exothermcYa I never have tried to figure out a linux desktop.  I'm sure they work fine, but I just use them as servers and keep x11 off them.00:00
ugafor ex, when I plug my mobilephone, it wants it to be the main networking interface00:00
ugaI wonder if it could manage using gprs00:00
exothermcughhhhh00:00
ugabut I hope not! (my mobile is charged only through usb)00:00
ugathus I suggest killing networkconfig =)00:01
ugaand doing manually00:01
webbii just found that to solve my problem i need to update some libraries, for example: kdebase-workspace-4.1.80-10 to 4.1.8500:01
webbihow could i do that in kubuntu?00:01
ugawebbi: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?00:01
ugatht would update all packs00:01
exothermcuga: The next challenge is to get the sessions from konsole 3.5 to 4.100:01
webbiuga i tried but it says that it's up-to-date00:02
webbiis there anyway that i can force it?00:02
webbior maybe i need some new source with those versions00:02
ugawebbi: did apt-get update show any errors?00:02
ugaor did you try any different mirrors?00:02
ugaI wouldn't suggets installing separate packages manually. possibly stuff will break00:03
ugawebbi: anyway, if you can download the .deb, you can install it (at your own risk) using "dpkg -i packagename.deb"00:03
webbiuga: you are right... i will try00:04
webbior continue searching00:04
webbiuga: do you know where is the source code of (for example) lancelot launcher on kubuntu ? so i try to recompile it00:05
hallownameuga: kdeplasma-addons? or is lancelot in base now?00:06
webbihallowname: im not sure, because i just update and they appear... but suppose they are in kdeplasma-addons, where should i look for it in my pc?00:06
webbior there is some -dev package?00:07
hallownamewebbi: you didn't compile it from source? i dunno what package it's in...00:07
ugawebbi: I install everything from svn source00:08
hallownamewebbi: mine's under /free/kdesvn/kdeplasma-addons/applets/lancelot, so maybe (if you have the right source packages), you can search for kdeplasma-addons00:10
webbihallowname: hmmmmm i will go there to take a look00:10

ncfi1013_"KLauncher could not be reached via D-Bus. Error when calling start_service_by_desktop_path: empty." is this some thing i should worry about? what does it mean? if i should worry about it, how do i fix it?00:18

scythefwddo a clean shutdown from windows.  If the fs isn't unmounted cleanly, it can cause problems with the resize operation.00:25

scythefwdfirefox won't start after I use a dhclient eth1, anyone have any clues where to look for the problems.  It attempts to start, but nothing comes from it.  The curser just goes away and I don't get my FF :(00:33
PhilRod_scythefwd: did you try starting it from a konsole? Do you get any errors there?00:35
scythefwdI got a popup that said that my firefox session closed unexpectedly, do I want to start a new one?00:36
scythefwda couple minutes later00:36
antiquarkscythefwd: Open the System Monitor, and see if you can find firefox there. I you do, kill it and try to start it again00:38
scythefwdhey, firefox from the cli started, but it isn't responsive.  it literally wont respond00:39

alex789hi, I'm having a problem booting from my raid1 array. Basically the mdadm.conf found in the initrd image is wrong. I tried to boot with the live cd, unpacked initrd, edited mdadm.conf, packed it back, but I'm getting an error about the filesystem when I try to boot with that initrd01:04
dsmith_hmmmm, I was going to tell treyk4 he has to pay for the extra composting effects, :)01:04
alex789can you guys point me to a resource about editing files inside initrd ?01:04
dsmith_alex789: hardware or softeware raid?01:05
alex789software01:05
dsmith_ouch, i hate those01:05
marek_when kde 4.2 will be released?01:05
dsmith_i always use 3ware hardware raid cards01:05
alex789can't afford one :)01:05
dsmith_heh, I know they aren't cheap01:06
dsmith_marek_: I dont know01:06
dsmith_alex789: what board?01:06
alex789I used software raid so that I won't be in trouble if the card breaks01:06

