| EtFb | Didn't test that. Hang on, just trying The Artist Formerly Known As Hibernate... which is taking a lot longer, as you'd expect with a RAM disk! Hang on... how does that work? Bugger, I suspect it may be the Wrong Thing to even try... | 00:01 |
| Dr_willis | ive had way to many problems with Hibernate/suspend - i dont even try it in any OS any more | 00:01 |
| jpedroza | alonea: Not sure | 00:02 |
| EtFb | Yes, that was rather silly. Running a Live CD, so naturally Suspend to Disk is a bit useless... At least it didn't kill my hard disk... I think... | 00:02 |
| Dr_willis | in theory it would suspend to the Swap partition.. - i think :) | 00:02 |
| alonea | Dr_willis: hey do you know where I could hardcode the width of the plasma bar? it doesn't do it right on my friends computer and has to resize it on every login | 00:02 |
| EtFb | Dr_willis: What version were you running when you last had trouble? | 00:02 |
| PSiL0 | !wifi | 00:03 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:03 |
| Dr_willis | alonea, not really. | 00:03 |
| alonea | Dr_willis: was worth a shot to ask | 00:03 |
| jpedroza | alonea: Has he tried locking the panel? | 00:03 |
| Dr_willis | EtFb, ive had issues with hibernate/suspend in every machine ive ever had with every os ive ever had.. :) the only one it seems to work decently well on.. is my Acer Aspire one and XP :) | 00:03 |
| EtFb | Dr_willis: I felt like I was in a Greg Egan novel for a second (an obscure reference? Substitute "in The Matrix" if it helps.) | 00:03 |
| jpedroza | Right click->Lock Widgets | 00:03 |
| alonea | jpedroza: i tried locking it last night with no luck | 00:03 |
| Dr_willis | EtFb, and then theissue is that sure the OS resumes.. but a lot of the apps HATE it when they get resumed. | 00:03 |
| jpedroza | bummer | 00:03 |
| PSiL0 | so, my wireless connection (router: WRT54GL [tomato firmware]) has been working fine for about two months, suddenly two days ago, the connection dropped from knetwork | 00:04 |
| PSiL0 | any attempt reconnect was in vain | 00:04 |
| alonea | jpedroza: it just went back to its small width with no plasma icon to the right. | 00:04 |
| PSiL0 | the only way to reconnect is to restart my laptop | 00:04 |
| PSiL0 | anyone had similar issues? | 00:04 |
| EtFb | Dr_willis: I used to get weird behaviour with my wifi card refusing to wake up, so I had to reboot (no idea how else to restart it), but not often. Maybe one in fifty suspend/resumes at most. | 00:04 |

| Dr_willis | i rarely use wirelesss. so most of my issues wwere with non-wirless stuff :) | 00:05 |
| PSiL0 | alonea: using 08.10 | 00:05 |
| alonea | PSiL0: but I think I might be confusing that with if I did not plug in my ethernet cable before startup...not internets for me | 00:05 |
| jpedroza | JontheEchidna: Ohhhhhhhh, new desktop picture! | 00:06 |
| jpedroza | JontheEchidna: Me likey the new look. Well done you! | 00:07 |
| alonea | PSiL0: yup. we installed it last night. now I kinda know whats causing it and it has to do with vmware. to get resolution to work, you have to set res to 1024x768, the login screen is smaller, but when he logs in, linux sets res to proper 1200x800. only thing that seems to not size correctly is the stupid bar on the bottom. | 00:07 |
| JontheEchidna | jpedroza: I'd thank the awesome KDE dudes for that there. :-) | 00:07 |
| jpedroza | Well, it is really slick, except that the buttons on the task manager are still grey | 00:08 |
| jpedroza | might be an issue with NVIDIA driver | 00:09 |
| alonea | PSiL0: if you set the res in vmware tools to 1200x800...you get super super TINY fonts and everything has shrunk dramatically... | 00:09 |

