| cornelius13 | hi | 06:12 |
| cornelius13 | i'm having trouble installing flash 10 on 64 bit firefox. i'm thinking it has something to do with the fact i force installed flash 9 beta for firefox32 | 06:14 |
| cornelius13 | everytime I do an apt-get install firefox-3 (or -2) i get ugly error messages that say the packages are broken | 06:14 |
| cornelius13 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/145960/ | 06:14 |
| cornelius13 | i'm using the install script from here: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/install-flash-10-ubuntu-linux-64bit.html | 06:15 |
| cornelius13 | but it seems irrelevant until i can get the 64 bit version reinstalled | 06:15 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: try this: sudo dpkg --purge firefox-3.0 firefox2 | 06:27 |
| cornelius13 | tried it, then i got this: E: Couldn't find package firefox-3 | 06:28 |
| cornelius13 | when i tried to apt-get install it again | 06:29 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: did you do it to firefox-3 or firefox-3.0? | 06:29 |
| cornelius13 | neither | 06:29 |
| cornelius13 | never installed it | 06:29 |
| cornelius13 | that i recall anyways | 06:29 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: and it said that E.... line after you tried to purge it? | 06:29 |
| cornelius13 | i've been using firefox32 with flash 9 beta | 06:30 |
| cornelius13 | no, it purged fine | 06:30 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: and after purging did dpkg --configure -a succeed? :D | 06:30 |
| cornelius13 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/145972/ | 06:30 |
| cornelius13 | yes | 06:31 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: of course installing firefox-3 would fail, the package name is firefox-3.0 | 06:31 |
| cornelius13 | ah ha | 06:31 |
| cornelius13 | well then clearly i'm a turd | 06:32 |
| cornelius13 | bah | 06:32 |
| cornelius13 | that failed too | 06:32 |
| dwidmann | really? It shouldn't :\ | 06:32 |
| cornelius13 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/145973/ | 06:33 |
| cornelius13 | something screwy with /var/cache/apt/archives/xulrunner-1.9_1.9.0.8+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1_amd64.deb | 06:33 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: maybe it's conflicting with firefox32? It's possible | 06:33 |
| cornelius13 | dwidmann: i agree, but i don't know how to fix that | 06:34 |
| cornelius13 | if i uninstall firefox32 will i lose my bookmarks? | 06:34 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: bookmarks should be safe | 06:34 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: they're in a config folder in your home dir | 06:34 |
| cornelius13 | k | 06:35 |
| cornelius13 | hmm | 06:35 |
| cornelius13 | apt-get remove firefox32 isn't working either | 06:35 |
| dwidmann | cornelius13: and the error for it? | 06:36 |
| dwidmann | Small note ... a 32-bit browser shouldn't be required for Flash anymore (which is now version 10, not 9beta) ... java plugin is another story though | 06:37 |
| cornelius13 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/145975/ | 06:37 |
| cornelius13 | i know | 06:37 |
| cornelius13 | i did it a long long time ago | 06:38 |
| dwidmann | Thought I'd point that out just in case (I've been along for the ride for years too) | 06:38 |
| cornelius13 | ya i just heard of flash 10 like a few days ago | 06:39 |
| cornelius13 | and firefox has been crashing so much due to flash lately that i can't wait to upgrade | 06:39 |
| dwidmann | try this: sudo dpkg --remove firefox-3.0 xulrunner-1.9 | 06:39 |
| dwidmann | I wish you luck on that (I'm not sure how stable it is ... Opera is treating me fairly okay though) | 06:40 |
| cornelius13 | bah | 06:40 |
| cornelius13 | well i removed firefox32 | 06:41 |
| dwidmann | without errors this time I hope? | 06:41 |
| cornelius13 | yeah that worked | 06:41 |
| cornelius13 | but installing 3.0 didn't | 06:41 |
| dwidmann | There might be more things that you need to remove for it to happen | 06:42 |
| dwidmann | Remove the package(s) that it's conflicting with, then attempt the install again, if it errors again then repeat | 06:44 |
| cornelius13 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/145979/ | 06:44 |
| cornelius13 | it's xulrunner | 06:44 |
| cornelius13 | maybe i got the package name wrong | 06:45 |
| dwidmann | remove j2re1.4 | 06:45 |
| dwidmann | (it's kind of ancient anyway ... what with java 1.6 being the current, and 1.7 hopefully not too far off) | 06:46 |
| cornelius13 | geez | 06:46 |
| cornelius13 | ever since my troubles with my nvidia drivers i've tried to avoid updates unless absolutely necessary | 06:47 |
| cornelius13 | score! | 06:47 |
| cornelius13 | i think that did it | 06:47 |
| neptunepink | coi prenu, I've apt-get source'd a program, how do I apply the patch? Or do I not need to? | 06:48 |
| cornelius13 | yep | 06:48 |
| neptunepink | oh, lovely, it even says it applied it.... | 06:51 |
| cornelius13 | goody, that flash install script worked fine | 06:54 |

Once certain things got updated I got a message that kdm will need to be restarted. So would you like to do that right now - I click yes. And kdm restarted and then I got a terminal login screen I restated and then I get the gnome logic screen and it says it can't find kde.. all the kde software except for konsversation have | 11:50 |

