| genii | brian_: man pages | 02:34 |
| brian_ | is that a website? | 02:35 |
| genii | brian_: and also the -help or --help switches of comands, which give brief usage instructions | 02:35 |
| genii | brian_: No, man pages are the manual or so of a command. If you do like: man ls it tells you about all the options you can use with that command, etc | 02:36 |

| === naz is now known as nazty1 | ||
| sgrover | Shadowkllr: depends on your CPU. I've seen 40 C as normal, 22 C as normal, or even 80 C (old school) | 03:35 |
| Shadowkllr | well, my amd processor on my kubuntu box just died i think...the power comes on, but the video turns off.....i replaced it with an athlon x2 and everything works, but the temp is reading abut 83c | 03:37 |
| sgrover | Shadowkllr: that's high. is the cpu fan running? clear of dust? etc... | 03:37 |
| sgrover | (I'm running an X2-6000 and averaging around 40...) | 03:38 |
| susbwoy | Shadowkllr: thermal paste? | 03:39 |
| Shadowkllr | yeah i cleared it and everything | 03:45 |
| Shadowkllr | shortly before the first processor died, i think it was overheating | 03:46 |
| Shadowkllr | and when i took it out to clean it, and put it back in, the computer would turn on but there was no video | 03:46 |
| Shadowkllr | swapped it with the athlon and everything worked, albeit very hot | 03:46 |
| justyup | pull all your cards n reboot | 03:50 |
| justyup | put cards back in | 03:50 |
| sgrover | btw, athlon's are a little older and do tend to run hotter than newer cpu's.... | 03:52 |
| justyup | put extra fans in case | 03:53 |

| Level15 | hey, on ubuntu 9.04 i try to compile somethind and get error: ‘strlen’ was not declared in this scope | 04:42 |
| Level15 | what am i missing? | 04:42 |
| Yud_Zroc | the identifier | 04:43 |
| Yud_Zroc | int strlen; | 04:44 |
| Yud_Zroc | or whatever data type | 04:44 |
| Yud_Zroc | ur talking c++ right | 04:44 |
| Level15 | Yud_Zroc: yes... but it is supposed to be a standard function, so I need not to declare it | 04:45 |
| Yud_Zroc | hm paste bin the code to me | 04:45 |
| Level15 | Yud_Zroc: it's not my code, its a program... I know for a fact it compiles on 8.04 and 8.10 | 04:46 |
| Yud_Zroc | hm can i see it anyways | 04:46 |
| Yud_Zroc | im in c++ class atm so i cant tell off the bat (im still considered new to c++ imo) | 04:46 |
| Level15 | Yud_Zroc: let me find it | 04:47 |
| Yud_Zroc | it could be that u are using a different g++ | 04:47 |
| Level15 | Yud_Zroc: http://pastebin.com/m580cf354 | 04:48 |
| Yud_Zroc | i dont see anywhere that it is declaired | 04:50 |
| Yud_Zroc | not even in the header | 04:50 |
| Yud_Zroc | u need to declair it | 04:50 |
| Level15 | Yud_Zroc: strlen is a well documented function... it needs no declaration, just the relevant include which is string library. | 04:51 |
| Level15 | http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/cstring/strlen/ | 04:51 |
| * Yud_Zroc if an idiot | 04:52 | |
| Yud_Zroc | hm | 04:53 |
| Yud_Zroc | header files u obviously have so im thinking it is way out of my legue | 04:53 |
| Yud_Zroc | when u included ur header files | 04:54 |
| Yud_Zroc | do u have it with a .h | 04:54 |
| Yud_Zroc | cause that was removed | 04:55 |
| Yud_Zroc | from standard ization | 04:55 |
| Level15 | Yud_Zroc: no, it has no h | 04:55 |
| Yud_Zroc | damn | 04:55 |
| Yud_Zroc | i dont know then sorry | 04:55 |
| Level15 | i bet it's something weird with the new gcc/g++ | 04:55 |
| Yud_Zroc | i could ask my teach but i dont see her til monday | 04:55 |
| Level15 | allrite, figured it out. NOw it's not part of string but of cstring... | 05:00 |
| Level15 | had to add that include | 05:00 |

| thomas_ | I am just confused why it is placed in "Blocked Updates" | 05:55 |
| thomas_ | Updates: | 05:55 |
| thomas_ | linux-headers-generic-2.6.28.11.15 | 05:55 |
| tsimpson | thomas_: because it's installation would break other packages | 05:55 |
| Daskreech | husayn: Millions of packets per second | 05:56 |
| thomas_ | linux-image-generic-2.6.28.11.15 | 05:56 |
| husayn | ahh thanks.... | 05:56 |
| thomas_ | I guess that is a good thing than | 05:56 |
| thomas_ | I have had multiple bugs since upgrading to 9.04 and was thinking maybe the new kernel would fix some | 05:57 |
| * tsimpson thinks that -proposed should not be enabled by default | 05:57 | |
| tsimpson | thomas_: I doubt a kernel update would fix many user visible bugs | 05:57 |
| dwidmann | tsimpson: is it now? sounds like a recipe for trouble | 05:58 |
| Daskreech | tsimpson: including kernel crashes? :-) | 05:58 |
| tsimpson | dwidmann: apparently so | 05:58 |
| tsimpson | Daskreech: that's why I said "many" not "any" ;) | 05:58 |
| Daskreech | Having said that I've had more kernel crashes in Jackalope than all my previous releases put together | 05:59 |
| tsimpson | I haven't has any since edgy | 05:59 |
| tsimpson | s/has/h | 05:59 |
| thomas_ | Yeah, never seen this many bugs | 05:59 |
| tsimpson | ad | 05:59 |
| * dwidmann tries something | 06:00 | |
| thomas_ | Should have waited, the features were not even worth the upgrade | 06:00 |

| SJr | How do I change my keyboard repeat rate, it seems to be set to zero right now. | 06:04 |
| SJr | i.e. it never repeats | 06:04 |
| Daskreech | thomas_: On the bright side you can get KDE 4.3 :) | 06:05 |
| thomas_ | Daskreech: Is 4.3 out yet? | 06:06 |
| Daskreech | thomas_: No or you'd have it | 06:06 |
| Daskreech | When it does come out you can install it on the latest Kubuntu | 06:06 |
| thomas_ | Daskreech: No beta or RC? | 06:06 |
| Daskreech | You can get those too | 06:07 |
| thomas_ | I wonder how stable it is | 06:07 |
| Daskreech | Freeze was monday so a little bit more before Beta | 06:07 |
| thomas_ | eh, I am gonna wait | 06:07 |
| Daskreech | I know 5 people who run on the daily code. One who uses it on his work machine | 06:07 |
| thomas_ | Maybe I will install VM and install it | 06:08 |
| Daskreech | Anecdotal evidence :) | 06:08 |
| Daskreech | It's not a 4.1 -> 4.2 jump | 06:08 |
| thomas_ | July 28 is release | 06:09 |
| Daskreech | Yeah | 06:11 |

| pushrax | hi all. doing recent upgrade patches I have 4 kernal items that are blocked from upgrading, any ideas why we can't upgrade? | 06:39 |
| RurouniJones | Is there a guide out there on the steps that need to be taken to get software into the ubuntu repositories? Both technical and administrative? | 06:40 |
| pushrax | RurouniJones: are you aware of launchpad.net | 06:41 |
| RurouniJones | Software hosting site isn't it? | 06:41 |
| RurouniJones | Like sourceforge | 06:42 |
| pushrax | RurouniJones: well they are the beehive of development for ubunutu and other projects | 06:42 |
| pushrax | RurouniJones: I'm no expert but I think you should look there for info | 06:42 |
| RurouniJones | Cheers, already looking | 06:42 |
| pushrax | RurouniJones: or the ubuntu forums | 06:43 |
| pushrax | np | 06:43 |
| RurouniJones | My google-fu has failed me so far, usually when I google an ubuntu topic the forums are the first result | 06:43 |
| Makuseru | If I install Kubuntu 9.04 from one of the iso's avaliable on the website, would I be able to install KDE3.5 and substitute that out from KDE4? (I downloaded the Kubuntu 3.5 remix cd, but couldn't get it to install) | 06:43 |
| RurouniJones | But tinsce this isn't really an end user question I am not getting as far as I would lik e;) | 06:43 |
| RurouniJones | Makuseru: Yes, with caveats | 06:44 |
| RurouniJones | Download the 9.04 and install normally | 06:44 |
| RurouniJones | Or this: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty | 06:44 |
| doleyb | !ppa | RurouniJones | 06:44 |
| ubottu | RurouniJones: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 06:44 |
| Makuseru | RurouniJones: I downloaded that and put it on a CD and couldnt get it to install properly. | 06:45 |
| pushrax | hi all. doing recent upgrade patches I have 4 kernal items that are blocked from upgrading, any ideas why we can't upgrade? | 06:46 |
| RurouniJones | doleyb: Cheers, so before anything getting software into the official repositories getting the software to work on a PPA is pretty essential to the process ;) | 06:46 |
| jussi01 | pushrax: quite possibly because all the packages are not built yet? | 06:47 |
| pushrax | jussi01 ok thanks | 06:48 |
| pushrax | jussi01 I was hoping it wasn't jsut me as I have fgl divers installed. | 06:49 |

