[00:17] <linuxman410> kubuntu
[00:24] <phoenixz> Does Ubuntu already have multi touch screens? I saw many prototypes for this feature but I never head anything about this being included in some distro already..
[00:25] <popey> is it possible in KDE 4.2 to set power management to userspace governer only? I dont want kde power management to muck about with my cpu speed

[00:54] <Werenerd> Is anyone here familiar with linksys easyadvisor on Windows?
[00:55] <Werenerd> The only thing I am wanting is a graphical representation of computers logged into a home network
[00:55] <Werenerd> My Dad says he can't live without it.
[01:02] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: What kind of "home network" are we talking about here? TCP/IP or SMB?
[01:03] <Werenerd> tcp
[01:03] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: So what you want is a list of computers your DHCP server have given leases to then?
[01:03] <Werenerd> yup, thats right
[01:03] <BlueEagle> ...and turn that into something with pretty images.
[01:03] <Werenerd> exactly
[01:04] <Werenerd> I don't need it, my dad is used to the linksys easyadvisor and I am trying to convert him
[01:05] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Well I do not know if there are any pre-mades that makes pretty graphics from the leases file, but it's just a matter of reading the leases file and print a pretty picture for every lease with the IP below it.
[01:06] <Werenerd> http://common.ziffdavisinternet.com/util_get_image/17/0,1425,sz=1&i=177590,00.jpg
[01:06] <Werenerd> that is what he is used to
[01:07] <Werenerd> I think it is a neat novelty, but no more useful than the lease file
[01:08] <Unksi> how do you change locales on intrepid? sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales doesnt give out any options for switching anymore, just checks if locales are up to date or not
[01:08] <BlueEagle> Well it's the leases file combined with some topology awareness, but it's mostly eye candy.
[01:09] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Also, you should advise him that the easyadvisor does not show machines that are connected trough the gateway using a static IP address that has not been assigned by the DHCP server. Nor will the leases file.
[01:09] <Werenerd> Really? I did not know that
[01:10] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Well what you could do was look at the arp tables I guess.
[01:10] <Werenerd> BlueEagle: Is there an app that I... arp tables?
[01:11] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: on the command prompt type: arp
[01:11] <afeijo> I installed vmware, but when I click on its icon, it dont open.  Whats wrong?
[01:12] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: That will list all active connections I guess.
[01:12] <BlueEagle> afeijo: Try starting wmware in a terminal and see if you get any useful error message.
[01:12] <afeijo> some errors about GCC_3.4 and similars
[01:13] <afeijo> a few libs
[01:13] <Werenerd> BlueEagle: all that came back on for me was the router address
[01:13] <BlueEagle> afeijo: That's not nearly accurate enough for anyone to be able to debug it.
[01:13] <afeijo> oh
[01:13] <wallabee> i need some help.. everytime i use java oriented page my firefox browser just vanishes anyone know about this or how to fix?
[01:13] <afeijo>  /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)
[01:14] <wallabee> i installed the plugins through firefox
[01:14] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Are any other machines than the router connected to the machine you executed arp on?
[01:15] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Because on my server it shows both my workstation and my router.
[01:16] <Werenerd> BlueEagle: I am on my laptop (wireless) there is my ps3 (wireless) Wii (wireless) and desktop (wired)
[01:16] <Werenerd> Should I have run that from the desktop?
[01:16] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: and are they connected to the router or to your laptop?
[01:17] <faileas> afeijo: there's a vmware specific channel which may be of help. also vmware what?
[01:17] <afeijo> vmware server 1.0.8
[01:17] <afeijo> I found something on google, I'm trying it now
[01:18] <faileas> afeijo: hmm, i'm on 2.0. its a lot nicer ;p
[01:18] <Werenerd> Everything is given network access via the router
[01:18] <afeijo> it worked :)
[01:18] <faileas> they dumped the console for a firefox plugin
[01:18] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Then you need to check the routers arp tables.
[01:18] <afeijo> well, I will try the new version, but now I just need to open a vm
[01:18] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Because all your laptop ever needs to know about is the devices it is connected to itself.
[01:18] <wallabee> if i disable the GCJ web browser plugin 0.96.1 i can view the webpage without it killing itself but then no java of course
[01:19] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Have you tried running the easyadvisor in wine or mono?
[01:20] <Werenerd> nope. I try not to use windows apps at all personally. I could try it, but I would rahter not
[01:21] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Well if a windows app does a particular job and there are no replacements availible in Linux and this is an app that is critical for the migration of a user then I see no problem in running said app trough a compatibility layer or even emulator.
[01:22] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: Easyadvisor is a highly specialized propriatory (or how that is spelt) piece of software and odds are that it uses some custom format when communicating with the router so making a generic replacement is difficult.
[01:23] <Werenerd> I agree if there is nothinng comparable. But there has to be something out there! I use one or two window apps myself. But they were purposefully developed with wine in mind. so I don't feel so dirty!
[01:23] <Werenerd> you are probably right, i had not thought about the proprietary nature of the router
[01:24] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: No, there doesn't have to be something out there. Simply because this is an application that works only with routers of one make, and I would assume that it only works with a limited number of models and above that, it's mostly useless.
[01:24] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: The big "Linksys" logo should have been a clue. ;)
[01:25] <Werenerd> lol, yeah i know
[01:25] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: You could write Linksys and ask them to make a KDE-version of that tool tho. :)
[01:26] <Werenerd> wouldn't that be a hoot if they actually replied or even listened? Be a first.
[01:28] <Werenerd> BlueEagle: thanks for the help
[01:29] <BlueEagle> Werenerd: I really didn't help much I guess. ;) I should probably be thanking you for listning to my views. hehe. But you are most welcome.

[01:36] <keres_> how do you transfer files between a kubuntu machine and a vmware box?
[01:37] <faileas> keres_: same way you would transfer files between a kubuntu machine and another physical box
[01:37] <faileas> samba/nfs/usb/cd etc
[01:38] <keres_> samba?
[01:39] <faileas> keres_: windows file sharing and its linux 'port'
[01:39] <keres_> faileas: what is its apt-get?
[01:40] <faileas> keres_: er, package name?
[01:40] <faileas> one moment, i pull up an installation howto
[01:40] <keres_> samba?
[01:40] <keres_> sudo apt-get install samba?
[01:40] <faileas> probably but you will need a little bit of config
[01:40]  * faileas just tends to use the USB passthrough feature half the time >_>
[01:51] <BlueEagle> Is there a tutorial on improving the sluggish performance of KDE4?
[01:54] <jdfellow> i want to know how to add available volumes like hard drives to the desktop in Kubuntu 8.10
[01:54] <jdfellow> please
[02:06] <snarkster> what the heck is up amarok and plasma today? I can get amarok to start one time and then never again..
[02:07] <dr_willis> jdfellow,  you allready have the drives mounted somewher? you just want icons for them on the desktop?
[02:07] <snarkster> i think im going to have to uninstall everything all over again.
[02:08] <snarkster> kde4 doesnt put icons on the desktop..
[02:08] <dr_willis> kde4 has a mounted-places/devices  panel applet - or ya could just use the folderview applet show /media/ as another waty
[02:08] <snarkster> true
[02:19] <dan_> Howdy
[02:21] <dan_> I was not expecting this.  This is kewl
[02:21]  * genii hands out coffees
[02:22] <dr_willis> hmm?
[02:22]  * dr_willis wants DoughNuts!
[02:30] <joh6nn> Does anyone know how to remove Desktop Activities in the 4.2 Beta?
[02:32]  * genii goes and gets some Tim Horton's doughnuts for dr_willis
[02:34] <joh6nn> also, anyone know why my updates-notifier has disappeared, and how i get it back?
[02:35] <kevin__> my computer always runs in low graphics mode
[02:36] <kevin__> and i have ati binary activated for my 9800xt
[02:39] <kevin__> im having severe graphics issues and have been mucking around to try to fix  it but im a n00b and probably messed things up further
[02:40] <joh6nn> kevin__: define "severe graphics issues"
[02:45] <kevin__> do you know of any solution to my graphics problem.  it scrambles when i try to do a few things like acess my display settings
[02:45] <kevin__> like cannot use scrambles the display
[02:45] <kevin__> and gives errors on startup
[02:45] <kevin__> like edid
[02:45] <kevin__> 0
[02:45] <joh6nn> what errors does it give?
[02:45] <kevin__> fglrx
[02:45] <kevin__> do you want me to get it
[02:45] <kevin__> holdon
[02:48] <kevin__> oh it also cycles like turns the monitor on and off a few times before it gives me the error i am currently about to read (its on my desktop and im on my laptop)
[02:48] <kevin__> ok it says
[02:48] <kevin__> (EE) fglrx(0): unknown EDID version 0
[02:48] <kevin__> ubuntu is running low gfx mode
[02:49] <kevin__> the following was encountred.  you may need to update bla bla bla
[02:49] <kevin__> your configuration to solve this
[02:49] <joh6nn> are you sure it's turning the monitor off?  more likely would be that it's trying to a few different video modes, but none of them work
[02:50] <kevin__> right
[02:50] <joh6nn> are you using Kubuntu 8.04 or 8.10?
[02:50] <kevin__> i mean it makes that click noise
[02:50] <kevin__> 8.q0
[02:50] <joh6nn> ok
[02:50] <kevin__> and i think the led changes orange? dont remember
[02:50] <joh6nn> i know they messed with video stuff for 8.10, but i'm not sure if that makes a difference
[02:50] <kevin__> i mean 8.10 sorry
[02:51] <joh6nn> i'm assuming there's a command line for you to type at?
[02:51] <snarkster> amarok 2 will not work in KDE 4.2. But it works like a charm in XFCE
[02:51] <kevin__> i mean i can use the terminal when i havent done anything to scramble it
[02:52] <snarkster> you have a screwed up terminal?
[02:52] <kevin__> also after the error it asks      run in low gfx/ reconfigure/ troubleshoot the error
[02:52] <kevin__> no i have screwed up display something
[02:52] <kevin__> fglrx
[02:52] <joh6nn> ok.  from the terminal, try running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:53] <kevin__> there is the option in the error thing to troubleshoot it and get some outputs from it
[02:53] <kevin__> but im going to low graphics mode now to enter that
[02:53] <joh6nn> actually, you'll need to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:53] <kevin__> ok
[02:53] <joh6nn> snarkster: i've got amarok 2 running fine in 4.2; what errors are you getting?
[02:55] <kevin__> john, use kernel framebuffer device interface?
[02:55] <joh6nn> probably doesn't matter
[02:55] <kevin__> ill try yes
[02:56] <kevin__> ?
[02:56] <kevin__> heh
[02:56] <kevin__> xkb rule set to use?
[02:56] <kevin__> xorg?
[02:56] <joh6nn> i usually just use the defaults
[02:56] <kevin__> is what is already there
[02:56] <kevin__> ok
[02:58] <kevin__> now its asking me about my keyboard and i can click ok
[02:58] <kevin__> cant
[02:58] <kevin__> lol
[02:59] <genii> kevin__: It's command line. Use TAB to switch fields and ENTER to select
[03:00] <snarkster> im not getting any errors, i get the splash screen and then nothing happens
[03:00] <snarkster> im in XFCE right now and its aslittle slugish to get it stated and only starts from a cold boot
[03:01] <kevin__> omg i just closed it before i saw that and now im restarting because it doesnt want to start that sudo thing again
[03:01] <snarkster> ive not had really good luck with 4.2 beta..
[03:01] <snarkster> plasma erros, systray not shwing all that it should
[03:06] <kevin__> john6nn it says in terminal warning:possible customised config file backup in /ext...
[03:07] <kevin__> or anyone actually
[03:09] <kevin__> ok so i just went ahead to try to see if that reconfiguration helped and i clicked on the thing that said display in system settings and now  the screen again is a bunch of diagonal lines and i will need to hard restart
[03:10] <radlipat> can someone help me im having trouble with linux kubuntu
[03:10] <radlipat> i cant install shockwave
[03:10] <tkstka> why does listen.pls stop
[03:11] <tkstka> when I try to watch stream
[03:11] <tkstka> video stream
[03:11] <genii> radlipat: Correct. This is since shockwave is based on requiring Microsoft ActiveX which doesn't exist in Linux
[03:11] <radlipat> ohhh
[03:11] <tkstka> H264 Codec
[03:11] <radlipat> ok so is there a way to watch youtube on linux?
[03:11] <tkstka> :o
[03:11] <tkstka> there is
[03:12] <snarkster> install flash
[03:12] <tkstka> install flash
[03:12] <tkstka> :D
[03:12] <tkstka> first thing I did
[03:12] <genii> radlipat: youtube doesn't need shockwave, just flash
[03:12] <radlipat> oh ok ty
[03:12] <kevin__> anyone
[03:13] <snarkster> !ati
[03:13] <genii> kevin__: Don't hard reboot if possible. If you can do ctrl-alt-f1   then login to terminal
[03:13] <kevin__> oh
[03:13] <kevin__> ctr alt f1 will "unscramble" it?
[03:14] <snarkster> he has jacked up terminal
[03:14] <genii> kevin__: ctrl-alt-f1 will shift you to a non-graphical console which hopefully will have readable text
[03:14] <radlipat> oh yes is there a way to install pirates of the caribbean online w/o shockwave insince disney.com needs shockwave
[03:14] <ricardo> hello
[03:14] <kevin__> i mean the whole screen is a bunch of diagonal colorful lines and my mouse moves like a point through it but like moving it up moves it horizontaly upward and then starts over again on the other side
[03:14] <snarkster> kevin__: type tput init
[03:14] <snarkster> tput reset
[03:14] <snarkster> stty sane
[03:14] <kevin__> but it doesnt look like a mouse
[03:15] <kevin__> tput init in the terminal?
[03:15] <genii> radlipat: Anything requiring specifically shockwave won't work under linux without extensive and dangerous tinkering
[03:15] <radlipat> ohhh ok thankyou very much then
[03:15] <snarkster> yup the scrambled one
[03:16] <genii> kevin__: Are you able to get to a text based screen which is not diagonal stripes with ctrl-alt-f1  ?
[03:16]  * genii wonders what exactly doesn't look like a mouse
[03:16] <kevin__> well i already hard reset itwell i had hard reset it before u got to me but now im at a normal screen
[03:17] <kevin__> that xserver reconfigure might have changed comething because the taskbar spans the entire screen now
[03:17] <kevin__> well when i hit display butten in settings
[03:17] <genii> kevin__: Spontaneous improvisation on your part makes it difficult to assist. Since you can put the system into an even more unstable state this way
[03:18] <kevin__> well the problem is that i did that reconfig thing someone told me to do
[03:18] <kevin__> an got no response
[03:18] <kevin__> i went to check the display if it was fixed
[03:18] <kevin__> and it scrambled
[03:18] <kevin__> then i hard reset it
[03:18] <kevin__> the taskbar or whatever goes all the way across the screen in it now
[03:18] <genii> kevin__: You DID get a response. You need to wait longer than 60-90 seconds for people to prepare replies etc etc
[03:19] <kevin__> well i am HIGHLY appriciative of the responses
[03:19] <kevin__> but i was going quickly
[03:19] <kevin__> what should i try now i would like to look at the display settings after the reset but what do you think i should do
[03:20] <genii> kevin__: At any rate if your graphical system is usable again, you can go from there to try and set it how it's supposed to end up
[03:20] <genii> kevin__: So curently your resolution is acceptable?
[03:21] <kevin__> and the thing that doesnt look like a mouse was after i clicked display before the hard reboot, the screen was like stretched out 4 miles long then run at a 15 degree upward slope and the mouse is just a smal line withing the long bar that was my display
[03:21] <kevin__> it appears to be so, let me check the settings
[03:22] <radlipat> ok for flash install what version do i use
[03:22] <genii> kevin__: Also re: waiting for replies... if you are talking with a specific person, put their name at the start of your message to them. Otherwise if they are in some other channel, they have no idea anyone is talking to them
[03:24] <kevin__> ok i see what you are saying
[03:24] <genii> radlipat: Use the add/remove programs and install from there the package called "flashplugin-nonfree"
[03:24] <radlipat> ok ty
[03:25] <kevin__> genii now my res is acceptable how do i make the cube effect when tabbing between workspaces as well as the big blob of jellow for a window effects
[03:25] <kevin__> do i need to activate my ati driver again?
[03:25] <kevin__> genii also the display settings do not scramble me anymore
[03:26] <genii> kevin__: If you're using compiz-fusion for this, you might want tyo ask them in their channel, #compiz-fusion
[03:26] <snarkster> !compiz
[03:26]  * genii hands snarkster a coffee
[03:26] <snarkster> oh thank you, i needed that
[03:26] <genii> radlipat: You're welcome
[03:26] <genii> snarkster: Anytime :)
[03:27] <binskipy2u> hey guys, is there a "wallpaper" changer for kubuntu 4.1.3? that cycles the wallpapers like "desktop drapes" does on Ubuntu?
[03:28] <snarkster> i am having a hell of a time getting hotway to work with evolution
[03:28] <binskipy2u> anyone use a wallpaper changer for kubuntu? i miss the wallpaper per desktop like on 3.5.10
[03:28] <kevin__> thanks genii
[03:28] <snarkster> kamil wouldnt work at all..
[03:28] <binskipy2u> anyone?
[03:28] <genii> kevin__: You're welcome
[03:28] <joh6nn> binskipy2u: it's coming in 4.2, if i remember
[03:29] <binskipy2u> i figure there'd be "something" i can do now?
[03:29] <genii> snarkster: I hear also gotmail is a pita as well.
[03:29] <joh6nn> i upgraded to the 4.2 beta, so no idea
[03:29] <snarkster> well hotway is configured correctly but i just cant seem to be able to send.
[03:29]  * mrksbrd hands genii a cup of coffee......here u go bro!
[03:30] <radlipat> ok i cant find it under add or removeprograms
[03:30] <genii> mrksbrd: Yay, coffee!!
[03:30] <mrksbrd> lol....know u can never have enough
[03:30] <genii> radlipat: You may need to enable the repository which it is in
[03:31] <genii> !info flashplugin-nonfree
[03:31] <radlipat> how would i do that??
[03:31] <mrksbrd> genii: have u ever heard of ubuntu ultimate
[03:31] <radlipat> ??????????????
[03:31] <Roey> HI
[03:31] <radlipat> i am new to kubuntu
[03:31] <radlipat> and linux
[03:32] <mrksbrd> radlipat: in adept
[03:32] <Roey> libmysqlclient15-dev doesn't seem to be compiled with -fPIC for 64-bit architectures, and it's breaking my compile of amarok 2.
[03:32] <joh6nn> radlipat: i missed it; what're you trying to install?
[03:32] <genii> radlipat: It is in the repository called multiverse. So in Adept (the "add/remove" application) you can tell it to use this one
[03:32] <genii> joh6nn: flash
[03:32] <joh6nn> ah
[03:32] <mrksbrd> or terminal....sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[03:33] <genii> mrksbrd: Yes,
[03:33] <genii> bah
[03:33] <genii> (cat is crawling on keyboard)
[03:33]  * mrksbrd hates cats
[03:33] <mrksbrd> what do u think of it?
[03:33] <joh6nn> actually, would probably be better to shoot multiple birds with one stone; if radlipat is new to linux, $10 says he'll be wanting all of the restricted extras
[03:33] <MoLoot_> Hello all :)
[03:34] <genii> mrksbrd: Yes, ubuntu ultimate however is not supprted here. Also for his apt-get install to work, he'd still need to have multiverse repo enabled ;)
[03:34] <radlipat> you win!!!!!
[03:34] <radlipat> lol
[03:34] <mrksbrd> true
[03:34] <snarkster> loves cats and has 4 of them
[03:34] <MoLoot_> I upgraded to Intrepid and now can't see video like on myspace.  Am I missing a package?
[03:34] <mrksbrd> yea i knew it wasn't supported
[03:34] <radlipat> so how do i get them?
[03:34] <genii> joh6nn: Over to you ;)
[03:34] <joh6nn> radlipat: in the Add & Remove programs tool, in the top left, it should say "Sources"
[03:35] <radlipat> ummmmmmm
[03:35] <snarkster> is there a way to remove the beta and go back to 4.1.3
[03:36] <radlipat> acctual add or remove or in package manager?
[03:36] <kevin__> genii ok i tried to activate the ati driver again and now im back to getting that edid error
[03:36] <joh6nn> radlipat: are you on 8.10 or 8.04?
[03:36] <radlipat> lol 6. 06
[03:36] <radlipat> lmao
[03:36] <snarkster> nice
[03:36] <genii> kevin__: edid type errors means it can't understand what sort of monitor you have attached
[03:36] <snarkster> FTW
[03:36] <joh6nn> uh
[03:37] <kevin__> genii and now the desktop is back to higher resolution and a short bar at the bottom
[03:37] <joh6nn> why are you using such an old version?
[03:37] <radlipat> lol got from grandma a couple of years ago
[03:37] <kevin__>  (EE) fglrx(0): unknown EDID version 0
[03:37]  * genii ships radlipat an 8.04 CD

