| daskreech | oh wait. Umm wrong command | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| noobias | k | 00:01 |
| mefisto__ | dpkg-reconfigure daskreech? | 00:02 |
| daskreech | sudo update-alternatives --config kdm | 00:02 |
| daskreech | noobias: You can press up to get it back | 00:02 |
| daskreech | noobias: also if you press tab it will autocomplete your ocmmands for you | 00:03 |
| daskreech | so you don't have to type the whole ting | 00:03 |
| noobias | ahh | 00:03 |
| noobias | no alternatives for kdm | 00:03 |
| daskreech | :-/ | 00:04 |
| daskreech | fine sudo apt-get remove gdm since it seems to want to not exist | 00:05 |
| noobias | ok | 00:05 |
| dan_l | so...............I have some n000b questions. | 00:05 |
| dan_l | Well actually maybe not. | 00:06 |
| noobias | its doing it now | 00:06 |
| dan_l | I enabled compiz as the windows manager. I'm accustomed to running 4 desktops and the famed cube. | 00:06 |
| daskreech | noobias: then try the /etc/init.d/kdm restart option again | 00:06 |
| noobias | ok | 00:06 |
| dan_l | My widget shows 4 desktops, compiz only gives me 2, so I assume there's some disconnect there that's beyond me. | 00:07 |
| === Froad|Away is now known as Froad | ||
| dan_l | I'm having a hellova time articulating this problem, so I'm hoping somebody will know what I'm talking about. | 00:07 |
| Psi-Jack | Curiousity: Does Ubuntu/Kubuntu have any console-based configuration utilities that do basically what the KDE/Gnome-based system configuration tools do? Basically trying to figure out if there's the equivalent of SuSE yast for ubuntu for configuring things even as simple as network IP addresses for the system. | 00:07 |
| daskreech | dan_l: keep talking | 00:07 |
| mefisto__ | dan_l: you don't need compiz for that. but anyway, how many desktops do you have in systemsettings > desktop ? | 00:07 |
| noobias | kdm not running (var/run/kdm.pid not found) | 00:08 |
| dan_l | Check for you right now, stand by. | 00:08 |
| daskreech | Psi-Jack: like the one cli tool ? | 00:08 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: Pretty much, yes. | 00:08 |
| daskreech | noobias: Ok great press up and change restart to start | 00:08 |
| dan_l | 4. | 00:08 |
| noobias | ok | 00:08 |
| noobias | ok | 00:08 |
| daskreech | what was the last ok indicating ? | 00:09 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: Not even really CLI either, but Console, as-in curses or what-not. yast for suse can run in console, kde, or gtk environments with automagic detection of which UI layer to use. | 00:09 |
| noobias | hold 1 sec | 00:09 |
| dan_l | Here's what I"m trying to figure out: The widget that's in my panel. Would that reflect desktops available to compiz or for kwin? Or am I a total n00b who should self murder? | 00:10 |
| noobias | daskreech: kdmonly root wants to run kmd allready running | 00:10 |
| noobias | is what it said | 00:10 |
| daskreech | Psi-Jack: TUI | 00:12 |
| daskreech | dan_l: kwin | 00:12 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: Yeah, TUI stuffs. | 00:12 |
| daskreech | noobias: KDM already running? | 00:12 |
| noobias | thats what it said | 00:13 |
| mefisto__ | dan_l: kwin does the cube and other compiz-type effects | 00:13 |
| dan_l | Ok. So perhaps I should try to make do with just kwin and ignore compiz? | 00:13 |
| daskreech | noobias: change start to stop | 00:13 |
| noobias | done | 00:13 |
| dan_l | Yeah. I'm jujst so gnome adjusted. But I'll give it a shot. | 00:13 |
| dan_l | Ok one more question and I'll STFU | 00:13 |
| dan_l | Can anybody reccomend a good keystroke launcher? Like Launchy, gnomedo, whatever? | 00:14 |
| mefisto__ | dan_l: try alt-F2 is that the kind of thing you mean? | 00:14 |
| dan_l | wow. | 00:15 |
| dan_l | Can I change that hotkey? | 00:15 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: So, is there any TUI configuration tools for *buntu? | 00:15 |
| mefisto__ | dan_l: yes | 00:16 |
| daskreech | Psi-Jack: Not a one to rule then all | 00:16 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: Well, blasted. Heh. | 00:16 |
| mefisto__ | dan_l: systemsettings > keyboard & mouse | 00:16 |
| daskreech | Ubuntu's focus is to kill command line | 00:16 |
| daskreech | noobias: Start it again | 00:16 |
| olujicz | I switched to quassel few day ago and I don't know how to remove chanel from buffer list when leaving some chanel :( | 00:16 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: Well, a one rule them all, would do almost effectively, that. Which is why I love yast so much. It just plain works as it's intended. | 00:17 |
| dan_l | sweeeet. | 00:17 |
| daskreech | Psi-Jack: Yes but Ubuntu doesn't do Command line stuff unless it will kill them not to | 00:17 |
| dan_l | so far so good. | 00:17 |
| daskreech | Linux for humans and all that | 00:17 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: You're mixing TUI with CLI again, though. | 00:18 |
| noobias | same thing | 00:19 |
| noobias | kdmonly wants to start kdm allready running | 00:20 |
| noobias | i dont know | 00:20 |
| daskreech | It says kdmonly ? | 00:20 |
| mefisto__ | dan_l: just curious, what was the key shortcut you changed it to? | 00:20 |
| daskreech | alt+Spacebar ? | 00:20 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: Just curiousity. Have you, personally, ever seen suse's yast in the recent days, from opensuse 11.0 or newer? | 00:21 |
| daskreech | Yes | 00:21 |
| daskreech | noobias: try startx | 00:21 |
| dan_l | alt+space | 00:21 |
| dan_l | or win+space | 00:21 |
| daskreech | Gah | 00:21 |
| dan_l | sorry, baby was yelling at me. | 00:21 |
| Psi-Jack | Then you know, yast itself, is a full all around configuration tool that can even check for package updates and install them, setup NFS servers and clients, setup authentication to be by local, NIS+, LDAP, etc.. All in one purely simple TUI interface, as well as GUI interface? | 00:22 |
| daskreech | noobias: try startx | 00:22 |
| noobias | k | 00:22 |
| abyss_ | guys how can i check my kernel version? | 00:22 |
| noobias | fatal server error no screen found | 00:23 |
| daskreech | uname | 00:23 |
| daskreech | noobias: oooer :) | 00:23 |
| dan_l | So far I'm kinda digging on this kde thing. Probably the most important thing I have to figure out though is whether or not I can move a window to another desktop without a mouse. I hate the mouse. | 00:23 |
| daskreech | can you install pastebinit ? | 00:23 |
| daskreech | sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 00:23 |
| noobias | can i install pastebinit? | 00:23 |
| abyss_ | uname thats it cheers | 00:23 |
| noobias | yes | 00:23 |
| noobias | 1 sec | 00:23 |
| daskreech | dan_l: Alt+F3 _> D -> desktop# | 00:24 |
| dan_l | Alright, I'm going to disable compiz go back to kwin. | 00:24 |
| daskreech | dan_l: advantage? You can throw windows all over the place instantly | 00:24 |
| dan_l | Now I"m not going to become one of you k people. | 00:24 |
| daskreech | disadvantage is that you don't follow the window | 00:24 |
| daskreech | dan_l: cube in the next KDE release :) | 00:25 |
| noobias | im getting invalid operating pastebinit | 00:25 |
| daskreech | for sudo apt-get install ? | 00:25 |
| hagabaka | has anyone tried arora? | 00:25 |
| daskreech | !info pastebinit | 00:25 |
| ubottu | pastebinit (source: pastebinit): command-line pastebin client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11.2-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 21 kB, installed size 344 kB | 00:25 |
| mefisto__ | daskreech: next release? I have the cube now | 00:25 |
| noobias | sry | 00:25 |
| daskreech | Oh wait yeah I forgot Jackalope is out | 00:25 |
| noobias | i fixed it | 00:25 |
| drbobb | hagabaka: yes | 00:26 |
| noobias | daskreech: its done | 00:26 |
| daskreech | noobias: ok type pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:26 |
| mefisto__ | hagabaka: thankyou. I'm always forgetting the name of it. and yes I've tried it | 00:26 |
| daskreech | Give us the URL | 00:26 |
| noobias | ok | 00:26 |
| dan_l | Crap. Where do I select the windows manager again? | 00:27 |
| noobias | do i type it here? | 00:27 |
| daskreech | yes | 00:28 |
| noobias | ok | 00:28 |
| daskreech | dan_l: Default applications | 00:28 |
| noobias | pastebinit /etc/x11/xorg.conf | 00:28 |
| daskreech | or just type kwin --replace | 00:28 |
| daskreech | noobias: ha ha Sorry you type that in the terminal it will give you a URL | 00:28 |
| noobias | lol | 00:28 |
| daskreech | you type the URL here | 00:28 |
| dan_l | Wow I suck. | 00:28 |
| dan_l | Thanks folks. | 00:28 |
| noobias | unable to read from | 00:28 |
| daskreech | dan_l: Yet you rock so much | 00:28 |
| hagabaka | i can finally use plugins in it now that i have qt 4.5, but arora has the same problem as konqueror, pages like youtube and nicovideo usually require you to reload a few times before the plugin loads :/ | 00:29 |
| daskreech | noobias: BigX for X11 | 00:29 |
| noobias | ok | 00:29 |
| noobias | pastebin.com/ff405455 | 00:30 |
| drbobb | hagabaka: an even more serious problem is no adblock ;-/ | 00:31 |
| daskreech | noobias: ok lets see if the driver is the culprit. type sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:31 |
| noobias | ok | 00:32 |
| daskreech | and change Driver "nvidia" to Driver "nv" | 00:32 |
| daskreech | press Ctrl+X to exit | 00:32 |
| dwidmann | arora is pretty basic for now, but all things considered it's moving fast | 00:32 |
| daskreech | ^X is Ctrl+X btw | 00:32 |
| dan_l | Ok. I set the invert function to meta+n, applied the change. Hit win+n, nothing happened. | 00:33 |
| noobias | nvidia to nv @ the bottom of the text? | 00:33 |
| daskreech | noobias: Right | 00:33 |
| noobias | save as same file name? | 00:34 |
| daskreech | noobias: Oh another little trick You can use alt+<- or alt+-> to jump between terminals beside each other | 00:34 |
| daskreech | noobias: Yes | 00:34 |
| noobias | ok | 00:35 |
| noobias | done | 00:35 |
| smeg0l | hmm i'm confused | 00:35 |
| daskreech | ok press up to get back the KDM start and try start it | 00:35 |
| daskreech | smeg0l: Me too | 00:35 |
| smeg0l | heh | 00:36 |
| daskreech | what's confusing you ? | 00:36 |
| hagabaka | drbobb: that hasn't bothered me much, and arora usually loads pages faster than konqueror and without javascript problems | 00:36 |
| smeg0l | can't get kdesudo to work or any passwd in gui :-/ | 00:36 |
| noobias | sorry what is the command i need to use again? | 00:36 |
| daskreech | noobias: press ^R and type restart | 00:37 |
| daskreech | you should get sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 00:37 |
| drbobb | hagabaka: you should really try browsing the web using a good adblocker, it's a whole new experience, and you'll never want to go back ;-) | 00:38 |
| noobias | is that whati need to run the restart? | 00:38 |
| noobias | it said it started | 00:39 |
| daskreech | really? | 00:39 |
| daskreech | hmm | 00:39 |
| daskreech | Did you get a login? | 00:39 |
| noobias | no | 00:39 |
| mefisto__ | maybe switch to ctrl-alt-F7 ? | 00:39 |
| daskreech | ok press alt+Ctrl+F7 and see what's there | 00:40 |
| noobias | black screen blinking | 00:40 |
| raylu | drbobb: but then you lose your ad-blindness | 00:40 |
| daskreech | hmm | 00:40 |
| smeg0l | got to have more caffeine | 00:40 |
| daskreech | ok | 00:40 |
| drbobb | raylu: maybe, but i'd rather protect my sanity | 00:41 |
| daskreech | noobias: still have the nvidia .run file ? | 00:41 |
| raylu | drbobb: then don't get an ad-blocker. when you use another person's machine, you'll go insane because of the ads | 00:41 |
| mefisto__ | ad-blindness? how do you get that? | 00:41 |
| noobias | i guess i downloaded it to my desktop | 00:41 |
| raylu | drbobb: though i use an ad-blocker myself. just pointing out that there's a reason not to use one | 00:41 |
| daskreech | noobias: ls ~/Desktop | 00:42 |
| noobias | k | 00:42 |
| raylu | mefisto__: by seeing ads and ignoring them (like most people do) | 00:42 |
| daskreech | See if it's there | 00:42 |
| noobias | yes i still have it | 00:42 |
| daskreech | ok cd ~/Desktop | 00:42 |
| drbobb | raylu: well you *believe* you're ignoring them | 00:42 |
| dan_l | hmmmmm. I don't see a krunner hotkey under keyboard and mouse. | 00:42 |
| mefisto__ | raylu: that doesn't work for me. must be the asperger's | 00:42 |
| raylu | drbobb: no, i believe that i pay more attention to them on friend's machines than i did before i had adblock | 00:43 |
| drbobb | unfortunately, on a subliminal level they're still undermining your sanity | 00:43 |
| divinus | drbobb: you can use something like privoxy with arora to get adblocking | 00:43 |
| daskreech | chmod u+x *.run | 00:43 |
| raylu | daskreech: sh [file].run should work too | 00:44 |
| drbobb | divinus: good point i guess | 00:44 |
| k4_k4 | hi i got a question - i am on ubuntu , and kdeplasma-addons asks me to install : * OpenGL <http://mesa3d.sourceforge.net> | 00:44 |
| k4_k4 | what package is this ? if i try to install mesa-dev* it want to remove nvidia-glx-180-dev --- so what to do ? | 00:44 |
| noobias | where is the desktop folder located? | 00:44 |
| daskreech | noobias: under ~ | 00:45 |
| dan_l | Aha! I am not an idiot. http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1043208.html | 00:45 |
| daskreech | ~ is a shortcut for your Home directory | 00:45 |
| noobias | i did it and it didnt work | 00:45 |
| daskreech | raylu: Yeah I figured | 00:45 |
| drbobb | heck what could the reason be that copying to my usb flash mem has become so slooooow | 00:45 |
| daskreech | noobias: Capital D ? | 00:45 |
| noobias | no... ill learn i promise | 00:45 |
| noobias | ok | 00:46 |
| noobias | im there | 00:46 |
| noobias | now do i run the file? | 00:46 |
| ActionParsnip | noobias: ./<file name> | 00:46 |
| dan_l | Ok folks, I'll leave you alone for now. I"m sure I'll be back. Thanks much for your help. Sorry to be n00btarded. | 00:46 |
| dan_l | I gotsa take my daughter out for ice cream. | 00:46 |
| dan_l | Mom will be unhappy, but I'm the dad, that's why. | 00:47 |
| dan_l | adios folks | 00:47 |
| daskreech | noobias: sh *.run | 00:47 |
| noobias | ... | 00:48 |
| noobias | confused | 00:48 |
| noobias | says cant open | 00:48 |
| raylu | noobias: the exact error would be helpful | 00:49 |
| noobias | the error says it cant open | 00:49 |
| noobias | and thats it | 00:50 |
| daskreech | noobias: ok try chmod u+x *.run | 00:50 |
| drbobb | at best 200kB/s writing to flash must mean something is wrong | 00:50 |
| raylu | noobias: i meant copy/paste it | 00:51 |
| drbobb | and much of the time it just stalls | 00:51 |
| noobias | lol no gui friend | 00:51 |
| noobias | thats what im trying to fix | 00:51 |
| raylu | drbobb: i experienced something similar once | 00:52 |
| drbobb | raylu: should I expect the stick to fail soon? | 00:52 |
| daskreech | noobias: did the chmod ? | 00:52 |
| noobias | it said no such file | 00:52 |
| * Psi-Jack laughs. | 00:52 | |
| Psi-Jack | You should be running these commands WHERE the actual .run file is... | 00:53 |
| daskreech | noobias: ls *.run | 00:53 |
| raylu | drbobb: no | 00:53 |
| raylu | drbobb: i eventually just burned it to a dvd (it was a vista installation) | 00:53 |
| === sean is now known as seanw__ | ||
| drbobb | well my burner is broken :( | 00:54 |
| seanw__ | Does anyone know how to remove the KDE windows effects ( transparent stuff when moving window etc ) | 00:54 |
| daskreech | seanw__: alt+F3 -> window properties -> desktop effects -> turn off | 00:54 |
| raylu | drbobb: where are you trying to transfer this file to? | 00:54 |
| daskreech | noobias: ls *.run | 00:55 |
| noobias | i did | 00:55 |
| seanw__ | daskreech: thanks much | 00:55 |
| daskreech | you can see the .run file? | 00:55 |
| drbobb | i want to take it to a place where i have a working dvd writer | 00:56 |
| Psi-Jack | Ugh. Why oh WHY does KDE's copy dialog use MiB, instead of MB? | 00:57 |
| noobias | i see the run file | 00:58 |
| noobias | yes | 00:58 |
| noobias | but when i chmod it dosent work | 00:58 |
| nameiner | Hi, I just installed Kubuntu 9.04 64bit on my hp dv4-1120 laptop and I have a sound problem. It hangs on the startup sound. It sounds like it repeats the first half second all the time. And I can't have any other sounds. Any ideas? | 00:59 |
| daskreech | what did you type for chmod ? | 00:59 |
| noobias | chmod u+x <filename.run_ | 01:00 |
| drbobb | i suppose that if it were h/w trouble , i'd be seeing something in `dmesg' | 01:00 |
| daskreech | noobias: did you ahve < in it? | 01:00 |
| noobias | no | 01:00 |
| daskreech | noobias: tab completed the file name ? | 01:01 |
| lemon | hello,moring | 01:02 |
| daskreech | noobias: Woah wait it has .run_ ? | 01:03 |
| daskreech | With the underscore? | 01:04 |
| noobias | no no underscore that was typo | 01:04 |
| daskreech | ok | 01:04 |
| daskreech | try chmod u+x and then tab complete the name | 01:05 |
| daskreech | hi Mamarok | 01:05 |
| Mamarok | hi daskreech :) | 01:06 |
| drbobb | hey this has become ridiculously slow. might there be some problem with the kioslave, or what? | 01:08 |
| daskreech | Hi lemon_ | 01:08 |
| daskreech | noobias: how's that going? | 01:09 |
| noobias | iy tsn | 01:09 |
| noobias | sry | 01:09 |
| lemon_ | Hi daskreech | 01:09 |
| noobias | it ran but it said fatal server error | 01:09 |
| * Psi-Jack blinks. | 01:09 | |
| Psi-Jack | chmod != server. | 01:09 |
| noobias | no screens file | 01:09 |
| Psi-Jack | Oh. | 01:09 |
| Psi-Jack | Run it with --help so you can figure out how to use it without X. | 01:10 |
| noobias | ^no screens found | 01:10 |
| daskreech | noobias: ok lost now :) you got the .run file torun ? | 01:10 |
| noobias | brb | 01:10 |
| Psi-Jack | daskreech: Yeah, running it by itself will try to use X, and since X isn't running, or at least in the shell he's using presently, it will die. | 01:10 |
| daskreech | Psi-Jack: near as I recall the nvidia driver install files required you to killX | 01:11 |
| daskreech | Course they could have moved on :) | 01:11 |
| Psi-Jack | Hmmm, Not sure about the nvidia drivers. I've done the ATI ones, but not the nvidia ones yet. | 01:15 |
| drbobb | hmm rsync seems to write a little faster | 01:17 |
| drbobb | still writing to flash at 250kB/s is unusually slow, isn't it | 01:18 |

