| solifugus | What are people doing to get openoffice 3 ?? Is there a(n) (k)ubuntu package somewhere? | 00:13 |
| dutler | drostie: as apose to the grub.conf ? sorry about that :) | 00:13 |
| === kira\ is now known as \kira | ||
| solifugus | because you couldn't seriously be using version 2.4 | 00:13 |
| ibuffy | genii: so what do you think would fix this? | 00:14 |
| solifugus | :)-:-< <-- ascii p0rn | 00:15 |
| genii | ibuffy: I think you'll need to manually note each dependency version and explitly install them with the sudo apt-get install packagename=1.2.version type syntax | 00:15 |
| ibuffy | here's my sources.list: http://dpaste.com/121932/ | 00:15 |
| drostie | solifugus: the package openoffice.org-wrier, at least in my version, claims a version number of 1:3.0.1-1ubuntu1. | 00:15 |
| drostie | *openoffice.org-writer | 00:15 |
| ibuffy | genii: i have no clue how to do that :\ | 00:15 |
| solifugus | really? ok.. the splash screen says 2.4 for me.. i will go check the about dialog | 00:16 |
| genii | ibuffy: eg: you try to install for instance "abcd" and it groans "abcd requires wxyz version xxxx" so you sudo apt-get install wxyz=xxxx | 00:17 |
| solifugus | drostie: it says 2.4.... maybe you are getting experimental packages? | 00:17 |
| genii | ibuffy: Until all the dep versions are what the main package you are trying to install are met | 00:17 |
| drostie | solifugus: in a manner of speaking, it appears so. According to packages.ubuntu.com, jaunty is on 3.0 while intrepid is on 2.4. I'm on jaunty; I'm guessing you're on intrepid. | 00:20 |
| noren | psilo: my amarok is working fine.. but the media player has only vid no audio.. | 00:20 |
| noren | its late here i will try fix it tomorrow | 00:20 |
| solifugus | drostie: I depend on this machine and so wanted everything stable.. oo.o 3 has been out for so long though.. | 00:21 |
| drostie | solifugus: I can imagine. Linux .debs are available from openoffice.org (the site) directly. You can download one of them and install directly via http://download.openoffice.org/other.html#en-US . | 00:25 |
| drostie | But there's probably someone in charge of the packages who should be told to wake up. ^_^ | 00:25 |
| ibuffy | genii, what exactly does this mean: "Depends: koffice-data-kde4 (>= 1:1.9.98.5-0ubuntu1~intrepid1)" | 00:26 |
| dutler | drostie: the choice not to support ooo3 on 8.10 was made... its not afrom asomeone slacking | 00:26 |
| ibuffy | i need to install koffice-data-kde4 v.1.1.9.98.5? | 00:26 |
| drostie | dutler: ah, k. | 00:27 |
| genii | ibuffy: That means the package you are currently trying to install requires koffice-data-kde4 specific version of 1:1.9.98.5-0ubuntu1~intrepid1 as a prerequisite | 00:27 |
| darksmoke | Tm_T: wtf did you see me use a public away msg? | 00:27 |
| === darksmoke is now known as DarkSmoke | ||
| drostie | ibuffy: you can also type "aptitude show koffice-data-kde4" to find out more about that package. | 00:28 |
| ibuffy | genii: but we've already tried installing koffice-data-kde4=1:1.9.98.5-0ubuntu1~intrepid1 | 00:28 |
| genii | ibuffy: What installed version of it does: apt-cache policy koffice-data-kde4 report? | 00:29 |
| genii | (if any) | 00:29 |
| ibuffy | i already pasted the info... one sec... | 00:29 |

| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| drostie | ibuffy: can I help in any way? (I joined after you described the problem, sadly. :-/) | 00:35 |
| genii | ibuffy: Ok, what says result of: ls /var/cahe/apt/archives/koffice-data-kde4* ? We can use dpkg instead of apt-get to force overwrite of another packages pre-existing files if we have the full .deb filename | 00:36 |
| genii | ls /var/cache/apt/archives/koffice-data-kde4* rather (typo on "cache") | 00:37 |
| ibuffy | genii: /var/cache/apt/archives/koffice-data-kde4_1%3a1.9.98.5-0ubuntu1~intrepid1_all.deb | 00:39 |
| ibuffy | drostie: maybe | 00:39 |
| ibuffy | here's the problem: http://dpaste.com/121859/ | 00:39 |
| ibuffy | drostie: and here's all the pastebin links: http://dpaste.com/121863/ http://dpaste.com/121868/ http://dpaste.com/121877/ http://dpaste.com/121882/ http://dpaste.com/121932/ | 00:41 |
| ibuffy | (after the first) | 00:41 |
| drostie | ibuffy: and you can't just mv /usr/share/icons/oxygen/16x16/actions/object-order-back.png /tmp, so that the file isn't there and can be gracefully overwritten? | 00:41 |
| ibuffy | drostie: haven't tried it.. one sec | 00:41 |
| drostie | (of course, restore the file from /tmp if this fails. ^_^) | 00:42 |
| genii | ibuffy: So to try: sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/koffice-data-kde4_1%3a1.9.98.5-0ubuntu1~intrepid1_all.deb | 00:42 |
| genii | drostie: moving the file somewhere probably won't affect that the packaging system thinks the file belongs to a certain other package | 00:43 |

| christopher_ | can anyone help with random freezes. i think it has somthing to do with my radeon card. i'm using the open source drivers that came with kubuntu. | 00:43 |
| christopher_ | anyone have any ideas? | 00:45 |
| ibuffy | drostie: i still have the same error after doing that :| http://dpaste.com/121943/ | 00:45 |
| drostie | genii: ah. Makes sense. I just had the idea because it complains about "trying to overwrite" the file. But if it still complains, that's probably why. ^_^ | 00:45 |
| ibuffy | genii: one sec, will do | 00:45 |
| solifugus | ok.. I have a directory full of .deb files (openoffice 3.0.1)--how can I install them? | 00:46 |
| solifugus | The readme doesn't say | 00:46 |
| drostie | christopher_: that's, er, a rather broad question. Are there proprietary drivers that K > Applications > System > Hardware Drivers tells you to use instead? | 00:47 |
| lacitcarp | hi - learning the basics. I've created a new user and set the password. su [newuser] authenticates but doesn't seem to have an effect - whoami still returns the previous user. am I misunderstanding something? | 00:47 |
| drostie | solifugus: try clicking or double-clicking them in Dolphin. ;-) | 00:47 |
| ibuffy | genii: and then try installing koffice-kde4? | 00:48 |
| ibuffy | just did that and.... | 00:48 |
| ibuffy | i think it worked | 00:48 |
| solifugus | drostie: yeah.... been doing that.. each says it needs another.. but I finally found one that looks like it's the bottom of the dependency tree.. | 00:48 |
| ibuffy | IT WORKED! | 00:48 |
| genii | ibuffy: Yes, the specific version with the name=1.2.versioname way I showed earlier | 00:49 |
| ibuffy | wow, what was that voodoo? | 00:49 |
| pharo | has anyone tried kdevelop4 (3.9.91-0ubuntu2~intrepid1~ppa1)? I'm getting a segfault while trying to create a new project... trying to figure out if it's a known issue or if something is wrong with my setup | 00:49 |
| genii | ibuffy: Hehe, almost voodo. but basically just going straight to dpkg for the overwriting option not found in the apt-get way | 00:49 |
| ibuffy | genii: i didn't use the specific version, i just install koffice-kde4 | 00:49 |
| ibuffy | i see | 00:50 |
| drostie | lacitcarp: the "man su" command suggests that you need to su -l [newuser] if you want to create an environment similar to that of a newly logged-in person. | 00:50 |
| ibuffy | genii: can't think you enough, that has been bothering me for awhile | 00:50 |
| genii | Yes, the -l is same as "simulate login" | 00:50 |
| genii | ibuffy: You're welcome | 00:51 |
| drostie | pharo: I haven't tried it yet. Have you checked launchpad and/or tried to report the bug? | 00:51 |

| lacitcarp | drostie, genii: that did not seem to have any effect on the behavior without -l. whoami still returns prior user, and bash cmd prompt contains old username | 00:52 |

| christopher_ | drostie: there are no propietry drivers installed | 00:59 |
| drostie | solifugus: if you're familiar with text consoles, you might be able to tell dpkg to install multiple .debs. I don't know whether dpkg -i supports multiple files, but I have the feeling it does. In which case, bash should auto-expand "sudo dpkg -i *" for you in the right way. | 00:59 |
| solifugus | just don't know how that works.. | 01:00 |
| solifugus | need to learn some things... debian docs are very long winded, too | 01:01 |
| genii | drostie: dpkg accepts wildcards | 01:02 |
| christopher_ | i just can't seem to find the root to these random hangs | 01:03 |
| drostie | solifugus: just open a konsole (Alt-F2, type "Konsole") and then [cd ~/Documents/Oo.o_____] or wherever you put the folder with the extracted .debs in it. | 01:03 |
| drostie | make sure there's nothing but .debs in that folder, then [sudo dpkg -i *] to install all of them at once. dpkg should be able to figure out the tree on its own. | 01:04 |
| === wildbat is now known as wildbat_ | ||
| === wildbat_ is now known as wildbat | ||
| drostie | christopher_: what sort of hangs are they. What is happening when they occur? How long do they occur? does the system eventually stabilize? What happens if you try to Ctrl-Alt-F1 into a TTY when one is occurring? | 01:05 |
| drostie | that's where I'd start, at least, in trying to find the root of the problem. | 01:06 |
| christopher_ | drostie: it completely hands, alt-f1 does nothing, the system never stabilizes, they seem to occur more often in graphically intense areas. they happen completely randomly, so it could happen once a day or 3 times in an hour. | 01:06 |

| drostie | christopher_: I know, but why are you trying the keypress that opens the K-menu? Ctrl-Alt-F1 is very different, and useful if, say, X crashes. | 01:08 |

| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| drostie | christopher_: can you bear to try uninstalling them? Your computer will probably then default to some non-optimized driver, and you'll know whether the video drivers were, in fact, the problem. | 01:16 |
| christopher_ | drostie: ok ill give it a shot. how sure are you that it'll help? | 01:16 |
| drostie | kubuntu_: what exactly happens when you try to open an .m4a in Amarok? | 01:17 |
| christopher_ | kubuntu_: try opening up a console and typeing : "apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras" | 01:17 |
| drostie | christopher_: I have no idea. The only source I have for the thought that the video driver is at fault is your hunch. But it probably won't hurt. | 01:18 |
| christopher_ | drostie: ok ill try it | 01:18 |
| kubuntu_ | i have done that christopher | 01:18 |
| kubuntu_ | but my amarok player is not playing | 01:19 |
| drostie | christopher_: well, I should be more precise: it probably *will* hurt your video performance, but it will hopefully also give you a better idea of the problem. | 01:19 |

| christopher_ | drostie: no harm done. any other ideas? | 01:26 |
| muxomor_ | drostie: i examined it with df too, just my harddrive. It is logical, that i must mount player manually,(tried under openbox), but then tried to do it automatically in kde 'doesnt work, shows nothing after plugging/unplugging | 01:28 |

