| GnuSense | I have Intrepid installed on a machine in my attic, I found I've become a born-again Gnome convert. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| dominique | GnuSense: hehe yeah... i thought many times of moving to gnome but i would have had to install it and i was just happy to a more or less working linux on my machine..never touch a running system you know ;) | 00:01 |
| dominique | GnuSense: tried linux a few years ago (ubuntu with gnome) and it was faster, unfortunately there was no driver for my wlan-card so i moved back to ms windows | 00:02 |
| GnuSense | Well, Debian based systems will add new desktops pretty seemlessly, 'apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' | 00:02 |
| dominique | GnuSense: you're sure? i'll try this... | 00:03 |
| dominique | Oh ahm, i think i got to stop X before... | 00:03 |
| dominique | is there a terminal irc client? | 00:04 |
| GnuSense | Well, drivers are one good reason to go for the latest & greatest desktop, dominique. Yup, never had a bad experience adding desktops, you don't have to stop X. | 00:04 |
| GnuSense | edubuntu-desktop - edubuntu desktop system | 00:04 |

| dominique | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 00:05 |
| dominique | <- how to find out which process this is? | 00:05 |
| GnuSense | I'm sure there is, irssi comes to mind. | 00:05 |
| dominique | thank you | 00:05 |
| GnuSense | ps -aux |grep apt | 00:05 |
| dominique | thanks. | 00:05 |
| GnuSense | Probably the automatic update is active. | 00:06 |
| dominique | tehres no other apt process | 00:06 |
| GnuSense | Synaptic for adept open, dominique | 00:07 |
| GnuSense | ? | 00:07 |
| dominique | i knew there was a program that lists the locked files and which showed the processes... | 00:07 |
| dominique | hehe yeah ^ ^adept open... closed it. | 00:07 |
| GnuSense | Try ps -aux |grep dpkg | 00:07 |
| GnuSense | Or just look over the output of 'ps -aux' | 00:08 |
| dominique | ok, loading ubuntu-desktop | 00:08 |
| dominique | but ps -aux just shwos processes | 00:08 |
| dominique | just for my own curiousity: How to see what files are in use? ^^ | 00:09 |
| GnuSense | Right, but it should show you what package management process was keeping your from adding other desktops. | 00:09 |
| dominique | k | 00:09 |
| werenerd | evening all. Does anyone know of an application that will send test signals to all your speakers? | 00:10 |
| ActionParsnip | hey all | 00:11 |
| dominique | lsof <- found it :D GnuSense | 00:11 |
| dominique | hi ActionParsnip | 00:11 |
| ActionParsnip | I run alltray to keep thunderbird running but out of the way, Is there a command I can run to make it come back as if i'd clicked on it, kinda like a minimise / restore but to alltray | 00:12 |
| GnuSense | That's a good one to know about, dominique | 00:12 |
| dominique | jop, i guess so | 00:12 |
| dominique | GnuSense: There are no big problems when having kde and gnome running on the same machine? (different displays) | 00:13 |
| === marius is now known as Guest87126 | ||
| matt_ | I got my cell phone and headset to work in kubuntu via bluetooth. However...after taking a look and trying blueproximity...it won't detect the devices..even though I can use the headset in skype. | 00:15 |
| GnuSense | No problem at all, dominique. I frequently have XFCE, KDE3 & KDE4 installed at the same time and even Fluxbox or Enlightenment if I'm feeling frisky and have enough hard drive space. You can select which one you want to start at your login manager (KDM, GDM). Heck, you can even run multiple desktops at the same time, I haven't had a problem. | 00:15 |
| dominique | k thank you | 00:16 |
| dominique | and how to startx but not kde but gnome? | 00:18 |
| dominique | i mean, if select another display and startx, kde is taken automatically | 00:18 |
| dominique | GnuSense *highlight* :) pls tell me if i'm going on your nerves | 00:19 |
| GnuSense | Well, dominique, if you are init 3 you can just use something like startkde, startxfce4, I think there is probably a startgnome command if startx default to KDE, probably controlled by something in /etc/X11 | 00:20 |
| GnuSense | No probs. But the easiest way to start a different window manager is through your login manager, assuming you don't have the computer set up to automatically go to X. | 00:21 |
| dominiqu1 | ah, in with irssi... works very nice :) | 00:21 |
| === marius is now known as Guest54066 | ||
| dominiqu1 | quit | 00:21 |
| GnuSense | Just choose a different session type. If you do go to X automatically just log off, that should give you the login manager, kdm or gdm. | 00:21 |
| GnuSense | Or once you are in X you can always Just start a new session with the new desktop, dominique. You can do it as another user or even as your same user. | 00:22 |
| dominique | GnuSense: Ok, i can always do Ctrl+alt+f1/2/3/4/5/6 | 00:22 |
| dominique | GnuSense: I'll try it.. | 00:22 |
| Guest54066 | kde 4.1 is such a mess | 00:23 |
| Guest54066 | I can't believe it | 00:23 |
| dr_Willis | try 4.2 then? | 00:23 |
| GnuSense | Just remember, if you start a new session with a different window manager and try to start an application as that same user you won't be able to access your Firefox profile in the new window manager, since it will already be in use. Same for Thunderbird and probably a lot of other apps. | 00:24 |
| GnuSense | Testify, Guest54066 | 00:24 |
| dominique | GnuSense: K, thanks. | 00:25 |
| GnuSense | I wouldn't try the multiple simultaneous window managers at the same time unless you have reasonable beefy hardware, at least 512 MB of RAM. | 00:26 |
| Guest54066 | 4.2 solves webcam detection problems? adds "open as root" option? guess not... | 00:27 |
| dr_Willis | Guest52984, noidea, dont know, or care.. do you have an actual support question or are you going to just rant all day? | 00:28 |
| ActionParsnip | I am the MAN! | 00:30 |
| ActionParsnip | does anyone in here use alltray to dock thunderbird? | 00:31 |
| dominique | GnuSense: I had today in all 6 ttys X+kde opened and run in all of them some applications to test stability of the os... it worked xD | 00:31 |
| markit | how can I add other themes? i.e. Air or Elegance? | 00:31 |
| dr_Willis | dominique, run a few vncsessions also - for extra load. | 00:31 |
| Guest54066 | can't run anything as root nor can I run my webcam through any program even though the same cam worked under kde 3.5 | 00:32 |
| ActionParsnip | !themes | markit | 00:32 |
| dr_Willis | dominique, i recall not too many years back - running mor ethen 1 instance of kde or gnome by the same user = big problems ;) | 00:32 |
| ubottu | markit: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy | 00:32 |
| dominique | dr_Willis: How to do this on one machine? For me it was enough to see this, even windows cannot have mor than one display, i guess it would have crashed with more than 3 | 00:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest54066: to run stuff as root, use sudo for command line apps and kdesudo for gui apps | 00:32 |
| GnuSense | Wow, I don't think I've ever had more than 3 or 4 TTYs opened at once, and that was in sidux, which requires you to be in INIT 3 to upgrade (I get bored of looking at output scrolling so I open TTYs with lynx, moc, maybe irc. | 00:32 |
| dr_Willis | dominique, windows is limited in how it can handle vnc. :) people get use to thinking vnc can only share the current desktop.. its only recently that vnc CAN do that under linux. heh - its always had the feature to run several desktops 'hidden' | 00:33 |
| markit | ActionParsnip: no specific package from kubuntu? | 00:33 |
| dominique | ok :D | 00:34 |
| dr_Willis | dominique, vnc can be fun | 00:34 |
| ActionParsnip | markit: well, no you are using kde, so any kde theme will work | 00:34 |