| Gabrielsk8 | hello, peoples | 11:50 |
| shlunk | hi all - i'm having some trouble with a new install of kubuntu | 11:51 |
| shlunk | i enabled desktop effects, and now all i have is a black screen with some grey windows | 11:52 |
| shlunk | even after restarting the machine | 11:52 |
| shlunk | is there anyway of booting into text mode and editing the settings manually? | 11:52 |
| ActionParsnip | shlunk: have you installed video drivers? are you fully updated | 11:53 |
| shlunk | fully updated, but i hadn't installed the drivers - i have a radeon 4870 | 11:53 |
| the_dark_warrio | I've done the last update for Kubuntu 9.04 Beta, and grub have striped off the windows entry. Any hints? | 11:53 |
| ActionParsnip | shlunk: for text mode, hit enter at grub and select recovery mode for your kernel, you can then drop to root console and repair from there, or even make a new user and boot to that | 11:54 |
| ActionParsnip | shlunk: d'oh | 11:54 |
| amik | hi, I've got a problem where desktop effects make the pc totally unusable (stuck), how do I start going about diagnosing and fixing this? | 11:54 |
| ActionParsnip | shlunk: i think if you rename your users ~/.kde folder and reboot it will be ok | 11:54 |
| shlunk | brilliant, than you | 11:54 |
| shlunk | *thank | 11:54 |
| ActionParsnip | shlunk: if its still bad, rename back | 11:55 |

| amik | ActionParsnip: what am I looking for? (I'm after a reboot without desktop effects right now - would I still see errors from previous boots?) | 12:05 |
| ActionParsnip | amik: the logs are cleared after reboot, install openssh-server and when it crashes, ssh in from another system to read logs to find out whats going on | 12:06 |
| ActionParsnip | amik: make sure you are fully up to date with: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 12:07 |
| amik | ActionParsnip: I am - I even did the upgrade to jaunty beta hoping it is fixed in the latest nvidia drivers and/or whatever is broken. now I can't revert back to 177 drivers since they don't exist in jaunty | 12:08 |
| ActionParsnip | amik: you could try the ones from www.nvidia.com | 12:11 |
| amik | ActionParsnip: it's the same version as in jaunty (180.44) - the latest. | 12:13 |

| ActionParsnip | xp-killer: try: sudo apt-get --reinstall install flashplugin-nonfree | 12:16 |
| amik | ActionParsnip: I've done an interpid upgrade to jaunty as well. there's no problem with resolution - the whole machine just freezes when it starts up (only hard reboot helps). occasionally it allows a tiny bit of mouse movement at a time. sometimes parts of the screen go black. sometimes the mouse moves ok but nothing responds other than that. it's quite unstable and totally unusable. | 12:16 |
| ActionParsnip | xp-killer: then close all konquerors and rerun it | 12:16 |
| ActionParsnip | amik: then i'd ssh in to see whats shakin | 12:17 |
| amik | ActionParsnip: to be exact it freezes after the login screen when the kde desktop shows up | 12:17 |
| amik | ActionParsnip: I'll try that. so I just do dmesg and look for something funny? | 12:18 |
| ActionParsnip | amik: use dmesg | less | 12:18 |
| ActionParsnip | amik: also read /var/log/xorg.log.0 ( ithink its that) | 12:18 |

| lokai | KiB = kilobytes, right? (I'm looking at the bmon graphical display) | 13:15 |
| MarkieMark1 | Binary kilobytes = 2^10 bytes | 13:15 |
| MarkieMark1 | as compared to KB = decimal | 13:15 |
| MarkieMark1 | officially | 13:15 |
| lokai | Well. From experience, I know that my upstream bandwidth is around 20 kilobytes/sec. But, bmon is saying that I'm uploading at around 60+KiB/sec | 13:16 |
| lokai | That doesn't make sense, does it? | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | you can use Ko if you wanna look smart, MarkieMark1 | 13:16 |
| MarkieMark1 | ActionParsnip: I have to occasionally, I'm in France :) | 13:16 |

| ante__ | So even though you can't buy 32-bit systems, it's the way to get flash and java to work!? No wonder peole run Windows... | 15:54 |
| Unksi | flash works on 64bit straight away on ubuntu | 15:54 |
| Guest80342 | I have been playing aroudn with this box for a while. I have almost everything to my satisfaction. | 15:54 |
| Eruaran | ante_: I don't believe that is the case | 15:54 |
| Unksi | java does not | 15:54 |
| BluesKaj | Eruaran, like I just said 32bit kubuntu runs fine on 64 bit amd | 15:54 |
| Guest80342 | Flash works in Firefox. | 15:55 |
| Eruaran | BluesKaj: ty | 15:55 |
| Guest80342 | Just cannot get the damn taskbar to drop outa site. | 15:55 |
| Unksi | ante__: 32bit works well with 64bit hardware :) | 15:55 |
| Unksi | and on windows, most software is only 32bit anyway, even if you run 64bit version of windows | 15:55 |
| Guest80342 | Oh, and maybe doesn't play DVD's yet. | 15:55 |
| Guest80342 | I have been sticking with Linux mint for a long time now. | 15:55 |
| Guest80342 | It's a breath of fresh air when right after doing a Linux mint install, a DVD plays with no probs. | 15:56 |
| BluesKaj | Unksi , yes on gnome , but there are probs with flash on 64bit cpus running kde | 15:56 |
| Eruaran | I had a customer today who wanted to switch his Vista system to 32bit Vista becuase his wireless ISP did not provide 64bit drivers (and neither did the manufacturer). | 15:56 |
| Unksi | BluesKaj: hmm? works well here | 15:56 |
| BluesKaj | Unksi, gnome or kde ? | 15:57 |
| Unksi | kde | 15:57 |
| Eruaran | So its not like lack of 64bit support affects Linux only | 15:57 |
| Unksi | havent used gnome since breezy :p | 15:57 |
| ante__ | So java don' | 15:57 |
| Guest80342 | I wonder if it's not too late to go to KDE 3.5.9 or whatever it is. | 15:57 |
| ante__ | So java don't work on 64 bit, but flash does? | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | which distro , Unksi ? | 15:58 |
| Unksi | ante__: yes | 15:58 |
| Unksi | BluesKaj: sidux and kubuntu intrepid | 15:58 |
| * ante__ sighs | 15:58 | |
| ante_ | ah, stop hilighting me | 15:58 |
| Guest80342 | I might download Debian and do a install. Just to see what it's like. | 15:58 |
| Guest80342 | I am a member of the Fort Worth Linux Users Group. | 15:59 |
| Guest80342 | FWLUG.org | 15:59 |
| ante_ | Debian is fukken win | 15:59 |
| BluesKaj | which graphics card, Unksi ..I'm curious because I'm running nvidia geforde 7600GT | 15:59 |
| BluesKaj | geforce | 15:59 |
| Unksi | BluesKaj: with intrepid, geforce 8400m | 15:59 |
| Guest80342 | I have a 6200 Le which is working ok. | 16:00 |
| BluesKaj | on 64bit , Guest80342 ? | 16:00 |
| Guest80342 | But I have tons of 32 meg nvidia cards that seem to do compiz fine. | 16:00 |
| Eruaran | With 64-bit you can still run 32-bit programs that are unavailable in 64-bit like Skype and Google Earth, and there are 64-bit Flash/Java out now that work nicely. Personally I find there is nothing holding anyone back from going 64-bit if their computer is capable. | 16:00 |
| Guest80342 | yes sir eee. BluesKaj | 16:01 |
| Guest80342 | Even do the wobbly windows. | 16:01 |

