| puggg | question: I was here yesterday, b/c I had trouble starting Kubuntu 8.10 live CD. When I got the blotchy screen, I hit ctrl+alt+backspace, and that got rid of the blotchy screen and started KDE 4.1. What does ctrl+alt+backspace accomplish in Linux? | 00:36 |
| william__ | puggg: it restarts the X server | 00:36 |
| puggg | ok stoopid question: Why couldn't X start right to begin with so that it doesn't have to be restarte? | 00:36 |

| william__ | puggg: it's a weird problem. i remember back in th day i used to have to restart my computer twice everytime because windows wouldnt see my cdrom. | 00:37 |
| DaSkreech | TekkieFreak: Bedded the children? | 00:38 |
| puggg | strange b/c it's only a prob on 8.10 Kubuntu, not Ubuntu or Xubuntu | 00:38 |
| TekkieFreak | Heh, nope...they are awake still | 00:38 |
| puggg | a kde thing I guess? | 00:38 |
| DaSkreech | burn_: sudo apt-get install autopackage | 00:38 |
| william__ | puggg: yeah could be some weird bug in kde or the driver | 00:39 |
| puggg | I have an nvidia 57xx card | 00:39 |
| DaSkreech | puggg: nvidia has known problems with KDE | 00:39 |
| burn_ | DaSkreech there is n autopackage but i find out :D | 00:39 |
| puggg | Da: But, my installed KDE (openSUSE 10.0 w/KDE 4.0.x) works fine | 00:39 |
| puggg | er os 11.0 | 00:40 |
| smitty | anyone using kde 4.0 on kubuntu | 00:40 |
| TekkieFreak | smitty: I have kde4 on ubuntu install | 00:40 |
| DaSkreech | puggg: With driver problems you have three kinds persistent intermittent and latent | 00:40 |
| TekkieFreak | DaSkreech: They are playing Animal Crossing at the moment. | 00:41 |
| smitty | I am switching from opensuse 11.0 with kde3 to kubutnu 8.10 | 00:41 |
| DaSkreech | You seem to have hit an intermittent one :) | 00:41 |
| smitty | will I like it | 00:41 |
| DaSkreech | TekkieFreak: Ha ha My friend >just< asked me if I knew someone with Animal crossing | 00:41 |
| smitty | animal crossing is awesome | 00:41 |
| DaSkreech | smitty: Thats' an interesting question | 00:42 |
| TekkieFreak | smitty: kde4 has lots of eye candy...but it's not as configurable as 3.5 | 00:42 |
| puggg | ok thanks much | 00:42 |
| smitty | sorry was not direct on the question Tekkie you answered it perfect | 00:43 |
| smitty | that is what I meant to ask | 00:43 |
| TekkieFreak | Animal crossing is pretty fun...the kids love it. | 00:43 |
| smitty | my wife and mom love it too | 00:43 |
| DaSkreech | So does she apparently she's trying to find a town to visit | 00:44 |
| PsiKloPx | DaSkreech: so if nvidia has known problems, should I use a different driver than the (recommended) NVidia driver? | 00:44 |
| william__ | it seems like k/ubuntu is drifting farther away from xorg.conf but it always autodects wrong values and i correct them in xorg.conf. is there a way to tell it during install or upgrade what my hrrefresh, vcync are | 00:44 |
| DaSkreech | PsiKloPx: The latest one fixes a lot of the problems | 00:44 |
| TekkieFreak | Oh...we don't have ours online. | 00:44 |
| DaSkreech | william__: Xorg is deprecating xorg.conf | 00:45 |
| smitty | how is kubuntu on driver support compared to opensuse | 00:45 |
| DaSkreech | go speak to them | 00:45 |
| smitty | namely wifi drivers | 00:45 |
| TekkieFreak | I was too cheap to buy the microphone for it and the kids are too little to be chatting online. | 00:45 |
| DaSkreech | Oh you can get the mic separate? | 00:46 |

