[00:29] <user16> hey pps...having a problem that's a known bug (cdrecord not having write permissions on /dev/scd1)...however, any changes I make to items in the /dev tree don't survive a reboot...does anyone know a permanent fix for this?

[00:38] <linuxmce> I need help installing a driver. anyone with some spare time?
[00:38] <marc> I tried "sudo update-rc.d NetworManager add" but it didn't like that :)

[01:05] <user16> simply chmodding it doesn't help...only temporary fix

[01:14] <dr_willis> user16:  it may be the user needs to bne in the proper group
[01:15] <dr_willis>  ./dev/ is built 'on the fly' thats why changes dont stick. as a Dirty work around. You could pur the command to 'fix' it in /etc/rc.local
[01:15] <dr_willis> and err.. cdrecord wouldent be writing to /dev/sdc1   it would be /dev/sdc
[01:17] <user16> dr_willis: the user is in the proper group (cdrom) but cdrecrod and wodim (simlink are both owned by root:root
[01:18] <user16> should cdrecord in /usr/bin be owned by root:cdrom?
[01:19] <dr_willis> thats the owner of the binary.. it wouldent make much sence for them to be owned that way i think
[01:19] <user16> do changes in the usr/bin directory stick?
[01:19] <user16> and I don't know what the 'fix' is to put it into /etc/rc.local :-)
[01:20] <dr_willis> You just said you did some command to change the permissions in /dev/
[01:20] <user16> yes...put that same one into rc.local? chmodding the device to 777?
[01:21] <dr_willis> yes.....
[01:21] <dr_willis> not a good fix.. but a fix i guess
[01:21] <dr_willis> be sure you get the right device
[01:21] <user16> ok...it's wierd that this is a recurrent problem on some of my systems, but not on all
[01:22] <dr_willis> Im not in ubuntu at the moment so cant test. ive never had any issues with it however
[01:23] <user16> i've probably put hardy on about a dozen systems now, and issues with perms on optical drives are recurrent, right after initial installation
[01:23] <dr_willis> You are installing from cd, not from a usb-thummbdrive?
[01:24] <user16> but not on every system...can't seem to be able to determine when it'll come up...i'm installing from the mini.iso usually
[01:24] <dr_willis> initial user cant burn either eh? or all users? or just some users?
[01:25] <user16> initial user can't burn, right from the get-go...that initial user always has sudo priviledges and is usually the only user
[01:26] <dr_willis> why are you even using the mini.iso?
[01:26] <user16> and as I said, this and similar probs with optical drives occur on many systems, but not all...maybe 50% of systems after clean install
[01:28] <user16> i like the mini.iso because it's faster than alternate or livecd install cds...always keep putting off getting my pxe install server configured
[01:28] <dr_willis> i alweays thougjht ubuntu set up a /dev/dvd or /dev/cdrom /dev/dvdrw links to point to the real device..  could be the permissions on those are wrong.
[01:28] <dr_willis> I put the alternative cd on a bootable thumb drive.. makes it very snappy :)
[01:28] <dr_willis> of course all the updates take as long as the initial install.
[01:28] <user16> exactly...hence the mini.iso...don't have to do updates
[01:29] <dr_willis>  You just have to install everything to begin with.. over and over and over. :)
[01:29] <dr_willis> id say test out a normal install/dekstop and see if you can spot any differances
[01:29] <user16> because initial install is done with newest versions available
[01:30] <user16> or maybe get off my a*** and tackle the pxe install server again :(
[01:31] <dr_willis> i just set up a  apt-cach server and let all the rest of the pcs in the lan use that one
[01:32] <user16> yeah, but you're better at this kind of stuff than I :-) i'm doing so much other stuff (like marketing, <ugh>) i end up putting more advanced learning off
[01:33] <dr_willis> !find apt-proxy
[01:34] <user16> well, bot?
[01:34] <dr_willis> Im suprised you are even messing with the mini.iso :) see if the normal desktop works  where the mini method fails. and file a bug if ya you can prove its a differance.
[01:34] <dr_willis> !info apt-proxy
[01:34] <dr_willis> of coruse is thios worth the effort for a small lan. :)
[01:35] <user16> i have a small lan, but I'm often doing a build a week...then giving the pc away
[01:36] <user16> got word of another distribution channel approval on friday, will try to get still another distribution channel tomorrow
[01:40] <user16> dr_willis: thanks, looking at the howto now...will consider it as a substitution for that pxe install server with all it's many parts...(hate building dhcp servers!)
[01:40] <dr_willis> if they are identical machines.. you can clone them in other ways
[01:42] <user16> they're never identical machines...hardware depends on the donations i get
[01:45] <user16> and canonical still needs to fix some of their official documentation...these days they're saying vsftpd is so superior over other ftp server programs...but only half the steps are there, so, not surprisingly,  following the howto doesn't work
[01:46] <user16> i can't believe they've let the documentation bug in the apache howto survive all these years :(
[01:47] <user16> oh well...gonna reboot to see if this rc.local edit fixes the issue
[01:48] <user16> later
[02:11] <Kasm279> oh, cheese
[02:12] <faydriss> i can not call up my 500g ext3 drive
[02:13] <Kasm279> i cant enable my second video output or otherwise change any of the display settings

