| DarkriftX | or of gkrellm has any plugins that will give that info? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| ActionParsnip | DarkriftX: you can use the web interface, i dunno at cli | 00:01 |
| ActionParsnip | mefisto__: if i try to remove libvorbisfile3 it wants to pretty much remove my whole system | 00:02 |
| DarkriftX | k | 00:02 |
| mefisto__ | ActionParsnip: and sudo apt-get install --reinstall doesn't reinstall it? | 00:02 |
| ActionParsnip | mefisto__: yes it does but doesnt cure the issue | 00:03 |
| mefisto__ | ActionParsnip: sorry I must have missed something. I thought you had overwritten that file and wanted the original 64bit version back | 00:04 |
| ActionParsnip | mefisto__: http://pastebin.com/m7f5edc39 | 00:04 |
| ActionParsnip | mefisto__: yeah ive got it and its still screwy | 00:05 |
| ActionParsnip | mefisto__: seems ive got a 32bit in /usr/lib32 and 64bit in /usr/lib64and 64bit in /usr/lib | 00:10 |
| mefisto__ | ActionParsnip: you would think that should work | 00:11 |
| mefisto__ | ActionParsnip: what if you temporarily rename the 32bit one, and make a symlink in that dir to the 64bit one, just to see if it works | 00:12 |
| ActionParsnip | good plan, stan | 00:13 |
| ActionParsnip | is there a way to find out which file its looking for? | 00:15 |
| eljefe | how can I get Kubuntu's Konqueror filer/search field into my Debian KDE? I love how Kubuntu's Konqueror can narrow down the files on the screen with its filter | 00:22 |
| ActionParsnip | eljefe: id imagine if you have konqueror installed itd do it | 00:26 |
| eljefe | I've never been able to find the option or plugin | 00:27 |

| bulten | hej jag undrar över hur man ska gå igång sharen i Kubuntu, är nybörjare :s | 00:30 |
| bulten | No swedish peaple here | 00:31 |
| mefisto__ | eljefe: in configure toolbars, look for the action "filter field" and add it to a toolbar | 00:31 |
| mefisto__ | eljefe: or just install kubuntu | 00:32 |
| eljefe | mefisto__: nope, i don't have that option when i configure toolbars :( | 00:36 |
| mefisto__ | eljefe: in kubuntu it is in it's own toolbar called "filter toolbar" which can be selected from a dropdown list in the configure toolbars dialog | 00:38 |
| eljefe | i think i found it with apt in Debian's "konq-plugins".. installing now | 00:39 |
| eljefe | yeah mefisto__ i've now got it, thanks a million! | 00:41 |
| eljefe | i love that thing | 00:41 |
| mefisto__ | eljefe: there might be some other features to discover in that konq-plugins package | 00:41 |
| eljefe | i agree | 00:42 |
| eljefe | bablefish tooolbar, tork toolbar, maybe five others more... and those are just toolbars :) | 00:42 |

| etfb | I installed MonoDevelop and MonoDoc, but half the documentation is missing. All the GTK stuff, for a start. Is this a Kubuntu problem, ie there's doco that would be there if I were using Gnome? Or is the Mono package just underspecified? What do I do to fix it? | 01:20 |
| Skreech | how do I stop the BIOS from flagging an non exisitent Wifi card? | 01:33 |
| mefisto__ | Skreech: flagging? what do you mean? | 01:35 |
| Skreech | mefisto__: An Atheros Wifi Chipset comes up even though none exists | 01:36 |
| mefisto__ | Skreech: did it once exist? or do you have a different wifi device? | 01:42 |
| Skreech | mefisto__: never exisited | 01:42 |
| Skreech | laptop had a BIOS update and it went physchotic | 01:43 |
| Skreech | atheros is a ath_* in lsmod right ? | 01:43 |
| kevin_ | I have searched the internet for a tutorial on establishing a cross-over cable ethernet connection between two ubuntu systmes, does any one kno of a good tutorial that will help me? | 01:44 |
| Schuenemann | hey, if I download a package using apt-get install -d, does it download dependencies too? | 01:44 |
| Skreech | kevin_: Cross over is a hardware level | 01:44 |
| Skreech | if it connects then your cable is good | 01:45 |
| kevin_ | yes skreech...but it is the settings that I think I have problems with | 01:45 |
| kevin_ | it connects | 01:45 |
| kevin_ | but one machine recognizes teh cable | 01:45 |
| kevin_ | teh other just recognizes teh socket | 01:46 |
| Skreech | kevin_: well are the machines DHCP servers? | 01:46 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: Should | 01:46 |
| kevin_ | no | 01:46 |
| kevin_ | I don't think anythign on my system is a s | 01:46 |
| kevin_ | server | 01:46 |
| kevin_ | should I download some server packages? | 01:46 |
| B_Raven | Should I be worried that the file "~/http+_www.apple.com_DTDs_PropertyList-1.0.dtd" suddenly showed up out of nowhere? | 01:47 |
| Skreech | kevin_: May have to set your IP address manually then | 01:47 |
| Skreech | B_Raven: who owns it? | 01:47 |
| mefisto__ | Skreech: you could blacklist the module. put it in this file: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 01:47 |
| kevin_ | hmmm I did that... let me find the info | 01:47 |
| Skreech | mefisto__: I figured that I'm trying to figure out what I should blacklist | 01:47 |
| kevin_ | sudo ifconfig eth0 10.0.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.252 | 01:48 |
| kevin_ | I did both machines | 01:48 |
| Schuenemann | Skreech, I need to be sure... but I don't want to test :p | 01:48 |
| mefisto__ | Skreech: any hardware not working after the bios update? maybe something else is being misinterpreted as the wifi chipset? | 01:49 |
| B_Raven | Skreech, says I do. (main user account) | 01:49 |
| kevin_ | the ohter machine is the same, but the eth0 10.0.1.2 | 01:49 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: check for the dependecies in /var/cache/apt/archives | 01:50 |
| Schuenemann | I'd have to test to check that =/ | 01:50 |
| Skreech | mefisto__: Not that I can find out | 01:50 |
| Skreech | B_Raven: When was it created? | 01:51 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: what? | 01:51 |
| Schuenemann | download | 01:51 |
| B_Raven | Skreech, Darn, forgot to check before my instant twitch reaction set in and I removed it. But pretty sure it's no older than a day at most. | 01:52 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: They shoudl be downloaded in that directory already | 01:53 |
| mefisto__ | B_Raven: it's probably a browser left it there. DTD = document type definition and you'll see it at the beginning of most html files and some xml files | 01:53 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: If the dependcies are not there then it didn't pull them | 01:53 |
| B_Raven | mefisto__, Aye, and the actual text of it looked like exactly that. Still worry when something suddenly decides to put a file in my home directory. | 01:53 |
| Schuenemann | Skreech, I want to know if the dependencies WILL be dowloaded. I don't want to download them | 01:54 |
| mefisto__ | B_Raven: have you saved any content from www.apple.com recently? maybe a firefox extension or something like that is the cause? | 01:55 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: ah Well just run the command it will say at the start these depencies will be downloaded | 01:55 |
| Skreech | You can run the command then ctrl+C | 01:55 |
| B_Raven | mefisto__, wouldn't visit an apple site, let alone save anything from it, if people paid me for it. But that's a whole other argument. Short answer: not that I can recall. | 01:56 |
| Skreech | B_Raven: when was it created? | 01:56 |
| Schuenemann | Skreech, can you tell me an example? I can't imagine a package that isn't installed ow | 01:56 |
| Schuenemann | now* | 01:57 |
| Skreech | B_Raven: ah right sorry ::) | 01:57 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: You have all of main already? | 01:57 |
| Schuenemann | no | 01:57 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: tmw | 01:57 |
| Skreech | should pull in tmw-data | 01:57 |
| Schuenemann | Skreech, it says they will be installed too. Wonder if that is correct (since nothing will be installed, just downloaded) | 01:58 |
| Skreech | shouldn't be if you did -d | 01:58 |
| Schuenemann | meh, I'll try | 01:58 |
| B_Raven | Oh well, it's just a DTD, probably a bug of some kind somewhere. But will keep my eyes peeled for a while to see if anything else shows up. | 01:58 |
| Skreech | I'm pulling in kpat now to check | 01:59 |
| Schuenemann | Skreech, it worked | 01:59 |
| Skreech | Schuenemann: Yes siir | 01:59 |
| Schuenemann | Skreech, ok, thanks | 02:00 |
| ign0ramus | B_Raven: if you see here, http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/11/03/itunes.html, apparently "wget http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd" is a command that can be issued to hack iTunes a bit. But i think that only applies to Macs, and doesn't seem likely that you would've done it.... | 02:00 |
| B_Raven | ign0ramus, maybe some app that got bundled into the mix when I downloaded KDE4 to give it a try the other day? | 02:02 |
| ign0ramus | B_Raven: doesn't seem likely either, but it's not harmful in any way | 02:02 |
| ign0ramus | B_Raven: it'll probably just be a mystery for the ages o_O | 02:03 |
| B_Raven | ign0ramus, Better that than a symptom of a more serious bug in some software. | 02:03 |
| ign0ramus | agreed :-) | 02:03 |