| drostie | Or, open up a terminal (Alt-F1 Konsole) and browse the packages directly: [aptitude search vlc], [aptitude show vlc], [sudo apt-get install vlc]. | 01:35 |

| drostie | jpedroza: did your particular dell inspiron have hardy installed on it? | 01:37 |
| jpedroza | drostie: Unfortunately, no. It came with Vista, which really sucks. | 01:37 |
| GWild | has anyone here experienced a problem with their start button disappearing? If so, how did you get it back (CTRL-A menu will not do it) | 01:38 |
| drostie | jpedroza: the Live CD can probably still be used to create a dual-boot system. Download one from ubuntu.com or kubuntu.org. | 01:40 |
| drostie | Beyond that, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam is your best friend ever. | 01:40 |
| jpedroza | drostie: The live CD boots fine, but no xorg. console login only... | 01:40 |
| drostie | Intrepid probably works on anything that Hardy works on. | 01:40 |
| drostie | Wow. Really? | 01:41 |
| jpedroza | drostie: drostie: Really, really. | 01:42 |
| jpedroza | drostie: From what I can find, there seems to be issues with the Indel video drivers. | 01:42 |

| drostie | (They don't mention anything about broken display drivers, as far as I see, but maybe I'm missing something.) | 01:44 |
| drostie | sille: sorry that I'm just getting back to this. Is it possible to revert back to the way it worked before? You could maybe then [sudo cp -a ____] all of the files over. | 01:46 |
| drostie | sille: but my best advice is basically resize partitions, reinstall from a live CD to one of them, migrate your files and possibly any important settings over, then start fresh. | 01:47 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| jpedroza | drostie: Most of that seems to be for the Mini 9, not the 12. Not seeing any installation information either. | 01:47 |

| drostie | jpedroza: obviously, the live cd is little help to you if xorg doesn't start. but the text-based installer could maybe get you into the system, from which you could try tweaking .conf files and driver settings. | 01:52 |
| jpedroza | drostie: I am going to try that as well. | 01:53 |
| drostie | sille: I don't believe so. The fstab file isn't set up that way. (cf. [man fstab] and [man mount] for its syntax.) | 01:53 |
| sille | drostie: ok. will reboot to old drive and see if i can see any obvious mounting points/ directories, etc that i may have deleted. | 01:55 |

| drostie | GWild: Is the menu gone from the panel, or is the whole panel gone? | 01:57 |
| GWild | the panel is there, but the button is gone | 01:57 |

| jpedroza | drostie: how do you boot into the text installer? | 02:01 |
| drostie | GWild: hrm. without seeing the process in action I couldn't really debug it. Especially if it doesn't help to remove it from the panel, restart, then add it to the panel fresh. | 02:01 |
| GWild | drostie: I'm going to reboot | 02:01 |
| drostie | jpedroza: It's just another CD, like the Live CD. Except it only has an installer on it. | 02:01 |
| drostie | Well, and maybe the memory test etc. options. | 02:02 |
| Ch1ppy | Does anyone know where the libmsn0.1 package should be coming from? | 02:02 |
| zipper | hi | 02:02 |
| drostie | Ch1ppy: [sudo apt-get install libmsn0.1] doesn't install it for you? | 02:03 |
| Ch1ppy | drostie: it's already installed, but I'm trying to reinstall it due to kopete issues... I keep getting "Reinstallation of libmsn0.1 is not possible, it cannot be downloaded." | 02:04 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest89535 | ||
| jpedroza | looks like Hardy is my only hope | 02:07 |
| drostie | Ch1ppy: downloads are fine for me off of the nl.archive.ubuntu.com mirror. Which mirror is failing when you apt-get install it? | 02:08 |
| Ch1ppy | drostie: I'm using the us.archive.ubuntu.com, so it's especially odd | 02:09 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| drostie | Ch1ppy: maybe there's a broken package in your cache. Try [sudo apt-get remove kopete libmsn0.1], [sudo apt-get clean], [sudo apt-get update], [sudo apt-get install kopete libmsn0.1], in that order. | 02:12 |
| Ch1ppy | drostie: Well, I tried searching the ubuntu repo for it (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libmsn0.1&searchon=names&suite=intrepid§ion=all) and that's returning nothing... it seems like it just doesn't exist in the repos? | 02:13 |

| VanessaE | oops | 02:14 |
| jpedroza | drostie: It looks like there are a lot of fixes coming in Jaunty. Since I am running Jaunty on my other laptop, I am going to try Alpha 4 | 02:15 |
| jpedroza | Who knows, I might be able to contribute something. | 02:16 |
| jpedroza | :) | 02:16 |
| drostie | Ch1ppy: that explains the discrepancy. There's a beta package built for jaunty, none for intrepid. If you want, you can possibly add the jaunty main repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list. | 02:16 |
| Ch1ppy | drostie: Is there a better way to do it? | 02:17 |
| drostie | Ch1ppy: depends. Can you just [apt-get install kopete] and not worry about libmsn0.9 at all? (It doesn't seem likely to be a new feature in jaunty.) | 02:21 |
| Ch1ppy | drostie: I would, but that would remove msn support in kopete wouldn't it? | 02:21 |
| mason_ | Could somebody help me out with Amarok? | 02:21 |
| mason_ | Amarok isn't detecting my iPod. | 02:22 |
| mason_ | It's mounted at /mount/ipod, is that correct...? | 02:22 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| drostie | Ch1ppy: In jaunty, libmsn0.9 is a dependency, and Kopete won't install without it. So if Kopete is installing, that would seem to indicate that its libmsn0.9 support is intrinsic. (or intrinsically unavailable.) Either way, install kopete and then see if MSN just works. | 02:23 |
| Ch1ppy | drostie: Just tried; no MSN support | 02:23 |
| drostie | mason_: I don't know. type Alt-F2, Konsole, and type [mount]. | 02:24 |
| drostie | Ch1ppy: then it sounds like your next best option, short of finding a tarball, is kmess (a msn-specific kde messenger). | 02:26 |

| psyco | anyone have any tips on getting firefox to look more kde 4.2 ish? the buttons are *bleghhh* | 02:28 |
| mason_ | drostie: any suggestions? When I hit connect, I get Media Device: No mounted iPod found | 02:29 |
| drostie | psyco: google for [KDE Firefox theme] and see what you can find. | 02:30 |
| psyco | alrightr | 02:30 |
| drostie | mason_: /media/ipod is not mounted with anything on your computer. You might check [sudo fdisk -l] to see whether there's a disk device somewhere on your computer. Better yet, if there's a "Last Plugged In Device" type of icon in the lower right corner, click it, and then click on the iPod to mount it in Dolphin. Once it's in Dolphin, it's mounted *somewhere*. | 02:32 |
| drostie | mason_: I don't know if Amarok decodes iPod obfuscation, though. I know that Rockbox has to initialize a complicated database to map the iPod gibberish filenames to the actual music titles. | 02:33 |

| xain | I mean like an overamp that is not distorted. | 04:00 |
| DaSkreech | !sound | 04:01 |
| 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.

| DaSkreech | xain: Did you try kmix? | 04:02 |
| xain | I need something like an overamo for my actual sound card. | 04:02 |
| xain | Overamp* | 04:02 |
| xain | Yes i tried Kmix. | 04:02 |

| xain | Lucky you for running intel sound. | 04:05 |
| xain | I'm stuck with realtek... | 04:06 |
| genii | xain: What says result of: lspci -nn | grep Audio | 04:06 |
| abadr_ | what's the difference between alsa and pulse audio? are they complementary? which are we running? | 04:06 |
| xain | We are running Alsa currently. | 04:07 |
| xain | Pulse add's what i am looking for personally as of system wide EQ and overamp. | 04:07 |
| xain | BUT. | 04:07 |
| abadr_ | lspci -nn | grep audio: 00:14.2 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) [1002:4383] | 04:07 |
| DaSkreech | abadr_: Pulseaudio runs on top of alsa | 04:07 |
| xain | It has a very bad feedback on sound quality. | 04:07 |
| DaSkreech | xain hey | 04:13 |
| abadr_ | ok I ran: "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec" and I got "Codec: Realtek ALC268". isn't that different from intel hda? is there some sort of misconfiguration? | 04:13 |
| genii | abadr_: No, this is right. | 04:15 |

| DaSkreech | brent: Dunno | 04:20 |
| brent | ok.thanks | 04:21 |
| genii | Probably because MSN keeps changing their protocols so you are railroaded into using their client | 04:21 |
| DaSkreech | Maybe not | 04:21 |
| genii | (this happens about 3-4 times a year) | 04:21 |
| DaSkreech | Anyone here on MSN now? | 04:21 |
| brent | what can i do to fix it? | 04:21 |
| Ch1ppy | I'm on MSN via kmess right now | 04:22 |
| genii | DaSkreech: Not at the moment but could start up pidgin or so | 04:22 |
| Ch1ppy | MSN via kopete is FUBAR for me ATM though | 04:22 |
| DaSkreech | Ch1ppy: Do you really need to be on now? | 04:23 |

| xain | Sorry screech, baby was waking up. | 04:23 |
| Ch1ppy | DaSkreech: Sorry? | 04:23 |
| Ch1ppy | DaSkreech: I'm online on kmess, so it's not an issue... I'd rather have kopete running, but I've given up on that right now... the issue is far too irritating | 04:23 |
| kuaera | genii: Poor KDE color/style support, poor chatroom integration. Bad interface. | 04:23 |
| kuaera | The only boon is integration with your contact list...which reminds me that Kontact isn't 100% either :( | 04:24 |
| xain | I downgraded back to 8.04 due to issues myself. | 04:24 |
| genii | Interesting. Pidgin is groaning about an ssl certificate at contacts.msn.com when i start up | 04:24 |
| DaSkreech | Ch1ppy: Can you log off and back in? | 04:24 |
| xain | Including the KDE4 bug on Intel VGA chipsets. | 04:24 |
| Ch1ppy | DaSkreech: Oh. Sure | 04:25 |
| DaSkreech | xain: What does lspci -nn | grep Audio say? | 04:25 |
| xain | I have no errors or problems with hardware or software, | 04:25 |
| xain | I want a system wide equalizer and overamp kinda like what you get with pulse audio. | 04:26 |
| Ch1ppy | DaSkreech: Works for me | 04:26 |
| DaSkreech | ok | 04:26 |
| xain | But i wont use Pulse ever again. | 04:26 |
| xain | I had a really bad overamp issue with screaming feedback. | 04:26 |
| abadr_ | rebooting, back in a bit. | 04:28 |
| PSiL0 | I give up... I find myself spending more time troubleshooting kubuntu rather than getting any real work done. For the past half-hour, I had to rescue some of my data I've been analyzing today due to the fact that resuming in kde 4.2.0 is a crapshoot.. It is more like playing russian roulette with anything I had in my workspace... This is where everything slows to a crawl after coming out of resume with all of the system processes | 04:28 |
| PSiL0 | running under disk sleep mode.. | 04:28 |
| Ch1ppy | DaSkreech: In case it comes up for someone else, the libmsn0.1 package for intrepid has gone the way of the dinosaur | 04:29 |
| PSiL0 | Then after saving my data, I did "sudo shutdown now" in tty1 that tells me, again, that kdm does not respond to the term signal that then leads me to a new menu (emergency?) where I can rescue broken packages or recover x-server, which I selected.. | 04:30 |