| eagles0513875 | afazel: its strange how your getting resolution problems in kde have you tried to fix the resolution | 07:17 |
| afazel | I have. The resolution says it's correct, but nothing fits in its containers | 07:18 |
| afazel | I'm at 1920x1080 if it makes any difference in kde | 07:18 |
| eagles0513875 | whats the resolution of your monitor on gnome | 07:19 |
| iivv | eagles0513874: quick question. i'm unloading some pre-installed packages, and it seems that 'kubuntu-desktop - 1.122' will be removed as a dependency. this sounds like a very bad thing | 07:19 |

| Elone | question: can i have a machine doing loggings on connections , but i don't want the HDD keep on spinning all the time, is there is away to cache the data on ram and flush it like once a day to the disk? like setting a very large buffer and disable write thru? | 07:20 |
| eagles0513875 | iivv: what you trying to install | 07:21 |
| eagles0513875 | Elone: thats rather risky especially if there is a power outage there would be no time to write to disk and all the logs would be lost | 07:22 |

| Daskreech | Hi Jonie | 07:32 |
| sony | Well i am trying to recover some documents from an ntfs partition | 07:33 |

| Elone | hmmm what if it isn't a raid | 07:33 |
| sony | thanx man | 07:33 |
| Daskreech | Elone: Linux basically does that everytime it boots | 07:33 |
| pushrax | sony: if you use synaptic package manager in jaunty you get more results on a search for 'recover' 'rescue' etc. | 07:34 |
| eagles0513875 | Elone: i know its nto but im trying to give you an example | 07:34 |
| eagles0513875 | Elone: raid controller has a batter so that in case of power outage it can quickly write the stuff to disk | 07:34 |
| Daskreech | apt-cache search :) | 07:34 |
| eagles0513875 | Elone: what you proposing on doing doesnt have a fail safe to write stuff to disk if there is a power outage all the logs gathered would be lost | 07:35 |
| wineuser | Anyone know why Kubuntu 8.04 won't display 640x480 resolution for me? | 07:35 |

| pushrax | wineuser: have you defined your monitor and vid card first? | 07:35 |
| Daskreech | Cause that resolution is for peasants! which you are obviously not since you are running Kubuntu! | 07:36 |
| wineuser | Just the automatic thing it does, my xorg config file looks really barren | 07:36 |
| pushrax | wineuser: use systemsettings | 07:37 |
| Elone | eagles0513875, yes ~ but how to set that ~ i don't need a fail safe one ;p ~ it is for my linux router box but i don't want the HDD keep running all the time | 07:37 |
| eagles0513875 | Elone: then why not have it use pxe boot of your main linux box that way you dont need a hard drive at all | 07:38 |

| eagles0513875 | Elone: do a network boot off your main machine then have it xfer the logs over the network some how | 07:39 |
| wineuser | xrandr doesn't do it | 07:39 |
| eagles0513875 | Elone: if you are interested in doing something like that i would ask in linux-cluster they might be able to help you with that better then i can | 07:39 |
| Elone | eagles0513875, coz it is a OLD machine don't support PXE | 07:39 |
| eagles0513875 | humm | 07:40 |

| eagles0513875 | djdarkman: can compil it from source any versions that they have out | 07:44 |
| wineuser | so, anyone on why xrandr setting my resolution to 640x480 gives me a black screen. I can set the whole thing to run at 640x480, but there's only a few things I need to run that small. | 07:44 |

| * djdarkman wonders what were the Kubuntu QA thinking when putting the KDE4 umbrello in in the first place... | 07:47 | |
| wineuser | KDE4, why I'm using 8.04 | 07:47 |
| djdarkman | so can I say: I want the good old KDE3 version and apt will do the work? | 07:47 |
| eagles0513875 | wineuser: your problem sounds more like an xorg issue not sure if you want to pop in there and ask | 07:47 |
| eagles0513875 | djdarkman: apt-build will do the optimization compile and install the program and all dependencies | 07:48 |
| wineuser | yeah, probably, but it's only kubuntu that has that problem. Runs great with slackware, gentoo, debian and fedora | 07:48 |
| djdarkman | eagles0513875: but how do I tell it which version I want it to build? and to put it in /opt so that apt won't mess with it? | 07:49 |
| eagles0513875 | djdarkman: normally builds whats in repos :( | 07:49 |
| eagles0513875 | wineuser: sudo dpkg-reconfigure then the package of the xorg server forgot what one it is | 07:49 |

| djdarkman | yes Da\ | 07:53 |
| djdarkman | Daskreech: but it will do no good | 07:53 |

| Daskreech | Adept? | 08:18 |
| alid | Daskreech: Yes, the command maco told me fixed the problem. Thanks maco! | 08:18 |
| Daskreech | That probably means that a error message needs to be rewritten | 08:19 |
| maco | ok kpk should totally *not* recommend adept | 08:19 |

| eagles0513875 | noaXess: i normally avoid upgrades from one release to another all together | 08:59 |
| eagles0513875 | noaXess: have you tried purging konsole and reinstall from a tty prompt | 09:00 |
| noaXess | eagles0513875: not yet | 09:01 |
| eagles0513875 | noaXess: try that and see if that does anything for ya | 09:01 |
| eagles0513875 | noaXess: also while you are at it | 09:01 |
| noaXess | eagles0513875: how to purge it cleanly | 09:01 |
| eagles0513875 | sudo apt-get purge | 09:01 |
| eagles0513875 | sudo apt-get purge konsole | 09:01 |
| eagles0513875 | noaXess: also recommend purging adept and knetworkmanager and installing kpackagekit and plasma-widget-network-manager | 09:02 |
| eagles0513875 | those are new in jaunty that replace adept and knetwork manager | 09:02 |
| noaXess | eagles0513875: so then: the following packages will be removed: konsole kubuntu-desktop updatenotifier-kde xorg.. | 09:02 |
| noaXess | bad idea | 09:02 |
| Daskreech | CrummyGummy: It won't run at all? | 09:03 |
| eagles0513875 | strange | 09:04 |
| eagles0513875 | noaXess: if you purge kubuntu desktop youll be left with command line and then you can reinstall the packages mentioned above | 09:04 |
| Daskreech | eagles0513875: No you won't | 09:04 |
| CrummyGummy | Daskreech: No, I can run kwin --replace and it works. | 09:04 |
| eagles0513875 | Daskreech: what will you be left with base kde install | 09:05 |
| Daskreech | CrummyGummy: if you run it and then log out instantly you should get it back on re-login | 09:05 |
| CrummyGummy | No, I have to run it again. | 09:05 |
| Daskreech | eagles0513875: If you remove kubuntu-desktop it removes the virtual package | 09:06 |
| Daskreech | CrummyGummy: even if you logout instantly. How are you running kwin --replace ? | 09:06 |
| eagles0513875 | noaXess: try apt-get autoremove konsole and see if its the same out come | 09:06 |
| CrummyGummy | kwin --replace& in konsole. Everything works, there are just no decorations. | 09:07 |
| Daskreech | CrummyGummy: do it in krunner | 09:07 |
| CrummyGummy | oh | 09:07 |
| CrummyGummy | hmmm | 09:08 |
| noaXess | eagles0513875: same | 09:08 |
| CrummyGummy | How do I do that? I don't have that box in front of me. | 09:08 |
| eagles0513875 | noaXess: i dunno :( | 09:08 |
| Daskreech | CrummyGummy: alt+F2 | 09:09 |
| noaXess | just one other: if i get this from ssh: Offending key in /home/thomi/.ssh/known_hosts:27.. will that mean the key on line 27 in known_hosts? | 09:09 |
| noaXess | or line 26? | 09:09 |
| Daskreech | Yes | 09:09 |
| Daskreech | line 27 | 09:09 |
| noaXess | Daskreech: how can i see which key os for which host? | 09:10 |
| noaXess | is for... | 09:10 |
| CrummyGummy | Daskreech: K, thanks. I'll try that later tonight. | 09:10 |
| Daskreech | I forget if you look through the Hash there is a thing at the end that gives a hint | 09:10 |
| noaXess | Daskreech: no hint :( | 09:11 |
| Daskreech | I remember doing a copy of the file and taking out lines one by one until I figured out how to do it | 09:11 |
| Daskreech | It was annoying | 09:11 |
| Daskreech | even more so if they changed the way the hash is done | 09:12 |
| noaXess | after deleting the line.. need i do anything to refresh or just reconnect over ssh to the host? | 09:12 |
| Daskreech | econnect | 09:12 |
| Daskreech | re | 09:12 |
| eagles0513875 | tonker^^: check pm | 09:13 |
| noaXess | Daskreech: ok | 09:13 |
| Daskreech | worked? | 09:13 |
| noaXess | so.. then i get this: PTY allocation request failed on channel 0 | 09:13 |
| noaXess | on the host if i restart openssh-server i get something like:.... /dev/pts not mounted? | 09:14 |
| Daskreech | is there a /dev/pts ? | 09:15 |
| noaXess | Daskreech: jep... but no content | 09:15 |
| noaXess | its a director | 09:16 |
| noaXess | y | 09:16 |
| Daskreech | not even one file ? | 09:16 |
| reisi | noaXess: have you just upgraded from 8.10 -> 9.04? | 09:17 |

