[00:38] another quick qn, how do I set it to duplex printing [00:38] there are only two options i.e. and Off(1-sided) [00:39] I tried to ignore, didn't print duplex [00:40] Serva: What exactly IS duplex printing? [00:40] printing both sides [00:40] of a sheet [00:40] of = on [00:41] Okay... Try the Print dialog for the application you want to print from. [00:41] Yep, tried that already. no luck. [00:42] And nothing in System Settings? Then I really don't know... [00:42] Serva: what kind of printer? [00:43] Hp Laserjet 4200n [00:43] Using windows, I can print on both sides [00:43] aah, how about lp command [00:45] Okay! Try the HP stuff (somewhere in the System menu, I think). [00:45] At the time of configuring the printer I looked at all that - no mention of duplex printing [00:47] Serva: you may find some help here http://packages.ubuntu.com/hu/hardy/ifhp [00:48] Serva: Or try pointing your browser at localhost:631. [00:49] package "ifhp" : "It provides access to printer features like duplex printing, paper tray selection and strong accounting using the printer's internal page counter."

[00:52] ahmos: Kcontrol > Appearances and Themes > Icons. Most likely the settings you're looking for are there. [00:53] If you want to change the icon set (don't like Crystal SVG), try http://www.kde-look.org/ and install it using the instructions on the page. [00:53] i've installed anew icon theme and when i restored the deafulat one ,so icons are not expressing themselves any more [00:53] ahmos: "the icons are not expressing themselves anymore", explain. [00:55] for example files of sound and documents and tar.gz are using the same icon [00:55] sorry my english is weak [00:56] ahmos: what icon set do you wish to use? [00:56] Okay, so it is using the same icon for everything... [00:56] crystal svg the default one [00:57] yes notriddle [00:58] ahmos: so what happens when you go to Icons, and click "apply"? Do the icons change or remain the same? [00:58] some changes and the other take the same icon [01:00] ahmos: here's the updated Crystal SVG... see if it changes things for you http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Crystal+SVG?content=8341 [01:01] ok, i'll try it and thank you all for your help :) [01:01] np [01:02] I personally like Mewls - modern and pretty complete... worth trying (if only for a minute) http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Mewls?content=68430 [01:03] Anyway to set an image as wallpaper from within Firefox? Or does the image need to be saved, then applied thru konqueror (or any other image program)?

I would like to connect the pdf-printer of my kubuntu-machine via samba to a windows-machine. Windows finds this printer but wants a driver to be installed. Which driver do i have to install? [01:15] I agree with the last statement. [01:15] :) [01:16] i just happened to come across it, but upon actually using it, it's pretty disappointing === serdar_ is now known as Hailsematary [01:16] looks like, it was booming for few seconds but got abandoned after few minutes [01:18] Now that we're talking about IRC channel lists, here's some authentic source http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/chanlist// [01:19] florian: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/425 it says to use the regular Windows drivers for the printer [01:19] Serva: searchirc.com [01:20] Serva: it found us! (first link for 'kubuntu'). seems more usable. [01:20] tricky link again [01:21] ign0ramus: but this is not a real printer. It's just the pdf-printer. I don't find a regular Windows pdf printer driver. Is there one? [01:23] florian: apparently you need the Virtual PostScript Printer driver [01:24] http://pdf-tips-tricks.blogspot.com/2008/01/share-pdf-network-printer-with-samba.html [01:24] hmm i'm a bit lost.. how is sound implemented in ubuntu? shouldnt i be able to listen to several sound sources at the same time? [01:25] hmm... http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=328539 [01:25] ignOramus: Wow, thank you! [01:25] chris____: yes, you should [01:25] florian: np... see adobe link above for the driver [01:27] hey everyone... I kinda have a ubuntu driven laptop and didn't know because of canonical and dell's deals my video card works better on ubuntu then on others and etc... [01:27] :) [01:27] but now I'm using the PCLOS... [01:27] MiniME [01:27] I have some questions about the kubuntu before isntalliung it [01:27] chris____: see if this helps http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5087562&postcount=8 [01:27] is kde 4.1 + fglrx working... some people say it has lags and bugs... [01:29] also I dislike the apt system... is smartPM a good usage on the ubuntu bases... and also does kubuntu has an intrepid version? or only hardy? [01:29] for now... [01:29] apt is the best [01:29] !botsnack [01:29] Yum! Err, I mean, APT! [01:29] ign0ramus: tx.. reading [01:30] also, https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuIntrepidVersion [01:30] hey SMART is awesome too... [01:30] finally, people really seem (based on a quick google search) to be experiencing problems with fglrx and KDE4.1 [01:31] ...which is not to say it won't work, buy my