| bashbin | hi | 00:01 |
| bashbin | there is a file I am searching for | 00:01 |
| bashbin | this file defines my documents location to be in ~/Documents/ | 00:01 |
| bashbin | this affects for example kwrite | 00:02 |
| bashbin | when I want to save a file, it opens ~/Documents/ by default | 00:02 |
| bashbin | it should open ~/ by default | 00:02 |
| tyfon | bashbin: do you mean the button in the file dialog? | 00:04 |
| bashbin | tyfon, no? | 00:04 |
| tyfon | do you have a mac? | 00:04 |
| bashbin | no *g* | 00:05 |
| tyfon | ;) | 00:05 |
| bashbin | a toshiba laptop | 00:05 |
| tyfon | then you have windows probably | 00:05 |
| bashbin | yep, Windows 8.04 | 00:05 |
| bashbin | ;) | 00:05 |
| tyfon | oh it came preinstalled with that? | 00:05 |
| tyfon | erm | 00:05 |
| bashbin | tyfon, no I installed it by myself | 00:05 |
| tyfon | rofl | 00:05 |
| tyfon | sorry | 00:05 |
| tyfon | i thought i was talking to skole :p | 00:05 |
| bashbin | tyfon :) | 00:06 |
| bashbin | tyfon, please open kwrite | 00:06 |
| bashbin | ALT+F2 -> kwrite | 00:06 |
| bashbin | CTRL + S to save it | 00:06 |
| bashbin | the default location to be displayed in the "Save Dialoque" is ~/Documents | 00:06 |
| bashbin | this also effects many other programs | 00:06 |
| tyfon | hmm | 00:06 |

| genii | korn: You want to know what the .d part of init.d means for instance? | 01:07 |

| Adola | nVidia's solution to multi GPU's are SLi and ATi's is Crossfire. | 01:08 |
| Ch1ppy | Adola: Oh, sorry. Not quite what I meant | 01:08 |

| Adola | szrhawaii: yes it is. | 01:11 |
| szrhawaii | how do i manage that | 01:11 |
| Ch1ppy | Adola: I want to do the same thing. I'll need it for screen #3, because I'm that hardcore :) | 01:12 |
| genii | korn: update-rc.d will set what daemons run at what runlevels of the machine. | 01:12 |
| genii | korn: But generally if you call a script in /etc/init.d for instance, you give it some argument like stop/start/restart or so which tells it what to do | 01:13 |
| szrhawaii | adola how do i do that | 01:13 |
| Adola | yeah, that's pretty hardcore BUT in CPU's magazine this month..They did a 14 monitor computereee | 01:13 |

| gaelan | speaking of Amarok, has anyone else had a problem with amarok responding slowly to pause/stop/play/volume commands? | 01:16 |
| gaelan | i'll adjust the volume, but the sound continues at the same level for about 5 seconds | 01:16 |
| szrhawaii | maybe its your sound driver | 01:17 |
| Adola | Gaelan : No, but I can't get it to speak with Kopete. | 01:17 |
| Adola | They have a section on lagg and hangups in the FAQ of AmaroK's webpage | 01:17 |
| gaelan | thanks, i'll check there | 01:17 |
| Adola | Where is your repo list? | 01:18 |
| Adola | I mean, where is THE repo list? | 01:18 |
| szrhawaii | i guess no one knows | 01:18 |
| genii | Adola: /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:18 |
| Adola | Thansk! | 01:18 |

| tyfon | korn: look in /etc/rc2.d you can see all that stars in the default runlevel (2) | 01:27 |
| tyfon | all that are prefixed with an S and those with K will stop at that runlevel (0 is shutdown and 6 is reboot.. 1 is singleuser mode) | 01:28 |
| tyfon | /etc/rc0.d would be for runlevel 0 and /etc/rc1.d for level 1 etc | 01:29 |
| korn | genii and tyfon: thanks, what are the run-levels? | 01:29 |
| korn | as in, how many are there? | 01:30 |
| genii | korn: runlevels are the state of the machine. In ubuntu 2,3,4 and 5 are multi-user runlevels (identical) | 01:30 |
| tyfon | those 4 basically.. | 01:30 |
| tyfon | and yes like genii sais | 01:30 |
| genii | korn: 6 plus 0 is 7 runlevels altogether | 01:30 |
| tyfon | ubuntu starts default in runlevel 2 | 01:30 |
| genii | korn: 0 is halt, 1 is single-use and 6 is reboot | 01:30 |
| tyfon | to switch runlevel you can use telinit... typing sudo telinit 0 will halt your machine and sudo telinit 6 will reboot | 01:31 |
| korn | genii and tyfon: thanks, but would single-user mode (Level 1) throw out all other users logged on the machine | 01:34 |
| genii | korn: Yes | 01:34 |
| tyfon | yes and shut down all the daemons and X | 01:34 |
| tyfon | its for system maintnance | 01:34 |
| tyfon | if you add single to the kernel boot command line you will boot straight into single user mode.. nice if you messed up something and need to fix it :) | 01:36 |

| Firefishe | I'm currently testing the live cd version of Kubuntu 8.10, KDE 4.1, on an Asus G50V-X1 laptop (Intel T5750 CPU, Nvidia 9700M GT GPU. Is there any specific reason to upgrade to the 64bit variety over the 32 bit variety? | 01:51 |
| genii | Firefishe: Some speed increase, recognition of large ram size. | 01:54 |
| genii | Firefishe: Many apps are natively 32 bit however so you'd have to run them by installing the 32 bit libraries into your 64 bit version anyhow | 01:55 |
| Firefishe | genii: | 01:58 |
| Firefishe | <fingernails, go figure> ;) | 01:58 |
| genii | Firefishe: Yes ? | 01:58 |
| Firefishe | genii: I've got exactly 4GB of ram, and this is a laptop, not a server. | 01:58 |
| genii | Firefishe: With 32 bit you'll see about 3.2G of it. | 01:59 |
| Firefishe | genii: that's it, eh? | 01:59 |
| Firefishe | is putting in a PAE kernel worth the trouble? | 01:59 |
| genii | Firefishe: Probably not since you have to mess with it every time theres a kernel update | 02:00 |
| genii | Firefishe: Suggest either to install 64bit with package ia32-libs to run the 32 bit apps, or else just stock 32bit system which runs everything usually out of box | 02:01 |
| Firefishe | genii: I have the 32-bit cd, and so far, everything's working (have to test the ethernet port) and 4.1 looks great. To install kde 3.5.x, I just load the kde-desktop, don't I? | 02:03 |
| genii | Firefishe: kde 3 is no longer supplied or supported after 8.04 | 02:04 |
| genii | Firefishe: The package kubuntu-desktop in later versions than this just install kde4 versions | 02:05 |
| Firefishe | genii: I'm already sold on 4.1.x now anyway. It looks great, feels great, is a ton faster, and is nicely integrated. Just one minor itch, personal to me: Is there any way to make the <kde panel> transparent? I need more contrast on the clock applete (widget, whatevah). | 02:07 |
| Firefishe | I'm still learning the new names. | 02:07 |
| genii | Firefishe: I'm still currently using kde3 as main desktop so don't know offhand | 02:08 |
| Firefishe | genii: no probs. I tried 4.0 out a while ago, and it was too buggy for me. This is much nicer. | 02:10 |
| JontheEchidna | Firefishe: currently you have to use a theme that is more transparent. I believe slim-glow is installed by default | 02:10 |
| JontheEchidna | right-click desktop -> desktop settings | 02:10 |
| JontheEchidna | then at the bottom of the dialog there should be a widget theme selector | 02:10 |

