| FisherPrice | mrdigital: it looks like there's a lot of problems with the 8.10 live cd | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Stalker72 | yeah :P | 00:00 |
| FisherPrice | mrdigital: just a question... you wouldn't have an nvidia card would you? | 00:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Stalker72: c966147dda3bd6139db507af054692ee ./netboot/mini.iso | 00:01 |

| Stalker72 | ActionParsnip: OOOhh.. :P | 00:03 |
| Stalker72 | ActionParsnip: Sorry for being n00b. ;) | 00:03 |
| FisherPrice | mrdigital: it looks like many nvidia fans are getting similar problems... i assume u've checked the cd for errors... others have burned the cd iso to dvd... | 00:04 |
| mrdigital | the md5 matches | 00:04 |
| mrdigital | and yes i burned the iso to a dvd | 00:04 |
| FisherPrice | mrdigital: I've tried booting the livecd with "Safe Graphics" with mixed success | 00:04 |

| mrdigital | sometimes it does | 00:08 |
| Stalker72 | ActionParsnip: md5sum: ./mini.iso: No such file or directory | 00:08 |
| DasEI | mrdigital: cd iso for cd, dvd-iso for dvd | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Stalker72: you need to run the command when the terminal path is in the same folder as where you downloaded the iso to | 00:08 |
| ghostcube | hmm alternate cd image works fine for installation on dvd rom | 00:08 |
| c0debr8ker | i burned cd iso to dvd and it worked......... wouldnt install burning it to cd for me | 00:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Stalker72: or you can specify the full path to the file | 00:09 |

| ActionParsnip | Stalker72: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/105749/ | 00:15 |
| ActionParsnip | remember that | 00:15 |
| ActionParsnip | so you know the image is good | 00:15 |
| Stalker72 | yeah | 00:15 |
| Stalker72 | thx | 00:15 |
| Stalker72 | now I try to boot to it? | 00:15 |
| ActionParsnip | yeah oot the image in a vm or burn to cd and boot to that | 00:16 |
| Stalker72 | I have burned it. | 00:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ok boot to the cd and off you go | 00:16 |
| Stalker72 | ActionParsnip: Do you think that will solve the problem? :P | 00:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Stalker72: its just another way to install, it may work | 00:16 |
| mrdigital | i put kubuntu 8.10 live cd in a virtual machine it still does it | 00:17 |
| Stalker72 | ActionParsnip: I'll try it right before I go to bed. Cya and thx! :) | 00:17 |

| gerald | i dont have a System/Administration/Update Mana | 00:17 |
| gerald | to upgrade from kubuntu 6 to 8 | 00:17 |
| gerald | ;/ | 00:17 |
| gerald | System/Administration/Update Manager | 00:18 |
| gerald | i do a sudo apt-get install update-manager-core | 00:18 |

| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 00:19 |

| mrdigital | aha diff cheksum | 00:19 |
| DasEI | gerald: as Dr_willis said, fresh installs are always safer, but after that, : sudo update-manager-core ?? | 00:19 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: bad image then as long as you are reading the right md5sum | 00:20 |
| Dr_willis | I never have figured out how you make the cd image boot and be able to checksum itself.. It you put a checksum file on the cd.. How did the checksum get calculated without that file being there in the first place | 00:20 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: if its bad you gotta redownload | 00:20 |
| gerald | i dont want to clear my partition;/ | 00:20 |
| mrdigital | 24ea1163ea6c9f5dae77de8c49ee7c03 is that the right checksum | 00:20 |
| DasEI | mrdigital: you get the correct sum from the place you d/l 'ed the iso from | 00:21 |
| mrdigital | which is kubuntu.org | 00:21 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: thats the ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso | 00:21 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: not kubuntu | 00:21 |
| mrdigital | can someone point me to the right checksum | 00:22 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: what filename do you have? | 00:22 |

| philsf | I don't know what I did, but now every event I create in kontact is a groupware event, with me as atendee and organizer. Disabling groupware in the korganizer preferences doesn't stop this behavior. How can I disable this? | 00:31 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: what video card? | 00:31 |
| ActionParsnip | philsf: i dont use it myself, good decription though, maybe someone else can help | 00:32 |
| m_tadeu | is it possi ble to get the external ip from my router? | 00:32 |
| ActionParsnip | philsf: have you tried uninstalling with --purge and also removing all config for kontact (if this will not destroy data) | 00:33 |
| philsf | ActionParsnip: I didn't. I assume It's a matter of my personal config, rather than the package's | 00:34 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: cd ~/; wget -q http://checkip.dyndns.org/; cat ~/index.html | 00:34 |
| philsf | am I m missing something? | 00:34 |
| ActionParsnip | philsf: then reinstall it if you suspect the package | 00:34 |

| Dr_willis | gerald, ive never done that task.. so i cant say. Follow the docs and see I guess. | 00:36 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: that card is hugely supported: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177 nvidia-settings nvidia-177-kernel-source; kdesudo nvidia-settings | 00:36 |
| FisherPrice | ActionParsnip: but mrdigital can't get the livecd to boot | 00:37 |
| PSiL0 | !fstab | 00:37 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 00:37 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: if you get a message about nvidia-xconfig, close the app and run: sudo nvidia-xconfig and restart x server, then rerun kdesudo nvidia-settings | 00:37 |
| FisherPrice | mrdigital: can you get the livecd to boot with the "Safe Graphics" mode? | 00:37 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: check ram for errors | 00:37 |
| ActionParsnip | mrdigital: also try disabling acpi and dma | 00:38 |

| mrdigital | working fine off onboard | 00:39 |
| m_tadeu | ActionParsnip: thanks | 00:40 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: np bro, its not graceful but it works ;) | 00:41 |
| m_tadeu | ActionParsnip: I was hopping for a linux command :) but....it does the job | 00:41 |
| stodge | I can't get sound to work under 8.04 - the correct driver (snd-usb-caiaq) is loaded, but it's not being used. If I select ALSA in system configuration, the sound server crashes. Selecting OSS does nothing. Any ideas? | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: theres the full script which works to remove the extra gumf from the file | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: the linux command will show the ip of the local interfaces | 00:42 |
| m_tadeu | ActionParsnip: yup....I was hopping for an unknown harcore linux command, hehe | 00:44 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: you can use that stuff in the page and write it to a script, then run the script whenever you want to know the ip | 00:45 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: you could run the script but add a line to cat the file, then rm the file so it's like it never existed | 00:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ;) | 00:46 |
| m_tadeu | yes :) thanks | 00:47 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: will teach you some scripting shizz | 00:48 |
| stodge | Why is sound so hard to get working under linux and kde | 00:49 |
| m_tadeu | ActionParsnip: I never deal very well with bash :P | 00:50 |
| FisherPrice | bash is cool... much better than doss | 00:50 |
| FisherPrice | lol | 00:50 |
| m_tadeu | FisherPrice: too used to non-scripting languages, I guess | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | dos is pathetic in comparison | 00:51 |
| FisherPrice | yeah, | 00:51 |
| FisherPrice | I've dabbled in most | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | if you use windows and want power, install powershell | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | powershell is badass | 00:51 |
| FisherPrice | yeah the only way to get any power in windows dos is by 3rd party add-ons | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | we use powershellat work to ask all our sql servers if their backups passed and rerun whatever hasnt passed | 00:52 |
| faileas | er... windows dos? | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | its powershell | 00:54 |
| m_tadeu | stodge: what are you finding hard? | 00:54 |
| ActionParsnip | powershell > dos | 00:54 |
| BluesKaj | msdos maybe | 00:54 |
| faileas | FisherPrice: only cause linux is (in one aspect) designed around a terminal... | 00:54 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip: i need to learn that at some point | 00:54 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: you wont regret it | 00:54 |
| stodge | m_tadeu: trying to get sound working on 8.04. | 00:54 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip: i just need to find the time, oh, and to feel like using my windows box ;p | 00:55 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: theres a #powershell n freenode :) | 00:55 |
| FisherPrice | faileas: yes, from the ground up it's sorta based around the terminal as a gateway to the kernal | 00:55 |
| FisherPrice | i guess | 00:55 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip: i still need to use windows ;p | 00:55 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/powershell | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: no need for windows :) | 00:56 |
| faileas | .... wha? | 00:56 |
| m_tadeu | stodge: maybe you should try the #alsa for better info | 00:56 |
| stodge | maybe I should | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: no foolin | 00:56 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip: lol. would it work with yakuake? ;p | 00:57 |
| m_tadeu | what's all about powershell? | 00:58 |
| cuznt | my turtle has a powershell | 00:58 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: cant see why not, yakuake is the balls | 00:58 |
| faileas | m_tadeu: oh the windows version is a non retarded CLI with an awesome scripting language. apparently someone at ms decided to try catch up ;p | 00:58 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: its an awesome interface you can use to access and manipulate systems and remote systems too | 00:59 |
| m_tadeu | graphical or console? | 00:59 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: it can do anything on a system you can do locally, you can write a script to sequentially run through a text file of systems and run a certain command | 00:59 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: all console based | 01:00 |
| m_tadeu | so it's bash+ssh :D | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: its excellent when you have several hundred thosand servers | 01:00 |
| faileas | ActionParsnip: ;). can't live without it. actually its one reason why i prefer KDE over gnome | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: i just luse cli loads and use kde so yakuake is a natural option | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | faileas: if i used gnome id be all about tilda | 01:00 |
| m_tadeu | installing to check it out | 01:01 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: pretty much, we use it to check uptimes and read event viewer for issues matching a certain filter for a date range | 01:02 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: we also hit redgate with it to magage sql backups | 01:02 |
| m_tadeu | but you only need that on windows machines....? I mean...under linux it makes no advantage, right? | 01:03 |
| stodge | #alsa is dead | 01:03 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: it interfaces to windows for sure, not sure for linux servers | 01:04 |
| m_tadeu | stodge: the guys might be asleep...or out for friday night fever :) leave the question...it'll probably be answerd latter | 01:04 |
| ActionParsnip | m_tadeu: you could easily script something similar without having to install powershell on the system running the script | 01:05 |
| stodge | ok | 01:05 |
| m_tadeu | stodge: have you googled for your sound card and ubuntu? | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip | stodge: lspci will identify it | 01:06 |
| stodge | It's detected according to aplay -l | 01:06 |
| stodge | and asoundconf list | 01:06 |
| ActionParsnip | but.... | 01:07 |
| stodge | It's the third device | 01:07 |
| ActionParsnip | is it muted?# | 01:07 |

