rain2sorry 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.   So the question remains why are the birds singing over there?  Maybe I am just lucky :P  Or else I guess I am just crazy. :(00:33

venikam I the only one who finds kde 4.1 VERY fragile and unstable?00:55
dwidmannvenik: 4.1, or 4.1.1?00:55
venikeverything WAS working until I "upgraded" this morning, and now.... ;-(((((((((((((((((((((((9900:56
venikwhere do I get 4.1.1?00:56
=== medo is now known as meDo
dwidmannvenik: I think 4.1.1 came out this morning or something ... at any rate, check if that's what you have00:57
venikhow do I check?00:57
dwidmannvenik: pull up any kde4 app, and go to help -> about kde00:58
rain2A 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 planet00:58
rain2is dying much faster than the scientists think... we should act now to save the planet before it is too late00:58
venik4.1.100:59
dwidmannvenik: ,hmm, then I think I'm not upgrading to 4.1.1 tonigh :o00:59
venikdon't-- it has already cost me the entire afternoon01:01
venikHow 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
dwidmannvenik: right click on the K and you should have the option to change it01:02
venikthat 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 application01:03

Germankubuntuor should i wait till october for kde 4.2?14:16
nejodeGermankubuntu: if I were you I'd stick with 3.5 for a while...14:17

Germankubuntubut how can i change to 4.1/4.2 or whatever completely later?14:18
Germankubuntui mean with my different personal settings?14:19
nejodeGermankubuntu: you can have both in two different sessions14:19
illmortalIs 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
ahmosillmortal: you can try this when the cub menu opens14:19
Germankubuntunejode, i know that. but then part of my settings are kept in .kde4 and part in .kde, true?14:19
nejodeillmortal: you can fix almost any grub problem without re-install14:20
Germankubuntuso is an easy shift from 3.5 at a later stage possible?14:20
illmortalcub?...14:20
ahmosilmortall: 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
nejodeGermankubuntu: you can have both and select the one to use at the login screen (kdm)14:21
ahmosillmoratal: understood14:21
Germankubuntunejode,thanks for the reply,but i know that14:21
ahmosillmortal: understood14:22
illmortalahmos, 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
Germankubuntubut 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
nejodeGermankubuntu: your setting are independant... you menus will get a bit overcrowded14:23
ahmoswhen the grub starts it's menu and before loading the os14:23
nejodeGermankubuntu: sudo aptitude remove kubunyu-destop14:23
illmortalthe menu wont even start... it automatically get error 2114:23
nejodeillmortal: you'll have to boot with your liveCD or use the super grub disk14:24
illmortalI believe it reads, "starting Grub 1.5" then the next line is, "Error 21"14:24
illmortalah... understood.14:24
ahmosso you should use your live cd to reinstall grub as shown in the link you took before14:24
Germankubuntunejode, i see14:26
illmortalonce I log into Kubuntu via Live CD.. do I need to make GRUB see the master drive as the slave drive?14:26
nejodeillmortal: first you have to find out how grub sees you disks now14:27
ahmosnejode: how we do that14:28
nejodeillmortal: grub sees you disks one way and linux other way14:29
nejodeillmortal: to find out how linux sees your disks: sudo fdisk -l14:30
ahmosso whta are the commands nejode14:30
nejodeillmortal: to find out how grub sees them...14:30
illmortalOk 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 grub14:31
illmortalyeah14:31

illmortalyes because linux was installed only on one disk.14:58
illmortalKubuntu 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 disks14:59
illmortalyes my IDE cable is bad.. so I cannot use CD ROM and both Disks at the same time, at the moment.15:00
illmortalI have 1 disk and cdrom running on 1 ide cable at the moment.15:00
illmortali should still be able to specify the linux drive as a slave though, right?15:01
nejodeok, but when you connect it again you'll screw up thins again15:01
illmortal=\15:02
nejoderight now your kubuntu is on the first partition of you master drive115:03
illmortalright... that's how it's supposed to be.15:03
illmortalbecause I installed it that way.15:03
illmortalso 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
illmortalWindows XP is gonna be the master drive. Grub needs to see the old master drive as the slave drive.15:04

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
illmortalok 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
nejode1) you have to setup your disks as they are going to stay15:07
nejode2) find out tour grub geometry15:07
nejode3) edit your menu.lst15:08
nejode4) re-install grub on your master1's MBR15:08
nejodeillmortal: do that with your live CD15:09
illmortaldo what with my Live CD?....15:09
nejodewindows by default does not see anything unix-like15:09
illmortalis there anything I can do so that windows XP can see my ext3 drive?..15:10
nejode...save you files to other location15:10
nejodeillmortal: there's a couple of freeware utilities to make windows see and write to ext315:11
nejode...but I don't have them at hand>>> google15:12
illmortalYeah I'm trying to find the utilities via google15:12
nejodeillmortal: if I were you i'd use the live cd to backup my files, gutsy and hardy can write direct to ntfs15:13