| dr_willis | State the Question.. See who can help | 02:53 |
| Danu | my english sucks so forgive me | 02:53 |
| Danu | better if you see pics | 02:54 |

| Danu | I just install Amarok 2 | 02:54 |
| dr_willis | There are Kubuntu Specific channels in other languages also. | 02:54 |

| Danu | they're all sleeping | 02:55 |

| Danu | I just installed it (Amarok 2) | 02:55 |
| bipolar | Danu: Is ESD running? | 02:55 |
| Danu | and if i have question : statistics doesn't exist anymore? | 02:55 |
| Danu | Mr. bipolar =S | 02:56 |
| * dr_willis isent sure what Danu it talking about.. YOu are saying some 'feature' in amarok is missing is the 'problem' ? | 02:56 | |
| Danu | No | 02:56 |
| bipolar | Danu: talking about the message about the intel sound card working and falling back to ESD? | 02:56 |
| Danu | is just a question, the problem is in the pics | 02:56 |
| dr_willis | pics? You Mean the Album art? | 02:57 |
| Danu | i don't think that ESD is running | 02:57 |
| Danu | no , the pics in the links | 02:57 |
| Danu | imageshack | 02:57 |
| bipolar | dr_willis: the first pic shows an error with the sound card | 02:57 |
| Danu | the second is the worst | 02:57 |
| bipolar | Danu: if ESD is running, it may be interfering with Phonon... not sure. | 02:57 |
| dr_willis | You MAY want to spend the time to actually type up the questions then. Not everyone has WEB browsers to look at imageshacks :) | 02:58 |
| bipolar | Danu: not sure if Amarok 2 is ready for general use yet. | 02:58 |
| dr_willis | I gotta run to work. bye alll...... | 02:58 |
| Danu | Bye | 02:58 |
| Danu | I install it because they told that this was the final version | 02:58 |
| Danu | Mr. bipolar | 02:58 |
| bipolar | Danu: also, you're running Gnome as your DE, so you may want to ask in #ubuntu | 02:58 |
| bipolar | Danu: you are correct. Amarok2 was just realeaseed | 02:59 |
| bipolar | ...just released | 02:59 |
| Danu | By the way i'm using Gnome because my KDE 4 got crazy | 02:59 |
| bipolar | Danu: try booting into kde and see if you get the same kind of error. | 03:00 |
| mooglinux | using kde 4.1, only complaint really is that the widgets raent the most responsive. does 4.2 have some performance tweaks? | 03:00 |
| Danu | Ok thanks,(since a week ago my KDE 4 turn off) | 03:02 |
| Danu | Bye | 03:02 |
| Danu | and Thanks | 03:02 |

| SiVA_ | after "configure window behaviour", then I click "Windows", then the | 03:08 |

| mooglinux | sudo apt-get install zlib gtkglext libpng etc. | 03:50 |
| No1PeaceDragon | ok is new widescreen monitor there a simple fix or just delete the games that are not supported | 03:50 |
| No1PeaceDragon | ? | 03:50 |
| cadoo | keres_: it might be easier through adept or synaptics | 03:51 |
| mooglinux | edit your xorg.conf file to add the resoltions your monitor does support. its kindof a pain, be forewarned. alternatly, if you ahve an nvidia or ati card, those drivers ushually include a utility to edit the xorg.conf | 03:52 |

| keres_ | i visit nexuiz forums alot, idk why i didn't see that | 04:00 |
| da_ | can I download Amarok to Ubumtu 8.04? | 04:03 |
| mooglinux | yup | 04:03 |
| da_ | okay, thanks... | 04:03 |
| keres_ | i have both gnome and kde installed | 04:04 |

| keres_ | i'm using konversation in gnome atm | 04:04 |
| da_ | well, I just bought a MP3 player that only works with windows. working on it all dat to no avail... | 04:05 |
| keres_ | da_: what brand? | 04:06 |
| da_ | Spi | 04:06 |
| keres_ | never heard of it :S | 04:06 |
| mooglinux | the best way to work with mp3 players is if they have a 'mass storage' option. then it just shows up like a normal flash drive, and you can drag and drop your music | 04:07 |
| da_ | me either, comes from my wifes ULTA store.. | 04:07 |
| keres_ | how do you know where a .deb installed to? | 04:07 |
| keres_ | ARG | 04:08 |
| keres_ | i'm missing GTK+ dependency | 04:08 |
| genii | keres_: dpkg -L <packagename> | 04:10 |
| keres_ | genii: so "sudo dpkg -L gtk+ | 04:10 |
| keres_ | ? | 04:10 |
| stdin | what are you trying to install? | 04:11 |
| genii | keres_: I think that will expand out and cover a lot of packages | 04:11 |
| keres_ | stdin: i have installed gtkradiant, but it needs gtk+ | 04:11 |
| keres_ | genii: so will that work? | 04:11 |
| stdin | keres_: don't you have jockey installed? | 04:12 |
| keres_ | stdin: no? wahts jockey? | 04:12 |
| keres_ | Package `gtk+' is not installed. | 04:12 |
| stdin | jockey-kde will help you install .deb packages by fetching it'd dependencies from the apt repositories | 04:12 |
| stdin | *it's | 04:12 |
| genii | !info gtk+ | 04:13 |
| ubottu | Package gtk+ does not exist in intrepid | 04:13 |
| genii | keres_: No, that won't work | 04:13 |
| stdin | it should be installed in gutsy+ iirc | 04:13 |
| bdizzle | da_ those should work. MP3's are essentially flash drives | 04:13 |
| shad0w0fsin | does anyone know how to bypass kdm and autologin to a user and then immediately lock the screen? | 04:13 |
| keres_ | when i start up radiant, i get a saying: | 04:14 |
| keres_ | runtime error: GTK+ error: Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting and adjustment with a non-zero page size is deprecated | 04:14 |
| keres_ | radiant/main.cpp:186 | 04:14 |
| stdin | then that's a problem with the package, it's too old | 04:14 |
| keres_ | the .deb i installed? | 04:15 |
| stdin | the actual application, not the .deb | 04:15 |
| stdin | the code is too old | 04:15 |
| keres_ | it's gtkradiant 1.5 | 04:15 |
| keres_ | :S | 04:15 |
| keres_ | not too old | 04:15 |
| stdin | well it's using deprecated GTK features and it's causing it to abort, so it is | 04:16 |
| keres_ | can it be fixed? | 04:16 |
| keres_ | or a workaround? | 04:16 |
| stdin | only by using an older version of GTK+ or rewriting the application | 04:16 |
| keres_ | stdin: i got it from here: http://alientrap.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3093 | 04:16 |
| keres_ | stdin: i have 8.10, if i run an old GTK+ will it mess things up? | 04:17 |
| stdin | yes | 04:17 |
| keres_ | :S | 04:17 |
| stdin | that package is for Gutsy/Hardy apparently | 04:17 |
| _2 | what's this k3b error, medium or device does not suport write speed 8x switching to 16x ??? | 04:18 |
| stdin | keres_: try posing the error to that forum and asking for advice | 04:18 |
| genii | _2: Does it actually write anything at 16x ? | 04:19 |
| _2 | genii yes, but that's not the point, i was trying to gain a safty margen and the program goes "oh, that !*^# doesn't know what's best for him, i'll set it to max speed" ;/ | 04:20 |
| _2 | did microsoft write k3b by any chance ? | 04:21 |
| genii | _2: Possibly your disks don't like slower than 16 | 04:21 |
| _2 | a cdr that can't be burned at 1x ? | 04:21 |
| genii | _2: I have some like that, won't go less than 4x for instance | 04:22 |
| _2 | hmmm, still seems that the app should have errored out, and let me choose whether or not i wanted a faster speed or not, this automatic change of settings crap is way to M$'ish for me. | 04:23 |
| * _2 <- control freek extreemest zealott | 04:24 | |
| _2 | i'm like if i could tolerate that kind of behaviour i would still be using windows | 04:25 |