| wesley | how can i patch iso´s in linux using ppf patches | 01:14 |
| cyberponix | Does anyone know why a network card would not work after an install of linux | 01:14 |
| wesley | Acorrding the local pc seller, that would be because Linux is crap | 01:14 |
| wesley | And under Windows works everthing | 01:14 |
| wesley | According to him | 01:15 |
| cyberponix | well that local pc deal is a dumbass | 01:15 |
| cyberponix | winblows lol | 01:15 |
| wesley | I know, i came there asking for a wlan stick | 01:15 |
| wesley | Man ive problems patching my iso | 01:16 |
| cyberponix | linksys work great with linux | 01:16 |
| cyberponix | belkin works good too | 01:16 |
| ActionParsnip | wesley: your seller is ignorant | 01:16 |
| wesley | Sometimes Ubuntu is stubborn, and even when you bug it they dont include the fix ( Talking about athreos 5007eg | 01:16 |
| cyberponix | i dunno what to tell you about the iso | 01:16 |
| ActionParsnip | most linksys routers actually run a linux based OS | 01:17 |
| wesley | ActionParsnip i didnt buy it | 01:17 |
| ActionParsnip | !hcl | wesley | 01:17 |
| ubottu | wesley: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 01:17 |
| Dr_willis | wesley, I would have to ask him why i have several Network cards that dotn work under wiondows... but then again.. hes just proven that hes knows very little about things. | 01:17 |
| cyberponix | hey action... I finally got it installed!!!! | 01:17 |
| ActionParsnip | wesley: my netgear WG311T works out of the box | 01:17 |
| wesley | Dr_willis i don´t go that far agains old guys | 01:18 |

| wesley | my wlan works after installing madwifi 10.5.6 | 01:18 |
| ActionParsnip | cyberponix: sweet, wtg | 01:18 |
| cyberponix | on the acer you helped earlyier | 01:18 |
| wesley | again out of memory | 01:18 |
| ActionParsnip | cyberponix: was it the acpi thing? | 01:18 |
| Dr_willis | about the onlyu network cards ive had issues with under linux were the 8139cp/8139too ones. that often got confused and the wrong module got loaded for them.. and this One i got now - has some buggy drivers... of course Windows couldent fiure out what driver to use either. | 01:18 |
| * ActionParsnip hates acer greatly | 01:19 | |
| wesley | Acer isnt bad, but they arent great for hacking | 01:19 |
| m_tadeu | talking about athreos....yesterday I couldn't get kubuntu to work with an athreos 5001 | 01:19 |
| wesley | m_tadeu maby trying installing madwifi trunk 10.5.6 | 01:19 |
| cyberponix | no actually I had to run it in graphics safe mode 7.10 and still do the f6 and the xforcevesa | 01:19 |
| cyberponix | atheros .... oh yea my toshiba had that | 01:20 |
| m_tadeu | wifi would be the onlyy connection I could get at that moment | 01:20 |
| cyberponix | madwifi is what you need | 01:20 |
| wesley | I dont care if i have only wifi | 01:20 |
| ActionParsnip | cyberponix: well as long as you win its awesome | 01:20 |
| m_tadeu | wesley: I would have to get the sources....and I needed build-essentials and gcc to build it | 01:21 |
| cyberponix | I have not won just yet... I have no network connection .... however while winblows was installed it worked | 01:21 |
| m_tadeu | and all dependencies | 01:21 |
| wesley | Man i hate bugging on the moment, because ive relation problems, i should just look for a hot chick from uk or russiAN | 01:21 |
| wesley | m_tadeu thats right, and then make sudo make install | 01:21 |
| cyberponix | wesley you need madwifi | 01:22 |
| wesley | madwifi 10.5.6 do you need | 01:22 |
| cyberponix | that how I got my atheros working | 01:22 |
| wesley | cyberponix, sometimes you need the trunk off madwifu | 01:22 |
| wesley | thats what i did, and i reported and even posted the source, but no still not in kubuntu | 01:22 |
| PSiL0 | is there a list of DAPs that synch seamlessly with amarok? | 01:23 |
| m_tadeu | wesley: it was a fresh install....so build tools were not installed....couldn't build and couldn't get madwifi | 01:23 |
| wesley | build tools are on the live cd | 01:23 |

| m_tadeu | andypls1: if it doesn't load X, type sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change it back | 02:20 |
| Dr_willis | r2b2, i would check the MythTV forums for recies of that card and see what others think of it. | 02:20 |
| andypls1 | ok gimme some time | 02:20 |
| Dr_willis | for reviews. :) | 02:20 |
| SkEmO | how is it that if i run the kubuntu live cd it DOES detect my wireles car, but if i install it it doesent? | 02:21 |

| mefisto__ | Haza: you still there? | 02:22 |
| Haza | mefisto__: Hello sir! | 02:22 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: you trying to do video screen capture, right? | 02:22 |
| Haza | Indeed mate. I use Isyanbul | 02:23 |
| Haza | *istanbul | 02:23 |
| SkEmO | anyone has any idea? | 02:23 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: you might want to try xvidcap. it can create swf or flv directly, so no need to convert anything | 02:23 |
| Dr_willis | SkEmO, i would think its just a configurationissue then on theinstalled system | 02:24 |
| Haza | mefisto__: Its funny you say that... I already installed it a while back | 02:24 |
| Haza | I installed a couple of screen capturing software packages | 02:24 |
| mefisto__ | me too | 02:24 |
| * Haza loads it up to remind himself | 02:24 | |
| mefisto__ | istanbul is nice and easy, but xvidcap is more flexible | 02:25 |
| Haza | Ahhh i remember this one. I can't remember why i decided not to use it... | 02:25 |
| Haza | Gonna give it a test | 02:25 |
| Haza | oh wait! | 02:25 |
| Haza | I remember | 02:25 |
| Haza | mefisto__: When i click the record button the application bombs out on me :) | 02:25 |
| Haza | reasons... unknown :) | 02:25 |
| mefisto__ | ok | 02:25 |
| Haza | mefisto__: Any thoughts? | 02:26 |
| Haza | I could even make you a video of what happens using Instanbul :D | 02:26 |
| SkEmO | Dr_willis: and how can i change it? | 02:27 |
| mefisto__ | same problem here too Haza | 02:27 |
| HighHo | Haza: try lanching from konsole and see what it outputs when it crashs | 02:27 |
| Haza | HighHo: Okay mate. I'll give thata shot | 02:27 |
| Haza | mefisto__: You having the same problem? | 02:27 |
| szrhawaii | Dr_willis can you help me with a problem not sure if you ran across this yet | 02:30 |
| andypls1 | hello? | 02:30 |
| szrhawaii | I downloaded some packages then when i restart my computer it says panel error and runs my stuff in gnome setting instead of kde | 02:30 |
| Haza | HighHo: "Segmentation fault" <--- error message | 02:31 |
| Haza | Your guess is as good as mine | 02:31 |
| Haza | Im used to large error logs ;) | 02:31 |
| SkEmO | !wireless | 02:31 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:31 |
| === nicolas is now known as Bou | ||
| Dr_willis | all i do for wireless on my system is install the b43-fwcutter package and then use the icons in the panel.. enter ssid/password and away i go | 02:33 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: do you need audio? if I disable audio capture it works | 02:34 |
| HighHo | Haza: are you using kde4 or kde3? | 02:34 |
| andypls1 | m_tadeu: are u there? | 02:34 |
| Haza | HighHo: umm, might seem like a silly question.. but i cannot remember | 02:35 |
| Haza | How do i find out? :) | 02:35 |
| Haza | I installed this system 6+ months ago at least | 02:35 |
| m_tadeu | andypls1: i'm here | 02:36 |
| andypls1 | m_tadeu: i'll tell you in a minute ok | 02:36 |
| m_tadeu | ok | 02:36 |
| HighHo | Haza: its probably kde3, but you can check by opening a kde application, clicking help and then "about kde" | 02:36 |
| Haza | HighHo: 3.5.10 | 02:37 |
| Haza | mefisto__: How did you disable sound? | 02:37 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: right-click the button on the left to get to preferences | 02:38 |
| Haza | I did that aye | 02:38 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: go to multi-frame tab and switch "enable audio" off | 02:38 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: also make sure the file you're creating is being saved somewhere in your home dir or desktop (where you have write permission) | 02:39 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: and give the file a swf extension if you want swf | 02:40 |
| Haza | mefisto__: Right. Just testing | 02:40 |
| SkEmO | im doing the b43-fwcutter thing | 02:41 |
| SkEmO | what after? | 02:41 |
| Haza | hmm | 02:41 |
| Haza | mefisto__: Can you play the vidio directly afte you hit the stop button? | 02:42 |
| mefisto__ | Haza: yes, it plays it in mplayer | 02:42 |
| Haza | hmm | 02:43 |
| mefisto__ | not working for you? | 02:43 |
| Haza | My output test.* files are okb's big =/ | 02:43 |
| Haza | *0kb's | 02:43 |
| Haza | I could just do what ive been doing so far of course... tell people to either install linix or download VLC to play my video's | 02:44 |
| Haza | Both decent suggestions :D | 02:44 |
| BluesKaj | well VLC works on most OS's anyway | 02:48 |
| Haza | BlueEagle: Exactly! | 02:49 |

