| genii | dinner is just called here, sorta AFK while eating | 00:01 |
| wirechief | bye genii | 00:01 |
| wirechief | well i gotta go make a casper-cow | 00:02 |
| lun4tic | how can i change the menu which the "live stick" is showing? | 00:04 |
| ActionParsnip | lun4tic: which menu do you mean? | 00:06 |
| lun4tic | the one with the language selection | 00:06 |
| Aizawa | Is there a way to install kde 4.3? I've been looking for some time now.. SVN or something, I dunno | 00:07 |
| drbobb | hey, it's highly cool that someone's making a kde3.5 remix of jaunty | 00:07 |
| lun4tic | no matter i guess | 00:08 |
| lun4tic | more important is changing the open textmode terminals to zero | 00:09 |
| lun4tic | and removing the eject disk from the reboot/shutdown | 00:09 |
| lun4tic | i guess the open terminals are because jaunty is still beta and are open for bugtracking or sth | 00:10 |
| drbobb | er, what about the terminals | 00:10 |
| lun4tic | if i shutdown kubuntu live there are some terminals open | 00:11 |
| drbobb | are u talking about virtual consoles? | 00:11 |
| lun4tic | and i am promted if they should be closed | 00:11 |
| lun4tic | no | 00:11 |
| lun4tic | textmode logins | 00:11 |
| lun4tic | tty something | 00:11 |
| drbobb | logins on vc's then | 00:11 |
| lun4tic | kdm promts that they are still open | 00:11 |
| drbobb | ok i get it | 00:12 |
| drbobb | anyway i'd be interested in hearing about the experience from anyone who tried the kde3 jaunty remix | 00:13 |
| drbobb | cause i'd really like to move ahead from hardy but i can't stomach kde4 | 00:14 |
| hallowname | drbobb: kde4 is the greatest thing ever. trunk anyway. dunno bout ur debs. kde3 is the same old kde3 :) | 00:16 |
| rysiek|pl | guys, anybody knows if it's possible to use Xinerama and XComposite together, so that kwin effects in kde4 work? | 00:16 |
| drbobb | hallowname: ok, and that's exactly what i want it to be for the time being | 00:17 |
| drbobb | my question is how well is it integrated into jaunty | 00:18 |
| rysiek|pl | drbobb: officially - not at all | 00:20 |
| rysiek|pl | drbobb: Kubuntu moved to kde4 with 8.10 | 00:20 |
| genii | drbobb: Why not just download and install the iso onto a test partition? http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages/ I think is where the kde3 8.10 and 9.04 are | 00:20 |
| drbobb | rysiek|pl: i'm talking about the most recent announcement on kubuntu.org | 00:20 |
| rysiek|pl | drbobb: oh, I missed that, hold on a sec ;) | 00:21 |
| genii | They are hackable but problemmatic is what the current dev working on it tells me | 00:24 |
| genii | oops wrong channel | 00:24 |
| rysiek|pl | drbobb: very interesting | 00:26 |
| rysiek|pl | drbobb: I think you will have to test it for yourself | 00:26 |
| drbobb | i'd call it great news provided it has no serious regressions wrt. hardy | 00:27 |
| lun4tic | kde4 without effects doesn't ... "work" | 00:29 |
| lun4tic | for me at least :D | 00:29 |
| lun4tic | if you want absolutely no effects, don't usw kde4 :D | 00:29 |
| lun4tic | the live cd of the beta still feels "incomplete" | 00:30 |
| lun4tic | or "not perfectly integrated" | 00:30 |
| lun4tic | but the installed kde4 is good | 00:30 |
| lun4tic | if you have 3d drivers running :) | 00:30 |
| lun4tic | jaunty kubuntu live cd is awfully buggy i think | 00:31 |
| ActionParsnip | lun4tic: why its got some nice config apps | 00:31 |
| lun4tic | so after install don't forget to upgrade :D | 00:31 |
| lun4tic | talking about the live cd | 00:31 |
| ActionParsnip | kd4 + no effects = performance | 00:31 |
| lun4tic | the installed version after upgrading a whole lot of bugs are fixed | 00:32 |
| lun4tic | not really | 00:32 |
| lun4tic | kde never was about performance :D | 00:32 |
| ActionParsnip | sure it is, the effects dont have to be calculated so it saves cpu time | 00:32 |
| lun4tic | it was about easy to use and fancy desktop :) | 00:33 |
| drbobb | my laptop can't do effects anyway, it has a sis graphics chip | 00:33 |
| ActionParsnip | lun4tic: go say that in n#kde, see how long you can last | 00:33 |
| lun4tic | :) | 00:33 |
| lun4tic | but it's actually true in my opinion :) | 00:33 |
| drbobb | and that's just one of the reasons why i want to keep kde3 on it for the near future | 00:34 |
| lun4tic | there are versions that are more performant than others | 00:34 |
| showers | How can I log on as root to get my admin privileges back? | 00:34 |
| lun4tic | but among the desktops i wouldn't say kde has come up with extraordanary performance | 00:34 |
| lun4tic | showers: sudo doesn't work? | 00:35 |
| dwidmann | :\ launchpad doesn't wanna load | 00:35 |
| ActionParsnip | kde is about performance too, although it is leaning towards gloss, any DE / WM is as glossy as yu like it | 00:35 |
| lun4tic | yeag | 00:35 |
| lun4tic | yeah | 00:35 |
| showers | lun4tic: not without a admin password | 00:35 |
| lun4tic | but kde doesn't need a lot of work for gloss :D | 00:35 |
| lun4tic | so it's somehow "gloss for the lazy people" ;) | 00:36 |
| === ubuntu is now known as WIndMaker | ||
| lun4tic | normally you gotta give ur USER password | 00:36 |
| lun4tic | for sudo | 00:36 |
| lun4tic | at least by default | 00:36 |
| lun4tic | dunno what you changed | 00:36 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: if you run groups you will see which groups the user is a member of | 00:37 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: as long as it is in the admin group it can use sudo | 00:37 |
| lun4tic | so if you wanna be root in ubuntu | 00:38 |
| lun4tic | usw "sudo su" | 00:38 |
| showers | that's exactly the message i get 'not part of sudo users' or something close to that | 00:38 |
| lun4tic | and give your user password | 00:38 |
| lun4tic | hm.. | 00:38 |
| showers | Tried sudo su | 00:38 |
| showers | i think i have to get in from the recovery mode maybe? | 00:39 |
| lun4tic | dud you delete the user that was first created with the installation? | 00:39 |
| lun4tic | did* | 00:39 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: use sudo -i | 00:39 |
| lun4tic | cause new users are not in the admin group by default | 00:39 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: sudo su is incorrect and doesnt configure the environment correctly | 00:39 |
| showers | no, but i took away his admin and gave it to someone else | 00:39 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: yu can have multiple admin users | 00:40 |
| lun4tic | then logon as someone else and give admin rights back :D | 00:40 |
| showers | lemme try sudo -i | 00:40 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: if you have no other admin users you will need to log on to recovery root console and modify the user groupings | 00:40 |
| showers | it returns ' | 00:41 |
| showers | not in sudoers file | 00:41 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: then reboot, press esc to show grub and select recovery mode then choose root console | 00:41 |
| showers | ActionParsnip: that's what i thought, but how exactly | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: then you need to add a user to the admin group | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !adduser | 00:42 |
| ubottu | To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !sudo | 00:42 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 00:42 |
| showers | ActionParsnip: Yes, i need to log on to recovery root console. | 00:47 |
| showers | then add a new user with admin privs. but how to do that? | 00:48 |
| showers | I can get into recovery no problem | 00:48 |
| showers | it's just the magic words once there... | 00:48 |
| Pollywog | I have kubuntu (Jaunty) installed but KDE does not start up, only Gnome works... How do I get the remix version of kubuntu installed without doing a complete install? Can I just modify apt sources to install the remix version of KDE? | 00:49 |
| Dragnslcr | showers- probably want adduser | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: adduser <new user> | 00:49 |
| Pollywog | It would just be a hassle to do a total reinstall | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | sudo adduser <username> admin | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Pollywog: have you tried renaming ~/.de | 00:49 |
| showers | Yeah? okay, like 'adduser joe admin' | 00:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Pollywog: and rebooting | 00:50 |
| Pollywog | ActionParsnip: yes I did that | 00:50 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: looks good | 00:50 |
| Pollywog | I am sure that for some reason, KDE 4.2 will not run on this computer, but KDE 3.5 did | 00:51 |
| showers | 'adduser joe admin' at the command prompt in recovery mode? | 00:51 |
| Pollywog | so I want to try the new remix version | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | showers: sounds good | 00:51 |
| * kline wel hi | 00:51 | |
| showers | Believe i've got it thanks for the info and patience. | 00:51 |
| Pollywog | what is the bot's name? | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | !bot | Pollywog | 00:52 |
| ubottu | Pollywog: Hi! I'm #kubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 00:52 |
| Pollywog | the channel bot | 00:52 |
| Pollywog | ty | 00:52 |
| kline | hehe | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Pollywog: try booting to kde, then boot to gnome and read system logs | 00:52 |
| kline | :)) | 00:52 |
| kline | nice | 00:53 |
| kline | bye bye all | 00:53 |
| Pollywog | I suppose I could start it in gnome and look for logs of the previous boot attempt... I assumed the successful boot would overwrite the failed kde boot | 00:54 |
| Pollywog | thanks for the tip | 00:54 |
| cimminodomenico | hi | 00:55 |
| Pollywog | ActionParsnip: I had the same problem in a virtualbox installation of Jaunty which was solved by a clean install rather than an upgrade | 00:55 |
| === cimminodomenico is now known as formy84 | ||
| ActionParsnip | Pollywog: mine was the inverse, couldnt get 1024x768 in a clean jaunty | 00:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Pollywog: got it with an upgrade | 00:58 |
| Pollywog | interesting, I find that with Ubuntu, clean installs seem to be better than upgrades | 00:58 |
| Pollywog | almost every upgrade I have done in Ubuntu/kubuntu has ended with some problem | 00:59 |
| ActionParsnip | true but this time is how it flew. I just roll with it | 01:00 |
| Pollywog | I can't get 1024x768 in virtualbox with Jaunty but I can live with it | 01:01 |