| drbobb | goodnite | 01:20 |
| inanimate | So does the new network management plasmoid save your WEP/WPA passwords? | 01:20 |
| nameiner | inanimate: I think mine doesn't, at least not when I restarted the first time. | 01:21 |
| inanimate | OK... That blows... | 01:22 |
| seanw__ | wicd ftw | 01:23 |
| inanimate | Why would something that doesn't even save your wireless passwords be shipped as the default for 9.04? | 01:23 |
| seanw__ | no clue, i also found that very odd that they would release something halfway stable | 01:23 |
| inanimate | KNM is painful, yes, but function over form... | 01:23 |
| inanimate | Well it's ironic given that for 8.10 they released the beta version of KNM and NM... | 01:24 |
| inanimate | Or packaged, rather. | 01:24 |
| Psi-Jack | Heh, oh hell, NM itself IS beta. Not even a 1.0 release. | 01:25 |
| inanimate | seanw__: No Qt version of wicd? | 01:25 |
| seanw__ | inanimate: sorry what's that mean? im new :) | 01:25 |
| seanw__ | whats QT | 01:26 |
| inanimate | The GUI toolkit that KDE uses. | 01:26 |
| inanimate | As oppose to GTK, which Gnome uses. | 01:26 |
| seanw__ | ah | 01:26 |
| Psi-Jack | GTK+ actually. | 01:26 |
| seanw__ | well then yes it has a GUI | 01:26 |
| nameiner | inanimate: a lot of people also complain about static IP addresses not working | 01:26 |
| inanimate | I was going to say "GTK+", but then I thought "I may be wrong, and who really cares?" Oh how wrong I was =). | 01:26 |
| * Psi-Jack grins evilly. | 01:27 | |
| inanimate | nameiner: Static IP doesn't work with NM? | 01:27 |
| Psi-Jack | inanimate: Not really well, no. | 01:27 |
| inanimate | Hmm... Glad I | 01:27 |
| inanimate | 've never tried. | 01:28 |
| nameiner | inanimate: yup, lot of complaining about that in the kubuntu mailing list | 01:28 |
| Psi-Jack | It /works/, but if you run it with any kind of services needing an IP, it will often times fail them. | 01:28 |
| inanimate | So far my biggest deal with NM in general is the fact that I only get a DHCP lease half the time. | 01:28 |
| Psi-Jack | Like I said earlier. NM in itself, is still beta all the way. | 01:29 |
| inanimate | Well, save manually using wpasupplicant, are there any other reasonable Qt (or even better, KDE) NM frontends? | 01:29 |
| mefisto__ | has anyone installed KDE3 in jaunty alongside the default kde4? | 01:32 |