| kpath | I have a weird problem! A user typed 'something' in a 8.04 installation and since then he can't really use the keyboard any more. When he tries to type a char ... | 01:37 |
| kpath | he has to keep the key pressed for a while and then this key gets typed twice! | 01:37 |
| ott0 | how can i just edit the first X bytes of a file, or the first X lines? without loading the rest into memory | 01:37 |
| kpath | any help is much appreciated. Thanks | 01:38 |
| DaSkreech | ott0: sed | 01:38 |
| DaSkreech | kpath: "since then" how long has this been going on? | 01:39 |
| mister-tea | pedro: look here for some info https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/278190 | 01:39 |
| kpath | it goes like this forever! | 01:40 |
| ott0 | okay, but is there an easier way, like tell vim to only load a certain amount or something? i'd rather have interactive editing since i need to edit a shell script, but undernead the script there's 500mb of machine code (i think) and it's crashing the editors i try to open with | 01:40 |
| DaSkreech | kpath: upon reboot etc? | 01:40 |
| kpath | yes indeed | 01:40 |
| kpath | reboot doesn't cahnge anything | 01:40 |
| kpath | in the meantime I created another user in the system and this one doesn't have that problem! | 01:41 |
| DaSkreech | when were they typing this thing in? | 01:41 |
| kpath | so must be something in the profile of that particular user! | 01:41 |
| kpath | in any place! | 01:41 |
| |TJ| | i wornder why my computer wont keep the time. | 01:41 |
| kpath | as long as you try to use the keyboard | 01:41 |
| pedro | ok im going take a look in that url tanks for yor help | 01:41 |
| * mister-tea feels comfort when people type as poorly as him | 01:42 | |
| kpath | I looked in the System settings for the keyboard but everything there were set to default! | 01:43 |
| ott0 | wait, can sed do interactive editing? | 01:44 |
| kpath | the user told me that before this behavior a message appeared in the screen and she cleicked on 'OK'! | 01:44 |
| kpath | but can't remember what the message was about! | 01:44 |
| william__ | how can i make desktop sharing not ask for the password. i unchecked the box but it still asks me everytime :S | 01:45 |
| DaSkreech | kpath: You said they typed in something then this happened. What were they typing and when? | 01:47 |
| DaSkreech | ott0: no | 01:47 |
| DaSkreech | kpath: What were they doing? | 01:48 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: that's my problem! :( I don't have more info on that! The user couldn't help me any further! :( | 01:48 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: everything took place after the user said 'yes' to a pop-up screen! | 01:49 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: but couldn't give me any more details | 01:49 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: I was wondering which part of the system could turn the keyboard to react in this strange way? | 01:50 |
| |TJ| | i installed kbfx how do i remove the kmenu button | 01:50 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: even if I try to use the virtual keyboard, it doesn't work! I clicl on the keys and they don't get displayed! | 01:51 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: so must be something general with the functional part of the keyboard | 01:52 |
| DaSkreech | kpath: That's pretty serious | 01:52 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: like I choose to almost block it! | 01:52 |
| |TJ| | i installed kbfx how do i remove the kmenu button | 01:52 |
| DaSkreech | Did you try a different Keyboard? | 01:52 |
| |TJ| | nevermind | 01:52 |
| |TJ| | i got it | 01:53 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: no I didn't but the h/w should't be a problem! When I leave KDE and go to console mode everything works fine! | 01:53 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: the keyboard reacts. Also if I log-in as a different user in KDE everything works fine as well | 01:54 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: so this users profile is somehow different in KDE! | 01:54 |
| kpath | DaSkreech: how can I find that in the system? | 01:55 |
| mister-tea | delete the user and recreate him | 01:55 |
| mister-tea | ? | 01:56 |
| kpath | mister-tea: was your reply for my case? | 01:57 |
| mister-tea | it was an idea | 01:57 |
| kpath | mister-tea: well I try to avoid that cause I have to re-create all its settings! | 01:58 |
| mister-tea | k | 01:58 |
| kpath | mister-tea: also file permissions etc. etc. | 01:58 |
| mister-tea | have you checked in keyboard preferences? | 02:02 |
| kpath | mister-tea: you mean from the System Settings? | 02:03 |
| mister-tea | yeah | 02:03 |
| kpath | mister-tea: yes I did and everything is on default | 02:03 |
| mister-tea | I'm just trying to think of what could cause this | 02:04 |
| cuznt | maybe it was satan | 02:04 |
| kpath | mister-tea: that's what I try to find out too! :( | 02:04 |
| kpath | mister-tea: but must be a setting like this somewhere! | 02:05 |
| mister-tea | I was thinking that one of those accesability settings got screwed up | 02:05 |
| kpath | mister-tea: in which place? | 02:06 |
| mister-tea | in the settings there is a place to set for sticky keys and such for the hanicapped | 02:06 |
| burn__ | c ya ppl l8r, off to reinstall kubuntu :D | 02:06 |
| kpath | mister-tea: you mean in the Accessibilty tab? I can see that there are some settings there for the keyboard! I'll have a look | 02:07 |
| emma | I did the latest update. | 02:07 |

