StR|Sangrealkaddi, was just a joke00:26
StR|SangrealDaddy, use apt-get dist-upgrade and then restart x00:27
StR|Sangrealsimple update is not enough, you need distupgrade00:28
DaddyLonglegsStR|Sangreal: I did it last night, but nothing happened.00:28
StR|Sangrealand if that doesnt work, i have no clue00:28
StR|Sangrealthats because the repository isnt listening00:28
StR|Sangrealyou must have coppied it in a wrong way, misspellt or so00:28
DaddyLonglegsStR|Sangreal: I'm sure there's no misspelling in my repos.00:29
StR|Sangrealtry that again, make sure its copied ok, with the word main at the end00:29

DaddyLonglegsmusical: I have kdebase-workspace-bin 4:4.1.4 installed.00:33
musicalahh00:33
DaddyLonglegsI haven't updated to 4.2 yet, but I'd like to.00:33
musicaldid you update after you installed the ppa repository?00:33
wildbatany how do it make kubuntu read the sleep and hibernate button work on my laptop?00:34
DaddyLonglegsAdept fails to connect to PPA repo.00:34
musicalI see00:34
DaddyLonglegsYes, I did.00:34
musicaltry synaptic package manager00:34
StR|Sangrealhmm a good idea00:34
StR|Sangrealhowever the repo file is the same00:34
DaddyLonglegsI have to install it.00:34
musicalshouldnt make a difference - but its better than adept, imho00:34
StR|Sangrealinstall gnome and all the stuff00:34
StR|Sangrealubuntu-desktop is the package00:35
DaddyLonglegsNo. Not gnome :(00:35
* DaddyLonglegs hates gnome00:35
musicalsame here....lol00:35
musicaldont like gnome!00:35
StR|Sangrealyou can use them simultaneously and use kdm even on gnome00:35
musicaltrue, but thats just bloat00:35
DaddyLonglegsSo, you say that's my last option?00:36
StR|Sangreali use kde for common household chores, windows for negotiations with customers (damned my company) and gnome if i code sth or make calculations...00:36
StR|Sangrealgnome is freaking stable00:37
musicaldoes adept ask for the admin password when you open it?00:37
StR|Sangrealomg sure it does00:37
DaddyLonglegsIt's ugly at the same time.00:37
StR|Sangrealit isnt ugly, it is only plain00:37
musicalDaddyLonglegs:  does adept ask for the admin password when you open it?00:37
DaddyLonglegsYes. It does.00:37
musicalcant think why you cant use ppa repository00:38
DaddyLonglegsYou know what?00:38

DaddyLonglegsAdept cannot connect to PPA though.00:39
DaddyLonglegsThat's really strange.00:39

StR|Sangrealthen install ubuntu-desktop and use synaptic00:39
DaddyLonglegsOf course it is.00:39

* DaddyLonglegs watches KDE 4.2 videos on Youtube and wishes he could have KDE 4.2 installed on "leno" one day.00:57
StR|SangrealSanreal is really sorry for Daddy and wishes him better mood00:58
chairmandoes anybaady have flyback?00:59
kaddiDaddy don't be too sorry KDE 4.2 deleted all my plasma settings two days ago and since then kopete decided to erase all my accounts every 10 hours... i'm almost ready to step back down.. nothing but troubles00:59
DaddyLonglegsKDE 4.1 also has its own troubles.01:00
DaddyLonglegsThis is Linux world.01:00
kaddii know, but i found they were less damaging in my daytoday life01:00
kaddi:p01:00
DaddyLonglegs4.1?01:00
musicalwell the one odd thing Ive found in kde 4.2 is that both dolphin and konqueror have suddenly started to run slow!01:02
musicalIm using Thunar instead01:02
StR|Sangrealand i nautilus01:02
kaddithe troubles of 4.1, yes... i'm currently having some bad luck... everything is acting up and i haven't found out why... but basically every kde application does a complete revert to default values every day or so01:02
DaddyLonglegsHave they fixed tray's icons background to be transparent in 4.2?01:03
kaddisome of them, yes01:03
StR|Sangrealseit nicht bōse auf linux01:03
musicalanother thing is that kubuntu (intrepid) is only seeing 2.5G! It should see 3.2 - I have 4G installed!01:04
kaddii'm going to reboot brb01:04
StR|Sangrealkarmic would resolve that01:05
musicalusing lmsensors etc - Im seeing a sys temp of 86 degrees! Does anyone know what is sys temp? My CPU temp is 4601:06
musicalevga mobo01:06
StR|Sangreal86 Farenheit = 46 celsia or not?01:06
musicalcelsius01:06
musical86 celsius01:07
StR|Sangrealhmm might be a hdd temp as well01:07