| noaXess | reisi: jep | 09:18 |
| noaXess | some broken files? | 09:18 |
| reisi | noaXess: we've noticed the same problem on one of my collegues computer after the upgrade.. other symptoms include not being able to start any consoles under X | 09:18 |
| reisi | noaXess: if you search launchpad, you'll find this bug, as related to konsole i believe | 09:19 |
| noaXess | reisi: jep me too.. find out the problem and a fix | 09:19 |
| noaXess | reisi: is there a solution/fix | 09:19 |
| reisi | noaXess: you can temporarily fix it by mounting the devpts manually | 09:19 |
| noaXess | reisi: yhould /dev/pts be a file or a dir? | 09:20 |
| noaXess | dir.. ok | 09:20 |
| reisi | noaXess: it's a directory, into which you should mount "devpts" | 09:20 |
| noaXess | just sudo mount devpts /dev/pts? | 09:20 |
| reisi | noaXess: please locate the bug and comment your experiences | 09:20 |
| noaXess | reisi: on mount: special device devpts does not exist... | 09:21 |
| reisi | noaXess: check out /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh, line 41 | 09:21 |
| reisi | noaXess: that's the one that is failing.. or then it's udev somehow | 09:21 |
| noaXess | reisi: ok. the line ist there.. but no devpts spec. device.. | 09:22 |
| noaXess | hm.. | 09:22 |
| tonker^^ | Since I'm new to Linux, can anyone tell me how to get a floppy drive working? (I know that floppies are over the hill, but I'd like to know) | 09:22 |
| reisi | noaXess: there's no "device" to mount devpts from, that's why the syntax for mount command is rather obscure | 09:23 |
| noaXess | ? | 09:24 |
| reisi | noaXess: that's also the reason why i can't say what's the correct line to mount it.. i just know that my collegue managed to mount it somehow | 09:24 |
| noaXess | ok | 09:24 |
| reisi | noaXess: what you are mounting is a special filesystem called "devpts" (AFAIK), mount -t devpts /dev/pts -o <options> | 09:24 |
| reisi | noaXess: just make sure you set the options as they were in that /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh | 09:25 |
| reisi | noaXess: otherwise it will not work or it might be a security problem | 09:25 |
| reisi | tonker^^: afair floppy devices are /dev/fdN where N is 0, 1, 2 and so on | 09:25 |
| tonker^^ | Thanks reisi, tried that but doesn't work. Tells me that floppy is not in etc etc | 09:27 |
| Daskreech | !floppy | 09:28 |

| noaXess | reisi: reinstalling udev.. | 09:30 |

| moro[ita] | aleph0: have you tryied playing around nvidia-settings? | 14:36 |
| estan | eagles0513875: yes, i guess so. but i'd like NetworkManager to stay completely off those two interfaces, no matter what events occur. i'd like to configure them manually in /etc/network/interfaces. | 14:37 |
| eagles0513875 | estan: im not sure | 14:37 |
| estan | alright. | 14:37 |
| aleph0 | yes. in nvidia settings I enable and disable twinview. when it was enabled the panel appeared on the external monitor I click-and-dragged it back to my laptop. then, when I was back at home I disabled twinview and now I can't see my panel anymore.... | 14:37 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: mmm..i've never had this problem, and i'm using an nvidia...imo you should try connecting both monitors | 14:40 |
| Bauldrick | estan: have you tried wicd | 14:40 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: autodetect them | 14:41 |
| estan | Bauldrick: i have on a laptop i had once, i'd really rather use the Network Management widget (running KDE trunk). | 14:41 |
| aleph0 | I don't understand | 14:41 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: mmm...can you connect both the monitors? | 14:42 |
| estan | Bauldrick: i think it should be possible to tell NetworkManager to not touch some interfaces. | 14:42 |
| aleph0 | I have only one display and no I do not have another monitor. the external monitor in question was a projector I used for a talk at college. | 14:42 |
| aleph0 | otherwise I'd connect it to look for my panel ;) | 14:42 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: ok, understood...if you are interested i can post you my Xorg.conf... | 14:43 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: maybe, you should try using mine... | 14:44 |
| genii | estan: The previous behaviour was that if networkmanager noticed entries for an interface, it would not use them, thinking they had been manually configured already. | 14:44 |
| aleph0 | do you believe that it is xorg.conf that is the issue here and not plasmarc or plasmawhateverrc? | 14:44 |
| oriotiori | hi | 14:44 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: mmm...i think that it tryies to put your panel in a portion of your monitor that doesn't exist... | 14:45 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: maybe in a virtual one, (the projector...) | 14:45 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: but i'm not shure at all.. | 14:45 |
| a_ok | i installed the fglrx drivers now i my screen is all messed up how can i fix this? | 14:46 |
| aleph0 | yes that's what I think, but where is the panel position stored in config files? do you know? | 14:46 |
| estan | genii: ah. do you know if this behavior has changed, or it should work if i just add them in /etc/network/interfaces? i'm just about to try.. | 14:46 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: no, i really don't know...if you want you cold try to stop your kdm, move ~/.kde into ~./kde_bakup | 14:47 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: start kdm again and try to login... | 14:47 |
| oriotiori | see you later | 14:47 |
| genii | estan: I'm still using older kde. I would suggest to try manual entry in /etc/network/interfaces and just see. If it doesn't behave as expected, you can always of course revert the file | 14:48 |
| moro[ita] | aleph0: your system will build again your personale settings for kde, so if the problem is in a config file you'll fix it... | 14:48 |
| aleph0 | alright. thankts moro[ita]. | 14:48 |
| estan | genii: alright. i think this doesn't really depend on KDE, but on the behavior of the NetworkManager daemon. | 14:48 |
| estan | genii: hm. after adding the interfaces to /etc/network/interfaces, the Network Management plasma widget says eth0: Unmanaged and eth1: Unmanaged, so that's promising.. but they didn't have any IP after a reboot, i wonder if i typed something wrong in /etc/network/interfaces; http://dose.se/interfaces.txt ? | 14:53 |
| genii | estan: Taking a look | 14:54 |
| estan | (if i do ifup eth0 and ifup eth1 after reboot, it works..) | 14:54 |
| estan | maybe i just need to reboot after having done ifup on them (e.g. ifup saves some kind of state?). | 14:54 |
| genii | estan: I think yer missing the "auto eth0" and "auto eth1" | 14:55 |
| estan | genii: ah that's it, good catch. thanks! | 14:56 |
| * estan tries another reboot. | 14:57 | |
| genii | estan: np | 14:57 |
| estan | yep. that did it. works fine now. | 15:00 |

