| OxDeadC0de | ubuntu what happened? | 01:04 |
| nathan_ | anyone know how to uninstall wine in terminall? | 01:04 |
| ubuntu | well when i upgraded x wouldnt start because shared libraries werent found, libxdmcp.so.6 and when i tried to install it it said already newest version, so i uninstalled it and it uninstalled a bunch of things including my ability to get online,,,,,,,,, | 01:05 |
| OxDeadC0de | kevin_ search launchpad for acx cards on ubuntu, if it comes up with nothing useful try google and acx cards with linux :| | 01:05 |
| OxDeadC0de | ubuntu upgraded from what to what? | 01:05 |
| ubuntu | hardy to intrepid | 01:06 |
| OxDeadC0de | hmm what happened? I'm guessing you had third party repo's installed? those are the only things that really broke upgrades for me | 01:07 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: can you chroot to it ? | 01:07 |
| ubuntu | i guess i did | 01:07 |
| ubuntu | i dont know now i guess im just going to reformat | 01:08 |
| guiterb | inter3945 | 01:08 |
| cuznt | you had to locate libxdmcp.so.6 | 01:08 |
| ubuntu | it wasnt there | 01:08 |
| nathan_ | anyone know how to uninstall wine from terminal? | 01:08 |
| ubuntu | couldnt be found | 01:08 |
| guiterb | <DaSkreech> | 01:08 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: you are on the live CD now right ? | 01:08 |
| ubuntu | yes | 01:08 |
| ubuntu | my lord now i cant back up my home folder | 01:09 |
| BluesKaj | OxDeadC0de, it could be you hardware, intrepid depends more on HAL than ever before so you may need to check out all the drivers required, not just the generic stuff | 01:09 |
| OxDeadC0de | ubuntu when doing a dist upgrade, I always (now)fully upgrade the regular stuff first, then clean out apt-cache, then when I do the dist upgrade I have all the packages on my hd, and if it fails for any reason I can force install everything, then run autoremove to fix things, | 01:09 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: Yes you can | 01:09 |
| cuznt | nice.. thats a great idea Ox | 01:09 |
| DaSkreech | cuznt: It's the recommended way :) | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | It's not fool rppof by any means | 01:10 |
| ubuntu | im getting input output errors | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: On the hard drive? | 01:10 |
| ubuntu | yes | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | What device is it is saying that for? | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | Grrr | 01:10 |
| ubuntu | my external drive | 01:10 |
| ubuntu | this doesnt make sense because i can write to it with no problem | 01:10 |
| cuznt | ubuntu was missing libxdmcp.so.6 as i recall | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: Oh external what about the internal? | 01:11 |
| DaSkreech | I don't have that file | 01:11 |
| DaSkreech | Any here has libxdmcp.so.6 ? | 01:11 |
| nathan_ | could someone help me uninstall wine? | 01:11 |
| ubuntu | i dont know | 01:11 |

| OxDeadC0de | nathan_ http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild_Wars_on_Wine asking more than once doesn't help | 01:35 |
| NetSkier | OxDeadC0de, starting Firefox in a console produces 13 lines of output, most of which I don't understand, but suggesting that there is a bug in the program causing it to receive an X-windows error. What should I do next? | 01:39 |
| OxDeadC0de | netskier: personally i'd do mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla-old and restart it with a default profile | 01:40 |
| ubuntu | heh forget it | 01:40 |
| ubuntu | im reformatting | 01:40 |
| NetSkier | OxDeadC0de, worth a try. Proceeding. | 01:41 |
| OxDeadC0de | then you can go into the .mozilla-old and move the bookmarks | 01:41 |
| NetSkier | cd | 01:41 |
| OxDeadC0de | ubuntu: if you reformat please follow some advice | 01:41 |
| OxDeadC0de | ubuntu: make a seperate partition for /home | 01:41 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: What happened? | 01:41 |
| beachsurfin | still not seeing what i'm searching for | 01:41 |
| OxDeadC0de | ubuntu: then if it ever happens again you don't loose any personal data | 01:41 |
| beachsurfin | nothing is showing up | 01:41 |
| beachsurfin | "tor" | 01:41 |
| OxDeadC0de | lose* | 01:41 |
| DaSkreech | !tor | 01:41 |
| ubottu | Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 01:41 |
| beachsurfin | i know it's in the repos | 01:41 |
| beachsurfin | the problem isn't how to use tor, it's that it like others aren't showing up in the adept programs | 01:42 |
| beachsurfin | even after doing the command mentioned earlier | 01:42 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: no Net ? | 01:43 |
| OxDeadC0de | beachsurfin if you open a console and do: "aptitude search kde" does it show anything? | 01:43 |
| beachsurfin | would the "state" and "requested" checkmarks have soemthing to do with this? all the icons on their rows are colored | 01:43 |
| beachsurfin | OxDeadC0de: yes | 01:43 |
| beachsurfin | i've been using the command line because of this problem, but i'm wanting to fix it now | 01:44 |
| ubuntu | i cant mount my external | 01:44 |
| ubuntu | what the heck is all this | 01:44 |
| OxDeadC0de | beachsurfin just a thought, you can try "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" and see if there was a fix for adept | 01:44 |
| beachsurfin | nothing to be upgraded | 01:45 |
| OxDeadC0de | haha in kde 4.2b2 adept installer doesn't launch for me even ;P | 01:45 |
| beachsurfin | is what i'm told | 01:45 |
| OxDeadC0de | tho I can launch it via cli | 01:45 |

| OxDeadC0de | SJr|Nbook they mostly fixed it in 4.1.3 but not completly, in 4.2 it's all but gone | 01:54 |
| SJr|Nbook | Oh sweet jesus | 01:54 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: May want to backup the packages you had installed as well so you can reference it later | 01:55 |
| ubuntu | there we go i think its copying | 01:55 |
| OxDeadC0de | sjr|nbook they've got it down to sometimes a little white border around a systray icon that's written for gtk (gnome) | 01:55 |
| SJr|Nbook | oh okay | 01:55 |
| SJr|Nbook | hmmmm | 01:55 |
| OxDeadC0de | I can't wait for 4.2B3 | 01:57 |
| OxDeadC0de | B2 rocks so far | 01:57 |
| SJr|Nbook | Hmmmm how stable is 4.2 thus far | 01:57 |
| SJr|Nbook | It's really annoying me | 01:57 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: Did you install a lot of stuff? | 01:57 |
| OxDeadC0de | Sjr|Nbook it has quirks, but once they're "sorted out" it's better than 4.1.3, couldn't get 4.1.3 to not crash overnight while sleeping, this session has been running 2 days without a crash (but I know ways to force it to crash..) | 01:57 |
| HappySmileMan | SJr|Nbook: Only time 4.2 has crashed for me is when enabling comic plasmoid, though I don't use much plasmoids | 01:58 |
| SJr|Nbook | OxDeadC0de is one of them to "Press the K Button" or "Open an application" or "Look at the screen" | 01:58 |
| OxDeadC0de | Sjr|Nbook - when first setting a comic on the comic plasmoid it will crash, but if you keep retrying eventually it will stop crashing :P So you Can use comics | 01:58 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: For me really really stable. anecdotaly plasma and kmail have a few crashes but the most part it's very good | 01:58 |
| OxDeadC0de | lol no | 01:58 |
| SJr|Nbook | Don't care about plasmoids. | 01:58 |
| DaSkreech | HappySmileMan: Speaking of which it's time for me to go crash plasma | 01:58 |
| OxDeadC0de | It's the comic plasmoid, and if you drop a folderview plasmoid onto the taskbar.. it crashes for me, others said it didn't for them | 01:59 |
| SJr|Nbook | I don't have any, not even the desktop plasmoid, thank you KDE for ruining it | 01:59 |
| HappySmileMan | SJr|Nbook: Yeah look at the screen and it crashes, I use my peripheral vision and it's fine though :P | 01:59 |
| OxDeadC0de | HAHA | 01:59 |
| DaSkreech | OxDeadC0de: use the quick access plasmoid it's waaaaay nicer | 01:59 |
| SJr|Nbook | Hmmmmm | 01:59 |
| OxDeadC0de | DaSkreech I do already, was just testing it to see what happened | 01:59 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: It's better in KDE 4.2 you can have your old KDE 3 desktop back | 01:59 |
| SJr|Nbook | ugh... oh well 4.2 it is. Hmmmm is that something I get at launchpad or whatever. | 01:59 |
| SJr|Nbook | Oh my god really | 01:59 |
| OxDeadC0de | DaSkreech was hoping it'd be smart enough to do something other than crash and make a tiny ass folder view, like turn it into an icon | 01:59 |
| DaSkreech | OxDeadC0de: Ah yes me too but I hate folderview now that I have quick access | 02:00 |
| SJr|Nbook | KDE 3.5 was so good. | 02:00 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: It's in the topic | 02:00 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: KDE 4.5 will likely be better :) | 02:00 |
| SJr|Nbook | I dunno KDE seems to be going on the weirdest tangent. | 02:00 |
| OxDeadC0de | 4.3 will be better even.. :P | 02:00 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: What's strange about it? | 02:00 |
| OxDeadC0de | From a programming perspective, I like this tangent | 02:00 |
| OxDeadC0de | makes things a bit easier to play with | 02:01 |
| SJr|Nbook | There trying new things, which is by definition bad. | 02:01 |
| OxDeadC0de | and by a bit I mean a lot | 02:01 |
| SJr|Nbook | It's like voting for the Democratic party, or granting universal sufferage | 02:01 |
| kevin_ | hello again dead | 02:01 |
| SJr|Nbook | I liked it better when I got three hog heads to the gallon, and the kaiser was still in power. | 02:01 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: trying new things are bad? or they are trying new things that are bad? | 02:02 |
| SJr|Nbook | I dunno :P I'm exagurating of course. I'll just say that it's different, and I thought KDE was near perfect (from a user perspective, clearly not a programming one). | 02:02 |
| DaSkreech | in either case you are wrong :) | 02:02 |
| kevin_ | my wireless card is still not detecting my wireless access point any suggestions that might help? | 02:02 |

| SJr|Nbook | I'm sure History will invalidate my opinion | 02:03 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: This is offtopic in any case if you want chat about it #kubuntu-offtopic is where we shall go | 02:03 |
| DaSkreech | OxDeadC0de: it's not stock :-P | 02:03 |
| SJr|Nbook | Ah | 02:03 |
| SJr|Nbook | Ah sorry I didn't realize. | 02:03 |
| SJr|Nbook | Hmmmmm Why do next to know plasmoids show up in my list either | 02:04 |
| kevin_ | please, any help at all? | 02:04 |
| DaSkreech | SJr|Nbook: Kubuntu split plasmoids out into a seperate package and decided not to install it for some reason | 02:04 |
| DaSkreech | kevin_: what does sudo iwlist scan say ? | 02:04 |
| SJr|Nbook | hmmmm | 02:05 |
| SJr|Nbook | yeah but why like do I have a CPU Frequency plasmoid that once I remove, I can't get back :P | 02:05 |

| korn | yes, sorry, kubuntu | 02:11 |
| DaSkreech | kevin_: Most laptops have a switch somewhere that will turn off the wireless card | 02:11 |
| kevin_ | oh hold up let me check | 02:11 |
| kevin_ | it is off | 02:13 |
| kevin_ | i pressed it many times | 02:13 |
| kevin_ | never pulled up my network | 02:14 |
| SJr|Nbook | Anyone know a tool that can copy files and report the file transfer rate in like a text file | 02:14 |
| korn | kevin_: thanks. Does Firefox then come with the standard ubuntu installation, or is it first downloaded with the apt-get command? | 02:14 |
| kevin_ | korn: no prob. and i believe it is the standard Ubuntu installation | 02:15 |
| nathan_ | were would i find the wine config in kubuntu? | 02:15 |
| kevin_ | nathan_: have you installed wine? | 02:16 |

| === root is now known as Guest70820 | ||
| SJr|Nbook | but oh well | 02:29 |
| DaSkreech | What is the suck about it? :) | 02:29 |
| SJr|Nbook | It seems that on the outer 124/2 pixels there is just that same graphic corruption. | 02:30 |
| SJr|Nbook | 62 pixels | 02:30 |
| DaSkreech | Really? Hmm | 02:30 |
| DaSkreech | I'll look next time I have to login which isn't that often | 02:31 |
| DaSkreech | Though I might logout soon :) | 02:31 |
| SJr|Nbook | I'm on a netbook though | 02:31 |
| SJr|Nbook | I think KDM wants it to be 800x600, and just puts crap in the outter 124 pixes | 02:31 |
| SJr|Nbook | 224* | 02:31 |
| SJr|Nbook | DaSkreech hmmmmm I guess that is only for KDE 4.1, since according to apt, I have a conflict between kdeplasma-addons (which kdeplasmoids depends on) and kdeplasmoids. | 02:37 |

| dinesh | i have kubuntu installed and now trying to install tomcat. tomcat installs fine but when i start tomcat | 02:53 |
| dinesh | from terminal window | 02:53 |
| kevin_ | it works on other machines | 02:53 |
| dinesh | i get permissions issued writing to log files | 02:53 |
| kevin_ | just not this one | 02:53 |
| DaSkreech | Derath: a .desktop file will launch any file | 02:53 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: what's the wireless card? | 02:54 |
| DaSkreech | dinesh: you probably need to start it as particualr user | 02:54 |
| dinesh | i do see tomcat55 user auto created wit nogroup | 02:55 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: acx 100 | 02:55 |
| dinesh | but i cant change the owner or login to root | 02:55 |
| dinesh | it doesnt allow me to loign to root | 02:55 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: the main thing im worried about right now is the kernel panics. cuz without that fixed i cant do anything with it | 02:56 |
| dinesh | the only user it allows me to login in dinesh | 02:56 |
| dinesh | which is something i selected during install | 02:56 |
| cuznt | <dinesh> but i cant change the owner or login to root | 02:56 |
| cuznt | no log in as root | 02:56 |
| cuznt | you can do things as root inside | 02:56 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: okay, not familiar with that one, but a google search shows there are established OSS drivers | 02:56 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: what kind of interface? | 02:57 |
| DaSkreech | dinesh: sudo su | 02:57 |
| dinesh | ahh | 02:57 |
| dinesh | i will try sudo su | 02:57 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: Texas Instruments ACX 100 22Mbps Wireless Interface | 02:57 |
| p_quarles | sudo -i is a better idea | 02:57 |
| dinesh | thank you | 02:57 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: okay, but I'm trying to figure out how it connects to the computer | 02:57 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: you say "when I connect it" | 02:58 |
| ubuntu | !lock | 02:58 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lock | 02:58 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: USB? PCI? | 02:58 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: it only happens when the card is inserted in the PCI slot | 02:58 |
| dinesh | yes i am loged in as root..Thanks every one for the support.. | 02:59 |
| dinesh | i am loving ubuntu,, | 02:59 |
| dinesh | :) | 02:59 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: are you able to test other PCI cards in that slot? that card in other PCI slots? | 02:59 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: this one works with others | 02:59 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: the card or the slot? | 03:00 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: card | 03:00 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: the other card i have doesn't work either | 03:00 |
| ubuntu | dinesh: give it time............ull hate itr | 03:00 |
| p_quarles | okay, so it still may be a faulty PCI slot, which is kind of beyond the support a software channel can offer; unfortunately, the fact that the kernel panic commences on inserting the card makes it hard to debug | 03:01 |
| dinesh | will see..: -) | 03:02 |
| ubuntu | mk | 03:03 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: any way to fix the kernel panic? | 03:03 |
| ubuntu | be sure and back up everything | 03:03 |
| ubuntu | in fact keep anything important off the partition u have ubuntu on | 03:03 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: without knowing what causes it? no | 03:04 |
| dinesh | you are scaring me.. | 03:04 |
| dinesh | may be thats what i should do then | 03:04 |
| dinesh | : ( | 03:04 |
| ubuntu | no need to be scared | 03:04 |
| ubuntu | linux is great...........but itll anger you from time to time | 03:05 |
| kevin_ | p_quarles: i know it has something to do with the wireless cad | 03:05 |
| dsnaike | kevin I checked ubuntu wifi docs appears the acx 100 not supported but the the acx 111 is | 03:05 |
| p_quarles | kevin_: no you don't, because you can't rule out the PCI slot without further information | 03:06 |
| dsnaike | kevi try this link http://acx100.sourceforge.net/ | 03:06 |
| kevin_ | dsnaike: i already have those drivers installed | 03:06 |

