| dope | leftBlinker: that kind of worked. i get just like a weird checkboardish desktop now | 01:03 |

| ninix | hi guys, i did my normal packages upgrade few days ago..... and now, my kwin don't start at startup i must run it with ALT-F2, any hint ? | 01:19 |
| DarkriftX | whats the best backup program/command? I am about to make some driver changes and want a backup incase it doesnt work (wifi drivers, they are finicky and take a while to get working once screwed up) | 01:20 |
| ninix | DarkriftX: why not make a simple image of your disk ? | 01:21 |
| felipe__ | holaaaaaaaaaa | 01:21 |
| ninix | at least, of the /. | 01:21 |
| DarkriftX | large disk, not a lot of storage | 01:21 |
| felipe__ | alguien me entiende? | 01:21 |
| ninix | / is normally small | 01:21 |
| felipe__ | how can i use my mobil in kubuntu??????????????? | 01:21 |
| ninix | and your /home is normally on another disk.. | 01:21 |
| DarkriftX | its not | 01:22 |
| DarkriftX | all on same disk | 01:22 |
| ninix | if not.... bad install :P | 01:22 |
| PantherDream | hello | 01:22 |
| felipe__ | hey | 01:22 |
| DarkriftX | default install | 01:22 |
| ninix | ok | 01:22 |
| felipe__ | heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy | 01:22 |
| vezir | i can't get any sound on kde 3.5.9 :/ | 01:22 |
| DarkriftX | there isnt any sort of "system" backup that grabs all the important stuff? | 01:23 |
| DarkriftX | my home folder will probably be safe | 01:23 |
| PantherDream | i wanna change from gnome to kde | 01:23 |
| DarkriftX | !info kubuntu-* | 01:23 |
| ninix | PantherDream: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 01:23 |
| DarkriftX | yeah, thats it | 01:23 |
| ninix | DarkriftX: yeah... make an image of your / :) | 01:24 |
| DarkriftX | ok | 01:24 |
| ninix | there isn't a LIST of important stuff.... that's no sense. | 01:24 |
| ninix | if your system work well now..... then all the / is important. | 01:24 |
| PantherDream | ninix, i've done that, i can log into KDE, but i'm having troubles making it usable | 01:24 |
| DarkriftX | im still a bit new to file structure so wasnt sure | 01:24 |
| ninix | PantherDream: what do you mean by "usable" | 01:24 |
| ninix | DarkriftX: np | 01:25 |
| DarkriftX | in windows if you are doing a driver update, theres no need to backup program files folder, so i wasnt sure if there was something close here | 01:25 |
| DarkriftX | so ill do / minus home | 01:25 |
| ninix | DarkriftX: the best way is, when you install create a partition for / and another one for /home, (and if you want, one for /usr). after that, make a backup of / is very easy and not so big | 01:26 |
| PantherDream | first of all, i dont like the default file explorer, nautilus was way nicer, also, compiz is gone and my themes don't show up anymore | 01:26 |
| ninix | konqueror is a way nicer, in my opinion, but... this can be easily changed in the kde control. | 01:26 |
| ninix | for compiz, search a tutorial "kde + compiz" you'll find what to settup. | 01:27 |
| PantherDream | so it is possible to use compiz in KDE just like in Gnome? | 01:27 |
| ninix | off course, yes. i've already used it. | 01:28 |
| PantherDream | how about my themes? | 01:28 |
| ninix | themes ? | 01:28 |
| DarkriftX | PantherDream, use konqueror, its better then dolphin | 01:28 |
| ninix | if you set a theme in gnome..... that's completly different from a kde theme | 01:29 |
| PantherDream | but can't i use the same ones? | 01:29 |
| ninix | no. search a new theme at kde-looks.org | 01:31 |
| PantherDream | ok... | 01:31 |
| ninix | You need to know..... gnome and kde are TWO separate desktop environnement | 01:31 |
| ninix | anyone know about my kwin probleme ? | 01:32 |
| PantherDream | i know, and most of my favorite linux apps (Amarok, Kopete, etc) are built for KDE that's why i wanna change | 01:32 |
| ninix | yeah, kde is a very great desktop...... made with a wonderful framework: QT. | 01:32 |
| PantherDream | well, i've never really tried it before, but the applications made for it are great, so it can't be bad | 01:33 |
| PantherDream | except for the obvious ones, how can i tell if a app that i've installed is meant for KDE or Gnome? | 01:37 |
| DarkriftX | is keep a decent automated backup system? | 01:37 |
| DarkriftX | if i tell it to backup / (exclude /home/) every 3 days, would that be reliable and not too system intensive | 01:37 |
| ninix | DarkriftX: i suggest you to look this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/search?PHPSESSID=158a8b4dc6e8b3597ca3b6bf4353a305&cx=017338271194360913207%3Avuzb4jxd_2m&cof=FORID%3A11&q=backup&sa=Search#1414 | 01:38 |
| DarkriftX | looking | 01:38 |
| ninix | PantherDream: in fact, a program is simply linked to the GUI library. If you do a simple `ldd /usr/bin/amarok` you will see the link to libQt*.so. that's means that the library use QT. | 01:39 |
| ninix | otherwise... an application can link to libgtk.. or something like that. | 01:40 |
| ninix | and there is no problem to use application made for KDE in gnome, and vice-versa. I use some gtk application here. | 01:41 |