| ToreadorVampire | Hey again - revisiting a question I asked a few days ago, I thought I had fixed the issue and now it has come back ... | 15:04 |
| ToreadorVampire | Using Kubuntu Jaunty it seems that system-wide if I select some text using the mouse it gets copied into the clipboard (or, the equivalent of that, when I last asked someone mentioned that I have *two* clipboards or something, although I didn't entirely understand what they were talking about at the time) | 15:06 |
| ToreadorVampire | Oh, wait, it's not system-wide ... | 15:08 |
| lupoalberto | salve | 15:09 |
| ToreadorVampire | wtf, if monodevelop has implemented that as a feature then I might have to go kill someone :( | 15:09 |
| devilsadvocate | ToreadorVampire: does your system sort of hang up when you select text? | 15:10 |
| eagles0513875 | lupoalberto: what language are you looking for bro | 15:10 |
| wett | Hi | 15:10 |
| eagles0513875 | !hi | wett | 15:10 |
| ubottu | wett: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu! | 15:10 |
| ToreadorVampire | devilsadvocate> No, I had a similar problem a while ago, but I assumed that it was related to klipper (I selected some text, paused with the mouse and then the text got copied to the clipboard for no good reason) | 15:11 |
| ToreadorVampire | devilsadvocate> But - I solved that by just disabling klipper and telling it never to start up | 15:11 |
| yw84ever | ToreadorVampire: so you wanted things you selected not to be copied into klipper? | 15:12 |
| ToreadorVampire | yw84ever> Yes, but I solved it just by disabling klipper | 15:12 |
| ToreadorVampire | Since I never used it anyway | 15:12 |

| tomsdale_ | sorry | 15:13 |
| yw84ever | tomsdale_: i guess not everyone uses kubuntu to get away from ms windows ;) | 15:13 |
| === yw84ever is now known as WaltzingAlong | ||
| ToreadorVampire | But - I just experienced similar behaviour in monodevelop and thought the problem had returned, but it hadn't - it was specific to MD, and now I'm wondering if they implemented some kind of crazy "select text and we copy it for you" feature | 15:13 |
| ToreadorVampire | Which is just plain dumb | 15:14 |
| ToreadorVampire | It's OK in xchat, because if I am selecting text then I probably do want it copied | 15:14 |
| vistakiller | how i disable the Beeb sound from mobo? | 15:14 |
| ToreadorVampire | But MD keeps overwriting my clipboard :( | 15:14 |
| tomsdale_ | yw84ever I just saw this and had to try it. It doesnt get the aero transparency of the window decoration though. | 15:15 |
| * ToreadorVampire uses compiz anyway | 15:15 | |
| tomsdale_ | ToreadorVampire: can you use compiz for windows dekoration? do you know whether it supports masked transparency and background blur? | 15:17 |

| === _rysiek|pl_ is now known as rysiek|pl | ||
| ToreadorVampire | tomsdale_> Yeah | 15:19 |
| ToreadorVampire | tbh I haven't changed the window decorations to a glass-look theme, but I am using the compiz-kde-decorator (or whatever it's called) | 15:19 |
| vistakiller | anyone knows about the beep? :P | 15:20 |
| ToreadorVampire | vistakiller> Erm, no, not really | 15:20 |
| vistakiller | how i disable i have do clean install and i forgot how i do it the last time | 15:20 |
| vistakiller | every time a beep when i pass backspace.. | 15:21 |
| vistakiller | press* | 15:21 |
| ToreadorVampire | tomsdale_> Using compiz/compiz-fusion in KDE 3.5/Kubuntu Hardy I changed to a glassy-look theme and that blurred the background behind the 'glass' decorations quite nicely | 15:21 |
| tomsdale_ | ToreadorVampire: wouldnt compiz intruduce quite an overhead since most of the effects are already provided by Kwin. | 15:25 |
| baz_44 | hello | 15:25 |
| ToreadorVampire | tomsdale_> compiz replaces kwin | 15:25 |
| accol | does anyone know how to rid of that internal speaker beeping sound? it beeps like crazy when i shut down | 15:25 |
| tomsdale_ | I'm on KDE4 Jaunty btw | 15:25 |
| ToreadorVampire | When you start compiz up, it removes kwin as the window manager | 15:25 |
| ToreadorVampire | tomsdale_> It replaces kwin regardless of whether it's kwin 3.5 or kwin 4.x | 15:25 |
| baz_44 | yeah, it's just replace the previous window manager | 15:26 |
| ToreadorVampire | In fact, you know if you don't have compiz configured right, because all of your window decorations will vanish | 15:26 |
| tomsdale_ | ToreadorVampire, baz_44: ah - not sure whether I want that. maybe for testing under a differnt user but not for my main desktop. kwin is unstable enough on my system. (CPU hog sometimes) | 15:27 |
| baz_44 | has anybody experienced problems with sound after upgrading to jaunty?? | 15:27 |
| vistakiller | i have problems with sound | 15:28 |
| vistakiller | clean install | 15:28 |
| baz_44 | i just can't be bothered doing it again ;) | 15:28 |
| vistakiller | i have to install pulseaudio and set it | 15:28 |
| vistakiller | is the only solution | 15:29 |
| ToreadorVampire | baz_44> Only in so much that it was too loud and nearly blew my laptop's speakers, but I turned the PCM volume-component down and everything is peachy now | 15:29 |
| baz_44 | sadly | 15:29 |
| baz_44 | my problem is | 15:29 |
| vistakiller | before i cant hear anything with amarok and the half programmes | 15:29 |
| baz_44 | can have amaroke fine, | 15:29 |
| baz_44 | but if i tried to open the browser asking for youtube, get no sound from youtube | 15:29 |
| vistakiller | you must install pulseaudio | 15:29 |
| vistakiller | i have the same problems like you have | 15:30 |
| baz_44 | so i had to stop amaroke and restart the browser again to get the sound back | 15:30 |
| vistakiller | yes i know | 15:30 |
| baz_44 | ah ok, i will give it a try, cheers | 15:30 |
| baz_44 | is the package called pulseaudio??? | 15:30 |
| tomsdale_ | linux-restricted-modules-generic-2.6.28.11.15 is held back but the new kernel was installed by an update. This results in no network connection if I boot into the latest kernel. | 15:32 |
| tomsdale_ | Anyone knows why or how I can get that package? | 15:33 |
| BluesKaj | tomsdale_, for some reason some packages are being held back until other updates/upgrades are available..I had the same issue yesterday | 15:34 |
| tzanger | Good morning... what is the kde 4 equivalent of kooka? I'd like to do some scanning with SANE | 15:34 |
| tomsdale_ | BluesKaj: Its sort of a nuissance since the new kernel is already installed and grub reconfigured to use it - but it misses the drivers now to make my system usable ... | 15:35 |
| SydneyGuy | Hi all and how r u? | 15:35 |
| BluesKaj | tomsdale_ , just keep upgrading using the older kernel | 15:35 |
| BluesKaj | tomsdale_ I had to run my box on the older kernel most of yesterday | 15:36 |
| tomsdale_ | BluesKaj: yeah - I'll keep doing that for a couple of days to see whether I can get out of dependancy hell :-) | 15:36 |