musicalthermistors01:08
musicaldont think its the hd01:08
musicalmobo temp in bios seems normal01:08

jithinexorg 70% cpu with desktop effects on kubuntu using kde 4.2? can any one help me foxong this out03:47
=== k4v is now known as m4v
sortealjithine : What cpu specs04:10
jithinesorteal: intel core 2 duo t7300 @ 2Ghz04:11
jithinesorteal: and intel 965 GM graphics chipset04:11
sortealWell it's surely up to par.  Compiz-Fusion can be rather buggy though so I'd recommend turning the desktop effects off unless you need them or just want to show off to your Windows friends :)04:12
jithinesorteal: its not compiz its the desktop effects with kwin04:13
sortealOr you could try messing with the compiz settings and only using the effects you want and turning off the ones you don't really need or want04:13
sortealah04:13
sortealok04:14
sortealWait the standard desktop effects in kubuntu are powered by compiz though04:14
sortealhave you tried adjusting the settings?04:15
jithineonly settings i can see are that of some open gl vsync etc04:17
jithinei tried that .04:19
jithinethis 70 % cpu by xork is not happening instantaneouly04:19
sortealk are you using nvidia or ati drivers?04:19
jithineit starts at aroung 20-30 and at some later point jumps to 7004:19
jithineno i have intel graphics04:19
sortealoh ok might have just been a process "hiccup"04:19
jithinebut it happens always04:19
sortealSorry I wasn't more help04:20
sortealHmm if I find anything out about it I'll be sure and pass it along04:20
sortealkde 4.2?04:20
jithinesorteal: thanks for listening me out.  u are the first one responded :)04:20
jithineyesy kde 4.204:21
sortealk I'll search around see what I can find04:21
jithinesorteal: ok04:21
goofeysorteal: it's no compiz in kde 4.204:26
sortealoh ok thx I thought it was based on the same code.  Glad you corrected me thx04:27
goofeysorteal: kwin's effects are written from scratch (IIRC)04:28
sortealoh nice04:28
DaemonFCKWIN is more bloated04:29
sortealI'm still not totally familiar with kde 4 just to much of a die hard 3.5 fan I guess :)04:29

goofeyibuffy: the easy way to find is go to konqueror -> help -> about kde04:57
goofeyibuffy: not sure how in cli04:57
ibuffygoofey: that shows what version of kde04:58
ibuffy...04:58
ibuffynot kubuntu04:58
slartibartfastyou seem to want to know the version of kde instead of kubuntu ....04:58
goofeyibuffy: oops - sorry05:00
slartibartfastwhat does "cat /etc/issue" say05:00
dillinjahdoes anyone know how to prevent a specific user account from having write access to a volume located on /media/sdb105:00
dillinjahwould I use chmod?05:00
slartibartfastibuffy: for the distro version you also can use lsb_release -a05:02
goofeydillinjah: what's the owner:group of /media/sdb1?05:02
dillinjahroot:root i believe05:02
dillinjahdrwxrwxrwx 1 root      root 634880 2009-02-13 20:25 sdb105:03
dillinjahthats whats listed when i do ls -l /media05:03
goofeyok, that's chmod 77705:03
goofeyso, if we remove write for "all" that would be 766?05:03
dillinjahthe thing is, I would like other users to be able to write to it05:03
dillinjahjust not a specific user05:03
goofeydillinjah: not 776, 77505:04
dillinjahok05:04
goofeycreate a group that everyone is part of but them05:04
goofeyand then makde that dir that group05:05
goofeyand use 775 to keep world from write access05:05
dillinjahah05:05
goofeydoes that seem right?05:05
dillinjahthats what they pay you the big bucks for05:05
dillinjahyeah it does05:05
goofey:)05:05
bonek1002whoiii05:06
bonek1002kok sepi05:07
dillinjahso, i am trying to figureout what it would look like, lets say i created a group called nowrite05:07
bonek1002pada kemana aja05:07
goofeyit should look like drwxrwxr x 1 root      nowrite 634880 2009-02-13 20:25 sdb when you're done05:07
goofeyright?05:09
goofeychown root:nowrite and chmod 775 are the commands05:09
dillinjahok, i am going to try that,there is no way that I could screw up the hard drive is there?05:10
dillinjahlike make it impossible to read?05:11
goofeynot with those 2 commands, no05:11
goofeythe full commands are sudo chown root:nowrite /dev/sdb1 and sudo chmod 775 /dev/sdb105:11
dillinjahnice....let me try this....05:11
goofeyafter you create the nowrite group05:11
dillinjahok, makes more sense to name it writetodisk , cause the group will be able to write to the disk, the other user I dont add will not be able to...05:14
dillinjahlets run the commands and see what happens05:14
goofeygl05:14
dillinjahits weird. if i run the commands it doesnt show a change when i run ls -l05:21
dillinjahit does if I do it for dev/sdb105:21
dillinjahbut not for media/sdb105:21
dillinjahso I ran05:25
dillinjahdillinjah@conang:/$ sudo chown root:writetodisk /media/sdb105:25