| Pollywog | ActionParsnip: yes, I could not get the virtualbox additions to install | 01:03 |
| Pollywog | not in Linux | 01:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Pollywog: then you need those | 01:04 |
| Pollywog | perhaps the problem is in the version of Virtualbox I am using | 01:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Pollywog: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/10/13/installing-guest-additions-for-ubuntu-guests-in-virtualbox/ | 01:05 |

| draik_ | How can I find the filesystem on a computer? I want to know if I setup Ext 2 or 3 | 01:35 |
| genii | If the filesystem is mounted, the : mount command will usually say | 01:35 |
| draik_ | It's on the actual HDD | 01:36 |
| dwidmann | and if it's not mounted, sudo parted /dev/something print | 01:36 |
| draik_ | I'm running that HDD on the laptop | 01:39 |
| ActionParsnip | draik_: sudo fdisk -l | 01:42 |
| draik_ | I purchased an Acer Aspire One (netbook) and am currently installing Kubuntu on 140GB of the 160GB HDD. That is going to be Ext3. 2GB are going to swap. The other 8GB is for another Linux-based OS and want to find the fs. | 01:44 |
| ActionParsnip | draik_: fdisk will tell you | 01:44 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip: I just ran that on this laptop and it doesn't mention Ext3 | 01:44 |
| ActionParsnip | draik_: can you pastebin the output | 01:44 |
| ActionParsnip | !paste | 01:44 |
| 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) | 01:44 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/148687/ | 01:47 |
| ActionParsnip | draik_: try the mount command | 01:49 |
| genii | If you use logdump feature of debugfs and no result, it's ext2 | 01:49 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip: I tried it on the other laptop (with the other OS) and it's saying "auto" | 01:50 |
| javier | hello, someone is using tuxguitar with kubuntu hardy??? | 01:51 |
| lun4tic | hm... seems to be a jaunty bug | 01:51 |
| lun4tic | the usb creator should create casper-rw file | 01:51 |
| lun4tic | which is used as persistant drive | 01:52 |
| ign0ramus | hey all. | 01:52 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: Holy jeebus! | 01:52 |
| puddle | Ello | 01:52 |
| puddle | =\ | 01:52 |
| ign0ramus | sup shinigama? | 01:52 |
| lun4tic | but it cannot create the file if the usb stick is >2gig or the file size >2gig because of dd that is used do create the file | 01:52 |
| draik_ | :( it's shinigami | 01:52 |
| draik_ | Off by a letter | 01:52 |
| lun4tic | damn limitations | 01:52 |
| draik_ | Johnny, tell him what he's won! | 01:53 |
| ign0ramus | my bad dude. | 01:53 |
| draik_ | (not my new netbook, that's what!) | 01:53 |
| ign0ramus | i've got problems, too... | 01:53 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: It's been a while. How you been? | 01:53 |
| ign0ramus | Great, until I just messed up my entire music library :( | 01:53 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip: It is just labeled as 'Extended" | 01:53 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: How did that happen? (not as bad as my entire Ext3 Kubuntu partition being wiped from not double- or triple-checking the install | 01:54 |
| ActionParsnip | draik_: then you havent set any logical partitions on it, or they would show up | 01:54 |
| draik_ | s/install/backup | 01:54 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: ouch. ok here's the dilemma (and the resulting challenge)... | 01:54 |
| draik_ | ActionParsnip: Sorry, wrong partition. It's reiserfs | 01:55 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: I had just ripped a lot of new music to my library, and wanted to organize things a bit. Amarok does a nice job of categorizing all music files into neat folders, alphabetically... | 01:55 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: So somehow this time, I must have set it to rename all my music files *without* their extension. Now Amarok will not import any of them, and will not play them until I add the extension to the end of the filename. | 01:56 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: I'm not manually renaming 7k tracks... there's got to be a way, right? | 01:57 |
| draik_ | Yeah | 01:57 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: EASY! There's an app within the repos | 01:57 |
| draik_ | Krename | 01:57 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: "There's an app for that". | 01:57 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: checking it out now... | 01:57 |
| draik_ | You can change extensions to MP3, mp3 or even ADD the extension | 01:58 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: what about the .m3u, .aac, .mp4, etc? Will it auto-detect filetype, or will I have to name them all with the same extension? | 01:58 |
| draik_ | It's not that smart | 01:59 |
| draik_ | You will have to spit those out | 01:59 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: not too bad... I'd say 95% of my collection is in .mp3 anyway, so this will save a *ton* of time. good lookin' out! | 01:59 |
| draik_ | No worries. I know of this because of a MAJOR issue with the naming of images from my digicam and gf's digicam. They had to be in lowercase extensions (go fig) and her digicam set everything in caps, so yeah. | 02:00 |
| draik_ | That saved ME on hours of 'right-click, rename, (change to .jpg), enter, next image...' | 02:01 |
| dave_ | hello I am having a little trouble getting video working I installed medibuntu | 02:02 |