| r2b2 | hello, how can i make my tv tuner to work | 03:04 |
| r2b2 | a friend of mine gave me pixelview tv tuner and i plug it in the pci slot | 03:04 |
| r2b2 | this is my first time to such thing | 03:04 |
| Dr_willis | I would google to see if that thing even has any linux support | 03:05 |
| Dr_willis | if it does - then there are tv tuner programs to try with it. | 03:05 |
| SkEmO | Dr_willis: i better not, i opened the network settings on my system settings and under network interfaces it only appears the la, but not the wireless | 03:05 |
| Dr_willis | xawtv perhaps is one/ | 03:05 |
| SkEmO | LAN* | 03:05 |
| Dr_willis | SkEmO, you mean 'lo' ? | 03:05 |
| SkEmO | lan, sorry | 03:05 |
| HighHo | cyberponix: try running in konsole "sudo lshw -C network" | 03:05 |
| r2b2 | Dr_willis : ok - if it is supported, no drivers required? | 03:05 |
| andypls1 | http://pastebin.com/m31da3695 | 03:06 |
| andypls1 | it's huge... | 03:06 |
| SkEmO | it says interface Eth0 | 03:06 |
| Dr_willis | r2b2, should work.. but some tuners can be tricky. :) if you are lucky | 03:06 |
| cyberponix | ok | 03:06 |
| r2b2 | Dr_willis , i will try xawtv -it would be amazing if the tuner works out of the box ! | 03:06 |
| r2b2 | :) | 03:06 |
| Dr_willis | r2b2, mine basicially did.. but i reserached it first | 03:07 |
| Dr_willis | I used MythTV for a long time | 03:07 |
| r2b2 | so what is your tv tuner brand? | 03:07 |
| Dr_willis | haupage pvr150 | 03:07 |
| HighHo | andypls1: that seems to suggest that the X is not yet using the new config | 03:08 |
| HighHo | it hasent even tryed to call the nvidia driver in the log | 03:08 |
| andypls1 | gimme a sec | 03:08 |
| cyberponix | HighHo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/105775/ | 03:09 |

| m_tadeu | how can I spy tcp/ip communications? | 03:23 |
| The_Z | tweak.. each user that logs on has a tty, or terminal... you can do a "who" to see who is online, and by what means they are logged in... | 03:24 |
| HighHo | cyberponix: did the issue occur after a fresh install | 03:24 |
| The_Z | tweak: you can also use "finger", etc... check the man pages for those, btu it is easier to just try in a shell/terminal yourself. | 03:24 |
| tweakedeh | The_Z:...he made a new user.. nice | 03:24 |
| cyberponix | yes with vista it worked fine... | 03:25 |
| tweak | i don't want to use finger | 03:25 |
| tweak | lol | 03:25 |
| The_Z | tweak: you also have userdel, or deluser if someone has made a user.. but why did they have permissions to do so? | 03:25 |
| The_Z | tweak: I have he feeling you aren't telling everything... :) | 03:26 |
| tweakedeh | I Have a hidden user on my computer, How do I see what it's doing?! | 03:26 |
| HighHo | cyberponix: Im not sure why the forcedeth driver is not included in 7.10, but i belive that this is probably the issue. If you can it would be best to upgrade to intrepid or hardy | 03:27 |
| The_Z | tweak: on linux, there isn't any such thing as a "hidden user".. | 03:27 |
| The_Z | tweak: you can see all of them. | 03:27 |
| The_Z | tweak: when you do a "who -u" do you see the user? | 03:27 |
| * SkEmO sighs | 03:27 | |
| cyberponix | If I can find forcedeth and get it to the other comp what will it do?> | 03:28 |
| SkEmO | Dr_willis: nope, the wireless still doesent work | 03:28 |
| SkEmO | :( | 03:28 |
| The_Z | tweak: you can also look at files where someone logging in is noticed, like "tail -f /var/log/auth.log" | 03:29 |
| HighHo | cyberponix: Its the driver that most nvidia network cards use, the module needs to be loaded before the card will work | 03:29 |
| The_Z | tweak: but why not just delete the accounts, reduce their priveleges, or, or, ... How on earth are you just starting on/in linux and have unwanted guests on your server? How did they get in in the first place?? | 03:30 |

| pkodon | This isn't a kubuntu question, per se, but it's an ubuntu question, shouldn't matter which UI I'm using. | 04:48 |
| pkodon | Okay, I have this little 6G drive I want to put some sstuff I downloaded on, so I can put it in my Win98SE machine and have the stuff available to Windows on that machine. I created a FAT32 partition using the entire disk space. I created a /media/PC1 directory as a mountpoint for it, but when I go into a root shell and try to mount it, using "mount -t fat32 /dev/sdc1 /media/PC1", I'm told there's no such file system as "fat32". | 04:48 |
| darkguy | try vfat, fat or msdos | 04:49 |
| alberto_ | general shortcuts arent working in kde 4.1. where do i modify them? | 04:49 |
| pkodon | darkguy: Will that recognize the fat32 partition? | 04:50 |
| darkguy | pkodon: yeah, as far as I know, for fat32 partitions you should use vfat | 04:50 |
| darkguy | as there's no thing as fat32 if I recall correctly | 04:50 |
| pkodon | Okay, I'll try it, BRB. | 04:50 |
| darkguy | in linux anyways | 04:50 |
| darkguy | good luck | 04:50 |
| pkodon | Well, there's a kernel module called mkfsfat32 or something like that. | 04:51 |

| Dr_willis | chewing gume in the bay. | 07:03 |
| Firefishe | hardly | 07:03 |
| Dr_willis | brand new disk or drive? | 07:03 |
| Firefishe | practically both | 07:03 |
| Firefishe | nothing in the drive bay, it's a laptop. | 07:03 |
| Dr_willis | I have had optical drives with mecahinal issues where they get stuck | 07:03 |
| Firefishe | clean as a whistle | 07:04 |
| Dr_willis | laptop - one of those spring loaded ones then eh. | 07:04 |
| Firefishe | yes, but the eject button won't even work. Soft-eject won't work | 07:04 |
| Dr_willis | there is that little paperclip hole also. | 07:04 |
| Firefishe | no paper clips in sight | 07:04 |
| Dr_willis | Time to order one off the internet. | 07:04 |
| Dr_willis | ;) | 07:04 |
| Dr_willis | Hair pin. | 07:04 |
| Firefishe | I know I'm not being very proactive here. Every time I think of this, I never remember it. Paper clip boxes are cheap, too. Time to hit Staples tomorrow, I'm tired of this. | 07:05 |
| faileas | lol | 07:05 |
| Firefishe | Is there any way to force-soft-eject a drive that's become inactive? | 07:05 |
| * faileas has gem clips for that | 07:05 | |
| Firefishe | Would an encrypted dvd of newer origin have some type of 'anti linux' | 07:06 |
| Firefishe | type of system? | 07:06 |
| Dr_willis | I doubt it | 07:06 |
| Dr_willis | next time ya pop it in.. use DD to make an image of the dvd disk to the HD.. then play the image.. | 07:07 |
| Firefishe | Well, I was using k3b | 07:07 |
| Dr_willis | k3b to do what? | 07:07 |
| Firefishe | I'll have to 'man dd' as I've never used it. | 07:07 |
| Firefishe | or DD | 07:07 |
| Firefishe | which is it/ | 07:07 |
| Dr_willis | 'dd' | 07:07 |

| Firefishe | is there a gui front end? | 07:09 |
| Dr_willis | dvdrip converts the dvd video to a .avi file :) which is fun | 07:09 |
| Dr_willis | it is a front end. | 07:09 |
| Dr_willis | perl front end for transcode. | 07:09 |
| Firefishe | how long does that take? I really just want to make a dvd .iso and then re-burn it to another dvd | 07:10 |
| Firefishe | I'll raw-copy it if necessary. | 07:10 |

