| the_hammer | yeah and no luck | 00:02 |
| the_hammer | last time i used linux there was a manager could point/click and go called symatec or something | 00:03 |

| komuta | hi | 00:15 |
| the_hammer | wish can have my plain desktop back | 00:15 |
| komuta | there seems to be a problem with kde-devel dependencie on the last package update (for 4.2 final I think) | 00:16 |
| komuta | E: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu/pool/main/p/pcre3/libpcrecpp0_7.8-2ubuntu1~intrepid1~ppa1_i386.deb: Size mismatch | 00:16 |
| komuta | does anyone know how I can contact the package maintainer ? | 00:16 |
| Dragnslcr | the_hammer- add a Folder View widget to your desktop, and point it to /home/yourusername/Desktop | 00:16 |
| mefisto__ | the_hammer: if you have upgraded to kde 4.2 you could also change the desktop to folder view mode | 00:18 |
| Dragnslcr | the_hammer- I created a second panel on the left side of the desktop, set it to auto-hide, and put a folder view there that points to ~/Desktop | 00:18 |
| Dragnslcr | Personally, I like that a lot better than needing to do something like minimize windows | 00:18 |
| the_hammer | ok | 00:19 |
| kernco | I had the nvidia 177 driver activated through the restricted drivers manager. I wanted to upgrade to the 180 driver, so I downloaded it from nvidia and ran their install script. That didn't work, and now I can't even get back to the 177 driver. X will only start with vesa. How can I fix this? | 00:28 |

| niteye | hello there | 00:38 |
| cbwcjw | astromme: can you test something for me | 00:38 |
| cbwcjw | !hi | niteye | 00:38 |
| ubottu | niteye: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 00:38 |
| kernco | astromme: Yes, it doesn't work if I enable the 177 driver again that way | 00:38 |
| astromme | cbwcjw: What's up? | 00:38 |
| niteye | i couldnt help but notice that since KDE4, the session is no longer locked when waking up from a suspend | 00:38 |
| niteye | how do i resolve this | 00:38 |
| astromme | kernco: even if you uninstall the 177 driver, restart, enable via hardware drivers, restart? | 00:39 |
| cbwcjw | astromme: run "kdesudo dolphin" | 00:39 |
| kernco | I'll try that | 00:39 |
| astromme | works for me, why? | 00:39 |
| mefisto__ | astromme: I think the problem is there are 2 nvidia proprietary drivers installed at the same time | 00:39 |
| astromme | cbwcjw: what in specific am I looking for? | 00:39 |
| niteye | also, the translucent effect is horribly slow even on my geforce 9600 GT, and the restricted nvidea driver is installed | 00:40 |
| astromme | mefisto__: That shouldn't be an issue though... one or the other would be used over vesa, no? | 00:40 |
| Tom_Servo | kemco: I missed your question, but latest stable nvidia drivers are 180 now | 00:40 |
| cbwcjw | astromme: for some of us it doesnt work it gives a wierd error: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165268 | 00:41 |
| mefisto__ | astromme: I think installing 2 would make a mess of both drivers | 00:41 |
| kernco | Tom_Servo: My problem is I had the 177 drivers installed through the restricted drivers manager, then I tried to install the 180 driver using the installer from nvidia, and that messed everything up. Now I can't get back to any working nvidia driver. | 00:41 |
| niteye | the translucent window being slow isnt catastrphal , but what i'd like to fix first is that when i wake up my computer from suspend (either RAM or disk), the session isnt locked | 00:41 |
| Tom_Servo | I see. I haven't much luck with any version yet. I'm not trying again until I start using KDE 4.2 | 00:43 |
| mefisto__ | kernco: find how the install script removes the downloaded driver, then remove the ubuntu-provided restricted one http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481887 then try the install script again | 00:44 |
| Tom_Servo | Have you tried going into recovery mode to and select repair broken xorg config file, then try again? | 00:45 |
| sumone | so what's wrong with flash10? | 00:45 |

| niteye | actually i do still live with my parents, which is why i really need to find out why my session isnt locked after resuming from suspend to disk/ram | 00:47 |
| sumone | niteye: with my all honesty I don't know what you are reffering to | 00:47 |
| astromme | niteye: you should be able to adjust it in system settings... lets see, where | 00:47 |
| niteye | i've looked around but no luck yet | 00:47 |

| mefisto__ | sumone: how did you install it? | 00:48 |

| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 00:48 |
| astromme | niteye: System Settings -> Advanced -> Power Management. you need powerdevil. If you have guidance it might be in guidance in your systray | 00:49 |
| niteye | oh, neat, i completely missed the "advanced" tab :s | 00:49 |
| mefisto__ | sumone: in firefox, go to about:plugins and see if you have shockwave player listed. there should be only one listed also | 00:50 |
| mefisto__ | *shockwave flash | 00:50 |
| * astromme is leaving for a moment, this time for real | 00:52 | |
| kernco | ok, I fixed my nvidia problem! Thanks all | 00:52 |
| mefisto__ | kernco: what did you do? | 00:52 |
| kernco | I did "sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-glx* && sudo apt-get autoremove", rebooted, then ran the nvidia installer for the 180 driver | 00:53 |

| Dr_willis | khalidmian, perhaps. I never use adept - i cant stand its interface. So im not even sure where it caches stuff at | 03:16 |
| syockit | khalidmian: adept is somewhat weird. You may need to toggle the flags (the three icons on the first line) to see things | 03:16 |
| syockit | khalidmian: toggle off the installed item flag | 03:16 |

| khalidmian | syockit: i tried with with no avail some one gave to the command allowing me to fix the issue i cant for the live of me remember it | 03:17 |

| khalidmian | i think one can do that by sudo apt-get amarok-kde4 | 03:32 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: Im bored, so Im updating all the KDE wikipedia articles with newer pictures. ahaha. | 03:32 |
| khalidmian | or am i wrong | 03:32 |

| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: I like them, but I dont do big-time multitasking on my laptop, so I keep 2 desktops with the slide effect | 03:59 |

| cjae_ | sounds dumb | 05:27 |
| sandGorgon | cjae_: imagine the number of people pulling in updates through apt... the bandwidth requirements can be halved and quartered if we can use apt on a bittorrent protocol | 05:28 |

| cjae_ | but torrents sometimes go slow too like when ppl ask the above questions | 05:30 |
| cjae_ | can I just leech all day everyday | 05:30 |
| sandGorgon | usually, if apt is used with torrent, there will be a couple of dedicated seeders - which are the same sites that you now directly download from | 05:31 |
| cjae_ | unless you live in the USA I cannot see why you would want to do that, $200,000 dollar fine = not cool | 05:31 |