| kuaera | PSiL0: Jaunty seems pretty nice to me. | 04:37 |
| xain | I would love to upgrade. | 04:37 |
| PSiL0 | Anyways, I think my rant was more appropriate for #kde because kubuntu 08.10 under 4.1.4 was rock-solid compared to the problems I'm having with 4.2.0 | 04:37 |
| kuaera | I'm just concerned about the status of various integral pieces of KDE 4 software | 04:37 |

| kuaera | Arora, with some additional KDE integration [which is next on their list and I'm active in], is actually a very strong candidate | 04:40 |
| xain | Doesn't run on KDE 4 my ass. | 04:40 |
| DaSkreech | Firefox is a Windows application | 04:40 |
| xain | Mine ran just fine. | 04:40 |
| kuaera | I mean that it doesn't integrate with KDE 4, doesn't use Qt. | 04:40 |

| xain | OH. | 04:40 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: Koffice 2 is a rewrite. Kontact bus are being squashed at a massive rate, Kopete needs help Who will step up to help it? | 04:41 |
| xain | I'm not that familiar with what you mean by QT so i appoligize abotu that. | 04:41 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: Not sure how that's a KDE problem | 04:41 |
| PSiL0 | kuaera: there is a kde4 skin and gtk-engine-qt4 with oxygen-remix solves the rest, now ff3 lookss nicely intergrated witht eh rest of kde4 | 04:41 |
| kuaera | It's an adoptability problem, DaSkreech | 04:41 |
| DaSkreech | xain: Qt is the toolkit that KDE is built on Firefox uses a mix of GTk+ and XUL | 04:41 |
| xain | I don't use Kopete. | 04:41 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: What do you mean by that? | 04:42 |
| xain | Your speaking to a Kinux Newbie BTW man. | 04:42 |
| xain | Linux* | 04:42 |
| xain | I just know what i've tested out and how it perform's. | 04:42 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: I've elected to help write KOffice 2 online documentation. Kontact's biggest issues are still outstanding and I should report them. Kopete... I don't know. | 04:42 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: A desktop environment is only as good as it's programs, really. | 04:43 |
| PSiL0 | kuaera: I use the iconset here (http://kims-area.com/?q=node/62) to replace the ugly gnome icons in ff3.. | 04:43 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: KDE has very good programs | 04:44 |
| PSiL0 | kuaera: then I installed lxappearance to force gtk apps to use a certain window theme and iconset | 04:44 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: The basics: browsing, work processing, email, chat. | 04:44 |
| xain | But anyway, back to my own issue. xD | 04:44 |
| PSiL0 | kuaera: sudo apt-get install lxappearance... GTK-themes or whatever it is called under Appearances in system settings never worked out well for me | 04:44 |
| xain | Anyone know of a program i can get through add/remove that can give me the ability to control systame wide EQ and Volume, and Overamping? | 04:45 |
| kuaera | PSiL0: It's alright, I'm happy with Arora :P | 04:45 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: I would say the weakest is chat and as I said Kopete is basically two guys. None sponsored none with a significant amount of free time | 04:46 |
| DaSkreech | Almost all of Kopete is plugin based so if someone wants something done it can be done | 04:46 |
| DaSkreech | Just who will do it? | 04:46 |
| PSiL0 | anyways, I think I will be heading back to my windows xpsp3 partition for my work since I have a paper to write and my refs are all in endnote.. I haven't had to time to import them to Bibtex | 04:46 |
| kuaera | I don't know C++, though I'd like to. | 04:46 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: Oh, audio is a good fifth on the basics, and the latest Amarok 2 is very strong [I compiled from SVN] | 04:47 |
| xain | ..... | 04:48 |
| xain | SILENCE BREAKER! | 04:48 |
| xain | I have Amarok running properly and my audio. | 04:48 |
| xain | I just have 2 issues with my Linux installation so far. | 04:49 |
| xain | Visual and Audio. | 04:49 |
| PSiL0 | I really would like to use linux, but the progressive crippling of functionalities I deem essential to me (kde and ati updates) prevents from doing so | 04:49 |
| DaSkreech | xain: That's a hell of a two things | 04:49 |
| xain | Haha. | 04:49 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: What's getting worse? | 04:49 |
| PSiL0 | As for the ati update, I should take the blame since I guess that is the price I pay for trying out the bleeding edge | 04:49 |
| xain | I'm kool with OpenGL. | 04:49 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: have they gone to Amarok 2.1 yet or are they still in 2.0 mode ? | 04:50 |
| xain | PSiLO: Serves ya right. xD | 04:50 |
| kuaera | 2.0.x, yeah. | 04:50 |
| xain | PSiLO: Wish i has an ATI... | 04:50 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: Ok I've decided I'll wait till 2.1 before jumping back in to Amarok | 04:50 |
| xain | I normally run XPSP3.... | 04:50 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: I know there are immedieate problems with Koffice and Kontact but I'm confident they will be addressed and fairly shortly | 04:51 |
| DaSkreech | What's the issue you have with Kopete? | 04:51 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: They're having some collection issues, but it's otherwise very strong. [Amarok 2] | 04:51 |
| xain | But i woud like to get Linux to run the way i want it to for the fact i can do all the thing's i ever wanted to on XP but it's pre-installed in linux. | 04:51 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: 1) kdm does not terminate during the shutdown process, thus hanging it up; 2) kwin not-responding/blocking some firefox functionality that is extremely important to me; 3) dolphin still painfully slow (despite what the devs say) when managing my imaging experiments | 04:51 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: Wait. Ever? | 04:51 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| DaSkreech | KDM never terminates? Everytiem you shutdown? | 04:52 |
| xain | PSiLO: Believe it or not. | 04:52 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: Yeah kdm never responds to the term signal during the shutdown process.. yup | 04:52 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: Well, no MSN support, for one. Also, it's method of integrating contacts into your list and establishing metacontacts is excessively clunky | 04:52 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: That's pretty bad. That means X is still up? | 04:52 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: this happened after installing ati catalyst 9.1, so I blame ati for that one... yeah, X remains up | 04:52 |
| xain | PSiLO: i have had a 63% performance reduction since i have changed from Ubuntu - Gnome over to Kubuntu - KDE. | 04:52 |
| DaSkreech | Can You check how much CPU X is using when that happens? | 04:52 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: The "cannot add yourself to your own list" bug has been around for about a year and a half. | 04:53 |
| xain | MSN support - AMSN. | 04:53 |
| xain | Well, Chat client atleast,. | 04:53 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: How would you like it to integrate your contacts into the list? | 04:53 |
| PSiL0 | xain: As much as I would like to say that I champion Gnome's mantra of simplicity, I literally puked when using Gnome for over an hour on a fresh Fedora 10 install | 04:53 |
| PSiL0 | ;) | 04:53 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: hope you wiped your keyboard | 04:54 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: I meant to say figuratively, hehe.. | 04:54 |
| xain | I said performance... | 04:54 |
| xain | Not eye candy. ^^ | 04:54 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: I'm almost certain you can turn off whatever kwin is blocking in firefox so that should be alright | 04:54 |
| kuaera | <= doesn't use KWin | 04:55 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: What is painfully slow ? | 04:55 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: Good for you | 04:55 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: I'm uncertain. "Properties" isn't the right place for "Contact List integration" | 04:55 |

| xain | Well.... | 04:56 |
| xain | BAck to window's for me. : / | 04:56 |
| kuaera | DaSkreech: In any dialog where photos are used next to names, a 50% image size border is around all of the photos, taking up massive real estate | 04:56 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: dolphin in kde 4.2.0 soon comes to a halt after navigating through two directories, like it is saying, "no mas!" | 04:57 |

| DaSkreech | PSiL0: Turn off previews? | 04:58 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: Yeah, I turned off previews and the information panel..whereas, when I use konqueror, transferring and managing files flies... | 04:58 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | Ok i'll make this as specific as possible. Running the latest version of Kubuntu. On boot, Plasma Desktop crashes (Sig 11) and KDE GUI refuses to boot. Trying to download Gnome... is there any way to fix this? | 04:59 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| DaSkreech | Angelus_Delapsus: remove your Plasma configs? | 04:59 |
| kuaera | Angelus_Delapsus: Latest = Intrepid or Jaunty? | 05:00 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: hmm interesting. Did you file a bug? | 05:00 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: As for kwin, the funny thing is that the aforementioned mouse gesture returns after turning off compositing.. However, after turning it back on, the problem pops back up, even when using xrender instead of opengl | 05:00 |
| === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq | ||
| Angelus_Delapsus | Kuera: Intrepid. | 05:00 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | DaSkreech: Can't touch anything outside of terminal and Konqueror window. Anything else crashes | 05:00 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | No taskbar, no panels | 05:00 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: *sigh* I guess I have to do that in order to get a more tangible, workable response...no offense intended to you, mind you | 05:00 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: have you tried removing/renaming dolphin config files from .kde ? | 05:01 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | I have some knowledge of terminal commands but not enough to run an entire fix from the terminal | 05:01 |
| === Cueball_ is now known as Cueball | ||
| DaSkreech | Angelus_Delapsus: Yeah I know. before you login jump to a VT and mkdir plasmabkup && mv ~/.kde/share/config/plasma* plasmabkup | 05:01 |
| DaSkreech | Angelus_Delapsus: Then login | 05:01 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: I did once awhile ago due to the same problem, but it came back soon thereafter | 05:02 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: Well maybe none of the developers have that kind of environment to deal with. So they have never had that happen so they don't know it needs fixing | 05:02 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | DaSkreech: Alright.... brb. | 05:02 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: sounds like something to mention if you file a bug report | 05:02 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: Sounds a lot like a cache problem | 05:02 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: might be interesting to compare the bad config with a fresh one that works | 05:03 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: True, I try again and save my dolphin configs first before clearing them.. | 05:04 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: True, I should try again and save my dolphin configs first before clearing them.. | 05:04 |
| PSiL0 | DaSkreech: I guess none of the devs conduct imaging experiments, huh? ;) | 05:05 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: probably not :) | 05:05 |
| PSiL0 | One experiment alone generates 700MB of tifs | 05:06 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: and konqueror shows the previews ok? | 05:06 |
| DaSkreech | Reminds me of a Pyschology research center looking at MMORPGS to see the interactions | 05:07 |
| DaSkreech | asked for Everquest 2 logs and when they turned up it was 60TB of files | 05:07 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: I don't have previews on for either konqueror or dolphin | 05:07 |
| DaSkreech | Ummmm ok | 05:07 |
| PSiL0 | If I want pics, I just run my picasa ;) | 05:07 |
| DaSkreech | That's a bit more than we thought we would have :) | 05:07 |
| DaSkreech | PSiL0: Digikam would be interesting to run with that | 05:08 |
| PSiL0 | hmmm, it is good in previewing stacked tiffs, which each having at least 140 images? | 05:08 |
| DaSkreech | Well it's built for large volume data | 05:08 |
| PSiL0 | I just imagej, very fast in image process and analysis.. opensource and runs on java | 05:09 |
| DaSkreech | so should be interesting to see how it handles it | 05:09 |
| PSiL0 | ahh, more like a stress test, lol | 05:09 |
| DaSkreech | kuaera: That's A kwin issue? | 05:09 |
| PSiL0 | oh yeah, fourth issue I have with kde 4.2.0 is that resuming after suspending a session to RAM seems more of a crapshoot than 4.1.3 & 4.1.4 | 05:10 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: is it possible to remove catalyst without removing fglrx? | 05:10 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: That I don't know... | 05:10 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: Actually, I would interested in downgrading from 9.1(8.573) to x.x(8.553).. I guess I have to remove everything associated with ati and fglrx and apt-get install from the repos | 05:11 |
| PSiL0 | would interested = would be interested | 05:12 |
| DaSkreech | Yeah pretty sure you just swap out the modules | 05:13 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: I wonder if installing catalyst from the ubuntu deb would do that... | 05:13 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: ohh, I installed 9.1 from ati's site.. the repos don't have it yet.. remember, bleeding edge.. | 05:14 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| PSiL0 | *sigh* live by the sword, die by the sword.. | 05:14 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | DaSkreech: You still here? | 05:14 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: yes but there is a catalyst deb in official repos, isn't there? an old one, I mean | 05:14 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | mefisto: DaSkreech still here? Unfortunately I'm having to run irc through the terminal | 05:15 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: ahhhh.. sorry.. Yeah, there is a catalyst deb in the official repos... just not the supposed latest and greatest.. I guess I installed 9.1 to see if ati fixed the video flickering issue, which it did... somewhat... | 05:15 |
| DaSkreech | Angelus_Delapsus: Not sure why that's unfortunate :) | 05:16 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | Ohhh | 05:16 |
| Angelus_Delapsus | DS: Because I don't see a user list | 05:16 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: but did catalyst fix it, or fglrx? do they get installed together? | 05:16 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: oh, I think catalyst did since fglrx is for 3D rendering, no? | 05:17 |
| PSiL0 | anyways, the 9.1 package contained newer versions of both catalyst and fglrx than the one found in the repos | 05:18 |
| mefisto__ | PSiL0: I thought catalyst was just for tweaking driver settings, getting info easily, etc. I'm just guessing though, since it's possible to install just fglrx from repos without catalyst | 05:18 |
| PSiL0 | mefisto__: actually, I think one can.. I think I saw it from a guide.. | 05:19 |

