[00:59] !jaunty [01:08] Hello people.. I have dist-upgrade'ed to 9.04, when I log in now all I get is a black background.. anyone know where to start to troubleshoot this? === john is now known as Guest9142 [01:09] btw, kdm starts, the login screen is displayed === vhdirk is now known as Aegiron [01:11] similar to me Andre, i just installed 8.10 and kdm boots put my password in then it freezes on the kde4.1 splash [01:14] Andre101: first i dod not really recommend upgrading to a new distribution like that (especially not because it is BETA) ... But you can move the old ~/.kde dir to ~/kde-old-dir ... and see if a newly made .kde dir makes a differentce [01:15] Riesh, mefisto__ had me do that for my situation, and it didn't work, and he not online so what would you suggest trying after that? [01:16] Lego: maybe a reconfigure of Xorg would make a difference ? ... not really sure ... when did your problem start? [01:16] from the first boot on the fresh install. he did have me run a reconfigure aswell [01:17] the sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg is what he had me do. [01:17] what kind of harware you have ? ... sure it is not broken ? [01:18] Lego: that indeed i would also want you to do :-) [01:18] i didd a sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a and it got rid of that unable to start graphics thing [01:18] yes i know its not broken.. its an intel board using the onboard video. I runs BSD/KDE3.5/Compiz fine.. so im wondering if it just can't handel xorg7.4 and kde4.1 [01:19] I do have a radeon 2400HD installed but when i installed kubuntu with it being the primary card, i couldn't even get kdm to boot [01:19] Mmmm maybe you can indeed try the way suffice points to, it will ask you a lot of questions though [01:20] will i be able to answer them :S [01:20] OK ... try it [01:21] its running now [01:22] um ca-certificates.. trust new ones from authorites ? yes no ask? [01:22] picking ask [01:24] hehe ok.. not sure what i did.. but it looks like crap now... [01:24] really ? [01:24] what you mean? [01:25] well it changed from a nice looking config (clean lines bright colors) to a dull dos looking screen [01:25] it did it right after a font setup [01:25] don't mention dos :-P please [01:26] bash is really a lot different [01:26] lol but thats what it looks like, the easiest way to describe it [01:26] the dull blue and gray with 'tall' characters [01:26] but can X run, thats the question :-) [01:27] Riesh: I have moved the .kde dir, didn't help :( [01:27] isn't x running if kdm log in boots? [01:27] Andre101: what kind of hw you have ? [01:27] Lego ... yes [01:27] Does kdm run? [01:27] so x runs it freezes after i try and log into kde [01:28] yes. [01:28] Riesh: laptop, nvidia graphics card [01:28] like i boot the system.. kdm shows up i put my password in and it freezes on the kde4.1 splash screen right after it loads the hdd image [01:29] Lego: sorry, then i am out of ideas [01:29] anything you can find in .xsession-errors? [01:29] or in /var/log/Xorg.log.0 [01:30] Andre101: you had nvidia module loaded before you upgrade ? [01:30] see, when i had bsd isntalled i ran kde3.5/compiz-fusion fine on the intel card. but when i upgrade the xorg 7.4 it skips the xorg-drivers 7.4, and x would boot but compiz would crash, and after forcing the drivers install all of it crashed... [01:30] i will have to wait to check the xorg.0.log [01:31] wait is it xorg.log.0 on ubuntu? [01:31] Lego: ... uh, let me see [01:32] /var/log/Xorg.0.log [01:32] sorry [01:32] its cool :P [01:32] so how long does this reconfigure take? [01:33] um :-) ... not so long i think [01:33] lol you don't sound ver re-assuring :P [01:33] very* [01:33] it's just going from one menu option into the other ... and at the end it will writeout the config files [01:33] ah === Riddell changed the topic of #kubuntu to: Official Kubuntu support | Kubuntu 9.04 Beta http://kubuntu.org/news/9.04-beta | Jaunty/9.04 support only in #ubuntu+1 | FAQ: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/FAQ | Free 8.10 (KDE 4) CDs https://shipit.kubuntu.org | Pastes: http://paste.ubuntu.com | Chat in #kubuntu-offtopic | KDE 4.2.2 out http://kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2.2 [01:34] * Andre101 is thinking of just doing a clean install of 8.10, it's been a very long time since I have done a clean install [01:34] 4.2.2 is out [01:34] and in Jaunty [01:34] yup, yup it is [01:34] it keeps spitting out unknown formats for fonts and stuff [01:35] Lego: hmmm ... that doesn't sound good [01:35] unknown media type in type 'uri/rtspu' [01:36] was one i could catch before they flew off the screen [01:38] hmmm ... this last error you got from dpkg-reconfigure ? [01:39] yes but it keeps going.. it spits out like 6 of those in a row and keeps going 'dpkg-reconfigure -a' [01:39] i dont know whats going on here, i recently reinstalled jaunty kubuntu, and kde is running super super slow [01:39] ive dist-upgraded too [01:39] this is really really not cool [01:39] sorry ... maybe you can break that off === R3DB0x is now known as boboso [01:40] is there any big chances from 4.2 to 4.2.2 ?

