| ActionParsnip | innovate2000: not winbind | 00:28 |
| innovate2000 | ActionParsnip: saw you in #ubuntu - do you have suggestions as to which channel I should use to get help? I've been struggling with this for several days | 00:29 |
| ActionParsnip | !info winbind | 00:30 |

| ActionParsnip | innovate2000: no idea man, try channels that deal with linux / windows crossovers like #samba | 00:31 |
| innovate2000 | thanks all - I am familiar with winbind - have successfully replaced 8 windows servers with (k)ubuntu 8.04 servers - but now am trying with (k)ubuntu 8.10 and am getting failures when I try "net ads join" (which went without a hitch in 8.04 - but fails for 8.10) | 00:32 |

| ubottu | To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 01:09 |

| livingdaylight | kubuntu people! | 01:31 |
| livingdaylight | is there a wubi installer for kubuntu? | 01:31 |
| Dragnslcr | I think you have to have a Kubuntu CD | 01:32 |
| Dragnslcr | Or maybe just the image | 01:32 |
| Dragnslcr | I can't remember exactly how I did it | 01:32 |
| livingdaylight | i want a .exe installer | 01:33 |
| kubuntuuser | livingdaylight: sry¿? | 01:35 |
| livingdaylight | kubuntuuser: sry? | 01:36 |
| Dragnslcr | I'm pretty sure Wubi asks you for an .iso image or a CD | 01:36 |
| kubuntuuser | :S try softonic -> wubi | 01:36 |
| livingdaylight | softonic? | 01:38 |
| livingdaylight | seems the only way is to install ubuntu with wubi installer and then install the kubuntu desktop | 01:38 |

| draik | I'm using ARK to unrar a file. There is an avi within the various rar files (.rar .r00 .r01 ... .r37). I open .rar and extract. Nothing is extracted. What am I doing wrong? | 02:38 |
| snyderios | splitted .rar files can't unpacked with Ark | 02:41 |
| tuanpham | draik: did you check to the all file check box ? | 02:41 |
| epimeth | draik: you can combine the rar parts into one | 02:41 |
| snyderios | you can use 'unrar' or 'unrar-free' | 02:41 |
| draik | tuanpham: It's only one file | 02:41 |
| draik | epimeth: How so? | 02:42 |
| epimeth | draik: try cat file.rar file.r00 file.r01 file.r02 .... file.r37 > new_file_name.rar | 02:42 |
| draik | snyderios: Ok. I could have sworn I've done it in the past, but who knows. Thanks for the tip. | 02:42 |
| epimeth | and then open new_file_name.rar in ark | 02:42 |
| epimeth | it should work then | 02:42 |
| Out_Cold | anyone know how to turn off the mouse touch pad taps? | 02:50 |
| epimeth | Out_Cold: If you find out, let me know :-) | 02:51 |
| Out_Cold | crap | 02:51 |
| Out_Cold | i can find it no problem in gnome.... | 02:51 |
| epimeth | oh? | 02:51 |
| Out_Cold | yea.. it's fairly straight forward... but i've been trying to familiarize myself in the KDE | 02:52 |
| epimeth | http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-910254.html | 02:52 |
| epimeth | try that? | 02:52 |
| draik | epimeth: I tried and it did not work. The file is not being extracted. | 02:53 |
| epimeth | file? | 02:53 |
| draik | Yes. The avi file I'm trying to extract | 02:54 |
| epimeth | oh | 02:54 |
| epimeth | lol | 02:54 |
| epimeth | sorry | 02:54 |
| epimeth | I thought you were the other guy | 02:54 |
| Out_Cold | yea.. got me too | 02:54 |
| draik | Thought so, too. | 02:54 |
| epimeth | draik: have you tried unrar? | 02:54 |
| draik | How do I use unrar? | 02:54 |
| epimeth | install the unrar program | 02:55 |
| tuanpham | apt get | 02:55 |
| epimeth | and to use it, follow the instructions in "man unrar" | 02:55 |
| draik | I'm sorry, I should ask, What's the syntax? | 02:55 |
| tuanpham | did you try 7zip ? | 02:55 |
| draik | Ok | 02:55 |
| epimeth | sudo apt-get install unrar | 02:55 |
| draik | I have in installed. | 02:55 |
| epimeth | now "man unrar" | 02:56 |
| epimeth | and follow the instructions :-) | 02:56 |
| epimeth | is there not going to be a katapult for kde4? | 02:58 |
| epimeth | or do I just have to wait | 02:58 |
| epimeth | I love katapult :-( | 02:58 |
| draik | I was missing the "e" WHOOPSIE! | 02:58 |
| epimeth | ??? | 02:59 |
| Out_Cold | what is katapult? | 03:00 |
| kevin__ | anyone know a good IM that I can send txt msg's with? | 03:01 |
| epimeth | katapult is only the best piece of software ever | 03:01 |
| Out_Cold | that explains it all epimeth | 03:01 |
| epimeth | in kde3, you hit "alt+space" and start typing in the program you want | 03:01 |
| epimeth | it autocompletes and shows the icon | 03:01 |
| Out_Cold | ok.. that sounds cool | 03:02 |
| epimeth | pretty much the same as "alt+f2" in kde4 | 03:02 |
| epimeth | buuuuuuuuut. I like the way katapult looks much more | 03:02 |
| Dragnslcr | I think katapult got retired by the regular run dialog | 03:02 |
| epimeth | and I prefer alt+space over alt+f2 | 03:02 |
| epimeth | :-) | 03:02 |
| Dragnslcr | Heh, you can probably change the keyboard shortcut | 03:02 |
| Out_Cold | that would just be to easy though lol | 03:03 |
| Out_Cold | and it wouldn't be as cool | 03:03 |
| epimeth | exactly | 03:03 |
| epimeth | :-) | 03:03 |
| epimeth | Dragnslcr: how would you say I can change the shortcut? | 03:04 |
| epimeth | and this screen flickering business is driving me nuts! | 03:04 |
| tuanpham | how about spellchecker ? | 03:06 |
| epimeth | why is xorg.conf empty? | 03:06 |
| epimeth | tuanpham: dunno dude | 03:06 |
| epimeth | where the heck is everyone???? | 03:08 |
| Dragnslcr | epimeth- System Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts | 03:09 |
| Out_Cold | epimeth, prolly the wrong xorg.conf file lol | 03:10 |
| epimeth | Out_Cold: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:11 |
| epimeth | everywhere it says that thats it | 03:11 |
| epimeth | but mine is empty... | 03:11 |
| epimeth | Dragnslcr: I don't see it there.... | 03:11 |
| Dragnslcr | It's in the Run Command component | 03:12 |
| Out_Cold | that's no good.... you sure you have permissions to view it? | 03:12 |
| epimeth | kdesudo kate :-) | 03:13 |
| Out_Cold | weird.. mine is there... maybe you erased it... in which case... uh oh | 03:14 |
| epimeth | I didn't do anything! | 03:14 |
| epimeth | I'll reconfigure... that should bring it back | 03:14 |

| epimeth | soontak: command not found | 03:36 |
| epimeth | newbie_ubuntu: hard drives dont have names | 03:36 |
| epimeth | newbie_ubuntu: could you be more specific? | 03:36 |
| epimeth | newbie_ubuntu: you want to change its mount point? (where it is located in the filesystem) | 03:37 |
| newbie_ubuntu | for example: i mount /dev/sdb4 to /media/games, but when I open dolphin, I see its name is DATA | 03:37 |
| newbie_ubuntu | so I want to change DATA to Games, is it possible? | 03:38 |
| epimeth | you see /media/DATA ? | 03:38 |
| newbie_ubuntu | yes(DATA in dolphin) | 03:39 |
| epimeth | newbie_ubuntu: open a konsole and type "cd /media" | 03:40 |
| epimeth | and then "ls" | 03:40 |
| epimeth | what do you see? | 03:40 |
| newbie_ubuntu | cdrom cdrom0 floppy floppy0 Games Multimedia win | 03:41 |
| epimeth | now "cd Games" | 03:41 |
| epimeth | and ls | 03:41 |
| epimeth | is that your drive? | 03:41 |
| epimeth | also, is this a windows mount? | 03:42 |
| newbie_ubuntu | but why in dolphin: games=> DATA | 03:42 |
| epimeth | newbie_ubuntu: exactly what I'm wondering. are you sure you're seeing DATA in /media??? | 03:42 |
| epimeth | because that doesn't seem right | 03:42 |
| newbie_ubuntu | yes, | 03:42 |
| newbie_ubuntu | but just in dolphin | 03:43 |
| newbie_ubuntu | in windows, its label is Games | 03:43 |