| maco | i know Tomboy has a LaTeX plugin, and I think Zim has it built in | 05:27 |
| DaSkreech | I would guess | 05:27 |
| DaSkreech | Nothing techincal prevents it | 05:29 |
| maco | well i mean, does it have a way of inputting & interpreting LaTeX codes | 05:29 |
| maco | the Tomboy plugin uses imagemagick to convert LaTeX code into images | 05:29 |

| DaSkreech | abadr_: call them 8.10 9.10 then | 06:40 |
| StR|Sangreal | package amarok-kde4 doesnt exist | 06:41 |

| Cybio | DaSkreech: ... True the release phylosophy from (k)Ubuntu is totally different then how it goes in Debian. I had Sid running for a long time and ones in a while just needed to do a dist-upgrade to get a load of new stuff ... In Kubuntu i need to re-install a complete new distribution | 07:04 |
| DaSkreech | Cybio: Well you can just dist-upgrade to the new distro | 07:06 |

| hanseld | I have a problem with KDE 4.2 release on my Ubuntu 8.10 installation. | 09:09 |
| ActionParsnip1 | hanseld: ask away | 09:10 |
| hanseld | I have some links/docs on my Desktop (Desktop folder). | 09:10 |
| hanseld | If I right-click on such an icon to get the properties of that item I could see that KDE tell me about an error (I think it was a SIGKILL event) and then restart the Desktop display. | 09:13 |
| hanseld | I would not be logged out. But the complete Desktop display area is blanked out and displayed again. | 09:14 |
| hanseld | I can recreate this problem each time (even after reboot of the whole Ubuntu). | 09:15 |
| ActionParsnip1 | hanseld: are you fully updated? | 09:16 |
| hanseld | Yes. I am using the kubuntu-experimental repository in addition to the official repos. Each time I got notification about new updates I will install them. | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip1 | hanseld: the experimental repos may be causing the issue | 09:18 |
| hanseld | Is there a plan/date when KDE 4.2 will be provided by the stable repos (i.e. not experimental)? | 09:19 |
| hanseld | for ubuntu 8.10... | 09:19 |

| hanseld | Right. Am I right that KDE 4.2 release will be available for 8.10 as non-experimental? At the moment KDE 4.1.4 is available in the non-experimental repository. | 09:23 |
| Tm_T | hanseld: well be in backports | 09:23 |
| Tm_T | s/well/will/ | 09:23 |
| hanseld | Tm_T, you mean the backports I can enable in the Software Sources dialog. Right? | 09:26 |
| Tm_T | hanseld: yes | 09:26 |
| Tm_T | hanseld: it's not there yet, but will be when ready | 09:27 |
| hanseld | Tm_T, great. | 09:27 |
| SuperHouse | How would I get the larger text to 'save' in Konsole ? | 09:27 |
| SuperHouse | instead of me having to do it each time | 09:27 |
| hanseld | Thank you, Tm_T and ActionParsnip1. | 09:27 |
| ActionParsnip1 | hanseld: after the error, try reading dmesg | tail | 09:27 |
| SuperHouse | (enlarge it) | 09:27 |

| Tm_T | SuperHouse: save/edit | 09:27 |
| SuperHouse | Tm_T: how | 09:27 |
| Tm_T | SuperHouse: menu: Settings -> Edit current profile | 09:28 |
| hanseld | ActionParsnip1, good idea. Thanks for this. I will do it and come back if there are interesting information. | 09:28 |
| hanseld | CU then. | 09:28 |
| hanseld | bye. | 09:28 |

| smTdust | anyone comfortable with madwifi drivers? | 09:32 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Is there any difference in the Ubuntu Server kernel to the desktop kernel? | 09:32 |
| SuperHouse | Oh yeah, and like Gnome, is it possible for the screen saver to start when you lock the computer? | 09:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | SuperHouse: why not just turn off the monitor? | 09:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | SuperHouse: electricitysaver > screensaver | 09:34 |
| SuperHouse | ActionParsnip1: require effort | 09:34 |

| ActionParsnip1 | SuperMetal: in the prefs where you select sounds for pidgin, do the previews work? | 10:55 |

| ActionParsnip1 | SuperMetal: and then if you go to the sounds tab, is mute sounds selected there | 10:59 |
| SuperMetal | no, as I said when I click "preview" they don't play | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip1 | SuperMetal: if you change the sound method from automatic to whatever system you use this may help | 10:59 |
| SuperMetal | I have it on ALSA | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | SuperMetal: are any mute check boxes selected | 11:00 |

| ActionParsnip1 | SuperMetal: you could try closing pidgin completely and renaming ~/.purple then relaunching to get a stock profile for pidgin | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip1 | SuperMetal: you will have to reset up your accounts but its a good test, you can rename back if you gain nothing but you will have further knowledge | 11:04 |

| Kryczek | dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/kde-window-manager_4%3a4.2.0-0ubuntu1~intrepid1~ppa7_i386.deb (--unpack): | 13:50 |

| Bauldrick | Dr_willis: after yesterdays update my hdd went to 100% (which has something to do with this im sure) but it should only be about 30 % full | 13:50 |
| mefisto__ | Bauldrick: is your home dir, especially .kde, owned by you? | 13:50 |
| Bauldrick | mefisto__: i have since chown it and chmod 755 | 13:50 |
| afeijo | KORBEN_x64: thanks, so its no possible what I want. | 13:51 |
| noren | ahh about to complete my update to kde4.2 | 13:51 |
| KORBEN_x64 | i don't know... try with curl, i think it has similar capabilities | 13:52 |
| mefisto__ | Kryczek: can you install kdebase-workspace-bin first? | 13:52 |
| Kryczek | ah... i tried apt-get remove'ing the 4.1.4 package first | 13:53 |
| drostie | afeijo: well, if you can get directory listings, you might be able to parse it through something that's regex-aware and then back into wget. But wget doesn't have regex-aware recursion. | 13:53 |
| drostie | afeijo: (or at least, that's what I can find from a cursory reading of the man page.) | 13:53 |
| afeijo | found! -A.png | 13:53 |

| BluesKaj | trying to install kubuntu 8.10 on wife's vista pc using wubi (I don't feel like fooling around with the vista bootloader problems ) , buty her processor is 64 bit and the graphics driver available for that platform is terrible , so i'm trying to find a way to install 32 bit using wubi. I've read some suggestions to like "pass --32bit " when installing it , but I don't recall such an option. Her Vista is a factory installed 32 bit version. | 14:20 |

| KORBEN_x64 | Can I force Wubi to download and install a 32 bit version of Ubuntu? | 14:22 |
| KORBEN_x64 | Yes, either pre-download the appropriate 32 bit ISO manually and place it in the same folder as Wubi.exe or start Wubi with the "--32bit" argument. | 14:22 |
| ActionParsnip1 | BluesKaj: is it an Asus Pundit? | 14:22 |

| shadeslayer_ | BluesKaj: maybe he means C:\Ubuntu | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip1 | BluesKaj: yes you install wubi like a windows app then you will have linux, i never mentioned a folder) | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip1 | BluesKaj: the card is supported in intrepid by the nvidia-glx-177 driver (which you said was weird) | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | KORBEN_x64 what wubi folder , there's only the application install icon ? | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | ActionParsnip1 , it won't install on 64 bit | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | the graphics drivers | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | BluesKaj: which drivers do yu have, you dont install any explicitly, you do it via apt / synaptic / aptitude | 14:30 |
| BluesKaj | I used the restricted driver app recommended driver , used apt for the 177 but it won't install on a 64 bit platform | 14:32 |
| BluesKaj | hence the 32 bit query | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip1 | BluesKaj: it should install the 64bit video driver from the 64bit repos | 14:35 |
| khalidmian | any help on this error? CMake Error: The source directory "/home/khalidmian/Desktop/ktorrent-3.2/build" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt. | 14:35 |
| ActionParsnip1 | BluesKaj: im not the best guy to ask, ive never used wubi. I think its a godawful idea | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | I'm not asking about the nvidia driver as such ActionParsnip1, because the 64 bit one doesn't work or won't install ..I think a 32 bit install will work since the Vista install is 32 bit | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | im unsure how wubi handles that sort of thing | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | if the vista is 32bit, i would install 32bit linux | 14:37 |

| c0p3rn1c | imho wubi can handle 64 bit, because you just mount a ntfs directory and install your full ubuntu there | 14:42 |

