| ghostcube | Papfox, you mean some garbaged new created windows ? | 00:00 |

| ghostcube | and an frozen log out image ? | 00:00 |
| ghostcube | bug 254468 | 00:01 |
| ghostcube | oO | 00:02 |
| Papfox | Currently running Kdebase 4.1.4ununtu1~intrepid2. Garbage in newly created windows for a couple of seconds is a symptom - not sure if it was relevant. Not getting frozen logout image. | 00:03 |
| ghostcube | nvidia 180x ? | 00:04 |
| ghostcube | but doesnt matter this is a problem inside kubuntu and fc10 | 00:04 |
| ghostcube | moment | 00:04 |
| Papfox | The biggest pain is that if I have SecondLife running and I bring up Firefox over it to look something up scrolling renders the scrolled portion of th epage unreadable. | 00:04 |
| marcel | library libncurses.so.5 exist, how can i find documentation about it ? | 00:05 |

| walbert | Hey folks. I'm doing some work on a project that uses GTK under Kubuntu, and I'd like to be able to change my gtk themes around. I installed gtk-engine-* and gtk-theme-switch2, but i still only get the default options of Qt4 and Raleigh. What am I doing wrong? | 00:06 |
| Papfox | That bug looks liek one of the problems but it's the scrolling corruption that is driving em mad. | 00:07 |
| Papfox | Should I try nvidia 180? | 00:07 |
| Papfox | I can see it in Synaptic but not in the Hardware Drivers tool. | 00:08 |
| ghostcube | Papfox, wouldnt help but afaik this should get into SRU as ScottK told in the bug report | 00:10 |
| ghostcube | stable release upgrade | 00:10 |
| dsnaike | Papfox i had same problem upgraded to kde4.2 it worked for me | 00:11 |
| Papfox | Is 4.2 in one of the repos? If so which one? | 00:12 |
| jammen33 | deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu intrepid main | 00:12 |
| jammen33 | i think | 00:12 |
| dsnaike | Papfox www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2-rc1 will give u whats needed | 00:13 |
| ghostcube | in 2 days the final comes out | 00:13 |
| ghostcube | maybe wait this two days :) | 00:13 |
| Papfox | Thanks guys. I'll do that. WHen is it due to go mainstream? | 00:14 |
| jammen33 | teh 28thish ithink | 00:16 |
| Papfox | Is that when it will find its way into the standard repos (I have backports and proposed turned on) | 00:19 |
| jammen33 | ithink it wont be relised on intrepid | 00:19 |
| jammen33 | u'll have to use the ppa | 00:19 |
| jammen33 | or go to jaunty | 00:20 |
| Papfox | Thanks. The other option would be to give KDE4 up as a bad job. Is it possible to go back to KDE3 on Intrepid? | 00:21 |
| jammen33 | no | 00:21 |
| jammen33 | it was a kde4 only | 00:21 |
| jammen33 | you would have to go back to 8.04 | 00:21 |
| ghostcube | Papfox, hmm kde 4.2 will be fine | 00:21 |
| ghostcube | more options | 00:21 |
| jammen33 | im using kde4.2 now and it works great | 00:22 |
| ghostcube | and the video problem is not kde related | 00:22 |
| Papfox | Do you know what it is if it's not KDE? | 00:22 |
| ghostcube | an error in xorg | 00:23 |
| ghostcube | but the nvidia 180 drivers from repo would be better too for your card | 00:23 |
| ghostcube | can anyone confirm that sorting the items in kde 4.x in k-menu classic isnt working | 00:24 |
| ghostcube | it doesnt take care of the menu editor ? | 00:24 |
| Papfox | Thanks :) Ghostcube, do you know if a bug has been filed against this in xorg? | 00:25 |

| dsnaike | Papfox what decorator is in use kwib,compiz is good gtk will cause your problems to | 00:25 |
| Papfox | Thanks | 00:26 |
| Papfox | @dsnaike, I'm not sure what you mean. What is a decorator and how do I find out? | 00:28 |
| BattleStarJesus | I'm running Kubuntu with the Nvidia driver (version 177.82), I have using Compiz-Fusion and Emerald. When I open video media with any media player it plays, but when I try to enable full-screen or try to play the next video in a playlist, the player shuts down. What is causing this to happen and how do I resolve it? | 00:29 |
| dsnaike | is compiz installed | 00:29 |
| Papfox | Loads of compiz packages installed. | 00:30 |
| dsnaike | fusion icon to | 00:31 |
| marcel | i find ncurses docu on google instead of man -k ncurses , yeah..., :) | 00:31 |
| Papfox | (Is that what is trapping CTRL-ALT-SHIFT and the arrows in Gnome? It's interfering with Secondlife) | 00:31 |
| Papfox | I can't see any icons in the bar that say they are compiz | 00:32 |
| dsnaike | I use compiz fusion icon to load kwin or compiz decorator gtk causes video problems | 00:32 |
| === Guest56275 is now known as mohammad | ||
| === mohammad is now known as Guest42779 | ||
| dsnaike | use synaptic or adept to install fusion icon easy way to control everything | 00:33 |
| === Guest42779 is now known as Guest42775 | ||
| Papfox | Is that the compiz-kde package? | 00:35 |
| dsnaike | yes | 00:35 |
| dsnaike | but go thru the list and select what you need | 00:36 |
| Papfox | Will that cause the CTRL_ALT_SHIFT_arrows to be trapped like in Gnome? | 00:38 |
| dsnaike | if what will cause it | 00:39 |
| Papfox | Installing compiz on KDE? SOmething is trapping that key combo in Gnome (thought it might be compiz) to switch workspaces. It's a killer for Secondlife as that is one of the key combos that moves the camera | 00:41 |
| dsnaike | use ctrl-alt-mousebutton1 | 00:42 |

| ghostcube | Papfox, sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-kde compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra emerald librsvg2-common | 00:44 |
| ghostcube | if anything is missing :) | 00:44 |

| ghostcube | hmm not the best way for startup only for comtroööing | 00:46 |
| ghostcube | controlling | 00:46 |
| dsnaike | yes in compiz settings manager | 00:46 |
| Papfox | ALT-arrows, CTRL-ALT-arrows and CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-arrows are the camera control functions and if you use SL you use them all the time. | 00:47 |
| === Guest28835 is now known as mohammad | ||

| Kuaera | Hello; I was wondering if there was any way of getting alternate icons for layouts in the KDE Keyboard Layout Switcher, as US Qwerty and US Dvorak look the same | 01:06 |
| etfb | Should I be worried that my dmesg dump includes the line "apm: BIOS not found"? | 01:07 |
| byteme_ | I have a friend that wants to try kubuntu | 01:12 |
| byteme_ | and I am hes. to give him kde 4.1.1 as in my opinion it harder to use than 3.5 | 01:13 |
| byteme_ | 4.1 to me is overly complex for a simple operation that would be less clicks in 3.5 | 01:14 |
| byteme_ | am I thinking wrong? after all 3.5 is on its way out | 01:14 |
| mefisto__ | byteme_: nothing wrong with that thinking. I'd agree | 01:15 |
| byteme_ | I just built him a great system and he will be dual booting | 01:16 |
| mefisto__ | byteme_: you could give your friend kubuntu hardy (which has kde3) and install kde4 from ppa repo for a taste of things to come | 01:17 |
| byteme_ | I told like to give away anything but the latest stuff, but I feel I will be getting a ton more 'help me & how to' calls with 4.1 | 01:17 |
| byteme_ | yeah, good idea | 01:18 |
| mefisto__ | byteme_: then you'll have the opportunity to help with the upgrade to 9.04 when kde4 will hopefully be more mature | 01:19 |
| byteme_ | yeah sweet | 01:19 |
| hec_ | hello @ all, need help to configure my wlan card in kubuntu 8.10 | 01:20 |
| hec_ | with the network manager i dont find a network | 01:21 |
| byteme_ | its funny I am beta testing Windows 7 for M$... and the start bar is a complete rip off the KDE task bar | 01:21 |
| byteme_ | (3.5 version) | 01:22 |
| byteme_ | it's a spoofed up version of Vista | 01:22 |
| jammen33 | nice | 01:22 |
| byteme_ | the start bar id even partially trasparent | 01:23 |
| jammen33 | well at least their copying something good | 01:23 |
| byteme_ | I wonder when they will ever get an original idea | 01:24 |
| jammen33 | 3033? | 01:24 |
| byteme_ | they used to have so many cool new stuff, now they copy Linux and MAC | 01:24 |
| byteme_ | true | 01:24 |
| jammen33 | is their still there | 01:24 |
| byteme_ | ? | 01:25 |
| jammen33 | if MS is still around in 3033 | 01:25 |
| hec_ | has nobody a tip for me? | 01:25 |
| byteme_ | lol, got yeah | 01:25 |
| byteme_ | hec_: is it a fresh install? | 01:26 |
| etfb | *** I just made my sound work!!!! | 01:26 |
| hec_ | yes, with the updates per cable | 01:26 |
| etfb | How the hell did I do that??? | 01:26 |
| etfb | Weird! | 01:26 |
| hec_ | i se the card with lspci | 01:26 |
| etfb | I think it was the sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel! | 01:27 |
| etfb | Now how do I make that persistent for the next time I boot? Does anyone know? | 01:27 |
| mister-tea-lapto | add it to grub | 01:27 |
| byteme_ | should be auto, but i have seen where it wasnt and I forgot the command | 01:27 |
| etfb | mister-tea-lapto: How so? I presume it's an option like splash and... all the rest that I don't recall. But what syntax? | 01:28 |
| byteme_ | can one have 8.10 with kde 3.5? where are the options, man??!! | 01:28 |
| byteme_ | I want my freedom | 01:29 |
| mister-tea-lapto | I had the same problem with a different card and I just added the modprobe line to my grub | 01:29 |
| jammen33 | byteme_: i dont think so, unless you compile from source | 01:29 |
| etfb | byteme_: Looks like they don't want you using 3.5 any more. I don't blame them -- supporting two versions is a pain. But it's bad for those of us who don't like waiting for the basics to work.... | 01:29 |
| jammen33 | or those with old computers | 01:30 |
| byteme_ | yeah, exactly. I love the look of 4.1, but IMO it just isnt ready (for me) | 01:30 |
| etfb | You want irony? The first YouTube I opened to check that the sound worked there had had its audio disabled because of copyright... | 01:31 |
| etfb | The second one worked though. | 01:31 |
| byteme_ | lol | 01:31 |
| etfb | So, refresh my memory here. Modprobe does... what? Activates an inactive module in the kernel, right? | 01:33 |
| etfb | Or does it install it, like loading a DLL in Windows? | 01:33 |
| Dr_willis | probes a module | 01:34 |
| Dr_willis | module = kernel driver | 01:34 |
| Dr_willis | modprobe networkcarddriver.ko -> loads that driver for whatever device | 01:34 |
| etfb | Ah, Dr_willis -- good to see you. My memory may be hazy, but it seems any time I've solved a problem in Linux, you've had a hand in it somewhere. So tell me, if modprobe snd-hda-intel is the command to make my sound miraculously start working, what do I need to edit so I get that effect every time I reboot? | 01:35 |
| Dr_willis | !modules | 01:36 |
| ubottu | To compile modules and drivers that are not bundled with the standard kernel, for more info /msg ubottu kernel , install the relevant package, usually called "<modulename>-source", and run « sudo module-assistant » (you will have to do this again after kernel updates). To prevent specific modules from loading, see /msg ubottu blacklist | 01:36 |
| Dr_willis | its supposed to auto load.. hal is suppose to handle that i think.. or theres a modules file that autoloads stuff also | 01:36 |
| Dr_willis | # /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time. | 01:36 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: That was it! I remember seeing that file, but couldn't recall the name. /etc/modules is too simple - it should be something like /etc/splinge-0.0.23.8492d/wibble.rc/03-flurbnax.fdi and be stored in a cryptic XML format... | 01:38 |
| etfb | Rebooting it now... let's see if it makes pretty noises at me... | 01:40 |
| Dr_willis | that would be windows.. only it would be in c:/Windows/Winlibs/win32/system32/stuff/local/roaming/cssid-1234-213-5243-51-234-5245-234-234-65-32453425234-23432-5 | 01:40 |
| etfb | Well it works, although for some reason it started with the sound muted in kmix. | 01:43 |
| khalidmian | i cant seem to add deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main to adept | 01:43 |
| khalidmian | pls help | 01:44 |
| cjae_ | walbert: so I figured out why my ethernet wasn't working | 01:45 |
| Dr_willis | give more details khalidmian ? You could try editing the /etc/apt/sources.list directly also | 01:45 |
| etfb | How do I figure out what colour depth I'm using? I know I'm on 1920x1080 cos it says so in System Settings | Display, but there's no number of colours, and it looks like I'm on something low. | 01:46 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: i dont know how to add repositories via sudo im trying to update amarok | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:47 |
| Dr_willis | add it to the end. | 01:47 |
| cjae_ | walbert: stup*d Q^&#@^$*windows turns the ethernet card off when it shuts down and linux can't turn it back on you have to deselect that setting from device manager in windows | 01:47 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: give a moment to see if it works | 01:47 |
| cjae_ | then enable WOL in the bios | 01:47 |
| cjae_ | for anyone having troubles with realtek ethernet cards and dual boot sernarios http://reynantem.blogspot.com/2008/12/ubuntu-810-ethernet-problem-solved.html | 01:52 |