[05:48] <xevious> i installed kubuntu but i can't figure out how to tell it to customize my myspace. help!!!
[05:49] <cerecitas> xevious myspace like from microsoft?
[05:49] <xevious> myspace like from the internet
[05:50] <cerecitas> i don't get what you want to do... dunno if i need more coffee but what you want to customize?
[05:50] <xevious> i want cool colors on my profile
[05:51] <cerecitas> i am not really sure that kubuntu can customize my space, you can customize the browser...but myspace i think it goes separately
[05:51] <xevious> oh. :( rofl
[05:51] <cerecitas> not sure anyway
[05:52] <xevious> what about my facebook?
[05:53] <cerecitas> i think the same, i really do not think you can customize websites... the options myspace and facebook give to you should not be affected by kubuntu... yet i might very well be wrong
[05:53] <xevious> and how do i integrate webdav and ical integration with apache, providing my users with seamless iCal integration?
[05:54] <cerecitas> that i have no idea
[05:54] <Slartibartfast> xevious: maybe you can do a google search instead of asking people to do it for you
[05:54] <xevious> no i'll give you my root password and you can telnet to my server
[05:54] <cerecitas> uffff
[05:54] <cerecitas> it's too early for this, honest.
[05:54] <Slartibartfast> yeah, right :-)
[05:55] <josh-l> i wish the firefox-qt was working better
[05:55] <xevious> g'night. sorry about being a pain in the arse

[10:23] <stdin> Haza: "sudo update-java-alternatives -s <name>"
[10:23] <stdin> use update-java-alternatives -l too see the available runtimes
[10:25] <Haza> stdin: Perfect thank you
[10:28] <Haza> stdin: It worked thank you. For some reason my Runtime was set to IcedTea6 ?
[10:28] <Haza> (My Java GUI's looked terrible)
[10:28] <stdin> maybe it sets itself to default when installed