| AndySpain | yes i know | 15:12 |
| AndySpain | there it is | 15:12 |
| AndySpain | and i want it mounted to /mnt/sda1 | 15:12 |
| AndySpain | but automatically at each startup | 15:12 |
| Dr_willis | then you make a proper entry in /etc/fstab | 15:12 |
| ActionParsnip1 | AndySpain: add an entry for it in /etc/fstab | 15:13 |
| gothpaw | interestingly, whenever I try to change the screen resolution Kubuntu freezes up on me and I am able to do nothing except restart the computer with the reboot button on the front of my tower. Any ideas as to why this would be happening??? | 15:13 |
| AndySpain | so i don't have to do sudo mount every time | 15:13 |
| Dr_willis | AndySpain, you got it. | 15:13 |
| Dr_willis | !fstab | 15:13 |

| Dr_willis | edit the xorg.conf and set the res there - is one way | 15:30 |
| gothpaw | Dr_willis: hopefully that one works. This KRandRTray keeps freezing the system everytime I do it that way | 15:30 |
| Dr_willis | krandtray uses the xrand features of the xserver. that may have changed with the latest x server changes.. or your video drivers | 15:32 |
| gothpaw | Dr_willis: figured as much, but whatever way works is good for me as I can't see half the stuff on the screen, lol | 15:33 |

| Laeborg | hello | 15:42 |
| Dr_willis | gothpaw, ive not had to edit it in ages.. with my LCD montiors and dvi conector. X always gets my res right. | 15:43 |
| Laeborg | im pretty new to kubuntu, but im just in love with this OS :D | 15:43 |
| Dr_willis | gothpaw, you are using a lcd monitor? DVI conector? KVM switch? VGA monitor? or what exactly? | 15:43 |
| Laeborg | but i have a little problem with my gfx, intel media accelerator x3100, when i run a glxgears, i only have a avarage FPS on 200 | 15:43 |
| Laeborg | and i can't get openGL to work. | 15:44 |
| kuaera | Uh? glxgears kinda requires OpenGL | 15:44 |
| gothpaw | Dr_willis: LCD, no dvi (however I could change it to a dvi cable) | 15:44 |
| Laeborg | well i have installed steam via PlayOnLinux (wine) and there i can only use software mode, not openGL | 15:45 |
| gothpaw | Dr_willis: should I try switching the cable before I change the screen res. right now I swear this is 640x480 as I can't see half the stuff on the screen, lol ... was hoping for at least 1280x1024 or higher | 15:46 |
| khalidmian | can one uninstall amarok nightly? | 15:47 |
| kuaera | khalidmian: Yes. | 15:48 |

| kuaera | Laeborg: I'm uncertain what to tell you, aside from the fact that Intel acceleration support is very iffy | 15:49 |

| gothpaw | Dr_willis: DVI is possible. My monitor has a built in switch to go between 2 PC's. The DVI is on the other machine, but I can swap them around easy enough | 15:59 |
| sy | hello | 15:59 |
| gothpaw | Dr_willis: is there anything I need to change to move it to DVI, or could it be as simple as just changing the cable? | 15:59 |

| sy | i want go out with you | 16:01 |
| Dr_willis | gothpaw, with dvi when you restart the X server it 'should' in theory get the proper info. It may be that 'switching btween 2 pc's" that is goofing things up | 16:01 |

| sy | to change the permission | 16:24 |
| sy | whta hapen | 16:24 |
| gothpaw | Dr_willis: I haven't changed anything since the install (just installed this about 3 hours ago) so I am kind of assuming Kubuntu installed the proper drivers | 16:24 |
| sy | je cherche une femme | 16:25 |
| Dr_willis | gothpaw, bad assumtion | 16:25 |
| Dr_willis | gothpaw, what is your video card? | 16:25 |
| sy | whta video card | 16:25 |
| gothpaw | Nvidia 6600LE I do believe | 16:25 |
| Dr_willis | Then you need to install the 'nvidia' drivers | 16:25 |

| Dr_willis | it is. :) its just slow. | 16:48 |
| Suiko | nope, its writen there | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | 1. First, Install a hard disk, and connect the Storage Central SC101 to your network. | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | 2. Next, Install the Storage Central SC101 software. | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | Looks like it uses special software | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | so linux support may not exist | 16:48 |
| Suiko | jup | 16:48 |
| Suiko | there is a project by googlecode | 16:49 |
| Suiko | but i dont know how to handle it | 16:49 |
| Dr_willis | Then looks like you have been asking a question that you allready have the answer for. | 16:49 |
| Dr_willis | sad the thing couldent just work as a nfs server.. that would be nice | 16:49 |
| sy | thank you, i must go to now see next time. | 16:50 |

| ajfahmi | hello guys | 16:58 |
| ajfahmi | k3b didnt detect my drive ? | 16:58 |
| ajfahmi | how can i fix that ? | 16:58 |
| Dr_willis | there used to be a k3b setup menu item/command.. in the k3b menus i recall... | 16:59 |
| Dr_willis | or check what your optical drive is really called. and doublt check the /dev/cdrom or /dev/dvd (or other links) are pointing to.. | 16:59 |
| Dr_willis | ls -l /dev/dvd | 17:00 |
| Dr_willis | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2009-02-17 21:32 /dev/dvd -> scd0 | 17:00 |
| Dr_willis | my 'dvd' is actially /dev/sdc0 - i could tell k3b to use /dev/sdc0 instead of /dev/dvd if i wanted tio | 17:00 |
| ajfahmi | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2009-02-17 21:32 /dev/dvd -> scd0 | 17:01 |
| ajfahmi | Dr_willis how do i do that ?/ | 17:02 |
| Dr_willis | so chkeck k3b settings be sure its access ing /dev/dvd i guess.. | 17:02 |
| Dr_willis | run k3b from a terminal also. and look for any error messages | 17:02 |
| Dr_willis | when i do that i see a lot of lines like .............. | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0: init() | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0 feature: CD Mastering | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | shows its using /dev/sdc0 :) | 17:03 |

| Dr_willis | sudo commane can do that | 17:05 |
| Dr_willis | your initial user should be able to burn disks.. but others may need to be in a specific group | 17:06 |

| === Guest21172 is now known as mmm | ||
| draik_ | kuaera: That's actually the full command, but I use the alias | 17:09 |
| draik_ | I created the alias 'dg' | 17:09 |
| kuaera | I see | 17:09 |
| draik_ | Point being that I can't run an app | 17:10 |
| draik_ | Yakuake is there at startup | 17:10 |
| kuaera | Hrm. That's really bizarre. | 17:10 |
| draik_ | Yup. I can't run Firefox because it will freeze after a minute of usage. | 17:10 |
| kuaera | htop? | 17:10 |
| Dr_willis | try a differnt window maanger as a test... like openbox. | 17:11 |
| draik_ | htop doesn't show anything. I tried that earlier. | 17:11 |
| Dr_willis | could be a kde issue i guess.. hard to prove whats going on. | 17:11 |
| kuaera | htop doesn't crash, though? | 17:11 |
| draik_ | Nope | 17:11 |
| kuaera | So that's not "every app", just GUI apps | 17:11 |
| kuaera | Dr_willis has a point. | 17:11 |
| kuaera | openbox --replace | 17:12 |
| draik_ | Yesterday, however, when I ran 'dg', it would not let me run the install of the packages held back. | 17:12 |
| kuaera | [Granted, I use openbox all the time and have a remarkably stable Jaunty install] | 17:12 |
| draik_ | Something about a lock on /?/var/something. Sorry, I can't recall the location. | 17:12 |
| Dr_willis | does openbox support --replace? :) | 17:12 |
| Dr_willis | ive never nioticed that | 17:12 |
| kuaera | Yes. | 17:12 |
| Dr_willis | heh | 17:12 |
| Dr_willis | twm --replace | 17:12 |
| Dr_willis | : | 17:12 |
| draik_ | I'm booting up right now | 17:12 |

| kuaera | I've been a *box fan ever since I started using Blackbox for Windows ~6 years ago >_>; | 17:13 |
| aaroncampbell | I have a problem when trying to restart my machine. I seems that it will no longer boot. It has a similar problem a lot, where it tries to boot from (0,0) instead of (1,0) whenever a new kernel is installed. I just edit that from grub and it usually boots fine. | 17:13 |
| kuaera | Maybe even 7-8 years. I forget. | 17:13 |
| draik_ | How do I go about getting openbox? | 17:13 |
| kuaera | 'sudo apt-get install openbox' from the terminal should do the trick | 17:14 |
| Dr_willis | amazing how simple linux can be. :) | 17:14 |
| draik_ | Last time, it froze on (Reading database... | 17:14 |
| draik_ | Seems to have completed this time | 17:15 |
| draik_ | This is through TTY1 | 17:15 |
| aaroncampbell | This time however, it said it got tired of waiting on the root drive and asked if it had the right root drive and asked if the wait time was set properly. It said it was waiting on /dev/disk/by-uuid/96.... and it dropped me to a shell | 17:15 |
| aaroncampbell | I looked and that uuid maps to sda1 which is the right drive. What can I do? | 17:15 |
| draik_ | I'm back at my prompt | 17:15 |
| draik_ | How do I get openbox to start now? | 17:16 |
| Dr_willis | kdm menu - sessions menu item | 17:16 |
| draik_ | Sessions are Default, KDE (previous) and Failsafe | 17:17 |
| Dr_willis | restart the KDM service | 17:17 |
| aaroncampbell | Weird, after pressing the reset on my system a few times, it happened every time. Then after all that looking around at the promt, I typed "exit" and it booted fine. | 17:18 |
| Dr_willis | sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 17:18 |
| draik_ | Thanks | 17:18 |
| Dr_willis | aaroncampbell, u You might want to be backing up any imporntant data.. :) | 17:18 |
| Dr_willis | aaroncampbell, last i had issues that weird.. the hd was dieing a slow death. | 17:18 |
| Dr_willis | Then again its always good idea to have backups | 17:18 |

| Paddy_EIRE | Does ubuntu have QT4.5 packages? | 17:19 |
| kuaera | It's lunchtime :( | 17:19 |
| Dr_willis | "Qiche" | 17:19 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 17:19 |
| draik_ | Oh well, I can deal with French | 17:19 |
| kuaera | Paddy_EIRE: Not yet. | 17:19 |
| Paddy_EIRE | ah ok | 17:19 |
| draik_ | Going into Openbox now | 17:19 |
| kuaera | Paddy_EIRE: Mostly because Qt4.5 hasn't be released yet... | 17:19 |
| kuaera | *been | 17:19 |
| draik_ | I think it may have frozen after providing my password. Nothing is happening. | 17:20 |
| aaroncampbell | But the diagnostics show they're fine, and the RAID is hardware and should perform decently even without one drive (as it has before when I've lost one) | 17:20 |
| Paddy_EIRE | kuaera hehe... silly me | 17:20 |
| Paddy_EIRE | :P | 17:20 |
| draik_ | Yep, froze. HDD light no longer flickering. | 17:20 |
| kuaera | Though, speak of the devil | 17:20 |
| kuaera | I'm compiling Qt4.5 right now :O | 17:20 |
| Paddy_EIRE | :) | 17:20 |
| Paddy_EIRE | the thought had crossed my mind | 17:20 |
| kuaera | It's not too challenging to compile it, really. | 17:21 |
| Paddy_EIRE | ./configure && make && make install | 17:21 |
| Paddy_EIRE | ? | 17:21 |
| kuaera | Pretty much. | 17:21 |
| Paddy_EIRE | I will read a little more on it | 17:21 |
| Paddy_EIRE | thanks though :) | 17:21 |
| kuaera | Except I do ./configure -no-exceptions -no-qt3support -nomake demos -nomake examples | 17:22 |
| draik_ | I like to add && echo SUCCESS! at the end just to make sure it all finished nicely. | 17:22 |