| Dr_willis | realtek makes a lot of cards. :) | 01:52 |
| cjae_ | unreal | 01:52 |
| walbert | i still haven't figured out my problem, as a matter of fact | 01:52 |

| sashaye | Hi | 01:53 |
| etfb | The Display page in System Settings in Intrepid sucks fairly badly, doesn't it. The way the information pane won't resize and doesn't fit the controls makes me wonder if the devs can even spell "test". | 01:55 |
| sashaye | ok | 01:55 |
| sashaye | oh did you get the sound on ur laptop? | 01:56 |
| etfb | KDE4: Because Microsoft Vista proved that "fit and finish" is optional. | 01:56 |
| * Dr_willis is reminded of many MS tools/dialog box;s that cant even be resized | 01:56 | |
| walbert | etfb: amen! | 01:56 |
| sashaye | you switched to vista | 01:56 |
| etfb | sashaye: Yes, I did. Gods only know how. modprobe snd-hda-intel did it, and putting that module name in /etc/modules made it permanent. | 01:57 |
| etfb | And no, I did not switch to Vista. If I ever feel the urge to do that, I'll reach for a nailgun and put a hole in my head. | 01:57 |
| shentino | anyone know of a bt client that can select peers based on distance or hop count? | 01:57 |
| shentino | besides vuze | 01:57 |
| etfb | (Same effect, only cheaper) | 01:57 |
| sashaye | ahh | 01:57 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: Trouble is, I haven't seen a Windoze dialog that stupid in many years. Admittedly (a) I don't use software that's that badly written by choice, and (b) I don't use Vista (see item a). | 01:58 |
| faileas | etfb: i actually tried it for a few weeks... | 01:58 |
| faileas | and having tried it... i was underwhelmed ;p | 01:59 |
| * walbert once saw vista.... looked, but didn't touch | 01:59 | |
| Dr_willis | etfb, i see them all the time.. could be the idiot programmers are using some old method.. then again.. Vista died on me last week.. so i dont plan on reinstalling it. | 01:59 |
| sashaye | vista is a pain in the neck | 01:59 |
| sashaye | once I was using xp | 02:00 |
| sashaye | and switched to vista | 02:00 |
| sashaye | first prob | 02:00 |
| sashaye | no sound | 02:00 |
| sashaye | fixed it | 02:00 |
| sashaye | next prob | 02:00 |
| sashaye | it cant work with my printer | 02:00 |
| sashaye | fixed it | 02:00 |
| sashaye | next prob | 02:00 |
| sashaye | it used up too much Ram | 02:00 |
| sashaye | its like a virus of some kind | 02:01 |
| sashaye | looks pretty | 02:01 |
| sashaye | then kaboom | 02:01 |
| sashaye | problems | 02:01 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: seems ver complicated to edit under terminal sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:02 |
| Dr_willis | a 10 sec edit is complex? | 02:02 |
| Dr_willis | time to learn to use the editor i guess.. it would take me longer to find where in adept to add a source.. then it would to edit that file | 02:03 |
| yotux | is there a weather widget for KDE4 | 02:03 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: im a newbie i dont know how to paste under terminal | 02:03 |
| khalidmian | youtux i havent found one | 02:03 |
| sashaye | I have a ques | 02:03 |
| Dr_willis | select, middle click.. | 02:03 |
| yotux | ctrl-shift-v | 02:03 |
| Dr_willis | or select text.. copy, use menus to paste | 02:03 |
| sashaye | there is no sound on my laptop | 02:03 |
| sashaye | does anyone know how to fix it | 02:04 |
| asobi | using keep, what if the backup destination is unmounted? does it skip and wait until the next interval? | 02:04 |
| Dr_willis | note in nano - the help at the bottom ^ = control key | 02:04 |
| mefisto__ | khalidmian: just do the edit, then ctrl-X to exit. it will ask if you want to save the changes you made, etc | 02:04 |
| Dr_willis | i really think nano shouldbe replaced with a slightly better editor. | 02:04 |
| khalidmian | how to i go to the line where i want to place text | 02:04 |
| Dr_willis | arrow keys perhaps? | 02:04 |
| Dr_willis | thats the logical thing to try. | 02:05 |
| squidy | yotux: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/SMHI+weather+plasmoid?content=93235 | 02:05 |
| yotux | thankz squidy | 02:05 |
| Dr_willis | or instead of nano, use 'kdesudo EDITORYOULIKE /etc/apt/sources.list' | 02:05 |
| Dr_willis | I like the 'geany' editor | 02:05 |
| sashaye | does anyone know how to put sound on a recently installed ubuntu 8.04 | 02:05 |
| Dr_willis | sashaye, depending on the card.. You may need to upgrade your alsa | 02:06 |
| Dr_willis | which can be a pain. | 02:06 |
| sashaye | whats an alsa | 02:06 |
| Dr_willis | !alsa | 02:07 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 02:07 |
| Dr_willis | ALSA - the sound system linux systems normally use | 02:07 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: E: Couldn't find package amarok-kde4 | 02:08 |
| sashaye | where do I find this K menu ? | 02:08 |
| Dr_willis | khalidmian, apt-get basics.. you must 'refresh' the package listings after altering the sources.list | 02:08 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: That ubottu thing must be out of date - there's no Sound System in System Settings. | 02:08 |
| Dr_willis | sudo apt-get update | 02:08 |
| Dr_willis | sudo apt-get upgrade | 02:09 |
| Dr_willis | ten try again | 02:09 |
| etfb | Why doesn't dpkg-reconfigure work any more? I want to change my screen resolution, and it worked last time I tried (in a previous version of Ubuntu) | 02:11 |
| sashaye | I paste what I got from the terminal | 02:12 |
| sashaye | the url is http://paste.ubuntu.com/109208/ | 02:12 |
| sashaye | http://paste.ubuntu.com/109210/ | 02:14 |
| Dr_willis | X uses a 'minimal' xorg.conf now a days.. its supposed to auto-detect most things | 02:17 |
| === ubuntu is now known as kennshin | ||
| mefisto__ | making it even more mysterious and worthy of the name X | 02:19 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: Certainly doesn't autodetect my screen's colour depth worth a damn... | 02:20 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: als doesnt auto detect if connected to another monitor or tv | 02:21 |
| etfb | And then I can't change it because KDE4 doesn' t think I should need to. If I wanted to be treated like an idiot, I'd be using Gnome... | 02:21 |
| Dr_willis | For my systems i normally have to have the ati or nvidia drivers installed for the proper res/stuff to get detected.. but i am using DVI connectors also on a LCD | 02:22 |
| sashaye | thank you so much | 02:28 |
| sashaye | I am finally hearing sound on it | 02:28 |

| d3jake | if I have used ndisgtk which I found out about from this page: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/EasyWirelessDrivers And found the windows driver properly, do I need to restart before I can use the wireless card? or do I have to take some more steps? | 02:53 |
| d3jake | that page doesn't help much | 02:53 |
| dmainou | hi, I just installed kubuntu in this machine anfd for some reason I can't see the synaptic package manager can anyone please help me to add it to the main menu | 02:54 |
| Dr_willis | install the synaptic manager tool? | 02:59 |
| Dr_willis | adept i the kde default tool | 02:59 |
| Dr_willis | 'sudo apt-get install synaptic' | 02:59 |
| dmainou | Hi no I haven't I just want to enable the multiverse. | 03:00 |
| Dr_willis | i always just edit /etc/apt/sources.list todo that | 03:00 |
| Dr_willis | adept can do that also i imagine | 03:01 |
| Dr_willis | or theres some check box's in the 'add/remove' interface | 03:01 |
| dmainou | Thanks... I'm trying to install ther azalia drivers and it's giving me some headakes... | 03:01 |
| Omikane_ | How do I create more profiles for FF? I deleted all of mine... :( | 03:02 |
| Dr_willis | firefox --help - i thinktheres a command line option to make one.. | 03:03 |
| Dr_willis | but i though it made them by default the frst time it ran | 03:03 |
| dmainou | found it within adept... many thanks. | 03:03 |
| d3jake | Wireless and kubuntu don't like each other.... good thing there are wiki pages everywhere with help on them ^^ | 03:04 |
| jsubl2 | iwl3945 works well here | 03:05 |
| d3jake | mine is a.....bcm4318... | 03:06 |
| jsubl2 | yeah i here those are a little more difficult | 03:06 |
| d3jake | oh bother... right now I have a ~50-60ft ethernet cable up to this computer, I want to get the wireless working so I don't have to screw with it. | 03:07 |
| Dr_willis | bcm4318 - i thought ya just installed the 'b43-fwcutter' tool for thise | 03:07 |
| Dr_willis | but that needs internet to get the firmware :) | 03:08 |
| d3jake | Dr_willis, do you have a refrence page somewhere that talks about that? | 03:09 |
| Dr_willis | all i did was 'sudo apt-get isntall b43-fwcutter' and wasy it went :) | 03:10 |
| Dr_willis | then i could use wireless.. so i then unplugged the wire. :) | 03:10 |
| d3jake | oh, cool! | 03:10 |
| d3jake | this is the second time you've helped me out ^^ | 03:10 |
| Dr_willis | i was thinking the 'restricted-driver' tool also automated this | 03:11 |

| Frederick | Dr_willis: are you there? | 03:15 |
| Omikane_ | anyone know how I would I bring my logins and passwords over from a FF profile backup? I just lost my server logins! | 03:20 |
| BentFrank | I have two Kubuntu 8.10 systems. Both nomimally have Adept 3.0 Beta 4 (Sheldon), KDE 4.1.3. But both look different. And one won't show the Search icon and won't find packages I need, like cups or sshd. I don't understand why they are so different? | 03:41 |
| Dr_willis | i would guess you got different repos enabled? | 03:53 |
| Dr_willis | but cups and sshd are in MAIN so should be in both | 03:53 |