| gmathews | sandGorgon: It is not on adept nor synaptic | 05:35 |

| etfb | I notice the new Adept in KDE4 doesn't have a scrollable history, just a single label that gets updated as it installs each component. Isn't that a bit, you know, retarded? Who made that decision? | 06:34 |
| etfb | And where are the icons in the Adept browse list? They don't even have one for Firefox! | 06:37 |
| beachsurfin | the multiple Adepts confuse me | 06:38 |
| stdin | if you have a support question, ask it. | 06:38 |
| beachsurfin | okay, which adept do you use to search for new software? | 06:38 |
| beachsurfin | adept installer or manager? | 06:38 |
| stdin | manager | 06:38 |
| beachsurfin | what's the diff between the two? | 06:39 |
| etfb | It's a hell of a support question: has there been some kind of disaster among the KDE 4 developers that means there's no testing being done of the UI stuff before they release it? I want to know if I should continue to use 8.10 or go back to 8.04 based on that. | 06:39 |
| stdin | installer only shoes common application. manager lets you manage all software packages | 06:39 |
| stdin | etfb: adept is not KDE | 06:40 |
| beachsurfin | another question high on importance: is there a way to recall or bookmark songs that have streamed in amarok? i've rated some of the songs playing from a radio station but i don't know how to recall them.. | 06:40 |
| etfb | stdin: And yet, coincidentally, the Adept in KDE4 is not the Adept in KDE3. The KDE3 one isn't broken, for a start. | 06:41 |
| stdin | etfb: actually, they are both broken | 06:41 |
| stdin | but adept is not part of KDE | 06:41 |
| etfb | stdin: If the primary system for installing and updating all software in KDE isn't part of KDE, what is? | 06:41 |
| etfb | Is it the Kubuntu maintainers I should be bitching about then? | 06:42 |
| stdin | the closest thing in KDE is KPackage manager. and you should be bitching to anyone as adept is being scrapped | 06:42 |
| hendershot | if your using a kde desktop the chances are that adept is a KDE program | 06:43 |
| etfb | beachsurfin: When I stream songs from internet radio stations, Amarok considers the entire station to be one "song"... that conveniently changes its name every 3 minutes or so. | 06:43 |
| hendershot | if not then use synaptic | 06:43 |
| beachsurfin | etfb: argh, i really enjoyed those tracks | 06:43 |
| etfb | beachsurfin: Now that you mention it, there must be some app that connects to streams and gives better than minimal functionality. | 06:44 |
| beachsurfin | amarok2 is supposed to have support for some music server sharing service (don't know the name right now).. you can stream songs and share playlists w/ others easily using the program.. anyway.. maybe that's something to check out when i figure out the name | 06:46 |
| stdin | beachsurfin: try asking in #amarok | 06:46 |
| etfb | Right. Installed KDE4.2. Let's see if it's less stupid. I had three days of 4.1 and I was ready to upgrade to AmigaOS. | 06:47 |
| beachsurfin | stdin: i have | 06:47 |
| beachsurfin | for 2-3 days now | 06:47 |
| beachsurfin | nothing | 06:47 |
| beachsurfin | not even a response | 06:47 |
| stdin | beachsurfin: try the forum then http://amarok.kde.org/forum/ | 06:48 |

| cbwcjw | maco: i had a good theme earlier let me find it | 07:01 |
| maco | i have it installed | 07:01 |
| cbwcjw | http://forum.kde.org/how-to-integrate-firefox-into-kde-t-17786.html | 07:01 |
| stdin | maco: you should be able to configure that from system settings -> appearance -> GTK Styles and Fonts | 07:02 |
| cbwcjw | sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-qtcurve that theme integrates well | 07:02 |
| maco | stdin: i looked in there, but no matter what i set, the gtk apps aren't changing | 07:03 |
| maco | for some reason, my apostrophe key keeps typing backticks unless i hit altgr with it as well...will have to figure out which kbd layout is right | 07:03 |
| maco | does it make a difference if i have gtk-qt-engine or gtk-qt-engine-kde4? | 07:04 |
| stdin | gtk-qt-engine-kde4 just installs gtk-qt-engine | 07:04 |
| cbwcjw | maco: im not sure. | 07:04 |
| maco | ok, i figured it was a transitional package | 07:04 |
| cbwcjw | maco: I personally use qtcurve | 07:08 |
| maco | cbwcjw: thanks, that webpage helped. the qtcurve one works | 07:08 |
| cbwcjw | maco: awesome. | 07:08 |
| maco | OH wait | 07:11 |
| maco | it only affects gtk apps that weren't opened yet when the gtk theme was set | 07:12 |
| stdin | yeah, you need to restart all GTK apps | 07:12 |
| maco | so what actually happened is that i started pidgin after setting a gtk theme, while my terminators were open before i set the gtk theme | 07:12 |
| stdin | and possibly logout/in | 07:12 |
| maco | logout wasnt needed, just have to quit the apps and reopen them | 07:13 |
| maco | though you have to do that each time the theme is changed, which makes it a little annoying to test how it looks | 07:13 |
| etfb | Just upgraded to KDE4.2 and Oh. My. Gods. It's so much better it's like a new OS. Anyone discovering that Kubuntu 8.10 is unusable? Upgrade to KDE4.2. It's suddenly like a real computer again. | 07:13 |
| maco | haha | 07:14 |
| maco | yeah, im using 4.2 now and its much nicer than hardy's kde4 (sorta skipped intrepid) | 07:14 |
| maco | i might actually switch off of gnome...still a little rough around the edges (try removing the window list plasmoid and the system tray and clock get HUGE) but usable | 07:15 |
| maco | anyway, gotta restart the terminal im in in order to have scrollbars | 07:15 |

| etfb | KDE4.2 question: someone mentioned a while ago a way to get rid of that bloody "cashew" on the top left of the screen. It annoys me; how do I kill it? | 07:42 |
| Mamarok | nice, now he is trolling in #edubuntu :( | 07:42 |
| spawn57 | etfb: I wish I could get rid of that thing too .. | 07:43 |
| SilentDis | i ended up going to 4.2 out of experimental, the cashew is a lot lighter now... not sure if it's just me but it's a lot less visible, only there when you need it. | 07:44 |
| etfb | SilentDis: So humour a KDE4 newbie here: when DO you "need" it? | 07:44 |
| SilentDis | etfb: i run with my widgets locked. while duplicate functionality from right-click, i do use it to unlock them and move them around from time to time. | 07:45 |
| etfb | Wait, no, cancel that. The ability to add new themes from Teh Intarwobs. Worth the price of admission! Cool! | 07:45 |