| Kevin_ | Hello. I've got a headless server set up running Hardy Server Edition that I want to configure with remote resumable KDE sessions... I'm currently using X forwarding to accomplish the remote part of this but I don't know how to make sessions resumable. Help appreciated :). | 02:35 |
| dr_willis | Not sure thats even possible. depending on what you mean by resumeable | 02:37 |
| fiyawerx | Kevin_: freenx | 02:38 |
| dr_willis | You could use vnc/vncserver and have ' desktops' that are persistant. and dont 'close' when the user closes the vncclient tool | 02:38 |
| dr_willis | freenx may also do that. Ive never managetd to get freenx working | 02:38 |
| fiyawerx | freenx/nxclient will do it | 02:38 |
| fiyawerx | i usually just download the .deb's and install manually for the real version, not freenx | 02:38 |
| Kevin_ | fiyawerx, freenx/nxclient will allow me to use KDE with X tunneled over ssh? | 02:38 |
| fiyawerx | nomachine has a "free" server that allows I think up to 2 simultaneous connections | 02:38 |
| dr_willis | Did they finally get freenx clients for windows? | 02:38 |
| dr_willis | been ages since i last looked at freenx | 02:38 |
| fiyawerx | dr_willis: you could always use nx's real client to connect to freenx server, as long as i've been using it they've had windows clients yeah | 02:39 |
| fiyawerx | and Kevin_: it does use ssh | 02:39 |
| dr_willis | I tend to use 'xming' on the windows machines to get apps forwareded.. or vnc. | 02:39 |
| fiyawerx | and runs quite a bit faster than any other remote desktop type software i've used | 02:39 |
| Kevin_ | fiyawerx, ok because I've tried VNC and it is just abysmally slow.... thanks :D | 02:39 |
| dr_willis | with vnc. i find it pays to use a very minimal desktop. and cut down the # of fancy stuff | 02:40 |
| dr_willis | ive only used it on a local lan. so i dident have to worry about ssh tunnles with vnc either. | 02:40 |
| dr_willis | I do hear freenx is much faster. | 02:40 |
| faileas | it is | 02:41 |
| dr_willis | of course with xming, im just displaying a single program/window from the linux box.. not the whole desktop. Its very useable on my local lan. | 02:41 |
| dr_willis | but not a good idea for over the internet. withoug some ssh tossed in | 02:41 |
| * faileas notes it also works decently over the net, with home lines | 02:41 | |
| Kevin_ | fiyawerx, sorry I forgot to clarify, by resumable I mean that I can close the connection on my computer without causing all of my running programs to die | 02:43 |
| dr_willis | I belive the proper term is 'persistant' :) at least ive heard it called that. | 02:43 |
| Kevin_ | dr_willis, yes I think you are correct | 02:44 |
| darakian | anyone here know why my laptop's internal speakers would be enabled while I have speakers connected via the audio out? | 02:45 |
| darakian | and these speakers are outputting sound... | 02:45 |
| dr_willis | I know vnc can do that.. depending on how you start the vncserver. fiyawerx sort of suggested that freenx can do it also.. so try them both. :) | 02:45 |

| atrus42 | well I have an ATI card | 04:04 |
| sumo_su | ubuntu indstead of kubuntu | 04:04 |
| atrus42 | and I don't know if I just don't have all of the drivers installed correctly | 04:05 |
| sumo_su | i have an ati card too | 04:05 |
| atrus42 | or xorg just isn't configured correctly | 04:05 |
| atrus42 | but I can't seem to get a display other than 800X600 | 04:05 |
| sumo_su | hmm i have an ati1950pro i think... i just have to double reboot after a fresh install | 04:06 |
| atrus42 | I have an older AMD 64 bit system | 04:06 |
| atrus42 | so I have an AGP version of the 9250 | 04:06 |
| atrus42 | I had it working fine | 04:06 |
| sumo_su | hmm what did you do that could have messed with the xorg.conf? | 04:07 |
| atrus42 | but I had thought I had fixed my 6600GT so I uninstalled the ATI stuff and installed the nvidia stuff | 04:07 |
| atrus42 | but the nvidia card was still bad so I tried to uninstall the nvidia stuff and reinstall the ATI stuff | 04:07 |
| atrus42 | but it doesn't seem to want to go | 04:07 |
| atrus42 | when I run the fglrxinfo command it comes up with vesa (is that the right one?) instead of ATI | 04:08 |
| sumo_su | thats a bit over my head buy in my experience thats an improper xorg.conf | 04:09 |
| sumo_su | but i dont want to break your system any further.... so i give up | 04:09 |

| sumo_su | Treppid: yea | 04:21 |
| sumo_su | Treppid: you either select one master and one slave by jumper or you put both on cable select | 04:22 |
| Treppid | cable select ok thats probably the way ill go thx lots | 04:22 |
| sumo_su | Treppid: all is doen by jumper. some cables dont support cable select | 04:22 |

| sumo_su | Treppid: you just have to try. you cant break anything | 04:23 |
| sumo_su | Treppid: modern cables (past 2000) will support cable select and thats the way to go | 04:23 |
| Treppid | this is a very old puter so one will have tobe slave, | 04:23 |
| sumo_su | Treppid: if its a very old comp just jumper one driver to master and the other to slave and youre fine | 04:24 |