[11:06] <justinnfx> Can anyone help I just got done Installing Kubuntu and grub did not install I still have the xp/vista boot mean
[11:07] <userone> hello, is there some sort of network monitor for kde? something that shows open network connection and http traffic details
[11:07] <larsaam> justinnfx: you should be able to install just grub with the livecd, a little tricky but...
[11:07] <userone> something like live http headers firefox plugin but system wide
[11:07] <justinnfx> hmm im a noob, how tricky
[11:07] <larsaam> userone: netstat?
[11:08] <amgarching> I was again locked out from firefox after a crash. Some of the sqlite databases were left locked (/home is an NFS filesystem). After making a copy of those and renaming back to original locks should have gone. And indded browser history and back button work again. However the google toolbar doesnt: no history neither any search result, just ignoring me. What elese could it be?
[11:08] <larsaam> justinnfx: not sure if I remember, but should be to go trough the normal install procedure, but no reinstall,
[11:08] <larsaam> justinnfx: maybe investigate why the grub was not installed?
[11:08] <userone> isnt netstat a command?
[11:09] <larsaam> justinnfx: or just http://www.vlug.org/pipermail/discuss/2008-March/024670.html
[11:10] <justinnfx> larsaam:  I have no idea, it installed great, the partions show up, and under computer it show it installed too
[11:11] <userone> if you have 2 disks maybe it was installed to the wrong disk
[11:12] <justinnfx> no
[11:12] <justinnfx> I have 3 disk
[11:12] <justinnfx> and each disk has it own os
[11:12] <beardbar> I am having issues automouting an extra hard drive that contains my music files. im trying to understand fstab but my hd just doesnt seem to mount. anyone point me to a step by step guide perhaps I am missing a step.
[11:12] <justinnfx> it didn't wipe out any of my other os so,,,
[11:13] <userone> If you didnt install it to the mbr of the disk you are booting from I think you wont see it then
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> justinnfx: dont ask in both channels, you look silly
[11:14] <justinnfx> I installed it across the entire disk
[11:15] <justinnfx> lol
[11:15] <justinnfx> my bad
[11:16] <userone> I mean, you have windows on disk 1 and you installed linux on disk 2, if you install grub to disk 2's mbr and you boot from disk 1 you will see windows boot manager
[11:22] <Nortt> Need config HArd disk boot prority in BIOS
[11:23] <Nortt> *priroity
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> justinnfx: install grub on one of the disks then add entrys to boot the other OSes
[11:35] <rehman> hi every one.
[11:35] <rehman> please help, konqueror is not opening the page.
[11:36] <userone> I'm looking for some kind of network monitor that displays http traffic with urls visited and such, anyone knows?
[11:36] <dr_willis> ntop can do that.
[11:36] <dr_willis> but its proberly overkill for your needs.
[11:37] <rehman> please help me on konqueror
[11:38] <userone> thanks I'll check it
[11:38] <victim> rehman: will konqueror open http://www.kubuntu.org/  ?
[11:39] <mefisto__> rehman: what page?
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> rehman: what page can't it open?
[11:42] <bonez46> how does one provide maintenance on a hard drive with kbuntu, graphically? I cant' find a partitioner....or anything to let me reformat a hard drive
[11:43] <bazhang> !info qtparted
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> bonez46: you can use fsck on unmounted drives and partitions
[11:45] <rehman> Action sory
[11:45] <rehman> action. i mean it does not browse
[11:48] <mefisto__> rehman: do other browsers work?
[11:49] <bonez46> I have kbuntu installed.. what I really would prefer is installling just plain ubuntu.. with gnome.. can I install it next to kbuntu.. and have it boot instead of kbuntu?
[11:50] <mefisto__> bonez46: yes. install ubuntu-desktop
[11:50] <mefisto__> bonez46: you can choose which to log in to at the login screen
[11:54] <bonez46> does kbuntu have a torrent client included, and if so, what's it name?
[11:54] <mefisto__> ktorrent
[11:55] <bonez46> mefisto__: ok, next question. where's a launcher? to lauch ktorrent?
[11:56] <mefisto__> bonez46: should be in the menu, in the "internet" submenu. or alt-F2 and type ktorrent
[11:57] <bonez46> mefisto__: thanks.. I appreciate the tips..
[11:58] <userone> is there some package that provides better firefox integration? I only see ubufox in adept, is it for kubuntu too?
[11:58] <mefisto__> bonez46: one thing you should know about having both kde and gnome installed: the menus in both desktops will be kind of cluttered with apps from both. you might see some things in your menu without icons
[11:58] <Dillizar> i dont understand  kubuntu 8.10, kde4 dosnt have desktop but kubuntu 8.10 have 2?
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> Dillizar: how do you mean by "doesnt have desktop"
[12:00] <userone> I tried to install ubuntu desktop and it didnt end up so good, also I got 2 network manager applets and none worked