| Strog_ | hi | 07:49 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: no i'm not. oh, the greeting, not my state. hello! :D | 07:50 |
| Strog_ | i want to install kubuntu 8.04 on an elder laptop, and when i come to the main menu with all the GUI, the laptop's mouse and keyboard doesn't respond to it. and when i insert an elder version of kubuntu everything works fine | 07:51 |
| Strog_ | y? | 07:51 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: 'elder'? do you mean an older computer? | 07:52 |
| Strog_ | older laptop | 07:52 |
| Strog_ | thanks | 07:52 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: could you give us a basic rundown of the system's configuration? memory, processor, drive space, vid card type of thing? | 07:53 |
| Strog_ | cpu is a p4 | 07:53 |
| Strog_ | ram 256mb | 07:53 |
| Strog_ | no interesting graphic card | 07:54 |
| Strog_ | HD: 60GB | 07:54 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: ahhh, i believe you're a bit light on memory. iirc, 8.10 needs 512mb to run off the CD, 256 when installed. could someone correct me if i'm wrong on that? | 07:54 |
| Strog_ | im using 8.04 | 07:55 |
| Strog_ | or does ubuntu use less ram? | 07:55 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: xubuntu is the 'light' version that uses very little ram... you can run off a hard drive with 256mb if i'm not mistaken, as well (use the alternate CD to install). i'm checking right now... | 07:56 |
| Strog_ | ok | 07:57 |
| etfb | Strog_: I installed xubuntu on a slow old PC for my 10-year-old daughter. It was usable, but I gave her a bit more RAM and the latest Kubuntu and she was happier. | 07:57 |
| Dr_willis | Been playing with that LXDE desktop also. lighter then xubuntu.. but i dont care much for it. | 07:57 |
| Dr_willis | xfce is nice in ways.. annoying in nothers | 07:57 |
| Strog_ | etfb: what is the ram size that you had before and after? | 07:57 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 07:58 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: basically, 700mhz processor, 384mb ram, and 8gb disk space will be your 'baseline'. you should be able to get the machine working on less ram, but you'll need to use the alternate cd to do the install | 07:59 |
| Strog_ | well the laptop meets all the requirements | 07:59 |
| Strog_ | ok | 07:59 |
| Strog_ | unterstood | 07:59 |
| etfb | etfb: No idea - too long ago. Less than a gigabyte, certainly. It was a Pentium II, I think | 07:59 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: you said before you have 256mb ram. i'm betting the LiveCD needs to load too much into memory to get the whole thing going. | 08:00 |
| etfb | Strog_: That's a good point. Live CDs use a gigabyte for a RAM disk if they can. | 08:00 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: the Alternate CD would probably suit you better on that, you'll be able to install and use it, albeit a touch slow at times. | 08:00 |
| Strog_ | SilentDis: but how is it for me possible to install an older version of Kubuntu live version? | 08:01 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: i would recommend setting up at least a 2gb swap partition too. I set mine to 5gb (enormous disk and i like to play with virtual box) :) | 08:01 |
| Strog_ | understood | 08:01 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: the whole concept behind ubuntu in general is 'latest greatest all rolled together every 6 months'. i'm assuming parts of said 'latest and greatest' are a bit large now heh | 08:02 |
| Strog_ | ok | 08:02 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: there's the 'bulletproof x windows' and all the desktop effects stuff and network manager and so on and so on and so on... lol | 08:03 |
| Strog_ | understood | 08:04 |
| Dr_willis | 'bulletproof x windows' I thought got shot in the head? :) ya dont hear that mentioned much any more | 08:04 |
| Strog_ | i'm downloading the alternate versions and get back to you later | 08:04 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: did it? i've not kept up on all the new pretty stuff as of late. well, other than 4.2 from experimental that i'm really really liking :) | 08:05 |
| Dr_willis | Yea. if X failed to start a few times - i recall a release or 2 ago.. it would 'go into bullet proof x mode' but to be honest.. it dident ever work prperly for me | 08:05 |
| SilentDis | Strog_: another option is to install 7.10, upgrade to 8.04, then upgrade again to 8.10. not exactly pretty, but it'll work. you'll probably save yourself some time if you do just grab the alt cd lol | 08:06 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: the most i've seen mine do is drop to the standard VESA driver when i was futzing with the nvidia driver :) | 08:07 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: part of it made it in. the xorg.conf is tiny now, i assume that was part of the push with that project. it apparently gathers it all on the fly now. | 08:08 |
| Dr_willis | X auto-configures for hte most part. | 08:08 |
| Dr_willis | works decently well.. for 90% of the people. :) | 08:08 |
| Dr_willis | but that other 10% thats the problem | 08:09 |
| Strog_ | SilentDis: i need to get the images anyway | 08:09 |
| SilentDis | Dr_willis: same boat with network manager for me. it works great... except when i go to customize something >.< | 08:09 |
| Strog_ | btw what is the window manager called from xbuntu? | 08:10 |
| Dr_willis | people expext too much automation with the network settings. :) and now they got it. | 08:10 |
| Dr_willis | xubuntu = xfwm | 08:10 |
| Dr_willis | i think | 08:10 |
| Strog_ | ok | 08:10 |
| SilentDis | i thought the mouse was XFCE? | 08:10 |
| SilentDis | !xubuntu | 08:11 |
| ubottu | Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 08:12 |

| david__ | Hi, I am currently trying to install Kubuntu on my laptop, I have an Acer Aspire 3050, 3gb of RAM, fully updated BIOS and all the necessary things required to properly install and update a computer, however when I select either "Try Kubuntu live on your computer" or "Install Kubuntu" I end up getting a solid black screen with nothing, the same happens to me while running the install in Text Mode | 08:26 |
| david__ | any ideas as to how I can make this work? | 08:27 |
| SilentDis | david__: had this with my GF's machine.... have you tried pressing and holding a key during the boot, such as the down arrow? not sure why that works, but it did on her computer. | 08:27 |
| david__ | during the boot of the BIOS? | 08:27 |
| SilentDis | david__: during the boot off the liveCD | 08:27 |
| david__ | let me try that | 08:28 |
| SilentDis | david__: she also has an acer laptop, which is why i thought of it heh | 08:28 |
| david__ | no, nothing appeared | 08:29 |
| david__ | after i recieve the boot menu and select the Live Boot, i still have the solid black screen | 08:29 |
| david__ | as opposed to the Kubuntu Loader | 08:30 |
| SilentDis | david__: i'm just not sure. altCD mayhap? just to see if it loads? | 08:32 |
| david__ | I used the CD on this computer to test it | 08:32 |
| david__ | works perfectly fine | 08:32 |
| david__ | that was one of the first things i thought of | 08:32 |
| SilentDis | david__: i meant, use the Alternate CD instead to try? (there's a Desktop CD and Alternate CD) | 08:33 |
| david__ | I tried that as well | 08:33 |
| SilentDis | david__: wubi? | 08:34 |
| david__ | once it is installed I still get the solid black screen when the OS is booting | 08:34 |
| SilentDis | ahhh | 08:34 |
| david__ | I tried wubi as well | 08:34 |
| david__ | same result | 08:34 |
| SilentDis | david__: other than a missing /boot, and/or grub gone wonky, i'm not sure what else it could be. | 08:35 |
| david__ | I know that is not the issue though since I used the same install disk on this computer | 08:36 |

| gertoft | Where can one find the plan for KDE 4.2 and Kubuntu 8.10? What I would like to find out is if KDE 4.2 is planned to be released in the backports? The experimental repository sound a bit to risky for me and I also have to await a fix for Digikam, since that is my preferred camera tool. | 10:30 |
| Unksi | gertoft: backports do not accept major software updates, only minor ones like 4.1.x | 10:32 |
| knubbe | sven_: yes | 10:32 |
| Unksi | so it 4.2 wont be added officially to intrepid | 10:32 |
| knubbe | sven_: same installation procedure as for ubuntu | 10:32 |
| gertoft | Ok, so I guess that I have to wait for 9.04 then. | 10:32 |
| knubbe | sven_: when the .deb is downloaded, just click it and it will install itself | 10:33 |
| sven_ | knubbe: indeed, fantastic, user friendly interface in kubuntu :) | 10:33 |
| knubbe | sven_: yes, at least as long as the program is a deb-file :-) | 10:35 |

| zeltak | thx uni4dfx, what does init 5 do? start screen? | 11:42 |
| uni4dfx | init 5 starts X | 11:42 |

| zeltak | i have screenrc conigured well | 11:44 |
| Dr_willis | You can launch screen as the proper user with some proper commands from rc.local | 11:44 |
| zeltak | and when i issue screen manually it work slike a charm | 11:44 |
| zeltak | mm ok what is rc.local (sorry for the newbishness :)) | 11:44 |
| Dr_willis | 'sudo -u username screen ' | 11:45 |
| Dr_willis | perhaps | 11:45 |
| * Dr_willis is guessing.. thats may not be the best way to do it.. | 11:45 | |
| helpdesk | Dr_willis: please what cmd would i use to know who the user of a linux platform is ? | 11:45 |
| Dr_willis | see the file /etc/rc.local | 11:45 |
| Dr_willis | helpdesk, lsb_release -a (in theory) | 11:45 |
| Dr_willis | oh the user? thats a variable setting if you wna tht users name? | 11:46 |
| Dr_willis | or what exactly? | 11:46 |
| helpdesk | Dr_willis: u knw to knw the host , you use: hostname | 11:46 |
| zeltak | i just need something like the austostart folder in kde and gnome that launches progs in three. i just want screen up and runing after a reboot | 11:46 |
| helpdesk | Dr_willis: and inserting that cmd on the terminal gives u the hostname | 11:46 |
| Dr_willis | echo $USER | 11:46 |
| helpdesk | Dr_willis: so to know the user, what comnd u put on the commer line | 11:46 |
| helpdesk | Dr_willis: oh ok thanks | 11:46 |
| Dr_willis | theres lot of env variales set :) | 11:47 |