| nameiner | I have sound problems on my laptop (hp dv4-1120) with 9.04 64bit installed | 01:34 |
| nameiner | any ideas | 01:34 |
| Psi-Jack | nameiner: Depends. What KIND of sound problems? | 01:34 |
| seanw__ | i hear 9.04 is extremly buggy. | 01:34 |
| nameiner | Psi-Jack: it sounds like it repeats the first half second of the startup sound forever | 01:35 |
| kuaera | 9.04 has been pretty buggy for me so far. | 01:35 |
| seanw__ | kuaera: that's why im sticking with 8.10 | 01:36 |
| seanw__ | :P | 01:36 |
| kamlurker | Has anyone have any problems with the 9.04 upgrade killing KDE? | 01:36 |
| kuaera | Lots of KDE4 issues, especially with Samba support magically screwing itself up [If I manually put in the path in Dolphin, it works fine] | 01:36 |
| Daskreech | mefisto__: No I haven't. Is there a second part to the question? | 01:36 |
| kuaera | My file picker dialogs still always start by sorting by name descending, ignoring my settings [really frustrating if you do a lot of work with files] | 01:36 |
| mefisto__ | Daskreech: second part would be: how did it go? any problems? does kde4 and kde3 get along? | 01:37 |
| Psi-Jack | Bleh, how do you break out of a dead ssh session? | 01:39 |

| nameiner | Psi-Jack: any ideas about the sound? | 01:41 |
| Psi-Jack | nameiner: No, but I'll make a guess it's related to PulseAudio | 01:41 |
| fjallagyldir | kamlurker, mount it | 01:42 |
| nameiner | Psi-Jack: as far as I know, Pulseaudio is not used in Kubuntu, but I could be wrong | 01:42 |

| kamlurker | fjallagyldir: touch: cannot touch `/media/disk/testfile': Permission denied -- It seems that the reason is that the owner and group are "500" | 01:59 |
| fjallagyldir | no i dont think so, u have hit the connect button, havent u? | 01:59 |

| raylu | tomsdale_: i don't think so... | 02:23 |
| tomsdale_ | let me restart kdm and well know - brb | 02:24 |
| tomsdale | raylu: it worked - I'm back in KDE. I think installing the sudo aptitude install gnome-control-center | 02:28 |
| tomsdale | uups - sorry. Don't do that if your are on KDE. | 02:28 |
| tomsdale | anyway - after installing the control center it overrides your preference and if you have automated logon enabled it sends you straight into a gnome session. | 02:29 |
| raylu | then shouldn't turning off automated logon fix it? | 02:29 |

| jimmy51_home | how do you restart X from the kybd in 9.04? | 02:37 |
| jimmy51_home | it used to be CTRL ALT BKSP | 02:37 |
| VisTasTiC | xorg disabled ctrl alt bksp. you have to edit /etc/xorg.conf to enable it | 02:38 |
| VisTasTiC | google to find out what you have to type in | 02:39 |
| jimmy51_home | VisTasTiC: is there a replacement combo? | 02:39 |
| Pici | !dontzap | jimmy51_home | 02:39 |
| ubottu | jimmy51_home: 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 » | 02:39 |
| VisTasTiC | not that i know of | 02:39 |
| jimmy51_home | thanks | 02:39 |
| jimmy51_home | why did they get rid of that? it was very useful | 02:39 |
| raylu | that seems like an excessive way of re-enabling ctrl-alt-bksp | 02:39 |
| raylu | it was useful but it was also a nice way to lose your work | 02:39 |
| jimmy51_home | hmmm..... | 02:39 |
| jimmy51_home | maybe a "are you sure you want to restart X" prompt would be due? | 02:40 |
| jimmy51_home | i dunno | 02:40 |
| jimmy51_home | thanks for the tip.... i'm going to try it in 3...2...1... | 02:40 |

| ubottu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 02:45 |
| dust | shrug | 02:46 |
| dust | i've been seeking this for hours with no result | 02:46 |
| raylu | jimmy51_home: i'm not sure. there is a "desktop effects" setting which you can turn on. you can also use the ccsm or similar to fine-tune compiz. | 02:46 |
| Dragnslcr | jimmy51_home- not all of the same effects are in kwin, but it does do compositing on its own | 02:46 |
| jeiworth_ | jimmy51_home: afaik kde 4 has its own implementation of desktop effects, i am not sure your existing compiz config will work | 02:47 |
| Onyx | Does anyone know of a way to put amarok 1 back on instead of amarok 2? I'm definitely not a fan | 02:52 |

| ubottu | ubuntu: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:17 |

| noobiasrex | also after updating to 9.04 my sound dosent work anymore | 05:02 |
| noobiasrex | im stumped | 05:02 |
| mefisto__ | what's the command to start the nvidia config thingie? just put "kdesudo" before that | 05:02 |
| lekremyelsew | does anyone know how to get the old amarok back in 9.04? | 05:03 |
| noobiasrex | i have no idea what the command line is | 05:03 |
| denton_ | all hardware problems require specific values to be configured in a range of files... it takes time :( | 05:03 |
| mefisto__ | noobiasrex: it's in the menu? | 05:03 |
| noobiasrex | im used to an os listenening to me when i tell it to save something | 05:03 |
| robin0800 | noobiasrex: Alt F2 | 05:03 |
| noobiasrex | i mean i clicked system_administration_nvidia x server settings | 05:04 |
| noobiasrex | it finds my moniter | 05:04 |
| noobiasrex | i clicked on seperate x screen | 05:04 |
| noobiasrex | and it says i must save the file | 05:04 |
| denton_ | I wonder where the shared directory for VMware is , and how to open it in linux | 05:04 |
| noobiasrex | when i try to save the fil | 05:05 |
| noobiasrex | file it tells me it cant delete the old backup | 05:05 |
| lekremyelsew | anyone? | 05:05 |
| mefisto__ | noobiasrex: you need root privileges to edit that file | 05:05 |
| noobiasrex | and if i cant log in to root how do i do it? | 05:06 |
| noobiasrex | i pressed alt f2 | 05:06 |
| robin0800 | noobiasrex: You add sudo or kdesudo to the command | 05:06 |
| noobiasrex | what command? | 05:06 |
| noobiasrex | thers no command all im doing is clicking save file | 05:07 |
| mefisto__ | noobiasrex: open the menu editor (kmenuedit) and find it in there to find out what the command is | 05:07 |
| denton_ | noobiasrex: ill help you out | 05:07 |
| denton_ | noobiasrex: hmm. | 05:08 |
| noobiasrex | i found the command | 05:08 |
| denton_ | noobiasrex: youll need to go to recovery and give your user root editing capablities | 05:08 |
| robin0800 | noobiasrex: You need to relaunch your program with root priviledges so it can save and dellete files | 05:08 |
| denton_ | yeah that | 05:09 |
| mefisto__ | noobiasrex: it's probably something like nvidia-config (I don't know because I've never used nvidia in linux) | 05:09 |
| denton_ | so let me get this straight | 05:09 |
| Daskreech | Hi noobiasrex | 05:09 |
| denton_ | theres no way to drag a window into another desktop on 1 monitor.. | 05:10 |
| noobiasrex | hi daskreech | 05:10 |
| Daskreech | !twinview | 05:10 |
| ubottu | twinview is a feature provided by nvidia cards, which can be configured with nvidia-settings | 05:10 |
| robin0800 | noobiasrex: Just put kdesudo in front of it | 05:10 |
| Daskreech | !dualhead | 05:10 |
| ubottu | Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama | 05:10 |
| mefisto__ | noobiasrex: so do this: kdesudo <whatever the nvidia command is> | 05:10 |
| Daskreech | !xinerama | 05:10 |
| ubottu | xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead | 05:10 |
| denton_ | hmmm? was that twin view in response to my question | 05:10 |
| denton_ | Deskreech: thank you | 05:10 |
| denton_ | Ill be sure to get that | 05:11 |
| denton_ | and im going to make a text file for helpfull programs, and commands i hear on here | 05:11 |
| xeff | hello all | 05:11 |
| xeff | Wonder if anyone could help out... | 05:12 |