| Guest80342 | The problem with Debian, I'll have to figure out what and how to install everything you need. Like flash, and MP3 player, and DVD decryption, and what else i don't know. | 16:02 |
| Guest80342 | I have done them all here and there. Some time ago. But with Linux mint adding all the prprietary stuff. Was alot easier. | 16:03 |

| ante__ | Eruaran: Do you have a link? The forum is filled with questions about java and 32/64 bit and little of it works and makes sense | 16:11 |

| compilerwriter | I know this is a serious mistake to make permanently, but for the sake of testing something temporarily besides sudo passwd root how does one go about allowing root to have gui login? | 16:48 |
| fosco__ | compilerwriter, you'd better skip that, there are several alternatives to login as root | 16:49 |
| Dragnslcr | compilerwriter- you should be able to become root from a shell and then start X manually | 16:49 |
| compilerwriter | I know. I am currently testing a program that needs root to have a gui. I will disable the account once the test is completely | 16:50 |
| compilerwriter | ok. | 16:50 |
| Dragnslcr | Dunno if just doing startx will work correctly or not | 16:50 |
| fosco__ | a "root GUI" doesn't need login as root nor starting X as root | 16:50 |
| Dragnslcr | If it's a single program that needs root, you can start it with kdesudo | 16:51 |
| compilerwriter | That is what will be tried next. | 16:51 |
| compilerwriter | thanks dragnslcr | 16:51 |
| compilerwriter | running startx did not work well guys. | 16:53 |
| yaa_ | what s the difference between ls and dir | 16:53 |
| compilerwriter | Is there a way to get kdm to allow such thing temporarily? | 16:53 |
| === theresia is now known as wedgeV | ||
| wedgeV | hi, i'm trying to install kde 4.2.2 but get some unavailable package errors, i.e.: libstreams0 and libstreamanalyzer are not available | 16:55 |
| compilerwriter | fosco__ is there a way to get kdm to allow such a login? Beleive me, I will reverse course later. | 16:56 |
| fosco__ | yes, but i will not help to damage your system | 16:57 |
| fosco__ | use sudo program or sudo -i to get a root shell | 16:57 |
| fosco__ | do not login as root | 16:57 |
| Dragnslcr | yaa_- ls lists all of the files and directories within a directory. dir is not a Linux command | 16:58 |
| compilerwriter | Fosco__ I promise I will put it all back to the way it was. I just need to do this for a few minutes. | 16:58 |
| yaa_ | man dir | 16:58 |
| ante__ | For those who care, FF3 vomits with 64 bit java plugin | 16:59 |
| Zengol | Could someone tell me the command line to check if i have DRI enabled? | 16:59 |
| ante__ | FF2 smiles and shows an empty box | 16:59 |
| fosco__ | !root | 16:59 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 16:59 |
| Dragnslcr | compilerwriter- didn't you say it was just one program that needed root permission? | 16:59 |
| yaa_ | dir IS a linux command in my ubuntu)) | 16:59 |
| Dragnslcr | Hm, I wonder when that happened | 17:00 |
| compilerwriter | yes dragnslcr there is one program at moment but it wants me utilizing it as root with gui. | 17:00 |
| Dragnslcr | compilerwriter- then run it with kdesudo | 17:00 |
| Dragnslcr | You shouldn't need to have X or KDE running as a root for a single program | 17:00 |
| Dragnslcr | If you do, I would avoid that program at all costs | 17:01 |

| Dragnslcr | yaa_- well that's a new one for me. I've always just used ls. From the man page, it doesn't look like there's a difference | 17:02 |
| Zengol | What version of Nix is everyone running here? | 17:03 |
| fosco__ | yaa_, dir is an alias for ls | 17:04 |
| yaa_ | which ls / compare/ whish dir | 17:04 |
| Dragnslcr | fosco__- they're two different files, not a symlink | 17:05 |
| Dragnslcr | Or a bash alias | 17:05 |
| fosco__ | ummm it used to be an alias | 17:05 |
| fosco__ | i must be wrong, sorry | 17:05 |
| Dragnslcr | The binaries are about the same size, though, so they're probably pretty much the same code | 17:05 |
| === donn is now known as donn_ | ||
| yaa_ | maybe | 17:06 |
| Dragnslcr | I didn't think it was a real program, either | 17:06 |
| donn_ | hi all | 17:06 |
| fosco__ | yaa_, anyway, ls options are dir options, so man ls is ok for you | 17:07 |
| yaa_ | ok thanx | 17:07 |