| etfb | One of my external backup drives is behaving oddly. What's the command to check and possibly repair it? It's an ext2-formatted USB drive.. | 12:42 |
| Dr_willis | sudo fsck /dev/sd## | 12:43 |
| Dr_willis | be sure its unmounted first | 12:43 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: How can any program find it if it's unmounted? Or is there a difference between "unmounted" and "not plugged in" that I'm misunderstanding. | 12:44 |
| etfb | Also: how do I know what sd device it is? It's mounted as /media/disk... | 12:45 |
| etfb | Never mind; typed <mount> and got that detail. | 12:46 |
| Dr_willis | you mount FILEsystems | 12:46 |
| Dr_willis | filesystems exist on drives. :) | 12:46 |
| Dr_willis | how can you partition a disk when its unparttioned. :) | 12:46 |
| Dr_willis | /media/disk is not the device name.. thats the mount point. ' | 12:46 |
| Dr_willis | ie: /dev/sda3 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro) | 12:47 |
| Dr_willis | i have sda3 mounted on / (the root) of the system | 12:47 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: I see. That makes sense. | 12:47 |
| Dr_willis | /dev/sda2 on /media/VistaStorage type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096) | 12:47 |
| Dr_willis | sda2 is my windows stuff :) | 12:47 |
| etfb | Dang... now how the hell do I stop it copying, since it seems to have crashed... | 12:48 |
| Dr_willis | what copying? | 12:49 |
| etfb | It's copying a bunch of stuff off my backups, cos I'm setting up a new machine. It first started saying it couldn't copy a bunch of the later files, then just decided to stop and wait while copying a random 3kb file. | 12:50 |
| etfb | So I unplugged it. It won't cause data loss, since it was all coming _off_ the drive, so there's no writing going on. | 12:50 |
| etfb | The copying info-pane is still there tho... | 12:50 |
| Dr_willis | unplugging a drive without unmoutngint it - can cause confiusion. | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | may be safest to reboot now. | 12:51 |
| etfb | I figure it was already about as confused as it was going to get. | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | dont just 'unplug' drives. or thumdrives. :) | 12:52 |
| etfb | Didn't have much choice, since it crashed. | 12:52 |
| etfb | Usually I don't... | 12:53 |
| Dr_willis | You proberly had a choice.. but it depends on what exactly crashed. | 12:53 |
| Dr_willis | also check 'dmesg' output next time it acts funny | 12:54 |
| etfb | Nothing there: it mounts, it complains bitterly (but briefly) when I unplug it, it mounts again... oh, and lots of moaning about being unable to turn cooling devices off... | 12:55 |
| Dr_willis | plug it in.. unmout it manually with 'sudo umount /dev/whatever ' then fsck it | 12:56 |
| etfb | Hey, Dr_willis: how's your rsync trivia? Can you recall the command to copy from x to y, overwriting only if filesizes or contents are wrong on the destination? I can look it up, but I figure you probably know off the top of your head. | 12:57 |
| Dr_willis | I cant recall the last time i used rsync | 12:57 |
| Dr_willis | how do yoi know the filesizes are 'wrong' ? | 12:57 |
| etfb | Never mind then; I was just being lazy. | 12:58 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: That's the weird thing: the copy (I just used Dolphin) seems to create a ghost image of the entire contents onto the destination, then kind of... fills the files in. Brilliant idea, if it worked. | 12:58 |
| etfb | Wrong = different between source and destination, btw. | 12:59 |
| Dr_willis | WHich one is wrong :) however... Heh.. going to assume the source is always right? | 13:00 |
| etfb | So: sudo fsck /dev/sdb1 then? It's not going to try to reformat my hard disk for a Commodore 64 1571 floppy disk or anything? | 13:00 |
| Dr_willis | fsck - filesystem ck | 13:01 |
| Dr_willis | mkfs = make filesystem = format | 13:02 |
| etfb | Dr_willis: Are you sure about that command line? It doesn't look very unixy. | 13:03 |
| Dr_willis | sudo fsck /dev/sdb1 whats not unixy about it? | 13:04 |
| etfb | You said fsck - filesystem ck, and I thought you meant it was the syntax of the command. Sorry; braindead. It's been 38 degrees (Celsius) all day... | 13:05 |

| feizhou | just installed Intrepid and...no kde3...:( | 14:28 |
| syockit | yes. embrace the future ;) | 14:29 |
| feizhou | syockit: no problem...once I get kiosktool on kde4. | 14:29 |
| BillyBop | what's the utility to choose between propriatery drivers (nvidia) and free driver? | 14:29 |
| feizhou | i have a hardy pilot box for the school i work for...but...hardy's libvirt is too old | 14:30 |
| feizhou | intrepid's newer libvirt will handle windows guests but now no kde3 and kiosktool... | 14:30 |
| feizhou | i'll never get Linux on the desktops liket his... | 14:30 |
| syockit | so what's kiosktool again? | 14:31 |
| syockit | !kiosktool | 14:31 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about kiosktool | 14:31 |
| syockit | !info kiosktool | 14:31 |
| ubottu | kiosktool (source: kiosktool): tool to configure the KDE kiosk framework. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0-2ubuntu1 (intrepid), package size 256 kB, installed size 1732 kB | 14:31 |
| feizhou | man... | 14:31 |
| feizhou | the best desktop control tool there is on Linux! | 14:31 |
| syockit | that intrepid version also depends on kde3? | 14:32 |
| feizhou | nothing equivalent in GNOME universe | 14:32 |
| BillyBop | I've a big issue with kde4.2, It does not show the main menu (to start applications), it only shows the black frame around, not what should be in the inside... Problem of video driver? | 14:32 |
| feizhou | syockit: intrepid has no kde3...kiosktool has not been ported to kde4. | 14:32 |
| * feizhou wants to dig his grave and bury himself alive | 14:32 | |
| syockit | wait, I'm sure you can use the old kdelibs to run it | 14:33 |
| syockit | you don't have other kde3 tools, like k3b or amarok 1.6? | 14:33 |
| syockit | or quanta, etc | 14:33 |
| syockit | as long as it's not jaunty, I think you can run kde3 apps | 14:34 |
| feizhou | the kids don't need that stuff. I am trying to look down their desktops and not mine! | 14:34 |
| feizhou | s/look/lock/ | 14:34 |
| feizhou | hmm...no k3b on my intrepid... | 14:35 |
| feizhou | let me check the repo | 14:35 |
| feizhou | syockit: i can install k3b...but i don't think that means I can get kiosktool to run manage kde4 desktops...at least that is what the KDE team says on the kiosktool page | 14:37 |
| syockit | oic | 14:38 |
| fabri | hi | 14:39 |
| feizhou | syockit: it looks as if anything KDE has recently run out of man power...maybe I should just give up on putting Linux on the desktops, keep the school happy with working systems and get some free time to pick up qt4/qt4.5...cheers | 14:41 |
| syockit | no equivalent in gnome? | 14:41 |
| d_mitry | in kubuntu 8.10, i can't keep another screen resolution. when i log in next time, it stays as the default 1024*768. when i go to system settings -> display, it changes to what i chose before straight away. | 14:42 |