[03:47]  * MoLoot_ is reinstalling his java packages and hopign that works..
[03:48] <mrksbrd> that will put correct drivers for ati in there, might be ablr configure it more kinda like NVIDIA's X SERVER
[03:48] <kevin__> how will i find it once i adaptec it?
[03:48] <radlipat> i still cant
[03:48] <mrksbrd> google it
[03:48] <m_> so i just finished installing kubuntu and a bunch of fun programs onto my uncle

[03:49] <mrksbrd> google envyng
[03:49] <genii> snarkster: Damn, I was actually thinking just that
[03:49] <mrksbrd> will be able to d/l it fromsite
[03:49] <radlipat> joh6mm:????? i still cant enter password
[03:50] <genii> !envyng
[03:51] <mrksbrd> when i tried to enable s-video port on mine it was hit or miss with NVIDIA x-server....sometimes it will work other times it wouldn't.
[03:51] <mrksbrd> ty genii
[03:51] <radlipat> ok password worked
[03:51] <kevin__> doesnt that mean if it is now in the reposi tha i will be able to dl id adaptec

[03:51] <radlipat> now what?
[03:52] <m_> i uncheckd the "enable desktop effects", will that really disable all the effects? is there something similar to what is in kde3 where you can tell kde to keep the eye low low?
[03:52] <genii> kevin__: Yes, it should be installable from Adept
[03:52] <radlipat> hello joh6????????????
[03:52] <m_> eye candy*
[03:53] <radlipat> anyone?????????
[03:53] <snarkster> smoke break brb
[03:54] <joh6nn> radlipat: sorry, a little busy
[03:54] <joh6nn> ok, you should have a kind of archaic text editor open now
[03:54]  * MoLoot_ is beginning to wish he stayed with 8.04...
[03:54] <radlipat> ummmm ?????
[03:54] <radlipat> mabey????
[03:55] <radlipat> it gave a list of things with ## in front of them
[03:55] <joh6nn> yeah
[03:55] <kevin__> gtk qt or core or all of the above
[03:55] <kevin__> this is in synaptic
[03:55]  * mrksbrd isn't going to switch to 8.10 until the buggies are worked out
[03:55] <radlipat> ok
[03:55] <kevin__> after envyng
[03:55] <joh6nn> you want to find all the lines that end with "multiverse", and remove the ## from the front of them
[03:56] <MoLoot_> mrksbrd: I just would like to have all of the mutlimedia capabilities in firefox that I did before the upgrade....
[03:56] <mrksbrd> what particularly looking for?
[03:56] <kevin__> genii or mrksbrd
[03:57] <radlipat> there isnt any however there is 'UNIVERSE'
[03:57] <kevin__> do i use the gtk of the qt or core versions? do you know? maybe it will automaticaly include everything
[03:57] <mrksbrd> yes kevin
[03:57] <genii> kevin__: qt   since on kde
[03:57] <joh6nn> radlipat: good enough
[03:57] <radlipat> ok
[03:57] <mrksbrd> if u hit core it should select whatever else is needed
[03:58] <radlipat> ummm i cant remove them
[03:58] <joh6nn> hit Insert, then try
[03:59] <genii> nano might have been a better choice ...
[03:59] <kevin__> now that i have it installed, do i restart or where would i find it
[03:59] <radlipat> nope it only beeps
[03:59] <joh6nn> genii: honestly, i have never figured out how to use nano. :/
[03:59] <m_> !desktop
[03:59] <genii> radlipat: hit esc a few times
[03:59] <radlipat> ok it worked now
[03:59] <m_> !effects
[04:00] <m_> hmm, no help
[04:00] <mrksbrd> kevin__/; check under system menu
[04:01] <joh6nn> radlipat: ok, now hit Esc, and make sure that it doesn't say "--Insert--" or anything down at the bottom of the screen
[04:01] <joh6nn> if you're it doesn't, then type ":x"
[04:02] <joh6nn> if you're sure, that is
[04:02] <radlipat> ok
[04:03] <joh6nn> that work?
[04:03] <mrksbrd> kevin__: did u find it
[04:03] <radlipat> :xit typed then what?
[04:03] <snarkster> yah I heard something about mouse issues with intrepid.. Ive had no issues with anything on intrepid
[04:04] <joh6nn> radlipat: ":x" should save, and close the file you were just working on
[04:04] <mrksbrd> snarkster: i've had all good luck running 8.10 on desktops....laptops are a different story
[04:04] <radlipat> ok so close konsole?
[04:04] <joh6nn> no
[04:04] <radlipat> ok
[04:05] <snarkster> really? what are the issues with laptops?
[04:05] <mrksbrd> on mine @ least hangs with some kind of usb issue
[04:05] <radlipat> then what?
[04:05] <radlipat> i did not close konsole
[04:05] <joh6nn> now run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-cache search flash | grep adobe"
[04:05] <snarkster> really?
[04:06] <radlipat> is there a space between apt and get?
[04:06] <snarkster> when you say hangs, talking hard lock or X stops responding till you unplug the offending device
[04:06] <joh6nn> radlipat: no, there's a dash
[04:06] <mrksbrd> only way i get it to run thru first part of install boot is to hold down any key on keyboard
[04:06] <snarkster> wow
[04:06] <mrksbrd> the rest will go thru fine
[04:07] <mrksbrd> but after it is installed i have to hold the button down again so it continues to boot
[04:08] <snarkster> have you turned acpi off?
[04:08] <radlipat> how i make line?
[04:08] <joh6nn> radlipat: what?
[04:08] <mrksbrd> when i run recovery, thats where i see it hanging on some type of usb issue
[04:08] <joh6nn> oh
[04:08] <radlipat> |
[04:08] <joh6nn> it's probably the key about Enter
[04:08] <joh6nn> above*
[04:08] <snarkster> hmm module issue
[04:09] <mrksbrd> that's what i;m thinking
[04:09] <radlipat> do i type "???
[04:09] <snarkster> anyway Ive got it running on my asus aspire 6930
[04:09] <radlipat> "
[04:09] <joh6nn> no
[04:09] <radlipat> ok
[04:09] <radlipat> it typed a list of htmls
[04:09] <radlipat> srry tired https
[04:09] <mrksbrd> i remember when 8.0 was released had the same issue, then i guess it was eventually fixed
[04:10] <mrksbrd> hopefully this will be the same
[04:10] <mrksbrd> maybe it is just an issue w/HP products
[04:11] <radlipat> now what?
[04:11] <joh6nn> radlipat: ok, now try "apt-cache search flash"
[04:12] <radlipat> ok
[04:12] <radlipat> now?
[04:12] <mrksbrd> has anyone tried the new beta?
[04:12] <snarkster> ok im out, going to try to get EVE Online to work with my video card.. sheesh
[04:12] <joh6nn> did it find anything?
[04:13] <mrksbrd> genii: have u tried the new beta yet?
[04:14] <radlipat> ok "konqueror - kde's advanced file manager, web browser and document viewer adobe-flashplugin - adobe flash player plugin version 10"
[04:14] <rooooob> when can we expect the kubuntu-experimental source to have beta2?
[04:15] <genii> mrksbrd: Jaunty? Not yet
[04:15] <radlipat> is what it said
[04:15] <mrksbrd> appearence any different?3
[04:15] <radlipat> god please help me through colege!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[04:16] <radlipat> lol i wanna be an ITlol
[04:16] <brad_> ok so this is a really simple and hopefully really short question. on the newer kopete instead of showing me a link it shows the word link, then opens to a temporary cache
[04:16] <brad_> it is driving me crazy and I dont see a setting anywhere
[04:16] <mrksbrd> RAD, what do u need just the plugins?
[04:16] <joh6nn> radlipat: ok, now type "sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin"
[04:16] <radlipat> yes but im on old version 6.06
[04:17] <joh6nn> that should be it
[04:17] <brad_> and dont understand why anyone would want to see the word link instead of the link (esp as links you follow after clicking it dont work, and one has to copy link location)
[04:17] <mrksbrd> 6.06 use debs????
[04:17] <radlipat> i think so mrk
[04:18] <radlipat> thats what my skype is
[04:18] <radlipat> ok typed that
[04:18] <joh6nn> that should be it
[04:18] <joh6nn> it should be installed now
[04:18] <radlipat> and a LONG list came by
[04:19] <radlipat> ok now i should test it on youtube?
[04:19] <joh6nn> oh.  it probably wants you to update things
[04:19] <joh6nn> you may need to tell it yes and let it install updates
[04:19] <joh6nn> but after that, it should be all set
[04:20] <radlipat> in adept?
[04:21] <radlipat> joh6???????????
[04:22] <radlipat> can i close konsole now?
[04:22] <mrksbrd> radlipat: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

[05:12] <binskipy2u> it wont let me
[05:12] <binskipy2u> i just installed kubuntu 20min ago
[05:12] <bazhang> binskipy2u, dont
[05:12] <bazhang> binskipy2u, use sudo

[05:12] <binskipy2u> io made a root password
[05:12] <genii> binskipy2u: In ubuntu nothing is supposed to be run as root user logged in...ever. That is why to use sudo
[05:12] <binskipy2u> it wont let me
[05:13] <binskipy2u> i have a root password
[05:13] <bazhang> binskipy2u, that is not a good idea at all; especially with a file browser
[05:13] <binskipy2u> there's some command, xhost something
[05:13] <binskipy2u> that allows it
[05:13] <olskolirc> my repository is supposed to be downloading 4.2 beta but im reading a lot of 4:4.1.80 during the install.  Is this normal?
[05:13] <jussi01> olskolirc: i had a few issues getting it installed. and a few things crash,  but generally it works well
[05:13] <genii> binkipy2u: Besides which X itself has a safeguard so not to allow you to run as root as well
[05:13] <olskolirc> thanks jussi01
[05:13] <binskipy2u> damnit i had to do it in ubuntu too
[05:13] <binskipy2u> its a command xhost something something
[05:13] <jussi01> olskolirc: 4.1.80 is 4.2 beta
[05:14] <binskipy2u> to allow m e to su i put my password
[05:14] <binskipy2u> then i type konqueror
[05:14] <binskipy2u> or nautilus
[05:14] <binskipy2u> and it lets me
[05:14] <binskipy2u> anyone know what it is
[05:14] <olskolirc> ok thanks jussi01
[05:14] <jussi01> !enter | binskipy2u
[05:14] <binskipy2u> i'm gogogling and googleing