| Treppid | as far as can't break anything, I found a way lol!, never touched jumpers & tried adding the other HD, some how my dvd burner fried?, must have been "murphy's-law:" that got me haha! | 04:26 |
| sumo_su | what sort of hardware are you plugging in? | 04:27 |
| sumo_su | you shouldnt be able to fry hardware by setting the jumpers wrong | 04:28 |
| atrus42 | unless you had the computer on while plugging the hardware in | 04:29 |
| Treppid | one is a 80 gig 7200 rpm drive, other an older IBM 40 gig 7200 rpm drive, maybe their not really both 7200? or different voltage?, oh well | 04:29 |
| sumo_su | yea that fries old computers and that is why sata and usb are so "modern":) | 04:30 |
| atrus42 | I still am nervous about plugging my sata drives in while the computer is on | 04:30 |
| atrus42 | kinda feels like playing russian roulette | 04:31 |
| sumo_su | i never went thru that adventure:) | 04:31 |
| sumo_su | but i am re-overclocking mine atm:) | 04:31 |
| atrus42 | I only did it because my HD had an issue | 04:31 |
| atrus42 | and I couldn't get the computer to boot with it in | 04:31 |
| atrus42 | so I figured I'd boot up and then plug it in and see if I could pull the stuff off | 04:31 |
| Treppid | ok guess ill just make due with the 80 gig, & add the dvd rom, till I can buy just one burner = ) | 04:31 |
| sumo_su | well if you can switch the comp off you switch it off:) | 04:32 |
| sumo_su | youre not running a 24/7 server (which is what the sata standard was designed for too) | 04:32 |
| atrus42 | well I don't often uninstall my hard drives | 04:32 |
| sumo_su | same here:) | 04:33 |
| sumo_su | hardest trick i ever pulled was to take a bios chip out of a running computer, flash it, and put it in mine:) | 04:33 |
| sumo_su | worked:)))) | 04:34 |
| atrus42 | wow...nice | 04:34 |
| sumo_su | 1 broken computer? noooo! i set everything on red! | 04:34 |
| sumo_su | i won 2 fixed computers:) | 04:34 |
| atrus42 | excellent | 04:35 |
| sumo_su | could have been 2 broken ones;)) | 04:35 |
| atrus42 | indeed | 04:35 |
| sumo_su | you dont have to do that today.. unPLUG the computer and the bios is more careful | 04:36 |
| sumo_su | i really have to shut up but i'm overclocking instead of playing poker tonight | 04:37 |
| Treppid | I wish I knew how to over clock mine, course the processer speed says locked, not that into dos teckie typing hehe, if thats what it takes? | 04:38 |
| sumo_su | overclocking is handicraft:) | 04:38 |
| atrus42 | depends on your mobo..I think usually it is done in the bios isn't it? | 04:38 |
| sumo_su | dont overclock notebooks | 04:38 |
| CoJaBo-Eee | lol | 04:38 |
| damian | Argentina????????? | 04:39 |
| damian | Alguien?? | 04:39 |
| sumo_su | atrus42: right. i bought my comp in parts and assembled them... design was to OC | 04:39 |
| Treppid | well considering these 2 puters I have are "grampas" to modern ones, I will risk frying em hehe | 04:39 |
| sumo_su | !es|damian | 04:40 |
| === ty is now known as tyflyy | ||
| atrus42 | I built mine too, but I don't overclock | 04:40 |
| atrus42 | I think the one I am on now has a windows utility that would let me do it...but...meh | 04:40 |
| atrus42 | maybe I'd be more into it if I actually had done it once or twice and saw a huge speed jump | 04:41 |
| sumo_su | i am willing to overvolt now:) | 04:41 |
| sumo_su | make the thing die:) | 04:41 |

| Jimmmmy1 | Hey guys ! Im currently using Kubuntu and im thinking of updating to the next Ubuntu Version.... Is it faster better or anything or should i just stick to the version that im using now ? | 04:41 |
| atrus42 | I am so jealous newegg had a huge jump in proc for sale for 25 bucks, I missed it because I had just moved and didn't have net access yet | 04:42 |
| sumo_su | Treppid: there's traffic here now... we should just shut up with our off topic talk | 04:42 |
| Treppid | ya buntu chat again | 04:42 |
| atrus42 | maybe I should repeat my query | 04:42 |
| Jimmmmy1 | ah dont mind me guys just a quick question and then im off | 04:42 |
| atrus42 | I guess that would depend which version of kubuntu you are running | 04:43 |
| Jimmmmy1 | 7.10 | 04:43 |
| Treppid | its just a different desktop, zero difference, tho I prefer the look of KDE, = ) | 04:43 |
| Jimmmmy1 | ah ok ! its only cause im having a bit of trouble with this version i thought that the new ubuntu would have less bugs in it | 04:44 |
| atrus42 | what are you talking about treppid? there are difference between 7.10 and 8.04 | 04:45 |
| Treppid | yes was talkin bout 8.04 kubuntu & 8.04 ubuntu | 04:45 |
| Treppid | jimmmy!, hope ya see that b4 ya left! | 04:46 |
| Jimmmmy1 | ahh still here | 04:47 |
| Jimmmmy1 | i didnt know there was a kubuntu 8.04 | 04:47 |
| atrus42 | there isn't really a difference in speed but there are additional features in 8.04 VS 7.10 | 04:47 |
| Jimmmmy1 | ill dload that 1 i guess | 04:47 |
| lizzie | I have a PC that is connected to a LAN, and also has a wireless card that is currently not being used in a productive way. How can I make the computer act as a WAP so I can connect my laptop? | 04:47 |
| lizzie | (a link to an online guide would be great) | 04:47 |
| Treppid | k, so ya mega diff, I thought the new graphics card made my system better haha!, it was switching from 7.10 to 8.04 kubuntu, wow amazed me hehe | 04:48 |
| austin | is anyone on? | 04:49 |
| Jimmmmy1 | actually is there a way i can just update 7.10 to 8.04 without dloading a new cd ? | 04:49 |
| atrus42 | yes...you can do it in the OS | 04:50 |
| atrus42 | hang on | 04:50 |
| Jimmmmy1 | ah sweet | 04:50 |
| atrus42 | http://www.ubuntugeek.com/upgrade-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon-to-ubuntu-804-lts-hardy-heron.html | 04:50 |
| Jimmmmy1 | Great ill go and have a play with that now | 04:50 |
| Jimmmmy1 | cheers mate | 04:50 |
| Jimmmmy1 | wait... thats ubuntu, does it matter ? | 04:51 |
| atrus42 | not really..some of the specifics may be different, but that is the guide I used | 04:52 |
| Jimmmmy1 | ok sweet | 04:52 |
| Treppid | true, some like gnome desktop some like kde, sometimes ya feel like a nut, sometimes ya don't lol | 04:53 |
| Jimmmmy1 | Is update manager same as adept manager ? | 04:55 |
| atrus42 | not the same, two seperate programs, but the perform essentially the same function | 04:57 |
| atrus42 | at least as far as I understand it | 04:57 |
| Jimmmmy1 | might be easier if i just dload the new version | 04:57 |
| atrus42 | you'll be fine | 04:58 |
| Jimmmmy1 | unless i click full upgrate | 04:58 |
| Treppid | srry I'm not sure bout that one, I found 5 ways on Intrepid so far to install software, 2 ior 3 ways of updateing, hope they narrow it down a bit hehe | 04:58 |
| Treppid | sumo-super tech!, you still here? have one tech question, | 05:00 |
| faileas | Treppid: they are all based on dpkg everything is just a front end ;p | 05:01 |
| josh | where do you get in to the other rooms? | 05:02 |
| josh | or is this just for linux? | 05:02 |
| Treppid | is it possible to change or add an adapter, to fit a graphics card into a improper slot on mobo? last hardware question promise ; ) | 05:04 |
| Treppid | ty faileas too ; ) | 05:05 |