| dhuv | its great until I standby and come back | 02:11 |
| dhuv | does anybody know what I have to restart to get that to work again | 02:11 |
| kpath | mister-tea: BINGO! It was this Accessibility thing. In the 'Keyboard Filters', 'Slow Keys' was enabled! | 02:12 |
| Skyfury | how to tell network manager to use another device?? | 02:12 |
| kpath | mister-tea: THANKS A LOT for your help! | 02:12 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: you mean connect to a different AP? | 02:12 |
| mister-tea | cool kpath glad to help[ | 02:13 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: no my nm just want to handle my eth0 - i have wlan0 too but its not appering in nm | 02:13 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: when you do "ifconfig -a" do you see anything besides eth0 and lo? | 02:15 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: the card is working finem yeh | 02:15 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: do you have this problem when you login as a different use on the system? | 02:15 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: equal which user i am, the nm just shows me the eth0 | 02:16 |
| dhuv | wondering if it is something screwed up with your .kde profile | 02:16 |
| DaSkreech | kpath: I think if your press the shift key 5 times that happens | 02:16 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: also if i check iwlist wlan0 scanning - my ap appears x_X | 02:16 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: are you running Intrepid? | 02:17 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: yes i am | 02:17 |
| dhuv | I have seen some bugs on launchpad regarding knetworkmanager and wireless | 02:17 |
| dhuv | someone people have had luck reinstalling that package | 02:18 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: i tried near everything - for me nm dont want to use another device instead of eth0 | 02:18 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: perhaps you can try starting it from the command line in a terminal so you can see the startup messages | 02:19 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: already done, everything seems to be fine | 02:19 |
| dhuv | wow, that is weird | 02:20 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: yeah, my head is smoking :\ | 02:20 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: I have to ask, have you done an "ifconfig wlan0 up" and restarted knetworkmanager? | 02:21 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: i can even add a wireless network in the nm O.o | 02:21 |
| dhuv | but how can you even see them if the interface is not recognized | 02:22 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: its my first time for this nm, i can safely remove it with apt-get? | 02:23 |
| dhuv | which one are you using? | 02:23 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: wadda you mean which one? | 02:23 |
| dhuv | I have network-manager-kde & network-manager packages installed | 02:23 |
| dhuv | which packages do you have installed | 02:24 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: yeah its a clean install | 02:24 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: just installed intrepid kubuntu on my pc yesterday | 02:24 |
| dhuv | it should be safe to remove them and reinstall them, the network managers only help you connect to the inet. they are not required. If you know which commands to issue manually, then you do not need those packages | 02:25 |
| OxDeadC0de | If you installed ubuntu first(gnome) then kde-desktop you'll have two running when you start kde and or gnome, the resolution is to add OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE; to /etc/xdg/autostart/nm-applet.desktop | 02:25 |
| dhuv | make sure you know how to issue the commands manually, or you will not be able to connect to the inet :) | 02:25 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: sure i know, but i wanted to use this package :\ | 02:26 |
| OxDeadC0de | and a similar line to knetworkmanager-autostart.desktop or whatever network manager you may have installed for kde | 02:26 |
| dhuv | another thing you may want to do is a --reinstall for those packages first, this way they are in apt's cache | 02:26 |
| Skyfury | OxDeadC0de: im sure i dont have gnome on my pc :) | 02:26 |
| dhuv | so when you go do an install, it does not need to be downloaded | 02:26 |
| OxDeadC0de | skyfury: lucky :P | 02:26 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: it should work, I has worked for me for since Gutsy | 02:26 |
| dhuv | Fiesty actually | 02:26 |
| Skyfury | mmh | 02:27 |
| OxDeadC0de | skyfury apparently also network manager has a problem with static ip's for the moment, it may have been resolved i have no idea since i use dhcp | 02:27 |
| Skyfury | can you gimme the complete command please? | 02:27 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: complete command ot remove and then install? | 02:27 |
| Skyfury | OxDeadC0de: yeah i have read that. thats not a problem - router with dhcp | 02:27 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: yes would be nice | 02:27 |
| OxDeadC0de | skyfury I'm a little drunk but I'll try to help you too along with dhuv, so I'll scoll back and see exactly what your problem is, sry if I get a bit annoying :P | 02:28 |
| Skyfury | OxDeadC0de: lol dude every help is welcome! im getting confused on this :( | 02:28 |

| Skyfury | dhuv: okay now my wlan0 is not up after booting !? | 02:37 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: so when you do "ifconfig -a" it does not show up at all? | 02:38 |
| draik | I have just upgraded to Frostwire 4.17.1 and I get an issue when starting Frostwire... http://paste.ubuntu.com/76215/ | 02:38 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: there is also wlan0 | 02:39 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: so it is there | 02:39 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: but if i try iwlist wlan0 scanning - this service is temp... seems that the device isnt up yet | 02:39 |
| dhuv | can you see if you see wlan0 by doing "ifconfig -a" | 02:39 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: yes i can | 02:40 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: good, so it is still detected, do you see it in the network manager? | 02:40 |
| Skyfury | dhuv: under NM -> new connection -> only the0 in there | 02:41 |
| Skyfury | *eth0 | 02:41 |
| dhuv | Skyfury: real quick, can you do a "cat /etc/network/interfaces" and see if you see wlan0 there? | 02:43 |
| Skyfury | i edited this file earlier - i was only with lo at the beginning - i added my wlan0 in there and commented every line out with a # | 02:44 |
| dhuv | no, do not have wlan0 in there http://osdir.com/ml/linux.network.networkmanager.devel/2006-06/msg00142.html | 02:45 |

| RobertLaptop | Leandro check the bugtracker. Something like that might already be there. If the only change you have made is your kernel and smp stoped working it is possible that something was broken with that release. | 03:26 |

| TekkieFreak | Did you try the gnome desktop? Does that work better? | 03:28 |
| yousef_ | no i didnt try | 03:29 |
| RobertLaptop | leadro if smp is complied in the kernel it generally just works. There are a few kernel options that will tweak smp but there is generally more about making smp more responsive not turning it on. | 03:29 |
| TekkieFreak | yousef....you should download the 8.10 Ubuntu liveCD and see how that works. | 03:30 |
| leandro | yeah, I've compiled some kernels whit smp and rt. I think the package maintainer forgot to compile whit smp support | 03:30 |