[05:14] <binskipy2u> i cant run anything as root
[05:14] <binskipy2u> ive dont it before
[05:14] <binskipy2u> i dont ermemeber the command
[05:14] <bazhang> binskipy2u, ie your are on your own; breakage almost certainly to follow
[05:14] <genii> binskipy2u: Perhaps you're not reading the replies. We won't assist you to run things as root
[05:14] <binskipy2u> ive done it for years
[05:14] <binskipy2u> you dont un derstand
[05:14] <binskipy2u> ive dont this before

[05:15] <radlipat> [23:19] <radlipat> or does fedora cost money??????????
[05:15] <jussi01> binskipy2u: stop using enter as punctuation please!
[05:15] <bazhang> binskipy2u, couple of points
[05:15] <jussi01> radlipat: this is a kubuntu support channel
[05:15] <bazhang> binskipy2u, stop typing two words and hitting enter please
[05:15] <genii> radlipat: fedora is free but they will never ship you a CD unless you pay them
[05:15] <radlipat> ahhhhhhhhhhh dang well ty anyhow
[05:16] <binskipy2u> so no one knows that command that will lalow me to use my computer and make folders etc in root directory
[05:16] <hong> can someone explain me why there are no virtualbox-ose-modules for my kernel 24.22
[05:16] <bazhang> binskipy2u, also, root password is strongly discouraged; use kdesudo but even then exercise great caution
[05:16] <binskipy2u> xhost something something.. so i dont have to su and then type konqueror
[05:17] <bazhang> binskipy2u, explain on one line what you are trying to accomplish.
[05:17] <radlipat> night all and ty 4 ur help
[05:18] <binskipy2u> EVERYTIME ifve ever installed ubuntu, kubuntu, i sudo passwd root to make a root password
[05:18] <binskipy2u> and in order to use SU to switch to root, id type konqueror or nautilus to have aroot browser to add some folders
[05:18] <jussi01> !supportroot | binskipy2u
[05:18] <binskipy2u> ive always done it, i can NOT remember the command that allows to use
[05:19] <VistaUser> HEY
[05:19] <bazhang> hi
[05:19] <hong> where are the virtual modules for 24.22
[05:19] <binskipy2u> so hywo the hell do you su to root to use a root browser in ubuntu ku8buntu if you cant tell me the command to make it happen
[05:20] <jussi01> binskipy2u: I already told you: kdesudo konqueror
[05:20] <hong> binskipy2u: there is no root as default in *buntu that is so you dont have to remember 2 passwrds
[05:20] <genii> hong: Well, he's gone and changed that
[05:21] <binskipy2u> i'm googling the command to find it....
[05:22] <binskipy2u> i cant findit
[05:22] <bazhang> binskipy2u, jussi01 told you.
[05:22] <jussi01> binskipy2u: you are unnecessarily filling the channel, please use enter more sparingly.
[05:24] <binskipy2u> i found it, xhost +
[05:24] <genii> binskipy2u: We can only offer you support if you use your (k)ubuntu in the manner which it was intended. That is to say, not running as root.
[05:26] <genii> Well that was interesting
[05:33] <PSiL0> !utf
[05:34] <PSiL0> !utf-8
[05:34] <genii> PSiL0: What is it you are trying to find out about UTF-8 ?
[05:35] <PSiL0> I have a few m3u's I from windows that I want to import into amarok
[05:35] <PSiL0> a few files have special characters (latin-1)
[05:35] <PSiL0> these are listed in the m3u
[05:36] <PSiL0> I want to figure out how to convert the m3u => unix
[05:36] <PSiL0> I tried dos2unix without luck
[05:37] <neverendingo> Hello folks, maybe someone has a hint for me. Using gimp2.6.1 on kde4 after the upgrade to 8.10 i no longer have taskbar entries for the toolbox and the layers window. And as i have many windows open it is somehow hard to manage ;) How can i enable the taskbar entries again?
[05:37] <genii> PSiL0: Did you look at this yet? http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=70579
[05:38] <PSiL0> genii: interesting.  That might be usefull, but I just want something to convert the troublesome characters listed in the m3u file to utf-8
[05:39] <genii> PSiL0: If you read there, it does from 8859-1 and others to Unicode
[05:40] <genii> PSiL0: eg: "Right clicking on the file and choosing "EncodingConverter" and "Convert to
[05:40] <genii> Unicode" will open a window that shows all relevant tag fields and an encoding
[05:40] <genii> chooser. The encoding guesser will try to find a best match for the given
[05:40] <genii> content "

[05:42] <genii> Reading
[05:43] <PSiL0> genii:  Amarok goofs when reading the the line where the mp3 is during importing, so it doesn't import the file..
[05:43] <PSiL0> don't worry, I'm going to replace the windows directory stem..
[05:44] <PSiL0> it should import ../Claude Debussy - Clair de Lune (1995)/15 - N° 1.mp3
[05:44] <seektherapy> my package manager will not start !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:44] <PSiL0> instead it looks for ../Claude Debussy - Clair de Lune (1995)/15 - N&#65533; 1.mp3

[05:47] <VistaUser> hey
[05:57] <PSiL0> genii: anything?
[06:00] <PSiL0> i'll just use this then: seemed to work: iconv -f latin1 -t utf-8 %u -o %u_utf-8

[09:17] <zeth_> I just installed kubuntu as opposed to ubuntu and am wondering about a few things ... first is where is the bluetooth applet?
[09:18] <zeth_> also ... what do i use to install/uninstall packages
[09:18] <zeth_> ?
[09:18] <zeth_> I saw Adept but that seemes inadequate for what I need
[09:19] <zeth_> anyone?
[09:19] <eagles0513875> zeth_ its called kbluetooth i believe
[09:19] <eagles0513875> !bluetooth | zeltak
[09:19] <eagles0513875> zeltak mt bro
[09:19] <eagles0513875> !bluetooth | zeth_
[09:19] <zeltak> yes?
[09:19] <stdin> why is Adept inadequate for you?
[09:19] <eagles0513875> that was a misstype on my part zeltak
[09:19] <zeltak> k np
[09:20] <zeth_> I want to install/uninstall packages ... not whole apps
[09:20] <eagles0513875> zeth_ then use the command line command apt-get remove
[09:20] <stdin> that's what adept does, yes
[09:20] <stdin> it installs packages
[09:20] <stdin> unless you're looking at the "Add/Remove Applications" thing, which is not full Adept
[09:20] <zeth_> well when I search for a specific package it says its not found
[09:21] <stdin> what package?
[09:22] <zeth_> oh hey ... my friend just told me to go to Applications > System > Package Manager
[09:22] <zeth_> cool ... looks more like it
[09:22] <zeth_> why is BT not working out of the box like with Ubuntu?
[09:23] <zeth_> seems odd
[09:23] <zeth_> this link to bluetooth docs is outdated and not what I need
[09:23] <ahmed> hi all
[09:24] <zeth_> where in Kubuntu can i find the BT applet?
[09:28] <zeth_> I must be totally overlooking this BT thing ... where the heck is it?

[10:19] <zeth_> ok I rebooted and got this message:
[10:19] <zeth_> Application: KBluetooth4 - The KDE4 Bluetooth Framework (kbluetooth4), signal SIGSEGV
[10:19] <zeth_> Thread 1 (Thread 0xb613d6c0 (LWP 6014)):
[10:19] <zeth_> [KCrash Handler]
[10:19] <zeth_> #6  0x0805b946 in _start ()
[10:19] <zeth_> I am just trying to get bluetooth working ...
[10:20] <loevborg> Can some kind fellow relieve my pain and tell me how to get rid of the audible bell in Konsole permenanetly in hardy?
[10:21] <loevborg> X-Chat already has visual bell, but Konsole keeps forgetting its good manners all the time.
[10:22] <zeth_> I just read somewhere that Kubuntu 8.10 does not support bluetooth!!! How can that be?
[10:22] <zeth_> its got to be bad info .. right?
[10:23] <eagles0513875> yes zeth_
[10:23] <eagles0513875> !pastebin | zeth_
[10:23] <eagles0513875> !info bluetooth
[10:23] <eagles0513875> zeth_  it does exists where ever u read that they are super wrong
[10:25] <zeth_> well its in the release notes
[10:26] <zeth_> look it says it here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810#Kubuntu%2520Bluetooth%2520support
[10:26] <Tm_T> eagles0513875: zeth_: bluetooth is not supported in KDE4 gui
[10:26] <Tm_T> but bluetooth is supported, if you know how to use it without KDE4 gui, yes
[10:26] <zeth_> Bluetooth is not supported in Kubuntu 8.10 because KDE does not yet support the bluez 4.x stack required for compatibility with the kernel used in 8.10. A fix for this is being evaluated as a post-release update.
[10:27] <zeth_> what do you mean "use it without the KDE4 GUI"?
[10:27] <Tm_T> zeth_: commandline tools
[10:27] <zeth_> you mean terminal and stuff?
[10:27] <zeth_> awwwwwww
[10:27] <Tm_T> yes
[10:27] <Tm_T> and FYI that is getting fixed, slowly, but not yet
[10:27] <zeth_> what the ....
[10:27] <zeth_> seems like someone forgot to tie their shoes ... shucks
[10:28] <amerigo> ! openoffice italiano
[10:28] <amerigo> ! openoffice.it
[10:28] <amerigo> ! openoffice it
[10:28] <zeth_> well is there a simple how-to on getting BT to work without the GUI tools?
[10:29] <amerigo> there's a channel to speach of openoffice in italian?
[10:30] <zeth_> ahhh ... someone is saying to install bluez-gnome
[10:30] <zeth_> seems KDE cannot stand on its own two feet yet .... :0
[10:35] <Tm_T> zeth_: the bluetooth author did gnome part but left KDE side alone, so, we obviously drag behind
[10:36] <zeth_> yeah
[10:36] <webas> how to update kernel? anyone can give me a hint?
[10:37] <zeth_> bluez-gnome works great
[10:37] <zeth_> :)
[10:38] <zeth_> how do I get wobbly windows and all that compiz stuff going in Kubuntu?
[10:39] <zeth_> where do I go to add things I want to start up at login?
[10:41] <tboxmy> wow....bluetooth problems!
[10:42] <zeth_> you too?
[10:42] <zeth_> does Kopete no longer support MSN?
[10:43] <SlimeyPete> zeth_: kopete MSN support periodically dies when MS update the protocol
[10:45] <zeth_> ok
[10:45] <zeth_> what about getting apps to startup at login?
[10:47] <zeth_> gosh my Yahoo won't even sign in
[10:51] <vge> has someone done "minimize windows" in KDE instead of "Show Desktop" allready?
[10:57] <jm_> in the new 4.1.3 can we hide the taskbar :)

[11:32] <tkstka> I did it once before but I dont remember what I wrote
[11:32] <tkstka> I tried to google
[11:32] <tkstka> but I suck
[11:32] <tkstka> so I was hoping for someone to paste it here
[11:33] <ScorpKing> tkstka: what disk and partition is it? /dev/<?>

