| SJr|Work | Okay how can I make a Kubuntu 8.10 alternate installer from the Windows on USB | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| mefisto__ | SJr|Work: you mean you want to do it in Windows? | 00:06 |
| SJr|Work | Yes | 00:06 |
| SJr|Work | cdavis are you cbdavis on Undernet? | 00:07 |

| AlanasAnikonis | http://photodeus.com/tmp/garbled_fonts-0.jpg who could tell me where to modify the system font so I can get rid of this madness | 00:13 |
| AlanasAnikonis | i just did a dist-upgrade and my KDE 4.x has a weird default system font | 00:13 |
| AlanasAnikonis | dingbats or whatever | 00:13 |
| slerder | Hi everyone. Im having a bit of a problem. Ever since today when I have my vlc window maximized i cannot see the top menu bar (organe) with the quit, maximize and minimize buttons. What could be causing this? Thanks. | 00:16 |
| mefisto__ | AlanasAnikonis: in systemsettings > regional and language, what languages are installed? (or is that unreadable too?) | 00:17 |
| AlanasAnikonis | it's quite unreadable... | 00:17 |
| AlanasAnikonis | i am unable to navigate there :P | 00:17 |
| AlanasAnikonis | but i'll try to run systemsettings | 00:17 |
| AlanasAnikonis | the name of the binary would help... | 00:17 |
| draik_ | I'm having an issue trying to write to my newly installed Kubuntu desktop. I keep getting 'Read-only file system' | 00:18 |
| draik_ | Did I overlook something. | 00:18 |
| draik_ | I just tried restarting the desktop and I've got bad sectors already on the new HDD. Very similar to the last one | 00:20 |
| carpii | using raid ? | 00:22 |

| === Danu is now known as SPIB | ||
| tuxi | slerder, does escape do anything for you? | 00:24 |
| === SPIB is now known as Danu | ||
| draik_ | carpii: No, not using RAID at all. | 00:25 |
| slerder | tuxi, nope but thanks anyway i found (googled, damn gotta love google) i used the command "metacity –replace". article here.. nice little read/tip metacity –replace | 00:25 |
| tuxi | OK | 00:25 |
| slerder | tuxi thanks anyway ;) that might just help you out in the future ;) | 00:26 |
| tuxi | I wasn't sure if you were maximized or full screen -- in full screen, the escape key or f will toggle to windowed | 00:26 |
| carpii | draik, faulty hd controller maybe? | 00:26 |
| SJr|Work | OMFG why does the installer force me to install from CD | 00:26 |
| carpii | seems odd that a new drive would fubar immediately after an old one | 00:26 |
| mefisto__ | AlanasAnikonis: name of the binary for the gui? that's qt-language-selector. or do apt-cache search language-pack-kde | 00:27 |
| tuxi | I've run into RO file systems on improperly unmounted VFAT filesystems but not ext3 | 00:27 |
| draik_ | Hmmm... there appears to be a difference in using CLI and Adept for my packages. CLI (yakuake and konsole) terminates my desktop's connection to the Internet. Adept, however, is flying through the downloads about 750-800 kB/s | 00:27 |
| draik_ | carpii: True. Right now I'm in the market for a new add-on card to support SATA at 3.0GB/s | 00:27 |
| tuxi | draik_, are you using aptitude on the command line? | 00:27 |
| AlanasAnikonis | http://photodeus.com/tmp/garbled_menu.jpeg and http://photodeus.com/tmp/garbled_menu1.jpeg | 00:28 |
| draik_ | tuxi: Nope. I'm using 'sudo apt-get upgrade' | 00:28 |
| tuxi | strange | 00:28 |
| draik_ | Very | 00:28 |
| tuxi | have you run fsck on the new disk? | 00:29 |
| draik_ | I'm still doing the upgrades. Should I wait for them to finish downloading (about 3m 30s)? | 00:29 |
| tuxi | if it's read-only they won't install | 00:30 |
| draik_ | Good point | 00:30 |
| mefisto__ | AlanasAnikonis: can you read anything if you do kdesudo qt-language-selector --mode select | 00:30 |
| draik_ | Konsole is open | 00:30 |
| draik_ | What should I enter, tuxi? | 00:30 |
| tuxi | I'm stabbing in the dark on the read-only issue | 00:30 |
| draik_ | Oh. OK. | 00:30 |
| tuxi | you need to unmount the filesystem to run a check | 00:31 |
| AlanasAnikonis | mefisto__: unknown option --mode | 00:31 |
| AlanasAnikonis | it does run though | 00:31 |
| draik_ | Downloads will be done in about 30s | 00:31 |
| tuxi | give that a go -- maybe your OK | 00:32 |
| tuxi | s/your/you're | 00:32 |
| draik_ | 10s... | 00:32 |
| mefisto__ | AlanasAnikonis: ok, try sudo instead of kdesudo | 00:32 |
| draik_ | cross your fingers cuz here we go... | 00:32 |
| AlanasAnikonis | mefisto__: it started doing something :) | 00:33 |
| draik_ | odd... They seem to be installing just fine with Adept. | 00:33 |
| * tuxi crosses his fingers for draik_ | 00:33 | |
| draik_ | Thanks tuxi. I find it very difficult to type with my fingers crossed ;) | 00:34 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: careful with running fsck | 00:35 |
| f3rojo | COMO PUEDO ENTRAR A UN BUSACDOR DE INTERENET? | 00:35 |
| draik_ | !es | f3rojo | 00:35 |
| ubottu | f3rojo: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 00:35 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: best/easiest way is to do sudo touch /forcefsk then reboot and let it do the check on boot | 00:35 |
| f3rojo | MUCHAS GRACIAS | 00:35 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: best/easiest way is to do sudo touch /forcefsck (not forcefsk) then reboot and let it do the check on boot | 00:36 |
| AlanasAnikonis | kcmshell4 is what I was looking for! | 00:36 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: I want to be sure I have the syntax right. 'sudo touch /forcefsck /dev/sda1' | 00:36 |
| draik_ | Is that correct? | 00:36 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: No worries, I knew what you meant. | 00:36 |
| tuxi | mefisto__, that's new to me, thanks | 00:36 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: no, just: sudo touch /forcefsck | 00:36 |
| draik_ | OK | 00:37 |
| draik_ | OK | 00:37 |
| draik_ | Done | 00:37 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: it just creates the empty file 'forcefsck' in the root dir which will force fsck to run on next boot | 00:37 |
| tuxi | mefisto__, is that only the root partition which is checked? | 00:38 |
| draik_ | That's awesome. It just went down in my notebook for useful commands | 00:38 |
| mefisto__ | tuxi: not sure, but I think it checks everything in fstab, unless it has an fstab option not to do a fsck check | 00:39 |
| mefisto__ | tuxi: that is, things in fstab with a 0 on the end of the line (I think) | 00:40 |
| tuxi | ok, that would be enough -- if it's not in fstab, you can easily unmount, do the fsck, and remount | 00:40 |
| AlanasAnikonis | http://photodeus.com/tmp/screenshot1.jpeg this is my problem, i am hopeful now :) | 00:40 |
| tuxi | draik_, another option is "sudo shutdown -rF now" -- r is reboot and F is force fsck | 00:43 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: sudo touch /fastboot will do the opposite, it will NOT do a fsck check in case fsck wants to do one and you want to prevent it on next boot | 00:43 |
| racecar56 | gotta go bye | 00:44 |
| draik_ | Time to reboot the desktop and see what happens | 00:47 |
| tuxi | mefisto__, apparently it's the sixth field in /etc/fstab that controls fsck -- 0 isn't checked, 1 is first, followed by 2, and on higher | 00:47 |
| tuxi | for me, / has a 1 and all other HDDs have a 2 | 00:48 |
| draik_ | Reboot was good, fsck is working its way through my 1TB HDD. It's at 15%. Not bad. Running rather smoothly. | 00:48 |
| mefisto__ | tuxi: right. it's a good idea to use 0 on any windows partitions if you have them, and let windows do the checking of it's own filesystems | 00:50 |
| tuxi | I don't have windows partions outside of a VM | 00:50 |
| mefisto__ | tuxi: that's even better :) | 00:51 |
| draik_ | Speaking of VMs, can VMs be xfer'd between VirtualBox and VMware? | 00:51 |
| tuxi | :-D | 00:51 |
| epimeth | guys... I forgot what package I need to install for compiling stuff | 00:51 |
| epimeth | ? | 00:51 |
| tuxi | VirtualBox can use a VMWare file | 00:52 |
| epimeth | !compile | 00:52 |
| ubottu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 00:52 |
| epimeth | there we go :-) | 00:52 |
| draik_ | epimeth: build-essential | 00:52 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: vbox can use VMware's images. not sure if it's the same the other way around. | 00:52 |
| tuxi | build-essential is a minimum requirement | 00:52 |
| draik_ | epimeth: Or maybe with an s, build-essentials | 00:52 |
| BluesKaj | epimeth, build-essential | 00:52 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: they could tell you in #vbox | 00:53 |
| draik_ | OK. That works for me. VBox can't make an image from OS X, but VMware can. | 00:53 |
| draik_ | Safe to say it can be xfer'd? | 00:53 |
| tuxi | draik_, if you have an M$ VM, you will be using different virtual hardware and that makes it a pita | 00:53 |
| draik_ | OK, I'll ask them. | 00:53 |
| epimeth | BluesKaj, draik_: cheers | 00:53 |
| BluesKaj | epimeth :) | 00:54 |
| draik_ | Cheers epimeth | 00:54 |
| draik_ | I can't wait for DaSkreech to join #kubuntu. After so much of his help, it all turned out to be a failing HDD that was the cause of the issue. | 01:00 |
| draik_ | I am finally running smoothly online. | 01:01 |
| draik_ | No more freezing | 01:01 |
| draik_ | I take it back. It just froze. | 01:02 |

| zombine | Does anyone know how to make Kate write tabs when you press tab at the beginning of a line instead of spaces | 01:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Luija: no, lspci womt work in vista as it doesnt have the linux command | 01:42 |
| bazhang | Luija, you are dual booting with vista | 01:42 |
| Luija | i am in vista baz | 01:42 |