| DaSkreech | ha ha | 05:47 |
| DaSkreech | hooray /. | 05:47 |
| DaSkreech | 6 pages of interview with Linus The only thing they notice is that he mentions he is now using Gnome | 05:47 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. so he cant try out other desktops eh? :) | 05:48 |
| Dr_willis | The Downadup worm — also called Conflicker — has now infected an estimated 10 million PCs worldwide, | 05:50 |
| DaSkreech | Well I think it's mostly cause he insulted them so badly and publicly | 05:50 |
| Dr_willis | gnome is dumbed down. :) | 05:50 |
| Dr_willis | he was right | 05:50 |
| Dr_willis | heh | 05:50 |
| DaSkreech | was? | 05:50 |
| Dr_willis | He thinks KDE 4 is a 'disaster.' Although it's improved recently, he'll find many who agree with this prognosis, and KDE 4 can be painful to use." | 05:51 |
| Dr_willis | He dident like gnome because it was 'dumbed down' it still is. | 05:51 |
| Dr_willis | i alsoo agree with his kde4 comments. :) | 05:52 |
| DaSkreech | Yeah | 05:52 |
| DaSkreech | Though he has only used KDE 4.0 | 05:52 |
| Dr_willis | 4.2 is an improvement.. but i think at this rate i will wait for kde 5.6 | 05:54 |
| DaSkreech | That's probably 4-5 years in the future | 05:58 |
| Dr_willis | I will stick with JWM till then. : | 05:58 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 05:58 |
| ohhai | How do I make a folderview with my Desktop in KDE 4.2 RC1 full screen and have a background for it? | 05:58 |
| caustin | Can anyone here running 4.2rc1 simulate an apt-get install for kphotoalbum ? | 06:06 |
| caustin | tell me if it wants to remove kdeplasma-addons ? | 06:06 |
| Dr_willis | The following packages will be REMOVED: | 06:08 |
| Dr_willis | kdeplasma-addons libkexiv2-7 | 06:08 |
| Dr_willis | I install that.. then try sudo apt-get install kdeplasma-addons libkexiv2-7 | 06:10 |
| Dr_willis | The following packages will be REMOVED: | 06:11 |
| Dr_willis | kipi-plugins libkexiv2-3 | 06:11 |
| caustin | oh, so they will install after I do the remove with the kphotoalbum install? | 06:11 |
| Dr_willis | well kdeplasma-addons got reinstalled.. | 06:11 |
| Dr_willis | looks like i got kphptoalbim and kdeplasma-addons both installed now | 06:11 |
| SilentDis | hello :) having a bit of problem with knetworkmanager and setting up a simple static IP for a LAN with no DHCP server. I'm unsure what to fill in for a few of the fields. I'd like to give this machine 192.168.0.10. | 06:12 |
| caustin | Dr_willis: thanks, I'll try now. | 06:13 |
| SilentDis | IP addy: 192.168.0.10, netmask 255.255.255.0... what do i fill in for gateway dns addr. and dns search? the interface refuses to come up without these filled in. | 06:14 |
| Dr_willis | i use the ip of my router for my DNS.. or the isp's dns ip - if i know it | 06:14 |
| Dr_willis | gateway = router ip also | 06:14 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: no router. ad hoc | 06:14 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: just 2 machines with a simple switch between 'em. | 06:15 |
| Dr_willis | ip of the machine that is doing the internet shareing perhaps? or is this just a peer to peer lan? | 06:15 |
| Dr_willis | then it wont matter mich i imagine.. | 06:15 |
| Dr_willis | ip of other box or 127.0.0.1 perhaps | 06:15 |
| Dr_willis | or install a dhcp server on one machine. | 06:16 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: i've never been able to get any sharing working right, that was my first thought as well. network manager keeps screwing up all the settings :( | 06:16 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: never been able to get a DHCP server setup right either, same problem. | 06:16 |
| Dr_willis | insrtall dhcp server.. set both machines to use dhcp/auto and it should work or at least it has for me in the past | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | this is a wireless network? or wired? | 06:17 |
| SilentDis | wired. | 06:17 |
| SilentDis | <machine> - <simple switch> - <machine> | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | you are usng proper hardware? :) looks like it. | 06:17 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: back in... hmm... 7.04 or so... this all worked great. now I have no end to trouble getting things setup right with network manager constantly stealing ports and such. it's almost more hastle than it's worth to me, mainly because i use EVDO to get on the 'net (only thing available to me out here) from my cellphone, which, obviously, comes with me when i leave | 06:19 |
| ohhai | How do I make a folderview with my Desktop in KDE 4.2 RC1 full screen and have a background for it? | 06:20 |
| SilentDis | i'd love to get network sharing working, and a dhcp server running on this machine, i've just given up hope because i've had so many problems. | 06:20 |
| Dr_willis | could be network manaer trying to be smart.. but ive not tried your exact situation in ages | 06:21 |
| Dr_willis | I always got a little router handy | 06:21 |
| Dr_willis | so is one machine going to the internet some how? | 06:21 |
| SilentDis | if i could find a router with a usb port that could handle this kinda thing, i'd switch to it in a heartbeat. i'm seriously thinking of bringing in a low powered computer to the mix and connecting the cellphone to that and using it like a 'router' with ubutnu server. | 06:22 |
| Dr_willis | usb port? phone? what are ya trying to do? im missing somthing hehe... | 06:22 |
| SilentDis | lol understandable. my internet connection is provided via EVDO. I connect a USB cable to my cellphone, HAL assigns it ttyACM0, network manager actually recognizes it as an EVDO capable device, and Just Works (tm). | 06:23 |
| Dr_willis | So you are trying to get the 2nd pc going thrugh the first one? | 06:24 |
| Dr_willis | to get to the internetz? | 06:24 |
| SilentDis | that would be ideal, yes, but since my cellphone comes with me, the settings keep screwing up, and i can never get stuff to 'stick'. | 06:24 |
| Dr_willis | cell -> pc1 --> pc2 | 06:25 |
| SilentDis | bingo | 06:25 |
| Dr_willis | pc1 would be the gateway and dns server for the 2nd one. | 06:25 |
| Dr_willis | !ics | 06:25 |
| ubottu | If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 06:25 |
| Dr_willis | that url may have some info also | 06:25 |
| SilentDis | that's the idea, but as i said, gotta bring down the 'net connection constantly, and have it come back up worry-free. the dhcp servers i've tried never work right. | 06:25 |
| knic | how do i request a reset of my network adapters dhcp (similar to pump) on cmdline for kubuntu? | 06:26 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: reading now, i'll give it another go, i assume i just keep missing something in the configs. | 06:27 |
| BentFrank | SilentDis: Network Manager has a bug that resets youback to DHCP. If you want static IP follow this...http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-set-a-static-ip-address-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html | 06:39 |
| SilentDis | BentFrank: thanks for that :D | 06:40 |
| SilentDis | BentFrank: ah crap. not good, bug is in network manager that keeps resetting my stuff. and network manager is what i use to setup the evdo connection. aargh. | 06:41 |
| BentFrank | yeah, unf'ly part of the fix is to remove network manager | 06:43 |
| Dr_willis | yea - network manager has cause issues over the years... :) | 06:43 |
| ohhai | How do I upgrade OpenOffice.org to the 3rd version? | 06:44 |
| SilentDis | i guess i'll need to grab kppp before i go any further on any of this then. | 06:44 |
| SilentDis | with network manager out of the picture, though, i should be able to get this setup on my own. that's been the bane of my existance this whole time >.< | 06:46 |
| DaSkreech | ohhai: Get it from a PPA or from openoffice directly | 06:47 |
| ohhai | DaSkreech: How can I add ppa to my repositories? | 06:48 |

| Dr_willis | !autostart | 09:14 |
| ubottu | To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. In KDE 3.X the package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory. For a complete KDE 3.X guide, see http://jucato.org/kde/kde-autostart.html | 09:14 |

| senorpedro | afaik the 3d stuff in vbox is very slow | 09:44 |

| senorpedro | well you can try | 09:44 |
| pankovs | GF 9600 GT my videocard | 09:44 |

| pankovs | good by | 09:46 |
| Dr_willis | 3d stuff in either one - i imagine will be less then great. :) | 09:46 |

| micha__ | .avi could be xvid divx mpeg4 but that doesn\t matter they should all work ohhai | 09:57 |
| Dr_willis | a lot will depend on the specific CODEC of the avi file | 09:57 |
| Dr_willis | avi could be one of several Dozen codecs :) used in it | 09:57 |
| truetothegame | vlc dnt need extras | 09:57 |
| Dr_willis | if not more | 09:57 |
| ohhai | I installed w32codecs and SMPlayer/MPlayer, and I get only the sound. | 09:57 |

| Dr_willis | ohhai, run the player from a terminal. and look for error messages/info about the video file also | 09:58 |

| truetothegame | both | 10:01 |
| truetothegame | hi | 10:01 |
| blackbird | plz i'm newbie | 10:01 |
| blackbird | i have some problems | 10:01 |
| blackbird | i use kubuntu 8.10 | 10:02 |
| truetothegame | just say the problems dnt talk down on ones self | 10:02 |
| stdin | ohhai: it's a video driver, not a graphics driver. it's only used by the media player | 10:02 |
| blackbird | first how to install a tar.gz after unzipping ? | 10:03 |
| ohhai | stdin: Crashes VLC. =( | 10:03 |
| ohhai | XVideo driver that is. | 10:03 |
| stdin | works in mplayer | 10:04 |
| truetothegame | what ohhai mean | 10:04 |
| Dr_willis | blackbird, what are you trying to install exactly? | 10:05 |
| truetothegame | vlc easier just install then it run | 10:05 |
| stdin | easier than "mplayer filename.avi" ? | 10:05 |
| truetothegame | yep | 10:05 |
| stdin | is is psychic? | 10:05 |
| Dr_willis | Psycotic! | 10:05 |
| truetothegame | install vlc and avi just plays no extra needed | 10:05 |
| Dr_willis | apt-get install kde-esp | 10:05 |
| blackbird | second i found a driver for my low speed modem in rpm i try to use alien to convert it to .deb but this message appears : "Error executing "LANG=C rpm -qp --queryformat %{NAME} sm56.rpm": at /usr/locashare/perl/5.10.0/Alien/Package.pm line 482." | 10:06 |
| Tinason | if its for kubuntu, it would ne psykic | 10:06 |
| Dr_willis | there are AVI's that vlc cant play. :) but those tend to be avi's that people shouldent be watching anyway | 10:06 |
| stdin | truetothegame: as you've been told, avi is a container, not a codec. saying "I can play avi" means nothing | 10:06 |
| blackbird | i try to install firefox | 10:06 |
| ohhai | stdin: X11 - Insufficient resources for operation, many times --- the errors I get when trying to play my .avi file. Only sound comes out. | 10:06 |
| Dr_willis | blackbird, firefox is in the repositories.. 'sudo apt-get install firefox' will install it. | 10:07 |
| truetothegame | im a newb after years | 10:07 |
| stdin | ohhai: ouch | 10:07 |
| Dr_willis | blackbird, as for drivers.. those can be a bit more of a proboem | 10:07 |
| stdin | ohhai: is "Accelerated video output" checked? | 10:07 |
| ohhai | stdin: Yep. | 10:08 |
| stdin | ohhai: try without it | 10:08 |
| ohhai | stdin: Errors come from mplayer, btw. | 10:08 |
| stdin | oh, ok | 10:08 |
| ohhai | As for VLC, checked both with and without accelerated output. =( | 10:08 |
| blackbird | i want to convert .rpm to .deb using alien | 10:09 |
| stdin | ohhai: same with xv? | 10:09 |
| stdin | blackbird: why? | 10:09 |
| ohhai | stdin: Yep. It works though when desktop effects are disabled. =( | 10:10 |
| blackbird | because kubuntu dont use rpm ! right ? | 10:10 |
| ohhai | blackbird: Everything you need can be found in .deb as well. | 10:10 |
| stdin | blackbird: I mean, why do you need to convert an rpm? what are you trying to install? | 10:10 |
| ohhai | blackbird: Converting is probably the worst choice. In the extreme case, compiling would be better. =) | 10:11 |
| ohhai | Worst as in not very error-prone. | 10:11 |
| blackbird | modem driver stdin | 10:11 |
| ohhai | Oh, I take my words back. =) | 10:11 |
| ohhai | Those are hard to find. | 10:11 |