Warning: this may take a long time. [01:41] okay [01:42] its done im rebooting and hopeing for the best.. but i dont' think it will work.. i think they dropped support for my card in xorg 7.4 or it just can't handle kde4.1 [01:44] nope, same thing.. freezes, right after it loads the hdd logo, [01:45] mmm, so then check Xorg.0.log [01:45] yup just waiting for it to reboot. [01:46] nano /var/log/xorg.0.log [01:46] ? [01:46] and ~/.xsession-error [01:46] or cat [01:46] or less [01:46] xorg.0.log is empty [01:46] new file [01:47] there are more [01:47] so is ~/.xsession-error [01:47] /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old [01:47] old is empty aswell :S [01:47] wow [01:48] does /var/log/messages give any hints ? .... or /var/log/syslog ? [01:48] am i opening them wrong? nano /var/log/xorg.0.log.old ; nano ~/.xsession-error [01:49] just use "cat" first [01:49] messages has tons of info [01:49] instead of nano [01:49] nano is more for editing [01:49] cat /var/log/xorg.0.log no such file or diretory [01:49] Xorg [01:49] with Capital [01:50] ah that worked [01:50] what kind of error am i looking for [01:50] Just got a whole pot full of updates, mostly KDE, is this the 4.2.2 update?

The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [01:57] thats all of them [01:58] i can't paste bin sorry, that system is not on the net [01:58] im trying to do this from one computer to the next [01:58] but thats all of them [01:59] Lego: You do not see any lines beginning with (EE) ?

[02:01] yes [02:01] no it doesn't [02:01] can try to add that [02:02] ok [02:02] i think mefisto had me try this aswell [02:02] but here goes nothing :) [02:03] restart X [02:03] from the kdm menu [02:04] ok [02:04] done, now try and log in again [02:04] nope ... [02:05] mmm ... guess i am out of ideas [02:06] what the command to pull up the vga information lspci | vga [02:06] grep VGA [02:06] lspci |grep VGA [02:06] well it found both and they are named correctly [02:07] well they won't be named incorrectly in lspci [02:08] :-) [02:08] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) [02:10] and how can we check the driver its using? [02:10] pkg_info|grep xorg doesn't work :P [02:11] i am just googling with the lspci info ... btw did you install from LiveCD ? [02:11] um. I installed from the 8.10 download straight from the kubunut site [02:12] upgraded ? [02:12] from 8.04 ? [02:12] no straight 8.10 install [02:13] http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download [02:13] and didn't check the box right below the download button [02:13] there are two CD's .... livecd and alternate [02:13] live is goving a complete desktop running from cd [02:13] alternate just starts the debian installer [02:14] yes i had the live cd then.. it was full graphic installer [02:14] with live cd.. [02:14] does that make a difference? [02:14] well, .... then X should be working [02:14] the X version from cd [02:15] X is working :P we've established that :P its kde thats not working [02:15] didn't you say that kdm wouldn't boot up if x wasn't working [02:15] well if it is running in the live cd then there should be no problem with the installed one [02:16] no live cd wouldn't boot to the kde desktop [02:16] it did the same thing [02:16] kdm worked no kde [02:17] you have network working on the comp. [02:17] would you like me to try again, booting the live cd, and just see exactly what happens [02:17] no lol, we couldn't get me connected to my wireless over the command prompt [02:17] no ... if it did not work it doesn't work now [02:17] but just to see if its gunna give a different error? [02:18] ok can try :-) [02:18] like i said im down to try anything to get it working :) [02:19] maybe just download the Jaunty beta live cd ... and try that one :-) [02:20] well im downloading the 8.04 right now. it has xorg 7.3 and kde3 and i know both of those should work, because i ran both under bsd with compiz (again only on the intel card since radeon doesn't have 3d support) but I guess it does under ubuntu.. so i plan on using it.. if it works. [02:20] but the intel or radeon don't want to work on 8.10 (intel atleast boots kdm) [02:21] im just glad i have 3 computers so i can mess around and not have to worry about not being on the net :P [02:22] Lego: just depends on which driver you use i guess for the radeon card ... there are 3 options i think ... the ati driver, the radeon driver ... and the binary driver fglrx [02:23] the last one has 3D support [02:23] well live cd is running and on kde4.1 splash and moved past were it has been locking up.. loaded the ah wrench and nut driver / globe / looks like an envelope and now .... not sure what its doing.. [02:23] loading from cd is slow [02:24] i think it froze up again [02:24] not cd activity ? [02:24] nope [02:25] no hdd activity aswell [02:25] then maybe it is a bug in X ... would maybe have been solved if you could update [02:25] you don't have a cable which you can use for eth0 ? [02:25] how come KDE 4.2.2 was released today, but when I went to upgrade it, it was already done automatically just with the automatic upgrade set to "security only"? [02:26] hehe nope.. im way to far from the router, all my computers are wireless.. and i have a bridge just to get to that router [02:26] yea it froze.. [02:27] So ... you can see if 8.04 works ... boots to a complete kde environment ... and maybe after that you can try this also with 9.04 which will be release 3 weeks later [02:28] LOL yea.. thats what i want