rain2 | sorry for looking like an idiot and for being very off topic... yet with my imagination I sometimes try to slightly bend animals' perceptions of the illusion of reality by communicating with them... well it would be cool if it worked. ;) I'd be like Harry Potter second edition limited version XD.

comboman | I'm about to format this computer, I want to dual boot windows and kubuntu... which do I install first? | 00:39 |

=== root is now known as Guest48076 | ||
favro | comboman: install windows first and ubuntu will install a boot manager for you | 00:46 |
favro | !grub | 00:46 |
ubottu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 00:46 |

venik | am I the only one who finds kde 4.1 VERY fragile and unstable? | 00:55 |
dwidmann | venik: 4.1, or 4.1.1? | 00:55 |
venik | everything WAS working until I "upgraded" this morning, and now.... ;-(((((((((((((((((((((((99 | 00:56 |
venik | where do I get 4.1.1? | 00:56 |
=== medo is now known as meDo | ||
dwidmann | venik: I think 4.1.1 came out this morning or something ... at any rate, check if that's what you have | 00:57 |
venik | how do I check? | 00:57 |
dwidmann | venik: pull up any kde4 app, and go to help -> about kde | 00:58 |
rain2 | A theory about something really fragile and unstable and riskier than kde: you know what "remote empathy" is for? it is sort of like the planet's "mind"... it is there to cooridinate beings to create "luck"... so that life is less likely to die out from unlucky events such as planetary natural disaster. Yet the biodiveristy of our planet is decreasing too fast, and clearly you can not coordinate beings that are dead... the planet | 00:58 |
rain2 | is dying much faster than the scientists think... we should act now to save the planet before it is too late | 00:58 |
venik | 4.1.1 | 00:59 |
dwidmann | venik: ,hmm, then I think I'm not upgrading to 4.1.1 tonigh :o | 00:59 |
venik | don't-- it has already cost me the entire afternoon | 01:01 |
venik | How do I get teh K menu to behave as it did in kde 3.5? | 01:01 |
venik | (right click opens a context menu, etc.) | 01:01 |
dwidmann | venik: right click on the K and you should have the option to change it | 01:02 |
venik | that allowed me to change to the "classic" mode, but it works very differently, and I do not get the context menu when I right click on an application | 01:03 |

sancho21 | I don't like dolphin to be my default file manager when my usb is plugged. How to change it into konqueror? | 02:02 |
dr_willis | !dolphin | 02:04 |
ubottu | Dolphin, or more properly D3lphin, is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror - Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory and inode/system_directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin. | 02:04 |

Ratchet4620 | how do i go about starting a program as root? | 04:01 |
Agent_bob | depends on the program but likely kdesudo blah | 04:02 |
Agent_bob | !sudo | 04:02 |
ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 04:02 |

Ratchet4620 | ok | 04:02 |
Agent_bob | Ratchet4620 wait | 04:03 |
Ratchet4620 | ok | 04:03 |
Agent_bob | you are probably haveing an issue caused by not being in the correct group | 04:03 |
Ratchet4620 | im trying to run kino as root | 04:03 |
Agent_bob | but why as root ? | 04:03 |
Agent_bob | <Ratchet4620> well crap it seem sthat i have to be root just to do captureing <<< no you just need to be in the correct group | 04:04 |
Ratchet4620 | if i read the info rigfht then i need to run it as root to have acess to my firewire cam | 04:04 |
Agent_bob | see what group the device node is in and add that to your user and whamoh you are in. | 04:05 |
Ratchet4620 | er what program do i need to do that? | 04:05 |
Ratchet4620 | D: | 04:05 |
Ratchet4620 | sry im such a noob | 04:05 |
Agent_bob | ls -l /dev/blah and the users and groups admin gui thingy... or use root.... but like i said first. kdesudo kino #but that's a window user, insecure, lame, way to get there. | 04:06 |
Agent_bob | how ever it will work. and is easiest in the short term | 04:07 |
Agent_bob | can cause problems later on because of bad habits | 04:07 |
* Ratchet4620 is tryin to find the gui | 04:08 | |
Agent_bob | kmenu > system > users.... | 04:08 |
Agent_bob | i think... | 04:09 |