| === Mamarok_ is now known as Mamarok | ||
| Firefishe | Dr_willis: hi gain, dr. :) Well, to get around this--and I'm only guessing this is why it's working here--I set my bios to compatible mode (I've had problems with the dvd drive before due to this), rebooted, and in k3b, set it to ignore read errors. It's nicely copying to an .iso file as I type this. Hopefully, with no problems. | 07:32 |
| Dr_willis | compatible mode | 07:32 |
| Dr_willis | Whats that? | 07:32 |
| Firefishe | Enhanced vs Compatible | 07:33 |
| Dr_willis | cant say that ive ever heard of those modes befor for optical media/devices. | 07:33 |
| Dr_willis | only for Parrellel Ports.. AGES ago. :) | 07:33 |
| Firefishe | This has to do with some of the newer hard drives. And perhaps that's true for the dvd drive directly, but the dvd still has to be copied to and read by the hd. Anyway, it's working. | 07:34 |
| Firefishe | enhanced sata or pata or something like that. | 07:34 |
| Firefishe | I don't really know specifically | 07:34 |
| Firefishe | The weird part is, I tried to copy it once, and I had to cancel it. I then--from within the k3b file browser dialog--selected the drive, and it actually read it. Then I tried the copy command again, and now it's working. I'm wondering what's telling what that something is mounted or there or what. | 07:35 |
| Firefishe | Or what would cause the drive to just up and not work...it's not jammed. | 07:36 |
| Firefishe | Quite frankly, I"m not overly impressed with the dvd burner in this thing. I'd like to swap it out for another, but laptops are so specific as to hardware. It's also lightscribe, but that's not a major thing, I'd rather have something accurate and fast. | 07:37 |
| Firefishe | works fine on the vista64 side, but that's another story | 07:37 |
| Dr_willis | Plus you dont watn to see the Cost.... | 07:37 |
| Firefishe | they're not overly heavy, unless you go to the blu-ray burner | 07:38 |
| Dr_willis | ive had dvd videos that refused to play properly on windows.. but they did under linux | 07:38 |
| Firefishe | 600 plus for htat beast | 07:38 |
| Firefishe | Dr_willis: Isn't that weird? Go fig. | 07:38 |
| Dr_willis | It crashed 3 different windows laptops using Windows Media player at exact same spot... | 07:38 |
| Dr_willis | Linux played it whtouht a hitch | 07:38 |
| Dr_willis | this was a legal Starwars DVD. :) | 07:39 |
| Firefishe | Sure is reading the thing slow | 07:39 |
| Firefishe | Well, all I have on vista is windows media player. Didn't even come with a nice, tight dvd viewer package. It's a gaming system, anyway. | 07:39 |
| Dr_willis | I use gmplayer and vlc on windows also. | 07:40 |
| Firefishe | 9700m gt nvidia..which makes eve online look very nice :) | 07:40 |
| Dr_willis | Or i set up GeeXbox and use it to make a fast-booting-video player system | 07:40 |
| Firefishe | what is geexbox? | 07:40 |
| Dr_willis | a MediaPlayer MiniDisrto | 07:40 |
| Firefishe | Is there a usb-drive version? | 07:41 |
| Dr_willis | it recantly came out with a feature sort of like Wubi/ubuntu where you can isntall it as an 'application' under windows.. or you can use it on a bootable thimbdrive | 07:41 |
| Dr_willis | or on a cd | 07:41 |
| Dr_willis | or you can install it to HD and make ubuntub oot it - if you wanted | 07:41 |
| Firefishe | Well, I wouldn't mind using it on windows, to see how it integrates with the system while win is running. I still need a better dvd-decoder. | 07:41 |
| Firefishe | on hd? | 07:42 |
| Dr_willis | It dosent interfrate with the system while windows is runnng | 07:42 |
| Firefishe | Does it need a separate partition? | 07:42 |
| Dr_willis | it is its own little mini disrto | 07:42 |
| Dr_willis | You can install it like wubi and have it instaleld without a pariottion | 07:42 |
| Firefishe | oh, you mean you can run it from within a windows sub-directory if you want? | 07:42 |
| Firefishe | I follow now | 07:42 |
| Firefishe | np | 07:43 |
| Dr_willis | it boots to geexbox. or windows. :) | 07:43 |
| faileas | wubi basically gets grub to load a dosk image | 07:43 |
| faileas | *disk | 07:43 |
| faileas | GeeXbox? | 07:43 |
| Dr_willis | Yep. exactly faileas - GeeXbox has that feature now | 07:43 |
| Dr_willis | MediaPlayer Mini Disrto | 07:43 |
| faileas | i mean what's that ;p | 07:43 |
| Firefishe | I'm going to look it up. | 07:43 |
| Dr_willis | mini thumb drive with GeexBox + laptop = media player :) | 07:43 |
| faileas | lol | 07:44 |
| faileas | hmm | 07:44 |
| Firefishe | although I do not see why kubuntu shouldn't be able to do the same thing. I use the laptop regularly between 8.10/kde and vista. I need vista for some things, ubuntu for others. | 07:44 |
| faileas | sounds like something worth messing with ;p | 07:44 |
| Firefishe | csound, for example ;) | 07:44 |
| Firefishe | I've installed the entire ubuntu-studio | 07:44 |
| Firefishe | I'm going to turn this into a laptop soft-synth workstation | 07:44 |
| elwood | good morning | 07:44 |
| Firefishe | Gotta find a usb-to-midi adapter that will work with ubuntu | 07:45 |
| Firefishe | and probably interface with Jack | 07:45 |
| faileas | lol | 07:45 |
| Firefishe | thought it's weird. You can't run everything at once. Some soft-synths rely on jack, others don't. | 07:45 |
| Firefishe | thought=though | 07:45 |
| faileas | nice timing, i hosed my win2k/xp box ;p | 07:45 |
| Firefishe | I've nixxed my win installations in favor of linux before | 07:46 |
| Firefishe | Actually, the g50v has a 2nd hard drive bay. Asus's online store is out of the brackets, though, and have been since before December. I'm not overly impressed. | 07:47 |
| Firefishe | I'd much prefer to have ubuntu on a separate h/d altogether. | 07:47 |
| Firefishe | I have been able to boot Slax on a usb stick, though. Kind of limited. | 07:47 |
| faileas | Firefishe: oh this is an old box, totally used for videos- a disk imaging software caused some wierdness, and i think i blew up the bootloader ;p | 07:50 |
| Firefishe | well, you could reinstall grub, but if it needs repair--and you wont' lose any of your videos, then I'd just re do it | 07:51 |
| faileas | .... | 07:51 |
| faileas | 19 MB? | 07:52 |
| elwood | is konqueror usable without installing firefox? | 07:52 |
| faileas | Firefishe: none of the videos are on the box | 07:52 |
| Firefishe | what I enjoy about ubuntu, is the way the failsafe-boot works. I'm able to select fsck from an ncurses type menu during failsafe, and that is nice. | 07:52 |
| faileas | elwood: yes | 07:52 |
| Firefishe | elwood...yes | 07:52 |
| Firefishe | konqueror is kde | 07:52 |
| Firefishe | konqueror is kde's web browser/file manager | 07:52 |
| faileas | Firefishe: oh, this is the unique kinda messup you need experience and stupidity in equal measure to do ;p | 07:52 |
| Firefishe | dolphin notwithstanding | 07:52 |
| Firefishe | faileas: LOL Been there. | 07:52 |
| Firefishe | I think I had six re-installs in one day one time. I forget the distro/hardware. | 07:53 |
| elwood | well, it seems to be faster and lighter than ffox, hope it works with all sites :) | 07:53 |
| faileas | Firefishe: ironically, it started with me trying to image the system with ping ;p | 07:53 |
| Firefishe | elwood...konqueror is it's own animal. Flash and Java behave differently with it, so I'd start looking over the forums and all the instructions and options for koqueror if you want it to be your primary browser. I prefer firefox. | 07:54 |
| elwood | Firefishe: thanks, i'll give it a try | 07:55 |
| Firefishe | np elwood | 07:56 |
| Firefishe | faileas: You can image a system with ping?? | 07:56 |
| Firefishe | I thought ping was a network specific thing. | 07:56 |
| faileas | Firefishe: Partimage is not ghost | 07:56 |
| faileas | good documentation, but i don't seem to have luck with disk imaging software XD | 07:56 |
| Firefishe | oh...Ping vs ping ?? | 07:56 |
| Firefishe | faileas: And I don't have any experience with it, either. | 07:57 |
| Firefishe | ghosting drives, I mean | 07:57 |
| faileas | lol | 07:57 |
| Firefishe | Well, the dvd is copied as an .iso. Now let's see if xine will play it | 07:57 |
| faileas | Firefishe: ya ;p. been trying a few.... still haven't gotten one that works for me ;p | 07:58 |
| Dr_willis | I tend to play .iso files in vlc or mplayer | 07:59 |
| Firefishe | Dr_willis: I have vlc. Still, I find that, overall, xine-ui (slaved to xine, when the xine-ui package is installed), overall. | 07:59 |
| Firefishe | I'll try vlc, however, that's a tight package. | 08:00 |
| Dr_willis | im used to the keybindings and featrues in vlc and gmplayer :) | 08:00 |
| Dr_willis | i even use them under windows.. and Geexbox uses mplayer.. so i am used to it the most | 08:00 |

| dominik_g | Hi, I am looking for a way to use the sesame2 backend for libsoprano4 (I am using KDE 4.2 RC1 right now). Does there exist something prepackaged or do I have to compile it myself (which looks to be a tough task)? | 08:50 |
| Dr_willis | !repo | 08:51 |
| ubottu | The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 08:51 |
| dominik_g | Nobody has some ideas on how to get the sesame2 backend in kubuntu? | 08:58 |
| Dr_willis | No idea what that even is dominik_g | 08:58 |
| Dr_willis | !find sesame | 08:58 |
| ubottu | Found: python-sesame | 08:58 |
| dominik_g | python-sesame is not the sesame2 backend for libsoprano4 as far as I know | 09:01 |
| dominik_g | sesame2 is a backend for the nepomuk desktop search | 09:01 |
| dominik_g | kubuntu only includes the redland backend, which is free but veeeery slow | 09:02 |
| dominik_g | sesame2 is built on java, anecdotically contains some non-free parts, but is a lot faster than redland. | 09:03 |
| dominik_g | ok, nobody seems to be able to help. anyway, thanks | 09:06 |
| * Dr_willis still has no idea what nepomuk redland or sesame2 is :) | 09:06 | |

| bobleny | Where can I find the md5 checksum for kubuntu 8.04? | 09:10 |
| bobleny | Is anybody even here? | 09:11 |
| Dr_willis | Sould be a file on the download site/links to it. | 09:11 |
| bobleny | Well, I downloaded it from kubuntu.org, and I couldn't find a link or anything. | 09:12 |
| Dr_willis | http://less.cogeco.net/ubuntu-releases/kubuntu/8.10/MD5SUMS | 09:13 |
| Dr_willis | i just followed the link to the mirrors and looked :) | 09:13 |
| Dr_willis | i was thinking the md5sum file was on the cd.. but ive NO idea how it managed to get there.. heh | 09:14 |
| bobleny | Ok, I got it. Thank you! | 09:16 |
| Dr_willis | Im still nto sure how a disrto cd can boot up and check its own md5sum.. syure it can get its own sum.. but how did they save the md5sum file on the cd.. without changeing the md5sum | 09:19 |

