[00:03] !diaper [00:03] Sorry, I don't know anything about diaper [00:04] can anyone give me the command to disable visual effects from terminal in KDE? Im in failsafe startup right now because I get a black screen after normal login [00:05] and it only started happening when I enabled effects [00:06] Roger_Klotz: You can disable KWin compositing by setting the Enabled option under [Compositing] to false in ~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc. [00:10] notriddle: where do I add the [compositing] [00:11] Roger_Klotz: The kwinrc is divided into sections. Isn't there a [Compositing] section in it? [00:11] i can get to it after using chmod, but i get line 4: [Compositing]: command not found [00:12] edit kwinrc, it's a configuration file... [00:12] im in failsafe mode, how would I do that in terminal [00:12] Any of you ever use firefox or do you stick with konqueror? [00:12] nano should give a very easy editor... [00:12] emma: I stick with Konqueror, though I know a lot of people use FF. [00:13] So it's not blasphemy to put FF on your kubuntu? [00:13] emma: not at all [00:13] !foss [00:13] freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing [00:13] notriddle: ty for helping a noob [00:13] :D [00:13] emma: It depends on who you talk to. I don't find it blasphemy to do it, though you do get a bunch of new "stuff"... [00:14] can anyone help me with mobile hardware settings? [00:14] notriddle: FF is not a gnome app though eh? [00:14] Roger_Klotz: yw. [00:14] how do i save changes and exit now? [00:14] Roger_Klotz: ctrl+o and then ctrl+x [00:14] emma: It is in some ways a GNOME app, however you can use GNOME apps on KDE, KDE apps on GNOME, XFCE apps on GNOME, XFCE apps on KDE........ [00:15] well i don't really like the idea of putting any GNOME app on my KDE. [00:15] konqueror works pretty well. [00:15] emma: GNOME's main relation with FF is that they provide quite a few pieces of framework for FF, so by installing FF, you install parts of GNOME. [00:16] It would be neat if someone would make a KDE FF [00:16] emma: Okay, then use Konqueror. Actually, I think there is an effort to do that. [00:16] That would be nice. [00:17] emma: also, some folks like opera, but I don't think it's open source [00:17] Nope it's not. [00:17] FF works great for me [00:17] I also don't like how opera tries to do a million things at once. [00:17] fast after a few little tweaks [00:17] yeah [00:18] I like firefox too, my bank website doesn't work in konqueror regardless of the fake user agent [00:18] try #ubuntu-bots, asking what is the best web browser. [00:18] Konqueror keeps asking me to install flash for some websites. I don't want to install or use flash. How do I make konqueror stop asking me about it? [00:18] ardchoille: FF also asks, though in a passive popup instead of a non-passive one. [00:19] I must have turned that off for ff [00:20] Kubuntu just keeps getting better and better :) [00:20] why is everyone in all of my channels bashing ff all of a sudden [00:21] korea [00:22] Opera is closed source but free [00:22] That's what I thought [00:23] opera=bloated piece of poo imo === rajdhani is now known as rajdhani__ [00:23] lets not go there ;) [00:23] well, atleast we can all agree on something [00:23] internet explorer sucks [00:24] ;) [00:24] agreed [00:24] that reminds me, i need to install ie4linux [00:24] why exactly? [00:24] to check what websites i create look like for M$ users :) [00:25] although i'm starting to pay less attention to them, i actually wrote on the site: "Page best viewed with Mozilla Firefox browser under Linux enviroment" :D [00:25] blip-: It's nice that you think about your visitors like that, good job [00:25] Any plans to put pulse audio into kubuntu in one of the next releases? === grubbot is now known as maxbaldwin [00:29] blip-: as long as it is firefox, it really makes no difference what enviroment it is [00:31] coreymon77: true. but it's cool to make them think they aren't getting the best experience by using windows. lol [00:38] hi all [00:39] hi int20 [00:39] how I can detect my dial-up modem in kubuntu? I have samsung r40 laptop [00:40] int20: i did that last summer, you'll need to first find out if you have a winmodem ie windows software based modem or a proper modem. this website was an excellent resource http://www.linmodems.org/ [00:41] blip-: yes I was google this site [00:41] int20: i don't know of any kubuntu/ubuntu specific things that make your linux modem life easier [00:41] blip-: ok, thx :) [00:41] int20: they have a script that will scan and tell you your modem. you're welcome. good luck :) [00:42] !kppp [00:42] Sorry, I don't know anything about kppp [00:42] blip-: this script at linmodems don't gunzipped [00:42] :( [00:42] !modem [00:42] You want to connect via dial-up?