| etfb | I'm using Kubuntu 8.10, and I want to know what my colour-depth is. That is, what is the "colour resolution" of my current display? 15 bit, 16, 24, 32? How do I tell? | 10:58 |
| afd_ | aha | 10:58 |
| * fidji probablement en train de jouer au Go | 10:58 | |
| Dr_willis | I think 'xvidtune' can tell you etfb or the 'xrandr' command | 10:58 |
| micha__ | normal is 24 etfb | 10:58 |
| OxDeadC0de | haha it took me a bit to get that dr_willis | 10:58 |
| etfb | No luck with xrandr... | 10:58 |
| Dr_willis | those show res..not the depth. :) | 10:59 |
| OxDeadC0de | classic! | 10:59 |
| etfb | ... or xvidtune. | 10:59 |
| etfb | micha__: I'm pretty sure it's display 16 bit colour, which looks pretty crap. | 10:59 |
| OxDeadC0de | micha_ well it can't be 4.2 as it's still not completely released yet.. it could be the beta or rc though :P | 10:59 |
| afd_ | is it possible to use dashboard widgets in plasma? I've tried 2 widgets already downloaded from apple.com and none of them can be selected when adding a new widget from file | 11:00 |
| afd_ | should I unzip them? | 11:00 |
| Dr_willis | adf_ i dident think thse were useable on kde4's stuff | 11:00 |
| OxDeadC0de | afd_ might not work, but i bet it's a file extension issue? | 11:01 |
| afd_ | http://aseigo.blogspot.com/2008/10/feature-completing-mac-os-dashboard.html | 11:01 |
| Dr_willis | of course i do recaall that being a feature to be worked on.. but never seen it used yet | 11:01 |
| OxDeadC0de | afd_ or figure out the right plasmapkg -i command to install the zipfile | 11:01 |
| etfb | afd_: I can't imagine they would be. OSX != Linux, and dashboard stuff assumes some proprietary Safari features. | 11:01 |
| Dr_willis | kde4 is very much a work in progress. :) | 11:01 |
| micha__ | OxDeadC0de: http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=e9cad4bb690e047a81d165176fa7063d54a55313 yes it is but it is nice | 11:01 |
| afd_ | etfb: so then why implement support for dashboard widgets? | 11:02 |
| afd_ | if none of them are going to work? | 11:02 |
| Dr_willis | 'Right now Plasma implements exactly zero of them in the Dashboard ScriptEngine, causing several widgets to fail when loaded.' | 11:02 |
| OxDeadC0de | micha_ very cool | 11:02 |
| etfb | afd_: You got me there. Did they? I'm no expert. | 11:02 |
| Dr_willis | adf_ from what i am reading.. None work :) | 11:02 |
| afd_ | etfb: http://aseigo.blogspot.com/2008/10/feature-completing-mac-os-dashboard.html | 11:02 |
| etfb | In KDE 3 there was a program that let me see all sorts of settings and hardware info. Any idea what it was called? Something info? | 11:03 |
| micha__ | not so big works fine on my notebook and you can have a look at how things are developing ... OxDeadC0de | 11:03 |
| Dr_willis | afd_, from wha ti am readins at that site.. only the most basic of osx widgets might work. | 11:03 |
| micha__ | i am still using kde3 because kde4 is not as customizable as i like it to be ... but with the relase of 4.2 i might go for it :) | 11:04 |
| OxDeadC0de | micha_ I use nightly-neon's nightly svn build for that, or 4.2rc1 from launchpad (also part of the neon project) | 11:05 |
| micha__ | well i might not have much choice because it will get into debian/sid and that would mean i get it if i like it or not :) | 11:05 |
| deamoon | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/109312/ | 11:06 |

| micha__ | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1046158 that might help deamoon | 11:12 |
| gmasucci | appearently there is a conflicting file in soprano provided by two different packages | 11:13 |
| gmasucci | or at least it was there yesterday evening | 11:14 |
| gmasucci | i'm trying this again from a fresh jaunty installation..will report in a minute | 11:15 |
| gmasucci | well the problem is still there | 11:15 |
| gmasucci | Errors were encountered while processing: | 11:15 |
| gmasucci | /var/cache/apt/archives/libsoprano-dev_2.1.67+dfsg.1-0ubuntu2_i386.deb | 11:15 |

| gmasucci | trying to overwrite `/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.soprano.Model.xml', which is also in package soprano-daemon | 11:16 |
| gmasucci | so the problem seems to be a conflict between soprano-daemon and libsoprano-dev | 11:17 |
| johannes_ | hi, i have ot problems with my graphic driver, intel gma x3100, flickering screen...i cannpt get it right.any body an idea? | 11:18 |

| gmasucci | johannes...intel cards are under major changes...so instabilities are somehow to be expected right now...btw jaunty is on kernel 2.6.28 and intel developers raccomend using some patches agains it..also are you using default configuration (EXA acceleration) or UXA? | 11:21 |
| ulysses__ | gmasucci, I try to install kde 4.2 rc1 on my kubuntu 8.10, it also have problems, i run dpkg-reconfigure -a, it's running for 30 minutes, i hope it will help | 11:21 |

| gmasucci | ulysses, in my case the problem is clear. The file org.soprano.Model.xml is contained both in soprano-daemon and libsoprano-dev and the packaege manager goes crazy about it...so the prob is in these 2 packages. But I'm on jaunty and I don't know if the intrepid backport is affected by the same problem :) | 11:33 |
| StR|Sangreal | hi | 11:39 |

| Dr_willis | Hmm... | 11:46 |
| Dr_willis | you mean you stated that 'kdm' should be the default login manager? You would still have to select kde or gnome from the KDM sessions menu. | 11:46 |

| pilat | Ok, but I'm at loss in defining "related package" or whatever category for this bug... Can somebody assist in this question? | 13:37 |
| draik | How do I stop particular modules from loading at startup? Specifically, I want to stop lirc from boot since I have nothing for lirc. | 13:39 |

| ActionParsnip1 | StR|Sangreal: or you can add lines in xorg.conf | 13:48 |
| pilat | here's the bug, which I don't know to which package it's related: I regularly have my input locked. I.e., keybord doesn't respond (Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, Ctrl+Alt+F1..F12, all doen't wark as well. Even "Numlock" and such indicators don't react), Also, mouse cursor only moves, but clicks don't work. I can only hard-reset my PC after the lock had happen... :-( | 13:48 |
| StR|Sangreal | to introduce my problem | 13:49 |
| StR|Sangreal | since fglrx isnt compatible with ubuntu intrepid amd64, i had to install an open graphic driver... i have no clue how to configure it and sb out here advised me following config | 13:50 |
| StR|Sangreal | http://pastie.org/370149 | 13:50 |
| StR|Sangreal | the video stopped flickering and the szstem runs more fine | 13:50 |
| StR|Sangreal | however, i lost the option to setup keyboard, visual effects were disabled and maybe some more troubles i couldnt yet discover | 13:51 |
| pilat | The exact action, which causes this lock is not defined as well.. Last time it locked when I worked with DigiKam.. Sometimes it locks when I'm trying to close firefox.. But this is not full list of "reasons". It may lock while I do nothing, for example.. | 13:51 |
| draik | Is lirc a module or a service? Either way, I'm not finding it to disable from startup. | 13:51 |
| === ubuntu is now known as audiopathik | ||
| pilat | draik: hm.. I don't see "lirc" in my precesses at all.. | 13:52 |
| pilat | draik: what about System settings :: Advanced :: Service manager? | 13:53 |
| draik | pilat: lirc fails at boot and I don't have anything for lirc to run so I would rather disable it, and possibly other services/modules, to speed up the startup time. | 13:54 |
| draik | pilat: I'm there now, nothing mentioned. | 13:54 |
| pilat | and what "modinfo lirc" says? | 13:54 |
| draik | pilat: modinfo: could not find module lirc | 13:57 |
| micha__ | Hi, does anyone have some experience with the intel storage matrix RAID system? | 13:58 |
| pilat | StR|Sangreal: I dont's have anything about "Generic Keyboard" in my xorg.conf, and everything is well configured thrugh KDE's system settings. Maybe, ithas a sense to comment this section out (Intrepid uses HAL, which makes quite good work in auto-mode)? | 13:59 |
| Frederick | Folks what %u stands for when calling an application? | 13:59 |

| gps23 | Frederick, ignore my message then, there is a %u there too | 14:03 |

| gps23 | Frederick, where have you seen %u? | 14:04 |
| Frederick | kde in the command to launch aplications from kde menu | 14:04 |
| Frederick | bash does not lists %u as a command | 14:04 |
| gps23 | Frederick, i don't remember seeing it, its most probably used as a placeholder for something | 14:05 |
| pilat | draik: maybe "sudo aptitude uninstall lirc"?.. I don't have lirc installed, at all, for example. | 14:05 |
| draik | pilat: Package lirc is not installed, so not removed | 14:06 |
| pilat | Frederick: maybe %u stands for "user"? Ayway, this seems to be something application-specific. | 14:06 |
| pilat | draik: and where you see this program (that it actually works)? | 14:07 |
| Frederick | pilat: I have it for many apps | 14:07 |

| draik | pilat: During boot, I see the things that are being run and lirc fails. I don't have use for lirc and want to stop it from boot. | 14:08 |
| gps23 | Frederick, i found it, its in kmenueditor | 14:10 |
| gps23 | Frederick, seems helpful http://markmail.org/message/tph2s6x3hj36lv6y | 14:10 |
| philippe_ | Hi all | 14:10 |
| pilat | Frederick: seems to stand for "finename" (e.g.: "kate " - will open file "" with kate editor). But it's for Files types associations.. Don't know if it's applicable to menu editor. | 14:11 |
| philippe_ | KDE4.2RC just did disable compositing because it was too slow , giving a message explaining how to re-anabled it ... but I didn't have the time to read it .... so if anyone knows ... | 14:12 |

| pilat | draik: couldn't find any instance of "lirc" in my system logs.. | 14:17 |
| Frederick | gps23: I stil ldunno what is the %u for | 14:17 |
| pilat | draik: and I definitely haven't played with this bevore. Do you use Intrepid? | 14:17 |
| draik | pilat: I wish I could get a screenshot of my computer's startup | 14:18 |
| draik | Yes, I am on Intrepid. | 14:18 |

| gps23 | Frederick, okey | 14:20 |
| pilat | draik: than type "lirc" into the "Filter bar" | 14:20 |
| pilat | this should give some info | 14:20 |
| draik | Nothing with lirc | 14:22 |