slartibartfasttest1234: there is no root password ... why you need that?06:49
slartibartfastfor administrative things use sudo06:50
test1234slartibartfast: well i locked it by mistake, and to unlock it it wouldnt take blank password06:50
slartibartfastin a terminal you can do sudo -i to get a root shell06:51
slartibartfasta live cd is not writable so you can not change anything in its default behaviour06:51

mefisto__hi. what is the difference between the desktop kernel installed in k/ubuntu desktop and the server kernel? as I understand it, the server kernel supports PAE (can access more than 4GB ram). are there any disadvantages to using the server kernel in a desktop system? why isn't PAE enabled in all the ubuntu kernels?11:08
hansenmefisto__: just use a 64bit kernel instead11:11
mefisto__hansen: can I download a 64bit processor to go with that?11:12
hansenoh, you're one of the few who has an old CPU but lots of RAM.11:12
mefisto__hansen: my question is about desktop vs server kernels, not 32bit vs 64bit11:12
yoritomonobody edit cd's images here?11:13
mefisto__hansen: plenty of people have old CPUs11:13
hansenI have a bunch of servers running ubuntu. The only noticable difference is that they use lilo instead of grub for some reason, and that the kernels have "server" in the name11:13
mefisto__hansen: I'm assuming the difference is more than just the name, otherwise the same kernel would be used, surely11:14

XPS_M1330I bet14:24
MaGicKanGaRooapt-get install kubunt-desktop14:24
MaGicKanGaRoo*kubuntu-desktop14:25
giarcaLOL you're right, withthe14:25
XPS_M1330it's just that in Mandriva there's a megapackage that contains the latest versions of everything you need, I figured there would be something like that14:25
XPS_M1330kubuntu-desktop package? thanksQ!14:25
giarcaMaGicKanGaRoo: exactly what i was writing14:25
MaGicKanGaRoosorry to pip you to it :)14:25
giarcayeah XPS_M1330that package14:25
MaGicKanGaRooyeah its a metapackage that installs all your bits and bobs14:25
XPS_M1330once I have both DE installed, will me menus all be flooded with both base gnome apps and kde apps?14:27
MaGicKanGaRookde4 has quite a good menu system, kickstart iirc, so shouldnt be to flooded14:27
MaGicKanGaRoognome when i used to have it was a bit flooded yes14:27
MaGicKanGaRooon the plus side it will encourage you to launch more via alt f2 :)14:28

BluesKajhiyas14:28
XPS_M1330right!14:28
XPS_M1330anyway most apps I open regularly have a launch button on the top panel14:29
XPS_M1330what's the best documentation page out there, say, that's got all the basic commands and explains stuff?14:29
MaGicKanGaRoohttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/ is pretty good14:30
XPS_M1330Is KDE4 stable now? A couple' months ago I used to run KDE 4.1 with Mandriva, it was so buggy I switched to gnome14:30