| _2 | or is that .* | 04:34 |
| _2 | if all i was going to do was a clip and resize i would use the smaller lighter faster kolourpaint if i was going to do heavy editing i would use the heaver app | 04:35 |

| szrhawaii | my laptop is trying to access the access point but when it does the access point shuts down and the laptop ends up taking it over but doesnt give me service to the router so there is a conflict i am trying to solve there | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | szrhawaii: ah so you have 2 lots of wireless connectivity? | 07:30 |
| szrhawaii | yeah | 07:30 |
| ActionParsnip | szrhawaii: are they using the same channel? | 07:30 |
| szrhawaii | its a secured access point ran by a secured router | 07:30 |
| ActionParsnip | szrhawaii: if they are both using the same channel it aint gonna fly | 07:31 |
| szrhawaii | yeah everything is set up on that end cause everyone elses comp gets on but mine | 07:31 |
| szrhawaii | how do i configure mine to work properly | 07:31 |
| ActionParsnip | szrhawaii: you could try manually editting /etc/networ/interfaces to make it use the settings you want rather than an application | 07:32 |
| szrhawaii | let me see | 07:33 |
| potwak | is there a free training certification for ubuntu? | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip | szrhawaii: you could do it just to test, if you rename the file and reboot you can reset it up with apps, if you manually populate that file, no applications will be able to setup the networking on that pc | 07:34 |
| szrhawaii | ok | 07:34 |
| ActionParsnip | potwak: i dont know of any free certs personally, You could do your LPA which will transfer between all Linux systems | 07:35 |
| szrhawaii | hey do you recommend a better program than kwifi and knetwork | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip | szrhawaii: no idea man, i always use that file (im old school) | 07:35 |
| potwak | ActionParsnip: what is LPA? | 07:37 |
| szrhawaii | ok i have all the regular stuff how do i get the 802.11 stuff on there | 07:37 |
| szrhawaii | is there a plug in or something | 07:38 |
| ActionParsnip | potwak: sorry, its LPI | 07:38 |
| szrhawaii | or a lib file i can get | 07:38 |
| szrhawaii | !wireless | 07:39 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 07:39 |
| ActionParsnip | potwak: http://www.lpi.org/ | 07:39 |
| potwak | ActionParsnip: thanks. | 07:39 |
| potwak | :) | 07:39 |
| ActionParsnip | szrhawaii: yeah read that guide | 07:40 |
| szrhawaii | im looking at it right now | 07:40 |
| szrhawaii | thanks for your help though | 07:41 |
| potwak | ActionParsnip: UCP is very expensive, I can't afford to pay $250 for its certificate. :) | 07:41 |
| potwak | ActionParsnip: do you have an idea of how much is the payment on LPI? | 07:42 |
| szrhawaii | where do i go to find my source list again | 08:20 |
| POKE53281 | slight problem, I used to have two independent panels (one on each screen, dual view setup) - if I dragged a window from one screen to the other, it'd move from one panel to the other. I disabled a panel a while ago, now when I re-add it, no tasks appear! | 08:20 |
| POKE53281 | any ideas? | 08:20 |
| POKE53281 | I can add buttons and applets, but it doesnt function as a taskbar | 08:21 |
| POKE53281 | (adding an external taskbar works, but I cant add applets or buttons to it heh) | 08:21 |
| szrhawaii | where do i find my source list file at | 08:21 |
| szrhawaii | source.lst where is it at | 08:26 |
| POKE53281 | sources.list? | 08:27 |
| POKE53281 | /etc/apt/ | 08:27 |
| POKE53281 | sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:27 |
| POKE53281 | fixed the problem, had to add a taskbar applet to the additional panel :\ | 08:28 |
| POKE53281 | *doh* | 08:28 |
| szrhawaii | oh i already found it | 08:28 |
| szrhawaii | thatnks though | 08:28 |
| POKE53281 | sorry heh, had no idea what you meant by sources, thought maybe you meant linux headers/etc | 08:28 |
| POKE53281 | np | 08:28 |
| szrhawaii | nah i accidentally put a wrong file in the wrong place and my apt wasnt working | 08:29 |
| szrhawaii | but got it down | 08:29 |
| szrhawaii | hey do you know where this would go git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/compat-wireless-2.6.git | 08:29 |
| POKE53281 | absolutely no idea l\ | 08:30 |

| ActionParsnip1 | juanantonio: sudo apt-get install xscreensaver-gl xscreensaver-gl -extra | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip1 | juanantonio: one of those will moan, just remove the bad one from the command | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Andrew``: you sure can | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Andrew``: you'll need to sudo apt-get install build-essential | 10:55 |
| Andrew`` | ActionParsnip1, so that will install ALL of what I need? And, is this part of KDE 4 and NOT 3.5? | 10:55 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Andrew``: i'd suggest creating a deb from the compiled source too | 10:55 |

| ActionParsnip1 | juanantonio: then remove that one from the command | 10:59 |
| Bou | in current default Kubuntu version you can not | 10:59 |
| Bou | jm: only trunk version contains this feature | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Tm_T: do you know how to kick your own account off irc if you accidentally log on twice? | 10:59 |
| Andrew`` | ACt ok.. now that you have said that ...... creating deb... I dont know hwo to do that.. so it might be over my head | 11:01 |

| ActionParsnip1 | Andrew``: k3b can rip cds to mp3 though and konqueror has plugins for it | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Andrew``: you could even install grip | 11:01 |
| jm | Bou: thanks, how can i upgrade ? is it stable upgrade ? | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Andrew``: but you'd install a tonne of gnome rubbish too | 11:02 |
| Bou | jm: trunk = dev so it's unstable by definitition I guess | 11:02 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip1: if you are registered /msg nickserv ghost username password | 11:02 |

| hardyrr | hi | 11:31 |
| hardyrr | does anyone know a simple way in kubuntu intrepid to share files? even if it's just between other linux | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: samba | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: it also alows share to windows clients | 11:32 |
| Matrix22 | i dont lisent steam mms in amarok, only in totem | 11:32 |
| hardyrr | don't tell me to edit files and read the man... | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: sudo apt-get install samba | 11:32 |
| hardyrr | i did that, but kde3 had a gui that made it simple, can't find it in kde4 | 11:33 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: you can sare with right click if you want, or manually edit smb.conf | 11:33 |
| hardyrr | no gui comes up with the right click though | 11:33 |
| Matrix22 | working amarok with mms radios? | 11:33 |
| hardyrr | I click in the sharing tab, and configure share. nothing comes up | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: /etc/samba/smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/f3745188c | 11:34 |
| hardyrr | Matrix22: try installing kubuntu-restricted codecs | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: just scroll to the bottom and read | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: thats how simple it is | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: the name in the brackets is the share name, the rest is self explanatory | 11:35 |
| Matrix22 | apt-get install kubuntu-restricted codecs?? | 11:35 |
| hardyrr | something like that yes, let me see if I have the command here | 11:35 |
| hardyrr | ubuntu-restricted-extras | 11:36 |
| hardyrr | ActionParsnip: thanks for the help, i'll look into it then... | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: once you have a file nice an setup you will need to restart samba | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart | 11:37 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: to load the new file | 11:37 |
| hardyrr | but I kinda knew that already, I hate using the command line for things that should be quite simple using a GUI. now the other pcs need to do mount -t samba or something... | 11:37 |
| faileas | naw, KDE autodetects samba shares | 11:37 |
| hardyrr | or maybe not | 11:37 |
| faileas | its somewhere in network shares | 11:37 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: im a command line kid, what can i say. If yu can use cli more, you can administer your system via ssh remotely :) | 11:37 |
| sigma20 | where is the 4.1 rss plasmoid? | 11:38 |