| simon_ | I onlyt have Ubuntu on this system - do you mean when I removed it from the Windows laptop that is my other computer? | 03:48 |
| Skreech | simon_: yes | 03:48 |
| simon_ | So if I remove it correctly from Windows, then when I plugit in here, it will recognize right away? | 03:49 |
| simon_ | No "Scarlet Letter"? | 03:49 |
| geek_ | simon_: if its dismounted clearly i belueve so | 03:50 |
| coreymon | Skreech: sorry, i have to, take a look here, this may help you | 03:50 |
| simon_ | Otherwise, I just type "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdf1 import -o force"? | 03:50 |
| coreymon | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/NetgearMA111?highlight=(ManufacturerModel)|(AND) | 03:50 |
| geek_ | lol, yeah. basically you're telling it to ignore the flag in qyestion | 03:51 |
| coreymon | and this page | 03:51 |
| coreymon | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/prism2_usb | 03:51 |
| Skreech | coreymon: You off? | 03:51 |
| coreymon | i have to go | 03:51 |
| Skreech | coreymon: Stay crisp | 03:51 |
| simon_ | Got it. So how do I remove it "correctly" from my Windows PC? | 03:51 |
| coreymon | Skreech: take a look at those links | 03:51 |
| coreymon | they should help | 03:52 |
| B_Raven | simon_, the "safely remove hardware" button. | 03:52 |
| Skreech | simon_: there is a thing in the system tray that you click on that say safely remove hardware | 03:53 |
| simon_ | Ok. LAST QUESTION - In these chats, isthere a shortcut you use to type the name of the person you're addressing, or do you have to type it out each time? | 03:53 |
| Skreech | !tab | 03:53 |
| ubottu | You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:53 |
| simon_ | ! | 03:55 |
| simon_ | I dont get that, but thanks for helping me with the mounting (Skreech, geek, B_Raven, et al) | 03:55 |
| dr_willis | simon_, type dr_<TAB KEY> | 03:56 |
| Skreech | simon_: start typing someone's name then press <tab> | 03:56 |
| simon_ | dr_willis: | 03:56 |
| simon_ | AH! | 03:56 |
| dr_willis | Once ya learn about TAB - you realize realize you cant live without it. :) | 03:56 |
| simon_ | Thanks, dr_willis | 03:56 |

| simon_ | Skreech: | 03:57 |
| Skreech | !botsnack | 03:57 |
| simon_ | Got it. Thanks Everyone! | 03:57 |
| ubottu | Yum! Err, I mean, APT! | 03:57 |
| simon_ | !botsnack | 03:57 |
| Skreech | Ha ha | 03:57 |
| simon_ | I'm pathetic. Anyway, thanks again. Goodnight | 03:57 |
| Skreech | It doesn't like being played with | 03:57 |
| Skreech | simon_: try !hi | 03:57 |

| Skreech | simon_: See you tomorrow | 03:58 |
| Skreech | you will learn lots here | 03:58 |
| Skreech | simon_: Don | 03:58 |
| Skreech | 't forget to copy your music | 03:58 |
| simon_ | Oh, and I thought he was intelligent! | 03:58 |
| Skreech | ;-) | 03:58 |
| simon_ | Yeah, I'll be playing with !tabs all night now | 03:58 |
| Skreech | And the rest of your life | 03:58 |
| simon_ | No kidding. This Ubuntu is awesome. | 03:58 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: I was writing a mail the other day and wrote To: <tab> | 03:59 |
| simon_ | You guys didnt even charge me $90 for the first service call! | 03:59 |
| Skreech | Why isn't it auto completing the people in the company? | 03:59 |
| Skreech | simon_: Oh we did | 03:59 |
| Skreech | You'll get it next week | 03:59 |
| dr_willis | Tab even works for apt-get install poo<tab> and so forth. :) | 03:59 |
| Skreech | I wouldn't install poo :( | 03:59 |
| dr_willis | !find moo | 04:00 |
| ubottu | Found: kmoon, moodle, gkrellmoon, gtk-smooth-themes, ksplash-engine-moodin (and 17 others) | 04:00 |
| simon_ | If I hit [tab], it automatically puts in "Skreech" - the last person that addressed me or vice versa? | 04:00 |
| Skreech | simon_: Yes | 04:00 |
| simon_ | !find Sim | 04:00 |
| ubottu | Found: ksim, libcupsimage2, libcupsimage2-dev, libpod-simple-perl, libxml-simple-perl (and 113 others) | 04:00 |
| simon_ | unreal | 04:00 |
| simon_ | Who needs music | 04:00 |
| dr_willis | ive never noticed tab automatically doing the LAST person that addressed me, or vissaversa | 04:00 |
| Skreech | and if you type the start of someone's name it autocompletes the last person who said something if there are multiple people | 04:00 |
| dr_willis | but it may depend on the irc client. :) | 04:01 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: konversation | 04:01 |
| dr_willis | using xchat here. on vista even! :) | 04:01 |
| * Skreech steps away from dr_willis | 04:01 | |
| Skreech | !vista | 04:01 |

