[00:06] can anyone please tell how to unrar files not via terminal? [00:09] whats the kmix for kde4? [00:26] hi, kubuntu set my time +1 hour in the future, but we don't have summer time [00:26] how can I fix that? [00:26] YAOMTC: Do you have /home on a separate partition or logical volume? If so, simple. When you install, be sure to NOT format that partition/LV. I'm not sure what going to 64 bits gets you other than headaches though. [00:26] Unless you really need it, and most people don't, I don't see the point. [00:27] Browser plug-ins and such are an adventure on 64 bit. [00:27] I want to use Cinelerra, that's why. [00:28] It doesn't work well on 32-bit. [00:28] Does it work well with 64 bit? You might want to test with a live CD first. [00:29] It's designed for 64-bit. [00:29] It's the 32-bit version that doesn't work well. === kurumin is now known as kurumin_ [00:34] OLÁ GALERA [00:36] kronoman: estas? [00:37] aca [00:37] Hey all. Is anyone aware of a "checking radio buttons or checkboxes doesn't work correctly" bug in Kubuntu? It happens in Firefox & Epiphany so far. [00:37] kronoman: ahora te paso un link para solucionar el problema de +1 hora. [00:37] ok, gracias [00:37] znoG_, i saw a similer issye ages ago in firefox.. but not recently [00:37] znoG_, and even then - it only seemed to affect some web sites [00:38] nice, update to kubuntu 8.10 devel had been crashed [00:38] dr_Willis: oh ok, this is on *all* websites. [00:39] i would update/upgrade and be sure you are using the latest.. Ive not seen that issue in several months [00:39] dr_Willis: basically if I select a radio button, or click on a checkbox, it appears as a white square. Only when I focus on some other element the checkbox shows up. [00:39] I'm using Kubuntu (Hardy) .. [00:39] Yep. Saw that when it first came out.. [00:39] whens the last time you updated/upgraded? [00:39] znoG_: I see the same thing here. [00:40] i'm just about to do one now, actually. 79 packages need updating. I sincerely doubt it'll fix it but ... never know [00:40] ive not noticed the issue in 3.0.3 [00:40] also, in multiple select lists, any selected item does not show as selected [00:40] Mine is up-to-date. [00:40] znoG, dr_Willis: I have the same issue [00:40] got a web site that it does it at? [00:40] It might be a gecko issue since it affects Firefox + Epiphany. [00:40] I tried Opera and it's fine. Konqueror too. [00:40] Ive not seen the issue in ages. [00:41] Mine does it even with the HTML docs on the local filesystem. [00:41] kronoman: http://www.taringa.net/posts/linux/1616800/%C2%BFSe-te-corri%C3%B3-la-hora-de-la-PC-en-Debian-o-Ubuntu.html [00:41] aguante taringa jaja [00:41] Another bit of ugliness is that KDM often forgets the screen resolution and starts panning. [00:41] nice, heh. [00:42] After I login, the desktop sometimes is also the wrong resolution. I have to reset it back to the correct one. [00:42] i wonder if that's kdm specific [00:42] I haven't used Gnome long enough to know. [00:42] I switched to Gnome this week. I've farewelled KDE ;) [00:42] Gnome is a heck of a lot faster. [00:43] If I could fix this annoying checkboxes/radio buttons/select lists issue, I'd be happy. [00:43] This problem exists in my 7.10 box that I'm using right now and it's there in the latest 8.0.4.1. [00:43] I don't notice any difference in speed between Gnome and KDE on the same hardware. === funkydruid___ is now known as funkydruid [00:45] cilkay, i dont either [00:45] i'm surprised cilkay, nejode and I are having the same issue. There must be lots of other people too. [00:46] i wonder if its not some deeper issue in video drivers, or somthing else.. since its not affecting everyone [00:46] there is a bug report about it [00:46] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk-qt-engine/+bug/220575 [00:46] cilkay, nejode: what graphics driver are you both using? [00:46] i'm using "intel" [00:46] znoG_: funciono, gracias! [00:46] Me too. Q965 chipset [00:46] kronoman: no hay de qué. [00:47] nejode: driver? [00:47] nvidia [00:47] 945GM Chipset here. [00:47] nvidia-glx, the one in the repos [00:48] using nvidia glx here, on 2 machines, and fglrx on another [00:48] exit [00:48] that means that it's not video related [00:48] probably not [00:48] and, if you change your theme to some wacky one [00:48] 'posibally' not. :) [00:48] like the human-inverted one [00:48] the checkboxes and radio buttons start working [00:48] but not the select lists [00:48] my office machine does the same thing and it's an Ati [00:48] Mine is just the stock KDE theme. [00:49] so, intel, nvidia and ati do the same thing [00:49] set it to a OS_X themne.. we all know OS-X is perfect. [00:49] :) [00:49] my work PC does the same thing and it's nvidia too === struktured_ is now known as struktured [00:49] there must be something common to all these PCs [00:50] znoG: I tried changing themes, to no avail... [00:50] im gonna try booting off the live CD [00:50] to see if it happens there [00:50] we'll have to wait for a 3.0X for the fix [00:50] have you got firefox2 hand?? [00:50] handy [00:51] 3.03... 2 doesn't have the problem [00:52] ahh interesting [00:53] and i guess epiphany uses the same engine [00:54] wine chrome.exe [00:54] :) [00:54] hola [00:55] por favor de enviar a un chat en español [00:55] anyone had good luck with compiz?

