[05:07] it's a site [05:07] awww [05:07] any thing i can install [05:07] astrobear: I would log out of kde, rename the entire folder to ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror-backup then log in to kde again so a new set of files regenerates. if it's not fixed, you'll know if it's one of those files or something somewhere else [05:07] perhaps a different browser?

[06:17] I find it odd for a wired connection to suddenly lose connectivity; moreover, no signs of issues with CAT-5 cable. [06:19] oie[ === JulCes_ is now known as JulCes [06:21] well, im gone for the night [06:21] g'night everyone! [06:23] Hi, what's the default dpi in Kubuntu on KDE 4.1? Is it me or does the text feel abnormally big? [06:25] the9a3eedi: it's you (or more likely your incorrectly detected hardware) [06:26] Is there a way to change the keyboard settings? They seem to be gone. I can't modify the repeat level and such. [06:28] draik_: system settings [06:28] jamesjedimaster: The keyboard option is gone. I can't choose to set Num Lock on by default or the repeat rate. [06:29] ah yes.. it WAS the DPI after all [06:30] draik_: are you missing any other options? [06:30] I manually set it to 96DPI [06:30] and its all good now [06:30] doleyb: Don't think so. That's the only one I've noticed so far. [06:30] maybe it figured that since I'm running an 1680x1050 it should switch to a higher DPI setting.. so yeah.. [06:32] I'm rebooting my desktop now and I'm hoping to get a steady connectivity with the interwebs [06:35] I am now connected to all the interwebs [06:37] Ok. so all is well with the desktop, but now my desktop seems to have eaten poopies on the network [06:37] scratch that, the laptop did [06:37] Laptop now has 31s lag [06:40] Ok. all is well with the network here; laptop 114ms & desktop 115ms [06:45] ...test === mike is now known as laloumpa [06:47] what are you testing noren? [06:48] 3+5= === Darkrift2 is now known as DarkriftX [06:50] i am looking to find some guide to reduce my powere consumption of the computer... any one [06:50] I'm looking to resolve all of my issues with this desktop and then those with life. [06:51] draik: whats the prob now [06:54] noren_: In no specific order... I can't use the nVidia drivers (repos or nVidia.com; desktop freezes either way), getting the keyboard function back in System Settings, keeping my network connectivity alive without having to reboot, somehow obtain the partition which I formatted (not low-level) so that I can restore the contents onto my new drive, remove lirc from boot, remove mysqld from boot, get my kcometen screensaver to work (part of the video [06:54] driver issue since it needs OpenGL)... just to name a few === astrobear is now known as astrocub === astrocub is now known as astrocub2 === astrocub2 is now known as astrobear [06:56] wow === john is now known as Guest25767 === Guest25767 is now known as GentooJohnny === xyz is now known as _xyz_ === _xyz_ is now known as __xyz__ === alexandr is now known as ED4-0014 [07:20] <__xyz__> пордон === maco_ is now known as maco === BOZG[Away] is now known as BOZG [07:37] so every time i log into KDE , regular buntu loads :( [07:37] with the menu bar uptoop, brown backgrouns little ubuntu sign [07:37] real gay and Mac like [07:38] macs are gay? huh. never knew that. when did Apple start putting genders on their computers? and when did those computers become amorous? [07:38] Any ideas how to fix this? [07:38] yeah, choose kde instead of gnome when you login [07:38] how? [07:39] its in the Sessions menu [07:39] ok [07:39] and stop using gay when you don't mean "happy" or "homosexual", k buddy? [07:42] lol [07:43] macs have come a LONG way from the days of the Apple IIGS I used in school [07:44] kde won't load :*( [07:45] i select kde in session, it shows the loading thing, a pciture of the ahrdrive, thenit goes back to login [07:45] tried it 3 times [07:46] sixofour: sounds like something is crashing on load and was saved when you logged out... in that state. [07:46] yeah, how do i fix that? [07:46] easiest way I ever found, was create a new user. === maco_ is now known as maco [07:47] i was in the process of installing hardware nvidia drivers and it froze so i did ctrl-alt-f1 and rebooted [07:47] but Im prolly really wrong about it. [07:47] a new user?? [07:47] I have Kubuntu 8.10. I want shell scripts to be able to send emails. Do I need sendmail? What else? [07:48] BentFranklin: #ubuntu-server is more likely to know [07:48] thanks [07:48] BentFranklin: that's the sort of things sysadmins like to do [07:48] sixofour: good luck with that. nvidia drivers are a constant problem accross all OS's [07:48] not for me, it was the act of closing while they were doing something [07:49] i basicly forced rebooted during a major system