| draik_ | ign0ramus: Cool. it's a really great app, IMO. | 02:02 |
| dave_ | Is 9.04 much better than 8.10? | 02:03 |
| xjjk | dave_: with respect to what | 02:03 |
| dave_ | over all getting video working setup etc.. | 02:04 |
| xjjk | dave_: what do you mean video... your video driver? what video card do you have | 02:04 |
| dave_ | I have Nvidia | 02:05 |

| dave_ | I am having trouble getting youtube videos working I installed medibuntu and it still does not work | 02:06 |
| draik_ | dave_: nVidia ___?___ | 02:06 |
| Aizawa | This is probably a silly question, but the daily .iso's are fully updated, right? The latest daily is 04/10, so it has all updates until yesterday, right? | 02:07 |
| dwidmann | dave_: medibuntu is just a repository, it isn't a package ... if you want "working youtube videos", install the "flashplugin-nonfree" package | 02:07 |
| Aizawa | A lot of "right" in that sentence, but eh. | 02:07 |
| dave_ | where would I find that exactly? | 02:07 |
| draik_ | dave_: In the repos | 02:08 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: is there a way to import the contents of entire folders into krename? | 02:08 |
| dave_ | thanks | 02:08 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: you can't add a directory? | 02:08 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: doesn't appear that way... lemme try the simple GUI mode... | 02:08 |

| mkasson | add panel apparently is not it | 02:10 |
| dwidmann | !apt | dave_ | 02:10 |

| draik_ | ign0ramus: It's been a while. Thought that was an option. I guess not. You can just CTRL+A and then 'open' into kRename | 02:10 |
| dave_ | I am installing non free | 02:10 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: OK, I got an entire directory added, but each folder (each artist has their own folder) has mixed files, like album art, etc. It seems that I would still have to go through each folder manually and rename some files and not others :( | 02:12 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: Do you think Picard would work? | 02:12 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: I've never used Picard to give you an honest answer. Sorry. | 02:12 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: ideally, forcing Amarok to accept these files into the library and then batch renaming as I did before would work... don't suppose there's a way to do that, huh? | 02:13 |
| dave_ | It's working now I had a mozilla flash swf conflict thanks for your help | 02:15 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: No, I don't think so. | 02:18 |
| draik_ | ign0ramus: But you can ask in the amarok channel. They may know. | 02:18 |
| ign0ramus | draik_: that just dawned at the exact moment you said that | 02:19 |

| dwidmann | rgarcia: it has more or less been discontinued | 02:51 |
| ActionParsnip | rgarcia: its replaced by krunner now, you could compile it | 02:51 |
| rgarcia | what do you mean? | 02:51 |
| dwidmann | rgarcia: most useful thing you can do to help ease that is to set the run dialog's key combo to alt+space | 02:51 |
| rgarcia | they removed it? | 02:51 |
| genii | rgarcia: Yes | 02:51 |
| rgarcia | mmm..and is there any way similar to use as katap? | 02:52 |
| dwidmann | rgarcia: he discontinued because he didn't see the point in trying to compete with krunner, which could already do much of what katapult could do, and with a little bit of effort, probably more ...... or something like that | 02:52 |

| daskreech | Hallo | 03:11 |
| daskreech | can someone do me a favour? | 03:11 |
| genii | daskreech: Depends on the favour | 03:12 |
| daskreech | go to http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages and see if any of the torrents start | 03:12 |
| daskreech | Also tell me how many seends you have | 03:12 |
| genii | daskreech: I just d/l the iso from there a short while ago :) | 03:13 |
| genii | One minute | 03:13 |
| daskreech | genii: Straight http download? | 03:13 |
| genii | daskreech: Yup | 03:13 |
| daskreech | kk | 03:13 |
| ActionParsnip | daskreech: 1 seed so far | 03:13 |
| m4v | 3 seeds for i386 | 03:14 |
| daskreech | ok | 03:14 |
| daskreech | weird | 03:14 |
| daskreech | none of the seeds can see each other | 03:14 |
| daskreech | but I guess other people can see the seeds which I guess is what matters | 03:14 |
| * daskreech leaves it seeding for another 24 hours | 03:15 | |
| m4v | for amd64 there's a seed but isn't downloading | 03:15 |
| daskreech | Crap | 03:15 |
| genii | Here too | 03:16 |
| daskreech | That's not good | 03:16 |
| Jusken | hey guys sorry for troubles may i cause | 03:16 |
| daskreech | genii: Which one did you pull over http? i386 ? | 03:17 |
| genii | daskreech: No, amd64 | 03:17 |
| daskreech | hrrm | 03:20 |
| genii | daskreech: Took about 25 minutes | 03:20 |
| daskreech | hmm someone just connected to me | 03:20 |
| daskreech | any of you are downloading now? | 03:20 |
| Jusken | but now i haved connected my pendrive and show me tis error:An error has occured chargin media:/sdb1: | 03:21 |
| m4v | daskreech: maybe me? | 03:22 |
| daskreech | hi Jusken | 03:22 |
| Jusken | hi | 03:22 |
| daskreech | I missed the runup what's the problem? | 03:23 |
| Jusken | the folder dosn´t exist :/sdb1 | 03:23 |
| daskreech | m4v: 190.51.x.x ? | 03:23 |
| m4v | daskreech: yep, it's me then | 03:23 |
| Metal | Can i get a bit of help? | 03:23 |
| daskreech | Jusken: KDE4 ? | 03:24 |
| Metal | I'm using a lexmark x2600 series printer on KDE4 | 03:24 |
| daskreech | Metal: If you ask for it and give details | 03:24 |
| daskreech | Metal: Which KDE4 ? | 03:24 |
| Metal | KDE 4.1.4 | 03:24 |
| Jusken | sorry i´m new using kubuntu. KDE 2.6 | 03:24 |
| * m4v wonders if should do to the trouble of downloading and help seeding it :p | 03:25 | |
| daskreech | Jusken: Want to try that again ? :) | 03:25 |
| daskreech | m4v: Is it really a trouble? | 03:25 |
| genii | 2.6 ? | 03:25 |
| Jusken | yeah | 03:25 |
| Metal | Damn, outdated much | 03:25 |
| m4v | daskreech: nah | 03:26 |
| Jusken | it seem | 03:26 |
| daskreech | Alt+tabbing uses so much memory in Gnome :( | 03:26 |
| Metal | daskreech: I'm thinking this error might have to do with the "missing-cup filter" | 03:26 |
| Metal | Warning: Could not find '/usr/bin/adept_manager', starting '/bin/b Please check your profile settings. | 03:26 |
| Jusken | so what can i do then | 03:26 |
| daskreech | Jusken: Where are you getting that informaton from? | 03:26 |
| genii | Probably kernel is 2.6, not KDE | 03:26 |
| Metal | Jusken: type /sysinfo | 03:27 |
| daskreech | genii: Ah Right :) | 03:27 |
| daskreech | Jusken: In Konqueror go to help -> about KDE | 03:27 |
| daskreech | Metal: try sudo apt-get -f install in konsole ? | 03:27 |
| genii | Metal: That will just tell them their Gnome version is "Unknown" | 03:27 |
| Jusken | at konsole | 03:27 |
| Jusken | i did it | 03:28 |
| daskreech | Jusken: In konsole do help -> about KDE | 03:28 |
| daskreech | :) | 03:28 |
| daskreech | what version of KDE does it say you are using ? | 03:28 |
| p_quarles | Jusken: 2.6 is not your KDE version; 8.10 comes with 4.1 by default | 03:29 |
| ramon | does any body knows how do i install liquid weather for Kub 8.10 | 03:30 |

