| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: ask your question, if somebody is here who can help you will get an answer | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok Ok Thx :) | 00:00 |
| XKiLL3R | -> I Can't Change Resolution or Refresh rate ... | 00:00 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: you should give more precisions, like version, your graphic card, etc | 00:01 |
| XKiLL3R | KRAndRTry only have 800X600 and 61 refresh rate | 00:01 |
| XKiLL3R | Version : Kubuntu 8.10 , VGA = HD 2600 , Monitor , CRT: acer AC711 | 00:02 |
| XKiLL3R | X64 Version | 00:02 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: hm, did it work on the previous version? | 00:02 |
| XKiLL3R | this is first time to install kubuntu on this pc | 00:03 |
| XKiLL3R | just used ubuntu years ago @ old pc | 00:03 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok i am really confused | 00:03 |
| Mamarok | did it work on another Linux distro? | 00:04 |
| XKiLL3R | ubuntu and kubuntu gives same prob. | 00:04 |
| XKiLL3R | both r 8.10 ... both r x64 | 00:04 |
| Mamarok | ok, which driver do you use? | 00:05 |
| Mamarok | the fglrx or the radeon? | 00:05 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok: nw nothig cuze i have try to install 1 b4 , and every thing gone | 00:05 |
| XKiLL3R | after robot it gives me a blank screen | 00:06 |
| XKiLL3R | *restart | 00:06 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: well, you still can login in recovery mode and check the drivers | 00:06 |
| XKiLL3R | wiz safe mode too | 00:06 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok: it would'nt worked last time | 00:06 |
| Mamarok | blank screen in recovery mode? | 00:06 |
| XKiLL3R | yea | 00:06 |
| XKiLL3R | both recovery and normal | 00:06 |
| XKiLL3R | nw i got a fresh boot install | 00:07 |
| XKiLL3R | so i dun wanna lose it :( | 00:07 |
| Mamarok | ouch, that sounds like a hardware problem, you mean it doesn't boot correctly? | 00:07 |
| Mamarok | recovery mode means no X server, just plain command line | 00:07 |
| XKiLL3R | everything goes gd till the kubuntu logo and the loading bar | 00:07 |
| slerder | HEy guys. Im tryring to reinstall ubuntu but for some reason I cant boot from my only dvd-drive i have which is USB. I even disabled booting from hard drives, set usb-cdrom to first boot device... went directly to the boot menu and selected usb-cdrom and nothing it simply wont boot. what can i do ? Thanks. Ps i have a gigabyte EP45-UD3R | 00:07 |
| XKiLL3R | after that blank screen | 00:07 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: did you try booting with a live CD? | 00:08 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok: yea it's only work in safe mode | 00:08 |
| slerder | mamarok ofcourse, i even tried a whole bunch of other boot cds and none work | 00:08 |
| Mamarok | slerder: sry, was talking to XKiLL3R :) | 00:09 |
| XKiLL3R | but nw it's ok i am in normal mode but wiz 800X600 and 61 refresh rate | 00:09 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: that graphic card should work with a better resolution though, you should try changing the driver | 00:09 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok could u help me about that ? | 00:10 |
| XKiLL3R | command or something | 00:10 |
| XKiLL3R | cuze wiz 800X600 i can't install ati driver from hd cuze i can't click on buttons :S | 00:10 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: you normally should be able to shift the screen with the mouse by click+drag | 00:11 |
| XKiLL3R | :D i know but it's too tall to drag | 00:11 |
| XKiLL3R | so i can't c :S | 00:11 |
| Mamarok | anyway, else you can reboot in recovery mode (normally the second option in your Grub menu) | 00:12 |
| XKiLL3R | without 1024X768 | 00:12 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok: then ... | 00:12 |
| Mamarok | and use the command line with network, so you can use sudo apt-get install to install the other driver | 00:12 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok: ok give me a command 4 installing latest ati driver from net | 00:13 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: it depends on your repositories, you can check which driver with the command: | 00:14 |
| Mamarok | apt-cache search radeon (or fglrx) | 00:14 |
| Mamarok | it will show you the name of the package to install | 00:14 |
| XKiLL3R | apt-cache search radeon | 00:15 |
| Mamarok | XKiLL3R: I would love to help you more, but right now is a bad time, I will have to go now... | 00:15 |
| XKiLL3R | OMG | 00:15 |
| XKiLL3R | Mamarok: Ok ThX Alot M8 | 00:15 |
| XKiLL3R | I will try to play wiz this | 00:15 |

| borderlight | ive been trying to update kubuntu 7.04 to 8.10, but when i fetch updates from adept, i dont receive any notification telling me there is a version update. i know im running 7.04, could it be a problem with my repositories?? | 02:20 |
| goofey | borderlight: I don;t know the answer, but I do know that ubuntu recommends updating only 1 version at a time (ie, only from 7.04 to 7.10 to 8.04 to 8.10 rather than 7.04 to 8.10 directly) | 02:22 |
| jaimico | buenas oches, quisiera saber quien me puede ayudar a instalar el driver atheros para wlan en kubuntu | 02:24 |

| katie | ah, okay | 02:42 |
| katie | I think I broke something by downloading something with synaptic...it uninstalled one of my programs (quanta), and now I can't install it again-- I get the message Depends: libxi6 (>= 2:1.1.3-1ubuntu1) but 2:1.1.3-1 is to be installed | 02:43 |
| katie | I googled that and found few hits, and can't uninstall libxi6-- it looks really important | 02:44 |
| katie | i tried -f, and build-dep | 02:44 |

| jtisme | katie what did you install with synaptic | 02:51 |
| katie | I'm not sure; I tried to download "secret maryo chronicles" yesterday (: and some other games-- but the installs mostly didn't work | 02:51 |
| Daskreech | katie: it downloaded but didn't install? | 02:52 |
| katie | I might have tried dist-upgrade | 02:52 |
| katie | I think so | 02:52 |
| Daskreech | ok can you pastebin sudo apt-get upgrade ? | 02:53 |
| katie | no, I'm not sure I did dist-upgrade | 02:53 |
| Daskreech | !paste | 02:53 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 02:53 |
| katie | I really don't know what I did ): | 02:53 |
| katie | ah okay | 02:53 |
| Daskreech | That's ok | 02:53 |
| katie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/141112/ | 02:54 |
| katie | (thanks ubottu) | 02:56 |
| katie | wait, let me try something, I'm going to reboot and come right back | 02:58 |
| katie | okay | 03:01 |
| katie | that didn't work | 03:01 |
| katie | what does this "libxi6 (>= 2:1.1.3-1ubuntu1) but 2:1.1.3-1 is to be installed" mean, anyway? | 03:02 |
| jtisme | katie i gather it means that the system wants 2:1.1.3-1ubuntu1 not 2:1.1.3-1 | 03:04 |
| katie | so they're different? how do I get the ubuntu one? I try apt-get and it says libxi6 is already the newest | 03:04 |
| jtisme | katie i have never seen the msg these packages have been kept back | 03:04 |
| katie | what do you mean? is that an older version that it wants? | 03:05 |
| katie | (no hits on google) | 03:05 |
| jtisme | katie, the 1ubuntu1 is definitely in the ubuntu stream and i suspect the other is not | 03:06 |
| katie | what is the ubuntu stream? how do I get this different version without uninstalling the one I've got first? | 03:06 |
| jtisme | katie hold on a sec i am looking at something | 03:08 |
| katie | okay cool | 03:08 |
| jtisme | katie, what version displays when you execute dpkg -l libxi6 | 03:09 |
| katie | 2:1.1.3-1 | 03:10 |
| jtisme | katie, i am in slightly uncharted waters here but in the past when i encountered those type of conflicts i uninstalled the offending package and reinstalled it | 03:11 |
| katie | yeah i thought about that, except this package is used for everything | 03:11 |
| jtisme | making sure i got the ubuntu package | 03:11 |
| katie | it would uninstall all my major programs | 03:11 |
| katie | 1GB worth of stuff, I'm not even sure my computer would be functional for me | 03:12 |
| jtisme | yeah it is the x extension stuff | 03:12 |
| jtisme | katie, i dont know how to force the ubuntu package to be installed perhaps someone else here does and we would both learn something | 03:14 |
| katie | is there no way I can make this thing use the wrong package? | 03:15 |
| katie | other than install build-dep and install -f? | 03:15 |
| jtisme | katie, i cant answer that question | 03:16 |
| Daskreech | katie: what does sudo apt-get remove libxi6 say? | 03:16 |
| Daskreech | if it asks to proceed do not let it | 03:16 |
| katie | it give me a really big list of nearly everything i can think of, including stuff that looks like KDE | 03:17 |
| katie | saying that all of that will be removed with the operation | 03:17 |
| Daskreech | katie: ok what does apt-cache policy libxi6 say | 03:19 |
| Daskreech | pastebin it | 03:19 |
| katie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/141122/ | 03:19 |
| Daskreech | and what are you trying to install? | 03:20 |
| katie | quanta | 03:20 |
| katie | i'm also having big freezing problems with firefox, and wondering if this has anything to do with it | 03:21 |
| Daskreech | katie: apt-cache depends quanta | 03:23 |
| katie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/141123/ | 03:23 |
| Daskreech | sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-vga | 03:25 |
| katie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/141125/ | 03:26 |
| Daskreech | woooah | 03:27 |
| Daskreech | apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-core | 03:27 |
| katie | that didn't sound good.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/141126/ | 03:27 |
| Daskreech | hrrm | 03:32 |
| Daskreech | seems like you are pulling packages from two different repos | 03:32 |
| Daskreech | apt-cache policy quanta | 03:32 |
| katie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/141127/ -- that might make sense, for a while I had both synaptic and adept and when I used synaptic (the only time I did) it screwed something up with my windows | 03:33 |
| katie | so I've avoided synaptic-- i told you wrong earlier, I've been using adept, not synaptic | 03:34 |
| Daskreech | katie: the hell? | 03:35 |
| Daskreech | what version of the distro are you using? | 03:35 |
| katie | hardy | 03:35 |
| Daskreech | So why is Quanta coming from the Ibex repos ? | 03:35 |
| katie | i'm a linux newbie, i really don't even know what that means | 03:35 |
| katie | i had quanta for a while, and something uninstalled it automatically | 03:36 |
| Daskreech | katie it's like one program thinking it's on windows XP when you are on windows 98 | 03:36 |
| Daskreech | paste bin the file /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:36 |
| katie | any idea how i fix it? | 03:36 |