alex789I think m2n01:07
witakrcan someone help me figure out why my wired internet connection isnt working?01:07
alex789yep, asus m2n-mx01:08
alex789the raid used to work fine, but I am trying to replace all the hdds in it, so now I ran in trouble01:08
alex789since the old partitions I used for the old array aren't correct anymore, and mdadm.conf still uses the old partions, so when it tries to mount, poof can't do cuz only 1 out of 3 is still there (running raid5)01:09
dsmith_hmmmmmmmmmm, thats beyond me01:09
alex789so my problem is telling initrd exactly which partions are now used for which arrays01:09
dsmith_im drawing a big blank01:10
alex789beyond me also heh01:10
alex789I unpacked/edited/repacked initrd-generic01:10
alex789but when I try to boot off it, I get an error about the file system not being correct or something like that01:11
dsmith_perhaps you could email the manufacturer/01:11
dsmith_put new drives01:11
dsmith_er...wit that wont work01:11
dsmith_duh01:11
dsmith_raid 1 you say?01:11
alex789boot is raid101:12
alex789 / is raid501:13
alex789so I go to the livecd, mount /boot01:13
dsmith_why'd you mount /boot on on raid 1? why not everything in raid 5?01:14
dsmith_I knwo this isn;t helping you, I am just curious01:15
alex789it's overhead for boot to do it on raid501:16
dsmith_oh ok01:16
alex789I have it as raid1 with a spare, so it's easy01:17
dsmith_alex, you may want to post on the forums01:18
dsmith_i am sure someone will see it and be able to assist you01:19
alex789I'll poke around some more and see what google says heh01:22

sancho21_After I installed Kubuntu 8.10 amd64, I think I'm gonna back to 8.04. This is the reason: There is a command in kde-base (I forgot the name. But it has more than 6 chars) which eat 50% of my memory; The old bash script is not running anymore; It blinks every 3 or 4 secs.01:54

So, QDialog is unavailable, for instance. Google reveals no common "import qt" problems, which suggests either most people install qt+pyqt from source or that I'm doing something uncommonly wrong.

dmmainouthanks.. assuming it finishes mounting correctly how do I fix the wireless to make it work....10:53
elliottwell that depends on what's wrong with the wireless10:54
cstonerI'd assume it's a NAT issue (most wireless "problems" are...). Make sure the ports for AoE are forwarded correctly10:54

antu_it seems like linux doesnt use multiple processors for a single task... is there a way to change this?14:00
OxDeadC0deantu_ depends on how the task is designed, what kind of task you're talking about14:02
antu_blender, edit mode.14:02
antu_but the installation of kubuntu also..14:02
OxDeadC0deantu_ if you mean a program, if the program is threaded it could/should use multiple cpu's, if it's written asynchronous it will only use 1 cpu though14:02
antu_could it be that windows somehow get it balanced anyway?14:03
OxDeadC0deantu_ if kubuntu is only recognizing one cpu entirely, there is a problem in your kernel with some of your hardware14:04
antu_it recognizes one dualcore cpu correctly. but sometimes one core is at half load while the other is at 0% load.14:06
antu_never experienced that in the preinstalled vista.14:06
OxDeadC0deantu_ check out taskset for setting the affinity, you can force blender to use the idle cpu14:11

SSJ_GZfireball_: Change them from root to your user.14:45
fireball_should i mention this is a ntfs drive?14:46
fireball_Otherwise, I'm not sure how?14:46
fireball_access permissions? X on "user" only?14:47
SSJ_GZfireball_: You have your /home drive on an ntfs drive? That's quite unusual :) chown should work, if ntfs supports it.14:48
fireball_no, /home is normal drive, but all media storage is on windows / ntfs drive14:49
fireball_I get the error message every time I go there with an explorer14:50
SSJ_GZfireball_: Ok, so chown  /home/fireball/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml to your user.14:50
fireball_I don't quite understand?14:52
SSJ_GZfireball_: What is the name of your non-root user?14:53
fireball_isn't /home/fireball my user?14:53
fireball_fireball14:53
dr_willismentioning its a 'ntfs' drive is VERY imporntant when messing with ntfs drives. :)14:53
SSJ_GZfireball_: sudo chown fireball  /home/fireball/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml14:53
fireball_Thought it might help14:53
fireball_You guys are good, that seems to have fixed it. Any idea how this error started?14:55
SSJ_GZfireball_: Likely, running Dolphin as root.14:55
Buckethead_Hi :D14:56
wikkiwho's still drunk?14:58
fireball_excellent! Now is there a decent program to find my apps and install them into my menu? I just installed mixxx 1.6.1 and can't find it, mixxx from terminal tells me its not installed14:58
dr_willisYep.. running Dolphin as root = BAD idea..15:01
dr_willisseen that bookmarks file get locked many a times doing that15:01
fireball_hmm, sudo nautilus better idea?15:02
jpedrozaCan anyone tell me which package I should install to get the sftp kio slave working in Intrepid? I am trying to use Quanta and it just throws an error when I try and connect to a server running sftp.15:02
dr_willislearnign to do root tasks from the terminal ==== BEST IDEA15:02
fireball_probably, which reminds me, app finder/menu installer?15:03
dr_willisall it takes is one miss click with a GUI FIle manager as root = oops.. i dident realize that window was ROOT.. now i just deleted  my system...15:03
fireball_veritas15:03
jpedrozaThere is a KIO slaves package for Gutsy, but I haven't found one for Hardy or Intrepid. Am I just missing something, or is this still a bug to be addressed?15:07