| === Guest53639 is now known as rachel_ | ||
| daskreech | rachel_: which programs? | 03:44 |
| daskreech | ActionParsnip: were you helping ramon ? | 03:44 |
| rachel_ | skim, amarok, nertwork manager.... | 03:44 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : skim, amarok, networkmanager | 03:44 |
| daskreech | rachel_: do you have a system tray ? | 03:44 |
| rachel_ | yes | 03:44 |
| daskreech | what is in it? | 03:44 |
| ramon | i used to have sound but now i can't here anymore | 03:44 |
| rachel_ | but it has only battery, kmix | 03:44 |
| Jusken | no | 03:45 |
| ramon | he told me to restar how.. | 03:45 |
| daskreech | rachel_: umm try remove the system ray and readd it ? | 03:45 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : already done, doesen't work | 03:45 |
| ramon | i saw this command sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart | 03:45 |
| ramon | but nothing happens | 03:45 |
| m4v | rachel_: restarting plasma? | 03:45 |
| daskreech | Jusken: Hmm not much that Linux can do if it can't see the hardware | 03:45 |
| rachel_ | m4v : how_ | 03:45 |
| rachel_ | ? | 03:45 |
| daskreech | rachel_: kquitapp plasma && plasma in the konsole | 03:45 |
| ActionParsnip | daskreech: barely | 03:46 |
| Jusken | well | 03:46 |
| Jusken | thankks anyway | 03:46 |
| daskreech | ramon: Used to work ? when did it stop | 03:46 |
| ActionParsnip | ramon: sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart | 03:46 |
| daskreech | Jusken: If you put something else in that slot it sees it ? | 03:46 |
| ActionParsnip | !sound | ramon | 03:46 |
| ubottu | ramon: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 03:46 |
| ramon | and after that, when i open amarok, appears a message, xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers | 03:46 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : what now_ | 03:46 |
| ramon | now... | 03:47 |
| rachel_ | I have nothing now | 03:47 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : no system tray, nothing | 03:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ramon: youu may want to restart alsa or pulse depending on what you use | 03:47 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : and if I write plasma in the console everything comes back just the same as before | 03:47 |
| daskreech | rachel_: it came back with no system tray ? | 03:48 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : with the system tray just as before, only kmix and battery and updates | 03:48 |
| ramon | i really don't know what happened | 03:48 |
| daskreech | rachel_: hrmm really that should work the systray is a strange beast but if one thing works they should all work | 03:49 |
| daskreech | I've been having an issue on Gnome where there is a space allocated for each of the apps but they never actually turn up | 03:50 |
| daskreech | rachel_: Wht happens if you press alt+ctrl+V ? | 03:50 |
| dwidmann | daskreech: kquitapp plasma && plasma == bad idea ... you'll want a sleep 5 or such in the middle or it might not come back up | 03:50 |
| dwidmann | erm, one = | 03:51 |
| daskreech | dwidmann: crap yeah You know what I normally am moving around config files when I do that which is why it works for me | 03:51 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : it copies the text I have wrote before | 03:51 |
| daskreech | rachel_: But you don't see klipper in the system tray? | 03:51 |
| rachel_ | no | 03:51 |
| rachel_ | I closed it | 03:51 |
| rachel_ | daskreech : no, I closed it, I don't use klipper | 03:51 |
| daskreech | oh then why does alt+ctrl+V work then ? | 03:52 |
| daskreech | that's a klipper shortcut | 03:52 |
| rachel_ | well | 03:52 |
| rachel_ | it works here, not on the desktop | 03:52 |
| m4v | rachel_: check if amarok has the "show in systray" option checked in its preferences | 03:52 |
| Jusken | hey daskreech i was looking for and i realize that all was fine i went to media and found it | 03:52 |
| rachel_ | hey | 03:53 |
| dwidmann | rachel_: you don't? Could hurt things when copying & pasting between different apps, especially if you close the one that you copied from | 03:53 |
| rachel_ | mv4 : hey I just received one error regarding klauncher | 03:53 |
| daskreech | Jusken: ?? can you pastebin the output from the command mount ? | 03:53 |
| daskreech | Jusken: Just type in mount and then put the results on pastebin | 03:53 |
| m4v | rachel_: I don't understand, when doing what? | 03:53 |
| rachel_ | mv4 : checking on amarok | 03:54 |
| Jusken | man sorry is the first time i use Kubuntu | 03:54 |
| Jusken | ok i´ll do | 03:54 |
| Jusken | thanks i think is solved | 03:55 |
| daskreech | Jusken: Welcome to Kubuntu :) | 03:55 |
| daskreech | Jusken: Anything that gets automounted does so in /media so your disk, usb drives and optical disks all go there | 03:56 |
| BrianH | howdy | 03:57 |
| dwidmann | hmm, amarok 2.1b ... sounds tasty | 03:57 |
| daskreech | Yeah I wants debs | 03:58 |
| Jusken | ok. thanks | 03:58 |
| dwidmann | I'll settle for build from src if I can work out how to build/install Qtscript | 03:58 |

| showers | Well, it worked! | 05:42 |
| showers | i couldn't log on as admin, so i came here and asked how to do it, | 05:43 |
| showers | Somebody here told me to go to the rescue consol, when you boot up you have that choice | 05:43 |
| showers | and to type in 'adduser <username> admin | 05:44 |
| showers | it didn't work quite as expected, i couldn't create a new user | 05:44 |
| showers | But I could give admininstrative rights to current users, so i did | 05:45 |
| showers | Worked like a charm, thank you! | 05:45 |
| showers | What it did was add <username> to the admin group | 05:47 |
| showers | Then I created a new user, with admin rights, and took the rights away from this user who uses the net | 05:49 |
| showers | Now i feel fairly safe surfing as a user | 05:49 |
| showers | One tiny detail: as a regular user i can't run the front end for the firewall; firestarter. | 05:50 |
| showers | So i hope that it is still running in the background somewhere. Would that be right? | 05:51 |
| aga | i don't think it will run if you don't invoke it | 05:52 |
| aga | but check the processes on top or ps aux | 05:52 |
| showers | What won't run? the actual firewall (itables?) or just the front end? I had the idea the firewall was always on. | 05:54 |
| aga | the frontend | 05:54 |
| showers | Perfect? I don't need the frontend as long as the firewall is on, right? | 05:55 |
| aga | anyway, i think that you need to configure iptables to make it a real properly working firewall | 05:55 |
| showers | Although it would be nice to know that it kept the firewall preferences i gave it as an admin? | 05:56 |
| aga | right but you need to configure the rules on iptables if you want it to be effective | 05:56 |
| aga | there was a way to check your actual iptables sec | 05:56 |
| showers | How so? | 05:57 |
| aga | yeah to check the rules | 05:57 |
| genii | If you ran firestarter at some point using sudo instead of kdesudo that might explain your not being able to reopen it | 05:57 |
| aga | not sure, i have never digged to much on there | 05:57 |
| trappist | showers: firestarter is just a frontend for iptables, which doesn't "run", it tells the kernel how to filter traffic. once the rules are in place, there's nothing to run, the kernel handles it. | 05:57 |
| trappist | sudo iptables-save to look at the current rules | 05:57 |
| aga | oh thank you :D i could have been looking for that half an hour | 05:58 |
| showers | Are the rules the same for all users, or just for the user who sets them up? | 05:58 |
| showers | Can't sudo anything because as a regular user it isn't allowed | 05:59 |
| trappist | a regular user is who sudo is made for | 05:59 |
| trappist | as long as he's a sudoer | 05:59 |
| trappist | anyway since the firewall rules are in the kernel, they're not user-specific. a packet comes into your network interface, and your kernel decides what to do with it based on the firewall rules. | 06:00 |
| showers | trappist: Thank you! Exactly what I wanted to hear. | 06:01 |
| trappist | it's possible (but not very easy) to make firewall rules that match packets based on the user that owns the process that's sending or receiving the packet, but you'd know if you'd done that | 06:01 |
| showers | So what do you guys do? Do you run with admin privileges or is it safer (i think so) to run without? | 06:03 |
| showers | Anyway, moving along here, has anyone tried Zim? | 06:04 |
| showers | That is a great little program | 06:05 |
| showers | I use NoteTab in windows but it doesn't port well to linux and is much harder to use. | 06:06 |
| showers | But was much better suited for programmers, which I sorta was at one point. | 06:06 |
| showers | I'm looking at Bluefish now | 06:06 |
| showers | NoteTab though, has all those quick and easy paste libraries, and you can make your own templates. | 06:07 |

