| jamesjedimaster | khalidmian> there is skype | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| sant | videochat ? | 00:00 |
| khalidmian | jamesjedimaster: voicechat via skype only? | 00:00 |
| khalidmian | what about video confrencing | 00:00 |
| drostie | mefisto__: I have no idea whether just overwriting the relevant bytes would fix anything or not. | 00:01 |
| mefisto__ | khalidmian: kopete doesn't work? | 00:01 |
| khalidmian | kopete for voice? | 00:01 |
| armymania | naaber | 00:01 |
| armymania | hic turkce konusan varmi burda | 00:01 |
| drostie | I've been kind of distant because I'm still trying to make sense of the (cylinders,heads) etc info that's given in the MBR. | 00:02 |
| khalidmian | oh u mean kopete for video confrencing | 00:02 |
| khalidmian | lol so i use kopete for video confrencing and skype for voice? is there something that does both at same time | 00:03 |
| mefisto__ | khalidmian: I don't really know what kopete can do. don't really use it. I was just asking you | 00:03 |
| khalidmian | mefisto__: never used kopete for video confrencing | 00:04 |
| talvik | since the last update my kde 4.2 apps (kubuntu pakages), are trying to access libs from my kde svn build. Does someone have kde4.2 packages and kde svn in ~/kde folder? | 00:04 |
| DaSkreech | Skype does video conferencing | 00:05 |
| khalidmian | DaSkreech: sudo apt-get install skype i assume | 00:06 |
| khalidmian | ? | 00:06 |
| DaSkreech | !skype | 00:06 |
| ubottu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto | 00:06 |
| DaSkreech | Also Skype has the latest Linux version on the site in .deb | 00:07 |
| drostie | blech. I'm too tired to follow that much more. --_--;; gothpaw, you might want to ask someone to help you through using gparted, if possible, to resize the main partition. I don't know if gparted preserves file integrity on vfat or not, you'll have to ask someone else. | 00:17 |
| drostie | You might be able to fix the problem by pointing your MBR record (look up MBR on wikipedia to get the format) at the "limit" specified in your /var/log/messages, namely, 488397168 (= 0x1D1C5970) | 00:18 |
| drostie | At least, that might stop the kernel from trying to access the area outside of the partition and then complaining when it can't do so. | 00:19 |
| gothpaw | drostie: well I really do appreciate all your help. Thank you | 00:20 |
| Barridus | hi guys, trying my hand with KDE (used gnome a bit). the bottom bar seems to appear but then vanish before i can do anything with it. doesn't appear when i move the mouse to any corner or edge. anyone can help please? | 00:20 |
| drostie | Make sure you keep around enough information to undo any work that you do. the [sudo dd if=/dev/sdd of=/home/gothpaw/mbrbackup bs=512 count=1] command will write a physical backup to your local disk. | 00:21 |
| GWild | Barridus: Is this Intrepid w/ Kde 4.1 or 4.2? | 00:21 |
| mefisto__ | gothpaw: I've got a feeling you would have a similar problem with gparted. that is, gparted not reading the partition | 00:21 |
| mefisto__ | gothpaw: but if you can get gparted to read the partition, see if you can copy the partition to another disk, so your data is safe in case disaster strikes | 00:22 |
| Barridus | gwild, i have no idea honestly, there's not enough of a gui for me to see anything. is there a console command that will say? | 00:22 |
| mahero | algun ubuntero de Mexico | 00:24 |
| Barridus | i literally installed the kubuntu-desktop package, logged into a KDE session, played with it for like half an hour, then poof XD | 00:24 |
| mefisto__ | Barridus: kquitapp plasma | 00:26 |
| mefisto__ | Barridus: rm ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-appletsrc | 00:26 |
| mefisto__ | Barridus: plasma (to start it again) | 00:27 |
| Barridus | /bin/sh: kquitapp: not found | 00:28 |
| mefisto__ | Barridus: whereis kquitapp ?? | 00:29 |
| gothpaw | mefisto__: I do fear you are correct as when I run 'sudo parted -l' when it gets to the drive in question it states 'Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!' | 00:30 |
| === sant is now known as sant82 | ||
| Barridus | mefisto__, i have no idea. maybe my kde busted? i have no idea how, though | 00:30 |
| mefisto__ | Barridus: that's a command: whereis kquitapp it should come back with /usr/bin/kquitapp | 00:31 |
| gothpaw | drostie: would that just backup the MBR or the whole drive? | 00:31 |
| drostie | [man dd] will tell you that bs * count = the number of bytes backed up. (in this case, just the first 512 bytes.) | 00:33 |
| gothpaw | drostie: ok, thats what I was thinking, just wanted to clarify | 00:34 |
| drostie | *nods* | 00:35 |
| mefisto__ | gothpaw: installing testdisk might give you more info on the problem too. it supposedly can fix partition problems as well, but I've never used it so you might want to google it if you decide to repair with it | 00:37 |
| cjae | has anyone here got separate xscreens working, I see that there was a bunch of updates out for the experimental respository (ppa. -kde 4.2) but adept doesn't tell you what it fixes, if its just security or if it fixes these issues | 00:38 |
| gothpaw | mefisto__: apparently it can repair alot of errors as such to what I am having issues with. read up on it via wiki... at this point I will do whatever it takes so long as the data is saved. (I wish this was a drive with some not so Vital data on it, sighs) | 00:39 |
| cjae | when I do separates x screens via tv -out I only get a black screen with an x mouse but cannot do anything on the tv | 00:39 |
| mefisto__ | gothpaw: testdisk actually might make it easy to fix. I've just been playing with it on a usb thumb drive | 00:40 |
| cjae | I have even put an old xorg.conf that worked reliabley for many ubuntu distros, but not the new kde | 00:41 |
| gothpaw | mefisto__: installing testdisk right now | 00:42 |
| mefisto__ | gothpaw: just be cautious | 00:43 |
| Barridus | mefisto__, 'whereis kquitapp' just returned 'kquitapp:' | 00:45 |
| mefisto__ | Barridus: try to install kubuntu-desktop again. seems you don't have everything installed | 00:46 |
| Barridus | strange | 00:46 |
| Barridus | ok i guess i'll try that, mefisto__. thanks | 00:47 |
| mefisto__ | Barridus: do you have /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kquitapp ? | 00:47 |
| sreich | How do I enable file sharing in kde4-kubuntu ibex? Should I use NFS? | 00:52 |
| elizabeth | good afternoon 2 u all guys, i loke to ask 4 help again, ive been trying to configure my wireless card but it seems everything i do just dont work, i have laptop COMPAQ PRESARIO SERIES V3000 MODEL V3417LA. | 00:53 |
| elizabeth | i did just install kubuntu intrepid again fresh installation but it just wont detect the wireless card | 00:54 |
| elizabeth | in windows when downloading the drivers it says BROADCOM 802.11 sp39912.exe | 00:54 |
| elizabeth | and they work but in Kubuntu DO NOT EVEN DETECT WIRELESS CARD is there someone that can help me to configure this please??? | 00:55 |
| jamesjedimaster | elizabeth> i have the same v3417la model, but i haven't upgraded to intrepid ibex | 00:56 |
| jamesjedimaster | elizabeth> what i know is that you must have all packages up to date, so the system can detect the broadcom hardware to use it | 00:57 |
| ActionParsnip1 | yo yo yo | 00:58 |
| elizabeth | i do | 00:59 |
| elizabeth | but it wont detect the wireless card | 00:59 |
| jamesjedimaster | does it only detect the nvidia card? | 01:00 |
| elizabeth | i just did a fresh new installation again and made all updates, but just wont detect wireless card | 01:00 |
| elizabeth | yes | 01:00 |
| elizabeth | it only detect nvidia cards | 01:00 |
| jamesjedimaster | have you installed 8.04 on that laptop? | 01:01 |
| ActionParsnip1 | elizabeth: is it an internal device or usb? | 01:01 |
| mefisto__ | elizabeth: did you get it working before reinstalling? | 01:01 |
| elizabeth | internal device | 01:03 |
| elizabeth | ir | 01:03 |
| elizabeth | it comes by factory with it | 01:04 |
| jamesjedimaster | elizabeth> have you installed 8.04 on that laptop? | 01:04 |
| elizabeth | just once with kubuntu | 01:04 |
| elizabeth | s | 01:04 |
| elizabeth | but xomehow they got lost and since then i have been trying to getthem v | 01:04 |

| mefisto__ | elizabeth: sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter | 01:05 |
| elizabeth | and followgin some wikiwifi on ubuntu and several other trick but none of them owrk | 01:05 |
| elizabeth | yes but kubuntu 8.04 is the same wont detect it | 01:05 |
| jamesjedimaster | elizabeth> in my laptop with 8.04 i had to reboot several times to get the wireless hardware detected, maybe you have to do that too | 01:06 |
| elizabeth | ok let me c f it works th | 01:06 |
| elizabeth | xs | 01:06 |