| denton_ | xeff: ask and you never know | 05:13 |
| denton_ | :) | 05:13 |
| noobiasrex | ok so from what ive gathered the command should look like this right | 05:13 |
| robin0800 | !ask > xeff | 05:13 |
| ubottu | xeff, please see my private message | 05:13 |
| noobiasrex | kdesudo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings | 05:13 |
| robin0800 | noobiasrex: Yes | 05:14 |
| noobiasrex | i cant thank you guys enough | 05:14 |
| noobiasrex | i gotta restart x | 05:14 |
| noobiasrex | brb | 05:14 |
| noobiasrex | next issue is not having any sound | 05:15 |
| xeff | I am on jaunty jackalope and the network manager widget doesnt seem to work properly | 05:15 |
| robin0800 | xeff: Correct# | 05:15 |
| xeff | Any idea why? | 05:15 |
| xeff | bugs? | 05:16 |
| medjr | how can i set the windows key to show the start menu ? | 05:16 |
| medjr | windows key also called super key | 05:16 |
| medjr | :/ | 05:16 |
| robin0800 | noobiasrex: Yes the one you set up during install | 05:17 |
| Xain | Can someone tell me what is teh best distro i could ever use with a good compatibility with Intel chipset's? | 05:18 |
| === lazy is now known as noobias | ||
| nsaw | hi | 05:18 |
| noobias | ok well that worked | 05:19 |
| medjr | any answers please ? | 05:19 |
| noobias | is there a way to give my useraccount those controls without having to do all the cmdline stuff? | 05:19 |
| nsaw | does anyone know if it is possible to install knoppix to a 8gb usb stick in kubuntu? | 05:19 |
| robin0800 | medjr: System seyttings Keyboard andmouse | 05:20 |
| robin0800 | noobias: what controls? | 05:21 |
| mefisto__ | noobias: you could edit that item in the menu editor to run as a different user, and enter the user "root". that should pop up a window asking for your password whenever you run it. (that's what it normally should do anyway if it's changing system settings) | 05:22 |
| medjr | robin0800 i went there but i could not find where to configure it | 05:22 |
| denton_ | so is there a way to get a bunch of virtual desktop like Mac Os? :O | 05:23 |
| mefisto__ | denton_: should already have them | 05:25 |
| kris | Hi. Trying to get my sound cards to work following an upgrade to Jaunty. Here they are: Card 0 : HDA ATI SB at 0xd2500000 irq 16, and Card 1 : HDA ATI HDMI at 0xd2410000 irq 19. | 05:27 |
| Daskreech | denton_: They took that from UNIX so hopefully yes :) | 05:28 |
| Daskreech | !sound | 05:28 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 05:28 |
| kris | Daskreech: Thanks. | 05:29 |
| kris | Didn't realize that 4.2 was still using ARTS ... | 05:29 |
| Daskreech | It can | 05:30 |
| girevikmoto | linux stopped recognizing my usb hard drive | 05:31 |
| kris | Daskreech: Ok. The 4.2 interface is entirely different... | 05:31 |
| kris | I think ubottu needs his brain updated ... | 05:32 |
| kris | Daskreech: I thought that 4.2 used phonon ... | 05:33 |
| kris | Also, searching packages.ubuntu.com for "arts" doesn't return any relevant hits ... | 05:33 |
| denton_ | so does i386 mean windows 32 bit | 05:35 |
| kris | No. i386 is a processor. | 05:37 |
| girevikmoto | i386 means means the processor architecture is a descendent of intel 386 | 05:37 |
| kris | It can run Windows 32 bit. Or any other 32 bit OS. | 05:37 |
| girevikmoto | as opposed to PPC (power pc) and x86_64 | 05:37 |
| thismamacooks200 | girevikmoto: don't forget m68k. Linux was made for m68k | 05:38 |
| girevikmoto | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Microprocessors <- there have been many processor architectures over the years | 05:41 |
| eddyb | hi | 05:46 |
| girevikmoto | so... i dont suppose anyone knows a fix to my usb harddrive problem? | 05:47 |
| eddyb | is there any way(i mean some factory repos and stuff) to get you kde4 updated with the last svn version? | 05:47 |
| girevikmoto | a few days ago my external harddrive stopped being detected | 05:47 |
| girevikmoto | i plug it in, and it never shows up | 05:47 |
| girevikmoto | lsusb shows its existence though | 05:47 |
| girevikmoto | dmesg shows a bunch of i/o errors | 05:49 |
| girevikmoto | but it works fine on a friends windows machine | 05:49 |
| girevikmoto | any ideas? | 05:50 |
| Daskreech | kris: Correct and Phonon can use whatever so it can use it if you like | 05:51 |
| denton_ | heres a question youve heard a thousand times | 05:56 |
| denton_ | by now someone should have this on speed dial :P | 05:56 |
| denton_ | how do get root privs on a standard account to install software | 05:57 |
| Daskreech | *beeppebeepboopboop* | 05:57 |
| denton_ | :P | 05:57 |
| Daskreech | put sudo before the command you are using to install | 05:57 |
| === administrator___ is now known as mds | ||
| denton_ | okay i thought so | 05:58 |
| denton_ | so its just the command that doesnt get recognized | 05:58 |
| denton_ | weird.. i gotta get it working in VMware on windows to install shared directories | 05:58 |
| kris | Daskreech: Ok. But how do I install arts? | 05:58 |
| === mds is now known as mayfields | ||
| kris | !arts | 05:59 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about arts | 05:59 |
| eddyb | !kde4 | 05:59 |
| ubottu | KDE 4.2 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. Packages can be found at http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2.2 - Support in #kubuntu | 05:59 |
| eddyb | !kde4.2 | 06:00 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about kde4.2 | 06:00 |
| denton_ | Daskreech: actually i need to do this install in X heh | 06:00 |
| Daskreech | denton_: kdesudo | 06:00 |
| denton_ | hm .. thank you | 06:00 |
| aaron | Hi, I just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 and my network manager is gone... I lost all of my wep keys and had to plug into a wall to get network | 06:02 |
| aaron | It's not even there | 06:02 |
| === word_ is now known as word | ||
| aaron | any suggestions on how to get wifi working again? (that grey globe thing worked well in 8.10) | 06:03 |
| denton_ | Daskreech: can I add that kdesudo to a RPM file? | 06:04 |
| Daskreech | denton_: WOah what? | 06:04 |
| denton_ | Daskreech: need to install rpm file (in root) i believe | 06:04 |
| denton_ | need to do it by double clicking preferably | 06:05 |
| Daskreech | denton_: Which RPM ? | 06:05 |
| denton_ | actually its a tool set for VMware | 06:05 |
| denton_ | so this is where it gets confusing for me.. | 06:05 |
| aaron | denton_: did you want to install an rpm??? there are plenty of tools to convert rpm to deb | 06:05 |
| Daskreech | Where did you grab it from? | 06:05 |
| aaron | Plz help, my system is crypled... | 06:06 |
| denton_ | it came with VMware (windowsXP) they designed a toolset for linux | 06:06 |
| === aaron is now known as MrDarkUser | ||
| denton_ | its also in tar.gz form but does not recognize the command | 06:07 |
| Daskreech | MrDarkUser: Crippled? | 06:07 |
| Daskreech | denton_: Which command? | 06:07 |
| MrDarkUser | Daskreech: yes, I figured that misspelling would catch somebodies attention.. also it appears that my new IRC client doesn't have spell checking to my dismay | 06:08 |
| MrDarkUser | Daskreech: yes, the wifi is down | 06:08 |
| MrDarkUser | Daskreech: it appears to just be the dissapearance of the network manager that was in 8.10.. that was ugly and missnamed but worked reliably.. and now there is nothing to replace it. | 06:09 |
| Daskreech | MrDarkUser: Did you try the plasmoid? | 06:10 |
| Idespnnr | MrDarkUser: what about Wicd as a network manager | 06:11 |
| Idespnnr | worked better for me in 9.04 than the default | 06:11 |
| Daskreech | If the plasmoid doesn't work try wicd | 06:11 |
| MrDarkUser | I got my wep key so If I can figure out where to use the configuration file, I should be able to use it... but it's gone.... | 06:11 |
| MrDarkUser | Daskreech: that plasmoid just showed what was connected, nothing to change, Trying Wicd | 06:11 |
| Idespnnr | i could NOT hidden SSID with the built in wifi manager in kubuntu 9.04, I used wicd and never had much issue | 06:12 |
| MrDarkUser | Note, there are a whole bunch of really really cool settings under the System Settings network section.. but nothing to actually connect to a network :) | 06:13 |
| MrDarkUser | Idespnnr: well, wicd looks promissing, except it's redarded and telling me that encryption needs to be enabled... witch is a big DUH, just ask me for the key already | 06:15 |
| MrDarkUser | and I crashed it just by clicking the button a few times | 06:15 |
| Idespnnr | ouch... dunno what your alernatives are then | 06:16 |
| Idespnnr | unless you like bash... | 06:16 |
| cspack | you just have to expand the ssid name and click advanced settings before you try and connect | 06:16 |
| Idespnnr | ah yea... it would be a 1 time setup thing for the initial connect | 06:17 |
| Idespnnr | then wicd should do the rest automaticaly from then on | 06:17 |
| digdeep | hi, where can i find libgailutil.so.18 | 06:19 |
| Daskreech | !find libgailutil.so.18 | 06:19 |
| ubottu | File libgailutil.so.18 found in ia32-libs, libgail-dbg, libgail18 | 06:19 |
| Daskreech | There you go | 06:19 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: thanks much, | 06:21 |
| Idespnnr | aaron: you had trouble with the builtin plasmoid wifi manager i take it? | 06:22 |
| denton_ | Excellent. | 06:22 |
| digdeep | Daskreech: great | 06:23 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: There was none when the computer turned on | 06:23 |
| denton_ | awesome.. vmware tools installed successfully | 06:23 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: there was last time I saw it in 8.10 | 06:23 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: and I had seen it in the search menu in 8.10, but it wasn't there in 9.04 right after the upgrade... | 06:24 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: When I typed other stuff in, I got a program that showed what was connected, but no way to manage it, when I went to system settings, there were ways to define connections, and a hidden way to search for networks, and no way to say "connect" | 06:25 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: (the plasmoid was the one that only said what was conencted) | 06:26 |
| Idespnnr | were you really connected? | 06:26 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: no, not with wifi | 06:26 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: I had to find a network jack to plug in .. I spent 1/2 hour poking about looking for anything | 06:27 |
| === Drachenblut is now known as Lord_Drachenblut | ||
| denton_ | there we go.. man that did something | 06:28 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: Also under system settings, I was able to type in connections, but then it kept asking me for my kdewallet, which was needless, it wouldn't let me do anything without kdewallet, so I had to poke about with wallet manager, delete one, then go back, and it appears that the network manager program | 06:28 |
| denton_ | i was not able to add fade or slide windows effects until now :P | 06:29 |
| denton_ | the transparent k bar is nice too | 06:29 |
| aaron | Idespnnr: anyway, I'm not trying to rant, I'll research more now that I'm online, it's just that anybody who depends on wifi can't jump from 8.10 to 9.04 at this time | 06:29 |
| denton_ | im goin to log out and make sure changes are saved | 06:30 |
| denton_ | this took me a few hours to achieve, lol | 06:30 |
| Idespnnr | aaron: if you move to wicd you should be ok | 06:30 |
| Idespnnr | remove and uninstall the plasmoid and replace with wicd via add/remove programs | 06:31 |
| === denton is now known as Denton | ||
| raylu | aaron: i did and wifi works fine | 06:43 |
| aaron | raylu: I'm sure it works for most or it wouldn't have been released. could I get a screen shot of what the network manager looks like working ? (There was just a funky M and it said my ethernet was connected) | 06:45 |
| aaron | (JUST said the ethernet was connected) | 06:45 |
| raylu | aaron: i'm actually not on wireless right now. want the screeny anyway? | 06:45 |
| ubuntistas | how can i completely remove kubuntu? | 06:46 |

| johansja | i can easily install LAMP server on my Ubuntu using tasksel. But how do I prevent it from autostarting or shutting it down? | 06:47 |
| raylu | johansja: you want to prevent the lamp stack from starting up when booting? | 06:48 |
| johansja | raylu, ya, i don't need the localhost server to run all the time | 06:49 |
| johansja | i am using this pc for development purpose only | 06:49 |
| raylu | johansja: sudo update-rc.d -n apache2 remove | 06:49 |
| aaron | raylu: yes please ;) | 06:49 |
| raylu | johansja: will perform a dry-run of removing apache2 from the rc.d | 06:50 |
| raylu | aaron: gave the link. http://foor.res.cmu.edu/f/snapshot5.png | 06:50 |
| johansja | raylu, and how do i start it manually after that? | 06:50 |
| raylu | johansja: switch -n with -f to actually remove all the symlinks | 06:50 |
| raylu | johansja: and do the same for mysqld | 06:50 |
| raylu | johansja: to start/stop it manually, sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 start/stop/status/restart | 06:51 |
| Victorash | hello | 06:51 |

| johansja | that's helpful | 06:52 |
| raylu | aaron: yeah, that icon is kinda strange... but the popup dialog looks nice :D | 06:53 |
| raylu | johansja: also to note: invoke-rc.d basically just runs thngs in /etc/init.d | 06:54 |
| raylu | Victorash: k3b | 06:54 |

| shahram | hello | 07:01 |
| shahram | i have question | 07:01 |
| shahram | who knows why nvidia Driver 180.44 don;t work peroperly on Kubuntu 9.04 | 07:01 |
| shahram | ? | 07:01 |
| Victorash | guys from romania are sleping :)) | 07:01 |
| raylu | !work | 07:02 |
| ubottu | Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 07:02 |
| shahram | i have just installed kubuntu 9.04 | 07:03 |
| shahram | and install the Nvidia 180.44 driver | 07:03 |
| bazhang | shahram, installed how | 07:04 |
| cspack | shahram: did you install it via package manager or download from nvidia website? | 07:04 |
| shahram | downalod from Nvidia site | 07:04 |
| cspack | probabaly need to recompile kernel module for the new kernel | 07:04 |
| shahram | ok i think i have to install the newer vertion | 07:05 |
| bazhang | shahram, always use the package manager first | 07:05 |
| shahram | ok Thankyou | 07:06 |
| cspack | i'm using 180.51, it works fine | 07:06 |
| shahram | yaa i have to downalod it now | 07:06 |
| Victorash | how can i see if my video drivers are updated? | 07:07 |
| shahram | Thankyou all | 07:07 |
| cspack | Victorash: if you use the package manager, it would show up in updates | 07:08 |
| MrDarkUser | raylu: .. I reinstalled network-manager-kde, and tried running NetworkManager and well, it didn't do anything worthwhile | 07:09 |
| MrDarkUser | nothing even close... what is the application name and package? | 07:09 |
| raylu | MrDarkUser: er, sorry, i don't remember helping you | 07:09 |
| raylu | i think you were talking to Daskreech | 07:10 |
| Victorash | ah so it does it automatic | 07:10 |
| bazhang | Victorash, yes, so always wise to use the package manager :) | 07:11 |
| MrDarkUser | raylu: .. oh, Aaron | 07:11 |
| Victorash | i don't understand, u said it updates automatic | 07:12 |
| Victorash | or should i search the driver in package manager | 07:12 |
| bazhang | Victorash, yes, if you choose to check for updates/upgrades; you can set it to notify you on a regular basis if you wish | 07:13 |
| Victorash | it's my second day on ubuntu | 07:13 |
| Victorash | so\ | 07:13 |
| bazhang | Victorash, or simply type into the konsole: sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get upgrade | 07:14 |
| Victorash | is quite hard | 07:14 |
| Victorash | it seems that i don't need any updates | 07:15 |
| Victorash | i need a small, easy to use music player.now i have songbird, but i need something just for play music | 07:16 |