| === andreas__ is now known as andreas_ | ||
| syockit | I'm using 4.2, but not seeing any major differences apart from the new Activities | 01:13 |
| FoxBlitzz | Eh, I'm not ready to use KDE4 until it stops acting sluggish | 01:14 |
| Rudd-O | hey kde4 acts sluggish when there is no decent acceleration | 01:14 |
| FoxBlitzz | I did enable KWin's enhanced compositioning | 01:15 |
| Cancil | 8.10 looks nice :) | 01:15 |
| FoxBlitzz | But it still drew a lot of stuff in software | 01:15 |
| FoxBlitzz | So it was still really slow | 01:15 |
| syockit | Never been on 3.5, so can't comment. Acceleration might be the thing. | 01:15 |
| FoxBlitzz | And FPS was nowhere near what Compiz could schieve | 01:15 |
| FoxBlitzz | 3.5 is really fast. I really like it. | 01:15 |
| uffo | 3.5 is ancient stuff, 4.x is future | 01:17 |
| === asterix is now known as daniel-1989 | ||
| FoxBlitzz | Don't get me wrong, I'd like to use 4.x | 01:17 |

| FoxBlitzz | But I hate how it's sluggish and eats up all my CPU. | 01:17 |
| zicada | it does ? | 01:17 |
| FoxBlitzz | I'm not using it until they fix those issues. | 01:17 |
| zicada | its surprisingly fast on my box | 01:17 |
| zicada | 4.2RC that is | 01:17 |
| Cancil | would you recommend using a swap partition on a ssd? | 01:18 |
| Cancil | only 512MB ram | 01:18 |
| uffo | what do you people think is gnome if future or kde, i think kde just because of easyer and faster development speed and all structure is documented within kde4 and qt4 | 01:20 |
| uffo | is* | 01:20 |
| Cancil | uffo: depends on what you need | 01:21 |
| Cancil | for desktop users, kde is pretty fine | 01:21 |
| uffo | i do not look war kde vs gnome but technical adwancment | 01:21 |
| FoxBlitzz | KDE4 is being developed surprisingly fast | 01:21 |
| Cancil | uffo: id say it rather depends on your taste ;) | 01:22 |
| FoxBlitzz | Cancil: I think he's referring to development | 01:23 |
| Cancil | ok, in that case gnome is more conservative whereas kde has more new stuff :P | 01:24 |
| Cancil | i wouldnt say theres no future in gnome developement | 01:24 |
| uffo | is that true that gnome has harder to develop than kde4 because of C language, for example ubuntu uses lot of other programming languages to support GUI tools on desktop but kde4 is all same one system | 01:25 |
| Cancil | i heard that qt was pretty fine to cope with | 01:26 |
| FoxBlitzz | I believe most of KDE's bundled applications are written in C++ | 01:26 |
| Cancil | gtk uses a lot python | 01:26 |
| RoastedTiresX | sup guys | 01:26 |
| Cancil | i dont think its bad :) | 01:26 |
| RoastedTiresX | I have an Ubuntu question even though I'm in the Kubuntu chat room (got banned, long story)... I can't get my microphone to work in 8.10 64 bit Ubuntu... anybody have any ideas of what I could try? | 01:26 |
| Stathis` | i have ubuntu and kubuntu together .... may i update kde new version at Kubuntu and how ?? | 01:26 |
| Stathis` | in new KDE i mean in kubuntu | 01:27 |
| uffo | example ubuntu has that note program written in mono and lot of other tools in python but all should be one like kde4 c++ and because i think kde may become very standard in future | 01:27 |
| FoxBlitzz | Stathis`: You mean KDE3 to KDE4? | 01:27 |
| Stathis` | from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 is new version | 01:28 |
| Stathis` | something like that | 01:29 |
| FoxBlitzz | 4.2 has not officially released yet | 01:29 |
| FoxBlitzz | But you can try the neon-nightly beta | 01:29 |
| Stathis` | there is e new now | 01:29 |
| FoxBlitzz | KDE 4.2 is in RC now, which means it's not quite the final release but very close | 01:30 |
| Stathis` | try www.kde.org | 01:30 |
| Stathis` | Latest Announcements | 01:30 |
| Stathis` | Hotspot | 01:30 |
| Stathis` | KDE 4.1.4 and 4.2 Release Candidate Available Now | 01:30 |
| FoxBlitzz | Yes, I see | 01:30 |
| Cancil | uffo: kde wont go standard that fast | 01:30 |
| FoxBlitzz | A release candidate is not the final release, but is very close to it | 01:31 |
| Cancil | uffo: most people are looking for stable and conservative stuff | 01:31 |
| FoxBlitzz | You may just want to wait a week until they have the official public release of 4.2 | 01:31 |
| Stathis` | FoxBlitzz: and how i can update it ... i have kubuntu | 01:32 |
| FoxBlitzz | The 27th is the official release date IIRC | 01:32 |
| FoxBlitzz | Again, you can install the neon-nightly build if you want to, but it might be best to wait a week | 01:32 |