[00:49] i wonder if russia has DSL widespread, specially the western region [00:49] buntu: the window manager it self should let you [00:50] buntu: meaning click the top left icon --> advanced --> fullscreen (although maybe it becomes disabled in 3d games) [00:50] hmm but the max option (top right) dosen't appear so can't do it there = ( [00:51] in games i mean [00:51] oh never tried the left, i see it now thx ill check that = ) [00:52] blip-: hmmmm. can you send me this file? plllls. :) Unfortunately, my ark don't unpack this file. :( [00:52] hello [00:52] hola [00:53] int20: try checking if gunzip is installed on your system [00:53] i love ubuntu [00:54] blip-: yes, gunzip installed on my system [00:54] blip-: it may not be an archive. [00:55] ardchoille: it's just a .gz [00:55] you can rename virus.exe to package.tar.gz and konq sees it as an archive [00:55] file /path/file <- will tell you what it really is [00:55] ardchoille: lol. this one is good i cfilehecked it with [00:56] *checked it with file [00:56] ok [00:56] int20: i can upload it for you, but you should get the decompression problem sorted out. [00:58] blip-: ok. I have find the mirror of linmodems (http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/first.html) now I try download this file from .il location. [00:58] int20: here you go, http://www.quickfilepost.com/download.do?get=0aa7f43412f11f3afa6def9c72694e95 [01:02] blip-: thanks! [01:06] int20: np [01:09] emma: hi, you mentioned pulseAudio a while ago, what exactly does it do for you ? My system sound is currently working in Amarok and skype... is it worth moving to pulse Audio ? thanks [01:11] blip-: I doubt it. I've heard that it lets you adjust volume control differently in each app. [01:11] that's a nice featrue [01:11] *feature [01:12] blip-: They put pulse audio into Ubuntu (gnome version) Hardy, and it caused a lot of people headaches. Kubuntu seems to have wisely avoided that snafu. [01:12] still, pulse audio was put into ubuntu (gnome version) because it is the latest new thing, and eventually kubuntu should probably put it in there, avoiding the mistakes. [01:13] emma: yes i read about that feature... while it sounds cool i don't see any real world benefit. i mean how hard is it to modify volume when i pop in a dvd vs when i was talking on skype. [01:13] pulse audio also lets you play audio on your network I believe. [01:13] actually the reason i'm interested is because my laptop mic doesn't work... neither in sound recorders nor skype... maybe pulse audio will help [01:14] so, i could be wrong about this, I think you could play music through speakers on a machine different from the machine where the files are located. [01:19] u know what i like about linux [01:20] i can ghost a 40 gig hard dirve and make it an 80 gig [01:20] :) [01:21] Bash question here: how do you test to see if an argument to a bash script was supplied or not? [01:21] I'm thinking of something like: if "$1" == "" then [01:22] I suppose I'm a pest--a google search would handle this kind of question.... [01:22] raylitalo: I've found #bash to be a great help with bash scripts [01:22] ardchoille: I need anything that is a great help: what is #bash?

I've set everything up in ccsm and ran compiz --replace, screen just blinks a couple times then back to normal. [03:08] condon, try running from terminal and paste any output [03:09] No whitelisted driver found [03:10] so you don't have xgl working then? [03:11] condon: what video card, drivers are you using? [03:12] sorry, had to log out, lost my title bars and couldn't type anything. [03:12] what do I have to do to set up xgl? [03:12] have you tried to do some compiz stuff? - the first time I used it I couldn't tell it had started [03:13] Yep, tried that too [03:13] no cube, no wobble, no magnification, nothing. [03:13] your title bars going away is compiz working [03:13] and not being able to type in text fields? [03:13] afaik [03:14] well have you set up the vid card to use the right drivers? [03:14] I've got nvidia-glx-new installed, do I need legacy or some other driver? [03:14] that should be fine [03:14] !compiz [03:14] don't know, really new to k and compiz [03:14] Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default.

[03:16] There's really no difference to using it in any other situation [03:16] the titlebars disappearing and focus bugs means you had no window manager running at all [03:16] condon, what does "glxinfo | grep direct" tell you? [03:18] anyway, I have to go [03:18] he went to #compiz I think - thnx [03:19] <_2> so anyone ever have problems using ssh over an adsl modem ? it seems to "refuse conneciotns" [03:19] is there a way to make Mplayer play all embeded flash movies [03:20] one second amdpox, no answer what so ever over there, will check now [03:21] <_2> err _t << [03:21] direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) === _2 is now known as root [03:22] any ideas?