| Skreech | ha ha :) | 04:02 |
| Mrunagi | can anyone give me ideas on why kubuntu is checking my hard drive on boot 50% of the time with multiply claimed blocks, and only boots into xserver with an open shell window? | 04:06 |
| Skreech | Mrunagi: You need to check your Fs | 04:07 |
| Skreech | are you using ext3 ? | 04:07 |
| Mrunagi | yes | 04:08 |
| Skreech | have a live CD? | 04:08 |
| Mrunagi | no | 04:08 |
| Skreech | get one and boot up with it | 04:08 |
| Skreech | then sudo fsck /dev/sda1 | 04:09 |
| Skreech | should sort it out | 04:09 |
| Skreech | if not then sudo badblocks /dev/sda1 | 04:09 |
| Mrunagi | ive already done fsck | 04:09 |
| Mrunagi | it forces me to after the routine check | 04:09 |
| Skreech | run badblocks then | 04:10 |
| Skreech | might be the hard drive is trying to call for help | 04:10 |
| Mrunagi | is there a way to accept a securit certificate for wireless from the console? | 04:10 |
| Mrunagi | or do i have to have a browser and accept the terms for the hotel here | 04:10 |
| Mrunagi | lol this would be easier if i was online in linux | 04:10 |
| Skreech | iwconfig I think | 04:10 |
| Mrunagi | how do you accept the certificate with iwconfig | 04:11 |
| Skreech | ah what are you using to browse | 04:11 |
| Mrunagi | i cant browse if i cant get into xserver | 04:11 |
| Mrunagi | only thing that opens is a shell | 04:11 |
| Skreech | yes you can | 04:11 |
| Skreech | w3m | 04:11 |
| Skreech | w3m www.google.com | 04:11 |
| Skreech | or w3m cnn.com | 04:12 |
| Mrunagi | whats w3m? | 04:13 |
| Skreech | command line browser | 04:14 |
| Mrunagi | hrm | 04:14 |
| Mrunagi | ill try that | 04:14 |
| Mrunagi | thanks brb | 04:14 |
| Skreech | you use irssi to get here | 04:15 |
| Totale | I'm not sure if I want to use "Migrate Documents and Settings", I need a link or a description of what exactly gets moved. | 04:17 |
| Mrunagi | yea i love irssi but it wouldnt connect because i didnt have the certificate | 04:17 |
| === luis is now known as tigremx | ||
| Mrunagi | is w3m standard with kubuntu? | 04:18 |
| Skreech | yes | 04:18 |
| Skreech | Totale: application settings and documents | 04:18 |
| Skreech | outlook mail etc | 04:18 |
| Totale | i didn't use the "My Documents" folder at all | 04:18 |
| Totale | nor outlook | 04:18 |
| Totale | lol | 04:18 |
| Skreech | then not a lot will get migrated then | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | I dont things get 'moved'' they get copied. :) | 04:19 |
| Totale | ya | 04:19 |
| Totale | that | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | ive never seen much get migrated at all | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | in the few times ive tried it | 04:19 |
| Totale | seems like only my background will be copied | 04:20 |
| dr_willis | thats SOOOO handy! :) | 04:21 |
| Totale | =P | 04:21 |
| Totale | i organized everything in folders that i made | 04:21 |
| Skreech | ha ha | 04:21 |
| Totale | My Documents and stuff are useless | 04:21 |
| * dr_willis wonders who decided to use 'My ' in front of things... that person at MS should get shot... | 04:22 | |
| Totale | well if you're on another user, it replaces the My with the users name | 04:22 |
| Totale | but, i don't see why you'd need that. the folder you go in first is the users name... | 04:23 |
| Totale | not that i used that either haha | 04:23 |
| Totale | this is the only windows computer in my house, i've long since become even more annoyed with windows | 04:23 |
| Totale | so i decided i'd go with ubuntu on this one | 04:24 |
| Totale | =P | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | Wife saw the PC had "My Documents" and she got mad at me.. "Hay! its also My PC! not Just Yours!" | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | :) honestly she said that.. | 04:24 |
| Totale | ^_^ | 04:24 |
| Totale | nice | 04:24 |
| Totale | i'm looking forward to making this one as pretty as my other linux installations | 04:25 |
| dr_willis | even she then reaized it always says My.. and asked me why it bothered... | 04:25 |
| dr_willis | :) | 04:25 |
| dr_willis | then she made me install her fave Solitare game.. so she could 'work on the pc' :) | 04:26 |
| mrunagi | hrm | 04:26 |
| mrunagi | odd | 04:26 |
| mrunagi | itll boot if i go to sessions and select kdm | 04:26 |
| mrunagi | er kde | 04:26 |
| mr---t- | mine got ticked when she saw my home folder had my name on it | 04:26 |
| Totale | lol | 04:26 |
| mrunagi | w3m doesnt get certificates | 04:26 |
| Totale | my girlfriend managed to make the linux i installed on her laptop incapable of booting | 04:27 |
| Totale | it went into a terminal session with most of the commands missing | 04:28 |
| Totale | --_-- | 04:28 |
| Totale | i have no idea how she managed that | 04:28 |
| mr---t- | I made my ff homepage her favorite recipe site and lo and behold she likes linux now | 04:28 |
| Totale | sweet | 04:29 |
| mrunagi | anyone have problems with firefox locking up and having a black screen?> | 04:29 |
| mr---t- | then I gave her a hot link to her gmail | 04:29 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: is she MCSE? | 04:29 |
| Totale | get the gmail add-on for firefox | 04:29 |
| Totale | it's sexy | 04:30 |
| dr_willis | Skreech, shes more of a 'PEBKAC' | 04:30 |
| Totale | lol | 04:30 |
| mr---t- | no It has to be simple | 04:30 |
| Totale | that is simple O_O | 04:30 |
| Skreech | mrunagi: What certificates? | 04:30 |
| Totale | has a thing at the bottom of your firefox that says how much mail you have | 04:30 |
| Totale | and you click it to go to the site | 04:30 |
| dr_willis | My wife did learn to use the littel gmail-notifer systray tool :) | 04:31 |
| mr---t- | no I mean it has to look like whats she used to | 04:31 |
| mrunagi | im at a hotel | 04:31 |
| Totale | ah, one of those change haters | 04:31 |
| mr---t- | no changes are good for her | 04:31 |
| mrunagi | their wireless requires i accept the agreement before i can use the inet | 04:31 |
| Totale | accept it then lol | 04:31 |
| mr---t- | I just want to click on the thing like before...blah | 04:32 |
| mrunagi | how do you do that from the console? | 04:32 |
| Skreech | Totale: from the command line | 04:32 |
| dr_willis | hit tghe tab key to get to the OK button | 04:32 |
| cward | anyone know how to completely uninstall gnome | 04:32 |
| dr_willis | perhaps | 04:32 |
| Totale | Skreech: ? | 04:32 |
| mrunagi | how do you accept a certificate from the command line | 04:32 |
| Totale | cward: are you replacing it or you just want a terminal? | 04:33 |
| cward | just want it removed | 04:33 |
| cward | ive decided to use kde | 04:33 |
| Totale | is kde already installed? | 04:33 |
| cward | yeah | 04:33 |
| dr_willis | I tend to mixx and match both kde and gnome apps | 04:34 |
| Totale | while using kde or in a terminal with the xserver stopped type sudo aptitude purge ubuntu-desktop | 04:34 |
| Totale | that should do it lol | 04:34 |
| mr---t- | then hit menu on the splash screen and select kde | 04:34 |
| dr_willis | Im not sure that will work Totale ... | 04:34 |
| Totale | shwha? | 04:34 |
| dr_willis | it may depend on how it was installed. | 04:35 |
| Totale | true, but i'm assuming they installed ubuntu | 04:35 |
| cward | yeah that didnt work | 04:35 |
| Totale | then got kde afterwards | 04:35 |
| Totale | damn | 04:35 |
| mrunagi | i wish firefox would work | 04:35 |
| Totale | lol | 04:35 |