| helpdesk | i could just cd /etc/apt/sources.list and get that isn't it? | 16:04 |
| bazhang | helpdesk, open a browser | 16:04 |
| helpdesk | bazhang: | 16:04 |
| helpdesk | ok i am listening, i already opened a browser | 16:05 |

| fabio | hi everyone. I have a problem with keyboard layouts in kde4 | 16:58 |
| Dr_willis | helpdesk, i think one normally sets the enviroment variables for CC and HOSTCC as needed. | 16:59 |
| christopher | mefisto__: no line beggining with driver as far as i can see | 16:59 |
| stdin | Dr_willis: make should set them for you | 16:59 |
| helpdesk | Dr_willis: how do u set it? tyring to configure my kernel but i need ccache for fast result | 16:59 |

| stdin | make sure you're in the kernel source dir before running "make xconfig" | 17:00 |
| Dr_willis | and ive NO idea why you need to compile a kernel so badly | 17:00 |
| bazhang | homework iirc | 17:00 |
| helpdesk | stdin: u mean i have to go to the kernel source directory? | 17:00 |
| stdin | ... yes | 17:00 |
| stdin | see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile for instructions on compiling a kernel on Ubuntu | 17:01 |

| mefisto__ | christopher: yes it should work | 17:04 |
| christopher | mefisto__: so will i be able to use ay better drivers? | 17:04 |

| g_ | thanks | 18:01 |
| manumar | yes | 18:02 |
| manumar | my kubunutu have one or tow days :P | 18:02 |
| bazhang | manumar, then you should first update it | 18:03 |
| syockit | g_: try downgrading packages | 18:03 |
| bazhang | manumar, I would guess that you need to update all the sources.list and then upgrade the various packages then you can install that | 18:04 |
| manumar | mnm | 18:04 |
| manumar | ok I will do it | 18:04 |
| manumar | but | 18:04 |
| manumar | mnm | 18:04 |
| manumar | then i write | 18:04 |
| bazhang | as vsftpd is optional and not installed by default | 18:04 |
| manumar | in konsole, apt-get update | 18:04 |
| manumar | for update all my kubunutu | 18:05 |
| bazhang | and your sources.list do not seem to have been updated | 18:05 |
| manumar | mm | 18:05 |
| bazhang | first sudo apt-get update | 18:05 |
| manumar | ok I undertand | 18:05 |
| manumar | ok | 18:05 |
| the_dark_warrio | I installed Kubuntu from Ubuntu and everything went well until I tryed to update to KDE 4.2. I've followed the instructions from kubuntu website, but it can't find the packages for libical.. any tips? | 18:05 |
| manumar | second? | 18:05 |
| manumar | jeje | 18:05 |
| bazhang | then sudo apt-get upgrade manumar | 18:05 |
| bazhang | manumar, that will be a long download | 18:05 |
| bazhang | manumar, and when that is finished you can install vsftpd | 18:06 |
| manumar | mmm | 18:06 |
| bazhang | ie sudo apt-get install vsftpd | 18:06 |
| manumar | ok, I hope hat with the update my kubuntu dont crash xD | 18:06 |
| manumar | because 3 days ago that happen :S | 18:06 |
| matisse | http://img84.imageshack.us/my.php?image=brokenupdateuh5.jpg | 18:06 |
| manumar | I dont know what I did wrong | 18:06 |
| bazhang | manumar, well you could get the 8.04.2 cd iso if you wish | 18:07 |
| houmsick | hi | 18:08 |
| houmsick | how are you? | 18:08 |
| manumar | yes | 18:08 |
| syockit | matisse: hey, that's kinda kool. Is it stuck? | 18:08 |
| manumar | I had to do that 3 days ago xD | 18:09 |
| bazhang | manumar, if you got the 8.0.4.2 cd iso it would need far fewer updated packages on the fresh install | 18:10 |
| manumar | ahhhhhhhhh | 18:10 |
| manumar | I know why | 18:10 |
| manumar | xD | 18:10 |
| manumar | all thinkgs.. | 18:10 |
| manumar | haha | 18:11 |
| manumar | I write sudo apt-get update, and some files dont download | 18:11 |
| bazhang | that would be a reason certainly manumar | 18:11 |
| manumar | only files which come from ubuntu.es or something like that | 18:11 |
| bazhang | if the sources.list was not updated then it would not know about that package | 18:11 |
| manumar | so it can be taht the server is down | 18:12 |
| bazhang | manumar, certainly possible | 18:12 |
| manumar | you know how can I donwload that package from other web? | 18:12 |
| bazhang | the newest release cd iso? | 18:13 |
| quassel79 | hi, has anybody got the ati fglrx driver to work with jaunty? | 18:13 |

| manumar | direct download, but not the ISo | 18:13 |
| manumar | only the program | 18:13 |
| manumar | ftp | 18:13 |

| utdmr | thanks. I add a new panel on the top of desktop and added a plasmoid "Digital Clock". I add some other things to its front and back but clock takes a huge area, how can i make digital clock tiny? | 19:18 |
| ActionParsni1 | mefisto__: i'm putting the .so in the same folder and its not flying | 19:18 |
| maco | utdmr: right now, you can't | 19:18 |
| ActionParsni1 | mefisto__: i've got it everywhere now to try get it to work | 19:19 |
| maco | utdmr: there's no spacer plasmoid and the clock and notification area both try to expand, unfortunately | 19:19 |
| maco | if you put more junk on your panel, it'll force the clock to squish smaller | 19:19 |
| utdmr | ok thanks. i'll wait updates. And highly possible i'll ask more questions about kde4. thanks for your quick reply. | 19:20 |
| mefisto__ | ActionParsni1: make sure you have only one flash plugin listed in about:plugins in firefox | 19:20 |
| ActionParsni1 | mefisto__: i've none | 19:21 |
| mefisto__ | ActionParsni1: how did you get the .so ? | 19:24 |

| maco | White_Pelican: do you have a for-pay yahoo account? | 20:04 |
| maco | White_Pelican: yahoo only lets you use pop or imap if you pay them moneys | 20:04 |
| maco | they basically hold your emails under ransom... | 20:04 |
| White_Pelican | oh never mind then | 20:04 |

| White_Pelican | I have gmail too | 20:05 |
| White_Pelican | I use it exclusively in kde 3.5 | 20:06 |

| astromme | s/to google/to your gmail/ | 20:08 |
| astromme | which is fine | 20:08 |
| astromme | but also means you can't send email from your yahoo unless you login to it | 20:08 |
| astromme | because no pop access. | 20:08 |
| === L0customs is now known as L0Customs | ||
| White_Pelican | ah | 20:09 |
| White_Pelican | that's sad but predictable | 20:09 |
| White_Pelican | it is after all Microsoft owned | 20:09 |
| White_Pelican | from what I understand | 20:09 |
| astromme | err... because no smtp access. /shrug | 20:09 |
| astromme | Nope, yahoo is still yahoo | 20:09 |
| astromme | but msn/hotmail does the same thing | 20:09 |
| White_Pelican | true | 20:09 |
| astromme | except (interstingly) they custom build in a solution to outlook so that you can use the free account with it iirc | 20:10 |
| White_Pelican | at least gmail, if you'' pardon the pun, "got the message" | 20:10 |
| White_Pelican | :) | 20:10 |
| astromme | yep =) | 20:10 |
| White_Pelican | you mean outlook depressed? hehe | 20:10 |