| zennon_guerra | ? | 03:48 |
| soontak | epimeth: yeah, which kubuntu version are you using? have u try to reboot into recovery mode and select on 'Fix X server' ? | 03:48 |
| zennon_guerra | 8,1,0 | 03:48 |
| zennon_guerra | and kde 4,1 | 03:49 |
| epimeth | soontak: ibex. recovery mode isn't just a root shell? | 03:49 |
| zennon_guerra | so, i do everything but nothing happen | 03:49 |
| soontak | epimeth: in kubuntu 8.04, there are options for u to choose | 03:50 |
| soontak | epimeth: fix X or root shell.... and .... cant remember all | 03:51 |
| birnisson | hi, are there kde 4.2 beta packages for intrepid? | 03:51 |
| soontak | epimeth: if u r using 7.10, maybe u can try this command on root: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 03:53 |
| epimeth | soontak: I tried that... it did literally nothing :-) | 03:54 |
| epimeth | soontak: but again, I'm using 8.10 | 03:54 |
| soontak | epimeth: no idea then... | 03:57 |

| jabrroa | its not really worth it lol two years later its crap anyways | 04:09 |
| epimeth | I have a crappy old lappy that barely runs XP, but kubuntu is just fine.... | 04:09 |
| jabrroa | yea kubuntu is just to much like windows for me lol | 04:10 |
| jabrroa | i switched to debian | 04:10 |
| epimeth | debian was nice, but I find kubuntu easier to deal with | 04:10 |
| epimeth | better community, easier initial settings | 04:11 |
| jmichaelx | jabrroa: that is strange, because i use both debian and k/ubuntu, and for the life of me, you must be seeing a greater difference betweenthem than i am... | 04:11 |
| jabrroa | yea well lol | 04:11 |