| === ubuntu__ is now known as Poker | ||
| icarus | ok, so I want to get in on the KDE 4.2 action because the UI looks so gorgeous. I've installed KDE 4.2 over Ubuntu 8.1. Is installing Kubuntu 8.1 worth it ? | 01:10 |
| === Poker is now known as Poker-alho | ||
| mefisto__ | icarus: huh? didn't you say you've installed it? | 01:13 |
| icarus | mefisto__: well, I've installed KDE 4.2 over Ubuntu 8.1 but I'm wondering if there is any advantage of actually getting Kubuntu 8.1 | 01:13 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: oh I see. I don't think it would be any different. kubuntu == ubuntu with kde | 01:14 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: except you would have no gnome desktop | 01:15 |
| icarus | mefisto__: all right, 'cause I was trying to install Amarok 2 (and I still can't) and the instruction started talking about adaptec or something | 01:16 |
| drostie | icarus: actually, it might be a little worse. 8.10 runs on KDE 4.1, and it's only Jaunty 9.04 running on 4.2. | 01:17 |
| drostie | Not everyone has made the transition from 4.1 to 4.2 on 8.10 successfully. | 01:17 |
| icarus | drostie: all right, so I'll stick with Ubuntu 8.1 + KDE 4.2 | 01:18 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: yes, you would have to do the 4.2 update on kubuntu 8.10 too | 01:18 |
| drostie | adaptec is a hardware manufacturer for RAID and the like. Maybe you mean the adept package manager? | 01:19 |
| icarus | drostie: hum yes | 01:20 |
| icarus | drostie: it's like synaptic ? | 01:20 |
| drostie | Basically, except it comes in two flavors: Too Basic, and Too Much Info. | 01:21 |
| icarus | hum I see, so is that like the main difference ? ubuntu uses synpatic, kubuntu goes with adept ? | 01:21 |
| drostie | I believe synaptic is automatically installed on kubuntu as well. Not sure, but I believe. | 01:23 |
| drostie | But adept is the one marked prominently on the K menu. | 01:23 |
| mefisto__ | no, I don't think synaptic is installed with kubuntu | 01:23 |
| drostie | (I'm basing this entirely on a line saying "automatically installed: yes" in aptitude, but I'm not sure exactly what that line means.) | 01:24 |
| icarus | ok well, I've used synpatic to get adept so I know have sorta full-fledged Kubuntu, having KDE4.2 + Adept ? | 01:26 |
| icarus | also, I'm so confused about installing Amarok 2? any of you guys installed ? | 01:27 |
| drostie | My amarok is 2.2.0.1 ... what's your issue with it? | 01:27 |
| DaddyLonglegs | Is "compensate" used correctly here? "The extra assignment will compensate the marks you lost on your midterm". | 01:29 |
| icarus | drostie: hum well, synpatic isn't offering me any 2.0 versions of Amarok | 01:29 |
| icarus | DaddyLonglegs: I'd say yes | 01:30 |
| DaddyLonglegs | Thanks icarus. | 01:30 |
| Dragnslcr | Should be "compensate for" | 01:30 |
| drostie | no. When compensate is used with a direct object, that direct object is the thing which is compensated. | 01:30 |
| drostie | Usually a person. | 01:30 |
| compilerwriter | Anyone know if Python 3 supports threading? | 01:31 |
| drostie | You compensate an employee for their time, for example. | 01:31 |
| icarus | so it would be "will compensate for the marks" ? | 01:32 |
| javimansilla | Hi there | 01:32 |
| wildbat | hi | 01:32 |
| icarus | hi there | 01:32 |
| icarus | drostie: how did you install amarok 2 ? via synpatic ? adept ? .deb package ? | 01:33 |
| DaddyLonglegs | drostie: You also think my senstence was correct? | 01:33 |
| wildbat | how do i make powerbutton show a menu instead of shutting down directly | 01:33 |
| javimansilla | How do I see what's new on an upgradable package? I mean... now I see that I can download konsole4:4.2.0-0. What changes, fixes, improvements should I expect installing that package? | 01:33 |
| DaddyLonglegs | Duh! I was gonna ask that question in English channel! Silly me! | 01:34 |
| drostie | icarus: it's in the jaunty repos, not the intrepid repos. If you have the dependencies in order, you could download from http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/amarok | 01:35 |
| DaddyLonglegs | Sorry guys! | 01:35 |
| icarus | drostie: does it not check for dependencies ? | 01:35 |
| drostie | DaddyLonglegs: Your sentence was incorrect. | 01:35 |
| drostie | But most English speakers will know what you meant. | 01:36 |
| DaddyLonglegs | drostie: I see. It should be "compensate for". Thanks anyways. | 01:36 |
| drostie | icarus: it will check for dependencies, but it might get cranky if it doesn't see the right stuff in its normal repos, I don't know. | 01:37 |
| icarus | man, this KDE4.2 really rocks solid! I'd go as far as to say that with the right themes, it outcandies MaxOsx and Win7 | 01:37 |
| icarus | drostie: will see, this install I'm using it on is beta orgy | 01:37 |
| drostie | icarus: we still need to have the Really Slick Screensavers ports installed by default as part of KDE ^_^ | 01:40 |
| nazareno | oi | 01:41 |
| drostie | they're in a package called rss-glx. | 01:42 |
| cjae | !ktouch | 01:44 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ktouch | 01:44 |
| cjae | !info ktouch | 01:44 |
| ubottu | ktouch (source: kdeedu): touch typing tutor for KDE 4. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.1.4-0ubuntu1~intrepid1 (intrepid), package size 1791 kB, installed size 4184 kB | 01:45 |
| cjae | does anyone know where lessons for ktouch are, did a locate search and only see .png and .xml but they all look like just part of the application | 01:46 |
| icarus | any awesome torrent clients you guys would recommend ? | 01:48 |
| cjae | ktorrent work very well and has an ip blocker built in but sucks for importing many torrents at a time | 01:49 |
| drostie | deluge is good, but it's GTK, which works but doesn't look quite natural. (See also: Firefox.) | 01:49 |
| cjae | qt is supposed to be the utorrent (windows) for linux I think but is still under development | 01:50 |
| cjae | haven't used deluge since edgy but it really sucked then | 01:50 |
| icarus | man utorrent tocls | 01:51 |
| icarus | rocks* | 01:51 |
| Staind | holaa | 01:52 |
| eliadosom | hola Hi | 01:52 |
| cjae | because it is small enough for windows to handle with a lot of torrents in it | 01:52 |
| drostie | ktorrent has a plasma widget in the repos, apparently. | 01:52 |
| cjae | ever used azureus with 50 torrents in it? sucks ass | 01:53 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| icarus | I hate azureus | 01:54 |
| cjae | utorrent works with wine | 01:54 |
| cjae | !wine | 01:54 |
| ubottu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help | 01:54 |
| icarus | cjae: does it work smoothly ? | 01:54 |
| cjae | very except for auto update | 01:55 |
| cjae | which may work now, idon't know | 01:55 |
| drostie | ooh! qbittorrent is pretty ^_^ | 01:55 |
| wildbat | how do i make powerbutton show a menu instead of shutting down directly | 01:56 |
| drostie | Isn't pressing the power button treated like an escape sequence? Gets caught at the lowest levels etc. etc.? | 01:57 |
| mefisto__ | !info qbitttorrent | 01:57 |
| ubottu | Package qbitttorrent does not exist in intrepid | 01:57 |
| mefisto__ | !info qbittorrent | 01:57 |
| ubottu | Package qbittorrent does not exist in intrepid | 01:57 |
| drostie | (jaunty ftw!) ^_^ | 01:58 |
| icarus | man, I'm starting to be such a eye candy whore | 01:58 |
| drostie | http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/qbittorrent | 01:58 |
| Wargasmic | i've always thought kde was ugly. 4.2 is starting to change my mind. | 01:58 |
| cjae | Transmission is the GTK-based default BitTorrent client in Ubuntu (Gnome). KTorrent can be used in Kubuntu. This was very much like utorrent in feisty but was too new | 01:58 |
| icarus | yes qbittorrent looks nice, all I see in client torrents is the UI, I don't know enough | 01:59 |
| mefisto__ | oh jaunty | 01:59 |
| cjae | mefisto__: using or wishing for? | 01:59 |
| Wargasmic | i like transmission | 01:59 |
| icarus | transmission is a little simplistic | 02:00 |
| cjae | so is utorrent | 02:00 |
| Wargasmic | not really | 02:00 |
| Wargasmic | under the surface they are just as good as any other client | 02:00 |
| icarus | but qbittorrent looks a lot like the utorrent :) | 02:00 |
| Wargasmic | there's ways to do complicated things | 02:00 |
| mefisto__ | cjae: waiting for official release. just got curious about qbittorrent | 02:00 |
| cjae | me too | 02:00 |
| icarus | all right, utorrent I guess | 02:02 |
| Wargasmic | utorrent is good | 02:02 |
| Wargasmic | but i've never tried it on linux | 02:02 |
| BluesKaj | utorrent runs very well in wine ...used it for a while , but ktorrent does the job now . | 02:04 |
| drostie | it's a shame that konqueror is borderline-unusable for me. I want Qt Firefox. | 02:05 |
| Wargasmic | some browsers just render better than others, firefox tends to be good | 02:06 |
| Wargasmic | i'll also be sticking with ktorrent, it looks sufficient | 02:07 |
| drostie | firefox form controls are ugly out of the box, as is the chrome. There's a nice kde skin for firefox, though, and a plugin package for the form controls that I haven't sought out yet. | 02:07 |
| cjae | I reccommend ktorrent except if you need to import many torrents | 02:07 |
| Wargasmic | i installed the kde theme for firefox. blends in very well. | 02:08 |
| mefisto__ | drostie: my firefox looked great out of the box | 02:08 |
| Wargasmic | also, my firefox looked fine out of the box. | 02:08 |
| cjae | di you install with the no reccommends | 02:09 |
| cjae | did | 02:09 |
| Wargasmic | i installed with all recommends | 02:09 |
| mefisto__ | drostie: this one? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7574 | 02:10 |
| Wargasmic | yes, that's what i used, mefisto__ | 02:10 |