| BluesKaj | yes | 15:37 |
| Filthpig | so I reinstalled Kubuntu 9.04 last night and now things seem to work a bit more "right".. So far, at least! However, on this laptop which uses en ATI X2100 gfx-card and the open source radeon-driver I get some weird "noise" in the picture on my right hand side, from the plasma icon and all the way down. Any idea what this is, and if it's possible to fix it? | 15:37 |
| bedahr | Hi! | 15:38 |
| tzanger | urf, intel GMA xorg driver is unstable in 9.04 :-( | 15:39 |
| bedahr | I am having major problems with the sound on a Kubuntu Jaunty VM... Is Portaudio (e.g. Audacity) currently broken? | 15:39 |
| wirelessmonkey | bedahr - mine is working fine, can't help much more than that though. | 15:43 |
| bedahr | wirelessmonkey: so you can play your recordings? | 15:43 |
| piksi | is anyone else experiencing graphical corruption in qt programs, especially buttons and text fields? something like this: http://dos.pi-xi.net/corruption.png ? gtk apps don't seem to be affected and i've ran memtest86+ for a couple of full cycles just to be sure it's not corruption | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr , running kubuntu on VMWare ? | 15:44 |
| bedahr | something is really strange here. If I record a sample (with arecord) of about 10 seconds and play it back with mplayer it is only about 1 second long -.- | 15:44 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: yes | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | why? | 15:45 |
| piksi | i've filed a bug against intel xorg driver but as it's only affecting qt programs i thought it would be relevant to file a bug against a qt/plasma/some kde package as well | 15:45 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: because I am a software developer (using Gentoo as my main OS) and have got a bugreport stating that my program doesn't work on Kubuntu Jaunty | 15:45 |
| Unksi | piksi: only in konsole, and even there its not often | 15:45 |
| bedahr | and I have to test it on Kubuntu, Ubuntu (different sound problems), OpenSUSE, etc. I need to do it virtualized... | 15:46 |
| piksi | i haven't found a bug in launchpad that would match exactly what i'm seeing | 15:46 |
| piksi | s/bug/bug report/ | 15:46 |
| piksi | Unksi: what display driver are you using? | 15:46 |
| Unksi | intel xorg driver | 15:47 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr, maybe you should ask in #VMware | 15:47 |
| Unksi | with intel 945gme | 15:47 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: I don't think it is related to VMWare (albeit it might be a complicating factor) because I experienced something similar on my bosses notebook (Kubuntu 9.04 live cd) | 15:47 |
| wirelessmonkey | sorry bedahr, yes I can hear recordings | 15:47 |
| bedahr | wirelessmonkey: ok thanks | 15:48 |
| bedahr | the user who initially reported the problems with the sound in my application was using 8.10 and dist-upgraded to 9.04 | 15:48 |
| bedahr | that is when his problems started... | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr, make sure you have pulseaudio installed | 15:49 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: why? | 15:49 |
| bedahr | I am not really a big fan of pulseaudio and AFAIK it is not running by default on Kubuntu? | 15:49 |
| nameiner_ | piksi: I have the same problems, do you have a link to the bug you filed so I can confirm | 15:49 |
| bedahr | (I don't really know just there is nothing returned when I grep ps aux for "pulse") | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | it's doesn't install as the default on alot of setups, depending on their existing audio architecture | 15:50 |
| piksi | nameiner_: intel xorg driver with intel gma x4500 or similar setup? | 15:50 |
| nameiner_ | piksi: exactly | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | !pulseaudio | 15:50 |
| bedahr | wirelessmonkey: do you have pulseaudio installed? | 15:50 |
| ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 15:50 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: I know about pulseaudio | 15:50 |
| bedahr | I also know about the massive problems it caused in my previous experiences with it | 15:51 |
| piksi | nameiner_: ok just a moment, launchpad seems to be annoyingly slow at the moment | 15:51 |
| bedahr | also, I don't really want people to force using pulseaudio if it is not nescessairy | 15:51 |
| bedahr | wirelessmonkey: do you use pulseaudio? | 15:51 |
| wirelessmonkey | bedahr - I thought I did, but apparently not. And I was all proud that I had a working pulseaudio setup :( | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr, not a fan of pulseaudio either but I have no choice in the matter. | 15:51 |
| bedahr | wirelessmonkey: ok so it should work without pulseaudio | 15:52 |
| piksi | nameiner_: it's been moved here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/362919 so just add a comment after mine :-) | 15:52 |
| bedahr | I'll try it anyways to be sure | 15:52 |

| peterz | piksi: corruption isn't he biggest problem with intel gfx, the driver crashes frequently on s2r | 15:53 |
| Hedge|Hog | does anyone know if kde 4.2.3 will be come to the intrepid repositories? | 15:55 |
| piksi | peterz: oh that too. about 50% of the time i have to coldboot after resume. luckily though the driver doesn't anymore crash when an app requests an opengl context like it did on 8.10.... | 15:55 |
| Yud_Zroc | for program conversion should i be in the off topic channel | 15:56 |

| dhuv | hello all,I was wondering if there are any solutions for the Xorg CPU problem, it is making Jaunty feel very very sluggish | 16:12 |
| dwidmann | dhuv: try turning off desktop effects and see if its still sluggish | 16:12 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: Yeah but sound is pretty much hit-and-miss. There are a hundred components involved that no-one really wants to touch in my experience. And if something goes wrong you will have a _really_ hard time finding out what it is... | 16:12 |
| Yud_Zroc | dhuv: are u usinbg an nvidia card | 16:13 |
| baz_44 | quit | 16:13 |
| bedahr | Yud_Zroc: If you are on KDE 4 you have a wealth of awesome looking plasmoids - don't waste your time on conky. | 16:13 |
| dwidmann | Yud_Zroc: strangely enough, I've got an nvidia card and the most current driver and it's smooth as silk, quit the change from a year ago | 16:13 |
| dwidmann | s/quit/quite/ | 16:14 |
| Yud_Zroc | 180 | 16:14 |
| tomsdale | but be careful with CPU load - when using monitoring plasmoids - my experience | 16:14 |
| bedahr | dwidmann: yes I noticed that too. Wait for KDE 4.3 (trunk is running here) - it is even faster | 16:14 |
| Yud_Zroc | so should i stay away from compiz | 16:14 |
| bedahr | and the new air theme is gorgeous | 16:14 |
| amarok-- | hey guys one question does blueman work on kubuntu 8.10 | 16:15 |
| tomsdale | bedahr: do you know whether 4.3 will come as a regular update in jaunty or as a backport | 16:15 |
| bedahr | Yud_Zroc: I would try the KWin effects first. For me it is enough eye-candy and it integrates better with the rest of KDE | 16:15 |
| bedahr | tomsdale: sorry - I am not even an Ubuntu user... | 16:15 |
| puddle | okay guys issues i REAlly am a linux noob. Somone set a root kit up on my machine. I turn it off turn it back on again and it starts with a blue screen. Checking for memory and stuff, Pleaz someone help. | 16:16 |

| puddle | so i am rooted with a root kit and all of a sudden it starts of with a memtest for 6 hours? | 16:19 |
| puddle | bedahr okay thanks | 16:19 |
| bedahr | don't do anything until I say "Go" ^^ | 16:19 |
| puddle | :) | 16:19 |
| wirelessmonkey | why would you think you've been rooted? | 16:19 |
| bedahr | 1. Don't panic - memtest is you rfriend :) | 16:19 |
| bedahr | 2. reboot by pressing escape | 16:19 |
| wirelessmonkey | Sounds more like a grub error, IME | 16:19 |
| puddle | wirelessmonkey | 16:19 |
| bedahr | 3. after your bios there is a short period of a few seconds where grub says "Press ESC to display menu..." or similar | 16:19 |
| bedahr | 4. press escape to pull up the grub menu | 16:20 |
| puddle | I am rooted WITH A ROOT Kit i know i am | 16:20 |
| bedahr | 5. List the options presented there. There will be likely an entry "Check Memory" or "Memtest" at the first position but what else is there? | 16:20 |
| wirelessmonkey | puddle - it may be so, but nothing you've said indicates that. Nonetheless, bedahr is trying to push you through it, so I won't argue. | 16:20 |
| bedahr | puddle: Go! | 16:20 |
| puddle | kk | 16:21 |
| puddle | ty | 16:21 |
| bedahr | puddle: Fixed? | 16:22 |
| puddle | bedahr wait. My friend says put my kde disk in | 16:22 |
| puddle | And try it without loading then reinstall it..... | 16:22 |
| bedahr | what? | 16:22 |
| puddle | <k0pp> put your kubuntu cd in, load it, pick "try kubuntu without installing ... " | 16:23 |
| bedahr | puddle: most likely you don't need to reinstall anything | 16:23 |
| dhuv | dwidmann: desktop effects are turned off | 16:23 |
| dhuv | Yud_Zroc: I am using the opensource radeon driver | 16:23 |
| bedahr | puddle: this will just start the live system off the install cd | 16:23 |
| puddle | bedahr look mate. I know i said im a linux noob | 16:23 |
| puddle | look im being snooped on | 16:23 |
| puddle | i have a bot implanted in my pc | 16:23 |
| Yud_Zroc | dhuv: im only familiar with nvidia sorry | 16:23 |
| puddle | This is whats scaring me the most | 16:23 |
| Yud_Zroc | have you tried using envy | 16:23 |
| bedahr | puddle: Any proof or are you just being paranoid?... | 16:24 |
| puddle | bedahr yes | 16:24 |
| bedahr | brb... | 16:24 |
| puddle | i dont a search | 16:24 |
| dhuv | konsole just crashed when I resized it | 16:24 |
| amarok-- | hey man you can reinstall kubuntu | 16:24 |
| puddle | I have a r00t kit....... | 16:24 |
| puddle | Anyways i will write down what you said bedahr and try it :) | 16:24 |
| wirelessmonkey | puddle: you keep saying that. Does it mean what you think it means? If you're really that worried, you should reinstall. | 16:25 |
| Yud_Zroc | would any of you recommend kate for a text editor for school | 16:26 |
| yknott | Yud_Zroc:sure | 16:26 |
| aapzak | kate rocks! | 16:26 |
| yknott | Yud_Zroc: and LaTeX for beautiful presentations and documents | 16:27 |
| aapzak | yknott: o yes | 16:27 |
| wirelessmonkey | emacs-nox ftw! | 16:27 |
| tomsdale | hey, I wouldn'T mind looking over a couple of bugs and I just joined the BugSquad. Where do I go from there ? | 16:27 |
| aapzak | I use kile for beamer/latex docs for presentations | 16:27 |
| aapzak | kate for regular script editing | 16:28 |
| Yud_Zroc | well i need a good editor for c++ | 16:28 |
| wirelessmonkey | tomsdale - browse them on launchpad... | 16:28 |
| aapzak | only one thing bothers me .. evince displays the graphics in the pdf much better than okular | 16:28 |
| bedahr | Yud_Zroc: editor or IDE? | 16:28 |
| aapzak | good question | 16:28 |
| i3ooi3oo_ | Does anyone use electricsheep here ? | 16:29 |
| tomsdale | wirelessmonkey: ah, so you just pick something you like. | 16:29 |
| Yud_Zroc | bedahr: i used g++ as a compiler, im just looking for a good editor when i used windows i liked blood dev-C++ | 16:29 |
| aapzak | Yud_Zroc: I've seen some nice reviews about qt creator | 16:29 |
| bedahr | tomsdale: I would have an application for you that needs testing - there have been reported problems with the sound recording / playback on Jaunty :) | 16:29 |
| aapzak | thats an ide | 16:29 |
| wirelessmonkey | tomsdale: yes, if you can submit a patch for a bug, you should. | 16:30 |
| bedahr | Yud_Zroc: that is an IDE. You could try qt creator it is quite nice | 16:30 |
| Yud_Zroc | aapzak: well all i want is lightwaight (the reason for switching to linux) | 16:30 |
| bedahr | KDevelop4 is not ready for production yet | 16:30 |
| tomsdale | wirelessmonkey: that'ts more than I signed up for! But I wouldnt mind testing confirming up to debugging if nescessary. | 16:30 |
| Yud_Zroc | the lighter the better | 16:30 |
| bedahr | Yud_Zroc: Have a look at QtCreator | 16:30 |
| bedahr | I am using vim but that might be a little to spartan I don't know | 16:31 |
| tomsdale | bedahr: sounds interesting. I have a Dell e6400 laptop, if testing on that hardware helps you | 16:31 |
| bedahr | any form of testing helps. Really interested? I would love to get some user feedback | 16:31 |
| bedahr | It's about the speech recognition (command & control) application simon | 16:31 |
| tomsdale | bedahr: yes. | 16:32 |
| aapzak | Yud_Zroc: I cannot say anything on qt creator weight, I'd say ... give it a try! | 16:32 |
| bedahr | tomsdale: cool. There is a precompiled deb package for the rc1 but it does not contain debug information | 16:32 |
| wirelessmonkey | Yud_Zroc: I think eclipse might work for you too. | 16:32 |
| carpii | im trying to remote desktop from 8.04 to a new 9.10 install, and although i can connect, the display is recognisable but all corrupt. Is this a known problem? | 16:32 |
| bedahr | tomsdale: but you could use it to test if you experience the same sound problems. Does audacity work for you? | 16:33 |
| tomsdale | bedahr: yes - no problem | 16:33 |
| bedahr | (audacity and simon use the same library - portaudio - for recording and playback) | 16:33 |
| bedahr | perfect | 16:33 |
| === i3ooi3oo_ is now known as i3ooi3oo | ||

