[00:00] * frustrat3d is waiting for his ubuntu forums account to activate so I can ask about it. [00:00] but a bug post is a good idea too. [00:00] frustrat3d, if you know cli, no need for *buntu :-) [00:01] linux-hdtv: sure there is. <--- lazy [00:01] I want a system that I can install packages on without a lot of effort. [00:01] but also allows me to get nitty-gritty when I need. aside from fucking NetMan, ubuntu is that distro for me. [00:01] cli package managers are powerful [00:01] linux-hdtv: what's cli? [00:01] can any of you help me adding "sudo mount /dev/media/data /media/bigdrive" in the fstab ? [00:01] linux-hdtv: I know. I use apt-get. I don't even know what kubuntu/ubuntu's gui pkg mgr is. [00:01] command line interface, terminal [00:01] /dev/media/data is created with lvm [00:02] Joshua^Dunamis: Command-Line Interface [00:02] goshawk: it says specify at least one of -c -u or -d or should I use -k all? [00:02] can you guys run divx in full screen ? [00:02] goshawk: I don't see that directory [00:02] there are currently 3, frustrat3d, all incomplete and confusing [00:02] i can [00:02] linux-hdtv: that's AWEsome [00:02] ! :( [00:02] radovic: you use the default movie player ? [00:03] nooo [00:03] it is horid [00:03] :) [00:03] what do you use instead ? [00:03] VLC ? [00:03] sorry, not horrid, I just don't like it [00:03] I am used to kaffeine, but now, I use smplayer [00:03] VLC also [00:03] I like kaffeine and vlc [00:03] you know, frustrat3d, i think MS is buying off key linux people to sabotage their projects. [00:03] har... I'm not that paranoid [00:03] smplayer is the one I used to wathc fullscreen movie last night [00:03] ok, how should I install VLC ? [00:04] horia: apt-get install vlc [00:04] thanks frustrat3d, yes I know it very well, I used Debian Sid for three years [00:04] should I search for a .deb or is a better way ? [00:04] frustrat3d: thanks [00:04] Joshua^Dunamis: sorry. didn't expect that acronym question from a more seasoned user [00:04] just install from a repo [00:04] well micro$oft f****** up a lot of things with vista :P [00:04] horia: just use apt-get. it's already well supported in ubuntu's repos [00:04] apt-get install [00:05] mhm [00:05] thanks guys :D [00:05] np:) [00:05] frustrat3d: yes, sure, I see [00:05] xp was buggy ye, but vista was/still is even more. [00:05] how do you search in apt-get ? [00:05] xp is going to be replaces by Windows 7. Vista is the new name for WinME [00:05] :) [00:06] :-) [00:06] uh... dunno, install synaptic, and search in synaptic. [00:06] windows 7 rc1 has been released few days ago [00:06] really? [00:06] linux-hdtv: apt-cache search [00:07] does that look in descriptions too ? how restrict to name alone, how look for "provides" ? [00:07] What is the konsole command to edit a system text file as a super user? [00:07] like sudo something or other [00:07] Microsoft.Windows.7.RC1.Build.7100.x86 [00:08] sudo nano, PROject-Emerald [00:08] so like [00:08] sudo su [00:08] PROject-Emerald: in a gui editor or in a shell? [00:08] um, anything. I just have to edit my xorg.conf super quickly [00:08] sudo kate? [00:08] linux-hdtv: not sure, might not be able to search by provides [00:08] kdesudo kate [00:08] linux-hdtv: it will give you the 1-line summary for each package [00:08] !kdesudo [00:08] In KDE use « kdesudo » (or « kdesu » for Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why [00:09] Laeborg: yes it seems that windows 7 will be faster but I hate windows for several reasons. Did you notice you cannot watch anything in your system? now You cannot see the defrag process for example [00:10] and whats the CTRL-ALT-BaCKSPACE equivelant in Kubuntu? Thats the shortcut in Ubuntu to reset the GUI or something [00:10] excuse me for my english, I'm Italian [00:10] PROject-Emerald, same for both [00:10] PROject-Emerald, you running jaunty?

[00:39] the prob with the open source is you have to do port forwarding which isnt to easy..imo [00:39] PROject-Emerald: its a fine idea, i just think they need to open up [00:40] to register in skype? [00:40] or you could use stickam [00:40] My family? Or Ventrilo?

[00:56] A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not [00:56] going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired.