| * ActionParsnip hates vista almost as much as Apple | 01:42 | |
| bazhang | Luija, that does not answer my question | 01:42 |
| Luija | dual booting????? | 01:42 |
| Luija | than if i choose what OS i want to use in the start? | 01:43 |
| bazhang | yes | 01:43 |
| Luija | then yes :) | 01:43 |
| bazhang | Luija, you need to boot into the kubuntu and report what we are asking; lspci for chipsets (write them down) | 01:44 |
| bazhang | Luija, and tell us what ifconfig shows (wlan0, eth0, lo, etc) | 01:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Luija: we dont care, just get into ubuntu and you can tell us your networking chips | 01:44 |
| Luija | unknow hardware baz.... | 01:45 |
| bazhang | Luija, then you need to sudo dhclient eth0 and tell us what that says | 01:45 |
| Luija | i tried to do that | 01:45 |
| Luija | but dont solved :S | 01:45 |
| Luija | unknow hard again | 01:45 |

| bazhang | Luija, and you cant remember or write a command given here five seconds ago | 01:47 |

| Mr_Grieves| | Hi -- I'm rather new to kubuntu, I'm giving it a try after using gentoo for a while. I'm running into a couple of problems, though. | 02:15 |
| Mr_Grieves| | I've installed a package from source for development purposes, but when I try to run it from the command line, it tells me that /usr/bin/program cannot be found | 02:16 |
| Mr_Grieves| | It is installed in /usr/local/bin/program -- why isn't kubuntu checking past /usr/bin? | 02:16 |
| Mr_Grieves| | /usr/local/bin/ is actually before /usr/bin/ in my PATH | 02:17 |
| BluesKaj | Mr_Grieves|, did you try the runbox ..kdesudo name of app/path | 02:18 |
| Mr_Grieves| | BluesKaj: Ok -- that works now. Not sure why, but it does :P | 02:20 |
| Mr_Grieves| | One more question: I'm using 8.10 -- is it possible to get Qt 4.5 running in it without building from source? | 02:21 |
| Mr_Grieves| | All I see in google are links to 9.04 when I try to find info. | 02:22 |
| === michael__ is now known as Michael72 | ||
| BluesKaj | yeah, i think the older versions like 4.0 ,at least that's what is listed in the sources | 02:23 |
| Michael72 | !help | 02:25 |
| 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 | 02:25 |
| Mr_Grieves| | !find qt4 8.10 | 02:27 |
| ubottu | 8.10 is not a valid distribution ['dapper', 'gutsy', 'gutsy-backports', 'hardy', 'hardy-backports', 'intrepid', 'intrepid-backports', 'jaunty', 'jaunty-backports', 'kde4-ppa', 'kubuntu-members-kde4', 'medibuntu', 'partner'] | 02:27 |
| Mr_Grieves| | !find qt4 intrepid | 02:27 |
| ubottu | Found: libqwt5-qt4, libqwt5-qt4-dev, lsb-desktop, pinentry-qt4, pyqt4-dev-tools (and 67 others) | 02:27 |
| bazhang | Michael72, need a question | 02:27 |
| Mr_Grieves| | !info libqt4-dev intrepid | 02:28 |
| ubottu | libqt4-dev (source: qt4-x11): Qt 4 development files. In component main, is optional. Version 4.4.3-0ubuntu1.2 (intrepid), package size 5571 kB, installed size 26988 kB | 02:28 |
| Mr_Grieves| | Hmm, is there a list of all the repos that can be added and what they provide? Surely qt 4.5's rc1 made it into a tree somewhere. | 02:30 |
| Michael72 | bazhang: I need russian channel | 02:31 |

| bazhang | Michael72, #ubuntu-ru | 02:32 |
| Michael72 | Thanks | 02:32 |
| bazhang | np | 02:32 |
| Mr_Grieves| | There is not a list of unofficial repos? | 02:41 |
| Erthe | Hey, I'm trying to use recordmydesktop to make a video of KDE4, wondering if anyone knows a way to record the audio coming from Amarok with it? | 02:43 |
| bazhang | Mr_Grieves|, a list of every 3rd party repo and ppa in existence? | 02:44 |
| Mr_Grieves| | bazhang: Just the big ones :) | 02:45 |
| Erthe | Better yet, how can I get a list of audio devices on the command line? | 02:45 |
| bazhang | Mr_Grieves|, heh; well I am guessing 4.5 is what you are looking for, let me try a search for ppa's at least | 02:46 |
| bazhang | Erthe, lspci ? | 02:46 |
| Erthe | Which sound system does Kubuntu 8.10 use by default? | 02:49 |
| mefisto__ | Erthe: asoundconf list <-- is that the kind of thing you want? | 02:52 |
| Mr_Grieves| | bazhang: Yes, if there's a way to get 4.5, that'd be great :) | 02:53 |
| * Mr_Grieves| goes to google ppa... | 02:53 | |
| bazhang | !ppa | 02:53 |
| ubottu | With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 02:53 |
| bazhang | :) | 02:53 |
| Mr_Grieves| | bazhang: aha :) Is the ppa @ launchpad the only one? | 02:55 |
| bazhang | Mr_Grieves|, afaik yes | 02:55 |
| bazhang | the only ones should be (there are many) | 02:56 |
| draik_ | New 1TB HDD, brand new installation of Kubuntu 8.10 with KDE4.2. What would cause it to freeze every so often? Also, why would my Internet connection suddenly die on Kubuntu but not on my XP partition? | 03:09 |
| bazhang | external hdd? | 03:10 |
| draik_ | bazhang: No, internal | 03:15 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: what's freezing? everything? or just X ? | 03:16 |
| draik_ | Everything mefisto__ | 03:16 |
| mefisto__ | so you can't switch to a VT, for example? | 03:17 |
| draik_ | I can't CTRL+ALT+F1 or anything. I'm stuck right then and there. I can still move the mouse, but rarely is it all frozen where I have nothing. | 03:17 |
| draik_ | Let me rephrase that last part. | 03:17 |
| draik_ | It is all frozen, bur rarely the mouse. | 03:17 |
| draik_ | At times, I will just randomly lose my Internet connection on my desktop. No warning, no popup, nothing. | 03:22 |
| draik_ | ifconfig will show the IP and all. I eth0 down then eth0 up and I have no IP | 03:23 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: does it ever NOT freeze? eg if you let it run without using anything? does it ever ALWAYS freeze when you are doing something in particular? | 03:24 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: I have left it alone for a bit and it still freezes | 03:24 |
| draik_ | With the previous HDD, I noticed that nepomukservicestub was taking up 99-100% CPU | 03:24 |
| draik_ | I just lost Internet connection on the desktop during an upgrade. | 03:25 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: btw, what do you do after the freeze? | 03:25 |
| draik_ | Reboot it. I press the reboot button and return to what I was doing. | 03:26 |
| draik_ | I was on Yakuake | 03:26 |
| draik_ | I pressed F12 to put it up and then I pressed it again to make sure there isn't a delay or a freeze... | 03:27 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: you mean the reset button on the box, right? | 03:27 |
| draik_ | Yup | 03:27 |
| draik_ | I just lost my K menu and folder along with Show Dashboard, USB Notify and Trash. | 03:27 |
| draik_ | Ok, now it's frozen. | 03:28 |
| draik_ | Mouse moves around the screen, but everything else is MIA | 03:28 |
| draik_ | Rebooting | 03:28 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: ok, until you get this problem figured out, a safer way to recover from this is using "magic keys". hold down alt+SysRq (that's the "print screen button") and R E I S U B (also, I find that doesn't work in k/ubuntu unless I hold down ctrl as well) | 03:29 |
| draik_ | Will do | 03:30 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring. or BUSIER spelt backwards :) | 03:30 |
| draik_ | REI - bogus schooling building SUB - underwater boat with no screen doors | 03:32 |
| draik_ | Never mind, UEI is the schooling BS, REI is the outdoors store | 03:33 |
| draik_ | No Internet :( | 03:34 |
| draik_ | Ok, now it froze. Let's see what happens next mefisto__ | 03:37 |
| draik_ | Nothing. :( | 03:38 |
| draik_ | What was supposed to happen anyways, mefisto__ | 03:38 |
| draik_ | Ummm... It's like the OS is gone, but my desktop is still running. | 03:40 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: What did I do wrong? I held down ALT and then pressed SysRq. I then held down CTRL as I pressed on R E I S U B | 03:42 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: What happened? I can't restart my computer. | 03:43 |
| pablocnc444 | thinking about installing kubuntu on my laptop, but a little worried about wireless connection problems I've seen. Anybody else have any problems with wireless networking with kubuntu? | 03:59 |
| pablocnc444 | there must be almost a hundred people in this chatroom, doesnt anybody chat anymore in chat rooms? | 04:00 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: alt-ctrl-SysRq all held down, then REISUB in sequence (leaving about a second in between each to give things time to unmount and remount, etc) and on the B it should reboot. that doesn't work for you? maybe leave out the ctrl key? | 04:00 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: so with each press, you're holding down 4 keys | 04:01 |
| pablocnc444 | ok, since i feel like a ghost right now, can anybody acknowledge that they see my text? | 04:01 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 04:02 |
| pablocnc444 | is anybody actually at the terminal, or is this just people whose machines are connected to this channel? | 04:02 |
| pablocnc444 | wth, bots maybe? | 04:03 |
| mefisto__ | pablocnc444: I can see your text | 04:03 |
| pablocnc444 | thank God, thank you | 04:04 |
| mefisto__ | pablocnc444: I don't use wireless, but problems with wireless seem to be quite common. | 04:04 |
| pablocnc444 | haven't used irc chat in many years, but connected to this channel from the kubuntu.org website, saw all these people in here, and no one is chatting apparently but me | 04:05 |
| pablocnc444 | i see, so kubuntu might not be a good idea after all then | 04:05 |
| pablocnc444 | thx mefisto | 04:05 |
| mefisto__ | pablocnc444: the problems are usually not too hard to solve | 04:06 |
| mefisto__ | pablocnc444: some wireless drivers don't work out of the box, from what little I know. there's plenty of howto's on forums, etc | 04:07 |
| pablocnc444 | i'm very fluent in xp, almast aplus certified, but i looked everywhere on a kubuntu system for the wep key, and can't even find wireless properties. man. net hasn't been much help either/ | 04:07 |
| mefisto__ | !wireless | 04:08 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 04:08 |
| mefisto__ | try that link ^^ | 04:08 |
| pablocnc444 | headed there now, thx very much | 04:08 |
| navetz | how can i set my repositories to download the latest version of flash player? | 04:08 |
| mefisto__ | pablocnc444: also try googling your wireless hardware + ubuntu | 04:09 |
| mefisto__ | !info flashplugin-nonfree | 04:10 |
| ubottu | flashplugin-nonfree (source: flashplugin-nonfree): Adobe Flash Player plugin installer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 10.0.22.87ubuntu1~intrepid1 (intrepid), package size 18 kB, installed size 164 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 lpia) | 04:10 |
| mefisto__ | navetz: make sure multiverse is enabled and install or update | 04:10 |
| navetz | mefisto__: humm that is the latest one that debian supports i think, but not the lastest one out | 04:11 |
| mefisto__ | navetz: you can download direct from adobe.com too. they have ubuntu .deb packages, which makes it very easy | 04:12 |
| navetz | mefisto__;yea but then i have to manually check for updates dont I? Is there a way to add that to my repos? | 04:12 |
| mefisto__ | navetz: seems they are both the same version right now, 10.0.22.87 http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/flashplugin-nonfree http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ | 04:15 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: It doesn't work for me :( | 04:15 |
| draik_ | I guess it is all locked out | 04:15 |
| draik_ | I think I know why I'm getting a freeze | 04:16 |
| draik_ | I'm just noticing that not all of my apps are KDE4.2 | 04:16 |
| draik_ | I just ran 'sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade' and I have quite a few installs to do. | 04:17 |
| draik_ | Maybe this is why it is all failing. | 04:17 |
| mefisto__ | why draik_ ? | 04:17 |
| draik_ | I hope to have an internet connection long enough to upgrade everything and then hope even more that it doesn't freeze while in the process of upgrading. | 04:17 |
| draik_ | That would cause an issue, right? | 04:18 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: try doing the upgrades without X running, just in text mode VT | 04:18 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: I am doing that now. | 04:18 |
| draik_ | I'm hoping it doesn't freeze or cut out the Internet connection. | 04:19 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: so it still freezes even without X running? | 04:19 |
| draik_ | It has in the past. | 04:19 |
| draik_ | Maybe once or twice, but yeah. | 04:19 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: since it's a new disk, have you double checked the connectors? or maybe other cables that may have been accidentally knocked and loosened when you put the disk in? | 04:20 |
| draik_ | I've checked and nothing. I had to disconnect the 3 other HDDs when I was trying to install Kubuntu from the LiveCD | 04:21 |
| draik_ | Is the LiveCD different now than when it was first released on October 30, 2008? | 04:22 |
| draik_ | mefisto__: It froze. TTY1 reported it frozen. | 04:23 |
| draik_ | All upgrades have failed | 04:23 |
| draik_ | Can't download and can't install due to Read-only file system. | 04:23 |
| draik_ | Do I need to reinstall the OS? | 04:23 |
| mefisto__ | before the new disk, this never happened? | 04:23 |
| draik_ | Nope | 04:23 |
| draik_ | This is the 2nd 1TB HDD | 04:24 |
| draik_ | Never mind about the freezing. I think it was referencing the Internet connection. | 04:24 |
| draik_ | I was initially on a 500GB HDD; 320GB to Kubuntu while I had about 120GB to XP. | 04:25 |
| draik_ | I xfer'd the partition to the 1TB HDD while I have all of the 500GB to XP. | 04:25 |
| draik_ | XP works fine, but the 1TB HDD has been failing. This is the 2nd 1TB HDD. | 04:26 |
| draik_ | The first one was with me for 3 weeks to the day. | 04:26 |
| draik_ | Today is the start with a new HDD | 04:26 |
| mefisto__ | you could try reinstalling, but it might behave exactly the same. or you could try disconnecting other disks (if that would work with your setup) to see if it still freezes | 04:26 |
| mefisto__ | might be a hardware problem with the disk, too. it does happen with new disks sometimes | 04:27 |
| draik_ | :( | 04:27 |
| draik_ | I think I might have to start building a new system. | 04:27 |
| draik_ | Not that I mind, but I'd rather not. | 04:27 |
| mefisto__ | you're booting from the new disk? | 04:28 |
| draik_ | It's the 8.10 from when it was originally released. | 04:28 |
| draik_ | Was there a new one? | 04:28 |
| mefisto__ | I think it's the same, but not really sure | 04:29 |
| draik_ | I'll get the new one, that's not an issue. | 04:30 |
| draik_ | Assuming, of course, that there is a new one | 04:30 |
| Slartibartfast | draik_: a new one would be 8.10.1 iguess | 04:30 |
| draik_ | Why does the topic say '8.04.2 released'? | 04:31 |
| mefisto__ | maybe try the jaunty one? that is due to be released in april, right? probably not too different now than the april release | 04:31 |
| Slartibartfast | 8.04.2 is LTS | 04:31 |
| draik_ | Is 8.04 LTS? | 04:31 |
| draik_ | Ah | 04:31 |
| draik_ | OK | 04:31 |
| draik_ | Good point | 04:31 |
| mefisto__ | draik_: also, I think jaunty comes with kde4.2 so you won't need to upgrade | 04:32 |
| draik_ | I still have to install my other apps. I'm not too worried, but I'll be happy to lose the freeze and Internet drops. | 04:33 |
| draik_ | It's getting late and I have yet to grab lunch. | 04:33 |
| draik_ | I'll BRB and let you all know what happens. | 04:33 |
| Slartibartfast | don't know if it is only from here but it looks like http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/ has some problems | 04:34 |