| dr_willis | theres some wiki/url/factoid on cleaning out gnome/kde back to defaults | 04:35 |
| dr_willis | !cleankde | 04:35 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about cleankde | 04:35 |
| cward | not a big deal i was just curious | 04:35 |
| cward | thanks anyway | 04:35 |
| dr_willis | basicially fire up package manager..and start removing stuff | 04:35 |
| dr_willis | :) | 04:35 |
| mr---t- | do you need the space? | 04:35 |
| Totale | =P | 04:36 |
| Totale | space is valuable | 04:36 |
| Totale | even though i have 2 500GB harddrives, i still think so | 04:36 |
| dr_willis | Space is Big, SPace is Dark... its hard to find.. a place to park. | 04:36 |
| Totale | haha | 04:36 |
| dr_willis | Berma Shave | 04:36 |
| Totale | Perma Shave | 04:36 |
| Totale | a dream come true? | 04:36 |
| dr_willis | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burma-Shave | 04:37 |
| Totale | --_-- | 04:37 |
| mr---t- | dr_willis: your using a very old reference | 04:37 |
| dr_willis | :) | 04:38 |
| dr_willis | It pays to learn your history! | 04:38 |
| Totale | history is pointless in my perspective, math is good | 04:38 |
| Totale | math is great | 04:39 |
| dr_willis | Imagine driving down the road and seeing the following signs... | 04:40 |
| dr_willis | http://burma-shave.org/jingles/1960/statistics_prove | 04:40 |
| dr_willis | :) | 04:40 |
| Totale | thanks for the chat, the installation is complete | 04:41 |
| Totale | later | 04:41 |
| dr_willis | with Linux it often pays to pay attention to the history of linux. SO your ealize why things are the way they are. | 04:41 |
| dr_willis | like wheres the n in 'unmount' gone to? | 04:41 |
| dr_willis | :) | 04:41 |
| mrunagi | anyone know anything about bluetooth with kb2? | 04:42 |
| mrunagi | kubuntu | 04:42 |
| mr---t- | !bluetooth | 04:43 |
| ubottu | For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 04:43 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: alias unmount=umount | 04:43 |
| mrunagi | mk | 04:44 |
| mrunagi | when i wvdial from the console my phone tries to pair with my laptop but i have no way of putting in the pin in the console any ideas? | 04:44 |
| Skreech | uh oh | 04:51 |
| Skreech | install sstalls at USB 90% | 04:52 |
| dr_willis | mrunagi, make it have a delay after it dials.. then give the #'s it needs. | 04:53 |
| dr_willis | perhaps... | 04:53 |
| wt | anyone here no where the /boot partition gets mounted from? | 04:53 |
| wt | It's not in my fstab | 04:53 |
| wt | and it's screwing update-grub | 04:53 |
| dr_willis | wt, from the grub/kernel options | 04:53 |
| Skreech | wt from grub | 04:54 |
| wt | the update grub script screws me when the /boot is on a separate partition | 04:54 |
| dr_willis | 'root h0,0' sort of says that /boot / is on hd0,9 | 04:54 |
| dr_willis | ooops hd0,0 | 04:54 |
| nellery | Hi, how can I change the desktop keyboard shortcuts, for example changing minimizing all windows to the desktop | 04:54 |
| nellery | which is by default ctrl+alt+d | 04:54 |
| wt | the script uses fstab to find the which device the /boot partition is on | 04:55 |
| wt | it should be using the mount command | 04:55 |
| wt | where are the grub kernel options? | 04:55 |
| dr_willis | # groot=(hd1,0) | 04:55 |
| dr_willis | I think sets the default for where its at | 04:55 |
| wt | okay so it seems to have the right entry there | 04:56 |
| wt | It just tries to load my kernels from /boot/vmblah | 04:56 |
| wt | instead of /vmblah | 04:56 |
| dr_willis | Ive not needed a seperate partition for /boot/ in ages... so ive never noticed | 04:56 |
| wt | which it has to do when /boot is a separate partition | 04:56 |
| dr_willis | I was thinking there was a link from /kernel to /boot/kernel | 04:56 |
| wt | This is a Dell 1420 with the partition scheme from Dell | 04:56 |
| wt | I haven't either | 04:57 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: Help :( | 04:57 |
| dr_willis | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 999 30 2008-09-27 13:28 vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-19-generic | 04:57 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: install stops at 90% how can I track it | 04:57 |
| wt | I just ahve a feeling this my kill anyone upgrading a 1420 with the default partition scheme | 04:57 |
| dr_willis | wonder if its tghe grub menus items looking for /vmlinuz when they should be looking at /boot/vmlinuz - or visa-versa | 04:57 |
| dr_willis | Skreech, what stops? | 04:57 |
| wt | I think that could be a bad thing considering that the 1420 shipped with Ubuntu from Dell. | 04:57 |
| wt | grub doesn't mount the /boot...is there a script that does it in the initrd or during the boot process? | 04:59 |
| wt | I am trying to figure out how the /boot is even mounted. | 04:59 |
| dr_willis | i recall seeing some disrto (gentoo?) had a boot partition mounted to /boot/ with a directory /boot/boot that was a link back to .. | 05:00 |
| dr_willis | :) | 05:00 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: The install for Kubuntu | 05:00 |
| dr_willis | Skreech, i would try th alternative isntaller.. or run the installer script from a terminal | 05:01 |
| wt | well...that's kinda lame | 05:01 |
| wt | but I guess it would work | 05:01 |
| dr_willis | wt, gentoo dident mount /boot/ by default either. but /boot/ should be mounted from a fstab entry. | 05:01 |
| wt | my fstab doesn't contain the entry for boot | 05:01 |
| dr_willis | but thats not what tells the grub boot loader where to look. | 05:01 |
| wt | only / and the swap are in fstab | 05:02 |
| dr_willis | wt, its possible you got a /boot thats not mounted then.. but you hae files in the /boot/ directory | 05:02 |
| wt | however 'mount' shows the /boot volume | 05:02 |
| dr_willis | thats weird. | 05:02 |
| wt | I know | 05:02 |
| dr_willis | cant really say much more on the topic.. not tried a sepreate /boot/ in ages... the forums/wiki may have some info. | 05:02 |
| wt | that's why I am so confused | 05:02 |
| dr_willis | mount /boot/ partition to /theboot/ and copy all files to /boot/ :) perhaps... | 05:03 |
| dr_willis | wow.. thats weird.. | 05:03 |
| wt | Well, this could really irk the folks that bought a machine shipping with Ubuntu...seems like that'd be bad PR...I would hate for Ubuntu to suffer that. | 05:03 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: can I see what the installer is doing? | 05:03 |
| dr_willis | copy all files from the boot 'partition' to the /boot perhaps.. ive neverheard of anyone else with this issue in here.. but i dont see a lot of dell users | 05:04 |
| rah_ | This is wt | 05:04 |
| dr_willis | Skreech, the alternative installer cd has logs on the alt-ctrl-f5 or somiler terminal | 05:04 |
| rah_ | I am on the computer with the issue | 05:04 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: it says loading module usb-storage For USB sotrage | 05:04 |
| rah_ | and why is skim so persistent | 05:06 |
| rah_ | err...scim | 05:06 |
| wt | I was wrong | 05:07 |
| wt | I see the boot entry now | 05:07 |
| wt | It was hiding from my frustrated eyes, I guess | 05:07 |
| wt | but it still probably won't work with the update-grub properly | 05:08 |
| Skreech | dr_willis: argh this machine is frustrating | 05:08 |
| wt | ok...it seems to parse the right root volume | 05:09 |
| wt | It just isn't doing the lame thing with appending the /boot on the front of the kernel filenames | 05:10 |