| jmichaelx | the main thing in debian testing's favor for me right now, is having an up-to-date system that is still running KDE3 | 04:13 |
| * jmichaelx hugs KDE3 | 04:13 | |
| epimeth | Out_Cold: good :-) | 04:13 |
| bdizzle | KDE3 is nice | 04:13 |
| * epimeth misses kde3 | 04:13 | |
| Out_Cold | now i just gotta start liking KDE before i throw it out | 04:13 |
| DaSkreech | bdizzle: what are you trying to do? | 04:14 |
| DaSkreech | epimeth: install it | 04:14 |
| epimeth | but I've been phasing myself into kde4 since they announced that ibex was going to be just 4, so i'm pretty used to it | 04:14 |
| jabrroa | i use backtrack3 and open suse occasionally | 04:14 |
| bdizzle | back up the hard drive so that in caes I need to go back to 8.04, I can copy back the user files and such | 04:14 |
| epimeth | DaSkreech: does it come with all the new stuff? Network manager and the like? | 04:14 |
| jmichaelx | epimeth: i like KDE4, and it is definitely _going_ to be nice, but right now it just isn't mature enough to be considered a stable desktop | 04:15 |
| DaSkreech | bdizzle: Ah You need a /home partition | 04:15 |
| bdizzle | right now its saying about 30 minutes remaining | 04:15 |
| jabrroa | no definatly not lol | 04:15 |
| bdizzle | on my desktop, yeah, I do | 04:15 |
| jabrroa | lol | 04:15 |
| bdizzle | how large should I consider making it? | 04:15 |
| jabrroa | funny | 04:15 |
| epimeth | DaSkreech: btw, you wouldn't happen to know how to check which graphics driver I'm using? my xorg.conf is empty | 04:15 |
| DaSkreech | epimeth: No I've given up on Xorg | 04:15 |
| epimeth | DaSkreech: lol... what are you using? :-) | 04:16 |
| DaSkreech | Y :) | 04:16 |
| jmichaelx | epimeth: i have been wondering the same thing... i just can't adjust to these changes! | 04:16 |
| bdizzle | or actually, I guess the better question is on a 100 GB dedicated space, how much should I allocate the root vs home partitions? | 04:16 |
| DaSkreech | root 20 | 04:16 |
| bdizzle | and how do I set up the /home partition vs just install everything | 04:17 |
| epimeth | I've adjusted except for lack of katapult... and I can't figure out how to map alt+space to alt+f2 | 04:17 |
| matiasdj87 | HI! | 04:17 |
| DaSkreech | bdizzle: custom partition on install | 04:17 |
| DaSkreech | epimeth: That should be partly fixed in 4.2 | 04:17 |
| DaSkreech | With quicksand | 04:17 |
| epimeth | ??? | 04:17 |
| DaSkreech | !hi | 04:17 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 04:17 |
| Out_Cold | bdizzle, your root partition can be around 10-15 gb and be more than fine | 04:17 |
| DaSkreech | Seriously | 04:18 |
| DaSkreech | my / is 7 GB and I've never filled it | 04:18 |
| Out_Cold | yea.. i use 8 | 04:18 |
| jabrroa | i have a 50gb | 04:18 |
| bdizzle | okay | 04:18 |
| jabrroa | but i have 5TB of space... | 04:18 |
| bdizzle | so 20 GB on root, the other 80 GB for home | 04:18 |
| bdizzle | lol | 04:18 |
| jabrroa | i will NEVER run out lol | 04:18 |
| DaSkreech | jabrroa: you can install all of main and universe in that and still have space | 04:18 |
| bdizzle | I've got about 280 GB combined or so | 04:18 |
| jabrroa | i know :) and i got the sata's for free :) | 04:19 |
| Out_Cold | you'll never need more than 10 Gb | 04:19 |
| bdizzle | jabrroa: don't say that, Bill Gates will find a way to make the minimum install for windows 2015 to be 1 TB | 04:19 |
| epimeth | ahaha... I've heard *that* before | 04:19 |
| jabrroa | i do ALOT of downloading though | 04:19 |
| DaSkreech | Out_Cold: No You'll never need more than 640k | 04:19 |
| Out_Cold | haha | 04:19 |
| jabrroa | lol | 04:19 |
| jabrroa | i dont use windows :):):):):) | 04:19 |
| Out_Cold | ok well he shouldn't ever need more than 10 | 04:19 |
| bdizzle | heh, lucky you. | 04:20 |
| bdizzle | I still have to dual boot whenever I come across something wine won't run | 04:20 |
| jabrroa | my uncle works for WD | 04:20 |
| jabrroa | use virtual boox | 04:20 |
| epimeth | bdizzle: why not install virtualbox? it works great | 04:20 |
| jabrroa | :) | 04:20 |
| jabrroa | i win | 04:20 |
| jabrroa | i said it first | 04:20 |
| jabrroa | :) | 04:20 |
| epimeth | also, why didn't you download crossover? it was free for a day! | 04:20 |
| epimeth | I *know* I came in here and let everyone know | 04:21 |
| * DaSkreech gives jabrroa a box ... virtually | 04:21 | |
| jabrroa | i did but not on free day | 04:21 |
| DaSkreech | You won!! | 04:21 |
| bdizzle | epimeth: I did | 04:21 |
| jabrroa | :) | 04:21 |
| jabrroa | :0 | 04:21 |
| jabrroa | no | 04:21 |
| jabrroa | :( | 04:21 |
| bdizzle | but only on my laptop, haven't had a chance to install on desktop | 04:21 |
| jabrroa | do it :) | 04:21 |
| bdizzle | I need to figure out how to transfer about 10 GB of research data files to my desktop without a cable | 04:22 |
| epimeth | bdizzle: 3 dvds? | 04:22 |
| jabrroa | teamviewer and 50 years lol | 04:22 |
| bdizzle | lol | 04:22 |
| DaSkreech | pop out the hard drive? | 04:22 |
| bdizzle | I've got a 2 GB jump drive, but I was hoping to do it all in once | 04:22 |
| bdizzle | nea, not going that route | 04:22 |
| DaSkreech | booooring | 04:23 |
| bdizzle | I can't afford to lose either computer thanks | 04:23 |
| jabrroa | pull out the HDD | 04:27 |
| jabrroa | plug it into the other one | 04:27 |
| jabrroa | dump files | 04:27 |
| jabrroa | plug it back in to other one | 04:27 |
| bdizzle | one is a desktop, the other a laptop, doesn't work that way that I am aware of | 04:29 |
| epimeth | buy a case for the laptop hd.... 10 bucks on ebay | 04:31 |
| epimeth | thats what i did.... | 04:31 |
| Daisuke_Ido | probably not. you can set up nfs shares | 04:31 |
| Daisuke_Ido | just copy over the local network | 04:32 |
| epimeth | Daisuke_Ido: "no cables" | 04:32 |
| jabrroa | lol | 04:33 |
| Daisuke_Ido | carrier pigeon | 04:33 |
| Daisuke_Ido | or do it over the local wireless network :D | 04:33 |
| jabrroa | haha carrier pigeon..... :P | 04:36 |
| jabrroa | teamviewer and a whole 4 years to wait :) | 04:36 |
| frozty_sa | morning all. is there any known bug of firefox becoming incredibly shitty after an update or something since roundabout last friday? | 04:39 |
| jabrroa | how would one obtain compiz fusion for KDE4? | 04:41 |
| epimeth | jabrroa: its integrated | 04:42 |
| bdizzle | ... I thought it came with compiz fusion | 04:42 |
| epimeth | K -> settings -> desktop -> desktop effects | 04:42 |
| jabrroa | well how would i apply a theme i have in emerald? | 04:42 |
| jabrroa | ?? | 04:44 |
| Relyc | hello | 05:19 |
| Relyc | >??test | 05:19 |
| Relyc | ok hehe sry thnx | 05:20 |
| Relyc | i cant set up a network with another ubuntu machine it says permission denied in the main user on a non protected file | 05:23 |
| bdizzle | okay, this is a bit strange | 05:36 |
| bdizzle | hello? | 05:39 |
| rjune_ | sup | 05:39 |
| bdizzle | hi | 05:39 |
| bdizzle | so for some reason, when trying to install 8.10 from the live CD, it claims I have no partitions ... or hard drives for that matter | 05:40 |
| Out_Cold | the hard drive needs to be mounted | 05:42 |
| bdizzle | wouldn't it do that though when it loads the live CD? | 05:42 |
| rjune_ | Out_Cold: while technically that might be correct. it's also useless | 05:42 |
| Out_Cold | should have done it... | 05:42 |
| rjune_ | bdizzle: boot the live cd, then open a terminal | 05:42 |
| Out_Cold | well it gives him a direction. | 05:42 |
| rjune_ | run 'dmesg | less' | 05:42 |
| Out_Cold | i'm a noob too | 05:42 |
| rjune_ | look for sda as that should be your hard drive | 05:42 |
| rjune_ | I'm guessing for whatever reason your sata controller isn't being detected | 05:43 |
| rjune_ | is it RAID? | 05:43 |
| bdizzle | k, hold on just a second | 05:43 |
| bdizzle | no, IDE | 05:43 |
| bdizzle | both physical drives are | 05:43 |
| rjune_ | might be hda then. I don't remember | 05:43 |
| Deepthought | How can I get all disks (including the NTFS ones) to be accessible from the start, instead of having to give a password each time on first access ? | 05:43 |
| rjune_ | still you should see it listed as detected | 05:43 |
| bdizzle | some of them are hda, some are sda | 05:43 |
| Out_Cold | hda is IDE | 05:43 |
| bdizzle | ugh, not sure anyore | 05:43 |
| bdizzle | Deepthought: not sure, I did it a long time ago and its kinda messed up my system since | 05:44 |
| rjune_ | bdizzle: look for da, "/da" | 05:44 |
| bdizzle | hold on | 05:44 |
| bdizzle | restarting computer with 8.10 disk in it | 05:44 |
| Deepthought | bdizzle: what´s messed up yer system ? | 05:45 |
| bdizzle | um ... me, making a lot of changes I wasn't quite sure what I was doing of patching things together | 05:45 |
| Deepthought | bdizzle: in KDE3 there was a tab for disk-automount in systemsettings, now on 4 there´s no such thing | 05:46 |
| bdizzle | ah, okay | 05:46 |
| bdizzle | well, the structure has got to be the same, which means there has to be some way to set it via CLI | 05:46 |
| bdizzle | which is why with the latest Grub 25 error, I said screw it and decided just to back everything up. Now that I've got it working to boot and such, I'm just going to wipe and start over | 05:46 |
| rjune_ | except that it's not finding your hard drive | 05:47 |
| rjune_ | or rather, doesn't seem to be | 05:47 |
| bdizzle | okay, I have it loaded off the live CD | 05:49 |
| frozty_sa | does anyone know of a bug in which firefox became incredibly shitty after an update or something since roundabout last friday? | 05:49 |
| frozty_sa | the problem I'm having is that firefox is incredibly slow to respond on both my laptop and my PC | 05:49 |
| bdizzle | what am I running? | 05:49 |
| bdizzle | okay, this is going to be crazy with all the partitions, but it will at least help in future upgrades | 05:54 |
| bdizzle | how do I take an existing 100 GB partition of Kubuntu 8.04 and split it so that I have a 15 GB partition for root and an 85 GB partition for home? | 05:55 |
| Out_Cold | bdizzle, do a custom partition and make sure you format your sections to ext3 and mount the 15 GB partition as / and the 85GB as /home | 05:57 |
| bdizzle | okay | 05:57 |
| bdizzle | that's what I needed | 05:57 |
| bdizzle | 15000 MB = 15 GB, right? | 05:57 |
| Out_Cold | close enough | 05:58 |
| bdizzle | ok | 05:58 |
| Out_Cold | i think you can even do 15 GB | 05:58 |
| bdizzle | and that will be large enough for root, no matter how many programs I do? | 05:58 |
| Out_Cold | yea. | 05:58 |
| bdizzle | no, it wants partition size in MB still | 05:58 |
| bdizzle | should I go for 20 GB for future just to be safe? | 05:58 |
| bdizzle | or is 15 GB already too much? | 05:59 |
| Out_Cold | you can always mount more space after | 05:59 |
| Out_Cold | i have never used more than 10 myself | 05:59 |
| bdizzle | okay | 05:59 |
| Out_Cold | except on my server.. | 05:59 |
| Out_Cold | but i just mounted another hard drive to accommodate | 05:59 |
| bdizzle | lol, okay | 06:00 |
| bdizzle | alright, so I have 15 GB as root, and about 94 GB as home, fun | 06:00 |
| bdizzle | ext3 is still the safest, right? | 06:01 |
| bdizzle | for general use | 06:01 |
| Out_Cold | what i have done with mine is set aside an extra few GB for a transfer partition... has worked well for safe guarding files | 06:01 |
| Out_Cold | yea | 06:01 |
| Out_Cold | it's safer than the others | 06:01 |
| bdizzle | yeah, I've already got another HD on here with 80 GB total (half of that used for windows XP), with two other partitions on this HD with another 200 GB or so | 06:02 |
| bdizzle | gah, pretty soon they are going to have to make these liveCDs a two CD set | 06:02 |
| Out_Cold | yea.. i use LVMs on my server and have about 8-9 partitions on there | 06:02 |
| bdizzle | its crazy | 06:03 |
| bdizzle | I'm glad I discovered partitions though, its easier to sort through files and back stuff up | 06:03 |
| Out_Cold | it'll pay when you tarball your data and learn to cat or ssh it to a backup.. | 06:04 |
| bdizzle | lol | 06:04 |
| bdizzle | if only I could figure that out | 06:05 |
| bdizzle | or at least how to set up my own ssh | 06:05 |
| Out_Cold | not too difficult. ssh only needs openssh installed.. | 06:05 |
| Out_Cold | * openssh_server maybe | 06:05 |
| Out_Cold | search for it in the package manager | 06:06 |
| Out_Cold | then you open port 22 in your firewall | 06:06 |
| Out_Cold | i learned it all in gnome.. not sure the exact programs for KDE | 06:06 |
| bdizzle | okay | 06:08 |
| Out_Cold | firestarter was the app i used for the firewall GUI | 06:08 |
| bdizzle | okay, so since 8.04 uses KDE3 and 8.10 uses KDE4, can I still copy over my old home folder and get it to load things back up? | 06:08 |
| bdizzle | yeah, I've used firestarter before. Nice program. Click it and forget it | 06:08 |
| Out_Cold | that i dunno about | 06:08 |
| scribbles | bdizzle: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto | 06:09 |
| bdizzle | thanks | 06:09 |
| PsiKloPx | hiya | 06:12 |
| bdizzle | hi | 06:12 |
| bdizzle | my apologizes for believing that #kde might kow | 06:13 |
| bdizzle | *know | 06:13 |
| PsiKloPx | hey, suppose one downloaded and installed the latest Kubuntu version, then wanted switch to Ubuntu. Is this a pain or even possible? | 06:13 |
| Out_Cold | one way you'll find out bdizzle is trying it out | 06:14 |
| Out_Cold | PsiKloPx, it's easy | 06:14 |
| bdizzle | true | 06:15 |
| Out_Cold | you just need to install the default gnome packages... can't remember them all exactly atm | 06:15 |
| bdizzle | PsiKloPx: sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop, I believe | 06:15 |
| PsiKloPx | bdizzie:then I would have the option to switch at start-up? | 06:16 |
| Out_Cold | yea it's in the choose session | 06:17 |
| Out_Cold | can load several managers and environments | 06:17 |
| Out_Cold | but be weary cuz each of the desktop environments load each of their own sets of apps to use | 06:18 |
| PsiKloPx | gnome-desktop isn't correct. | 06:18 |
| PsiKloPx | just tried gnome, that worked. | 06:19 |
| PsiKloPx | or it appears to be working at any rate. | 06:19 |
| Out_Cold | might need more though | 06:19 |
| Out_Cold | actually gnome should work.. | 06:20 |
| Out_Cold | although that wasn't a default install on my ubuntu install | 06:20 |
| bdizzle | I didn't really like GNOME to be honest. No offense to anyone, but it just seemed too clunky to me | 06:23 |
| bdizzle | yes, it got the job done, no questions asked about that | 06:23 |
| bdizzle | but it just didn't have the grace and elegance that KDE seems to have | 06:24 |
| andyman1 | i had a quick grub question, if i remember correctly, i can make grub instantly auto-boot to the default partition, without showing anything, but also be able to hit ESC to abort that and choose manually, i need to boot default after 0 seconds, and enable hide boot menu | 06:25 |
| PsiKloPx | well, I'm a noob when it comes to linux. I want to be able to play around with each and see which I like. | 06:25 |
| Out_Cold | yea.. well i can say the same type of things about kde.... lack of tidyness.. weird menu layouts lol | 06:25 |
| andyman1 | trying out the kde grub editor in kubuntu, | 06:25 |
| Out_Cold | all preferences | 06:26 |
| noaXess | how can i search for installed package only in konsole? | 06:26 |
| bdizzle | point taken | 06:27 |
| Pyles17 | How do I "reset" kubuntu? Trying to fix my wireless, I changed a lot of things, and don't remember what they all were | 06:32 |
| bdizzle | reinstall it? | 06:33 |
| Pyles17 | any shorter way? | 06:33 |
| andyman1 | my bad-idea guess is delete all the hidden kde files in your home directory, and kde will rebuild those will defaults when you relogin. note i said bad-idea, as it really is probably a bad idea | 06:35 |
| andyman1 | i remember some programs working that way, dunno if it applies to kde as well | 06:35 |
| === mumin is now known as woodefec | ||
| andyman1 | again, probably a very bad idea =p | 06:35 |
| woodefec | hey | 06:35 |
| andyman1 | no takers on my grub question? | 06:36 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: why reset? no wireless adapter? | 06:36 |
| woodefec | is that normal - the KDE theme in kubuntu 8.10 isn't held by the system, it always gets back to Oxygen | 06:36 |
| woodefec | and my user hasn't been in the group users | 06:37 |
| woodefec | and third thing: i don't know where's the Firefox menu position in kmenu | 06:37 |
| bdizzle | crap, I just remembered I need something because I'm connecting to the school network | 06:37 |
| bdizzle | I think it is Java (Sun's version of it) and Firefox | 06:37 |
| bdizzle | it won't accept Konqueror for some resaon | 06:37 |
| bdizzle | *reason | 06:37 |
| woodefec | andyman1: what the grub question? | 06:38 |
| woodefec | is someone having the kubuntu issues i mentioned? | 06:38 |
| woodefec | oh, one more, i start firefox and get just nothing | 06:38 |
| andyman1 | i want grub to insta-auto-boot the default partition, with no prompts or obvious hints grub is there, i'd also like to hit a button to abort that, and manually choose | 06:38 |
| woodefec | only from time to time it starts | 06:39 |
| andyman1 | i think hide grub menu, and boot default in 0 sec is what i want, but wanted to confirm before i accidentally get stuck that way | 06:39 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: I have the intel 3945 card, which is problematic anyways. It only connected sometimes. so in trying to fix it I tried a bunch of people's advice, changed a bunch of things, and now it doesn't even connect sometimes | 06:39 |
| woodefec | andyman1: kgrubeditor | 06:39 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: have you tried wicd? | 06:40 |
| andyman1 | i've got the grub editor, just wanted to confirm those are the changes i need to do that properly | 06:40 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: what tool you use for connecting to a wlan? | 06:40 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: the one that comes installed with it? | 06:40 |
| Pyles17 | with kubuntu* | 06:41 |
| woodefec | well, youshould increasethe decision time to 3 from what i understood | 06:41 |
| woodefec | oh, andyman1, u better be careful, leaving the time to 0 might prevent you from going runlevel 3 or failsafe stuff or memtest | 06:42 |
| andyman1 | ah ok | 06:43 |
| woodefec | are you guys having this stuff: kde4 and qt settings go back to Oxygen theme, even if Ichoose another | 06:43 |
| bdizzle | alright, why does Kubuntu 8.10 take 30 seconds to log off? | 06:43 |
| andyman1 | my goal here is *boot* "oh that's just windows, nothing to see here" *boot + keypress* "i can choose my boot option" | 06:43 |
| woodefec | i don't quote understand, andyman1 | 06:44 |
| woodefec | *quote = quite | 06:44 |
| woodefec | aaaaaaaaa | 06:44 |
| woodefec | sorry, now i understand | 06:44 |
| andyman1 | i want to turn on the computer, and have it appear to boot straight to windows, as if windows is the only thing there (to the untrained eye), and then have a way to abort that and choose linux when i want | 06:45 |
| andyman1 | aka "these aren't the droids you're looking for" | 06:45 |
| woodefec | well, check internet for advanced grub instructions and be careful. Always have a Knoppix Live or equivalent | 06:45 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: try wicd http://wicd.sourceforge.net/ | 06:45 |
| andyman1 | k | 06:46 |
| bdizzle | wicd is nice | 06:46 |
| bdizzle | very clean interface, easy to set up | 06:46 |
| noaXess | bdizzle: jep ;) | 06:46 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: k, but i'm not sure if that will do it. the main problem is that it can't find the driver for the card most of the time. and then sometimes it finds it | 06:47 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: aha.. ok..thats another information.. hm... | 06:47 |
| noaXess | wait.. | 06:47 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: just a simple google search: http://www.google.ch/search?hl=de&q=ubuntu+intel+3945&btnG=Google-Suche&meta= | 06:48 |