| raylu | Victorash: it is | 07:22 |
| raylu | Victorash: but obviously, movie players implement audio decoding too | 07:22 |
| raylu | Victorash: and you wanted the bare minimum, so here it is. | 07:22 |
| Victorash | but it's not what i need | 07:22 |
| Victorash | really | 07:22 |

| Victorash | ? | 07:22 |
| Victorash | ok | 07:23 |
| Victorash | i thought it's more complex | 07:23 |
| MrDarkUser | Victorash: mpc123 | 07:23 |
| MrDarkUser | or mpg123 | 07:23 |
| raylu | Victorash: well... yes. it has a lot of really complex features... it can play videos in your console :D | 07:24 |

| raylu | noobias: xdpyinfo | 07:44 |
| raylu | xdpyinfo | grep -i composit | 07:44 |
| noobias | that just confuses me | 07:45 |
| victorash | what IM client do you use ?> | 07:47 |
| cspack | desktop effects require the restricted graphics drivers for your card | 07:48 |
| raylu | noobias: do you see composite for the second command? | 07:49 |
| raylu | victorash: bitlbee | 07:49 |
| raylu | cspack: sometimes, not always | 07:49 |
| victorash | <raylu>: is support Yahoo protocols ? | 07:50 |
| raylu | victorash: you'll probably want to use kopete instead. but yes, both bitlbee and kopete support yim | 07:51 |
| cspack | !effects | 07:51 |
| ubottu | Desktop Effects are supported on graphics cards that use the default Intel and ATI drivers and the restricted !NVIDIA drivers, except for the following, which are blacklisted due to stability/compatibility issues: Intel 965, ATI Rs480 and Rv350, ATI Mobility x300, x600 and x700 - Join #compiz-fusion for anything not officially supported by Ubuntu | 07:51 |
| victorash | i just saw a screenshot of bitlbee | 07:52 |
| victorash | :)) | 07:52 |
| raylu | bitlbee is just an irc->im proxy | 07:52 |
| raylu | i'm not sure how you could get a ss of that | 07:52 |
| victorash | aaa | 07:52 |
| victorash | package manager | 07:52 |
| victorash | is an option | 07:52 |
| victorash | see ss | 07:52 |

| victorash | where i can find it ? | 07:54 |
| mike-solidus | hey, i have a wierd issue with kde4 with compositing turned on and i wonder if its an issue in general with nvidia and qt4 and compositing or if theres a fix or if i have a special case. When i'm compositing through opengl with qt4 I get wierd rectangle glitch outline boxes where the windows dissapear and only the background is shown. Is this a known issue? | 07:55 |
| raylu | victorash: like i said, it's an im-irc proxy | 07:56 |
| raylu | victorash: so you need an irc client | 07:56 |
| mike-solidus | I'm not sure what to even search for to find it, i keep getting black rectangle bugs when i use google which is not the but i'm getting | 07:56 |
| raylu | victorash: which is why i also said you'd probably want kopete instead | 07:56 |
| victorash | i'd use kopete | 07:56 |
| victorash | i don't like it | 07:56 |
| victorash | so it's not what i'm looking for | 07:57 |
| raylu | what are you looking for, then? | 07:57 |
| victorash | i need something like kopete, and pidgin | 07:57 |
| victorash | kopete is ..i don't know. i don't like it , some other option ? | 07:58 |
| mike-solidus | victorash: whats wrong with pidgin? | 07:58 |
| raylu | mike-solidus: it crashes and is slow :P | 07:58 |
| victorash | sometimes | 07:58 |
| victorash | corect | 07:58 |
| victorash | it crashes | 07:58 |
| raylu | mike-solidus: it's also not as configurable. | 07:58 |
| victorash | raylu always has the aswer | 07:58 |
| victorash | :)) | 07:59 |
| mike-solidus | raylu: i got scared away from kopete because it deleted my buddy list last time i tried it | 07:59 |
| raylu | mike-solidus: o.0 | 07:59 |
| raylu | mike-solidus: i have a 200+ contact list across 4 networks and kopete was the easiest to manage it with | 07:59 |
| mike-solidus | i had a 140-ish contact list till i used kopete, now i have the 13 i remember | 08:00 |

| miles_ | anyone have experience making multimedia keyboard keys work with Songbird? | 08:41 |
| administrador | hi !! | 08:46 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| raylu | miles_: m... songbird has no support for that in its core | 08:58 |
| raylu | look to addons | 08:58 |
| miles_ | yeah i got the addon raylu, but still no go | 08:58 |
| raylu | you may need to close songbird and unmap them in kde/gnome | 08:59 |
| miles_ | they worked in gnome but seems a little more tricky in KDE | 08:59 |
| miles_ | i had a good fiddle in system settings -> keyboard and Mouse -> Global Keyboard Shortcuts | 09:01 |
| miles_ | and Imput Actions | 09:01 |
| miles_ | Imput Actions actually seemed promising but had no fine control ... so i could assign the play key to start Songbird | 09:03 |
| miles_ | and even after installing the command line addon in songbird it didnt work with "songbird -play" | 09:04 |
| raylu | sorry, i haven't used songbird much since i couldn't get mocp working with it | 09:04 |
| miles_ | plus it was always telling me that my changes wouldnt be saved (permission issue?) | 09:04 |

| miles_ | not specifically | 09:07 |
| * miles_ is a child of the GUI | 09:07 | |
| raylu | miles_: what told you changes wouldn't be saved? kde or songbird? | 09:07 |
| miles_ | the Imput Actions window | 09:07 |
| miles_ | kde | 09:07 |
| raylu | oh... that's strange | 09:08 |
| noobias | i have my videocard installed, but i cant run 3d screensavers or any visiual effects. any one have any ideas? | 09:08 |
| miles_ | i kdesudo'd systemsetting and no change | 09:08 |

| noobias | driver version 180.44 | 09:09 |
| noobias | and i installed it threw terminal | 09:10 |
| noobias | and restarted | 09:10 |
| raylu | miles_: find -uid 0 | 09:10 |
| Tm_T | noobias: can you be more precise? | 09:10 |
| miles_ | i would if i knew what that was | 09:11 |
| noobias | what else do you need to know? | 09:11 |
| noobias | im running 64-bit ubuntu ultimate edition 2.1 | 09:11 |
| Tm_T | noobias: hmmmm, then use "ultimate edition" support, as I cannot know what those fellows have done | 09:11 |
| noobias | hmm | 09:12 |
| noobias | ok | 09:12 |
| raylu | miles_: er, there's a command "find" | 09:12 |
| raylu | miles_: in the terminal, run "find -uid 0" | 09:12 |
| miles_ | oh you mean type find -uid 0 | 09:12 |
| Tm_T | noobias: problem with those unofficial "hacks" is that we cannot support them as they can contain anything | 09:13 |

| dreimark | sorry i meant klipper | 09:22 |
| raylu | dreimark: that sounds like a bug | 09:23 |
| raylu | as a workaround, you can renice it | 09:23 |
| raylu | miles_: ok, that means that nothing in your directory is owned by root | 09:23 |
| miles_ | ah i see | 09:25 |
| dreimark | raylu: do I have to file a bug report or is it enough to mention it here | 09:28 |

| sheytan | First time here, so hi all :D | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | !hi | sheytan | 11:21 |
| ubottu | sheytan: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 11:21 |
| sheytan | want to say, that the new kubuntu rocks! | 11:21 |
| edud | ActionParsnip: don't know | 11:21 |
| sheytan | installed it today first time :D | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | edud: try | 11:21 |
| sheytan | everything's perfect :D | 11:21 |
| edud | I've to reboot to try | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | edud: and then ping www.bmezine.com | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | edud: if the IP pings but the name doesn't then your DNS sucks | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | edud: then try ping your dns | 11:22 |
| fjallagyldir_ | ActionParsnip, its defenitly not an codec issue | 11:22 |
| edud | now i'm using that dns | 11:22 |
| edud | from debian | 11:22 |
| edud | and it works great | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir_: run a player from konsole, when it crashes you will get ome output, pastebin the output | 11:22 |
| edud | it's not a dns trouble | 11:23 |
| edud | it is kubuntu that don't recognize it | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | edud: well try those tets, see what you get | 11:23 |
| edud | tell me just one thing | 11:24 |
| fjallagyldir | ActionParsnip, BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation) | 11:24 |
| edud | network config, and dns config works like debian right? | 11:24 |
| edud | in interfaces i set ip... etc | 11:25 |
| edud | in resolv.conf i set dns | 11:25 |
| edud | or not? | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | edud: in /etc/network/interfaces yes | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | edud: dns is setup in /etc/resolv.conf | 11:25 |

| fjallagyldir | ActionParsnip, and Xorg.log: (EE) intel(0): Failed to pin xv buffer | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir: have a look at what that means | 11:26 |
| fjallagyldir | ActionParsnip, that means, afaik that the new intel driver has a problem | 11:27 |
| Marquis-Vincent | #ubuntu-de | 11:27 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir: have yuo tried renaming the config files in .kde for the player to see if that helpls | 11:27 |
| edud | ok, it's like debian, but when I restart /etc/init.d/networking kubuntu don't use information in resolv.conf, also after I created it and inserted dns | 11:27 |
| fjallagyldir | ActionParsnip, its no matter of the player its with every player | 11:28 |
| valentina | ciao | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir: then the common thing between is X and codecs | 11:28 |
| edud | ciao valentina | 11:28 |
| fjallagyldir | is also no codec issu caus yesterday it worked before the update ActionParsnip | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir: ok what upgraded today? | 11:31 |
| fjallagyldir | from 8.10 to 9.04 dist-upgrade as suggested from update-deamon | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir: thats a massive step | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir: i'd reinstall kubuntu-restricted-extras just to cover that ase | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | as well as the medibuntu codecs | 11:32 |
| fjallagyldir | i can try | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | fjallagyldir: its free to try | 11:32 |
| fjallagyldir | on the run .. | 11:34 |
| fjallagyldir | but i dont think so cause every player itself crushes sometimes even at startup of the player | 11:35 |