| bazhang | let me install it :) | 08:48 |
| bazhang | is it the mono plugin? | 08:49 |
| thedark | the hidemyass proxy addon | 08:49 |
| bazhang | link? | 08:50 |
| bazhang | oh a proxy | 08:50 |
| thedark | sure, one sec | 08:50 |
| bazhang | thedark, is this with privoxy/tor ? | 08:50 |
| thedark | https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10002 | 08:51 |
| thedark | I don't know what privoxy/tor is | 08:51 |
| thedark | I assume an extension, but I never installed it | 08:51 |
| bazhang | let me try :) | 08:51 |
| bazhang | if you dont know tor, then you dont have it | 08:51 |
| * thedark nods | 08:51 | |
| thedark | I am just trying to get anonymized so I can watch videos at a site that is blocking my region | 08:52 |
| bazhang | you have to log in to do that? | 08:52 |
| dtchen_ | yeah, i have that complaint about bbc.co.uk's drwho site | 08:52 |
| maco | and if you do know tor, there's a good chance you're being man-in-the-middled :) | 08:53 |
| maco | dtchen_: we need to find a brit to let us proxy through them! | 08:53 |
| dtchen_ | nah, i just wait for them to be youtubed | 08:53 |
| maco | you still have my tennant-season-3 | 08:53 |
| dtchen_ | 4. | 08:54 |
| thedark | for me it is crunchyroll.com | 08:54 |
| maco | (aka new season 4) | 08:54 |
| maco | no it's tenant's 3rd. because eccleston was in new-season1 | 08:54 |
| thedark | I am trying to watch subtitled Korean dramas, but I currently live in Korea | 08:54 |
| dtchen_ | i see tennant s3 called s4. | 08:54 |
| thedark | hidemyass.com use to work, but starting today it seems crunchyroll.com outsmarted them as I now get the "Not available in your region :(." error | 08:54 |
| === mike is now known as Guest98345 | ||
| maco | dtchen_: well s4 isnt *really* s4, so it makes sense to me to use $dr-$season-$episode....like "3rd year in the reign of king whathisface" | 08:55 |
| thedark | how is it going bazhang? | 08:56 |
| bazhang | how do you login to mozilla? | 08:57 |
| thedark | login? | 08:57 |
| thedark | what do you mean? | 08:57 |
| bazhang | afaik I dont have an account there :) | 08:57 |
| thedark | ah | 08:57 |
| thedark | well I made one | 08:57 |
| bazhang | thedark, it took me to a login page | 08:57 |
| thedark | yeah you need an account | 08:57 |
| Slartibartfast | bazhang, indeed for experimental addons you need to login | 08:57 |
| bazhang | Slartibartfast, aha thanks | 08:58 |
| DaddyLonglegs | mefisto__: Hello buddy! I'm on KDE 4.2 finally! | 08:58 |
| * DaddyLonglegs hails from KDE 4.2 | 08:58 | |
| mefisto__ | :) well done! so how did you do it? what was wrong? | 08:59 |
| * Tm_T is old fart using KDE 4.2.65 | 09:00 | |
| thedark | how do you upgrade kde? | 09:00 |
| Slartibartfast | Tm_T: you're compiling that stuff yourself? | 09:01 |
| DaddyLonglegs | mefisto__: I just did what you told me. I enabled backports, restarted, and when I came up for the second time, it said updates available. I checked the updates and KDE 4.2 was among them. | 09:01 |
| Tm_T | Slartibartfast: yes | 09:01 |
| Slartibartfast | aha | 09:01 |
| mefisto__ | DaddyLonglegs: just after you left, I happened to go to the kubuntu 4.2 upgrade instructions, and noticed they now don't mention the ppa repo. it just says enable backports, and update/upgrade. so maybe that's as it's meant to be now? maybe the ppa has been taken down? | 09:03 |
| DaddyLonglegs | mefisto__: Oh realy?! It's pretty likely! Backports worked like a charm for me. I'm so happy now! I appreciate all your time and kindliness; you're a piece of gem! | 09:05 |
| * DaddyLonglegs sends a hug for mefisto__ | 09:05 | |
| Tm_T | Slartibartfast: part of daily routines, compile KDE <3 | 09:06 |
| mefisto__ | aw, thanks | 09:06 |
| Slartibartfast | Tm_T: hehehe ... must take a while before this is compiled :-) ... you you have a server farm with distcc to do that? :-) | 09:09 |
| * thedark implodes | 09:09 | |
| Tm_T | Slartibartfast: nope, just an old desktop, takes from 15 minutes to 6 hours, depends how much new changes | 09:10 |
| Slartibartfast | Tm_T: just looking around on the kde website ... where can i find how to get a svn version of the source? | 09:12 |
| Tm_T | Slartibartfast: techbase.kde.org is the site to look at | 09:12 |
| Slartibartfast | OK OK ... thnx | 09:12 |
| bazhang | will the backports meld safely into the jaunty upgrade in a couple of months time? | 09:16 |
| bazhang | ie for using kde4.2 | 09:16 |
| Tm_T | bazhang: that's the plan | 09:16 |
| bazhang | Tm_T, thanks | 09:16 |
| Slartibartfast | When i use OpenSuse with KDE 4.2 and i start the desktop, there is a nice fade in effect from the splash screen towards the actual desktop ... Can i also get that effect in Kubuntu with kde 4.2? | 09:17 |
| bazhang | I get that in 4.1 Slartibartfast (at least it resembles what you say) | 09:18 |
| Slartibartfast | bazhang: But is it some setting ? ..... seems hard to find | 09:19 |
| thedark | hello everyone when I tried to update through adept I get a strange error, could anyone help me out?: http://paste.ubuntu.com/124183/ | 09:19 |
| Slartibartfast | bazhang: well seems i have that option checked in "desktop System Settings" | 09:20 |