| binMonkey | hi. i just bought a linksys router, 192.168.1.1 my dsl modem, 192,168.0.1, plugs into it. should i change the address on the dsl to match the router? | 06:49 |
| noaXess | german sorry.. | 06:49 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: are you swiss, or do you just like to do your google searches in german? | 06:50 |

| Pyles17 | but i think i blacklisted that trying to use ipw3945 to see if that would work | 06:56 |
| bdizzle | meh, the one part of upgrading to a new OS is trying to copy over all your old files and getting back your old programs | 06:56 |
| bdizzle | a computer can only copy stuff so quickly before it just hates you | 06:56 |
| bdizzle | is there an icon for a "Home" folder of type? | 07:00 |
| bdizzle | last time I used the icon for kfm_home | 07:01 |
| bdizzle | or one for trash for that matter? | 07:02 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: i actually didn't blacklist iwlwifi 3945 | 07:02 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: do you had this problem also on the fresh install of kubuntu? what abou booting from the kubuntu live cd and test the wlan? i should be loaded and usable from the live cd.. | 07:04 |
| Pyles17 | tried that, it didn't work | 07:04 |
| noaXess | ok | 07:05 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: have you any usb wlan stick to test? | 07:05 |
| Pyles17 | I've pretty much come to the conclusion that the intel 3945 cards are not compatible with linux | 07:05 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: i forgot about that, just a minute | 07:05 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: it should.. but it can also be damaged.. | 07:05 |
| noaXess | hardware problem.. or does it worked in any other way? | 07:06 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: windows xp works perfectly | 07:07 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: ok.. than it's a driver problem.. | 07:07 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: yeah, i know. and a belkin sticks works right away | 07:08 |
| Pyles17 | stick* | 07:08 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: thats a good information ;) | 07:09 |
| noaXess | hm.. just wait in this channel.. and ask again later.. you will find a solution.. i had it also with a intel wlan and fixed it.. | 07:09 |
| Pyles17 | yeah. eventually | 07:09 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: bye the way.. latest kernel installed? | 07:10 |
| Pyles17 | noaXess: Well, i have 8.10, but i don't know if that means anything. I'm brand new to Linux | 07:10 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: just install all the updates and the system should be up to date.. | 07:12 |
| noaXess | Pyles17: run konsole and input this command to se the kernel version: uname -a | 07:12 |