| Metal | folders and such | 06:11 |
| dwidmann | Like a GUI? ark | 06:11 |
| Metal | Thought that was to decompress | 06:11 |
| dwidmann | I believe it can do both. | 06:11 |
| dwidmann | I generally just use tar though ... | 06:12 |

| ktne | i'm trying to install kubuntu | 06:54 |
| ktne | and i can't figure out whenver it was installed or not | 06:55 |
| dwidmann | quantum: don't think it has been completely ported yet, but you can still use the kde3 version | 06:55 |
| quantum | dwidmann: when i try to install it says some missing dependencies ... which when I try to install ... they try to remove some kde 4 components | 06:55 |
| ktne | anyone here has succeeded installing kubuntu 9.04 beta? | 06:56 |
| dwidmann | quantum: which ones? | 06:56 |
| quantum | dwidmann: I have a sh file on desktop ... clicking it opens in kate ... how do I execute it ? | 06:57 |
| dwidmann | quantum: open up Konsole, cd Desktop, ./thescriptsname.sh | 06:58 |
| quantum | dwidmann: no I want to execute it by double clicking | 06:58 |
| dwidmann | quantum: not sure you can execute a shell script that way ... you should probably use a *.desktop file instead if you want that sort of behavior | 06:59 |
| dwidmann | or rather, instead of instead, the *.desktop file can launch the script ... | 06:59 |
| quantum | right click properties .... add sh to the list of applications that open this type of file and move it on top | 07:00 |
| Ketrel | Where can I get QTRuby? | 07:00 |
| dwidmann | quantum: did it work? | 07:01 |
| quantum | yup | 07:01 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: sudo apt-get install libqt4-ruby1.8 | 07:01 |
| Ketrel | ah, it's separated | 07:02 |
| dwidmann | quantum: certainly more than one way to skin a cat :P | 07:03 |
| Ketrel | one more question, if for some reason sound just stopped working, is there anything to reinitialize it all without rebooting? | 07:03 |
| dwidmann | hmm, Ketrel, first check that it isn't muted at all, then maybe try "sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart" | 07:04 |
| Ketrel | dwidmann: it just broke and xine cannot something any audio something | 07:05 |
| Ketrel | so I shall try that | 07:05 |
| quantum | :) | 07:05 |
| Ketrel | nope | 07:06 |
| Ketrel | "xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers" | 07:06 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: another device probably has /dev/snd/something locked ... | 07:06 |
| dwidmann | **another app | 07:07 |
| Ketrel | dwidmann: any way to check? | 07:08 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: cd /dev/snd; sudo fuser * | 07:08 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: then figure out which ones they are ... | 07:09 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: actually, probably just sudo fuser pcm* | 07:09 |
| Ketrel | three lines, should I pastebin, or is that ok? | 07:09 |
| Ketrel | nvm | 07:09 |
| Ketrel | just saw the pcm part | 07:09 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: check which processes those PIDs are for with ps aux | grep <thenumber> | 07:10 |
| Ketrel | I know :) I didn't know which of the three files in use to look at | 07:10 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: so what'd ya figure out? | 07:14 |
| Ketrel | something about clicking to search for lyrics from amarok is making another launcher process lock it | 07:18 |
| dwidmann | that's no fun | 07:20 |
| dwidmann | amarok 1.x or 2.x? | 07:20 |
| Ketrel | 1.x | 07:21 |
| Ketrel | I don't think 2.x is out of Kubuntu yet | 07:21 |
| Ketrel | *for | 07:21 |
| Ketrel | and I didn't add it from any unofficial repos | 07:22 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: which lyrics script do you use? | 07:22 |
| Ketrel | lyricswiki | 07:25 |
| Ketrel | it happens when I click add or search | 07:25 |
| dwidmann | hmm, it still give you the trouble if you use a different script? | 07:25 |
| Ketrel | the ones that came with it didn't find the lyrics :p | 07:25 |
| dwidmann | Ketrel: I find Ruby Lyric works pretty well | 07:25 |
| dwidmann | very fast even on my laggy connection | 07:26 |
| dwidmann | usually finds the lyrics too | 07:26 |
| Ketrel | Well as long as I don't click add or search, I'm fine :p | 07:27 |
| Ketrel | BTW, "/bin/sh -c kfmclient openURL "http://www.lyricwiki.org/Akon:Right_Now_(Na_Na_Na)" | 07:27 |

| ktne | i downloaded one from adobe flash site | 09:46 |
| peaches | ktne: anything happen when you click on it? | 09:46 |
| ktne | peaches: not associated | 09:46 |
| Mamarok | ktne: usually its sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 09:46 |
| Mamarok | but Adobe providing *.deb is new! | 09:47 |
| ktne | ah | 09:47 |
| ktne | it works now | 09:47 |
| ktne | i clicked the wrong file :) | 09:47 |
| ktne | uff | 09:47 |
| ktne | i don't have the necessary permissions | 09:47 |
| Mamarok | of course not, you need sudo rights | 09:47 |
| ktne | i have them | 09:47 |
| Mamarok | do it in the Konsole | 09:47 |
| peaches | ktne: what did it open? | 09:47 |
| === shadeslayer is now known as Guest89728 | ||
| ktne | peaches: the installer | 09:47 |