[12:33] <Andrew``> can anyone tell me about syncing repositories??
[12:34] <Andrew``> am new to kubuntu
[12:34] <tyfon> Andrew``: do you want to mirror it locally or just update what packs are ther?
[12:35] <Andrew``> I want to find the kaudiocreator package through adept or synaptic
[12:35] <Andrew``> and was told maybe thats my problem
[12:35] <stdin> Andrew``: that package doesn't exist in intrepid
[12:35] <Andrew``> http://paste.ubuntu.com/84319/
[12:36] <Andrew``> ok
[12:36] <Andrew``> how do I get it then?
[12:36] <stdin> you'll have to find the source and compile it
[12:36] <Andrew``> I want to be able to roip CD's at 256 or better bitrate
[12:36] <Andrew``> ok.. is there a website that I can go to for help in compiling
[12:36] <Andrew``> ?
[12:37] <dr_willis> Hmmm.. I thought one ripped cd's at the rate the wave files were in.. and then you reencoded to flac/mp3/whatever at a different rate
[12:37] <stdin> actually, you can't compile it easily, it needs kdemultimedia-kio-plugins from KDE3
[12:38] <Andrew``> maybe you can help maybe with 'lame' commands?
[12:39] <stdin> Andrew``: install kdemultimedia-kio-plugins and use System Settings -> Advanced -> Audio CD to set the bitrate. then go to audiocd:/ in dolphin/konqueror and rip away
[12:39] <dr_willis> I tend to just use GRIP to encode audio cd's to mp3 or flac or whatever...
[12:40] <eagles0513875> !okulus
[12:40] <eagles0513875> !oculus
[12:40] <eagles0513875> !pdf
[12:41] <stdin> eagles0513875: okular
[12:42] <Andrew``> ok dr_willis  so you can help me with grip then?
[12:43] <eagles0513875> ty stdin
[12:43] <dr_willis> Andrew``,  install it. use it.. its rather straight forwared..
[12:44] <dr_willis> Its can be configured to use any of several encoders, and  has gui settings for them all.
[12:44] <stdin> !pdf ~= ,kpdf,kpdf/okular,
[12:44] <Andrew``> its installed
[12:44] <Andrew``> have it open
[12:45] <Andrew``> it gives me an error about the path for the executable
[12:45] <Andrew``> dont know how to fix it
[12:45] <ScorpKing> where can i find the menu icon in kde4?
[12:46] <dr_willis> Andrew``,  path to what executable?
[12:46] <dr_willis> Andrew``,  you may need to install the various 'backend' tools it uses.  not all are installed for it as dependencies
[12:46] <Andrew``> encoder executable
[12:48] <Andrew``> is there a log file that gives me the ability to copy and paste it?
[12:49] <dr_willis> No idea.  if you run many apps from a terminal  they print messages there.
[12:49] <dr_willis> Its very likely grip is defaulting to some encoder you do Not have installed.. and thus you need to check the config tabs and isntall/configure it.
[12:49] <dr_willis> http://nostatic.org/grip/doc/ar01s04.html#mp3config
[12:49] <Andrew``> it opens fine.. just when I hit rip  and encode it gives me that error
[12:50] <dr_willis> sounds like you have it set to use an encoder thats not installed....
[12:50] <stdin> ScorpKing: /usr/share/icons/oxygen/*/apps/kde.png
[12:50] <ScorpKing> stdin: ah :) do you know what size is used for the menu?
[12:51] <stdin> I guess it depends on the size if the panel, but I think 32x32
[12:52] <ScorpKing> stdin: thanks i'll give it a try
[12:57] <mjobin> Hi
[12:57] <wet> hi
[12:57] <dr_willis> Moo!
[12:57] <mjobin> can I install KDE 4.1.80 and Koffice 2 beta unde Kubuntu 8.04 or I HAVE TO upgrade to 8.10 ?
[12:58] <wet>  dosen't matter whether 8.04 or 8.10
[12:58] <mjobin> why, I can't find it in adept then?
[13:04] <mjobin> wet: maybe I should precise that I wish to use the already compiled package provided by kubuntu
[13:07] <stdin> mjobin: http://www.kubuntu.org/node/58
[13:14] <mjobin> stdin: I visited this page before. I got confused because they were only mentionning about 8.10 ... so I thought I had to upgrade
[13:14] <mjobin> thanks
[13:16] <stdin> mjobin: it is only available for intrepid (8.10), hardy (8.04) doesn't have the correct libraries to run KDE 4.2 beta 1
[13:17] <mjobin> will i be able to keep my 3.5.10 install though?
[13:17] <mjobin> oh... I see
[13:17] <mjobin> wet earlier, said it did not matter....
[13:18] <mjobin> so I do need to upgrade....
[13:18] <stdin> if you want to run the beta, yes
[13:19] <mjobin> and I wont be able to keep kde 3.5 side by side, will i ?
[13:20] <stdin> no
[13:21] <Lektroluv> What to do when I get a screeninit failure when installing Ubuntu with Virtual PC 2007?
[13:21] <Lektroluv> Or Kubuntu
[13:22] <Lektroluv> Same failures
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: boot to failsafe and read dmesg
[13:25] <Lektroluv> thank you, but how do I do this?
[13:26] <Lektroluv> I haven't installed Ubuntu yet...
[13:27] <Lektroluv> Kubuntu in this case
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: boot, pres esc when grub offers, choose root console
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: if you havent installed it i'm guesing your media is bad. did you md5 check the image?
[13:28] <mjobin> stdin: thanks
[13:28] <Lektroluv> I've downloaded Ubuntu yesterday and Kubuntu today
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: did you check the iso as well as check the cd when it first boots
[13:29] <Lektroluv> no how can I check this
[13:29] <Lektroluv> with check cd for defects?
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> !md5
[13:31] <Lektroluv> how can I md5 cechck the image?
[13:34] <atno> !automated
[13:34] <atno> !automate
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: ubottu gave you the links on how to test  them, you should test ALL iso files you download for consistancy. Especially something like an operating system
[13:41] <setcom> help
[13:44] <pedro> oi
[13:45] <Lektroluv> ActionParsnip, md5sum: ./casper/filesystem.manifest-desktop: No such file or directory
[13:47] <marty__> hi...  i made a new hd install on my laptop... when i start kubuntu the intro interrupt after 1sec... how can i fix this problem?
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: read the guides
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | Lektroluv
[13:49] <Lektroluv> ActionParsnip, Make sure that when you download the CD iso to download the md5sum and place it in the same directory.
[13:49] <marty__> any support.. in here about my problem?
[13:49] <Lektroluv> where do I download md5Sum?
[13:49] <Lektroluv> of the iso
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: same place you ot the iso, the ubuntu servers
[13:51] <Lektroluv> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download???
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: http://whyamistilltyping.wordpress.com/2008/11/01/ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex-md5-checksums/
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: calculate the md5sum of the iage then compare it to those. You *NEED* a 100% match or the image is not usable
[13:58] <Lektroluv> MD5 checksums are the same
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: ok, boot the cd and run the cd tester there
[14:01] <Lektroluv> no errors found
[14:01] <Andrew``> ok I have installed grip, set the encoder oto lame and pointed it in the right direction... told it to rip and encode to MP3 .. it did a few things... but the MP3 file it created was empty... can anyone tell me why this happened?
[14:03] <Lektroluv> ActionParsnip, ok now I get Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode
[14:03] <Dolo> how do u delete apps from the start menu
[14:04] <Lektroluv> ActionParsnip, your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself.
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: well you havent installed anything or configured anything
[14:06] <Lektroluv> ActionParsnip, use default generic configuration OR create new configuration for this hardware OR use backed up conf
[14:06] <Lektroluv> ??
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: i'd try for the hardware. Ive not used this virtual pc stuff
[14:07] <atno> hello
[14:08] <atno> im trying to install kubuntu in 16 computers
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: as the hardware isnt native so im unsure, you'll have to read the manual for your virtualisation. Works fine in virtualbox
[14:08] <atno> isnt there an "easier" more understandable way to do it
[14:08] <atno> im trying the !automate solution
[14:08] <atno> but its a bit confusing for me
[14:09] <mjobin> atno: bcfg2
[14:11] <atno> mjobin: thank you :)
[14:12] <Lektroluv> ActionParsnip, I think I can see the problem, as I reconfigure the display it saves this temp file and asks to reboot. But when I reboot using Virtual Pc it loses all saved files...
[14:13] <Lektroluv> I'm now installing virtualbox
[14:14] <Lektroluv> any experience with vnware?
[14:14] <Lektroluv> vmware
[14:15] <snarkster> good morning.. running kde 4.2 beta on my laptop.. takes dolphin about 1 min to open and other sundry things not working well.. ran dolphin from konsole and got this response:<unknown program name>(6528)/: Communication problem with  "dolphin" , it probably crashed.
[14:15] <snarkster> Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Did not receive a reply. Possiblecauses include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." "
[14:16] <snarkster> what is going on on my box?
[14:16] <snarkster> dolphin is now open
[14:17] <comedit> my screen goes greyish at random (I think) but systemsettings is not strting up so i cannot see what setting it is
[14:18] <comedit> anybody an idea how to check why systemsettings is not starting up
[14:18] <snarkster> maybe not installed?
[14:19] <comedit> it was working before
[14:20] <comedit> i will check if it was removed by accident
[14:23] <comedit> was not removed but i reinstalled still not running
[14:25] <comedit> the menu says this command: systemsettings -caption "%c" %i
[14:25] <comedit> is that ok for kubuntu 8.10 ?
[14:27] <Lektroluv> ActionParsnip, thanks now succesfully installing Ubuntu
[14:28] <Lektroluv> whats the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: sweet
[14:28] <ikonia> the desktop
[14:28] <ikonia> Lektroluv: one is kde one is gnome
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: kubuntu uses kde + kwin
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: ubuntu uses metacity + gnome
[14:28] <snarkster> comedit what happens when you type systemsettings in a terminal
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: you can install gnome / kde on either to your own tastes
[14:28] <Lektroluv> at school we use slackware
[14:29] <Lektroluv> so wich one should i chose
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: not used it myself but ive heard good things
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: try and see which you like
[14:29] <Lektroluv> ok thanks
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: if you hit up www.distrowatch.org
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: you will see the multitude of linux distros
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Lektroluv: there is more than ubuntu :D
[14:30] <snarkster> ALOT more
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> I persnoally like mandriva and gentoo
[14:32] <Tm_T> Kubuntu <3
[14:32] <Lektroluv> I' will just use it to learn more at command typing and programming
[14:33] <comedit> snarkster: i am back i wil check
[14:34] <comedit> snarkster: it starts
[14:35] <snarkster> so if you enter system settings in a terminal it works, but not from the launcher
[14:35] <snarkster> hmm right down the command and then edit it using just systemsettings
[14:36] <snarkster> i bought this awesome laptop and it has an intel video card in it... NONE of the game I wanna play work worth a crud
[14:36] <comedit> yes i will do
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: depends on the spec and what video card is
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: but onboard intel stuff usually sucks for games imho
[14:44] <snarkster> ah you want info.. let me get that for you
[14:44] <snarkster> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: lspci | grep -i vga
[14:45] <snarkster> no wonder i got such a smoking deal on this machine.. bah I should have paid the extra 200 for Nvidia
[14:49] <dereine> hi
[14:49] <dereine> is there a link to the kde4.2 sources?
[14:49] <snarkster> kde.org
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: http://math.dartmouth.edu/~sarunas/x60_intrepid.html
[14:51] <snarkster> thanx, but i dont have a thinkpad.. I have an Acer Aspire 6930
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: doesnt matter what its in, its a mobile 4 intel gfx chip
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: just look at the gfx section
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=946035
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: i think it will use the "intel" driver but you could also try the "i810" driver
[14:56] <genii> snarkster: Pleased say what: lspci -nn    says for that card. This gives us the vendor:device    code which can be useful in finding the driver
[14:57] <snarkster> here ya go: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a42] (rev 07)
[14:57] <snarkster> and it appears to be using the i915 driver.
[14:58] <snarkster> well thats what lsmod shows.
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: cool, should be ok then
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: what do you get from: glxinfo | grep -i direct
[14:59] <genii> Yes, i915 should be correct driver
[15:00] <snarkster> direct rendering: Yes
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: you have a score then
[15:00] <snarkster> yah me i scored.. LOL
[15:00] <snarkster> still wont play EVE,
[15:00] <snarkster> says I have a tugstun graphics card.
[15:02] <dresnu> hello, does anyone know what happened to kaffeine? After the latest update, which I saw that involved kaffeine, i don't seem to have a kaffeine executable even though its package is installed
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: is that via wine?
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=9971
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> snarkster: you need some extra config for EVE

[15:09] <dresnu> sorry but am I the only one having problems with kaffeine?
[15:09] <val_> finishes eith .tar
[15:10] <val_> file extension  .tar
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> val_: tar xvf <tar file>
[15:13] <genii> dresnu: You could try something like:  sudo apt-get install --reinstall kaffeine
[15:22] <v6lur> what package do i have to install to make qt4 apps (e.g. speedcrunch) look nice? (on hardy)
[15:22] <v6lur> they have awful gray "rectangles" for buttons now :(
[15:29] <snarkster> is there a kde app like photobooth

[15:31] <ActionParsnip> cuznt: lsb_release -a

[15:38]  * eutychus waves and head out the door...
[15:43] <DreadKnight> hello, i was wondering if wireless works in intrepid (kubuntu) atm
[15:44] <snarkster> yes works perfectly
[15:46] <DaSkreech> For some definition of perfect
[15:46] <DaSkreech> (not a defintion you find in books that give definitions)
[15:47] <stdin> it depends on your hardware/driver combo
[15:48] <DreadKnight> anyone having Plantronics Pulsar 590A or some similar bluetooth headphones? :D
[15:54] <snarkster> smoke break.. ttyl
[15:55] <Schubi_> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory <-- does someone know how to fix this?
[15:57] <maxo> does anyone know where amarok2 stores its config files?
[15:57] <stdin> ~/.amarok-nightly/
[15:58] <DaSkreech> Amarok 2 proper uses the nightly folder ?
[15:58] <maxo> I don't have that folder
[15:58] <stdin> what do you mean "proper"?
[15:59] <DaSkreech> stdin: The final release of Amarok 2
[15:59] <maxo> basically my issue is I'm trying to import all my amarok 1.4 settings and playlists into 2.0 but I don't know how to
[15:59] <DaSkreech> It's on http://kubuntu.org
[15:59] <DaSkreech> maxo: I doubt all your settings will carry over
[15:59] <stdin> DaSkreech: I guess it depends what we told it to use
[16:00] <mjobin> anyone here would be kind enough to build me this kate plugin ? http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Text-Editing-Processing/Filters/kate-treeview-plugin-37755.shtml
[16:01] <maxo> but the playlists in amarok 1.4 are just m3u files, surely they can be imported
[16:01] <maxo> and what about all my collection ratings?
[16:01] <stdin> it'll probably import your old setting from the KDE3 version
[16:02] <maxo> it hasn't imported any playlists
[16:02] <maxo> and I had a dynamic playlist that listed all rated tracks, and there doesn't seem to be a way of reproducing that
[16:03] <stdin> maxo: #amarok is the place to ask
[16:12] <eagles051387> i am having a super interesting issue with konqueror in intrepid i have been using apt-build to build my programs and optimize them for me but everything seems to work. im over at someones house using a wired connection and im unable to get access to gmail or even gogle sometimes
[16:12] <eagles051387> the connection keeps getting refused is this an issue on my end or on isp end
[16:12] <eagles051387> or is this iptables acting up
[16:19] <genii> eagles0513875: I'd suspect ISP if your connection at home works fine
[16:19] <eagles0513875> ok genii
[16:19] <genii> eagles0513875: Maybe try  release/renew IP
[16:19] <romain_> vous parlez francais ?
[16:19] <eagles0513875> genii:  how would i do that with ubuntu
[16:20] <genii> romain_:  /j #kubuntu-fr    or:    /j #ubuntu-fr
[16:20] <romain_> thank you
[16:20] <genii> eagles0513875: If adapter is eth0 for instance.     sudo dhclient -r eth0 && sudo dhclient eth0
[16:20] <genii> romain_: You're welcome
[16:21] <eagles0513875> genii:  whats funny is im on irc
[16:21] <eagles0513875> and i was able to get to yahoo
[16:23] <genii> eagles0513875: So is it saying "connection refused"  for particular sites or so?
[16:23] <eagles0513875> seems like gmail and google
[16:23] <stdin> are you in China? ;)
[16:24] <eagles0513875> me no
[16:24] <jennifer> hi, I am a newbie that needs to get my wireless card working with kubuntu 8.04
[16:24] <eagles0513875> !wireless
[16:24] <jennifer> can anyone help me?
[16:24] <eagles0513875> see above jen
[16:24] <jennifer> the forums are over my head
[16:24] <jennifer> I havent tried that one
[16:25] <jennifer> thank you
[16:25] <genii> eagles0513875: Hm. Might be data stored in your browser cache doesn't auth right if you are now on different external IP or so
[16:25] <genii> passwords, etc etc
[16:25] <eagles0513875> cleared it
[16:26] <genii> eagles0513875: No other ideas come immediately to mind
[16:27] <eagles0513875> O_o ok
[16:29] <eagles0513875> genii:  would restarting the netowrkign script help any
[16:30] <genii> eagles0513875: Probably not, but you could try it if it makes you feel better :)
[16:30] <eagles0513875> genii:  :)
[16:33] <eagles0513875> jennifer: did that help any
[16:34] <jennifer> Well, I have an air card and I think that might be different
[16:35] <eagles0513875> jennifer:  whose the manufacturer
[16:35] <jennifer> it works on cellular towers rather than wifi
[16:35] <eagles0513875> gotcha
[16:35] <eagles0513875> is this a pcmcia card
[16:35] <jennifer> well, its a Sprint  Merlin S620
[16:35] <eagles0513875> is it built in card or an external one that goes into your pcmcia slot
[16:36] <jennifer> pcmcia
[16:36] <eagles0513875> did you just insert the card cuz i had a similar problem with a normal wifi card
[16:36] <eagles0513875> would have to reboot with it in the slot already for it to work
[16:37] <jennifer> yes I just inserted it and my laptop doesnt even know its there
[16:37] <eagles0513875> jennifer:  then try a reboot
[16:37] <eagles0513875> and let me know if that does or doesnt do the trick
[16:37] <jennifer> ok, I will do it now then
[16:37] <jennifer> sure will
[16:37] <jennifer> thanks
[16:37] <eagles0513875> no prob thats what we are here for
[16:38] <eagles0513875> genii:  no google seems to work and i can search
[16:38] <eagles0513875> cant get to gmail though
[16:43] <Schubi_> can someone help me with my ati 1650pro AGP? :x
[16:44] <eagles0513875> Schubi_: just ask or put forward your issue and if someone knows they will help
[16:46] <bitripper> the controling in firefox is very very slow
[16:46] <Schubi_> i use the "ati" driver right now, if i edit my xorg.cong to use xglrx the screen freezes at the spash screen after i log in
[16:46] <bitripper>  entering text is very slow
[16:46] <bitripper>  i have to wait about 5 seconds to open the context menue with right click
[16:46] <Schubi_> http://nopaste.ch/5b5c1af129691ff.html <-- line 150
[16:46] <bitripper> switching between tabs takes very long
[16:47] <Schubi_> i already tried to use the driver from the amd hp and the one from adept but i failed at both :x
[16:48] <eagles0513875> Schubi_:  check jockey which will list any proprietary drivers for certain hardware
[16:48] <eagles0513875> !jockey
[16:49] <eagles0513875> !info jockey-kde
[16:51] <jennifer> haaaa, it worked
[16:52] <Schubi_> the ati driver is activated
[16:52] <jennifer> after the reboot, it asked me if I wanted to install the drivers for the card
[16:52] <jennifer> simple as that
[16:52] <bitripper> does anyone knows the problem with firefox3?
[16:53] <jennifer> I'm on the net in about 1 minute
[16:54] <jennifer> thank you
[16:56] <g-hennux> hi!
[16:56] <g-hennux> the kaffeine executable just disappeared from my kaffeine package...
[16:57] <g-hennux> kubuntu 8.10
[16:57] <g-hennux> why is that?
[16:58] <genii> g-hennux: : You could try something like:  sudo apt-get install --reinstall kaffeine
[16:58] <g-hennux> genii: i did, purged and reinstalled, the /usr/bin/kaffeine is simply not in that package any more, it seems
[16:59] <genii> g-hennux: Well, I'm not sure if kaffeine has been ported yet to kde4
[17:00] <g-hennux> genii: it worked until i just apt-get updated and dist-upgraded half an hour ago
[17:01] <g-hennux> genii: http://pastebin.com/d32069b00
[17:03] <g-hennux> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kaffeine/+bug/307175/+viewstatus