Ratchet4620 | ok theres 1 group | 04:09 |

Agent_bob | i have one game, it's a port from c64 to dos, that i would like to be able to run in linux (not a gamer obviously) but it doesn't have any sound like it should have. and im not sure if it's pebcak or pebsas | 04:23 |
Agent_bob | in qemu it has sound but the timming is screwy in qemu | 04:23 |
Agent_bob | in dosemu it doesn't run at all. so.... ;/ | 04:24 |

Agent_bob | CostaRicanQuaker ^5 | 04:25 |
mixed1234 | does anyone know of a software that will allow me to use my keyboard as a piano??? | 04:25 |
Agent_bob | that would be so confusing... | 04:26 |
CostaRicanQuaker | anyone know how to set thunar as my default file manager on kde4? nobody seems to be talking at that channel | 04:26 |
Agent_bob | CostaRicanQuaker i'm not seeing anything helpful here. i don't have kde4 so i may stab in the dark a little. | 04:33 |
Agent_bob | !delphin | 04:33 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about delphin | 04:33 |
Agent_bob | !d3lphin | 04:34 |
ubottu | Dolphin, or more properly D3lphin, is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror - Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory and inode/system_directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin. | 04:34 |
* mr---t- spelling counts after all | 04:34 | |
Agent_bob | CostaRicanQuaker that "might" be a clue there ^ | 04:34 |
Agent_bob | mr---t- only in bot's and command's ;/ | 04:35 |
mr---t- | :-) | 04:35 |
CostaRicanQuaker | so...i somehow open thunar and go to file? | 04:35 |
CostaRicanQuaker | or settings...hmm | 04:35 |
Agent_bob | no you open konqueror and do it there i think | 04:36 |
Agent_bob | change the association for inode/directory and inode/system_directory to thunar | 04:37 |
Agent_bob | again i'm not sure that will work in kde4 | 04:38 |
Agent_bob | but worth a shot | 04:38 |