XPS_M1330thanks, MaGicSkiPpy14:31
MaGicKanGaRoowell ive been using its a lot better than k 4.014:31
MaGicKanGaRooim running 4.2 atm which is pretty good14:31
MaGicKanGaRoobut its personal taste14:31
XPS_M1330isn't the 4.3 out already?14:31
XPS_M1330well I actually love it, all its features, but several bugs got really annoying on the long run14:32
MaGicKanGaRoosometimes its a bit vista ish, but you can take most of the fancy stuff out, dont really use the applets14:32
MaGicKanGaRoonot sure about 4.3 sure, its in dev14:32
XPS_M1330I liked the fancy stuff14:32
MaGicKanGaRoosee, personal choice :)14:32
MaGicKanGaRooi like that it doesnt hide things from you like i felt gnome did14:33
MaGicKanGaRoobut then the ultra purest in me likes the idea of ion or something like that, strip it down completly14:33
XPS_M1330biggest problems I had was apps crashing all the time (especially kmail), Amarok couldn't handle iPod, and that applet to mount USB flash drives didn't work most of the time14:33
MaGicKanGaRoobut kde does me fine 99% of the time which is fine by me :)14:33
MaGicKanGaRoomaybe you should try 4.2?14:34
MaGicKanGaRoothe usb flashy thing was ok for me in 4.1 and it defo is in 4.214:34
XPS_M1330I ended up liking gnome, but I find it's not very powerful, can't customize it as much as I want to14:34
SandGorgonl14:34
XPS_M1330that was 4.1, yes14:34
MaGicKanGaRooi dont have an ipod so i dont know about that; and i use swift dover rather than kmail14:34
sushiXi am trying to use remote desktop and i am getting an error -> Connection to host "172.13.34.43.:5900" was closed14:35
XPS_M1330I do want to try the 4.2. I'll just wait a few days for spring break, right now is not the time to invest a lot of time in the computer (exams). I'll download it today at university though (download limit at home!)14:35
XPS_M1330swift dover?14:36
XPS_M1330never heard of that one14:36
MaGicKanGaRoo*switftdove and swiftfox14:36
SandGorgonl created a VM for virtualbox from a commandline install and put minimal install on KDE on it. Work really well14:36
MaGicKanGaRootheyre cpu optimized versions of firefox and thunderbird with enlightenment14:36
XPS_M1330I was using thunderbird, was the less annoying one, but I don't like any email client out there, they seem all incomplete and buggy and not customizable14:36
XPS_M1330now I use evolution14:36
BluesKajwow swiftfox..haven't heard that name for a couple of yrs14:36
sushiX i am trying to use remote desktop and i am getting an error -> Connection to host "172.13.34.43.:5900" was closed any idea what could be the problem14:37
MaGicKanGaRoois their a vnc server running on  172.13.34.43?14:37
MaGicKanGaRoowhat do you use blueskaj?14:37
BluesKajFF & T-bird , but I'm a bit lazy ...iwas a kmail and konq user til kmail changed it's look14:38
MaGicKanGaRoonever tried kmail.  had a go with evolution as i would sync with my phone out of the box14:39
BluesKajkonq is nolonger worth fighting for IMO14:39
napterkHello! i started kde with "X & DISPLAY=:0" startkde from the terminal, but i get now "kstartupconfig4 does not exist or fails. The error code is 3."14:39
BluesKajI even use dolphin as the file manager now14:40
SandGorgonBluesKaj: konq was never the point, it was the webkit engine... and that's a better renderer than FF. Look at the new Safari benchmarks14:40
MaGicKanGaRooi use konq quite often, we have an RT server that just runs a million times quicker in konq14:40
SandGorgonWebkit with Firefox's XUL plugins.... yummm14:40
napterki renamed my . kde and .kde4 because i couldnt login after the login screen14:40
MaGicKanGaRoowhat appens when you try to login via kdm?14:41
BluesKajBTW safari has anew version out for windows & mac , supposedly 10 X faster than IE and 3 X faster than FF14:41
MaGicKanGaRoosounds good :) tried it a few weeks ago in wine... it didnt go well :(14:42
XPS_M1330what's the deal with all the fuss around browser speed? it depends more on the connection speed14:42
napterkMaGicKanGaRoo>>>?14:43
BluesKajXPS_M1330 , yeah, all things being equal except the browsers i guess14:43
XPS_M1330you have to wait 5 secs on the first load... big deal!14:43
MaGicKanGaRookdm = the login manager, where you have your username and password14:43
XPS_M1330I think opera is best14:43
MaGicKanGaRoonot so much for me XPS, alot of the servers i use browsers with are on a Lan/wan14:44
SandGorgonXPS_M1330: not entirely, the gecko webpage renderer vs the webkit renderer and the squirrelfish javascript engine vs the tracemonkey javascript engine is waht makes them different14:44
XPS_M1330I'm in an Opera window right now! internal chat engine14:44
sven_hello all, is their software in (k)ubuntu available to recover date from an usb-harddisk? the disk seems to be corrupt (ntfs d-drive is corrupt) but has all my personal files :s how can I recover it?14:45
MaGicKanGaRoosven was it formated with extfs3?14:46