| surgy | hello | 06:08 |
| surgy | why isnt my windows installation on sda2 not showing up in my grub boot list"? and how can i fix this? | 06:09 |
| favro | !grub | 06:09 |
| surgy | !grub | 06:10 |
| surgy | ubotu is broken? | 06:10 |
| favro | !bot | 06:12 |
| favro | seems so | 06:12 |
| surgy | its listed as sda5 | 06:12 |
| surgy | ... | 06:13 |
| surgy | can you walk me through the commands? | 06:13 |
| surgy | i just need to edit grub.conf right? or similer? | 06:13 |
| favro | surgy: kdesu kate /boot/grub/menu.lst - will let you edit the file | 06:18 |
| surgy | what should be there to make windows boot? | 06:19 |
| favro | surgy: I'll paste what I use and you can change that to suit your system - one min | 06:21 |
| surgy | favro: thanks man | 06:21 |
| favro | surgy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/49182/ - you'll need to change the (hd0,0) part | 06:23 |
| surgy | favro: yeah i have a question about that, my grub.lst says buntu is installed on hd0,6..... that doesnt make since to me since kubuntu says that its partition is called sda7 and my windows part is called sda5 | 06:24 |
| surgy | so how do i know what numbers to put there? | 06:25 |
| favro | surgy: kubuntu counts from one - grub counts from zero - so take one off what kubuntu calls it - so (sd0,5) should work | 06:25 |
| surgy | but grub is calling it hd0,6 so i need to call it hdo5 ? | 06:27 |
| surgy | hd0,5 | 06:27 |
| surgy | ill just try it and see | 06:28 |
| surgy | apparently hd0,5 is an invalid device | 06:31 |
| surgy | kubuntu is on hd0,6 so maybe i should try hd0,7 ? | 06:32 |
| surgy | sorry about that | 06:35 |
| surgy | yeah hd0,4 and hd0,6 both seam to be "invalid devices" | 06:35 |
| surgy | its two different partitions on the same hdd | 06:36 |

| surgy | disks and filesystems shows the partition as sda5 | 06:38 |
| noaXess | good morning | 06:38 |
| Colonel_Panic | it ought to be an FAT32 or an NTFS partition | 06:38 |

| Colonel_Panic | noaXess: http://i38.tinypic.com/qn7hgn.png | 06:50 |
| surgy | leftBlinker: is that the one i need to be booting into to get into windows? | 06:50 |
| noaXess | Colonel_Panic: it seams that no capture control is available .. hm.. | 06:51 |
| Colonel_Panic | Well, I also have a shitty onboard sound system... | 06:51 |
| leftBlinker | donno, that's what I've got on my menu.lst, if you installed windows first I think it'd be that partition | 06:52 |
| Colonel_Panic | Is there maybe a setting I can use to enable capture with my SB Live! Value? | 06:52 |
| surgy | ok let me try that then | 06:52 |
| surgy | brb if it doesnt work wish me luck :) | 06:52 |
| leftBlinker | gl | 06:52 |
| Colonel_Panic | or failing that, use the mobo's sound system for input? | 06:52 |
| Colonel_Panic | I know this sound card works under Windows. I used to use it in a Windows box. | 06:53 |
| noaXess | Colonel_Panic: do a sudo lspci -vvv > lspci.log and look for you audio device... | 06:54 |
| noaXess | your ^ | 06:54 |
| Colonel_Panic | what does that command do? (I like to understand the tyheings I type into the command shell) | 06:55 |
| Colonel_Panic | ... *the things* | 06:55 |
| favro | if there is two audio cards the onboard needs to be disabled in the bios afaik | 06:55 |
| Colonel_Panic | I don't think that's possible | 06:56 |
| Colonel_Panic | with my BIOS | 06:56 |
| Colonel_Panic | however, I did change a congiguration file (don't remember which one) to stop Linux from enabling it | 06:57 |
| leftBlinker | the ntldr thing at least | 06:57 |
| Colonel_Panic | damn, my typing sucks this evening | 06:57 |
| Colonel_Panic | byw, the sudo lspci -vvv > lspci.log returned *nothing* | 06:57 |
| noaXess | Colonel_Panic: but you have now a file named lspci.log :) | 06:58 |
| noaXess | open it and search for your audio device | 06:58 |
| noaXess | !lspci | 06:58 |

| jeeb_ | hello all. how can i install rpm from mandriva to ubuntu? | 10:25 |
| emma_ | i was hoping to do an update off the internet | 10:25 |
| jeeb_ | kookoo | 10:28 |
| hischild | Good morning. I would like to know where i would go to configure KDE so it no longer shows all applications on the taskbar, but instead only show those that are on the current desktop. | 10:31 |
| favro | !intrepid | emma_ | 10:31 |
| ubottu | emma_: Alpha Software: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for K/ubuntu 8.10, due October 2008 - #ubuntu+1 for discussion.