| === metoo is now known as shadeslayer | ||
| ktne | do i have permissions if i start kde using startx instead of kdm? | 09:50 |
| ktne | because i think that i had permissions back when i started it using kdm | 09:50 |
| Mamarok | ktne: you have normal user rights | 09:51 |
| eagles0513875 | ktne: if you are on kubuntu or debian you need to go from command line and type sudo then the command | 09:51 |
| Mamarok | the same as when starting kdm | 09:51 |
| ktne | but i can run sudo and enter the password | 09:51 |
| eagles0513875 | thats how you have to do it ktne | 09:51 |
| Mamarok | ktne: in Konsile, riht | 09:52 |
| eagles0513875 | sudo will be the password you use to login to the machine | 09:52 |
| ktne | yes in Konsole | 09:52 |
| Mamarok | eagles0513875: do you mind? | 09:52 |
| eagles0513875 | sry Mamarok | 09:52 |
| ktne | also it looks like adobe has only a 32bit deb | 09:52 |
| * eagles0513875 goes back to doing what he was doing | 09:52 | |
| Mamarok | ktne: there is a 64bit installer available normally, but not a *.deb | 09:52 |
| Mamarok | AFAIR | 09:53 |
| Mamarok | peaches: everything is available for the average user as a GUI | 09:55 |
| Mamarok | everything else is not aimed at the user having no sudo rights anyway | 09:55 |
| Mamarok | matter of security | 09:55 |
| Mamarok | hm, sry, was in a backlog | 09:56 |
| peaches | Mamarok: i'm skeptical of that but maybe that could be true but just a difference in degree of availbility vs usefulness (for example the awful kubuntu adept client) | 09:56 |
| Mamarok | well, that one will have gone in the next release AFAIK | 09:57 |
| peaches | Mamarok: though he did click on it and it brought up a GUI, but something is broken if it doesn't ask the password to install | 09:57 |
| peaches | found the program is called gdebi-kde | 09:57 |
| Mamarok | ouch, gdebi-kde? | 09:58 |
| Mamarok | that sounds like a KDE layer of a GTK app :( | 09:58 |
| Mamarok | plain awfull | 09:58 |
| Mamarok | peaches: one is not suppose to install a *.deb from Dolphin IMHO... | 09:59 |
| peaches | tried to use it to install a deb but it have symbol relocation error that is probably from using outside qt/kde though | 09:59 |
| Mamarok | at least not a plain user who should not install system wide things anyway | 09:59 |
| peaches | Mamarok: yeah.. i thought thats what he was going for until the permissions problem | 09:59 |
| peaches | Mamarok: oh i assumed he's not just a user | 10:00 |
| Mamarok | let's see if the bot has something | 10:00 |
| Mamarok | !deb | 10:00 |
| ubottu | deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 10:00 |
| peaches | you know in a way that's kinda worse that he can't download a deb off the net as a normal user (hypothetically) and just insatll it | 10:01 |
| peaches | from a trusted source | 10:01 |
| Mamarok | that is just plain awfull, starting gdebi in KDE :( | 10:01 |
| peaches | kubuntu is second class | 10:01 |
| peaches | we gotta live with it | 10:01 |
| Mamarok | well, that would go against all securty basics of a Linux system | 10:01 |
| Mamarok | security* even | 10:01 |
| Mamarok | the user should never be allowed to install things unless he has sudo rights | 10:02 |
| peaches | Mamarok: not really. he's just going to go get the scripted version for a normal user in that event anyway. my point is that a *deb install won't install optionally to only the user's zone of permission | 10:03 |
| peaches | Mamarok: wow that's pretty draconian heh | 10:03 |
| peaches | well by 'install' i kinda just clump in there 'put a folder on his desktop with an executable file in it somewhere' as "installing" though | 10:04 |
| Mamarok | hm, that's the nature of a *.deb file, it has been packaged to go system wide, else you have to change the patch before making the package | 10:04 |
| Mamarok | at least, the *.deb association in the next release links to kpackagekit | 10:05 |
| Mamarok | "folder on a desktop" sounds so Windows like... | 10:06 |
| peaches | yeah thats what i mean about deb anyway how it's set up in kubuntu.. though he can probably opt for that one app i forget the name that was kde centric, a one-click local user installer for a bunch of apps | 10:07 |
| peaches | kpackageit eh? im going to loko that up.. hope it's good.. and hope you mean jaunty | 10:07 |
| peaches | Mamarok: doesn't it sound so mac like? | 10:07 |
| Mamarok | well, don't know if the usability is better since Alpha5, I very much hope so... | 10:07 |
| Mamarok | can't tell, never used a Mac :) | 10:08 |
| Mamarok | I live pretty much in the Linux world since 1999 | 10:08 |
| peaches | i'd rather work with folders and desktops than directories and inodes thats just me | 10:08 |
| peaches | hehe | 10:08 |
| peaches | a lot has change since 1999 amirite | 10:09 |
| Mamarok | oh yes, my first distro had no working X... | 10:09 |
| Mamarok | luckily I'm in Kubuntu heaven since it's existence | 10:10 |
| Mamarok | :) | 10:10 |
| peaches | yea i dont remember how long ive used primary OS probably around windblows xp | 10:10 |

| rachel_ | well | 10:21 |
| rachel_ | peaches | 10:21 |
| BorNDeaD | rachel, install the gstreamer extra plugins package | 10:21 |
| peaches | BorNDeaD: do you happen to know the default kubuntu media player? | 10:23 |

| eagles0513875 | intrepid has adept already installed with it | 10:32 |
| eagles0513875 | jaunty is where it changes the package manager | 10:32 |
| peaches | anyway probably just the codec issue BorNDeaD says | 10:32 |
| drostie | ktne: then I can't be more help -- I've never experienced that problem myself. | 10:32 |
| ktne | drostie: thanks, but that was the solution :) it worked :) | 10:32 |
| peaches | rachel_: if it download claims to take 8 hours and you're not on dialup or something, then just cancel and try again.. the codec install will probably fix things | 10:33 |
| BorNDeaD | i had the same problem and i believe thats what i did to fix it rachel_ | 10:33 |
| Mamarok | bcoelho2000: certainly a lot of people, check in #ubuntu+1 | 10:33 |
| bcoelho2000 | cool | 10:33 |
| bcoelho2000 | i've installed the 8.10 version | 10:33 |
| Mamarok | bcoelho2000: but the release is in aprox 2 weeks, so if you don't have to change, wait | 10:34 |
| bcoelho2000 | but i will probably use apt-distupgrade to take it to another level | 10:34 |
| bcoelho2000 | hmm nice | 10:34 |
| bcoelho2000 | now that MS wil end the support for WinXP I expect to see many people coming to the Linux world | 10:34 |
| Mamarok | hm, they actually plan to provide XP downgrade for Win7 users.... | 10:35 |
| Mamarok | so I guess corporate support will still be here for quite some time | 10:36 |
| bcoelho2000 | thats right. i've read about it in znet | 10:36 |
| Mamarok | the only thing that ends is free support | 10:36 |
| Mamarok | but "free" is a big word, having to stay in phone loops for 30 minutes certainly brings some cash too | 10:37 |
| bcoelho2000 | the thing that made me stick with windows were: driver support and Visual Studio for asp.net + .net + sql server development | 10:37 |
| bcoelho2000 | but now my goal is to install Apache + Mono on Kubuntu | 10:37 |
| === liberfiasco is now known as libervisco | ||
| Mamarok | args, Mono :( | 10:41 |
| Mamarok | patent encumbred MS stuff | 10:41 |
| bcoelho2000 | its the .net implementation for linnux | 10:42 |
| Mamarok | bcoelho2000: I know, still, it's full of MS patents and not really a recommended dev-environment for Free Software IMHO | 10:43 |
| Mamarok | but that's OT anyway | 10:43 |
| bcoelho2000 | hmm i understand | 10:43 |
| bcoelho2000 | i'm trying to install flash player | 11:09 |
| bcoelho2000 | but i can't find the plugins directory | 11:09 |
| BorNDeaD | problems? | 11:09 |
| drostie | an install of flashplugin-nonfree should do that sort of stuff for you. | 11:09 |
| bcoelho2000 | apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ?? | 11:09 |
| drostie | That would be it. With superuser privileges, of course. | 11:10 |
| bcoelho2000 | sudo :) | 11:10 |
| bcoelho2000 | oki | 11:10 |
| BorNDeaD | lol | 11:10 |
| bcoelho2000 | will try :) | 11:10 |