[02:03] hi [02:05] who knows about intel gma 945 and kubuntu 9.02? [02:07] rodrox are you having freezes ? [02:08] when I desktop effects is active, all the screen is slow [02:09] rodrox there are issues with intel drivers atm [02:09] i can give a couple of links for more information [02:09] https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates/ [02:10] Bug 359392] Re: [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd [02:10] bug 359392 [02:11] humm, on kubuntu 8.10 has the same problem? [02:11] thanks I'm looking on that url [02:11] they are finding these problems go back a long time [02:12] http://www.google.com/url?sa=U&start=1&q=https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/%2Bsource/xserver-xorg-video-intel/%2Bbug/359392&ei=7rTzSbPRJpCAtgPSiNT3Cg&sig2=ee9RKb56yzNbrR8p54wVfw&usg=AFQjCNERTvpsCPoGzV36R6kZdGbT3_1npQ [02:12] i am using 9.04 with nvidia drivers and kwin is a bit sluggish,any solutions for that? [02:13] KiRiLoS: check launchpad bugs for nividia [02:13] wirechief, so this is actually a bug,there's no fix for that ? [02:14] KiRiLoS: well you really need to read the descriptions of the bugs being reported and see if there is a similar one [02:14] wirechief, do u have a link?That would be really helpfull :D [02:14] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ is a good starting point [02:15] KiRiLoS: then just search on that site [02:15] This is so wrong :/ everything worked great on Gnome and i thought i should give a try to KDE and so far kwin is just a pin in my ass :/ [02:16] KiRiLoS: lots of people having issues with kde4 yet me included [02:16] and a memory hog [02:17] KiRiLoS: using over 1gb of memory of my 2 gb [02:17] wirechief, i am really thinking of going back to Gnome now that's early,maybe i should try out kde sometime later :/ [02:18] KiRiLoS: what i did was get ubuntu, then install kde, i can switch between the two when i want and keep getting the updates [02:19] KiRiLoS: i did not get Kubuntu, just kde and its basically the same then. [02:19] good for you wirechief , i thought a clean instal would be better!I wanted to try out KDE for months now and i just thought i should wait for jaunty for a clean install [02:19] KiRiLoS: well thats good strategy. [02:20] yeah,but it seems that it didnt work out that good :P [02:20] KiRiLoS: i have dual booting with other distros so mainly i only test ubuntu and kde [02:20] anyway,i'll think about it,maybe i'll go back to gnome,although apart from kwin everything else seems great in KDE [02:21] KiRiLoS: the one thing i have not tried and that is to get gnome once i had Kubuntu...you would thing that would work the same way [02:21] The funny thing is that i wanted to try out KDE mainly cuz of kwin i thought compiz is too buggy :P [02:22] KiRiLoS: well compiz blacklists intel graphics now and has users outraged [02:22] oh really? [02:22] yes [02:22] if i enable it, my system will freeze [02:23] so compiz is blacklisted for me. [02:23] KiRiLoS: its more that... they haven't fixed it in two years [02:23] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) [02:23] they are finding it in Fedora too [02:24] hi all, having some trouble here with adobe flash. The apt-get command that I run in terminal seems to do nothing. Some with synaptic when i try to get flash non fre. Anyone have suggestions? [02:24] going back about 2 yrs now. [02:24] anyway,i guess i'm gonna go back to gnome with a clean install afterall,i just gotta choose bfr i start to install/configure every single program i use [02:25] KiRiLoS: good luck [02:25] i guess i'll check KDE in the next release :P 9.10 [02:26] but i feel so dissapointed :P i was really looking forward to trying out KDE! [02:27] anyone got any suggestions about intslling adobe non free flash plugin for firefox? [02:27] Nubuntu: add the medibuntu repos [02:27] somehow I knew that... [02:29] I don't think Flash is in Medibuntu [02:29] !info flashplugin-nonfree [02:29] flashplugin-nonfree (source: flashplugin-nonfree): Adobe Flash Player plugin installer (transitional package). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 10.0.22.87ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 1 kB, installed size 40 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 lpia) [02:29] package should be flashplugin-nonfree [02:29] Yeah, it's in multiverse [02:29] hmm [02:29] what's lpia? === harry is now known as Guest89432 [02:30] Dunno offhand [02:30] hey geek, I added medibuntu, did the apt retreval for non free flash, and I still get nothin. The file is in the repo. It just deosnt seem o be installing [02:31] I found a fix for this about two days but i forgot it already [02:31] hello. anyone else having trouble installing or getting to work the proprietary drivers for nvidia on jaunty? [02:31] Oh dude [02:31] I had that yesterday, look for 180 proprietary drivers in synaptic after you add restricted repos [02:32] ok i'll try that [02:32] nvidia you might need the 17x series, im not sure wuch nvidia driver you need, i just know how to get them [02:33] so any suggestions about flash? [02:35] join #ubuntu [02:35] Heh, I just blew my parents minds with the cube desktop effect [02:36] wirechief, i just thought of something,what if i used compiz on kde?Maybe that would solve my prob! [02:36] after upgrading to 9.04 Audacity 1.3.7 will not open FLAC files! i tried downloading 1.3.5 from the intrepid repo, but still no cheese. this is very serious for me, so i would be very grateful for any help [02:37] cant get flash non free to install, help [02:38] I was running into this problem with 8.10 and had thought it would be fixed in 9.04, but it still has the same issue. I have set guidancepowermanager to Do nothing if my battery reaches critical level. I do this because it runs for 3 minutes on a fully charged battery (that lasts 4 hours under Vista) and then suspends. The problem is that it still suspends, even if I tell it to Do Nothing. Is there a better power manager I can [02:39] I'm having an issue.. I just upgraded my system to Jaunty and now I can't get FireFox to add a security exception for localhost:10000 It says. "localhost:1000 uses an invalid security certificate The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed. ( Error Code: Sec_error_untrusted_issuer) before it always gave me the option of adding an exception but now it doesn't can someone tell me how to add an exception? thanks [02:40] toker: try going into Options, then Advanced [02:40] toker: then Encryption and click View Certificates [02:41] toker: then go into the Servers tab and click Add Exception [02:42] bendodge: thanks for the tip.. got it now.. [02:42] wish they'd set that back to the way it was.. [02:42] :) [02:42] toker: np [02:43] toker: i hadn't noticed the change [02:43] toker: maybe it's a protect-users-from-themselves thing [02:43] kinda freaked me out for a second. [02:43] and since I have never had to add one manually before.. I had no clue how to do it.. HA HA HA [02:45] Is there a different package manager in Jaunty? [02:50] i really, really need to be able to open FLAC in audacity [02:53] why not convert FLAC -> wav, edit, then convert wav -> FLAC? [02:54] how am i going to convert FLAC to wav? [02:54] this probably isn't the best place to get support for this problem [02:54] there has to be tools for that [02:55] although it appears to be more-or-less jaunty's fault, since installing an old audacity package didn't fix it [02:55] how do I change the size of a partition [02:55] anything from command-line tools to setting output from your media-player of choice to file instead of soundcard [02:56] true, but these are hour+ speech files [02:56] so anything sort of re-streaming is out [02:56] Does anything really work in this release? I can't open System Settings > Advanced > Service Manager because it complaines that it can't contact kded. If I try and run kded it just says Aborted and fails to launch. All I want to do is launch powerdevil. What a frustrating evening. [02:56] CLI tools should work though [02:58] bendodge: if you use for example xmms (i guess it's called audacious now), and set it to output to file, it won't do it in 1:1 timescale, it will do it as fast as your cpu permits [02:58] but it's easier to script i think [02:58] jpedroza1: i have encountered quite a few issues as well.. [02:59] DurtDiggler: I think the easiest way is to use gparted.. i think there might be a qtparted or something like that for kde as well [02:59] astrolite: I had fewer issues in the Alpha releases. [02:59] bendodge , install soundkonverter [03:00] How the fsck do you start powerdevil? [03:01] I just installed kubuntu within my regular ubuntu... but when i log out and login another session with kde I can't find where I can connect to a wireless AP at. can someone tell me where? [03:01] jpedroza1: ok. my display settings aren't stored properly when i have dual monitors, so i have to go into settings before it realizes that a new monitor is there.. i have had problems with the printer settings not being stored, damage sections not updating properly, the theme handling is broken.. [03:01] jpedroza1: can't start it from console? (not running kde at the moment) [03:02] jpedroza1, sys settings/advanced/service manager [03:02] fwaokda: do you have knetworkmanager packet installed? [03:02] astrolite, dont think so can i install it from within ubuntu? [03:02] astrolite: Looks like I was missing a bunch of kdebase debs. Now that they are installed I can get into Service Manager and see powerdevil as running. [03:03] fwaokda: yes, use your packet-manager of choice, the packet is named: knetworkmanager [03:03] jpedroza1: ok, so broken dependencies.. i've had that problem when going kubuntu->ubuntu and ubuntu->kubuntu [03:03] never had that on a fresh install of either though [03:03] astrolite, okay and one more thing... is there a way to have my kde apps to only show up in my kde menu and not also in my applications menu in gnome? [03:04] fwaokda: it is possible, i however, do not know how. [03:05] okay thanks well let me see if the network manager installed correctly thanks again! :) [03:05] gnome and kde use their own system for handling this, but i don't know what compatibility layers are there and what is packaged [03:09] i lose my wireless connection when resuming from "suspend to ram" ?? [03:11] Have they found a fix for connecting to a wpa-eap network? I can't connect to my university's network since I upgraded and I can't find an answer anywhere online. [03:13] gundam_rx78nt1: I don't know the details, but I was under the impression NM 0.7.x supported that [03:13] I tried all day today to get it working at the university with my intel 3945 card (iwl3945) [03:14] It failed. [03:14] gundam_rx78nt1: mmm [03:14] I can connect to wep and wpa-tkip [03:14] with no problems, it's the wpa-peap that fails. [03:14] gundam_rx78nt1: wpa-psk, you mean [03:14] i lose my wireless connection when resuming from "suspend to ram" ?? anyone know why [03:14] yes, sorry. [03:15] gundam_rx78nt1: this isn't the answer you want, but have you looked into using wpa_supplicant directly? [03:15] and bypassing NetworkManager [03:15] Not really but if it will work... then so be it. [03:16] That really detracts from the "experience" they boasted... [03:16] gundam_rx78nt1: look at /usr/share/doc/wpa_supplicant/README*modes* [03:16] and http://samat.org/weblog/20061122-connecting-to-the-columbia-medical-centers-athens-wifi-network-with-linux.html [03:16] I even tried using wicd and it failed. [03:16] Ok. [03:16] that configuration worked great for me with my university's wireless [03:17] gundam_rx78nt1: I've not used wicd... but I don't think any of these GUIs support advanced wireless encryption stuff [03:17] Ok, I will look at those and try it again on monday... [03:17] though at the low-level, it's all there [03:17] and works *great* [03:17] thanks xjjk. [03:17] gundam_rx78nt1: does your unversity's wireless authenticate with certificate or login/password? [03:17] login password [03:18] gundam_rx78nt1: OK... my config should be *very* similar to whatever you'll need, AFAIK [03:18] may need to change a cipher or something [03:18] I used it for years with an Intel 4965 [03:20] Great. I am out of here. SQL project to finish. Thanks xjjk. That is your site? [03:20] gundam_rx78nt1: yes [03:21] Nice work. Take care. [03:21] gundam_rx78nt1: thanks, take care and good luck [03:25] Oh ha ha. I keep on forgetting to add 'install' right after 'apt-get' Silly me.. [03:26] Is there a fix for lowering the CPU % of plasma? [03:30] keyboard inputs suddenly stopped working, and I think I hit some stupid key combo [03:31] halp [03:32] !cloak [03:32] Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks [03:33] okay, I restarted the OS and the keyboard works again [03:34] also, why the f**k can't Kubuntu remember the screen resolution I set [03:34] I have to set it again every time I reboot [03:35] to be precise, I have to enter the config screen, because it's set as soon as I do that [03:35] so retarded [03:36] what's the command to re-enable ctrl + alt + bcksps [03:36] dontzap or something [03:36] reinis: kubuntu does that to me as well [03:37] bendodge_: System Settings -> Display, there is a checkbox [03:37] thanks [03:37] you're welcome [03:38] fyi, the CLI is dontzap --disable [03:38] (from the KSudo prompt) [03:38] !dontzap [03:39] To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable » [03:39] oh! and Plasma Workspace now crashed [03:39] because I was freaking resizing the taskbar [03:39] that's what I call stable [03:41] what the hell, the text in the taskbar became larger after ir restarted [03:41] it's an inconsistent freaking piece of shit [03:42] and text in Dolphin did the opposite and is smaller now [03:43] * reinis marvels at the software engineering masterpiece that this thing obviously is [03:43] reines, what hardware are you running [03:44] ken: VMware Workstation 6.5 [03:44] wanted to see if it's good enough to put on a real machine [03:44] kubuntu or vmware [03:45] the former, obviously [03:45] vmware works very well [03:45] how can i turn down visual settings to improve performance in kde? [03:46] ok, i had Audacity doing a large file operation and went upstairs [03:46] oh brilliant, now I have visual glitches showing [03:46] i came back and X was at login [03:46] the OS is basically crapping itself [03:46] i lost all my settings [03:47] (plasma settings) [03:47] can i get it back? === sachin_ is now known as sachin_kumar [03:47] i have not shut X down properly since [03:47] bendodge_: no, it's a piece of shit. [03:47] !language [03:47] Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [03:48] even though this is frustrating :P [03:48] so all i can do is re-set up all my plasmoids? [03:49] hi all [03:52] I'm trying to create a backup and Jaunty keeps failing when accessing my external HDD and alternate internal HDD. It does a very small amount of the xfer and then I have nothing. [03:55] fwaokda_: system settings, desktop, special effects [04:13] how do I create a file in root [04:14] sudo touch file [04:17] i just discovered "gnome do", veerrry cool! [04:18] oops, wrong chat [04:19] hey what's the name of the grub loader file [04:19] and where is it [04:20] like ntldr or grldr [04:20] where can I find it [04:20] '/boot/grub/stage1' [04:20] I need to chainload to it from grub4dos [04:20] ok thanks [04:21] im using kubuntu on a laptop with an intel 965gm display adapter, how do enable terminal transparency and compositing? [04:22] fen_: Are you using the 'intel' driver? [04:22] im familiar with xorg, but my xorg.conf is nearly blank and dpkg-reconfiger xserver-xorg gave no option for driver selection [04:23] Section "Device" [04:23] Identifier "Configured Video Device" [04:23] EndSection [04:23] Open the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf , then add driver "intel" in section "device" [04:23] how do I get root access when using the file manager [04:23] DurtDiggler: try 'kdesudo dolphin' [04:25] Is it possible to install Kubuntu from SD card? [04:26] miklcct: how do I get it to always open like that [04:26] is there a kde equivelant of software sources? [04:27] fen_: What sources do you mean? [04:27] fen_: maybe you want KPackKit or adept [04:27] DurtDiggler: You must run this command to get root access in file manager. [04:30] is there some trick to getting the icons to stay in the menu? i go in & set the icon via the menu editor, click save, exit the menu editor, re-enter the menu editor & no icon... & no icon in my kmenu either [04:30] anyone start with Ubuntu w/gnome and go and add KDE , and if so, any stability and/or performance issues? [04:30] binskipy2u: there's no problem with that really. [04:30] and whats the diference from installing KDE or kubuntu-desktop? [04:31] i have af inely tuned 9.04 install now, but i like kde also and many things about it [04:32] I just upgraded to Jaunty and KDE 4.2 and my mouse (Logitech Cordless MX Laser) has been spotty at best. The cursor moves properly, but I can only click a limited number of places - (I can launch Firefox from the Quick Launch, but I can't click any links in firefox, I can right click on the desktop, and use the menu, but virtually nothing else. I thought it was a KDE issue because it seemed... [04:32] ...to work in gnome, but then I had the same problems in gnome. I thought I may have had some broken packages, but I just D/L'd the iso for 9.04 and used the live CD with the same results. Is this just an incompatibility with this mouse, or is there something I'm missing? [04:33] Josh__: yeah sounds like your mouse settings are a bit off (like imps2 vs ps2), have you tried another mouse? [04:33] hi all. i have a legacy ati card (x600). is there a 9.04 repository to get the legacy fglrx driver? [04:33] I chainloaded to stage1 and it brought me to a grub command prompt [04:33] Josh__: curious - I have the a MX mouse which works fine [04:33] how do I get it to read the menu.lst file [04:34] like it would If I booted to that drive [04:34] doleyb - unfortunately no, I took my spare in to the office, so i'm left w/out a backup here [04:35] Josh__: Well you should need to have more mices, they are cheap and small. get ems [04:35] Josh__: Then u can install MPX, and have 2 mices on one screen. [04:36] hmm ok i have glxinfo saying direct rendering: yes but konsole still wont do transparent terminals [04:36] is there something i have to turn on to enable compositing? [04:37] doleyb: lol I'm not that co-ordinated! Think it could be conflict with something else I have hooked up? [04:40] how do I allow root logins [04:40] !root | DurtDiggler [04:40] DurtDiggler: 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 [04:41] DurtDiggler: we dont support root logins, sorry. [04:41] haha [04:41] what [04:41] !supportroot | DurtDiggler [04:41] DurtDiggler: We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) [04:42] haha [04:42] never mind i found the problem, i right clicked on the title bar and enabled desktop effects [04:42] i need some help with installing the legacy ati fglrx driver. the open source driver does not do what i need. [04:43] some poeple use linux as a utility [04:44] it's not that big of a deal [04:44] DurtDiggler: why do you want a root log in? [04:44] I want access to anything I need whenever I need it [04:44] DurtDiggler: Im sure you can find the info on google, but we dont support it here. [04:44] simple as that [04:44] ok then [04:45] DurtDiggler: you can do that with sudo. it gives you power user rights [04:46] I didn't see any place to put "sudo" when using the file manager [04:47] open a terminal, then type sudo dolphin and then hit enter [04:47] err [04:47] kdesudo dolphin [04:47] no thanks [04:48] that was a bit ridiculous [04:48] However, I beleive the option to have a root dolphin is coming soon. [04:48] DurtDiggler: If you like, you can make a shortcut to root dolphin in your menu [04:48] I know and Ill be doing this for like 100 things over time [04:49] I use linux as a utility I don't have time to sit and become a linux expert [04:49] DurtDiggler: you suck [04:49] not that I have a problem with that but Im using it as a utility for other project I'm working on [04:49] DurtDiggler: not only are you endangering your own safety, but you are opening your machine up to being used as a zombie for other attacks. [04:49] those projects are just higher on my list of things to learn :) [04:50] really [04:50] amazing [04:50] even whle it's not booted up [04:50] DurtDiggler: learn basic Unix skills or shut up [04:50] my dyndns.com ddclient is not running and giving the following errors. http://pastebin.com/m18274ac6 can any one help please ? [04:50] DurtDiggler: really, is it that hard to enter a password every now and then? [04:51] reinis: please keep it civil [04:51] I didn't see where to enter the password on the file editor [04:51] but why is everybody taking this so personal I jsut asked a question haha [04:51] DurtDiggler: Ok, all we need to do is creat a root dolphn shortcut - its quite simple [04:51] DurtDiggler: because I'm frustrated by kubuntu sucking so much [04:52] ok thanks [04:52] DurtDiggler: however, you need to understand not to use it for everything - only things that need root [04:53] DurtDiggler: just enable the root login and use that [04:53] haha yeah [04:53] don't listen to jussi01, you don't have to be anal about security for a dev box [04:54] * reinis raises eyebrow [04:54] how did I part without parting? [04:54] I removed you [04:54] reinis exactly [04:55] DurtDiggler: its up to you what you do, but please dont ask here for a root password [04:55] I'm surprised that irssi closed that window [04:55] honestly all I want to do is get my damn grub4dos to boot to this linux system incase I need it for a utility sometine [04:55] sometime* [04:56] assholes shouldn't be able to close my windows because I don't have logging and so destroys the info there [04:56] and right now I need it to resize an openwrt partition on a CF card [04:56] which I might like to keep [04:56] that's it [05:01] how can i make a file app to run everytime on system boot ? [05:02] theuser1: add it to /etc/init.d and /etc/rc?.d [05:02] miklcct: i have to add it in both?