[05:47] <|Jason8|> Hello all. I just installed Kubuntu. My wireless network adapter is the only source of internet for that computer, and I can't get it to work. [05:47] <|Jason8|> I have a Netgear USB adapter. [05:48] <|Jason8|> Ran ndiswrapper, ran through and stuff. [05:48] <|Jason8|> ndiswrapper lists the adapter as installed and present [05:48] <|Jason8|> but it's not showing up in the network manager. [05:49] Can We assume you read !wifi ? [05:49] !wifi [05:49] Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [05:49] <|Jason8|> oh [05:49] <|Jason8|> d'oh [05:49] <|Jason8|> no [06:10] hello, room... [06:11] !hi [06:11] Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! [06:12] okay, my query, in a nutshell...can adept and synaptic be installed together?...i cannot find any definitive info on this... [06:13] and thank you, folks, for helping... [06:13] Yes you can use either as you like. Although Adept is what is provided by default on Kubuntu [06:14] yes, genii...i was interested in attempting to use the appnr apturl site for installing applications, just as a play around thing...to see what it is like... [06:14] <|Jason8|> Does kubuntu store a file (like fstab or mtab) that keeps all the network interfaces inline? [06:15] apturl site is an incorrect phrasing...appnr site uses the apturl protocol for app installations... [06:15] |Jason8|: /etc/network/interfaces === freaky[t] is now known as fReAkY[t] [06:15] <|Jason8|> genii, thanks. [06:15] <|Jason8|> hmm. only has loopback in there. [06:15] * |Jason8| goes to google [06:16] |Jason8|: However if you want network manager to manage the connections, only the lo interface should be in there [06:16] <|Jason8|> oh. [06:16] <|Jason8|> alright. [06:16] <|Jason8|> heh. [06:16] <|Jason8|> my wireless usb network adapter isn't showing up in the network manager :/ [06:17] thank you, genii...and you, too, obottu... ;-) :-P [06:17] <|Jason8|> ndiswrapper says the drivers are installed and the device is present. [06:17] <|Jason8|> so :/ [06:17] |Jason8|: Does ifconfig show it? [06:17] <|Jason8|> Nope. [06:18] <|Jason8|> I followed the instructions to the T. === fReAkY[t] is now known as freaky[t] [06:19] <|Jason8|> hmm. [06:19] |Jason8|: If it's called for instance wlan0 then try: sudo ifup wlan0 and see if ifconfig shows it then [06:19] <|Jason8|> now I'm getting an invalid driver error via ndiswerapper [06:19] Well that explains partly at least then [06:20] |Jason8|: You need the .inf file but ALSO any .sys files or so that were in the windows driver disk. [06:21] <|Jason8|> genii, do I have to define them via ndiswrapper? [06:23] |Jason8|: I forget the syntax of ndiswrapper. But the idea is put them in someplace like /lib/firmware/wifi then point ndiswrapper to the inf file there, it will use the .sys as neccesary if it's in same place [06:23] <|Jason8|> kk. [06:23] <|Jason8|> got ya. [06:27] <|Jason8|> wtf. [06:28] ? [06:31] <|Jason8|> it's giving me errors now. [06:32] <|Jason8|> couldn't open /path/to/ini/wg111v3.ini: no such file or directory at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper-1.9 line 167 [06:33] Weird [06:37] |Jason8|: ls of the path shows the .inf .sys files there? [06:37] <|Jason8|> yep. [06:38] |Jason8|: You used something like: sudo ndiswrapper -r olddrivername then: sudo ndiswrapper -i /path/inifile.ini ? [06:39] <|Jason8|> oh wait [06:39] (I just installed ndiswrapper to get the man pages etc) [06:39] <|Jason8|> it's an .inf [06:39] what do i need to be able to play quicktime files in my browser? [06:39] <|Jason8|> lol [06:39] libxine1-ffmpeg [06:39] !info libquicktime1 [06:39] libquicktime1 (source: libquicktime): library for reading and writing Quicktime files. In component universe, is optional. Version 2:1.0.0+debian-5 (hardy), package size 414 kB, installed size 1220 kB === david is now known as Guest41626 [06:43] |Jason8|: Any joy yet? I have to leave for sleep soon [06:43] <|Jason8|> genii, no worries. [06:43] <|Jason8|> It's getting late, and I'll probably give up in the next five mins or something :P [06:43] <|Jason8|> Thanks for the help. you've given me some ideas to play with. [06:44] |Jason8|: OK... good luck with it. I'll be back online in about 7 hours from work (for a period of 8 hours) [06:44] <|Jason8|> Haha. Alright. [06:44] Later all [06:44] <|Jason8|> I'll hit you up if I have any more problems. [06:44] <|Jason8|> have a good one.