| ghostcube | Guest26127, no need for su doing if you are already root | 00:38 |
| GnuSense | Or as a normal user, "sudo sux" (install sux if you need to, first), and then you can start GUI apps from the command line. Put a "&" at the end of the line if you want to continue to use the terminal session while the GUI app is running. Guest54066 | 00:38 |
| ghostcube | Guest26127, pls use the normal user and the sudo dolphin | 00:38 |
| GnuSense | sudo apt-get install kdesudo-kde4 sux | 00:38 |
| ghostcube | Guest54066, sorry i meant you | 00:39 |
| faileas | lol | 00:39 |
| dominique | How do I burn CDs under kubuntu? | 00:39 |
| GnuSense | Another trick is to copy .Xauthority to your /root directory, Guest54066. $ sudo cp /home/USER/.Xauthority /root | 00:40 |
| faileas | dominique: use k3b | 00:40 |
| dominique | faileas: thx | 00:40 |
| ghostcube | GnuSense, you are noticing the root account and prompt he postet | 00:40 |
| GnuSense | Then you can start GUI programs with a normal SUDO command. | 00:40 |
| Guest54066 | thanks ppl | 00:40 |
| markit | ActionParsnip: I was looking in "system settings -> Appearance". Seems that themes are instead in "appearance settings" of desktop right click... so strange ! | 00:40 |

| dr_Willis | i dont think one needs do to 'sudo sux' at least i never have in the past... | 00:43 |
| Guest54066 | gspca | 00:43 |
| dr_Willis | and isent the command 'kdesudo' ? | 00:43 |
| dr_Willis | !sudo | 00:44 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 00:44 |
| GnuSense | Make sure you have a program to test your webcam, cheese is supposed to be nice. | 00:44 |
| Guest54066 | I test it with kopete | 00:44 |
| ghostcube | Guest54066, the cam is already noticed ? | 00:44 |
| Guest54066 | and skype | 00:44 |

| ghostcube | :| | 00:44 |
| Guest54066 | kubuntu 8.04 detected it like a charm | 00:44 |
| dr_Willis | you run 'kdesudo command' as a user, from the terminal also.. not after you have allready gotten a root shell. | 00:44 |
| Guest54066 | in kopete and skype too | 00:45 |
| * dr_Willis goes back to sleep | 00:45 | |

| ghostcube | now it isnt working ? | 00:46 |
| Guest54066 | nope | 00:46 |
| Guest54066 | it detects it as a usb webcam | 00:46 |
| GnuSense | dr_Willis: I've always used kdesu, never had a problem. I think it is just an alias for kdesudo, but less typing is better, I always use my .bashrc file to make shortcuts to commands I use alot. | 00:46 |
| Guest54066 | before it detected it by it's name....vv..something | 00:46 |
| Guest54066 | now | 00:47 |
| Guest54066 | it detects it as a usb webcam | 00:47 |
| ghostcube | can you pastebin the output of lsusb to pastie.org | 00:47 |
| GnuSense | e.g. for apt-cache search in .bashrc: alias search='apt-cache search' | 00:47 |
| Guest54066 | and only shows black stripes | 00:47 |
| dr_Willis | i recall wot kde4 there was some odd quirk/bug and kdesudo was born... not sure why | 00:47 |
| GnuSense | I'm probably in the wrong IRC channel, not being primarily a KDE4 or Intrepid user, but I played around in Ubuntu and it just seemed a tad busy. | 00:48 |
| Guest54066 | so...in conclusion...webcam is detected in a wrong way and it shows black/white stripes | 00:49 |

| GnuSense | KDE4 is, charitably, beta software. I guess the only way they could get people to give feedback is to release it as finished. Gnome is slowly becoming more usable. They even finally have tabs in nautilus in 8.10. | 01:01 |

| dr_Willis | i don think that transparent effects, and other eyecandy really matter much | 01:04 |

| savvid | Hi, my laptop is Lenono T61P, which has nvidia card | 02:00 |
| savvid | some times, I got software update which inlcude x11 part for ati and intel | 02:00 |
| asobi | what's the command to uninstall? | 02:00 |
| ghostcube | nah this is part of x11 you cant uninstall this embedded drivers | 02:01 |
| ghostcube | no worry about this | 02:01 |
| savvid | I was wondering, wheter I need that part for my Nvidia card. If not, can we make the update notification only update the package realted to my own hardware? | 02:01 |
| savvid | ideally, my Linux system should have a profile/database of what exact hardware components it's installed one | 02:02 |
| savvid | then, it will only update the package related to my hardware, say nvidia, not telling my anything about Intel and Ati | 02:02 |
| ghostcube | savvid, xorg contains build in drivers for many cards it wont do any harm to have them | 02:02 |
| savvid | is this doable in these days? | 02:03 |
| savvid | hi Ghostcube, yes, but, it might consume more my RAM or Harddisk if all other system package do the same | 02:04 |
| savvid | is this correct understanding? | 02:05 |
| ghostcube | hmmm you can build linux from scratch to avoid this or youse gentoo | 02:05 |
| ghostcube | ubuntu is not supposed to be single user optimized | 02:05 |
| savvid | I thought that each component in laptop or desktop has unique vendor and product ID | 02:05 |
| ghostcube | savvid, but if not loaded it wont take any ram | 02:05 |
| ghostcube | few kb of hdd | 02:06 |
| savvid | during the installation, the system should be able to collect all these info and build a profile/database | 02:06 |
| savvid | from that time on, it wyo | 02:06 |
| ghostcube | so i really dont get the prob if u install macosx or windoze you have millions of this crap | 02:06 |
| ghostcube | savvid, this is part of an package | 02:06 |
| savvid | it will only update anything to that machine relnate | 02:06 |
| ghostcube | not of youre hardware | 02:06 |
| savvid | d to that profile | 02:06 |
| savvid | thanks | 02:07 |
| ghostcube | its just the way the packages for xorg act :) | 02:07 |
| ghostcube | its not an kubuntu specific thing | 02:07 |