change [07:49] that shouldnt break your user....just X [07:49] my user works [07:49] you prolly fubarred your user [07:49] just not in kde [07:49] your user doesnt work for kde... [07:49] i'm the same user runnign gnome now [07:49] ok so..? [07:50] different settings for each [07:50] even though the user is the same the settings are different [07:50] kde doesn't write in the same places gnome does. [07:51] yeah, i know [07:51] but how can i fix kde? [07:51] sounds like your session settings are messed up [07:51] indeed [07:51] so if you create a new user and kde loads. [07:51] is there something i can dalate? [07:51] delete* [07:51] that would prove its your kde session settings. [07:52] so how is that done? [07:52] sixofour: Ive tried deleting all of them with gnome. you always seem to miss one of importance. [07:53] Im sure its the same with KDE [07:54] so..how do i do that? [07:54] your in gnome right? [07:54] i guess, ive never used gnome === xyz is now known as __xyz___ === __xyz___ is now known as __xyz__ [07:56] easiest way is administration from the system menu and users [07:57] what would that be called?..there is nothing in the system emnu related to suer stuff [07:57] sixofour: I don't have gnome installed [07:57] so I can't reference it directly [07:57] btw, only kde apps are listed lol [07:58] kwallet, konvorsation etc etc [07:58] lol of course [07:58] so then look for kusers [07:59] or System>Kuser User Manager [08:00] Im new to the whole KDE thing frankly [08:00] Gnome and fluxbox [08:00] are my WM's of preference. [08:02] in gnome it's [08:02] system -> peferences -> users & groups [08:02] the command is users-admin [08:03] oh bah im confused [08:03] i thought sixofour couldnt login to kde? [08:03] i used a different kernal and it worked [08:03] lol [08:03] * maco is confused [08:04] i couldn;'t log into kde [08:04] so i selected a different kernal [08:04] in grub [08:04] and it worked [08:06] maco: me too now [08:07] the kernel should have NOTHING to do with the user. [08:07] its loaded long before any user scripts or other things are. [08:09] kernel > drivers > X > wm > desktop [08:11] though the drivers are now whats sounding bad because a different kernel wouldn't have loaded the same drivers. [08:11] :D [08:12] nvidia drivers working too [08:12] all my icons are busted though :( [08:12] what were the differences in kernels/drivers between the two? [08:12] hrm [08:12] none of my shortcuts work :/ [08:13] hrm [08:13] this isn't working :/ lol [08:13] sixofour: try a brand new user. [08:13] it thinks i have no programs installed that arn't aprt of the default package [08:14] what will that prove? [08:14] create a new user and try that. then you'll see if its at the backend of the loading process or the front end of it. [08:14] how? [08:15] read up for gnome, in kde its System > Kuser User Manager [08:15] i'm not in gnome [08:15] i' [08:15] hi, when my system boots it is giving me an error "X Server died during startup" in the syslog, but running "startx" from the shell it then gives works; how can I go about diagnosing the problem? [08:15] i'm in kde [08:16] martin_: where did X die exactly [08:16] or even better pastebin the syslog at the point it died [08:17] martin_: check the xorg log file usuing log viewer [08:17] GentooJohnny: just after splash screen and before anything was displayed [08:17] ok pastebin the xorg log and/or syslog at the point of it dying [08:17] there is no kuser manager [08:18] sixofour: Im sorry Im just using whats in front of me, using KDE 4.2 [08:18] 4.1 [08:19] martin_: any ideas? [08:19] sixofour: Upgrade to 4.2 [08:19] ... [08:19] sixofour: sorry, no idea [08:19] er [08:20] i meant rob not you martin_ lol [08:20] sixofour: hang on one sec [08:20] sixofour: open adept [08:21] sixofour: kde 4.2 has kuser in it [08:21] what is adept? [08:21] non sò da che parte cominciare [08:21] its the package installer for kde [08:21] GentooJohnny: the X.org log appears not to be timestamped. As I am now in X, do I want the .log.old file? [08:21] i thoguth apt-get was [08:21] i use apt-get [08:21] in KDE go into the menu [08:22] ok [08:22] you should see adept in there. [08:22] martin_: pastin bin it and post the link in here so we can see it. [08:23] yes the last one that shows the crash data [08:23] sixofour: after that goto sources [08:23] adept is open [08:24] after sources edit software source [08:24] are you trying to get me to update kde? [08:24] sixofour: see this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu [08:24] GentooJohnny: http://paste.ubuntu.com/135259/ - and thanks a lot for any help - it's much appreciated [08:24] now remember KDE 4.2 is unsupported [08:24] i don't want 4.2 [08:24] for that reason [08:25] and i don't want to update a broken kde :P [08:26] fair enough [08:26] GentooJohnny: 4.2 is supported its been released [08:26] there is no settings.file for my user i can delete? [08:27] robin0800: the only way to get KDE 4.2 is to check unsupported updates in sources so I don't think so :P [08:27] unless it was officially released yesterday [08:27] in adept anyway === martin is now known as DocTomoe [08:28] well, its 3:30 am [08:28] sixofour: the only way to make sure it all works is too update to kde 4.2 [08:28] i will fix this tomorrow [08:29] hmmm, there's a suggestion that it's a usplash problem [08:29] or i can install 4.1 and overwrite everything [08:29] I'll try disabling it [08:29] sixofour: you could try that [08:29] nah, it shows the box with the hardrive icon, then it resets [08:29] I just upgraded an old intrepid pre-release system that hid undetected for the last few months to intrepid final. Ever since, my sound isn [08:30] t working. The system indicates, however, that it found the soundcard. I tried reinstalling the xine ecosystem, but to no avail what can I do to have sound once more? [08:30] * sixofour is away [08:36] nothing that can be done about that sound problem? [08:38] DocTomoe: hrm [08:41] GentooJohnny: is that a "hrm, let me think of an incantation to resurrect your sound daemon" or "hrm, you start to annoy me"? [08:41] ;) [08:42] lol no [08:42] Im not a sound guy Im just thinking of a good way to get your problem out there. [08:45] DocTomoe: a sound guy is signing on [08:46] so there you go, DocTomoe pastebin the error(s) and we'll see [08:46] I suppose this is good news ;) whom may I refer to concerning my sound problem? [08:46] GentooJohnny: thats the funny thing: there are no errors. just no sound. [08:46] him ^ [08:47] DocTomoe: there has to be an error or something. if not it would be working. a driver looking for hardware etc...etc.. [08:47] dtchen: DocTomoe just found an intrepid devel system. on there, audio worked dandy. on intrepid final, it regressed [08:47] DocTomoe: do you have more than one soundcard? [08:48] DocTomoe: can you download http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh and run it and paste the link here? [08:48] mefisto_: actually, yes, this is a shuttle pc with on-board aound and an audigy card. neither workds [08:49] DocTomoe: so there are speakers connected to outputs of both cards? [08:49] mefisto_: nope. just to the audigy card. [08:50] http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=b9c382c67a9b71ad0fa9eb75bee8937bc3c44d30 [08:50] DocTomoe: so "neither works" means you unplugged the speakers and tried in the other? [08:50] kubuntu 4.1 detected my soundblaster audigy2 card just fine on install. [08:51] erm [08:51] maco, hat is what I meant [08:51] kubuntu 8.04 [08:51] DocTomoe: mute 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' === tackat is now known as tackat_shower [08:52] only the audigy is recognized. onboard's not. might be disabled in bios though [08:52] hm, I kind of feel like a stoopid end-user - how exactly do I mute? [08:52] (that's a common way to deal with deciding which card to use) [08:52] alsamixer should let you [08:52] ah, found it, muted it, sound sorks [08:52] great [08:53] dtchen: why should *muting* make sound audible? this sounds backwards [08:53] :) thanks for the input. I would never have figured that one out... [08:53] loll good question maco [08:53] just to clarify: if you have it UNmuted, the codec routes to the speaker-/line-out jack; if you have it muted, the codec routes to the spdif [08:53] sorry, i said it backward [08:54] muted -> speaker-/line-out jack; unmuted -> spdif [08:54] oh it doesnt try both at all times? [08:54] to [08:54] interesting [08:54] no* [08:54] don't think of it as mute vs unmute [08:55] think of it as a binary toggle between speaker-/line-out and spdif [08:55] ahh [08:55] yeah this was DEFINITELY a you question [08:55] falls into the category of things we didnt hit during mentorship [08:56] (i was just grabbing you because regressions = bad and thought if it was real you ought to know) [08:57] beware: this binary toggle flip is only valid for certain revisions of STAC975x [08:57] for the *earlier* revisions, the necessary toggle is *backward* [08:57] oh dear. exceptions. [08:57] wow. jerks. [09:09] hi [09:17] qlq1 utilise tork ? [09:22] lol [09:22] los3r: nobody can help you if you don't say nothing [09:24] does anyone use tork ? === tackat_shower is now known as tackat_breakfast [09:43] * SSJ_GZ eats tackat_breakfast === heracleitos is now known as tiresias [09:53] hi guys i run kubuntu hardy, lately is been goin superslow and when i restart the system and it shuts down all the processes a couple of em fail and one of em just doesnt go ahead so it never restarts, is there a tool to verify the integrity of the