| bcoelho2000 | how do you know this names? | 11:12 |
| BorNDeaD | ?? | 11:12 |
| libervisco | Some things wont play in amarok.. | 11:13 |
| libervisco | and it just crashed :S | 11:14 |
| BorNDeaD | what wont play? | 11:14 |
| libervisco | some shoutcast streams and some youtube stuff from the youtube plugin | 11:15 |
| BorNDeaD | i dont use amarok for that sorry | 11:15 |
| BorNDeaD | i have no idea | 11:15 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: you talk about the youtube script? | 11:19 |
| Mamarok | that's third party software, so you should check with the author | 11:20 |
| libervisco | yeah and shoutcast | 11:20 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: which version of Amarok? | 11:20 |
| libervisco | 2.0.2 | 11:20 |
| Mamarok | well, it works in 2.1, so maybe wait for the package to arrive in your repos | 11:21 |
| Mamarok | backports btw | 11:21 |
| Mamarok | shoutcast I mean | 11:21 |
| libervisco | will it come to jaunty before release? | 11:21 |
| Mamarok | but sometimes it's just the streams server who are down, that's not an Amarok problem | 11:21 |
| libervisco | yeah, could be | 11:21 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: not likely, feature freeze | 11:22 |
| libervisco | just was weird cause some of these streams are in the "cool streams" list which should rarely be down | 11:22 |
| Mamarok | but it will end up in the backports | 11:22 |
| libervisco | damn :S | 11:22 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: as I said, that's a server problem, not an Amarok problem | 11:22 |
| Mamarok | we only provide the links, not the servers :) | 11:22 |
| libervisco | I know :D | 11:22 |
| libervisco | well actually I wont add a backports repository, just get the specific amarok package | 11:23 |
| libervisco | don't want to have other stuff updated which I don't want :) | 11:23 |
| Mamarok | then just choose what you want, you don't have to install everything | 11:23 |
| Mamarok | and you will have to activate the backports to get it, once it's in the repo | 11:24 |
| libervisco | yeah, but I mean if there is something in backports that I already do have installed, but don't want updated | 11:24 |
| Mamarok | you don't have to, just select what you want to install | 11:24 |
| tsimpson | you can choose what packages to update and what not | 11:24 |
| libervisco | on dist-upgrade I mean | 11:24 |
| libervisco | or just upgrade | 11:24 |
| tsimpson | then don't dist-/upgrade ;) | 11:25 |
| tsimpson | just apt-get install <package> | 11:25 |
| tsimpson | and it'll be updated | 11:25 |
| libervisco | ah but that's too convenient not to do :P | 11:25 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: you don't make distrupgrade everytime, only once to upgrade, then you choose what you want in kpackagekit | 11:25 |
| libervisco | right | 11:25 |
| libervisco | btw, anyone has issues with adding widgets to the panel? | 11:27 |
| libervisco | this is a clean from-scratch net install.. and it didn't work from the get go.. when I press the thing for editing the panel and click the "add widgets" button, the dialog shows up for like a milisecond and then just disappears and nothing happens | 11:28 |
| libervisco | I can add widgets to the desktop though, just not the panel | 11:28 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: in intrepid? should work | 11:29 |
| libervisco | jaunty | 11:29 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: for jaunty, ask in #ubuntu+1 | 11:29 |
| libervisco | and it did work in jaunty last time I tried, when it was KDE4.2.1 | 11:29 |
| libervisco | hm ok.. | 11:29 |

| Mamarok | jonathan__: you don't have to merge hte file | 11:41 |
| Mamarok | hm, Neremor ^^ | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | the* file | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | jonathan__, Neremor: which nick am I supposed to address now? | 11:43 |
| Neremor | Neremor please | 11:44 |
| Mamarok | ok, so as I said, you don't have to merge the file, you can play those one after the other | 11:44 |
| Mamarok | when mergin you would have to re-write the two indexes with the risk of loosing it | 11:45 |
| Neremor | hm but i prefer having only one big file | 11:46 |
| Neremor | i will backup both before so it's not that risky to join the files | 11:47 |
| Mamarok | then check this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=180073&page=6 | 11:47 |

| vertago1 | ok good | 16:16 |
| vmelo | I have hardy running here and there is no trouble with skype | 16:16 |
| vertago1 | skype doesn't work with kde4 until like 4.2 | 16:16 |
| === jaime is now known as GARZA | ||
| GARZA | I'm using Kubuntu 8.04.2, installed from the CD. | 16:17 |
| jussi01 | vmelo: Ive heard that installing the 915 driver fixes the issue | 16:17 |
| vertago1 | Garza have you looked in the settings to see if there are switches and chanels you arn't showing in kmix? | 16:17 |
| vertago1 | *channels | 16:18 |
| GARZA | vertago1: I have tried everything, within kmix | 16:18 |
| GARZA | vertago1: all switches, and nothing | 16:18 |
| vertago1 | well to keep the mic from outputing through your speakers you need to mute the mic on the kmix | 16:19 |
| vertago1 | as an output | 16:19 |
| GARZA | vertago1: I don't get it, I have installed Ubuntu dozens of times, and never had this problem | 16:19 |
| vmelo | jussi01, that's good, I'm gonna give it a try again soon | 16:19 |
| GARZA | vertago1: Yes, that works, the problem ist that it doesn't record with krec or send sound with skype | 16:19 |

| ddevnul | cya dudes | 16:20 |
| ddevnul | lol br na parada | 16:20 |
| ddevnul | :) | 16:20 |
| GARZA | vertago1: And of course I have record on the mic activated through kmix | 16:20 |
| vertago1 | GARZA are there input source switches on yours? | 16:21 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas | 16:25 |
| GARZA | vertago1: I have KDE 3.5.10 | 16:25 |
| GARZA | vertago1: and the input source switches are on the mic, as I said, the Mic works, I can hear it on the speakers, but I'm not able to record or use skype with it, I don't know why | 16:26 |
| vertago1 | GARZA what other switch options are there? some cards have a front mic too | 16:26 |
| GARZA | This has no front mic | 16:27 |
| vertago1 | ok | 16:27 |
| BluesKaj | vertago1, the front mic is usually the onboard audio on the mobo | 16:28 |
| vertago1 | alright | 16:28 |
| vertago1 | not sure what to tell you GARZA, since you already can hear the mic over the speakers when you unmute it. If there is a record volume you might check that, or you might check the sound device selected in skype | 16:30 |
| === richard is now known as Guest45290 | ||
| GARZA | THanks anyway, I have tried everything already | 16:33 |
| GARZA | Cheers! | 16:33 |

| rachel_ | hi all, can anybody help me, I cannot see any movie in kubuntu intrepid, I want to know what I have to download. If I use VLC it just closes after a second and Dragon player just has audio, no video | 16:35 |
| mkasson | to go from Ubuntu to Kubuntu, is "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" all I have to do? | 16:36 |
| rachel_ | mkasson : yes | 16:36 |
| mkasson | rachel_, thanks. is the difference then just the presentation and usability of data? | 16:37 |