illmortal | Hey guys, I just installed Windows onto my Slave drive by making it the master drive and unplugging my hard drive with Linux installed, but now when I put the Linux drive back as master I get a grub error 21. Is there any way to avoid this and load up linux? | 14:11 |
Germankubuntu | hi all | 14:14 |
ahmos | illmortal: so you linux hdd i sthe master | 14:14 |
illmortal | yes ahmos. | 14:14 |
illmortal | while the slave is the windows drive. | 14:15 |
nejode | illmortal: that was the wrong way to do it, see>> http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3081671.0;topicseen | 14:15 |
Germankubuntu | i have a question concerning kde 4.1/3.5.9. | 14:15 |
Germankubuntu | I have a new laptop here on which i want to install kubuntu. now i am, not sure whether i should install kde 3.5.9 or 4.1? is 4.1 ok enough to work with? | 14:16 |
Germankubuntu | or should i wait till october for kde 4.2? | 14:16 |
nejode | Germankubuntu: if I were you I'd stick with 3.5 for a while... | 14:17 |
nejode | ...you can always have both to play with | 14:17 |
Germankubuntu | but how can i change to 4.1/4.2 or whatever completely later? | 14:18 |
Germankubuntu | i mean with my different personal settings? | 14:19 |
nejode | Germankubuntu: you can have both in two different sessions | 14:19 |
illmortal | Is there a way that I can at least modify the grub right after POST? Or am I gonna need to reinstall Kubuntu in order to modify the Grub of the master drive? | 14:19 |
ahmos | illmortal: you can try this when the cub menu opens | 14:19 |
Germankubuntu | nejode, i know that. but then part of my settings are kept in .kde4 and part in .kde, true? | 14:19 |
nejode | illmortal: you can fix almost any grub problem without re-install | 14:20 |
Germankubuntu | so is an easy shift from 3.5 at a later stage possible? | 14:20 |
illmortal | cub?... | 14:20 |
ahmos | ilmortall: in the menu stop at your linux you used to boot the press e the e again to edit the first line to hd(0.0) or try hd(0,1) | 14:21 |
nejode | Germankubuntu: you can have both and select the one to use at the login screen (kdm) | 14:21 |
ahmos | illmoratal: understood | 14:21 |
Germankubuntu | nejode,thanks for the reply,but i know that | 14:21 |
ahmos | illmortal: understood | 14:22 |
illmortal | ahmos, right after POST Kubuntu tries to load up but I receive the Grub error, do I need to press "e" prior to POST or right after POST before Grub tries to load? | 14:22 |
Germankubuntu | but then, as far as i understand it, part of my personal settings are under the folder .kde4 (for the kde4-part) and part in .kde. Is that a problem and will i be able to get rid of 3.5. at a later stage? | 14:22 |
nejode | Germankubuntu: your setting are independant... you menus will get a bit overcrowded | 14:23 |
ahmos | when the grub starts it's menu and before loading the os | 14:23 |
nejode | Germankubuntu: sudo aptitude remove kubunyu-destop | 14:23 |
illmortal | the menu wont even start... it automatically get error 21 | 14:23 |
nejode | illmortal: you'll have to boot with your liveCD or use the super grub disk | 14:24 |
illmortal | I believe it reads, "starting Grub 1.5" then the next line is, "Error 21" | 14:24 |
illmortal | ah... understood. | 14:24 |
ahmos | so you should use your live cd to reinstall grub as shown in the link you took before | 14:24 |
Germankubuntu | nejode, i see | 14:26 |
illmortal | once I log into Kubuntu via Live CD.. do I need to make GRUB see the master drive as the slave drive? | 14:26 |
nejode | illmortal: first you have to find out how grub sees you disks now | 14:27 |
ahmos | nejode: how we do that | 14:28 |
nejode | illmortal: grub sees you disks one way and linux other way | 14:29 |
nejode | illmortal: to find out how linux sees your disks: sudo fdisk -l | 14:30 |
ahmos | so whta are the commands nejode | 14:30 |
nejode | illmortal: to find out how grub sees them... | 14:30 |
illmortal | Ok so before I start up with LiveCD I need to make Linux drive the master drive and the windows drive the slave drive, this way Grub sees the hard drives correctly, yeah? | 14:31 |
nejode | ...you have to boot to a grub shell fron the live CD and in konsole type: sudo grub | 14:31 |
illmortal | yeah | 14:31 |
nejode | ...you'll get a grub shell... | 14:32 |
nejode | ...and type: find /boot/grub/stage2 ... enter | 14:32 |
nejode | ...it'll spit out something like (hd0,1) | 14:33 |
nejode | ... that's equivalent to /dev/sda2 | 14:33 |
illmortal | so keep my linux drive as the slave drive then, yes? | 14:34 |
illmortal | oh wait no.. leave it as master drive. | 14:34 |
nejode | ...that way you know where grub sees your kubuntu install | 14:34 |
illmortal | ok understood. | 14:34 |
illmortal | then what do I need to modify? | 14:34 |
nejode | you vae to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst | 14:35 |
nejode | *have | 14:35 |
illmortal | no no I understand that. but once I see the drive with the kubuntu installed on it | 14:35 |
illmortal | do I need to make kubuntu's drive (hd0,1) into a slave by making it hd1? | 14:38 |
nejode | illmortal: if you boot to your live CD and connect again I can walk you through | 14:38 |
illmortal | ok ill be back, thank you nejode :) | 14:38 |
nejode | ¿does you windows work OK? | 14:38 |
illmortal | yes | 14:38 |
illmortal | because I installed it onto the slave drive | 14:39 |
illmortal | but I installed it by making the slave drive a master drive and I disconnected the Linux drive | 14:39 |
nejode | man , windows shoul always be in (hd0,0) | 14:39 |
illmortal | that's where linux was I believe. | 14:39 |
illmortal | brb gonna boot live cd | 14:40 |