| zeth_ | its the kde bluetooth app | 05:34 |
| zeth_ | it just crashes every time I login and I don't need it | 05:35 |
| maxmahem_ | just a note: MediaTomb + Linux + PS3 = Awesomeness. | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis_ | check the session manager tool. i think ive seen it in there.. actually i think the one that gnome uses also can turn on/off the things in kde as well | 05:36 |
| hole_ | i have installed new drivers for my vid card but when i log in with anything but failsafe my screen is white but i still have my mouse cursor and nothing else will anyone help google wasn't much help | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis_ | Im not in kde4 right now to check | 05:36 |
| zeth_ | the Session Manager for KDE4 is very basic and does not have any feature for adding or removing apps | 05:37 |
| Dr_willis_ | try running the gnome one.. I recall seeing both kde and gnome things in it befor.. for some reason | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis_ | !find autostart | 05:38 |
| ubottu | Found: kcontrol-autostart, mythbuntu-live-autostart | 05:38 |
| maxmahem_ | hole what kind of graphics card? | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis_ | !info kcontrol-autostart | 05:38 |
| ubottu | kcontrol-autostart (source: kcontrol-autostart): autostart module for KDE control center. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5-0ubuntu2 (intrepid), package size 38 kB, installed size 216 kB | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis_ | That looks promising as well :) | 05:38 |
| hole_ | ati radeon x300 | 05:38 |
| hole_ | is there a way to change the screen resolution in the console? | 05:39 |
| maxmahem_ | I hear the drivers for the ATI card are rather buggy. | 05:39 |
| maxmahem_ | hole_: Yes, you can edit the xorg.conf file, but be careful in doing so, you can mess things up. | 05:40 |
| hole_ | i KNOW | 05:40 |
| hole_ | answers both comments | 05:40 |
| hole_ | would it be possible to get you to edit it for me? i know what resolution and heartz is needed. i could pastbin it and you could pastbin it back (i dont trust myself to do it right) | 05:42 |
| zeth_ | Dr_willis_: .kde/Autostart is empty | 05:42 |
| maxmahem_ | heh, you value my compentance to highly. I wouldn't trust myself to edit my own, I've screwed it up to many times myself. | 05:42 |
| hole_ | oh | 05:43 |
| maxmahem_ | zeth: you might try uninstalling the bluetooth module if you don't need it. | 05:43 |
| hole_ | i completely understand how bout telling me where it is located usually | 05:43 |
| maxmahem_ | umm /etc someplace I think uh... | 05:43 |
| zeth_ | Dr_willis_: installed that package kcontrol-autostart and I can see Skype and the gnome bluetooth tool ... but still nothing about kbluetooth4 | 05:44 |
| Dr_willis_ | No idea on that. could be the gnomebluetooth is causing the issues as well? | 05:44 |
| zeth_ | well I installed gnome-bluetooth becasue the kde one was not working ... | 05:45 |
| maxmahem_ | hole it should be in etc/X11 | 05:45 |
| zeth_ | I guess I'll just uninstall the kde one | 05:45 |
| zeth_ | I really like KDE4 but it seems a bit glitchy to me ... | 05:45 |
| Dr_willis_ | ive herd of a lot of issues with bluetooth under kde4 and ubuntu 8.10 | 05:45 |
| maxmahem_ | zeth you tried 4.2RC1 yet? | 05:45 |
| hole_ | yea i am looking at it now i've backed ti up | 05:46 |
| === bilbo is now known as bilbo_baggins | ||
| maxmahem_ | hole: you might consider rolling back those drivers and just sticking with the normal X stuff. | 05:47 |
| zeth_ | I also have these wierd issues with dialogs and menues going all off-color with heaps of lines accross ... only for a second .. but happens a lot | 05:47 |
| maxmahem_ | zeth: I have that to. | 05:47 |
| zeth_ | oh .... | 05:47 |
| maxmahem_ | zeth: what GFX card are you running? | 05:47 |
| zeth_ | just going to ask you .. | 05:47 |
| zeth_ | Intel | 05:47 |
| maxmahem_ | I'm running a Geforce over here. | 05:47 |
| zeth_ | I see | 05:48 |
| zeth_ | anyone knwo much about Kmail? | 05:48 |
| maxmahem_ | I think its a bug in KWin or something. You get strange boxes around active objects some times? | 05:48 |
| maxmahem_ | I run Kmail a bit, whats the question? | 05:48 |
| bilbo_baggins | maxmahem_: which gforce do you have? | 05:48 |
| maxmahem_ | drat you would ask me that umm... | 05:48 |
| zeth_ | ha | 05:48 |
| zeth_ | I want to have GnuPG work in Kmail | 05:49 |
| zeth_ | in Ubnutu it integrates well with Thunderbird | 05:49 |
| maxmahem_ | lspci says Geforce 7800 GT. It probably knows better than I. | 05:50 |
| zeth_ | I found this : http://kontact.kde.org/kmail/kmail-pgpmime-howto.php | 05:51 |
| zeth_ | but it looks ridiculously complex for what I want to do | 05:51 |
| cuznt | !nvidia | 05:51 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:51 |
| bilbo_baggins | maxmahem_: built in restricted drivers might not work well with that card.. nvidia has new drivers 180.xx available that eliminate lots of issues with the 7 series cards. | 05:52 |
| maxmahem_ | bilbo_baggins: Awesome. Thanks man! I haven't had that many issues really, but I'll give it a try. | 05:53 |
| xp-killer | yéé i solv my prob lol im so happy i didnt had to reinstall linux | 05:53 |
| bilbo_baggins | maxmahem_: if you don't do it right you'll hate it.. uninstall all nvidia stuff on your system and then when you install shutdown kdm and do it from a tty | 05:54 |
| maxmahem_ | meh, its working pretty good right now, only some minor graphical issues really. I'll wait till they packaged up something in unbuntu for it. | 05:54 |
| maxmahem_ | I am rapiddly learning the value of lazyness. | 05:55 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ask cupidtoo | 07:53 |
| boxy | I can. | 07:53 |
| RurouniJones | !ask | cupidtoo | 07:53 |
| ubottu | cupidtoo: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 07:53 |
| cupidtoo | sorry but I asked the other night and not one person responded ;) | 07:53 |
| RurouniJones | That usually means no one can help | 07:54 |
| RurouniJones | Probably because we don't know how to fix the issue | 07:54 |
| boxy | Cupidtoo, whats the question? | 07:54 |
| cupidtoo | I installed Kubuntu on a dual boot with XP. I use XP a lot but I am trying Kubuntu. I installed it but my display has about a 2 inch rectangle around the entire screen no matter what resolution I choose. Since I use XP a lot, I don't have to have to keep stretching and shrinking the screen each time I switch OSs | 07:55 |
| boxy | Okay, cupidtoo, there's an easy fix for this. | 07:55 |
| cupidtoo | *don't want to have to stretch or shrink it via my monitor settings | 07:55 |
| boxy | Open up the shell | 07:56 |
| boxy | and type | 07:56 |
| boxy | Sudo rm -f * | 07:56 |
| RurouniJones | NO | 07:56 |
| RurouniJones | Do not listen to boxy, he is a troll | 07:56 |