to do.. if i get 8.04 installed and working.. its staying put ! [02:29] :-) ... your missing the fun of kde 4.2.2 then [02:29] compiz runs :P [02:29] kde 4.2.2 is much more then the wobbly windows and cube effect [02:30] UM im F*&$I&O Pissed.. the download for 8.04 just finished.. and nero popped up... and i just closed it.. and now i can't find the 8.04 download.. [02:30] almost like nero deleted it [02:30] windows ? [02:31] yes. [02:31] lego i feel yer pain, I had firefox stash it in some temp folder one time and ended up haveing to re-download [02:31] what you used to download it ? [02:31] yes but ff is like 50mb max.. 8.04 is 700.... [02:31] IE [02:31] :-( ... [02:31] IE8 even worse.. since im in Windows Seven [02:32] :-( [02:32] lego, no Firefox goofed up the download for 8.10 [02:32] use torrent next time [02:32] ah.. i see what you mean [02:32] i should considering i have utorrent installed [02:32] * Wazmyn suggests using opera and it's nice download manager [02:33] but nero should not delete stuff ... [02:34] makes me wonder if i can find it in my temp folder if i accidently hit open instead of save [02:34] Lego: can you do a search and try to find it ? [02:34] that was the first thing i did.. no luck [02:35] yea its gone.... :( [02:35] Does IE not ask where save a download ? [02:35] * Riesh staying away from IE already a long time [02:35] it does but i may have hit open instead of save... [02:36] ugh... 3 more hours.../ [02:36] maybe it is then indeed saved in the temp dir [02:36] i looked dont' see it [02:36] search the whole c drive ? [02:37] searched? [02:37] *.iso [02:37] yup found just 3 [02:37] none are 8.04 [02:38] figures... its my luck man... [02:38] mmm ... looks like your out of luck then [02:38] hehe i totally put the "It just works" outta wack [02:38] because it doesn't :P [02:39] windows 7 is beta [02:39] yea but its not the issue.. been running it great for over a month [02:39] gaming, surfing, downloading, torrents.. everything. [02:39] mind you i never had an issue with vista... [02:40] yeah ... ... until you download a torrent with IE and it suddenly disappears [02:40] uptime 4days 5hrs 34mins [02:40] i mean an iso [02:40] hehe thats my probably stupidity which is why nero tried to open the file.. instead of the download dialog just closing.. [02:41] well i figured i'd let the live cd boot again.. and it froze just after the blueish envelope appeared... [02:42] Lego: sorry, i can't help you [02:43] thats cool.. im just gunna hope that 8.04 works.. [02:45] well im out for now.. thanks for the help man [02:45] http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/8.04.2/kubuntu-8.04.2-desktop-i386.iso.torrent\ [02:46] ok === pm2 is now known as Guest17308 === pm4 is now known as pm2 [03:00] evening folks [03:15] anybody know the status of the nvidia driver *71 === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq [03:26] tanderson_ , what's your card?

[08:57] so i have the feeling this is sthg. different [08:58] Hi, Has any one else noticed that http://za.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xorg/x11-common_7.4~5ubuntu17_all.deb is missing? [09:00] MarkieMark1: maybe ... what really bothers me is adept: If I would allow to run it, i would have a cripled system [09:01] MarkieMark1: amongst others it would uninstall dolphin and kwin [09:02] JohnDoe365: you get that with changing releases [09:02] I think its somehow related to kde 4.2 update [09:02] I remember breaking my system trying to update my Open Office to gutsy's version of Open Office from Feisty [09:03] It's similar to how the update manager suggests removing packages when you upgrade the 'normal' way [09:03] but i have the feeling that i shouldnt get it ... i issued no dist-upgrade and added no repo of jaunty ... [09:05] JohnDoe365: quite possibly as you say specifically linked to KDE4.2 [09:05] I'm no specialist in KDE though there should be, around :) === guido is now known as Guest95056 [09:38] hey guys, I try to configure my firewall for samba. I'd like to close port 137-139, 445 and 901 but allow it füor a couple of IPs i'm using. doesn't work. is gufw the right plattform for that? [09:39] !firewall [09:39] Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). [09:39] then use guarddog to set the rule to allow the traffic, all other requests will be denied [10:01] Hey all - what's the general feeling of the Kubuntu Hardy » Kubutu latest upgrade path at the moment for desktops? I remember when Intrepid first appeared on the scene it came with a footnote along the lines of "Hey, Intrepid/KDE 4.x is the latest and greatest, but - maybe you want to stick with Hardy for now if you run a production environment" [10:01] ToreadorVampire: runs fine [10:01] ToreadorVampire: if you have a usb stick spare you could install to that to try it [10:03] Mmm, that's not a bad idea actually ... My current USB stick is a bit small for that (512MB, but hey, it was a freebie) but I should probably get a new one someday - and it's not like they're expensive [10:03] true and they are great for testing new releases as you do not touch your internal drive [10:04] Mmm, I do remember also that when Intrepid first appeared it said that a lot of settings for Hardy aren't likely to survive the transition to a KDE 4.x based environment ... is that still the case or has the upgrade process been improved since then? [10:05] Hello. Maybe you somebody already said it but with the new kde 4.2.2 plasma eats all the CPU. It's a packaging problem or