Take care if I'm not back in 3 :) [03:34] _2: they've tried to make it select drivers automagically but it needs lots of work imo... [03:35] question, why is it everytime i use kopete, for YM, it always disconnect [03:36] MellowDude: there is youtube-dl to play them locally - most of the time the cpu maxes for everyone watching youtube on ff [03:38] In korganizer I selected "export to HTML with every save" but it doesn't. A little googleing says this was a bug in 2004 and has been solved. Anyone else have this prob? [03:45] <_2> favro yeah. i'm opposed to dumbing down the os, for the sake of "just works". because enevatably it doesn't "just work" and then you can't fix it either... [03:46] _2: it will prob work in a couple of years - every I guess is supposed to work harder until it does...

[04:07] ANd i can not install VLC continue ! [04:08] does it get far before that error? [04:08] Can you help me ? [04:08] <_2> HUYDQ you need to read the documentation that came with the package and satisfy all it's dependancies first. [04:08] HUYDQ, sudo apt-get install vlc [04:08] Ok [04:08] Install the proper libs and the libs-dev packages perhaps... [04:08] <_2> bazhang 9.5 ? [04:09] or use the version in the repos.. :) much easier to do.. unless youjust have to have the latest [04:09] !info vlc [04:09] vlc (source: vlc): multimedia player and streamer.

[04:10] i am installing [04:10] <_2> bazhang while i totally agree he did specify 9.5 so i didn't assume ignorance for what stupidity could explain [04:10] Thank you `1 [04:11] I install SUCCESSFUL ! [04:11] Thanks EXPERT ! [04:11] HUYDQ, yw [04:11] my dapper has vlc 8.4 - hardy has vlc 8.6... [04:12] <_2> favro yeah that's why i didn't push the "just use the repos" button, seeing that he specified 9.5 so i miss judged another one. [04:12] hehe [04:14] <_2> usually when someone specifies a version they have a reason for it... but then again this is ubuntu isn't it ;/ [04:14] well I'm going to see what vlc 9.5 has to offer :) [04:15] <_2> if it's much improved, tell me and i might see if it will build on dapper [04:15] Is compiz always this much of a pain in the sack and is it worth it if I ever get it running? [04:16] <_2> always a pain. not for some. worth it, no. [04:16] it's not compiz but kubuntu,X and your card [04:16] Well what's keeping my favorites from disappearing out of firefox every time I log out? [04:17] <_2> an .xml [04:17] <_2> in your $HOME/.firefox/ maybe... [04:17] I had the friggen thing working at next to no resolution, got my resolution back by changing the xorg.conf (added the res lines manually) and now it gives me the same line as before (no white listed driver) [04:17] could I have that link one more time?

[04:26] I though sed worked on a per line basis not whole file.. [04:27] <_2> cattail would require knowing the size of the remander of the file [04:27] _2, no it would not. [04:27] Cat/tail has options to do "everything past the first 2 lines' and so forth [04:27] but the man pages are a luittle vague in the syntax [04:28] <_2> dr_willis k i stand 'recerected' [04:28] I belive the impiornt bits was the use of +n vs -n [04:28] hi all, I run hardy 8.04 with kernel 2.6.21-21-gemeric. I' m in the process of setting it up as an nfs client. Does that kernel have nfs support built in? [04:28] <_2> ah yes +2 [04:29] <_2> well in my case +3 but yes. that works too [04:29] <_2> so sed '1,2D' filename == tail +3 filename [04:29] * _2 makes note. [04:30] aha - im thinking head/tail not cat/tail [04:31] * _2 just thought you were useing useless use of cat on it. [04:31] somewhere in the docs I think it mentions the use of +3 vs -3 also.. [04:31] :) [04:31] ages ago i had to use head and tail to cut out the middle of a file.. [04:32] <_2> it's not in the man pages. [04:32] yea.. somthings changed or else its in head not in tail.. [04:32] <_2> pulaski short answer is NO. [04:33] in Tail man page.. [04:33] <_2> pulaski ubuntu kernels only have ramfs built in [04:33] -n, --lines=N [04:33] output the last N lines, instead of the last 10; or use +N to output lines starting with the Nth [04:34] <_2> dapper's version of the man page only has -n, --lines=N [04:34] <_2> output the last N lines, instead of the last 10 [04:34] theres some weird issue going on. [04:34] ibex's works.. as shown..but still prints out a error. [04:34] <_2> hmmm [04:34] tail lines=3 test.txt [04:34] tail: cannot open `lines=3' for reading: No such file or directory [04:34] ==> test.txt <== [04:34] 3 [04:34] 4 [04:35] it 'works' and starts at 3.. but that error message is not properl [04:35] <_2> odd. dapper works. echo -e '1\n2\n3\n4\n5\n6\n7\n8\n9' | tail +3 [04:35] <_2> 3 [04:35] <_2> 4 [04:35] my test file is 'test.txt' with 10 lines in it , 1 through 0 on each line [04:36] <_2> yeah i just used echo to emulate your test.txt [04:37] <_2> try pipeing it and see if it still errors [04:37] <_2> UUoC maybe :) [04:37] tail +2 file cuts the first line on dapper here [04:37] <_2> favro yes here too [04:40] <_2> the +N means everything after and including N [04:40] <_2> line N forward [04:42] <_2> dr_willis oh. --lines= :) [04:42] hey anyone from florida [04:43] <_2> dr_willis you there ? [04:43] _2: hmmm, thanks. As I recall I had nfs set up on my previous edgy distro and I didn't have to do any special config. Per the docs I have I was looking in /proc/filesystems for a sign of nfs and nothing was there. insmod nfs returns "can't read 'nfs': No such file or directory" and although rpc.statd is running rpc.lockd is not. Could you or anyone else here tonight suggest a link to a comprehensive set of docs for nfs [04:43] client config? Does the nfs-common package have docs for this? [04:44] <_2> dr_willis tail --lines=+3 test.txt [04:45] <_2> pulaski the support for all file systems are in modules on ubuntu, even ext# the initramfs.img "still called initrd by some" is supposed to insert any needed modules, to support your root file system.

Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [04:55] if it powers up tonight that is [04:56] already have intreped [04:56] going for 8.04.1 [04:57] so what is everyone running? [04:57] <_2> was supported, now is a community port pfft. [04:58] Yea.. look at all the great support they still get from apple... [04:58] :) [04:58] lol ya [04:58] well it was a free pc [04:58] Ive never had much luck with linux on my imacDV [04:58] i am sure not gona buy an operating system for it [04:58] the monitor was always off possition about 1/2 an inch. [04:59] I got OS-X on it from ages ago. [04:59] <_2> os your x [04:59] OS-XXX with porn themes [04:59] well i looked to just down load one [04:59] <_2> os all your x's [04:59] but couldnt find one [05:00] so ubuntu will do [05:00] * _2 waits for the is _2 a bot ? [05:00] each time i go to the resolution panel i get a black screen telling me my screen can't fit the resolution, what can i do ? [05:00] *buntu is sooo sexy anyway [05:02] <_2> dr_willis you use mplayer, what am i doing wrong with mplayer -vo svga file.avi ? [05:02] what card? [05:03] <_2> dr_willis it errors with "Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device. [05:04] so svga isn't a device you should use maybe? [05:04] It may not have support for the svga device. for the console ive used the framebuffer drvice [05:05] <_2> the man page says it does, if that's worth two shamrocks bob's your uncle [05:05] those features may or may not be compiled into a specific mplayer. [05:06] i normally use the -vo fbdev [05:06] <_2> ok so bob is not your uncle ... [05:06] <_2> but i'm not using fbcon [05:06] for console playback.. but i noticed that when doing that - i had to run mplayer as root. [05:06] <_2> so that's out. [05:06] You may be stuck then. [05:07] * _2 sticks me "yep i'm stuck" [05:07] or there may be some weird configuring to get svga working [05:07] hi folks, can anyone tell me how to compile a module in ubuntu? I'm having trouble getting the kernel version of the module right. modinfo shows the module version to be 2.6.27-2 while the kernel is 2.6.27 [05:07] mplayer -vo help shows svga here also [05:07] <_2> i use svgalibs in vlc tho so if there some "weird configuring" it will be mplayer side. [05:07] <_2> k i'll read some more. [05:08] it might be the vid card not supporting that option? [05:08] its possible the medibuntu release of mplayer may be compiled with different options then the stnadard mplayer also [05:10] Last question then I'll leave you fine people alone for the night. [05:10] <_2> dr_willis i think you're right. using the help feature of mplayer the svga is not listed so probably not built in. "raza amacken fraten!" [05:10] Got it all up and running fine, but fiddled in ccsm and now I can't get my cube rotating...where do I apply the mouse settings for rotating the cube? [05:11] I was actually looking for the setting to push the cube back some (zoom out while spinning it) and somewhere along the way I've turned off the rotation [05:11] _2, i belive i AM using the mplayer from medibuntu on all my machines [05:12] <_2> ok. thanks. "disgruntled goes away..." [05:12] now when I use the scroll button (pushing it down) I get a menu to 'unclutter windows', cascade windows, and a list of open aps [05:13] hiya _2 [05:13] <_2> condon hehhe first thing, is to figure out what file/s and dir/s in your home to reset all to default so you can play with it enough to learn it [05:14] <_2> mr---t- shalom === root is now known as Guest36974 [05:14] mplayer -vo caca filename [05:14] lol, would happily go back to the beginning and tweak from there [05:16] <_2> micha_ heh you mean asc2 mode o.O [05:17] oops [05:19] Can anyone tell me how to reset it back tot he beginning without resetting (compiz) [05:19] Nevermind [05:19] just fixed it [05:20] condon: what was the vid card issue? [05:20] or how did you fix it/ [05:21] s/\//?/ [05:21] <_2> s=/=\==g [05:22] Went into the right setting. Kept looking in general and Desktop Cube rather than...rotate cube [05:22] again, very new [05:22] <_2> condon actually i think he was asking about the former issue with your card and driver [05:22] that sorted the vid driver? [05:23] As for the vid card...um...I don't freaking know, but it works, so, I won't ever touch any aspect of the display itself again :) Ended up setting the hor/vert refresh rates manually in xconf (pico I think) [05:23] <_2> see [05:23] what _2 said :) [05:23] hehe [05:23] <_2> oh it's the magical "reboot will fix anything" because ubuntu "just works" answer lol [05:23] then did the whole sudo invidia-xconfig thing and restarted x [05:24] lol, yeah, several reboots. [05:24] * _2 head desk [05:24] not dissing ubuntu, best distro I've come across (easiest to work with anyway). Comp was a pain in every distro I've tried, I didn't even have to find new repositories for this one :) [05:26] debian did a good job :) [05:26] <_2> condon they are trying exceptionally hard to make it a painless as possable. and if things go a projected, the 9.4 kubuntu will have all the affects OoB [05:26] <_2> s=a=as=g [05:26] effets are important [05:27] Sweet. It's really worth it in the long run, just to see the look on peoples' faces when they come over and I've got snow falling against my wintery background, or leaves in the autum. So worth it. [05:27] Then you spin the cube and people about crap themselves. [05:27] <_2> seeing my console has that affect on people too.... ;/ [05:27] hi folks, can anyone tell me how to compile a module in ubuntu? I'm having trouble getting the kernel version of the module right. modinfo shows the module version to be 2.6.27-2 while the kernel is 2.6.27 [05:28] lol, haven't even played with the console yet :) I know you can make it spiffy [05:28] <_2> spawn57 version is ls /lib/modules/ [05:29] ok time to try my new ubuntu :) [05:29] does the clock have to be in 24 hour format? [05:29] you actually stat to use the cube..and wonder why people care about such c***p :) [05:29] wish me luck [05:29] <_2> aman no [05:30] aman, you can set the timeformat in the time perferances/settings [05:30] but then you need to somehow restart the clock. [05:30] logout/in is one way.. or theers some other command that does it. [05:31] <_2> remove it from the panel and add it back. [05:31] <_2> err maybe not. [05:31] how? [05:31] dr_willis? [05:31] <_2> this is kde, right click everything. [05:31] give us your passwd and we do it via ssh for you aman [05:32] ok, so I freakin lied, where do I change my window decorations in compiz?

[05:36] I removed scim also.. it had some issues [05:36] amdpox, I'm very much not in the mood. I have a paper due in 48 hours and I'm really not in the mood [05:37] i found that scim kept trying to connect/do things.. and waw slowing down kde4. so i removed the scim package [05:37] level1_, may I suggest using a more stable DE at least until you've got that paper out of the way? [05:38] KDE4 has been slow and buggy for me [05:38] kde4 is very much a work in progress.. i agree.

[06:09] each time i go to the resolution panel i get a black screen telling me my screen can't fit the resolution, what can i do ? [06:09] the fix is to use kdesu instead of sudo to run apps as root [06:10] what graphic card maxagaz [06:10] maxagaz: in konsole what does xrandr return [06:10] lspci | grep -i vga [06:10] ok. I'm guessing the permissions change when I run KDE apps from fluxbox, which I use when I want to play windows games through wine since it's faster.