| syockit | What's the status one GNOME 3 then? | 01:35 |
| FoxBlitzz | I haven't checked, but I assume they will make KDE 4.2 an automatic upgrade when it comes out | 01:35 |
| FoxBlitzz | Because it's not like you'll lose settings or anything | 01:36 |
| FoxBlitzz | Someone correct me on this? | 01:36 |
| Cancil | syockit: nothing concrete yet | 01:36 |
| uffo | is that network manager is in kubuntu 9.04 http://osnews.com/img/20758/1.png | 01:37 |
| Cancil | uffo: this looks like kde 4.2^^ | 01:38 |
| FoxBlitzz | Hmm | 01:38 |
| Cancil | if theres an automatic update youll get it on ibex too | 01:38 |
| FoxBlitzz | Is that meter to the left of the battery indicator the KSysGuard applet? | 01:38 |
| syockit | uffo: Hey, I don't have anything like that! Maybe it's from a widget? | 01:40 |
| uffo | ohh it wont be in 4.2 http://vizzzion.org/?blogentry=839 BUT 4.3 includes this and Kubuntu 9.10 should include it | 01:40 |
| uffo | so 9.10 must lost old network manager | 01:40 |
| uffo | kde4 develops way faster than gnome, i am not programmer but i think because of c++ and full documentation and very good system infrastructure | 01:43 |
| * Stathis` byezzzz | 01:45 | |
| pascal | there s someone ? | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | 286 total someones.... | 01:47 |
| astromme | uffo: Yes, that's a network manager that's in playground atm. It will NOT be in 4.2 but some distrobutions might put it into their 4.2 packages anyways | 01:47 |
| Cancil | c++ is normally slower to develop^ | 01:47 |
| astromme | Cancil: not when compared to plain C | 01:47 |
| Dr_willis | I thought C++ was suppose to make it faster. :) | 01:48 |
| Cancil | python is faster :) | 01:48 |
| astromme | and when your options are KDE or Gnome (for complete desktop environments)... imho KDE with C++ wins out in eas of development | 01:48 |

| Dr_willis | from the grub shell, you could use its find command to see where the root files needed are at. | 02:49 |

| ubuntu | I'm installing kubuntu 8.10 and I'm partitioning the hard drive using the kubuntu installer. The default settings for the new partition are "type: logical" and "use as: Ext3 journaling file system." Is this okay or should I change it? | 05:26 |
| mefisto__ | if I install ubuntu-desktop, what does that do to the sound system under kde? will I have kde working with pulseaudio? or is it not that straightforward? | 05:27 |
| joh6nn | ubuntu: that setting is fine. are you installing linux for the first time? | 05:27 |
| ubuntu | yes | 05:28 |
| joh6nn | :) | 05:28 |
| joh6nn | are you doing this on a drive that has a windows install on it, as well? | 05:28 |
| ubuntu | yes | 05:29 |
| joh6nn | well, here's a suggestion, then: | 05:30 |
| joh6nn | i normally have my linux installs separated out into a couple of different partitions for reasons that aren't worth getting into just at the moment. you don't need to get that complicated yet. | 05:30 |
| joh6nn | but, what you might want to do is this: | 05:30 |
| joh6nn | make 2 partitions for your linux install: a 10 gig partition for the actual OS itself, and a second partition (how big is up to you, but i'd say at least 5 gigs) for your /home directory, which is roughly equivalent to C:\Documents And Settings in windows | 05:32 |