| Goan | Hi, My Kubuntu Hardy is getting unstable. It keeps on freezing on random times and flashes the caps lock key once frozen. I was reading about this and it is named "Kernel Panic". Do you know what should I look for to correct this problem? | 09:35 |
| Dr_willis | flashes the caps lock key and kernel panic is the sign of a VERY VERY nasty crash | 09:38 |
| Dr_willis | hard to tell since you cant really see the logs/stuff after it crashes... | 09:38 |
| Dr_willis | has it always been unstable? or a recent thing? | 09:38 |
| Goan | Started two days back. As far as I remember, I plugged in my Apple Ipod touch and kept it plugged for about two hours and after I came back the screen was frozen. | 09:39 |
| Dr_willis | monitor the dmesg commands output.. and see if anything shows up befor it gets unstable/crashes... | 09:40 |
| Dr_willis | but is it crashing now without theipod plugged in? | 09:40 |
| Goan | yes, I never plugged the ipod back in | 09:41 |
| faileas | Goan: ipod classic 1st generation? | 09:42 |
| faileas | oh my bad | 09:42 |
| * faileas really should read scrollnack ;p | 09:42 | |
| Dr_willis | i would find it hard to belive that plugging in an ipod would damange anything | 09:42 |
| === stephen is now known as techbw | ||
| Goan | Dr_willis, I would think that too. | 09:43 |
| techbw | hi, is there a way for me to log onto another computer kde desktop via ssh. | 09:43 |
| Dr_willis | techbw, depends on what you want to do.. You could ssh -X to the remote box and run apps and they would appear 'locally' | 09:44 |
| Dr_willis | if you wanted to controll the existing kde desktop ont he remote box. thats another thing entirely. :) | 09:44 |
| techbw | no I would like kde desktop to load, ssh -X works for individual apps | 09:44 |
| Dr_willis | You can make all the apps show up locally.. :) start a X session with just a terminal , ssh -X over.. and run 'startkde' | 09:45 |
| Dr_willis | but that may make for a sluggish desktop | 09:45 |
| Dr_willis | also if you dont have to use ssh. theres the xdmcp feature of X. for a remote desktop thats local. | 09:45 |
| techbw | tried that, did not work, I have enabled X tunneling in ssh server on remote pc, but remote computer seems to not respond. when I enter the startkde command | 09:46 |
| Dr_willis | you dont want anyting going in X otehr then a simple terminal window. no other window managers at all. when you do that trick | 09:47 |
| techbw | so I must be in a terminal window not an x when I start this? | 09:48 |
| Dr_willis | I was thinking i saw gdm/kdm somehow had a 'remote X session' or 'secure ssh X session' menu item once.. but im not sure what put them there. | 09:48 |
| techbw | ctrl+alt+f2 for example | 09:48 |
| Dr_willis | start X with JUST a xterm. No window manager, or anythying | 09:48 |
| Dr_willis | Not a CONSOLE | 09:48 |
| techbw | can a window manager be active on another screen? | 09:48 |
| Dr_willis | you can have several X sessions going at the same time.. alt-ctrl-f7 and one on alt-ctrl-f8 and so forth. yes. you an have one on the other 'screen' | 09:49 |
| Dr_willis | Last i did this was with kde 3.5 ages ago.. | 09:49 |
| Dr_willis | AGES and AGES ago :) | 09:49 |
| techbw | when I do go to ctrl+alt+f2 and ssh into the machine and start kde there are alot of failure notices, which go up too fast and can't scroll to see what it is saying | 09:51 |
| Dr_willis | You DONT startkde from a console | 09:51 |
| Dr_willis | you must start it from a X session | 09:51 |
| techbw | how do I open an X session without starting to load kde locally? | 09:51 |
| Dr_willis | thats the trick :) | 09:52 |
| techbw | if I press ctrl+alt+f8 then it opens a local kde session | 09:52 |
| Dr_willis | I was thinking i saw gdm/kdm somehow had a 'remote X session' or 'secure ssh X session' menu item once.. but im not sure what put them there. | 09:52 |
| techbw | i will go through adept and check the repos, maybe there is something in there | 09:53 |
| Dr_willis | look at the kdm login/session items.. or dont use kdm and make a simple .xinitrc that has one line.. 'xterm' | 09:53 |
| Dr_willis | then use startx from the console after you close out X and stop kdm | 09:53 |
| yao_ziyuan | i just googled and found 3 approaches to set fonts for gtk+ programs running in kde: (1) use gtk-qt-engine to "set a font or use my current kde font for gtk+ programs"; (2) edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0; (3) run gnome-settings-daemon at kde startup. approach #1 actually is equivalent to #2 because gtk-qt-engine writes to ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde4, and if i copy this to ~/.gtkrc-2.0, it still doesn't work; so approaches #1 and #2 don't work. only #3 works for me. | 09:53 |
| Dr_willis | Or spawn a 2nd X session that runs .xinitrc with the xterm line in it. | 09:53 |
| techbw | i will try that. | 09:54 |
| techbw | thankx | 09:54 |

| lillyz | hey I have a problem on ubuntu 8.10 amd64 on install it gets to after copy files then it updates time from server and just quits and ubiquity seems to be closing unexpectedly just right after that. Can someone give me any ideas on how to fix. (md5sum on cd is fine, burnt twice now low speed, cd check said no errors i have a 64bit cpu) | 10:50 |
| ka | I have no idea, But then I am new to Ubuntu... | 10:51 |
| Dr_willis | i tend to use the alterntive isntaller.. so not sure. either | 10:55 |
| ka | Maybe you 'll have som more luck at teh #ubuntu channel. But It is saturady, and contrary to whjat people belive, Linux users do something else that use their PCs in the weekends... | 10:58 |
| lillyz | hmm time to try that then... it worked before but i put a new pc together with fairly newish parts but seems it just didn't like me :( | 10:58 |
| lillyz | lol yeah i already asked in #ubuntu no response at all | 10:58 |
| Dr_willis | It can be hard to trouble shoot. | 10:59 |
| Dr_willis | since it works for most everyone else.. | 10:59 |

| tictric | I can login into kde4 but don't get the desktop only kdm wallpaper | 11:21 |
| Guest179 | Dr_willis: OK got it. Settings->Configure Shortcuts. The shortcuts are Ctrl+./Ctrl+, Thanks everyone! | 11:22 |
| ian_ | are you sure your selecting kde4 from the login screen? | 11:22 |
| tictric | ian_: yes | 11:22 |
| tictric | I cannot log in only as one specific user: Me | 11:23 |
| ian_ | tictric: what version of kde4 are you running? on what system? | 11:23 |
| tictric | the other users on this machine can just login like before | 11:23 |
| tictric | 4.1.4 | 11:23 |
| Dr_willis | sounds like some messed up kde setting | 11:23 |
| tictric | yes | 11:24 |
| ian_ | tictric: can you log into terminal and check that all of your home dir is owned by you and you've not accidently owned some of it by root | 11:24 |
| ka | tictric: Hm I oftwen experienced this when my home dir was full... | 11:24 |
| tictric | I even moved my home dir to homedir.bak and created a new empty home to see what happens | 11:24 |
| tictric | no change | 11:24 |
| tictric | only this one user doesn't get a desktop env on this upgraded intrepid | 11:25 |
| ka | rename your kde folder as root | 11:25 |
| tictric | ian_: I checked all of the abovd | 11:25 |
| ian_ | the only time i've seen problems like that are either with a full home dir or wrong permissions | 11:25 |
| ka | Kde will regenerat a new folder for you, then you can copy back the things you need | 11:25 |
| tictric | I did chown -R user.user /home/user | 11:25 |
| ian_ | hhhmmmm | 11:26 |
| tictric | ka, that's what I thought too. But it made no change | 11:26 |
| ka | Crap... That seems strange | 11:26 |
| ka | Hm make a new user and copy your files over | 11:27 |
| ian_ | while we are on the topic of kde, has anyone had problems with kwin constantly crashing in 4.2 RC? | 11:27 |
| tictric | ka I'll try that I think | 11:27 |

| cyberponix | is your hdd password protected? | 16:00 |
| [1]felix | no | 16:00 |
| [1]felix | I could easily install any linux using CD's till now. But now installing from CD (and/or net) isnt an option on this pc | 16:01 |
| cyberponix | do you have either ubuntu or kubuntu 7.10? | 16:01 |
| marcus_ | Does anyone have an URL to how to get the webcam working in 8.10? I'm completely new. | 16:01 |
| [1]felix | I do have kubuntu installed already on other partitions, it's not working since I tried upgrade, so I wanted to use this method of installing new version on those partitioins | 16:02 |
| [1]felix | I'm using unetbotin from windows | 16:02 |
| cyberponix | if you have the 7.10 disk run the live cd and see if the partition can be taken care of thru that then run the new one | 16:03 |
| Xand3r | hey folks why is my intel gfx driver only from 20061102? | 16:04 |
| Xand3r | thats realy old | 16:04 |
| [1]felix | no, I cannot use CD, that's why I'm messing with untbotin, I do have downloaded ISO of kubuntu 8.10, but no CD, I cannot use it anyway | 16:04 |
| cyberponix | burn the iso to disk | 16:05 |
| [1]felix | no cyber, I cannot use CD at all | 16:05 |
| [1]felix | I can only try to install from HD somehow | 16:06 |
| [1]felix | thoght that maybe if I could be presented with an option during the booting with unetbotin to go straight to installation process without starting live session, but I cannot find the way.. | 16:06 |

| armandas | has anyone got an idea on how to disable vj compression for PPP connections? knetworkmanager just doesn't save the settings | 16:09 |
| [1]felix | cyberponix, ok thanks for your time cyber :) I'm gonna try to find some other way or get some cd drive fast. cya :) | 16:09 |
| dstar | Okay, what the heck keeps overwriting my resolv.conf? I'm using wicd rather than the piece of shit known as network manager, but it doesn't even have a place for it... | 16:10 |
| jussi01 | !ohmy | dstar | 16:10 |
| ubottu | dstar: Please watch your language, attitude and topic to help keep this channel friendly and helpful. Remember, there are kids here! | 16:10 |
| kalorin_ | dstar: it's likely resolvconf the package | 16:11 |
| kalorin_ | it does that to me as wel | 16:11 |
| stdin | the dhcp client will overwrite it with the information it receives | 16:11 |
| dstar | Sorry. I'm stuck using Gnome instead of KDE until I can convince plasma not to segfault as soon as I log in, and it's driving me _NUTS_. | 16:11 |
| kalorin_ | heh | 16:12 |
| dstar | I'm set up for static, and the _nameserver_ info gets stuck in, just not the domain.... | 16:12 |
| kalorin_ | stdin, yeah but mine keeps getting overwritten with the dns servers from the vpn connection that I have set up | 16:12 |
| kalorin_ | adds nameservers and a search domain | 16:12 |
| kalorin_ | and then everything gets slow as I have to wait for it to time out when looking for anything | 16:12 |
| stdin | you'll need to edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf with "prepend domain-name-servers <IP of a DNS server>;" if you want to force a default | 16:13 |
| dstar | stdin: that should only happen if I'm using dhcp, right? | 16:13 |
| stdin | yes, dhclient only gets run for dhcp setup | 16:14 |
| dstar | Hmm. And I don't have the resolveconf package installed. | 16:15 |
| stdin | it's an outdated package, no longer needed | 16:16 |
| cyberponix | Ok I have searched and searched... I need help to find and get my ethernet working fresh install on a brand new computer | 16:17 |
| dstar | hmm. | 16:18 |
| cyberponix | its an nvidia network | 16:18 |
| cyberponix | on an NVIDIA® GeForce® 8200 motherboard | 16:18 |
| dstar | Okay, so it's a static interface, and shouldn't be running dhcp, so that's not likely to be it. It's not resolveconf. What else could be overwriting resolve.conf? | 16:20 |
| dominique | why does kwin crash if i send it a HUP-signal? | 16:24 |
| kaeferadept | can anybody help me out please? a friend of mine that uses kubuntu 8.10 screwed up his sources.list. Does anyone has a working one? | 16:29 |