| BluesKaj | heh, my ISP changed ti hotmail and msn ...the pop mail is pophm , instead od pop1,2 or 3 or whatever ,and the smtp1 has now become smtphm ...but i retained my right to a pop3 and smtp1 setup for my email | 20:12 |
| White_Pelican | good to know | 20:12 |
| White_Pelican | btw, I'm running intrpid with 4.2 using vbox | 20:12 |
| White_Pelican | I can't switch yet | 20:12 |
| fw1 | kde 4.2 isn't very fast | 20:13 |
| fw1 | looks good | 20:13 |
| White_Pelican | but, I set up a shared folder and imported my address book | 20:13 |
| White_Pelican | went without a hitch | 20:13 |
| White_Pelican | I'm assuming I can import my filters as well? | 20:13 |
| uga | BluesKaj: that's cheap | 20:13 |
| uga | and you pay them? | 20:13 |
| BluesKaj | wine is causing a few probs in kde4.2 ..and compiz as well ..had a bad freeze up yesterday | 20:14 |
| syockit | I wonder why some people got their kde4.2 slow | 20:14 |
| White_Pelican | what kind of problems, BluesKaj ? | 20:14 |
| syockit | forgot to enable dri or something? | 20:14 |
| maco | syockit: mine feels slow | 20:14 |
| uga | BluesKaj: I guess next time you'll be forwarded to the internet through an advertising based isp provider | 20:14 |
| maco | syockit: kde 4.2 is about as slow as gnome w/ compiz | 20:15 |
| uga | BluesKaj: btw, compiz??? | 20:15 |
| uga | kde 4 doesn't use compiz | 20:15 |
| uga | well, you don't need to, and I think it's safer not to use it | 20:15 |
| maco | uga: no, not kde using compiz | 20:15 |
| BluesKaj | uga , I still have my orirginal mailsetup, it's just that any new customers are forced into the hotmail which is actually webmail..no I don't pay for hotmail | 20:15 |
| maco | gnome+compiz and kde4.2+kwin are the same speed | 20:15 |
| astromme | honestly, there is still a painting issue when resizing windows. it only seems to happen with toplevel windows and it's quite annoying. | 20:15 |
| uga | BluesKaj: phew, better =) | 20:15 |
| syockit | yup, anyways if you don't do tunings for the compositing, chances are you'd get slower gui | 20:16 |
| BluesKaj | I just pay for internet service | 20:16 |
| maco | astromme: its not just with resizing | 20:16 |
| maco | changing tabs in a preferences dialog or moving your mouse over checkboxes causes the text to jump around on top of itself and sometimes checkboxes' text is solidly blacked out | 20:17 |
| astromme | maco: what else is slow repainting? | 20:17 |
| uga | uhmm... I haven't hit any issues on either nvidia or intel for a long while | 20:17 |
| astromme | maco: I don't have any of those problems | 20:17 |
| maco | astromme: not "slow repainting" rather "not repainting correctly at all" | 20:17 |
| uga | but that's with self built from source | 20:17 |
| maco | astromme: intrepid or jaunty? | 20:17 |
| astromme | uga: Try this for me: Go to resize a window. Make it small, then make it large quickly. See the "blank space" before the window redraws itself? | 20:17 |
| astromme | maco: Jaunty, but the issue has been with me since November of 07 with the alphas. It happens with Intel and NVidia drivers | 20:18 |
| maco | astromme: i'm on jaunty too, and kmail's preferences dialogs dont redraw right by a long stretch | 20:18 |
| astromme | maco: Happens with Qt only apps like designer and assistant | 20:18 |
| astromme | maco: and also with kde apps | 20:18 |
| uga | astromme: not on the window. certain app like quassel take some time relayouting, but I dont' think it's a repainting issue. It shows gray on the border if I do that | 20:19 |
| astromme | maco: Give me a screenshot. | 20:19 |
| uga | astromme: that also depends on the resizing mode you have though | 20:19 |
| Trijntje | does anyone know what can cause a movie to lag after a few minutes? | 20:19 |
| astromme | uga: This is a definite slowness in resizing. It could be in painting or layouting or whatever, but it is not what should be happening | 20:19 |
| fw1 | how can i make kde 4.2 faster? | 20:20 |
| uga | astromme: could be. relayouting got nothing to do with gfx card though, I believe | 20:20 |
| astromme | uga: sure, but who cares if it's with the graphics card or not, it's still a problem that doesn't exsist with other toolkits. (See osx and vista's toolkits for examples) | 20:21 |
| astromme | and gtk doesn't usually have the problem either (although it can) | 20:21 |
| syockit | I'd rather the window do not dynamically redraw while resizing | 20:22 |
| syockit | I'd like it to redraw only after I let go of the mouse button | 20:22 |
| astromme | syockit: Out of curiosity, why? | 20:23 |
| uga | astromme: it does matter, if you want to report the issue to the correct place | 20:23 |
| uga | astromme: and well... I wonder how you managed to run osx and vista under Xorg, for being able to compare speeds of _toolkits_ | 20:24 |
| astromme | uga: you can run Qt on OSX and Vista you know | 20:24 |
| syockit | because I won't really care how it'd look like while resizing | 20:24 |
| syockit | but people do have different thoughts | 20:24 |
| uga | astromme: yes, but you don't run them under xwindows, and using compiz/kwin | 20:24 |
| uga | so you really cannot tell where the slowness comes from | 20:25 |
| astromme | syockit: It allows me to "preview" if the size I want is right for i.e. certain widths and text elements. And it lets me (as a developer) do resizes that are smooth if I want. | 20:25 |
| uga | astromme: or do you mean those kde apps are also slow under windows? | 20:25 |
| syockit | astromme: qt on vista/osx doesn't have the problem? | 20:25 |
| mefisto__ | Trijntje: could be many things. badly encoded file maybe? | 20:26 |
| maco | astromme: http://student.seas.gwu.edu/~mac/files/kmail-redraw.png | 20:26 |
| astromme | Meh, I don't remember offhand. I'm pretty sure it does have the problem | 20:26 |
| astromme | maco: that' look like gtk-qt-engine problem | 20:26 |
| astromme | Why are you using a gnome style if I may ask? | 20:27 |
| astromme | uga: do you have the same issues with Qt windows under X11? | 20:28 |
| maco | astromme: im using cleanlooks. trying to make the kde and gnome apps not look ridiculous together | 20:28 |
| judaz | hey | 20:28 |
| astromme | maco: I use the gtk oxygen style | 20:28 |
| judaz | how can I upgrade intrepid to jaunty in a fresh install kubuntu-intrepid? | 20:28 |

| maco | aboSamoor: http://forum.kde.org/how-to-integrate-firefox-into-kde-t-17786.html | 20:33 |

| Trijntje | mefisto__ I dont think so, it also lags on flash video's etc | 20:34 |
| astromme | (by issues I mean the resizing/redrawing/relayouting whatever it is issues) | 20:34 |
| fw1 | i think i will try kde4.2.faster | 20:34 |
| uga | astromme: konqueror? kword? kate? konsole? | 20:34 |
| maco | astromme: also, because i like cleanlooks/clearlooks. | 20:34 |