| liquid_rainium | but root priviledges might not be enabled | 09:25 |
| bazhang | liquid_rainium, how did you enable root | 09:26 |
| liquid_rainium | WITHOUT THE TERMINAL, ill learn to do that later | 09:26 |

| bazhang | yaa_, do you have an ubuntu/kubuntu support question? | 09:30 |
| yaa_ | yes but know not how to say | 09:31 |

| bazhang | yaa_, try your best | 09:31 |
| yaa_ | drivers/ nvidia on 9600 gt | 09:31 |

| bazhang | yaa_, you speak russian? | 09:31 |
| yaa_ | a little | 09:32 |

| liquid_rainium | ok, bazhang, i go to system settings/login manager and none of the buttons in the window are active, how do i gain access to edit those settings? | 09:32 |
| yaa_ | 8.10 | 09:32 |
| thedark | Slartibartfast: I tried what you said, I get the same error | 09:33 |
| yaa_ | it works but i want proprietary drivers to work/ they do not | 09:33 |
| bazhang | yaa_, kmenu -->system-->hardware drivers | 09:33 |
| bazhang | yaa_, check that they are enabled and in use | 09:33 |
| bazhang | yaa_, if not then enable them and do a full restart | 09:33 |
| bazhang | yaa_, there should be a recommended choice there, pick that one | 09:34 |
| Slartibartfast | thedark hmmm ... let me see ... | 09:34 |
| yaa_ | they do not work/ stdout writes errors | 09:34 |
| bazhang | liquid_rainium, let me check; this is ibex | 09:34 |
| yaa_ | when i install them the screen splits | 09:34 |
| liquid_rainium | k, thanks | 09:34 |
| bazhang | yaa_, installed from where | 09:34 |
| yaa_ | from repository and from nidia site | 09:35 |
| bazhang | yaa_, both?? | 09:35 |
| yaa_ | nvidia | 09:35 |
| bazhang | that is a problem | 09:35 |
| bazhang | liquid_rainium, clicking advanced tab then login manager should bring a sudo password prompt; are you not getting that | 09:36 |
| yaa_ | bazhang yes both | 09:36 |
| liquid_rainium | no im not | 09:36 |
| bazhang | yaa_, delete and reinstall only from repos | 09:36 |
| bazhang | liquid_rainium, then that is why | 09:37 |
| yaa_ | i did that | 09:37 |
| yaa_ | many times | 09:37 |
| bazhang | yaa_, not successfully apparently | 09:37 |
| liquid_rainium | whats the problem then, why wont it prompt me? | 09:37 |
| Slartibartfast | thedark read this ... mayeb it will help you https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+question/58124 | 09:37 |

| yaa_ | apperently- do not know what is this | 09:38 |
| === patrick is now known as Guest15726 | ||
| bazhang | yaa_, use the uninstaller from the nvidia installer, and delete the other with package manager | 09:38 |
| yaa_ | http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1035873.html i tried this | 09:38 |
| liquid_rainium | well im the owner but i have not enabled root priviledges at any point.. | 09:38 |
| liquid_rainium | ..and am not sure how, im too used to running gnome | 09:39 |
| bazhang | liquid_rainium, well if you were just a normal user, you would get the prompt | 09:39 |
| bazhang | qed you are root | 09:39 |
| Slartibartfast | thedark: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update" seemed to have helped there | 09:39 |
| yaa_ | i did . i deleted all the packages containing nvidia/ then installed again | 09:39 |
| liquid_rainium | well even if i was recognized as root, shouldnt the buttons be active? | 09:39 |
| bazhang | yaa_, deleted manually? | 09:39 |
| bazhang | liquid_rainium, nope | 09:39 |
| bazhang | liquid_rainium, ubuntu/kubuntu is set up to use sudo, not root | 09:40 |
| yaa_ | yes manually | 09:40 |

| bazhang | yaa_, sounds bad | 09:41 |
| thedark | man this has been a frustrating couple of weeks with Kubuntu | 09:41 |
| bazhang | heh | 09:42 |
| thedark | everything seems to have a problem | 09:42 |
| thedark | I miss 8.04 :( | 09:42 |
| bazhang | the first two weeks are always this way | 09:42 |
| liquid_rainium | k ill just figure this out myself, i keep getting half-answers | 09:42 |
| yaa_ | bazhang(( i see | 09:42 |
| wildbat | how do i set adept-upgrade to automatic | 09:42 |
| bazhang | liquid ah he quit | 09:42 |
| thedark | I blame KDE 4, since it came into my computing life everything has gone downhill | 09:42 |
| bazhang | !info cron-apt | 09:43 |
| ubottu | cron-apt (source: cron-apt): automatic update of packages using apt-get. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.6 (intrepid), package size 24 kB, installed size 220 kB | 09:43 |
| thedark | when I first upgraded, I couldn't even login, I had to do a fresh new install. nobody in this chan could figure it out | 09:43 |
| bazhang | thedark, same here, so I used gnome until I figured to install kwin | 09:43 |
| thedark | now I still have a video skipping problem I can't solve, and firefox crashes relatively frequently | 09:43 |
| thedark | now I can't even upgrade | 09:44 |
| bazhang | thedark, sounds like, too many effects enabled, and too many ff iffy plugins | 09:44 |
| bazhang | thedark, upgrade? to the next release? | 09:44 |
| thedark | I have all desktop effects disabled | 09:44 |
| bazhang | no wonder | 09:44 |
| bazhang | you mean jaunty? | 09:45 |
| thedark | desktop was crashing all the time | 09:45 |
| thedark | 8.04.2 | 09:45 |
| thedark | lol | 09:45 |
| thedark | I mean KDE 4.2 | 09:45 |
| thedark | I have 8.10 | 09:45 |
| bazhang | wait you are still on hardy? | 09:45 |
| thedark | no Intrepid | 09:46 |
| bazhang | oh ok | 09:46 |
| thedark | though I wish I stuck with Hardy | 09:46 |
| thedark | it was so stable | 09:46 |
| bazhang | what about paste.ubuntu.com with sources.list | 09:46 |
| thedark | I am still waiting for this freaking thing to timeout | 09:46 |
| thedark | man if my first linux experience was like this, I would have given up | 09:46 |
| bazhang | kde4.2 is experimental and just out | 09:46 |
| thedark | luckily I started with Puppy Linux at Kubuntu was much more stable before this upgrade | 09:46 |
| thedark | at=and | 09:47 |
| bazhang | early adopters have to suffer | 09:47 |
| thedark | at the time, I just clicked the upgrade button in adept | 09:47 |
| thedark | having no idea what was in store | 09:47 |
| thedark | now, everything is a nightmare | 09:47 |
| yaa_ | anybody | 09:47 |
| bazhang | well if you wish I can check your sources.list or other stuff | 09:47 |
| thedark | probably not as bad as windows | 09:47 |
| thedark | but still not as great as it used to be | 09:48 |
| bazhang | yaa_, sounds like you broke package management | 09:48 |
| bazhang | yaa_, manually deleting things and getting those kinds of errors | 09:48 |
| thedark | how long does it take for this to timeout? | 09:48 |
| bazhang | you can ctrl c if you wish | 09:48 |
| yaa_ | u mean i gotto reinstall ? | 09:49 |
| bazhang | yaa_, try to create another user, or use the livecd to boot | 09:49 |
| bazhang | yaa_, dont randomly manually delete things if you dont know what you are doing | 09:49 |
| ZmAY | how can i remotley run gui applications, using ssh, i need to configure display somehow, any help? | 09:49 |
| thedark | gahhhhhhhhhhh it always hangs at 96% | 09:49 |
| bazhang | thedark, paste.ubuntu.com with sources.list | 09:50 |
| * thedark nods | 09:50 | |
| thedark | thank you for hanging with me | 09:50 |
| bazhang | cat /etc/apt/sources.list -->paste.ubuntu.com | 09:50 |
| yaa_ | i can load kde/ its ok but using xorg drivers/ i need proprietary | 09:50 |
| DaddyLonglegs | Does anybody happen to know why my Mozilla Firefox cannot start Java applets? I'm sure that I've installed proper version of Java on my machine. | 09:50 |
| thedark | I know I am whining, I am just very frustrated | 09:50 |
| bazhang | thedark, this is not whining | 09:50 |
| bazhang | hang around if you want that :) | 09:51 |
| thedark | well it seems that way, I have never had this many problems with Kubuntu | 09:51 |
| thedark | it almost tempts me to go to another distro, but who knows what headaches that could bring | 09:51 |
| bazhang | experimental kde4.2 at that | 09:51 |
| thedark | I still have 4.1 | 09:51 |
| thedark | I was going to upgrade to 4.2, didn't realize it it was still experimental | 09:52 |
| bazhang | thought you said 4.2 up thread | 09:52 |
| yaa_ | ohh!! | 09:52 |
| bazhang | yaa_, ?? | 09:52 |
| thedark | nah I wanted to upgrade to 4.2 | 09:52 |
| yaa_ | i can load kde/ its ok but using xorg drivers/ i need proprietary | 09:52 |
| thedark | thinking it would maybe improve things :-P | 09:52 |
| bazhang | yaa_, yes you said | 09:52 |
| thedark | where is sources.list located | 09:53 |
| bazhang | yaa_, and I suggested you create a new user or try booting the live cd | 09:53 |
| yaa_ | ok/ and then/ after makin new user? | 09:53 |
| bazhang | yaa_, are you not paying attention? you likely damaged package management system | 09:53 |
| yaa_ | what i have to do now | 09:54 |
| bazhang | thedark, cat /etc/apt/sources.list paste.ubuntu.com with it | 09:54 |
| thedark | okay, just asking cause I saw two of them | 09:54 |
| bazhang | yaa_, you did it already? and have logged in at that new user? | 09:54 |
| yaa_ | yes | 09:55 |
| bazhang | yaa_, without logging off of irc? | 09:55 |
| yaa_ | im on another comp | 09:55 |
| bazhang | oho | 09:56 |
| thedark | here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/124200/ | 09:56 |
| bazhang | gutsy-backports | 09:56 |
| bazhang | line 41 need to add # in front | 09:57 |
| bazhang | should be kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list then add #, save then sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade | 09:58 |
| bazhang | I am guessing the backports are what is causing the immediate issue | 09:58 |
| yaa_ | (( | 09:59 |
| bazhang | less stable , crashiness may be an issue as well (related to backports) | 09:59 |
| bazhang | thedark, ^^ | 09:59 |
| * thedark nods | 10:00 | |
| thedark | oh snap, it worked | 10:01 |