| pidusd | can anybody help me with this weird experience that i had with kubuntu..my wired and wirless were working fine on kubuntu 8.10 a couple of hours ago | 16:31 |
| === elwghost is now known as elwood | ||
| === rainarrow is now known as Rainarrow | ||
| pidusd | and then the system crashed after it froze and the caps lock light kept blinking by reasons not known to me | 16:31 |
| === DarkSmoke is now known as DS-Away | ||
| pidusd | since then...both my wired and wireless network stopped working and now it refuses to work even on kubuntu 8.10 live cd but works fine on kubuntu 8.04 live cd | 16:32 |
| Rainarrow | Hello, my Firefox no longer knows how to open downloaded files/directories after I cleared my ~/.kde directory, it asks me use which program to open the file for ANY format I downloaded when I double click on them | 16:33 |
| pidusd | Rainarrow: am not sure, but i guess kde lost track of which default applications to use for which formats. for the time being you can search for appropriate applications if you know which one used to open which file extension | 16:34 |
| === aa is now known as Guest6624 | ||
| pidusd | most applications are contained in /usr/bin | 16:34 |
| treats | my terminal is stuck behind a proxy... does anyone know how to find the proxy settings? | 16:35 |
| Rainarrow | pidusd: thanks, but strangely, Dolphin still has the default app associations intact | 16:35 |
| Rainarrow | pidusd: and I can't even use the "Open Containing Folder" function in firefox, which still triggers the "Choose the app" dialog | 16:36 |
| pidusd | treats: go to system settings->network settings and there you should find an option to manually fill in proxy details | 16:37 |
| dominique | pidusd: file types and default applications are not saved in ~/.kde afaik | 16:37 |
| dstar | kaeferadept: I could let you have mine, but it's got a lot of extra stuff in it.... | 16:37 |
| treats | pidusd: it is somewhere else... i changed that but I still recieve an error that my terminal is trying to go through a proxy | 16:37 |
| Rainarrow | dominique: I feel strange too, because I believe Firefox's setting should be in ~/.mozilla | 16:38 |
| kaeferadept | dstar: That shouldn't be a problem. | 16:38 |
| Rainarrow | dominique: which I didn't touch at all | 16:38 |
| dominique | Rainarrow: I don't get your problem exactly. | 16:38 |
| dominique | Rainarrow: Did the file associations once work? | 16:39 |
| Rainarrow | dominique: yes, of course | 16:39 |
| dstar | kaeferadept: http://pastie.org/363300 | 16:39 |
| Rainarrow | dominique: and I just noticed it no longer works recently | 16:40 |
| Rainarrow | dominique: and the only thing I can recall is that I deleted my ~/.kde directory, since I accidentally removed the taskbar and didn't know how to get it back | 16:40 |
| dstar | pidusd: when you say your wired and wireless networks won't work, what's happening? Are the interfaces up? | 16:40 |
| pidusd | dstar: no, not in 8.10 | 16:40 |
| pidusd | though they automatically do in 8.04 | 16:41 |
| kaeferadept | thanks a lot. dstar | 16:41 |
| dstar | pidusd: What happens if you try to bring them up by hand? Do you get an error? | 16:41 |
| dstar | kaeferadept: no problem | 16:41 |
| pidusd | dstar: yeah..give me sec..i'll tell you the exact error | 16:41 |
| Adola | Hey! I need help installing something using cmake | 16:43 |
| pidusd | dstar: ifconfig does show eth0 but when i try to ifup it says - "ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0" | 16:44 |
| dstar | pidusd: hmm... what does your interfaces file look like? | 16:45 |
| ame | hello ... i'd like to have an information: i've kubuntu 8.04 . If i upgrade this to 8.10 , settings (such as Video Card, Monitor....) that i have, remain or them change and I'll have to adjust them after installation? | 16:45 |
| pidusd | dstar: how should i find that out? | 16:46 |
| pidusd | dstar: i mean which files would contain interface details | 16:46 |
| ame | !upgrade | 16:46 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 16:46 |
| dstar | pidusd: /etc/network/interfaces | 16:47 |
| shadeslayer | hey i just wanted to know if i am right in thinking that .bin files run only in linux | 16:47 |
| pidusd | dstar: it has 2 entries auto lo and iface lo inet loopback | 16:48 |
| dstar | pidusd: okay, that's why ifup isn't working. Are you using networkmanager, I assume? | 16:48 |
| === elwghost is now known as elwood | ||
| pidusd | dstar: yup | 16:49 |
| dstar | pidusd: Ugh. NM is yet another example of GNOME thinking that Microsoft's 'we know what you want better than you do' attitude is something to be emulated, rather than scorned... | 16:50 |
| pidusd | dstar: :-) so what's the right course to fix it? | 16:51 |
| dstar | pidusd: Good luck debugging it. I switched to wicd after spending several hours tracking down a problem, only to find it was a known bug that the NM developers had no intention of fixing because they _wanted_ it to work that way. | 16:51 |
| dstar | pidusd: Use wicd. Wicd is _nice_. | 16:51 |
| pidusd | dstar: but isn't wicd yet another clone of NM? | 16:52 |
| === kb is now known as Guest16832 | ||
| dstar | pidusd: It has the same functionality, but from what I can see the developers are sane. When the 'scanning for new networks blocks all other activity for 10-15 seconds' problem was pointed out, they changed it to scan only when it needed new networks. | 16:53 |
| shadeslayer | and BTW has anyone used open SUSE withe KDE desktop | 16:53 |
| shadeslayer | *with the | 16:54 |
| dstar | pidusd: NM scans every two minutes. When someone suggested a configuration item to change that, the response was 'the idea behind NM is zero-configuration, so a configuration option is non-sensical'. | 16:54 |
| pidusd | dstar: but getting wicd without a internet on that machine will be :-( | 16:54 |
| dstar | pidusd: Keep in mind that the specific problem in that case was an intel wireless chipset that would _drop the association with the AP_ when scanning..... | 16:55 |
| kaeferadept | just curious: what packages are needed to get mp3s working? | 16:55 |
| dstar | pidusd: Is NM running? | 16:55 |
| pidusd | dstar: yes, but it says eth0 is disconnected. | 16:56 |
| shadeslayer | hey i just wanted to know if i am right in thinking that .bin files run only in linux | 16:56 |
| pidusd | dstar: even though it was working perfectly fine when i tried it using kubuntu 8.04 live cd | 16:56 |
| dstar | pidusd: Hmm. Okay, is eth0 dhcp or static? | 16:56 |
| pidusd | dstar: static | 16:57 |
| dstar | pidusd: Okay... oh, wait. ISTR that NM kept forgetting the network settings I'd given it. Does NM still have your network settings? | 16:58 |
| pidusd | dstar: yes, i think, because when i add a new wired connection to it, it does stay there but selecting it in the window has no effect | 17:00 |
| pidusd | dstar: is there a way to manually add the eth0 interface entry? | 17:00 |
| dstar | pidusd: Hrm. It didn't decide your wired connection should be dhcp? | 17:01 |
| pidusd | dstar, no. | 17:01 |
| dstar | pidusd: yeah, you can add it to /etc/network/interfaces | 17:01 |
| dstar | pidusd: and then ifup will work. | 17:01 |
| dstar | pidusd: man interfaces should tell you what you need to know | 17:01 |
| pidusd | dstar: cool! thanks, i hope it works | 17:02 |
| dstar | pidusd: no problem | 17:02 |
| dstar | how often are the official packages for the amd proprietary drivers updated? | 17:03 |
| KomiaPoika | dstar: better use drivers directly from nvidia website | 17:07 |
| dstar | KomiaPoika: Is it really? When I did that, plasma started crashing when I logged in, thus forcing me to use Gnome. | 17:08 |
| dstar | KomiaPoika: So I figured that was a mistake. | 17:10 |
| killermach | I have a nvidia 7300 video card, does anyone have the component (RGB) out setup? | 17:10 |
| cyberponix | dstar i am having a very close issue as you.... I can not get my nvidia ethernet working | 17:11 |
| killermach | I have the RGB adapter plugged in and the RGB connected to a tv, but the tv does not find an input | 17:11 |
| cyberponix | luckly I have two computers the new one no net connection and this one witch works just fine.. | 17:11 |
| dstar | cyberponix: pidusd was the one having the network problem.... | 17:11 |
| cyberponix | oh sorry | 17:12 |
| killermach | so I must not have the video card outputing to the RGB port | 17:12 |
| cyberponix | pidusd anyluck? | 17:12 |

| ghostcube | pidusd, you can set all networks static in interfaces in /etc/network afaik | 17:20 |
| ghostcube | then just restart network from /etc/init.d/ | 17:20 |
| ghostcube | and dont forget to set an nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf | 17:21 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: but i don't have an existing /etc/resolv.conf, should i create one? | 17:21 |
| analid | a program to edit grub ubuntu? | 17:21 |