| CourtJesterG | so i went sudo nano pointed to a file.exe came up with a bunch of stuff and i can't understand what most of it is does linux now how to read a .exe file in the kconsole | 04:13 |
| bazhang | CourtJesterG, what are you trying to do | 04:14 |
| CourtJesterG | i just wanted to view the file information of the .exe and see if i can copy it out of there so i can try and repackage it | 04:15 |
| CourtJesterG | i want to try and repackage a .exe into a deb | 04:15 |
| bazhang | CourtJesterG, repackage as what | 04:15 |
| CourtJesterG | as a .deb or any other format i can use to bring it to a .deb | 04:15 |
| bazhang | CourtJesterG, what file | 04:16 |
| CourtJesterG | ProjectVistor992193-123FULL.exe | 04:16 |
| bazhang | CourtJesterG, what does that do; what is it | 04:16 |
| CourtJesterG | its my game paid 7 months can't play do to the internet browser is required to start it when you hit agree using in windows it will lanch but even if using wine the browser kicks back a pv.pvl file | 04:17 |
| bazhang | you cant package exe as deb | 04:18 |
| CourtJesterG | of which usually the browser is suppose to run it through to enter the game | 04:18 |
| CourtJesterG | if i had the source code i could | 04:18 |
| CourtJesterG | or if i decompiled the dam thing | 04:18 |
| mister-tea | try ie6 for linux | 04:18 |
| bazhang | its not open source | 04:18 |
| bazhang | so you have no right to do that. | 04:18 |
| CourtJesterG | i mean most game run on linux machines so why are they not making linux packages instead mostly .exe makes no since | 04:19 |
| pierre__ | because it's a question of how much it costs for how much it can bring back | 04:20 |
| CourtJesterG | anyay the game is runnign a free trial you want to give it a try projectvistor its called look it up interesting game used to be 10six | 04:21 |

| CourtJesterG | i need a fix to my font bug problem the wine application to config it doesn't display any fonts i already fix my 96 driver font bug problem with the tweek just need to fix the wine problem now | 10:52 |
| CourtJesterG | no fonts to read when i open the win config | 10:52 |
| martijn | flash videos stopped working in konqueror for me | 10:53 |
| martijn | flash apps seem to work | 10:53 |
| CourtJesterG | i can't find the fix for it or where wine.cfg is located i know how to do it | 10:53 |
| CourtJesterG | i believe | 10:53 |
| CourtJesterG | been searching forums and sites for hours | 10:53 |
| SlimG | martijn: Get used to it uintil Konqueror changes rendering-engine, or khtml suddently decides to cooperate | 10:54 |
| SlimG | CourtJesterG: What about just deleting the ~/.win folder, and let it regenerate itself? | 10:54 |
| SlimG | ~/.wine * | 10:55 |
| CourtJesterG | i can try in terminal | 10:55 |
| CourtJesterG | or kcosole | 10:55 |
| martijn | SlimG ... bleh are you serious? | 10:55 |
| CourtJesterG | using kubuntu noticed most documents and the file system is different in ubuntu and how there site tells you to do some stuff related to wine | 10:55 |
| CourtJesterG | that doesn't work | 10:56 |
| CourtJesterG | unless i go maybe rm | 10:56 |
| SlimG | martijn: That's my experience, using Kubuntu without having Firefox installed for everything Konqueror won't do is a real pain | 10:56 |
| martijn | pitty, it used to work pretty well in kde3 | 10:57 |
| SlimG | CourtJesterG: rm -R ~/.wine && wineprefixcreate ~/.wine | 10:57 |
| SlimG | CourtJesterG: forgot --prefix: wineprefixcreate --prefix ~/.wine | 10:58 |
| fjellrev1 | Daisuke_Ido: | 10:59 |

| CourtJesterG | updated | 11:00 |
| CourtJesterG | no did,t happen | 11:01 |
| CourtJesterG | i found the fix for once before | 11:01 |
| CourtJesterG | when i open up wine to config i have no fonts if i go tot wine hq nobody never answers you there | 11:02 |
| CourtJesterG | thats because i am using the 96 nvidia driver i fixed the fonts on my system already with the anti-alais dpi | 11:03 |
| juanantonio | Hello, my Kubuntu 8.04 is not letting me mount Windows and USB disk | 11:08 |

| ubottu | ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 11:10 |

| SlimG | juanantonio: If you've used the NTFS-partition in Windows, and did a unclean shutdown. you'll be having problems mounting it again in linux | 11:19 |

| andrew__ | I've got a big problem with 8.10 ever since upgrading. KDE4 seems to crash xorg every time. I've got a stack trace, but it doesn't have many symbols. Can anyone help? | 11:24 |
| andrew__ | 8.04 with KDE4 backports was fine for me btw. It must be related to the new version of xorg in 8.10 | 11:24 |
| Tm_T | andrew__: what display driver? | 11:25 |
| andrew__ | nvidia's binary 177 - although I also tried the older one that comes with 8.10 and it was the same. On top of that, I had this same problem on another machine which uses ATI/fglrx. However, the ATI machine seems to have fixed itself, possibly with the 4.1.3 backport, whereas my nvidia machine (the one I really rely on) still suffers | 11:27 |
| Tm_T | andrew__: have you tried new beta drivers from nvidia? | 11:27 |
| andrew__ | Tm_T: nope not tried those. Think it would make a difference? | 11:29 |
| Tm_T | andrew__: may, may not | 11:29 |