| tylor_ | yes | 04:19 |

| anika | if you want wider settings as well you can back up /etc but never use that as a whole sale restore | 04:27 |
| tylor_ | i do not have an external hard drive to back it up to, is there any way to do it without using another drive. | 04:28 |
| nathan_ | anika: really just want to know how to autohide the taskbar | 04:28 |
| tylor_ | i want to change to Mandriva 2009, it imports Windows files from the LiveCD if i import my files to the root folder while running the LiveCD will it save it when i install to hard drive? | 04:29 |
| tylor_ | anika are you on kde 4 | 04:29 |
| anika | nathan_: the menu button -> more settings -> Auto hide | 04:30 |
| anika | tylor_: yes | 04:33 |
| nathan_ | anika: were is the menu button? | 04:33 |
| tylor_ | far right you have to have the widgets unlocked | 04:33 |
| anika | nathan_: Far right | 04:33 |
| nathan_ | it look like a cashew? | 04:34 |
| Dragnslcr | Yeah | 04:35 |
| Dragnslcr | I don't think anyone ever figured out why | 04:35 |
| nathan_ | anika: does hte menu button look like a cashew? | 04:36 |
| anika | nathan_: yes | 04:38 |
| punk | hello | 04:38 |
| anika | Dragnslcr: It's supposed to be a paint palete | 04:38 |
| punk | somebody from barcelona? | 04:39 |
| Dragnslcr | I see... | 04:39 |
| nathan_ | when i click on it it does not give me a more settings option just says add widgets? | 04:39 |
| OxDeadC0de | The cashew tastes good, it tastes better in 4.2 | 04:39 |
| anika | punk: maybe is it important? | 04:40 |
| OxDeadC0de | click around nathan_ | 04:40 |
| punk | for talk in catalan or spanish | 04:40 |

| OxDeadC0de | nathan_ sorry I went to play some vice city :P, lost track of what's going on, so what's the deal now? ^^ | 04:42 |
| OxDeadC0de | oh I see, autohide taskbar? | 04:42 |
| punk | thanks | 04:42 |
| OxDeadC0de | cashew/more settings/autohide, only available in 4.2beta2 | 04:42 |
| nathan_ | OxDeadC0de: yeah i do not see the option anywere to do this? | 04:42 |
| OxDeadC0de | you're probably not in 4.2beta2 | 04:43 |
| OxDeadC0de | don't worry 4.2 full will be out next month, prob about midway through after another beta.. | 04:43 |
| nathan_ | OxDeadC0de: no clue just burned the iso 8.10 tonight and booted up | 04:44 |
| OxDeadC0de | nathan_ then you're in 4.1.2, crappy buggy version I think most will agree | 04:44 |
| nathan_ | OxDeadC0de: oh great firt time kde user and got the wrong one lol | 04:45 |
| OxDeadC0de | nathan_ no you got the right one, 4.2 was a few months to late (is) for 8.10 though, which is the latest releas | 04:45 |
| OxDeadC0de | release* | 04:45 |
| OxDeadC0de | read the topic to get 4.2beta2 - but remember it's beta | 04:46 |
| anika | OxDeadC0de: It's not poout yet :-P | 04:46 |
| anika | out | 04:46 |
| OxDeadC0de | that's why I said it's to late for 8.10 | 04:46 |
| nathan_ | OxDeadC0de: so you are saying there isnt an autohide feature on my version? | 04:47 |
| anika | nathan_: No check the topic for kde 4.2 | 04:47 |
| OxDeadC0de | nathan_ that's what I'm saying, if you want a good version though with less bugs (but still a few..) read the topic on how to update to it, i hope you don't have dial-up | 04:47 |
| mio | hi | 04:51 |
| NetSkier | OxDeadC0de, is KDE 4.1.3 also crappy? | 04:53 |
| anika | NetSkier: For some people | 05:03 |
| OxDeadC0de | NetSkier my opinion, yes, 4.2 is what 4.0 should have been | 05:07 |
| OxDeadC0de | can't wait to see where it will go next, what 4.3 will be like | 05:08 |
| OxDeadC0de | will be I mean, 4.2b2 is already excellent, and they've gotten rid of so many bugs since the b2 release I'm thinking about installing nightly tomorrow | 05:10 |
| OxDeadC0de | and the new weather widget is supposed to be working and bug-free - though missing some icons that will be made by the oxygen team eventually | 05:12 |
| OxDeadC0de | but it needs the latest version of kde to compile. even newer than the b2 release. | 05:13 |
| anika | OxDeadC0de: version 1.0 ? | 05:22 |
| OxDeadC0de | anika? | 05:23 |
| anika | Yes? | 05:27 |
| anika | The Weather station plasmoid should be 1.0 | 05:27 |
| cuznt | there is a lancelot launcher that does not work yet either | 05:28 |
| NetSkier | Based on the good reviews, I just attempted to upgrade to KDE 4.2, but everything still looks like 4.1.3. How can I tell whether the upgrade was successful? | 05:28 |
| OxDeadC0de | oh yeah ^^ | 05:28 |
| OxDeadC0de | my lancelot launcher works :O, where doesn't yours cuznt? | 05:29 |
| Salze_ | NetSkier: Look at the info pages in the help menu. | 05:29 |
| NetSkier | dpkg -l is showing mostly 4.1.3 things, and only a few 4.1.85-ppa1 pkgs. | 05:29 |
| cuznt | hrmmm | 05:29 |
| Salze_ | NetSkier: Then you haven't updated successfully. | 05:29 |
| NetSkier | Salze_, yes, just confirmed with your suggestion. | 05:30 |
| cuznt | it states it could not find the launcher | 05:31 |
| anika | cuznt: What is wrong with lancelot? | 05:31 |
| alonea | I have no idea what happened, but I think my wifi drivers borked. My wireless card was working fine, but when I logged in today, the light wont turn blue and knetworkmanager doesn't see it. | 05:32 |
| alonea | The card works fine in my other os's | 05:32 |
| cuznt | in fact most of my applets listed are missing | 05:32 |
| cuznt | say component not found | 05:32 |
| anika | hi alonea :) | 05:32 |
| alonea | anika: hey | 05:33 |
| alonea | anika: wireless card doesn't work for me anymore and I haven't done anything i don't think. | 05:33 |
| anika | cuznt: install kdeplasma-addons | 05:33 |
| anika | and plasmoid-quickaccess | 05:33 |
| alonea | anika: I did update to intrepid, but it worked after that as well. Lemme find what card I got. | 05:34 |
| alonea | Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) | 05:34 |
| anika | Ugh | 05:35 |
| anika | !broadcom | 05:35 |
| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 05:35 |
| alonea | yeah... | 05:35 |
| alonea | but the crazy thing for me is, its been perfectly fine for over a month. | 05:35 |
| OxDeadC0de | cuznt sudo apt-get install kdeplasma-addons | 05:35 |
| anika | andplasmoid=quickaccess | 05:35 |
| OxDeadC0de | alonea I have the exact same wifi card, using it now, I use ndiswrapper tho | 05:36 |
| alonea | OxDeadC0de: I haven't needed ndiswrapper at all. it worked out of the box. I used to use that on an old laptop though | 05:36 |
| alonea | OxDeadC0de: I am very confused as to what has gone wrong | 05:37 |
| cuznt | Depends: libplasma2 but it is not going to be installed | 05:37 |
| OxDeadC0de | alonea for me ndis is better, keeps the speed at a more stable level with all the interference I get, less switching is better overall performance for streaming audio | 05:37 |
| alonea | OxDeadC0de: *shrugs* didn't have any problems till now. | 05:37 |
| cuznt | plasmoid-lancelot: Depends: libplasma2 but it is not going to be installed | 05:38 |
| alonea | anika: that page is outdated. no articles for intrepid, which seems to me so far is way different than hardy | 05:38 |
| anika | cuznt: What version of KDE are you using? | 05:38 |
| anika | alonea: not on the driver level | 05:38 |
| OxDeadC0de | ya you have to remove the old plasmoid packages | 05:38 |
| cuznt | beta | 05:38 |
| alonea | anika: ya know, let me see if those drivers under hardware will work | 05:38 |
| OxDeadC0de | they're all included now in the one package that relies on libplasma3 | 05:39 |
| cuznt | 4.2.x | 05:39 |
| alonea | anika: they were not installed before, but I can try them. | 05:39 |
| OxDeadC0de | cuznt apt-get autoremove | 05:39 |
| alonea | anika: or not...its not listed anymore. | 05:39 |
| cuznt | says i have to get ridof superkaramba | 05:39 |
| cuznt | and stuff | 05:40 |
| Lillymon | Can someone please help me? aRts has gone insane. I've got "/usr/bin/artsd" listed at least 30 times in htop and my system is slowing down accordingly. How the hell do I stop it? | 05:41 |
| OxDeadC0de | lillymon killall artsd | 05:42 |
| alonea | ya know, there have been tons of kernel updates lately. Maybe that broke it. | 05:42 |
| p_quarles | Lillymon: the fact that a process has multiple PIDs doesn't mean it's behaving incorrectly | 05:42 |
| p_quarles | Lillymon: but, of course, htop includes a rich kill function | 05:42 |
| Lillymon | First thing I tried, no impact. There probably about 100 now, this can't possibly be normal, my PC almost ground to a complete halt once already. | 05:43 |
| cuznt | Could not resolve 'ppa.launchpad.net' | 05:43 |
| Lillymon | There was an error message when I started about KNotify crashing when KDE last started. I selected to disable aRts output, but it doesn't seem to have paid any attention. | 05:43 |
| p_quarles | hmm -- yeah, that doesn't sound so normal -- is this a one time thing or has it happened several times? | 05:44 |
| cuznt | Err http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid/main kdeplasma-addons 4:4.1.85-0ubuntu1~intrepid1~ppa1 | 05:44 |
| alonea | also, touchpad is still kinda crazy in intrepid. its mildly better, but still funky. | 05:44 |
| Lillymon | I recently killed off a broken OSS install and installed the latest development version of OSS 4.1. Sound works fine, but this started immediately after. | 05:44 |
| p_quarles | Lillymon: ALSA doesn't work with your sound card? | 05:45 |
| Lillymon | Sound Blaster X-Fi. I hope it will work in Jaunty, if ALSA is updated before then. | 05:45 |
| Lillymon | I'm currently on Hardy. | 05:46 |
| p_quarles | sounds like a mess, Lillymon | 05:46 |
| alonea | brb... | 05:46 |
| Lillymon | They all say "/usr/bin/artsd -F 10 -S 4096 -a toss -s 60 -m artsmessage -c drkonqi -l 3 -f" | 05:47 |
| guimel | hola | 05:47 |

| guimel | cabextract | 05:48 |
| Lillymon | Everything except KDE system sounds seem to be working. I'd be more than happy to kill of aRts entirely if that's all I was losing. | 05:49 |
| guimel | hi! | 05:49 |
| p_quarles | !hello | guimel | 05:49 |
| ubottu | guimel: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 05:49 |