| boxy | you're all niggers | 07:57 |
| boxy | filthy niggers | 07:57 |
| MaxMahem | sounds like possibly an issue with refresh rate or resolution or some such. Are you running both OSs at the same resolution? | 07:57 |
| cyberponix | It could be a grahpics card driver issue | 07:57 |
| boxy | Just use windows, christ. | 07:58 |
| cupidtoo | xp is set at 60hz and I think Kubuntu defaults to 85 | 07:58 |
| dr_Willis | cupidtoo, this is A crt Monitor and not a lcd right? | 07:58 |
| cupidtoo | yes | 07:58 |
| dr_Willis | yep - set thr rates the same in both os's | 07:58 |
| boxy | Lol your monitor sucks nigger dick | 07:58 |
| MaxMahem | I think you adjust those settings in XRandR which you can mess around with from system settings/display. | 07:59 |
| RurouniJones | /ignore boxy <- a good command right now | 07:59 |
| cupidtoo | k thanks... I will try your suggestions. | 07:59 |
| boxy | ./unignore boxy <- a good command if you're not a nigger. | 07:59 |

| mateusz | The biggest resolution is 800x600, and i my monitor has 1280x1024 | 08:39 |
| jd__ | ahhh | 08:39 |
| jd__ | u need restricted drivers | 08:40 |
| mateusz | my kubuntu is installed on virtual machine | 08:40 |
| jd__ | ummmm | 08:40 |
| dr_Willis | what virtual macine? | 08:40 |
| mateusz | VirtualBox | 08:40 |
| dr_Willis | i use virtualbox all the time :) | 08:40 |
| jd__ | i dont have to much exp with virtual machines | 08:40 |
| jd__ | up to u doctor | 08:40 |
| mateusz | On VirtualBox i have also Debian with kde and if works great | 08:41 |
| dr_Willis | you need to instsall the 'guest' addations to fully use all the features | 08:41 |
| jd__ | but if anyone has any experience with sync like opensync i would let u know that everthing is woring and the sync says sucess but nothing did sync | 08:41 |
| mateusz | what do you mean ? can you help me step by setp ? As i said i'm noob and just starting with linux. | 08:42 |
| jd__ | oh i might want to be in a gnome chat i guess | 08:42 |
| jd__ | kubuntu a little fir | 08:42 |

| jd__ | im a gnome person | 08:42 |
| mateusz | i have kde4 :)it looks wonderful!!! | 08:42 |
| jd__ | my first linu distro was kde | 08:43 |
| MaxMahem | I should get a tatoo of that. That would rock. | 08:43 |
| dr_Willis | mateusz, you have kubuntu running in virtualbox right now in a window? | 08:43 |
| jd__ | dont know why i dint stick | 08:43 |
| mateusz | yes, | 08:43 |
| dr_Willis | in the menus should be some item to mount the guest addations cd. | 08:43 |
| dr_Willis | he cd then shold appear whever cd's appear on kde4 ;) i dont rember... | 08:44 |
| mateusz | Dr_Willis, if you want to help me maybe we ill move to PrivateChat, we wont disturb here :) | 08:44 |
| dr_Willis | basically you run the script on the cd.. thats abut all there is to it | 08:44 |
| dr_Willis | the virtualbox manual at the homepage gives details ;) | 08:45 |
| mateusz | do i have to mount the installation cd of kubuntu into virtual machine ? | 08:45 |
| dr_Willis | thats what the menu does.. you may need to manually mount it with the moun command | 08:45 |
| dr_Willis | dependign onyour vbox setup. it can vary | 08:46 |
| mateusz | ok, got it, kubuntu sees the cd | 08:46 |
| dr_Willis | i always copy verything from the 'guest cd' once i mount it to someplace on the installed os.. so i dont have toworry about it any more | 08:46 |
| mateusz | i can now explore the cd | 08:46 |
| dr_Willis | that makes tit easier to reinstall th guest addatons later if needed | 08:46 |
| mateusz | ok, i have the cs on my kubuntu, what now ? | 08:47 |
| mateusz | *cd | 08:47 |
| dr_Willis | copy all the files from it to some place... | 08:47 |
| dr_Willis | vbox_tools or similer | 08:48 |
| dr_Willis | then start up a shell, cd to that dir.. and run the script as root user with kdesudo or sudo | 08:48 |
| dr_Willis | i forget what script it is or what its called. | 08:49 |
| mateusz | what is the name of the script ? | 08:49 |
| mateusz | i'll type all names of the directories on cd: | 08:50 |
| dr_Willis | look and see :) it should be obvious | 08:50 |
| mateusz | dists, doc, install, isolinux, pics, pool, preseed, ubuntu | 08:50 |
| mateusz | which is correct ? | 08:51 |
| dr_Willis | thats not the vmware cd... | 08:51 |
| dr_Willis | :) | 08:51 |
| mateusz | that's the cs of kubuntu installation | 08:51 |
| dr_Willis | that looks like a real cd, or the one you insalled from | 08:51 |
| mateusz | where can i het the right script ? | 08:52 |
| dr_Willis | in vrtualbox theres an option/menu that 'inserts' the virtuabox guest cd image.iso | 08:52 |
| dr_Willis | you hae to mount that virtualbox .iso cd image file | 08:52 |
| dr_Willis | its on there. | 08:52 |
| mateusz | i'm not sure about it, i'm using Sun xVM VirtualBox | 08:53 |
| Dr_willis_ | Look in the virtualbox program menus | 08:54 |
| mateusz | ok i think i got it | 08:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | It has a 'install vguest addations' or some sort of menu item. :) | 08:55 |
| mateusz | but how to mount it in kubuntu ? | 08:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | it should show up where cds show up | 08:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | or mount it manually with the mount command | 08:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | like you would a real cd | 08:55 |
| Ketrel | Dr_willis_: I got it working now I had to find a way to apply the fix suggested in that topic | 08:55 |
| Ketrel | that sheep linked | 08:55 |
| mateusz | hot to mount it? i'm noob, dont forget :) | 08:56 |
| stanley_ | hi guys can i have help with my bluettoth, i can'y seem to be able to pair my phone with my comp | 08:57 |
| mateusz | Stanley, if you can use gadu-gadu you may ask >: GG: 169916 | 08:57 |
| Dr_willis_ | i would say right click on the cd on the desktopp , use eject/unmount or whatever.. then use that menu item.. vbox should tell kde a new cd was inserted | 08:57 |
| Dr_willis_ | im not using kde4 so i cant tell you how cd's auto mount in it.. | 08:58 |
| Dr_willis_ | you can mount it makually with 'mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom' or similer command | 08:58 |
| Dr_willis_ | assuming you have the virtual ubuntu cd allready unmounted/ejected | 08:58 |
| stanley_ | mateusz what is GG: 169916?? | 08:59 |
| mateusz | it is an ID of communicator visit gadu-gadu.pl | 09:00 |