| joh6nn | hellraiser: right; windows and linux are totally different. you can't run windows programs on linux. | 05:35 |
| skreech | hellraiser: You need to install Wine. Ask in #winehq for help | 05:35 |
| p_quarles | joh6nn: yes you can | 05:35 |
| hellraiser | thanx | 05:36 |
| mefisto__ | wine can't do directx though, so lots of windows games won't work | 05:37 |
| mefisto__ | right? | 05:37 |
| joh6nn | p_quarles: wine's not enough of a solution to just be satisfied with. saying "yes you can" sort of gives the user false hope. | 05:37 |
| ubuntu | joh6nn: thank you for your help | 05:38 |
| joh6nn | ubuntu: no problem! good luck with the install, and i hope Kubuntu works out for you. :) | 05:38 |
| p_quarles | joh6nn: "you can't run windows programs on linux." <-- demonstrably false statement | 05:39 |
| joh6nn | ugh. ok, look. is it seriously worth being that pedantic about? is it really? | 05:39 |
| skreech | joh6nn: | 05:39 |
| skreech | I'd say yes | 05:39 |
| p_quarles | joh6nn: you can run Windows programs on Linux; end of story | 05:40 |

| p_quarles | mefisto__: other way aroudn | 05:46 |
| joh6nn | walter: short answer: no good reason. you may need to install a package called gtk-qt-engine | 05:46 |

| tweakedeh | Guessing no one want to help? | 05:47 |

| Tm_T | so it's not about graphics powers itself | 12:42 |
| noir_lord | the effect is weird, glxgears (which I know is hardly a good benchmark tool but useful to test acceleration is working) reports ~9000fps (which is about normal for an old 7600) but the desktop is just sluggish | 12:42 |