| gl_ | I just updated openoffce 3.0.4 and it stopped working. Does anybody have the same problem? | 07:17 |
| bdizzle | oh joy, first problem already | 07:19 |
| bdizzle | tried to enable desktop effects, I now have a black screen with a movable white cursor | 07:19 |
| bdizzle | ugh, fried the system already | 07:21 |
| bdizzle | sad part is that it was undergoing an update, and I'm afraid to ask what software it decided to hose | 07:21 |
| eagles0513875 | woot im good | 07:34 |
| bdizzle | who broke Adept in 8.10? | 07:39 |
| eagles0513875 | u did | 07:40 |
| eagles0513875 | im having no issues | 07:40 |
| eagles0513875 | i have a vm with 8.10 but then again i did take the ubuntu server version and add kde to it | 07:40 |
| bdizzle | for some reasoning the right panel that shows the names of programs and such keeps garbling up, as if the graphics aren't rendering properly | 07:41 |
| eagles0513875 | i have no idea bdizzle | 07:44 |
| bdizzle | also, how do I turn down the sensitivity on my mouse. It seems to be skipping over and doing double and triple of what I ask it to | 07:46 |

| bdizzle | lol | 08:00 |
| bdizzle | how do I move around things on the new kicker or whatever that new panel along the bottom of KDE4 is called | 08:01 |
| bdizzle | ugh | 08:01 |
| mankeletor | im still trying to config the screen here :P | 08:02 |
| kabotage | how do i fix this? everytime i login it wont let me log in and all i see is the login page and it justs repeat. im on a liveCD btw. | 08:03 |
| bdizzle | this is perhaps the most frustrating KDE version I've seen yet | 08:03 |

| eagles05 | what package do i need to install for a really stripped down version of kde | 08:30 |
| eagles0513875 | what package do i need to install for a really stripped down version of kde | 08:31 |
| bdizzle | xubuntu I think you mean | 08:32 |
| eagles0513875 | bdizzle ??? | 08:32 |
| bdizzle | xubuntu, its not kde anymore though | 08:33 |
| eagles0513875 | i want a stripped down pkg of kde | 08:33 |
| eagles0513875 | not xubuntu | 08:33 |
| eagles0513875 | bdizzle all u install is kde-core | 08:35 |
| bdizzle | oh, okay | 08:36 |
| bdizzle | grr, how do I get w32codecs from CLI? It keeps claiming that the package is not available, but is referred to by another package | 08:36 |
| eagles0513875 | !w32codecs | 08:36 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 08:36 |
| eagles0513875 | bdizzle run apt-cache search w32codecs | 08:37 |
| eagles0513875 | and u need that repository enabled as well see link above | 08:37 |
| bdizzle | okay | 08:37 |
| faileas | bdizzle: got medibuntu installed? | 08:37 |
| faileas | er.. too slow ;p | 08:38 |
| bdizzle | yes | 08:38 |
| bdizzle | it claims it has no installation candidate | 08:39 |
| eagles0513875 | what codecs u need outa there anyway | 08:39 |
| bdizzle | just libdvdcss2 | 08:40 |
| eagles0513875 | there is no open source alternative | 08:41 |
| eagles0513875 | !multimedia | 08:41 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically.

| zoggy | bdizzle: haha!! it's going to be amazing once it's all smoothed out, but right now my productivity is rock-bottom. i really miss the quick browser and kate external tools. also the show desktop concept is making me want to hurt myself | 09:43 |
| bdizzle | yeah, the desktop is annoying | 09:43 |
| bdizzle | I through firefox back on there to make me feel better, and what is up with kate? they butchered it. That command line at the bottom of it was useful | 09:44 |
| zoggy | bdizzle: i'm busy downloading the firefox-qt - keen to see whether that integrates better | 09:46 |
| bdizzle | gotcha | 09:47 |

| livingdaylight | bdizzle: its the least you can expect from your computer, i agree | 09:51 |
| zoggy | can login manager play sound bytes? i wasn't aware of that. perhaps the sound byte could be after login manager | 09:51 |
| bdizzle | I don't know if I can, I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible | 09:51 |
| zoggy | afd____: right-click on the battery icon in the system tray | 09:51 |
| afd____ | zoggy: thanks. I've put it on powersave, it locked my screen when I did that... now let's see what effect it has... | 09:53 |
| bdizzle | okay, this is going to sound crazy, but its about the closest example I can think of | 09:53 |
| zoggy | bdizzle: i'm really not sure hey. maybe that's you should ask it's developers as a start... i'd like to see the kwalletmanager integrated with login-manager, so you type your password once | 09:54 |
| bdizzle | remember in the movie Independence Day with Will Smith, when they are up flying around the crashed ship up to the mothership. David opens his laptop and it says "Good morning David" | 09:54 |
| bdizzle | I'd be interesting to see something like that before the desktop opens | 09:54 |
| zoggy | bdizzle: i do remember that | 09:55 |

| mtux | :-/ | 11:17 |
| SlimeyPete | mtux: just those two ways, really. | 11:17 |

| giu_ | kilessan: how the name for the driver channels? | 13:34 |
| sierran | And some orther | 13:34 |
| sierran | Driver's from ubuntu don't work and from nvidia too | 13:35 |
| kilessan | giu_: no idea, sorry. but for me it looks like binary drivers for 9200 are very old, so will only work with old x servers... newer card or open source drivers are your options, i am afraid | 13:35 |
| sierran | glxinfo say's direct rendering : Yes.. | 13:35 |
| kilessan | ...and the open source drivers do not support 3d and other fancy things | 13:36 |
| giu_ | kilessan how the channel on this server? | 13:36 |
| fleetcommand | for me, it also seems that pre-9500 cards need the RadeonDriver | 13:37 |

| fleetcommand | it states: If you have an ATI Radeon 9500 or newer [..], then you can use the restricted fglrx drivers | 13:37 |
| giu_ | i have 9200 | 13:37 |
| fleetcommand | also that "If you are using an ATI Radeon card that is older than above, you need the open source drivers: RadeonDriver (NOT fglrx). " | 13:37 |
| giu_ | ok | 13:37 |

| giu_ | .. | 13:41 |
| kilessan | my hardy also has nvidia problems... sometimes it does not init the graphics card. never found out why. like i said, nvidia drivers are problematic | 13:42 |
| fleetcommand | giu_: i guess the radeon driver is included, isn't it? | 13:43 |
| giu_ | where? | 13:43 |
| fleetcommand | i'm pretty sure it's included with x since i was able to use my x without enabling fglrx | 13:44 |
| giu_ | there is written, how to remove fglrx and config the x.org | 13:44 |
| giu_ | how can i test it? | 13:44 |
| fleetcommand | so i think that removing fglrx and reinstalling those mesa libs should do the job | 13:44 |
| giu_ | you mean the driver is already installed? | 13:44 |
| giu_ | the opensource one? | 13:45 |
| fleetcommand | i guess so, since most ppl has install nothing to get it work | 13:45 |
| fleetcommand | btw, what distribution are you using? | 13:45 |
| giu_ | kubuntu 8.10 | 13:45 |
| giu_ | i installed it yesterday | 13:45 |
| giu_ | fleetcommand: my xorg is empty | 13:47 |

| giuseppe_ | OxDeadC0de: can you tell me what I have to do? | 18:04 |
| OxDeadC0de | I already told you what to do, in a terminal open up the file with root privileges and make sure it contains the line that automounts your cd-rom drive | 18:06 |
| giuseppe_ | OxDeadC0de: ok, I create the file and added "-fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom" | 18:08 |

| pierre__ | does anyone has problems with firefox3, where tabs aren't themed correctly ? | 18:10 |
| OxDeadC0de | giuseppe worth a try, did /etc/auto.misc not exist before? | 18:12 |
| OxDeadC0de | giuseppe if it didn't you should make sure you have the autofs package installed.. should be installed by default | 18:12 |
| Dragonath | if I install a bunch of backports packages, is there a way to downgrade to the proven stable versions quickly (like disabling the backports repository)? | 18:16 |
| dek | since I installed KDE4 i can no longer do the @ with Alt Gr + Q (latin american keyboard) in many programs, any idea how to fix this? | 18:16 |
| Dragonath | dek: a solution might be to find your old xorg.conf file and look up what it says about your keyboard, then copy that bit to the new xorg.conf and restart the X server | 18:17 |
| Dragonath | dek: you can do the @ in some programs though? | 18:17 |
| dek | Dragonath: yeah, thats the strange part, in some (few) programs it does work | 18:19 |
| dek | Dragonath: I think its on the ones that natively use KDE4 | 18:19 |
| Dragonath | hmm then messing with xorg.conf probably won't work | 18:20 |
| dek | is there something I can configure about programs that are still using KDE3? | 18:21 |
| Dragonath | have you tried changing settings in the system settings module (keyboard and etc)? | 18:21 |
| dek | yes | 18:21 |
| Dragonath | dek: then I don't know what's wrong.. I recently downgraded from kde4 myself, so I can't look in menus and search for something that might help | 18:22 |
| dek | Dragonath: ok, thanks anyway | 18:23 |