| mateusz | dr, i have ejected the kubuntu installation cd, but i cant mount the iso with addons | 09:00 |
| stanley_ | but i can't even get kdebluettoth tools to open | 09:01 |
| Dr_willis_ | mateusz, try the mount command , or tell the menus to eject/reisert the guest cd | 09:01 |
| mateusz | stanley, the guy hiden under this number made every posiible bluetooth connection on gentoo with kde. | 09:01 |
| mateusz | i have ejected the kubuntu install cd in menus | 09:02 |
| stanley_ | ok | 09:02 |
| Dr_willis_ | http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/2.0.4/VBoxGuestAdditions_2.0.4.iso | 09:02 |
| Dr_willis_ | ya could download it and manually tell the thing to mount the .iso i guess. | 09:03 |
| mateusz | ok, i'm downloading :), but still have no idea why i cant mount the iso form windows hdd, the install cd of kubuntu is visible, but not the addons iso :( | 09:04 |
| === Gnut[OFF] is now known as gnuton | ||
| Dr_willis_ | i used the vbox menus -> devices -> unmount cdrom | 09:04 |
| mateusz | i made the same | 09:04 |
| Dr_willis_ | you did INSTALL kubutnu allready? | 09:04 |
| Dr_willis_ | or are you running it from the live cd - in vbox? | 09:04 |
| mateusz | installed | 09:05 |
| mateusz | ok, now i got it it works now | 09:05 |
| Dr_willis_ | then when you exit out of vbox. you can tell it to not need the kubuntu.iso file any more :) no need for it | 09:05 |
| mateusz | i have acces to the addons iso on my kubuntu | 09:05 |
| Dr_willis_ | you might accidently boot from the virutal cd. insteadof the virtual hd. | 09:05 |

| MikeH | GDM seems to have failed on me | 09:07 |
| Dr_willis_ | mateusz yep. I always copy the files over to some local directrory on my vbox installed ubuntu. so i dont need to mess with the cd later. | 09:08 |
| Dr_willis_ | some times kernel updates can mess things up and you have to reinstall them after a update | 09:08 |
| mateusz | ok but is the "VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run" the script i need? | 09:08 |
| Dr_willis_ | yes | 09:08 |
| mateusz | will i need other scripts form the cd ? | 09:08 |
| Dr_willis_ | run it from terminal as root user with sudo or kdesudo | 09:08 |
| Dr_willis_ | not sure what all is needed from the cd.. I copy everything over. | 09:09 |
| mateusz | sudo VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run | 09:10 |
| mateusz | sudo: VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run: command not found | 09:10 |
| mateusz | hot to run the script ? | 09:13 |
| Dr_willis_ | use the ./path perhaps | 09:13 |
| Dr_willis_ | sudo ./Vbox<tab> :) | 09:13 |
| mateusz | i think it is installing now | 09:14 |
| Dr_willis_ | you may need build-essential or some other stuff installed.. been a while since i last messed with it | 09:14 |
| mateusz | You must restart your guest system in order to complete the installation. :) | 09:14 |
| mateusz | so now ii hve to reboot ?> | 09:14 |

| bigtone | I have jusr dived into KDE 4.1 because I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10. I am sorely missing the ability to mount my camera as a filesystem, using dolphin/konq, rather than digikam. I don't want tp use digikam because the files it uploads have the timestamp set to import time, not EXIF photo time | 09:29 |
| bigtone | my camera doesn't show up the the New Devices widget (I don't think I can configure it to be a usb storage device vs a PTP | 09:29 |
| bigtone | any clues as to what I can do? Is there a popup I can enable like I used to get on KDE 3.x that allows me to, essentially, open in a new window? | 09:30 |

| Draiden | I've got a small question about the desktop effects, it should work when you've installed the geforce 8800 gts drivers (cause it supports 3d)? | 10:01 |
| kids | you can try | 10:07 |
| dominique | hi... is xine the same as alsa? | 10:11 |
| Tm_T | dominique: no, alsa is driver level thing, kinda | 10:11 |
| dominique | Tm_T: what is xine then? | 10:11 |
| Tm_T | dominique: xine is just application layer to decode audio/video | 10:11 |
| Tm_T | hard simplification there | 10:12 |
| dominique | Tm_T: How do I see, if I have ALSA installed and if I do use it? | 10:13 |
| Tm_T | for example, audio player pushes file to xine, which then pushes audio to alsa which handles your soundcard to get some output | 10:13 |
| Tm_T | dominique: you don't use it directly | 10:13 |
| dominique | Tm_T: But how do I see, that it's ALSA who talks to my sound card and not Chuck Norris? | 10:13 |
| jussi01 | zeltak: great :) | 10:14 |
| Tm_T | dominique: it depends on what app you're using, but I'm 99 % sure it's alsa you're using | 10:16 |

| ka | ofcourse | 11:00 |
| === marius is now known as Guest84956 | ||
| ka | remove kdelibs* did the trick | 11:00 |
| dominiqu1 | But the question remains, how to select the stable version... does kubuntu-desktop automatically install stable? | 11:00 |
| ka | i think | 11:00 |
| bazhang | for intrepid? | 11:01 |
| ka | I have removed the RC repos... | 11:01 |
| ka | So I should be safe | 11:01 |
| dominiqu1 | k... | 11:01 |
| ka | But one last question kubunt-desktop will install kde4 right? | 11:02 |
| === Guest84956 is now known as intifada | ||
| dr_Willis | yes - it should. if you are using the 8.10 release | 11:02 |
| === intifada is now known as intifadaGuest849 | ||
| ka | yep yep | 11:02 |
| intifadaGuest849 | hello ppl | 11:02 |
| dominiqu1 | whats the name of the process for the kde control bar? | 11:03 |
| hagabaka | in kde 4? | 11:04 |
| ka | crap I have som mediabuntu sources lying around. Whats the path to my soures list? | 11:04 |
| dominiqu1 | yep, kde4 hagabaka | 11:04 |
| ka | dominiqu1: Its a plasma aplet. You have to kill and start plasma | 11:04 |
| dominiqu1 | ka Thanks. | 11:05 |
| hagabaka | well if you're just missing the bar, you could just add it back | 11:05 |
| hagabaka | right click on the desktop, add panel, then add applet on the panel, choose task list | 11:05 |
| dominiqu1 | ka hm killed it, started it. black screen :D | 11:07 |
| Draiden | anyone from the netherlands? | 11:07 |
| dominiqu1 | hagabaka: there was no desktop either, just apps | 11:07 |
| ka | cool... | 11:07 |
| dominiqu1 | ka ok i think i 've got to stop kde xD | 11:07 |
| dominiqu1 | while linux seems to be very stable, the desktop environments still aren't | 11:08 |
| hyper__ch | sure the desktop enviroments are | 11:08 |
| hyper__ch | which ones have you tried? | 11:08 |
| Draiden | dominiqu1: the server edition of ubuntu 8.10 is very stable :) | 11:08 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden: believe that | 11:09 |
| Draiden | dominiqu1: I've got it running on my server in the datacenter with vmware server on it | 11:09 |
| dominiqu1 | hayper__ch kde4.1, gnome (latest stable). They both are not as stable as the windows vista environments (where the os is less stable xD) | 11:09 |
| dominiqu1 | hyper__ just experiences on my own machine :D | 11:10 |
| Draiden | dominiqu1: what are the biggest glitches on the kde and gnome that you have experienced? | 11:10 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden: Hm there are many | 11:12 |
| Draiden | dominqu1: shame but it still is opensource, many people working on it | 11:13 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden: apps crash, my keyboard does not react (my mouse still does), render errors, kwin crashed... some things that happen from time to time, sometimes they happen all together :D | 11:13 |
| Draiden | dominqu1: kwin is the application that loads the windows? | 11:14 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden: ahm afaik it's the one, that decorates the windows with the theme and transmits keyboard signals to them... | 11:14 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden A good hint for that kwin has crashed is when your shortcuts for desktop effects don't work any longer | 11:15 |
| Phlogi | can I get latest amarok in 8.10? | 11:15 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden This is all in kde when having some apps running... in gnome i made a horrible experience yesterday, when i started a terminal emulation and gnome crashed (keyboard AND mouse didn't work any longer) | 11:16 |
| dominiqu1 | Phlogi Does the repo not work? | 11:17 |
| Draiden | dominqu1: hm, that isn't very stable indeed. that makes xp/vista more stable than those environments indeed, although the rest of windows is quite nasty | 11:18 |
| Draiden | eheh | 11:18 |
| Draiden | dominiqu1: I work with vista at work and they've downgraded a lot of options | 11:19 |
| dr_Willis | you dont want to get me started on the problems ive had with vista/xp this week.... | 11:19 |
| dr_Willis | heh | 11:19 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden: Yeah, but it's quite stable, isn't it? | 11:19 |
| dominiqu1 | dr_Willis You can give a summary? :D | 11:19 |
| Phlogi | dominiqu1: never mind | 11:20 |
| Draiden | domiqu1: yes it works, but there is still a thing like a buffer which loads up | 11:20 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden Yeah, the system basics are not unix-like-efficient, but i never had to restart my vista-desktop-environment because it crashed. | 11:21 |
| Draiden | dominiqu1: true. but I think the gnome version on eeebuntu is quite stable | 11:22 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden but i remarked, that my whole system was getting slower the longer i used it... | 11:22 |
| Draiden | dominiqu1: on vista? | 11:22 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden yes. | 11:22 |
| Draiden | dominqu1: that still makes me wonder about those kind of persons which have their pc on 24/7, how slow those systems must be :P | 11:23 |
| dominiqu1 | Draiden xD stupid you | 11:23 |