god, the bug reports! [01:31] :( but the kubuntu comes with kde3 as option? [01:31] diogo: which version are you asking about? [01:31] hardy comes with both options, and for now Intrepid will ship with kde4 [01:32] well I think hardy will be ok for now because fglrx I donthink comes with support for xorg 1.5 so intrepid I'll have problems [01:32] uhm got it... [01:32] i do hope that there will be a Canonical version of Intrepid using kde3, though. still so many problems with kde4 [01:35] oh another thing I like the kde3 stripped out use better the smplayer instead of the kaffeine and amarok.... but is there a way to use the kde3 in a minimal mode? [01:36] diogo: i don't understand the question [01:36] simultaneous sound works! thx! [01:36] chris____: awesome! what specifically did you change? [01:36] (you have to pass the knowledge on, that's the only catch) :) [01:36] well kde is usually a set of programs... can it be installed only the base of kde..? [01:37] i installed that patch for flash [01:37] chris____: cool... that's what i figured, but it's good to get confirmation [01:37] after setting everything to pulse audio in the settings for sound [01:37] before that i didnt have simultaneous sound at all [01:38] but only on the real install, not on a virtual boot - everything worked fine there [01:38] diogo: i'm sure it's possible, but it certainly won't ship that way, and getting support will prove difficult if you're missing basic packages that everyone else has [01:38] chris____: hey, whatever works@ [01:38] ok [01:39] ign0ramus: tx for the assistance:) [01:39] chris____: that's what we're here for. you will do the same when you can [01:39] i just wonder how i would find a flash patch on my own:) [01:39] chris____: same way i did - google! [01:39] Back again on the topic of duplex printing. I still can not do that. [01:39] duh:) [01:40] man i installed mac os x on a pc today you have no idea how tired of googling i am:) [01:40] Serva: hpif didn't help? [01:40] ifhp [01:40] chris____: i think i have an idea...

[09:22] lvm/raid [09:23] probably https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto, but I don't know how current that is [09:24] stdin: in fact, it's so new it doesnt exist yet :) [09:25] it seems to have been removed... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=RAID&titlesearch=Titles [09:26] there's few results === c is now known as Guest68790 [09:26] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=408461 [09:26] that looks good === Guest68790 is now known as c_ [09:28] stdin: but some of you results are better [09:31] why dont i see swap in fdisk!

[09:51] _LiNuX_: I assume you pressed them at the sam time... ie. hold alt down and press f2... [09:51] <_-Jay-_> You can put the skins in your .amsn in your home folder, no need to go root [09:51] oh. nice.

[10:05] _LiNuX_: it is a hidden folder [10:05] .folder or .file means they are hidden [10:06] you can go to dolphin - view - view hidden files to see them [10:07] <_LiNuX_> ...dolphin what is a dolphin? [10:07] <_LiNuX_> a special command? [10:08] !dolphin [10:08] 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. [10:08] no, its the file manager program [10:10] <_LiNuX_> i have ubuntu 8.04 [10:10] <_LiNuX_> you know i used in Windows .. [10:12] _LiNuX_: dolphin is the equivalent to windows explorer [10:12] hi [10:12] MementoMori: hi [10:13] what is a good desktop search engine? is strigi or beagle better?

I am running kubuntu on my eeepc901 and just want to see if I should download the kernel sources (whatever they may be) and install them. I'm just a bit afraid to screw around with the kernel on this machine because I have it automatically updated by [10:59] adamm's kernel [11:06] question: if i sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop, will it get rid of the kde4 apps i have? [11:06] cody: you need adamm's kernel headers then [11:06] and koffice? [11:06] okay [11:06] I'll download those babies then... [11:07] !pure xfce [11:07] Sorry, I don't know anything about pure xfce [11:07] !purexfce [11:07] If you want to remove all !KDE and !Gnome packages and have a default !Xubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce » [11:07] CostaRicanQuaker: ^^ [11:08] no no, i have kde3 from the original kubuntu, kde4, xfce and gnome [11:08] i want to get rid of kde3 [11:08] but keep kde4 and all of the kde apps [11:08] CostaRicanQuaker> question: if i sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop, will it get rid of the kde4 apps i have? [11:09] favro, most likely No. [11:09] kubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package. removeingit wont remove much [11:09] what if some of the kde apps i have [11:09] are kde3 apps [11:09] like i'm not sure wheni installed koffice [11:09] that's why I did the !purexfce thing for CostaRicanQuaker [11:09] will it be taken awway? [11:11] hi guys, little prob here, i made a file with a background image and formatted text over it in openoffice, i want to print it, but the shop only accepts pdf, jpeg or tiff format, exporting it in pdf it loses all its graphic and stuff, it changes a bit, how do i do to pass it from .odt to .jpeg without losing quality? i