| hardyrr | ActionParsnip: I understand the advantages of the cli, but sometimes it just takes more time typing that clicking | 11:38 |
| ActionParsnip | sometimes | 11:38 |
| amerigo | Ciao Action | 11:38 |
| hardyrr | like uploading files to a server through ssh | 11:39 |
| hardyrr | what do you think is easier? using ssh and typing each file you want to send, or go to dolphin using fish:// ? | 11:39 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip: well you can do x forwarding over ssh ;p | 11:39 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: too much bandwidth wasted for what can be as simple as adding a samba share | 11:39 |
| faileas | hardyrr: dolphin 's sidebar has a network shares option, which lets you access samba shares elswhere | 11:40 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip: ssh isn't just about cli | 11:40 |
| hardyrr | faileas: my problem is not accessing, i want to share :S | 11:40 |
| faileas | its a bit of a swiss army knife, IMO | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: i realise but if you can do something at cli it uses less bandwidth than gui | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: oh absolutely | 11:40 |
| faileas | he does have a point there | 11:41 |
| faileas | the rightclick configure shares thing dosen't work on a folder, and they dumped simple file server | 11:41 |
| hardyrr | i'm gonna go samba pro just to share a simple folder. | 11:42 |
| ActionParsnip | its hardly pro, a child can understand the file | 11:44 |
| hardyrr | oh rly | 11:44 |
| hardyrr | what's the difference between browseable and read-only? | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: read the one i sent you, isnt it hugely readable | 11:44 |
| winterelf | hi, just wanted to know what is the command i need if i wanna see what wireless driver i m using | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | browsable means you can go into subdirectorys | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | readable means you have only read access to files (no write) | 11:45 |
| hardyrr | ok, so far so good, but what is a guest? | 11:45 |
| hardyrr | a guy who isn't registered in the machine that is sharing? | 11:45 |
| hardyrr | so, if a guest can read, it's open to anyone in the network? | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: yeah pretty much | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: from what i understand | 11:46 |
| hardyrr | cool, gonna see what happens | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: i always log in with an account so its pretty defunct for me, its just a security thing really | 11:46 |
| hardyrr | ActionParsnip: another thing, what with the ';' in some lines? | 11:48 |
| hardyrr | aren't comments started with '#' ? | 11:48 |
| hardyrr | sorry for the barrage of questions, but you'll save me time lol | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: looks like a comment | 11:49 |
| hardyrr | ah, so two ways of making comments, that's so great and handy. oh the freedom of choice :) | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: as the other ones that are applied dont have it but you are right about # | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: the only bits you really need are your shares and the systems WORKGROUP name | 11:50 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: which can be set to match your own | 11:50 |
| hardyrr | yeah, but my smb.conf already had the homes share "set up" but with the ';' thingy | 11:51 |
| hardyrr | and sharing the home seems like an easy way to do what i want | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | then thats fine | 11:51 |
| gaelan | i've been trying to force pulseaudio to work with kubuntu 8.10 but i just read somewhere that it doesn't even need or use pulseaudio by default... i feel stupid, does it just use alsa? esound? | 11:54 |
| gaelan | i'm still trying to understand all this, if someone can direct me to a page that could explain it... | 11:54 |
| hardyrr | gaelan: i'm pretty sure it's just alsa | 11:54 |
| hardyrr | for example my virtualbox complains that pulseaudio doesn't respond | 11:54 |
| hardyrr | so I switched to alsa and doesn't complain anymore :/ , that's about what i know | 11:55 |
| gaelan | yeah, i'm getting an error that pulseaudio won't respond | 11:55 |
| gaelan | great, i'll try to clean all the junk off i've just installed | 11:55 |
| gaelan | thanks! | 11:55 |
| hardyrr | pulseaudio is the other thing I don't really understand the advantage over alsa for most users | 11:55 |
| hardyrr | maybe for devs it's easier | 11:55 |
| dustrial | IF i need pulse audio i use it like this "pulseaudio --high-priority=1 -D" and after i used it i KILL it, because it suxx hard! killall pulse[TAB] | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: me neither, alsa work beautifuly | 11:56 |
| gaelan | ohhh that's good to know, i've been fighting pulseaudio for days thinking i had to make it work | 11:56 |
| gaelan | whoops | 11:57 |
| dustrial | gaelan: for me i need pulse for skype to run | 11:57 |
| dustrial | and i can use my microphone in wine apps with it | 11:57 |
| basy | hi, i have nvidia but always after reboot kubuntu starts in 640x480 mode... then i have to run as root nvidia-settings and set 1920x1200... | 11:57 |
| dustrial | (skype doesnt use wine here) | 11:57 |
| ActionParsnip | basy: you could add the modeline in xorg.conf | 11:58 |
| gaelan | dustrial: i'll keep that in mind since i will need skype, for now i just want the general sound to work | 11:58 |
| basy | when i edit manualy xorg.conf it will be always replaced during reboot | 11:59 |
| ActionParsnip | basy: are you editing it with kdesudo / sudo ? | 11:59 |
| dustrial | =) yes yes good luck =) | 11:59 |
| basy | jes | 11:59 |
| ActionParsnip | basy: if you run nvidia settings after you edit xorg.conf it will nullify settings in xorg.conf you manually typed | 12:00 |
| basy | i delete as root xorg.conf and copy there my version | 12:00 |
| basy | but during reboot it is replaced | 12:00 |
| dustrial | basy there are many issues regarding the nvidea-settings ... i think googleing reveals most of the best results! | 12:00 |
| basy | and after reboot there is always default xorg.conf fine :( | 12:01 |
| ActionParsnip | basy: can you use nvidia-settings at command line and make a small script to set the resolution? | 12:01 |
| basy | file | 12:01 |
| basy | ActionParsnip: is tehere aby tutoroal for that? | 12:02 |
| ActionParsnip | basy: man nvidia-settings | 12:02 |
| ActionParsnip | basy: im unsure if it can be used that way | 12:02 |
| val_ | helpp fatal error with my adept manager? | 12:04 |