ForzaPalermohey guys i have 3 internal haredrives, one 200gb for my ubuntu OS, the other two (1.5TB each) i want PURELY for storage and will LVM.... my question iswhen i format it iusing fdisk... do i make it a primary partiiton??? and how do i know im getting all 1.5TBS..... it asks questions about cylinders.. i am confused please help!15:18
MaGicKanGaRooyou can have 4 primary partions per hard disk15:19
el:D15:19
MaGicKanGaRooif you arent partitioning up those 1.5 drives15:19
MaGicKanGaRooyou should be ok to do them as 1 primary partion a piece15:19
MaGicKanGaRooare you raiding them?15:19
ForzaPalermowell either raid or LVM15:20
ForzaPalermowhatever is better/easier15:21
ForzaPalermoi jsut want to the two 1.5TB drives to be seen as one15:21
PodeCoetMaGicKanGaRoo: Wait a sec, you're not Australian, YOU'RE BRITISH!15:21
MaGicKanGaRoothis is true :)15:22
mefisto__that's the magic!15:22
MaGicKanGaRoook well for them to be seen as one thats not the partitioning really15:22
MaGicKanGaRooyou need to raid them either as raid 0 or raid 1 striping or mirroring15:23
MaGicKanGaRoothen when you install then they will be seen as one drive15:23
PodeCoethttp://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/sandwich.png15:24
ForzaPalermobut i dont want to install, i already have my OS setup15:24
PodeCoetheehee... oldie but goodie :D15:24
ForzaPalermoi want to do this without my OS setup on that drive, just for storage nothing else15:24
nicolaialexanderi just installed ubuntu and i need to have root access does anyone know how to gain root access i know the password but i cant access the root from the log in screen.  I am also dual booting.15:25

