that on this gentoo machine in some time so i don;t remember :)16:00
YippMNi didn't , look16:00

starenkahi. i just opened amarok and it claims that it cannot play mp3s (it played them mere hour ago). it says something about bad demux plugin. any clues?17:27
cilkayjuan: I thought of a way to install Kubuntu and have LVM, but it's a bit fiddly. Create three primary partitions, the first only 200M or so, the second, 8GB or so, assuming that's big enough to hold all of the K installation, the third the balance of the disk. The balance of the disk can be left unused, actually so you really need two partitions, one small, one about 8GB.17:28
cilkayjuan: You're going to install K into the 8GB partition.17:28
starenkabtw ai think something is screwed up generally cause, kaffeine also refuses to make any noise and wants to dl plugin (fails with error - plugin aloready installed)17:28
cilkayjuan: you're going to reboot with a Live CD that supports LVM and create your volume group and volumes in the free space.17:29
cilkayjuan: You're going to move all the stuff that's in /boot into the small volume. Actually, you could have just made the small partition /boot on the original K install.17:29
cilkayYou don't have to fiddle with GRUB if you do it on the original install.17:30
juani dont want to install ubuntu i just need to edit my /etc/fstab on an lvm partition from a livecd/usb boot17:31
cilkayjuan: Copy everything in your 8GB partition, the one that has all the filesystems except /boot, into your newly-created LVM volumes.17:31
starenka---solved---17:31
cilkayMake the 8GB partition swap.17:31
cilkayModify grub.conf to point to the new /17:32
cilkayReboot.17:32
juancikay the easiliest way to install kubuntu on lvm is use the alt cd, infact if i find an alt cd that should support it, just need to figure out how to get a livecd given i have no harddrive17:33
cilkayI've done stuff like this on remote servers where I had no access to the console so it is possible to do.17:33

juanyeah at the start of a livecd you type linux toram or something like that17:42
graemethanks guys, that worked much appreciated17:43

myk_robinsonhey. Having issues with a new laptop. Gateway M-6881 with an Intel 3954ABG wifi. THe wifi works for about 5 minutes, then the connection drops. It still shows connected in the wifi manager, but i cannot ping or gte out unless i reconnect.18:55
YippMNjussi01,  well it's s3 virge, ati i guess18:56
myk_robinsonit has done this with Kubunt 8.04.1 with all updates. Also did the same with SUse 1118:56
jussi01YippMN: oh, bleh, not sure with those18:56
myk_robinsoni am coming up empty handed with the forums18:56
YippMNjussi01,  but yesterday i had installed it off the live cd , and it was fine kde loaded but adept was bucking so someone said usethe alternate cd and now that nor the live cd can load kdm hmm, but knoppix and gentoo live cd's work just fine18:57
jussi01YippMN: have you checked the cds are ok? md5's and scratches?18:57
YippMNjussi01,  i have two copies and tried both , and the knoppix cd has more wear than the kubuntu ones :)18:58
jussi01YippMN: sorry, no idea then :(18:58
YippMNjussi01,  hmm heres one thing could it be that i'm installing it on a 4gb hdd and have a 15 gb hdd that the alternate takes all that space and thats whythe live and the install don't load kde? but then the live cd doesn't bother with that hmm18:59
skinnymg1YippMN: what kind of cable is running to your cd-rom drive19:00
YippMNjussi01,  i use gentoo , but this is an older machine that will run on dailup and only 500 mhz so compiling isn't gonna be fun so i thouhg thtis distro would be better for a newbie19:00
YippMNskinnymg1,  what do you mean19:00
jussi01YippMN: if its only a 500mhz, Id say go grab fluxbuntu or xubuntu19:01
skinnymg1is it ide sata19:01
YippMNskinnymg1,  oh yeah19:01
skinnymg1which one ide19:01
YippMNskinnymg1,  but why would one livecd work and another not19:01
YippMNskinnymg1,  ide19:02
skinnymg1will the live cd boot19:02
skinnymg1YippMN19:03
YippMNskinnymg1,  well, yesterday i installed off the live cd, and they both worked ok but adept was being strange , so , someone said it's better to install from the alternate cd , so i did , and today neither the install or the live cd can load kdm ,19:03
YippMN skinnymg1  but the gentoo and knoppix live cd's boot just fine19:03
YippMNskinnymg1,  so, strange hu :)19:05
skinnymg1yeah if your running old cables it will give you a fit so make sure you have the newer style ide cables19:05
YippMNskinnymg1,  by newer your meaning?19:06
YippMNskinnymg1,  but that doesn't explain why one live cd works and another doesn't and why they did yesterday19:06
skinnymg1what is it 20pin and 40 pin, or 40 pin and 80 pin something like that i cant remember19:07
YippMNskinnymg1,  hmm well it's the same i have on this machine and anyother ive had19:08
YippMNskinnymg1,  the thing is the live cd should run today if it did yesterday and gentoo and knoppix live cd's run19:10
skinnymg1the only way to tell the differnce in the ribbons is the size of the actual wires in the cable you need the smaller ones19:10

wolfscifi: if you are a linux newbie you may make some mistakes which could affect the system bad, i also did this, just save your important files normally /home and /etc and later on after a fresh installation yopy the desired files back, because normally adept is stable, but i prefer working with console for important things20:02
boesengineer,   ok, where is the trash foulder located at,  it's not in my home dir20:02
scifiwolf, im in the manage repositories, what am i looking for?20:03
wolfscifi if universe and restricted is checked, so perhaps your desidred package is in these repositories, but i think you have messed up the system if adept crashes during an important thing like installing its not good20:04