| gayatri | hi guys | 16:49 |
| mkasson | does Kubuntu have problems with multi-montor any different than ubuntu? | 16:49 |
| gayatri | how do i run x-windows in ubuntu? | 16:49 |
| mkasson | *multi-monitor | 16:49 |
| mkasson | gayatri, perhaps try #ubuntu? more people? more active? | 16:51 |
| hallowname | gayatri: like from tty? 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start' ? | 16:52 |
| hallowname | mkasson: all linux has problems with multi-monitor lol. problem being capitalism. | 16:52 |
| gayatri | thanks mkasson | 16:52 |
| mrksbrd | has anyone successfully tethered a blackberry to linux yet? every article I found hasn't worked | 16:53 |
| mkasson | hallowname, ummm capitalism? | 16:56 |
| mkasson | mrksbrd, meant to look that up today. | 16:56 |
| mkasson | you mean charging or syncing | 16:56 |
| mrksbrd | to use as modem | 16:56 |
| mkasson | ohhhhh. no clue | 16:57 |
| hallowname | mkasson: money. companies dont pay for big linux multi-monitor setup guis for their drivers. nvidia is ok about it i guess. most dont give a piss about linux. bc it doesnt make them money. | 16:57 |
| mrksbrd | there was 2 out there I found, but kicks back an error & then disc after about 30 secs | 16:57 |
| mkasson | hallowname, well, it works for me under Ubuntu. I tried for about 1 hr last night to get it working w/K but no luck | 16:58 |
| mkasson | it uses the second monitor if I move an app there, but no desktop background or desktop activities (right click) | 16:58 |
| hallowname | mrksbrd: i did that once on my ex's blackberry. like 6months ago. dont remember any issues. keep googlen. | 16:58 |
| mrksbrd | mkasson: http://www.blackberryforums.com/linux-users-corner/182834-verizon-tethering-ubuntu-working.html | 16:59 |

| mrksbrd | hallow i don't know enough about the script files files yet | 16:59 |
| hallowname | mkasson: dunno anything about that stuff | 16:59 |
| hallowname | mrksbrd: learn :D what dont you know? ask someone | 17:00 |
| mrksbrd | it gives me a -f switch error, but fully recognizes it | 17:00 |
| mrksbrd | hallowname: look @ that link I posted, i put it up on the forum....it's the last one....you will see the -f error | 17:02 |
| mkasson | mrksbrd, cool, but I actually just need to charge my BB. Need the USB 2 handshake voltage increase | 17:02 |
| mrksbrd | if u get it to recognize thru usb, shouldn't need voltage increase, under windows it charges just fine | 17:03 |
| mkasson | windows does the voltage bump | 17:04 |
| mkasson | (perhaps because it recognizes?) | 17:04 |
| hallowname | mrksbrd: the file conf/verizon obviously is passing pppd the -f switch that your version doesnt suppport. change the conf/verizon file. | 17:04 |
| hallowname | mrksbrd: or match pppd versions with the bbthether's author | 17:05 |

| devilsadvocate | hi, i have a dvd in a format called .img . what/how should i do with it? (i want to play the file, not burn it onto a disc) | 17:34 |
| trappist | devilsadvocate: what does this say: file filename.img | 17:37 |
| devilsadvocate | trappist, UDF filesystem data (version 1.5) | 17:38 |
| devilsadvocate | so mount -o loop worked on it, and now i have this Video_ts and audio_ts folers | 17:38 |
| trappist | yeah you should be able to play the vob files with, say, mplayer | 17:39 |
| trappist | or you may be able to do like mplayer /dev/loop0 | 17:39 |
| devilsadvocate | is there some dvd player like software that will take care of all of that? | 17:39 |
| trappist | the loopback device the fs is mounted on | 17:39 |
| trappist | try mplayer, xine, etc. on the loopback device | 17:40 |

| m_tadeu_ | lun4tic: you have 2 partitions I guess....one of them called "persistent" or something like that | 19:30 |
| lun4tic | i made a casper-rw file in the "casper" directory of the usb stick and even tried to change the initrd.gz "init" file by adding persistent boot option with variable names | 19:30 |
| lun4tic | one is called casper-cow | 19:31 |
| lun4tic | ext3 | 19:31 |
| lun4tic | the other is fat and contains the live cd files copied by usb-creator | 19:31 |
| lun4tic | so it doesn't accept ext3 image files made with dd and mkfs.ext3 and doesn't use the available ext3 partition | 19:33 |

| ActionParsnip1 | mrksbrd: looked ok in opera too | 20:58 |
| MTecknology | mrksbrd: you like it in firefox? :) | 20:59 |
| mrksbrd | very good job i'd say | 20:59 |
| MTecknology | thanks | 20:59 |
| mrksbrd | wanna build a site for me? | 20:59 |
| MTecknology | does ok in IE6,7,8, firefox, any gecko browser, a few other browsers... | 21:00 |
| mrksbrd | i hate when i can't figure out how to get something to work on here | 21:00 |
| MTecknology | but not konqueror | 21:00 |
| MTecknology | what kind of site do you want? | 21:01 |
| mrksbrd | yea i would say standard is different | 21:01 |
| peterhil | MTecknology: The site looked ok in Safari too, so it must be a problem with some Konqueror rendereing bug | 21:01 |
| MTecknology | can I blame it on konqueror? :) | 21:01 |
| mrksbrd | MTecknology: photography | 21:01 |
| MTecknology | so you want a pretty theme and a gallery? | 21:02 |
| mrksbrd | i'll PM u | 21:02 |
| patarok | has anybody an idea what the reason could be that elisa wont start anymore? | 21:02 |
| MTecknology | it's ok - Drupal can probably do everything you want pretty easily | 21:02 |
| peterhil | Maybe. Of course it would be nice that sites would work on Konq too... | 21:02 |

| mrksbrd | just trying to get this damn dialer to work | 21:10 |
| mrksbrd | i'm running out of ideas here | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip1 | malibu: you can edit /etc/network/interfaces to set static ip, the app will then be useless, you will have to set dns servers in /etc/resolv.conf | 21:11 |
| malibu | ActionParsnip1: really? wow.. ok | 21:11 |
| malibu | ActionParsnip1: Why have the app then? | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip1 | malibu: its good for people who dont like editting config files even though its not that hard. its also handy if you roa between multiple LANs | 21:13 |
| malibu | ActionParsnip1: but you just said I had to edit the config file anyway.. | 21:13 |
| ActionParsnip1 | malibu: if you populate that file your system will boot marginally faster as it will not wait for dhcp to complete | 21:14 |

| tsimpson | if it's short, my client "ping"s when I get a message ;) | 23:50 |
| gorgonizer | acr0nym: apologies.. I have been drinking today for the first time in 5 years... but in Appearance there should be an Icons subset.. from which there is an option to install a Theme file... | 23:50 |
| Zirg | tsimpson, OUCH! I lied to ya. :-( It was six lines. Sorry! | 23:50 |
| * Zirg hangs his head, in shame. | 23:50 | |
| tsimpson | Zirg: try installing x11-xserver-utils then? | 23:52 |
| Zirg | tsimpson, explosion. http://rafb.net/p/SAPoGx71.html | 23:52 |
| tsimpson | how about installing xutils | 23:54 |
| acr0nym | gorgonizer, it seems that I can only add icons in there | 23:54 |
| acr0nym | the theme I downloaded has a lot more stuff like widgets etc | 23:54 |
| gorgonizer | acr0nym: ahhh, then in that case, I am unsure.. there must be an easy way to do it, but for the life of me I don't seem to be able to find it... | 23:55 |