| guimel | thanks | 05:50 |
| Lillymon | killall doesn't appear to make the slightest bit of difference. | 05:51 |
| alonea | anika: yup. it was a bad update. There was a newer one that i put on, restarted. Works now. | 05:51 |
| Salze_ | Lillymon: did you sudo killall? | 05:51 |
| Lillymon | Yep. | 05:51 |
| Salze_ | Have you tried to disable the sound system in the system settings? | 05:51 |
| guimel | thanks bye | 05:51 |
| alonea | anika: linux-resticted-modules I think | 05:52 |
| OxDeadC0de | anyone here use kde-nightly? | 05:52 |
| Lillymon | How do I actually do that? | 05:52 |
| Salze_ | Which version of kde? | 05:53 |
| Lillymon | Any change there results in "Starting sound system." until I hit cancel, it never completes. | 05:53 |
| Lillymon | KDE3. | 05:53 |
| Salze_ | System Settings -> Sound system (or anything sounding like that - I don't know the exact wording). | 05:54 |
| Lillymon | Even 'No Audio Input/Output' results in the system perpetually trying to start the sound system. | 05:54 |
| Salze_ | Did you reboot? | 05:54 |
| Lillymon | I'll have to try that next. | 05:55 |
| Lillymon | Frankly though, aRts seems to be superfluous. Nothing I do in the sound settings actually impacts any applications. Can I just REMOVE arts entirely? | 05:56 |
| Salze_ | I don't think so - but I'm no expert on that. | 05:56 |
| korn | Hello, I would like to ask how we can test whether the speakers are working properly in Kubuntu? | 05:57 |
| Lillymon | Well if I can, I want to. I've had a Core 2 Duo booted for about an hour and it's crawling just trying to DISPLAY Firefox. This is not normal or acceptable. | 05:58 |
| korn | and whether there are any rpm's to install | 05:58 |
| korn | to enable the speakers | 05:58 |
| korn | thanks in advance | 05:58 |
| anika | korn: KDE 3 or KDE 4? | 06:00 |
| alonea | korn: as far as I know, kubuntu doesn't use rpm, though it can do deb installers. You could always play a song. | 06:00 |
| korn | anika: KDE 3.5.9 | 06:01 |
| Salze_ | korn: There is a button to test the sound in system settings -> sound system. | 06:01 |
| korn | unfortunately, no audio signal is being played by the speaker | 06:01 |
| anika | System settings -> Sound -> Test sound | 06:02 |
| korn | anika: thanks, I tried that, but don't receive any audio response | 06:02 |
| korn | does it give an audio response to that? | 06:02 |
| anika | yes | 06:02 |
| korn | Salze_, anika: is there any other way to restart the speakers, e.g. a detect speakers option? | 06:03 |
| anika | They used to work? | 06:04 |
| Salze_ | korn: You can try different settings on that page - which soundsystem to use, etc. | 06:04 |
| korn | or a command to disable the speakers and restart them | 06:04 |
| korn | they didn't work with Ubuntu before, no, although, they did work through Windows, which I had earlier | 06:05 |
| korn | Salze_: thanks, I've tried the options under Sound System, but they don't restart the audio system | 06:07 |
| Lillymon | Right, restarted. No aRts as of yet, but the same error message. "During the previous startup, KNotify crashed while instatiating KNotify. Do you want to try again or disable aRts sound output?" | 06:07 |
| Salze_ | korn: Maybe your soundcard is not supported. You could try google for information on that. | 06:07 |
| Lillymon | First time I selected to try again, the second I selected to disable aRts because of the problems I had with aRts going bonkers. BOTH times aRts dragged my system down. | 06:08 |
| Salze_ | Did you reboot in between? | 06:09 |
| korn | The 'Test Sound' button does however, send audio output to external speakers, when they are connected | 06:09 |
| Lillymon | I've restarted now, I only restarted X the first time. | 06:09 |
| korn | Salze_: thanks, it might, however, not be a sound card issue | 06:10 |
| korn | to send audio output to built-in speakers? | 06:11 |
| Lillymon | OK, chose to disable aRts, and no aRts as of yet. I'm tentatively calling this solved, but I'm still tempted to just remove aRts. I'm getting sound now, so how important can it be? | 06:11 |
| Salze_ | korn: I don't know that, sorry. | 06:13 |
| korn | Salze_: thank you, though | 06:15 |
| OxDeadC0de | hmm, anyone know how to get ruby bindings for plasma in kde4 nightly? ^^ | 06:15 |
| NetSkier | I upgraded to KDE 4.2b2, and now I have only one desktop. Right clicking on the leftmost icon at the bottom, gets me to Configure desktops, defaults, OK, returns me to ONE desktop, not the four defaults. Any ideas how to fix this? | 06:17 |
| anika | NetSkier: Pager Settings | 06:17 |
| zeltak | morning :) | 06:18 |
| anika | NetSkier: No wait Configure Desktops then change the number at top | 06:19 |
| guiterb | morning | 06:19 |
| NetSkier | anika, that takes me to the same place as what I wrote about; same null results. | 06:19 |
| zeltak | hi :) does amyone use akondai at all? i was wondering if one can sync with it kontacts info between the main computer and laptop? | 06:19 |
| NetSkier | anika, that fails too. | 06:19 |
| Anastasia | What do I need to install to fix this kind of error trying to compile?: chopatscfile.c:28:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory | 06:19 |
| anika | NetSkier: What did you sit the number to? | 06:20 |
| NetSkier | anika, 8 one time, 2 another. | 06:20 |
| anika | NetSkier: Did you get to name the desktops ? | 06:20 |
| NetSkier | anasha, no, I wanted to see them first. | 06:21 |
| anika | NetSkier: did you see that option? | 06:21 |
| OxDeadC0de | netskier system settings/desktop/multiple desktops | 06:21 |
| stdin | Anastasia: build-essential | 06:21 |
| Anastasia | stdin: Thanks, would have thought that stuff would be installed with gcc, but :-). Much appreciated. | 06:22 |
| NetSkier | anika, No. I see Desktop Names, I can select the name, but not overtype it. | 06:22 |
| korn | Salze_: thanks, I managed to fix my issue | 06:23 |
| stdin | Anastasia: it's not technically "needed", but it should probably be a recommend | 06:23 |
| anika | NetSkier: try OxDeadC0de's suggestion | 06:25 |
| NetSkier | anika, I just did, and it failed. | 06:25 |
| NetSkier | anasha, and OxDeadC0de , all three of those suggestions seem to go to the same place, which does not work. | 06:26 |
| anika | NetSkier: you have sudo abilites ? | 06:27 |
| NetSkier | anasha, yes | 06:27 |
| anika | Though really you should not need them | 06:28 |
| OxDeadC0de | Hmm, I can't seem to find ruby plugins in kde-nightly... >< | 06:28 |
| NetSkier | anasha, right, I thought that I was configuring the desktops for my regular user. | 06:28 |
| OxDeadC0de | er, ruby bindings | 06:28 |
| NetSkier | anika, I am not sure what to try with sudo yet. | 06:28 |
| Anastasia | stdin: Yes, one would think. That worked and I got what I needed compiled. Working at getting the HD3000 card to work, might need it soon :-). Again, *thanks*! | 06:36 |
| NetSkier | anika, Configure Desktop effects fails similarly, with a suggestion to check my X configuration. | 06:37 |
| anika | NetSkier: what is the suggestion ? | 06:38 |
| NetSkier | anika, just a sec. I was trying to start a kconsole, and what I got I could not type into. I need more desktops. | 06:39 |
| NetSkier | anika, "Check you X configuration. You may also consider changing advanced options, especially changing the compositing type." What is 'compositing type'? | 06:41 |
| NetSkier | s/you/your | 06:41 |
| anika | NetSkier: alt+shiift+12 butthat shouldn't do anything | 06:43 |
| anika | NetSkier: Screw this you want to do it the old way ? | 06:44 |
| NetSkier | anasha, sure | 06:44 |
| NetSkier | anika, sure. | 06:45 |
| anika | Edit ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc and edit the Desktops section | 06:45 |

| p_quarles | Guest14877: are you trying to change your home page? then why did you ask about changing your browser? | 07:30 |
| p_quarles | Guest14877: asking clear questions is an important part of getting help | 07:30 |
| gps23 | why isn't katapult included in kubuntu 8.10? | 07:30 |
| Guest14877 | p_quarles: my bad new to linux! | 07:31 |
| Guest14877 | p_quarles: so how do i change my homepage? | 07:32 |
| p_quarles | Guest14877: Konqueror doesn't do home pages the way other browsers do; you can save the URL as the startup page by going into settings and selecting "Save view profile 'web browsing'" | 07:32 |
| p_quarles | gps23: because it has krunner, which is better | 07:33 |
| jazman | just d/load fire fox or galeon browerser | 07:33 |
| gps23 | p_quarles, but in the name of freedom there should be an option to switch to katapult | 07:33 |
| gps23 | p_quarles, its not even in repos | 07:34 |
| p_quarles | gps23: yeah, you're free to compile it | 07:34 |
| JediatNight | Can anyone suggest a 3d game for ubuntu? | 07:34 |
| gps23 | p_quarles, thats ok, i can | 07:34 |
| p_quarles | gps23: katapult is an app for KDE3 -- Kubuntu 8.10 doesn't use KDE3 | 07:35 |
| gps23 | p_quarles, hmm, i got, i should myself used to krunner now | 07:35 |
| Guest14877 | p_quarles: settings or system settings? | 07:35 |
| gps23 | :( | 07:35 |

| kamal` | hello kubuntu! :) | 08:04 |
| * kamal` is using Intrepid Ibex with KDE 4.1.2 | 08:04 | |
| kamal` | i am just trying to find a way to assign shortcuts to launch apps in KDE 4.. no go so far :( | 08:05 |
| kamal` | can someone here please be kind to help with it? :) | 08:06 |
| kamal` | i had those set up in KDE 3.5.x earlier | 08:06 |
| White_Pelican | in 4.2 beta 2 for Intrepid, I seem to have lost my icon that says there are software updates available. How do I get that back? | 08:07 |
| kamal` | probably you gotta wait till more updates are available and it might pop up again :P | 08:09 |
| White_Pelican | I think I accidentally clicked it and said remove | 08:09 |
| missanthropic | okay i am about to sounds really stupid | 08:20 |
| missanthropic | what do i use this for? | 08:20 |
| missanthropic | i never used this IRC before | 08:20 |
| OxDeadC0de | you talk with people, ask questions, help people, get help | 08:21 |
| missanthropic | okay thats kinda what i was thinking | 08:21 |
| missanthropic | so if i have any problems with my ubuntu or anything i can get information from people using the same system | 08:22 |
| missanthropic | a lot easier than trying to find something online | 08:22 |
| OxDeadC0de | ya but google will still be your #1 friend | 08:22 |
| OxDeadC0de | this is #2 | 08:22 |
| missanthropic | heh. right | 08:22 |
| missanthropic | always | 08:22 |
| missanthropic | okay cool | 08:23 |
| missanthropic | i am very new to this | 08:23 |
| missanthropic | i love ubuntu | 08:23 |
| gps23 | how can i set shortcuts in kubuntu? | 08:23 |
| gps23 | using kde4 | 08:23 |
| OxDeadC0de | ok then, some useful info, please don't spam, use !pastebin for large posts, #kubuntu-offtopic for offtopic, | 08:24 |
| OxDeadC0de | !pastebin | 08:24 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 08:24 |
| missanthropic | ok | 08:25 |
| OxDeadC0de | gps23 what do you mean shortcuts, in a folder view or in the menu? if in the menu, right click, menu editor | 08:25 |
| OxDeadC0de | in a folder, make a link, you can probably do it through dolphin, if not, ln -s /path/to/real/file /path/to/where/I/want/it | 08:26 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, in the menu, i wanted to define a shortcut for konsole, i used menu edit to set it, but its not working | 08:26 |
| OxDeadC0de | gps123 I'm trying to test .. what version are you using ? straight off the iso no upgrades? 4.1.3? 4.2beta2? | 08:29 |
| gps23 | its 4.1.2 | 08:29 |
| OxDeadC0de | gps23: you clicked "new item" set the name to konsole, then the command to konsole, then clicked save right? | 08:30 |
| gps23 | i tell u what i did, in menu edit, i went to utilities->konsole, there in second tab i set a shortcut for it, then i saved menuedit | 08:30 |
| gps23 | but its not working | 08:30 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, sorry, its system->konsole | 08:30 |
| OxDeadC0de | gps23 and what's it say when you click the new item in the menu, is it even there? | 08:32 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, i didn't tried new item, because entry for konsole is already in system submenu | 08:32 |
| OxDeadC0de | gps23 and when you go to system and click on konsole what happens? | 08:33 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, then on right side, there are two tabs General, and advanced | 08:33 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, in the advanced tab, there is a place to set shrotcut, labelled 'Current Shortcut Key' | 08:34 |
| OxDeadC0de | gpss23 I can't test right now, I'm saving a menuitem, .. when I clicked save it went to 100% once slowly, then reset to 0 and did it again, then again, now it's on it's 4th run... wth | 08:35 |
| missanthropic | ok thanks all bye | 08:36 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, no, don't do new menu item, we don't want two konsoles in the menu | 08:36 |
| OxDeadC0de | I'll undo it when I can, but it's saving.. been saving for 5 minutes.. | 08:36 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, kill menuedit | 08:37 |
| OxDeadC0de | clicking cancel was easier.. hah. ok | 08:37 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, trying new menu item | 08:37 |
| OxDeadC0de | sry | 08:37 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, i too added new menu item for test, its working fine here | 08:37 |
| gps23 | now, try to assign shortcut to already existing konsole entry | 08:38 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, konsole is under system submenu | 08:38 |
| OxDeadC0de | oh ok, I see now sorry took me a minute | 08:39 |
| OxDeadC0de | works for me | 08:39 |
| OxDeadC0de | but I'm in 4.2b2 | 08:39 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, setting shortcut is fine, but its invoking the shortcut which is not working | 08:40 |
| OxDeadC0de | gps23 I see what you're saying, but I can't help, it works for me, but I'm using a newer version of kde | 08:40 |
| gps23 | OxDeadC0de, no probs, thanks for help | 08:41 |

| krio | mamarok hi | 10:18 |
| Atorvancas | Hi all how make the update in kubuntu version 6.10? | 10:18 |
| Mamarok | Atorvancas: do you want to upgrade to another version? | 10:18 |
| krio | i try to open a folder | 10:18 |
| Atorvancas | yes | 10:18 |
| krio | and i wait to time | 10:18 |
| Mamarok | krio: what version do you use? | 10:19 |
| krio | i have a 7.04 kubuntu and konqueror 3.5.6 i think | 10:19 |
| Mamarok | Atorvancas: you can upgrade from 6.10 to 8.04 directly, wait, I give you the link with the howto | 10:19 |
| Atorvancas | ok | 10:19 |
| Atorvancas | :) | 10:19 |
| Mamarok | Atorvancas: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 10:20 |
| Mamarok | krio: what specs is your computer? CPU, RAM? | 10:21 |
| Atorvancas | -thx | 10:21 |
| krio | mamarok: then i try yo create a new folder and it spend more time then usually | 10:21 |
| krio | i use a pentium 3 996 mgherz and 256 mb of ram | 10:22 |
| Mamarok | krio: and that's the problem I'd say, you don't have much ram, try to close some apps | 10:22 |
| krio | mamarok: but before it work fine!! | 10:23 |
| Mamarok | krio: did you try to close some running apps? | 10:23 |
| krio | no apps open then klipper and kino and alsa | 10:23 |
| Mamarok | krio: if you have many running services it slows down your system | 10:24 |
| Mamarok | krio: start top in a console and check what else is running | 10:24 |
| krio | what command i have to do | 10:25 |
| Mamarok | krio: top | 10:25 |
| hyper_ch | krio: I prefer htop | 10:25 |
| hyper_ch | krio: but you'll have to isntall it first | 10:25 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: htop is not installed by default! | 10:25 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: not in *buntu | 10:25 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: I do prefer it too, but that's still an additional step | 10:26 |

| krio | mamarok: http://paste.ubuntu.com/93676/ | 10:29 |
| Mamarok | krio: kino is huge btw, that will certainly slow down your system | 10:29 |
| Mamarok | krio: also, this makes you use gnome libs in kde, another overflow | 10:30 |
| krio | mamarok: what i have to do? | 10:31 |
| Mamarok | close kino and try again | 10:31 |
| krio | mamarok but i do not see the icon of kino and i have not open it | 10:32 |
| krio | mamarok now i try to open and then closed | 10:32 |
| Mamarok | krio: no, that's of no use :) | 10:33 |
| krio | so what i have to close? | 10:33 |
| krio | sorry mamarok so what i have to do to close it? | 10:34 |
| Mamarok | from your top utput it seems your kded is running wild, try to log out and start kde again, might do the trick | 10:34 |
| Mamarok | kinobut first, be aware that you have little ressources, so if your system runs slow its no wonder | 10:34 |
| Mamarok | krio: ^^ | 10:34 |
| krio | yes i know but i use this system and thisconfiguration from september and i do not see the system so slow | 10:36 |
| krio | the one difference is that i have installed pppoeconf to use directly a adsl conection | 10:36 |
| Mamarok | krio: well, it sometimes happens when you run for a certain time, consider investing into some additional ram | 10:37 |
| Mamarok | ram is cheap nowadays, so this is always a good investment | 10:37 |
| krio | perhaps i have understan what happens, apart the problem whit the less memory | 10:39 |