| SkEmO | why does my amule closes on its own? | 05:23 |
| dr_willis | perhaps its crashing... | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | run it from a terminal, look for error messages | 05:24 |
| wt | well...I see what the problem is now | 05:24 |
| wt | I wonder what the chance of getting the fix in in time for Intrepid is | 05:25 |
| dr_willis | post a bug and see.. i guess. | 05:25 |
| dr_willis | or it may allready be in progress to get fixed | 05:25 |
| wt | I couldn't find a bug | 05:25 |
| SkEmO | how can i run it from terminal? | 05:25 |
| dr_willis | SkEmO, just guessing... but open a terminal try running the command 'amule' perhaps | 05:26 |
| SkEmO | hey im new here | 05:26 |
| dr_willis | it could be named somthing totally different from 'amule' - | 05:27 |
| SkEmO | nah, its amule | 05:27 |
| dr_willis | You could some how check out what the icon in the menus runs.. but i forget the best way tod o that | 05:27 |
| dr_willis | I run apps more from the terminal window theni do the icons/menus :) | 05:28 |
| mazi_ | hola | 05:50 |
| Secto1 | How can I install ubuntu and skip over bad sectors of the hard disk? | 05:55 |
| dr_willis | Hmm.. use a live cd and perhaps format/fsck/use badblocks to have it format the disk and tag the bad blocks | 05:56 |
| john_ | can anyone tell me how to get ltserial to load | 05:56 |
| dr_willis | I tend to throw out drives when they start to get flakey on me. Way too much data loss in the past forme to trust them any more | 05:57 |
| Secto1 | true i suppose | 05:57 |
| Secto1 | was just hoping to get something out of this drive | 05:57 |
| dr_willis | set it up as temp/swap perhaps... | 05:58 |
| dr_willis | but it depends on your needs I guess | 05:58 |
| dr_willis | i though when the drive got formated it checked/scaned the disk.. but perhaps the installer does a quick type format | 05:59 |
| john_ | I tried loading it with this line "sudo sh -c "echo ltserial >> /etc/modules" | 05:59 |
| Secto1 | well the disk seems to have strange "bad sectors" | 05:59 |
| Secto1 | most of the time it works fine | 05:59 |
| Secto1 | but will randomly lose things located at the beginning of the drive | 05:59 |
| dr_willis | john_, i would check that /etc/modules to be sure your edit actually got done right... | 05:59 |
| dr_willis | john_, ltserial does NOt seem tobe a proper module name either. | 06:00 |
| john_ | checking | 06:00 |
| dr_willis | !find ltserial | 06:02 |
| ubottu | File ltserial found in Use, of, uninitialized, value, in (and 32 others) | 06:02 |
| dr_willis | poor bot.. | 06:02 |