| astromme | Sp0tKubuntu: Yes. Is Kubuntu out with a 4.2 version official? No. | 20:35 |
| uga | astromme: it's all down to how the app handles data for redrawing | 20:35 |
| maco | jaunty has it.... | 20:35 |
| uga | it's not the toolkit that is sloe | 20:35 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | astromme: Ok | 20:35 |
| uga | s/sloe/slow | 20:35 |
| syockit | here's hoping qt4.5 would clear the problem | 20:35 |
| astromme | maco: but jaunty is not officially released at the moment. | 20:35 |
| fw1 | kde 4.2 from the topic link is interesting | 20:35 |
| maco | astromme: true | 20:36 |

| Sp0tKubuntu | astromme: But there is a KDE 4.2 out? But not finished yet? | 20:36 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: kde 4.2 is officially released. no finished ubutnu releases have it yet. | 20:36 |
| astromme | uga: Kate has issues for me. Konsole does, and KWord does. I'm trying on both my Nvidia desktop (6600GT) and Intel Laptop (X3100) | 20:36 |
| astromme | fw1: =/. What's up/wrong? | 20:36 |
| Trijntje | mefisto__ I don't know, how could i check that? | 20:36 |
| fw1 | astromme: its so, very slow | 20:37 |
| astromme | fw1: what do you mean by slow? And are you on NVidia? | 20:37 |
| fw1 | its also set my default dpi to 120 i think | 20:37 |
| syockit | i didn't know there was ui.allow_platform_file_picker option | 20:37 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | maco: I Dont understand? I have Kubuntu, not Ubuntu, but is Kubuntu Ubuntu, just with KDE? | 20:37 |
| fw1 | astromme: yes i am | 20:37 |
| maco | fw1: is that why the text looks huge?! | 20:37 |
| astromme | fw1: You can change that in appearance settings if you wish. | 20:37 |
| fw1 | oh its nvidia's fault? | 20:37 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: yes, kubuntu just means ubuntu with kde | 20:37 |
| syockit | Sp0tKubuntu: you kinda got that correct | 20:38 |
| uga | astromme: have you tried the nvidia settings for glyph cache etc? | 20:38 |
| uga | astromme: nvidia-settings -a InitialPixmapPlacement=2 -a GlyphCache=1 | 20:38 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: and one more letter to type :P | 20:38 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | maco: I have KDE 4.1 i can see when i boot up, but witch software sources can i find KDE 4.2 then? | 20:38 |
| fw1 | astromme: oh, hmmm sigh, so is there a fix? | 20:38 |
| mefisto__ | Trijntje: what graphics card do you have? if it's ati or nvidia, kmenu > system > hardware drivers to enable | 20:38 |
| astromme | fw1: yes, older NVidia drivers are terrible in Qt with cards like 8xxx and 9xxx | 20:38 |
| ghostcube | the 180.x drivers enable the glyphcache by default | 20:38 |
| fw1 | I have a quatro 2 go | 20:39 |
| astromme | I have 180 drivers (I'm on Jaunty) | 20:39 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: youd have to use the unstable development release | 20:39 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | maco: Ok, im a little confused, im new in linux :-) | 20:39 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: im guessing you dont want to do that | 20:39 |
| ghostcube | but its still buggy espacially with compiz and loose-bindings :| | 20:39 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: then you DEFINITELY dont want to do that | 20:39 |
| fw1 | not sure what model it is | 20:39 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | maco: Correct, but then what? Will there be a KDE 4.2 for me sometime soon then? | 20:39 |
| ghostcube | fw1, so do you use the 177 drivers ? | 20:39 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: in april when jaunty releases, itll include it | 20:39 |
| fw1 | ghostcube: yep | 20:40 |
| ghostcube | you can just update them by installing nvidia-glx-180 | 20:40 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | maco: That i have tried, to install unsupportet things, bad thing for a new linux user | 20:40 |
| Trijntje | mefisto__: It's ATI, its enabled | 20:40 |
| maco | Sp0tKubuntu: just be patient | 20:40 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | maco: Ok, cool! Thanks alot! :-) | 20:40 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | maco: Im patient, just courious | 20:40 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | :-) | 20:41 |
| ghostcube | fw1, and i can give u the repo of Scottk he has an new xorg-common without the patch in the officially released | 20:41 |
| ghostcube | it fastens things up IMHO | 20:41 |

| astromme | mike1312: I'm not sure how to do it in 4.1. It's in the Power Management settings under Advanced in the settings manager but you need powerdevil, which isn't included by default in 4.1 | 20:48 |

| Desi_Muna | why aptitude upgrade doesn't look good? | 21:08 |
| incorrect | Trijntje: just about | 21:08 |
| ubuntu_ | alarm: so gnome is more lightwieght(So in theory should be faster)....And "less" buggy, (Which I'm sure is arguable lol)......So gnome would be a good choice? if im used to it?....I have heard KDE was alot more customiziable. | 21:08 |
| malv | gnome is less buggy than kde | 21:09 |
| malv | but gnome doesn't move | 21:09 |
| alarm | malv yeap, thats what i also think | 21:09 |
| maco | does anyone know if it's possible to force aptitude's update list to have one package per line like how yum does? Desi_Muna likes yum's formatting better and i cant find help in aptitude's manpage | 21:09 |

| donny | ciao a tutti | 21:10 |

| mefisto__ | senorpedro: there's a firefox theme you could try | 21:14 |
| alarm | ok syockit gave the complete answer , follow the instructions ! | 21:14 |

| alarm | irc protocol was removed | 21:15 |
| syockit | I wish someone taught me that earlier. now im all opera | 21:15 |
| mefisto__ | no one has deliberately made anything worse. kde4 is still quite new | 21:15 |
| White_Pelican | what about yahell transfer? | 21:15 |
| White_Pelican | I used to use opera but went back to firefox | 21:16 |
| alarm | the files are being transfered with 1,2 kb /s | 21:16 |
| alarm | thats not transfering , thats wasting time | 21:16 |
| White_Pelican | but it works finally? that's my point | 21:16 |
| alarm | White_Pelican if 1,2kb/s is working for you, the yes it works. i want to make use of my bandwidth | 21:17 |

| alarm | White_Pelican, best solution is amsn , i was using kopete for 2 years , no i just left it aside , dissapointing job | 21:18 |
| White_Pelican | what about pidgin? | 21:18 |
| astromme | senorpedro: System Settings -> Advanced -> Services -> Disabled "XRANDR monitor detection" or something like that | 21:18 |
| astromme | senorpedro: you might have to relog/restart X | 21:18 |
| alarm | pidgin is a good multi protocol app. thats what i use under windows where i dont want to have 23123908 apps . no camera support | 21:19 |

| maco | giz: it has a dependency that hasnt hit the repo yet, most likely | 21:21 |

| s0101 | can i get adress to ubuntu channel if anybody knows | 21:28 |
| senorpedro | honestly, konqueror in kde 3.5. was the best file manager in the world, i never understood the decision to implement dolphin | 21:28 |
| mefisto__ | alarm: you don't see "grouping and sorting" in task manager settings? | 21:29 |