| hang3r | I actually wouldn't mind getting kdetv to work, it looks like a good little app that for whatever reason was abandoned | 11:31 |
| hang3r | And by work I mean re-opening the project | 11:31 |
| Mamarok | hang3r: from the comments on kde-apps.org, it seems someone has already ported it to kde 4, but maybe it changed its name | 11:32 |
| hang3r | the problem is they don't mention what "name" and Ive search pretty hard for tv related software for kde and cant find much of anything | 11:33 |

| VegaObscura | Anyone awake? | 12:40 |
| hyper_ch | no | 12:41 |
| hyper_ch | we're all sleeping | 12:41 |
| Mamarok | VegaObscura: this is a support channel, just ask your question | 12:41 |
| VegaObscura | Sorry. | 12:41 |
| VegaObscura | So I installed Ubuntu a while back | 12:41 |
| VegaObscura | Then I installed windows. | 12:41 |
| VegaObscura | And now my comp boots up windows by default, without ever going to grub | 12:41 |
| VegaObscura | Can I fix this without reinstalling ubuntu? | 12:41 |
| hyper_ch | VegaObscura: reinstall grub | 12:42 |
| Mamarok | !grub | VegaObscura | 12:42 |
| ubottu | VegaObscura: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 12:42 |
| VegaObscura | How do I do that? | 12:42 |
| VegaObscura | Oh, thanks. | 12:42 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: no, no need to reinstall! | 12:42 |
| Mamarok | *gosh* | 12:42 |
| hang3r | I've only just noticed, but the default trash can icon looks like it has a penis on it | 12:42 |
| hang3r | haha | 12:42 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: it's simplest :) | 12:43 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: actually it's a reinstallation of grub | 12:43 |
| hyper_ch | (in the boot sector) | 12:43 |
| hang3r | I'm never going to think of the trashcan the same way again | 12:43 |
| hang3r | :( | 12:43 |
| hyper_ch | hang3r: it only looks like it if you have a dirty mind | 12:44 |
| hang3r | hyper_ch: I must have a dirty mind then i guess *sigh* | 12:44 |
| hyper_ch | hang3r: or your subconcious is trying to tell you something | 12:45 |
| hang3r | hyper_ch: I think you're looking into it a bit too much | 12:45 |
| hyper_ch | hang3r: don't know :) | 12:46 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: you are Swiss, aren't you? | 12:47 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: so I am | 12:48 |
| Mamarok | part of the Swiss Team? | 12:48 |
| hyper_ch | nope | 12:48 |
| Mamarok | why not? | 12:48 |
| hyper_ch | why should I? | 12:48 |
| Mamarok | because there's a lot of work in Switzerland for Free Software :) | 12:49 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: ??? and you want to say with that? | 12:49 |
| Mamarok | that was an invitation for you to join the team :) | 12:50 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: what do I want in there? | 12:50 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: give it a try, it's fun | 12:50 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: why? | 12:51 |

| m__ | hello i am using rapidsvn . i ve set bookmark repository . i ve even checked out a new working copy . but cant add project | 12:54 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: would be nice to have all active Swiss ubunteros in the team | 12:55 |
| Mamarok | m__: did you read the doc I gave you? | 12:55 |
| m__ | :) yes . but i simply need to start working. can t read the entire thing | 12:55 |
| hyper_ch | I'm not active... I just spam ubuntuforums.org with a lot of comments and run my own little blog and maybe you know http://repogen.simplylinux.ch | 12:55 |
| Mamarok | m__: do you have permissions for the server? | 12:56 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: no, didn't know it, but how could I? It's not advertised as being a Swiss blog | 12:56 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SwissTeam | 12:57 |
| hyper_ch | simplylinux is more of a reminder for myself :) | 12:57 |

| Bart79 | hi all, ANYone familiar with Kopete? | 12:57 |
| Mamarok | m__: you need to have permissions on the svn server | 12:57 |
| hyper_ch | !anyone | Bart79 | 12:57 |
| ubottu | Bart79: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 12:57 |
| m__ | ok i would check that again | 12:57 |
| Mamarok | m__: else, check with your svn server admins | 12:58 |
| flavia | hyper_ch: just using knetworkmanager doesnt seem to work, is there any other tool? | 12:58 |
| m__ | ok | 12:58 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: no need to be a member | 12:58 |
| Bart79 | kopete specialists here..?? | 12:59 |
| hyper_ch | flavia: I'd guess the problem is with the wifi card itself | 12:59 |
| hyper_ch | !anyone | Bart79 | 12:59 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: nah, I just don't like to be part of a "team"... | 12:59 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: ok | 12:59 |
| hyper_ch | flavia: what wifi card have you got? | 12:59 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: but you are free to put repogen on the swiss team blog ;) | 13:00 |
| Mamarok | hyper_ch: nope, you have to do this yourself | 13:00 |
| hyper_ch | Bart79: don't get into a query | 13:00 |
| hyper_ch | Bart79: and then apologize for it | 13:00 |
| hyper_ch | Bart79: if you would be truly sorry, then you wouldn't even start a query | 13:01 |
| hyper_ch | Mamarok: oh well... then it won't be put on there | 13:01 |
| hyper_ch | Bart79: once more and you're on my ignore list | 13:01 |
| Mamarok | Bart79: behave! | 13:02 |
| Mamarok | Bart79: ask your questions in this channel only please! | 13:02 |
| Bart79 | sorry guys, first time | 13:02 |

| ubottu | Bart79: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 13:05 |
| flavia | hyper_ch: atheros 802.11 seems indeed to be a hard card to get working... I am reading about it on the forums | 13:05 |
| hyper_ch | flavia: probably you'll need to use the ndiswrapper | 13:06 |

| Mamarok | afk | 13:46 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: edit the sources.list file | 13:46 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: or there's a tool to edit the repos graphically | 13:46 |
| hang3r | Guest61528: K menu->Applications->Settings->Software Sources | 13:47 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: i am new to kubuntu not sure how to do so? | 13:47 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: what repos do are you looking for? | 13:47 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: i want to add one | 13:47 |
| hang3r | Guest61528: Then goto Third Party Repos and add it in there | 13:48 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: do as hang3r said or manually add it to /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:48 |
| hang3r | err, actually its Third-Party Software | 13:48 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: and where would i find that in kubuntu? | 13:49 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: that's the file path | 13:49 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: open a terminal | 13:49 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: enter: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:49 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: add the new repositor | 13:49 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: press ctrl-x (to exit nano) and you'll be prompted to save the file | 13:50 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: command not found | 13:53 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: you're not using kubuntu? | 13:54 |

| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: sudo nano/etc/apt/sources.list | 13:55 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: there's a space between nano and /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:56 |
| Guest61528 | ah | 13:56 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: sudo --> run the following command with superuser rights | 13:56 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: nano --> a command line text editor | 13:56 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: /etc/apt/sources.list --> path to the file that shall be edited | 13:56 |

| hyper_ch | Guest61528: just add a new line there | 14:00 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: maybe my generator helps you a bit: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch | 14:00 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: at the very bottom? | 14:00 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: yes | 14:00 |
| badzero | asoo hab geglaubt ich bin in kubuntu-de sory | 14:00 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: what is the line that you are told to add? | 14:00 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: it should begin with: deb http://.... | 14:00 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: or dep-src http://..... | 14:01 |
| hyper_ch | deb-src of course and not dep-src ^^ | 14:01 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt etch main #WineHQ - Debian 4.0 "Etch" | 14:02 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: i think this what i need to add | 14:03 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: that would be for Debian Etch | 14:03 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: not for Ubuntu | 14:03 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: what ubuntu version are you using? | 14:03 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: so ubuntu and kubuntu are the same? | 14:03 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: for repos they are | 14:04 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: the base system is the same | 14:04 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: im using kubuntu 8.10 | 14:04 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: they juse use different default programs and settings | 14:04 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: add this then: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt intrepid main | 14:04 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: and in the terminal run then this command (best to copy'n'paste it): wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - | 14:04 |
| Guest61528 | hy still mot sure how to add it? | 14:05 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: just add this line at the end of that file | 14:05 |
| lexer | вау | 14:05 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: use copy'n'paste | 14:05 |
| lexer | а кто по-русски говорит.... | 14:06 |

| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: now how do i exit repos? | 14:07 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: press: ctrl-x | 14:08 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: that will leave nano | 14:08 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: and you will be asked if you want to save the file "y" | 14:08 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: and what the filename shall be "[enter ]" | 14:08 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: once you're done, run: cat /etc/apt/soures.list to see whether it was really added | 14:09 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: then run this command: wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - | 14:09 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: (copy and paste it) | 14:09 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: and then you need to update the sources | 14:09 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: sudo apt-get update | 14:09 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: and then you can install wine from the newly added repos | 14:09 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: sudo apt-get install wine | 14:10 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: it works? | 14:14 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: still trying to add repo | 14:16 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: you have any problems somewhere? | 14:16 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: isnt there an easier way? | 14:16 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: "easier" always depends | 14:16 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: "easier" means that you have a comparison of different methods and you have apply some metrics to rank the outcome for each | 14:17 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: so "easier" is just dependant on those metrics and there is no "absolut easier" way | 14:17 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: i added it to the list and now im confused | 14:20 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: confused about? | 14:21 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: y it isnt working | 14:21 |
| tomus | I've been looking at KDE 4.2, and it looks like it might be ready for daily use... has anybody tried the beta? How soon will 8.10 update to 4.2? | 14:21 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: I don't know what you did so far | 14:22 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: I don't know where yuo are | 14:22 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: the whole thing would not even take 1 minute | 14:22 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: 8.10 won't officialy go for 4.2 | 14:22 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: but you can use the PPA repo | 14:22 |
| tomus | Sounds like I should skip 8.10 all together | 14:23 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: or use ppa repos like I do | 14:23 |
| tomus | When is a usable version of Kubuntu be released? | 14:23 |
| tdi_k | tomus: what's unusable in kde 4.1 ? | 14:24 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: usable depends pretty much on the metrics applied to measure it | 14:24 |
| tomus | hyper_ch: how well do the ppa repos work w/ other packages? | 14:24 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: works fine | 14:24 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: and I also can recommend the amarok neon project ;) | 14:24 |
| tomus | I'm looking for quailty and stablity, as well as some basic features, like being able to put the pannel on the side, rather than the bottom | 14:25 |
| hyper_ch | the amarok version in the official 8.10 repos lacks some basic things | 14:25 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: then you should use debian instead of ubuntu | 14:25 |
| tomus | debian? | 14:26 |
| hyper_ch | yes, debian | 14:26 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: i added the repo then when i check with cat to see if its there it says No such file or directory | 14:26 |
| cloud | 한글? | 14:26 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: what did you issue exactely? | 14:27 |

| hyper_ch | Guest61528: when you are given commands, you can just copy and paste them.... | 14:29 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: that way you will get correct spelling and stuff | 14:29 |
| tomus | hyper_ch: thanks for the tip, ~cheers | 14:29 |
| hyper_ch | tomus: debian is not so up-to-date as ubuntu but it is stable.... very stable | 14:29 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: i rechecked and yes i did copy and paste | 14:30 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: no, you did not | 14:30 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: what you pasted here is not what I have given you | 14:30 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: i know that is what it is telling me back | 14:31 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: I asked you what command you have entered | 14:31 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: and you have given me: [15:28] <Guest61528> hyper_ch: cat: /etc/apt/soures.list | 14:32 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: cat /etc/apt/soures.list | 14:32 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: good... now I made a mistake.... it's: sources and not soures | 14:32 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: cat /etc/apt/sources.list | 14:33 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: it showed up that time | 14:33 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: good | 14:34 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: now import the gpg keys by issuing: wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - | 14:34 |
| Guest61528 | hyper_ch: its working so far | 14:36 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: now update the list: sudo apt-get update | 14:37 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: and then install the new wine: sudo apt-get install wine | 14:37 |

| mrunagi | nvidia-177-modaliases | 15:14 |
| mrunagi | ? | 15:14 |
| eagles0513875 | dunno if you look up there is another one nvdia glx 177 | 15:15 |
| mrunagi | says its installed | 15:15 |
| mrunagi | but it isnt activated | 15:15 |
| eagles0513875 | mrunagi reboot | 15:15 |

| mrunagi | and i bet you desktop effects wont work | 15:17 |
| eagles0513875 | mrunagi did you restart it normally after driver installtion it requires a reboot | 15:17 |
| eagles0513875 | Guest61528 try the link above | 15:17 |
| mrunagi | it forces you to | 15:17 |
| eagles0513875 | ya usually it pops up saying reboot required | 15:18 |
| mrunagi | so i have to restart again | 15:18 |
| eagles0513875 | mrunagi i would try wouldnt hurt | 15:18 |
| mrunagi | brb | 15:18 |
| Guest61528 | what would be the best distro for a pIII with 512 ram? | 15:19 |
| eagles0513875 | kubuntu Guest61528 | 15:19 |
| eagles0513875 | Guest61528 what are you wanting to do with it first of all | 15:19 |
| eagles0513875 | for a server i would recommend ubuntu server | 15:20 |
| hyper_ch | as server I'd recommend debian | 15:20 |
| eagles0513875 | hyper_ch whats wrong with ubuntu-server | 15:20 |
| Guest61528 | eagles0513875: as much as possible | 15:20 |
| hyper_ch | eagles0513875: I like stable servers | 15:20 |
| hyper_ch | eagles0513875: and debian is just rock stable | 15:20 |
| eagles0513875 | hyper_ch and ubuntu server is as well | 15:20 |
| hyper_ch | eagles0513875: older packages but on a server you don't need newest whizz.... | 15:21 |
| eagles0513875 | Guest61528 so you plan on using this as a server right | 15:21 |
| acke_ | hey guys, in gnome usb is mounted with gnome-volume-manager, how is that done in kde? | 15:21 |
| eagles0513875 | Guest61528 you need to try out various distros | 15:21 |
| Guest61528 | eagles0513875: no just a pc | 15:21 |
| eagles0513875 | acke_ this is kubuntu channel #ubuntu would be where u wanna go | 15:21 |
| eagles0513875 | Guest61528 i like kubuntu | 15:22 |
| hyper_ch | p3, 512 mb ram.... hmmm... I'd rather use xubuntu or arch with kde | 15:22 |
| mrunagi | restricted manager still doesnt show any drivers activated | 15:22 |
| Guest61528 | eagles0513875: im currently using kubuntu but seems a little slow | 15:22 |
| eagles0513875 | i dunno mrunagi that is weird might want to check for bugs against jockey-kde | 15:22 |
| hyper_ch | Guest61528: if you like KDE then I'd try Arch with KDE.... should be faster.... but it's not "as easy" as kubuntu | 15:23 |
| eagles0513875 | Guest61528 there is a way you can rebuild kde and optimize it for your hardware | 15:23 |
| acke_ | eagles0513875: yes, since you guys in kubuntu dont answer kubuntu qauestions? | 15:23 |
| mrunagi | this is annoying | 15:23 |
| eagles0513875 | acke_ we do | 15:23 |
| eagles0513875 | mrunagi :( | 15:23 |
| acke_ | eagles0513875: you make me confused | 15:23 |
| eagles0513875 | acke_ join the #ubuntu channel for gnome suppor | 15:23 |
| acke_ | eagles0513875: the ppls at ubuntu just told me to ask my question here. and y make me want to ask ubuntu about kubuntu questins | 15:24 |
| Guest61528 | eagles0513875: and how would i go about doing that couse i like kubuntu? | 15:24 |
| acke_ | how does usb drives get automounted in kubuntu | 15:24 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about automount | 15:24 |
| eagles0513875 | acke_ not sure | 15:25 |
| eagles0513875 | Guest61528 is this nick registered | 15:25 |