system? or what do u suggest? thanks [09:54] hi guys i run kubuntu hardy, lately is been goin superslow and when i restart the system and it shuts down all the processes a couple of em fail and one of em just doesnt go ahead so it never restarts, is there a tool to verify the integrity of the system? or what do u suggest? thanks [09:56] I don't know any tool [09:56] my suggestion is to investigate the problem ^^ [09:57] Topsun: wow... thanks man!!!! [09:58] xD which processes do exactly fail? [09:58] have you changed / installed something? [09:59] nothing [09:59] it came like this just out of the blue [10:00] you may look at the process list and see which progam consumes much CPU time [10:01] the command for this is 'top' [10:01] if your system is slow at the very moment you will see the running process at the top of the list [10:03] hi, anyone knows whats the difference between imap and disconnected imap in kmail? [10:05] userone: 'normal' imap keeps the network connection open. if you are not permanently connected to the internet you may want to use disconnected imap [10:06] userone: kmail syncs local mails to the server and the other way too [10:07] why isn't kbunutu hardy LTS and ubuntu hardy is? they both use the same repos right? [10:07] in disconnected mode do I need to do something to get messages? [10:08] I dont even see any messge or even folder when I open the account? [10:08] gnumm: kubuntu is merely a spin-off from ubuntu so as far as i know canonical does not support it but you are right it may be considered LTS if it has the same repos [10:09] so when kde works fine i can use kbunutu lts until the next lts version..? [10:10] yes i guess [10:10] userone: i don't use kmail so i can't answer this qestion exactly. perhaps there is a download, sync or connect button? [10:11] what is the more relevant email client that you've experienced under Kubuntu ? [10:12] CoXmiK: i personally prefer thunderbird ^^ [10:12] yes I think I need to use check mail button, I thought that was only for pop accounts [10:13] userone: if you use disconnected imap it's more or less somethin like pop [10:14] I see, now it seems to be downloading the whole account... :/ [10:15] userone: yes of course. in order to provide you all mails while not being disconnected it has to do this === lucas_ is now known as MagiaJoven [10:16] userone: correction: not being connected ^^ [10:16] I see thats not really what I want then [10:17] how do i set a proxy for IRC in kopete ? [10:17] if I set it the other way what is supposed to download? [10:18] userone: disconnected imap is intended for laptops etc. where you want to read mails without an internet connection [10:19] userone: you have to subscribe the folders and it will download only the headers of your mails. if you open a mail the whole mail is downloaded === Nightwalker_ is now known as Nightwalker- [10:23] lyhana8: kopete should use the kde proxy settings [10:24] lyhana8: or do you want to use a socks proxy? === tackat_breakfast is now known as tackat [10:24] Topsun: don't know. I want to use the web via TOR [10:24] so i install tork [10:26] lyhana8: the web = only websites? then you don't need to set anything in kopete as long as you changed the proxy settings in your browser [10:26] http, ssh, IRC, P2P as much apps as possible [10:27] it looks like its downloading whole messages and not just headers [10:28] lyhana8: you really wanna do that? it slows down your transfer speed markedly [10:28] really ? i thought it was a transparent process... [10:29] userone: is there an option to say kmail that it should only download message headers? [10:30] lyhana8: what do you mean by 'transparent'? [10:31] lyhana8: have you read the 'how does it work' page on their website? [10:31] Topsun: thought that'll be the same as without TOR [10:31] er... nop [10:32] if there is, I cant see it, it seems to be downloading all messages from all folders [10:32] lyhana8: assume that you connect to another person with a dial-up connection and therefore you only get the maximum of your and the others up / down stream [10:33] userone: and you really changed to 'normal' imap? [10:34] no, I was talking about disconnected imap === JP-sNL3 is now known as jpsnl3 [10:36] userone: then its normal operation ^^ [10:37] I see, so disconnected downloads everything you have in the account, headers, messages, attachments... [10:37] userone: yes [10:39] is there some hidden setting for normal imap to keep a cache of watched messages? [10:40] userone: afaik it should do that already [10:41] userone: maybe you have to change to 'offline mode' to say kmail that it should not contact the server [10:50] is it possible to find out, which graphics driver is in use at the moment? [10:52] mamr: xorg log [10:55] thanks [11:12] anyone here?

