[00:00] HenryHeron: there are different versions of kde at the moment [00:01] HenryHeron: kde 3.5 is the most stable but oldest, kde 4.1 is the kubuntu intrepid default, kde 4.2 is only released in a few days, but the RC is already very usable === andre is now known as Guest40722 [00:01] HenryHeron: depending on which version you choose, the packages/sources are different [00:01] fliegenderfrosch It will work w/ 8.10? [00:02] HenryHeron: yes, i’m using 8.10 with kde 4.2 release candidate [00:02] and it works fine [00:03] fliegenderfrosch so I can use either synaptic package manager or apt-get (terminal) what do I look for (for 4.2)? [00:03] HenryHeron: in general, you have to choose between the 3.5 and the 4.x series. 3.5 is more mature, but 4.x is where all the new development happens and it is already very usable [00:03] kDE 4.2 RC 1: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2-rc1 [00:03] yes, but for the 4.2 RC you have to add new sources [00:04] Dr_willis: thx, that’s what i was about to post :) [00:04] fliegenderfrosch Do I hear a nother alternative, i.e., build from source? [00:05] HenryHeron: you could build it from source as well, but the packages are definitely the most comfortable solution [00:05] HenryHeron: plus you will probably get an upgrade to 4.2 final automatically [00:06] fliegenderfrosch I agree... sight unseen. The instructions would be on the link Dr_willis mentioned? [00:06] HenryHeron: but remember that 4.2 isn’t officially supported by the kubuntu team [00:06] HenryHeron: exactly [00:07] HenryHeron: still I find 4.2 to be more usable than the official 4.1 packages [00:07] fliegenderfrosch Apparently ubuntu intrepid isn [00:07] fliegenderfrosch either... I'm having a hard time getting any help. [00:08] HenryHeron: you mean the gnome version? I’m actually quite happy with it (on my laptop), but that’s probably different for everyone [00:09] fliegenderfrosch Yes, exactly. [00:10] HenryHeron: if your problems are related to the kernel or drivers, changing from gnome to kde won’t help however [00:10] fliegenderfrosch It may be something I did, as I built a number of rather complex programs... then the desktop went fluey... (high tech term)... [00:11] * Dr_willis is confused... [00:11] but im also holding the grandson.. so im distracted.. :P [00:11] fliegenderfrosch Ok, I'll go check out the recommended web site now, thanks all! [00:13] HenryHeron: np [00:13] fliegenderfrosch One last note as I saw your last message... getting the tools/utilities to understand what is going wrong seems a real problem in Linux? No? What to do? [00:14] HenryHeron: which tools/utilities do you mean? [00:15] fliegenderfrosch I'm thinking of trying to be able to understand how to tell if the problem/s are related as you suggest, kernel or driver. [00:24] Am I the only one here? [00:25] yes [00:25] wow [00:25] da: do you feel lonely now? [00:26] no, I got my wife in the other room watching TV. [00:26] oh ! you are the one then [00:27] I don/t know. [00:29] is anyone having a problem where clicking a link in a Qt program (qtconfig-qt4) doesn't open it? === gnuton is now known as Gnut[OFF] [00:32] hagabaka , did you try it in the Konsole ? [00:33] yeah, i get an output like http://pastebin.com/f202e88dc [00:33] none of the URLs in the app respond [00:34] for you too? [00:35] qtconfig-qt4 in the terminal opens Qt but the urls listed and highlighted don't open [00:35] do you get that output too? [00:37] yes Qt configuration GUI opened [00:38] I'm having two problems with the Network manager:1. I can't have more than one set to autoconnect, and 2. It won't autoconnect to a network with SSID broadcast off. (This is in 8.10, and neither of these were problems in 8.04) [00:38] Anyone have any clue here, or should I ask on the forums [00:39] hagabaka , I'm not familiar with it , so i didn't fool with it [00:39] did you try the links in "About Qt" dialog? [00:40] or the "phonon" tab? [00:40] my kde appears to not be monitoring keyboard input to keep the screensaver turned off. that is, when i do not use the mouse for N minutes the screensaver comes on even as I am in the middle of typing. how do i fix that? [00:41] hagabaka , yes none respond [00:42] ok, thanks [00:44] sparr , system settings/country region and language/keyboard layout/enable keyboard layout/ keyboard model ..choose your KB from thelist if it's there === maite is now known as maitetxu56 [00:49] BlueEagle: its just a normal 104 key keyboard, already selected === Axis- is now known as AxisAFK === quassel59 is now known as astromme [01:02] heya [01:03] hi ppl, can anyone here tell me how to change the firewall settings so that Konvresation can use ident ? [01:03] i just managed to install latex-suite (for vi) twice, now i get the following error "command Error detected while processing /var/lib/vim/addons/plugin/remoteOpen.vim: line 