| cjae | cause mine look like shit and did the qtcurve thing and all | 02:10 |
| drostie | mefisto: yep, that's the goede skin. | 02:10 |
| Wargasmic | it's a good skin | 02:11 |
| mefisto__ | Wargasmic: I use that one in hardy kde 3 | 02:11 |
| cjae | I think it was a page that started like make firefox look like kde, the icons the only things that looked good | 02:12 |
| drostie | I like the comment on that page too. I think it should say, "It's recommended to install from the author's website (to save you a trip to bugmenot.com)" | 02:12 |
| cjae | or controls I mean | 02:12 |
| Wargasmic | i installed it from mozilla.com | 02:12 |
| Wargasmic | or, .org | 02:12 |
| mefisto__ | both are the same. I think development has been abandoned on that theme | 02:13 |
| Wargasmic | could be, but there's another one out there that is similar which might be under development | 02:14 |
| drostie | But when I open up a page in Konqueror and Firefox, (e.g. google.com/search?q=stuff) I see a thin grey box around the form widgets (the input type=text and input type=button widgets), which shouldn't be there. | 02:15 |
| drostie | (in Firefox. It's not there in Konqueror.) | 02:15 |
| Wargasmic | i see it too but it hasn't bothered me | 02:15 |
| drostie | Well, that's what I mean about ugly form controls. ^_^ | 02:16 |
| Wargasmic | dunno if i'd call it ugly but it could be better | 02:16 |
| icarus | can I apply skins to OpenOffice ? | 02:18 |
| drostie | the form controls, qua form controls, relative to norms of other browsers, are ugly. better? | 02:18 |
| mefisto__ | drostie: I think that's qt4 in systemsettings > appearance > gtk styles & fonts | 02:18 |
| Wargasmic | well, ugly is subjective. i see what you're talking about though, don't worry. | 02:18 |
| mefisto__ | drostie: if you use raleigh instead it isn't grey, but then the buttons aren't kde4 style | 02:19 |
| Wargasmic | yep that works | 02:21 |
| Wargasmic | just as you say | 02:21 |
| icarus | all right! ktorrent totally satisfies my candy love! | 02:21 |
| mefisto__ | what was that other qt4 browser for kde4? someone mentioned it here a while ago. it's very basic atm, but looks promising | 02:22 |
| JontheEchidna | arora | 02:23 |
| mefisto__ | yeah | 02:23 |
| cjae | icarus: you can use ip blocker as well actually IP filter you have to enable the plugin through preferences and manually install the iplist | 02:24 |
| drostie | I'm not sure I like Win95-style form controls more than Qt4 form controls with grey boxes around them ^_^ | 02:24 |
| icarus | cjae: so actual content! | 02:25 |
| icarus | cjae: what's the Session options under Kubuntu ? like deciding what apps/daemons boot up ? | 02:25 |
| cjae | icarus: but the button press doesn't work because of bandwidth hogs at bluetrack, but you can manually download the file and convert it with ktorrent | 02:25 |
| icarus | "button press" ? | 02:27 |
| cjae | install it and look | 02:27 |
| cjae | there is a button to update the iplist autmatically but does not work | 02:28 |
| cjae | have a look at peergurdian if you don't know what I mean | 02:28 |
| drostie | icarus: in K > System Settings > Advanced options > Session Manager you can save the current windows/apps, and they will then magically run on login. | 02:29 |
| drostie | Also, at some point I added "knetworkmanager" to some debian script that runs at login time, don't remember which one it was exactly. | 02:29 |
| cjae | why would you want to do that if you you don't have a decent traffic shapper | 02:30 |
| icarus | drostie: thanks | 02:30 |
| Wargasmic | just installed arora, let's see how this works | 02:30 |
| icarus | cjae: oh ak, IP Filter button right ? | 02:31 |
| cjae | does ktorrent actually limit the badwidth reliably | 02:31 |
| yao_ziyuan | in linux, can a dynamic link library "inject" itself into a process like in windows? | 02:31 |
| yao_ziyuan | in linux, can a dynamic link library "inject" itself into a process like in windows? | 02:31 |
| yao_ziyuan | sorry, duplicate | 02:31 |
| yao_ziyuan | if there is a virus/trojan running, will it only take form of a process? | 02:31 |
| cjae | icarus: yes | 02:32 |
| drostie | yao_ziyuan: if an application is vulnerable to an exploit, or if you install a malicious driver, then yes. The benefit of Linux is that installation is centralized and done with digital signatures. | 02:32 |
| icarus | man, Session Manager isn't doing anything for me :( | 02:32 |
| icarus | there is no list of stuff to boot :S | 02:33 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: session isn't restored? | 02:33 |
| drostie | yao_ziyuan: so, if you install from the repositories, there are definitely no viruses. | 02:33 |
| Wargasmic | that's the beauty of repos | 02:33 |
| Wargasmic | ^ | 02:33 |
| drostie | icarus: it's not a list. It's literally a "save this current screen" type of deal. | 02:33 |
| icarus | mefisto__: no I mean, I can't tell it to start Ktorrent and nm-applet | 02:33 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: it restores whatever was open when you log out | 02:34 |
| cjae | icarus: this way with ktorrent you are only blocking ktorrent traffic, not like moblock and block all those ips on every app on you computer | 02:34 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: you can add things to ~/.kde/Autostart (scripts, or .desktop files) | 02:34 |
| icarus | cjae: cool actually | 02:35 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: and there's a gui called autostart in systemsettings too. maybe not installed by default. | 02:35 |
| cjae | there is quite a bit of discussion about whether all of those ip's are a risk | 02:35 |
| icarus | mefisto__: right, it is, cool found it thanks | 02:36 |
| yao_ziyuan | drostie: the problem is with firefox. addons.mozilla.org provides https:// download links for firefox extensions, but they actually redirect to http:// links to download the actual files | 02:36 |
| icarus | cjae: sadly, don't know enough about the protocol to understand wise discussions like that | 02:36 |
| drostie | cjae: not all of them are. PeerGuardian disables HTTP access to the Astronomy Picture of the Day because it's a NASA site. | 02:36 |
| yao_ziyuan | drostie: so my government (china) can serve me a malicious extension | 02:37 |
| icarus | so when I shutdown and then login again, I get sames apps open again ? (like firefox session restore) ? | 02:37 |
| cjae | icarus: you block all potential antip2p sites like sony and such but you can block sites that are useful like what drostie said | 02:38 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: yes. but you can exclude things from being saved in sessions if you don't want them starting up on login in the session manager | 02:38 |
| icarus | cjae: general blacklist problem | 02:38 |
| cjae | it also has blocks for sites that are carry nothing but spam or things that cold infect a windows computer | 02:39 |
| cjae | which makes it useful on all your computer apps hence moblock | 02:40 |
| icarus | mefisto__: yeah I saw the excluding list now | 02:40 |
| icarus | cool, I like the restore session idea | 02:41 |
| cjae | sucks | 02:41 |
| drostie | yao_ziyuan: you're right, and I'm surprised. It seems that releases.mozilla.org doesn't support SSL. | 02:41 |
| icarus | wow\ | 02:41 |
| icarus | cjae: why does it suck ? | 02:42 |
| mefisto__ | icarus: shift-F1 gives you context help in most systemsettings dialogs too. at least for most things. some help stuff isn't written yet | 02:42 |
| drostie | yao_ziyuan: does the Tor network work from China? | 02:42 |
| cjae | icarus: it said to block 1/3 of ip address in the world | 02:42 |
| yao_ziyuan | drostie: yes | 02:43 |
| cjae | icarus: you are talking about the kde session restore right | 02:43 |
| yao_ziyuan | drostie: obviously in the future i must use tor for updating extensions | 02:43 |
| icarus | cjae: yeah! | 02:43 |
| icarus | cjae: but I get the part where you say ipblocking can suck | 02:44 |
| drostie | yao_ziyuan: Well, that also depends. Do you trust arbitrary Tor end nodes more than you trust the Chinese government? | 02:44 |
| cjae | keep using it after awhile you wil see how restore session sucks | 02:44 |
| icarus | cjae: ah well why, it's basically 'start these apps' based on what apps were open! | 02:45 |
| icarus | anyone know if OpenOffice has themes ? | 02:45 |
| cjae | yes | 02:45 |
| mefisto__ | cjae: I just kill X with ctrl-alt-backspace when I don't want a session saved/restored | 02:45 |
| drostie | yao_ziyuan: the best thing to do is to contact mozilla.org, tell them to get SSL running on their actual download site. Then the problem is solved both ways. | 02:46 |
| cjae | I haven't used the themes but have heard positive things about them | 02:46 |
| yao_ziyuan | drostie: of course i trust exit nodes abroad china | 02:46 |
| yao_ziyuan | drostie: i already reported this in irc.mozilla.org/#firefox | 02:46 |
| cjae | mefisto__: good idea but is bad when you have apps open that have been updated recently and the update breaks the app you forgot to close | 02:47 |
| drostie | yao_ziyuan: you probably shouldn't trust those nodes, I think. But it's better, at least, than the Chinese government. | 02:48 |
| mefisto__ | cjae: never thought of that | 02:49 |
| drostie | anyway. good night from the netherlands everybody. I have classes tomorrow. --_--;; | 02:49 |
| cjae | bad too if you look at stupid stuff on the net and have a psycho g/f (that I don't have anymore, the new one is very well balanced) and you forget to close it properly | 02:50 |
| cjae | :/ | 02:50 |
| icarus | where do you guys find openoffice themes?! I can't find any! | 02:51 |
| * cjae adjusts way of thinking and realizes that if you are looking at "stupid stuff" on the net, how can you be a judge of balance | 02:52 | |