| bazhang | juanantonio, did you do an unclean windows shutdown? | 11:36 |
| juanantonio | Unclean? | 11:36 |
| bazhang | juanantonio: If you've used the NTFS-partition in Windows, and did a unclean shutdown. you'll be having problems mounting it again in linux | 11:37 |
| juanantonio | Unclean shutdown, I don't undersatand the concept. I used it because Linux could't find some files that were there; then I turned off from the Start Windows menu | 11:38 |
| SlimG | juanantonio: Boot windows again, and see if it automatically checks the filesystem at startup (before you enter the desktop), if it does, that should fix your mounting-issues in linux (it would also indicate that you've done a unclean shutdown in windows) | 11:40 |
| juanantonio | Ok, I'm going to see. If Windows is not checking that, what will happen? | 11:41 |
| andrew__ | when I log in as me (with all my settings), it crashes xorg on the KDE splash screen. When I log in with a user with no settings, I can get into KDE, but it will crash shortly after. In fact, I can usuall make it crash by going to the desktop, right clicking, choosing desktop settings and clicking on the drop down menu which lets you set a wallpaper to be tiled/scaled/stretched etc | 11:41 |

| fjellrev1 | is there any negative effects of running a 32 bit system instead of 64 ( i say this cause Im contemplating going to 32,because of scripts for my wifi driver only wanting to run under 32) | 12:32 |
| dr_willis | I have to wonder what a 'script' is doing thats 32/64bit different. | 12:33 |
| fjellrev1 | beats me :) I can't say I have too much knowledge on this,just that only real solution I have found is this script,and when running it I get an error,saying sorry,only works on 32 bit system for now | 12:36 |
| fjellrev1 | now my roommate suggest just switching to 32 system instead, he says there isnt much reason for running it,paranoid as I am I cant take his wod for it :) | 12:36 |
| dr_willis | I normally use 32bit.. buit am testing out 64bit now.. its working well for me. | 12:37 |
| dr_willis | I can only think of 1 or 2 litle issues ive had with 64bit | 12:39 |
| fjellrev1 | yeah,it works for me too,only thing is the wifi ( kind of ruins the whole laptop feeling when having to drag along a TP) so if there isnt much to it than I think I will go for 32..dr_willis the decision will fall on what you have to say :) | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 12:39 |
| dr_willis | 'this is linux, use what you want' :P | 12:40 |
| fjellrev1 | choices,too many choices,not enough knowledge :) | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | then gain knowledge first | 12:41 |
| fjellrev1 | ActionParsnip: kind of the reason I am reaching out in this channel,not here to make chatting friends ;) | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip | fjellrev1: what do you wanna know? | 12:42 |
| fjellrev1 | If there is any downside to using a 32 bit system instead of the 64 bit that I am running now,as I am running into major issues surrounding my wifi card | 12:43 |
| dr_willis | I wouldent think of any issues.. other then accessing large amounts of ram | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | fjellrev1: none really, servers benefit from 64bit as long as the hardware is 64bit nice | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | fjellrev1: desktops on 32bit get better support from plugins | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | fjellrev1: as dr_willis says, if you have > 3Gb ram then use 64bit | 12:44 |
| dwidmann | fjellrev1: umm, lack of support for >~3GB memory ... number crunching, rendering, encoding applications won't get the nice boost ... that's about it | 12:45 |
| fjellrev1 | ActionParsnip: So, for mye usage that is purely recreational and writing assignments in school, I should use 32..have only about 2g ram anyways | 12:45 |
| dr_willis | ive not really noticed much of a boost.. but ive not done head2tohead comapressons | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip | fjellrev1: yes, i'd advise 32 | 12:46 |
| dwidmann | dr_willis: others have though ... and the numbers spoke for themselves. | 12:46 |
| ActionParsnip | dr_willis: it wouldnt be a fair test as many of the other components would be different | 12:46 |
| dr_willis | dwidmann, last benchmarks i saw dident show much.. but that was a year+ ago.. and i imagine the compilers/codeers are better at using the fetures of 64bit by now.. | 12:47 |
| dwidmann | ActionParsnip: no, do it on the same system, seeing as the system can run both | 12:47 |
| dr_willis | 1+ Yr old benchmarks. :) are not good benchmarks | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | dwidmann: makes sense | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | dwidmann: i brain farted and thouht the test would be on a 32bit cpu too | 12:48 |
| dwidmann | dr_willis: I rememer lame in particular not really seeing any improvement | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | dwidmann: I'd expect it to | 12:49 |
| dwidmann | ActionParsnip: so would anybody else | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | dwidmann: oh well | 12:50 |
| ActionParsnip | stranger things have happened at sea | 12:50 |
| dwidmann | on the other hand, I remember blender being like >30% faster | 12:51 |
| dr_willis | blender... :) i never did get a good grasp of using that program | 12:52 |
| voox | anyone know how to get the forward/backward buttons on a mouse to work with opera ? (works fine in firefox) | 12:55 |
| dwidmann | voox: go to tools->preferences->advanced->shortcuts, go to the mouse setup | 12:56 |
| dwidmann | voox: in the tree, expand application, it probably has something like "button 6" for back and "button 7" for forward ... might not be correct for your mouse ... you can see what the actual buttons are by using the program xev (start it in konsole) | 12:58 |
| voox | dwidmann, thanks let me give it a shot | 13:00 |
| dwidmann | voox: better yet, to simplify the output greatly, run xev this way --- "xev | grep button" | 13:01 |
| voox | dwidmann, button 8 and 9 | 13:02 |
| dwidmann | voox: change that in opera and you should be good to go then. | 13:02 |
| voox | dwidmann, should I put a space between "button 8" | 13:03 |
| dwidmann | voox: yeah | 13:03 |
| voox | dwidmann, alright thanks a lot :) | 13:03 |