| aapzak | can someone tell me if we had a fix in xorg or intel recently? | 16:33 |
| amarok-- | guys anyone know how i can put videos on my ipod classic? | 16:33 |
| bedahr | well skype has it's own soundstack afaik | 16:33 |
| bedahr | tomsdale: do you have a mic? | 16:34 |
| Yud_Zroc | intel works right out of box 80% of the time | 16:34 |
| i3ooi3oo | aapzak: why did you xorg die? | 16:34 |
| wirelessmonkey | aapzak - If it's the Intel video dysfunction, I don't think so. | 16:34 |
| tomsdale | bedahr: well, the build in mic on my laptop and I think I can reuse a hedphone on the line in. | 16:34 |
| aapzak | i3ooi3oo: au contrere (how do you spell that?), it works fine! | 16:34 |
| bedahr | tomsdale: ok as long as your build in mic works with alsa (it does if skype works) it will be fine | 16:35 |
| tomsdale | bedahr: ah - will have to compile. I'm on 64bit. | 16:35 |
| i3ooi3oo | Oh mine started getting a signal 11 on start up after restarting from a recent update | 16:35 |
| bedahr | tomsdale: yeah sorry... | 16:35 |
| amarok-- | guys anyone know how i can put videos on my ipod classic? | 16:35 |
| bedahr | but if you have to compile anyways would you mind getting the svn version? | 16:35 |

| ilyast91 | hi , =) | 16:47 |
| wirelessmonkey | crs - hello | 16:47 |
| crs | I dont really know how to enable nvidia drivers for this card: 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44 [Quadro NVS 285] (rev a1) | 16:47 |
| Yud_Zroc | crs: get envy | 16:47 |
| Yud_Zroc | it makes ur life alot easier | 16:47 |
| crs | hardware manager says that I have nvidia enabled but nvidia-setting says I am not | 16:47 |
| Yud_Zroc | ill get u the link | 16:47 |
| crs | envy? | 16:47 |
| Yud_Zroc | yesh | 16:47 |
| Yud_Zroc | its a python script that does it for u and i have never had anyproblems with it | 16:48 |
| crs | hardware manager says that I have nvidia enabled but nvidia-setting says I am don't. | 16:48 |
| Yud_Zroc | http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 16:48 |
| crs | it works with kubuntu as well, doesnt it? | 16:49 |
| Yud_Zroc | works with all versions of ubuntu | 16:49 |
| Yud_Zroc | and more | 16:49 |
| crs | Yud_Zroc: Thanks for that | 16:51 |
| Yud_Zroc | np | 16:52 |
| crs | restert | 16:52 |
| Yud_Zroc | i used it with al my linux boxes | 16:52 |
| crs | why ctrl-alt-backspace doesnt work here? ;p | 16:52 |
| crs | ok, restart then | 16:53 |
| carpii | im trying to remote desktop from 8.04 to a new 9.10 install, and although i can connect, the display is recognisable but all corrupt. Is this a known problem? | 16:53 |
| draik_ | I was gifted a computer and I'm using it as my personal Ubuntu server. If I just want it to be local for me to access/share files, how would I go about doing that? I also want to be able to access them outside of my home network. | 16:53 |
| carpii | draik, share the files using nfs is your best bet | 16:54 |
| Yud_Zroc | what is the /opt directory used for | 16:54 |
| carpii | bet accessing it outside your lan is a different story | 16:54 |
| draik_ | carpii: OK. I'm still stuck on trying to give it a hostname | 16:54 |
| carpii | i name all mine after american ghost towns :p | 16:54 |
| crs | Yud_Zroc: it works, thanks | 16:55 |
| carpii | Yud, i think some distros put user installed software in /opt. Its probably just on ubuntu for compatability reasons | 16:55 |
| draik_ | carpii: The word 'tryst' came up in my head and that's what I'm going with now. What should I put for Domain Name? | 16:58 |
| SydneyGuy | How Can I make a domain name for my machine | 16:59 |
| carpii | just leave it as localdomain, or pick something arbitary but same as desktop | 16:59 |
| puddle | bedahr its fixed i am installing it | 16:59 |
| puddle | from disk | 16:59 |
| SydneyGuy | if I call my machine say earth.com .. ??? | 17:00 |
| SydneyGuy | Any problem | 17:00 |
| carpii | no, but dont expect it to be accessible from internet | 17:01 |
| aapzak | and dont expect to be able to browse to the real earth.com from that machine | 17:02 |
| SydneyGuy | Say if I have 3 machines in a local network.. and I have a DHCP server ... and I made names for them .. can they access each other through their domain names | 17:02 |
| aapzak | hostnames | 17:02 |
| aapzak | yes | 17:02 |
| carpii | their hostnames, | 17:02 |
| SydneyGuy | I ment hostnames | 17:02 |
| SydneyGuy | and their domain name is part of the host name | 17:02 |
| aapzak | I believe hostname is just one name, no dots | 17:03 |
| SydneyGuy | Ok .. How can I change the hostname and domain name permanently | 17:03 |
| draik_ | carpii: So I should just use 'localdomain' for the domain name entry? | 17:03 |
| SydneyGuy | Why? | 17:04 |
| draik_ | SydneyGuy: Your statement is contradictory. | 17:04 |
| SydneyGuy | localhost.localdomain | 17:04 |
| SydneyGuy | ?! | 17:05 |
| SydneyGuy | ? | 17:06 |
| SydneyGuy | Am I alone? | 17:06 |