| ghostcube | maybe it removed the files | 17:23 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: no | 17:23 |
| ghostcube | but this shouldnt happen | 17:23 |
| ghostcube | you need an resolv.conf to get network for inet working | 17:24 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: can i manually make one? | 17:24 |
| analid | a graphic editor for grub | 17:24 |
| ghostcube | analid, system,settings advanced grub | 17:25 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: i did remove NM earlier, but then i reinstalled kubuntu. so, i guess the Knetworkmanager entry its showing is a fresh one | 17:25 |
| ghostcube | have u edited the network inside the manager till now? | 17:26 |
| ghostcube | if there isnt a resolv.conf just create one | 17:26 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: yes, but to no good. | 17:26 |
| pidusd | ok | 17:26 |
| analid | im have hardy | 17:26 |
| ghostcube | analid, hmmm | 17:26 |
| ghostcube | ok then no kde4 | 17:26 |
| ghostcube | :D | 17:26 |
| analid | no | 17:26 |
| analid | kde3 | 17:26 |
| KomiaPoika | dstar: the resulting xorg.conf may need a little tweaking, but overall, the driver is more stable and performant | 17:26 |
| KomiaPoika | dstar: always shutdown gdm/kdm before installing it | 17:27 |
| dstar | KomiaPoika: okay | 17:27 |
| KomiaPoika | ps ax|grep gdm | 17:27 |
| KomiaPoika | kill the pid's | 17:27 |
| KomiaPoika | then sh NVIDA-...... .run | 17:27 |

| ghostcube | pidusd, you know what to put into the resdolv.conf ? | 17:28 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: no, i was about to ask that. | 17:28 |
| pidusd | i did try adding an entry through NM, but that had no effect | 17:28 |
| ghostcube | nameserver ipoftheserver | 17:28 |
| pidusd | in the same format as interfaces? | 17:29 |

| pidusd | am on lan...i know my static ip | 17:30 |

| xp-killer | the heck with it im going to upgrade | 17:55 |
| ghostcube | xp-killer, ehm what ? | 17:55 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: hey it did work :-) | 17:56 |
| pidusd | sorry for bugging you so bad...but just wanted to ask one last (set) of questions :P | 17:57 |
| ghostcube | :) | 17:57 |
| xp-killer | ghostcube: it buggy on kubuntu so i want to upgrade,if i do will i still have my configurations ,bookmarks,and save data on my pc | 17:57 |
| xp-killer | ? | 17:57 |
| markit | I've kubuntu with 4.1-96 in 2 laptops. One works fine, the second one, as soon as I try to logout, instead of presenting me the log screen, makes the screen go crazy (lot of strange character mode symbols). Is it a known issue? | 17:58 |
| ghostcube | xp-killer, this wont be deleted | 17:59 |
| pidusd | NM worked perfectly fine on my machine before kubuntu crashed a couple of hours ago and then NM stopped working...but can you think of why it didn't work perfectly, once again when i installed a fresh copy of kubuntu? | 17:59 |
| xp-killer | ghostcube: and for my graphic card? | 17:59 |
| ghostcube | pidusd, hmm have u done all upgrades | 17:59 |
| ghostcube | xp-killer, xorg.conf wont be touched but you can macke a backup of it | 17:59 |
| pidusd | and even the live cd won't let me connect to the network. How could i have removed the past traces beyond formatting / | 18:00 |
| xp-killer | ok | 18:00 |
| ghostcube | so if its not working after just use the backup of the file | 18:00 |
| xp-killer | then UPGRADE HERE WE GO | 18:00 |
| ghostcube | pidusd, my card on my board isnt recognized by kernel on 8.10 install cd | 18:00 |

| ghostcube | :D | 18:00 |
| pidusd | but mine was...atleast the ethernet card used to, when i installed kubuntu from the same disk..maybe a month ago | 18:01 |
| ghostcube | and networlkmanager deletes sometimes the things inside the resolv.conf dont know if this is fixed till now | 18:01 |
| ghostcube | pidusd, not big trouble its better to set manually then it most times work | 18:01 |
| ghostcube | but pidusd you can try opening the proposed repos and catching the newest stuff | 18:01 |
| pidusd | ghostcube: :-) thanks a ton | 18:02 |
| pidusd | yeah am doing exactly that...but i don't like adept..d/ling synaptic to do that | 18:02 |
| ghostcube | ehm just put the repo in it like on kubuntu.org described for update to 4..4 | 18:02 |
| ghostcube | ehm just put the repo in it like on kubuntu.org described for update to 4.1.4 | 18:02 |
| ghostcube | then sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:03 |
| webaska | how to check or modify xorg.conf ? i forgot | 18:03 |

| shadeslayer | setuid_w00t:yes i can confirm that | 19:27 |
| setuid_w00t | Does the kubuntu DVD have kparted on it>? | 19:27 |
| setuid_w00t | I want to boot and then do some partition resizing/moving | 19:27 |
| setuid_w00t | or gparted | 19:27 |
| shadeslayer | setuid_w00t:yes it allows you to resize the partitions during install | 19:28 |
| p_quarles | setuid_w00t: yes, it has gparted, I believe; hard to install without a partition editor | 19:28 |
| KomiaPoika | can someone accept a dcc transfer from me for testing purposes? | 19:28 |
| setuid_w00t | I don't want to do an install. I already have one. I just want to move data around due to buying a new hard drive | 19:28 |
| shadeslayer | setuid_w00t:dunno if it has that facility | 19:29 |
| p_quarles | setuid_w00t: my point is that an installation disk *has* to have a partition editor on it | 19:30 |
| p_quarles | setuid_w00t: so if you have a disk that can install Kubuntu, you know by logical deduction that it has a partition editor on it as well | 19:31 |

| HighHo | LazersM: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Adola: you have an flv file, for example, if the file was in your home directory and called tattoo.flv, you can run the command: file ~/tattoo.flv | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Adola: and it will tell you what it is, file extensions mean very little in linux | 20:27 |
| HighHo | LazersM: you should probably also run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Adola: file will tell you exactly what it is | 20:27 |

| ActionParsnip | Adola: if you can play other flv files but not this one its possibly corrupted | 20:28 |
| Adola | ActionParsnip: However, I did that to another .flv that works. And it too came up "Macromedia Flash Video" | 20:28 |

| ghostcube | markus, afaik its a known problem | 20:36 |
| ghostcube | no idea how far the fix is | 20:36 |
| markus | ok, then just wonder why K3b is included in distros, when it cannot do what its supposed to do? | 20:37 |
| markus | any other way to burn iso? | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | markus: works flawlessly here | 20:38 |

| markus | thanx ubottu, i'll have a look | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | markus: if you wanna burn the iso with k3b, right click the iso and select open with, then select k3b | 20:40 |

| ActionParsnip | WDC: amarok2 is on a 3rd party repo which you will need to add yourself | 20:41 |
| WDC | ActionParsnip: Ah. do you have that? | 20:41 |
| christoz | in order to install a kde theme what should i do first? | 20:41 |
| bukharin | WDC: you have to add the ppa, and sudo apt-get update | 20:41 |
| markus | i've tried K3b in hardy and the one before that, in both it kind of starts (says its burning) but nothing actually happens. | 20:41 |

| bukharin | yeah, that's it | 20:42 |

| WDC | thanks | 20:42 |
| ActionParsnip | WDC: add both to /etc/apt/sources.list | 20:42 |
| bukharin | WDC amarok-kde4 contains amarok 2, and it conflicts with amarok plain, so it wil replace it. just did it myself a couple of days ago. | 20:43 |
| blueop | there is no support for this in here | 20:43 |

I did the steps to install rt73 and i am using a belkin wireless usb adapter. I was wondering if someone can help me fix it or if there is a way to install the latest kernel with... | 20:56 |

| === aa is now known as Guest73211 | ||
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: i'd strongly suggest using a wired connection til you get on your feet | 21:00 |
| floyd | hi all | 21:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: or you can use aptoncd | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | !hi | floyd | 21:01 |
| ubottu | floyd: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | !aptoncd | Brad777 | 21:01 |
| ubottu | Brad777: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers | 21:01 |
| markus | ActionParsnip, still does not work, i guess i'll just try some other program. | 21:02 |
| markus | hi floyd | 21:02 |
| floyd | =) can somebody say me how i should set ipv4. It displays as ipv6 permanently =( | 21:03 |
| floyd | ? | 21:03 |
| Brad777 | Is there a way to get the package without using a package manager? I am using windows xp atm so I can't use aptitude to download anything. | 21:03 |
| Dr_willis | Brad777, go to the fileserver and download it.. is one way.. but you may need to get other dependencies also. | 21:04 |
| floyd | hi markus | 21:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: you can access the repos via http and download the debs manually | 21:04 |
| Dr_willis | Brad777, like ActionParsnip said.. its proberly best to go wired till you can get wireless tested | 21:04 |
| Brad777 | I just recently moved and at the moment I have no way of using a wired connection. I had the wireless working for a few minutes then without thinking about it I updated kubuntu and it did something to mess up the drivers I guess because I no longer can detect the wireless network. | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: try: sudo mv /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces_old | 21:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: then reboot | 21:08 |
| Brad777 | I rebooted and Wicd still says that no wireless network are found | 21:12 |

| Dr_willis | kedit/kate | 21:15 |
| ActionParsnip | treats: kwrite, kate | 21:16 |
| Dr_willis | Adola you either use the ntfs-3g tools, and set it to mount on the fly, or moutn it automatically from the fstab file | 21:16 |
| Dr_willis | Adola, example of mounting it one time.. 'sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/WindowsStuff' | 21:16 |
| Dr_willis | Your 'sda1' may differ.. and the mountpoint directrory MUST MUST MUST exist beforhand. | 21:17 |

| === _roconnor is now known as roconnor | ||
| Dr_willis | read about fstab.. and learn whats going on.. backup your original... its not scary its rather straight forward | 21:17 |
| Dr_willis | when in doubt read/look for examples... such as this one | 21:18 |
| Dr_willis | /dev/sda2 /media/VistaStorage ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0 | 21:18 |
| Dr_willis | that mounts my 2nd window drive to /media/VistaStorage | 21:18 |
| Dr_willis | note the format for the mountcommand line and fstab are SIMILER.. but not IDENTICAL | 21:18 |
| Dr_willis | sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda2 /media/VistaStorage -o defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 | 21:19 |