| Arminius_ | hello | 17:12 |
| Arminius_ | I got some trouble with updating kde to 4.2 | 17:13 |
| Arminius_ | I had a look at the howtos and apparently you need to use adept | 17:13 |
| Arminius_ | but when I search for KDE 4.2, I don't get any update... | 17:14 |
| Arminius_ | there is no package that looks like it... | 17:14 |
| ante__ | you have to add a backport repository | 17:14 |
| Arminius_ | thanks... what's that? | 17:14 |
| ante__ | 4.2 is in the next kubundu (whatever it's called) | 17:14 |
| fosco__ | jaunty | 17:14 |
| ante__ | thx | 17:15 |
| ante__ | I have forgottten the url for it | 17:15 |
| ante__ | Let me see if I can find it | 17:15 |
| Arminius_ | I wanted to wait just a little bit with intrepid, and update the kde there | 17:15 |
| Arminius_ | thanks a lot! | 17:15 |
| Arminius_ | and is it normal that I didn't get any notification to update my KDE? | 17:16 |
| ante__ | if the branch is not in your version of kubuntu, I'd say yes | 17:16 |
| BentFranklin | when is 9.4 due out? | 17:16 |
| Arminius_ | ok | 17:16 |
| ante__ | ok, my sshd isn't answering at my home machine so I can't check the url. Try searching for jaunty backbort repository or something | 17:17 |
| Arminius_ | hem how does that work? I have to add a new source or something like that? | 17:17 |
| ante__ | yes | 17:18 |
| fosco__ | BentFranklin, april 23 | 17:18 |
| Arminius_ | ok | 17:18 |
| ante__ | edit /etc/apt/sources or use a GUI | 17:18 |
| Arminius_ | ok thanks :) | 17:18 |
| ante__ | It would be ironic if I manage to help someone after having spent hours not being able to help myself installing a fucking java plugin.... | 17:19 |

| Guest37760 | i want to know the patition sdb1 where does it mounted i have 3 partitions and it doesnt mounted automaticly i want to know where does each partition mounted in| | 17:19 |
| Arminius_ | oh two questions left... I didn't find any wiping programm on Adept... is that normal? | 17:21 |
| jayhunold | Arminius_: What do you mean with "wiping" ? | 17:22 |
| Arminius_ | well completly erase | 17:22 |
| ante__ | erase your hd? use dd with input from /dev/zero | 17:22 |
| Arminius_ | dd? | 17:23 |
| ante__ | dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda | 17:23 |
| jayhunold | yes. that is sufficient. | 17:23 |
| ante__ | but adapt hda to your disk | 17:23 |
| Arminius_ | I mean you know when you erase a file, it just dealocates the space on the disk, but you can find it back pretty easily | 17:23 |
| Arminius_ | o | 17:24 |
| Arminius_ | k | 17:24 |
| Arminius_ | thanks :) | 17:24 |
| ante__ | just zeroing the last file erased takes some more work, but I guess it can be done. | 17:24 |
| Arminius_ | but there is no programms like in windows? | 17:25 |
| Arminius_ | nothing like disk redactor | 17:25 |
| Arminius_ | ? | 17:25 |

| picketfence | Ok, so which one does Intrepid work with for purposes of installing certain packages? | 20:03 |
| picketfence | For example, since I'm trying to get the BroadCom to work, which Ubuntu version do I follow? Apparently I am using Kubuntu Intrepid. | 20:05 |
| Dragnslcr | You'd follow the instructions for Intrepid | 20:05 |

| Arminius_ | hi | 20:13 |
| Arminius_ | I've got a problem with the KDE update | 20:14 |
| Arminius_ | ... again ... | 20:15 |
| aga | what's up? | 20:15 |
| Arminius_ | well I added the source to adept to be able to fetch the new packages | 20:16 |
| Arminius_ | and it finally tells me I got some updates to make | 20:16 |
| Arminius_ | but instead of "upgrade" is automatically chooses remove | 20:16 |
| Arminius_ | for a lot of important packages...! | 20:16 |
| Arminius_ | and I'm afraid to click ok... | 20:16 |
| aga | hmmm have you checked which packages are going to be removed? | 20:17 |
| aga | like details? | 20:17 |
| Arminius_ | yeah for example | 20:18 |
| aga | it may be removing old kde 4.2.1 packages to install 4.2.2 cant you see any installation in between? | 20:18 |
| Arminius_ | ksystemlog: installed -reùpve | 20:18 |
| Arminius_ | remove sorry... | 20:18 |
| aga | hmmmm | 20:18 |
| Arminius_ | krdc: upgradable-remove | 20:18 |
| aga | i dunno, really, never upgraded like that | 20:18 |
| Arminius_ | kdebase-workspace-libs4+5: upgradable-remove | 20:19 |
| Arminius_ | etc... | 20:19 |
| Arminius_ | don't you ugrade via adept??? | 20:19 |
| aga | nope | 20:19 |
| === KennethP__ is now known as KennethP | ||
| Arminius_ | via konsole? | 20:19 |
| aga | yeap i am used to do it from konsole, is easier and faster for me | 20:20 |
| Arminius_ | and what's the command line for there? | 20:20 |
| aga | sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade | 20:20 |
| Arminius_ | only aptitude? | 20:21 |
| aga | same for apt-get | 20:21 |
| aga | you can also use sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 20:21 |
| aga | anyway, if adept is telling to remove, bash will tell you to remove | 20:21 |
| Arminius_ | ok and that will upgrade the whole kde | 20:21 |
| Arminius_ | ah | 20:21 |
| aga | the thing Arminius_ is that i also add the sources from konsole | 20:22 |
| aga | but the result is the same if you use aptitude | 20:22 |
| Arminius_ | aptitude is what exactly? | 20:22 |
| aga | aptitude and apt are very similar if not the same | 20:23 |
| aga | frontends for dpkg if i am not wrong | 20:23 |
| Arminius_ | ok | 20:23 |
| aga | couldnt really tell the difference | 20:23 |
| Arminius_ | do you think there is anyone here that could tell me with certainty if it's ok to remove all those critical packages? | 20:24 |
| Arminius_ | I just don't want to mess up... | 20:24 |
| Arminius_ | :s | 20:24 |
| aga | i know.. is hard to say... i normally prefer to use the terminal because i can use pastebin to show whats going on | 20:25 |
| Arminius_ | ah ok | 20:25 |
| Arminius_ | I'll try that way | 20:25 |
| Arminius_ | you are right! | 20:25 |
| Arminius_ | good idea :D | 20:25 |