37:E174: Command already exists: add ! to replace it [01:03] how can I remove the error without losing all my latexsuite settings? [01:09] kaddi, you installed that how exactly? [01:10] \join guitar [01:10] \join [01:10] try a /join === Raylz1 is now known as Raylz [01:12] via aptitude... [01:12] i was scrolling through the installed/not installed packages and latex-suite had a "c" in front of it, instead of the expected "i". [01:13] so, because I was to lazy to check what I was doing, I selected it for installation [01:13] only to realise afterwards that I actually already installed it way back in october [01:14] (this was totally my bad, I know... but it would be nice if you helped me clean up the mess anyways ;) ) [01:17] what probably happened, is that I installed latex-suite via the vim-addonmanager in october and which is why aptitude didn't recognize it as an isntalled package === Taladan_ is now known as Taladan [01:18] ahh... so vim-addonmanager confused the apt-get stuff eh [01:18] * Dr_willis has no idea what the vim-addonmanager does. :) [01:18] cant recall ever ysing that part of vim. [01:19] it installs addons ;) [01:19] no, I was having trouble with the latex-suite [01:19] there's a bug where the functions don't get mapped correctly, when installing latexsuite via aptitude [01:19] installing it with the addonmanager somehow solves the problem [01:20] could remove the thing both ways.. and then reinstall it the way you want I guess. [01:20] ive not used LaTeX since college. :) [01:20] hehe, im still in college, so ill have to use it for a while ;) [01:21] the problem ist, that I havent really touched this pc in quite a while, so Im not sure where all the configurations are saved [01:22] and I would be really annoyed if i lost the settings... which is why i dont really want to uninstall latexsuite [01:22] If they are system settings instaleld by a package. and not customized by you.. then reinstalling them via the package manager or whatever.. should restore them, [01:22] Its only customized things that id be worrying about [01:22] no, they are customized by me [01:23] latexsuite translates shortcuts into valid latex-code... something like turinung #/ into \frac{<++>} {<++>}<++> [01:24] and I did set a lot of such shortcuts [01:24] :( [01:25] but maybe this is the price i'll have to pay for being stupid :( [01:27] hello [01:28] anybody have kubuntu 8.10 running on a IBM T41 laptop? [01:28] I'm having trouble connecting to wireless access point.. any ideas? [01:29] kaddi, yea the package manager i think will notice customized files and not overwrite them [01:30] but he will delete them, if i uninstall the package? [01:30] I dont think so.. but not sure.. [01:30] I wouldent think it would.. since it noticed the changed and dident install over them. [01:31] kubuntu-user: I’ve got ubuntu 8.10 on it (and sometimes use the kde desktop as well), but I don’t have problems with wireless [01:32] so i just need to have faith and uninstall the package? :D [01:33] fliegenderfrosch-I installed it fresh few days ago and it was working fine until last night.. [01:33] do you know how to see the log? [01:33] from knetworkmanager I can see the wireless networks available.. [01:33] but I can't seem to connect to a simple unsecured network.. [01:34] kaddi, well if the sytem still works now.. you may want to jkust leave it alone.. or are you saying the vi-latex thing no longer works? [01:35] no its working, it's just throwing a lot of messages and i have to confirm 2 error messages before i can actually open vi [01:35] which, in the long term, is rather annoying [01:36] Trying to install Kubuntu 8.04 or 8.10. I have CDs for both. Either way, it gets to Step 3 of 6, where I pick a keyboard. Then it does Scanning for Disks and Checking Filesystems. Then it juststops doing anything. The program responds to clicks. I can Cancel it. But no install and no CD or HDD access. Any ideas? [01:37] kaddi, ya could look at /var/lib/vim/addons/plugin/remoteOpen.vim: line 37:E174: Command already exists: add ! to replace it [01:37] and see whats on like 37 :) [01:37] sounds like its including somthing thats allready been included [01:37] i'll just go for it.. I made a backup of .vim and hope that all the important files wil be in there :) [01:37] BentFrank: I've had this issue before. Just leave the system un-interrupted. Eventually it will bring up 4-6. Probably it is takign longer time to figure out file system. [01:38] it took me around 15-20 mins to go from 3-6 to 4-6 dialog... [01:38] System is Athlon 1800, 500 MB RAM, one 20GB HDD. Motherboard is M7VIW. [01:38] nothing i'd understand, but maybe you can make something out of it: [01:39] 37 com -nargs=1 RemoteOpen :call RemoteOpen('') [01:39] Kubuntu-user: How long is eventually? It's been 30 minutes. [01:39] what does the E174 mean? [01:40] I think I waited around same