| Daskreech | Tell me about the last three lines | 03:39 |
| katie | is that bad? | 03:39 |
| Daskreech | No just amusing | 03:39 |
| katie | oh, I bet I added the intrepid line this weekend, actually | 03:39 |
| katie | I should have known better on that one | 03:39 |
| katie | what's wrong with the other two lines? | 03:40 |
| Daskreech | Nothing | 03:40 |
| cristian | i have a disk with two partitions... C: NTSF and D: NTSF and kubuntu is installed like an aplication in windows... in disck D: | 03:40 |

| Daskreech | cristian: You mean NTFS | 03:40 |
| cristian | with kde3.5 and kubuntu 8.4 dolphin showed me the two partitions... | 03:40 |
| katie | oh the other one, i was just following instructions to get banshee to work for my ipod | 03:41 |
| Daskreech | katie: comment out the last line and update and you will be fine | 03:41 |
| cristian | but now with kde 4 and 8.10... only the C: disc | 03:41 |
| katie | i don't really know what i'm doing, i just google things and try them | 03:41 |
| cristian | what can i do... other thing that a mount? | 03:41 |
| Daskreech | Would you like me to explain ? | 03:41 |
| katie | to me? (if so, yes) | 03:41 |

| Daskreech | katie: ok Ubuntu has many repositories | 03:44 |
| katie | okay | 03:44 |
| Daskreech | main restricted universe multiverse | 03:44 |
| katie | those are types, i guess | 03:44 |
| katie | so i must have told it to go to "intrepid universe" | 03:44 |
| Daskreech | main are packages that Canonical will support and they have the source code for them | 03:44 |
| katie | okay | 03:45 |
| Daskreech | restricted is ones they support and they don't have the source code | 03:45 |
| Daskreech | mostly drivers etc | 03:45 |
| Daskreech | universe are contributed and maintained by people not associated with canonical | 03:45 |
| Daskreech | and the source is available | 03:45 |
| katie | okay | 03:45 |
| Daskreech | multiverse is of course not done by canonical and no source is available | 03:46 |
| Daskreech | that's not fully true | 03:46 |
| Daskreech | source is available for things in multiverse | 03:46 |
| Daskreech | but some of them are not legal in certain countries | 03:46 |
| Daskreech | (read broadly as the US) | 03:46 |
| katie | hmmm lol | 03:47 |
| Daskreech | so those are the basic repositories from Ubuntu | 03:47 |
| Daskreech | you added some more like banshee | 03:47 |
| Daskreech | however Ubuntu collects all these packages togetehr as a snapshot in time | 03:47 |
| Daskreech | that is a release | 03:47 |
| Daskreech | You are on the release 8.04 codenamed hardy | 03:48 |
| e-jat | can someone help me on this -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/141134/ | 03:48 |
| Daskreech | for sanity reasons Ubuntu has what is called a "freeze" for releases | 03:48 |
| katie | okay, and I told it to go to an intrepid repository... which was bad because it conflicted with the older hardy version? | 03:48 |
| Daskreech | when that happens whatever version of the packages stays | 03:49 |
| katie | okay.. | 03:49 |
| Daskreech | when you want updated ones beyond security fixes you go to a new release | 03:49 |
| Daskreech | like 8.10 codenamed intrepid | 03:49 |
| Daskreech | Right so you added a intrepid universe package which needs packages from Main | 03:50 |
| Daskreech | so it called main but main was from hardy so the packages were older | 03:50 |
| katie | ah | 03:50 |
| Daskreech | It knew it needed a package at least X old for it to work and yours was older so it stopped | 03:50 |
| === Guest80127 is now known as Minotauro | ||
| Daskreech | nothing could move unti that was resolved | 03:51 |
| Daskreech | now if you had a intrepid main and intrepid universe it would have installed | 03:51 |
| katie | can you do that? | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | e-jat: what version of Qt ? | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | well yes | 03:52 |
| katie | if i started my system with hardy, can i upgrade to intrepid without wiping the system? | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | but as you saw mixing relelases is painful | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | katie: Oh yes | 03:52 |
| katie | right, that wasn't good | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | that's how most people do it | 03:52 |
| katie | really? how do you do it? | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | !upgrade | 03:53 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 03:53 |
| katie | don't upgrade? | 03:53 |
| Daskreech | katie: If you like hardy stay on it | 03:53 |
| katie | i do, just curious since there are a couple of new distros now | 03:53 |
| Daskreech | ibex is KDE4 which a lot of people don't like | 03:53 |
| Daskreech | Ubuntu supports two types of upgrades | 03:54 |
| Daskreech | version +1 | 03:54 |
| Daskreech | so from hardy to intrepid | 03:54 |
| remu | Hello everyone. I normally use Ubuntu, but I just did a fresh install of Kubuntu. Under ubuntu I used to control my volume using the PCM slider, however, now when I use the PCM slider it doesn't make any difference. When I had kubuntu-desktop installed under my regular ubuntu install, the PCM slider did change the audio. | 03:54 |
| Daskreech | but not say hardy to jaunty | 03:54 |
| Daskreech | which is the next version after intrepid | 03:54 |
| remu | Does anyone know how I can rectify this problem? | 03:55 |
| katie | gotcha, okay | 03:55 |
| Daskreech | remu: try front | 03:55 |
| Daskreech | for some people that seems to do what PCM does | 03:55 |
| Daskreech | katie: you can also do LTS to LTS | 03:55 |
| rosco_y | does anyone know how to configure more than one desktop in the Display Manager? | 03:55 |
| Daskreech | rosco_y: right click and set it in the settings | 03:56 |
| katie | lts? | 03:56 |
| remu | Daskreech: well, Master, Front, and Headphones do change the audio, but they change it logarithmically (same behaviour in both Ubuntu and Kubuntu), while under Ubuntu PCM changed the volume in a linear fashion. | 03:56 |
| Daskreech | katie: Hardy is an LTS release so you can wait 4 releases then do a direct upgrade | 03:56 |
| Daskreech | !lts | 03:56 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. | 03:56 |
| Daskreech | katie: ^^^ | 03:56 |
| rosco_y | Daskreech: Right-click what? | 03:56 |
| katie | ah okay, cool | 03:56 |
| Daskreech | rosco_y: the desktop pager on the panel | 03:57 |
| rosco_y | ok, I'll give it a whirl | 03:57 |
| Daskreech | katie: basically for people who hate doing upgrades every few months | 03:57 |
| Daskreech | Some distros have what is called a rolling release which is cool if you want upgrades all the time :) | 03:57 |
| katie | i see, okay cool | 03:57 |
| Daskreech | Yeah it is pretty neat | 03:58 |
| rosco_y | I guess my problem is in the ATI Catalyst Control Center: I'm trying to enable Xinerama | 03:58 |
| katie | that problem probably didn't have anything to do with firefox freezes then... is there any well-known problem with kubuntu + firefox? | 03:58 |
| rosco_y | it's telling me I need to configure more than one desktop, I have four desktops enabled in the pager... | 03:58 |
| e-jat | Daskreech: 4.5.0 | 03:59 |
| e-jat | im in Jaunty beta | 03:59 |
| rosco_y | It doesn't seem like xinerama would care about pager settings...am I missing something? | 03:59 |
| Daskreech | katie: what kind of freezes | 03:59 |
| e-jat | or should i reinstall kopete using package? | 03:59 |
| Daskreech | e-jat: #ubuntu+1 | 03:59 |
| e-jat | Daskreech: thanks | 03:59 |
| Daskreech | rosco_y: Oh thought you meant virtual desktops | 03:59 |
| Daskreech | !xinerama | rosco_y | 03:59 |
| katie | that's the problem-- i haven't figured out what triggers the freezes, so it doesn't seem like enough information to google yet | 03:59 |
| ubottu | rosco_y: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead | 03:59 |
| rosco_y | Daskreech: Yes, the message is misleading | 04:00 |
| Daskreech | katie: like you have to kill the application freeze? | 04:00 |
| remu | Under ubuntu I used to control my volume using the PCM slider, however, now when I use the PCM slider it doesn't make any difference. When I had kubuntu-desktop installed under my regular ubuntu install, the PCM slider did change the audio. | 04:00 |
| katie | no, it freezes for around 5-10 seconds and comes back | 04:00 |
| rosco_y | I had it working with my old mobo and cpu, but after upgrading to amd 64, it's not the same anymore | 04:01 |
| katie | it always does it on the google home page when trying to search | 04:01 |
| rosco_y | oh, I know why | 04:01 |
| Daskreech | katie: Ah might be writing out cache | 04:01 |
| katie | so i wonder if it has something to do with javascript or something | 04:01 |
| rosco_y | I changed video drivers, but I didn't modify the X config file | 04:01 |
| katie | "writing out" cache? meaning caching pages? | 04:01 |
| Daskreech | Mozilla did a patch to stop that in 3.1 which I don't think that Hardy has | 04:01 |
| Daskreech | yes | 04:02 |
| katie | should i try turning cache down to nothing or something? | 04:02 |
| Daskreech | I forget do a google on firefox 3 ext3 | 04:02 |

| tsimpson | CrypTom: it should be created by dpkg, but I'm not 100% on that | 06:59 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as gera | ||
| CrypTom | tsimpson: the package update-notifier-common must be installed, a package needing a reboot calls /usr/share/update-notifier/update-notify-reboot-required which creates the mentioned file | 07:24 |
| tsimpson | so the postinst calls that | 07:24 |

| eagles0513875 | Riesh: shes new to linux so she might not know the old way | 11:01 |
| Riesh | The old way is with /etc/network/interfaces | 11:01 |

| julia_ex-XP-k | right, i'll try the old way. :) back in a sec | 11:02 |

| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: then under that "netmask 255.255.255.0" | 11:13 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | being the IP for this CP, right? becouse I use other PCs in the same network, therefor I guess I should just use a free IP | 11:13 |
| Riesh | Yes you are right | 11:14 |
| Riesh | address is the IP you want to assign for this comp. | 11:14 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | ok, done. :) I don't know exactley waht I'm doing but you guys seem to know | 11:15 |
| eagles0513875 | Riesh: what do you use to connect to wifi connections instead of knetwork | 11:15 |
| Riesh | under the netmask line you add another line: "gateway 10.10.10.1 | 11:15 |
| Riesh | eagles0513875: wait a moment :-) | 11:15 |
| eagles0513875 | ok | 11:16 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | roger | 11:16 |

| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: OK .. now you you can write the changes to the file ... | 11:17 |
| eagles0513875 | Riesh: do you use knetwork manager | 11:17 |
| Riesh | the ^ for an option mean use CTRL and that letter | 11:17 |
| Martiini | Hey, Does anyone know what command run gnome system settings, please ?? | 11:18 |
| Riesh | eagles0513875: no i don't use ... on my laptop i have network-manager ... and on the desktop i use static IP without wireless | 11:18 |