[17:10] <stiago13> apparentely im missing the libraries

[17:14] <eagles0513875> !patience | stiago13
[17:14] <stiago13> im sorry
[17:15] <eagles0513875> stiago13: its not you bro i dont know how or what you want to install is
[17:15] <eagles0513875> !info basketnotes
[17:15] <eagles0513875> !basketnotes
[17:16] <Elijah_Frost> Any good HTML editors/designers other than Quanta?
[17:16] <Elijah_Frost> For KDE ofc
[17:17] <Mamarok> eagles0513875: the package name is just basket
[17:17] <stiago13> sorry
[17:17] <stiago13> i might have acted pretty bad
[17:17] <stiago13> im new to linux
[17:17] <stiago13> im running kubuntu on my laptop
[17:18] <olimpico> Wow, I just made an "apt-get dist-upgrade" on my kubuntu 8.10, a new kernel was installed and required restart. Amazingly I get now while trying to boot: Kernel panic - not syncing: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[17:18] <stiago13> and i donwloaded this program called basketnotes
[17:18] <Mamarok> stiago13: no, you didn't act bad :)
[17:18] <stiago13> similar to microsoft onenote
[17:18] <eagles0513875> !info basket
[17:18] <stiago13> i reaseearched how to install it
[17:18] <eagles0513875> i gotta install that
[17:18] <stiago13> i ran the shell script
[17:18] <stiago13> but it said i was missing libraries
[17:18] <stiago13> so im pretty confused now
[17:18] <Mamarok> stiago13: the package name is basket, not basketnotes
[17:18] <eagles0513875> stiago13: how come you dont remove what u got and get the one out of the repository
[17:18] <olimpico> I can't believe this, something like that never happened to me before with Kubuntu
[17:19] <stiago13> can you teach the basics on installing applications in kubuntu
[17:19] <stiago13> i downloaded the pack from the website
[17:19] <Mamarok> olimpico: file a bug aginst that kernel, they must have made packaging errors
[17:19] <stiago13> and ran the shellscript
[17:19] <stiago13> but ya.. missing libraries
[17:19] <Mamarok> stiago13: basically, one does install packages from the repositories via a package manager
[17:19] <Mamarok> in Kubuntu you can either use "adept"
[17:19] <eagles0513875> its much easier then what you are trying to do
[17:20] <stiago13> could you guys teach me that?
[17:20] <stiago13> or tell me where i can find info on it
[17:20] <stiago13> either would be good
[17:20] <Mamarok> or type sudo apt-get install "packagename" in the command line
[17:20] <stiago13> im totally new to linux
[17:20] <eagles0513875> Mamarok: if you dont mind im gonna leave that in your hands cuz im busy at the moment
[17:20] <Mamarok> stiago13: read what I just posted
[17:20] <stiago13> oh ok
[17:20] <stiago13> i will try
[17:20] <stiago13> obviously i need internet connection ya?
[17:20] <Mamarok> stiago13: of course :)
[17:21] <Mamarok> stiago13: how did you install Kubuntu?
[17:21] <christ> morning
[17:21] <christ> can anybody see this? http://pastebin.com/m480c279
[17:21] <stiago13> i installed it in a partition off a livecd
[17:21] <stiago13> why?
[17:21] <stiago13> hey i tried that command line
[17:21] <stiago13> it said access denied, and asked if i was root :S
[17:22] <stiago13> then i replied yes
[17:22] <Mamarok> stiago13: you isntalled from a live CD in a free partition you mkean :)
[17:22] <stiago13> and it just printed a huge line of "y"s
[17:22] <Mamarok> *mean
[17:22] <stiago13> yup
[17:22] <Mamarok> stiago13: your "y" must be stuck :)
[17:22] <stiago13> :P
[17:23] <stiago13> anyway.. it said access denied when i tiped apt-get install basket
[17:23] <Mamarok> stiago13: you must type "sudo apt-get install basket"
[17:23] <stiago13> i did
[17:23] <Mamarok> the sudo command asks you then your password
[17:23] <stiago13> oh
[17:23] <stiago13> sudo
[17:23] <stiago13> ya ya
[17:23] <stiago13> sorry
[17:24] <stiago13> couldnt find package basket
[17:24] <stiago13> :/
[17:24] <eagles0513875> !info basket
[17:24] <Mamarok> stiago13: this means you don't have the necessary repository activated I guess
[17:24] <stiago13> and that means...
[17:24] <Mamarok> stiago13: what version of KDE do you use?
[17:25] <stiago13> latest
[17:25] <stiago13> that came with kubuntu 8.10
[17:25] <stiago13> 4.2 im guessing
[17:25] <Mamarok> ok, so KDE 4.1.3
[17:25] <stiago13> or that
[17:25] <Mamarok> stiago13: 4.2 is not released yet
[17:25] <stiago13> im sorry
[17:25] <Mamarok> stiago13: can you check if you have the adept package installed plz? Type sudo adept
[17:26] <stiago13> ok
[17:26] <stiago13> weird
[17:26] <stiago13> it opened up an application
[17:26] <stiago13> named adept
[17:26] <stiago13> however
[17:26] <Mamarok> stiago13: good :)
[17:26] <stiago13> on the konsole
[17:26] <stiago13> it showed lots of errors
[17:26] <Mamarok> that's what I wanted you to do, don't look at the konsole output
[17:27] <stiago13> error "random directory" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0
[17:27] <stiago13> just mentioning
[17:27] <Mamarok> stiago13: did you install another linux distro before Kubuntu?
[17:27] <stiago13> hmmm
[17:27] <stiago13> i got windows xp on half my partition
[17:27] <stiago13> and then installed kubuntu on the other half
[17:27] <Mamarok> stiago13: ok, never mind
[17:27] <Mamarok> go in the adept window
[17:28] <stiago13> one sec though
[17:28] <stiago13> what would those errors be?
[17:28] <stiago13> just so i understand
[17:28] <stiago13> if you dontmind
[17:28] <Mamarok> stiago13: don't look at the errors in the konsole, they are of no use to you, I assure you!
[17:28] <Mamarok> go to the adept window please
[17:28] <stiago13> nothing big?
[17:28] <stiago13> allrite
[17:28] <stiago13> sorry
[17:28] <stiago13> carry on please
[17:29] <Mamarok> you click on the blue glope on the top left
[17:29] <Mamarok> *globe
[17:29] <stiago13> sources?
[17:29] <stiago13> done
[17:29] <Mamarok> exactly
[17:29] <Mamarok> then click on "Edit Sofware Ssources"
[17:30] <Mamarok> Software even :)
[17:30] <stiago13> software even?
[17:30] <Mamarok> stiago13: just a typo
[17:31] <Mamarok> stiago13: did you click on the "Edit Software Sources" button in the middle?
[17:31] <stiago13> yup
[17:31] <Mamarok> ok, so now you can see which repositoreis are activated, you should have activated al except the source code button
[17:31] <stiago13> ya
[17:32] <Mamarok> so you have all four activated?
[17:32] <stiago13> yup
[17:32] <stiago13> should i change the download from
[17:32] <stiago13> it says server for china
[17:32] <Mamarok> are you based in CHina?
[17:32] <stiago13> atm yes
[17:32] <Mamarok> then leave it, so the server is closer than any others
[17:33] <stiago13> ok
[17:33] <Mamarok> close the window with the sources then, you have all the needed ones
[17:33] <stiago13> k
[17:33] <stiago13> wowow
[17:33] <stiago13> as soon as i closed
[17:34] <stiago13> a bunch of updates (i guess) started downloading
[17:34] <stiago13> on the adept window
[17:34] <Mamarok> stiago13: good
[17:34] <stiago13> almost done
[17:34] <Mamarok> stiago13: once this is finished, you can go to the search button on the left
[17:35] <stiago13> type basket?
[17:35] <Mamarok> exactly :)
[17:35] <stiago13> thanks a lot mamarok
[17:35] <stiago13> so it wont ask for libraries?
[17:35] <Mamarok> it should appear first in the list on the right side
[17:35] <Mamarok> stiago13: normally it will activate the needed dependencies
[17:36] <stiago13> good
[17:36] <stiago13> thanks a lot mamarok
[17:36] <stiago13> sorry for anything
[17:36] <stiago13> im in love with linux
[17:36] <Mamarok> stiago13: good :)
[17:36] <Mamarok> eagles0513875: what was it you disagreed with me?
[17:36] <eagles0513875> Mamarok:  you in offtopic
[17:37] <Mamarok> no
[17:37] <stiago13> nothing is showing up when i type basket
[17:37] <eagles0513875> can you hop in there please since i dont want to take this channel off topic
[17:37] <eagles0513875> !info basket
[17:37] <stiago13> and it finished loading
[17:38] <Mamarok> stiago13: try to go back to sources and update your files (button at the bottom of the window
[17:38]  * genii sips a coffee
[17:39] <stiago13> fetch current package lists?
[17:39] <Mamarok> stiago13: yes
[17:39] <genii> g-hennux: Looking at your pastebin, you used --purge with apt-get install instead of apt-get remove. Try only:  sudo apt-get install --reinstall kaffeine
[17:40] <stiago13> tsk.. nothing
[17:41] <Mamarok> stiago13: you might want to try another server then, eventually try the main server, but this might be slow, I don't know how your connection is
[17:41] <stiago13> pretty bad
[17:41] <stiago13> main server didnt give anything
[17:41] <stiago13> im tring us now
[17:42] <stiago13> trying*
[17:42] <genii> olimpico: You had it booting from something like a raid device or such?
[17:43] <Mamarok> stiago13: don't forget to update your pavkage list every time you change server
[17:43] <stiago13> ok
[17:43] <Mamarok> package list, sry
[17:43] <Mamarok> this might take some time, unfortunately
[17:43] <stiago13> indeed it is
[17:43] <olimpico> genii: not at all
[17:44] <olimpico> Thank God is only my old test Computer
[17:44] <Mamarok> stiago13: you are sure you have a hook for all the repositories except the ones for the source code?
[17:44] <eagles0513875> Mamarok:  i have basket downloading as we speak
[17:45] <olimpico> But is as standard computer, a bit old, but works fine in any other ditro that I have tried: PCLOS, GENTOO, DEBIAN, FREEBSD, etc
[17:45] <genii> olimpico: This sort of error happens usually in a couple instances. When the kernel doesn't have the module built in for the device you want to boot from usually
[17:45] <Mamarok> eagles0513875: does this help the other user?
[17:46] <stiago13> mamarok, i didnt understand you there
[17:46] <eagles0513875> trying to narrow down the issue Mamarok
[17:46] <genii> olimpico: Also if you changed hd order for instance
[17:46] <Mamarok> stiago13: in the sources list, you must have hooks in front of the first four (4) package repositoreies, e.g. main, universe, restricted, multiverse
[17:47] <Mamarok> well, you really need only the first two, but if you want proprietary codecs the other ones are needed too
[17:49] <stiago13> mamarok: i will check that once the updates are finished
[17:49] <stiago13> ok?
[17:49] <Mamarok> ok :)
[17:49] <eagles0513875> stiago13: and Mamarok thanks for headup about basket will be very useful in my lectures
[17:49] <eagles0513875> :)
[17:50] <luke_> How do I split a 4 GB ISO image into 5 RAR files on Ubuntu?
[17:51] <olskolirc> hey guys where is the widget for "show desktop" in kde4.2 beta please?
[17:51] <luke_> olskolirc: yes
[17:52] <stiago13> eagles: it should be a great program
[17:52] <stiago13> i used microsoft onenote in all classes in uni
[17:52] <stiago13> it is great to jot down stuff and ya
[17:52] <stiago13> basket looks very neat
[17:52] <Mamarok> olskolirc: it's called "dashboard"
[17:53] <TheFuzzball> Mamarok: No it's not.
[17:53] <eagles0513875> same here i have used onenote as well stiago13 i have it installed and took a look at it seems sweet
[17:53] <stiago13> :)
[17:53] <stiago13> glad you found it
[17:53] <stiago13> took me a while to find an equivalent
[17:53] <Mamarok> TheFuzzball: well, wich one is it then?
[17:54] <stiago13> it was the only ting holding me back from switching os
[17:54] <TheFuzzball> Mamarok: "Show Desktop"
[17:54] <stiago13> its just so useful
[17:54] <stiago13> but damn it
[17:54] <stiago13> it still doesnt show in my adept
[17:54] <olskolirc> I just want to put a show desktop icon by my Kmenu button Mamarok what its called and all that info I can't use without the where is it and how do I add it to my panel
[17:55] <Mamarok> olskolirc: right click on a free space on your desktop and choose "Install widget..."
[17:55] <Mamarok> scroll down, there you go
[17:56] <Mamarok> olskolirc: if it's not by default (me use kde-nightly), you can download it with the "GetHotNewStuff" button on the down left of that widget window
[17:57] <stiago13> you guys still have any idea what i could be?
[17:57] <Mamarok> stiago13: very strange, as it is in the universe repo, shows here
[17:57] <stiago13> yo rekon it has to do with those erros
[17:58] <stiago13> owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0
[17:58] <Mamarok> stiago13: that is indeed strange, you are sure you didn't have a rpm based distribution in use first?
[17:59] <olskolirc> wow Mamarok what kind of kde4 do you have?  I don't have a GetHotNewSTuff button or anything like that in my widgets or panel settings.  In kde4.1 show desktop was in widgets but not on 4.2
[17:59] <stiago13> i installed kubuntu before
[17:59] <olskolirc> I can't stand to have to minimize minimize minimize just to get to my f*n desktop!
[17:59] <olskolirc> any help?
[17:59] <stiago13> but i formatted the partition
[17:59] <Mamarok> as those do the user numbering differently form the apt based ones
[17:59] <Mamarok> olskolirc: if you only have installed KDE 4.2 beta, you might not have all the widgets
[18:00] <olskolirc> ok
[18:00] <Mamarok> olskolirc: in the "add widget"-winbdow, you have a button on the bottom left which allows you to download the missing buttons
[18:00] <olskolirc> ok
[18:02] <olimpico> genii: I don't change a thing, I use that computer just for testing
[18:02] <Mamarok> stiago13: well, that should not be a problem then, as the numbering doesn't change in Kubuntu
[18:02] <hyper_ch> huhu apachelogger
[18:02] <stiago13> :S
[18:02] <Mamarok> olskolirc: you do know that you can have more than one desktop, do you?
[18:02] <stiago13> im so dissapointed
[18:02] <olimpico> genii: I havent cahnge anything on that computer for years
[18:02] <stiago13> i was so hyped abt linux
[18:02] <olskolirc> i have 4 Mamarok
[18:02] <hyper_ch> stiago13: linux is disappointing
[18:02] <hyper_ch> stiago13: I suddenly have too much time to do work on my computer :(
[18:03] <Mamarok> stiago13: I understand, but have no idea why it doesn't show up
[18:03]  * Mamarok has 10 desktops...
[18:03] <stiago13> fair enough man
[18:03] <stiago13> you done great
[18:03] <stiago13> thanks a lot
[18:03] <genii> olimpico: Hmm. You upgraded from an earlier version?
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[18:03] <Mamarok> stiago13: you're welcome :)
[18:04] <eagles0513875> ActionParsnip: hop in offtopic i wanna tell u something
[18:04] <Mamarok> stiago13: still, I think it has to do with the repositories that do not activate
[18:04] <eagles0513875> stiago13: what happened
[18:04] <stiago13> the package basket just doesnt whoe up when i search it in adept
[18:04] <hyper_ch> stiago13: what the issue you have with it?
[18:04] <stiago13> show*
[18:04] <olimpico> genii: I installed Kubuntu 8.10 from the CD
[18:04] <eagles0513875> hyper_ch: hes trying to install basket
[18:05] <stiago13> hyper_ch: im trying to install a package called basket, and it wont show up when i search it on adept.
[18:05] <Wickk> how can I downgrade from KDE 4.2 back to 3?
[18:05] <hyper_ch> eagles0513875: and that is?
[18:05] <eagles0513875> msft onenote equivalent
[18:05] <stiago13> pretty much
[18:05] <eagles0513875> !info basket | hyper_ch
[18:05] <hyper_ch> Wickk: you can't "downgrade" but you can remove kde 4.2 and install kde 3.5.4
[18:05] <genii> olimpico: OK. I was thinking maybe it still was thinking hda hdb  and so on instead of new conventon of sda sdb
[18:05] <hyper_ch> stiago13: you know wht pastebin is?
[18:05] <stiago13> no sorry
[18:06] <eagles0513875> hyper_ch: hes brand new to linux cut him some slack
[18:06] <olimpico> genii: I updated some weeks ago without problems, but now I updated again and can't boot, I'll delete verything and install Xubuntu, I want to try it out. On my Desktop i have Kubuntu 8.04 running and I'm still very happy with it. I'll not update to 8.10 until it gets really stable.
[18:06] <stiago13> im fine with computers though
[18:06] <hyper_ch> !pastebin | stiago13
[18:06] <Wickk> hyper_ch: 'k is there a way I can do this while still in kde 4.2? I don't have gnome installed
[18:06] <Mamarok> eagles0513875: calm down, he tries to help!
[18:06] <eagles0513875> Mamarok:  i know
[18:06] <hyper_ch> stiago13: now run the following command and pastebin it:   cat /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:06] <hyper_ch> Wickk: your on hardy or intrepid?
[18:07] <Wickk> intrepid
[18:07] <stiago13> so i will run that in konsole?
[18:07] <olimpico> genii: Not at all, it's definitely a big error, they should test is more through before releasing kernels like that.
[18:07] <hyper_ch> stiago13: yes, it will give some output and that output you paste into pastebin
[18:07] <stiago13> k
[18:07] <hyper_ch> stiago13: when you do so, you will be given a new URL and then you post this URL in here :)
[18:08] <hyper_ch> Wickk: btw, you use KDE 4.2?
[18:08] <hyper_ch> Wickk: not 4.1.2?
[18:08] <stiago13> k
[18:08] <Wickk> hyper_ch: I'm not really sure I re-installed Kubuntu today and I think it said on the site it comes with the latest beta of KDE
[18:09] <hyper_ch> Wickk: the versions in the official repos are very seldomly the latest beta :) you'll have to add PPA repos to get lates KDE 4.2 (in which I have a small problem myself)
[18:09] <stiago13> paste.ubuntu.com/84458
[18:09] <Wickk> hyper_ch: ohh ok
[18:10] <stiago13> there u go hyper_ch
[18:10] <hyper_ch> Wickk: I don't see any kde 3.5 things in the repos anymore
[18:10] <Wickk> hyper_ch:
[18:10] <Wickk> hyper_ch: 'k I was just wondering cause this is more taxing on my hardware
[18:11] <joseh> am new to linux and i just messed it up
[18:11] <hyper_ch> joseh: this happens :)
[18:11] <joseh> i  cant see the task bar or start menu
[18:11] <Mamarok> Wickk: you might use kde-nightly then, uses less and is quite stable
[18:11] <hyper_ch> Wickk: oh well, if you are brave you might want to try kde 4.2
[18:12] <Wickk> K thanks, I'll check them both out
[18:12] <joseh> can some1 help me get it back? plz
[18:12] <hyper_ch> stiago13: what is lupaworld.com in your repositories? did you add that?
[18:12] <stiago13> i think i did
[18:12] <stiago13> i went to sources
[18:12] <stiago13> and i tried to use a server close here
[18:12] <hyper_ch> Wickk: http://www.kubuntu.org/node/58
[18:13] <hyper_ch> stiago13: ok :) that's all I needed to know
[18:13] <Wickk> hyper_ch: Thanks :)
[18:13] <eagles0513875> later all heading home
[18:13] <stiago13> see you eagles
[18:13] <joseh> plz some1 help me
[18:13] <stiago13> thank you for everything
[18:13] <hyper_ch> Wickk: as said, it gives me an error with Kontact that's unresolved yet
[18:14] <hyper_ch> stiago13: what's the output of:   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install basket
[18:14] <Wickk> hyper_ch: Ah, well I've never used it so I'll  brave it
[18:14] <stiago13> each one
[18:14] <stiago13> or i type that as one
[18:14] <hyper_ch> stiago13: that's just one :)
[18:14] <stiago13> ok
[18:15] <hyper_ch> stiago13: you can also type it individually
[18:15] <stiago13> if i type it as one
[18:15] <stiago13> it gives off
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> joseh: wassup
[18:15] <joseh> wassup action
[18:15] <stiago13> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Dec 13 08:20:53 2008
[18:15] <stiago13> lol
[18:15] <practor> hello people
[18:16] <practor> is there a quick way to figure out with package a file came from?
[18:16] <hyper_ch> practor: yes, there is
[18:16] <practor> some compilation screw up hosed my snd-hda-intel kernel module
[18:16] <hyper_ch> stiago13: hmmm.... did you change between Windows and Linux?
[18:16] <stiago13> wait
[18:16] <stiago13> i think its working
[18:16] <hyper_ch> practor: sudo apt-get install apt-file && sudo apt-file update
[18:16] <stiago13> i had to type my password
[18:16] <stiago13> i will send u the link
[18:17] <hyper_ch> practor: then you can search for a file with:  apt-file search KEYWORD
[18:17] <practor> ah groovy, thanks for that!
[18:17] <hyper_ch> apt-file will download the files from the repos and you can search it then
[18:17] <practor> i'll read up on all that apt goodness.  thanks for pointing me in the right direction hyper_ch.
[18:17] <hyper_ch> practor: you can even search for the full path
[18:18] <hyper_ch> no private queries :)
[18:18] <stiago13> hyper_ch: paste.ubuntu.com/84462
[18:18] <hyper_ch> and no, I'm not good with linux, I just pretend to be
[18:18] <hyper_ch> stiago13: I see the problem :)
[18:18] <ibuffy> what's with the taskbark icon being in a window?
[18:19] <stiago13> i think i love you
[18:19] <hyper_ch> stiago13: select a different mirror in Synaptic
[18:19] <hyper_ch> stiago13: or adept
[18:19] <fehrp> hi
[18:19] <stiago13> what you mean
[18:19] <stiago13> from the us or someting?
[18:19] <Mamarok> stiago13: you still have adept open I guess!
[18:19] <ibuffy> system tray icon*
[18:19] <hyper_ch> stiago13: or outside the use
[18:19] <fehrp> how does bluetooth work in KDE 4? there seems to be an application kdebluetooth4, but it won't start up
[18:19] <stiago13> a i do
[18:19] <hyper_ch> generally: the closer a mirror the faster
[18:19] <hyper_ch> BUT not alwasys