| eagles0513875 | hyper_ch normally they do | 15:27 |
| acke_ | hyper_ch: i want them automounted | 15:27 |
| hyper_ch | so, need to add another thing to my repo generator :) | 15:27 |

| eagles0513875 | when i vnc into my linux box with krfb it shows up but its like i have no control when i have it setup for full control once i type my password it also shows up blurry and i cant click on anything | 15:29 |
| BluesKaj | srry eagles ...vnc isn't my strong suit . maybe someone else can help | 15:30 |
| _2 | also, sometimes, putting things in the form of a question helps. but not always | 15:31 |
| _2 | so anyone in here know of a linux distro that isn't compiled against libselinux1 ? | 15:38 |
| eagles0513875 | Daisuke_Ido can u help me | 15:39 |
| mrunagi | why is my xorg so empty | 15:41 |
| eagles0513875 | mrunagi dunno | 15:43 |
| marius_ | hello people | 15:43 |
| marius_ | pls help | 15:43 |
| acke_ | i am trying to automount usbdrives, some webpages mentions umask= 0 0 0, some mention fmask and dmask, anyone knows the difference or the purpose of those options? | 15:44 |
| marius_ | webcam not working in kopete under kubuntu 8.10 | 15:44 |
| _2 | mrunagi that's the new xorg way, moving toward a totally automated configuration without user control (like windows) at the present you can still use the config file and specify anything you want, but the dirrection is to totally obsolete the config | 15:44 |
| marius_ | any known sollutions_ | 15:44 |
| marius_ | ? | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, intrepid relies on HAL generic drivers at the outset | 15:44 |
| _2 | !webcam | does this have a trouble shooting section ? | 15:44 |
| ubottu | does this have a trouble shooting section ?: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 15:44 |
| mrunagi | sigh...........i just want to use my video drivers i cant seem to activate them | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, nvidia ati or ...? | 15:45 |
| mrunagi | nvidia | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | which nvidia ? | 15:46 |
| mrunagi | 7800 gs | 15:47 |
| helio_ | quit | 15:47 |
| mrunagi | 7800 go gs | 15:47 |
| marius_ | well, the problem is only with kubuntu 8.10, my webcam showed fine in kubuntu and ubuntu 8.04 | 15:47 |
| marius_ | now it only shows some colours | 15:48 |
| marius_ | no shapes | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, open adept and type you card model into the searchbar , then look in properties to see if your card is listed | 15:48 |
| mrunagi | the drivers are installed | 15:49 |
| mrunagi | just not activated | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | ok , then open kmenu/applications/system/hardware drivers to activate | 15:50 |
| acke_ | is there a way to test the configurations in fstab without rebooting the comp? | 15:50 |
| eagles0513875 | when i vnc into my linux box with krfb it shows up but its like i have no control when i have it setup for full control once i type my password it also shows up blurry and i cant click on anything | 15:50 |
| mrunagi | thats the issue, it doesnt activate | 15:50 |
| mrunagi | it says downloading for a second then goes away and then nothing | 15:50 |
| acke_ | where does logs from when fstab is run at startup be found? | 15:51 |
| eagles0513875 | acke_ /var/logs | 15:52 |
| _2 | acke_ is that logged ? | 15:53 |
| mrunagi | any ideas BluesKaj? | 15:54 |
| _2 | acke_ i thought mount only outputted if it failed so there shouldn't be a log specific to fstab | 15:54 |
| Xand3r | hey ho | 15:54 |
| Xand3r | where i can get qdbusviewer | 15:54 |
| _2 | btw 'fstab' is never "run" it's a config file fstab=file system table | 15:55 |
| _2 | acke_ at any rate you can do something like sudo mount -va | 15:56 |
| === ole_ is now known as ole__ | ||
| mrunagi | so how are the desktop effects in intrepid...........id love to see them but unfortunately i cant lol | 15:57 |
| acke_ | _2 thx | 15:57 |
| ole__ | hej een eller anden mrevidende end jeg. Jeg søger een der ved noget om compilering og makefiler | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, I think you have the wrong driver ...have you checked adept listing or nvidia 7800gs ? | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | or=for | 15:58 |
| mrunagi | there is no listing for 7800gs | 15:58 |
| _2 | ole__ LC_ALL='C' <your command here> | 15:58 |
| BluesKaj | did you check properties of the nvidia -kernel sources ? | 15:58 |
| mrunagi | where do i do that | 15:59 |
| eagles0513875 | BluesKaj when i had intrepid on my desktop in europe didnt have this issue with my 8800gt O_o | 16:00 |
| BluesKaj | in adept , when you type nvidia 7800gs , there will be a list generated called kernel-souces | 16:00 |
| acke_ | aaargh i am hateing right now.. ...... the fuckn website says use this command to get uuids ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ , then when ive added it to fstab, and run mount -a , it says that the uuids doesnt exist.. how the hell should shit work if it doesnt work... gRRRRFRGRGRGRG | 16:01 |
| mrunagi | i dont see kernel sources | 16:01 |
| acke_ | *FruStraTioN* | 16:01 |
| eagles0513875 | !language | acke_ | 16:01 |
| ubottu | acke_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 16:01 |
| acke_ | and as always i dont have time to really fix stuff.. have to go.. TT | 16:02 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, are you using 'search' ? | 16:02 |
| mrunagi | yes | 16:02 |
| mrunagi | i see nvidia-common *-71-madaliases -96 -173 -177, xserver-xorg-video-nv smartdimmer jockey-kde jockey-common | 16:02 |
| _2 | so, research indicates that debian made coreutils depend on libselinux1 for the sole purpose of developing a debian selinux, i.e. the only way selinux could be developed was if libselinux1 was absolutely required, so now there is no option, if you use debain or any dirivative, you are forced to use libselinux1. like it or not. | 16:03 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, you don't see a list on the right like nvidia71-kernel-source ? | 16:03 |
| deamoon | guys plz tell me how can i install something from .tar file? | 16:04 |
| deamoon | file name is Vuze_Installer.tar.bz2 how can i install it? | 16:04 |
| marius_ | ppl help with my webcam in kubuntu 8.10 | 16:05 |
| mrunagi | no | 16:05 |
| marius_ | the 8.10 cannot show my webcam properly | 16:05 |
| deamoon | any 1 plz | 16:06 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: azureus is in the repos | 16:06 |
| hyper_ch | marius_: is your webcam supported? | 16:07 |
| deamoon | but not the version 4 | 16:07 |
| bazhang | !webcam > marius_ | 16:07 |
| ubottu | marius_, please see my private message | 16:07 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, then you need to upgrade your sources list , by enabling the thirdparty software tab in adept and all the sources in that list | 16:07 |
| deamoon | how can i upgrade it | 16:07 |
| deamoon | ? | 16:07 |
| marius_ | well, it worked very well under kubuntu and ubuntu 8.04 | 16:08 |
| marius_ | the problem is with the 8.10 | 16:08 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you should stick to the versions in the repos - | 16:08 |
| deamoon | ii c | 16:08 |
| deamoon | ok | 16:08 |
| deamoon | ty | 16:08 |
| deamoon | hyper | 16:08 |
| BluesKaj | mrunagi, then do a : sudo apt-get update , in the konsole | 16:08 |
| hyper_ch | marius_: hmmm..... is the webcam even recognized? | 16:08 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you can try to compile it on your own... but it requires more knowleged and you might be required to compile dependencies and stuff | 16:09 |
| marius_ | well, it shows some colours and some fade shapes | 16:09 |
| deamoon | damn i have no clue how to do that | 16:09 |
| marius_ | but it works super under previous versions | 16:09 |
| deamoon | cool | 16:09 |
| deamoon | its ok | 16:09 |
| deamoon | than | 16:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it's not THAT difficult... well, it depends on what you compile... I use rtorrent as torrent client and it's easy to compile | 16:10 |
| === braam is now known as NagWolf | ||
| deamoon | r torrent petter than vuze? | 16:10 |
| deamoon | i got k torrent but i doesn work | 16:10 |
| _2 | www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/selinux-guide/selg-preface-0011.html <<< note the arguments against DAC are the primary arguments for MAC but the args against DAC are as lame as they come, namely "someone might misconfigure their system, and make a security breach" i'm like "so?" is this just another "big brother watching out for all the lesser humans" ? | 16:11 |
| mrunagi | ok its updated | 16:12 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: I like rtorrent because it's command line only and hence very light | 16:13 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and I can fully control it when I have ssh access | 16:13 |
| deamoon | i c | 16:13 |
| deamoon | im not that good | 16:13 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you don't need to be good at it | 16:13 |
| deamoon | so its better to stick to vuze than | 16:13 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: well, depends on what you want to do ;) | 16:13 |
| deamoon | i cant do fok all | 16:14 |
| deamoon | lol | 16:14 |
| deamoon | linux is like deep forest for me | 16:14 |
| mrunagi | a forest that likes to burst into flames randomly | 16:14 |
| deamoon | im getting use to it | 16:14 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: what do you need the torrent client to do? | 16:14 |
| deamoon | but its hard if i need to do stuff | 16:14 |
| deamoon | download | 16:15 |
| deamoon | and seed | 16:15 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: only be challenging things you improve your knowledge :) | 16:15 |
| Schuenemann | I believe any client does that | 16:15 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: if that's all, then rtorrent is not difficult | 16:15 |
| deamoon | what else i can do with it | 16:15 |
| deamoon | ? | 16:16 |
| Schuenemann | have you tried ktorrent? | 16:16 |
| deamoon | yes | 16:16 |
| Schuenemann | you didn't like it? | 16:16 |
| deamoon | it stoped working | 16:16 |
| Schuenemann | what do you mean? | 16:16 |
| deamoon | dunno y | 16:16 |
| deamoon | well its not downloading anythink | 16:17 |
| deamoon | at all | 16:17 |
| deamoon | says no seeds or something else | 16:17 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: people like to move completed torrents into other directories | 16:17 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: or make time based activation of certain torrents | 16:17 |
| hyper_ch | or or or | 16:17 |
| Schuenemann | try adding a torrent with seeds and see if it works | 16:17 |
| deamoon | well ys i need to move tu specified folder fortorrents that i have made | 16:18 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: rtorrent isn't really diffcult | 16:18 |
| deamoon | ok lets try if u cn help me | 16:18 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it's actually very powerfull but it requires a bit of learning | 16:18 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: well, you should also learn about screen if you want to run rtorrent ;) | 16:19 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: but that's simple | 16:19 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: first: sudo apt-get install screen | 16:19 |
| _2 | wow, the more i read about selinux the more i hate it. | 16:19 |
| _2 | i'm off to build a kernel without MAC support | 16:19 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: second, install rtorrent from svn (or rather compile it). I made a little howto here: http://www.howtoforge.com/compile-rtorrent-from-svn-ubuntu-8.04-hardy-heron | 16:20 |
| === ass_ is now known as hole | ||
| hyper_ch | deamoon: no private support | 16:22 |

| hyper_ch | deamoon: actually, it's not good... it will copy the line numbers also | 16:47 |
| deamoon | right | 16:47 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: don't save it yet | 16:47 |
| deamoon | k | 16:47 |