| ubottu | Martiini: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 11:18 |
| eagles0513875 | Riesh: im tryign to connect to mine with knetworkmanager and it doesnt even pick it up | 11:19 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | ok, sorry bur i don't know how. I see the ^0 at the bottom for saving, but I dont know how to actually use this command... :( | 11:19 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: CTRL O is ... write to file | 11:19 |
| Riesh | use control o | 11:19 |
| Riesh | then control X | 11:20 |
| Martiini | eagles0513875 just type it when you know .. i dont really support people who waste time on typing triggers on irc | 11:20 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | ah, right. ok, done. but control X doesent seem to do anything.. | 11:20 |
| Riesh | no capital X | 11:21 |
| Riesh | just x | 11:21 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | still, nothing seems to happen. | 11:22 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | what is it supposed to do? | 11:22 |
| Riesh | close this program and give you back the shel prompt | 11:22 |
| Riesh | shell | 11:22 |
| Riesh | it says Exit | 11:23 |

| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: can it be you have not a englisch keyboard layout ? | 11:24 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | hm. I just klickt it close with the mouse and opend the shell again. | 11:24 |
| ibrar | What is the command to pull kernel source for kubuntu 8.10 | 11:24 |
| ibrar | apt-get install ??? | 11:24 |
| eagles0513875 | ibrar: apt-get source | 11:24 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | yeah, i use a german keyboard. makes a difference? | 11:24 |
| SlimeyPete | apt-get source <package name> | 11:25 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: yes ... many keys are then different :-) | 11:25 |
| ibrar | apt-get source kernel ? | 11:25 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | but control and x are the same, no? | 11:26 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: that's why you woiuld probably get betetr support from people in ubuntu-de ..where maybe people are with the same keyboard settings .. anyway ... you are back in the shell? | 11:26 |
| SlimeyPete | ibrar: apt-get source linux-generic will give you the source of the generic kernel, I think | 11:27 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: not really know where the X is on a german keyboard ... on mine it is between the Z and C | 11:27 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | I like it here. :) yes, back in the shell, feeling very geeky. | 11:27 |
| ibrar | SimeyPete: I need the kernel currently installed with my kubuntu | 11:27 |
| s4crifice | if i write apt-get install <package>, it writes me that the package couldn't be found | 11:28 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: so not you need to remove the network-manager packages ... and the dhclient packages ... i believe ibrar was here yesterday to tell us the dhclient packages als oneed to be removed | 11:28 |
| SlimeyPete | s4crifice: you have to put the pakcage name in place of <package> | 11:28 |
| SlimeyPete | ibrar: well, what kernel is currently installed? Generic? Server? Virtual? | 11:29 |
| s4crifice | i did... | 11:29 |
| SlimeyPete | s4crifice: what package name did you use? | 11:29 |
| SlimeyPete | and did you use sudo? | 11:29 |
| SlimeyPete | sudo apt-get install thepackage | 11:29 |
| s4crifice | apt-get install hplip-3.9.2.tar.gz | 11:29 |
| SlimeyPete | that's not a package | 11:29 |
| SlimeyPete | !apt | s4crifice | 11:29 |
| ubottu | s4crifice: 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) | 11:29 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | that sounds easy. :) where can I find 'em? | 11:29 |
| SlimeyPete | apt isn't for installing tar.gz files | 11:29 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: "sudo apt-get --purge remove network-manager" | 11:30 |
| SlimeyPete | apt is for automatically downloading & installing software which is in the Ubuntu repositories | 11:30 |
| ibrar | I have installed default kabuntu | 11:30 |
| ibrar | I got it | 11:30 |
| SlimeyPete | ibrar: then you'll have the generic kernel. | 11:30 |
| ibrar | sudo apt-get install linux-source | 11:30 |
| Riesh | ibrar ? | 11:30 |
| ibrar | sI think its generic | 11:31 |
| s4crifice | ok wait... | 11:31 |

| s4crifice | ok so, how i can install the tar.gz (archive)? unpack the archiv, then? | 11:33 |
| ibrar | ok let me read | 11:33 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: try to see if you can "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" | 11:34 |
| s4crifice | linux is one big unknown for me, but i have to learn with it.... | 11:34 |
| Riesh | julia_ex-XP-k: see if you can "ping 10.10.10.1" after that | 11:35 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | ok, back in a sec | 11:35 |
| ibrar | julia_ex-XP-k: You have to unintsall network-manager and dhcp client | 11:35 |
| ibrar | julia_ex-XP-k: Otherwise your setting will not work | 11:35 |
| Riesh | thanx ibrar | 11:35 |
| * Riesh off to eat something | 11:36 | |
| s4crifice | please... tar.gz - HOW? | 11:36 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | did uninstall network amanger, but says it cant find dhclient | 11:36 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | and it says "couldn't find command" with sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 11:37 |
| ibrar | julia_ex-XP-k: sudo apt-get install dhcp3-client | 11:38 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | ok, done. says its already up2date | 11:39 |
| ibrar | julia_ex-XP-k: Whats your /etc/network/interface says | 11:40 |
| ibrar | julia_ex-XP-k: sudo apt-get remove dhcp3-client | 11:40 |
| glick | hey do i need to install something extra to play .mov files? | 11:40 |
| eagles0513875 | Riesh: i need to talk to ya when i get back about the wifi i need lunch atm | 11:40 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | i guess just one space between remove and dhcp3, right? | 11:41 |
| julia_ex-XP-k | worked | 11:41 |
| glick | what do i need to play .mov files? | 11:41 |

| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 12:01 |
| hiena | what should i do with this file?? | 12:02 |
| Mamarok | hiena: it's to check if the iso you donwloaded is identical to the one on the server | 12:03 |
| Mamarok | usually k3b tests it for you | 12:03 |
| Mamarok | when starting to burn the CD/DVD | 12:03 |
| hiena | Mamarok do i need to open the md5 file with k3b? | 12:04 |
| Mamarok | hiena: no, the burning software calculates the checksum of the ISO file in the beginning | 12:05 |
| Mamarok | the md5 file from the server is a simple text file you can open with kate or vim | 12:05 |
| hiena | so i just burn the iso whats all ?? and the k3b will check the md5 file on his own | 12:06 |
| Mamarok | and there you see the checksum you should have if your ISO file is ok | 12:06 |
| Mamarok | you can see the calculated number in the output when k3b starts, just compare with the one in the *.md5 file | 12:06 |
| Mamarok | if the numers are identical, your ISO image is ok | 12:07 |
| Mamarok | umbers* | 12:07 |
| hiena | ahammm | 12:07 |
| Mamarok | numbers*, sorry | 12:07 |
| hiena | they are a lot | 12:07 |
| hiena | very a lot :D | 12:07 |
| hiena | but since i have the md5 must be the correct one :) | 12:08 |

| picketfence | b43-fwcutter didn't install properly, and the website wasn't much help | 13:17 |
| picketfence | And now I have another question. | 13:18 |
| picketfence | Adept updater wants me to install a linux-restricted-modules generic thingy, along with other linux-image generic thingy. | 13:18 |
| picketfence | Should I? | 13:18 |
| picketfence | Oh, and linux-headers, tool | 13:19 |
| picketfence | too. | 13:19 |
| DennisBagley | morning all - does anyone have 2 mins to answer somq questions on radeonhd ? | 13:20 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: yes install restricted modules linux image and headers | 13:20 |
| eagles0513875 | thats an updated kernel picketfence | 13:21 |
| picketfence | Ok. thx | 13:21 |
| eagles0513875 | i have used b43-fwcutter no problems | 13:21 |
| picketfence | Would that one allow the Broadcom? | 13:21 |
| picketfence | :eagles0513875:I don't know much, but I can share my limited experience. What's your question? | 13:22 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: use it if ur broadcom wifi card is a bcm43xx model to check in bash type lspci and if it is install it using the hardware driver manager under system that will find any restricted drivers from your wifi card to video card | 13:22 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: im having issues connecting to my wifi network here at home | 13:22 |
| eagles0513875 | knetwork manager is fudged | 13:22 |
| picketfence | :eagles:Join the club. ;-) How far can you get with it? | 13:23 |
| eagles0513875 | nowhere | 13:23 |
| eagles0513875 | im on wired | 13:23 |
| eagles0513875 | im working on asking in some other channels im in | 13:23 |
| eagles0513875 | its not a problem with the driver i know that for sure its a problem with knetwork manager | 13:23 |
| picketfence | Oooh, sorry. The radeon I used at least had minimal connection. | 13:23 |
| eagles0513875 | radeon = video | 13:24 |

| === jackson_ is now known as jackson | ||
| picketfence | Sorry about that. Had to reboot. | 13:27 |
| picketfence | Where was I? | 13:27 |
| eagles0513875 | you should be able to connect to your wifi network but need to find another network manager to use | 13:29 |
| eagles0513875 | !wifi | 13:29 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 13:29 |
| eagles0513875 | !network | 13:29 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: i would look in adept for a network manager alternative | 13:30 |
| picketfence | I'll do that after the updates are done. | 13:30 |
| picketfence | I was hoping the updater would help as well. | 13:30 |
| eagles0513875 | im as updated as they come im on jaunty and still nothing | 13:31 |
| picketfence | How can I tell which one I'm on? | 13:31 |
| picketfence | All I know is Ubuntu 8.10 | 13:32 |
| picketfence | Running KDE 9.04 Beta with either KDE 3.5.10 or 4.1 | 13:32 |
| picketfence | I'm all confused about that. | 13:32 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: it comes with 4.2 | 13:33 |
| picketfence | On my loadup splash screen it has KDE4.1 | 13:34 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: are you on intrepid | 13:35 |
| eagles0513875 | or the beta of jaunty | 13:35 |
| === anw is now known as anw2 | ||
| picketfence | I'm not sure. How do I find out? | 13:35 |
| eagles0513875 | if in adept you enable the pre released repo and unsupported stuff and source and all that you be upgraded to 4.2 | 13:35 |
| eagles0513875 | !version | picketfence | 13:35 |
| ubottu | picketfence: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 13:35 |
| picketfence | Intrepid | 13:36 |
| picketfence | Ubuntu 8.10 | 13:36 |
| anw2 | how can I make system to poweroff (and not prompting) after I press shutdown button (on keyboard) ... | 13:37 |
| cinex | anw2 its in the settings panel | 13:38 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: you will be on 4.1 but you can get 4.2 | 13:38 |
| eagles0513875 | in adept you have to enable the pre relase repos and what not | 13:38 |
| picketfence | But isn't that risky? | 13:39 |
| fireup | picketfence you said you are on9.04?? | 13:39 |
| cinex | aw2 are you using kde3 ? | 13:40 |
| cinex | anw2: are u using kde3? | 13:40 |
| anw2 | yop | cinex | 13:40 |
| picketfence | I thought I had downloaded that one. Let me check to be sure. | 13:40 |
| fireup | lol | 13:40 |
| cinex | in system settings click the advanced tabs and then go to session manager | 13:40 |
| cinex | you can turn of the prompt there | 13:40 |
| cinex | untick confirm logout and untick offer shutdown options | 13:41 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: you can upgrade via internet its on the kubuntu website on how to do that | 13:41 |
| anw2 | now it shows window with only "Log out" button | cinex | 13:41 |
| cinex | unticke confirm logout | 13:42 |
| cinex | ? | 13:42 |
| picketfence | Oh, never mind. I guess I'm running Kubuntu 8.10 | 13:42 |
| picketfence | I thought I had gotten the beta. | 13:42 |
| anw2 | unticked: confirm logout, unticked: offer s/d options | 13:42 |
| cinex | and there is a defualt shutdown option needs to be turn of computer (for a guess) | 13:42 |
| fireup | picketfence you want to change your kde?? | 13:42 |
| fireup | sudo apt-get update | 13:43 |
| picketfence | No, not really. my laptop works just fine. | 13:43 |
| fireup | then sudo apt-get kde4 | 13:43 |
| picketfence | My friend's computer, however, doesn't want to connect to wireless. | 13:43 |
| picketfence | That's the one we are trying to fix., | 13:43 |
| eagles0513875 | mine doesnt connect either | 13:43 |
| cinex | mine does | 13:43 |
| eagles0513875 | knetwork manager is bugged like no other | 13:43 |
| eagles0513875 | not only does the wifi not work it doesnt keep a static ip | 13:43 |
| picketfence | I can't get b43-fwcutter properly | 13:43 |
| fireup | pppoe ppl pppoe the best internet for now :) | 13:44 |
| cinex | u can use the gnome network manager though.... has better 3g support i found | 13:44 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex 3g O_O | 13:44 |
| cinex | the gnome one auto sets it up | 13:44 |
| cinex | i was super shocked | 13:44 |
| cinex | it was awesome | 13:44 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex: it didnt do anything for me | 13:44 |