| OxDeadC0de | P__ Do you have an nvidia video card? | 18:31 |
| P__ | yes | 18:31 |
| P__ | OxDeadC0de, a Geforce 8700M GT | 18:31 |
| OxDeadC0de | KDE4 doesn't seem to work well with the repo's drivers, you will get better performance with the beta drivers from nvidia - that is for kwin, if you use compiz things should be alright | 18:32 |
| P__ | OxDeadC0de, compiz ? | 18:32 |
| P__ | i have the version 177, is that from the repo ? | 18:33 |
| OxDeadC0de | P__ compiz is a compositing window manager, it replaces kwin | 18:33 |
| P__ | OxDeadC0de, any pro/cons ? | 18:34 |
| OxDeadC0de | P__ most likely, unless you went to nvidia.com, got the drivers, manually installed them | 18:34 |
| P__ | make sense, i can try it | 18:34 |
| OxDeadC0de | compiz-fusion is mature, and fast on nvidia and .. everything.. kwin with compositing seems pretty new, I won't use it until 4.2 at least - if they fix the speed issues | 18:35 |
| milian | anyone else not being able to install librdf-dev & libsvn-dev together due to dependancy-problems? | 18:35 |
| P__ | OxDeadC0de, ok I ll give it a go, thanks for the pointer | 18:36 |
| OxDeadC0de | and compiz-fusion has more plugins.. you get the desktop wall and cube, you can have different wallpapers on each virtual desktop.. Cons would be: scroll wheel on desktop rotates cube with that plugin enabled instead of scrolling the plasmoids | 18:36 |
| OxDeadC0de | not quite sure if it scrolls the plasmoids even with cube rotate off, havn't tried | 18:37 |
| JasonCO | having some issues with compiz -- specifically it seems to start the windows come up but no decorations on them and i cant seem to get a a windowdecorator to work (i use emerald) | 18:38 |

However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.

| Lupus-SLE | So with this new xorg.conf thingy... how can I add modes? | 20:36 |

| Zeelot3k | hey guys, I'm using 64bit 8.10 ubuntu right now and I know I have kubuntu 8.03 32bit on another partition, how can I add this to grub? duno if the 32/64 bit difference is an issue with the kernel or whatever but I'm lost | 20:49 |
| Zeelot3k | I mean I have kubuntu 8.10 32bit | 20:50 |
| Zeelot3k | on a different partition but I don't know how to addit to grub | 20:50 |
| hexagown | The 64-bit version itsen't the best chose, becous its not manny programms compitable with it | 20:50 |
| hexagown | ah, well nvm :D | 20:50 |
| Zeelot3k | thats why I want to dual boot into kubuntu 32bit | 20:50 |
| serenity | JontheEchidna: sounds fine, thanks | 20:51 |
| JontheEchidna | Thanksgiving seems to be slowing progress :P | 20:52 |

| JontheEchidna | yeah, but people travel | 20:53 |

| XVampireX | hey people, KDE 4.2 beta is out :D | 21:12 |
| XVampireX | any chance we could get it some time soon? | 21:12 |
| woden | XVampireX: You can get it | 21:13 |
| XVampireX | no, I'm not going to compile it | 21:13 |
| === thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak | ||
| harolddong | are you talking about the beta? | 21:14 |
| XVampireX | harolddong: yeah | 21:15 |
| loganWHD | hello | 21:15 |
| loganWHD | anyone know how to get 8.10 to print to pdf? | 21:15 |
| XVampireX | print to pdf... | 21:16 |
| XVampireX | sounds weird | 21:16 |
| loganWHD | it does? | 21:16 |
| claydoh | with thanksgiving upon us in the US and other people away it may take a bit extra to get the 4.2 beta out the door | 21:16 |
| claydoh | compared to normal | 21:16 |
| === woden is now known as sigp239 | ||
| JontheEchidna | Plus we're doing an extra round of internal review work on the packages since the jump from 4.1.x -> 4.2 beta isn't small | 21:17 |
| OxDeadC0de | Jason_CO if you're still here, try this: http://www.pastebin.ca/1267935 | 21:17 |
| [GuS] | guys... Hi! Beta1 will be not in PPA ? | 21:17 |
| XVampireX | claydoh: Canonical and Ubuntu are not american companies/products/whatever | 21:17 |
| JontheEchidna | XVampireX: with volunteers from around the world | 21:19 |
| fale | claydoh: I guess tomorrow 4.2 will be packaged ;) | 21:19 |
| etfb | Quick dumb question: I'm writing software that sends HTTP GET and POST requests. I want a utility that will monitor the traffic and let me see it, headers and all. Any suggestions? | 21:19 |
| XVampireX | JontheEchidna: Well Sherlock, figure that out | 21:19 |
| OxDeadC0de | I have a PDF printer installed from the printer manager tool (settings/printing) cups/pdf make and model generic PDF file generator | 21:19 |
| XVampireX | AFAIK, PDF is a file format | 21:20 |
| claydoh | XVampireX: the main dev, for example is on holiday | 21:20 |
| OxDeadC0de | etfb wireshark is decent | 21:20 |
| Neremor | hello! | 21:20 |
| Neremor | is there a way to find out my pc architecture? | 21:20 |
| Neremor | i386 or i686? | 21:20 |
| etfb | OxDeadC0de: Thanks - I'll look it up. | 21:21 |
| XVampireX | I saw that the new systray fixes the silly icon problems | 21:21 |
| Neremor | if i try uname -i i only get the error "unknown" | 21:21 |
| XVampireX | or maybe not | 21:21 |
| claydoh | XVampireX: and others are preparing for thanksgiving, so it may not be relaeased as quickly as usual | 21:21 |
| loganWHD | XVampireX: yes of course and you can print to it | 21:21 |
| XVampireX | print TO it? | 21:21 |
| XVampireX | how's that possible? | 21:21 |
| XVampireX | Maybe you can print it.... | 21:22 |
| XVampireX | but I don't know what printing to it means | 21:22 |
| JontheEchidna | a virtual printer than converts it to pdf | 21:22 |
| etfb | Neremor: kinfocenter is the KDE UI program for the job, perhaps. | 21:22 |
| Neremor | ok thanks | 21:22 |
| Neremor | found out i had to use uname -a | 21:22 |
| Neremor | it says i686 | 21:22 |
| Neremor | what bit type is it? | 21:22 |
| Neremor | 32 or 64? | 21:23 |
| hexagown | 32 | 21:23 |
| XVampireX | Neremor: If it doesn't say x86_64 then it's 32 | 21:23 |
| hexagown | The 64-bit version itsen't the best chose, becous its not manny programms compitable with it | 21:23 |
| XVampireX | 64bit is good enough | 21:23 |
| hexagown | Truth | 21:23 |
| Neremor | ok | 21:23 |
| fale | hexagown: you have problems only on the close source programs ;) | 21:23 |
| Neremor | thanks | 21:23 |
| gl_ | has anybody had any problems with an openoffice 3 update yesterday? | 21:23 |
| loganWHD | sheez talk about symantics | 21:23 |
| loganWHD | what a putz | 21:23 |
| fale | gl_: nope | 21:24 |
| Neremor | because i wasn't sure for months right now and used the 32 bit apps of all software right now | 21:24 |
| gl_ | fale: hi so, are you running 3.0.4? | 21:24 |
| hexagown | I'v really never understand why they diden't put an OpenOffice version in the new Kubuntu (8.10) | 21:24 |
| hexagown | Thats really wierd | 21:24 |
| Neremor | just to make sure i got it right: that means i have to use the package "i386"? | 21:24 |
| fale | gl_: 3.0.0-4 | 21:25 |
| gl_ | fale: ah, yes, are you? | 21:25 |
| fale | yep | 21:25 |
| gl_ | in kubuntu 8.10? | 21:25 |
| fale | hexagown: I guess for a space reason ;) | 21:26 |
| fale | gl_: yep | 21:26 |
| hexagown | Ye guess so... | 21:26 |
| gl_ | Hm... I had the previous version running, but stopped after the update... | 21:26 |
| fale | hexagown: the problem is that 700mb are not a lot... | 21:26 |
| gl_ | running from the console would complain Qt, about painting an object | 21:27 |
| fale | gl_: I dunno... to me it works well | 21:27 |
| gl_ | OK thanks | 21:27 |
| sigp239 | I'm using Ubuntu but I removed GNOME and installed KDE | 21:27 |