| RurouniJones | !ask | 06:15 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 06:15 |
| danny | I'm trying to use multiple cards. But It's not so simple as just plug in Pulse. | 06:15 |
| Sixzero | nm got it | 06:15 |
| danny | Alright I'll try to get it on one line. I have two cards. One is the horrid AC97 onboard which I'm trying to use as my OSS capable card for using a headset for Teamspeak2. That's all I want going through the onboard. I also have a PCI Soundblaster Live CT4832 that I'm trying to configure for 5.1 Surround. I think it's capable but I'm not sure. I could reverse these if necessary but the right front channel is blown on | 06:17 |
| danny | the AC97. Hence why I'm trying to use the Soundblaster. What do I need to do to get the setup I-m looking for? | 06:17 |
| danny | I'm new to heaven so it's a little confusing reading through http://alsa.opensrc.org/MultipleCards#Multiple_devices | 06:19 |
| danny | and by heaven I mean Linux. Wine finally took care of my dependancy on winblows | 06:20 |

| auralfixaton | hi all | 06:27 |
| danny | rami is it a PCI wireless or a USB key? | 06:28 |
| rami | PCI on my vaio | 06:29 |
| danny | have you tried using the GUIS KWiFiManager or Wireless Assistant? would be my best advice. I'm fairly new myself. | 06:32 |

| RenzoreK | How do I change the KDE button to something more Kubuntu themed? Does anyone know? | 06:33 |
| === nate_ is now known as C0L7 | ||
| rah_ | ok I found the root of the issue | 06:35 |
| Sixzero | RenzoreK: which version of kde are you using? | 06:37 |
| rah_ | the update-grub script doesn't look at the last line of the fstab | 06:38 |
| Sixzero | LEROY JENNNNKINS! | 06:38 |
| rah_ | It seems that not ending in a newline causes the issue | 06:38 |
| RenzoreK | Sixzero: KDE 3 | 06:39 |
| Sixzero | RenzoreK: are you just wanting to change the picture of the little k with a gear on it? | 06:40 |
| RenzoreK | Sixzero: Yes, simply that | 06:41 |
| RenzoreK | I feel kubuntu isnt as themed as ubuntu | 06:41 |
| Sixzero | RenzoreK: if so, then you should right-click the kde button, highlight Panel Menu, and then click Configure Panel.... | 06:41 |
| Sixzero | RenzoreK: after that, go down to appearance, and near the bottom of the screen you'll see the option to change the .png of the button. | 06:42 |
| Sixzero | RenzoreK: if my guess is right, that is. | 06:43 |
| RenzoreK | Sixzero: That usually for me just changes the entire panel color, not just K | 06:46 |
| Sixzero | RenzoreK: otherwise, you can also change the entire theme by going to system settings/appearance/icons and change it from there. | 06:46 |
| Sixzero | RenzoreK: I gave you the wrong link the first time. sorry bout that. | 06:46 |
| ciniculusxoneo | Who are you and where do you live? Why are you stealing my water? Where are you taking it? GIVE IT BACK | 06:49 |

| dr_willis | with the package manager tool that you perfer. | 06:57 |
| danny | You'll have to use the manager because the regular tool won't list it. | 06:58 |
| dr_willis | I condider the 'add/remove programs icon tool' to be the 'crippled tool' :) | 06:59 |
| Sixzero | festival | 07:00 |

| danny | So can someone please tell me how to set up for two soundcards? One is onboard that I only want Teamspeak to use and the other is a SoundBlaster Live. I think (not sure) that it's 5.1 surround capable wchich is my goal. How do I fix it up? | 07:02 |

| shepherd | i'm first | 09:45 |
| comedit | we do multitasking here | 09:46 |
| comedit | by the way can't help you sheperd, I have worked with wine howver it does not work for every program | 09:48 |
| comedit | I would advice you to install for instance virtual box (not the os version but puel (usb-support))and install a virtual windows machine in there | 09:50 |
| comedit | I run ubuntu virtual and a vista and an xp side by side and can jump from one to another in a split second | 09:51 |
| comedit | more important i back up my system each night. And if i ever have a hardware crash | 09:52 |
| comedit | I just take my backed up virtual computer and run it on the new hardware (but wasn't necessary yet) | 09:53 |
| shepherd | hi | 09:53 |

| dZen|n| | jussi01: is there any more I should install. (why is sun so slowly to make an 64 bit java) :) | 10:55 |
| jussi01 | dZen|n|: that should give you the whole pack - and Ive no idea on the sun question... | 10:56 |

| ubottu | simon_: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 12:43 |
| Frog4Hire | I did a adept_manager --help-all to check commands.. | 12:44 |
| LjL | Frog4Hire: wait, if you're trying to upgrade to intrepid, i think that's --dist-upgrade-devel, not -proposed | 12:44 |
| Frog4Hire | ah | 12:44 |
| Frog4Hire | let me try.... running Kubuntu through virtualbox | 12:45 |
| Frog4Hire | same thing: adept_manager --dist-upgrade-devel | 12:45 |
| Frog4Hire | No protocol specified | 12:45 |
| Frog4Hire | adept_manager: cannot connect to X server :0.0 | 12:45 |
| LjL | Frog4Hire: you should use it with kdesudo, not sudo | 12:47 |
| Frog4Hire | ah.. long time gnome fan... | 12:48 |
| Frog4Hire | no offence... I'm trying. :) | 12:49 |
| LjL | !kdesudo | 12:49 |
| ubottu | In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 12:49 |

| simon_ | what run mode using Kubuntu? windows use .exe but kubuntu use .... ??????????? | 12:58 |
| LjL | vbgunz: "ted" is not KDE, but it's specifically an RTF editor (otherwise, i guess KWord would do...) and seems very lightweight | 13:01 |
| vbgunz | I checked out ted, not what I was looking for | 13:02 |
| vbgunz | i'll check out kword | 13:02 |
| LjL | vbgunz: well, what are you looking for then | 13:02 |
| vbgunz | I think it was tomboy. something stupid simple | 13:02 |
| LjL | vbgunz: well but that's not really an RTF editor, it's a note taker... | 13:03 |
| LjL | vbgunz: KWord is KOffice's word processor, it's not stupid simple, it's quite full-featured | 13:04 |
| vbgunz | yeah but it had the simplest RTF components. bold, headings, list and I think that was it | 13:04 |
| vbgunz | I just want to take down some notes and list and headers are important but my idea is too simple for full blown RTF editors | 13:05 |

| Teisei | Hi everyone | 13:24 |
| Teisei | Is KDE 4.1 still slow and sluggish ? | 13:25 |
| Teisei | Or is it ready to use ? | 13:25 |
| geek_compiling | try asking in #kubuntu-kde4 | 13:25 |
| vbgunz | Teisei: I am using it alongside 3.5.9 and find it faster | 13:25 |
| vbgunz | well, not really faster, thats bad to say. I do notice though it feels faster | 13:26 |
| djdarkman | Teisei: it currently depends on your hardware | 13:26 |
| Teisei | vbgunz: I tried KDE 4 about a month ago. It was really slow, and those widget things used to crash | 13:27 |
| Teisei | It was really unstable | 13:27 |
| vbgunz | I turned all the special effects off. probably why it feels fast | 13:27 |
| djdarkman | Teisei: that version was never intended for end users, but it wasn't communicated well | 13:27 |
| Teisei | I'm already used to using Compiz with all these transparencies and other handy effects | 13:28 |
| Teisei | Both KDE 3.5.10 ? and Gnome | 13:28 |
| vbgunz | Teisei: supposedly Nvidia makes things worse on KDE4. seems to be the most problematic card on there :/ | 13:28 |
| Teisei | I have Thinkpad T60 with Intel GMA 950 graphics card | 13:29 |
| Teisei | Compiz runs smoothly but KDE 4.1 was really heavy | 13:29 |
| djdarkman | Teisei: then it just might work for you | 13:29 |
| Teisei | Is Amarok 2 already available ? | 13:30 |
| djdarkman | Teisei: yes, but I don't think you'd be happy with it | 13:30 |
| Teisei | I'm using the non-kde4 version of Amarok atm | 13:30 |
| Teisei | Ok. I just hope they make this miniplayer window for Amarok 2 as well | 13:30 |
| Teisei | Having full screen media player just doesn't make any sense :D | 13:31 |
| Teisei | Oh and how about transparent tray icons in KDE 4.1 ? | 13:32 |
| Teisei | Do those icons still have black rectangle around them ? | 13:32 |