[05:07] not is a epson cx5600 [05:08] i now instal the driver in ubuntu x86 but i don't know in ubuntu x64 === mike is now known as Guest84122 [05:09] geovanny: how did you install it in x86? === diego is now known as Guest87096 [05:12] http://www.ubuntu-es.org/index.php?q=node/69308 her say how install [05:13] Hi all! [05:14] hello [05:15] So I upgraded to 9.04 and am still scratching my head. My new confusion can some one point me to a how-to about making amarok look like it did in 8.10.. I mean the new UI for it is just awfull. [05:16] Anybody seen this error? [05:16] update-alternatives: internal error: /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/ttf-japanese-mincho.ttf corrupt: missing newline after update_mode [05:21] good evening [05:22] I've just realized since the upgrade to jaunty, my audio isn't full duplex anymore...could anyone point me to where I'd find the checkbox to activate that? [05:24] What is the debconf command to change the license prompts (from java for example) from KDE to dialog etc? [05:24] !debconf [05:24] debconf is a configuration management system. All packages that support debconf are configured when they are being installed. If you want to change a configuration option later, you can do so using dpkg-reconfigure [05:26] Oooh crap, that wasn't the command I wanted to run [05:28] k that was easy enough [05:28] :) [05:35] when we install an application, it will install its dependencies as well, so how do we remove an applications with it dependencies as well? [05:36] JohanSJA: depends on which program you're using for package management; with apt, you can run apt-get autoremove [05:37] p_quarles: thanks, it is ok for me to use the terminal [05:37] as long as there is a way [05:38] so i don't have to track everything all the time [05:38] good morning :) [05:44] Can someone help me with a fairly serious kubuntu issue? [05:45] i suddenly lost sound in kubuntu... this happened after a suspend/resume - any suggestions on how should i debug this ? [05:46] Happens to me all the time =\ [05:46] PROject-Emerald: you mean losing sound after suspend? [05:47] Losing sound after suspend, hibernate, and prolonged Kubuntu use [05:48] damn.. is there a bug for this - i sure would like to file one [05:53] Also, my Kubuntu spazzed out after about an hour of Kubuntu use my Kubuntu locks up and I'm not able to click on ANYTHING. [05:53] It all freezes and I'm forced to manually restart. [05:53] EG power-button [05:54] Thus losing all of my data. [05:54] PROject-Emerald: hmm... that happened to me once - thought it was a one-off incident [05:55] It happens to me every hour or so. [05:55] what does dmesg say ? or /var/log/messages [06:10] I just installed kubuntu yesterday (wiped ubuntu 8.10, trying out KDE) and I have no sound. I made sure that the PCM and Master were all maxed in alsamixer, but still nothing. Any ideas? [06:10] Drizzt321: is you jaunty? consider removing pulseaudio package [06:10] doleyb: no, this is 9.10 [06:10] doleyb: err...9.04 [06:11] sorry [06:11] !jaunty [06:11] Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 - Please use !torrents [06:11] and the pulseaudio package is not installed [06:11] ah, yea, sorry, I keep forgetting which code name is which release [06:11] I guess you don't accidently have alsamixer MM [06:11] alsamixer MM? [06:11] doleyb: oh, no, I don't have it muted [06:12] This is on a laptop with the built in intel-hda chipset. I've tried cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp (with volume turned down somewhat), but i get nothing out of the speakers === jay is now known as Guest82103 [06:14] doleyb: interesting, my user wasn't in the audio group by default [06:18] Hey guys. In Jaunty, where is the setting to stop the session from locking after a certain amount of time? [06:18] default: System Settings [06:18] default: There are 2 sections [06:18] OK... [06:18] default: Display has one, the other is in Advanced tab, then Power Management [06:19] default: May also want to check Desktop > Screen Saver [06:20] draik_: hmmm... nothing is set to lock session, but it does anyway... [06:21] no luck :( I still don't have sound [06:21] Hello ppl is the KDE probs solved ? is it safe to migrate fm Ubuntu to kubuntu ? [06:23] draik_: i turned off "Suspend after 15 minutes". I hope this works! [06:23] Rohan_SM: well, so far I'm loving KDE4...except for the fact that I have no sound on my system, anywhere [06:23] no with new release is it ok bcoz I had few stablity issues [06:24] it was performing poorly on my dear old P4 [06:26] Drizzt321: I was going to say before you left... I had the same issue. Turned out that I had PCM at 0%. Check it. [06:26] draik_: thanks, but thats not my problem :( [06:26] one of the first things I checked [06:27] I guess I ll give it a go in next week [06:29] ok, that was really weird [06:29] somehow the master got muted [06:31] Drizzt321: Got audio now? [06:32] draik_: yea [06:32] :) [06:32] I distinctly remember that the master was un-muted, and still wasn't getting any sound [06:32] and then I just checked, and magically it was muted [06:32] although...this time I did check with sudo, instead of just running it as my normal use [06:32] user* [06:33] My issue is that this laptop has high CPU from /usr/bin/plasma. My desktop, for no aparent reason, disconnects itself from my network. [06:33] youch [06:34] Upon someone's suggestion, I'm going to make a backup and then reinstall 9.04 as a fresh copy as opposed to the upgrades I've done over the past few years. [06:35] Tonight, I am just making backups. I work tomorrow so I may just lay the foundation of the install before heading out to work, then start my package upgrades when I get home. [06:35] yea, probably best [06:36] I just backed and wiped my 8.04->8.10 stock ubuntu install [06:36] to install this [06:36] For some odd reason, external HDD was disappearing so backup there was null. Tried alternate internal HDD, but that failed too while the drive was still mounted (go figure). [06:37] Can't SSH when the computer decides to crap out on the network connectivity. [06:37] So, I'm burning out a bunch of my DVDs. I'm glad I bought a 100-pack spindle yesterday. Had only a handful or so left from the last 100-pack spindle. [06:37] wow, thats just weird [06:38] you could always boot from the live install cd [06:38] and backup that way onto external hdd [06:38] True [06:38] But there isn't much on there so the 'borrowed' DVDs have to get burned either way [06:38] ah, ok [06:39] anyway, off to watch my video :) [06:39] good luck! === yaa__ is now known as yaa_ === dtech is now known as d-tech === chx is now known as chx_sleeping === R3DB0x is now known as dnl [06:58] Hey, how the heck do you turn off this stupid eye candy? [06:59] System Settings -> Desktop -> Desktop effects === eugen is now known as Guest36948 [07:00] and for future note: You are more likely to get help by not calling things "stupid" or any other insulting adjectives [07:00] You're asking him to dishonestly supress feedback and be less informative. [07:02] I don't seem to have a "System Settings" either in the new or old Application Launcher Menu, nor the [07:02] - nor the [07:04] Computer tab in the new launcher [07:04] It should be at the top [07:04] Ah. Thank you very much. [07:05] Just never been a huge fan of eye candy. At any rate, thanks ^_^ [07:06] np [07:09] Okay, now how do I turn off the sound that plays any time a notification window pops up? [07:09] Ah yes, that drove me nuts as well [07:09] System settings -> Notifications [07:10] Choose your event source and the n otification then disable the sound aspect [07:13] Hmm, I don't think thats a kde sound though :o. It sounds kind of like a drum. [07:14] Hi, can somebody please tell me how I could remove this? http://paralines.net/nouveau/kde4.png [07:15] Hi. I have kubuntu 8.10 and my adept-updater offers me the upgrade to 9.04... Is it recommended? Is 9.04 stable and reliable? And will i lose any desktop settings like plasmoids with updating or will it case some apps incompatibility? [07:15] Lugia010719d1: I suggest you upgrade at some time... maybe wait a few days until more people have used 9.04. One application that I've seen loses setup is Amarok. [07:16] Lugia010719d1: But there are various real improvements to 9. [07:16] And you can read the release notes from the topic [07:17] J550: I am not sure you can. [07:17] 56 [07:18] RurouniJones : Thanks. And do you think I am the only one bugged by this? [07:18] It was annoying for me too, I like having my plasmoids in the corners [07:18] You can move it. [07:19] Oh yea [07:19] Heh, didn't notice [07:20] That corner shape is called the "cashew". [07:20] I am cursed to have two cashews on my desktop at once! [07:20] I have dual screen but only have one, how did you get that? [07:21] ok thanks [07:22] J550: Well I switched to dual screens in lower rez, then I switched back. Now I have one in the proper corner, and one where the corner was on the lower rez. Both are live and separately clickable. [07:22] Wow, pretty annoying. [07:23] It would be worse if I ever clicked at the desktop for any purpose. [07:23] amarok 2 is the default in 9.04 so once you get over that its pretty nice [07:23] But since I now know this thin is called casew I Googled it. And it apppeard that you can remove it. [07:24] nvm what I said about Audacity and FLAC earlier. reinstalling Aud. and restarting fixed it. it still shouldn't have done that to begin with though. [07:40] Hey, I have an interesting situation. I'm using KDE, but for whatever reason, I'm getting UBUNTU sounds whenever I press a button. [07:41] What are the minimum disk space requirements for Kubuntu? [07:43] I only use 5 GB,because I have windows and ubuntu8.04 [07:43] How do I install kubuntu along side ubuntu? sudo apt-get kubuntu-desktop? [07:43] comfanter: Does it run well with 5GB, and how much free space do you have? [07:44] Yes,it works quite well,67% is used === blaze is now known as Guest49240 [07:45] I've downloaded some software,like gcc,cokeblocks,etc [07:47] comfanter: Ok, thanks! [08:06] quick question, I've done it before (in fact, two days ago) but I forgot. How do I get partially translucent titlebars in kde 4.2.2? [08:08] Hi I recently upgraded to jaunty, I'm unable to hibernate [08:11] Can anybody help me to get hibernate working on my kubuntu jaunty machine? [08:12] nevermind.. found it.. [08:17] I use eva to login QQ,but it stoped at 82%,anyone can help? [08:24] Has anyone had any instability problems with Kubuntu 9.04? [08:27] my computer froze two hours ago [08:27] that was the only time it happened in kubuntu [08:27] 9.04 [08:27] good moring [08:27] morning [08:28] I was wondering if it is possebly to have 2 desktop on 2 screen with kubuntu 9.04 with a nvidia card? I know it was broken in 8.10 but have it been fixed? [08:29] just installed kubuntu-desktop along side with ubuntu, but I'm unable to login to kubuntu === MuzerAway is now known as Muzer [08:31] hi, what is the command to lock the screen in kubuntu? [08:31] "An internal syster:A problem that we were no" [08:32] Uh, 9.04 _is_ release quality, isn't it? o_O [08:37] Is there a way of making a .deb package when make install is not available (ie you give the app a list of the files it needs to include, then fill in the details as normal)? [08:38] what package do I need to install to get Firefox? [08:39] package name = firefox [08:39] heh [08:42] every time I use gparted to resize a partition on my CF card it looks like it's doing something at first then it just sits there with that little animation going forever [08:42] and never ends [08:42] does this thing resize partitins [08:42] partitions [08:44] Hey all. I don't get on the #kubuntu IRC very often... but I just upgraded from Intrepid to Jaunty today. I freakin' love it! I haven't felt this passionate for an upgrade in a long time. [08:45] I just felt that I have to tell someone [08:46] I had some lag issues in Intrepid that Jaunty seemed to have corrected. [08:47] gmohea, it's not all that rosy after all [08:48] Hibernate doesn't work for instance... [08:48] I tend not to use hibernate... so I wouldn't have noticed that. [08:49] Any other problems? I have seen nothing but improvements in the last 12 hours [08:49] it does work from the command line though [08:49] after installing uswsusp [08:50] and running the command "sudo s2disk" [08:50] but then, there remains the problem of integrating this command with the hibernate menu [08:51] gmohea: what graphics do you have? [08:51] I've misspent 6 years of Windows XP blah-ness. Kubuntu 9.04 is amazing compared to it. Well done y'all! [08:52] I am running on an old IBM ThinkPad laptop with an Intel integrated graphics card and running Compiz [08:52] gimp+wacom+arecordmydesktop+kubuntu+kdenlive = all what i need [08:52] gmohea: compiz? are you on kubuntu or ubuntu? [08:53] Kubuntu [08:53] gmohea, and there's also the problem of security: resuming after hibernate doesn't lock the system.... [08:53] gmohea: kubuntu (kde) does not use compiz .. [08:53] yes you can use compiz devilsadvocate [08:53] There's just no point any more [08:53] Peace-: why would you want to ? :) [08:53] instead of kde effects [08:53] since kwin in virtually all respects is just as good [08:54] devilsadvocate: something like zoom desktoo works better [08:54] gmohea: can you check and tell me what your cpu usage on idle is like? [08:54] Muzer, but there's no desktop cube in kwin, is there? [08:54] there is in KDE4 [08:54] gmohea: have u problem with intel card ? slow effects? there is a solution for that [08:54] sorry [08:54] 4.2 [08:55] Muzer , ok how to get it , [08:56] gmohea:anywy problem with intel card can be solved with this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 [08:56] I have gotten used to Compiz... I just like it. It is not so much slow effects as a bit of a lag. But since I have upgraded, I noticed the lag is gone. [08:56] Peace-: i do. he's happy with it. im trying to determine the source of my issue [08:56] Peace-: downgrading to the old driver did not help. it pushed cpu usage up from 50% to 95% [08:56] Muzer, i have kde 4.2.2 [08:57] gmohea: read this article https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 === sandra_ is now known as sandra_ch [08:57] Prabz: KDE --> Computer --> System settings [08:57] Reading... BRB [08:57] Desktop --> All Effects [08:57] tick the one(s) you wnat [08:57] press apply [08:57] devilsadvocate: in that tutorial is said not every graphic card can use old driver . [08:57] In Kubuntu, Help brings up KDE Help Center. Is there any (K)ubuntu help/documentation? [08:58] as with compiz, you need to have supporting hardware and the proprietary drivers if it is NVIDIA or ATi [08:58] Peace-, so i am still without a solution [08:58] scratch that, I see "Kubuntu documents" at the top of KDE Help. No worries! [08:58] hey skierpage :) [09:00] I've just upgraded to 9.04 and my "task manager" widget doesn't work any more, so I can't see apps on the task bar [09:00] Just see a red cross, "unknown widget" [09:00] devilsadvocate: wait is for the stongest [09:00] Peace-: read the article... but I am seeing an improvement over Intrepid, not a degredation. [09:01] toby_: Try readding it? [09:01] gmohea: there are 2 ways. the first keep the new driver [09:01] Muzer: Yes, I tried that to no avail. I also tried making a new panel at the top of the screen but I get the same red cross [09:01] gmohea: they are faster than older one on 2D [09:01] gmohea: but they sucks on 3D [09:02] gmohea: the second way is install the old driver , nice in 2D nice in 3D [09:02] I'm not a gamer, the only 3D effect that I use is the Cube, and that is rendering fine [09:03] gmohea: keep the new driver [09:03] and wait [09:03] or you could use debian [09:03] xD [09:03] It's what I'ma gonna do. [09:04] Debian? I switched to Kubuntu for a reason : ) [09:04] gmohea: i know i know but debian it's faster [09:04] * Peace- has compiled the kernel and kde is on 232 mb [09:05] anyone know how to setup virtualbox at all [09:06] !virtualbox [09:06] virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [09:06] thanks [09:08] I've played with Debian... and was underwhelmed by it. I have a good set-up with Kubuntu. [09:09] debian+kde4.2.2 it's faster [09:09] because of kernel [09:09] What do I need to install to get compiz effects? [09:09] sudo apt-get install compiz [09:10] CoJaBo: Or use kwin's effects [09:10] and another package tha i don't remember [09:10] kwin has almost as many effects as compiz [09:10] and kwin is installed by default, more integrated and easier to configure [09:10] Muzer: Wheres that at? [09:10] ^^ [09:10] Just press KDE --> Computer --> System Settings --> Desktop --> Tick "Enable desktop effects" --> Click the "All effects" tab [09:10] tick what you want, then press apply [09:11] note that, as with compiz, you need supporting hardware, and if it is NVIDIA or ATi, you need the proprietary drivers. [09:11] do you speak french? [09:11] !fr [09:11] Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [09:11] et voilà lol [09:11] xD [09:12] c'est ou ici? [09:12] Muzer: The card is intel. Also Compiz has a settings manager that has a vast amount of settings, that is what I'm looking for. [09:12] CoJaBo: Well, that is kwin's settings manager. If there isn't what you want, then yeah, install compiz. [09:12] but kwin's effects are enough for most people to be a compiz replacement [09:13] i have both :) [09:13] I'm not sure if intel cards work, but if they work with compiz, I assume they will. [09:13] I have Compiz installed... I like it better than kwin, and I am running an Intel card. Compiz works great [09:14] I just find that compiz doesn't integrate very well [09:14] wtf but i can rotate the cube with the middle mouse button [09:14] with kwin [09:14] how did you get it? [09:14] when I used it, a few apps were glitchy, and the logon screen didn't fade nicely to the main desktop (like with kwin) [09:15] compiz it's heavier than kwin effets that is sure [09:15] Compiz seems to be installed, but the settings manager is not there. Is there anything else I need for the settings manager? [09:15] CoJaBo: just a second [09:15] CoJaBo: compizconfig-settings-manager [09:16] Is there an Amarok 2.1 beta packaged for Kubuntu anywhere? [09:16] search the ppas [09:16] Peace-: Ok, trying to install that with kpackagekit gives the error "A problem that we were no" ...? [09:16] The standard version has broken podcast features and broken last.fm scrobbling. [09:17] CoJaBo: sudo apt-get install stuff [09:17] last.fm scrobbling works fine again for me in the beta but podcast functionality is even worse than in the last versionn [09:17] Peace-: Trying that now, looks like kpackagekit is still pretty buggy :/ [09:17] CoJaBo: not here :) [09:18] CoJaBo: but yes it has some kind of problem [09:18] CoJaBo: it's new ... wait and be patient [09:18] harolddong: I'm trying on http://ppa-search.appspot.com/search?search_key_word=amarok but the results are not at all informative. Is there some better search? [09:18] kpackagekit is sorta wonky I usually just use aptitude [09:18] Peace-: apt-get is saying that a dependancy "python-compizconfig" is not installable... Any suggestions? [09:19] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas [09:19] CoJaBo: what did you done with your distro ? [09:19] CoJaBo: some kind of repository problem i guess [09:19] Not much so far. All repositories are default. [09:20] good morning [09:20] harolddong: thanks, similarly non-informative results, but I already found something promising [09:20] overall I like the amarok 2.1 beta better than 2.02 but its ashame about the podcasting [09:20] Its a clean install too (an upgrade attempt failed horrifically). [09:20] just wondering if kubuntu/kde has a nice way to display the time quickly across different