Intel cards have issues with opengl [11:50] can it goes even ...fine? [11:50] 1280x1000? or better? [11:50] that depends on the card [11:51] could you get that resolution on i.e windows? [11:51] huh? [11:51] well the card is the card.. it won't give you more resolution than it is able to [11:52] that's what i mean [11:52] yesterday before i formated from vista, it has better resolution [11:52] if the card does not support 1280x1000... [11:52] hmm then you will have to keep on asking.. the flickering was caused most likely by the opengl thing [11:53] don't ask me why, but my intel card hates it, and so did a few more ones from here [11:53] about drivers and stuff you will have to keep on asking the guys because i honestly dunno [11:53] i seee [11:54] really regret that i totally format my vista [11:54] i mean the hdd [11:54] hmmmm give yourself some time and you won't [11:54] honest, it's just about getting used === cez is now known as CeZ === CeZ is now known as CeZ[PhiN] [11:54] yea, the features are better than vista [11:55] just the drivers issues....

[12:07] well those packages you can download from restricted repos i guess [12:08] jussi01: this printer supports PS3 and PCL6 but there is the possibility to make high quality printouts in a so called 4-Bit mode. i would like to know if this is also possible under linux. [12:08] arius: have a look on linuxprinting.org - likely the info is there [12:08] now it wont give me the error its giving me somthing else 1 sec [12:09] in ubuntu you need to go to synaptic packet manager and download it.... it should be there with medibuntu repo...