| thedark | something goes right! :) | 10:01 |
| thedark | okay, here is my other major problem: videos skip every 10 seconds or so in every program, no matter the format. Even flash videos... audio is fine, but video "hiccups" slightly | 10:03 |
| thedark | this includes VLC, Mplayer, Youtube, Dragon Player, Kaffeine etc. | 10:03 |
| anouar | hi every body, im asking for ur help please | 10:03 |
| thedark | I went throught the multimedia tutorial at the ubuntu forum | 10:04 |
| thedark | so yes I have all the codecs installed | 10:04 |
| bazhang | anouar, need a question | 10:05 |
| thedark | another person suggested I have to reconfigure my graphics card and gave me a link to a site I bookmarked, but it just confuses me | 10:05 |
| anouar | ok | 10:05 |
| anouar | here is my probleme | 10:05 |
| bazhang | thedark, its fixed, the first problem? | 10:05 |
| bazhang | thedark, this was the geforce 6100? | 10:05 |
| anouar | i have an ATI graphic card, im trying compiz, all works fine, but 3D desktop not yet | 10:06 |
| anouar | i don't know what to do | 10:06 |
| thedark | yeah | 10:06 |
| thedark | your suggestion fixed the upgrade problem | 10:06 |
| bazhang | anouar, what card, what driver, how installed (and what version of kubuntu) | 10:06 |
| bazhang | thedark, and the graphics drivers are from repo or nvidia site | 10:07 |
| anouar | ubuntu 8.10 | 10:07 |
| bazhang | anouar, ubuntu or kubuntu | 10:07 |
| anouar | i have the fglrx driver | 10:07 |
| anouar | ubuntu | 10:07 |
| bazhang | thought the fglrx was problematic | 10:07 |
| dr_Willis | It can be :) | 10:07 |
| thedark | but how do I know if I have my card configured properly? | 10:07 |
| anouar | i tried the navy | 10:08 |
| bazhang | heh | 10:08 |
| anouar | but still not working | 10:08 |
| dr_Willis | it has been.. i imagine it always will be.. depending on the card/setup :) | 10:08 |
| bazhang | apparently as he is asking for help with it | 10:08 |
| bazhang | anouar, the navy? | 10:08 |
| anouar | yes i found it in th ubuntu forum, many person suggest it | 10:09 |
| bazhang | thedark, do you see a recommended driver under hardware drivers? | 10:09 |
| bazhang | anouar, envy? | 10:09 |
| anouar | it install the appropriate driver for the ATI or NVIDIA graphic card | 10:09 |
| anouar | yes envy | 10:09 |
| bazhang | anouar, or envyng | 10:09 |
| anouar | no it's envy im sure | 10:09 |
| thedark | hardware drivers doesn't tell my anything | 10:10 |
| bazhang | anouar, only envy, not envyng-gtk? 100% sure on that? | 10:10 |
| thedark | just that "No propietary drivers are in use on this sytem" | 10:10 |
| anouar | yes only envy | 10:10 |
| bazhang | anouar, uh oh | 10:10 |
| anouar | bazhang thank's for ur attention | 10:11 |
| anouar | i think this server is for kubuntu | 10:11 |
| bazhang | thedark, I am trying to remember if the 173, 177, or 180 works best with that card | 10:11 |
| bazhang | anouar, a server? | 10:11 |
| bazhang | oh he meant channel | 10:12 |
| bazhang | thedark, you have adept, or synaptic installed? | 10:12 |
| thedark | both, yes | 10:13 |
| bazhang | thedark, I dont have that card, so may be not the best source of info here | 10:13 |
| bazhang | thedark, but you need to install one of the available cards from the package manager | 10:13 |
| bazhang | thedark, in my case it was the 177, but I have the 7300 card | 10:14 |
| thedark | how do I figure out which one? | 10:15 |
| bazhang | thedark, honestly the geniuses at this are in #compiz-fusion , it is a slower/smaller channel but they give the definitive answers | 10:16 |
| bazhang | thedark, otherwise you can, as I did, try out more than one | 10:17 |
| * thedark nods | 10:17 | |
| thedark | let me ask, do you know anything about simple anonymous websurfing | 10:17 |
| thedark | or what chan to ask about it in | 10:17 |
| thedark | there is also that site access thing I mentioned earlier | 10:17 |
| thedark | it might seem petty but I am trying to learn Korean and the site I am trying to access is a great resource for subtitled videos | 10:18 |
| bazhang | give me the link | 10:18 |
| thedark | are you in the US? | 10:19 |
| thedark | or Canada | 10:19 |
| thedark | if so, it will work for you | 10:19 |

| thedark | here, I used to be able to access this video with hidemyass.com, but now it says "Not available in your region" | 10:20 |
| === kuba is now known as Guest16735 | ||
| bazhang | thedark, same issue here it seems | 10:22 |
| thedark | you can't watch it? | 10:22 |
| thedark | what country are you in? | 10:22 |
| bazhang | there may be some hulu type sites though for that | 10:23 |
| thedark | I have been looking for this show, that was the only source I could fine | 10:23 |
| thedark | find | 10:23 |
| thedark | so the video didn't work for you? | 10:26 |
| thedark | what region are you in? | 10:26 |
| thedark | I am really curious | 10:26 |
| bazhang | asia region | 10:28 |
| thedark | oh wow | 10:31 |
| thedark | cool :( | 10:31 |
| thedark | :) | 10:31 |
| bazhang | let me do a search | 10:32 |
| * thedark nods | 10:33 | |
| bazhang | only see trailers and such so far, thedark ; best bet is to find korean name and search that way | 10:37 |
| thedark | doubt I'll get English subs that way though :) | 10:38 |
| thedark | do you mind if I ask what country you are in? | 10:38 |
| thedark | I am in South Korea | 10:38 |
| bazhang | TW | 10:39 |
| bazhang | wait, if you are there, you can watch on tv | 10:39 |
| thedark | no subtitles lol | 10:40 |
| thedark | and I don't think it is still airing anyway | 10:40 |
| thedark | best bet would be to find a proxy tool/site that works | 10:41 |
| bazhang | or just learn korean and dispense all together with subs :) | 10:42 |
| thedark | being in Taiwan, I would have guessed you to be an expert :-P | 10:42 |
| thedark | well, I am working on it | 10:42 |
| bazhang | in Mandarin only :) | 10:42 |
| thedark | lol I mean in proxies and such | 10:44 |
| thedark | do you really know Mandarin? | 10:46 |

| Slartibartfast | edit sources | 11:55 |

| bazhang | oof | 11:56 |
| michal__ | its installing now :) | 11:56 |
| michal__ | and one other thing...i have some sites that cannot be opened... | 11:57 |
| Slartibartfast | yeah .. thats also possible :-P | 11:57 |
| michal__ | it can be a matter of java or something? | 11:57 |
| Slartibartfast | what sites ? ..... get an error? | 11:57 |
| giarca | an example? | 11:57 |
| michal__ | for example its my homebanking site | 11:58 |
| michal__ | im loggin and get the info that the site isnt fully loaded... | 11:58 |
| Slartibartfast | maybe thats Internet Explorer only ...... some sites are like that .... thank MS for that | 11:58 |
| michal__ | when i was using Win with Firefox i was login at it without any probs | 11:59 |
| Slartibartfast | OK | 11:59 |
| Slartibartfast | maybe the site indeed uses java for some athentication | 12:00 |
| Slartibartfast | *authentication | 12:00 |
| michal__ | im working at that bank, whole service is based on Java | 12:00 |
| bazhang | user-agent-switcher firefox plugin sometimes works | 12:00 |
| Slartibartfast | then you should check if java is installed | 12:01 |
| bazhang | id as ie8/vista while in firefox | 12:01 |
| Slartibartfast | michal__: apt-cache search lets you see a lot of java related packages ..... | 12:02 |
| Slartibartfast | apt-cache search java | 12:02 |
| Slartibartfast | like sun-java6-plugin | 12:02 |