timezones? [09:20] CoJaBo: locate that python stuff [09:20] I remember in gnome clicking on the clock would open a drop down menu that showed the time, whether it was day or night and the weather [09:20] that was kind of nifty [09:21] Peace-: How? [09:21] CoJaBo: if you can't install it that means you have some kind of problem with repository [09:21] !repository [09:21] The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [09:22] dbglt: The digital clock plasmoid has the ability to change the time zone through Preferences [09:22] Lynoure https://launchpad.net/~gnumdk/+archive/ppa === Muzer is now known as MuzerAway [09:25] kpackagekit is crashing a lot in 9.04 [09:25] or only on my pc ? [09:25] I'm actually at a loss. Now that I have setup kubuntu 9.04, I actually don't have anything that doesn't work to tweak :( [09:26] B-Minus: seems to work here [09:26] yes it works but when i add/remove a source it crashes [09:26] B-Minus: will try it here too [09:26] ok [09:26] B-Minus: i never seen it crashing , some time it blocks [09:26] try adding a third party source [09:26] this new notification "kde needs you to install blah" [09:26] or remove one [09:26] is amazing [09:27] yay for packagekit [09:27] kpackagekit=fail [09:27] install adept. [09:27] B-Minus: Got a spare third party source off the top of your head? [09:27] CoJaBo: it's not a fail it's a new software [09:27] I use adept to install stuff [09:27] I keep getting the error"A problem that we were no". :/ [09:27] packagekit integration is decent though [09:28] and only improving, made some big leaps [09:28] It's almost 1:30 here on the West Coast. The coffee shop is about to close. I'm outta here. [09:28] gmohea: bye! [09:28] dbglt: nope, but when you disable one it should crash too [09:28] gmohea: here in verona it's 10.28 am [09:28] xD [09:28] not even remove [09:28] everytime I boot up I have to manually do "sudo modprobe ath_pci" to get my network card to work [09:28] kde was re-written [09:28] B-Minus: interesting [09:28] rememeber that [09:28] 10:28 am in florence! [09:28] any ideas why this isn't done automatically? [09:28] JohnFlux: eas to fix [09:29] Peace-: cool [09:29] JohnFlux: sudo nano /etc/modules [09:29] B-Minus: heh just a sec, seems my dpkg is working [09:29] West Coast as in California... tootles all! [09:29] JohnFlux: then add ath_pci [09:29] JohnFlux: to the last line [09:30] one line one module [09:30] save exit and reboot [09:30] Peace-: done. any idea why it isn't loaded automatically though? [09:30] you will se [09:30] JohnFlux: depends how you install it [09:30] does 9.04 not even come with adept? I've been running it since the beta so adept is still there. I assumed 9.04 just came with both [09:30] that is the madwifi driver [09:30] B-Minus: yep [09:30] crashes here [09:30] Peace-: ath_pci is madwifi? ah [09:30] heh [09:30] B-Minus: But oddly enough, enables the source [09:31] (or disables it) [09:31] dbglt: indeed [09:31] software-properties-kde [09:31] that a kubuntu component? [09:31] JohnFlux: that is the madwifi driver ... and it's better than ath5k , the open driver for atheros wifi card [09:32] Peace-: yeah so I noticed. I don't get any reception on the ath5k driver [09:32] JohnFlux: well it's not correct at all the driver works but i think it has some kind of problem with networkmanager [09:33] B-Minus: it's not packagekits fault [09:33] JohnFlux: infact if you write : sudo iwlist wlan0 scan it shows you networks [09:33] B-Minus: packagekit doesn't crash, just the kubuntu part. Will file a bug [09:33] JohnFlux: but with ath_pci it works better so.... [09:33] dbglt: ok tnx [09:33] JohnFlux: i use that [09:34] Peace-: thanks. I was using ndiswrapper, but upgrading to 9.04 didn't go that smoothly and broke it :-) [09:35] JohnFlux: look at this http://www.vimeo.com/4259951 it works perfectly [09:35] :) [09:35] with a bad intel driver XD [09:35] graphic driver [09:35] :) [09:35] hi all; quick question (please no flames or discussion; just a simple yes/no will do): does kubuntu install mono for any reason by default. I believe ubuntu does so I want to know if that's true for kubuntu also [09:36] Is there any thing else I can try to get the full compiz settings? [09:36] * sitaram waves to JohnFlux [09:36] sitaram: i think no [09:37] you need of mono only for moonlight i think [09:38] so you have to add some kind of repository for that [09:38] OK... So six months and 9.04 is out, and KNM still blows. Seriously? [09:38] Peace-: OK, sounds good... (I guess I should try, but my bandwidth isn't that good for me to do a 700 MB download and then not use it :)) [09:38] knm = knetworkmanager? [09:38] inanimate: what's your problem ? [09:39] 9.04 is still shipping the horribly broken beta version of KNetworkManager? [09:39] sitaram: i download a 700 mb in 12 minutes [09:39] xD [09:39] Peace-: you don't live in India :) [09:39] B-Minus: test something quick? Add a new random source (eg. deb http://google.com apple cake) [09:39] inanimate: i have no issue here with atheros madwifi and use plasmoidnetwrokmanager [09:39] B-Minus: then enable/disable it [09:39] B-Minus: (if it doesn't crash) [09:40] inanimate: with wpa2 [09:40] dbglt: ok will try now [09:40] sitaram: I live in italy [09:41] cool; used to be our country-in-law, as I like to call it ;-) [09:41] dbglt: not crashing [09:41] KNetworkManager worked flawlessly for me on 9.04 (which is impressive considering in all previous versions none of the actions even did anything at all). [09:41] B-Minus: try enabling/disabling a different source. It only seems to crash for one of mine [09:41] sitaram: bah i dunno it's a country like the others with problems and good stuff [09:41] Peace-: Ah, plasmoid-network-manager is a lot better. [09:41] Sweet. [09:41] dbglt: indeed, it keeps crashing on the middle one [09:42] B-Minus: the top one for me. Odd. Anything special about your middle one? [09:42] B-Minus: mine is the kubuntu install media [09:42] inanimate: if you want see here at the beginning you see how it works http://www.vimeo.com/4259951 [09:42] inanimate: i have an fucking atheros ... one of the worse wifi card on my life [09:42] and it works [09:43] dbglt: mine is http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu [09:43] Peace-: You and me both... [09:43] Peace-: But you're using madwifi, eh? That was something I was never able to accomplish. [09:43] B-Minus: odd, that one works fine for me heh [09:44] inanimate: madwifi man [09:44] inanimate: atk5k sucks [09:45] I'm actually using ndiswrapper. [09:45] inanimate: you should use svn version because madwifi official relaase can be compiled [09:45] Peace-: wierd. I got one secondhand, which woeks magivally [09:45] at some point i need to work out how to do master mode tho [09:46] Huh... Well I should try that out at some point... Anything beats ndis. [09:46] madwifi works here perfectly [09:47] but you can use it without compile if [09:47] you try with sudo modprobe ath_pci [09:47] Yeah, ath_pci is the one that never worked. [09:48] I'll try it again though... Maybe 9.04 actually isn't broken. [09:48] Be back... [09:49] geek_: you mean ath5k? [09:50] good morning. I accidentally downlaoded and installed ubuntu 9.10, when I wanted kubuntu. Now figuring it was fine, I installed kubuntu-desktop and while I *do* have the kubuntu desktop now, knetworkmanager did not install. I installed it manually but it still won't come up automatically. if I start knetworkmanger manually it sees the wifi network and I can put in my key but it doesn't seem to try to connect. [09:50] did I miss some step along the line? [09:50] B-Minus: added a new bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/367209 - feel free to add anything I have left out [09:52] dbglt: looks good, lets hope they find the bug [09:52] i found a bug but i don't know if i should file it under kde or vbox: enable a vbox virtual machine's "3D Acceleration" and start the vm (guest os: win xp), and then you will find dolphin and systemsettings' window title menus lose shadow. [09:52] tzanger: I use the plasma applet now. [09:52] tzanger: mmm kwalle is on? [09:52] tzanger: but 9.10 i think.... hehehhe [09:52] *kwallet [09:53] Well holy damn. [09:53] I can't believe I'm saying that madwifi is actually working. [09:53] Peace-: well some kinda atheros card, running the standard driver jaunty comes with [09:54] geek_: but when i was on alpha4 it worked with ath5k [09:55] geek_: then i dunno why but with beta ti didn't work anymore i guess for a bug with networkmanager [09:56] Peace-: i had some issues with the previous device i used so i switched over to a PCMCIA one. I don't know what that box uses since its xubuntu/lxde based [09:56] Peace-: And here's a bizarre question: Does the NM plasmoid have "xxx" right before it says "Connected to ..." [09:57] * yao_ziyuan meows for attention [09:57] inanimate: ?? screenshot [09:59] Peace-: http://imgur.com/23wO.png [10:00] inanimate: it should be fine * i think* [10:00] It works, it just looks stupid. [10:00] Does yours look like that? [10:00] What would you recommend for podcasts in Kubuntu? [10:01] inanimate: i have seen before [10:02] Peace-: but now i can't seee anymore becasue with kwallet turned on it connect automatically [10:03] so i can't see anything [10:06] Lynoure: you mean record your dekstop with audio? [10:07] Lynoure: the best is using recordmydesktop , but i got an issue with my microphone so i use my script [10:08] dbglt: how do I go about using it ? [10:08] the KDE service manager shows it's not running, but says I can't manipulate any of these services (not even when running under kdesudo) === antti is now known as hypo [10:08] nm-applet works just fine [10:09] tzanger: have you got an antenna looking thing on your panel? [10:09] but that's beside the point, I want to remove the ubuntu desktop after this [10:09] dbglt: when I run nm-applet, yes [10:09] Peace-: for listening to them [10:09] basically what I want to know is if I have ubuntu, how do I go about installing KUBUNTU without downloadng the CD image and reinstalling [10:09] Peace-: I used to follow about 20 with Amarok, but Amarok2 is very buggy podcastwise. [10:09] apt-get install kubuntu-desktop is apparently not enough [10:10] #runtu [10:10] (only lets me add 7 of them, for starters, and does not remember the status) === kristoff is now known as kristoff__ [10:10] is there a way to force an application to use glx v. 1.3 instead of 1.2? Or is there a package I need? [10:11] no more konversation :( === kristoff__ is now known as gesgeor [10:16] dbglt: what's the panel applet called? maybe I'll just jump to that [10:16] tzanger: network management [10:19] tzanger: worked out of the box here. No need for networkmanager [10:19] how come konversation isn't the default IRC client anymore? [10:20] Chr|s: i think it is because it is not updated to kde 4 [10:20] Chr|s: yeah, that's right. It's being worked on. Quassel is pretty decent in the mean time [10:20] thats too bad [10:20] quite a big fan of it at the moment [10:21] bummer [10:21] http://konversation.kde.org/ [10:21] Chr|s: you can always install it, should be in default kubuntu repositories [10:22] (kde3 version) [10:22] k3b is still kde3 too [10:22] not much else left as far as I can tell [10:22] dbglt: i don think quassel really compares to konversation [10:22] I agree [10:22] heinkel_112: depends on what you need. I only need a simple client, and the buffer is kind of nifty. I like the highlighting + integration into kde messages too [10:22] in ubuntu 9.04 when i plug my nokia phone, it automatically detects it and configures the 3G connection...however the same feat cannot pe performed kubuntu.... [10:23] anyone with a solution for this please...? [10:23] i used to have mirc on windows a long time back, and most other clients are lacking features / scriptability that mirc has [10:23] quassel is really feature-poor [10:23] anyone please ? [10:24] acid420: find out which application handles it in ubuntu, and install it on your computer? [10:24] hello all [10:25] would be nice if i could, however i just dumped the ubuntu for kubuntu :) === alaxa27 is now known as balarox [10:26] any idea heinkel_111 [10:26] if it was me, I wouldn't of released kde 4.0 and not have all the programs ported to 4.0 yet [10:26] acid420: generally you can run gnome in kubunt [10:26] hello after installation of kubuntu 9.04 i noticed that my system doesnt have sound. amarok or vlc are quit as they play mpegs or sound files. need help! :( [10:26] quiet [10:26] :( i would rather stay away from that..... [10:26] too many libs and deps [10:26] acid420 that came out wrong... i meant to say generally you can run gnome applications in kubuntu [10:26] i hate that [10:26] oh yeah.... [10:27] kubuntu is great though.... [10:27] does the partition editor not work [10:27] acid420: sudo apt-get install "the package you want" takes cares of all your dependencies [10:27] everytime I use it no matter what I'm doing it never finishes [10:27] it just goes forever [10:28] I know it doesnt take 6 hours to create a 500MB partition [10:28] yeah i know about sude heinkel_111, it's just that i'm not really keen on installating 1 application that has say 10 dependencies...... [10:28] that kinda piss me off.... [10:28] acid420: at the risk of sounding patronising, are you an ex-windows user? [10:28] with QT and kde, things are much more simple and clean... [10:29] no i'm not [10:29] is there anything other than partition editor [10:29] hello after installation of kubuntu 9.04 i noticed that my system doesnt have sound. amarok or vlc are quiet as they play mpegs or sound files. need help! :( [10:29] Anyone ever heard of a .ccd (CD copy) file. Any support for this archive format on Linux? [10:29] does anybody know how I can create a partition [10:30] no offense taken heinkel_111 [10:30] acid420: ok, it just sounded like you installed packages like in windows, manually handling all the dependencies [10:30] been using debian for a very long time.... [10:30] how do I use the LCD weather station? [10:30] whmm [10:30] okay [10:30] I've installed wicd, (which promptly killed my network) [10:31] apparently /etc/init.d/wicd isn't doing its thing [10:31] I can run it manually [10:31] and wicd-client [10:31] actually switched to gentoo a few years ago.... [10:31] acid420: you should not find this distro too difficult to handle then. it pretty much is debian [10:31] then got tired on compiling.... [10:31] but now whwen I connect it complains that encryption's required... I have manually used wpa_passphrase and wpa_supplicant to get connected again [10:31] lol [10:31] what package am I missing now? [10:31] yeah... [10:31] cheers heinkel_111 [10:31] :) [10:31] :) [10:33] hello [10:33] I've been trying for 3 days to resize a partition === balarox is now known as alaxa27 [10:33] does anybody konw what I can use to resize a partition [10:34] Is there a way to make firefox's tabs not look terrible on kubuntu? Part of them is clipped and there is no clear separation between them. I googled for this problem and came across a few posts mentioning that using 'qtcurve' would solve the problem, but the only thing it changed was the scrollbar... === william is now known as Guest26221 [10:34] all this thing does is show this little graphic going back and forth [10:34] p-f, 9.04 fixed this for me [10:34] Hi, I've upgraded to jaunty , and i still cant get hibernate to work. any ideas as to how it can be done? [10:35] Guest26221: how do I know what version I am on and why should it matter if I'm on the latest version of packages? [10:35] ridiculous [10:35] -f, it fixes your problem? [10:36] Guest26221: ah, /etc/issue [10:36] Guest26221: but still, why should the version number matter? It's all the same repository, no? [10:37] p-f, the problem is that firefox is a gtk based application (on linux) although they are working on qt version [10:37] imo the gtk firefox implementation SUCKS! [10:37] and is buggy [10:38] how long should it take for partition editor to create a partition [10:38] but is my only alternative on linux, because no matter how much I love opera, I can't stand the way it leaks memory on linux... [10:38] 12 hours [10:38] 5mins 10secs === user____ is now known as kav_38 [10:39] DurtDiggler, it really depends on the size of your hard drive [10:39] do you have a big hard drive? [10:39] Guest26221: I thought firefox was not a gtk application, but based on a mozilla foundation toolkit [10:39] 500mb [10:40] it's a CF card [10:40] does it not partition CF cards [10:40] I have acer 5210 kde jaunty workks very slowly. Can you help me? [10:40] I've been trying for 3 days to partition it [10:40] what is the program called under kde that upgrades to 9.04? [10:41] I can do it in 3 seconds in windows [10:41] I have updated my desktop. [10:41] bummer LCD Weather Station doesn't do local weather [10:41] err [10:41] but I need a ext2 partition [10:41] Guest26221: update-notifier-kde -u [10:41] thanks [10:41] np [10:42] "6 packages are going to be removed, 130 new packages are going to be installed, 1202 packages are going to be upgraded" [10:42] lovely [10:43] bets are now open! How many things will break? [10:43] p-f: podcasting and last.fm on amarok [10:43] Hi, can anybody help me with kubuntu not hibernating? [10:43] is apt-get dist-upgrade different to using the kde update-notifier-kde? [10:43] p-f: at least :) [10:43] Lynoure: last.fm is _already_ broken on amarok :) [10:44] is there any other partition editor other than this gparted [10:44] p-f: was not on ibex for me... [10:44] Guest26221: you will have to change manually your repos [10:44] just to reassure you: in my case only usb and internet were broken :D [10:44] Lynoure: I really like how kubuntu ships with a horrendously outdated amarok, too [10:44] p-f: this time it's amarok2 [10:44] Lynoure: ah neat [10:44] Lynoure: so my collection will break :) [10:44] partedmagic is sweet [10:45] p-f: you can import it... it will forget your ratings and not know about the keywords you have added. [10:45] is there a way to turn kubuntu into a smoothly updating thing? Like on gentoo, I could simply keep upgrading packages from the repository and never had to do any weird brutal updates like 8.1->9.04... [10:45] Anyone ever heard of a .ccd (CD copy) file. Any support for this archive format on Linux? [10:45] p-f: it will forget all your podcasts, and only let you add 7, which it forgets the status of... So, now I'm looking for a podcatcher to replace it. [10:45] Dekans, ok [10:46] on my desktop everything worked fine. I did (and always do) backup and delete my .kde folder and star a fresh one [10:46] Lynoure: why 7? [10:46] artpoetryfiction, try poweriso [10:46] p-f: I don't know, did not go debugging. [10:46] p-f: not yet, at least :) [10:46] p-f: you could switch to 9.10 as soon as theres a new repository for it [10:47] p-f: but you'd risk get a broken system [10:47] how can I get ktparted [10:47] qtparted [10:49] hey i found the problem with my sound hurrrrrrrrra [10:49] Lynoure: yeah, there are more interesting things to do than debugging random applications :\ [10:49] i used alsamixer and noticed that everything was muted [10:51] if you check this text from server and have the same problem use "sudo apt-get install alsa-tools" to get alsa tools then start alsamixer in terminal and check if channels are muted you can see that that there is an M use cursor keys to switch the different options [10:52] p-f: I'd find it interesting, just more urgent things to do right now. I'm trying jpodder as an alternative for podcasts now. [10:55] Prabz: don't see it in the repos, and google gives me a Windows app [10:56] artpoetryfiction, poweriso for linux is free.. ;) [10:57] artpoetryfiction, http://www.poweriso.com/poweriso-1.3.tar.gz [10:58] Hi, did anyone hear about a solution for the "Jaunty freezing Xserver" Problem?