[12:16] how do i do that? [12:16] oh wait [12:17] jussi01: Status: "works mostly" - found another interesting info at openprinting.org. whether the postscript related features can be used or accessed depends on the PPD file as I understood and Konica offers one for this printer. [12:17] jussi01: thanks for your hint - bye all [12:17] omg bazhang, i love you [12:18] i think thats what was screwing me over [12:18] package 'eve' was installed [12:18] thank you very much === chris_ is now known as chrismir [12:39] Hello.

[14:40] martin: mv test*.ods test.ods make sure the folder only contains that file [14:40] latest updates of KDE 4.2.1 broke some of the plasmoids, any an idea what is going on ? [14:40] martin: you could also cat the file [14:40] FatBoy: remove them then readd [14:41] ActionParsnip: Tried that, removed them and readded, still the same problem [14:41] good morning all [14:41] FatBoy , there are warnings about removing the old pasmoids before upgrading [14:41] martin: can you not rename in konqueror / dolphin? [14:41] http://kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2 [14:42] thank you ActionParsnip; no Dolphin doesn't like it - the file came from an ntfs system via a unison synchronisation and it has v.messed up characters in it [14:42] go to rename and dolphin says it doesn't exist [14:42] is there an easy way to reset an existing installation to near default package composition... over subsequent updates, somehow gnome has managed to replace itself as the default wm for some of the users even though gnome wasn't explicity installed.

I can load certain sites once a session, but after closing the browser and re-opening, I get hung up loading a page (usually on affiliate advertising).. For example, digg.com will load fine for me when I restart the computer, but if I close my browser and go to that site later, it gets stuck loading 'edge.quantserve.com' and never completes. This happens with [15:29] Konqueror, Firefox, and Opera. Any ideas? [15:29] ign0ramus, please keep your links on topic and work safe. [15:29] watchbot: please keep your warnings automated [15:30] ign0ramus: heh, sorry [15:30] when did we get a watchbot? [15:30] ign0ramus: it's new, i'm still tuning it [15:31] LjL: sadly, it's pretty necessary any more [15:31] LjL: can you load digg? [15:31] ign0ramus: yes, just tried [15:31] it takes a while to load in my Konqueror (KDE 3.5), but it loads [15:32] LjL: I can always get the site to load at first, but after closing the browser, it gets hung up trying to load 'edge.quantserve.com' each time, and never fully loads... [15:33] m4v, amigo me libere para canal kubuntu-es [15:33] ign0ramus: i don't know what that server is - it doesn't seem to have the same IP as digg, so i guess it must be some image [15:33] !es | assilva [15:33] assilva: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés.

[15:35] ign0ramus: i've looked at digg.com's source, and it does load stuff quantserve.com - specifically a javascript script, and an image [15:35] LjL, please keep your links on topic and work safe. [15:35] haha! pwned by your own bot! [15:36] eh, i'll make it a bit more relaxed about general sites now [15:37] LjL: You were right - I configured NoScript to disallow quantserve on Digg, now the site loads fast... It may just be any issue of that site. [15:39] LjL: in fact, to try to load edge(dot)quantserve(dot)com, it takes forever, so it is probaby just an issue for them (Lets see if watchbot catches this one...) [15:39] ign0ramus: it doesn't have anything against quantserve, only against... digg dot com ;) [15:39] LjL, please keep your links on topic and work safe.

[16:28] noren: gentoo uses source, ubuntu uses binary and packages, gentoo uses source [16:29] but some larger packages such as oo.org have optional binaries so it doesn't take hours to install.' [16:29] noren: the installation takes a lot longer in gentoo as all the apps are downloaded as source then compiled in with special options. if you use good setttings for your compiler you can get extra speed from your system [16:30] E: Couldn't find package kde-workspace-dev [16:30] noren: ubuntu is made to be easy to use for all, gentoo requires a little more work but is fun to install [16:30] which is a better/intelligent choice mooving frm gentoo to ubuntu or ortherwise ??? [16:30] Itacious: use apt-file like the guide says to lcate the .h file you are missing [16:30] hello all [16:30] noren: how do you mean intelligent? [16:31] noren: its a different distro with different strengths and weakneses, neither is better [16:31] ActionParsnip: i already got kubuntu 32bit and 64 bit on my desktop now i wanted to experiment with something more, can i try that simultaneously on the same system [16:32] sure, you'll just have another OS sat on your system [16:32] noren: yu could run every single distro of linux if you so desired [16:33] wow. apt-file looks very useful. i'll have to remember it. [16:33] noren: why do you have 32bit and 64bit on the same system [16:33] Itacious: its a good tool [16:34] noren: with ia32libs you can run 32bit apps on a 64bit system [16:34] that i know i have been using them both [16:35] ooh. it's kdebase-workspace-dev [16:35] Itacious: there you go then [16:35] Thanks so much!