know it's offtopic but someone might know... thank you [11:12] favro, here's from your link "It's possible that the commands might remove some other packages you have since added to the default and want to keep. If that's the case, keep track of which packages those are and reinstall them" that is precisely what i wnt to do [11:12] don't want to do* [11:13] favro, I already have the headers apparently. [11:13] CostaRicanQuaker: then open synaptic and mark those apps you don't want to be uninstalled [11:13] favro, I tried to install them using apt, and it said that I already have the lastest version. [11:13] mark them as what? [11:13] sTratovariuZ: use export to pdf from the menu (not the button) and set the image quality to 100% [11:13] CostaRicanQuaker: mark those apps you don't want to be uninstalled [11:14] ok [11:14] ScorpKing: i've tried that already but even if i put it at 100% quality the image in pdf loses the formatted text and quality... isn't there a way to export it in jpeg just as it is? or something else i dunno [11:14] cody: I don't know anything about adamm's kernel [11:15] favro: ...well the vpn software that I am trying to install asks for this specifically: Directory containing linux kernel source code [/lib/modules/2.6.24-21-eeepc/build] [11:15] sTratovariuZ: nothing that i know about. google around for it [11:15] favro: and I leave it as the default above, but it fails everytime [11:16] i did... haven't found anything... that's why i'm here [11:16] cody: there is ##eepc for help [11:16] favro: Yeppers, I am there now too... [11:17] favro: Thanks for your help! [11:17] cody: I've done nothing with the eepc [11:17] np [11:20] i jsut installed 7.04 i want to get the latest version how do i do that?

[11:35] guillermo: it would be less d/loads to get 8.04 but you can do it frm 7.04 [11:35] guillermo: unless your on dapper 6.06 than you have to upgrade one release at a time [11:35] s/have to/best to [11:36] * gnomefreak personally would backup and download the ISO and install clean 8.04 [11:37] * jussi01 would advise that also [11:44] Hello.

Everytime when I start the kubuntu I have to use a command like "sudo -c 777 /xx/yyy" to be able to rum a program. How can I set permission to this directory only once, instead of everytime? [13:59] artur_, what directory is it [14:00] if its a /dev/ dir then you probably need to add yourself to users and groups [14:00] but then you definitely don't want to have *executables* in /dev... [14:01] lol true [14:01] oobe: the command is "sudo chmod -c 777 /dev/vboxdrv " ....for the virtualbox :P [14:01] see i was write [14:01] artur_, i have alink on this somewhere hold on [14:01] oobe: ok === aziz_ is now known as aziz [14:04] artur_, the link i was looking for had insructions to create a group called vbox users then add yourself to that group i cant find it but a simple way to do it is to add this "chmod 666 /dev/vboxdrv" to /etc/rc.local [14:05] type sudo chmod /dev/vboxdrv to test it [14:05] then every time you boot it will run the same command when you start your system [14:06] thats what i did b4 i created the correct permissions it works the same [14:06] if 666 does not work try chmod 777 /dev/vboxdrv [14:07] oobe: i see, but when i type this command i have to give password, in the rc.local will it work as if the root was typing? [14:08] <_LiNuX_> hi again [14:09] oobe: done! i the next time i start the linux i'll know if it worked. Thank's man!

[14:11] <_LiNuX_> Would you like to configure the address and port now? [14:11] artur_, just test it before reboot by typing "chmod 777 /dev/vboxdrv" in console [14:11] <_LiNuX_> What i can't do ...? [14:11] i know 777 will work but 666 may work also [14:13] _LiNuX_, have you edited the tor config [14:13] <_LiNuX_> How i do that? [14:13] i dont remember been a while since i used it [14:14] man tor [14:14] read about it [14:14] http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-tor-to-surf-anonymously-in-ubuntu-feisty-with-firefox.html [14:14] <_LiNuX_> oobe: i read aboute it and i dont understand why it dosen't work... [14:15] did you install tor and privoxy [14:15] from what i remember you need to install both [14:15] but that link has another option [14:16] <_LiNuX_> i install tor [14:16] <_LiNuX_> and then i press the button to install and Prioxy but nothing happe [14:16] <_LiNuX_> happen* [14:17] sorry i cant help you [14:17] i dont recall it being that hard [14:17] <_LiNuX_> ok:) [14:17] <_LiNuX_> worth the tor? [14:17] Hi all - is there any way to get a list of what packages a person has added to a system after the initial installation? or get the date and time each package was installled [14:18] hey i need to know what is the command to start the run dialouge i.e alt f2 in kde 3 i know its krunner in kde4 but i need to know what it is for kde3 so i can add it to my compiz bindings [14:23] tobor_, i know its possible [14:25] tobor_, found somthing for you dpkg -l [14:26] so is it true kde3 will be dropped in ibex? [14:26] what is ibex [14:26] !ibex | oobe [14:26] oobe: Alpha Software: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for K/ubuntu 8.10, due October 2008 - #ubuntu+1 for discussion.