| cuznt | i did that action it told me i had the latest player | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: uninstall the swfplayer and stuff like that, gnash too, if you have multiple flash stuffs they conflict and you get nothing | 14:39 |
| cuznt | ok i will try thanks | 14:39 |
| wyginwys | hi I have a question | 14:39 |
| wyginwys | I have Kubuntu 8.10 with KDE4.2 | 14:39 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: any idea?? | 14:39 |
| BluesKaj | aha cuznt, there's anew version of flashplugin-nonfree, that's been fixed to run with latest FF ..and i agree with ActionParsnip1...flashplayers do nothing for you except create probs | 14:40 |
| === john is now known as Guest93912 | ||
| wyginwys | I have been using Kubuntu since 2+ years and do necessary upgrades when it is available on repos | 14:40 |
| BluesKaj | flashplugis are a diff strory | 14:40 |
| cuznt | i did not know that. | 14:40 |
| wyginwys | after upgrading from KDE3 to KDE4 I faced with problems | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: its not something ive ever looked into, i just let cool n quiet do its thing. hence why i buy amd | 14:41 |
| wyginwys | I hoped KDE 4.2 will solve my problems but it didnt | 14:41 |
| BluesKaj | cuznt, have you been updating your sources ? | 14:41 |
| shadeslayer | hmm | 14:41 |
| wyginwys | Now X server crashes all the time | 14:41 |
| shadeslayer | i have intel | 14:41 |
| cuznt | updating as in how | 14:41 |
| wyginwys | I mean | 14:41 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: it was working fine for 2 weeks | 14:41 |
| shadeslayer | ^^ | 14:41 |
| wyginwys | I face 4-5 crashes daily | 14:42 |
| shadeslayer | :O | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: what has changed since? new kernel maybe? | 14:42 |
| shadeslayer | nope | 14:42 |
| shadeslayer | i have no idea | 14:42 |
| wyginwys | I installed other desktop envs like xubuntu and gnome | 14:42 |
| === root is now known as Guest93063 | ||
| wyginwys | but my problem still goes on | 14:42 |
| shadeslayer | me too | 14:42 |
| shadeslayer | >< | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip1 | wyginwys: its not for everyone, mine crashed too. kwin has never liked me. I use fluxbox | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip1 | kde yes, kwin no thank you | 14:43 |
| wyginwys | should i use fluxbox? | 14:43 |
| ActionParsnip1 | wyginwys: its worth a try | 14:43 |
| wyginwys | neither gnome nor xubuntu helped me | 14:43 |
| ActionParsnip1 | wyginwys: you can always remove it if you dislike | 14:43 |
| wyginwys | I know | 14:44 |
| bazhang | or lxde | 14:44 |
| wyginwys | ActionParsnip1: did you try gnome or xubuntu and faced the similar problems? | 14:45 |
| ActionParsnip1 | wyginwys: ive always use kde through all my linux systems | 14:46 |
| ActionParsnip1 | blame mandrake for that :) | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | hehe | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | i m starting Jaunty now | 14:46 |
| ActionParsnip1 | i havent tried gnome but i tried xfce and it was ok | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | XFCE is good | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | GNOME is in between KDE and XFCE | 14:47 |
| wyginwys | xfce is crashing too on my machine | 14:47 |
| shadeslayer | :O | 14:47 |
| shadeslayer | the alpha cd is bad i think | 14:47 |
| shadeslayer | brb | 14:47 |
| wyginwys | IMO this must be a problem with X server | 14:47 |
| ActionParsnip1 | i tried jaunty, and it kinda sucked so i jumped back to intrepid | 14:47 |

| thedark | if so, how can I got back? | 15:15 |
| shadeslayer | !apt | 15:15 |
| ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) | 15:15 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: ? | 15:16 |
| gernot | hello, since kde4.2 i have to reload my xmodmap everytime after waking up my suspended laptop. does somebody know what changed there (since 4.1 and before) and if there is a fix? | 15:16 |
| === mtux_ is now known as mtux | ||
| === Arnoud is now known as StrangeFreedom | ||
| ActionParsnip1 | gernot: maybe if you put them in /etc/X11/Xmodmap it will be ran when x starts | 15:22 |
| ActionParsnip1 | gernot: standby /hibernate is hard to get nice | 15:23 |
| WaltzingAlong | thedark: not through standard packages | 15:24 |
| WaltzingAlong | thedark: but yes you could install on your computer whatever you wanted | 15:25 |
| thedark | how? | 15:26 |
| thedark | ?? | 15:26 |
| WaltzingAlong | thedark: probably more work than you want and it would not be standard "kubuntu 8.10"; grab the src, install from there | 15:28 |
| thedark | ugh you are right | 15:28 |
| thedark | forget it | 15:28 |
| thedark | time to try a new distro | 15:28 |
| WaltzingAlong | otherwise, if you want kde3 then you do not want kubuntu 8.10 | 15:28 |
| thedark | yeah I screwed up | 15:28 |
| chairman | hey guys what's been going on | 15:28 |
| WaltzingAlong | thedark: other distro like kubuntu 8.04 ? :D | 15:28 |
| thedark | but I am a casual user, if there is an update button I click it | 15:28 |
| thedark | yeah can I downgrade? | 15:29 |
| thedark | is that possible? | 15:29 |
| chairman | i want to know how to make the ring spin on ring switcher | 15:29 |
| thedark | 8.04 was great | 15:29 |
| thedark | firefox wasn't crashing | 15:29 |
| thedark | videos didn't skip | 15:29 |
| thedark | then this new version came and everything went to hell | 15:29 |
| thedark | from 7.10, when I started with Kubuntu, things just got better | 15:30 |
| shadeslayer | please can i curse once | 15:30 |
| WaltzingAlong | thedark: as far as i know there is not a "downgrade" option but it could be forced. it would be better to install fresh. (luckily you partitioned to make that really easy, /home on its own partition so / could be formatted) | 15:30 |
| WaltzingAlong | thedark: how about turning off the "desktop effects"? | 15:30 |
| thedark | I did already | 15:30 |
| shadeslayer | generic curse | 15:31 |
| shadeslayer | :P | 15:31 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: its alive,its alive | 15:31 |
| shadeslayer | i mean it works works | 15:31 |
| shadeslayer | OMG | 15:31 |
| shadeslayer | everything works | 15:31 |
| shadeslayer | >< | 15:31 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: what did you have to do? | 15:32 |
| * shadeslayer is happy with *buntu for the first time | 15:32 | |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: powernowd i think | 15:32 |
| shadeslayer | >< | 15:32 |
| thedark | ugh it is just such a hassle backing up everything and then reinstalling Skype, Mnemosyne, the video players, flash, dvd support...ughhhhhhhhhhh | 15:32 |
| thedark | not to mention the install process itself | 15:32 |
| thedark | I was so happy with Kubuntu | 15:32 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: whats the command to kill Apt | 15:33 |
| thedark | I have been pure linux for close to a year now | 15:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | thedark: you should have a backup anyway | 15:33 |
| thedark | well, I use VMware | 15:33 |
| shadeslayer | :) | 15:33 |
| thedark | and not until | 15:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: ps -ef | grep apt | 15:33 |
| shadeslayer | i use vm ware for alphas and betas | 15:33 |
| thedark | now have I been so frustrated that I felt I really had to abandon a distro | 15:33 |
| shadeslayer | hmm | 15:33 |
| shadeslayer | doesnt work | 15:33 |
| bazhang | its not that bad | 15:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: why do you wanna kill apt? | 15:33 |
| shadeslayer | i wanted to install a deb file | 15:34 |
| thedark | I left puppy for kubuntu because it was limited, not because it was crashing or videos weren't playing right | 15:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | thedark: not all distros are for everyone | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | and it says close other package managers | 15:34 |
| thedark | yeah but I loved Kubuntu! | 15:34 |
| WaltzingAlong | hence multiple distros | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | :) | 15:34 |
| bazhang | other distro support = crickets | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | lol | 15:34 |
| thedark | its like being married for years and then your wife becomes a scientologist | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | ubuntu has good support | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | :) | 15:34 |
| thedark | ok I know that | 15:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | gentoo has good support too :) | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | but kubuntu is faster | 15:34 |
| thedark | I chose Ubuntu because I need the help, I don't know about the computers | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | in support | 15:34 |
| thedark | and Kubuntu is easy to use | 15:35 |
| shadeslayer | yeah,similar to windows | 15:35 |
| thedark | that is why I am upset over the prospect of changing | 15:35 |
| thedark | I was so happy with 8.04 | 15:35 |
| bazhang | the sooner you start the sooner it will happen | 15:35 |
| draik_ | I've been using Kubuntu as of June 1, 2006 | 15:35 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: any idea? i think it was a long command ;) | 15:35 |
| draik_ | I've had my issues, but nothing too major | 15:35 |
| bazhang | then dont upgrade when it first comes out | 15:35 |
| thedark | then I upgraded and had to do a clean install after it broke my system (thanks), then things were crashing so I had to turn off all effects etc., and the firefox/video problems still persist now | 15:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: fluxbuntu is faster still :) | 15:36 |
| thedark | it is just a pain | 15:36 |
| wathek | I need to get qt 4.5 rc1 which is in the jaunty repos is it possible to add the jaunty repos to my kubuntu intrepid to update qt ? | 15:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: why do you want to kill apt? | 15:36 |

| shadeslayer | wanna install a deb file,deb file says another manager working | 15:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: to install a deb: sudo dpkg -i <debfile> | 15:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: make sure yuo have no package apps open, including apt which you can kill by pid using the command i gave you | 15:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: if that fails use: | 15:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !fixapt | 15:37 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 15:37 |
| shadeslayer | yeah thats the one | 15:37 |
| shadeslayer | >< | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: apt isnt running, it just forgot to unlock the packages | 15:38 |
| thedark | if I have video problems in Kubuntu 8.10, will the same be true in Xubuntu or Ubuntu(gnome)? | 15:38 |
| shadeslayer | :P | 15:38 |
| shadeslayer | yayy | 15:38 |
| bazhang | thedark, try them out and see | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | thedark: possibly, each DE handles stuff differently but the drivers willl be identical | 15:38 |