| hibana | mefisto__: but some tools do it better than others | 20:06 |

| Lummy | thanks, looks like it, except I'm not seeing an expected option. I have a logitech g15, the g15daemon is running, and according to what I've read, I should be able to select it. | 20:19 |
| DaSkreech | In Firefox? | 20:19 |
| geiseri | konqueror | 20:20 |
| geiseri | funny thing is other flash sites like growcube work just fine | 20:20 |
| iwannasave | geiseri: right click within the flash video, go to settings and increase the cache size to 1MB | 20:20 |
| Lummy | nm, found the option I was looking for. Thanks DaSkreech and Mefiso | 20:20 |
| Lummy | Mefisto! | 20:20 |
| DaSkreech | Where was it? | 20:20 |
| geiseri | iwannasave: if i rightclick and click the settings menu nothing happens | 20:20 |
| DaSkreech | Yeah I know youtube likes to keep it's flash realy really new which messes wit konqueror | 20:21 |
| Lummy | You were right. The g15daemon option I was hunting for was under "Logitech G15"... heh | 20:21 |
| iwannasave | geiseri: then flash plugin is not enabled for konq browser | 20:21 |
| DaSkreech | I find if I refresh Konqueror like 7-10 times it works | 20:21 |
| DaSkreech | normally I just open firefox and use it for youtube then close | 20:21 |
| geiseri | iwannasave: well i see the context menu... i just see a black screen | 20:21 |
| DaSkreech | Yeah same for me | 20:21 |
| geiseri | DaSkreech: well we are showing off KDE 4.2 on kubuntu this weekend | 20:22 |

| iwannasave | geiseri: do u see the flash plugin within the settings of konqueror? | 20:23 |
| drostie | Use wireshark to capture the HTTP header between your computer and youtube, and download the file directly with wget. ^_^ | 20:23 |
| zzillezz | why is the bar at the bottom of the screen not full width ? (jaunty alpha 4) ? | 20:23 |
| geiseri | iwannasave: yes, its using the closed source one too | 20:23 |
| geiseri | iwannasave: its strange i see a black screen, and i have more context menu options than i do with firefox | 20:23 |
| geiseri | iwannasave: but they dont do anything, its like flash is locked up | 20:24 |
| drostie | zzillezz: click the ying-yang icon on the left of the panel, and you should get options to resize it. | 20:24 |
| iwannasave | geiseri: not sure .... do u have any Ad-Blocks enabled? ... I had a similar problem with Firefox when I had AD-Block enabled | 20:24 |
| mefisto__ | ying-yang :) first time I've heard it called that | 20:24 |

| geiseri | DaSkreech: well i can see flash vids on 4.1 | 20:25 |
| DaSkreech | You will update Flash and it will work for a while then youtube updates and it breaks | 20:25 |
| geiseri | with stock intrepid | 20:25 |
| DaSkreech | You can refresh a few times and it works | 20:26 |
| iwannasave | geiseri: If your end goal is to download the you tube video, then use AcetoneISO2. It will not only download the youtube videos, but it has an option to convert FLV to AVI. | 20:26 |
| DaSkreech | I dunno Youtube is a crapshoot for me | 20:26 |

| zzillezz | what's the recommended solution for flash in jaunty alpha ? | 20:36 |
| zzillezz | alpha4 that is :) | 20:36 |
| drostie | zzillezz: I assume it's flash-plugin-nonfree, as always. | 20:37 |
| noren | i just finished installiing kubutu 8.10 from scratch, but awaiting some expert advice before trying to upgradde again | 20:37 |
| DaSkreech | Flash? | 20:37 |
| zzillezz | why not the adobe one ? | 20:37 |
| DaSkreech | noren: Did you have koffice installed? | 20:37 |
| DaSkreech | zzillezz: That is the adobe one | 20:37 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| zzillezz | the 64 bit one ? | 20:37 |
| fabio_ | hi...dist-upgrade does not upgrade all...all is up-to-date | 20:38 |
| zzillezz | i've been using mint for too long :-) | 20:38 |
| mefisto__ | actually, adobe-flashplugin is the new package name, but flashplugin-nonfree still works (but doesn't always upgrade properly) | 20:38 |
| noren | DaSkreech: i got only the default installed openoffice word | 20:38 |
| zzillezz | thanks, that was the name i was looking for :-) | 20:38 |
| DaSkreech | noren: Ok follow the instructions again and I'll help with any problems | 20:38 |
| Guest17074 | Hi people | 20:39 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Hmm ok what is the situation when you login ? | 20:39 |
| Guest17074 | Any reason why firefox-3.0 depends on gnome-support which itself brings half of GNOME ? | 20:39 |
| fabio_ | well...maybe is helpful...when i loging there is the black plasmoid showing all but the KDE logo. It does not appear | 20:39 |
| mefisto__ | Guest17074: it's a gtk app | 20:40 |
| fabio_ | then the jingle, then nothing...grey wallpaper with wite balls | 20:40 |
| fabio_ | white, sorry | 20:40 |
| Guest17074 | when I install firefox from the web site, I have not those dependancies | 20:40 |
| DaSkreech | Guest17074: Ubuntu bug take it up with #ubuntu-devel | 20:40 |
| Guest17074 | (at least I used not to have them... retrying) | 20:41 |
| drostie | Guest17074: firefox still installs anything that it's dependent on when you grab the tarball. | 20:41 |
| drostie | Guest17074: just without registering it as a package -- so, e.g., when you install GIMP, you'll have two copies of the GTK stuff floating around. | 20:41 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: yes but firefox in Ubuntu relies on ubufox which relies on Gnome support which relies on all of Gnome | 20:41 |
| fabio_ | i use nvidia...maybe drivers conflicting with kernel? | 20:41 |
| DaSkreech | It's an ubuntu bug | 20:41 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Maybe I've heard people say that | 20:41 |
| DaSkreech | you should get plasma though | 20:42 |
| fabio_ | how have I to do, DaSkrrech? | 20:42 |
| fabio_ | yes...I have something but unusable | 20:43 |
| drostie | DaSkreech: according to aptitude show, firefox-3.0 merely "suggests" ubufox and firefox-3.0-gnome-support, it doesn't depend on them. At least, not in jaunty -- may be different in intrepid. | 20:43 |
| fabio_ | no window devcoration, no panels, no menus | 20:43 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: Ubuntu installs suggests by default in Ibex onwards | 20:43 |
| Guest17074 | on intrepid it wanted to call firefox-3.0-gnome-support | 20:43 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: can you open a konsole ? | 20:43 |
| fabio_ | yes..but I have to exit konversation | 20:43 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Why ? | 20:44 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: You are running konversation from a console? | 20:44 |
| Guest17074 | ah you are correct, I have run a apt-cache depends, and it only "suggests" firefox-3.0-gnome-support | 20:45 |
| fabio_ | no from ALT-F2 | 20:45 |
| Guest17074 | so why is it calling half of gnome ? | 20:45 |
| mefisto__ | Guest17074: it's the good half :) | 20:45 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: you shouldn't need to close it then | 20:45 |
| fabio_ | if i want to use a konsole I have to exit konversation, and get konsole by ALT-F2 | 20:45 |
| noren | fabio_: did u also tried updating to kde4.2 and failed ?? | 20:45 |
| Guest17074 | ;-) | 20:45 |
| DaSkreech | Just alt+f2 and go again | 20:45 |
| fabio_ | no I am using Kde4.2 fsince beta | 20:46 |
| === szczepan is now known as Guest73937 | ||
| drostie | Guest17074: the best advice here is to just accept it. I also had that question and I decided that the extra megabytes weren't worth worrying about. | 20:46 |
| fabio_ | what have I to do in konsole, please? | 20:46 |
| drostie | Guest17074: but there might be a way to tell aptitude to not follow the "suggests" line. | 20:47 |
| fabio_ | i can only input inside one window. Or ALT-F2 or konversation | 20:47 |
| Guest17074 | strangely enough when now i download firefox from the web site, it requires libgnomeui-2.so (I did a strace) | 20:47 |
| noren | in my last try, after the unsuccessful update to kde4.2 my keyboard failed, also i had to close an application to staart another | 20:47 |
| Guest17074 | I was running firefox happy and uncaring up to today... | 20:47 |
| drostie | fabio_: switch dynamically to your teletypes. It's Ctrl-Alt-F1 to jump to one, Ctrl-Alt-F7 to return here. | 20:48 |
| drostie | fabio_: then you can run both together, probably. | 20:48 |
| Guest17074 | I just did an apt-get update && upgrade and now I'm running into these dependancy problems... ufff | 20:48 |
| fabio_ | ok...it works. me stoopid not having thought that | 20:48 |
| fabio_ | I am login into tty2 | 20:48 |
| DaSkreech | noren: You had to close an app to start another? | 20:49 |
| drostie | fabio_: what does [aptitude show kdebase-plasma] show? is plasma installed? | 20:50 |
| drostie | also, kdeplasma-addons and kdeplasma-addons-data, apparently. | 20:51 |
| Luija | ei guys, can someone tell me how to use wifi in kubuntu? (i am talking in vista because i cant use the konqueror) | 20:51 |
| ab | hello, i am facing a problem with one of my compaq laptop,regarding video driver | 20:51 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Oh!! I know what that is. Close konversation then type in kwin& | 20:51 |
| mefisto__ | Guest17074: you could install firefox with apt-get --no-install-recommends and see what it's like | 20:52 |
| DaSkreech | !wifi | 20:52 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 20:52 |
| mefisto__ | Guest17074: my guess is it will look ugly without them | 20:52 |
| drostie | Luija: intrepid or jaunty? | 20:52 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: you have no window manager | 20:53 |
| noren | Daksreech: Yes because i could only interact with the topmost window onn the desktop | 20:53 |
| DaSkreech | noren: You too? | 20:53 |
| Luija | drostie, is intrepid | 20:53 |
| drostie | DaSkreech: I think fabio was off in his/her teletype. | 20:53 |
| DaSkreech | ok lets try get that sorted out | 20:54 |
| Guest17074 | wow... I installed half of gnome, and firefox still does not work | 20:54 |
| Guest17074 | up to the apt-get update && upgrade from tonight everything worked fine | 20:54 |
| ab | is there is any one to help me regarding video driver | 20:54 |
| noren | yes DaSkreech | 20:55 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: run kwin | 20:55 |
| amgarching | what happend here on IRC? They dont let me in nether to #python nor to some other channels? | 20:55 |
| DaSkreech | noren: Ok I can get that working | 20:55 |
| DaSkreech | amgarching: you got banned | 20:55 |
| * DaSkreech shrugs | 20:55 | |
| mefisto__ | ab: what's the problem? | 20:56 |
| amgarching | DaSkreech: not really. I get this though I *am* identified: [21:51] [Channel] You need to be identified to join that channel | 20:56 |
| fabio_ | ok ...nothing seems to happen running kwin | 20:57 |
| ab | actually i had installed the driver provided by nvedia..but after getting logged in....screen get blanck | 20:57 |
| DaSkreech | amgarching: Ah ok | 20:57 |