| jussi01 | _LiNuX_: you use gnome? | 10:56 |
| _LiNuX_ | yes.. | 10:56 |
| jussi01 | _LiNuX_: please head on over to #ubuntu | 10:56 |
| jussi01 | This is the channel for kubuntu - users of kde | 10:57 |
| hischild | So is it possible to have apps only show their corresponding entry on the taskbar, only on the desktop they are on? | 11:00 |
| _LiNuX_ | whats the differend between ubuntu and kubuntu? | 11:00 |
| hischild | _LiNuX_, kubuntu uses kde, ubuntu uses gnome. | 11:00 |
| jussi01 | hischild: yes | 11:01 |
| jussi01 | rightclick the taskbar, settings irrc | 11:01 |
| hischild | jussi01, thank you. I found it | 11:02 |
| _LiNuX_ | what is best>? | 11:02 |
| jussi01 | !best | 11:02 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 11:02 |
| hischild | _LiNuX_, depends on personal choice. | 11:02 |
| jussi01 | hischild: no probs | 11:02 |
| hischild | jussi01, would you by chance know how the current compiz support is with kde? | 11:02 |
| jussi01 | hischild: still average - new kwin is nice, cube comes in Kde 4.2 | 11:03 |
| jussi01 | hischild: kde4 has its own desktop effects, so nobody is really working on compiz integration | 11:03 |
| hischild | jussi01, would you please repeat that? my graphics card decided to reboot. | 11:05 |
| jussi01 | [13:03:05] <jussi01> hischild: still average - new kwin is nice, cube comes in Kde 4.2 | 11:05 |
| jussi01 | [13:03:48] <jussi01> hischild: kde4 has its own desktop effects, so nobody is really working on compiz integration | 11:05 |
| hischild | jussi01, i see. And how would i enable / activate these desktop effects? I used gnome before yet it crashes (specifically just gnome, all other apps work) so i'm going to try KDE. | 11:06 |
| jussi01 | hischild: on kde4? | 11:07 |
| hischild | jussi01, dunno, let me check | 11:07 |
| hischild | jussi01, yes, aptitude shows kde being at version 4 | 11:08 |
| emilsedgh | System Settings->Desktop->Desktop Effects | 11:08 |
| jussi01 | hischild: if you are on kde4, please head over to #kubuntu-kde4 | 11:08 |
| hischild | jussi01, oh wait, 4.1 is released? Then i am probably mistaken in my version. | 11:09 |
| hischild | jussi01, ah, the help shows me the correct version number. 3.5.10 is the correct one? | 11:10 |
| jussi01 | hischild: sounds right | 11:11 |
| hischild | emilsedgh, by going there it says i have to install the compiz engine, however it should already be there from my gnome installation. | 11:11 |
| emilsedgh | hischild: compiz? kde4 has no intergration with compiz | 11:12 |
| hischild | emilsedgh, read above please. I was mistaken in my version number. | 11:12 |
| jussi01 | hischild: try just doing alt+f2 and: compiz --replace | 11:13 |
| emilsedgh | hischild: you are probably on kde3 | 11:13 |
| hischild | its dinner time. Thanks anyway :-) | 11:13 |

| ghostcube | its just shit | 14:26 |
| Pici | ghostcube: The profanity isn't needed. | 14:26 |

| ghostcube | and tell them about envy | 14:26 |
| ghostcube | :) | 14:26 |
| ghostcube | better dont do so we have the trouble in support not u here | 14:26 |
| ghostcube | so i say envy !! NO!!! | 14:27 |
| ghostcube | thtas it | 14:27 |
| Pici | And the -ng version is acceptable enough to be included in the repos. I'd personally use it as a last resort if the restricted drivers fail to work. | 14:27 |
| ghostcube | just install manually no need for script | 14:27 |
| ghostcube | thtas fact | 14:27 |
| JuJuBee | How do I install restricted drivers? | 14:28 |
| Pici | Installing manually causes issues with kernel upgrades. | 14:28 |
| ghostcube | Pici: ever used envy and tried to change anything or u got a destroyed glx ? | 14:28 |
| Pici | JuJuBee: Run jockey-kde | 14:28 |
| ghostcube | so join compiz-fusion and just look | 14:28 |
| ghostcube | not more | 14:28 |
| ghostcube | u will see the probs then | 14:29 |
| JuJuBee | Pici : no proprietary drivers in use. | 14:29 |
| Pici | JuJuBee: Anything listed as being available? | 14:29 |
| JuJuBee | Pici : I tried DL'ing them from ATI and installing, but that did not fix the problem. | 14:30 |
| JuJuBee | No... | 14:30 |
| Pici | JuJuBee: How new is your card? | 14:30 |
| JuJuBee | Old... 9600 Mobility | 14:30 |
| JuJuBee | Laptop | 14:30 |
| ghostcube | so no need for the fglrx | 14:30 |
| ghostcube | just try the ati driver from xorg | 14:30 |
| ghostcube | much faster on that card | 14:31 |
| JuJuBee | are you saying dl from xorg or in repo's? | 14:31 |
| ghostcube | just change in xorg.conf to ati | 14:31 |
| ghostcube | its shiped by xorg | 14:31 |

| surgy | hello | 16:05 |
| surgy | can someone please tell me how to figure out a particular partition id ? IE: (HD0,1) | 16:05 |
| s0101 | Hi | 16:07 |
| surgy | anyone ? | 16:08 |
| s0101 | when i try to update my system i recive a error message that the index is old | 16:08 |
| genii | surgy: Something like: grub hd0,0=/dev/sda1 hd0,1=/dev/sda2 hd1,0=/dev/sdb1 hd2,2=/dev/sdc3 | 16:10 |
| s0101 | http://pastebin.com/m56319276 | 16:11 |
| surgy | genii: umm yeah, but how would i figure out which hd0,x corresponds with what sda? | 16:11 |
| genii | s0101: Are you doing something like: sudo apt-get update | 16:11 |
| s0101 | the first time i had this problem was after i installed ie4 in wine to get active x towork and then i changed someting in the update file | 16:11 |
| genii | surgy: hd0,0=sda1 hd0,1=sda2 hd0,2=sda3 hd0,3=sda4 and so on. Notice the trend in numbering | 16:12 |
| s0101 | i have tryed all the ways to update | 16:12 |
| s0101 | same everywere | 16:12 |
| surgy | ok fdisk -l shows that my ntfs partition is on sda5 so therefor it should be partition hd0,4 for grub right? | 16:13 |
| genii | surgy: Yes | 16:14 |
| surgy | ok let me see if i can boot into that | 16:14 |
| surgy | brb if it doesnt work | 16:14 |
| genii | s0101: Since it seems to be a wine/ie4 complication which caused this, perhaps ask them in #winehq about it | 16:14 |
| s0101 | some index files could not be dowloaded, they have been ignored or not be able to be connected due to network problem, an older version of the index will be used if its possible if not it will be ignred | 16:14 |
| s0101 | translated from swedish | 16:15 |
| s0101 | ignored | 16:15 |
| Pici | s0101: Are you on irc from the same computer that is having an issue? | 16:15 |
| Pici | s0101: Oh... nevermind. I see the issue | 16:16 |
| s0101 | it tells me to check the adress in the storage (yes i am on the same computer my network is working perfekt) | 16:16 |