| === almox is now known as Gabrielsk8 | ||
| aga | Arminius_: anyway, now that i notice | 20:33 |
| aga | adept was just telling you the options for that package | 20:34 |
| aga | upgradable - remove | 20:34 |
| aga | means you can either upgrade or remove it, because you cannot install it | 20:34 |
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ | ||
| === blackwaltz is now known as dwidmann | ||
| Arminius_ | ok | 20:35 |
| Arminius_ | but when I switched the options, the packages came back to remove | 20:35 |
| Arminius_ | maybe I just lagged or something ^^ | 20:36 |
| aga | hmm no no its just about how adept looks i just checked mine | 20:36 |
| Arminius_ | so I did the right thing not removing ;) | 20:36 |
| aga | it says in green upgradable or in red remove | 20:36 |
| Arminius_ | yeah I had two things I could check, remove or upgrade | 20:37 |
| aga | anyway i just use the terminal | 20:37 |
| aga | its faster for me | 20:37 |
| Arminius_ | yeah | 20:37 |
| Arminius_ | just not used to it yet ;) | 20:37 |

| AimoParru | hello all! | 20:51 |
| ubuntu | hi | 20:51 |
| picketfence | :ubuntu: Thank you, I didn't think of that. | 20:51 |
| AimoParru | apt-get autoremove took my all kernel images away | 20:51 |
| ubuntu | what | 20:51 |
| ubuntu | oh | 20:52 |
| ubuntu | n[ | 20:52 |
| AimoParru | is there anyt way how to get the images back | 20:52 |
| ubuntu | np* | 20:52 |
| ubuntu | hey aimo | 20:53 |
| AimoParru | yes! | 20:53 |
| ubuntu | try reinstalling it | 20:53 |
| ubuntu | i don't see any other way | 20:53 |
| AimoParru | How to reinstall just the kernel | 20:53 |
| ubuntu | whole system | 20:53 |
| AimoParru | You have to be kidding. | 20:53 |
| ubuntu | ok | 20:53 |
| ubuntu | try this | 20:53 |
| ubuntu | do you have access to your konsole | 20:54 |
| AimoParru | With live cd, yes | 20:54 |
| AimoParru | without livecd only grub loads | 20:54 |
| ubuntu | then you're screwed! | 20:54 |
| AimoParru | there has to be a way to just install the kernel. | 20:55 |
| ubuntu | that means that your system is preaty muck dead | 20:55 |
| ubuntu | much* | 20:55 |
| ubuntu | sry | 20:55 |
| AimoParru | I've got the whole file system still running | 20:55 |
| AimoParru | only kernel images are missing | 20:55 |
| ubuntu | yeah but you don't have the access to your systems files | 20:56 |
| AimoParru | Really?!? | 20:56 |
| ubuntu | and without that you can't reinstall kernel | 20:56 |
| ubuntu | if you have any important files use your live cd to back them up | 20:56 |
| AimoParru | Oh deer! | 20:56 |
| ubuntu | sry | 20:57 |
| ubuntu | :) | 20:57 |
| ubuntu | :(* | 20:57 |
| AimoParru | Is there anyt "fix this installation" button? | 20:57 |
| ubuntu | my keyboard is screwed with kubuntu | 20:57 |
| ubuntu | no that i can think of | 20:57 |
| ubuntu | the only options are a clean install and a new partition install | 20:58 |
| AimoParru | Whoa, I'm speechless. | 20:58 |
| Arminius_ | hello | 20:59 |
| ubuntu | hi | 20:59 |
| Arminius_ | I'm back | 20:59 |
| Dragnslcr | AimoParru- there aren't any kernel images at all left? That seems like a weird thing for autoremove to do | 20:59 |
| Arminius_ | and still in trouble with the update :s | 20:59 |
| AimoParru | Dragnslcr: No, they are all gone. | 20:59 |
| aga | are you sure it did not remove the old kernel images Dragnslcr? | 20:59 |
| ubuntu | sry man but you're really fucked cause the kernel is the linux itself (basicly linux IS kernel) | 21:00 |
| AimoParru | yes | 21:00 |
| aga | AimoParru: open a terminal and write uname -r | 21:00 |
| aga | i think it was -r | 21:00 |
| Dragnslcr | AimoParru- what do you get when you get to the grub menu? | 21:00 |
| AimoParru | aga: It's running on livecd | 21:01 |
| ubuntu | he can only get to the console using live cd | 21:01 |
| === jeiworth_ is now known as jeiworth | ||
| AimoParru | Dragnslcr: there is only grub | 21:01 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Gushter | ||
| aga | aha ok | 21:01 |
| AimoParru | I can load the kernel with that but there is no image | 21:02 |
| Gushter | you probably ger error 15 or 17 | 21:02 |
| AimoParru | yes | 21:02 |
| AimoParru | 15 | 21:02 |
| Gushter | there u go | 21:02 |
| Gushter | that means that grub can't detect your system | 21:02 |
| Gushter | and cannot boot it | 21:02 |
| Dragnslcr | Might be able to boot from a LiveCD and copy a new kernel image file to /boot | 21:03 |
| Gushter | i had a simmilar problem | 21:03 |
| AimoParru | It can detect but there are no images, | 21:03 |
| AimoParru | Dragnslcr: How? | 21:03 |
| Gushter | dragnslcr: no way | 21:03 |
| Gushter | because he cannot access his system files cause they are locked | 21:03 |
| Noughmad | Gushter: why not? | 21:03 |
| Noughmad | AimoParru: how are they locked exactly? | 21:04 |
| Gushter | because he cannot access his system files cause they are locked | 21:04 |
| Gushter | Linux files aren't like windows'! | 21:04 |
| Gushter | they are locked and can be accessed ONLY by the system admin (A.K.A. distro) | 21:05 |