| maduser | I believe after you instl it you have to choose it from the login screen | 19:00 |

| === jhutchins_kc is now known as jhutchins | ||
| radovich | hello ppl | 19:36 |
| sebastian_ | does anyone know what i can do to stop my xorg process from using 98% of my cpu | 19:38 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: Are you using Compiz Fusion? | 19:38 |
| sebastian_ | yes i am | 19:38 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: With an nvidia card, and its nvidia drivers? | 19:38 |
| sebastian_ | but i have for a long time and all of the sudden it starts using all of my cpu | 19:38 |
| sebastian_ | yes | 19:39 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: Possibly a 85xx, 86xx series? | 19:39 |
| sebastian_ | 86 i think | 19:39 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: I run the same type of hardware and I have 3GB Ram, 3800+ Dual Core CPU, I occasionally get almost all CPU by either Compiz/XOrg | 19:40 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: Do you run the system with multiple users? Or multiple sessions | 19:40 |
| sebastian_ | yes but this has been goiing on for days | 19:40 |
| sebastian_ | no only me no other user | 19:41 |
| RenzoreK | I think its a bug in the nvidia drivers working with compiz | 19:41 |
| sebastian_ | it uses my cpu even when i log out | 19:41 |
| sebastian_ | i dont think its only kde | 19:41 |
| RenzoreK | Give me a sec I've got some info for you | 19:41 |
| sebastian_ | but remember its not kde that is the problem | 19:42 |
| sebastian_ | im googling now as well | 19:42 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: If you disable compiz entirely, notice the problem doesn't return, see ===> http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=115916 | 19:42 |
| RenzoreK | A lot of people have noticed this problem with these version of nvidia cards :( | 19:43 |
| sebastian_ | ok thx | 19:43 |
| sebastian_ | finnaly someone answered :p | 19:44 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: No problem, I believe its taken nvidia a while to fix this entirely but they are working on it, theres some tips on that page (if you need them, I don't need them all to make it much better) but there there so you can try them if you need to fix that | 19:45 |
| sebastian_ | ok | 19:45 |
| sebastian_ | but when im on gnome its the same problem and on kde and when i logg off | 19:45 |
| sebastian_ | i hope this wont mess everything up :p | 19:47 |
| sebastian_ | this command dont work sudo envy --uninstall-all | 19:48 |
| RenzoreK | sebastian_: You can uninstall it using adept, sypnatic or anything else if you want. | 19:50 |
| sebastian_ | but i dont even know what to uninstall | 19:51 |
| sebastian_ | im tired of all the problems im thinking about changing distro but i dont want to :P | 19:55 |
| sebastian_ | ubuntu and kubuntu is nice | 19:55 |

| radovich | there is one... sidux. | 19:56 |

| === root is now known as Guest71708 | ||

| sebastian_ | ok | 19:57 |
| sebastian_ | how does it support nvidia? | 19:57 |
| radovich | kubuntu is the only one for me. and believe me... i tried. my hdd is ful of wound from reformatting in the past 6 months. i have tried all of the good distros. kubuntu is best | 19:58 |
| radovich | sebastian_: sidux? | 19:58 |
| sebastian_ | ya | 19:58 |
| radovich | they have a little shell script connected to intall gui wizard that detects proprietry needed harware | 19:59 |
| sebastian_ | ok | 19:59 |
| radovich | then, it connects to server and downloads a package, and puts a module in the kernel | 19:59 |
| radovich | i think :) | 19:59 |
| sebastian_ | it seems a little amature like, the os and the website :p | 19:59 |
| radovich | it recognized my wifi and downloaded a package. | 19:59 |
| radovich | hehe | 20:00 |