| jkpro | I'm setting up my system for some network scans. Anyone setup the NMAPFE for 4.62? I'm about to try it out and wanted to check first. | 03:10 |
| jkpro | I haven't tried the korganizer filters - what are you trying to do? | 03:12 |
| cjae | icarus: I don't see any ooo themes in aptcache though | 03:12 |
| icarus | it's really annoying, OO is truly ugly | 03:12 |
| maco | jkpro: i want to tell it "all these tasks i imported from evolution that start with the letters cs...put them in the 'school' category" | 03:12 |
| maco | cjae: Riddell says "developers wanted" | 03:13 |
| maco | (OOo v. kde4 was discussed today) | 03:13 |
| jkpro | Ok. Let me try it and if I can make it work - I'll pass it on. | 03:13 |
| maco | my classes all start with cs, so itd be nice if i can have it just shove all my homework into the school category | 03:13 |
| killermach | which channel should I take my CSS (cascading style sheet) question to? | 03:15 |
| maco | #css | 03:16 |
| jkpro | Marco - working on it.... | 03:18 |
| maco | jkpro: i dont see anything that resembles a filter in there. i just see "choose a category" and the trouble is i dont to filter *by* category, i want to filter *into* categories | 03:19 |

| mendedtimbo_ | is 8.04 no longer lts? | 05:04 |
| bazhang | !lts | 05:04 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. | 05:04 |
| bazhang | !hardy | 05:04 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 8.04-LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04 - See !lts for more details. | 05:04 |
| mendedtimbo_ | maintenance updates and security fixes | 05:05 |
| mendedtimbo_ | until October 2009. | 05:05 |
| mendedtimbo_ | is what the kubuntu site said for 8.04.2 | 05:05 |
| v3trae | Trying to install kubuntu 8.10 on a friends Dell XPS m170 laptop, grub cannot seem to autoconfigure and when i do find /boot/grub/stage1 from the grub prompt i get an error. Any ideas? | 05:06 |
| mefisto__ | v3trae: what's the error? | 05:06 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: let me boot it back up just a sec | 05:07 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: slowest bios i've ever seen in my life D= | 05:08 |
| mendedtimbo_ | but i thought 8.04 was lts | 05:08 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: Error 15: File not found | 05:09 |
| mefisto__ | mendedtimbo_: I think it's because it has kde 3.5 and kde support is moving to kde4, so it's a bit complicated for 8.04 | 05:10 |
| mendedtimbo_ | oh so its not really lts then. | 05:10 |
| mefisto__ | I don't think so, not any more | 05:11 |
| mendedtimbo_ | i dont want to go back to gnome:( | 05:11 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: keep in mind this is directly after the install completes, so it should be there. | 05:11 |
| mefisto__ | but I'm not sure. I know support for kde3 apps is moving to kde4 versions so maybe it depends on what you install. so not really lts, right? how can it be? | 05:12 |
| mefisto__ | v3trae: just 1 disk? | 05:13 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: yeah. | 05:13 |
| mefisto__ | hmm | 05:13 |
| v3trae | find /b<tab> comes back with Error 2: Bad file or directory type | 05:14 |
| v3trae | sure feels like it didn't install doesn't it? | 05:15 |
| mefisto__ | so grub starts, but doesn't find the files | 05:15 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: the grub config starts, like if you were to just do sudo grub on your box right now, the actual loader doesn't start. | 05:15 |
| mefisto__ | or it doesn't start at all? | 05:16 |
| snarkster | evening | 05:17 |
| v3trae | snarkster: heya | 05:17 |
| mefisto__ | v3trae: so you're running grub install from livecd? | 05:18 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: no, the install completes, the machine reboots and i get the grub> prompt | 05:18 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: i think the install is just hosed, don't worry about it | 05:18 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: class is over anyway | 05:19 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: or rather, almost over. | 05:19 |
| mefisto__ | v3trae: so grub is in MBR but something wrong with partitions | 05:19 |
| snarkster | Ive got a dell that has an issue. the install completes but it drops to cli when i boot | 05:19 |
| snarkster | it has got to be video card, but it has an intel 910 | 05:20 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: thats what it sounds like, when i did an install on my laptop back in the day it did something similar | 05:20 |
| snarkster | shouldnt be an issue right? | 05:20 |
| v3trae | snarkster: i haven't used an internal vcard in probably 6 years, so i really have no idea. | 05:20 |
| snarkster | ah ok | 05:21 |
| maco | alsamixer is a terminal command | 05:21 |
| v3trae | mefisto__: don't worry about it man, i don't want to fix it for him anyway, i think he needs to do it himself. | 05:21 |
| snarkster | oh wait.. sorry thats a different machine. haha this one locks up on desktop startup.. never leaves the splash screen | 05:21 |
| maco | doh i was scrolled way up i think | 05:21 |
| v3trae | maco: yeah you were =P | 05:21 |

| mefisto__ | alesan: try turning off compositing ? | 05:26 |
| alesan | voglster, I have disabled everything I could, no effects, KDE2 style, crystal svg theme | 05:26 |
| alesan | mefisto__, everything is disabled, I do not what those things on my computer | 05:26 |
| voglster | alesan, then why run kde 4.2? | 05:27 |
| voglster | alesan, what else is different? | 05:27 |
| alesan | voglster, well, I would VERY much like to run KDE3.5 but... kubuntu forced the update to the new version. I then switched to gnome, but my heart is with KDE (that I use since 0.9) | 05:28 |
| alesan | so today I tried KDE 4.2 again | 05:28 |
| voglster | you can downgrade the package... nothing is forcing you to upgrade | 05:29 |
| mefisto__ | alesan: what about power management settings/profiles | 05:29 |
| alesan | voglster, afaik it is not possible to downgrade, it was possible on 8.04 but not 8.10 (and I need 8.10's kernel because it fixes stuff for my thinkpad) | 05:29 |
| alesan | mefisto__, I can have a look, but I am skeptical... | 05:30 |

| Luija | can someone explain me why every download u do in firefox is deleted when u turn off the pc, and no saved? | 05:31 |
| bazhang | Luija, what version of kubuntu | 05:33 |
| Luija | 8.10 | 05:34 |
| bazhang | Luija, where do you have ff set to download them | 05:34 |
| Luija | i dont know lol | 05:34 |
| Luija | i just click save | 05:35 |
| Luija | i wanted to make another DVD of Kubuntu, and it says it cant open the file because its deleted | 05:35 |
| bazhang | Luija, then check; also look in dolphin (click desktop) and see if they are there | 05:35 |
| Luija | ok | 05:35 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: firefox edit menu, preferences, main tab | 05:35 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: make sure it's not set to /tmp | 05:36 |
| alesan | voglster, if that works, I will be happy again!!! | 05:39 |
| Luija | mefisto | 05:40 |
| Luija | is not set to tmp | 05:40 |
| Luija | is set to desktop | 05:40 |
| Luija | but then where should i set it? | 05:40 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: look in dolphin in your home directory, inside Desktop folder. are the downloads there? | 05:42 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: desktop or Desktop? | 05:43 |
| Luija | Desktop | 05:43 |
| Luija | and now | 05:43 |
| Luija | no* | 05:43 |
| Luija | the downloads r no there | 05:43 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: in firefox, go to about:config and in the search box, put in: retention | 05:46 |
| Luija | so i set the download to Desktop or to other folder? | 05:46 |
| Luija | oh | 05:46 |
| Luija | ok | 05:46 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: browser.download.manager.retention should be set to 2 | 05:47 |
| Luija | yes is 2 | 05:47 |
| Luija | oh, now than we r in about config | 05:48 |
| Luija | what i needed to change | 05:48 |
| Luija | so the tabs r always show when i open the browser? | 05:48 |
| Luija | so i dont have to click new tab | 05:48 |
| Luija | tag* | 05:48 |
| alesan | voglster, if that works, I will let you know | 05:51 |
| alesan | and send a donation to that holy guy that made KDE3.5 available for intrepid | 05:51 |
| alesan | :) | 05:52 |
| alesan | thank you, bye | 05:52 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: browser.tabs.autoHide set to "false" | 05:52 |
| Luija | thx | 05:52 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: I don't know what's happening to the downloads. maybe try making a new directory in your home dir called downloads, then set download location to that folder | 05:54 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: in firefox prefs, privacy tab, do you have "remember what I've downloaded" ? | 05:57 |
| Luija | yes, and i already created the download folder, thx :) | 05:58 |
| mefisto__ | Luija: also in privacy tab, check the private data "always clear my private data when I close firefox" is not on | 05:59 |
| Luija | not on | 06:01 |
| Luija | it must be on? | 06:01 |