| bitmonster | hi. i have a raid hdd that features usb and sata connections. unfortunately the installation only works via usb as the bios only support boot from usb. to support sata i own a pcmcia controller which i want to boot from a usb stick (/boot is already installed on the stick). how can i use e.g. rdinit to provide the necessary modules of the pcmcia controller to migrate from usb connectivity to sata connectivity of the hdd? | 14:23 |
| bitmonster | and how can i find which are the appropriate modules? | 14:24 |
| pilat | draik: another point: do you have "lirc" in the list of processes? (Alt+F2; then click <Show system activity> Icont)? | 14:26 |
| draik | pilat: No, it's not running. It fails at boot so I guess it doesn't run. | 14:27 |
| pilat | Frederick: KDE Help center -> Application manuals -> Settings -> Menu editor; There is some info on how to use it (including the meaning of "" and others) | 14:28 |

| aboSamoor | trying to add the repository here http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2-beta-2 I can find a way to authenticate this repository | 14:31 |
| aboSamoor | ? | 14:31 |
| pilat | draik: couldn't find it in the conf/init files as well (sudo grep -ir "irc" /etc/*), except of couple of lines, in /etc/bash_completion and in /mplayer/input.conf... Maybe, that's some hardware checks by kernel (not even a module, but the core)? | 14:32 |
| pilat | draik: if it's not running after you start, you may simply ignor these messages, I suggest. | 14:33 |
| draik | pilat: I think you're right. It loads and fails because it isn't installed (I'm assuming that's what is happening). | 14:33 |
| aboSamoor | I can not find a way to authenticate the RC1 repo*, please can you help me ? | 14:35 |
| flithm | Hey everyone... I'm looking for the header file "kateviewinternal.h" and I can't find it any of the dev packages. Anyone know if there's a package with this file? | 14:36 |
| ka | Hi. Is there a app(with GUI) that can perform removal of text in multiple files in linux? | 14:38 |
| Adola | ka You can try a program called FSlint | 14:39 |
| === |eagles0513875| is now known as eagles051387 | ||
| Adola | It searches files for certain things. I also believe you can remove them with it | 14:39 |
| === eagles051387 is now known as eagles0513875 | ||
| ka | hm I even have that app installed... I ll check | 14:39 |
| === sudhir is now known as kalp | ||
| kalp | need help with kubuntu interpid display | 14:41 |
| kalp | any expert on this? | 14:41 |
| ka | Hm nope it can't do what I need. I need to remove a trojan from my webpages... It has inserted a javascript into most of my html files. | 14:41 |
| ka | kalp: What is it you need help with? | 14:42 |
| kalp | on my laptop, | 14:42 |
| ka | Just say what you need help with. What you have written so far isn't much to go on... | 14:43 |
| kalp | i chose sum desktop effects and now i dont see anything wen it boots | 14:43 |
| kalp | it books ok, but the screen is all balck | 14:43 |
| kalp | *boots | 14:43 |
| kalp | *black | 14:44 |
| ka | Is the whole screen black or do see a commandline? | 14:44 |
| kalp | entire thing is black and jus coz i know where the icons are , i click and log out | 14:44 |
| ka | ok no problem... | 14:46 |
| ActionParsnip1 | kalp: do you get a logon screen when you boot? | 14:46 |
| ka | I just need to find the config file that you need to change | 14:47 |
| kalp | yes, i do get a login screen | 14:48 |
| ka | kalp: Doyou use compiz or are we talking about KDE4 effects? | 14:48 |
| ActionParsnip1 | kalp: thats good | 14:48 |
| kalp | i put in the password then the desktop is all black, its default , so i am positive its kde4 | 14:48 |
| ActionParsnip1 | kalp: you could drop to root console boot and rename ~/.kde | 14:50 |
| ka | ActionParsnip1: Couldn't he just delete the kwinrc file in .kde/share/config folder As far as I can see this is the file controlling the settings for desktop effects | 14:51 |
| kalp | wen i login from terminal to root login, the touch pad isnt workin, so cant do anything there | 14:51 |
| kalp | is that a solution that can be done from terminal? | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip1 | kalp: i'd do what ka recommends, but rename instead, if that doesnt fly, rename the whole thing | 14:52 |
| kalp | kwinrc isit? | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ka: advising rename is better, users can rollback if necessary | 14:53 |
| Black_Monkey | does anyone have any idea why installing the nvidia graphics driver should make me lose audio? | 14:53 |
| kalp | ~/.kde , what is this? sorry guys i am new to this | 14:53 |
| gps23 | kalp, i think better way is to open kwinrc file and change line compositing=true to compisiting=false | 14:53 |
| kalp | ok | 14:53 |
| === tupac is now known as Tupac_Shakur | ||
| kalp | do u kno the path for kwinrc file? | 14:53 |
| kalp | i cud do that in nano | 14:54 |
| ka | it is /home/Yourusername/.kde/share/config | 14:54 |
| gps23 | kalp, when u reach logon prompt, open console using ctrl-alt-f1 | 14:54 |
| ka | or rather .kde/share/config/kwinrc | 14:54 |
| gps23 | kalp, then use vim/nano to open and edit file described by ka | 14:54 |
| kalp | k | 14:54 |
| ActionParsnip1 | kalp: reach logon, hit session type and change it to console logon | 14:55 |
| kalp | guys thanks , i wil try that right away | 14:55 |
| ka | kalp: have you used vi or nano before? | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip1 | kalp: it will drop you to console where you can login as normal and rename the file | 14:55 |
| kalp | nano, i have | 14:55 |
| ka | ok then you are all set. | 14:55 |
| ka | So guys any one recal my earlier question? About deleting the same text in multiple files with a gui app? | 14:56 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ka: you can use awk and cut | 14:56 |
| gps23 | ka, why don't u used sed? | 14:57 |
| gps23 | use*] | 14:57 |
| gps23 | use* | 14:57 |
| ka | yes I find many links to sed, but somehow the commands for sed dont seem to work because of the multiline blob I need to remove... | 14:58 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ka: then use a find exec combo to find multiple files | 14:59 |
| ka | But then again I suspect there is a sed command for this to. | 14:59 |
| gps23 | ka, use s/// with replacement text as "" | 14:59 |
| ka | I just read a post saying that they used wingrep to remove the offending lines of code and I thoight well linux probably has something like this to... | 15:00 |
| kalp | guys, how do i save the changes in nano? | 15:00 |
| gps23 | ctrl w | 15:00 |
| === POKE53281 is now known as PodeCoet | ||
| ka | isn't it ctrl o? | 15:01 |
| PodeCoet | I can't write to any SD cards under Kubuntu and it's driving me crackers. If I start virtualbox, I can write to the card under XP | 15:01 |
| kalp | ctrl w is "where is" find i guess | 15:01 |
| PodeCoet | but not natively under kubuntu, keeps saying read only | 15:01 |
| Schuenemann | it's ctrl o, yes | 15:02 |
| gps23 | kalp, sorry, its ctrl o | 15:02 |
| gps23 | kalp, hit ctrl x after editing file, it will ask for save and then exit | 15:02 |
| kalp | now how do i go in gui mode from terminal? | 15:02 |
| ka | just do ctrl alt f7 | 15:03 |
| ka | or startx | 15:03 |
| gps23 | if u sed ztrl-atrl-f1 to go to console then use ctrl-atl-f7 | 15:03 |
| gps23 | used* | 15:03 |
| kalp | k | 15:04 |
| ActionParsnip1 | PodeCoet: how are you mounting it and what filesystem is the card using? | 15:04 |
| PodeCoet | ActionParsnip1: It's automounting, and I believe it's vfat | 15:05 |
| ActionParsnip1 | PodeCoet: if you run mount, you will see the mount options it has used to mount it, check it is mounted rw | 15:05 |
| gps23 | ka, u can try: for file in `find <path>`; do sed -i s/<regex for script>// $file ; done; | 15:06 |
| PodeCoet | ActionParsnip1: says readonly, just confirmed it's FAT32. How do I make it automount as writable? | 15:06 |
| ActionParsnip1 | PodeCoet: no idea, i never use automount, you can remount it as rw though | 15:07 |
| PodeCoet | ActionParsnip1: Tried this: sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdd1 /media/disk-1 | 15:07 |
| PodeCoet | and got this: mount: block device /dev/sdd1 is write-protected, mounting read-only | 15:07 |
| PodeCoet | it's not actually write protected | 15:07 |
| PodeCoet | (again it works under WinXP guest under virtualbox) | 15:08 |
| ActionParsnip1 | PodeCoet: unmount it, then run sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdd1 /media/disk-1 -o rw,noatime,user | 15:08 |

| PodeCoet | ActionParsnip1: huh... It seems to be a compatibility issue with my card reader and Kubuntu, I just shoved the SD card into my Mio satnav, and I can read/write fine via kubuntu! | 15:12 |

| pat__ | Hi all, why when i plug in my external hard drive is it owned by root? | 15:14 |
| ActionParsnip1 | me neither, weird | 15:14 |
| gps23 | kalp, i mean, what u did when the problem came | 15:14 |
| ActionParsnip1 | pat__: if it automounts then no, you may need to mount it manually to get user writability | 15:14 |
| W8TAH | hi folks - im running intrepid with the kde4.2 beta, for some reason, kde will only let me have 2 desktops instead of the 4 i want - i have repeatedly set the number of desktops to 4 --- any ideas? | 15:14 |
| pat__ | @ w8tah: try logging out and in again | 15:15 |
| W8TAH | this is a long running problem -- since intrepid was installed | 15:15 |
| ActionParsnip1 | W8TAH: is this in compiz by any chance? | 15:15 |
| W8TAH | ive doen so over and over | 15:15 |
| kalp | i opened the kwinrc file from terminal in nano and edited it, makin the effects false and saved the file, closed it and opened gui mode | 15:15 |
| W8TAH | in compiz and in the standard kde desktop | 15:15 |
| kalp | as i login in, its still the same | 15:15 |
| ActionParsnip1 | W8TAH: in ccsm you can set horizontal desktop size | 15:16 |
| W8TAH | ok - looking | 15:16 |
| gps23 | kalp, no i am asking what u changed in kde, due to which the problem occurred | 15:16 |
| kalp | gps23, u mean why it happened? | 15:16 |
| gps23 | kalp, yes | 15:16 |
| kalp | i enabled some dektop effects | 15:16 |
| gps23 | kalp, if that would have been the reason, then it should have worked | 15:17 |
| gps23 | kalp, u should now try renaming the .kde to something else | 15:17 |
| kalp | .kde , the entire folder? | 15:18 |
| gps23 | kalp, yup, the only effect will be that it will set everything to default | 15:18 |
| W8TAH | ActionParsnip1: can you tell me where in ccsm -- im not seeing it | 15:18 |
| aboSamoor | after adding the Kubuntu 4.2 repo i faced dependency problem can you help me ? this is the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/109418/ ? | 15:18 |

| gps23 | kalp, mv | 15:19 |
| gps23 | kalp, mv .kde .kde-backup | 15:19 |
| pat__ | @ ActionParsnip: Kubuntu automounts the external drive but its owned my root. Would using chmod alter the permissions so i can rwx? Would I have to add it to fstab? | 15:19 |
| ActionParsnip1 | W8TAH: General options and go to Desktop size. This gives Horizontal virtual size | 15:19 |
| kalp | k | 15:19 |
| W8TAH | kool | 15:19 |
| kalp | k done | 15:20 |

| gps23 | kalp, u can go to software sources, then chose other, and then click select best server to chose the best server automatically | 15:32 |
| gps23 | kalp, however this depends on current traffic etc | 15:32 |
| White_Pelican | I'm using 4.2 rc2 under intrepid. I am confused as to how to change some of the colors on the desktop. When I mouse over things, it is white text on a black background. How do I change that? | 15:33 |