[11:08] hmm okay I think I have this mostly the wya I want it now... thanks or the help :-) [11:08] what's the proper way to remove all the gnome crap in there now? [11:09] yeah THANKS FOR FUCKING NO HELP [11:09] !puregnome [11:09] If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 ; sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 ; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » [11:09] !purekde [11:09] If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » [11:09] whoops :) [11:09] aha thanks Prabz [11:09] bazhang, lol [11:10] tzanger, np [11:10] now if I could only find a window scheme that I like. plastik was awesome, but the plastik one in 9.10 has HUGE buttons [11:10] can't seem to shrink 'em [11:10] tzanger, you mean 9.04, don't you? [11:11] hello- using msi wind, I can't get the list of wireless accessible networkds [11:11] er yes 9.04 :-) [11:12] Prabz: can't I just apt-get remove [some-gnome-base-library] and have it remove everything depending on that? [11:12] lsmod showed that the driver loaded (after installation from my part) [11:12] the purekde docs are old [11:13] bazhang, now your turn ... tzanger ... ;) [11:13] eh? [11:13] tzanger, to get rid of all gnome stuff? [11:14] bazhang: yeah. I've done an initial apt-get remove --purge and listed a bunch of gnome- prefixed packages. wil see whatis left afterward [11:14] sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop [11:14] tzanger, and the list on that link did not do it? [11:15] isn't that enough , bazhang ? [11:15] dpkg -l | awk '/^ii.*gnome-/ { print $2 }' :-) [11:15] bazhang: I didn't want to use the list if it was old [11:15] Prabz: no [11:15] it's definitely not enough [11:17] hi, someone know the command for redirecting the output of dmesg on a text file? [11:17] tzanger, ok, i'm too learning..... [11:17] :-) [11:17] > [11:18] linux ? [11:18] Prabz: :-) I thought that woudl have done it too, but it doesn't remove anything that ubuntu-desktop installs -- ubuntu-desktop, like kubuntu-desktop is just a virtual package [11:18] i think it was dmesg > dmesg.txt [11:18] that's strange [11:18] ok [11:19] Prabz: no, not strange at all... when you remove a package, you remove it and anything that depends on it [11:19] linux, dmesg gives me an error [11:19] can u halp me? [11:19] a virtual package like ubunutu desktop does not have anything depending on it -- it depends on a ton, which is why it installs all the stuff you need [11:20] nice, powerdevil looks GREAT [11:22] hi i noticed ubuntus tool to connect to a windows based system. what will happen if i know a windows system and his ip his network name and a drive what is part of the internet. can i connect to it?