| nanoligh1 | I've got a problem with knetworkmanager on jaunty | 12:13 |
| nanoligh1 | It doesn't want to connect and say eth0:disconnected | 12:13 |
| nanoligh1 | eth0: disconnected | 12:14 |
| nanoligh1 | I reached to connect with ifconfig but I think that when i'll reboot, the configuration will be lost | 12:15 |
| nanoligh1 | does anybody got problem with knetworkmanager on KDE4.2? | 12:15 |
| fabian_ | hi everyone - I can't change my icontheme since i updated to kde4, dolphin shows folders always as oxygen and other icons are shown totally wrong (go-back as kde-logo)... what's the matter ? | 12:18 |
| fjallagyldir | domker, open up a terminal and run 'runlevel' | 12:21 |
| nanoligh1 | anybody knows about knetworkmanager problems with wired connections? | 12:22 |
| fjallagyldir | hmm never heard about nanoligh1 | 12:23 |
| domker | fjallagyldir: result: N 2 | 12:23 |
| fjallagyldir | so u r in runlevel 2 | 12:23 |
| fabian_ | nanoligh1: is there "no carrier" shown, when you plug it in ? | 12:24 |
| hwolff | hello, can someone tell me why I get no sound except for skype with works just as it should? | 12:24 |
| fjallagyldir | domker, login as root | 12:25 |
| nanoligh1 | fabian_: hum it's in french but when I'm on the icon it says eth0: not connected | 12:26 |
| fjallagyldir | what was your networkscript called? | 12:26 |
| fjallagyldir | domker, | 12:26 |
| domker | fjallagyldir: networking | 12:27 |
| mmo| | Anyone know how to get 5.1 sound in kubuntu 9.04? | 12:27 |
| fjallagyldir | then do as root 'update-rc.de networking defaults' domker | 12:28 |
| fabian_ | nanoligh1: i experienced that problem.. it seems there are too different packages, which both refer to the command knetworkmanager... is there a "new connection"-button in the menu ? | 12:28 |
| fjallagyldir | mine is working with spdif-pass thru mmo| | 12:28 |
| mmo| | fjallagyldir: how do I set that up? | 12:28 |
| fjallagyldir | does ur soundcard have spdif and is connected ur stereo at that plug? mmo| | 12:29 |
| mmo| | fjallagyldir: my speakers are connected to the digital out on the sound card... | 12:30 |
| domker | fjallagyldir : this command result: 'System startup links for /etc/init.d/networking already exist.' | 12:30 |
| nanoligh1 | fabian_: yes there is, I entered the parameters of my connection but it always says not connected | 12:30 |
| fjallagyldir | hmm then it should start it domker, any syslog entries about that? | 12:31 |
| fjallagyldir | i assume domker it runs over eth0 | 12:31 |
| fjallagyldir | which soundcard mmo| | 12:31 |
| mmo| | fjallagyldir: sb audigy 2 | 12:31 |
| fabian_ | nanoligh1: try to ignore the "manuel ip config" | 12:32 |
| fjallagyldir | does any sound gets out? mmo| | 12:32 |
| domker | fjallagyldir: yes it runs over eth0 with pppoe auth (pass & username) | 12:32 |
| nanoligh1 | I put DHCP? even if I got a router? | 12:33 |
| fjallagyldir | what does 'ls -lah /etc/init.d/networking' say? | 12:33 |
| mmo| | fjallagyldir: yes. There is sound. I actually have some success using an .asoundrc file I have that has worked in the past. It makes VLC play in 5.1. Amarok and dragon plays in stereo (and VERY low volume) though... | 12:33 |
| fabian_ | nanoligh1: as far as i know the rooter will give you an internal ip | 12:34 |
| domker | fjallagydir: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2,4K 2009-03-05 16:02 /etc/init.d/networking | 12:34 |
| fjallagyldir | so i would have a look at the sound-prefs at kmixer mmo| | 12:34 |
| fjallagyldir | mine has an output 'IEC 958 Output' switch which is for the digi out - look for smth similar mmo| | 12:35 |
| fjallagyldir | you have to activate that output and deactivate the according loop - at least at my sndcrd its like that mmo| | 12:36 |

| rmrfslash | LinuxApe: well... there was a slew of cups "upgrades" today | 13:34 |
| ziroday | is it something to do with qtcurve? How do I use it? | 13:34 |
| rmrfslash | zieroday: in 9.04? | 13:34 |
| LinuxApe | rmrfslash: haven't seen them yet. I'll check it out. | 13:34 |
| ziroday | rmrfslash: 8.04, is it any different? | 13:35 |
| LinuxApe | rmrfslash: getting cups updates. There are a slew of them! | 13:37 |
| rmrfslash | ziroday: yes.. big diff. In fact, in 9.04 there's no way to change gtk styles, it's hard coded. | 13:38 |
| rmrfslash | ziroday: I found that qtcurve gave the best overall look and feel to gtk apps. Anything else did funky stuff w/ scroll bars and checkboxes (spec. in firefox) | 13:39 |
| rmrfslash | ziroday: that's even with that scroll bar fix button in 8.04->8.10 | 13:40 |
| ziroday | rmrfslash: okay thanks! | 13:40 |
| rmrfslash | ziroday: in 9.04 the gtk looks very good. very well integrated. I haven't seen any bugs really. | 13:40 |
| rmrfslash | ziroday: I'm for once wholly impressed w/ the transparency they've achieved between Qt and GTK in 9.04 | 13:41 |
| desafinado | hello folks, i use Firestarter for my security, and now it's detecting hit, does it safe? and if it doesn't maybe folks here can write what should i do to secure my ubuntu machine. | 13:42 |

| ubottu | Idhan: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 14:05 |

| rmrfslash | seriously tho... what is with the restricted drivers tool saying "can't install new driver xorg.conf is invalid" | 14:16 |
| rmrfslash | I mean, how can it be invalid if it's working? Can't it just backup my file and make a new one or say "dud,e, you're on your own, you need to put this in your xorg.conf ______" | 14:17 |
| rmrfslash | I've even deleted my xorg.conf file and it still says it's invalid | 14:18 |

| BooVeMan_work | marco_PT: I know its a workround - but why not use firefox? | 17:31 |
| BooVeMan_work | marco_PT: have tried update-alternatives? | 17:31 |
| antoranz | marco_PT: that's a good advice for sure! | 17:31 |

| marco_PT | update-alternatives? | 17:33 |

| antoranz | check if you have this package installed: flashplugin-nonfree | 17:34 |
| claudio_ | is that for me | 17:34 |
| marco_PT | antoranz , yes, without flash kubuntu is useless for me. I'm an internet user. I like to 100% web experience. If I was just a programmer or network administrator maybe I wouldnt mind not having flash | 17:34 |

| BooVeMan_work | marco_PT: if you are an internet user - less I understand why prefer konquereror over firefox | 17:36 |
| marco_PT | yes, but it will be a limited freedom :) | 17:36 |
| antoranz | if you go to the preferences of konqueror, in the plugins section, did you ask it to update? | 17:36 |
| marco_PT | antoranz, yes | 17:36 |
| antoranz | ok, hold on... I'm going there | 17:37 |

| BooVeMan_work | marco_PT: for konqueror was and always will be a file browser - but thats me | 17:38 |
| marco_PT | characters displayed by konqueror are 1000 times better then those from firefox. by caracters I mean fonts | 17:38 |
| BooVeMan_work | marco_PT: firefox allows extensions - never noticed any difference in that | 17:38 |
| marco_PT | if it is mainly a file browser why there is no firfox by default on kubuntu? | 17:39 |
| === kenan is now known as Guest59597 | ||

| BooVeMan_work | gundam_rx78nt1: why would you do that? | 18:01 |
| lupine_85 | gundam_rx78nt1, in the intrepid/hardy repos | 18:01 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | the current kernel will not permit me to connect to wpa-enterprise encrypted networks. | 18:01 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | the older kernel on 8.10 works fine. | 18:01 |
| lupine_85 | but you might want to try a .29 instead | 18:01 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | .29 still doesn't work. | 18:02 |
| lupine_85 | fair enough | 18:02 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | I even tried 30rc and it fails to connect to wpa-eap networks. | 18:02 |
| gundam_rx78nt1 | so I believe the "downgrade" will work. | 18:03 |
| pepperjack | amgarching: sorry i was joking. not really apropriate for this channel :) seems that something is bound to port 22 on your server but the problem is you cant connect is that right? im not sure what the problem would be. if is a remote server you might have someone bounce it for you | 18:03 |
| pepperjack | amgarching: i am for instance unable to even telnet to port 22 on that ip | 18:04 |
| lupine_85 | pepperjack, firewall in the way? | 18:04 |
| lupine_85 | (what is the IP?) | 18:04 |
| pepperjack | lupine_85: amgarching's ip is 129.187.157.200 | 18:05 |
| pepperjack | or the server in question is that ip | 18:05 |
| p-f | any ideas why my soundcard likes to die after coming back from suspend-to-ram? | 18:06 |
| p-f | the device is still there, there just isn't any sound (usually the device just goes away until I reboot though...) | 18:07 |
| * lupine_85 reckons there's a -j DROP somewhere between him and there. that, or the daemon is broken | 18:07 | |
| amgarching | pepperjack: good to know, I am kind of not allowed to "ssh" from anywhere. Was testing if firewall is any good. | 18:07 |
| lupine_85 | kill it, start a netcat server, see if you get anything through? | 18:07 |
| pepperjack | amgarching: ah | 18:07 |
| Mazugrazus | guys how to create user using command useradd ? i wanna create user with name , psw and add him to group | 18:07 |
| Mazugrazus | can someone write me an example | 18:07 |
| Mazugrazus | how to do it? | 18:07 |
| subcool__ | hey- my audio has a annoying echo. I dont get it.. - if i play music.. it stutters like crazy. meanwhile if i goto the system settings- and play a test file from the multimedia area.. it sounds fine. | 18:08 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: "man useradd" or rather "man adduser" | 18:09 |
| peters_ | What IRC client is easy to do split window so I can watch both ubuntuclassroom and ubuntu-classroon-chat at the same time? | 18:09 |
| lupine_85 | Mazugrazus, use adduser instead | 18:09 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: i am read man useradd 20 times... and i cant create. | 18:09 |
| lupine_85 | adduser is much easier: adduser foo | 18:10 |
| Pici | Mazugrazus: don't use useradd, use adduser instead. | 18:10 |
| Mazugrazus | lupine_85: i am writing bash script so i need to use user add becouse if i use adduser i cant write like this adduser user_name user_psw | 18:10 |
| Mazugrazus | if i use useradd i create user but cant log in with him | 18:11 |
| lupine_85 | does your useradd user have a shell? | 18:11 |
| Mazugrazus | yes | 18:11 |
| amgarching | exactly, this what the first line of "man useradd" is suggesting | 18:11 |
| Mazugrazus | create new user or update existing | 18:12 |
| lupine_85 | Mazugrazus, paste the /etc/passwd line? | 18:12 |
| Mazugrazus | root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash | 18:13 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: useradd -d /dev/null -c "Exim Daemon" -g exim -s /bin/false -u 31 exim, Bad example I know | 18:13 |
| lupine_85 | why are you creating a root: user? | 18:13 |
| Mazugrazus | i am creating bash script | 18:14 |
| Mazugrazus | witch must creat users | 18:14 |
| lupine_85 | m | 18:14 |
| MikHel | BooVeMan_work: Thanks. It solved my problem. Though I had to reboot twice. I guess more reboots will tell me if there is a randomness to the success :) | 18:15 |
| Mazugrazus | here is my code: http://www.paste.lt/paste/5b598593a18062a75ecf56899e20109e | 18:15 |
| Mazugrazus | and the line i need to fix is 8 | 18:15 |
| Mazugrazus | if i could set pasword using adduser i would but i dont know any options witch could help me | 18:16 |
| Mazugrazus | to do like this: adduser <option> user user_psw | 18:16 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: just on style: make slash explicit: $HOME_BASE/$user, dont use $USER, this is pre-set | 18:17 |
| lupine_85 | amgarching, HOME_BASE="/home/" | 18:18 |
| Mazugrazus | i wanna write it :) | 18:18 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: "chown" assumes your are in /home, but you are not doing "cd" | 18:18 |
| amgarching | lupine_85: seen that, still one shouldnt do that | 18:19 |
| Mazugrazus | everything i am doing in home | 18:19 |
| lupine_85 | eh, mayhaps | 18:19 |
| Mazugrazus | so whats frong with my 8 line? can anyone fix it? | 18:19 |
| Mazugrazus | :( | 18:19 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: prepend every line in do .. done with "echo", see how it works in dry runs | 18:19 |
| Mazugrazus | i done | 18:20 |
| Mazugrazus | and it reads file vart.txt and do everything good | 18:20 |
| Mazugrazus | user is created but i cant log in :? | 18:20 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: error message says? | 18:21 |
| Mazugrazus | no errors | 18:21 |