| nlbs | I've used userdel on it | 15:43 |
| astromme | nlbs: if your plasma breaks you should still be able to get a terminal up after you log in by doing alt-f2 and then entering konsole | 15:43 |
| nlbs | Now My username is neel | 15:43 |
| astromme | nlbs: Good, so do the chown command above | 15:43 |
| nlbs | That was teh first time I saw Plasma so I had no other way that get panicked | 15:44 |
| astromme | What's happening is your neel user id is 1001 while your nlbs was 1000. So, things are still owned by 1000 and you need to change them to 1001 | 15:44 |
| nlbs | But Whenever I connect some External HDD with ext File system I cant chown it | 15:44 |
| astromme | are you sudoing? | 15:44 |
| marius__ | I get: "You tried to open index.php, which is a php file". any solution? is it possible that I there is no module for php? | 15:45 |
| marius__ | in the browser | 15:45 |
| astromme | sudo chown -R neel /path/to/filesystem | 15:45 |
| nlbs | `neel` UID is 1002 and `neel` GID is 1000 | 15:45 |
| nlbs | neel:x:1002:1000::/home/neel:/bin/bash | 15:45 |
| astromme | Yes, but the UID of the filesystem is 1000 and the GROUP is root. it goes user:group | 15:45 |
| astromme | change that to neel:x:1000:1000::/home/neel:/bin/bash and you're good to go | 15:46 |
| astromme | you don't need the chown then | 15:46 |
| nlbs | But Its not a Solution | 15:46 |
| marius__ | any idea for me? | 15:46 |
| astromme | why not? | 15:46 |
| nlbs | I cant chown it everytime I connect | 15:46 |
| nlbs | I cant chown it everytime I connect | 15:46 |
| astromme | then change your /etc/password | 15:46 |
| nlbs | what Change ? | 15:46 |
| astromme | s/password/passwd | 15:46 |
| astromme | see my above comment. change youor UID to 1000 | 15:47 |
| nlbs | I tried but If I do that kde fails to Start | 15:47 |
| astromme | nlbs: yes because your home directory is still on UID 1002 | 15:47 |
| astromme | so you need to chmod something | 15:47 |
| astromme | you can either do it to /home or to /media/mydrive | 15:48 |
| techbw | hi all | 15:48 |
| nlbs | Thanks | 15:48 |
| nlbs | You got teh point | 15:48 |
| nlbs | the** | 15:48 |
| astromme | techbw: hi | 15:48 |
| nlbs | Is there any other possibility of errors ? | 15:48 |
| === floown_ is now known as floown | ||
| astromme | nlbs: only if you chown'd something outside of your /home | 15:48 |
| nlbs | There is nothing like taht | 15:49 |
| techbw | what program can I use to make a full backup of my partitions, have everything the way I like and I want to save it, so that while playing I don't mess things up | 15:49 |
| techbw | I just want to learn without messing things up | 15:49 |
| nlbs | Ok I'll give it a try | 15:49 |
| nlbs | <techbw>: I donno such a software but I strongly believe that such software exists | 15:49 |
| nlbs | however I would do something like this | 15:50 |
| nlbs | dd if=/dev/sdaN of=sdaN.bak | 15:50 |
| techbw | I used to use ghost on windows, I have downloaded ghost4linux, but it does not look simple as ghost for windows | 15:50 |
| nlbs | and store sdaN.bak as backup Files | 15:50 |
| dueyfinster | Anyone have any recommendations for (all keys usueable) multi-media keyboard and mouse combo? | 15:50 |
| nlbs | and do the same on all drives | 15:50 |
| techbw | I have read alot about dd but I am not confident that my knowlege to restore etc...would be sufficient | 15:51 |
| nlbs | and latter dd if=sdaN.bak of=/dev/sdaN | 15:51 |
| astromme | techbw: the dd *should* work however if you're screwing with partitions be careful | 15:51 |
| astromme | if you change /etc/fstab it's better to copy the whole drive with if=/dev/sda | 15:51 |
| techbw | I need somthing that can be done via live cd, or should I ask would apt2cd backup everything that I have installed, and configured | 15:51 |
| astromme | err, not fstab | 15:51 |
| astromme | with "sudo fdisk" if you do anything to your partitions | 15:52 |
| nlbs | Ya astromme is right it would be even easy too just copy the whole hard disk | 15:52 |
| nlbs | you dont even need to reinstall your OS | 15:52 |
| nlbs | even your mbr is backed Up | 15:52 |
| techbw | i would need to re-install grub wouldn't I | 15:53 |
| techbw | if it really goes wrong | 15:53 |
| astromme | techbw: not if you dd the entire drive | 15:53 |
| astromme | if you dd a single partition, yes, you would | 15:53 |
| astromme | but /dev/sda includes the MBR | 15:54 |
| techbw | so dd, basically is a ghost like program...copying the entire disk to a single file? | 15:54 |
| khakane | not really but sure | 15:54 |
| astromme | dd is a blockwise copy | 15:54 |
| nlbs | dd is a programm that does low level read/write | 15:54 |
| nlbs | and yes You can view your backups without restoring it from a live Disk | 15:54 |
| nlbs | just do | 15:54 |
| techbw | but the ending file would be the same size as the hard drive, not true, I don't want to backup free space ;-) | 15:55 |
| nlbs | mount -o loop /tmp/mountPoint /path/to/sdaN.bak | 15:55 |
| nlbs | Hey I forgot to ask one thing | 15:55 |
| techbw | how does one send a message like astrome sent me, showing my name: and message in red | 15:56 |
| nlbs | If I change my UID to 1000 then how would I chmod $HOME ?? chown 1000 $HOME ?? | 15:56 |
| nlbs | am I right ? | 15:56 |

| jpedroza | Good morning. I just ran an update for the Jaunty (development branch) and it removed the nvidia-glx-180 package. I restored that package with sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180, which proceeded to remove my X installation. Now when I try and remove the nvidia-glx-180 package, I get an error that it can't find usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libGLcore.so | 17:30 |
| jpedroza | I am guessing it can't find it because it just removed it | 17:32 |
| jpedroza | I have tried installing xorg, but it tries to remove the nvidia driver as well. | 17:32 |
| jpedroza | And of course fails on that missing file error. | 17:32 |

| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 18:43 |
| raidenovich | how can i mount a samba network folder? | 18:43 |
| wizardslovak | i only need mysql and php | 18:43 |
| xp-killer | raidenovich: how do i make the ./pms.sh and run it? i extract to hold folder already | 18:43 |
| raidenovich | sudo mount -t smbfs (smb://xxxxxxxxx) (mountpoint?) | 18:43 |
| jpedroza | raidenovich: you can use the mount command like this: mount -t cifs //ServerName/Share /mountpoint | 18:44 |
| jpedroza | raidenovich: cifs is the new fs type | 18:44 |
| raidenovich | thank you, is it then always mounted when i start the computer? | 18:44 |
| raidenovich | xp-killer: sudo chmod 777 ./pms.sh | 18:44 |
| raidenovich | no withouth ./ sorry | 18:45 |
| raidenovich | then you run it with ./pms.sh | 18:45 |
| jpedroza | raidenovich: No, to mount on boot you need to modify /etc/fstab as root and add in those parameters. You will also want to add username and password params in fstab or it will prompt you for them on boot | 18:46 |
| xp-killer | raidenovich: in konsole i hav to typê " sudo chmod 777 ./pms.sh"? | 18:46 |
| raidenovich | jpedroza: also when i have guest = ok? | 18:46 |
| raidenovich | xp-killer: you type in sudo chmod 777 PMS.sh in the folder where it is located | 18:46 |
| raidenovich | then you run it with ./PMS.sh | 18:46 |
| jpedroza | raidenovich: In that case, no. | 18:47 |
| wizardslovak | lol i am getting error " couldnt find package mysql" | 18:47 |
| raidenovich | okey i try mounting now | 18:47 |

| raidenovich | okay, just type in sudo chmod 777 PMS.sh to make the file executable | 18:51 |
| raidenovich | you have to be in the folder where the file is located | 18:51 |
| xp-killer | just open any console and write that? | 18:51 |
| raidenovich | yes, but you have to be in the right folder | 18:51 |

| ActionParsnip | xp-killer: then run it with ./<script name here> | 18:57 |
| raidenovich | xp-killer: did you extract it correctly? | 18:57 |
| ActionParsnip | xp-killer: make sure you are in the same folder as the file | 18:57 |
| raidenovich | you have to browse to the folder where pms.sh is located | 18:57 |

| raidenovich | yeah i got that one, but where do i add "sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.3/laptop /home/raiden/Server/" | 19:03 |
| jpedroza | raidenovich: Just add a line that says //servernameorip/Share Mountpoint cifs defaults 0,0 | 19:04 |
| ActionParsnip | roozbehonline: any more info would be great | 19:05 |

| raidenovich | now type in | 19:07 |
| raidenovich | sudo chmod +x PMS.sh | 19:07 |
| jpedroza | gstnet: Some of the kio slaves are not functional under kde4 | 19:07 |
| raidenovich | why is 777 overkill ActionParsnip | 19:08 |
| jpedroza | wizardslovak: mysql is pretty much the same on any POSIX platform, any tutorial should work | 19:08 |
| xp-killer | raidenovich: nothing happen after it ask me for me passw | 19:08 |
| raidenovich | yes, thats ok | 19:08 |
| gstnet | jpedroza: fish works fine in kde4 apps, but not in quanta (kde3) app. I am trying to figure out what needs to be fixed there | 19:08 |
| raidenovich | now | 19:08 |
| ActionParsnip | raidenovich: it gives rwx to everyone on the system | 19:08 |
| raidenovich | type in ./PMS.sh | 19:08 |
| raidenovich | well its just a plain program? : / | 19:08 |
| wizardslovak | only think i want is to make mysql server, php and use vbulletin | 19:08 |
| jpedroza | gstnet: Quanta needs to be fixed. The kioslaves for fish, sftp, etc are not available in KDE4 | 19:09 |
| ActionParsnip | raidenovich: which isnt needed as it'll only be needed by the owner | 19:09 |
| jpedroza | gstnet: For now there is no fix, other than to use sshfs or regular ftp, both of which work | 19:09 |
| xp-killer | raidenovich: ok it open a big page ps3 media | 19:09 |
| raidenovich | ;) | 19:09 |