| deamoon | ? | 16:50 |
| deamoon | number | 16:50 |
| deamoon | all this 1.2.3 etc | 16:50 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: which version did you now copy and paste? | 16:50 |
| deamoon | yours | 16:50 |
| hyper_ch | good | 16:50 |
| v-dogg | evening folks | 16:50 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now, what is your maximum upload speed on your internet connection? | 16:50 |
| deamoon | i just didnt coppy line numbers okm | 16:51 |
| deamoon | ? | 16:51 |
| deamoon | 2.5mb | 16:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: yeah, you don't need the line numbers | 16:51 |
| deamoon | k | 16:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that's your upload? | 16:51 |
| hyper_ch | wow | 16:51 |
| deamoon | yes | 16:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: find the line: upload_rate | 16:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: found it? | 16:52 |
| deamoon | nah not yet | 16:52 |
| v-dogg | what file manager would you recommend for an ex-windows use (for kde 3.5). Dolphin lack a few important features like tree view and up-folder button | 16:52 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: line 18 | 16:52 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: upload_rate | 16:52 |
| g_ | Is there a way to find a program that's installed on your system with a simple search feature by now? | 16:53 |
| deamoon | found it | 16:53 |
| hyper_ch | g_: what program? | 16:53 |
| g_ | Ive got programs installed on the system but when i do a search for them they never find them what gives? | 16:53 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: change the 55 to 205 | 16:53 |
| deamoon | done | 16:53 |
| hyper_ch | then three lines below, you have directory | 16:54 |
| deamoon | yes | 16:54 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you see that? | 16:54 |
| deamoon | yes | 16:54 |
| Clyde | v-dogg, Konqueror | 16:55 |
| deamoon | directory = /media/rtorrent | 16:55 |
| deamoon | that yes | 16:55 |
| hyper_ch | ok, where do you want to have the base directory (where shall torrents be downloaded to? | 16:55 |
| deamoon | to deamoon torrents | 16:55 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: what folder? | 16:55 |
| deamoon | torrents | 16:56 |
| deamoon | that the folder name | 16:56 |
| deamoon | iv got | 16:56 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: torrents on your desktop or torrents in your homefolder? | 16:56 |
| deamoon | home | 16:56 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: then change it to: directory = /home/deamoon/torrents | 16:56 |
| mrunagi | desktop effects still wont work which leads me to believe that my drivers still arent working | 16:57 |
| deamoon | done | 16:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now, do you want certain config files and stuff also have as subfolder in the torrent directory or do you want to use another directory for that? | 16:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: I chose to have everything in one place | 16:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you can do it differently | 16:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: e.g. session = /home/deamoon/rtorrent/session | 16:58 |
| deamoon | ill do as u have | 16:58 |
| deamoon | les problems for me | 16:58 |
| deamoon | lol | 16:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: or in the same dir: session = /home/deamoon/torrents/session | 16:58 |
| deamoon | same | 16:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: the session is just 5 lines below the directory | 16:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: change it there accordingly | 16:58 |
| deamoon | session = /home/deamoon/torrents/session change to this right | 16:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good, now 4 lines further down you have this: schedule = watch_directory,5,5,load_start=/media/rtorrent/watchlist/*.torrent | 16:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: change that to schedule = watch_directory,5,5,load_start=/home/deamoon/torrents/watchlist/*.torrent | 17:00 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:00 |
| deamoon | done | 17:00 |
| hyper_ch | then 20 lines down, you see: bind = 10.0.0.10 | 17:01 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: do you have just one network card in your computer and you connect only to one network? | 17:01 |
| deamoon | yes | 17:02 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: then you can delete that line :) | 17:02 |
| deamoon | just that | 17:02 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: just the bind = 10.0.0.10 | 17:02 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:02 |
| deamoon | done | 17:02 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: the other lines have a # at the start | 17:02 |
| deamoon | yes | 17:02 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that means that is just a comment and not a configuration | 17:02 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:03 |
| hyper_ch | now down to line 87 | 17:03 |
| deamoon | i c | 17:03 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: dht_port = 6881 | 17:03 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: this is the standard port... if you have problems with running rtorrent because your ISP blocks it, you might need to change it. I would leave it as it is right now | 17:03 |
| deamoon | found it | 17:03 |
| deamoon | k | 17:04 |
| hyper_ch | then go right to the end | 17:04 |
| hyper_ch | on line 111 and 112 you have view_filter = .... | 17:04 |
| deamoon | k | 17:04 |
| hyper_ch | you can delete those two also... this is a custom modfication of mine | 17:04 |
| v-dogg | Clyde: thanks. konqueror is ok. | 17:04 |
| deamoon | what they do? | 17:04 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: I do have a set of "static" torrents that I seed endlessly | 17:04 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and with that filter you can set them into a seperate view | 17:05 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so you can "differentiate" between "normal" and "static" torrents | 17:05 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: in order to use that you'd need to modify the source | 17:05 |
| deamoon | but it doesn do any restrictions right | 17:05 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so either delete those two lines | 17:05 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: comment them out by adding a # at the front | 17:06 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: or alter the source | 17:06 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and recompile it | 17:06 |
| === dasha is now known as HenHime | ||
| hyper_ch | but don't leave them as it is | 17:06 |
| hyper_ch | modifying the course would not be difficult | 17:07 |
| deamoon | i comment them | 17:07 |
| hyper_ch | but if you don't know that there are torrents that you will keep seeding forever, then there's no point of having that enabled :) | 17:07 |
| hyper_ch | and the last two lines are entries on custom throttling of individual torrents | 17:07 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:07 |
| hyper_ch | my_throttle --> the name that is displayed in rtorrent | 17:07 |
| hyper_ch | and the 5 is the speed to which it gets throttled | 17:07 |
| hyper_ch | that would be 5kByte | 17:08 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now the most important things are changed, you can save the file now | 17:08 |
| deamoon | so should i svae or save as | 17:08 |
| hyper_ch | now we need to create the according directories | 17:08 |
| hyper_ch | save | 17:09 |
| === `Away`No`Pvs` is now known as Skulblaka | ||

| deamoon | its in terminal | 17:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so it did list the content in the teriminal? | 17:09 |
| deamoon | yes | 17:10 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good | 17:10 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now run: mkdir /home/deamoon/torrents | 17:10 |

| hyper_ch | deamoon: and: mkdir /home/deamoon/torrents/watchfolder | 17:10 |
| deamoon | i got that dir already | 17:10 |
| hyper_ch | it's ok if you have it already :) | 17:11 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: the session and watchfolder shouldn't exist yet I guess | 17:11 |
| deamoon | no | 17:11 |
| deamoon | not yet | 17:12 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so you created them now? | 17:12 |

| deamoon | and file in whatch | 17:29 |
| deamoon | folder | 17:29 |
| Tm_T | cool: the service behind it, bluez, got changed bit too soon for us, so kbluetooth isn't working yet | 17:29 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so, it did load it now in rtorrent and it starts downloading the file? | 17:29 |
| deamoon | no | 17:29 |
| hyper_ch | no? to which question? | 17:30 |
| deamoon | all | 17:30 |
| deamoon | :D | 17:30 |
| hyper_ch | pastebin the output of: ls /home/deamoon/torrents/watchfolder | 17:30 |
| deamoon | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com:80/93799/ | 17:31 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: sorry: my mistaked... close rtorrent again | 17:31 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and edit the .rtorrent.rc config again | 17:31 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: kate ~/.rtorrent.rc | 17:31 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: go to line 30 schedule = watch_directory,5,5,load_start | 17:32 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and change it to: schedule = watch_directory,5,5,load_start=/home/deamoon/torrents/watchfolder/*.torrent | 17:32 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: in the config it's named watchlist | 17:32 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and we created now watchfolder | 17:32 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so it won't recognize it of course :) | 17:33 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: pretty stupid of me :) | 17:33 |
| deamoon | lol | 17:33 |
| deamoon | ok lets c now | 17:33 |
| hyper_ch | save and close the file | 17:33 |
| hyper_ch | and restart rtorrent | 17:34 |
| deamoon | yaha | 17:34 |
| deamoon | it works | 17:34 |
| hyper_ch | good :) | 17:34 |
| hyper_ch | so, basically to start downloading new torrents directly, just put them into the watchfolder | 17:34 |
| deamoon | and how can i stop it now | 17:34 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: just one torrent? | 17:34 |
| deamoon | k | 17:34 |
| hyper_ch | use the arrow keys to select the torrent | 17:34 |
| BluesKaj | hyper_ch, i don't see the point of a cli torrent client , ktorrent works very well and is easy to use , unless of course you're a CLI dude | 17:35 |
| deamoon | lets say now | 17:35 |
| deamoon | how to stop it | 17:35 |
| deamoon | ? | 17:35 |
| hyper_ch | BluesKaj: memory foot print | 17:35 |
| hyper_ch | BluesKaj: confortability of fully controlling it through ssh | 17:35 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: selected it? | 17:35 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: by using the up/down arrow keys? | 17:35 |
| deamoon | yes | 17:35 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: press ctrl+k | 17:36 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that will close it | 17:36 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: ctrl+s will restart it | 17:36 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and pressing twice ctrl+d (while started) or once while closed will remove the torrent | 17:36 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: however it will NOT delete the downloaded datafiles | 17:36 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it will just delete the .torrent file | 17:37 |
| deamoon | i c | 17:37 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: restart the torrent again | 17:37 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: I'll show you another important thing | 17:37 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: if you have restarted it, make sure it's selected, | 17:38 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: then press the right arrow key | 17:38 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you get then torrent details | 17:38 |
| deamoon | grr i deleted tor file | 17:38 |
| deamoon | lol | 17:38 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: in the file list and tracker list you can activate or deactivate certain files if the torrent has more than one or enable/disable certain trackers (like moviex) | 17:39 |
| deamoon | w8 sec plz | 17:39 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: well, I just chose ubuntu torrent because I knew it was well seeded and it should download immediately after adding | 17:39 |
| deamoon | ok i c now | 17:41 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: if you have a multi tracker or multi file torrent, at the according point just press the right arrow key again | 17:41 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:41 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: press the left key again to go back to the main view | 17:41 |
| hyper_ch | when you're there, press key 1-9 (not on the numeric block but above the letters) to change the view | 17:42 |
| deamoon | ohh thats nice | 17:43 |
| hyper_ch | and with the zxc and asd keys you can lower /raise the max upload limit | 17:43 |
| hyper_ch | on the bottom left you see the limit | 17:43 |
| deamoon | how can i pause downlad | 17:43 |
| deamoon | ? | 17:43 |
| hyper_ch | it should be 205 / off for you | 17:43 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: pausing is pressing ctrl+d only once | 17:43 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: while the torrent is started | 17:43 |
| hyper_ch | or do you mean pause the complete download? | 17:44 |
| hyper_ch | I mean pausing to everything? | 17:44 |
| deamoon | nah when downlading | 17:44 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: a single torrent or all? | 17:44 |
| deamoon | 1 | 17:44 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: press ctrl+d just once while the torrent is started | 17:45 |
| deamoon | k | 17:45 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: however I normally close the torrent and use ctrl+k | 17:45 |
| cuznt | which ftp is better to use? | 17:45 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: because I accidentally deleted a few times a torrent :) | 17:45 |
| cuznt | !ftpd | 17:45 |
| ubottu | FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP | 17:45 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: got any question to rtorrent this far? | 17:46 |
| === kesada is now known as kesadaa | ||
| === kesadaa is now known as kesada | ||
| hyper_ch | cuznt: those are ftp servers... not clients | 17:46 |
| deamoon | so ctrl+k stops torrent downlad | 17:46 |
| cuznt | right | 17:47 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it closes a torrent | 17:47 |
| cuznt | so which is the best client to use then pls | 17:47 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: this means it will also move loaded chunks from memory | 17:47 |
| hyper_ch | cuznt: depends... you can use konqueror or if you want a pure ftp client, use kftp | 17:47 |
| hyper_ch | cuznt: or filezilla | 17:47 |
| === Skulblaka is now known as `Away`No`Pvs` | ||
| deamoon | and how can i pause torrent up and down | 17:47 |
| cuznt | thanks | 17:48 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: easiest is to close it: ctrl+k | 17:48 |
| deamoon | i c | 17:48 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and continue with ctrl+s | 17:48 |
| deamoon | i presed ctrl k | 17:48 |
| deamoon | and it still uploading | 17:48 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: the status did not change to [CLOSED] ? | 17:49 |
| deamoon | yes it did | 17:49 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it takes a little while | 17:49 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: the speed is an average | 17:49 |
| deamoon | ohh now it stoped | 17:49 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so it first needs to adjust | 17:49 |
| deamoon | i c | 17:49 |
| deamoon | its nice stuff u know | 17:50 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: any more questions right now about rtorrent? | 17:50 |
| deamoon | well its prety clear at a moment | 17:50 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good... because we have one huge problem | 17:50 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: if you close the terminal now | 17:50 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it will also close rtorrent | 17:50 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that's where "screen" comes into play | 17:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: screen can be defined as "terminal multiplexer" | 17:51 |
| deamoon | aha | 17:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: bascially screen allows you to run multiple terminals within itself | 17:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it's very simple to handle (I'll also give you some links afterwards | 17:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: (1) close rtorrent | 17:51 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: (2) start screen by entering "screen" into the terminal | 17:52 |
| === juan is now known as nikita | ||
| deamoon | u mean ctrl+q | 17:52 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: (3) you will get some text on the screen (ignore it just now) | 17:52 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: yes, ctrl+q | 17:52 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: (4) you will see then a "blank" terminal again | 17:52 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: addon for (3) --> press enter | 17:52 |
| deamoon | hm | 17:53 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: ? | 17:53 |
| === vito_ is now known as vito__ | ||
| deamoon | an that text i presed space bar | 17:53 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: tht works also I think | 17:53 |
| nikita | hola | 17:53 |
| deamoon | k | 17:54 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so you started "screen" and you have now an empty terminal before you? | 17:54 |
| deamoon | deamoon@deamoon-desctop:~/rtorrent/trunk/rtorrent$ | 17:54 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: great | 17:54 |
| deamoon | thats what i got at a moment | 17:54 |
| hyper_ch | now start rtorrent | 17:54 |
| hyper_ch | it will be started in screen then | 17:54 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:55 |
| hyper_ch | now press the following: ctrl+a & ctrl+c | 17:55 |
| deamoon | and how cna i use termional | 17:55 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: what do you mean? | 17:55 |
| === piotrek is now known as kozborn | ||
| deamoon | i mean if i need to use terminal for aptitude | 17:56 |
| deamoon | or so | 17:56 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: we're getting there :) | 17:56 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: press: ctrl+a & ctrl+c | 17:56 |
| deamoon | i did | 17:56 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now you should have a blank termianl again, right? | 17:56 |
| deamoon | deamoon@deamoon-desctop:~/rtorrent/trunk/rtorrent$ | 17:56 |
| deamoon | thats the line i got | 17:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good, what we did is the following: | 17:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: ctrl+a --> that command said that it shall address "screen" | 17:57 |
| deamoon | k | 17:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: ctrl+c --> that command then said to screen that it shall create another virtual terminal | 17:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: maybe you want to monitor your system also a bit | 17:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: there are two tools, top and htop | 17:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: top is installed by default | 17:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: htop is not but is nicer | 17:58 |
| nikita | hello | 17:58 |
| deamoon | ok | 17:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now issue: sudo apt-get install htop | 17:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: let me know when you're done :) | 17:58 |
| deamoon | k | 17:58 |
| deamoon | donne | 17:58 |
| hyper_ch | launch htop by issuing: htop | 17:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you should get a colorfull screen | 17:59 |
| hyper_ch | with the processes listed | 17:59 |
| deamoon | htopyes | 17:59 |
| hyper_ch | cpu used | 17:59 |
| hyper_ch | memory usage | 17:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: right? | 17:59 |
| deamoon | yes | 17:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now let's do some screen magic | 17:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: remember, in screen terminal 1 we have rtorretn running | 18:00 |
| deamoon | its like task manager on windows right | 18:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: in screen terminal 2 we have htop running | 18:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now press: ctrl+a & n | 18:00 |
| deamoon | ok | 18:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that means again (ctrl+a) send command to "screen" and "n" cycle to the next virtual terminal | 18:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you should be back at rtorrent now | 18:00 |
| deamoon | im in rtorrent | 18:00 |
| hyper_ch | right? | 18:00 |
| deamoon | yes | 18:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now press again ctrl+a & n | 18:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and you're at htop | 18:01 |
| deamoon | yes | 18:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: for heaven's sake we open now a third virtual terminal | 18:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: press again ctrl+a & ctrl+c | 18:01 |
| deamoon | i did already | 18:01 |
| deamoon | lol | 18:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and cycle through them again | 18:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: with ctrl+a & n | 18:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: all works, right? | 18:02 |
| deamoon | :D | 18:02 |
| deamoon | yes | 18:02 |
| hyper_ch | now, let's assume you have screen running at home | 18:02 |
| hyper_ch | and you are at school | 18:02 |
| hyper_ch | and you want to check how it goes | 18:02 |
| deamoon | ok | 18:02 |

| deamoon | ok | 18:07 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: to check this, enter this command: screen -ls | 18:07 |

| hyper_ch | deamoon: right? | 18:07 |
| deamoon | yes' | 18:07 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good, now we detach that screen | 18:07 |
| deamoon | k | 18:08 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: run: screen -d | 18:08 |
| === r3n4tun1x is now known as r3n4tun1x_ | ||