| pm2 | Hello - I'm experiencing very slow performance on my laptop, which I suspect is due to harddrive performance. I looked at the output of hdparm, and it shows that DMA is not enabled. When I try to enable it, it says "HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted" -- any thoughts on how to fix this? I'm using Kernel 2.6.24 on Kubuntu | 21:28 |
| fale | pm2: are you tring as normal user, or as root? | 21:29 |
| pm2 | fale, root | 21:29 |
| pm2 | using sudo | 21:29 |
| hexagown | Are you speaking about that CDs only are 700mb? Becous I think it wont... Well it will be abit more expensive, but a DVD dont cost taht mutch, and if you got an "good" DVD its "overriteable" So if you download Kubuntu you can yust overwrite when you want to do it. | 21:29 |
| hexagown | And when you allready got Kubuntu 8.04 you yust download some kind of update, and that has no space limit. | 21:29 |
| fale | hexagown: I guess in a few releases kubuntu will be dvd only... in any case, right now, there is a DVD version ;) | 21:30 |
| Toph | i have just installed Kubuntu 8.10,,, i can't find the Storage Media,,, can you please help? | 21:30 |

| hexagown | Ah okay, well im pritty new with all teh Linux stuffs, so I dont know all about there things, yust try to sort out my won mind right now ^^ | 21:31 |
| Toph | fale: i don't see any of my drives, as i used to under Storage media on the earlier versions | 21:31 |

| ghrocks | hi everyone, im having problems starting kdenlive, ir apparently starts but the it closes itself | 21:32 |
| fale | ghrocks: it returns an error? | 21:32 |
| sigma | is it possible for me to send my amarok audio stream to my headphones and the audio stream from my videos to the pc speakers? (i have the headphones plugged into front audio ports and the speakers plugged into the ports at the back of the motherboard - main ports)? | 21:33 |
| Toph | fale: ,, i only have Home,Network,Root,Trash, Volume. | 21:33 |
| OxDeadC0de | sigma - with pulseaudio it might be possible with some complex setup | 21:33 |
| OxDeadC0de | sigma - might not even be all that complex anymore | 21:33 |
| fale | Toph: Volume ;) | 21:33 |
| ghrocks | it sayas kdenlive crashing...kcrash cannot reach kdeinit launching directly | 21:33 |
| fale | ghrocks: I guess is a packaging bug | 21:34 |
| ghrocks | soi gues i should uninstall it and reinstall it right??? | 21:34 |
| sigma | OxDeadC0de: won't that stuff up phonon though? if not how do i install it? | 21:34 |
| fale | sigma: how many audio cards has your pc? | 21:34 |
| Toph | fale: Volume basically gives me Root plus a couple other directories | 21:34 |
| sigma | fale: one onboard hd nvidia | 21:35 |
| fale | sigma: than I guess only one stream as output | 21:37 |
| sigma | fale: but can't pulse split it? | 21:37 |
| fale | sigma: maybe | 21:37 |
| ghrocks | i received the folloewing error while reinstalling kdenlive the application adept crashed and caused the signal 11 (sigsegv) | 21:37 |
| sigma | fale: in kmix I have 2 "front" sliders, one for the headphones and one for the pc speakers so def looks like its two independent streams | 21:38 |
| ghrocks | any idea?? | 21:38 |
| fale | sigma: than surely you can ;) | 21:39 |
| Toph | fale: ok,, i think i'm figuring it out, but how do i find the size and unused portions of my HD,, i have 2 internal HDDS | 21:39 |
| harolddong | does anybody know I can't change icons of folders on my fat32 drives? Also the drives themselves dont show a drive icon but a folder icon instead which also can't be changed. the permissions seems to be fine I can read and write to the drive I just can't change icons. | 21:39 |
| OxDeadC0de | sigma I have no idea what phonon will and won't do, but sudo apt-get install pulseaudio pulseaudio-utils paprefs paman pavucontrol pavumeter padevchooser paman (If you use vlc vlc-plugin-pulse) | 21:39 |
| fale | Toph: with the right click ;) | 21:40 |

| epimeth | iwlist scanning shows my the network I want to connect to.... however, going to network manager and selecting | 21:41 |
| epimeth | "new connection" does not | 21:41 |
| ghrocks | lol, fale i know u r really busy, but ehmm do u have any idea regarding that error message about the error message im receiving after trying to reinstall kdenlive??? | 21:42 |
| fale | ghrocks: nope, you should signal it on launchpad | 21:42 |
| ghrocks | thnx | 21:43 |
| === Guest84300 is now known as gsa10132 | ||
| epimeth | in fact, iwconfig scanning gives me lots of networks that "new connection" doesn't, "new connection" gives me a ton of ones that iwconfig doesn't! | 21:43 |
| epimeth | noooobody? | 21:46 |
| jabrroa | whats up?meth | 21:48 |
| demon_ | does ubuntu and kbuntu have the same kernel | 21:49 |
| OxDeadC0de | is it just me or is elisa stripped down a bit in ubuntu? | 21:49 |
| jabrroa | yes it does | 21:50 |
| Lupus-SLE | Hey people, I'm trying to run Quake Wars on my Kubuntu 8.10 setup and the game works fine, but I'm having an issue with the widescreen resolutions (16:10 in my case). When I select a non 4:3 resolution, the game doesn't fill the screen properly and gives me a letterbox effect. The only resolution this works for is my desktop resolution of 1440x900. Why does xorg hate me? | 21:52 |
| Lupus-SLE | I'm considering that I may need to add the resolutions I want to use to xorg.conf but I'm not certain and I'm no stranger to completely screwing that file up... yes/no/maybe? Also the fact xorg.conf isn't what it used to be now doesn't help... :( | 21:52 |
| epimeth | jabrroa: you with me? | 21:53 |
| epimeth | Lupus-SLE: I'm having issues with xorg myself... in my case xorg.conf isn't just "not what it used to be". its just plain empty! | 21:54 |
| Lupus-SLE | epimeth: We gotta stick together man! | 21:55 |
| Lupus-SLE | I WILL get quake wars in 1280x800! I simply must! | 21:55 |
| epimeth | yea | 21:56 |
| epimeth | ! | 21:56 |
| epimeth | if you do find anything about it, let me know, eh? | 21:56 |
| epimeth | although... my lappy is at 1280x800 | 21:56 |
| jabrroa | same | 21:57 |
| epimeth | are you sure that its not the *game* that doesn't support 1280x800? | 21:57 |
| epimeth | it might not be an xorg issue | 21:57 |
| demon_ | what kernel does Kubuntu 8.10 use? .27 | 21:57 |
| JontheEchidna | demon_: .27 | 21:58 |
| Lupus-SLE | epimeth: No it's definatly an xorg issue | 21:59 |
| Lupus-SLE | epimeth: Well... | 21:59 |
| Lupus-SLE | epimeth: It's not a game issue | 21:59 |
| Lupus-SLE | I don't think splash damage did THAT bad a coding job. | 21:59 |
| DrLurve | why does kubuntu not allow me permissions to create or modify content in the /root/ folder? o_O | 21:59 |
| Lupus-SLE | DrLurve: Because you're not root are you? | 22:00 |
| Lupus-SLE | epimeth: My theory is that my game is trying to set resolutions which xorg doesn't think it can support, and is thus snapping it to the nearest resolution | 22:02 |
| Lupus-SLE | I think I get a fullscreen 1440x900 resolution with a 1280x800 resolution box in the middle with my game in | 22:03 |
| DrLurve | Lupus-SLE: k now I'm confused. | 22:03 |
| Lupus-SLE | Me: Can I have 1280x800 please? Xorg: We don't serve 1280x800, though 1440x900 is SIMILAR, would you like that instead? Me: Oh go on then. ETQW: Even with the screen resolution of 1440x900, I'm setting it to 1280x800 because you asked me to, so it will appear like it was in a window. | 22:05 |
| Lupus-SLE | Followed by this | Me: RRAAAAGGGEEEEEE!!!!! | 22:05 |
| epimeth | lol | 22:07 |
| epimeth | sorry buuuudy | 22:07 |
| epimeth | demon: check out rname | 22:07 |
| epimeth | DrLurve: you aren't root | 22:08 |
| epimeth | DrLurve: and you shouldn't create things in / | 22:08 |