| i3ooi3oo | it's a fractal screen saver | 17:07 |
| i3ooi3oo | I can't get it to work on kubuntu | 17:07 |
| aapzak | ah, I don't believe in cycle using screensavers | 17:07 |
| aapzak | just blank it | 17:08 |
| i3ooi3oo | for my work PC | 17:08 |
| aapzak | even then | 17:08 |
| i3ooi3oo | If i was paying the power bill I would. | 17:08 |
| aapzak | lol | 17:08 |
| i3ooi3oo | but as i am using a monitor that is broken and does not power up properly I can not let it sleep | 17:09 |
| i3ooi3oo | or it might take 20 minutes to warm up and work again | 17:09 |
| aapzak | i3ooi3oo: that is a good reason | 17:09 |
| i3ooi3oo | so back to my question anyone use electric sheep? | 17:09 |

| bedahr | Yud_Zroc: I know but I wasn't here and thought your solution might be something I could try out for my own audio problem | 17:12 |
| i3ooi3oo | only lunch | 17:12 |
| bedahr | Yud_Zroc: about the power-thing: tried powertop? | 17:12 |

| bedahr | exactly | 17:18 |
| mackk431 | hello i am trying to use the program xvidcap to get some parts of my screen copied. everything runs well except the sound capturing. is anybody expierienced here who could provide tipps to get the sound with xvidcap? | 17:18 |
| bedahr | and as pulseaudio uses alas to do the heavy lifting it can't sound "better" | 17:19 |
| popey | mackk431: I'd use recordmydesktop instead | 17:20 |
| mackk431 | recordmydektop says | 17:22 |
| mackk431 | Couldn't open PCM device hw:0,0 | 17:22 |
| mackk431 | Error while opening/configuring soundcard hw:0,0 | 17:22 |
| mackk431 | Try running with the --no-sound or specify a correct device. | 17:22 |
| bedahr | mackk431: I have had problems with the sound in both xvidcap and recordmydesktop so I end up just recording the sound with audacity | 17:23 |
| draik_ | On the server setup, I'm only making it so that I can share my files easily at home. All I need to choose for software is OpenSSH Server, right? | 17:23 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr, yeah , I wish KDE devs would make up their minds which system they intend to use ...gnome uses pulseaudio as the default and as i understand it kde still uses the linux-sound-base | 17:23 |
| mackk431 | trying audacity thanks | 17:24 |
| thinkpad | hi:) | 17:24 |
| p_quarles | draik_: openssh-server will allow you to share files via sftp/scp; if that's what you're looking for, that's all you need | 17:25 |
| mackk431 | i think some device in ubuntu doesnt free multiple access to it | 17:25 |
| genii | draik_: With openssh-server you can just do fish:// protocol from home to it, yes | 17:25 |
| mackk431 | to the sound device i mean | 17:25 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: What do you mean by "linux-sound-base"? | 17:26 |
| bedahr | KDE4 uses phonon which is imho quite nice but still has no support for recording and AFAIK it is not planned to be extended soon | 17:26 |
| draik_ | p_quarles: genii: Great. That's what I'm wanting. | 17:26 |
| Yud_Zroc | how do i force the removal of a directory that has stuff in it | 17:26 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr , i looked for sound server in adept , that's all i could find that resembles one | 17:27 |
| p_quarles | Yud_Zroc: drag it to the trash? :) | 17:27 |
| genii | Yud_Zroc: Use the -r and -f options of the rm command | 17:27 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: Phonon is not a sound server but an API | 17:28 |
| bedahr | it is a much thinner layer between ALSA and the application than pulseaudio | 17:28 |
| bedahr | aaron seigo once did a very nice overview of current sound technologies on linux maybe I'll find it... | 17:29 |
| amarok-- | guys i had a question | 17:30 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr , looks like a real sound server required for those who want to record thru audacity etc , hence the pulseaudio option | 17:30 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: no not really. A sound server is not _required_ for anything really. | 17:31 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr, I mean live recording thru mics etc | 17:31 |
| bedahr | In fact I don't use any | 17:31 |
| eagles0513875 | amarok--: !ask | 17:31 |
| bedahr | Ok here is my try at explaining what phonon / pulseaudio etc. does :) | 17:31 |
| eagles0513875 | !ask | amarok-- | 17:31 |
| ubottu | amarok--: 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. :-) | 17:31 |
| amarok-- | i installed kubuntu in xforcevesa mode while installing it coz i had some problems with the display i got them fixed now could any one tell me how i can get back my original resolution and not be stuck in xforcevesa mode | 17:32 |
| bedahr | ALSA is the library and the interface to the hardware. Using alsa commands you can record and play sound. | 17:32 |
| bedahr | If your hardware does not support hardware mixing (playing to streams at once at hardware level) you were out of luck with earlier alsa versions | 17:32 |
| eagles0513875 | amarok--: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 17:33 |
| mackk431 | how do i use alsa commands to record sounds? what is the command? | 17:33 |
| eagles0513875 | does vpn need to be done over a wired connection or can it be done over wifi | 17:33 |
| bedahr | so you could just use one sound-using application at a time. Because of this sound server emerged and did mixing in software (they collected multiple streams, muxed them into one and send that to ALSA to output) | 17:33 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr , yes alsa is part of the linux-sound-base | 17:33 |
| mackk431 | ive tried this before rec -d /dev/dsp test.wav | 17:33 |
| mackk431 | he said | 17:34 |
| amarok-- | hey man thanks for that very quick reply | 17:34 |
| mackk431 | rec formats: can't open input file `/dev/dsp': Device or resource busy | 17:34 |
| bedahr | now ALSA supports software mixing on its own (DMix / DSNoop) and sound server in the traditional sense became obsolete. However, they now do other stuff like per-application volume control, network transparency, etc. | 17:34 |
| bedahr | I don't need any of that. | 17:34 |
| eagles0513875 | amarok--: no problem that should allow you to reconfigure your xserver and fix your resolution | 17:34 |
| BluesKaj | others might tho , bedahr | 17:34 |
| mackk431 | the system cant access the device if it is used | 17:35 |
| === _luis_lopez_ is now known as luis_lopez | ||
| mackk431 | so how can i record from it its always used if i want to record | 17:36 |
| bedahr | BluesKaj: that might be the case but the advantages are imho too specific to justify shipping with such a problematic software by default | 17:37 |

| jseabold | Hi all, using Kubuntu Jaunty and KDE 4.2.2. I was wondering where I could change the system wide charset in KDE. I don't see it in System Settings anywhere, and am getting weird characters when I try to build some software from source. | 17:40 |
| jseabold | It's default according to Konsole is ISO-8859-1 and I think I'd rather be using UTF-8. Any ideas or suggestions? | 17:40 |
| BluesKaj | bedahr, that was my complaint a while back after I realized pulseaudio was gnome only ...not that I want pulseaudio | 17:40 |
| draik_ | I'm on my desktop and I followed the instructions for playing encrypted DVDs. It's an image and I can't seem to play it. All instructions have been followed for medibuntu and kaffeine | 17:40 |
| mackk431 | the visual content though is captured except the sound | 17:40 |
| mackk431 | i think i will get a micro and put it on the box to get the sound :) | 17:41 |
| pinion_ | I'm running a couple of PC's off a KVM and Kubuntu 9.04 throws my resolution down to 800x600 as soon as I plug it back in to the KVM and reboot. How can I force my standard 1280x1024? | 17:42 |
| draik_ | pinion_: Mine did the same thing right now. Log out and restart your X server | 17:43 |
| pinion_ | I have | 17:49 |

| hagabaka | is no one else getting a conflict when upgrading that results in removing linux-generic? | 17:53 |
| draik_ | How can I change my TTYs to have green text instead of the standard white? | 17:53 |
| draik_ | hagabaka: I am on desktop, laptop and netbook | 17:53 |
| hagabaka | oh you're getting the conflict on 3 computers? | 17:55 |

| amarok-- | hey guys i installed kubuntu in xforcevesa mode and now it's giving me a display resolution of 800x600 how can i get out of this thing | 18:09 |
| bedahr | amarok--: (keep in mind that I am not an ubuntu user so this might not be the official way to do it) did you check your xorg.conf? | 18:14 |
| bedahr | I don't know what "xforcevesa" is but I assume it forces X to use the vesa driver instead of a better suited one (radeon / nv if you want to stay open source) | 18:15 |
| amarok-- | yes an during the installation i was in that mode and it installed my pc in that vesa mode any idea how i can get out of this man | 18:16 |
| bedahr | your xorg.conf (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) should have a section "Device" which contains a line "Driver ...". Change that to the correct driver and add your resolutions to the "Screen" section | 18:16 |
| bedahr | then restart your xorg.conf | 18:16 |
| bedahr | restart xorg I mean | 18:16 |
| amarok-- | ohk lemme try it | 18:17 |