| hyper_ch | deamoon: and now attach with. screen -r | 18:08 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: cycle through the virtual screen termianls to check if everything is right | 18:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: ctrl+a & n | 18:09 |
| deamoon | ohh it does work | 18:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good :) | 18:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now just for fun | 18:09 |
| deamoon | very impresed | 18:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: close both real terminals | 18:09 |
| deamoon | ok | 18:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and afterwards open a new one | 18:09 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: run again. screen -ls | 18:09 |
| deamoon | k | 18:10 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you see, it's detached now | 18:10 |
| deamoon | yes | 18:10 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so you can directly attach to it: screen -r | 18:10 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that works also, right? | 18:10 |
| deamoon | i got back | 18:10 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good :) | 18:10 |
| deamoon | ye | 18:11 |
| deamoon | it does | 18:11 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now you can also manually detach screen by issuing: ctrl+a & d | 18:11 |
| deamoon | done | 18:11 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good :) now you got the essential tools together | 18:11 |

| hyper_ch | deamoon: (those two links got me hooked with screen and rtorrent) | 18:13 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: then of course the rtorrent homepage: http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/ | 18:13 |
| ubuntu_ | So has anyone tried ext4 here yet? | 18:13 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: especially the user guide: http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/wiki/RTorrentUserGuide (remember, mentioning of ^.... means ctrl+.....) | 18:13 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and rtorrent common tasks: http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/wiki/RTorrentCommonTasks | 18:14 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that should help to answer most questions :) | 18:14 |
| deamoon | it will | 18:14 |
| deamoon | omg | 18:14 |
| deamoon | so much info | 18:14 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: last but not least, here there's also a rtorrent support channel: #rtorrent :) | 18:15 |
| deamoon | ty hyper | 18:15 |
| gir_ | Sorry to bother, is there anyone around who can help me with an nvidia drivers saga (intrepid)? | 18:16 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now a few other things | 18:16 |
| deamoon | k | 18:16 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: .torrent files still try to open with vuze, right? | 18:16 |
| deamoon | no | 18:16 |
| deamoon | ohh i dont know | 18:16 |
| deamoon | now | 18:16 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: not anymore? you fixed that already? | 18:16 |
| deamoon | nah | 18:16 |
| deamoon | w8 i check | 18:16 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: :) | 18:16 |
| deamoon | lol | 18:16 |
| deamoon | no its not | 18:17 |
| deamoon | its ok now | 18:17 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good... then to use the true power of rtorrent and screen is to be able to ssh into your box | 18:17 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: are you behind a router? | 18:17 |
| deamoon | yes | 18:17 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and do you actually want to be able to connect from everywhere to your box? | 18:18 |
| deamoon | it would be nice | 18:18 |
| hyper_ch | good :) | 18:18 |
| deamoon | ol | 18:18 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: install openssh-server and denyhosts: sudo apt-get install openssh-server denyhosts | 18:18 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: openssh-server is the actual sever that lets you connect from outside | 18:19 |
| deamoon | ok | 18:19 |
| hyper_ch | denyhosts is a anti-bruteforce tool | 18:19 |
| deamoon | like ftp? | 18:19 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: no, it will be like a terminal | 18:19 |
| EnMasse187 | guys need uber helps with amarok | 18:19 |
| deamoon | ok | 18:19 |
| deamoon | done | 18:19 |
| hyper_ch | EnMasse187: #amarok | 18:19 |
| EnMasse187 | i set it up today | 18:19 |
| EnMasse187 | >_> | 18:19 |
| EnMasse187 | first ubuntu says kubuntu | 18:19 |
| EnMasse187 | now kubunut says amarok | 18:19 |
| EnMasse187 | >_________________________________> | 18:19 |

| hyper_ch | EnMasse187: or should I have directed you back at #ubuntu ? ^^ | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | yes | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | please | 18:20 |
| hyper_ch | EnMasse187: #amarok is the best try... there are amarok developers in there | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | i went into amarok and said | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | need uber helpz | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | :) | 18:20 |
| hyper_ch | EnMasse187: you don't say that | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | i think that was why | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | i was directed | 18:20 |
| hyper_ch | EnMasse187: you normally say what the problem is | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | what do i say then? | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | i also asked in wine, they said how is that wine related | 18:20 |
| EnMasse187 | XD | 18:20 |
| gir_ | is there a channel for nvidia stuff around here? | 18:21 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: denyhosts will auto-ban ip addresses that try too often to connect to your ssh server without proper logins | 18:21 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so rule 1 is: have not a simple password | 18:21 |
| deamoon | ok | 18:21 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: if you follow tht, then they cannot just guess the password | 18:21 |
| deamoon | k | 18:22 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: I mean they would also need to know the username (which is already hard) | 18:22 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: just making sure your box won't get hacked | 18:22 |
| deamoon | :) | 18:22 |
| deamoon | lol | 18:22 |
| hyper_ch | gir_: not sure if it's linux based nvidia | 18:22 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so you normally want to auto-ban IP addresses that try to often to get in ;) and that's what denyhosts does | 18:22 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: the next thing you need to do is to forward port 22 from your router to your box | 18:23 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: I assume your box has a dedicated IP? | 18:23 |
| deamoon | ok | 18:23 |
| deamoon | yes | 18:23 |
| hyper_ch | gir_: no private query | 18:23 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: that's all there is needed | 18:23 |
| brazila | hi | 18:23 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now you can access your box through ssh | 18:23 |
| hyper_ch | hello brazila | 18:23 |

| brazila | anyone could help | 18:23 |

| brazila | ? | 18:24 |

| hyper_ch | brazila: mind-reading is not a skill that many people posses... so telling the issue could help | 18:24 |
| EnMasse187 | guys hey | 18:24 |
| EnMasse187 | guess what | 18:24 |
| EnMasse187 | amarok is not helping | 18:24 |

| hyper_ch | brazila: no clue what ares is | 18:29 |
| brazila | oO | 18:29 |
| brazila | by the way, thank you very much for help me | 18:30 |
| hyper_ch | brazila: does ares use it's own p2p protocol? or is it just an edonkey program? | 18:30 |
| HappySmileMan | brazila: I think ares is only for Windows | 18:31 |
| brazila | ah | 18:31 |
| brazila | i thought it | 18:31 |
| hyper_ch | it might run through wine | 18:31 |
| brazila | too | 18:31 |
| hyper_ch | if you really want ares | 18:31 |
| deamoon | ok will | 18:31 |
| hyper_ch | but if it's an edonkey program, then just use frostwire | 18:31 |
| brazila | :S | 18:31 |
| dstar | ... okay, weird. Last night I wasn't getting sound from konversation, now I am. Oh well, it works. | 18:31 |
| brazila | didnt install | 18:31 |
| hyper_ch | brazila: what did not install? | 18:32 |
| brazila | frostwire | 18:32 |
| hyper_ch | brazila: why not? | 18:32 |
| brazila | here said that is impossible | 18:32 |
| dstar | Does anyone know if there's a fix for the slow window resizing problem? Googling didn't help, and I can't use my KDE session when it takes 5-6 seconds to resize a window. | 18:32 |
| brazila | to choose | 18:32 |
| hyper_ch | !pastebin | brazila | 18:32 |

| hyper_ch | brazila: copy the whole output from the terminal into pastebin | 18:33 |
| PhilRod | dstar: fwiw, beta nvidia drivers helped things for me, although window resizing is still slowish | 18:33 |

| deamoon | creen -r | 18:56 |
| deamoon | ? | 18:56 |
| deamoon | screen | 18:56 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: screen -d (to detach) | 18:56 |
| deamoon | oh | 18:56 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: and screen -r to reattach | 18:56 |
| deamoon | so in linux terminal now | 18:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: doesn't matter if you try to reattach the screen | 18:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: while it's not detached... you'll just get an error then ;) | 18:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so, rtorrent and htop are still running? | 18:57 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: now "from" the windows box? | 18:57 |
| deamoon | k | 18:57 |
| eli__ | Hm, anyone? | 18:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so this works? | 18:58 |
| deamoon | yes | 18:58 |
| deamoon | i thinks so | 18:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: good :) | 18:58 |
| deamoon | detached | 18:58 |
| deamoon | it | 18:58 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: so, if you setup portforwarding on the router correctly, you can now login from work also | 18:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: next is to download winscp --> http://www.winscp.com | 18:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it's free and open source software | 18:59 |
| deamoon | i does work | 18:59 |

| eli__ | hi guys, I need some help with my webcam. | 18:59 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it's like a ftp client - but works over a ssh connection | 19:00 |
| deamoon | ohh | 19:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: pro: all the transferred packages are encrypted | 19:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: con: it's a bit slower due to encryption and package overhead | 19:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: pro: it works great and you only need to open one port to use ssh with putty and winscp :) | 19:00 |
| deamoon | but will mine parents be able to connectto it | 19:00 |
| deamoon | ? | 19:00 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: they will also need need winscp and an account (or use your account) | 19:01 |
| deamoon | ok | 19:01 |
| deamoon | i sec than | 19:01 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: but if you want setup with more people, you might be better off to setup a real ftp server | 19:01 |
| eli__ | is anyone alive here? | 19:02 |
| hyper_ch | eli | 19:02 |
| deamoon | u mean another p? | 19:02 |
| deamoon | pc | 19:02 |
| hyper_ch | eli__: no clue... my webcam works out of the box | 19:02 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: no, not another computer... just another "server" on the box you have now | 19:02 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: ssh is also a "server" | 19:03 |
| deamoon | ok | 19:03 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: a "server" in linux is just a program that waits to "server" something to someone that enters a request (e.g. like a webserver, ssh-server, ftp-server, ts2-server, vnc-server, .....) | 19:03 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it's confusing as dedicated boxes are also called servers | 19:04 |
| deamoon | ok | 19:04 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: you got winscp? | 19:04 |
| deamoon | i need it just on win box? | 19:04 |
| deamoon | or on linux | 19:04 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: yes | 19:04 |
| deamoon | k | 19:04 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: just windows | 19:05 |

| deamoon | i thinks so | 19:15 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: well, generally it's adviced to set it to 80-90% of your amx upload | 19:15 |
| deamoon | lol | 19:15 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: as you have 2.5mbit you could go to 90% | 19:15 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: right now it's set to 80% | 19:15 |
| deamoon | ok | 19:15 |
| hyper_ch | deamoon: it's up to you on how you want to tweak it | 19:15 |

| jone_ | also Adept doesn't show any upgrade possibilities | 20:05 |
| snarkster | your trying ti upgrade to old a version | 20:05 |
| snarkster | there are some changes you need to make, but sorry Im not sure which ones you need to make | 20:06 |
| snarkster | !upgrade | 20:06 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 20:06 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | 6.10? You Might want to go download a newer release -- Unless that was a typo ... :) | 20:06 |
| runpain2 | crimsum that work i just added the options line no logo true and when i booted up no logo | 20:06 |
| snarkster | or read that page ubottu just showed | 20:07 |
| runpain2 | Thanks for showing me that little trick | 20:07 |
| snarkster | no logo?? howto | 20:07 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | i alwyas enable the nvidia logo :) i want to see it.. to be sure my drivers are being used | 20:09 |
| jone_ | yes it was 6.10 unfortunately | 20:10 |
| snarkster | oh.. nvidia logo. | 20:10 |
| snarkster | jone follow that link ubottu posted and it will help you | 20:10 |
| snarkster | just so you know ahead of time you have to upgrade several times | 20:10 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | jone_, you are going to be llooking at like.. err.. several 100+mb of updates.. sort of like downloading each install cd, over agbain. | 20:11 |
| jone_ | likely to get messy? | 20:11 |
| snarkster | no not really.. just take some time | 20:11 |
| jone_ | just having issues with the cd burner | 20:11 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | jone_, i would STRONGLY suggest getting a newer iso/release issue. You can make a bootable/install able thimbdrive with 'unetbootin' | 20:11 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | No cd needed :) | 20:11 |
| snarkster | right well there are several ways to just use an iso and a usb flash drive | 20:11 |
| jone_ | isn't the usb flash drives tricky as hell? | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | jone_, run unetbootin, point it to the iso , clock go.... | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | click go... | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | :) | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | wait a few min.. poof. bootable usb thumbdrive | 20:12 |
| snarkster | oh no!!! I use mine all the time to assist people in recovery issues. | 20:13 |
| snarkster | i created mine from pendrivelinux.com | 20:13 |
| jone_ | the javascript on kubuntu.com is causing my konqueror to hang :/ | 20:13 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | i got a 4gb thumbdrive with persistant storage - made via the usb-boot-media tool in 8.10 | 20:13 |
| jone_ | but ok, thanks a lot, I will download a new release now | 20:13 |
| snarkster | Dr_Willis_AAO Awesome | 20:13 |
| snarkster | jone good luck | 20:14 |
| jone_ | thanks all of you :) | 20:14 |

| snarkster | how do you force logoff a user through a SSH connection? | 20:17 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | snarkster, kill their shells is one way :) | 20:17 |
| snarkster | i want to update my sons machine but it says that someone else is using the update process.. | 20:17 |
| snarkster | I dont see any adept or synaptic processes in the pgrep | 20:18 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | snarkster, f may be easier to just make machine reboot. | 20:18 |
| snarkster | true | 20:18 |
| snarkster | but if he is updating then that will screw up the update | 20:18 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | ask him eot look at the screen i guess and see whats running? | 20:19 |
| Dr_Willis_AAO | if no processes are running - it maybe a bad lock file. or somthing | 20:19 |

| ert3 | Hey I tried to install 8.04 over 8.10 | 21:36 |
| ert3 | and for some reason I still have 8.10 | 21:36 |
| Evolution2 | you cant degrade | 21:36 |
| Evolution2 | unless you delete the partition conpletely | 21:36 |
| jone_ | "A write error occured" - Goddamnit it never works when I try to burn cd's with K3b (I guess it's a hardware problem) | 21:45 |
| Evolution2 | jone_: i think so | 21:46 |
| jone_ | and when I installed UNetbootin from a .deb file i have no idea how to start it | 21:46 |
| ert3 | So if I where to manually make the partitions that would remove the old ones so I could down grade? | 21:53 |
| Evolution2 | right | 21:53 |
| Evolution2 | pop in a live ubuntu live cd | 21:53 |
| ert3 | cant | 21:53 |
| ert3 | less than 384 | 21:54 |
| Evolution2 | oh | 21:54 |
| Evolution2 | hmm | 21:54 |
| Evolution2 | thats a problem | 21:54 |
| ert3 | I told the alt install CD to do a guided partitioning | 21:54 |
| Evolution2 | hmm | 21:54 |
| Evolution2 | i was gonna suggest partition editor | 21:54 |
| Evolution2 | remove it and reinstall with the older version live cs | 21:55 |
| Evolution2 | cd | 21:55 |
| ert3 | hmmm | 21:55 |
| ert3 | I could boot up | 21:55 |
| ert3 | manually delete all partitions | 21:55 |
| ert3 | reboot | 21:55 |
| ert3 | do it again to be doubly sure | 21:55 |
| ert3 | then install | 21:55 |
| Evolution2 | yea | 21:56 |
| ert3 | or I could just go DOD on the fucker and 7 pass rape the drive | 21:57 |
| ert3 | that would get it clean | 21:57 |