| marios | hi | 20:08 |
| marios | can u help me with a problem i have? | 20:08 |
| radovich | what is the problem? | 20:09 |
| radovich | marios: what kind of a problem do you have? | 20:10 |
| marios | i have a single hard drive divided at partitios. i have windows xp sp3 and ubuntu. i tried to boot with xp but a blue screen poped up.so i boot from ubuntu and now i can't mount my hard drive where i have all my documents | 20:11 |
| marios | any ideas? | 20:11 |
| radovich | let me think... | 20:11 |
| radovich | ntfs? | 20:12 |
| tuxy | i want to change my desktop environment into something that looks like a mac. How can i get that wizard? | 20:12 |
| radovich | xp partition is i guess ntfs and itlocked out. | 20:12 |
| marios | yes ntfs | 20:12 |
| radovich | tuxy: baghira | 20:12 |
| radovich | marios: ask in #ubuntu but i think you can force mount it. but ask there before you do anything... | 20:13 |
| mrunagi | !flash | 20:13 |
| sobczyk | there's ntfsfix | 20:13 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:13 |
| tuxy | radovich, is that a command? it doesn't go through | 20:14 |
| radovich | tuxy: in kde there is a baghira looks. install and try that. then go to www.kde-look.org and download some mac like icon theme. it will look exactly like a mac :) | 20:14 |
| radovich | tuxy: baghira is a package you will need to install from adept or apt-get or synaptic | 20:15 |
| tuxy | radovich, when i first runned kubuntu i got this wizard, how can i get that wizard back | 20:15 |
| RenzoreK | tuxy: kde-look.org has plenty of themes if your trying to make it appear like a mac. You will probably need a dockbar also. | 20:16 |
| RenzoreK | oops didnt see radovich got that, thanks radovich | 20:17 |
| tuxy | RenzoreK, i am trying to run that same wizard when i first installed kubuntu | 20:17 |
| radovich | np | 20:17 |
| radovich | tuxy: i am looking for it now... | 20:18 |
| little | http://baghira.sourceforge.net/OS_Clone-en.php | 20:18 |
| radovich | kpersonalizer is the command i think | 20:19 |
| mrunagi | is there a special firefox plugin to play flash? | 20:19 |
| radovich | mrunagi: yes. it installs with restriced extras package | 20:19 |
| coreymon77 | Hi everybody! | 20:19 |
| little | Or maybe kcontrol | 20:19 |
| radovich | hello | 20:19 |
| RenzoreK | tuxy: What for? To reinstall or edit partitions or for any particular reason? | 20:19 |
| mrunagi | how do i install it | 20:20 |
| tuxy | RenzoreK, according to that wizard, it mentioned that you can re-edit those settings | 20:20 |
| little | mrunagi: Go to a page that has Flash (like YouTube) and then click when it asks if you want to install Flash. Then follow the instructions. | 20:20 |
| tuxy | through the "control center" where i don't know where that is at | 20:20 |
| radovich | mrunagi: or: apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 20:21 |
| RenzoreK | !flash mrunagi | 20:21 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about flash mrunagi | 20:21 |
| little | tuxy: Try typing kcontrol into the KDE menu --> Run command box. | 20:21 |
| RenzoreK | tuxy: open a command terminal, and try kcontrol | 20:21 |
| RenzoreK | Maybe thats what you mean? | 20:21 |
| little | Either one. | 20:22 |
| RenzoreK | tuxy: Click the advanced tab there is Disk & Filesystems | 20:22 |
| radovich | alt+f2 and type kcontrol | 20:22 |
| freebird | Hi anybody there to resolve sound on Lenovo Y410 w/kubuntu hardy heron. I have installed all codecs. Amarok shows the file is being played, but no sound is coming. pl. help. | 20:22 |
| blackflag | !kqemu | 20:22 |
| ubottu | kqemu is a kernel module (now free under the GPL license) for speeding up the !QEMU virtual machine. Installation instructions can be found at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/KQEmu | 20:22 |
| radovich | freebird: is there any soond on the system, or not? | 20:23 |
| freebird | no sound at all | 20:23 |
| radovich | run kmix | 20:23 |
| RenzoreK | freebird: 100% sure its no wires, everything is plugged in double checked? And is it Amarok only? Do you get system sounds? | 20:23 |
| radovich | and see if it is muted | 20:23 |
| radovich | when i installed kubuntu, i had sound, on next boot, no sound. it ws muted. | 20:24 |
| radovich | so i unmuted it, and it worked :) | 20:24 |
| freebird | rado, its all checked, im surprised myself too! checked alsaconf, pulse, all basic level and even advanced level possibilities are checked! | 20:25 |
| radovich | freebird: what is the soundcard? and did you checked the switches panel? | 20:26 |
| freebird | Rezo: NO SYSTEM SOUNDS even. Sorry not shouting, just frustration | 20:26 |
| coreymon77 | Dont worry radovich, we've all done something like that before | 20:26 |
| radovich | coreymon77: like what? | 20:26 |
| cuco | hi all, kubuntu-8.10 development here or in #ubuntu+1? | 20:27 |
| coreymon77 | sound not working b/c it is muted | 20:27 |
| radovich | xD | 20:27 |
| coreymon77 | Or some other dumb mistake like that | 20:27 |
| radovich | i did not touch it, it went mute by itself. | 20:27 |
| radovich | freebird: do you have pcm and master, or just one? | 20:28 |
| radovich | so: which is faster and less RAM consuming: KDE or GNOME??? | 20:29 |
| coreymon77 | Ive gone crazy figuring out if something is wrong with my router or cable connection only to remember that I had switched wifi off earlier to save battery on my lappy while at school :p | 20:30 |
| radovich | lool | 20:31 |
| RenzoreK | radovich: Both are pretty much even I would say unless you want to get extremely technical, you could try a diff window manager altogether, maybe XFCE ? | 20:31 |
| coreymon77 | the reason why it is taking me so long to type is because I am currently on irc on my iPod | 20:31 |
| radovich | no thank you... :) i would just like to know that, because i have a bit old laptop, and i need the one desktop environment that runs a bit faster than the other one... | 20:32 |
| freebird | no dear, not muted. pl. dont take for granted dumb mistake. i installed ubuntu and kubuntu on as many as 50 + machines in current year (both Fawn and Heron)with different arch; never faced this. this one is canonical sent cd, kubuntu 8.04 for x86 intel platform. from this cd install- since last 2 days, sound is also not there on a dell latitude 510(old machine) and this lenovo 3000 series Y410(not so old) | 20:33 |
| radovich | in my experience, kde runs a bit faster that gnome. | 20:33 |
| coreymon77 | We're not assuming you are making a dumb mistake freebird, we are just making sure | 20:34 |
| radovich | freebird: i did not think it was a dumb mistake. my ubuntu muted it self. so that was my first guess... maybe it happened to you too. and on first boot i only had one (master or pcm) on next boot i had both | 20:34 |
| radovich | and was muted. | 20:34 |
| radovich | something chaged itself | 20:35 |
| radovich | somehow... | 20:35 |

| kickenfarmer | would it be a better one for what i need to do if so i saw the install code at the top of the chat | 21:11 |
| mefisto__ | kickenfarmer: maybe ask about ubuntu in #ubuntu or you could install kubuntu and have both then decide which is more comfortable | 21:12 |
| Agent_bob | skole there was/is no *buntu 6.04 it's 6.06 but that's irrelavent: i've not heard about that, although it makes sense. you might ask in #ubuntu if no one in here can point you at the answer. also the forums is a good place to look; someone may have already been there/done that. | 21:12 |
| kickenfarmer | ok how do i get to #ubuntu? | 21:13 |

| Agent_bob | EABonney you can ask in #alsa | 21:57 |
| Jampiter | Any USB memory device says it cannot be mounted | 21:57 |

| Jampiter | The automatic mounting system | 21:57 |
| Jampiter | (Plug in and automatically mount) | 21:58 |
| Agent_bob | Jampiter try mounting the device manually | 21:58 |
| Jampiter | How could I do that? | 21:58 |
| Agent_bob | automount is notoriously buggy | 21:58 |
| Agent_bob | Jampiter sudo mount /dev/devicenode /mount/point | 21:59 |
| Jampiter | Umm | 21:59 |
| Agent_bob | example sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt | 21:59 |
| Jampiter | Ok | 21:59 |
| Agent_bob | if you don't know the device sudo fdisk -l should list it for you | 21:59 |
| Jampiter | How do I find out the device node? | 21:59 |
| Agent_bob | Jampiter it will be something on the scsi line. i.e. /dev/sd?? | 22:00 |
| EABonney | Agent_bob thanks I'll give it a try, even if it is beta and has issues it would be better than I have :) | 22:00 |
| Jampiter | I think this is only showing my internal HDD | 22:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ...is the usb device you want to mount plugged in? | 22:01 |
| Jampiter | Yes | 22:01 |
| Jampiter | And switched on | 22:02 |
| Twenty | What kind of file format do you have on your disk drive? | 22:04 |
| Jampiter | On the one I want to plug in? It's an SD card camcorder, so AVI | 22:04 |