ForzaPalermoso when you do an fdisk /dev/sda and pick primary partioin, and go through all the steps15:26
ForzaPalermowill it give me all my 1.5tb in that parition15:26
ForzaPalermois ther ea limit?15:26
user32768i am trying to mount a samba share, ideally so that it can be mounted from kde.  its set up in fstab and can be mounted from a shell with sudo mount, but seems to require sudo?  and i have found no way to doing this via kde, either.  can anyone here help?15:29
Rioting_pacifista 1.5Tb drive is only 1.36 Tib15:29
Rioting_pacifisterm you can make it user mountable15:30
ForzaPalermoright but goign throuhg the default motions will give me 1.3615:30
ForzaPalermois my question15:30
Rioting_pacifistyou will loose a few bytes (litterally a few) to the partition table but yes15:31
ForzaPalermook now my next question15:31
PodeCoetmefisto__: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/brick_archway.png15:31
PodeCoetwhyat about that one :P15:31
ForzaPalermoso ive done that for my two drives15:31
ForzaPalermothen i ahve to give it a format15:32
ForzaPalermolike ext3 or ext4?15:32
Rioting_pacifistyeah you will need to format /dev/sda1  and /dev/sdb115:32
MaGicKanGaRoowait15:32
MaGicKanGaRooif you want it to be 1 drive on your machine15:32
MaGicKanGaRooyou need to use raid to merge the two logical drives to present them as 1 logical one to the os15:33
ForzaPalermoyes15:33
Rioting_pacifistor lvm15:33
MaGicKanGaRooyou can either do that in software or usually in hardware15:33
ForzaPalermoive tried hardware with raid controller15:33
ForzaPalermobut it still 2 sepearate15:33
ForzaPalermoin ubuntu15:33
elnico: have you ever logged onto your machine with the root account?15:33
MaGicKanGaRoooh sorry, i forgot about lvm ... rioting is right15:34
ForzaPalermoso i dont have to do this command sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda115:35
ForzaPalermoto each15:35
ForzaPalermo?15:35
Rioting_pacifistno you setup the raid/lvm 1st and then there will be a device on your system that represents both /dev/md0 or /dev/mapper/md0 or something like that, you format that 2.72Tb drive15:36
ForzaPalermook can you help me setup the raid or lvm.. again whatever is easier is fine15:37
lovrehi all15:37
elhi lovre.15:38
mefisto__user32768:  if it's in fstab it should automount (unless you've told it not to)15:38
lovrei have a simple question. I have a pc with kubuntu 8.10 installed. I have another pc (laptop) with windows XP installed. I have a crossover cable. How do i connect theese two machines into LAN? What settings do i set up15:38
ForzaPalermolovre: i think you need to set up samba if not mistaken... put them on the same network so that they can see and talk to eachother15:39
lovreForzaPalermo: do i have to set static IP and if yes, how to do this?15:39
ForzaPalermoi guess you dont have a router?15:40
mefisto__!samba15:40
ubottuSamba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.15:40
ForzaPalermothere you go... you can get all your instructions from there15:40
ForzaPalermoif you dont have a router its probabnly best to setup static ip and piut them in the same range for both15:40
Rioting_pacifistlovre: you will need to play with /etc/network/interfaces to set it up manually, it may be doable in NetworkManager but NetworkManager seams to be a PITA when i do anything unusual15:41
lovreForzaPalermo: thanks for the links15:41
ForzaPalermothank mefisto__15:41
ForzaPalermo:)15:41
lovreRioting_pacifist: ok, ill try it both ways, thank you15:41
ForzaPalermoRioting_pacifist: would you be able to help me setup raid or LVM with the OS already installed15:41
Rioting_pacifistsamba is what youll want once the networking is done eitherway (using Networkmanager or editing config files)15:42
ForzaPalermothen get system-config-samba... makes it easy to setup15:43
Rioting_pacifisthttp://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ is what you need it may look daunting but just read the relevnat sections, first install lvm215:43
ForzaPalermoRioting_pacifist: i have installed and followed those directions15:44
ForzaPalermobut i cant get past the first part of doing a pvcreate15:45
ForzaPalermosays that disks are mounted or in use... i dont remmebenr the exact error15:45
ForzaPalermobut this was after i did an fdsik to both drives, and then gave them both a ext4 file structure on their respective partiions.. maybe that waas a mistake?15:45
Rioting_pacifistmake sure they are not by running mount and checking if the disks are there15:45
ForzaPalermohow do i do that?15:47

Rioting_pacifistnot from linux aslong as you install lvm and activate the volume group, from windows i think its imposible16:30

ForzaPalermook great so in the future all i ahve to do is afctivate a voluime group even if i wipe the HD with the os completely?16:34
Rioting_pacifistyes, its tricky to mount from a livecd as by default a livecd doesnt load the correct modules, but it is doable (i think the command is modprobe loop ; modprobe lvm)16:35

sven_hello all, I have a usb-lacie-harddisk, and one partition seems to be corrupt. I have opened the usbdrive,and put the harddisk in my computer directly. But now in kubuntu, it asks me a password to access the partitions, why????16:40
whut_Where does Kubuntu mount DVD by Default?16:41
Rioting_pacifistwhut_: run mount to see but i think its /media/dvd16:42
Rioting_pacifistsven_: what happens when you try and mount i manually16:42
sven_but it mounts automaticly, but when I click on it, it asks a password16:42
Rioting_pacifistits because it requires root privilages to mount then, you can edit fstab to avoid this16:43
mefisto__mine mounts at /media/cdrom016:43
sven_Rioting_pacifist: how?16:43
XPS_M1330if I install the kubuntu-desktop package from HardyHeron, will I get KDE 3.5 or KDE 4.2 ?16:44

fosco__XPS_M1330, hardy = kde 3.516:44
XPS_M1330I would have thought KDE4 but when I look at the packages it sesms like it's KDE3<16:44
XPS_M1330What if I upgrade to intrepid first?16:44
sven_Rioting_pacifist: can you be more specific?16:44