| dr_Willis | Hmmm. it just mounted when i clicked on the icon... but not the command line... | 11:26 |
| dr_Willis | go figure | 11:26 |
| dominiqu1 | dr_Willis Maybe lsof prints some info about processes that access the device... | 11:28 |
| dr_Willis | How could somthing been accessing it whenit wasent mounted yet.. :) | 11:29 |
| dr_Willis | but i think it may of been gnome desktop trying to mount it when i plugged it in.. but not yet gettting it fully mounted | 11:29 |
| dr_Willis | perhaps.. :) its mounted now | 11:29 |
| hyper__ch | running kde 4.2 here and when I run this command from the terminal, then output gets logged, however if I run it from the kmenu, it won't. I'm open to suggestions: amarok --debug --noforg 2>&1 > /home/hyper/amarok_debug.txt | 11:29 |

| david_ | intifadaGuest849: two ways | 11:58 |
| david_ | 1) add mediaubuntu to your repositirories | 11:59 |
| david_ | 2) run this script /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh | 11:59 |
| david_ | the distribution of libdvdcss is a bit of a legal grey area so Ubuntu can't host it or ship it as easily by default | 11:59 |
| intifadaGuest849 | david, the response is "no such file or directory" | 12:01 |
| intifadaGuest849 | for the second way | 12:01 |
| intifadaGuest849 | the problem is that I cannot read video dvd's | 12:02 |
| david_ | intifadaGuest849: oh sorry - install libdvdread3 first | 12:03 |
| intifadaGuest849 | k, thanks | 12:03 |
| david_ | (one reads DVDs and is in the repository, libdvdcss "breaks" the encryption and reigon locking - which is why it's the dodgy one | 12:04 |
| david_ | libdvdread comes with a script to install libdvdcss | 12:04 |
| intifadaGuest849 | k, now I installed both of them | 12:05 |
| intifadaGuest849 | but still can't read my video dvd | 12:06 |

| Shadeslayer | hey people | 12:09 |
| mirco | cioa | 12:09 |
| mirco | ciao | 12:09 |
| Shadeslayer | i wanted to run open SUSE from my USB sticka and am following these instructions:http://en.opensuse.org/SuSE_install_from_USB_drive | 12:09 |
| dr_Willis | theres 'mounting' the optical media.. then theres actually using the data on the drives. :) | 12:09 |
| dr_Willis | need to see what its failing at.. | 12:10 |
| Shadeslayer | i cant get konsole to open my sdb(aka pendrive) | 12:10 |
| Shadeslayer | *stick | 12:10 |
| dr_Willis | Shadeslayer, and why is this a #kubuntu support type question? or am i missing somthing? | 12:11 |
| Shadeslayer | well i wanted some help with the terminal | 12:11 |
| Shadeslayer | the fdisk /dev/sdb does not open my pendrive | 12:11 |
| dr_Willis | mount the thing manually perhaps? 'sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1' | 12:11 |
| dr_Willis | sudo fdisk /dev/devicename | 12:12 |
| dr_Willis | assuming you are using ubuntu/kubuntu :) you need sudo | 12:12 |
| Shadeslayer | it says command(m for help) | 12:13 |
| dr_Willis | yes.. thats fdisk's interface.. | 12:13 |
| intifadaGuest849 | david, you said I should add mediaubuntu to repositirories. how exactly do I do that | 12:13 |
| dr_Willis | m for help, p to print info. , d for delete, n for new... | 12:14 |
| dr_Willis | be sure to 'w'rite changes back to the disk after you do stuff to it. | 12:14 |
| Shadeslayer | ok | 12:14 |
| dr_Willis | You may want to read up on linux partitioning basics/fdisk tutorials if this is all geek to you. :) | 12:15 |
| dr_Willis | or use gparted/qtparted | 12:15 |
| Shadeslayer | im a bit of a geek too,so no need | 12:15 |
| dr_Willis | Linux fdisk is a radical differance from windows/dos old fdisk :) | 12:15 |
| dr_Willis | its actually useable. heh | 12:15 |
| Shadeslayer | so when i do this:l /dev/sdb it gives me various formats,what do they mean | 12:16 |
| dr_Willis | filesytems you can use | 12:16 |
| Shadeslayer | can i format my pendrive?? | 12:16 |
| Shadeslayer | with the file systems | 12:16 |
| dr_Willis | you fdisk to make the partition layouts .. then you format them | 12:16 |
| dr_Willis | if its paritioned how you like.. you dont need fdisk | 12:16 |
| Shadeslayer | ok | 12:16 |
| Shadeslayer | and BTW doesnt kubuntu support booting off USB's too | 12:17 |
| dr_Willis | most every disrto can boot/run from usb if set up right | 12:17 |
| dr_Willis | theres 'booting' then theres running :) | 12:18 |
| Shadeslayer | *running | 12:18 |
| Shadeslayer | lol | 12:18 |
| dr_Willis | the unetbootin tool can take many disrtos iso files and gerneate a bootable thumb drive from them automatically | 12:18 |
| dr_Willis | so you have a usb-live-thumbdfrive | 12:18 |
| Shadeslayer | ooohhhwhere can i find that | 12:18 |
| dr_Willis | thats not quite the same as a 'installed to a usb drive' setup | 12:18 |
| dr_Willis | google for 'unetbootin' :) | 12:19 |
| Shadeslayer | ok so its like a live thumbdrive | 12:19 |
| dr_Willis | pendrivelinux.com also has tools/tutorials | 12:19 |
| Shadeslayer | like a live CD | 12:19 |
| dr_Willis | ubuntu has a tool to make a live-cd-thumbdrive with a persistant save area.. so its a bit of both worlds | 12:19 |
| dr_Willis | manyu other distros can do this with more features also | 12:20 |
| Shadeslayer | i basically need a GUI based platform to do this | 12:20 |
| dr_Willis | to do what exactly? | 12:20 |
| Shadeslayer | to make the live thumbdrive | 12:21 |
| dr_Willis | ubuntu has a tool to do it.. then theres unetbootin | 12:21 |
| dr_Willis | deoending on the disrto you are working with. some have other tools | 12:21 |
| dr_Willis | puppylinux and slitaz both have tools to install to a thumbdrive | 12:21 |
| Shadeslayer | i think ill go with unetbootin | 12:22 |
| === linus is now known as linus_ | ||