it comes from kde? [10:05] It's only that - I'm mid-project at the moment (but should be finished in a few weeks) - I don't want to change my production machine while I'm mid-project, but I don't mind trying out a quick switch just before I start a new project [10:05] anybody succeeded in listening to music with the mbs-100? a bluetooth speaker? I get an error message when I try to pair it with my computer [10:07] Anyway, thanks - will probably skip Intrepid and try Jaunty in a few weeks ... thanks for the suggestion :) [10:09] Just installed the Jaunty beta to a USB stick.. a little slow (meaning a lot slow) in terms of data transfer, but otherwise Jaunty is looking rather slick [10:11] i got jaunty juandice workin fine === rraphink is now known as raphink [10:13] ActionParsnip puh thats really complicated i allowed dns, ftp, http https do you know what samba needs because It#s not workking anymore [10:15] marie_blubb: looks like 445 [10:16] marie_blubb: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=365990 [10:17] yesterday jaunty made its way on my laptop. today I will install it on my desktop. next week I guess (when all tests are passed) it will move to the computer in my company. great work! === nicola is now known as HamidReza [10:18] or should I wait until final is out? beto to final should work right? [10:19] wizkoder: its out but the final release has been pused back to august due to issues. it does however run ok on my stystem byt your systm will e different [10:23] hi [10:23] i need an a software for call wating [10:24] with dial up [10:24] yooooooooooohooooooooooooo [10:26] In the new version of kde 4.2.2 plasma eats many CPU (around 80%). I am using intrepid in a x386 and it worked fine before this upgrade. What happen? [10:26] ActionParsnip sorry me again, i read in the oreily doc that i have to closes these ports, but just for trying I cannot find where to change that in the guarddog (I read the website of guarddog) [10:28] marie_blubb: not something i use but its my next project so you'll have to feel around [10:29] hi.... in need a software for call wating in dial-up connection [10:34] hiiiiiiiiiiiiii [10:34] i need a software for call wating in dial-up connection [10:36] i need a software for call wating in dial-up connection [10:36] please [10:36] help me [10:36] help [10:37] answer me [10:39] help me [10:39] help me [10:39] HamidReza: clearly nobody can or they would have answered by now [10:39] try again later in the day [10:40] ohhhhhhhhh [10:40] how do I deactivate guarddog? I dont get it [10:41] guarddog is only a gui tool fo iptables [10:56] HamidReza: you mean to disable call waiting while on dialup? === forge is now known as ForgeAus [11:14] how to fix apt-get?... I have a problem with koffice packages... kpresenter-kde4 wants to install a pixmap into /usr/share/pixmaps/kpresenter.xpm where another package kpresenter-data apparently also installs it to and doesn't like to overwrite it ... (even if I delete the file, oddly)... [11:14] hi guys [11:14] I was wondering if you know what is the application that shows you the level of the volume when you use FN keys combinations [11:14] but it won't let me apt-get remove kpresenter-data and all apt-get -f install does is keep trying to install kpresenter-kde4 [11:15] volume, uh kmix? [11:15] not sure if it dynamically updates when you use FN keys tho [11:15] ForgeAus: no man, kmix is something, I'd like to be notified when I press FN+F3 [11:15] there might be a monitoring app to show something like that... but if there is I don't know what its alled [11:15] or F4 whatever [11:17] f4 for changing volume? hmmm I don't think Kubuntu is set up that way anyway... is it? [11:17] yes it does [11:17] at least with the live-cd [11:17] ok sorry I havn't much experience with audio stuff, I tend not to use it alot [11:19] the F keys I tend to use for switching virtual terminals or whatever its called (ie control + alt + f7 for x-server display, and the ones before that generally for tty1, 2, 3, etc cli logins) [11:19] many apps assign a function to the F keys [11:20] so like I said I'm not familiar with Fn keys for audio [11:21] brb, I just had an idea to find out something [11:21] wait Fn as in a notebook PC? [11:21] (rather than just an F key like F1, F2, F3? [11:21] no [11:21] FN as in a sony laptoop [11:22] ahh ok well thats probably based on what sony (lots of other companies that make notebooks also use an FN key in a similar way)... decides it does [11:22] there is some laptop keys package, and some laptop-detect stuff [11:22] (often they use a diff colour like blue) [11:22] on the keyboard directly to show what the function does... [11:23] one common use for an Fn key is to switch between LCD display and external VGA connector... [11:24] audio volume is obviously something Sony have done custom for their notebooks, which is fine, but how the software recognises that is a whole other question, unfortunately I don't know if it even does... [11:25] what I do know is in system settings the keyboard and mouse applet can show you KDE's combinations [11:28] heya [11:28] hello === Lavandergirl{kc} is now known as Ciylana [11:29] does anyone know how to stop kopete sending light grey text to my msn buddies?

He's on Ubuntu server [11:54] yep Linda, wassup? [11:55] Hello everyone. (K.8.04.2) i've noticed that yesterday new update appeared. But it's different than others, because it contains installation of several packages. can someone confirm, that it's ok?