| surgy | when i enter the command fdisk -l i receave this (http://pastebin.com/m3e30aebe) and this is my grub/menu.lst (http://pastebin.com/m21503a61))) can someone help me make it so that i can boot into my windows partition? | 16:41 |
| genii | surgy: Your windows install was on "Drive D:" or "Drive C:" ? Because you have 2 windows partitions there, a fat32 and an ntfs | 16:44 |
| rob | hello everybody | 16:44 |
| surgy | genii well i dont know where the fat32 part came from but the biggest partition is where winxp is | 16:44 |
| rob | anybody know how to fix this? The APT Database could not be opened! This may be caused by incorrect APT configuration or some similar problem. Try running apt-setup and apt-get update in terminal and see if it helps to resolve the problem. | 16:45 |
| rob | apt-setup or apt-get update doesn't work | 16:46 |
| ahox | rob, it actually should tell you in the error message what to run | 16:46 |
| ahox | something like dpkg --reconfigure | 16:46 |
| genii | surgy: the 0,4 should be right for sda5. Have you tried to boot into the other one? 0,3 or so | 16:46 |
| surgy | genii: i have tried 0,0 through 0,7 | 16:47 |
| mifauna | hello | 16:47 |
| surgy | genii: i was told that im having this problem becuase my swap is at the beginning of my harddrive instead of at the end | 16:47 |
| ahox | rob: sry, try dpkg-reconfigure -a\] | 16:47 |
| genii | surgy: I think there may be some issue of loading an os from an extended partition | 16:47 |
| ahox | rob: sry, try dpkg-reconfigure -a | 16:47 |
| genii | surgy: It should not matter at all where the swap is | 16:48 |
| surgy | genii: i didnt think sop | 16:48 |
| surgy | so* | 16:48 |
| surgy | genii: so how do i fix my windows? | 16:48 |
| genii | surgy: Did you move the wondows partition from some other place? | 16:49 |
| surgy | no | 16:49 |
| genii | wondows->windows | 16:49 |
| surgy | genii: i started with a 500 gb hdd, i then split it for win2k and then install winxp on the other part and have recently replaced win2k with kubuntu | 16:49 |
| rob | heres what it gives me: rob@ubuntu:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a | 16:50 |

| genii | surgy: What exact message you get (possibly from Grub) when trying 0,4 ? | 16:52 |
| genii | rob: Your /var partition is full | 16:52 |
| surgy | genii: mind if i go get that for you reasl quick? | 16:52 |
| genii | surgy: Sure, I'm here all day | 16:53 |
| cosmofield | Hi, how do I use visudo? I can access the sudoers file as root but I can't insert any text :| | 16:53 |
| surgy | brb | 16:53 |
| rob | ok sorry about the flooding | 16:53 |
| rob | so the /var is full? is there anyway i can increase size of it? | 16:54 |
| rob | this kubuntu 8.04 that I am running is is installed by wubi and is installed into a file in windows xp. | 16:56 |
| surgy | genii: the error message when trying to boot from (hd0,4) is as follows: "Error 12: invalid device requested" | 16:57 |
| === jacob_ is now known as faddat1 | ||
| genii | rob: I'm not familiar with the inner workings of Wubi. There must be some way to increase the size of it however. | 16:59 |
| genii | surgy: OK | 16:59 |
| faddat1 | I need to make a launcher menu for a computer designed for the elderly. Is there a launcher application in KDE that I can configure to launch 4 applications, or should I make one on my own? | 16:59 |
| faddat1 | basically I need to have a menu that allows users to launch applications by pressing the 1-9 keys, for example, press 1 to check your e-mail, press 2 to use the Internet, etc.... | 17:00 |
| faddat1 | brb (toilet... feel free to PM me or e-mail me at faddat@gmail.com) | 17:01 |
| genii | surgy: What says it when using 0,1 ? | 17:02 |
| surgy | lol let me check :) | 17:03 |

| surgy | Pu7o: you can do that in kde 3 | 17:10 |
| genii | surgy: The "Partition table entries are not in disk order" in your pastebin of fdisk result seems interesting but not sure it is related | 17:10 |
| Pu7o | ...which is why I'm asking for KDE 4 | 17:10 |
| Tm_T | Pu7o: try #kubuntu-kde4 | 17:10 |
| Pu7o | thanks | 17:10 |
| surgy | genii: you think there might be some credit in what that one guy was saying about my swap being at the begging of my hdd? | 17:11 |
| genii | surgy: I still think it's unlikely that would cause any grief. I've put swap at beginning many times without incident | 17:12 |
| surgy | genii: ok | 17:12 |

| genii | surgy: I think the problem is thus: sda2 contins all the extended partitions of sda5 sda6 sda7. So in this scenario sda2 is what has the OSes on it. So grub wants hd0,1 for sda2. But within sda2 on the secand section of it is where the actual OS you want is. But there is not really a way to specify to Grub hd0,1,a or such | 17:36 |
| surgy | something like map (sda2) (hd0,1) perhaps? | 17:37 |
| surgy | BluesKaj: you might also have a look at this http://pastebin.com/m133c6296 | 17:38 |
| genii | surgy: I believe map is just to change the order of drives in a software based way from in grub, not to sub-map partitons onto an existing partition | 17:39 |