| draik_ | kNetworkManager? | 16:15 |
| emad | i don,t know | 16:15 |
| cuznt | did yours stop working/ | 16:15 |
| cuznt | mine did on my other hard drive | 16:15 |
| sorset | hi , can i use middle clcik of mouse for page up and down like winodes?paste instead ... | 16:16 |
| avminx | . | 16:17 |
| draik_ | How do I go about uninstalling the current network manager being mauled to death by nepomuk? | 16:17 |
| cuznt | after uninstalling the swf gnash etc garbage... i rebooted my pc. now my etho will not connect | 16:18 |
| cuznt | i am on my other harddrive now | 16:18 |
| avminx | can I speak here? | 16:19 |
| draik_ | avminx: Yes | 16:19 |
| cuznt | !ask | 16:19 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 16:19 |
| avminx | hehe | 16:19 |
| avminx | ok | 16:19 |
| draik_ | Most likely, but not really ;) | 16:20 |
| cuznt | why is nepomuk mauling it | 16:20 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: ifconfig eth0 do you have an ip address? | 16:20 |
| avminx | bye ;-) | 16:20 |
| draik_ | cuznt: dmesg | tail is "nepomukservices[5982]: segfault at 4 ip b7da87e2 sp bfcaf2a0 error 4 in libQtCore.so.4.4.3[b7d55000+225000]" | 16:20 |
| cuznt | i do not have to enter it manually | 16:20 |

| cuznt | after a reboot draik? | 16:21 |
| draik_ | ppdev0: registered pardevice | 16:21 |
| draik_ | ppdev0: unregistered pardevice | 16:21 |
| draik_ | That's listed 3 times and then... | 16:21 |
| cuznt | actionparsnip1 i actually made a new connection and deleted my old one. | 16:22 |
| cuznt | that worked once but now... | 16:22 |
| draik_ | NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00023bb3 | 16:22 |
| draik_ | cuznt: That's what I got from dmesg | tail after I rebooted my system cuz it froze. | 16:23 |
| cuznt | the one i am on now has no manually entered info either | 16:23 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: fine, as long as it flys. I dont use nm i think its garbage | 16:23 |
| draik_ | I have an IP listed in ifconfig, but that doesn't mean anything. | 16:24 |
| cuznt | ok is there a way to use something else and install it from disk actionparsnip1 ? | 16:24 |
| cuznt | i did use something else before when i was 3.5 | 16:24 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: manually edit /etc/network/interfaces | 16:24 |
| cuznt | right on draik i was trying to see if maybe our probs were related | 16:25 |
| draik_ | sudo ifconfig eth0 down && sudo ifconfig eth0 up doesn't do anything. I don't get an IP | 16:25 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: its: sudo ifdown etho && sudo ifup eth0 | 16:26 |
| ActionParsnip1 | you get the idea | 16:27 |
| ActionParsnip1 | my typing sucks today | 16:27 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: sudo ifdown eth0 = ifdown: interface eth0 not configured | 16:28 |
| cuznt | ok i have pulled /etc/network/interfaces | # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 | 16:28 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: sudo ifup eth0 = Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0. | 16:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: do you see the device in: ifconfig | 16:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: try adding an entry for it in your /etc/network/interfaces | 16:30 |
| emad | hello | 16:30 |
| emad | how are you | 16:30 |
| cuznt | both my /etc/network/interfaces are identical | 16:31 |
| draik_ | Yes | 16:31 |
| blackflag | !akonadi | 16:31 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about akonadi | 16:31 |
| emad | draik | 16:31 |
| emad | are you ok | 16:32 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: Just add 'eth0' to the list? | 16:32 |
| draik_ | Nothing else after that? | 16:32 |
| emad | ok | 16:32 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: something like: | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | auto eth0 | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | iface eth0 inet dhcp | 16:34 |
| draik_ | Got it | 16:34 |
| emad | i like what | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: you will need to run: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 16:34 |
| draik_ | Leave iface lo alone, right? | 16:34 |
| cuznt | auto eth0 #iface eth0 inet dhcp | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: yes, leave that | 16:35 |
| cuznt | is mine action do i need to delete the # ? | 16:35 |
| draik_ | cuznt: Why would I comment out that line? | 16:35 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: the # makes it a comment | 16:35 |
| draik_ | cuznt: Remove the hash | 16:35 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: if you remove it, it will be read | 16:35 |
| cuznt | so leave it in there? | 16:35 |
| cuznt | or remove it.. that is what mine reads on both /etc/network/interfaces | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: remove the # | 16:36 |
| draik_ | Sorry for the 3-line flood.. cuznt, this is what you want to have... | 16:36 |
| cuznt | ty | 16:36 |
| draik_ | auto eth0 | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: pastebin the file if you wish | 16:36 |
| draik_ | iface lo inet loopback | 16:36 |
| cuznt | okey dokey | 16:37 |
| draik_ | iface eth0 inet dhcp | 16:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: pastebin the file if you wish | 16:37 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: I did as you instructed and I still don't have 'net access. No IP | 16:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: did you restart networking? | 16:37 |
| draik_ | Yup | 16:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: ok, do you see eth0 in ifconfig? | 16:38 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: you may want to check the output of: sudo lshw -C network | 16:38 |
| cuznt | in old kde there was sudo kate how can i edit my /etc/network/interfaces as root? | 16:39 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: kdesudo kate /etc/network/interfaces | 16:39 |
| ActionParsnip1 | cuznt: sudo kate is incorrect | 16:39 |
| cuznt | ty | 16:39 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: What am I looking for in the output? | 16:39 |
| draik_ | eth0 seems fine | 16:40 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: does it have an ip address | 16:40 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: Nope | 16:40 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: ok is the cable connected ok and do you have flashing lights on the interface? | 16:41 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: It's a light show like Vegas | 16:41 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: I'm going to restart the computer and see if maybe that takes better effect on the situation. | 16:43 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: maybe | 16:44 |
| draik_ | BRB... breakfast has just been set on the table. Be back in a few minutes. | 16:44 |
| tuxi | sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart should have been sufficient | 16:44 |

| ubottu | shadeslayer, please see my private message | 17:05 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: The 'net was dropped much sooner this time around. I didn't even get the first package. | 17:05 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: read dmesg to see whats happening as well as other ubuntu logs | 17:06 |
| draik_ | ppdev0: registered pardevice | 17:06 |
| draik_ | ppdev0: unregistered pardevice | 17:06 |

| shadeslayer | how do i update my kernel?? | 17:07 |
| bazhang | shadeslayer, why are you crossposting? the same helpers are in both channels | 17:08 |
| bazhang | !crosspost | 17:08 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 17:08 |
| shadeslayer | :) | 17:08 |
| === Riesh is now known as Slartibartfast | ||
| shadeslayer | well i couldnt get a answer as per my requirements | 17:08 |

| shadeslayer | ok | 17:09 |
| shadeslayer | so no other option | 17:09 |
| draik_ | An online search kept pointing to some form of scanner so I disconnected my 2 printers, one of which has scanning properties. | 17:10 |
| draik_ | I think that did it | 17:10 |
| draik_ | I think it didn't like one of my printers being on the network | 17:10 |
| draik_ | Odd, but whatever. I HAVE INTERNET ON MY DESKTOP! | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: sweet | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip1 | maybe it takes time to come up | 17:11 |
| draik_ | I can do without that printer on the network. I have it sync'd via USB anyway. It was just for the others, which honestly don't use it | 17:12 |
| draik_ | Now, once the updates are done, I hope that I can stop my computer from freezing. | 17:12 |
| shadeslayer | bazhang: well how do i set UUID?? | 17:12 |
| bazhang | !blkid | 17:13 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 17:13 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: Thanks a bunch for your eth0 assistance. Greatly appreciated. | 17:13 |

| Topsu | video player | 17:16 |
| bazhang | Topsu, see the list above? | 17:16 |
| Topsu | yes | 17:16 |
| bazhang | Topsu, there are several listed there | 17:16 |
| Topsu | but i want to create a video player | 17:17 |
| bazhang | Topsu, code one or compile one and why | 17:17 |
| Topsu | just for fun | 17:17 |
| bazhang | !compile | 17:18 |
| ubottu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 17:18 |
| whabo | topsu do you know programming languages? | 17:18 |
| bazhang | !b-e | 17:18 |
| draik_ | If all goes well, I'm going to play me a round of golf. I haven't played in a while due to weather, but today seems like a good time (if all goes well). | 17:18 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: np man, its fun troubleshooting stuff | 17:18 |
| Topsu | c++ , html. java-script | 17:18 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: also build my own knowledge | 17:18 |
| bazhang | Topsu, install build-essential | 17:18 |
| Topsu | ok | 17:18 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: I agree. I just wish I knew the commands like you so that I can better begin looking into issues. | 17:19 |
| === administrateur is now known as administrateur__ | ||
| Topsu | sudo apt-get install build-essential?? | 17:19 |
| draik_ | Topsu: Yes | 17:19 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Topsu: i'd contact other video player teams for someadvice | 17:19 |
| draik_ | slowly but surely, I'll get things down and live happily ever after with my Kubuntu OS. | 17:19 |

| shadeslayer | >< | 17:21 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: add 'quiet' to your boot options | 17:21 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !bootsplash | 17:21 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about bootsplash | 17:21 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !usplash | 17:21 |
| ubottu | To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 17:21 |
| shadeslayer | its ro quiet splash | 17:21 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !splash | 17:21 |
| ubottu | To change your KDE splash screen go to KMenu -> System Settings -> Splash Screen | 17:21 |
| shadeslayer | not the KDE splash,the usplash thing | 17:22 |
| ActionParsnip1 | then the first link is for you | 17:22 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: its already ro quiet splash there | 17:22 |
| shadeslayer | ok | 17:22 |

| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: Would you know of a site that has all of the commands for troubleshooting and running apps via CLI? | 17:23 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: i'd just look at what you wanna do specifically, rather than "What can I do?" think "how can i do <something>?" | 17:24 |
| dromer | !radeon | 17:24 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 17:24 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: but you can do anything in cli that you can do in gui (except flash in websites) | 17:24 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: so?? | 17:24 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: Think google will give a good search result for "how can I do everything?" | 17:24 |
| ActionParsnip1 | id be more specific | 17:25 |
| shadeslayer | ActionParsnip1: is the scond line perfect?? | 17:25 |

| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: anything you can do on your system, web browse, burn cds encode / decode audio, watch video | 17:26 |
| shadeslayer | draik_: yeah | 17:26 |
| ActionParsnip1 | shadeslayer: sure, that should give you the image at boot | 17:27 |

| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: if it freezes run dmesg | tail | 17:28 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: are you using stock cooling or do you have something decent? | 17:28 |
| draik_ | Stock | 17:28 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ok then id install some app to watch cpu temp, see if its heat | 17:29 |
| draik_ | As a matter of fact, I've even reapplied some heatsink compound yesterday in case the CPU is overheating. | 17:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | stock cooling is only just good enough usually | 17:29 |
| draik_ | True | 17:29 |
| draik_ | I'm going to Best Buy today to buy some stuff, I'll see what they have to cool down my CPU, just in case. | 17:29 |
| archangel2387 | Hi everybody i need help with my wifi card. i tried several tutorials on the ubuntu wiki but it doesnt work | 17:29 |
| draik_ | Doubt they'll have much, but I have to go there for something anyway. | 17:29 |
| draik_ | I'm going to use VT1 right now. I hope that works out better than the GUI | 17:30 |
| archangel2387 | when i put iwconfig i cant see my atheros card | 17:30 |
| === lmlxiv__ is now known as lmlxiv | ||
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: if the temperature your cpu is hitting is acceptable it should be ok | 17:30 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: check your ram is healthy and run an fsck on your drive while you sleep | 17:31 |
| archangel2387 | i check the driver and it seem to be activate and working | 17:31 |
| rainer | hi all | 17:31 |
| draik_ | dmesg doesn't tell me anything right now about the freeze. Seems like it's all OK. (odd) | 17:31 |
| rainer | i have a little question | 17:31 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !hi | rainer | 17:31 |
| ubottu | rainer: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 17:31 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ask away rainer | 17:31 |
| rainer | how to make a script in boot option on kde? | 17:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | rainer: you can add the script (or symlink) in ~/.kde/Autostart | 17:33 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !autorun | 17:33 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about autorun | 17:33 |
| rainer | this is my shell command " sudo hdparm -B127 /dev/sdb" | 17:33 |

| ubuntu_ | hi | 20:00 |
| brzi | hello can i have a question related to the kubuntu blurry fonts, is there someone that understands the font configuration | 20:01 |
| draik_ | I don't know what happened, but my System Settings sucks now. I don't have the option to choose if NumLock is ON or OFF at login and such. I also can't choose my KDM options. | 20:01 |
| brzi | blurry fonts on KDE 4.1, on GNOME it works fine?? | 20:01 |
| brzi | help | 20:01 |
| ubuntu_ | it s possible instal kubuntu via svn | 20:02 |
| ActionParsnip1 | brzi: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=448555 | 20:02 |
| ActionParsnip1 | brzi: http://www.nabble.com/kde4:-blurry-fonts-td15137265.html | 20:03 |
| brzi | thank you very mutch | 20:03 |
| draik_ | I've been managing to install apps by doing it one line at a time. | 20:07 |
| draik_ | Takes a while, but it's slowly getting the job done | 20:08 |
| === andre is now known as Guest46107 | ||
| draik_ | It also helps to use an alias [alias sagi='sudo apt-get install'] | 20:08 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: you can stagger installs | 20:10 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: e.g. | 20:10 |
| draik_ | How so? | 20:10 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: sudo apt-get install firefox thunderbird samba openssh-server pidgin wine | 20:10 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: then go for a shower :) | 20:10 |
| draik_ | That's what I'm doing now | 20:10 |
| draik_ | It started off with [sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade] and then I put the results into a list. | 20:11 |
| ActionParsnip1 | well thats not one at a time is it? | 20:11 |
| drostie | How would I set up custom key mappings -- e.g. the "windows" key to the K menu, or the buttons on my laptop's bezel plate to shell scripts? | 20:11 |
| draik_ | That list is now being processed one line at a time until I either (A) lose Internet or (B) system freezes. | 20:11 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: then thats all in one shot | 20:12 |
| drostie | draik_: the idea is that you don't need to do it one line at a time. The command [sudo apt-get install firefox thunderbird] will install both firefox and thunderbird simultaneously. | 20:13 |
| marcel | hola | 20:13 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip1: Right, but it's one line of apps at a time (about 5-8 apps) and then do the next line, if condition A or B from above are not met. | 20:14 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: could script it ;) | 20:14 |
| drostie | ^_^ | 20:14 |
| draik_ | How so? | 20:14 |
| draik_ | And how would I know where it died? | 20:14 |
| drostie | draik_: shell scripting plus the echo command? | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: just have each install line run, if you want you can have it output to a file | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip1 | draik_: so you can see where it got to | 20:15 |
| draik_ | Good point | 20:16 |
| ActionParsnip1 | computer is there to make your life easier dude | 20:17 |
| ActionParsnip1 | exploit it, it wont mind | 20:17 |
| drostie | So, um. Either of you know how to do custom keybindings? | 20:18 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !shortcut | 20:18 |
| ubottu | keyboard shortcuts can be set in K -> System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse. Try also "Input Actions" in KControl. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KDEMultimediaKeys - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 20:18 |
| draik_ | drostie: Such as keyboard shortcuts to apps? | 20:18 |
| drostie | :-( the windows key is called "meta" and cannot be bound. | 20:21 |

| alarm | hello there. on previews kubuntu releases with kde3.5.x there was an option for external hdd devices to be mounted with read only. now (on kubuntu 8.10 kde 4.2) , when i plug in my external hdd , and open it , it is automounted with read/write access. how can i change that to mount it with read only option ? | 20:45 |

| drostie | alarm: I have discovered that sadly, the udev/hal daemons that help in plug-and-play type mounting do not respect /etc/fstab :-( | 20:54 |
| alarm | drostie, i know that | 20:54 |
| drostie | alarm: I didn't. That would have been the easy solution to your problems. ^_^ | 20:54 |
| alarm | thats why i said. on previous releases you could check/uncheck the option for read/write option in the automount options | 20:55 |
| alarm | not anymore on 8.10 with kde4.2 | 20:55 |
| drostie | alarm: well, you could always hack something together manually via http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html | 20:58 |
| alarm | let me check that out | 20:59 |
| alarm | there has to be something easier :) | 21:00 |

| Herazio | I've been here yesterday and I'm still having trouble with connecting via my Wireless Adapter (Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG). I came a bit further by typing dmesg and got an error by the driver saying: iwl3945: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill Switch | 21:26 |

| |drostie| | Sounds like there's a button on your laptop which toggles wireless on and off (an RF Kill Switch) that is currently in the off position. | 21:30 |
| Herazio | yeah ^^' that would be FN - F1 (sorry for the repeating question ofcourse). But that button does not work | 21:31 |
| |drostie| | No, not a keyboard button. Some other sort of button. Like, on my current Toshiba laptop, there's a little on/off switch on the narrow front-edge of the computer. On my now-dead Acer laptop, this button happened to also be the light that switched on and off during network traffic. | 21:34 |

| Surlent777 | can anyone offer me any suggestions on how to get Doom 3 working (no visuals, but the game is still running) in KDE 4, taking into account that it works perfectly in Fluxbox, GNOME, and Xfce? | 21:36 |
| |drostie| | hardware kill switches are relatively common; look around for one. | 21:36 |
| Herazio | will do ^^ | 21:36 |
| |drostie| | Surlent777: http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/doom/ ...? | 21:38 |

| bsm | Hi, I'm looking for something like sshfs without ssh :) the connection is secure ( cable ) so I don't need encryption, but it should be as easy to use as sshfs. | 21:54 |
| bsm | and it should not be nfs | 21:54 |
| drostie | if sshfs works, why not just encrypt it superfluously? It's not like you lose something drastic by encryption. | 21:57 |

| BRICKFARMR | shoul i upgrade to kde4.2 on intrepid? | 22:29 |
| HappySmileMan | Yes | 22:30 |
| HappySmileMan | It's far better | 22:30 |
| BRICKFARMR | 4.1>4.2? | 22:30 |
| Dillizar | anyone here ?? | 22:31 |
| BRICKFARMR | woops reverse that | 22:31 |
| HappySmileMan | Yes 4.2 > 4.1 | 22:31 |
| Dillizar | does any one know a program for virtual cd | 22:31 |
| BRICKFARMR | it's in backports | 22:31 |
| HappySmileMan | Dillizar: Not exactly sure what you mean | 22:32 |
| HappySmileMan | You can mount an ISO file using just the command line, but I'm not sure if there's a GUI way to do it | 22:32 |
| HappySmileMan | There probably is that I'm not sure of | 22:33 |
| Dillizar | HappySmileMan, i need a client to make a virtual cd rom like ultra iso or smt like that | 22:33 |
| sooki | so will the next kubuntu release come with 4.2? | 22:33 |
| Alethes | I'm having issues with amarok and kaffeine and shoutcast streams, which I think are both using the xine backend. I'm getting a kind of a squeak sound in the stream | 22:36 |
| pwnage | hiya | 22:36 |
| HappySmileMan | Dillizar: AcetoneISO is a Free Software program to mount and manage image files. | 22:37 |
| HappySmileMan | From wikipedia | 22:37 |
| HappySmileMan | Don't know if there are any packages, but it's Qt4 and open source | 22:38 |
| HappySmileMan | You can also run Nero on Linux but that costs money | 22:38 |
| HappySmileMan | sooki: Yeah it will have 4.2 | 22:38 |
| Dillizar | thanks HappySmileMan i am installing it right now, i really want to play Generals :) | 22:40 |
| HappySmileMan | Well hopefully it'll work, it can be mounted from the command line anyway if not, but that can be a bit of a hassle | 22:41 |
| Dillizar | happy i just want to mount a iso file and install it | 22:41 |
| Dillizar | i dont want to burn a cd i am too lazy and its 23:40 so i cant find a CD | 22:42 |