| eagles0513875 | cinex: it didnt connect to my wifi :( | 13:45 |
| cinex | eagles0513875: do u have an odd wifi card? | 13:45 |
| fireup | anw_reallyaway lol | 13:45 |
| anw_reallyaway | default shutdown options disappear when I untick those option | 13:45 |
| fireup | ok what the f*** is happening to ubuntu | 13:46 |
| fireup | its ony getting worst | 13:46 |
| fireup | only | 13:46 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex: this laptop is a broadcom and in it it has funnily enough the same model card as as my 4 yr old laptop a bcm4311 wifi card | 13:46 |
| fireup | i have used 7.10 since 2months ago | 13:46 |
| eagles0513875 | i know my network though is using wpa2 | 13:46 |
| cinex | anw_reallyaway: it should make you computer just do whatever you want when you push the power button. you may need to edit acpi settings too (ther eis a file somewhere) for laptops i think | 13:46 |
| fireup | 8.04 MAXIMUM 8.10 9.04 BADD | 13:46 |
| picketfence | Gotcha. ;-) | 13:47 |
| fireup | the cover i think | 13:47 |
| cinex | using the b43 driver eagles0513875 ? | 13:47 |
| eagles0513875 | ya i used the hard ware devices that detects restricted drivers | 13:47 |
| eagles0513875 | i installed the proprietary wifi driver | 13:47 |
| eagles0513875 | there was the driver that picketfence mention should i use that instead | 13:48 |
| cinex | try seeing if aircrack-ng can use it :P | 13:48 |

| picketfence | The really strange part of this whole adventure is I had used Kubuntu on his computer before and it connected with little problem. Now it seems to just be plain stubborn. | 13:48 |
| eagles0513875 | y crack my own wifi when i know the key | 13:48 |
| cinex | eagles0513875: i dunno, but if you can, then the card works; right?> | 13:49 |
| Dillizar | picketfence and the version you were using the last time was??? | 13:49 |
| eagles0513875 | i know i could connect on my old laptop | 13:49 |
| eagles0513875 | using knetwork | 13:49 |
| picketfence | Kubuntu 8.10, same as now | 13:49 |
| picketfence | It's the only ISO I downloaded and am using | 13:50 |
| picketfence | .......for now. | 13:50 |
| picketfence | Broadcom is just being a pain, because several distros of Linux (Slackware 12.2 included) are refusing to use Broadcom. | 13:51 |
| picketfence | But on my laptop, with Atheros, all of them work just fine. | 13:51 |
| picketfence | ...with the exception of Slackware, but that's beside the point. | 13:51 |

| picketfence | I really wish I could chuck his computer into the river | 13:53 |
| Dillizar | #network | 13:53 |
| anw2 | is there any difference between poweroffing with "$ shutdown -P now" and KDE's poweroff button ?? | 13:53 |
| Dillizar | #networks | 13:53 |
| picketfence | yeah. No help there. | 13:53 |
| Dillizar | hmm | 13:53 |
| Dillizar | you have a wifi | 13:53 |
| Dillizar | and it doesnt work | 13:54 |
| Dillizar | right | 13:54 |
| picketfence | It seems that every suggestion I am given comes up short of working properly. | 13:54 |
| picketfence | I just thought of something. Could it be that the Broadcom card itself went bad? | 13:54 |
| Riesh | picketfence: did you add cafuego's repos ? | 13:54 |
| anw2 | i mean, if I comment out all KDE's actions in /acpi/powerbtn.sh and leave only shutdown command, would it be system-harmless ? | 13:54 |
| picketfence | :Riesh: No, simply because I have no clue where they are. | 13:55 |
| Dillizar | picketfence as i have been here for few hours | 13:55 |
| Riesh | http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/intrepid-cafuego | 13:55 |
| Dillizar | i didnt understand the problem | 13:55 |
| Riesh | add that to your source list | 13:55 |
| picketfence | :Riesh: I'll do that. | 13:56 |
| Riesh | and then apt-get update and apt-get install broadcom | 13:56 |
| picketfence | Dillzar: His wireless card worked before, then as I switched from Winblows to Ubuntu to Kubuntu, it got harder and harder to use the Broadcom | 13:56 |

| Riesh | and then add the URLs which are described on that page | 13:58 |

| Dillizar | Guest33665 what? one the folder icon you have + - ?? | 13:59 |
| Riesh | or any other editor | 13:59 |
| Riesh | but with sudo | 13:59 |
| Guest33665 | @Dillizar, in the left upper corner are symbols. "+" and "-" if i click with the mouse, i can switch them | 13:59 |
| picketfence | :Riesh: The webpage warns not to add all, but be selective so Kubuntu doesn't break. Your thoughts on that? | 14:00 |
| Guest33665 | for example in Konqueror | 14:00 |
| Dillizar | gimme a screen shot Guest33665 | 14:00 |
| Riesh | do not install all the packages from that page ... you only ned broadcom | 14:00 |
| Riesh | need | 14:00 |

| cinex | sudo modprobe b43; sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter | 14:28 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: lol wait i might be onto something | 14:28 |
| Riesh | eagles0513875: i think you need to get the firmware and cut out of that a piece you need to use with the kernel module bw43 | 14:28 |
| cinex | should be all u need | 14:28 |
| eagles0513875 | i already have the firmware installed | 14:29 |
| eagles0513875 | the issue now becomes with connecting to a network | 14:29 |
| eagles0513875 | knetworkmanager is fudged up the backside | 14:29 |
| cinex | when u install fw-cutter it should ask you if u want to download and extract the driver firmware: say yes | 14:30 |
| cinex | if it doesn't ask | 14:30 |
| cinex | try ls -l /lib/firmware | 14:30 |
| cinex | and see if u walready have it | 14:30 |
| cinex | try ls -l /lib/firmware/b43 | 14:30 |
| BluesKaj | eagles0513875 , what router are you running ? | 14:30 |
| cinex | does it connect without encryption ? | 14:30 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex: it did | 14:30 |
| cinex | are u using wep ? | 14:30 |
| eagles0513875 | BluesKaj: linksys | 14:30 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex: wpa2 | 14:31 |
| cinex | is the essid hidden ? | 14:31 |
| picketfence | I certainly hope so. Whatcha got? | 14:31 |
| picketfence | :Riesh: Are you available? I have a question about what happened when I did what you suggested. | 14:31 |
| Riesh | Yes ... what happened ? | 14:31 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex: it finds it fine on windows and mac | 14:31 |
| cinex | you CAN connect manually without knetworkmanager | 14:31 |
| cinex | is it hidden ? | 14:31 |
| eagles0513875 | no | 14:31 |
| eagles0513875 | how can i manually connect with out it | 14:31 |
| cinex | sudo iwlist scan | 14:32 |
| BluesKaj | eagles0513875 , check you router's frequency , make sure it's not set to auto select , normal setting is usually channel6 on most LANs | 14:32 |
| eagles0513875 | BluesKaj: that i know its not | 14:32 |
| cinex | u manually connect, i believe with the iwconfig command | 14:32 |
| cinex | like, iwconfig wlan0 essid "name" | 14:32 |
| cinex | you will have to look into that | 14:32 |
| cinex | it gets alittle complicated | 14:32 |

| eagles0513875 | how can i swithc it on | 14:34 |
| eagles0513875 | ty Riesh | 14:34 |
| cinex | eagles0513875: some have actual physical switches on the laptop (to turn off the antenna | 14:35 |
| cinex | ) | 14:35 |
| eagles0513875 | there is but i cant tell if it is on or off its staying one color for me | 14:35 |
| cinex | is it finding it with a scan ? | 14:35 |
| cinex | sudo iwlist scan | 14:35 |
| eagles0513875 | it saying wlan0 is down | 14:35 |

| jpedroza | Good morning everyone. I am still having an issue where my laptop, an MSI 1719, thinks that the batter has reached critical level and shuts down, even though there are more than 3 hours of battery time left. I have tried everything I have found in Google, and can't seem to pin the issue down. | 14:43 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex: im back | 14:43 |
| cinex | jpedroza: it is possible to tell kubuntu not to do anything when it thinks the battery is flat | 14:44 |
| cinex | and it will run untill it dies | 14:44 |
| jpedroza | cinex: I have set it to do nothing, it still gives me the message and powers down. | 14:44 |
| Riesh | But picketfence, i think other can be more helpfull, because they have the same hardware or had the same issues | 14:44 |
| eagles0513875 | jpedroza: are you running intrepid or the jaunty beta | 14:45 |
| cinex | is there a setting int he bios? where did you set it ? | 14:45 |