| Noughmad | how? | 21:05 |
| Dragnslcr | Gushter- I'm not sure if it would work, since the kernel image might not match his system, but there's no way there could be any kind of lock | 21:05 |
| Gushter | or with a localy used sudo option! | 21:05 |
| Gushter | read above! | 21:05 |
| Gushter | i had a simmilar prob | 21:06 |
| AimoParru | And you had to reinstall the whole system? | 21:06 |
| Gushter | basicly yes | 21:06 |
| AimoParru | OH BOY | 21:06 |
| AimoParru | sorry for yelling | 21:06 |
| Noughmad | AimoParru: What's preventing you from "sudo apt-get install linux" ? | 21:06 |
| Dragnslcr | You should be able to write to the /boot directory as root, even if you boot from a LiveCD | 21:06 |
| AimoParru | I'll try | 21:07 |
| Gushter | Noughmad: thats stupid! | 21:07 |
| Gushter | there is a similar option but it varies from distro to distro | 21:07 |
| Noughmad | Gushter: thanks | 21:07 |
| AimoParru | is it? | 21:07 |
| Noughmad | why is it stupid if I may ask? | 21:07 |
| Gushter | yes | 21:07 |
| mprice | Should be able to chroot into the borked system with a liveCD and fix it that way | 21:08 |
| Gushter | look above | 21:08 |
| AimoParru | mprice: Can it be done? | 21:08 |
| Gushter | mprice: thats preaty clever | 21:08 |
| Gushter | i haven't tried that | 21:08 |
| Noughmad | Gushter: I'm looking above, and all I can see is you flaming helpful people | 21:08 |
| AimoParru | so, how do I do that? | 21:08 |
| Dragnslcr | Noughmad- that wouldn't work unless you can boot into the system | 21:08 |
| Gushter | noughmad: there is a similar option but it varies from distro to distro | 21:09 |
| mprice | I have fixed mine before like that | 21:09 |
| Dragnslcr | Or do some tricky stuff with mounting so that apt thinks that /boot on that partition is where it should put the kernel image | 21:09 |
| wvmac_ | what sound backend is kubuntu 9.04 using. i can't find a running process that looks like a sound backend | 21:09 |
| AimoParru | Tell me, please. It's my wife's computer | 21:09 |
| Gushter | mprice: but did you use sudo or not | 21:09 |
| Gushter | aimoparru: calm down | 21:10 |
| AimoParru | i'll try | 21:10 |
| mprice | don't remember its been a little while | 21:10 |
| Gushter | we'll fix it | 21:10 |
| mprice | is sudo broke on his system? | 21:10 |
| Gushter | mprice: only the kernel images | 21:10 |
| AimoParru | It's running on LiveCD | 21:10 |
| AimoParru | yes, kernel images are missing. | 21:10 |
| mprice | does the live cd have networking that works? | 21:11 |
| AimoParru | yes | 21:11 |
| Dragnslcr | wvmac_- I thought pulseaudio, but it might be phonon or alsa. Might want to ask in #ubuntu+1 | 21:11 |
| mprice | okay | 21:11 |
| Gushter | mprice: that would work only if he uses the original kernel | 21:11 |
| AimoParru | network is working | 21:12 |
| Gushter | mprice: if he updated the kernel (which i'm preaty sure he did) that would only mess his system more | 21:13 |
| === Mr_Grieves| is now known as Mr_Grieves|afk | ||
| AimoParru | Can it just copy new kernel image? | 21:14 |
| Gushter | NO! | 21:14 |
| AimoParru | Why? | 21:14 |
| Gushter | that would only mess it up more | 21:14 |
| Gushter | did you update the sistem | 21:14 |
| Gushter | at all | 21:14 |
| AimoParru | Yes. That is the reason why it got broken. | 21:14 |
| Dragnslcr | AimoParru- you can try copying the kernel image from somewhere else, but it's certainly not guaranteed to work | 21:15 |
| Gushter | that means that you have a newer kernel that is on the cd | 21:15 |
| AimoParru | yes | 21:15 |
| AimoParru | but if the image is taken from the network? | 21:15 |
| Gushter | so I wouldn't try it | 21:15 |
| Gushter | image is not like a file! | 21:16 |
| Gushter | you cannot just copy it | 21:16 |
| Noughmad | AimoParru: mount the original drive, chroot into it, and sudo apt-get install linux | 21:16 |
| Dragnslcr | Gushter- er, actually, it is just a file. Everything in Unix is just a file | 21:16 |
| AimoParru | what is that gonna do? | 21:16 |
| Dragnslcr | Well, it might be more than one file, but you get the idea | 21:17 |
| mprice | reinstall your kernel | 21:17 |
| Noughmad | install the kernel if it works, otherwise nothing | 21:17 |
| travail | Hey! | 21:17 |
| AimoParru | can aptitude reconfigure the kernel. | 21:17 |
| Gushter | yeah but it also contains the settings from the PC! Don't forgert that | 21:17 |
| Dragnslcr | Unix is not like Windows and its registry | 21:17 |
| mprice | at least backup anything important before you try it, AimoParru | 21:17 |
| travail | Am I the only one who can't connect to msn with Kopete? | 21:17 |
| Gushter | yeah but windows also has a kernel | 21:17 |
| Dragnslcr | Sure, so it might not work, but it's worth a try | 21:17 |
| Gushter | yeah | 21:18 |
| Gushter | at least | 21:18 |
| AimoParru | How to chroot to the system? | 21:18 |
| Gushter | you have nothing to lose at all | 21:18 |
| mprice | !chroot | 21:18 |
| ubottu | chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory.