[19:51] someone has installed the live usb? [19:52] sourcemaker: It means a non-routable IP address is being used. Probably you have one of the sides set to use some address ending in .255 or .0 or the gateway address of a router [19:53] genii: no... it's a xxx.xxx.255.231 adress [19:54] genii: without this software... no home office possible :-) [19:55] hi.

I have... there are no more messages: martian source xxx.xxx.2.24 from xxx.xxx.xxx.231, on dev eth0 === juergen_ is now known as opaknack [19:59] sourcemaker: The likely cause is then that there is no known route from x.x.x.231 to x.x.2.24 === florian_ is now known as The-Compiler [20:01] well... that's possible... because the 2.24 is my home adress... and not my router adress...

All white sounds like no 2D and no 3D [20:05] eg: no video period [20:06] feeble: Conceivably if not an issue with video hardware, the fglrx module may be on some area of hard drive which is corrupting [20:07] genii: yes.

[23:48] can you right click and select properties, then change the open with application [23:48] I wonder if kde4 will have some sort of customiezable/scriptble context menu feature. [23:48] underwraps_2K: i believe so, but how do i locate the app to set it? [23:49] enter unrar in the program name?? [23:50] doh [23:50] that wont work [23:50] unrar by default does not extract [23:50] wha? [23:50] lol [23:50] i am confuzzled [23:50] notice i used the 'e' option to the unrar command earlier [23:51] <------ NOOB [23:51] unrar --help to see all options, you will need to tell it e, or x, to make it actually extract files [23:51] hmmm, when i used it in ubuntu it was in the context menu by default, hwo does one enable that in kubuntu remix? [23:52] unrar has no gui interface.. you most likely do NOT want to make .rar files just run 'unrar e whatever.rar' when you double click on an rar. that will get them to extract everytime ya double click on them.. [23:52] I dont use kde4.. so no idea on kde4.