| cinex | jpedroza: try booting into a text only enviroment and see if it still shuts down after 5 mins | 14:47 |
| cinex | oh | 14:47 |
| cinex | so your battery is being disconnected? | 14:47 |
| picketfence | :Riesh: Working... | 14:47 |
| jpedroza | cinex: It shows as being removed, but it is still present and powering the laptop. That is what is so confusing. | 14:47 |
| cinex | jpedroza: have you tried an oldeer version of kubuntu ? | 14:48 |
| Riesh | But seems cinex and eagles0513875know more about this specific hardware ... and how to make it work | 14:48 |

| jpedroza | cinex: I tried Jaunty on the same laptop, in the alpha 3 stage, and the issue cleared up. I think it might be a kernel issue, as there was a similar bug in Hardy | 14:49 |
| cinex | Riesh: b43-fwcutter deals with all that. | 14:49 |
| picketfence | :Riesh: that link is what showed up on my screen. | 14:49 |

| picketfence | !!!!!!!!!!!! | 15:04 |
| picketfence | :cinex: You've got to be kidding..... | 15:05 |
| cinex | that's what ndiswrapper is. it uses the windows driver | 15:05 |
| eagles0513875 | cinex: warning i found that ndiswrapper has been split into 3 packages on kubuntu | 15:05 |
| eagles0513875 | !ndiswrapper | 15:05 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 15:05 |
| eagles0513875 | !info ndiswrapper | 15:05 |

| picketfence | :eagles: Do you know what name? | 15:06 |
| eagles0513875 | picketfence: ndiswrapper-common and ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 | 15:07 |
| eagles0513875 | those 2 actually | 15:07 |
| picketfence | Stupid question time: I would have to download the windows driver before installing ndiswrapper or whatever, right? | 15:07 |
| picketfence | :eagles: Hey, those look familiar. I think I already installed those. Let me check | 15:07 |
| eagles0513875 | those make up what used to be the 1 package called ndiswrapper | 15:07 |
| EagleScreen | hello | 15:08 |
| EagleScreen | there is koversation for KDE4 | 15:08 |
| EagleScreen | :D | 15:08 |
| rosco_y | can you migrate 32 bit ubuntu to 64 bits? | 15:08 |
| picketfence | What's the other installer other than Adept? | 15:09 |
| rosco_y | would anyone advise against going to 64 bit ubuntu? | 15:09 |
| picketfence | Starts with an "s" | 15:09 |
| picketfence | Synaptic? | 15:09 |
| RurouniJones | rosco_y: Yes | 15:09 |
| RurouniJones | Unless you have busted the 32bit RAM limit | 15:09 |
| EagleScreen | picketfence you have synaptic and Kpackagekit in jaunty | 15:10 |
| rosco_y | RurouniJones: yes, it can be done, or yes you advise against it | 15:10 |
| rosco_y | not even close | 15:10 |
| RurouniJones | I don't see any reason to go 64bit. | 15:10 |
| cinex | http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2008/10/how-to-setup-broadcom-wireless-bcm4312.html | 15:10 |
| EagleScreen | 64 bit increase around 30% CPU speed | 15:10 |
| EagleScreen | but consume around 30% more of RAM | 15:10 |
| picketfence | I've used Synaptic before, but now I can't find it. | 15:11 |
| EagleScreen | picketfence if you use kubuntu, I recommend you "sudo aptitude -R installa synaptic" to install it | 15:11 |
| EagleScreen | "sudo aptitude -R install synaptic" | 15:11 |
| picketfence | I just realized that synaptic is on my laptop, not his. | 15:11 |
| RurouniJones | rosco_y: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=368607 | 15:12 |
| picketfence | Installing it now. | 15:13 |
| RurouniJones | 30% CPU speed increase is pretty wrong | 15:13 |
| picketfence | Back to the Winblows driver...I have to download it before installing ndiswrapper, right? | 15:13 |
| RurouniJones | in a few applications you will see a speed increase. Read the guide and have a look fer yourself. | 15:13 |
| EagleScreen | I mean CPU is faster in 30% with 64bit | 15:14 |
| EagleScreen | sorry me English is poor | 15:14 |
| cinex | picketfence: you just need to get the inf file out | 15:14 |
| cinex | hold on, ill check something | 15:14 |
| RurouniJones | EagleScreen: Still wrong | 15:14 |
| cinex | picketfence: you will need the driver. You need to cabextract it | 15:14 |
| cinex | see the link i pasted above | 15:15 |
| RurouniJones | The CPU is faster in some areas on 64bit. Things like video processing and stuff that requires lots and lots of maths and is designed to take advantage. | 15:15 |
| picketfence | :cinex: Ok, working on it. Oh, and there are 3 packages...ndisgrk; ndiswrapper-utils-1.9; ndiswrapper-common | 15:15 |
| RurouniJones | but saying "it is 30% faster" as a general statement is just wrong in my opinion. | 15:15 |
| cinex | rosco_y: 64bit (from what i hear) has touble with things like flash | 15:15 |
| EagleScreen | yes, I know you have reason | 15:15 |
| RurouniJones | cinex: That is reasonably fixed now | 15:15 |
| cinex | k | 15:16 |
| RurouniJones | You shouldn't have problems with firefox / flash on 64bit, I haven'ted tested myself though. | 15:16 |
| eagles0513875 | RurouniJones: im having issues with flash | 15:16 |
| eagles0513875 | havent installed teh 64bit version yet though | 15:16 |
| picketfence | :cinex: I just follow the instructions on that webpage and it should work? | 15:17 |
| cinex | i dunno, they seem somewhat overkill. | 15:17 |
| RurouniJones | eagles0513875: I think flash player 10 was the one with 64 bit compatibility on linux. Again I am not totally familiar with the process | 15:17 |
| cinex | install ndiswrapper and get the driver, install cabextract too | 15:17 |
| cinex | ill walk you through it | 15:17 |
| picketfence | :cinex: Great, I'm all ears. or eyes. or whatever | 15:18 |
| cinex | tell when you have everything | 15:18 |
| eagles0513875 | RurouniJones: someone told me earlier its still beta | 15:18 |
| picketfence | :cinex: you mean like the driver and stuff? | 15:18 |
| cinex | yeah | 15:18 |
| picketfence | 'k. brb | 15:18 |
| cinex | from the laptop website? | 15:18 |
| cinex | or the cd | 15:18 |
| RurouniJones | eagles0513875: Righto. | 15:19 |
| rosco_y | shoot, so I just made a huge mistake "upgrading" to 64 bit hardware? | 15:19 |
| rosco_y | That's a downer | 15:19 |
| rosco_y | I should have spent the extra cash on a nicer 32 bit system | 15:19 |
| cinex | nah | 15:20 |
| RurouniJones | Nah | 15:20 |
| RurouniJones | Pretty much all CPU hardware is 64 bit now | 15:20 |
| eagles0513875 | rosco_y: all hardware is both 64 32 | 15:20 |
| RurouniJones | Er no | 15:20 |
| RurouniJones | you have 32bit and 64bit CPUs | 15:20 |
| RurouniJones | 64bit can do both but 32bit can't do 64bit. | 15:20 |
| rosco_y | eagles0513875: but I just blew my piddling savings on a 64 bit proc | 15:20 |

| eagles0513875 | if i want to i can use a 32 bit os | 15:22 |
| Dragnslcr | eagles0513875- you mean it's a 64-bit processor | 15:22 |

| eagles0513875 | rosco_y: im on 64bit kubuntu and i love it | 15:23 |
| RurouniJones | rosco_y: If it ain't broke, don't fix it. | 15:23 |

| RurouniJones | rosco_y: Separate question. So give us the details. Hardware? Drivers? Can you see the hardware? What does kmix show? | 15:25 |
| rosco_y | my alsamixer shows Realtec ALC888 | 15:26 |

| eagles0513875 | i just need the kernel header source to in order to compile the kernel from source | 15:41 |
| eagles0513875 | trappist: lol nice one | 15:41 |
| eagles0513875 | !kernel | 15:45 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 15:45 |
| alepot | |stages | 15:46 |
| alepot | !stages | 15:47 |
| ubottu | The Ubuntu Kernel gets updated in stages. If you have the updated kernel, but do not have the corresponding restricted modules, you may be leaving yourself with no X when you reboot. If you have compiled binary versions of your video driver, eg from the nVidia site, you will need to recompile them for the new kernel. This is normal, and not a bug. | 15:47 |

| Haza | http://imagebin.ca/view/bT0xyN.html <--- thoughts? :D | 16:32 |
| LjL | Haza: no idea off hand, but there's an I/O error in there - is that from a live CD or a HD install? | 16:36 |
| Haza | LjL: HD install | 16:36 |
| LjL | Haza: i would use "smartmontools" to make sure your HD isn't faulty | 16:37 |
| Haza | LjL: Perfect advice! Thank you | 16:37 |
| LjL | Haza: you can use a live cd to install smartmontools if you're unable to do it from your ubuntu install | 16:37 |
| DF5JT | Hi everyone. | 16:38 |
| DF5JT | I did a fresh Jaunty beta install on my brand new T60p. It only recognizes one CPU. | 16:38 |
| Haza | LjL: Its okay, after shaking the tower like a British nanny shakes a baby i was able to get the OS to boot from the HD :) | 16:38 |

| reddragon2005 | :cinex: The b44 module didn't work at all, so I reverted to b43. | 16:39 |
| DF5JT | It's an SMP kernel and on anothe T60 both CPU cores work. Any ideas? | 16:39 |
| Haza | LjL: lol, no. But i suspect it might be (if not the OS) the SATA cables | 16:39 |
| LjL | Haza: ah, i was starting to really worry for you if you had meant it literally :) | 16:40 |
| LjL | Haza: yes, it might be the cables if it's not the HD itself | 16:40 |
| Haza | I just wanted to run it past you lot here to see if you could say "yeah thats an OS problem, reinstall" | 16:40 |
| LjL | Haza, it *might* an OS problem, i don't really know | 16:40 |
| LjL | Haza: it's just that "I/O error" that would make me check for hardware problems first | 16:40 |
| LjL | Haza: besides, i can't see the whole error in the photo, but it says "sda, sector ....." - i guess it goes on to say a sector couldn't be read? | 16:41 |
| Haza | LjL: When i goto reboot i will take a better picture | 16:41 |
| Haza | actually... there were some other funky errors i never got a shot of | 16:41 |
| LjL | Haza: well, if smartmontools doesn't find anything special, run a memtest too (from the GRUB menu) - bad RAM might sometimes give the symptoms of a bad HD, i believe | 16:42 |
| reddragon2005 | Does anyone know if eagles0513875 fixed his/her problem with Broadcom? | 16:42 |