[11:49] anyhow [11:49] I upgraded my kubuntu 8.04 yesterday to 9.04 [11:49] a little buggy still ;) [11:52] I think font size differences in gtk and qt can often be attributed to xorg config and driver options [11:53] somethings manually setting the dpi in xorg.conf rather than relying on gtk or qts auto detect mechanisms is a better option [11:54] I find that I have to set the dpi manually when connecting my external monitor because the fonts are way to small [11:54] LOL [11:54] lol what?

[14:06] maribel and now they think this bug is really a year or so old so it could be in 8.10 but not as severe, most users having issues are having freezes [14:06] wirechief: hmm, I see. Fortunately I don't use that stuff [14:07] maribel me either but i still crashed and burned. something got 3d all excited and if froze [14:07] How do i fix it please http://rafb.net/p/EQ9PfN95.html ?

[14:21] [mors], wirechief, yes i ended up adding knetworkmanager to the startup file in sys settings so it would take precedence over the Network Manager widget application , which IMO should be scrapped === anny is now known as emy [14:23] anyone successfully play 3gp file in jaunty ?

[14:56] My kpackage and adpt don't work, they don't show apps and don't update the list of packages... Any solution for it? I have searched about it but I didn't have progress. It's the 3th day Im in this problem without solutions.. =( [14:57] BluesKaj: i noticed that wifi didnt automatically get connected if i just unplugged the network cable and maybe thats the reason, knetwork isnt installed. [14:57] wirechief, a dirty way is to use the locate command in the terminal . locate knetworkmanager [14:58] I lost all sound capability since upgrading to jaunty. Im using a Dell inspiron 1545 which has a Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) [14:59] BluesKaj: well i know but nicer to know if its installed hahah. but i do have some knetworkmanager stuff as indicated with locate [14:59] Henry_BR, have you tried apt or aptitude in the command line ?

[15:15] hello all, I am trying to use the "usb-creator" with kubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso, the process finishes successfully but when I start up and ask the computer to book from the usb drive it just sits there [15:15] Hystoriker: i only question whether the md5sum matches .. if not you dont have all of what your suppose to have and you can have weird issues occuring. [15:16] the usb drive is detected but and the partition is set as bootable [15:17] Hystoriker: if the media checks the md5sum you could just have a unique bug but no-one can guess the answer.

[15:25] did you click on apply , doleyb ? [15:26] BluesKaj: Yes, but why would notifications have anything to do with gtk? [15:26] functionality? are you kidding ? [15:27] Maybe exaggerating a little, but theoretically someone could want a notification with sound.

Is that the one you have installed ? [15:57] BluesKaj: no, i was referring to the closed source xorg-driver-fglrx which builds its own kernel module, that one causes garbage & freeze when installed [15:58] i'm wondering if this radeon mobility hd 2600 card falls into the "not supported by ati binary driver anymore" category [15:58] BenPA i don't really know... as far as i understand it, you can define different activities: IE one for when ur watching movies, one when ur online, etc. you can also assign an activity to a desktop and thereby get different desktop backgrounds for different desktops [15:59] any odeas how to get sound working when watching a flash video [15:59] robin0800: so is radeonhd my only hope for 3d acceleration?

Or is there a repository available?# [16:46] no action though. [16:46] bulletgani: its sunday [16:47] :-) [16:47] not sure if it is a wide spread problem or some config / HW dependent problem [16:48] If I want to get Amarok 2.1 beta on my computer, will I have to compile from source? [16:48] trying to see if other prople are also having issues .......... more info --> easier for devs to fix issue [16:49] marcus____: if ther is a deb available use that if not yes [16:49] robin0800_: Do you know if a .deb is available? [16:49] marcus____: no [16:49] I don't like amarok 2 [16:50] ubuser: nor me [16:50] robin0800_: If it's not easy to find a .deb on kubuntu.org or amarok.kde.org, then should I presume there isn't one? [16:50] Or a repository* [16:51] * robin0800_ rhythmbox [16:51] marcus____: google search [16:52] marcus____: I would pose the question on ubuntuforums.org [16:52] ubuser: OK, thanks. [16:53] Oh dear - I've been using Gentoo too long. [16:53] marcus____: I would look for the amarok progect pages [16:53] Never mind - it's available in backports, apparently. [16:54] Just activated a few disabled repositories from Intrepid, and it's there. [16:54] Why is this kde4.2.2 the absolute winner on the desktop vs gnome yet it appears to be the redheaded stepchild of canonical? [16:55] ubuser: I think its sleeker than gnome though more things are broken [16:55] ubuser: Well they had to prefer one or the other, and they choose gnome. Why? Tough to say! I'll guess either OO-antipathy or anachronistic license stringency. [16:55] not yet any version of cinelerra for jaunty? [16:55] upgrade to jaunty killed all my sound. Im going mad. [16:56] chris_w: Did you check removing pulseaudio package [16:56] chris_w: Pulse audio [16:56] That was fine two or three years ago but today the preferred choice should be kde 4.2.2 [16:57] ubuser: Yes but alot is broken [16:57] doleyb, robin0800_: no, I'll try that now [16:57] ubuser: Many, many people would dispute that KDE4.2.2 is the "absolute winner on the desktop". [16:57] ubuser: I don't think it was true 3 years ago either... KDE was working great before gnome had even been started. Regardless, they're stuck and won't think of switching. [16:57] robin0800_: I wouldn't say, "A lot", just, "more then Gnome".# [16:57] There isn't that much broken [16:57] robin0800_: Gnome seems almost unbreakable. [16:58] robin0800_: KDE isn't, "unbreakable", but it doesn't, "just break" any more, either. [16:58] ubuser: mobile broadband,bluetooth and ati graophics [16:58] At least, very seldomly at best. [16:58] Gnome has lots of breakage. I used it for 2+ years prior to kde 4.2 being released. It has/had lots of problems [16:59] ubuser: It does? I stand corrected. [16:59] doleyb, robin0800_: pulseaudio is not currently installed - ? shouldnt it have installed in the update? [16:59] ubuser: I just dislike Gnome because it feels much harder to change anything. [16:59] chris_w: No it shouldn't, but a lot of times pulseaudio did install, which broke things. === jhutchins_kc is now known as jhutchins [17:00] ubuser: mp3 player usb is the only thng [17:00] marcus____: I agree that it's too hard to change, and that restriction amplifies some of Gnome's UI design flaws. [17:00] I dealt with a large number of probe with constantly. Each update screwed with more thing. Many have been worked out but there are many left [17:00] blame GTK [17:00] Anyway, got what I came to get now - now my brother can be happy. He likes Amarok 2 but found too much that was buggy in 2.0.2. [17:00] LOL [17:00] XD [17:01] ubuser: I use both depending what I need [17:01] Never did like GTK. If Qt is like glass, then GTK is like cardboard. [17:01] hehehe [17:01] doleyb: well it isnt currently installed and the sound is broken nonetheless. Shall I try installing pulse? might that fix it? [17:01] Sorry I'm typing this on my iPhone while at the laundromat. [17:01] hello [17:01] chris_w: You can give it a shot... what was your sound card?

[17:02] xcept software might not get much newer [17:02] !pulsaudio | chris_w [17:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about pulsaudio [17:02] Hi is there a way to tell KpackageKit to put a package on a 'do not upgrade' list or something ? [17:02] !pulseaudio | chris_w [17:02] chris_w: PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions [17:02] doleyb: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) [17:02] doleyb: i dont hear anything when i try streaming with amarok [17:02] PhilippeP: The name for that status is package "on hold" [17:02] very strange [17:02] enlightened [17:03] Anyway. Going now. See you guys later. [17:03] B-Minus: can you play local mp3s in amarok? [17:03] PhilippeP: Aptitude can do that [17:03] doleyb: other people have had the same problem, but none of their fixes work, and there isnt much documentation on the issue yet as far as I have found [17:03] doleyb: how do I put something 'on hold' ? [17:03] doleyb: dunno im gonna download a mp3 [17:03] !audacious [17:03] Sorry, I don't know anything about audacious [17:03] !vlc [17:03] Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).