| DaSkreech | fabio_: run konsole | 20:57 |
| DaSkreech | You should be able to move it around and click on the thing behind it | 20:58 |
| fabio_ | sorry for the daly...if i am in the alternative konsole and run kwin i get : cannot konnect to xserver | 20:58 |
| DaSkreech | Woah | 20:58 |
| DaSkreech | The alternative Konsole ? | 20:58 |
| fabio_ | no sorry the CTRL-ALT-F2 | 20:59 |
| fabio_ | another thing: i cannot having system setting to work and jockey-kde tells me there are no nvidia drivers running. | 21:01 |
| noren | test | 21:01 |
| DaSkreech | noren: try that with a ! in front of it | 21:02 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: ok Hold on | 21:02 |
| noren | !test | 21:02 |
| ubottu | sigh... again? I'm busy here, I already told you it failed. | 21:02 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: does alt+f2 work in alt+ctrl+F7 ? | 21:03 |
| fabio_ | yes DaSkreech, but I can type into if I have another application running | 21:03 |
| fabio_ | can't type into, sorry | 21:03 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: do you have konversation running now? | 21:03 |
| mefisto__ | noren and fabio_: can you hold alt down and move windows that way? | 21:03 |
| fabio_ | yep | 21:03 |
| fabio_ | no, i can not move windows | 21:04 |
| fabio_ | i have konversation running | 21:04 |
| noren | nope | 21:05 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: ok in alt+ctrl+F2 type in export X:0.0 | 21:06 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Wait | 21:06 |
| DaSkreech | export DISPLAY=:0.0 | 21:06 |
| DaSkreech | then type kwin & | 21:07 |
| DaSkreech | noren: you are here :) | 21:07 |
| noren | yes | 21:07 |
| fabio_ | ok. i got [1] 8471 | 21:08 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Ok can you move the konversation window now? | 21:08 |
| fabio_ | no. | 21:09 |
| DaSkreech | noren: Ok try the KDE 4.2 upgrade and I can help you fix it | 21:09 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: v_v | 21:09 |
| fabio_ | Da skreech...I'm sorry, thankyou for your help | 21:09 |
| DaSkreech | How did you start konversation? With alt+f2 ? | 21:09 |
| === rjb is now known as drbobb | ||
| fabio_ | yes, with alt-F2 | 21:10 |
| fabio_ | no menu... | 21:10 |
| DaSkreech | at the top? | 21:10 |
| fabio_ | nothing... | 21:10 |
| fabio_ | only the grey wallpaper you get when welcome plasmaoid loads | 21:10 |
| DaSkreech | anyway close it and use alt+f2 to run kwin then alt+f2 again to run konversation | 21:10 |
| === stelil is now known as nu2buntu | ||
| fabio_ | ok | 21:11 |
| drbobb | hello, whenever i launch something that loads the cpu heavily, my wireless promptly disconnects from the AP | 21:11 |
| drostie | If the wallpaper is gray, doesn't that mean they're stuck in kdm without a login screen? | 21:12 |
| === eric is now known as Guest64880 | ||
| drbobb | (using a broadcom card with the b43 driver) | 21:12 |
| drbobb | anyone know whether this is a driver issue, a networkmanager issue, or what? | 21:12 |
| noren | the lassst three times i tried to upgrade to KDE4.2 i had to download almost 350MB each time... is there a way around not to downloaad so much everytime | 21:12 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: not if alt+F2 works | 21:12 |
| DaSkreech | noren: Don't upgrade to KDE 4.2 ? | 21:13 |
| DaSkreech | Why did you have to do it every time? | 21:13 |
| fabio_ | hey! do you want to laugh? | 21:13 |
| drostie | drbobb: you can probably find out more by K > Applications > System > System Logs Viewer and then loading your CO | 21:13 |
| drostie | *CPU | 21:13 |
| fabio_ | all icons in ALT-F2 are one above the other...cannot get "run kwin" | 21:13 |
| drbobb | oh and btw every time i try to connect to a last.fm stream w/amarok, the wifi disconnects as well | 21:14 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Do you have kwin? | 21:14 |
| noren | every time the update krashed i had to start from a scratch and fresh install of Kubuntu 8.10 | 21:14 |
| DaSkreech | what does "which kwin" say in TTY2 ? | 21:14 |
| DaSkreech | noren: You could have just removed the repo and re grabbed packages from the normal main | 21:15 |
| drbobb | i know about reading logs, but they're not too informative | 21:15 |
| fabio_ | it seems so. In CTRL-ALT-F2 afrter exprting the variable DISPLAY i typed kwin& and i got: | 21:15 |
| fabio_ | [1] 8471 | 21:15 |
| drostie | drbobb: (that is, loading your CPU up until it drops a connection.) | 21:15 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| DaSkreech | fabio_: and which kwin gives an output? | 21:16 |
| drbobb | RX deauthentication (reason=7), like i knew what reason 7 means | 21:16 |
| fabio_ | yes | 21:16 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: You still can't move konversation though? | 21:16 |
| drostie | drbobb: well, you're asking people who have absolutely no information. Even only vaguely-informative logs improves our information content infinitely. | 21:16 |
| fabio_ | "/usr/bin/kwin" segmentation fault | 21:16 |
| drbobb | well i was hoping someone had seen that on his own system, and researched it | 21:17 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Ah that's not good at all | 21:17 |
| fabio_ | i think so :-) | 21:17 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: sudo apt-get install kwin --reinstall | 21:18 |
| drostie | drbobb: and you asked us as opposed to, say, google or ubuntuforums? :-P | 21:18 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Ooooh wait. Do you have compositing on? | 21:18 |
| drbobb | well had i found an answer there i wouldn't be here | 21:18 |
| fabio_ | yes...but i have launched the reinstallation... | 21:19 |
| drbobb | (and the effect is kind of annoying as you may imagine) | 21:19 |
| fabio_ | and i has terminated... | 21:19 |
| DaSkreech | It terminated? | 21:20 |
| DaSkreech | with what error? | 21:20 |
| fabio_ | No all OK. | 21:20 |
| drostie | drbobb: yeah, understandable. Is your laptop (or a very similar model number) covered by the LaptopTestingTeam at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam ? | 21:20 |
| drostie | There may be a better driver out there for you; I dunno. | 21:20 |
| fabio_ | reinstallation worked. | 21:20 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: ok do you have compositing on? lets turn that off | 21:20 |
| drbobb | (oh and sometimes the wifi refuses to reconnect until i unload & reload the driver) | 21:20 |
| DaSkreech | The laptop testing team is defunc as far as I know | 21:20 |
| fabio_ | Ok. It's impossible for me turning compositing off. System setting does not load any window | 21:21 |
| fabio_ | there is another command? | 21:21 |
| drbobb | DaSkreech: seems so, my model was once reported there but the most recent report i saw was ancient | 21:21 |
| muxomor | Hallo, i got a question about psad - is it ever possible to specifyinternal mail - root@localhost, as it was by default, but error is "Could not find mail, edit /etc/psad/psad.conf at /usr/sbin/psad line 9467. | 21:21 |
| drbobb | and basically only said installation completes correctly and all seems to work fine (my experience as well) | 21:22 |
| muxomor | i typed two internal mails and external too, but it still doesnt want to s send me logs | 21:22 |
| Guest92887 | ok I have the solution (firefox needing half of GNOME because of dependancies), does that interest people here ? | 21:22 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: yes in tty run nano ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc | 21:22 |
| DaSkreech | and look for the line Enabled=true under [Compositing] | 21:23 |
| DaSkreech | Change that to false and save | 21:23 |
| DaSkreech | Guest92887: yes | 21:23 |
| Guest92887 | first, "apt-get --no-install-recommends install firefox-3.0" is cool, it avoids bringing all these dependancies in | 21:23 |
| drbobb | (back in breezy times it did require some funky workarounds though) | 21:24 |
| Guest92887 | second, the cause of the problem was that firefox could not access to X server, it kept failing reading the socket | 21:24 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: yes in tty run nano ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc | 21:24 |
| DaSkreech | and look for the line Enabled=true under [Compositing] | 21:24 |
| DaSkreech | Change that to false and save | 21:24 |
| Guest92887 | closing the X session and reopening it solved the problem | 21:24 |
| Guest92887 | what puzzles me, is why doing apt-get update && apt-get upgrade could cause such a problem of accessing the X server | 21:25 |
| Guest92887 | it sounds completly unrelated to me | 21:25 |
| Laeborg | how does i unrar a .part01.rar, .part02.rar ect file? | 21:25 |
| DaSkreech | !rar | 21:26 |
| ubottu | rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 21:26 |
| drostie | drbobb: ouch. hrm. well, my aspire 5000 had a broadcom card, and I think I was running bm43 on it without a cpu-causes-connection-drops problem. | 21:26 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: did that? | 21:26 |
| fabio_ | sorry...everythingh gere stoppd working | 21:26 |
| fabio_ | i am just reconnected... | 21:26 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Ok did you see my instructions ? | 21:26 |
| drbobb | drostie: yes, mine is a series 5000 aspire indeed | 21:26 |
| fabio_ | tell me please DaSkreech, sorry | 21:26 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: yes in tty run nano ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc | 21:27 |
| DaSkreech | and look for the line Enabled=true under [Compositing] | 21:27 |
| DaSkreech | Change that to false and save | 21:27 |
| Laeborg | ah unrar-free doesnt work, but unrar does :S | 21:27 |
| DaSkreech | Sounds about right | 21:27 |
| drbobb | the broadcom used to work only under ndiswrapper in the past | 21:28 |
| Guest92887 | I don't know if this solution report is helpful DaSkreech... :-( | 21:28 |
| Guest92887 | but apt-get --no-install-recommends install firefox-3.0 is really cool ;-) thanks again | 21:28 |
| drbobb | currently b43 works ok, except for the problem i mentioned | 21:28 |
| drostie | But probably the best thing you could do is to join the channel #bcm-users and ask there. | 21:28 |
| DaSkreech | Guest92887: Helps me. see if you can post that in the ubuntuforums. Makes it more permanent | 21:28 |
| DaSkreech | noren: You reinstall everytime ? | 21:29 |
| drbobb | drostie: thx i wasn't aware of that channel | 21:29 |
| Guest92887 | wow, I already posted on the forums, but never started a new thread... | 21:29 |
| fabio_ | iDaskreech. No line telling that | 21:30 |
| fabio_ | no [Compositing] | 21:30 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: do you have a section that says [Compositing] ? | 21:30 |
| DaSkreech | ok | 21:30 |
| noren | ya dis is the third time | 21:30 |
| DaSkreech | you probably have it off then | 21:30 |
| fabio_ | only [Plugins] | 21:30 |
| drostie | drbobb: there's a site at http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 for the driver; I just stole the channel from there. I've no idea how active it is. | 21:30 |
| DaSkreech | noren: Is it easier to do that than just sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 ? | 21:30 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: Ok that's fine I think | 21:31 |
| DaSkreech | but kwin& still segfaults? | 21:31 |
| fabio_ | how can I remove --purge all kde? | 21:31 |
| drbobb | ok will see | 21:31 |
| noren | will that take me to the olddeeer ver i.e kubuntu 8.10 | 21:31 |
| Laeborg | any programs to "mount" a .daa file ? | 21:31 |
| DaSkreech | noren: it will if you remove the experimental ppa | 21:32 |
| fabio_ | no kwin does not segfaults | 21:32 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 | 21:33 |
| drostie | Laeborg: daa2iso? | 21:33 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: So you can move konversation now? | 21:33 |
| jordi_ | hola | 21:33 |
| fabio_ | then for reinstall? | 21:33 |
| jordi_ | español? | 21:33 |
| fabio_ | kde4-desktop? | 21:33 |
| fabio_ | kubuntu-desktop? | 21:33 |
| DaSkreech | fabio_: no sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 21:33 |
| fabio_ | ok, da skreech . Bye bye. | 21:33 |
| fabio_ | Thankyou for your help. | 21:34 |