| dwidmann | linux_user400354: you should have it, and it should be "/usr/bin/kcmshell" | 13:59 |
| dwidmann | linux_user400354: and I'm assuming your typo didn't help | 13:59 |

| noaXess | now i have only changed nvidia to nv | 14:19 |
| noaXess | .. first drink a coffee and then restart X :) | 14:19 |
| dwidmann | noaXess: I'm not too sure about the last two lines in device, I think those might be nvidia specific | 14:20 |
| noaXess | dwidmann: i will test.. after my coffee :) expresso ;) | 14:20 |
| dwidmann | noaXess: same with lines 92-97 of the paste (in the screen section) | 14:20 |
| dwidmann | noaXess: pretty sure those are nvidia specific | 14:21 |
| dwidmann | noaXess: and I don't think nv supports twinview either | 14:21 |
| noaXess | jep thats correct.. will uncomment them. | 14:21 |
| noaXess | dwidmann: how can i make a clean xorg.conf? after backuped mine :) | 14:21 |
| dwidmann | noaXess: erm, umm, I'm not really sure anymore | 14:22 |
| dwidmann | noaXess: used to be something, but that something doesn't do it anymore so it's not worth my typing it out if ya know what I mean | 14:22 |

| _spm_Draget | How can I remove networkmanager from by runlevel? | 14:22 |
| linux_user400354 | why did the ubuntu developers get rid of kcontrol in ubuntu 8.10? | 14:22 |
| dwidmann | linux_user400354: I think it was in kdebase, which is among the many things dropped ... they pretty much dropped all but kdelibs and a few misc packages (krename, konversation, digikam, amarok, and koffice, to name a few) | 14:24 |
| _spm_Draget | What is the name of the package with networkmanager? | 14:25 |
| BluesKaj | dwidmann, one would think that there shoulf be an "Input Device Section" for keyboards and exotic mouses/mice in Intrepids xorg.conf file , but they seem to just be using a HAL dependency | 14:25 |
| linux_user400354 | _spm_Draget, apt-file find networkmanager | 14:26 |
| _spm_Draget | nop, it was network-manager | 14:26 |
| linux_user400354 | _spm_Draget, try this. dpkg -S `which NetworkManager` | 14:26 |
| === geek is now known as Guest86376 | ||
| dwidmann | BluesKaj: yeah ... I had to add for my mouse as well ... and it's not even *that* exotic | 14:26 |
| === Guest86376 is now known as faileas | ||
| dwidmann | linux_user400354: I personally would have opted for apt-cache search network | grep -i manager | 14:28 |
| linux_user400354 | is there a way i can compile kcontrol to get it in ubuntu 8.10? | 14:30 |
| dwidmann | linux_user400354: well, yeah. | 14:30 |
| dwidmann | linux_user400354: you can pretty much compile whatever you want, if you really want to. | 14:31 |
| dwidmann | linux_user400354: I have a full kde3 compiled and installed to ~/linux/soft, as of about a week ago | 14:32 |
| BluesKaj | dwidmann, I had to edit to add a "Module Section" to enable 3D and DRI and edit the Extensions Section to Composite = "0" as well as adding fglrx as a driver for the "Configured Video Device'. The Intrepid developers decided to let users set things up for their own hardware when they wrote the xorg.conf .However that leaves those who are new to Linux out in the cold somewhat. That's my rant for Today :>) | 14:33 |
| dwidmann | BluesKaj: I agree ... xorg.conf setup definitely needs some work/love | 14:34 |
| neverendingo | Hey, i have a problem with kopete after an update from 8.04 to 8.10. I used kde4 before, but after the update i can't access my accounts anymore, they are gone. And configuring kopete isn't possible, too. The menu only has "configure -> configure shortcuts". Removing the original configs doesn't work either. Any hints? | 14:38 |
| dwidmann | neverendingo: kubuntu 8.10's config dir is ~/.kde, 8.04's was ~/.kde4. Thats' why they can't be accessed .... copy what you need over | 14:39 |
| neverendingo | dwidmann: i already did that, doesn't work | 14:39 |

| samushka | is there any PPA's with kde 4.2 packages besides project neon? (i want to REPLACE kde 4.1 iwith 4.2) | 14:45 |
| dwidmann | samushka: no, seeing as last I checked there wasn't even a beta of kde4.2 | 14:45 |
| samushka | sarcasm aside, i meant the beta packages | 14:46 |
| samushka | or svn builds | 14:46 |
| dwidmann | svn builds != beta packages | 14:46 |
| samushka | right, i meant svn my bad... arch linux has a repository just wanted to know if there's any unofficial ones for kubuntu | 14:47 |
| dwidmann | Nothing I've heard about ... though there should be a beta of 4.2 soon. I would expect to see packages then. | 14:48 |
| samushka | ok | 14:48 |