[06:12] favro: i don't remember [06:12] hehe [06:12] favro: but i can't go to this panl anymore [06:12] why [06:12] ok, i'll try that. or I can just learn how to use vim and how to change permissions from the terminal, since the only KDE apps I use from fluxbox are Kate and Dolphin. [06:13] dolphin in flux chrisruls00 - that's sad - try thunar for the lighter desktop [06:13] chnmod --help chrisruls00 [06:14] and use nano or pico ... vi(m) drives you nuts :) [06:14] +1 nano - ctrl+o to write - ctrl+x to close [06:15] ok, I'll try thunar. I've only had linux for a year and I've still got a lot to learn about the command line. My dad bought me a big book about linux and the bash shell but with school I haven't been able to read it. [06:15] micha_: because each time I go to the resolution panel, i get a black screen, so I have to reboot [06:17] maxagaz: i can only guess that you try to set a resolution that your card can't handle [06:18] sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak [06:18] sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [06:18] do that in the terminal [06:18] micha_: yes, but to be able to go back to this panel, it's bugged now [06:19] [13:18] sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak [06:19] [13:18] sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [06:19] [13:18] do that in the terminal [06:19] hey how can i get a list of processes that are bugging up my system from a console in order to kill it? [06:20] top or htop spragie [06:20] micha_: i think changing something in the conf of kde should solve the problem, don't you ? [06:20] micha_: whats the diff?

[11:24] ribeiro: it prob uses the vesa driver but what does xrandr return? [11:26] !pm | ribeiro [11:26] ribeiro: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. [11:26] vesa [11:26] ok [11:26] vou tentar usa-lo [11:26] xrandr? [11:26] ok [11:26] thanks [11:27] kubuntu is so musical lol. [11:28] hahaha just crashed knotify [11:29] Someone could do an "uname -r" and post the output for me? [11:29] (some kubuntu user please) [11:30] ok [11:30] I should return the kernel version you're using :) (I need to know for grub) [11:30] 2.6.24-21-generic [11:30] RurouniJones: latest kubuntu version? [11:30] That is the latest 8.04 released kernel [11:30] thx [11:30] no guarantees that your system is using it though [11:30] !info linux-image [11:30] linux-image (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image.. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.24.21.23 (hardy), package size 25 kB, installed size 52 kB [11:31] my "uname -s" returns: "linux" :/ [11:31] thank you :) [11:32] try uname -a [11:32] jannott: that's forrect for -s, -r returns kernel version and -a gives all :) [11:32] oh typo lol [11:33] Is there a cli command to open any file in the app associated with the file's extension/association? [11:34] yes, a kde helper.. [11:34] I just need to figure out how it was called again :) [11:34] hey hey [11:34] why doesn't kubuntu automaticaly updates time? [11:35] today the hour changed to an hour backwards, but on my kubuntu it didn't change :/ [11:35] didn't it? (all my other machines did, don't have a kubuntu one here) [11:36] might be the wrong locale or timezone [11:38] or auto-adjust is disabled [11:38] ardchoille: are you listening? [11:38] Mirrakor: how do i turn auto-adjust on? [11:40] Mirrakor: yes [11:41] DarkSmoke: good question I don't find it atm, but I think there was a switch somewhere (but since it should be on by default and you don't remember chaning it, it'll probably still be on :) ). I'd check the timezone as favro suggested [11:41] Mirrakor: I used it before but can't remember how it's called [11:41] ardchoille: kfmclient exec
[11:42] i found it [11:42] Mirrakor: that's it, thank you :) [11:42] (either use file:///home/foo/bar/file.bar or /home/foo/bar/file.bar ) [11:42] right click on the clock, adjust, and there's an option to automatic clock [11:45] favro: there is something wrong with the network tools in kubuntu edition maybe [11:46] kcm_networkconfmodule [11:46] male33nrw: that is my impression [11:46] maybe kde3 release works better ? [11:46] hmm [11:47] i´m not shure [11:47] I only use kde in virtualbox and the network works ok there [11:48] if that helps [11:48] i see [11:48] it might be a local issue for you maybe... [11:53] maybe i should use gnome instead [11:53] i guess there are a lot of errors in kde [11:55] male33nrw: what network h/ware are you using/ [11:55] favro: what do you mean ? [11:56] normal class c home network :)) [11:57] i read: when installing kde3 version of kcm_knetworkconfmodule it should work [11:57] but i don´t know [11:58] lspci | grep Eth will tell the h/ware [12:01] i see it is a realtec card [12:01] i see it is a realtek card [12:01] 8139 [12:02] and the remote desktop in kde is nothing [12:03] i guess i must use x11vnc or something like that === alexandre is now known as Guest83561 [12:06] By the way, will there still be a KDE 3.5 option in Kubuntu 8.10? [12:08] no ibex only has kde4 afaik - #kubuntu-kde4 to check that :) === sunil is now known as spawn57 [12:12] i was trying 8.04 [12:12] i now downloadin version 8.10 [12:12] maybe it works better [12:12] mayber