| raphink | ayram: why do you need aMSN? | 16:55 |
| * stepnem doesn't even know what than aMSN is | 16:55 | |
| raphink | stepnem: aMSN is a MSN/Windows Live client | 16:56 |
| raphink | it was great some years ago when no other client (pidgin or kopete) supported the MSN protocol well | 16:56 |
| * stepnem could guess that, yeah | 16:56 | |
| raphink | especially for the voice/webcam | 16:56 |
| raphink | but now I don't really see the point | 16:56 |
| ayram | thank you... i'm sorry i don't know very much english, i'll go to IRC spanish ;) | 16:56 |
| raphink | and it doesn't really integrate in KDE, too | 16:56 |
| raphink | ayram: no problema | 16:56 |
| ayram | ¬¬ aMSN y a enviroment more "cool" | 16:57 |

| ayram | xD | 16:57 |
| raphink | ayram: did you try kopete? | 16:57 |
| ayram | no friendly | 16:57 |
| raphink | pidgin is a gtk program, it's more fitted for GNOME | 16:57 |
| raphink | kopete is not friendly? | 16:57 |
| ayram | no, pidgin | 16:57 |
| raphink | ah | 16:58 |
| raphink | :) | 16:58 |
| ayram | kopete is in KDE? but like aMSN it's... | 16:58 |
| ayram | a MSN xD | 16:58 |
| ayram | but in linux xD | 16:58 |
| ayram | :P | 16:58 |
| raphink | kopete is the default IM client in KDE | 16:58 |
| ayram | i have GNOME :( | 16:59 |
| raphink | and it does MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, AIM, IRC, Jabber, Gadu-gadu, and more | 16:59 |
| stepnem | lol | 16:59 |
| raphink | ayram: why are you asking questions on #kubuntu if you use GNOME ? ;) | 16:59 |
| stepnem | !GNOME | 16:59 |
| ubottu | GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu. To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. | 16:59 |
| ayram | buuuuuut.... ¬¬ ... | 16:59 |
| ayram | xD this is a good idea! | 17:00 |
| raphink | ayram: this channel is about kubuntu, so everybody here use KDE (I would expect) | 17:00 |
| raphink | ayram: have you tried KDE btw ? ;) | 17:00 |
| ayram | i want KDE enviroment, but i install the Ubuntu in my computer... | 17:00 |

| raphink | sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 17:00 |

| loganWHD | i have tried a few things | 18:42 |
| loganWHD | but nothing works | 18:42 |
| loganWHD | just gives me a blank screen | 18:42 |
| drbobb | hello, is ktorrent's upnp plugin nonfunctional, or is something wrong with my router? | 18:43 |
| alepot | drbobb: suspect it's your router | 18:46 |
| loganWHD | anyone? | 18:46 |
| genii | julia_ex-xp: Look up the dependencies of it at packages.ubuntu.com and download those as well (on some machine which does have internet). Then copy them all into the /var/cache/apt/archives dir of the box without internet. Should be able to install by command line with something like: sudo apt-get install resolvconf | 18:46 |
| drbobb | alepot: does upnp work for you? | 18:46 |
| alepot | yes | 18:46 |
| alepot | or it did, when I went through a router that had it enabled | 18:47 |
| genii | loganWHD: Tried putting as a kernel load option: vga ? | 18:47 |
| badr | hallo all | 18:47 |
| drbobb | you are sure your ktorrent gets to see inbound connections? | 18:47 |
| alepot | yes | 18:47 |
| loganWHD | genii, no and i dont know how to do that? | 18:47 |
| alepot | and nmap from outside shows the ports as open | 18:47 |
| drbobb | it used to work for me a couple of upgrades back, too | 18:47 |
| drbobb | my router hasn't changed since then, while ktorrent has | 18:48 |
| rogal | Anybody know a hex calc for kde ? | 18:48 |
| drbobb | any idea how to diagnose what's failing? | 18:48 |
| genii | loganWHD: Hit ESC when grub begins, edit the line which has at the end something like "splash" and add after that: vga then enter and boot from the changed line | 18:48 |
| alepot | drbobb: no idea, sorry. | 18:48 |
| alepot | drbobb: not firewalled locally is it? | 18:49 |
| drbobb | nope | 18:49 |

| claudio_ | or cpp and c++ files? | 18:53 |
| alepot | yes, although youy'd be better using eclips or netbeans for that, perhaps | 18:53 |
| alepot | multi-language | 18:54 |
| claudio_ | yes | 18:54 |
| claudio_ | now i am using netbeans ide 6.0 | 18:54 |
| claudio_ | but do you know how can i use net beans for c++ files? | 18:54 |
| alepot | http://www.kdevelop.org/ | 18:55 |
| claudio_ | thx | 18:55 |
| claudio_ | last question | 18:55 |
| alepot | I believe netbeans knows how to edit C files, and I'm sure there is some way to tell the build system how to make them | 18:56 |
| claudio_ | can i use netbeans for c++ files? | 18:56 |
| === drbobb_ is now known as drbobb | ||

| stefanlsd | Riddell: heys. That tripod patch is inline as no current patch systems exists in the package. I can put one in if you would like, but the package should be sync'd from debian next time, and we have no other changes, as they are also going through the same transition. | 19:04 |
| claudio_ | does anyone what is the iwconfig? | 19:04 |
| stefanlsd | claudio_: wireless config | 19:05 |
| claudio_ | yes | 19:05 |

| Donald | i asked several other people and they all told me to go to this site | 19:35 |
| alepot | kjelle: you may need to logout and login for it to take effect? | 19:35 |
| kjelle | alepot: a reboot did not help | 19:36 |
| alepot | ok - check the permissions on your .kde folder sudo chown -R $USER.$USER $USER/.kde | 19:37 |
| kjelle | alepot: how was I able to enable it, but not disable it? :) | 19:38 |
| kjelle | checking perms | 19:38 |
| alepot | kjelle: I'm not at all sure why it happens but I've seen similar things a couple of times here over the last few year | 19:39 |
| alepot | I've always put it down to finger trouble :) | 19:39 |
| CrummyGummy | Hiya, I've upgraded kubuntu but 4.2 isn't installed. Any ideas why? It worked flawlessly on my laptop. | 19:39 |
| kjelle | alepot: permissions are ok | 19:40 |
| kjelle | it is seemingly impossible for me to use this GUI with these silly explosions :) | 19:40 |
| alepot | kjelle: I'm out of ideas, sorry | 19:40 |
| kjelle | alepot: ty | 19:41 |
| demmon | how can turn on HIDE on my kasbar | 19:41 |
| alepot | kjelle: you could try logging in as root in a recovery console and moving .kde out of the way? At lleast something would be useable then | 19:41 |
| kjelle | kjelle@kjelle-ubuntu:~/.kde/share/config$ cat kwinrc | grep -i explo | 19:41 |

| UncleScrooge | jtholmes: Yeah, it seems to be a Intel-only problem. Driver related, according to the forums. Ah well... I just wanted a decent 4.2 based desktop to mess around with, and I've been having nothing but bad luck with various distros all morning. | 19:47 |
| alepot | kjelle: it's quite a steep learning curve at first but well worth the effot | 19:47 |
| alepot | *effort | 19:47 |
| jtholmes | UncleScrooge, fortunately i have installed many jaunty's and not a video problem one so far | 19:47 |
| kjelle | alepot: not when there are bugs | 19:48 |
| kjelle | alepot: i hate bugs ;) | 19:48 |
| White_Pelican | ah but do you have any nvidia cards jtholmes ? hehe | 19:48 |
| UncleScrooge | jtholmes: Well, it's more of a video acceleration problem. It's usable, but not completely. Ah well, I'll poke around and see if I can't find another distro that's got it working. Maybe Arch or something. | 19:48 |
| alepot | That's why I stay clear of bleeding edge - remember ubuntu is based on debian testing... | 19:48 |

| UncleScrooge | alepot: Yeah, I certainly wouldn't go with most new distro releases for a stable system, but at this point I'm just messing around in hopes of taking a closer look at the new KDE features. | 19:50 |
| jtholmes | That said i dont do esoteric things like two heads, shoot um up games etc. so perhaps i bypass those problems | 19:50 |
| alepot | UncleScrooge: then expect breakaghe :) | 19:51 |
| UncleScrooge | alepot: I do... can't say I'm happy about when it happens, whether expected or not. :) | 19:51 |
| sithlord48 | well tonight i will be installing JJ on my amd/ati box..... | 19:51 |

| jtholmes | I always keep this machine on stable and test on others | 19:51 |
| Abyss_ | noob alert here | 19:51 |
| sithlord48 | i have a stable one too just its a server currently w/ xp on it ... moving to ubuntu (yes gnome) very soon... | 19:52 |
| Abyss_ | I have Ubuntu 8.10 working nicely on me Dell D820, should i try Kubuntu over this?? | 19:52 |
| alepot | UncleScrooge: I use PXE boot on my testing box so can play with various flavours, but only ever run stable on "production" machines | 19:52 |
| sithlord48 | abyss you will not need to reinstall the os .. just install the kubuntu-desktop package | 19:53 |
| Abyss_ | hmm u see, i did warn u lol, previously yes i have done one or the other installs | 19:53 |
| UncleScrooge | alepot: My main machine's a Mac, I just happen to have a spare that I'm messing around with. Linux isn't my main OS nowadays. | 19:53 |

| lovre | most of my applications cant remember their maximised status and allways run in normal window, even tho i maximise them all the time (for example dolphin and kmail). can i change this behaviour? | 19:55 |
| Abyss_ | another mistake i made when i installed this was to put this on first, but i want winxp on too, reckon i should reformat, put on winxp, then on the spare half of the partition put this back on, or can i do it with this installed, ie resize this ext3 partition then go from there with a boot loader? | 19:55 |
| * CrummyGummy is stumped | 19:55 | |
| StR|Sangreal | hello... pls how can i download and extract music from youtube? | 19:56 |
| sithlord48 | @ abyss_ partition your disk 3 parts one for xp one for (k)ubuntu one for swap.... then install Xp first | 19:56 |
| noaXess | jtholmes: yes.. cpu cooler, fan | 19:56 |
| Abyss_ | yes thats how i would do it sithlord48 - but i put ubuntu 8.10 on first ! oh well its not too hard to put this back on, | 19:56 |
| puddle | Hi all | 19:57 |
| jtholmes | Abyss_, or use a VM and install xp there | 19:57 |
| sithlord48 | good point i have had much success w/ xp in virtualbox | 19:57 |

| puddle | i just install irrsi onto my computer cant find it on my desktop? where do i look looked everywhere? | 19:57 |
| Abyss_ | i looked at the virtualisation, but its not worth the overheads for what i need it for, dual boot would be fine,, | 19:57 |
| jtholmes | noaXess, probably is but i let it control automatically what mb or pc type | 19:57 |