| tweakedeh | How would I fix this? | 06:16 |

| Luija | there is one accelerator of downloads called downloadthemall | 07:46 |
| Luija | there will be a problem if i download the ISO of Kubuntu with it? | 07:46 |
| maco | Luija: no, though i dont think it actually speeds up the downloads...just lets you resume | 07:47 |
| maco | wget -c also lets you resume | 07:47 |
| Luija | but why u say it dont speeds up? | 07:47 |
| Luija | it sayed he speeded a 400% more lol | 07:48 |
| maco | i dont see how it's possible...i mean, if the server's only serving it up at a certain pace... | 07:48 |

| zimba | my Kubuntu 8.10 has just updated itself and kde is totally fucked up | 09:34 |
| zimba | two days ago I activated backports :( | 09:35 |
| zimba | is there an easy way to come back to a stable version | 09:35 |
| zimba | ? | 09:35 |
| maco | by reinstalling | 09:38 |
| zimba | maco: is the only way? | 09:40 |
| maco | yes | 09:40 |
| zimba | you mean from cd? | 09:40 |
| maco | yes | 09:40 |
| maco | thats the only supported/easy way | 09:40 |
| zimba | can I install from the running version? | 09:41 |
| maco | i mean...you *could* hunt down old versions of all the packages and forcibly install them.... | 09:41 |
| maco | manually | 09:41 |
| zimba | no no | 09:41 |
| zimba | I will reinstall everything | 09:41 |
| maco | right, you asked for easy | 09:41 |
| zimba | yeah | 09:41 |

| zimba | what? | 09:42 |
| zimba | kde 4.2 ppa? | 09:42 |
| zimba | I think so | 09:42 |
| zimba | maco: ok, I will reinstall from scratch, but is there a way to do it without cd? | 09:44 |
| maco | zimba: um, from usb drive. and id guess you should stay away from that ppa then | 09:47 |

| rgl | slcr, download from where? | 10:01 |

| kaddi | i'm having issues with my kubuntu: (kde 4.2) plasma just decided to switch all my settings back to default and destroyed the entire configuration i had done | 10:25 |
| kaddi | this wouldn't be so bad, if i hadn't stored an important phonennumber, on the post-it-widget, which is now empty | 10:25 |
| kaddi | any chance of recovering that? | 10:26 |
| === patrick is now known as fivetwentysix | ||

| kaddi | i didn't do anything... till now... i left my pc, came back the screensaver was on | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | kaddi: you said you switched all your settings back. how did you do this? | 10:33 |
| kaddi | i tried to log in, everything crashed and it but me back to the "normal" loginpage. When i then logged in, i had the default background, default widgets, | 10:33 |
| kaddi | i didn't switch them back, they did that on themselves | 10:34 |

| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: if you use pastebin you can paste the whole thing there, then give us the address of the paste | 11:47 |

| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: read that and it will tell you | 11:54 |
| bazhang | also try running lspci in konsole elizabeth and check the wireless chipset there | 11:54 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip: WTH is that?? lol | 11:55 |
| elizabeth | as i understood that is for a fres installation isn it??? | 11:55 |
| shadeslayer | anyways ill try the shutdown option | 11:56 |
| elizabeth | i already say that it wont detect the wireless card | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: no, you can set boot options at any time in the systems life | 11:56 |
| elizabeth | so lspci is useless | 11:56 |
| bazhang | elizabeth, tell us the chipset | 11:56 |
| elizabeth | ok with the live cd Action? | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: well if shutdown is the only option then there would be no reason to ask what you wanna do, theres only one choice | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: just my hunch | 11:56 |
| shadeslayer | you didnt get me | 11:56 |
| shadeslayer | when i press logout,the notebook shuts down | 11:57 |
| bazhang | lspci is rarely useless :) | 11:57 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: i know, but in the logout option there is usually restart, logoff, etc yes? | 11:57 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: and shutdown | 11:57 |
| shadeslayer | yes | 11:57 |
| shadeslayer | Leave>logout causes the notebook to shutdown | 11:58 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: so what if there was only shutdown..why would the computer need to ask you, | 11:58 |
| shadeslayer | oh i get you | 11:58 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: its like asking a question with one option, its automatically assumed | 11:58 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: so if you read the gude you can make sure that all that stuff is in order | 11:58 |
| shadeslayer | yeah | 11:59 |
| ActionParsnip | this is my guess. i could be wrong buts its worth a look | 11:59 |
| shadeslayer | lets see | 11:59 |

| wizard__ | IS THERE ANY ITALIAN GUY HERE? | 13:11 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | fireball do you mean reset your user settings? you could delete teh .kde or .kde4 directory in your home ? | 13:11 |

| fireball2 | teh? | 13:12 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | do you use gnome or kde? | 13:12 |
| elizabeth | ok then i open a terminal | 13:12 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | teh =the | 13:12 |
| fireball2 | :) | 13:12 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | press alt + f2 and type xterm if gnome and konsole if kde | 13:12 |
| elizabeth | i think kde is kubuntu intrepid | 13:12 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | that should bring up a terminal | 13:13 |
| elizabeth | ok i got the reminal | 13:13 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok do you know how to change to the directory where the tar.gz is? | 13:13 |
| fireball2 | me too | 13:13 |
| elizabeth | no | 13:13 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | is it on your desktop or somehwere else? | 13:14 |
| elizabeth | something like cd? | 13:14 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | yes | 13:14 |
| elizabeth | desktop | 13:14 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | so cd Desktop | 13:14 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | then do ls *.tar.gz | 13:14 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | you should see your archive | 13:14 |
| elizabeth | ok i type cd and then space and then copy the tar file hit enter and appeared me: NOT A DIRECTORY | 13:15 |
| fireball2 | ok, ask a dum q, but what's the delete command | 13:15 |

| fireball2 | rd even? | 13:17 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | elizabeth, type ls *.tar.gz | 13:17 |
| elizabeth | now i suppose to type cd again and then copy the tar file into terminal?? | 13:17 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | no | 13:17 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | so if you type ls *.tar.gz do you see the archive you downloaded | 13:17 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | rm = remove file | 13:18 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 13:18 |

| elizabeth | hybrid-portsrc-x86_32-v5_10_27_14.tar.gz | 13:18 |
| elizabeth | elizabeth@Elizabeth:~/Desktop$ | 13:18 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | fire - that will delete all your settings for kde, maybe you need to do .kde4 as well? | 13:19 |
| ActionParsnip | fireball2: that wil delete the .kde folder, i'd suggest you rename to test then delete (f you havent already) | 13:19 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | but that will get rid of all your settings | 13:19 |
| elizabeth | and that result is in kinnda red color | 13:19 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok elizabeth to extract the archive | 13:19 |
| ActionParsnip | fireball2: rename both then test, if its no good you can roll back | 13:19 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | tar -xvzf hybrid-portsrc-x86_32-v5_10_27_14.tar.gz | 13:20 |
| elizabeth | finish | 13:20 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok you *should* have a new directory now | 13:21 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | call somehting similar to hybrid-portsrc | 13:21 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | something. | 13:21 |

| MaGicKangaRoo | hi elizabeth sorry im back | 13:34 |
| elizabeth | no problem | 13:34 |
| elizabeth | so i did what u said | 13:34 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok | 13:34 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | so yuo have the files out of the archive now. | 13:35 |
| elizabeth | and i got this : http://pastebin.com/m2981b3b8 | 13:35 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | it looks from your upload that they didnt get put into a folder but have just gone into your desktop which is a bit messy but will work | 13:35 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | do you know anything about compiling from source or anything? | 13:35 |
| elizabeth | no | 13:36 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | !compile | 13:36 |
| ubottu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 13:36 |
| elizabeth | i got on my desktop three folders | 13:36 |
| elizabeth | hibryd_wl lib and src | 13:36 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok well im just going from that tutorial now | 13:36 |
| elizabeth | and also a kinnda sheet that says Makefile | 13:37 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | but you may want to read those community notes first | 13:37 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | just so you know whats going on? | 13:37 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip: isnt there anything between 100 and 66 | 13:37 |
| elizabeth | ok | 13:37 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip: 66 is too small and 100 too big | 13:37 |
| ActionParsnip | shadeslayer: not sure, i dont use gnome, maybe theres a hack, maybe its limited by the icon sets, im not sure | 13:37 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | alex what happened with the ip? | 13:38 |
| shadeslayer | well i installed it on top of kubuntu | 13:38 |
| alex__ | i don't know mate .... | 13:38 |
| shadeslayer | thanks anyways | 13:38 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | have you tried setting it via terminal? | 13:38 |
| elizabeth | so i willneed to install that buidl something first right? | 13:38 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | yes elizabeth | 13:38 |
| alex__ | just doing by the normal way ,it doesn't appeare on the config ... | 13:38 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | so that you can then build the stuff you downloaded | 13:38 |
| elizabeth | ok letme do it first | 13:39 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | alex, try doing it via the cli | 13:39 |
| alex__ | I don't , because I don't know how should I do ..:9 | 13:39 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | oh | 13:39 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | is it eth0? | 13:39 |
| alex__ | yes .. | 13:39 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok so something like | 13:39 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | sudo ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1/24 | 13:39 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | where 10.0.0.1 is the ip and /24 is hte netmask | 13:39 |
| alex__ | ok , so easy ... :) | 13:41 |
| alex__ | noe I check if it's working .. | 13:41 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | thats only a temproary change thou | 13:41 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | yes | 13:41 |
| alex__ | yeah , it works .... | 13:41 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | cool | 13:41 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok to make it permanent | 13:41 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces | 13:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !cookie | MaGicKangaRoo | 13:42 |
| ubottu | MaGicKangaRoo: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 13:42 |
| alex__ | yep , and then .... ? | 13:42 |
| ActionParsnip | MaGicKangaRoo: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 13:42 |
| salim | hello | 13:43 |