| xbxbxb | does hotplugging an USB device work even before I login and KDE starts? that is, does udev create block devices for it in /dev before I login with my user name? | 19:21 |
| genii | xbxbxb: iDEALLY THATS HOW IT WORKS, YES | 19:33 |
| genii | Bah capslock | 19:33 |
| xbxbxb | genii: thanks | 19:33 |
| genii | np | 19:34 |
| xbxbxb | is there a reason you said 'ideally'? :) doesn't it work in "real life"? | 19:34 |
| genii | xbxbxb: Some usb devices don't always recognise properly if plugged in during poweron/bootup but only if plugged in afterwards | 19:36 |
| xbxbxb | genii: hmm I see... to give a little more context, I'd like to share my home folder with two PCs I have that both run (k)ubuntu. And I want to share it on an external USB harddrive that is encrypted. The only way to get it work so far is to login as root before and decrypt & mount the drive, then login with my normal user name. | 19:38 |
| xbxbxb | Do you have a better approach? | 19:38 |
| xbxbxb | a lot of people told me that it's not a problem to share a home folder in that way, but the root-logging in is getting on my nerves | 19:39 |

| RichardBH | hi | 20:04 |
| RichardBH | i uninstalled a load of kde4 stuff to save space (anything with kde4 in the package name) but now none of my windows in kde3 have a title bar? | 20:05 |
| RichardBH | is there an easy way to fix this? | 20:06 |
| genii | xbxbxb: It was on a networked drive and when attempting to run both (from different boxes) would cause problems of file locking, especially on firefox. Also when switching between two linuxes on same box having a shared swap area was causing other probs especially when not clean shutting down | 20:08 |
| genii | Apologies on lag, work is requiring me here often | 20:08 |
| genii | RichardBH: Perhaps you accidentally removed kdelibs4 which is actually for kde3 and not kde4 (kdelibs5 is for kde4) | 20:09 |
| RichardBH | genii: that sounds horribly familiar | 20:09 |
| RichardBH | oh no, it says its installed | 20:09 |
| genii | RichardBH: You could sort of "refresh" the regular kde3 install by something like sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop | 20:11 |
| genii | RichardBH: So that if anything got wiped out accidentally it *should* reinstall those parts | 20:11 |
| RichardBH | ah, thankyou | 20:12 |
| RichardBH | i htought something like that might work, but I wasnt sure which package needed reinstalling | 20:12 |
| RichardBH | lets try - brb | 20:13 |
| genii | RichardBH: Also, in Compiz this sometimes happens of the missing maximize/minimize/close bar but in that case is usually the window decorator neds reloading | 20:13 |
| xbxbxb | genii: no reason to apologize, work has priority. and thanks for your input. | 20:14 |
| xbxbxb | genii: so the problems only came up when running both at the same time? | 20:14 |
| genii | xbxbxb: Yes, in that case. Except that I also mistakenly thought having them use same swap partition would be OK which it wasn't | 20:14 |
| genii | (when installed on same box) | 20:15 |
| RichardBH | no luck :( | 20:15 |
| xbxbxb | oh ok, genii | 20:16 |
| genii | RichardBH: Also, in Compiz this sometimes happens of the missing maximize/minimize/close bar but in that case is usually the window decorator neds reloading | 20:16 |
| andriijas | how do i make an application launch upon login on kde? | 20:16 |
| RichardBH | genii - i can use kwin --replace to give me my bars back | 20:16 |
| RichardBH | but i have to do it everytime i login | 20:17 |
| genii | RichardBH: It's a Compiz issue then | 20:17 |
| xbxbxb | genii: I'm using compiz and I noticed that, too. what do I have to do to get my title bar back? | 20:17 |
| dragon200 | how do yo do? | 20:18 |
| RichardBH | genii - bearing in mind i dont have compiz, how can i stop it trying to be there? | 20:18 |
| genii | For the Compiz no title bar thing I usually do: alt-f2 kde-window-decorator --replace <- RichardBH and xbxbxb | 20:18 |
| xbxbxb | thanks | 20:19 |
| stefan__ | heyho, i've installed the package kubuntu-desktop and when i start a session with KDE, ther comes the this failure: "Call to lnuser Temp failed (temporary directories full?) Check your installation." what ist the problem? | 20:19 |
| genii | RichardBH: If you don't want it to load compiz, make sure kwin is the window manager and that session saving is on, then do a logoff. Then logon again and set session saving off and it will always come up to how you left it when you exited the time it was set to save your settings. | 20:20 |
| genii | stefan__: That indicates you don't have permissions to read or write in your home directory.Did you chmod or chown something there recently?? | 20:23 |
| === Tecumseh- is now known as Tecumseh | ||
| stefan__ | sorry my english is not so good, i dont understand your question totaly | 20:25 |
| RichardBH | genii - i installed compiz again, enabled the desktop effects and then disabled them and its working now - thanks | 20:26 |
| genii | stefan__: If for instance the user name you use to login is "fred" then the directory /home/fred and all it's contents should belong to fred | 20:31 |
| stefan__ | jear, that is so | 20:32 |
| genii | stefan__: eg: my username is "user" so when I do command: ls -l ~ I get this result: http://pastebin.com/m1767bd54 | 20:34 |

| Tm_T | wrrooooom hi PhilRod | 20:37 |

| MetaMorfoziS | i'm on khardy, and the usermanagement disappeared from kcontrol | 20:38 |
| MetaMorfoziS | how can i get it back? | 20:39 |
| genii | stefan__: I still believe it may be some item or file further down in the directory structure of your home directory | 20:44 |
| genii | (which is not owned by you) | 20:44 |
| sumo_su | hmmm is it normal that my main linux partition (the one i'm using) is not mounted in the fstab? | 20:44 |
| genii | stefan__: I would suggest if for instance the username is "fred" : sudo chown -hR fred:fred /home/fred | 20:45 |
| genii | sumo_su: If the / (root directory) does not get mounted it is unlikely your system will even come up at all. | 20:46 |