[18:20] <hyper_ch> stiago13: e.g. a mirror has "only" a 10mbit upline.... and another mirror in a different country has a 1000mbit upline... then guess which one is faster ;)
[18:20] <stiago13> can i click find best server?
[18:20] <hyper_ch> I normally use the official country mirrors
[18:20] <stiago13> :)
[18:20] <hyper_ch> but you can try to find the best
[18:20] <Mamarok> !bluetooth | fehrp
[18:20] <stiago13> how do i do that
[18:20] <stiago13> if i click in a country it doesnt allow me to click ok
[18:20] <hyper_ch> stiago13: the problem is, lupaworld is currently down (or not reachable)...
[18:20] <stiago13> i have to choose a mirror in that country
[18:21] <fehrp> mamarok thx
[18:21] <Mamarok> :)
[18:21] <hyper_ch> stiago13: there could be many reasons for that... but because of that you can't update the package list and neither fetch any software from there
[18:21] <stiago13> i tried an american server though
[18:21] <stiago13> and it also didnt work
[18:22] <fehrp> Mamarok: that page suggerates, that it would work out of the box later than 7.10 but it does not.
[18:22] <Mamarok> stiago13: you are in china, aren't you? you might try an Australian server then
[18:22] <hyper_ch> stiago13: kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:22] <stiago13> im just trying a taiwanese one
[18:23] <stiago13> just a sec hyper_ch its updating in adept
[18:23] <Mamarok> fehrp: well, there was a release note about bluetooth not working in Kubuntu 8.10, might still be a problem then
[18:23] <hyper_ch> stiago13: ok :)
[18:23] <hyper_ch> stiago13: I would have given you my sources.list then
[18:23] <hyper_ch> stiago13: (with a few edits out of it)
[18:24] <Mamarok> fehrp: as Intrepid uses kde 4.1.3, this could indeed still be an issue
[18:25] <hyper_ch> fehrp: if you are brave enough you could try kde 4.2 (but it has certain bugs) but bluetooth might work better there
[18:25] <olskolirc> I can't find how I can download more widgets in kde4.2.  I see no options no where to get that done
[18:26] <ibuffy> okay, this is annoying
[18:26] <Mamarok> olskolirc: hm, I was able to download additional widgets with that button
[18:26] <ibuffy> it seems every app that uses the system tray places the icon in a seperate window
[18:26] <ibuffy> kde 4.1
[18:26] <ibuffy> it hasn't been doing this though...
[18:27] <stiago13> hyper_ch, what should i do now?
[18:27] <Mamarok> olskolirc: you can go diretly to kde.apps.org to get them
[18:27] <kniolet> ibuffy: i have seen kde do that sometimes since kde3 for no abvious reason
[18:27] <hyper_ch> stiago13: run:  sudo apt-get install basket
[18:27] <hyper_ch> stiago13: and post the output here
[18:27] <olskolirc> ok Mamarok
[18:27] <kniolet> ibuffy: usually a reboot fixes it though for me
[18:27] <hyper_ch> stiago13: the terminal is good for debugging if something doesn't work ;)
[18:27] <ibuffy> ah
[18:28] <stiago13> hyper_ch
[18:29] <stiago13> i just decided to make use of a good old microsoft windows technique
[18:29] <stiago13> and just close everything
[18:29] <stiago13> and open it up again
[18:29] <stiago13> and guess what
[18:29] <stiago13> its DOWNLOADING
[18:29] <stiago13> and at some good speed as well
[18:29] <hyper_ch> stiago13: btw, you can have only one software manager active
[18:29] <stiago13> whats that supposed to mean
[18:29] <hyper_ch> stiago13: if you run adept, you can't install from the command line
[18:30] <stiago13> ok
[18:30] <hyper_ch> stiago13: if you run synaptic you can't also use adept
[18:30] <stiago13> im installing from command
[18:30] <stiago13> is that ok
[18:30] <hyper_ch> etc :)
[18:30] <hyper_ch> stiago13: command line rocks
[18:30] <stiago13> whats the difference between synpatic and adept
[18:30] <hyper_ch> stiago13: if you ever re-setup the computer, make a note of your favourite programs, and then issue one command to auto-download and auto-install ;)
[18:30] <hyper_ch> stiago13: adept is made for kde, synaptic for gnome
[18:31] <stiago13> ok thanks
[18:31] <stiago13> do u use kde or gnome
[18:31] <stiago13> kubuntu or ubuntu
[18:31] <hyper_ch> stiago13: besides that, they provide different interfaces.. I think adept has different categories
[18:31] <Mamarok> stiago13: this is the kubuntu channel, so you can guess :)
[18:31] <stiago13> oh crap
[18:31] <stiago13> im so tired
[18:31] <hyper_ch> stiago13: well, have a guess at what I use
[18:31] <stiago13> its 2:30 am here
[18:31] <hyper_ch> stiago13: (and before I mentioned a few issues with kde 4.2)
[18:31] <stiago13> i was just pissed about this thing
[18:32] <Mamarok> wow, stiago13, you need rest!
[18:32] <stiago13> mamarok!
[18:32] <stiago13> basket is working
[18:32] <stiago13> :D:D:D:D
[18:32] <Mamarok> great!
[18:32] <stiago13> thank you all
[18:32] <stiago13> hyper_ch
[18:32] <stiago13> mamarok
[18:32] <Mamarok> :)
[18:32] <stiago13> do u know if that webcam program cheese works in kde?
[18:33]  * Mamarok doesn't know cheese
[18:33] <hyper_ch> stiago13: and you probably want to install also:   sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extra
[18:33] <ibuffy> thanks kniolet. can't believe that worked
[18:33] <hyper_ch> stiago13: and possibly you also want to add the medibuntu repos ;)
[18:33] <hyper_ch> what does cheese do?
[18:33] <ibuffy> now to get firefox looking like the rest of me apps
[18:33] <stiago13> its like apple's photobooth
[18:33] <stiago13> and whatis that kubuntu-restricted-extra?
[18:33] <hyper_ch> and what's apple's photobooth?
[18:33] <Mamarok> stiago13: try digikam then
[18:33] <stiago13> webcam effects
[18:34] <hyper_ch> stiago13: ah... no clue :)
[18:34] <stiago13> ya
[18:34] <stiago13> downloading from command line is good
[18:34] <hyper_ch> stiago13: I'm exciting enough... I don't need additional effects ;)
[18:34] <stiago13> adept doesnt show any results still
[18:34] <ibuffy> i installed gtk-qt-engine-kde4 but searching in system settings for "gtk" shows nothing
[18:34] <stiago13> why would that be
[18:34] <hyper_ch> ibuffy: sudo updatedb
[18:35] <hyper_ch> ibuffy: and then search the system with "locate"
[18:35] <hyper_ch> ibuffy: or use "find"
[18:35] <hyper_ch> stiago13: you're downloading cheese or digikam?
[18:35] <ibuffy> hyper_ch: how would that help kde system settings?
[18:35] <Mamarok> stiago13: no idea, did you maximize the screen? it might simply be lower in the window now it's installed
[18:35] <ibuffy> this is my last gripe, i promise.
[18:35] <hyper_ch> ibuffy: oh... system settings... I read "but searching the system shows nothing"
[18:36] <ibuffy> hyper_ch: gotcha
[18:36] <hyper_ch> ibuffy: well, why should gtk appear in kde system settings?
[18:36] <ibuffy> hyper_ch: it's for the gtk/qt fix. it usually is there
[18:36] <stiago13> still doesnt show anything :(
[18:36] <stiago13> btw hyper_ch what was: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extra
[18:36] <hyper_ch> ibuffy: no clue
[18:36] <ibuffy> this is a niglty build and everything is running great except for firefox not being themed properly
[18:37] <Kovert> KDE 4.3.1 a lot of the new applets dont work SHoudl I wait or install something I missed?
[18:37] <hyper_ch> stiago13: that will install a first batch of codecs and stuff that you might be used to to have from windows/mac
[18:37] <olskolirc> Well I don't see where the heck I can install showdesktop
[18:38] <hyper_ch> stiago13: thsoe codecs are not installed by default because of different licencing policies in different countries...
[18:38] <stiago13> im still pissed abt adept not working
[18:38] <olskolirc> id like my task bar to be in classic view as well
[18:38] <stiago13> but oh well
[18:38] <stiago13> im off to bed
[18:38] <ibuffy> this nightly build is running a lot smoother (read: faster and just as stable) than my stable version
[18:38] <olskolirc> Id also like to put a divider between my quick launch and my taskbar
[18:38] <stiago13> !info grub2
[18:38] <Mamarok> ibuffy: it's not available in kde-nightly at the moment, doesn't show here neither (in system settings -appearance
[18:38] <Mamarok> )
[18:38] <lovre> what is alternative to Ark? It is not integrated with dolphin, so i want to try something else, possibli with a nice GUI?
[18:39] <ibuffy> Mamarok: darn.
[18:40] <Mamarok> ibuffy: don't expect too much from svn neither, sometimes things break
[18:41] <hyper_ch> lovre: how about the command line?
[18:41] <hyper_ch> lovre: that one has a nice gui :)
[18:41] <ibuffy> oh well, one app that doesn't look so swell. no biggy
[18:42] <Guest28800> hey.. can anyone point me to a help guide for audio drivers? I just installed kubuntu 8.10 and I have no audio drivers..
[18:43] <Mamarok> lovre: if you right click on the package, you can choose "Open with Ark", no?
[18:43] <lovre> Mamarok: no, i cant
[18:43] <lovre> Mamarok: its not integrated for some reason.
[18:43] <Mamarok> lovre: what version of KDE are you using?
[18:43] <Kovert> !alsaconfig
[18:43] <Mamarok> it works here since 4.1.3
[18:43] <Kovert> !alsa
[18:44] <Kovert> !battery
[18:44] <Kovert> me either! :-(
[18:44] <hyper_ch> Guest28800: if your audio doesn't work out of the box then it's normally to get difficult
[18:44] <Guest28800> :/
[18:44] <hyper_ch> !alsa | Guest28800
[18:44] <Mamarok> Guest28800: you have phonon and the xine package installed?
[18:45] <Guest28800> Ill check.. standard 8.10 so far nothing special
[18:45] <lovre> Mamarok: 4.1
[18:45] <Mamarok> lovre: 4.1.0? that's old....
[18:45] <lovre> :o
[18:46] <etz> hello
[18:46] <Guest28800> Mamarok: yeah have phonon but xine is not available apparently
[18:46] <paolo> Hi. some days ago the audio stopped working... without a reason that I can understand. I don't know what can I do, in order to solve the problem... what do you suggest ?
[18:46] <hyper_ch> Mamarok: as old as you?
[18:46] <Mamarok> hyper_ch: I'm very young in mind :)
[18:46] <hyper_ch> paolo: turning on the speakers would be my first thought
[18:47] <paolo> hyper_ch: already done
[18:47] <Mamarok> Guest28800: you must install it then
[18:47] <hyper_ch> paolo: second thought would be to ask the experts
[18:47] <Mamarok> !xine
[18:47] <hyper_ch> paolo: (also known as geeks)
[18:47] <paolo> hyper_ch: wehre ?
[18:48] <hyper_ch> paolo: I guess in here is a good place to start... did you try with some other OS to verify that soundcard and speakers still work?
[18:48] <paolo> hyper_ch: tried with another OS and they work
[18:48] <Guest28800> Mamarok: which package is xine? .. "xine" won't install, but there's also xine-plugin and others
[18:49] <Guest28800> Mamarok: adept doesn't show a pure xine package either
[18:49] <davide> synaptic?
[18:50] <hyper_ch> paolo: hmmm.... you have no sound at all?
[18:50] <paolo> hyper_ch: yes
[18:50] <lovre> Mamarok: you suggest updating? isnt 4.2 in beta?
[18:50] <Mamarok> Guest28800: try libxine1
[18:50] <hyper_ch> paolo: no clue really
[18:50] <hyper_ch> lovre: 4.2 is beta
[18:50] <Mamarok> lovre: not to beta, but to 4.1.3
[18:51] <Mamarok> lovre: I had Ark working with Dolphin in 4.1.3, and it does work in kde-nightly (of course)
[18:53] <Guest28800> Mamarok: looks like I have libxine.. I also added libxine-all-plugins now.. amarok says no xine engine was found tho
[18:53] <HappySmileMan> Just got "The trash has reached it's maximum size. Clean up the trash manually"...
[18:53] <Guest28800> Mamarok: amarok says "xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers"
[18:53] <kniolet> ibuffy: np :-) glad it worked
[18:53] <HappySmileMan> Any reason it can't just delete stuff automagically?
[18:53] <stiago13> im off guys
[18:53] <stiago13> see you soon
[18:53] <Mamarok> Guest28800: you must select xine as the phonon backend
[18:54] <Mamarok> HappySmileMan: right click on the Trash shows you an option to empty it
[18:54] <lovre> Mamarok: how to upgrade?
[18:54] <Mamarok> lovre: you must activate the ppa repositories for thath, moment
[18:54] <Guest28800> Mamarok: engine in amarok is set to xine, but it cannot load audio drivers
[18:55] <Mamarok> Guest28800: you have alsa running?
[18:56] <HappySmileMan> Ah ty Mamarok
[18:56] <Mamarok> HappySmileMan: np :)
[18:56] <Guest28800> Mamarok: I just ran sudo alsa reload now.. same situation
[18:56] <Mamarok> Guest28800: you should follow the steps for sound troubleshooting in the links you have been given earlier
[18:57] <Mamarok> like testing your sound card, etc.
[18:57] <Guest28800> Mamarok: okay I'll go through them
[18:58] <Mamarok> lovre: add the following repositories to your sources.list:
[18:58] <Mamarok> deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu/ intrepid main universe
[18:58] <Mamarok> lovre: there you will have kde 4.1.3
[18:59] <ibuffy> hmm, i take that back, inkscape is affected, like most other non-qt apps i suppose. hmm, i should bark at someone about this
[18:59] <lovre> Mamarok: ok, ty
[18:59] <Mamarok> lovre: np :)
[19:00] <Mamarok> ibuffy: Mozilla is working on a Qt-firefox
[19:01] <lovre> Mamarok: hmm, i added that, and new upgrade only shows libpcre3, that is not it... :?
[19:01] <Mamarok> lovre: if you check your kde4 version, you sure it says 4.1.0?
[19:02] <lovre> Mamarok: ooops? its 4.1.3, but how??? it was 4.1 last time i checked
[19:02] <Mamarok> lovre: you sure you have Ark installed, are you?
[19:03] <lovre> Mamarok: yes, ofcourse
[19:04] <lovre> Mamarok: seems its known problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdeutils/+bug/206139
[19:04] <Mamarok> strange, I'm sure it always worked here with dolphin, and it definitely does work in kde-nightly
[19:06] <lovre> Mamarok: what about Karchiver? any good?
[19:06] <Mamarok> never used it
[19:06] <Kovert> KDE 4.3.1 a lot of the new applets dont work SHoudl I wait or install something I missed?
[19:07] <Mamarok> but I mostly use command line for such tasks anyway, much faster
[19:07] <Captain_Haddock> 4.3.1?
[19:07] <Mamarok> Kovert: you from the future?
[19:07] <Kovert> isnt that the beta?
[19:07] <Captain_Haddock> anybody else having issues with Samba and long filenames in 8.10?
[19:07] <Captain_Haddock> (upgraded install)
[19:08] <Captain_Haddock> Kovert: that's 4.2 b1
[19:08] <Kovert> sorry
[19:08] <Kovert> ok
[19:08] <Kovert> KDE 4.2 beta1 a lot of the new applets dont work SHoudl I wait or install something I missed?
[19:08] <Mamarok> Kovert: you might want to try kde-nightly
[19:09] <Captain_Haddock> !samba
[19:09] <Kovert> Mamarok: how?
[19:09] <Mamarok> Kovert: you must add a source to your sources.list, moment
[19:09] <Kovert> Mamarok: thanks in advance
[19:10] <Mamarok> Kovert: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/project-neon/ubuntu/ intrepid main
[19:10] <Mamarok> Kovert: then install all the kde-nightly packages
[19:11] <Kovert> Mamarok: thanks
[19:11] <Mamarok> Kovert: np :)
[19:13] <lovre> Mamarok: i installed KArchiver, and it too is not integrated in dolphin..
[19:14] <Mamarok> lovre: well, as I said, I use the command line for packgin/unpacking, it's ways faster
[19:14] <Mamarok> lovre: but Ark works in Dolphin in the nightly packages
[19:14] <lodi> I have installed kubuntu on an ee pc
[19:15] <lodi> and now, after I reconnected physically my wlan router
[19:15] <Kovert> !eee ubuntu
[19:15] <lodi> I instaled kubuntu
[19:16] <lovre> Mamarok: what it nightly?
[19:16] <lodi> is vthere a specific ubuntu version for eee Pc?
[19:16] <lodi> anyway
[19:16] <hyper_ch> lodi: eeebuntu
[19:16] <Kovert> why didnt I think of that?
[19:16] <Mamarok> lovre: the kde-nightly packages will install locally, so you can use the latest snapshots of kde 4.2
[19:16] <lodi> I always used to be able to connect to my wifi network in my house
[19:17] <lodi> with no problem, just open kwallet
[19:17] <lovre> Mamarok: since 4.2 is in beta, i suppose i will bring more trouble, so not for now.
[19:17] <lodi> for the wep key
[19:17] <Mamarok> lovre: once installed, you just log out and choose a different session: kde-nightly (Neon)
[19:17] <lodi> and it worked
[19:17] <lodi> now I couldnt see my wifi net at all
[19:17] <Mamarok> lovre: it will not change your current installation, and works very well here :)
[19:17] <lodi> only to hosted by neighbours
[19:17] <lodi> two that is
[19:18] <Mamarok> lovre: else, use Ark from the menu or wait till end of January when KDE 4.2 will be released
[19:18] <Kovert> lodi use wicd
[19:18] <Kovert> !wicd
[19:18] <lodi> and then I decided to set the connection variables manually
[19:18] <hyper_ch> wicd is nice
[19:19] <lodi> and seem unable to reset the network settings to what they were
[19:19] <lodi> everytime I think I have done it
[19:19] <lodi> i get a 169.254 ip
[19:20] <lovre> Mamarok: i will wait for 4.2 to be released. thank you
[19:20] <Mamarok> lodi: please read back, you have got answers!
[19:20] <lodi> but  i will start checking out wicd
[19:20] <Kovert> lodi: pay attention wicd
[19:20] <lodi> thanks for those.
[19:20] <lodi> its just that i had to air my irritation
[19:20] <lodi> wicd it is
[19:21] <Kovert> there is a way of adding the repositry for wicd
[19:21] <ibuffy> right, so i instlaled firefoxqt3, but it still doesn't blend with oxygen.  guess i will wait awhile
[19:21] <lodi> tell me kovert?
[19:22] <hyper_ch> lodi: google for wicd
[19:23] <hyper_ch> that should lead you directly to it
[19:23] <ibuffy> i take that back, it works
[19:24] <ibuffy> but it needs quite a lot of work done to it
[19:26] <garryski> hello peaole!
[19:37] <Lektroluv> When I run this command $kate main.cpp & I get following message: cant't determine DISPLAY. Aborted
[19:38] <Lektroluv> When I run $kate
[19:38] <Lektroluv> kate runs
[19:40] <Mamarok> Lektroluv: no idea what this command is for, sry, could you explain what you want to do?
[19:42] <wallabee> hi all .. i have java 6.0 and 5.0 installed from adept and the 5.0 and 6.0 plugins installed from adept.. my firefox used to cresh before these were installed but now i get applet windows without crashing but java still not working properly can anyone tell me if i need some extra lib's installed or what may fix this issue
[19:45] <wallabee> even a link would be helpful at this point ive tried installing the wrapper from adept as well but havent had any success..
[19:45] <Mamarok> wallabee: what is your kde version?
[19:45] <Kovert> Mamarok: Time to restart Xserve and see the plazmoids dance
[19:46] <Mamarok> Kovert: hafe fun :)
[19:46] <Kovert> Oh I won't :-(
[19:47] <wallabee> its kde 4 but not sure how to tell if its 4.1 or 4.2
[19:48] <Mamarok> wallabee: go to the about section of any app, check about KDE
[19:50] <Mamarok> !firefox
[19:50] <Mamarok> !java
[19:50] <wallabee> Mamarok: its says 3.5.10 in konverstation but when i start up it says kde 4.1
[19:50] <Mamarok> hm, Dapper :)
[19:51] <Mamarok> because konversation is a KDE3 app :)
[19:51] <Mamarok> kde 4.1.0?
[19:51] <Mamarok> open a kde4 app like dolphin to check
[19:52] <wallabee> Mamarok: 4.1.3 in Dolphin
[19:53] <Mamarok> wallabee: hm, I abandoned Firefox because it crashed too much, but it's not so much a java than a Flash issue I guess
[19:53] <wallabee> should i uninstall java packages from adept?
[19:54] <Mamarok> wallabee: hm, if you don't need them
[19:54] <wallabee> how can i install them from the multiverse repo? and its more a flash issue for me>
[19:54] <Mamarok> but why did you install java 5 and 6?
[19:54] <wallabee> ?
[19:55] <Mamarok> you must activate the multiverse repositories, edit your sources in Adept
[19:56] <wallabee> i just want to be able to use java functionality in the browsers i have the firefox plugins but it would crash then installing 5 and 6 and plugins from adept i get applet windows without crashing
[19:56] <Mamarok> wallabee: you are not using Dapper, read the line correctly :)
[19:56] <[Relic[> if I had known kde4 was so screwed up I would have never upgraded
[19:56] <Mamarok> yes, but you only need one of them, not both versions
[19:56] <Mamarok> [Relic[: go back to kde3 then
[19:57] <Mamarok> [Relic[: one should *never* upgrade a running system without reading release notes anyway
[19:57] <reenignEesreveR> i just upgraded my distro and the x serv got screwed up. I did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and it fixed it but now the screen is silghtly out of sync from my LCD's display area. What to do?
[19:57] <wallabee> So just install 6 from multiverse and give it a shot?
[19:57] <Mamarok> wallabee: I'd say so, yes
[19:57] <wallabee> if im not supposed to use adept then what do i use?
[19:58] <wallabee> dpkg or syntaptic?
[19:58] <Mamarok> [Relic[: update to kde 4.1.3, latest stable
[19:58] <Mamarok> and its *not* screwed up, but you should definitely read the release notes
[19:59]  * Mamarok is afk
[19:59] <[Relic[> Mamarok: I need to get a menu bar first since it ate that while I was trying to get rid of something else
[19:59] <[Relic[> faq is not connecting
[20:00] <lodi> i have installed and tested wicd
[20:00] <lodi> works beautifully
[20:00] <lodi> still cant see my own wireless network tough
[20:00] <lodi> though
[20:00] <wallabee> Well ill try just installing 6 and see from multiverse and report back