[17:04] chris_w, pulseaudio and alsa are defaults in jaunty [17:04] draik, just kill it [17:04] lol [17:04] hi. Why does switching in the task bar slow in kubuntu jaunty release? [17:04] draik_: I haven't gottan a single update since firefox 3.0.9 which was last Tues I think. [17:05] BluesKaj: so its odd that pulseaudio wasnt installed in the update then? === ZaphodBeeblebrox is now known as Guest61500 [17:05] rmrfslash: Think they are on strike [17:05] robin0800_: I don't see that option in Aptitude... [17:05] chris_w, unless you were using a different soundserver in 8.10 [17:06] robin0800_: apparently! Or they could be hard @ work [17:06] but that's no fun. [17:06] chris_: kde typically shouldn't use pulseaudio. Should use arts alsa [17:06] PhilippeP: Read the manual page man aptitude [17:06] rmrfslash: I had a similar issue with kde4, but that slowly resolved itself. [17:07] doleyb, check your media setup in sys settings [17:07] BluesKaj: ok, so given the fact that I had no custom sound configuration in hardy (just the defaults) is it strange that pulse audio is now not installed after the update to jaunty? [17:07] robin0800_: ok man is more useful than help :) === ZaphodBeeblebrox is now known as Guest10436 [17:08] anybody? is that a bug in kubuntu? [17:08] PhilippeP: More extensive I would say [17:09] hardy used OSS i believe , so if you didn't upgrade to 8.10 then 9.04 it follows that pulseaudio wasn't triggered to install , i think :) [17:09] OK, Well having installed pulse audio im now going to reboot and see if its made a difference. I dont have high hopes. Thanks for all your help people [17:09] BluesKaj: You mean Multimedia? I don't see anything relevant. [17:10] doleyb , no pulseaudio ? [17:11] BluesKaj: Maybe you've confused me for someone else. [17:12] hey all. [17:13] yo [17:13] hey ActionParsnip [17:13] ActionParsnip: YoYo [17:13] * ActionParsnip waves [17:13] Need help... In Jaunty, I installed wicd, which uninstalls network-manager and the plasmoid for it. Well, wicd doesn't want to work, so now I have no networking, and cannot figure out a way to reinstall the original packages... :( [17:14] I have the Jaunty DVD I used to install, but for some reason, can't get KPackageKit to pull files from it. [17:14] ign0ramus: you can use /etc/network/interfaces to setup the connection [17:14] ign0ramus: You need Network-manager [17:15] ActionParsnip: how's that? [17:15] ign0ramus: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ [17:15] no doleyb, I assumed you had told chris_w to install pulseaudio , but I thought it would have been installed by default in 8.10 from which which i assumed he had upgraded not hardy which uses OSS. [17:15] robin0800_: I know - can't install it without networking. [17:15] ActionParsnip: checking your link. Thanks. [17:15] ign0ramus: setup the connection manually and you can then reinstall it [17:15] i always do it that way [17:15] ActionParsnip: sounds easy, but we shall see :) [17:16] ign0ramus: if its wireless with wpa its a bit trickier but totally achievable [17:16] ActionParsnip: so if i turn off encryption temporarily, it should be easier, yes? === tackat_ is now known as tackat [17:17] ign0ramus: i guess yeah [17:17] ign0ramus: i use wep which is easily implemented in that file [17:20] ActionParsnip, there's whole load of problems with knetworkmanger being relegated to the boonies in 9.04 ..it has to be called up with the run mnd and then installed as /usr/bin/networkmanager in autostart in order to avoid the problems with Network Manager , which is totally buggy from the getgo. [17:20] err run cmnd [17:21] ActionParsnip: sorry, got disconnected... do you have an example of the interfaces file for wireless? [17:22] ign0ramus_: No direct connection? [17:23] ign0ramus_ cat /etc/resolv.conf should give your status and important info [17:23] yeah, but then I lose connection on this desktop :( [17:23] I can't install the packages from the install DVD? [17:24] ign0ramus_: on my laptop a reboot finds it automaticaly [17:24] BluesKaj: only gives DNS servers [17:25] robin0800_: what do you mean? do you let the install disc in and reboot? [17:26] ign0ramus_: Yes and chose repair [17:26] robin0800_: i'll try that [17:26] I don't seem to be able to activate new keyboard layouts after upgrading to jaunty. Is this a known problem? [17:27] completely unrelated, but does anyone else have to shutdown using CLI? The GUI buttons don't seem to work - the system just hangs [17:27] Lynoure: no [17:29] robin0800_: well update-notifier-kde doesn't about chnges made with aptitude ... [17:29] care [17:32] how do i see what verision of wine I am running? [17:33] is there a command that prints Wine's version # to the screen? [17:33] robin0800_: you tried, and can change them? [17:33] look in adept , beatzz [17:34] For me it's like the green "add" arrow does nothing. [17:34] ign0ramus_ , how about : sudo ifup wlan0 ? === Darkrift2 is now known as DarkriftX [17:36] BluesKaj: thanks [17:38] robin0800_: I'm asking because if it happens just to me, I'll try some things before reporting a bug, but if it happens to others, too, I could report on. [17:40] piksi Kano is a linux master [17:41] wirechief: i consulted him and he confirmed the compatibility of my adapter, so building manually the latest ati driver fixed the issue :-) [17:41] piksi i saw.. his scripts are awesome [17:41] Is there a magic "make horizontal scrolling work properly on my touchpad" setting somewhere? [17:41] Lynoure: I'll check and get back to you [17:42] robin0800_: Thanks [17:42] p-f_: have you tried gsynaptics? [17:42] doleyb: it seems to be installed [17:42] p-f_: But did you run it? [17:42] piksi what is amazing is they are designed to fix issues with proprietary drivers in kubuntu and make them work, he has a photographic mind for ATI stuff [17:43] doleyb: I did now, and horizontal scrolling is enabled. Still doesn't work, though. [17:43] robin0800_: the live CD with DHCP enabled me to connect and get the packages i needed. thanks! [17:43] p-f_: Did you get jaunty? [17:43] doleyb: yup [17:44] doleyb: it broke a few things, but horizontal scrolling never worked at all [17:44] wirechief: yeah, it's rare to see a custom script work that well :-> [17:45] can some one tell me why the wecam icon on kopete is gone kopete 0.70.2 [17:45] OK, now i have "network-manager" and "plasma-widget-network-manager" currently installed, but I cannot run either... any ideas? [17:45] doleyb: I also ran gsynaptics-init just in case [17:45] i run kopete with LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so kopete [17:45] but the webcam icon in the chat windwo is gone [17:46] p-f_: is your touch pad a synaptic? [17:46] doleyb: good question - it's whatever comes with dell inspirons [17:47] Sometimes the network manager will not connect to my wireless network. It just says connecting to my wireless network, then it doesn't do anything, it just sits there. Anyone know what is wrong? [17:47] neo644: Yes its not very good [17:47] piksi if you take a peek at that script with a editor youll wonder how the heck it does what it does, ive been using his distro with ubuntu kernels now for almost 2 yrs [17:48] It is the only problem i have encountered wth KDE so far [17:48] ign0ramus_ knetworkmanager has to be installed as /usr/bin/networkmanager in autostart in order to avoid the problems with Network Manager , which is totally buggy from the getgo. [17:48] neo644: Bluetooth? [17:49] BluesKaj: I think my problem was that the widget has to be manually added to the task bar [17:49] I have bluetooth with my wireless radio [17:49] ign0ramus, don't use it [17:49] BluesKaj: putting my encryption back on the router, and testing... [17:49] BluesKaj: why not? [17:49] but im not using it [17:49] good morning all. Is there any idea when the Jaunty kde 3.5.10 remix will become available? [17:49] it's too buggy , yer better off with knetworkmanager [17:49] neo644: Doesn't work with my phone [17:50] BluesKaj: what does "too buggy" mean? [17:50] robin0800, that isnt the problem though, im using a regular connection to my wireless router [17:51] it'll take 6-7 tries to encrypt/wpa and then it might fail ever 2nd time ...i found it a total PITA on our laptop === jpsnl1 is now known as JP-sNL [17:51] BluesKaj: Yes gnome works much better [17:52] Why is *no one* seeding the kubuntu 9.04 64 bit alt cd ?? [17:53] emma: No ones got it? [17:53] BluesKaj: ok, connected again on the lappy. why should i not use the network-manager widget? [17:53] I would seed it if I could get it?! [17:53] knetworkmanager and Network Manager are 2 differnt apps ..Network Manager is the buggy one [17:53] in other news, upgrading to jaunty broke vim syntax highlighting [17:54] p-f_: that's a flaw in vim syntax highlighting. [17:54] BluesKaj: so i should install "knetworkmanager" instead? [17:54] emma: usually people download the ubuntu 32 bit regular cd the most [17:54] emma: really, how so? [17:54] neo644: we need to have people supporting kubuntu [17:54] well ignoramus, if yer comnnected leave it for now , you may have better luck than I did [17:54] p-f_: wasn't robust enough to withstand a dist upgrade. [17:54] emma: I would expect the distro to take care of that [17:54] and the kubuntu 64bit alt is probably less needed [17:55] ignoramus: I wouldn't Just the gnome one [17:55] neo644: how am I going to get it then? [17:55] BluesKaj: fair enough, I've had enough screwing with Jaunty for a while... the only thing bugging me is that to shutdown from Kmenu doesn't work (hangs), but from CLI it works fine... wtf? [17:55] emma: I would download it the regular way [17:55] emma: Download the image [17:55] Since the servers are much better today [17:55] emma: how does one go about fixing it manually then? [17:55] google isn't helping much [17:56] neo644: is there a way for me to seed it once I get it? === patrick is now known as Guest4110 [17:56] emma: I dont think so [17:56] p-f_: Kate can do a vim style [17:56] Are you just downloading it to seed it? [17:57] robin0800, knetworkmanager is perfectly fine ..it works well as a kde app , gnome has advantages over it. Jaunty devs have decided, for some eyecandy reason, to add a widget called Network Manager which is still buggy [17:57] robin0800: kate can't run without X [17:57] I want to have it but I don't want there to be zero people seeding kubuntu 9.04 64 bit alt cd. [17:57] BluesKaj: lol knetworkmanager eats cpu... [17:57] err gnome has no advantages over it [17:58] How were people supposed to get it on the torrent if no one is seeding it? [17:58] BluesKaj: Its the old one your talking about does it do mobile broadband? [17:58] emma: you can get on the torrent, provided the tracker is still working, but you won't be able to download until you connect to a seeder [17:59] BluesKaj, will knetworkmanager work better than the plasma widget? [17:59] ignoramus: yes i have the torrent but it is queued with zero seeders and zero peers. [17:59] neo644 , dunno if it'll work better but it's easier to setup [17:59] ignoramus: If I get kubuntu 9.04 64 bit alt cd by other means can I start seeding it? [18:00] emma: yes. you can create a .torrent file and announce it, and seed to others [18:00] BluesKaj, if it connects to my wifi network every time it is instantaneously better [18:01] How can I stop gtk programs (like gimp, gedit, or gnometris) from playing noises when I click buttons? [18:01] ignoramus: will it work for people who go to the official ubuntu torrent location? [18:01] i hope someone here can help me. i'm not liking jaunty too much right now. my wireless card keeps resetting (bcm4318 using wpa encryption) itself, i can't install ati fglrx drivers because i have a legacy ati card (x600), and the open source ati drivers keep locking up on 3d games. to top it off the xorg.conf file is not standard thanks to debxconf. [18:01] emma: there are at least 11 seeders on the 64-bit alt CD [18:01] http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969 [18:02] BluesKaj, how do i stark knetworkmanager [18:02] neo644 , the widget app was not keeping the settings for pw and wpa-pk , it would fail 6-7 times til I finally put knetworkmanager into the mix [18:02] emma: use this one: http://torrent.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/simple/jaunty/alternate/kubuntu-9.04-alternate-amd64.iso.torrent [18:02] k4ever: Look at the xorg log file for what is going on [18:02] weird. why don't they merge those trackers or something. [18:02] so, anyone have ideas regarding how I could fix vim's syntax highlighting, which broke after updating to jaunty? [18:03] neo644, alt+F2 , type networkmanager [18:03] emma: currently downloading at 150kB/s, just to test out. [18:03] BluesKaj, im just gonna wing it, if i come back, that means it worked [18:03] other than changing editor, that is [18:03] robin0800: ok, standby [18:03] BluesKaj: i'm having the same problem [18:04] neo err alt+F2 , type knetworkmanager [18:04] my wireless card keeps dumping the encryption settings. does it about 3 times a minute [18:04] oh and firefox tabs still render all wrong in jaunty [18:05] ignoramus: thanks I had deluge 'force recheck' after merging the trackers and it found seeders now. [18:05] emma: :) [18:05] Hi [18:05] p-f_: my firefox tabs got a lot better. But now it has stupid button-noises. [18:05] ignoramus: what's the general feeling about the new Kubuntu? [18:05] doleyb: nice [18:06] doleyb: no noise here, but that might have to do with my sound being broken [18:06] I have a laptop with a headphone socket, however, when I put in headphones (or external speakers) the sound cuts out entirely and there is no sound through the headphones. Removing the headphones restores sound. How can I fix this? [18:06] ignoramus: I have mostly used regular Ubuntu, but about 5 months ago I did have a 2 month stint as a Kubuntu user. I saw a lot of potential but went back to Ubuntu. I wondered if maybe KDE is more mature so it's more like KDE3.5 now? [18:06] emma: I actually like it... still a little buggy, but nothing that is a deal-breaker. It looks much nicer, if that means anything to you. [18:06] emma: i like it better than the previous one, if only because of wider underlying hardware support. [18:06] k4ever, which app are you using for the settings ? [18:07] i would like to proclaim that i deleted windows xp yesterday cause kubuntu 9.04 does everything better i need at this client [18:07] emma: kde 4.2.2 is nowhere near stability of 3.5.x, but it has come a long way, and I personally believe that KDE is the future of mainstream Linux DE's [18:07] mackk431: congrats! [18:07] gotta go, BBL [18:07] kde 4 has a while to go IMHO [18:07] later BluesKaj. thanks [18:07] That's cool. I will definitely try it out then. [18:07] emma: However I'm saddened by the occasional (and hilarious) redraw corruption from plasmoids... which makes me hate plasmoids a little more. [18:08] doleyb: they are a little wonky sometimes. [18:08] may windows xp rest in peace [18:08] doleyb: what was the purpose of going to plasma, what is the upside? [18:08] robin0800: doesn't the xorg.0,log file reset itself after each reboot? my system is locking up so bad that i have to hard reset [18:08] ignoramus: Yeah I haven't been able to catch a good screenshot yet. Its not quite repeatable enough. [18:09] it will rest in pieces === ramon is now known as rgarcia [18:09] haha [18:09] Some help please [18:09] doleyb: ha, i was actually trying to get a screenshot just, now, but there doesn't seem to be a screenshot app anymore... [18:09] emma: Oh there are some flexibility advantages, not yet fully realized in my view. (The fact that plasma's design goals are barely documented is another point against it) [18:09] does anybody know the best video downloader program? [18:09] rgarcia: wget [18:09] robin0800: doesn't the xorg.0,log file reset itself after each reboot? my system is locking up so bad that i have to hard reset [18:09] ignoramus: ksnapshot should still be there... maybe it's no longer attached to printscreen button. [18:09] azureus is a good torrent downloader [18:09] every time I try to use KPackageKit I keep getting a bug [18:10] why is the xorg.conf file not standard? it would be easier to figure out what was wrong if it was [18:10] doleyb: pls comment on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdeplasma-addons/+bug/364129 [18:10] wget?? [18:10] doleyb: i heard that with plasma you can do stuff like move stuff around to any part of the screen like on the desktop or in a panel or something. [18:10] doleyb: doesn't show up when pressing prtscrn... [18:10] didn't really understand what they were saying though. [18:10] sorry but i'm new here....could you explain me what is wget? [18:10] ignoramus: Yeah, well first check with alt-f2 ksnapshot. [18:10] ignoramus: I guess they broke the hotkey, you can re-add your own printscr hotkey (like I did) [18:11] robin0800: [besides, regarding the kate comment, I'm not the greatest fan of applications that crash on exit (before saving the configuration file) and output debug info to the console] [18:11] i mean programs like Limewire,amule [18:11] doleyb: yup, it's there. how did you add the hotkey combo? [18:11] rgarcia, ktorrent [18:11] but that's just a personal preference [18:11] rgarcia: wget is a command-line program to download from the web servers. The people who told you "wget" are sorta joking. [18:11] mmm thanxx... [18:11] Ok it sort of works [18:12] Whenever i set my dns server to opendns it will not connect [18:12] Otherwise it works fine [18:12] ignoramus: system settings, input actions, right-click New Global Shortcut, Command/URL. Put ksnapshot as the command, and printscr as the button. It will conflict with an existing PrintScr binding, which you must override. [18:13] doleyb: cool. trying now. [18:15] doleyb: got it. nicely done. [18:19] how do you map a global shortcut to a bash script? [18:20] hello [18:21] when ever i start konqueror the browser, linux crashes. where do i report that as a bug? [18:21] * MuSdAv salve a tutti ^^ [18:21] Where can i find a good dock for kubuntu? === rudenko is now known as rush [18:23] oyaebu kubuntu irc [18:24] jacalope: [13:13] ignoramus: system settings, input actions, right-click New Global Shortcut, Command/URL. Put your bash script as the command, and choose a button. [18:25] awesome.... too simple, now i feel dumb for asking :) [18:25] hi there [18:25] anyone can help me? [18:25] where do i report bugs with konquror and linux? [18:25] what's your problem, roysunshine ? [18:26] !bugs|bryan [18:26] bryan: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [18:26] neo644: I'm a former Mac fanboy, out of all of the docks out there, I liked cairodock [18:26] doleyb: how do i change the default browser? [18:27] doleyb: Kickoff > System Settings > Default Applications [18:27] woops, that was for bryan. [18:27] i have a problem with video card.i put up the previous driver, now it works fine, but it recognizes me 2 videos, i cannot deselect the wrong one, so the kde menu always doesn't fill the screen and also compiz founds this problem === fh is now known as Guest16059 [18:27] bryan: Kickoff > System Settings > Default Applications... though, I've found this doesn't work too well. [18:28] rmrfslash: oh, great. [18:28] what would you do, pelican^? [18:28] rmrfslash: when i use the standard konqueror browser it crashes linux, and i just upgraded [18:28] not sure, roysunshine [18:29] i try to explain better? [18:29] no it's OK [18:30] bryan: I don't use konqueror, and I don't think a majority of people do. Though I could be wrong. I'm not surprised it is buggy, not enough ppl are using it and reporting bugs [18:30] although, perhaps you can clarify what you mean by recognizing 2 videos [18:30] i mean [18:30] with krandrtray [18:30] and [18:30] who here uses konqueror? I just want to see. [18:31] I use it from time to time [18:31] moi [18:31] Then again, it is Sunday [18:31] system prefs in video section, it finds me lvds (right one) and hdmi-1, which is set to an higher definition, but's always my monitor...and i cannot disable it because when i do it works, but then next boot it's the same [18:31] not a lot of ppl on [18:33] anybody having issues with kde apps, where inputting text into boxes goes screwy?