| |dthacker| | LeeJunFan: how do I get past the point where the boot freezes? | 23:25 |
| zeelot | hey guys, have ubuntu 64bit installed few days ago but my svn gui clients (yes all of them) fail to show me a login prompt to commit, any reason why or how to reset it to ask again? | 23:25 |
| |dthacker| | never mind. it seems to have healed itself | 23:27 |
| |dthacker| | wierd | 23:27 |
| |dthacker| | weird even | 23:27 |
| |dthacker| | later | 23:27 |
| alper_ | LeeJunFan: now I am connected o my network but I still get "No scan results" from iwlist scan. but I have the populated iwconfig output now | 23:32 |
| alper_ | LeeJunFan: thank you, everything is fine now I am connected :)))) | 23:35 |
| LeeJunFan | alper_: well, that's good but I'm not sure abotu iwlist not working right :) | 23:36 |
| mn | "unexpected en of file in version number in..." | 23:36 |
| joegeek | well,.. im glad im not the only one who's have`n problems with wifi,... | 23:36 |
| dr_willis | wifi IS a problem | 23:37 |
| dr_willis | :) | 23:37 |
| joegeek | lol | 23:37 |
| dr_willis | gotta love nonstantard standards.. and binary blob/firmware/drivers | 23:37 |
| alper_ | LeeJunFan: about that I think the problem was me I typed it with sudo and I got it. I am learning :)) | 23:37 |
| dr_willis | and a dozen howtos to get the same card working - a dozen different ways | 23:37 |
| dr_willis | :) | 23:37 |
| LeeJunFan | lol, especially with the broadcom | 23:38 |
| LeeJunFan | at least atheros is pretty straightforward - use madwifi. | 23:38 |
| joegeek | I can connect to an unsecured network, but when I try to connect to my wap (secured) no luck,.. | 23:38 |
| LeeJunFan | joegeek: wpa or wep? kind of lost me there. :) | 23:38 |
| joegeek | we[ | 23:39 |
| joegeek | wep | 23:39 |
| LeeJunFan | hrm, that's odd - wep is usually easy enough. I've had some issues with different versions and types of wpa. | 23:39 |
| LeeJunFan | joegeek: one of the biggest problems I have with WEP is I often forget to choose in knetworkmanager if I'm entering a passphrase, or a key. I use the key, and it defaults to asking for a passphrase so I have to choose a key. | 23:40 |
| zeelot | please someone help me...no svn clients on ubuntu 64bit 8.04 ever ask for login info I just get a 403 permission denied right away I need this to be fixed or I cant work!! anyone have any idea??? | 23:40 |
| LeeJunFan | of course right now I'm in intrepid and knetworkmanager is broken completely for wireless :) | 23:40 |
| LeeJunFan | zeelot: it's probably some setting in your ~/.subversion directory. | 23:42 |
| joegeek | i've been use`n all kinds of settings,.. Started with the ones i knew were right,... | 23:42 |
| sanguisdex | here is a faq, I have been a using ubuntu for a while now but would like to try K 4 as it looks like a step up. is there a way I can try it w/o reformating and if I decide that I prefer gnome better is there a simple way to go back? | 23:42 |
| LeeJunFan | !kde4 | 23:43 |
| ubottu | KDE 4.1.1 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. Packages can be found at http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.1.1 - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 | 23:43 |
| joegeek | LeeJunFan: use`n KNetworkManager of course,... | 23:43 |
| LeeJunFan | sanguisdex: I wouldn't call it a step up yet - there are a lot of components unfinished yet. | 23:43 |
| sanguisdex | LeeJunFan: so I might want to wait till 4.2 to oavoid frustrations | 23:44 |
| sanguisdex | ? | 23:44 |
| joshuajtl | is it true that in about a month kubuntu is dropping kde3 ? | 23:44 |
| LeeJunFan | 4.1.2 and no | 23:45 |
| zeelot | LeeJunFan: thanks, uninstalled subversion, deleted the .subversion folder and reinstalled, works | 23:46 |
| LeeJunFan | zeelot: good, your welcome. | 23:47 |
| LeeJunFan | sanguisdex: You can install 4.1.1 from that link above but I found that after installing the hardy 4.4.1 and upgrading to intrepid I had to manually remove all the hardy ones because they were actually treated as different programs. | 23:47 |
| dr_willis | You proberly dident need to 'uninstall subversion' :) | 23:48 |
| Denise | and desinformation? | 23:49 |

| rightBlinker | can someone recommend a video screen capture utility for Kubuntu? | 23:50 |
| LeeJunFan | ksnapshot | 23:51 |
| LeeJunFan | oh, sry video. | 23:51 |
| rightBlinker | = ) | 23:51 |
| LeeJunFan | krecordmydesktop | 23:51 |
| rightBlinker | LeeJunFan: Thanks | 23:51 |
| Denise | u can keep on dreaming on firmware dear | 23:53 |
| Denise | u will wait a long time | 23:53 |
| clusby | anyone know if I can disable / remap the 'ctrl-alt-Fx' keys? | 23:53 |
| clusby | i.e. i have a virtual machine, and running excel is kinda hard because I would like 'ctrl-alt-F9' | 23:54 |
| Denise | I dont care | 23:55 |
| Search4Lancer | I think I broke something.... somehow. I had started Kaffeine and Ktorrent at the same time, system all but froze up (and wouldn't let me kill ktorrent), I finally just shut it off (or it did so itself, don't remember), and now won't boot back up - I can type my password in to the login screen and hit enter, or change the kind of session I want and do nothing else, and it goes to the default... | 23:56 |
| Search4Lancer | ...background for 30 seconds or so, then shuts off | 23:56 |
| Search4Lancer | ah, I remember, while it was frozen, it was constantly reading/writing on my external HD... I shut off the HD, and the whole system shut off | 23:57 |