[14:27] i think i might be better off staying with 8.04 [14:27] can i still add some intrepid repos and keep my kde3 install [14:28] i guess thats not really somthing people know yet [14:29] oobe: more like, you will break your system if you add only some intrepid repositories [14:30] yeah true [14:30] intrepid with kde3 should be possible.. if the packages are still in repositories.. then just install ubuntu or command line only (like not install kde4) then install kde3 from command line [14:30] i mean if i upgrade will kde3 be uninstalled [14:36] pobe thank you. [14:40] oobe: I dont see any way to tell which packages were installed AFTER the initial system install with that. Am I missing something? Or is that showing me only the packages that were installed after the initial install? [14:42] oobe: also - I use apt to do my installs, is dpkg (dpkg-deb) using the same tracking database as apt? [14:46] tobor_, packages listed with ii next to them means there installed [14:47] tobor_, this command will make a list of all installed apps "dpkg -l | grep ii > list.txt" [14:48] then you can have a complet list [14:48] to save and refer to as your system changes [14:49] tobor_, and yes dpkg refers to the same data base === roozbeh is now known as mohi [14:50] how can i change the directories that shall be searched if i want to execute something in my console? === mohi is now known as roozbeh [14:53] weyland: modify $PATH by adding PATH=$PATH:/path/to/new/path to ~/.profile [14:53] Pici: tz [14:53] Pici> ty [14:57] hey I installed ubuntu studio with the real time kernal and am having a bunch of issues.

[16:36] serva, if the cups driver supports duplex printing then in the printer properties, you will see the options [16:37] serva, it's been a very long time, but from what i remember, once I installed the correct driver, it was a page layout option. [16:37] Do I need a latest cups driver then? In the printer options I can only see and Off (1-sided) choices for Duplex option. [16:37] Hi [16:37] Where can I download Cairo Dock?

[19:27] anyone can help me with my problem [19:28] maennj: if not, check bugs.launchpad.net [19:28] ok thx [19:29] hoonteke: it should be sqlite [19:29] sTratovariuZ: should be? is it? check. [19:29] how [19:30] amarock 1.4.9? [19:30] yep [19:30] Should be Settings->Configure Amarok->Collection [19:30] under collection database [19:30] next question: where is the sqlite db file stored on your system? [19:31] SQLITE [19:31] i dunno, how do i find it? [19:31] I don't know. I use postgres, not sqlite. probably in ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok [19:31] somewhere [19:31] maybe it's called collection.db [19:32] yes [19:33] hey guys.. is there any way I can find out what is causing my user accounts to crash ? (when I keep one user open and switch to another, the first user seems to crash once in a while) [19:33] so it's there ... [19:33] what's the file size? [19:33] I am using KDE 3.5.9 [19:34] sTratovariuZ: short answer, I don't know, I'm just guessing. [19:35] it's 20 MB [19:35] sTratovariuZ: that sounds about right. If you quit amarok, is it the same size? [19:36] what is a BTS ? [19:36] anom01y: context, please? [19:36] let me check [19:37] yes after quitting is 20.6MB [19:37] .:( [19:37] :( [19:37] :( [19:37] sTratovariuZ: the only thing I can suggest is starting amarok from the console and see if it spews anything out you that is helpful. [19:38] I don't know. I'm fairly new to the KDE paradigm. (Well, in the past 5 years, anyway, I used it before then) [19:39] the thing is now it's working i started it and it's fine, the collection desappears if i reboot [19:39] as if my music was on an external unmounted hard drive [19:40] instead it's on an internal automounted one (i modified the fstab) [19:41] someone in #linux told me to come here to ask about a BTS regarding my kde user accounts crashing [19:41] someone says this "maybe it's a haldeamon thing" [19:42] what's the haldaemon? [19:42] sTratovariuZ: well, your thought process is the same as mine. [19:42] hal = hardware abstraction layer [19:42] the daemon is a service that manages that [19:42] google is your friend [19:43] anom01y: have you googled for bts? I have not idea what this out of context [19:44] ah c'mon hoonteke... don't leave me to google... ive already tried that way... nothing! thatz why im here!!!! [19:44] sTratovariuZ: well, the problem is I have no idea. [19:44] as I said, I'm recently returned to kde so it's new to me too [19:44] your best bet is to ask on different forums [19:44] maybe file a bug against launchpad [19:44] and have someone tell you what it might be [19:45] after reboot, is that file empty? [19:45] good luck, because that's all I can give. [19:45] i should check now i cant reboot [19:45] alright thank you mate [19:45] ;) [19:45] np [19:45] g'luck [19:46] hoonteke: well if you see above I was asking why my kde user account continues to crash when I switch to another account [19:46] it stays open for a while, sometimes a few days, but eventually the account that is not open crashes [19:47] (I have 2 accounts, if I leave the current one open, and switch to the other, the first one (the one that is not open) crashes and goes to the KDE login screen) [19:51] is there a log file or something I can check to see what is going on ? I think it might be firefox, but I have no way to tell..