| brian_ | then again i remove the system tray and add it once more | 21:31 |
| AimoParru | Noughmad: I think I first copy the files in safe | 21:31 |
| Noughmad | ok, smart :) | 21:32 |

| Noughmad | Arminius_: what? | 21:36 |
| brian_ | Do u know the Hot key to access Desktop? | 21:36 |
| Arminius_ | well Noughmad, I tried to update to KDE 4.2 via the konsole (apt-get upgrade and update) and there was no problem but when I check Adept for example it tells me I am still on KDE 4.1 (I rebooted) | 21:37 |
| Noughmad | brian_: Ctrl+Fx switches to desktop number x, if that is of any help | 21:37 |
| Arminius_ | and when I try doing it via adept, it wants me to deinstall vital packages | 21:37 |
| Arminius_ | so I don't know what to do? | 21:37 |
| aga | Arminius_: open the help and check the kde version | 21:38 |
| Noughmad | The stadndard procedure is to run "sudo dpkg --cenfigure -a" and "sudo apt-get install -f" | 21:38 |
| Arminius_ | 4.1.4 | 21:38 |
| brian_ | Noughmad your tips abt hotkey is really good,, | 21:39 |

| Arminius_ | ok | 21:41 |
| Arminius_ | thanks | 21:42 |
| Arminius_ | I'll try that one... | 21:42 |
| Noughmad | allright | 21:42 |
| aga | should be enough with adding the repo to /etc/apt/sources.list and update and upgrade tho | 21:42 |

| AimoParru | Noughmad: It is copying now! | 21:44 |
| Arminius_ | upgrade... | 21:44 |
| Salze | Try dist-upgrade. | 21:44 |
| Arminius_ | so I need to write | 21:44 |

| Arminius_ | ? | 21:44 |
| Salze | Yes. | 21:44 |

| donG_ | o// | 21:49 |
| rooter_ | first date | 21:49 |
| StormWinged | i tryied it... but without "-" between lib and dev | 21:49 |
| Noughmad | usually header packages in ubuntu have -dev appended to them | 21:50 |
| Noughmad | although that look strange with stuff endeng in ++ | 21:50 |
| Arminius_ | any idea? :s | 21:50 |
| Noughmad | Arminius_: I don't know, I had similar problems before, most of the time several rounds of updating, and configuring fixed it | 21:51 |
| Arminius_ | you agree I shouldn't accept to remove them right? | 21:51 |
| Noughmad | no, you got that right :) | 21:52 |

| Arminius_ | gonna try to find some help but thanks for your time :) | 21:56 |
| Salze | Arminius_: I guess a backup would be a good idea. And then afterwards process with accepting the removal of the packages. Then re-run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. If there are still things missing, you could then try sudo apt-get install kde | 21:56 |
| Dragnslcr | aga- usually in /boot | 21:57 |

| dwidmann | matisse: try running "sudo apt-get install --reinstall okular", by the looks of it you're running 8.04 w/KDE4, right? It should be in /usr/lib/kde4/bin/ | 22:20 |
| dex_ | I'm in the live system, anyone know how to fix it quickly? | 22:20 |
| AimoParru | dex_: I did the same! | 22:21 |
| dwidmann | dex_: well, you could just edit the device.map back to normal | 22:21 |
| AimoParru | Do you still have kernel images left? | 22:21 |

| dwidmann | dex_: that works too, be sure to bind mount /dev, /sys, and /proc | 22:22 |
| dex_ | bind was what i was missing | 22:22 |
| dwidmann | ie: mount --bind /dev /media/something/dev | 22:22 |

| AimoParru | My apt-get cannot resolve hostnames to download image. | 22:23 |
| dwidmann | right | 22:23 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: can you resolve hostnames at all on that box? | 22:24 |

| AimoParru | Can I use ip-addresses instead? | 22:28 |
| AimoParru | Or can some kernel be loaded straight from live cd? | 22:28 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: give it a try | 22:28 |