[20:09] <robin_> I am trying to install KUBUNTU 8.1, but it hangs every-time around 82% - 84%. I did a CD check and it was succesfull.
[20:10] <reenignEesreveR> :(
[20:15] <arussel> using kde4.1 on kubuntu, each radio stream I am trying to play on amarok, I get: error loading media
[20:16] <Scratching> hi, please could someone help me. i don't know how can i compile this program : http://garr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/vmpk/vmpk-0.2.3.tar.bz2 (i found the link there http://www.qt-apps.org/content/show.php/Virtual+MIDI+Piano+Keyboard?content=88233) there is no configure file is the archive
[20:16] <arussel> Scratching: a Makefile ?
[20:16] <Scratching> there is no either
[20:17] <eagles0513875> knetworkmanager is broken
[20:17] <Scratching> actually it's a Qt project so i think i just have to do qmake
[20:18] <Scratching> hm .. there is an error in the source, is that possible ? src/about.cpp:24: error: ‘VERSION’ was not declared in this scope
[20:20] <hyper_ch> eagles0513875: I'd use wicd
[20:21] <arussel> is it possible to use amarok on amd64 to listen to radio ?
[20:21] <llutz> !factoids
[20:28] <arussel> the error is "there is no available decoder", what package could I look for ?
[20:29] <HappySmileMan> Probably kubuntu-restricted-extras
[20:29] <HappySmileMan> That contains most media codecs
[20:30] <Lektroluv> Mamarok: this command opens main.cpp in kate
[20:30] <arussel> I was looking for codec, decoder and even marillat but not extras :-)
[20:32] <Omoikane_> For some reason firefox has lost it's title bar and it keeps flashing when I right click on a link.
[20:32] <Lektroluv> When I run this command $kate main.cpp & I get following message: cant't determine DISPLAY. Aborted
[20:33] <eagles0513875> hyper_ch i normally use knetwork and it works :(
[20:34] <arussel> HappySmileMan: it is working, thanks for your help
[20:35] <HappySmileMan> np
[20:44] <gaelan> can someone direct me to instructions for restoring default audio settings in KDE 4? i had Ubuntu but did a full switch to KDE and removed Gnome, but i think i've mixed the sound programs...
[20:44] <gaelan> like i have pulseaudio installed
[20:44] <gaelan> or just a document explaining what the default KDE sound system is
[20:50] <sajid> hi
[20:51] <BluesKaj> gaelan, use alsa , if it's installed then do alsa mixer in the terminal . Make sure the Master, PCM, Line & CD are all unmuted ,by using the "M" key, then make sure the vol ctrls are at 70% or so by using the arrow up& down keys.
[20:51] <BluesKaj> err alsamixer
[20:52] <gaelan> ok, i'll check all that
[20:52] <gaelan> should pulseaudio be removed?
[20:52] <gaelan> right now the problem seems to be that it's unable to play simultaneous sound
[20:54] <BluesKaj> pulse-audio is an optin , no need to remove it
[20:54] <Mamarok> Lektroluv: what I don't understand is the string preceeding your command
[20:55] <BluesKaj> gaelan, are you on intrepid?
[20:55] <gaelan> yes, i installed ubuntu 8.10
[20:55] <gaelan> but decided to switch to kubuntu, so i just did a complete install of the kde desktop
[20:55] <BluesKaj> ok
[20:56] <gaelan> and removed gnome
[20:56] <gaelan> BluesKaj, i get this error with alsamixer: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
[20:57] <BluesKaj> sudo apt-get install alsa
[20:59] <fabio> hi all
[20:59] <gaelan> it was already installed, so i removed it and reinstalled, same error
[20:59] <fabio> problems with strigi and nepomuk integration
[20:59] <fabio> the error is
[20:59] <fabio> Failed to contact Strigi indexer (The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstrigiservice was not provided by any .service files)
[21:00] <fabio> any help?
[21:00] <BluesKaj> gaelan, do you still have synaptic ? if so use it to install alsa ,,, it does the dependencies better than adept/apt
[21:01] <BluesKaj> if not install synaptic
[21:02] <gaelan> ok, i'll do that
[21:05] <fabio> noone has a folderview plasmoid with nepomuksearch?
[21:05] <mjobin> anyone found a way to have active border between monitors in a twinhead setup ?
[21:05] <fabio> it's third day I post here this question..is there a more appropriate irc channel?
[21:07] <mjobin> fabio: there is not so many plasmoid yet. does it exist already? i dont think there is any irc channel on which you can find new plasmoid yet
[21:07] <mjobin> I would check kde-apps or kde-look websites
[21:07] <fabio> plasmaoid is folderview. shipped with kde4.1
[21:08] <fabio> problem is the error with nepomok and strigi
[21:08] <mjobin> have you tried 4.2 beta?
[21:09] <fabio> yes. Working with it.
[21:09] <fabio> with 4.1 workd.
[21:09] <fabio> I have the packages of 4.2beta shipped by kubuntu-members repository
[21:10] <[Relic]> is there anyway of getting the taskbar to the bottom of the screen?  everytime I try to resize the panel it won't let me adjust the top so I can't just drag it down
[21:10] <mjobin> ok, so it was working in 4.1 and it does not work anymore in 4.2 ?
[21:11] <fabio> in kde 4.1 strigi was running fine...
[21:12] <gaelan> BluesKaj, still giving the same error.. is there a settings file i should manually delete somewhere? or better to post of the forums?
[21:12] <fabio> I explain myself better:
[21:12] <fabio> nepomuk desktop integration worked
[21:12] <fabio> and strigi was running without errors
[21:13] <Lektroluv> Mamarok: the & at the end of the line works in Slackware, so I get a new command line after hitting return. If I dont put the & there I get a new commandline when I close kate
[21:13] <Lektroluv> either way it doesnt make a difference using the & or not
[21:14] <fabio> Ok...time to go away...maybe nepomuk and strigi are too experimental for kde4. I will signal this to my friends..
[21:14] <Lektroluv> Anyone experience in setting up a connection to a server with cvs and ssh?
[21:15] <Astrator> irc://efnet/%23HATRED
[21:15] <fabio> and wait until it's fixed. Community does a great job.
[21:15] <fabio> bye all!
[21:18] <Astrator> was set by sir!burnout@dead.israel.li on Topic for #HATRED is “fuck you.”
[21:20] <Lektroluv> nobody uses CVS?
[21:20] <coreymon77> what the heck was that about