=== keith is now known as compilerwriter | ||
nejode | illmortal: it's showing only one disk | 14:57 |
illmortal | yes because linux was installed only on one disk. | 14:58 |
illmortal | Kubuntu thinks that it needs the slave drive in order to run... but that's not the case because the slave drive was just an empty drive. | 14:59 |
nejode | ..ok, but the command should show all your disks | 14:59 |
illmortal | yes my IDE cable is bad.. so I cannot use CD ROM and both Disks at the same time, at the moment. | 15:00 |
illmortal | I have 1 disk and cdrom running on 1 ide cable at the moment. | 15:00 |
illmortal | i should still be able to specify the linux drive as a slave though, right? | 15:01 |
nejode | ok, but when you connect it again you'll screw up thins again | 15:01 |
illmortal | =\ | 15:02 |
nejode | right now your kubuntu is on the first partition of you master drive1 | 15:03 |
illmortal | right... that's how it's supposed to be. | 15:03 |
illmortal | because I installed it that way. | 15:03 |
illmortal | so I need to make the master drive as the slave drive in grub so that grub will still run, if that's possible? | 15:03 |
nejode | ¿are you going to leave it that way? | 15:03 |
illmortal | Windows XP is gonna be the master drive. Grub needs to see the old master drive as the slave drive. | 15:04 |
nejode | ...because grub's stage1 is still installed in the MBR of your original master1 disk | 15:05 |
=== atcc is now known as tonks | ||
illmortal | so I need to install stage 1 onto the WIndows XP hard drive, the new master1 disk? | 15:06 |
nejode | it's a pain man, if you ask grub where kubuntu is, it'll tell you that it's on (hd0,0) | 15:06 |
tonks | ..hi there.. it seems that i still can't open executable files. i already install wine application. anyone knows how ..pls help.. | 15:07 |
illmortal | ok well is Windows XP able to see the Kubuntu drive (ext3)? This way I can save all my files onto the Windows XP drive and reinstall Kubuntu correctly? | 15:07 |
nejode | 1) you have to setup your disks as they are going to stay | 15:07 |
nejode | 2) find out tour grub geometry | 15:07 |
nejode | 3) edit your menu.lst | 15:08 |
nejode | 4) re-install grub on your master1's MBR | 15:08 |
nejode | illmortal: do that with your live CD | 15:09 |
illmortal | do what with my Live CD?.... | 15:09 |
nejode | windows by default does not see anything unix-like | 15:09 |
illmortal | is there anything I can do so that windows XP can see my ext3 drive?.. | 15:10 |
nejode | ...save you files to other location | 15:10 |
nejode | illmortal: there's a couple of freeware utilities to make windows see and write to ext3 | 15:11 |
nejode | ...but I don't have them at hand>>> google | 15:12 |
illmortal | Yeah I'm trying to find the utilities via google | 15:12 |
nejode | illmortal: if I were you i'd use the live cd to backup my files, gutsy and hardy can write direct to ntfs | 15:13 |
illmortal | Yes but I cannot because I need another IDE cable. | 15:14 |
nejode | ...via ntfs-3g | 15:14 |
nejode | ...ahhhh tough luck | 15:14 |
illmortal | found it: http://www.fs-driver.org/index.html :p | 15:16 |