[12:01] <Dillizar> ActionParsnip well desktop in kde4.1 its just a widget
[12:01] <mefisto__> Dillizar: you are talking about the folder /home/username/Desktop ?
[12:02] <Dillizar> yes
[12:03] <mefisto__> Dillizar: if you want the Desktop folder to appear on the desktop as it did in kde 3, you can upgrade to kde 4.2 and switch the desktop to "folder view" mode
[12:08] <Dillizar> mefisto__ i point was that 4.1 doesnt have desktop but yet you can choose from two
[12:08] <Dillizar> :D
[12:10] <mefisto__> Dillizar: choose from two? two what? two desktops?
[12:10] <bonez46> mefisto__: one more question.. how do I bring up the menu you mentioned before, not with alt-f2, but the other one
[12:11] <bonez46> I installed ubuntu desktop, but it halted before it finished updating grub..
[12:11] <mefisto__> bonez46: the default menu shortcut is alt-F1 I believe. or just click the menu button
[12:12] <Dillizar> yes
[12:13] <bonez46> ok, I see the K menu button.. but there  was another I accessed accidentally.. and it listed ktorrent and others.. but now I can't find it again, and not at alt-f1 either..
[12:13] <mefisto__> bonez46: did you do the install in commandline?
[12:15] <mefisto__> bonez46: you have another menu? is it lancelot? or the old style Kmenu?
[12:15] <bonez46> hmmm not sure.
[12:16] <mefisto__> Dillizar: I don't know what you mean. what 2 desktops can you choose?
[12:16] <bonez46> as for the install of ubuntu-desktop. I booted with an 8.10 ubuntu disk. ran install.. it got to a screen near the end.. and just froze with blank screen and cursor. and that was it..
[12:17] <mefisto__> bonez46: wait, I thought you already had kubuntu installed
[12:17] <bonez46> in 30" .. I have downloaded 20 mb of a 1.6 gb .iso file..
[12:17] <bonez46> I have kbuntu installed.
[12:18] <bonez46> but I think I am more a gnome type. just seems an easier interface for me.. so I wnat to installll it instead of kbuntu..
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> bonez46: you can just run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and you can switch over
[12:18] <bonez46> ok..
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> bonez46: you dont have to reinstall the whole OS just for a different DE
[12:19] <mefisto__> bonez46: yes, what ActionParsnip said. and if you want to remove kde completely, look here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[12:19] <dr_willis> thats windows thinking.. :)
[12:19] <dr_willis> lol
[12:19] <bonez46> ok.. I'll launch that and have it run while I am at work today...
[12:20] <dr_willis> i alway install gnome and kde.. just too many jhandy apps in both to limit myself
[12:21] <mefisto__> dr_willis: but which do you log into? both?
[12:22] <dr_willis> i rarely use kde desktop.. just kde apps
[12:27] <Nortt> HElp!
[12:28] <Nortt> why when i choose update any KDE

[12:48] <justinnfx> I am installing kubuntu for the first time, I deleted the partion under manual because I want to make it a certian size, but now it asking me for a moint point, what should I use?
[13:04] <adred> Hi, my system always reverts to 800x600 resolution each time i log in. Is this expected for alpha releases? will this be fixed on the next release?
[13:04] <jussi01> Hei all!! is there a nice meta package that gives me a whole load of fonts?
[13:04] <mefisto__> !jaunty | adred
[13:17] <jimmy51_> is digikam included by default in 8.04?
[13:18] <justinnfx> !training
[13:18] <justinnfx> !FUCK ME IN THE ASS
[13:18] <jimmy51_> is digikam included by default in 8.04?
[13:19] <justinnfx> Oohh the bot is cummin on to me
[13:19] <justinnfx> I love it when you talk dirty to me!
[13:19] <bazhang> !ops | justinnfx
[13:21] <jimmy51_> !digikam
[13:21] <jimmy51_> !digicam
[13:21] <bazhang> !info digikam
[13:21] <buntfalke> jussi01: Did you kick him? My client wrote some strange message, and i wonder wether that was a kick or something else new to me
[13:22] <jussi01> buntfalke: itwas a remove and ban.
[13:23] <jussi01> !modes
[13:23] <jimmy51_> thanks bazhang.  is it installed by default in 8.04?
[13:23] <buntfalke> "remove". i see, got to read up on that :-)
[13:23] <bazhang> !info digikam hardy
[13:23] <jimmy51_> ah
[13:23] <bazhang> jimmy51_, optional :)
[13:24] <jimmy51_> that explains why my wife can't find it.  assuming "sudo apt-get install digikam" will install, what's the easiest way to IM a wife to run that command?  anything with "terminal window" will generate a negative reaction :)
[13:24] <jimmy51_> is there a "windows + r" for run dialog or something similar?
[13:25] <bazhang> how about adept package manager?
[13:26] <jimmy51_> doh
[13:26] <jimmy51_> scared her off
[13:26] <jimmy51_> i'll be installing it when i get home :)
[13:26] <mefisto__> jimmy51_: alt-F2
[13:26] <bazhang> :)
[13:27] <jimmy51_> too late :)  ALT F2 is good to know though
[13:27] <jimmy51_> does it work well with sudo?
[13:27] <mefisto__> jimmy51_: but if you're thinking about doing an apt-get install that way, I don't think it will work