| mefisto__ | david_: they should be able to work together, but you could try blacklisting | 21:53 |
| senorpedro | kde4.2 | 21:53 |
| david_ | how would i do that | 21:53 |
| mefisto__ | david_: if you're not using the other one at all | 21:53 |
| senorpedro | kopete 0.60.3 | 21:53 |
| White_Pelican | did anyone see my last question? I got no response | 21:53 |
| jimmy51_home | what would cause glx to seg fault after rebooting when it had been working fine for months? | 21:53 |
| david_edmundson | senorpedro: you sure youre on 4.2? my kopete version is 0.7 | 21:54 |
| senorpedro | it seems kubuntu8.10 has kde4.1.3 installed.... | 21:54 |
| david_edmundson | ah | 21:54 |
| senorpedro | no, i think its 4.1. | 21:54 |
| jimmy51_home | Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig | 21:54 |
| david_edmundson | yeah, you're on 4.1.3 I'm sure there used to be notifications there (btw, you can also reach it at systemsettings->notifications then selecting kopete from the drop down) | 21:54 |
| senorpedro | but that sound and that popups are extreme annoying | 21:54 |
| mefisto__ | david_: sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 21:54 |
| david_edmundson | yeah, I've disabled almost all sounds | 21:55 |
| david_edmundson | I don't want my computer beeping at me. | 21:55 |
| senorpedro | thats a good idea | 21:55 |
| etfb | What can I do in Kubuntu 8.10 to reduce battery usage? My brand new laptop seems to have a life of 40 minutes on a full charge... | 21:55 |
| david_ | okay, did that | 21:55 |
| senorpedro | i disable all sounds | 21:55 |
| === ergb546uy4ry is now known as SDFE | ||
| senorpedro | how can i disable all sounds with one click? in 3.5 that was possible | 21:56 |
| mefisto__ | david_: ok, at the end of that file (on a new line on it's own) put this in: blacklist snd_hda_intel | 21:56 |
| White_Pelican | NM I figured it out myself | 21:56 |
| david_edmundson | anyhoo, if you know what you're doing - you might want to try KDE4.2 http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2 see here | 21:56 |
| maco | senorpedro: you could map a shortcut in khotkeys to mute all... | 21:57 |
| mefisto__ | david_: then ctrl-X to quit. it will ask if you want to save the changes | 21:57 |
| david_edmundson | or under system settings -> notifications-> player 'no sounds' that way your other audio stuff'll work still | 21:57 |
| senorpedro | maco: i dont want no shortcut, i want them muted forever | 21:57 |
| senorpedro | ok thx david_edmundson | 21:58 |
| mefisto__ | david_: once you've made that change and saved it, the next reboot will ignore that card and not load the module | 21:58 |
| david_ | okay, thank you, i'm going to reboot now | 21:58 |
| * maco smacks kmail | 21:59 | |
| maco | stupid thing keeps scrolling down to the bottom of the message list *all by itself* | 21:59 |
| maco | i want to see the top of the list | 22:00 |
| giz | How do you use nepomuk? | 22:01 |
| etfb | Wow! Adept in KDE4.2 is even stupider and less usable than it was in KDE4.1! I never would have thought it possible! | 22:02 |
| maco | how do i tell kde to pick a browser and stick with it? | 22:03 |
| etfb | maco: Which version? | 22:03 |
| maco | 4.2 | 22:03 |
| pablopablovski | abloPablovski | 22:03 |
| etfb | maco: System Settings | Default Applications | 22:03 |
| maco | links from pidgin open in epiphany (???), links from kmail open in konq, and other links open in firefox | 22:03 |
| beachsurfin | as mentioned previously, this is what my /sbin/iptables looks like in vim and cat | 22:04 |
| beachsurfin | http://bayimg.com/HANmPaabe | 22:04 |
| beachsurfin | anyone know what the problem may be? | 22:04 |
| etfb | maco: In the Web Browser section (choose that from the list on the side) tell it to open links in firefox (or whatever) instead of konq. | 22:04 |
| giz | bye ya'll | 22:05 |
| maco | etfb: will that make pidgin stop using epiphany too? | 22:05 |
| maco | etfb: nevermind | 22:05 |
| maco | pidgin apparently has a browser setting of its own. in gnome it opens in firefox. in kde, pidgin decided to use "sensible-browser" (which i guess means epiphany) | 22:06 |
| mefisto__ | try symlinking "sensible-browser" to firefox. that might be a simple fix | 22:07 |
| maco | i just changed it to say firefox, but i dont know why pidgin does different things based on if im using kde or gnome | 22:08 |
| neothecat | can anyone recommend any good podcatching software that works well with OPML (and NOT amarok)? | 22:08 |

| kilani | i need help with a distribution upgrade | 23:00 |
| mefisto__ | tomdavidson: just guessing, but I would probably log out of kde, log in terminal, try removing those packages, then manually install them again. then log in to kde and see if it's any better. but again, that's just what my instinct tells me | 23:01 |

| jirik | Hi, I would like to report bug. Maybe it is not bug, but it is very annoying. I have HP 6720s with Intel Dual core processor, 3 GB Ram and integrated Intel 965 graphic card. Alongside I expect perfect 3D effects. But there are two problems. The first: | 23:28 |
| jirik | 1) When I maximalize the window via click in the system tray and the "maximalize" effect will open it, the window is maximalized, for a tiny part of second it is all white and after that is displayed its content. Disgusting ... | 23:30 |

| cbwcjw | jirik: http://bugs.kde.org | 23:32 |
| jirik | 2) By right-clicking on windows decoration, system tray etc. is displayed list of available actions as "Task manager options" or "Configure windows behaviour". This menu is displayed sometimes correctly, but sometimes after very tiny black-color-weird-something instead of menu. | 23:32 |

| jirik | cbwcjw: I see, but I would like to know, whether it is general problem KDE 4.2, or I have only integrated graphic card and this is the problem. | 23:33 |

| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: So you dont where to fill out the infos i have for using it? | 23:37 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: Maybe there is no "Auth" section in "Konversation" | 23:37 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | Anyone inhere knows if there is a "Auth" function like used on Quakenet in "Konversation"? Plz PM me | 23:38 |
| adben | hi everyone... i wanna ask you ... how can i do a deep clean of the kde user , not just "rm -R ~/.kde" , 'cuz kbuildsycoca4 crashes and didn't let me in, but other user does.. | 23:39 |
| tomdavidson | Sp0tKubuntu: i know there is auth for irc. what is quakenet? | 23:39 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: Quakenet is a server for IRC like "Ubuntu IRC" | 23:40 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: But do you know where i fill out the "Auth" part in konversation? | 23:41 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: I have the infos from quakenet, i just wonder where to put then, thet have to be loader every time i connect to give me the right ident | 23:42 |
| tomdavidson | Sp0tKubuntu: thats what i was thinking.... i was mistaken with my prev statment of auth in konversation. i am using kopete. auth settings of user/passwd are onthe basic tab of the account set up. | 23:42 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: Ahh, that ok! :-) I need to find it in Konversation | 23:43 |
| tomdavidson | Sp0tKubuntu: installin konversation right now... | 23:43 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: Cool, thanks alot, cant find it, or im not sure its the right thing i have found, F8 idendities, and then auto ident | 23:44 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | But dosent seem to work | 23:44 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: BRB, have to test | 23:44 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: Dosent seems to work in there | 23:46 |
| tomdavidson | Sp0tKubuntu: what about the service and password fields in the identity set up dialog? | 23:47 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: I have tryed, but im not sure how to fill em ind | 23:47 |
| tomdavidson | Sp0tKubuntu: or when i go to add server, i am promted to enter a password (but no username, quakenet reserves nicknames right? so maybe that is the username) | 23:48 |
| tomdavidson | Sp0tKubuntu: with out an quakenet account im leaning on the password when the server is added | 23:49 |
| Sp0tKubuntu | tomdavidson: BRB. trying again | 23:50 |