fordtest15:19
favroford: fail15:20
forddarn :)15:20
fordI 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
fordI 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
DexterFhi15:22
DexterFford: 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 entry15:23
fordSo the recovery console will allow me to alter the list of boot options?15:23
nejode..the command is fixmbr15:24
DexterFI 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
fordfixmbr, is that a linux command or windows?15:25
DexterFford: 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
DexterFwindows.15:25
fordOk great, thanks I did not know that.15:25
fordSo 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 there15:27
MarcoBXBRO1_does anyone know why remastersys doesn't install on kubuntu - error that I'm getting is "BREAK (Install)15:29
yakuziDexterF: 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 tough15:29
Rioting_pacifistakregator crashes and running it in console doesnt give me an error15:29
DexterFford: I seriusoly don't know how this works anyway, but I'd go for a native install on general principle15:29
DexterFyakuzi: last time I checked I didn't find any dvd for 8.04.115:30
Rioting_pacifisti suspect its because of the db thing it warned me about, is there a fix_akregator_database_using_magic command or something15:30
Rioting_pacifistDexterF: mp3 support cant be shiped on the cd/dvd15:30
fordAlright, thanks... I guess the WORST thing that could happen (barring crazy outliers), is that I end up with an additional OS entry.15:31
fordthanks for the help15:31
nejodeford: delete your kubuntu partition, boot with your windows install cd into recovery console and execute fixmbr15:31
Rioting_pacifistto enable mp3 support run amarok on an mp3 file and it should automagically install the codec from the multiverse15:31
yakuziDexterF: 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
DexterFRioting_pacifist: how come?15:33
fordOne 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
DexterFI mean, it's in the repositories but can't be burnt?15:33
fordnejode: 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 IRC15:33
yakuziDexterF: well if it isn't on cd/dvd tha's because licence issues15:33
DexterFford: 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 action15:34
fordDexterF: Thanks15:34

slylyiasHi, I'm trying to repartition my drive for a kubuntu install, can anyone help me? It doesn't seem to work.22:08
arty_slylyias: what you need22:09
slylyiasI'm booting the live CD now.22:10
arty_slylyias: install kubuntu then you have offer format hdd and install choce this option and work fine22:10
arty_slylyias: ouki next next next and then you have offer manualy format and participate hdd22:11
arty_chooce this and FOR / chooce 10gb  hnet for /swap chooce 2x capacity your ram and for /home what you left22:12
arty_slylyias: and all formate and work fine22:12
arty_gl and hf22:12
slylyiasthanks22:13
slylyiastrying now22:13
arty_ouki22:13
arty_for fille system choce ext322:13
arty_or better for /home chooce ext3 and for /home chooce raiserFS22:14
slylyiasguided - use entire disk22:15
slylyiasthat one?22:15
jussi01slylyias: if you dont have any data you want to keep on the disk, then yes22:16
slylyiasyeah, I already backed up everything.22:16
jussi01slylyias: yeah, so just choose that and it does the work for you22:17
slylyiasbut what I want is a swap space, 2gigs of FAT32 (for windows) and then kubuntu.22:17
jussi01slylyias: you want to run windows on it also?22:17
slylyiasyes22:17
slylyiasI'd like to dual boot22:17
jussi012 gigs isnt really enough for a windows install...22:18
slylyiassorry, typo that's 2022:18
jussi01do you have windows on there currently?22:18
slylyiasno22:18
slylyiasnothing on any of it.22:18
jussi01ok. you should install windows first22:18
slylyiaswindows fails to install, don't know why.22:18
jussi01or else you will run into grub problems22:18
slylyiasI'm going to use the livecd to format the drive and repartition, then install windows, then install kubuntu.22:19
slylyiasbecause the current partition on there is NTFS, and windows won't let me put a FAT32 on an NTFS22:19
slylyiasAnd I *hate* NTFS22:20
jussi01slylyias: why?22:20
slylyiasbecause NTFS doesn't play nice with anyone but windows?22:20
jussi01ntfs is a much better system than fat32 IMHO - and there are decent linux drivers for it22:20
slylyiastell that to the linux drivers that thrashed my old ntfs drive.22:20
slylyiasplus, regardless, windows isn't installing correctly on the current partitions.22:22
slylyiasit installs the first part, reboots, and then just keeps rebooting in a loop.22:22
jussi01right....22:22
slylyiasIf I was single I'd just toss XP out the windows and not use windows at all.22:23
slylyiasBut the girlfriend wouldn't appreciate that.22:23
jussi01anyway, its after midnight here, jhopefully someone else can help you, as Im off top bed.22:23
slylyiasg'night!22:24

jhaigI 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^laptopit seems video output to dvi is disabled23:06
ian^laptopvenik: i already tried to install openssh-server blind and to start it, but it seems I failed23:07
simoojhaig: 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 gone23:09
jhaigsimoo: 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
simoojhaig: 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
simoojhaig: have you got then gnome copy of your palm backed up?23:16
jhaigI have some stuff in evolution, but I'm not sure how to restore it.23:17
simoocan you not just sync back?23:17
simoomakeing sure to set it to copy from evolution to your palm?23:17