| === pxc is now known as thepxc | ||
| gps23 | kalp, then for a test u can chose main ubuntu's server or a US server | 15:34 |
| kalp | k | 15:34 |

| enig | Hello. | 15:40 |
| enig | I'm in need of a little help for i'm still just beggining in the Linux world | 15:41 |
| Schuenemann | !ask | enig | 15:41 |
| ubottu | enig: 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. :-) | 15:41 |
| kalp | guys, signing off, thanks for all ur help!! | 15:41 |
| enig | Well here's the deal, i instaled kubuntu, on partitions i choose manual because i already had Ubuntu installed but i like KDE better. and i ticked the format checkbox on the / disk and chose it to instal kubuntu. Everything works but i can't access my 2 other disks. I'm shure i didn't changed anything on them just the disk that i installed Kubuntu. So why can't i access those 2 other disks? | 15:43 |
| RurouniJones | Definve "access" | 15:43 |
| enig | Oh and btw, i tried Ubuntu Live CD and it says it can't mount the disks, that i could use a command to force it but on my own risk. | 15:44 |
| RurouniJones | you mean boot form or access from kubuntu? | 15:44 |
| ActionParsnip1 | enig: all you had to do was install kubuntu-desktop and you'd have the same | 15:44 |
| enig | Accesss as in going in to the hard drives and open the files- | 15:44 |
| Schuenemann | enig, do a sudo fdisk -l to see if the partitions are still there | 15:44 |
| ActionParsnip1 | enig: you will need them adding to fstab if they arent already there | 15:44 |
| gps23 | i can see that asking to ask a question gets more attention :p | 15:44 |
| enig | Well the 3 hard drives appeared. the ext3 and swap from Linux and the other 2 ntfs i can't acess | 15:45 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !ntfs-3g | enig | 15:47 |
| ubottu | enig: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 15:47 |
| gps23 | excuse me if off topic, just wanna confirm that is it true that kde lost a user by the name of Linus Torvalds? | 15:47 |
| enig | oh. so it was all about it couldn't support ntsf? | 15:47 |

| enig | Mount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use. Choose one action: | 15:55 |
| enig | Choice 1: If you have Windows then disconnect the external devices by | 15:55 |
| enig | clicking on the 'Safely Remove Hardware' icon in the Windows | 15:55 |
| enig | taskbar then shutdown Windows cleanly. | 15:55 |
| enig | Choice 2: If you don't have Windows then you can use the 'force' option for | 15:55 |
| enig | your own responsibility. For example type on the command line: | 15:55 |
| enig | mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /media/Dados2 -o force | 15:55 |
| enig | Or add the option to the relevant row in the /etc/fstab file: | 15:55 |

| aboSamoor | gps23: I added the KDE 4.2 RC1 repo to my repos. I faced a problem in authentication from that repo when I use update-notifier with ubuntu. I solved that by trying the command way. Now I downloaded the packages but while installing i got this http://paste.ubuntu.com/109418/ . so I run apt-get install -f which removed kubuntu-desktop ! Thanks for help :) | 16:02 |
| enig | I only see one. the bigger disk. and it gives me an error when i try to open it | 16:02 |
| leo_rockway | are there any plans to backport kde4.2 for hardy when it comes out? | 16:02 |
| enig | saying that only root can mount a device | 16:03 |

| enig | gps23: oh now i realized, when i type in gksudo ntfs-config i get these 2 errors. http://paste.ubuntu.com/109441/ | 16:06 |
| dsnaike | give me a second getting what u need | 16:06 |
| gps23 | enig, these are warnings by libbonobo, seems to be related to gksudo, u can ignore them | 16:08 |

| === ursula is now known as Guest45467 | ||

| enig | i thought i had root previleges on this user | 16:10 |
| enig | I was checking out the permissions, The owner is root, but all others can view files. | 16:11 |
| enig | Still i get access denied | 16:11 |
| gps23 | enig, for directory i think u need execute permissions to list the files | 16:12 |
| enig | And still giving the "only root can mount the devices" | 16:12 |
| gps23 | enig, as a quick fix u can change owner of the directories | 16:13 |
| gps23 | enig but there has to be a better way | 16:13 |
| enig | Well i'm reading about the mounting it the manual way. | 16:14 |

| gps23 | enig this is true that only root can do mount/umount | 16:16 |

| xliquid | hey folks... | 18:07 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: I did not get far enough to get one, it said no network card detected... | 18:07 |
| DaSkreech | o_O | 18:07 |
| DaSkreech | sudo lshw -c Network | 18:07 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: you have forgotten me, I can tell. | 18:07 |
| DaSkreech | No :) | 18:08 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: did not go through the install, stopped there to reboot to win to see the card did not die. | 18:08 |
| DaSkreech | Just trying to help while cleaning the house so I'm a bit terse | 18:08 |
| DaSkreech | Ah ok | 18:08 |
| DaSkreech | well if the live CD works grab the /etc/network directory and save it | 18:08 |
| DaSkreech | The /etc/mod* might help as well | 18:09 |
| mefisto_ | that should be uppercase C, as in lshw -C Network | 18:09 |
| ubuntu | hi | 18:09 |
| xliquid | i understand this is the place to come if you get stuck using ubuntu | 18:09 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: It looked like a driver problem. | 18:09 |
| DaSkreech | mefisto_: I think it doesn't matter but I normally use -C | 18:09 |
| ubuntu | it's my first time with ubuntu :P | 18:09 |
| DaSkreech | xliquid: Close | 18:09 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: Welcome!! | 18:09 |
| mefisto_ | DaSkreech: lowercase -c won't work | 18:10 |
| DaSkreech | Fair enough | 18:10 |
| ubuntu | thanks daskreech ^^ I'm from Spain | 18:10 |
| ubuntu | my english is too bad :P | 18:10 |
| DaSkreech | ubuntu: Great Would you like to speak in Espanol ? | 18:10 |
| mefisto_ | xliquid: you're in the right place. just ask your question | 18:11 |
| ubuntu | do you speaking spanish? | 18:11 |
| DaSkreech | !es | 18:11 |
| ubottu | En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 18:11 |
| kaminix | To where does the edict package install? | 18:11 |
| ubuntu | oks ubottu | 18:11 |
| xliquid | well im hoping someone can point me in the right direction. im fairly new at ubuntu. so far i have been able to figure things out on my own or search the web for answers. this question has got me stumped... im trying to figure out how to get Transmistion or uTorrent to download stuff to a shared network drive. i can see the drive when i go to places> network> windows network> computer name> F:\ and i can brows around the drive.. open, edit, delete files fr | 18:12 |
| === ubuntu is now known as rause | ||
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: seems to work fine in normal installer, too bad I need raid1 and lvm | 18:14 |
| DaSkreech | xliquid: Hmm this is in Gnome? | 18:14 |
| xliquid | did i say something wrong? | 18:14 |
| xliquid | ...? | 18:15 |
| DaSkreech | no just that Gnome handles networks differently from KDE | 18:15 |
| xliquid | oh sorry, didnt notice the scroll bar hadnt caught up | 18:15 |
| DaSkreech | So #ubuntu would be much more knowlegeable in answering that particular question | 18:15 |
| xliquid | ok | 18:16 |
| Pconfig | hey, i've got some kind of font problem since KDE 4.2 beta ==> KDE 4.2 RC | 18:17 |
| Pconfig | anti aliasing doesn't seem to work anymore | 18:17 |

| Pconfig | anyone else had this? | 18:17 |
| DaSkreech | Lynoure: Should be able to get it working | 18:18 |

| rause | thanks DaSkreech | 18:18 |
| try4ce | Hey my Windows XP installation is messed up and won't boot anymore. I want to repair it but I think the GRUB is preventing me from booting my XP CD. | 18:18 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: yes, by migrating to raid and lvm manually, I guess, it's just many times as much work :( | 18:18 |
| DaSkreech | well I was saying that you can do alternate install and then get network working | 18:19 |
| DaSkreech | Though it really should work | 18:19 |
| DaSkreech | Did hardy have RAID and LVM? | 18:19 |
| DaSkreech | Should. | 18:19 |
| DaSkreech | You can do a minimal install of that then upgrade to Ibex and apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 18:20 |
| mefisto_ | try4ce: grub won't prevent booting from CD. if grub loads, then you've booted in grub. you need to boot from CD before the PC looks at the disk for something to boot into | 18:20 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: I'm not sure if hardy has the network support... another disk to burn. | 18:21 |
| draik | I have a DVD iso on my desktop. I want to cut out a snippet from the video. How do I do this? | 18:21 |
| try4ce | Hmm. Well my CDROM is listed as the first boot device but I'm not sure why it still goes to GRUB first, even when I disable other boot devices. | 18:21 |
| DaSkreech | Lynoure: Yeah Boo | 18:21 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: big boo to kubuntu, yeah. | 18:21 |
| DaSkreech | Well those scripts are simply copied from Ubuntu which are modified from Debian so not sure where the break is | 18:22 |
| harjot | d | 18:23 |
| harjot | hello | 18:23 |
| harjot | can i have help plz | 18:23 |
| mefisto_ | try4ce: some machines will let you hit F8 on startup which will bring up a window that lets you select the boot device. you could try that. (hit F8 repeatedly before boot process starts) | 18:23 |

| try4ce | Hmm sounds worth a try. I didn't see that option listed but I can try. | 18:24 |
| DaSkreech | Lynoure: When does the Alternate Cd break? | 18:24 |
| DaSkreech | gambas is like basic I think | 18:24 |
| mefisto_ | try4ce: have you tried other boot CDs? eg kubuntu liveCD? | 18:24 |
| DaSkreech | So you should be able to use any Qbasic tutorial and write in gambas | 18:24 |
| harjot | i know i got it but how do u launch an app from it? | 18:24 |
| DaSkreech | !info gambas | 18:25 |

| try4ce | I haven't tried yet. I've got some other Linux discs I could try. | 18:25 |
| DaSkreech | ha | 18:25 |
| DaSkreech | harjot: Compile i think | 18:25 |
| harjot | ??????????? | 18:25 |
| DaSkreech | Then run the reslting executable file | 18:25 |
| DaSkreech | harjot: #gambas might help | 18:25 |
| try4ce | Thanks for the advice, I'll be back if I still can't get it... | 18:25 |

| harjot | by the way im on hardy | 18:26 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: it says at the point when it's detecting network hardware that it cannot find any. | 18:27 |
| Walzmyn | Interesting, i just joined the room because i'm having trouble installing gambas. | 18:27 |
| DaSkreech | Walzmyn: try gambas2 | 18:27 |
| harjot | ive installed gambas 2 from the synaptic | 18:27 |
| === solebum is now known as shadeslayer | ||
| Walzmyn | DaSkreech, was. Adept is telling me the install is broken, how do i get it to gimme more information about WHY? | 18:28 |
| DaSkreech | Adept is a little funky in Ibex | 18:28 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: so I could install it, but then end up without network... maybe different kernel in those two. In that case could be as easy as getting a newer kernel on a stick. | 18:28 |
| Walzmyn | DaSkreech, i'm on 8.04 | 18:28 |
| DaSkreech | try sudo apt-get -f install from the command line | 18:28 |
| DaSkreech | Close adept first | 18:28 |
| DaSkreech | Lynoure: possibly but more likely it's modules | 18:28 |
| harjot | Walzmyn: You should type sudo apt-get install gambas2 | 18:29 |
| harjot | how do i make MY PROGRAM launch another program? | 18:30 |
| Lynoure | DaSkreech: those come in the kernel .deb too, me thinks. | 18:30 |
| DaSkreech | harjot: That's a language question I'd hope that basic has a System() call | 18:30 |
| DaSkreech | Lynoure: Good point :) | 18:30 |
| harjot | so what do i type? | 18:31 |
| Walzmyn | wow, there's a bunch of missing dependicies | 18:31 |
| Walzmyn | so, why would i be experiencing broken dependencies when no one else is? | 18:34 |