time.. [01:40] Maybe the HDD is going. There is an old Windows 3000 system on it now and it was having troubles toward the end. [01:40] er 2000 [01:40] may be you can leave it some more time .. [01:41] I think I'll try swappign the drive and see. If that doesnt work i'll let the install run overnight. [01:42] Thanks, kubuntu-user [01:42] no worries. [01:43] does anybody know how to see knetworkmanager logs? I'm trying to see why my T41 is not connecting to WAP.. [01:45] wireless can be such a pain. :( [01:45] tell me about it.. [01:45] either it works for me.. or its totally unuseable. :) but now a days on my 3 wireelss machines.. it all works. [01:47] kubuntu-user: run it from the terminal [01:48] I tried it.. it prints a whole bunch of messages.. [01:48] that's what you're after no? ;) [01:49] uninstalling worked.. :) everything seems to be as it used to be and my settings are still there \o [01:49] thanks :) [01:49] but it doesn't print anything destriptive.. [01:49] @dr_willis :) [01:49] I'll look more in detail.. [01:49] thanks. I have to leave now.. I'll try loggin in later.. [01:51] kaddi, isent the pacage manageing system amazing! :) [01:52] !info menu [01:52] menu (source: menu): generates programs menu for all menu-aware applications. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.40ubuntu1 (intrepid), package size 424 kB, installed size 1924 kB [01:52] dr_willis : it definitely is. :) never would have thought that it would keep my previous settings [01:52] kaddi, its gnu-riffic! [01:52] :D [01:53] (wrt kde 4.0) instead of KDEstrophic? === jamie is now known as jatos [01:59] hey i'm trying to install kubuntu on the latest version of parallels, and it installs fine but upon trying to log in, it logs in then returns to the gui login screen...what's goin on here? [02:02] I get a glimpse of the desktop which looks kinda screwed up then it goes back to the login screen [02:05] i'd guess that your x-server is doing a runner.. try typing ctrl-alt-f1 when you get to the login screen and see if you can log in in the command line [02:05] yeah it logs in at the command line [02:05] what happens if you try starting kdm from the commandline? [02:05] how do I do that? [02:06] Qb_Master: /etc/init.d/kdm start [02:06] sudo may be needed [02:06] :) [02:06] "Starting K Display manager: kdm already running" [02:07] /etc/init.d/kdm stop or start, or restart :) [02:08] k that brought me back to the gui login screen, let's see what happens this time [02:08] kaddi, Dr_willis: it seems that his kdm and xserver are starting fine, but kde itself doesn’t [02:09] yeah it goes through the loading process again, I see the desktop which looks screwed up and it goes back to login again [02:10] h/o i'll try to get a screenshot [02:12] http://img105.imageshack.us/img105/1160/kubuntuparallelsglitchymi2.jpg [02:12] Qb_Master: I guess there are no old KDE configs which could cause tit to fail.... [02:12] that's what the desktop looks like upon loading, for like 3 seconds before it returns to login [02:12] hmm [02:13] Qb_Master: you could try upgrading to kde 4.2 RC and look if the problem still exists [02:15] hm lemme look into it [02:15] how do I do that? xD [02:15] sorry I'm fairly noobish in linux, I've only dabbled with it [02:16] I expect to use it more now that I have it running in a virtual desktop :) [02:17] it might be a problem with parallels...I might try VMWare next [02:18] Qb_Master: you could also try virtualbox [02:19] k thx I didn't know of that one :) [02:19] is amarok 2 going in official repository? === slyuk is now known as SlyZZZ === [mors]l is now known as [mors] [02:23] k trying virtualbox [02:23] parallels might just be a POS [02:23] :p [02:23] <[mors]> I folks [02:23] <[mors]> **hi [02:24] ey [02:25] <[mors]> will kde4.2 ever make it to intreid repos ?

[02:27] i hate that part about ppa repositories [02:28] it won't upgrade anything that doesn't need upgraded for KDE 4.2 to work [02:29] <[mors]> how do you compare koffice against open office ? [02:33] hm interesting, the install process looks different in virtualbox than it did in parallels [02:34] o wait nvm [02:35] lol yay 3rd time trying to install [02:36] <[mors]> foilks, why did canonical choose gnome for their main distro ? [02:36] <[mors]> kubuntu feels like a 2nd class citizen.... :/ [02:37] <[mors]> but I prefer kde by leaps and bounds [02:37] * fidji probablement en train de jouer au Go [02:38] someone should make a distro of linux that runs itself in its own virtual desktop software that can be installed and run directly from windows or other OSes [02:40] I always liked the idea of using linux but being able to switch to windows (for gaming and the like) without rebooting :D === |GuS| is now known as [GuS] [02:46] How to find out about system i am runing in termanel [02:53] hm, why does the installer take forever to 'scan the mirror'?