| Abyss_ | yeah put the shitty OS on first eh | 19:59 |
| jtholmes | and free | 19:59 |
| flacoste | any idea how do we configure the application by mime types | 19:59 |
| UncleScrooge | You know, this may be a small annoyance, but I really wish they'd get rid of the damned K-prefix that's in front of so many KDE programs. They seem headed that way with the 4.x series, and I really wish they'd hurry it up. | 19:59 |
| flacoste | this control panel seems gone | 19:59 |
| Abyss_ | yup i love vmware, i got esx 3.5 on 2x hp d530's | 19:59 |

| UncleScrooge | jtholmes: Yes, from the start. And it's always been amazingly annoying. Gnome used to do it too, but stopped. Apple still does it with the i-Apps, which I consider just as annoying. | 20:02 |

| jtholmes | Abyss_, wow you had one that fast, how about 1200 baud | 20:04 |
| UncleScrooge | jtholmes: If only it would work. Sometimes I really wonder what the devs behind the KDE UI revamp in 4.x (as opposed to the backend overhaul) were thinking. | 20:04 |
| Abyss_ | lol yeah fast eh 90's man when i was old enough to play | 20:05 |
| jtholmes | Abyss_, i worked for AT&T (not the current one) and punch taped my programs in fortran on a tty machine | 20:05 |
| Abyss_ | fortran eh very lowlevel,,pascal was about as close i ever got | 20:05 |
| sithlord48 | for me C. is a low as i go | 20:05 |
| Abyss_ | Low C isnt very nice,,, | 20:06 |
| rosco_y | My first modem was a 1200 baud from the military--it had a dial-back security feature | 20:06 |
| alepot | I never got near really serious hardware. I started programming 6502s | 20:06 |
| jtholmes | Abyss_, fortran was weird, then i fell in love with C | 20:06 |

| rosco_y | lol | 20:07 |
| jtholmes | my group at at&t had the alpha copy of C++ from stoustrap (he worked for ATT labs) | 20:07 |
| sithlord48 | honk; | 20:07 |
| alepot | jtholmes: cool. I loved overloading | 20:07 |
| jtholmes | but enough of the good ole' days the moderator will get us | 20:08 |
| alepot | took ages to get my head around the object-oriented approach after procedural | 20:08 |
| sithlord48 | recursion.... and pointers... | 20:08 |
| jtholmes | i had problems with OO also but finally it clicked | 20:08 |
| sithlord48 | then the best was a friend of mine trying to sort a list by %1 | 20:09 |
| rosco_y | I really enjoyed C and C++, well, I enjoyed FORTRAN, BASIC and Pascal too--I'm a programmer at heart, but now I really enjoy C# | 20:09 |
| Abyss_ | i was just boring my gf with the good ole days,,yes, she nearly had me too | 20:09 |
| flacoste | anyone knows what is the new kde4 app to manage mime types association? | 20:09 |
| joejc | how do i get my dual monitors to work more like 1? | 20:09 |
| rosco_y | flacoste: I asked that question once...and there was an answer--but I don't know what it was | 20:10 |
| sithlord48 | i belive you can manage your mime types in system settings -> file types.. (or default apps) | 20:10 |
| alepot | flacoste: not in konqueror? | 20:10 |
| flacoste | sithlord48: nope, that only manages the "components", not per-mime types | 20:10 |
| sithlord48 | or u should be able to set them up in konquror /dolphin | 20:10 |
| jtholmes | joejc, compose or something like that | 20:10 |
| alepot | sithlord48: that would be a reasonable place to look | 20:10 |
| jtholmes | compwiz | 20:10 |
| rosco_y | joejc: you have to install the right drivers and tweak your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file | 20:11 |
| jtholmes | whatever | 20:11 |
| sithlord48 | sorry not @ my kubuntu machine ... xp at work for now.... | 20:11 |
| flacoste | alepot: well, the DB is used all over the place, so it's not konqueror specific | 20:11 |
| rosco_y | It's not a lot of fun, I can guarantee that--but it's really nice when its said and done | 20:11 |
| jtholmes | compiz | 20:11 |
| sithlord48 | compiz is much fun ..and so very useful | 20:11 |
| flacoste | in konversation, kmail, by the "application based on the contents of the URL" settings in "Web Browser" component | 20:11 |
| joejc | i installed the nvidia driver and im using twin view but its more like using 2 separate monitors | 20:11 |
| rosco_y | I'm just lucky my son was able to help me out with that | 20:11 |
| rosco_y | joejc: I know where you are...I've been there | 20:12 |
| rosco_y | search for "twinview" | 20:12 |
| rosco_y | joejc: I think I got a link for you...hang one | 20:13 |
| rosco_y | on, even | 20:13 |
| sithlord48 | does ne one here use a "remote desktop server" for kubuntu i have been having some issues getting it to work | 20:13 |
| alepot | flacoste: sure, but knoqueror - settings - file associations gets the job done. | 20:14 |
| rosco_y | joejc: keep your salt-shaker handy when you follow my advice--but you might be interested in: http://www.darkartistry.com/content/view/74/41/ | 20:14 |
| rosco_y | although that page is ati-specific, I'll bet the principals are similar | 20:16 |
| jtholmes | sithlord48, rds is it for windows clients google does not elaborate | 20:16 |
| sithlord48 | similar.... | 20:16 |
| jtholmes | sithlord48, what ubuntu package? | 20:16 |
| sithlord48 | vnc4server and x11vnc would be the two i have attempted to use... | 20:16 |
| alepot | +1 for any flavour of vnc | 20:17 |

| alepot | sithlord48: it can be made to work - IIRC I googled for a hoto when I was playing with remote access methods | 20:19 |
| alepot | *howto | 20:19 |
| flacoste | alepot: thanks, that's what i was looking for | 20:19 |
| alepot | the app's mailing list archives are always a good resource | 20:19 |
| sithlord48 | part of my issue could be that i am running ubuntu in a virtual machine. | 20:20 |

| noren | whatis whiteubuntu | 20:27 |
| floown | when I want to create a SSL certificat, it is asked "Common Name (eg, YOUR name) []". I enter my personal name or the NDD ? | 20:27 |

| ikonia | jtholmes: I am all powerful.....I also checked his isp | 20:50 |
| jtholmes | and how did you do that isp check and can i do similar | 20:50 |
| alepot | whois on the user (right-click on name ) | 20:51 |
| noren | whois | 20:51 |
| jtholmes | alepot, thanks | 20:51 |
| jtholmes | i know linux not irc | 20:51 |