| seanw__ | Does anyone know of a button you can hold down when you click so that a link will automatically open in a new tab; instaed of having to right click "open in new tab" ( firefox ) | 18:21 |
| subcool__ | isnt it like shift or something? | 18:21 |
| subcool__ | alt click? | 18:22 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: i log out and try to log in with them. and then i get login failed | 18:22 |
| seanw__ | shift opened it in a new browser :P | 18:22 |
| subcool__ | seanw__: ctrl | 18:22 |

| rosco_y | What is the easiest way to auto-mount a drive? | 18:27 |
| Mazugrazus | mount -o remount ? | 18:27 |
| rosco_y | Mazugrazus: and remounts whenever I reboot/startup my computer? | 18:28 |
| afeijo | my machine dont play dvd disks :( :( | 18:29 |
| rosco_y | or do I have to open up ftab or something of that nature? (newbie alert) | 18:29 |
| rosco_y | No, I have a hard drive that I share with a Windows drive, and I want use it when I boot linux, without having to "mount /dev/sdb3 /mnt/ntfs" | 18:30 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: never done that, see if you can feed passwd to "passwd $user" maybe? | 18:30 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: one more time explain in diferent words :) | 18:31 |
| rosco_y | am I getting the feeling that I'm talking to myself: hmmm, let me see....Yep, I am getting that feeling :) | 18:31 |
| Dragnslcr | rosco_y- in theory, the disk should be automatically detected | 18:32 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: echo "abc123\nabc123" | passwd -q username | 18:33 |
| Dragnslcr | rosco_y- you can take a look at /etc/fstab to see if it's listed there | 18:33 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: rather: echo -e "abc123\nabc123" | 18:34 |
| Mazugrazus | abc123 | 18:35 |
| Mazugrazus | abc123 | 18:35 |
| Mazugrazus | i get | 18:35 |
| Mazugrazus | and what it gives to me? | 18:36 |
| Mazugrazus | :? | 18:36 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: password abc123 as if typed two times by a human in response to "passwd"? | 18:36 |
| Mazugrazus | sorry i cant get the mind what you wanna to tell me | 18:37 |
| Mazugrazus | if i user adduser username | 18:37 |
| Mazugrazus | and then echo | 18:38 |
| Mazugrazus | so i wont get anything.. | 18:38 |
| Mazugrazus | or i am wrong? | 18:38 |
| afeijo | how hard will it be to me replace my root hd? | 18:38 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: execute echo -e "$PASSWORD\n$PASSWORD" | passwd -q username, and see if it worked. After you did "useradd" | 18:39 |

| p_quarles | afeijo: it can be complicated, mainly because of the bootloader | 18:41 |
| afeijo | argh | 18:41 |
| p_quarles | but "hard" is relative to your comfort level | 18:42 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: there is no simple copy then | 18:42 |
| === custom_ is now known as debian | ||
| afeijo | p_quarles: I'm not a low newbie :) | 18:42 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: you could, but then you would need to install GRUB on the new disk | 18:42 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: i get a line type new password, retaip new pasword........ | 18:42 |
| afeijo | I tweaked GRUB couple month ago, I will search about installing it | 18:42 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: the other important thing is to ensure that you preserve the / filesystem's permissions and links | 18:43 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: cp -a is your friend in this case | 18:43 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: and I get this: Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: passwd: password updated successfully | 18:43 |
| SandGorgon | wow.. anybody check out the "screen" that comes with 9.04 ? very cool | 18:43 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: *successfully* | 18:44 |
| Mazugrazus | so it means? | 18:44 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: noted! | 18:44 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: what about if I do a fresh install of kubuntu 8, and after that I cp -a the old disk over the new one? | 18:45 |
| p_quarles | SandGorgon: you mean the screen-profiles business? I disabled it because it interferes with htop :) | 18:45 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: I wouldn't recommend that; if you're just trying to reinstall the same packages, there are easier ways | 18:45 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: it means that user dont have pasword know? | 18:45 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: I did thought about restart, with the last kubuntu 8.10 and maybe kde4 | 18:46 |
| Dragnslcr | Mazugrazus- I'm a bit late here, but what exactly are you trying to do? | 18:46 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: I also need windows xp to run my daughter games lol | 18:46 |
| snikker | hi, how can i run a script at logoff? i'm under jaunty | 18:46 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: man, you *are* already using STDIN redirection here http://www.paste.lt/paste/5b598593a18062a75ecf56899e20109e, why not using it again for "passwd"? Type "passwd username" into cmdline and see how it works. | 18:46 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: not sure what you mean; "reinstall" means wiping the / partition; nothing to do with XP or any other OSes you might have on there | 18:47 |
| Mazugrazus | Dragnslcr: i am creating a bash script to creat user. i am reading a file vart.txt and creating users but i cant create them correctly. | 18:47 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: sorry, I was just chating. Forget for now about XP, it does not exist on my machine :) Reinstall my linux, I keep only my files, and install all app that I use again | 18:48 |
| sponzor | ok is there any howto change ip in wlan and eth0? becose i yust cant get it working :/ | 18:48 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: can I export a list of my app to reinstall with apt-get in one line? | 18:48 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: ah, ok; and fyi, you can fairly easily generate a list of the apps you have installed | 18:48 |
| Dragnslcr | Mazugrazus- and how are you doing it that it isn't working? And what exactly isn't working? | 18:48 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep '[[:space:]]install$' | awk '{print $1}' > package_list | 18:49 |
| Mazugrazus | dri create a user but cant log in with him | 18:49 |
| afeijo | fabulous! | 18:49 |
| Mazugrazus | Dragnslcr i create a user but cant log in with him | 18:49 |
| Dragnslcr | Mazugrazus- how are you creating the user? | 18:49 |
| amgarching | Dragnslcr: useradd seems to accept only enrcypted passwords, so Mazugrazus may want to set it with "passwd" directly | 18:49 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: then you can use that list to install the same packages with: cat package_list | xargs sudo apt-get install -y | 18:49 |
| Logi | for some reason, despite my configuration, when I close the lid on the laptop it logs me out of my X/KDE session rather than suspending to ram. But selecting "Sleep" from the Power Management thingy works. | 18:49 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: be forewarned that if you're changing between K/Ubuntu versions, package names change, and this will require manual pruning of that list | 18:50 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: could you write how must look that line exectly? | 18:50 |
| Logi | I even logged out, deleted ~/.kde/share/config/powerdevil and logged in again to make sure I didn't accidentally leave some misconfiguration in there | 18:50 |
| Dragnslcr | amgarching- seems like generating the password with crypt and then sticking the encrypted string into the command would be easier | 18:50 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: echo -e "$PASSWORD\n$PASSWORD" | passwd -q username | 18:51 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: ok, in that case it will show up on the cmd line right? | 18:51 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: so just add this line and thats all? | 18:51 |
| Mazugrazus | to bash script? | 18:51 |
| amgarching | Dragnslcr: he is new, he needs the simple the better | 18:51 |
| Logi | any idea why the machine would be doing that? | 18:51 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: try it interactively for *some* username first | 18:52 |
| Mazugrazus | amgarching: yes you are right i am newb | 18:52 |
| Mazugrazus | using ubuntu for univercity only | 18:52 |
| Mazugrazus | sory KubuntuŪ | 18:52 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: yes, missing packages will cause the second command to fail, and it will give you the name of the package that doesn't exist | 18:52 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: my current HD have 200gb, I will remove it and use another one of 500 gb. I will install WinXP, than Kubuntu right? I will need Lilo ? | 18:52 |
| Dragnslcr | amgarching- just assigning the encrypted password to a variable would be easier than trying to mess around with the interactivity of passwd | 18:53 |
| amgarching | Mazugrazus: that is fine, but I need to go. Dragnslcr: not to me to Mazugrazus | 18:53 |
| anbesaw | Any idea how I can implement a captive portal with http redirect? | 18:53 |

| Mazugrazus | i get it password updated successfull | 19:04 |

| Mazugrazus | but still cant log in | 19:05 |
| sponzor | yeah that i know but i have to change ip 10-20 times a day and i thought i could use gui program :P is there any other program to manage connections wired and wlan? | 19:05 |
| sponzor | or any howto of the program? | 19:06 |
| === ranieri is now known as ranieri_ | ||

| afeijo | p_quarles: nvidia | 19:11 |
| afeijo | geforce 8 series | 19:11 |
| p_quarles | sponzor: I understand; only thing I can think of that might be easier than editing interfaces is configuring the router to give your MAC address a certain IP address | 19:13 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: should be okay; you can always test with a live disk; there are problems with Intel graphics in 9.04, but nVidia's fine afaik | 19:14 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: I will test with live cd :) | 19:14 |
| afeijo | p_quarles: but in this case its the same HD, how to update without risking my system? | 19:14 |
| Dragnslcr | Mazugrazus- since I can't figure out how to get crypt to just take stdin and write to stdout, the best I can find is to use this in a bash script: PASS=`perl -e 'print crypt($ARGV[0], "password")'` | 19:15 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: update-manager? you'll have to upgrade to 8.10 first, then to 9.04 | 19:15 |
| Dragnslcr | Mazugrazus- then you can use $PASS as the value for the -p option in useradd | 19:15 |
| Morydd | I am unable to get the network management plasmoid working. Both wired and wireless connections say "unmanaged" Any suggestions? | 19:15 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: anyway, the only real way to not risk your system is to have everything backed up; if you don't, it's already being risked | 19:15 |
| sponzor | this router is home router... i dont need this here :P but in work i nead to work like i did before strict policies...:P | 19:15 |
| afeijo | lol I dont have update-manager installed yet | 19:16 |
| p_quarles | sponzor: which networkmanager front-end are you using? | 19:17 |
| pepperjack | /wc | 19:17 |
| Mazugrazus | Dragnslcr: so i need just to add this line? | 19:17 |
| sponzor | this one from 9.04 kubuntu version | 19:17 |
| Dragnslcr | Mazugrazus- and use -p $PASS in useradd | 19:18 |
| p_quarles | sponzor: the networkmanager plasmoid? I love it, but it's still kind of new; maybe install nm-applet and see if the static IP assignment with that works any better for you | 19:18 |
| afeijo | update-manager said that my system is updated, but I have kubuntu 8.04 | 19:18 |
| Mazugrazus | Dragnslcr: i will try | 19:19 |
| sponzor | ok tnx | 19:19 |
| p_quarles | afeijo: with Hardy, you need update-manager -d; because it's looking for the next LTS version, which isn't even in development yet | 19:20 |