[16:39] Itacious: websearch your errors and you will win [16:44] hi [16:45] how to list packages installed by adept in commandline? [16:45] I mean what command i can use for it [16:45] rain: why only pacjkages instaleld by adept ? [16:46] then all? [16:46] to see every package installed ... dpkg -l | grep ^i [16:46] because adept can only remove packages installed by adept? [16:47] dpkg -l * |grep ^i ... [16:48] mmm just testing ... seems dpkg -l already shows all packages installed [16:48] rain: all package tools interface the same to the package library so you can use apt-get to uninstall stuff installed via adept [16:48] cool [16:48] Slartibartfast: the ones beginnig with rc are uninstalled but the config is not purged [16:48] dpkg --get-selections [16:49] Slartibartfast: ii ones are installed fully [16:49] Hmm ... but is dpkg -l not shoowing all packages installed ?? [16:49] # apt-get remove --purge `dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Package}\n' | grep language-pack | egrep -v '\-en'` how to modify this command to keep en and et both? [16:51] rain: grep -v makes it find things that DON'T match the arg [16:52] ok [16:52] but what grep ^i does? [16:52] i guess i comes from word include? [16:52] rain: id have the command output what it is going to remove so yuo can check it [16:53] rain: ^i means the found items where the line STARTS WITH the letter i [16:55] rain: so you want to delete every language pack which is not -en or -et ... Do you then have installed so many language packs ? ... [16:56] when i do dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Package}\n' | grep language-pack ... it shows on my notebook only en language packs are installed [16:56] only -en ^^ [16:56] well I am actually trying make my own cd http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-customize-your-ubuntu-live-cd-p2 [16:57] ah .. ok ok ...

[22:16] <|PaperTiger|> I want to get the data off there to a seperate HDD, but because I chose a weird method to format, it's messed up the boot loader [22:16] <|PaperTiger|> So I can't boot at all, and I'm now running from a LiveCD. [22:16] :x virtual machines are better if ur just messing around w/ linux to learn [22:16] so basically, you just need to fix grub? [22:17] I think you can do that from the livecd, unsure how to exactly though [22:17] <|PaperTiger|> I want to copy data from an ext3 partition and an ntfs partition to one seperate ntfs HDD [22:17] <|PaperTiger|> I'm using Linux as a main OS and Windows for games etc. [22:18] yeah there are a bunch of restoring grub guides all over if you google them, but to be honest, the easiest is Super Grub Disk, if not just google for a guide [22:18] i sopent hours trying to fix it and couldn't get it working when windows overwrote grub and now its like SGD and its done "D [22:18] :D* [22:18] <|PaperTiger|> I actually can't use the internet browser on this LiveCD for some reason... :S so, I'll just Super Grub Disk [22:19] <|PaperTiger|> Super Grub Disk it is...

[22:28] Except now, GRUB complains about, "Error 28: Not enough memory" or some-such. [22:29] Even after changing it back, GRUB refused to boot Windows. [22:30] The exact error message was, "Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory". [22:31] Could KDM have changed any settings anywhere that would have effected GRUB's ability to boot into Windows? [22:31] Does anyone know why after i installed wine on my Box my sounds suddenly stopped? [22:32] i cant hear anything anymore.. and yes i chceked my sound options [22:33] <|PaperTiger|> psyco?

[22:52] p_quarles: well, just to add the 2 sources [22:52] also, don't expect immediate responses in irc [22:52] the printing icon, the PDF icon, the search-icon.... [22:52] I know, but here are over 300 people [22:53] just these normal symbols/icons you have in your word processing propgramms [22:53] programms [22:53] denis_: there are over 300 clients in the channel; that doesn't mean people, and it doesn't mean people are at their keyboards [22:54] what else? robots? yes, I know that there not all at their keyboards...

[23:05] I understand, my point is, for 2.4 you need to install a separate package for the icons, maybe for 3.0 its the same and you are missing that package [23:06] ah, I see and I think I have the solution [23:06] it's not; if you don't install the kde icons, either version defaults to the standard icons [23:06] I am installing the kde integration package [23:07] I see, I thought the icons package were needed [23:07] ah, Halleluja! [23:07] seems to be both icon package and integration [23:10] good night [23:10] or wait a second [23:11] userone: do you have a minute? [23:13] yes [23:16] userone: great!