[12:00] Is there a video driver that's generic, like the vesa one, but supports higher resolutions than 1024x768? [12:03] hutch, uuid is sort of a replacement for /dev/hda1, etc [12:03] hutch, you can just use the /dev/hdxn etc for it instead of the uuid [12:03] K thnx [12:03] im not sure how to find out the uuids [12:04] vol_id [12:05] !blkid [12:05] To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [12:06] I am getting nothing when trying to share file using dolphin [12:06] Is there a way to use Intrepid or Jaunty with KDE 3.5? [12:07] yes, uninstall kde4 and reinstall kde3.5 from source! lol [12:07] or use kde3 packages from feisty or hardy repos? [12:07] Thanx for the help guys Saturn2888 thinks he's sorted now [12:09] kdesu dolhin [12:09] I personally did an upgrade of Hardy (with KDE3 and a kde4 alternative parallel to it) to Intrpid now I have some kinda hybrid that runs by default KDE4 but kde3 stuff still works [12:09] kdesu dolphin === jeltsch is now known as jeltsch_ [12:45] ubuntu.it [12:46] www.ubuntu.it [12:46] My file sharing not working [12:46] can any body help [12:46] me [12:46] yes [12:47] anybody could [12:47] which way should it work [12:47] smb?

[15:19] (i've tryed editing the file by hand, as I've read in some forums) [15:20] (now I can't open synaptic without getting an error) [15:20] fabro: The exact error might be useful [15:21] ok, just a sec [15:21] just testing jaunty beta [15:21] looks great :) [15:21] victim: I explained already. Use : apt-cache policy packagename to derive the number/version to use for the apt-get install directive [15:21] Por favor, informe de ésto como un fallo en el paquete «update-manager» e incluya el siguiente mensaje de error: [15:21] 'E:Tipo 'http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/intrepid.list' desconocido en la línea 1 de lista de fuentes /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list, E:No se pudieron leer las listas de fuentes.' [15:22] (my sistem is in spanish) [15:23] fabro: Put in the file: deb http://wherever instead of just: http://wherever [15:23] ok... [15:24] fabro: No, wait. Please use pastebin website to show us the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list [15:25] wow, i was about to do it, how do use that? [15:25] where is pastebin? [15:25] !paste [15:25] 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) [15:25] fabro: The bot explains it , just above [15:25] ok... [15:26] but there is also a pastebinit program to [15:26] it auto pastes it [15:26] though i forget how to do it [15:27] http://paste.ubuntu.com/143507/ === Hasnain is now known as hasnain[dead] [15:28] (is the link right?) [15:28] Yes [15:29] ok, this is one of the only two things to have the sistem fully functional [15:29] nope [15:29] fabro: Hm. Not to paste the error, but the contents of file. Do: cat /etc/apt/sources.list and then pastebin that, please [15:29] the error is not on that file [15:30] the error is in etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list [15:30] do I paste the content of that file anyway? [15:31] fabro: Whichever file the malformed line is in [15:32] that's the one [15:32] Work is needing me here on and off right now, please excuse lag [15:32] sure, no problem, I can fully operate my comuter [15:33] the only thing is that synaptic crashes everytime I open it [15:33] so, there's no rush [15:33] (i'm not sure if I'm flooding you with so many posts, If so I'm really sorry) [15:35] fabro: So: cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list and then pastebin results of that [15:35] cat? [15:35] fabro: It seems malformed line which needs "deb" or "deb-src" in front but would like to make sure [15:35] fabro: Yes, cat [15:36] I don't know what that means [15:36] (sorry) [15:37] fabro: It means to type in: cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list ...which will put the contents of the file ont he screen. Then copy fromt he screen to the pastebin website so we can all see the file. [15:38] fabro: cat=concatene [15:41] here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/143513/ [15:48] fabro: I do not know why it seems to want to go to the internet when you are doing the "cat" command. Maybe this is output from a different console appearing or from stdout. But here is the result of same command on my computer for instance (hardy and not intrepid): http://paste.ubuntu.com/143515/ [15:49] fabro: Note it puts " deb" before the url. [15:49] so you're saying I should edit the file and put "deb " before the url? [15:51] fabro: Yes, now you are beginning to understand [15:52] ok, great, i'll do that, thanks [15:53] fabro: Or instead you could just move the directory somewhere for backup, then follow the instructions of: http://winehq.org/download/deb [15:55] ! [15:56] ok, I'm reading it (I added the "deb " but I got another error [15:57] fabro: The url you have in there is not correct, aside from the no "deb" at beginning of it. Best to read the site and follow it [15:57] I got this one http://paste.ubuntu.com/143518/ [15:58] ok, then I'll read it though out [15:58] thanks a lot and sorry for the time wasted [16:00] I'm having lock ups that require manual shutdown, the cursor is still moveable but nothing else is [16:00] the only thing i've done differently of late that i can think of is using preload, and booting without "splash", and with "vga=791" in kernel line... [16:02] joshjtl: I'd suspect the preload [16:03] genii: ok, so my only recourse would be uninstalling preload then? [16:04] joshjtl: PErhaps try that and see if it is the cause. If it isn't, reinstall it and return for more help on same subject [16:04] genii: good idea, i will do just that [16:05] Work, AFK [16:05] genii: do you know if i need to do anything [16:05] other than just uninstalll preload [16:06] genii: for example do i need to reboot or anythingg? [16:09] why do my applications allways forget the dimensions i set? Example, i want to open dolphin in fullscreen, but it allways opens as window [16:10] joshjtl:A reboot would be best to make sure. Did you use some directive in grub like "profile" or such? [16:10] genii: no just removed splash, and added vga=791 [16:11] joshjtl: OK. === smitty is now known as Guest19233 [16:11] genii: is there anywhere i can look, a log maybe where i might be able to find info on what is causing this? [16:13] sorry genii, but I've read it twice and don't seem to get the point, what links the site you gave me to my problem? [16:13] joshjtl: There are many logs in /var/log the usual ones to look at are: messages boot faillog and so on [16:13] fabro: It seems fairly self-explanatory [16:14] fabro: http://winehq.org/download/deb [16:14] ok [16:15] fabro: They may also be able to assist you better in channel #ubuntu-es if you prefer Espanol === jason is now known as jason_r === jason_r is now known as aus_jason_r === aus_jason_r is now known as aussie_jason_r === aussie_jason_r is now known as aus_jason_r [16:25] hey guys, i just installed the compiz stuff from the desktop effects, and rebooted.. how do i use the cube and all the other features of compiz?