| hardyrr | it also happened to me, when the lock was on, adept asked to try and solved, it tried and then crashed instantly | 12:07 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: its a malformed line in /etc/apt/sources.list | 12:08 |
| hardyrr | fatal error over a malformed line is not the best kind of programming, maybe a warning... | 12:08 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about paste . val_ | 12:10 |
| ActionParsnip | !paste | val_ | 12:10 |
| ubottu | val_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 12:10 |
| hardyrr | ActionParsnip: i'm having problems with samba, I set the shares very similar to the pastebin you gave me, but the other pc (virtual machine) can access and browse, read and stuff, but can't write to the folder | 12:10 |
| hardyrr | even though writable = yes | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: did you run smbpasswd <user name> | 12:12 |
| hardyrr | nah, the virtual machine used konqueror 3 and I just did smb://ip | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: you'll need sudo for that | 12:12 |
| hardyrr | it worked in windows :/ | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: you do it on the samba server | 12:12 |
| hardyrr | oh | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: sudo smbpasswd <some user name> | 12:13 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: make sure that password is in the valid users section of the share | 12:13 |
| hardyrr | but i want to make that accessible to anyone.. | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: you will be challenged for a password when you connect which you can store on the clients you wis to have access | 12:14 |
| hardyrr | i'll look to the secutiry later | 12:14 |
| hardyrr | *security | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: ive not dont it with free access like that, too flakey for my taste. have an ask round or websearch | 12:14 |
| hardyrr | still says access denied... | 12:15 |
| hardyrr | but just when i want to write something | 12:15 |
| hardyrr | i did the valid users thingy, and the password too, i was asked for it on the other end | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | maybe theres a line further up that grants guest write access | 12:16 |
| ActionParsnip | if you were asked for a password then you are connected to samba as that user which will then have the access you granted. Did you use the same username as the one you log onto ubuntu with? | 12:17 |
| hardyrr | i created the same username i'm using in the server | 12:17 |
| hardyrr | with the smbpasswd | 12:17 |
| hardyrr | see how this is not simple? | 12:18 |
| hardyrr | :( | 12:18 |
| ActionParsnip | and the same password too? | 12:19 |
| hardyrr | no, i used a different one for samba | 12:19 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: try re-passwding and make it the same, just to test | 12:20 |
| hardyrr | ok | 12:20 |
| hardyrr | it's working | 12:22 |
| ActionParsnip | cool, maybe you need the same auth of user / pass to get write privs | 12:22 |
| hardyrr | also, this is patheticly slow | 12:23 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: oh theres a thing for that, gimme a sec | 12:23 |
| doc___ | hi there | 12:24 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: find something similar or add the line: name resolve order = wins lmhosts hosts | 12:24 |

| bibstha | anyone got mediadevices support in amarok2? | 12:26 |
| hardyrr | ActionParsnip: trying that now... | 12:27 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: you need to restart the samba service each time you edit the file | 12:27 |
| hardyrr | i do | 12:28 |
| bibstha | amarok2 and mediadevices anyone? | 12:28 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: just a friendly remonder :D | 12:28 |
| hardyrr | bibstha: when they released amarok, they said that some devices wouldn't be supported | 12:28 |
| hardyrr | don't know if any is... | 12:29 |
| bibstha | hardyrr: well the mediadevices tab is completely missing | 12:29 |
| hardyrr | maybe it will only show up with the right libraries installed, like libpod or something | 12:29 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: any faster? | 12:29 |
| bibstha | hardyrr: humm weird | 12:30 |
| hardyrr | ActionParsnip: a little faster yeah | 12:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sweet | 12:30 |
| hardyrr | but it copies 10 files per seconds, each one a few KB | 12:30 |
| hardyrr | more than 30 secs to copy 400 files totalling 2 MB :S | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: mine copys fine, see what i have in mine that you don't | 12:31 |

| hardyrr | i used yakuake too, but that's not a filemanager lol | 12:37 |
| hardyrr | it's just a console in the end | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: i move, reaname and open my files with it | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: so in effect i am managing my files ;) | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | hardyrr: but it is just a front for konsole | 12:39 |

| hardyrr | Bou, it's definitely a region, not the country | 12:53 |

| keres_ | is it possible to disable error messages all together in an application? | 13:03 |
| keres_ | i have an application that runs perfect on ibex, though it was meant for hardy and gutsy. it displays ~10 error dialogs on startup | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis64 | you got the source? | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis64 | keres_, given the varity of ways somtning can be doing error messages - i doubt if its possible | 13:07 |
| keres_ | Um, yes. but the whole point it am running the .deb is so i do not have to compile it | 13:07 |
| keres_ | :S | 13:08 |
| JvM_Gelon | Hello | 13:08 |
| keres_ | Dr_Willis64: should i just ignore them? | 13:08 |
| JvM_Gelon | I was wondering if there is a possibility to add an SFTP to the remote locations in Kubuntu Hardy | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis64 | keres_, got any other options? :) ya cant disable them im guessing.. so you have to ignore them? | 13:08 |
| keres_ | I'm gussing thats the only option. | 13:09 |
| keres_ | :S | 13:09 |
| keres_ | until i learn how to compile it for ibex, or i find a .deb for it | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | keres_: you could addresss the messages | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis64 | i would have to wonder what the specific error messages are also. | 13:10 |
| keres_ | ActionParship: they are gtk+ error messages, for a UFOAI plugin/gamepack that nobody ever uses. | 13:10 |
| keres_ | the program runs just fine otherwise | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | keres_: i'd log a bug | 13:13 |
| keres_ | ActionParship: would that disable them? | 13:13 |
| keres_ | from re-occurancE? | 13:14 |
| ActionParsnip | keres_: if it can be replicated, the devs may release a patch or sugest a work around | 13:14 |
| keres_ | ActionParship: the dev's have since released 1.6, which i think is ibex compatable. but it is mildly different than 1.5 | 13:15 |
| keres_ | and you have to compile it yourself | 13:15 |
| JvM_Gelon | Is there a way to add a SFTP folder to my remote places? | 13:15 |
| ActionParsnip | could try removing it completely including --purge and reinstal fresh | 13:15 |
| ActionParsnip | JvM_Gelon: you might be able to add it if you type the protocol name at the start of its address | 13:19 |

| X4D | Hi, I've been using Ubuntu for quite some time now, nearly 2 years and after trying out various KDE distributions I feel that KDE has an advantage over Gnome with it's applications Kontact, Amarok, etc... and the way they integrate. I just installed Opensuse 11.1 RC1 yesterday and I don't feel comfortable in a rpm based distro. Is Kubuntu stable for daily use? I don't mind troubleshooting at the beginning to set things up. | 13:51 |
| sd2 | just a question about kubuntu : I use it from the beginning (befor was with debian+kde). Can anyone telle me why 8.10 included kde 4.1. why no waiting for 4.2. As a (only) user it looks very bugfull | 13:53 |
| Bou | maybe because you need feedback from user to track bugs | 13:54 |
| Bou | and people almost never download beta versions just for testing.. | 13:54 |
| Bou | I guess that's one reason | 13:55 |
| Bou | probably not the only one | 13:55 |
| RurouniJones | Is there a lightweight version of ubuntu suitable for old machines that is also translated into Japanese? | 13:57 |
| bdizzle | xubuntu with a jap language pack? | 14:00 |
| bdizzle | X4D, I don't consider myself a power user by any means, other than running simulations for my research, but I've used Kubuntu for about 8 months now with no serious issues | 14:01 |
| bdizzle | the first two weeks are rough, but other than that, its solid | 14:01 |
| DawnLight | hello... where can i see information about the updates for stable? would an rss feed be asking too much? | 14:01 |
| RurouniJones | bdizzle: Yea sorry about that, had a brain fart | 14:02 |
| RurouniJones | Anyway I can get the language packs offline? I will probably be installing it on a machine with no net access in the beginning. | 14:02 |
| gustavonarea | Hello. Are you sure KDE 4.2 Beta 1 really is available in the repo you point out? Please take a look at this: http://paste.chrisarndt.de/paste/8510ee1e128e45d69a5aac738644e9b8 | 14:03 |
| gustavonarea | I'm using Intrepid | 14:03 |
| X4D | bdizzle: Well I'll give it a go, can't hurt to try :) | 14:04 |
| bdizzle | X4D: word of advice. Create the root partition of about 10 GB and the rest you are planning to use as Home | 14:06 |
| bdizzle | helps out a lot | 14:06 |
| gustavonarea | Oh, and "Recommended Updates" is enabled | 14:07 |
| X4D | bdizzle: thanks | 14:07 |
| bdizzle | anyway, I'm in the process of copying over two partitions of my laptop hard drive onto my desktop, so naturally linux is running a bit slow right now (Windows would have died by now) | 14:08 |
| bdizzle | so I need to log off and allocate resources towards that | 14:08 |
| bdizzle | later all | 14:08 |