ford | test | 15:19 |
favro | ford: fail | 15:20 |
ford | darn :) | 15:20 |
ford | I have a question about Kubuntu being installed within windows. In the Kubuntu CD I dl/d, the install program says I can install it within Windows, and then easily uninstall it. I see it in the Window add/remove programs list, but when I try to remove it, it just flashes the screen and then nothing. Is this known? Any ideas? | 15:21 |
ford | I installed in a separate partition on the disk, so I could probably just wipe that partition, but I would like to clean up the bootloader (not sure if that's the right term) that now has an option for Kubuntu on it. | 15:21 |
DexterF | hi | 15:22 |
DexterF | ford: well, you could simply fir eup a windows install cd or the recovery console from F8 in the windows menu and /fixmbr so it writes a new entry | 15:23 |
ford | So the recovery console will allow me to alter the list of boot options? | 15:23 |
nejode | ..the command is fixmbr | 15:24 |
DexterF | I need to install Kubuntu or any other desktop linux at a friend's site, no internet there tho, so no apt-getting mp3 support for amarok and such. What are my options there? Is there a "complete" download like 2 DVDs or so? | 15:24 |
ford | fixmbr, is that a linux command or windows? | 15:25 |
DexterF | ford: uh, no, the windows recovery console gives you a command prompt at which you enter /fixmbr. perhaps read its help first. fixmbr /? I guess. | 15:25 |
DexterF | windows. | 15:25 |
ford | Ok great, thanks I did not know that. | 15:25 |
ford | So can I ask... I am about to reinstall... Is there an advantage/disadvantage, to installing it "inside windows" as mentioned on the Kubuntu CD? The only one I can see is that you can put it in a folder in Windows filesystem... But since I have a dedicated partition, is it maybe easier for me to just boot from the install CD, install it, and use it in that way? Then, if I need to remove... | 15:27 |
ford | ...it, I can kill the partition, and then use /fixmbr to clean up? I just want to see if that makes sense to any experts out there | 15:27 |
MarcoBXBRO1_ | does anyone know why remastersys doesn't install on kubuntu - error that I'm getting is "BREAK (Install) | 15:29 |
yakuzi | DexterF: As far as i know there's a DVD version of Kubuntu and that has a lot more sofware on it available to install, i'm not sure if the mp3 support is on it tough | 15:29 |
Rioting_pacifist | akregator crashes and running it in console doesnt give me an error | 15:29 |
DexterF | ford: I seriusoly don't know how this works anyway, but I'd go for a native install on general principle | 15:29 |
DexterF | yakuzi: last time I checked I didn't find any dvd for 8.04.1 | 15:30 |
Rioting_pacifist | i suspect its because of the db thing it warned me about, is there a fix_akregator_database_using_magic command or something | 15:30 |
Rioting_pacifist | DexterF: mp3 support cant be shiped on the cd/dvd | 15:30 |
ford | Alright, thanks... I guess the WORST thing that could happen (barring crazy outliers), is that I end up with an additional OS entry. | 15:31 |
ford | thanks for the help | 15:31 |
nejode | ford: delete your kubuntu partition, boot with your windows install cd into recovery console and execute fixmbr | 15:31 |
Rioting_pacifist | to enable mp3 support run amarok on an mp3 file and it should automagically install the codec from the multiverse | 15:31 |
yakuzi | DexterF: well i guess it will be the version of the release so no updated version (the normal install cd for download isn't updated either right?) | 15:32 |
DexterF | Rioting_pacifist: how come? | 15:33 |
ford | One more question about that... I have Windows XP (installed at office via network and don't have the CD for it), but I do have a Windows 2000 Installation CD. Can I boot to the Windows 2000 installation CD to execute fixmbr? | 15:33 |
DexterF | I mean, it's in the repositories but can't be burnt? | 15:33 |
ford | nejode: I apologize for not prefixing my last question with the name it was to. I am seeing that I should have done that but I'm new to IRC | 15:33 |
yakuzi | DexterF: well if it isn't on cd/dvd tha's because licence issues | 15:33 |
DexterF | ford: wouldn't count on it. but fixmbr should work with *any* xp inst cd, so ask your friend, neighbour or whoever to borrow it for said action | 15:34 |
ford | DexterF: Thanks | 15:34 |
DexterF | yakuzi: it's on hd. on the mirrors. | 15:34 |