[19:48] mtavares: It won't grab updates for something you don't have installed, for instance [19:48] genii: well.. I want to update to kde 4.2, but this computer is stuck on 4.1 [19:48] kick it! [19:48] just kidding [19:49] genii: the other comp updated just fine to kde4.2 [19:49] My 8.10 system today notified me of a whole slew of updates, but it also wants to remove a *lot* of packages, e.g. adept, akregator, amarok-kde4, dolphin... seems like most of KDE! Any idea what that's about? [19:49] cuznt: the fonzie method [19:49] it is.... i must whack it to get my old dvd to read @ times....

[21:19] oh, and i maybe should have mentioned i'm using 64bit. didn't realize that might have anything to do with it. (might it?)

[21:21] noren: You want lm-sensors and sensord and some panel app like Kima or Ksensors to monitor them [21:21] i dont know how to use that to find out is that something i have to run in konsole [21:21] <__-osh-__> Is there a recommended way of upgrading from 6.06 to 8.04 on a headless system?

[21:30] BOZG: product: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+ [21:30] vendor: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] [21:30] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: the problem is that following those instructions will have me deleting even the running kernel in /boot. Not a good option. [21:30] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: I only have two kernels in there now but it still sais it needs more space. [21:31] Most new processors have a number of cores. [21:31] Rather than just a single core. [21:31] So, you get the core temperatures of all the cores. [21:31] __-osh-__: you sure you don't have /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ? [21:31] BOZG: wats the safe core temp?? [21:31] Though I would have assumed that it would only give 2 temps if you've an X2, though I don't know all that much about CPU structures. [21:32] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: yep. only /etc/updatedb.conf which isn't related. =) [21:33] __-osh-__: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades has different instructions. have you looked at that? [21:33] noren: I think it depends on the chip but normally, 60C is warning level. [21:33] And 70C causes an automatic shutdown. [21:33] Depending on your BIOS. [21:34] any ideas what [events/2] is? [21:34] __-osh-__: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#Network Upgrade for Ubuntu Servers (Recommended) [21:34] Your temperatures are fine. [21:34] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: yeah, but 6.06 isnt' listed there yet so perhaps the support hasn't run out yet then? [21:34] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: maybe I should hang on to dapper for now... [21:35] __-osh-__: that page says "Upgrade from 6.06 LTS to 8.04 LTS" [21:35] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: I thought dapper was running out of support around now. It's been on my machine for quite a while. [21:36] also my virt terminals are hosed. Any ideas? [21:37] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: NOW is see it. They've hidden it after 7.something... [21:38] __-osh-__: dapper *server* is supported until June 2011 according to this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [21:38] Well, -server is [21:38] Server is 5 years, desktop is 3 [21:39] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: And yes, I've followed those instructions "sudo do-release-upgrade" but that only lands me in "free up some more space in /boot and come back". And the space it wants me to free up is * in /boot. Not an option. :-) [21:40] <__-osh-__> mefisto__: but if it's supported for another 2 years then I should probably forget about it and worry 2011 if the machine hasn't broken down by then. =) [21:41] how to get the list of broken packets by tty ?