ActionParsnip(23:33:01) bahaa: when pressing any key on keyboard23:44
jmacdonaghbahaa: i had that same issue. what hardware are you running?23:44
bahaaSilicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter23:45
jmacdonaghi had to upgrade my dell bios23:45
bahaai don't have this problem on Gnome23:45
jmacdonaghit happened on my dell mini23:45
jmacdonaghworked fine in gnome, acted all weird in kubuntu23:45
jmacdonaghdoes the computer kind of slow down a little when the screen dims?23:45
bahaado u mean i have to install the S3 Driver and don't relay on VESA Drivers23:46
jmacdonaghmine had nothing to do with display drivers. i had an integrated intel card23:46
bahaano23:46
bahaait's normal23:46
bahaamy vga is integrated also23:46
jmacdonaghhmm.... well its strange that we had the exact same issue. it might be two different causes with the same symptoms. can you check if there is a bios update available for your mainboard?23:47
bahaathis is my desktop pc23:47
bahaabut it works fine in gnome and even in windows23:47
bahaalet me try yo install s3 driver23:48
jmacdonaghi know, the same thing happened with me23:48
jmacdonaghyeah, go ahead and try that23:48
bahaait's not related to bios anymore23:48
jmacdonaghi think kde (specifically powerdevil) might be sending weird signals23:48
jmacdonaghanyway, a bios update on my dell mini fixed the issue 100%23:48
bahaashould i try the driver form reproisetry23:48
bahaaor get another one23:49
jmacdonaghrepo is your best bet23:49
bahaaok23:49

jmacdonaghso is anyone using the beta 2 kde 4.2 packages on 8.10?23:50
DragnslcrYup23:51
ActionParsnipjmacdonagh: used to, hated it and ran back to the apron strings of 4.1 + fluxbox23:51
jmacdonaghDragnslcr: are you able to change your time zone or use NTP from the system settings?23:52
DragnslcrDunno, haven't tried. Let me check23:52
jmacdonaghwhen i try to make any changes there it says "Cannot change date / time" and a couple other things. looking at the backtrace it says that its incorrectly trying to call kdesu23:52
jmacdonaghi submitted to the kde team but they said it was a kubuntu issue23:53
bahaajmacdonagh: the driver is alredy install23:53
bahaahow i can activate it23:53
DragnslcrWell, I can't change my timezone without having NTP enabled23:54
jmacdonaghbahaa: click on the kde button and search for Hardware Drivers at the top23:54
jmacdonaghDragnslcr: do you get error messages back?23:54
bahaajmacdonagh:23:54
DragnslcrYeah23:55
Dragnslcr"Unable to contact time server..."23:55
DragnslcrThen "Can not set date" and "Error setting new time zone."23:55
jmacdonaghDragnslcr: that's the one. if you run systemsettings in console you'll see it spit stuff back about kdesu23:55
bahaajmacdonagh: done23:55
jmacdonaghbahaa: does it show your driver? you might need to click on it and click Activate23:56
bahaajmacdonagh: get empty list23:56
jmacdonaghbahaa: oic23:56
Soliloquialsomehow I screwed up the graphics when I resize windows...I see black bars popping up everywhere...anyone know how this is fixable?23:56
jmacdonaghbahaa: hold on23:56
Dragnslcrjmacdonagh- yup, "kdesu: Unknown option 'attach'."23:56
bahaajmacdonagh: i can submit my xorg.conf23:57
jmacdonaghDragnslcr: so, do you know the proper channel to report these kinds of problems? it looks like the kubuntu team wanted me to report it here23:57
jmacdonaghbahaa: yeah, go ahead23:57
jmacdonaghhttp://kubuntu.pastebin.ca/23:57
Dragnslcrjmacdonagh- you could try the mailing list, see if it's already a known issue23:58
bahaajmacdonagh: http://home.bahaa.biz/downloads/xorg.conf23:59
jmacdonaghDragnslcr: will do, thanks for confirming with me23:59
jmacdonaghfor me* i guess is the correct way of saying it ;)23:59