[21:51] <benbloom> whats a good way to take a slice of a mkv file without reencoding it? I was gonna use kdenlive but it doesn't accept mkv
[21:51] <jennifer> yeah but i dont see a connetion manager like i did with windows
[21:51] <jennifer> i just got linux on my computer
[21:52] <jennifer> today
[21:52] <mrksbrd> you won't
[21:52] <BluesKaj> cheat, in some cases (dunno why) a reboot is required but I would check adept for the intel drivers , to see if your soundcard is listed
[21:52] <mrksbrd> after connection it will minimize
[21:52] <jennifer> thanks for the help and i have another question
[21:53] <jennifer> i have all my files and such backed up in an bkf file and is there anyway for me to open that file in linux
[21:53] <mrksbrd> as long as it didn't pop up an error after hitting connect u should be good to go
[21:53] <jennifer> it just disconnected
[21:53] <cheat> BluesKaj: thank you... meanwhile, i am reading this tutorial http://thio4linux.wordpress.com/2007/10/06/intel-hda-intel-corporation-82801g/

[21:56] <jennifer> i backed up everything off my computer; music, pictures, program files
[21:56] <jennifer> everything
[21:56] <Mamarok> [Relic]: you should try and add a second taskbar that will go to the bottom, then you can remove the one on top
[21:56] <jennifer> now the internet died out
[21:57] <mrksbrd> it has to be getting a weak signal
[21:57] <mrksbrd> nothing else can be configured for the aircard
[21:57] <jennifer> i'll try it at home
[21:57] <jennifer> anyways
[21:58] <jennifer> ty for the help, bbs
[21:58] <mrksbrd> no prob
[21:59] <benbloom> anyone know whats a good way to take a slice of a mkv file without reencoding it? I was gonna use kdenlive but it doesn't accept mkv

[22:09] <ubuntu__> folks help, my kubuntu dont conect to internet anymore, it get IP from my router.  I try to access my router thru 192.168.0.1, it access my machine, not the router! I bet that is the problem.  With livecd I'm here :)
[22:10] <hyper_ch> ubuntu__: pastebin:  cat /etc/resolv.conf
[22:11] <ubuntu__> any clue??
[22:11] <ubuntu__> ops
[22:11] <feijo> hyper_ch: wait
[22:11] <hyper_ch> feijo: and patience is a virtue... you should try to get more of it
[22:12] <feijo> sorry youre right
[22:12] <feijo> hyper_ch: the cat command show livecd resolv.conf, right? I need to mount my HD and get that file from there?
[22:13] <hyper_ch> feijo: yes, it will show that one and yes, you'll have to mount the hd first to get the content of that one
[22:13] <Moradan> how can i get the list of currently installed packages? I've tried `dpkg -l` but it gives me many packeges that a not currently installed
[22:13] <feijo> it have just 2 lines:
[22:13] <feijo> search feijo
[22:13] <feijo> nameserver 192.168.0.1
[22:14] <hyper_ch> Moradan: dpkg -l | awk ‘/ii/ { print $2 }’ > packages.txt
[22:14] <hyper_ch> Moradan: or:  dpkg -l | awk ‘/ii/ { print $2 }’ | tr ‘\n’ ‘ ‘ > packages.txt
[22:14] <hyper_ch> feijo: is that the one in your real install?
[22:14] <feijo> its in root media disk etc
[22:15] <hyper_ch> feijo: I have no clue where you have it.... you should know which one is from your hd and which one is not
[22:15] <feijo> I'm checking other files in that folder, it is my HD
[22:15] <Moradan> hyper_ch, thanks a lot
[22:18] <Moradan> one more, what package does provide the "startx" command? i have x11-common and openbox (and all its dependencies) but i can't execute startx
[22:18] <hyper_ch> Moradan: install apt-file
[22:19] <feijo> hyper_ch: do I need to add something in resolv.conf?
[22:19] <hyper_ch> feijo: is it different than the one from the live cd?
[22:20] <feijo> hyper_ch: no
[22:20] <hyper_ch> than it should be working
[22:21] <feijo> weird... I will reboot and try again, but before that, it is a good time to increase my / partition size, do I use qpart for that?
[22:22] <andrej> / intrepid/kde4/solseek // Does anybody know how to run solseek under intrepid/kde4?
[22:25] <ibuffy> right, okay, so even in the default 4.1 (non-nightly build), "Hardware Drivers Manager" or anything pertaining to drivers isn't located in the system settings as described at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[22:26] <ibuffy> figured i get the graphics card to work to show off the distro to family
[22:28] <feijo> runing gparted
[22:30] <ibuffy> hopefully nvidia-settings will do the job
[22:31] <[Relic]> Mamarok, problem is they all show up on the top w/o a way to bring them down
[22:32] <ibuffy> nvidia-xconfig should do the trick
[22:34] <[Relic]> and again firefox locks  :(

[23:13] <Ch1ppy> Hey, for some reason my kaffeine seems to have disappeared - the package is installed but the binary isn't there? Can anyone help me out?
[23:14] <mrksbrd> jennifer: check pmsg
[23:14] <Kovert> any one know how to force the RSSNOW plasmoid to feed?
[23:15] <BluesKaj> Ch1ppy, look in konquror /usr/bin
[23:15] <georgious> hello guys
[23:15] <georgious> I have a *small* problem - I am running kde4 now but kaffeine is not working at all
[23:15] <georgious> there is no binary file for it - it just disappeared
[23:16] <georgious> and Dragon player does not run my subtitles
[23:16] <Ch1ppy> BluesKaj: Not there
[23:16] <georgious> moreover, it won't work, if I have turned on 3d special effects
[23:16] <Ch1ppy> georgious: I'm having the same issue!
[23:17] <Ch1ppy> Kaffeine was working yesterday
[23:17] <georgious> and not today, right.
[23:17] <georgious> after an upgrade
[23:17] <Ch1ppy> I do recall there being an update for it earlier today, which I installed
[23:17] <georgious> or sth
[23:17] <Ch1ppy> yep!
[23:17] <georgious> f*ck
[23:17] <georgious> I missed a date
[23:17] <georgious> 'cause I couldn't play a film!
[23:17] <dios_mio> doyou all have the same problem in KDE when it plays notification sounds it is delayed and sometimes cut my mp3 player for a second?
[23:18] <BluesKaj> Ch1ppy, have the same prob, thx for mentioning the update
[23:18] <georgious> dios_mio: nope, we have different problem, sorry.. :)
[23:18] <Ch1ppy> dios_mio: I don't think I've had an issue with it
[23:19] <dios_mio> must be my crappy hardware then
[23:19] <Ch1ppy> dios_mio: Possibly your audio setup - I have no idea how it goes together but that seems possible
[23:19] <dios_mio> Ch1ppy: ok thanks
[23:19] <georgious> so, is there a solution at all?
[23:19] <Ch1ppy> georgious: I'm just going to use VLC player until kaffeine is fixed
[23:19] <georgious> for at least
[23:20] <georgious> it will work?
[23:20] <georgious> m
[23:20] <georgious> let me try it..
[23:20] <Ch1ppy> georgious: Should work with subtitles adn everything
[23:21] <georgious> Ch1ppy: does it work for you now
[23:21] <georgious> ?
[23:21] <Ch1ppy> georgious: VLC does
[23:23] <georgious> Ch1ppy: can you tell me how I can change subtitles encoding?
[23:24] <Ch1ppy>  georgious: With VLC player it's in the preferences under Sobtitles
[23:24] <Ch1ppy> subtitles*
[23:24] <georgious> yeah
[23:24] <georgious> but
[23:24] <georgious> it won't work..
[23:25] <georgious> when I just press Save
[23:25] <Ch1ppy>  georgious: No ideas then, sorry
[23:27] <georgious> ah, it worked
[23:27] <georgious> I just had to restart
[23:27] <georgious> thanks a lot :)
[23:27] <georgious> maybe I will use that one only..