[22:52] yes [22:52] dual boot [22:53] with access to the ext2fs partitions by efs driver === brunocqc is now known as brunoqc [22:53] yoritomo: can you still boot to kubuntu desktop? [22:53] then from here i can check some logs or other things [22:53] no more gui nor the log screen [22:54] though when i do startx it is working [22:54] Hi, I just installed Kubuntu, I am very happy, but I can't make changes in the "system setting". It seems that to edit needing a different user level. How to enter and make changes in "system setting". Thank You [22:55] but only blank screen in graphic mode [22:55] yoritomo: so when you do startx it is NOT working, right? [22:56] Is it not possible to put a laptop to sleep with Kubuntu? [22:57] How to make changes in the "system setting" (control panel like). Thanks [22:58] i tryed to use themefisto__ startx give me a high resolution grey screen with a little cross as mouse pointer [22:58] FabParma- it should ask for your password if you change anything that requires root privileges [22:58] awesome support in here, really [22:59] Dragnslcr: no botton to elevate permission or insert password. it is normal? [23:00] I want my laptop to work with a screen resolution of 1280x800, because that's its default. I don't want to use the proprietary ATI driver, because it's broken and stupid. What are my options? [23:00] Dragnslcr: have i to launch "system setting" by console? [23:01] how to get full access in "system setting" [23:01] mefisto__ anyway when i try an apt-get , not working looks like no more connection [23:03] yoritomo: can you pastebin the output of sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade [23:04] sorry i am under windows, when i reboot on ubuntu, no internet connection then it can't do anything [23:04] but if necessary i can get the log [23:04] i need to change setting in "system setting", but i can read it only. No way to modificy [23:04] then we can guess the output [23:05] Can anybody tell me where I can access Kubuntu's automount configuration/options??? [23:05] I just tried dpkg-reconfigure and all it did was set up the keyboard. WTF? How do I reconfigure my video??? [23:05] FabParma: what setting do you want to change? [23:05] theres nothing under system setting sofr automount [23:06] ActionParsnip can you describe me waht to do , how to copy it in a file under terminal? [23:06] mefisto__: login [23:06] yoritomo: you need to get web access sorted in the system [23:06] login screen [23:07] what do you mean? [23:07] yoritomo: check ifconfig for an ip address then check nslookup of web addresses and see if you can web browse to you routers ip. can you ping web based ips and web based names to see if dns is failing [23:08] FabParma: so when you go to Login Manager, it doesn't ask for your password? [23:08] no [23:08] no bottons [23:09] nothing to elevate my level [23:09] FabParma- is your user a member of the admin group? [23:09] Dragnslcr: no idea, i installed it as default [23:09] yoritomo: you need to work out what you can and cant do [23:09] i go to check [23:10] FabParma: alt-F2 and type: kdesudo kcmshell4 kdm [23:10] FabParma: does that work? [23:10] Can anybody tell me where I can access Kubuntu's automount configuration/options? [23:11] i type ifconfig , i note the result, then i type nslookup followed by an ip ? [23:12] how do I disable transparency of the task panel in KDE 4.2? I would like to keep other eye candy tough [23:13] mefisto__: i go to try right now, thanks [23:14] Can somebody tell me whats wrong here. I entered "sudo mount /dev/sda1 Daten/". I got back following output "mount: unknown filesystem type „linux_raid_member“". /dev/sda1 is ntfs, why do I get "linux_raid_member"??? [23:14] fdisk -l /dev/sda tells me it's a "HPFS/NTFS" which is correct. [23:14] you didn't specify a filesystem type [23:15] ActionParsnip i don't know how to use nslookup can you give me an exemple please ? [23:15] sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /Daten [23:16] Hey all [23:16] I need mysql embedded and qtscript-qt, but can't find them in the reps for Kubuntu Jaunty... [23:16] Theriex: Sure this should work, but I want to fix the partition. :( [23:16] oh. just read the topic :) [23:18] floh: i'm not sure what you are trying to do, but you need to specify the filesystem type if you are trying to mount the device [23:19] yoritomo- nslookup www.example.com [23:19] yoritomo: nslookup www.google.com [23:19] Theriex: My problem is following. I can mount another NTFS-Partition (sdc1) without using "-t ntfs". With sda1 not. I think this is the cause, why sda1 doesn't appear in "location" in dolphin (kde4). :( [23:19] ah ok then i try this both things [23:19] flog: is the device part of a raid? [23:19] mefisto__: i'm sorry, dont works [23:20] floh: use ntfs-3g [23:20] Theriex: It *was* a part of software-raid. [23:20] how may i save the text on it ? should i use wim and how? [23:20] ya try the 3g [23:20] vim [23:20] ntfs-3g is already installed. [23:21] sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /Daten [23:21] Theriex: Sure... but I want to put sda1 into "locations" of dolphin. [23:21] floh: instead of -t ntfs use -t ntfs-3g [23:22] it won't show up unless its mounted afaik [23:22] i could be wrong [23:22] Theriex: WinXP (=sdb1) is showing in Dolphin even if it's not mounted. [23:22] floh: sudo mkdir /media/sda1; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 -t ntfs-3g -o uid=1000 [23:23] If I click on it, a dialog appears, where I have to enter sudo-password for mounting. [23:23] Dragnslcr ActionParsnip how may i save my messages on text mode ? [23:24] yoritomo: you can use >> to output to a text file [23:24] ActionParsnip: This would add sda1 into "locations" of Dolphin? [23:24] yoritomo: e.g. nslookup www.google.com >> ~/output.txt [23:24] Or just select what you want and use copy/paste [23:24] yes but how ? i don't know how to use vi and wim [23:24] I don't mean in browse-window, but in the left