| syockit | Ahh paolo_'s gone! i wanted to tell him /usr/share/pixmaps ! | 18:49 |

| === vance is now known as countryfolks69 | ||

| === ubuntu is now known as ulysses__ | ||
| leo_rockway | is there any replacement for http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu/dists/hardy/ ? I want to install KDE4.2RC but Hardy's packages are empty | 18:58 |
| stnormal | I tried booting into the recovery mode, but I can't reinstall kubuntu-desktop because there's no internet access | 18:58 |
| syockit | next time someone could try developing package manager which downloads specific packages from a repo. That'll introduce dependency hells! | 18:59 |
| stnormal | any ideas for how I could get to a terminal through the regular boot sequence, or get internet access in the recovery mode? | 19:00 |
| syockit | leo_rockway: hardy's far too old for that. maintenance is a pain in the /// | 19:00 |
| leo_rockway | syockit: so I take it there won't be a backport of 4.2 final? | 19:00 |
| beth_ | I want to pull a newer kernel, so I enabled the prerelease sources and updated, I see it now when I search, but I don't know all the different components I'd need to pull in to get a working kernel, is there a virtual package to make this easier? | 19:01 |
| syockit | stnormal: Depends on method of connection. You can boot as single user mode and select command prompt (it's usually the second line during grub) | 19:01 |
| syockit | stnormal: if it's wifi, you'll have to know the command line for wifi managers | 19:02 |
| stnormal | the second line during grub is "recovery mode", and I don't know the command line to get my internet connection to work | 19:02 |
| stnormal | it's not wifi | 19:02 |
| DaSkreech | stnormal: at grub press e twice then at the end type single then press enter then b | 19:03 |

| syockit | stnormal: hmm. do you have live CD? | 19:03 |
| DaSkreech | beth_: linux-image | 19:03 |
| saran | hi | 19:03 |
| stnormal | I do have the live CD | 19:03 |
| beth_ | DaSkreech thanks | 19:04 |
| syockit | stnormal: if you do, you can chroot and repair packages | 19:04 |
| syockit | live CD is slow tho | 19:04 |
| stnormal | anyhow, I can get to the kubuntu log-in screen | 19:04 |
| syockit | I use live usb | 19:04 |
| syockit | stnormal: and login fails? | 19:04 |
| stnormal | will one of the session types/menu options get me to a prompt? | 19:04 |
| stnormal | no, the GUI is hosed | 19:04 |
| stnormal | nothing gets rendered right | 19:04 |
| DaSkreech | stnormal: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 19:05 |
| beth_ | DaSkreech: it says the following packages are broken linux-generic, it doesn't list modules either | 19:05 |

| altrortla | heiiii buddies.... i'm looking for handicap people hardware and software solution any tips? | 19:05 |
| stnormal | as soon as I can get to a prompt with internet access, I'm just going to reinstall kubuntu-desktop and it's dependencies | 19:05 |
| syockit | stnormal: that's more of xorg trouble. yup, you should repair them packages. but no internet, you say? | 19:05 |
| syockit | stnormal: can you see what ifconfig does | 19:06 |
| stnormal | uhh, if I get back to the recovery console | 19:06 |
| stnormal | let me try a few things first | 19:06 |
| stnormal | nice, the login screen had an option for console login, i should be fine | 19:06 |
| DaSkreech | :-) | 19:07 |
| DaSkreech | stnormal: or failsafe | 19:07 |
| DaSkreech | it opens X and a xterm | 19:07 |
| DaSkreech | You will have to put kwin& as the first command but you should be ok after that | 19:07 |
| syockit | okay, xorg's still safe then | 19:07 |
| stnormal | yeah... the long version of my problem is that I've got a really poorly designed piece of scientific software that I'm trying to get to work (Gaussview), and I noticed that the MesaGL library it uses is the software one | 19:08 |
| syockit | altrortla: They go by the name "Accessibilites" | 19:08 |
| syockit | altrortla: look for it in System Settings | 19:08 |
| stnormal | so I figured I'd remove the hardware ones to see if that made it work right, but that required removing kubuntu-desktop | 19:09 |
| stnormal | and that hosed things | 19:09 |
| stnormal | is there a way to run ubuntu without anything (KDE/Gnome) over X server? | 19:10 |
| syockit | stnormal: yes, you can run with just window managers, and lots of terminals | 19:10 |
| DaSkreech | yes | 19:10 |
| stnormal | so how would I go from kubuntu to that? | 19:11 |
| stnormal | what would I have to remove/disable? | 19:11 |
| DaSkreech | install ubuntu-server and don't install *-desktop packages | 19:11 |
| DaSkreech | see #fluxbuntu | 19:11 |
| DaSkreech | !puregnome | 19:11 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 ; sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 ; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » | 19:11 |
| stnormal | k | 19:12 |
| stnormal | thanks | 19:12 |
| altrortla | syockit: thanks for tips... but i'm looking for some complex solution... this man have more problem (he do not have hands abilities, he can use only eyes) | 19:12 |
| syockit | altrortla: sorry, I didn't see the hardware part | 19:13 |
| csc_ | is there a way to not be prompted for installing updates of specific packages only ? i have an updater daemon running on the desktop but i dont want to unselect the packages i modified for my needs each time | 19:14 |

| syockit | csc_: or I got the wrong person | 19:17 |
| DaSkreech | csc_: aptitude can pin packages | 19:17 |
| syockit | csc_: for now, you can only tell package manager to hold | 19:18 |
| syockit | csc_: aptitude uses a different state file. U need to use dpkg | 19:18 |
| syockit | csc_: for easy task, use either synaptic or adept | 19:18 |

| syockit | leo_rockway: okay I'll try | 19:43 |
| tarmath | dtchen: it's not started by default... like right now... and I dont have any sound in flash | 19:43 |
| tarmath | I thought Id try my luck with it since it's supposed to be supported starting flash 10... | 19:43 |
| leo_rockway | if it does then maybe you can make a script out of it or smth | 19:43 |
| dtchen | tarmath: you don't need pulseaudio to get audible sound with Flash | 19:44 |
| dcx | But I can hear everthing else except for what's pn my internet browser | 19:44 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: It goes off, but the backlight is still on. | 19:44 |
| dtchen | tarmath: do you actually use anything specific to pulseaudio? | 19:44 |
| tarmath | dtchen: I dont use pulseaudio, I just tried with it... | 19:44 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: that command should've turned your backlight off. There's your problem. | 19:44 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: acpi uses xset dpms to turn off the backlight | 19:45 |
| dtchen | tarmath: ok, first, make sure you remove the pulseaudio packages | 19:45 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: Yes? Oh, now I now the problem, that is good :) What can I do? Report a bug? | 19:45 |
| dtchen | tarmath: at the very least, remove the pulseaudio package itself | 19:45 |
| syockit | KDesk: somethings wrong with dpms then | 19:45 |
| tarmath | dtchen: ok doing that now... | 19:45 |
| syockit | KDesk: can you control brightness? | 19:45 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: yeah, I'd say reporting a bug is a good idea. That's not the expected behaviour at all. | 19:45 |
| KDesk | syockit: only from the monitor, not from the OS | 19:46 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: where should I report that, launchpad? | 19:46 |
| carlosmorais | i need a small help | 19:47 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: Launchpad, yes | 19:47 |
| dtchen | tarmath: after you've removed it, restart your web browser. | 19:47 |
| dtchen | tarmath: i presume you're using konqueror? | 19:47 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: provide as much information as you can when filing the bug report | 19:47 |
| tarmath | dtchen: firefox in fact... | 19:47 |
| dtchen | tarmath: ok, then you'll need to restart all firefox instances | 19:47 |
| syockit | gtg | 19:47 |
| dtchen | tarmath: also, make sure you only have *one* Flash plugin instance installed | 19:48 |
| dtchen | tarmath: check with about:plugins | 19:48 |
| tarmath | dtchen: ok | 19:48 |
| tarmath | dtchen: restarting firefox.. | 19:48 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: do you know witch package is te affected? acpi, xset? dpms? | 19:48 |
| dcx | dtchen: I need to do the same as tarmath. How do I remove pulseaudio packages? | 19:48 |
| di | подскажите у менятормозит видео что делать? | 19:49 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: The monitor goes off after 2s but goes afer 1s more on again (only the backlight) | 19:49 |
| tarmath | dcx: sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio paman padevchooser paprefs pavucontrol pavumeter | 19:49 |
| KDesk | ru @ di | 19:49 |
| tarmath | dtchen: looks good, only one flashplayer | 19:49 |
| dcx | Tarmath: Thank you. | 19:49 |
| KDesk | !ru @ di | 19:49 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ru @ di | 19:49 |
| KDesk | hmm | 19:49 |
| dtchen | tarmath: now, do you have an /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc ? | 19:50 |
| KDesk | !RU @ di | 19:50 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about RU @ di | 19:50 |
| dtchen | tarmath: if so, please pastebin its/their contents | 19:50 |
| Mamarok | !ru | di | 19:50 |
| ubottu | di: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 19:50 |
| tarmath | dtchen: right. gotta delete that one too? | 19:50 |
| KDesk | !RU@di | 19:50 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about RU@di | 19:50 |
| KDesk | !RU | 19:50 |
| Mamarok | KDesk: see above! | 19:50 |
| KDesk | hehe | 19:50 |
| dtchen | tarmath: don't delete it yet; pastebin so i can inspect it | 19:50 |
| di | sps | 19:51 |
| tarmath | dtchen: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/PulseAudio i followed these instructions so you can see exactly whats in the file | 19:51 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: this is old, but it may give you a hint: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/xset-dpms-force-off-doesnt-turn-off-screen-531977/ | 19:51 |
| tarmath | dtchen: i had to create the file there wasn't anything in it before | 19:51 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: the problem has nothing to do with acpi in this case, because acpi just calls the xset dpms command | 19:51 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: ah, ok, thanks for the link, I will look that :) | 19:52 |
| dtchen | tarmath: mv /etc/asound.conf /etc/asound.conf.bak | 19:52 |
| dtchen | tarmath: then restart firefox (again) | 19:53 |
| tarmath | dtchen: done | 19:53 |
| ohhai | Sound input on ASUS W3J laptop somehow doesn't work, even though the output does. Other people on forums claim that input works in their cases. What are the common diagnostics steps here? | 19:54 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: with "sudo vbetool dpms off" it workes but only ones :| | 19:54 |
| dtchen | ohhai: download and run http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh | 19:55 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: you can include that in your bug report then | 19:55 |
| dtchen | ohhai: then tell me the url it generates | 19:55 |
| dtchen | tarmath: is sound audible on a web page w/ Flash? | 19:55 |
| tarmath | dtchen: nope... in fact I am back at the starting point before I tried to solve it with pulseaudio... | 19:56 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: yes. Do you thing the package can be libxcb-dpms0 or I shouldn't fill that? | 19:56 |
| dtchen | tarmath: ok. please open a Konsole and tell me if sound is audible with `speaker-test -c2' | 19:57 |
| dtchen | tarmath: you can stop speaker-test by interrupting it (ctrl+c) | 19:57 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: I'm not sure, but if you select the wrong package someone else can edit it later on | 19:57 |
| ohhai | dtchen: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=67cc56fa77815a09b1c515abc2160ffab4ff6469 | 19:57 |
| tarmath | dtchen: nope nothing... | 19:58 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: ah, ok, thanks. | 19:58 |
| dtchen | tarmath: ok, let's check volumes. please download http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh, save it to your Desktop, and run it in a Konsole with `bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh', then tell me the url it generates | 19:58 |
| dtchen | ohhai: sec | 19:59 |
| di | kubuntu 8.10 gma 950 drivers | 20:00 |
| tarmath | dtchen: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=a0a5250f3ce2080fee0ee7892ea73a064adb3435 | 20:01 |
| dtchen | ohhai: looks like your mic boost and capture mixer controls aren't raised. in a Konsole, try: amixer -Dhw:0 set 'Mic Boost',0 100% && amixer -Dhw:0 set 'Capture',0 cap && amixer -Dhw:0 set 'Capture',0 100% | 20:01 |
| dtchen | ohhai: (yes, you can also accomplish the above via KMix, but it takes more fiddling. i prefer the cli.) | 20:02 |
| ohhai | dtchen: Me too. =) | 20:03 |
| kaminix | Why are people working on getting uim 1.5.3 into jaunty when 1.5.5 is the latest stable release? It was even published after 1.5.4 was released. :s | 20:03 |
| KDesk | Another question... I have an ipod and music in ogg, so I transforme that to aac with soundkonverter, but when I want to tranfer them with amarok, it says "tracks not playable in media device" How can I transfer those aac audio files? | 20:04 |
| ohhai | dtchen: Any more reasonable way to test input than Audacity? | 20:04 |
| dtchen | kaminix: lack of manpower/other resources, more than likely | 20:04 |
| dtchen | kaminix: feel free to chip in! =) | 20:04 |
| dtchen | ohhai: try arecord | 20:04 |
| dtchen | tarmath: sec | 20:04 |
| tarmath | dtchen: hmm sound used to work in other apps through phonon but now its all gone... | 20:05 |
| dtchen | tarmath: ah, your 'Master' and 'PCM' mixer controls are too low. in fact, the latter is set at zero. | 20:05 |
| dcx | Tarmath, dtchen: Thank you. | 20:06 |
| dcx | ciao | 20:06 |
| dtchen | tarmath: in a konsole, try: amixer -Dhw:0 set 'Master',0 80% && amixer -Dhw:0 set 'PCM',0 80% | 20:06 |
| WishingMaster | what is the command to install latest kde and what is the command to upgrade currently installed kernel? | 20:06 |
| leo_rockway | KDesk: I cannot answer your question, but I could suggest that you look at rockbox | 20:06 |
| dcx | my sound works now on my internet browser. | 20:06 |
| ohhai | dtchen: Same result. =( | 20:07 |
| kaminix | dtchen: I would, except I don't really know how to package stuff. =/ | 20:07 |
| KDesk | leo_rockway: Rockbox doesn't support my ipod nano 4th G :( But thanks anyway | 20:07 |
| dtchen | tarmath: you might also want: amixer -Dhw:0 set 'Surround',0 80% && amixer -Dhw:0 set 'Center',0 80% && amixer -Dhw:0 set 'LFE',0 80% && amixer -Dhw:0 set 'Side',0 80% | 20:07 |
| WishingMaster | what is the command to install latest kde and what is the command to upgrade currently installed kernel? | 20:07 |
| dtchen | kaminix: we can help you with that; see #ubuntu-motu | 20:08 |
| tarmath | dtchen: sound back in youtube... ! | 20:08 |
| kaminix | I'll look into it when things calm down at university. :) Thanks. :) | 20:08 |
| WishingMaster | what is the command to install latest kde and what is the command to upgrade currently installed kernel? | 20:09 |
| tarmath | dtchen: but amarok and dragonplayer keep crashing when they're trying to play music... | 20:09 |
| leo_rockway | !repeat | WishingMaster | 20:09 |
| ubottu | WishingMaster: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com http://wiki.ubuntu.com http://www.ubuntuforums.org or http://www.kubuntuforums.net while you wait. Also see !patience | 20:09 |
| WishingMaster | leo_rockway, do u want me repeat my ques? | 20:10 |
| ohhai | dtchen: Save for Volume, what other approaches might one take? | 20:10 |
| leo_rockway | WishingMaster: no, exactly the opposite | 20:10 |
| WishingMaster | ok | 20:10 |
| dtchen | ohhai: let me check the source code; give me a few minutes | 20:10 |
| ohhai | dtchen: (I'm confident in mic's integrity, tested it under Windows) | 20:10 |
| leo_rockway | WishingMaster: just read what ubottu told you | 20:11 |
| WishingMaster | ok | 20:11 |
| dtchen | tarmath: try restarting KDE (just log out and back in) | 20:11 |
| tarmath | dtchen: ook | 20:12 |