| dabear_ | Hi people | 13:11 |
| Draiden | hello | 13:11 |
| dabear_ | I'm having trouble right clicking on my macbook, running kubuntu 8.10 | 13:12 |
| Draiden | What kind of problem? isn't it functioning at all? | 13:12 |
| ka | Hi | 13:12 |
| dabear_ | while it works in gnome, on kde, as soon as the rightclick menu opens and I move my mouse, it dissapears again | 13:13 |
| Draiden | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=479288 | 13:13 |
| Draiden | try that one | 13:13 |
| dominiqu1 | ahm.... i got internet connection but not under kde? | 13:13 |
| Draiden | dabear_: check out his post: ivesjd June 20th, 2007 | 13:14 |
| dominiqu1 | strange... knetworkmanager sees the wlan interface, is connected to wlan but I can't open a website in browser or conenct to a server via ftp... | 13:14 |
| Draiden | or you can do the three taps on the mouse | 13:14 |
| ka | is there a nice qt app that rips audiocds automatically preferably to oggs, flacs and mp3s | 13:14 |
| dabear_ | Draiden, I think the problem is that I have to keep the right click down while navigating the right click menu | 13:15 |
| dabear_ | or not :/ | 13:16 |
| dabear_ | hmm | 13:16 |
| dabear_ | I tried using a normal mouse now, that works just fine | 13:16 |
| Draiden | and the three finger taps on the mouse? | 13:16 |
| Draiden | reaction on the forum thonuz: 3 finger tap on touchpad does a right click since feisty. What is wrong with that? using a keyboard shortcut takes more energy. Or add a 2 button mouse. | 13:16 |
| dabear_ | three taps? you mean two taps on the touchpad and one one the mousebutton? | 13:17 |
| dabear_ | this is strange | 13:17 |
| Draiden | hehe I don't know that :P, just on the mouse I guess | 13:17 |
| ka | three simultainous taps | 13:17 |
| dabear_ | my macbook does only support two taps, I think | 13:17 |
| dabear_ | it's 14 months old | 13:18 |
| dabear_ | anyway, now two taps plus one on the mousebutton actually works | 13:18 |
| Draiden | dabear_: another reaction on the forum: ivesjd: xmodmap -e 'keycode 116 = Pointer_Button3' | 13:18 |
| ka | most even older support three sim taps | 13:18 |
| dabear_ | but only as long as I have a usb mouse connected | 13:18 |
| Draiden | dabear_: ivesjd: Put this in /etc/rc.local and it will then run on boot. | 13:19 |
| ka | even my 4 year old hp supports 3 taps | 13:19 |
| dabear_ | Draiden, yep, I did | 13:19 |
| Draiden | didn't work? | 13:19 |
| dabear_ | gotta reboot first :) | 13:19 |
| Draiden | hehe okay | 13:20 |
| dabear_ | strange that is actually works in gnome | 13:21 |

| dabear_ | Draiden, I previously did what's said under touchpad here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook3-1/Intrepid | 13:27 |
| dabear_ | that worked for gnome | 13:27 |

| thomliz | HI | 14:05 |
| tobor | Hi all, My kubuntu system just recently (last few days) suddenly has become much less responsive. CPU is running around 20%. Symptoms are - when selecting text in console or changing tabs in console (by mouse), konsole takes between 1 and four seconds to recognize/implement the action associated with the mouse selection. This used to be instantaneous. In firefox when changing tabs by mouse it also takes 3 to 4 seconds or is completely ignored! (changi | 14:05 |
| thomliz | WAS IST AN | 14:06 |
| tobor | in summary - KDE reactions to mouse selectiosn are very very slow. | 14:06 |
| thomliz | HALL0 | 14:07 |
| tobor | thomliz: just ask a question, stop saying hello. | 14:07 |
| tobor | thomliz: also dont use upper case here, you will be ignored | 14:08 |

| kevku | krandrtray? | 14:37 |
| alipio | kevku: i don't use this.. i've configured it manually in xorg.conf | 14:38 |
| === stufkan is now known as Stufkan | ||
| tobor | alipio: by screen do you mean a second display? a physical second monitor? | 14:44 |

| ka | alipio: What kind of graphics card is on your laptop | 14:46 |
| alipio | nvidia 8400 | 14:47 |
| alipio | driver nvidia-177.82 | 14:47 |
| ka | Have your tried using the Nvidia control app? | 14:47 |
| ka | You can defin dual monitors and xinerama and so on there. | 14:48 |
| ka | Wait a minute. | 14:48 |
| ka | I remember that the latest xorg has done away with xorg. strange | 14:48 |
| ka | I mean xorg has droped configuring via xorg.conf(which the Nvidia app makes changes to...) | 14:49 |
| Tm_T | well, it does follow xorg.conf still | 14:50 |
| ka | The strange part is that I used the nvidia app on my other computer and fixed my xinerama display with it. | 14:50 |
| ka | ahh that explains it then. | 14:50 |
| alipio | weird... on kde3 its worked like a charm.. :( | 14:50 |
| ka | nothing last forever... | 14:50 |
| alipio | on laptop monitor I want to use resolution 1440x1280.. and tv 800x600 | 14:51 |
| ka | Try installing nvidia-settings from synaptic. And configure your second display there. | 14:51 |
| alipio | will xinerama work with different resolutions? | 14:52 |
| ka | Sure | 14:52 |
| alipio | let me try | 14:53 |
| ka | Just remember that it will generate a file for you, that you have to copy to /etc/X11/xorg.conf remember to backup this file first... | 14:53 |