| MaGicKangaRoo | alex that is an example one so if you set that to what you have | 13:44 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | thanks for the link action | 13:44 |
| ActionParsnip | btw all apt-building vlc takes forever and a day | 13:45 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | once its in the interfaces file, you can sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart to test it | 13:45 |
| alex__ | ok where I can find an example ....., just to know how to write it ? | 13:45 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | when i first started with unix | 13:45 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | i thought it would be a good idea to build kde from source | 13:46 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | i share you pain | 13:46 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | *your | 13:46 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | alex so you sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces in a terminal | 13:46 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | or sudo kate /etc/network/interfaces if you want a gui | 13:46 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | sorry not sure what a gnome editor is | 13:46 |
| alex__ | yes I did | 13:46 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok so save it and restart networking to test it? | 13:47 |
| alex__ | wait a second mate .... | 13:47 |
| alex__ | should I write something there , right ? | 13:47 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok so you have opened the interfaces file? | 13:48 |
| alex__ | yep .. | 13:48 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok so an example one is here | 13:48 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | http://pastebin.com/m2c44ecf1 | 13:48 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | if you change that to your settings | 13:48 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | action posted this as a more complete guide | 13:48 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 13:48 |
| alex__ | ok ,so I know the address I want , but I don't know how to set "network" and "broadcast" because I'm doing an internal LAN | 13:51 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok whats your ip and netmask | 13:51 |
| alex__ | 10.2.2.6 and 255.255.255.0 | 13:51 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | Network address - 10.2.2.0 | 13:52 |
| alex__ | I have to put 10.2.2.1 ? | 13:52 |
| alex__ | ahh ok .... | 13:52 |
| alex__ | in both ,right ? | 13:52 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | Broadcast address - 10.2.2.255 | 13:52 |
| alex__ | ok .. | 13:52 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | if you install sipcalc | 13:52 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | it does it for you if your unsure | 13:52 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | sipcalc 10.2.2.6/24 | 13:52 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | well does = works it out | 13:52 |
| alex__ | ok , should be ok .... | 13:54 |
| alex__ | but tell me , any time I need to change my IP I have to change this file ? | 13:54 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | if the ip is in the same subnet/network as the existing one | 13:55 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | then you just need to update the i | 13:55 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | *ip | 13:55 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | if its more than that you can work out the new ones with sipcalc | 13:55 |
| alex__ | ok , I'll try it ... :) | 13:55 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | so yes you update that file to update the networking | 13:55 |
| alex__ | that's great .... | 13:56 |
| alex__ | thanks a lot for your help MaGicKangaRoo...... | 13:56 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | no prob | 13:57 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | this cgi:irc needs to hide parts and joing. :) | 14:03 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | anyone seen a web based irc thats better then mibbit or cgi:irc - Hospital firewall wont let me irc directly | 14:05 |
| alex__ | ok I ping my Desk, but I can't get files from there ... :O | 14:08 |
| alex__ | should I setup something else to do it ? | 14:08 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | yes alex | 14:08 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | networked does not mean 'shareing files' :) | 14:09 |
| alex__ | wait a second , maybe I found the problem .. | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | what os are the 2 machines? | 14:09 |
| alex__ | Kubuntu and Mandriva | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | 2 linux systems can use samba, nfs, or sshfs | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | depending on your needs | 14:10 |
| alex__ | I'm using samba.... | 14:10 |
| alex__ | because was already setting ..... | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | sshfs is handy for some quick transfers | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | make sure they are in the same workgroup and you got the samba server installed on both - i guess :) | 14:11 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | nfs would be 'faster' if transfering a lot of files.. or wanting to be a more perment connection | 14:11 |
| elizabeth | ok Magic | 14:12 |
| elizabeth | i am at the three stages | 14:12 |
| alex__ | ok , so , I need to intall samba on my Kubuntu .. | 14:12 |
| elizabeth | done the path before it | 14:12 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | samba swerver is NOT installed by default | 14:13 |
| alex__ | I need a client to read the other server , right ? | 14:13 |
| alex__ | and if I want share on this , the server as well ......, is right ? | 14:13 |
| Dr_Willis_CGI | the file managers work as a client - or they can | 14:13 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | hi elizabeth | 14:13 |
| elizabeth | hi | 14:13 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok so | 14:13 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | according to that guide | 14:14 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | how did the 3 steps go? | 14:14 |
| elizabeth | i done understand anything on it | 14:14 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok | 14:14 |
| elizabeth | thats why i havent done anything | 14:14 |
| alex__ | I see on the repository "kdenetwork-filesharing", is the package I need ? and if yes, is the only one ? | 14:15 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | do you still have the terminal open? | 14:15 |
| elizabeth | yes | 14:15 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok still on your desktop? | 14:15 |
| elizabeth | yes i thik u mean this: elizabeth@Elizabeth:~/Desktop$? | 14:16 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | yep | 14:16 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | ok so going through that guide it says to make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` | 14:16 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | which will create the instructions for building the application/drives | 14:16 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | *drivers | 14:16 |
| elizabeth | ok | 14:17 |
| MaGicKangaRoo | its basically saying change to the first directory and print some info to your screen | 14:17 |
| manumar | hello | 14:19 |
| elizabeth | so i type that "make-C......" into terminal right? | 14:19 |
| manumar | in kubuntu all ports come open really? | 14:19 |
| === adz__ is now known as magickang | ||
| Dr_Willis_Love | depends on how ya define open | 14:20 |
| manumar | how can I open a port | 14:20 |
| magickang | type that yes | 14:20 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | None are blocked.. b ut theres no services running on most of them | 14:20 |
| magickang | make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` | 14:20 |
| manumar | I need open a port | 14:20 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | there are no firewall rules blocking any ports by default | 14:20 |
| manumar | ok | 14:20 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | so they are all 'open' ie: non blocked | 14:20 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | :!firewall | 14:21 |
| manumar | ok | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | !firewall | 14:21 |
| manumar | mmm | 14:21 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 14:21 |
| manumar | I installed nmap | 14:21 |
| manumar | and it say to me that 1700 ports are close | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | theres nothing running on them.. so theres no response | 14:21 |
| manumar | mm | 14:22 |
| manumar | sorry I dont understand good english | 14:22 |
| manumar | xD | 14:22 |
| manumar | mmm | 14:22 |
| baoji | Hello. Anyone else running Jaunty who's had kde font problems since upgrading? | 14:22 |

| manumar | http://www.gamers.org/tmf/quickstart.html | 14:24 |
| manumar | I start the server | 14:24 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | sudo iptables --list to see what firewall rules exist.. most likely none | 14:24 |
| manumar | ok | 14:24 |
| manumar | manu@MaNu-PC-Linux:~$ sudo iptables --list | 14:26 |

| Dr_Willis_Love | no rules exist | 14:27 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | there for nothing is being altered in any way by t linux.. | 14:27 |
| manumar | then in nmap why it say to me that only 5 ports are open? | 14:27 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | your ROUTER may be. | 14:27 |

| Dr_Willis_Love | You do need to run a server as 'root' most likely - depending on theport its using | 14:29 |
| manumar | the server use this port | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | manumar: try not to flood | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | manumar: are you using a router? | 14:30 |
| manumar | On your firewall/router, open the server port 2350 and the P2P port 3450 for both UDP and TCP traffic, but not the XMLRPC port 5000. | 14:30 |
| manumar | yes | 14:30 |
| manumar | a linksys WRT54-GL | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | manumar: have you port forwarded from the router to the server pc? | 14:30 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | Your router has a firewalll | 14:30 |
| manumar | yes I think | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis_Love: NAT by deault is a firewall | 14:30 |
| manumar | I want to delete the firewall | 14:30 |
| manumar | because it dont.. | 14:31 |
| manumar | it isnt good xD | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip | manumar: i'd check, otherwise the connections will hit the router and be disgarded | 14:31 |
| Dr_Willis_Love | :) linux ha none.. on it by default - so forward the ports or set the pc to be in the DMZ on the router | 14:31 |
| manumar | yes, I put the DMZ to this pc | 14:31 |
| manumar | and it run | 14:31 |
| manumar | see | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip | manumar: put the server on a static ip and forward the port's you will need to read your manual then | 14:31 |

| drostie | Laeborg: what happened between working wlan0 and dead wlan0? | 15:57 |
| Laeborg | not sure. ive tried to update to kde 4.2, but the wireless crashed, so it didn't finished. im trying to upgrade again now, and hope the wireless works when upgrade complete | 15:59 |
| drostie | KDE 4.2 has a different wireless structure. You can still run NetworkManager+knetworkmanager, but you might have to make it a special part of boot-time startup. | 16:00 |
| drostie | I don't know why a wireless crash would affect the upgrade, since most package installers download everything before they start installing... | 16:01 |
| Laeborg | it crashed under downloading | 16:02 |
| drostie | Ah. So if you reboot your computer, the installer didn't get around to changing anything, and your wireless should work again? | 16:03 |

| ka | But I need it to work consistently across platforms... | 16:38 |
| trappist | gotcha | 16:38 |