The card will be listed under the proper driver , uninstll the wrong driver first if need be, then install the correct one. [18:34] as much as i like the speed of jaunty after using it for one day i'm going back to mintOS. jaunty has some serious problems that i can't seem to find answers for. wireless does not work. ati drivers are screwed up again, which seems to be a them with new ubuntu releases. i'm getting lockups for no reason. this reminds me of windows 98, which is not good. was this released too soon? linux is more stable than this [18:35] ok blue i'll try now [18:35] rmrfslash: it was my default browser, so thats why i asked how to change it [18:36] bryan: oh.... yeah... switch that sh*t [18:36] k4ever: see my pm [18:36] !grub | valdur55 [18:36] How do I find qt-creator 1.1 for Kubuntu?

[20:29] mackk431- Javascript? You don't install it, it's part of your web browser [20:30] if i use a page what requires java script it says "you dont have java script" [20:30] in the same partion i install the system ubunto it was another folder espcially music folder it dissapear after installing ubinto [20:30] the new version of kubuntu is awesome [20:30] where shoud i found [20:30] mackk431- what web browser? [20:30] firefox [20:30] mackk431: java script is default in nearly all browsers [20:31] mackk431: i thing you mean java plugin [20:31] And did you install an extension that disables Javascript? [20:31] Or did you disable it in the Firefox settings? [20:32] in addons is "IcedTea java Web Browser Plugin" and it is activated [20:32] That has nothing to do with Javascript [20:32] there is nothing else what says java [20:33] should prfer for 2.4 intel procceror [20:33] i tried this before "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" [20:33] not working [20:33] <__Adam__> mackk431: Do you have NoScript addon installed at all btw? [20:33] i dont have NoScript addon installed [20:34] <__Adam__> mackk431: The Javascript setting under Firefox is at edit->preferences->content->enable javascript [20:35] <__Adam__> Might be worth double checking that [20:35] <__Adam__> guess i have to go back to 8.10 then? [20:35] adam you are right it was disabled there [20:36] ok i try that page [20:36] <__Adam__> mackk431: :) If it's now enabled, you're good to go === ahmed is now known as Guest65014 [20:37] thanks adam that fixed it the page is working now [20:38] <__Adam__> mackk431: np :) [20:40] Do I need to setup guarddog??

[20:41] is it [20:42] does anyone know how setup a raid5?? [20:42] a gui would be nice [20:43] <__Adam__> mackk431: Javascript shouldn't present any issues, and from my personal experience, there's not many dangerous Java progs out there [20:43] how can i get ubunto last verison in egypt?

[20:53] <__Adam__> ActionParsnip: The actual owner of this nick just tried to untar a system backup whilst the system was running, to go back to 8.10... is that not as good as I think it is? [20:53] in my opinion its hard to hack a linux system [20:53] even if you have backdoors [20:54] the hacker has to have root rights to do great damage [20:54] and that is nearly impossible [20:54] <__Adam__> mackk431: Though it depends if you're to do damage or just peeve people off [20:54] but i say it isnt possible [20:55] impossible [20:55] __Adam__: not sure, you could always boot to livecd and do it properly which will circumvent any badness that may have happened [20:55] <__Adam__> ActionParsnip: yeah - he's trying to do that now, but his livecd isn't playing ball atm :S [20:56] so nobody here is running kubuntu in vmware? [20:56] __Adam__: hmm [20:56] braden_: no, i run it native, much faster [20:56] <__Adam__> He asked me for the command to untar a tarball, but I didn't know what for before it was too late ;( [20:57] __Adam__: oh boy [20:57] its pretty fast as a VM [20:57] is there gparted for kde??

[21:00] and windows host [21:00] braden_: we have 12 VM severs with 9 VMs on each running Citrix [21:01] do they run fast"? [21:01] braden_: admittedly the earliest 5 are running 2.5 :( [21:01] braden_: they run ok but are rental so have low SLA [21:02] ug [21:02] the newer ones are awesome [21:03] yup, I have phased out most of my old hardware [21:03] braden_: we're continually rolling stuff [21:04] same here. never a boring moment in the IT world. Someone always wants to change shit [21:05] and I always find it funny to hear how easy it is when its coming from the boss' mouth [21:05] hi [21:05] hrmof [21:05] what's the pakcage name of that kde3 drive mounter applet? [21:06] amaterasu: what did you use it for specifically? Otherwise, 'man mount' [21:07] braden_: oh we dont need that, they changed ALL the user names to have a prefix on to differentiate the admins from users, completly pointless [21:07] Hello all. Has anyone tried to install QT Creator from the repos, and if so has it come with the QT documentation? I can't seem to get it to pull up like it was when I was looking at the .9x version on Kubuntu 8.10. [21:07] ign0ramus: i need that applet. long story. [21:08] amaterasu: again, what did you use it to mount? other partitions? flash drives? [21:08] ;) but someone thought that was a really good idea right? [21:08] braden_: oh totally :( [21:09] its just 10 hours of work.....we didn't have a mile long list of things to complete already, let bump this one up the list so we can piss the IT department off === Jampiter_ is now known as Jampiter [21:09] I think they plot against us [21:10] I guess everyone is sticking with Kdevelop then? :-) [21:10] amaterasu: pysdm?

Second is: I'd like to migrate my root filesystem to a logical volume, but update-initramfs doesn't seem to pick the LV up... any hints? Thanks [23:12] kinkie do you have an acer? [23:12] Is there a way to make GTK apps respect my KDE theme settings? Firefox, GIMP, and the like are using GTK-style scrollbars/file menus instead of respecting my theme. [23:12] kaddi_: HP laptop [23:12] well I reinstalled jaunty on the laptop but now the wifi is hopeless it just quits after trying to make it connect with network manager. I wonder if there's a tutorial about setup with this app which either won't remeber your settings or won't let you change them once they're set .. a most frustrating exersise [23:13] kinkie there is a bugreport for acer concerning networkmanager: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/350352 [23:13] fuser wont return nothing. [23:13] removing the lock wont fix the problem [23:13] still saying it has a lock [23:14] kinkie i had a lot of problems with knetworkmanager, finally i chose to use the gnome-applet (start with nm-applet in shell) which works fine for me... might be worth a try? [23:14] kaddi_: the acer bugreport doesn't seem to fit, I see no Atheros modules. Trying the gnome panel [23:16] fungos: maybe this'll help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2750296#post2750296 [23:17] it'll probably kill your update manager [23:17] so make sure no more updates are running ;) === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:19] hi [23:19] BRB. rebooting to check whether it works. [23:19] is it possible to set shotcuts in Konsole for switching tabs ? [23:20] it was possible in kde3 but i can't find it in kde4 [23:20] aszdx i can switch tabs with shift+left/right on my pc FWIW [23:21] kaddi_ me too. is it possible to set it to different shortcut ? [23:21] must be :D not sure how though... i'll have a look :D [23:22] got it [23:22] !info gtk-qt-engine | Onyx [23:22] Onyx: gtk-qt-engine (source: gtk-qt-engine): theme engine using Qt 4 for GTK+ 2.x. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.1+svn20080816-0ubuntu7 (jaunty), package size 108 kB, installed size 508 kB [23:22] Onyx- that might be what you're looking for [23:22] it's called 'Next view' and 'Previous view' [23:22] don't know why it is called a 'view' [23:23] Dragnslcr: Thank you :) [23:24] kaddi_: better but still not 100%. The wireless network is accessed, but dhcp is not invoked. Weird... [23:24] I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks! [23:24] cu [23:27] i'm getting 'Could not connect to wpa_supplicant - re-trying' when i run wpa_cli [23:27] what's wrong ? [23:30] echo "base= size= type=write-combining" >| /proc/mtrr [23:30] whats my base memory ? [23:35] quassel208: run free [23:35] free is a konsole command [23:36] this is sad. Nothing works. Isn't there a way to "clean up" dpgk state? [23:38] why the hell kubuntu keep changing package manager?? :S [23:39] I hate this thing >.< [23:39] and why this new package manager wont ask root password when trying to install/update something? [23:44] hi [23:45] when I would stick in sd cards etc, kde used to show them on the desktop... this has stopped working, any ideas? (kde 3.5) [23:46] 2024840 what this 2 gb memory in hexadecimal notation? [23:56] I upgraded to jaunty, and now have silly sound effects when clicking buttons in gtk programs (like gimp, gedit, gnometris, firefox). But if I log into a gnome session that doesn't happen. How can I stop it in a kde session? [23:56] quassel208: 4 294 967 296 = 0x10000000 === RoozbehOnline is now known as Roozbeh|Away