[20:57] anom01y, yes [20:57] you probably have to open kmix and turn up the mic volume in the output section [20:57] anom01y, I did, repeatedly [20:58] and check the switches, make sure input it set to mic, and not line [20:58] ... [20:58] in kmix, there should be a switches tab, and you can select either MIC in or line in [20:58] that is what I have in my kmix anyway [21:00] anom01y, I can choose Line/CD/Mic/Video/Phone/Aux [21:00] riorio: well mic Mic [21:00] I pick Mic and nothing hppens [21:00] hmm [21:00] is it in the right jack in the back ? [21:01] did you plug it in correctly ? or change soundcards since the last time you had a headset ? [21:01] yes, I even tried another microphone with the same result [21:01] no, same soundcard [21:01] hmm maybe try the alsamixer ? (I think its alsamixergui) [21:01] * riorio is very confused [21:02] run alsamixergui, see if that helps [21:02] anom01y, is it in the main menu? [21:02] you can always ask in #alsa [21:02] riorio: no, just hit alt-f2, and type alsamixergui [21:02] oh, #also WOW :) [21:03] anom01y, "none such" (my system is speaking swedish) [21:03] ahh [21:04] isn't it odd anyway? I can hear the headset microphone in the speakers, but not in the headset [21:05] ohh [21:05] well then its the headset [21:05] its meant to do that [21:05] er [21:05] nm [21:05] hmm [21:05] Anyone have an idea on fixing / getting rid of this daily irritation: Window with title "Error" is not responding.

[22:45] cause it says cant find /dev/hdb in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [22:45] _LiNuX_: try running 'kbuildsyscoca' to force the menu to update [22:46] jerry_: no - the mount command on it's own will tell what's mounted [22:46] kbuildsycoca [22:46] not sys [22:47] theres alot of stuff am i looking for hdb? [22:47] jerry_: if it doesn't show in mount then fire up gparted [22:47] <_LiNuX_> nothing happen [22:47] <_LiNuX_> .... [22:47] help with packaging please! When I try to package my software trough rules file I install files in debian/name but dpkg-buildpackage does not take that! why?? [22:47] ok ill start it [22:47] no sdb - it says disk /dev/sdb: 12.0 GB [22:48] <_LiNuX_> kbuildsycoca running... [22:48] <_LiNuX_> Reusing existing ksycoca [22:48] <_LiNuX_> that shows [22:48] ok so in gparted what do i do [22:48] jerry_: seems the disk is called sdb [22:49] when you fire it up it should show your first hard disk [22:49] right i see that [22:49] o sdb i gotcha [22:49] you need to chande to the second from the menu top left [22:49] ok so i pulled sdb up [22:50] s/chande/change/ [22:50] do what? [22:50] _LiNuX_: and your app still isn't in the menu? [22:50] how do you want to use it - one partition? [22:50] _LiNuX_: you aren't running kde4 are you? [22:50] um shure i just need space [22:50] for music and movies [22:50] right click it and select new [22:51] k [22:51] <_LiNuX_> i'm runing ubuntu [22:51] <_LiNuX_> 8.04 [22:51] now what [22:51] _LiNuX_: okay, but which desktop environment? [22:51] KDE or gnome? [22:52] <_LiNuX_> Where i can see that? [22:52] <_LiNuX_> ,,,, :) [22:52] <_LiNuX_> Gnome [22:52] i see logical partition and filesystem and a bunch of other stuff [22:52] jerry_: right click again - and (I forget the menu options) and set it as ext3 partition [22:53] _LiNuX_: you probably want to ask in #ubuntu then about your menu updating. #kubuntu is for kde [22:53] <_LiNuX_> ok [22:53] <_LiNuX_> Tnx :) [22:53] right click again? [22:53] <_LiNuX_> hi [22:53] on the big bar thing [22:53] ? [22:53] <_LiNuX_> i i cant find Rkhunter [22:53] still #kubuntu. [22:54] <_LiNuX_> xm......... [22:54] type /join #ubuntu [22:54] jerry_: that should bring a menu to select partition type and filesystem type [22:54] it wont let me give me that option all i have is new [22:54] I had been running 8.04 with kde3, then installed kde4, then removed kde4, and reinstalled kubuntu-desktop (though it was still there, and kdm) now when i boot i dont get kdm, i just get command line login... [22:54] it wont let me give me that option all i have is new [22:55] it wont let me use any option but new [22:55] is that bad? [22:55] you need to select new - you are making a new partitiomn [22:55] then file ext 3? [22:55] yep [22:55] and then ok> [22:56] ? [22:56] or add i mean [22:56] anyone? [22:56] add and set the size [22:56] now it says one object pending [22:56] joshuajtl: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm [22:57] joshuajtl: I think. [22:57] do i wait or do i have to start the process? [22:57] joshuajtl: type startx [22:57] thx LeeJunFan [22:57] favro: dont want to have to do that constantly [22:57] in konsole right? [22:57] jerry_: what in konsole? [22:57] joshuajtl: or 'sudo nano /etc/X11/default-display-manager' and change it to /usr/bin/kdm [22:58] um the one on kubuntu? [22:58] never mind [22:58] you wherent talking to me [22:58] jerry_: nothing in konsole - what is the partitiner doing? [22:58] LeeJunFan: great that looks like it will work :) [22:58] joshuajtl: once you have default-display-manager changed then just run /etc/init.d/kdm start [22:59] if X isn't already running on the system. [22:59] one operation pending do i wait it doesnt seem to be doing anything [22:59] LeeJunFan: and if X is running? [22:59] joshuajtl: don't worry about it, when you reboot kdm should start up. [22:59] nope - so it has been given a size and filesystem? - format it [23:00] cool thanks LeeJunFan [23:00] you're welcome. [23:00] ok so i applied the operations and its giving me a load bar [23:00] i think its doing it [23:01] all operations complete [23:01] jerry_: great - I'll be back in a min :) [23:01] k [23:01] jerry_: that was pretty quick for 120G... [23:01] yeah i dont know how it did it that fast [23:02] but now it says on the formater [23:02] in the top menu you can get details of the drive - check it [23:02] k [23:03] but now it says on the formater - ?? [23:03] brb [23:05] sdb1 filesystem extended [23:05] under that sdb5 filesystem ext3 [23:06] hold on im trying to do the dishes and eat and type [23:06] at the same time === Ardarandir1 is now known as Ardarandir [23:07] what? Not driving through a school zone while texting on top of that? [23:07] ok so now what i think its partitioned right [23:09] how do i remount the drive? [23:10] jerry_: shut the partitioner [23:10] k === david is now known as Guest45492 [23:11] i did that [23:11] jerry_: we need to make a folder to mount it in - what do you want the disk called? [23:11] stuff i guess [23:11] does anyone know why all icons and context (right click) menus are HUGE in all my KDE apps all of a sudden? [23:12] jerry_: in konsole sudo mkdir -v /media/stuff [23:12] ok [23:13] again in konsole kdesu kate /etc/fstab === root is now known as Guest77904 [23:13] cmo [23:13] es la d español [23:13] kate is now runing [23:14] español [23:14] !es [23:14] En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [23:14] graxç [23:14] grax [23:14] ok [23:14] so do i need to add something to this text [23:15] /dev/sdb5 /media/stuff ext3 defaults,rw,relatime 0 1 [23:15] jerry_: ^^ add that [23:15] copy and paste? [23:15] that'll do it :) === zorn is now known as qwerdy [23:16] under all of the text or somewhere in the middle? [23:16] jerry_: then save and close and in konsole sudo mount -av [23:16] jerry_: it doesn't matter - at the bottom is cool [23:16] hi all [23:17] hi qwerdy [23:18] it says [mntent]: warning: no final newline at the end of /etc/fstab [23:18] mont: proc already mounted on /proc [23:18] is that right? [23:19] does it start like that [23:19] jerry_: that is a minor error - kdesu kate /etc/fstab - go to the last line - hit enter - save [23:19] I have a wierd home network connection... I connected my two computers (one with kubuntu and one with windows) to a switch, connected to my internet modem.. apparantly my internet supplier is stupid enough to give my 2 different ip addresses [23:19] jerry_: yep - the last line should be your new disk [23:19] through its dhcp [23:20] after i did sudo mount -av [23:20] anyone with me? [23:20] it said mount proc already mounted on /proc [23:20] qwerdy: or maybe not stupid enough - but generous enough. [23:20] :P whatever [23:20] Most companies have far more IP's than they'll ever use, they should let them be used. [23:20] qwerdy: yeh - never used a switch connected straight to the net [23:20] mount: /dev/sdb5 already mounted on /media/stuff [23:21] nothing was mounted [23:21] is this all i have to do ? [23:21] will it boot every time or is this a manual process is what i mean? [23:21] jerry_: it already is mounted check for read/write - copy a file to /media/stuff [23:22] but now I've two different ips in two different subnets. so I cann't connect directly to the samba.. [23:22] (in both directions) [23:22] jerry_: putting it in fstab is so it mounts every time [23:22] k [23:22] favro, jerry_: if it's ext3 you'll have to be root to copy to it, probably should make a directory on it with normal user ownership. [23:23] qwerdy: you would be better off using a local dhcp - either a comp or router [23:23] o i see but will this show up in home? [23:23] I don't have one... can't I use some "arp"\"route" trick to fix it? [23:23] not in home - it is in /media [23:23] qwerdy: you should be able to connect, but not browse them. in windows use \\[ip address, in kde use smb:/[ip address of other machine] [23:24] qwerdy: maybe - not something I'm familiar with === minera2 is now known as kdrx [23:24] where is dash media at? [23:24] using samba over the net? - wouldn't be too safe [23:24] like is it in dolphin file explorer [23:25] jerry_: it is like in c:\ [23:25] favro: true. [23:25] dolphin yes [23:25] but every connection between the two computers now passes through the gateway :S [23:25] qwerdy: right, slow too. [23:26] how do i access it in dolphin? [23:26] qwerdy: you could setup aliases, don't know how windows would handle setting up another IP along with dhcp, but on linux you could do ifconfig eth0 10.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up, and setup the windows machine with a secondary IP in the same subnet. [23:26] err ifconfig eth0:1 .... [23:26] since eth0 is your providers subnet. [23:27] jerry_: dolphin - filesystem I think - I remove dolphin [23:27] LeeJunFan: but how can I configure another ip in windows? [23:28] qwerdy: in xp it's in the advanced settings for that network device, when you click on tcp/ip properties. [23:28] hmm.. [23:29] jerry_: found it? [23:29] yeah i opened it up but it said could not find /media/stuff/filesystem [23:30] qwerdy: not sure if windows will let you do that when the master interface is dhcp, also I'm not sure about linux, but dhclient may wipe out alias devices when it renews your lease on the master device. [23:30] only way to know is to try I guess. [23:30] jerry_: sudo fdisk -l again please [23:30] jerry_: and can you paste it? [23:31] !paste | jerry_ [23:31] jerry_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [23:33] LeeJunFan: no.. it doesn't work [23:33] ok so heres the url :http://paste.ubuntu.com/48174/ [23:33] qwerdy: is the option in XP disabled? === fernando is now known as Guest23657 [23:33] hold on ill be back in 1 minute [23:35] LeeJunFan: it's not disabled, I can fill in the alternative tab, but it doesn't get the ip when I type ipconfig [23:35] ok im bakc [23:35] back [23:35] qwerdy: ipconfig /all ? [23:36] so did i do something wrong? === SkEmO is now known as SkEmO||OFL [23:36] hi somebody here use opera? [23:36] qwerdy: maybe it doesn't show up there? try pinging the IP address you gave it maybe and see if you get a return. [23:37] I _almost_ wish I had windows to try it on. lol [23:38] did i not give the right url? [23:38] LeeJunFan: I wish I had a hammer [23:38] LeeJunFan: it doesn't seem to get that ip [23:39] jerry_: no having a quick google [23:39] oh google is my friend in times like this [23:39] so cool go right ahead. [23:39] ill go get a snack [23:39] Anyone have an idea on fixing / getting rid of this daily irritation: Window with title "Error" is not responding. This window belongs to application system-config-printer-applet-kde (PID=7684, hostname=localhost). [23:39] qwerdy: hrm. Well sounds like the only option to keep your smb traffic local is to get a router. [23:40] qwerdy: there's another option, might be complicated.... [23:40] LeeJunFan: it's needed to get any ip-based communication local [23:41] LeeJunFan: there must be a route\arp trick [23:41] ok im back [23:41] kmail is pissing me off. all in a sudden it isn't using kwallet. i don't know why. kwalet is still working with other password [23:42] LeeJunFan: all I need is to tell the messages not to go to the gateway if they are sent to a specific host (even if that host is outside the subnet) [23:42] qwerdy: configure an alias on linux with a private subnet as mentioned before, turn on forwarding. Setup your windows machine with a static IP address within the private subnet, and setup nat on the linux machine. === ubuntu_ is now known as tisho [23:42] LeeJunFan: messages* = packets* === tisho is now known as tishosz [23:43] LeeJunFan: but then all communication will go through the linux, right? [23:43] Basically your linux machine will be the router with the WAN and LAN being on the