[13:40] <BluesKaj> 'Morning
[13:41] <bazhang> hi
[13:42] <cinex> I'm having a slight problem. I have ubuntu installed on a usbdisk. when I boot from it I get a stage.15 read error. it works perfectly in qemu though.
[13:42] <cinex> in the grub console "find /vmlinuz" works but kernel /vmlinuz is not found.
[13:43] <CostaRicanQuaker>  I don't know much about downloading scripts at all but I see on this page http://arun.wordpress.com/2007/01/29/download-youtube-videos-the-linux-way/ that option three is the safest way to do this, so I was hoping someone would be able to help me do this
[13:45] <bazhang> CostaRicanQuaker, dl youtube videos?
[13:45] <michele_> ciao
[13:45] <michele_> !list
[13:45] <bazhang> !it | michele_
[13:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> bazhang, yes, a friend of mine has a channel, he's from canada he doesn't speak spanish, i want ot show his videos (with his permision of course) at the peace center where i work at and i want to subtitle them
[13:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> but for that i need to be able to dl them
[13:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> i asked him and he said htere are programs that enable you to dl vids from youtube
[13:46] <bazhang> CostaRicanQuaker, youtube-dl -t url
[13:46] <bazhang> !info youtube-dl
[13:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> bazhang, do i type that into the konsole?
[13:47] <mefisto__> CostaRicanQuaker: there are firefox extensions that make downloading youtube videos easy too
[13:47] <bazhang> CostaRicanQuaker, url needs to be replaced with url
[13:47] <CostaRicanQuaker> sudo apt-get install youtube-dl ?
[13:47] <bazhang> yes
[13:47] <bazhang> CostaRicanQuaker, miro also dl's youtube video
[13:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> bazhang, it seems like i did it now what do i do?
[13:48] <LeeJunFan> Using Amarok2, I have selected random tracks during playback, but it keeps going sequential. The random menu item is selected, but it's greyed as if not available.
[13:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> what do i do when i want to download a video from youtube?
[13:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> and how do i know where it will be saved, namely what fodler
[13:48] <bazhang> CostaRicanQuaker, to your home folder
[13:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> bazhang, and what do i do to dl a video?
[13:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> this one for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbxZhx2eENo&feature=channel_page
[13:49] <bazhang> CostaRicanQuaker, use konsole
[13:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> how though'
[13:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> what command do i enter?
[13:50] <bazhang> youtube-dl -t (url of vid you want)
[13:50] <mefisto__> CostaRicanQuaker: man youtube-dl   to see all the options, usage, etc
[13:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> what format will it download in?
[13:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> avi mpeg?
[13:50] <bazhang> flv
[13:51] <CostaRicanQuaker> bazhang, can i switch flv to avi or mpeg?
[13:51] <bazhang> CostaRicanQuaker, not much point as it will degrade it to the point of being unwatchable
[13:51] <CostaRicanQuaker> will flv play on a windows computer? that's all they have at the peace center
[13:52] <bazhang> yes
[13:52] <CostaRicanQuaker> what about ffmpeg -i old-file.flv new-file.mpg ?¿
[13:52] <KawaiiGourry666> Hi everyone. If someone is not too busy, I was hoping to get help with Skype capturing my microphone. I've installed a SB Audigy soundcard, since I fried my onboard sound card a couple of months ago. I can capture audio in Audacity but getting no luck with Skype. I've done some searching but just feel like I'm running into dead ends.
[13:52] <mefisto__> bazhang: I convert flv to avi all the time and they are quite watchable.
[13:53] <bazhang> mefisto__, then you are less picky than I :)
[13:53] <CostaRicanQuaker> mefisto__, what about ffmpeg -i old-file.flv new-file.mpg ? is it better to convert to avi or to mpeg?
[13:54] <mefisto__> CostaRicanQuaker: I think it depends on the original flv and how that is encoded
[13:55] <mefisto__> CostaRicanQuaker: look at youtube-dl man page. there is a "format" option (but I don't know how it works or how well it works)
[13:55] <CostaRicanQuaker> thanks
[13:55] <bazhang> np
[13:55] <CostaRicanQuaker> anyone know a good subtitling app
[13:55] <CostaRicanQuaker> i am getting gnome subtitles