| LDSHDW | I'm using kopete as a "msn messenger " client and I want to change the sending settings. I'm not talking about the regular settings, I mean the new windows that spawns up every time that you do send a file. If I do send like 5 files for my friend in kopete it will open 5 different new windows for it. In windows msn messenger it did put the sending information in the screen / windows that you are using when you talk with your friend | 18:09 |
| LDSHDW | and it shows up in the text ( if you get what I mean). And in skype it does open a new windows where _all_ the files that you send are arranged. But in Kopete it opens new windows for every file. I wan't to change it. It doesn't matter if it's like msn messenger where you can see the sending information in the normal tekst or like in skype where it does open new windows for all the files. I just hate the way that kopete does send | 18:09 |
| LDSHDW | files. | 18:09 |
| aaron | LDSHDW, are you sending the files from the main Kopete window? | 18:16 |
| LDSHDW | umm I drag the files I want to send to the windows | 18:16 |
| LDSHDW | I don't usually use the real send button and search the files by that way. I'm used to drag the files | 18:17 |
| aaron | ah, so for each file you drag-and-drop it opens a progress window | 18:17 |
| LDSHDW | yeah it does that | 18:17 |
| aaron | I don't see any preferences to turn that off, and that's a pretty standard KDE action for any kind of file transfer. | 18:18 |
| LDSHDW | it is? oh, I hate it. | 18:18 |

| heinkel_111 | good evening :) is it recommended to make your own directory names for mountpoints in the /media/ directory? Or is /media/ only for the systems automounts? | 20:03 |
| YAOMTC | Properties, Permissions... I see. Thanks! | 20:03 |
| kurosaki_ichigo | you will get a properties screen and in the middle you can set premissions, but i gues you have to do this as root | 20:03 |
| YAOMTC | It'd be nice if I could set permissions for individual groups, rather than just groups in general. Oh well, good enough I suppose | 20:03 |
| heinkel_111 | I don't want my music files mounted on /media/sda1 I want it to be /media/music or something like that' | 20:04 |
| kurosaki_ichigo | I believe thats possible you can add users to users groups | 20:04 |
| heinkel_111 | comments/recommendations? | 20:04 |
| YAOMTC | Mkay, I'm gonna try this, I'll be back | 20:05 |
| kurosaki_ichigo | heinkel_111 its a good idea to make mount pounts for your internal drives, but theres no need to do this for external drives | 20:05 |
| heinkel_111 | kurosaki_ichigo: this is for several partitions of a new internal drive, yes | 20:05 |
| kurosaki_ichigo | My advice would be set them with your install already, because after install it can get harder to set them right ( my experience ) | 20:06 |
| heinkel_111 | kurosaki_ichigo: in the /media folder the OS automagically creates some mountpoints that I am no big fan of, like /media/sda1 --- it tells me nothing | 20:06 |
| noaXess | is there a widget for bluetooth devices? | 20:07 |
| kurosaki_ichigo | heinkel_111 sda1 is your first drive | 20:07 |
| heinkel_111 | kurosaki_ichigo: Yes I much better liked the Dapper way where everything was mounted manually or using /etc/fstab. The newschool automagics are much harder to understand | 20:08 |
| === maxbaldwin is now known as Q-Bot | ||
| heinkel_111 | kurosaki_ichigo: no, ironically it is the new one I purchased and still blank :) | 20:08 |

| allen | look for help on getting KDE 3.5 up and running on Ubuntu 8.10. | 22:30 |
| chase | im writing a shell script and it will pull up the terminal but it will not show any of my echo statements | 22:30 |
| allen | or is that to off subject? | 22:30 |
| woodefec | ok,found it.The adept installer had problems. The manager did find it | 22:31 |
| woodefec | allen, i've read about it on kubuntu forums - there is an unofficial repo for KDE 3.5.x | 22:32 |
| allen | I tried the only repo I could find and it closed down as requested by Kbuntu dev team. | 22:33 |
| woodefec | allen,so try another distro that supports it or kubuntu 8.04 | 22:34 |
| woodefec | i go for KDE 4 | 22:35 |
| woodefec | some software (like konversation) is still 3.5.x on kubuntu 8.10 | 22:35 |
| woodefec | got to sleep, good luck. ilike the 8.10 | 22:36 |
| allen | I would like and stay with Ubuntu if I can. I never should have upgraded from 8.04.:( | 22:36 |
| dr_willis | Theres work being done on repos for kde 3.5 i hear. | 22:37 |

| erland | I'm trying to install KDE 4 on Ubuntu 8.10 - looks like the way you're supposed to do that is through the kubuntu-desktop meta package, but when I try that, it conflicts with the displayconfig-gtk and guidance-backends packages - I don't want to lose my nice automatic monitor set-up & detection under Gnome... | 23:08 |