| eagles0513875 | what package do i need to have installed to be able to update sources from adept | 14:54 |
| LjL | eagles0513875: none...? | 14:56 |
| LjL | aside from adept | 14:56 |
| eagles0513875 | LjL adept is telling me i cannot edit the sources form there | 14:56 |
| eagles0513875 | it says the editor for package sources is not yet implemented | 14:57 |
| LjL | eagles0513875: so *edit* the sources, not *update* the sources. those are two different things. do you mean by doing Adept / Manage Repositories? | 15:00 |
| Leeuw | I changed some in fstab with the mount-manager, now my system won't start because it can't find the (separate) /var partition etc. Am working from my emergency-Debian on differrent partition. What can I do to solve the problem ? | 15:01 |
| LjL | Leeuw: reboot, go to the GRUB menu, pass "init=/bin/sh" to your kernel command line, boot, revert changes to fstab | 15:02 |
| Leeuw | LjL I'm not sure about the changes; would there be a backup of the old file ? | 15:03 |
| LjL | Leeuw: never used mount-manager, i don't know | 15:03 |
| Leeuw | LjL, ok, I'll have a look then and see what i'll find... How can I list the files in a folder (by the way, fstab is in /boot, right ?) with the dates ? | 15:05 |
| LjL | Leeuw: no, fstab is in /etc/fstab. "ls -l --sort=time" | 15:05 |
| Leeuw | LjL, of course, /etc, I knew that (all shook up by the bug...)... Thanx ! | 15:06 |
| yusuf_ | how do i remove the grey background from the check Boxes in firefox | 15:06 |
| Leeuw | LjL the sort is a great idea, thanx nr 2 | 15:06 |

| Captain_Haddock | wasn't there supposed to be a point release with a lot of goodies backported in early december? | 15:23 |
| saurjk | hasnt amarok 2.0 been released in the repos?? | 15:23 |
| * Captain_Haddock doesn't see it | 15:25 | |
| saurjk | okie kool | 15:26 |
| [Vex] | gaaaaaa | 15:32 |
| [Vex] | upgraded to 8.10 yesterday | 15:33 |
| [Vex] | fixed sound | 15:33 |
| faileas | yay? | 15:33 |
| [Vex] | master channel set tp PCM | 15:33 |
| [Vex] | when front is muted (for docking) the volume OSD is always 0% | 15:33 |
| [Vex] | follows front, not master channel | 15:34 |
| [Vex] | a fix? workaraound? | 15:34 |
| * [Vex] fix speling | 15:34 | |
| gaelan | ok, i've just messed up... when i log in using KDE4 it loads everything, but KDE itself is just white, all my autostart programs load because i can see skype | 15:38 |
| gaelan | but the interface itself is just... white | 15:38 |
| [Vex] | gaelan: newly upgrade or? | 15:38 |
| gaelan | is there a kde config file somewhere i can check from the terminal? or just delete something and let it regenerate? | 15:38 |
| gaelan | yes | 15:38 |
| [Vex] | a lot of X is left upto HAL now | 15:38 |
| gaelan | yes, i installed a long list of packages | 15:38 |
| [Vex] | but I'm sry to say I'm not familiar with it | 15:39 |
| gaelan | ok, thanks anyway, i'll do some more searching | 15:39 |
| [Vex] | wanted to turn off synaptic, but don't know how anymore... | 15:39 |
| jedix | gaelan: nightly, or beta? | 15:40 |
| gaelan | i'm just using the standard intrepid | 15:41 |
| gaelan | what i did was generate a list of packages from one install and try to use that for a second computer | 15:41 |
| gaelan | thought it would speed things up on configuration, guess not! | 15:42 |
| Captain_Haddock | gaelan: you can try renaming .kde in your home directory to .kde-old and restart X. | 15:42 |
| Captain_Haddock | that should regenerate all config files | 15:42 |
| pronoy | When i restart my computer, all my widgets go back to the default positon: up left corner, even though i locked the widgets before shutting down my pc.....how can i fix this ? | 15:42 |
| gaelan | thanks, when i try to rename it comes up with a syntax error, doesn't like the dot | 15:43 |
| Captain_Haddock | try doing it from the command line perhaps ... | 15:44 |
| gaelan | that's where i was trying from; just "rename .kde .kdeold" | 15:45 |
| [Vex] | mv | 15:45 |
| Captain_Haddock | use mv, not rename | 15:45 |
| gaelan | ahh, thanks | 15:45 |
| gaelan | i'm quite new to all this | 15:46 |
| Captain_Haddock | :) | 15:46 |
| pronoy | when i restart my pc..all my widgets come to the upper left corner, their default postion i guess....how can i keep them from going back ? | 15:46 |
| gaelan | wonderful! it's working again | 15:47 |
| gaelan | thanks so much! | 15:47 |
| Captain_Haddock | yw :) | 15:47 |
| jussi01 | pronoy: it happens a few times then goes away in my experience, so just fix thhem and wait until it stops | 15:48 |
| Captain_Haddock | pronoy: no idea.. perhaps try logging out and logging back in rather than shutting down | 15:48 |
| pronoy | Captian_Haddock, jussi01 how to fix them....? and my computer can't keep running all the time.....i have to shut down some time you know | 15:49 |
| jussi01 | pronoy: just reposition them as you would normally | 15:49 |
| jussi01 | and after a few restarts it wont do it anymore.. | 15:49 |
| pronoy | jussi01: i have like 10 widgets up there.......i'll have to do them all over again every time i login....this is not an option ! | 15:51 |
| KomiaPoika | when installing kubuntu, how do i make grub install on the ide hard disk, instead of the sata hard disk where it's installed? | 15:52 |
| jussi01 | pronoy: as I said, it shouldnt last long, just a few times, then the problem goes away!!! | 15:53 |
| pronoy | jussi01: i'll give it a shot..... | 15:54 |

| SiVA_ | does anyone else find GTK apps really sluggish with kde4.1? | 17:01 |
| eagles0513875 | SiVA_ i just chunk the default install of kde 4.1 that comes with kubuntu and do a custom one of my own which is plenty lighter | 17:02 |
| SiVA_ | eagles0513875: Could you elaborate? | 17:03 |
| eagles0513875 | SiVA_ i run a sudo apt-get purge kde* which strips the install back down to command line only. then i do sudo apt-get install kde-core and u come out wiht kde 4.1 but wiht no progrmas no kmix no knetworkmanager etc you install what you want | 17:04 |
| SiVA_ | eagles0513875: Sounds interesting. But I don't care about disk space being used by extra programs.... or are there certain programs that are installed by default that reside in the memory at all time? Eating up CPU? | 17:06 |