[14:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> from the konsole
[14:50] <ghostcube> is this the package name from ubuntu or any howto ?
[14:51] <SlimeyPete> CostaRicanQuaker: sudo apt-get install libmono-i18n2.0-cil
[15:05] <arfee> ok people, I'm going to ask a rediculous question but Ubuntu people are the best, anyone got any idea where i can get help with a mathematical 'excel' problem...openoffice people wont help
[15:13] <slow-motion> hi
[15:16] <compilerwriter> Ladies and gents I had an issue with plasma getting bungled some way or another and the easiest way to solve it was to just dust my rc file and let a new one get automatically generated.  Anyhow I now have some automatic setting that locks the machine when I am inactive.  Nice for security I know, but this my personal box that is kept locked in my apartment and I would rather not have the hassle.  Do I need to edit the rc file
[15:16] <compilerwriter> or is there a setting somewhere in system-> that can be adjusted?  I have yet to find the correct thing.
[15:29] <smookiLinux> hi
[15:31] <cinex> hi smookiLinux

[15:43] <kwerty123> hi
[15:44] <cinex> hi
[15:51] <cuznt> i can not access my 500g ext3 hard drive
[15:51] <cuznt> 4.1.2 32 bit
[15:51] <cinex> is it mounted?
[15:52] <cuznt> yes
[15:52] <cinex> can u access it as root?
[15:52] <cuznt> /media/comby
[15:52] <cuznt> i want to use it to store my music files and have it always accessable
[15:52] <cinex> sudo touch /media/comboy/test; ls -l /media/comby/test
[15:53] <cinex> sudo touch /media/comby/test; ls -l /media/comby/test
[15:54] <cuznt> touch: setting times of `/media/comboy/': No such file or directory
[15:54] <cuznt> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2009-03-23 11:53 /media/comby/te
[15:54] <cinex> u need to change the permissions to allow your user to access the directory
[15:55] <cinex> or you can change the group or just make it world read/writeable
[15:55] <cuznt> by chmod correct?
[15:55] <cinex> ya, or whocn / chgrp
[15:55] <cinex> chown
[15:55] <cuznt> i did chmod and after rebooting it is gone
[15:56] <cinex> sudo chmod cuznt /media/comby
[15:56] <cuznt> but still i can not put any files into it *permission denied
[15:56] <cinex> maybe, the /media directory needs modifying too
[15:57] <p-f_> note to whoever created the default cursors: when something is round and rotating around a centre, people tend to expect that centre to be the main pointing area, not the top left [invisible] corner
[15:59] <kavurt> how to mount an ext4 partition?

[16:03] <cinex> what's /media
[16:04] <cuznt> thats what my dvd cd and hd are listed in
[16:04] <cuznt> be default
[16:04] <cinex> ya i know.
[16:04] <cinex> maybe you should mount it in /opt then you can butcher the file permissions lol
[16:04] <cuznt> i thought you asked
[16:04] <giuseppe__> !list
[16:04] <cuznt> i have no idea how to change the mount
[16:04] <cinex> its a permission problem anyway
[16:05] <cinex> are you mounting it by hand ?
[16:05]  * cuznt does not know about kubuntu|viagara
[16:05] <cuznt> by hand?
[16:05] <cinex> how is it mounting?
[16:05] <cuznt> it is installed in my pc
[16:05] <cinex> automatically without any  input from you ?
[16:05] <cinex> is it a usb drive?
[16:05] <cuznt> no
[16:05] <cuznt> not usb
[16:06] <cinex> did you configure it when you installed kubuntu ?
[16:06] <cuznt> it used to be, but i ripped it out and hard installed it
[16:06] <cuznt> no i did not
[16:06] <cinex> do u know the device name ?
[16:06] <cinex> ie /dev/sdb1
[16:06] <cuznt> because i have 2 kde's on one 150g hard drive and my 500g is for files
[16:07] <cuznt> how do i find that out?
[16:07] <cinex> df -h
[16:07] <compilerwriter> Where does one go to stop the machine from autolocking a session when one is inactive?
[16:07] <cinex> and look for the /media/comby entry

[17:32] <|PaperTiger|> Anyone here dual boot with Windows?
[17:32] <Tm_T> why asking?
[17:34] <|PaperTiger|> fter using Super Grub Disk to reinstall GRUB launcher, Windows now won't launch. Any suggestions?
[17:34] <|PaperTiger|> After*
[17:35] <Tm_T> depends on the error ofcourse (:
[17:35] <jimmy51_> i have about 100 photos from vacation.  what's the best way to distribute them in a digital photo album to both linux and windows users?
[17:35] <Tm_T> jimmy51_: depends, you mean website or some web service?
[17:36] <|PaperTiger|> I have the GRUB booter back, but Windows does nothing
[17:38] <jimmy51_> Tm_T: i was hoping some distributable file
[17:39] <jimmy51_> but i guess on the web would be fine
[17:39] <Tm_T> jimmy51_: hmm, zip works
[17:39] <jimmy51_> Tm_T: no... i mean something the user (wife, grandma, uncle, etc) would open, with thumbnails and the ability to click through them
[17:39] <jimmy51_> with comments per picture
[17:39] <cinex> flickr?
[17:40] <Tm_T> ah, generate webpage from it then, don't ask how though, I remember I did that using Konqueror in the past but dunno about its status these days
[17:41] <jimmy51_> this looks cool, but it's not free:  http://www.fotoplayer.com/v3.1/index.html
[17:42] <josh-l> okay yesterday i installed a bunch of stuff i no longer need, but i cant really remember what everything is, is there anything i can do to find out and uninstall? (i used aptitude)
[17:47] <Slartibartfast> josh-l: you can try to find ou with "history" ....... history |grep aptitiude
[17:47] <Slartibartfast> out*