[04:34] Oh you want to use it as a microphone [04:35] yes [04:35] so you can walk in the house and speak ! [04:36] Hey.

So would you like to help package it? [05:55] Well I've never built a multi-package deb and can't find any good tutorials on it [05:55] the Debian New Maintainers guide is lacking there [05:56] The #kubuntu-devel room is a good guide :) [05:56] As I said basically you need Willingness and either a CPU that warms up or a net connection [05:57] * Bsims nods I may wander over there... Idealy I'd turn a script loose on it and it craps out a folder of debs [05:57] * DaSkreech nods. Yes sir [05:57] * Bsims grins willing, single core machine but my connection is fast and my storage exceeds a TB [05:57] Great :_ [05:57] :_) [05:58] * Bsims can't beleve how cheap drives are now [05:58] I bought a 1TB drive for less than 150 [05:58] Yeah Crazy huh?

I'd bring a modern beastly box running Linux with sources and drop it off at UC Berkley in the 70's [06:02] it will be fun to be there when CPUs won't be able to be miniaturized any more [06:02] and another one would be handed to a hippie named Stallman [06:02] on the east coast [06:03] damn i should have upgraded the release before i upgraded the packages [06:03] I'd walk into a Godzilla movie and replace it with Jurassic Park if I had a tardis [06:04] * Bsims grins nah DaSkreech imagine Stallman or esr with a 2009 current level laptop in the 70's [06:04] Bsims: Richard would probably hurd the computers together [06:04] and sources for the OS and as much history of processor design as could fit [06:05] * Bsims grins and the same given to the BSD folks [06:05] DaSkreech: Heh wine is past 1.0 Duke nukem and HURD will have to follow [06:06] do you think Linux will succeed in growing up to 50% (or more) of OSs use, one day ?

After upgrading to intrepid, the arrow keys on my keyboard as well as insert, delete etc no longer work. If I open up a text login these seem to function okay. any pointers? [11:18] [EGC-i]ThinIce: check keyboard settings in systemsettings [11:18] [EGC-i]ThinIce: if its correct, set it to something else, then back [11:27] <[EGC-i]ThinIce> ActionParsnip, hrm doesn't seem to be doing any good, I'm trying to use UK layout and currently generic 104-key PC is selected, not sure if thats right, my actual keyboard model isn't listed there but I've never had problems in the past [11:37] [EGC-i]ThinIce: check xorg.conf to see what it says about keyboard [11:41] <[EGC-i]ThinIce> ActionParsnip, hrm has pc104 and gb in there as well, although looking at an old backup file in the X11 directory it seems to be listed as pc105. Setting that in kde doesn't make any difference but if you think its worth it might be worth setting it in the file and restarting x? [11:42] [EGC-i]ThinIce: could be a fix, give it a go, just make sure you can rollback if you break stuff [11:43] <[EGC-i]ThinIce> yeah I'll make a copy before editing it [11:45] [EGC-i]ThinIce: good lad, best way [11:45] [EGC-i]ThinIce: very few people do, then moan when they bork their system [11:46] <[EGC-i]ThinIce> and then come and shout in here I bet ;) === george2002 is now known as Guest9956 [11:59] [EGC-i]ThinIce: then say Ubuntu sucks === jp is now known as Guest41546 === sparklingshrew is now known as shinygerbil [12:04] <[EGC-i]ThinIce> ActionParsnip, no luck :| weirdly enough though the delete key works on the login screen of kdm, just not once you're logged in [12:05] hmmm [12:08] do the keys generate events in xev? [12:09] <[EGC-i]ThinIce> yeah they do. was just typing in cat actually with them, in a konsole del comes out as ^@ (I'm not sure of my character codes but that doesn't look right) [12:09] when I run Armagetron on ubantu 8.1 I get garbbled text. Any ideas why & how to fix? [12:11] [EGC-i]ThinIce: does it type ok in kate etc? [12:12] <[EGC-i]ThinIce> yeah in the text only login it comes out as something completely different (which I presume is correct). In kate most of the keyboard works okay, but certain things don't such as insert, delete, arrow keys as with the rest of kde === robert__ is now known as robertknight [12:20] ciao [12:20] !list [12:20] Hi!