| naz | which is a better VM to run kubuntu from vista64, suns virtual box, or VMware Workstation | 19:14 |
| naz | hi | 19:15 |
| zerlord | how is it possible, that my linux system, which has the kernel version hardy do not found new releases when i use "sudo do-release-upgrade"? | 19:15 |
| naz | i can get my kubuntu to load up in either | 19:15 |
| Hedge|Hog | naz: in my experience vbox has acutally been more resourcefriendly both in linux and vista as host oses | 19:16 |
| naz | Hedge|Hog: i have 2 hard disks one is Sata 320 hooked into port one which has windows vista 64 on it, the other is a IDE 160 using a IDE 2 SATA connector plugged into sata port 2 | 19:18 |
| Hedge|Hog | naz: noted | 19:19 |
| carpii | zerlord, you mean sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 19:20 |
| Hedge|Hog | insults aside, you dont need separate discs or partitions to run a modern vm | 19:20 |
| Hedge|Hog | if that was what you meant | 19:20 |
| eagles0513875 | i got all the updates to kde 4.2.3 but for some reason its still showign that i on 4.2.2 | 19:21 |
| eagles0513875 | any idea why | 19:21 |
| zerlord | caprii: this doesent work either | 19:22 |
| naz | Hedge|Hog: on the 2nd hard drive i have Kubuntu 9.04 jaunty 64 bit | 19:23 |
| naz | now when i try to power it on using vista as the host i get a grub error 17 | 19:23 |
| zerlord | for what is sudo do-release-upgrade? | 19:23 |
| Hedge|Hog | naz: you can actually run atleast a vbox vm on a disc natively in write through mode, however this is not recommended and is quite a pain to set up | 19:24 |
| Hedge|Hog | naz: ok, as i said, its not recommended and it seems to have harmed a mbr or so | 19:24 |
| Hedge|Hog | google fix grub ubuntu | 19:24 |

| eagles0513875 | that 2nd link my help ya Hedge|Hog | 19:25 |
| naz | it works fine | 19:25 |
| eagles0513875 | what is the issue naz | 19:25 |
| Hedge|Hog | naz: you got grub errors? in a vm or natively? | 19:26 |

| naz | i got that error in Sun VBOX and VMware Workstation | 19:26 |
| Hedge|Hog | *virtual hdd | 19:27 |
| eagles0513875 | the vm still has a bios so you might wanna try that forum post it might help | 19:27 |
| naz | so get rid of my linux partitions | 19:28 |
| naz | and install linux through vmware | 19:28 |
| eagles0513875 | if you get rid of your linux partitions and you have windows on the duel boot you will loose access to windows | 19:28 |
| Hedge|Hog | naz: no need to get rid of it, but install kubuntu or whatever you want to run from the vm instead yes, that will probably be most painless, and you get just a little performance degradation | 19:29 |
| naz | sun vbox dont have a bios | 19:29 |

| naz | You are using a SCSI physical disk. SCSI physical disks do not dual-boot well (that is. an already installed operating system is unlikely to boot correctly inside a virtual machine). However, SCSI physical disks should work fine if used exclusively within the virtual machine. | 19:35 |

| afeijo | omg | 22:54 |
| afeijo | xjjk: its not | 22:54 |
| xjjk | afeijo: then no | 22:54 |
| xjjk | afeijo: you can create a Live USB key, boot from that, freeing up your recorder | 22:54 |
| afeijo | sh** | 22:54 |
| afeijo | xjjk: cool!! any link with the steps? | 22:54 |

| xjjk | afeijo: it's worked well for me | 22:56 |
| afeijo | sweet, I'll try | 22:56 |
| xjjk | afeijo: though, I have had problems with the alternate installer | 22:56 |
| afeijo | well I have 20 min. to learn how to do it, until my .iso downloads ;) | 22:57 |
| xjjk | it's incredibly easy | 22:57 |
| xjjk | but start now, the tool is not fast | 22:57 |
| xjjk | and if you can get by with a CD image, use a CD image | 22:58 |
| xjjk | it takes a *very* long time with DVD images | 22:58 |

| xjjk | afeijo: err, which LiveCD are you using? the Ubuntu one? | 23:02 |
| afeijo | kubuntu 8.04 | 23:02 |

| OxDeadC0de | david__: with samba and netbios? | 23:17 |
| afeijo | xjjk: there is no alternative to usb-creator? | 23:18 |
| xjjk | afeijo: did you use software sources to neable hardy-backports | 23:18 |
| xjjk | and hardy-proposed | 23:18 |
| xjjk | afeijo: there are several, but for Ubuntu, usb-creator is the best | 23:19 |
| xjjk | afeijo: unetbootin is another similar tool | 23:19 |
| afeijo | sources? no | 23:19 |
| xjjk | afeijo: yeh... enable those repositories | 23:19 |
| xjjk | then update your package lists | 23:19 |
| xjjk | usb-creator should be there | 23:19 |
| xjjk | and it should fetch all the dependencies for you | 23:19 |
| afeijo | apt-get update? | 23:20 |
| xjjk | afeijo: yeh | 23:20 |

| afeijo | yes | 23:24 |
| xjjk | copy one of the ones that is prefixed with deb http://blah... | 23:25 |

| afeijo | mine is in portuguese, let me searc | 23:49 |
| afeijo | search | 23:49 |
| afeijo | adept manager? | 23:49 |
| ActionParsnip | david__: you could try uninstalling (and purging) ark, then reinstalling it | 23:50 |
| xjjk | afeijo: I think so | 23:50 |
| david__ | ActionParsnip how would i do that? | 23:50 |
| afeijo | I think I found that screen, what to set there? | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | david__: its not something i use personally but at least you can use your file, and troubleshoot ark when you get time | 23:51 |
| aziz | never mind guys, I resized the partition a few times, it finally works. | 23:51 |
| xjjk | afeijo: do you see settings for software sources | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | david__: sudo apt-get --purge remove ark; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get install ark | 23:51 |
| afeijo | yes | 23:51 |
| afeijo | I have 4/5 checkboxes enabled | 23:52 |
| xjjk | afeijo: go there, and look for enabling something called hardy-backports and hardy-proposed | 23:52 |
| xjjk | afeijo: I think it's under the "Updates" tab | 23:52 |
| xjjk | afeijo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu | 23:52 |
| xjjk | the Kubuntu tool is identical to the Ubuntu one AFAIK | 23:52 |
| afeijo | yes I have main, restricted, universe and multiverse | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | just add the repo to the text file | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | so much easier | 23:53 |
| xjjk | ActionParsnip: honestly, it's not | 23:53 |
| xjjk | how does he know the syntax | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | xjjk: its exactly the same as what he's going to paste into the repo adder | 23:54 |
| xjjk | ActionParsnip: he's not adding a repository, he's adding a distribution | 23:54 |
| xjjk | afeijo: http://pastebin.com/d19f252e8 | 23:54 |
| xjjk | use that as your new sources.list | 23:54 |
| xjjk | sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude install usb-creator | 23:54 |
| afeijo | updating | 23:55 |
| ActionParsnip | adding a distribution? | 23:55 |
| xjjk | afeijo: blah, forgot a line... | 23:56 |
| xjjk | afeijo: use this: http://pastebin.com/d2e91cefe | 23:56 |
| xjjk | afeijo: the problem here is that usb-creator was released *after* hardy was released | 23:56 |
| ActionParsnip | oh i get it now | 23:56 |
| xjjk | because of that, you have to go through these hoops to get it | 23:57 |
| xjjk | but really, the hoops are only clicking 2 or 3 checkboxes | 23:57 |
| xjjk | or updating this file (that is, if you know how to edit it) | 23:57 |
| afeijo | omg, I think it will work now | 23:57 |
| afeijo | AMEM | 23:58 |
| afeijo | thanks A LOT xjjk | 23:58 |
| xjjk | afeijo: sorry this was so convolted | 23:58 |
| xjjk | apparently kubuntu's documentation isn't very complete | 23:58 |
| afeijo | it was fun and I learned a few more things :) | 23:58 |
| xjjk | and there are a LOT of howto's that make you do too many steps | 23:58 |
| xjjk | and make things more difficult than they are | 23:58 |