| tobor | hi, I switched to a less capable monitor and now I need to reset the X windows resolution from the command line too about 800x600. What command can I use to do that? | 20:53 |
| tobor | *to | 20:53 |
| alepot | sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 20:54 |
| rosco_y | does anyone know how to install moria in ubuntu? | 20:54 |
| yaa__ | [506] #ubuntu-ru Please register with services and use the IDENTIFY command (/msg nickserv help) to speak in this channel | 20:54 |
| yaa__ | what does that mean&& | 20:55 |
| yaa__ | ?? | 20:55 |
| tobor | alepot: erm - that requires a bit more familiarity with that conf file than I have right now. Or is there simple way to select and set a resolution in that file? | 20:55 |
| jtholmes | yaa__, type /msg nickserv identify yaa__ | 20:55 |
| jtholmes | in that channel | 20:55 |
| rosco_y | yaa__: if you register your nickname with the nickserver, then it is reserved for you | 20:55 |
| yaa__ | thank u) | 20:56 |
| tobor | alepot: I think the contents of the xorg conf file need to be regenerated from scratch. | 20:56 |
| rosco_y | does anyone know where to download audio drivers for the Realtek ALC888 chipset? | 20:57 |
| tobor | IIRC kubuntu generates an xorg file at install time. i want to redo that part of the process. | 20:57 |
| noren | !speed | 20:58 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about speed | 20:58 |
| noren | !boot | 20:58 |
| ubottu | Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 20:58 |
| rosco_y | tobor: what video card are you using? | 20:58 |
| jtholmes | tobor, believe xorg.conf if very minimal these days, and most of the info is dynamically obtained | 20:58 |
| rosco_y | or rather, is it ATI, NVIDIA etc? | 20:58 |
| genii | tobor: That would usually be something like sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with a -phigh switch will usually only prompt for minimal questions like resolution, etc. However I'm not sure to what extent the xorg.conf file is actually even being used anymore. | 20:58 |
| jtholmes | if=is | 20:59 |
| rosco_y | I believe the ATI control panel modifies the conf.org file | 20:59 |
| rosco_y | setting resolutions, etc | 20:59 |
| === genux is now known as mbmondo | ||
| rosco_y | I think it was a little clumsy (the output in the file), but it worked, to a point | 20:59 |
| tobor | rosco_y: not sure, been 3-4 years since i opene d the case. :) | 21:00 |
| tobor | genii: gracias | 21:00 |
| jtholmes | i tend to agree w/genii xorg.conf not used much these days unless you manually code and then i think that info overrides dynamic | 21:00 |
| sithlord48 | i second that as my xorg has some tweaking done to it (like dpi forced) | 21:01 |
| tobor | rosco_y ATI Rage 128 | 21:01 |
| sithlord48 | wow i got the same card in my G3mac | 21:01 |
| rosco_y | Can anyone tell me where to download Realtek drivers for linux--I keep getting run around into the "Driver Dective" crap | 21:01 |
| rosco_y | erm, Detective, even | 21:01 |
| tobor | jtholmes: thanks | 21:01 |
| sithlord48 | rosco_y: sound card ? | 21:01 |
| rosco_y | sithlord48: y | 21:02 |
| rosco_y | no, on-board | 21:02 |
| rosco_y | Realtek ALC888 | 21:02 |
| rosco_y | audio tho, yes | 21:02 |
| jtholmes | tobar sure but wont hurt to try genii's suggestion just save xorg.conf first jic | 21:02 |
| sithlord48 | rosco_y: i have almost the same onboard on my other comp and it gets detected correctly | 21:02 |
| rosco_y | sithlord48: I was wondering about that--it's correctly identified in Alsamixer--would that indicate that it is actually being driven correctly? | 21:03 |
| rosco_y | maybe I need to be looking elsewhere for the reason I'm getting no audio | 21:03 |
| alepot | rosco_y: what does `lspci | grep -i audio` say | 21:03 |
| rosco_y | alepot: brb | 21:03 |
| sithlord48 | try checking kmix make sure your not muted and the right channel is selected as master | 21:04 |
| alepot | that's most likely if alsamixer sees it | 21:04 |
| rosco_y | 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia | 21:04 |
| rosco_y | 01:05.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RS780 Azalia controller | 21:04 |
| rosco_y | that was my output | 21:04 |
| alepot | Ah - two sound devices - its got its knoickers in a twist | 21:05 |
| rosco_y | I just swapped out my old motherboard and cpu, now it's not working | 21:05 |
| rosco_y | alepot: what should I do | 21:05 |
| alepot | I disbled one of the devices in the BIOS, or blacklisted the module that wasnt required, can't remember which | 21:06 |
| noren | swapped motherboard and cpu thats really fasst | 21:06 |
| rosco_y | in the bios hey... | 21:06 |
| rosco_y | noren: | 21:06 |
| rosco_y | that's what I just tried to do too...now nothing works :((( | 21:06 |
| alepot | rosco_y: be aware that disabling in the BIOS in't always effective. You may have tyo go the blacklist route | 21:07 |
| alepot | lsmod | grep snd | 21:07 |
| rosco_y | alepot: how do you blacklist? | 21:07 |
| Xeron | hey guys whats the install fix command its like apt-get -f install or something | 21:08 |
| alepot | you need to find out which module shouldn't be loaded, if there is one | 21:08 |
| alepot | Xeron: sudo apt-get -f install | 21:08 |
| julia_ex-xp | hi, i cannot ping my router with a static ip. does anyone know what to do? | 21:08 |
| sithlord48 | julia_ex_xp: on the computer ur using now ? | 21:09 |
| Xeron | E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 21:09 |
| Xeron | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 21:09 |
| Xeron | sudo apt-get -f install is broken | 21:10 |
| julia_ex-xp | no, I'm surfing with windows I'm a linux newbie | 21:10 |
| Xeron | my girlfiriend busted it | 21:10 |
| alepot | Xeron: you need to be root - hence the `sudo` | 21:10 |
| sithlord48 | xeron: you have adept_manager running. ? | 21:10 |
| Xeron | i did sudo | 21:10 |
| Xeron | nope | 21:10 |
| sithlord48 | julia_ex-xp: you get no sort of net connection under linux ? | 21:10 |
| Xeron | she was trying to install sunjava lol | 21:10 |
| alepot | Xeron: do you become root if you run `sudo -i`? | 21:10 |
| Xeron | yeah im root | 21:11 |
| Xeron | root still works | 21:11 |
| alepot | and the command still fails? | 21:11 |
| julia_ex-xp | I cannot ping the router, exactly and thus I do not have internet | 21:11 |
| rosco_y | alepot: no, you just run the command with root privileges | 21:11 |
| sithlord48 | xeron: that error is usually from trying to run more then one instance of a package manager.... check to make sure you have no others running (threads included) | 21:11 |
| aga | i just found out that when i close the lead of my lappy and get the pc back, then my wireless does not really work (says unmanaged) and i need to reboot | 21:11 |
| Xeron | allrite but i just rebooted | 21:11 |
| rosco_y | safer than logging in as root... | 21:12 |
| Xeron | theirs not other instances of apt manager or synaptic running | 21:12 |
| sithlord48 | julia_ex-xp: wired ? or wireless ? | 21:12 |
| aga | dunno how to find out what's happening | 21:12 |
| === aga is now known as cerecitas | ||
| sithlord48 | Xeron: and this is across a reboot ? | 21:12 |
| julia_ex-xp | sithlord48 old way: wired | 21:12 |
| alepot | rosco_y: sure, I was wondering whether there was something wroing with hois user account... | 21:12 |
| Xeron | well theirs no other installs running | 21:12 |
| jtholmes | aga what does the network icon in the tray are say about the connection when you open it | 21:12 |
| rosco_y | Xeron: 'ps | grep syn' will show processes running with 'syn' in them | 21:12 |
| alepot | Xeron: there may be a stale lock file kicking around | 21:13 |
| sithlord48 | julia_ex-xp,did you try it w/ dhcp ever ? | 21:13 |
| cerecitas | jtholmes: right now works fine, before it was saying "unmanaged" for both eth0 and wlan0 | 21:13 |
| Xeron | nada | 21:13 |
| cerecitas | hey Xeron how you doing :) | 21:13 |
| rosco_y | does anyone recommend upgrading to 64 bit linux? | 21:13 |
| Xeron | sup cerecitas ;) | 21:13 |
| rosco_y | eagles0513875: are you still here? | 21:14 |
| === tanja is now known as muxomor_ | ||
| Xeron | just tryin to figure out why my apt-get -f instal isent workin | 21:14 |
| julia_ex-xp | the router has static ips and I'm using this router with one linux pc and 2 other windows pcs, thus it shouldnt be a problem with the router | 21:14 |
| jtholmes | cerecitas, i always set network/interfaces up manually after first login and then is can ifup/ifdown the interfaces when problems occur | 21:14 |
| cerecitas | arrived late... the error message is that one of cannot get lock blabla? | 21:14 |
| jtholmes | is=I | 21:14 |
| sithlord48 | julia_ex-xp , i would agree with that... | 21:14 |
| cerecitas | i have it configured to connect automatically, once i hibernated and when back worked fine | 21:14 |
| cerecitas | today i am not sure of what i did, just closed the lid... and when i came back surprise!!!! | 21:15 |
| Xeron | k think i figured it out | 21:15 |
| |PaperTiger| | Anyone here know a lot about CLI codes? | 21:15 |
| sithlord48 | julia_ex-xp, does lwhw show your network adaptor as unclamed | 21:15 |
| cerecitas | but lately my network is doing all the weird things one can imagine... so go figure... | 21:15 |
| jtholmes | cerecitas, welcome to open source :) | 21:15 |
| alepot | Xeron: what was the problem? | 21:15 |
| sithlord48 | |papertiger|, a little whats up ? | 21:15 |

| Xeron | lol | 21:16 |
| jtholmes | |PaperTiger|, as in command line interface? | 21:16 |
| cerecitas | hihihi... as long as they can be fixed with a reboot... | 21:16 |
| sithlord48 | Xeron: have you restarted since then ? | 21:16 |
| cerecitas | are you using 9.4 nine Xeron?// | 21:16 |
| Xeron | anyway i fixed the partial install but now i cant even get sunjava to instal | 21:16 |
| cerecitas | -nine | 21:16 |
| alepot | Xeron: so what fixed it? | 21:16 |
| |PaperTiger| | sithlord48 Want to set up my dual screen, but using Catalyst Control Centre doesn't work, so I thought I'd try CLI. I have a set of instructions but wanted to know the format :) | 21:16 |
| Xeron | yeah im using 9.4 lol | 21:16 |
| |PaperTiger| | jtholmes, yes | 21:16 |
| Xeron | i just apt-get -f install | 21:17 |

| Xeron | anyway thanks guys ill figure it out from here | 21:17 |
| |PaperTiger| | I can do the Ubuntu paste thing sithlord48 | 21:17 |
| sithlord48 | |papertiger|, you can send me a link or if its a lot of text pm it to me | 21:18 |
| cerecitas | not really sure of how it works with 9.04 xeron.. maybe in #ubuntu+1 | 21:18 |
| rosco_y | does anyone know why I can only configure two desktops in my pager? | 21:18 |
| tobor | genii: i did the dpkg command you suggested. that got rid of the hi-res display modelines. Thanks. Now I wont melt down my display! :-) | 21:18 |
| |PaperTiger| | I'll do Ubuntu paste and link you | 21:18 |
| cerecitas | anyways, does apt work at all for you? | 21:19 |
| rosco_y | It lets me select more, but only two are saved | 21:19 |
| rosco_y | I really like apt, yes | 21:19 |
| rosco_y | works like a charm, in my opinion | 21:19 |
| jtholmes | rosco_y, have you tried synaptic | 21:19 |
| yiannis | since i upgrade to kubuntu 8.10 i have no sound | 21:19 |
| cerecitas | yiannis: no sound at all or no sound when you try to play some music? | 21:20 |
| yiannis | now with 9.04 the same | 21:20 |
| alepot | yiannis: run alsamixer and check that your sound is not muted | 21:20 |
| |PaperTiger| | sithlord48, http://paste.ubuntu.com/141676/ | 21:20 |
| rosco_y | jtholmes: I did use synaptic before...I think with another distro | 21:20 |
| yiannis | no sound at all | 21:20 |
| |PaperTiger| | sithlord48, I want to set it up as an extended desktop | 21:20 |
| yiannis | i have tried almost everything i have found in internet | 21:21 |
| jtholmes | rosco_y, i use synaptic and apt-XXX and like both i use synaptic for updates to pkgs | 21:21 |
| sithlord48 | |papertiger|, was just about to ask that | 21:21 |
| |PaperTiger| | sithlord48, :) | 21:21 |
| alepot | yiannis: has your sound card been detected? | 21:21 |
| |PaperTiger| | sithlord48, I just need to know a bit more about the format of CLI | 21:21 |
| |PaperTiger| | yiannis, open the sound mixer and make sure nothing is muted | 21:21 |
| |PaperTiger| | yiannis, also, put all volumes up. See if that helps | 21:22 |
| jtholmes | cerecitas, did you ask a quest about apt | 21:22 |
| yiannis | nothing of these helped | 21:22 |

| alepot | yiannis: in that case I can't help further. sorry | 21:36 |
| yiannis | thanks anyway | 21:36 |
| alepot | ubuntu: <root device> should be something like /dev/sda | 21:36 |
| yiannis | i cant imagine i have no sound in kubuntu any more | 21:37 |
| alepot | yiannis: a reboot, or logout and login, doesnt help? | 21:37 |

| jtholmes | ubuntu_, you said you had one hard drive is sdb a USB stick | 21:43 |
| alepot | ubuntu: not the mount pint - the device, you want it in the boot partition | 21:43 |
| alepot | *s/partition/sector/ | 21:44 |

| jtholmes | ubuntu_, do you know how to paste output of a command to pastebin | 21:50 |
| picketfence | :alepot: I'm getting Permission Denied. | 21:50 |
| alepot | picketfence: if you just want it for a user, then use the command as I gave it to you. If you want it to be a system-wide change, better just to put the path statement into /etc/bash.bashrc with a text editor. You'll need to become root to do that | 21:50 |
| picketfence | oic | 21:50 |
| ubuntu_ | jtholmes: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/141694/ | 21:51 |

| picketfence | :alepot: Sorry for being so difficult, but now that I'm in /etc/bash.bashrc, where do I put the path? | 21:53 |
| alepot | picketfence: do you know where java is? | 21:54 |
| picketfence | :alepot: Yes, I know the full path. | 21:54 |
| ubuntu_ | jtholmes, as I said the sda is an external device (500GB eSATA disk), in the sdb1 I have win sdb2 / sdb3 /home sdb4 swap | 21:54 |
| alepot | ok, so go to the bottom of the bfile, then insert PATH=$PATH:path to java | 21:55 |

| jtholmes | |REz|, doubt it, you installed linux on sdb it probably altered that MBR | 21:58 |
| genii | otm: http://www.whatismyip.com/ or http://www.ip-adress.com/ or http://whatismyipaddress.com/ etc etc | 21:59 |