XPS_M1330but KDE4 is fine with hardyheron?16:46
mefisto__XPS_M1330: I'm not saying it's going to be difficult upgrading. just that there are no guarantees it will be trouble-free16:47
Rioting_pacifistsven_: read though https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab#options bascially you have to add a line like /dev/sdb1 /media/lacie <filesystem> defaults,user 0 016:49
mefisto__sven_: the line for your dvd drive will probably start with  /dev/scd016:51
XPS_M1330I read someone with the same system saying at first wome things (including wifi) weren't working initially, but eventually they got fixed in subsequent releases. Does that mean I have a pretty good chance that everything's gonna work? Besides, I have a dell supported  ubuntu laptop16:51

david__Hi folks... quick question:  Is there any repo I can add to Intrepid to get PostgreSQL 8.2?  (8.3 is the only one available by default, and that won't work for a specific application I need to install... sigh)19:59
bipolargoofey, jamesjedimaster: I'm talking about mysqld-akonadi. that is kubuntu specific, unless gnome started using akonadi....19:59

MooqballOkay, I appreciate you trying to help me I'll be descriptive as possible. I right mouse click the grey globe thing. I set up new wireless connection (wan0 it says). I click on my home wireless network. I type in my key. I click next. It cranks for 2 min and then stops. So then I plugged directly into my modem20:22
Mooqballand it recognizes that its an ethernet cable and starts to crank. status: IP Configuration. Then it stops, and returns to grey globe.20:22

ErtheI'm not sure if I could speed this up at all  :)22:24
ActionParsnipno animations no loading things bobbing up and down22:24
ActionParsnipoh i bet you can22:24
ErtheResizing windows with wobbly windows on is a bit odd, but other than that, everything else is highly responsive, quick, crisp and clean.22:25
macoActionParsnip: i sit there saying "boun-cy! boun-cy! boun-cy!" in my head when i see the loading things22:25
ErtheWaiting to use KDE4 with all the bells and whistles enabled was worth the time spent waiting  :)22:25
ActionParsnipif you disable all window animations it'll be faster22:25
ErtheBut it's .. fast now..22:25
ActionParsnipmaco: i turned those off, waste of time22:25
ActionParsnipErthe: if you run a local dns server your web access will speed up a little22:26

UnixOnedrostie: I wanted to repository for kde4.222:49
Erthelovre: You can sync the terminal location with the directory the file is in.22:50
Erthelovre: So you can hit the up arrow key, enter22:50
UnixOnedrostie: because I just wanted to install an up2date intrepid + kubuntu including some of my favorite apps in one wash.22:50

Erthelovre: Enable the External Tools plugin22:51
ActionParsnipUnixOne: i dont know of anything else, you could ask in #kde22:51
UnixOneActionParsnip: they send me over her22:51
Erthelovre: You'll have to setup the script to execute files in the way you want, but that should work out well for you22:51
drostielovre: if it's not there, try Tools > Focus Terminal, should be underneath the "pipe to terminal" option or so.22:52
ActionParsnipUnixOne: lame22:52
drostieJust save your python script and then run it from the built-in terminal.22:52
Erthelovre: I agree, it's faster just to execute it by hand22:53

ActionParsnipUnixOne: all i can suggest is the ppa repo, its prety decent22:54
Erthelovre: You can configure the script to bind to a hotkey too.22:55
Erthelovre: Kate should give you enough variables to play with to do what you want though22:55
UnixOneyes, that's true. but I wanted something official if possible. I won't have anything in the sources.list when I run ubuntu-server that's why I'm kindly asking you here. The ppa is nice, but the official kde4.2 *.list would be sufficient22:56

luis__let me try and i tell u23:26
marcreicheltI am using cryptsetup with LUKS to encrypt external USB disks. Where can I define under which path the disks are mounted? Right now I am using /etc/fstab, but I think there must be something like udev doing this...23:26
=== alessandro_ is now known as alegiovy73
ActionParsnipluis__: does sudo shutdown -h now    work?23:28
drostiemarcreichelt: udev isn't respecting the mount points listed in /etc/fstab?23:28

drostiehm...23:30
marcreicheltdrostie: if I plug in an encrypted disk, a Qt dialog pops up and asks me for the password23:30
marcreicheltthat is working well23:30
marcreicheltbut after that, another dialog of KDE pops up - when I perform it to mount the partition it fails23:31
marcreicheltconfusingly, a "mount /mnt/mymountpoint" on the console works well23:31
marcreicheltas by now, I am always opening a console to do the mount23:31
marcreicheltdo you know if there is a solution to say udev which mount point it should use?23:32
ActionParsnipmarcreichelt: you can nadd an entry to /etc/fstab23:34
marcreicheltActionParsnip: that is what I did23:34
marcreicheltas I told before ;)23:34
DaSkreech!fstab23:34
ubottuThe /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 !Partitions23:34