there the mistake [12:14] male33nrw: did someone in #kubuntu-kde4 suggest that? [12:15] no they don´t answer at all [12:15] :) [12:15] that happens :) [12:15] yes [12:15] it might still be early for them [12:16] where are you from favro ? [12:16] Australia [12:16] you male33nrw ? [12:16] i´m from germany [12:17] hong kong here [12:18] uii far away from me [12:18] but we speak the same language! :D [12:18] yes we try :) [12:19] that´s cool [12:19] ah, I see I'm not the only one that uses smiely faces [12:20] male33nrw: I thought english was your first language from what you typed - well done :) [12:20] thanks a lot favro [12:20] no german is my first language [12:20] no accent at all ;) [12:21] hehehe [12:21] amercian accent here.. [12:21] i' not familiar with that accent spawn :D :P [12:21] i try my best :) [12:21] * i'm [12:21] heh [12:22] hope now kubuntu 8.10 release works better [12:22] than 8.04? [12:22] yes [12:22] yeah kde 4 is better [12:23] in 8.10 [12:23] i hope so [12:23] still buggy though [12:23] plasma stilll crashes on my ass [12:23] in 8.04 kde4 no network config manualy works [12:23] in kde [12:23] there is a module wrong [12:24] male33nrw: do you have kde3 as well? [12:24] no [12:24] k [12:24] do you think i should try kde3 ? [12:24] i need it only for a old pc [12:25] old pc, dont use kde [12:25] depends a bit on how old offcourse [12:26] heh [12:26] 900 mhz 500 mb ram [12:26] ? [12:26] :) [12:26] maybe better to use xubuntu xfce [12:26] i did this before [12:26] but networking is crap [12:27] accessing smb shares [12:27] Hey guys. I know this probably isn't a smart idea, but I was wondering if it is possible to create two accounts that have the same home directory using Linux (not necessarily Kubuntu) [12:27] same home dir? [12:27] Yup. [12:27] that's gonna be tough.. [12:27] what a idea [12:28] it's oki to share the same settings? [12:28] maybe with link: ln [12:28] Symlinking. Never thought of that. [12:29] Thanks Freku [12:29] that'll work, or you can set the home dir by doing usermod -s /home/user1 user2 [12:29] oops wiat [12:29] usermod -d /home/user1 user2 [12:30] That is awesome. Thanks very much guys. [12:30] :) [12:30] np [12:30] why setting up two users with same home dir ? [12:31] wondering [12:31] they are twins :) [12:31] maybe [12:31] Lqtm. [12:31] freku:do you have kubuntu 8.10 installed ? [12:32] no [12:32] spawn57 ? you ? [12:32] I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed. [12:32] oh nice [12:32] 8.10 today [12:32] was a pain.. I'm a big kde 3.5.10 fan [12:33] could you try starting in knetworkmanager the manual configuration button ? [12:33] does a window appear ? [12:33] I really like KDE4, but would rather wait until everything I want is ported to KDE4... I'm a consistency freak. ;) [12:34] back to debian then [12:34] :) [12:34] spawn57 ? [12:35] tphilosopher: same here, but I've got a bleeding edge fetish... [12:35] got me into trouble today :| [12:35] hihi [12:35] male33nrw: one sec [12:35] yes [12:35] hi [12:35] if you get older you learn to control that and wait a few weeks [12:35] As for why I'm interested in creating two users using the same directory. I was just hoping to test how well using another user account as a sandbox would be. My idea involves third party software running as the sandbox user and distribution repository software running as the normal user (as it is presumably trusted). [12:35] :) [12:36] male33nrw: seems to be working, it detected my card and found my wifi outta the box [12:36] The normal user account would be able to edit files created by the sandbox user but not the other way around. Settings and files are safe from being tampered with. [12:36] i hope it doesnt give rights on files problems [12:36] ah you use wifi [12:36] i´m using wired connection [12:37] male33nrw: naw, wired [12:37] male33nrw: alright lemme check that for you too [12:37] when you right click on the icon there is a point manual configuration because i need a static ip [12:37] Freku: I'll try this in a VM. [12:38] k [12:38] the window pops up.. [12:38] cool [12:38] with interfaces ? [12:38] but I'm afraid to configure it, i did a dist-upgrade... [12:38] it show's eth1 .... lemme check if that's right.. [12:39] yeah it's right, but it doesn't show it as 'configured' even though I did configure it. Try it out though. Seems alright [12:39] i guess it is right [12:39] The only problem I currently foresee is when a file is created by the normal user (say using OpenOffice) and then the use a third party AbiWord. Usability issue. [12:40] thanks spawn than i will test it :) [12:41] np [12:42] Of course, there's also configuration settings being edited as well. Same basic problem though. [12:45] hmmm what´s about cooking ? [12:45] 8.01? [12:45] 8.10 even [12:46] i´m hungry but don´t know [12:46] this is strange I am missing pixels above and below the monitor just enough to be uncomfortable but not enough to hurt functionality [12:46] overall seems a lot better than last time I tried kde/kubutu compiz out of the box nice ;-) [12:47] !ibex | ubuntu [12:47] ubuntu: Alpha Software: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for K/ubuntu 8.10, due October 30th 2008 - #ubuntu+1 for discussion.