tab. Here it's called "Orte" (=Locations). [23:24] floh: it would mount it to /media/sda1 which you can then drag to places [23:25] ha using >> ? [23:25] i come back soon thanks i will give you these texts [23:26] FabParma: does the login manager window appear? [23:26] ActionParsnip: Yes, then a folder appears in "Places". But it wont mount if I click on sda1 in "Places". :( [23:26] floh: what happens when you click on it? [23:26] hi [23:26] hi there can someone tell me what's the path of the linux source? [23:26] <|PaperTiger|> I managed to delete my task bar, how do I get it back? [23:26] Theriex: An empty folder is opened. :( [23:27] Instead of prompting for sudo-password. [23:27] /usr/src [23:27] thx [23:27] Theriex: Do you think the MBR is broken so "autodetect" fails? [23:27] I am using quassel, but I have a small problem, how can I delete the old log in the chat window? [23:28] floh: does it show up in mtab? [23:28] "/dev/sdc1 /media/WinXP fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0" [23:28] This is sdc1 which works. sda1 is not in mtab. [23:29] ok so it still isn't mounting [23:29] Theriex: right. === fontknocker is now known as fontknocker|shop [23:29] Theriex: sdc1 is mounted by dolphin (after clicking on WinXP (=sdc1)). [23:29] floh: is this going to be permanently mounted? [23:29] floh: or just on the fly? [23:30] Theriex: No, if I boot my PC. It's not mounted. It's mounted on the fly (by dolphin). [23:30] floh: could always put an entry in fstab so its mounted at boot [23:30] floh: unless you don't want it that way [23:30] If I would try to access WinXP with terminal it won't be mounted. With Dolphin it'll be mounted. [23:31] Theriex: I don't like this way. I would prefer: "Mount only if needed". [23:31] Theriex: But thank you. [23:31] floh: ok i understand [23:31] floh: i've never actually tried doing it on the fly through dolphin... [23:32] Theriex: Maybe I have to try fixmbr sda, maybe master boot record is broken (by software-raid) since the harddisk was used as a part of raid1 in the past. [23:32] floh: hold on gonna give a try [23:32] Theriex: No problem. Thank you very much. @ActionParsnip, you too. :) [23:33] Theriex: What do you mean? [23:33] mounting through dolphin [23:34] ciao a tutti. ho un problema molto fastidioso con kubuntu. L'ho installato su mac mini e il monitor ogni circa 5 secondi si spegne per mezzo secondo, questo continuamente tipo intermittenza. cosa posso fare? [23:35] Theriex: I found a posting in internet.

[23:42] tnx very kind :D [23:42] floh: are you trying to access data on that drive? [23:43] Theriex: With WinXP it works fine. Here in Linux it works fine too (if I mount it manually with "-t ntfs").

[23:47] yes i don't know why it does not want to update [23:47] floh: I'm also wondering how dolphin mounts from "places". what is the location (right-click the button in places, edit)? [23:47] is there a kde 4 sound recorder? [23:48] mefisto__: The WinXP-Partition was already there. I didn't do anythin. It seems it automatically added while booting(?) respective login(?). [23:48] mefisto__: I already tried with 'grep -r WinXP .kde4' same in /etc/. But nothing found. [23:49] floh: ok, if you right-click the WinXP button in places, and "edit WinXP" what is in the "location" field? [23:49] mefisto__: I believe it autodetect ntfs partitions. [23:49] yoritomo: can you web browse ok? === eliboggs is now known as IPHATE [23:50] ActionParsnip on console mode ? [23:50] mefisto__: If I right-click, there is only ""WinXP" ausblenden" (not sure how ausblenden is called in English). [23:50] yoritomo: and other web based stuff, anything [23:50] floh: what if you put an entry in fstab for the device with noauto option [23:50] mefisto__: If WinXP is mounted, then there is 2nd choice which I can umount it. [23:50] floh: then it doesn't mount automatically, should show up in dolphin and only mount when you click on it?? [23:51] Theriex: right. It mount if I click on WinXP in "Places". [23:51] ActionParsnip i will make some aptget trial and submit the results ok ? [23:51] floh: nod i'm curious if the WinXP device is in fstab with noauto set aswell [23:51] Theriex: in /media/ there wasn't WinXP-Folder before mounting. After mounting it appears automatically. [23:51] yoritomo: can you web browse and stuff too? [23:51] There is no such entry in fstab. [23:51] really [23:51] Theriex: Really. [23:51] hrmm ok, just a thought :) [23:52] how to do that ? [23:52] Theriex: I already looked into it, because I wanted to add sda1. But there is nothing about WinXP nor sdb1 in fstab. [23:52] floh: thats curious, i thought you always had to have the floder pre made [23:52] Theriex: I already tried to add sda1 into fstab, but it still doesn't appears in "Places". [23:53] Theriex: floder? [23:53] folder [23:53] Theriex: lol. :) [23:53] ActionParsnip how can i browse on console mode ? [23:54] Theriex: The folder /media/WinXP appears first, if I clicked on "WinXP" in "Places" and entered sudo-password. [23:54] yoritomo: w3m [23:54] Theriex: If I rightclick on "WinXP" and press on "Umount", then /media/WinXP disappears. This is useful for me. [23:54] Theriex: Do you have NTFS-Partition? [23:55] floh: yes i have a Win-XP as well [23:55] is there a kde 4 sound recorder anyone? [23:55] Theriex: And these Partition is not in "Places" right? [23:55] yes it is [23:56] Theriex: Can you mount these partition without '-t ntfs'? [23:56] floh: most likely since it is defined in my fstab [23:56] ActionParsnip w3m www.google.com ? [23:56] Theriex: Just 'mount /dev/sdXY /media/mountpoint" [23:56] yoritomo: indeed [23:56] Theriex: Ok... would it work if you commented out the line in fstab? [23:57] let me try [23:57] Theriex: Ok. [23:57] argh [23:57] ok let me try i will come soon [23:57] * cale_ kikoo [23:59] floh: yes and no [23:59] Theriex: What yes what no? [23:59] floh: i can as long as the directory that I am mounting to exists [23:59] Theriex: You mean the directory as mountpoint?