[17:53] <ScorpKing> jimmy51_: have you tried an openoffice presentation?
[17:53] <jimmy51_> negative
[17:54] <jimmy51_> ScorpKing: is that compatible with ms ppt?
[17:54] <ScorpKing> jimmy51_: no, the other way round but you get openoffice for windows
[17:54] <jimmy51_> hmm
[17:55] <ScorpKing> jimmy51_: it might be a nice way to introduce openoffice to a few windows users ;)
[17:58] <lockphreaker> hi

[19:04] <josh-l> can anyone tell me how to tell kde to use firefox as default browser instead of konqueror please
[19:04] <Ilie> josh-l:  go to system settings
[19:04] <Ilie> and choose default applications
[19:04] <Ilie> you can set your default browser from there
[19:06] <josh-l> Ilie I tried that, it gives me only a space to enter in the browser to use, and i tried "firefox" doesnt seem to work
[19:06] <josh-l> unless maybe i need to restart konversation for it to work
[19:06] <Ilie> type in konsole "whereis firefox"
[19:06] <Ilie> and enter the whole path to firefox
[19:07] <Ilie> something la /usr/bin/firefox if it's installed there
[19:09] <josh-l> ah ok thx

[20:03] <cerecitas> now this might sounds a bit.. but how to watch a windows media audio file on kubuntu?
[20:03] <cinex> anyone know how to convert .eml files (thunderbird) to pdf?
[20:08] <faichele> cinex: If under KDE, and using CUPS, try printing to the "PDF" printer.
[20:10] <hix> cerecitas: sudo apt-get install w32codecs  (w64codecs if u use 64bit)
[20:10] <cerecitas> thanks hix
[20:12] <cinex> faichele: will that actually put it into a pdf file?
[20:13] <cinex> hahaha, faichele that's awsome
[20:17] <Albyyx> urgs
[20:21] <faichele> cinex: The printed files should go in a folder named "PDF" in your home directory.
[20:24] <cinex> now if only opera would print it properly... or gmail would print it with the attachments in-line

[20:49] <idebug> hey, having a problem with fusesmb... i won't find anything at all. using plain configuration. here's what i get when i run fusesmb with debug toggled on. http://pastebin.com/d4427ed00

[20:50] <KomiaPoika> thx
[20:50] <idebug> its verys trange. the only reason it complains that fusesmb.cache is running is that it sees a pid file that fusesmb.cache created (before it died). deleting the pid file has no effect
[21:02] <hi_all> hi
[21:02] <kaddi> !hi |hi_all
[21:03] <hi_all> kaddi:  hi
[21:03] <hi_all> anyone know anything about this error: "Could not obtain a write lock on the cache, falling back to read-only mode" ??
[21:03] <hi_all> I can't update
[21:04] <hi_all> It was after install Kubuntu 8.10
[21:06] <kaddi> hi_all usually that means, that another instance of adept is already running
[21:07] <hi_all> kaddi: thanks... I'll investigate!
[21:10] <Kasm279> ok, i get this error on startup : no command arguments supplied! Usage: kdesudo [-u <runas>] <command> kdesudo will now exit....
[21:10] <Kasm279> ok, i get this error on startup : no command arguments supplied! Usage: kdesudo [-u <runas>] <command> kdesudo will now exit....
[21:10] <Kasm279> oops
[21:10] <Kasm279> ok, i get this error on startup : no command arguments supplied! Usage: kdesudo [-u <runas>] <command> kdesudo will now exit....
[21:10] <Kasm279> aargh
[21:11] <Kasm279> wat do i do?
[21:11] <mefisto__> panic
[21:11] <josh-l> whats the package for qt libs?
[21:12] <Kasm279> it works ok, though....
[21:13] <hi_all> kaddi:  perfect, thanks :)
[21:13] <Kasm279> except for the error....
[21:13] <mefisto__> Kasm279: where do you see the error message? is this after login?
[21:13] <Kasm279> yes
[21:14] <mefisto__> Kasm279: so the message appears in a window?
[21:15] <Kasm279> whoa, that cd is HOT!
[21:15] <Kasm279> yes
[21:23] <mefisto__> Kasm279: what kubuntu version?
[21:23] <Kasm279> 8.10
[21:24] <Kasm279> !you
[21:25] <hi_all> I can see all my volumes from 'File Manager' but I'd like to know where there are they mound (!)
[21:25] <hi_all> *mounted
[21:26] <hi_all> I was a question if someone can give me an idea.......... :)
[21:26] <Kasm279>  /dev/
[21:26] <hi_all> :O  I'll re-check, thanks Kasm279
[21:26] <Dragnslcr> hi_all- if you select one of them, the path should be shown
[21:27] <Dragnslcr> No, /dev is the physical devices, not the mount points
[21:27] <Kasm279> oh
[21:27] <Dragnslcr> If they were mounted automagically, they're probably in /media
[21:27] <yao_ziyuan1> right click the title bar of a dolphin window,
[21:27] <yao_ziyuan1> does the popup menu have shadow?
[21:27] <yao_ziyuan1> it seems all other programs do but dolphin doesn't
[21:28] <hi_all> Dragnslcr:  Let's see,............
[21:29] <hi_all> Yes! NOW they are mounted
[21:29] <hi_all> but they were mounted only after use File Manager.......... is it possible?
[21:30] <hi_all> I didn't see these volumes before in /media
[21:33] <mefisto__> Kasm279: it seems to me that you might be logging out when a program with root privileges is running, and so the session is saved. and when the session is restored on next login, it tries to restart the program that had root privileges, and that confuses kdesudo somehow
[21:34] <Kasm279> ok
[21:34] <Kasm279> it does it evry time i log in
[21:35] <mefisto__> Kasm279: you might want to try turning off session restore, logout, then login and see if the error message still appears
[21:35] <Kasm279> ok
[21:36] <Kasm279> how to turn off session restore?
[21:36] <irvingh30> hello, i need some help, i just downloaded the kubuntu DVD and i?m trying to run the live DVD to see how it works before installing it, is asking me for a username and password and i dont know what to put, can someone help me with that?
[21:36] <kaddi> hi_all if you want the partitions to be mounted automatically you might add them to fstab
[21:36] <mefisto__> Kasm279: systemsettings > advanced tab > session manager. change it to "start with an empty session"
[21:37] <kaddi> yeah, thats called timing -.-
[21:37] <jamesjedimaster> irvingh30: try with ubuntu / ubuntu or user / user
[21:39] <irvingh30> i?ll try that
[21:39] <irvingh30> thanks
[21:39] <Kasm279> yay, i logged out an changed the session type to KDE new
[21:39] <Kasm279> and it worked
[21:39] <Kasm279> thanks, everybody
[21:40] <mefisto__> Kasm279: it would be interesting to see if the error message appears if you switch session restore back on again