| Dr_willis | its possible the reason you cant eget to it - is that IF windows crashes or otehr wise fails to properly 'unmount' the drive. Linux sees it as beeing flagged 'dirty' by windows, and refuses to mountit - to keep it safe | 21:42 |
| Dr_willis | boot to windows. and scan the drive.. properly shut down windows.. do NOT hibernate/suspend.. and see if linux can access it | 21:43 |

| Dr_willis | Adola, the tool 'ntfs-config' might be able to automate it for you. sudo apt-get install ntfs-config, kdesudo ntfs-config | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: looks like you got something to do | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: you cann install build-essential from your install cd | 21:44 |
| Brad777 | ActionParsnip:ok i guess I'll just let you know when I get done | 21:44 |
| Dr_willis | You can install a lot of stuff from the live cd.. :) if you got tha ram | 21:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Brad777: seems pretty complete | 21:45 |

| Brad777 | ActionParsnip: does it matter that my usb adapter is a different version? | 21:46 |
| Dr_willis | whatever you want | 21:46 |

| Adola | Ahh, and of course, something went wrong | 21:48 |
| Adola | http://pastebin.com/m541106 | 21:48 |
| Dr_willis | -> ount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use. Choose one action: | 21:49 |
| Dr_willis | its possible the reason you cant eget to it - is that IF windows crashes or otehr wise fails to properly 'unmount' the drive. Linux sees it as beeing flagged 'dirty' by windows, and refuses to mountit - to keep it safe | 21:49 |
| Dr_willis | as i said earluier. :) | 21:49 |
| Dr_willis | boot to windows. and scan the drive.. properly shut down windows.. do NOT hibernate/suspend.. and see if linux can access it | 21:49 |
| Dr_willis | or be brave and 'force' the mount... | 21:49 |
| Dr_willis | and risk possible data loss. | 21:50 |
| Adola | Oh, I'm sorry, Ididn't know you were directing that to me. | 21:50 |
| === Guest5601 is now known as maxbaldwin | ||
| Adola | Dr_willis: Do you think forcing it is a ok idea? | 21:51 |
| HighHo | Adola: As Dr_willis: says its probably from where windows was not shut down correctly, forcing is probably safe, but to be sure boot into windows and shut down fully | 21:51 |
| === maxbaldwin is now known as GameManager | ||
| Adola | That's all? He said scan the drive. | 21:52 |
| Adola | But, I'll try. I'l BRB | 21:52 |
| Adola | :) Thanks you guys | 21:52 |
| HighHo | Adola: Scan the drive if you still get that message after a proper shut down. | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | Adola, how imporntant is your data. :) | 21:53 |
| Dr_willis | Adola, do NOT use hibernate/suspend under windows | 21:53 |

| === GameManager is now known as maxbaldwin | ||
| === maxbaldwin is now known as GameManager | ||
| HighHo | alexandergaeta: yes, | 21:59 |
| Admiral_Chicago | alexandergaeta: depends on the applications...Fx and OOo do but not the desktop environment | 21:59 |
| markus | alexandergaeta, same or corresponding applications | 21:59 |
| Admiral_Chicago | no idea markit | 22:00 |
| alexandergaeta | So what is the difference between Kubuntu and Ubuntu? Does Kubuntu just have the KDE environment? | 22:00 |
| markus | y | 22:00 |
| Admiral_Chicago | more or less. | 22:00 |
| markit | also, recently if I enter nano editor (or vi), numeric keypad does not work anymore, but works in simple shell... any idea? | 22:00 |
| adam_ | Ok, I rebooted into Windows, and shut down as normal. Yet, ntfs-config still has the same error | 22:01 |
| HighHo | alexandergaeta: You can install anything missing through the repos if you find something missing | 22:01 |
| alexandergaeta | In kubuntu, can i do file management, application installation, etc. like I do in Ubuntu? | 22:02 |

| setuid | How do I configure kdm? It's coming up in what looks like 640x480 with a huge black region around it, instead of 1920x1200 | 22:44 |
| setuid | And when I log into KDE, it's stuck at 1024x768, until I go to System Settings and click on Display (changing nothing), then it pops to 1920x1200 | 22:44 |
| setuid | Is there a way to make that resolution "stick"? | 22:45 |

| Brad777 | you could play around in ur xorg file | 22:48 |
| Brad777 | i wouldn't recommend that though | 22:48 |
| setuid | my xorg.conf is about 7 lines long | 22:49 |
| Brad777 | what is ur video card setuid | 22:49 |
| setuid | Default one... only has "Section InputDevice" | 22:49 |
| setuid | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Quadro FX 570M (rev a1) | 22:49 |
| ghostcube | setuid, try nvidia-settings | 22:49 |
| ghostcube | save the xorg.conf to desktop if u enabled all u want | 22:49 |
| ghostcube | edit the xorg.conf u have the waythe settings do it | 22:49 |
| Brad777 | setuid: do u have nvidia x server settings? | 22:50 |
| setuid | I"m not running the nvidia driver, don't want to do that at the moment | 22:50 |
| setuid | http://rafb.net/p/1oF0jb10.html | 22:50 |
| setuid | That's my entire config | 22:50 |
| Brad777 | setuid: i was having the problem u are having and i fixed it using the nvidia driver that's the only thing i could figure out | 22:50 |
| setuid | It's whatever Intrepid put on the system when it installed | 22:50 |
| thenakaii | hi | 22:51 |
| setuid | Something tells me that the problem is the Intrepid installer never actually created a working xorg.conf | 22:51 |
| ghostcube | setuid, install nvidia-glx-180 should work fine for this card | 22:52 |
| ghostcube | then let nvidia-xconfig set an new xorg.conf | 22:52 |
| setuid | I'm not going to use the nvidia driver right now... so I'm going to use vesafb for the moment | 22:53 |
| setuid | I don't need the full-speed, proprietary driver | 22:53 |
| setuid | Seems like the only way to "fix" the resolution is to go into System Properties -> Display and then exit immediately. | 22:58 |
| setuid | Changes in the "Display" applet aren't persistent | 22:58 |
| Brad777 | setuid: that's because the nvidia driver saves changes to the xorg file for u | 23:03 |
| setuid | And since I'm not going to use that, I don't care. I highly doubt that a user-level change to the resolution writes to a root-owned, read-only flle. | 23:04 |
| setuid | Definitely looks like a bug in the systemsettings implementation | 23:05 |
| === DS-Busy is now known as DarkSmoke | ||
| setuid | Does the same exact thing inside a vmware guest | 23:06 |
| setuid | So it's not the nvidia driver or lack of that driver | 23:06 |
| Brad777 | setuid: just telling you how I fixed it | 23:08 |
| setuid | That may work for you and the nvidia drivers may correct the discrepancy/bug in KDE, but the bug is consistent across two physically different platforms and drivers, so it is not hardware or driver-specific. | 23:09 |

| artur__ | How to really effectively remove a program? I could note that --purge isn't enough. | 23:27 |
| dominique | artur_: apt-get remove? | 23:28 |
| dominique | What you mean with not enough? | 23:29 |
| Brad777 | yertosaurus: 4.1.3 | 23:35 |
| artur__ | dominique: when you see the 'man apt-get' there's a part that tell that to effectively remove you must use --purge, but I tried this to uninstall skype, but when i re-installed it, I didn't have to login. So everything was like before the uninstall. Cause before it i used to be automatically logged without typing password and username. It's a example. | 23:36 |
| dominique | artur_: Check your ~/ for files according to pidgin (locate) | 23:37 |
| artur__ | So, you that if I uninstall the amarok (for example) after this I should check if there is some amarok folder in my /~/ ? Right? | 23:39 |
| artur__ | you mean* | 23:39 |
| dominique | artur_: yeah | 23:39 |
| artur__ | ok! I'll try! Thnx! | 23:39 |
| dominique | artur_: But i'm not the linux god, so i could be wrong | 23:40 |
| setuid | You rang? | 23:41 |
| * setuid is the Linux god | 23:41 | |
| * dominique says: God is dead. | 23:41 | |
| setuid | If you believe he was ever alive, yes... | 23:41 |
| setuid | I don't subscribe to the bearded-man-in-the-clouds religions | 23:42 |
| dominique | No, it's just was Nietzsche said. | 23:42 |

| setuid | dominique, I'm doing some heavy testing on my Drobo | 23:45 |
| dominique | Ah k :) | 23:45 |
| setuid | Put 2 3.5" (desktop drives and 2 2.5" (laptop) drives into it, filled it with about 680GB of data, and am going to pull a drive... but I want to checksum everything before, let the Drobo relevel all the data, then checksum after, and see if it "breaks" anything | 23:45 |
| setuid | If it doesn't, I'm going to put a 750G drive into the open slot, and see what happens after that | 23:46 |
| dominique | And wheres the problem? | 23:46 |
| setuid | I happen to have 2 of those faulty 1TB Seagate drives, so I want to be sure nothing goes wrong while I'm pulling them to RMA them | 23:46 |
| dominique | You don't have enough space for the hashes? xD | 23:46 |
| setuid | dominique, No problem yet... I just don't quite buy their claim that I can pull a drive while it's running, plugged into Linux, and it will just magically do the right thing with the data. | 23:47 |
| setuid | /dev/sdc1 925G 922G 3.2G 100% /usr/local/array | 23:47 |

| GnuSense | Must be using KDE4/Intrepid, kate is great on my Hardy KDE3 install. | 23:51 |
| GnuSense | Plenty of other broken applications, though. | 23:52 |
| markit | as soon as I login, screen becomes a mess. .xsession-errors has a line stating x-terminal-emulator: Fatal IO error: client killed. Any clue? | 23:54 |
| dominique | GnuSense: Yeah, i'm using kde4/intrepid... there a few other k-apps that have quite a lot problems (kftpgrabber, klipper, kmix...) | 23:56 |
| GnuSense | dominique: KDE4 is slow and buggy, the last time I checked, which is why I'm sticking with Hardy. Hopefully by the next LTS version KDE4 will be up to snuff. | 23:57 |
| dominique | GnuSense: You're rgight with the slow and buggy, i hope everytime i turn on my computer that some update notifier wants to update something... | 23:59 |