| shadeslayer | fosco__: i have grub2 | 16:38 |
| fosco__ | not sure how does grub2 works, but startumanager can manage it | 16:38 |

| draik_ | For anyone using the Calendar widget on their desktop/dashboard, Is there a way to change the start of the week from Monday to Sunday? | 17:02 |
| Tm_T | draik_: it doesn't follow systemsettings? | 17:02 |
| draik_ | Nope :( | 17:03 |
| Tm_T | draik_: let me see | 17:03 |
| draik_ | Thanks | 17:03 |
| Tm_T | draik_: hmm, it does follow here, interesting | 17:04 |
| draik_ | How do I change the one in System Settings so that I can change it back to start on Sunday? | 17:04 |
| draik_ | I'm in Date & Time, but can't seem to change the start of the week to something other than Sunday. | 17:05 |
| Tm_T | draik_: regional & language in systemsettings should control it | 17:05 |
| draik_ | Oh | 17:05 |
| Tm_T | draik_: and there, its this "Time & Dates" tab where you can set first day of the week | 17:06 |
| Tm_T | draik_: for me it gives option to use any day of the week | 17:06 |
| draik_ | I see it now. Even after the changes, the calendar doesn't change. I even removed the widget and added it again. | 17:07 |
| Jampiter | Hi | 17:08 |
| martijn81 | hi there Jampiter | 17:09 |
| Jampiter | I have recently added the Kubuntu KDE 4.2 packages to an Ubuntu Intrepid install. However, I set the login screen to GDM during installation. I wish to change this to KDM, how can I perform this? | 17:09 |
| Jampiter | Hi there martijn81 | 17:10 |
| martijn81 | Jampiter: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 17:11 |

| mefisto__ | draik_: ctrl-shift-insert | 17:55 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: Thanks. I guess I didn't copy the text using the M-6 | 17:56 |
| draik_ | I can't copy text from nano | 17:57 |
| draik_ | M-^ is the command, but it also has M-6 | 17:57 |
| draik_ | I tried both and neither work | 17:57 |

| draik_ | Is there a way to have the contents of a txt file placed after the 'sudo apt-get install' command? | 18:01 |
| shadeslayer | maybe you can pipe the output | 18:02 |
| shadeslayer | i dont know how | 18:02 |
| draik_ | cat file.txt works, but I want it after the command entry, not prior | 18:03 |
| draik_ | Even still, it's not put on it's own line | 18:03 |
| draik_ | I found a way | 18:03 |

| yoanis | hi there | 18:26 |
| salim | hi yoanis | 18:26 |
| yoanis | i'm running kubuntu intrepid and just upgraded to kde4.2 | 18:26 |
| yoanis | and there's seems to be an issue with kwin | 18:26 |
| yoanis | i get "the default decoration plugin is corrupt and could not be loaded" | 18:27 |
| yoanis | i've an nvidia geforge go 7200 | 18:27 |
| yoanis | video card | 18:27 |
| salim | did you tried to update and/or upgrade ? | 18:29 |
| yoanis | actually, this happened after upgrade | 18:29 |
| salim | sometimes the upgrade fixies such issues | 18:29 |
| salim | I see | 18:30 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: try sudo dpkg --configure -a | 18:30 |
| yoanis | nothing happened | 18:30 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: or try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:30 |
| yoanis | won't work either | 18:31 |
| mefisto__ | won't work? is there an error? | 18:32 |
| yoanis | no, no error | 18:32 |
| yoanis | just got the prompt back | 18:32 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: ok try: sudo apt-get remove kde-window-manager && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install kde-window-manager | 18:33 |
| yoanis | i'll try that | 18:36 |
| ilembitov | Hi, all. Does anybody know, will Kubuntu 9.04 include a KDE4 port of K3B? | 18:38 |
| yoanis | still getting the same error | 18:39 |
| fosco__ | ilembitov, kubuntu 9.04 includes k3b | 18:39 |
| ilembitov | fosco_: Which version? | 18:40 |
| fosco__ | Version: 1.0.5-3ubuntu2 | 18:42 |
| BluesKaj | K3B is still KDE 3.5 , why fix something that "ain't broke" | 18:42 |
| BluesKaj | runs fine on 4.2 | 18:42 |
| HappySmileMan | why fix something that "ain't broke" <== To remove the need to install the KDE3 libraries on 9.04 | 18:43 |
| ilembitov | HappySmileMan: that's exactly what I was about to write. Besides, Mandriva people (including Trueg) are working on a new version | 18:44 |
| HappySmileMan | If it's finished in time it'll probably be included, I've also seen mention of looking for Konversation replacements if it's not ported in time, they intend (or at least had planned to) remove all KDE3 programs from 9.04 | 18:45 |
| mefisto__ | HappySmileMan: where did you see that they want to remove kde3? kubuntu.org ? | 18:46 |
| HappySmileMan | Not sure, it was on a wiki | 18:47 |
| HappySmileMan | I'll try find it, probably in my history somewhere | 18:47 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: so kde-window-manager was removed, redownloaded and reinstalled ? | 18:47 |
| yoanis | mefisto__: yes | 18:47 |
| yoanis | mefisto__: and still same error | 18:48 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: kwin --replace | 18:48 |
| HappySmileMan | mefisto__: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/kubuntu-jaunty-kde-packaging | 18:48 |
| HappySmileMan | And http://www.brighthub.com/computing/linux/articles/24443.aspx | 18:49 |
| mefisto__ | thanks HappySmileMan | 18:49 |
| HappySmileMan | Both mentioned Konversation being removed, Quassel will replace I think | 18:49 |
| yoanis | i'm pasting output on pastebin | 18:49 |
| yoanis | will send the link soon | 18:49 |
| HappySmileMan | Doesn't mention KDE3 libraries being removed, but I thought I saw that as a reason for removing Konversation before | 18:49 |
| cuznt | Quassel is ok | 18:50 |
| cuznt | i am using it now | 18:50 |
| yoanis | mefisto__: http://pastebin.ca/1346052 | 18:52 |
| mefisto__ | cuznt: quassel is very similar to konversation, isn't it? but very few settings options | 18:52 |
| yoanis | that's what i get whenever i try to run kwin | 18:52 |
| cuznt | yes | 18:52 |
| cuznt | sets up different | 18:52 |
| cuznt | like xchat WAS i think | 18:52 |
| BluesKaj | HappySmileMan , that is bad news cuz quassell doesn't do much for me ..I prefer Konversation's simplicity and versatility | 18:53 |
| JontheEchidna | konversation is still available from the repos | 18:53 |
| HappySmileMan | BluesKaj: Well it'll still be available I assume, but not the default | 18:53 |
| BluesKaj | err quassel | 18:53 |
| BluesKaj | We can only hope , HappySmileMan | 18:53 |
| HappySmileMan | It's a popular application, there'll definitely be someone packaging it | 18:54 |
| Laeborg | lol now im home at my GF's apartment, and here does my wireless works, but didn't worked at home :S | 18:54 |
| HappySmileMan | I've never used Quassel, might d/l it now to see what it's like | 18:54 |
| HappySmileMan | I'm not sure what the whole "Quassel IRC is a modern, cross-platform, distributed IRC client, meaning that one (or multiple) client(s) can attach to and detach from a central core" means | 18:56 |
| HappySmileMan | That mean I could run it on headless box upstairs, and connect through that or something, would be handy for loggin | 18:56 |
| HappySmileMan | logging* | 18:56 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: do you get messages about anything being "kept back" when you do an upgrade? | 18:58 |
| yoanis | yes | 18:58 |

| solifugus | I added third party to my sources.. now how can I upgrade kde 4.1.4 to 4.2.x ? | 19:03 |
| ghostcube | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:04 |
| yoanis | well , it seems like kwin is working now | 19:05 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: if it's still not working: sudo apt-get remove --purge kde-window-manager && sudo apt-get install kde-window-manager | 19:05 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: ok great | 19:05 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: reinstall gwenview now | 19:06 |
| yoanis | removed this packages:kdm kuser okular kwin-kde4 kde-printer-applet kdepim-strigi-plugins kdegraphics-strigi-plugins ktimetracker libpoppler-qt4-3 systemsettings libspectre1 | 19:06 |
| yoanis | and the installed them again | 19:07 |
| yoanis | and now kwin is working | 19:07 |
| yoanis | don't know how that did the trick | 19:07 |
| yoanis | but it did | 19:07 |
| mefisto__ | yoanis: how did you know to remove those? did you get errors mentioning them? | 19:08 |

| Mycroft_ | mefisto> yep and it doesn't sort anything | 19:30 |
| Mycroft_ | it might be an issue with gmail I don't know | 19:31 |
| Mycroft_ | because the subjet line is in fact the author of the mail | 19:31 |
| mefisto__ | weird. what version kmail? | 19:33 |
| Mycroft_ | 1.11 kde 4.2 | 19:33 |
| Mycroft_ | I am not sure I make myself clear | 19:33 |
| Mycroft_ | the subject are ok but all mail are in a single "thread" | 19:34 |
| Mycroft_ | where the thread name is the author | 19:34 |
| mefisto__ | I'm using same, with gmail, but I see subject as subject, not author, and I can sort any column by clicking the headings | 19:34 |
| Mycroft_ | I would like to sort my mail by date and not by author | 19:34 |
| giarca | Mycroft_: is an option | 19:34 |