| juanantonio | Hello | 23:32 |
| juanantonio | Is it impossible to install an Nvidia driver? | 23:32 |
| juanantonio | I am trying through the afternoon and I couldn't get it | 23:32 |
| dr_willis | Ive installed them fine on my 3 nvidia based machines | 23:35 |
| juanantonio | Can you tell me how? | 23:36 |
| dr_willis | I did have to install/run the nvidia-settings tool and/or nvidia-xconfig to get the xorg.conf correct for one machine | 23:36 |
| dr_willis | I just clieked on the hardware-driver tool and told it to install them | 23:36 |
| The_ManU_212 | dr_willis: i use mostly adept this kde tool but sometimes i also use apt-get is it ok or shpuldnt i? i only heard you should avoid using aptitude AND apt-get | 23:36 |
| dr_willis | I did nothing special. other then tweak the se4ttings with those 2 tools above | 23:36 |
| dr_willis | I never use aptitude. | 23:36 |
| dr_willis | adept is NOt aptitude | 23:36 |
| juanantonio | No idea, willis. I had installed driver from Nvidia page, but as soon as I restarted, X server blocked it and couldn't start KDM | 23:38 |
| juanantonio | Have you got idea about what may happen? | 23:41 |
| dr_willis | juanantonio, Did you even TRY the drivers from the restricted-drivers tool? | 23:42 |
| dr_willis | Using them from the nvidia page - would be the last option to try | 23:42 |
| juanantonio | Yes, you mean the K menu? | 23:43 |
| The_ManU_212 | dr_willis: i know that aptitude is not adept but i wanted to know if adept is based on apt-get so that it doesnt matter which of them i use (apt-get or adept) | 23:43 |
| dr_willis | I mean the 'hardware-driver-manager' tool thats in the menus somewhere.. and normally has an icon in the panel when you rifst boot up. | 23:43 |
| dr_willis | the command line command for it is 'sudo jockey-kde' (i think) | 23:44 |
| dr_willis | try that first... | 23:44 |
| juanantonio | Oh yes, but I cannot install anything from here, can't I? | 23:45 |
| dr_willis | 'anything from here' ? | 23:45 |
| dr_willis | that hardware manager tool can install the proper restricted-drivers for the nvidia cards. | 23:46 |
| juanantonio | But what must I do to install them? Must I click something? | 23:46 |
| dr_willis | Mine had check box's to enable the drivers.. it then download/installed them. | 23:47 |
| juanantonio | Uhu, I click that box and opened a windows saying Adept Batch, is that good? | 23:49 |
| dr_willis | I dont have gthe kde stuff menmmrized | 23:49 |
| cuznt | juan... you downloaded kde and now your nvidia card does not work? | 23:49 |
| cuznt | or installed rather | 23:50 |
| cuznt | ? | 23:50 |
| cuznt | i had that problem | 23:50 |
| cuznt | after a clean install it fixed itself | 23:51 |
| The_ManU_212 | dr_willis: can you help me with my question? | 23:51 |
| cuznt | dr_willis: i know that aptitude is not adept but i wanted to know if adept is based on apt-get so that it doesnt matter which of them i use (apt-get or adept) | 23:51 |
| cuznt | that one? | 23:51 |
| juanantonio | No, KDE in the beginning worked properly...with VESA driver. I tried to install a NVIDIA drivers, first from the web, then by Add-Remove, and the only thing I get, is to have it working until I restart KDE, because in this moment, or I choose driver VESA, either I cannot login | 23:51 |
| juanantonio | this is the complete problem | 23:51 |
| cuznt | !nvidia | 23:52 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 23:52 |
| cuznt | did you go there? | 23:52 |
| cuznt | The_ManU_212 it does not matter which you use | 23:52 |
| cuznt | i use synaptic package manager to install most programs | 23:53 |
| juanantonio | No idea, man, it is days and days, and besides, GL is not working | 23:53 |
| cuznt | man | 23:53 |
| cuznt | have you restarted | 23:53 |
| cuznt | hit esc | 23:53 |
| cuznt | and choose recover mode? | 23:53 |
| juanantonio | You know, I am very very happy with Kubuntu, but I am driving crazy with the video driver | 23:53 |
| cuznt | i know | 23:54 |
| juanantonio | Yes, and it made me choose VESA driver | 23:54 |
| cuznt | it made me nuts too | 23:54 |
| cuznt | hmmmm | 23:54 |
| cuznt | what is a vesa driver? | 23:54 |
| cuznt | !VESA | 23:54 |
| ubottu | vesa is the default video driver if X can't find a better one. Also see !x | 23:54 |
| cuznt | see i do not use the nvidia driver | 23:55 |
| aanderse | anyone know any kde4/qt4 web cam apps? | 23:55 |
| juanantonio | Which one are you using then? | 23:55 |
| dr_willis | Did you install the drivers from the nvidia site? or did you just not get that done all the way juanantonio ? | 23:55 |
| cuznt | the defalt | 23:55 |
| cuznt | you got to slowly try it again | 23:56 |
| dr_willis | The Order I try to get nvidia going on 'problem' systems.. -> the jockey-kde tool, the envyng tool, then if all else fails.. the installer from the nvida sen site. | 23:56 |
| The_ManU_212 | cuznt: and what about the different lists about installed packages? ubuntu wikis are warning | 23:56 |
| cuznt | one small / instead of | might get you in the end | 23:56 |
| cuznt | sych as? | 23:56 |
| cuznt | such as? | 23:57 |