[21:47] <mefisto__> sk8terboyv: you might be able to install thru wubi, if you can mount the ISO with a windows app that can mount ISOs
[21:47] <mefisto__> !wubi
[21:48] <sk8terboyv> i understand it, but...did u notice that i sad that i have installed on my hard disk windows 98, did wubi work under windows 98 ?

[21:51] <kaddi> did you at least look at the links given?

[21:52] <sk8terboyv> where can i search for it ?
[21:53] <mefisto__> sk8terboyv: http://wubi-installer.org/ also I don't think you need the ISO if you install with wubi. never tried wubi though, so I'm not sure
[21:53] <sk8terboyv> uffff...
[21:53] <sk8terboyv> thanks anyway...
[21:53] <Kasm279> mefisto_, i didnt turn the session restore off
[21:56] <mefisto__> Kasm279: so you logged out, logged in again, but no error message?
[21:57] <mefisto__> Kasm279: ok, I think I understand. you chose a new session when you logged in, at the login screen

[22:29] <cinex> what password did you set for your username ?
[22:29] <irvingh30> login screen but is just a live CD, is not suppossed to ask for that
[22:29] <cinex> oh
[22:29] <Zengol> Good afternoon everyone.
[22:29] <irvingh30> havent set any
[22:29] <cinex> username: ubuntu
[22:29] <cinex> password blank, i think
[22:29] <josh-l> what are the kde4 dev packages ? i want to compile something
[22:29] <kosmonaut> (not sure blank 2*?)
[22:29] <irvingh30> tried that didnt work
[22:29] <cinex> try password ubuntu
[22:29] <cinex> or
[22:30] <cinex> press cntrl+alt+f1 log into the console.
[22:30] <cinex> alt+f7 to get back to the login screen
[22:30] <irvingh30> let me try that
[22:31] <irvingh30> any other suggestion?, sorry im totally new with this
[22:31] <cinex> well if u can log into the text terminal u can get the desktop loaded that way
[22:32] <kosmonaut> irvingh30: now...please explain...u r starting your liveCD and u need to login? is that right? Or did you log-out for any reason
[22:32] <Zengol> Anyone know of a sound processor that is designed for the Linux OS?
[22:32] <cinex> Zengol: audacity?
[22:32] <josh-l> does anyone know what the kde4 development packages are please? I am trying to compile something
[22:32] <cinex> probably not what your looking for
[22:32] <irvingh30> no, i just tried live to test before installing
[22:32] <halfsane> hey guys, is there a way with kde 4.2 to save dragged and dropped text/pics like in gnome?
[22:33] <kosmonaut> irvingh30: hmm...strange isn' t it?!
[22:33] <cinex> irvingh30: did u manage to log into the console?
[22:33] <irvingh30> nop
[22:33] <cinex> wrong password?
[22:33] <irvingh30> not at all i havent set any user or password
[22:33] <Zengol> cinex: I mean a sound processor as in, plug your guitar jack into the front of your PC and have the ability to add sound effect's and record your music.
[22:34] <cinex> Zengol: beats me im afraid
[22:34] <kosmonaut> how about *nothing* for user and nothing for *password*?
[22:34] <cinex> iNiku: what username/password did you try?
[22:34] <kosmonaut> forget about those **
[22:35] <mefisto__> Zengol: creox is one that I know of
[22:36] <kaddi> how can i change the location of a given widget in the taskbar?
[22:36] <cinex> kaddi: kde4 or 3 ?
[22:36] <kaddi> 4
[22:37] <cinex> click on the little cashew in the corner of the tasbar, the you can just drag them around
[22:37] <Zengol> mefisto__: Ahh, thank you man, that's exactly what i am looking for.
[22:37] <cinex> u will need to unlock the widgeets first though
[22:37] <mefisto__> Zengol: rock on :)
[22:37] <kaddi> it's magic. now it works :D thx cinex
[22:37] <cinex> nice
[22:37] <Zengol> mefisto__: How good is the compatibility with the system, such as crashing and bad feedback?
[22:38] <kaddi> josh-I just installed both: fancytasks and stasks on intrepid 32bit with kde 4.2 and both work like a charm.
[22:39] <Zengol> mefisto__: Well, nvm, i'll just have to give it a go and hope it goes well compared to other OS's that i'd rather not mention.....
[22:39] <mefisto__> Zengol: I've never used it. it got installed with the ubuntustudio-audio metapackage. it probably uses jack audio, so depends on how well jack is set up
[22:39] <Zengol> Yes, jack audio.
[22:40] <SeanTater> When I suspend my computer, my monitor turns off, but that's all. I can't turn it back on, but I know my computer is still on because it takes time to turn off after I press the power button. In short: can I suspend and leave my monitor on, to see what's going on?
[22:40] <Zengol> mefisto__: I hope it work's well with an active bass guitar.
[22:41] <Zengol> mefisto__: I'll have to give it a go here after awhile when i get my speaker's set up.
[22:42] <josh-l> if anyone feels like it I would adore to have a 64bit package of these: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Stasks+for+intrepid+KDE+4.2.1?content=100753
[22:42] <josh-l> and http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Fancytasks+for+intrepid+KDE+4.2.1?content=100754
[22:43] <mefisto__> Zengol: you might want to install the linux-rt kernel for audio
[22:44] <p-f__> Is there a hidden "make the monitor *really* turn off" option somewhere? Mine just blanks out, which is still too bright when trying to sleep.
[22:44] <p-f__> I've got it set to power off after 10 minutes, but it doesn't actually do anything
[22:44] <cinex> p-f__: you been into system settings and checked the power control?
[22:44] <cinex> oh
[22:45] <cinex> there is always the power switch :s
[22:47] <Dragnslcr> p-f__- using System Settings -> Display -> Power Management?
[22:48] <Dragnslcr> Actually, System Settings -> Display -> Power Control
[22:48] <p-f__> Dragnslcr: using Search->Power, because I wasn't actually expecting pwoer settings to be under display, but yes :p
[22:49] <p-f__> aha, it works now
[22:49] <Zengol> mefisto__: How do i go about getting the rt kernel?
[22:49] <p-f__> it seems as though the solution was to change that setting from 10 minutes to 2, apply, change it to 9, apply, change to 1 and apply again
[22:52] <mefisto__> Zengol: install linux-rt   or you could install ubuntustudio-audio if you want to install a whole bunch of audio apps and tools too. the rt kernel will come with ubuntustudio
[22:55] <jpedroza> evening all, I am running into an issue where my laptop reports that the battery has reached critical level and will shut down. the problem is that the battery is fully charged. I have looked into several older bugs, and they were supposedly fixed in Intrepid, but I am still having the issue.
[22:56] <mefisto__> jpedroza: and does it then shut down? or is it just confused and lying to you about the battery?
[22:56] <jpedroza> mefisto__: It promptly shuts down.
[22:57] <jpedroza> mefisto__: this is with a new battery that has been charging overnight.
[22:57] <lockphreaker> hi
[22:58] <mefisto__> jpedroza: that's not good
[22:58] <jpedroza> mefisto__: I know.
[22:58] <jpedroza> mefisto__: Booting to Windows and I have no issue
[22:58] <jpedroza> mefisto__: only happens in Linux
[22:59] <mefisto__> jpedroza: just kubuntu? or have you tried other DEs or other distros and have the same problem?
[23:00] <jpedroza> only tried kubuntu
[23:00] <lockphreaker> spanish?
[23:01] <jpedroza> lockphreaker: try #kubuntu-es
[23:01] <lockphreaker> tank s  j pedroza
[23:04] <jpedroza> mefisto__: For a while I had Jaunty on this same laptop, as a test laptop, and it worked fine. Since I reverted to Intrepid (clean Install) it is having this issue.
[23:05] <mefisto__> jpedroza: ok, jaunty uses powerdevil for power management. I don't think intrepid does, but I think powerdevil is in intrepid repos, so it's installable
[23:05] <mefisto__> !powerdevil
[23:05] <mefisto__> !info powerdevil
[23:06] <jpedroza> mefisto__: I tried to install Powerdevil, but it fails
[23:06] <mefisto__> jpedroza: fails to install?
[23:07] <inteliwasp> i have a intel core2 quad core chip, but when i try the 64bit version cd, it boots me to a busybox shell, can i only use x86 only?
[23:07] <jpedroza> mefisto__: looks like it needs libplasma2 and that needs kde-workspace-data 4.1.4 but 4.2.1a is installed
[23:08] <jpedroza> inteliwasp: Is the quad core from intel x86 or x86_64?
[23:08] <jpedroza> inteliwasp: I am not familliar with that chip
[23:08] <inteliwasp> jpedroza, how can i tell?
[23:08] <inteliwasp> er...
[23:08] <mefisto__> jpedroza: you might be able to install the jaunty package then. search for it at packages.ubuntu.com
[23:08] <carpii> all quad cores are 64 bit afaik
[23:08] <inteliwasp> let me wili it
[23:09] <inteliwasp> wiki*
[23:09] <jpedroza> carpii: appears to be
[23:12] <inteliwasp> i didn't see anything wrong in dmesg...
[23:13] <xavierg2003_> hello
[23:13]  * xavierg2003_ yawns
[23:14] <andrey_> !
[23:21] <jpedroza> ok, so my battery now shows that it is not present in /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state even though I am running on the battery right now.
[23:25] <XPS_M1330> where can I get the public keys for the ppa sources?