| dag_ | did you try to simply log it? | 19:29 |
| Mazugrazus | Dragnslcr: login failed :( | 19:30 |
| sikor_sxe | how do i use strigi desktop search on kubuntu jaunty? | 19:30 |
| valdur55 | Speedlink | 19:30 |
| dag_ | valdur: usb? | 19:31 |
| valdur55 | yes | 19:31 |
| dag_ | valdur: and sorry, which kubuntu? 8.10? | 19:31 |
| Morydd | dag_: right click only shows "manage connections", "network management settings", "panel options" and "remove this network management" | 19:31 |
| valdur55 | :) Lastest kubuntu | 19:32 |
| valdur55 | SL-6810 | 19:33 |
| dag_ | morydd: take a look at manage connection: there you could find "default settings" or manual settings | 19:33 |
| amgarchIn9 | where is the session editor gone: KDE 4.2.2 Jaunty. I have both knetworkmanager and plasma wireless applet starting every time. How to disable former? | 19:35 |
| genii | dag_: When for instance in /etc/network/interfaces you have declarations for eth0 wlan0 or so on, the gui network manager will not use or do anything with these interfaces. Because it will think they have been manually configured | 19:35 |
| dag_ | valdur: plug in the webcam, then open Kopete and go to Settings ---> Configure -----> webcam tab; if you see your face, you're ready to use it | 19:35 |
| gmiernicki | anyone know the name of the package jaunty installs that provides swf in firefox? | 19:35 |
| gmiernicki | (flash support) | 19:35 |
| amgarchIn9 | gmiernicki: aptitude search flash | 19:36 |
| ranieri | sera | 19:36 |
| gmiernicki | searched in synaptic and that didnt work :( | 19:36 |
| valdur55 | But... I have touchpad. | 19:36 |
| valdur55 | Webcame based touchpad | 19:36 |
| gmiernicki | gawd, its the name of some animal... i cant remember which | 19:36 |
| dag_ | genii: it's the same problem of morydd? | 19:38 |
| Morydd | genii: I got no change when I cleared out /etc/network/interfaces | 19:38 |
| amgarchIn9 | gmiernicki: flashplugin-nonfree | 19:39 |
| dag_ | morydd: have you tried with "sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces"? you'll need superuser privileges to change that file | 19:39 |
| ranieri | come fare per caricare la lista? | 19:39 |
| dag_ | ranieri: che lista? | 19:40 |
| Morydd | dag_: well, I used vi :) | 19:40 |

| gmiernicki | hmm, thanks for trying, but thats not it either, cuz thats not installed yet i still have flash ;D | 19:40 |
| Pici | oops | 19:41 |
| dag_ | morydd: with root privileges? | 19:41 |
| ranieri | grazie | 19:42 |
| genii | dag_: I'm suspecting this is what Morydd's isue is. There should only be the "lo" declarations in that file if you want to use the gui network manager | 19:43 |
| Morydd | dag_: yes. | 19:43 |
| gmiernicki | doh, had libflashplayer.so in ~/.mozilla/plugins :X | 19:43 |
| genii | Apologies on lag, work required me | 19:43 |
| BooVeMan_work | genii: Can I create a bridged network interface with the GUI? | 19:43 |
| genii | BooVeMan_work: Not that I know of | 19:44 |
| BooVeMan_work | genii: thought so - so no dice for me... | 19:44 |
| genii | Morydd: For the changes to the interfaces file to allow Network Manager to use eth0 or so on, a reboot is best | 19:44 |
| _debg_ | hi. Is there a way to change the icon on the kde start menu which says "Recently Used" ? | 19:45 |
| _debg_ | which icon file is linked with the icon ? | 19:45 |
| Morydd | genii: Not worth it then. | 19:45 |
| Morydd | thanks. | 19:45 |
| genii | Morydd: np | 19:46 |
| dag_ | morydd and genii: I'm using KnetworkManager, but with default values, as come with the kubuntu installation, and works fine; maybe you'll have to configure it as default, because you should use OR gui OR cli for network manager | 19:47 |
| Morydd | I'll continue my current tactic of "sudo -i" -> "ifdown eth1" -> "cp /etc/network/interfaces.home /etc/network/interfaces" -> "ifup eth1" | 19:47 |
| Morydd | I could never get the network manager to work with my home network when I first started using Ubuntu. | 19:48 |
| dag_ | morydd: knetworkmanager is a little messy, i encountered same problems too | 19:49 |
| dag_ | morydd: although the default values work fine for nearly every dhcp client | 19:49 |
| Morydd | dag_: yeah, but my home network isn't running dhcp | 19:50 |
| dag_ | morydd: if your home network have some static IP you'll better use cli | 19:50 |
| dag_ | morydd: after you write down the etc/network/interfaces, you should reboot your pc | 19:51 |

| mouka | PolitikerNEU: how would I know? | 20:12 |
| mouka | I am new to ubuntu and kubuntu | 20:12 |
| dag_ | foot: did you try to install an alternate version? | 20:12 |
| mouka | I installed ubunut first, then someone suggested installing kde-desktop | 20:13 |
| mouka | so I did | 20:13 |
| PolitikerNEU | mouka: maybe try installing sudo aptitude install gtk-qt-engine-kde4 | 20:13 |
| mouka | most of the windows look nice, but synaptic just looks aweful | 20:13 |
| mouka | ok | 20:13 |

| mouka | yes | 20:14 |
| mouka | firefox looks nice3 | 20:14 |
| mouka | *nice | 20:14 |
| PolitikerNEU | the problem is that synaptics runs under root - and root has different style options than your user account | 20:14 |
| mouka | I see | 20:14 |
| mouka | how do I change that? | 20:14 |
| dhendu9411 | has anyone experienced problems with graphics sluggishness? | 20:14 |
| dhendu9411 | prior to the upgrade, I didn't have this problem. Does the new version require that much more out of a person's graphics card? | 20:15 |
| PolitikerNEU | mouka: Don't know, maybe try running kdesu systemsettings and change appeareance --> gtk-styles | 20:15 |
| foot | no, I did not try the alternate version. Should I? | 20:16 |
| dag_ | foot: toshiba website tells that L305D has a AMD Athlon X2 cpu, is this right? | 20:16 |
| foot | yes cpuinfo lists Sempron 3600+ | 20:17 |
| mouka | PolitikerNEU: it says "kdesu command not found" | 20:17 |
| dag_ | foot: take a look at http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download, and check the box below "Start Download" button | 20:18 |
| PolitikerNEU | mouka: Then try kdesudo or gksu | 20:18 |

| skierpage | brad_ If the answer is to install a different package manager then it seems Kubuntu has some real issues. | 21:23 |

| skierpage | brad_ Yup, Amarok is there. But I want the beta version, which I think involves a different PPA, something like "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main" ? | 21:27 |
| brad_ | Ah ok | 21:27 |
| brad_ | Right | 21:27 |
| fjallagyldir | live system and 'dd' | 21:27 |
| brad_ | The repositories will not have beta stuff | 21:27 |
| fjallagyldir | and for formating 'fdisk' and 'mkfs' | 21:28 |
| brad_ | You need to add the Amarok repository | 21:28 |
| fjallagyldir | or when not fmiliar with cmd-line maybe qparted or so | 21:29 |
| skierpage | brad_ Right, so Settings > Edit Software Sources > Third-Party Software "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu jaunty main" ? | 21:29 |
| brad_ | Let me check the URL | 21:29 |
| brad_ | 2 seconds | 21:30 |
| fjallagyldir | if you have questions try manpages first |PaperTiger| | 21:30 |
| brad_ | Yep, thats the one | 21:30 |
| skierpage | brad_ (thanks a lot BTW) looks like "pool/main" exists but not "dists/jaunty" , maybe I should ask (again) in #amarok | 21:30 |
| dhendu9411 | exit | 21:30 |
| brad_ | yeah | 21:31 |
| brad_ | Just double check the repo stuff there | 21:31 |
| |PaperTiger| | fjallagyldir, manpages? | 21:32 |
| fjallagyldir | man 'cmd' gives you the manual pages of most commands in linux | 21:32 |

| cratylus | hey all, i picked a screen effect that apparently my OSdidn't like and now when i log in i just get the wall paper. i can reach the command line. what's the easiest way to undo or reset my set up (using kubuntu 9.04, with kde 4.2) | 21:55 |
| JontheEchidna | !puregnome | CradLeRcker | 21:55 |
| ubottu | CradLeRcker: 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 » | 21:55 |

| CradLeRcker | thx | 21:56 |
| zerothis | CradLeRcker: be aware that even if you never log in to a KDE session, some of your software may depend on it anyway | 21:57 |
| vlad | i resized a taskbar today, but how would i be able to set it back to the normal height without adjusting it manually? | 21:57 |
| CradLeRcker | mhmm yes im taking note of that | 21:57 |
| vlad | by a normal height i mean a height of a taskbar right after the install | 21:57 |
| vlad | sorry, it might sound like a stupid question :) | 21:58 |
| vlad | and my other question is why doesn't "System Settings" appear in my Kickoff K-menu? it took me an hour to work out how to turn to classical menu and back to Kickoff. | 21:59 |
| vlad | i am new to Kubuntu :) | 22:00 |

| alonea | ok, how do I connect to a network printer???? I have the IP address for it, but after that I dont know what to do. What is this Queue stuff???? | 22:24 |
| alonea | I dont even see a thing to scan the printers on the network or anything. | 22:27 |
| alonea | I used to be able to do this easy, but I dont see any of the screens I used to use before. Anyone??? | 22:29 |
| alonea | 22:31 | |
| ubottu | Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 22:31 |
| DoubleD84 | I'm having problems with Kontact and the rest of the programs associated with it. I'm running Kubuntu 9.04 and I'm getting an undefined symbol error in libQtDesigner.so.4.. I can't of anything I've installed and I've found a big I think is related but none of the solutions pertain to me. Google hasn't really given me any solid results as well. Any ideas? | 22:33 |
| BooVeMan_work | hi folks - some googling didn't through up a solution - how can I fix the update notification icon so it runs the update process (klicking it) with elevated privileges? | 22:33 |
| odyn_ | ooooooooooooooooo | 22:37 |
| alonea | I still can't figure out how to print to a printer that is 3 feet away from me that everyone else in the room can print on in 2 secs on windows and mac | 22:38 |
| DoubleD84 | n/m.. read up on apt-get and simply reinstalled the libQt4-Designer package and everything works fine. | 22:38 |

| denton | hey guys | 23:10 |
| denton | I need to reconfigure my xorg.conf | 23:10 |
| denton | change my default resolution, and change my drivers.. | 23:11 |
| denton | is there some sort of generalized xorg file i could just stick in my file instead of using mine? | 23:12 |
| denton | Vmware Workstation has not configured my xorg.conf and a copy/paste with some tweaking should be ok right? | 23:12 |
| tobi_ | updated my kde3 with Jaunty! After that my sound's not working anymore... thought it might be PulseAudio working not right. So I removed every Pulse entry with synaptic. But it's still in my Systemsettings/Multimedia... And I cant play audio from HD, even not on youtube! Start and Testsound working finde through the HDA Intel Analog device... Someone might have a clou?! | 23:15 |
| mackk431 | swine flue will kill us all | 23:16 |
| mackk431 | tobi did you check if the sound is muted? | 23:17 |
| tobi_ | well, as I said, the Testsound and the Startsound works fine! | 23:18 |
| tobi_ | It's like the photograph with the cap on the cam ready to shoot :D | 23:18 |
| denton | Vmware Workstation has not configured my xorg.conf and i need to run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' | 23:20 |
| denton | correct | 23:20 |
| denton | ? | 23:20 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about remove | 23:39 |
| LjL | !better | 23:39 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 23:39 |
| arcolinux | at least is the same thing but with different ways to configuate it | 23:39 |
| arcolinux | jajaja | 23:39 |