| jone | I installed 6.10 because I only had a very old CD - Now I am unable to burn a new CD because of hardware issues, is there any way to start installation from 6.10 by mounting the ISO file of the 8.10 version? | 22:16 |
| hyper_ch | no | 22:16 |
| hyper_ch | jone: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/edgy/ | 22:19 |
| hyper_ch | but it's not supported anymore | 22:19 |
| jone | what do you mean? i just want to upgrade | 22:19 |
| jone | or rather, just install 8.10 | 22:20 |
| PuRA | oi | 22:20 |
| jone | I heard upgrading from 6.10 to 8.10 would be a pain | 22:20 |
| hyper_ch | jone: ah, you don't want to reinstall 6.10 | 22:20 |
| jone | I am unable to burn a new cd from this computer, and when I burn from a different computer (also different brand), it appears as an "empty cd" in the drive | 22:20 |
| p_quarles | jone: it would be impossible at this point | 22:20 |
| hyper_ch | jone: do you have a usb pendrive? | 22:21 |
| p_quarles | jone: if you can't burn a CD, you'll need to look into an alternative way of getting it | 22:21 |
| snarkster | do you have a flash drive? | 22:21 |
| p_quarles | jone: if a friend can burna CD for you, that would be great; otherwise, a flash drive, a network boot (would require another computer) or you'll have to request a CD from Canonical | 22:21 |
| jone | Yes I have a flash drive, and yes I installed Unetbootin or what it was called.. but when I choose it during startup I get weird behaviour.. the screen starts flickering and the first options dialog is scrolling through the monitor in an intense speed (impossible to read what the options are) | 22:22 |

| hyper_ch | jone: PXE could also be an option | 22:22 |
| hyper_ch | jone: but that depends on the computer you try to install to | 22:22 |
| snarkster | jone you can use a 1 gig flash drive to create a installable install | 22:23 |
| PuRA | #urubuntu-br | 22:23 |
| PuRA | ok? | 22:23 |
| p_quarles | PuRA: type /join #ubuntu-br | 22:23 |
| snarkster | or you can download the iso of 8.10 and then goto pendrivelinux.com to learn how to create a installable flashdrive that way | 22:23 |

| emma | any ideas how to get knetworkmanager to actually connect to a signal that it sees? | 23:13 |
| emma | i have an UNSECURED wifi here in the house, kubuntu sees it, but i can't make anything connect. | 23:14 |
| emma | is there perhaps a way to do this with a cli tool or something? | 23:14 |
| cllaudyu | can someone help me with Konversation how can i add another irc server to it? | 23:15 |
| xjjk | emma: AFAIK, no | 23:16 |
| cllaudyu | and how can i save it | 23:16 |
| xjjk | cllaudyu: should be easy... what are you having problems with? | 23:16 |
| HappySmileMan | cllaudyu: File > Server List > New... | 23:16 |
| emma | there must be a way to connect to a wifi signal without a gui | 23:16 |
| emma | iwconfig maybe? | 23:16 |
| xjjk | emma: well, yes, but with knetworkmanager | 23:16 |
| xjjk | or network manager in general | 23:16 |
| emma | is knetworkmanager just broken in kubuntu then? | 23:16 |
| cllaudyu | first i want to find out how to send a messange to a nickname on main chat | 23:16 |
| xjjk | emma: not likely... it's probably something characteristic to that wifi network/your machine | 23:17 |
| cllaudyu | i don't want to write a nick every time | 23:17 |
| crimsun | emma: sure, you can use iwconfig (from wireless-tools) or wpasupplicant | 23:17 |
| crimsun | emma: does knetworkmanager spit out any debug info/ | 23:17 |
| emma | well this signal is not secured. and knetworkmanager DOES see it there, it shows the ESSID and strong signal but there is no indication of how to connect. | 23:18 |
| xjjk | emma: er, click the menu entry? | 23:18 |
| xjjk | what happens when you try to select it | 23:18 |
| cllaudyu | what is Bookmarks for in Konversation? it saves the irc channel? | 23:18 |
| emma | what do you mean click the main entry? | 23:18 |
| emma | when i select it, nothing happens. | 23:18 |
| xjjk | check for debug info.. | 23:18 |
| xjjk | usually in /var/log/messages or syslog | 23:19 |
| emma | it's just about the most outrageous thing i've seen. | 23:19 |

| emma | i'll give it another chance but i think it's pretty hopeless. | 23:21 |
| emma | the difficult thing is, i'm dual booting here so i'm using windows to chat with you now. Whatever advice you give I have to restart and try it in kubuntu. | 23:22 |
| xjjk | ugh | 23:22 |
| emma | and if it doesn't work i have to restart and boot all over again to come back here. | 23:22 |
| === eric is now known as Guest3716 | ||
| emma | so it sounds like 'try to find bug report' | 23:22 |
| xjjk | emma: thanks for mentioning... you probably want to try to find a few different ways to get online | 23:23 |
| xjjk | and try to fix within linux rather than rebooting all the time | 23:23 |
| crimsun | i recommend virtualbox + kubuntu | 23:23 |
| emma | there's no way. | 23:23 |
| xjjk | emma: how do you know... | 23:23 |
| xjjk | have you tried connecting via the CLI/raw wpa_supplicant? | 23:23 |
| xjjk | I actually use wpa_supplicant myself... knetworkmanager isn't there for me yet | 23:23 |
| cllaudyu | it's surprising for me to see everything working fine without crashes | 23:24 |
| xjjk | emma: setting up wpa_supplicant is a bit of a headache, though | 23:24 |
| crimsun | using iwconfig is fairly painless, however. | 23:25 |
| cllaudyu | i spoked to soon A Fatal Error Occurred | 23:25 |
| xjjk | mm, yah, it's a network without any encryption/auth, correct emma? | 23:25 |
| cllaudyu | The application Plasma Workspace (plasma) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). | 23:25 |

| jone | but it is visible in /proc/partitions | 23:28 |
| emma | xjjk: yes no security | 23:28 |
| xjjk | emma: the braindead way to connect with iwconfig (not robust) | 23:29 |
| xjjk | exit knetworkmanager | 23:29 |
| xjjk | sudo iwconfig # check what your wireless if is | 23:29 |
| xjjk | sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "your essid" # if wlan0 was your wireless interface | 23:29 |
| emma | that sounds like it's workable. | 23:29 |
| xjjk | sudo dhclient wlan0 # fetch IP via DHCP, if using DHCP | 23:30 |
| emma | put the essid in quotes? | 23:30 |
| xjjk | this isn't robust at all, and it not working does not mean you cannot get it to work | 23:30 |
| xjjk | if the essid contains a space, yes | 23:30 |
| emma | it does not. | 23:30 |
| xjjk | without quotes is fine | 23:30 |
| emma | i'll try iwconfig | 23:31 |
| xjjk | emma: if you want to go the wpa_supplicant route... | 23:31 |
| xjjk | emma: hold | 23:31 |
| emma | okay | 23:31 |
| xjjk | emma: so, Debian/Ubuntu have a networking mode called wireless roaming | 23:32 |
| xjjk | you configure it all via text files | 23:32 |
| xjjk | and it uses wpa_supplicant, no GUI | 23:32 |
| xjjk | not that you need one... | 23:32 |
| xjjk | if you've a new network, you add to a config file | 23:32 |
| xjjk | and wpa_supplicant automatically connects if in range | 23:33 |
| emma | knetworkmanager needs to be fixed. | 23:33 |
| xjjk | eh it needs to be made more reliable | 23:33 |
| xjjk | and report errors | 23:33 |
| xjjk | not that Windows or OS X are any better | 23:33 |
| xjjk | you'll get an error "can't connect" but usually there's little you can do about it | 23:34 |
| xjjk | emma: see /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.modes.gz | 23:35 |
| xjjk | read the details on setting up "roaming mode" | 23:35 |
| SJr|Nbook | Is there some reason I get an error "Invalid Argument 'Ad-Hoc'" error when I try to issue iwconfig ath0 mode Ad-Hoc | 23:35 |
| xjjk | SJr|Nbook: the atheros driver is a PITA, and does stuff differently | 23:36 |
| SJr|Nbook | Ah | 23:36 |
| xjjk | the error is self-explanatory... the driver doesnt support ad-hoc model like that | 23:36 |
| SJr|Nbook | what should I do? | 23:36 |
| xjjk | there's this other way to do it, not via iwconfig | 23:36 |
| xjjk | see madwifi's website | 23:36 |
| SJr|Nbook | Should I try and use the ndiswrapper? | 23:37 |
| xjjk | I've never used ndiswrapper myself but stories tell me no, avoid it if you can | 23:37 |
| xjjk | linux-native drivers will almost always be better | 23:37 |
| jone | Could anyone see screenshot? http://skittent.net/~enoj/kubuntu-installer.png - Trying to install Kubuntu using these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux ( got partition where I placed the contents from the cd and edited grub to boot from this partition (booting from partition is (0,4)) - sda1 never appears in the install to the right in the screenshot | 23:38 |
| SJr|Nbook | thanks xjjk | 23:39 |

| Hydrant2 | Hello all... strange issue with Kubuntu 8.10... when I put in a CD, isn't it supposed to come up with a menu of actions? | 23:39 |
| Hydrant2 | it doesn't for me on this install, and I think I might be missing a package or something is wrong | 23:39 |
| venom_ | c'est fr ici | 23:42 |
| SJr|Nbook | xjjk is there something else I need to do to be able to see the ad-hoc network after it's up as adhoc | 23:42 |
| genii-around | venom_: Non. #kubuntu-fr | 23:42 |
| venom_ | lol | 23:42 |
| xjjk | SJr|Nbook: don't think so... I haven't done this in a long time | 23:42 |
| venom_ | tu comprend bien le français pour un us | 23:42 |
| SJr|Nbook | Hmmmm maybe I'll try this in windows first | 23:43 |
| xjjk | you followed all the instructions on the madwifi website right? | 23:43 |
| SJr|Nbook | Yeah | 23:43 |
| SJr|Nbook | it's up | 23:43 |
| genii-around | venom_: Canadian | 23:43 |
| SJr|Nbook | but it's not broadcasting | 23:43 |
| SJr|Nbook | and I can't join it. | 23:43 |
| venom_ | tu connais pas moobu par azard | 23:43 |
| genii-around | venom_: English only here svp | 23:44 |
| xjjk | SJr|Nbook: don't think I can help you with that... check madwifi's support? | 23:44 |

| crimsun | Roey: sudo pkill timidity | 23:50 |
| Roey | I tried. | 23:50 |
| Roey | one sec. | 23:50 |
| Roey | still no go, crimsun | 23:50 |
| metalman1673 | how can i change from the gome desktop to the kde desktop?????? | 23:50 |
| Roey | brb | 23:50 |
| crimsun | Roey: what are you testing to determine "no go"? | 23:51 |
| metalman1673 | can anyone give me a hand | 23:51 |
| crimsun | metalman1673: did you install kubuntu-desktop ? | 23:51 |
| emma | im back. | 23:52 |
| xjjk | emma: how'd it go? | 23:52 |
| emma | xjjk -- i wsa just over to kubuntu again, when i did sudo iwconfig it did not list any valid signals. | 23:52 |
| xjjk | emma: it did not list any network interfaces | 23:52 |
| xjjk | ? | 23:53 |
| crimsun | you don't need to wait til it's listed if you know the essid | 23:53 |
| emma | xjjk: yeah not really. | 23:53 |
| emma | but it's eth1 | 23:53 |
| xjjk | emma: that's odd.. | 23:53 |
| xjjk | oh, well OK | 23:53 |
| xjjk | did the rest of the steps work? | 23:53 |
| emma | its eth1 i can tell that from knetwork manager which does find the signal and even shows that it's strong but then the icon never lights up and says it's disconnected. | 23:54 |
| emma | kjjk no they did nothing. | 23:54 |
| Roey | crimsun: mpg123 | 23:54 |
| xjjk | emma: what did trying to get an IP via DHCP do? | 23:54 |
| xjjk | time outs? | 23:54 |
| xjjk | you should get errors | 23:54 |
| xjjk | if something is wrong | 23:55 |
| emma | i didn't try that, i don't remember what to do there. | 23:55 |
| crimsun | Roey: did you actually kill timidity? | 23:55 |
| xjjk | emma: it was the last line I gave you, sudo dhclient eth1 | 23:55 |
| crimsun | Roey: i.e., do you need to sudo /etc/init.d/timidity stop ? | 23:55 |
| Roey | yes | 23:55 |
| Roey | yes and mpg123 still gives me those errors | 23:55 |
| emma | xjjk, just sudo dhclient eth1 ? | 23:55 |
| xjjk | emma: yes | 23:56 |
| daz_ | Hi everyone. I want to use rdiff-backup, and I was just wondering if, as well as replacing changed/removed files, it removes file that weren't originally backed up (like a system restore point) | 23:56 |
| willy | hey any good yahoo programes to chat | 23:56 |
| xjjk | emma: without having run that, you'd not have an IP address | 23:56 |
| Roey | hey emma | 23:56 |
| emma | anything else i should type there because every time i try i have to reboot twice. | 23:56 |
| xjjk | the iwconfig step only associates with a wireless network | 23:56 |
| metalman1673 | how can i change from gome to kde | 23:56 |
| xjjk | emma: just to recap... | 23:56 |
| Hydrant2 | when people here put in a CD, does it pop up a menu like in KDE 3 for them (on Intrepid) ? | 23:56 |
| xjjk | sudo iwconfig eth2 essid "your essid" | 23:57 |
| emma | but it's eth1 isn't it> | 23:57 |
| xjjk | sudo iwconfig eth2 # make sure eth2 it using that essid (may not necessarily be connected) | 23:57 |
| xjjk | er, sorry, eth1 | 23:57 |
| xjjk | sudo dhclient eth1 | 23:57 |
| xjjk | to get an IP | 23:57 |
| emma | in that order? | 23:57 |
| xjjk | you should have Internet access after that | 23:57 |
| xjjk | yes | 23:57 |
| daz_ | metalman1673: Do you want to completely ditch Gnome, or have both Gnome AND KDE available? | 23:57 |
| emma | okay. | 23:57 |
| xjjk | err, blah, and make sure you exit knetworkmanager | 23:57 |
| emma | i'm going to write it down in pencil. | 23:57 |
| xjjk | before doing any of this | 23:57 |
| willy | here dude http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde | 23:58 |
| xjjk | (1) turn off knetworkmanager (2) sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "your essid" (3) sudo dhclient eth1 | 23:58 |
| xjjk | that is the minimum | 23:58 |
| willy | its tell u how to do it | 23:58 |
| Roey | crimsun: yes and mpg123 still gives me those errors | 23:58 |
| crimsun | Roey: is timidity still running, though? | 23:59 |
| crimsun | Roey: you'll continue to get those errors if timidity is running. | 23:59 |
| willy | does any 1 know what a good programe to run on yahoo | 23:59 |