slylyias | trying now | 22:13 |
arty_ | ouki | 22:13 |
arty_ | for fille system choce ext3 | 22:13 |
arty_ | or better for /home chooce ext3 and for /home chooce raiserFS | 22:14 |
slylyias | guided - use entire disk | 22:15 |
slylyias | that one? | 22:15 |
jussi01 | slylyias: if you dont have any data you want to keep on the disk, then yes | 22:16 |
slylyias | yeah, I already backed up everything. | 22:16 |
jussi01 | slylyias: yeah, so just choose that and it does the work for you | 22:17 |
slylyias | but what I want is a swap space, 2gigs of FAT32 (for windows) and then kubuntu. | 22:17 |
jussi01 | slylyias: you want to run windows on it also? | 22:17 |
slylyias | yes | 22:17 |
slylyias | I'd like to dual boot | 22:17 |
jussi01 | 2 gigs isnt really enough for a windows install... | 22:18 |
slylyias | sorry, typo that's 20 | 22:18 |
jussi01 | do you have windows on there currently? | 22:18 |
slylyias | no | 22:18 |
slylyias | nothing on any of it. | 22:18 |
jussi01 | ok. you should install windows first | 22:18 |
slylyias | windows fails to install, don't know why. | 22:18 |
jussi01 | or else you will run into grub problems | 22:18 |
slylyias | I'm going to use the livecd to format the drive and repartition, then install windows, then install kubuntu. | 22:19 |
slylyias | because the current partition on there is NTFS, and windows won't let me put a FAT32 on an NTFS | 22:19 |
slylyias | And I *hate* NTFS | 22:20 |
jussi01 | slylyias: why? | 22:20 |
slylyias | because NTFS doesn't play nice with anyone but windows? | 22:20 |
jussi01 | ntfs is a much better system than fat32 IMHO - and there are decent linux drivers for it | 22:20 |
slylyias | tell that to the linux drivers that thrashed my old ntfs drive. | 22:20 |
slylyias | plus, regardless, windows isn't installing correctly on the current partitions. | 22:22 |
slylyias | it installs the first part, reboots, and then just keeps rebooting in a loop. | 22:22 |
jussi01 | right.... | 22:22 |
slylyias | If I was single I'd just toss XP out the windows and not use windows at all. | 22:23 |
slylyias | But the girlfriend wouldn't appreciate that. | 22:23 |
jussi01 | anyway, its after midnight here, jhopefully someone else can help you, as Im off top bed. | 22:23 |

jhaig | I decided to try kubuntu, after using ubuntu for a long time. One of the first things I tried was kpilot to sync my Palm, as I had found gpilot a little buggy. However, kpilot has now wiped my calendar (!!!!!). Firstly, has anyone seen this before and secondly, is there any way I might be able to salvage what I have in Evolution? | 23:06 |
ian^laptop | it seems video output to dvi is disabled | 23:06 |
ian^laptop | venik: i already tried to install openssh-server blind and to start it, but it seems I failed | 23:07 |
simoo | jhaig: I don't know much about Palms but I would asume you 'syncd' to an empty kpilot instead of 'copying' from palm to kpilot first. So unfortunately your calender is probably gone | 23:09 |
jhaig | simoo: Well, I'm not impressed. I came to it as a new user using KDE for the first time. It detected the username on the device correctly, so I am very surprised that the first time sync should assume that it should copy that way. | 23:12 |
simoo | jhaig: I could be wrong, I have not actually used kpilot myself. I have just done a similar thing with other syncing software (did it with may MAC and phone I think). I learned the hardway to check syncing options before plugging in - although like I said I could be wrong. Sorry to hear it. | 23:14 |
simoo | jhaig: have you got then gnome copy of your palm backed up? | 23:16 |
jhaig | I have some stuff in evolution, but I'm not sure how to restore it. | 23:17 |
simoo | can you not just sync back? | 23:17 |
simoo | makeing sure to set it to copy from evolution to your palm? | 23:17 |
jhaig | http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5537597 - "I have never had any luck with Kpilot except to wipe out everything on my palm when I attempt to sync it." Hmmm | 23:18 |