| ActionParsnip | lovre: i think so, you can do it from recovery windows console too if you are wise | 20:02 |
| lovre | ActionParsnip: i see that there should be a reg command for registry editing, but when i login to command prompt from windows recovery, there is no such command, only the basic ones... | 20:03 |

| giarca | I see that process usually after done some file browsing with dolphin | 20:13 |
| ActionParsnip | lovre: you'l need to mount it with -o force then | 20:14 |
| elizabeth | hello again good afternoon 2 u all | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip | giarca: i have only one, i'd kill them off one at a time then run the system a while to see what happens, you can always reboot | 20:15 |
| elizabeth | MagicKan good afternoon i am very sorry this mornig i had to leave unexpectadly | 20:16 |
| elizabeth | but if u pls can keep helping me to compile i am ready | 20:16 |
| giarca | ActionParsnip: thanks... I'll try later | 20:16 |
| giarca | now I need working machine :P | 20:16 |
| elizabeth | let me give you the sheet where i am at right now | 20:16 |
| elizabeth | here it is: http://pastebin.com/m65cb0eaa | 20:18 |
| LogicFan | will installing kde-desktop pkg with PPA repo install packages for equivalents i already have for GNOME? e.g. open office? | 20:18 |
| elizabeth | right now i am at line 4 and i just cant get trhough | 20:18 |
| ActionParsnip | LogicFan: no, just the kde if you install kubuntu-desktop it will give you a full kubuntu deskto p suite of apps | 20:19 |
| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: wel are you 32bit or 64bit? | 20:20 |
| elizabeth | 32 bit | 20:20 |
| LogicFan | ActionParsnip, if i dont want the full-blown KDE 4.2 desktop suite of apps, can i just install kde pkg and it'll pull in 4.2 from PPA repo? | 20:20 |
| elizabeth | notebook compaq presario series v3000 model v3417la (wireless card not recognized by kubuntu) | 20:21 |
| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: then you need to download hybrid-portsrc.tar.gz and extract it, you were doing it earlier with something-kangaroo earlier | 20:21 |
| elizabeth | i got it | 20:21 |
| elizabeth | thats why i am stock on how to compile it Action | 20:22 |
| elizabeth | sorry i dont know much about this lenguage :( | 20:22 |
| elizabeth | Action i did download that hybrid-portsrc-x86_32-v5_10_27_14-tar-gez | 20:23 |
| ActionParsnip | LogicFan: then add the ppa repo and then run sudo apt-get install kdebase* kde-window-manager | 20:23 |
| elizabeth | thats the one i got then this morning Magic was guiding me to compile it | 20:24 |
| LogicFan | ActionParsnip, am i correct in assuming there is no kde meta pkg for 4.2 PPA repo? | 20:24 |
| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: thats fine, extract that and follow the guide | 20:24 |
| AlbaT | hi ppl | 20:24 |
| AlbaT | anyine here good with sound? | 20:24 |
| elizabeth | thats what i am saying i am stock at numer 4 line | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | LogicFan: not that i'm aware of. i use kde so as soon as i aded the repo and updated my system saw updates | 20:25 |
| AlbaT | lol sry anyone here good with setting up creative on ubuntu | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: open a konsole and get to where the folder is in the terminal (so if the file is on your desktop you need to type: cd Desktop if its in the root of your home folder you are already there) | 20:26 |
| elizabeth | desktop | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | AlbaT: run lspci one line will identify the card, you can websearch using that info. Creative support sucks sooo hard | 20:27 |
| elizabeth | ok now i am on cd desktop | 20:27 |
| === doychev is now known as bahurec | ||
| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: then run: tar zxvf ./hybrid-portsrc-x86_32-v5_10_27_14-tar-gz | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | elizabeth: if you type tar zxvf ./hy then press tab it will aoutocomplete for you | 20:28 |
| elizabeth | i got: tar: error is not recoverable: exiting now | 20:28 |
| elizabeth | error delayed from previous errors | 20:29 |
| lovre | ActionParsnip: when i run the last command on that link, "sudo ntfsfix /dev/hda1" i get this error: "Refusing to operate on read-write mounted device /dev/hda1".. any ideas? | 20:30 |
| maco | lovre: unmount it | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lovre: sudo umount /dev/hda1 | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lovre: then manually mount it yourself | 20:30 |
| maco | right-click -> eject if you'd like | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | !ntfs-3g | 20:30 |
| ubottu | ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lovre: read that, you will need ntfs-3g to write the data back to the partition | 20:31 |
| maco | ActionParsnip: um, backwards | 20:31 |
| mefisto__ | JontheEchidna: is there a reason why the kubuntu logo for kickoff menu is not used instead of the usual default kde logo? | 20:31 |
| maco | his problem is that it *is* mounted read-write. it needs to *not* be mounted read-write | 20:31 |
| JontheEchidna | nobody bothered? | 20:31 |
| elizabeth | Action i got his: http://pastebin.com/m1cf5a232 | 20:32 |
| lovre | ActionParsnip: but i have mounted it myself with ntfs-3g forced. | 20:32 |
| lovre | ActionParsnip: another thing, when i try to umount it, says device is busy. * | 20:32 |
| lovre | ? | 20:32 |
| mefisto__ | JontheEchidna: just wondering if there was a policy or something preventing that | 20:32 |
| JontheEchidna | nah | 20:33 |
| lovre | maco: i see. but i cant unmount it now. says device is busy | 20:33 |
| maco | are you cd'd into it anywhere? | 20:33 |
| maco | you cant have any terminals open cd'd to it | 20:33 |
| ActionParsnip | lovre: then make sure your pwd is not on the partition and also try running lsof | grep /mount/point/of/partition | 20:34 |
| lovre | ActionParsnip: omg my pwd was on the partition, STUPID! thank you | 20:35 |
| ActionParsnip | d'oh | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | hence its busy | 20:36 |

| viniciuspt | Hello for all | 21:24 |
| PSiL0 | alex_: to turn off your touchpad, just open konsole and type "sudo rmmod psmouse" | 21:26 |

| viniciuspt | it is impossible leaves it opened, therefore after some hours it is consuming all the memory RAM (I arrived to have 600MB of RAM used by it) | 21:33 |

| shadeslayer | misak: english please | 22:13 |

| remu | Hey guys, two quick questions, 1st, is there a network install/minimal iso for Kubuntu like there is for Ubuntu? I searched around, and I don't think there is, but I wanna check in case I'm overlooking something | 23:27 |
| remu | Anyone? | 23:32 |
| pulc | hi | 23:33 |
| mefisto__ | remu: a network install has no desktop, so a kubuntu one doesn't make sense. it would be the same | 23:33 |
| pulc | !list | 23:33 |
| ubottu | Hi! I'm #kubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 23:33 |
| mefisto__ | remu: unless I've misunderstood you | 23:34 |
| remu | mefisto__, no, I mean the install disk which has a text installer, but it gets all of the packages from the internet, so that there is no need to to updates right after install. Also, the iso is only 10 mb | 23:34 |
| remu | mefisto__, like this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD, but for Kubuntu | 23:36 |
| remu | And my second question is this, I was dabbling with Kubuntu earlier (a week or so ago), I had KDE4.2 installed, and for some reason changing the volume had no effect on the video player....I think its called Dragon? On everything else, the audio would change, just not on that. | 23:40 |
| mefisto__ | remu: have you ever used the minimal install iso? | 23:41 |
| remu | I have for Ubuntu before | 23:42 |
| remu | not for Kubuntu | 23:42 |
| remu | thats what I'm looking for for Kubuntu | 23:42 |
| mefisto__ | remu: I don't know how it installs, but if you can install with no gnome desktop, then you could just install kubuntu-desktop | 23:42 |
| remu | it installs just like the alternate-cd | 23:43 |
| remu | except, instead of the packages being stored on the disc | 23:43 |
| remu | they are pulled from the repos | 23:43 |
| mefisto__ | remu: is there an option to NOT install gnome, or any desktop? | 23:43 |
| tuxi | remu, I can't replicate your Dragon player issue both volume controls (in the player and kmix) work | 23:43 |
| remu | Hmm | 23:44 |
| remu | tuxi, I'm gonna install Kubuntu again, and give it one more shot. kmix was affecting the audio for everything BUT dragon | 23:45 |
| tuxi | no idea what the explanation could be | 23:45 |
| tuxi | 4.2 is now in the backports too | 23:46 |
| mefisto__ | remu: what is the master channel kmix is using? | 23:47 |
| remu | PCM | 23:47 |
| mefisto__ | remu: or are you saying that none of the kmix sliders affect volume? | 23:47 |
| tuxi | probably the wrong channel, remu | 23:47 |
| remu | they do, just not in Dragon | 23:47 |
| mefisto__ | remu: none of them? | 23:48 |
| remu | I'm gonna go install it and see what happens this time around. | 23:48 |
| remu | I dunno, I don't have it installed right now. | 23:48 |
| tuxi | the master didn't affect dragon? | 23:48 |
| remu | Don't remember completely, I think it did, but the problem with Master is that it works on a logarithmic scale | 23:48 |

| mefisto__ | remu: look in systemsettings > multimedia and set everything to use the same device preference order | 23:51 |
| remu | Alrighty, will try that | 23:51 |
| remu | thanks | 23:51 |
| remu | I'm gonna go try this out now folks, thanks for your help | 23:51 |
| mefisto__ | remu: and the mini installer, does it insist that you install a desktop? can you install without gnome? | 23:52 |