| harjot | no i have kubuntu but i want a program on it to work for windows | 21:28 |
| Stalker72 | I don't think that's possible | 21:28 |
| shadeslayer | yeah,i thought you meant that | 21:28 |
| Stalker72 | unlike there's a Windows port for it | 21:28 |
| shadeslayer | :P | 21:28 |
| harjot | i have heard of cygwin | 21:28 |
| shadeslayer | !cygwin | 21:29 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about cygwin | 21:29 |
| shadeslayer | nothing | 21:29 |
| harjot | but dont no how to use it | 21:29 |
| SlimeyPete | cygwin includes quite a lot of unix ports | 21:29 |
| SlimeyPete | harjot: just download it and run it under Windows | 21:29 |
| SlimeyPete | it includes a helpful installer | 21:29 |
| SlimeyPete | but it doesn't run all linux apps - just the ones which have been ported by the cygwin project | 21:29 |
| harjot | but if i want it to be a program that you just click and it loads my program under cygwin | 21:29 |
| SlimeyPete | cygwin doesn't work like that. | 21:30 |
| stdin | some KDE apps work in windows | 21:30 |
| SlimeyPete | the program must be re-compiled from source, and possibly altered to use the cygwin libraries. | 21:30 |

| mefisto__ | psyco: don't know if you can | 23:12 |
| psyco | lol alright, maybe there is a different cursor theme | 23:12 |

| Tinason | kde 4.2 is released tomorrow. how long b4 it hits repositories? | 23:13 |
| caustin | Anyone running on the kubuntu-experimental stuff? | 23:13 |
| Hiryu | I thought 4.2 was already out... shows what I know | 23:13 |
| caustin | Hiryu: It was 4.2rc1 | 23:14 |
| Hiryu | ah | 23:14 |
| wesley_ | jammen33 it started like this, kde did hang, harddrive was making strange sounds, few reboots, but didnt went any better | 23:15 |
| wesley_ | So now it does thick there loads nonthing, hd 1 month old | 23:15 |
| surgy | i just instyalled a printer and kubuntu found the driver, its and epson stylus 4450 with a flatbed scanenr made on. what software can i use to scan images? | 23:16 |
| surgy | ? | 23:16 |
| wesley_ | i wonder why my usb boot gives boot errors | 23:17 |
| surgy | anyone? | 23:19 |
| leo_rockway | surgy: xsane | 23:19 |
| leo_rockway | surgy: kooka (it's KDE3) | 23:19 |
| surgy | i have kooka | 23:20 |
| surgy | and when i try to "select scan device" it does absolutely nothing | 23:20 |
| surgy | and xsane doesnt pick anything up at all... | 23:20 |
| leo_rockway | then drivers for the scanner are not installed | 23:21 |
| Tinason | kde 4.2 is released tomorrow. how long b4 it hits repositories? | 23:22 |
| surgy | umm then how do i set up the drivers for the scanner? and why would there be different drivers for ther printer and scanner? | 23:22 |
| aeonoris | I can't find a (windows) driver for my wireless card, because I can't figure out what card it IS (it doesn't have any company brands on it). So now, since Kubuntu's internet works, I'm trying to find out a way to tell what the card is with Kubuntu. Is there one? | 23:23 |
| surgy | ok well this is incredibly gay, why would there be a printer driver and no scanner driver for a scanner/printer.... | 23:24 |
| aeonoris | Perhaps it's a generic printer driver that doesn't have scanner support...? | 23:25 |
| surgy | no | 23:25 |
| surgy | kubuntu reported that it found the driver for the "Epson Stylus CX4450" which is exactly what my printer says on the top | 23:25 |
| aeonoris | Hum. | 23:26 |
| surgy | yeah fuck this | 23:28 |
| surgy | looks like micro soft wins again | 23:28 |
| surgy | thnx guys | 23:28 |
| oobe | surgy, try running xsane with sudo | 23:28 |
| leo_rockway | troll | 23:28 |
| leo_rockway | aeonoris: lspci | 23:28 |
| surgy | oobe: no luck | 23:28 |
| surgy | and i needed the scanner ten minutes ago | 23:29 |
| oobe | that guy was a doofus | 23:29 |
| aeonoris | leo_rockway, thanks a lot! I was trying to figure out this card for over an hour... | 23:29 |
| leo_rockway | oobe: yeah, I won't waste my time helping people like him | 23:30 |
| leo_rockway | aeonoris: ls is a *nix command that lists | 23:30 |
| leo_rockway | aeonoris: so you have ls (which is like DOS' dir) and then you have lsusb, lspci, lshw, lsmod, etc | 23:31 |
| aeonoris | leo_rockway, nice trick, I'll remember it, thanks. | 23:32 |
| * kaddi is happy because she managed to solve the problem, for which she was going to ask for advice, on her own :D | 23:33 | |
| SlimeyPete | always a good feeling :) | 23:33 |
| seb_ | Hi guys, | 23:34 |
| kaddi | just out of curiosity though: is there a command that will empty the cache of aptitude? | 23:34 |
| leo_rockway | aeonoris: yeah, no prob... | 23:34 |
| leo_rockway | kaddi: \o/ | 23:34 |
| SlimeyPete | kaddi: aptitude clean | 23:34 |
| oobe | aeonoris, try this lspci -vv | grep Network | 23:34 |
| seb_ | does anybody know how to show back the Knetworkmanager applet in the right down corner? | 23:34 |
| oobe | if you have a pci wifi that is | 23:35 |
| kaddi | SlimeyPete: thanks :) Good to know :) | 23:36 |
| seb_ | hello, thet's my first time here, so i don't know howitworks | 23:36 |
| oobe | seb_, are you using kde4 or kde3 | 23:36 |
| seb_ | kde3 | 23:37 |
| seb_ | i mae a bad control yesterday and since that point I have no applet: battery, network, kmix.all gone... | 23:37 |
| leo_rockway | seb_: alt + f2 and run knetworkmanager | 23:37 |
| seb_ | that's done | 23:38 |
| leo_rockway | oh, it seems that your whole systray is gone | 23:38 |
| oobe | right click ur taskbar and click add applet to pannel | 23:39 |
| seb_ | I have reinstalled (since one hour) Kthinbat, it works for the battery, but now I'm stuck searching what was my error | 23:39 |
| oobe | then search for systray | 23:39 |
| oobe | then add it | 23:39 |
| seb_ | ok I'm doing | 23:39 |
| seb_ | I can not find systray | 23:40 |
| oobe | sorry its system tray | 23:41 |
| oobe | just type system | 23:42 |
| seb_ | ok | 23:42 |
| seb_ | i just have (the menu is in french cause I am) system menu, system monitoring and print system | 23:43 |
| oobe | well that may not be the problem then | 23:46 |
| seb_ | ok, thank you I will try to solve that after. Thank you again | 23:48 |