same linux interface. There _might_ be problems with ICMP redirects from the linux machine, but I don't think it'll do that. if so it can be turned off. [23:43] jerry_: don't know why it can't find the filesystem - in /etc/fstab change the line we added to have user instead of default [23:43] qwerdy: yes, all comm would go thru the linux machine. [23:43] what was the command for to pull kate up again? [23:44] LeeJunFan: arrgh, I'll get a router [23:44] LeeJunFan: thanks a lot anyway!! [23:44] qwerdy: actually - come to think of it, route may work. [23:44] jerry_: kdesu kate /etc/fstab [23:44] LeeJunFan: hmm? [23:45] jerry_: in konsole hit the up arrow when you're done [23:45] then down arrow [23:46] LeeJunFan: I think I have an idea [23:46] its has default in the line but it says defaults [23:46] qwerdy: not sure about the windows route commands off the top of my head, but on linux do ip ro add [windows ip]/32 dev eth0, in windows would be something like route add [linux ip] nm 255.255.255.255 .... can't recall very well. [23:46] its has default in the line but it says defaults [23:46] i didnt see user [23:46] jerry_: then sudo mount -av and browse to /media/stuff again [23:46] LeeJunFan: why not just "route" ? [23:46] I belive the route man pages - has examples of setting the default route [23:47] jerry_: remove default and put user there === root is now known as Guest6578 [23:47] ok [23:47] :) [23:47] qwerdy: in linux? you could I suppose. I haven't used route in a long time, - forgot the syntax exactly. [23:47] hello [23:48] kubuntu is nice [23:48] after i changed it to user it said nothing was mounted [23:48] hmm [23:48] when i typed sudo mount -av [23:48] ok [23:48] qwerdy: I do a lot of advanced routing in linux with tables and such, so I use ip all the time. [23:49] jerry_: maybe unmount it first - sudo umount -v /dev/sdb1 [23:49] jerry_: then sudo mount -av [23:49] then browse [23:50] i did start whit live cd 2 mins ago and i tink i em gonna install [23:50] how is wine in kubuntu [23:50] Same as wine in about any other linux disrto. :) [23:50] sudo: unmount: command not found [23:50] ok [23:50] wine works decently well now a days.. depends on what you are running with it. [23:50] games [23:51] You may want to get the 'latest' wine from the winehq stuff. since its more up to date [23:51] ok [23:51] getdeb.net has a fresh wine I think. [23:51] and 3dmark patch it [23:51] getdeb.net has the 3dmark path [23:51] heres how i typed it sudo unmount -v /dev/sdb1 [23:51] patch [23:51] ok [23:52] sdb1 not found [23:52] i did install wine in live cd but i dont find it help mee [23:52] jerry_: umount not unmount [23:52] yeah i fixed that and it said sdb1 not found [23:53] could not find /dev/sdb1 in mtab [23:53] thats also what it said [23:53] jerry_: sorry it is sdb5 isn't it... [23:53] oh yea [23:53] yep [23:54] device is busy [23:54] umount:device is busy [23:54] LeeJunFan: HALELUYA! [23:54] how do i load ntfs drives in kubuntu [23:54] jerry_: maybe sudo umount -fv /dev/sdb5 [23:55] i just unmounted it [23:55] yahhh [23:55] :) [23:55] how do i load ntfs drives in kubuntu [23:55] no what [23:55] ubuntu_, You normally mount them you dont 'load' them [23:55] jerry_: then sudo mount -av [23:55] LeeJunFan: huh!!! [23:55] yee yee [23:55] ubuntu_, during the install - you can give them a mountpoint like /media/vistadrive and so forth. is what i normally do [23:55] saves a little time later [23:55] ill post to paste [23:55] <_2> jerry sudo fuser -ki /etc/sdb5 && sudo umount /dev/sdb5 [23:56] its a external hdd [23:56] <_2> ubuntu sudo fdisk -l [23:56] LeeJunFan: wtf!!! from the linux, the trace-route goes directly to the windows, but on the other way the tracert goes through the gateway [23:56] ok [23:56] http://paste.ubuntu.com/48175/ [23:56] is the info right? [23:57] jerry_: you might not be able to write to it yet - but can you browse to it? [23:58] I never use a external ntfs. but in theory you should be able to just access it as if it was any othe rexternal drive. permissions may be wrong however. [23:58] um yeah jerry@jerry-desktop:/media/stuff$ [23:58] or do you mean through dolphin? [23:59] qwerdy: hrm, can you pastebin the route print from windows? or at least the line with the new route? [23:59] jerry_: you just formatted it - it will be mt - /media/stuff is all you need to type [23:59] jerry_: yeh in dolphin like before [23:59] seeing if the error is gone