[14:24] yea you can [14:26] my first attempt at kubuntu 8.10 RC now: splash screen for a loong time, finally the nice intro tune, and at the same time a niiice fade to ....black...? I know it's a RC, but I kind of expected something like this to not happen === root is now known as Guest32207 [14:29] metellius: I think any 8.10 support is handled in #ubuntu+1, but i cam running 8.10 and it worked fine for me [14:30] adz21c: I just found the problem. although it is the same as I had before on an opensuse computer, it looked different [14:31] metellius: what is the problem out of curiosity? [14:31] scim leaves some temprorary files under tmp, and if they're not cleaned up properly, scim will basically ruin startup of ANYTHING using a gui element [14:31] hi.. is there any program that captures screen just like fraps? [14:31] once I get it fixed I'm going to see if there's a bug report [14:32] I downloaded KDE4 and i got KDE 4.0,3 with ubuntu 8.04, is it possible to download 4.1 over this environment ? [14:32] but kubuntu developers should really have a look at scim, it has been in the way many many times and is in the need of fixing very bad. [14:32] pronoy: there is a ppa with 4.1 in it, go to #kubuntu-kde4, someone will know ther, and i bet the link is in the channel topic [14:33] metellius: what does scim do, i never looked into it before === hfsdo_ is now known as hfsdo === avihayb_ is now known as avihayb [14:36] adz21c: it's a framework for input in non-alphabet languages [14:36] chinese etc [14:36] oh ok cool [14:38] !scim [14:38] Chinese, Japanese, Korean Language input.

[14:46] im having probs with resolution. its a nvidia gf4 ti4200 [14:47] myPup-Anonymuous: did you download the nvidia packages ? [15:00] hello.. is "kdesdk" the binary for kate? [15:00] ie, the binary to be pointed to while reporting a kate bug? [15:02] don't think so... [15:02] the binary is probably, well, "kate"? [15:02] not sure glade88. [15:02] 'kdesdk' sounds like it'd be related to sound and kde, but that's just my guess. [15:03] kdesdk would be the kde software development kit [15:04] jdnewmil's right. [15:04] well, apt-cache showsrc kate shows kdesdk [15:04] what do you need the binary for? [15:04] to point to the binary package while reporting kate bugs [15:05] I think there's a crash application that sends it to launchpad for you...? and it'll include the package [15:05] or at leash it was in GNOME [15:05] *least [15:05] max [15:05] oops [15:05] "which kate" [15:05] yes? [15:05] maxbaldwin: well, apport? no, I dont hve a crash [15:07] I dunno then, maybe someone else will. [15:08] :) [15:08] hello dominik, need something? [15:08] jdnewmil: well, which would not probably help me.. for ex, which dolphin returns /usr/bin/dolphin, which should mean dolphin is the binary.. but actually, dolphin was merged to kdebase [15:09] jdnewmil: thanks for the reply though :) [15:09] Hi, no thanks :D Just testing the Konversation programm 'cause it's new to me ;) [15:09] Is it only English? [15:10] I'm not sure! [15:10] glade88: your use of the term binary is ... odd ... I have always equated that with the executable file, not a package name [15:11] Not? Oh okay. Just because originally i'm from germany and well...my English isn't that well as I could talk here if it's only English. Don't know it :D [15:12] very strange, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/116635 -- is a kate bug showing kdebase as package, while https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdesdk/+bug/259772 points to kdesdk [15:13] dominik: the program is language neutral... the channel may be language specific by convention [15:13] jdnewmil: "Affects" package should be the binary, afaik. was told so by a developer :) [15:13] dominik: however, there's a specific channel for german-ubuntu or kubuntu I believe [15:14] !ge | dominik [15:14] dominik: ქართული ენაზე დახმარების მიღებისთვის გთხოვთ შემობრძანდით #ubuntu-ge / Kartuli enaze dakhmarebis mighebistvis gtkhovt shemobrdzandit #ubuntu-ge [15:15] Yes right, there is one but there are no people :D [15:18] uhh.... then I can't help.