| cuznt | is it better than apt-get? | 17:14 |
| eagles0513875 | cuznt it optimizes and compiles the programs from source for your hardware | 17:15 |
| SiVA_ | will this remove office: apt-get purge openoffice* ? | 17:15 |
| eagles0513875 | yes | 17:15 |
| KomiaPoika | how can i chose on which hard drive to install grub when installing kubuntu? | 17:17 |
| SiVA_ | it wants to know what my cpu architecture is | 17:17 |
| eagles0513875 | what processor u got in ur laptop | 17:17 |
| eagles0513875 | it has to be specified so it knows how to optimize it | 17:17 |
| eagles0513875 | SiVA_ im gonna pm ya | 17:18 |
| SiVA_ | hey I got it | 17:18 |
| eagles0513875 | KomiaPoika it has to be the vry first partition or the MBR | 17:18 |
| SiVA_ | Core duo.. so I guess it's core2! :) | 17:18 |
| eagles0513875 | guess so 2 im doing this on 3 yr old amd athlon64 and im telling u it helps | 17:18 |
| eagles0513875 | i have core2 quad and i would love to try it out on here | 17:18 |
| KomiaPoika | eagles0513875: kubuntu installs on a sata drive but the pc only sees the ide drive at boot time | 17:19 |
| KomiaPoika | eagles0513875: so i want to force install grub on the ide drive | 17:19 |
| SiVA_ | "sudo apt-build install openoffice" doesn't find openoffice | 17:20 |
| eagles0513875 | SiVA_ not everythign will work wiht apt-build | 17:20 |
| cuznt | can you move your grub? | 17:20 |
| eagles0513875 | SiVA_ try koffice instead and it will work apt-build | 17:20 |
| eagles0513875 | grub needs to be in first primary partition on the mbr | 17:20 |
| KomiaPoika | SiVA_: sudo apt-build install openoffice.org | 17:21 |
| cuznt | right now for me it is on the other harddrive and i want to move it | 17:21 |
| eagles0513875 | SiVA_ fyi if u set apt-build to strong it will take some time to compile cuz its doing the most optimization for your system | 17:22 |

| user17 | tyfon: i suppose you think it may works | 19:16 |

| user17 | tyfon: | 19:17 |
| user17 | may be? | 19:17 |
| tyfon | it wont format anything by itself | 19:17 |

| user17 | so if I clear the pen may be no problem... | 19:18 |
| tyfon | it shouldnt matter | 19:18 |