| DexterF | AimoParru: mount your root partition, mount --bind /dev, /sys and /proc, chroot into the mounted root part, run grub-install --recheck /wheregrubshouldgodisk | 22:47 |
| rogal | I nead to compress sobie files using rar, split to 100mb and compression = 0 | 22:47 |
| rogal | in console | 22:47 |
| DexterF | if thats sane run grub-update, repait menu.lst (here it fucked up) and reinstall grub | 22:47 |
| AimoParru | rogal: 7zip | 22:47 |
| DexterF | <- dex_ | 22:47 |
| rogal | Why can't I do it using rar ? | 22:48 |
| AimoParru | DexterF: Why should reinstall grub. My kernel is missing. | 22:48 |
| DexterF | to fix grub. it loosk in the worng disk. at least here it did | 22:48 |
| rogal | how can I install 7zip ? | 22:48 |
| DexterF | your kernel is installed (if you have the same issue as me) but its not listed in grub | 22:49 |
| frogonwheels | rogal: sudop aptitiude install p7zip p7zip-rar | 22:49 |
| AimoParru | DexterF: No, i've searched the disk | 22:50 |
| frogonwheels | rogal: *sudo | 22:50 |
| AimoParru | I did autoremove | 22:50 |
| DexterF | AimoParru: oh. ok. | 22:50 |
| DexterF | AimoParru: can you download the kernel file from the computer you're IRCing with now and transfer to the hosed box? | 22:50 |
| rogal | this 7zip is console app ? | 22:50 |
| dwidmann | should exist at /<mountpoint>/boot/vmlinuz* | 22:50 |
| frogonwheels | rogal: ah. 'rar' is shareware that you should register according to the info from app | 22:51 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: It is not there, but i'll check again | 22:51 |
| frogonwheels | rogal: um.. windows has a gui.. not sure about linux. | 22:51 |
| dwidmann | frogonwheels: (should; though, one might note that it's not nagware ;) ) | 22:52 |
| rogal | So how can I fast make archive, splitted to 100mb and compression=0 ? | 22:52 |
| frogonwheels | rogal: you can read as good as us.. type 7z to see the options. | 22:53 |
| lixy | does anyone know why my Kubuntu crashes and hangs on the playing of the start up sound? | 22:53 |
| rogal | frogonwheels: I have the options in rar but I can't understand how to use it | 22:53 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: I'm still working on hunting down a fix for the network not working in the chroot, so you know | 22:53 |
| frogonwheels | 7z a -v100m archivename.rar | 22:54 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: Thanks. | 22:54 |
| AimoParru | Route says it finds gateway. | 22:54 |
| AimoParru | I think it's close. | 22:55 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: can you ping google from inside the chroot (assuming not, just would like to check) | 22:57 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: I tried, but there is not ping installed | 22:58 |
| mattparry | Hi! Any help page for using/configuring a modem with kubuntu? is it still kppp? | 22:59 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: is your system more hosed than we originally though? | 22:59 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: try mounting /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts to your chroot too | 22:59 |
| AimoParru | good idea! | 23:00 |
| AimoParru | those are not directories | 23:02 |
| rogal | What is most popular FTP server for kde ? | 23:02 |
| syka | query axel pasp | 23:02 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: won't it let you mount them? (they might not be directories ... but ...) if not, just copy or symlink them | 23:02 |
| DexterF | rogal: you don't let a desktop system run server processes. you'll want a linux ftp server. | 23:05 |
| DexterF | rogal: fire up adept, type in ftp and see what it returns | 23:05 |
| dwidmann | DexterF: why not? Consolidate hardware, etc, etc | 23:05 |
| dwidmann | (save $) | 23:06 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: It's loading! | 23:06 |
| rogal | DexterF: found nothing | 23:06 |
| dwidmann | w00t! | 23:06 |
| DexterF | dwidmann, rogal, not what I meant. there's no such thing as a ftp serv for kde. if it's a server it runs under linux, not kde. no matter what the desktop is | 23:06 |
| rogal | DexterF: so whait is the fastest way to share something via ftp ? | 23:07 |
| dwidmann | !ftp | rogal | 23:07 |
| ubottu | rogal: FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP, FileZilla (for !GNOME); !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE); FireFTP (for !Firefox); ftp, lftp (for !cli) - See also !FTPd | 23:07 |
| DexterF | rogal: impossible. I get... tons of fftp entries in adept | 23:07 |
| dwidmann | hmm, | 23:07 |
| dwidmann | !ftpd | 23:07 |
| ubottu | FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP | 23:07 |
| DexterF | now that was easy :P | 23:07 |
| rogal | DexterF: I have kubuntu since 2 hours, don't know how it works | 23:08 |
| dwidmann | I recall pure-ftpd ( I think) being pretty much drop in, will work with zero configuration | 23:08 |
| dwidmann | (not saying it will be secure, just saying that it will work) | 23:08 |
| rogal | DexterF: just need to compress something (50gb) and share it via ftp | 23:08 |
| dwidmann | 50GB!! wow | 23:09 |
| rogal | already done 6gb | 23:10 |
| AimoParru | Ok. kernel loaded. | 23:11 |

| dwidmann | AimoParru: is everything you can think of good to go? (it is kind of a hassle to get back into the chroot, afterall) | 23:12 |
| === erick is now known as redrebel | ||
| rogal | DexterF: other distributions, never used ftp | 23:13 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: I think so. | 23:13 |
| AimoParru | There were no errors, grub updated etc. | 23:14 |
| AimoParru | Can You think of something? | 23:14 |
| dwidmann | not particularly, but if it seems good to go, then give it a go AimoParru | 23:14 |
| AimoParru | Now it goes. Wish me luck! | 23:15 |
| yoritomo | hello all | 23:16 |
| yoritomo | i used this option --prefix=/usr/ to compile | 23:17 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: It's rising! | 23:17 |
| yoritomo | but i got this error libtool: install: error: cannot install `libdrm_intel.la' to a directory not ending in /usr/local/lib | 23:17 |
| yoritomo | why did i get it ? | 23:18 |
| dwidmann | yoritomo: not sure, but it looks like it wants itself installed in /usr/local instead of /usr, if you read the error | 23:19 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: ...and we're up... | 23:19 |
| AimoParru | Thank You all! | 23:20 |
| AimoParru | dwidmann: If You ever come to Norhtern Finland, I'll buy You a cup of coffee with a dona! | 23:20 |
| yoritomo | but as said , and i experienced , not working in /usr/local/ | 23:21 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: that'd be quite the distant trip, but I always did want to tavel :) | 23:22 |
| dwidmann | *travel | 23:22 |
| AimoParru | Where you are from? If I may ask. | 23:22 |
| dwidmann | AimoParru: at the moment ... Gordonsville, Virginia, USA | 23:23 |
| AimoParru | Hmm, is that too far for a donut? | 23:23 |
| AimoParru | But thank You anyway. | 23:23 |
| dwidmann | I think the ticket would cost more than the donut :P | 23:23 |
| dwidmann | anyhow, you're welcome :) | 23:24 |
| AimoParru | I think, I'll go to bed. It's 1.30 am. | 23:25 |

| dwidmann | 'night | 23:26 |
| yoritomo | can somebody help me in my compilation ? | 23:27 |
| dwidmann | yoritomo: I know it's not where you _want_ it, but why not try ./configure --prefix=/usr/local and see if it will take it that way | 23:28 |
| yoritomo | no, i tryed it yesterday and that was not working, that is why somebody from here asked me to try like that | 23:29 |
| dwidmann | yoritomo: what error did it throw yesterday (presumably something else?) | 23:30 |
| yoritomo | so sorry i did not write it, i just copied in the chan yesterday | 23:31 |
| yoritomo | i got this error this time doing the make-install | 23:32 |