| gstnet | jpedroza: i am new to kubuntu and so far i love it, but i really miss fish from quanta | 19:10 |
| gstnet | jpedroza: adn just to piss me off fish works in konquerer | 19:10 |
| jpedroza | gstnet: There aren't many developers on Quanta 4 right now, I am going to start working with them to help. | 19:10 |
| gstnet | jpedroza: my understanding was that quanta will die | 19:11 |
| ActionParsnip | jim88: could send the form as a blank form in an email which can be edtted when they hit reply | 19:11 |
| gstnet | jpedroza: well not really die, but move to be kdevelop plugin | 19:11 |
| jpedroza | jim88: That isn't really a linux question, but rather a scripting question. check in #php, #perl, or #javascript | 19:11 |
| jpedroza | gstnet: The editor is becoming kdevelop, instead of Kate, but other than that, it should stay the same | 19:11 |
| raidenovich | can you see it in the XMB xp-killer? | 19:11 |

| BluesKaj | roozbehonline , make sure you have your third party repos in adept enabled as well. | 19:35 |
| BluesKaj | roozbehonline , then do a sudo apt-get update in the terminal | 19:37 |

| matmat07 | Is there a way I could still isntall it with wubi? | 20:49 |
| matmat07 | I would like to try it before playing with partition | 20:49 |
| bukharin | matmat07: i'm not sure, but i think that the alternate cd does not come with wubi | 20:50 |
| matmat07 | I know, I got Wubi after, thinking it could install with the file on the cd | 20:50 |
| syockit | It does not come with wubi, but I think wubi can be configured to use it | 20:50 |
| syockit | Okay, I've checked https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide and it says no | 20:51 |
| syockit | But wait don't give up yet. I remember there's a way... | 20:51 |
| bukharin | well, if the alternate also functions a live cd (i dont know), you could boot into that, and download a new desktop iso. or even more, try to build one with wubi, but i don't think that woud be feasible. | 20:52 |

I noticed that normally, when you click the main package-file, a lot of other files are installed with it, but with me by example the language-kde isn't installed (and other also)... but I do not know wich files are needed, can someone help me? | 23:15 |
| zendo | urmel291: well it still points to "/usr/bin/xfce4-session" | 23:15 |
| urmel291 | zendo: you can use the "update-alternatives" command to change the link | 23:16 |
| zendo | urmel291: can you please tell me how? | 23:16 |
| zendo | urmel291: "update-alternatives --conf x-session-manager" ? | 23:17 |
| ActionParsnip | zendo: doesnt that need sudo? | 23:17 |
| urmel291 | zendo: "sudo update-alternatives --config x-session-manager" | 23:17 |
| urmel291 | yes, it needs sudo | 23:17 |
| zendo | urmel291: thanks.I also reconfigured "x-window-manager" bacl to kwin | 23:19 |
| zendo | urmel291: thanks a lot | 23:19 |
| urmel291 | zendo: ur welcome | 23:19 |

| kixx | I just tried to install a Brother printer driver with dpkg, which apparently borked because of a missing lpr dependency. Is lpr packaged with kubuntu put of the box? | 23:45 |

| robinr | kixx: cups-bsd contains an lpr command | 23:55 |
| robinr | and yes it it | 23:55 |
| robinr | is | 23:55 |
| kixx | ahh.. maybe that's the problem | 23:56 |
| kixx | well, now I can't remove the driver package i installed because: The package fax4750elpr needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it | 23:57 |
| faileas | hmm, i'm trying to work out something. lets say i have two apps i want accessable over the same port, but on different hostnames, say two irc servers- is there any way to configure a firewall to say forward foo.bar.com:6667 to port 7000 and bar.bar.com:6667 to port 6667 for example? | 23:57 |
| kixx | is there a way to use dpkg to remove this package and start over? | 23:57 |