| Laeborg | whats wrong there ? | 21:37 |
| DaSkreech | Why do you need sudo ? | 21:37 |
| Laeborg | else it says pemisson denied | 21:38 |
| DaSkreech | wierd. Ok | 21:38 |
| jordi_ | no help in spanish channel :( | 21:38 |
| Laeborg | but how does the poweriso thingy works? | 21:39 |
| * DaSkreech shrugs | 21:39 | |
| DaSkreech | jordi_: Ask in here if you like but it's only english in here | 21:39 |
| jordi_ | ok | 21:39 |
| drostie | Laeborg: what's wrong there is that you're using a cracked version of photoshop instead of GIMP. | 21:39 |
| drostie | ^_^ | 21:39 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: Good point | 21:40 |
| jordi_ | Is it possible to prevent the access to the partitions of windows? | 21:40 |
| DaSkreech | Yes | 21:41 |
| DaSkreech | read up on fstab | 21:41 |
| DaSkreech | !fstab | 21:41 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 21:41 |
| genii | Laeborg: Incidentally, conversation of illegal activities such as key generators, etc is not allowable in this channel. | 21:41 |
| jordi_ | I have installed kubuntu inside windows | 21:42 |
| DaSkreech | Oh Hmm | 21:42 |
| DaSkreech | I don't know but I think it should be the same | 21:42 |
| jordi_ | I am going to investigate | 21:42 |
| DaSkreech | genii: on a technicallity he's asking for help on poweriso not on the warez he's using it on | 21:43 |
| drostie | jordi: if windows is not encrypted (criptografia) somehow, then kubuntu can probably always access the windows partitions. | 21:43 |
| genii | DaSkreech: Then he should use a different file hierarchy example | 21:43 |
| jordi_ | If I unmont the discs already is not it possible to accede to them not? | 21:44 |
| DaSkreech | genii: yes he should have but had he done that we would be helping him still | 21:45 |
| drostie | jordi_: even if you [umount /dev/hda1] , or something like it, someone later could always [sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/disk]. But, they need to be able to use sudo. | 21:45 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: Yes but you can restrict who can get that access | 21:45 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: You can only allow certain UIDs etc | 21:45 |
| genii | Laeborg: Incidentally the error in your syntax is of putting the the -od switch in between the target and sources | 21:46 |
| drostie | just after he leaves you help him out? ^_^ classy. | 21:47 |
| jordi_ | yes i want something as this, restrict the acces with a password, for example | 21:47 |
| genii | drostie: Heh...to be fair I had started typing much earlier on than that :) | 21:47 |
| === itsupport is now known as Rictos | ||
| drostie | :-D | 21:47 |
| mefisto__ | poweriso isn't part of kubuntu anyway, is it? | 21:47 |
| genii | mefisto__: Correct | 21:47 |
| drostie | mefisto__: but wikipedia says that PowerISO is distributed for Linux, so... | 21:48 |
| jordi_ | Only that could not touch anything of windows for mistake | 21:48 |
| drostie | I mean, wrong channel, sure, but it's not like what they were saying was impossible. | 21:48 |
| Guest92887 | DaSkreech: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3101752.0 | 21:49 |
| DaSkreech | Guest92887: Nice | 21:49 |
| Guest92887 | thanks to all nice folks here ;-) | 21:50 |
| drostie | jordi_: You should make sure that people cannot boot into your computer with a CD or USB key. You should also make sure that they cannot use the "sudo" command on your computer. Then they cannot mount your hard drive themselves. | 21:50 |
| DaSkreech | jordi_: Well they have to have sudo access by default. Only the first user has sudo so no one will be able to get to the Windows directory except the first user | 21:50 |
| DaSkreech | jordi_: It can't touch anything in Windows by mistake | 21:51 |
| drostie | jordi_: then, to make the windows partition not load on bootup, comment it out (put a # symbol in front of it) in /etc/fstab, if it exists there. | 21:51 |
| drostie | jordi_: (or remove the line completely.) | 21:52 |
| jordi_ | but i can enter to windows partitons/disc/folders and modify now | 21:52 |
| jordi_ | only i need to create another user? | 21:52 |
| DaSkreech | jordi_: in the file /etc/fstab find the line with that path and put a # in front of it and save | 21:54 |
| DaSkreech | You will be ok after that | 21:54 |
| drostie | Yes. Two steps. (1) Create another user. This user does not have the rights that you have. (2) Make sure that the partition is not mounted by default. This requires editing /etc/fstab. | 21:54 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| drostie | The line you want to place the # symbol in front of will probably say "ntfs" (or maybe "vfat," "fat," or "fat32") in the third column. | 21:56 |
| jordi_ | i don't see any ntfs... | 21:57 |
| drostie | jordi_: can you paste your /etc/fstab into http://paste.ubuntu.com/ for us to see? | 21:58 |
| jordi_ | i put my name? | 21:59 |
| jordi_ | in poster? | 21:59 |
| drostie | DaSkreech: you probably know more about this than I: even when you don't specify something in /etc/fstab, when you plug in e.g. a USB key, there's a pop-up window that lets you select the partition and mount from there. | 21:59 |
| drostie | jordi_: just "jordi_" is ok. We know who you are. ^_^ | 22:00 |
| DaSkreech | That's udev | 22:00 |
| drostie | DaSkreech: could udev be leveraged to mount a windows partition somehow? | 22:00 |
| jordi_ | done | 22:00 |
| DaSkreech | jordi_: give us the URL here when it's finished | 22:00 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: If it's USB | 22:00 |
| jordi_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/119840/ | 22:01 |
| jordi_ | ok | 22:01 |
| drostie | jordi_: ok, you're safe. the windows partition isn't in /etc/fstab. How are you navigating through it right now? | 22:01 |
| drostie | jordi_: did you type [sudo mount /dev/hda1] or something like that? | 22:02 |
| jordi_ | no | 22:02 |
| jordi_ | but the 2 hd ntfs appears in dolphin | 22:03 |
| drostie | If you right-click the path and choose "Edit...", what is the total pathname? (It looks like "/media/disk" or so.) | 22:04 |
| drostie | ("the path" means "the list of directories that tells you where in the directory scheme Dolphin is") | 22:05 |
| jordi_ | is for me? | 22:05 |
| DaSkreech | yes | 22:05 |
| jordi_ | i don't understand sorry | 22:06 |

| drostie | wikipedia for translating, w00t. ^_^ | 22:13 |
| DaSkreech | Ha ha | 22:13 |
| drostie | I'm serious. I know this is off-topic, but I described a platypus to a Nederlander, and they didn't believe me that such a creature existed, until I used Wikipedia to translate the word "platypus" into Nederlands. | 22:14 |

| KomiaPoika | in kde 4.2.0 i set the screensaver to autostart after 120 mins and no password lock. but it keeps starting after 10 mins and locks password. how can i fix this?? | 22:16 |
| DaSkreech | drostie: yes I've done that before | 22:18 |
| * Secutor is away: Gone away for now. | 22:18 | |
| drostie | KomiaPoika: if you set it via K > System Settings > Desktop, then you might still need to change K > System Settings > Advanced > Power Management or vice versa. | 22:18 |
| KomiaPoika | drostie: in power management, i turned off powerdevil already | 22:19 |

| === root is now known as Guest81627 | ||
| KomiaPoika | drostie: oh wait i think i found a stray settings, the management profile | 22:20 |
| drostie | I don't think PowerDevil makes a difference if the rest of the Power Management settings still tell it to suspend to RAM and then lock the screen on resumes. | 22:21 |
| KomiaPoika | drostie: its a desktop pc, how can i make sure it's running the "performance" profile at all times? | 22:24 |
| drostie | Power Management > General Settings, click "performance" for all of the four options there. | 22:25 |
| drostie | its kinda confusing, I know ^_^ | 22:26 |
| mefisto__ | or maybe disable the powerdevil service? | 22:26 |

| DaSkreech | JuJuBee: Doesn't say what wifi card it has which is normally the most annoying | 23:24 |
| coteyr | maco; if you find out let me know. | 23:27 |
| coteyr | maco; I was never able to figure out how to apply "all" the kde colors to gtk, and I use a dark scheme so skype, and firefox, the gtk file browser always had black and while stripes. | 23:28 |
| maco | eh? skype's not gtk | 23:28 |
| coteyr | maco; you sure? | 23:29 |
| maco | yeah...i'm pretty sure skype's qt | 23:29 |
| maco | http://www.qtsoftware.com/qt-in-use/story/app/skype | 23:29 |
| coteyr | maco; thats even worse then | 23:29 |
| coteyr | maco; I can't help you at all, I can even get kde all one color | 23:30 |
| maco | heh | 23:30 |
| maco | i think skypte is qt3 though | 23:30 |
| maco | probably why its not matching your qt4 system | 23:30 |
| JuJuBee | DaSkreech : Right, thanks. I will check that. What about the other stuff? Video nVidia 9800M ? | 23:30 |
| coteyr | maco; well now the enivatable question, how doe one edit the qt3 color scheme | 23:31 |
| coteyr | JuJuBee; other then some heat issues Nvidia cards have been 100% on linux for a while. | 23:31 |
| DaSkreech | That woks as well as the next nVidia update. Stuff like that is just your judgement on the company's support so far | 23:31 |
| mefisto__ | maco: do you have gtk styles & fonts in systemsettings > appearance? | 23:31 |
| coteyr | JuJuBee; but there linux drivers != their windows drivers, there are some diffrences, mostly in throtteling and cooling. | 23:32 |
| maco | mefisto__: i have it set to use ClearlooksClassic for GTK | 23:32 |

| drostie | How would I check what wireless adapter's in my computer? I can't remember where I found it last time I looked. | 23:37 |

| maco | JuJuBee: someone said above that they have the intel 5100 and it works out of the box. intel wifi pretty much always does. atheros, there are 2 possible drivers, so you might need to install the linux-backports-modules package, but that's it | 23:51 |
| JuJuBee | K, sounds like this is a good one then. Thanks for the help. | 23:52 |
| Xenos | It doesn't mind them being plugged in now (detects fine etc), but froze installation on drive detection bit every time until I plugged them out. (The USB drives) | 23:52 |