| epimeth | so anybody a network manager pro? | 22:20 |
| Lupus-SLE | IT DIDN'T WORK! | 22:20 |
| * dr_willis wonders what dident work. | 22:20 | |
| Dragnslcr | Obviously the caps lock key | 22:21 |
| Lupus-SLE | I've added my additional resolutions to xorg.conf and it never did a damn thing! | 22:21 |
| epimeth | Lupus-SLE: yea, the new automatic driver locator thingy is a pain in the butt | 22:23 |
| Lupus-SLE | I don't have a driver issue | 22:23 |
| epimeth | Dragnslcr: you wouldn't happen to be a network manager wiz/ | 22:23 |
| dr_willis | You are not using a KVM switch are you? Using a DVI LCD monitor? ANalog CRT? ANalog LCD? | 22:23 |
| epimeth | I know, I'm just saying that it loads stuff so I don't know what / when you can override | 22:23 |
| Lupus-SLE | I have a "it won't use the resolution for my game that I want it to" problem | 22:23 |
| Dragnslcr | epimeth- don't think so, sorry | 22:24 |
| dr_willis | So the desktop is the proper res then? its jUst a single game thatw wrong? What game? | 22:24 |
| epimeth | dr_willis: iwlist shows me a bunch of wireless networks that "new connection" in network manager doesn't! same going the other way. I need to connect to a iwlist connection... how do I get network manager to display those networks as well??? | 22:25 |
| Lupus-SLE | dr_willis: Not a single game... it's Enemy Territory Quake Wars | 22:25 |
| Lupus-SLE | It seems to know what resolution I want, for instance I want the game to run in 1280x800 | 22:26 |
| Lupus-SLE | My desktop doesn't support that resolution | 22:26 |
| Lupus-SLE | At least xorg doesn't think so | 22:26 |
| Lupus-SLE | So it makes the display 1440x900 and sticks it in a little 1280x800 screen so there's a black border all the way around | 22:27 |
| Lupus-SLE | it works if I set it to 1440x900 but I'm wanting a lower res for a higher frame rate | 22:27 |
| BluesKaj | Lupus-SLE, first of all what graphics card ? | 22:28 |
| ghrocks | hi everyone, im still having issues with kdenlive, now i have an error that says could not find drkonqi executable, any idea of what may be??? | 22:28 |
| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: ATI Radeon x1950XT | 22:29 |

| BluesKaj | Lupus-SLE, ok , if you haven't checked this out it may help your problem http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Intrepid_Installation_Guide | 22:30 |
| jabrroa | yes i know :) | 22:31 |
| jabrroa | although at first it was a hassle | 22:31 |
| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: What do you expect me to do with this? | 22:32 |
| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: I'm not trying to install the fglrx driver, I have that, it works fine. | 22:32 |
| chfwiggum | !glib | 22:32 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about glib | 22:32 |
| chfwiggum | !glib-2.0 | 22:32 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about glib-2.0 | 22:32 |
| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: If my theory is correct and it is just snapping to the nearest resolution, then I just need it to support 1280x800... but I don't know how to ADD support for that resolution because xorg.conf is all different and from what I can see the documentation is practicly non-existant! | 22:33 |
| epimeth | anybody know about network manager "new connection" wireless search showing different results than the ones listed in iwlist ? | 22:36 |
| epimeth | because network manager isn't finding my network, but iwlist is | 22:36 |
| epimeth | and at home, all I did was put in the ssid manually, and that worked. at work I do the same and it does try to connect to the network (and finds it), the network doesn't have dhcp. so when I go and give it a manual configuration it *doesn't* find the network anymore! | 22:37 |

| ahmos | can i do that with adept | 23:01 |
| epimeth | edi_99: tasksel install lamp | 23:01 |

| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: You're not getting my problem. Let me explain it better. I have a 16:10 monitor that supports a maxiumum resolution of 1440x900. This works fine! On my desktop that's not an issue. | 23:15 |
| NCommander | JontheEchidna, and i10n | 23:15 |
| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: But for some reason, xrandr doesn't think I can have any other 16:10 resolutions, and I'd like it to support 1280x800 | 23:15 |
| JontheEchidna | NCommander: we have a script that does that, and historically we have release before even if l10n isn't finished | 23:16 |
| NCommander | I'm almost done with kdegraphics, but I'm stuck in a dialup wonderland | 23:16 |
| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: I believe that if I can set 1280x800, then I can play my game in fullscreen without any borders from it not being able to set the correct resolution | 23:16 |
| JontheEchidna | I thought kdegraphics was already done? | 23:17 |
| BluesKaj | OK Lupus-SLE , my res is stuck at my scrns native 168x1050 , so i see your prob. I'm not able to change mine either | 23:17 |

| Lupus-SLE | Ahmuck: Often it's a better idea to wait until the major bugs are found before upgrading | 23:28 |
| BluesKaj | I just checked mine and the upgrades for different resolutions are now available , too bad yours isn't , Bummer ! :( | 23:28 |
| Ahmuck | ya, i did a new install, but it's baaaad. | 23:28 |
| Lupus-SLE | BluesKaj: I have other resolutions available, they're just not the ones I want!! | 23:29 |
| Lupus-SLE | Ahmuck: Sorry to hear that. | 23:29 |
| * BluesKaj is happy not to be a gamer on linux | 23:29 | |
| Ahmuck | it looks promising but kubuntu should have waited before using this as a release imho. or at least called it the guinea pig release | 23:29 |
| Lupus-SLE | Well... it works for me | 23:29 |
| Lupus-SLE | And KDE 4.1 is a sexy beast | 23:30 |
| Ahmuck | well, it's pretty, but it's also pretty bad | 23:30 |
| Lupus-SLE | I disagree | 23:30 |
| Ahmuck | anyhow, where does one do a hardware check and report now | 23:30 |
| BluesKaj | Ahmuck, right click on the desktop and choose add widgets, the kicker will be available there | 23:31 |
| Lupus-SLE | Ahmuck: i'm still trying to get to grips with what they did to xorg.conf though | 23:31 |
| Ahmuck | Lupus-SLE: interestingly enough, they are going to regress xorg.conf in the next release | 23:31 |
| jontec | speaking of xorg.conf my xrandr only shows the screens for my monitor, not the device and I need to add a higher resolution | 23:31 |

| ActionParsnip | KrispyKreme_: you can do it that way or: sudo dpkg -i /path/to/file.deb | 23:50 |
| KrispyKreme_ | ActionParsnip: have you gotten your wifi to work in intrepid? | 23:51 |
| BluesKaj | yeah ActionParsnip , time enuff for the cli in the future :) | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | KrispyKreme_: yep, works out of the box | 23:51 |
| KrispyKreme_ | ActionParsnip: I need help finding the atheros 5007eg | 23:51 |
| KrispyKreme_ | mine doesn't work for some reason | 23:51 |
| tkstka | BluesKaj how do I make the changes I'm in the adapt installer | 23:52 |
| ActionParsnip | KrispyKreme_: i think madwifi-tools sorts it out | 23:53 |
| BluesKaj | KrispyKreme_, did you see my suggestion about choosing "open with" then , GDebi package installer? | 23:53 |
| KrispyKreme_ | BluesKaj: yeah, I got it installed | 23:54 |
| KrispyKreme_ | ActionParsnip: what does that mean? | 23:54 |
| noaXess | ActionParsnip: kde-printer-applet.. why will this be removed? | 23:54 |
| BluesKaj | tkstka, choose the "sources " icon in adept | 23:54 |
| szrhawaii | oes anyone know how to cancel the kdesktop draing feature | 23:55 |
| szrhawaii | theres a feature that says to use another program as the drawing feature but im not sure how to make it so my ccsm does the drawing instead of the kdesktop | 23:56 |
| ActionParsnip | KrispyKreme_: sudo apt-get install madwifi-tools | 23:56 |
| szrhawaii | #compiz | 23:56 |
| ActionParsnip | noaXess: what did you do to make it want to uninstall? | 23:56 |
| noaXess | ActionParsnip: PureKDE | 23:57 |
| KrispyKreme_ | ActionParsnip: okay, it finished getting the package | 23:57 |
| BluesKaj | tkstka, once you've enabled third party sources , then close the sources dialog box and type flash in the search box , install flashplugin-nonfree | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | KrispyKreme_: reboot, it should be ok. If not, its ndiswrapper for you afaict | 23:59 |
| ActionParsnip | noaXess: well kde-printer-applet is part of kde | 23:59 |
| noaXess | ActionParsnip: kde4 also? | 23:59 |
| tkstka | BluesKaj I'm probably doing something wrong but I cant seem to find source icon anywhere :c | 23:59 |