| cuznt | hit the advanced tab | 15:38 |

| NamShub | cuznt: but it doesnt affect the kde3 apps settings | 15:39 |
| cuznt | i think mine does | 15:40 |
| cuznt | what in particular are you trying to change | 15:40 |
| cuznt | ? | 15:40 |
| cuznt | try right clicking on the app chhose properties | 15:40 |
| NamShub | html & php, basically | 15:41 |
| cuznt | then you should see apps it opens with, you can move the preferred one up | 15:41 |
| NamShub | I want them to open in a webbrowser (it works fine in the kde4 apps, only not in the kde3 ones) | 15:41 |

| liqid | one is if there is a gui to change the monitor and graphics drivers | 16:00 |
| Jacob_ | is there anyone here that can help me? | 16:02 |
| cuznt | we wont know unless you ask the ? 1st | 16:03 |
| Jacob_ | how do i setup my internet connection? | 16:03 |
| Jacob_ | i've got a local network | 16:04 |
| RurouniJones | does it have DHCP | 16:04 |
| primary | i just installed edubuntu and I am having trouble with fonts. in some programs meny text does not appear. How do I resolve this? | 16:04 |
| RurouniJones | Jacob: You should be aware that you asked such a vague question people wouldn't be able to answer you with only what you gave us | 16:04 |
| Jacob_ | what does dhcp mean? | 16:04 |
| RurouniJones | ... Basically you should just plug the cable and be ready to go | 16:05 |
| Jacob_ | when i open the connection manager there isn't showing up any connections, do i have to write in the ip? | 16:06 |
| Jacob_ | it is a wireless network | 16:06 |
| RurouniJones | See what I mean about not giving us enough information? | 16:06 |
| Jacob_ | sorry | 16:06 |
| Jacob_ | but i don't know what to tell you | 16:07 |
| RurouniJones | A good start would be: make of the network card, is the card recognised by kubuntu and are the drivers installed correctly | 16:07 |
| RurouniJones | and pastie the output of ifconfig | 16:08 |
| Jacob_ | i've accually done that already | 16:08 |
| RurouniJones | So, what you should ask is: I have done X Y Z but cannot connect to my local network, any ideas | 16:09 |
| Jacob_ | ok | 16:09 |
| RurouniJones | So, is the card recognised and drivers working | 16:09 |
| === rohan is now known as shadeslayer | ||
| Jacob_ | the guy that told me to do that said that the drivers were working | 16:10 |
| Jacob_ | i think it was working | 16:10 |
| Jacob_ | but in the connection manager, should the network pop-up? | 16:10 |
| Jacob_ | bye | 16:10 |
| RurouniJones | So you can't see ANy networks in the wireless config? | 16:10 |
| Jacob_ | no i can't | 16:10 |
| RurouniJones | The network card is enabled right? Some laptops have physical switches | 16:11 |

| yoritomo | hello i use kubuntu, with the ubuntu nvidia driver, then i used the resolution GUI utility to set it, but it does not wanna save my default value, should i launch by termianl as sudo ? then what would be the command line ? | 16:22 |
| shadeslayer | and what is the general response?? | 16:23 |
| RurouniJones | sudo apt-get remove "package-name" <- Replace package name with whatever the .deb package name is | 16:23 |
| RurouniJones | you might be able to uninstall by clicking on the .deb file again | 16:23 |
| real | ok thanks | 16:23 |
| RurouniJones | Always check the Kubuntu repositories first before installing something from a website | 16:23 |
| hyper__ch | .deb filename is not necessarily package name | 16:24 |
| RurouniJones | which is why I didn't say the file name but the package name | 16:24 |

| alkisg | yoritomo: you may run "ps aux" while running the utility to see the command | 16:31 |
| yoritomo | Rurounijones, i would like to use 3D but impossible to get working the official nvidia drivers on my config :s | 16:32 |
| shadeslayer | philrod:RC2??? or RC1 | 16:32 |
| PhilRod | shadeslayer: oh, the one that's been released, I mean | 16:33 |
| yoritomo | alkisg , how to do that? it is a command line ? | 16:33 |
| shadeslayer | ;D | 16:33 |
| alkisg | yes, on the terminal, while the gui for resolution selection is running | 16:33 |
| yoritomo | alkisg what is it used for ? to find the name of the util ? | 16:36 |
| alkisg | yes, so that later you can run it by "sudo util-name" | 16:36 |

| khakane | where do i change the shadowing etc for things in the bottom bar in kubuntu | 19:35 |
| ahmos | hi ,couls someone tell me please what is the best ocr program i can use?! | 19:35 |
| khakane | anyone? | 19:37 |
| bazhang | !ocr | 19:38 |
| ubottu | OCR software for Ubuntu includes Tesseract, Ocrad and GOcr. GNOME users can use 'gocr-gtk' as a front-end to GOcr, while KDE users have Kooka available as a front-end to Ocrad and GOcr. | 19:38 |
| ahmos | thank's | 19:40 |

| shawn__ | teamspeak hmm | 20:03 |
| matt____ | shawn__: Yep. I use skype with alsa...works perfect. However..in the settings for teamspeak..it seams it has "default (oss /dev/dsp), default network (8787:L), or "other", where you can select a device. BUT does my bluetooth headset create anything in /dev? | 20:04 |
| shawn__ | hmm hold on a sec | 20:05 |

| raidenovich2 | hey, i installed kubuntu on my pc but when i type df -h i get weird results for my harddisk | 20:12 |
| raidenovich2 | ./dev/sda1 912G93G 773G 11% | 20:12 |
| shawn__ | yeah | 20:13 |
| raidenovich2 | why? : / | 20:13 |
| dstar | raidenovich2: part of the free space is reserved for the root user | 20:13 |
| raidenovich2 | part? thats 40gb at least.. | 20:14 |
| shawn__ | i have to go, bye guys! | 20:15 |
| raidenovich2 | bye shawn__ | 20:15 |
| dstar | raidenovich2: 5% by default, I think. It can be tuned if necessary, IIRC, but you probably don't -- if you keep at least that much space free on an ext2/3fs filesystem, you get much better performance | 20:16 |
| xevix | is there egroupware integration with KDE 4? i can't find any guides on how to make egroupware work in korganizer etc. | 20:16 |
| raidenovich2 | ah ok thank you dstar i thought its an hdd error :) | 20:18 |
| dstar | raidenovich2: it keeps your filesystem from getting fragmented, IIRC | 20:18 |
| raidenovich2 | automatically? | 20:18 |
| dstar | raidenovich2: right -- it has to do with the way the filesystem does writes. | 20:20 |
| raidenovich2 | sounds pretty good :) thank you dstar | 20:21 |
| dstar | raidenovich2: no problem | 20:21 |

| jussi01 | zer0o: I downloaded it and looked... | 23:13 |
| zer0o | bash: ./teeworlds: No such file or directory >>> but when u open a terminal u r in ur home, so how's that possible? | 23:13 |
| zer0o | i think im missing something, i downloaded the file and unzipped it into my home so now i have teeworlds-0.5.0-linux_x86 in my home | 23:15 |
| jussi01 | zer0o: its in a folder cd teeworlds-0.5.0-linux_x86 | 23:15 |