| ytoox | but that channel is too crowded | 22:49 |
| dr_willis | ytoox, you may want to check the forums for your exact wireless card/chipse4t - see if any others report similer issues. | 22:49 |
| fabio_ | can't get strigi working (Failed to contact strigi) | 22:49 |
| ytoox | ok | 22:49 |
| fabio_ | someone can help me? | 22:50 |
| emma | hey guys i need a little help | 22:50 |
| emma | after doing the updates and a restart, now kde does not begin when i start my computer. | 22:51 |
| emma | it just hangs, the screen stays black for a long time, until finally it gives up and boots me to the command line. | 22:51 |
| fabio_ | xserver error, emma? | 22:51 |
| emma | i don't know, there was no problem until after i did the updates and a restart. | 22:51 |
| emma | i did nothing to the system myself. | 22:52 |
| fabio_ | tried with the command startx? | 22:52 |
| emma | no i didn't try that. i think it's not x that needs to start but kdm. | 22:52 |
| ytoox | I think i have an atheros card | 22:52 |
| fabio_ | try startx... it should spit out some hints... | 22:53 |
| fabio_ | me to ytoox...it runs very slow | 22:53 |
| ytoox | mmmm | 22:54 |
| ytoox | it sucks | 22:54 |
| ytoox | do atheros card run on madwifi? | 22:54 |
| fabio_ | I jave proprietary drivers installd with jokey? | 22:54 |
| ytoox | link? | 22:54 |
| fabio_ | try with jockey program. | 22:55 |
| dwidmann | emma: kdm requires an x server to be running ... so if X can't be started with startx then kdm can't be started either | 22:55 |
| fabio_ | someone can help me with strigi&nepomuk | 22:55 |
| fabio_ | pls | 22:55 |
| emma | Any ideas? | 22:56 |
| emma | dwidmann: i'll see if it does that. | 22:56 |
| ytoox | fabio_: is there a repository for ubuntu with these propietary drivers? | 22:57 |
| emma | dwidmann: i did startx and it seems to be starting kde. | 22:57 |
| fabio_ | ok emma..let us know | 22:57 |
| dwidmann | emma: hah, that's interesting | 22:57 |
| fabio_ | oh...ytoox...i just launched jockey from a console | 22:58 |
| === master_ is now known as Milkman | ||
| ytoox | ok | 22:58 |
| === Milkman is now known as Solifugus | ||
| ytoox | oohh, i tried it but no devices show up | 22:58 |
| emma | dwidmann: except no kdm because i'm already logged on. also doing it like this, it means that i (em) started x and not root. i think there could be probs with that. | 22:58 |
| ytoox | it says, no propietary devices on this system | 22:59 |
| fabio_ | are you on kde, ytoox? | 22:59 |
| ytoox | nop | 23:00 |
| fabio_ | i have restricted repository enabled | 23:00 |
| emma | dwidmann: for example now i have no audio. | 23:00 |
| dwidmann | emma: that's likely a separate problem | 23:00 |
| emma | dwidmann: should i do sudo startx ? | 23:00 |
| ytoox | I did jockey-gtk and on the interface there are no devices present | 23:00 |
| ytoox | ok | 23:00 |
| emma | i think it's because the audio does not know i'm part of the group to get audio. | 23:01 |
| emma | it's not a separate problem because i've always had audio. | 23:01 |
| dwidmann | emma: you almost never want to start x as root anyway .... | 23:01 |
| ytoox | fabio_: me too | 23:01 |
| dwidmann | emma: type "groups" in a shell to find out if you're part of the audio group | 23:01 |
| fabio_ | just a moment,ytoox | 23:02 |
| ytoox | ok | 23:02 |
| emma | dwidmann: it says: em adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare | 23:02 |
| derjens | olegb, still there? | 23:03 |
| emma | you should not have to type startx after logging into commandline login on kubuntu. | 23:03 |
| derjens | for last mins i have been trying out tor | 23:03 |
| emma | i should not be logging in on command line in kubuntu. that's the whole problem. | 23:03 |
| derjens | why does google.com present german google site even if i set tor to "spoof us browser"?? | 23:03 |
| dwidmann | emma: no audio? You'll have to fix that then if you want sound | 23:03 |
| emma | no this makes no sense. | 23:04 |
| emma | i have always had sound. | 23:04 |
| fabio_ | ytoox | 23:04 |
| emma | this is what's happened: i did the updates and i restarted. after doing that, kdm is not starting and i'm not getting any kde. after a long blank scren it takes me to command line login. | 23:04 |
| fabio_ | try this: | 23:04 |
| dwidmann | emma: erm, try putting yourself in the audio group anyway | 23:04 |
| emma | how? | 23:04 |
| fabio_ | sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid-generic | 23:04 |
| LjL | sudo adduser username group | 23:04 |
| emma | it said that was succesful but i really feel this is ignoring the real problem some how. | 23:05 |
| emma | isn't the real problem that kdm and kde aren't starting like they always have before? | 23:05 |
| dwidmann | emma: with regards to sound issue, that may help, with regards to the other issue(s), they're separate problems | 23:06 |
| emma | i feel this is a problem with kubuntu not me since i did nothing but do the updates and restart. | 23:06 |
| fabio_ | ytoox...something installing? | 23:06 |
| fabio_ | Ok..right to the originary question...something can help me get strigi working with nepomuk? | 23:07 |
| dwidmann | emma: possibly doing the upgrades caused some sort of trouble. | 23:07 |
| emma | it seems like that must be. it's the only variable that changed. | 23:08 |
| dwidmann | emma: come to think of it try running "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and see if anything big happens | 23:08 |
| ytoox | hold on | 23:08 |
| emma | okay. | 23:08 |
| fabio_ | before that try sudo apt-get chech, emma! | 23:08 |
| fabio_ | check sorry | 23:08 |
| fabio_ | maybe briken dependencies :-/ | 23:08 |
| fabio_ | broken...today I suffer dislexia | 23:09 |
| ytoox | fabio_: done! | 23:10 |
| fabio_ | ok...seems like i have to go to sleep...no help today! | 23:10 |
| fabio_ | heve you reboot system ytoox' | 23:10 |
| ytoox | ok | 23:10 |
| ytoox | any other steps after that? | 23:10 |
| fabio_ | reboot | 23:10 |
| ytoox | all right | 23:11 |
| ytoox | thank you! | 23:11 |
| ytoox | gotta run | 23:11 |
| fabio_ | and let us see today here...same hour same channel! :-) | 23:11 |
| fabio_ | bye all, good night! | 23:11 |
| === Mez_ is now known as Mez | ||
| emma | dwidmann: i did that and did a reboot and it's the same thing. | 23:14 |
| emma | after being taken to the commandline login i did a startx | 23:15 |
| dwidmann | hmmm | 23:15 |
| emma | with a startx kde begins, but not the kde login. | 23:15 |
| emma | it does seem i have audio now, though, doing it that way. | 23:15 |
| dwidmann | emma: perhaps the sound will work in the command line but not in kde ... I had a similar problem on my parents computer not so long ago | 23:15 |
| emma | but this does not seem to be the way that you are supposed to start kubuntu. | 23:15 |
| emma | the sound is not the issue. the sound always worked when kdm/kde would start automatically upon starting kubuntu. | 23:16 |
| emma | now those are not starting and i have to do startx from the commandline after being taken to commandline login | 23:16 |
| === glade88 is now known as glade88|ZzZ | ||
| emma | well im not sure what hte problem is. | 23:22 |
| emma | is kubuntu failing to start with the correct runlevel? | 23:22 |
| emma | kubuntu is supposed to start with a kdm login screen. it's not supposed to take me to command line where i start x manually. | 23:22 |
| tyfon | make sure /etc/rc2.d/S30kdm is in place | 23:25 |
| devin | hey all i added deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main to my repositories list but it won't fetch it. Any ideas why? | 23:25 |
| tyfon | also check that you are in runlevel 2 (by issuing the runlevel command) | 23:25 |
| emma | well when i do that from konsole it says it's runlevel 2. | 23:27 |
| tyfon | emma: is the file in place? | 23:27 |
| emma | tyfon: i don't know what that means is it in place. | 23:27 |
| tyfon | ls -l /etc/rc2.d/S30kdm | 23:27 |
| tyfon | see if it's there, and if so if it points to ../init.d/kdm | 23:27 |
| emma | doing sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart seems to 'fix' the problem also. but not fix it since it will just do the same thing next time. | 23:27 |
| emma | tyfon i get this... | 23:29 |
| emma | ls: cannot access /etc/rc2.d/S30kdm: No such file or directory | 23:29 |
| emma | no that doesn't make sense. scratch that. | 23:30 |
| emma | i was using /exec -o but i forgot im sshing into a different comp. | 23:30 |
| emma | the file is there and it's pointing to /init.d/kdm | 23:30 |
| tyfon | ok | 23:30 |
| tyfon | oh | 23:30 |
| tyfon | thats strange indeed | 23:30 |
| tyfon | since it starts when you /etc/init.d/kdm restart.. btw, .. does it work with /etc/init.d/kdm start? | 23:31 |
| emma | i don't know. should i reboot and try that also? | 23:31 |
| tyfon | yes, if it tells you kdm is already running, try ALT+F7 | 23:31 |
| emma | right now in tty 7 i have kde going. | 23:32 |
| emma | kde is currently going in tty7 | 23:32 |
| tyfon | might be that its not switching to tty 7 automatically | 23:32 |
| tyfon | yes | 23:32 |
| emma | well i'll totally restart and then try /etc/init.d/kdm start to see what happens. | 23:32 |
| tyfon | kk | 23:32 |
| aboSamoor | amarok is not working with my thinkpad r61 multimedia keys how can I fix this ? | 23:34 |
| aboSamoor | I am using Amarok 2.0 | 23:35 |
| devin | hey abo I'm trying to install amarok 2.0, my repo isn't fetching it. How did you go about getting it? | 23:35 |
| aboSamoor | devin: I have 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main' in my /etc/apt/sources.list | 23:37 |
| emma | tyfon: okay this really makes no sense. This time when I rebooted, having done nothing in particular that was permenant, it works normal. | 23:37 |
| devin | aboSamoor: i think that's what i have, lemme check | 23:37 |
| aboSamoor | and the proposed and backports updates are enabled also | 23:37 |
| emma | I seriously wish that computers would follow the laws of physics. | 23:37 |
| devin | hmm, have all that and yet it still has amarok as 1.4 | 23:38 |
| aboSamoor | devin: even in hardy it was 1.6 | 23:40 |
| aboSamoor | devin: for sure you have proposed and backports repos enabled ? did you make apt-get update ? | 23:41 |
| devin | that's strange. Arg, why doesn't adept fetch as advertised | 23:41 |
| devin | let me try that | 23:41 |
| tyfon | emma: lol | 23:41 |
| tyfon | emma: i had that same issue once.. but only once | 23:41 |
| emma | Sure doesn't make sense. | 23:41 |
| tyfon | and when it happened it was that X fired up, but didnt switch to the VT | 23:42 |
| emma | I'm glad it decided to spontaneously heal itself. | 23:42 |
| tyfon | :) | 23:42 |
| devin | i guess yet one more package i'm going to need to install from source | 23:42 |
| devin | must run off to work, thanks aboSamoor! | 23:42 |
| Neremor | hello! | 23:44 |
| Neremor | I'Ve a problem | 23:44 |
| Neremor | i try to set up compiz with emerald | 23:44 |
| Neremor | because i like compiz and i found a very nice emerald theme | 23:44 |
| Neremor | compiz works very nice for me | 23:44 |
| Neremor | but i don't have any window decorations. | 23:45 |
| aboSamoor | any idea how to make my multimedia keys work with amarok ? | 23:45 |
| Neremor | i think kwin isn't running and i also think that emerald is running | 23:45 |
| Neremor | but just don't displays any decorations | 23:45 |
| Neremor | any ideas what i'm doing wrong? | 23:45 |

| keres_ | what does "mv: cannot move `maps' to `/home/keres/.quake2world/default/maps': Directory not empty" mean? | 23:53 |
| tyfon | try to mv maps/* /home/keres/.quake2world/default/maps | 23:55 |
| tyfon | since it already has a maps directory it doesnt want to overwrite it | 23:55 |
| bdizzle | hi | 23:56 |

| afeijo | I lost my login screen, now it just wait for a login in like a black shell screen! how to restore it ? | 23:58 |
| tyfon | bdizzle: in the k-meny, right click on the tab with the recent files | 23:59 |
| tyfon | and select "clear recent file list" | 23:59 |
